the LADLES of LOVE Langley’s Soup Kitchen celebrates a milestone with the 1,000th lunch served BY JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter
T
he Soup Kitchen in Langley will celebrate a remarkable milestone Thursday when volunteers dish up a free community lunch for the 1,000th time. Group officials say it’s impossible to know just how many people have been fed since the kitchen’s inception nearly 10 years ago, but a rough calculation of the number of free meals served simmers around 110,000. Each of those meals was the result of volunteer efforts and with donations, both food and monetary, from the community.
‘Citizens Against Palatial Stations’ hopes to defeat EMS levy lid lift BY BEN WATANABE Staff reporter

A group opposing the South Whidbey Fire/EMS levy lift has its main argument in the name: Citizens Against Palatial Stations. The informal group of a dozen South Whidbey voters assembled this week and will vote against a 15 cent levy increase. Dean Enell, a vocal opposition leader in Langley, disagreed with the district’s basic premise of needing the money for operations. “When I see what they’ve used that money for, I see that they’re over-funded,” Enell said. South Whidbey’s fire protection and emergency services district has a budget of $2.24 million. The overwhelming majority of $2.01 million is budgeted for operations, with $205,000 planned for capital expenses such as facilities and engines. Since 1990, the fire district’s capital expenses have spiked 11 years, coinciding with major purchases of fire engines, property and station construction. For the past 12 years, South Whidbey Fire/EMS has been a debt-free district, and since 1987, only twice accrued debt to pay off an aerial apparatus as part of annexing Langley and for the engine at the Clinton station. “Do we want to make interest payments?” asked Fire Commissioner Kenon Simmons. “That’s the bottom line. Interest rates are coming down, but even at 3 or 4 percent, you’re paying double for that same building because of interest payments.”

“It’s a God thing.” Sharon Giberson, Clinton resident and soup kitchen founder
“It’s a God thing,” said Sharon Giberson, a Clinton resident and an organization founder. Giberson started the soup kitchen with Connie Angst in 2003. At first, the pair was thinking about volunteering at a mission in Everett, but instead decided to form one of their own in Langley. They approached the CMA Church’s board, now The Island Church of Whidbey, for the OK to hold the lunches in their kitchen, and gathered volunteers from the church’s beacon group. Deciding to hold two lunches a week, on Tuesday and Thursday, the pair worked with four or five volunteers and served crowds of about 30 people, Giberson recalled. That number has since swelled considerably. Today, lunch attendance often numbers up to 150 people, though the average over the years is believed to hover around 110. Some past special events have seen turnouts greater than 250, however. According to Jean Matheny, not

The event has become a community affair and many just come to catch up with friends and neighbors, she said. “We’ve found that a lot of people come just to be social,” Matheny said. Matheny took over the Thursday lunch for Angst a number of years
ago. She cooks, organizes and oversees the day’s activities but, as is often the case with loose volunteer organizations, she doesn’t have a formal title. Neither does Giberson. “They’ve (the volunteers) been calling me Soup Kitchen Mom,” Giberson laughed. “I don’t know if Jean wants that title or not.”

Holy rockabilly! Homecoming Week hit South Whidbey High School on Monday, complete with costume and custom. Each day leading to Blueand-White Friday (the day of the homecoming football game against Sultan) had its own dress-up theme. On Monday, students hopped in the DeLorean and visited the sock hop fifties for Grease Lightning inspiration. Leather jackets, hot pink pullovers, puffy skirts and neck bandanas were en vogue in the SWHS cafeteria. The week will be capped by the homecoming court announcement during halftime Friday and the Happiest Place on Earth homecoming dance Saturday. Other theme days included Superhero, class choice of kindergarten for freshmen, Steve Urkel (sophomores), pirate (juniors) or toga (seniors) and grandparents.

Shoreline Master Program rules make public debut BY JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter Property rights advocates and public beach access supporters sparred at a meeting in Freeland last week. The hot-button topic of how access to the shoreline will be handled in the future was one of several issues discussed at a workshop Tuesday concerning proposed changes to Island County’s Shoreline Management Program. The planning document dictates how new and existing development will be managed over the next 20 years. County officials have been working for more than two years to update the program as is required by state law. Packed with the latest advancements in science and best management practices, the update’s primary authors say the document’s policy goals are to foster reasonable and appropriate uses on the shoreline, protect natural resources and promote public beach access. The meeting, which was the first of three scheduled workshops on the plan, saw healthy attendance and discussion, particularly concerning the topic of public beach access. Diehard supporters of improved access to the shoreline argued that county officials aren’t doing enough to reclaim accesses that have been lost to encroachment by private landowners. “They are critically important,” said Mike McVay, founder of Island Citizens For Public Beach Access. Similarly, Steve Erickson, litigation coordinator for Whidbey Environmental Action Network, lobbied that this is the county’s chance to adopt clear policies to recover those lost accesses. McVay also advocated for

On the other side of the argument, several property owners and representatives of the development industry worried that the proposed rules go too far. Some of the objections were based on misunderstandings of just what’s being proposed. For example, a Sandy Hook man said he thought the county had generally done a good job with the new program, but said it would be a “cold day in hell” before he was required to make his private dock open to the public. The amended rules do not require existing private property to be made available to the public, expect perhaps in rare cases where the land is found to actually belong to the public. The amended program does address new develop-

ment, however, requiring all new subdivisions on the shoreline of five homes or more to consider including a public beach access. Several people addressed the issue. Some questioned whether government might be overstepping its bounds while others suggested such a mandate would hamper development. Others at the meeting worried the update will add to regulations that are already too onerous. Tim Black said he’s been navigating the county’s permit process to rebuild an old family home for the past six months but he is still no closer to getting the green light from planners.
“What do I do, get on the my knees and beg?” Black said. “I’m willing to do that, by the way.” The two-hour meeting also saw discussion on a range of other issues, from rising sea levels and tax exemptions to how the new rules might impact local farms. The second meeting in the series, which took place Monday in Coupeville, saw discussion of many of the same topics. The last meeting was scheduled to take place Tuesday on Camano Island.

COUNTY Voter Guides distributed General Election ballots will be mailed to local voters this week. Also being distributed this week is the Whidbey Island Voter Guide, a publication developed by Whidbey Island’s community newspapers — The Whidbey Examiner, The Whidbey News-Times and the South Whidbey Record — to help voters learn about the candidates and issues that are on the November ballot. The guide presents statements and photos submitted by political candidates to the Washington Secretary of State’s Elections Division. “After the Island County Auditor’s Office announced it could not afford to publish a county voter guide as it had in the past, we stepped up to provide that service
to our readers,” said Publisher Kasia Pierzga. “We feel it is critically important for voters to be able to find that information not only online, but also in print, delivered to their door with their local newspaper.” The Voter Guide is in the Oct. 17 issue of the Whidbey News-Times and South Whidbey Record, and the Oct. 18 issue of The Whidbey Examiner. Additional copies will be available at local libraries and post offices.

SCHOOLS District sees enrollment dip Enrollment in South Whidbey’s public schools has taken a dip this year. In May, at the end of the last school year, there were 1,456 students. As of September, the first month of classes in the South Whidbey School District, there are 1,407. South Whidbey’s by school breakdown is: 511 at the high school, 65 at the South Whidbey Academy, 324 at Langley Middle School and 507 at the elementary school.
FIRE/EMS Car crashes keep EMTs busy The first windy Whidbey weekend had South Whidbey Fire/EMS on its toes this weekend. Rain and slick roads contributed to a pair of car crashes Friday night. Both were on Highway 525, one near Crawford Road and one at the intersection of Bush Point Road and the highway. One man was transported
to Whidbey General Hospital and released without injury. “It was my understanding that was a pretty minor one, in terms of injury,” said South Whidbey Fire/EMS Chief Rusty Palmer. The fire district also responded to eight medical calls and one rubbish fire Friday. In total, there were more than 25 medical calls from Friday to Monday. “The whole weekend looked horrible, but actually it was pretty good,” Palmer said. Saturday saw a pair of watercraft calls. One was a boat adrift, and the other was a tow for a boat that had a motor problem. The Coast Guard was called in to tow that boat and two passengers which drifted into the shipping lanes of Admiralty Inlet around noon. “Typically, the Coast Guard will make sure no one is in the water,” Palmer said. “If there is, they will call a water assist.” High winds Sunday knocked a few trees down and one tree into power lines. Despite wind gusts up to 25 mph yesterday, there was only one call at 9:30 p.m. for a tree over road that didn’t fall. There was also a tree in a power line in Clinton on Tuesday morning that was quickly taken care of.

South Whidbey Fire/ EMS filed charges with the Island County Prosecutor’s Office, which reached a restitution settlement for $3,000.
PORT OF SW Port balks on shoreline gift
Port secures speed limit signs
It appears a gift to the public of nearly 300 feet of shoreline on Mutiny Bay will have to wait. Port of South Whidbey commissioners met in regular session last week and briefly discussed whether or not to accept the gift. The board did not rule it out, but instead tabled the matter for further consideration. Island County officials recently confirmed that Frank Robinson, founder of the Robinson Helicopter Company, planned to donate the beach to the public. The county is struggling to maintain what property it has and is hoping another public agency will take the donation. Public Works leaders and a majority of the Island County Commissioners have voiced strong support for taking the property if no one else will, however, and it’s beginning to look like that may turn out to be the case. South Whidbey Parks and Recreation declined to take the land and the port commissioners voiced
Highway 525 in Clinton will soon be outfitted with two new electronic speed limit signs. This past August, the Clinton Chamber of Commerce and the Port of South Whidbey teamed up and applied for federal grant funding distributed through the area’s Regional Transportation and Planning Organization. The idea was to secure enough money to purchase at least two of the electronic signs and post them in strategic locations in Clinton so they might slow motorists who speed through town to and from the ferry dock. The hope is that the signs will solve a safety issue and also boost commerce in town. If drivers are going a little slower, they might just take notice of Clinton’s many businesses. The grant requires a small match of about $2,000, which will be split between the port and chamber. Due to the federal allocation and planning process, it could be six months before the signs are installed.

little support during Tuesday’s meeting. Commissioner Dennis Gregoire talked about a possible partnership with the county to deal with administrative costs. Commissioner Curt Gordon made it clear he’s not interested in accepting park land with no potential for economic development. “It would be great for public to own but it should be owned and maintained by a parks department,” said Gordon, in a later interview. The board is expected to discuss the issue again, possibly at a special meeting scheduled for Oct. 30.

Top-down control drowns us To the editor: At a recent candidate forum, Commissioner Helen Price-Johnson remarked that the Clean Water Utility tax had been crafted to mitigate previous cuts to the Law and Justice budget. The taxing utility was enacted administratively without a consenting vote by the citizens under the authority of RCW 36.89.080. That law dealt with storm water control, and monies could be “used only for” control measures. Storm water can be more than rainwater running off roofs and roads. The water must go somewhere. The tax supplanted funds that went to control drainage, but it also followed the storm water into other areas’ surface water monitoring, critical areas enforcement, low-impact development, and watershed planning. It followed the surface water
as it seeped into groundwater. It mandated septic tank inspections because the water might pick up sewage. The runoff runs into waters where the salmon and shellfish play, so the ordinance swept up their regulation. These renewed and expanded programs were floated on the new tax, and the previous funds were flushed into other programs (although I don’t recall seeing any more deputies on the road). But why stop there? Cows drink the water, so the tax could cover Public Health monitoring of milk and the stores that sell it. People drink the water, so all of the Public Health budget could be supplanted. What is the proper ambit of government “management” of everyone’s life? Like storm water seeping into ground water, top-down control seeps into the aquifer of private decision-making that supplies community life. The apparent benefits of government regulation are counteracted by the unseen costs of unregulated government seepage. The dike around proper government may be erected arbitrarily, but it must be erected if society is not to drown in the rising flood of

Romney dominated, still lost To the editor: Mitt Romney dominated the first debate, but he didn’t win it. Aggressive lies are still lies. His tax cut plan would cost $5 trillion. The deficit has not doubled since Obama took office. The $716 billion in savings Obama made to Medicare does not come out of benefits. Companies do get a tax break when they ship jobs overseas. (On July 19 the Senate rejected a bill that would have eliminated that break.) And Donald Trump does not look like a small business to me. Not long after Mother Jones released Romney’s video tape disparaging 47 percent of us, it released a Bain Capital promotional tape on which Romney said: “Bain Capital is an investment partnership which was

formed to invest in startup companies and ongoing companies, then to take an active hand in managing them and hopefully, five to eight years later, to harvest them at a significant profit.” “Harvest” is another word for “fleece.” I, for one, don’t want Romney harvesting the treasury of the United States or fleecing people making under $50,000 a year, the 47 percent he disparaged for not paying income taxes. His experience at Bain has taught him just how to do that: bust the unions, reduce the workforce with downsizing and outsourcing, pay lower wages to those who remain, and make them pay their fair share of taxes. Then, as he suggested in the debate, let the poor take care of each other. ANN ADAMS Oak Harbor

Global warming is deadly serious To the editor: So the president took some hits in the first debate. He seemed caught in the minutiae of his job, snagged by his own knowledge of the intricacies of leadership while his challenger was free to swipe freely, unhindered by the complexity of the issues or the office. But that’s the nature of these things. For hard political reasons, the president seemed unable at the time to cut through his opponent’s bluster or his own hard-earned knowledge of the cost of telling the truth in a vicious political climate. Many of us were frustrated by what he did not say — about the freedom-crushing power of a handful of plutocrats and corporations, the decades-long failure of private insurance companies to extend health care to all, the continuing erosion of the commons under the banner of privatization, or how the radical individu-
www.Southwhidbeyrecord.com
alism behind vouchers for schools or health care will destroy the ties that hold us together as a society. But of the many things the president felt he could not say, what we most needed to hear was a response to Romney’s disingenuous question, “Why not take advantage of the oil, gas and coal right under our feet to create jobs?” The question seems reasonable enough. We all hate the rising gasoline prices, we know that economic growth depends on cheap energy, we have to cut our dependence on foreign oil. So why not use all the fuel we have right here at home? The answer is obvious only if you understand that the problem is not supply but cost. Yes, the energy is available. We have huge coal reserves, plenty of natural gas from fracking, and massive potential in tar sands north of the border. That’s what the XL pipeline is all about. In fact, if we were to burn all the carbon that the energy companies have identified, it would keep our economy growing into the next century. So why not do it? Because the planet simply cannot absorb the carbon dioxide
that would be released. The cost is life on this planet that we love. If we burn even a fifth all the gas, coal and oil available, it will raise the temperature of the earth beyond the limits of human life as we know it, wrote Bill McKibben in an article that rapidly went viral on the internet this summer. The harsh truth is that 80 percent of that carbon must remain in the ground. And yet it is worth a dazzling $27 trillion to the energy companies. They are unlikely to give it up without a fight. It’s no wonder they are spending millions of dollars to buy the votes of Congress and, indeed, the presidency itself. If they have their way, we can count on not merely a continuation, but an intensification of the extreme weather that we are already experiencing as, year after year, the ice in the Arctic melts and distorts the jet stream, as warming sea water concentrates the power of hurricanes, and as a thawing tundra releases heat-trapping methane producing fire and drought in some places, floods in others. Ultimately, within our children’s lifetimes, life itself will become seriously degraded. Global
warming is not a hoax, nor is it the laugh line that Romney made of it in his convention speech. It is literally deadly serious. It’s too bad the president was unable to say this. No doubt his advisors warned him that people are not ready to hear it, and they may be right. But there is a great longing abroad for truth, and there are signs that the American public is breaking out of the denial of recent years. Recent polls suggest that the summer’s frightening weather is beginning to convince people, and over 70 percent now acknowledge that climate change is real. A major climate awareness event scheduled in Seattle with McKibben and others just after election day is already sold out. It’s true that many who care about the future of our planet have been disappointed by the president’s limited attention to climate change, but in this election we have a very clear choice between a candidate who is deeply beholden to the oil companies and a president who is ready to work if we care enough to give him our vote and then to press his administration to take action on the most urgent challenge ever to face our species.

Vote for the most private & public sector experience

“guys,” be they Republican or Democratic candidates, so here are some facts that may help. Republican partisans claim that their guys are good for jobs and business and with the economy being in the tank they figure they can run on this claim and people won’t notice that they are not the big “job creators” that they claim to be. The Republicans’ greatest skill is obstructing any job programs that will help Americans, just so it will hopefully make Obama look bad. Think about that for a minute, making Obama look bad is more important to the Republicans than your pain. According to the U.S. Department of Labor since 1961, starting with Kennedy and ending with Obama in 2012, the economic policies of the Republican Party have created 23.9 million jobs for Americans. During this same period the economic policies of the Democratic Party have created 42 million jobs for Americans. When the Republicans bloviate about being “good for jobs and business” they are either ignorant of this fact and buy into the party line or are disingenuous because this is not what they claim. During this same period these “make the government small enough to drown in the bath tub” Republicans increased the federal, state and local payrolls by 7.1 million positions as opposed to the Democratic Party adding 6.3 million positions. Both numbers are quite large but still shows the “party of small government” beating out the Democratic Party with public sector employment. All these facts make me
wonder when will the pain of being a Republican, of being associated with a political party that has shown itself to be an abject failure along the very political lines they claim to be so strong on, when will this pain drive more Republicans to another party that has more of their interests at heart? Vote Republican? Not on your life, I like people too much to want to prolong their pain. DAN FREEMAN Clinton
Basic math stumps Lauderdale To the editor: Jeff Lauderdale’s campaign website states that “logic and science must be applied to all of the challenges” we’re facing. Apparently, Lauderdale’s version of “logic and science” doesn’t include facts and elementary math. At the candidates forum last July Lauderdale criticized the Conservation Futures Fund. Conservation Futures has helped purchase conservation lands throughout the county, such as Double Bluff, Ala Spit, the Davis Slough Heron Rookery, and development rights on working farmland. It currently costs the owner of a $250,000 house less than $13 per year. Lauderdale expressed concern that “the county would end up owning ‘every square inch’ of Whidbey and Camano islands” (South Whidbey Record, July 25). How realistic is his concern? The 2006 County Assessors’ data shows the total value of all taxable land and buildings in Island County at about $9.8 billion. I don’t have the figure for 2006, but in 2011 Conservation Futures was projected to bring in about $666,000. So, at this rate how many years would it take for Conservation Futures to end up owning “every square inch” of Whidbey and Camano islands? $9,800.000,000 divided by $666,000 = 14,714.7 years. So, at current rates all of Whidbey and Camano Islands will have been purchased by the Conservation Futures Fund in about 15,000 years. What is it with these Tea Party politicians and wanna-be politicians? Kelly Emerson’s big issue is celebrating the War of 1812 and Jeff Lauderdale is worried about 15,000 years in the future. Personally, I’d rather have county commissioners like Angie Homola and Helen Price Johnson who look out for the future while also taking care of the here and now. STEVEN ERICKSON Langley

Coupeville stuns South Whidbey, seizes The Bucket BY BEN WATANABE Staff reporter LANGLEY — South Whidbey’s spot at the 1A football district playoffs slipped away like Coupeville’s running backs. A fumble ruling killed the Falcons’ chance at a late comeback in the 18-13 Wolves’ victory. Coupeville pounded South Whidbey’s defense with a dominant rushing offense that gained first downs and an 18-0 lead by the third quarter. More importantly for the Wolves, they kept the Falcons’ offense off the field, left Waterman Field with The Bucket and grabbed a playoff spot. “It’s my first time ever losing to Coupeville,” said Falcon senior co-captain Aaron Curfman, who plays fullback and linebacker. “It’s horrible.” However upsetting it was for South Whidbey’s players, Coupeville’s players and fans were elated as they ran back from the Falcon sideline with The Bucket in hand, and a ticket to the playoffs. “The kids played their hearts out,” said Wolves first-year head coach Tony Maggio.

Falcon junior quarterback Nick French injured his left hand and missed most of the previous game. Sophomore Parker Collins took over as the offensive leader. “For the most part Parker did a good job for us,” said Falcon head coach Mark Hodson. “The last time he
briefly Distance runners wrap meets, prep for postseason South Whidbey’s cross country teams ended the regular season last week with middle-of-the-pack places. At the Bellevue Christian School 4K Invite, South Whidbey’s boys finished eighth overall and the girls were sixth. The 4,000-meter course — the only race at that distance South Whidbey competed in this season — was added as a makeup meet for the scrapped North County Invitational. The Falcons, however, were without some of their top racers, including senior girls Bonnie Klamm and Lillianna Stelling and sophomore boy Cole Zink. In the final tuneup before the Cascade Conference Championship, South Whidbey’s runners hit the course hard. The girls were paced by senior Nora Felt in 13th place (17:31.63). Freshman Mallorie Mitchem was close behind in 15th place (17:39.59). Emma Lungren, a sophomore, was the third Falcon girl to finish (18:11.85). A pair of freshmen girls seized the opportunity to run for the varsity team in the absence of Klamm and Stelling. Anna Justus had one of her best races,
started (at quarterback) was a JV game.” An early fumble on the Wolves’ 27-yard line cost the Falcons. Coupeville (1-1 Cascade Conference; 2-5 overall) limited South Whidbey to seven offensive plays in the first quarter. The Wolves, however, were able
finishing in 19:31.30. Carson Orr also scored for the Falcons as the fifth finisher (19:36.61). Anna Hood, a senior, finished in 19:54.98. Senior Lisa Haufler rounded out the Falcon placings in 22:41.92. On the boys team, some of the underclassmen came up in big ways. In only his fourth varsity meet, freshman Chris Anderson continued his improvement as the first Falcon finisher in 14:45.88 for 20th place. Gavin Imes, a junior, was the second Falcon to cross the finish line in 15:04.66. Senior Jhamil Bader-Jarvis finished in 15:17.35. Three underclassmen rounded out South Whidbey’s boys team score. Andy Zisette, a sophomore, finished in 15:25.46, Evan Mellish, a freshman, finished in 16:01.51. Sophomore Truman Hood finished in 16:22.63. South Whidbey hosts the Cascade Conference Championship meet at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 20 at the high school track. The course begins on the auxiliary field, winds behind the baseball field, loops around the track and through South Whidbey Community Park, before finishing back at the track. The Falcons’ performance at the conference championship has no bearing on their seedings to the Westside Classic, a multi-district cross country meet for 1A schools. The Westside Classic, held Saturday, Oct. 27 at the American Lake Golf Course, will be the state 1A meet qualifier.
to extend their drives with a cadre of backs, including Jake Tumblin, Brett Arnold and Bryce Fleming. “They were physical, they took advantage of stuff we were doing wrong,” Hodson said. South Whidbey (1-4; 2-5 overall) started the second quarter with an apparent game-changing play. With Coupeville on the Falcons’ 12-yard line and facing fourthand-long, Wolf quarterback Josh Bayne threw a deep ball to the middle of the field into the waiting arms of French. But South Whidbey’s offense was unable to get a first down. The Wolves turned
their next drive into points on an 11-yard run by Tumblin. The two-point attempt was stopped short, leaving the Wolves with a 6-0 lead with less than four minutes left in the first half. The Falcons found some flow on offense on their ensuing drive. Cooper Nichols, a Falcon junior, returned the kickoff 25 yards to his team’s 40-yard line. Collins completed a pass to Cameron Coupe to get across midfield, but the Falcons couldn’t convert after that and turned the ball over on downs after a fourthand-eight run play. “We really keyed on their fullback,” Maggio said of Curfman. “We committed to stopping the dive first.” Coupeville closed out the first half with a touchdown by offensive lineman Nick Streubel. Bayne fumbled in the end zone on an inside run, but Streubel dove on the ball for the 12-0 lead. The Wolves were short on a twopoint rushing attempt. South Whidbey’s offense was stopped on its opening drive in the third quarter. The Falcons were short on a fourth-and-long play, giving the Wolves possession at their 30-yard line. Tumblin rumbled downfield for a 55-yard run before he was tackled by Coupe at the Falcons’ 10-yard line. Bayne threw to Fleming for the 18-0 lead. In the final seconds of the quarter, South Whidbey scored. Bayne had a short punt returned to the Wolves’ 19-yard line by French.
From there, Falcon backs Pat Monell, Curfman and Nichols took over. Nichols punched in the score and Coupe kicked in the extra point to trail 18-7. A mix of passes and runs helped South Whidbey in the final quarter. Nichols broke off a 35-yard catch and run, scampering down the Falcon sideline. He looked to be out of bounds when the ball came out of his hands and rolled into the end zone, where Coupeville players pounced on it. The play was ruled a fumble, negating a first-andgoal for the Falcons. South Whidbey’s defense stiffened on the next play, getting a pair of tackles for loss and forcing a punt. But on the first snap from the Wolves’ 35, Collins’ pass was intercepted by Wolves sophomore linebacker Korbin Korzan. The Wolves chewed up nearly four minutes of possession before punting again. The Falcons scored again with six seconds remaining on a pass from Collins to Coupe, but the two-point conversion failed. Coupe attempted an onside kick, but the Wolves fell on the ball and were able to take a knee and take home The Bucket. “It’s a bummer. They came to play, they were excited to play,” Coupe said. “We didn’t come in as ready to go as they were, and it showed.” South Whidbey hosts Sultan (2-3; 2-5 overall) for the Falcons’ homecoming game Friday, Oct. 18.

volunteers; they are just fantastic,” Matheny said. Saul, a nine-year soup kitchen veteran, said his service comes down to a few simple things. First and foremost, he’s a man born for the kitchen. “I love to cook,” Saul said. But cooking for pleasure isn’t the only reason he volunteers. The pot has been made all the sweeter by the people he’s met along the way. It’s those relationships that keep him coming back again and again. South Whidbey residents, the business community and non-profit groups also deserve credit. People bring in produce from their gardens, Payless Food Store and the Clinton Food Mart donate food, and Good Cheer food bank pretty much gives the Soup Kitchen whatever it needs. “Everybody in the community contributes,” Giberson said. “It’s amazing.”
“In years past, if the interest rate is up to 6 or 7 percent, you’re paying triple.” The citizen opposition group has argued for the benefits of a stable budget. Using credit and loans to pay for facilities, which last 60 or 70 years, makes more sense to Enell and company. “They cruise along, accrue a bunch of money then buy a building,” Enell said. “Had they done that (use credit), they would probably have a lot more cash in the bank right now and probably wouldn’t have to go out for a levy increase.” Commissioners argued that building two stations and renovating two in the past decade was necessary. As the volunteer firefighter-based district’s buildings aged, they needed to be replaced. Recently, asbestos was discovered in two stations, which must be removed. “I look at the big picture and long term,” Simmons said, citing the construction of the Langley station in 2008. “The city of Langley, they were charging us rent and upping the rent. Also, it was nowhere near big enough for what we needed.” When the Langley station was built on Camano Avenue, the fire district spent $2.45 million on capital expenses. Its operations expenses totaled $1.76 million. Enell argued that high revenue does not

But the only operational expenses of any importance are the asbestos removal and some equipment they need to buy.” Revenue for South Whidbey Fire/EMS has increased from $616,000 in 1990 to $2.25 million this year.

Whidbey General Hospital has a competing emergency medical service on the South End. “What’s real disturbing about that is here’s a situation where we have dual EMS service,” Enell said. “As it is right now, it’s a totally unsophisticated and uncoordinated dispatch system.” Enell and the group have called for South Whidbey voters to reject the levy lift. Citizens Against Palatial Stations also proposed the fire district seek a modified levy request with a six-year sunset clause that would allow voters to consider if the district needs the money and had used it wisely. “I’m perfectly happy with the service and the dedication from the fire district,” Enell said. “I would be the first one to continue to fund them at this service.” The levy lift, if approved, would increase the tax rate to 76 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value. A property valued at $300,000 would pay $228 annually. The levy measure is on the November ballot.

Whidbey Pies It was my childhood ambition to grow up to be a trapeze artist. Life, however, had other plans and I have been a professional pie maker since 1986. Instead of thrilling audiences with flights of fancy, I have been thrilled to make people happy. Pie does that. I opened the Whidbey Pies Café in March of 2001. Before there was a kitchen I schlepped soup and pies down the hill from my cottage commercial kitchen in the back of a Toyota pickup. Whidbey Pies Café now employs approximately 20-25 people. The pie and café crews are true professionals taking great pride in offering the best pie in the Northwest and deliciously prepared Greenbank Farm produce in the café and for catered events. Being a trapeze artist and a pie maker are not so different. Both require a certain degree of foolhardiness and a great back up crew holding the net.

“Comforts of Whidbey” winery is situated on a high bluff overlooking Saratoga Passage and the Cascade mountains, offering a unique setting for the Islands largest vineyard. The winery offers its estate wines, harvested as a community effort; as well as its Samaritan Series wines, allowing the winery to contribute substantially to local non-profit charities and food banks.
This past summer, for the first time, the winery offered its unique setting and combination of vineyard, farm and beautiful gardens as a backdrop for weddings. Couples found the winery to be a picture perfect place to start their lives together. Whether looking for fine wines, rural tranquility or thinking about a wedding or event, the Comfort of Whidbey winery would certainly be worth a visit.
Spoiled Dog Winery Karen Krug has long had a strong passion for fine wines, especially reds. The opportunity to build a vineyard and winery came in 2003 when Karen and her husband, Jack, gave up their work internationally overseas in order to care for Jack’s father. Extensive research and exploration led the Krug’s to Whidbey Island, ideal for growing Pinot Noir grapes.
The women at Spoiled Dog Winery are shown above: Michella Mattens, Karen Krug (owner), Donna Rice and Samantha (Sami).
Soils were prepped, grapes planted, and Spoiled Dog Winery created. Within a few years Spoiled Dog 2009 Estate Pinot Noir won Double Gold at the Seattle Wine Awards – top in the state. “Extraordinary Pinot Noir from the heart of Puget Sound”!
Rita works as vineyard manager as well as any other job that needs to be done on the farm, helping make Comforts of Whidbey winery a successful family business here on Whidbey Island.
Spoiled Dog Winery offers a variety of its award-winning red and white wines in the tasting room/winery located next to the vineyard. Guests can enjoy wine “from vine to bottle” and be enthusiastically greeted by Blue and Sami, the Australian Shepherd dogs who inspired the name “Spoiled Dog.”

Whidbey General’s CAT scan offers best in medical diagnostics BY ELISABETH MURRAY Staff Writer Take a deep breath, and pull as much air into your lungs as you can possibly hold. Now keep on holding. And holding. And holding. Don’t breathe out yet: 30 to 40 seconds have not elapsed. Now imagine this: You have been in a terrifying car crash. You are dizzy, disoriented and everything hurts. And doctors are asking you to hold your breath for almost a minute so that you stay completely still. They need to create an image of your body and determine the extent of your injuries using a CAT scan in order to determine how best to proceed with your treatment. For Whidbey General Hospital trauma patients, this scenario describes the current diagnostic imaging experience involving Computer Axial Tomography. But come December with the introduction of a brandnew, state of the art CAT scan, patient comfort and care gets a boost, something that the hospital’s Chief Radiologist Dr. Robert Hawkins and Diagnostic Imaging Manager Randy White couldn’t be happier about. “We are thrilled,” White said. “This is excellent for the community.” The CAT scan made by Toshiba comes with a hefty price tag of $1.3 million, but that is its only drawback, White said. While there are models on the market that are slightly cheaper, White said, after extensive research it was determined that there are none as good. For starters, the scan takes only 5-seconds to complete, a huge improvement for anyone subject

in exposure to radiation, a decrease of about 75 percent. This is a huge deal for cancer patients, since they will frequently require multiple scans throughout their life-
time and exposure to radiation has been linked to causing this dreaded disease. The processing time once the scan has been completed has also been reduced — letting doctors decide on the next steps in the patients treatment faster. “Technology is always advancing,” Hawkins said. “Whidbey General will be at the cutting edge in providing diagnostic imaging.” And this machine will allow the hospital to stay in that desirable position for as long as possible. The system allows for onsite upgrades rather than having to replace the entire machine.

PLAN AHEAD! Once the decision has been made to buy a new home, the first step is setting a goal. What style of home is preferred? How soon will the purchase be made? How old should the home be? How large is the right size? What amenities should the home offer? Get the picture? If a home buyer doesn’t have a clear picture of the right home before beginning the search, it is highly unlikely that a purchase will result. As someone once said, “If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll probably end up somewhere... else.” The wise home buyer will also determine his or her financial limits before beginning a home search. Imagine finding the perfect home, then being informed that you do not qualify to buy it. Visit a mortgage lender first, get a loan commitment, then make your buying decision with confidence that the home you select will be yours.

community Langley Library celebrates 50 years with Sno-Isle BY REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter
I
n its evolution from a one-room facility to the community center it is today, the Langley Library has a lot to celebrate in its first 50 years with SnoIsle Libraries. But staff do ask for a little something from the community to help celebrate. “After 50 years with Sno-Isle, we’re thrilled to be here,” said Vicky Welfare, branch manager. The community is welcome to join the free open house celebration at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 25. Share library memories and hopes or visions for the library’s future, enjoy refreshments and music and be entered to win gift certificates from local businesses. Also bring an item for the time capsule to the library before or during the celebration. The time capsule will be opened in 10 years. “It’s a snapshot of life in 2012,” Welfare said. Local businesses are asked to bring an item representing their work, like a daily specials sheet from a restaurant or a sales flyer or brochure. Individuals can write down library memories for the time capsule or bring memorabilia. So far, the time capsule’s picture of life on South Whidbey has captured Langley Middle School
through yearbooks and Record graduate issues, local art with a glass bauble from Callahan’s Firehouse Gallery and Whidbey Island Center for the Arts and Whidbey Children’s Theater programs and photos, Audubon print cards from Lowry James
Gallery, menus from restaurants, a price sheet from the Star Store, Island Transit bus schedules and a voters pamphlet. A highlight is the photobook staff have been putting together. They took photos of buildings and people around town to include in the time capsule. It will be fun to see how people, especially children, have changed in 10 years, Welfare said. “We encourage people to come on down. There’s still time,” Welfare said.
History and future The Langley Library has been in the same building for 90 years, with a couple of renovations. The land for the library was originally donated by Mayor Helen
Coe, Langley’s first mayor, and the structure was built in 1922 under the direction of the town’s Ladies Civic Improvement Club, according to Welfare. The one-room facility, dedicated in 1923, was also used for weddings, classes and as a recreation hall. It was expanded in 1980 and again in 1994 until the building looked like it does today. The Langley Library became a branch of SnoIsle Libraries in 1962. The Sno-Isle Libraries is a system of libraries in Snohomish and Island counties. “Back in the early days, it was just for checking out books. Now, we have so much more to offer,” Welfare said. From DVDs to the Internet, the years have transformed the library and opened it to a number of new purposes. Now, the library offers online databases for patrons to do research, an online library catalog and book service between SnoIsle Libraries. “I think that we’re a vital place in this community,” Welfare said. The Langley Library has become a hangout for children, a place for friends to meet up and a place for the community to learn through programs and resources. “In addition to providing entertainment and education to the community, this is the

Additional time capsule items are needed and can be dropped off at the library. go-to place,” Welfare said. The staff is an integral part of the community, too. “People stop our staff in the streets and ask them reference questions or give them library books to return so I think we have a positive relationship with the community,” Welfare said. She started her career with Sno-Isle 28 years ago as a page at the Edmonds Library. In 1998, she became branch manager at the Langley Library. While continuing their legacy of community service and involvement is a given in the future, Welfare said she wants to hear from the community about what they think the library will be like in 10 years. “Who knows, maybe we won’t have any books anymore,” Welfare laughed. “I hope not. I think they’re still a viable source even with downloading. It’s interesting to see how technology moves on.” To include an item in the time capsule, drop it off at the Langley Library or send your item to: Langley Library 50th Anniversary Committee, PO Box 365, Langley, WA 98260. For more information, call 221-4383.

To bean or not to bean, that is the chili question WHIDBEY RECIPES
Margaret Walton
“To bean, or not to bean — that is the question: Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous chili purists, or to take arms against a sea of troubles, throw in the beans, and by opposing end them.” --Shakespeare, “Hamlet’ Yes, I know Shakespeare is spinning in his grave, and I’ve been playing fast and loose with that quotation, but it was just too much fun to pass up after I read about the momentous decision made recently by The International Chili Society. Never mind all the Romney/Obama, Inslee/ McKenna, Biden/Ryan debates; let’s talk about a truly important debate that’s been going on for decades, if not centuries. The subject of that debate? Chili. That’s right, chili, or to be more accurate, whether or not chili should contain beans. Chili purists insist, and have since chili’s creation, that true, authentic chili never contains beans, which they consider nothing but “filler,” and up until about a month ago, the International
Chili Society so decreed. Each year, when the world championship chili contest was held to see whose chili reigned supreme, any chili containing beans, any kind of beans, was automatically eliminated. Until this year. This past month, members of The International Chili Society (who are these people, anyway?) agreed to add a “bean-optional” category when it held the 46th world championships in Charleston, W. VA. on Oct. 5, 6 and 7. It’s a huge event among chili-heads and thousands of entries make it a very difficult judging situation. And the winner this year? Bob Plager, who took home $25,000 for his superlative (said the judges) pot of red chili. Not a bad return on a pot of chili, right? I’ve not yet been able to view his winning recipe, so can’t tell you whether or not it contained beans of any sort. However, I suspect not. Personally, I like my chili with beans, preferably dark red kidney beans and/or black beans, but one of the best chili recipes I ever had, and I have far too many, was for a Texas style chili, no beans. I’ve mislaid the recipe, but it will turn up, I’m sure. In most of the southwest, however, including Texas, adding beans to a pot of beef chunks in a sauce made from chiles and spices is sacrilegious.
And, during all of our travels in Mexico, where chili is a staple and beans are a part of virtually every meal, never did we find the two together, never a bean in a bowl of chili. So, chili lovers, it’s obviously a personal choice, to bean or not to bean, but isn’t it comforting to know, finally, that the great bean debate is over and that The International Chili Society has decreed that it’s acceptable to bean? (Insert a sigh of relief here, please.)
RECIPES This first recipe is for our no-beans-in-my-chili purists, from Tom Tyler of Mesquite, Texas, who in years past has competed (and often won) in chili contests across the country, including The World Championship Chili Cookoff. This is a north Texas recipe, a favorite of a few members of my family who also believe chili should have no beans. According to Mr. Tyler, “the secret to great chili is good meat and good spices, and no beans allowed.”
TYLER’S TEXAS RED CHILI 2½ lbs. boneless chuck roast, diced 1 T. vegetable oil 4 cups water ½ cup diced onion 2 t. garlic powder (I use
fresh, minced garlic; several cloves), divided (see instructions) 1 t. salt, or to taste ½ to ¾ t. red pepper (depending on your desired heat level), divided (see instructions) 4 whole jalapeno peppers 4-6 T. fresh chili powder, divided (see instructions) 4 t. ground cumin, divided (see instructions) ¼ t. ground oregano (or ½ t. fresh minced) 1 bay leaf 2 beef bouillon cubes (or 1 T. beef flavor base, my preference) 1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce Brown the chuck chunks in hot vegetable oil in a Dutch oven. Add water, onion, 1 t. garlic powder, salt, ½ t. of the red pepper and the jalapeno peppers. Bring to a boil and simmer, uncovered, for 1 hr. Add water as needed to keep liquid ½-inch above the meat throughout cooking. Remove jalapeno peppers; strain liquid from the peppers, pressing on them to extract juice and discard the peppers. Add jalapeno liquid to the pot, along with 2-3 T. chili powder, 2 t. of cumin, oregano, bay leaf and bouillon cubes. Stir well and simmer, uncovered for 1 hr. and 30 min. Removebayleaf;addremaining chili powder, red pepper, cumin and tomato sauce. Stir
well and simmer 15 to 30 min. Adjust seasonings to desired heat level; serve. Serves 4-6 depending on serving size. Note: I add about 1 T. brown sugar or honey and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the final simmer; I think it brings out the flavor even more. This is excellent with corn bread. Ah, but what’s a poor vegetarian to do? Live life without chili? Never mind what the purists say, there are
alternatives. You can, of course, make a pot of chili with all the sauce as in the above recipe, but using only beans, three or even four kinds. This would be called, by they who do not acknowledge beans in chili, a “bean side dish.” However, you could also consider using lentils, which I happen to like very much and which are very good for you. Try this lentil chili and, trust me, you won’t miss the meat. See recipes, A21

John L. Fournier, Jr. entered into rest on October 1, 2012, probably for the first time in his life. The esteemed publisher of The Prosser RecordBulletin and Grandview Herald as well as former publisher of many weekly and three daily newspapers including the North Central Washington and Central Oregon Nickel Ads, the Valley Daily News in Kent, passed away in hospice near his home of Freeland, Whidbey Island, WA after a five month battle with cancer. He was 75. He will be remembered by his wife Chris, children, Suzette Nordstrom (Bill) of Spokane, Wash., John L. III (Lucinda) of Bend, Oreg., Danielle of Freeland, Wash. and Matthew of Sacramento, Calif., as man of vision, humor and fortitude. He was as committed to his communities as he was to his family. He is survived by his stepmother Jean Morgan (Jimmy) of Swainsboro, Ga., sister Gail Dallas of Redmond, Wash. and brother Charles (Gay) of Saint Simon’s Island, Ga. He is survived by eight nieces and nephews. Fournier was a loving father who taught his children to revere the outdoors, respect other people’s opinions, and foster good will wherever they went. He infused every situation with his sense of humor and ability to tell a great story- anytime, anywhere. Fournier remarried the love of his life, Christine, in 2005 after which they devoted their time of the semiretired life of reveling in their grandchildren, Angela, Emily, TJ and Chas while catching up on their years spent apart. The two had remained friends throughout the years as they raised their children and kept partnerships in several national champion snaffle bit horses. As publisher, Fournier was proud to serve his birthplace of Kent by bringing Medic One to Valley General Hospital, as a member of Kiwanis, the city council and its committees, and the Chamber of Commerce. On the state level, he had
John L Fournier Jr a lifelong commitment to the Washington State Newspaper Association, as a trustee, past president and active member from whom he received the Miles Turnbull Master Editor/ Publisher lifetime achievement award. He was also a member of the National Newspaper and Suburban Newspaper Associations of America. He developed his love of hot air ballooning when he became a yearly sponsor of the Prosser Hot Air Balloon Rally upon purchasing the paper there in 1986. He dedicated over fifty years of his life to the newspaper business. Born March 23, 1937 in Kent Wash., he felt a lifelong attachment to his birthplace. His early life as a Boy Scout, a Kent Meridian High School varsity football player, and a member of the United States Marine Corps influenced Fournier’s lifelong interest in the outdoors, sports and civic responsibilities. He loved to fish, possessed a mean roll cast, and spent his life on or near the water. He shared fond memories of pheasant and duck hunting in the Green River Valley and across the plains of the Palouse often. While attending University of Washington as a Sigma Phi Epsilon brother, he enjoyed his summers as a lifeguard on Lake Washington. Until his death, he would look up to identify any aircraft by wing shape and sound, recounting his many miles across the sky. A Celebration of Life is planned for Nov. 9, 2012 at Useless Bay Golf and Country Club to remember and honor John’s life. There was also a private ceremony on Friday October 12th for family and close friends. He will be missed.

Community-driven Whidbey Island Center for the Arts expands, finds new life thanks to years of community support BY REBECCA OLSON Staff reporter Built by the community for the community, Whidbey Island Center for the Arts in Langley celebrated the end of Stage Two. And it was only possible after raising more than $2.1 million to expand and renovate the building. WICA opened its doors in May 1996 after a 10-year grassroots effort to build a community performing arts center on South Whidbey. The original effort involved raising more than $1 million to construct the 246-seat theater that hosts year-round
music, theater, dance and film events as well as educational camps and conferences. About 10 years ago, WICA began offering five productions per season. As the community asked for a wider variety of events, “it soon became apparent that the facility simply could not support the increased activities. All five employees plus numerous volunteers were sharing a tiny space, and sets were being built off site or out in the parking lot. There was no storage for costumes or props, and actors dressed in tents out back,” said Kris
McRea, capital campaign manager for WICA. The Stage Two campaign was launched in the fall of 2007. More than 280 individuals, 20 businesses and eight foundations contributed to the campaign, plus volunteers and board members who donated time, McRea said. “Thanks to many supportive and passionate South Whidbey individuals and organizations, incredible volunteers and the many local contractors, WICA has built new dressing rooms, the Puget Sound Energy Green Room for perform-

The actors, set builders, directors, staff and other volunteers all greatly benefit from the added space,” McRea said. Paul and Pam Schell, WICA board members, have been involved at WICA since its birth. Paul, former mayor of Seattle, and Pam, co-chair of the Stage Two campaign, have long been involved in the arts and settled on South Whidbey because of its strong connection to the arts. “It’s really a big part of what makes South Whidbey work,” Schell said of the arts. That didn’t make raising
$2.1 million easy, though. The group started raising money right before the recession hit. The fact that they were able to raise so much money during the recession says a lot about the community, Paul said. “Art is what really brings our community together and feeds our soul,” he added. “Too often, the arts get treated as a nice thing if you can afford it.”
Good cheer is committed to creating a hunger-free community in South Whidbey. Serving The SouTh Whidbey CommuniTy for 50 yearS!!

Instead, the arts enrich the lives of the people in the community, Schell said, and they should be treated accordingly. Pam encouraged people to visit WICA and experience what it does for the South End. “It’s really a tremendous asset we have in the community,” Pam Schell said. “I don’t think people really understand what a wonderful treasure we have here,” Paul added. “I don’t think people really appreciate that we can live in a place with such incredible talent.” The Schells have attended plays all over the world. “What’s going on here is truly incredible,” Paul said. As owners of the Inn at Langley and the Boatyard Inn, they direct visitors to WICA. “They come with low expectations and leave with ‘Wow.’ That’s always fun for us to hear,” Paul said. WICA continues to accept donations to Stage Two toward finishing funds for lighting and sound, as well as supporting the minimal debt incurred. Tickets are available for “Becky’s New Car” and other shows at WICA at www.wicaonline.com or by calling the ticket office at 221-8268. Rebecca Olson can be reached at 221-5300.

2 strips bacon, diced (optional) 2 cups diced onion 1 green bell pepper, seeded and diced 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced (use more if you want it hotter) 1 T. minced garlic ¼ cup tomato paste 1 T. each chili powder (if you can find ancho chile powder, use it), cumin and dried oregano 1 t. ground coriander 1 t. celery seed 1 can (28 oz.) diced tomatoes in juice 3 cups V-8 or tomato juice 3 cups hot water 2 cups dry brown lentils, rinsed 1 T. chopped semisweet chocolate (or use chips) (see note below) Juice of 1 lime Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Sour cream and/or avocado, for garnish
Cook bacon in a large pot over med.-high heat until crisp. Transfer to a paper towel; set aside. Sweat onion, bell pepper, jalapeno and garlic in the bacon drippings (or use 2 T. olive oil if not using the bacon) until onion begins to soften, about 5 min. Stir in tomato paste, chili powder, cumin, oregano, coriander and celery seed; cook until paste begins to darken, about 1 min., stirring constantly. Add tomatoes, V-8, water and lentils. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to med.-low and simmer, partially covered, until the lentils are tender, about 40 min. Stir in the chocolate until it melts, 2-3 min. Add lime juice and bacon (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish each serving with a small dollop of sour cream and diced avocado. Makes about 10 cups. Note: You probably already know, but if not, chocolate should be no surprise. Chocolate and chilies are often combined and chocolate is frequently a “secret” ingredient in prize chili recipes.
And finally, a recipe for oldfashioned, everybody recognizes it, chili with beans, but this one is super easy because you just throw it all into your good old crockpot before you take off for work and it’s ready for dinner when you are.
CHILI CON CARNE 1 lb. lean ground beef 1 cup chopped onion 2-3 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed a bit 4 t. chili powder (more if you prefer) 1½ t. salt, or to taste ¼ t. ground pepper ½ t. dried oregano 1 t. ground cumin 1 can (16 oz.) diced tomatoes 1 can (8 oz.) tomato sauce 1 can (15 oz.) red kidney beans, well drained 1. Brown the meat in a hot skillet. Drain off fat and put in crockpot with all remaining ingredients. Cover and cook on low 8 to 10 hrs. Serve over rice or polenta, or just in bowls sprinkled with shredded cheese or garnished with a dollop of sour cream and diced avocado.
DINING & ENTERTAINMENT GUIDE
THE CLYDE SLEEPWALK WITH ME Stand-up comic Mike Biribiglia first talked about his sleep problems on NPR’s This American Life. Now in this movie version, he’s fictionalized it a little and added his workplace and relationship issues to the mix. And boy, does he have issues! Unrated but about a PG-13.
ARBITRAGE There’s Oscar buzz for Richard Gere’s smooth and silky performance in the role of a lifetime as a hedge-fund manager with guilty secrets. Susan Sarandon as his betrayed wife, Brit Marling as his equally betrayed daughter, and Tim Roth as a dogged detective round out a great cast. Rated R.

Orca Network plans trip south for gray whales BY JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter

Whidbey Island residents Barbara Arnoldson, Linda LaMay and Jan Shaughnessy, front, touch gray whales in 2010 in San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja, Mexico. Orca Network is planning a trip, the group’s major fundraiser, in 2013.
Whidbey Island whale lovers may have a chance to travel with local experts to San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja, Mexico, next spring to witness what many have come to consider a gray whale phenomenon. One of the known loca-
tions where the species gives birth, the lagoon is bustling with activity during early spring. But what makes the area famous is the unusually friendly behavior exhibited by a small percentage of the gentle giants. When gray whales come to Puget Sound to feed at other times of the year, they tend to be focused and standoffish, said Susan Berta, a founding

member of Greenbank-based Orca Network. Yet, in the lagoon, a small percentage of the marine giants also exhibit unusually friendly behavior, approaching research and tour boats and even letting people inside touch them. “It’s anyone’s guess why they do this,” said Susan Berta, a founding member of Orca Network. “It makes me feel that they are reaching out to us.” For many it’s a changing experience. Lyla Snover, a Coupeville resident, went on the trip with her husband Phil in 2010 and called it “moving.” “I’ve always thought gray whales are wonderful, wonderful creatures,” she said. “But being able to kiss one on the nose is really awesome.” Up until last year, the excursion has been an annual fundraiser for the Whidbey marine mammal advocacy group. By partnering with Baja Ecotours at Campo Cortez, Orca Network receives $500 from each ticket when it brings 18 people. The money provides funding for the group’s sighting network and other educational programs. The trip planned for this year, however, was
scrubbed due to a lack of participants. Berta said they have five confirmed attendees so far, but need the full 18 in order to green light the trip. Along with whale watching, Campo Cortez naturalists and boat crews share their knowledge of the Baja Biosphere Reserve. Participants also learn about intertidal and plant life of the area. Cost of the trip, which begins in San Diego, Calif., is $2,700 per person. It includes a Mexico Tourist card and Biosphere Reserve fees, as well as transportation from San Diego to Campo Cortez, Baja, meals, lodging and whale watching twice daily. The deadline to sign up is Jan. 1. “In these economic times, fundraisers such as this provide much-needed income for Orca Network to continue to provide our programs and services to help collect data on the endangered Southern Resident orcas, gray whales and other marine mammal species in the Pacific Northwest,” Berta said.
