Coupeville High School senior Kelsey Pape, 18, has attended Coupeville schools since she was in second grade though she lives with her family in Oak Harbor. “My parents thought I’d do better in a smaller school and they were right,” said Pape. Kelsey’s parents are Carolyn and Billy Pape and she has a younger sister Jillian, 13. Her mom works in for the Everett Health District in human resources, and her dad is facilities manager at Hedgebrook writers’ retreat in Langley. “I’m so lucky to have had such a close family,” said Pape. “Family time is really important to us. My parents have given me so much.” Pape has been accepted at three Washington state colleges for next year, Pacific Lutheran University, Seattle University and Western Washington University. Her first choice school is the University of Washington, which she has applied for but hadn’t heard from at press time. She hopes to pursue a degree in business with a focus on human resources. Her mom’s work in HR has been a good influence on her. “I like working with peo-

ple and I think there’ll be a lot of opportunities for me in human resources,” said Pape. At Coupeville High School, Pape has been a member of the National Honor Society and the yearbook staff as well as taking Advanced Placement classes and working as a teacher’s assistant in a middle school art class. “Ms. Dix has 28 seventh graders in her art class and she appreciates the help I give her,” said Pape. Pape also volunteers as a big sister for a 13-year-old girl through Big Brothers, Big Sisters in Coupeville. She’s mentored one girl for the last two years, giving her help with homework and playing games or sports with her once a week. Pape has also been a member of the CHS girls’ soccer team in her junior and senior years. Another community service opportunity she enjoys is Teen Ambassadors, a leadership program through 4-H. Teen Ambassadors took her to Olympia earlier this year for the “Know Your Government” conference where she participated in a mock trial as a juror. “It was cool to see how the whole judicial process works,” she said of that experience. She’s had several inspiring teachers at CHS. “I’ve always developed close relationships with my teachers,” said Pape. “Ms. Ballard knew I was good at writing so she started setting the bar higher

The Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association is looking at making the town a mobile hotspot. The association formed a committee last week to explore options and costs in providing visitors with a public wireless Internet connection. The idea is an antenna would be installed near the visitor’s center on Alexander Street that would broadcast a signal. Some of the benefits to the service would be to allow vendors during festivals access to run credit cards, business interaction with visitors as well as assist in social network marketing. During the association’s regular meeting last Thursday, some business owners pointed out there may be some liability in how the connection is used if it’s open to everyone. The committee will explore the use of administrative options to block access to specific kinds of websites as well as possibly creating specific types of logins to restrict
usage. The estimated cost of such a project would be anywhere from $70 to $370 a month in usage costs, depending on the size of desired bandwidth. Installation and hardware is estimated to cost between $500 and $2,000. Some of that cost will be covered by a grant, said association Executive Director Vickie Chambers. One thing the committee will explore is possibly creating the multiple access logins to allow some of the smaller local businesses to utilize the service. Some ideas thrown out include charging a monthly fee charge for local businesses. The association is reaching out to the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce to see if it would like to be involved. Executive Director Lynda Eccles said the project is something the chamber would be interested in participating in. Estimated time to get a mobile hotspot up and running would be 60-90 days. Chambers said she would love to be up and running by this summer.

Where’s the outrage over county business questionnaire Editor, How can it be that over three weeks ago commercial property owner were mailed notice requesting income and expense information for the last two years, and no one has complained or asked questions? Aren’t commercial property owners already paying excise tax, income tax, real property tax and property tax? Why is it Island County Assessor’s business what the annual gross income is? Is it any concern to the assessor’s office what the annual operation expenses before real estate taxes, except to raise property taxes? Why should they see leases? Apparently if a business makes too much money, their property should cost more. No one is asking if anyone made a profit. Does any government agency understand net income? This is a new ‘required’ questionnaire requesting sensitive information, although confidentiality is assured. Who feels comfortable sharing information without a clear understanding of the goal? Washington state already has a tax based on gross income, when everyone knows net profit is the reality of each business. Is property tax also to be influenced by gross income? This all smacks of double, triple taxation.

Military economics makes for good political debate Editor, I have a vacation house near the Outlying Field in Coupeville. I understand the noise issues. The Navy does have a proposed alternative for the Whidbey Island Naval Air Station OLF: Guam. In fact, the Navy wants to relocate the entire Station to Guam. Comparing the Naval Air Station to the Norfolk Naval Base is not accurate: Norfolk is the largest naval complex in the world, and serves as the command for the Atlantic. There is nothing farther east. Norfolk’s location in the Atlantic is the equivalent to Guam for the Pacific command. I am sure state Rep. Rick Larsen understands that there is no strategic purpose for a Naval air station on Whidbey Island. Like forts Worden and Ebey, the Navy thinks the air station should be closer to the threat, where there are no neighbors. By definition, having U.S. civilian neighbors makes no sense for a forward air station. But the economics of a military base makes good economics and politics, which I am sure the navy understands as well.

It’s worth getting to know your trees toni grove sowin ’n’ the trowel Say what you will about the intrusion of technology into our everyday lives, there are times when it’s pretty darned handy to have billions of electrons at your fingertips. You can browse the stacks of the Sno-Isle library system from the comfort of your own chair. In your PJ’s. At midnight. That’s how I discovered my latest BBE, or Best Book
Ever. “Seeing Trees, Discover the Extraordinary Secrets of Everyday Trees” by Nancy Ross Hugo from Timber Press invites you to become intimately acquainted with all of the trees you see every day and may be ignoring. The exquisitely detailed photographs by Robert Llewellyn make this book as much about the art of the creation that surrounds us as a guide to tree identification The author asks us to sit a spell with our trees and look beyond the obvious. We notice the red berries, but do we notice the small white flowers that naturally must always first appear on female holly trees? We know
what an acorn looks like. Or do we? From fringed to gigantic, we may never taken them for granted again. And the litter found beneath a tree can be just as fascinating as the tree itself. The seldom seen cotyledons of some species can be observed, as well as the many forms that seeds/ fruits take. Even the carpet of leaves spread out in fall may become so beautiful it will seem a shame to rake it all away. Hugo gives a tutorial on how to observe leaves, flowers and cones, fruit, buds and leaf scars, bark and twigs in a new way. For example, leaf scars, in their shapes and the arrangement of their bundle scars — the
dots that mark where the leaf’s vascular tissue was attached -- can be as indicative of a tree’s identity as its flowers or fruit. Hugo goes on to focus on 10 trees that are common in her region of Virginia, including American beech, American sycamore, black walnut, eastern red cedar, ginkgo, red maple, southern magnolia, tulip poplar, white oak and white pine. Then she hones in on each of its features with a sense of wonder and admiration you want to stand at her shoulder and see it all through her eyes. It made me recall my first glimpse of a tulip poplar while traveling through Montana. I was lucky
Divorce
enough to catch it in flower, its blossoms so much like tree-borne water lilies. The leaves, though, drove me crazy. How often have you sampled a leaf from some unknown tree and then gone on an on-line quest to discover its identity using its shape, size and color? It was impossible for me to describe. Now I can use Nancy Ross Hugo’s words: “Tulip poplar leaves are famous for their shape — with four major lobes (pointed sections) and a depression instead of a tip at the end that makes them look saddle-shaped.” Because of this book, I’ll never allow myself to see the forest, yet fail to truly see the trees.

(so you’d think I’d be used to it) I’m always somehow surprised and delighted when we get to this time of year and have early sunrises and spreading daylight in the evenings. The other part of this time of year that gladdens my soul is the singing of birds. Starting as soon as it gets light, the birds go at it, vocalizing for their own purposes but entertaining all of us who listen for a minute before we rush off to work. Recently scientists announced new findings regarding bird songs and what makes them possible in terms of fundamental neurobiology. Songbirds, it turns out, are interesting to study because when they hatch out of their eggs they don’t know the songs they will later sing as adults. That means they
are a bit like us people when we are born. Like the birds, we have to learn to make sounds and speak like our parents, it’s not something we are born able to do. It’s not that birds and people are highly similar in evolutionary terms and thus share this same basic trait of needing to learn how to vocalize like our kin. Indeed it’s been about 300 million years since birds and humans had a common evolutionary ancestor – that’s a long time even by geologic standards! At some point since that long ago split, both the animals that became birds and the primates that later led to us people independently acquired the ability to make complex tones and sounds. Erich Jarvis of Duke University Medical Center
is a neurobiologist who has “gone to the birds” in his quest to understand how it is some animals learn to speak the languages in which different species are immersed. He and his colleagues recently announced findings of their work. One of the take away messages of the research is that brains in quite different species have evolved over time in similar ways to produce highly useful features like songs and speech. “I feel more comfortable that we can link structures in songbird brains to analogous structures in human brains due to convergent evolution,” Jarvis said to a reporter from ScienceNews. Jarvis and company have discovered some 80 genes that turn off and on in like manner in the brains of

songbirds and people. The genes don’t behave that way in the brains of birds that don’t learn tunes from their parents. The research could have some useful applications. It’s possible that combining it with the data that describes the entire genetic code of people could yield practical information about things like speech disorders.

Woman backs man’s Whidbey UFO claims By Justin Burnett Staff Reporter
A Marysville woman stepped forward, claiming that she too witnessed strange lights in the sky last weekend. Katie Kinman, 59, contacted the Whidbey News-Times after reading a story published Wednesday about Dick and Carol Johnson’s account of unexplainable lights over their Bush Point home last Saturday. According to Kinman, she also witnessed strange lighted objects that evening but these were in Marysville at 10:30 p.m., about two hours after the reported phenomenon on South Whidbey. “I was pretty happy someone else saw it because I was feeling pretty alone,” Kinman said. Kinman was able to record video footage of the event. Shaky and with hard-to-discern details, the footage shows at least one orange light similar to those described by the Johnsons. Kinman said she was driving with her 6-yearold stepson and had just merged onto Shoultes Road from 142nd Street when she saw two bright objects low in the sky nearby. The distance was hard to gauge, she said, but they were stationary and about
the height of a streetlight. Pulling over, Kinman began recording the object when she felt a “strange sensation.” “As I held my arms up shooting this video, I got a strange feeling something was above me, so I looked up directly above me to my left; that’s why I accidentally filmed the ground,” she said. One of the objects was just above her and the experience turned from one of apprehensive wonder to one of terror because the “long and oval shaped” craft began moving toward them. “My stepson began screaming and pounding on the window for me to get back in the car,” she said. “It scared me so bad I stopped recording and jumped in the car. I shook so bad I could hardly drive. Then it just vanished.” Kinman drove home and immediately called a television news station to report the incident but she said they only laughed at her frantic claims. “They said, ‘We’re going on the air in three minutes and don’t have time for this’ and then they hung up,” she said. Kinman said she realizes “this sounds crazy” and was extremely relieved to have read the Johnsons’ account because it not only occurred on the same night
but there were some similarities. “It had no sound,” she said. Since the Johnsons’ account was published Wednesday, several people have called the newspaper to report experiences of their own. One was Jerry Shimek, a Bush Point resident who lives across the street from the Johnsons. Shimek said he also saw two lights Saturday night, at about the same time. They were low in the sky and traveling east but he believes they were nothing more than what are commonly referred to as “Chinese lanterns.” “They looked to me like hot air balloons released just for fun,” Shimek said. Other Whidbey Island residents who called in offered their support for the Johnsons and asked for their contact information so they could share unexplainable experiences of their own. As for Kinman, she believes she witnessed some type of secret military aircraft, as opposed to something extraterrestrial in nature. All she knows for sure, however, is that they were no hot air balloons. “Like Dick Johnson, I don’t drink, I don’t smoke pot and I’m not crazy,” she said.
County, Pederson part ways peacefully By Justin Burnett Staff Reporter
To ensure that outgoing planning Chief Bob Pederson won’t sue Island County, the commissioners have agreed to pay him more than $21,000 and provide him with a letter of recommendation. In a separation agreement approved by a majority of the board just two days after Pederson submitted a letter of resignation, March 4, Pederson waived any right to bring a future claim against the county. In return, Pederson will receive the equivalent of two months’ salary and benefits, totaling $21,045, and a glowing, page-long letter of recommendation highlighting his accomplishments over the past three and a half years. The agreement was approved by the board at its weekly work session, March 6. According to Elaine Marlow, who serves as budget director, board clerk and as the county’s risk manager, it was brought forward solely at her request. “Given the unique situation concerning Commissioner Kelly Emerson and the planning department, I thought it would be best to

The agreement was approved and later signed by Commissioner Helen Price Johnson, chairwoman of the board at the time, and Commissioner Jill Johnson. Emerson, chairwoman of the board, was present at the meeting but did not participate in the vote. She has been battling it out with Pederson and Island County Planning and Community Development since late 2010 over what began as an un-permitted project at her Camano Island home. The issue mushroomed into a two-year-long saga in-

To date, Emerson owes $37,000 in fines and she has a building permit issue that remains unresolved. The commissioner has maintained that settling the issue has been in the hands of Pederson so it’s unclear what will happen now that he is resigning. According to Marlow, Pederson’s annual salary was about $76,000, not including benefits. His resignation date is effective April 5 but last working day on the job is March 29, according to the separation agreement.

Transit officials worry about connectors loss By Nathan Whalen Staff Reporter
Island Transit officials are worried they may lose funding for a service that has been seeing more and more riders. The Tri-County Connector and Everett Connector provide bus transportation from Whidbey and Camano islands to Mount Vernon and Everett. Martha Rose, executive director for Island Transit, said she is concerned that the money needed to fund the connector services won’t make it into the state budget. Current funding for the program runs out June 30. Island Transit participates in two connector services. The Tri-County Connector connects Oak Harbor to Mount Vernon and then Bellingham. The Everett Connector connects Camano Island with Everett. Ridership on the connector routes have increased since they were implemented. “Tri-County and Everett has become one piece of a nice healthy puzzle,” Rose said of the two connector routes. Island Transit officials have been busy keeping their riders abreast of the situation. They have been sending out rider alerts encouraging people to contact their state representative.
State Rep. Dave Hayes, who is a member of the House Transportation Committee, noted that Rose has been doing a great job keeping Island Transit’s riders abreast of the situation. The Tri-County Connector and the Everett Connector are line items in the state budget. He said he is talking with legislators in districts affected by the routes along with members of the transportation committee to try to preserve the connector routes. He said a draft of the state transportation budget should be available sometime this week. The Tri-County Connector costs approximately $3 million per biennium to operate and the Everett Connector costs approximately $2.1 million per biennium to operate. Both connector services started in 2006 with 55,000 Island Transit riders using the Tri-County Connector and 8,100 riders using the Everett Connector. Since its initial year, ridership on the connectors have steadily increased. In 2012, 147,000 Island Transit riders used the TriConnector and 45,500 riders used the Everett Connector, according to information provided by Island Transit. The connectors provide an alternative to workers who have long commutes.

support the transition of new aircraft to NAS Whidbey Island benefits both the base and the surrounding community,” Nortier said. In early 2011, there was a scare that the Navy was reconsidering its earlier plans to replace Orion squadrons on base with four squadrons of the new Poseidon — 24 planes total — by 2017. Capt. Jay Johnston, the base’s former commanding officer, said in a recent interview that the expense of building new hangars was one of the chief issues. Base officials worked to reduce expenses by developing a new plan that would re-use some of the existing hangars but modify their doors so the larger plans can fit. Lawmakers, such as Larsen, also advocated loudly on behalf of the original plan and it has since become clear that the Navy will stay the course.

ity,” she said. In both cases, the funding program not only enabled property owners to fix up historic structures that had fallen into disrepair, but also, and just as importantly, to put them to use. According to Preiss, that’s a big part of keeping these buildings alive and maintaining the fabric of a working, cultural landscape. It may also be a big reason for the program’s popularity among working farmers, as many now see the fund as a realistic source of assistance. By comparison, similar state programs can be highly competitive. Fourteen property owners submitted applications for this year’s grants, the most the program has seen so far.
The community’s investment has also increased, with more money raised last year than ever before. “This has it’s own energy now,” Preiss said. An anonymous donor issued a $75,000 challenge grant and, like the Pickard’s initial challenge two years ago, it was met by the public. Not all donations are financial and some funds may be retained for another year so it’s difficult to say how much will be allocated in 2013, Preiss said. “I can tell you this, it will be more than we’ve ever granted before,” Preiss said. This years grant recipients will be announced early next month and will be featured in a follow up story in The Whidbey Examiner.

The U.S. Navy informed Congress last week that it will invest $7 million in a new hangar at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station. The hangar is planned to house two P-8A Poseidons, the Boeing 737-based jet sub-hunters that will serve as the replacement aircraft for the aging P-3C Orion. “It’s time to make room, because the P-8As are coming to Whidbey Island,” Congressman Rick Larsen said in a news release. “This substantial investment shows there is no question that the Navy recognizes Whidbey Island as the right place to base the P-8As,” he said. In a statement emailed Friday, base commander Capt. Mike Nortier said the financial investment will be positive for the air station and Whidbey Island. “Funding for capital improvements to

Whew! Wolf baseball team adds 2 more 1-run wins By Jim Waller Staff Reporter
Good thing coach Willie Smith has a strong heart. His Coupeville High School baseball team won three straight one-run thrillers, including over Port Townsend 3-2 Saturday and South Whidbey 7-6 Monday at Robert Sherman Field. Drew Chan’s two-run single in the bottom of the seventh inning produced the tying and winning runs
against Port Townsend. Coupeville, held in check most of the day by Port Townsend starter Cody Russell, picked up a run in the third. Jake Tumblin singled, went to second on a wild pitch, stole third and scored on a balk. The Redskins, who loaded the bases but couldn’t score in the fifth, finally scored in the sixth off four Coupeville errors. The errors were the only ones registered by the Wolves in an otherwise
“clean game,” according to coach Willie Smith. A single, stolen base and single in the seventh put Port Townsend up 2-1. Aaron Trumbull, who was also the winning pitcher, started the Coupeville seventh by ripping a grounder under the glove of the Redskins’ diving second baseman Joe Hoffman. A pair of wild pitches moved Trumbull to third. After a strikeout, Tumblin walked and stole second. That brought up Chan.

Wade Schaef dives safely back to first on a Port Townsend pickoff attempt Saturday.
The senior second baseman, after failing to get down a squeeze bunt, more than made up for the botched bunt by driving a clutch base hit up the middle for the win. Chan wasn’t the only hero. Ben Etzell pitched the first three innings and recorded five strikeouts. Aaron Curtin followed on the mound with two shutout innings. Center fielder Wade Schaef gunned down a runner at the plate in the fourth. Trumbull finished the day with two hits, and Tumblin added three stolen bases and two runs. The Wolves (1-2, 3-2) took advantage of South Whidbey mistakes and used strong defense, two big innings, a clutch pinch hit and a strong relief performance to eke out the win over the Falcons (22, 2-2). South Whidbey scored first, getting one in the opening inning off Coupeville starter Curtin. The Wolves responded with four in their half. Tumblin led with a single and scored on Chan’s double. Kurtis Smith later added a two-run single and then scored on a wild pickoff throw. The Falcons evened the score with three runs in the third highlighted by Jake Sladky’s two-run home run. In the fourth, Coupeville scored three to regain the lead for good. Curtin beat

Two more runs scored on a Falcon error. Trumbull took over on the mound in the fourth and scattered three hits and gave up only one earned run. After he walked the leadoff hitter in the seventh, Etzell took over and retired three straight to strand the tying run at second. Schaef highlighted the Coupeville defensive effort when “he came out of nowhere,” according to coach Smith, to snag a deep fly ball
to right center and hold runners at first and second. Smith said, “It was a huge play for us because they score at least two if he doesn’t make the catch.” He added, “It really was a good team win for us with a lot of different guys making key contributions throughout the game.” No Wolf had one than one hit; Chan and Etzell doubled and Smith had two RBI. The two teams conclude their three-game series at 4 p.m. in Coupeville Friday. The results of yesterday’s game in Langley were not available at press time.
Tennis team trips Murphy Lakewood stops soccer team Coupeville High School tennis team ran its record to 3-0 with a 5-0 win over visiting Archbishop Murphy Tuesday, March 19. The Wildcats showed up with only seven players, one short required for an official team. The coaches agreed to allow ATM to use some of its players twice to give more Coupeville players court time. Amanda d’Almeida defeated Haley Sizelove 8-2 in first singles, and Allie Hanigan stopped Dana Tran 8-0 in second singles. Holly Craggs and Iris Ryckaert won first doubles over Taylor Herrera and Madeline Hoben 8-1.
In second doubles, Ana Luvera and Mary Massengale (in her varsity debute) defeated Amy Camilleri and Lena Villani 8-2.

Lakewood’s Antino Bellizzi scored in the second minute of the match and that was it for the offense as the Cougars nipped the visiting Coupeville soccer team 1-0 Friday. Coach Paul Mendes said, “The early goal was a bit of a shocker, but we recovered well to even out the game and take it to them right to the end.” Unfortunately for the Wolves, they couldn’t punch home the equalizer though they had some chances.

He added, “Kole Kellison had a good game in goal for us, and our defense put in a solid effort shutting them out the entire second half.” Lakewood is now 1-1 in Cascade Conference play and 1-1-2 overall. The Wolves (0-2, 0-3) travel to Sultan (0-2, 1-3) for a 7 p.m. match Friday, then return to Mickey Clark Field at 6 p.m. Tuesday for a show down with Archbishop Murphy (1-0, 2-01).

We created more scoring opportunities than in last game, so we are making progress.” One of Coupeville’s best scoring chances came on a “spectacular overhead bicycle kick by Sean Donnelly from 12 yards,” according to Mendes. Had the Cougar keeper not recorded the save, it would have been “the goal of the year,” Mendes said.

Softball opens season with 2 wins in 3 games By Jim Waller Staff Reporter
Coupeville softball team started the season with three home games, a thrilling 9-8 win over South Whidbey Tuesday, March 19, a 14-5 walloping of Port Townsend Saturday and a 11-5 loss to Archbishop Murphy Monday. Against South Whidbey, the Wolves came back three times to grab the win, including scoring two runs in the bottom of the seventh. McKayla Bailey, battling through a hand injury, ripped a double to drive in the winning run. Haley Sherman walked on a full count to begin the final Wolf rally. Bree Messner moved her up with a sacrifice bunt and Chevy Reyes pushed Sherman to third with a ground out. Down to the final strike, Madeline Strasburg fouled of several two-strike pitches
before earning a walk. With Roberts at the plate, Sherman scored the tying run on a wild pitch. Roberts walked, which brought up Bailey, setting up the gamewinning double. Co-coach David King said, “Very windy and cold, the weather affected both teams on defense. A normal fly ball made it an adventure in the field.” “It wasn’t a pretty game due to weather and first-game nerves,” King said, “but we didn’t give up and kept battling. It was a good win to get and we know what we need to work on to continue to get better.” Bessie Walstad and Hailey Hammer each finished with two singles. Port Townsend jumped on the Wolves right away, scoring three runs in the top of the first inning. Undaunted, Coupeville scored nine in is half. Four walks and singles by Bailey, Sherman, Messner

triple. Bailey led the offensive assault with two hits, including a home run, and pitched the
final two innings, recording two strikeouts. Messner, Strasburg and Hammer each had two hits.
Maria Rockwell earned the pitching win, working the first five innings for four strikeouts, four hits and two earned runs. Archbishop Murphy collected its first win and Coupeville suffered its first loss. Murphy (1-3, 1-5) went up 6-0, then Coupeville scored five in the fourth. Singles by Roberts, Hammer and Walstad loaded the bases. Roberts scored on a passed ball, then with two outs, Messner walked to reload the bases. Reyes walked, forcing in one run, then Strasburg ripped a base hit that cleared the bases. However, from there the Wildcats kept scoring and the Wolves faded. Coupeville collected eight hits, led by Walstad with three and Hammer with two. Neither team committed an error. The Wolves (1-1, 2-1) host Sultan (2-1, 3-2) at 4 p.m. tomorrow.

The Whidbey Examiner office was the latest stopping point for the ongoing “Wandering Flamingos” fundraiser. The project is put on by the Coupeville High School Class of 2014 and raises money for the high school’s ASB program. While traditionally used in lawns, the class improvised, installing the birds wherever they could. In addition to the brightly-colored lawn ornaments, the office received written instructions on how to pass the flock on to someone else. The cost is a $10 donation. Prior to resting in Coupe’s Village, the
flock strayed to Shelli Trumbull’s Cascade Insurance office. They took flight from there and stopped in for some light reading. Recipients of the flamingoes may also pay for “insurance” to ensure the pink visitors don’t come by again. Flamingoes may be passed on to businesses or private residences from Rolling Hills to Greenbank. Trips outside the boundaries will cost extra. Keep an eye for the traveling pink flock. They might be headed your way!
