Candidate fails to meet all campaign rules But he won’t ask for money

Oak Harbor Police Officer Dennis Dickinson tries out a state-owned driving simulator that’s supposed to help officers become better drivers.

Cops speed, crash in virtual chases

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

The simulator training came without cost because officers went through training while on duty and no real cars were involved. Dyer said the simulator training is a supplement to the regular EVOC training.

Oak Harbor Police Officer Dennis Dickinson was one of the trainers who led other officers through simulations. The “car” is designed to be as similar to a real cop car as possible, with video screens instead of a windshield and side windows. The dashboard display can even change to mimic any number of cars, including Crown Vics.

Dickinson said the officers are supposed to follow their departments’ policy regarding police chases. As a trainer, he can jump into the scenario as another police car, a bad guy or See cops, A4

Phil Collier But it didn’t turn out that way because of a miscommunication. Skinner said he assumed that Collier’s treasurer, his wife Kathy Collier, would be submitting the reports, which is the usual practice. But the Colliers thought Skinner was doing it, so it didn’t get done until last Thursday.

“From my conversation with a representative from the Public Disclosure Commission, they will be satisfied with our explanation of what happened and even though the filing is late, they don’t believe it was anything actionable,” Skinner said. “So See Collier, A4

Cops from all over Whidbey Island and one newspaper reporter got the chance to chase bad guys, speed through city streets and even crash police cars last month.

The state loaned a high-tech driving simulator to law enforcement officials in Island County. The simulator, which is similar to a giant video game inside a trailer, is meant to help train officers handle a variety of high-stress or dangerous situations.

“The Washington State Patrol reports that they have experienced a 20 percent reduction in collisions since implementing a driving training program that utilizes a driving simulator as part of the training program,” reported Sgt. Rick Norrie, a traffic enforcement expert at the Island County Sheriff’s Office.

Lt. John Dyer with the Oak Harbor Police Department stressed that the training session was a cooperative effort of law enforcement agencies on the island, including the sheriff’s office, the Oak Harbor police, the Coupeville Marshal’s Office and the Langley police.

Dyer said he hopes to organize more such cooperative efforts among police agencies on the island because of budget pressures facing everyone.

“We’re looking at anything we can do to reduce the costs to all of us but still get the training we need,” he said.

Among the training sessions that police officers regularly have to complete are emergency vehicle operation courses, which officers refer to as EVOC. Dyer said it can be expensive for departments to put on the courses because of overtime and the wear and tear on cars.

First-time candidate Phil Collier has had some problems complying with the rules that govern political campaigns, though he describes them as small, nitpicky items that have nothing to do with the real issues.

Collier, an Oak Harbor businessman, is running as an independent candidate for the Island County commissioner seat currently held by Democratic Commissioner Angie Homola.

City Councilman Jim Campbell and Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce Director Jill Johnson are also running in the crowded race as Republicans.

Collier started his campaign aggressively, with big ads in a local shopper and campaign signs dotting the landscape before any of the other candidates. But while all the other candidates submitted details about contributions and expenses to the state Public Disclosure Commission, information submitted by Collier was noticeably absent.

Collier said he hired his longtime attorney, Christon Skinner of Oak Harbor, to advise him on the campaign.

“I was my first time running for office and I wanted to make sure I got everything just perfect,” he said.

McKenna helps Bailey kicks off Senate campaign

Wednesday, May 2, 2012 • Whidbey News-Times

Hundreds of people attend breakfast event at Elks Lodge

By NATHAN WHALEN Staff reporter

A campaign kickoff for a race that some think could alter the majority in the state Legislature drew hundreds of Republican party members, elected officials and community leaders to the Oak Harbor Elks Lodge Tuesday morning.

State Rep. Barbara Bailey wants to unseat Mary Margaret Haugen in the State Senate and she formally announced her campaign at a May Day breakfast.

“I’m extremely nervous.

It’s humbling to get up in front of an audience like this,” said Bailey, who has served as a 10th District representative for 10 years.

Washington Attorney General Rob McKenna, a candidate for governor, introduced Bailey. He said Bailey’s race is important because it

described Bailey as a friend to small business. that she understands the issues that need to be resolved to improve the business climate in the state.

“We’re going to lower the cost of doing business in the state,” McKenna said.

He targeted the high costs associated with the worker’s compensation system, the business and occupation tax and the regulations businesses are subjected to as areas that need reform.

McKenna added that Bailey has a tough race ahead

as it is difficult to defeat an incumbent such as Haugen, a veteran of several decades in the Legislature.

“We going to need you to doorbell, put up yard signs and contribute,” McKenna said, adding that word-ofmouth campaigning is the best way to run a successful election.

Several hundred Republican party members awakened early enough to attend the 7 a.m. breakfast.

Bailey took a second to recognize Dave Hayes, a Camano Island resident who is running for the House seat Bailey is vacating.

Bailey talked about her childhood growing up on a farm in Missouri, saying the farming background instilled the values she uses in the Legislature. She said she will work to protect the environment, knows the value of an education and will buck the current trend and spend only

Bailey expressed hope the November election will result in Republican control of both houses of the Legislature along with the governor’s office.

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.

collier CONTINUED FROM A1 it was simply a misunderstanding and Mr. Collier is in compliance now.”

The records show that Collier has placed $8,150 of his own money in his campaign fund, loaned himself $6,000 and owes $12,625.23.

In an interview Monday, he said he’s not going to accept contributions. He said he sent back dozens of donations he’s received with a message asking his supporters to contribute to charity on the island instead.

“With the economic downturn and so many people struggling, I just don’t feel comfortable with asking people for money,” he said.

Nevertheless, the public disclosure documents indicate that Collier actually missed two deadlines for submitting necessary forms to the state, according to Tony Perkins, the lead public finance specialist with the Public Disclosure Commission. Collier submitted his C-1 candidate registration form on March 21. He was obliged to also submit at the same time a C-4 form detailing receipts and expenditures to that point.

cops CONTINUED FROM A1 even a fence.

In one scenario, the police

Perkins pointed out that Collier had purchased a $1,275 ad from a shopper before March 21. Then Collier was supposed to file again on April 10, Perkins said, but again nothing was filed even though he spent $2,250 on another shopper ad and smaller amounts on labels and a parade entry fee.

One of Collier’s political rivals expressed concern about the disclosure oversight.

Johnson said full disclosure shines a light on the campaign process and on those who may try to influence it.

“Campaign finance laws came about at the request of the people. We wanted more transparency in the political process,” she said. “The decision to not adhere to the disclosure laws that govern a campaign brings into question any candidate’s commitment to open government.”

Homola said she understands that people make mistakes, but she feels what’s important is how the candidate reacts. In Collier’s case, she said, he blamed his attorney after the oversight persisted for six weeks. She pointed out that his campaign flyer claims “the buck stops here.”

“What I’m more concerned about is that his campaign business model involved

gambling with debt,” she said, “and he said he wants to run the county like a business. That kind of business plan doesn’t work with the people’s money.”

It appears that Collier’s brochures may also be out of compliance with the law, though at least one other candidate has the same problem.

Perkins said there is supposed to be a statement on the first page of a campaign brochure that includes who paid for the advertisement and the sponsor’s address.

On Collier’s brochures, the statement was on the last page.

“I don’t know anything about that,” Collier said. “I just brought it to the printer and said, ‘Do it right. Do it legal. Do everything that should be done right.’”

Campbell’s campaign flyer has the same oversight.

Johnson conceded that the issue of having the disclaimer in the right spot on a brochure is petty and she doubts voters will care.

Collier has also been criticized for his campaign signs, which some people wrongly thought violated the law because they didn’t include his party affiliation.

Perkins explained that a candidate’s campaign signs need to include a party affiliation

only after he or she officially files for office during the candidate filing period, which is May 14 to 18, and chooses a party affiliation. As a result, Collier’s signs are in compliance unless he writes in a party preference when he files; Perkins said independent candidates can choose no party preference and avoid the requirement.

While Collier may have violations, Perkins said it’s unlikely that the office would investigate unless there’s a complaint made.

The Public Disclosure Commission’s role is to collect reports from political candidates and ballot measure sponsors regarding campaign contributions and expenditures, provide these reports to the public and investigate any suspected violations; the agency was created in 1972 by a voter initiative and is currently chaired by Oak Harbor resident Barry Sehlin, a former state representative.

Perkins said the state has among the oldest public disclosure laws in the nation.

Because of this history, he said the vast majority of candidates are well aware of --and follow --- all the rules and technicalities.

“Public disclosure is just part of the political culture,” he said.

One problem with the simulator, Dickinson said, is that some people get nauseous. But he heard that more advanced versions of the simulator have solved the problem.

Dickinson said one of the best things about the simula-

tor is a camera that videotapes the driver in action. He said watching the playback has already helped officers identify some things they weren’t aware they were doing.

“We all pick up bad habits over the years,” he said.

“This kind of feedback can be really helpful.”

Weinsheimer named principal at NWMS

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

Oak Harbor High School Associate Principal Bill Weinsheimer was named the new principal of North Whidbey Middle School. He is replacing Laura Aesoph, who accepted the principal position at Olympic View Elementary School as current principal Martha Adams is retiring.

Weinsheimer taught philosophy and science for 10 years and has been associate principal at OHHS for seven years, four of which he managed the ninth-grade Island program.

Weinsheimer’s focus has been on helping students transition from middle to high school as he spent many years working with ninth-grade students.

“I’m really excited to work with the middle school to prepare for high school,” Weinsheimer said.

In his seven years working for the Oak Harbor School District, Weinsheimer said he has really gotten a sense of what the community wants and expects from its students,

Bill Weinsheimer as well as the opportunities for serving students here, especially students of military families. Weinsheimer said he is eager to serve these students whose families have made huge sacrifices for the nation.

“It’s a privilege to be able to work hard for these kids and help them,” Weinsheimer said.

Weinsheimer was selected from a pool of 22 applicants for the position.

A competitive search is planned to fill the associate principal position at the high school.

Whidbey largely dodges pertussis scare

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

The number of pertussis cases throughout Washington state has reached epidemic levels but so far Whidbey Island appears to have been spared, Island County health officials are reporting.

“It’s epidemic in the state and the majority are in Snohomish County,” said Roger Case, Island County health officer.

“We’ve actually had fewer cases than normal,” he said.

Pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, is a highly contagious bacterial disease that usually starts with cold-like symptoms, according to the Center of Disease Control. Within one to two weeks, however, symptoms increase to severe, even violent and rapid coughing fits.

The state Department of Health does monitor pertussis cases in every county and has been providing weekly updates. As of April 21, 1,008 cases have been recorded statewide this year.

That compares to just Join us for a complimentary lunch, call (360) 679-1400 to make a date!

110 cases documented during the same period in 2011.

Counties being hit the hardest include Snohomish County with 201 cases, Skagit County with 199, Pierce County with 131 and King County with 114. Most counties have between one and 50 cases and 12 counties have none whatsoever.

Although the state is reporting just 16 cases in Island County, Case said the number may actually be less, saying that he only knows of about eight. He did warn that people still need to be careful and get checked out if they have a cough that lasts longer than one week.

“They call it a childhood disease but it affects everyone,” Case said.

Of the total 1,009 cases, 828 of those afflicted have been 18 or younger with the remaining 180 patients aged 19 or older. Case urged anyone who has not yet received a DTaP vaccination to receive the immunization.

Wilma Patrick, hospital drive leader, passes

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Whidbey Island lost part of its history Saturday, April 28.

Oak Harbor resident Wilma Patrick, a driving forces behind the creation of Whidbey General Hospital and wife of late Judge Howard Patrick, passed away. She was 92 years old.

Wilma continued to be involved with the hospital, her church and community even as she became a lively nonagenarian. She is mourned by her many friends and supporters on the island.

“The loss of her steadfast support and leadership will be deeply felt by our hospital community and the Whidbey Island community writ large,” hospital spokesperson Trish Rose said. “She was a great, great lady ... and I miss her already.”

Wilma was among a group of women who started the Polly Harpole Guild, named after a woman who ran a birthing home, more than 50 years ago with the goal of building the island’s first hospital. Through a great deal of persistence, the guild’s efforts paid off with the opening of the hospital at a Coupeville site in 1970.

Wilma continued to be involved with the guild up

until her death. It still has about 50 members and raises about $10,000 a year for scholarships and equipment purchases at the hospital.

“We’ve worked closely together on many hospital activities. One thing I can say about Wilma was that she delivered,” Rose said.

“Sometimes she was the lead, sometimes she was a contributing team member, but regardless of her role, she put the same ‘no excuse’ effort to every project.”

Island County Superior Court Judge Alan Hancock said he got to know Wilma when he ran for Judge Patrick’s position with Island County Superior Court in 1988. Patrick was the first judge of the Island and San Juan County judicial district, but was required to retire because of the state constitution’s mandatory retirement age for judges.

“He was a mentor of mine, and I got know Wilma as the campaign moved ahead.

After I was elected, she continued to be a valuable source of support for me,” Hancock said.

Wilma was also a loyal

IN OUR OPINION

A tax that will tell voters a lot Island County Commissioner Kelly Emerson, a Republican with a tea party background, has never hid the fact that she’s against taxes but she picked a telling one to tackle by proposing that the Conservation Futures tax be placed on the August primary ballot for an “advisory” vote on whether it should continue.

Commissioners Helen Price Johnson and Angie Homola shot down the proposal after a long and heated debate, arguing in part that we have a representative form of government in which the electorate expects their representatives to make tough choices.

But there’s nothing tough about the Conservation Futures tax, adopted by an all-Republican board of commissioners in 1991, back when the county was growing rapidly and natural areas were under assault by developers. For a small tax, it has worked wonders.

The tax costs someone with a $300,000 property a piddling $15 a year. There is not enough space here to list all the good it has done over the years, but without it we wouldn’t have Ala Spit, Oak Harbor wetlands, the Greenbank Farm, Double Bluff beach, a critical heron rookery on Camano Island, and a host of other protective land acquisitions. The Conservations Futures tax has been a tremendous success, providing open spaces, wildlife habitat and waterfront access at very little cost to the public.

Emerson may be hoping that the word “tax” would turn voters off and they’d vote against Conservation Futures out of ignorance. There is a certain percentage of knee-jerk, anti-tax voters out there, but most Island County voters are thoughtful, love their public open spaces, and would vote to keep the Conservation Futures tax if such a vote were required. But and advisory vote would be a waste of time and money for all involved. The two Democrats were correct in rejecting the idea. They’re also correct that we have a representative democracy, and if you want change then vote someone new into office.

This year the two Democrats on the board are up for election. This is where the Conservation Futures tax may be decided. Don’t let any candidate, Republican, Democrat or Independent, wiggle out of answering directly whether or not they support the Conservation Futures tax. The answer will tell you a lot about the future they envision for Island County.

Letters to the editor Slang term used inappropriately This letter is in response to the article published April 21, titled “Oak Harbor Club Scout leader jailed for molestation.”

First off, this may be the first time that a parent will hear of this man’s involvement with sexual abuse of children. Just knowing that Anthony Polubinski is in jail is not going to ease the rage that many people feel.

He may have had years of contact with their child.

Furthermore, an editor should be able to sense the gravity of a situation before paraphrasing in offensive terms, such as “freak out.” A parent may feel many overwhelming emotions including anger, grief, guilt, shock, etc., and using slang terms to describe this is poor journalism.

Last and most important,

I’m pretty sure Prosecutor Greg Banks is not a trained health care professional.

His advice to “end the conversation and involve police” while I’m sure was well intentioned, is completely outrageous. Calling police is no doubt an urgent step in the process, where you will be put in contact with trained professionals.

However, the first disclosure of sexual abuse by a child to a parent is a very sensitive and important time. The reaction of a parent can aid or hinder a child in their recovery. A parent should first assure the child they believe them, they did nothing wrong, and explain what will happen next. Running to call 911 at “even an inkling” is irresponsible and will only serve to alarm the child.

Please provide links to reputable sources to aid parents in handling this very sensitive matter, before disseminating poor advice in a com-

Whidbey is losing its quiet I used to live on Whidbey and am now a frequent visitor. What a paradise Whidbey is, a quiet respite from the Seattle hubbub. But there is a problem. More and more people are firing up motors for work, for leaves and for recreation. ATV and dirt bike users need to know that while they are having fun, everyone within a mile (or more) is losing the peace and quiet they emptied their life savings to acquire. They can no longer hear the birds or the wind playing high in the trees.

Quiet isn’t nothing. It is something! Quiet is a powerful medicine for those who put in long days at work.

For those who endure hours of congested highways, the last thing they want to hear is the “rev rev” of a couple of dirt bikes run by a couple of kids having fun for a couple of hours. This letter is intended to inform or educate motor users. I assume that if the “user” is informed then natural kindness would kick in and the motor use would be remarkably reduced or moved to a more appropriate location.

But I would also assume that if the “user” clearly knows the adverse ramifications of their activity, and they continue regardless, then they are simply being mean! With this letter I ask for a good sense of neighborliness and kindness. Kindness is also a powerful medicine.

Letters to the editor 300 pounds of drugs collected As you are aware, April 28, 2012, was the Dr ug Enforcement Administration’s Fourth National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. Overall this was a huge success on Whidbey Island. We collected 300 pounds of drugs at our three collection sites (Island County Sheriff’s Precinct ffice in Freeland, Coupeville Police Department in Coupeville, and Oak Harbor Police Department in Oak Harbor).

The individual collections site numbers were as follows: 150 pounds collected at the Freeland Precinct, 100 pounds at Oak Harbor Police Department, and 50 pounds at Coupeville Police Department.

I would like to personally thank all those involved in advertising the event and those police agencies that agreed to participate in this very worthwhile program.

Together we can (and did) make a difference!

Camano Island residents are able to take advantage of Snohomish County’s yearround drug take back program and turn their unwanted prescription drugs into the Stanwood Police Department during normal working hours. The Snohomish County Drug Task Force Team coordinates this effort throughout Snohomish County. Thank you.

Just protect the status quo Mr. Jeff Lauderdale, candidate for county commissioner, has fallen into a honey trap that is the tea party, an ultra-conservative scheme begun by the billionaire Koch brothers from Texas.

The real impetus behind Mr. Lauderdale’s campaign is Mrs. Lauderdale, whose strengths are to be commended, and have been, through her husband’s rise from seaman to officer, a rise impossible without a woman.

Meanwhile, the women on the current board of commissioners are lost without a man.

The political truth lies in where we live. We are here on these islands because they are idyllic, but all candidates talk about change.

Why? They’re not going to make my life better, just more expensive because change is proposed by those who wish to fix what isn’t broken by

addition.

The role of government is to manage the status quo, in a day-to-day manner, on behalf of the residents who they represents. Not to think, nor act, nor promote in their own self interest.

Progress is a double-edged sword that few have been able to wield without drawing blood. Soon, they only way to build homes on Whidbey will be up. I won’t be living here.

Pity, it used to be a really nice place.

Be sure before sending money Just a reminder especially to senior citizens that if you are contacted by someone claiming that one of your grandkids needs financial assistance to return home from a foreign country, check with your family and then report the incident to local law enforcement.

Recently, a local grandmother sent $1,900 in response to such an account, only to find that it was a scam.

Never send money to anyone unless you are absolutely sure of who you are dealing with.

Here’s why ‘I like Jeff’ Election season 2012 is here and Jeff Lauderdale is the perfect choice for Island County Commissioner, District 1. Jeff stands out because of his leadership, integrity, knowledge, and experience (LIKE).

Leadership is the fundamental element that was developed and refined during Jeff’s 26-year, seaman to commander, career in the U.S. Navy. Jeff led hundreds of men and women during his service aboard Trident nuclear submarines. He became the executive in charge of department heads, division chiefs, all sailors, and civilians under him. Leadership provides direction and fosters unity and teamwork essential for success in the military, the private sector, or Island County government.

Integrity is recognized as honesty, sincerity, and accuracy in all of one’s actions.

Integrity is a stand out element within Jeff. Integrity is essential in the Navy and county government. Integrity is the nucleus that binds and strengthens leadership, knowledge, and experience.

When people meet and talk

David Jeter of Oak Harbor enjoyed this view of the Canoe Pass portion of the Deception Pass Bridge and surrounding scenery as he toured the area by boat. Photos for “Whidbey on Whidbey” may be submitted by email to news@whidbeynewsgroup.com with Jeff they soon recognize that he possesses this critical element. Jeff Lauderdale is honest, sincere, and accurate in both word and action.

Knowledge is possession of facts, truths, and principles acquired from research and experiences. Jeff Lauderdale is a critical thinker. He researches and analyzes issues then solves problems with available resources.

Jeff has studied and understands local issues such as the mandatory septic system inspection program; clean water utility district; numerous Growth Management Act requirements; urban growth areas; our rural character; and, the proposed new Freeland sewer controversy.

Jeff is an expert in budget processes ranging from establishing budgets, using zero based budgeting practices and managing billion dollar budgets.

Experience is practical knowledge, skill, or practice gained from direct observation of and participation in events in a particular activity. For the past two years, Jeff Lauderdale has attended Island County commissioner meetings, hearings, working sessions, Island County Council of Government meetings, Island Transit committee meetings, and many other local government related activities. Jeff Lauderdale knows what is going on in local government and how it impacts all of us. Jeff is a

researcher and analyzer of local and state issues who provides practical solutions to our real problems. That is why I like Jeff!

Jeff Lauderdale combines leadership, integrity, knowledge, and experience (LIKE).

Jeff Lauderdale is our best choice for Island County Commissioner, District 1 (South and Central Whidbey Island) in 2012.

Fair now open to interlopers It was with shock, amusement and concern that I read the page 2 April 28 article in The Whidbey News-Times regarding the upcoming change to the Island County Fair. The traditional Fair Board, according to the article, “dissolved itself.” Maybe they should play the main stage on Saturday afternoon, that’s some trick. The new board can reportedly make quicker payments and that may be a good thing, but exposing our county’s residents to bovine, baking, and rabbit competition from beyond our county line is quite another.

Since its inception in 1895, The Island County Fair has become an institution. Every summer we get together and duke it out over who grows the best string beans, who is best at canning the beans, who has the fastest cutting

chainsaw, who has the best behaved golden retriever, swiftest barrel racer, cutest baby pigs, and how many different color swatches can be incorporated into a queen sized quilt.

Over the generations grudge matches have developed and if you don’t get a ribbon, it’s a comfort to know who you may have to defeat the following August. Now that we are designated an “area” fair we’ll be subjected to a sort of guerilla 4-H, nervously never knowing who our next challenger may be.

I hear the dahlias from the sunny side of Orcas Island are to die for. Should we subject ourselves to tubers with such a radiance that (by law) they haven’t been allowed to compete beyond Friday Harbor? How about stacking our South End tulips against the professionals from La Conner?

To many, British Columbia is perceived as being in our “area.” What happens when the Royal Canadian Mounties gallop down here from the Peace Arch with those beautiful, huge horses? We’ll get our butts handed to us, that’s what. I’m not against a little competition, but word on the street is a scrappy herd of Holsteins from the south side of Sedro-Woolley are just aching for a little barnyard rumble in Langley! If this concept flies, our Falcon football squad may have to go up against the Seahawks

in pre-season!

Even if a person were to eke out a win against the interlopers, the previous pride of being awarded “Best Salmonberry Pie of Island County” will now be watered down by the nebulous title of “Best Pie In the Whidbey Island … Area.”

How about a Black Angus from our glorious Maxwelton Valley with what was a distinguished, blue “Island County Fair” ribbon draped around that lustrous neck? The ribbon design under this new regime may very well read “Best Side of Beef … in these here parts.”

And what of the newly dejected Camano Island folks? As a geographic piece of Island County they have been an official part of The Island County Fair from the beginning. Now it seems with the name “Whidbey Island Area Fair,” the Camanoans will have to make their case for being in the “area” of Whidbey Island in order to be included in their own fair. Even though some say Camano is simply a peninsula attached to Stanwood, this is just too much! Or could this be the political end game?

Could the Whidbey Island “area” be innocently redrawn without Camano, resulting in their tax revenue being gobbled up by Snohomish County? Only time will tell.

Policarpio Flores Wallie Funk shakes the hand of a well wisher during a celebration of his 90th birthday. Hundreds of people showed up for the birthday celebration that was sponsored by the community of Anacortes. Funk was the co-publisher and editor of the Whidbey News-Times and South Whidbey Record.

Wallie Funk celebrates 90th birthday

By Steven Berentson Special to the News-Times

How appropriate that retired newspaperman Wallie Funk was asked to share the stage last Sunday when friends and family gathered to help him celebrate his 90th birthday.

Funk, co-publisher and editor of the Whidbey NewsTimes and Whidbey Record for three decades, was a powerful force as reporter, col-

umnist and editorial writer.

But he was beloved for his photography -– from naval aviators and Dutch dancers to rock stars and U.S. presidents.

Hundreds of Funk’s photos were on display at his birthday celebration, sharing the spotlight as he was honored by the community of Anacortes Sunday, April 29.

Sons Mark and Carl, both Oak Harbor High School graduates, were on hand

OBITUARY Raymond (Ray) E. Rogers, Jr.

Raymond (Ray) E. Rogers, Jr. 52 passed way in his sleep at his Greenbank home March 28, 2012. He was born to Raymond and Nancy Rogers on Dec 30, 1959 in Yakima. He grew up and attended school in White Salmon, Wash.

Ray served our country, joining the US Army in 1978, then transferring to the National Guard, during which time he responded to the Mt. St. Helen’s eruption.

He met his wife, Kathryn Tennant, while working for the USFS in Quinault. They were married in Aberdeen May 26, 1984.

Ray enjoyed being in the forests of Washington where he worked building and maintaining logging roads. He moved with his wife and sons to Whidbey Island in 1991 to be close to his widowed mother-in-law.

He found employment with Island Asphalt and grew to love Whidbey as much as the forests of Washington.

Holding the belief that we are all of worth and are connected to each other, Ray quietly saw and actively sup-

with families for the tribute to their father. Another Oak Harbor grad on hand was Jayne Mardesich, daughter of Funk’s publishing partner, the late John Webber.

Funk, who retired to his hometown of Anacortes shortly after selling his Whidbey newspapers, finally shelved the Leica camera that was his constant companion during his newspaper years.

That did not mean, however, that he was finished making an impact in Oak Harbor and Anacortes.

Also among those in the birthday celebration crowd were former Oak Harbor Mayor Al Koetje and Island County Museum Director Rick Costellano. Funk donated part of his photo collection to the Coupeville museum,

and he continues to make regular visits to Whidbey Island.

Following a brief biographical presentation by history book co-author Theresa Trebon, Funk the “community activist and philanthropist” was acknowledged for contributions to area museums, theaters and schools, including the 2011-12 raising of $101,000 for a scholarship fund for the Northwest Career & Technical Academy Marine Technology Center.

For his part, Funk extended thanks to those in attendance at the birthday celebration and he gave reporters what they wanted when he enthusiastically concluded: “I can’t tell you how honored I feel. I’ve had one hell of a good life!”

ported the needs of his community, family and friends.

Ray is survived by his wife Kathryn Rogers, their children Bradley Rogers and Thomas Rogers, his parents Raymond and Nancy Rogers, his grandmother Mildred McGraw, his sisters Vicki Main and Pam Billette, his brother Doug Rogers, as well as many more beloved in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews, and nieces.

Ray’s final resting-place is at Sunnyside Cemetery in Coupeville. A celebration of Ray’s life is being held the afternoon of Sunday, June 24 at the Greenbank Progressive Club.

A strong, loyal and quiet man, glorious of heart.

Coupeville welcomes Meridian in district soccer opener tonight

By JIM WALLER Sports editor

After splitting a pair of 2-1 matches over the weekend, the Coupeville soccer team now moves into the district playoffs.

The Wolves (7-7, 9-7) welcome Meridian (4-11) in a loserout match at 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 2, at Mickey Clark Field.

The winner will be District 1’s No. 3 seed in the tri-district tournament and will play District 2 No. 2 at 6 p.m. Saturday, May 5, at Sammamish High School in a loser-out match.

Friday, April 27, Coupeville lost 2-1 at Lakewood, then bounced back to defeat visiting Granite Falls 2-1 in overtime Saturday to wrap up the regular season.

Against Lakewood, Josh Wilsey helped the Wolves come

back to even the score at 1 with a 25-yard goal in the 54th minute.

The Cougars (6-8, 7-8) pulled out the win by scoring in the 74th minute.

Coach Paul Mendes said, “The game was a tight one with good chances by both teams right to the final minute.”

It took overtime, but the Wolves eked out a 2-1 win over upset-minded Granite Falls (1-12, 2-13).

Neither team could reach the net until Coupeville’s Nathan Lamb scored in the 72nd minute from 12 yards out in a scramble in front of the goal mouth.

With just two minutes left in regulation, Granite Falls scored on a 20-yard free kick that was deflected, making it “impossible to save” for keeper Kole

’Cat playoff hopes down to final game

By JIM WALLER Sports editor

The Oak Harbor High School baseball team lost 8-5 Monday at Glacier Peak and headed into yesterday’s regular season finale tied with Everett for the sixth and final playoff spot.

Results of Tuesday’s games were not available at press time; see www.whidbeynewstimes.com for the latest details.

Everett also lost Monday, 10-0 at Shorecrest.

Oak Harbor (5-10, 7-11) finished up with Glacier Peak (11-4, 13-6) at home Tuesday while Everett (5-11, 5-14) hosted Shorecrest (105, 13-6).

If the Wildcats and Everett tie for sixth, Oak Harbor earns the berth because it defeated the Seagulls in both face-to-face meetings this spring.

The sixth-place team travels to No. 1-seed Meadowdale (13-2, 13-5) at 3 p.m. Saturday, May 5, to begin the eight-team, double elimination district tournament.

Second-ranked Mount Vernon (17-0) and Ferndale (12-7) of the Northwest Conference and the Western Conference’s Meadowdale,

Mountlake Terrace, Glacier Peak, Shorecrest and Shorewood round out the field.

In Oak Harbor’s loss to Glacier Peak Monday, the Grizzlies chased starter Grant Schroeder six hitters into the game. An error, walk and three hits helped GP score three runs in the opening frame. Reliever Andrew Snavely calmed the rally with a pair of strikeouts.

Oak Harbor got all three back in the second with the help of four walks, an error and an RBI single by Cory Cameron.

After the Grizzlies went up 5-3, the Wildcats re-tied it in the fifth when Jack Richter singled and David Kusnick drilled a home run over the left-centerfield wall.

Glacier Peak, which finished with 11 hits, scored twice in the fifth and once in the sixth to secure the win.

The Grizzlies ripped four doubles and a triple in the game; Oak Harbor had only three hits.

The win helped Glacier Peak move into a tie for second place with Mountlake Terrace.

Kellison, according to Mendes.

Coupeville collected the game winner four minutes into overtime on a counter attack with quick passing that helped spring Dylan Tack free up the right sideline. He beat two defenders and delivered a long cross to Brent Arnold who headed in the goal from close range.

Mendes said Kellison made “some key saves to secure the win.”

The Wolves outshot the Tigers 29-11 and hit the post once and the crossbar twice.

Mendes said, “Our passingpossession game was below par, which led to a scrappy battle of a game -- perhaps from fatigue of playing a game the night before and four in the same week…It all ended on a high note with a great goal in OT.”

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

Enthusiasm and education are blooming at the Greenbank Farm Master Gardener Display Garden with a variety of free, public classes that dig deeper than ordinary garden classes.

The Island County Master Gardener education series began April 22 with a class on advanced composting and worm bins, and continues at 1 p.m. Sunday, May 6 with advanced rhododendron care, then 1 p.m. Saturday, June 16 with roses, Sunday, Sept. 16 with berry care and in October, a presentation on espalier.

Coming up on May 6 is advanced rhododendron care and propagation, presented by expert rhododendron cultivator and Master Gardener Bill Stipe, owner of Glynneden Gardens, where more than 5,000 rhodies grow in his display garden.

Stipe is no newcomer to rhodies; he’s been growing them for 50 years and will teach everything from planting to fertilizing and pruning to hybridizing. He’ll also talk about pest control, growing from seed and other maintenance issues.

Stipe’s favorite feature of rhododendrons is their wide variety.

Some are just a couple of inches tall and are used as ground cover, “and some that I’ve seen in China are 100 feet tall,” Stipe said.

Just as varied as their size are their leaves. Some have thin, long leaves, and some have reddish or bluish leaves.

“I try to tell people a rhododendron shouldn’t be bought just for the flowers,” Stipe said, adding that rhodies look good yearround.

Stipe has been a Master Gardener since 1987.

“It gives me a chance to explain to others and help others,” he said, adding that he loves to meet new people. “I find gardeners are ethical people; honest and straightforward and just a great group of people.”

Find out more about Stipe and Glynneden Gardens at glynnedengardens.com.

Even if the compost doesn’t earn awards at the fair, “one of the key things to be a good gardener is having good soil,” Hall said.

“It really is easy to get compost.

We live in a great place to make compost,” Hall said. For information about composting, as well as to purchase worm bins and receive free worms, contact Hall at 678-7974 or 360-629-4522, or visit www.wastewise.wsu.edu.

On June 16, learn the ins and outs of gardening roses with Master Gardener Maryanne Coffey, consulting rosarian and rose judge for the American Rose Society. She has been a Master Gardener since 2003.

This advanced rose class takes students beyond the original planting to feeding, pruning, winterizing and more.

“On the island, they tell you you can only grow these roses that bloom once a year,” Coffey said.

This isn’t so, and Coffey loves to

experiment by planting a wide variety of roses, from miniatures to climbing, at the Greenbank Farm gardens.

“To me, they’re captivating.

They can come through the hardest weather and have these glorious blooms,” Coffey said. Her mother and grandmother grew roses when Coffey was young and she wanted to continue the tradition.

To Coffey, each rose is an individual and she is passionate about trying new things with her plants.

“As we go along, we just try to continue to educate people. If we have a disaster in one garden, it’s the old turning lemons into lemonade. It allows people to come up with fresh ideas,” Coffey said.

“We just love what we do.”

“Oh, La, La, Espalier” is scheduled for October and will be presented by Donna Stansberry, Master Gardener since 1997 and founder of the Master Gardener Gardens at the Greenbank Farm.

Holland Happening brings out the good times, food, festivities

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

Rebecca Olson/Whidbey News-Times

After taking a terrifying ride on the “Wind Glider” at the carnival, Grace Osborn, 11, and Lexi Peters, 11, said they were ready to do it again.

Rebecca Olson/Whidbey News-Times

The Fil-Am Dance Troupe performs Saturday afternoon, followed by a variety of other groups both Saturday and Sunday.

Rebecca Olson/Whidbey News-Times

The Shriners are a long-time fixture in Oak Harbor parades as they ride their little cars down the street.

Screams of delight from children on spinning carnival rides, the scents of greasy food and even warm sunshine imparted an air of festivity to Oak Harbor’s Holland Happening weekend April 28 and 29.

Families lined Bayshore Drive for the parade Saturday morning, children clustering on the street with bags and pillowcases to store candy thrown by parade participants. Evie Moore, 5, and Rory Moore, 6, waved and waved at the long march of school bands, businesses, political groups, church groups, nonprofits and vehicles.

“I loved it!” Rory Moore exclaimed after the parade, holding a heavy bag of candy. She said the Oak Harbor Yacht Club pirate ship that really shot its cannons was her favorite part, while her mother, Elspeth Moore, said she loved the Shriners in their little cars.

“I love the parade,” Elspeth Moore said, adding that she grew up in Oak Harbor and loves a small-town, local parade.

It was Amy Morrison’s first time at the parade since her family recently moved to Oak Harbor.

“I loved it! It was really, really fun!” Morrison said.

It was rush hour on Pioneer Way after the parade as the crowds headed for the street fair or to the carnival on Bayshore Drive. Booths lined Pioneer Way for the street fair, where many stopped to purchase locally made foods, jewelry, knit hats and much more.

An awed crowd gathered around Elmer Veldheer, the parade grand marshal and wooden shoe “klompen” carver who has visited Oak Harbor for more than 20 years. Due to his worsening arthritis, this was the Michigan native’s last year carving wooden shoes at Holland Happening.

With the scents of lumpia, mussels and the festival favorite, funnel cakes, heavy in the air, the lines at food booths grew. The Martinez family succumbed to a couple of crunchy funnel cakes.

“Everybody comes for the funnel cakes, right? It’s not a carnival without a funnel cake!”

Roxanne Martinez said as children Layle, 4 and one-half, and M.J., 7, and husband Mark indulged in the sweet treats.

Shrieks of delight and screams of excited terror emanated from the carnival below Pioneer Way as children and adults alike were whirled in circles or launched into the air by carnival rides.

Grace Osborn, 11, and Lexi Peters, 11, got off the “Wind Glider” out of breath from spinning in circles.

“It was fun!” Peters said, grinning.

When asked if they would do it again, both girls emphatically said, “Yes!” While the child roller coaster may not have been as terrifying as the “Wind Glider,” Olivia Simms, 4, was just as excited in her front row seat. Her shrieks as the roller coaster rounded sharp curves were punctuated by smiles of delight.

“She’s having a great time,” her mother, Sarah Simms, said from the sidelines.

That seemed to be the common theme throughout the day as people watched a variety of groups perform on stage, like the Fil-Am Dance Troupe, the Oak Harbor Youth Cheer and a number of bands. Groups also performed Sunday until the festivities wrapped up and the street fair and carnival ended Sunday evening to wait until next year for Oak Harbor’s Dutch heritage to come out in full force once again.

Skagit Valley College student recognized for academics

garden CONTINUED FROM A12 cultivating espalier. The trees can be pruned to look like candelabra, fans and much more.

Stansberry’s favorite feature of the plant is its ability to divide a garden into “rooms.” She and her husband, Steve, spend hours in their gardens but if the acres are divided into smaller rooms, it makes it easier for Stansberry to garden one room for a couple of hours instead of trying to conquer everything at once.

May 13 through 19 has been proclaimed Washington State University Master Gardener Week by Gov. Chris Gregoire. The WSU Extension Master Gardener Program began in 1973 and provides free public education in gardening and environmental stewardship.

Boonstras celebrate 60 years together

Ed and Willie Ann Boonstra of Oak Harbor will celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary with a reception from 2 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, May 6 at First Reformed Church in Oak Harbor.

Family and friends are invited to join them in celebrating their diamond anniversary.

The couple were married May 6, 1952 in Diemen, Netherlands, just outside Amsterdam. Ed was

employed as a mounted policeman in Holland and Willie worked as a janitor at a pharmaceutical company during their early years of marriage. The couple decided to immigrate to the United States in 1955, making their home in Oak Harbor.

Ed worked for the city of Oak Harbor from 1956 to 1986, after which he served on the city council for 10 years.

Willie worked for the

Oak Harbor School district and was well known as “the lunch lady.” She also worked at Chris’ Bakery, becoming a familiar face to many.

The couple have impacted their community through their work, years of involvement with Holland Happening and also commitment to their church, First Reformed Church of Oak Harbor.

The couple has two children, daughter Kaarin

Whelchel, Brobst plan August wedding

Nelson and the late Rick Boonstra. Other members of their family also immigrated, including Ed’s brother and Willie’s niece and family.

Ed and Willie have enjoyed many camping trips over the years, plus fishing trips and traveling to places like Alaska, Hawaii, trips back to the “old country” and a Mexican cruise.

Their travels have created an extended family here in the U.S.

The contest is open to all island students in grades three through 12 with divisions for grades 3 to 5, grades 6 to 8, and grades 9 to 12. There was an additional opportunity to win an award if topics related to nature, birds, or the environment, as an adjunct to the

In addition, one winner in each age division received the $25 Whidbey Reads cash prize; the first place winners in each genre and age division received a $25 cash prize; and the second place winners received a $10 cash prize.
