Scott Dudley is taking his show on the road. Oak Harbor’s fired-up mayor is bringing his criticism of Island Transit’s board of directors to other elected officials across the island, though his message may not be well received. Dudley, who may be seeking re-election next year, is making Island Transit his personal crusade. Dudley said Monday that he plans to attend council meetings next month in Langley and Coupeville to ask mayors and council members “to take a look at who is representing them at Island Transit.” He said he also plans to attend an Island County commissioners’ meeting after the new member is elected Nov. 4. Democrat Karla Jacks and Republican Rick Hannold are vying for the seat vacated by Kelly Emerson. Dudley is calling on all board members to resign in the wake of financial difficulties, recent audit findings and news that former transit director Martha Rose received a payout of more than $100,000 even though the audit showed she wasn’t marking down all of her vacation hours. “People are livid. And rightly so,” Dudley said. “People should be upset.” “People should be pissed. This is their money.” Currently, Coupeville Councilman Bob Clay is the chairman of the tran-

World Beard & Moustache Championships in Portland, Ore., over the weekend. While lots of competitors went full-tilt with their outfits and facial hair, Langer opted for the au natural look, and passed on adding even a spritz of hair spray or a drop of gel. “It was easy being lazy,” Langer said.

Transit board member quits, urges others to follow suit By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record Jim Campbell resigned from the embattled Island Transit board last week and urged his colleagues to follow suit. The Oak Harbor councilman was on vacation for about six weeks and missed the drama of Martha Rose leaving as director, as well as the
tussles between board members and Campbell’s temporary replacement, Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley. Sweeping change on the Island Transit board seems unlikely, however. Board members are in the midst of searching for an interim director as the chairman of the board, Bob Clay, spends his days at Island Transit as the acting director.
Clay said this week that he has no intention of resigning. “I’m appointed by the Coupeville Town Council and the Coupeville mayor,” he said. “The Oak Harbor council has no say in who represents Coupeville.” Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said she’s not quitting the board. “I’m planning on addressing the

Struggling Whidbey Island state parks get creative By JANIS REID South Whidbey Record In the face of diminishing funding for state parks, local parks staff said they are having to get creative to keep parks running smoothly. Representatives from Washington State Parks presented the agency’s current condition to Whidbey leaders this week, in efforts to both inform and seek partnerships that may help them do more with less. “The only way we can make this happen is if we all work together,” said Deception Pass Manager Jack Hartt to members of the Council of Governments. “Alone I can’t do that on my own with my staff, we can’t do it on our own. But together, if we work together as governments, if we work together as neighbors and community… our state parks can work for all of us.” The Island County Council of Governments includes Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley, Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard, Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy, Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson and Port of South Whidbey representative Curt Gordon. Combined, Whidbey Island’s

Doles said in four years volunteering for the park system, paid staff has diminished. nine state parks bring 4.7 million visitors each year, with 2.7 million going to Deception Pass alone. Daniel Farber, policy and governmental affairs director for state parks, said that the last few years have been tumultuous for state parks as funding has been slashed and the Discover Pass initiated. “We’re in such tumult right now,

we’ve laid off one-third of our fulltime employees,” Farber said. The state funded parks with $94 million in general fund dollars as recently as 2009, but has cut that down steadily each year. In 2013, the state gave only $8.5 million to parks. Farber said that while income from the Discover Pass has helped

offset the state’s shrinking contribution, state parks are still struggling to provide minimal services. On Whidbey, the reality of cuts has meant reduced camping seasons at South Whidbey and Fort Ebey, summer interpretive programs have been on hold, office hours have been reduced and some restrooms are closed in the winter, according to Central Whidbey Area Manager Jon Crimmins. Crimmins added that short-staffing has led to poor morale and motivation; there’s not enough staff to open and close gates, and problems at a specific park leaves other parks unattended. “The State’s shrinking budget led to a need to reduce staff and find new ways to manage our parks,” Crimmins said. This has led to creating a large management area for all Whidbey Island state parks, with the exception of Deception Pass which has its own management team. Farber said when the Discover Pass was initiated in 2011, the legislature directed state parks to work toward 100 percent self-sufficiency, a goal he said is unrealistic. “We can’t get there, we don’t want

to get there, we don’t think the public wants us to get there,” Farber said. “We think with a public park system you need public stakeholders.” In that light, state parks has attempted to form partnerships with other organizations, schools and volunteer groups to stretch their resources. “It’s not all doom and gloom,” Crimmins said. “We found some solutions.” Among those include creating a central office for all permanent staff at Fort Casey, an office assistant assumes many of the administrative tasks, supplies and products are standardized, park rangers’ schedules are prioritized by need, and the volunteer program has been vastly expanded to assist with park cleanups and customer service. “We’ve had all sorts of local volunteer help,” Crimmins said.

FREELAND Crash sends one to hospital Firefighters had to use pneumatic tools to free a Greenbank man from his car Monday following a collision with a tree in Freeland. Michael Long, 37, was transported by ambulance to Whidbey General Hospital with what appeared to be non-life threatening injuries. According to an Island County Sheriff’s Office deputy at the scene, the accident occurred at about 5:30 p.m. on Honeymoon Bay Road, between Reindeer Road and Evenstar Lane. Long was reportedly northbound in a 1998 Ford
Escort and failed to negotiate a curve. His vehicle slammed into a tree on the other side of the street. Skid marks about 100 feet long made it clear he wasn’t able to stop in time to avoid the collision. Whidbey police confirmed that speed and impairment may have been factors in the crash. The wreck closed both lanes of traffic between Reindeer and Evenstar for about 45 minutes; the road was cleared by about 6:15 p.m.
CLINTON Fungi hunters tour woods A group eager to learn turned out to the Whidbey Institute in
Clinton this past weekend to search for mushrooms. Organized by the Whidbey Camano Land Trust, Ida Gianopulos, conservation assistant with the trust, led the tour of the Clinton woods. An estimated 75 people attended the Walk & Talk with Fungi tour, according to an email from a land trust spokeswoman. The tours focused on forest ecology and fungi’s role in forests and the environment as a whole.
PORT Options for fair property on table Options to run the Island County Fairgrounds will be the main discussion item for the Port of South Whidbey commissioners tonight. The commissioners are having a special meeting at 6 p.m. Oct. 29 in Freeland to review their options at managing
the nearly 13-acre Island County-owned property in Langley. The county commissioners asked the port district to consider running the property, which would include handling rentals and regular maintenance. The annual fair held at the property would still be put on by the Island County Fair Association, which currently also manages the property to its financial detriment, according to fair association officials. The port district’s 2015 budget will also be discussed. The port board meets at 1804 Scott Road, in the building below China City in Freeland.

Air pollution
What’s with all the airplane traffic? Editor, I have been noticing greatly increased air traffic over the housetops of my neighborhood in the Campbell Road and Maxwelton area and I’m wondering what is going on. I have lived on South Whidbey for 32 years and have never been bothered by the occasional aircraft overhead. This summer, there has been a neverending stream of low-flying small craft with extremely loud and obnoxious engines and propellers. Sometimes I wonder if I am in a war zone. I spend a lot of time outdoors, working in the garden, looking for mushrooms, caring for animals, walking, etc., and I have never experienced this kind of sound pollution before. As soon as one plane recedes into the distance, another one approaches. These disruptive flights take place on the weekends and at night, as well as normal working hours. Have some new commercial flight patterns been legalized, or has there been a huge increase in recreational planes? Is anyone else noticing this change and is there anything we can do to protect our formerly quiet and peaceful way of life? Officials at the Federal Aviation Administration office in Renton say there are no regulations regarding airplane noise, but planes cannot fly lower than 500 feet above “uncongested” areas and 1,000 feet above “congested” areas. I wonder if the owners of private aircraft are aware of the fact that their flights are disturbing their neighbors down below, and

The Burnt Man was real. At 5 or 6, I had no reason to doubt the tale and believed in him absolutely. He haunted the woods above Double Bluff, and if I wasn’t careful he’d get me! It’s a family ghost story, one that was told to my sister and me around driftwood fires on the shores of Useless Bay. That was back when one could do such a thing without ending up in the police blotter. While the details seemed to change with every telling, the general story line was the same: a man was tragically burned and ran up the bluff, never to be seen again. Seems silly now, but it was downright creepy at the time, especially for young trespassers like my sister and me. For us, South Whidbey was a summer retreat. For more than 50 years my family owned a tumble-down old beach cabin on Shore Avenue. The place was really nothing more than a fishing shack, a far cry from the multi-million-dollar mansions so common on the street today, but here we made annual retreats from life, visiting grandparents, digging for clams, catching crab, fishing for salmon — all that good Whidbey Island stuff. And no trip was complete without an ascent up Double Bluff (a feat too dangerous to attempt today) and a trek to Oliver Lake. Making the climb, sneaking onto Henny property and, of course, the prospect of bumping into The Burnt Man; it was all very exciting. So, with Halloween this week, I set out to find the truth behind this local legend and see if I could dig up a few other hair-raisers as well. And in doing so I learned that the Smith family — my mother’s surname — has a great claim to fame on South Whidbey. Apparently, we are the keepers of the area’s only ghost story. Sounds hard to believe that we should deserve such a mantle, but it seems to be the case nonetheless. Hunting for a real gasper for today’s paper, I spoke with the historical society, members of old families and other various founts of knowledge across the South End, all to no avail. A few memories of formerly vacant homes in Langley once used to scare the pants off high school freshman, but no real blood chillers, nothing to keep you up at night. Surely there are a few out there, and perhaps this will bring them to the surface, but it appears this year belongs to the Smiths and the The Burnt Man. Happy Halloween.

Are the sheep ready to shear? Editor, Nothing has so clearly demonstrated reasons for voting “No” on Initiative 594 than when on Dec. 14, 1981, General Wojciech Jaruzelski declared martial law on Poland and declared all licensed firearm owners must turn in their registered guns with 48 hours. Of course the government knew where every gun was except those in the hands of criminals. March 12, 1990, Russian Premiere Mikhail Gorbachev ordered private citizens to turn in their hunting and competition guns “for temporary safekeeping” or have them confiscated and their owners imprisoned. They had no choice but to comply. What is the difference between the fall of the Weimar Republic and when Adolf Hitler was put in power and the bourgeoisie disarmed? The United States is headed down the same fast and furious interstate. I-594 is part of a gun con-

trol juggernaut. It is the onslaught to register and confiscate our peacekeepers. The hemorrhaging I-594 is due for a tourniquet. It is like hiring the same babysitter that just harmed your child. Remember an innocent looking egg may hatch into a serpent, like the cuckoo I-594 lays eggs in a nest which is not their own. There are individuals pushing the new deal I-594, powerful pressure groups which are opposed to the truth on such matters. Wake up patriotic Americans about guns. By plan, we have class against class at the whim of a bureaucratic autocracy, omnipotent and absolute. GARY LEWIS Clinton
Noise control in Langley possible Editor, I’ve worked in acoustics and noise control most of my life, and therefore have a few bona fides on the subject, and I take issue with Langley Planning Director Jeff Arango’s belief that sound level meters are “subjective.” That’s like saying that thermometers and smoke detectors are subjective. It’s what you do with the data that
counts. I take no position on Mo’s, other than the belief that public houses are good for the public‘s health and welfare. But if Langley really wants to learn how to regulate noise, they merely have to adopt the Washington State noise standards, which are thoughtfully written and are but a few keystrokes away on the internet.

Gun initiative is a bad idea Editor, State Initiative 594 is a bad idea. If I-594 were in place one year ago Jaylen Fryberg would still be dead and he would have still murdered another student and wounded four others. Neither I-594 nor the fact that the school is a “Gun Free Zone” stopped Jaylen Fryberg from murdering fellow students. Don’t get me wrong, I am totally against gun violence and I am totally in favor of background checks. I volunteered to have my fingerprints taken by the police so they could run a background check on me. I passed. Like the vast majority of gun ownSEE LETTERS, A7

ers I am also a responsible citizen. Did you know that as a group, citizens with concealed carry permits are less likely to commit a crime than cops? Sue Todd Yates in a letter published Oct. 22 quoted an often repeated statistic about 40 percent of gun sales being done via the internet, at gun shows or other private sales without a background check. That is simply not true. The Washington Arms Collectors (WAC) hold gun shows all over the state. In October alone they held seven shows. In order to purchase a gun at a WAC show you have to pass a background check. In order to purchase a gun off the internet you have to pass a background check. The gun must be shipped to an FFL. Check out gunbroker.com or gunsamerica.com and see for yourself. Let’s not kid ourselves, I-594 will do nothing to reduce gun violence. The only thing it will really accomplish is to
increase the cost and paperwork for gun owners. Under I-594 if I loan a gun to a friend he has to pass a background check, then I have to pass a background check to get it back. This is true even though we both have passed background checks in the past. Under I-594 if I simply handed my friend the gun, I’d now be a criminal. Really? Is that how you want our understaffed Island County Sheriff’s office spending their time? Let’s not criminalize legal behavior. Vote NO on I-594. DAVID SHUPE Clinton

By contrast, her opponent recently stated in a candidate forum that if elected she would consult her own husband and Yahoo in order to determine county investments. Please. That comment alone should make it crystal clear who should actually be entrusted with our county funds. Let’s re-elect Ana Maria Nuñez as Island County Treasurer. MERRI HUFFINE Oak Harbor
Editor, The members of Mardi Unit of Ryther Children’s Center League would like to express their sincere gratitude and appreciation to the Holmes Harbor Rod and Gun Club for extending their generosity in hosting the annual dinner/auction for Mardi Unit.
Such a kind gesture in community participation to help further awareness of the availability of Ryther services to the youth of South Whidbey who may be needing help with problems of chemical dependency, neglect or abuse. Thank you so much. JEANNE BEALS Clinton
Editor, I hope voters have noticed that our Island County treasurer, Ana Maria Nuñez, has been endorsed by the Washington State treasurer as well as by fellow County treasurers. There’s a good reason for that: Ms. Nuñez is highly qualified and a leader in her field. Her peers know that.

Cougars break away in second half By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Through the first half, South Whidbey and Lakewood seemed destined to go tit-for-tat for the duration of the Cascade Conference football game Friday. The third-place Cougars (5-1 conference, 5-3 overall) were fighting for the playoffs, however, and burst from a 31-22 lead at halftime to win 53-22. With the threat of a rainstorm looming, Lakewood appeared content establishing its running game early. The first score came on a 34-yard dash by Cougar senior Curtis Patton. South Whidbey (1-5 conference, 1-7 overall) answered with its own strong runs by senior Deven Damerau and the passing game dished out by senior quarterback Parker Collins. The Falcons connected on passes to sophomore Connor Antich, junior Charlie Patterson and senior Mo Hamsa to get near the Cougars’ end zone, setting up Collins’ 2-yard touchdown run. Falcon junior Anthony Eveland tied the game with the extra point kick. On the ensuing possession, Lakewood’s run game moved the ball in chunks. Led by senior quarterback Blake Watts, the Cougars charged from their own 20-yard line before Cougar junior Tyler Courtney punched in a 3-yard score. Employing a bit of trickery, the Cougars faked the extra point kick with a two-point pass from Cougar senior Brett Bustad to junior Joshua Dickey. South Whidbey put together a long drive - long in the number of plays, not in yardage. The Cougars attempted an onside kick that was quickly recovered by the Falcons near midfield. Collins’ passing was on point. He completed five consecutive throws to Antich and

Angus Jones brings down Lakewood quarterback Blake Watts on Friday. The Cougar senior had two running touchdowns and threw a score. Patterson before an incompletion in the end zone, intended for Antich, was flagged for a defensive penalty. Collins tried to find Antich for the score again, but the pass was defended by Watts. The drive resulted in a missed field goal by Eveland. Lakewood built its lead from there on a field goal, a 6-yard run by Watts and a 75-yard pass from Watts to Dickey. The Falcons punctuated the Cougars’ possessions with a touchdown drive of their own. Collins threw a dart to the middle for Hamsa, who shook off the defender and strolled into the end zone. South Whidbey’s final score came in the last minute of the first half. The Falcons took the ball on their own 40-yard line after another onside kick attempt by Lakewood. Collins heaved a deep pass that was tipped by a Cougar
defender, popped behind them to the awaiting arms of Patterson, who marched unchallenged into the end zone for a 45-yard touchdown catch with 5 seconds left before the break. Collins connected with Hamsa for the two-point conversion. Defensively, Lakewood put on the clamps in the second half. The Cougars chewed time in the third quarter on their scoring drives: a 3-yard run by Bustad followed by another fake extra point kick and two-point pass from Corey Glover Jr. to Courtney; a 4-yard scamper by Courtney and a 1-yard dive by Watts. South Whidbey hits the road for its final regular season game against fellow 1A league team Sultan (1-5 conference, 2-6 overall) on Friday, Oct. 31.

All six South Whidbey tennis players eliminated at bi-district tournament Six Falcons’ boys tennis seasons are over after being ousted from the bidistrict tournament.

Seniors Charley Stelling and Jonathon Peterson reached the third round after winning their first match 6-1, 6-2 against Seattle Academy’s Augie Bartlett and Robert Winton. Stelling and Peterson fell to University Prep’s Christian Keanui and Jasen Mansfield 6-4, 6-3. The Falcons fought off elimination with another victory over a Seattle Academy team, this time over Richard Khang and Aidan Wood, 6-4, 6-0. Elimination came at the hands of the tournament’s top-ranked doubles duo from Seattle Academy, Connor Rice and Charlie
Phelps 6-1, 6-3. South Whidbey’s second doubles team, Hank Papritz and Jacob Nelson, were bounced in the third match after defeating Bush School’s Brennan Commons and Jack Agostini 6-1, 6-4. But Papritz and Nelson were quickly dropped by Rice and Phelps in their next match 6-0, 6-1. The Falcon duo fought University Prep’s Hyunane Kim and Josh Wah-Blumberg but fell 7-5, 4-6, 6-3. In singles, seniors Campbell Albertsen and Trent Fallon represented South Whidbey. Fallon was eliminated after the first match against Bear Creek’s Adam Worley 6-1, 6-1. Albertsen won his first match against Bush School’s Noah Medina 6-3, 6-4. Albersten was swept to the consolation bracket by Jack Katzman 6-0, 6-0. Overlake’s Loucas Tsilas eliminated Albertsen from the tournament with a 6-2, 6-1 win.

Local writers craft stories, share knowledge By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record Ánie McMahon-Grace, a Clinton resident, homeschool student and aspiring author, sat patiently at the front of the classroom at Coupeville Middle School Saturday afternoon, pen and notebook at the ready, awaiting author Deb Lund’s instructions on how to become “a fiction magician.” McMahon-Grace was one of several teens and young adults who attended this year’s Whidbey Island Writers Conference, seeking the opportunity to converse with fellow writers and learn more about her craft through workshops such as Janet Lee Carey’s class on World Building, Deb Lund’s class on tips and tricks for writers and Nicole J. Persun’s writing and publishing class which was designed specifically for young people. McMahon-Grace said she has been writing for quite some time, and is presently working on a steampunk book and another about ghosts in the White House, but had yet to take any formal classes. More than a writer, the precocious teen said she is determined to be a proponent for demolishing stereotypical story patterns. Her villains will not wear black; male and female characters in her books may become friends without developing a romance. “It feels like 90 percent of

Over 200 Pacific Northwest writers like McMahon-Grace came from Oak Harbor to Bellevue and beyond to convene for the 16th annual conference, an event put on by the Northwest Institute of Literary Arts. On Friday, writers and presenters gathered in bed and breakfasts and

private homes throughout Coupeville for chat house sessions which were followed by a slew of evening activities such as open-mic poetry and fiction readings. Saturday kicked off with keynote speakers Aaron Patterson and Nicole J. Person, the latter of whom presented the Young Writers Conference. These were followed by the afternoon workshops, including another session for Young Writers, and opportunities for attendees to consult one-on-one with
agents and editors and an evening book signing reception and party at Greenbank Farm complete with music by Western Heroes and an emotionally provocative keynote presentation by Daniel James Brown. The final day commenced with casual conversations about marketing, craft, publishing and poetry at Greenbank Farm. According to Northwest Institute of Literary Arts Marketing Director Jeanne Juneau, the numerous emails and comments from attendees expressing posi-
tive feedback about the conference have been “the best measure of success I could have imagined.” Janet Lee Carey, author of six published young adult books with a seventh in the works, attended and presented at the conference for the first time Saturday afternoon. Her workshop on building the intricate and fantastical worlds of science fiction and fantasy attracted a number of writers interested in subjects such as the linguistics of fictional languages and the character of setting. Carey has presented as a workshop leader and keynote speaker at several other conferences such as the Pacific Northwest Writers Conference, the Surrey International Writers Conference and the Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, but wrote in an email to The Record that she had been impressed with the Whidbey Island Writers Conference’s “strong craft focus.” “Craft savvy and marketing savvy are both key parts of a successful writing career, but we shouldn’t let marketing eclipse craft,” wrote Carey. “Happily, the Whidbey Island Writers Conference had a great balance of both.” During Carey’s Saturday afternoon workshop on world building, she pointed out that any experience can be used in the construction of a fictional story, recalling her own experience living on a commune with her husband as an example. Carey said these experiences
informed her creation of the fairy society in her book Dragonswood, although she noted that she and her husband did not live on the same sort of “free love” centered commune present in the book; a commune of that kind neighbored the one on which she lived. “I thought a communal living situation with no marriage and ‘free love’ would be interesting,” wrote Carey of the creation of the Dragonswood world. “That communal living along with a monarchy not based on birth but on the concept of dominating alpha animal — the one with the most power reigns —helped me create an interesting fairy kingdom.” Jim Freeman, host of Friday evening’s poetry slam at Bayleaf in Coupeville, said there were 14 poets who stepped up to the mic to share pieces with the group. “All of the poems are as unique as their authors,” said Freeman, who read aloud his own poem “Ode to a Load.” During the slam, poets were tasked with creating poems on the spot using at least three of 18 audienceproduced words. All readers received prizes from Freeman’s shed. “Our slams are poetry hugs, not really slams,” said Freeman, who has been hosting a poetry slam at the conference every year since its inception. “All are winners,” he said.

WICA opens dramatic reading series with Poe By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record
Nevermore will South Whidbey residents want for a taste of Victorian era macabre. Whidbey Island Center for the Arts and director Gwen Jones will debut the first in a series of dramatic literary readings entitled “Masters of the Pen” with a night of Edgar Allan Poe. The reading will be presented at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 30. Tickets are $10 and may be purchased from the box office or online at wicaonline.com. During this initial performance, actors Ethan Berkley and Lucy Pearce will read from four classic tales including “Annabel Lee,” “The Telltale Heart,” “The Oval Portrait” and “The Raven” penned by master of horror, Poe. Each piece presents its own flavor of madness from what Pearce and Jones refer to as “madness in loss” in “Annabel Lee” to the more physical horrors of “The Telltale Heart.” “The whole idea of Masters of the Pen is to read stuff that people have heard of or read before and introduce them to
some lesser known pieces,” said Jones. Jones, an avid fan of old radio mysteries, noted that there is something distinctly frightening about hearing a horror story and being forced to use imagination. “In today’s horror, especially around Halloween, we’ve gotten lazy. We expect something squirting out of someone’s body or chainsaws ripping. …I think we rely too much on seeing the horror instead of feeling the horror,” she said, explaining that in most modern films and plays, there is not much left to the imagination. “The ideal of Masters of the Pen is to have people remember their imagination,” she added. Jones said that Poe’s work leaves much to the reader to decipher and, in many cases, introduces the reader to relatable or likable characters who have “a twist to them,” usually in the form of madness. She noted that, ideally, the project will be a long-term endeavor spanning several years and including the works of 80 or so different authors. In the spring, she hopes to host an evening of Mark Twain and an afternoon with Dr. Seuss.

from his chin. Langer has not trimmed his beard for almost a year and says he hasn’t been clean-shaven for at least 5 years. The reason for the 11-month trimmer hiatus was in preparation for the international facial hair competition held Oct. 25 at the 3,000-seat Keller Auditorium in downtown Portland. Growing a beard, though admittedly lazy for Langer, can be hazardous. Langer recalled using a posthole digger, clamping the handles shut, pinching part of his beard, and driving it down. It hurt, and Langer was missing a few strands. “I was getting it into everything,” he said. The event was quite the show, according to
one of his five Whidbey friends who traveled to support him. Teachers Mark Hodson, Andy Davis, Charlie Davies and Chad Felgar, along with former football assistant coach Jim Thompson, were all there
to root on their champion. Whidbey was represented in style. All of the Whidbey men wore white T-shirts with Langer’s face — complete with facial hair — screen printed onto the front, with “Whidbey
Whiskers” on the back. Wherever they went, they
drew attention. “People were trying to trade us shirts and offering to buy them,” Hodson said. “There’s only six of them made.” During the competition, Langer strolled on stage wearing the white shirt with his own face on it along with a handful of other contestants in the full-beard, styled-mustache event. While some of the other men used styling aids, Langer stuck with his gut and let the Whidbey wildness of his mustache shine. “I wish I would have done more, after the fact,” he said. “They do the hair spray and the curler. They really go after it.” As judges reported their scores, Langer said he thought he was passed over after the third-place votes were cast without his number, 5, listed. But he received a pair of first-place votes, wildly exceeding his goal to get a single vote of any kind. “We just wanted to see one person vote for him,” Hodson said. “Then when he gets two first-place votes,
we went absolutely insane.” Langer, who said his daughter loves his beard and his girlfriend hates it, is undecided on the fate of his facial hair. With the winter holidays approaching, however, Langer has a simple option.

sit board and the acting director. Other members are Langley Councilman Jim Sundberg and Island County Commissioners Helen Price Johnson and Aubrey Vaughan. Oak Harbor Councilman Jim Campbell resigned from the board and called on the other board members to do likewise. The Oak Harbor council appointed Dudley as the city’s representative on the board until the end of the year. Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy said Dudley is welcome to address the council, but that he has no plans to replace Sundberg. “My sense is that Jim Sundberg is a very qualified person who has a lot to contribute to solving the problems at Island Transit,” he said. He pointed out that Sundberg has experience working with municipal budgets for nearly a decade, has a master’s degree in city planning and training in human resources. Sundberg has been on the transit board for two years. “To solve the problems, they need someone with institutional history,” he said. Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard said she appoints representatives to the transit board each February; the council approves the appointment. She said she has no intention of removing Clay from the position ahead of the normal schedule, but that the council could decide otherwise. Island County Commissioner Jill Johnson pointed out that change is
$500,000 by the end of the year. He said he wants to stay on because he has the experience and knowledge necessary for the future. Island Transit has been in the spotlight over the last few months because of financial problems that led to layoffs and cuts in bus routes, including the end of Saturday service. Campbell said during the Oak Harbor City Council meeting Tuesday that he was comfortable with Rose leaving, but that the entire board should also go. He said he hopes he was only the first to resign. “I’m not comfortable at this point that everything we need to do has been done,” he said. “I believe there’s one more major step and tonight I want to kick that step off.” Campbell said he wanted Dudley to continue as his replacement.

Whichever commissioner candidate wins next week will replace Vaughan, who was appointed this summer, as soon as the election is certified. Johnson said she intends to ask to be on the Island Transit board, but she will need at least one other vote. Regular committee and
board assignments are made at the beginning of the year. She said it would be foolish to replace Price Johnson at this point. Johnson pointed out that the three commissioners serve on a total of 23 committees and boards; she said their top priority is the county’s budget. She said the board members should

cil agreed and named the mayor as the city’s representative on the board until the end of the year. In an interview, Campbell said the board members were just as culpable in the mistakes made as Rose. “If we fired her, we should fire ourselves,” he said. Island Transit is overseen by a board of five, consisting of two county commissioners and a representative from Oak Harbor, Coupeville and Langley. Dudley said he’s glad to be back on the board and wants to move forward quickly with finding both an interim and permanent director, as well as creating a strategic plan to go forward.

MANAGING BROKER CERTIFIED RESIDENTIAL SPECIALIST
ENJOY THE BREAD AND BUTTER Bring a fresh loaf of bread home and watch the family’s reaction. The first slice smells so good. Family members are likely to break out the sandwich meat and dig in right away. Later, however, the bread is a little dry and stale, and no one will touch it. Planning to sell your home? The day it goes on the market, it’s like that first slice. You’ve painted, cleaned, and you’re excited. Your representative has promoted your home to their enthusiastic agents who have qualified prospects. Like the family members who rush for the first slice, there is likely to be a flurry of activity. If a purchase offer results from that early activity, be prepared to accept it. Early on, prospects are likely to be more excited and emotional, often resulting in an excellent offer. It is critical that you be prepared to accept the offer quickly. Later your home becomes “stale,” attracting less attention and lower offers. Be ready early, and you’re most likely to earn the best sale.

CONSUMER ALERT
Scammers are targeting newspapers Credit card scam artists have conceived a new scheme involving newspapers. Law Enforcement advises the usual precaution: Use caution when speaking to anyone about sensitive financial information over the phone. The scammers pose as advertising representatives from the newspaper, and call customers who have placed ads or classified notices, to report a problem with the customer’s credit card. The callers say they need to confirm the card number and security code on the back of the card. These callers are not from this newspaper. This newspaper will attempt to collect payment on returned checks and invalid credit card payments; but advertisers would receive calls from our accounting department seeking an alternate payment method. To be sure you are speaking with an authorized representative of our newspaper, use these following tips: • Ask the caller to identify himself/herself and the office he/she is calling from, including the address. If you do not recognize the caller, hang up and call your local newspaper office directly. • Before providing payment information to a caller, ask for information that would be unknown to scammers. This could include your billing address or previous payment information. A newspaper representative can verify your original payment method, check numbers, banking institution and/or the last four digits and expiration of your credit card. • If the caller claims your check was returned or credit card was declined, verify this information by calling your bank or credit card company or by checking your bank statement. If you receive a scam call like this, write down all information you can about the call, such as: the caller’s name, phone number, time of day and duration of call. If you feel you have given your information to one of these scammers – Immediately contact your bank and/or credit card company to place a hold on the transaction in question or on your account and begin a fraud investigation. Callers who may have already given financial information to callers should also call their bank or credit card company to place an immediate hold on their accounts and begin a fraud investigation.
If you are a victim of this scam please contact this office 360-394-8704, your local police department, or the consumer fraud division of the Washington Attorney General’s office.
