Off course on the road to recovery By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

One of four orcas missing and presumed dead, J-8, an 80-year-old female, also known as Spieden, makes a big splash in the waters off of San Juan Island in 2011.

What only a few short years ago appeared to be an upswing in the population now seems like fleeting good fortune in the up-again, downagain saga of the Southern Resident killer whales. With four members missing and presumed dead, the population has fallen to 80 animals, according to the Center for Whale Research. The population totaled 88 in 2010. Center Director Ken Balcomb, citing this year’s dismal return of Chinook salmon to the Fraser River, maintains a combination of dwindling food supply and toxic materials accumulated in the blubber of the whales is largely to blame for the latest disappearances and drop in numbers. Without enough prey to satisfy nutritional needs, Balcomb said whales draw on blubber for fuel and that toxins are then released into their circulatory system in highly concentrated levels. “All whales use blubber as sort of a freezer storage area,” he said. “The PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) go from parts per billion to parts per million when they start drawing on the bank account of blubber and just like in humans it affects the immune system, the nervous system, the reproductive system. It’s what happens when you have bad years for fish.” The center, which maintains a census of the Southern Resident killer whales for the National Marine Fisheries Service, will list three whales missing in its 2013 survey, all from L-pod. The three are: L-2, a female, estimated age of 53, L-26 a female, estimated age of 57, and L-79 a male born in 1989. The census does not include J-8, a female whose age the Center estimates at 80, and which appears to be See RECOVERY, Page 4

AirLift NW opts out of ‘reciprocal’ payments Cooperative program dropped in tug-of-war over emergency air tranport in San Juans By Steve Wehrly Journal reporter

Cooperation between the two providers of emergency medical transport in San Juan County has become more difficult as of late. Airlift Northwest, the UW-affiliated emergency medical transport system that uses helicopters to transport critical-care patients directly to Seattle and Bellingham hospitals, announced it has terminated participation in the reciprocal payment program of the Association of Air Medical Membership Programs. Airlift Northwest will instead negotiate payment plans directly with emergency transport providers, though apparently not with San Juan Island EMS Medevac. The practical effect in San Juan County will actually be minimal. Although a reciprocal payment program is designed to provide payment of “out-of-pocket” costs by one service provider to another, in fact neither Airlift Northwest nor EMS Medevac attempts to collect “out-of-pocket expenses” from Airlift Northwest members or from San Juan Island Hospital District residents. A resident of San Juan County is not billed for out-of-pocket expenses by the EMS Medevac program no matter who does the transporting, EMS Chief Jim Cole said. All billing by EMS is “zero-balance” and, according to Jim Cole: EMS Medevac would not seek payment by Airlift Northwest in any event. Airlift Northwest claims the change became necessary partly as a result of increased utilization by the fixed-wing EMS Island Air Ambulance service and reduced utilization of Airlift Northwest helicopter services by San Juan Island EMS. Airlift Northwest believes that continued participation in the reciprocal payment plan would blur the differences in training, equip-

In 2011, Martin says, Airlift Northwest completed 552 missions to the county; in 2012, the number decreased to 370; so far in 2013, the number is 287. Martin believes the utilization reduction cannot be explained simply by the new emergency services provided by PeaceIsland Medical Center, but rather is the result of decisions made by San Juan Island EMS. Cole disputes Martin's interpretation. “All medical emergency transportation decisions are made on the basis of what’s best for the patient,” he said.

shrinkage of tissues around head -- commonly referred to as “peanut head” -- over the past two years, according to the center’s Erin Heydenreich, senior research assistant. The Southern Residents consist of three pods, J, K and L. Called “residents” because they spend a majority of the year in the waters of the Salish Sea, the Southern Residents are considered endangered by the U.S. and Canada. Their population, believed to have been historically in the high 100s, was decimated by captures for marine parks, which ended in the 1970s, followed by pollution and declining salmon populations. The whales population plummeted to 71 by 1973, climbed to 99 in 1995, then plummeted to 79 six years later. The population rebounded to 80 in 2002, 83 in 2003, 89 in 2005, and has seesawed around 88 since then. The whales were declared endangered by the U.S. and Canada by 2005. Some orca advocates insist there’s greater concern for the long-term health of the population than just the decline in overall headcount. Based on a study of the center’s survey, Orca Relief Citizens’ Alliance cites a sharp decline in the number of breeding-age females and males, down 24 percent since 2004, and 26 percent since 2009, respectively. However, the next generation of breeding females, 3-15 years of age, has fallen even faster, down 39 percent since 2000, according to Orca Relief. “Our new analysis suggests that the greatest danger to the population is much more serious than indicated by total headcount, as the breeding female population, today and tomorrow, plunges at an alarming rate,” Orca Relief Executive Director Bruce Stedman said in a press release. “We are concerned that if additional protective steps are not taken very soon it could be too late for Puget Sound’s resident Orca.” Orcas Relief notes that the number of juvenile males has

increased 66 percent since 2009. Faced with dwindling salmon runs, Orca Relief maintains the quickest remedy for the Southern Residents would be the creation of a protection zone off the west side of San Juan Island, in which boats would be prohibited. Such a zone would provide the whales with a buffer from whalewatch boats and safe haven where they might rest and hunt more efficiently. Meanwhile, Balcomb believes the answer to whales survival is simple, even if the equation is complicated: more fish. “If we could keep lots of fish out there, even if they’re toxic, we wouldn’t have this problem with the Southern Residents heading down this road to extinction,” he said. “It would take some adjustments in lifestyles, but we’re humans, we can fix it, it can be done.” I want to help keep this island a great place to live. After thirty-three years of public service on San Juan Island, I’m not ready to stop. My EMS related background includes being a volunteer firefighter, fire chief and fire commissioner. My hospital related background includes a career in public health with job descriptions of epidemiologist, public health advisor and health educator. I also enjoyed the eight years I spent working for our community on the County Board of Health. J: Explain your thoughts about fixed-wing EMS ambulance service and its possible expansion through a countywide insurance program? Rosenfeld: I’m very much in favor of the MedEvac services being offered and expanded (EMS tax levy funds are not used for this service) but the public is having some difficulty understanding it. I’ll try: Every household needs to have membership(s) to be protected from out-of-pocket charges. District residents are automatically protected if medevaced by Island Air Ambulance, whether or not they have a membership or insurance. But because there is no guarantee you will be medevaced by the Air Ambulance, you need to be protected in case you go by helicopter. The patient’s need and weather conditions will determine which transport will be used. Other transport resources

for us include ferry, Coast Guard, sheriff ’s boat and more. Air Care (Airlift NW) membership and MedEvac Membership (Island Air Ambulance) were reported to be reciprocal. Then reported they are not. The Hospital District needs to clear this up. The expanded service being offered allows nondistrict residents, people on the other islands, temporary residents, visitors, etc. to purchase memberships. This allows everyone frequenting the San Juans to be covered for air ambulance in a medevac emergency, making the islands even more visitor friendly. J: In light of concerns about costs, services and policies, what role should the hospital commission play in the operation and administration of Peace Island Medical Center? Rosenfeld: I support women’s reproductive services. I support the AG Opinion that facilities providing maternity care must provide the full range of women’s reproductive health services. My position is the Hospital District has a responsibility to see that these services, needed by the community, are provided. I support end of life services including Death With Dignity. Patients need to be assured their health directives will be honored and access to end of life services See CANDIDATES, Page 5

I support affordable health care. Costs for basic medical care locally continue to increase. This is a major concern important to all of us. I support our Emergency Medical Service (EMS). I’m a former first responder that believes our EMS is one of the best in the country and I want to keep it that way. We’ve got a great EMS and Hospital. I want to work with Peace Health, their local hospital board and the County Board of Health to ensure the best, affordable medical care for our community.

SJI Hospital District Commission candidate: Mark Schwinge

Journal: What purpose does the hospital commission serve? Schwinge: Per RCW 70.44, the Public Hospital District (PHD) No. 1 board’s responsibilities include overseeing the hospital district’s policies and organization, and San Juan Island EMS/Medevac. Each has its own levy. Peace Island Medical Center (PIMC) reports twice yearly to the PHD board, which monitors how PIMC spends its tax levy for local charity care, emergency services, and physician services.

150 customer-owned, locally controlled utilities in the Western U.S. and Canada, plus nearly 300 associate members allied with the electric utility industry. The 2013 Excellence in Communication awards received 176 entries from 40 utility and associate members. Receiving the awards, OPALCO Communication Specialist Suzanne Olson thanked Tif and Gif Creative of Friday Harbor, who designed the 2012 Annual Report and created the 75th Anniversary icon. Olson also recognized Touchstone Energy Cooperative, who made creation of high-quality branded items for OPALCO members possible. The 2012 Annual Report, which is also OPALCO’s 75th Anniversary publiAt PHD meetings, commissioners address public comments and concerns. The PHD provides islandappropriate community health care needs as its budget allows. J: Why do you want to be a hospital district commissioner? Schwinge: I am running for three reasons: to serve our community; to support its health care system; and to advance our EMS and its air ambulance system. Many of us seek to help others, to make a difference in this broken world. I offer relevant experience, professional ethics, motivation, and a skill set suited to meet the challenges. J: Explain your thoughts about fixed-wing EMS ambulance service and its possible expansion through a countywide insurance program? Schwinge: Currently PHD residents receive, as a benefit of their district taxes, ground and air ambulance transportation with no outof-pocket expenses. Island Air Ambulance’s MedEvac Membership (not insurance) program provides other county residents and visitors medically necessary air medical transportation to mainland hospitals, with no out-of-pocket expenses. The MedEvac Membership program likely will increase our air ambulance’s utilization, and benefit judicious expansion. Our county’s Island Air Ambulance program, accredited by the same organization as Airlift NW, for years has used a capable Cessna 207. But like the helicopter, our plane can-

cation, is available online at www.opalco.com/history/. 75th Anniversary commemorative calendars are available at OPALCO offices; 2014 replacement pages will be available in December.

Port mulls legal action over fire insurance claim

The fire insurance report and claim settlement for repair or replacement of the Spring Street Landing building has moved to the “potential litigation” stage for discussion at the Port Commission, and the commission began the process to have some or all of the building demolished. Meeting in executive session before a Oct. 23 commission meeting, the com-

not operate into known icing conditions aloft. To serve our county in a broader range of weather, we need to acquire a turboprop air ambulance. In a single stroke, this action will expand our ability to meet countywide critical care air transport needs. We must accomplish this in a fiscally responsible manner. J: In light of concerns about costs, services and policies, what role should the hospital commission play in the operation and administration of Peace Island Medical Center? Schwinge: Responsibility for operation of PIMC properly belongs to its own administration; they consult with PIMC medical staff to select clinical services. But the PHD board can and should be a conduit for public comment regarding services not presently available, and communicate to the PIMC board the public’s interests and desires. Realistically, patient safety and treatment costs will limit local services unless other funding can be found. The PHD board may have opportunity to support additional clinical services apart from PIMC if the public approves additional levies, or if secular interests raise money to establish and operate a specialized clinic, for example, a maternity services office, possibly under the aegis of our PHD. Wide public support for any tax increase would be needed. Meanwhile, referral to mainland providers for services with low patient demand makes sense. PIMC limits only elective

mission and Port Director Marilyn O’Connor discussed with port attorney Frank Chmelik preliminary reports of what port insurer Enduris Washington and excess insurance carrier Lexington Insurance Co. would pay on fire insurance claims for the building on the Friday harbor waterfront that housed Downriggers Restaurant and three marine businesses.

She also stated that no decision had been made on rebuilding or replacing Spring Street Landing, although Commissioner Ahrenius has stated his preference for replacement. abortions and life-ending prescriptions. Birth control pills and devices are available. Resident expectant mothers will continue to receive personal clinical support from visiting specialists.

Enchanted by show of goodwill

A special thank you to the couple who relinquished their SJCT seats, in the second row, to us prior to the Oct. 12 Saturday evening performance of Roy and daughter, Karen, Matsumoto’s documentary of Roy’s life (“Honor & Sacrifice”. Somehow the Gubelman Room was overbooked. We had plans for the following day’s performance time. These islanders made the evening just that much more significant, supporting the practice islanders are here for one another. What goes around comes around. ROZ CASAD San Juan Island

position on the Public Hospital District Board who have stepped up to help, I hope everyone does his or her part in this election by participating in the voting process. My extensive background in public health, local government, and as a volunteer first-responder makes me eminently qualified. Plus, and perhaps most important: I care. HOWARD “HOWIE” ROSENFELD Friday Harbor

Can the chaos; say ‘No’ to Prop. 1

If you like the chaos and confusion of our frequent changes of government in the last several years, vote to approve Proposition 1. If you don’t think that’s a good way to run the county, vote to reject it. LOUISE DUSTRUDE Friday Harbor

Record ignored in Of ‘Big Brother’ call to withdraw & ballot barcodes In response to the recent letter to the editor titled “Both candidates should withdraw,” (Oct. 23, pg. 6) , I find it incredibly unfortunate that any one should feel this way. When I began my public health career in 1963 I adopted the WHO definition of health: ‘Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity’. Our small community relies on volunteers who want to help keep it vibrant and healthy. Since I am one of two candidates for the open

Imagine for a moment that former members of the CIA, FBI, and NSA created a product that could monitor and track all our votes. Any reason you’d feel uneasy about that? The Mail-In Ballot Tracker story: It’s about a little barcode, unique to each voter, right there in the corner of your ballot. State officials will tell you that its only purpose is to follow your ballot through the voting process. The problem is: Who’s doing the tracking? Are they connecting the barcode with how you voted? And, are they using that

information to manipulate votes, create individual profiles, or something else? Officials will scream up and down that it’s impossible to connect barcodes and ballots. The system that connects the two is “encrypted.” Right. We’ve all learned recently how secure “encrypted” things are from inquiring eyes at the NSA. Eight years ago, a few of us filed suit to try to restore our secret ballot. And this summer, we won! That’s right, citizen activism pays off. Except we didn’t, really. The judge ruled that MiBT wasn’t properly tested and must therefore be dumped, but the issue of unique identifiers on ballots is still in the courts. So, this election, once again: barcodes on our ballots. Not only that, but one uncertified tracking system has apparently been replaced with another. There are other options, but we need your help. In 2007 the King County Council passed a motion banning unique identifiers on ballots. We’re hoping, with our new council and the momentum of this lawsuit behind us, we can reclaim the same protection for the residents of San Juan County. This election day, we will ask our county council to pass a similar motion. You can be there with us, in person or in spirit.

This would remove a prohibition on changing County Council districts by initiative. This restriction was originally placed in the proposed charter by the freeholders, and passed by voters in 2005.

The Journal endorses...

Stability at stake in outcome of Prop.1

ats off to all the candidates who’ve tossed their hat into the ring this election season. It takes courage and conviction to step out into the spotlight and announce to friends, neighbors or a room full of strangers: “This is who I am, this is what I believe, I would like your vote.” After the final tally from the Nov. 4 election is put to rest, voters will have elected a town councilman, hospital district commissioner and port commissioner. They will have decided the fate of a ballot measure that would allow county voting districts to be altered by initiative, and will have weighed in on a statewide initiative for labeling of genetically engineered food products. So, if you haven’t yet marked and sent in your ballot, we encouraged you to join in that most fundamental right of any democratic society: voting. If you’re still undecided about several local races, here’s our pick. Town council: Both candidates would be thoughtful and effective. But in large part because of his experience as former town planning commission chairman, the edge in this race goes to Farhad Ghatan, by a nose. Port commission: With the port facing replacement of the Spring Street Landing building and remodeling of the waterfront and bulkhead, the experience of an incumbent is paramount. Mike Ahrenius has our vote. Hospital commission: Both candidates have a good grasp of how the district operates and about the sticky debate surrounding patients’ rights and the district’s contract with PeaceHealth. At this time, however, we feel Howie Rosenfeld brings an “outsider’s” perspective that would greatly benefit both the board and the community. The edge goes to Rosenfeld.

Tampering with voting districts by initiative allows for too much chaos By Kevin Ranker / John Evans Special to the Journal

ast year, a majority of San Juan County’s citizens voted to make some important updates to our county charter. Specifically, we voted to create a full time, three member County Council that was elected countywide. This is critical as it ensures that those representing us prioritize our county’s success, instead of another job, and that they answer to all of us—instead of someone only elected by the residents of Friday Harbor, making the most important decisions for Eastsound. These changes came about after a year’s careful consideration and an exhaustive research and public process by the elected Charter Review Commission. On the CRC were Gordy Petersen, Maureen See, Mary Jean Cahail, Bill Watson, Robert Levinson, Ron Zee, Janice Peterson, James Stegall, Frank Penwell, Tom Starr, Bob Gamble, William Appel, Edwin Sutton, Ralph Gutschmidt, Moana Kutsche, Leonard Wood, Stephen Garrison, Madrona Murphy, Larry Hendel, Richard Kevin Ranker Ward and Barbara Thomas. The county charter was originally authored in 2004 after significant public process and thoughtful discussions by the elected board of freeholders. Serving as Freeholders were Jeri Ahrenius, David Bayley, Charlie Bodenstab, Jeffrey Bossler, Ed Carlberg, Walter Corbin, Lola Deane, Ryan Drum, Frederick Ellis, Richard Fralick, George Johnson, Mindy Kayl, Steve Ludwig, Stephanie O’Day, Gordy Peterson, Bob Querry, Gayle Rollins, Linda Tretheway, Greg Hertel and Gene Knapp.

There are two extremely important similarities between these two groups of San Juan County residents who have worked to make a better county government. First, they represent the diversity of conservatives and liberals, rich and poor, senior and young that is our county. Second, they prioritized the stability of our county government moving forward—not allowing major changes every time a new group of islanders gets vocal or loses an election. For this reason both groups proposed, and the voters strongly supported, allowJohn Evans ing the most important, major changes to how our government functions only every 10 years and only after a thoughtful, public discussion. Why is this so extremely important? The idea that we would allow the leadership of our county to bounce back and forth between being elected by small districts or countywide, or have six members or three members on an annual basis is not only extremely costly, it will create total dysfunction. This instability will be extremely harmful to our county’s ability to serve the public—from our roads or building department to public health. A diverse group of dozens of citizens on the CRC and freeholders spent months and months reviewing county government structures throughout the state for examples of what would work best for us and… they got it right. You cannot change the entire structure of how government functions every year. To do so is frankly crazy and will only cause incredible instability for our communities. The current thoughtful charter gives us remarkable flexibility to make all of the changes we want to, we simply make them thoughtfully and after careful research and consideration. Join us in strongly rejecting San Juan County Proposition 1. — Editor’s note: A member of the Republican party, John Evans of Orcas Island is a former three-term county commissioner. A Democrat, state Sen. Kevin Ranker, also of Orcas Island, is a former county commissioner and councilman.

Film Festival success? Takes a village Many deserve credit; 2014 to be even better By FH Film Festival's Lynn Danaher, Karen Palmer, Patricia Bolding Special to the Journal

The Friday Harbor Film Festival could not have enjoyed such great success without the generous support of our sponsors, enthusiastic dedication of our volunteers and all the community members of Friday Harbor who participated in the first annual Friday Harbor Film Festival. Thanks to all for extending such a warm welcome to our filmmakers and off island visitors, many who came to Friday Harbor for the first time. We had filmmakers travel from as far away as China and Hawaii to share their films and be available for Q & A. The comment cards were full of compliments about how friendly everyone was, how they loved our little town and felt very welcome. There were several great suggestions made as well; we are taking them to heart so we can improve our future event. Please let us know if you have any to add. info@fhff.org.

Some great statistics worth sharing: of the 1,100 tickets sold or given to volunteers or sponsors, 29.5 percent were from off island. Most of the screenings were approximately 66 percent full. We are already planning our 2014 event and have been contacted by filmmakers for submissions. We will be accepting submissions after Jan. 1, and will make screening decisions by mid-summer. This will allow us plenty of time to design our program in time for the San Juan County Fair. For those of you that ran out of time and were not able to see all the films you wanted to see, we will be designing a “how to fest” form, to maximize your opportunity to see all the films you want. We will be offering instruction during the fair how best to use the form. We had some participants see

as many as 18 films and several in the 14-15 films range. Also, for those who missed a film or want to see it again, we will be hosting screenings of most of the films shown during our first annual Friday Harbor Film Festival, two times a month on Tuesday evenings at the Grange, starting in January. Watch for dates and announcements of films scheduled or go online to our web page; www.fhff.org/news/ and please sign up for our monthly newsletter. We wanted to offer a special thanksto our venues, SJ Community Theatre, Friday Harbor House and the Grange, plus to the leads and projectionists at each venue that made sure everything ran smoothly, Parin, Gene, John, Lynus, Ryan, Rob, Kirsten, Malcom and Ben. We appreciate all the hotels that hosted our filmmakers and visitors, the Town of Friday Harbor for giving us a parking allowance, Matt Pranger for documenting the entire event thru his lens and providing us with great professional photos, Roxanne Angel and Scott Rasmussen at the Journal for great coverage, all our online news sources for news and schedules, with special thanks to Sharon Kivisto.

Charles Franklin Hudson, Jr.: 1922—2013 Frank’s college days studying botany at the University of Pennsylvania were interrupted when he enlisted in the U.S. Army, following the outbreak of World War II. After basic training, Frank was assigned to the Army Corps of Engineers, selected for parachute training and Officer Candidate School, and finally for the Office of Strategic Services (a precursor to the CIA). Frank’s military service took him back to Asia, where he saw combat with the OSS in the China-Burma-India Theater, helping to train Chinese units and participating in Charles Franklin Hudson, Jr. reconnaissance missions and commando raids. Following the war, Frank left the Army as a First Lieutenant, returning to his university studies and completing a Masters in Botany at the University of Hawaii, Honolulu. In Hawaii, Frank was reunited with Sally Bloom and the two married in 1950; their deep mutual devotion over the years has been a great gift not only to each other but also to their children and grandchildren.

Charles Franklin Hudson, Jr., known to many as Frank, passed away on July 22, 2013, in Bellingham, Wash. at the age of 90. His brave heart had carried him through a full life and let him go peacefully in the early morning as he slept. His wife Sally followed him six short weeks later. He was preceded in death by his parents, sister Shirley and brother John (Jack) Hudson, of Friday Harbor. He is survived by: his son Chip (Charles F.

Hart) and spouse Chris of Bellingham, Wash., as well as grandchildren Shelby Hart, Amelia Hudson, Madison Hart, Caroline Hudson, and Lily Hudson. Frank was born in the state of Washington in 1922, and as a child he traveled more than most, spending time as a toddler in China with his parents, U.S. Navy Commander Charles F. Hudson, Sr., and Charlotte Rita Hudson (Hamilton), and later with his younger brother Jack. The family moved between assignments in Asia and the United States, including time at the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard and the San Diego Naval Base. When Frank was 14 the family moved from San Diego to Clearfield County, Penn., where his father had been raised. The move came at the start of Frank’s high school years, where he played on the Curwensville football, basketball, wrestling and boxing teams, and where he met his future wife, Sally Bloom.

Audrey Leah (Lycklama) Kelsey: 1965—2013 Audrey Kelsey passed away into the arms of her Lord and Savior on Oct. 17, 2013 in Bellingham, Wash. with her loving husband by her side, after a courageous battle with cancer. She was born to Heinz and Gerda Lycklama in Ottawa, Canada on June 20, 1965. Her family later moved to New Jersey and then California. Audrey graduated from Los Angeles Baptist High School and worked as a secretary until she married the love of her life, Michael Kelsey, in 1987.

opportunity to join the Central Intelligence Agency led Frank to move his family to Virginia. Their son, Chip, was born in 1953. Their daughter Jean followed in 1956. Three years later Frank took an overseas assignment in Taiwan, bringing his young family with him. In 1961 their daughter Charlotte was born and in 1963 Frank and his family returned to Asia for a tour of duty in Vietnam. In 1966, the family returned to Virginia, where Frank continued his career with the federal government until his retirement. Frank retired to Friday Harbor with his wife Sally and youngest daughter Char in 1975. He enjoyed boating and spent many years in the Friday Harbor Power Squadron, teaching navigation, organizing boating events, and serving as squadron commander. He also enjoyed tennis and was an active member of the San Juan Tennis Club. After their youngest went off to college, Frank and Sally took time to vacation in Europe, to ski with friends in Oregon, to travel by train across Canada, and to go on cruises to the Caribbean, the Panama Canal,

Continued from page 9 retirement they chose Friday Harbor as their new home. Sally never really retired as she continued to create the warm home that was always a comfort to Frank, and to their children when they returned for the holidays. Sally enjoyed the small town sense of community that Friday Harbor offered. She worked as a secretary for Krabbe & Starr Surveyors and volunteered for many years at the San Juan Island Library, and was a longtime member of the Presbyterian Church, serving as Sunday School teacher, church secretary and elder. Sally enjoyed long morn-

ing and hospitality, often ministering to the needs of other children in their home. Audrey had a very infectious and memorable laugh. Audrey is survived by husband Michael Kelsey, children Elizabeth, Alysa, and John, four siblings Audrey Kelsey and many other family members. She will be greatly missed by her extended family and many friends from around the world. A celebration of life service will be held on Nov. 2, at 2 p.m., at Grace Church Bellingham, 1815 Cornwall Ave. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to Agape Home for Women and Children, Lighthouse Mission Ministries, www.thelighthousemission.org. — Family of Audrey Kelsey

and Alaska. As their children became adults and built families of their own, Frank and Sally remained the hub of family life and the home to which all returned at holidays. Frank had a full and valuable life and will be greatly missed. He was a brave soldier, a life-long scholar, a loving son, brother, husband, father, and grandfather, and a man of honor, loyalty, integrity, and humor. A Celebration of Life will be held for both Frank & Sally on Saturday, Dec. 21, at 2 p.m., at Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church, 425 Spring Street, Friday Harbor, WA 98250. Interment will be at a later time at Arlington National Cemetery with full military honors. The family would like to thank the following individuals and organizations for their care and support of Frank: Lynn Wilson (of Friday Harbor), Dr. Gossom and staff (also of Friday Harbor), the staff at both Emeritus and Summit Assisted Living (Bellingham) and Hospice of Whatcom County. Your involvement in all of our lives made the journey a bit easier.

By Steve Wehrly Journal reporter

he new Islands Museum of Art unveiled architectural renderings of the new museum, and the IMA Board of Director announced a $2.28 million preliminary acquisition and construction budget and a July 4, 2014, target opening date. Earlier this month, the IMA relocated its offices to the new location at 540 Spring St., the former EMS building. A “groundbreaking” ceremony will be held in November and completion of construction is expected in early summer, although Acting Executive Director Charlie Bodenstab adds “barring unforeseen circumstances” to his prediction of a completion date. A gala grand opening celebration is planned for July 4. The plans, by noted local architect Richard Hobbs and public building architects Wagner/Galloway of Palisade, Colo., show a transformation of the former EMS building. A dramatic glass facade on Spring Street with a soaring, 20-foot ceiling and a new glassed-in atrium entrance in the middle of the building away from the street will define the building. “The building reflects what is going on inside. Coming here will be an artistic experience,” said Hobbs.

The EMS building, which Hobbs says was well-built “with great bones,” is basically a big rectangular box. The museum as designed retains the box “footprint,” but the box disappears behind the glass add-ons and a corten steel entry facade and walkway. Three first floor galleries, the two largest of which can be joined together, are created, and the existing second floor to the back will be a studio and education center, with storage to the side. The plans provide a total of about 6,000 square feet of usable space, all of it with museum-standard air conditioning to protect exhibited art. Originally named the Visual Museum of Art, the IMA was created in 2001, operated in several locations over its first dozen years, and for a few years was joined with the Sculpture Park at Roche Harbor. It is overseen by a six-member board - President Dr. Bo Turnage, Vice President Jack Yelverton, Secretary Marilyn Luckman, co-treasurers Barbara Ray and Karen Woldvedt, and Acting Executive Director Charlie Bodenstab. At least one more board member, and perhaps more, will be added. In line with the business background of several of the directors, the IMA has produced a six-year financial plan, which shows operating income, including contributions, at $1.4 million and expenses of $1.2 million. Over two hundred thousand dollars in contributions have already been raised, even before the Board’s expected announcements in November of fundraising plans. IMA board Vice President Jack Yelverton is confident the community will respond generously “to this wonderful cultural facility.” More than thirty leading community figures have volunteered to help, and more are expected after the November fundraising kickoff. The 5-year capital construction account is pegged at $2.28 million, all of it to be raised from donations and grants. The $650,000 purchase price for the building is included in that figure. The pro-forma financial statements are accompanied by a timetable outlining four phases of planning, construction, finishing and furnishing the various exhibit galleries, with a hoped-for grand opening by next summer.

Initiative 522 – badly written, costly and misleading Consumers would pay higher grocery prices

“Labeling needs to be done the right way, and I-522 falls short.” Everett Herald Editorial, 10/16/13

“Economic studies show I-522 would increase grocery prices for Washington families by hundreds of dollars per year.” Dan Newhouse, Former Director Washington State Department of Agriculture

“[I-522] would confuse rather than inform, so voters should reject this poorly worded and deceptive initiative.” The Olympian Editorial, 10/22/13

Many food labels would be false and inaccurate “Initiative 522 is so badly written it would require some foods to be labeled as genetically engineered, even if they're not. It would give consumers misleading information.” Ken Eikenberry, Former Washington State Attorney General

I-522’s labeling policies are unsupported by science “The information on food labels should be factual and reliable, but I-522 would provide inconsistent and misleading information and is unsupported by current nutrition research.” Sarah Zarelli, R.D., M.Ed. Registered Dietitian, Pediatrics, King County

“Washington voters and consumers can serve their best interests by voting No on I-522.” Seattle Times Editorial, 10/5/13

“I-522 doesn’t live up to its own truth-inpackaging claims.” Tacoma News Tribune Editorial, 10/6/13

Wolverines clinch league title in OT FH outduels league rival La Conner in shootout; Place drills the game winner By Scott Rasmussen Journal editor

The surge of butterflies was just about more than she could bear. But with an opportunity to strike the winning blow against their longtime rival, Friday Harbor’s Isabel Place fought off the intensity of the moment and drilled the ball into the back to lead the Wolverines to a dramatic overtime win at home, Tuesday, against La Conner. “It feels really good now,” said Place, who nailed the winning goal in a shootout knotted at 4-4 apiece in overtime. “But with so much pressure I felt like I was about to cry.” With the win, the Wolverines (7-0 league, 9-6 overall) swept their two-game season series against La Conner and with a victory two days later at Orcas, an 8-0 shutout, clinched the Northwest 1A/2B League title. They faced Mount Vernon Christian (4-2) Monday, Oct. 28, in their final game in league play. With the top spot the league standings at stake and the Braves looking to avenge an earlier loss to the Wolverines on their home field, Friday Harbor Coach Paul Hopkins expected Tuesday’s battle to be intense. It didn’t disappoint, he said. “For this rivalry it was another classic,” Hopkins said. “When we were in the shootout I was having a hard time breathing.” As with most classics, the match was marked by controversy as well, one which the La Conner faithful won’t be likely to dismiss anytime soon. With La Conner up by a point in the shootout, and the Wolverines in need of a goal to tie the score and force another round, Emily Guard struck a shot that missed wide to the right. Guard was

Young Wolverines prep for post-season The Friday Harbor volleyball team will open postseason play, Wednesday, with one of its youngest squads in recent memory and its best won-loss record in more than a decade. The Wolverines (5-1 league, 10-3 overall) will also carry into the 1A districts playoffs lessons learned after squaring off a week ago against two of the region’s premier volleyball teams, Division 2B powerhouse and Northwest 1A/2B League champ La Conner (11-0), and 1A foe Lynden Christian (11-1). They pushed the Lyncs to the brink of an upset in the third game of a three-game loss at home, Saturday, before falling 25-20 in the third. They gave the Braves, a perennial 2B state tournament team, all they could handle in the second game, a 26-24 defeat, of a threegame loss at home Oct. 22. In between losses to the Braves and Lyncs, Friday Harbor swept league opponent Shoreline Christian at home Oct. 24 to remain in the hunt with Darrington for sole possession of sec-

awarded another attempt, however, as the referee ruled that he had yet to signal “ready” with his whistle when Wolverines leading scorer had unleashed the failed kick. Guard drilled the ball into the net with the second attempt to even the score. With freshman Hayden Mayer defending the goal, Friday Harbor held the Braves scoreless in regulation and in the two 5-minute periods of sudden death that followed. Mayer, guarding the net in her first-ever shoot-out, faced six shots by the Braves, blocking one and watching another miss wide, which gave Place a chance to drive in the winning goal. “They were going right and they were going left, and I didn’t really know which way to react,” she said. “It was so nerve-wracking I could feel it in my stomach.” Next: Friday Harbor opens post-season play Wednesday, at the 1A district playoffs, at Kings High School, against Kings; match time is 4 p.m.

IT’S ELECTRIFYING!

OPALCO CONSTRUCTION PROJECT ON CATTLE POINT ROAD OPALCO is preparing to install 2.2 miles of conduit and facilities for a new underground feeder and distribution line from the intersection of Argyle Road and Pear Point Road south along Cattle Point Road to Little Road on San Juan Island. We hope to begin the project this fall, weather permitting, and work will likely continue through 2014. With all of OPALCO’s trenching projects, we make best use of every opportunity to share an open trench (and the costs of trenching), as well as include fiber—or empty conduit that is fiber ready. In this case, we will share the trenching with CenturyLink. This project will improve the reliability, efficiency and capacity of OPALCO’s electric distribution system in this area, improve the capabilities of OPALCO’s SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system by connecting a switch, and add fiber-optic capacity along the entire route.

Steenkolk tallies three TDs, gains 233 yards in 35-28 narrow defeat

A rash of injuries undercut an early lead and another monster game on the ground by senior Nate Steenkolk, as the Friday Harbor football couldn’t keep pace in the second half in a 35-28 defeat on the road, Friday, at Nooksack Valley. The Wolverines, leading 21-7 midway through Journal file photo the opening half, lost three Above, Nate Steenkolk heads for the end zone in the 2013 Island key starters to injuries, Peter Holt, Amer Melic and Cup. The senior tailback gained 233 yards and scored three touchNelson Wynn, before the downs in the Wolverines loss at Nooksack Valley Oct. 25. break. The Pioneers rallied and with two TDs before the half grabbed a 22-21 advantage. “We were up 21-7 and then we started losing people,” Coach Richard Ledford said. “We had to go with lesser experience players in the lineup and that hurt.” Steenkolk tallied three touchdowns and amassed 233 of Friday Harbor’s 346 total rushing yards. Dylan Radden gained 63 yards on eight carries. While Holt appears to have suffered a season-ending shoulder injury, Ledford is hopeful that Melic (ankle) and Wynn (knee) will be back in the lineup for the Wolverines regularseason finale this Thusday, Halloween night, at home against Lynden Christian, a second meeting of the year between the two teams. Friday Harbor dealt the Lyncs a 49-21 defeat on the road Sept. 13.
