Collaboration improves population of Olympia oysters in Sequim Bay

by ALANA LINDEROTH

Task force seeks community input

Sequim Gazette

Given the signs of success, county and tribal officials partnering in an ongoing effort to restore Olympia oyster populations within Sequim Bay are shifting their focus to monitoring the growth and survival of their previous work.

“We’re finding that Olympia oysters do really well in Sequim Bay,” Victoria Cantelow, Olympia oyster intern and project manager with the Clallam Marine Resources Committee, said. “The goal is to have a self-sustaining population.”

Discussions for expanding the Sequim Library, 630 N. Sequim Ave., are going back out to the public.

Leaders with the North Olympic Library System seek to form a community task force of five-seven people to JAKUBCIN test the waters again on the community’s interest in the project.

Library Director Margaret Jakubcin and other library leaders say conditions in the Sequim branch remain too small for its current operations.

“There are a dozen operational needs for every square inch, and for library customers frustrated with tight quarters, packed shelves, lack of quiet spaces, crowded parking lots and narrow restrooms, the need for a larger Sequim library is

habitat and importing of Pacific oysters and in doing so introducing other invasive species, nearly collapsed the population by the 1950s.

Olympia oysters may be smaller and slower growing in comparison to Pacific oysters and thus don’t compete with Pacific oysters among commercial and recreational markets, but the ecological benefits provided by the the presence of the native species are driving the restoration work.

Ralph Riccio, shellfish biologist for the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, points out the annual growth Olympia oysters seeded on a Pacific oyster shell to Ann Soule, City of Sequim water resource specialist, and Cathy Lear, habitat biologist for Clallam County.

Thousands of steelhead raised at the Dungeness Hatchery weren’t released into the Dungeness River for the second consecutive year.

Instead the 10,000 steelhead, a searun rainbow trout, were some of nearly 300,000 that won’t be making it to the sea via the Dungeness, Nooksack or Stillaguamish rivers.

A Clallam County woman is said to be the first to die from the measles in the U.S. since 2003, reports the Washington State Department of Health.

Following an outbreak in February where five people from Clallam County were diagnosed with the measles and 11 statewide, health officials report the latest case was found following a recent autopsy revealing an unde-

tected measles infection.

The woman died from pneumonia due to measles in the spring and was most likely exposed to measles at a local medical facility during the outbreak, health officials said.

Dr. Jeanette Stehr-Green, interim Clallam County health officer, said they were able to link the local cases through either family members, co-workers and/ or having been in the same medical facility as a case that was infectious at that time.

She said they are still unsure how Clallam’s first case, a man in his 50s, was infected.

Oysters

From page A-1 “There are great ecological benefits to having these oysters return to where they once were,” Ralph Riccio, shellfish biologist for Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, said.

For example, many micro-organisms and forage fish are associated with natural oyster beds and “we’re just trying to give Olympia oysters a shot at creating a self-sustaining population and natural beds again,” he said.

Unlike Pacific oysters widely sought for harvest, if Olympia oysters can continue to get established, they would be left to provide habitat and a method to filter biotoxins within the bay.

“I’ve heard oysters beds referred to as our coral reefs,” Cantelow said. “Not as pretty to some people, but by having these you have refuge areas and increased feeding opportunities for juvenile fish with all the organisms living within the beds.”

To allow the Clallam County Marine Resources Committee to continue to collaborate with the tribe on the restoration project, Clallam County commissioners unanimously approved the agreement with the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe on June 30.

Since 2012 and the initial effort to increase the presence of Olympia oysters in Sequim Bay, an area that historically supported a healthy population, seeded cultch totaling more than 700,000 individuals have been spread within 1.5 acres of tribal tidelands.

Because last year’s surveys reflected little mortality beyond the expected initial mortality, and instead natural spawning and an increasing presence Olympia oyster beds, Cantelow said it was determined to not bring in more seed, but provide more substrate, such as shells, also referred to as cultch.

“It seems to be the right zone,” Riccio said.

“They like it here and there’s enough Olympia oyster larvae in the water column now to actually make it so that they’re spreading, which is very exciting.”

Given mid-June through August is the typical spawning season of Olympia oysters, plans to monitor in Sequim Bay are ramping up, Cantelow said.

“It will be interesting this year because if temperatures stay higher, it probably will be a longer spawning period,” she said.

Projects In addition to conducting population and spawning surveys, new projects include the use of spawning pools in an effort to increase the rate of spawning and potentially seed surrounding cultch.

Shellfish biologist Ralph Riccio explains how a spawning pool is being used to hopefully induce spawning of Olympia oysters by providing them with protected habitat and thus warmer water. Sequim Gazette photo by Alana Linderoth

“We want to see if we made some sort of pool that would stay stationary out in the tidelands and warms up as the sun hits to initiate spawning in the pool filled with a bunch of cultch, if those those babies would develop and be released right onto the cultch because it’s going to be restricted water flow as well,” Riccio said. “It will be a while before we know if they did actually set.”

Additionally, shell strings (stacks of Pacific oyster shells on a wood dowel used collect Olympia oyster larvae) have been placed in three different areas within Sequim Bay for predetermined periods. Once removed, the shell strings will be used to study Olympia oyster larvae population and exchange within the bay.

Half the shell strings will be collected in August and the others collected next year to assess survival through the winter, Cantelow said.

In collaboration with partners, including officials with the Puget Sound Restoration Fund and the University of Washington also working on restoring Olympia oysters throughout the Strait of Juan de Fuca and Puget Sound, nearly 300 Olympia oysters were gathered from Sequim Bay to try to collect trace minerals specific to that area. The trace minerals found within the structure of the shell that’s created during the brooding phase of Olympia oyster development have a unique signature, Riccio said.

“We want to understand the connectivity between the oysters spawning in Sequim Bay and populations in other areas,” he said.

As work to restore native oyster populations proves to be successful in Sequim Bay, the Clallam Marine Resources Committee is looking for new areas to expand the effort.

“We hope to do test sites of Olympia oysters within Washington Harbor because it’s another area identified as historically containing populations,” Cantelow said.

If feasible, restoration work in Washington Harbor could add another 1-2 acres of tidelands for potential Olympia oyster beds in Clallam County.

Less pop on the Fourth of July Fire officials report just two fireworks-related area incidents

Contributor Bob Lampert captured this images of fireworks over the SequimDungeness valley last weekend. Fire district officials said most fires caused over the holiday weekend were not caused by fireworks.

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

With hot and dry conditions over the Fourth of July weekend, firefighters responded to two confirmed fireworks-related fires in the Sequim area.

“We got off pretty easy,” said Assistant Chief Roger Moeder with Clallam County Fire District 3.

Of the two, the largest was a 50-foot by 50-foot grass fire, said acting District 3 Fire Chief Ben Andrews.

On July 3, firefighters and medics responded to 23 calls, 29 on July 4 and 18 on July 5, with 20 calls from 5 p.m.-2 a.m. July 4-5.

A typical call load in the summer is 18.4 calls per day for the fire department, Moeder said.

He reports that of the Fourth of July weekend incidents, five were brush/grass fires, one was a bird in a power line, a fire in an abandoned boat, three incidents of burning yard debris and seven recreational fires despite burn bans in Clallam County, the City of Sequim and on state lands.

Moeder said six of the seven

recreational fires were reported on the Fourth of July.

Andrews said one large part in the reduced fireworks-related damage this year was that property owners were aggressive in keeping hoses on incidents until firefighters arrived.

Despite the low incident total, fire officials were ready for much more.

Andrews said the fire department typically staffs eight at a time but they brought in three additional off-duty firefighters for July 3-4 for the 48 hours.

“What’s strange is that we

either have 30 calls in six hours or we have three,” he said. “We were preparing for the worst and praying for the best.”

Andrews said there weren’t any known reported fireworks injuries in Sequim either.

A week prior to the Fourth of July weekend, the phone lines were burning up about the dry conditions and fireworks concerns, Moeder said.

“People weren’t understanding that the burn ban doesn’t include fireworks,” he said.

In Clallam County and the City of Sequim, fireworks are al-

The committee’s role, Jakubcin said, is to raise public awareness on the issue and facilitate community input into a schematic design process, project budget, funding options and timelines if necessary.

Applications are accepted through Aug. 15 by visiting www. nols.org or calling 683-1161.

Elaine Fredrickson, NOLS board trustee, echoed Jakubcin saying the conditions in the library are a daily frustration for users.

“It is not a problem NOLS can solve alone, which is why the NOLS board has initiated a process that provides the most opportunity possible for community understanding, input and engagement around a possible expansion project,” she said.

A study by NOLS’ consulting firm SHKS Architects last year said libraries customarily have 0.5 square feet per person whereas Sequim has 0.2 square feet in its 6,000-square-foot building for about 29,700 people.

A new task force addresses whether or not the community wants to expand the Sequim Library. They’ll also discuss design and budget with library leaders for any possible proposal. Sequim Gazette photo

SHKS also revealed a predesign plan for a new Sequim branch that would include demolition of the existing 6,000-square-foot building and building a new library of about 17,150 square feet.

However, Jakubcin said NOLS isn’t proposing anything to voters but exploring.

The pre-design plan for a new branch revealed in February 2014 was necessary, she said, because it revealed demographic trends, what size the library

CORRECTIONS The grenade that killed Agnew native Richard B. Anderson in World War II was one of the U.S. Marines’ own. An article in the July 1 Sequim Gazette (“Medal of Honor Highway signs honor veterans’ key sacrifices,” page A-12) incorrectly attributed the explosive as an enemy grenade.

The SARC Metropolitan Park District proposal on the Aug. 4 ballot is a proposed $12 per year per $100,000 of assessed valuation. A figure in Betty Oppenheimer’s letter to the editor (“Vote yes on SARC prop,” Sequim Gazette, July 1, page A-10) listed an incorrect figure.

Nancy Biery’s name was misspelled in a letter to the editor in the June 24 edition of the Sequim Gazette (page A-10).

needed to be and if it could fit on the existing property.

“This (task force) is a necessary thing and part of the responsible process because we wanted as much community input as possible to facilitate that conversation,” Jakubcin said.

“If you skipped over this phase, you’d basically be making up a number to put in a bond. It wouldn’t fly very well with the public so we’re being responsible with the planning.”

As part of the next steps, the library trustees tentatively would hire an architect to create the schematic and project designs while library staff would investigate the next steps for forming a Library Capital Facilities Area,

1st PLACE EVERY YEAR Since 1995

likely following the boundaries of the Sequim School District, and asking voters to support funding the building by passing a bond.

Jakubcin said task force members would be involved in community outreach, schematic design and the capital facilities area formation.

Other options such as partnering with the Sequim School District in some capacity with an expanded library are still part of the conversation, Jakubcin said.

Library leaders explored options with the schools and City of Sequim but plans were shelved as the Sequim Civic Center developed and the schools’ proposed bonds failed.

Jakubcin said the community had extreme views of a joint Sequim High School and Sequim Library with many for and against.

In 2010, voters approved a 50 cents per $1,000 assessed property valuation for NOLS and library leaders promised not to return to voters for at least 10 years for more funding.

Jakubcin said there is no elbow room with their budget but it is feasible to expand a library without considerable staffing changes.

The last active case of measles in Washington this year was reported in late April. Autopsy results from the woman were released on June 30 to health officials.

Donn Moyer, spokesman for the state Department of Health, said there is no known current danger of infection since the period of exposure (three weeks) is over with no new cases linked to this woman.

The woman was present at the same time as a person who later developed a rash and was contagious for measles and had several other health conditions, health officials said.

“She had underlying illnesses, making her immunocompromised because of either the illnesses that were autoimmune or she was taking medications that might have prevented her body from mounting a defense from measles and other illnesses,” Stehr-Green said.

“She was vaccinated against measles but the critical thing is that even those who are immunocompromised and so ill aren’t able to defend themselves against the measles virus.”

The woman was identified as exposed and processed like others by doctors, but she never had a clear outbreak, Stehr-Green said.

“She didn’t have some of the common symptoms of measles such as a rash, so the infection wasn’t discovered until after her death,” Stehr-Green said.

The woman’s family asked health officials withhold her identity but they agreed to lab testing, which led to the discovery of measles.

“We give a lot of credit to the University of Washington where she received her care and passed away because they feel it’s important (to do an autopsy) and it often provides family closure,” Stehr-Green said.

“Her death has rocked them (her family). They are never going to be the same.

Hopefully the message gets across that it’s important to get vaccinated. You will protect yourself and as equally important your loved ones and neighbors who are vulnerable or can’t mount a good defense against infection.

The right thing to do for the community is get vaccinated.”

Vaccinations People with compromised immune systems often cannot be vaccinated against measles and, even when vaccinated, they may not have a good immune response when exposed to the disease and may be especially vulnerable to disease outbreaks, health officials said.

They recommend everyone eligible for the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine get vaccinated so they can help protect themselves, their families and the vulnerable people in their community.

Moyer said to check with your health care provider to see if you are up to date.

Measles is highly contagious even before the rash starts and is easily spread when an infected person breathes, coughs or sneezes, health officials said.

If you’re not protected, you can get measles just by walking into a room where someone with the disease has been in the past couple of hours.

Children should be vaccinated with two doses of MMR vaccine with the first dose between 12 and 15 months and the second at 4 to 6 years, state officials said. Adults born after 1956 should have at least one measles vaccination; some people need two.

The state Department of Health immunization program has online information about measles and measles vaccine at www.doh. wa.gov.

More information about measles nationwide is available on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website at www.cdc. gov/measles.

Out of her love and understanding of animals, Deborah White of Carlsborg has become the inventor of a dog collar that controls medium and large dogs without hurting their necks when they strain on a leash.

“I came up with the Eazyloop System seven years ago because my previous service dog, a golden retriever, was pulling all the time,” White, a disabled veteran, explained. “I needed something that was a collar that had some action to it — like a martingale collar but engineered differently.”

A martingale is a type of dog collar that provides more control over the animal without the choking effect of a slip collar. White capitalized on that concept and took it several notches up by developing a nose loop/collar system that actually rewards a dog psychologically for not pulling.

The adjustable loop, which stores in a holder on the collar when not in use, features a nylon cord encased in soft plastic tubing that goes under the chin and over the muzzle.

“It’s never tight across the nose so the dog can eat and drink. First and foremost, it has to be comfortable — there’s no pressure on the dog’s neck or nose until the dog pulls,” White said. “The dog walks into the loop and feels pressure, which equals submission, and no dog wants to be in submission because it’s not natural, but they can learn that.

Pressure on their nose is constantly asking them to be in submission.”

White said choke chains, prong collars and even harnesses put constant pressure on a dog’s body even when it’s

not straining, “so it’s not rewarding the tem and when he found out she’d been animal when it is behaving. That’s why holding back on marketing her product, I came up with the Eazyloop System — he told her, “You go, girl!” And so she it rewards the dog immediately when it has with an online store and several stops pulling.” demonstrations with Bella at the Co-op White has seen the Eazyloop System Farm & Garden, which now carries the work wonders on her patent-pending Eazyrescue dog, Bella, a loop collar.

County considers Economic Infrastructure Council Entity sought to better spending approach of opportunity funds

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette The formation of a new council aimed at guiding the expenditures of Clallam County’s Opportunity Fund is beginning to take shape.

The draft interlocal agreement to establish an Economic Infrastructure Council was considered “conceptional” at the end of June when Clallam County Commissioner Jim McEntire first brought the draft to a commissioner work session.

However, after some discussion County Administrator Jim Jones was asked by the county commissioners to edit and shape the draft agreement into something that he could distribute to his counterparts throughout the county.

The Economic Infrastructure

Council likely would consist of a county commissioner, the mayors of Forks, Port Angeles and Sequim, Port of Port Angeles chairman and Clallam County Public Utility District general manager, according to the draft interlocal agreement.

“Eventually, my idea would be this council takes the place of the Opportunity McENTIRE Fund Advisory Board,” McEntire said. “Coordination between governments regarding capital infrastructure is certainly envisioned if not called for in our Comprehensive Plan.”

McEntire added, “If we can connect the Opportunity Fund expenditures in some type of larger context and deliberate infrastructure plan, I think that would be a very good thing.”

Per the Revised Code of Washington, officials of public entities within the county need to communicate prior to the use of any Opportunity Funds. However, when the fund was first formed an advisory board with

appointed representatives was assigned to help review and recommend Opportunity Fund spending — a process managed by the Economic Development Corporation.

“That was deemed adequate to be the method of conversation, but what we’ve heard is these appointees aren’t really conversing with those that appointed them and there’s been some disconnect,” Jones said.

To help remedy this, several months ago Jones met with his counterparts, including managers from the cities, Port of Port Angeles and the public utility district to brainstorm a more direct communication approach in relation to the Opportunity Fund, which is restricted to infrastructure for economic development.

“The idea of a Economic Infrastructure Council was well received when we first approached it,” Jones said. “This would slow down a bit and dot the i’s and cross the t’s to come up with one multi-agency interlocal agreement where we would get together on regular basis each year.”

Establishing a different method

Paid Advertisement

to evaluate Opportunity Fund spending was embedded in the failed change of an ordinance spurred by McEntire in February to amend Clallam County Code 5.30 (Opportunity Fund policy).

“This was a primary goal of that change — to have a better way to coordinate each of our (public entity’s) efforts,” Jones said. “When the EDC (Economic Development Corporation) went to a more primary private sector board and focus, it was felt this type of advisory council to that entity could provide two roles.”

The Economic Infrastructure Council is expected to advice the Economic Development Corporation of the intended goals of public sector entities and foster regular collaboration on updates to individual 10-year facility plans.

“Because all governments are about to embark on their 2016 budget conversation that includes capital spending, this idea may be timely to get the conversation started a bit more formally,” McEntire said.

Ayres forges ahead at the market What’s new at the market is something that dates back to the fourth century B.C. It is chainmaille — yes, the kind that was used by knights slaying dragons.

K a rl Ay re s started a business this year called DEK A, the name is a combination What’s of his and his wife’s names.

New He is making at the nd selling Market? awhat he calls and spells in his Lisa Bridge preferred way, chainmaille. He began at our market a few weeks ago and has been drawing a crowd.

Karl’s passion began in Germany while in the military in 1987 where he became acquainted with a medieval society. This was a natural fit for someone who loved dungeons and dragons. He tells me, “I always felt I was living in the wrong era.”

When his comrades were marveling at the headpieces, he became determined to make one as fast as possible. He came back to the states with a mission and scoured the Goodwill stores for metal coat hangers and began wrapping them around round cylinders and cutting them to make the rings needed.

As it turns out, making chainmaille is a lot like knitting, or “weaving,” as Karl likes to say. One of his first efforts was weaving a green the “green knight” and his hauberk “hauberk” or frock and painting weighed almost 40 pounds. it green.

ing and selling to friends various pieces. Each head piece takes about 1,000 links and fortunately he can now buy a tremendous variety of rings in all colors and metals, so he is no longer working with coat hangers. He tells me he loves working with the different color and metal combinations.

This passion for discovering new weaving patterns for chainmaille keeps him awake at night and his enthusiasm is infectious at the market.

What he sells to customers varies from bracelets and anklets for men and women, to headdresses and very cool hand and foot decor and he even has a hauberk.

Karl tells me he loves to watch

people try things on in his booth. “I love the look on kids’ faces when they put on a piece,” he says.

You will be amazed to see such weaves as the full Persian, box weave, Japanese style, dragon scale and rose pattern, and he is discovering new patterns every week. He has pieces which range from lovely and feminine to heavy and masculine, and he also has been dabbling in the style of steam punk.

Come meet Karl and learn all about the medieval cultural events in our area.

Refuse To Abuse

T

hese days, professional sports teams are expected to publicly address domestic and sexual violence. When they get it wrong, the public lets them hear about it. But that wasn’t always the case.

In 1995, the Seattle Mariners were in a race for the Western Division Pennant and fans adopted the phrase “Refuse to Lose” to cheer them on. It was the first time the team advanced to the American League Championship Series and it was a time when no one in professional sports was talking about domestic violence. The Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence (WSCADV) asked the Mariners if they would collaborate on a domestic violence prevention campaign.

The Mariners response? “Yes. It’s the right thing to do.”

Since that day, the two organizations have partnered on this effort. Refuse To Abuse® includes print, radio, and television public service announcements featuring prominent Mariners players speaking out against domestic violence and promoting healthy, respectful relationships. Having credible, professional male athletes speak out on this issue helps send a powerful message to young people.

A few years ago, Refuse To Abuse® expanded to include a 5K fun run/walk to raise money for WSCADV’s violence prevention work and create an opportunity for Mariners fans to join them and help end domestic violence. The only run to take place entirely at Safeco Field—the course goes through every level of the ballpark, from the top to the players tunnel to a final lap around the field—the event encourages participants to start conversations about healthy relationships with young people and gives them concrete tools to do so.

For the past nineteen years, the Seattle Mariners have done more than just talk about helping raise awareness about this issue, they have stood firm in their leadership role. If you need another reason to feel good about cheering for the Mariners, Refuse To Abuse® is a good one.

Register today for the Goodwill Refuse To Abuse® 5K at Safeco Field at refusetoabuse5k.org.

Steelhead From page A-1

Steelhead typically released in May into the Dungeness River from local hatchery stock were instead transported to Saint Clair Lake in Lacey, according to Steve Thiesfeld, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Region 6 fish program manager.

Waiting on EIS Despite the National Marine Fisheries Service’s conclusion that “the proposed action does not pose unacceptable risk through gene flow to Puget Sound steelhead,” in their Draft Environmental Assessment released in March that analyzed three early winter steelhead programs for the Dungeness, Nooksack and Stillaguamish river basins submitted by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, Jamestown S’Klallam, Lummi Nation, Nooksack, Stillaguamish and Tulalip tribes as co-managers of the fisheries resource, the agency opted to pursue an Environmental Impact Statement.

The decision came after more than 2,000 public comments were received in reaction to the draft.

“Because there were so many public comments we decided we needed to take the more thorough route and do an Environmental Impact Statement,” Michael Milstein, public affairs officer for NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service West Coast Region, said.

Officials with the National Marine Fisheries Service are in the midst of conducting

the Environmental Impact Statement and “hope to have a draft version by the end of the year,” Milstein said, but it may not be done until 2016.

Until a decision based on the Environmental Impact Statement is made by the National Marine Fisheries Service, no hatchery steelhead will be released into the Dungeness, Nooksack and Stillaguamish rivers.

Following its release the draft will be available for public comment before a final decision is made, he said.

“We realize this is a disappointment to some, but it’s our responsibility to ensure Hatchery and Genetic Management Plans are in compliance with the Endangered Species Act,” Milstein said.

Puget Sound steelhead are among the four federally threatened species under the Endangered Species Act that utilize the Dungeness River. Other threatened species include Puget Sound chinook, Hood Canal chum and bull trout.

In doing the Environmental Impact Statement, the agency must make sure Hatchery and Genetic Management Plans also comply with the National Environmental Policy Act. “The Environmental Assessment is the first stage of the review process under National Environmental Policy Act,” Milstein said.

National Marine Fisheries Service officials believe that artificial breeding and rearing steelhead is “likely to result in some genetic change” in hatchery fish and their progeny when they interbreed with fish from natural popu-

lations, but genetic analysis

by Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials aren’t showing this.

“We’re not seeing any integration from hatchery steelhead,” Mike Gross, regional fish biologist with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, said. “But, the key is the early time steelhead.”

Hatchery steelhead have been released in the Dungeness River for decades, according to Gross, however they’re released before the natural steelhead runs occur to reduce interaction and chance of interbreeding.

Also, the number of hatchery steelhead have been limited to 10,000 to be compatible with wild steelhead.

But, with 10,000 fewer steelhead in the Dungeness River, coupled with the previous year’s 10,000 also kept from the river, Gross anticipates a reduction for recreational fisherman.

“There might be a handful of fisherman that would normally fish the Dungeness for steelhead,” he said.

Plenty of pinks The hatchery steelhead fishery may be on pause, but Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials are forecasting a large pink salmon run returning to the Dungeness River.

Pink salmon return to the river every two years to spawn, Gross explained, and because about 29 million were documented leaving the river in spring of 2014, about 1.3 million are anticipated to return depending on how forgiving the ocean was, he said.

“Whether it’s 200,000 or 1.3 million, it’s still a lot of fish … it’s unprecedented,” he said.

Officials aren’t entirely sure why there’s been a sudden increase in pink salmon returning, Gross said, but two years

ago pink salmon also returned in large numbers, resulting in about 400,000 fish.

However, unlike two years ago the drought conditions and thus low river flow coinciding with the large pink run and relatively few federally threatened Puget Sound chinook salmon forecasted to return are cause for concern.

“It will be interesting to see what happens,” Gross said.

“The pinks may respond to the low flows and go elsewhere.”

The pink salmon are expected to begin their journey up the Dungeness River in mid-July.

To prepare, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials have added a new one-month recreational fishery for pink salmon in Dungeness Bay opening July 16. Carefully monitored tribal and non-tribal commercial fisheries also will be taking place within the bay in response to the pink run.

“We’re looking forward to providing people with an opportunity some have been waiting more than 50 years for,” Gross said.

A secondary benefit to the special fishery is it may help manage the number of pink attempting to swim up river and in doing so could crowd the Puget Sound chinook.

“There are specific regulations put in place to avoid chinook,” Gross said.

For example, only singlepoint barbless hooks are permitted.

Despite potential impacts associated with so many pink salmon returning to the Dungeness River, especially during a drought, Gross expects the event to be an “incredible learning opportunity.”

MOUNTAIN VIEW HEARING

571332795

Dr. Donald W. Hegge, MD, passed away on June, 25, 2015 at the age of 78, after a short illness with family at his side.

He was born on his family farm in Littlerock, North Dakota, the youngest of eleven siblings. The family moved to Elgin, North Dakota when Don was seven, where he attended school.

He lost his mother at sixteen and father at seventeen.

He was offered a temporary home with Dr. and Mrs. Buckingham and was thereby able to complete high school in his hometown. Dr. Buckingham awakened Don’s interest in pursuing a medical career aiding others.

Don was an avid high school athlete and member of the 1956 national Championship Football Team, the Elgin Fighting Dutchmen.

Don graduated from high school in 1956. He attended the University of Washington from 1956 to 1959 in Seattle, Washington, where some of his married siblings were living. He returned and attended the University of North Dakota Medical School in 1960 and 1961. Don attended medical school at the University of Washington from 1961 to 1963. During which time, he met his wife, BritaAnn, a postgraduate exchange student in Nursing Administration from Sweden. He had his internship at Detroit Receiving Hospital in Michigan. BritaAnn returned from Sweden and they married in September of 1963.

The couple moved to Vancouver, British Columbia where Don had one year of general surgery. He then attended the urology residency program from 1965 to 1968 at the University of Washington, Seattle Upon graduation he entered the Air force and became the Chief of the Urology Department at the Airforce University Hospital, Maxwell Air Force base in Montgomery, Alabama. Following his honorable discharge in 1970, Don moved his young family to Port Angeles, Washington to become the sole urologist on the Northern Olympic Peninsula for thirteen years.

He practiced until 1994.

During this time, he was actively involved first at St. Matthews Lutheran Church in Port Angeles and, after moving to Sequim, in Faith Lutheran Church.

From early on, Don recognized the need for increased medical care in Sequim. In 1978 he started the preparation to get a medical facility built in Sequim. He was the driving force in getting the Sequim Medical Plaza built and operating. He did so with the involvement of partners from the medical field. Don recruited partners and was the voluntary Chairman of Sequim Medical Plaza, Sequim’s Same Day Surgery and Sequim Diagnostic Services from their opening days in 1981 through the next decade and more. Donald W. Hegge MD, with partners in the medical field provided access to previously distant care and recruited fellow physicians to the area who in turn further expanded area care.

He held memberships in the American Urological Association and the Western Section of Urologists.

His other driving loves included family, travel, sports, architecture and the arts. In retirement, “Doc” as friends and his patients knew him, further pursued these, with extended stays on the Hawaiian islands and three lengthy national motorhome trips, one to Alaska. He and his wife, Brita-Ann, also enjoyed extensive international travels.

Always a Husky, Don remained an ardent sports fan. He also finally had the time to enjoy golfing and swimming. His love and hobby of architecture, a weekend pursuit when he designed and built the family home, was also continued.

He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Brita-Ann; two children Ann-Marie and Eric Donald (Tracy); two grandchildren, Nick and Brianna; and sisters Myrtle Rieker of Glendale, Arizona and Eilene Almos of Moses Lake, Washington; and many nieces and nephews around the country.

His parents, four brothers and four sisters, preceded him in death.

Services will be held Saturday, July 11, 2015 at 1:00 P.M., at Faith Lutheran Church, 382 West Cedar Street, Sequim, WA and will be open to the public with graveside services following.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Faith Lutheran Church or your favorite charity.

Officers make drug arrests in Sequim Sequim Gazette staff

Two persons in Sequim were arrested last week during a drug investigation by local law enforcement.

On July 1, detectives from the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team with assistance from the U.S. Border Patrol, the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office and the Sequim Police

old Aaron Davis, was arrested at a nearby motel and booked under the same conditions.

The search warrant was the result of a three-month investigation into narcotics related activity at this address that was initiated following information received from neighbors, arrested persons and local police officers.

During this investigation, OPNET operatives purchased suspected drugs from this location on at least two occasions from at least two different suspects, according to the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team.

Department served a search warrant at 161 W. Spruce St., Sequim. Ashley Perkinson, 25, was arrested during the search.

Thomas A. Reina, 51, of Sequim, was sentenced in Clallam County Superior Court on June 11 to serve 24 months community custody.

Reina pled guilty on April 1 to two counts of possession of heroin, Class C felonies committed on Dec. 5 and Dec. 31 of 2013.

The charges against Reina were the results of cooperative investigations between the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team and Sequim Police Department. During the investigations, officers developed probable cause to believe that Reina delivered heroin to OPNET in Sequim on Dec. 5, 2013, and that Reina then possessed heroin on Dec. 31, 2013.

According to local law enforcement sources, Reina has six prior felony convictions, which include delivery of a controlled substance, forgery, unlawful possession of a firearm, second degree assault, harassment and manufacture of marijuana.

On June 29, corrections deputy Nathan Clark was sworn in as an operations deputy working patrol for the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office.

C l a r k moves from the corrections departCLARK ment to the operations section of the sheriff’s office.

nology. Clark was employed by the Washington State Department of CorrectionsClallam Bay for about five years and then came to work as a corrections deputy with the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office in December 2005.

For the past 10 years Clark has worked as a deck officer, chain gang officer and facility transport officer while assigned to the jail. He began the Washington State Criminal Justice Training Center, Basic Law Enforcement Academy on July 1.

Calculus, also known as tartar on the teeth is created from residual plaque being calcified by the saliva minerals. That produces a bacteria-infested hard, scaly deposit. Calculus is irritating to the gums and bone supporting the teeth. Some notice it with their tongue an it doesn’t feel that bad. So how is calculus like an iceberg? The answer is that often times there is more going on under the gum line, invisible to the eye and hidden from the tongue.

Much of the bone loss and inflamed gums that leads to teeth loss is due to the surreptitious calculus hidden under the gums. Teeth cleaning by our hygienist removes that problem.

SEQUIM GAZETTE

Odds, ends from the editor’s desk Tuition in Washington just got a bit more affordable. It’s gone from ludicrously expensive to just ridiculous.

After five years of seeing college costs rise 34 percent across the board, legislators decided they’d take a bold step in this year’s 2015-2017 biennial budget and actually reduce tuition rates at four-year colleges and universities along with slight reductions for trade/vocational schools with their not-quite-finished budget last week.

It’s a 20-percent cost cut for resident undergraduate students at the University of Washington and Washington State University, a 15-percent cut for other four-year schools (like Western Washington University, the best school in the state or perhaps the world … ) and a 5-percent cut at technical and community colleges, the first of its kind in the nation.

Tuition at UW goes from $10,740 each year (current) to $9,183 in 2016-2017 and at WSU from $10,336 to $8,837 Editor’s in the same time frame, Corner while two-year schools Michael Dashiell see tuition drop from 3,217 to $3,056.

Schools across Washington saw plenty of good news in the latest attempt by legislators, including $1.3 billion more in school spending and raises to teacher pay, and lawmakers hope this budget fulfills the Supreme Court’s McCleary ruling to fully fund education.

But Randy Dorn, the state Superintendent of Public Instruction, is urging the state Supreme Court to reject the Legislature’s $38.2 billion budget deal, calling it “unconstitutional.”

Dorn said, “Rather than address the unconstitutional use of levies to fund our schools, their budget actually increases reliance on levies. The budget includes a long overdue cost-of-living adjustment for teachers and other staff, but only for personnel funded by the state. School districts will be forced to use levy dollars to provide similar increases to staff funded with local funds … Moreover, the Legislature has failed to comply with the order from the Supreme Court to produce a complete plan laying out a pathway to full funding of basic education by 2018. Three years after the Court ruled in McCleary v. Washington, the State of Washington still has no plan to fully fund our schools and end the inequity produced by reliance on local funding.”

Further, lawmakers still haven’t found a way to pay for Initiative 1351, a measure that lowers class size. State senators rejected a plan that would delay the class size maximums for four years — and the associated costs of an influx of teachers and creating of classroom space — so now the budget has an unbalanced budget to the tune of $2 billion.

Which means their work in Olympia, impressive as it has been so far, isn’t done. The Legislature who passed the first gas tax hike in a decade — and largest (11.9 cents per gallon) rise in the state’s history — is going to need a little more gas in the tank to make it to the finish line.

Ready, set … retire According to a reputable source — OK, it’s SmartAsset, a financial tech company that according to the Huffington Post “uses data to provide answers to big financial decisions concerning home-buying, retirement planning and life insurance needs” — Clallam County and Jefferson County are two of the top counties in Washington in terms of “Retirement Readiness.”

Probably no shock to the many of you here who already are retired.

According to SmartAsset, using a formula involving median household wealth, Social Security income and cost of living statistics, Jefferson ranks No. 3 and Clallam No. 5 in the top counties ready to meet retirement goals on time.

Top of the list is Lincoln County (Eastern Washington),

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Hose brigade may be the way to go

Lcoal property owners’ rights being ‘usurped’

Unimproved sites that sport tall, dry brush surround our neighborhood, so my husband and I have organized a “Hose Brigade.”

We hauled out our unused water hoses, installed fresh rubber hose washers as needed from the supply tied on the water faucet and hooked them up to our existing garden hoses in the front and the back yards with spray nozzles attached.

In the event a brush fire starts, we can just turn on the water and run with the extended hoses to help protect our home as well as the houses nearby until the fire department can get to us.

We talked with our neighbors and they are aboard with the plan, we all know where the water faucets are for each property and we have ganged up to watch for a threatening fire.

A definition of brigade is “a group organized for a particular purpose (as fire fighting).” Maybe other neighborhoods in our community will want to organize and form a hose brigade.

Thank you Sequim Association of Realtors for informing us of the threat to local lifestyle proposed by City Planner Chris Hugo.

When Mr. Hugo was hired, he expressed interest in working here in Sequim “at least 5-7 years” (Sequim Gazette, 2011) which will not be long enough for him to observe the damage he is planning.

We need to stop paying Mr. Hugo over $120,000 annually in support of his quest to usurp the rights of property owners.

Some perspective on what we pay for With reference to “Think out of the box” (Letters to the editor, Sequim Gazette, July 1, page A-11): Whenever I see phrases like “band together and create a bold and perhaps utopian community,” I see higher property taxes and further curbs on private land use.

Then there is the real kicker, “Community that supports our environment by not allowing the military to desecrate ecology,” ad nauseum.

I would like to remind the writer

SEQ

that the reason she has the right to voice this is the existence of a dedicated, well-trained military, which on occasion, has found it necessary to sometimes “desecrate ecology” in order to keep her safe.

SARC is not elitist I am writing this letter in response to all those who have written in stating that SARC is a rich person’s club.

Yes, we have a few passholders with above-average incomes, but there are so many attending with low incomes, myself included.

The pool is especially beneficial as you can exercise without putting too much stress on your bodies.

So please vote yes on Proposition 1 and for SARC. Margaret Watral Sequim

Port Angeles pool a good example of MPD I’ve seen a lot of recent letters raising concerns about a Metropolitan Park District, primarily for SARC. Many of these concerns are seemingly based on not understanding what a Metro Park District can and can’t do, what the history of MPDs has been and a

resulting fear of the unknown.

What is hard to understand is why people don’t look west to the nearby Port Angeles William Shore Pool which was in dire straits and on the verge of closing in 2009.

What kept William Shore Pool open? A Metro Park District. William Shore Pool is now better than ever. Usage has increased dramatically, services have expanded, fees are more flexible than ever and the facility has made capital repairs that had been put off for decades — increasing energy efficiency, saving on operating and maintenance costs and adding to the longevity of the building and its equipment.

The creation of the William Shore Pool Metro District saved Port Angeles’ only public indoor pool, restored it to sound financial and “physical” health and set it on a course to keep it serving its community for generations to come.

If you really want to know what might happen if we create a Metro Park District for SARC, go visit the William Shore Pool. It’s a great example of how a Metro Park District can serve a community, everyone in the community, responsibly.

MPD offers best way to keep SARC open An open letter to the Voters of Park & Recreation District No. 1 of Clallam County: Creation of the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center MPD at the primary election on Aug. 4 offers the best opportunity available to keep SARC open. The SARC Board of Commissioners (Clallam County Park & Recreation District No. 1) urges your support of ballot measure Proposition 1.

I am writing on behalf of the SARC Board of Commissioners to provide information to voters to explain the proposal. In February 2015, the SARC board asked the voters to approve a maintenance & operation levy. This was Guest the first request for a O pinion levy since 2002, operating losses during those Frank Pickering 13 years being paid from reserves accumulated when there was a tax levy. This proposition received a 57.5 percent approval vote. Passage required 60 percent approval.

The levy rate sought was 12 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. The failure of this levy placed SARC in a perilous financial situation.

The current ballot issue is to form a Metropolitan Park District (MPD). Changing SARC to an MPD would allow SARC long-term financial stability. Many have offered ideas but the board strongly believes that there are no simple solutions.

It is important to note that across the U.S. there is no single public mixed-use facility, with a pool, that can balance its budget solely on user fees without taxpayer support. SARC is

The House has passed a gazillion bills to repeal the law and is now, along with the Senate, continuing to defund certain parts of the act, the most recent being to prevent the

unique in having avoided for so long the need for taxpayer support.

In March, the SARC board passed a resolution supporting the efforts of a citizens’ committee to seek an election to form an MPD. If formed, that district would have a permanent tax levy and could assume the functions of SARC and support those functions with both user fees and the permanent levy.

The Citizens for SARC Committee has proposed the same tax rate as proposed by the board in February; 12 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. The board believes this is the best long-term solution for SARC. Passage of the proposition to create an MPD to assume SARC’s functions requires a vote of 50 percentplus-one vote.

A local example of an MPD is the William Shore Memorial Pool in Port Angeles. The MPD was created in 2009 to operate the pool in Port Angeles. Their levy amount was proposed to be 15 cents per $1,000. That amount was actually levied and the amount raised from taxes has remained the same since 2009.

There are 17 Metropolitan Park Districts in Washington and 15 levy at amounts between 15 cents and 52 cents per $1,000, well below the maximum rate of 75 cents per $1,000 permitted by state law.

If the SARC MPD proposition passes on Aug. 4 of this year, it will have the lowest rate of any MPD in the state at 12 cents per $1,000.

The SARC board would like you to support Proposition 1 to prevent SARC from facing closure in 2016. If you would like more information, contact SARC Executive Director Scott Deschenes at 683-3344.

use of insurance fees to operate federal exchanges, cutting operational funds for Obamacare, Medicare and Medicaid and defunding the independent board that identifies ways to lower costs in Medicare and Medicaid.

Obama can veto any of these provisions, which he will no doubt do, but the detractors of good health for all have promised that once in power, they will repeal the ACA and begin picking at Medicare. It’s all “interpretive piggery-pokery” of the most uncaring kind.

Why I’m voting no on the SARC proposition Like the majority of the voters, I voted yes on the six-year tax levy proposed by SARC in February. I thought this temporary tax would give SARC time to get its finances in order and work with the community to prepare a broadly based MPD proposal that would provide needed facilities and services in addition to a pool.

However, I will not be voting for Proposition 1 because it is a completely different a nimal. The SA RC MPD would create a completely new and powerful local government run by and for SARC members Guest and supporters and O pinion paid for by taxpayers — the vast majorSteve Burkett ity of whom are not SARC members. That is why the petitioners named this new government the SARC Metropolitan Parks District!

This new bureaucracy, if approved by the voters, would be created to run a pool and a health club and would have the following powers: 1) Legal ability to levy up 75 cents per $1,000 assessed value in property taxes without a vote of the taxpayers. A levy at this rate would generate approximately $2,700,000 annually.

2) Incur debt on behalf of the taxpayers through bonds and loans — again without a vote of the public.

3) Condemn and acquire private prop-

The moral imperative or not

I don’t want a health care system that is dependent on the people in power. I have said before that I don’t understand a world in which we stand by and allow people to suffer without needed health care.

So that, my dear friend is why I don’t like the ACA/Obamacare and wished for a call for the question of the morality of letting people suffer and perhaps die, that a decision to unplug it might have brought.

As it is, Obamacare is a slowly leaking political piñata.

erty through eminent domain by a vote of the new board.

Is this new bureaucracy with all of these powers really necessary just to keep the current pool open? Why would the current SARC board and members propose such a solution to their pool financial deficit? I believe the answer to that question lies in the irony of the state law.

You see, in order for SARC to get a temporary one-year property tax levy approved by the taxpayers, state law requires a 60 percent approval by those voting. However, this new SARC MPD, which has the ability to levy the property taxes forever, only requires 50 percent voter approval.

Seems to be a loophole in the law that SARC members want to take advantage of. Can you blame them? Getting new taxes approved by voters is tough!

Not to worry though. I understand the SARC slate of candidates for the board of this new local government have said “read our lips” if elected, we only plan to levy 12 cents per$1,000 assessed value, or $440,000 in new taxes, annually. These “election promises” are not legally binding on any board members elected in 2015 or in the future.

Let’s find a more reasonable and less expensive way to keep the pool open. Do we really want to give this power to a new, yet to be elected, board of SARC members and supporters? I don’t think so — I will be voting no on Proposition 1.

Steve Burkett is former city manager for the City of Sequim.

Steve Tharinger, one of our state representatives, said it so much better and in fewer words than I when asked why he thought it was so difficult to provide health care for all in our state. He said, “As we, as a state, work to provide real health care for all, we are challenged by the fact that we have not accepted the moral imperative of providing care. Without this basic acceptance of a moral obligation, we commoditize health care, using the market to determine access with limited moral influence.

This leads to an immensely compli-

cated system that could be simplified by a single-payer trust that focused on health outcomes as opposed to fee for service.”

If only … those words reached into the heart of power.

Letters

From page A-12

Hear my ‘no’ vote

I will never understand why when voters turn something down the people seeking a passing vote have to put it on the ballot again. No is no.

I also don’t understand why taxpayers, most of whom do not use it nor will use it, should help SARC. Citizens have to adjust their budgets when their finances are not good and if they can’t afford something they have to do without.

We are being taxed to death.

I know some are going to have to sell and move because our cities, counties and state think they can dump more taxes on us so they can have what they want. Please vote NO on SARC and the MPD. I can’t afford it.

Sandra Aronsen Sequim

What is it with all this whining I see in the papers about the Metropolitan Park District (MPD) board raising the assessment from the advertised 12 cents per $1,000 evaluation to 75 cents?

The question is why would they? SARC has survived for 13 years while drawing only about $150,000 per year out of their reserves. The problem now is they are out of reserves and this 30-year-old facility needs a new roof and replacement of some major pool mechanical equipment.

The 12 cents per $1,000 valuation will yield about $400,000 per year which is needed to pay for those repairs. I would think that after a few years they may be able to even lower the assessment.

I know of at least five

people running for the board who see SARC as a valuable community asset and just want to see it survive to serve the community. They have pledged to keep the assessment at 12 cents unless it is authorized by a vote of the people. These are still democratically elected positions and they have to run for office every couple of years. If you don’t like what they do, vote them out of office.

Even if that fails, the whole MPD can be disbanded just like it was formed with another ballot initiative.

Like good schools, a library and a Boys & Girls Club, a public swimming pool is a valuable community asset that greatly benefits our quality of life and needs to be maintained. I am voting Yes on Proposition 1 by Aug. 4.

The “All About Pesticides” article (Sequim Gazette, June 24, B-1) couldn’t have been more timely as it offers an opportunity to educate gardeners and non-gardeners alike.

As it stresses, knowledge, caution and common sense are imperative. Of course, following product directions is extremely important.

Pesticides include insecticides as well as herbicides; but herbicides are not insecticides. An insecticide acts, as the name implies, on insect “pests” — living creatures.

Herbicides work on plants exclusively. Clallam County is seeking to use herbicides, not insecticides.

Especially today, herbicides are designed to target specific weeds. Some herbicides are very broad in range. The her-

bicides Clallam County is looking to use are very specific to the invasive weeds we need to control. These herbicides are not absorbed by the physiology of animals/insects. In addition, these herbicides become inert within a short period of time after application.

The Federal Highway Administration’s study, “Literature Review: Pollinator Habitat Enhancement and Best Management Practices

in Highway Rights-of-Way” (www.environment.fhwa.dot. gov/ecosystems/documents/ pollinators_BMPs_in_highway_ROW.pdf) shows each method for control of invasive weeds has its pluses and minuses. It is possible to increase sustainability of roadside vegetation and protect our pollinators as well — with judicious herbicide use.

What’s a wild bird reservation inspector to do?

by JOHN MAXWELL For the Sequim Gazette

“I left Seattle by Puget Sound Steamer at 10:30 P.M. September 16, and arrived at Dungeness at 8:00 A.M. Sept. 17. I phoned to Mr. Brooks, keeper of the light on Dungeness Spit, and he came over (2 miles) in his power boat.”

Thus, G.W. Field began his September 1918 report to the Chief of the Biological Survey in Washington, D.C., about his inspection trip to the U.S. Government wild bird reservations on the Olympic Peninsula.

He had to address several problems on this trip: 1. “Mr. Brooks, the light keeper, told me that some days hundreds of birds were found dead at the base of the tower. A few days previous to my visit (Sept. 17, 1918) a very large number, ‘perhaps 300-400 mostly small yellow birds were killed.’”

Apparently the birds were confused by the rotating light and circled the tower all night until they fell exhausted and died.

Field said that by the time he arrived, scavengers and children had cleaned up almost all the dead birds. Yet at the same time, the keeper on Ediz Hook reported no birds killed there. Field theorized it was because there were two lights on Ediz Hook, and that possibly the hook lay just outside the migratory flight path.

2. Finding a new warden.

“I learned that Lloyd Duncan, our warden, had died about a month ago. Mr. Brooks says that _____ Gelant, would be the best man for warden during the open season at Dungeness to replace the late Lloyd Duncan.

Mr. Brooks will get all the necessary facts preliminary to his appointment and will forward direct to the Bureau. He said he could secure all the data required so that the man could be on the job Oct. 1.”

According to James C. Isom’s book about the New Dungeness Lighthouse, Edward A. Brooks was head keeper from October 1902 to August 1925. In that time he obviously came to know local people very well.

3. Hunt clubs on the south side of Dungeness Bay were baiting waterfowl out of the refuge and into range of their guns by spreading 10-20 tons of food grain — wheat,

Thanks, Canada First the sewage, now the smog. A thick blanket of Canadian smoke and ash ignored all international border protocols this weekend as several fires burning in British

oats and rice — on the adjoining fields.

The hunt clubs held shooting parties for both business and political reasons. They could easily limit out in one day. Any dead birds not picked up by the hunters or their families were simply left on the ground as waste. Leftover grain eventually sprouted, causing problems for the farmers who owned the fields.

Not only did Field not like the baiting, but he believed the clubs were breaking the law.

There was a war on — World War I — and food grains were strictly rationed, along with meat and sugar. Field urged his boss in D.C. to report this to the U.S. Food Administration, headed by Herbert Hoover. Field added in his report, “It is also a favorable time for the Survey to emphasize the advantage of increasing the natural food and feeding places for wild ducks and geese, by eliminating carp from natural duck and geese ponds, and by planting suitable natural plant foods.

Thus gradually preparing the way for modification or elimination of the pernicious system of “baiting” now practiced by the majority of ducking clubs in most sections of the country.”

Field’s journey continued: “From Dungeness Reservation I went by auto to Sequim and took train 12:10 P. M. Sept. 17, for Port Angeles, (Edy Hook Reservation) and the starting point of mail stage for Mora, Washington, (Quillayute Bird Reservation).

Arrived Port Angeles, (35 miles) 1:30 P. M.” There the county game warden and chief forest ranger both informed him that no birds were on Edy Hook, which is merely “a long, narrow sand spit, with fishermen’s shacks, and drifted logs and debris.”

The U.S. Marines were using Edy Hook for target practice.

“I was unable at that time to get transportation except at considerable expense, and as there appeared no pressing necessity for a visit, I decided to push on to the Quillayute Reservation at first chance, which was the mail stage at 7:00 A.M. next morning.”

On his return he encountered the assistant Ediz Hook light keeper who had come across with mail, and who confirmed all previous information: “No shooting, except target practice by the marines. Pre-

Columbia sent a haze to the Olympic Peninsula last week.

A persistent Paradise Fire on the west side of Olympic National Park continues to burn well into the summer, but park officials said this weekend — and subsequent weather maps show — that the blame lay with Canada.

While the haze may seem relatively benign, it does create a dangerous situation: How can one tell if a new fire in one’s neighborhood has started or whether it’s just a Canadian import? Sam Phillips, fire chief with Clallam County Fire District 2 and president of the Clallam County Fire Chiefs Association, advises residents to do two things: 1) provide an exact address or GPS coordinate of their sighting of the smoke, and 2) advise the dispatchers at 9-1-1 if they can see a column of smoke or

not and if they do, whether it is getting larger and identify the color. Fires that are growing typically have dark brown or black smoke, Phillips says, and a column of smoke typically indicates the location on the ground nearby the caller’s location.

Contributor Bob Weeks spotted two visitors to the Dungeness Spit standing tall against crashing waves in April of last year.

Learn about geology of the Dungeness Spit Dave Parks, a geologist with the Washington Department of Natural Resources, will lead a “Rock Walk” to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge on July 18. The program is offered at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.

Parks will discuss the geologic history and coastal evolution of Dungeness Spit and examine the stratigraphy of the coastal bluffs west of the base of the spit. Parks also will discuss recent research on the rates of coastal bluff erosion in the Dungeness drift cell.

The “Rock Walk” will start at the Upper Overlook at the top of the trail leading down to the Dungeness Spit. Participants should wear sturdy walking shoes and weather-appropriate clothing. Parks is a licensed engineering geologist and hydrogeologist located in Port Angeles.

The “Rock Walk” is free and open to the public. For more information, visit www.dungeness100.com or call the refuge office at 457-8451 or send an e-mail to: david_falzetti@fws.gov. vious to this there had been no gunning.

No bird colonies; few, if any birds breeding, no flyway for tempting duck or wild fowl shooters; no necessity for a wardan, (sic) no birds killed at the lighthouse at night as is the case at Dungeness, 14 miles away.”

Field ends his report: “In view of these facts I did not think the visit (to the Hook) warranted the expense and I cancelled boat arrangements and arranged to go up the Elwha river with Mr. J.W. Pike to view the winter range of the Olympic elk.”

Might be a good time to consider a ban in Washington schools, considering this: The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction recently gave the public a “sneak peek” into statewide results of Smarter Balanced tests, the tests that measure student learning of the new state learning standards in English language arts and mathematics. Adopted by Washington in 2011, Smarter Balance tests are designed to “ensure all students who graduate from a Washington high school have the criticalthinking skills needed for careers and college,” OSPI officials said last week.

Students in our state who took the Smarter Balanced tests are generally scoring higher than last year’s field tests indicated they would, according to preliminary results. Looking at how many students scored a Level 3 or Level 4 (passing the test), between 53-62 percent of students in grades 3-high school scored a 3 or 4 on the Smarter Balance language Arts test (14-21 percent higher that field tests) and 46-57 percent in grades 3-8 scored a 3 or 4 on mathematics (15-18 percent

higher than field tests. One ugly spot in initial test scores was high school mathematics: just 29 percent scored a 3 or 4, a good 4 percent lower than last year’s field test.

Students throughout the state took the Smarter Balanced assessments for the first time this spring.

Also, it’s a way from keeping the robots from taking over (via our phones).

Dog days of summer …

I got an odd e-mail in my inbox recently, this one from Ann Murray. No, not the Canadian songstress of yore (she’s “Anne”). This, a PR rep from Milk-Bone … I kid you not.

“Summer is the top season for travel — but increasingly, Americans are choosing to hit the open road rather than brave airport delays … In the spirit of the great American road trip, Milk-Bone teamed up with other products in the Big Heart Pet Brands family to present the ‘Milk-Bone Doggy Road Trip Ranking’ — your guide to the top destinations to treat the whole family … including Fido.”

By cross referencing online review sites with data on dog-friendly restaurants and hotels, the folks at Milk-Bone created their list. My interest

was mildly piqued.

I found two Washington locations on the Milk-Bone Doggy Road Trip Ranking.

At No. 6, oddly enough, Pike Place Market.

Even stranger was the second entry, coming in at No. 27 with 25 Milk-Bone biscuits: Olympic National Park.

Yes. ONP. A national park.

One that doesn’t allow dogs or pets of any kind within the park is apparently one of the nation’s top-50 dog-friendly road trip destinations.

Ahem. This, folks, is what happens when the robots take over.

And if you’re not convinced …

According to the car manufacturer Volkswagen, a robot killed a contractor at one of the company’s production plants in Germany on June 29 at the plant in Baunatal, about 60 miles north of Frankfurt.

The 22-year-old was part of a team that was setting up the stationary robot when it grabbed and crushed him against a metal plate, a company spokesman said.

Seriously. The robots are taking over.

Is this the beginning of a ‘Megadrought’?

Gosh, it sure has been dry this year; I can’t remember when we last had a good rain. We must be in a drought!

Well, actually we are in the 15th year of drought that began in 2000 and this might become a Megadrought.

Just what is a “drought”? Drought typically is used to describe an abnormally dry condition where there is less rain and snow than normal.

Get It It can vary in degree Growing and term. Extended droughts lasting for by Bill Wrobel two decades or longer are termed Megadroughts.

The 15-years of drought we have experienced may be the start of the next Megadrought.

Only time will tell.

Given our long-term drought conditions, we and our plants actually have adapted to water conditions less than normal. Although the severity of drought has varied within these past years, this year appears to become one of the more severe drought years.

So here are some suggestions for what you can do to help your plants and to preserve the limited quantity of water available.

• Water early in the morning and deeply to reach the root zone; let soil at 4-6 inches deep become dry to the touch between waterings.

• Mulch (2-4 inches in depth) all your plantings; move the mulch aside when watering, then replace it.

• Add a shallow berm 2 inches deep around individual plants or along rows to help confine water to the root area.

‘Technicolor Dreamcoat’ plays the stage July 10-25

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

After sellout crowds for the dramatic “Les Miserables” last summer, organizers of Peninsula Family Theater’s summer production felt they’d go back to an upbeat staple.

Enter: “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat,” which runs for three weeks from July 10-25 at Sequim High featuring 60plus actors ages 6-60-plus.

Cast and crew love the play and said they felt “Joseph” brings an energy everyone can enjoy.

Co-director Robin Hall said even in rehearsals cast members are laughing hysterically.

“They’ve all seen it but laugh every time,” she said.

“But that’s because every rehearsal is different.”

Christy Rutherford, codirector, said the music and lyrics by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice are the only thing cemented for their production while many of the mannerisms and jokes are developed as they go along.

See GROWING, B-3

Dealing with severe drought Should severe drought conditions occur leading to a possible “Megadrought,” here are some landscaping practices to consider: • Add a hardscape feature instead of a new planting bed.

• Do not introduce new plants into the landscape.

• Thin overcrowded beds.

• Mature ornamentals and fruit and nut trees can survive on one or two deep waterings during the spring and summer.

• Plant fewer vegetables (shorter season and drought resistant varieties) or skip the edible garden for a year.

• Adjust irrigation schedule monthly to adapt to seasonal changes.

Joseph

From page B-1 “There’s a lot of personal touches everyone adds,” she said. “I love the way the characters elaborate and take liberties and build on it.”

“Joseph” is loosely based on the biblical story of Joseph being sold into slavery in Egypt by his brothers, his rise to prominence with the pharaoh and then his ability to not only save his family, but forgive them.

A Top 40 radio countdown of anything and everything ensues as each song follows a different genre ranging from the country western “One More Angel in Heaven” to disco “Go, Go, Go Joseph” to rock and roll “Song of the King.”

Hall and Rutherford, who estimate they’ve done 70-plus shows together, last did the play four years ago for the high school’s operetta and have brought the play to Sequim five times counting this run.

Rutherford said their first effort for the show almost didn’t happen with auditions set on Sept. 11, 2001.

“We debated whether or not to do them,” she said. “It was a really somber day but it became such an upper for people feeling sad and lost. It gave us and the community something to recover with together.”

The show was so popular, Peninsula Family Theater organizers brought it back again in February 2002, and Hall and Rutherford put it on stage again with the operetta in 2005 and 2011.

Amanda Bacon was an original cast member in the

2001 production and wanted to revisit her role as the narrator because she was dying to be in it again, directors said.

“My uncle gave me my first tape of it in 1994 and I wore it out,” Bacon said. “Then I got it on CD and I’ve worn out four or five of them. I love the flow of it. There will be at least one song people can relate to, but really they are all great.”

She first saw the production in 1995 and continues to love its message, too.

“I’m a religious person and I believe if God brought you to it, he’ll get you out of it,” she said.

Bacon and the directors also speak highly of title character Joseph played by Nicholas Fazio.

He first appeared in the play in 2011 playing Joseph’s youngest son Benjamin.

“It seems there are a lot of returning cast members,” Fazio said. “A lot of them were children when we did this the first time.”

But how is it in the lead?

Food Bank benefit Peninsula Family Theater organizers want to help the Sequim Food Bank. Two prize tickets will be given for each item of food contributed to the food bank at the play.

Tickets also can be purchased for $1 each. Each ticket is an entry for a prize drawing from local merchants held at each performance.

The food bank is in need of all food, especially peanut butter, tuna, beans and low-sugar cold cereal.

“It’s challenging, but exciting,” he said. “I remember having such a blast the first time.”

“Picasso at the Lapin Agile” by Steve Martin

From page B-1 rising notoriety with Einstein soon to publish “On the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies” about Special Relativity and Picasso to paint “Les Demoiselles d’Avignon.”

There the men debate what is genius and talent with a colorful cast fleshing out the discussion.

Andersen, a first time director for OTA, said she’s directing this for the second time after moving from Berkley, Calif., because she likes the humor and is able to delve deeper in characters’ mindsets. “(The play) shows when people are on the verge of changing the world and about to change how we know everything,” she said.

“But each character has their own something genius — even the fool (inventor Charles Dabernow Schmendiman played by Mike Roggenbuck) has a confidence that makes up his genius. Martin put in what is special about characters from all walks of life.”

But Picasso remains center of the journey, Andersen said.

“He’s jealous and hasn’t learned to appreciate women,” she said. “He’s insecure but knows he’s on the verge

but somewhere in this he has a realization about his creative destination.”

Many of the Olympic Peninsula’s well-known actors star in the play, including Peck-Collier, whom Andersen finds carries some of Picasso’s better traits.

“Sean as Picasso is very passionate and incredibly dedicated and consumed with the drive to improve,”

Andersen said. “He studies and works hard, which Picasso also has.”

Carignan, who plays Einstein, said his version of the genius may not capture everyone’s original perception of the icon.

“From what’s said in the play, this is not the Einstein we all know,” he said. “This Einstein is in his early 20s so his youthfulness is there.”

However, Carignan said Einstein and Picasso find themselves on a similar level of discovery.

“Einstein is a genius and there’s not a lot of them around,” he said. “It’s got to be difficult to communicate with people on a different level. One of the most exciting things for me to play is his discovery that there’s someone else out there. At least

in this play, Picasso could do things no one else could.”

One key for Picasso is the entrance of an unexpected visitor, Andersen said, played

by Danny Willis. “He’s the one who leads Picasso to his revelation,” she said.

As Picasso and Einstein are developed, Andersen said she finds other characters like Germaine (Angela PoynterLemaster) show genius but

• Leave clippings on the lawn; better yet, let your lawn go dormant; it will recover.

• Keep areas free of weeds as they compete for available moisture.

• Healthy plants are better able to withstand a drought, so monitor for insects and diseases and manage them before they take hold (consult with Master Gardeners at a Plant Clinic).

• Do not encourage plant growth; (i.e. do not fertilize or prune).

• Plant drought-tolerant new plants in the fall so they can establish a good root structure before the following spring.

• Use a water-efficient irrigation system.

• Consider using graywater (water from cooking and showers) in

Aside from some heady discussions and discoveries, Andersen said people will love it. “You’ll definitely go for a ride,” she said. “It’s fun, there’s laughter and you might be moved.”

Art show, sale set for Lavender Weekend ART JAM 2015 is on countdown for the second annual gathering of 10 creative forces sharing their work and techniques at Rock Hollow Farm.

New this year is special guest artist, Tammy Hall, driftwood artist extraordinaire. An artist for 50 years, Hall sculpts, “letting the wood inspire the piece and go where it leads rather than making it fit my ideal.”

The ART JAM 2015 Show and Sale will be held Sequim Lavender Weekend, July 17-19, in and around the barn at Rock Hollow. Silver, copper, paint, wood, pastel and found objects and a unique paper-making demonstration are just some of the mediums that continue to inspire. Heavy metal design sculptor Larry McCaffrey will be exhibiting on the green.

Catch a little music perhaps, bring a picnic or walk the “hollow” trails. Admission is free.

SEQUIM GAZETTE

Sequim helps fuel Wilder lineup Wolves look to help Wilder baseball squad win at state

by MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

A rivalry? That’s so two months ago.

A quintet of Sequim High baseball players are helping their prep baseball brethren from Port Angeles and across the North Olympic Peninsula gear up for the Babe Ruth State tournament, set for July 13-15 in Ephrata.

Dusty Bates, a senior outfielder from Sequim, said he doesn’t even think about the fact he and fellow Wolves were going head-to-head for Olympic League victories back in May. In his second year with Wilder, Bates said he can see how BATES the rather sizable game schedule — about 30 games in six weeks — helps players improve.

“It’s actually really fun,” Bates said.

“Practice is more inQUAST tense so we get better.

From high school to now, I’m way better.

More reps helps.”

Bates joins fellow recent SHS grads Ian Quast and Tanner Rhodefer, along with RHODEFER Sequim senior-to-be Evan Hurn and junior-to-be James Grubb on the Wilder club, a select baseball club for 16-18 year olds on the Olympic Peninsula.

With both Bates, Rhodefer and P.A.’s Larsson Chapman injured either before or during their final homestand of the season, Wilder went 2-2 at their own 2015 Dick Brown Memorial Firecracker Tournament last week. Wilder opened the tournament with a 2-1 win in eight innings against Lakeside

Recovery on July 2, then battered KWRL Centerfield 16-5 at Civic Field on July 3. But Laces 19U of Everett edged Wilder 5-1 in a defensive battle on July 4 — Grubb took the loss despite giving up just two unearned runs in five innings — and then fell 6-2, this time to the Laces 18U squad, in the third/fourth place game on July 5.

“We were feeling good last weekend (and) I felt like we played well the first three games,” Hurn said, “but we just weren’t barreling it up (at the plate). Hopefully, we can get it together this week.”

Wilder plays a pair of games against North Kitsap’s AAA Legion in Poulsbo on July 8 before heading off to Ephrata.

“If everyone is healthy, we can do real well,” Bates said.

“A key is being patient and not taking half-swings,” Hurn said.

Sequim’s James Grubb rips a two-run single in Wilder Baseball Club’s loss to Laces U18 on July 5. Wilder went 2-2 at the Firecracker Tournament, their final homestand of the season.

Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe = bike-friendly First tribe to earn designation from national group

by MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

In May, the City of Sequim joined peninsula neighbor Port Townsend in earning honors for being a bikefriendly community.

In early June, their Blyn neighbors were aded to the list.

The Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe became the first tribe in the nation to earn the designation from the League of American Bicyclists, a nonprofit bicycling advocacy group that has designated 17 “Bicycle Friendly Communities” in Washington and dozens more across the country.

Jamestown was bestowed a bronze-level designation from the league.

Annette Nesse, chief operations officer for the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, submitted the application.

“Being recognized by a national organization for our efforts is a way to get the word out that Jamestown welcomes visitors to come and enjoy what the tribal government and its enterprises have to offer in the way of cultural, recreation, shopping and scenic experiences,” Nesse said, in an interview on the League of American Bicyclists’ website.

“As a community we celebrate the history and culture of the tribe, past and present. Cycling repre-

sents a modern self-reliant mode of travel that is affordable and has great health benefits,” Nesse said.

“Becoming more bike friendly is a way to promote independence and fitness and advocate for outdoor recreation to our tribal citizens of all ages.”

Applicants are scored on engineering (bicycle network and connectivity); education (motorist awareness and bicycling skills); encouragement (mainstreaming bicycle culture); enforcement (promoting safety and protecting bicyclists’ rights); and evaluation and planning (setting targets and having a plan).

Tribal officials say they’ve been engaged in all of these activities,

particularly so as portions of the 126-mile Olympic Discovery Trail reach completion through the tribe’s Blyn property.

(Completed ODT sections now total 69 miles with another nine miles under construction as of May 2015 and right-of-way agreements are in place for over 87 miles, according to the Peninsula Trails Coalition.)

The tribe also offers bicycle safety and maintenance classes for staff and encourages group rides to and from work.

The tribe purchased and preserved the Dungeness River Railroad Bridge, a critical first section in the trail’s development during the 1990s.

The tribe also will have a new

trail section under construction that adds nearly one mile of paved trail to the Olympic Discovery Trail and also is negotiating for property that can support another half-mile ODT section in the near future, Nesse said.

“This award has heightened our awareness of cycling as a mode of transportation to be integrated into our transportation infrastructure in general,” Nesse said. “It is a way to transition from one mode of travel to another.”

The Bicycle Friendly Community program is a way communities gauge quality of life, sustainability and transportation needs, and benchmark their progress toward improving their bicycle-friendliness. Since 2002, the program has accepted over 870 applications for designation and there are currently 357 Bicycle Friendly Communities in 50 states.

“Our regional trail system, the Olympic Discovery Trail, is seamlessly incorporated into our tribal operations and we welcome the public to enjoy the tribal trail sec-

tions,” Tribal Chair/CEO W. Ron Allen said. “As the first tribe in the nation to be awarded a League designation, we look forward to continuing a strong affiliation with the cycling community.”

Along with the award came tips on how to achieve a silver designation from the League of American Bicyclists, including: • increasing the amount of bicycle parking • working with the State Department of Transportation to make the sections of U.S. Highway 101 that pass through tribal lands safer for cyclists • working with the county to install a bicycle way-finding system with distance and destination information • offering training in bicycle skills for children and adults • expanding promotions of May as Bike Month • promoting cycling throughout the year and, • regularly conducting research on bicycle usage among the tribal community, staff and those who cycle the ODT through Blyn.

Seattle is the only Washington city to receive a gold-level designation, while Port Townsend, Bellingham, Redmond and Ellensburg have earned a silver rating. Jamestown joins Port Angeles, Sequim, Bellevue and several other cities with a bronze rating.

The league ranks Washington as the No. 1 bicycle-friendly state in

Longhouse sees P.C. celebrate 21 Native Americans graduate in June Twenty-one Native American graduates were recognized at a special celebration June 19 at the House of Learning Longhouse on the Peninsula College campus.

“It was a great honor to be part of the very first Longhouse Graduation Celebration,” graduate Judi Villella of the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe said.

The number of Native graduates at Peninsula College exceeds the national average, P.C. officials note.

The graduation rate of Native students at two-year public higher education institutions in recent years has been at 1 percent. Of this year’s 484 students approved to graduate, 21 self-identified as Native (4 percent).

Graduates from many nations were recognized at the Longhouse event, including S’Klallam, Makah, Tlingit, Maidu, Ute and Citizen Potawatomi. Before family and community members that filled the Longhouse, Native graduates shared their degree and their tribal affiliation, and many shared their transfer plans after Peninsula College. Each was presented with a woven cedar pin that was created at a workshop led by P.C. student Jennifer James.

This year’s graduates include Jessica Humphries (Jamestown S’Klallam) and

Jennifer White (Makah), who have been Peninsula College Longhouse Scholarship recipients.

Ben Charles, a spiritual leader and elder of the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe opened the event and speakers included Peninsula College president, Dr. Luke Robins; Dwayne Johnson, Makah tribal member and member of the Peninsula College Board of Trustees; and Jennifer James, Makah tribal member and current P.C. student. Members of Klallam and Makah nations shared songs of recognition and thanks. Families brought potluck items to share, including traditional foods such as pickled kelp.

“There are many reasons that make it hard to want to continue going to school,” current student Jennifer James said. “The Native dropout rate is high. We need to celebrate these graduates and that’s why we wanted to make the cedar pins.”

“This is why we built the Longhouse,” Johnson said.

He added that the graduation of so many Native students was a “remarkable achievement.”

OPA Caps Year

Gail Kite’s fifth-graders wrote letters to future Haller-fifth graders. Below are some excerpts from their letters:

of

Learning

“My favorite part of fifth grade is … ” Earlier this year I was the secondplace chess club champion. Though, I am kind of glad the first-place champion beat me. It gives me a chance to TERRY learn. Blake Terry The best thing in fifth grade for some people is coming into the classroom at the beginning of the year and seeing their future with Miss Kite. Miss Kite is a great teacher and you all will have a great year. My favorite part of the year was making all sorts of new friends.

Now, if you think CASS fifth grade is hard, it’s not. It’s not easy either. Miss Kite makes it medium. Jadon Cass Fifth grade is especially harder than fourth grade. But, it’s fun too! My teacher was Miss Kite. The art projects she found were really fun and adorable. For exa mple, we m ade Chr ist m a s c a rd s out of music sheets!

McKEOWN We had a red card, then we cut out trees from the music sheets and then we put a little bird in the tree and wrote, “Merry Christmas” in cursive. It was lovely. Madison McKeown The cool thing is you get to do a lot more things in fifth grade.

In our classroom science days, you get to do a lot of cool experiments.

Our class did an experiment to see whether we liked sweet or sour gum.

CHARTERS We also don’t have to help the first-graders around on field day. You also get a chance to do Math Olympiad. This is a competition between Washington school districts. Fifth grade is really fun. Brandon Charters

The most challenging thing about fifth grade is keeping you and your friends together for as long as possible. If you ever need help, go to Mrs. Trindle’s office. Another thing is math.

TAYLOR Math is a struggle for me sometimes, but I learned that you should never shut down or give up! Hannah Taylor One of the most challenging things “The most challenging part in fifth grade is the about fifth grade is … ” math we do here. I don’t mean to make The most challenging thing is you nervous, but being the biggest in the school. there’s geometry, You are the biggest, fractions, order of ADAMS so everybody looks operations, and of up to you. You are course, decimals. But I am sure role modeling for that you will eventually get the the other kids.

Vander Velde, Shaylnn Weis, Blake Wiker and Keith Wilwert.

For the final time this school year, the Science Department would like to showcase the following students as “Catalysts” for Term 4.

A catalyst in a science classroom consistently displays an exceptional level of participation.

They are curious and questioning. They ask those thoughtprovoking inquiries which extend understanding.

They are engrossed and engaged.

They clearly and accurately share their observations, both verbally and in writing.

They are analytical and articulate.

Catalysts are the sparks which ignite learning!

In sixth grade, teacher Isabella Morrison celebrates the accomplishments of Ryan Porter, Gavin Conway, Douglas Crabb, Sumer Deol, Truman Nestor, Irina Roybal, Trevin Oakes, Zoe Zimmerman and Catherine Najera.

Teacher Steve Koehler recognizes Taylor Coleman, Amanda Weller, Oscar Walchenbach, Chloe Morton, Jessica Asselin-Old Chief and Gwendolyn Frick.

For seventh grade, teacher Joe Landoni tips his hat to Autumn Hilliard, Navy Thomas-Brenske, Meguire Vander Velde, Angel Servin, Eva Lofstrom, Adam Awawda, Mikayla Geniesse, Keith Wilwert, Jesse Bobst and Victoria Lelle.

Teacher Phil Zarelli gives a standing ovation to Kaemon Marshall, Regan DeMetz, Jasmine Chaussee and Iain Thill.

For eighth grade, teacher Marcia Garrett salutes Derartu Francis, Mathew Fowler, Blake Wiker, JJ Brow, Madison Nute, Ashley Pritchett, Asia Sebastian, Amanda Wiggins, Hannah Collins, Damien Cundiff, Jazen Bartee, Riley Martin, Tayler Breckenridge and Ian Parker.

Finally, teacher Debra Beckett applauds Lillyan Paulson, Joey Oliver, Alyssa Lowe-Little and Josie Meyer and in her Science and Engineering Teams Class, Jakob King and Nick Gaylord.

Keep up the fantastic effort, young scientists! You are excellent role models for your peers.

Casey Lewis and Sue Brown’s classes earned a fun day at Carrie Blake Park. It was an amazing day of fun in the sun.

Every student had passing grades in all classes and had no discipline referrals.

BUFFY is a 12 year old Shih tzu recently lost her lifelong owner. She is very sweet, and if she senses that you are hurting she will come to comfort you.

She has much more life in her years, appearing to be very healthy. Buffy has plenty of energy as she enjoys running around in the grass or jumping up into the car to go for a ride. She gets along well with other dogs and is not a barker. She is the perfect companion for an older lady or couple.

The Notice co-Agents named below have elected to give Notice to creditors of the above names decedent. As of the date of the filing of a copy of this Notice with the court, the Notice co-Agents have no knowledge of any other person acting as Notice Agent or of the appointment of a personal representative of the decedent’s estate in the state of Washington.

BERT is a young Lab mix approx. 2 years old. He’s been through our training program at Clallam County Corrections Center and has exceptional manners. Bert is ball-focused and easily walks in his harness without pulling. He loves to play with toys and gets along well with other dogs. He’s afraid of cats. He would probably be happiest with a canine buddy unless he can spend the day with his human. He must have a fenced yard.

BROOK & BRODY came to us with no known history.

Although we have them as a Chihuahua mix, we really have no idea what breed they are. They look like miniature golden retrievers, however we know that there is no such breed. They have medium length hair, very soft, sweet disposition, love to play and cuddle. They are not quite house broken yet but the foster mom is working on it.
