Will islands face disaster?
SJPT places 2nd in nation
The potential impacts of an earthquake or tsunami on San Juan
By Colleen Smith Armstrong Islands’ Sounder Editor
By Meredith Griffith Islands’ Sounder Reporter
The tsunami devastated the coast of Japan, washing away homes and killing 1,000 people. It was the year 1700. Japanese history calls it “The Orphan Tsunami” because it seemed to birth itself; they felt no warning for the earthquake. The Pacific Coast has no such comprehensive written history, and for a long time quake experts believed that the closest fault, the Cascadia subduction zone, was safely aseismic. That was until they found mysteriously sunken Northwest forests that appeared to have been killed by salt intrusion in the year 1700. And before scientists doing horizontal geodetic modeling discovered that the Olympics are creeping languidly toward Tiger Mountain. It turns out that the eastwardmoving Juan de Fuca tectonic plate is not sliding smoothly beneath the westward-moving North American plate; instead, it’s bunching up, building up tremendous pressure that scientists believe will eventually let loose in the space of a few minutes. If the fault’s five segments all “go off ” at once, a 9.0-plus magnitude megaquake could launch See TSUNAMI, Page 5

Camera lights flashed and the crowd cheered as Barbara Cable, adrenaline pumping, rushed through each aisle, strategically pulling items — like cake mix, laundry detergent, mayonnaise and Hamburger Helper — off the shelf. “Four minutes goes by really fast,” Barbara Cable said smiling as she looked over the shopping carts overflowing with paper towels and toilet tissue.

Despite a recession, land preservation seems to be holding strong — at least in our neck of the woods. The National Land Trust Census, a report released this month by the Land Trust Alliance, shows that voluntarily protected land increased 27 percent between 2005 and 2010. Locally, the San Juan Preservation Trust worked with private land owners to permanently protect 3,681 acres in the San Juan Islands, a 36 percent increase since 2005.
How to reach us the San Juan Island Lions Club on behalf of the Friday Harbor Food Bank — collected a total of $736.33. And all of the merchandise will go to the Friday Harbor Food Bank. “The Food Bank plays a really important role in the community,” Cable said. “I want to support
them as much as possible.” Cable’s grand total is the highest amount that Lion J.T. Towson can recall since the event started about 15 years ago. He said the sprees generally total around $500. Last year, Rusty Argall gathered $593 worth of goods in the spree and See SPREE, Page 5

SeaDoc-supported research about Northern Abalone was recently published in the journal, “Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems.” Study authors L. RogersBennett and collaborators did dive surveys in 2005 to determine the best habitats for restoration of Northern Abalone. They found that the best habitat was kelp beds with abundant encrusting coralline algae. SeaDoc, a nonprofit research and conservation society based on Orcas Island, says in 1979 a similar study was undertaken in San Juan Channel. On those dives, researchers found 224 abalone, compared to just 17 found in 2005, and they found the abalone in less time. “In 1979 it took an average of two minutes and eightseconds to find each abalone,” the website explains. “In 2005, it was 40 minutes and 49 seconds per abalone.”

Harris-Moore to face local charges in Island County
Colton Harris-Moore
The date for the so-called Barefoot Bandit to appear in Island County Superior Court has finally been set. Colton Harris-Moore is scheduled to appear in court on Friday, Dec. 16 to enter guilty pleas to crimes he allegedly committed in the state. Harris-Moore, a 20-year-old Camano Island resident, has already pleaded guilty to seven federal criminal charges in U.S. District Court in Seattle. “The hearing is coordinated with the hearings in Island County as a matter of efficiency and security,” said San Juan County prosecutor Randy Gaylord. “The first proceeding will be the arraignment on the
17 charges filed in San Juan County. There has been extensive discussion with the attorneys for Mr. HarrisMoore and we will we have the paperwork ready to proceed to sentencing if there is a guilty plea.” Prosecutors in San Juan County have agreed to have the local charges heard on that same date.
Dollars for Scholars on Web Every December, Dollars for Scholars San Juan Island holds it annual “Letter Campaign” for its educational scholarship fund for graduating seniors with a minimum of 80 volunteer community service hours during their high school career. In 2010, 13 graduating seniors received scholarships and over the past 10 years, Dollars for Scholars has awarded over $150,000 in scholarships. DFS is currently reaching out to all San Juan Island nonprofit and community organizations for any events or opportunity, which needs volunteers. Nonprofits can register their event on the new website www.dollarsforscholarssji.org. You can make a tax deductible donation through the secure “Donate Here” button on the website.

District braces for more education cuts On Monday, Nov. 28, the legislature will reconvene for more state spending cuts. Superintendent Rick Thompson anticipates that those cuts will impact the San Juan Island School District. On Nov. 21, the Governor released a budget,
which included a combination of kindergarten through grade 12 reductions along with a half penny increase on sales tax designed to offset the impact of the cuts. “We will continue to follow the special session closely to anticipate where the cuts will come,” said Thompson. “We are also expecting reductions to federal funding, in light of automatic cuts to federal spending which will take effect now that the Super committee has not been able to act.” Thompson expects the following could be cut: fewer school days (180 days have been part of the definition of basic education), Local Effort Assistance (funding designed to assist property
poor districts), salary reductions, and staff funding. Thompson urges islanders to voice opposition to educational cuts, and careful consideration of the Capital and Technology Levy which will be presented to voters on Feb. 14, so that the district doesn’t use classroom dollars to maintain facility needs. “The Great Recession continues to impact the way we operate public schools, and threatens the educational gains that have been made in our state over the last twenty years,” said Thompson. “Fully funding basic education continues to be the highest duty of our state legislators. Please let your voice be known.”

States. Orcas Islander Anne Hay is one of the many locals who made that ranking possible. She donated 16 acres near Camp Orkila to the trust as a conservation easement in the late 1990s. “It seemed the perfect spot to preserve, it’s a beautiful piece of land,â€? Hay said of the acreage. “I’ve had the property since 1958. It’s just a small piece, but it’s waterfront, and to the north there are other conservation easements ‌ there is also the state preserve, Pt. Dowdy, north of the property.â€? About the San Juan Preservation Trust Founded in 1979, the San Juan Preservation Trust is a private, nonprofit and membership-based land trust dedicated to helping people and communities conserve land in the San Juan Islands. The trust has permanently protected more than 260 properties, 34 miles of shoreline and 14,000 acres on 20 islands, including land now managed as public parks, nature preserves, wildlife habitat, and working farms and forests. Unlike the land bank, which purchases land primarily for public use and is funded from a 1 percent real estate excise tax, the

Tsunami Continued from page 1 twin killer tsunamis, one toward the Pacific Coast and one toward Japan. Seismologists now believe that’s what caused The Orphan Tsunami in 1700. When the plates finally slipped free, the pent-up Pacific Coast dropped by about five feet, submerging forests. Within 35 minutes, tsunami waves had hit the outer West Coast, depositing sand layers that can be identified today. The westward-moving tsunami took about nine hours to reach Honshu. State DNR Chief Hazards Geologist Tim Walsh held 80 Orcas Islanders spellbound with earth-shaking tales as he shared about earthquake potential in the Pacific Northwest at a Nov. 17 event. Predictions as to when the plates will roar again vary, but Walsh said six past

Over the years Lion Bob Nieman has estimated that about half of the time winners donate to Food Bank, but raffle winners are free to do what they choose. This year’s winning ticket for the spree was drawn on Sunday, after 5:30 p.m., along with three winning tickets for a turkey, which went to the Food Bank, Rod Wiese and Diedre Morris, who will also be donating her bird to the Food Bank. The pre-Thanksgiving Day shopping spree is a fundraiser for the Lions’ Club scholarship program. Lion Bob Nieman estimates that about $1,600 worth of raffle tickets were sold this year. “It’s so amazing,” said Food Bank Operations
events affecting Washington have occurred 500 to 550 years apart. In 2011, we’re at 311 years and counting. Canadian and U.S. experts have offered probabilities of 14 to 29 percent that the event could occur in the next 50 years. How could a Cascadia subduction zone megaquake and tsunami affect the islands? The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association Center for Tsunami Research has been creating tsunami modeling to help Washington state communities prepare. They’re focusing on high populations first, but plan to model for the San Juans next year. NOAA is modeling this particular size of quake based on the probability of such an event occurring during the normal lifetime of a building or person. “What we’re trying to establish is a scenario that has a reasonable probability,” said Walsh.
For perspective, he said, the massive tsunamis caused by the end-Cretaceous meteor that struck the Yucatan Peninsula 65 million years ago were an event likely to recur just once every 100 million years. While specific information on local effects isn’t yet available, Walsh and Cowan shared general predictions. Walsh said quakes normally don’t fell trees, and that rocky areas don’t tend to destruct. Glacial sediments or soft, wet and sandy soils can potentially “liquefy,” causing buried tanks and pipes to float to the surface and wreaking havoc with infrastructure like septic, power and water lines. Walsh said buildings built before 2003, under the earlier Uniform Building Code “may be okay,” but newer buildings will fare better. The 2012 International Building Code will include increased precautions for the West Coast based on newer input.
As for what to do during a quake event, Cowan’s advice is to keep it simple: If you feel a quake, drop to the ground, take cover under furniture, and wait for the shaking to stop. If you live on low-bank waterfront and a quake lasts minutes, as soon as the quaking stops, calmly walk to higher ground. In NOAA’s simulation for Bellingham, a tsunami barrels down the Juan de Fuca Strait and slams into the west side of Whidbey Island before funneling north to slosh around the San Juans (potentially 90 to 180 minutes post-quake). “Tsunamis are drastically affected by bathymetry, topography, and geography,” said County Emergency Management Director Brendan Cowan. High resolution modeling for Bellingham and Anacortes estimates that waters could reach a height of 10 feet above mean high tide in some places, and up
Director Pat Vannest about Cable’s donation. “So many people are generous.” Families in need have increased 40 percent since last year, estimates Vannest. In just one week this month, in the span of four hours, the Food Bank served 164 families. Thanks to the generosity of the community, the Food Bank’s shelves are already
stocked with tuna, eggs and peanut butter; thanks to Cable, they have a few more “treat” items to offer. When Cable found out that she won, she phoned the Food Bank to compile a list of most wanted items. The next night she drove to King Market for a reconnaissance mission. She numbered the aisles correlating with desired
foods on a piece of paper, and noted what shelves held what items. “All night I dreamed of time deadlines,” said Cable the night before the spree.

Sudden isolation Cowan said for the 90 percent of county residents who live at higher elevations in wooden frame homes built on bedrock, impacts of a megaquake and tsunami could be “dramatic… but probably not catastrophic.” “We are better off in the San Juans than almost
anyone else in Western Washington,” he said. The real problem will be sudden isolation. “Seattle, Vancouver, Victoria and the I-5 corridor are going to be significantly incapacitated,” Cowan said. “We’re going to be cut off from the mainland.” He said islanders should expect to be on their own for at least a week, providing their own food, water and other essentials.

OPINION Editorial
True both then and now The editorial below, originally published in 2009, still rings true for this holiday season. ife on our islands was once described by a local writer as similar to living on a ship at sea. We are largely on our own out here in the northwesternmost county in the continental United States. With that in mind, “shop local” takes on new meaning. Money we spend here stays here. It helps pay local wages, supports public services, puts food on island tables, pays rents, mortgages and insurance. And it funnels through to the many non-profits by the generous donations of local businesses. Do your holiday shopping on the mainland, and your money stays on the mainland. Shop local. It really makes a difference. That’s obvious in the budget cuts our local governments have been making. Those cuts have followed declines in sales and construction, and in tax revenues. Shopping local makes sense in other ways too. First, you know who you’re buying from — someone you may have known for years — and often you’ll purchase an item that is made right here on the islands. Second, local items are often unique and warm and, well, island-ish. Clothing made from local alpaca fiber and sheep wool can be found in island stores. You’ll also find locally produced food products, as well as award-winning vintages from local wineries, in local stores. And if you’re looking for green items, the islands offer more than their share of eco-friendly goods. These islands are a world-class destination, known for their natural beauty. Consider buying marine wildlife-related items at the Whale Museum in downtown Friday Harbor. Or a gift certificate for kayaking or other outdoor activities. A getaway for two at a local inn is a wonderful experience for a local or mainlander on your gift list. And, of course, shopping on the islands includes all the cheer and lights and fun of the holiday events that accompany the season.

Letters to the Editor
Beyond belief The last seven months have been filled with so many questions and absolutely no answers. My heart has been torn apart with grief and I am most certain will never fully mend. I have lost one of the dearest people in my life way too soon, and in such a tragic way. Sharon (Hammel) was the strongest woman I have ever met. I envied the life that she led as a young woman, along with the hopes and dreams for the future. She was so devoted to her family and to each and every one of her friends. Our close-knit group of girlfriends, MaryKate, Jeannette, Joy, Julie, Katie, Debbie, Tess, and myself were all brought together by that beautiful smile and never ending energy. I go over and over in my head what I should have stood up and said in that courtroom. I just sat in disbelief at what I was hearing. (“Seven years for murder”, Journal, Nov. 9) Not only at the ruling, but the opinion of a certain individual, whom none of Sharon’s true friends knew. Sharon’s true friends knew that she had tried many times to get Taylor to open up. To talk to her about his school work, friends, or whatever may be making him sad. She encouraged him to play lacrosse, join Boy Scouts, go to school dances. She had recently had Taylor in counseling and spoke on numerous occasions to school staff about how to get Taylor to open up. Taylor was a shy, awkward, quiet boy who seemed to rather be alone than be social. We all knew her frustrations and offered any help to her and Taylor. Contrary to what was said in court, Sharon in no way would think she was responsible for what happened to her. She didn’t miss any kind of sign. It is very disturbing how such a horrific act that was
done to her has turned into a pity party for Taylor. It is appalling. What has this country come to that you can brutally kill someone, say you don’t remember doing it, and then have everyone at your feet trying to protect and save you? Who’s saving Sharon? This beautiful woman who would give her life for her son, did, and no one protected her. Sheri Wilkinson San Juan Island
Dismayed for a different reason
(In response, “Dismayed by indifference”, Nov. 16, page 6) Legion members are largely people with families, jobs, and responsibilities. On Memorial Day, their day off, they march to Memorial Park. There they remember, with their community, all the gifts others have given us. On the Fourth of July, their day off, they march in the parade to celebrate with their community our freedom. We have a firing squad that, upon family request, honors veterans at their funeral. Quite often they lose work or vacation days to do this. Veterans Day was created to honor our military veterans. You would take away this gift by demanding, on their day off, that they stand
in the cold rain in front of Memorial Park, alone. They would be alone, because our community knows enough to come in out of the rain. If you wished to honor veterans, you could have come to the American Legion where veterans were honoring veterans. You would’ve been and still are most welcome. Also, it is quite likely you are eligible to join. Yes, I am also dismayed at how some view an organization whose only purpose is to help and support veterans and their community. Yes, it is a free country because of those who gave. What is your gift? Wes Benstine San Juan Island
A friend in need
You may have heard that our island neighbor and friend, Karina Serna, is battling breast cancer. While she and her family face this challenge, a benefit account has been set up at Islanders Bank to help offset some of the medical expenses. To learn more, please contact Islanders Bank, and ask about making a deposit to the “Karina Serna Benefit Fund;” branches on San Juan, Orcas and Lopez Islands. The proceeds from a booth at the Dec. 10 Flea Market will also benefit Karina and her family. Please stop by and show your support.

The costs of confusion Confusing and often conflicting development codes and other county regulations have serious impacts on the lives and livelihoods of our fellow islanders. The on-going struggles of the Jones family of Lopez Island (“No permit, no farm stand”, Nov. 23, pg. 1) are the latest consequence of the muddled state of our county government. Confused permitting lasting over several years for the “Craftsman Corner” development on Orcas Island prompted me to send the following email to County Councilman Rich Peterson on March 2, 2011: “San Juan County should adopt an efficient, consistent and transparent system for planning and development similar to the City of Boise’s Online Planning and Development Services. A builder friend has worked with both systems. He praises Boise’s system, but is highly critical of the San Juan County system. I have heard similar complaints from other people developing land or just adding a garage in San Juan County.

Penn State illuminates culture of silence, apathy By Kim Bryan
You can’t turn on the TV, computer or radio or open a newspaper or magazine without the sickening details of this “respected” adult and the accusations of the crimes committed against vulnerable children. As I sit in our local coffee shops or ride the ferry here in our pristine paradise thousands of miles away from this ugly scene, I overhear conversations spoken in anger and indignation that an adult would get away with such atrocities against children for so long. Some talk even resembles the old “vigilante” mentality of what they would do if that man were here hurting our kids. And yet, this makes me wonder... If you have spent anytime listening to, or reading the details of the reports you would see one fact shine through. That saddening factor is that there were multiple adults who could have stepped in and stopped this horrible nightmare and they didn’t! Some of these adults were in positions of authority and certainly had received training regarding child sexual abuse and their mandated responsibility to report and

Kim Bryan But as adults they were all responsible for the safety of the children around them. This is not another article to just assign blame and dig the hole of hopelessness even deeper. No, we here at DVSAS are eager to lead our community in a response of zero tolerance and zero apathy when it comes to the abusers who want to challenge the safety of our children. One very important fact we need to remember here in our little paradise that was shown only too true in this sad story is that over 90 percent of child sexual assault victims know their abusers. This is usually someone who has won the trust of the child and their family. So

Public Ed: a house of cards I remember one winter day as a child I built an amazing structure out of an old card deck. Hard work went into the intricate house of cards I constructed. Imagine my disappointment when, one by one, several significant cards were “stolen” by my friend for another project. It held for awhile, but eventually the house of cards came crashing down. I have been a Washington public educator for almost 40 years, an enthusiastic
part of the building of a structure that serves the highest moral endeavor of the land. I have watched as our state has built a public school system that effectively serves our young people. Card by card, we have built a system that not only serves young people well, but has also harbors the potential and hope for a positive future for us all. The recent crisis in school funding, manifested by the governor’s recently released recommended budget, has the very real potential to dismantle our house of education. One card, one reduction at a time and our house will likely begin to crumble. We owe our children, and our future, more. The recommendations include a reduction of four school days, the elimination of important programs, such as Readiness to Learn and CTE start-up funding, a revised attendance report-

Each month we will speak to an issue that is challenging the personal safety of our citizens here on our islands. We will also highlight the strength of survivors and provide venues for us all to take an active role in our safety. even though we can feel good about the low crime rates on our islands in respect to “stranger danger”, we need to open our eyes to the danger that is living and working by our sides. I am not saying that we should all distrust each other and that we should instill a fear of everyone in our children, however, there is an opening of the eyes that needs to occur to ensure that stories like this one aren’t repeated in our local news on these beautiful peaceful shores.

Also on the list is the elimination of, and/or significant reduction to levy equalization funding, of great significance to many districts with low tax bases. The governor’s reductions are estimated to be well over $100,000 to Lopez School, with similar damages to other school districts in the San Juans.

future makes sense to most people, but it has become a target of certain tea party groups who believe that the 20-year-old United Nations Agenda 21 Plan for Sustainable Development is a formula for U.N. take over of the USA and that local planning and zoning commissions are the U.N.’s tools for this take over (Mencimer, Mother Jones, April 2011).

Roger Sandwith: 1947 — 2011 Roger Blair Sandwith, a.k.a. “Big Rog,� passed away on Nov. 23, 2011 surrounded by family in Friday Harbor, Wash. He was 64. Roger was born in Bellingham, Wash., on June 7, 1947 to Perry “Pat� and Mildred Sandwith. He grew up on the Sandwith family homestead on San Juan Island, and after graduating from Friday Harbor High School, enrolled at Bellingham Technical College. He went on to enlist in the United States Air Force, where he served as an air policeman for seven months and seven days before he was relieved of duty due to medical discharge. It was during his service that he met his beloved wife, Sharon, in her home state of Oklahoma. On Dec. 23, 2011, they would have celebrated their 45th wed-
ding anniversary. Roger owned an excavation business for several years, and then went to work at Friday Harbor Sand & Gravel, from which he retired after 22 years of service. When his children were young, he was a Roger Sandwith Webelo/Cub Scout leader for several years, coached Friday Harbor Little League Baseball, and was instrumental in bringing the sport of wrestling to the Friday Harbor High School athletic program. He served as post commander at the Friday Harbor American Legion for two years and was a long-time member of Islands Community

Church, where many children knew him as “The Candy Man�. His larger-than-life personality was hard to miss on San Juan Island, and he could often be found teasing and joking in grocery store aisles, out of his car on Spring Street, and almost every morning with the coffee shop guys at the Donut Shop/Blue Dolphin/Hungry Clam. Many who knew him well were privileged to see his softer side as a devoted lover of God, family and friends. He had a special place in his heart for children, animals, the disabled and elderly people. Roger is survived by his wife Sharon, daughter Shannon, son Roger (wife Marlis), grandchildren, Gunnar, Finn and Ada, mother Mildred (King) Sandwith, brothers Colin, Mike (wife Shari) and Perry (wife Sheila), sister Patsy Orazio (husband Joe), as well as many nieces, nephews, aunts,
uncles, and cousins. He was preceded in death by his daughter Angela Sandwith, father Perry “Pat� Sandwith, sister-in-law Florence “Frosty� Sandwith, and nieces Joanne Young and Jamie Lynn Tull. A private family interment will take place at the Valley Cemetery on San Juan Island. A memorial service will be held at the Friday Harbor Presbyterian Church on Thursday, Dec. 1, 2011 at 1 p.m. In lieu of flowers donations can be made in Roger’s name to Seattle Children’s Hospital at the following web or regular mailing addresses:http://www.seattlechildrens.org/ways-to-help/donate/commemorative-giving/.

Mail not so safe, protect yourself We live in a beautiful haven where big city life rarely touches us. The Sunday before Thanksgiving my husband put out the garbage and also put some outgoing mail in the outbox with the flag up. It was to be picked up at our usual time, about 3:30 in the afternoon. As I left the house on Monday morning, I noticed the mailbox was open and the flag was down. Neither my husband, myself nor our tenant removed the
mail, so I followed up with the post office. They confirmed that our usual mail pick up was at about 3:30 p.m. and that there was no way the mail could have been picked up sooner. So I called the sheriff and reported the incident. I was told that it probably was not a prank but a way for someone to get access to my personal information. I quickly cancelled bank accounts and notified creditors, however, I realized that if the door to the box had not been left open I would never have known and my personal information would have been compromised. Please be aware of your mail and if you have any doubts about it being received, check on it and take the necessary actions to protect yourselves. Do not be a victim.

Guest Column
Oystercatchers — more than just a catchy name Learning to use a beak like that takes time and guidance By Peggy Butler Special to the Journal
So who named them Oystercatchers? They don’t catch oysters or even prefer them for dinner. And whoever named anything oystercatcher has never caught oysters, because you don’t. You put on big rubber boots, wade into thick mud at the water’s edge and step between slick rocks, risk broken ankles or cracked knees to pick them. Or you tong them with long ‘rakish’ like tongs — from a boat — or dredge them with a weighted net if you are a very serious oystermonger. There is no chasing or lying in wait to get your oyster. Oystercatchers eat little shellfish like mussels, chitins and limpets according to Wikipedia, which knows everything. Some of them may eat oysters sometimes. I am writing about oystercatchers because I want to nominate them for a parenting award. Most small birds take only a few weeks to become independent, which means they can get food for themselves. At our house we call it "FFY," which means "fend for yourself." Very large birds, like eagles, may actually teach their offspring to hunt. For the hunting-challenged this may take a few months. But oystercatcher parents must work tirelessly for a year teaching by example how to hunt and husk while they feed the oystercatcher kids already peeled bivalves and mollusks from their

Artisans Market — quieter, friendlier Black Friday By Cali Bagby
On Black Friday, news stories around the country circulated with reports of a stabbing, gunshots in a mall and a woman who used pepper spray to keep rival shoppers away from merchandise she wanted at a Walmart. On San Juan, there was a far different scene: islanders lifting fragrant, handmade soaps to their noses, carefully fingering jewelry and glass blown art, and perusing many other local wares at the annual Artisans Holiday Market at Friday Harbor Elementary School. “This is totally the opposite,” said Darleen Nixon of Darleen’s Designs, comparing the market to news reports of other Black Fridays. “Everybody walks two feet and they see a neighbor and stop and talk... it’s a nice uplifting positive experience in a small community.”
Across the country, a record 226 million shoppers visited stores and websites during the four-day holiday weekend starting on Thanksgiving Day, up from 212 million last year, according to early estimates, released Sunday, by The National Retail Federation. Americans spent more, too: the average holiday shopper spent $398.62 over the weekend, up from $365.34 a year ago. On Friday and Saturday, over 50 vendors from all four islands gathered on San Juan to offer an array of items that included jewelry, sweets, body care products, art and more. In between selling and shopping, vendors and customers discussed how the event is an alternative to the traditional Black Friday. “I’ve never been to a traditional Black Friday. I refuse to go to the mall,” said shopper Tanja Williamson.
“This is great, both the people and supporting the community. There’s always something new here — crafts or being surprised that your neighbor just made that.” Joseph Crisanti, selling glass art at the market, said this is an alternative to Black Fridays seen in other parts of the country. “There’s no corporations, no cash registers, no lines, no mobs,” he said. “Just people having fun and being friendly.” Rosa Blair of Rose Carmen Art estimates that more shoppers were in attendance this year than last. “People more and more want to buy local,” she said. To see the sights and hear the sounds of the market, visit www.sanjuanjournal.com for “Island Artisans Holiday Marketplace — a quieter, friendlier Black Friday | Multi media.”

Frost — a new face in town leads the band By Stewart Bell Journal intern
Who is that guy who came in second at the 8.8K Loop Run? He’s the new trumpet player in the One More Time Band. You may have seen him riding a Harley down Spring Street. Well, the only man who fits this diverse description is Matt Frost. But he isn’t in Friday Harbor simply to run a road race, gig with a new band or ride a hog. Those are pastimes. Matt Frost has
come to San Juan Island to be the new band director at Friday Harbor’s high school and middle school. Frost got bit by the band bug early. “My first influence was my fifth grade band director,” he said, “He told me about Wynton Marsalis and Maynard Ferguson.” These two influential trumpeters would help to fuel Frost’s desire to pursue a career in music. See FROST, Page 14

Holidays bring gift buying, visits to friends and family or vacations in sunny locals to escape winter. Shopping and traveling opportunities are a great way to step out of the daily routine. Unfortunately, travel and shopping pose a risk to financial security. Each year consumers and businesses lose billions to identity theft and fraud. As consumers increase shopping and travel, credit and debit card use increase along with the likelihood that unscrupulous individuals come into contact with your personal financial information. Here’s a few tips to help ensure that financial fraud doesn’t happen to you. When you conduct a transaction with a business that you don’t know, healthy skepticism is an important first step. If your credit or debit cards leave your sight, be aware who takes the card, how long they have it and whether the individual in possession

of your card has oversight. When buying online make sure the merchant uses a secure website encrypted to ensure protection of your financial information. Look for an https:// secured website or the lock symbol on the merchant webpage to indicate strong security practices. Remember to logoff websites. When traveling, keep your debit and credit cards secure. Don’t use cash machines that aren’t associated with a reputable hotel, business or bank. Look closely at cash machines and avoid any ATM that has loose card scanners or odd looking attachments, this can indicate skimming equipment that is used to copy your card for later use. Memorize your PIN number and don’t carry it in your wallet in the

Frost Continued from page 11 Frost is no stranger to island living. He graduated from Whidbey Island’s Coupeville High School in 2000. After high school, He attended the University of Idaho, where he earned a bachelor’s degree in music education. He pursued interests outside of music after college, such as racing bicycles in Idaho and in Seattle. But music was the career that stuck.
Frost returned to Whidbey Island to take on his first classroom assignment. He directed the jazz band and concert band at Langley Middle School for two years. After leaving Langley, he thought about attending graduate school in New York City or in Chicago, but then met a trumpeter in the Seattle Symphony, David Gordon, who pointed him instead to the Chicago College of the Performing Arts. There he studied under Channing Philbrick, co-assistant principal of

Though an accomplished trumpeter, Frost continues to hone his musical skills, practicing two to three hours a day. He’s also pursuing a doctoral degree at the University of Washington.

Thanksgiving at the Grange was a day of sharing and caring as more than 400 people enjoyed a wonderful meal together. This was the 13th annual event. Despite the current difficult economic times, we do have a lot to be thankful for and that is especially true for San Juan Islanders. How can we explain the army of volunteers and the masses of diners who join us for this day of giving thanks? Is it because people like the feeling of community and family? This is a time we can gather with a mixture of generations and viewpoints. It is a day we all join in the camaraderie of giving thanks for the blessings we have. Political differences and neighborhood disputes are forgotten. Everyone and anyone can bask in the feeling of family and community. On Wednesday evening, pre-dinner preparations include the Soroptimist Club and Leo Club helping with the set up of tables. Turkeys are seasoned and
great connection to Friday Harbor’s past and we hope it will continue to be a gathering place long into the future. But more important, it is a warm and friendly place to give thanks for the present. Thank you to the volunteers, supporters and diners for giving us a wonderful Thanksgiving to remember. To see more info, visit www. youtube.com/watch?v=z8CaW9qC5M.

Thanksgiving Day starts off at a casual pace as the first of more than 100 volunteers show up to sip coffee and peel 150 pounds of potatoes for the mashed potatoes. As the diners arrive, the pace picks up and the volunteers have to rush to keep the turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, yams, green beans and Waldorf salad replenished for the diners.
