Man behind suspected drug house goes free Foundation funding Islanders say neighborhood where woman’s body found still plagued by crime By NATALIE JOHNSON Staff Writer
A man who’s been called Vashon’s top methamphetamine dealer had a significant drug charge thrown out last month, frustrating islanders who had long hoped his conviction would rid their neighborhood of suspected drug activity and related crime that centers around his home. “We’re just kind of at the end of our rope,” said Frank Shipley, who lives by the house. Richard Arthur Grant, a 47-yearold who authorities say is frequently arrested for drug possession and other crimes, now faces three additional drug charges and is scheduled to appear in court today. “I can’t predict what the court is going to do after this last time,” said Shipley, who has paid close attention to the situation. “The more times he is arrested, the more likely it is he’s going to be convicted.”
Grant came to the attention of plained about Grant and periodically many on Vashon last fall, when the called police on the house for years, body of a missing woman was found heightened attention fell on Grant last near his house.

Moving up: The class of 2013’s big moment The class of 2013 graduated Saturday under sunny skies in the Vashon High School stadium. The ceremony, by turns spirited, funny and solemn, featured several speeches, including an address given by students Alec Spencer and Kelly Sullivan, who the graduates had chosen to speak that day. It provided many laughs, but also several moving moments, including when they noted about Vashon, “It’s incredible how much love can fit into 13 miles of length.” Valedictorian Maria Osborne, who left her high school career behind with a 4.0 GPA, also addressed the group with a set of commandments she tries to follow, ranging from the importance of loving deeply and honestly to the value of thinking carefully about values. In the end, she conjured up A. A. Milne’s Piglet, telling them, “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying good-bye so hard.” The ceremony also included many tributes to retiring principal Susan Hanson, who spoke some about the difficulty of the year and the loss of students Palmer Burke and Ryan Krug. She had tender words for the graduates and told them at the end of each day to be sure to look for the joy they had experienced. “Because no matter how hard, there will always be joy,” she told the students before her. “You were my joy.” At right, graduates Jonathan Kim and Madelyn Royal walk together in the graduation processional. They’re followed by Emma Hennessey and Katherine Misel. Phil Royal Photo
short, but school district says no cuts
With state budget still unclear, campaign will wrap up this week By NATALIE JOHNSON Staff Writer
As the Vashon School District declares no cuts for the next school year, the schools foundation is scraping to round out the $350,000 in donations the district estimates it will need to avoid dipping into its reserves next year. As of Monday, the nonprofit Vashon Schools Foundation, which will end its public campaign Friday, had about $60,000 left to raise. “If that money came in this year, it would certainly help put us in a better place next year, instead of having a bigger hole to dig out of,” said Donna Nespor, the foundation’s coordinator. The foundation kicked off its third annual campaign in March with a goal to raise $500,000 to sustain district programs where state funding falls short. In 2011 it raised $440,000, and last year it brought in $436,000. About a month ago, as donations came in far slower than in past years, fundraisers revised their goal and put out a call for at least $350,000, the minimum SEE SCHOOLS, 18

To help island individuals and small business owners navigate coming changes stemming from national health care reform, the Chamber of Commerce is sponsoring an informational meeting about insurance coverage next week. Starting this fall, individuals and small businesses will be able to purchase health benefit plans from a new marketplace intended to make health insurance accessible to more people. To address these changes, the chamber has invited Scott Hacker, a representative from the Washington Health Benefit Exchange and an expert in the pending transition, to provide information to islanders. Insurance agent LeeAnn Brown, who is co-hosting the event and has been staying abreast of the coming changes, said she believes the meeting will provide information that will be valuable to many. “I think everyone in the community needs to know what to do about this,” she said. Like others across the country, islanders who purchase health insurance on their own instead of through their workplace will receive a letter this September, instructing them to pick a new plan through the new marketplace or they will be assigned a plan, Brown said. Attending next week’s meeting will help people know more about their options in advance of the open enrollment period, which will begin in October and
last until Dec. 7. Coverage with news plans will begin in January of 2014, she said. As part of health care reform, people with low and moderate incomes will be eligible for government subsidies to help them pay for insurance. For example, Brown said, a family of four who earns less than $90,000 will be eligible for a government subsidy. Information on subsidies will be available at the meeting, she noted, though specifics about health plan details and costs will not be ready yet. Brown noted that confusion about health care reform, sometimes known as Obamacare, runs high. Though the sweeping legislation was passed in 2010 and some changes have been implemented, including coverage until an adult child reaches age 26, many people do not understand much about the reforms. In fact, she said, she read recently that 42 percent of Americans believe that the Affordable Care Act — the name of the health care legislation — was repealed. At the Chamber of Commerce, Executive Director Jim Marsh said he is pleased to offer the event because providing health insurance is a large issue of concern for many business owners. And as the insurance marketplace changes get closer, the Chamber may host more informational events. “Good information is helpful,” he said. “If it’s really useful, we’ll do more if we can.”
The meeting will be from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, June 25, at the Penny Farcy Training Center. RSVPs are preferred to vashonchamber@hotmail. com.

VIPP handles record numbers of cats it’s hard to know why that is,� Terri said. Last month, the shelter housed 51 cats, compared with the 36 it held at the same time last year. Including cats in foster homes, the organization oversaw 67 cats last month, compared with 58 at the same time last year. Terri said she’d like to see the shelter’s numbers fall back under 40. Caring for the large numbers of cats is expensive for VIPP and taxing on its volunteers, Terri said. Being in tight quarters can also stress the cats and even lead to medical problems. “They’re not pack animals,� she said. “They like to have their own space.� To attract more potential cat owners, VIPP has tacked laminated photos of adoptable cats on bulletin boards island wide. The organization has extended its adoption hours for the summer, lowered its adoption fee from $75 to $50 and is holding a special senior cat adoption fair at Vashon Community Care. On Saturday from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., senior cats with mock “American Association of Retired Cats� cards made by VIPP volunteers will be available for adoption at Vashon Community Care. While anyone can adopt an aging cat at the event, seniors who hold their own AARP cards can take one home for just $20. Terri said she hoped the special promotions and the extended hours would get more people interested in adding a new pet to their lives. “The majority of our cats are very adoptable, they just need to find a family of their own,� she said.
Nonprofit takes special measures to adopt out cats before it accepts any more By NATALIE JOHNSON Staff Writer
Vashon Island Pet Protectors, with record numbers of cats and slow adoption rates, has temporarily stopped accepting new cats at its shelter and is making special efforts to adopt out the ones it has. “This is the first time we’ve had to do that simply because we had too many cats,� said Terri Fletcher, a longtime VIPP volunteer who helps manage the nonprofit’s cat shelter. Last Friday morning, as shelter volunteers arrived at the large modular off of Old Mill Road for their regular rounds of feeding, litter cleaning and playing, Terri noted that the building felt more crowded than usual. Two main rooms with attached patios that normally hold about a dozen cats each held 17 cats each that day. “It’s crazy,� Terri said. “We’ve had a couple of great foster homes that have stepped forward to alleviate some of the crowding.� Over the last several months, VIPP officials say, the shelter has taken in larger-than-normal numbers of cats. In a couple cases, big groups of cats were donated after their owners died. “We’ve had more relinquished cats this year for a variety of reasons,� said Geoff Fletcher, the president of VIPP. At the same time, cat adoptions have been low, Geoff said. The organization normally adopts out six to 12 cats a month, but in April they only found homes for five cats and last month just three. “This spring adoptions have been slower, and

Islanders put local bakery up for sale Business will continue as usual until right buyer comes along By SUSAN RIEMER Staff Writer
After nearly six years running Bob’s Bakery, the owners have put the longtime island business up for sale. Paul and Jill Beytebiere bought the bakery in 2007, when its previous owner, Bob Long, retired after more than 20 years. Since then, the bakery has weathered the recession and prolonged lean times, but it has continued to provide the sweet treats and savory offerings it is known for, along with serving as a social hub in the heart of
town. But it’s time for a change, the Beytebieres say, and possibly a change that could still include Paul as a baker. “I love baking, and I don’t want Bob’s not to be there,” he said. “I would love to work there.” Jill listed the business on Craigslist two weeks ago, and she expects they will list it with a local agent, as well, she said in an interview. Until the right owner comes along, the business will continue as usual, and, in fact, Jill said, they recently signed a new six-month lease with Long, who still owns the building. While running the bakery has not been a lucrative business venture for them, both Beytebieres believe the business could be profitable for the right people — individuals with good baking and business sense. But for them, it has become
too difficult, they say. The parents of eight children, they still have five kids at home. Jill’s time to run the business is limited, and Paul’s long nighttime hours, baking and on his feet, have not been easy on him, they both said. Jill said she would like to see Paul have some time to focus on healing, while Paul said he would like more time to spend with his kids and would like to work 40 hours a week instead of the 80 or more he has been working. When the couple bought the business, Paul noted that baking is one of his passions, along with soccer and kids. “I am like a fish out of water if I am not baking,” he said then. The sentiment, he noted, still holds true today.

EDITORIAL
Cycling holds rewards for the persistent
Neighbors have helped keep crime in check
Whenever someone leaves their desk here at The Beachcomber, I sneak over to their keyboard and try and get an article in the paper, and this week it worked. And as I plod through my 15 minutes of fame, I typically yammer on about cycling. Finally, the sun has graced us with its presence, and not a moment too soon. I’m not saying I was going stir crazy, but when I first heard about the book “Fifty Shades of Grey” I just assumed it was about the weather on Vashon. These last days of brilliant sunshine have given me hope that our long, sunless hiatus has ended. With the days longer and warmer, it’s time to wade through the garage detritus and pull out the bicycle. If you will indulge me for a moment, I will tell you why cycling is just about the best thing in the world. First of all, cycling is like sex: You don’t have to be good at it to enjoy it (however, unlike sex you can show someone how to ride a bike in your neighborhood cul-de-sac). Secondly, it’s an easy-on-thejoints activity that you can do your entire life. If you don’t believe me, listen to 100-year-old Robert Marchand, who last year said, “I did a little better than I hoped. However, the going was tough in the last few kilometers.” Robert had just completed a 62-mile ride in 4 hours and 17 minutes! I like cycling because it can be done as a solo effort, offering hours of quiet reflection, or as a group ride, where the shared effort promotes a feeling of camaraderie. Riding a bike is different from other forms of exercise in that it has utility. You can derive all the benefits of improved cardiovascular fitness, weight control and stress relief while
In January, King County Sheriff John Urquhart told islanders who attended a community council meeting on crime that often the sheriff’s office lacks the resources to go after suspected drug houses. “Sometimes, nothing can be done. I know that’s hard to hear,” he said. Those words seemed to both resonate with and bother islanders. The sentiment that even the sheriff says drug houses can’t be stopped is often repeated back to us by those concerned about drug-related crime on Vashon. A Vashon resident who is angry about a suspected drug house by the Vashon Airport — the house near where a young woman overdosed and died in a pond last year — remembered Urquhart’s words. He called it unconscionable that he and his neighbors would be left seemingly on their own to deal with serious issues in their backyards. Right or wrong, it’s a reality that drug houses are usually difficult to shut down because of the long legal process involved before criminal charges can be made. Detectives must perform an investigation, often working with an undercover informant, secure a search warrant for the suspected drug house and compile the evidence required to press charges, a process that can take years. Just two detectives work drug cases in King County, and they’re usually assigned to the region’s worst cases. So where does that leave homeowners by the Vashon Airport and residents of other neighborhoods tired of activity and crime surrounding suspected drug houses? Vashon’s sheriff’s deputies can’t easily shut the houses down, but with tips from citizens, they can keep close tabs on the suspected criminals who frequent them, looking to get them on arrest warrants or traffic infractions. And from what we understand, they do. Deputies have kept watch on the man suspected of dealing drugs out of his home by the Vashon Airport and arrested him several times already this year. While he got off on a drug possession charge from last year, because of deputies’ work, he’ll have to answer for at least three more charges this year. Persistent police work also helped address a suspected drug house east of Vashon town last year — attention from neighbors and authorities led the landlord to evict the tenants. Neighbors of suspected drug houses — we’re told there are others on the island — are right to be frustrated by a legal system that doesn’t always put the bad guys behind bars. But they’re also right to keep writing down license plates, sharing information with one another and calling police when incidents occur. The reports may not result in the tenants moving on, but we think they’ll help keep the homes in check and send a message that Vashon doesn’t put up with drug trafficking and the crime that accompanies it.
HUMOR By CHRIS AUSTIN getting something else done such as buying groceries, visiting a friend or commuting to work. It’s almost exercise by accident. No doubt there are some people reading this with a raised skeptical eyebrow thinking, “ I’m not in good enough shape” or “I’ll start after I lose some weight.” Unfortunately, that perfect moment in the future when you are ready to start exercising will never come. I know this all too well. As faithful readers of The Beachcomber will know, about four years ago, I was working in Washington, D.C., selling software to the military, not a bad job but not a great job. I realized it was a job that after 20 years I could look back and say, “meh, so what.” I also realized that males in my family have a shelf life of about 50 years. So at 49 years old and 100-plus pounds overweight, I sold most of my worldly belongings and struck out, very slowly, on a 4,000-mile bicycle trip across the country. A trip that included visits to the foreign lands of Canada and Mississippi as well as every friend’s couch I could think of. I won’t lie; there were times when it wasn’t pretty. I remember one day in particular somewhere in southern Ohio grinding up the umpteenth hill of the day all the while cursing a headwind. My stop for the night was over this last hill, and I was abso-

We assume no one had a retirement party for him and he left in the same way he did his job, quietly and effectively. Since we did not get a chance to say goodbye or give him a toast, we wanted to do that here. Mike handled shipping for us at the Country Store,
and he did a wonderful job. He also was a great salesperson, whether it was finding some special plant in the nursery or ordering silk long underwear for an out-of-state elderly person who was cold all the time. The most moving thing for us all was to watch Mike with Vi Beal. As Vi, the store’s original owner, has aged, Mike has helped her greatly. I remember thinking that she was so lucky to have such a dedicated man who obviously cared a great deal about her. You will be missed, Mike.

lutely exhausted. I creaked to a halt and stood slump shouldered straddling my bike with arms slung over the handlebars, gulping air. I looked at the top of the hill in despair. I couldn’t imagine moving another inch. Then I saw something so unexpected that I briefly forgot my burning legs. Halfway up the hill was a store, “Gumby’s Cigarette World.” Wow, how the mighty had fallen. The one-time claymation icon of Saturday morning television was now selling smokes in rural Ohio. If I had been Gumby and seen my superstardom slip through my weird hands, I am convinced I would have said, “goodbye cruel world” before jumping into a Play Doh press, but not the real Gumby. His is made of sterner stuff, metaphorically anyway. Gumby pulled himself up by the bootstraps. Well, Gumby really doesn’t have bootstraps because he doesn’t really have feet, but you know what I mean. “Well,” I thought to myself, “if Gumby didn’t give up, then neither will I.” And with that I put foot to pedal and made it over the hill. Inspiration can come from the most unlikely quarters. So get inspired, get a friend to bike with you or take a class or just hop on your bike and simply ride to the end of the street and back. You will be amazed at how quickly one street becomes two and two becomes around the block, and before long you be exploring places on this beautiful island you didn’t know existed.

New kind of space could benefit Vashon Imagine having office space that you only pay for when you need it. This is the idea behind a growing movement called coworking. Working from home doesn’t always work. Too many distractions cut down on productivity, and it can be isolating. Commuting from the island takes up an inordinate amount of time and is ultimately bad for the environment. Turns out the ideal way to telecommute is via a coworking space. Coworking is shared office space with a group of independent workers who rent on a monthly basis, similar to a gym membership. Coworking offices have existed in Seattle for some time, and now a group of islanders is making an effort to bring coworking to Vashon. At coworking offices, there are usually flexible membership options, whether drop-in, occasional, part-time or fulltime. Maybe you need conference room space for meetings once or twice a month but don’t want to pay for an expensive office to sit empty the rest of the time. Or perhaps you need an office a couple days a week to get caught up on work without the distractions of home or the coffee shop. Or maybe you need a full-time dedicated desk. A coworking space on
COMMUNITY By CAROLYN AMICK Vashon would also offer a unique opportunity for islanders who work independently or have flexible arrangements with their employers. For corporate commuters, the good news is that flex time is more common and easier to justify. Beyond its practical advantages, coworking spaces tend to cultivate members who share the values of the collaborative economy: openness, trust, sharing and connection. A cohesive community can begin from the disparate groups (in coworking speak, this is accelerated serendipity). Need help on a blog post? Ask someone who’s in the writing business or get PR firm recommendations. Need a programming tweak on your website? Check in with the developers two tables down. Members often end up working on or starting projects together. I am pleased to announce that a group of islanders plans to open HUB070, our own Vashon coworking and events
space, in the Spinnaker Building, just north of Chase Bank. Our goal is to provide a central gathering space for islanders to come together, not only to work, but to share ideas, resources, make connections and inspire opportunity. Examples of collaborative projects are on the horizon. For example, we are talking to a potential launch partner who intends to purchase a 3D printer and another who is interested in supporting nonprofit resource sharing. Possibilities for community building include a Vashon roundtable, a town hall, networking events and a business incubator program. A Vashon coworking space is a win-win for island workers, the environment, economic development of the town core and maybe you. We are currently looking to round out our steering committee of launch partners to build a space that truly reflects our island community and the way you want to work. If this is something that makes sense for you, please consider helping us launch Vashon’s HUB070 by contacting camick@ gmail.com or by filling out the form at www.hub070. com. — Carolyn Amick is a small business consultant, serial entrepreneur, and mother of three.

Mukai farmhouse
Historic site doesn’t seem endangered I have lived on Vashon for over 15 years. While looking for property, one of the options my husband and I had was Mukai Farm. The processing plant was not on the market and was owned by a different party. Frankly, we were daunted by the condition of the property, which had changed hands several times since the 1950’s. We passed on purchasing Mukai Farm.
My father, a prominent California architect, instilled in me an appreciation and love for architecture. I was drawn to our island because of the sense of home, community and the charming buildings. I have since learned that many buildings have been “saved” by Island Landmarks. Recently I attended the Island Landmarks open garden at Mukai. All I can say is the place is totally changed. The trailers are gone. The debris is removed. I could see the garden bones. The cyclone fence that divided the property is removed. The two properties are “one,” with the driveway removed and replanted. The house’s character was wonderful.
To me, this does not look neglected or endangered. What comes to mind as “endangered” is the Portage Store . Instead of rallies, negative articles and lawsuits, I think the Vashon community should thank Island Landmarks for saving the Mukai site. We should be counting our blessings that someone took the time to landmark other buildings like the Belle Baldwin house, Masonic temple, Point Robinson and many others. I believe Mary Matthews is due an apology from the island community, as she has led these efforts. Rather than angry fighting, let’s join together and be grateful and thankful. — Dovell Marks

Q:
We’ve been looking at land to buy and hope to build our own home. My husband and son are totally capable of building it themselves but we’ve been told the County won’t let you build your own house and that you have to use an architect. We already have house plans and don’t need an architect. What’s the story?
A:
I’m sorry that you’ve been told such erroneous information. You can build your own home here. The County just requires you to file an affidavit and show proof that you know what you’re doing. You don’t have to use an architect. However, it is always wise to share your plans with a qualified contractor and/or designer to be sure that what you want to build complies with King County and Washington state requirements. The County has an extensive website that will tell you each permit you will need, what the requirements are, and how to get a complete package together for the County building folks. It is straightforward but involved, so be prepared. You will need a detailed drawing of the property and everything that will be on it. You might find it easy to develop that off the septic design drawings. There will also have to be engineering drawings but those often come with plans. Be sure to have a local engineer take a look to be sure the specification fit King County requirements. The place to start is the septic design. It’s always a real bonus if you find a property that has already had a septic design done. If it hasn’t, you should do one before closing on the purchase. That will tell you so much about how the property can be developed. Water is also an issue, of course, so be sure a well can be drilled on the parcel or that there is a water share available. Again, the best option is finding a parcel that already has a water source. The land must be of a certain size to allow for a well and septic so be sure you understand the requirements.

“Love Free or Die,” the next film in the Community Cinema serious, is about Bishop Gene Robinson, whose two defining passions are in direct conflict: his love for God and for his partner Mark Andrew. Robinson, now retired from serving as a bishop in the Episcopal church, was the first openly gay person to become a Christian bishop. His consecration in 2003, to which he wore a bullet-proof vest, caused an international stir. The film follows Robinson from small-town churches in New Hampshire to Washington’s Lincoln Memorial to London’s Lambeth Palace, as he calls for all to stand for equality. Bishop Robinson now serves as a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress, a progressive think tank in Washington, D.C., and with St. Thomas Episcopal Church, also in Washington, D.C., where he spearheads an initiative to change the tenor of the political debate in the nation’s capital.

WHAT TO DO Dress up and dance Don a mask or disguise, and head out for a night of dancing at a Summer Solstice Masquerade — the revelries are set to begin at 7 p.m. Saturday at Open Space for Arts & Community. There will be hot Latin jazz and salsa on tap by a Seattle band that specializes in Cuban music, Mambo Cadillac. The group has been around since 2005 and has played at many major festivals, events and clubs. Producer David Godsey created the event as a way to herald the arrival of summer on Vashon, and he’s hoping islanders dress up fancy and wild for the soiree. “Let’s do what islanders are so brilliant at doing — be creative, have a good time and celebrate together. And if putting on a costume is just not your thing, well, of course you can come and dance anyway,” he said. Tickets, available at www.brownpapertickets.com, are $12 in advance and free for children ages 12 and younger. Admission will cost $15 at the door on the day of the event.
Indulge in Broadway tunes The music of Broadway will be in the air during four upcoming performances of “Yet Another Night on Broadway.” The show is a benefit for AHOPE for Children, an organization founded by islander Kathy Olsen to assist in the home and hospice care of HIV-positive children in Ethiopia. Over the years, as antiretroviral medications have became available to Ethiopian children, the focus of the organization has expanded to meeting the needs of young people who are long-term survivors of the disease. “Yet Another Night on Broadway,” directed by Tish Lopez with assists from Marita Ericksen, Pam Hotchkiss and Betsey Frazee, will star more than 20 local thespians. They’ll all sing songs from smashes, including “Les Miserables”, “Phantom of the Opera,” “West Side Story” and “The Music Man.” The show will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 2 p.m. Sunday at Bethel Church. There’s a suggested donation of $10 per ticket; children ages 6 and younger will be free. An open dress rehearsal will be held at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, June 20, at Bethel, with a $5 admission. Tickets are on sale at Vashon Bookshop and at the door.
Head out to hear a band Fendershine, a local rock and roll band that includes Fletcher Andrews, Eric Frith, Steve Meyer, Kim Thal and Rick Vanselow will play a free, all-ages show at 8:30 p.m. Saturday at Red Bicycle Bistro. Opening for the band will be Phil Royal, who plays finger-style guitar.

Garden Path By ELIZABETH SHEPHERD Staff Writer
P
ut on your walking shoes: It’s time for a stroll through the five exceptional landscapes selected for this year’s Vashon Allied Arts’ Garden Tour. The tour, now in its 23rd year, takes place this weekend, and organizers are hoping for sunny skies and moderate temps — big draws for an event that is budgeted to bring in about $40,000 for the arts organization. But as always, the tour is being billed as a feast for the senses, filled with beautiful vistas and the fragrent scents of many blooms that are sure to delight visitors, rain or shine. There will be food for thought, too, during the tour — a total of 15 talks by experts will take place in the gardens throughout the weekend, with subjects ranging from tips on building rockeries to how to capture gorgeous flora on film. One talk, given by James Ullrich, owner of Wild Birds Unlimited, will be, quite literally, about the birds and the bees, while author Terry Hershey will share his insights into how to create meditation spots in gardens. Visual art will also be on display. Sculptural garden art by Penny Grist, Brian Brenno, Gregory Burnham, Brian Fisher, Mike Urban and Barbara Wells has been tucked into some of the terrain on the tour. Tile art by David Blad and Mary Lynn Buss will also grace gardens, and Paula Allegrini and Sylivija Plaza will exhibit wood works and glass tables, respectively. Other art will include Shannon Buckner’s blacksmith floral works and Charlotte Masi’s painted gourds. A garden market will feature the work of more than 20 artists
and craftspeople, offering garden sculpture, tile work, glass, soaps, garden tools and more. The real stars of the tour, of course, will be the five resplendent grounds on display.
Humble Bumble Farm Cindy Ward’s Humble Bumble Farm includes an eclectic mix of fragrant lavender gardens, a working farm and even a “secret” garden. The front garden features more than 200 Provence “Intermedia Grosso” lavender plants that paint the slope leading to the front pasture. The secret garden, planted 14 years ago on a former horse pasture, brims with many varieties of vegetables, shrubs and flowers and features several archways with climbing perennials. A Tudor style redwood greenhouse is used to create a warm winter environment to start seedlings and cultivate gardenia and orchids. The remainder of the property provides pastures for chickens, horses, cows and goats.
Froggsong Garden Steve and Cindy Stockett’s Froggsong garden is located within a 17-acre property and includes a mix of defined, structured areas softened by the casual disorder of perennial cottage gardening — a style the Stockett’s call “Northwest Formal.” Visitors can explore a rose pergola, a roundel garden in pale yellow and blue motif, an English knot garden, an alpine garden and a tranquil pond. Another garden area, added in 2012, includes a passageway punctuated with stone cairns, a wind garden and a labyrinth. The garden will be featured on the cover of the July/August issue of Fine Gardening Magazine.

Above, Froggsong Garden has been a decade-long labor of love for its owners. Left, the Gawith/Weiss Garden features many drought tolerant plants.
Gawith/Weiss Garden Ron Gawith and Linda Weiss moved to their property in 2004 and began to embellish a sunny, five-acre blank slate. They focused on drought tolerant, textured plants and their favorite silver-green color palate. Gawith said he has enjoyed creating levels and garden rooms that provide a flow for the couple’s indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Rounding out the property is a lawn, a meandering droughttolerant garden of grasses and sedums, a small greenhouse, a wood-fired pizza oven and a row of fig trees that provide a favorite pizza topping.
Roehm Garden Chuck and Nancy Roehm began to plant their garden shortly after they moved to their home 20 years ago. It features Northwest favorites, rhododendrons, azaleas and hydrangeas.
The Roehms recently designed and installed a flagstone patio area in their sunny backyard. Colorful annuals, Northwest natives, ceanothus and rock roses give the property a Mediterranean ambience. Nancy, a math teacher, incorporated geometric elements into the gardens: an octagonal stamped-concrete driveway inset, a double-arched cedar gate and a second cedar gate with a hexagonal design.
Small/Goodman Garden The garden of Miles Small and Kerri Goodman-Small is a five-acre oasis designed for both peaceful contemplation and dynamic outdoor entertainment. Starting with a challenging “bowling alley” shaped space, the couple transformed the landscape into an inviting garden with a natural rock waterfall and pond, indigenous low maintenance plantings, fireplaces and layered decks.
The Garden Tour takes place from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Tickets, $25, are good for both days and include admission to all the gardens and talks. They can be purchased at Vashon Allied Arts, Heron’s Nest, www.vashonalliedarts.org and many island businesses. The tour will kick off with a sunset gala at 6 p.m. Friday night, an exclusive affair that includes a catered dinner and live entertainment in a waterfront garden. A few tickets, $125, may still be available for that event — call 463-5131 to find out. Complete Garden Tour information is available at www.vashonalliedarts.org.

Sarah Christine (center) will perform with her band in Ober Park’s first summer concert.
Music comes back to Ober Park By ELIZABETH SHEPHERD Staff Writer
A summer tradition on Vashon will kick off Thursday with the first in a series of outdoor concerts in Ober Park. The series, presented by the Vashon Park District in association with Vashon Events and Vashon Allied Arts, will offer a slate of performers who play genres spanning soul, honky-tonk, world music and Latin fusion. In addition to music, the series will also include a Shakespeare in the Park show in August. The music and theater events will go on, despite the fact that construction for the expansion of the Vashon Library is still happening. Performances and seating for the concerts will now be reconfigured to the east side of the parks department building. There will still be room for the large, all-ages crowds drawn to the concerts, said organizer Pete Welch. “There is plenty of grass to spread out those picnic blankets and lawn chairs,� Welch said. “Families can come to Ober Park and relax, let the kids play on the playground and enjoy the entertainment.� The series kicks off at 7 p.m. Thursday with local chanteuse Sarah Christine, who’ll bring her band to the stage to play uplifting, danceable music inspired by the
flavors of soul, reggae and rythmn and blues. Christine’s band includes some of Vashon’s best-known players. The next show in the series will feature Incendio, a Los Angeles-based band that combines boleros, salsas, tangos, mambo and other Latin forms with Indian, Arabic and Celtic stylings. That show, set for 7 p.m. Friday, July 5, will be co-sponsored by islander Jessa Zimmerman as a celebration of her 50th birthday. Billy Joe & The Dusty 45s, a Seattle group, will deliver up honky-tonk, jump blues and rock and roll at 7 p.m. Thursday, July 25. The Seattle Shakespeare Company will bring their production of “The Tempest� to the park at 7 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 3. The company is a year-round professional ensemble that presents performances and youth programs to audiences throughout the Puget Sound region. The concert series will close at 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22, with a show by Picoso, a band that is grounded in the Afro-Latino sounds of the Caribbean. Welch said he hopes islanders show up in droves for the shows. “If you’ve never experienced the warmth of community at the cool nights of summer concerts in the park, you’re in for a special treat,� he said.
Marley’s Ghost, a welltraveled music ensemble made up of singers and multi-instrumentalists Dan Wheetman, Jon Wilcox, Mike Phelan, Ed Littlefield Jr. and Jerry Fletcher, will play a show at 4 p.m. Sunday at the Open Space for Arts & Community. The band, which has been together for 25 years, will bring its virtuoso mix of almost every kind of music, including country, to the stage. “The band has always been eclectic, and that’s one of the reasons we’ve stayed together for this long,� Wheetman said. “I’ve said this before, but instead of having to be in a Delta blues band, an a cappella singing group, a country band, a reggae band and being a singer/songwriter, I’m in one band, and we just do all that. It’s very convenient.� The group’s 10th album, “Jubilee,� reflects that ecumenical taste, with six original tracks and seven covers drawn from the songbooks of Kris Kristofferson, Levon Helm, Bobby and Shirley Womack, John Prince and other greats.
VASHON-MAURY ISLAND
What’s more, the album — produced by legendary Nashville cat Cowboy Jack Clement and recorded at Clement’s venerable Sound Emporium — features guest performances from Emmylou Harris, John Prine, Old Crow Medicine Show, Marty Stuart, Larry Campbell, Byron House and Don Heffington. The band has won wide acclaim and a dedicated fan base in its years on the road.
A review in L.A. Weekly said, “This West Coast [group] deftly, and frequently daffily, dashes across decades of American music to create a sound that’s steeped in tradition but never bogged down by traditionalism.� Tickets to the show, $12, are available at www. brownpapertickets.com, Vashon Bookshop and the door. It’s an all-ages event. —Elizabeth Shepherd

Vashon’s annual celebration of sea life returns to Point Robinson This weekend Point Robinson will teem with life, not only because one of the lowest tides of summer will reveal a multitude of sea creatures, but also because of the many visitors expected to turn out for the eighth annual Low Tide Celebration. The celebration, which in past years has drawn upwards of 1,000 visitors from Vashon and beyond, will take place Sunday afternoon, when an extreme low tide of -3.4 feet will unveil tidepools and varied beach habitats. Vashon Beach Naturalists, who organize the event, say beach-goers can explore two dramatically different shoreline habitats at the well-known beach. The sandy point holds large tide pools where colorful sea stars, anemones, crabs and fish make their homes, while at the cobble beach to the north, hermit crabs hide under rocks, moon snails peek above the surface and clams squirt water. Special signs will mark the locations of interesting animals, and volunteer beach naturalists will be on hand to identify creatures and tell about their lives. In addition, the Point Robinson Lighthouse will be open for tours and a new exhibit will be on display inside the lighthouse. “Whistles, Horns and Lights” will highlight
the equipment used at the point since 1885. Festival food will be for sale and several environmental organizations — such as the Vashon-Maury Audobon Society, VashonMaury Island Land Trust and the state Department of Natural Resources — will staff informational booths. In what has become a well-loved tradition at the celebration, local Native Americans will row the Blue Heron, a traditional Salish canoe, across Puget Sound from Federal Way to Point Robinson. Also as in past years, Odin Lonning, a celebrated Tlingit artist and educator, will lead a beach walk where he will describe traditional Native American uses of shellfish and other shoreline resources. New this year, colorful Low Tide Celebration T-shirts designed by Lonning and incorporating the lighthouse, sea creatures and Native designs will be for sale. — Natalie Johnson The Low Tide Celebration will take place from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday at Point Robinson. A shuttle bus will run along Point Robinson Road to transport people between their parked cars and the festivities.

Chamber director eager to share what excites him on Vashon Welcome Vashon, the nonprofit that aims to welcome and connect islanders, recently interviewed several high-profile Vashon residents on the idea of welcoming. Jenn Reidel, a member of Welcome Vashon, conducted the interviews and wrote articles about what welcoming means to various islanders. By JENN REIDEL For The Beachcomber
As executive director of the Vashon-Maury Island Chamber of Commerce, Jim Marsh is in the business of welcoming. He is originally from Evanston, Ill., where he ran a marketing company and was president of the local chamber. Marsh, who is currently in the throes of planning for Strawberry Festival, remembers many welcoming things happening in the first months after he and his partner moved to the island. In our interview, Marsh shares his perspective on the joys and challenges of his welcoming work on a small island where the gap between the pros and cons of “tourism” is a big one. Jenn Reidel: So your job is pretty much about welcoming. What is important about welcoming to the Chamber, beyond being good for business? Jim Marsh: Yes, we do run the visitor center. However, our work at the Chamber is not just welcoming new people; it is welcoming people’s talents, ideas, criticisms and stories. It is not just about directing a visitor to a place to dine or shop, although that is important. It is about sharing what is cool and what you are passionate about on the island. If someone comes in and says they like horses, food or art, there are places I can talk to them about. If someone comes in and they are looking for something unusual, I tell them where the UFO is. Reidel: Well I’ve lived here 20 years and never heard about that. Where is the UFO? Marsh: That’s it! What we experienced right there is what is so cool about this. I’m new here, and I just told you something you didn’t know. If the dynamic was set up to make me feel less than you because you have been here 20 years and I have only been here two years, maybe I

Jim Marsh is the executive director of the Vashon-Maury Island Chamber of Commerce. wouldn’t have wanted to share that. There is a dynamic that is creative when people are welcoming to each other — a creative energy gets built. Part of welcoming is making where you live more fun and engaging. If it is a fun place to be, people will be able
to make their living here and do well. Reidel: Sounds like you have met lots of people in the two years you have lived here. Have you had any unwelcoming experiences? Marsh: What I find unwelcoming are interactions with islanders who have a sense of privilege about living here. I’ve had conversations with people, and they shut down the conversation when they say, “You haven’t been here long enough.” Since I haven’t lived here that long, I have the gift of a beginners’ mind or ignorance. History is important. “Part of welcoming is But it is a red flag to me making where you live when someone says, “You more fun and engaging. don’t know the history of When someone says that, If it is a fun place to be, it.” more often than not, they people will be able to are trying to prevent change make their living here from happening. So I say, let’s talk about the history, and do well.” but let’s also talk about what Jim Marsh we want to do with it. Vashon Chamber of Commerce Reidel: What experience do you remember where you felt particularly welcomed and special? Marsh: One time was when we went to the Gravity of Kindness, a performance event on someone’s property. People walked around with trays of fresh blackberries. Kids did circus acts; my favorite barista danced. People told me it was a gift to the island. I felt pure joy there. Something shared for the love of it. I think we are all very lucky people on this island. We are influenced by the fact that we live here. By the beauty that surrounds us in nature and in people. By the fact that we have to take a boat to leave. That has an effect on a person. We are not inherently special. We create it with each other. And that is why it is important to be welcoming. — Jenn Reidel is a freelance web designer, fine art photographer and writer who lives on Vashon.

SCENE AT THE SCHOOLS Another class completes a beloved bird program

Jan Smith’s fourth-grade class at Chautauqua Elementary School shows off colorful bird paintings they completed as part of the popular fourth-grade birding program. The students also participated in a class series on birding with Vashon Audubon. Retired school teacher Carol Ferch started the program years ago at the former Vashon Elementary School. Rose Belknap, who can be seen at the center and back of the group, currently carries it on. Belknap has recieved grants from Vashon Allied Arts’ Artistsin-the-Schools program to work with Chautauqua students for the last several years. Organizers say the birding program is a way to explore not only biology and ecology, but also art. All students sketch the birds they’re studying in class, culminating in detailed, full-color renditions they can take home.

SCHOOLS CONTINUED FROM 1
amount district officials estimated it would need to fill open teaching positions, sustaining electives at the high school and not increasing class sizes at the elementary school. As donations slowly trickled in, friction in Olympia delayed the state’s budget process. With an unclear picture of how much money the district might receive from the state or the foundation, Superintendent Soltman said he decided to fill the open teaching positions. “The problem is the Legislature has dilly dallied for long enough that all of the deadlines for reducing staff are passed,” he said. “We weren’t ready to sacrifice the program by not getting qualified applicants, so we went and got them,” he said. Foundation organizers say they’re still hopeful funds will come in to bring the total to at least $350,000. They’re courting

Depending on how much it receives from the state and foundation, the school district may have to dip into its reserves to fill next year’s budget. Fee increases could also help bridge the gap, he said. “We have a sufficient reserve fund balance to make it through the year if we have to. That means we’d just have to make it up the next year,” Soltman said. Nespor said the foundation was already talking about how it could create more incentive to give next year. “I think families struggle with their budgets, and if it’s not something they immediately feel the effect of, they decide they don’t need to change their budgets. It’s got to be a priority,” she said. While Nespor emphasized that the foundation is grateful for families and businesses that have continued to give, ultimately more people will have to make the decision to support schools in order for Vashon schools to continue as they are. “At some point, we have to leave it up to the families and community to say this is important to me and I want to donate,” she said.

Carl James Campbell September 14, 1978 – March 27, 2013 Carl has left this world an empty place. He was an extremely loving son, brother, uncle and friend. Carl always had a ready smile for anyone who needed it. He gave 110% of himself in everything he did, whether at work with his bosses, Bruce and Matt Cekosh; while using his great carpentry skill; or at play with friends or his RC cars. He enjoyed fishing and spending time with his “buds” at Lisabeula Park. Carl had no enemies, only friends who had “not gotten with the program.” He loved music and would play it and listen for hours. Carl was preceded in death by his grandparents, James and Lois Campbell. He is survived by his parents, Tom and Pennie James, and five siblings, Sheila, Angie, Jerry, Michelle, and Billy. He also had three step-siblings, Jeff, Stacy, and Daniel. Carl and his passion for fun will be sorely missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. Rest In Peace, Carl. You earned it. “See ya on the other side.”

Shipley said he and others who live by the airport have looked into possible legal options for addressing the situation, such as using a civil lawsuit or nuisance ordinance, but so far they haven’t found a route they were hopeful about. “We’ll always be looking for what can be done. … If there’s any way we can help law enforcement find a solution, we will help them,” he said. Wald on Monday praised Vashon deputies’ work but struck a less hopeful tone about the house. There was still lots of traffic there, she said, and the situation seems “devastatingly hopeless.” “It just feels ugly down here,” she said.

Several high school students were involved in a rollover accident two weeks on a late-start morning beore school. According to a King County Sheriff ’s Office report, the accident occurred around 9:30 a.m. Thursday, June 6, near the 9000 block of S.W. 204th St. A 16-year-old Vashon High School student was driving an SUV and carrying six fellow teens as passengers. The vehicle was traveling eastbound going down a hill at a curve, and the driver apparently crossed into the oncoming lane and overcorrected, according to the report. The vehicle then spun around onto the gravel shoulder before sliding into bushes and rolling over onto its top. Everyone in the car was wearing seat belts, according to the report, and no one reported an injury. When the deputy arrived,
he found that all the passengers had left the accident and gone to school. By law in Washington, for the first six months after getting a driver’s license, teens under 18 must wait six months before carrying passengers under age 20, except for immediate family members. In the next six months, they are to have no more than three passengers under 20 years old who aren’t members of their immediate family. According to Sgt. Cindi West, a spokeswoman for the King County Sheriff’s office, violating that regulation is considered a secondary infraction and can only be ticketed if a driver is cited for a primary infraction. As of Monday, West said, the officer who went to the scene had not yet determined if he would cite the driver for any violations. — Susan Riemer
