No beach access for Glendale
Proposed Bayview fire station estimated at $5.4 million Chief proposes nonvoter bonds to cover costs By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
IBA leader Mike McVay said, “She’s right.” “We don’t have a lot of money, but we’ll do it. If you don’t want to pay taxes to do something, you just do it. We are going to offer our services absolutely. The thing at Glendale is a great opportunity to restore that to a public facility.” Mindy Thompson, whose family has lived just a half-mile from the Glendale beach access for 40 years, said the community has already lost one local beach and really hopes they can hang onto the one at Glendale. “The fear of losing our beach access is huge,” Thompson said.
Building a new fire station in Bayview may cost South Whidbey Fire/EMS nearly $1 million more than the first proposal 10 years ago. Chief Rusty Palmer told the fire commissioners Thursday night that the district’s hired design firm, Mount Vernon-based Carletti Architects, had a $5.4 million “swag” estimate for the multi-purpose facility. Commissioners were not surprised by the increase from what was once pegged at $4.4 million, and were relieved that it did not come back higher. The fire station would have dual functions as a staff headquarters and as the new station to serve the center of the fire protection district that stretches south from Possession Point north to Classic Road. The reworked plan combines the two facilities into one building on the already purchased property between the Good Cheer Food Bank and the Bayview School.

Glendale beach access proponents Mike McVay and Mindy and Mike Thompson sit on the breakwater in front of the old Glendale Hotel on South Whidbey. The Island County Commissioners this month decided not to consider purchasing the building, along with an adjacent home. Both would provide beach access to the public.
Commissioners nix proposal to buy two waterfront lots By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record Island County leadership passed this month on the chance to apply for grants that would allow them to acquire beach access properties adjacent to Glendale Beach. Both Commissioners Kelly Emerson and Jill Johnson said they could not support acquiring more park land, even through grants, if it meant additional maintenance costs down the road. “I realize this is just the first step, but I really hate to see us spending any time or money on this,” Emerson said. “We already have no money to take care of our parks. I am not in favor of obtaining any more property.”
The discussion was raised at a March 5 work session and the two commissioners agreed the grant applications, which would have been submitted in partnership with the Whidbey Camano Land Trust, would result in the county taking on the upkeep. Commissioner Helen Price Johnson was not present for the work session. While another grant aimed at improvements at Trillium Community Forest has been tabled until March 19, it is unlikely that the Glendale grant applications will resurface at the county level without majority board support. “Island Beach Access seems to have a lot of money, maybe they will run with this,” Johnson said at the work session. When asked to respond to Johnson’s comment,

Farmers eye Ebey’s Reserve to grow marijuana By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record Some Central Whidbey farmers want to grow marijuana in Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve. “I grew up here and all I wanted to do was leave Whidbey Island,” said reserve farmer Josh Frank Harvey during Tuesday’s Island County Planning Commission meeting. “Now this I-502 is giving me an opportunity to come back to Whidbey Island.” The draft land use regulations — on which the board took public comment Tuesday — singles out the reserve, limiting farmers to the smallest tier of production operations, 2,000 square feet or less. Processing and retail were not allowed on the reserve under the draft land use regulations. The county issued a sixmonth moratorium on new recreational and medical marijuana businesses in November after the passage of Initiative 502, which legalized recreational marijuana production and distribution. The state accepted a first round of applications for marijuana business licenses Nov. 18 to Dec. 20. Thirty applications were submitted by potential growers, another 20 for processing and nine for retail stores in Island County.
Janis Reid / The Record
Island County Planning Director David Wechner listens to public comment during a hearing about possible marijuana production in the county. Harvey asked the commission to reconsider the draft ordinance’s ban on processing in the reserve. He proposed an organic operation on his rural agriculturezoned property where the extent of processing would be trimming, weighing, bagging and labeling. “I’m concerned about the reserve putting restrictions on what I can do with my property,” Harvey said. “It seems a little unfair.” Several other reserve farmers and land owners also weighed in, both during the public hearing and in writing. “My whole issue with the ordinance is the section on Ebey’s Reserve,” said Wilbur
Bishop, an Ebey’s Reserve resident, to the planning commissioners. “I think you should remove it.” Bishop said he didn’t think Ebey’s Reserve farmers should be held to a different standard because it sets a bad precedent. He said restrictions should be the same county-wide. “It’s going to be a bad situation down the road,” Bishop said. “I don’t want to be treated any different.”
Judy Harvey, another reserve property owner, submitted several letters into the public record Tuesday, written and signed by herself and her neighbors in favor of lifting the restrictions. “I do not support the county putting additional restrictions on the farmers of Ebey’s Reserve,” Harvey said. Kristen Griffin, who assumed her role as reserve manager last month, said that “opportunities to engage in
the workshops didn’t occur” and that the reserve trust board is eager to weigh in on the restriction but their regular meeting isn’t until after the planning commission’s next meeting on March 25. “I think it’s important that the reason this [restriction] ended up in the ordinance is a concern for a special place,” Griffin said. “I appreciate that.” While the planning commission took no action on the land use standards Tuesday, South Whidbey resident Dean Enell and other planning commissioners said they were open to “scrapping” the restriction on Ebey’s Reserve based on farmer comments. “To me, the purpose of the reserve is keeping agriculture flourishing,” Enell said. Chairwoman Val Hillers said that of the 19 farms in
the reserve, the planning commission had received signed letters from “a number” of the farmers who were opposed to the idea of marijuana fields. “I think the farmers have weighed in here who said, ‘we don’t want this,’ ” Hillers said. Planning Director David Wechner was given direction to change the land use regulations accordingly. The planning commission voted to extend the public hearing until the board’s next meeting at 9 a.m. March 25. The planning commission is hoping to get the land use regulations approved in time for an ordinance to be passed by the Island County Board of Commissioners by the end of the six-month moratorium, May 13.

CLINTON Missed turn traps Deer Lake driver A Clinton woman was transported to the hospital for injuries she suffered in a one-car accident on Deer Lake Road early Wednesday. According to Sgt. Laura Price of the Island County Sheriff’s Office, the accident occurred at about 5:45 a.m. near the turn at Big Harv’s Lane. Jacqueline Edwards, 29, was westbound on Deer Lake Road in a 2011 Ford

Escape when the vehicle left the roadway. “It looks like she failed to negotiate the turn,” Price said. The car entered a ditch along the side of the road and struck a culvert, mailboxes and an embankment before rolling over and striking a fence. The vehicle sustained heavy damage to both sides of the car, which made her extrication by emergency responders challenging, said Mike Cotton, deputy chief with South Whidbey Fire/EMS. “We had to remove the door to get her out,” Cotton said.

It was taken off with hydraulic tools, commonly referred to as the “Jaws of Life.” Edwards was then transported by ambulance to Whidbey General Hospital in Coupeville. Her status could not be confirmed with hospital officials by press time. Police ruled out drugs or alcohol as factors in the accident. Edwards was cited for “speed too fast to avoid a collision.” The accident resulted in one lane of traffic being shut down for about 30 minutes.
LANGLEY Tree ordinance has exceptions Which trees can be cut will be made more clear by the Langley tree ordinance, discussed by the city’s planning advisory board or PAB last week.

ments and ordinance to move the document to a public hearing, likely to be held in May, though a date was not set. Amendments to the tree ordinance include setting up a site review process, Arango said, which will review nonresidential and multi-family residential projects. Trees that are at least 12 inches in diameter at chest height will need a permit to be cut. “This would require you to explain the rhyme or reason why you’re clearing a property,” Arango said. Several exceptions were added to the tree cutting permit, however. For example, cutting a tree that blocks a view, or one that’s a property or safety risk, would not require a permit. Also, permits would be free. The PAB also heard an update from developer Paul Schell, who owns the Inn at Langley and is constructing a building near the marina. He proposed a public elevator and bridge — dubbed the Langley Lift — that would connect pedestrians from Cascade Avenue to the waterfront near South Whidbey Harbor. Arango said the city is waiting for cost estimates that will determine how much Langley would pay for the project. The funicular, a tram with a Saratoga Passage-facing pod that moves up and
down the bluff, is still an option for the city. “It’s good to see the design progressing,” Arango said, who added that maintenance cost was an important factor. “We need to have all the estimates on the costs.” Arango said the city hopes to move the project forward within two years.
FIRE/EMS Bayview station meeting planned The public can hear an updated cost estimate for a new Bayview fire station Tuesday, March 18 at South Whidbey High School. The commissioners plan to attend an alldistrict meeting with the volunteer firefighters and emergency medical technicians. Because the fire board of commissioners will have a quorum, the meeting is open to public until they conclude the special meeting that begins at 7 p.m.

GLENDALE CONTINUED FROM A1
A worst-case scenario would be if a private owner came in and eliminated the public’s ability to access the water. “We’ve been walking that beach all our lives,” Thompson said. “We just want access to open beach without being harassed.” The grant applications totaled $900,000 and would acquire two parcels that would provide beach access, parking and a boat ramp. Existing structures would need to be demolished. Public Works Director Bill Oakes said the Glendale properties would be a good acquisition as a mitigation measure due to its history of flooding, but that the county would need to apply for additional grants to complete the project. Emerson said not only does the county already have beach access points and parks that are not maintained, but a major park funding source ends in 2016 causing counties to find replacement funding for park maintenance. “We need to take care of what we have first before we add more,” Johnson said Thursday. “Just acquiring without the means to maintain is irresponsible. Sometimes, as hard as it is to say no, you need to say no.” She said despite the eagerness of the beach access group to help maintain it, Johnson said she would not be willing to reconsider her position. “Dealing with the shoreline is technical, expensive and time consuming,” Johnson said. “If it was cheap and easy, I wouldn’t hesitate. I love their passion, I want to say yes, but it’s irresponsible. I hate that that’s the truth, but it’s the truth.” Price Johnson said Thursday she was disappointed that the Glendale grant talks weren’t delayed until they could all be present because she thinks it’s an important opportunity. “Buying is in the public interest,” Price Johnson said, because it could prevent both future flood damage and provide prime beach access. Despite IBA’s eagerness to assist, Price Johnson agreed that the county would still have to be the land owner and shoulder the responsibility. Price Johnson said she has reached out to both the South Whidbey port and parks districts for assistance with this and other beach access locations. “I know that our community values public beach access, and it’s gonna take us pulling together and sharing resources,” Price Johnson said. “We need think outside the regular box.”

Editorial Letters Glendale purchase Response Parks board was pass is shortsighted right to lift ban Public beach access: it’s been sand in the shoes of Island County commissioners for decades. It started as just a few grains, a handful of grumblers, but with steady growth the issue is now the regular topic of headlines, and that shoe just keeps filling up. The board does its best to pour it out, such as with the lawsuit over Wonn Road or the acceptance — though grudging — of Robinson Beach, but more sand always seems to take its place. One of the big problems is that Island County has a hole in its shoe, or more specifically, the board does. Politics and differing values of commissioners over the years has led to a less-than-steady approach to the issue, sometimes resulting in community treasurers and at other times missed opportunities. Nowhere is that more clear than the board’s decision earlier this month not to buy two properties in Glendale, which served as accesses to the water for generations. Republican Commissioners Jill Johnson and Kelly Emerson nixed the proposal, citing the cost of maintenance at a time when the county is struggling to maintain the property it has. Johnson scoffed that Island Beach Access, a citizen-composed advocacy group involved in the county’s legal battle over Wonn Road, has lots of money and should buy it themselves. At a time when the county has devoted years and resources to reclaiming beach access from Bruce Montgomery, the Greenbank property owner at the center of the legal beef over Wonn Road, such comments toward a group dedicated to providing the public with parkland — a job usually reserved for government — is poor form and the decision to forego such property is a step in the wrong direction. Yes, beachfront property is expensive. Yes, the county doesn’t have a lot of money. And yes, we can’t buy everything that comes along. But beaches are not some obscure empty field; they are the crust of a pie that is only getting smaller, and the never-ending tide of growth and development make each crumb priceless. Prior boards have recognized this and fought long and unpopular battles to acquire properties such as Double Bluff, a public beach now so frequently used and beloved that not having it is almost inconceivable. Former longtime commissioner Mike Shelton, a Republican, was instrumental in that effort. We live in tough economic times, when elected officials are forced to choose which priorities to fund and the choice is not always easy. But this topic keeps raising its ugly head for one simple reason — the public views beach access as more important than ever before. It’s time the board, regardless of its current political makeup, recognizes that this isn’t the agenda of impossible-to-please extremists but is a community priority. Reconsider your decision, commissioners. It’s not too late to patch that shoe and secure a property the public can treasure for generations to come.

Editor, Contrary to The Record’s March 8 editorial, the park board’s decision to lift its ban on Terry Swanson was not based on favoritism or a “free pass” to disobey rules. Instead, its decision effectively admits that: 1) the park director’s order that Terry corral 18 athletes within a 30-by-50 area was based upon the director’s misunderstanding of the number of players involved, it was unsafe, and would have caused precisely the damage to the turf that the park wants to avoid; 2) the board has no precedent for banning citizens for playing soccer on an open soccer field; and 3) the primary purpose of the soccer fields is for soccer and not for show. In other words, the board realizes that the park is meant for the people who pay for and use it. Its support of Terry’s actions shows that common sense trumps unreasonable bureaucracy. Terry Swanson is a model citizen, a caring person, and a great coach. ERIC HOOD, Langley MICHAEL GIBSON, Clinton NELS BERGQUIST, Langley JOHN AND KELLY HENRIOT, Clinton MAGGIE JONES, Freeland
Swanson acted like a “bully” Editor, Regarding the article headed “Swanson reigns supreme,” in the March edition of The Record, a superficial reading of the facts
indicates that he is an arrogant bully with no regard for rules and regulations. Further investigation may prove otherwise, but it is doubtful. Is this the type of person we want coaching and teaching our youth? Win at any cost, I am right and you are wrong? I hope not. Sincerely, THOM PERMENTER Seattle

Whidbey Fair plan was not so great Tiny sand shrimp are a big deal Editor, I found the recent proposal to remake the Whidbey Island Fair in Langley breathtaking in its scope. Along with wholesale change in character comes a huge debt, creating both a community-support gamble and a financial threat. The outcome could readily be failure and sale of the property within five years. Pulling up the Island County Fair by its roots and creating another Puyallup Fair-type venue may not be what urbanites seeking a dose of reality wait in ferry
Editor, I read in Feb. 26 edition of the The Record on the front page, “Langley leaders seek sand shrimp harvest moratorium.” The concern was to make sure there was enough sand shrimp to keep the gray whales coming back because they are an important tourism draw and that, according to the Langley Shrimp Advisory Committee, “whales are not visiting Langley as frequently as in years past.” I would suggest there’s a connection and my concern

is that not enough local people seem to be aware of the enormous naval buildup on Whidbey Island and environs. The Navy has published a “take list” (a list of injured and killed marine mammals) that it is expecting to “take” in the next five years in coastal waters, from Canada to northern California, for their operations. It will be about 650,000. It looks to me like the Navy has declared war on marine mammals. The “take” of the gray whales, the ones our Langley leaders are concerned about, is estimated to be 20. These are the whales that are referred to by Mayor Fred McCarthy when he said, “Whales have a good memory.” The Navy intends to use this enormous area for training, using sonar, missile and explosives exercises. Have you ever read about a whale beaching itself mysteriously? Many of these have been attributed to sonar tests. It appears that the Navy considers whales to be “colSEE LETTERS, A7

William Rae Houlihan, of Freeland, Wash., passed away peacefully at Harborview Medical Center surrounded by his loving family on March 6, 2014, at the age of 83. He was born in Butte,
Mont., Jan. 9, 1931 to Isabel and Sylvester Houlihan. Rae attended Garfield Elementary, Butte High School and Eastern Montana College in Billings, Mont. He was married to his beloved wife of over 60 years, Darlene Riley, on April 19, 1953. Rae served two years with the U.S. Navy aboard the USS Virgo, an attack cargo ship. Rae worked construction, building an oil refinery in Billings, installing Otis Elevator systems, worked as a mechanic for Murray Motor Company and served as a clerk for Milwaukee Rail Road. He then began a 32-year career with Stauffer Chemical Company, retiring as a supervisor.

Falcon boys soccer preview Expectations set for state tournament title run By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Murmurs and whispers of playing in the state 1A boys soccer tournament became full-blown cheers for South Whidbey this season. Normally coaches and players are quiet when they talk about their expectation to reach a state tournament or challenge for a championship. Not these Falcons, who changed one of their end-ofpractice team cheers from “Falcons on three: one-twothree, Falcons!” to “State on three: one-two-three, state!” “We’re setting our expectations high,” said junior defender Oliver Saunsaucie, sidelined early with an undiagnosed foot injury. Last year, the South Whidbey Falcon boys soccer team suffered a bitter end to its season in the tridistrict tournament. Cascade Christian knocked out South
Whidbey in a shootout and eventually went on to the state tournament. Trey Adams, a senior forward and team captain, still remembers the loss. He said some of the returning varsity players talk about it, which reminds them to work harder and play smarter to avoid a similar fate. “It was one of the most heartbreaking things ever,” said Adams, citing the loss in 2013, a penalty kick defeat to Bellingham in 2012 and the team’s fall to Squalicum in 2011. “I’m tired of having a bitter taste in my mouth after the playoffs.” One reason for the Falcons’ confidence is a returning core with a history of winning. The junior varsity squad has been nearly perfect the past two seasons, and many of those players are on varsity this season. Then there’s their offseason exploits, which includes a U-17 state title with the South Whidbey Reign. Nearly every
player on the Reign is a varsity Falcon. Before South Whidbey even has a chance at qualifying for the state tournament, to be held May 30-31 in Sumner, the Falcons need to finish as a top-two team in the Cascade Conference among 1A teams. That means they’ll need to beat Coupeville and King’s, and the Whidbey Island rival has long tripped up South Whidbey. In past seasons, the Falcons have finished with winning records, but have lost games to less skilled teams which left the coaches and players perplexed. Cedarcrest finished atop the Cascade Conference standings in 2013 with a 13-1 league record. South Whidbey cobbled together a 9-5 league record for third place and finished 11-7 overall. Players like Adams and his senior teammates are
forthright about their aspirations to shake up the conference standings with South Whidbey at the apex this season. “We’re coming out on top,” said Adams, smiling wide. With the season opener around the corner, South Whidbey’s top priority was defense. The Falcons had to replace all-conference spots across the pitch; perhaps none as important as a new goalie in lieu of tall, athletic keeper Andrew Holt who graduated last spring. South Whidbey figures to have the replacement in the smaller but noless athletic Charlie Stelling, a junior. Around him will be some familiar faces, such as Saunsaucie and senior Jack Hood, a three-year varsity defender. Filling one defensive void is junior Anders Bergquist, who Adams said is a player to watch this season. “He makes the right decision every time,” Adams said.
Falcon fastpitch preview Turnover hits softball team By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record At least the look of the Falcon girls fastpitch team will be different this season. South Whidbey softball has a new coach and lost a few players who elected to not play. All of the changes have the softball squad’s season up in the air. The Falcons could fall like last year when the team finished 3-15 in the Cascade Conference, or they could find some fresh footing to build upon. New head coach Tim Collins said
he hopes for the latter, and plans to craft a culture of hard work and fun. “We need to get back that love for the game, because we don’t have it right now,” he said. During one practice, the group of a dozen or so girls lined up behind home plate for a base-running drill. They smiled, they cheered, they laughed; a few even danced a bit as they waited their turn to sprint out of the batter’s box. Team bonding has become a point of emphasis. Senior Chantel Brown said the team was going to
make team T-shirts at her house over the weekend, a way to informally gather the girls and do something softball-related, but less strenuous than practice. Long-range plans envisioned by Collins, the seniors and the school’s athletic department are to cultivate a culture of softball on South Whidbey. Get a team that has some success with girls that have fun, then parade that around town at the younger grades and at the lower levels of the sport like Little League and the parks and recreation teams. “It won’t be perfect this year, but hopefully we can add a little more each year and get rolling,” Collins said.

Falcon fastpitch players cheer on a teammate during a base running drill. Early in the season, Collins worked to reduce the errors made by the players, some of whom had not played fastpitch prior to trying out for the Falcons. Brown said the team’s strength thus far was its returning infield of Anne
Madsen, Chloe Huffman, Haley Viers, and Sarah Merrow. Brown said she would likely rotate positions, though she looked forward to playing center field and anticipated athletic catches and strong throws to home plate.

Falcon girls tennis preview Surge in numbers prompts addition of third coach By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
Forty-two girls crowd the tennis courts at South Whidbey High School during a recent practice. The sheer volume of the program led head coach Karyle Kramer, in her third season at the helm following her father and predecessors’ three decades in charge, to seek a third coach to help with the junior varsity team. By the second week of the season, Kramer said she had yet to set apart the eight varsity players. “I just see this pack every day and think how I’m going to separate this pack,” Kramer said. “We really think of ourselves as one big team,” she added.
At the head of the group are the team’s top returners, Amelia Weeks and Tess Radisch. Last year, the duo was eliminated after the second round of the state 1A girls tennis tournament. Whether or not she would play with Radisch again was uncertain, as Kramer is fond of rotating players between singles and doubles. But Weeks said her goal was to advance past the first day of the state tournament. “I hope we do better than last year,” Weeks said. “I enjoy doubles more, but doubles benefits singles, and singles benefits doubles,” she added. In the offseason, Weeks regularly played tennis, at least two times per

is loaded with experience. Of the 42 girls, 20 are sophomores. One of the few drawbacks of having such a large team, said Kramer, is the lack of courts for matches and challeng-
es to determine the varsity roster. “We don’t have the time and the court space to constantly do challenges,” she said. Last season, the Falcons won the 1A District 1 team title. Though it could be expected of the team to repeat, Kramer said she reminds her players that a championship will not be given to them. “They know, like I know, that it’s a whole new year,” Kramer said. One aspect of the team that has remained, said Weeks, was its cheerful, inclusive environment. That was also noticed by Kramer, who said she appreciated the seniors’ initiative to learn the younger girls’ names and interact with them rather than separating into a clique. “This team has a really positive attitude,” Weeks said. “Even though sometimes a big team can split into new players and returning players, this is a welcoming team.”
Falcon track and field preview No home meets, no problem By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record It’s a rare sunny day and some 70-plus students are scattered around Waterman Field at a track and field practice. It was a welcome sight to senior Nick French, a 1A state meet-caliber javelin thrower, who recalled track and field numbers dwindling to the 20s as a freshman. “I remember going to a javelin practice and there were six throwers,” he said. Things are different now, in head coach Mark Eager’s second year. At the other end of the 100-meter stretch from him and the other sprinters and jumpers is a small host of throwers working out with throwing coach Jeff Greene. The size of the program also thrilled Madi Boyd, a senior sprinter who has run track all four years at South Whidbey High School.
“Pretty much the whole basketball team is out, which is awesome,” she said. “A lot of school leaders are on track,” she added. This year may be the swing from the girls team usually placing higher in Cascade Conference and district meets to the boys team taking the lead. The girls team lost several prominent seniors, including Angelina Berger, one of 1A’s best throwers the past four years. What the team may lack in its top-tier throwing talent, Boyd said, it will make up for with its strength in numbers. “We have a lot more girl throwers, so hopefully our numbers will make up for her winning,” Boyd said, adding that a few softball players, potentially with strong arms, joined track this season. A new spirit of commitment has taken hold in the track athletes, Boyd and French said. Last year, some
of the Falcons left as the season wore on or did not take practice seriously enough. “Last year people thought of track practice as an optional thing,” Boyd said. But by the season’s end when several athletes qualified for the 1A state meet, people took notice that Falcon track and field was a contender. It’s bolstered the boys sprinters, who have their sights set on racing in the state meet after narrowly missing last season. “We’re going to take four relays to state,” French said. “I don’t know if we’re fast enough as individuals.” Passing the baton will be a major focus for the boys sprinters, of which French was one the past two seasons. Last year, the handoff was rife with issues that French said stemmed from turnover on the relay teams. With some of his lifelong friends

His true passion, and the
thing that will draw many a spectator to tracks around the conference this season, is the javelin. Last year, French set his best mark at 182 feet. But an injury limited his ability to run before he threw and his distance tapered at the state meet. Feeling healthy,
French has his sights set on throwing 200 feet and competing for a state title. “I just throw as far as I can every time,” he said. “We want to show people that’s not a fluke year,” he added, referring to South Whidbey’s showing through the conference and district meets. Relays figure to be a strength for the girls team as well. Boyd noted the addition of athletes from other sports that could bolster the runners’ ranks, as well as the stalwart distance runners headed by junior Cole Zink and sophomore girl Mallorie Mitchem. “I think we have a lot of talent all around,” Boyd said. “I think we’re going to be one of the better teams, actually.” For the second season in a row, South Whidbey will not have any home meets at Waterman Field. The closest South Whidbey will come to a home meet will be a preseason jamboree at Oak Harbor High School on March 20.

Falcon golf preview Girls have big divots to fill; boys look to recover By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record A couple of strokes cost South Whidbey a top-three finish at the state 1A girls golf tournament last year, a banner season for the Falcons and head coach Tom Sage. Three girls return from that varsity squad, which will help cover for the loss of several seniors who led South Whidbey to win team titles in the Cascade Conference, District 1, and tri-district tournaments. This season, South Whidbey’s girls golf team will play without a single senior on the roster, and will instead be bolstered by juniors Rosie Portillo, Grace Stringer and Meaghan de Wolf. “There’s pressure to be that good,” Stringer said. “But with all that we lost, I’m not sure we can exceed it. Maybe next season.” Nine girls turned out for the golf program, and only six are allotted varsity spots in tournaments and

operator of the Holmes Harbor Golf Course whose daughter Tarra is on the team, and Matt Portillo, Rosie’s father. Rosie Portillo, who qualified for the state tournament last season but failed to advance to the second day, said the quality of the freshmen will bolster the team. “We have a lot of good people out,” she said. “We have at least three, maybe four, people who can get to tri-district and state.” In a sport that heavily favors the specialized athlete, Portillo said she spent the offseason on several courses around Washington. She played in some tournaments, meeting other premier girl golfers in Washington. It gave her some perspective as to how she would have to improve in order to make a splash this season. The boys, under head coach Steve Jones and assistant Jim Thompson, hope to build on last year’s squad. No Falcons made the tri-district, state-qualifying round,
and the boys scores were often in the high-80s and 90s. With 18 players registered for the boys golf team, Jones said he saw several talented freshmen enter the program this season. “A lot of them seem to have some experience with golf, which makes me really happy,” Jones said. Leading the young team are the program’s only seniors, John Rasmussen and Austin Drake, both four-year golfers at South Whidbey. Last year, Rasmussen started the season as the team’s top golfer. He quickly fell down the roster, however, and found himself at the third spot, which is not where he envisioned himself. One of the keys to improving his game was shaving strokes from the short game, specifically putting. He said he practiced primarily on the putting green in the weeks leading to the season’s start, “making sure I’m getting the break.”
Determination makes the difference, seniors say By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Exiting from the postseason one game shy of the 1A state tournament last year is a memory South Whidbey baseball seniors are eager to put behind them. And they plan to by making the state tournament this May, one in which the players are all a bit older, a bit stronger, and a bit more familiar with each other and secondyear head coach Tom Fallon.
“We’ve all been playing together for a long time,” said senior CJ Sutfin, one of the team’s pitchers and first basemen. Facing Charles Wright Academy in the tri-district elimination game last year, the team’s four seniors said inexperience got the best of the team. It was a back-andforth, tightly played winnerto-state contest, and eventually the pressure cracked the Falcons. “Some of us seniors didn’t
even play varsity two years ago,” Sutfin said. A sense of unity has taken root among the players, said senior left fielder Nick Bennett, calling it a “good, positive attitude.” The roster changed slightly since last season when the Falcons went 7-12 in the regular season and 2-3 in the playoffs. Making the playoffs is guaranteed for South Whidbey because there are only two 1A teams in the Cascade Conference, and both play
in the District 1 tournament. That makes the seasonopening three-game series with Coupeville, the other 1A school, critical in determining which Northwest Conference team South Whidbey will face first in the postseason. “Our first series with Coupeville is huge,” said senior pitcher and infielder Colton Sterba. “It’s the difference between playing Meridian or Blaine first.” Meridian is traditionally a baseball powerhouse in the

advantage,” added senior Jake Sladky, one of the team’s vocal leaders.

Spring blossoms on Whidbey Meerkerk Gardens prepares for upcoming sale By CELESTE ERICKSON South Whidbey Record Buds are blossoming and rhodies are lining the paths of Meerkerk Rhododendron Gardens as staff members prepare to open the season with the sale. Operations manager Joan Bell is looking forward to seeing rhodies in every corner of the garden. “It’s a fun thing to look up and see the layers of them outside,” said Bell of the garden’s signature rhododendrons. “Here, you have to keep your eyes open.” The garden will begin the season with a spring nursery plant sale from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. next weekend, March 22 and 23, at 3531 Meerkerk Lane in Greenbank. Entry to the garden will be free during the sale weekend. This year, Bell is expanding classes offered at the garden, including a series on dahlia propagation for successful blooms. The new Mary Margaret Haugen hybrid rhododendron, named for the former state senator and created by Frank Fujioka, a well-known hybridizer, will also be featured. The property includes 10 acres for display and 43 acres of woodland preserve. It was

Greenbank residents Arlee Anderson and Barbara Douglas pull weeds during a volunteer day at Meerkerk Rhododendron Gardens in preparation for the spring nursery plant sale March 22 and 23. established by Ann and Max Meerkerk beginning in the early 1960s. Before Ann’s passing in 1979, she gifted the property to the Seattle Rhododendron Society. Today, the non-profit garden is used for viewing, workshops, hybridizing and is open to the public. The garden features a variety of blooms from the classic rhododendrons to a felt-like leaf called the Teddy Bear, named for its texture. Other rare sights fill the garden, such as the sought-after “bee tree,” diamond bark maple tree, and a test garden for hybrid plants. Volunteers have worked to beautify the gardens since
the beginning of February to prepare for peak season, from mid-April to mid-May. During a work party in early March, a dozen or so volunteers were pulling and tossing weeds from the beds. With a tight budget, they are the backbone of the garden and provide the much-needed labor to maintain the area, Bell explained. Greenbank resident Arlee Anderson has volunteered at Meerkerk for six years
and teaches workshops. She moved to the area from Montana and said once she found the garden, loved the soft peacefulness of it. “It beats the price of therapy,” she said. Susie Reynolds, nursery manager, reiterated that feeling. “It’s a good place to break the monotony,” she said. “Some people use the place as a church.” Reynolds said one of the

hopes to develop the house on the property into a space to rent out for more events and classes. Classes are occasionally held in the building, but the structure needs several upgrades, including the septic system, flooring and windows, Bell said. “Our focus is maintaining the garden in a wonderful way and expanding what we can,” Bell said. “There’s so much we’d like to do, but maintenance is our top priority,” she said.

Palmer said the new design reduces each facility by about 1,000 square feet and that combining the facilities will reduce excavation costs as only one foundation would be needed. Nine offices are proposed for the district staff. Currently, South Whidbey Fire/EMS has eight staff members — five chiefs and three administrative assistants.

In total, the room could seat 100 people — more than the entire district’s current roster of volunteers. “Once this facility is built, there aren’t any other facilities to build for a long time,” Palmer said. The two-story structure would have the engine bays and a basement for storage and possibly a fire district workout room on the street level. The second story, above the garage, would contain four sleeping rooms, a room, a bathroom with showers, and a living room for volunteer recreation. South Whidbey Fire/EMS does not employ a sleeper
