Lions screen kids’ hearing, vision

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

Hundreds of elementary school students streamed into the Lions Health Screening Unit for hearing and vision screenings this week, a relief for the three school nurses serving Oak Harbor School District.

The screening unit is based in Seattle and travels around Washington and Idaho doing health screenings for schools and the general public.

Mike Parker, a member of the Northwest Lions Foundation of Seattle, drives the unit. He’s on the road 270 days out of the year and drove the unit 32,000 miles in the last year.

Lions screened students in four elementary schools from Jan. 3 to 6, with each school taking the entire school day.

State law requires that kindergarten through third-grade, fifthand seventh-grade students be screened for vision and hearing.

This is the first year the unit has screened at Oak Harbor schools.

A school nurse requested that the unit screen students when she saw the van doing a public screening in Oak Harbor.

The process to fill Position 5 was hammered out Tuesday at the body’s first meeting of the year.

Newly elected Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley has fired City Administrator Paul Schmidt and City Attorney Margery Hite.

Dudley, who defeated incumbent Jim Slowik this past November, said he sat down with both senior-level city employees late this week and told them that he was terminating their employment.

Dudley said Hite’s termination was effectively immedi- Margery Hite ately and that he has replaced her with Assistant City Attorney Bill Hawkins. Schmidt will stay on until Feb. 6 so he can work with Planning Director Steve Powers, who will fill in on an interim basis.

“Paul will be working with Steve to ensure a smooth transition,” Dudley said.

The mayor declined to say why he relieved the two employees, saying it was inappropriate to discuss or comment on individual personnel issues. He said both “served the city well” and he wishes them luck in their future endeavors but that SEE FIRED, A4

Navy man pleads not guilty to domestic violence

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

A 31-year-old Navy man is accused of choking his wife and preventing her from calling for help, court documents indicate.

Prosecutors charged Andrew Yoakum in Island County Superior Court Dec. 22 with assault in the second degree and interfering with the reporting of domestic violence.

Yoakum pleaded not guilty Jan. 3.

Navy security officers notified Oak Harbor police Dec.

19 of a possible domestic assault at a home on Western Drive. Officer John Little investigated the complaint.

The alleged victim said that she and her husband, Yoakum, were fighting about money and his Facebook page when he got angry and allegedly broke the chair she was sitting on.

As they continued yelling at each other, he grabbed her by the throat and pushed her against the wall, according to the police report.

The woman claimed she could not breathe and briefly passed out, finding herself on

Dermatologist goes back to jail

A former Coupeville dermatologist is back in prison after a bail bond company revoked part of his bail.

Donald “Russell� Johnson has pleaded not guilty in Island County Superior Court to two counts of assault in the

In an interview with the officer, Yoakum admitted that he “lost it� and grabbed his wife by the throat, pushing her against the wall, the report states. But he claimed he did not choke her and did not put any pressure on her throat.

second degree and a single count of “harassment / threats to kill.� Both were charged as domestic-violence-related crimes.

Johnson was briefly released from jail in December after spending about two months behind bars. His bail was set at $100,000, including $75,000 he previously posted. Johnson posted the remaining $25,000 on Dec. 12 and was freed.

But then the bail bond company, Barry’s A-Ace Bail Bonds of Bellingham, filed an affidavit of surrender on Dec. 19. The reason cited was that Johnson

At a Dec. 20 court hearing, the judge released Yoakum on his personal recognizance to VAQ 137. The judge approved a no-contact order preventing him from having any contact with the alleged victim.

If convicted of the charges, Yoakum could face from three to nine months in prison under the standard sentencing range.

As a result, Johnson had to return to the county jail.

Johnson is accused of choking his girlfriend and threatening to kill her at their Cornet Bay home Sept. 6.

This summer Johnson abruptly closed his popular dermatology clinics and skin-care spas in both Coupeville and Anacortes. His medical license was suspended by the state after he was charged.

$JUZ TUSJWFT GPS NPSF PQFO NFFUJOHT Council considers

videotaping standing committees

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Oak Harbor decision makers are looking at several options that could radically change the way city council standing committees meet, one of which includes combining all four into a single monthly meeting.

That was one of three possibilities discussed Tuesday at the city council’s first meeting of the year. It was also the first meeting chaired

by Scott Dudley, the newly elected mayor and former city councilman.

Honoring promises he and other candidates made while on the campaign trail, Dudley asked the council to consider televising and changing the times and locations of standing committee meetings to make them more assessable to the public. “We have three different times for four different meetings,� said Dudley, adding that they also take place at three different locations.

Oak Harbor’s four standing committees include

Public Works and Utilities, Public Safety, Government Services and Finance. They serve to inform city council members about issues and projects before they are voted on.

Currently, two begin at 7 a.m., one at 8 a.m., and the fourth starts at 3:30 p.m.

Also, they are variously held at the Public Works building on NE 16th Avenue, the fire department on E. Whidbey Avenue and at City Hall on SE Barrington Drive.

Although the topic started as a discussion about televising the meetings and standardizing their times and locations, City Councilman Jim Campbell suggested they go one step further by reverting to an older format of having just one meeting a month at City Hall. “It would be more opportune (for the public to attend) just like it’s more opportune to go to a 6 p.m. council meeting,� Campbell said.

Under that scenario, all seven council members would be more easily able to participate in the discussions held at the four separate meetings.

Right now, all but Paggao, who is mayor pro-tem, serve on just two committees; each group has three total members.

Campbell’s proposal did not receive much traction.

City Councilwoman Beth Munns said standing committee meetings often take two hours and having all four at one time would mean some pretty late nights. She also worried that cramming everything into one meeting might hamper productivity. “We’d never get anything done,� Munns said.

Although Campbell argued that it has worked successfully in the past, City Councilmen Danny Paggao and Bob Severns said they shared Munns’ concern about the potential for eighthour meetings.

Severns did say he was open to the idea of taping, however. “I think that would be a good move on our part,�

Severns said.

The impact to city staff was also discussed. Munns said having just one potentially long meeting a month would be hard on staff because it would mean they would be getting home late.

Paggao added that the current times and locations were established largely because it was more con-

venient for city employees.

They have busy schedules and having meetings at the start of their day and near their offices is less of a disruption. “I know they are hardworking people,� he said.

In the end, the city council agreed it would be good to get the prospective of staff at each standing committee before making any decisions.

That would also allow time for additional proposals, such as having two meetings a month, to be drafted for consideration.

Dudley concluded by saying that he has no desire to see standing committees go away and does not support having just one meeting a month. However, he said changes are needed to make the meetings more accessible and having them all at City Hall would go a long way toward meeting that goal. “I think you’ll find that everyone will applaud you for doing that,� Dudley said.

The issue is expected to come back for further review and possible action at the first meeting in February.

FIRED CONTINUED FROM A1 he believes his decision was made in the best interest of the city.

Schmidt could not be reached for comment but Hite said she was not surprised by the news, that she “had an idea this was coming.� She also said Dudley was not very specific about why he was making the change, only that it for administrative reasons. “Just a change of management,� she said.

According to Hite, both she and Schmidt hold appointed positions that serve at the will of the mayor. It’s not uncommon for new mayors to make changes with senior level leadership at City Hall once they’ve taken office. “It’s important that the person in the position is someone the mayor is comfortable with,� she said.

Hite was hired in 2008 and Schmidt in 2006. Hite said Hawkins was “an excellent choice� to take over for her and said she planned to assist him from home with unfinished projects, such as the recent decision to appeal a growth management ruling concerning the city’s plans for expansion.

While Dudley’s move will certainly raise a few eyebrows, it came as little surprise. He hinted at staffing changes for months while on the campaign trail and the issue blossomed into controversy late last month when City Councilman Rick Almberg suggested a six-month hiring and firing freeze.

Almberg is out of the country and could not be reached for this story.

Transportation, food services addressed for levy

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

With the approach of the 2013 levy next year, the Oak Harbor School District seeks input on what should be included.

The school board meeting includes a public forum Monday, Jan. 9 at 6:30 p.m. to address whether funding for transportation and food services should be included in the regular maintenance and operation levy.

Transportation has never been paid for by a levy, according to Superintendent Rick Schulte. The state funds approximately $1.3 million, Federal Impact Aid funds $517,000 and fees and fundraising fund $82,000 of the transportation budget.

The meeting will address whether to add a transportation levy to cover the $500,000 shortfall caused by rising fuel costs, which is currently funded by Impact Aid. Fuel fluctuated from $2.76 to $3.95 per gallon last year but state funding has remained the same, Schulte said.

To cope, the district has made transportation cuts over the years, including cutting tutoring and activity buses, field trips and, recently, cutting everyday kindergarten so the district doesn’t pay for midday busing. “I think we’ve cut as much as we can. There isn’t anything left in transportation that doesn’t cut expenditure as well as revenue,� Schulte said.

Schulte said he hears from parents that they want as

much money as possible to go into the classroom rather than programs like transportation, but the Impact Aid money the district is using to meet the transportation funding shortfall could be used for instruction instead if another funding source is found for transportation.

A 15 cent levy increase would garner $600,000 per year, Schulte said.

The food services program is funded by federal and state reimbursements, the levy and student participation. The goal is for the program to remain cost neutral. Currently, food services has a $2 million budget and serves 5,000 meals per day. “We want it to pay for itself. We don’t want it to be a burden to any other budget in the district,� said Ken Harrison, director for food services.

Reimbursement funding is

based on the number of students who eat food provided by food services so staff has to find a balance between healthy food and providing meals students will choose to eat, Harrison said.

The food program was discontinued in 1979 due to low participation and reopened in 2001 due to a 7 cent levy designated solely for food services. Now, food services funding is included in the levy but that funding is only used to pay for custodial service in the cafeterias and the time it takes secretaries to handle payments and Free and Reduced Lunch applications, Schulte said.

The meeting will address whether to continue including food services in the levy and how to address the rising costs of food.

the cost of lunch to $2.77 to equal federal free lunch payments, Schulte said.

Currently, lunch at elementary schools costs $2.40 and at middle and high schools lunch costs $2.65. “No school that I’m aware of at least is lower than us and we’re still operating on a break-even basis,� Schulte said.

The menu is always evolving as food services works to expose students to healthier choices than fast food, Harrison said. There are salad bars in every school and food services has done sampling to let students try something besides pizza and hamburgers.

The struggle is providing healthy food that students will actually eat and being able to afford healthy ingredients. Often, this means resorting to “hidden health,�

Harrison said. “Sometimes we have to cheat the system and hide healthy things in things they like,� Harrison said, adding that they use whole grain pizza crust and pasta, and soy in hamburgers. “Families truly have a vested interest in what we do and how we do it,� Harrison said.

The community should “think about what kinds of meals they want their students to be provided and what they’re willing to pay for that,� Harrison said.

CONTINUED FROM A1 members volunteered their time to do the screenings and the club donated $150 per school to pay for the unit.

Funding for the unit came from the public, Jacobs said. “The community supports us by buying our fruit and Christmas tree sales. That’s where we get the money for this,� Jacobs said.

Six Lions manned the screening stations for each shift, helping students put on headphones to test their hearing and pointing to shapes to test their eyesight.

Some Lions volunteered for multiple shifts.

During a break between students, Oak Harbor School District nurse Robbin White celebrated the Lions’ work.

She has already devoted countless hours to screening seventh-grade students at North Whidbey and Oak Harbor middle schools. “It’s such a huge expense they’re supporting our schools with. They were very, very supportive of us,� White said of the Oak

Harbor Lions Club.

Usually, White spends two days per school doing the screenings herself, which takes away from her normal duties. Since the screenings are so important, she said she’s grateful the Lions are providing relief. “It’s huge how much that impacts students’ learning if they can’t see,� White said.

Lion David DeMarsh said he was shocked some students had such poor vision. “So I’m thinking we can do something about this. Get the kid glasses and maybe his grades will improve,�

DeMarsh said. “I was surprised yesterday at how many kids couldn’t see. I had one that could just read the top line. If they can’t see, how are they doing in school?� said Lion Sharon Ryan.

If students fail the hearing or sight tests, the school nurse will re-screen the student later to make sure there was no extraneous reason for the failure, such as a cold that affects hearing. If the student fails again, the nurse will refer the student to a professional.

If professionals deem that

the child needs glasses and the family absolutely can’t afford them, the student will be referred to the Lions Club, which will fund the glasses, according to Ryan.

Jacobs has already turned in the paperwork to reserve the Lions Health Screening Unit for next year, which is important since the unit is in high demand. “I was almost sick by how many denial letters we had to send out because we can’t cover them all,� Parker said.

Lion Porter Baldridge said he hopes the unit will come back next year. “It’s a good project,� he added.

The Lions hold annual public screenings, usually at Ace Hardware in Oak Harbor, for diabetes, glaucoma, blood pressure and vision. This year, the club has taken up diabetes awareness because diabetes is one cause of blindness. “We would like people to get checked for diabetes,�

Jacobs said.

For information about the screenings, call Willis Jacobs at 679-4306.

CONTINUED FROM A1 Resumes are now being accepted and the group is hoping to make its selection by late February.

Interested candidates must be registered to vote in Island County and have lived inside Oak Harbor city limits for at least one year. Application packets can be found online at www.oakharbor.org or at City Hall and must be returned no later than 5 p.m., Jan. 20.

The appointment process was discussed following the ceremonial swearing in of Dudley and City Council members Beth Munns and Tara Hizon. All three, along with City Councilman Rick Almberg, officially took their oaths of office in late December, but this time it was done publicly amidst a large crowd of family and friends.

Almberg was not present Tuesday as he was away on a previously excused absence.

According to City Administrator Paul Schmidt, state law provides Oak Harbor elected officials three months to appoint a replacement to serve out the last two years of Dudley’s four-year term.

While that should be plenty of time, Schmidt said Tuesday that there could be consequences if the deadline is not met. “The hook is if you don’t select someone in 90 days, the county commissioners will do it for you,� he said.

tastewhidbey

Following the Jan. 20 submission deadline, candidate resumes will be reviewed by the entire city council at one or two special meetings until a shortlist of about four finalists is established. The meetings will be open to the public.

The finalists will be announced Feb. 7 and then be openly interviewed Feb. 21.

A decision is expected to be made and announced the same evening.

So far, only three people have confirmed they will be submitting resumes. They include former city councilman Larry Eaton, downtown merchant Ron Apgar and electronics contractor Cecil Pierce.

Political hopeful Mel Vance, former city councilman Paul Brewer and small business owner Jeff Trumbore are also considering submissions but all said this week they had not yet to decided.

Whoever is selected, the appointment process is nearly identical to the one used to choose Councilman Bob Severns in 2008. He filled the seat vacated by Sheilah Crider.

The only difference between the process now and then is that instead of the initial candidate list being whittled down by the full city council, it was previously done by a standing committee chosen by the mayor.

The city council did consider that option Tuesday, along with a third alternative that would have allowed the group to appoint its own committee to develop the shortlist.

The issue saw some debate but making the decision collectively got the most support. “I think this is an opportunity for all of us,� councilman Severns said.

IN OUR OPINION

Make Big Rock a public place The town of Coupeville, normally so protective of its heritage, has shown a discouraging disinterest in protecting its oldest asset, the huge glacial erratic known today as “Big Rock� and in past years as “The Rock of Ages.�

It’s probably the biggest rock on the island and it’s one of the biggest in the entire Northwest. Previous generations of Coupevillians took advantage of the rugged rock on the prairie, building steps to the top and using it for picnics and a fine perch from which to view the spectacular scenery that surrounds it.

The town missed its big chance to buy the land in front of the rock several years ago when it allowed construction of a large commercial building that now almost entirely hides the rock from people driving by on South Main Street. But still, there are possibilities.

The adjoining Big Rock Apartments are for sale, and the rock goes with them. But perhaps the land on which the rock sits, along with the century-old house that shares the plot, could be segregated and sold separately. The house could be turned into an adjunct to the Historical Society Museum, focusing on the geology of Whidbey Island while serving as a gateway to Big Rock itself. There would be room for people to touch the rock and take pictures while marveling at its size. Could there be another staircase to the top? It’s probably cost and safety prohibitive in this modern age, but we can dream.

The city has approximately $75,000 in cash on hand collected from park impact fees. The mayor has the money earmarked in her mind for other uses, but at least part of it might be used as seed money to inspire a “Save Big Rock� fundraising campaign.

Many older Coupeville residents have fond memories of the Rock of Ages of their youth, and preserving it now would be wise. The rock has been in good hands in recent years, but there is nothing to stop a new owner from turning it into a huge pile of valuable gravel if he or she should desire. Big Rock has alway been an intriguing part of Coupeville; it’s time to place it in public ownership and make it accessible for future generations to enjoy.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR 0QUJNJTUJD BCPVU UIF OFX ZFBS

I am writing in response to the editor’s opinion in the Dec. 31 Whidbey NewsTimes. I so much appreciated the tone and content of the article. Thank you.

I am also thankful for 2011 but very optimistic about 2012. We have seen many challenges this past year but I believe we have many opportunities in front of us.

In my lifetime, I have learned that adversity always creates opportunities.

As a business owner involved in the real estate industry, I agree that one of our economic challenges is the housing industry, though with consumer confidence increasing and all other positive indicators, we should see a stabilization this year. I am excited to be involved in this dynamic industry and to partner with all of the contractors, appli-

ance and furniture stores, home improvement centers and all of the other housing industry professionals to see a successful 2012 for all.

Thanks again for writing such a positive and optimistic letter of opinion. Wishing everyone a successful and prosperous 2012.

Look at all the cars sold in this country that should be made in the U.S.A. I served 20 months in the South Pacific. I believe the men of the USS Arizona, Oklahoma and all the others are not thanking the people that are buying these foreign cars.

This country is big enough to take care of our own instead of supporting China, Japan, Korea and other exporters. Our people and nation come first, not the best interests of 541 compromising, out-of-touch millionaire politicians!

It’s time for profound changes with the best interests of the people looked after for a change!

A3JHIUT XBOU POMZ QPXFS If tax breaks for corporations and the wealthy created jobs, everyone would have a job by now.

Tax and spend?

Republicans have been borrowing and spending for decades including two wars we didn’t need, costing us taxpayers over a trillion dollars so far.

No problem building roads and schools for Afghanistan or Iraq, but we can’t do the same for our own country.

Oh yeah, if we did that we might put people to work, the economy might improve and (“Oh no!�) President Obama might be re-elected.

Politics and power over improving our economy is what the “rights� want.

Something I heard recently: “Rich people (familiar with the Koch brothers?) and corporations pay FOX ‘News’ to convince the middle class that poor people are to blame for our troubles.� Get it?

Wake up, middle class!

You’re being lied to by the right wing, and manipulated.

Kathy Chmielewski, owner of It’s Your Turn toy store, poses for a picture with fellow boutique and business owners that rent space in her shop.

Toy store emphasizes playing and learning

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

For Oak Harbor resident Kathy Chmielewski, toys and family should go together like peanut butter and jelly.

They should be educational and get kids away from the TV. They should also be fun and engaging. But, most importantly, they should be designed to bring parents and children together and emphasize values like sharing.

And in her new store, It’s Your Turn, they do.

The 28-year-old Navy wife recently opened what appears to be the city’s only dedicated toy store.

Foregoing mainstream toys like Nerf guns, video games and Barbie dolls, she has instead narrowed her inventory to products from Melissa & Doug, a toy line with a focus on learning. She also carries baby and children’s boutique clothing.

So far, the store has proved exceptionally successful. “By the second day, I had my rent paid,� Chmielewski said. “We really didn’t expect it to take off the way it did,� she said.

In fact, the month of December was so busy that she is already planning a move to a larger storefront

+VTUJO #VSOFUU 8IJECFZ /FXT 5JNFT

Kathy Chmielewski plays with Marin Hadsall and Lee Chmielewski at her new store, It’s Your Turn. The shop offers toys geared to be educational, interactive and family friendly. this month. Chmielewski has her eye on a location downtown on SE Pioneer

Way. But the shop’s success isn’t just tied to her toy and

clothing inventory; the mother of four has developed a clever business model that is impressing city business leaders. Similar to the cooperative effort of some art galleries, in which multiple artists band together to pay the bills, Chmielewski is renting space to multiple local boutiques and businesses. “It’s a great idea,� said Jill Johnson Pfeiffer, director for the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce.

Not only does it supplement the store with a more diverse inventory of products that are locally made, but it also allows vendors to come and go without any major impacts to the store, she said.

That advantage may be particularly true in this case because the businesses are owned by Navy wives. So far they include Michelle Webster with Curly Girly Boutique, Emily Hadsall with Emalee’s Boutique and Erin Nowak with Sweet Sparrow Photography.

Each offers their own special product line: Webster creates outfits such as tutus and fairy wings, Hadsall makes hair bows and custom pillow case dresses, and Nowak is a professional photographer who shoots everything from newborns and family portraits to wedding

photography.

Webster, who has been selling her wares at community markets and events, said it’s been a huge boon to her business to have a dedicated location or home base of operations. “This has probably been our best Christmas yet,� she said.

Chmielewski’s husband is a flight engineer with VQ-1, a P-3 squadron at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station. She knows what it’s like to be left at home with the kids.

Without a job, it can be pretty boring and this provides an outlet to be constructive, she said.

Teaming up has inadvertently created a network among Navy moms who didn’t know each other before and has also given them an edge in being successful, which can be difficult in today’s tough times. “In this economy, moms need every chance they can get,� Chmielewski said.

It’s Your Turn is located at Trader’s Village, often referred to as the log cabin building, on Midway Boulevard. It is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

One lane of traffic on Highway 20 was closed Wednesday morning as the result of a single vehicle rollover accident next to the Navy’s Outlying Field south of Coupeville.

A woman was driving a Ford F-150 pickup south on Highway 20 when she lost control of the vehicle, crossed the northbound lane and ended up upside down in the ditch north of the intersection with Pleasant Acres Lane.

Trooper Larry Provoncha wits the Washington State Patrol said he was still investigating the accident and has to interview the driver of the truck before determining the cause of the accident.

When firefighters and paramedics arrived on scene, two good Samaritans had stopped to help the woman out of her car, said Chad Michael, battalion chief for Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue. A paramedic unit, fire engine and a basic life support vehicle were among the rescue units that responded to the accident.

Michael said the woman was conscious and alert.

Paramedics transported her to the hospital.

One lane of Highway 20 was closed while law enforcement investigated.

Michael said the accident serves as a good reminder to slow down during slick conditions and low visibility. It was rainy and windy at the time of the accident.

A Ford F-150 pickup rolled over on Highway 20 next to Outlying Field Wednesday morning, prompting one lane of the highway to close.

GAME OF THE WEEK

SPORTS

The Sultan High School girls basketball team plays at Coupeville Monday, Jan. 9, at 7 p.m.

4BUVSEBZ +BOVBSZ t 8IJECFZ /FXT 5JNFT

Sports editor

Although the Coupeville High School boys basketball team lost twice this week, it is beginning to plug some holes in its dike.

The Wolves lost at South Whidbey 68-38 Tuesday and to visiting Granite Falls 70-28 Thursday.

The Wolves’ offensive execution and defensive fundaments have improved from the beginning of the season, now it’s a matter of “consistency,� according to coach Anthony Smith.

South Whidbey (1-3, 4-6) employed a menacing pressure defense to go up 10-6, 33-14 and 48-22 at the quarters.

Gavin O’Keefe led the Wolves with 12 points.

Mitch Pelroy, returning after missing several games with an illness, added 11. Nick Streubel had six, Aaron Curtin five and Taylor Ebersole four.

Against Granite Falls, Coupeville followed a

pattern established the past few games: play well early then struggle in the second period.

Smith suspects the second-quarter slip has to do with fatigue. He plays a six-man rotation while the other teams put in a handful of “fresh bodies.�

Smith said, “Overall, I was happy with our effort; we just need to be more consistent -- but that will come.�

Granite Falls (3-2, 6-5) led by only two, 8-6, midway through the first quarter and then went on a 12-2 run that helped establish a 22-10 lead at the quarter.

The Tigers led 41-15 after two quarters and 60-19 after three.

Poor shooting and turnovers continue to hurt Coupeville. Smith said, “We must have shot 17, 18, maybe 20 percent.�

Coupeville was led by Streubel (who sat much of the game in foul trouble) and Ebersole with six points each. Curtin and O’Keefe scored four;

+PIO 'JTLFO 8IJECFZ /FXT 5JNFT

Coupeville’s Taylor Ebersole twists his way to the hoop against Granite Falls Thursday. and Drew Chan, Pelroy, Carson Risner and Caleb Valko had two.

The Wolves (0-5, 0-9) play at Sultan (3-2, 5-6) Monday, Jan. 9, at 7 p.m.

Coupeville girls fall to Falcons, Tigers A late-game spurt wasn’t enough for the Coupeville High School girls basketball team as the Wolves fell 34-27 at South Whidbey Tuesday, then it was too much Peyton Spencer in a 57-34 loss at Granite Falls Thursday.

Coach Jackie Bykonen said against South Whidbey “we came out and decided to play smart and intense basketball the last five minutes of the game.�

Coupeville, spurred by a pressure defense, outscored the Falcons 12-8 in the final period but couldn’t overcome a 26-15 deficit.

The Wolves led 7-6 after the first period, then struggled in the second as South Whidbey (4-0, 6-4)

went into the locker room with a 20-10 lead, thanks to a well-executed half-court offense.

Bykonen said her team was hurt by hitting only six of 16 free throws and “unforced errors and lack of intensity until the last part of the game.�

Cassidi Rosenkrance scored 10 points for Coupeville, Jai’Lysa Hoskins seven, Katie Smith three, Bessie Walstad three, Lauren Escalle two and Bree Messner two.

Granite Falls’ Spencer, who scored 27 points, “killed us,�

Bykonen said. Overall, the Tigers “were faster and moved the ball very well,� she added.

While Spencer was running up points, no Coupeville player tallied more than Hoskins’ seven. Hailey Hammer scored six, Rosenkrance five, Escalle four, Taya Boonstra four, Walstad four, Smith two and Messner two.

Bykonen praised the hustle of Rosenkrance and Hoskins who “played hard and created a lot of turnovers.�

The Tigers (3-2, 7-4) used their quickness to sprint to a 21-7 firstquarter lead. The margin was 30-14 at the half and 42-22 after three quarters.

The league-leading Grizzlies (7-0, 10-1) started three players taller than Oak Harbor’s tallest starter but attacked from the outside, launching 30 shots from beyond the arc.

Coupeville artist stitches her way to Japan

3FCFDDB 0MTPO 8IJECFZ /FXT 5JNFT

Marianne Burr hand stitches a quilt. At left and right are parts of her winning quilt, “At the Circus.�

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

The circles within circles on Marianne Burr’s quilts seem to be the stars of the show, but upon closer examination, thousands of tiny stitches give life to Burr’s hand painted, hand stitched quilts. Rows and rows of colorful stitches give the circles a three-dimensional effect and add color and emotion.

Burr, of Coupeville, is no ordinary quilter as the art she entered into the 11th Quilt Nihon exhibition earned her the most impressive honor she’s ever been awarded: A one-week trip to Japan and the opportunity to teach a workshop there.

Burr has been to Japan twice to receive awards for her entries in the 9th and 10th Quilt Nihon exhibitions. Quilt Nihon is a major exhibition at the Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum. After opening in April, it will travel to other locations in Japan, then to France and other countries.

Only 70 to 80 pieces are selected from at least 15 countries, especially Europe, Burr said, adding that she was very pleased that her work, “At the Circus,� earned one of the top prizes, the Founder’s Award/Seto Award. “The Japanese have a great history of doing arts and crafts. Whenever I see something made by the Japanese I’m absolutely

impressed. I’m thrilled they like what I make,�

Burr said.

The first time Burr and her husband, Robert Wilkins, traveled to Japan to attend the awards ceremony, she was excited but nervous because she doesn’t speak Japanese. “I loved it! I am so thrilled I get to go back.

It’s a relaxing place to visit. It’s busy and there’s a lot of people but they’re all nice,�

Burr said, adding that the quilt show is “breathtaking� and that “it’s incredible to see such beautifully made quilts in person.�

Burr’s quilts don’t follow the typical quilting guidelines that involve sewing together small pieces of fabric. Instead, Burr paints patterns on silk, a process similar to hand painting silk scarves. Then she hand stitches on top of the painting to create depth, texture and design. “I think that maybe one of the reasons the Japanese are taken with my work is because they do it all by hand,� Burr said, describing a long-standing tradition in Japan.

She developed her art from a childhood of creating, including coloring, drawing and embroidery. These led to painting on silk. “And I wondered what it would look like if it was stitched,� Burr said.

At first, she didn’t consider her artwork to be quilting. Then local quilters told her that if she sewed a fabric backing onto her work, it would qualify as a quilt and she could enter it in shows.

Burr said she’s very grateful to the local quilting community for quilting tips because she never considered herself to be a quilter. “The basic theme of quilters is friendly and helpful and that makes it fun,� Burr said.

The majority of Burr’s quilts have distinctive circle designs, which were originally inspired by the flowers blooming in her yard. “Every place you look there’s circles. I guess I’m just going back to basic humanity because I like circles so much,� Burr said.

Once she started using circles and found out that the designs work well, “why change it?�

Burr has been working on quilts for approximately five years and she finishes three to four each year. “At the Circus,� which measures 49 by 62 inches, took nearly one year to complete. “These take a very long time and for me that’s good. I like being dedicated to a project,� Burr said. A lengthy project gives her time to make adjustments without rushing. “You start and you keep on going and amazingly, you finish eventually,� Burr said. “Once you’ve figured out you can do it, all the anxiety goes away.�

Burr spends a lot of time thinking and planning. She has a thick folder stuffed with sketches just for “At the Circus,� each slightly different as Burr entertained ideas of circle placement, color and borders. “I worked on ‘Circus’ for so long; there

were times I was so fed up. There were times it seemed it would never be right. But when I saw what the award was, I about fell off my chair,� Burr said, smiling. “It isn’t the dollar value of it, it’s the honor of it, that they want me to share my art with them.�

The dollar value has nothing to do with Burr’s art in general. She chooses to focus on creating art rather than the business side. “And it’s working,� Burr said happily. “Because I really like to go to these shows!�

She’s sold a few quilts at shows but Burr doesn’t worry about whether they sell or not; she creates art for the enjoyment of the process. “I always learn something when I make a new one and I enjoy that,� Burr said.

Burr said that all of her success, from awards at shows to seeing her work on the covers of magazines and in books, is “because I am still willing and I don’t worry about not making it in. If you love the doing of it, it hurts if it’s rejected but it’s not the end of the world.�

Burr will travel to Japan in April to receive her award for the 11th Quilt Nihon and enjoy her prize of a week-long stay in Japan at a later date.

Assisted Living Š 2010 A ll rights reser ved, Bonaventure Senior Living.

A few years back, my husband and I moved our wood stove into our shop and purchased a fireplace insert that heats the first level of our home using propane. We set the thermometer and it keeps us warm. But I will always enjoy the natural beauty of a wood stove.

Better yet, a backyard bonfire.

The faster our world processes information and the more connected we become to music and information, texting and public discourse, the more I value my simple pleasures and activities that force me to slow down.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say that I’m becoming more introverted, because I’m generally energized by people. I would say that I’m beginning to see the wisdom in learning how to quiet myself.

Unhooking from media at some point each day. Training my thoughts to focus on the sacred and the spiritual --- on God, Himself. He promises that if we learn how to enter into His very presence, He’ll gift us with genuine rest.

A growing number of medical experts tout a similar message: Get plenty of rest, aiming for seven to eight hours of nightly sleep. They point to studies indicating improved relationships and increased weight loss if that’s your goal.

And while both results are good

enough to entice me into bed at an earlier hour, so I can hop out of bed early to meet my friend Leslie at the gym, I believe wholeheartedly that the rest our bodies require is much different than the rest needed by our souls.

One of my favorite books is “Simple Abundance� by Sarah Ban Breathnach and she includes an outstanding list of ways to rest your soul. This list includes things like cultivating an attitude of gratitude. Keeping your house picked up.

Breathing deeply and often. Learning how to say, “No.� Savoring the beauty around you. Not answering the phone during dinner. Surrendering expectations. I’m all in favor of this list. It’s appropriate for men and women, young and old. Good stuff, I say!

But how can you allow the beauty to calm your soul if you’re experiencing deep emotional and spiritual pain? Your spouse has just died. You are at odds with a family member. You feel guilty about an unresolved situation. You can’t see God’s work in your life or feel His touch. You can’t find meaningful employment.

These are the things that tire our souls and the very things God is there to soothe. But we must take some steps.

We must be willing to get quiet. Read about God to understand the ways He demonstrates His love for us. Choose a mentor who has experiences with God, can listen to our frustrations, pray for us and offer helpful suggestions. Learn how to worship.

It’s a lifetime of quiet discovery. But it’s time well spent for it will nurture a relationship that will rest our souls.

Blood drive has online option in Coupeville Donate blood Thursday, Jan. 19, at the Coupeville United Methodist Church, 608 N. Main St., between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m.

Online reser vations can now be made. The Coupeville Lions Club has

been working with the Puget Sound Blood Center to improve the donor experience and to reduce wait times. An online reservation system has been implemented to allow donors to better plan their day. To

make an appointment, go to www.psbc.org/programs/ drive.asp?URL=0677.

Walk-ins are still welcome but appointments will have priority. If you donated on or before Nov. 24, 2011, you are eligible to donate

again.

Thank you to all the wonderful blood donors that came out to donate during the last drive, Nov. 10, at the United Methodist Church in Coupeville. There were 102 donors registered, 88 pints

of blood collected and nine first-time donors in another amazing turnout. Because one pint of blood can save three lives, Coupeville’s blood drive helped the lives of 264 patients in hospitals throughout Western

Washington.

Forty Lions, including some from the Central Whidbey Lions Club, helped with the last drive.

For information, contact Paddy Roberts, 678-8746 or patbill@rapidwifi.com.
