Retired Rear Adm. William J. McDaniel (Ret.) has assisted with disaster relief around the world, served in Vietnam and even starred on a reality TV show. Now he has one more accolade as grand marshal of Oak Harbor’s Fourth of July parade.

The parade begins at 11 a.m. this morning, July 4, on Bayshore Drive.

“I’m very tickled. It’s an honor,” McDaniel said of being chosen as grand marshal. “They’ve had some wonderful grand marshals in the past and it’s an honor and I appreciate it.”

McDaniel, 69, lives on North Whidbey Island with his wife, Shirley.

He was born in Oklahoma and received his doctor of medicine degree in 1968, leading him to the Naval Aerospace Medical Institute

in Florida, where he became a Navy flight surgeon and embarked on worldwide assignments in Okinawa, Japan, aboard the USS Tripoli off the coast of Vietnam and to Whidbey Island Naval Air Station.

McDaniel served 32 years in the Navy but the adventures didn’t stop there. Ten years ago, he starred as the mole in the reality TV show “The Mole” for 13 weeks. In the show, contestants had to gather money that only one contestant would win in the end. McDaniel was chosen to be the mole, a contestant secretly working to sabotage the other contestants’ efforts.

“That was incredible.

We spent seven weeks in Switzerland and Italy filming the show. Anderson Cooper was the host,” McDaniel said, adding that he got to know See Marshal, A2

Jason McFayden, president of the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce board, stands in a narrow section of Pioneer Way. The chamber decided not to route the Fourth of July parade down the road because of concerns about mixing large crowds and parade floats on the narrow road.

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Pioneer Way in downtown Oak Harbor is once again at the center of controversy as upset merchants discovered that the Fourth of July parade will not travel on the skinny, one-way street through the retail core.

Part of the consternation comes from the fact that former Mayor Jim Slowik and

his administration had promised downtown merchants that the controversial project to turn downtown’s main drag into a one-way street would See parade, A8

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

Cooper and the other contestants very well and saw beautiful locations like Venice, the Alps and Rome.

People still recognize McDaniel from the show today, including a Canadian border guard who gave him a scare when she said she remembered him.

“Those things are fun and funny. It really was quite an experience. The most notable effect was I got a lot of close friends,” McDaniel said, adding that he is still close with the other contestants.

The most meaningful work he said he’s done in his life was with tsunami victims in Indonesia. In 2005, he led the efforts of the Naval Hospital Ship USNS Mercy and spent three months living in Indonesia.

“That has been the most meaningful and emotional thing I’ve ever done,” McDaniel said.

The Indonesian people McDaniel worked with were so grateful and didn’t ask for anything, he said.

“Working with those folks was so phenomenally touching,” McDaniel added. “All of us who worked there were touched so deeply.”

In a time when McDaniel said America needs something to feel good about, he speaks to groups about his experiences in Indonesia.

Recently, he spoke to a yacht club in Seattle and worried that the tough crowd of older folks wouldn’t feel what he felt. After he spoke, a past

commodore told him it was the best talk he’d heard.

McDaniel speaks all over the nation about disaster response, post traumatic stress disorder, his experiences on “The Mole” and more. He wrote a book, “Reflections of the Mole,” humorously detailing his time on the TV show, and he’s currently working on publishing a book about his work in Indonesia titled “Faces of the Tsunami.”

McDaniel also assisted with disaster relief from Hurricane Katrina and was Navy Wrestling Champion from 1973 through 1977, Interser vice Wrestling Champion in 1975 to 1976 and World Silver Medallist in CISM Military World Games, Rome, Italy in 1974. He earned a number of military honors, including the Defense Superior Service Medal, the Humanitarian Service Medal, Vietnam Service Medal with two battle stars and more.

Now, McDaniel said he loves living on Whidbey Island.

“It is so beautiful and delightful here,” he said.

After the parade, enjoy the carnival, which begins at 11 a.m. and the vendor marketplace, running from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. downtown. Family games run from 2 to 5 p.m. at Windjammer Park. For the grand finale, view fireworks from Windjammer Park at 10:30 p.m.

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 news 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

“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.”

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 Street 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.

State committee hears Whidbey’s veterans needs

By KATHY REED Staff reporter

The relationship between Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and the community of Oak Harbor took center stage Friday at a presentation before members of the Washington State Legislature’s Joint Committee on Veterans’ and Military Affairs Friday at the Oak Harbor Library.

Three of the committee’s 16 members, including Rep. Barbara Bailey (R-Oak Harbor), Rep. Tina Orwall (D-Des Moines) and Sen. Christine Rolfes (D-Bainbridge Island), began their day on Whidbey Island with a tour of the Navy base before hearing presentations and public comment at the library.

“Committee members are trying hard to get out and tour our military installations,” Bailey told the audience of about 40 people. “We are focusing on the economic impact the military has on our communities and what the military means to the economy.”

Bailey said many members of the bipartisan committee didn’t realize the military is one of the top economic drivers in Washington, adding that Friday’s visit was a chance to find out what is going on in Island County in regard to veterans affairs.

Oak Harbor City Council member Beth Munns was the first to present, sharing with committee members the unique relationship that exists between NAS Whidbey and the city.

“It’s not them against us,” Munns told the committee.

“This is a collaboration that goes on every day in many ways and I’m proud to be a part of it.”

Munns highlighted several ways in which the city and Navy work together, including joint community events like the annual Military Appreciation Picnic, the Fourth of July

parade, Sailor and Marine of the Year luncheons and the recent 10th anniversary observance of 9/11.

“This partnership even extends to police and fire protection,” Munns said. “In cases of domestic abuse, for instance, the military police will call in someone from Oak Harbor to assist in the investigation. Likewise, if there was to be a bomb scare at the high school, city officials would call the base, because they have the equipment to deal with it.”

Bailey asked Munns about the state’s role in the collaboration between the Navy and the city.

“When you are providing police and fire protection with no reimbursement, it can make a difference,” Munns acknowledged, referring to the fact there is no tax revenue collected from federal property. “As revenue in the city continues to decrease, and we’re down about 12 percent this year, it will become harder to manage until the economy picks up again.”

School issues Decreases in Impact Aid and the education of military children were also on the agenda, and Oak Harbor School District Superintendent Rick Schulte was the next to address the committee.

Schulte focused on the Interstate Compact on Educational Opportunity for Military Children, which has been adopted by 43 states and is designed to make it easier for military children to transfer between school districts and states. Because the Oak Harbor School District has been dealing with the education of military children since the base opened, the district was already practicing many of the compact’s provisions and frequently answers questions for other school districts

without as much experience with military children.

The Navy has also provided the school district with a big advantage, according to Schulte.

“I believe our military families are a huge strength,” he said. “The student body is diverse, the military students have traveled all over the world and they all get along.

Schools in neighboring districts are far less diverse.”

One issue Schulte did bring up was the Navy’s Exceptional Family Member program for special needs children. Overall, about 11.8 percent of the student body has special needs, which Schulte said is fairly consistent across the state.

“Even though the total percentage is consistent with the state, the incidence of severely disabled, higher needs children is higher,” Schulte said. “And the more severe needs students are Navy-connected.

“There are times when we have to pay to send students to other districts because we do have to address the unique needs of those with severe disabilities,” he continued.

Navy spouse Anita Giannaris addressed that issue with the committee during the public comments at the end of the meeting.

She said there is a higher incidence of severely disabled children in Oak Harbor because NAS Whidbey is designated an Exceptional Family Member Category 5 base, meaning Navy families with the most severely disabled and highest special needs children are sent here.

She said the designation needs to be changed.

Retired Adm. Lyle Bull joins Oak Harbor City Councilwoman Beth Munns during a presentation to the Washington State Legislature Joint Committee on Veterans’ and Military Affairs at the Oak Harbor Library.

“We are too remote. We don’t have the facilities here to meet those needs,” Giannaris said. “I don’t think we should be a Category 5 base.”

Veterans services The last official presentation for the committee was from Island County Veteran Services coordinator, Gerald Pfannenstiel, who gave an overview of the veterans services provided by the county to indigent veterans, such as food and fuel vouchers and assistance with rent, utilities or medications.

“We’ve also added case management to the Veterans Assistance Fund,” he said.

“One thing we do that no one else does,” he continued, “is we will pay for school clothing and school supplies for the children of indigent veterans.”

Pfannenstiel was joined by

Island County Commissioner Angie Homola, who briefed committee members on her desire and efforts to separate the money for the Veterans Assistance Fund from other county funds.

“I am hopeful and will work closely with the state Legislature to get that measure passed,” Homola said.

“There will be a lot of folks coming home and we want to be able to help them.”

South Whidbey Island resident Paulette Becker also expressed her concern for current members of the military and the number of deployments they have been expected to do.

“I am here today to ask for support for limiting deployments or instituting a draft,” she said. “There is a huge disconnect between the general population and the pain of our military men and women coming home.

“When you have been in combat, you are a changed person,” Becker continued.

“We have to do a better job at home of meeting those needs.”

In the end, committee members expressed their thanks for all the topics and viewpoints presented to them, promising to bring them to the attention of other members of the Legislature.

Hospital does a do-over with new board member

By NATHAN WHALEN Staff reporter

Rider Kaitlynn Eaton tends to a horse named Dusty with the help of HOPE volunteers Larry Eaton, left, and Dick Ward.

HOPE signs up riders for fall

WNT PRO

HOPE Therapeutic Riding Center is taking registrations for the 2012 fall quarter for therapeutic riding lessons.

The registration deadline is July 9 for current students, and July 16 for new and returning students.

The program offers specially trained and certified instructors who know how to address the needs of people of all ages who are facing a broad range of special challenges: From physical, cognitive to emotional. For the past 25 years, HOPE has helped students achieve greater mobility, selfconfidence and social skills, among other benefits.

Rather than teach all lessons

alike, each lesson is designed specifically to meet the special needs and goals of the individual student, whether they be better balance, hand/eye coordination, social interactions, muscle strengthening, building self-confidence and many others.

“Whatever the goal, all of our students have fun learning how to ride,” said Melissa Jacobe, program director and head instructor.

HOPE’s fall quarter will be held at both the North End location in Coupeville and the South End location in Langley. The quarter will run for nine weeks starting Aug. 19 in Coupeville and Aug. 28

in Langley.

Fee for fall quarter is $240.

There is an additional $30 charge for new students to cover the new student assessment. Assessments will be held in Coupeville July 23 to 25. A few scholarships are available to pay for part of the fees for those students who meet financial criteria. Fees and registration papers must be received by the deadline.

Required paperwork is available by calling or emailing HOPE. Contact HOPE at www. hope-whidbey.org or by phone, 253-279-7924 or 360221-7653.

A recent change in state law is forcing the commissioners for Whidbey General Hospital to re-appoint its newest member.

The elected board will re-appoint Georgia Gardner during a special meeting Thursday, July 5, at 9 a.m. 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 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.whid-

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 full-time equivalent employees, or doesn’t have an employee whose duties include maintaining and updating a website.

beygen.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

Creative woman finds way to help out Whidbey schools

By REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter

Corey Elliff, Erin Christensen and Aliina Elliott received scholarships to seek advanced accreditation or certification, presented by Dr. Jane Mays, pictured second from the right.

Whidbey General staff receive scholarships Three Whidbey General Hospital employees were recently awarded scholarships to seek advanced accreditation or certification.

The annual scholarship program honors the service of the former Chief Operating Officer/Chief Nursing Executive Amy Ayers.

This year, the board of directors of the Whidbey General Hospital Foundation was able to present three scholarships, in part because of a contribution from the hospital’s remittance processor, Retail Lockbox.

Retail Lockbox is a Tour de Whidbey bicycle event sponsor who responded to the event cancellation for this year by choosing to re-direct their contribution to support

continuing nursing education.

Their gift combined with ongoing contributions to the Amy Ayers Scholarship Fund made it possible to support the educational goals of the following three individuals.

Erin Christensen, a clerk in the Medical Ambulatory Care/Oncology clinic, currently has a bachelor’s degree in general studies and is a certified nursing assistant. Christensen is attending Skagit Valley College and seeking her degree as a registered nurse.

Aliina Marie Elliot, a Laborator y Assistant/ Phlebotomist, has a bachelor of science degree in cellular biology. Elliot is attending the medical laboratory tech-

nology program at Shoreline Community College.

Corey Eliff, an Emergency Medical Services paramedic, is seeking chaplain accreditation from the police/fire Chaplain Training Academy.

Dr. Jane Mays presented the scholarship checks on behalf of the board of directors.

“I was honored to present the awards to these ambitious folks,” said Dr. Mays in a press release. “The foundation is proud to administer this scholarship fund and to recognize outstanding individuals whose ongoing pursuit of knowledge benefits our hospital and our community.”

In the face of less funding for the Oak Harbor School District, a woman stepped up with a creative way to help teachers.

As Superintendent Rick Schulte and the Oak Harbor School Board work on budgeting for next school year, they have to reduce the Building Maintenance, Supplies and Operating Costs section by more than $750,000. This money funds all types of supplies classes use, including copy paper, colored pencils and markers. Schulte asked teachers and principals not to spend money on supplies until Congress decides if cuts will be made to federal Impact Aid during the school year.

When Christine Still heard that teachers won’t be able to purchase supplies for the next school year, she decided to take matters into her own hands. When

her ninth-grade daughter, Elise Still, came home from school talking about the problem, “That’s when I decided to ask the school if I could donate some supplies,” Christine Still said.

She recently held a mini supply drive among the Parent-Teacher Association members and collected a few large boxes of supplies.

“For me, at the school as a parent and participating, I thought this would be a small way I could help,” Still said.

The problem she faces now is collecting supplies during summer vacation.

Since her family likes to participate in triathlons and marathons, including the recent Deception Pass Challenge, Elise Still plans to participate in the challenging Benaroya Research Institute Seafair Triathlon July 22 to raise funds for the supply drive.

IN OUR OPINION

No finer place for the Fourth There are bigger towns in the U.S.A. but it’s doubtful that any of them pack more fun and patriotism into our nation’s birthday than Oak Harbor.

Oak Harbor has it all on the Fourth of July: A Grand Parade with Navy and other military participants; a street fair; pancake breakfast to benefit Rotary projects; a fantastic carnival where kids and families gather all day and most of the night; and to top it all off, a spectacular fireworks show with bombs bursting in air over Oak Harbor Bay. The weather, of course, will be “iffy,” but early-week forecasts are favorable, predicting partly sunny skies and temperatures in the 60s. Regardless, Oak Harbor has never let the weather get in the way of a great Independence Day celebration. Many families share fond memories of standing in a downpour waiting for a carnival ride or watching the fireworks. Compared to some years, this year’s weather looks downright comfortable. Even if it is a bit on the chilly side for July, just think of those millions of folks back east suffering through a string of humid, 100 degree days. If there’s a cool breeze and some scattered clouds playing peek-a-boo with the sun, be thankful.

The thousands who enjoy the Fourth of July in Oak Harbor should remember that all this stuff doesn’t just happen. The Chamber of Commerce spends months collecting fireworks show donations from local businesses while parade organizers spend countless hours making sure there’s a patriotic procession that will satisfy the spectators; and it takes a lot of personpower to make all the pancake batter and fry up all the sausages required to make sure townsfolk start the holiday on a full stomach.

Wednesday, July 4, may be the best day of the year in Oak Harbor. The pancake breakfast at the downtown YMCA starts at 8 a.m., the Grand Parade begins at 11 a.m. and the fireworks show lights up the sky just after dusk. The street fair will be busy all day and the carnival will run well into the night.

Don’t miss it by thinking you’ll find something better elsewhere. You won’t.

Though Jill Johnson’s largest single donation thus far has come from her family the majority of her other contributors are builders, developers and real estate agents, as shown in her current disclosure report. This support from persons and firms who have personal and direct interest in seemingly unbridled housing growth doesn’t bode well for Island County in general or Oak Harbor in particular.

A large body of evidence shows that Oak Harbor has more potential for economic growth by focusing upon business and housing development within current city limits, not outside them -which simply drives existing property owners’ taxes up while consuming forest and

farm resources. Believing in a “Field of Dreams” idea that “if you build it, they will come,” will further weaken the current housing market and existing business moxie.

If Johnson were to become county commissioner, as a spokesperson for advocates of unbridled building, she would send us right back to the failing build or bust fiscal model that got us into this mess.

Angie Homola should be retained as county commissioner for District 2. As an architect and dedicated steward of county government, she clearly possesses the necessary qualifications above and beyond the other candidates. She has proven that she is capable of taking on the many challenges Island County faces now and in the future. While all the

People with signs at least have a job This is response to, “New rules may slice dancing pizza people.” Whidbey News-Times, June 17).

Why is this any more a traffic issue than those waving political signs at crosswalks, yard sale cardboard signs, or pan-handlers?

Here we have people hired (employed during our economic slowdown), with an income who are paying taxes. What do you want to do? Put them back in the unemployment line!

It seems like all we have a city council for is to bicker back and forth, instead of trying to make our community a better place to live. I’m not going to even mention the time spent on the hat issue.

Why aren’t we trying to create something for our community, or for our children? Like a Chuck E Cheese house, or an all-night restaurant; maybe Denny’s?

I think those in our city council need to reassess what their role should be, or find another job!

Letters to the editor Learning goes well in Candyland Back on March 1, 2007 was the very first day of day care for our precious little daughter at Candyland Daycare in Oak Harbor. As first time parents, we were not sure what to expect. Would our daughter be safe, would she get the attention that she needed, would she be happy and learn the basics that every child should know as they grow up, and would she get along with the other children?

Within days, our fears and concerns were completely eliminated. My husband and I quickly realized then Candyland Daycare was home for our daughter. We would tell our family and friends they were like family and they provided us with a great feeling knowing that our little girl was always safe at Candyland Daycare.

When our daughter turned 3 years old, we enrolled her in Candyland Preschool. It was a blessed thing to see our daughter develop and grow even more and to see her learn to share with other children and to respect her elders along with respecting other children. Our daughter cares for other people and relishes in helping other people.

We attribute this positive trait to Candyland Daycare and preschool and their teaching methods.

She has learned many

things including her alphabets and numbers, coloring and writing skills, manners, and health habits, just to mention a few. She would come home with great projects, crafts, lessons, and stories of the fun things she did each day. Candyland has provided her a base from which she can develop and learn from and are valuable things for a child in an important stage of their young life. For that, she is ready for kindergarten!

It is unfair to put our feelings onto a page with words and sentences but it is the least we can do to express our incredible appreciation for her dedication to our daughter and other children that she provides care for.

Our final words for the day are thank you for everything that you have done. My husband and I will never forget you for the positive influence you have had on our little girl. Our appreciation will be eternal.

Milinda and Chris Hudson Mount Vernon

Good grief, we need a change It is hard not to just bite your tongue on all this stuff going on with our county commissioners these days at their meetings and then you have to try to figure out who the heck to vote for during this race for that office. It’s really enough to make you dizzy.

Some of it is so absurd you want to laugh, but then you realize those are the people who are spending our hardearned tax dollars. That is no laughing matter!

For 26 years I was a part

www.WhiDBEYNEWSTIMES.com

of county government as a department head and watched lots of foolishness take place by commissioners, but none on the order we have today. I truly worry that things have really gotten off balance and wonder just how we can bring back some sanity. I used to be irritated that the board was all male and had little sense of family impacts on the things they were doing, always focused on land use and development. Today I am irritated that the board is all female and seems to have little sense of family impacts on things they are doing. “Good grief,” is all I can say.

We have two races heating up. Everyone wishes one of them would be the position Kelly Emerson holds as I have yet to find anyone who thinks she improves decision making on the board of commissioners. But, as you all know, she is sitting tight and successfully running for the race for the least useful county commissioner I have seen in 30 years. Thank you tea party!

Good grief No. 2!

My only hope is that we somehow come to our voting senses in this upcoming primary to find people who can help the situation, not make it worse. If we could make some of these county leadership positions nonpartisan tomorrow, I would be voting for that as this Republican/ Democrat battle with the tea party spin is really creating a drag on our great place. Let’s find someone who wants to do something for the place we live and not for political reasons.

Make lake less attractive to geese Whidbey Aububon Society has been asked to weigh in on the Honeymoon Lake Canada goose issue.

Our chapter does not support either the lethal method of removing the geese or their capture and relocation. The former should an option of last resort; Canada geese will continue to drop into the lake each year and use the habitat provided by the homeowners.

Relocation is another temporary fix and should only be done with the permission of the proper authorities. A real possibility exists of an avian disease being spread from one flock to another at the relocation site.

The irony is that if a particular territorial pair of geese is eliminated, then multiple couples may move in. This results in more geese than before. Attempting to eliminate Canada geese in Western Washington is similar to trying to empty Honeymoon Lake with a teaspoon.

A much better solution for the lakeside property owners is simply to stop feeding the geese and to alter the lakeside habitats.

Shrubs and other tall plants along with other barriers can be attractive and effective ways to make the geese feel unsafe from terrestrial predators. Biologists can provide attractive and effective ways to make the geese feel unsafe from terrestrial predators.

Local biologist Russell Link devotes several pages to preventative goose measures in his book, “Living with Wildlife in the Pacific Northwest.” We

Readers may submit pictures by email to news@whidbeynewsgroup.com. encourage the homeowners at Honeymoon Lake to make use of the advice from this book and other resources.

Whidbey Audubon members are willing to come help solve this problem if invited. It needs to be emphasized that, along with most nuisance wildlife issues, this dilemma was created by humans.

Canada geese were brought from Eastern Washington to

our side of the state for hunting purposes. That, coupled with habitat alterations that include clearing forests away from lake edges, created the problem. Only humans have the intelligence and resources to resolve the problem by making the habitat less attractive to the geese.

Visionaries needed to run for office on Whidbey

By Steve Morrow

We recently attended Man of La Mancha at the Whidbey Playhouse.

When the play concluded, we found ourselves longing to see such idealism and commitment in politics at all levels of government.

go

To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow To run where the brave dare not

To right the unrightable wrong To love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star Is this really an unreachable dream: a healthy country, a stable economy, safe neighborhoods, jobs for all who will work, care for the elderly and disadvantaged -- all without saddling future generations with inordinate debt?

It seems impossible. We debate

Sound off

hot issues such as abortion and same sex marriage while not dealing with overarching issues of national debt, private sector job creation, immigration policy, health and elder care.

It seems an unbeatable fight against complexity wrapped in partisan politics – yet the status quo generates so much unbearable sorrow.

Where is leadership that will risk reelection to cross partisan lines and special interests to do what is best for all?

Our issues are huge. Resolving them will require compromise and shared pain by all. As just one example, broad job creation may require changes in taxation, regulation (environmental, permitting, trade, import/export), unions, and much more.

Who will lead us? Who will go

into complexity where the brave dare not go? Who will stand up to right the unrightable wrongs of our society? Who will tackle immigration policy which is unfair and unbalanced today with states attempting to enforce federal laws which are unenforced nationally?

Whether we embrace illegals and open our borders, expel illegals and tighten our borders, or follow some other course -- we need to find agreement and implement our choices fairly and consistently.

Who will lead us in love, pure and chaste from afar? All of our laws and policy impact people — people who need our love, compassion and empathy. Think of the single mom on welfare who cannot work because an entry level job minus day care payments would leave her unable to support her children. Think of the worker who loses his job because he lost his transportation when his car was impounded and sold at auction

because he couldn’t pay the fine, storage and towing fees. Think of us who watch prices rise as our incomes remain the same, suffering the results of inflation due to burgeoning government spending and debt.

Let it not be about power and politics. Let it be about a radical and balanced approach to creating a prosperity that benefits and provides for all. Let us be a people who care, who are secure enough to at least consider the needs of others along with our own.

This is my quest, to follow the star No matter how hopeless, no matter how far To fight for the right without question or pause To be willing to pass into hell for a heavenly cause Who will embrace this vision for us? Who will say with Don Quixote, the Man of La Mancha:

And I know if I’ll only be true to this glorious quest That my heart lies peaceful and calm When I’m laid to my rest And the world will be better for this That one man scorned and covered with scars Still strove with his last ounce of courage To reach the unreachable star.

And, just maybe, one with such vision and courage would become our hero for being willing to dive into the fray while risking scorn and scars.

Who will take up such a visionary gauntlet? Who shall we put in local, county, state and national office in November?

Steve Morrow lives in Oak Harbor.

Parade CONTINUED FROM A1 have no impact on parades and events downtown.

New Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley summoned leaders of the Chamber of Commerce, Downtown Merchants Association and members of city administration to a strained meeting Monday morning at City Hall to discuss the parade route, which will follow Bayshore Drive instead of Pioneer Way. Jason McFayden, president of the chamber board, and Chamber Director Jill Johnson were on the defensive as they questioned about the route. They defended the decision to pick the “safer route” because of concerns about the risk of mixing oversized parade floats, horses, large crowds and candy-chasing kids on the one-lane street, specifically at the narrow “bump out” areas.

“Our concern is for the safety of the 5,000 people who are going to be there,” McFayden said, adding that some parade participants indicated they wouldn’t be willing to go down Pioneer Way. “I’m very, very sorry,” he said, ”but this parade is not for the downtown merchants. It’s for the people of Oak Harbor.”

Johnson said the parade is a chamber event and is covered by the chamber’s insurance company, which

advised her to pick the safest route. She said she really wanted to have the parade on Pioneer Way for many reasons, but safety concerns were paramount.

“I appreciate the last-minute peer pressure, but there was time for this conversation previously,” Johnson told the mayor.

While at least some city officials were aware of the route, downtown merchants only found out last week when they received a written notice that the parade would be diverted a block away. Ron Apgar, president of the merchants group, sent an email to Johnson expressing apprehension over the decision and its impact on business and customers.

“We want to voice the concerns we have for the 42 businesses that will be impacted by this change in a negative way,” he wrote.

In response, Johnson sent an email explaining the concerns about safety with large crowds. She wrote that the street would be more appropriate for smaller parades.

“The chamber was very clear in our concerns about the parade when the street was being designed,” she wrote. “I expressed our worries multiple times and like you, we were given assurances that the street would work well for parades.

Unfortunately, that simply was not the case.”

Monday, Apgar reiterated complaints about the lack of communication.

I’m very, very sorry, but this parade is not for the downtown merchants. It’s for the people of Oak Harbor.

— Jason McFayden, chamber president

away from us and we want to know. We just want to know,” he said.

Kristi Jensen, a downtown merchant, said businesses have been preparing for the parade crowds, only to find out that the crowds won’t be there.

Johnson apologized for the lack of communication, but explained that a lot of “stakeholders” were involved in the decision. She said representatives from the Oak Harbor Rotary, which manages the parade, and the city were “at the table” when she made the decision at a meeting in early June.

The City Council approved a noise permit for the parade at the June 18 regular meeting. The document states that the parade will be “along Bayshore Drive and Pioneer Way.” Johnson said the chamber was ready to answer any questions about the parade at the public meeting.

The chamber’s website, however, doesn’t have any Fourth of July events on the calendar and the only information on the site doesn’t include the parade’s location.

Monday, McFayden and Johnson were obviously upset at being summoned by the mayor. Johnson said

he was trying to use the downtown merchants and the mayor’s staff in an effort to pressure them into changing the route. She said the city staff members aren’t going to disagree with the mayor.

“They’re afraid to tell you the truth,” she said.

Dudley, however, said he wasn’t trying to pressure anyone, but he just wanted to understand where the safety concerns came from.

He said he sympathizes with the merchants after all they’re been through with the one-way project.

Many downtown merchants were opposed to city plans to convert Pioneer Way into an eastbound, oneway street. Dudley fought the proposal when he was on the council and repeatedly questioned whether the street revision would impact parades and events.

Then, Native American remains were discovered when the road was dug up last year, which delayed the project for months as the merchants struggled to attract customers to the torn-up, closed-off street. To top it off, it turned out that city staff members ignored a warning from the state about the possibility of cultural resources in the area.

Whidbey youth teams compete in district playoffs Junior Baseball Recovering from a tough, 7-6 last-inning loss to South Skagit Sunday, the North Whidbey Junior Baseball (13/14) baseball team routed South Skagit 11-1 at Fort Nugent Park Monday.

The two teams met last night in the final game of their best-of-three series to determine the District 11 representative to the state tournament. Results were not available at press time.

In its final at bat Sunday, South Skagit had two outs and no one on before scoring the winning runs.

Skagit also rallied early, going up 4-0 after two innings.

NWLL scored three in the third to get back in the game.

Avery Aguirre doubled, Dominic Jones sacrificed, Cory Score reached on an error, then consecutive singles by Chris Levy, Brandon Philp and Zack VanHeuklom produced the three spot.

South Skagit tacked on a run in the fourth, then NWLL took the lead, 6-5, with a three-run fifth.

Score and Cooper Stone each finished with two hits for North Whidbey, and Chris Levy, Brandon Philp, VanHeuklom, Aguirre and Jones had one each.

NWLL coach Shawn Philp said starting pitcher Aguirre “did a really good job” and “pulled us through five innings.”

He was also pleased with his team’s two double plays, one unassisted by first baseman Score.

Down 1-0 after the first inning Monday, coach Philp said he was concerned his team would get off to another

slow start. That concern was wiped away in the second when North Whidbey erupted for eight runs.

After giving up a run in the first, NW pitcher Stone settled in and put up zeros as he threw an economical 61 pitches in five innings.

He was backed by an “error free” and “amazing” defense, according to coach Philp.

Damian Simpkins, Aguirre and Jones highlighted the defensive play, coach Philp said, with diving catches in the outfield.

Overall, according to Philp, it was a stellar performance by his club: “I have never seen these kids play so well.”

Babe Ruth Three turned out to be a lucky number for the Sedro-Woolley 13/14 Babe Ruth team in its 10-7 district tournament win in eight innings over Oak Harbor in Burlington Monday.

Burlington chipped away and eventually tied it at 4 in the fifth. It had a chance to take the lead in the top of the final inning but was thwarted

in the final inning, was led on offense by Shelby Chambers and Jules Toney who both reached base three times.

Sabalausky also lauded the defensive play of catcher Chambers, saying “she saved at least eight more runs just by her catching ability.”

Sedro-Woolley used an eight-run fifth inning then hung on in the sixth to knock out North/Central Whidbey Monday.

Trailing 3-0 after one inning, North/Central Whidbey built an 8-4 lead going into the bottom of the fifth inning when Sedro-Woolley ignited its eight-run rally.

In the top of the final inning, North/Central Whidbey scored three runs, two on Cami Bristow’s double, but fell one run shy as the game ended with runners on second and third.

Bristow finished with three doubles and four RBI. Toney was 3-for-3 with two walks and three runs. Matty Nelson and Hal Lemme added singles.

Sabalausky was “really proud” of her team. She added, “The girls really concentrated at the bat, and their offensive sliding, which is a big issue for girls this age, was great. It was also nice to see them comeback and then almost comeback again.”

Painting may be a fun pastime for Helen Bates, but as part of Whidbey Allied Artists, it has become even more. Bates will be one of many artists showing at the Whidbey Allied Artists’ art show to be held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday through Monday, July 6 to 9, at the Coupeville Recreation Hall.

See artists in action and view art; there is no admission charge.

The walls of Bates’ and her husband, Ken’s, home are lined with Bates’ paintings of flowers in vases, colorful landscapes and images of her dog and cat.

Bates uses acrylics, monotype, watercolors and oils to represent the world as she views it.

“As for my style of painting, if I have one, I guess it could be called ‘augenblick,’ a German term referring to the blink of an eye. I cannot paint in the

naturalistic style of some Pacific Northwest artists. My pictures are simple and lacking in detail, much like what one might see in the blink of an eye,” Bates said.

The Whidbey Allied Artists do three or four shows a year and many of the artists, including Bates, show their work yearround at Wind and Tide Book Store on Pioneer Way. “It’s a good group,” Bates said, adding that the variety of art includes photography, stained glass, hand-dyed scarves, pencil, basketry and even orbs that tell stories.

Bates has been with the group off and on since 1994 but she’s been creating art for most of her life. When she and her husband lived in Texas in 1988, their apartment had no art. Since she knew no one in the area, she spent her time painting and filled her home with beautiful landscapes.

The retired teacher/administrator moved to Oak Harbor

in 1994 and learned under Joan Brosnahan, the late artist.

Brosnahan got Bates started with watercolors and into the Whidbey Allied Artists.

From traveling with students overseas to leading cruises and being part of the American Association of University Women and the Whidbey Playhouse, Bates has kept busy.

“Even though I’ve been involved in a lot of things around here, I still come back to the art,” Bates said.

Bates’ art beautifies her home with bright colors inspired by Monet and scenes right out of Whidbey Island. One room bursts with the myriad colors of her art hanging three or five to a wall. A verdant landscape hangs near a portrait of her dog Tipper and vases of painted flowers bloom beneath towns painted from cruise ships.

Hanging beside her own art is a variety of works by other artists, especially local artists she supports.

“It’s more than a hobby, I guess. I love being surrounded by beautiful things, including my dog and my husband --- and not

in that order,” Bates said, laughing.

Bates said she does her art for fun, not to sell. One plus is getting to be around other artists.

“They’re neat people,” Bates said.

The positive reinforcement she’s received from them has been wonderful for her, Bates said. However, she said she’ll always remember the highest accolade she received from Brosnahan: “Helen, you’re improving.”

“That made me feel good,” Bates said.

“We’re all very indebted to Joan (Brosnahan). She was our mentor and everything else. Our friend, our mentor, our teacher,” Bates said.

Nearly 20 artists will present work at the show, including Margaret Livermore, the show coordinator and a watercolor artist. A number of artists will do demonstrations at the show, including Bates, Mary Alice Sterling, who creates baskets, and Mike O’Connell, who makes story orbs and more.
