Salmon forecast prompts beach seine fishery in Dungeness Bay

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

The number of pink salmon returning to the Dungeness River in search of spawning grounds are defying historic records and thus allowing for a unique fishery opportunity in Dungeness Bay.

The Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe received approval from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the other co-managers to conduct a beach seine fishery near the mouth of the river within Dungeness Bay midJuly through Aug. 22.

Hall, longtime operetta director, hospitalized Family seeking help with medical bills

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Robin Hall, 51, known for her work directing the Sequim High operetta and other plays, is recovering in Bremerton following bypass surgery.

Her son Danny, 23, one of seven children, said his mother went to the doctor for trouble breathing on July 31 and later learned at the hospital she was having a mild heart attack.

Tests revealed she had artery blockages leading to open heart surgery and six bypasses on Aug. 7 at Harrison Medical Center.

Danny said his mother is resting in the ICU and is expected to make a full recovery but she likely will remain in the hospital

Robin Hall, pictured last summer during rehearsal for Peninsula Family Theater’s “Les Miserables,” recently had surgery for a mild heart attack.

Her family seeks financial assistance at www. gofundme.com/RobinHall.

sist device to help relieve some of through the week.

Hall remains on a ventricle as- the pressure on her heart so she

can heal faster.

“Even though it sounds pretty terrible, (the process) is fairly typical that all of this is happening,” Danny said. “We were surprised to hear about six bypasses though.”

To help relieve some of the financial burden off of his parents, Danny started a Gofundme web page at gofundme.com/RobinHall with a goal of $6,000 to pay for medical bills and medications.

“We need to help remove the stress of what the future might hold,” he wrote.

As of Aug. 10, they raised nearly half of his goal in four days.

Jeff, her husband and a medical biller at Jamestown Family Health Clinic, is staying in Bremerton with Robin during the duration of her stay.

Throughout the year, Hall is involved in many community events and groups.

In the school year, she works

for the Sequim School District as a paraeducator and Jamestown’s Indian Education program. In the summer, she works with its summer youth culture program. She also has delivered papers for the Sequim Gazette for years.

She began acting in Sequim High School’s operetta “Oliver” in 1978 as a freshman and was elected Sequim Irrigation Festival queen in 1982.

Hall began working behind the scenes in Sequim High School’s plays in 1994 and took on directing duties in 2011 after former director Christie Rutherford retired.

She recently revitalized the group Peninsula Family Theater and offered “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” in July.

The community came together to rescue a horse on Thursday morning.

Clallam County Fire District 3 reports a horse, named J.D., wandered into Meadowbrook Creek sometime in the evening on Wednesday, Aug. 5, behind 82 Meadow Drive near Sequim-Dungeness Way. Law enforcement and rescue teams were called around 8:59 a.m. Aug. 6, to the scene.

Fire district officials report neighbors saw the horse walking in the creek behind its owner, Lynne Garvin’s home, and by morning it became fatigued struggling in the creek.

Representatives from the fire department — Becca Yucha and Larry Parker, City of Sequim Animal Control Officer Lisa Hopper and Tim Johnson with the Clallam County Roads Department supported the horse in the water and with a crane driven by John Gloor from Nash’s Organic Produce, J.D. was lifted out of the water around noon.

Erik Splawn, a veterinarian with Happy Valley Veterinary Service, treated the horse, which was eating grass moments after being hoisted out of the water. J.D. stood a few minutes later.

It was returned to its owner with minor injuries.

“This was a team effort by all agencies involved and a positive outcome to the rescue,” said Captain Chris Turner with the fire district.

The Clallam County Sheriff’s Office also helped with the incident and neighbors with the group Friends of Dungeness called in the incident.

Kayakers From page A-1

was unable to get back into the kayak and thus spent about 90 minutes in the water before a rescue swimmer was lowered down to hoist him into a helicopter.

Jenny Smith, who was visiting her parents from Renton, immediately paddled into the bay and helped her son safely paddle back to shore as soon as she and her mother returned home from town and noticed only one person inside the kayak. But, unable to locate her father, Smith dialed 9-1-1.

In response, officials with Clallam County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue coordinated efforts to locate Ross. The Washington State Emergency Management Division in Camp Murray was notified to request Coast Guard marine patrol, as well as Coast Guard Air Support in order to locate the missing kayaker. The Sheriff’s Marine Patrol likewise had been activated and was responding.

Utilizing GPS coordinates and cell phone communication from Jamestown Beach, Moores was able to provide the U.S. Coast Guard Marine boat with Ross’ last known location, but shallow waters limited search capabilities by boat. Therefore, a U.S. Coast Guard helicopter was used to

find the kayaker by about 1:15 p.m.

Upon rescue, Ross was transported to Olympic Medical Center to be treated for hypothermia. He spent the night in intensive care, but was released the following day.

Ross and his grandson were both wearing lifejackets, which are considered to be “key” factors in their being able to survive, Moores said.

Clallam County Search and Rescue personnel would like to remind everyone to be prepared for the worst when participating in outdoor activities. Outdoor enthusiasts should remember to be aware of their surroundings and take proper precautions to ensure they have a safe outdoor experience.

with the tribe carefully monitor during every set.

“This is potentially a test fishery,” Brooks said. “This will help determine whether we can do this again.”

Based on the information gathered through monitoring, and if both the number of pinks remain high and the interest is there, the fishery may continue in future years.

Unlike the price for many other types of salmon, pink salmon only range between about 20-30 cents per pound. The lower costs associated with pinks make them less appealing to most fishermen because they need to be able to catch large quantities to offset their own expense and labor.

Still, “Every fish counts” and there is a market for them, but it’s been difficult to find buyers because the market is flooded, Brooks said.

Many of the pink salmon caught are canned or integrated into pet foods, but the fishery allows for some economic gain and provides tribal citizens with another opportunity for subsistence fishing or for future crab and halibut bait.

From page A-1 “We haven’t had a fishery for pink salmon in Dungeness Bay in more than 30 years because their numbers are typically a lot lower than they are this year,” Aaron Brooks, fisheries management biologist for the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, said.

But this year is proving to be different as both tribal and state officials estimated between 1.1 and 1.3 million pinks to return to the river. Given the unprecedented 2015 forecast, Brooks worked with his co-managers with the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe and the Point No Point Treaty Council to get a pink salmon beach seine fishery under way.

“We wanted to give tribal citizens the chance to harvest some of these fish,” he said. “In the 1960s there was a large estimate, but the annual average is about 40,000.”

Large forecast Pink salmon return every odd year and because more than 400,000 fish returned in 2013 and about 29 million smolts were recorded leaving the river in 2014, the number expected to return is relatively high.

Even in 2013 with more than 400,000 pinks, it was a big jump from the 2011 run of 27,400.

Why the number of pink salmon dramatically increased in 2013 isn’t exactly known, but Brooks said, a number of factors influence how many fish return, such as river and ocean conditions. Also, some of the pinks possibly could have been strays from other watersheds.

“Who knows whether this trend

In collaboration with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, personnel with Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe’s Natural Resources Department are planning to acquire and install multiple temporary diversion dams in the Dungeness River to concentrate flow and help spawning salmon migrate upstream. Flows in the Dungeness River are 35 percent of normal.

“We’re moving quickly to support critical water supplies for communities, farmers and fish across the state who are enduring extreme hardships in this unprecedented drought,” Maia Bellon, director of the Washington Department of Ecology, said.

The funding granted by DOE is one of three drought-relief projects recently supported by the state agency and originates from $16 million allocated by the 2015 Legislature to use over the next two years to help address droughtrelated hardships.

Through the grant program, public entities such as cities, public utilities and irrigation districts can get help paying for developing alternative water supplies or deepening existing groundwater wells.

More applications for grant funding have been received and DOE officials are reviewing the applications. The agency expects to fund more drought-relief projects in the coming weeks. The entire state became eligible for drought relief funding after Gov. Jay Inslee declared a statewide drought May 15.

Impacts of irrigation heightened by drought City pilots reclaimed water project

Fostering future farmers

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

This could be the first year irrigators in the SequimDungeness Valley get cut off from the Dungeness River before the irrigation season draws to a close, Joe Holtrop, Clallam Conservation District executive director, explained to those attending an irrigation seminar hosted

by WSU Clallam County Extension.

The area’s irrigation season spans from April 15-Sept.

15, and already Ben Smith, president of the Dungeness River Agricultural Water Users Association, has asked all waters users — particularly those using irrigation ditch water — to implement conservation methods immediately.

Throughout the first week of August, the Dungeness River was flowing at about 108 cubic feet per second — flows far from normal, Holtrop said.

The “low level has triggered our first-tier drought response,” Smith said.

Because the Dungeness River historically has been and continues be a lifeline to all those living nearby, officials with Dungeness Water Users Association, comprising the seven senior irrigation districts and companies, Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe and Department of Ecology rely on an agreement established in 1998 to help manage the water resource. Based on the voluntary agreement, irrigators can’t take more than 50 percent of the river and always must leave a minimum of 62 cfs in the river.

The low river condition and the associated hardships are the result of a statewide drought declared by Gov. Jay Inslee on May 15.

However, the Olympic Peninsula was one of the first areas recognized as experiencing warm, dry conditions and labeled with drought in early March. “We’ve never experienced a drought like this,” Maia Bellon, director of Washington State Department of Ecology, said. “What started as a drought driven by low snowpack is deepening with little rain.”

The Olympic Peninsula recently experienced the driest May on record since 1895.

Reclaimed water pilot project

ness Valley have a long past embedded in irrigation for successful agriculture. The Sequim Prairie Ditch Company first began constructing the first irrigation ditch in 1895. By the following year, the community celebrated its first Irrigation Festival.

Given Sequim’s geographic location, wedged between the Olympic Mountain range and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the area only gets about 17 inches of annual rainfall and is considered the driest coastal community north of Los Angeles, Holtrop said.

“If we didn’t have an irrigation system in this valley, it wouldn’t be able to support agriculture and this would be a very different place,” he said.

Between the late 1890s and today, irrigation within the area has evolved from flood irrigation, which changed the hydrology of the valley, to sprinklers, Holtrop said.

Instead of open ditches, there’s been an ongoing effort to pipe most of the ditches for increased water efficiency and conservation.

The Clallam Conservation District is heavily involved in increasing irrigation efficiency, such as piping irrigation ditches, helping farmers convert to more water efficient irrigation systems and developing and implementing aquifer recharge projects.

Although water management techniques continue to develop, the success of agriculture still relies heavily on the Dungeness River, but with the drought and low river flows, Holtrop and his colleagues are exploring alternative ways of managing water.

Developing aquifer recharge sites aimed at capturing water from the river during the winter and higher flows are under way, as well as initial discussions with Department of Natural Resources about a possible reservoir site.

The property owned by the DNR along River Road would provide space for an 80-acre reservoir.

“It would be the biggest body of water between Lake Sutherland and Jefferson County,” Holtrop said. “I think a project of this size would need to have some federal help.”

To pursue the DNR property for use of a reservoir is likely to be expensive, estimated at about $30 million.

“It’s going to be costly, but with climate change this Water management (drought conditions) could be Sequim and the Dunge- more normal,” Holtrop said. of the water is used on city parks, soccer fields and cityowned toilets, but distribution of the reclaimed water is limited by infrastructure.

“I think it’s an excellent use of the reclaimed water,” Smith said, who co-owns Maple View Farm. “It’s always been a disappointment that a lot of that water is just going out into the strait.”

Based on the quantity of water city officials estimate to provide, Smith equates that to about 0.5 cfs on a somewhat steady basis. Knowing this, he plans to irrigate about 40 acres.

The pilot project should allow Smith to continue to irrigate a portion of the dairy’s pasture, reducing his need to buy feed from out of town and possibly reduce the amount of water being drawn from the Dungeness River — leaving more water in the river for fish.

Although there’s been interest from the farming community to use the water for irrigation, it’s been too expensive to realistically pursue, Smith said.

“My hope would be if the city doesn’t have paying customers, they’ll continue to use it for local agriculture and fish,” he said.

But, in the face of the drought and with no market for the amount of reclaimed water, city officials are more than willing to put some of the reclaimed water toward a proactive use.

“The bulk of the water doesn’t get used, so I can’t think of any better way than using it for agricultural purposes,” Garlington said.

Looking ahead, Garlington would like to monitor the pilot project and determine whether there’s a corresponding positive impact on the river. If so, city officials plan to show the evidence to the Washington Department of Ecology in hopes the agency could provide mitigation credit, which then can be used to acquire other water rights, he said.

The amount of available reclaimed water is less in the summer than winter because of the city’s seasonal demand, but Garlington also is interested in developing a wintertime use for the water.

Infiltrating the reclaimed water back into the ground and/or creating a storage system are possibilities, but “how that comes about physically, politically and regulatory is still unclear,” he said.

“We’ve been relying on the frozen water in the mountains, but there is none this year.”

Also limiting water use, the Department of Ecology implemented the Dungeness Water Rule in 2013.

“The rule closes streams, rivers and ground water to new water use without mitigation,” Amanda Cronin, project manager with the nonprofit Washington Water Trust.

The Washington Water Trust manages the Dungeness “water bank” or “water exchange,” Cronin said, and although the Dungeness water bank is the only one in western Washington, the Washington Water Trust manages water banks throughout the state.

Using 175 cfs of water that the nonprofit purchased from the Dungeness Water Users Association, they’ve issued a variety of mitigation packages to new water users

subject to the Dungeness Water Rule. The exchange has issued 76 indoor water packages, five outdoor, six extended outdoor, two stock water and one mitigation certificate to the Clallam County Public Utilities District.

“The rate it’s going with primarily small packages being chosen, we should be able to provide more than 1,000 certificates with the 175 cfs purchased,” Cronin said.

Funds earned from selling water packages are invested back into other mitigation projects within the watershed.

The increased effort to more carefully manage the area’s water resource is “not a question of annual quantity of water, but it’s a question of time,” Cronin said. “It’s an issue of peak water need, salmon retuning to the river and low river flows all colliding at the same time.”

Spurred by the drought, officials with the City of Sequim are in the midst of piloting a project utilizing some of the city’s reclaimed water for irrigation.

The approval from officials with Washington Department of Ecology, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Washington Department of Health allowed Interim City Manager Craig Ritchie to sign a contract July 28 to pursue the pilot project in collaboration with owners of Maple View Farm and Highland Irrigation District.

“This is a big deal,” Pete Tjemsland, City of Sequim utilities manager, said. “Getting three state agencies to sign off on this in one week is unheard of.”

Using Bell Creek as a means of transportation, David Garlington, City of Sequim public works director, anticipates being able to convey about 250,000 gallons of reclaimed water through the creek per day.

Typically, the city’s Water Reclamation Facility produces about 600,000 gallons of class “A” reclaimed water per day. Of that, about 400,000 gallons are being dumped into the Strait of Juan de Fuca, Garlington said. Some

The average age of a farmer in the United State is 70 years old, Clea Rome, county director for the WSU Clallam County Extension, told those attending a “Impacts of Irrigation” seminar on Aug. 6.

Thus, in a collaborative effort with local farmers the Extension office is offering an internship program within Clallam County for the first time.

“We’re trying to help foster the next generation of farmers,” Rome said. “So far it’s been really great and we’re excited to grow the program and connect with more farmers.”

The internship operates under Extension’s Cultivating Success program and to start has two interns enrolled, Joe Evans and Leah Potter-Weight — both from Michigan — and working at River Run Farm off Woodcock Road in Sequim.

“I’m loving the program,” Potter-Weight said. “It’s a great blend of hands-on work on the farm mixed with a big educational component.”

Since last fall, officials with Extension have been working with local farmers to create the curriculum for the interns.

“The drought has shaped our curriculum,” Rome said. “I think there’s nothing like being emerged in the industry to really learn what takes to be a farmer.”

In addition to working on a farm, there are many off-farm educational opportunities, such as the seminar hosted by Extension exploring the local impacts of irrigation. Interns are given the chance to connect with other interns participating with Jefferson County Extension.

“It’s all about learning how to nourish ourselves and the environment … sustainable farming is the way to do that,” Evans said.

Following the end of the internship, Evans hopes to stay in the area and “learn as much” as he can, he said.

Potter-Weight also anticipates staying near Sequim once her internship ends by continuing to work on a farm while completing prerequisites online in preparation for graduate school.

County commissioner

From page A-1 including Jim McEntire’s bid to retain his Clallam County Commissioner seat.

But the recent ballot tally didn’t bring good news for supporters of the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center Proposition No. 1.

The effort to create a Metropolitan Park District to help keep SARC open was handily defeated by a 58-42 spread after new ballot counts were released Friday, Aug. 7.

The measure is failing with 6,181 no votes to 4,437 yes votes (58.241.8 percent).

The proposition would have had the authority to levy a general annual property tax of up to 75 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation; however, it was recommended to be 12 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation and be governed by a five-member board of at large commissioners.

SARC

From page A-1 To provide the board with its options, the attorney for SARC, Craig Miller, will be attending the meeting, Pickering said.

“He’ll tell the board what we can do, such as sell or lease and so forth,” he said.

“We’ll also be discussing our financial plan for the next couple of months.”

In late April, Sequim City councilors passed a resolution suggesting SARC officials should postpone putting forth a measure to create a metropolitan park district in August and instead collaborate with the City of Sequim, Clallam County and a wide array of community organizations to develop a broader taxing district in February 2016.

However, Steve Burkett, city manager at the time, said the suggestion was “only relevant” if SARC didn’t pursue a metropolitan park district in the Primary Election or if it fails.

Having failed, the Sequim City Council on Monday, Aug. 10, discussed the formation of a joint Clallam County and Sequim metropolitan park district on the February 2016 ballot, which

In the race for Clallam County Commissioner Position 1 (eastern Clallam), Republican Jim McEntire and Democrat Mark Ozias move on to the general election.

McEntire received 48.9 percent of the vote while Ozias picked up 38.3 percent of 8,675 ballots cast.

Bryan Frazier received 12.7 percent and will not move on to the general election on Nov. 3.

School district In the race for Sequim School District Director District No. 1 race, challenger Robin Henrikson saw her tally move slightly ahead of Heather Jeffers. Henrikson earned 2,433 votes to Jeffers’ 2,353 (36.7 to 35.6 percent). Both were slated to move on to the general election even before Tuesday night’s count, as other candidates for the position — Willard Naslund, now with 15.3 percent of the primary ballots, and Rebecca Bratsman, with 12.4 percent — dropped out but saw their names placed on the ballot anyway.

In the race for Sequim School District Director At-Large Position No. 5, first-time board candidate Heather Short received 56.8 percent of 6,129 ballots cast to move on to the general election. She’ll face Will Payne, who tallied 2,025 votes, or about 24.7 percent of the ballots.

With 18.5 percent of the votes in the race, challenger Charles Meyer was eliminated.

Fire district In the race for Fire District 3 Commissioner No. 1, incumbent G. Michael Gawley and challenger Sean Ryan are headed to a general election showdown. Gawley received 44.6 percent of 8,265 ballots cast, with Ryan getting 40.1 percent. Coming in third was Alan W. Slind with 15.3 percent.

However Ritchie said their proposed plan is “only an outline of where things could go.”

Irvin’s tentative timeline shows him meeting with the school district and SARC immediately.

He’d discuss partnership opportunities between the city and the schools’ construction bond proposal for $49.3 million, and shortterm funding solutions for SARC. Irvin said the city supported a proposal for SARC to receive economic opportunity funds on April 13, which they are waiting to hear back on.

Irvin also gave a deadline of Oct. 16 to prepare capital outlay and interlocal agreements with stakeholders.

If the city doesn’t go ahead with a February proposal, he said the next time a proposal may go to voters would be November 2016.

If the city does partner to create a parks district, Councilor Ted Miller said he wants an “inclusive rather than exclusive (parks) district where SARC is the crown jewel but not the only jewel.”

“We need to be able to have a parks district that will be able to accommodate all the other parks users,” he said. “And that’s been the background of what the city

Eight trivia questions for 80th County health dept. counts the Anniversary of Social Security costs of recent measles outbreak Sequim Gazette staff

by KIRK LARSON Social Security Western Washington Public Affairs Specialist

Eighty years ago, on Aug. 14, 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law.

Here in Washington, Social Security plays a major part in supporting our communities and our economy.

More than 1.25 million people receive monthly payments. Most are retired workers but about 180,000 are disabled workers and 75,000 surviving spouses.

Here are eight trivia questions to test your knowledge of Social Security. The answer is at the bottom of each question.

1. In 1935, what budget was given to the newly created Social Security board?

A. $0 B. $50,000 C. $100,000 D. $250,000 In 1935, the newly created Social Security Board, had no budget with which to begin operations. The proposed budget for the Social Security Administration for fiscal year 2015 is $12.5 billion.

tried to use the most-used Social Security number of all time?

A. 20 B. 453 C. 1,000 D. 40,000 In 1938, a wallet-manufacturing company included a sample Social Security card in each wallet. The sample card had the actual Social Security number of the company’s vice president’s secretary.

Until the number was voided, more than 40,000 people had attempted to use that Social Security number. Twelve people still were trying to use it as late as 1977.

Social Security implemented its nationwide 800-number customer service number in October 1988. Since then, there have been more than 2.2 billion phone calls. More than 6,000 employees currently are trained to answer calls.

Clallam County Health and Human Services has issued a report of the response activities and costs associated with the 2015 measles outbreak in Clallam County. An estimated one-quarter of $1 million was spent by lead agencies on the measles response effort.

The first case of measles in Clallam County was confirmed on Feb. 3. Ultimately, five cases of measles were reported to CCHHS before the outbreak was declared over by the Washington State Department of Health on April 19.

One additional case, resulting in the death of a young woman with an underlying illness, was discovered after the outbreak was declared over.

The report highlights the costs incurred by CCHHS, Washington State Department of Health and Olympic Medical Center through May 31.

Costs identified by the primary response partners were estimated at $226,823.90. Since other partners could not report cost impacts and costs resulting from response to the measles death were not

included, the final figure is likely a gross underestimate of the costs to contain the outbreak.

According to Iva Burks, Clallam County HHS director, “The total cost to the community for the six measles cases, including one death, is impossible to capture.

“The costs do not reflect cost of lost productivity among parents due to quarantine of children, health care costs of persons infected with measles, costs of disruption of normal activities at the agencies and businesses affected, costs to providers not reported, and the cost of the tragic death of a young woman and the great loss to her family and friends.”

Measles is an infectious disease that was eliminated in 2000 from the United States. Vaccination rates

have declined since that time making it possible for this highly infectious disease to make a comeback.

Interim Clallam County Health Officer Dr. Jeanette Stehr- Green said, “This is too high of a price tag for our commuSTEHR-GREEN nity to pay. It is a wakeup call for all adults and children to get vaccinated against measles and other preventable diseases to protect not only themselves and their families, but vulnerable members of our community.”

A preliminary report was presented to the Clallam County Board of Health on July 21. The newly released report may be accessed at: https://websrv7.clallam.net/ forms/uploads/HHS_ExposureSites.pdf.

Caron Terese Burgess December 17, 1949 - August 3, 2015

God the Father suddenly called His daughter. Suffering a massive stroke, she left us on August 3 2015.

She was born December 17, 1949 in Albuquerque New Mexico to Albert A. and Beatrice S. Nucci. In the early 50’s the family moved to Southern California eventually settling in Whittier. She attended Mulberry elementary; Hillview intermediate high, graduated from California High School in 1968, and then became a cheerleader graduating from Rio Hondo College in 1970.

She is survived by her husband Paul, mother Beatrice Nucci Stites, her sister Tiya-B Nucci, and brother Allan Nucci.

She leaves two sons and their families. Her firstborn Gerad and his wife Michelle gave Caron twin grandchildren Dillon and Delaney. David with his wife Linda blessed her with two more grandsons, Tyler and Cameron. And let us not forget her beloved Chihuahua Clue.

Her skills benefited many as she labored lifelong for the dreams of others. She loved to volunteer yet her time in each endeavor was determined by the Lord, Caron’s longest community commitment was 14 years with the Sequim lavender festival serving as ambassador in her last years.

Everyone blessed with knowing Caron will acknowledge that her life cannot be summed up with facts, places and dates but appreciated that her life was lived serving others. She selflessly gave herself to friends, family and neighbors by doing every kind of task she could accomplish. She often sat down and prayed with someone worried about an unsolvable problem, listened to those in need of a friend’s ear, baked birthday (or other occasion) cakes/deserts, and made meals for those whose lives were made busy with medical or social challenges. Caron was often busy, washing dishes, babysitting, driving those with transportation needs, cooking, cleaning, organizing, and other tasks at homes or offices and never mentioned pay or reciprocal remuneration. When asked to do a favor she often replied, “of course I always have time for you.”

Caron’s memorial service will be held at the Sequim Seventh-Day Adventist Church, 30 Sanford Lane at 3:00 p.m. August 12, 2015.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The sky’s not falling We’re in danger! Secularism is here and our society is in grave danger because of it!

Does secularism beget adultery and abortion? Is divorce too easy? Do bestiality and incest rule the day? (“Society in danger,” Letters to the Editor, Sequim Gazette, Aug. 5, page A-13) Secularism is synonymous with change. It poses an unfounded fear to those who tenaciously cling to the past when women had no access to jobs, voting rights, birth control or clinics. They could not have a divorce without spousal consent and miscegenation was still a crime.

Many civil wrongs have been righted and marriage and religion still prevail in spite of or because of secularism and all the vitriol to the contrary will, thankfully, not change a thing.

Who are you calling greedy?

I was called “greedy” — as were nearly 4,000 members of SARC (Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center).

In the July 21 Peninsula Daily News “Voices,” Ken Hays, a member of the Sequim City Council, came down hard on SARC. He stated that SARC members, which includes me, are “greedy.” I have paid up to $700 a year just to take a SARC water aerobics class in order to keep walking. I am insulted by this man.

I cannot believe he represents the City of Sequim!

Councilman Hays also stated that SARC is an “exclusive fitness club.” SARC has the only pool in Sequim. SARC is so exclusive that it allows the Sequim school swim teams to practice and hold meets in this pool. SARC is so exclusive that it allows hundreds of Sequim elementary school children to use the pool to learn how to swim and be safe in water. SARC is so exclusive that the pool is used by dozens of unfortunate handicapped members to get physical therapy.

And so exclusive that dozens of elderly members, including me, use the pool to exercise our bodies in order to keep moving.

I repeat, I cannot believe this man represents the Sequim citizens!

FROM THE WEB • SARC Metropolitan Parks District proposal falling short in primary election (Aug. 4) The SARC MPD would create a completely new and powerful local government run by and for SARC members and supporters and paid for by taxpayers — the vast majority of whom are not SARC members. That is why the petitioners named this new government the SARC Metropolitan Parks District! — Kyle Kautzman It also would have preserved access to the only public pool in an area with 29,000 people. I didn’t fear that SARC MPD would do all the crazy things that the naysayers did.

— Brian Lewis “Powerful local government”? — hardly — it would have been similar to the taxing districts for the hospital, library and fire department — simply a means to funding a necessary and valuable community asset. — Gail Sumpter When only 26 percent of eligible voters vote it’s hard to know what the community really wants. — Leah Ritchie Andrews After two public votes against this, I think we all have a very clear picture. — Wick Noober One more thing Sequim’s kids don’t have.

Forgo the cheeseburger and fries and put money in a jar. Yes, the prices are too high, but those that make these decisions will listen more to a consumer or potential consumer. Members? There are people who pay a daily, yearly or monthly fee to use the pool The entire community owns SARC. It is already your pool. It’s in the place it is now because folks that own this pool don’t seem to realize they are the decision makers and have neglected their civic duty. What you don’t know can hurt you. Plus as an asset, health is an investment. At least try to go once or twice a year. Tell them what you like and wish you could have and what is keeping you from it. I was the same way. I thought I should be ashamed spending money on the pool until my body started changing for the better. I’m saving money! There is no replacement for the exercise a pool gives or the benefits on the muscles and bones. Not to mention exercise boosts a person’s mood and even more so when they see results.

And bonus, you get a hot shower without putting miles on the one at home. It’s worth it. — Rebecca Lynn Horst • First Federal: Scam calls have been received in Port Angeles that give a recording purporting to be Expedia (Aug. 4) In fact, that is what these scam artists are counting on.

Doomsday writer is right With reference to “Society in Danger” (Letters to the Editor, Sequim Gazette, Aug. 5, page A-13): The writer has hit the nail squarely on the head, our society is kowtowing to the perverse demands of a miniscule 3 percent of the population.

I would add this addendum: Under the hegemony of modern progressive liberalism our culture, once defined

by God respecting decency, has been hurled into a morass of hedonism, licentiousness, lasciviousness, sodomy and sloth. Historically societies that have descended to this level have failed miserably.

Verbatim: Ryle Lindbergh Ryle Lindbergh will be a senior this fall at Sequim High School. This summer, he got a head start on some fascinating studies.

Lindbergh was the only Washington resident accepted into the Purdue University STEP Program. The one-week camp, hosted at Purdue University facilities in West Lafayette, Ind., focused on engineering.

Here, Lindbergh tells us a bit about the experience.

“During the week that I spent living on the Purdue campus, I met over 120 amazing kids who are as interested in engineering as I am. Although the campus, professors and the STEP program were all great, I think what ended up causing me to go back is the students.

Whether we were building roller coasters from scratch or putting together robots for a competition, I always felt at home there. I was an important part of my team — we were split up into 30 groups of four — and even though the challenges themselves weren’t very difficult, it was a rush to know that we were achieving something worthwhile.

At Purdue, I had a firsthand look at the beautiful campus, everything from the red brick buildings, to the clock tower, to the massive lecture halls. I slept in the dorms, I ate in the dining halls. I even got to ride their mascot, the Boilermaker Train! I sat in on a few summer classes and talked one-on-one with some of the professors.

The STEP program itself was fantastic. It was put together almost entirely by undergrads, with the help of a professor. They worked tirelessly to make sure that our week there was the best that it could be and it showed.

The camp was very focused on engineering. My favorite part was when we built robots during the last two days. The process of designing, building and testing, which is normally a blast on its own, was brought to a whole new level when I worked with people

I had just met.

I started really getting into STEM studies when I joined my school’s robotics club, the Sequim High School Robotics Club, FRC Team 3826. That was my first experience in engineering and I still enjoy it just as much today. I envision myself going into Software and Applications Development (making programs) or some similar discipline.

At this point, Purdue seems like a nice fit for me, and unless something better appears, I most likely will be attending.

By the time I was leaving the campus to come back home, I already felt like I was attending Purdue. As far away as it may be, something about the knowledge-driven atmosphere felt natural. I wouldn’t trade my time there for anything.”

Clean up your plate Most of you are too young to remember the importance of the words, “Clean up your plate.” You don’t hear it very much today but maybe we should.

Food is important to us. It provides us with the nutrients we need and it also is a great source of satisfaction.

It also is something to learn about in order to get the best from what we eat.

Keeping a good balance in feeding your children is important. But pitfalls are all around. You know some of them: Limit the sweets, eat more fruit and vegetables, avoid drinking unhealthy soft drinks, have salads, be careful with alcohol, don’t overdo beef, etc. Some we do and others we just ignore.

One area is new or is at least one we have a tendency to ignore. This is the amount of food we throw away. We throw it away at home, in restaurants, in school cafeterias and homemade lunches and even in grocery stores.

The amazing statistic is that Americans throw away almost half of their food.

They do this even when people in our country and throughout the world go

hungry and the ones who aren’t going hungry frequently are overweight.

In addition, the size of portion in restaurants has exploded in recent years.

First we had extra large, then super-sized, now we megasize. Some fast-food chains are mending their ways, but too many people still see huge restaurant portions as the standard serving size and try to replicate that at home.

Maybe we should consider splitting more meals and ordering less.

Take a close look at what you do in your home. Does your son eat all the cereal he puts into his bowl? Does your daughter finish her sandwich or do you see part of it in the trash can? Do you take more potatoes than you can finish but throw them away along

with the last portion that no one ate?

See which foods are left on your child’s plate but look at your own plate, too. Can you cut back in some way?

Don’t do it drastically but do pay attention to what is thrown out.

You can not only learn to not waste food, you also save money. If we waste half our food, think how much money we can save by buying less.

It also is interesting that many places help people lose weight by emphasizing using smaller plates for their dinners. If you take smaller amounts of food, you usually eat smaller amounts. There go the pounds.

Try making a change today. Buy less, throw away less, eat less. Maybe with a little attention you can ask your child to “clean your plate” at each meal.

Sequim Gazette

New verbiage in the Sequim Municipal Code provide s t he Cit y of Sequim’s Fire Marshal Ann Hall more legal backing if she were to ban fireworks during the Fourth of July in a time of extreme fire danger.

Sequim City Councilors unanimously approved a HALL change to the code Monday that allows banning fireworks “During periods of very high or extreme fire danger, as determined by the City fire marshal or the City Manager … This decision should be based upon consultation with representatives of Fire District 3 and the Clallam County Fire Marshal.”

“It does not ban fireworks period,” Interim City Manager Craig Ritchie said.

“It bans them in times it’s pretty dangerous to use them.”

Hall already held the ability to ban fireworks this year, but she said after collaborating with city staff and other fire officials, they felt the city didn’t have a specific definition in the code to say why they would ban fireworks legally.

Earlier this year, the city and other local municipalities banned outdoor burning and open fires but not fireworks outrightly.

Hall said she would have banned fireworks during the Fourth of July if this update were in place due to the high fire danger.

Ben A nANDREWS drews, f ire chief for Clallam County District 3, said he was glad to see the update.

“This mean it’s no longer arbitrary,” Andrews said.

“There’s a standard to use.

The standard we use typically for recreational and other types of burn bans is the fire rating through the national parks and DNR (Department of Natural Resources).”

Ritchie said the updated code doesn’t require city staff meet with other agencies, but merely suggests the city should and guards the city from a defense if an agency is unavailable to meet for consultation and a legal matter rises from fireworks usage.

Speed increase

The speed limit on East Brownfield Road along U.S. Highway 101 between Sequim Avenue and Simdars Road will increase from 30 mph to 35 mph.

City councilors unanimously approved the resolution Monday following Public Works Director David Garlington’s recommendation.

He said residents’ input led city staff to conduct an engineering study on the stretch from April 27-May 21.

“Eighty-five-percent of people were going 42 mph or less,” he said.

Garlington said going up to 40 mph made a logical case but the street was designed by the Department of Transportation at 35 mph and that going up to 40 mph would increase liability for the city.

The traffic study also showed two minor, noninjury car wrecks in past five years due to faulty equipment and not speeding, he said.

Councilor Ted Miller said he’s disappointed the city isn’t going up to 40 mph.

“Now there’s going to be constant pressure to raise it from 35 mph to 40 mph,” he said. “At least it’s a step in the right direction.”

Sequim Noon Rotary’s classic fish feed wowed them again.

The civic club’s 47th annual Salmon Bake & BBQ on Aug. 9 at the Sequim Boys & Girls Club saw more than 700 meals and helped the club meet its fundraising goal, event chair Vicky Blakesley said.

“This is our biggest fundraiser for this year and (helps us be) able to continue to sponsor all Rotarians tend to a fresh batch of salmon at Sequim Noon Rotary’s the local programs that 47th annual Salmon Bake & BBQ on Aug. 9 at the Sequim Boys & Girls Club. we do,” she said.

Blakesley had high praise for all the event helpers and sponsors, particularly for the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, for the wine and beer garden (new to the event this year) and providing outdoor tents for shade, and for QFC allowing event organizers set up a ticket pre-sale desk for an entire week prior to the Aug. 9 bake.

Attempted child kidnapping remains under investigation Sequim Gazette staff

Sequim Police continue to investigate an alleged child abduction near Margaret Kirner Park on Aug. 3.

Social media posts from the 10-year-old Sequim boy’s mother say that a man wearing a black mask driving a van possibly with purple rims attempted to take the boy at knife point.

Police Chief Bill Dickinson said conflicting reports from neighbors and witnesses “continue to deepen the confusion for us.”

Dickinson said police received a 9-1-1 call around 7:50 p.m. Monday night from a neighbor who saw the child crying.

Dickinson said while there’s no solid evidence of the event occurring he’s convinced something happened to cause the child to be upset.

“I don’t think we have a scary man wearing a mask running around trying to abduct children,” he said. “If we did, I’d be the first one on top of the rooftops shouting it out.”

Dickinson said they’ll continue to treat the event as if it happened though.

Deputy Chief Sheri Crain said on Tuesday they are pursuing every lead and hunting down every investigative possibility such as

An unidentified man in a van allegedly attempted to kidnap a 10-year-old Sequim boy on Aug. 3 next to Margaret Kirner Park.

Sequim Police officials said they continue to investigate every lead. Sequim Gazette photo

looking for cameras that may identify the driver.

“If people still have information that is pertinent, we want to know about it,” she said.

Crain declined to comment on the situational details of the investigation.

Orcas’ links duos, softball star prep for state competition S ta Sequim Gazette staff

It didn’t take long for this pair to hit their stride.

Sequim golfers Amanda L. Forbes and Scott Aughtry set their sights on another gold as they prepare for the Special Olympics’ Summer Sports Classic, held in Everett from Aug. 14-16.

The duo earned a spot at state after earning gold at a regional tournament in Tacoma recently.

There they’ll be joined by fellow Sequim athletes Michael Rief and dad Tom, who also earned gold at a regional golf tourney, along with softball player Alix Rosenbalm.

In his first year participating in any sport, Rosenbalm, 9, won a gold medal at the regional softball tournament in the individual skills event where he competed in throwing, catching, batting and

When the U.S. Navy took over Dungeness Spit

by JOHN MAXWELL For the Sequim Gazette

Editor’s note: This is the eighth in a monthly series about the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, past and present. — MD One of the pitfalls of writing history is the temptation to turn to fiction when the facts are thin, as is the case with the story of the U.S. Navy on Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge. I will resist the temptation and just give the few facts I have found, plus some questions.

Since Dungeness Spit presented a major hazard for sailing vessels, you can be sure it came to the attention of the U.S. Navy early on. In 1853, the U.S. Coast Survey published a chart of “New Dungeness Harbor.”

The survey party was under the command of Lt. Comdg.

J. Alden, U.S.N. A narrative report was published by the superintendent of the U.S. Coast Survey after construction of the lighthouse:

Remnants of the U.S. Navy’s presence at the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, on Graveyard Spit. Submitted photo

“A southeast wind drawing out of the strait blows directly into this harbor, but the bottom will hold any vessel with good ground tackle.

The only difficulty will be to get the anchors out of the mud after riding a couple of days to a gale.

“This point is so low that vessels bound in or out, before the erection of the light-house, were upon it before they were aware of their danger. Several had run ashore on the outside beach, and in 1855, while we were anchored close in, with the weather thick and hazy, a vessel from Admiralty Inlet had been set out of her course by the currents, and came driving in with studding-sails out, and only saw her mistake and danger when the black hull of our vessel attracted her attention.”

When President Woodrow Wilson signed the executive order establishing the wild bird reservation in 1915, he

stipulated that it should not in any manner interfere with the use of the lands for military or lighthouse purposes.

It is obvious from looking at a navigational chart for the Strait of Juan de Fuca that Dungeness Spit might have had strategic importance in those early days. Still, the light station and wild birds seem to have ruled the roost until 1924.

On Nov. 20 of that year President Calvin Coolidge issued an executive order placing certain tracts of the spit under Navy control “for Naval Radio Compass Stations, and when no longer needed by said Department the lands are to be returned to the control of the Interior Department … “ Then on March 21, 1939, President Franklin D. Roosevelt set aside Dungeness Spit “for naval aviation purposes.” He followed this on Aug. 16, 1940, with an order placing Dungeness Spit under complete con-

James Isom’s book shows the tower on a map of the light station in 1944. It also is visible in an aerial photo he includes from 1950. Why not use the lighthouse tower?

The light would destroy the watchers’ night vision.

He also notes, “In 1942, a Direction Finding (D/F) Calibration Station, complete with antenna system, was built using typical wartime construction and was located just north of the (keeper’s) dwelling.” He doesn’t mention any buildings on Graveyard Spit.

Beyond that, all I have are questions. What about security? I have been told that people still clammed, crabbed and fished on the spit during this period, without being warned off. The local newspapers are silent but that may be due to wartime censorship.

Dungeness Spit was far from the action of World War II and the Cold War. Maybe no one thought the Navy’s time there important enough to keep track.

Is there anyone in the community who still remembers that wartime era on the spit? Did any local person serve on the spit? I would love to sit down and listen to anyone who remembers.

Frankly, such eyewitness knowledge may be all we will ever have and none of us is getting any younger.

trol of the U.S. Navy. This reserved a 147-acre tract on Dungeness Spit for use by the Navy until 1955, when President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed an executive order returning the spit to the Department of the Interior.

What happened between 1939 and 1955? The available records are spotty to nonexistent. All I have found are a few anecdotal comments collected by Harriet Fish in her pamphlet about the light station and the thorough history of the light station by James C. Isom. While Isom seems to have dug out a bit more information about the naval period, he did not footnote his sources. I have been told by one Navy veteran that records for many World War II installations in the Puget Sound area were destroyed after the war.

What was it like to serve on the spit in that time? My guess is it was really boring.

It is so tempting to resort to fiction!

You still can find some flooring and foundations on Graveyard Spit that may or may not date back to the Navy period. Since Graveyard Spit is now closed to the public to protect sensitive habitat, you cannot go out there to view them.

Sequim Relay for Life takes a ‘civic’ walk Sequim Gazette staff

Live music, games and plenty of walks around the block highlighted the 10th annual Sequim Relay for Life on Aug. 8, at the Sequim Civic Center.

Teams stayed on the new course from Cedar Street to Washington Street between Sequim Avenue and Second Avenue through the 12-hour event.

Carla Madison, event chairman, said 14 teams raised more than $16,000 to support locals afflicted with cancer and their loved ones’ lodging, transportation and more during treatment.

Madison said they are looking to increase their donation total with 10 percent of each purchase at the Sequim IHOP, 1360 W. Washington St., from 4-9 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 19, benefiting Relay for Life.

Her intent as chairman for the 2016 event is to raise at least $20,000 and host similar restaurant fundraisers every three months.

For more information about volunteering and/or donating, call Madison at 360-490-3163.

Next year’s event remains a 12hour event on the second Saturday in August with a location to be determined.

Cancer survivors like Nancy Hofmann, of Sequim, walk a victory lap during the Sequim Relay for Life on Aug. 8, with caregivers and loved ones like Melinda Hofmann, Nancy’s daughter. Nancy said she attended her first benefit walk in 1993 in Alaska after she was first diagnosed in 1990. “It made it not so bad when I saw a 4-year old girl with leukemia walking. She was upbeat,” Nancy said. Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

Celebrating a centennial of Sequim grads Registration remains open for Aug. 14-16 All-Class Reunion

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

It’s time for Sequim to celebrate graduation again.

A little over 100 years ago, Sequim High sent off its first four graduates Leonard Fernie, Helen Knoph, Goodwin O’Brien and Neva Peterson. Since then the high school has hosted at least 8,500 Sequimites who donned caps and gowns for graduation night.

Organizers of the Sequim AllClass Reunion want to celebrate the centennial of the first graduating class by bringing together as many Sequim grads as possible for Aug. 14-16.

Kevin Kennedy, Class of 1975 and reunion chairman, said

sign-ups still are happening on Saturday morning from 9 a.m.noon at Sequim High School.

Hazel Lowe, Class of 1959 and registration coordinator, said they have about 450 people signed up so far with more expected on Saturday.

Planned for the weekend are a two-man scramble at The Cedars at Dungeness beginning at 1 p.m. Friday, Aug. 14. Fees apply. Later that night, a free get-together begins at 7 p.m. in the Sequim VFW. The following morning, lunch is served at 11:30 a.m. at the Sequim High School cafeteria followed by a car show outside and an assembly in the high school auditorium featuring stories and a walk-through Sequim High School’s history.

Fees apply.

In the evening, a buffet dinner by 7 Cedars Casino begins at 6 p.m. at the Sequim Boys & Girls Club with a social hour at 5 p.m. however the RSVP is full.

On Sunday morning, the Sequim Museum & Arts Center hosts tours of the Dungeness Schoolhouse from 9-11 a.m. followed by the free alumni picnic at the Sequim Prairie Grange.

Kennedy recommends preregistering by contacting him at 253-229-1673 or geoduck01@ hotmail.com.

Sequim springboard All-Class Reunions were set for every four years, Kennedy said, but this time they were set five years ahead to coincide with the centennial of the first class graduating.

Clallam rock show ready to roll Sequim Gazette staff

The Clallam County Gem & Mineral Association hosts its summer open house from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 22, at the club’s shop, 81 Hooker Road,

Unit 5, in Carlsborg.

Bring rocks to identify, learn how to cut rocks and polish stones for use in jewelry or for display, as club members will be on hand to show the shop and its facilities as well as answer questions.

Ongoing demonstrations include rock cutting and polishing, wire wrapping polished stones, creating chain mail jewelry and faceting stones. See the facilities for metal smithing, casting and other lapidary activities.

The club is a nonprofit association organized for educational activity in the science of geology as it relates to the discovery of rock, mineral and fossils, the art of lapidary to enhance rocks’ natural beauty and to the promo-

tion of rocks and “rock hounding” through information and special programs.

For more information, visit the club’s website at sequimrocks.com or call president Scott Thornhill at 912-1520.

Grads

From page B-1 and a member of the reunion committee, said many Sequim graduating classes host mini-reunions this weekend to coincide with the All-Class Reunion.

“About everybody who has a ‘5-year’ reunion like 1960, 1965, etc. is getting together,” she said.

Kennedy said his class celebrates its 40th anniversary and that the All-Class Reunion makes “it’s a lot easier” to get everyone together.

Lillquist said her graduating class had 65 people and that she’s hosting their reunion in her home for about 20 people.

“I loved school,” she said. “I was social. My grades weren’t great but I loved the people.”

The All-Class Reunion is an opportunity, she says, to “see a lot of people you rode the bus with and you went to church with. You get to see everyone’s brothers and sisters.”

Bob Clark, Class of 1947 and president of the Sequim Alumni Association, said only 16 members of his graduating class of 51 are still alive and as of last week he and another woman are the only ones to attend the reunion. “(T he reu n i o n) i s a chance you’ll never have again in your l i f e ,” C l a r k said. “Someday you’ll realize you should have come.”

M a ny p e o ple are coming from great distances like Kevin Kennedy California and Arizona.

“You get to see people you’ve known forever,” Clark said.

“And you see people you haven’t seen for several years. Last All-School Reunion I saw a schoolmate, not in my class, but I hadn’t seen him for 20-25 years.”

While Clark was in school, he said the town was so small you didn’t dare do anything bad because “it’d beat you home.”

But his time in high school was actually pushed ahead.

“I was really too young in high school,” he said. “I was 16 when I graduated and I started when I was 5 when I should have Sequim stories started when I was 6.”

Clark said his mother was on the DungeOrganizers say the reunion is centered around opportunities to swap stories and ness Schoolhouse School Board and said

he was ready for school. In the sixth grade, he took it simultaneously with seventh grade because he was the only sixthgrader. Clark said he spent his mornings learning sixth grade and his afternoons seventh grade.

“In high school I wasn’t big enough to get involved in sports,” Clark said. “In the three months between my junior and senior year I grew 11 inches. My classmates didn’t even recognize me. Suddenly, I was up to their height.”

Kennedy said one of his fondest memories was an old tradition.

“There used to be a tradition that on Sunday night you’d go sleep on the school’s roof,” Kennedy said. “You graduated on Monday night in those days. I remember waking up with the school bell ringing and I was the only one still there. There were all these people down there going to classes.

“I climbed down and there was the school principal shaking his head. ‘Late again,’ he said.”

Port Angeles Fire Chief Ken Dubuc will teach home gardeners how to make their landscapes more fire resistant from noon-1 p.m.

Thursday, Aug. 13, in the count y commissioners meeting room of the Clalla m Count y Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

This presentation is a part of the Green DUBUC Thumb Garden Tips brown bag series sponsored by the WSU Clallam County Master Gardeners.

Dubuc will explain how home owners can plant and maintain vegetation to help increase fire resistance.

Dubuc said, “The current drought and weather conditions in the county are unprecedented.

“The fire danger also is unprecedented and folks really need to be aware of the things that they can do to help mitigate the risk of wildfire spread.

“A huge part of that is directly related to how people maintain their property.”

Dubuc started his fire service career in 1978 as a wildland firefighter with the U.S. Forest Service.

He became a resident firefighter while attending the University of California at Davis. He continued his fire service career as a captain at the Skywalker Ranch Fire Department in northern California.

He then accepted a position with the Vancouver Fire Department. He left Vancouver to become the assistant chief/fire marshal in Port Angeles, where he has been for the past 15 years.

He was appointed Port Angeles fire chief in May 2013.

The Green Thumb Garden Tips lecture series, held on the second and fourth Thursday of each month, provides home gardeners with education on gardening topics relevant to planting and maintaining sustainable gardens and landscapes in Clallam County.

Attendees may bring a lunch. The presentations are free and open to the public.

However, donations to help offset copying costs for handouts are accepted. For more information, call 417-2279.

Beuke rows to seventh-place world finish Weather, illness affect outcome at international competition

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Two years in and Elise Beuke, 18, now ranks among the best rowers under 18 in the world.

She took seventh with double scull partner Isabella Strickler (Grosse Pointe, Mich.) at the World Rowing Junior Championship in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, last weekend.

They went 7:22.99 in the B Finals on Aug. 8, significantly improving on their preliminary heat (7:31.31) and repechage (7:41.40) times.

In the semi-finals on Aug. 7, Beuke and Strickler finished in fourth place (7:31.60), behind Germany (7:21.13), Italy (7:24.09), and Hungary (7:27.18).

Germany’s Annemieke Schanze and Frieda Haemmerling won

the A Finals on Aug. 8 with a time of 7:32.580.

For the B Finals, Beuke and Strickler outpaced runner-up Russia by just under six seconds in the heat.

Beuke’s Team USA teammates did quite well, too.

Two incoming rowers to the University of Washington and Beuke’s teammates in the fall, Marlee Blue and Katy Gillingham, both from Holy Names Academy, were part of the U.S. fours team to win a gold medal at the championships. As a whole, the U.S. team earned five med-

als, which is the most ever by the U.S. The U.S. team along with other racers ran into some adversity though.

Wind conditions pushed the event, expected to run through Aug. 9, up one day, said John Halberg, president of the Olympic Peninsula Rowing Association, so Beuke and Strickler did their preliminary race on Thursday morning and their repechage in the afternoon.

Elise’s dad, Todd Beuke, said

To protect fish during ongoing severe drought conditions, Olympic National Park officials have triggered an emergency closure of recreational fishing on most rivers and streams within Olympic National Park.

Conditions have made Pacific salmon, steelhead and bull trout exceptionally vulnerable because of low stream flows and high water temperatures, park officials said.

The following river systems within Olympic National Park closed to all recreational fishing on Aug. 10: Bogachiel, South Fork Calawah, Sol Duc, North Fork Sol Duc, Dickey, Queets, Salmon, Quinault and North Fork Skokomish Rivers (including East and North Forks) and their tributaries and Cedar, Goodman, Kalaloch and Mosquito Creeks in the Pacific Coastal area.

The Elwha, Hoh and South Fork Hoh Rivers already are closed within the park to protect salmon populations.

The mouth and coastal section of the Quillayute River within Olympic National Park remains open for recreational fishing, as do Lake Crescent, Lake Ozette and the park’s many high country lakes.

This year’s severe drought conditions have reduced river flows to historic low levels.

Low river and stream levels not only reduce the amount of water and space available for fish, park officials said, but also lead to elevated water temperatures that can weaken or even kill Pacific salmon.

Pacific salmon and trout show signs of physiological stress at water temperatures above 60 degrees Fahrenheit, with lethal effects beginning at 70 degrees. Daily high temperatures in excess of 60 degrees already have been observed in many peninsula rivers and occasionally have reached 70 degrees in the lower Sol Duc and Dungeness rivers.

Low water and high water temperatures can slow or even stop upstream salmon migrations.

The broad application of this closure is necessary to address angling pressure during these extreme drought conditions to better protect Pacific salmon, steelhead trout and federally threatened bull trout in the park’s rivers and creeks, park officials said last week.

Olympic National Park sport fishing regulations for 2015-2016 are available on the park’s website at www. nps.gov/olym/planyourvisit/fishing.htm, as well as at park visitor centers, fee booths, ranger stations and area fishing stores.

The ‘Big Hurt’ is back in September Relay race includes mountain bike, road bike, kayak and running legs Sequim Gazette staff

After a decade away, the Big Hurt is back.

The multi-sport relay race — or for the truly adventurous, a singleperson challenge in the so-called “Iron Division” — returns to Port Angeles on Saturday, Sept. 26.

Peninsula residents Scott Tucker, Tim Tucker and Lorrie Mittmann, along with title sponsor Family Medicine of Port Angeles, are putting on the event 11 years after the Big Hurt had its last hurrah.

The race consists of four race

legs: a 16.5-mile mountain bike leg, three-mile kayak leg, 30-mile road bike leg and finishing with a 10-kilometer run.

This year’s Big Hurt is limited to 50 relay teams and 50 individuals.

The race starts at 10 a.m. with a mountain bike course that’s a combination of dirt logging road, single-track trail and paved road. It begins about a mile from the Little River Road gate. The course is a hilly, rolling one for about six miles before connecting with the Little

River Road, Black Diamond Road, Pine Street and Valley Street as it meanders back to a transition area at Hollywood Beach. Event organizers recommend at least some off-road riding experience for this leg.

The kayak leg is a threemile, out-and-back course heading northeast away from the Port Angeles City Pier and parallel to the harbor shoreline. After about 1.5 miles competitors reach a pair of buoys, round them and head back to the transition area.

Safety equipment is required on all kayaks (see bighurtpa. com/events/leg-2-kayak/ for detailed instructions).

The 30-mile road bike race takes participants from the city pier west past the Elwha River to Freshwater Bay, then south onto Dan Kelly Road and back through the west end of Port Angeles to the transition area. It features a cumulative elevation gain of 2,100 feet. Helmets are mandatory.

The culmination of the Big Hurt is the 10k, an outand-back along a flat, mostly paved portion of the Olympic Discovery Trail that follows

the Port Angeles Harbor shoreline.

The race finishes in downtown Port Angeles next to the Red Lion Hotel and Hollywood Beach, with live music and a beer garden at the Red Lion stage.

In 1997, City of Port Angeles officials asked the North Olympic Peninsula Visitor and Convention Bureau to put together an event that would bring people to the area. Kristi Agren and Rick Hert from the visitor bureau thought it a great idea, and after a brainstorming Port Angeles Parks & Recreation Department officials, the Big Hurt was born.

The “Hurt” grew to be a local favorite, growing 65 participants in its first year to nearly 600 participants in 2004, its most recent.

The Associated Press reported on Monday, Aug. 10, that 13 Team USA junior rowers and four staff became ill with gastrointestinal issues possibly from pollution in the Rodrigo de Freitas Lake where they all competed. The lake has come under scrutiny recently for its pollution as it will host the 2016 rowing

Todd Beuke said Elise missed the opening ceremonies because she wanted to rest.

However, as the competition progressed, Beuke and Strickler recorded faster times, which Todd said might be attributed to the weather, Elise feeling better and because she promised him she’d go faster on his birthday on Saturday.

The event was televised locally so any opportunity to watch Elise compete came in front of a computer screen on Brazilian time, four hours

Phil Milliman, 64, also of Sequim, placed first in the pole vault (11-0) and third in the high jump (4-5).

ahead, with coverage beginning at 5 a.m.

Todd said despite his family not being able to go, the event was streamed online with GPS tracking in each boat showing an icon on a map with live commentary.

What made the experience even more special, he said, was seeing Elise in a USA uniform in online photos.

“I knew I would be proud of that but didn’t know it’d be that big of an emotional high,” he said.

Halberg said this experience for Elise, who started rowing with the Olympic Peninsula Rowing Association between her sophomore and

junior years, is significant.

“What an experience for Elise to be in the world competition with 18 countries’ best athletes,” he said.

“It’s also not only her success but also (Rodrigo Rodrigues’) success (her coach on the local team who also co-coached the U.S. World team).

His success shows our rowers that what Elise did is something we can achieve here.”

Rodrigues, a Brazilian native, will remain in Rio de Janeiro through Aug. 18 and Elise returned on Aug. 11. She’ll compete with the UW Rowing Team in the fall while attending school.

Stand Up Paddling on the Olympic Peninsula

From page B-1 First things first Before we hit the water, Shanon goes through the basics and they start with safety first.

That Shanon says, starts with footwear. Since our beautiful Washington beaches are prettier to look at than to walk upon, I’m doing sandals today.

Second is the personal floatation device, or the PFD. My guide says the U.S. Coast Guard needs the PFD to be at least on the board but he has his students/guide-takers wear them at all times. I’m in the safetyfirst boat on that one.

Third is the leash. Surfers are familiar with the velcro strap that goes around the ankle so that, in case one falls from the board it doesn’t wind up floating to Canada.

Shanon keeps his whistle and card on him, along with a pack that has a first aid kit, tow rope and marine radio inside — just in case anything goes wrong.

“Haven’t had that happen yet; hopefully it never will,” he says.

Like a pilot who trains for the worst …

Then, we cover a key part of staying dry: getting up on the board.

Start on your knees, Shanon says, with the paddle across the board.

Then either step your way up with the paddle in the water or yogastyle-walk up to a standing position.

All stability comes from the paddle, he says, much like a walking stick.

And if that doesn’t work and you find yourself in the drink, he says, stay calm, grab the board, reach over it and kick your legs. That moves you up onto the board.

“People think they have bad balance,” Shanon says, but he notes Shanon Dell of Given to Glide Paddle Sports checks his stand up paddle board before heading out for a lesson it may be just a lack of confidence. on Sequim Bay.

“When in doubt,” Shanon tells me, “paddle.”

Leaving the rat race During a break, Shanon tells me a bit more about his business. Turns out we have some things in common. Shanon left a career in media with, most recently, NBCnews.com, to come to the peninsula. A few years back, a friend encouraged him to do a stand up paddle lesson and it just stuck.

“That’s when things changed,” Shanon says.

Shanon’s a media tech for Peninsula College’s Port Hadlock campus for part of the year along with his SUP business.

Now he’s in his second year of tours and lessons here on Sequim Bay. He paddles a bit near the Dungeness Spit and Port Williams but sticks around here so he can know his “office” better.

With the wind a mere breeze, we work on speed. Trying to make my desk-jockey abs do at least some of the work, I try quick, over-the-head strokes that really get the board moving. Sweet!

We finish the lesson with pivot turns. Shanon shows me how to (carefully) step back on the board and bring one foot to a side, which pushes the front of the board slightly up and out of the water.

While this compromises balance a tad, turns become much more pronounced. Along with the foot placement, I practice sweeping the paddle across the board and finishing with a half-circle on the other side, which produces a significantly sharper turn.

“I usually save this for the end of the lesson,” Shanon notes.

Good call, as three or four times I nearly end up tipping over.

In the end, it was a dry, enjoyable day out on Sequim Bay, with a new sport to consider and a new perspective from my view atop a stand up paddle board.

Campers enjoy South American studies, trip to the Hoh Rainforest vorite song and they dance, do a conga line and get the energy flowing. The young campers immersed themselves in South American countries and cultures this week.

They explored Brazil and its tradition of mask wearing and made their own masks for a craft project as well as decorated clothespins like the many South Americans that hang dry their own clothes.

They prepared and gobbled up some of the local favorites including Brazilian Brigadeiros, as with any chocolatey sweet they were gobbled up in minutes.

Brain Gain Club members spent a week working on Stride Academy and playing academic games.

Stride Academy is a webbased program run in our computer lab. This awardwinning tool was used at the end of the school year to conduct a math and reading literacy assessment of participants. In the fall we will measure members again and see how the progress of members that used the program over the summer compares to their peers that didn’t attend the club.

Members worked at their own pace during the designated computer lab time using this educational software to reinforce learning by rewarding success with entertainment and connecting members to their peers as they compete in an exciting

Junior Rangers The Hoh Rainforest receives 12 to 14 feet of rain a year. We were glad our visit was dry. The long drive had to be overcome to visit this gem of the Pacific Northwest.

When the young rangers arrived, a small heard of elk crossed their path igniting their passion to get started.

They explored the Hoh River

bank, learning the value of rivers on the ecosystem and how they carve the topography around them.

As they walked the trail, the kids saw many fallen trees, nurse logs, providing seedlings to the forest bed.

As the journey meandered through the forest, the junior rangers were sent in oneminute intervals on a reflection walk where they found though provoking note cards

What a week

We spent the week battling a hornets nest outside of the club. We rerouted members from their usual path to the playground as we were very bothered by the pests. Luckily, the school district helped us eradicate the nest and make the path safer for our members.

He celprofessionals turn up their fa- ebrated a birthday and some along the trail. They pondered about what they’d like others to think about them, how they would survive in the wild and what do they notice about the ecosystem.

A small reception took place to honor the organization’s Jeremiah Milbank donors.

Board members and staff enjoyed a wonderful visit with community members so passionate about our local youth.

Our teens spent Thursday at Lake Crescent, which continues to be the highlight of their week. This time, several members of the Port Angeles Teen Club joined them. They bonded during the Lavender Festival production and will be joining up for a future paint-balling trip.

Our youngest members even got out of the club this week. The Kinder Kids visited Sequim Animal Hospital with a back-of-house tour. They were excited to hear how the wonderful folks there care for their family pets.

Sequim victorious at first annual Super Cup Event bridges communities with soccer

Sequim players rejoice following their 1-0 victory against Port Angeles at the first annual Super Cup.

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Relying on their lone goal, soccer players representing Sequim were triumphant following the first annual Super Cup. The Sunday match at Peninsula College’s Wally Sigmar Field was the beginning of a tradition where some of the best players from Sequim compete against those from Port Angeles, but all in the spirit of community camaraderie.

“It was a great display of soccer, but it was really all about the two communities coming together,” Quincy Byrne said.

Byrne, director of Sequim’s adult recreational league, worked closely with Port Angeles’s league director Tim Tucker and a handful of citizens deeply rooted within the soccer communities of both Sequim and Port Angeles to turn the idea of a Super Cup into a reality.

“This is something we’ve wanted to do for a long time,” Byrne said.

Although bringing an annual match like Super Cup to fruition was a long time coming, the effort was spurred by an overall growing interest in soccer within the area.

In the past eight years Tucker has watched the adult recreational soccer leagues in the neighboring cities build and develop into 14 teams.

“The interest and involvement has really grown,” he said.

Reflecting on the ongoing development of the local soccer community, Tucker notes both Dave Brasher and Tom Harris as being two people that consistently have fostered the growing interest.

“We really wouldn’t be where we are today without them,” he said.

Together Harris and Brasher presented the competing teams

their rightful awards on Sunday, including the Super Cup trophy — a silver plate honoring Virgilio Pontes, a longtime pillar within the area’s soccer community and past professional soccer play from Portugal who died last August.

Enforcing the underlying goal of the Super Cup and the legacy of Pontes, “Building bridges on the Peninsula with soccer,” is engraved on the shinning plate.

“When I got here, I had no idea they had made the plate,” Laraine Gau, Pontes’s widow, said. “It was really unexpected … I am just blown away.”

Gau donated a scarf owned by Pontes from the Portuguese premier soccer team he played for and a soccer ball signed by local children Pontes had coached in years past.

Craig Owen was another gone, but not forgotten figure within the local soccer community honored during the Super Cup. “Anything that had to do with soccer, he was there,” Tucker said.

After a moment of silence to remember and respect Owen, the audience, which filled the stands, leaving only space along the sidelines for latecomers, turned up the volume as they cheered for the two teams.

Tucker said. “It was a good show of high level soccer and it was a great turnout.”

All proceeds from the suggested $5 donation for entry went to United Way of Clallam County. Looking to the future however, every year the winning team will choose the charity to be given the proceeds from the Super Cup. Additionally, nearly $2,000 was donated by local businesses to help sponsor the inaugural event. These funds helped to buy jerseys, pay for use of the field and referees.

With the first Super Cup behind them, Tucker and Byrne have future visions for the annual event, such as getting the high schools more involved and perhaps other surrounding cities, like Port Townsend, for example.

“There are plenty of soccer players on the peninsula, so I’d like to see other cities be included,” Byrne said.

Following the Super Cup, Port Angeles City Councilor Cherie Port Angeles High School alumnus Anthony Brandon traps the ball with Kidd lost a bet with Sequim Mayor Sequim High School alumnus Ron Welches quickly coming in from behind Candace Pratt and will thus wear to try to gain procession. a Sequim jersey while taking Pratt to lunch.
