Newlyweds win ‘Super’ big
Ben Watanabe / The Record
Amanda and Chris Peters beam with excitement a few days before flying to New York City. They won tickets to Super Bowl 48 at the Goose.
Clinton couple heads to Super Bowl 48 with all-expenses-paid trip By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Newlywed Clinton residents Amanda and Chris Peters are now Super Bowl-bound Seattle Seahawks fans. They recently won tickets to the coveted game after entering their names into a drawing at the Goose Community Grocer nearly five months ago. To hear Chris tell the story of how an all-expenses-paid
trip was won is to hear the story of Chris and Amanda working hard, rooting for the Seahawks, and a lifetime of football fandom. Cheering the Seahawks has been a Peters family pastime for decades and became especially important after former NFL wide receiver Jeff Chadwick visited Peters’ father following his diagnosis of leukemia. Chadwick gave him a football signed by many players on the 1991 team, a prized possession
of Peters’. His dad died many years ago, but the legacy of rooting for Seattle continued, and Chris could not help but wonder if some supernatural or divine work was at hand. “Is my dad the reason I get to go to the Super Bowl?” Chris asked. “I’ll never know, but that’s what I’m thinking.” Eventually, Seahawks fever spread to Amanda, especially SEE SUPER BOWL, A15
8th graders learn amongst the trees By CELESTE ERICKSON South Whidbey Record Chairs were replaced by logs, desks by laps and textbooks by the real thing — nature. Students went beyond the controlled environment of a typical classroom and into the forest this week. Langley Middle School eighth grad-
ers enjoyed a day at South Whidbey State Park as part of a weeks-long learning project on local history. Four groups of about 30 students visited the park each day last week to learn and be inspired. The trip aimed to connect students to the park and show they are part of it as well, said Susie Richards, co-director of Service, Education & Adventure
(SEA). “Our belief is that the most important way to learn is with hands-on, direct experience,” she added. The field trip was a collaboration among several non-profit organizations including SEA, South Whidbey Schools Foundation and Friends of SEE PARK, A14

Notable
Children’s Theater hosts hundreds for performance
Celeste Erickson / The Record
Young actors in Whidbey Children’s Theater’s “Disney’s 101 Dalmatians” run through a dress rehearsal in front of elementary school students Thursday, Jan. 30. The field trip aimed to expose students to theater arts as part of a collaboration between the school district and the children’s theater, which leases the middle school auditorium.
Whidbey Children’s Theater was at capacity Thursday, Jan. 30 as they hosted nearly 500 students from South Whidbey Elementary School, South Whidbey Academy and the Whidbey Island Waldorf School. Students ranging from the first to fifth grade watched scenes from “Disney’s 101 Dalmatians” during a dress rehearsal at the theater. Students were able to ask questions of both the director, Lisa Nakama, and the 27-member cast at the end. The field trip was part of the collaboration between the children’s theater and South Whidbey School District to provide in-kind donations for students. This was the second performance in the new theater space on Camano Avenue for WCT. Cait Cassee, executive director of the children’s theater, said the first field trip was a learning experience. Getting each class transported and
into the theater was a challenge, but it is her goal to showcase more performances in the future. She hopes to pair age groups of the actors so they can perform in front of their peers. Cassee said this is also a good opportunity for students who have never been in theater productions to learn. By showcasing a dress rehearsal and not a full performance, she hopes children can see performing is not unlike playing soccer or other sports. “The dress rehearsal is collaborative,” she added. Cassee aims to host more field trips after the success of the first. “It’s an exciting opportunity for kids to take in the theater,” Cassee said. This is the final weekend for the play at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 1, at Whidbey Children’s Theater, 723 Camano Ave., Langley.

Building, real estate community pressures county to re-open Fridays By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record Builders and real estate brokers are pressuring the county to reopen county offices on Fridays, calling the policy “devastating” to their industries. Island County commissioners decided to revise office hours in December 2009 to give employees extra time to finish work after deep budget cuts had reduced staff. The closure of the planning department has been particularly troublesome to real estate brokers and builders who experience a domino effect of delays as the result of an unissued permit. Windermere broker Leanne Finlay said the Friday closures have been “devastating” to the local real estate and building markets. “Any income-producing office should be open ASAP,” Finlay said. “My biggest beef is it affects the real estate and building markets quite heavily. It’s not that these guys aren’t working hard, they just don’t
Hurt hiker saved by NAS team An injured hiker on Mount Baker was rescued by Naval Air Station Whidbey Island’s Search and Rescue team Saturday, the U.S. Navy has announced. The 24-year-old man fell from a height of 100 feet and suffered chest injuries. He became the elite unit’s first rescue of 2014, according to a Wednesday news release. Low visibility early Saturday prevented the Navy team from launching until late Sunday morning. By that time, the Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office had located the severely injured hiker at an altitude of 4,500 feet.

Once the MH-60S Knighthawk’s crew of five was in the vicinity, sheriff’s department personnel on the ground helped guide the helicopter to the scene. “The ground party gained visual contact on us and was able to vector us directly to their position,” said Lt. Cmdr. Douglas Lof, helicopter aircraft commander, who spotted them on the second pass. Once in a hover, Hospital Corpsman 2nd Class Wayne

But as of now, she doesn’t have the votes to support re-opening the offices. “The pressure is there,” Johnson said. “And there’s a desire to serve the community, but there’s a nervousness that it won’t be sustainable.” Over the past few years, the county has been slowly recovering from deep budget cuts resulting from the last economic recession. While the county has made some progress in rebuilding, Johnson said that it’s somewhat of a “slow process of how you put it back together.” Commissioner Kelly Emerson has been vocally against reopening the offices on Fridays because of the cost, which would include hiring additional staff. Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said she’s “not opposed to the idea” of reopening the offices,

but she remains cautious. “I have concerns about the sustainability,” Price Johnson said. “Costs keep rising and revenues are not. I’m concerned about making a commitment to the community that we can’t support long term.” Price Johnson said she’s more inclined to invest in online resources that would keep costs down, but allow for accessibility seven days a week. The commissioners have agreed to revisit the issue after the first quarter numbers are reported in the spring. The current office hours are Monday through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The change didn’t affect the county’s Law and Justice Building, which includes the courts, the sheriff’s office and the prosecutor’s office. Those offices must remain open under state law. While hours vary across the state, Island County is one of only a few counties to have closed offices on Fridays.

FIRE/EMS Boat accepted with conditions South Whidbey Fire/ EMS has conditionally accepted a nearly $500,000 marine response vessel from Freeland manufacturer North Cross Aluminum. Chief Rusty Palmer said the district took possession of the 32-foot catamaran, built for fire suppression and marine emergencies, Thursday
12 TH
night. But the acceptance of the vessel, delayed nearly a month, came with stipulations. The district had a punch list of 50 items Palmer called “relatively easy to fix” that had to be addressed within the next couple of weeks for the first-time boat building company to receive final payment. “This will allow us to cut the check for final payment, get the documentation together for the Port (of South Whidbey), and hold final payment until completion of the punch list,” Palmer said. Most of the funding came from a joint Port of South Whidbey-South Whidbey Fire/EMS grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The FEMA grant paid for $350,000 of the boat’s roughly $480,000 expense. Commissioners were scheduled to meet at noon Friday to discuss the boat’s final payment and its acceptance by the fire district. Originally, the boat was to be completed by Dec. 31, 2013. But that deadline was missed for several reasons, most notably a major injury to the project’s lead sustained in a motorcycle collision this past summer. Problems

Late penalty fees of $400 per day may be assessed for every day the boat was officially late, starting Jan. 6. The commissioners hold the authority to withhold nearly $10,000 from North Cross Aluminum. “It’s within the board’s prerogative to levy that,” Palmer said. “I think it’s pretty clearly black and white. It was not delivered on those dates (originally scheduled).”

Funicular gets tacit Council of Governments go-ahead By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Langley’s plan to move people up and down the Camano Avenue bluff got another nod in the right direction for a funding windfall. Langley city leaders hope to get nearly $268,000 out of a county Rural Economic Grant request. The Island County Council of Governments recommended the city’s plan for either a funicular or an elevator at its last meeting Jan. 22. “We believe they both serve the same purpose,” Langley Director of Community Planning Jeff Arango said. The previous plan was for a funicular, a track-mounted cart facing toward Saratoga Passage. Getting people and their belongings, which city council members envision as shopping bags, from the city’s downtown core to the marina was the impetus for the funicular. “At this point, we are still favoring the funicular, though we are listen-

by the city. In addition to overseeing capital project art, the commission would establish a public art program to plan, design, fund and implement installations in the city.
Acting LPD chief gets extension Dave Marks has at least a few more days as the acting chief of the Langley Police Department. After several years as an officer with city law enforcement, Marks was appointed as the acting chief in August when former chief Randy Heston retired.

As Wharf Street, the road that connects First Street to the South Whidbey Harbor boat marina, has changed in recent years, so has the bluff transit plan. One key property, Drake’s Landing, went through a
second meeting of the month. Mayor Fred McCarthy said extending Marks’ contract as the acting chief was necessary while the city continues to evaluate the size of its police force and looks for a new police chief. “Legally, we need to have an acting appointed chief,” McCarthy said. The mayor said Marks would present his study of the Langley Police Department’s staffing to the city council at the Feb. 18 meeting. Since Heston’s retirement, the police have worked on a three-officer rotation, including Marks. Heston successfully requested a staff increase for the 2013 budget for three full-time officers and a chief after 2012 had high overtime and reserve officer expenses. McCarthy said he would make a recom-

change of ownership and options to purchase, with each listening to the city’s interest in a means of transportation from the water to the city. Now the favored option is a publicprivate partnership for a bridge and elevator. The bridge would reach out from Cascade Avenue to an elevator platform atop the Drake’s Landing
mendation to the city council about whether to keep the police force at three officers or increase it to four, which was budgeted for this year. The mayor received the study from Marks on Thursday and declined to say what his recommendation will be. “I’m not prepared to do that right now,” McCarthy said. Once the city council reviews the study, it will have the option to go forward with staffing at the budgeted four officers, or keeping it as is with three. With the size determined, then the city will post the job opening for the chief’s position.
property. Schell, owner of the Inn at Langley, has an option to buy the property and proposed a building that would keep the basic Drake’s structure. A cafe, two levels of residences, and an elevator that runs from the ground level up to the bridge platform are included in the design. Schell first proposed the idea at a Port of South Whidbey commissioners meeting in April 2013. At the time, he estimated the cost of the elevator and viewing platform at $240,000, less than the estimated $250,000 funicular. Back in 2012, the city was awarded $232,000 to widen Wharf Street, but that plan was scrapped in favor of creating a way for people to get up the steep hill with greater ease. Langley may have up to $500,000 in grant funding for work on the elevator or funicular project. McCarthy estimated the total cost at about $877,000. “We believe $500,000 will cover the city’s costs,” Arango said.
PORT Surveillance cameras go live Say cheese next time you visit a Port of South Whidbey boat launch. Feeds from three surveillance cameras went live on the port’s website Wednesday, Jan. 29. The live streams come from three locations: South Whidbey Harbor, Bush Point and Possession Beach and refreshes about every five seconds. Eight cameras in total were installed throughout port properties. The project was approved in Sept. 2013
Either option would prominently display the landscape that Langley enjoys. Glass doors would face east, looking out toward the Cascade Mountains and Saratoga Passage, on both the elevator and the funicular, as well as the viewing platform. “Views would be a major part of that proposal as well,” Arango said. Should the elevator plan fizzle, Arango said the funicular could not be simply moved along the bluff to a different location. The Wharf Street property is a rare commodity, and a different location would also require partnering with a different property owner or the port for space to land passengers, he said. “Essentially, we need a partner to be able to pull this project off,” Arango said. “I think the Drake is more of an ideal location.” Work, however, would likely not begin until 2015. The city will present the project again at an Island County Commissioners meeting either Feb. 12 or Feb. 19.
and funded by a FEMA grant of $65,000 to provide surveillance of the properties and waters. The project also aims to help boaters check conditions of the boat launches. “I’m so excited,” said Port Finance Manager

Publisher’s column
A newspaper is a historical record By KEVEN GRAVES
With every edition of the South Whidbey Record, events are recorded for posterity. On a regular basis, as I unlock my office door, there is someone poring through archives of Whidbey’s newspapers, furiously taking notes. At times I fear it is forgotten — even by those of us in the newspaper business — that our responsibility goes beyond reporting the news
of the day. In 1999, when I became the publisher of the newspaper in Yelm, I was horrified to learn that, several years earlier, as the sale of the newspaper was taking place, the previous owner opened his doors and invited the community to come in and take whatever photographs they wanted. Essentially, local history accumulated over nearly eight decades was scattered to the wind. I spent the next 13 years trying to locate some of that history and share it with the community by seeking photos to publish in the newspaper. Some photos undoubtedly fell into private collections. Others went to the local museum. While a museum will certainly preserve that history, it was a small organization run by volunteers. There was nobody dedicated to locating or identifying old photos, or who could regularly work with the newspaper to share them with the community. One of my objectives as publisher of the Whidbey News Group — the South Whidbey Record, Whidbey News-Times and Whidbey Examiner — is to bring local history to life within the pages of our newspapers. After posting some historical photos on the Whidbey News-Times Facebook page, it quickly became apparent people wanted to see more. I believe such interest would be shared by readers of all three newspapers, and that there are countless other photos out there that will help tell the story of our island communities. If you have photos from the 1960s and earlier that you believe others would like to see, please email me at kgraves@whidbeynewsgroup.com Let’s work together to bring local history to the pages of your community newspaper.

Take a lesson from the Swedes Editor, Having just returned from a month-long stay at our other home in Sweden where we have real health care — a system where citizens pay no out-of-pocket expenses — among many more benefits of a social democratic society, we might share a few ideas about meaningful freedom, respect and responsibility. While we are sometimes a little bit daunted by the influx of so many foreigners in what was previously a blond and blue-eyed society, it is really remarkable how open the Swedes are to sharing the good life
with less fortunate people. Foreigners are offered refuge from warlords and quasi-religious fanatics, and not without considerable consequences, but they are not at all bitter about the sacrifices they have to make in order to accomplish this greater humanitarian sharing responsibility. On the other hand, here at home, in the otherwise bucolic tranquility of our privileged South Whidbey community, some of our less generous — or might we say less civilized — neighbors continue to be obsessed with their private property. For example: In Sweden, it is unlawful for owners to prohibit people from traversing natural trails through or even camping upon private property, simply because
someone owns it, but here in the so-called land of the free and home of the brave, one might actually be arrested or even shot for trespassing private property. Think about that and ask yourself if we might learn something about sharing. Let’s hope so. SIV and RJ HACKELING Clinton and Langley

with hard work, long days and nights, commitment and pure love. I met Ivan at the Caregiver Support Group at Bayview Center in 2001. Not much later, I was able to spend time with Sarah after Ivan brought her into our Time Together family, also at Bayview. I watched her change over the next eight years and she never ceased to amaze me with her grace, her humor and delight in laughter. She loved music, dancing, art and just having fun with the people around her. I was honored and blessed to have her in my life, as many others were. Ivan lovingly shares Sarah’s life with us through art. He continues to work with the Alzheimer’s association and other groups to talk about what he learned about the life of a caregiver. We all have gifts to share in this life. Thank you Ivan and Sarah for sharing your incredible gifts of beautiful and meaningful art with us.

Bless the caregivers among us. TERI HAGSTROM Clinton

Dog owners need to control canines Editor, Several weeks ago a gentleman wrote in to decry the behavior of dogs at local offleash dog parks. Then a week or so later the owner of the dog that allegedly lunged at the original gentleman wrote in to explain that his dog was friendly and in no way would

have hurt anyone. As a dog owner myself, I have spent a fair amount of time training my dog for obedience and retrieving. She is trained to a whistle and some hand signals. However I am always careful to make sure that she does not approach anyone, even at an off-leash park. Some of the things I have noticed about the owners of dogs that are off leash are: Most do not have adequate control of their dog; most do not understand dog behavior; and most are seemingly unaware that there are people in this world who do not like dogs approaching them, and could even be afraid of dogs. There is an old expression that “self-discipline is the essence of freedom.” We should couple that with a concept of our society that our freedoms do not include the right to infringe on the freedoms of others. We should then apply those to dog parks. We as dog owners should have the self-discipline to maintain good control over our dogs and keep them away from other people unless those people encourage our dog to approach. If we fail to do that, even in an off-leash dog park, we will eventually lose the freedom to unleash our dog there. I always thought these two concepts were just common sense. However the longer I live the more I realize that they are almost forgotten concepts in today’s society. CLAYTON CANFIELD Langley

distinction to live on the only street in the city that remains neither graded nor paved, and riddled with potholes. I have brought this to the attention of the public works director as well as the Langley City Council. Until recently, my husband Bob mowed the lengthy portion of the city-owned property bordering the street side of our fence to keep the dandelions under control. Now this invasive vegetation flourishes as I am physically unable to manage this task. In fact, when guests arrive they step into the weeds on the street before stepping onto my walkway. I’m excited to see the progress being made in downtown Langley’s Second Street, and I am equally excited that the city’s Public Works Department has taken the initiative to put the resurfacing of Island View Lane on the “2014 Capital Plan.” Hopefully the work is completed before the summer dust clogs our lungs.

Minimum wage increase is awful Editor, To Congressmen Larsen: Increasing the minimum wage is the worst thing you could do to an economy struggling to gain traction and recover. What absolutely slays me is supporters of an increased minimum wage’s inability to answer this simple question: If raising the minimum wage to $15 per hour won’t harm employers and is good for business, why don’t we just make the minimum wage $40 per hour, or $100 per hour for that matter? Like
so many other positions you take, you have this one dead wrong. Requiring a business to pay for a low-skill job what it could otherwise outsource or automate will result in increased unemployment among youth, minorities, elderly, and disabled. Your argument that there are too many college graduates working for minimum wage demonstrates this truth. Despite all your bailouts and social engineering, you, Obama, and the U.S. Senate have done nothing but harm our economy and reduce the number of good quality jobs, replacing the once heralded American work ethic with American apathy and dependence. These actions will continue to put more people into poverty with far fewer people proudly earning their way to prosperity. What’s worse, minimum wage harms the poor most of all. A low skill, low wage position was once viewed as a foot in the door, an opportunity for a young or inexperienced worker to get a start. Now it is treated as a career path and, like all the other entitlement programs, does nothing but undermine the value of hard work and destroy an individual’s chance at upward mobility. You’ve incentivized the wrong behavior under the guise of fairness and equality. Rather than providing an environment in which individuals at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder have a chance to climb to the next rung, you’ve made it just comfortable enough for them to remain at the bottom, knowing that a voter with their hand out to you is a voter you control. With King Obama in office, you may actually succeed in getting this through, but like

Animals
Avoiding animal was right action Editor, I’m writing regarding the story you ran on the front page of the Jan. 29 edition, about the FedEx driver who hit a power pole. I want to express my sincere gratitude to her for opting to swerve and hit a power pole instead of an animal. I know it cost people money, the cost of the pole and the repair of the truck, among others. But they can be repaired, unlike an animal, who would most likely have been killed. Too many people in this world undervalue the life of an animal and it’s refreshing to find that someone has put a life before that of an object. I realize that this is not always possible. I also realize that there are times that it is, but not done due to low regard for animal life. I only ask that we all learn to be more aware of the possibility of animals on the road and drive accordingly. Thank you. LINDA HAUSER Langley

Falcons fend off Wolves' rally By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Another notable chapter was added to the longstanding island rivalry between South Whidbey and Coupeville boys basketball teams Tuesday night. South Whidbey won 62-51 after a late-game scare. Coupeville rallied from a 20-point deficit to within five points in the final three minutes. The Falcons found their footing and converted their final six free throws — salvaging an otherwise poor free throw shooting night for South Whidbey, which hit 11 of 21 — as the Wolves tried to stop the clock with fouls. “It was stressful, but that felt good,” said Falcon senior CJ Sutfin. Winning the rivalry game secured South Whidbey’s playoff berth and was made even sweeter, literally, when a cake was brought out afterward to celebrate Sutfin’s 18th birthday. However, the cake came after a whipped cream pie was tossed in his face at center court. “It tasted good, so that’s what I’m happy about,” said Sutfin, who scored nine points in the contest, all in the first half. Not everything was sugar and spice and other things nice. It was a rivalry game with playoffs on the line, and play was physical. Players were fouled, hard at times, hitting the court back first. Sutfin was assessed a technical foul in the third quarter after complaining to a referee for a perceived missed call. The ensuing free throws brought Coupeville (1-10 Cascade Conference, 2-13 overall) within 10 points of the lead to end the period. “In the end, we just slacked a little bit,” Sutfin said. “We were too confident.” It was the first of what would be two technical fouls called on Falcon players. The other came as Coupeville was charging back from a doubledigit deficit late in the game. Falcon junior Chandler Sutton was whistled for the foul with 1:30 left in the game and South Whidbey ahead 56-49. Sutton drove to the rim, through some contact from the Wolves, and missed his shot. As he came down, he appeared to say something at the game official and was immediately given the

Coupeville girls bounce back from deficit, secure playoff spot By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
Coupeville secured a District 1 playoff berth at the expense of its rival, the South Whidbey girls basketball team, 48-38 Tuesday night. The Wolves broke free after 11 ties in the third quarter. Behind a smothering defense, Coupeville surged ahead in the final minute to a 10-point lead and a victory that guaranteed the Wolves would see a playoff game. South Whidbey led 20-18 at the halftime break. Moving the ball along the perimeter and better passing lifted the Falcons early. They hit shots from the baseline, inside the key on cuts, and mid-range jumpers. They were also flustered a couple of times which led to two first-quarter shot clock violations. The Falcons’ largest lead came on a short jumper by senior Madi Boyd, who scored a game-high 11 points. Earlier, Falcon freshman Kacie Hanson led the way with five points in the first two periods, including one three-point basket. But Coupeville closed the gap on its first possession of the third quarter, a short jump shot by Kacie Kiel.
Fighting for the playoffs, South Whidbey regained the lead late in the third quarter. Megan Drake, a freshman, took a bounce pass from Marina Alber as she cut to the basket for a quick layup. After the play, Wolves head coach David King was whistled for a technical foul, giving Hanson a pair of free throws, of which she made one, for a three-point swing in South Whidbey’s favor. Drake turned the next possession into another layup for a 33-28 lead. Coupeville broke out in the fourth quarter for 20 points, largely sparked by turnovers on defense and quick layups. The Falcons found themselves reeling and suddenly tied with the Wolves at 34-34, the last tie of the game. From there, the Wolves grabbed six steals that led to five points in the final five minutes. As Coupeville crawled back, South Whidbey fell behind, missing shots and losing the ball. Losing to Coupeville, one of three 1A schools in the Cascade Conference, eliminated South Whidbey from the 1A District 1 tournament. The Falcons (1-9 Cascade Conference, 2-14 overall) have three games left in their season following Friday’s contest with Lakewood.

Anna E. Primavera
Anna E. Primavera
Anna Primavera peacefully passed away early Thursday morning, Jan. 23, 2014. Her family was by her side. The long-time Langley resident and business woman died from complications of a stroke suffered the day after Christmas. Anna was born May 19, 1917. Her parents, Marie and Pete Peters, met and were married in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. Their Mennonite families had migrated from Minnesota and South Dakota to homestead. When Anna was three, she and her parents moved to Bakersfield, Calif. Their family grew as sisters Louise, Francis, and June were born. At 17, Anna had moved 17 times. This was a sign of the times, the Depression, and her father’s search for something better. The next planned move was north to Orcas Island. Arriving in Seattle, they learned Orcas had no electricity. Mother Marie had a wringer washing machine. Hearing Whidbey had power, Pete and Marie drove up to see the island. In 1934 the Peters family moved to South Whidbey. Anna graduated from Langley High School in 1936. She worked at the Tiemeyers Bakery in Langley. The bakery was next to Primaveras’ Star Store. One of young Victor Primavera’s chores was to pick up the bread Tiemeyers baked for the Star Store to sell. Victor and Anna were
WWW.SOUTHWHIDBEYRECORD.COM
married in 1938. Daughters Joanne and Janet were born in the apartment above the store. Anna took care of her growing family. She worked in the store. Loving flowers, Anna planted sweet peas on the store’s south side along McLeod Alley. Nina and Joe were born in Coupeville at Polly Harpole’s Maternity Home. After the war, the Primaveras moved just outside Langley on Saratoga Road. They bought the Strawbridge Farm. Anna continued to work in the store and raise her family. She was a Campfire Girl leader and Cub Scout den mother, Sunday School teacher, seamstress, gardener, chicken-head lopper, and handicrafter extraordinaire. Anna made sure her children had good childhoods and a good home. Selling the farm, ‘Ann and Vic’ built their new home on Third Street overlooking Langley. They sold the store in 1977. They were able to travel and enjoy their lives together until Victor died of prostate cancer in 1985. Anna continued to live in the family home. She loved watching, through the days and years, the comings and goings of the folks in Langley. She liked her daily walks downtown, going to get the mail, visiting with friends and buying sesame treats at the Star Store. Anna is survived by her three children Joanne, Nina, and Joe; her son-in-law Greg; and her many grand and great-grandchildren and their spouses. Preceding her in death was her husband, Victor, her youngest sister Marion, and her beloved daughter Janet. At her request, we will have a graveside service attended only by her family. On a day this Spring, near her birthday, there will be a reception held for Anna. We will celebrate a life well lived, remember her smile and honor the most wonderful Mother one could ever wish for. In lieu of flowers, please donate in memory of Anna Primavera to the Langley

Susan Mulliner Considine
A vivacious woman who loved laughter, the beauty of nature, the comfort of home, Johnny Walker Red, barbecues, close friends, her family, her dogs, “scootering” around the island, and most of all her life, Sue Considine died from cancer Nov. 24, 2013 at Enso House on Whidbey Island in Washington State. She had been fighting the disease for a year and a half; she died the day after her birthday. Since 2006, Sue had divided her time between homes on Whidbey Island and her long-time residence in Long Beach, Calif. She was the eldest child of Joy and Reginald Mulliner, born in 1945 in the village of Caterham in Surrey, England. It was a pastoral childhood but not an easy one. Sue almost died from pleurisy when she was seven; her father, a pilot, lost his life in a plane crash when she
was 12. Boarding school, as it turned out, was not her cup of tea. When she was 16, Sue attended a secretarial school in London, and the following year she embarked on an enormously successful and lifelong career in the airline industry. When asked what she did, Sue liked to say, “I was a corporate slave,” but she always made it clear that she loved her work. She took her first job, at British Caledonia Airways, in London, just at the point when the airline industry was making its transition from reservation cards to mainframe computers, and Sue mastered the new technology. It became her responsibility to train reservation clerks from numerous airlines. In 1973, she moved to the U.S. and joined Continental Airlines as Customer Service Coordinator in the SHARES Service Center, which supported multiple airlines. When Sue retired, in 2005, she was a director for the Electronic Data Systems (EDS) SHARES department, working out of Los Angeles. Being in the travel industry helped Sue to indulge her penchant for being in natural wildlife areas; at various times, she traveled to Alaska, Australia, South Africa and the Galapagos Islands. Even when she was at home, Sue was often on the move. She always had a dog — she once said she couldn’t imagine living without a dog — and that meant she went on daily nature walks. She was also a birder, artist, writer, gardener, kayaker, beachcomber, crabber and fisherwoman and an avid fan of sunsets and shooting stars. Her love of nature was the impetus for Sue to serve

She and her husband, along with their five children, moved to Clinton on Whidbey Island in 1967. She was a devoted wife and mother who loved singing, cooking, baking, canning and sewing. She was an active member of their parish, St. Hubert Catholic Church in Langley. She was also the founding director of the Pregnancy Aid Center on South Whidbey where she devoted eight years to helping women in crisis pregnancies.

It’s all part of the long rehearsal process for the cast and crew members involved in one of Whidbey Island Center for the Arts’ largest theatre productions, “City of Angels.” Creating the Tony-award winning show has been one of director Elizabeth
Herbert’s biggest endeavors. With a cast and crew totaling more than 40 members, Herbert uses every part of the theatre in the show. She aims to have elements constantly moving from the stage itself to above and even within the audience. “There are so many little parts, it’s incredible,” she said. “City of Angels” features big-band jazz music under the direction of Sheila Weidendorf, choreography by Chelsea Randall and Dwight Zehm works as the

tions of the stage rotating to reveal a new scene. The play takes place in 1948 in the captivating world of Hollywood and follows a budding novelist named Stine, played by Bob Atkinson. Stine tirelessly works to write a screenplay for a hotshot movie producer. The working screenplay is acted out in a parallel plot depicted through the blackand-white film noir setting on the right side of the stage. Actors double their roles in both sections of the play. Herbert said she intentionally cast such a large group because she likes seeing action in the background — similar to a movie — because it enhances the show. Herbert also put a lot of effort into the details of the production. She, along with a few of the actors, poured over black-and-white films to study everything from the Mid-Atlantic dialect to props of the time.

“It’s a really collaborative effort with a lot of energy,” she said. Each set is filled with antique props from the time period, including staplers, cigar cutters and microphones. Atkinson, a lead actor, spearheaded the prop gathering effort for the production, which he described as a scavenger hunt. “I have a very active Amazon and Ebay account,” he said. Atkinson has performed with WICA several times, but said this is one of his most challenging roles yet. With four songs, two solos and more than 25,000 words to memorize, Atkinson’s nerves are beginning to rattle a bit. “It’s daunting and intimidating,” he added.

The main cast also includes Jim Carroll, Jim Castaneda, Karla Crouch, Deana Duncan, Gabe Harshman, Mikkel Hustad, Lars Larson, Savannah Randall, Ryan Saenz, Tristan A.B. Steel and Carrie Whitney. Christina Parker, member of the ensemble cast, is thrilled to work with Herbert again in a production. Her last performance was in Herbert’s “The Full Monty” last year. “I love the collaboration of Sheila and Elizabeth, they’re a marvelous team,” she said. Parker also added she enjoys being part of such a large cast because of the different generations involved — including her daughter Sarah. “It’s very fun to do this as a family,” she said. Parker first joined theatre productions because of her daughter’s own commitment to the stage. Sarah, 15, has been acting since age 5 through WICA and Whidbey Children’s Theater and has fallen in love with every part of a production, from acting to stage lighting. She began working backstage in the seventh grade as part of an internship. “Before that I thought I knew everything about theater,” Sarah said. “Then I went backstage. It’s a completely different world with a headset on — a different world no one gets to see.”

Oak Harbor Kmart slated for closure in late April By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record Oak Harbor’s Kmart store will close its doors for good in late April, according to a company spokesman. Howard Riefs, director of corporate communications for Sears Holding Corp., said a total of 68 employees, mostly part-time and hourly, will lose their jobs. And another commercial property will sit empty in the city. Thursday, a steady stream of customers went in and out of Kmart despite the rain. Many of them lamented the fate of the city’s first big-box store, built in 1988. Katie Cornes said her family just transferred from Southern California, where a lot of Kmarts have already closed. She said the fate of the Oak Harbor store is simply sad. “It’s different,” she said. “I don’t like to always go to the same store.” Kathy Reed, director of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce, said her biggest concern is about the people who will lose their jobs. She hopes another business will fill the space as quickly as possible and replace the lost positions. In addition, fewer shopping

“We want shopping dollars to stay on Whidbey Island,” she said. Reed said Oak Harbor, like many communities, has had an inordi-
nate number of businesses close in recent years. The lot of the old Ford dealership remains empty, the Whidbey Furniture building
is deserted and several buildings downtown are vacant — including the large property of the former Armed Services YMCA. Kmart Corporation owns the 89,000-square-foot building and the 1.48 acres is sits on; the assessed value is $925,000, according to the Island County Assessor’s website. Riefs didn’t say what, if anything, the company plans to do with the property. Riefs wrote that the store will remain open for customers until late April. The store will begin its liquidation sale Feb. 9. He said “eligible” employees will receive severance and have the opportunity to apply for open positions at area Sears or Kmart stores. Sears Holdings Corp., the parent company of Sears and Kmart, announced in 2011 that at least 100 stores would be closed due to declining sales. “Store closures are part of a series of actions we’re taking to reduce ongoing expenses, adjust our asset base, and accelerate the transformation of our business model,” Riefs wrote. “These actions will better enable us to focus our investments on serving our customers and members through integrated retail — at the store, online and in the home.”
Island county brokers present new noise disclosure By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record Coupeville resident Judy Gremmel was on a mission in recent months to raise awareness about what she calls the “pathetic” jet noise disclosure given to homebuyers over the past decade or longer. Gremmel was in constant
contact with Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Island County commissioners, state legislators and news outlets throughout the region claiming that residents were “trapped, not told.” In response to criticism by residents such as Gremmel, as well as county leadership, Island County real estate bro-

kers will now use an updated, expanded jet noise disclosure form starting this week. The previous one-paragraph disclosure, Form 22W, provided to homebuyers within closing documents, came under scrutiny in the wake of complaints and a federal lawsuit filed over noise produced by the Navy’s new EA-18G Growler. Gremmel, who assisted in the creation of a new blog entitled, “Citizens Harmed by Disclosure Deception,” said that while the new disclosure is good news for future
homebuyers, it doesn’t help those who already purchased homes. “It’s a sad day for people who didn’t get any of this information earlier,” Gremmel said. “Now this disclosure will just make it harder to sell and get away from the noise.” The Navy is transitioning to the Growler from the EA-6B Prowler, and some residents on Central and North Whidbey claim the Growler is louder and more disruptive. The Navy, however, main-

tains that the Growler’s noise levels are comparable to the Prowler, but resonates at a different frequency. As a result, some residents, many of whom live around the Navy’s Outlying Field Coupeville, complained that they were not properly warned about jet noise levels at the time they bought their homes. Island County government staff researched the county’s noise disclosure rules in response to citizens’ questions. In December, they released a memorandum stating that Form 22W did not contain the language required in the county’s ordinances. The memorandum stated that Form 22W did not “contain both required disclosure statements, nor cite applicable county code.” Jason Joiner, govern-
ment affairs director for the Whidbey Island Association of Realtors, said his membership, once it became aware of this issue, took action to correct the problem. “We made the change in response to the memorandum,” Joiner said. “We want to be sure that the disclosure is in compliance with the law.” Updated Form 22W, which was reviewed and approved by the Northwest Multiple Listing Service, pulls language from both of Island County’s noise disclosures, one that applies to existing home sales and the other to new buildings or additions. The new document provides more detailed information about the jet noise, notifying buyers that “practice SEE DISCLOSURE, A13

Ledgewood landslide area issues, dangers linger By NATHAN WHALEN South Whidbey Record Homeowners still living near the massive landslide area in Ledgewood are wary as more pieces of the bluff continue to slough off. Ralph Young, a resident living near the landslide site, said a large piece of the bluff broke away last month. “We were concerned it’ll slide again,” Young said. Island County Public Works Director Bill Oakes said officials anticipated that more parts of the bluff would break off and that the debris field from the springtime landslide would remain unstable. The massive landslide occurred in March 2013, destroying a portion of Driftwood Way and prompting the evacuation of several nearby houses. Oakes said a final geology report concerning the landslide was completed in late 2013. That report described the incident as “unprecedented in recent history” and said it “represents one of the largest landslide events in the recorded history of the Puget Sound area.” The report, which was compiled by GeoEngineers, Inc., highlighted several factors that likely triggered

sessions are routinely scheduled during day and night periods” and a single flyover “may exceed 100 decibels.” “Property in the vicinity of Ault Field and OLF Coupeville will routinely experience significant jet aircraft noise. As a result, airport noise zones have been identified in the immediate area of Ault Field and OLF Coupeville. Jet aircraft is not, however, confined to the boundaries of those zones.” Because it is difficult to determine the exact boundaries of the noise zones and where the disclosures are required, Joiner said local brokers will be encouraged to “err on the side of informing.” The document was circulated to various agencies, organizations and government groups, Joiner said, adding that feedback is supportive of the new disclosure. “Our membership ascribes to a very strict code of ethics,” Joiner said. “The consensus is that it’s a good disclosure.” It is unclear how the previous disclosure came into common use, Joiner said, but it is the hope that this change will address community concerns.

Gremmel said she wonders why the disclosures weren’t combined back when the two disclosures were adopted in the early 1990s. “Anyone concerned about the well-being of people in the noise zones would have thought of that, but no one was concerned,” Gremmel said. “Concern must be turned off to justify ignoring the magnitude of the jet problem.” Jason McFadyen, a

While the Navy cannot dictate policy for local jurisdictions, it does “recommend a comprehensive and robust

into the slide area. The report notes that groundwater was a significant factor in the slides that were recorded in spring 2013. People living near the area are still feeling the impacts of the disaster.
To provide access to the area, Island County installed a one-lanewide access road that connects Fircrest Avenue with Driftwood Way. Residents living in the neighborhood experienced the limitations of the road last week when a fire destroyed a condemned home. Fire engines weren’t able to maneuver down the road, and smaller brush rigs had to be used to fight the blaze. After the landslide, county officials red-tagged two homes, which means they’re unsafe to enter, and yellow-tagged three others, meaning people can’t stay overnight in those homes. The report recommended those homes retain the tags through the 2013-14 winter and spring seasons. However, the homeowners could provide more studies to support a change in the status of the affected homes. A significant portion of Driftwood Way remains closed and buried under dirt, debris and fallen trees. Oakes said there aren’t any plans to repair the road. The debris field is too unstable and work won’t take place until it stabilizes, he said. The county will continue to monitor the conditions of the landslide area.

or fire remnants, they saw along the way. They also had time to write poetry, remove invasive species and ask questions of presenters, such as Sue Ellen White, poet Elizabeth Davis and State Park Ranger Kevin Leese. This was the first year students from the middle school took a trip to the state park. For 13-year-old Maitu Manupule, it was much more fun than regular field trips. “Usually we go to Langley to write, but this is way better,” he said. Manupule also enjoyed his time learning and observing at the park. “I like trees and writing in nature,” he said.
Middle school student James Hauser, 14, said the forest felt ominous with the surrounding trees and made him feel small, like an ant. “It seems so peaceful,” he said looking up at the trees. “I like it better than being in school. It’s almost like skipping a day.” Funding for the trip was provided by a $2,000 grant from the South Whidbey Schools Foundation. The money covered the cost of coordination and materials for the field trip. It was one of the largest grants distributed this year by the group. Jean Shaw, secretary of the schools foundation, was there to see the impact the trip had on students. Shaw watched students remove holly and connect with nature. She said she was impressed with their efforts to improve the park. “They’re doing something real and learning about science and nature — I love it,” she said. She added she was happy to help provide these opportunities for teachers and their students. “The state can only give so much to each school,” she said. “But there’s so much out Why there in world thatm on w athe i t to s ave will nhelp i g h t them for a be f re better e qu o te o at writing.

SUPER BOWL CONTINUED FROM A1
after they married about six months ago. These days, she’s just as committed to the “I’m in,” “Louder,” “Go Hawks” attitude that has swept Washington. While getting some groceries from the Goose Grocer in Bayview, Amanda entered both of their names into a drawing contest sponsored by SuperValu — a grocery supplier for the Goose —, the Independent Grocers Alliance (IGA), and the American Dairy Association. It was one of those boxes at the end of an aisle, the type of thing people hopelessly throw their names in and never win. “All we did was put it out on an end cap with some promotion stuff,” said Dan Hill, the store manager at the Goose, of the drawing. He estimated about 100 entries were in the Goose’s contest box. That was back in September, long before the Seahawks were NFC West champions, before Seattle beat New Orleans in a rain-soaked and windy playoff game, and before Richard Sherman deflected an end-zone pass that was intercepted to win the NFC Championship title. So when Chris got a call from a Minnesota phone number last Saturday, he ignored the message. Hours later while on the ferry to Clinton, he listened to it. He could hardly believe what he heard: his name was selected to win $1,000 toward airline tickets, a three-night hotel stay in Manhattan, and tickets to Super Bowl 48 featuring the Seattle Seahawks against the Denver Broncos. Skeptical, Peters hit “dial” as soon his fingers could swipe and touch. Except he had to leave a message and wait for what he said felt like hours, but was only about 30 minutes. In the meantime, he replayed the voicemail. “I listened to the message three times,” he said. When a SuperValu representative called back and informed Chris he was indeed going to the Super Bowl, he told her it was difficult to believe. He drove off the ferry, up to Neil’s Clover Patch where Amanda works, and sat down at a table, trying to keep his composure. When he finally told her, she was ecstatic. Amanda was quick to point out that Chris had tears in his eyes and stayed up later than normal this week, giddy like a child on Christmas Eve. “I hate to say it, but you had
tears in your eyes honey,” Amanda said, leading both of them to laugh. Despite their ample collection of Seahawks gear — even their dog has a jersey with “00” on the back — neither attended a game during this season. In fact, Amanda, a Colorado native who said her stepfather was a die-hard Broncos fan, has never been to a Seattle Seahawks football game. “To be able to take her to her first Seahawks game is unbelievable,” Chris said. Hopefully, all the excitement and adrenaline will keep them warm. Much has been made about the Super Bowl being in an open-air stadium in New Jersey in February. Weather forecasts predict a chance of snow Sunday, but the couple said they were prepared. For all the unlucky folks watching the game on TV, the Peterses said people could try to catch them with a bright green sign they made. It reads “12th man here from Whidbey Island.” They also had a little empathy for those they will temporarily leave behind this weekend. “Sorry, but we’re going to be rooting for you,” Amanda said, grinning a wide, Cheshire cat grin.

Nichols lands tug contract, extends work to 2015 By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record Nichols Brothers Boat Builders in Freeland has landed a contract that should keep the yard busy into 2015 and add about 25 jobs to the company roster. The longtime Whidbey shipbuilders penned a deal with Texas-based Kirby Offshore Marine to construct an articulation-tug barge, commonly referred to as an ATB. Rather than operating as a conventional towing vessel, these tugs connect to a specially designed barge to become a single ship. Nichols CEO Matt Nichols said this will be the first of its kind the yard has built, which is significant because it may open up new avenues for future business. “This is a new customer with a new kind of product,” Nichols said.

a series, Nichols said. But, most of those measure about 100 feet long by comparison. “It’s pretty big when you’re talking tugboats,” Nichols said. The vessel will be designed to connect to a 578-foot, 185,000-barrel capacity oil barge. The tug is expected to be based in the Puget Sound area, Nichols said. The extra workers hired to complete the job will bring the company’s employee roster up to 250 — the yard’s optimal working number. Currently the yard is working on a 23-car ferry that will service Washington and Oregon, a 150-foot landing craft, the other tugboat, three conversion/repair jobs, and a few barges. “We’ve got a pretty full load ... but I can always squeeze one more in,” Nichols said.
