WGH head nurse charged in alleged assault Internal investigation found accusations without merit

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Prosecutors charged the chief nursing officer at Whidbey General Hospital last week with assaulting a patient.

Linda Gipson, 62, is facing a single count of assault in the fourth degree, a gross misdemeanor charge.

The criminal charge was filed July 2 in Island County District Court.

Coupeville Marshal Rick Norrie investigated the case. In his report, he wrote that Gipson fired one of the nurses who was an alleged witness and another employee expressed fear of retaliation if she spoke out.

Whidbey General administration is standing by

Gipson this week.

Hospital spokeswoman Trish Rose said in a written statement that the administration conducted an internal investigation and concluded the allegations are without merit.

“Dr. Gipson has over 30 years of experience and has cared for thousands of patients,” Rose said in her written statement. “This is the first time she has ever been GIPSON

Fishing derby catches winners in Oak Harbor

By JANIS REID Staff reporter

Travis Westman and his mom, Jill, took the hook out of a small fish Saturday, trying not to cause any damage before they released it back into Puget Sound.

It took them a few minutes to free the fish that lay very still. The Westmans weren’t sure the fish was going to make it as they dropped it into the water.

But their care paid off and the fish swam away.

“She’s swimming!” Jill

Westman said.

This was the Westmans’ second year at the annual Kid’s Fishing Derby at the Oak Harbor Marina Saturday, an event that has become a regular outing for families.

The community event offers prizes in a number of different fishing categories and children have two hours to catch the best or most fish they can.

This year marked the 34th year for the event hosted by the Oak Harbor

Yacht Club Buccaneers.

“The Buccaneers host the Kid’s Fishing Derby and the awards picnic at the OHYC as a free event for local children and families, thanks to the generosity of local businesses and club members who contribute prizes for the Derby, and food and supplies for the picnic,” said Peggy Burton, event spokeswoman.

The Oak Harbor Marina is a community sponsor for the derby each year, providing the waterfront location

Travis Westman, 9, and his mom, Jill, competed for the second year in a row at the Kid’s Fishing Derby at the Oak Harbor Marina Saturday.

That’s right. You don’t pay the person who looks after your dog a dime. Instead, you return the favor by looking after their dog or a dog of another group member sometime. Essentially, members of a dog sitting exchange barter services. No money is ever exchanged.

Dog sitting exchanges are springing up in areas across the country. One look online can uncover dozens of possibilities.

To become part of a dog sitting exchange, you must be a responsible dog owner and follow some basic rules.

Generally, your dog must be in good health and well behaved.

Your home must be clean inside and out. You must have all of your dog’s supplies in good

order and their vaccinations up to date.

You must also be willing to put in the time. You can’t just sign up as a member of a dog sitting exchange, get someone to watch your dog while you are on vacation and forever be busy when someone calls on you to watch their dog.

Eventually, the members of the exchange will catch on and ask you to leave the group.

To find out more about dog sitting exchanges and whether there is one near you, conduct a search online and ask around.

Check with dog clubs and organizations. Check with vets and groomers. Check with dog parks and pet stores. Where there are dog owners there may be a dog sitting exchange.

If not, feel free to start one.

Bring together your own group of dog owners, start a website and set up a schedule. Not a dog owner? No problem.

Consider starting a sitting exchange for whatever type of pet you own.

Responsible Pet Ownership

Vacation Bound! No Pets, Please!

By Tresa Erickson You’re going on vacation in a couple of months, but unlike some people, you can’t take your dog with you. They can barely handle short trips to the vet, much less a 10-hour trip to the beach. If you are lucky, you have a friend or relative willing to look after your dog. If not, you may have to look into hiring a pet sitter or boarding your dog. Either way, you’ll have to shell out some bucks, which could leave you with far less to spend on your vacation.

Ugh. If only there were another option. Lucky for you, there is—a dog sitting exchange.

Dog sitting exchanges are the latest in pet sitting services, and remarkably, they are free!

Nobody injured in Oak Harbor shooting Bullets hit house, garage, cars

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Police in Oak Harbor are investigating what appears to be a motiveless shooting early Tuesday morning.

Nobody was injured, though family members were inside a Castilian Way house that was hit by one of the bullets, according to Oak Harbor Police Chief Ed Green.

Investigators have no suspects and don’t know what the motive might

have been.

“We just don’t know at this point,” he said, “but we’re digging into it.”

The unknown gunman fired at least five shots with what police believe was a handgun. One of the bullets hit the house, one hit the garage and the rest struck two parked cars.

The Island County Sheriff’s Office investigated a drive-by shooting of a home on Swantown Road on April 22. Someone fired several shots and hit two houses with what investigators believe was a smallcaliber handgun.

A witness reported seeing a small car leave the scene, but investigators weren’t able to identify any suspects or pos-

sibly motive, according to the sheriff’s spokesman.

Investigators even thought it might have been a case of wrong address.

Green said there’s nothing specific to link the two shootings.

He said the recent case doesn’t appear to be a drive-by shooting because of the bullet pattern. Shots from a moving car tend to follow a line; these shots at the Castilian Way house were grouped.

Green asked that anyone who may have seen anything or has any information on the case to call the ICOM dispatch center at 360-679-9567 and ask to speak with a detective with the Oak Harbor Police Department.

Warm weather brings burn ban No outdoor fires starting on July 15

Island County will be under a modified burn ban starting Tuesday, July 15.

As of 8 a.m. that day, no outdoor burning of natural debris will be permitted, even with a permit, according the notice from the Island County Sheriff’s Office.

Under this modified ban, recreational and cooking fires will be allowed, but only in approved fire pits.

These pits will need to be lined with concrete, like those that can be found in campgrounds.

Outdoor cooking will also be allowed on a propane or briquette barbecues, or in a self-contained camp stove, according to the notice.

The reason for the urn ban is stated as lower-thannormal moisture levels, low humidity and warmer weather, all of which increased the risk of fire.

Historically, July and August are the months Island County has the lowest precipitation, with less

TERI MENDIOLA

than one inch of rain, on average, in those months, according to city-data.com Humidity also reaches a yearly low in those two months, with less than 60 percent in the afternoon.

July and August also account for two of the three sunniest months of the year, with the third being September.

The ban, put officially in place by Sheriff Mark Brown, serving as the Island County Fire Marshal, will start at 8 a.m. July 15, and remain in effect until further notice.

A fire on the Fourth of July caused extensive damage to a house in Oak Harbor. Nobody was injured in the blaze.

5 homeless after house burns on 4th of July Accidental fire not considered fireworks related

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter

Nobody was injured in a fire that left five people in Oak Harbor homeless on the Fourth of July.

The conflagration, however, wasn’t caused by fireworks, according to Fire Chief Ray Merrill.

The origin is still under investigation, he said, but it appears to be accidental.

A neighbor of a Northwest 10th Court residence noticed that the garage was on fire at about 7:30 p.m. and alerted the five adults inside the rambler. They all evacuated safely.

Merrill said the Oak Harbor Fire Department responded, with mutual aid from the Whidbey Island Naval Air Station fire department and North Whidbey Fire and Rescue. It took about 20 minutes to get the blaze under control.

Merrill said the fire started in the attached garage and spread into the attic, but firefighters managed to stop it

from getting inside the house except for one small area where the ceiling gave way.

Yet the fire caused heat and smoke damage throughout the small house. Merrill estimated the damage at about $125,000.

The American Red Cross provided the displaced residents with housing for a couple of nights, but they are now living with relatives, Merrill said.

Fireworks caused little trouble in Oak Harbor this year. Merrill said the only pyrotechnic-related call that firefighters responded to was a very small grass fire.

Restaurant owner starting fresh Tamayo’s recipes come from lifetime of Southeast Asia influences

By RON NEWBERRY

A Staff reporter

s far back as she can r e m e m ber, Jessie Tamayo has prepared her

own food.

It was that way growing up in Laos. It continues today.

“I was so picky,” she said. “I would eat nothing, not even my mom’s cooking. And not just family.

Everywhere.”

It should be no surprise, then, that Tamayo feels right at home in the kitchen of a new restaurant she recently opened in downtown Oak Harbor.

Tamayo’s Restaurant bears her name, a testament to the independent spirit and strong business sense she’s carried since she was a young girl.

Growing up poor in the Southeast Asia country of Laos, Tamayo was the eldest of three siblings and used to help her family

Jessie Tamayo, who grew up in Laos, opened Tamayo’s Restaurant on Pioneer Way in Oak Harbor July 2. The restaurant offers a blend of Southeast Asian cuisine ranging from Vietnamese to Laotian. by selling Thai iced teas, grilled bananas and meatballs at markets at the age of 6.

She went on to work for the government in Laos but kept her hand in business as well, selling motorcycles and ice and even working in the fashion industry.

“I did too many things,” she said.

Now 48, Tamayo is a single mother of three and business owner of her second restaurant in

a new country. She’s lived near Seattle since 2001 and owned a restaurant in Issaquah for the past four years.

She chose Oak Harbor for her latest venture because it felt right in so many ways. Not only did she want a venue with more seating and a more affordable lease, she liked the community, the people and the schools and could see it as a place to retire.

She and her eldest son

Joe, 24, are business partners, but she is the one in the kitchen, preparing dishes from custom recipes that she learned from the many influences she experienced in Laos.

Tamayo calls her cuisine Asian fusion, which is a blend of Laotian, Vietnamese and Thai. She said she doesn’t worry about the number of other Asian restaurants in town because she believes her

dishes are unique. They come from homemade recipes she developed throughout her life, creating her own twist from many influences such as family and friends.

She said she got a taste of all sorts of cuisine living in Southeast Asia, from meals prepared by her parents, who lived in Thailand and moved to Laos; her stepfather, who is from the Phillipines; to a Vietnamese neighbor and brother-inlaw.

“That’s why my food is different,” she said.

Brenda Pike, co-owner of Wild Magnolia gift shop across the street, has been impressed.

“It’s very fresh,” Pike said. “I’ve been here almost every day since she’s opened.”

Tamayo’s, located at 800 S.E. Pioneer Way at the former site of Kakies Bakery, opened its doors July 2.

The restaurant is open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.

Tamayo said long hours, sometimes 18-hour days, don’t bother her and don’t compare to the hectic work life she experienced in Laos.

She’s driven to succeed and said she’s happy to serve customers on Whidbey Island. She travels to Seattle often to get the specialty ingredients and produce she needs for dishes that range from mild to very hot.

“Everything I do, I put all of my heart into it,” she said.

County study to research speed concerns

By JANIS REID Staff reporter

Speed limits on roads throughout Island County will be examined in a study this fall in response to petitions filed by residents.

The speed study, which occurs annually according to need, will respond to residents’ requests for reduced speed limits and, in a couple cases, speed increases.

Through a $1.5 million road improvement grant, the county has begun posting speed limit signs on roads throughout the county that were previously unmarked, according to Assistant County Engineer Connie Bowers.

These signs were placed on North Whidbey and Camano Island, but the county is still in the process of placing signs on unmarked roads on South and Central Whidbey.

The default of these rural roads is 50 mph.

Some of this year’s petitioners were not aware of the speed limit on these roads and are requesting they be reduced, Bowers said.

Island County’s Public Works Department received

approval this month from the Island County commissioners.

The road segments Public Works is planning to evaluate for speed reductions include the following: n Hunt Road — Crescent Harbor Road to Fakkema Road n Engle Road — Coupeville town limits to Fort Casey Road n Terry Road — Coupeville town limits to a half-mile east n Mutiny Bay Road — State Highway 525 to Bush Point Road n Bush Point Road — Highway 525 to a half-mile west n Becker Road — Bayview Road to end of county road n Coles Road — Strider Road to Highway 525 n Langley Road — Near Waterman’s Mill n French Road — Maxwelton Road to Cultus Bay Road n Juniper Beach Drive — Smith Road to Highway 532 There are also two segments where the county will consider a possible increase in the speed limit: n Smugglers Cove Road

After fulfilling his 190day contract as the interim assistant superintendent of the Oak Harbor School District, Karst Brandsma has returned home to Everett, Wash., to enjoy time with his grandkids, traveling and working on house projects.

This past year with the Oak Harbor School District was his 37th year in public education.

Brandsma retired from full-time work in 2009 as the superintendent of the Everett School District. Since then, he has helped out a few districts with temporary positions, like being the whidbey improv team

“That experience really helped when we were going to make changes and decisions, because he could bring to the table multiple perspectives,” said Lance Gibbon, the superintendent of OHSD. “People in Oak Harbor have asked me (what my next step is),” Brandsma said. “In all seriousness, I told them that after working in such a wonderful school district in Oak Harbor, I’ll be very selective.”

Domestic Violence Affects Us All

A

t this time last year, most of us were excitedly planning for summer vacations, home improvement projects and BBQs. But for three Washington women – Sheila Asselin, Brenda Lee Bail and Amanda Blanchard –July brought an end to all those things.

Last July, Sheila, 57, was killed by her husband. Brenda Lee, 48, was strangled by her fiancé. Amanda, 41, was killed by her fiancé days before her wedding. All three were victims of domestic violence. In 2013, 35 people in Washington – including three children – were killed as a result of domestic violence. Thousands more endure daily verbal, physical and sexual abuse.

Hunt Road on North Whidbey is one of several county roads to be studied this fall for speed limit adjustment.

— Highway 525 to Lagoon Point Road n Bayview Road — Highway 525 to Ewing Road After the data is collected, Island County Public Works staff will formulate recommendations for the speed

limit on each road segment, according to Island County Traffic Engineer Spencer Keane.

The engineering recommendations will be presented to the Board of Commissioners for further

review and discussion.

If the board agrees to move forward with the proposed changes to the speed limits, ordinances to change County Code will be drafted and a public hearing will be scheduled.

sure,” Gibbon added. “I really appreciated … (the) integrity and character that he brought to our team.”

The person chosen to fill the role of assistant superintendent on a more permanent basis, Steven King, has received Brandsma’s seal of

approval.

“I think he not only has the background and experience, he also has been involved in a quality program, which I think is going to add to the success,” Brandsma said.

Domestic violence touches more people than you may realize including children and men. Some are able to break away from the destructive cycle, but too many often die trapped in it.

Deciding to leave is one of the most risky and terrifying decision most victims will ever make. It’s a decision some victims will only get to make once. Imagine picking up the phone and making a call to someone you hope can provide a safe place to flee and being told there’s no room. That’s the reality for tens of thousands of victims every day.

That’s why supporting organizations like the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence is so important. They make sure victims have a safe place to turn and provide important prevention tools for teaching our sons and daughters how to develop healthy relationships, training ourselves to identify signs of abuse among our coworkers, friends and family, and helping abusers break the cycle.

I’ve seen how much of a difference every dollar makes for groups like WSCADV. Their Refuse To Abuse 5k is an easy way to raise awareness and resources for an organization that provides a lifeline to thousands of families every year.

If you can’t join the 5k, I encourage you to learn more about identifying the signs of DV and how to help. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is a 24-hour resource to keep handy if you know someone in danger – 800.799.7233.

IN OUR OPINION

OH Fourth creates memories that we all can treasure Members of the Whidbey News-Times, Whidbey Examiner, South Whidbey Record and Whidbey Crosswind staffs marched this past Saturday in Oak Harbor’s Fourth of July parade.

What a fun and amazing experience.

As we walked from the staging area near the marina to the “finish line” in front of Ace Hardware, it was great to see such a large turnout and to recognize some faces in the crowd.

The lively parade, carnival at Windjammer Park and fireworks display in the evening made for as close to a perfect day as a family could hope for.

Oak Harbor’s annual Fourth of July tradition is one that has stood the test of time — it even seems to get better with age.

The parade route, which started near the marina and wound past Flinstone Park and the bus station, was highly enjoyable.

The cool breezes that swept over the crowd and parade entries — and the sparkling water of the bay — served as reminders as to why Whidbey Island is such a magical place to live and is consistently rated nationally as a great place to live.

Such an event doesn’t happen without some hard work and dedication. In this case, it’s the Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce that excels at putting on a celebration that draws people from near and far.

The whole event seemed perfectly organized and seamless in its transitions.

Parade participants had absolutely no problems or delays getting to the staging area, each entry’s position was clearly identified and the processional went off without any hitches.

As usual, the carnival offered clean, safe family enjoyment.

The fireworks display, made possible by Dan Ollis’ Whidbey Coffee and other generous contributors, was a marvel that lit up the night sky.

It was a fitting grand finale to a day that was spectacular overall.

Most of all, it was the people who made the event special and unique.

You could see the joy in children’s faces and feel and hear the appreciation in the applause from the onlookers.

Once again, well done, Oak Harbor. The 2014 Fourth of July celebration in Oak Harbor is one that will be remembered fondly by many for years to come.

This year, the Buccaneers registered nearly 100 kids in the Fishing Derby and hosted their family members and friends to a free picnic lunch and awards presentation at the Oak Harbor Yacht Club.

We are very proud to say that everyone got a free lunch and that no child left without a grand prize or gift bag.

Each year, the Buccaneers ask our hometown businesses to participate as event sponsors by contributing “age appropriate” prizes for boys and girls up to age 12, and the business community responds with great generosity.

Thank you, Oak Harbor, for helping

the Buccaneers bring a day of joy to our local children and their families.

Confused

Keep NAS open, but without Growlers?

Editor, I am writing in response to a letter printed in the June 28 Whidbey NewsTimes.

The letter, submitted by Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve Director Paula Spina, is confusing and misleading.

Spina claims that COER is “neither seeking nor advocating the closing of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station,” yet she also claims that one of COER’s missions is “the relocation of all Growler training out of the north Puget Sound Area.”

Such a relocation of so many aircraft would surely close the NAS Whidbey.

So, keep the base open, but take actions that would close it?

You can’t have it both ways.

Then we come to Spina’s defense of COER President Michael Monson, whose actions have become so extreme

and aggressive that a restraining order was filed to keep him away from a local Realtor.

This would be the Monson who barges into a congressman’s meeting, demands an agenda change, calls a Realtor a snake, grabs the Realtor’s hand and refuses to let it go.

That Spina defends Monson is puzzling enough, but her arguments become even more confusing when she says, “Neither Monson nor the COER ever threatened anyone with violence. We are not the ones advocating rape and arson as political tools.”

Rape and arson? Someone in the OLF controversy advocates their use?

Who? We had better find out soon.

Editor, I have a message for the Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve people: Be careful what you wish for.

MARK Letter highlights Washington’s failing schools THE DATE THE PETRI DISH

By JERRY CORNFIELD State Superintendent of Public Instruction Randy Dorn doesn’t want to use the word “failing” when talking about Washington’s public schools.

So he’s figured out how school district leaders in Washington can exclude it from letters they must send parents at schools deemed as failing to make the grade on a federal curve known as adequate yearly progress.

At the same time, Dorn is trying to convince the U.S. Department of Education to drop its demand that such letters be sent as required under the federal No Child Left

Behind Act. That’s because the rules are such that letters will wind up going to parents of children at pretty much every school in Washington.

Avoiding an “F” requires students to perform at grade level in math and reading.

So when standardized test time rolls around, if a student doesn’t pass in grades 3-8 and 10, their school likely won’t show enough progress to quash the need to notify parents.

It’s a dilemma faced in just about every state. But Washington is the only state facing the letter requirement because the others snagged waivers from the U.S. Department of Education.

This state had such a waiver but lost it this year following a legislative deadlock on including student test scores in the evaluation of teacher performance.

Last month Dorn asked federal education officials to again waive the requirement to send letters. He also pledged to make sure parents are

well aware of their school’s progress, and their options, which include transferring their child to another campus or receive tutoring.

His chances of succeeding are far south of slim. It relies on the feds giving up what is arguably their most punitive tool against states that fall off the NCLB waiver wagon, as Washington did.

The letters publicly shame individual schools and entire districts.

Many parents will be quick studies on what’s really going on behind the scenes. Dorn is worried about consequences in the community if these bureaucratic badges of dishonor are sent out.

“The letters’ misrepresentation that our schools are failing will erode public support for local funding — and, we think, will needlessly and dangerously distract Washington’s voters and lawmakers at a time when transparent, truthful information about our schools is most critical,” Dorn wrote to Assistant Secretary of

Education Deborah Delisle.

In the meantime, Dorn drafted a model letter for districts that doesn’t specifically say schools are failing.

Rather, it explains in some detail the process of how the school did not meet one or more measurements for progress and are considered to be in “Step 1 of Improvement” — a term ripped from the federal law itself.

And it closes by pointing out the fault is not with the school, but with the federal law.

“Please keep in mind the only reason you are receiving this letter this year is because Washington state lost its waiver from NCLB requirements,” he wrote. n Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.com. Contact him at 360-352-8623 or jcornfield@herald net.com

MORE LETTERS TO THE EDITOR CONTINUED FROM A6

I remember that, a number of years ago, Whidbey Island Naval Air Station was on the Navy’s base closure list. It seems as though a lot of people had a different view of the situation then.

Now, unfortunately, I wish it would happen.

Except for big chain stores like Walmart, Home Depot and a few fastfood restaurants, Oak Harbor would die a slow death and blow away like an old, dry leaf.

If you keep whining and harassing the Navy about its training flights at Outlying Field Coupeville, they might just say to heck with it, who needs the constant whining from the public?

Certainly not the Navy.

I’m sure the Navy could relocate all of its squadrons and personnel stationed there to another city that would welcome them with open arms.

I would feel sorry for the true residents of Oak Harbor, those who welcome the Navy’s presence, and all the small businesses that would fail.

But go ahead and keep whining at them, but be careful what you wish for.

Grinding racket

Skydiving business has ‘destroyed’ peace

Editor, We have lived in our current home just south of Oak Harbor since 1992 and we were aware of the local Oak Harbor airport being nearby.

During those 22 years, we have never been bothered by airport noise, even when commercial flights used to operate at the airport.

Beginning in summer 2013, a

skydiving business began operating here. They are open for business 9 a.m. to sunset on weekends.

Now, every weekend, we have to listen to their plane grind its way to a 10,000-foot altitude in a noisy, penetrating spiral and then descend in noisy, spiraling turns back to the airport to pick up another load of customers.

They force their noise on us for 30 minutes of every hour, at times, until late in the evening. They blast out their penetrating brand of grinding racket that can’t be blocked from consciousness while they rasp and claw at the sky for altitude and then descend in a tight spiral over our home.

When we complained to the company, we were told they would like to be good neighbors, but they were within Federal Aviation Regulation guidelines.

Great. So the rural neighborhood peace and quiet is now destroyed so an off-island pilot can drop mainly offisland skydivers — all for the profit of this company.

Obviously, no concern was given to the local residents who would be affected by this noise when local permits and licenses were issued allowing this company to operate.

Thanks a lot, local officials.

Cell phones

Editor, Sacrifice for Freedom …

I took a few moments — OK, maybe an hour — atop Ebey’s Bluff on the Fourth of July to absorb the beauty of our island.

While there, my mind drifted to the current issue of flights at OLF. I was raised in Coupeville and have served 20-plus years in the Navy and Navy Reserves, so I definitely have an opinion.

However, I also recognize and respect the differing opinions of others.

The freedom to be heard is a key foundation of our great country. But is noise the main issue with flights at OLF? No. The main issue comes down to sacrifice. Is it too much to carry some earplugs or pause a conversation while the Growlers are flying?

What are we willing to sacrifice to live in such a great place?

The men and women of our military have chosen to sacrifice everything, and for what? Great pay? Long deployments, missing birthdays and anniversaries? No, and no.

They do it for us, and they do it for love of country. Now that is a sacrifice.

Thank you for what you do and contributing to our island as great friends and neighbors.

John Schisel Coupeville

Enforcing law would bring more revenue Editor, Could the city, county and state police officers and newspapers be doing more to curtail the use of cell phones while driving?

As a casual observer, it seems the number of people in cars and trucks with cell phones to their ears or who are busily looking down, presumably texting, is becoming more rampant and is easily spotted in towns and on the highway.

State law allows a $124 penalty for a first-time offense. Given the numbers, it seems this could add up to a significant amount of money for these jurisdictions.

The local newspapers could investigate the ongoing statistics for this infraction and promote safer driving.

As an additional deterrent, is it possible for insurance companies to begin making insurance coverage null and void if a driver is found to be on a hand-held cell phone at the time of an accident?

Police officers have many important and demanding functions.

However, it seems greater enforcement of this law could be done at almost any/all times without compromising other legitimate duties.

TRIBUTE CONTINUED FROM A1 the late Trudy Sundberg would have loved being there.

“Mom certainly loved art and literature and people and music and politics,” Whitsitt said.

“If you look around this crowd, all of those things are represented here. It’s a real honor to be her daughter and to be here dedicating this beautiful sculpture.”

About two dozen people attended the dedication that paid tribute to retired Oak Harbor High School English teachers Pat Hawley, Tom Carroll, Mary Ann Funk and Sundberg.

The sculpture, created by former high school art teacher Richard Nash, was donated to the City of Oak Harbor by former Whidbey News-Times co-owner and publisher Wallie Funk, who had bought the piece in October 2012 from Matzke Fine Art Gallery and Sculpture Garden on Camano Island.

LASER CONTINUED FROM A1 arrest of anyone who points lasers at aircraft statewide.

The Seattle Division of the FBI is partnering with the Port of Seattle Police Department to deter people from pointing lasers at aircraft, but the program extends to the entire state of Washington, according FBI spokesperson Ayn Deitrich.

The reward is available for 90 days starting June 3.

A laser-pointing incident at NAS Whidbey was reported late last month to the Island County Sheriff’s Department.

At 4:32 p.m. Wednesday, June 25, an aircraft stationed at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station reported “a laser being flashed at them” when flying over the Ault Field Road and Langley Boulevard area.

Sheriff Mark Brown said lasing incidents don’t happen

SEWER CONTINUED FROM A1 closer to a site plan for the 2.5-acre facility, said city Engineer Joe Stowell.

“We hope to refine the location that the treatment plant is going so the project can move forward,” he said.

The city purchased the Whidbey Island Bank building on Pioneer Way in order to build the treatment plant in the back parking lot, which borders the waterfront Windjammer Park. The first phase of the project was estimated to cost about $68 million.

The city already has a sewage treatment plant in the middle of the park, which made many residents sensitive about the prospects of a new malodorous facility or

“He wasn’t sure what he was going to do with it at the time,” said Nash, now a full-time abstract artist. “It ended up here for a very good reason.”

The sculpture is surrounded by trees in a tidy, shady garden spot landscaped by the Oak Harbor Garden Club and Nash in the northwest section of the park.

“It is going to be seen by a lot of people,” said Wallie Funk, who was among the speakers during the ceremony.

“I am just overwhelmed with it, with its location, with the whole layout, the whole design and for the fact that it is honoring a group of people I’ve been familiar with almost all my life.”

One of the teachers was Funk’s wife, Mary Ann, who passed away in 2008.

Of the four honored teachers, the only one still living is Hawley, the former drama teacher who also attended the ceremony and shared stories about the other three.

“The honor of being in such illustrious company is beyond anything I could have

often but are taken very seriously.

“I consider it a very serious crime,” Brown said. “Public safety is completely threatened when that happens.

Anybody who directs a laser at an aircraft for any reason can expect to be prosecuted both federally and by the state.”

It is also illegal to point lasers at law enforcement and fire and rescue personnel, Brown said.

Lasing can be caused by something as small as a cheap laser pointer or as advanced a weapon’s scoping mechanism, which is why aviators take it so seriously, according to Mike Welding, public affairs officer for NAS Whidbey. Laser-pointing at an aircraft can also negatively distract a flight crew.

“We just want to make sure people know that when they do this, they are breaking the law,” Welding said. “It presents a danger to aviators.”

This year, the FBI has received reports of 32 incidents of lasing experienced by aircraft in Washington state, with 19 of those near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, according to an FBI news release.

As part of the national campaign to educate the public, the FBI is partnering with the Federal Aviation Administration, the Air Line Pilots Association International, law enforcement at all levels nationally and internationally, and school resource officers.

“I can’t stress enough how dangerous and irresponsible it is to point a laser at an aircraft,” said FAA Administrator Michael Huerta in a prepared news release. “We know that targeted enforcement has succeeded in driving down laser incidents in a number of cities, and we’ll continue to partner with law enforcement to address this problem nationwide.”

the thought of losing more parkland to sewage treatment.

City leaders repeatedly maintained that the new plant would be virtually odor free due to the new technology of sewage treatment. City Council members and the mayor promised there would be no loss of park space.

Mayor Scott Dudley recently reiterated that there will be “no net loss” of park land even if the plant protrudes into the park. He pointed out that the aging — and sometimes fetid — sewage treatment plant will be largely removed once the new plant comes online, creating new park space nearer the water and more breathable air.

Another wrinkle in the process is that a nearby employer has a parking easement on a portion of the city’s property behind the bank. Stowell

said approving a site plan will allow the city to move forward with resolving the issue.

Stowell said the city’s staff will be presenting a preferred site plan and an alternative at the meeting; the plans will decide exactly where the components of the treatment facility will be located.

The proposals, he said, were created with both technical requirements and public opinion in mind.

The city held an open house earlier this year; more recently, city staff and consulting engineers held “a community design charrette” in which residents and stakeholders studied the issue in depth.

Stowell said he hopes to have a decision from council members next February about the actual architecture of the buildings.

ever expected,” Hawley said. “They were legends, literally, in their own time.”

Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley thanked Funk for his generosity in sharing the sculpture with the Oak Harbor community.

“This is a gift that keeps on giving,” Dudley said. “Our citizens here in the City of Oak Harbor will be able to enjoy this for many years. Individuals who visit our city from outside the state will get to enjoy its presence.”

Hawley, who still lives in Oak Harbor, said she is pleased to see such a collaboration between the city and a commitment to public art.

“We have gone into a higher league among cities,” she said. “That’s what distinguishes a lot of places is to have permanent art collections.”

Whitsitt, who now lives in Seattle, shared childhood memories of coming to the park and sitting on the rooftop of the family car to watch the fireworks on the Fourth of July.

When she comes back now, she’ll have a quiet place to visit and a special piece of artwork to

Pat Hawley, a retired English and drama teacher at Oak Harbor High School, said she felt honored to be part of ‘illustrious company.’ admire and reflect.

“It really brings a lot of immortality, I think, to these teachers,” she said.

GIPSON CONTINUED FROM A1 accused of any inappropriate behavior toward any patient.”

Because the administration believes that Gipson is innocent of any wrongdoing, she is currently on the job, according to Rose.

“Whidbey General is confident that Dr. Gipson will continue to perform her duties as chief nursing officer and her good work in support of community health,” Rose wrote. “Dr. Gipson has been active improving access to safe and quality health care as well as improving mental health services for island residents.”

Rose also said that Gipson did not technically fire a nurse in connection with the allegations.

The nurse worked for a nursing agency, not the hospital.

The Nursing Commission, which is under the state Department of Health, is also conducting an investigation.

Norrie wrote that Gipson and the hospital’s security officer first called 911 dispatch to report that an unruly patient had assaulted a nurse May 13, but Gipson herself ended up being investigated for allegedly assaulting the same patient.

Gipson claimed in her 911 call that the nurse was assaulted seven hours earlier and that the nurse was being X-rayed in the emergency room, Norrie wrote.

A few minutes after Gipson’s call, a man called 911 to report that a different nurse, later identified as Gipson, had assaulted his 30-year-old daughter, according to Norrie’s report.

Norrie investigated and spoke with the nurse who was allegedly injured in the assault.

The woman said the patient had pushed her shoulder, but “did not report going to the ER at that time” and “seemed uninterested in the assault on her.”

“She did not mention getting ER treatment and did not seem upset about the incident,” Norrie wrote.

It was clear from the report that the patient was combative. The nurses called a “code gray” and placed the woman in four-point restraints on a bed, the report states.

Two other nurses, a nursing assistant and the patient herself, however, provided Norrie with different descriptions

of how Gipson alleged put her hands on the restrained patient.

The alleged victim claimed that Gipson “purposely” choked her on the neck. She said it hurt and she told Gipson to stop, Norrie wrote in his report.

One nurse claimed that she saw Gipson placing her hands around the restrained woman’s face. The nurse claimed the patient said Gipson was hurting her and told her to stop, but Gipson said she wouldn’t until the patient calmed down, according to the report.

The nurse told Norrie she confronted Gipson outside the room about the alleged assault. Gipson first said she was trying to clear the patient’s airway and then said she was trying to keep her from spitting, though the nurse claimed there were “no threats or other signs” that the patient was going to spit, Norrie wrote.

Later, Gipson told the nurse, “You can sign your patients off and you’re done here,” the report states.

A nursing assistant who was also in the room claimed that Gipson grabbed the woman’s neck and “tightly clenched her hand,” the marshal wrote.

The assistant claimed that Gipson told the patient to calm down and the patient cried out that Gipson was hurting her, the report states.

Another nurse who witnessed the alleged incident said Gipson squeezed the patient’s face tightly for at least one to two minutes; the nurse left the room during the incident, Norrie’s report states.

That woman said she later overheard Gipson saying that she had to “release” a nurse because she didn’t know how to handle psychiatric patients and because the nurse had threatened to report her to the state, according to Norrie’s report.

Gipson’ attorney told Norrie that she would not speak to him about the allegations made against her.

The hospital administration noted that violence against hospital staff has been on the rise nationally and Whidbey General isn’t immune to this trend.

“Violent patients require one-on-one care and may erupt with verbal or physical assault without warning, often requiring physical intervention to protect patients and staff from harm,” Rose said in her prepared statement.

“WGH has also engaged a security firm to enhance protection efforts for staff, patients and visitors alike.”

3 Little League teams set for state tournaments

By JIM WALLER Sports editor

The North Whidbey Little League 9/10 baseball team squeaked out a 10-9 win over Central Whidbey to capture the District 11 championship in Sedro-Woolley Thursday, July 3, and earn a trip to the state tournament.

The Central/South Whidbey 9/10 softball team already qualified for state, and another Whidbey team is assured of a state berth.

In junior (13/14) softball, Central and North Whidbey are battling in a best-of-three series at Coupeville High School to determine the district champion. Central Whidbey won the opener 14-2 Monday. The teams squared off again Tuesday, but results were not available at press time. If necessary, the third game will be 6 p.m.

Wednesday.

One other North Whidbey team still has a chance to grab a state slot.

The 10/11 all-star team hosts Sedro-Woolley in a best-of-three series beginning at 1 p.m. Saturday, July 12, at Windjammer Park.

The second game is 1 p.m.

Sunday, and the third game, if necessary, will be 6 p.m.

Monday.

The 9/10 state baseball tournament is at Badger Mountain Park in Richland.

North Whidbey plays the District 1 champ at 1 p.m.

Saturday.

The 9/10 state softball tournament also opens Saturday when Central/South Whidbey plays Woodinville at 3 p.m. in Asotin.

The junior softball state playoffs begin Saturday as well when the Whidbey winner meets Ridgefield at 4 p.m. at Meridian Park in Shoreline.

If North Whidbey takes the 10/11 district baseball crown, it will head to Chehalis to meet the District 1 titlist at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, July 19.

Three local teams just missed state trips, losing in the district finals Thursday, July 3.

Central Whidbey was knocked out by North Whidbey in the 9/10 baseball finals, North Whidbey lost 3-1 to Burlington in 11/12 baseball and the Whidbey Junior baseball team fell 10-0

to Sedro-Woolley in its championship game.

In non-Little League action, the Oak Harbor Legion baseball team finished second in the Port Angeles Tournament last weekend.

Doughty again singled in Johnson, who scored three runs, in the seventh for the final run.

Anthony Stewart, Robert Herring and Quentin Tungate added singles; Trent Benson earned the win.

Oak Harbor scored six runs in the fifth inning to break open the Wilder Junior game.

Three walks, three hit batters and singles by Johnson and Tyler Snavely fueled the inning.

Snavely picked up the pitching win.

Benson had a single and double; Johnson added two singles.

Tungate, Snavely and Dylan Bailey recorded the other Oak Harbor hits.

9/10 Baseball North Whidbey’s whiteknuckle ride to the title in Sedro-Woolley finished with a fourth-straight one-run win and second win over Central Whidbey by the identical score of 10-9.

North Whidbey built leads of 8-2 and 10-6 and then hung on.

With one out in the sixth, Central Whidbey loaded the bases with the help of base hits by Drake Borden and Luke Vrable and pushed across three runs.

Jordan Ronning, who faced a similar situation in the first game with Central Whidbey, took over on the mound for North Whidbey and recorded the final two outs to lock up the championship.

Cody Byars led the North Whidbey offense with two hits and two walks.

Head coach Mark Tanner is assisted by Mike Benjamin and Casey Richardson.

11/12 Baseball North Whidbey did something no one else in the tournament could ---- gave Burlington a scare.

Burlington entered the title game after winning its first three games by an average score of 19-0.

North Whidbey pitcher Noah Miller held highscoring Burlington scoreless through the first three innings, striking out six.

Burlington finally touched Miller in the fourth inning, and Logan Gonzales took over on the mound with the bases loaded and one out.

Gonzales finished the game and recorded two strike outs.

Neither team generated much offense and most of the highlights came from the defensive side.

North Whidbey’s Nick Krantz made a grab of a pop fly along the fence, George Dailey completed several nice plays at shortstop and Andrew Dixon snared a line drive at first base.

Central Whidbey’s Hope Lodell jumps out of the way of an inside pitch in her team’s 14-2 win over North Whidbey in the district 13/14 softball tournament Monday.

North Whidbey finished with only two hits, singles by Aiden McCarthy and Austin Boesch.

The North Whidbey coaches are Joe Buenaventura, Todd Krantz and Jerry Newton.

13/14 Softball Central Whidbey built a 4-0 lead heading into the fourth inning and then erupted for eight runs to cement the win.

The big inning started with four consecutive hits, singles

by Hope Lodell, Lauren Rose, Katrina McGranahan and Sarah Wright. After an error and an out, a double by Veronica Crownover and a single by Robin Cedillo continued the rally. Rose added another hit, a double, to collect the seventh hit in the inning.

North Whidbey scored both its runs in the fifth inning.

Walks to Sam Payne, Brooke Wilson and Yesenia Keiser loaded the bases, then Megan Flood singled in two runs.

Central Whidbey scored once in the first. With two outs, McGranahan doubled and scored on an error.

In the third, Central Whidbey added three runs.

The big blast was a two-run triple by Wright.

The Wildcats, a junior

Legion team, lost to Wilder of Port Angeles’ senior team 7-2 in the championship game of the Dick Brown Memorial Firecracker Tournament in Port Angeles Sunday, July 6.

The second-place finish was another strong tournament performance for Oak Harbor, which finished second and first in the previous two tournaments.

Oak Harbor opened the Port Angeles tournament with a 5-1 win over Klahowya of Silverdale Saturday, then topped Wilder’s junior team 10-4 later that day.

Sunday, the Wildcats defeated Sandberg of Olympia 9-4 and then lost to Wilder Senior 10-2 in pool play.

Though Oak Harbor dropped that final pool game, it had the second-best record and earned a spot in the finals and another crack at Wilder Senior.

In the win over Klahowya, Clay Doughty singled in Kevyn Johnson, who had also singled, for the first run in the first inning.

Oak Harbor added three runs in the fifth thanks to three hit batters, a walk and an error.

Oak Harbor scored a run in the first inning and six in the second to jump on Sandberg early.

The six-run second started with consecutive singles by Danny Wolfe, Tungate and Snavely. After a walk and an error, base hits by Johnson and Benson finished the big inning.

Oak Harbor plated two more runs in the fifth behind hits by Johnson and Stewart.

Starter Wolfe earned the win.

Johnson had two hits and scored three runs; Stewart, Benson, Wolfe, Tungate and Snavely all singled.

In the first game with Wilder Senior, Oak Harbor trimmed the score to 5-2 with a pair of runs in the third when Bailey, who finished with three walks, scored on a balk and Johnson scored on a wild pitch.

Patriotism goes on display as Oak Harbor celebrates Independence Day

American flags were everywhere along Bayshore Drive and Pioneer Way.

Popular with kids was the Pigfest pig that teased the Aug. 10 event.

Candy scattered along streets caused all sorts of reactions from children.

Photos by Ron Newberry/Whidbey News-Times

Spectators paid tribute to the Navy Color Guard as it marched along Pioneer Way during the grand parade. Attendance was estimated between 3,000-4,000.

Not everyone took their roles seriously in the parade.

Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley, far left, and Capt. Mike Nortier, Commanding Officer of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, watch the parade go by. Announcing parade entries as they passed was Oak Harbor Chamber of Commerce President Jason McFadyen, far right.

This young girl had as much fun tossing candy as she did eating it.
