‘Dr. Z’ quits hospital board

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Dr. Paul Zaveruha resigned his elected position Monday as a commissioner for the hospital district that operates Whidbey General Hospital in order to devote his time to surgery.

“The most satisfying work for me has always been providing care to

patients,” he said. “I’m getting back to my roots.”

Zaveruha, commonly known as “Dr. Z,” is himself an institution at the hospital and has probably operated on a sizable percentage of Whidbey Island residents over the last 30 years.

A long line of his biggest fans — both patients and fellow physicians — detailed his qualities and

This year, participants in the Whidbey Island Marathon on Sunday, April 15 will again enjoy the thrill of running across the scenic and historic Deception Pass Bridge at the start of the popular event.

Marathon participants had the opportunity to run across the bridge years ago, but this will be the first time the bridge will be included in the route since the city of Oak Harbor purchased the marathon several years ago. However, some early-morning motorists

may not be so happy: It means the bridge will be briefly closed on the morning of April 15.

Tamra Sipes, the city’s marathon organizer, said that getting a permit from the state to run the marathon across the bridge involved a lot of work and many meetings. But it just didn’t seem right to have a marathon start at Deception Pass without letting participants run across the famous bridge.

Dave Chessom, spokesman for the Department of

The Oak Harbor School Board and community members selected a preferred levy option for the 2014 local levy at Monday night’s school board meeting.

Superintendent Rick Schulte said plans are for the school board to finalize a levy decision at the April 30 or May 14 board meeting, after further community discussion at levy meetings at 6 p.m.

Mondays, April 16 and 23, held in the school district office.

While the lowest of three options, the preferred levy would charge property owners more than double what they’re paying now with a rate of $1.93 or $2.15 per thousand of assessed value, depending on the addition of allday, everyday kindergarten, a hot topic at this meeting and past school board meetings after the district switched to all-day, every other day kindergarten.

The current levy rate is 92 cents, which cost homeowners with $200,000 valuation approximately $184 in 2011.

The board discussed three possible levy options. The selected option is the minimum amount needed to sustain the school dis-

trict, Schulte said, emphasizing the need for flexibility to cope with upcoming state and federal changes to school funding.

This levy version would collect $8.1 million, including state levy match funding. That restores some of the cuts made over the past years but not all of them.

It protects and preserves what the district has cut without adding new programs, Schulte said.

“We’re responsible managers of our resources. We understand the times we’re living in,” Schulte said of the choice not to restore all the cuts already made.

This levy option would restore 20 teachers or other certified positions that were cut, the 30 minutes cut from middle school days, the seven half-days inserted to cope with teacher pay cuts, the activities and after-school tutoring bus, some tech, maintenance, grounds, custodial and clerical staff, as well as give additional funding for

New business brings the party to Oak Harbor the newly opened Whidbey Party Store.

Robyn and Orin Kolaitis, owners, held a grand opening celebration March 29.

“It was desperately needed on the island,” Robyn Kolaitis said of the party store, which features supplies for everything from weddings to graduation to baby’s first birthday.

“I knew a whole lot of moms driving to Burlington every time they had a party.”

And all she’s heard since the store’s opening has been how great it is to have a party store on the island again.

Already, the store has sold out of Angry Birds balloons, which are based on the popular video game, but there’s still an entire wall dedicated to balloons for every occasion.

“No one’s stumped me yet,” Kolaitis said.

She’s taking pre-orders for Mother’s Day balloon bouquets, which feature fancy bundles of balloons shaped like flowers, chocolates and more. Kolaitis said the elegant black and white bouquet is her favorite.

It’s the new home of Darth Vader pinatas and fluffy feather boas. Angry Birds balloons, classy candles and zebra-print plates and cups are also in stock because it’s party time once again in Oak Harbor.

Another aisle is decked out in purple and gold in preparation for high school graduation. Decorations and items in the colors of all three Whidbey Island high schools are available.

Their products are highquality but affordable, the Kolaitises said. From Root candles in a wide variety of colors and scents to top-notch wedding decorations, guest books, invitations and more in a number of themes, the store can bring any party to life.

An important aspect of the store is the push to sell locally crafted party items. A variety of locally made cupcake wrappers by Sprout’s Custom Creations and candles by Harbor Glow, which used to be located on Pioneer Way, are available. The cupcake wrappers come in colorful designs, including ducks, flowers and solid hues. Harbor Glow will refill the candles at a discount.

The store also carries Wilton, a brand that offers cookie and cake decorating supplies.

“It was much needed on the island, it was lacking. We brought in as much as could fit on the shelves,” Kolaitis said.

There are life-size cutouts, from John Wayne to Cinderella, and a crowd of pinatas, of which Kolaitis’ favorite is the Transformers pinata. Part of an aisle is dedicated to soccer, which Kolaitis said she made sure to get in for soccer season.

When people come down one aisle, the ladybug set elicits cries of, “Oh, how cute that is!” Kolaitis said. Treat bags, balloons, hats and even a high-chair kit come decorated in the red, black and white ladybug design.

Tammi Huckelberry, one of three employees, said she enjoys the baby items the most as she prepares for the birth of a grand-baby.

“And I really love our fabulous line with the boas --- it’s really fun,” Huckelberry said.

“I have people come in all day long to tell me they’re so glad to have a party store in town. We’re just as happy to be here as they are to have us,” Huckelberry added.

The Kolaitises have a couple of extra “employees” when their 8- and 5-year-old daughters visit the store.

“They’re just really excited about the store,” Kolaitis said,

Put new taxes before the public, commissioner Emerson urges

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Island County’s lone Republican commissioner made a surprise proposal to her Democratic colleagues Monday that would require new property taxes or fees being considered by the board to first pass the test of public opinion.

Commissioner Kelly Emerson unveiled a draft ordinance that, if adopted, would force the board to put new assessments or fees on a non-binding “citizens advisory ballot.” The idea is to “obtain an understanding of the sentiment of the public on an issue” before action is taken.

The draft ordinance included language that addressed how “the board realizes the dire impact any new tax increases have on the people, a large portion of which are on a fixed income,” how “the board understands that wage earners in the county cannot simply absorb tax increases without diminishing their quality of life,” and how “the board is acutely aware of the need for certainty in order to pique the interest of private investment and thereby improve our economy.”

Emerson, a member of

the Tea Party, acknowledged that several steps must still be taken before the ordinance could be formally adopted but expressed optimism over the proposal’s future.

“It hasn’t been before ‘legal’ yet but I don’t think it needs much work,” Emerson said.

Several Whidbey and Camano Island residents were in attendance and criticized local taxes. Many addressed the Clean Water Utility, which if funded with a per parcel fee adopted in 2010 to fund county surface water and ground water programs. The basic $40 fee showed up on property tax statements for the first time this month.

“I’m here to really complain about taxes,” said Edward Drum, an Oak Harbor resident.

“In my view that’s like being taxed in the state of Washington for a rain tax,” he said, referring specifically to the clean water utility.

But while Emerson will find support for her proposal among people like Drum, it’s unclear whether that will extend to her fellow board members, Island County Commissioners Helen Price Johnson and Angie Homola.

It’s Back! OUR

AnnuAl IRS SupeRSAle

FRIdAy ApRIl 13, SATuRdAy ApRIl 14, & SundAy ApRIl 15!

Price Johnson said she was caught off guard by Emerson’s idea and wished she’d had time to think and talk about it during their informal Wednesday meetings.

“I would prefer that we have these sorts of measures come to work session so we have a chance to read it ahead of time and actually talk about it with each other so that we could work on things collaboratively and not just trot them out on a Monday meeting,” Price Johnson said.

“If this is of importance to you, I think it should be scheduled for work session and we can talk about it,” she said.

Price Johnson said she would also like to have a “full accounting” of what Emerson’s proposal would cost.

Homola also urged caution, saying that Emerson’s proposal requires additional consideration.

“I agree with Commissioner Price Johnson,” Homola said.

“This requires a little bit of time and thought.”

She also asked that the board be supplied with the county’s history of adopted tax increases before Tim Eyman’s 2001 state initia-

tive, which limited non-voter approved increases to just 1 percent per year.

“Prior to that, it was as high as 6 percent and there is a history of this board many times using the full 6 percent; never have they not at least opted for the 1 percent, as far as I know,” Homola said.

She also said the county has lost millions in revenue in recent years and been forced to make hefty cuts.

That can’t be done without some consequence, she said.

“I think it’s important to recognize that,” Homola said.

Finally, the commissioner defended the clean water utility, saying it was adopted in response to a rising need and is funding myriad programs, ranging from those that focus on storm and surface water to those dealing with shellfish protection and low impact development rules.

“It is a struggle, I’m sure,” Homola said. “But we have to figure out a way to come on board with those things that are coming our way as our population increases,” she said.

Dr. z CONTINUED FROM A1 but seems to have infinite stamina.

It’s been Zaveruha’s role as a hospital commissioner, however, that’s made him a target of criticism from a couple of vocal detractors over the past year. Ironically, he said it was the accusations that kept him from resigning last year, as he had originally planned.

“In July of 2011, charges

www.WhiDBEYNEWSTIMES.com

were made against me by two concerned citizens regarding supposed conflict of interest and false claims of prohibited financial arrangements between my commissioner role and Whidbey General Hospital,” he read from his letter of resignation. “This of course made it necessary for me to see this through the Washington State Auditor’s investigation of these charges and delayed my plans to resign from my commissioner status.”

Zaveruha said the state Auditor’s Office completely

exonerated him of the false charges with a finalized report filed in January, which freed him to resign.

The accusations came from Greenbank attorney Rob Born and Dr. Mark Borden, former emergency department director. Born, a selfstyled investigative reporter, writes the “Whidbey General Reformers” blog that’s very critical of hospital administration; the title of issues on the blog include “Is WGH Corrupt at the Top?” and “Who’s to Blame for WGH’s Bad Reputation?”

The men have questioned whether Zaveruha has a conflict of interest by working as the director of Emergency Medical Services and being a hospital commissioner, even though the state auditor has twice ruled that there’s no conflict. Born also accuses him of wielding his influence to inappropriately control the board of commissioners and the hospital in general.

In his blog, Born proposed that he would stop writing if the hospital asked the state Attorney General’s Office for an opinion of whether Zaveruha does indeed have a conflict, but hospital officials declined the offer. In his latest posts, Born wrote an investigative piece on the salaries of hospital paramedics,

Wednesday, April 11, 2012 • Whidbey News-Times

while the EMS renewal levy is on the November ballot.

Born couldn’t be reached for comment about whether the resignation would affect his blog.

The commissioners and some members of the public criticized the attacks on Zaveruha. Commissioner Ron Wallin said Zaveruha “has taken quite a beating,” but it was based on misconceptions about the board.

“The idea that he ran this board offended all of us,” he said. “It’s not the case. He was a participant. He was one of five votes.”

In his short statement, Zaveruha said it’s been rewarding to see the hospital survive “extreme difficulties and still remain true to its

“The challenges have not stopped but I am confident we have the right people in place on the Board of Commissioners, and the CEO, Mr. (Tom) Tomasino, and the entire team through the hospital,” he said.

Kempbell’s a natural for volunteer of the year

By NATHAN WHALEN Staff reporter

Sammye Kempbell’s efforts to restore damage at Deception Pass State Park earned her a major state award.

Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission named the Coupeville resident “Volunteer of the year” for her efforts to develop a naturalist program and restore the Rosario Beach tide pools located on the Fidalgo Island side of Deception Pass State Park.

“We’re seeing dramatic results at the tide pools,” said Jack Hartt, manager at Deception Pass State Park, who nominated Kempbell for the award.

Kempbell, over the years, has volunteered more than 300 hours at the tide pools, where she can often be seen during low tides. She has also implemented a naturalist program where she trains a team of volunteers as educators, who are on hand to inform visitors of the delicate environment at the tide pools. She has trained volunteers for two years in a program inspired by the Beach Watchers. A series of trails has also been installed at Rosario Beach to guide people through the tide pools while minimizing harm to the area.

Kempbell said the

Nathan Whalen/Whidbey News-Times

Coupeville resident Sammye Kempbell shows some of the sea shells she uses to educate folks visiting the Rosario Beach tide pools at Deception Pass State Park. naturalists are on hand to explain the environment and to show visitors the importance of the trails. She added that most people are appreciative of their efforts and cooperate with the trail system.

The tide pools were damaged in the mid-1990s when more than 1,000 students from mainland schools showed up at the same time

for field trips. With so many students, they collected all of the vegetation and wildlife living in the tide pools.

“The whole ecosystem has to recover for life to be abundant again,” Kempbell said.

She was flattered by the award, which she received during a ceremony last week in Port Townsend.

“I work hard too, but

it’s always nice to get recognized,” Kempbell said, adding that she accepted the award on behalf of all of the other volunteers at Deception Pass.

In 2011, volunteers for Washington State Parks performed 271,260 hours of work, which is the equivalent of 130 full-time employees.

IN OUR OPINION

No hats off to the council No hats at Oak Harbor City Council meetings? That’s going too far in restricting freedom of expression.

The “no hats” policy was proposed by newly appointed City Councilman Joel Servatius as a way to make the public look more respectful toward the council. This would be a blow to Mel Vance, a periodic candidate and frequent commenter before the council. The fact he wears a ball cap at the microphone takes nothing away from his comments, which are usually thoughtful and helpful.

At the same meeting, Councilman Rick Almberg proposed that the public comment portion of the meeting be moved from the top of the agenda to the bottom. This is worse than that hat proposal, as by the time the council finishes its meetings most thoughtful people have left for home. The only ones remaining often are wearing tinfoil hats.

Servatius has contributed positively to council discussions since his appointment in February to fill the vacancy created when Scott Dudley was elected mayor. We’ll chalk up his hat proposal to inexperience in the public arena. Elected officials simply have to respect the great unwashed who don’t wear suits and ties and sometimes wear stocking caps, baseball caps or hoodies. After all, they’re not the ones we trust to do the right thing, such as deciding where to put a $100 million sewer plant and how to pay for it.

Almberg’s recommendation simply suggests he’s too thin-skinned. From the Pioneer Way project to the foreseeable Indian bone discoveries to the location of the new sewer plant, he’s taken plenty of public criticism. But his proposal to muffle the public by putting them last on the agenda is not worth further consideration.

Mayor Scott Dudley was correct in stating that he’s very concerned about talk of trying to control what the public says or wears.

The public comment period is a great way to open the meetings, and no doubt boosts the TV viewership.

People have a couple of minutes to spout off, and in fact comments are more likely to be positive than negative.

Putting the public first should be common sense for any elected official. And what comes out of their mouths has nothing to do with what’s on top of their heads.

Letters to the editor It’s past time to decide

1. For several long weeks (months?), the majority of Island County commissioners has been unable to make a decision on a simple issue.

Our three commissioners have been haggling about how to divide travel money among themselves to do their county related work while away from Coupeville.

2. Weeks (months?) ago, Commissioner Emerson made her position clear. She wants an even three-way split. Equal opportunity for each commissioner to represent us. Equal respect among equals? Nah. Commissioner Homola wants a complex equation weighing the value she places on each of the other commissioners’ efforts. Commission Chair Price-Johnson seemed to

agree with Emerson, but wanted Emerson to compromise and to accept some of Homola’s views and controls. Her “consensus” thing again. Weeks (months?)!

3. Emerson got tired of wasting time on making such an easy decision. Emerson reminded Homola and Price Johnson that they have instructed her they have two votes to her one vote.

Emerson suggested the two go ahead and do what they want, “You have the votes.”

That was too hard. They will spend more time thinking about this ...

4. Grow up ladies, get off the dime. Make a fair and equal decision. Quit wasting time and money on such an easy and obvious call.

Respect the voters who elected you. Treat each other as equals with different political views. The voting public will sort things out with our

Hitler comparison never appropriate In regards to the letter in the Whidbey NewsTimes from Robert Brown (removing the opposition), it was absolutely detestable.

To compare a small town mayor that terminates three city employees to Hitler, the most evil man in history, is outrageous.

You do know that Hitler almost exterminated an entire race of people. That was really an insidious illustration and you need to take a course in history 101. Believe me, you didn’t do the former fire chief any favors with that comparison.

Mayor Dudley applied his right that comes with

his job according to the city constitution. If you read this letter Mr. Mayor, every letter states they are a 20-plus year friend of the former fire chief. This is just the goodold-boy network exercising its right to free speech, no matter how reprehensible the letter is.

By the way, Mr. Brown, the police chief wasn’t fired, but retired, so you need to get your facts straight. There is a talk show host that has a policy that any person who compares another person to Hitler will be immediately disconnected. I have heard him do so when someone made the comparison with Obama. I am very surprised the editor even published this letter as the paper clearly states they have discretion regarding letters that are not appropriate.

VFW Egg Hunt

levy CONTINUED FROM A1

Kathy Reed/Whidbey News-Times

About 100 children were on hand for the annual Veterans of Foreign Wars Easter egg hunt, held at 1 p.m. Sunday at the VFW Post on Goldie Road in Oak Harbor. Children were divided into four different age groups for the hunt. There were 200 eggs hidden in each group. Two eggs in each division contained a special ticket that allowed the finder to trade the ticket for an Easter basket. Planning and preparation for the event began more than a month ago and was organized by Mary Jones. Once given the go-ahead Sunday afternoon, eager egg hunters took less than five minutes to clear the field of the colorful, plastic eggs.

textbooks, technology, activities and asset preservation.

This would put students at approximately $100 above the current state average of funding per student but still $250 to $1,100 below the funding per student at nearby schools and other schools with large miliary populations, Schulte said.

“The fact of the matter is, I’m tired of being below average,” said Oak Harbor High School Principal Dwight Lundstrom. Currently, Oak Harbor students receive from $400 to $1,800 less funding per student than comparable districts, according to Schulte.

Teachers and community members who attended the meeting stressed the importance of everyday kindergarten as the foundation of education. At the next meetings, the board and community will address whether to include all-day, everyday kindergarten in the levy or if it should be added as a second proposal. This kindergarten proposal would cost an additional rate of 22 cents.

While school board member Christine Cribb said she is a supporter of all-day, everyday kindergarten, she said she wouldn’t support adding it to the levy, since the focus of the levy is on restoring cuts, not adding new programs. In the past, the district has had half-day, everyday kindergarten.

“It isn’t an extra,” kindergarten teacher Kathy Ridle said of kindergarten. She said today, kindergarten is like first grade because it teaches necessary math,

Superintendent Rick Schulte presents three levy options to the Oak Harbor School Board and community members at a forum Monday night. The audience voted for the option asking for the least amount of money from taxpayers.

“We must pass a levy. I’m totally convinced failure to pass a levy would be devastating to the school and community.”

reading and writing skills.

Schulte pointed out that the state has said it plans to fund kindergarten, “as soon as they have the money.”

The state phased it in for 20 percent of schools but stopped just before reaching two Oak Harbor schools.

“I want to say, oh my gosh, let’s go for $4, but I can’t afford that,” said North Whidbey Middle School parent Janet Corbin, who said she’s spoken to other parents about the levy and they just can’t afford it. However, she supported the option

Ebey’s Landing design guidelines earn planning award The town of Coupeville, Island County and Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve earned recognition for new rules designed to help protect the historic integrity of most of Central Whidbey Island.

The Washington Historic Preservation Commission honored the three entities with an award for outstanding achievement in preservation planning for their efforts to develop a unified set of guidelines for the 17,000-acre reserve.

Officials worked for years developing guidelines that provide a consistent set of regulations and process to help people wishing to build within the confines of the reserve or to renovate and update their historic homes.

Mark Preiss, manager at Ebey’s Landing, said the award recognizes efforts of residents, members of planning commissions, review committees, design review board and leaders of the reserve, town and county who worked to develop the new rules.

Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard said during Tuesday’s Town Council meeting that it had been several years since the state agency gave out an award in preservation planning.

Preiss had submitted the nomination in early March and learned of the decision last week.

A ceremony for the award is scheduled for May 8 at the State Capitol in Olympia.

Transportation, said the state issues such permits on a case-by-basis. For the marathon, he said the organizers are taking several steps — including running a shuttle service for participants — to ensure the shortest closing time.

The marathon takes runners and walkers on rolling country back roads and breathtaking waterfront coastlines. The Whidbey Island Marathon was named in the “Top 10 Places To Run A Marathon” in Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2010.

This year, the 5K Fun Run/Walk is on Saturday, April 14, while the marathon and half marathons are on Sunday, April 15.

Sipes said the event is on track to attract approximately 1,800 participants, which is about the same as recent years.

“People have been signing up like crazy now that the weather is so nice,” she said, adding that it’s not expected to be windy or raining this weekend.

In addition, nearly 500 volunteers will

that was chosen.

“We must pass a levy. I’m totally convinced failure to pass a levy would be devastating to the school and community,” Schulte stressed, adding that failure to pass the levy would result in loss of class time, cuts to athletics and activities, lack of maintenance and more that would resort in families moving out of the school district, which has happened in the past.

“We’ve got a really good school district and we need to maintain that,” Schulte said.

be involved to make sure everything runs smoothly.

Sipes encourages everyone in the community to attend the free Expo. More than 30 vendors, including some major companies, will show their wares and hand out goodies to all. Packet pick-up for all registered participants will be held at the Expo, along with registration for any new marathon or half marathon participants.

The Expo is located at the North Whidbey Middle School from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday, April 14.

More than $5,000 will be awarded to the top male and female finishers of the full and half marathon events. All marathon and half marathon finishers will receive a long-sleeve tech shirt, a finisher’s medal, loads of food as well as an opportunity to enjoy the live band and party at the finish line.

The 5K Fun Run/Walk, which includes a finisher medal to all along with a goodie bag, will be held on Saturday morning at Flintstone Park at 9 a.m. on April 14.

Registrations and more information about the marathon can be found at City Hall in Oak Harbor or online at www.whidbeyislandmarathon.com.

Lakewood nips Wolves 3-2 in tennis

4 win for WIRC Four Whidbey Island Running Club members and one of their coaches won their divisions at the Skagit Runners Tulip Run Saturday at the Skagit Regional Airport.

Caleb Thompson, 14, led the way by placing first in his age group and third overall in the two-mile race in 12 minutes.

Other winners for WIRC, which is sponsored by the North Whidbey Parks and Recreation District, were Carolynn Wicker (girls 1113) Logan Clark (boys 1113), Harrison Keating (boys 8 and under) and coach Janel Thompson (women 30-34).

Jim Waller/Whidbey News-Times

Coupeville’s Allie Hanigan returns a shot in first singles in the Wolves’ 3-2 loss Monday.

prep roundup

A two-out single in the sixth broke the scoreless tie.

The Wildcats (1-6, 3-7) host Everett (4-3, 4-5) at 4 p.m. today.

D shines in CHS wins

Wolf rally falls short

A pair of stellar defensive efforts carried the Coupeville High School soccer team to two wins.

The Wolves won 1-0 in a shootout at Sultan Friday and slipped by visiting Lakewood 2-1 Monday.

In the win over Sultan, goalie Zach Forland recorded his second consecutive shutout, including two sets of overtime periods.

Assistant coach Gary Manker, subbing for Paul Mendes who was tending to a family matter, said Forland “was a strong presence in the net.”

He added, “It has been a total team effort on defense and we continue to work hard, locking down our opponents’ attacks. Our offense created chances all night long and kept Sultan’s defense scrambling.”

After the scoreless regulation and overtime periods, Coupeville fired home all four of its shootout attempts thanks to Josh Wilsey, Nathan Lamb, Luke Pelant and JP Ward.

Sultan (0-6, 0-8) responded by netting its first two shots but had the next pair bounce off the crossbar, according to Manker.

Manker said, “It is difficult to win on the road in this league and I am proud of our team’s ability to stay strong and focused through yet another intense game.”

Against Lakewood, Dylan Tack scored first in the 20th minute on “a great solo effort,” according to

Mendes.

Taking on three defenders, Tack finished with a chip shot over the Cougar keeper.

Lamb scored from 20 yards out in the 50th minute, then it was time for the Coupeville defense to do its thing.

Both teams created scoring opportunities throughout the match, and Lakewood picked up the pressure over the final 20 minutes.

The Cougars’ goal came in the 60th minute, stopping a string of five halves and four overtimes of scoreless goalkeeping by Forland.

Mendes said, “Time and time again, Lakewood created chances and our defenders made big plays to preserve the win. Our good defensive play has been the key to our wins the last three league games.”

The Coupeville (3-3, 4-3) defense will get a stiff test when it entertains first-place Archbishop Murphy (7-0, 8-0), which averages six goals per match, at 6 p.m. tonight.

T-birds shutout ‘Cats A strong pitching performance

by Grant Schroeder wasn’t enough as the Oak Harbor baseball team lost 2-0 at Shorewood Friday.

Schroeder combined with Zach Zimmer, who entered in the sixth, to toss a four-hitter, but the Wildcats countered with only three hits off Thunderbird pitchers Ian Oxnivad and Sam Boone.

A late outburst came up short for the Coupeville High School fastpitch team as it lost 8-5 to visiting Cedarcrest Friday.

Down 8-0, the Wolves picked up a run in the sixth and then put a scare into first-place Cedarcrest (6-1) by rallying for four runs in the seventh.

Three consecutive two-out hits helped Cedarcrest scoot to a 2-0 lead in the first. The Red Wolves tacked on another pair of runs in the third and then added four more in the fourth before being shut down over the final three innings.

Coupeville starter McKayla Bailey tossed the scoreless fifth, and reliever Ali Trumbull put up zeroes in the sixth and seventh.

Coupeville’s uprising in the seventh started with Arianna Johnson’s double to left. Madi Roberts got on board on an error that scored Johnson. Trumbull followed with a double and Bessie Walstad walked to load the bases.

Hailey Hammer singled in two runs and Walstad scored the final run on a passed ball.

Cedarcrest finished with 12 hits while the Wolves ended with five, two by Trumbull.

Co-coach David King said, “Offensively we started slow; this has been our pattern the last two games. The coaches have been preaching intensity and being aggressive on offense and playing the

whole game that way, not waiting until the later innings.”

He added, “Defensively, this was our best game. We played error free.”

The Wolves (3-3, 4-4) play Archbishop Murphy (2-5) at home at 4 p.m. Thursday.

‘Cat golfers place 20th The Oak Harbor High School boys golf team finished 20th out of 24 teams at the 11th annual Tom Dolan Invitational at the Everett Golf and Country Club Monday.

Jason Himple, assistant golf pro at EG&CC, said, “Another fantastic tournament with perfect weather. With those conditions, the scores we had were some of the lowest in recent years with six players breaking par.”

Ben Richards of Glacier Peak took medalist honors with a 68.

Kamiak won the team title with a 296; Oak Harbor posted a 378.

For Oak Harbor, Elias Whitefoot tied for 16th in the individual standings with a 78. Caleb Knack shot 96, Quinnton Wallace 98, Hunter Adams 106 and William Poe 115.

The Wildcats and Lynnwood go to Mountlake Terrace at 3 p.m. tomorrow.

Oak Harbor does not have a home match until 3 p.m. Thursday, April 19.

Tigers top Wolves 6-2 Early errors pushed the Coupeville High School baseball team into a hole and the Wolves lost 6-2 at home to Granite Falls Mon-

The Coupeville tennis team won two doubles contests but visiting Lakewood took the match 3-2 Monday, April 9.

The Wolves received wins from No. 1 doubles Lexi Blanchette and Amanda d’Almeida (6-1, 6-1) and No. 2 doubles Grayson Akins and Holly Craggs (6-1, 6-4).

The difference maker was third doubles where Emily Gallahar and Breanna Koym were edged 6-7(5-7), 1-0(75), 1-0(7-4).

Coach Ken Stange was forced to juggle his lineup with No. 1 singles player Emily Burchfield absent.

Allie Hanigan moved from second singles to first, and third doubles player Julia Myers moved to third singles.

Stange said, “Allie and Julia played well, but fell a bit short.”

Hanigan lost 6-7(7-3), 3-6; and Myers fell 2-6, 1-6.

day.

The Tigers mixed two errors with two hits to score a pair of unearned runs in the second inning, then added another run off starter Brandt Bodamer in the third.

Coupeville trimmed the lead to 3-1 with a run in the fourth. Jake Tumblin reached on an error and stole second, Morgan Payne hit an infield single to put runners at the corners and then a balk sent Tumblin home.

The Tigers added two runs in the fifth. After a walk, Coupeville failed to get the lead runner on a bunt. A hit batter loaded the bases and another walk forced in a run.

A double play limited some of the damage, but an infield hit plated another run.

The Wolves made it 5-2 when Kurtis Smith started the fifth with a single and eventually scored on an error.

Three singles off reliever Aaron Curtin helped the Tigers score the game’s final run in the sixth.

While the errors hurt, coach Willie Smith was more concerned with the Wolves’ lack of offense.

Coupeville had only five hits, the others coming from Drew Chan, Aaron Trumbull and Curtin.

Granite Falls (6-3, 6-4) had eight hits and six walks and left 12 on base.

The Wolves (0-7, 2-10) will look to pick up their first league win when the two teams meet again in Granite Falls at 4 p.m. today.

Coupeville plays Friday Harbor at Robert Sherman Field in a nonleague game at 4 p.m. Friday.

arrives at FRCNW

By KATHY REED Staff Reporter

A sailor at Fleet Readiness Center Northwest on Naval Air Station Whidbey Island is proof one person can make a difference.

Aviation Administrationman 3rd Class Stephen Anderson has made it his personal mission to get his fellow sailors to recycle, earning him the moniker “Captain Planet” at FRCNW, one of the largest commands on NAS Whidbey. He said it all started with a cup of coffee at the geedunk, or cafeteria.

“I noticed the cup was compostable,” Anderson said. “So I started looking for where I was supposed to throw it away, and no one knew where the compost bin was. I finally found it tucked back in a corner. Who would know it was there?”

Anderson did a little investigating.

“I talked to the Navy Exchange (Ault Field) about the compostables in the geedunk, and it turns out it cost the Navy 10 cents more to get the compostable cup, yet no one was using it appropriately. So I went to (Navy Whidbey Recycle) and got to talking.”

What he discovered, Anderson said, was that base recycling personnel were no longer going to be coming into the building to pick up due to lack of staff. So, after collaborating with folks at base recycling, Anderson came up with a plan and wrote up a proposal for placing recycling and compost bins in every work space in FRCNW. “We can work off the theory that 90 percent of everything we throw away is recyclable,” Anderson said. “At FRC alone, we could save $10,000 by recycling before we send out our trash, because the more you recycle, the more money you make and the more you save on sending trash out.”

Operating on the financial impact premise alone, Anderson thought his superiors would be interested in his idea and began routing his proposal up the chain of command.

When it didn’t get anywhere at first, he followed the advice of Aviation Administrationman Chief Pebble, and stuffed his proposal in the suggestion box of FRCNW’s commanding officer. Cmdr. Kimberly Schulz was indeed interested and Anderson found himself in a meeting with Schulz and other FRCNW leaders.

“We talked for an hour and formed a plan of attack,” said

Kathy Reed/Whidbey News-Times

AZ3 Stephen Anderson holds up a trash can in his office at Fleet Readiness Center Northwest. He pointed out that everything in the trash can was recyclable. Anderson has spearheaded an aggressive recycling program at FRCNW. Anderson. “We created a plan with a three-pronged approach: establishing a green team, getting office composting in place and educating sailors.”

Within a week and a half of that meeting, every workspace at FRCNW — and there are several, with 870 sailors assigned there — had bins in place for compost, paper and all other recyclables, such as aluminum, glass and plastic. And, just in time for Earth Month, the command’s green team held its first meeting in the FRCNW conference room April 3. About a dozen sailors were present, including Cmdr.

Schulz, Command Master Chief

Charles Bond, Chief Bill Yates and guest Janet Hall, of WSU Waste Wise.

“I cannot tell you how excited I am about this,” Hall said.

“This is great for the community and great for the Navy,” Anderson said. “But now that we’ve got it all in place, we have to keep the momentum going.”

Much of the meeting centered on getting procedures in place to keep the recycling program going smoothly, without interfering with sailors’ daily routines.

“I want this to be underwhelming, so we can keep doing our job,” Anderson said.

Hall provided guidance on basic recycling versus composting.

“Recycling is taking something you normally would have thrown away and processing it to use it again,” Hall said. “The number one reason we do this is cost. It reduces the amount of trash we have to ship off the island.

“Compost is basically decayed organic matter,” she continued.

“You’re taking something and allowing it to decay back to what it was. Composting is even more important because we can do it in our own backyards.”

Hall told sailors there is a difference between the base’s recycling center and what is available to most people on Whidbey Island. The base facility is capable of processing many more different types of recyclables and the composting facility is able to generate enough heat that things decay more quickly.

“What you can do at home in two months, they can do in 10 days at this facility,” Hall said.

Anderson said FRCNW typically generated about 150 pounds of material for composting each week. In the first week of the program, the command generated 370 pounds of compostable material.

Even during the week of the security exercise, FRCNW generated 300 pounds. Now the focus is to keep people using the program, something Cmdr. Schulz supports completely.

“If you can change the culture, you’ll be successful,” she said. “I’d rather it be infectious, that people are doing it for the right reason.”

Schulz said she would provide the green team with as many bulletin boards as they’d like throughout the building to promote the recycling effort and suggested making announcements regularly to help keep personnel thinking about it.

“All major changes start with a few dedicated people,” said Hall.

“You want to make it the norm, and that’s not hard to do if you have a consistent message and make it easy for people to do.”

Anderson said he is encouraged and excited by what he’s seen so far among his fellow sailors.

“This is a no-lose situation,” he said. “If we can prove this works, we can keep expanding this everoutward and make it a Navy-wide program. It’s neat to be a part of all that.”

DAR awards top student Poets go all out for Greenbank workshop, open-mic poetry bash Poets and poetry lovers are invited to register for an All-Day, All-Out Poetry Bash from 9:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Saturday, April 21 in Greenbank.

Popular master poets Lorraine Healy and Sarah Zale will teach two-and-ahalf-hour hands-on, craftpacked workshops for poets and prose-writers who wish to improve their poetic skills.

Participants will pick up instructions for the day at the Rob Shouten Gallery at the Greenbank Farm, and then attend small group sessions in private homes with participants switching venues after the lunch break.

Lunch is provided.

Zale’s class will examine the styles of different poets, discuss the extent to which their poems tell a story and then decide what poetic tools make a story powerful. Participants will then apply these tools to their own poems.

Zale teaches writing and poetry in the Seattle area and The Writers’ Workshoppe in Port Townsend. Her collection of poems, “The Art of Folding,” was inspired by her travels to Israel and Palestine. “The Refugee at Al-Arroub Fails to Explain” won the 2009 Anita McAndrews Award/

Sally Buckingham, Regent Whidbey Island Chapter NSDAR, and members of the Whidbey Island Chapter for the Daughters of the American Revolution, presented Lacy Williams with an award at the DAR Good Citizen Tea.

She plans to attend college in the fall for architecture.

Also in attendance were Leo D. Hymas, several members of the Govenor Issac Stevens DAR Chapter of Oak Harbor, Williams’ mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. Craig Williams and Marsha Statz, the Whidbey Island Chapter DAR Good Citizen Chairman.

Poets for Human Rights.

Her work also appears in the anthology “Come Together, Imagine Peace,” a finalist for the 2009 Eric Hoffer Award.

Healy is an Argentinean poet and photographer and the winner of several national awards, including a Pushcart Prize nomination for poetry in 2004. Her first full-length manuscript, “The Habit of Buenos Aires,” won the Patricia Bibby First Book Award and was published

by Tebot Bach Press in 2010.

HOW A FAMILY-OWNED FERRY SERVICE IS

GOING THE DISTANCE FOR LOCAL RESIDENTS — AND THE SEATTLE ECONOMY.

For more than 25 years, the iconic red-and-blue Clipper fleet has been ferrying commuters and vacationers alike between Seattle, Victoria, B.C. and the spectacular San Juan Islands. To keep the fleet as modern and comfortable as possible for passengers, Clipper Vacations began working with Bank of America in 2007.

We initially helped by restructuring loans that enabled engine upgrades, allowing the fleet to reach speeds of up to 30 knots. More recently, we provided financing to modernize the fleet’s interior cabins. It’s a relationship that’s not only helping to get Seattle residents where they need to go — it’s also helping to generate local economic growth: the family-owned fleet employs 150 people.

Clipper is another example of how we’re working to help locally based businesses grow and hire in the Puget Sound — and across the country. In 2011, we provided $222 million in new credit to small businesses in Washington — an increase of 28% from 2010.
