Festivities at the fair Whidbey Island Fair showcases Whidbey talent, is about ‘community, education and entertainment’

By MARIA MATSON

mmatson@whidbeynewsgroup.com

Known affectionately by organizers as “the biggest party around,” the Whidbey Island Fair has retained its small-town vibe despite attracting entertainment, vendors and visitors from all over the world.

Fair Manager Carol Coble said the four-day fair saw over 18,000 visitors last year.

“I have people call me from out of state to find out the fair dates,” Coble said of the event, which takes months of preparation and around 500 volunteers.

The fair has showcased Whidbey Island agriculture, 4-H talent, tasty food, carnival rides and more for over 90 years.

ENTERTAINMENT Thrill-seekers of all ages will be pleased to hear Davis Amusement Cascadia is back on the fairgrounds this year, a longtime provider of major carnival attractions such as a 100-foot tall Ferris Wheel, cage-rolling “Zipper,” roller coasters, giant slide, Sizzler, the classic carousel and games.

Many familiar faces too, such as Clucky the Chicken, garden-enthusiast Ciscoe Morris, the band Western Heroes, bubble fun with “Matt the bubble guy” and many more entertainers will delight

guests.

“There’s so much local talent on the island,” Coble said.

Elvis impersonator Danny Vernon returns as well, who fairgoers may also recognize Vernon for his musical talent in the band Wally & The Beaves or for his other longtime role as “bouncer” at the fair’s beer garden.

Vernon is excited about returning as the crooning star to the fairgrounds because he appreciates the vibe of the fair —and the old-fashioned stage fits right in with his aesthetic.

“I’ve been doing this for a long time and I still enjoy it,” he said. “It’s still amazing that the Elvis fans are still excited to see a representation of Elvis.”

Vernon’s favorite thing about portraying the legendary singer is interacting with the audiences and recreating moments of the past.

“In a nutshell, (Elvis) is completely legit and worthy of the title of the King of Rock and Roll,” Vernon said, due to the way Elvis looked, sang and the way he treated people.

Animal-lovers can take a gander over to the petting zoo, animals brought from the personal farm of 4-H leader Shanna Flower.

The petting zoo allows children and adults to interact with animals they may not otherwise meet.

FESTIVITIES, FROM Z3

Disney princesses and superheroes with When You Wish Productions were at the fair the first time last year, riding the carousel with children, smiling, taking pictures and making children’s dreams come true.

“Kids loved that. It was really received well,” Coble said of the carousel rides.

Owner of When you Wish Productions, April Miller, said characters got to participate in everything from judging Legobuilding competitions to cheering on junior participants in the rodeo.

A full list of entertainment can be found on the schedule, which begins on page 6.

FOOD AND DRINKS Hungry fairgoers won’t be lacking in choices of things to snack on. There will be doughnuts, buffalo burgers, mochi ice cream, corn on the cob, mac and cheese and lobsters rolls.

The kettle corn at the fair is “the best kettle corn I’ve ever had in my life,” Coble said.

Adult beverages — a big money-maker for the fair — will be poured at the wine and beer gardens.

The white-cheddar mac and cheese and Maine lobster rolls are a new dish this year. They will be sold by On The Rock Lobster, a new Whidbey Island business founded in April by a local family.

The fair will be John Norris’

4-H shows and the fair auction educate the public about the animals that help make society function. Here, a curious sheep decked in a pink outfit waits its turn to be shown at the 2018 fair. and his family’s first public debut of the seafood-themed catering business. He, his son and their wives are planning on bringing On The Rock Lobster’s food all over Whidbey, including stands at festivals and perhaps, someday, a food truck.

For $20, fairgoers can purchase a lobster roll, lemonade and lobster mac and cheese while supplies last, Norris said.

Gauging how many pounds of lobster to order for the fair has been tricky, but so far he’s ordered over 800 pounds to be

flown in overnight from Maine.

Sales at the fair will let them know Whidbey’s appetite for the sea crustacean.

“It’s going to get bigger and bigger,” Norris said of his budding business.

PARADE Leading this year’s parade will be grand marshals Chuck and Judy Prochaska, a married couple who moved to Greenbank in 1998. They will be riding in on a convertible provided by Matt Nichols of Nichols Brothers.

“We’re both thrilled,” Chuck Prochaska said. “I’ve been in a lot of parades, but I’ve never been featured in a parade.”

One change to the parade this year will have the procession begin on fairgrounds, rather than starting off-site and ending at the fair.

FAIRGROUNDS The Navy will once again be providing security, with between 15 and 20 volunteers on hand to make sure everything runs smoothly.

“They do a great job,” Coble said.

Funding for the fair comes from a variety of sources, including grants from the City of Langley, Department of Agriculture and Island County, Coble said. While Coble wishes grants from the Department of Agriculture were higher this year, she and other organizers have made do with what they did receive.

“If we break even we’re good,” Coble said.

They won’t compromise the authenticity and small-town charm of the fair, which islanders have come to expect.

“Other fairs go commercial.

We’re not trying to do that,” Coble said.

They’ve worked hard to keep the Whidbey Island Fair filled with locals in order to present visitors with a true hometown party.

“It’s about community, education and entertainment — in that order,” Coble said.

• Free parking is located near the fairgrounds on Langley Road, between Maxwelton Road and Sandy Point Road, and at the CMA Church on the corner of 6th Street and Cascade Avenue.

Paid parking is available across the street and at Langley Middle School. Routes from Island Transit drop off and pick up at the fairgrounds Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

The fairgrounds are located at 819 Camano Ave., Langley

Making dreams come true ‘When you Wish’

By MARIA MATSON

mmatson@whidbeynewsgroup.com

Children’s faces light up when they spot their heroes and idols walking across the Whidbey Island Fairgrounds, and performers from When you Wish Productions feel just as happy as their giddy admirers.

“The fair is one of our favorite events of the year, so we are really looking forward to it,” owner and founder April Miller said.

This year, guests can expect to see Cinderella, Ariel, Jasmine, Spiderman and Mary Poppins at the fair.

In 2018, the company came to the fairgrounds for the first time and it was a hit, according to fair manager Carol Coble.

All performers have theater backgrounds and vocal training, “so fairgoers may get to enjoy new magical musical performances this year as well,” Miller said in an email.

Having free rein of the fairgrounds last year meant the characters rode the carousel with the children, and perhaps this year Spiderman might be spotted on the big slide, Miller said.

Fairgrounds’ story pole becomes a history mystery South Whidbey historian on the case to uncover true carver

SEE POLE, Z12

The story pole has been under wraps but is expected to be viewable during the fair this year. Wood is rotted at its base and other places. How to restore it is being explored by the South Whidbey Historical Museum.

Last summer, curators and carvers with the Tulalip Tribes examined the fairgrounds pole and identified it as a Shelton pole. But the story pole’s story took a dramatic turn in last February when South Whidbey historian Bill Haroldson heard an alternative version of its origin.

Whidbey Island Fairgrounds & Events Center offers year-round camping!

University of Washington also has a Shelton story pole that stood for decades in an Illinois town park that it hopes to restore.

A story pole differs from a totem pole, in that a totem pole tells a tribal or family story while a story pole illustrates and passes down Native American legends and folktales.

raised on Whidbey Island, was believed to be the artist of the fairgrounds pole.

It was created in the style of other story poles he carved starting in 1912 until his death in 1938. One of his story poles stood for 70 years on the capitol grounds in Olympia before deterioration forced its removal.

If only the story pole could talk and tell its own story.

Fifty feet tall, it peered down on generations of families who make the annual July trip to the Island County Fairgrounds to see the 4-H exhibits, eat curly fries by the cart load and scream in delight on carnival rides.

Crafted from a Western red cedar tree, the story pole was taken down by the Port of South Whidbey for safety reasons and for restoration assessment.

It’s now wrapped up and resting in an unfamiliar horizontal position between the Burrier and Turner buildings. After more than 70 years of being exposed to the elements, its base is rotted and the wood has sustained other damage.

“It is our intention to have the Tulalip Tribes restore the story pole,” said Angi Mozer, former port executive director, “but we will need to pay for the restoration.”

The port now owns and maintains the fairgrounds.

FROM POLE, Z11

“Jim Brevig said his uncle, Paul Cunningham, carved the pole, and he had this older Native American telling him what to carve, what order to carve in and exactly what paint to use,” said Haroldson, president of the South Whidbey Historical Society.

According to Brevig, now 87, two poles were carved on the family’s Bayview property, but he’s unsure of the exact year. Other relatives also recall the scene of a native man passing along his skills to Paul Cunningham, who was Caucasian.

“There were two tall totem poles and two short ones in my grandfather’s yard,” said Albert Hagglund, 83. “There was an Indian showing him how to carve it.”

Cunningham is the maiden name of Hagglund’s mother.

Tessa Campbell, curator with the Tulalip Tribes, said she’s been unable to

locate any historic photos or documentation proving William Shelton carved the fairgrounds pole. She has, however, uncovered a connection between Shelton and Cunningham.

“We have located archival materials in our collection that depict that Shelton and Cunningham were good friends,” she said. “We have photos of Cunningham and newspaper articles about them giving public presentations together.”

Shelton became an advocate for Native American rights during the era of forced assimilation by the federal government. He acted as a bridge between the two worlds. He and his daughter would demonstrate native dancing, singing, drumming and storytelling at civic events around Puget Sound.

though that wasn’t the style of coastal tribes. When asked about it, he reportedly would answer, “If we are going to fight for American Indians, we need to look like Indians.

The only Indians white people see are in the movies, and we need to look like them.”

The fairgrounds pole could be what’s known as a teaching pole. Like other Shelton poles, figures are carved in high relief, giving them a three-dimensional look.

If its history remains a mystery, plans to refurbish it may be altered, Haroldson said. Many questions remain.

Was it on loan to the fairgrounds by the Cunningham family? Was there a signed agreement that’s since disappeared? And if the pole isn’t indigenous art, is it still worth preserving?

To the last question, Haroldson answers a resounding, “Yes.” “We do feel it is an artifact of William Shelton and of Whidbey Island,” he said.

“It was carved in the Shelton tradition. The Fairground’s pole remains as a legacy of William Shelton and his efforts to bridge the gap between Native America and White America.”

headdress anchors the base.

In between are a rock, an octopus holding a salmon, a bird, a bushy-tailed fox, a whale, a mouse standing on a pedestal, a spider, a six-rayed sea star and two faces.

Who carved the fairground’s pole, what story is being told by its carvings, how it ended up on the fairgrounds and what year it was erected there remain mysteries, Haroldson said.

Consulting longtime Whidbey families, such as the Gabeleins, Skarbergs and Hagglunds, has been part of Haroldson’s detective work.

“I’ve been a little unnerved by this,” he admitted. “Up until February, we had a pretty straight forward story.

WHIDBEY ISLAND FAIR GUIDE

Wednesday, July 17, 2019 • The South Whidbey Record

Grand Marshals: Chuck and Judy Prochaska This handsome married couple of 43 years moved to Whidbey Island in 1998, setting up their homestead in beautiful Greenbank.

Chuck worked as an aerospace engineer at Boeing and Judy spent her working career as an office manager at Coldwell Banker until they both retired in 2000. However, the work had just begun.

They transferred their membership to the local Deer Lagoon Grange and joined the Island County Fair Association. Chuck soon became master of the Deer Lagoon Grange, a position he held several times over the past 19 years.

With their involvement and the help of all the Grange members, the Grange Hall has become a gathering spot that hosts programs for the betterment of the public, including annual community sales

and monthly “Quilts for Veterans” sessions.

In addition to facilitating the Deer Lagoon Display at the Fair, he became the superintendent of the entire Open Class Agricultural Division in the Burrier Building annex.

With Judy supporting and assisting him at every step along the path, the Ag Division has grown to six strong categories that include the traditional fruits, vegetables and grains, along with honey, compost and the famous Veggie Critters that bring exhibitors both young and old. These two have dedicated their retirement years not only to volunteering their own time but engaging others to promote the values and mission of the Grange and fair.

Every year, the parade at the Whidbey Island Fair features many community organizations, costumed participants and a grand marshal or two. This year the parade leaders are Chuck and Judy Prochaska.

The history of the Fair Association

Roots of the Island County Fair, now the Whidbey Island Fair, go back to 1912, when it was established in Coupeville by a private company as the Island County Fair Association.

But the fair needed to draw its audience from all of Whidbey Island, and for South Whidbey residents back then, the trip to Coupeville was difficult and expensive. Traveling by horseback or carriage, it was a 20- to 30- mile journey, which necessitated an overnight stay.

Excursion boats brought passengers from Camano Island and various points on Whidbey Island, but the fair attendance remained poor and the fair died in 1916 for lack of support.

Langley resurrected the fair in 1917 on the town’s waterfront. In 1922, it was moved to the town’s school gymnasium, and the following year the fair was organized as a nonprofit organization funded by memberships. By the late 1920s, there were better roads and auto travel. The fair prospered and in 1934 - one of the worst years of the Great Depression - the Fair Association built the pole building on property adjacent to the school. Using support from the WPA (Works Progress Administration), the association purchased a six-acre chicken ranch near the school and construction began on a large fair building, completed in 1937.

During the next three decades horse barns and exhibit halls were added.

The Fair Association deeded the fairgrounds to Island County in 1962 with the understanding that the property could not be sold without a majority vote of the island’s pioneer descendants. The association continues to operate the fair (held annually in July) and members are proud that no tax dollars support it. The fairgrounds are located at 819 Camano Avenue in Langley.

Top 4-H student of the year reflects on 10 years

Camden Miller, a recent graduate of South Whidbey High School, participated in the horse division for years, switched to cattle this year

By MARIA MATSON

mmatson@whidbeynewsgroup.com

It’s been a good ride for 2019 Oak Harbor High School graduate Camden Miller.

For 10 years, beginning when she was in third grade, she worked with animals, mentored younger students and competed in Island County 4-H events.

For her tireless efforts, as well as her animal husbandry know-how and successes, Miller earned the title of “4-H’er of the Year.”

And this year, Miller proved she isn’t afraid to try something new.

“I started off showing horses. This year I switched to showing steers,” Miller said.

“It’s definitely been super different and super interesting.”

For this first time in a long time, the 4-H veteran found herself doing “a lot of asking instead of showing.” She raised a young steer, Jimmy, from a 6-month-old calf into a large, muscular, healthy adult.

Tasty too, Miller hopes.

At the annual fair auction,

if Jimmy makes weight, he will be up for sale alongside lamb and swine; bidders may purchase meat in quarters or halves.

“It’s a chance for the community to buy a part of what you worked on,” Miller said of the steer that she fed and walked daily since December.

“I was lucky enough to get a really calm steer. He hasn’t been too hard to deal with,” Miller said.

She grew up raising cows, so parting with Jimmy, the black Angus bovine, isn’t such sweet sorrow.

“They’re cute but they gotta go,” she said.

Jimmy and Miller will also be in several other classes at the fair, including showmanship and marketplace.

Miller is looking forward to experiencing the Whidbey Island Fair in a new way this year.

For the past nine years, she participated with horses, including Lena and Addie.

The transition in divisions was smooth, Miller said, due to the helpful community and friendliness of 4-H members.

Applying for the title of 4-H’er of the Year meant collecting letters of recommendation, writing a personal essay and taking part in an interview.

Miller’s interviewing skills in particular impressed the panel of judges, according to Youth Development 4-H Program Coordinator Cathi Mann-Fisher.

Additionally, Miller’s work mentoring younger students and knowledge in her projects made her the prime candidate for the title.

“She’s just been generally a very active young lady,” Mann-Fisher said. “She’s the type of person who makes everybody feel comfortable.

She works great with everybody and is always good to lend a hand if you need help.”

Miller’s 4-H work over the years in the horse division lead to state competition every year she was involved.

She placed top five in her classes, Miller said.

“She’s great with the animals, very gentle and good at handling them,” MannFisher said. “She’s very respectful young lady. She

Mann-Fisher said she will miss Miller after she leaves for college at Whitworth University in Spokane.

For Miller, the best thing about her time in 4-H was the friends she made and the people she met throughout the year.

Perhaps someday after college, she will return to help out in 4-H once again, Miller said.

Each July, during the Whidbey Island Fair, 4-H’ers in the Market Animal Project take one final opportunity to show off their animals as they enter the auction arena.

The culminations of a year’s worth of hard work, these market animals embody a wide variety of lessons learned.

The 4-H’ers who raised the animals have a deep personal understanding of the resources and effort required. They also know these are living creatures that are now on their way to peoples’ dinner tables.

The auction runs from noon to about 4 p.m. Saturday afternoon. To the background noise of the carnival, 4-H-ers bring their sheep, goats, beef and pigs into the area one by one. The auctioneer tells a little about each 4-H-er and their project plans and goals, as well as how their animals did in the fitting and showing competitions.

Local farmers, politicians, business owners, 4-H families and others sit at the ready with their bidder numbers and checkbooks in hand.

After the bidding is done, the animals return to their stalls to spend a final day in the barns and are taken to the meat processor Sunday.

Once they have been slaughtered, the 4-H’ers gather again — this time at the processing facility, to evaluate the carcasses, noting how different breeds and different feeding regimens resulted in different grades of meat. After that, packages of locally grown, natural beef, sheep, pork and goat are ready to be picked up by those high bidders from the Saturday auction.

Obviously, this is a very intense project.

It is also perhaps, one of the 4-H’s most powerful ones. Unlike many, these kids know exactly where hamburger comes from and further understand why things like mad cow disease or hoof and mouth cause panic.

They know farmers and ranchers are working extremely hard, under intense financial pressures, to keep food on our tables. They accept that there are standerds of behavior that are non-negotiable when dealing with living creatures and our environment. Raising livestock is about more that the bottom line; it is also about quality of life for all elements involved.

The purpose of this livestock sale is to provide an incentive for youth to exhibit and sell quality market stock (beef, sheep, swine and goats) that has reached marketable weight and grade. Both the seller and the bidder and/or buyers are reminded that the price paid to the seller for an animal may not, in fact, reflect a true market price at the time of the sale.

When you make a purchase at the auction you are indeed getting a quality product in the form of meat for your freeze and table. Perhaps even more importantly, you are subsidizing the learning experience of the 4-H-er involved.

Many of these 4-H-ers will go on to raise livestock as a business, and soon enough will learn what the real market will bear. Until then, we hope the incentives they receive in the hometown auction will keep them engaged and learning all about agriculture in the 21st century.
