Maxwelton mystery ship legend revived

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Choochokam pays tribute, adds fun

BY Record staff

Choochokam, Langley’s annual festival of the arts, takes over the town this weekend with dozens of booths filled with artists’ creations and plenty of music to keep the town hopping both Saturday and Sunday.

Almost 38 years ago, artist John Braun and friends got together to cook up a plan to celebrate Langley’s rich arts community.

They wanted it to be fun, complete with a street dance and art show. The group did more than that, they started an event named Choochokam, very loosely translated from the Hopi: A Gathering of Stars. And here, 37 years later, the group’s legacy lives on.

Friends of John Braun are hosting an art show and sale to honor his work. The opening party is scheduled from 5 to 7:30 p.m.

Friday, July 6 in Studio 106, located at 106 McLeod Alley in Langley.

Visitors to the studio will find Braun’s Northwest Coastal art, Talisman and jewelry, as well as his mother Mary McNeal’s quilts and ceramics. The show will benefit the Island Arts Council Artist in Residence program.

Spanish explorers? An attack by Native Americans? Sunken ships?

All in the Maxwelton watershed?

Many may write off such tales as bupkis, a persistent but smalltown legend that is nothing more than the machination of a few overactive imaginations.

Yet, there are others who believe.

Some claim to have found evidence.

And one man even believes he knows where they are.

“I think I have found them,” said Geoff Tapert, a South Whidbey resident.

The owner of a small engineering firm, Tapert became increasingly intrigued with the legend while working on a property near the small pond along Maxwelton Road.

Doing additional research, his investigations eventually led him to a web search and an aerial Google Maps image that shows patches of grassland along the pond that differ in color from surrounding areas.

Tapert believes this may be the final resting spot to two ships.

But, like any good local legend, there are others who aren’t so sure. While Tapert was being interviewed for this story near the site, longtime Maxwelton resident Bill Steiner was working in his fields and stopped by to chat.

He taught history in South Whidbey schools for 28 years and his family has been working the land in the watershed for more than 60 years. In all that time, he

Historic Steiner family to helm Maxwelton Parade

Over the years, bands and artists alike, have become what event organizers call “family.” It is a mutual love for community that creates long-lasting relationships.

“Choochokam is a destination event,” event co-chair Sherry Jennings said. “It’s not the mainland shows where people simply drive up, set up and sell, or play.

Musicians and artists plan this show as a bonafide trip. And many

MAXWELTON — The Steiner family and the Maxwelton area of South Whidbey have a long history.

And after owning one of the largest tracts of land in the neighborhood — the Maxwelton Farm — the Steiners will lead the annual Maxwelton Parade at 1 p.m. today, July 4.

Hal Steiner, 72, remembers the area fondly, though it has changed a bit since his days playing in the old mill pond. At his beachfront home near Swede Hill Road, Steiner showed a framed photograph of his grandfather perched on a beach log looking toward the water.

“That’s the kind of connection I feel for the land,” Steiner said.

The Steiner family has resided in Maxwelton for some 60 years. Ever since, a Steiner has lived in the area, including Hal’s brother Bill and his mother Rose, who lives on Swede Hill overlooking the beach and the farm. When

Mother Mentors celebrates 3 years of family support Mother Mentors of Whidbey Island, a nonprofit organization inspired by similar groups scattered throughout the United States, grows out of the complex reality of motherhood; despite having everything prepared for the birth of a baby, emergencies and uncertainty do happen.

Mother Mentors nurtures mothers and other caregivers of young children by providing practical and emotional in-home support. Trained volunteers ease the load and stress of parenting by providing an empathic ear, a strong shoulder, an extra pair of hands or a fresh cup of tea. It’s a simple idea based on centuries of wisdom and validated by contemporary research. A mother — any mother — will be a better parent if she is supported, said a Mother Mentors spokesperson. She will thrive, her child will thrive and the community will benefit.

On the Summer Solstice morning of Wednesday, June 20, Mother Mentors of

Bess Windecker-Nelson was honored by Mother Mentors for her years of work on behalf of families.

Whidbey Island held a free breakfast benefit to share a little of their mothering with the community and to honor Bess Windecker-Nelson. This celebration marked Mother Mentors’ first three years of service to 27 families and 51 children.

The breakfast, prepared

by Mother Mentors with ingredients donated by local farmers, bakers and grocery stores, and served by members of the South Whidbey High School Honor Society, spoke to the support and care of the South Whidbey community for its mothers and children.

MUSIC BY THE SEA, A10: Choochokam Festival offers more music, more fun

and hopefully some sun this year.

INSERTS: Fred Meyer, Island Chem-Dry, Choochokam Arts and Fred Meyer 2.

There was music, storytelling, laughter and tears; food for the body and the soul. Aaliyah Kois Jacob and Linda Good played violin as guests arrived. Peter Morton served as emcee.

Mara Grey provided a story and played her harp. Kristin Lasher, program founder, also spoke.

The fast-paced program, held at the United Methodist Church in Langley honored Windecker-Nelson for her many years of outstanding work in Island County on behalf of families and young children. Karin Watson and Sharon Bell talked about how Windecker-Nelson has worked with preschools and support agencies and how her community organizational skills have helped bring about a strong coalition for early learning in the community.

Windecker-Nelson has been an advocate for Mother Mentors as a valuable first step in making sure a child is ready for school as she believes parents are a child’s first and most important teachers.

The speakers at the breakfast included the testimony of a volunteer mentor and a mom. They reminded every-

one that raising children can be exhausting and frustrating, especially when isolated and living away from family and friends. Donations allow Mother Mentors to pay for infrastructure and training costs and take the next steps to apply for grants to support staffing costs.

Mother Mentors hopes to expand to North Whidbey once sufficient funds are raised to hire a part-time staff person. More volunteers are needed as well. Once resources are available, new moms and anyone raising young children island-wide will have access to a person who has gone through the same ups and downs that all parents experience. Mother Mentors’ services are free of charge to any parent or caregiver of young children.

The next training for Mother Mentors will be early fall. Volunteers are needed to support the program in other ways, such as helping with web design and support, public relations, or serving on a committee or the board.

Tax-deductible donations can be sent to P.O. Box 92, Langley, WA 98260.

League leaves public out of candidate grilling

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

For the first time in at least 15 years, the public will not be quizzing Island County commissioner candidates during this year’s League of Women Voters primary political forums.

The league, a non-partisan group that works to inform and encourage public participation in government, has for decades held forums on ballot measures and public offices up for election.

For much of that time, people have had the chance to weigh in by asking questions.

However, considering the

number of candidates in this year’s primary races — nine total — the league decided to abandon the long-held tradition in the hope of providing a more effective and meaningful forum.

“We’re trying to make it more fair, we’re trying to make it more lively and we’re trying to see that all the issues identified by the league as important are addressed,” said Barbara Seitle, a member of the board of directors and the former president of the state league.

The older format of allowing questions from the crowd has resulted in a “limited scope of questioning, grandstanding, or ‘planted’ questions meant to

benefit one candidate,” according to a league release.

“Sometimes the questions are longer than the answers because people want to make more of a statement than ask a question,” Seitle said.

In the two forums planned for July, one for District 1 and one for District 2, candidates will be hit with about 10 total questions. They are the result of a request for questions from league members, Seitle said.

The league will also issue each candidate three “challenge” cards that can be used during the forum. Candidates always get the chance to address each question but league officials say there are

times when the answer of one candidate leaves another squirming in their seat to respond.

“You know they want to say something so this is an opportunity to let them do that,” she said.

Candidates don’t seem to be raising any fuss over the changes. Jim Campbell, a Republican running for the District 2 seat, said he doesn’t have any heartburn over either change.

“I obviously want to know what the crowd thinks, but in a forum where time is a constraint, it doesn’t make a heck of a lot of difference to me,” Campbell said. “The questions

will get asked.”

As for challenge cards, he said that was a good change.

If people stray from the issues and get personal, he said he wouldn’t be surprised if candidates put them to use.

District 1 incumbent Helen Price Johnson, a Democrat, said she also has no qualms with either change.

“It’s always good to try something new,” she said.

However, Price Johnson noted that no format is perfect. Allowing questions from the crowd can lead to “statements” rather than questions while not allowing the public their time can lead to concerns of constituents being silenced.

Seitle said the policy changes are not yet permanent, that the league is trying them out for the primary forums. If it doesn’t work, the rules can always be changed back for the general election forums.

The District 2 forum will be held first, from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Wednesday, July 11, at the Oak Harbor Elks Lodge, 155 NE Ernst St. in Oak Harbor.

The District 1 forum will be held from 7 to 8:30 p.m., Thursday, July 19, at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Whidbey Island, 20103 Highway 525, two miles north Freeland.

Legislators present priorities to business leaders

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

many revenue increases proposed by state legislators that did not pass and took exception to the “cuts” mentioned

by Haugen.

She said much of that money came from previously planned budget increases that were simply not approved.

“When people talk about cutting $10 billion, it’s all in the way you define the $10 billion,” Bailey said.

The legislators were then quizzed by the crowd with questions that ranged in topic from the price of gasoline and tort reform to what each would do if they could accomplish one thing immediately.

Following the meeting, many business owners said they appreciated hearing about regulatory reform and fee reductions. Anchorage Inn owner Dianne Binder said she

believes it’s important, especially for small businesses, and was glad to hear that it is on lawmakers’ radar.

Mike Lauver, of Whidbey Whidbey SeaTac Shuttle, said he also is most interested in topics about making business in Washington easier. He said his shuttle service also operates a single limo on which some fees have skyrocketed by 500 percent last year alone.

Lauver said he has worked with all three lawmakers before and they were positive experiences. However, he said many of the issues discussed are not new and it would be nice to see some real change.

“I hope they will absorb some of that feedback and go and work on things to help small business,” Lauver said.

“It would be nice if it were more than rhetoric.”

State Rep. Barbara Bailey, R-Oak Harbor, and Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen, D-Camano, smile as they meet with constituents during the Island County Economic Development Council’s annual luncheon.

JULY 7-8

If Whidbey Island’s three lawmakers could accomplish a short list of priorities in Olympia, one item would clean up the rules governing public private partnerships, another would pass “comprehensive regulatory reform” and a third would have an outside party closely examine how tax dollars are spent and how much things cost.

At least, and in that order, that’s what District 10 Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen, D-Camano, Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, and Rep. Barbara Bailey, R-Oak Harbor, told a small contingent of the business community.

The lawmakers were the main speakers at the Island County Economic Development Council’s annual luncheon at the Best Western hotel in Oak Harbor earlier this month. About 45 people attended the event.

“I think it went great,” said Ken Hofkamp, a member of the council’s board of directors and the owner of the Red Apple grocery store in Coupeville.

It was nice to have an opportunity to get together with lawmakers and talk about the issues that matter most to the business community at a time when the economy is still presenting challenges, he said.

“I think everyone is struggling just to maintain,” Hofkamp said.

He was particularly impressed with Smith, who passionately and charismatically argued for regulatory reform and the need to turn Washington into a world leader of manufacturing and exports.

“There are some things

we can do that are within our power as government in Olympia to unleash the entrepreneurial spirit of Washingtonians,” Smith said.

“That’s exciting,” she said.

“Instead of lagging the national recovery, we could accelerate and be leading it.”

Regulatory reform is one of the keys to unleashing that spirit, she said. A common Republican platform, the idea suggests growing the economy by unburdening businesses with rules and fees.

Smith hit a number of topics, ranging from broad issues such as state job creation and the financial situation in Europe, to hot button issues like business and operation tax reform.

Smith was the third legislator to speak.

Haugen, the sole Democrat, started things off by addressing the budget and the $11 billion in cuts that have been made to the general fund over the past few years. “It was not pretty,” but she noted that this year’s budget was adopted in the senate by a “strong bipartisan” effort that saw only two no-votes.

Haugen also talked about issues ranging from job creation and transportation projects, including ferry construction, to technological advances in public safety and fee increases for driver’s licenses and select industries.

Bailey, who is challenging Haugen this year for the District 10 senate seat, also focused on the state budget, the difficulties of the past legislative session, her voting history and where money was allocated.

She made it clear that she did not vote for the House budget. Bailey addressed

HOSPITAL Board appoints Gardner again A recent change in state law is forcing the commissioners for Whidbey General Hospital to reappoint its newest member.

The elected board will re-appoint Georgia Gardner during a special meeting at 9 a.m.

Thursday, July 5, in the Whidbey General Hospital board room. The commissioners have to revisit the decision because the previous meeting didn’t comply with recent changes made to the Open Public Meetings Act. Whidbey General Hospital spokesperson Trish Rose said the hospital notified the news media and posted notices in the hospital campus, but nobody posted the meeting on the website, www.whidbeygen.org.

The change to the OPMA, which went into effect June 7, requires an

entity to post a notice of special meetings on its website. Rose said the hospital normally posts meeting notices on its website; however, the employee responsible for that task recently left the hospital and her replacement didn’t know about the requirement.

“That kind of fell through the cracks,” Rose said Monday afternoon.

Gardner, who was originally appointed to the board in mid June, was one of six candidates interviewed for the position. The retired accountant has a history of serving in public office. She served on the Blaine City Council for eight years and then represented the 42nd District as a representative and a senator from 1997 through 2002.

Gardner replaces Dr. Paul Zaveruha, who resigned from the hospital board in April.

Rose said board members didn’t realize the error until they attended a recent workshop about changes to the Open Public Meetings Act. Once

they realized the error, a new meeting was scheduled.

The change in state law also outlines several exemptions where an entity doesn’t have to post a special meeting notice on the website.

Those exemptions are: An agency lacks a website, has fewer than 10 fulltime equivalent employees, or doesn’t have an employee whose duties include maintaining and updating a website.

SCHOOLS Candidates face the students Two community-oriented video projects by students at Oak Harbor High School are now being aired on Wildcat TV Comcast channel 21 which is available to many South Whidbey subscribers to Comcast.

“Face the Students,” a debate involving eight commissioner candidates from Districts 1 and 2, is on the air twice a day. A student panel from the high school leadership class served as panelists and asked the debate questions. The unedited debates are broken out by district, with each one lasting about one hour. A roundtable discussion by the student panel follows

Meanwhile, “Thrill the Island,” a zombie video involving the high school’s Show Choir and a cast of community members from all of Whidbey Island, is on the air twice daily at 4 p.m. and 10 p.m.

“Thrill the Island” is a locally filmed tongue-incheek thriller about zombies taking over Whidbey Island, focused around the dance and music of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.”

CLINTON Cleveland Trail gets color maps Craig and Joy Johnson, world-renown bird photographers and writers, created beautiful fullcolor maps of the Dorothy Cleveland Trail illustrated with their photos and descriptions of bird life along the trail.

The Johnsons photograph birds across Whidbey Island, and Possession Beach Park is one of their favorite spots.

Their maps will be installed at the Possession Beach Park kiosks. The Johnsons are expected to speak on behalf of the trail during the Independence Day weekend. They represent a few of the more than 500 people who signed a petition against Port of South Whidbey plans to allow AT&T to build a cell tower in the Dorothy Cleveland Park.

Washington State Patrol wants ferry travelers on the Clinton to Mukilteo route to know its K-9 units will be out inspecting vehicles for fireworks this week.

The dogs are trained to detect explosives, which includes legal and illegal fireworks. A State Patrol press release said fireworks should be stored where they are easily accessible for an officer to inspect.

Illegal fireworks are not allowed on Washington State Ferries and will be confiscated.

A list of legal and illegal fireworks is available at wsp.wa.gov/fire/docs/ fwlicensing/lglfwrks.pdf.

Ferries’ on-time record improves The Clinton-Mukilteo ferry route was on-time a lot earlier this year.

Washington State Ferries announced its third quarter report, and the South Whidbey connection was one of the most punctual routes in the state, with 99.7 percent of all trips departing and arriving on-time.

From the third quarter from January to March of fiscal year 2011, the Clinton-Mukilteo ferries improved their on-time trips by 2.5 percent, or a total on 6,552 sailings.

LANGLEY Langley Half Marathon set

The Langley Half Marathon returns this year with even more events.

The scenic course along Saratoga and Fox Spit roads has made this a regional favorite. To offer other challenges, race organizers added fourand seven-mile courses that begin and end with the half, but take detours into Saratoga Woods.

There will be the 10k walk again this year.

“Our small team has been leading this phase of Choochokam’s vision for seven years and not one of us has any ownership in the event,” Sherry Jennings, co-chair, said.

“We’re merely stewards.

This is definitely the community’s event and it reflects Whyour w appreciation a i t to s ave m on for all n i gthe h t work for fine a f reand e qu o te o performing artists put into their craft on a daily basis.

Letters In response

Commissioner taxes and spend To the editor: Michael O’Mahony’s idea of leadership is lacking (Letters, June 30). Helen Price Johnson’s accomplishments lack leadership and she only grasps “tax and spend.”

Here are some of Price Johnson’s accomplishments: 1. Refused to modify the onsite septic system management program despite numerous credible scientific and cost/benefit objections: OSS management program maintained as is over credible objections.

2. Proposed a major tax increase (Proposition 1) as a solution to fiscal woes (in essence a blank check).

3. First choice to resolve revenue shortfall has consistently been more taxes.

4. Created the Clean Water Utility tax, overriding voters who rejected the levy lid lift (Prop. 1).

5. Pushed Freeland Water and Sewer district to build a $40 million sewer system to be paid for by 425 property owners.

6. Reduced the Sheriff’s Department manning by 10 deputies and has failed to negotiate a new contract with both sheriff’s deputies and corrections deputies for four years. Less protection, more crime.

As you can see there is no leadership or vision for the future with Price Johnson except for, more taxes. O’Mahony is no more a Republican than I am a Democrat, he is not being honest. This coming election is to important for our county’s future.

Rain kept the gardens green

To the editor: The soggy 17th Annual Whidbey Island Garden Tour was one for the books!

Despite peek-a-boo sunshine and torrential downpours, nearly 900 garden visitors enjoyed a lovely day. Hand-crafted mermaids swimming in the trees and fawns napping under a dripping hosta leaf didn’t mind the rain, and neither apparently did tour attendees.

Four unique gardens, from the whimsical to the working vegetable garden, gave our many guests much to marvel over. A Tuscan Lady’s Garden (Darla Duchessa), Raven’s Roost (Terra Anderson and Tom Buxton), Primrose Cottage (Kermit and Katie Chamberlin), and Spring Valley Farm (Cindy Smith and Phil Groening) were all in shining glory for the tour.

We thank you garden owners for your diligence in preparing your gardens over the past

year. And thank you to Gloria Sherman for sharing her magnificent “one spirit garden” with the volunteers for a post-tour celebration.

As for the hundreds of volunteers ... you rock!

Despite the weather you were friendly and helpful and full of good information about the gardens and our lovely island paradise.

A big thank you goes to all the individuals, businesses and the Port of South Whidbey, who helped in getting the word out to our entire island and beyond, and to all our benefactors who provided our operating funds.

If you purchased a ticket this year, thank you! Ticket purchase monies allow us to fully fund the seven grant requests chosen this year: Calyx Community Arts School, Deer Lagoon Grange, Friends of the Langley Library, Good Cheer Garden, Senior Services of Island County, Whidbey Institute at Chinook and WSU Extension/Island County 4-H. Please visit our new and beautiful website (www.wigt.org) to see pictures from the gardens, to get information about how your group could benefit from the garden tour in 2013 and to find out about next year’s tour.

Happy gardening!

that would have almost totally reduced the beachfront access. He was not the only participant but he took the lead in getting it done.

In 2000, as a member South Whidbey Park District, he was once again instrumental in getting funding for some of the very best ball fields in the Northwest. He certainly was not the only member actively trying to get this done but was a key player in getting the bonds passed to accomplish this terrific addition to our community.

After years of stalemate on the Langley Marina, Curt was able to get the port commission and the city of Langley to agree to a compromise less costly improvement and get the project approved.

I want to have a commissioner who will sit down and try to get a consensus to get things done as Curt has amply proven over the past 20 years. Anyone who knows Curt would certainly agree that his real strength is a collaborative mindset to get things done.

I feel he is the best candidate on the ballot.

Denounce the idea, not just the speaker To the editor: In a recent letter to the editor by Barbara Bailey’s husband, Butch Bailey, he took a page right out of the ALEC/ Karl Rove playbook by disingenuously claiming that his wife had nothing whatever to do with the recent false push poll being used against Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen.

Anyone who read the June 8 letter will immediately notice

that Barbara Bailey’s husband did not denounce the message in the push poll as being false. Instead he merely repeated the claim in the push poll that it raised a question about “Senator Haugen’s use of transportation funds to pay for campaign expenses.”

Such a claim is absolutely false and Butch and Barbara Bailey know it!

This is a typical tactic when a candidate wants to benefit from the lie and misinformation, but doesn’t want to be tarnished with having anything to do with it.

We see this same tactic being used at the national level by the “birthers” (i.e., Donald Trump’s wild false accusations regarding President Obama not being born in the United States).

Why doesn’t Mitt Romney denounce this obvious

canard? His response is like Barbara Bailey’s response.

“Don’t blame me, I am not the one saying it.” But he (and she) want to benefit from the lie. Similarly, the “Obama is a Muslim” crowd lies about President Obama’s religious beliefs in their false attempt to somehow paint the president as “not one of us.” Where are the Republicans denouncing such falsehoods? They are nowhere to be seen.

Barbara Bailey should do the honorable thing and completely denounce the false statement set forth in the push poll. If she refuses to do so (and instead merely plays the “don’t blame me” game as in her husband’s letter), then voters can rightly place blame for this disgusting tactic at her feet. Barbara Bailey loves to claim that she always takes the high road,

but amazingly her opponents always get smeared with false accusations. Why is that, Mrs. Bailey?”

Ever have a disagreement and felt like just walking out? Ever hang up the phone abruptly - cutting off the other party from responding? To sell your home successfully, be prepared to keep talking no matter what a prospective buyer’s position may be.

When a buyer chooses your home, the first step is a formal written offer. If the offer is satisfactory, the offer becomes a binding contract.

Often some aspect may not be acceptable, in which case you have two choices. You may choose not to respond or you may make a “counter-offer,” a written counter-proposal.

No response is the equivalent of “hanging-up.” It may leave them angry and confused.

To make the most of every offer, always keep the conversation moving. Make a counter-offer, even if it involves little movement from your initial position. This assures the buyers that you are taking their offer seriously, even though your position may be somewhat rigid.

If the buyers are committed, your counter-offer may be accepted. If not, it may trigger another counter-offer.

No matter what, keep the conversation in motion. A satisfactory transaction is the likely outcome.

Busy batting sends South Whidbey All-Stars into semifinals

BY BEN WATANABE Staff reporter

LANGLEY — A shaky start gave way to fencerattling rallies as the South Whidbey Little League AllStars dropped the SedroWoolley squad 7-2.

South Whidbey’s players bounded toward the first base dugout and swarmed closing pitcher Drew Fry after he fielded the final out.

The victory kept the South Whidbey 9- and 10-year-old All-Stars in the District 11 winner’s bracket and a couple of wins from a spot in the state tournament.

“Anything that’s uplifting or encouraging just rubs off on everybody,” said South Whidbey team manager Chris Schott.

“We were in the good part of the order when that happened.”

Early the game was solidly in Sedro’s control. That was until Nick Young rapped some clutch, veteran hits to spark South Whidbey’s offense, including the first two runs.

“It was pretty tense. I didn’t know what was going to happen,” Nick said. “I just tried

The Central/South Whidbey Blue Fire opened the tournament with a 6-4 win over South Skagit, but South Skagit came through the losers’ bracket to trounce the Blue Fire twice, 18-5 Thursday and 12-2 Friday.

In the district title game Friday, Katrina McGranahan led off the game with a double and later scored for the Blue Fire’s only lead. South Skagit came back in the bottom of the first with three runs and then put the game away with a sevenrun third.

South Skagit combined five hits with seven walks and five Central/South Whidbey errors to earn the four-inning win.

Blue Fire coach Bobbie Weitzel said the final score, “sounds worse than it was.”

She added, “They had really good bats and good running, too. We made good plays, catcher Mikayla (Elfrank) thew out a runner at third, shortstop Megan (Drake) threw out a runner at first … All-in-all we made Skagit work for the win.”

Even a three-up, threedown outing in the third was swept aside in favor of the momentum wave. Nick cracked a RBI single up the middle of the infield that tied the game 2-2 and moved Drew Fry to third. A pitch in the dirt from Sedro’s starter Carter Trammel scored Drew for the lead.

South Whidbey padded the lead on an error in the fifth inning. Runners were on second and third base with only one out. Breighton Schott knocked a grounder to third base. Sedro’s third baseman Dylan Zimmerman bobbled the ball as he scooped it, which gave Thomas Simms enough time to score for a 4-2 edge.

With one last chance to score, Brent Batchelor, South Whidbey’s right fielder, cracked a two-out RBI double to right field that scored Carson Filla. It jolted the South End’s All-Stars into a pair of runs on a single by Breighton that dropped in shallow left field for the final runs of the night.

“It felt pretty good, because when I hit that ball over the

third baseline, I didn’t know if it was going to drop or not,” Breighton said. “When it dropped I just heard the crowd go, ‘Ahhhh!’”

South Whidbey’s starting pitcher, Aidyn Frederick, lasted three and two-thirds innings with two scores on three hits against two strikeouts. Aidyn’s coaches left him in despite a rough first inning when Sedro scored two runs on a couple of errors and a single.

“We felt like with the score being as close as it was, he wasn’t giving up a lot of runs, he was beginning to pitch better, his control was better, his velocity was where we wanted it to be,” Chris Schott said.

Aidyn was relieved by Breighton for the final out of the fourth inning — a strikeout — and finished three strikeouts against one hit. Drew closed in the sixth inning and walked one batter, while forcing a fly out and two grounders he fielded from the mound.

The South Whidbey AllStars face North Whidbey at 6 p.m. Thursday at South Whidbey Community Park.

New county road elicits mixed reaction

By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

The public had its first chance in years to weigh in on a proposal to build a new county road on Central Whidbey.

About 25 people, including county staff and representatives from its hired design and consulting firm, attended a June 21 open house at the Race Road fire station to talk about the proposed 1.5 mile road.

It would connect Race and Houston roads to provide a secondary route to Highway 525 in the event it was closed due to an emergency. That small stretch of roadway is one of just two that have no secondary access. The other is near Deception Pass.

Plans for the new road have been in the works for years and several public meetings on the issue were held about five years ago. At the time, reaction from the community was mixed, with some being OK with the idea and some against.

Based on the comments of

those who came to the recent meeting, little has changed.

Tom Wilsey raises beef on his land off Kempton Place, a private, dead-end dirt drive that would make up about one-third of the new road. He said he’s a little worried about the impact to his animals and isn’t too excited about additional traffic noise. However, he’s not totally opposed to the idea.

“The good side is it (Kempton Place) will be a county road and they will maintain it,” Wilsey said. “It’s got pros and cons.”

Under the proposed orientation, the new road would begin on Kempton Place, which intersects with Race Road. It would then make its way though a heavily forested area, bisecting Highland Trail (also a private dirt drive) before emerging in grasslands and then on to Houston Road.

Like Wilsey, impacted resident Jeff Lauderdale has mixed feelings about the proposed project. He lives off Highland Trail and the new

road would travel along the outskirts of his 10-acre parcel.

He worries about noise and increased traffic but said he can’t complain too much as he was informed about the county’s plans for the new road when he first bought the property.

Also, while Lauderdale wasn’t especially excited about the idea at first, he recently learned more about the project and why the county is interested in building the new road.

The road would make it possible for people or emergency services to get to Whidbey General Hospital in the event of the highways closure.

“It now makes sense, I just wonder where the money is going to come from,” he said.

Lauderdale is one of five people running for the District 1 county commissioner seat.

Others at the meeting were vehemently against the proposal. Al Bowers, of Coupeville, said the access aims to address a problem with a state highway and therefore the cost of providing a secondary access should not fall on the shoulders of county taxpayers.

“They should build their own damn road,” Bowers said.

“The county should keep their nose out of it,” he said.

(more than $5 million) will have to come from partnerships with federal and state funding sources.

“We can’t do this on our own,” Oakes said.

The project is entirely funding dependent and construction could be many years away, he said.

Connie Bowers, no relation to Al Bowers, is the assistant county engineer for Island County Public Works and said plans for the project are about 30 percent complete.

They hope to be 60 percent done by the end of the year and then begin working on easements with property owners.

“If that process is completed, it makes us a better candidate for grant opportunities,” Bowers said.

While she said the county will work hard to negotiate with property owners, if an agreement can’t be reached the easements could be acquired through the legal process of eminent domain.

Such an action would require the approval of the county commissioners, though Bowers said she is optimistic that it would not come to that. So far, she’s not aware of any property owners that are dead set against the new road.

Swamp Mama Johnson, a long-time music favorite at Choochokam, was one of these family members. “People who like Choochokam ‘the way it was’ usually refer to Swamp Mama,” Jennings said.

In April, lead singer Lisa Mills was killed in a tragic motorcycle accident. The collective community mourned her loss, while her remaining band members formed Cascadia 10. Jennings said the band contacted Choochokam early on to play the street dance as a tribute to Mills. Cascadia 10 will be opening this year’s event at 6 p.m.

the image suggests there are actually two ships. He speculates that the second vessel is the remains of the Blue Wing, which was lost with another ship in the mid-1800s — also to Native Americans — in the southern areas of Puget Sound.

There are reports that Joseph Whidbey of Captain George Vancouver’s crew found a half-submerged shipwreck in the area in 1792 and remains of a boat were reported again in 1859 by Thomas Johns and Edward Oliver, the first white settlers of Deer Lagoon.

Robin Clark, the watershed program manager for the Whidbey Watershed Stewards, was also present during the interview with Tapert. She knows the area well and, although she’s familiar with the legend, she also has never stumbled across any sunken ships.

But that doesn’t mean a wreck site is impossible, she said.

Sunday’s Street Dance has become just as popular as the Saturday night event. Local band Slower Loris will close the 2012 show.

Gwen Jones and Celia Black, entertainment coordinators, said they had almost 20 musicians and bands on a waiting list by May 1 this year.

Main Stage will open with local jazz and “Bahia.” Ruzivo, Dana Moffet’s marimba band will follow and then the day unfolds with Americana, pop, country and reggae.

The Useless Bay Pavilion will see bands like “Boys with Toys,” an indie rock band complete with an 8-year-old bassist, and other favorites such as “The McG’s” and “The Fatons.”

“We are getting our name out there as a serious place to play,” Jones said. “This is a great venue and we have seen the likes of LeRoy Bell and Vicci Martinez on our stage in past years.”

said.

Although it is largely dry land today, the watershed was once a much larger estuary and may well have been deep enough to accommodate an ocean-going sailing vessel. The area has since been choked with sediment due to the natural outlet being severely reduced through human manipulation.

“It could be 30 feet under (the ground),” Clark said.

There is also additional evidence, or tales, that the ship does indeed exist. Ann Linnea penned “A Journey Through the Maxwelton Watershed” and addressed the legend of the Spanish ship in detail.

She recounted reports of farmer Leon Burley telling others that he and his father had occasionally found pieces of an old ship and that he even put part of an ancient cleat and some chain in his barn.

She also noted that members of pioneering families have claimed to have played on an old wreck when they were children. But, some say these are just stories.

“There are others who say, ‘Nah, that was never true,’” Clark said.

Steiner is one of those peo-

ple. He was also quoted in Linnea’s book as saying he had worked with Burley and never heard him talk about finding pieces of an old ship.

Sea shells, rocks and the occasional arrowhead, but no ancient boats.

And even if the light-colored patches of grass Tapert points to aren’t the remains of dredged soil, he questions how a deep draft sailing vessel would have been able to access the estuary.

“This is called Useless Bay for a reason,” said Steiner, in reference to the area’s extreme tides.

However, as a former history teacher, he said he doesn’t want to stand in the way of an important find and is willing to allow Tapert to look at the site more closely.

Tapert said he wants to go as far as using ground penetrating radar and magnetic locators to verify his theory but says he lacks the necessary funding. He is hoping an organization such as a museum or institution of higher education will pick up the torch.

While he realizes that some may think he is “a little off,” Tapert is convinced he’s found

Come have fun while helping clean up the leftover fireworks from Double Bluff beach.

Volunteer for however long you want, from one to three hours. Organizer Scott Chase said that each year for the past seven years, the cleanup has removed tons of debris and fireworks from the beach, keeping the beach clean for recreation and making sure the spent fireworks do not harm marine life. A very large metal trash receptacle again will be placed in the park for the debris that’s collected, and Chase hopes to have recycling bins there, as well. Litter bags will be provided to volunteers; bring gloves and wear appropriate clothing and footwear.

For information or directions, call Scott Chase at 360-387-3443, ext 258, or email schase@wsu.edu.

overlooking the beach and the farm. When Steiner cruises Maxwelton Road as Grand Marshal in a vintage MG, he said he plans to wear a red shirt, blue jeans and his farmer’s hat — a dark brown, wide-brimmed utility hat similar to one he wore when he worked on the family farm.

He will see the dozens of faces, the antique cars, the beach and the homes. He will also see his past, his memories, his family’s history. A house down the street, Steiner said, was a log cabin when he was a kid. Now it’s a modern, two-story beach home. The old Mackie home on Swede Hill looks much the same as it did 40 years ago.

“That’s the pioneer house of this area,” Steiner said.

“My memories of Whidbey Island are of very few houses.”

He also has memories of his time with family. Steiner recalled salmon fishing with his dad and the fish were so bountiful, “you couldn’t miss.” As a boy, Steiner played at the old mill pond up the road. He got pretty good at rolling logs and moving across the pond without dunking.

“I fell in a few times,” he said.

On the loose sandy beach, Steiner pointed to some large ships off in the distance. Photographing the passing vessels is one of his hobbies, and he has pictures of submarines, oil drilling rigs, cruise ships and yachts that pass Whidbey Island’s west side. In the summers when Steiner spends most of his days in Maxwelton,

Maxwelton Parade Registration to be in the Maxwelton Parade begins at 11:30 a.m. today, July 4, and the parade begins at 1 p.m.

There will be a shuttle from the Little Brown Church on French and Sills roads, with return service after the parade until 3:30 p.m. Early arrivals and disabled parking permits may park at Dave Mackie Charlotte Edmondson Park.

Food booths will sell hot dogs, strawberry shortcake and other treats. Games like sack races, threelegged races, springs and egg toss follow the parade at Dave Mackie Park.

Sheriff’s deputies, portable toilets, the shuttles and entertainment are paid for by the Maxwelton Community Club. Collectible Maxwelton Parade buttons — designed by 11-year-old Marysville resident Charlotte Edmondson, whose grandparents are long-time Maxwelton residents — cost $1 and help offset the expenses covered by the club. he enjoys having his relatives and grandchildren over where they can play in the baked sand and shallow waters.

“This is the most beautiful place in Washington,” Steiner said.

“My 3-year-old and 5-yearold (grandchildren) love to play in the sand.”

Come the day of the parade, when fireworks burst across the water and along the beach, Steiner will harken back to his days as a youngster. Then, he said, the fireworks he played with were “the big stuff.”

This Maxwelton Parade will be another in a list so long Steiner couldn’t figure how many he has attended.

And while in past parades he walked down the street, “just like everybody else,” this time he’ll be in front, a pioneer of the parade.

catalyst. I was looking for an idea in the poem to spark my imagination and then lead me in terms of mood, rather than subject.

The title of this exhibit was inspired by a poem of the same title by Stephen Roxborough,” Belov said.

For Spencer, a fascination with native cultures, a deep respect for animals and for the earth is the

constant thematic thread throughout her work.

“I hope to speak quietly and powerfully to the heart through my sculpture,” Spencer said.

“I hope as you view the paintings and sculptures, you let them lead you to a place within your own thoughts and experiences.

Each piece of art has a story that can only be discovered by the person it is viewed by, and everyone’s story will be different,” Belov added.

This exhibition will open

Museo gallery features glass

Where gravity meets desire

July at Museo in downtown Langley features the annual Whidbey Island Glass Invitational showing through July 30. This will feature works in glass by 25 of the region’s best known glass artists.

The gallery will also be exhibiting new paintings

by Kathe Fraga. The exhibit will run through July 30.

For details, call 221-7737 or visit www.museo.cc.

Brackenwood Gallery in downtown Langley features Buffy Cribbs and Bruce Morrow in the show “Where Gravity Meets Desire.” The show continues through July 30.

This pair of seasoned artists explores the intimate relationships between mood and metaphor.

Cribbs explores the concepts of space, capturing details in design as well as the interior spaces of feeling or mood, with the use of intense colors in her lively scenes.

Morrow is an oil painter whose work focuses on scenes from the prairie or desert. These western themes represent a certain sense of Americanism and the nostalgia of the frontier. Morrow’s ability to capture a moment allows the viewer to identify with the situation, making it come alive.

These two artists hope to engage viewers in a conversation by capturing humor or poignancy everyone can relate to.

For details, call 221-2978.

Metal artist Jandellyn Ward’s garden art will be featured at Artworks Gallery during July.

Ward and her husband work together. “As artists, we strive to design and create functional art pieces for the home and garden,” Ward said. They create using new and recycled steel, which is cut, ground and formed into components that are welded together. They also incorporate aluminum, copper, brass and fused glass into their unique and many one of a kind pieces.

Meet the artists during the First Friday reception from 5 to 8 p.m. Friday, July 6.

Artworks Gallery offers an extended range of fine art gifts from the group of artists in this cooperative gallery. Artworks Gallery is at Greenbank Farm and is open 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, and closed Wednesdays.

Gallery shows bronze, photos Ron Ward is the featured artist through July at Whidbey Art Gallery in Langley.

Ward is a self-taught

“Exuberance,” an oil painting by Anne Belov.

bronze sculptor who has recently discovered the freedom and spontaneity of encaustic (hot wax) painting. His style tends toward abstract expressionism although he is still experimenting with other forms.

Meet him at the art opening from 5 to 7 p.m.

Saturday, July 7.

Whidbey Art Gallery also presents its new member, Sandy Rubini, a photographer. Her work is surreal, ethereal, sensual and translucent, “and is reflective of my spiritual philosophy and is very much naturebased,” Rubini said. “At no other time am I more completely present than when I have a camera in my hand. I believe creativity is a direct portal to the divine living in each one of us.”
