NOLS board backs Sequim Library expansion project with resolution

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

Months of planning, community outreach and architectural design toward expansion of the Sequim Library got its stamp of approval from its elected board last week.

The North Olympic Library System’s board of trustees voted on May 9 to approve a resolution for expansion of the 6,050-square-foot Sequim branch to a new, 17,000-square-foot facility, one that would require voter approval of a $12.4 million bond proposal slated for November.

The five-member library board unanimously agreed to back staff recommendations for the

Bluff erosion has Clallam County planning culvert replacement

BY ROB OLLIKAINEN Olympic Peninsula News Group

A poorly-designed culvert has hastened the erosion of a bluff canyon between Sequim and Port Angeles, forc-

ing a temporary road closure and an unplanned culvert replacement project, Clallam County officials said.

The 1960s culvert near the corner of West Bluff Drive and Juan De Fuca Way had a “Ni-

agara Falls effect” on the upper slopes of the bluff, causing it to undercut the surrounding area, Assistant County engineer Joe Donisi said.

The leading edge of the 180-foot-deep ravine was

about 40 feet from Bluff Drive in February and had moved to within 12 feet of the residential road when it was closed to traffic May 1.

“It kind of comes in spurts,” Donisi said of the erosion.

Crews have dumped truck loads of rock and gravel in the area west of Siebert Creek, installing a temporary water bypass system to protect Bluff Drive and an adjacent yard from further erosion of the bluff.

No homes or other structures have been threatened, Donisi said.

“We’ll get a contractor in there to get the old culvert out that’s causing problems and get a new one in that will be water tight,” County Engineer Ross Tyler said on May 11.

“We should be able to stop the erosion.”

Clallam County commissioners were scheduled to

discuss a call for bids for the West Bluff Drive culvert replacement project this week.

County officials hope to reopen West Bluff Drive from Juan De Fuca Way and Island Vista Way by the end of the summer.

Donisi estimated the cost of the culvert replacement project would be about $300,000. That includes the erosion control that has occurred since West Bluff Drive was closed.

“The neighborhood is very happy that we’re there,” Do-

nisi said.

“We’ve been on a firstname basis with many, many people in the neighborhood that are very positive about us working there.”

Donisi said the erosion was accelerated by the design of the old culvert.

The outflow of the new 12-inch pipe will be lower on the hill to reduce the Niagara Falls effect, he said.

“We’re going to get it down the slope so we’re not pouring water on top of the ravine,” Donisi said.

Park water feature springs back to life Garden club, city invites community to celebrate ressurected waterfall, pond

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL

Fountain ribbon-cutting

Sequim Gazette

A scenic Sequim spot along the old highway that was shuttered for about two decades has sprung back to life.

The waterfall fountain and pond at Pioneer Memorial Park was constructed back in the fall of 1965 and added a feature to the downtown park through the 1990s.

At some point that decade, however, leaks and other malfunctions forced it to shut down and it was filled in with cement, Sequim Prairie Garden Club member/historian Laura Singer said.

The City of Sequim began its rehabilitation in 2017 and revived the waterfall and pond late last year, adding rockery and plantings.

The city and garden club members are hosting a ribbon-cutting celebration for the waterfall on May 16.

Following the ceremony, visitors can see historic photographs of the construction of the original fountain while enjoying refreshments at the park clubhouse.

David Garlington, City of Sequim Public Works Director, spearheaded the resurrection project last year.

“David approached me one day, saying he’d like to get this fountain going,” Public Works Operations Manager Ty Brown said. “I was like, ‘What fountain?’ It was so overgrown.

“It’s good thing (we did) — it sure looks beautiful.”

Originally, the waterfall was a community project, Singer explained, when in the mid-1960s community members conceived the idea to place the piece along US Highway 101, one that once ran through downtown Sequim before the 101 bypass was constructed in 1999. The project got its first major donor from Henry Lotzgesell, who donated about $600 in honor of the passing of his wife Hazel on Sept. 29, 1965.

For his contribution, Lotzgesell did the honors of the first shovel full at the project’s groundbreaking on Oct. 24 of that year.

“While this fountain is the project of many past and future contributors, Mr. Lotzgesell, his family and friends requested they be permitted to meet the present cost as a memorial to Hazel Lotzgesell so that the entire community might enjoy it now instead of having to wait,” garden club president Mrs. Lester McFarland told the Port Angeles Evening News on an article dated Oct. 27, 1965.

Initially the waterfall was about 5 feet high, 15 feet wide and featured two waterfalls; the restored version is a bit smaller and features one waterfall, Singer said.

Designed by landscape art-

a Story Everyone has

A ribbon-cutting celebrating the newly-restored fountain at Pioneer Memorial Park is set for noon Wednesday, May 16.

Refreshments will be served in the clubhouse following the ceremony, where visitors will be able to enjoy a display of historic photographs of the construction of the original fountain. The waterfall style fountain was originally completed in 1965 but became inoperable in the 1990s. Its restoration began in 2017.

Call 360-683-4908 for more information. ist Lesly W. Howard, son of garden club member Laura Dubuque, the waterfall project saw garden club members and others from the Sequim community perform much of the labor to get it up and running.

According to annual Sequim Prairie Garden Club notes from 1966, club members laid electric and water lines, hauled rock and dirt and cooked meals for other crew members.

Howard, who donated time, labor and equipment for the effort, had his landscaping crew complete the work by November of 1965.

Several members of the Lotzgesell family have helped maintain the fountain and added decor over the years, Singer said, but consistent maintenance issues forced its closure in the early 1990s.

In 2006, Gloria Lotzgesell funded a commemorative bench near the defunct waterfall for Henry and Hazel Lotzgesell, her grandparents.

Reviving the fountain In 2014, a garden club project began in effort to open up the views of the park’s lands adjacent to East Washington Street, giving passers-by a

He said staff designed photo/Port Angeles Evening News

Club members cleared out years of overgrowth, replacing it with various trees and shrubs.

Then, in 2017, the City of Sequim began the literal heavy lifting of the revival project. Brown put together a team of city staff and — after consultation with the Lotzgesell family about some of the specifics of what the new waterfall/pond would look like — used a mini excavator to dig out the old concrete, repaired and reconfigured some of the water system, installed a liner and added rocks.

“With the nice weather, drivers were tickled pink to get their cars in the show,” Kapetan said.

For the Festival’s Fun Run 5k/1k, Kapetan said entries doubled in the last week and several more signed up prior to the event on May 12.

This year, organizers added a 1k walk/run, and Kapetan said they’ll likely see the event continue to grow.

For the 5k, Brandon Wagner, 14, finished first in 19:31.55 followed by Elisa Laverty, 22, in 20:10.17 and Colby Ellefsen, 12, in 22:04.83.

In the 1k, Max Ray Frankfurth, 11, finished in 6:35.28, followed by Alex Schmadeke, 13, in 6:36.12, and Adrian Brown, 13, in 6:36.99.

The carnival in the Sequim High School softball fields ended the festival for the year on Sunday and despite the nice weather, Kapetan said they made just a little over last year’s total.

“Normally, we have one or two rainy days but this year we were sunny on all of them,” she said. “The numbers weren’t up as much as I thought they’d be.”

Next to the Kickoff Dinner fundraiser, the carnival is the biggest moneymaker for the festival, which is run by all volunteers.

What’s next?

In the days and weeks following the festival’s twoweek run, Kapetan said organizers consider how to improve the experience for visitors and locals.

“As more people learn about the festival, we determine how we can grow

with the current volunteer base,” she said. “Everyone says it but we’re going to need more volunteers. The Rotarians, Soroptimists, Lions, Boys & Girls Club, Scouts, and all the service clubs get pulled in already.”

To volunteer, or for more information on the festival, email info@irrigationfestival.com or visit www.irrigationfestival.com.

In June, organizers plan to release the 124th festival’s tagline and storyline.

If you haven’t had enough of the festival, Sequim High School’s operetta “How to

Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” finishes its run this weekend at 7 p.m. May 17-19 at Sequim High School, 533 N. Sequim Ave. Advanced tickets available at https:// shsoperetta.ludus.com.

The festival’s royalty and their float will be appearing in 15 parades this summer including Port Townsend’s Rhododendron Festival’s Grand Parade on May 19 and the Victoria Day Parade in Victoria, B.C. on May 21.

Library

From page A-1 expansion that would see all-new construction at the branch’s current location at 630 N. Sequim Ave., but would more than double the library’s size, add meeting rooms, reconfigure parking and add other amenities staffers say is needed with the facility’s heavy use in recent years. “(The vote) is a commitment on our part,” board of trustees chair Mark Urnes said.

Community members can get an up-close look at conceptual drawings and talk with staff from the library system and SKHS Architects at a community presentation and reception from 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday, May 16, at the Sequim branch.

See more about the project at www.nols.org/sequimbranch-expansion-project/.

The resolution, Library Director Margaret Jakubcin said last week, takes the expansion proposal “out of limbo” and focuses the library system’s intentions into one document — complemented by an 85-page final report from SKHS Architects (available online at www.nols.org).

The board also voted to spend $1 million of the library system’s funds toward the project that is estimated to cost $13.4 million.

SKHS Architects estimate the building will cost $8.8 million, with $3.6 million in “soft” costs (permits, sales tax, a 10 percent contingency), with the library dedicating another $1 million for other costs such as project management.

For the expansion to be realized, however, voters would need to approve two measures in the fall. That includes the creation of a Library Capital Facilities Area, or LCFA, that encompasses roughly the boundaries of the Sequim School District, with at least 50 percent plus one vote.

Voters would simultaneously be asked to agreed to the bond proposal itself, a $12.4 million measure in general obligation bonds to be paid off over 21 years, with at least 60 percent plus one vote.

Jakubcin pointed out that the City of Sequim would have to approve identical

Fishing

From page A-1 day (Monday, May 14) and a number of fish were lost due to high water temperatures,” Keck wrote to club members this week.

“With the weather forecast showing warm weather through the end of the week we are concerned about losing most of the fish that we would be planting,” Keck said regarding the event, scheduled for May 19.

“We are looking at options to re-schedule the fishing day in September or October after the water in the pond cools down.”

SEQUIM GAZETTE resolutions, since the Sequim Library is in city limits, for Clallam County commissioners to approve sending the measures to the November General Election ballot.

“The city is acting independent of this; there’s no guarantee as to what they’re going to do,” Jakubcin said.

Ballot resolutions must be submitted to the Clallam County Auditor by Aug. 7 for the General Election.

Dan Gottlieb, a public finance lawyer, said Library Capital Facilities Areas do not expire once they are approved but if a bond measure fails accompanying it library districts typically run the bond measure again within one or two years. They can only be rerun once, however.

This week’s presentation can help community members understand the scope of the project and the need, board trustees said on May 9.

“It’s a good starting point for people,” library board trustee Elaine Fredrickson said.

The library system does not have a specific group appointed to promote the bond as of yet, library staffers said.

“That will certainly need to happen,” Jakubcin said.

Expansion in the works Discussions to expand the 1983 Sequim Library have been ongoing for years and the most recent push began more than a year ago when library officials and design firm SHKS Architects began making presentations with community groups in order to gauge design preferences and answer questions about expansion options following a feasibility study.

An ad hoc Sequim expansion committee was assembled to consider information provided by SHKS Architects to help consider design options.

They suggested and trustees agreed to pursue building a new library rather than remodeling the existing one.

Jakubcin said last week’s vote is another step in a yearslong process of addressing the Sequim branch’s expansion.

“This was our theme two years ago, (that) the library really wants to solve this, but we can’t really solve it on our own.”

For more information, visit www.nols.org or contact Jakubcin at 360-417-8500 x7714 or director@nols.org.

Dave Croonquist of the Puget Sound Anglers added, “We are disappointed after the enthusiasm we saw in the parade from the kids and their parents.”

The Puget Sound Anglers co-sponsors this event with Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife and the City of Sequim.

The club pays to feed trout that are donated by Fish and Wildlife, while city staff maintains the pond. The trout are raised at the Hurd Creek hatchery and planted in the pond earlier in the week preceding the event.

Keck said city officials have installed a re-circulation pump that looks to have benefits for fish survival

SEQUIM GAZETTE STAF Sequim School District will host a “capital projects levy” groundbreaking ceremony at the Sequim Community School, 220 W. Alder St., at 10 a.m. on Friday, May 18.

The ceremony is open to the community and is a celebration and recognition of the district moving forward with its capital projects to demolish the unused portions of the Sequim Community School as well as renovating the central kitchen and mov-

ing its location to the northwest corner of the school.

Sequim Schools superintendent Gary Neal will speak about the project on May 18, and Bernie O’Donnell, the northwest area development manager for Vanir Construction Management, Inc., as well as district staff, Sequim School Board of Directors members and students will be present at the ceremony.

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Sequim City Councilor Pam Leonard-Ray announced on Monday she’s putting family first and stepping down from office effective later this month.

Her plan, she told city councilors and staff on May 14, is to move with her husband Bernard “Buddy” Ray to be with her parents who are in their 80s living in Carson City, Nev. “It’s a very long way for me to travel to help them out, so my husband and I decided (to move from) what we thought would be our forever home in Sequim and move to a place that is nowhere near and dear to us,” she said.

She and her husband moved to Sequim in 2013 from Charleston, South Carolina where she lived for more than 30 years. Leonard-Ray said her husband moved here in February of that year, and she moved the day after she retired that June as an academic dean in the tutoring and remedial areas at Trident Technical College.

She’s originally from Washington and graduated from Mead High School in Spokane before earning a bachelor’s degree in elementary education from Washington State University. She later earned a Master’s in education – clinical counseling from The Citadel in Charleston.

In Sequim, she became active in the community serving as Executive Director of Dungeness Valley Health & Wellness Clinic in Sequim, and as Volunteer Coordinator for the City of Sequim.

She ran for city council seat No. 1 in the Nov. 2015 general election defeating Brandon Janisse, who was elected last November to city council. As a city councilor, she served as the city council’s liaison to the City Arts Advisory Commission.

Leonard-Ray apologized at Monday’s in the future. He also said the group is working with state officials to retain the fish which were to be used this month for a future Kids Fishing Day event.

The event, hosted by Sequim for the past 12 years, saw about 500 rainbow trout die in June of 2017 because of warmer than normal temperatures in the pond, David Garlington Sequim public works director said at a Sequim City Council meeting in 2017.

“The fishing pond in the reclaimed area wasn’t designed as a fishing pond, but an irrigation storage pond. Fish weren’t given any consideration whatsoever,” he said.

Pam Leonard-Ray, right, announced on May 14 that the May 29 Sequim city council meeting will be her last before she moves to Carson City, Nev. to help her parents starting in June. Leonard-Ray said she’s “proud I brought a different perspective and that I questioned things” as a city councilor. Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

meeting saying, “I’m sorry I will not be able to continue something I have found I have a great love for.”

She said when she ran for office she answered questions affirming that she didn’t see anything hindering her from serving her term, which expires in Dec. 2019. However, she visited her parents in April and began looking for a home and the possibility of moving has been in her mind because her mother has macular degeneration and father has glaucoma.

Her last city council meeting is set for Tuesday, May 29, and she plans to move in late June, she said.

City councilors have 90 days to appoint a replacement for Leonard-Ray, similarly to appointing Jennifer States in January to replace John Miller who passed away last November.

Candidates will interview in the coming months in front of city councilors to serve out the remainder of Leonard-Ray’s term through 2019.

She encouraged people living in city limits to vie for her council seat.

“I did not get involved with this

“Unfortunately, it’s not deep enough to stay cool when we get hot weather … It’s a great opportunity for kids to fish there. It was heartbreaking for everyone to bag up 500 fish.”

Leaders with the city, anglers and Fish and Wildlife explored moving fishing to the pond by the Sequim Dog Park.

Annually, the club puts in about 1,800 trout for the first weekend of Kids Fishing Day, the third Saturday of May, and then plants the rest soon thereafter, totaling about 3,000 fish.

“Please run for office whether you agree or don’t agree. Attend meetings.

This is your city. It belongs to the residents. Step up.”

Leonard-Ray said she told City Manager Charlie Bush and Mayor Dennis Smith a week ago of her decision.

“We’re sorry to see you go,” Smith said.

“We’re going to miss you,” Councilor Bob Lake said.

Over her tenure, Leonard-Ray said she’s “proud I brought a different perspective and that I questioned things.”

“I’m glad I put a focus on affordable housing to clarify that it’s different from homelessness, too,” she said.

Bell Street Bakery’s Russ and Linda Lewis bring their bread and pastry creations to the Sequim Farmers Market this year. Photo courtesy of Elli Rose

Bringing fresh bread, pastries to the market The Sequim Farmers Market is the only place on the peninsula that you will find Bell Street Bakery’s freshly baked European style crusty breads and pastries on Saturdays.

Yes, Sequim’s very own Bell Street Bakery will be at the market every week throughout the market season, with some of your tried-and-true faWhat’s vorites like their fluffy loaf breads and buttery artisan cookies, as well as with New some new delicacies they are making at the just for the Farmer’s Market, like Market? Almond Twists and Cinnamon Twists made with organic puff pastry dough.

Eilli Rose I had the opportunity to talk with the baker Russ Lewis late one morning when the day’s baking was finished. Although he moved to Sequim with his family to open Bell Street Bakery only two years ago, his experience baking artisan breads and pastries goes back to 1988 in Burlington, Vt., where he learned the craft when he was hired to work at a local bakery.

In his early years learning about European sourdough starters and mastering bread making, the magic of creating breads from scratch hit home instantly for Lewis. Sequim Farmers The only part of baking that took some adjustment was Market waking up at 3:00 in the Senior Appreciation Day morning. After five years 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, May 19 he opened his own bakery, Sequim Civic Center Plaza and then in 2016 opened the www.sequimmarket.com doors at Bell Street Bakery in Sequim. Now his workdays begin at 1:30 a.m. and wrap up about 12 hours later.

What sets Bell Street Bakery’s baked goods apart?

“Timing is pretty much everything,” Lewis explains.

“Our bread still has quite a bit of warmth when it gets to the markets. It is so fresh that it overwhelms the area with its fragrance.”

His daily repertoire includes variations of fruit breads and savory breads made with seasonal vegetables from Nash’s — in the early spring he made roasted leek mozzarella bread, and currently he is making a roasted raab french bread. One of his favorite breads is the Honey Irish Oatmeal sliced loaf.

“It took a year-and-a-half to gain popularity, but I stuck with it because I believe in it,” Lewis says. “It is a good bread.

It makes the best turkey sandwich!”

Well, now I know what I’ll be making for lunch …

You can find Russ and his wife Linda at the Sequim Farmers Market every Saturday from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. on the Sequim Civic Center Plaza.

This Saturday, May 19, is Senior Appreciation Day at the Sequim Farmers Market! Stop by the market booth, where we will be distributing $100 in coupons which can be redeemed with any vendor at the market, while supplies last! Senior Appreciation Days are made possible by Park View Villas and will recur monthly throughout the season: May 19, June 16, July 14, Aug. 18, Sept. 15 and Oct. 20.

A special thanks goes out to Bell & Davis Law, Brokers Group Real Estate and First Federal Savings & Loan.

Makeup? Check. Fullservice salon? Check. Skin bar? Check.

Ulta Beauty opened the doors of its new store in Sequim at 1065 W. Washington St., featuring 20,000 beauty products across 500 brands and offer a variety of beauty services.

General Manager Angela Moreau said the Sequim store brings some new beauty elements to the Olympic Peninsula, such as a M.A.C. boutique and the store’s skin bar, which provides services such as facials and skin care.

The store had a soft opening on May 4 and a grand opening on May 11 and Moreau said so far the store has received a positive response.

“The feel is really good in the community,” she said.

“I’m really proud to be a part of this community.”

The store offers a multitude of cosmetics at high and low price points, from well-known brands such as M.A.C., Benefit, Estee Lauder and Clinique to more basic products.

It also provides fragrances, nail, hair and skin care products, professional hair tools and an Ulta Beauty collection. The company’s slogan “all things beauty, all in one place” fits with its wide inventory of products.

While the aisles of Ulta

SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF A Port Angeles teen faces possible jail time and fines after he and two minors allegedly burglarized Nature’s Gifts, a marijuana dispensary, at 755 W. Washington St., Suite C, in Sequim.

Sgt. Mike Hill with Sequim Police Department reports law enforcement were dispatched at 1:49 a.m. Thursday, May 10, to discover a window at the shop smashed in and boxes of rolling papers on the ground inside and outside the store.

A witness reported three individuals broke into the store and at 2:11 a.m.

Sheriff Deputy Torri Middlekauff found and arrest three males in the field south of the store, including Brett Beck, 19, of Port Angeles, and two juveniles, whose names were not released.

Beck was booked later in the morning on May 10 into Clallam County Jail.

Court documents state Nature’s Gifts owner David Halpern and law enforcement reviewed video and seeing Beck allegedly breaking the window with a rock and he and one of the minors entered the store taking some rolling papers before running from the store.

One of the minors’ backpack allegedly had the same rolling papers inside it,

The other fishermen, William Lee and Harold Fowler, were treated by medics at the Coast Guard station. Officials with the Sheriff’s Office could not confirm Lee and Fowler’s ages or places of residence.

The three men were halibut fishing when the small, unnamed vessel was hit by a large wave and capsized at about 4:52 p.m.

“It sounds like the wave hit the boat at a bad angle,” Minks said Saturday.

law enforcement report, and that Beck’s backpack allegedly held a large rock used on the window, similar clothing seen on the video and rolling papers found in his sweatshirt.

Vincent Luis, general manager of the store, said thieves stole about $20 in rolling papers and caused about $350 in damage by breaking the window.

Luis said they were in the store less than 30 seconds and did not steal marijuana nor have easy access to marijuana.

Beck had a preliminary hearing in Clallam County Superior Court on May

10 and faces charges of burglary in the second degree, malicious mischief in the third degree, and theft in the third degree. Combined the three charges could lead up to 12 years of jail time and/ or $30,000 in fines.

Beck was released on $5,000 bail and Judge Brian Cougenhour ordered that he cannot have contact with the minors or go to Nature’s Gifts, according to court documents.

His arraignment hearing is set for 1:30 p.m. Friday, May 18 in Superior Court.

against the rocks on Tatoosh Island and dragged it back to sea.

“It was a Good Samaritan vessel that actually rescued the two people,” Read said.

Radtke was found unresponsive in the water.

Coast Guard crews performed CPR on Radtke as he was taken to Neah Bay on the 87-foot cutter Adelie. His next of kin has been notified, Minks said.

Minks and Read said they did not know whether the men were wearing life jackets.

It was unknown how long the men were in water.

The water temperature at Neah Bay was 53.2 degrees on May 12, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration observations.

The vessel that the three men were fishing in was less than 20 feet long,

Read said.

The boat sank between Tatoosh Island and Cape Flattery, Clallam County Chief Criminal Deputy Sheriff Brian King said.

The Clallam County Sheriff’s Office Marine Unit was investigating.

Read reminded boaters to wear life jackets and to use caution.

“It’s been a long winter,” Read said.

“We need people to be as careful as they can be out there.

“The water is still very cold,” he added.

iff’s Search and Rescue team, led by Deputy Mike Leiter, hiked in to investigate. Once on scene the search team found the remains, which they believe to be Adams, based on physical characteristics and clothing description.

The recovery lasted well into the night, King said.

The remains will be held for autopsy to determine the manner and cause of death.

Foul play is not suspected.

Adams, who hails from the Chicago area, served as a nuclear electrician’s mate second class on the Bremerton-based USS Nimitz.

He has been described as an experienced hiker who often trekked into the Olympic Mountains.

he left for a hike May 4. He failed to rendezvous with friends for another hike May 5.

Fellow sailors found the 2013 Ford Fiesta that Adams was driving at the Lower Gray Wolf trailhead last Monday night.

His remains were found on May 12 as officials scaled back their search efforts after a four-day sweep of the Buckhorn Wilderness south of Sequim.

Olympic Mountain Rescue teams were conducting searches on steep terrain in remote corners of the Buckhorn Wilderness. Ground crews of up to 100 personnel had spent the previous four days looking for Adams in the Gray Wolf River Valley, where Adams’ car was found last Monday night, and neighboring basins.

Swift water rescue teams

from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office and Clallam County Fire District No. 3 looked up and down the fastflowing Gray Wolf River to no avail last week.

USS Nimitz officials addressed the disappearance on the ship’s Facebook page on May 10.

“First and foremost, our thoughts and prayers are with our Sailor and his family during this challenging time,” the post read.

King emphasized the importance of hiking with others and staying on established trails when exploring the Olympic Mountains.

“The Olympics are a majestic and beautiful place to go, but there are a lot of dangers with the type of terrain you hike through,” he said.

“Take the greatest precautions possible.”

“He would not have been able to survive the fall that occurred,” he said, adding Adams suffered obvious broken bones. “We believe he died at the time of the fall.”

King said it appears Adams left the main trail and attempted to traverse a primitive trail. He said search and rescue crews had searched the area previously, but because of the thickness of the brush and how far he apparently fell, they were unable to spot him.

Free housing, finance choice panel discussion set for May 23

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

Mary Coupland is hoping to give residents on the Olympic Peninsula some answers to some of life’s tougher aging choices before they are forced to make them.

Coupland, through her Compass & Clock organization, is bringing “Know Your Choices Before You Have to Make Them,” a free panel and question-and-answer discussion, to the Sequim Prairie Garden Club’s clubhouse at Pioneer Memo-

Genealogical society to host annual meeting

rial Park on Wednesday, May 23.

The format, Coupland says, is to bring local professionals to the table for advice and information that helps residents “connect the dots” between housing choices and financial planning.

“I’m excited about trying to raise awareness with folks, mostly in their mid-40s and (older),” Coupland said. “People plan for their vacation; they should plan for their future. This is an opportunity (to) impart you with some knowledge.”

Coupland has a number of lo-

cal professionals on hand to speak to several aspects of housing and financial issues for local citizens, including representatives from Discovery Memory Care, Laurel Place, Home Instead, BrokersGroup Real Estate, Assured Hospice, Edward Jones and others.

The event is set to run 10 a.m.noon, with light snacks and beverages provided.

“This isn’t supposed to be boring or dreary; its (designed) to be a interactive, social event,” Coupland said.

In her fifth year of bringing similar

events and publications to the West Sound — she helped organize a similar event in Sequim in September of 2016 — Coupland said she dealt with a lack of information in her own family she wishes she’d had.

“Our parents are coming to us for information and we won’t have it for them,” she said. “You can’t make choices if you don’t know what your options are.”

Coupland helps produce “Compass & Clock,” a free publication designed to help aging citizens with issues from finance and health care

Mary “Jean” Robinson 1926 – 2018 Jean peacefully passed away at her home in Sequim on a rainy Saturday evening in April, with her daughters by her side guided

by Juanice from Volunteer Hospice. Her mind and body failed after a fall and five years of coping with the ravages of Alzheimer’s Disease.

Jean Jean (Mom) was born in Kansas to her sweet parents Paul and Margaret Mattox, the second of three girls.

In 1941 the family of five moved to Long Beach, California. Mom graduated from Jordan High School, worked for Bank of America, took voice lessons and met her sweetheart and our dad, Roy M. Robinson while singing in the church choir. They were married in Long Beach in 1947. Several years later their family began. Susan, Roy Craig and twins Cheri and Mary. We four children were born in the quick succession of 2½ years. Needless to say, Dad and Mom, our aunts, uncles and grandparents were very involved in helping and caring for this little Robinson flock. Dad worked very hard for Union Oil Company to ensure that Mom could be at home with us.

Mom was a very vibrant and kind young mother.

Her hair was a beautiful, wavy auburn and her eyes were lively blue. She was so accepting of the many moves throughout our dad’s career. Their large dining room table always had a circle of friends gathered around it to enjoy a lovingly prepared meal. Mom and Dad were wonderful hosts.

As Mom aged she stayed sweet, content and always accepting of the changes that were before her.

She was lovingly looked after by her daughter, Susan, until the very end of her life. Over the past few years Mom enjoyed attending the Encore and Arts and Minds programs in Port Angeles. She would ride the Para transit bus three times a week and loved viewing the beautiful surrounding scenery between Sequim and Port Angeles.

Mom enjoyed singing, reading, sewing, knitting and volunteering at the Blood Bank. She also loved going to Gospel Meetings on Sundays. She loved the simple message of Jesus’ life and the fellowship of all who she met there. God’s quiet work brought rest and peace to her soul.

Mom was preceded in death by her husband, Roy, son Roy Craig, granddaughter, Elizabeth Robinson and two sisters Peggy and Lee. Survived by daughters, Susan Hunt, Cheri (Jerry) Duarte and Mary (Mike) Boice.

Grandchildren: Roy P. Robinson (Tracey), Kristine (Mike) Etheridge, Kathleen (Josh) Benish and Andrea (Miguel) Aguilar. Also nine great grandchildren and many nieces and nephews who loved her very much.

A Memorial is scheduled for Friday, May 18th at Pioneer Memorial Park, 387 E. Washington St., Sequim, WA at 1pm. Reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation in her memory to Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County, 540 E. 8th St, Port Angeles, WA 98362 or New Dungeness Light Station Association, P.O. Box 1283, Sequim, WA 98382.

James H. Symes (One of the Greatest Generation)

November 7, 1920 - February 21, 2018 James “Jim” Symes, 97, of Sequim, and formerly Peekskill, New York and Newtown, Connecticut passed peacefully on February 21 at Sherwood Assisted Living in Sequim.

He was born on November 7, 1920, in Butte, Montana, to Katherine (Prince) and James Sandham Symes. He grew up in Bellingham, Washington, where his father ran the Underwood Typewriter Store. He graduated from Bellingham High School Class of 1939.

With the Great Depression underway and having grown up around the waters of Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest, he enlisted in the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and sailed on the SS Pacific with his uncle out of Portland, Oregon, San Francisco and San Diego, California. When Pearl Harbor was bombed, he took an Appointment to the U.S. Merchant Marine - Officer Training School at Alameda, California.

He was a member of the 1 st U.S. Maritime Service Engineering Class and graduated in January 1943 one of the early war “90-Day Wonder Officers” as they were termed. His first assignments, as a 3rd Assistant Engineering Officer, were to Alaska during the Japanese invasion of Attu and Kiska in the Aleutian Islands.

In mid-1943 he was assigned to a new “Liberty Ship”, the SS John Barry, built by Kaiser Shipyards in Portland, Oregon. A trip to Hawaii resulted in a 5 month voyage, crossing the Equator and Pacific War Zone to Australia, the South China Sea, the Indian Ocean, Egypt and the Suez Canal, recently liberated, and then across the German U-Boat patrolled Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean to New York City. During the trip to Suez, the ship started to crack in half, a classic liberty ship rough sailing flaw, and the hull had to be steel banded. The SS John Barry was later sunk by torpedo in the Arabian Sea in 1944.

In New York City he attended the U.S. Maritime School at Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, New York and upgraded his Maritime License to 2nd Assistant Engineer. While in New York City, staying at the St. James and New Yorker Hotels, he met and later married Dorothy Muller of Pelham Bay, the Bronx, New York in December 1943. He then shipped out for England where his ship, the SS Robert Vann, took part in the D-Day Invasion on June 6, 1944. After being hospitalized at the Army Hospital in Cardiff, Wales, his ship went on to Murmansk, Russia where it was sunk by a mine in the North Sea. He returned to New York City on a troop transport, where after R&R, he was assigned to the SS Howell Lykes and SS Flying Eagle. He then sailed through the Panama Canal to Hawaii and back across the Pacific, where his ship took part in the Okinawa Invasion and survived one of the infamous “Admiral Halsey Pacific Typhoons”.

Months later he received word that he had become a father.

After the war ended, he continued to sail with the USMM, as a 1st Assistant Engineer and later Chief Engineer, ferrying US Troops home from Europe; and then re-enlisting for the Korean War. He began working ashore for the State of New York, Department of Labor, Bureau of Safety, as a High Pressure Vessel Engineer, retiring in 1983. Over the years he was a member and officer in the Peekskill, Continental Village Volunteer Fire Department, Sportsmans Club and Peekskill Yacht Club, owning many pleasure boats along the way. He returned to Seattle, Washington on the West Coast to care for his mother, a retired Doctor’s Assistant, and they relocated to Sequim, in 1988, where he was a Boat Broker and member of the Port Angeles Yacht Club.

He is predeceased by his parents, first wife Dorothy Symes, second wife Alicia Symes, friend Edna Kridler and daughter-in- law Jane Edwards Symes of Peekskill and Newtown. He is survived by his sons, Curtis L. Symes and wife Connie of Newtown, Connecticut and Lloyd J. Stofko and wife Jayme of Lithia, Florida; Grandchildren, Catherine Symes of Newtown, Christopher Symes and Heather of Newtown; and Great-Grandchildren Mason, Ryder and Piper Symes and Jordan and Skyler Stofko.

His remains will be interred at Assumption Cemetery in Peekskill, New York; Trinity Church in Newtown, Connecticut; and scattered in both the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans in which he served.

Memorial donations may be made to Assured Hospice of Clallam County in Port Angeles, WA and condolences may be directed to the Symes Family at 36 Lake Road, Newtown, CT 06470.

In retrospect, he was a wonderful and caring person who lived a long, fruitful and rewarding life through some tough times and on his own terms; and he learned that there was only one (1) way to do things - the right way!

He was baptized on December 17, 2017 at the age of 97.

The ‘Grandfather Fir’ In my foothills neighborhood we recently lost our sentry tree, a 500-year old Douglas Fir towering above the 100-year old forest. Fire is a periodic visitor throughout the Northwest and apparently devastated this particular stand — with the exception of Grandfather Fir. The stand is thick enough now that Grandfather was hard to pick out unless there was a ground fog that made his height obvious from the vantage point of our road across the valley.

Once you knew where to Water look, and found him, it was Matters mesmerizing. Best to stop Ann Soule the car and just stare at the lone sentinel with stately branches, muscled from the weight of centuries’ growth of needles and cones.

A friend and neighbor sought the giant out from ground level many years ago, and others forged a long trail to its base. Once there, one fingered the deeply furrowed bark, marveled at the trunk’s straightness, imagined sea birds nesting in crooks far above.

A touchstone for special-occasion walks — “forest bathing” as they say — that Grandfather tree made the hike extra significant even if you lived close by.

Some pretty famous poets visited, paying homage to a living relic.

I’ve wondered before how ancient trees that escape harvest eventually die: does “dying of old age” apply to trees? Is it more likely sudden or slow and imperceptible?

What causes a mighty tree which survived five centuries of wind, rain, and fire to suddenly fall?

Not surprisingly, disease is the most common culprit.

Root or stem rot can be caused by changes in drainage, and significant damage to any part of a tree lowers its long-term resistance to disease.

For Grandfather Fir, it was both sudden and slow. A late winter windstorm took him down, breaking the trunk just above the base and exposing a core of airy, rotten pulp. Perhaps there was a change in soil moisture, or perhaps the constant exposure of its top half took a toll.

A massive tree fell in the forest and no humans were around to hear the sounds: a snap, crushing of neighboring trees, and final crash. The sound of silence was waiting when fallen Grandfather Fir was discovered by his admirers. The kind of deep silence found in murky, dark forests busy producing more trees.

More recently …

The annual Irrigation Festival officially kicked off with a tradition that involves a headgate, a valve, or a sprinkler delivering Dungeness River water to thirsty farm fields.

It’s the ceremonial start to irrigation season by local royalty letting river water into a ditch.

It’s fun to think that a drop of that irrigation water was a snowflake a couple months ago, landing on a snowfield in the upper Dungeness watershed.

Eyman car tab effort a gamble Tim Eyman is so convinced his latest initiative attack on car tabs is a winner, he’s tapping the one source of money he can count on these days to finance the effort — his own.

Eyman said he is draining $500,000 from an investment account earmarked for retirement and using it to Guest hire a professional sigO pinion nature-gathering firm to help get the proposed $30 car tab measure in Jerry Cornfield front of voters. Details appear in reports filed May 10 with the state Public Disclosure Commission.

“It’s an absolute risk,” he said. “I am willing to risk a half-million dollars that this will deliver the tax relief it promises.”

Dramatic or desperate — depending on one’s perspective — the move is tacit recognition the initiative industrial complex constructed by Eyman the past two decades has crumbled.

There is no longer a bevy of anti-tax, antigovernment capitalists on which he can rely to underwrite these annual ventures. Absent this sturdy financial foundation, he must get a bunch more of his loyal followers to write checks for a bunch more than $50 to succeed.

It didn’t happen in 2016 or 2017 and, as a result, Eyman-backed initiatives to reduce car tabs didn’t come close to qualifying for the ballot. And at the start of April, when Eyman announced signature-gathering had begun for Initiative 976, the landscape looked eerily familiar.

On the policy side, he is once again pushing a measure to lower car tab fees on passenger vehicles to $30 and eliminate the voter-approved motor vehicle excise tax collected by Sound Transit. The proposed initiative also would get rid of weight fees imposed by the state and vehicle fees charged by cities for what are known as Transportation Benefit Districts.

On the money side, it again looked bleak. Voters Want More Choices, the political committee through which this and all Eyman initiative campaigns are funded, reported having only about $30,000 in the bank. It takes around $1 million these days to qualify an initiative.

Eyman said he loaned $100,000 to the committee in April and will put in another $150,000 in May. The remaining $250,000 will be funneled to the political committee’s coffers in coming months as needed, he said.

Ultimately, he said in an interview and email to supporters, it will take another half-million dollars to pay professionals to round up the 259,622 voter signatures required to qualify.

“I got them out there,” he said. “But we need to raise more to keep them out there.”

Interestingly, Citizen Solutions is the company hired to get signatures for I-976. Eyman and the firm are locked in a legal battle with Attorney General Bob Ferguson who has accused them of politically corrupt acts when they teamed up on two initiatives in 2012.

Eyman faces civil charges of secretly moving funds between the two campaigns and receiving $308,000 in kickbacks from Citizen Solutions. Eyman denies wrongdoing and the case could go to trial this fall.

Meanwhile, Eyman is pushing two initiatives this year as well. His second one would make state lawmakers subject to Washington’s public records law.

He insisted his energy — and his money — is all directed toward the car tab measure.

Because it is an initiative to the Legislature, he has until Jan. 4, 2019 to get signatures.

If successful, it would wind up on a ballot in November 2019.

“I’ve got faith supporters will be there to raise the additional funds.” he said. “I’ve got faith voters will pass it. I’ve got faith it is crafted well enough to deliver promised savings.”

He’s betting a bit of his future on it.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Sequim could use updated library

Regarding last week’s letter on the Sequim Library expansion (“Library expansion seems too costly,” Sequim Gazette, page A-8): Unless the author knows a wealthy benefactor, taxes are the way communities come together and build community resources. We join together to improve the life of our local area.

Libraries are more than space for computer terminals, which the current facility is maxed out on, not allowing needed additional workstations. The modern library is a community hub for obtaining information, attending public meetings (presently the meeting room is too small) and introducing children to books and learning resources — a “third place” after home and office, available to all.

The Sequim Library lacks the space to accomplish this in an efficient and effective manner.

In addition, the writer raises the question of a new building versus remodeling the old facility. The problem with major remodeling projects are unknown issues that arise during the construction which increase the cost. The finished, remodeled building does not function as well as a newly designed library that works to answer today’s and future needs.

The Sequim community deserves a new library.

A recipe for invasive green crab Back in 1999 my wife and I moved to Sequim from San Diego. At that time we were told that the invasive species in Sequim were Californians.

I understand that we have been replaced by the green crab (“Hunt for invasive green crab in Dungeness area claims 16 specimens in first month,” Sequim Gazette, May 9, page A-1); that’s nice to know.

A little surfing on the Internet has yielded a myriad green crab recipes.

The answer to the green crab problem (if indeed there is one) is catch ‘em and eat ‘em.

Every time mankind attempts to manage an environment bad things happen, one is reminded of Yellowstone National Park.

Enforcement is answer, not roadway changes The problem with the Woodcock/Sequim-Dungeness Way is intersection isn’t with the roadway — but with the human condition (“Roundabout considered for busy Sequim intersection,” Sequim Ga-

zette, page A-1). The main cause for the accidents is too much inattention and disregard of traffic laws, in addition to the lack of enforcement.

On a daily basis, I have watched numerous cars traveling through this intersection never coming to a complete stop at the very Large stops signs at Sequim-Dungeness.

Unfortunately, without some sort of enforcement this activity will continue.

A good example of driver involvement can be seen just over a quarter mile up the road as Sequim-Dungeness curves west, in a 50-miles-perhour zone with an intersection that dozens of cars use daily — yet to my knowledge in the past 17 years no serious accidents have occurred here because drivers are paying attention.

A change at Woodcock would only be a band-aid approach, I believe that enforcement is the answer.

Democrats have this vote A postcard arrived recently that blew me away. It was from a Republican precinct officer in my precinct asking if I wanted to take over GOP precinct duties for the next 23 months.

Did the writer think I am a smooth talker who can defend even the lousiest candidate?

Then I discovered that this person

had sent out identical cards to all our neighbors with the same request.

What would my duties be if I accepted the offer? Go door to door explaining Donald Trump to my neighbors? What about the hush money paid to porn queen Stormy Daniels? The mutual admiration of Trump and Kremlin strongman Vladimir Putin? The millions paid to Trump’s “fixer” Michael Cohen

by AT&T and Novartis, suggesting a “pay-to-play” scheme to give these billionaires access to the president’s ear?

The swamp is getting deeper. I understand why Republicans want to foist the task of defending these demagogues. GOP precinct officers in Washington State are not alone.

House Speaker Paul Ryan is one of more than two dozen GOP lawmakers who have decided to retire.

I am a Democrat and will knock on doors asking voters to reelect State Representatives Steve Tharinger and Mike Chapman, U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer, U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell and other Democrats. None of these candidates need a “fixer.” We are part of the “Blue Wave” in the 2018 midterm elections to flip the U.S. House and U.S. Senate from Republican to Democrat.

So to my Republican neighbor the answer is: thanks, but no thanks.

The A-B-Cs of viral hepatitis

Water Matters From page A-10

The liver is one of the largest organs in the body. Although considered part of the digestive tract, it supports just about every other organ and performs hundreds of complex functions critical to life. (See sidebar.)

Diseases that Guest Column damage the liver and prevent it Jeanette Stehr-Green and from doing its Gerald B. Stephanz, Jr. job can be lifethreatening.

Causative agents include toxins (such as excess alcohol or acetaminophen), genetic abnormalities, abnormalities of the immune system and infections. Among the most common infectious causes of liver disease are the hepatitis viruses: Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B and Hepatitis C.

Hepatitis A The Hepatitis A virus (HAV) is spread by the fecal-oral route, meaning that the infection is spread when the feces from an infected person are somehow ingested by another person. Contaminated food and water are not uncommon vehicles for HAV and outbreaks of Hepatitis A have been linked to contaminated vegetables, fruit, shellfish and other foods. HAV also can be spread directly from a person with Hepatitis A who fails to wash his or her hands properly after going to the bathroom.

Although HAV infection usually is selflimiting, illness can last 8 weeks or more.

Free screening event

Perhaps it was in the Greywolf drainage, the Cameron — or Royal Creek!

The future drop of irrigation water froze in place, turning into an ice crystal if it was cold and deep enough.

Spring sunshine eventually warmed that icy snowfield and our future drop suddenly couldn’t resist the downward pull of gravity. The drop oozed across older ice crystals during the day but solidified at night, over and over until it finally merged with a steady stream of fellow drops.

As one of the first drops rushing downhill this year it became a little silty and the stream was looking brown. Not to worry: this drop had business to conduct involving dirt anyway.

Under the headgate and past the fish screen, our drop was in an irrigation canal — a smoother ride than the bumpy River had been.

But then a quick change of course, a sucking feeling, and whee! Suddenly the drop is propelled through the air above a field of brown furrows.

Voila! Irrigation season begins.

Geek moment How ‘bout that snowpack? Back in April I was delighted to see a fresh blanket of snow on the southern skyline every time the rain clouds cleared, and figured we’d still see snow up there in August. In fact, a very warm May so far means it’s melting quickly.

Even though snow depth was greater than average much of the winter, the May 1 Snotel numbers show it was almost gone at that elevation (4,010 feet, roughly 1,500 feet lower than the top of the watershed).

This was not the case on May 1 in 2011 and 2012, even though March 1 depths were similar for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2018.

Talk about melting … southern Pakistan logged 122.4 degrees F in April, a new global record for the month. I’m adding temperature statistics to my geeky compilation here … for the record.

For the 2018 water year (started Oct. 1, 2017): • At Sequim 2E weather station (elev. 25 feet), Cumulative rainfall = 18 inches (way above normal); Most rainfall in 24 hours= 1.14 inches on Dec. 18; Lowest temperature = 21 degrees F on Jan. 31; Highest temperature = 79 degrees F on May 13!

• At the Dungeness SNOTEL station (elev. 4,010 feet) =N/A (webpage not available but see snowpack notes above) • At the USGS gage on the Dungeness River (Mile 11.2), Highest flow = 2,980 cfs on Nov. 23; Lowest flow = 101 cfs on Oct. 16. Range for the past month is 300-1,000 cfs (1 cubic foot per second, or just less than 650,000 gallons per day) On the morning of May 14, 2018: • Rain-free and warm for a week!

• Dungeness River = 850 cfs (rising from snowmelt, as usual in May).

• Bell Creek at Carrie Blake Park = no flow; at the mouth at Washington Harbor = 2-3 cfs.

SHS trespass leads to lockdown

Staffing

Port Angeles man looking for son charged with gross misdemeanor

this is in lieu of the district’s yearly review.

“Every year the district takes a look at the programs and sees if it can offer opportunities,” he said. “We are just uncertain of what we can offer.”

Provisional employees include those who are within his or her first three years of employment at the district or are coming over from another district within his or her first three years of employment.

District officials declined to comment on how many employees this affected before press time. Hill said employees who are issued notices would have the option to come back and apply for his or her position again in the future.

Listed in the May 7 board meeting’s consent agenda, seven certificated employees filed resignations and one filed for retirement. Helen Haller Assistant Principal Allyson Cundiff was among those who submitted a resignation that is effective on June 30.

Cundiff was hired in the fall of 2016 from a school in Bremerton working with students in pre-kindergarten through third grade. Her role as an assistant principal included some instruction leadership, leading some grade level teams and evaluation of teachers.

Hill said the process of hiring another assistant principal has not been discussed yet.

Other announcements and news at the May 7 board meeting: Assistant Superintendent Stephanie Parker announced the district’s CEE climate surveys were sent out to all staff, students in grades four through 12 and parents on May 7 and will be collected May 21. The surveys were sent by email and Spanish copies were available upon request.

SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF Several Sequim schools went on lockdown and a man who is not permitted on schools grounds was arrested Thursday morning after he appeared on the Sequim High School campus reportedly looking for his son.

Jason Spaulding, 43, of Port Angeles, was arrested for criminal trespassing following the incident on May 10.

Sequim Police Department Sgt. Mike Hill reports Spaulding arrived at the high school at about 8:25 a.m., went into the school’s H building and knocked on a classroom door in an attempt to contact his son.

Sequim Police officials said a teacher recognized Spaulding and notified school administration, who in turn contacted law enforcement.

The school went on a temporary lockdown and Helen Haller Elementary School, Sequim Middle School and Olympic Peninsula Academy went into temporary modified lockdowns.

Sequim Police officers and Clallam County Sheriff’s Office deputies searched for Spaulding but did not locate him. When law enforcement determined he was not in the area, the lockdown was lifted at 8:49 a.m.

Sequim Police officials said Spaulding did not enter any classrooms and left as the high school went into lockdown.

Spaulding was arrested at 1:15 p.m. that afternoon at the Clallam County Courthouse, where he had business with a pending case for an unrelated matter, Hill said.

The courthouse coordinated

with Clallam County Sheriff’s Department officials who took him into custody.

Spaulding was booked into Clallam County Jail and charged with criminal trespass in the first degree, a gross misdemeanor, and he posted bail at $1,000. He paid the bail and was released and his charges for criminal trespass are being sent to the Prosecutor’s Office to proceed with the case.

Spaulding had a hearing for the criminal trespass charges on May 11 in the Clallam County Courthouse.

Previously, Spaulding was issued a trespass warning in December of 2017 after causing a disturbance at the campus, which meant he could not go on to any Sequim School District campus for four years.

Hill said Spaulding had been released from Clallam County Jail within the last week.

Lockout notifications Sequim School District sent out emails and phone calls starting at about 9:06 a.m. notifying parents and guardians the schools were on temporary lockdown.

Hill said misinformation spread in the community that Spaulding had a gun and that SWAT responded to the school.

“There is no indication Spaulding was armed at any time, nor did a SWAT team respond,” he said.

Notification of the lockdown also was distributed separately from the district to some parents and community members through “Shepherd Shield,” the Sequim-based Security Services Northwest, Inc.’s

mobile app for security threats.

Security Services Northwest, Inc. President Joe D’Amico said the app, which has about 20,000 subscribers nationwide, notified users of the lockdown at 8:36 a.m., about 10 minutes after the schools went into lockdown procedures.

Its first report said, “Sequim High School is in lock down due to a non custodial parent with a gun.

The school is surrounded by SWAT and law enforcement.

Parents and civilians are asked to stay OUT of the area.

Students, lay low, stay quiet and follow directions given.”

D’Amico said that information came from a student.

“We take whatever information we get … and relay that back to our subscriber base,” he said. “We always try to verify. We attempted to call the district, but no one was answering the phone.”

D’Amico said “Shepherd Shield” sends out one to three alerts each day across its network.

“Our protocol is to go with the best information we have,” he said. “A lot of times that’s from people on site.”

The Sequim notification

was updated as more information became available.

“What we’re trying to do is get info out to parents, and part of that is to keep parents away from school,” D’Amico said.

“Students are already telling parents and other people; they are putting that info out anyway,” he said. “It’s not like it’s a big secret. It’s, how does it get out there?”

D’Amico said there is no formal agreement between his company and the Sequim School District to use “Shepherd Shield” but noted that the alert system will get better as more students, staff and parents use it.

“The thing that should have happened is to let us know,” D’Amico said. “We try to do that by reaching out.

“The whole lesson learned is that there needs to be a lot more communication.”

In a press release sent out Thursday afternoon, the Sequim Police Department extended “appreciation to the parents who had been notified by their children attending school, but refrained from entering the campus.”

“This allowed police to search for Spaulding in a more timely fashion without unnecessary interference,” the release said.

“The Police Department cautions the public to resist the temptation to believe what they are seeing on social media or subscription information sources while an incident is occurring.

In many cases this information has not been vetted for accuracy and does not come from an official source.”

Sequim School District officials declined to comment.

From page A-1

County Transportation program manager announced his department is applying for a Clallam County Safe Route to School grant from the Washington State Department of Transportation to create 5,000 feet of sidewalk from Carlsborg Road and US Highway 101 to connect to the east- and westbound routes of the Olympic Discovery Trail to encourage children to walk and bike more to and from school.

A sidewalk also would be installed beside Smithfield Road to connect Carlsborg Road sidewalk to the existing Miller Road side walk.

Sunrise Rotary, teens raise $30K SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF Last month, Sequim Sunrise Rotary’s event “Today’s Youth, Tomorrow’s Future” was a hit among Rotarians and local teens.

The silent and live auction on April 28 in the Guy Cole Events Center brought in more than $30,000 for several projects including clean water projects and Sequim Little League.

For the meal, Sequim High School students in the culinary arts program partnered with professional staff with the Cedars at Dungeness for the evening with mentorship by banquet manager Heather Croot and Head Chef Richard White.

prepared and then served appetizers and seemed very at ease, friendly and were totally professional as they made their way through the crowd of 144 people.”

YOUR LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER!

Culinary Arts teacher Dana Minard first prepared the students for the evening having them help with a meal fundraiser at Sequim Community Church late last year, McKenna-Blessing said.

Students from the high school’s AgroScience class also created centerpieces for the event.

The dinner’s “Raise the Paddle” also supported the newly-formed Joe Rantz Youth Fund to help identify and provide assistance to students who find themselves in homeless situations, such as the estimated 130 students identified as

homeless in Sequim School District this year.

The fund, conceptualized

by Pat McCauley, is named after the late Joe Rantz, a former Sequim resident who overcame challenging childhood situations to succeed in life and earned acclaim as one of the 1936 Olympic Games U.S. eightman crew gold medalists and primary subject of “The Boys in the Boat” best-seller.

His daughter Judy Rantz Wellman spoke at the dinner about her father’s time as a teen growing up in Sequim.

All funds raised will be distributed through the Boys & Girls Club, the McKinney Vento program via the Sequim School District, and the Rotary group.

For the evening, McKenna-Blessing worked with Club President Jim McEntire to organize the event, and Eric Maynerd served as master of ceremonies while Charlie Johnson offered his services as auctioneer to bring in record donations for the annual dinner.

Gleaners seeking bonus crop yields

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

Calling all fruits and veggies.

The Clallam County Gleaner volunteer group is in search of produce to pick and share with the community this growing season.

“Gleaning is an old-fashioned word that means harvesting extra fruits and vegetables which are left in the field after a farmer has already picked everything they can sell,” AmeriCorps intern/WSU Food Recovery Coordinator Sharah Truett says.

“In our case, you don’t have to be a farmer to participate.

You just need to have some extra fruits and veggies growing in your garden,” she says.

Homeowners with extra fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, peaches, grapes, apricots, kiwi, figs and cultivated blackberries are especially encouraged to donate because these fruits are scarce. Garden fresh vegetables are also in great demand.

However, any fruit is welcome, Truett says.

Operated through the WSU Extension Office, the Clallam Gleaning Program has a dual goal: reducing food waste in Clallam County, while also addressing hunger and poor nutrition. In 2017, Clallam gleaners rescued more than 50,000 pounds of produce that was distributed to those in need in Clallam County.

Truett says the process is simple: “A gleaning volunteer come to your house and picks your extra produce. Our program allows the volunteer take some of the produce for themselves, but they are asked donate at least half of what they pick to food banks, schools, senior nutrition programs, residential facilities, churches, etc. This way, the food is spread as widely as possible in our community and not left to rot under trees.”

Gleaning volunteers take a ladder safety test to be covered under the WSU Extension Office’s insurance, and produce donors are covered under the Good Samaritan Law. Produce donors can receive a tax credit receipt for produce donated upon request.

To share produce to be gleaned, homeowners can contact Truett at 360-565-2619 or struett@co.clallam.wa.us.

Protect those trees

Fruit tree owners wanting to learn more about how to protect their trees from pest damage should drop into a Master Gardeners plant clinic, held on an ongoing basis at the Woodcock Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, Sequim, on Saturdays, 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., from May 26-Sept. 29.

Clinics are also held 9:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. through Oct. 15 at the Clallam County Courthouse, 223 E. Fourth St., Port Angeles.

Get more information about tree protection by calling the plant clinic helpline at 360-417-2514 or by email at mgplantclinic.clallam@gmail.com.

Although berry plants are most productive when planted in the ground, there are many good reasons to grow them in containers.

You might grow berries in pots bec au se your garden space Get It is limited or Growing the soil in your garden is not

by Jeanette right for growStehr-Green ing berries (for instance, not acidic enough for blueberries).

Growing berries in containers close to your house can give you easier access to tend and harvest them and the proximity to humans might deter a few four-legged pests.

Finally, berries (and often the plants they grow on) are attractive and eye-catching. Growing them on your front porch, deck or patio can add ornamental value to your home and surroundings.

Although many berries can be grown successfully in containers, it is best to select varieties that are smaller and more compact (see box).

• Day neutral strawberries produce fewer runners than June-bearing strawberries, making them more adaptable to containers. They also produce strawberries throughout the growing season.

• Half-high and dwarf blueberries top out at 3-4 feet and are a better choice for containers than northern highbush blueberries that easily can achieve 6 feet in height.

• Newly released dwarf raspberries and blackberries have a compact growth habit, reaching only 2 to 4 feet in height. The added bonus is that they tend to be thornless.

Plant your berries in containers large enough to accommodate the roots and transplant to larger containers, as needed.

Even the smaller, compact varieties will do best when planted

‘Men With Guitars’ hits OTA stage on May 19 SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF The Mujeres de Maiz Opportunity Foundation’s sixth-annual Men With Guitars concert is set for 7 p.m. Saturday, May 19, at Olympic Theatre Arts, 414 N. Sequim Ave. Doors open at 6:30.

Suggested donation is $15 (no advance tickets available). Wine and beer will be available.

All proceeds go to educational programs and projects of Mujeres de Maiz Opportunity Foundation — a grassroots nonprofit organization established specifically to provide access to education for the young women in a seamstress cooperative centered in San Cristobal de Las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico.

The concert features two popular duos: Cowboy Bob and Uncle Mo, and High Divide.

Cowboy Bob and Uncle Mo are Bob Lawrence-Markarian and Marty Kaler, a pair who met in a cabin 40 years ago near Forks gathering with mutual friends to practice for a major gig. The new friends became The Mossback Ramblers who reportedly had a good run on the “West End” scene in the early 1980s until their paths twisted away. The Port Angeles residents reunited after several years to help form the local group Twisted Roots. As a duo, they play old and new tunes featuring fingerstyle guitar, ukulele, banjo, dobro, weissenborn guitar, lap steel guitar and humor.

The second half of the show brings High Divide, a pair of young men — Forrest Gilchrist and Kevin Munro — named after the Olympic National Park trail famous for its views of Mount Olympus and Heart

‘Obnoxious’ entry takes top SEF Film Festival honors

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

“Obnoxious”? Perhaps — but it is an award-winning entry.

A trio of Sequim High School freshmen brought home not only first place overall but also the fanfavorite (literally) “Elkie” award at the 2018 Sequim Education Foundation Film Festival and Art Show, held April 20 at the Sequim High School auditorium.

Ninth-grader Maddy Dietzman, Melissa Porter and Amanda Weller came home

with a bevy of honors for “The Most Obnoxious Place on Earth.” The film won first place overall, with “The Best Quesadilla” (Raymond Lam and Alec Shingleton) taking second place, and Madeline Patterson’s “WE Interact: SHS” in third.

Emma Beeson was awarded the People’s Choice award for the art portion of the festival.

While awards are judged prior to the show by professionals from the art and film industry, film fest audience members have the final say for the people’s choice “Elkie” award by yelling and clapping

for their favorite movie of the night. The video with the highest rating from a sound meter takes the “Elkie” honor.

The trophy is engraved with the current winner’s name and then resides in the trophy case of the winner’s school until next year. “Elkie” as he is fondly known, has taken up residence at three of Sequim’s five schools and will now be housed at Sequim High School, thanks to “The Most Obnoxious Place on Earth.”

In all, 86 students submitted art work or films and

Over a miilion dollars in sales since 1997!

With a cast of more than 30 and a familiar character coming to the stage, Olympic Peninsula Academy’s young students are once again putting on a stage show for the Sequim community — for free.

The academy’s drama classes present OPA’s annual production, this year bringing Disney and Cameron Mackintosh’s “Mary Poppins Jr.” — a musical based the stories of P. L. Travers and the Walt Disney film — to the Sequim High School auditorium stage, 533 N. Sequim Ave. A cast of 31 actors and actresses in grades 6-10 are “all working together to thrill audiences with a

story and songs that everyone will know and love,” production organizers say.

For the two productions, OPA’s younger drama class opens with a short play titled “The Gingerbread Girl” — a continuation of “The Little Gingerbread Man” — featuring a cast of 23 from academy students in grades 1-5.

OPA drama classes are designed to help students “learn the skills of theater arts, confidence and poise, as well as helping them learn to work with a whole team of students with varying ages and abilities,” OPA officials say. Each student gets a part in OPA productions.

No admission is charged, though the academy’s drama program is supported by donations.

BOYS SOCCER

Sequim roars into state Win over Washington gives Wolves district’s fifth seed

BY PIERRE LABOSSIERE and MICHAEL DASHIELL Olympic Peninsula News Group

Sequim survived the consolation bracket and advanced to the Class 2A boys soccer state tournament for the first time since 2010 with a late score in a 2-1 win over Washington on May 12 at Franklin Pierce High School.

Spanish exchange student Hayuk Minano scored the gamewinner with just two minutes remaining in regulation as the Wolves triumphed, earning the fifth seed out of the West Central District Tournament.

The Wolves (13-5-2) face Toppenish (15-3-0), the top seed out of the Central Washington Athletic Conference, this week in the state tournament — likely in the Yakima area.

Sequim coach Dave Brasher said Saturday’s game-winning goal came about after a “great buildup.”

“Adrian Funston took the ball up the left side and Evan James overlapped him and put a cross in (toward the goal),” Brasher said.

Sophomore Ryan Tolberd played decoy on the play, letting the ball scoot past without a touch.

Minano was there at the six-yard mark and punched it past the Washington keeper.

“We finally settled it down and the goal at the end was really nice,” Brasher said. “It was great passing and an excellent finish.”

Brasher said the team celebrated its achievement with an “On to state” chant.

Tolberd put Sequim up 1-0 in the 11th minute, scoring his 22nd goal of the season — breaking his own school single-season mark.

“We played pretty well in the first half,” Brasher said. “We got our first goal in the 11th minute when Funston cut it to Tolberd and he drilled a shot to the right corner.”

The Wolves allowed the equalizer seven minutes into the second half on a “fluky little goal” and the game turned ugly, Brasher said.

“It was the third game in five days for each team and both teams were getting tired. It wasn’t very pretty.”

Wiker, Dietzman take league doubles title Sequim duo headed to districts with top seed

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

A new season, and a new doubles partner — but a familiar road.

After earning a spot at the state 2A tennis tourney in 2017, Sequim sophomore Jessica Dietzman is looking for a second state berth in as many years, this time with freshman partner Kalli Wiker.

The SHS duo cruised through the first day of Olympic League competition at North Kitsap High School on May 9 and took the championship on May 11 to take the league’s top seed to the West Central District tournament set for May 18-19 at the Kitsap County Tennis Center in Bremerton.

Dietzman and Wiker opened with a 6-0, 6-0 straight-set victory over the tournament’s No. 16 seeded duo of Jocelyn Reifenstahl and Emily Metzler of Port Angeles, then knocked off No. 8 seed EuSequim’s Kalli Wiker, left, and Jessica Dietzman celebrate a nice Moran and Victoria Carver of North league doubles championship as they advanced to the West Kitsap in the quarterfinals, and topped Central District tournament after last week’s Olympic League the No. 4 seeded duo, Olympic’s Brooklyn Haro and Sydney Troy, in the semifinals. tourney.

The Sequim combo then beat the duo of Emily Shaleen and Lily Beaulieu from Kingston 6-0, 6-1 in the finals, improving to 12-0 on the season.

In singles play, Sequim’s Isabelle Hugoniot fell one match short in qualifying for districts. She opened with a 6-3, 6-3 win over Port Angeles’ Hailey Horton before dropping a 6-1, 6-4 decision to Makinna Skjonsby of North Mason. Hugoniot rebounded to top Simone Cantral of Bremerton (6-3, 7-5) and teammate Tea Gauthun (6-1, 6-1) before dropping a 6-1, 6-2 decision to Anna Bronchal of North Kitsap for a third or fourth seed to districts.

Gauthun went 2-2, losing only to Hugoniot and defending state 2A singles champ Danya Willis.

In doubles play, Sequim’s McKenna Hastings and Ashley Rosales went 1-2, as did Amanda He and Arlene Law. Last spring, Dietzman and doubles partner Hannah D’Amico took the league’s fourth seed to districts, advanced to state and won one of three matches at the state 2A tournament, held at the Nordstrom Tennis Center in Seattle.

Murray Bingham and the Wolves are headed to districts with plenty of momentum on their side.

Sequim’s boys and girls tracksters earned 20 entries in the West Central District meet this week after strong efforts at the sub-district meet in Bremerton on May 12.

Bingham, a junior, won a pair of events, edging teammate BINGHAM Alec Shingleton in the 800-meter run with a personal record 1:59.28 — the sixth-best 800 2A mark in the state, according to athletic.net — and added a win in the 1,600-meter race with a 4:33 effort.

He helped Sequim’s boys place second out of seven teams in the standings with 118 points, behind league champ North Kitsap (168).

Running for cleaner water Marathon team seeks support for new wells in Nicaragua

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

One local group looks to run and walk its way to ensure those in need have clean, safe drinking water.

Team Living Water, led by Martin Murray and 29 other Sequim, Port Angeles and Bellingham residents, plans to participate in the June 3 North Olympic Discovery Marathon to raise funds to support building and refurbishing clean water wells for Nicaraguans.

With less than a month to go before the race, the team has raised $11,500 in sponsorships so far, which Murray said supports drilling one new well and refurbishing two others.

“The more money we raise, the more clean, safe water we can provide,” Murray said.

They hope by June they’ll have enough to support drilling one more well.

Prior to his first organized marathon, Murray and his home congregation Dungeness Community Church have partnered with Living Water International, a Houstonbased 501(c)(3) non-profit, for six years to help pay to drill new wells.

Since 1990, Living Water has helped drill more than 19,000 wells while educating impoverished residents in 17 countries about hygiene education and pump repair. Through its support, Dungeness Community Church’s congregation helped

drill/fix 20 wells so far. To help with their efforts, Murray and Rosalie Di Magio visited Nicaragua in 2016.

“It was moving,” Murray said.

“After we drilled and pumped some water, I got to stand in front of the village and tell them why we were doing it. There wasn’t a dry eye in the place.”

Church, community support Murray said his church first became involved following a movement called the Advent Conspiracy, which continues to encourage Christians to spend less on presents at Christmas and focus more on loving and supporting family members and others in different ways, such as providing clean, safe water. Participating in the marathon is a new avenue for Murray and others from the church to continue that effort.

“We organized this team to raise awareness of the world water crisis and to support the extraordinary work that Living Water International is doing to assist those in need,” Murray said.

Kate Hall, who worked with Murray prior to his retirement at Sequim’s Pacific Northwest National Laboratory’s Marine Sciences Laboratory, said she’s participating because she believes Living Water isn’t creating dependency but rather “educating and empowering people to remain in a healthy situation.”

So far, she’s raised more than $2,000 for the group, which is the

June 8. About 45 players turned out for the four-person scramble format tourney, said Director of Golf/General Manager Bill Shea at The Cedars.

Tying for first place in the tournament was the team of Larry Brown, Todd Irwin, Darren Stephens and Rob Thompson at

15-under par, tied with a squad of Joe Luce, Courtland Middleberger, Danny Romero and Aaron Staeben.

Taking long drive honors was Middleberger in the men’s division, Brooke Griffin in the women’s.

Gary Kettel had a hole-in-one on hole No. 11.

At the finish line, they’ll have a canopy and a table with more information.

Even though the race has yet to start, Murray said he’d like to do it again and he’s already brainstorming ideas for 2019.

Dr. Brooksby, I have heard you talk about using a CT scan before placing implants, but many of the places that I call indicate that they only need an x-ray, not the more expensive CT scan. What is the difference between the two and why do you recommend one over the other?

Dr. Brooksby does all adult dentistry, including checkups, cleanings, fillings, extractions, crowns, bridges, dentures and implants.

Call now for an exam and your free CT scan.

CT SCAN VS PANO An xray taken by a machine that goes around your head and creates a two dimensional view of your jaws is sometimes called a “Pano”.

It takes an average value of the scan and therefore magnifies the area by about 25%. This distortion can make it look like you have more bone than you actually have. Because it is two dimensional, it is unable to show you the width of the bone. It is possible for bone that is only the thickness of a matchbook cover to look like it is the same as bone that is as thick as your thumb.

A CT scan machine can look just like a pano machine, but the CT has the ability to make a three dimensional image that has no distortion or magnification. It allows us to look at anything in the jaws. We can look at the sinuses, the spine, the nose or the jaw bone.

We can measure the height, width, thickness and density of the bone in any area. We can precisely see where the nerves and sinuses are, and where the bone has unusual shapes that might adversely impact our planned treatment. This ability allows us to determine, before we do anything, if the person is a candidate for implants, if there are tumors or if everything is exactly as we need it to be for providing the optimum care. We can tell if the bone is soft and will require longer healing times, or if it is hard enough to support implants in a shorter period of time.

FREE CT SCAN WHEN WE PLACE THE IMPLANTS About fifteen years ago, the first dental CT scan machines were created for use in a dental office environment. When I first saw this CT scan machine, I realized that this was the future of implant dentistry. I bought the eighteenth machine made, becoming the first dentist in Nevada to have this technology available for my patients. These machines are more accurate than medical CT scans and use much less radiation. We provide our CT scans for free if we are doing the work. If your dentist would like a CT scan before he works on you, we can provide that for $300.

FASTPITCH

Wolves edge Riders in district warm-up Sequim knocks off PA for first time since 2014 season

BY PIERRE LABOSSIERE

Olympic League standings (final)

Olympic Peninsula News Group

Sequim softball gets some bragging rights, while Port Angeles gets to keep its league unbeaten streak intact.

Playing a fill-in game on April 7 so Sequim could have a Senior’s Night game — one that does not count as a league game — the Wolves, who nearly beat the Roughriders earlier this year, finally got the better of their North Olympic Peninsula rival in a 6-5 victory.

The Wolves scored three runs in the fifth and one in the sixth to pull the game out.

It was only Port Angeles’ second loss of the year. It was also the first time the Wolves had beaten the Riders since 2014. The Riders had beaten the Wolves 10 straight games. However, because it was an extra non-league game added to the schedule, it was not a league loss. So, Port Angeles maintains its 46-game league winning streak.

One streak is broken. The other remains alive.

“It was a great game to coach and get ready for districts. Great

pitching and defense. Key hits at the right moments, and it’s always fun to play Port Angeles,” Sequim coach Tim Lusk said.

Sequim opens district tourney play against the South Puget Sound’s No. 4-seeded team on May 18 at the Regional Athletic Complex in Lacey. Twelve of the teams are competing for five state 2A tournament berths at the double-elimination district tourney.

“Their undefeated league streak is still intact so we’ll have to work on that next season,” Lusk said.

Brasher said Chris Morgan and Mathew Craig played well on the back line and Liam Stevenson was solid in goal.

Brasher named senior midfielder Liam Harris the team’s man of the match for his great play in the middle.

Earlier in the week, Sequim eliminated Olympic League champion Kingston from the district tournament with a strong defensive performance in a 2-1 victory on May 10 in Silverdale..

It was Sequim’s second win in three games against the Buccaneers this season.

striking out five. The Wolves’ defense also played error-less ball behind Jones.

The Roughriders came in to the game averaging 13.5 runs a game over their past eight games.

Port Angeles coach Randy Steinman credited Jones with pitching an “outstanding game.”

At the plate, Latisha Robideau and Jayla Julmist were both 2-for3 with a double and an RBI, while Isabelle Dennis was 2-for-4 with a run scored. Bobbi Sparks had a double and a run scored, while Jessie Dominguez had a hit, a run, an RBI and a walk.

For the Roughriders, Natalie Steinman was 3 for 4 with three RBIs, while Sierra Robinson was 2 for 4 with two runs scored.

Jaida Cargo was 3 for 3 with a double and two runs scored, while Erin Edwards had a double and an RBI. Callie Hall pitched three innings for Port Angeles, giving up two runs on three hits and four walks, while striking out two.

Sequim (6-6 in Olympic League, 8-12 overall) added a 13-5 non-league victory at Coupeville on May 9 — details were not available.

(on April 27) that cost us the league title, so to knock them out in convincing fashion did feel pretty good,” Brasher said.

“I thought we had most of the play during the game and we scored early in the sixth minute.”

Tolberd set up the first score, challenging the Kingston keeper on a 50/50 ball that Minano collected and netted for a 1-0 Sequim lead.

“Our speed was showing early,” Brasher said. “Ryan had another chance at a goal but put it wide and the game settled down a bit after that and (Kingston) started to play better.”

The Buccaneers tied it up in the 29th minute, scoring on a long free kick. But Sequim reclaimed the lead for good six minutes into the second half, with Minano launching a corner kick that Tolberd deflected for the game-winner.

Brasher said the Wolves didn’t just sit back and defend their one-goal lead, but looked for an insurance score in the game’s final 34 minutes.

“We were trying not to repeat what happened against Highline (in their previous district game, a 3-2 loss),” Brasher said.

“We tried to be aggressive and go after the third goal and we had chances.”

Those chances included a Funston shot that went wide at 50 minutes and a Mike McAleer shot that nearly found net at 64 minutes.

Sequim’s defense held fast — led by Craig, who Brasher named as his man of the match, and Morgan.

“Mathew Craig had a great game in the back,” Brasher said. “He was organizing the defense and winning balls in the air. He was excited. Chris Morgan came into the game and had a couple of nice clear-outs.”

Close loss in semis After knocking off Orting in the district opener on May 5, Sequim jumped out to a lead against No. 2-seeded Highline in the district semifinals on May 8 but wound up on the losing end of a 3-2 decision.

Highline (13-2-1 coming into the game) got on the board early with a goal on a breakaway by Edwin Ochoa. The Wolves responded with a goal in the 15th minute by Liam Harris on a long pass from

James, who picked up the assist.

In the 32nd minute, the Wolves took a 2-1 lead. The score began with a shot

by Tolberd that the goalie punched toward Minano, who then crossed the ball to McAleer for a goal.

In the second half, the Pirates scored a pair of goals and kept the Wolves off the board.

“We were a little tentative in the second half. I think we were trying to protect the lead,” Brasher said.

In the 61st minute, a penalty was called on the Wolves in the box. Brasher said he isn’t sure what the penalty was called for, but the Pirates converted the kick to tie it at 2-2. Highline came back with another goal in the 74th minute with a free kick near the corner kick area that was crossed in front of the goal for a header

by Jack Madsen.

Sequim very nearly tied it in the waning minutes. The Wolves’ Minano headed a pass past the goalie, but the ball caught the crossbar and stayed out.

“We had good pressure at the end, we just couldn’t quite get it done,” said Brasher.

Wolves, Vikes advance Out of four Olympic League entries, Sequim and North Kitsap were the survivors of district play, moving on to the state 2A tourney.

North Kitsap beat Clover Park, Washington and Fife in succession to take the No. 3 district seed to state.

Port Angeles beat Renton 5-1 in the opener but fell to eventual district champion Franklin Pierce 1-0, then lost to Washington in penalty kicks (6-5). Kingston lost both of their district games, a 3-1 decision to Fife before getting knocked out

by Sequim.

really well, the grandchild who is really into cars is there on the spot. If I have a problem with my cell phone, I just hand it to a grandchild to fix.

I have older children where the same thing is true. I received a questionable phone solicitation the other day. When I told my son, he went to my phone and figured out the phone number who had called and looked it up. It didn’t sound good so he called them and canceled the appointment I had made; I was relieved.

We minimize the vast number of ways our children help us. We do this even though we all know how important it is for our children to feel good about themselves and what they can do. Maybe we need to change that.

Maybe we need to rely on our children to help us. Maybe we need to just ask them to help.

But for sure, we need to let our children know how helpful they are.

GREYWOLF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Rep. Steve Tharinger (D-24th District) recently stopped for a tour of the new kindergarten classrooms at Greywolf Elementary School.

Tharinger chairs the House Capital Budget Committee, which controls the state’s construction budget and provided funding for the construction of these classrooms using cross-laminated timber (CLT). This new, renewable technology can take the place of steel and concrete while speeding up construction.

Tharinger is working on updating the school construction funding and code requirements and is seeking input from school leaders.

The new classrooms at Greywolf were built as a pilot project to see how CLT works in classrooms.

Greywolf Elementary School celebrated its “Lunch Lady Heroes” at on Friday, May 4. They work hard each day to prepare breakfast and hot lunches for our Greywolf students and staff.

The school honored regular staffers Kim Sharp and Kristi Minkoff, along with substitute Maria Cisne- Students were given the task of ros (who normally works at Sequim choosing whether their famous person would best be described as High School). creative, persistent, or hard workFifth-grade students from Jenni- ing and backing up their opinion fer Lopez’s class were recent recipi- with evidence from their research.

Here are more of their essays: ents of biography books donated by Janet Thomas of Sequim. The stu“Muhammad Ali: The Greatest dents each chose a famous person to read about and selected a second Persistent Man”

By Jamison Gray source to further their research.

The best word to describe Muhammad Ali is persistent. The reason why I say this is that in the book called Who Was Muhammad Ali it says, “Cassius won eight fights in 1961 and won six fights in 1962.

He never lost a game.” this proves that he is persistent because it is very hard to win 14 times in a row and go undefeated for two years straight. That is very hard to do and you have to be very persistent to do that.

Another example of persistent is his smack talk. Here is proof that he has been talking since he started boxing, “Talking is something that Cassius had been very good at.

Even as a teenager, he had not been afraid to boast about his skills.” This proves that the time he started boxing he had smack talked, that shows how long he can be persistent.

The last reason that I say Muhammad Ali is persistent is that, he didn’t abandon his religion, (which was Islam) even though his fans and family didn’t like him changing religions, this is what I found on Encyclopedia Britannica in an article called “Muhammad Ali”, “Though millions of people, including his family, disagreed with him, Muhammad Ali stuck to his beliefs.”

This just goes to show that even Greywolf Elementary School honors its “Lunch Lady Heroes” staffers on through the toughest times you can May 4.

High school students can earn a varsity letter for volunteer efforts SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF Sequim students making their community better are getting some extra kudos — and a badge of pride — for their efforts.

United Way of Clallam County announced in late April their Youth United program is now established at Sequim High School.

Youth United is a program that encourages students to give back to the community and awards

them with a varsity letter in community service for their efforts.

High school students who complete 145 or more hours of community service between April 1, 2018-March 31, 2019, are eligible to earn the varsity letter. They must have at least 50 hours of non-school related volunteering, 10 hours of school-related volunteering and have at least a 2.0 grade-pointaverage.

Students will apply for the letters,

which will be awarded at the end of the school year. Sequim High School students should contact Sequim Sean O’Mera, Sequim High School ASB advisor, for Youth United applications.

The Youth United program started in the Sequim School District with the help of SHS senior, Haelee Andres and O’Mera, a teacher at Sequim High.

“Haelee was the main driving force behind bringing this pro-

famous female pilots in history”

By Kirra Henderson I think the word that best represents my famous person Amelia Earhart is hard-working. I think she is hard working because she worked very hard on learning how to fly a plane and became a very very famous pilot. To do that she had to work very hard to achieve her goals even when she was going through a tough time. In the book Who was Amelia Earhart it states on page 78, “Her father had died. It was a very hard sad time for Amelia. She missed her father. She also was under a lot of pressure.” This explains how hard working she is for not giving up even when her dad died.

The next reason why I think Amelia Earhart is hard working because in the Encyclopedia Britannica article “Amelia Earhart,” on paragraph 6 it said, “Determined to justify the renown that her 1928 crossing had brought her, Earhart crossed the Atlantic alone on May 20-21, 1932.”

This proves that she was working really hard to be able to cross the Atlantic alone. Last but not least I think Amelia was hard working because in the book, Who was Amelia Earhart it said, “By 1929, Amelia was the best known pilot in America.” She worked very hard to be able to be a well-known pilot.

This is why I think Amelia Earhart is hard working. gram to Sequim High School,” O’Mera said. “She is the senior class Senator and a four-year member of the high school student government.

In addit ion, she is a leader in the school’s Interact Club, a club that partners with local nonprofits to complete service projANDRES ects and do other good deeds for the community.

“Haelee advocated for, initiated, and helped install the Youth United lettering for community service program at Sequim High School. The whole community will benefit thanks to Haelee’s

As the carnival sets up in the school’s “back yard” and others prepare for the Sequim Irrigation Festival, Haller’s fourth-grade students in Jaysa Hill’s and Jesse Klinger’s classes are wrapping up their spring testing and looking forward to some end-of-the-year experiences.

One such experience includes some hands-on learning off campus. At the beginning of the school year, students attend the annual River Festival at Railroad Bridge Park. This trip provides students with an opportunity to learn more about their local watershed and ecosystem.

In the winter, fourth-graders visited the Port Townsend Marine Science Center, where they spent their time learning about marine ecosystems and food chains. The students studied the different types of marine wildlife and discussed the positive and negative effects that people can have on the natural habitats of these animals.

Now they students are preparing to visit Olympic National Park. Last week, park rangers visited Haller classrooms to share about local interacting ecosystems and the flora and fauna that live in each one. In the meantime, several students have been researching the different regions of Washington State to provide additional background knowledge to their classmates.

Following a field trip to the park, students will be applying their learning to their studies of Washington State history, their final unit for both literacy and social studies this school year.

“The students have grown significantly this year and we are looking forward to these final six weeks of learning, and of course, summer break,” Hill says.

SEQUIM HIGH SCHOOL Sequim High School’s Scholarship Awards Ceremony will be held at 6 p.m. Wednesday, May 30, in the auditorium. Students who have received scholarships will be recognized during this ceremony.

Learn about peony varieties at Sequim garden society work party SEQUIM GAZETTE STAFF The community is invited to learn all about the power of the peony at the next Sequim Botanical Garden Society work party.

The Sequim-based group invites community members to learn about peony varieties and their care from society president Jean Pier at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 19, at the Sequim Botanical Terrace Garden near the James Center for the Performing Arts band shell just north of Carrie Blake Community Park.

Attendees will learn about the varieties of peonies and growing healthy peony plants that thrive and bloom from May through June. As a special offer, peony plants will be available, each for a $10 donation to the society.

Participants are encouraged to work alongside the garden society members caring for the new peony bed, or simply observe the activity and see significant renovation underway at the garden.

Pier, a former Master Gardener who has a PhD in geochemistry, designed the new peony bed at the Sequim garden.

close to your house, consider putting the containers on a wagon or cart and “following the sun,” moving them from sunny spot to sunny spot throughout the day.

Water your plants so that the soil remains moist but not soggy. Because soil in pots usually dries out faster than in the ground, check your pots frequently. During dry periods you might need to water daily.

In general, berries are not heavy feeders but frequent watering can leach nitrogen from the soil. For strawberries, raspberries and blackberries apply a balanced fertilizer (with equal amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) in early and late spring.

Blueberries prefer a fertilizer that provides nitrogen in the form of ammonium such as ammonium sulfate.

Although the smaller varieties recommended for container planting might not require staking or trellising,

Karlena Brailey, Nutrition Coordinator for Clallam County’s WSU Extension and A ndra Smith, Executive Director of the Sequim Food Bank, will talk to home gardeners SMITH about ways they can help to fight hunger in our community on Saturday, May 19.

The presentation begins at 10 a.m. at the Woodcock Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, Sequim. The event is free and open to the public; no preregistration is required.

Accessing adequate fruits and vegetables can be even harder for the 15

your container grown berries will need pruning similar to their full-sized counterparts.

For example, second year canes need to be pruned on all raspberries and blackberries after the harvest and all blueberries need removal of older, non-producing canes to encourage the production of new canes.

Finally, plants in containers are at a greater risk of cold injury than plants in the ground because the roots are more exposed. In winter, move your container to an unheated garage or wrap the pot with bubble wrap or newspaper to protect the roots.

Growing berries in containers is both fun and rewarding. With the right variety and a little forethought, you’ll soon be picking plump, juicy berries from right outside your door!

Swing fore Spring !

TIPS FOR A SAFER GOLF GAME With golfing season here, it’s time for 50+ golfers, baby boomers and seniors to learn how to adapt to the loss of some of the range, mobility, and flexibility that comes with aging.

Thankfully there are also some benefits to aging – like retirement and more free time to golf.

HYDRATE | Golf is a physical activity with plenty of sun exposure. Golfers need to hydrate regularly while walking through 18 holes.

AWARENESS | When preparing to swing, make sure no one else is close by so they do not get hit by the club. Help others avoid injury by yelling the traditional warning “Fore” when a ball goes in a direction it should not.

DRIVE CAREFULLY | Drive carefully if using a golf cart. Like any moving vehicle, carts can be dangerous and cause injury. Follow all course guidelines when using carts.

STRETCH | Though golf is not a high-intensity sport, it is possible to pull and injure muscles. Stretch both the upper and lower body before the round to prepare for the walking and sudden movement that comes with swinging clubs.

SHOOTER is a rather shy girl that is looking for an adult-only home. Shooter LOVES playing fetch and tug, and she would LOVE a nice fenced yard. Shooter needed to be surrendered to us because she did not like having “strangers” coming over to her house. You could imagine that Shooter is pretty confused as to why she had to be taken away from her home when all she was doing was protecting it! She thought she was doing the right thing, but it just wasn’t a good set up for her former family.

www.stinkydogubathe.com SATIVA is a tender-hearted girl who really needs a home with a soft touch. She is NOT a dog that you can be tough with because she will shut down. You need to go slow with her and show her that you wont hurt her, and then she will become your best friend! Sativa has tested good with other dogs, but she is NOT GOOD with other small animals. We think she’d be OK with older kids that wont be too rough or loud.

Sativa needs a home where she can relax.

BIRCH PEREIRA & THE GIN JOINTS

Born out of a love of the early years of swing, Americana and rock ‘n’ roll, Birch Pereira & the Gin Joints is a band whose sound transports you to the time of speakeasies, honky-tonks and roadhouses.

With upright bassist and vocalist Birch Pereira at its center, the band features skilled and versatile musicians who share the love of American song traditions and a desire to offer a fresh angle on them.

The band’s debut album, “Dream Man,” was released independently and received the Earshot Jazz Golden Ear Award for “Northwest Jazz Recording of the Year” in 2016.

The band also has been nominated for 2017 Vocalist of the Year in the Earshot Jazz Golden Ear awards.

Fans, critics and DJs have delighted in Birch Pereira’s “old soul,” tenor voice, the group’s new, stripped-down arrangements of musical gems from the past and Pereira’s ever growing repertoire of original, yet period-evoking material.

CAROLYN CRUSO

Carolyn Cruso is an acclaimed multi-instrumentalist and composer.

Cruso has toured widely in the United States and Europe, as well as producing eight CDs during that time.

She is equally at home on hammered dulcimer, flute, guitar and vocals and performs a diverse array of original tunes and songs as well as traditional material.

Cruso’s instrumental compositions are mainly for the hammered dulcimer and are inspired by her strong connection to nature as well as her extensive travel and the cultures she’s encountered along the way.

Her unusual and lyrical approach to the dulcimer especially delights audiences and has even won over curmudgeons who swore they hated hammered dulcimer!

Cruso celebrates the release of her latest instrumental recording, “Migrations — A Retrospective (19891995),” which draws from four early albums she made with the late great Robert Almblade.

“Migrations” was chosen Best Instrumental CD of 2013 by the Indie Acoustic Project.

CAROLYN CRUSO Connolly was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland where his dexterity on the accordion earned him a place with the established Celtic ensemble, Anam, at the age of 17.

For the past few years, Connolly has been touring as a member of internationally acclaimed Irish band Solas and is featured on their latest CD “All These Years.”

Neill is a songwriter and guitarist who tours extensively in the U.S., Japan and Europe.

CLAUDE BOURBON

CLAUDE BOURBON

Claude Bourbon is known throughout Europe and America for guitar performances that take blues, Spanish and Middle Eastern stylings into uncharted territories.

There is an almost endless amalgam of different influences in Bourbon’s playing, all melting into each other, as he moves from classical openings, across a whole continent of cultural roots, from the Balearics to the Balkans, and then across to the Mississippi Delta. >> FESTIVAL PERFORMERS continued on Page 10

Neill has a long history in the traditional folk world having worked with masters of Scots/Irish music such as Kevin Burke, Johnny Cunningham and Martin Hayes.

SUNDAY It was a sad day for Port Angeles, not all that many years ago, when Abby Mae and the Homeschool Boys played their last show.

One of Port Angeles’ favorite bands, they combined the timeless tradition of old time music with Gaelic, blues and gospel. Silly, sultry, spiritual and heartbreaking, Abby Mae and the Homeschool Boys was one foot-stomping band.

So it was with great excitement to learn that this great band has been resurrected with one of Port Angeles’ musical heroes, fiddler and vocalist Chandra Johnson.

Already well-known as a member of San Francisco’s great Sam Chase Band and Port Angeles’ Crushwater, her newest initiative with the reformed Homeschool Boys is something you don’t want to miss.

Musical synergy is taking two great musical entities and joining them together to create something even better than the sum of its parts.

GRANDPA’S GRANDKIDS

Back in the 1950s or whatnot, the grandparents of Enoch Bowlby (guitar and vocals), Jacob Wright (bass), Collin McAvinchey (mandolin), Andy Hokit (banjo), Ashley Reis (vocals) and Eric Tonnenson (guitar and vocals) were at a crossroads.

The 2018 Juan de Fuca Festival in Port Angeles was looming on the horizon, and these folks knew that event organizers would be in dire need of a bouncy string band to be part of the festivities.

“Tasty folk originals intermixed with hard-driving bluegrass standards aren’t just going to play themselves,” said McAvinchey’s grandpa.

It was in this moment they realized that the only group with enough raw talent for the gig had to be comprised of their own yet-to-be-born grandchildren.

So, the group set upon the task of making children who would in turn make more children to play bluegrass shows and excite Port Angeles crowds time and time again. The plan worked perfectly.

Originally hailing from Sequim, the boys from High Divide have been making music together in various forms for over a decade, and recently finished recording their debut album.

“I am an African girl, well I know where I’m coming from, and I know who I want to be” is the defiant soulanthem that jumpstarted Afro-Folk singer and songwriter Naomi Wachira onto a whole new path and calling.

These words, from the title track of her first EP “African Girl” in 2012, paved the way for this Kenyan-born, Seattle-based artist who is determined to make a contribution in the world by offering music that is poignant, hopeful and life-giving.

Five years later comes her sophomore album “Song of Lament.”

With music that is both uplifting and somber, there is no doubt Wachira is determined to create a niche in the world and perhaps inch us closer to one another as we remember our shared humanity.

Like the two predecessors she has long admired, Tracy Chapman and Miriam Makeba, she hopes that she can contribute to making the world a better place.

PEARL DJANGO

With a performance history spanning over two decades, Pearl Django endures as one of the most highly regarded Hot Club style groups working today.

Although the band’s roots are firmly in the music made famous by Django Reinhardt and Stephan Grappelli, its extensive repertoire includes traditional jazz classics and original compositions.

Pearl Django has performed at festivals, dances and nightspots throughout the U.S. and abroad.

It has played at the prestigious Festival Django Reinhardt in Samois sur Seine and have been featured on NPR’s “All Things Considered.”

The band’s signature style is marked by pristine and dexterous string work, colors of Bal Musette, the steady pulse of rhythm guitar and an unmistakable swing that delights audiences of all musical sensibilities.

Throughout the years, Pearl Django has cultivated a devoted and enthusiastic following and they continue to play to packed houses wherever they perform.

SATURDAY

ROSIE & THE RIVETERS

From Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Rosie & the Riveters never planned to get political.

But opening a newspaper or watching the news these days made it impossible to see the status of women around the world and stay silent.

The result is Ms. Behave — a collection of gritty, sultry, vintage-inspired folk anthems that paint a portrait of a woman’s voice in a man’s world. A quick read through song titles like “Gotta Get Paid,” “Let ’em, Talk” and “I Wanna be King” gives an idea of what they have to say.

Rosie & the Riveters’ unmistakable visual branding of red lipstick, pin curls, and overtly feminine costuming may be deceiving, but this is not a throwback band.

Ms. Behave embraces the feminist undertone of their moniker, Rosie the Riveter, in a way they hadn’t previously; one that allows them to shed their please-all attitudes, take a purposeful stance and dare to be themselves.

Every word, note and movement in their live show is done purposefully to empower and challenge.

SUNDAY

THE ROWAN BROTHERS

The Rowan Brothers, Chris and Loren, play acoustic roots/Americana with tight brotherly harmonies and haunting melodies on guitars & lap steel/dobro.

The music is an eclectic mix of the sound of modern day Everly Brothers meets the Beatles, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and more.

Lorin’s song “Soldier of the Cross” is the title track of country artist Ricky Skaggs’ Grammy winning CD. Chris’s song, “If I Only Could” charted 59 on Billboard Top 100 for The Rowans (including brother Peter Rowan) back in the 1970s while on Warner/Asylum Records.

They are an international touring act as a duo as well as with their brother Peter.

Chris and Lorin have shared the stage with Phil Lesh, Leftover Salmon, Steve Miller, Little Feat, Jerry Garcia, Levon Helm and Huey Lewis, to name a few.

Their most recent CD is the anthology “Now & Then.”

Special guest Ken Emerson, a virtuoso lap steel/dobro player has recorded with Todd Rundgren and Donald Fagen (Steely Dan).

He’s also well known for Hawaiian slack key guitar and was part of the first compilation Hawaiian Grammy winning CD. SATURDAY

ROYAL JELLY JIVE

Few bands have the ability to evoke an old-school throwback vibe and yet sound entirely fresh and new at the same time.

Royal Jelly Jive is one of those bands.

Combining elements of soul, rock, swing and hip-hop, Royal Jelly Jive shakes up every dance-party and grooves harder than your typical rock n’ roll band dares to go.

It is all fronted by enigmatic singer Lauren Bjelde, whose sultry voice and songwriting lands somewhere between Amy Winehouse and Tom Waits.

The infectious sounds of swingin’ horns, gritty keys and a bumpin’ rhythm section carry a crowd into bliss — creating an unforgettable live experience that will leave you wanting more.

Since forming in San Francisco’s Boom Boom Room in the summer of 2013, Royal Jelly Jive has quickly ascended to become one of the Bay Area’s most anticipated acts.

Playing high-energy shows and festivals in cities and towns all across the West Coast, they have captivated the ears and hearts of almost all who hear them.

Royal Jelly Jive will be performing three shows for area students at Port Angeles High School.

SCOTT COSSU

Scott Cossu is an internationally known composer, pianist and recording artist.

He was up front when New Age was just beginning more than 30 years ago.

Cossu was one of the first Windham Hill Artists to join with founders Will Ackerman and Alex Degrassi on their new label out of Palo Alto, Calif. He signed onto the label the same day as Michael Hedges and they both joined George Winston, who was new to the label himself.

Cossu affectionately calls his music heavy mental or “Cosmic National Geographic,” even though he was one of the grandfathers of the New Age scene.

Much of his work exhibits departures from New Age music and includes a melodic blend of jazz, classical and ethnic influences.

Cossu has enjoyed great success at the top of the jazz charts and has sold out shows from England to Japan, Chile and Germany.

He will be joined by Lonnie Mardis on guitar and Steve Banks on drums.

SUNDAY

THE SAM CHASE

Over the past several years, The Sam Chase has emerged as perhaps Port Angeles’ favorite out-of-town band.

Equally popular in the Bay Area, the band is a twotime winner as “Best Band” in SF Weekly’s “Best of the Bay Readers Poll.”

Hailing from the hills of San Francisco, Sam Chase and his band, whom he lovingly refers to as The Untraditional, take to stages all over the country.

Performances have a virulent and frenetic passion which many history buffs might liken to the Norse warriors known as The Berserkers, who were known to have fought battles with an uncontrollable, trance-like fury.

In 2012 came the release of his long awaited first studio album, “The Sam Chase Will Lead Us To Victory,” which took the group all across the United States.

The cry came for more, so they released a new album, “The Sam Chase Will Never Die.” MONDAY, AFTER HOURS SUNDAY

TILLER’S FOLLY

TOO LOOSE CAJUN/ZYDECO BAND

The ever-popular Too Loose Cajun/Zydeco Band is ready to rock with their infectious brand of Cajun and zydeco dance music from Southwestern Louisiana.

With their traditional Cajun/zydeco instrumentation, this band will take you on a rollicking journey into the heart of the Louisiana bayou with two fiddles, accordion, electric and acoustic guitars, piano, the traditional Louisiana rub-board, and a kickin’ rhythm section.

With their vocal harmonies tart and sweet, male and female, they are perennial favorites on the zydeco stage at the Portland Waterfront Blues Festival as well as many other parties and festivals.

So come on down, and don’t forget your dancin’ shoes.

SUNDAY

ventions of popular music.

The band features pure and thrillingly elastic vocals with catchy arrangements of bass, guitar, mandolin and accordion that draw from jazz, classical, folk and pop influences.

Inspired by artists such as Joanna Newsome, Bright Eyes, the Decemberists and the Punch Brothers, and forged from a sonically adventurous acoustic music scene of Canada’s west coast, West My Friend is proving to be a key part of a new generation of grassroots folk music.

With the release of their third and latest album “Quiet Hum,” West My Friend builds admirably on the body of great music coming out of Victoria and across British Columbia.

WEST MY FRIEND

JUAN DE FUCA FESTIVAL OF THE ARTS v May 2018

852113420

A festival favorite, it’s been seven long years since Tiller’s Folly last joined us.

Tiller’s Folly is the Pacific Northwest’s critically acclaimed, internationally travelled acoustic power trio, planted at the forefront of a bold new movement in progressive roots music.

A highly regarded Canadian Celtic group turned historians, this award-winning ensemble has shifted to what might be more aptly termed acoustic roots music.

Principle songwriter and vocalist Bruce Coughlan is a true collector of songs and a multi-faceted talent — fated to be recognized as one of the great Canadian songwriters in the league of Gordon Lightfoot and Stan Rogers.

Fiddler and multi-instrumentalist Nolan Murray is an Oregon State Fiddle Champion, top 10 Grand Master Champion and top 10 U.S. National Fiddle Champion.

The bassist Laurence Knight is an expressive musician who adds his soulful, rhythmic signature to the Tiller’s Folly blend.

WHISKEY MINSTRELS

Award-winning songsmith Bruce Coughlan and awardwinning multi-instrumentalist Nolan Murray team up to share music and stories from four decades on the road.

Their music reflects years spent drawing influences from the tap-roots of roots music.

At times you’ll hear Celtic influences and stories from their times in the highlands of Scotland. At other times, the bluegrass and country slues of their journeys through the South. Songs from all the roads in-between.

Stories that speak of a rich and colorful landscape that has been laid out for these talented artists to interpret.

Coughlan is a multi-faceted talent and great Canadian songwriter while Murray is a top 10 U.S. Grand Masters and top 10 U.S. National Fiddle Champion.

Coughlan and Murray also are two-thirds of Port Angeles favorites Tiller’s Folly.

This performance is sponsored by Sherie Maddox.

SUNDAY

WORLD’S FINEST

An eclectic five-piece band combining Americana, ska, dub and bluegrass, World’s Finest banks on its ability to transcend genres of all kinds.

String-centric and bluegrass-inspired compositions seamlessly transition into three-dimensional psytrance, funk and dub soundscapes, leaving their audience with a full-circle experience of emotion and dance.

World’s Finest’s appreciation for punk and ska can be found peppered throughout its shows and albums, made evident by up-tempo, high-energy offerings.

Never happy to settle, the band is always looking to push through boundaries and challenge themselves.

With five albums under their belt, the band is still firing on all cylinders.

World’s Finest has hit the West Coast festival scene hard, making appearances at High Sierra, Northwest String Summit, Summer Meltdown, Oregon Country Fair, 4 Peaks, Symbiosis and more.
