Candidate fired for filing to unseat her boss

Mark Calim works on a car at his auto repair shop on North Whidbey. His business and several others are being displaced by a marijuana business, but he hopes to find another spot on Goldie Road.

New owners to bump shops for recreational marijuana biz

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

The recreational marijuana business is off to a rocky start on North Whidbey.

Mark Calim, owner of Mark’s Auto Repair on Goldie Road, said he and two fellow businesses are effectively being kicked out of their location to make way for pot-related businesses.

And they aren’t happy about it.

Four marijuana-related businesses, including two in the Oak Harbor area, made it through the state licensing process for retail pot stores so far. But neither of the proposed Oak Harbor businesses appear to be located in areas that conform to the city and county’s new marijuana zoning regulations, which will likely doom the ventures.

Consequently, the future of the pot industry in Oak Harbor remains uncertain.

Calim said he received a certified letter this past week advising him

that his rent will be increasing by more than 300 percent and he must sign a two-year lease.

His only other option is to get out within 30 days.

After he received the letter, Calim said the new owners of the property stopped by his business and told his employee that they plan to turn their building, and a number of adjacent structures, into marijuanarelated businesses.

For Calim, the situation is especially galling because he helps so many people in the community from his shop. He sometimes fixes cars for free, allows people to pay him when they can and generally helps people out of jams.

The marijuana business, by comparison, he said, seems like a fly-bynight venture.

“I don’t see how anything good can come from it,” he said.

Michael Thelen, an Oak Harbor business consultant, said he’s wor-

The election season turned a little ugly even before filing week was over.

The candidates filing period yielded a number of surprises in both county and state races — by midday Friday — not the least of which was in the race for Island County treasurer.

Wanda Grone, the Island County chief deputy treasurer, filed to run against her boss, Ana Maria Nunez, without letting her know.

Grone is a Republican and Nunez is a Democrat.

Since learning last Tuesday from the Whidbey News-Times that Grone filed against her, Nunez said she deliberated, cried and prayed over what to do.

Thursday, she fired Grone.

“The chief deputy position is one that requires loyalty. It’s someone who is the confidant of the elected official,” she said. “It’s someone I need to be able to trust.”

Nunez said that Grone’s decision to run against her and not tell her ahead of time shows that she can no longer trust her. Grone could not be reached for comment.

The chief deputy is an at-will position, which means she serves at the pleasure of the treasurer.

Nunez said she hired her from outside the county after coming into office.

On Friday afternoon, Coupeville resident Christa Canell filed to run for treasurer as a Republican. She works at Land Title and Escrow.

“Changes need to be made in that office and I feel I’m the best candidate to do that,” she said.

Farmers market season kicks off Oak Harbor’s market enters its 20th year

By MICHELLE BEAHM Staff reporter

Now entering its second decade, the Oak Harbor’s Farmers Market is continuing to offer a bounty of healthful foods and products.

The market kicked off its season Thursday, May 16.

Formerly known as the Oak Harbor Public Market, the farmers market is celebrating it’s 20th anniversary this year as a nonprofit vendor-member cooperative.

“Some of the venders have been here almost as long as the market’s been here,” said Market Manager Peg

Tennant.

Organizers require vendors to only sell products that are homegrown and handmade.

“Everything’s original,” said Niah Cortiz, who was visiting the market with her three children.

Cortiz said she is new to this area and was a first-time visitor to the Thursday market.

However, she said she has enjoyed going to farmers markets with her family for years.

“I think it’s a great experience for them to see where things are made,” she said.

Byron Burns, a relatively new vendor who started selling his Pain ReLeaf Products at the Oak Harbor market last year, said his favorite thing is the people.

“It’s a social event,” he said, “and if anything else comes about, it’s cool.”

This past Thursday’s market drew 25 vendors, according to Tennant.

“We’ll be up to 50 in no time,”

Tennant said, explaining that the market gets busier as the season progresses.

The market, she said, typically attracts more vendors and attendees after school lets out, and later in the season when more vegetables are ripe.

Sheila Case-Smith, a founding member of the market, said she has a good feeling about the future of farmers markets.

“It’s really nice that it’s become popular again to go to farmers markets and eat fresh food.”

A variety of food and produce vendors showed for the first Thursday market of the season in Oak Harbor. Market manager Peg Tennant said the market should see as many as 50 vendors in the peak of the season.

Man faces charges for Kids Fair highlights activities on island threatening family with samurai sword

By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

A 43-year-old Oak Harbor man is facing felony charges for allegedly threatening his mother and two others with a samurai sword, court documents show.

Prosecutors charged Ricardo Piloneo in Island County Superior Court May 8 with three counts of harassment, threats to kill.

Piloneo is being held in lieu of $10,000 bond. He could face up to a year in jail if convicted of the charges.

According to the police report, Piloneo was living without permission at a home on Northwest Dory Street that’s owned by his mother.

In the afternoon of May 6, the woman brought over a couple of workers to clean up the trash around the house.

Piloneo leaned out the bedroom window with a sword and screamed that he was going to kill them, according to the report by Oak Harbor Police Officer Jennifer Gravel.

He threatened to “cut up” his mother, the officer wrote.

Officers who responded to the incident found Piloneo hiding behind a neighbor’s van.

He admitted that he became angry with the workers because they had made noise and woke him, the report states.

Digging up what sort of activities are available for children can be a daunting task for parents as the summer approaches.

Two Oak Harbor residents are trying to make the process a little easier.

Oak Harbor’s first “Kids Fair” is 2-5 p.m. today, May 17, at Windjammer Park ,with representatives from more than 25 youth groups, organizations and vendors on hand to feed parents’ information about children’s activities on North Whidbey this summer and beyond.

Each group has been tasked with also offering a children’s activity. The intent of the fair, however, is to inform.

The fair’s motto is, “What’s going on this summer and beyond.”

Curtis Vieke and Amy Hannold worked together to organize the event after listening to parents’ concerns over a perceived shortage of activities for children on Whidbey.

Vieke is a community volunteer, youth sports coach and event planner. Hannold has an online calendar that offers information about

children’s events and activities on the island.

“I see it not as a void,” Vieke said. “It’s getting folks to see what there is available.”

Hannold, who has two children, said she hears all the time that there’s nothing to do for kids on Whidbey, especially for teens.

She said she’s trying to get the word out through her website and more visibly through events such as the Kids Fair.

“We want to create an annual event where families can come in a fun atmosphere and plan their summer, but where they can also connect with organizations that serve families in a variety of ways,” Hannold said.

She said vendors will be on hand representing dance teams, soccer and football clubs, the Girl Scouts of America and more.

Entertainment will be provided by magician JR Russell and puppeteer, Capt. TARA.

Whidbey genealogical societies help people investigate, share their ancestry

By MICHELLE BEAHM Staff reporter

T

here’s always a black sheep somewhere.”

So says Ruth Hancock, program chairman for the Whidbey Island Genealogical Searchers, which is known as WIGS by its members.

For her, the black sheep in her family tree is her husband’s grandfather, though everybody seemed to have different stories about him.

“He was a rum-runner,” she said, “or just weird stuff. He owned a rubber plantation in America.”

Running down such stories — both good and bad — of ancestors is part of the fun of genealogy research, though getting to the truth can be pain staking and time consuming.

Fortunately, genealogical societies are here to help.

WIGS is a genealogical society located in North Whidbey, and has about a hundred members now, according to Hancock. Another genealogy club, the Genealogical Society of South Whidbey Island, has more than 80 members, and has at times had more than 100, according to former president Laura Roetcisoender.

Roetcisoender is the beginning education instructor for the South Whidbey group, but has been both vice president and president of the club during her membership.

Her most interesting ancestor she’s found is her third great-

He was one of the reasons why she started doing genealogy.

“I was curious to see why the name was changed and when,” she said.

This ancestor, Johan Roetcisoender, née Rutischauser, was originally from Switzerland, but emigrated to the Netherlands in the 1790s, where he was told

to change his name because it “sounded too German.”

Laura Roetcisoender eventually wrote a book on her family history, “The Rutischauser/ Roetcisoender Story From Switzerland to the Netherlands to America 1562 — 1923.” This book covers her paternal ancestors back 10 generations from her.

“I’m very lucky in genealogy,”

she said. “I had a very lucky experience.”

On a research trip to Turner County, in South Dakota, Roetcisoender discovered through sheer luck that she is related to almost half the county. She discovered this through another genealogist there, who was in charge of the records of a cemetery and showed

Roetcisoender her own family tree. Roetcisoender spotted her mother on the tree and found out they were second cousins, once removed.

This is one of the reasons why Roetcisoender thinks more people should be interested in genealogy.

“I think if we know who our ancestors were and something about them, it gives us reasons to be proud of those people, think about them, who they were, what their lives were like, their families,” she said.

To Roetcisoender, genealogy is “like a mystery and a puzzle,” but finding relatives isn’t as easy as going online and using a search engine.

“The only time you can trust what’s online is if the website or individual has an actual document that proves whatever it is saying,” she said. “Without documents, all you have is mythology.”

For Hancock, her interest in SEE PAST, A5

PAST CONTINUED FROM A4 genealogy started with her grandfather, who kept a detailed family tree.

“I looked at it and I thought I saw some pieces missing,” she said. “That’s how I started. I’ve been trying to fill in the blanks ever since.”

Hancock has been interested in genealogy since before she was a teenager, and she’s been a member of WIGS since 1994.

Hancock said that more than anything else, people ask her why she does genealogy.

“They just can’t understand. That was the question they asked most often, and I tell them, well, it’s fun, it’s just so much fun,” she said. “You get so excited when you find something about your old relative.”

Both Hancock and Roetcisoender recommend joining a genealogy society for anyone interested.

“You get ideas on how to do it, where to look, different websites,” said Hancock.

Roetcisoender said that societies also help teach newcomers how to go about the research in a way that ensures the research is as accurate as possible.

The Genealogical Society of South Whidbey Island also offers classes on how to research genealogy, both a beginner and intermediate class, as well as how to use genealogical software on computers.

“We also have focus groups, we have mentors and we’re just a great, fun group,” Roetcisoender said.

Veterans were honored at the Maple Ridge Assisted Living Community on Thursday, May 8, with the first distribution of poppies this year by the Poppy Girls.

Members from the American Legion Auxiliary Post 141 were in attendance to hand out the symbol along with one of the two Poppy Girls, Krista Drechsel, who was chosen by the auxiliary.

This was the program’s first event before Memorial Day. The poppy is a symbol of freedom that has been used since the end of WWI by the American Legion Auxiliary.

The symbol was inspired by a poem called “In Flanders Fields” by Lt. Col. John McCrae in 1915.

Drechsel recited the poem “In Flanders Fields” to a small group of veterans and handed out poppies to everyone in the room. In the program, the girls meet the public and hand out poppies to support veterans.

Drechsel, 16, has been a Poppy Girl since she

was six and now attends South Whidbey Academy and South Whidbey High School. She initially joined the program because she liked volunteering and has kept going ever since. She enjoys meeting the public and hearing from veterans around the South End. The younger poppy girl is Emma Leggett, a seventh grade student at Langley Middle School. Leggett has also held the position before and enjoys meeting people and receiving donations for the poppy program.

For Drechsel, Memorial Day is a great holiday to remember what America stands for.

“It’s not just a day off from school,” she said.

Drechsel said she is looking forward to seeing everyone wear poppies and remembering veterans, both living and deceased.

Drechsel hopes to learn from this program and travel after high school. She is interested in joining the Peace Corps and learning new languages Already she’s learned

communication is key to expanding the world and learning what people can do for each other, she said.

The poppies are made by veterans around the nation and sold to local auxiliary chapters to be distributed around the community for Memorial Day, veteran’s Day and other patriotic holidays.

Donations received from the poppies go back to the veterans through programs for retirement, services and families, said Libby McCauley, American Legion Post 141 Auxiliary Re-Hab Chairman.

Last year the auxiliary distributed 3,000 poppies around the South End and raised $1,700 for the programs, which was the most raised by the group so far.

“The poppies make a full circle; made by Vets and donations back to Vets,” McCauley said.

During the event she thanked everyone for their service.

“You really were the best generation,” McCauley said.

IN OUR OPINION

Hospital board’s lack of contrition is disappointing Whidbey General Hospital commissioners faced a tough decision Monday when they voted to sell undeveloped property in Bayview.

The property was purchased by a past board years ago at a highly inflated price, without an appraisal first being done.

Bought for $2 million in 2008, the property is now valued at $595,000.

The decision to sell the land is the right one.

But the apparent lack of contrition shown by the current board is disappointing.

Board President Anne Tarrant simply remarked that the decision to buy the property was made by a past board, and the purchase price was a reflection of the market at the time.

Yes, the choice was made by a past board, and yes, property values peaked in 2007-08, but the fact remains — no appraisal was done prior to buying the land. That’s called due diligence.

Taxpayer money was spent to buy the property, and the hospital board represents the taxpayers.

Some measure of remorse, any indication that there’s been a lesson learned — that’s a reasonable expectation.

An apology from the current board, along with a promise to be better stewards of taxpayer money would help to restore some of the trust that was lost in this process.

Washington laws currently require public agencies to get three appraisals when selling property, but they are not required to obtain even one when purchasing property.

State Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, said the existing laws warrant consideration and possible legislative action. It would be a show of good faith for the hospital district — and, for that matter, all other government bodies in Island County — to ensure their policies require an appraisal before purchasing property.

Voters in the hospital district recently entrusted the hospital with $50 million for a much-needed expansion.

Such a show of faith by the voters deserves an equal show of good faith by the hospital board.

Hopefully, it’s coming sooner rather than never.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Distress signal

COER can fly flag upside down all they want Editor, The most recent Whidbey NewsTimes editorial titled, “Just because you can doesn’t mean that you should,” chastised the Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve, or COER, for flying the U.S. flag upside down at a rally intended to end landing practices at Outlying Field Coupeville and eliminate the EA-18G Growler presence on Whidbey Island.

I vehemently disagree with COER’s goals, but I also viscerally disagree with the News-Time’s editorial.

Moreover, this is not the first time the News-Times has wrong-headedly, liberally opined on issues related to the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights.

A February 2013 editorial, titled “Carrying guns: You can, but it doesn’t mean you should,” chastised local citizens for exercising their legal right to open-carry firearms when protesting the Oak Harbor City Council meeting on a related issue.

While an active duty naval flight officer, I experienced being “spot-

lighted” while in the landing pattern at OLF Coupeville, an apparent attempt to blind aircrew at night by pointing high-powered searchlights as the aircraft approaches on shortfinal for a touch-and-go. Those searchlight-wielding knuckleheads clearly crossed the line from expressing their First Amendment-protected views to actually potentially endangering others’ lives.

That group, which also apparently wanted OLF Coupeville closed, did this spotlighting as far back as the 1980s.

However, if COER truly believes that they are flying the flag with the union down as a signal of dire distress in an instance of extreme danger to life or property, they should have at it.

William Burnett Oak Harbor

Westboro comparison truly ‘unconscionable’ Editor, Just because you can write an editorial like the one in the May 14 paper doesn’t mean that you should.

First you compare the Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve to the Westboro Baptist Church, and then you say

they’re not comparable, as if that mild disclaimer could erase the image you’ve put in the mind of the reader.

Then you say displaying the flag upside-down was “unnecessarily offensive,” and you imply that it was a “sign of disrespect,” because it was “perceived” as a slap in the face of the Navy community.

You said you think COER should have taken the high road and not antagonized fellow islanders.

When you look at the letters and comments of these fellow islanders, you can’t help noticing the relish with which they mock and jeer the distress of those of us who live under the planes, and malign us with every weapon in their sick imaginations.

Scott Gray Smith and Joe Kunzler, among many others, call us antiAmerican, unpatriotic liars.

Tim Cook calls us KKK terrorists and an anti-military hate group, and has even referred to our dirty nappies.

There are more than 300 comments online at your report of the May 9 COER vigil, the vast majority vying to outdo each other in verbally abusing us.

This is the high road? These are the SEE MORE LETTERS, A7

MORE LETTERS TO THE EDITOR people you think COER ought to take pains not to antagonize?

The word “unconscionable” has been used in this controversy. Comparing COER to the Westboro Baptist Church was unconscionable, and your disclaimer that that’s not what you were doing after you did it only means you don’t want to take responsibility for having done it.

Ann Adams Oak Harbor

Editorial missed the point of the protest Editor, You have completely missed the point of COER’s vigil and the flying of the American flag upside down.

It wasn’t intended to infuriate or otherwise antagonize Navy personnel or folks who want to keep the OLF open.

It was to graphically point out to all of you how much distress the Growlers are causing the Central Whidbey community.

This is a health and safety issue.

Thirty-six U.S. Code section 176 provides: “The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.”

What more potent and obvious message could we have sent to the other side to try to get them to understand the dire distress and danger the Growlers pose to our community?

The message in opposition to COER always boils down the same way: The Oak Harbor economy is more important than the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of Central Whidbey and now, as we see, to the region at large.

Last week, 150 of your fellow citizens stood in the rain for two hours to send a message to the rest of you that that sentiment is wrong. And that was the point of the story you should have emphasized in your editorial.

Paula Spina, secretary/director Citizens of the Ebey’s Reserve

Guy who flipped bird not seeking real answers Editor, Now why would a driver going past Friday’s COER vigil aimed at moving the Growlers off Whidbey Island flip the bird at the demonstrators?

Why? Because the poor guy in that pickup fears what he has heard — maybe even read — and hence has concluded that COER doesn’t care about national security, that COER is out to close Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, that COER members are an unpatriotic cult of evil-doers that don’t know sleet from shineola.

His answer to his intellectual and informational shortfall is in his finger.

That guy would be unable to grapple with the ambiguity in the lyrics of Bob Dylan’s answer that was “Blowin’ in the Wind,” and he therefore doesn’t seek real answers that would challenge the thought processes limited only the fingers on each hand.

And he obviously was not the father of the 5-year-old at Rhododendron Park, who lay on the ground clutching his ears during a surprise practice session of Growlers at the OLF last week.

Truck fella, our kids don’t deserve birds, nor do yours?

Robert Wilbur Coupeville

High school

Grateful for memories, experiences, at CHS Editor, I am a senior who is going to graduate from high school in less than a month and there are just a few words I would like everyone to hear before I leave for college in the fall. My experience living in Coupeville has been one that has impacted me significantly and shaped me into the person I am today.

I moved here when I was going into

first grade and have been here ever since. I have met a lot of great people throughout the years I’ve lived here, and I would just like to say thank you to all the people who have helped me grow and pushed me to put all my effort into something, whether it’s on an assignment in school or during a drill during practice.

High school is one of the most memorable experience in my life and I would not have been able to get through it without the support and help from my teachers and coaches.

My teachers took many hours out of their day to help me understand an assignment and they did not stop until I was comfortable doing the assignment on my own.

Thank you for taking time after school to help me with assignments and homework. Your help made keeping my grades and GPA up easy.

As for my volleyball and basketball coaches, you guys pushed me to do the best that I physically could.

I played volleyball and basketball for all four years of high school and have enjoyed each season.

Now, for my basketball coaches, David and Amy King. I first met Amy King in seventh grade when I first started playing volleyball and then I met David King in eighth grade when I was on his SWISH basketball team. These two people have been my volleyball/basketball coaches all through high school and I couldn’t have asked for better coaches.

They are so passionate about basketball and really cared about every girl on their team. I would like to thank them for always being there for me on and off the court, believing in me and pushing me to do the best that I can and showing up to my non-league games to support me.

It meant a lot to me and I am very happy that I got to meet these people.

I would like to thank them for making such a big impact in my life.

I will miss everyone in Coupeville next year, but I am looking forward to starting a new chapter in my life.

Amanda Fabrizi Coupeville

OBITUARIES

Wilborn

Elsie & Cramer Wilborn

Elsie Margaret Hendrix Wilborn, 83, of Oak Harbor, passed away Saturday, April 6, 2013.

She was survived by her husband of 61 years, Cramer “Stretch” Wilborn.

Elsie Wilborn was born in Knoxville, Tenn., on Dec. 18, 1930, to the late David B. Hendrix and Lida Rule Hendrix. She graduated from Sevier County High School and went on to receive a bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Tennessee.

Elsie served as an OB/ GYN nurse for most her career, 15 years, at the naval hospital at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station before retiring.

She had a passionate regard for family planning services, staunchly supported women in having a voice in family planning and a decisive voice in their health.

Elsie went back to school in Newark, N.J., in the early 1970s to become one of the country’s first nurse practitioners, pioneering new territory between the roles of doctor and nurse in the treatment of patients and in family planning services.

She was married 61 years to Cramer “Stretch” Wilborn, who recently passed away on March 27, 2014.

She is survived by her four children, Michael Kay Wilborn (Katherine Hale) of Woodinville, Wash., Katherine Xina Barnes (David) of Jay, Fla., Linda Kay Fritsch (David) of Bremerton, Wash., and David Cramer Wilborn (Jessica Prince) of Mercer Island, Wash.

She is also survived by three grandchildren, Michael Wright (Tracy), Jonathan Fritsch (Vanessa) and Rebecca Cain (Michael), and nine great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, Elsie may be remembered through her life work in Planned Parenthood by way of donations made to International Planned Parenthood F e d e r a t i o n / We s t e r n Hemisphere Region (IPPF) — www.ippfwhr.org — a recognized international leader

Box 728 Lebanon, N.H., 03766.

Cramer “Stretch” Wilborn, 92, of Oak Harbor, passed away Thursday, March 27, 2014.

Cramer Wilborn was born in Bannister, Va., on March 17, 1922, to the late Zorah Mitchell Wilborn and Florence Virginia Cramer Wilborn. He was married 61 years to the late Elsie Margaret (Hendrix) Wilborn, who passed away last year, April 6, 2013, at age 83.

He graduated from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in December 1942.

Cramer went on to get his pilot’s license from Feraldo’s Flying Service in August 1948, which shaped his career and life.

Fondly known to friends and family as “Stretch,” Cramer started his career in aviation when he joined the Navy in September 1942, serving 20 years as an aircraft mechanic aboard many aircraft carriers during both WWII and the Korean War and served at Whidbey Island under Heavy Attack Squadron Eight (VAH-8), before retiring a chief petty officer in December of 1964.

He later served in a civilian capacity at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station as head of the jet mechanics lab from 1967 until his second retirement.

Stretch also taught airframes and power-plants at Skagit Valley College.

Stretch logged thousands of hours of flight-time in dozens of different aircraft. His passion was intoxicating to anyone fortunate enough to share the cockpit with him.

He is survived by four children, Michael Kay Wilborn (Katherine Hale) of Woodinville, Katherine Xina Barnes (David) of Jay, Fla., Linda Kay Fritsch (David) of Bremerton, and David Cramer Wilborn (Jessica Prince) of Mercer Island.

He is also survived by three grandchildren, Michael Wright (Tracy), Jonathan Fritsch (Vanessa) and Rebecca Cain (Michael), and nine great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting that donations be made to National Naval Aviation Museum, where a memorial to his name will honor his life achievements in aviation, and which he befriended in his last days, keeping his spirits up to the end. https://secure.qgiv.com/ for/namfcim

When B.B. retired from the Navy, the family returned to Tuscaloosa where they lived near B.B.’s extended family and where they raised their son. Sadly, B.B. passed away in 1968 after an extended illness, but Marie continued to live in Tuscaloosa, working for the county of Tuscaloosa for several years.

Marie then moved to Oak

Jack Hartman

Jack Edwin Hartman lost a short but brave battle to pancreatic cancer and went to heaven on May 8, 2014.

Jack was born on Oct. 29, 1931m to Clifford and Mattie Rose Hartman in Hamilton, Ohio.

As an only child and raised by his grandmother, he went on to become a star football player in high school, joined the Navy and married the love of his life, Barbara Grafton, on Sept. 20, 1952.

Jack retired from the Navy as a chief petty officer dental technician in 1971 after 20 years and made a career change as the assistant manager of the Whidbey Federal Credit Union in Oak Harbor, Wash.

He later moved to Olympia, Wash., where he managed the Social and Health Services Credit Union.

After retiring for good, he and Barbara headed south to Yuma, Ariz., for the past 25 years, but still returned to Whidbey Island for the beautiful summers.

Jack, a 32nd Degree Shriner, was very active in the Oak Harbor Fourth of July parades and various charitable activities. He loved to golf, loved to socialize (especially happy hours), and loved his family and friends more than anything.

He checked off the last item on his bucket list with a fishing trip to the Kenai River in Alaska with his good friends and had one of the best times of his life.

He fought his battle with cancer, often dreaming he was back at that same place.

Jack is survived by his wife of 61 years, Barbara Hartman; son Matthew Hartman, of Marysville, Wash.; daughter Vickie Catton, of Kapolei, Hawaii; grandchildren Kristofer Catton of Portland, Ore., Tara Johnson of Crownsville, M.D., Elizabeth Klone of Eagle River, Ark.; and greatgrandchildren Katherine Johnson, Natalie Johnson and Jackson Edwin Klone.

Injuries cripple soccer season

SPORTS IN BRIEF Cheer holds tryouts

By JIIM WALLER Sports editor

The year began with high expectations and even higher hopes.

Those dreams evaporated for the Oak Harbor High School soccer team in a 3-0 loss to Meadowdale in a district tournament, loser-out game Tuesday, May 13, at Wildcat Memorial Stadium.

Last year, Oak Harbor qualified for the district tournament for the first time in 11 seasons and for only the second time since 1994.

With most of its starters back from a team that finished second in the Wesco North, including six seniors who started since their freshman year and five who earned allconference, second-team honors, Oak Harbor was primed for its first trip to the state tournament in 20 years.

That didn’t happen as the Wildcats literally limped through a 6-11-1 season.

Oak Harbor was hobbled by injuries all spring.

After the season-ending loss to Meadowdale, head coach Brian Thompson was reluctant to talk about the elephant —the one on crutches — in the room.

Not wanting to make excuses, Thompson was hesitant, but eventually offered: “Without our core seniors, it was devastating. The young kids filled a void, but it wasn’t the same without our senior leadership.”

In all, nine of 11 starters missed at least one match, and five reserves

Tryouts for the 2014-15 Oak Harbor High School cheer team will take place 5:30-8:30 p.m.

May 27, 28 and 30 at the OHHS gym.

All Oak Harbor High School students are eligible to tryout; students must attend all three days to be considered for the team.

Clearance packets can be picked up in the athletic office and must be submitted prior to tryouts on May 27.

Participating students need to wear a T-shirt, shorts and athletic shoes and bring a water bottle to tryouts each day. No jewelry or piercings can be worn and hair must be pulled back.

The athletic office is open on school days from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information, call 360-279-5850.

Garth Westcott, right, tangles with Meadowdale’s Taylor Von der Hofen Tuesday. also sat at least once because of injuries.

It began before Oak Harbor played a match when junior starter Dakota Powers broke his leg during the first week of practice.

In addition, many players competed with injuries, hindering their ability to play at their best.

Only twice all season did Oak Harbor, minus Powers, send its strongest team onto the pitch.

Thompson acknowledged he stopped counting when the number of matches his starters missed approached 50.

“I really thought this would be the year we returned to the state tournament,” Thompson said.

Three-year captain Alex Krantz and co-captain Andrew Mitchell “did an amazing job of helping keep the team together,” Thompson said.

Senior Gavin Stewart said, “Once the players started dropping off, we woke up to the fact we weren’t going to win the league title.”

The focus, then, became making the playoffs, Stewart said.

Some positives did come out of the season,

he added.

Younger players gained varsity experience and were able to learn from the seniors “the level of play expected for Oak Harbor soccer,” Stewart said.

In the loss to Meadowdale, Oak Harbor held its own, if not controlled, the scoreless first half. That changed moments into the second period.

It took the Mavericks only 19 seconds to score after the break.

Meadowdale (10-6-2) added goals in the 64th and 77th minutes.

The Oak Harbor Babe Ruth baseball team split a pair of games with Mount Vernon this week, losing 6-3 and then picking up its first win, 11-5, Thursday, May 15.

Defensive mistakes hurt Oak Harbor in the first game, but the team’s hitting showed improvement, according to coach Pete Richter.

Cory Roberts was 2-for-3 with a double; and Chris Trisler, Will Danielson and James Besaw each collected hits.

In the second game, Oak Harbor “hit the ball or got on via base on balls at the right times,” Richter said.

Trisler was 2-for-3, and Thomas Anderson, Caleb Fitzgerald, Hunter Smith and Roberts each rapped timely hits.

Oak Harbor goes to Friday Harbor for an 11 a.m. double header Saturday, May 17.

McCardle advances Oak Harbor High School graduate Eric McCardle shared medalist honors in a United States Golf Association qualifier for the U.S. Open at TPC Summerlin in Las Vegas Monday, May 12.

The win moved McCardle one step closer to qualifying for the U.S. Open, which will be played

June 12-15 at Pinehurst 2 in North Carolina.

McCardle earned one of the eight qualifying spots for the sectional tournament, a one-day, 36-hole event in San Francisco Monday, June 2.

McCardle, who now lives in Las Vegas, shot a one-under 70 at TPC Summerlin in spite of high winds and firm greens to top the field of 154.

Stout earns honors Oak Harbor High School graduate Jay Stout, now playing baseball for AIB College of Business in Des Moines, Iowa, earned allMidwest Collegiate Conference honors, the league announced Monday, May 12.

Stout, a left fielder, not only picked up first-team honors, but was selected to the conference’s Gold Glove team for outstanding defense with 56 putouts and fielding percentage of .984.

The junior led the Eagles in hitting with a .339 average, including a slugging percentage of .475 and an on base percentage of .453.

“Jay is a prime example of a guy letting his talking get it done on the field,” said coach Chad Harris. “He plays an aggressive style of baseball, which fits perfectly with our philosophy. ”

Hammer places Coupeville High School graduate Hunter Hammer placed in two events at the National Christian College Athletic Association track and field championships at Shorter University in Rome, Ga., May 1-3.

Hammer competes for Trinity Lutheran College of Everett, which is in its inaugural year of athletic competition.

Hammer placed third and received all-American honors in the discus with a throw of 15205.14.

He also placed fifth in the hammer throw with a personal best 155-05.75.

He toe fouled in two shot-put attempts and did not place. Had the marks counted, they would have been good enough to win the event, according to the Trinity Lutheran website.

Trail partners

Walking space offers daily ‘reset’ time

By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter

Spending most of her day indoors as a dietitian at Whidbey General Hospital, Lori Taylor is delighted when she gets an opportunity to step outside.

During extended breaks, she’s found a nature trail near her workplace to be particularly rewarding.

“I just call it ‘pushing the reset button,’” she said.

The Krueger Woods Trail was recently completed, giving other people in Coupeville a similar chance to unwind.

A joint project between the Whidbey Camano Land Trust, the Town of Coupeville and the hospital, the trail got the finishing touches when a work party created a new access point to reach the trail loop April 26.

Members from the land trust, town and hospital gathered May 13 for a ribbon-cutting to officially open the trail to the public.

The trail loop was already in existence, but entering or exiting from N.W. 1st Street often meant intruding on the privacy of residents at Krueger Commons Townhomes.

So, the parties worked together to cut out a new entry point farther away from the condominiums with access at N.W. Wilkes Street.

The new trail through the woods modified an existing “deer trail” and leads walkers to the loop.

“We wanted to be the best neighbors we could be. That’s why we rerouted the trail,” said Janelle Castro, outreach manager for the Whidbey Camano Land Trust.

“Now by developing an additional section, it makes a very nice loop that’s convenient for hospital employees and for the community at large to utilize.”

A land trust board member approached the hospital’s Green Team about the partnership.

Taylor, who leads the hospital’s Green Team, said the hospital will do its part by helping maintain the trail and picking up trash.

“It’s not a trail for employees,” Taylor said. “It’s a trail for the public. To me, it’s one of those things that benefits both parties. We have a place to walk. It’s a place for the public and we can help out the land trust with stewardship.”

The wooded property is owned by the town with a portion pro-

tected through a conservation easement with the land trust, established in 2004. The greater property was once known as the Krueger Farm.

The Whidbey Camano Land Trust, a nonprofit that works to preserve rural and scenic land unique to the islands’ way of life, is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year.

Part of its theme this year is “Partnerships for the Future.”

Teaming up with the hospital on the trail project is one example.

The land trust is holding a 30th anniversary celebration Aug. 16 at the Camp Casey Conference Center, near Fort Casey State Park, and is looking for volunteers to assist with numerous hands-on activities planned.

The family-geared event will go from 2-5 p.m. at the picnic area and will include a salmon barbecue, guest speakers, live music, kite flying, guided tours and bird and bat house building.

The cost will be $10.

For more information, call 360222-3310, send an email to janelle@ wclt.org or go to the land trust’s website at www.wclt.org

Need is great to help Whidbey’s homeless teens FAITHFUL LIVING

By JOAN BAY KLOPE

It’s wedding season and thoughts of my own wedding and marriage preparation, some 33 years ago now, came to mind this week. I vividly recall asking our pastor to forgo extended comments about children. It wasn’t that we didn’t want kids; we were simply not in the “having kids’s mindset.”

We had just graduated from college and our energies focused on building our careers, our marriage and our home. I distinctly recall thinking, “Someday we’ll have

kids.”

Five years later, the first of three Klope babies arrived and our world changed for the better.

We reworked and reordered our daily activities, placing her in the center, instead of careers demanding our complete attention. I don’t for a minute believe this is the only way to order life. It worked for us, however.

Interestingly, the joys of marriage grew deeper as it was infused by new friends, their kids and kidraising adventures. Our faith grew as well, for a host of people stood beside us to pray, share their experiences, and support us. Time and again, in seasons of joy as well as great stress, worry and sorrow, we watched amazing situations unfold, all building on our belief that God hovered near us.

NOTABLE Oak Harbor resident KYLIE ANN GILCREST graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of Central Oklahoma with a

bachelor of science degree in forensic science and a bachelor of science degree in biology along with approximately 2,183 spring

Throughout the years, Matt and I have watched each other grow and evolve as people. I could not have foreseen, looking into the eyes of 23-year-old Matt on the day of our wedding, that he would become a life partner who developed many creative venues to enthusiastically love and guide kids moving in and out of our lives.

Nor could I have understood how beautiful and deep it is to love your own kids and discover reserves of love for others.

It is a celebration of our life as a couple and our great love of kids that propelled us into the world of foster parenting.

We never planned to be foster parents, but we stepped into this world two years ago when we learned there are well over 100 identified teens living in tents,

and summer 2014 graduates during Central’s commencement ceremonies May 9-10.

Located just north of Oklahoma City in Edmond, Okla., the University of Central Oklahoma is the state’s largest metropolitan university.

cars, and “surfing” the couches of friends here on Whidbey Island.

This population of kids are too old to be taken into a burdened foster care system but not yet legal adults. An astounding percentage of them get themselves to school and dream of hopeful futures because they have teachers who care and school schedules that offer them consistency and an educated path away from poverty.

They find themselves in these circumstances because their family members have problems of their own that debilitate them.

We have shelters for pets but none for our children here on the island. For Whidbey kids who have been removed from their homes to ensure their safety, local options are limited.

There are almost no homes

available for teens and they are routinely shipped off the island.

When Matt and I learned of this dire situation, we asked ourselves a simple question: If not us, then who will step up? At the time, we were watching two Klope kids build their professional and private lives while the third lived away at college.

With empty bedrooms upstairs, good health and energy on our parts, we considered how it would feel to give up cherished privacy and complicate established family dynamics.

In the coming weeks I’ll introduce some key community players on Whidbey and challenge you with this idea: We can do hard things.

School district cutting student athletic fees next year

By MICHELLE BEAHM Staff reporter

Oak Harbor School Board approved a new fee schedule Monday for the 2014-15 school year.

Many of the fees were decreased or altogether eliminated.

One of the biggest changes is the reduced athletic and parking fees.

Athletic fees at the middle school are currently $75 for the first sport, $50 for a second sport and $25 for the third.

Starting next school year, the fees are $25 for the first, second and third sport.

At the high school, the fees for this year are $100 for the first sport, $75 for the second and $50 for the third. Next year, the fees will be $80 for the first, $55 for the second and no fee for the third.

“This is just bringing our fees back down to the level they were prior to our fiscal challenges over the last few years,” said schools Superintendent Lance Gibbon.

As a result of budget cuts, fees steadily increased over the past six years, according to Gibbon.

He credits the recently approved levy as the reason why student athletic fees can go back down.

Gibbon said the number of opportunities for middle school students has doubled, and

participation in athletics has also increased.

It’s expected to increase more next year with the lower fees.

“I think it’s fantastic that we’re dropping things and making it more affordable,” said school board member Corey Johnson.

In addition to reduced athletic fees, parking will cost students less at the high school next year.

This year, underclassmen paid $45 for an annual parking pass and seniors paid $55.

Next year, those fees will be $30 and $35, respectively.

Many other minor decreases occurred, but 12 fees were eliminated altogether at the middle and high schools.

It would cost the district more to collect and manage the fees that were eliminated than it does to eliminate those fees, Gibbon said.

A small number of fees were increased by the school board. CPR certification fee increased by $5, and the ServSafe Certification for the culinary arts program increased by $1.

Also, lunch fees will increase by 10 cents.

“Some of that has to do with the new nutrition guidelines,” Gibbon said. “We are trying to have some more fresh foods and whole grains.

“We want to be able to provide nutritious and tasty meals for our kids.”

Because the district is providing more fresh food and whole grains in student meals,

High School and middle school athletic fees will be reduced starting next fall. The reduction is based on the district’s better financial standing with the most recently approved levy. food costs went up for the district.

However, Gibbon told the school board he doesn’t believe these fees were increased during the previous three years.

The school board approved the fee sched-

In another surprise, Coupeville resident Becky Wagner filed to run against Island County Auditor Sheilah Crider.

Wagner is an independent and Crider a Republican.

Wagner is the financial director for Senior Services of Island County and formerly the chief accountant at the Skagit County Auditor’s Office. She also worked as a temporary employee in the Island County Auditor’s Office in 2011 and 2012; she helped with “financials.”

Wagner said she believes she can help the auditor’s office to improve.

“I saw a lot of innovation in Skagit County and I think Island County could use some innovation.”

As expected, four Republican and one Democratic candidates filed by press time for the District 3 commissioner seat being vacated by Kelly Emerson.

The Republican candidates are Camano resident Aubrey Vaughan, Oak Harbor resident Rick Hannold and Camano Island residents Marc Hennemann and Kelly Bagley.

Karla Jacks, also of Camano Island, is the sole Democratic candidate.

County Assessor Mary Wilson-Engle, County Clerk Debra Van Pelt, Coroner Robert Bishop, Prosecutor Greg Banks, District Court Judge Bill Hawkins and Sheriff Mark Brown were all running unopposed by press time.

State Rep. Dave Hayes, a Camano Island Republican, drew three challengers for his 10th District position.

Oak Harbor resident David Sponheim and Mount Vernon resident Nick Petrish are running as Democrats against Hayes.

Brien Lillquist, a former North Whidbey Parks and Recreation commissioner and school board candidate, filed to run against Hayes as a Republican.

Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, has one challenger.

Camano Island resident Michael Scott is running against her as a Libertarian.

U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Arlington, also has one challenger. Mike Lapointe of Everett is running against him as an independent.

ried that an influx of pot-related business would be bad for the business climate.

“I’m concerned that Marks Auto is being uprooted and may be in jeopardy because of marijuana businesses,” he said, adding that he’s concerned the area could become a “drug haven.”

Documents obtained by the Whidbey News-Times through a public records request show that Scott and Christina Hensrude of Woodinville applied to open a retail recreational marijuana business at 3171 North Goldie Road under the name Herbs and Buds, LLC. The Hensrudes purchased the property, as well as adjacent structures, under the name 3143-3171 North Goldie LLC. The Hensrudes could not be reached for comment.

According to Calim, the address of the proposed business is the former sports bar, which is located in front of his repair shop.

Approval of recreational marijuana business, however, doesn’t appear to be imminent.

The property is apparently zoned “Oak Harbor industrial,” said David Wechner, Island County planning director.

ule unanimously among those who were present.

Board members Gary Wallin and Reilly Richards were excused and left earlier in the evening.

Wechner said the recently approved county regulations governing recreational marijuana don’t allow retail pot shops in that zoning.

Rules governing medical marijuana, however, are a different matter, as those types of businesses already exist in the county and are governed by different rules.

State lawmakers are working to combine recreational and medical pot rules.

Meanwhile, William Widner of Kirkland applied, under the name W&L Holding, for a license through the state for a recreational marijuana retail shop at 788 Northeast Midway Boulevard.

But, same problem — the city’s development services director, Steve Powers, said Oak Harbor’s pot ordinance doesn’t allow marijuana businesses in that area, which is zoned “C-3.”

A couple of marijuana businesses proposed for South Whidbey may have better luck.

Maureen Cooke, owner of Mo’s Pub and Eatery, filed an application with the Washington State Liquor Control Board to open the Whidbey Island Cannabis Co. at a location in Bayview.

Cooke hasn’t received final approval from state regulators, but said she is “99 percent” through the review and qualification process.

“It looks like I might be the very first

licensee,” Cooke said. “I’m very excited about it.”

Cooke said she will carry a variety of products, from oils and paraphernalia — including pipes and papers — to approximately 20 different strains of marijuana.

As per the state’s rules, each strain must come from approved and licensed growers.

Freeland business owner Lucas Jushinski, owner of Island Alternative Medicine, applied to operate the Green Dragon in the same commercial space as his existing business.

Unlike in other communities where large numbers of applicants required lotteries to determine who would be considered, one wasn’t necessary on Whidbey Island.

Island County has a quota of four retail pot shops, including one proposed for Oak Harbor, and only four applicants made it through the criminal background checks, financial inspection and other aspects of the licensing process so far.

Brian Smith, the spokesman for the Washington State Liquor Control Board, said the agency should start issuing licenses in June.

Smith said he consumers can expect to see marijuana shops begin opening in July. n South Whidbey Record Editor Justin Burnett contributed to this article.

Oak Harbor School Board seeking to extend waiver Oak Harbor School District unanimously approved a waiver Monday night that makes the school year four days shorter than mandated by the state.

This waiver allows school districts to substitute four full days for eight half days, which the district uses for parent-

teacher conferences.

“It allows us to have pretty meaningful conferences with fewer interruptions,” said Karst Brandsma, the interim assistant superintendent of the school district.

For the waiver to be approved by the state, the school board must show that

it gave the situation “due consideration,” according to Brandsma.

Brandsma said she believes the state Board of Education will respond to the school district waiver within 30 days.

This waiver is something the district has done in the past, and lasts for three school

years.

The current waiver ends this school year.

This waiver also allows the school district to save money on transportation; it eliminates four days that the school district will needs student transportation during the school year.

CHURCH NOTES

n MICHAEL KINNAMON, a national leader in the field of ecumenical and inter-religious studies, will discuss “What have the churches said together about peace,” 7 p.m. Friday, May 23, at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland. Much of the current conflicts in the world are rooted in religious and cultural differences: Nigeria, Ukraine and the Middle East. In this country, too, there are deep divisions between and within various denominations of Christianity and other religious groups. How do we understand, accept and reconcile differences as we work together for peace in the world? Kinnamon is invited to speak at the invitation of a diverse group of clergy on South Whidbey, representing Congregationalists, Episcopalians, Lutherans, Methodists, Quakers, Roman Catholics and Unitarian Universalists. The event is free and open to the public. n OAK HARBOR SEVENTH DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH is holding a Vacation Bible School 10 a.m. to noon Monday, July 28, through Friday, Aug. 1. The program is “Investigation Station: Galactic Quest.” They will play an important role in investigating God’s plan for their life. There will be skits, games, entertaining characters and snacks. For ages 5-12. n LITTLE LAMBS PRESCHOOL at Concordia Lutheran Church, 590 N. Oak Harbor Street, is accepting registrations for the 2014-15 school year, beginning in September for ages 3 and 4. A $50 non-refundable deposit is required at the time of registration. Tuition is due the first of the month, $90 for 3-year-olds and $120 for 4-year-olds. The teaching staff is experienced in preschool education, which is characterized by a love for Jesus, a love for children and a dedication to providing the best environment and experiences for learning and kindergarten readiness.

Week of May 18 to 24, 2014 ARIES Expect to receive lots of invitations from your friends. There is always someone to talk to. You attend a few large gatherings.

TAURUS Your career is suddenly catapulted forward when you dare to make some revolutionary suggestions. You may also start your own business.

GEMINI Someone confides some very particular secrets to you. You may have to decipher a message in another language or, perhaps, a cryptic comment from your loved one.

CANCER You are a bundle of nerves. You may also shed tears of joy. One of your children may achieve a huge exploit, even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only to take his or her first steps towards something.

LEO In order to negotiate successfully, put your emotions to the side. If you want to avoid any problems, be sure to respect the laws and regulations to the letter.

VIRGO There is lots of work on the horizon. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have time to breathe at the office. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more, you probably wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be in the best of health and so some rest is necessary.

LIBRA You are particularly proud of yourself after accomplishing a brilliant exploit. You discover some unsuspected talents.

SCORPIO You spend some time at home, where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sure to find a wall to paint or some jobs that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d enjoy doing. A move could unexpectedly materialize.

SAGITTARIUS You have a lot to talk about. Indeed, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re keeping some secrets you may have difficulty in staying quiet and reveal one with a slip of the tongue.

CAPRICORN This is a great week to think seriously about selling or buying a property. You are fairly surprised to realize that you can afford your ambitions.

AQUARIUS Everything is going at top speed this week. You settle lots of things and you manage to contact people fairly easily; people will return your calls quickly.
