Big Apples, Big Business
How Washington Became the Apple State For adults.
Friday, April 11, 3:30pm Vashon Park District, Ober Park Exercise Room, 17130 Vashon HWY SW, Vashon, WA 98070
Join Amanda L. Van Lanen, Professor of History at Lewis-Clark State College, to explore how Washington became the top apple producing state in the country. Many regions in the West attempted to grow apples, but in Washington, big apples became big business thanks to the work of scientists, investors, irrigators, railroad corporations, marketers and apple growers.
How does the history of Washington apples reflect larger changes happening in the American food system–changes that continue to affect our environment and the way we eat today?
Sponsored by Humanities Washington and the Vashon Park District.

Engaging in swim lessons has been linked to enhanced cognitive abilities, including improved language and math skills. Learning to swim is highly recommended for people living on islands.
Aquafit,
short for “aquatic fitness,” is a form of exercise performed in water. It typically involves aerobic activities, resistance training, and stretching exercises designed to improve cardiovascular health, muscular strength, and flexibility. Aquafit classes are conducted in shallow water and often incorporate various equipment such as flotation devices, water dumbbells, or noodles to add resistance or support. The buoyancy of water reduces the impact on joints, making aquafit ideal for individuals with joint pain, arthritis, or recovering from injuries.

Vashon Park District & Quartermaster Yacht Club’s Jr. Sailing Camp
Per Session Fee: $435
Date: 6 sessions July 7- Aug 14
Location: Quartermaster Yacht Club 23428 Vashon Highway SW For Ages: 8 - 12 Beginner & 12-18 Junior
Partner Classes - Outdoor Recreation
The Bruce Haulman Junior Sailing Program is dedicated to teaching sailing skills to kids aged 8 - 18. Established around 1999 by local historian and educator Bruce Haulman, the program operates under the Vashon Park District and is hosted at the Quartermaster Yacht Club. It offers fourday sailing camps during the summer months, typically from early July through mid-August. These camps provide instruction on 14 to 15-foot sailboats equipped with main and jib sails.
A notable feature of the program is its emphasis on mentorship; teenagers start as apprentices around age 14, achieve instructor certification by 16, and gain experience in boat maintenance, teaching, and leadership. This dual focus on youth sailing education and instructor development has been a cornerstone of the program since its inception.
Kids learn to sail on the following QYC craft:
14.2
14
The Capri 14.2 is a small sailing dinghy known for being a stable, easy-to-sail boat that is great for beginners and casual sailors.
The Hunter 14 is a small recreational dinghy designed for easy handling and fun day sailing.
The Club 420 (C420) is a high-performance, double-handed sailing dinghy designed for youth and collegiate racing. It is one of the most popular training and racing boats in North America. 5 JY 15s
The JY 15 is a high-performance, double-handed sailing dinghy designed for both racing and recreational sailing.

Captain joe wubbold III, USCG (ret.)
Vashon Park District’s volunteers help us thrive, and few volunteers exemplify this spirit more than Captain Joseph H. Wubbold III, a retired U.S. Coast Guard captain. Known to many as “Captain Joe,” he has spent years enriching our island through community service—serving on boards, hosting his own radio show on Voice of Vashon, chairing the beloved Low Tide Celebration, and most notably, leading the Keepers of Point Robinson. Thanks to his leadership, Point Robinson remains one of Vashon’s most cherished parks.
The Captain has dedicated over three decades to maritime service and education. Throughout his distinguished 34-year career, he commanded six ships worldwide, including a polar icebreaker, and served as Chief of Operations for the 13th Coast Guard District, overseeing the Pacific Northwest’s navigational aids. His final assignment as Chief of Ice Operations granted him oversight of the Arctic, Antarctic, and the American Great Lakes. In recognition of his contributions, the Wubbold Glacier in Antarctica bears his name.
After retiring, Captain Wubbold pursued a Master’s degree in Polar Studies from the University of Cambridge and managed the construction of the Shackleton Memorial Library. He now resides on Vashon Island, where he and his late wife Mary dedicated their lives to serving the island. Captain Wubbold serves as president of the Keepers of Point Robinson Lighthouse, sharing his passion for maritime history and education with the community. He leads historical tours of the lighthouse each Sunday, Mother’s Day through mid September. We are immensely grateful to Captain Wubbold for his service to the island - and to Vashon Park District.

Camp With Us!
Point Robinson and Lisabeula Parks each offer two campsites for visitors arriving by bicycle or kayak. Overnight vehicle parking is not permitted. Point Robinson is located on the east side of Maury Island, while Lisabeula faces west over Colvos Passage. Both parks offer scenic natural settings with beach access, forested areas, and fresh island air. These are primitive campsites, meaning no water is available, and campfires are not allowed. We ask that you follow the Leave No Trace principles during your stay.
Campsites must be reserved through Vashon Adventures. For more information or to make a reservation, please visit vashonadventures.com or call (206) 259-3978.

A Farewell Message from
Elaine Ott-Rocheford Executive Director
Vashon Park District
Dear Vashon Community,
It has been my sincere pleasure to serve as the Vashon Park District’s Executive Director these past 12 years. My retirement date of May 5 is fast approaching! While the parting will be bittersweet, I am so deeply proud of all we have accomplished – personally and in partnership with my fantastic team and in collaboration with an engaged and supportive board.
Our over-arching greatest accomplishments include:
• I am honored to have been part of the team that has restored our sense of trust and respect within the community in terms of our financial health and our stewardship of taxpayer resources.
• All our state audits that have occurred under my management have been glowing.
• We have restored a sense of fun and purpose with our renewed offerings of recreation programming and events.
• The District has come a long way in its strategic planning by most recently putting together a 2024 – 2029 Comprehensive Plan. Strategic plans provide the framework for establishing our goals and objectives that serve as a necessary tool for managing the District and also for communicating our long range plans to the community.
• I am very proud of having developed the District’s Maintenance Management Plan and our Recreation Programming Plan, which help guide our park management internally.
From an asset preservation standpoint, some of my greatest accomplishments have been:
• Completing the VES Fields project and the VES restroom installation.
• Installing the skate bowl at BARC.
• Agren Park field restoration
• Many upgrades to pool infrastructure, and certainly the now year-round pool with the Dome installation
• Ober Park “Playground for All” playground restoration
• Many upgrades to the lighthouse and the lodging facilities at Point Robinson and Fern Cove, not to mention the installation of the Troll
• Addressing invasive species remediation at our parks, having started with a respectable effort at Wingehaven
• Clearing the view at Inspiration Point in partnership with the revitalized Vashon Parks Foundation
• And most recently, the work we are doing to replace the Tramp Harbor Dock, install pickleball courts, and renovating the BARC indoor skate building.
Personally, I am deeply proud of:
• Saving the District from severe financial hardship by working with our state legislators to pass a bill that moved us out of the Local Taxing District $5.90 structure and into the 50 cent gap.
• The financial management and forecasting tools I have developed that help ensure the District’s financial health going forward
• My grant award record, which has saved the District over $1.3 million in capital improvement projects.
Most of all, I am deeply proud of the team I have put together that makes all we do and manage possible. As I bid a fond farewell to the Vashon Park District, I know it is in good hands with the passionate, dedicated group of folks that will continue to do great work under new leadership.
Thank you, Vashon, for a grand 12 years!
