City councilors back parks plan SHS tennis court closures leads to girls team cuts

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Tennis and pickleball players now have some verbal support from Sequim city councilors for new courts.

City councilors unanimously approved the 2015 Parks and Recreation Master Plan on Monday, which in-

cludes tentative plans to build eight pickleball courts in 2016-2017 valued at $150,000 and four tennis courts in 2017-2018 valued at $225,000.

However, finding financing remains the biggest obstacle for the city and sports enthusiasts.

Joe Irvin, Sequim parks manager, said the plan is a vision document

showing the city’s needs in the next 20 years for its parks.

The plan allows the city to become eligible again for grants by the end of the year, Irvin said, but the master plan’s six-year Capital Improvement Program allocates $4.3 million to projects but the city historically spends about $600,000 on park

“This board is 100 percent behind making certain SARC continues, but the method is what needs to be PICKERING discussed,” Frank Pickering, SARC Board of Commissioners chairman, said.

Recovering from the recent failure of a levy proposal for 12 cents per $1,000 of assessed property valuation, or about $26.04 per year for the average $217,000 home – Pickering said the commissioners “have to get this settled in the August election.”

To pass in the February special election, the 27-year-old facility needed a super majority (60 percent), but fell short with 57.5 percent of the 12,626 votes cast.

“I think we shocked a bunch of people with how many yes votes we got,” Pickering said. “The public will is out there.”

“Cliff did volunteer work because he wanted to do it, not for the honor,” Esther Nelson, a past Citizen of the Year, said.

Vining was nominated as Citizen of the Year once before, but wouldn’t accept the award, Stephen Rosales, Sequim Food Bank board president, told those attending the luncheon. Only after convincing from Rosales did Vining agree to accept the second nomination.

Boys & Girls Club gift aimed at essentials

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Throughout the years Sequim residents Robert and Ruth Worley have made contributions to a variety of causes, such as the Peninsula Home Fund, local school districts, Goodwill and KSQM, but most recently the couple turned their generosity toward the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula.

Unlike many donations the club receives, the Worleys’ donation was “unique,” Sara Maloney, Boys & Girls Clubs resource developer, said. The $5,000 was made for a specific use and thus earmarked “to provide essential services to under-privileged children,” she said.

The donation will help provide youth that otherwise couldn’t afford things like a haircut, school sweatshirt, shoes, undergarments or bus pass, Maloney said.

“We’re in a position now that we can do things like

The Clallam County Health Department confirmed on Feb. 20 that a 14-year-old boy has contracted the measles.

He is the sibling of Clallam County’s second recent case, a 5-year-old kindergarten girl who attends Olympic Christian School.

The boy has been quarantined during his infectious period, the health department reports, and he hasn’t

had any public contact.

A person with measles is contagious from about four days before the onset of a rash to four days after the rash appears and should not be in contact with any susceptible persons during this time.

The Health and Human Service, Public Health Section continues free MMR immunizations from 8:30 a.m.-noon Tuesday, Feb. 24, and 8:30 a.m.4 p.m. Thursday and Friday, Feb. 26-27.

Where: 400 W. Fir St. Phone: 683-8095 On the web: www.bgc-op.org this,” Robert Worley said. “I was the oddball in school and I don’t want other children to feel the way I did.”

Having grown up in Kansas during the Depression, Robert Worley explained he knows all too well what living without is like. While his peers wore jeans to school, he wore his only option – bib overalls.

“Growing up, I didn’t know how to relate to the other children,” he said. “And, I didn’t have anything like the Boys & Girls Club.”

Every new year Robert Worley was given a new pair of overalls and shoes. The annual outfit would have to sustain him through the school year and then serve as his work clothes.

Although Robert Worley came from little financially,

he is quick to acknowledge he has led a “wonderful” life along with his wife of more than 50 years.

Robert Worley, long retired from his career with the federal government and 22 years with the Air Force, and Ruth, a retired nurse, feel “fortunate” to be able to contribute toward the Boys & Girls Club and hope to “prevent children from feeling like they’re different or don’t belong,” Ruth Worley said.

To encourage those able to give to do so, in the future the Worleys said they may consider doing something like a donation challenge where they would match another donor’s contribution.

From page A-1 improvements over six years. At the city’s current rate of spending, it would take about 43 years to pay for all of the proposed projects at today’s prices.

“Parks and recreation hasn’t been a high priority in the city’s first 100 years,” City Manager Steve Burkett said. “But we’re looking ahead to the next 20 years and we’re asking if we want to change that trend. (The plan) outlines $4.3 million worth of projects and the big question is does the community want to do them and which way.”

Irvin said the project needs will be proposed for the whole city’s Capital Improvement Program, which includes streets, sewer and water and other projects before going into the proposed 2016-2017 budget in November.

In the master plan, some of the proposed funding options include seeking grants, using real estate excise tax dollars, creating user fees and/or forming either a Metropolitan Parks District or parks and recreation district service area.

“The formation of a Metropolitan Parks District is a very reliable and sustainable funding mechanism,” Irvin said. “I definitely feel it will be an important policy issue to discuss in the coming months.”

Strong support The Sequim Transit Center was packed into the lobby with tennis and pickleball players ranging from students to senior citizens, with more than a dozen speaking in support of new courts. Most of

A proposal from the Sequim Picklers suggests eight new pickleball courts at one of four sites in the City of Sequim. A majority of Sequim city councilors voiced their support for building new pickleball and tennis courts in Sequim as soon as possible.

Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash the city councilors favored finding a solution for the courts after hearing testimony from dozens of advocates.

“If there was any doubt we needed pickleball and tennis courts, the attendance tonight put that to rest,” said Councilor Ted Miller.

“It’s frankly an embarrassment to the city not to have public pickleball and tennis courts.”

Councilor Genaveve Starr agreed saying she wants to “see the city hurry up and get us tennis courts and pickleball courts any way we can.”

Councilor Laura Dubois said she supports the courts but she takes a more pragmatic approach to the plan.

“We’d love to be able to build all of these things,” she said. “This master plan is an important beginning step so we can get grants.

People need to understand if we get a one-time grant, we need to

City seeking to fill vacancies

The City of Sequim is accepting applications to fill one vacancy on the City Arts Advisory Commission and one on the Parks and Recreation Board.

Applicants for both the City Art Advisory Commission and the Parks and Recreation Board must reside within the Sequim city limits. The term for the City Arts Advisory Commission expires Dec. 31, 2019. The term for the Parks and Recreation Board expires on June 30, 2017. Both positions will remain open until filled.

For more information or to obtain an application, contact the Sequim Administrative Offices, 226 N. Sequim Ave., Sequim, WA, 98382, call 683-4139 or visit the city website at www.sequimwa.gov.

have a revenue stream for maintenance and operations for any facilities that we build.”

Previously, city councilors tabbed tennis courts for future construction in a parks master plan in 1997 and in 2006 but city staff did not include them in the projects list in the annual budgets, Irvin said Members of the Peninsula Tennis Club approached city officials in 2005 with an estimated $180,000$272,000 plan that may have included grants for creating courts in public parks.

Its most recent proposal calls for four new courts at about $273,000.

The Sequim Picklers formed a committee, the Pickleball Facility Committee of Sequim, to assess its needs after attending a joint meeting between the city council and City Parks and Recreation Advisory Council in December. The draft plan didn’t call for pickleball courts until 2019, so the committee created a plan estimating a need for $150,000-$177,500 for eight courts. They’ve also applied for a local community project request grant sponsored by State Rep. Steve Tharinger through the Legislature for upwards of $200,000.

JoAnne Yerkes, chairman for the committee, said they’ve identified four locations to consider in the future for new courts — at SARC, Carrie Blake Park, by the Sequim Boys & Girls Club and expanding

Annual plant clinics begin WSU Extension Clallam County Master Gardeners will begin weekly plant answer clinics for the 2015 season in Port Angeles on Monday, March 2. The clinics will be held from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. each Monday (except holidays) through Oct. 26 in the lobby of the old Clallam

From page A-5 decided to accept,” Rosales said. “A big light went out in Sequim. The food bank wouldn’t be what it is today without Cliff Vining.”

In recognition of the decades Vining devoted to the Sequim Food Bank, the organization’s Executive Director Mark Ozias nominated the honorary pioneer for the Sequim Citizen of the Year Award.

Vining spent several hours, nearly everyday of the week at the food bank for 30 years, Ozias said.

“It’s incomprehensible to think just how many people’s lives he impacted over the years,” he said. “His legacy is built on helping one individual person at a time.”

Ozias explained the timeless lessons he learned from both working with and watching Vining at the food bank. First, Ozias endearingly coined the way Vining would move while relocating large crates of food as the “Cliff Shuffle,” but it reminded him to always “take small steps.”

“There is not a mountain or goal that can’t be achieved if you have the patience,” Ozias said.

Secondly, Ozias was reminded by Vining that to “serve others is the best reason to wake up every morning.”

Given Vining’s dedication to stay active in his community even into his 90s, Ozias was continually reminded

by Vining’s presence to “just keep moving.”

“Determination to just keep moving allowed him (Vining) to move mountains of food at the food bank, but it could have been anything,” he said.

Because Vining didn’t say much about his ongoing volunteer work, he also was County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

Saturday plant answer clinics in Sequim will start on May 23 at the Master Gardener Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, Sequim.

Plant answer clinics are available to the public for help in answering gardening questions and solving insect and plant disease problems in home landscapes and gardens.

Max Nelson Peabody Jr.

een ort een eat rlic

Max Peabody, patriarch to an extended family far outnumbering his immediate children and grandchildren and beneficiary of an extraordinary zest for living, passed away in Sequim, Washington on February 11, 2015 He was 96.

Max grew up in Portland, Oregon where he married the late Jean Long Peabody.

He attended the University of Oregon where he became a lifelong Duck fan.

Drafted in 1943, he served in the Philippines and occupied Japan receiving a field promotion from Corporal to First Lieutenant.

Alaska exerted an early and irresistible pull on Max. Before the war he and Jean lived in Kodiak.

In 1951 he drove the Alcan Highway to Anchorage with his young family where he worked in the transportation industry.

In the early 1960’s they homesteaded land near Talkeetna, Alaska.

As an outgrowth of his transportation employment, he worked in Saigon in 1967-1968 before moving to Bend, Oregon where he owned the Century West Tap Room.

In 1975 he again went to Alaska where he worked on the Pipeline.

There he met his wife Mary. They subsequently moved to Bandon, Oregon where they owned a clothing store, then Vashon Island, Washington where they ran a Bed and Breakfast.

They retired to Pioneer Square and then, in early 2014, to a house in Sequim.

Max is survived by his wife, Mary Peabody; children Max (Peggy), Amy (Joseph),Richard (Malou), Wim (Angelina) and grandchildren Alison, Megan and Michael Peabody and Logan DeSantis.

He was preceded in death by his wife Jean, sister Betty and son Doug.

a constant reminder that “actions speak louder than words,” Ozias said. Lastly, Vining reminded Ozias and all those around him the importance of to simply “have fun.”

“He was just that kind of person … hard-working with a kind heart,” Vining’s nephew, Ray Vining, said.

Vining grew up in Sequim and graduated from Sequim High School in 1939, but moved to Grandview in the early 1940s to help his father with their farm.

Following a variety of careers within the dairy industry, Vining farmed grapes and asparagus and eventually sold and repaired radios and televisions at his store, Cliff’s TV. “Always having in mind a desire to return to Sequim, with the sale of the vineyards we took the opportu-

nity and moved to Sequim in 1982,” Vining wrote in “Sequim Pioneer Family Histories From: 1850-World War II.” With his wife, Bette Lou King, Vining left Grandview nearly 40 years later bound for Sequim where the couple enjoyed retirement together until Bette died in 2005 after 57 years of marriage.

“I love Sequim … especially the weather and the beauty,” Vining said only a few days before his death.

The 2014 Citizen of the Year Award engraved to Vining is to be mounted on the wall in the Sequim Food Bank as a quiet reminder of his tireless and forever appreciated community support.

In January, Laurie Stewart, president and CEO of Sound Community Bank, celebrated 25 years with the organization.

Stewart, a former Sequim resident, was hired in 1989 as president and CEO of Associated Grocers Federal Employee Credit Union (AGFECU). In the ensuing 25 years, the credit union converted to a thrift and is now a fully STEWART public company traded on the NASDAQ. Stewart oversaw the growth of the organization from $38 million to $496 million in the span of 25 years.

Note: Making the change from oil and acrylic to watercolor becomes a challenge to work from light to dark - keeping colors transparent and no use of white - because it is opaque and you lose the glow a true watercolor painting has.

It’s a difficult transition to make for any artist.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks for ‘yes’ votes A sincere thank you to everyone in the community who supported the recent Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center (SARC) levy attempt. The entire campaign was a continuous flow of energy from many people who gave both time and effort. Despite our best attempt, the final results were only a 57.48 percent approval, which was short of the required 60 percent voter approval.

The SARC Board is facing some difficult decisions in the near future and looks forward to your continued support of our publicly owned community recreation center.

Thank you.

A+ for Anytime Fitness I would like to comment on your Feb. 18 article regarding Anytime Fitness (“OMC clients continue rehab in Sequim,” Sequim Gazette, Feb. 18, page A-7). I have been a member for several years, starting out just for general fitness.

The following year I had knee replacement surgery and their trainers adjusted my fitness program to include balance and leg strengthening exercises. A while after that another situation developed and I went through OMC’s wonderful pulmonary rehab program.

Wanting to continue that rehab, I went back to Anytime Fitness and asked what they could do. Once again they adjusted my fitness program to support pulmonary rehab.

Now my program is targeted to all of my objectives: general fitness, balance, strength in upper and lower body and build up of the core. The owners and trainers attention to clients’ needs, their knowledge of the body’s skeletal and muscle systems, and their skill in tailoring equipment and exercises to your physical requirements is unsurpassed. I highly recommend Anytime Fitness.

Straight talk about obesity I thought it took a lot of caring for Bertha Cooper to say it plain and straight — what gall makes parents rationalize their child’s obesity is not their responsibility! (“Personal choice or public good or both?,” Sequim Gazette, Feb. 18, page A-10.)

I feel it’s been the least talked about and most important issue we face — a death knell of multiple health problems these parents are ensuring for their children. It deeply saddens me every time I see obese parents with their children and invariably observe their children are also obese — even fat rolls on 3-4 year olds.

When in the grocery line I can predict the size of the parents and their children by just looking at what they are purchasing before I look at them or their kids. Cancer from smoking and secondhand smoke will look like child’s play compared to the financial collapse that will occur for any health system due to significantly overweight and obese parents who care less about their own health. However, they should be arrested for child abuse when they also could care less about their child’s obesity they contribute to and ignore. Cancer from cigarettes was not visible to the naked eye. With obesity, all they have to do is stand in front of any mirror with their children.

What’s best for community?

Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center may or may not ask for another levy as a county parks and recreation district, but you’ll undoubtedly have the opportunity to recant your last levy vote in months ahead.

As a commissioner of Clallam County Park & Recreation District 1 (SARC), I’m obliged to ask you, the voters, to do due diligence and read the statues of the two proposed levies: 1) Metropolitan Park District, RCW 35.61 2) Park and Recreation District, RCW 36.69, SARC’s present mandate.

A clear and concise comparison of the two can be found on the web under “comparison of recreation districts MRSL” or their RCW chapter numbers.

There is only one question you’ll have to ask after reading these statutes: Do I trust a professional politician with my vote and money forever?

As a property owner, I believe SARC is a viable part of this community; a social service created for and by the community through its taxing powers; an amenity that adds value across all social veneers. Hopefully, you will take the time to become knowledgeable on a subject that will influence your community for years to come.

Failing businesses a sign of a weak economy For the first time in American history, entrepreneurship is in decline.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, businesses are dying faster than they’re being formed. Each year, 400,000 new businesses start up nationwide; 470,000 close their doors.

Gallup reports that in the 1980s, business startups outpaced business failures by about 100,000 per year, a trend that continGuest ued until the 2008 O pinion recession. Now, after six years of sluggish Don Brunell economic recovery, the entrepreneurial death rate in the U.S. is outpacing its birth. In fact, the U.S. now ranks 12th among developed nations in terms of business startups, behind nations such as Hungary and New Zealand.

This matters because small and mediumsized businesses create two-thirds of the 100 million jobs in our nation.

But isn’t the economy improving? Barely.

One quarter of decent growth is followed by a quarter of slow growth. While the national unemployment rate has dropped to 5.6 percent, part of that drop is because millions of people have simply given up trying to find work and are no longer counted as unemployed.

Middle-income families are losing ground and a record 47 million Americans – onesixth of our population – are on food stamps.

While welfare and social spending provide a safety net in a weak economy, the only real solution to unemployment is to create more jobs. But those jobs will be harder to come by if entrepreneurs stop opening the businesses that employ people.

Jim Clifton, chairman and CEO of Gallup, writes, “(Wall Street and the White House) both tell us, ‘The economy is coming back.’

Let’s get one thing clear: This economy is never truly coming back unless we reverse the birth and death trends of American businesses.”

Two of the most formidable obstacles facing entrepreneurs are high taxes and excessive regulation, especially for cash-strapped startups. Unfortunately, the Obama Administration has aggressively pursued both.

The U.S. has the highest corporate tax

rate in the world, yet President Obama’s 2015 budget includes $2 trillion in new taxes over the next decade. While the president says he’s taxing only the wealthy, the taxes will hit many small business owners who file taxes as individuals.

Then, there are the regulations.

The Competitive Enterprise Institute says federal regulations cost Americans $1.9 trillion a year and notes that regulators imposed 3,541 new regulations in 2014 alone.

Continuing the juggernaut, the administration unveiled 300 new regulations in the first seven days of 2015.

A CEI study released in January reported, “If federal regulations were a country, their cost would amount to the world’s 10th largest economy.”

While reasonable regulations are necessary, unnecessary bureaucratic red tape needlessly increases consumer prices and saps money that otherwise could be used to expand businesses and hire more people.

Added to that are the costs to comply with hundreds of state and local regulations.

The House of Representatives recently passed the Regulatory Accountability Act of 2015 which requires regulatory agencies to clearly document the cost of proposed regulations and consider less costly alternatives.

President Obama has vowed to veto the legislation.

Here in Washington, Gov. Jay Inslee is taking a page directly from President Obama’s playbook. Inslee wants to increases taxes, impose costly new cap and trade legislation that would cost Washington employers $1 billion a year and start taxing investment income.

That’s a bad idea.

While our state’s economy might look good from the governor’s window and from the skyscrapers in downtown Seattle, 90 percent of Washington counties have unemployment rates above the national average.

As with President Obama, Inslee’s top priority must be creating jobs – not piling more taxes and costly regulations on the very people who create those jobs.

Several searches in the remote area were unsuccessful and officers later discovered the tracking device antenna had been removed and the van no longer was able to be tracked. The device, however, did send a signal when the van was turned on. Vinyl van lettering remnants and other items that had been on and in the van were found in the area.

Just after midnight on Feb. 17, Sequim Police Officer Rick Larsen spotted Gilbertson and the stolen van on Washington Street. The van was behind Sequim Police Chief Bill Dickinson, who was in his unmarked vehicle.

As the three vehicles traveled onto West Sequim Bay Road, Gilbertson attempted to go around Dickinson, but the police chief prevented Gilbertson from passing. Larsen

From page A-1 again for a levy or attempt to create metropolitan parks district.

To help inform the commissioners and public about the two options, Craig Miller, attorney for SARC, presented to an audience of more than 100 individuals Feb. 18.

The maintenance and operation levy available to SARC, if passed, would expire every six years and thus require the support of the super majority each expiration.

In comparison only 50 percent of the voters are needed to approve a metropolitan parks district. Once approved, it doesn’t expire and the new board created to manage the district would have the ability to levy up to 75 cents per $1,000 assessed property valuation.

After being released from Olympic Medical Center, Gilbertson was taken to the Clallam County Jail. Gilbertson is a person of interest in number of burglaries

“The pitfall (with a metropolitan parks district) is basically getting it passed and creating a brand new and possibly unlimited taxing district,” Miller said.

However, Miller noted, a metropolitan parks district recently was approved in Seattle and similarly, the William Shore Pool in Port Angeles was founded around a metropolitan parks district.

Although the board governing the Port Angeles metropolitan parks district has the same legal freedom to levy up to 75 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation, William Shore Pool Executive Director Steven Burke, told the Gazette that the pool’s levy rate is about 16 cents now.

A metropolitan parks district is the best option for SARC’s longterm sustainability, he said.

The Clallam County Criminal Investigation Bureau is continuing the investigation.

Special SARC meeting set

The board of directors for the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center meets at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26, at the facility’s gymnasium, 610 N. Fifth Ave. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss future levy options and vote on a resolution. Call SARC executive director Scott Deschenes at 360-683-3344, x12, for more information.

SARC officials have two options: a petition with signatures from at least 15 percent of the registered voters or a resolution of the Sequim City Council and Clallam County Board of Commissioners.

If a metropolitan parks district is approved, a five-person board would be created to govern the new taxing district. The new board would consist of all voterelected members or under an

Clallam County’s sixth annual Project Homeless Connect is less than a month away. On Wednesday, March 6, local people who do not have safe, secure housing will find one-stop help at Port Angeles’ Vern Burton Center, 308 E. Fourth St., from 9 a.m.-3 p.m.

“Each year, some people who are homeless when they come in, have a safe place to go home to by the end of the day,” said Mercy LuquettaCole, interim director of Clallam County Homeless Outreach, which is the organizing entity.

VIMO manager Mary Hogan said on-site medical services will include wound care, diabetes screening, influenza and T-DAP vaccinations for uninsured adults and information for screening for cervical, colon and breast cancer.

interlocal agreement among the Sequim City Council, Clallam County Board of Commissioners and SARC Board of Commissioners, it would require one county, one city and three elected members, Miller explained.

“If a metropolitan parks district is passed in August, it would be possible to levy a tax in 2016,” Miller said. “The board of the new entity gets to set the new levy amount.”

Following the approval of a metropolitan parks district, SARC and all its assets would be transferred to the new entity and there would be little need for the SARC Board of Commissioners.

Additionally, any organization beyond SARC interested in funding from the metropolitan parks district would have to be approved by the board, Miller said.

“The fact that a metro requires only a 50 percent vote and does not have to revoted on every six years makes it a very attractive and attainable longterm solution for SARC’s annual financial shortfall problem,” Gill Goodman, SARC commissioner said.

However, SARC commissioner Jan Richardson is leery of a metropolitan parks district because once created, the public has given up its right to vote on SARC and whether it remains within the community, he said.

“Even the commissioners have disagreements,” Pickering said.

“But this board is committed and bottom line is something must happen in August.”

If SARC officials are unable to ensure additional funding for the community facility, its doors will be closed Dec. 31, 2016, Pickering said.

OVCF makes grant to B&G Club Executive Director Sue Ellen Riesau of the Olympic View Community Foundation recently presented a check for $950 to Executive Director Mary Budke at the Boys & Girls Club of the Olympic Peninsula. The grant was for the purchase of a software program titled “Armatus.” This abuse prevention training program is endorsed by Boys & Girls of America and is designed to teach volunteers, employees and children to prevent sexual abuse and exploitation. Some features of the program are online abuse prevention training, social networking dangers, quarterly webinars featuring best practices and a 24-hour telephone hotline. One of the most important features of “Armatus” is the “Your Boundaries. Your Call” — an educational program teaching youth how to protect themselves if someone tries to violate their emotional, physical or behavioral boundaries.

At NOLS, se habla literacy

Off the Shelf Mary Coté

Promoting literacy is a primary value of libraries everywhere.

The North Olympic Library System maintains a strong commitment to providing early literacy services and programming for children, as well as literacy education and enrichment opportunities for all ages.

A few recent implemented, literacy-related library resources merit this months’ spotlight: Storytime to Go kits, Laubach Way to Reading materials and a new Spanish language page on the library website.

‘You’ll be staying another night’

by WILLIE WEIR For the Sequim Gazette

Story time to Go Kits Did you know you can take a library Storytime to Go kit home? Interacting, reading and playing with children before they enter school plays a critical role in their development. But who doesn’t need a little inspiration? Storytime to Go kits are a great way to engage the young persons in your life about the day’s events, play and sing with them, and rhyme with rhythm.

To get started, search the library catalog for “Storytime to Go” and browse the bundle of fun books, puppets, CDs (and sometimes felt story boards!) that are available for checkout.

There are 20 variously themed kits that explore everything from robots and pirates to cats, school, monsters and more.

Excerpted with permission from his book, “Travels with Willie: Adventure Cyclist” I pedaled my touring bicycle into the town of Middlemarch on the South Island of New Zealand in a drizzle, just as a group of men in Scottish garb were filing out of a meeting hall.

“You got a place to stay?” a man holding a bagpipe asked. “My name’s Neal, and if you cycle down that road, I’ll meet you out by our driveway.”

About 20 minutes later, there was Neal, out by his mailbox as he had promised. He greeted me with, “You’ll be staying another night. Tomorrow’s New Year’s Eve. That’s no night to be alone in a tent, now is it?”

Neal introduced me to his wife, Wendy, and his son, Toby, age 9, and his daughter, Megan, age 6, before showing me to my cozy guest room in their beautiful 1917 farmhouse.

I had a feeling I’d remember this particular holiday. Boy, was I right. How many people

Day

Pam Larsen will discuss how microbes in the soil promote healthy plant growth, at noon Thursday, Feb. 26, in the county commissioners meeting room of the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

Her presentation is part of the Green Thumb Gardening Tips brown bag educational series sponsored by the Clallam County WSU Master Gardeners.

Larson will explain how plants invite plant-benevolent soil bacteria and fungi to partner with them and form beneficial relationships, and without which the growing process can’t function as well.

For the past 2-3 years Larsen has been researching the scientific findings on plant and microbial interactions in order to be able to translate relevant data into gardeners’ language to help gardeners improve understanding and methods and be more supportive of Nature’s perfect system.

From page B-1 can say they spent New Year’s Eve touring around in a bus with a New Zealand highland pipe band. And not your average pipe band — this one was comprised of four bagpipes, two drums and two saxophones.

But in a small town, you take what you can get.

The guys in the band were dressed to the hilt — or should I say kilt? They all looked authentic, except for those two saxophone players. I couldn’t help calling them the “McBlues Brothers.” The small school bus was driven by Wendy, chosen for her ability to drive a multi-passenger vehicle and willingness to drink soda without the scotch.

The first stop was someone’s garage.

The handful of observers outnumbered the band, which assembled in a semi-circle around a table filled with munchies, beer and scotch. They blew out three or four numbers and then it was time to drink and chat.

The next stop was the golf course, where only the proprietor was present.

“One more than last year,” someone commented.

The band played in the small ceramic tiled bar/clubhouse. A serious problem with bagpipes is their lack of

across the county. The 2015 show promises to be even better, with paintings, drawings, glass work and sculpture. Multiple prizes will be awarded.

Two-dimensional and three-dimensional pieces are accepted with the threedimensional pieces limited to 50 pounds in weight.

Sunday, March 1, from 10 a.m.-4 p.m. is the day students will turn in their pieces approved for the show. The “intake” will be at The Landing.

Also, applications are online at sequimarts.com.

An artists’ reception and awards ceremony will be from 4-7 p.m. Saturday, March 7. The awards will be presented at 5 p.m.

Priscilla Messner Patterson’s painting “Electra Glide in Grey” received an Honorable Mention in the Gamblin Artists Oil Colors Torrit Grey competition. Torrit Grey is a combination of all the pigments Gamblin collects from its Torit® Air Filtration system.

Rather than send the leftover pigments to the landfill, the pigments are mixed to create a grey, or what they call Torrit Grey, and then packaged and sold as a mid- to dark range neutral pigment. Every year the color is a little bit different. The competition objective was to create a painting using only its Torrit Grey, black and white. Colors of Sequim provided the Torrit Grey pigment.

At 11:59 p.m., I asked the woman in front of me what they did at midnight.

She put down her beer and free sausage (provided by the pub in gratitude for a month’s worth of business in one night) and said, “Not much.”

She was right. The band was halfway through “Auld Lang Syne” for the second time before anyone noticed we were in a new year.

At 2:30 a.m., as the bus rocked and bumped its way down farm roads, Neal leaned over and said, “You’ll be staying another night.”

“I’ve got no plans,” I replied.

Prosser, Craig end season at state Sequim Gazette staff

One Wolf found a way to put a stamp on a fine prep career, the other a freshman who stepped onto the big stage.

Sequim High School senior swimmer Eric Prosser and SHS diver freshman Mathew Craig finished their respective seasons at the state 2A meet, held Feb. 20-21 in Federal Way. Prosser set a personal best in the 100 backstroke with a 1:00.76 in the preliminaries on Friday and kept his No. 14 spot with a 1:01.08 finish in the finals on Saturday.

Prosser also competed in the 200 in-

dividual medley Friday, finishing out of the running for the finals with a 2:14.64 mark, good for 22nd place overall.

This marked Prosser’s third state appearance in as many seasons.

“This is the first year he has been able to swim in the state finals,” Sequim coach Linda Moats said. “He was very happy and we are all very proud of him.”

Craig, one of just three freshmen competing in the 2A ranks, tallied CRAIG 197.45 points in Friday’s preliminaries to qualify for Saturday’s

finals, where three strong dives in the end helped him move up to 15th place.

“For his first year of diving, he has performed very well and we look forward to state trips each of the next three years with him,” Moats said.

Sequim finished 33rd at the state meet. Port Angeles finished eighth as a team on the strength of John Macias’ two second-place finishes (100 backstroke, 100 freestyle).

Anacortes won the boys’ 2A team title with 226 points to edge Sehome by a point, in a competition that came down to the meet’s final event (400 freestyle relay).

Mt. Vernon man wins derby’s $10K prize Sequim competitors take fourth, fifth in annual competition Sequim Gazette staff

With 860 tickets sold and nearly 300 winter blackmouth chinook salmon over 6 pounds submitted in 2015, the Olympic Peninsula Salmon Derby had its best year in more than a decade.

For Jerry Thomas of Mount Vernon, the numbers were even better.

Thomas’ catch on Sunday, Feb. 22 — an 18.95-pound salmon — was best of the weekend as he took home the derby top prize of $10,000.

Second place and $2,000 went to Julia Hunter of Neah Bay with a 16.6-pound fish.

The $1,000 third-place prize, donated by 7 Cedars Casino of Blyn, went to Ron Lampers of Snohomish with a 16.25 pound salmon.

The top Sequim finishers were fourth-place finisher Dave Christopher with a 15.85-pound catch and fifthplace finisher Carl Adams at 15.05, both catches made on Friday, Feb. 20. Tony Rogers of Sequim was 10th at 13.95 pounds.

This year’s event included many first-time participants

— a good sign for future derbies — and big prizes and great conditions drew a large number of competing anglers, derby organizers said.

“Last year we got slammed by the weather,” Dan Tatum, president of the Gardiner Salmon Derby Association, said. “This year was the opposite – great weather with good fishing.”

Anglers were in competition for a big prize list worth $22,269.

A total of 292 winter blackmouth chinook salmon topping 6 pounds were submitted, exceeding last year’s total of 171 and handily beating the previous year’s record of 249. Average submitted weight was 9.3 pounds.

The most successful fishing area this year was in the traditional derby hub near Discovery Bay and Protection Island, derby organizers said.

Plans for using the 2015 derby proceeds will be decided with community input.

Tatum noted that donation plans will be discussed at an appreciation dinner, an annual community potluck dinner scheduled for 6 p.m.

Jerry Thomas of Mount Vernon shows off his winning fish from the 2015 Olympic Peninsula Salmon Derby.

The dinner coincides with the association’s annual meetings.

website (www.GardinerSalmonDerby.org) for details.

For three quarters, it looked like Sequim’s Wolves were well on their way to earning two more games in the postseason.

And the Olympic Trojans, those familiar foes from the Olympic League, came alive.

The Trojans outscored Sequim 33-11 in the final period to stun Sequim 59-41 in the consolation semifinals of the West Central District tournament Feb. 19 in University Place.

Olympic wound up placing sixth in the tournament and, along with Sammamish, Washington, River Ridge, Fife and White River, will play in a regional bracket for berths to the class 2A state tournament.

The Wolves finish the 2014-2015 season with a 16-8 mark.

Sequim, seeking a return to the state tourney after a one-season absence, got 22 point s from A lex Barry in his final game.

His 3-pointer with 4:50 left BARRY on the clock had Sequim up 37-35.

But after that, it was all Trojans. Olympic star guard Makaleb McInnis, playing his second consecutive game with an illness, responded to Barry’s triple with one of his own, and Olympic never trailed after that, finishing the game on a 21-4 run.

Barry finished 7-of-20 from the field (including 3-of-9 from long range) and had 13 rebounds, four blocks and two steals.

Payton Glasser had seven points while Vance Willis chipped in with four points, three assists and four steals.

SOCCER

Gonzalez duo sign deals with pro teams They made history playing for each other and Pirate teammates at Peninsula College.

Now, soccer star brothers Miguel and Daniel Gonzalez will be competing against each other in the United Soccer League’s professional division. Miguel recently signed on to play for the Colorado Springs Switchbacks while Daniel will play for the Oklahoma City Energy.

“It’s been great having my brother as a teammate for all these years,” Miguel Gonza lez sa id. “ We k n o w how each other plays and that allowed M. GONZALEZ us to connect well. Now we will be playing against each other, which will be different, but I’m looking forward to it. It should be a lot of fun.”

Miguel Gonzalez played the striker position for the Pirates in 2010 and 2011, leading the men to a West Division championship and an NWAC championship with 15 goals. In 2011, he set a single-season scoring record with 34 goals and finished with 49 for his career, winning the West Region Most Valuable Player Award

both years. He went on to play at Seattle University, where he was named the Western Athletic Conference Offensive Player of the Year in 2013.

Daniel Gonzalez arrived at Peninsula in 2011 to play the position of central midfielder for the Pirates.

The combined efforts of the Gonzalez brothers D. GONZALEZ helped the Pirates to a West Division title and a third-place finish in the NWAC. Daniel set a new single-season assist record in 2011 with 15. Then, in 2012, he led the Pirates to another West title and a second NWAC title, finishing with a school-record 23 career assists. He was named to the NWAC West All-Star Team both years.

Natives of Yelm, the Gonzalez brothers joined forces again after college, signing with the Kitsap Pumas, a USL Premier Development team out of Bremerton.

During the 2014 season, the former Pirates helped the Pumas to an impressive second-place finish in the PDL, falling to the Michigan Bucks 1-0 in the championship match.

at North Dakota school A former Wolf is continuing her career on the volleyball court.

Taylor Balkan, a first-team all-league setter for Sequim High and star at Clackamas Community College in Oregon City, Ore., will play on at Valley City State University in North Dakota in the fall.

Valley City State coach Adam Longmore announced the addition of Balkan, a 5-foot 7-inch setter and 2013 Sequim High grad, to VCSU’s roster for the 2015 season last week.

“Taylor comes to us from a consistently successful program at Clackamas,” Longmore said. “There is something to be said for a setter coming in with that kind of experience. She has all the attributes you look for in a setter. We are excited to have her in the gym with us and she is going to heighten our level of play.”

Balkan averaged 5.26 assists per set as she helped Clackamas to a 37-13 overall record and a 10-0 record in division play in 2014. She was named an all-league honorable mention. The Cougars finished fourth in the Northwest Athletic Conference in 2014 and seventh in 2013.

Balkan plans to study

Registration form, fee and a concussion information sheet must be signed and handed in at the beginning of the first session.

Participants are asked to bring shorts or sweatpants, a T-shirt and a good attitude; wrestling shoes are optional.

Balkan is the daughter

River Ridge ends Sequim’s season at district tournament A dominant performance

by River Ridge on Feb. 16 closed out Sequim’s 20142015 season. River Ridge topped Sequim 59-30 in the consolation quarterfinals of the West Central District tournament.

Sequim (10-13) had kept its dreams of a state berth alive with a second-round win over the Evergreen Ea-

gles on Feb. 13. The Wolves upped their game in the district’s second round for a 40-23 win to eliminate the Eagles (12-10), who lost the opening round against the North Kitsap Vikings 55-18.

Liberty (district champs), Sammamish, White River, Olympic, River Ridge and North Kitsap earned berths to regionals.

to 13-for-43 from the field overall (30 percent) and forced 17 turnovers.

McInnis led Olympic with 21 points while Damarius Johnson added 19.

“Makeleb came alive when we needed it,” Olympic coach Devin Huff told the Kitsap Sun. Huff has high praise for Sequim coach Greg Glasser.

“I’d want my son to play for him,” Huff told the Sun. “He’d be a better man and a better player. He’s the class of this league.

It’s always a dogfight when we play. They (Sequim’s Wolves) are always disciplined so you’ve got to be locked in.”

Olympic was the lone Olympic League team out of five to advance through districts.

Thursday’s elimination game was the final appearance in a Sequim uniform for seniors Barry, Willis, Austin Adams, Dustin Bates, Adrian Espinoza, Alex Rutherford and Josh McConnaughey, who missed the final game because of an injury.

In the consolation, he won 16-10 over Tristian Wallersted of Tumwater but lost 13-10 to fifth-place finisher Dustin Nading of R.A. Long.

Drabek said Ward was up 10-7 with about 30 seconds to go but Nading countered to score six points in that span.

“I wanted it so badly for him,” Drabek said. “He had a good attitude about it though. Next year, he’ll realize he should have medaled and use that.”

As a team, Sequim ended three seasons without a team win and won seven dual meets and finished 4-4 against league opponents.

SPECIAL Artist's Receptio n Sunday, M a rch 1 1:00-3:0 0 pm

The Shipley Center Thursday painters began their journey on Feb, 10th, 2011 and have advanced with their watercolor experience.

Some had been oil or acrylic painters, but watercolor was a challenge and they well deserve this exhibit. I am proud to present them to the community.

Judy Priest, Volunteer Instructor Note: Making the change from oil and acrylic to watercolor becomes a challenge to work from light to dark - keeping colors transparent and no use of white - because it is opaque and you lose the glow a true watercolor painting has.

It’s a difficult transition to make for any artist.

been working much harder in the offseason. She was one of two underclassmen to medal in her weight class.

Drabek said Mendoza and Pierson always work hard in practice.

“They are working hard to perfect the sport and it’s showing,” he said. “I think they’ll definitely move up next year.”

Pierson, one of Sequim’s many new high school girl wrestlers, had to play a pigtail match against Anesia Ramirez of Lakes, who took second overall, to decide their match-ups at state, She opened against weight class champion Cameron Guerin of Davis to survive the first round but was pinned in 2:33.

In the consolation, Pierson pinned Tempprince Gibbons of Napavine in 43 seconds and defeated Korbyn Cadle of Mount Baker 11-4 before losing to sixthplace finisher Sierra Joner of Battleground by pin in 2:27.

For seventh/eighth, Pierson lost to Makayla Grimm of Columbia Burbank 5-2.

Guerin and Pierson were the only freshmen to medal.

Ditlefsen, a senior, returned to state for the third time and after taking eighth last year. This year she won her opening match against Natalie Hall of Pasco 6-2 before losing to Ally De La Cruz of Kamiak, the eventual third-place finisher, 7-1.

Ditlefsen lost in the consolation to fifth-place finisher Bethany Davis of Yelm 7-6.

Drabek said Ditlefsen definitely had aspirations of going out on a higher note but he’s excited for her college career in wrestling.

“She was a big part of our team for four years,” he said.

Ward, a junior, took the first seed out of regionals after sweeping his opponents the week before. He opened with a loss to fourth-place finisher Andy Vargas of Quincy

Jackson Oliver scored 20 points, Barry had 18 and Willis added 17 as Sequim knocked off Renton on Feb. 17 in a West Central District tournament consolation quarterfinal game.

Sequim came out hot by scoring the first seven points and grabbing a 21-8 lead with just five minutes elapsed. Leading the way was Willis, who scored 14 of his 17 points in the first quarter.

Renton trimmed the lead back to five after one quarter (25-20) and just two at intermission (32-30), but then Barry began to take over, hitting for 11 of his 18 points in the second half.

Sequim jumped to a 5946 lead on a Willis 3-pointer — his only basket of the second half — and Renton was forced to foul to try to stay in the game.

Barry finished with 14 rebounds to become the school’s all-time rebound leader with 621, passing former teammate Gabe Carter (609).

Rutherford had six points, Bates had five and Glasser added four. Oliver was 8-for12 shooting and Willis had six assists.

children have time to play. If you give a child a choice of watching a cartoon on television or an older child a choice of using the cellphone or the computer to play games, you will find free play slipping away.

It is probably more exciting to play a game or just relax and watch than to actively engage in play. But neither the TV nor the computer involve the skills we have talked about that he can learn from active play.

So make time for play. Bring out the dress-up clothes for him or her to pretend. Save your old hats or purses to be used in make believe.

Let him play with friends or alone — both ways he is learning. Think about buying toys that encourage him to be creative rather than ones that can only be played with one way. Play with him but let him set the rules or tell you what is happening.

In other words, don’t take over; just play and enjoy it. Even you might learn something; that’s what play does to you.

Monologues From page B-1

Sunday, March 8, as a Second Stage Production.

Three women — Alexandria Edouart, Maggie McDougal and Jennifer Sies — bring the series of sometimes perceived controversial monologues to the stage from a diverse group of female voices from a little girl to an elderly woman.

“The thing I don’t think people understand is that these are all real stories,” DelaBarre said. “They did it by interviewing all sorts of women, different kinds of women from different religions and ethnicities.

The stories are real. The life experiences are real.”

Overcoming taboo is something DelaBarre said the play handles well.

“The reality is, I would bet money every woman alive has experienced at least one of these stories,”

Shelf

From page B-1 has a new Spanish language page with information about library services and policies.

Begin at www.nols.org and select “Español” from the “Services” menu.

This new page was created to provide better access to library services and resources, and to improve the library’s communication with Spanish-speaking patrons. General questions also may be e-mailed by using a special link on the page, with a reply in Spanish, of course.

Laubach Way to Read

SEQUIM GAZETTE she said. “It’s always nice to know you’re not alone.”

McDougal agrees saying that many of the monologues she reads on stage are something she might write or think herself.

“I can relate to a lot of it,” McDougal said.

For the play, each actress takes on multiple roles, sometimes appearing alone and together.

DelaBarre said monolo g u e s r a n g e f r o m a 72-year-old woman, who refers to her genital area as “down there,” to a young girl raped by war militants who describes her life poetically.

“None of t hem are preachy,” DelaBarre said.

“I always feel there is a concern of focusing on rape and molestation, but that’s not the intent at all.”

McDougal said the purpose of the play isn’t to shock people but help create open-mindedness.

“It draws attention to the word (vagina),” she said.

readers who may not have reached a reading level with which they are satisfied, NOLS offers materials from the Laubach Way to Reading.

For more than 30 years, the Laubach technique has used phonics-based practice manuals to help adults with limited literacy skills grow into confident and passionate readers.

To find this important collection, search the library catalog using the terms “Laubach Way” or “adult reading education.”

Actresses, from left, Jennifer Sies, Alexandria Edouart and Maggie McDougal rehearse the opening dialogue from “The Vagina Monologues,” a Second Stage Production at Olympic Theatre Arts’ Gathering Hall.

Monologues’ up there,” she said. “Even in the introductory monologue we deal with the residual embarrassment in just acknowledging the word.”

Theater volunteers hope “The Vagina Monologues” follows in the success of last March’s “Love, Loss and What I Wore,” by Nora and Delia Ephron.

“That was a softer sell and touched on some of the same things as this,” DelaBarre said.

“One of the reasons we do a Second Stage is to offer things that are edgier, and to start a conversaton,” she said. “This falls out of the norm and I think it has a tremendous amount of appeal.”

SPERRY is a super smart boy! He knows lots of tricks, and he’s super friendly with people.

However, he’s not great with other dogs... It would be best that he be kept away from other dogs unless a very neutral introduction with a similar sized dog is done. Sperry is a relatively new arrival so we will update more info soon!

MAX was a shy boy with new people. However, he is beginning to warm up to us and show how sweet he can be! Max definitely needs some training (especially on leash), but he has loads of potential to be a great pet! Max would do best with an experienced owner. Also, Max may be better suited to a home where he can spend most of the day outside -- he doesn’t really know how to behave in a house!
