Sequim residents won’t have to venture too far to purchase recreational and medical marijuana.

After two six-month extensions to the moratorium on the sale of legalized recreational and medical marijuana enacted by the Sequim City Council more

than a year ago, council members voted 6-1 to allow the moratorium to expire Sunday, Aug. 9.

The decision was cemented with the approved motion recommended by city staff to adopt Ordinance 2015-012 relating to the recreational and medical use of marijuana and make necessary technical changes to the Sequim Municipal Code to comply with new state laws.

Public invited to memorial for ‘Classy Bob Massey’

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Hundreds of city residents have inked their signatures in support of a grassroots effort to improve the safety of the Happy Valley Road and U.S. Highway 101 intersection.

The intersection, just east of Sequim, but within the city limits, has long been identified as risky.

“Because of poor sight distance and highway speeds, this is the most dangerous intersection in the city,” David Garlington, City of Sequim public works director, wrote in a letter sent mid-June to the Washington State Department of Transportation region administrator.

“I think we should honor the commitment that we made when we started down this road with the moratorium,” councilor Ken Hays said prior to the vote.

“All the conditions have been met and I think it’s only fair to allow what the majority of voters have approved in the state and City of Sequim to be allowed to progress and to let Mr. Halpern open his business that he’s been patiently waiting to happen.”

Despite frequent downpours throughout the weekend, dogs of all shapes and colors could be seen at the 19th annual Hurricane Ridge Kennel Club All-Breed Dog Shows July 25-26. Above, just before entering the show ring, Tom Lewellen readies his gentle giant, a Great Dane named Teulu’s Pride of Kovu. All dogs showcased, from the largest to the smallest breeds, looked their finest at the show where judges took note of their conformation and obedience. Ribbons were awarded to those that best represented a variety of groups, such as the sporting, hound, working, terrier, toy, non-sporting, herding and best in show. The club’s summer agility trials begin Friday, Aug. 7-9 at the soccer fields, 601 N. Sequim Ave. For more information, visit www.hrkc.org/index.htm.

review the advocates’ proposal. Four members voted against the parking proposal at parks manager Joe Irvin’s suggestion.

Irvin told the Gazette that the gravel for parking doesn’t meet low impact development specifications required.

He said that in negotiations in May 2014 with the advocacy group they told them gravel wouldn’t work either and that grass pavers were the appropriate technique.

However, the bricks cost three times more, which ex-

out into the street.

“You can’t have parking on North Rhodefer Road unless you get the Corps of Engineers to rescind their ridiculous wetland ruling and let us use the west side of that for parking,” Angiuli said. “Even with that, you’re going to need a lot more than that with the amount of people using it.”

Funding returned Shreffler said Phase II of the project is done for now and they’ve returned $164,000 back the Albert Haller Foundation.

“Bottom line, there’s $164,000 that we raised the city is walking away from,” he told the Gazette.

Proposals for widening the playfield’s entrance, relocating the Olympic Discovery Trail along Rhodefer Road to a safer alignment, posting warning signs, creating an emergency vehicle turnaround and paying for a topographic survey of extending the parking were denied by the city, Shreffler said, despite the advocates offering to pay for the projects.

“You would think the city would bend over backwards to expedite the process,” Smith told city councilors.

He said the parking project is tying up a large amount of grant money, that could go to other worthy causes.

“Without a reasonable solution, the foundation will have to take a much more critical look at funding re-

quests within the city in the future,” Smith said.

On Tuesday, he added that everyone is tired of the project delays.

“If something doesn’t happen in the next couple of months, then that’ll be the end of it I guess,” Smith said.

Shreffler told city councilors his group would not be held accountable if a child is hit by a vehicle in the parking lot or on the Olympic Discovery Trail crossing.

At the end of their meeting, city councilors agreed that they needed to work with the advocates and foundation on parking and restrooms.

On Tuesday, Mayor Candace Pratt said, “It’s important to come to a resolution.

We love kids and soccer.”

Irvin said, “We are definitely interested in finding a solution of where better parking can go.”

“When we get into the Master Site Plan, we can achieve both purposes,” he said.

“There’s enough existing parking that can be expanded at both Carrie Blake Park and by the Interpretive Center without paving an existing green space,” he said.

“From my perspective, this is a partnership we have to keep and I’m determined to work with them to improve parking and restroom facilities.”

This weekend, Sequim Family Advocates hosts the annual Dungeness Cup July 31-Aug. 2 at the Albert Haller Playfields. For more about Sequim Family Advocates, visit www.dungenesscup.com.

“I’m very happy,” Halpern said directly following the public hearing.

“I’m every synonym for happy … this has been a long time coming.”

Last May, Halpern was awarded the opportunity to be the city’s single recreational marijuana retailer after a double-blind lottery.

For the past year Halpern has paid rent at 755 W. Washington St., Ste. C, while awaiting for city officials to lift the moratorium.

“The moratorium expires Aug. 9, so on Aug. 10, I’ll be in for my business permit,” he said. “I’m 100 percent committed to this project.”

Anticipating the city moratorium would be allowed to expire, Halpern hired a store manager, Matthew Clark, at the beginning of June, who then moved to the area from Utah.

Together Halpern and Clark plan to begin readying business. “It’s going to take a couple of months to get the space ready,” Clark said.

If all goes as planned, Clark hopes Nature’s Gifts would be open for business by about October.

“As soon as the Liquor and Cannabis Board finalizes their rules and regulations as far as a medical endorsement, we’ll apply for that and our store will become a single location for both medical and recreational marijuana,” Halpern said.

Clark predicts hiring 7-10 employees and plans to offer benefits such as paid vacation and sick leave.

“We want to create living-wage jobs,” he said.

For the past year, David Halpern has paid rent at 755 W. Washington St., Ste. C, awaiting city officials to lift a moratorium on retail marijuana sales.

Prior to the council’s decision Monday night, Halpern told the council, if allowed to open, Nature’s Gifts would grow and the ability to provide living-wage jobs would become only one financial benefit for the city.

“You’re not getting a lot of the state in excise taxes, but you’ll be getting money from the sales taxes that we generate,” Halpern told city councilors.

In late June, Gov. Jay Inslee signed a bill that became effective at the beginning of July, allowing for revenue sharing with cities and counties from the sale of marijuana. However, only local jurisdictions that allow the sale of legalized marijuana are able to receive any funds from the Legislature’s comprehensive marijuana market reform bill (HB 2136).

distribution between those cities and counties. Counties will receive 60 percent and cities 40 percent and distributions will be based on the taxable sales of the jurisdiction. After 2017 and through 2019, once the state’s General Fund has received $25 million in marijuana excise tax revenue, it’s anticipated that 30 percent (with a maximum of $20 million per year) will be distributed to cities and counties.

Along with revenue sharing, the bill instates a sales tax exemption for qualifying medical marijuana patients and restructures the marijuana excise tax and allows for local flexibility with zoning buffers.

Additionally, Senate Bill 5052, approved in April with sections going into effect July 24, not only changed the name of the former Washington State Liquor Control Board to the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board, but it establishes the

From page A-1 experience,” Lynda Perry, Sequim Community Broadcasting board president, said. “Our community radio would not be in existence without his tireless work, professionalism and devotion.”

Massey started his career with the U.S. Armed Forces Radio Network while with the U.S. Army in 1945, broadcasting entertainment to soldiers in Germany. He later moved to Palm Beach, Fla., after World War II and went on to work for a handful of stations in Southern Florida before applying to an ad in Anchorage, Alaska, in 1963.

Within six years, Massey became a Washingtonian where he worked for Yakima’s KIT Radio and later finished his career at KBRD in Tacoma.

In 1992, Massey retired in Sequim with his wife, Margaret, who died in 2006.

However, retirement didn’t last long for Massey, as he was drawn back to his persistent passion — broadcasting.

“I still remember the first day he came

into station,” Perry said. “He came in as a volunteer.”

With his years of experience, Massey helped launch KSQM Radio and his was the very first voice heard over the air waves for KSQM on

Measures and recommendations

Sequim Gazette

Bringing months of meetings, filled with lengthy deliberations to a close, members of the Charter Review Commission selected eight measures to appear on the 2015 General Election ballot.

“I think we got some good issues on the ballot,” Sue Forde, Charter Review Commission first vice chairman, said. “The next step is getting the wording down.”

To do this, officials in the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office are assisting with the final verbiage of each measure before they’re scribed onto the ballot.

“We started with 26 issues and finished them all off,” Norma Turner, Charter Review Commission chairman, said following the commission’s TURNER meeting July 20. “It was a long, late meeting, but I think we accomplished a lot.”

Unlike the 32 counties governed by general law enacted

by Washington State, in 1976 Clallam County became one of seven to operate under its own unique home rule charter allowing citizens to help shape how local government is structured.

Input from public hearings, the commissioners’ shared conclusions following their review process and more than 1,000 responses from a questionnaire sent directly to 33,700 county residents in late May, helped to identify the eight measures to be brought to the voters in November.

Noted environmentalist presents in Port Angeles Olympic Climate Action and Carbon Washington are sponsoring three local events in support of Initiative 732, for a revenue-neutral carbon tax, featuring the Initiative’s principal author, Yoram Bauman.

Bauman, Carbon Washington founder and executive committee member and I-732’s principal author, will be featured at the following presentations: Sunday, Aug. 2, 6:30-8:30 p.m.: “Climate Change — It’s No Joke: An Evening of Fun, Fossil-Fuel Fungibility and Fundraising with Yoram Bauman.” Elwha Klallam Heritage Center, 401 E. First St., Port Angeles (no charge); and Monday, Aug. 3, noon-1 p.m.: “Why a Carbon Tax Would Be Good for Our Local Community — Let Us Count the Ways,” at the Port Angeles Regional Chamber of Commerce luncheon meeting, Red Lion Hotel banquet room, 221 N.

Still to come

Among the passed measures is the “controversial” question of whether the Clallam County Department of Community Development director should return to an appointed position, Turner said. “There’s a lot of methodology, I think, in bringing this topic back to the voters,” she said.

The question of whether the DCD director should be elected was first put on the ballot in 1983 and voted down. The question reappeared and passed in 2002 and again in 2007.

“Between 1983 and 2002, the Growth Management Act was passed and people were upset with some of rules, but not much happened between 2002 and 2007,” Turner said.

However, in looking back between now and 2007, Turner notes the “$70,000 report” and investigation on the past DCD director.

“That’s why it’s back on the ballot,” she said.

Among others, the ballot measures range from amending to review the charter every five years instead of eight and the allowance of initiatives and referendums to move to the ballot process without transmission through the county commissioners to the possible addition of a new section enacting the Board of County Commissioners to hold public meetings on revisions to county operations forwarded to them by the Charter Review Commission, provide written responses to recommendations and time frame for adoption.

Throughout the review process, the Charter Review Commission made two recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners.

The first recommendation already forwarded to the commissioners was the establishment of a citizen task force centered on the county’s trust lands, which are owned by the Department of Natural Resources, Turner said. The second is the

Four issues postponed until 2016 include possible language revisions to “Section 10.40 Right to a public hearing” and “Section 7.50 Vacancies,” the creation an office of Ombudsman and whether the charter should define the duties of the administrator in a manner that provides for clear guidance regarding roles with regard to other elected officials and the budget process.

Although pushed to 2016, the Charter Review Commission voted to create a subcommittee to begin developing the Ombudsman proposal by the end of October.

Reflecting on the charter review, Turner said, “The process went well — we were a polite deliberative body.”

Turner’s only disappointment was the lack of public involvement. The public hearings, meetings and questionnaire provided good public input, but Turner admits she doesn’t see a “broad” spectrum of citizens participating in the review.

“There’s a huge need out there to help educate people about their local government,” she said.

However, Turner understands with the responsibilities and pace of daily life, it can be difficult and timely to stay attuned to all the local issues and keep track of the variety of governing agencies.

To help inform voters on the issues anticipated to appear during the General Election, Turner said the county auditor was committed to creating a voter’s pamphlet with information on the various measures.

The Charter Review Commission is holding its last regular meeting at 6:30 p.m.

Monday, Aug. 3, in Room 160 in the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St. The commission is expected to review the final language the measures and discuss the pros and cons of each.

Nov. 3 ballot measures recommended by the review commission are due to the Clallam County Auditor during the first week of August.

General Election ballots are mailed Oct. 14.

Charter Review Commission’s recommended measures for the General Election (wording subject to change): 1. Should Section 2.20 of the charter provide for election of county commissioners by district in both the Primary and General elections?

2. Should Section 11.10.10 of the charter be changed to elect the home rule charter every five years instead of the current eight?

3. Should the charter allow initiatives and referendums to move to the ballot process without transmission through the county commissioners?

4. Should the charter allow for 120 days rather than 90 to gather petition signatures for initiatives and referendums?

5. Should the Clallam County Department of Community Development director be an elected position?

6. Should the language of “Section 1.30 Interpretation” be revised to: “When interpreting the Charter and its application, the county and its officials will ensure that any interpretation, unless prohibited by law, afford the County those powers granted to charter counties by the State of Washington.” ?

7. Should the term of office for the charter commission be changed to begin Jan. 1 for a period of one year with the first meeting to be held within the first two weeks of the January?

8. Should a new section be added, titled “11.10.40 Board of County Commissioner Review of Charter Review Board recommendations”?

The section is intended to enact the Board of County Commissioners to conduct meetings, including townhall meetings, to fully vet publicly all recommendation for changes or revisions to county operations and procedures (not proposed for ballot measures) forwarded to them by the Charter Review Commission.

Big in the loan business, but with small-town service Evergreen Home Loans opens new offices in Sequim, Port Angeles

Michele Adkisson, branch manager of the new Evergreen Home Loans office in Sequim, welcomes prospective borrowers. Sequim Gazette photo by Patricia Morrison Coate

by PATRICIA MORRISON COATE Sequim Gazette

When senior mortgage loan officer Michele Adkisson left another company to join Evergreen Home Loans last fall, she knew she was going with a winner in more ways than one. In 2014 and 2015, Evergreen was rated among the top 100 companies to work for in Washington — this year the Bellevue company, founded in 1987, was No. 13 in the large company category, scoring high in “executive leadership.”

Evergreen is new to the North Olympic Peninsula, having opened its Port Angeles office in November 2014 and its spacious 2,000-square-foot Sequim office in June.

“The reason I came to Evergreen was because of its progressive loan products and that the market was starting to expand. I wanted to make sure my loan officers were going to be able to provide the loans coming available,” said Adkisson, who has 15 years in the lending industry.

“Evergreen Home Loans has an important commitment to our employees and we believe hiring good employees and treating them well is the key to maintaining a strong, effective team that will provide the best service to our customers. It’s important to have an experienced core staff who are willing to share their knowledge so that those that join us can have a fountain of knowledge to help their businesses grow.”

Evergreen has lending branches in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California and Nevada with approximately 275 employees. Adkisson manages

the Sequim branch and the Sequim/ Port Angeles team includes senior loan officer Nathan Adkisson, loan officers FaLeana Wech and Debbie Rutherford, loan officer assistant Dotty Armbright and administrative assistants Teri Casper and Leah Barnier. Adkisson noted that she’s expecting to hire at least two more employees.

Evergreen’s products include FHA, VA and USDA loans, downpayment assistance, conventional products, flexible financing for manufactured homes, refinancing, and bridge, rehab and home equity loans.

She brought Wech, former North Peninsula Building Association executive director, on board especially for her construction expertise.

“We have more flexible construction loans than banks plus a lower downpayment requirement,” Adkisson said.

“Because of the responsible expansion of loan products and the fact that families are coming out of the Great Recession with improved credit histories, lending is booming and so is real estate,” Adkisson observed. “I don’t see any indications that we’re return-

Port Angeles; 360-203-3690 ing to the irresponsible lending we saw in the early to mid-2000s because we are under heavy regulation. It makes it harder for the everyday person to get a loan but it doesn’t make it impossible. Our process and our products are great — the dream of homeownership still is a possibility.”

Adkisson explained those seeking a loan through Evergreen fill out an application which is based on their credit history, income and assets to see if they qualify for a loan.

“We ask for a barrage of documents and an underwriter reviews the documents, and if the borrower is approved, sets a list of conditions.

That’s the process in a very, very small nutshell. The lending process takes 30-45 days, depending on how busy the market is.”

She added, “Our biggest advantage is a smooth process and that we service our own loans. Borrowers can

talk directly to me with concerns or problems — it’s a much more personal style of lending.”

One of the tenets of Evergreen’s corporate philosophy is being an asset in the communities they serve and the Sequim office is no exception.

“We will offer homebuyer education classes once a month in our conference room and will be adding financial education courses free to the public,” Adkisson said. “Part of my goal being in finance is when you live in a rural community, it’s important for people to be educated in finance because you don’t want your neighbor to be taken advantage of and it helps the community as a whole. I enjoy people who enjoy this business and I enjoy helping people.”

To prospective customers, Adkisson said, “If you’re looking for an experienced, accessible and efficient lender, then look no further than Evergreen Home Loans.”

Diversity at The Home Depot is celebrated T he Home Depot in Sequim saw the need for someone to come in four hours a day, five days a week, to water their trees and shrubs.

They thought this might be a good fit for an individual with a developmental disability, so they reached out to Clallam County Health & Human Services Developmental Disabilities to encourage interested applicants to apply.

CCHHS-DD in turn notified its employment providers and Pierce Jones & Associates encouraged their client Andrea Reise to apply, which she did. After completing the application and interview process, she was offered the seasonal position.

With the support of job coaching services through Pierce Jones & Associates, Reise has been doing well with her watering tasks. Even though she rises at 5 a.m. to catch the bus from her home in Port Angeles, she doesn’t mind because she declares, “I have the best job in Sequim,” and “I love my job.”

Having Reise focus solely on watering this section of plants, located in the parking lot, frees up other associates

LETTERS To submit a letter TO THE EDITOR 147 W. Washington St., Sequim, WA 98382 Vote no on Prop. 1 I have been listening and reading the various points of view concerning the support or not for SARC. I have not really read anything that has convinced me to support this measure.

The reality is that SARC suffers from poor management. Can anyone show how good management would increase payroll 20 percent and overall expenses by nearly 50 percent while revenues and members are decreasing? Can anyone explain why management blew through nearly $1 million in reserves in the past fourplus years?

I am not the first to bring this up and I have yet to see anyone refute or explain this.

Yes, I know the individuals that are up for the board have promised that the tax rate would be no more than 12 cents per $1,000 (assessed valuation).

Do you really believe that?

Have you ever seen a taxing entity that didn’t raise taxes? All the candidates for the board probably are honest and will abide by what they say, but will those elected be board members for life?

SARC is in an old building and appears to have quite a lot of deferred maintenance. Solving their problems by giving them a blank check is not the way to resolve the situation that they have created. And approving an MPD is doing just that.

If you are not a property owner and think this does not affect you, please be aware that “every” property owner in the MPD will pay this assessment. The business owners and the landlords will pass their increased expenses onto their customers and tenants.

The people in this proposed district all need to vote. Don’t let a minority of SARC supporters dictate this measure.

Ron Inglis Sequim

SARC on relocation wish list

We are are retired couple who already have visited Sequim three times to check out the community as a possible retirement location. We are very impressed with Sequim — the small community atmosphere, the friendly and vivacious older population, the variety of restaurants and shopping, the proximity to hiking and exploring along the seashore and in the mountains, the opportunities for music and theater.

We have begun the process of finding a home.

However, we are quite concerned about the uncertain future of the wonderful SARC facility, as one of our requirements for relocation is to have swimming and water aerobics close by. This requirement is due to the need for this type of exercise, given Burke’s arthritic joints.

We are willing to support SARC by every means we can and we hope that Sequim will find a solution that will keep the facility open and vital. We see this as a huge factor in the continued vitality of the community and the security of property values of the area.

Burke Garrett and Mary Foster Ashford, Wash.

Editorial prejudice?

I find it hard to believe that you arrange your Letters to the Editor section with all the pros together and the cons last or on another page in SARC matter. Don’t you believe in fairness? I am disappointed in your usually fair approach.

Is it not possible to mix the pros and cons together? I certainly think that would a fairer approach.

I don’t believe I should have to pay property tax assessments for a place I never use.

The members should bear the burden that SARC has found itself in and to try to declare SARC a Sequim park is laughable. It is a building!

Joan Woods Sequim

Loss of SARC would be devastating After visiting Sequim over a three- to four-year period, my husband and I retired here in 1996.

A major factor in that decision was SARC due to my physical health. In 1998, I had a second spinal fusion with complications which had me walking with a cane and in pain.

Through treatment and therapy in the SARC pool I made a full recovery. I contribute a great deal of that success to SARC. Twelve years ago I became a water aerobics instructor, something I never thought I would do, and I still teach three classes a week at SARC. I have seen the benefits of SARC for seniors, children and families in our community. SARC is now in partnership with OMC, any area resident may need SARC for future rehab from a health issue.

Before you make your decision on the metropolitan district do some research and get the facts. At least one candidate running for each position has vowed to write a charter that would require a super majority of the board to raise the tax above 12 cents per $1,000 (assessed valuation) and it would then have to go to a public vote for approval. That eliminates the concern that the board could raise the tax without a vote of the people.

Information on each candidate is available at the Clallam County website under voters guide. Don’t stop there.

Contact each candidate and find out what they have in mind for the future of SARC. The closure of SARC would be a devastating loss to the community.

SEQUIM GAZETTE

Gov. Inslee still seeking ‘signature’ achievement These days Jay Inslee might be America’s most frustrated governor. And we may soon find out how much more frustration — and stomachache — he can take.

He wrote a book on the clear and present danger presented by carbon and its gaseous relative, carbon dioxide, to alter climate, and various means by which to combat those potent forces.

Yet well into his third year at the state’s helm, the Democratic governor is still without a signature policy achievement in his personal and political crusade. That’s Guest got to smart for a true believO pinion er with his green bonafides.

The winless streak is not Jerry Cornfield for lack of effort. He’s simply been foiled by members of his party as well as his GOP opponents.

This year Inslee boldly proposed a cap-andtrade auction system intended to generate billions of dollars while simultaneously forcing the state’s largest polluters to curb emissions of damaging pollutants.

But the pragmatic leader of the Democratcontrolled House and the Republican majority in the Senate stymied Inslee, providing the rookie executive an instructive reminder of the difficulty of legislating big ideas in Olympia.

Inslee also desires to see the state adopt a new rule requiring cleaner burning, low-carbon fuels. He could bypass lawmakers and order this be done by executive order but he’s thus far refrained.

Republicans hate this idea. To preemptively thwart him, they tacked a provision onto the $16 billion transportation revenue package that said if he goes forward with the low-carbon fuel standard, then over time about $700 million would be shifted out of accounts for buses, bike paths and sidewalks and instead directed toward road projects.

Inslee calls it a “poison pill” but signed the transportation bill anyway. He is now considering swallowing that pill and spent the past week gauging opinions of others in what aides describe as a “listening tour.”

David Postman, Inslee’s communications director, said the governor does not have a timetable for a decision.

“The governor is exploring whether it is possible to make progress on fighting carbon pollution and fund multi-modal projects,” he said in an e-mail. “He’s met with lawmakers, transit and bike advocates, seniors, environmentalists, business people and others.”

Those meetings began in earnest July 16 — the day after the bill signing — during a conference call with liberal Democrats including Rep. Joe Fitzgibbon, D-Seattle, and Sen. Kevin Ranker, D-Orcas Island.

That same day he spoke with Democrats involved in crafting the transportation package, including Rep. Judy Clibborn, D-Mercer Island, and Sen. Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens.

Since then, Inslee’s met or spoken with the King County executive, Seattle mayor, transit and biking advocates, environmentalists and labor leaders.

On Tuesday, Inslee met in Seattle with representatives of cities, counties and ports. He also spoke with leaders of the Association of Washington Business, and, in separate phone calls, with Republican Sens. Curtis King of Yakima and Joe Fain of Auburn.

Participants are reluctant to share details of the talks. Some say they are convinced Inslee’s made up his mind to swallow the pill. Others believe he’s thoroughly balancing the costs and benefits.

Several people, including Democratic lawmakers, reportedly told Inslee not to do it. They argued that he amassed valuable political capital by appearing to set aside his agenda when he signed the bill with the GOP provision. All that goodwill disappears if he decides to seek a new fuel standard, they said.

Backers of expanded bus service and bike ways fumed at Inslee for simply bringing up the idea. It took three years of negotiations to get a package passed and they stand to lose millions of dollars if he goes forward.

And there’s a political element, too. If Inslee proceeds, the debate on a fuel standard is injected into the 2016 legislative session — where Republicans certainly will attempt to stop him — and the elections.

It may not hurt his re-election but it might damage incumbent House Democrats in rural areas and swing districts. If a couple of them are unseated, Democrats would lose control of the House because it’s that close.

On the other hand, what’s Inslee got to lose at this point? He’s made no headway on the centerpieces of his climate change crusade. He can’t get enough Democrats to promise they’ll go to the mat on his behalf in 2016.

If he must do it alone, why not go for it and draw a bright line in the political sands — if he’s got the stomach for it?

piling on a bus to take them out to farms to see the various products available. They browsed a bit in town, ate and went home.

It is doubtful they will make the drive next year.

Whoever decided on the consolidation of all festival events made a huge mistake. The festival looks smaller, traffic is more concentrated in one area and having all events in one area does not lend itself to our visitors driving all the way through town and stopping to spend money at various places.

Instead of being a boon to all Sequim businesses, the Lavender Festival was a one-stop disappointment this year!

Rebecca Davidson Sequim

I am a believer in and a promoter of our parks and the many forms of recreation that takes place in them. Sequim has long provided parks and the citizens have stepped up over the years to develop many activities in the available space.

As a longtime Sequim resident, I have been working with the City of Sequim to develop a Park Master Plan that advocates a Metropolitan Park District providing badly needed funds for our parks. There is so much more that can be done to provide activities for our kids and active adults.

I do not believe the idea of a Metropolitan Park District was developed by the state to provide hardearned tax dollars for just one aspect of recreation.

I believe in SARC. A pool is definitely needed in Sequim. But it is not the only thing needed.

The mechanism that has been in place since SARC’s inception, a levy every six years, is meant for a single entity like SARC. I voted “yes” for the levy but I will be voting “no” for a Metropolitan Park District to fund only SARC. It is a detriment to finding funding for all of the other ways we recreate. SARC will be getting about $450,000 each year. This gets them out of the hole in the first several years but what happens with the taxpayer dollars after that? An MPD goes on forever.

We as a community need to say “no” to the proposed MPD and leave the way open to do what is right for the community as a whole.

Lavender Festival disappoints Wow! I thought the general idea was to increase attendance (and fun) at the annual Lavender Festival. Putting the entire festival in one small area made it look more like a glorified Saturday market than the Lavender Festival.

My friends who drove more than three hours on their annual trek to the Lavender Festival (they have been to almost all of them) said they were disappointed that our festival seems to be getting smaller instead of bigger.

After their long drive, they weren’t really up for

Barkhuis deserves debt of gratitude

Our elected county treasurer, Selinda Barkhuis, has steadfastly refused to transfer $1.3 million dollars of our county funds to two non-county entities without a public hearing and without a written contract. Barkhuis, an attorney, asserts that to do so would violate state law and financial policies. We, Clallam County taxpayers, owe her a debt of gratitude.

On the day (Jim) McEntire filed for re-election, he led the Board of County Commissioners into approving two resolutions “authorizing” the county auditor to issue warrants from the Opportunity Fund to pay for a $1 million grant to the Port of Port Angeles and a $285,952 grant to the City of Port Angeles.

The next day, the county administrator signed a simple budget modification redirecting $3 million from the Carlsborg sewer project to the Port of Port Angeles, City of Port Angeles and “Undesignated Projects.” E-mails reveal that it was the county commissioners’ “express wish” that the auditor’s office “create the warrant without a need for an intergovernmental agreement.”

Barkhuis responded that in her opinion, “The County Commissioners do not have the authority to ‘authorize’ and ‘wish’ away their own compliance with provisions in State law and County policy that entitle taxpayers to prior public hearings and written contracts.”

McEntire is the choice Mark Ozias is running for the District 1 County Commissioner position. He currently is the director of the Sequim Food Bank.

By all accounts, Ozias is a nice guy who is doing a great job as the food bank director. He is successful there, primarily due to a certain special skill set he brings to the position he now occupies, such as: the ability to say “yes” to everybody who comes through the door, and the wherewithal to go out and raise more money when the pantry starts to get bare. An apocalyptic, doomsday tone of voice is essential for the latter skill.

On the other hand, success at job of the county commissioner, very much like managing a profitable business, requires a much different skill set. In short, the county commissioner must be able to say “no” when faced with an array of equally shrill demanding voices.

The (Peninsula Daily News’) voters guide is out. Gayle Baker is running for SARC Metropolitan Park District Commissioner Position No. 3. When asked why she is running, she states “(I) view membership in SARC as a luxury, not a necessity.”

SARC has the only pool in Sequim. So Gayle believes the pool it is not a necessity for the Sequim school swim teams who practice and hold meets in this pool, is not a necessity for the hundreds of Sequim elementary school children that use the pool to learn how to swim and be safe in water, is not a necessity for the dozens of unfortunate handicapped who use the pool for physical therapy, and is not a necessity for the dozens of elderly who use the pool to exercise their bodies in order to keep moving.

well as those fit and robust alike, and SARC is poised on the threshold of partnering with our local hospital district to further improve access to medical and health services for all.

Contrary to the mantra of the naysayers, SARC is well run and efficient or it wouldn’t be operating at the highest level of self-sufficiency relative to the rest of the public recreation facilities in the state.

It is hard to believe that some of the citizens of Sequim would rather throw away our outstanding public recreational facility rather than put their trust in the community and themselves to pass Proposition 1 to form a new Metropolitan Park District for SARC, and to elect honorable commissioners to assume the management of the new SARC Metropolitan District.

It is said that the fear among those who would have the community throw SARC away is that it may be possible that greedy elected commissioners will immediately (or later) jump the taxation rate up to 75 cents per $1,000 (assessed valuation) without a vote of the people.

There are five candidates running for those positions who have pledged to take no salaries for themselves and to set the levy rate at 12 cents for the foreseeable future and to consult the voters regarding any major future changes.

The administrative advantages of a Metropolitan Park District are many — from being able to count on steady funding (absolutely necessary for all public recreation facilities), to being able to apply for grants, to being able to accept timber tax monies when they are available, to the advantage of not having to run levy elections every few years costing thousands of dollars that could be put to better use.

There have been 17 Metropolitan Park Districts created in the state of Washington. Only two, and those two are huge urban districts with parks and recreation facilities to support, have taxed anywhere close to the maximum allowed.

The rest are operating with local citizen control and small tax levies. There have been no reports of abuse. Port Angeles is the closest community to Sequim operating its swimming pool under a Metropolitan Park District. They are doing well. The commissioners have maintained their small levy at an even slightly lower rate than initially set.

Please vote yes on Proposition 1 to save SARC for all of us and elect responsible persons to the five commissioner positions. It makes no sense at all to throw away SARC because we might elect the wrong people some time down the road.

For example, the five candidates who want to see the Proposition 1 proposal pass and serve the community in the spirit of generosity that SARC has modeled, would be free from the weight of bureaucracy to keep the amount of taxes surprisingly low, not only due to their commitment to do so, but by initiating the following options: • Form a Friends of SARC entity for individuals and businesses that would like to make contributions to the facility • Form a foundation for estate and other private contributions In addition, SARC has been recognized as a model program, both financially and in terms of the breadth of programs for a facility of its size. As such, it is a viable candidate for state, federal and private grants.

The commission also would have the option to add additional park and recreational facilities within the SARC MPD boundaries in the future. To do so without passing Proposition 1 would be far more problematic, requiring the city to take on the task. Should this be the case, the city would not only need to have the approval of the entire Clallam County to do expansions at likely considerably greater cost to the taxpayer, but also would be required to deal with the slow bureaucratic process to get these kinds of facilities and programs to the top of the city’s long list of priorities.

In short, not only is the current SARC program a critical “jewel” of the Sequim community to be saved, it also offers the opportunity for many exciting additional facets to be created in the future.

With a SARC Metropolitan District and a commission continuing to operate in the spirit of the generosity and good heartedness SARC has demonstrated in the past, we the residents of Sequim and surrounding areas will have an increasingly valuable asset that contributes to our economy, health, safety, and well-being.

Vote Yes for Proposition 1 and keep the “jewel” of SARC, at the heart of our community alive, while enabling it an opportunity to offer us even more.

behalf of her constituents, she withheld the funds for these “grants” until the Clallam County Superior Court determined whether these funds had been “disbursed according to law.”

The commissioners decided to withdraw the disputed warrants.

Then, commissioners Peach and Chapman, in order to avoid similar issues over the lack of a public hearing, voted to hold a public hearing on a budget emergency request to fund 10 agencies as recommended by the Homelessness Task Force. Commissioner McEntire objected, stating “ …

I object to someone dictating a particular interpretation of law and policy on this board. That is our prerogative, no one else’s.”

More recently, a July 21 Peninsula Daily News article states, “Chairman Jim McEntire said in a later interview that he does not favor signing written contracts, contending they would be ‘superfluous.’

He also threatened to not approve the grants if they are subject to contracts.”

I urge Commissioner McEntire to honor both the spirit and the letter of the law that currently requires a public hearing. It is the prerogative of we, the taxpayers, to have input in these decisions.

We also are entitled to have written contracts with outside entities that are given county funds to ensure our money is spent to achieve the outcomes for which they were intended.

The county commissioner must have a thick enough skin to be able to see the vision through with specific policy and program proposals while being attacked by special interests from all sides.

Jim McEntire has repeatedly proven himself to have the skills, temperament and leadership to serve as a county commissioner, as evidenced by his sales tax cut to Clallam County taxpayers.

Senior/disabled property tax exemption raised Income limit bumped from $35K to $40K Sequim Gazette staff

Are you a senior citizen (61+) or permanently disabled on a limited income?

Legislation has just passed a bill that changed the senior/disability property tax exemption program.

Lowell Franklin Cook December 8, 1933 - July 19, 2015

Lowell Franklin Cook, an 81 year old resident of Sequim, Washington, passed away July 19, 2015 at Sherwood Assisted Living due to complications of cancer.

He was born in Chadwick, Missouri to Linza Franklin Cook and Margarette Ann (Fried) Cook on December 8, 1933.

Mr. Cook graduated from Mary M. Knight High School in Matlock, Washington in 1951.

On December 21, 1951 he married Dora Pauline Lamon in Shelton, Washington.

He retired from Tektronix in Portland, Oregon and went on to own the Stowaway Mini Storage in Port Angeles, Washington.

Mr. Cook was an avid fisherman and hunter for decades. He loved his church and family, especially spending time with his kids, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren.

He was a member of the Elks, Sequim Bible Church, Circle O Square Dance club of Port Angeles, Gideon International and Good Sam Club, traveling over 400,000 miles in the US. Mr. Cook is survived by his daughters Karen Sanders of Lincoln City, Oregon, Denise (Roy) Renner of Hillsboro, Oregon, Kathy Cook of Beaverton, Oregon, and Paula (Alan) Loghry of Port Angeles; sons Michael Cook of Port Angeles and Terrence (Karen) Cook of Forest Grove, Oregon; sisters Wynona (Kenneth) Howard of Matlock, Washington and Wanita (Cook) McCowan of Longmont, Colorado; brother Ralph (Deanna) Cook of Matlock; 15 grandchildren; 23 great-grandchildren with another coming this fall; and 3 great-greatgrandchildren.

He is preceded in death by his wife Dora Pauline Cook, sister Wanda Springer, granddaughter Pauline Sanders and parents Linza Franklin and Margarette Ann Cook.

Memorial services will be held July 31, 2015 with a viewing from 10:00-noon at Sequim Valley Chapel, 108 W. Alder St, Sequim; funeral services at 1:00 P.M. at Sequim Bible Church, 847 N. Sequim Ave, Sequim; and graveside services at 3:00 P.M. at Sequim Valley Cemetery.

Memorial contributions may be made to Sequim Bible Church, Gideon’s International P.O. Box 1695 Sequim, WA 98382 or Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County, 540 E. 8th St. Port Angeles, WA 98362.

Previously the income limit was $35,000; it has been increased to $40,000. There are three exemption levels within the program, all of which are exempt from voted-in excess levies.

Before construction of the Highway 101 bypass, the original design included im- GARLINGTON provements to the overall geometry of that segment of highway, he said, including the Happy Valley Road intersection. Although lack of funds kept WSDOT officials from addressing all elements within the design, the dangers that prompted the intersection to be included remain.

Citizen action

Wallace K. Peterson June 20, 1931 - July 24, 2015

One resident of Happy Valley Road, Shirley Rudolf, along with her husband Gary, have met with Garlington on this issue in an attempt to redirect the spotlight back to the intersection.

“Most people know how dangerous the intersection is so they try to avoid it,” Rudolf said. “During the school year, I really worry about the school buses.”

Throughout the past month, Rudolf has collected more than 200 signatures

in your 2016 taxes.

To receive an exemption for taxes due in 2016, applications are due by Dec. 31.

This change is not retroactive; the new income levels will apply to exemption reductions for 2016 property taxes and forward.

from neighbors and primarily residents of Happy Valley Road. The signatures, along with a growing number of supportive letters, are destined to accompany a letter Rudolf has drafted to send to WSDOT officials and a handful of state representatives.

Already, Rudolf has letters from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, Sequim School District and Clallam County Fire District 3.

“So far, everyone I’ve talked with has been very supportive, but this has turned into something bigger than what one person can really do,” Rudolf said.

In pursuit of other means of public outreach, Rudolf is working with members of the Sequim Rotary clubs to present information about the intersection and the danger it poses — even to those that don’t often drive on Happy Valley Road.

Last year, the annual average of daily traffic on Highway 101 at the Happy Valley Road intersection was 17,000, according to a WSDOT records request. Since 2005, that average has increased by 2,000 vehicles.

“Seeing a notable increase in highway traffic,” is one of the driving reasons Rudolf feels it’s time state and local officials turn their attention to the intersection, she explained.

Shields, ARNP, CNM — will see patients in both Sequim and Port Angeles.

Pregnant women who currently are cared for by Bush and Hennessey have the option of following these providers and transferring their care to OMP. Patients seeing the providers for specialty gynecologic needs also are invited to transfer to the OMP care team.

The contact number for gynecologic, obstetric and midwifery care is 417-7365.

“It’s only going to get worse,” she said.

Within the past 10 years, 24 accidents, ranging from vehicle strikes deer and rear endings to vehicle overturned, have occurred within a quarter-mile radius of the Happy Valley Road intersection on Highway 101, according to a WSDOT collision history report.

Low-cost possibility Despite the number of accidents and the increasing amount of traffic, “there are literally 700 worse intersections in the state than Happy Valley,” John Wynands, WSDOT’s assistant region administrator for project development, said.

Unless budgeted as a line item, Wynands explained WSDOT officials rely on a system largely based by the number of accidents to rank and fund intersection safety projects. From that perspective the “ability to say we have a project there just isn’t there,” he said.

However, Wynands said some funds are allocated toward low cost improvements.

“We’re always open to looking at opportunities to use these funds,” he said. “Projects may be removal of roadside vegetation to help with visibility, better signage or enhancing the striping in an area.”

A lso, Wyna nd s sa id, WSDOT typically doesn’t pursue grants, but it often works with local governments to help search and secure grant money.

“We may be able to work with the city and get an interim, low-cost improvement at that intersection,” he said. “We’ll have a traffic officer out there next

week and we’ll check it out.”

Knowing the expense associated with the ultimate design that eliminates the intersection and restructures Happy Valley Road to parallel the highway until it connects with Simdars Road, Garlington has proposed a cheaper alternative in his recent letter.

The temporary, but less costly fix simply moves the intersection to the west about 200 feet to allow for adequate visibility both east and west.

“This slight adjustment also puts the intersection at a point where grades are favorable for minor widening that could accommodate left and right turn pockets,” he said.

Not all aspects of the original design of the bypass project were fulfilled, but Garlington said the city was able acquire the right of way, which also helps to reduce the cost.

Given a large, low-impact, city park that abuts Happy Valley Road and continues to run along the south side of Highway 101 is planned for future development, Joe Irvin, City of Sequim parks manager and assistant to the city manager, also is interested in a different approach to Happy Valley Road.

“Finding a way to change that intersection would definitely be a vast improvement,” Irvin said.

The city has debt obligation on property until the end of next year, but in 2017 Irvin expects to begin addressing street access and parking for Keeler Park.

Wallace Kenneth Peterson passed away peacefully of cancer on July 24, 2015, at the age of 84.

He was born in Chicago, Ilinois on June 20, 1931, to Einar and Eleanor Peterson, who then purchased a small farm near Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin to escape the ravages of the Great Depression. The family survived by growing their own food and livestock.

Following the end of World War II, the family, which by then included Wally’s younger brother Roland, moved to Port Angeles where Wally’s father joined Peninsula Plywood as a carpenter, eventually becoming a shareholder.

Wally attended Roosevelt High School where he was known by his fellow students as an avid hiker and fisherman who often led groups of hikers into the Olympic Mountains.

He graduated high school in 1949, worked briefly as a mountain firefighter and then joined Peninsula Plywood.

Wally joined the United States Coast Guard in 1951 and was assigned to monitoring the loading of naval armaments in the San Francisco Bay area.

His next assignment was in Seattle working with the Department of Treasury and Customs, checking for contraband on vessels entering the harbor.

After the Korean War, Wally returned to Port Angeles and Peninsula Plywood where he continued his 40-year career.

He and Nancy Morris of Port Townsend were married in 1958 and had two children, Scott and Todd. Upon retiring, he and Nancy spent several years traveling the world.

He was preceded in death by Nancy in 2008 and Todd in 2012.

He met and married fellow avid traveler Sara Ellen Case in 2011 and they enjoyed traveling for four happy years.

Wally’s passions were his family, hiking the Olympic Mountains, fishing the rivers of the Olympic Peninsula and traveling.

He is survived by his wife Sara Ellen of Sequim; son Scott Peterson of Brockport, New York; and brother and sister-in-law Roland and Linda Peterson of Vancouver, Washington.

At his request, no memorial service is planned and any memorials should be sent to Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County, 540 E. Eighth St., Port Angeles, WA 98362, or to the American Cancer Society at www.cancer.org/involved/ donate/memorialgiving/memorial-giving.

The Clallam County Assessor’s Office has adjusted your property to the new exemption level based on the new income schedule.Any changes in income, marital, disability, or residency status requires applicants to complete a change of status form.

If you think you may qualify now with the new income threshold ($40,000), bring into the assessor’s office income information for 2014 to begin the process for a tax reduction

Eureka! Sequim author pens her first novel ‘North Coast’ shares positive tale of 2 women together, says author

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

In her first book, “North Coast” by Alice McCracken, aka Dorothy Rice Bennett, follows two women’s love story in Eureka, Calif.

When it comes to writing what’s important, author Alice McCracken says she chose love.

The retired family therapist and journalist recently released her first book, “North Coast,” a lesbian romance novel.

“Loving someone is the most important thing we can do,” she said.

So, McCracken, 73, chose to begin writing her

book in 2002 while living in San Diego.

Her main character, Valerie, a 50-something aspiring artist, is inspired by a real-life artist McCracken knew who moved on a whim from San Francisco to Eureka to buy a home. Once settled, she rents a room to a wandering soul Gina, in her early 30s.

McCracken says Valerie wonders why Gina opts to waitress instead of use her PhD and teach. Over time, the two become close and attraction grows but they have different goals. Gina wants to move to San Francisco to pursue her ambitions while Valerie likes her life in Eureka.

“Despite the attraction, the friends agree to go their separate ways,” McCracken said.

inspired her to write “North Coast.”

“My relationship with Vera validated my identity as a lesbian,” McCracken said.

“From then on, I was comfortable with myself and able to emerge as a creative person.”

McCracken was married to a man and went on to become a counselor in private practice for 10 years in Scottsdale, Ariz.

She moved to San Diego and said that’s where she realized she was a lesbian and went on to work in journalism covering the San Diego waterfront to senior citizens’ activities for different publications.

McCracken went on to retire from the U.S. Geological Survey in San Diego working as a scientific editor and production editor before retiring in 2006. She moved to McMinnville, Ore., for 18 months but found Sequim to be a better fit with Foster.

Here, she’s used her three theater degrees for the first time since college volunteering with Olympic Theatre

McCracken moved to Sequim in 2010 with Foster but five months after moving, Foster died after 17½ years with McCracken.

In San Francisco, Gina asks herself if that life is everything she wanted or if it was better with Valerie.

McCracken said her inspiration for the book came from her relationship with her partner, Vera Foster, who was several years older than her.

“I wanted to validate that,” she said.

While “North Coast” is a love story, McCracken said it’s not about sex but there are some intimate moments.

“It’s a girl-gets-girl story,” McCracken said. “What I’ve been told is that the characters feel like real people.

(Readers) liked it because it’s romantic and mature.”

To cut or not to cut: that was the question 7-year-old Violet Phillips faced when wondering what to do with her very long tresses.

With the hot weather in full swing and swimming in a chlorinated pool turning her blond hair a greenish color, she and her mother tossed around the idea of getting her hair cut for a couple of weeks before the actual event.

But there was another, more important reason than tangled, green hair that Violet and her parents had frequently talked about.

That reason: To donate her cut hair to Locks of Love, a nonprofit organization that provides hairpieces to financially disadvantaged children under the age of 21, who have suffered from long-term medical hair loss.

Quite a noble goal for a 7-year-old, who really, really liked her long hair.

Violet Phillips, “We actually started hair donor thinking about (donating) a year ago and had a plan,” Kelly Phillips, Violet’s mother, explained. Hair cut into ponytails must be between 8 and 10 inches, Kelly said, “so we started growing and measuring.”

When her hair grew enough for the 8-inch donation, Violet decided to wait until she had enough for the 10-inch donation.

“I wanted kids to have long hair just like me,” she said.

A precocious child who is quick to smile and giggle, Violet loves to swim, dance, read and play with her dog Tito. She also is inquisitive enough to look at the Locks of Love website, where she and Kelly read about the organization.

On the site, Violet noticed a photo of a child about her age with no hair. That’s when the questions began about cancer. It was a bit difficult for Violet to comprehend why the child was bald, but she did come to an understanding that her own hair would benefit a child who had lost his or her hair.

Although both Matt, Violet’s father, and Kelly wanted Violet to decide for herself whether she wanted to donate her hair, Kelly said their daughter began telling friends she was “going to donate her hair for cancer.”

Locks of Love recipients are not only those with cancer, but include children and young adults of ages 21 and younger who are suffering from long-term medical hair loss from any diagnosis, including burns, cancer or skin disorders that cause permanent hair loss.

In the beginning, Locks of Love was connected with a for-profit retailer, but in December 1997, the organization obtained its 502(c)(3) certification. The charity installed a

volunteer board of directors and began operation with its own bylaws. The organization was spearheaded by Madonna Coffman, a retired nurse who had a great deal of experience working for not-for-profits in the Palm Beach area.

Coffman knew exactly what it was like to lose one’s hair. In her 20s, she developed alopecia, an autoimmune disorder that affects the hair follicles, resulting in total hair loss.

To make matters more difficult, years later her 4-year-old daughter developed alopecia and lost all of her hair.

It was the incentive to take on Locks of Love as a full-time volunteer. The charity took off quickly and has over the years received much support throughout the country, including newspaper and magazine articles and television coverage.

In one way, it’s a tribute to her mother, she said. “(My mom) wanted to be a writer but was busy working and being a mom but she wrote letters,” McCracken said.

“Thanks to them, they gave me some good advice,” she said. “It was extremely helpful and I felt it was ready after they told me what to do.”

fashionable haircut.

The next step is to mail the ponytails to Locks of Love, where they will decide how to fashion the hair into a hairpiece. The Phillips family will never know who the recipient might be due to privacy issues. While it would be nice to know, Kelly said, they just wanted to give back.

Will Violet do it again? “I don’t know,” she shrugs, flipping her new style back with her hand. “I like long hair.”

The best part, at least in a 7-year-old’s way of thinking, was going for frozen yogurt after the haircut. Cherry, with sprinkles and gummy bears on it.

A good way to end a great day.

After learning a bit about the organization, Violet made her decision and her mom made the appointment for the big day. Sheri Lehmann, who works for Envy Hair Techniques, has been Kelly’s hairdresser for some time, so it was Lehmann who did the deed.

It takes six to 10 donated ponytails to make one hairpiece, according to Locks of Love.

Children under six years old receive synthetic hairpieces because they are still growing.

Those ages 6-21 receive hairpieces and wigs free of charge or on a sliding scale based on the financial need of the family.

The retail cost of the hairpieces is between $3,500-$6,000. Thus, Violet’s donation of eight ponytails is a big deal and will certainly help a child in need of some beautiful hair.

Did she think so? Violet said, “It felt good.”

Sequim rower set for world championships Beuke considered among the best 18 and younger

“We want to be in the A final among the top six boats racing.”

She’s also considering the opportunity to row for the varsity crew for the University of Washington this fall where she was accepted to attend on scholarship.

“I think I want to win a NCAA championship at UW,” she said.

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Sequim rower Elise Beuke, 18, has given up a lot to be among the best.

The former Sequim senior missed graduation in June to compete at the U.S. Rowing Youth National Rowing Championships in Sarasota-Bradenton, Fla. But Beuke took second.

She chose training over another love, singing in the school select choir. Instead she would row early in the mornings for an independent physical education class as a graduation requirement.

Beuke also gave up sleeping in, eating junk food and valuable time with family and friends.

But now she’s on the U.S. Junior Championship team and all training to compete Aug. 5-9 in the World Rowing Junior Championships in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

She’ll ride double sculls with Bella Strickler from Detroit, who placed third behind Beuke at nationals in single sculls.

Giving up all these things, especially graduation was hard, Beuke said.

“But at the beginning of year I told people that I promised myself I wanted to go to nationals and I wanted to work hard,” she said.

“What’s cool about rowing, every single day you work really, really hard to run a course in 8 minutes.

Even if I didn’t (do well at nationals) I wouldn’t have felt the training was wasted.”

Beuke has gotten some tastes of

From competition to collaboration

home though.

Her best friend Victoria Cummins used her phone to share their graduation night.

Beuke’s parents and two siblings visited her in Florida, too.

But since then Beuke has been training seven days a week in the Northeast mostly in New Milford, Conn., she says.

After time trials against other top-notch rowers her age, Beuke was selected to live in a house with other rowers and compete in the world championships.

Her routine has been two practices a day in the morning and afternoon with some downtime for movies, reading and art. Sometimes afternoon practices are alternated for weightlifting.

The girls plans their meals and go to bed early.

“That’s how everyone likes to roll,” Beuke said.

Novice to the top

Last summer, the Gazette profiled Beuke as a newcomer to the sport where she was quickly coming up the ranks among the Olympic Peninsula Rowing Association headquartered on Port Angeles’ Ediz Hook.

She started rowing at an OPRA camp in 2013 as a sophomore.

Her mom Mary Beth Beuke said they enrolled their three children because they wanted them to stay active but Elise is the only one who stuck with it.

“It was a natural thing for her right away,” Mary Beth said.

“I remember her coming home saying, ‘Mom, thanks for raising me as a water baby.’ It was really a good fit for her.”

Looking back to the camp, Beuke said she “honestly had no idea about the world of rowing.” But Beuke felt she could be good at it.

“I’ve always been an athlete but never felt I found my sport until now,” she said. “It’s more mental than physical and I like how it pushes you further than you ever thought you could go. You finish practice and realize you could do more. There’s always another level.”

Beuke said her coach Rodrigo Rodrigues, who also co-coaches the U.S. team, compares the mentality to a book.

“It’s like turning the page and starting over again,” she said.

“There’s another fun thing to achieve like a specific time or medal you want or a specific boat you want to be in.”

Beuke’s goals continue to change but she and Strickler are eyeing the finals at the world championships.

“We have just started rowing together so we’re still finding our rhythm,” she said.

Beuke said she is the most inexperienced among the girls readying for the World Championships, but she doesn’t notice it much.

“It definitely shows with the vocabulary,” she said. “There’s a lot of weird rowing terms that I don’t know but I just ask people, ‘What does that mean?’”

Some of the girls take a different approach from her, too, with some eating a specific way to whom they talk to before a race.

“My partner likes to talk a lot before a race but I don’t want to waste any energy before a race,” Beuke said. “I want to build up all my adrenaline before the start.”

After nationals, Beuke said she reminisced with Strickler about their first impressions of each other.

“She was talking to everyone and I was dead cold,” Beuke said.

“She thought I was quiet and nerdy. I remembered being so annoyed. Who is this chick blabbering her mouth at the national championships? We’re really opposite but it worked out really well.”

Beuke said there’s a lot of pressure on her but she recalls Rodrigues’ advice.

“I’ve done everything he’s told me, done baby steps and everything

Husky purple take to Sequim’s greens Tuiasosopo’s team takes top honors at Sonny Sixkiller Celebrity Golf Classic Sequim Gazette staff

571373474

A Rose Bowl champ, a Pac-10 champ and now a Sonny Sixkiller Celebrity Golf Classic champ … with some help from local aces.

Marques Tuiasosopo, former University of Washington quarterback star, joined forces with Ron Grant, Sid Krumpe, Michael Littman and Chad Wagner to shoot a 55 to win the fifth golf tourney hosted by Sixkiller, a fellow for- TUIASOSOPO mer UW quarterback great, at Sequim’s The Cedars at Dungeness golf course on July 24.

Tuiasosopo’s squad edged a team led by Robb Weller — former UW cheerleader often singled out as originator of “The Wave” in 1981 and the first host of “Entertainment Tonight” — by a single shot.

Weller’s team included Travis Davidson, Rick Hoover, John Raske and Dan Wilder Jr.

The tourney, presented by Wilder Auto Center, raises funds for the Olympic Medical Center Foundation.

Sixkiller annually lines up a who’s who list of more than 30 Husky legends to play in the golf tournament, including Bob Schloredt, Nesby Glasgow, Keith Gilbertson, Robin Earl and Steve Emtman.

This year’s event — which included a fundraising dinner and auction the evening before — raised about $51,000, said Bruce Skinner, executive director of the Olympic Medical Center Foundation. “(It) is by far the most we’ve ever had,” Skinner said, noting 38 Husky legends were in attendance last week, 36 of them playing the course Friday.

Skinner said his favorite part of the annual golf classic is the camaraderie the Huskies and event participants alike bring.

Is he excited? You bet. Joe Jarzynka, a fan favorite University of Washington football punt returner and 1998 “You get a lot of Huskies who first-team All-Pac-10 selection as an all-purpose player, flips his golf club after a hitting a rocket off the first

The Olympic Junior Babe Ruth 13U team, a select squad of players from Sequim and Port Angeles, went 2-2 at the Babe Ruth 13 Year Old Pacific Northwest Regional Championship last week in Meridian, Idaho. The team fell short in their bid to advance to the 13U Babe Ruth World Series in Jamestown, N.Y., next month.

Olympic earned a split of games on July 22, falling to Twin Falls (Idaho) 11-4 before topping South Coast (Southern Oregon), 3-1.

On July 23, Olympic fell to eventual regional champion Camas (Southern Washington) 12-7, then rebounded with a 12-11 win against The Dalles (Northern Oregon) on July 24.

Camas topped East Boise (Idaho) 11-6 on July 25 to advance.

Helping to ensure student success Education advocates host third Back to School Fair Sequim Gazette staff

Back to School Fair

In readying for the first day of school Tuesday, Sept. 1, officials with the Sequim School District, Parenting Matters Foundation and the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula, both partners with United Way of Clallam County, are collaborating to present the third annual “Back to School Fair.”

The fair is free and open to Sequim families with children ages birth-18 years old.

“Last year’s fair serviced approximately 400 children,” Patsene Dashiell, Sequim School District director of communications/volunteer coordinator, said. “We hope that number will double this year.”

Along with a multitude of resources and services for families preparing for the upcoming 2015-2016 school year, there will be free food, music, games, children’s books, haircuts, school supplies and backpacks for

A police vehicle and fire truck will be on hand for children to better understand public safety. Additionally, families can tour a school bus to familiarize their children while finding out about transportation and bus routes.

focus on helping families prepare, but to highlight the resources and services available to them so they can help their children be successful students,” Nicole Brewer, program director with Parenting Matters Foundation, said.

Prior to the Back to School Fair, the “Stuff the Bus” event

is taking place from 2-6 p.m., Friday, Aug. 14, in the Walmart parking lot, 1284 W. Washington St. A school bus, accompanied by a group of children from the Boys & Girls Club, will be there to collect public donations of school supplies for families in need, which will later be distributed during the fair.

Donated school supplies also may be dropped off at the district office between 8 a.m.-3 p.m., Monday-Friday.

Brain Gain During Brain Gain this week, campers learned about how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. We learned that there is more to a healthy lifestyle than just eating plenty of fruits and veggies. They learned that exercising, healthy emotions, and relaxation time are also essential factors that lead to a productive and wholesome life.

At the beginning of the week, the kids made a pie chart showing how many hours they spent a day sleeping, playing video games/ TV, physical activity, reading and simply rela xing. This chart showed the kids how much time t hey actua lly spend in front of the TV or computer screen.

In addition, we discussed how important it is to set aside a portion of the day to meditate.

In order to see if meditating had positive side effects, the kids got comfortable and meditated for one minute. In a matter of seconds, the room was silent and every eye was shut. After one minute had passed, the kids were so surprised by how beneficial it was to clear their mind. Thomas even continued to meditate for a whole hour!

Toward the end of the week, we discussed how important it is to control our emotions and how talking to someone about our emotions is a great way to prevent feelings from building up.

We concluded the week by sharing how we can turn our negative

emotions, like anger and jealousy, games and challenges.

OTA presents two jazz concerts Olympic Theatre Arts, 414 N. Sequim Ave., welcomes back-to-back jazz concerts on Aug. 1-2.

“Friends of Brubeck” appear at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, combining their energetic rhythms with the soulful tones of New York vocalist Elinore O’Connell.

The next day O’Connell returns at 2 p.m. in a more intimate matinee setting accompanied by Linda Dowdell on piano and Craig Buhler on alto sax.

Both performances include Brubeck classics like “Take Five,” along with Dowdell arrangements that yield playful Brubeckian results and the “retro-pop” interpretations that define the band’s collaboration with O’Connell (“Moondance,” “The Look of Love,” “You Go To My Head”).

“Friends of Brubeck” (above) and Elinore O’Connell present the past three summers to back-to-back jazz concerst at Olympic Theatre Arts, Aug. 1-2. sold-out audiences at the Submitted photos

“Friends of Brubeck” features Dowdell as pianist and arranger, Buhler on saxophone, Ted Enderle on bass and Terry Smith on drums.

Dowdell said she has an affinity for Dave Brubeck’s blend of classical and impro-

visational jazz elements while Buhler counts Paul Desmond, Brubeck’s long-time musical partner, as one of his major influences saying he has spent decades trying to “get inside Desmond’s head.”

Numbers are inspired by all-American stars as Rosemary Clooney, Cyd Charisse, Gene Kelly, Barbra Streisand, Tim McGraw and Emily West.

Kelly will provide 10 percent of the proceeds to “The Backpack Program,” a food assistance organization for children with low income families.

Spelling

From page B-1 to theater but other avenues like concerts and multimedia productions.”

He recruited his sister, wife Danielle (speller Marcy Park) and mom and dad, Laura and John Lorentzen to take on acting and musical roles, and cousin Luciana Barerra (speller Logainne Shwartzandgrubbnierre).

Laura, who plays Rona Lisa Peretti, bee moderator and former champion, said this is the first time she’s performed on stage since 1982.

“I’ve been a teacher for 30 years (currently in Chimacum) and I’ve directed musicals and other shows in that time,” she said. “It’s liberating. I’m reliving my glory days.”

Peretti leads the spelling bee while fending off the affections of Vice Principal Panch (Dave McInnes). “(The musical) is really hilarious and there are some funny, funny lines,” Laura said. “Some of the students have the funniest (word) definitions.”

Audience participation is a must for the show with four chosen at random to compete with the spellers.

Barerra, who plays the politically savvy Shwartzandgrubbnierre, said including the audience is one of her favorite parts which helps make the musical “really silly.”

As for her character, Barerra said she’s outspoken and wants to share her opinion but always second guesses herself under the pressure to succeed from her two dads.

Rounding out the cast are Chandler Wendeborn as speller William Barfee, Eric Hermosada as speller Chip Tolentino and Mikey Cobb Jr. as speller Leaf Coneybear.

Wendeborn said his take on serious speller Barfee, pronounced Bar-fay, is exciting because it’s his first time starring in a show.

“He’s been in the spelling bee before and he made it far but didn’t win. He holds onto that.”

Characters’ quirks and backstories are revealed throughout the show such as with Barfee spelling with his feet, Shwartzandgrubbnierre spelling into her arm and Olive Ostrovsky and her absent parents.

“Audience members will see themselves in at least one character,” said Mark Lorentzen.

“It has an incredibly smart humor with some heartfelt moments.”

Most of the actors Lorentzen recruited for his first show after working with them on shows like Peninsula Family Theaters’ “Les Miserables” last summer.

“This is the polar opposite of “Les Miserables,” he said about its humor and tone.

“Spelling Bee” features an orchestra conducted by John Lorentzen on piano, John Allman on keyboards, John Melcher on cello, John Doster on percussion and Auston Spencer on reeds.

The musical was conceived

by Rebecca Feldman from a book by Rachel Sheinkin with music and lyrics by William Finn. Jay Reiss also contributed.

For more on the show and tickets, visit www.ghostlightproductions.com.

At each tasting station, participants sample one book and one of Camaraderie’s artisanal Northwest wines. Titles range from classics to sci-fi to literary fiction. Participants learn about six books and sample six wines throughout the evening.

Registration for this event is required. To register or for additional information, visit www. nols.org and select “Events” and “Port Angeles,” or call the Port Angeles Library at 417-8500.

DUNCAN is a friendly boy, but he does have some sharing issues. He came to us because he has food and toy aggression.

He has this sharing issue with both people and other dogs. We are trying to work with him on this. As of right now, he will need to go to a home with no other pets, and definitely NO small kids. Duncan is a high energy and would do best in a home where he has LOTS of room to run!
