Whidbey Island business leaders are taking a stand as pro-Navy and probusiness in the wake of the ongoing debate over jet noise at Outlying Field Coupeville.

Coupeville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Lynda Eccles said she was inspired to speak out when she heard some Whidbey residents were calling for a boycott of Coupeville businesses in the wake of a federal lawsuit filed by a Central Whidbey Group against the Navy over the jet noise.

Eccles and some business owners fear that Coupeville might unfairly be perceived as anti-Navy as a result of the lawsuit, and that the businesses will suffer as a result.

“We’re very supportive of our armed services,” Eccles said. “It’s getting ugly See CHAMBERS, A10

A state-funded program is proving invaluable to Island County law enforcement in verifying the location of registered sex offenders.

Last month, Island County received a $72,500 state grant to help offset the cost for detectives to track down and verify the residences of sex offenders.

In light of recent state and federal budget cuts, Island County Sheriff Mark Brown said that the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs (WASPC) “lobbied really hard” to keep the sex offender verification funds in the budget because of its effectiveness.

“We were concerned it would go away,” Brown said.

Prior to the program, Brown said, registered offenders were simply required to selfreport or respond to mailed correspondence.

This led to frequent failure to report as well as offenders reporting an incorrect residence.

Island County has approximately 89 reported resident registered sex offenders; three Level III offenders, which require face-to-face verification every three months; five Level II offender which require verification every six months; and 71 Level I offenders who must be verified annually.

Now in it’s fourth year, the program continues to prove effective in reducing the chance that sex offenders are mis-reporting or failing

f

to report their whereabouts, according to Dawn Larsen, director of projects for WASPC. To fund the program statewide, $4.8 million was allocated to verify the addresses and residency of all registered sex offenders and kidnapping offenders.

All of Washington’s 39 counties participate in the optional program, Larsen said. Each county is allotted monies based on the number of sex offenders within its borders.

The program was initiated in response to the 2007 abduction, rape and murder of 12-year-old Zinna Linnik of Tacoma.

Terapon Dang Adhahn, who was convicted of the crime, was previously convicted of a sex crime but was considered a “low risk” Level I sex offender. The lack of proper registry reporting factored into the crime, leading to a statewide debate on sex offender monitoring, according to news reports.

The problem was, Larsen said, as a sex offender “I can go in and tell you I live wherever, and I’m living in a completely different place.”

After the Linnik case, she said, Washington law enforcement leaders created a work group to address sex offender monitoring.

In the first year of the face-to-face verification program in 2010, “the number of folks who weren’t where they said they were dropped in half.”

“It works well,” Larsen said. “It makes monitoring so much easier.

City finalizes new location for animal shelter JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Wayward dogs found in Oak Harbor will soon get new digs where they can wait for their people to find them.

City officials struggled to figure out how to deal with strays since Whidbey Island Naval Air Station announced last year that the current animal shelter on the Seaplane Base would be closed and razed.

It took a lot of work on behalf of Police Chief Ed Green and City Administrator Larry Cort, but most of the pieces have finally fallen together.

The new shelter for strays should open by early October.

Oak Harbor City Council approved a contract Tuesday with the nonprofit organization Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation, or WAIF, to manage the new facility.

Under terms of the contract, the city will pay WAIF a total of $100,000 a year, which is a $15,000 increase from the expired contract. The new contract runs from Sept. 30 to the end of 2015.

“It helps with some of our increased costs, but it still doesn’t cover all that we do for the shelter,” said Shari Bibich, WAIF shelter manager. She said the payment from the city is supplemented by

Jessie Stensland/Whidbey News-Times

Oak Harbor Police Chief Ed Green checks out the new location for the city’s animal shelter, which will open this fall. donations and profits from the WAIF thrift stores.

Green explained that the city put out a request for proposals for the shelter management. They received two responses, but only WAIF’s proposal met the guidelines.

The city entered into a lease with option to purchase of a commercial kennel on Goldie Road, not far from

the VFW. The acquisition will cost the city $2,500 a month, plus an additional $10,000 for the option to purchase.

Green said the old-fashioned kennels are currently being remodeled to comply with hygiene and safety requirements for modern animal shelters.

The work will cost about $20,000.

For now, only eight or nine kennels will be completed. Green said there won’t be adoptions out of the facility at first, but it will just be a holding facility.

Stray dogs and cats will be brought to the kennel, where their owners can come bail them out.

The shelter will be open late one day a week.

After the requisite number of days, the pets will be transferred the WAIF’s ownership and taken to the group’s larger Coupeville shelter or a cat adoption center, where they can be adopted out.

Green said the kennel has room to expand and in the future it could be turned into an adoption center.

“We have a lot of ideas,” he said.

Under its contract with the city, WAIF will receive a one-time payment of up to $15,000 to upgrade the cat adoption facility in Oak Harbor.

The new facility on Goldie Road just doesn’t have enough room for all the stray cats, Bibich said.

Last year, the Oak Harbor shelter took in 260 stray cats, but only 13 of those were picked up by their owners.

By comparison, they received 332 lost dogs and 184 were redeemed by owners.

One piece unresolved involves the Navy. In the past, the Navy allowed the city to use the ramshackle building on the Seaplane Base as a shelter in return for animal control services on base property.

Green said the city is negotiating with the property management firm on the base to come up with a new agreement for the service. The idea, he said, is the company will pay a fee, which will offset the city’s costs.

Officers recognized for life-saving efforts

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Two Oak Harbor residents are alive today because of the efforts of three police officers.

That was the message during a special presentation at the Oak Harbor City Council meeting Tuesday in which Officers Jon Valenzuela, Mike Clements and Mel Lolmaugh were recognized for their life-saving efforts.

Oak Harbor Police Chief Ed Green described how Valenzuela saved a middleaged man who hanged himself June 22.

Valenzuela and depu-

ties with the Island County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of a gunshot at a residence of a possible suicidal m a n .

Green said the Valenzuela man had m a d e threats to officers in the past.

Valenzuela and the officers responded to the house and set up a perimeter.

Valenzuala entered the garage and found the man

hanging from the ceiling from a rope with a noose tightly around his neck.

Valenzuela ran to the man, holding him up as he cut the rope.

The man survived.

Green said in an interview that the gunshot may have been the sound of the man kicking over whatever he was standing on.

“Of ficer Valenzuela showed dedication, professionalism and providing the highest level of service to the citizens of Oak Harbor,” the chief said.

Fire Chief Ray Merrill read a letter that explained how officers Clements and

Lolmaugh helped to save a 35-year-old woman March 28.

They were the first on the scene in response to a report that the woman was unresponsive at a home on Ronhaar Street.

They attached the automatic defibrillator to the woman — who had no pulse — but the machine recognized that a shock was not appropriate.

The two men immediately started CPR and continued until paramedics arrived.

The woman also survived.

Merrill said the incident was illustrative of how well the police and fire departments work together.

Crawlspace fire extinguished in empty home

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

A police officer helped extinguish a fire at a house across from the police station Wednesday morning.

Oak Harbor Fire Chief Ray Merrill said a passerby noticed smoke coming out of the crawl space of a house on Southeast Ireland Street at about 6:15 a.m.

The home was unoccupied at the time.

An officer got to the house first and used a pressurized water cannon — provided by the fire department — to slow the progress of the fire.

An engine truck, a ladder truck and two com-

mand vehicles from the fire department weren’t far behind.

Merrill said the responders extinguished the blaze in five to 10 minutes.

There was no fire or heat damage to the interior of the house, but the conflagration-related destruction was confined to the outside of the structure.

Merrill estimates the damage at $5,000.

The fire was started from a cigarette butt that was discarded in the beauty bark next to the house, according to the fire chief.

Student’s liftoff nears

Anacortes grad lands playhouse scholarship

By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter

By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter

When Brenna Casey visited her stepfather’s workplace in Oak Harbor three years ago, it didn’t take long for a nearby structure to catch her attention.

A short distance from Jeffery Pleet’s Edward Jones Investments office on Midway Boulevard sits Whidbey Playhouse.

Introductions would soon be in order.

“My dad would work late at night, I’d go to the playhouse,” she said.

Casey, a 2013 graduate of Anacortes High School, acted in two shows at the playhouse and worked with the stage crew in another.

On Friday, she received a $1,000 scholarship from the Whidbey Playhouse for her contributions.

She’ll use that to help with her education at Washington State University, where she plans to major in business finance and earn a minor in music.

The Whidbey Playhouse brought back the scholarship after eight years.

It is awarded to students

Brenna Casey, a 2013 graduate of Anacortes High School, was awarded a $1,000 scholarship from Whidbey Playhouse to go toward her education at Washington State University. involved in the playhouse who plan to continue with performing or dramatic arts in college.

Casey, who earned a 3.3 grade-point average with a workload that included advanced-placement courses, met all of the requirements, which also included an essay.

“The main criteria is being involved in a production here at the playhouse,” said Mary Kay Hallen, the scholarship chairperson. “Her GPA was really good. And the clarity of her essay (was strong).”

Casey, 18, acted in “Murder in the Magnolias” and “It’s a Wonderful Life.”

Although she was involved in several high school productions, her

family chose Whidbey Playhouse in Oak Harbor over the Anacor tes Community Theatre -- and not just because her dad’s office was nearby.

“You get so close with the performers around you,” Casey said.

“Everyone’s so nice. It’s community theater. Some people are performing in their first play, some are performing in their 100th play. It’s a very positive atmosphere.

“At auditions, it’s not make or break. They’re all very supportive. We have a good time.”

“For a community this size, this is a great venue,” said Cindy Casey, her mom. “People from Anacortes have season tickets down here.”

Uma Bernardo is a bit of a world traveler, having twice traveled to Japan in recent years.

The trip that had the most profound impact on the teenager wasn’t very far at all.

It was from Whidbey Island to Everett.

Bernardo, 14, is getting ready to fly from Naval Air Facility Atsugi in Japan to attend the Space Academy in Huntsville, Ala., Aug. 11-17.

She won a highly-competitive Bernard Curtis Brown II Space Camp Scholarship for children of active-duty military while attending Oak Harbor Middle School last spring.

In May, the family had to move to Japan after her stepfather, Senior Chief Frankie Sanchez, transferred from Whidbey Island Naval Air Station to Atsugi.

Bernardo finished the seventh grade in Japan.

It was an essay by Bernardo that landed her a scholarship that was established by the Military Child Education Association board of directors in 2001.

The scholarship gives military-connected children a chance to test their knowledge and experience a week’s worth of activities focused around science, technology, math and engineering.

The scholarship was named

Uma Bernardo, who attended Oak Harbor Middle School, is headed to Space Camp in Huntsville, Ala. after Bernard Curtis Brown II, who was killed Sept. 11, 2001 when the hijacked airliner he was aboard crashed into the Pentagon.

Last year, only 15 children earned the all-expense paid scholarship to Space Camp.

Bernardo’s winning essay was based on astronaut Neil Armstrong and his famous quote, “One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.”

She said her interpretation of that quote was that by striving for our dreams, “we can change what mankind is capable of doing and what we can do, in so many different ways.

The moon’s the limit, and maybe in the future the limit is farther than the moon.”

Bernardo said she was

encouraged to apply for the scholarship by her science teacher at Oak Harbor Middle School, Jason Schmid.

Her essay also focused on a trip she, her family and visitors from Japan took to Boeing’s massive plant at Paine Field in Everett last winter.

“We were able to see how airplanes were being made,” Bernardo said.

“When I saw this, I was really inspired by what man could achieve. It almost made me cry. The planes were massive and the people were so small compared to them. Seeing the people work together to make the planes is really impressive.”

“It shows that really anything could happen if you strive for it.”

That also applies to her upcoming trip to Alabama.

She convinced her mother, Emilie Sanchez, that she can handle the trip back the United States alone.

“Me and my husband were just looking at each other,” Sanchez said of a request they eventually granted.

“She’s really very goaldriven,” Emilie Sanchez said. “If something catches her attention, she learns a lot about it. She’s like a cotton ball that absorbs water.

She absorbs knowledge.”

Chambers deserving of respect for taking a stand against boycott It’s welcome news that the Oak Harbor and Coupeville chambers of commerce are coming together to present a united front on behalf of island businesses.

Threatening to boycott any business is not to be taken lightly.

At the root of the boycott rumblings is a Central Whidbey group’s federal lawsuit seeking to compel the Navy to complete a new environmental impact statement on the impacts of noise at Outlying Field Coupeville.

The lawsuit has infuriated Navy supporters on North Whidbey and resulted in rallies in support of continuing flight exercises at OLF Coupeville.

The safety of flyers is the greatest concern for ralliers — OLF Coupeville is used for practicing landings on aircraft carriers.

Fear of what will happen to the economies of North Whidbey and rest of the island if the Navy were to cut operations here is another concern. Many OLF supporters believe the lawsuit places in jeopardy their livelihoods.

Because the group that filed the lawsuit is comprised of Central Whidbey residents, the impulse for some pro-OLF supporters has been to hurt businesses in Coupeville whether or not they support the anti-OLF lawsuit.

Among those potentially hurt by a boycott is Marcia Johnson, herself the wife of a Navy pilot. She owns the Knead and Feed Restaurant, located along Coupeville’s historic Front Street.

“We can’t afford to alienate anyone,” said Johnson.

Kathy Reed, director of the Oak Harbor chamber, and Lynda Eccles, director of the Coupeville chamber, are planning to meet soon to develop a plan for addressing the divisiveness that’s threatening to hurt local businesses.

“I don’t want to see the whole issue divide us any further,” Reed said.

“We’re all Whidbey Island.”

Meanwhile, Eccles said the Coupeville chamber is making posters with a pro-Navy, pro-business message for businesses to display in their windows.

“We’re very supportive of our armed services,” Eccles said.”

While this newspaper respects the rights of those arguing on both sides of the OLF issue, we have maintained that it is neither right nor fair to punish businesses simply because of their geographic location.

We applaud the Oak Harbor and Coupeville chambers for having the courage to stand together in helping to keep businesses from being hurt in this very heated public debate.

Letters to the editor Support

Organization supports White Jersey Program Editor, Bravo Zulu for the new DUI prevention program developed at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station as mentioned in the July 13 issue of the Whidbey News-Times, “White Jersey Program aims to curb Navy DUIs.” Such an innovative aviation approach at a naval air station should prove to be a great way to connect with personnel to help prevent DUIs. Other ways include the presentations provided on base by the Impaired Driving Impact Panel of Island County.

Since last October more than 3,000 military personnel experienced IDIPIC panels in six presentations reserved by commands, which we hope has contributed to the lower number of active-duty DUIs being reported this year.

The DUI-(Free) Day reward program is another positive approach we’re pleased to see implemented

as well. Since the fiscal crisis has curtailed the Navy’s funding in various ways, including IDIPIC prevention panels, others have fortunately stepped in to help take care of the Navy’s own.

I’d like to take this opportunity to thank two groups that helped cover the costs of bringing our safety training to NASWI in May and July: Oak Harbor Navy League and the Officers’s Spouses’ Club of Whidbey Island.

They are two of many Partners in Prevention helping IDIPIC in its mission to deter driving under the influence and underage drinking in our communities.

Also a very big thank you to Island Thrift for matching all donations IDIPIC raises during our KISS safety campaign — Keep It a Safe Summer — during the 100 Deadly Days of Summer, Memorial Day to Labor Day. IDIPIC has already raised $4,400 thanks to so many caring businesses, organizations and individuals.

Donations, whether memorial or general as noted on IDIPIC’s web site, can be sent to IDIPIC, POB 358, Oak Harbor.

Jet noise annoying, but vital to island Editor, “What? . . . Can you hear me? . . .

Hello?”

This was how my telephone conversation with a client went on Monday afternoon. The jets seemed to be following me around like the rain cloud followed Eeyore.

At first it’s embarrassing, like I run my business out of some kind of funhouse.

Then it’s irritating, because the interruptions cause my two-minute conversation to take three times as long. Then, however, I sigh, because if it were not for the base, the people and the airplanes, I would not have this client.

planes, which keep interrupting us, are the reason why we ended up on the phone together. As embarrassing or irritating as they are, I cannot imagine life without them here.

We can try to convince ourselves that tourists provide enough business to keep our economy afloat, but that would be dishonest.

Without the military families and the people who visit them from around the world, we would be a dwindling speck on a map.

We would barely have enough people to staff our businesses, much less keep them profitable.

They would fade away like the fog over Deception Pass on a hot summer morning.

Until one day our local economy completely evaporates.

All of our property values plummet and the rich and unconcerned snag it up to create “The Hamptons II” in the Pacific Northwest.

They will be unimpressed by our cows, horses, chickens or food crops.

What is left of our local eateries will be too smelly, sticky and uncivilized.

Soon, the smell of these rural “smallities” will become a nuisance to this new population. They will use their inexhaustible

resources to zone these things out the way we are trying to zone out the noise.

What will be left from the battle we’re fighting today?

Nothing but grand houses with beautiful views that we used to enjoy over ice-cold pitchers of beer.

She moved on to become the assistant chief PBX operator at the Bank of America headquarters in Los Angeles.

Velma experienced trouble with her control system and called for a repair technician and a young, rookie repairman showed up.

Fall high school athletes welcome 3 new coaches

By JIM WALLER Sports editor

Oak Harbor and Coupeville high school athletes will be greeted by new coaches in three sports this fall.

Crista Carlson is the new cheer coach at Oak Harbor High School, and at Coupeville, Troy Cowan heads up the soccer program and Kirsty Croghan now leads the volleyball team.

Crista Carlson Taking over a highly successful program can be intimidating to some, but Carlson, the new Oak Harbor High School cheer coach, sees it as an honor.

Pam Headridge built the Wildcat cheer squad into a state power, then Robin Gohn continued the excellence.

Now it is Carlson’s turn.

Carlson, a 2007 graduate of La Conner High School, cheered for the Braves for four years and was team captain for two. She has coached at La Conner for six years, including last year when she began teaching special education at Oak Harbor Middle School.

With a teaching job in Oak Harbor and an opening in one of Washington’s premier programs, Carlson left her alma mater to help with the Wildcats.

“I really look up to Pam,” Carlson said, “and I have had the opportunity to work with both Pam and Robin.”

“Everyone wants to coach in Oak Harbor; they would be crazy not to,” she said. “It is an honor, and I am excited to follow Pam and Robin.”

Carlson said she will not mess with an already winning formula, but the team will have her stamp on it.

“I am not them (Pam and Robin); I don’t want to be them,” Carlson said. “We will have our own style.”

She said, for example, she would like to do more with the young cheerleaders in the community: “The young kids look up to the older kids, and I want to take advantage of that platform.”

The team has always been active in the city, and Carlson wants to continue that trend: “Cheerleaders are often the most visible (high school) team in the community, and it is our responsibility to represent the high school and do what we can for the community which does so much for us.”

With those objectives in mind, the squad attended a summer camp at Central Washington University July 29 to Aug. 2 that taught both cheer and leadership.

“We are trying to build character skills,” she said.

Oak Harbor won a spirit stick at camp, and two Wildcats, junior Juliet Aspery and freshman Sarah Bellis, earned all-America nominations.

Troy Cowan Cowan’s trip to becoming the head coach of the Coupeville High School girls soccer program followed an unusual route.

Most coaches compete in their sport as youngsters and on through high school, and some continue in college. Eventually they slide to the sidelines to guide others.

Cowan didn’t play while growing up in Riddle, Ore., though he did kick the ball around a bit in pickup games during his days in the Navy.

He fell in love with the sport as his children did.

He said, “I was never one of those parents who just wanted to sit around; I wanted to get involved.”

Cowan said all six of his children wanted to play, so when they first signed up, he volunteered to coach.

He has been heavily involved in island soccer since, a span of 15 years.

The youngest, Aiden, is continuing the trend. He is 6 and has already played four seasons.

Troy Cowan coached recreational soccer for about 10 years and has been the U15 girls select coach for the Islanders the past four. The team includes his daughter, Bailee. He is currently Director of Academy for the North Whidbey Soccer Club and has served as vice president for the Whidbey Island Youth Soccer Association.

Cowan retired from the Navy in 2008 and recently earned his masters in education in June and would like to teach high school English.

Coaching a high school sport, he said, ties in nicely with his career goals. When the Coupeville coaching job opened up, he applied.

Through work with the Islanders, Cowan said he is “familiar with some of the Lady Wolves and their parents.”

He said his goal is

Coupeville mustered only one win in each of the past two seasons, and never more than four in the past four.

The goal, he said, is to make Coupeville “a little more competitive,” and he has some “training ideas” he believes will help make that happen.

“I am hoping to implement a new formation and some new strategies that will make a difference in the game,” he said.

He added, “We need to work on improving our touch.”

This summer Cowan ran a voluntary running and conditioning program.

He said, “It is important to be in shape when you start. You can’t win if you can’t breathe.”

He said that his philosophy is “if they give 100 percent, regardless of the score, they are winners.”

Cowan said he is trying to send a “positive vibe” about the program and get a large turnout.

A strong nucleus returns from last year’s squad, he said, and that group will be a good foundation to build around.

Kirsty Croghan Croghan, a 2006 Coupeville High School graduate, always knew she would come back.

This fall she returns to lead the Wolves’ volleyball program.

“I love the island,” Croghan said.

“Who wouldn’t want to come back and have the opportunity to coach and be a part of the program that meant so much to them? It’s an honor and a privilege to coach at Coupeville High School.”

She added, “The first day of summer practice in the high school gym was awesome. It was like going back to high school volleyball. It is nice to be back.”

Croghan will replace her high

school coach, Toni Crebbin, who stepped down last season after 20 years of coaching.

Croghan played volleyball at Skagit Valley College for two years and then went directly to coaching.

She began her coaching career at LaVenture Middle School in Mount Vernon, moved to Anacortes Middle School and then to La Conner High school where she was the junior varsity coach and varsity assistant for three seasons.

She also coached club volleyball in Anacortes and La Conner.

With school and club volleyball, Croghan has coached year round for the past three years: “If you can’t tell yet, volleyball is my life and my passion.”

She said she went into coaching because she is “super passionate about not only coaching volleyball but teaching young ladies that anything is possible if they just believe in themselves.”

She added, “I may be young, but I have had the opportunity to learn from some of the greatest coaches in the business and have learned that coaching is so much more than coaching. I get to do two things I love; it really is the perfect job.”

Croghan said her goal for Coupeville is “to do the best we can.”

“This translates to wanting to make it back to state again,” she said. “It is going to take a lot of hard work and time. We may not make it right away, but I believe in having very high goals and expectations of the girls. When they achieve something they never thought was possible, it is life changing for them.”

She said the season will be a success if her players work hard and enjoy the experience.

CHAMBERS CONTINUED FROM A1 and it’s unfortunate. We just want to let the Navy know we are not just sitting quietly.”

Residents on both sides of the debate should continue to support all local businesses and put politics aside, she said.

The Navy suspended touch-and-go operations at OLF in June, but didn’t cite the reason.

The outcome of the federal lawsuit is pending. The group is asking a judge to compel the Navy to initiate a new environmental impact study in relation to the jet noise.

Chuck Poust, owner of Windjammer

Gallery on Front Street and president of the Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association, or CHWA, said any calls for boycotts in Coupeville should be ignored.

“We’re here, as we’ve always been here,” Poust said. “Lots of Navy families visit us and we welcome them.”

“We can’t afford to alienate anyone,” said Marcia Johnson, owner of Kneed and Feed Restaurant in Coupeville, CHWA member and wife of Cmdr. Vincent Johnson, a Navy pilot who is currently deployed.

Eccles said she and Oak Harbor Chamber Executive Director Kathy Reed are in the

UNITED CONTINUED FROM A1 all wore shirts with “I Heart Jet Noise” in front and “Sound of Freedom” on the back.

A resolution proposed

by Dudley stressing the economic importance of the base was passed unanimously by the council.

Councilwoman Tara Hizon was absent due to illness.

THE RESOLUTION states that the base “contributes $409 million directly to the Island County economy in wages paid to military personnel, which is 44 percent of all county wages, not including the civilians it employs.”

The resolution also states that veterans and active duty members of the Navy are “vital to the social fabric of Oak Harbor” and that training is vital to the Navy’s mission.

DUDLEY PROPOSED the resolution in support of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station and its training activ-

ities in response to complaints and a lawsuit filed by some Central Whidbey residents over noise produced by the Navy’s new EA-18G Growler during touch-andgo operations at Outlying Field Coupeville.

Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve for a Healthy, Safe and Peaceful Environment filed a federal lawsuit this summer, asking for a new environmental impact study be conducted by the Navy.

In response to the lawsuit, pro-OLF support has included rallies in Oak Harbor and Coupeville with more planned this weekend.

OAK HARBOR resident Shane Hoffmire, who regularly attends council meetings, said he strongly supports the resolution. He also announced he is no longer the chairman of the Whidbey Island Democratic Club because of a disagreement with other members over the issue.

“I know the noise generated by these beautiful planes is often referred to as ‘the sound of freedom,’ but to my family and me it is simply the sound of home,” he told the council.

HOFFMIRE SAID during an interview that he feels strongly the Democratic Club should take a stand on the issue.

When other members disagreed, he proposed a proclamation that simply explains that the club isn’t taking a stand because the majority of members don’t feel it’s a political dispute and not in the best interests of the club to take a side.

When the proclamation failed to pass during a special meeting, Hoffmire said he quit in protest.

“People have lines they will draw in the sand,” he said. “This is an issue I had to draw a line in the concrete on.”

Marj McNae, a member of the Democratic club, said in an interview that everyone in the club is very supportive of the Navy, but board members thought it wasn’t appropriate to delve

process of joining forces to ensure that the OLF debate does not impact the business community.

The two are planning to meet in the coming weeks to develop a strategy that addresses divisiveness that may damage local businesses.

Reed spearheaded the “Jets equals Jobs” campaign which aims to remind residents of the economic impact the base has on North Whidbey Island.

Reed said she observed boycott discussions online and believes that some may misunderstand the “Jets equals Jobs” message.

“The chamber is not calling for a boycott at all,” Reed said.

“That’s not what we’re about. I think some people are confused.”

Reed said she fears that animosity between

the two sides of the issue may hurt the island community and its businesses.

“I don’t want to see the whole issue divide us any further,” Reed said.

“We’re all Whidbey Island.”

Meanwhile, Eccles said the Coupeville chamber is designing posters with a proNavy, pro-business message that will be made available for owners to display in storefront windows.

Eccles said she hopes the campaign will remind people to think in terms of their community.

Meanwhile, Reed said the “Jets = Jobs” signs are “flying out the door.”

To recoup the manufacturing cost, the Oak Harbor Chamber is accepting donations and will continue to sell “Jets equals Jobs” items including hats and T-shirts.

into an issue that’s nonpolitical, non-partisan and divisive.

McNae said members are sad Hoffmire quit. She lives in the Navy flight path and plans to personally write a letter in support of training missions.

Two people spoke in opposition to the city council’s resolution, but the pair of naysayers made their points boldly.

North Whidbey resident Garrett Newkirk complained about the constant airplane noise over his 500-acre family farm in Dugualla Bay. He claimed the noise has stripped all the value from the property his family has owned since before the Navy arrived on Whidbey Island.

Newkirk said he believes community leaders are willing to sacrifice his family’s well-being for “ill-gotten gains.”

Wendy Campbell DeWinter called the resolution “an extremely superficial document” and chided the council for not researching the issue properly.

“I’m extremely disappointed by what seems to be a knee-jerk reaction by the mayor and the City Council,” she said.

Submitted photo

Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley, in the center, and members of the Oak Harbor City Council wore T-shirts in support of Navy jet noise.

THREE AUDIENCE members — including Hoffmire — and all the council members spoke in support of the resolution.

Councilman Rick Almberg said he understands what the jet noise is like, provoking someone in the audience to call him a liar.

Unfazed, Almberg added that the civilians’ role is to support the military during a time of war.

Councilman Danny Paggao, a Navy veteran, called the base the “economic lifeline” for the island and stressed the importance of training.

Councilman Jim Campbell echoed the sentiments, but interrupted

himself to briefly confront Newkirk from behind the dais; Campbell evidently felt Newkirk was acting inappropriately in the audience.

COUNCILMAN JOEL Servatius said he strongly supports the base and took part in the pro-OLF demonstrations.

Still, he admitted he doesn’t really love jet noise and admitted he struggled with the decision to wear the T-shirt. He said the noise is a byproduct of living near the base and that the sheer economic benefits of the base are undeniable.

“We want to build community, not divide it.”

A look at 9 sacred pathways people relate to God FAITHFUL LIVING

By JOAN BAY KLOPE

One of my all-time favorite books is Sarah Ban Breathnach’s megabestseller, “Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort and Joy.” I’ve been reading it since 1997 and I eagerly open it when some additional joy is needed in my life.

Breathnach’s 12 monthly plans do just that. August, Breathnach says, is a time to refill our creative energies.

Acknowledging and honoring our authentic gifts is not only a personal joy but a responsibility, for our own creativeness can help to transform the lives of those we love. Reading, she suggests, is a great way to refill, especially on a hot day when sitting in the shade with a cold drink.

I’ve taken this suggestion to heart and am reading a book called, “Sacred Pathways,” written by Pacific Northwest native Gary Thomas. He says there are distinctive and identifiable ways people relate to God. By identifying our own we can draw nearer to God and each other.

Using biblical figures, historical church movements and various personality temperaments, Thomas has developed nine sacred pathways and here they are: • Naturalists love God out of doors. They would much rather pray by a stream, walk a beach, or backpack near Mount Baker. They believe that nature clearly proclaims how great God is and when reading the Bible they strongly relate to the parables Christ used based on nature.

• Sensates love God with their senses. They are drawn to the liturgical, the majestic, the grand. Incense, intricate architecture, classical music, and formal language send their hearts soaring.

• Traditionalists love God through ritual and symbol.

They are fed by historic dimensions of faith: rituals, symbols, sacraments, and sacrifice. These Christians tend to have a disciplined life of faith.

• Ascetics love God in solitude and simplicity. They want nothing more than to be left alone in prayer. Let there be nothing to distract them — no pictures, no loud music — and leave them alone to live in silence and simplicity.

• Activists love God through confrontation. They often view the church as a place to recharge their batteries so they can go back into the world to wage war against injustice. They are energized by interaction with others, even in conflict.

• Caregivers love God by loving others. They serve God by serving others. Often claiming to see Christ in those with great needs, their faith is built up by interacting with other people.

• Enthusiasts love God with mystery and celebration.

They are cheerleaders for God and the Christian life. They don’t want to just know concepts, but to experience them, to feel them, and to be moved by them.

• Contemplatives love God through adoration. They seek to love God with the purest, deepest and brightest love imaginable.

• Intellectuals love God with their minds. They might be skeptics or committed believers, but in either case they are likely to be studying doctrines, issues, or concepts.

There is a whole lot more to say about sacred pathways to God, so drop by again next week. In the meantime, consider the way or ways you are most comfortable interacting with God.

Scott Fraser, organizer of the Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast, holds fond memories of the event’s first five years.

OH’s party of the year Fidalgo Avenue event grows in popularity every year of existence

By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter

A block up from historic downtown Oak Harbor’s main thoroughfare is Scott Fraser’s restaurant.

Frasers Gourmet Hideway is tucked away, indeed.

More visible in these parts is the man behind the restaurant and the handlebar mustache. Fraser is popular these days.

It’s August, and in downtown Oak Harbor, that means it’s “Pig Roast” time, a tradition Fraser established in 2008, a year after he opened his restaurant on Fidalgo Avenue.

What started out as Fraser’s thank you gesture to the community has grown into a much anticipated, highly involved downtown event.

The sixth annual Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast is expected to draw several thousand people. The event runs from noon-5 p.m.

Sunday, Aug. 11.

Roughly 2,200 pounds of pork will be cooked for the

Free pig roast n The sixth annual Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast is Sunday, Aug. 11, in Oak Harbor from noon-5 p.m. The event features a free barbecue lunch for the community. Last year, the event drew an estimated 4,000 people.

free barbecue lunch.

That’s the same amount cooked last year, or quadruple the amount that was served the first year.

“The very first year I wanted to say thank you to the community,” Fraser said. “I went around and got our local people to throw this block party. Everyone just jumped on board. It was an incredible event from the very first year.

We actually had 1,500 people show up and cooked 500 pounds of pork and we ran out in a hurry.”

The event has grown every year with 4,000 people attending last year with more than a ton of pork provided.

Sponsorship has grown as well, covering essential costs so that money raised through donations during the block party all goes to designated charities.

Last year, the event raised $12,000 for Fidalgo Avenue area nonprofits with half going to the North Whidbey Help House, a food bank located on Hathaway Street.

Fraser said generous support from the local business community has made this possible.

He said without Island Thrift’s contributions, the event “probably couldn’t happen.”

Fraser said other sponsors include Alaska USA Mortgage Company, Cascade Custom Homes, Boeing, Guild Mortgage, Les Schwab, Stewart Title Company, New Leaf, P & L General Contractors, Puget Sound Energy, Ace Hardware, Whidbey Island Bank and Windermere Realty.

He said another contributor is Saar’s Market Place Food, which donates 900 ears of corn.

Then, there is an army of volunteers.

“We have about 200 volunteers come in,” Fraser said.

“They all donate their time.

There’s no one on the payroll.

No one in the community is paid or anything like that.

Anything that we take in is given out after our costs.”

The Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast will fea-

ture live music from the Still Bill Band and Broken Banjo, fiery street performances from Marcus Raymond and Luke Boyce, a rock climbing wall and Bouncy House for kids and beer and wine garden for adults.

Raymond, who recently moved to Oak Harbor, is a longtime professional entertainer who juggles, cracks jokes and adds fire to his act.

Boyce, from Leavenworth, is better known as L-Bow the Clown. He rides a unicycle, juggles and blows fire.

Balloon animals and face painting also will be available.

There also will be professional and amateur barbecue competitions and a gold panning demonstration.

Oak Harbor’s Roger Anglum, an event organizer who’s taking a break from the professional barbecue competition, said the 2,200 pounds of pork prepared last year met demand so they’re cooking the same amount this year.

“If we go through all that pork this year it’s going to be a lot of trouble keeping up with it in future years,” he said. “With the weather getting nice, this event is getting bigger and bigger. We’ll draw close to 5,000 people. We have a lot of fun.”

Sound announces Nickel pubs moving into papers Beginning in September, Sound Publishing, Inc. will combine the strength of its community newspaper readership and home delivery with the respected classified content and brand recognition of its Little Nickel products.

Little Nickel’s advertising will be delivered within the pages of the community newspaper products.

“Our Nickel advertising clients will certainly see benefit of having their advertising message delivered directly to homes. And our readers will no longer have to remember to pick up a Little Nickel at a rack. This change just makes sense,” said Gloria Fletcher, president of Sound Publishing.

Little Nickel rack distribution will be eliminated.

Sound Publishing has established five zones in King, Snohomish and Kitsap counties to give people a range of options for advertising. Each zone has a circulation between 50,000 and 80,000.

Advertisers will be able to place ads in any or all zones and/or in individual Sound Publishing newspapers. On Whidbey Island, Sound Publishing publishes the Whidbey News-Times, South Whidbey Record, The Whidbey Examiner and The Crosswind.

The Little Nickel offices in Everett, Tacoma and Portland will be closed.

Many Little Nickel employees will be retained and will move into other Sound Publishing offices throughout the Puget Sound area.

HAPPENINGS CONTINUED FROM A1 n On Sunday, Aug. 11, the smell of smoked pork will be in the air around downtown Oak Harbor as the sixth annual Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast will be taking place from noon until 5 p.m.

The event features a free barbecue lunch, live music, entertainment and activities for children.

Cooks will prepare 2,200 pounds of pork for the event, which drew 4,000 people last year. n Coupeville is hosting its annual Arts and Crafts Festival both days this weekend.

Hours run 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. today and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday in downtown Coupeville. n Also in Coupeville this weekend, the second

new planner CONTINUED FROM A1 his career path from psychology to planning because of his other interest, natural resources.

“That’s what drove me to (planning),” Wechner said.

“I’m a generalist by nature.

Planning involves environmental, economic and social

factors. That all-encompassing approach appealed to me.”

However, Wechner said he’s found that his psychology degree is handy when communicating with staff and leadership.

“I can talk to people, and

annual Race the Reserve half marathon takes off from Mickey Clark Field behind Coupeville Elementary Field at 8:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 10.

The event also includes 10K and 5K races; those begin at 9 a.m. Race the Reserve is a fundraiser organized by the Coupeville High School class of 2014 parents. n A celebration of everything Scottish takes place during the Whidbey Island Highland Games today at Greenbank Farm. The one-day event features

athletic competitions, highland dancers, bagpipers, food, music and more.

Cost for the Highland Games is $10 for adults and $7 for seniors, military and students.

Children under 4 years old are free. n Also Saturday, Meerkerk Gardens, located just south of Greenbank, will offer an afternoon of Bluegrass starting 11 a.m. with the last band scheduled to perform at 3 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults. Kids are free.

listen,” Wechner said.

One of major challenges for the county Planning Department has been staff turnover and competing with other jurisdictions for good employees, according to Wechner.

The department saw some unrest in recent years as Pederson initiated several major projects and led the department amid some unprecedented budget cuts.

In addition, Pederson left the job with the department embroiled in a lawsuit involving Commissioner Kelly Emerson and her husband Ken over a building project at the couple’s Camano Island home.

A settlement was reached in July that absolved the Emersons of nearly all of their original $37,000 fine.

Island County returned $2,000 in filing fees to the Emersons and, in return, the couple agreed to pay $5,000.

Wechner said he hopes his “open door” management style will encourage and support his staff, creating a environment that encourages longer tenures with the department.

“There’s a lot of good people working here,” Wechner said. “They’re the resource you really base your department on. If you’ve got constant turnover — and we’ve

had a lot — the goal is to approach each project with fairness, consistency and impartiality. I want to hear from the staff who work with this code every day.

“Their input will be invaluable in making improvements.”

Working within the finite space of an island is also a new challenge for Wechner.

“Your options are fewer, how you’re going to provide services, the aquifers are limited,” Wechner said. “I think the expectations are different (on an island). It funnels the developmental impacts for those people who live along State Highway 20.”

To mitigate the island’s challenges, Mechner said he hopes to provide information to the island’s growing population while trying to provide quick turnaround times.

“Of course, vying to provide excellent service is limited by resources,” Wechner said.

Moving forward Wechner plans to evaluate the county’s permit processes, procedures and working with staff on developing solutions to increase efficiency and efficacy.

He is also interested in meeting with interest groups who represent citizens-atlarge, developers and businesses to discuss community planning needs.

He hopes to initiate improvements via technology to streamline access to land use information for Island County residents and landowners, allowing planners to focus on reviewing permits and making other upgrades.

A seasoned Northwesterner, Wechner said he’s looking forward to enjoying the island climate, despite it’s somewhat unpredictable nature.

“I’ve lived in the Northwest,” Wechner said.

“I’m used to it. I’m happy to be here.”

“I enjoy Whidbey Island,” he said.
