About the Rick Kaps Award It is with great pride and respect that the OMC Foundation established the Rick Kaps Award, which is presented on an annual basis to an organization or individual for their outstanding support of cancer care on the North Olympic Peninsula. The award is named for Sequim teacher and coaching great Rick Kaps (left), who passed away from cancer in 1998 at age 55. Kaps was head coach of Sequim High School’s basketball team from 1975 to 1989. His 1988 team, led by son Ryan, made it to the finals in the Class AA state tournament with nary a starter over 6’-3”. The team finished second to Rainier Beach, which was led by future NBA star Doug Christie. Over the years, four of his teams made it to the state tournament, while six were district champions. He was named Washington State Basketball Coach of the Year in 1988. "I think that Rick Kaps was the closest thing our town has had to a hero," said fellow Sequim High School educator Mark Textor. When Kaps passed away from cancer in February 1998, over 1,000 family members, friends, colleagues and ex-players packed into what is now Rick Kaps Gym at Sequim High School to pay their respects. "Rick Kaps may be best known as the highly successful coach of Sequim basketball games," wrote Sequim Gazette Editor Jim Manders, "But there was much more to the man than what happened on a shiny wooden court." "I have memories of breaking chalk and flying clipboards, but through it all, I know that he always cared about his players," said Larry Hill, Kaps' assistant and successor as head coach. "Most people remember him as a coach, but first and foremost, he was a teacher." "He really knew what was important in life, which was relationships with people he cared about," said Kaps' son Ryan, who went on to play basketball at the University of Washington and Weber State University. "He was one in a million," said long time friend Dave Blake. "He would drop everything to help someone in need."

2020 Award Winners – First Federal, First Federal Community Foundation Few organizations give as much back to the community as First Federal and the First Federal Community Foundation. Very importantly for cancer care on the peninsula, they provided $150,000 to the OMC Foundation as part of the Cancer Center expansion capital campaign in 2018 and 2019. Therefore, it wasn’t difficult for the Harvest of Hope Committee to award them with this year’s Rick Kaps award, which is presented on an annual basis to an organization or individual for their outstanding support of cancer care on the North Olympic Peninsula.

Tonina, Jr., Board member Karen McCormick and Matthew P. Deines, President and Chief Executive Officer. Not pictured, Board member David Flodstrom, Board Secretary Joyce Ruiz and Board Treasurer Geri Bullard.
The First Federal Community Foundation began making grants in 2015, thanks to a generous gift of stock and cash from First Northwest BanCor, the parent company of First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles. This gift underscored First Federal’s commitment to continue its tradition of giving back to the communities it serves. The Foundation is honored to continue that tradition and, in that spirit, has contributed more than $4 million dollars to nonprofit organizations focused on affordable housing, community support, community development and economic development.
First Federal Savings and Loan Association of Port Angeles first opened for business on March 31, 1923 under the name Lincoln Savings and Loan Association. Lincoln S&L emerged from the challenging years of the Great Depression and World War II with nearly a million dollars in assets, and through sound, conservative management grew along with the community. During the last 97 years, both First Federal and the First Federal Community Foundation have been very supportive of many non-profits on the North Olympic Peninsula.

Featured Chefs Kathryn Kitts and Renee Ochs
Because of the unique nature of our virtual event this year, Harvest of Hope attendees are receiving dinner from one of two chefs – Kathryn Kitts, long-time Harvest of Hope main chef, will provide meals for Sequim residents, while Renee Ochs, the owner of Chestnut Cottage, is preparing dinners in Port Angeles. During her long career in the culinary arts, Kathryn Kitts has owned and operated three cafes located in Newport Beach, Calif.; Silverdale and Sequim. She creates hand-crafted, artisan food incorporating fresh, local organic ingredients. All offerings originate from Kathryn’s personally developed recipes, though the most important ingredient in any recipe or offering she knows, is love. It is Kathryn’s belief that she is blessed to be able to “do what I love, and love what I do.” According to Kathryn, “My role and my work are part of my spiritual journey, and what better place to continue this journey than Sequim!” Renee Ochs has served as a chef and kitchen manager in Port Angeles for 39 years. She started at First Street Haven, then helped open Chestnut Cottage in 1992. She has owned the famed restaurant for six years, and has expanded the facility’s offerings to include catering, with help from her husband Tim. The Cottage has received several mentions over the years, including: • 2007 issue of Wayfarers Magazine • August 2008 National Park issue of Backpacker Magazine • December 2009 issue of Backpacker Magazine •W inner of the “Best Restaurant” Sterling Award by the National Commercial Builders Council —————
Over 2.4 Million Dollars Through the generous gifts of many people in the audience tonight, the Olympic Medical Center Foundation has been able to raise $2.4 million for cancer care since 2006. Counting pledges, over $1.3 million of that has come during the last two years through our capital campaign to expand Olympic Medical Cancer Center. Tonight we hope to raise $100,000 to fund new equipment that will be necessary for the enlarged Cancer Center. Thanks to all!!

Featuring Wines of the North Olympic Peninsula Camaraderie Cellars Don Corson started Camaraderie Cellars with his wife Vicki in 1992. At that time there were only about 50 active wineries in Washington State. Now there are more than 900. Over the years the winery has grown from just 200 cases to over 3,500, and has garnered several hundred major local, national and international awards, including the prestigious Jefferson Cup and recognition by Sunset Magazine. Don and Vicki have been generous supporters of community arts and health campaigns by crafting unique, specialty fundraising wines like the Confluence you are drinking tonight. Harbinger Winery Sara Gagnon’s Port Angeles roots run deep. Her current home sits on a portion of the orchard land homesteaded by her great-grandparents at the turn of the last century. Sara began making wine at the “ripe” old age of 20; her first creation being a blackberry wine from fruit picked off Gagnon land. In 2000, Gagnon accepted an apprenticeship under Don Caudill, the former owner and winemaker of Olympic Cellars. Six months later, Caudill retired and Sara became one of Washington State’s youngest winemakers. Harbinger signifies “good things to come.”
