Deputy performs CPR, revives crab fisherman Sequim Gazette staff

by MATTHEW NASH Months after tragedy struck the Oso community with the devastating mudslide on March 22, a few locals have found a way to help residents affected by the disaster.

On June 21, three of the four Sequim Irrigation Festival royalty and two volunteers set out for Oso to donate the royalty’s former 1998 Dodge Caravan to a local pastor for transporting children and seniors.

Tour & Fair operated by the Sequim Lavender Farmers Association.

Earlier this summer, farmers from both organizations said lavender is in pristine condition for U-cut and products. What hasn’t bloomed already should be coming out this week or next, many farmers said.

As for the festivities, there are some principal differences between events to note.

With the Sequim Lavender Festival, its growers association operates a free, self-guided farm tour with seven farms and the free Street Fair

Clallam County deputy Mark Millet and other medical personnel are being credited with helping save the life of a Sequim resident Thursday evening, July 10, after performing CPR on Darrel Brewer, a crab fisherman, at the old Oyster House boat launch off Marine Drive.

Millet responded to an “unresponsive male” call at the boat launch in the Dungeness area at 7 p.m.; he arrived to find Brewer, 67, lying near the water being attended to by three men. Brewer MILLET appeared to have had a heart attack. The three men were attempting to perform CPR; Millet took over and was able to revive Brewer and eventually was assisted by Fire District 3 volunteers and medics.

Brewer was transported to the Olympic Medical Center and was in serious but stable condition.

The Museum & Arts Center in Sequim has been chosen as one of 2,000 museums across the nation and U.S. territories to be named a Blue Star Museum.

The Blue Star program is a collaboration of The National Endowment for the Arts, Department of Defense and Blue Star Families as an appreciation for active duty military and family members.

“This is huge for us here in Sequim because we are very small and are staffed totally by volunteers,” said volunteer spokesman Judy Reandeau Stipe, who applied for the program.

This summer the MAC will be listed worldwide to military families to let them what is offered here.

“Our mastodon exhibit is the biggest draw for visitors and many come long distances to see the display, so although we do not charge admission, this is a wonderful opportunity to let the world know about Sequim’s museum,” Stipe said. “We are proud to be listed with places like The Burke Museum of Natural

History and the Museum of Flight, both in the Seattle area.”

Blue Star museums offer free access to more than a million children who have at least one parent deployed or any active duty military family. It gives them the opportunity, on limited family incomes, to experience a personal contact with history, science, nature and art. The program, now in its fifth year, also serves as vacation destinations for reunited families traveling to new assignments.

corrections A photo and update on the annual Tribal Canoe Journey titled “Journey Stops in Jamestown” in the Sequim Gazette (July 2, page A-5) used an incorrect term when introducing the individuals in photograph. The correct title for those within the canoe is the “pullers.”

In the July 2 edition, the date of a photo of Bud and Jack Collins at Harvey Field in Snohomish (“Local author claims to be son of D.B. Cooper,” page A-6) was listed incorrectly; it should be 1967. Also, the photograph was taken after both brothers had completed a jump.

A 21-year-old Sequim resident was hospitalized after a rollover on Sunday, July 13.

At about 4:40 p.m. that day, deputies from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office responded to the area of River Road and Happy Valley Road for a rollover motor vehicle accident. Deputies found Aldo Garcia of Sequim inside of his vehicle, suffering from injuries sustained from the incident.

According to the sheriff’s office, Garcia was traveling northbound on River Road and failed to negotiate the corner prior to the intersection of River Road and Happy Valley Road. He overcorrected his vehicle, causing his 1998 Ford Explorer to roll over several times.

If the moon appeared to be bigger and brighter last week, that wasn’t your eyes playing tricks. Sequim-Dungeness Valley residents got an eyeful of a “supermoon” on July 12. The scientific term for the phenomenon is “perigee moon,” in which a full moon occurs at the closest point to Earth in its elliptical orbit. That means great photo ops and “super” low tides. Get your cameras ready for two more upcoming “supermoon” evenings: Aug. 10 and Sept. 19. From left are contributions from: Sharla Dewan and Lane Kingsbery; Bob Lampert and Joanie Schmoll.

City council votes down financial support for downtown events Albert Haller Playfields bathroom plan goes forward

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

After lobbying by local businesses for a $5,000 proposal to promote and develop downtown events more, a majority of city councilors shot down the idea Monday night with some contention.

City Councilor Ted Miller said he supports the objective of the plan, but felt it’s misusing taxpayers’ money and favors certain businesses.

“It’s not the city’s job to pick winners and losers,” he said.

“It sets a bad precedent.”

City Councilor Ken Hays, who voted in favor of the proposal, said he finds it important the city promotes its own objectives, such as within its Downtown Plan.

“The downtown core is heart of this community and critical to the vibrancy of

the city,” Hays said. “To deny that is being in denial.”

“I deny that,” Miller said.

Business hays owners with the Merchants Group under the Sequim-Dungeness Valley Chamber of Commerce approached councilors originally in June saying their intent was to increase life downtown.

The proposal would have opened up Centennial Place at the corner of Washington Street and Sequim Avenue and support some expenditures for special events. It also would allow city licensed mobile food vendors, which is currently one business, at Centennial Place during eight special events such as the Family Day with Santa Downtown and the Community Tree Lighting.

Elements of the $5,000 contract would include marketing, printing, decorative elements, hiring local musicians and event support.

Mayor Candace Pratt and

Neighborhood pot meeting slated for Monday evening

Hays were the only ones to vote in favor of the proposal.

Councilor Laura Dubois said she was struggling with her decision because she supports the downtown events but said after looking in the Downtown Plan there wasn’t any mention of using public funds for events like this.

Shelli Robb-Kahler, executive director of the chamber of commerce, hopes the city will help in the future.

“Since the city council clearly voted no to supporting the Merchants Group’s request, but indicated that robb-kahler it is appropriate to spend city funds to support events to showcase Sequim and help to make downtown as vibrant and active as possible, while supporting local shopping, I am hopeful the city will step forward in allocating their resources to support and grow such events moving forward,” she said.

Bathrooms a go at Haller Playfields

Plans for the second phase of the Albert Haller Playfields are going through with some slight modifications.

Councilors gave the unanimous go ahead for Sequim Family Advocates, a nonprofit which fundraised and petitioned for the fields to alleviate wear on other playfields in Sequim, to begin construction following permitting procedures at the the Water Reuse Demonstration Site.

Dave Shreffler with the advocacy group said they’ve withdrawn 64 proposed onsite parking spaces behind the James Center for Performing Arts due to not having the funding resources (about $115,00) to pay for them.

Still in the plans are constructing 29 chipsealed parking spaces on the North Rhodefer Road on the rightof-way and a 1,249-squarefoot restroom and storage building west of the playfields.

A portion of the Olympic Discovery Trail also will be realigned at the vehicle

entrance to the playfields.

Joe Irvin, city special projects manager, said the advocacy group is required to use reused water in the building, its roof be made of standing seam metal, and the cul-desac drop-off-area be made with pervious pavement.

He estimates with the new building, the city will have almost 4 hours of extra janitorial services per week at a cost of about $4,000 a year and $2,500 more in toiletry supplies a year. Annual maintenance is to be determined.

Nearby docents will monitor and lock up the bathrooms at night, Irvin said.

Shreffler said they’ll tentatively begin construction mid- to late August and be finished by the end of the year.

Health and Human services contracts Following the end of a

three-year contract with its health and human service contract agencies, the council is considering changes to the process.

Hays and pro tem mayorf Dennis Smith agreed to sit on a committee to consider new and old contracts and approval procedures for approval in the city’s 2015 budget. In 2011, councilors voted to allocate $73,500 among seven agencies from 2012-2014.

In each of those three years of contracted services, the Boys & Girls Club received $18,750, Dungeness Valley Health & Wellness Clinic $22,500, Healthy Families $11,250, and Parenting Matters, Shipley Center, Serenity House and Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County $5,250 each but VHOCC was denied funding due to concerns over grant qualifications.

Littlejohn From page A-1

Diclosure Commission report. However, the seven contributions of $7,500 were made by Littlejohn personally and not his employees after all, but only under the guise of their names.

Public Disclosure Commission officials followed up on a complaint made to the commission by Michael DeRousie, organizer of the Committee to Support Clallam County Fire District 2.

Upon further investigation

by Public Disclosure Commission Compliance officers, the commission penalized Littlejohn with a $60,000 fine, which Littlejohn agreed to pay and admitted his actions.

“I was totally shocked by the amount (of the penalty),” Littlejohn said. “This is not something I’ve been involved in before so I guess lesson learned.”

Half of the penalty was suspended, but in turn requires Littlejohn to pay $4,000 toward the investigative cost to the Public Disclosure Commission, pay the remaining $30,000 within 60 days — funds go to the state’s general fund — and not commit the same violation within the next four years, said Lori Anderson, Public Disclosure Commission communications and training officer.

“It’s a serious violation of the disclosure laws,” Anderson said. “When determining the penalty amount the commission looks at similar cases.”

Because Littlejohn admitted he was in violation of the campaign disclosure laws and wanted to work with the Public Disclosure Commission toward a settlement, Anderson said his case was settled at the staff level and never went through the hearing process.

“I knew what I was doing, but I didn’t realize it was such a big deal,” Littlejohn said.

“But what’s done is done and I can only learn my lesson and go on.”

Littlejohn owns Olympic Ambulance, Sherwood Assisted Living and Olympic Oxygen, and made contributions using the names of employees from all three business with the “permission of six of the seven employees,” according the Public Disclosure Commission report.

The six employees that gave Littlejohn their permission were unaware there is a prohibition against making contributions in the name of another person.

“Littlejohn stated that he made the contributions in the names of others, rather than in his own name because he was trying to ‘keep a low profile,’” according to a June 5 interview with Littlejohn included in the Public Disclosure Commission report.

“He stated the ballot measure was a threat to some of his businesses.”

Although Littlejohn’s relationship with Fire District 2 officials had “a pretty rocky start,” the two entities are working together now and have “hammered out an agreement and are looking for a good relationship,” Littlejohn said.

Primary ballots go to mail today Today, July 16, the county Auditor’s Office will be mailing ballots to 46,577 registered voters in Clallam County. Ballots must be voted and mailed or placed in a ballot drop box no later than Aug. 5.

While all voters will get to vote on state legislators and Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney positions, only those voters in Clallam County Commissioner District 3 are eligible to nominate the two candidates to appear on the November general election ballot; all county voters select the new commissioner in November. If a ballot is not received, voters may contact the Auditor’s Office at 417-2217 for a replacement ballot or come to the Auditor’s Office in the Clallam County Courthouse in Port Angeles.

Gu Fifth- and sixth-graders let loose in a water fight on their last day of First Baptist Church Sequim’s vacation bible school. Sequim Gazette photos by Alana Linderoth

On a misson ... in Sequim South Carolina youth missions team visits First Baptist Church For the third consecutive year the First Baptist Church Sequim has hosted a youth missions team from out of state.

This year a group of nine youths and five adults from South Carolina visited Sequim to participate in the church’s weeklong vacation bible school.

“It’s a stretching experience for everyone involved,” Jeanne Miller said, member of First Baptist Church Sequim. “We are a smaller church with older members so we couldn’t do the same quality of camp without the help of the visiting church. It’s a

wonderful partnership.”

In 2011, First Bap tist Church Sequim’s pastor, Greg Miller, moved to Sequim with his wife because he had a successful transition from a church in Oregon to a younger church – something the Sequim church was in need of, Miller said. “It’s important to maintain a young demographic within the church so the faith is carried on to the

next generation,” Miller said.

Hosting events like the vacation bible school and interacting with mission teams from different areas are a couple of ways Miller hopes to involve more youths.

Every year the vacation bible school has a theme. This year’s theme was “Agency D3,” an investigating spy theme, Jeanne Miller said.

The event is open to kinder-

garten through sixth-grade youths and the week is broken into different age appropriate activities involving crafts, recreation, music and missions. “It has been awesome to see the youth away from our church in a different setting and watching them be bold in what they believe in,” Tara Hartmann said, camp volunteer from Big Stevens Creek Baptist Church in South Carolina.

Forks couple open Sequim storefront

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

At the intersection of Third Avenue and West Washington Street is a new locally owned and operated produce store, Peninsula Produce.

The store is stocked with a variety of fresh vegetables and fruit along with a rack of tie-dyed shirts.

Without much signage yet, Peninsula Produce would be fairly easy to pass by if not for the cedar stump sculptures that catch attention with their roots swirling in the air like tentacles on an octopus.

Peninsula Produce

comes from a mix of producers, including both local and Eastern Washington farmers and from a wholesale company out of Seattle, but as the business develops the Capelles would like to carry primarily local produce. Both organic and non-organic products are available at the store including everything from cherries and golden beets to baby cucumbers and serrano peppers.

One of the main focuses of Peninsula Produce is “getting the most out of the fruits and vegetables,” Rob said. Once produce is beyond its prime, the Capelles will offer a reduced priced section for the produce that is still good for canning, dehydrating or juicing. The owners also hope to get connected with someone locally who raises pigs and could put old produce to good use.

“We want to try to make the produce in here all circle back around as much as possible,” Rob said.

“We would like to offer food and have some venders out front here for the festival,” Rob said.

But the Sequim Lavender Weekend and summer are far from the Capelles’ long-term goal of doing aquaculture farming and hydroponic gardens.

“Eventually we would like to move into aquaculture and we’ll have tanks of live mussels, oysters, crab and fish so people can buy fresh seafood and couple that with hydroponic gardens for growing things like tomatoes,” Rob said.

“Many of the tomatoes and other vegetables we get from places like California are al-

Sali and Rob Capelle are the owners of the new produce store and have big goals for the future, but plan to start small and grow as the business allows. The Capelles are in the midst of finding property to either buy or rent in Sequim, but for now they commute from their home near Forks.

“We’re very excited to be here in Sequim and are looking forward to moving here as soon as we find some property,” Rob said.

Rob already works in Port Angles at Jesse Bay Cabinet Co., but after his wife, Sali searched for work within the area and couldn’t seem to find a good match, they “decided to create a job,” Rob said.

The two had run a retail store in Forks for 11 years and enjoyed the public interaction associated with it so they decided to open up another business, only this time with a focus on produce.

“So far it’s been a learning curve figuring out what people like and don’t like.”

Rob said. “It’s important to us to keep an ear as to what people want and need.”

The produce at the store

Inside Peninsula Produce is a variety of fruit and vegetables supplied by a mix of local farms, Eastern Washington farms and a Seattle wholesaler.

ready grown hydroponically and could just as easily be done in Sequim,” Rob said.

For now however, the Capelles’ energy is directed at getting Peninsula Produce established and stable.

In addition to the fruit and veggies, the couple decided to carry tie-dyed shirts for no other reason than it is just something fun and different to sell and perhaps the shirts will appeal to the wave of retiring baby boomers, Rob said.

To supplement the eclectic combination of produce and tie-dyes, a portion of parking lot of Peninsula Produce is decorated with driftwood and old-growth cedar root wads converted into landscaping sculptures by another Forks resident.

“I think the wood sculptures are what catches most people’s attention,” Rob said.

“It will take a while for people to notice we’re here, but it’s a work in progress and so far it has been a good experience.”

Peninsula Produce is open from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. MondaySaturday and 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

Dental materials keep getting better, both in esthetics and strength. And knowing that there is a mistaken feeling of invulnerability and resistance to any further possible problems with a tooth that has been crowned or capped. It is true that the crown itself, may last forever. However the tooth underneath is still susceptible to the same decay that caused the tooth defect in the first place. At the margin of the crown or cap is tooth, which is capable of decay. Furthermore, the tooth is every bit as prone to periodontal disease as before the crown or cap was placed. So if you have crowns on your teeth, please give them the same proactive prevention attention that they needed before your dental investment of crowns and bridges.

Clallam fire danger level raised to ‘moderate’ Washington The fire danger level in Clallam County has been raised to the “moderate” level by the Department of Natural Resources effective July 10, said Sam Phillips, Chief of Clallam County Fire District 2 and president of the Clallam County Fire Chiefs Association.

Phillips is urging local residents and visitors to be extra careful with ignition sources.

Both Fire District 2 and the City of Port Angeles Fire Department have responded to brush fires in recent days some of which have been close to nearby homes.

“We are entering into a busy fire season and our firefighters need the help of everyone to prevent fires from starting,” said Phillips.

Fire officials urge residents to follow these five safety tips: • Follow the burn ban and curtail all outdoor burning.

• Keep a 30-foot to 100-foot area clear and defensible space around your home free of tall grass, brush and flammable vegetation.

• Remove flammable debris like leaves, pine needles and limbs from around the roof line of your home and outbuildings.

• Trim low hanging limbs and “ladder fuels” up 6-10 feet from the ground.

• Be extra careful outdoors with mowers, barbecues, chainsaws and off-road vehicle exhausts.

County Fire Marshal Sheila Roark Miller has implemented a “burn ban” in Clallam County prohibiting outdoor burning with the exception of “recreational fires” and campfires in established and controlled campgrounds. For more details, see www.

From page A-1 Deon Kapetan, festival chairman, said they made the van delivery before participating in the Marysville Strawberry Festival’s parade.

The Irrigation Festival recently purchased a newer passenger van and decided to find another use for the older van that was donated in 2003 from Carol French.

Through working with the festival’s board of directors and Trinity United Methodist Church, Kapetan was put in touch with the Rev. Sandi McCalley of Darrington United Methodist Church.

“We’re trying to pay it forward,” Kapetan said. “We got the original van donated and our community helps us so much, why wouldn’t we want to pay it forward. We feel really blessed we have as many supporters as we do.”

On their way to Oso to drop

“We’re trying to pay it forward.”

Homeowners also can help firefighters by creating a defensible space around their home and outbuildings. Defensible spaces give firefighters that extra margin to be successful in protecting homes from an approaching wildfire. More fire safety information on defensible space is available from www.clallam.net/Permits/defensiblespace. html.

Fire safety tips can be located at www.clallamfire2.org and downloaded as PDF files.

Clallam County Fire District 2 provides fire suppression and emergency medical service to 9,500 people over 85 square miles outside the city of Port Angeles, serving the communities of Deer Park, Gales Addition, Black Diamond, Dry Creek and Lake Sutherland. Forty volunteer and four full-time firefighter/EMTs respond to an average of 1,000 emergency calls per year.

“It was amazing how there could be miles of destruction and this little innocent house was inches away from destruction.”

TAPIA

Katey Tapia, Sequim Irrigation Festival Queen

off the van, Kapetan said the drive was sobering with debris all around them.

Festival Queen Katey Tapia said it was like a runway of destroyed trees.

“As it seemed to stop there was this little cabin house with a swing set. It was perfectly intact,” she said. “It was amazing how there could be miles of destruction and this little innocent house was inches away from destruction.”

Princess Judi Villella said as they drove by the slide area, she went into question mode.

“I just couldn’t grasp and understand how such a thing could happen especially to villella all the people involved and all of the families,” she said. “It was truly heartbreaking.”

Princess Kaylee Ditlefsen said driving through the area was an important experience for them.

“It really got us to appreciate the community and our hearts went out to the many lives affected by ditlefsen the tragedy,” she said.

However spirits were high, especially with the pastor, Villella said. “You could see (her) excitement. I hope (the van) helps bring people together even more through this rough experience.”

The van was donated with a new battery and some glitter engrained into the upholstery from years of royalty use.

Villella said visiting Oso was a good reminder that anything could happen at any moment.

Princess Kristina Holtrop, who couldn’t make this trip, said by donating the van it shows that Sequim is a giving community.

“It’s a cycle of holtrop friendship,” she said. “People give to us and we want to give to others.”

The royalty continue a busy parade season appearing with their float around Washington.

Afterward, they plan to pursue their individual platforms together. Tapia hopes to work with a local animal group to do a food drive while Holtrop wants to spend a day promoting local, healthier options for Sequim students.

Villella plans to lead a breakfast at the Sequim Prairie Grange to raise funds for a local charity and Ditlefsen wants to host a fundraiser for the Make a Wish Foundation.

This weekend, they’ll appear at the Sequim Lavender Farm Tour & Fair in Carrie Blake Park with their float July 18-20 during Sequim Lavender Weekend.

With a heat wave rapidly increasing fire danger throughout the state, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources is expanding the burn ban from DNR-protected lands in eastern Washington to include those west of the Cascades, the agency announced July 11.

The burn ban will run from today through Sept. 30. It applies to all forestlands under DNR fire protection, which does not include federally owned lands.

“Washington is experiencing high heat and very low humidity, which is creating a dangerous situation,” Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark said. “We are asking everyone to take extra care to avoid any risk of causing a fire.”

This fire season, there already have been 265 fires on DNR-protected lands, with the majority caused by humans. The department protects about 13 million acres throughout the state and operates the state’s largest fire-fighting force with more than 1,000 trained staff.

Workshop details landscaping with area’s native plants Joe Holtrop, Clallam Conservation District’s executive director, details how home gardeners can incorporate native plants into their landscapes at noon Thursday, July 24, in the Clallam County commissioners meeting room of the county courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

Holtrop discusses how native gardens help create more holtrop sustainable landscapes that require less water, less maintenance and contribute to the natural habitats of native fauna. Holtrop has undergraduate and master’s degrees in landscape architecture and a master’s degree in adult education. He has been giving presentations, leading workshops and teaching courses on sustainable landscaping for 25 years.

This presentation is part of the Green Thumbs Garden Tips brown bag series sponsored by the WSU Clallam County Master Gardeners on the second and fourth Thursdays of every month in Port Angeles.

The educational series provides home gardeners with education on gardening topics relevant to planting and maintaining sustainable gardens and landscapes in Clallam County.

Attendees may bring a lunch. The presentations are free and open to the public; however, donations to help offset copying costs for handouts are accepted.

College students offer free diabetes screening On Saturday, July 26, Peninsula College nursing students will join volunteers and staff from the Volunteers in Medicine of the Olympics free clinic to provide free screening for diabetes risk at the Port Angeles Farmers Market.

Diabetes is a dangerous disease. If untreated, it can cause heart disease, stroke, blindness and kidney problems. It can lead to foot and leg amputations, and even death. Diabetes cannot be cured, but it can be controlled.

The event consists of a simple questionnaire developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Janet Oja, lead VIMO diabetes nurse educator, will provide fingerstick blood sugar testing for persons who have a high score on the CDC screener.

Persons found to be at high risk for diabetes will be referred to their health care provider for follow-up or VIMO, if the individual does not have a health care provider. Event organizers hope that screening efforts will boost the number of people who are aware that they are at high risk for diabetes (or even have diabetes) and who talk to their health care provider to find out what they can do about it.

The Port Angeles Farmers Market is open from 10 a.m.2 p.m. every Saturday and is at the Gateway Pavilion in downtown Port Angeles.

For more information about the July 26 diabetes risk screening, contact Zoe Apisdorf, VIMO development coordinator, at 457-4431.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Citizens for SARC SARC is a valuable community facility for all ages — babies to 90+ years old!

When we moved here with our children and grandchildren in 1997 one of the first things we did was join SARC as a family. Why? Because there are healthy activities and outlets for all to enjoy — the wonderful big and small pools, spa and steam room; racquetball and basketball courts, gym, weight and exercise rooms and lots of classes. As a family — and with other friends — we spent countless wonderful hours there. My youngest grandchildren, Wesley and Keaton of Emblem3, even learned to swim there when toddlers!

Now the grandchildren are grown and live out-of-state but I’m still a member enjoying my water aerobics and yoga classes. The friends I’ve made there, the camaraderie, is so important and fun.

SARC is a vital community asset and I believe needs the community’s continued support. It’s where the high school swim team works out and holds its local meets or competitions. ALL second-graders are given swim lessons and learn water safety — so important since it helps prevent accidental drowning in our region surrounded by ocean, lakes and streams. Plus, parents have the option of paying for additional swim lessons to help their children become confident swimmers. In the wading pool there are mother and small children play times, and for those who want it, they now have a child care facility so parents can enjoy their own workout time.

There also are facilities for the handicapped and their caregivers can accompany those who need it. In fact, many need and use SARC for rehabilitation purposes when recovering from an accident, surgery and to improve their quality of life. SARC helps us older ones to keep moving and stay out of nursing homes, besides the sociability and fun.

Please support this community jewel by voting YES! for the levy.

See LETTERS, A-11

SARC board pleads; the public pays The SARC board of commissioners is now broadcasting doom and gloom before the district’s voting public when pleading for support for the proposed February 2015 M&O levy. Chairman (Frank) Pickering is quoted as saying, “It was time to act, so we acted.”

Actually, it was time to act at least seven years ago but the board ignored the issue. I made presentations to the board during 2007, 2009 and 2011 wherein I illustrated the trend of financial decline and the need for a short-to-long business plan. After each presentation the board’s response was, “We are OK,” “It’s the recession,” “You are being an alarmist,” and “SARC is not a business, Guest so why should we need a plan?”

Commissioner Jan Richardson has Opinion been admonishing the board for over Bill Black two years in an attempt to alert them to impending financial doom and to get them off their collective posteriors. Unfortunately, he also has been ignored as well as being termed a pariah.

Now the board members are wringing their hands and pleading for the taxpayers to bail them out of their collective fiscal incompetence. A reasonable person should have some idea that, after losing money for seven successive years, something should be done to put its business on a sound financial basis.

Rather than invest in systematic equipment and facility upgrades, a former director with concurrence of successive board majorities was fond of saying, “We should keep our reserves for a rainy day.” Well, fellow taxpayers, a deluge will be shortly forthcoming. So, what is the plan? Mr. Pickering says Plan A is to go to the public trough for a six-year property tax levy. He says Plan B is to close SARC. Ridiculous!

This is constipated thinking.

I offer the following. Plan C — Continue the superbly monumental efforts of current Executive Director Scott Deschenes of initiating innovative programs to encourage public usage of SARC. Plan D — Look to the cost driver, namely, the pool itself. If the pool comprises 60-70 percent of the operating expenses, consider closing at least the large pool portion of the facility. Sad as that may be, it is a viable alternative. If that does not result in fiscal salvation, then Mr. Pickering’s Plan B might be the ultimate solution much to the detriment of our community.

And, for heaven’s sake, formulate a methodical business plan. Without one you do not know where you are going and certainly will not know when you get there.

Bill Black is a Sequim resident and was a SARC board member from 2000-2007.)

After four years away from the event she co-founded, Tracy Blume Thompson returns to Jazz in the Alley during Sequim Lavender Weekend. She’ll sing jazz standards from 5-8 p.m. Saturday, July 19, at the BrokersGroup parking lot, 219 W. Washington St., with her old band Jazz in Blume. That includes Gert Wiitala on piano, Ted Enderle on bass and Tom Svornich on drums. At 7 p.m. Thursday, July 17, she’ll perform with another musician friend, Jim Rosand, at Michael’s Seafood and Steakhouse in Port Angeles.

Blume returns to Sequim for a week with her 8-year-old grandson Killian from Cody, Wyo. (above), after moving to the East Coast in 2009 to help care for her parents.

She founded Jazz in the Alley with the late Jean Haught, owner of Dungeness Bay Wine and Cheese, to promote more foot traffic downtown during the Lavender Festival.

The event blossomed to as many as six venues in 2009 before going to one at BrokersGroup in recent years, with Neil Culbertson, managing broker for the real estate company, organizing the event.

Blume Thompson is remarried and lives in Myrtle Beach, S.C., where she’s just beginning to get back into music. She remains friends with her ex-husband Roger Blume, who still lives in Sequim. He tells the story of how they ended up in Sequim, which leads into Tracy’s stories as a chicken farmer.

Roger Blume “Back in the 1970s, my uncle had a factory

in Chicago and he was getting ready to sell it and retire. He was looking for the cleanest air in United States because his wife had a lung condition. Her doctor suggested she move out of Chicago because she had another four or five years to live. So he did some heavy research, actually traveled the country and found Sequim had the cleanest air in the United States.

He came out here and bought a farm in Happy Valley and she lived another 15 years.

He was so excited about the weather out here, he talked my parents into coming out.

They’ve been here since 1973.

My mom is 99 and she’s still with us (Dorothy Blume). After they retired from General Electric, they homesteaded out here. Happy Valley had three homes on it at the time. Now of course it’s full of homes.

As I visited out here I saw how great the weather was and I retired from the airlines.

Tracy and I bought my mom’s place, fixed it up and enjoyed Sequim ever since.”

Covering SARC’s financial tail No one enjoys receiving their tax bill; and have no desire to fill the cavernous deficits taxing agencies have created.

Here, intentions are to give reference to our communityowned recreational center’s (SARC’s) financial future.

The Sequim Aquatic Recreational Center was built with good intentions to provide a community swimming pool for the health and safety of kids and adults. However, from the beginning, there’s been a misconception of self-sufficiency; this was an unfortunate statement of past considerations, causing consternation within the community. An observation: Of the tens of tens of thousands of public swimming pools in the U.S., for practicality, none are self-sufficient!

When economics were good, SARC saved (sometimes unwisely) and those savings kept SARC operating at industrial standards for the past 13 years without our tax monies. Recently, after professional inquiries into SARC’s structural, mechanical and financial health, it became apparent a levy, to supplement user fees, has to be asked.

Without a levy (this is no threat) RCWs (Revised Code of Washington laws) state that SARC can’t run a deficit! If SARC can’t meet its pecuniary (financial) obligations, our community pool will be closed!

The management of our recreational center understands the difficulty of adding another burden on the community,

hours and dates when fireworks are allowable.

I hope this helps to explain why fireworks laws are somewhat complex and the rules literally vary from neighborhood to neighborhood.

It would be useful if the newspaper can explain to citizens such as the writer that their expectations need to be consistent with the particular jurisdiction and the resources that are available.

Bill Dickinson Chief of Sequim Police I think Chief Dickinson has covered the major issues involved in enforcing fireworks statutes. As the chief writes, the misdemeanor presence rule (RCW 10.31.100) severely limits the ability of deputies, who may be miles away from where the fireworks were set off, to investigate and cite offenders.

The letter writer wants to equate fireworks violations with DUI enforcement. This is not possible, because DUI’s are one of the exceptions to the misdemeanor presence rule.

Unless the legislature changes RCW 10.31.100 to include fireworks violations (not very likely), I doubt that law enforcement will be able to aggressively enforce fireworks statutes.

The CDC estimates that one of every three U.S. adults had prediabetes in 2010. Most do not know they have it. Risk factors include extra weight, inactivity, age and family history. People with prediabetes are likely to develop diabetes if they don’t take steps to improve their health.

could find. We did not find any illegal fireworks during these contacts, hence no citations.

It is certainly possible that some people may have concealed unlawful fireworks from the officers when they pull up in a marked cruiser.

I would also point out that not all aerial fireworks are unlawful. The writer is correct that pop bottle rockets and missiles are unlawful; however, state law allows fountains, helicopters, aerial spinners, roman candles, parachutes, pin wheels, aerial mines, shells and cakes, spinners, and aerial mortars.

As you can see, there are a number of aerial fireworks that are in fact lawful. Again I would direct you to the WSP website to see what is lawful to be sold and where.

Finally, to address the writer’s concern about issuing citations, I would remind him that a police officer has to actually see the offender set off a firework in his/her presence and be able to determine if it is a lawful firework or not. Most of the time, officers arrive after the fireworks have been fired and it is not possible to identify which person in a group actually set it off.

Generally speaking, our officers seek compliance from city residents and use enforcement only when we don’t receive voluntary compliance. Most of our citizens are very cooperative when we ask them to observe the

Then, on a much publicized and anticipated evening, police and fire officers would organize, oversee and then charge admission to viewing the explosion of every confiscated bomb — simultaneously. The Big Bang! The Bomb-A-Dooza! Krakatau!

Naturally, all proceeds would be split among participating agencies. With a little perseverance, we might quickly — and finally — have a July Fourth without any illegal explosions.

I heard him crow one morning and the poor little guy was on the floor of the chicken coop and he couldn’t walk.

for SARC maintenance and operation costs.

After crunching the numbers numerous times and countless conversations among one another, the board members are in agreement that SARC needs additional funds in order to stay afloat, Frank Pickering said, chairman of the SARC board of commissioners.

The six-year property tax levy of 12 cents or less per $1,000 of assessed valuation would generate a total of nearly $2.5 million.

By the end of this year, SARC Executive Director Scott Deschenes estimates the facility’s reserve funds will fall below $500,000.

“You cannot run a healthy business without maintaining reserve funds,” Pickering said.

“We now have expenses that we didn’t have before as SARC is getting older,” Melinda Griffith said, board commissioner.

Former SARC board commissioner David McArthur expressed concern with the amount of the levy.

“We proposed too much at once,” said John Bridge, director for the Sequim School District Board of Directors. “We still have the same needs, but we need to tackle them in smaller portions and we’re still trying to figure out how to best do that.”

Although “it would be nice,” Bridge said, Sequim School District officials are not set on getting on the February ballot. The question of a levy for SARC now etched into the February ballot does not make or break whether the Sequim School District officials will also pursue getting on the ballot, but Bridge said the board will take it into consideration.

Sequim School District superintendent Kelly Shea has been occupied meeting with the public and especially those who voted against the bond to revise a passable plan.

“This is a community decision, not a district decision,” Shea said.

“Right now we’re trying to create a functional plan that also fits with the direction the community wants us to go.”

Shea’s goal is to provide the board with a preliminary recommendation by the beginning of the upcoming school year to be refined by the board before he gives an official recommendation to the board by fall, Shea explained. Providing a recommendation by fall would allow the board to get the school bond on the February ballot if they so choose, Shea said.

The Sequim School District may be uncommitted to the February ballot for now, but the SARC board made its unanimous decision clear that it will be approaching the voters this February for SARC public funding.

on Fir Street with live music, more than 150 vendors and more.

Its tour farms are Blackberry Forest, Graysmarsh Farm, Nelson’s Duckpond & Lavender Farm, Martha Lane Lavender, Oliver’s Lavender Farm, The Lavender Connection and Peninsula Nurseries.

At the Sequim Lavender Farm Tour & Fair, the farmers association continues its free Arts & Crafts Fair in Carrie Blake Park and the Water Reuse Demonstration Park with food and beverages, live music and 70-plus vendors.

They also continue the Lavender Heritage Farm Tour with five farms that require paid admission. Those farms are Purple Haze Lavender Farm, Jardin du Soleil Lavender Farm, Olympic Lavender Heritage Farm, Washington Lavender Farm and Lost Mountain Lavender Farm.

Advanced tickets are available through Thursday evening online at www. sequimlavender.org, at participating farms, First Federal branches, Purple Haze Lavender’s downtown store and Jamestown S’Klallam Tribal Welcome Center. Tickets are $10 per day or $15 for the weekend in advance or $25 at the event for three-day passes.

The in-city free shuttle continues that travels to and from JCPenney, Sequim Middle School, Lavender Festival Street Fair, Sequim Farmers Market, QFC, North Blake Avenue parking lot, Lavender Arts & Crafts Fair in the Park, and west and eastbound at Second Avenue and Washington Street.

According to Clallam County Sheriff’s Office sources, Brewer has had past medical problems and previously was scheduled for surgery.

David Johnson, 62, of Sequim, was in the process of launching his boat to go crabbing with friends. Brewer was in the water with his chest waders on. According to a sheriff’s office press release, Johnson saw Brewer fall face down into the water and went to his aid. Johnson pulled Brewer onto the boat ramp and began chest compressions after not finding Brewer’s pulse.

Millet soon arrived and took over.

Johnson credits Millet with saving Brewer’s life, the sheriff’s office said.

touring farms.”

Regardless, Oen said they are selling tickets like crazy and they’ve added one-day tickets due to demand.

Caitlyn Williams, Sequim Lavender Farmers Association spokesman, said all of the participating farms are busy this week organizing last minute details for their own mini-festivals at each farm.

She said Washington Lavender, for example, has been prepping for this weekend for months with a village setup featuring reenactments Saturday and Sunday from the Second Connecticut Regiment of Militia re-enactors in period costumes, demonstrating and answering questions about colonial life. Williams said The Workshop of Seattle, which is partnering with the farmers association to promote the tour, said they are taking an approach to promote the farmers behind the lavender along with the product and farms.

The newest members of the tour are Marco and Christa Hermosillo who purchased Olympic Lavender Heritage Farm last year.

“Olympic Lavender Heritage Farm is completely new and revamped,” Williams said. “They’ve redone the gift shop which is breathtaking.

They are really knowledgable, too.”

She said Christa, a former biochemist, and Marco are totally in tune with the chemistry side of lavender.

At the free park event, vendors like Cedarbrook Lavender & Herb Farm will sell a wide range of products from all natural lavender products alongside artisans and jewelers.

With visitors’ food options, Williams said they are trying to create an experience similar to a restaurant in their beer and wine garden operated by Bella Italia.

This year, the group doesn’t host an opening ceremony but continues its live music and entertainment offerings along with helicopter rides to see the lavender farms from the sky.

Festival fun Mary Jendrucko, executive director for the Sequim Lavender Festival, said they’ve listened to visitors and made some changes to their events, too.

The growers association’s six free admission lavender farms and commercial nursery added new landscaping by planting new varieties of lavender while adding lavender oil distillation demonstrations, new lavender ice cream types and expanding parking areas. Staples like Tilly Lundstrom’s lavender lemonade for her school’s

music program remains going strong at Nelson’s Duckpond & Lavender Farm.

At the Street Fair, Jendrucko said they quickly filled up their vendors’ booths and have a packed line-up for its Lavenderstock.

The Cedars at Dungeness is set to produce the Street Fair’s beer and wine garden too with lavender margaritas and martini cocktails available along with lavender wine for those 21 and over.

To help out, the festival enlisted the Boys & Girls Club of the Olympic Peninsula to assist with managing the Street Fair while hosting the “Festival Fun for Kids” which includes interactive games, fun and entertainment for children 12 under next to the Street Fair.

Other events covered under Sequim Lavender Weekend include the Sunbonnet Sue Quilt Show and the Olympic Driftwood Sculptors’ show at Sequim Middle

School, Olympic Theatre Arts’ “Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure,” Sequim Farmers Market, “Les Misérables” at Sequim High School, Skyridge Golf Tournament, Jazz in the Alley, Art Jam, West Coast Women’s Review at Olympic Cellars, bird walk in Railroad Bridge Park, Puffin Marine Cruise and a wine tour.

A lavender picking we will go Wearing the only purple item I own and plenty of sunscreen, I fully embraced the culture of Sequim lavender for the first time this past weekend.

Like thousands of people before me and with many more to come, I took my family to cut some lavender of our own.

While I’ve snapped plenty of photos in lavender fields and written dozens of stories on the plant and its local farmers, I’ve never gone lavender picking. Sure, I’ve bought the lavender products from the bug Reporter’s repellant to the hand Notebook soap but U-cut seems to be the draw.

Matthew Nash It’s the allure of getting your knees and hands dirty or oily in lavender’s case.

The sites and photographs can be breathtaking with friends sharing a joke while filling a basket or cousins running the rows of purple and pink.

See FIRST, B-2

Deadlines

Watering The best way to know if your plants are appropriately moist is to check the soil. Insert your finger 2 inches into the soil. The soil should be “crumbly moist” but not wet. Expect to water 2 to 3 times per week (rain counts).

The real answer to how often to water depends on the quality of the soil, the amount of wind and sun the site receives and the size of the plants.

Consistent moisture level prevents stressed plants (and stressed plants are more susceptible to disease).

Mulching around the plants helps maintain a consistent moisture level.

Always keep water off of the leaves to discourage fungal disease.

Feeding

Feed every two weeks with diluted fish emulsion or diluted seaweed liquid (read the label for application rates).

Apply a low nitrogen organic fertilizer in the second month after planting or when the plant begins to bloom. Be frugal on fertilizer application; too much

It is July – prime time here in the Pacific Northwest for growing tomatoes!

Warm, dry conditions and long days of sunshine – perfect settings to produce juicy tomatoes in August and September!

This year the Master Gardeners are growing four varieties at two locations as ”demonstration” to the public. The varieties are ‘Early Girl,’ ‘Sungold,’ ‘Stupice’ and ‘Cosmonaut Volkov.’

The locations are the Master Gardener Demonstration Garden at 2711 Woodcock Road in Sequim and the Fifth Street Garden at 328 E. Fifth St. in Port Angeles.

At the Woodcock Garden the tomatoes are being grown under a plastic high-tunnel as well as in the open.

The plastic high-tunnel will help prevent leaves from getting wet. Wet leaves can encourage fungal disease, a common problem in cool marine environments.

Disease tolerance and fruit production will be compared between the two sites and the two growing methods (high-tunnel versus open garden). Although this is an “observational experiment” rather than a strict scientific experiment, it provides an opportunity for the public to see the four varieties in local growing conditions.

When you stop by to look at the tomatoes, take a few minutes to relax and stroll through these two lovely local gardens.

What should you be doing in July in your tomato garden? The basics: water, feed, prune and watch for fungal disease.

nitrogen can cause excessive vegetative growth.

Pruning Check plants regularly.

Tomato plants are aggressive growers. Foliage production diverts energy from fruit production and can restrict air circulation around the plant leaves.

Remove the leafy shoots (called “suckers”) from between the stem and lateral branch. Later in the season, remove blossoms and immature fruit so maximum effort goes into the ripening of fruit and larger fruit.

Fungal disease

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

A former Sequim woman closed a chapter in her life recently by completing her and her husband’s memoirs.

“Our Awesome Journey” by Albert and Aimee Anderson, 78, was a collaboration between the husband and wife until his death March 9, 2013, at age 83.

The memoir of their love story, faith and time pastoring came at the prompting of their six children, Aimee Anderson said.

“Finishing it was part of my grieving process,” she said. “Our kids wanted it for years and I felt it was a chapter that needed to be closed.”

Albert Anderson died one month before they celebrated their 59th wedding anniversary.

The couple met in Walla Walla on a family farm where they worked. They pastored nine different churches in Washington including the Sequim Assembly of God, now Sequim Worship Center, for four years in the 1970s. They also founded the Olympic Gospel Tabernacle, which later closed.

Aimee said they moved from the

gal disease. Both are deadly.

There is no cure once the plant has a fungal disease and the disease affects both the plant and the fruit. Infected vegetation and fruit should be immediately removed from the garden and discarded; do not compost.

Spores easily spread from plant to plant; be very careful when removing infected plants.

Clean up all leaves and plant parts to prevent spores from overwintering in the soil. Rotate crops to help build the soil and reduce the chance of fungal recurrence.

The best way to prevent fungal problems is to keep water (including mist and rain) off of tomato leaves.

A high-tunnel over plants is an effective way to keep leaves dry.

Our approach was to avoid the sun’s heat with full knowledge my 2-year-old’s energy level could crash and so could ours, so in our few hours of “lav-ing it up” before nap time we ventured to Lost Mountain Lavender and Nelson’s Duckpond & Lavender Farm.

Both are open during Sequim Lavender Weekend with Lost Mountain a part of the Sequim Lavender Farm Tour & Fair, admission required at farms July 18-20, and Nelson’s Duckpond a part of the Sequim Lavender Festival, admission is free.

One thing to note is that most of the Sequim lavender farms are open year-round and there’s no entry fee. The idea behind Sequim Lavender Weekend is to promote people coming to Sequim more than just on the one weekend.

Aimee said she has fond memories of Sequim.

One saddening part of their memories is the murder of their close friends Ron and Wanda Buck near Sequim on Sept.

3, 1971.

Albert recounts his experiences in this book while Aimee actually wrote a memoir “Broken, Yet Triumphant” in 1983 about it.

“I tried to contact her for five days before going out to their house,” Aimee said.

That’s where they found their friends, victims of murder.

The trial lasted five days, Aimee said, and she was the second witness on the stand that eventually found one man, John V. Carothers, guilty of two counts of murder and one count robbery.

She and Albert dealt with their friends’ deaths and other tribulations by turning to God. Through their years, they coauthored five other books together — “Sunshine Through Clouds,” their first book a courtroom drama, and four church crime corruption stories “Whited Sepulchres,” “A Generation of Vipers,” “White Collar Crime in the Church” and “Grand Jury Mystery.”

A fictitious movie called “Assembly” loosely based on the Andersons’ lives will be released soon, she said, but couldn’t reveal more information at producers’ requests.

Following her husband’s death, she remarried on June 10 this year to Beryl Baker and moved to Deer Park.

For copies of her books, including “Our Awesome Journey,” local book stores can order copies and they are online in print and digitally through online sellers.

We stopped at Lost Mountain Lavender Farm, 1541 Taylor Cutoff Road, first since it was the closest farm to our home. We pulled in and immediately noticed the water wheel next to the parking lot.

It took us about a minute to stop staring as it went round and round before we walked to the gift shop. Farm co-owner Monica Quevedo greeted us

and we found our basket and scissors for U-cut. We decided to scope things out and walked back to the sample garden with a number of different lavender breeds.

Reed took a liking to the small rocks and dirt in the pathway, but I wasn’t surprised because that’s one of his favorite pastimes at home.

We walked to the first row of lavender Hidcote, an angustifolia, and decided this would be a good place to start.

It was hard not to notice the honeybees all around but one worker eased our worries saying that they won’t sting us.

We simply just need to brush the plant with our scissors or hands to shoo them away.

The bees were a big hit for Reed since he refers to any and all bugs as “bees!” A spider is a bee. A beetle is a bee. And so forth. He can say Spider-Man

though, which shows how my interests already are rubbing off on his vocabulary.

So, I took a knee and pinched a stem and clipped above the old growth and leaves to take my victorious first cut.

But to be honest it’s somewhat anticlimactic for two parts. Firstly, lavender is everywhere even down the steps at my work, so it’s common for me to break off a sprig in the summer to smell while I walk somewhere. But the farms are all about the experience I learned.

Secondly, looking at the bundle afterwards, I couldn’t tell you which one I cut first.

But I suppose it’s like a mother rabbit, she may not know which baby is which, but she loves them all equally.

The best tip I can remember for lavender picking is to hang your bundle upside down in a

A short drive west and on the south side of U.S. Highway 101, we checked out Nelson’s Duckpond & Lavender Farm, 73 Humble Hill Road.

Down the driveway we saw the bright yellow Tilly’s Lavender Lemonade Stand, which I’ve had before after visiting for photo ops.

Tilly Lundstrom greeted us at the top of the driveway so of course we had to start with her lavender lemonade. Her drink was definitely a hit for our family and we liked that its proceeds helps her music program at Greywolf Elementary.

One lavender lemonade protip is that it doesn’t appear to stain clothing if you happen to have a toddler who likes to drink your beverages over you.

From here, Tilly showed us the best way to cut and bundle before we walked out to the lavender rows.

As my wife and I cut different types of lavender, Reed took many of the recent clippings out of the basket and handed them to Tilly.

“I don’t think he likes them,” Tilly joked.

“Nah, I think he’s just sharing,” I said.

“No thanks,” she told Reed.

“I have enough lavender. I live here.”

Once we gathered up our lavender bundle or in Reed’s mind, Tilly’s bundle, we went to check out the duck pond.

Thankfully the ducks were quacking and swimming and the fish were biting.

Reed got to feed the fish and was so eager he wanted to try and pet them, too.

Overall, the friendly demeanor, parking and lemonade added to the lavender U-cut experience here, too.

Quick round up

471079087

While lavender growing may not be Sequim’s oldest tradition, it’s a welcome one in my opinion. I found the experience of U-cut laid back, family friendly and fairly inexpensive. While I like seeing all the people in the fields and streets during Sequim Lavender Weekend, I think I’ll wait until Reed is a little older before we take on any official tours. However, I look forward to the first time for our family’s lavender farm tour. In the meantime I’ll still be out there snapping pictures while everything continues to come up lavender.

Question 21: As a child, what did you want to be or do?

Christa Hermosillo: I always wanted to be a doctor. I got to college and found I was more interested in chemistry. I became a biochemist and did cancer research for 12 years.

With Christina Hermosillo With her husband Marco, a university educator and administrator and a 1994 Sequim High School graduate, Christa Hermosillo looks to take on her first full Sequim Lavender Weekend and Sequim Lavender Farm Tour & Fair as co-owners of Olympic Lavender Heritage Farm. They’ve been in Sequim six years with the ambition to own a lavender farm.

Christa, originally from Kettle & Falls in northeastern Washington, said they were growing and researching lavender on their property before buying the 19-year-old farm last July right before Lavender Weekend from Mary Borland-Liebsch. In a year, the couple has added a more contemporary feel with a new logo, website, boutique and products. The couple also increased the farm’s total acreage from 5 to 12 acres with three field locations all in Dungeness.

Christa said they are planting thousands of new lavender plants on those extension fields this fall and next spring, as well as adding thousands of new plants at their main farm location this fall.

Birder to birder: ‘No ... really?’

“I didn’t know that!” she said to me, while looking out across the mudflats, listening to my bird-babble on something esoteric about sandpipers. “Is that for true or are you bird-storying me again?” she asked, turning from her scope to look at me.

“Yip,” said I, in that talltale manner I adopt when pontificating on superfluo u s t r ut h s about birds that for some Our Birds re a son I’ve tucked into Denny AFMJ Van Horn back recesses of my mind.

She just stood there shaking her head, not a comment in return.

So, I thought I’d share snippets of conversations she and I’ve had while out-andabout birding on the Olympic Peninsula on obscure facets of our birds.

Brett Wright of Sequim tosses his helmet in celebration after driving in two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning, helping Wilder Seniors knock off Spokane Club in the first North Washington 16-18 Year Old Babe Ruth Tournament on July 11.

Learning Rackets up, spirits up.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula is hosting its sixth-annual twoweek summer tennis camp for children ages 5-17, with camp activities finishing this week (July 18).

Camp organizers say the goal is to have fun and learn tennis, the so-called “sport of a lifetime.”

The tennis camp is organized and planned by the new U.S. Tennis Association-recognized B&G Youth Tennis Association.

For more information, call the Sequim Boys & Girls Club at 683-8095 or e-mail dmiller@bgc-op.org.

The best of the Olympic Peninsula’s hurlers and batters were ready for a battle last weekend.

Unfortunately for the Wilder Seniors and Wilder Juniors squads, so were a trio of visiting teams.

The Columbia Basin Desert Dogs went 4-0 in pool play and Lakeside Recovery (Bellevue) went 3-1 to claim both playoff spots at the North Washington 16-18 Year Old Babe Ruth State Tournament at Civic Field last weekend, leaving a trio of teams — both Wilder squads and Spokane Crew — tied for third and out of the Babe Ruth World Series.

Besides an 11-run drubbing of Wilder Juniors, Columbia Basin needed top pitching and key hitting as they won

the

‘Sport

their other three games by a combined five runs. The sweep earns Columbia Basin a berth to the World Series, to be held in Ephrata in August.

With three wins, Lakeside advances to an upcoming regional tournament in Vancouver, Wa. The Wilder Seniors, coming off their Firecracker tournament championship last weekend, played the host team — and looked to have a bit of fortune on their side after a 3-2, comefrom-behind victory against Spokane Crew in the first game on July 11. After losing a one-run lead in the top of the sixth, Brett Wright laced a two-run double with two outs in the bottom of the seventh to give Wilder Seniors a walk-off win.

On Saturday, however, Lakeside Recovery touched up Wilder Seniors pitchers in a 10-6 decision.

A day later, Wilder Seniors dropped a 5-3 game to the champ Columbia Basin and fell to Wilder Juniors in their sister squad’s first victory on the tournament, 3-2.

Lifetime’

We were up at Deer Park, watching two F18s from Whidbey Island NAS fly over, when a juvy golden eagle flew into the same field of view. “Wow! I know about birds and planes, but I wonder how high a bird could go to collide with one?”

I watched the eagle soar higher, a long ways from the two jets, and mused aloud to her, “There’s a story from back in ’73, when a Rüppell’s griffon vulture flew into a jet’s engine. The jet, flying over the Ivory Coast at 37,100 feet, landed safely, but the vulture didn’t make it. The vulture was identified by feathers remaining stuck to the engine wall.

“Oh, here’s another tidbit: The first airplane-bird collision took place over Huffman Prairie in 1905 when Wilbur Wright hit a flock of birds: one was killed, Wilbur was OK. It was thought to be a red-winged blackbird. He wrote about it in his diary.”

Cats vs. birds Birding on Ediz Hook last week, we were watching harlequins and feral cats at the end of the spit when she asked, “What kind of an impact do cats really have on birds?”

Thinking now to myself as I write this, cat lovers aren’t going to like the response I shared with her. “There are some 80 million pet cats and an estimated 120 million feral cats out there and they kill between 2-4 billion birds annually. On the low side, that’s about 10 birds per cat a year.”

Just then, one of the TNR cats leapt from behind a driftwood log and took a fledgling house sparrow. Her eyes went wide, even though it was only a house sparrow!

Then she asked, “TNR?” I shared, “Trap, neuter and release: a falsie that feral neutered cats re-released are ecologically and communally benign!”

As she watched the cat kill the sparrow, she asked, “Is it working?” I answered, “Not for the birds.”

Bet ya The pileated climbed the tree, screnching up one hop at a time. She stood watching and did the Woody Woodpecker song, turned and grinned at me. Hmmmm, I thought, do I or don’t I? OK, I’ll go there.

“Nope! He’s wasn’t a pileated!”

She frowned, furrowing her eyebrows and squenching her eyes, and said to me, “He was too! And I’ll bet you a case of Deschutes Black Butte porter on that!” Oh my, the beer of beers!

And she again emphatically said, “Woody talks pileated!”

This is a good bet. Most who bird think this is fact. That Woody’s a pileated. But he’s not. He’s characterized after an acorn woodpecker. Go listen to one. OK, they don’t occur here, so go listen to one online and you’ll hear that rattle that Woody makes.

And then check the story out at Wikipedia.

Walter Lanz was honeymooning with wife Gracie at Sherwood Lake, Calif., during which time an acorn woodpecker kept them annoyed for days and nights. I shared these tidbits with her; but she wasn’t buying it.

Four afternoons later, she came by my dwelling with a case of Black Butte porter.

Why did the chicken …

“What? No way! You gotta be joking!” Big exclamation marks. Big question marks. All back at me and I heard each one. Sometimes I deserve them. Sometimes I toss bird trivia toward her that really does reach the border of mythical heresy. But usually when I get to the point of telling tall tales, she’s grasped the profundity of my words and ignores me.

But not this time. So I was off run-

ning. “Over 300 feet and it took her 13 seconds. Three times the distance and a second longer than Orville first flew the Wright Flyer at Kill Devil Hill at Kitty Hawk! That’s what she did. And her name was Renunka. A chicken!”

I’ve never learned her total history, her parlance or her reality in chicken speciation, but she holds the world record for flight within her birding group. This I shared. And it was the look on her face that was a treasure buried. The smile behind her eyes was decimating me bit by bit. Or was it bird fact by bird fact?

Predator and prey The male robin came down from the top of apple tree in a beeline toward the crow perched on the fence.

The robin flew so close to the crow, when it ducked, it slipped off the fence, tumbled over and down to the ground.

By now the female robin was at the crow, too. Harassing. Diving. Noise of devils incarnate everywhere as robins

score of 28. A very close second place, also with a net score of 28, required a scorecard playoff; the prizes went to Lilli Gomes and Lisa Ballantyne, both from Cedars, and Joanne Quiring of Lakeland Village, and Judy Munden of Discovery Bay. Judy Kelley, from Sunland Golf Club won the ultimate putting contest in “sudden death” while Lady Niner Jan Boyungs won the chipping competition.

and crow swore and screamed at each other.

As we watched, I said to her, “There’s a thrush that poops on them when they do this harassing thing, you know.” Them being the predator.

“Who?” A simple, easy word. One inviting the tale to be told.

“Fieldfares. They’re found throughout Europe. Nest in colonies. When a predator invades a nesting area, they gather and scream and harass and when they get a chance they fly in and poop on the predator. Effective.

A nasty way to be chased out of an area. But also potentially lethal as the fieldfare’s poop saturates a predator’s feathers.

“This weakens them and, therefore, the bird is against weather’s rain, wind, mist — chilling the predator into a bad situation. Never mind the turmoil when the failed predator comes back to its own territory or nestlings empty-billed and smelling of fieldfare poop.”

The look she gave me said it all.

Siege of herons We were searching through a horde of sandpipers at 3 Crabs looking for a semipalmated among all the Westerns when she said out of the blue, “So, it’s a siege of herons. Why?” That caught me up. Thinking on it a bit, I said, “It’s from how they doggedly wait for prey at their feet. A siege is about patience.”

She has a way of tilting her head when ready to pounce.

“OK, oh wise-one, what’s the venereal term for them?”

Pointing to three mallards flying by. “Sord! It’s from the Old French sordre meaning to rise up in flight.”

She just stood there, looking at me, then laughed, “WHERE do you find these things and why do you remember them?”

I just shrugged my shoulders, and said, “Did you know that Caspian terns …”

Brain Gain Our summer learning program continues at the Boys & Girls Club. This program is designed to keep kids thinking and learning by doing while having fun during their summer vacation.

Our theme last week was “Making Things Work Better” and we learned about creativity, innovation, the process of inventing and obtaining patents.

were reminded the benefits of recycling and the dangers of coastal littering. Members learned just how long trash takes to decompose.

The week concluded with a field trip to the Feiro Marine Life Center. The campers split into two groups and split their three hours between Hollywood Beach and the lab.

Members were inside touching sea life in the tanks and dissecting albatross pellets.

Pellets showed the kids exactly what the marine life are eating which included garbage. Out on the beach they were able to take advantage of low tide and really see the creatures living in tidepools. While there the kids helped clean the beach from harmful debris.

Triple Play Our summer Triple Play program kicked off last week with several fun and challenging activities to test our kids’ athletic ability and endurance. Triple Play is a National Boys & Girls Club program that promotes teamwork and physical activity. Triple Play represents the mind, body and soul. It is our goal to teach our kids the proper rules of a game, how to get the most out of bodies and how to be the best teammate.

Our gym coordinator Antoine Stevenson is in charge of giving our kids the proper tools to flourish not only in sport competitions but also in life competitions.

Games vary from Sharks and Minnows to full baseball games. Teamwork and good sportsmanship also are key components to this program.

Future Triple Play events include pickleball, indoor soccer, four square and the NFL Pass, Punt and Kick competition. It is our goal to make sure that the kids have access to at least one hour of physical activity a day. Our staff does a wonderful job making sure members use their minds, bodies and souls.

C H A L K TALK

Making Math Masters For 15 days, 47 students in grades 9-12 came to the Sequim High School library to work in the computer lab on an online program for math credit retrieval. Above, math teacher Carol Harms assists Sequim High School sophomore Karla Najera with an algebra question. This program enabled students to earn a “pass” for the year’s credit. Some students had a failing grade going in and others had incomplete work. The group number dwindled a bit over the course of the days, but by the end, Harms reported that 41 students were able to recover math credit, 24 in geometry and 17 in algebra. Submitted photo

After receiving permission to use the layout from another group, Davis approached the quilt club which liked the idea.

Each of the 13 blocks was needleturn appliqued by a different artist and embellished with items like cheese cloth, silk ribbon and buttons. Eleven barns are or were in Sequim with one in Forks and another in Port Angeles.

Davis said the barns span at least 125 years and each of the quilters did extensive research for details.

“It gets down to the family histories of the area,” Taylor said. “We’re talking about great-great grandfathers here.”

Prior to the show, club members have been selling raffle tickets while displaying the quilt at various community events in previous months. Ticket sales will continue at the show.

Loretta Bilow, who quilted the Willis Chamber Barn, said the impact runs deep for many people.

“It brings tears to some eyes,” she said.

“Even if it’s not a part of your history, it’s a story quilt,” Cook said.

Betty Cook, the Sunbonnet Sue Quilt Club’s featured 2014 show artist, stands with her “Sunrise on the Masai Mara” in Paducah, Ky. She won honorable mention in the Small Wall Quilts: of Longarm/ Midarm Machine Quilted division at the American Quilter’s Society 2014 show earlier this year.

28-inch throat compared to a standard 7-inch area to sew and quilt.

The pair has done several pieces together and has won this national award along with some local accolades.

“I just get lucky,” Coler said.

“These wonderful artists give me their quilts to work on together.”

Cook, a retired mortgage banker, has been quilting all her life and became more serious about it in the past 15 years beginning in Alaska.

She designs all her own quilts and has five or six going at a time.

MUDDY MUDSKIPPER is a CUTIE! He looks like Eddie from “Frasier”.

Muddy is a very friendly fellow who gets along with other dogs, and is great with kids, but not good with cats... Muddy is house trained, walks well on a leash, and loves to run outside. If you have a well fenced yard, and an active family, Muddy will make a great family dog for you!

MAGGIE is a sweet puppy, but she does need some behavioral work. Since she has some heeler in her, she can be nippy. Maggie is OK with other dogs, and could be OK with cats. She will need a home with either no kids, or older kids due to her propensity to play rough. Maggie would do best with an experienced dog owner that can work with her.

She is a smart girl with a lot to offer, but she needs a strong leader to teach her how to be a good canine citizen!

CHESNEY is a great family dog and loves cats! We don’t know if she would like living with another dog... Chesney was brought to us because she was not doing well with the new baby in the family... She was not mean or anything, she just didn’t understand she couldn’t jump up and be close to the baby. Her former owners said she was a very loving dog. Chesney is a new arrival, so we may update more info soon!

GUNNER is a happy, playful guy with a friendly personality. Gunner was adopted from us a little while ago and returned because he would not stop chasing cats! Other than that, his adopter said he was the perfect dog: never went potty in the house, never ran out of the yard, and loved to sleep on the couch! Gunner needs a break, and he needs to find that perfect retirement home.
