Mourners drawn to beloved girl’s Freeland home By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter Gathering en masse only a few feet from where Rhianna Kinglet Dickson Hobbs died, mourners cried, laughed and sang for the suddenly deceased Freeland girl. She was 10 years old. Rhianna is survived by her father, Rick Hobbs, mother, Lynette Dickson, and twin brother, Ryder Hobbs. It was a fitting ceremony for the young actress, equestrian and “party girl.” “Rhianna would love to be a part of this,” said Annie Thoe, Rhianna’s aunt, at the vigil Wednesday. Briefly joining the gathering, Rhianna’s mother and father addressed the crowd. Her mother agreed that the massive gathering would have thrilled Rhianna, who often asked her parents if her friends could come over. “She was so goofy and crazy,” Dickson said before returning to her home. “It’s all too much. Thank you all.” Rhianna’s father added: “There aren’t enough languages to say, ‘Thank you,’ enough for loving Rhianna and loving us.” With lit candles in hand, a long procession of at least 100 people walked from East Harbor Road up Jubilee Lane. A slow, steady drum chorus echoed as mourners shuffled along the gravel road to the Hobbs’ home. A small shrine with Rhianna’s pictures, flower bouquets, cards, candles and horse figurines stood near a fence. The center piece of the table was a Nevada license plate, “COWGIRL.” Tacked to the fence were cards, a bright pink Western style rodeo shirt and black cowboy hat, and mementos of Rhianna, including a South Whidbey Record story from April 2009. Then 6 years old, Rhianna won money for a drawing she made of President Barack Obama during his presidential campaign. She used that money to buy 50 pounds of dog and cat food for Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation. Rhianna died the afternoon of Monday, April 15 after riding her beloved horse Beauty, shooting at targets with her bow and arrow, Thoe told the crowd. Several times Thoe said the horse is not believed to have injured Rhianna. “It wasn’t the horses, she loved the horses,” Thoe said.
Property tax eyed to fund law, justice By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter Increasingly desperate law and justice leaders are again lobbying the Island County commissioners to sign off on a proposal that may seek more than $2.6 million, possibly in the form of property taxes, from voters this fall. During a presentation to the board last week, a panel of law and justice officials led by Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks laid out their case with a litany of service shortfalls, from overburdened attorneys to officer safety issues and delayed response times.

Sera Elfrank, 9, writes a card to Rhianna Kinglet Dickson Hobbs, who died April 15 at her Freeland home. The cause of death was not immediately known, but the family said she was near her horse Beauty, seen in the background. Family members were certain the horse was not at fault.
“I’m really concerned how much longer I can go on.” De Dennis Island County Sheriff’s Office
Rhianna Kinglet Dickson Hobbs Her twin brother, Ryder, was nearby and ran for help. Her aunts, Moon Dickson and Thoe, and dad found her on the ground. “Rhianna took a couple of breaths and didn’t breathe again,” Thoe said. “She was, in a way, held by us and we are so blessed.” The child’s many activities included that of an active actress with Whidbey Children’s Theater. Her fellow youth thespians per-
scene with Rhianna in “Sleeping Beauty” at Whidbey Children’s Theater. “She talked loud. She was outrageous.” “On one day of the play, she wore a horse head.”
Banks described law and justice in the county as “woefully underfunded,” saying things are being held together by a thread but that the consensus among leaders is that the system is in the process of “unraveling.” “I feel like we’re one big fish away from the line snapping,” Banks said. Changes in the economy have forced the commissioners to cut about $6 million from the budget over the past five years. Although law and justice, a category that includes police, courts and the prosecutor’s office, still receives over 55 percent of the general fund, the reductions have hit the departments hard.

Fists flew at Langley Middle School. Instead of referrals, detentions or suspensions, students were handed awards after a school-wide boxing tournament at Langley Middle School. From the 33-kid pool, Mikayla “Bonecrusher” Elfrank won first place. In a news release, Elfrank is colorfully described as, “the golden gloves angel of pummel, the lightning hands of Langley, the master of disaster, the queen of the ring.” Students competed through five rounds in front of 10 judges April 12. A six-way tie for fifth place occurred among Rebekah Merrow, Lauren Demareau, Justin Gonzalez, Lake Smith, Lewis Pope and Seth Daley, each of whom scored 72 points. Cameron Asay claimed fourth place. Bethany Justus finished in third place and Will Simms finished in second place.

Freeland sidewalk Stabbing suspect out on $50,000 bail project set to begin Hilleary was cut from below his REcoRD STAff
In late April, construction of a sidewalk improvement project on Main Street in Freeland between the driveway to Payless Foods and the U.S. Post Office will begin. The construction work will be performed by the contractor Krieg Construction Inc. of Oak Harbor under the direction of the Island County Public Works Department. Joe Araucto, a Public Works engineer, said the funding comes entirely from county funds. The bid from Krieg Construction was for $77,646.50. The project is focused on improving the accessibility for people walking between the U. S. Post Office and Payless Foods in Freeland and improving storm water management. The existing sidewalk is a gravel path with low overhanging trees. Work began in January with the relocation of a guy pole to allow the widening of the pedestrian path. The new
sidewalk, ramps, curb and gutter will allow easier access for all people using the sidewalk to access the U.S. Post Office and the Payless Foods shopping area. It will also aid in better management of storm water coming from the adjacent roadway. The existing trees will be removed, and new trees will be planted by the Friends of Freeland after the contractor has completed the improvements. During construction two-lane traffic for vehicles and a pedestrian path will be maintained during the work with some delays expected. The road will be open to normal traffic and pedestrian operations evenings and weekends. The public is encouraged to use alternate routes during the construction period to ease their commute. Construction is anticipated to be completed by the end of May. If concerns occur during construction, contact the Island County Public Works offices at 360679-7331.

By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
A 21-year-old Clinton man who slashed his friend’s throat and stabbed him twice was released from jail after posting $50,000 bond, according to Detective Ed Wallace with the Island County Sheriff’s Office. Kamren F. Adams turned himself in to police Monday and appeared in Island County Superior Court the next day. Prosecutors charged Adams Thursday with second-degree assault with a deadly weapon. Wallace said Adams was originally arrested on suspicion of first-degree assault because of the serious nature of the victim’s wounds. He said the prosecutor determined there’s currently only enough probable cause for second-degree assault since investigators don’t yet have the medical reports. Wallace said the charge can be amended at a later time as more information is gathered. Wallace initially recommended that Adams be held
on $500,000 bail. The deputy prosecutor recommended $100,000 because it’s currently a second-degree assault case. The judge set his bail at $50,000. The assault was reported just after midnight, on April 14 at Wilson Place in Clinton. Detective Wallace wrote in his report on the incident that Adams and the victim, 34-year-old Justin Hilleary, hung out together at a woman’s home. The two men were drinking and got into an argument. Adams punched Hilleary and Hilleary punched him back, the woman later told the detective. They continued to hang out, but Adams later became angry again and struck Hilleary. Hilleary pushed him down on a couch and told him to calm down, Wallace wrote. The three people then drove to the apartment of Adams’ girlfriend at Wilson Place, where they met a third man. The three young men stood in the parking lot talking when Adams attacked Hilleary, the report states.
right ear, across the right side of his throat down to his chest... Sheriff’s incident report
Hilleary was cut from below his right ear, across the right side of his throat and down to his chest. He also suffered a stab wound to his chest and a second stab wound that went completely through his forearm, Wallace wrote. Adams ran to his girlfriend’s apartment, then left through the back door. Paramedics transported Hilleary to Providence hospital in Everett, where he was originally in critical
condition, later upgraded to stable. Wallace said he doesn’t know what the men were fighting about or what precipitated the stabbing. He didn’t recover the knife, but witnesses said Adams had a switchblade or gravity knife. Court records state that Adams, who is unemployed, has a criminal history that includes resisting arrest, DUI, vehicle prowling and fourth-degree assault.

The commissioners at their April 9 meeting approved installing the Bush Point ramp on Friday, April 26, and the Possession Beach Waterfront Park ramp on Saturday, April 27. The ramps are removed each fall to protect them from the winter’s weather. Ed Field, port operations manager, said the timing will work well for anglers with fish on their minds. Lingcod season opens May 1, halibut May 2 and shrimp May 4. In addition, this year 6 million pink salmon are predicted to return to Puget Sound.

Editorial Experiment in boosting economy The South Whidbey Fire/EMS board took an interesting gamble in approving the bid for its new fire boat. The choice wasn’t between two or more closely matched bids by proven boat builders. Instead it was whether or not to accept the only bid made, submitted by a newly formed Freeland company that has never built a complete vessel — North Cross Aluminum, owned by Tim Leonard. Leonard, who will work with a few longtime friends, including Justin Nichols of the Freeland boat building dynasty, promised to bring the fire boat in on time and on budget, “no matter how many hours we have to work.” That and the association with the Nichols family was enough for commissioners Kenon Simmons and Mike Helland. Commissioner Bob Elliot expressed some obvious concerns about boat building experience and shop capabilities, but made the vote unanimous. Chief Rusty Palmer was not anxious to jump on board, as the prior week he argued the bid should not be accepted. But he’ll follow orders and work out details on the construction contract. The money making the job possible was acquired by the Port of South Whidbey thorough the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The fire district will have to pay only a quarter of the cost. The port commissioners were careful not to interfere with the fire district’s own process, but must be cheering the outcome. The port, under the leadership of President Curt Gordon, has been gung-ho on promoting economic development on South Whidbey for several years, doling out thousands of dollars to business boosters. The FEMA grant amounts to seed money to help a local business grow. Tim Leonard knows that if he builds a quality fire boat on time and on budget, he’ll have an example of success to show other clients. The relatively small fire boat, a maneuverable catamaran that measures 35 feet by 12 feet, will be the bait that attracts other boat purchasers to his business. Contracting with an untested company is a gamble, but both the fire commissioners and port commissioners know and trust the people involved with North Cross Aluminum. As long as the public gets its fire boat as designed, it’s a win-win situation for everyone. We’ll get a fire boat and help a new company create new jobs as a bonus. There’s a lot of pressure on Tim Leonard. Good luck.

Novice females learn to shoot
Cats can live totally indoors
To the editor: It must be a sign of the times. Your public service advertising has helped set a new standard for participation in the Central Whidbey Sportsmen’s Association Safety Training Programs, this time the Women’s Firearm Safety Class. With your assistance, on April 6 we were able to provide valuable training to 58 novice female gun owners so they can safely handle a loaded firearm. A lot of the participants took the opportunity to fire a gun for the first time, too. Many brought their own weapons from home, some of which have almost never been touched because of the “fear factor.” We helped with those, too. Safety sells, and you helped.
To the editor: I applaud the Bainbridges, who were profiled in the article “Cats vs. Birds” in the April 3 edition. I would like to add that it is also possible to have a happy cat that lives totally indoors (with perhaps occasional outdoor excursions on a leash). We have a cat adopted from WAIF as an adult that has adapted to being indoors with plenty of play opportunities. That way the birds and the small mammals are not in harm’s way. Outdoor cats are also vulnerable to traffic, poisoning, disease and larger predators. For those worried about rodent control, there are the old fashioned, non-toxic traps and newer electric ones available at hardware stores that can be placed so non-targeted animals and children can’t be harmed.
in 2011 when the Northwest Agriculture Business Center could no longer support it. We created an organic seed development program that is gaining regional attention. In 2012 alone, we brought in almost $250,000 in grants for projects and programs that improve the farm, in line with the community driven Master Site Plan that was approved by the Port of Coupeville. Last, but certainly not least, we earned a strong endorsement from the Greenbank Farm’s business tenants. We believe that this record of accomplishment speaks for itself. We have and will continue to focus on the health and vitality of Greenbank Farm, and the wide variety of opportunities it affords the Port of Coupeville as well as all who care for this very special place.

Benefit boosts slide victims To the editor: With only six short, frenetic days of planning, The Whidbey Slide Relief Fund Benefit was a great success. It is amazing to see an entire island come together for a common cause. It takes a whole community to respond to disaster and the needs of our neighbors. When all segments of a community rally to support victims of disaster it can not only mitigate unspeakable loss, but it can also strengthen the bonds of the entire community. When citizens, business owners, inter-faith agencies and governmental agencies take responsibility and act together, we are all better off. What we have seen over the last 10 days is a shining example of that
whole community approach. Thank you to Gov. Jay Inslee, U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, state Sen. Barbara Bailey, and state Rep. Norma Smith, we appreciate your concern and your presence on Saturday and look forward to your continued support. Thank you to Port of Coupeville Commissioner Marshall Bronson, county commissioners Helen PriceJohnson, Jill Johnson and Kelly Emerson, Public Works, Red Cross and Central Whidbey Fire and Rescue for your responsiveness. Special thanks to the 50-plus volunteers who made this event happen, especially the hard-working culinary specialists from NAS Whidbey who gave up their day off. Thank you Bulldog and the Johnny Bulldog Band (you always find it in your heart to make it happen), Ciao, Columbia Distributing, Coupeville Chamber of Commerce, Jason Tritt and

Love protects better than guns ever can By Heidi Hoelting
I am disturbed to learn that a gun shop has moved into Ken’s Korner. I have been patronizing businesses at this shopping center for over 30 years, and will continue to do so. But I will have to avert my eyes and shield my soul every time I go to other businesses. I have nothing against this businessman or responsible gun owners, per se. I am not trying to take away their rights to own and sell guns. I take issue with the NRA and others stonewalling gun control reform, however. The NRA and our nation’s anti-gun control zealots are like the defenders of cigarette smoking in the past, those who championed their right to saturate the public air with toxic fumes over my right to taste my food and protect my health. Gun advocates pollute my world with danger and evil; they violate my

is highly unlikely, I propose common-sense gun control measures instead. First, remove from society all weapons that could be used for purposes other than simple selfprotection, target practice or game hunting. Second, before purchasing and registering a gun through legal means, prove that you have been cleared of prior felonies, mental illness or anti-social behavior; that you have been educated about gun safety and that you practice proper gun storage and maintenance; that you have complete control over your emotions in the presence of guns, drugs and alcohol; and that you are a person of good will who is committed to loving your neighbor as yourself. Then, and only then, will you be issued a permit. Of course, no member of our species could pass all of these tests, so that brings us back to Proposal No. 1. Guns cannot protect us from the evil that dwells in our hearts. The only real protection is self-mastery and the transformation of that evil into love.

values and my sense of well-being. Of course, the real culprit is the arms industry that funds the NRA and the anti-gun control politicians. They are all motivated by greed, knowing they can make heaps of money off the fears and baser inclinations of their customers. The majority of gun owners support reasonable gun control. But too many seem oblivious to how our national gun culture undermines society. Guns are not playthings, works of art, or reassuring symbols of law and order in my mind, but symbols of violence and evil. When I see a gun, a chill runs down my spine. I am reminded of all the horrific murders that I have read about in the papers, the wonton acts of psychopaths and paranoid idiots, to say nothing of the ravages of war on a global scale. I think of my 6-year-old granddaughter going off to kindergarten in complete trust and innocence, and my heart aches because I know we cannot protect her from harm. If I were Ruler of the World, I would outlaw guns entirely. But as this

Urgency spurs 70th minute goal By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter
Read, Pisana rally in team sweep over Wolves By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter
Feeling the pressure late, South Whidbey’s offense finally found its fight. The Falcon soccer team broke away from a 1-1 tie with rival Coupeville in the 70th minute and won 3-1 Tuesday. Speed was the difference for South Whidbey. Sprinting down the sideline, Falcon sophomore Bryce Auburn beat two defenders and chipped in the go-ahead shot. “We just wanted a win,” Auburn said. “For our seniors, it’s their last time against our rivals.” “Normally when I try to do that I try to cross it in, but I couldn’t see anyone.” Beating Coupeville a second time secured South Whidbey’s spot as the top 1A team in the Cascade Conference. South Whidbey never trailed in the match. Sam Turpin chased after a deflected shot on the outside and turned it back to the box for senior Stephen Lyons to score in the 16th. Celebrations were short for South Whidbey. About a minute later, the Wolves evened the score with a Sean Donley penalty kick from 24 yards that got by Falcon keeper Andrew Holt. Just prior to the break, senior defender Cameron Coupe wowed the Falcon faithful with a goal-go-goal drive and a saved shot on goal. It was one of the few early bright spots for South

Whidbey. “We weren’t moving up as a team,” Auburn said of the Falcons’ possession woes that led to Coupeville’s goal. “We were just trying to push the ball through.” Auburn’s go-ahead goal in the 70th started with a major defensive stop. Defender Oliver Saunsaucie chased Nathan Kircher, having pushed past midfield to pressure Coupeville’s defense, stole the ball and sent it down the line. That led to Auburn’s touch on the line, beating a pair of
Wolves and drawing keeper Kole Kellison off the line for his open look at the net. “I was a little high (up field) because the coaches wanted me to play high, so I had to hustle back and challenge him,” Saunsaucie said. “In the moment, I was celebrating. It was just a good win for the team.” Once the ball found the back of the net, the Falcons found their grit. Senior Trey Adams had a one-on-one look taken away by Wolf defender Luke Pelant’s slide.
Continuing their pressure, the Falcons were awarded a corner kick. Guy Sparkman sent the ball into the box where Coupeville was able to deflect the first shot, but Lyons stopped it at the 18 and rocketed in his second goal of the night. The victory brought South Whidbey to within striking distance of third overall behind Archbishop Murphy and Cedarcrest. The deciding game was Friday night against Lakewood, which won 2-0 on March 29.
Playing in their first varsity match, South Whidbey’s Katherine Read and Sophia Pisana rallied to beat Coupeville’s Ana and Ivy Luvera, 6-7 (5-7), 6-4, 6-2. Their come-frombehind victory sealed South Whidbey’s 5-0 team sweep over its island rival Coupeville on Tuesday. Play could have ended much sooner had the Luvera sisters not staged a remarkable comeback in the first set. Pisana and Read led 5-2. But mistakes cost the Falcons, and the Luveras seized their chance in the tiebreaker. “Before we knew it, we were down a set after being a point away from winning the first set,” said Falcon head coach Karyle Kramer. Pisana and Read regrouped in the second set and improved their groundstroke placement in the third. “Both freshmen listened well and adjusted a few key strategy pieces,” Kramer said. “Doubles isn’t about strokes as much is it is about strategy.” “Katherine started the season brand new to tennis and Sophia had just a little experience,” Kramer said. “Both have improved tremendously. In addition to the players’ hard work, I give Coach (Jenny)Gochanour a lot of credit for bringing out the best in both of these

Second doubles team Hannah Calderwood and Isla Dubendorf rolled against Wolves McKenzie Bailey and Sydney Autio, 6-0, 6-1. In singles, senior Hayley Newman defeated Allie Hannigan, 6-0, 6-1; and Carlie Newman, a sophomore, won 6-0, 6-0.

Give our nesting avian friends a helping hand WHIDBEY BIRDING Frances Wood A pair of spunky brown Bewick’s wrens is building a nest just outside our front door. Quietly and furtively they sneak through the low shrubs near the side of our house, beaks stuffed with dry grass, and disappear into their dwelling, a plain wooden birdhouse about 4 feet off the porch. And they aren’t the only birds busy nesting. Eagles and crows soar overhead with sticks and twigs in their beaks. A noisy flicker drills on our metal post caps making a beautifulto-him breeding tattoo. To me it has become a brain rattling irritation. Mother robin secretly disappears into the dense Douglas fir tree with a mouthful of dried grass.
Hummingbirds glean spiders’ webs for their expandable lichen-camouflaged abodes. While driving east of the Cascades I recently watched a black-billed magpie perched atop a horse. The bird plucked rusty-red hairs from the horse’s mane to line its nest. A friend hangs up a mesh bag filled with the hair that she has brushed from her dogs. I used to do the same with lint from the dryer but have recently learned that the non-natural fibers from most of our clothing, towels, etc. could cause problems for the birds. Now I hang a ball of pure cotton, which I purchase at Wild Birds Unlimited. Any day now the migrating barn swallows will arrive from down south and begin slapping beakfuls of mud on the light fixture above the front door. I’ll hang strips of caution tape from the porch ceiling to help usher them around to the back deck to construct their messy nests. The tree and violet-green swallows will begin fluttering around their nest boxes and I’ll cajole my husband into climbing a ladder, which I will hold steady, to clean out the swallow boxes. Putting up with these small inconveniences pales

compared to the joy we receive from inviting the birds into our garden, watching their antics, admiring their spectacular plumage, hearing their songs and seeing the young fledge out into the world. I’m always surprised when I discover a nest in an unexpected place. Several years ago a pair of wrens built a nest in our potting shed while it was under construction. We’d left for a week and upon our return we discovered an incubating mother sitting on a nest in a paper bag fresh from Ace Hardware full of door hinges and a box of nails. My husband had left the bag on the shed’s counter before we left town and the wrens had moved right in. Wrens have nested in old boots. Juncos often select a flowerpot by the front door. I recently heard a presentation on birds’ nests by
Idie Ulsh, a longtime Seattle Audubon member. She showed photos of a bird’s nest made entirely from iron filings, a nest woven with strips from a blue plastic tarp, and a nest constructed in the unzipped pouch under the seat of a bicycle. My favorite photo showed an aluminum washtub nailed high up in a tree. The eyes and ear tufts of a great-horned owl peeked over the rim. All these birds have had to adjust to our human-altered environment and have found ways to nest in and around our houses and communities. Their resourcefulness astounds me and their commitment to nesting humbles me. But still, I worry about our spring nesting birds.

Because of this, Whidbey Audubon has joined Audubon groups all over the country to encourage cat owners to keep their pets indoors. It’s especially important to keep cats indoors

Mo’s Pub seeks to ease ‘amplified’ noise By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter
SOUTH WHIDBEY ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IMPORTANT KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION DATES
Parent Registration Night Tuesday, April 23rd, 7PM
Mo’s Pub made some noise again with Langley City Council this week. The pub’s owner, Maureen Cooke, asked the council to consider revising the recently approved noise ordinance. All because of one word — amplified — which she said gave her “heartburn.” To date, Mo’s Pub has applied for and received two live, amplified music permits. Cooke hired doormen to monitor loitering outside so as to avoid a rowdy crowd bothering neighbors on Second Street. Langley has yet to receive a noise complaint regarding the music. “We haven’t had one, single, solitary complaint,” Cooke told the council. Beyond full rock bands, complete with electric guitars, drums, microphones, bass and even the occasional keyboard, mellow music requires some form of amplification. And Cooke argued those shouldn’t need a per-

The council considered using a decibel meter to track how loud too loud could be in a revised ordinance. Those are spotty, at best, city leaders said. “It’s very, very complex,”
said Jeff Arango, Langley’s planning director. “Sometimes if you bump into it, it spikes.” Cooke said she has canceled all her upcoming live music performances until the issue is resolved. Councilwoman Rene Neff thanked Cooke for placing small receptacles in the alley for cigarette butts.

A small shrine sits near the fence, only feet from where Rhianna Kinglet Dickson Hobbs, 10, died suddenly April 15. A vigil was held Wednesday at her Freeland home.
MOURNERS CONTINUED FROM A1
By Thursday afternoon, the reader board at Whidbey Children’s Theater in Langley paid tribute to Rhianna who spent countless hours acting and performing there. Ahna Dunn-Wilder, a director at the theater, said Rhianna connected with new friends quickly. “She was always incredibly social, giving and engaging,” Dunn-Wilder said. “An incredible shining light.” She recalled the intensity of Rhianna on stage. “My fondest memory is of Rhianna as the evil witch in ‘Sleeping Beauty.’ She shone,” Dunn-Wilder said. “She had this incredible power and passion on stage. She chilled all the little kids in the audience.” The loss has left a big hole in the ranks of
the theater. “We from the children’s theater send all our love to Lynette, Rick and Ryder, and want them to know that she will live on in all of us,” Dunn-Wilder said. At the vigil in front of the family’s home, the entire crowd joined in a short chorus of “Amazing Grace.” A celebration of life for Rhianna is set for 1 p.m. Sunday, April 21 in the gymnasium at South Whidbey High School, 5675 S. Maxwelton Road, Langley. In lieu of flowers, her family requests memorial contributions to Rhianna’s best-loved local organizations: Whidbey Children’s Theater, South Whidbey Centaurs 4-H Club and Whidbey Island Rescue for Equines (WIRE).

LAW & JUSTICE CONTINUED FROM A1
Jail operations hit The jail, which is under the umbrella of the Island County Sheriff’s Office, is no exception. Administrator De Dennis spelled out the problems facing his facility during the commissioners’ annual tour of the jail Monday afternoon. Low staffing and all the headaches that follow, such as overtime costs, officer burnout and security requirements associated with big court cases, are the biggest problem facing the facility, he said. “My lieutenants are saying, ‘De, we can’t do this much longer,’” Dennis said. “I’m really concerned how much longer I can go on,” he said. Additional corrections officers are just the tip of the list. He also cited the need for new computers, software upgrades, video-courtroom equipment and a new fingerprint identification system. Sheriff Mark Brown called the situation at the jail an “ongoing organizational nightmare” and credited Dennis with holding the operation together despite his limited resources. Last June, the Island County Law and Justice Council recommended the board move forward with a ballot measure that would increase sales tax by threetenths of 1 percent, generating about $2.2 million per year. The board was unwilling to support the request at the time, citing a host of issues. There was discussion about whether or not a property tax would be more appropriate and others worried there was insufficient time to prepare for a successful fall ballot measure. The delay ensured that the law and justice community would not get financial relief for more than a year because funding from a successful ballot measure doesn’t start to flow in until the following year. That means that if the board doesn’t put the issue before voters this fall, a 2014 ballot approved by the public would not result in additional funding until 2015. Timeliness is an issue and a serious discussion needs to begin soon, said Banks, during the recent presentation to the commissioners. “What the Law and Justice Council really needs to know is where the board is on this issue,” Banks said. Banks confirmed that the council has yet to make

Property tax pushed First and foremost, it would probably propose a property
tax as opposed to a sales tax, he said. A sales tax would not raise enough money and what funds would be raised would need to be shared with neighboring municipalities. Banks said the funding needed is about $2.6 million. Most would go to the
Sheriff’s Office to hire additional police and corrections officers, costing about $2.3 million, while the rest would be split among the prosecutor’s office and the courts. According to Banks, the council’s co-chairman, the group would also likely pro-

the option of approving or rejecting a measure first, and that can only happen if the commissioners give the green light. And according to Banks, the clock is ticking. “If they are going to take action, it needs to be soon,” Banks said.

CINDERELLA
Dance theatre showcases versatility DANCE & CHOREOGRAPHY SHOWCASE
By MICHAELA MARX WHEATLEY Staff reporter
T
he dancers of Whidbey Island Dance Theatre are ready to spread some enchantment with their production of Cinderella during the annual Dance & Choreography Showcase. From Friday, April 26 through Sunday, April 28, the company will show its versatility in the beloved story ballet, as well as in eight short pieces ranging from jazz to contemporary styles. “Whidbey Island Dance Theatre has been hard at work since we closed the curtain on our 20th anniversary of The Nutcracker, and we’re really proud of this year’s Cinderella and Dance & Choreography Showcase,” said Amy Lehman, assistant artistic director. Lehman is in her second year at the helm of the company alongside long-time artistic director Char Brown. Audiences, Lehman said, will be impressed with the body of work that will be shown. “I’m amazed at how versatile our dancers are at ending one ballet and immediately switching gears to another,” she said. “It’s like there’s a switch in their brain that turns off Nutcracker-mode, and turns on Cinderella-mode. This is great training for any of them that want to continue in the dance world, as most professional companies perform several works throughout the year, but it’s great to see our young dancers handling it so well.” The dancers, most of them still in middle or high school, spent countless hours preparing for the spring concert that has them going from contemporary or jazz to classical ballet in no time. “Their brains and bodies are being pushed to the max,” Lehman said. “Char and I are quite proud of the fact that the large majority of our company doesn’t neglect their schoolwork and gets good grades which is no small feat, considering how many hours they spend taking classes and rehearsing.” WIDT has been developing its production of the ballet over the last few years. The ballet to the score by composer Sergey Prokofiev has everything audiences expect: evil stepsisters, a pumpkin carriage, the glass slipper, and of course Cinderella will go from sweeping floors to
sweeping the price off his feet. “This year’s show is special because we have Asha (Asharaine Machala, who was instrumental during the early Nutcracker years) back choreographing on the company again,” Lehman said. She choreographed a brand-new court scene, as well as a pas de deux on Cinderella and the prince. “She had taken a very long hiatus,” Lehman said, “and probably thought she was out of the Whidbey dance scene, but is now back, working her magic on the company once again. She’s a phenomenal choreographer, and just seems to have a knack for knowing how to make dancers look good, while still creating a work of art.” Machala, who returned to choreographing for WIDT after ten years, is inspired by what the latest generation of dancers
Caitlin Christensen, Elliauna Madsen, William Christopher, Christine Monaghan, and Faith O’Brochta are the stars of the Cinderella production. Michael Stadler photo
brings to stage. “They are such strong dancers: I call the girls Amazons sometimes — with love — because they tackle movement so strongly … All in all, I am blessed to be able to do this once more, again,” she said. Lehman said this year the leads are danced by experienced company dancers and guest artists. Longtime company member Elliauna Madsen is Cinderella. Cornish College of the Arts senior Will Christopher is the prince and alumna Brittany Falso returns as the Fairy Godmother. “We are fortunate enough to have William Christopher joining us as the prince, and the pas de deux between him and Cinderella is technical and challenging, but yet still charming and sweet,” Lehman said. “Charlene and I watched them in
rehearsal a few weeks ago, and they have a natural chemistry between the two of them — after the rehearsal Will gave Elli a hug and told her what a great job she had done … a very sweet moment between dance partners,” she added. Cinderella is eager to bring it to stage. “What I really like most about ballet is how steps that seem so complicated can come together and form this elegant and simple form of art,” Madsen said. Madsen has been part of the Cinderella production from the beginning. This will be her final performance at WIDT — for now. “I have enjoyed all the years that I have spent performing with WIDT. It’s like my home away from home. Doing this last production of my high school years is SEE DANCE, A15

going to be difficult and I’m really going to miss it.” Small adjustments have been made to the roles of a couple of other beloved characters. “We have changed the role of the stepsisters a little bit this year, to bring out the naturally hilarious combination of senior dancer Caitlin Christensen and freshman dancer Faith O’Brochta,” Lehman said. “They just so happen to be the tallest and shortest dancers in our full company, and our choreographers have done a great job playing up the natural oddities between the two of them.” The showcase portion of the show, which features short pieces of choreography showing many styles of dance will underscore the depth of the company. “We have eight showcase pieces this year,” Lehman said. The show will feature work by resident choreographers Lehman, Machala and Jamee Pitts; guest choreographer Lara Littlefield; an emerging work by Madsen; and a restaging of a piece by Ayesha Fuentes. The annual alumni dance is set by Karli Hunter and Pitts to the popular songs “Thrift Shop” and “Harlem Shake” and promises to become another audience favorite. Both the ballet and the showcase are evidence of what Whidbey Island Dance Theatre is all about: developing outstanding young dancers and choreographers. Lehman said choreographer Pitts is a prime example of this. Pitts who took her first dancing steps at her mother Char Brown’s

dance studio has become an acclaimed teacher and choreographer herself. “She’s Char’s daughter, and seems to have gotten the dancing gene in the family, but has made a name for herself by growing up into an amazing artist,” Lehman said about her friend. “We had an outside adjudicator (Kristen Legg of Redd Legg Dance of Seattle) come and evaluate our company in February, and she had extremely high praises for Pitts’ choreography.” Furthermore, many of the young dancers performing in the WIDT shows go on to study dance and perform all over the country as professional dancers. Don’t miss the talented dancers in action during the four shows. To rub elbows with the performers, the company invites all to a Sunday Brunch, April 28 catered by Whidbey Institute Chef Christyn Johnson.

Lots of familiar faces to open comedy show Comedy Island shares stage with comedy stars By MICHAELA MARX WHEATLEY Staff reporter Two of the Northwest’s biggest comedians come to Whidbey Island Center of the Arts for a one-night comedy show April 24, but a group of island originals may just steal the show. Comedy Island, an adult improv group, is the opening act for the WICA comedy show featuring John Keister, of KING-TV’s Almost Alive, Brooks Smith of Mad TV, Comedy Central and Almost Live. “We are the local spice for the Almost Live tour so they set the table, we’re just salt and pepper,” said cast member Vicki Robin. “Comedy Island is primarily an improv group which means we make scenes up from audience suggestions on the spot.” The company came together in the spring of 2011 and has had a blast

since, she said. The recipe is simple. Actors are thrown in an unusual set-up and work their way through, stretching their acting abilities while ensuing hilarity. “Drama arises from conflict,” she said. “Improv rides on actor’s ability to say yes to their scene partner. Actors need to attend to deepening their character. Improvers focus on making their scene partner look good.” Robin said actors in plays bring to life someone else’s words, characters and situ-
ations. “In improv the scene arises from whatever you can drag up from inside you,” she said. “We practice the skills of improv — say yes, create vivid characters and locations, develop a narrative — but we have no idea what will happen till it happens. We are constantly surprised and keep saying yes and go for the ride.” Her fellow company members agree. Company member Marta Mulholland said it is a great opportunity for islanders to see improv.

there.” Still, such is the nature of improv theater, actors never know what to expect. “We surprise each other all the time,” Mulholland said. Robin said viewers can’t go wrong with Comedy Island. “We are all funny. We crack each other up regularly,” Robin said. “We love one another’s amazing improv choices. We work as a troupe, not as individual stars. We’ve stuck with it for two years. It’s a big scary risk to step out on stage
with nothing but a scene partner and a minimal game structure; you develop a lot of trust.” Keith Mack will emcee the evening. Meet and greet Keister and McBeth at Mo’s Pub in Langley from 5:30 from 6:30 p.m., and in the WICA lobby following the show.

Meet with Quakers in Freeland Whidbey Island Friends Meeting (Quakers) holds its regular meeting for worship every Sunday from 4 to 5 p.m. at the Unitarian Universalist building, 20103 Highway 525, about two miles north of Freeland. This time of silent worship together may include spoken messages. Children’s program is also available. On the first Sunday of each month there is singing at 3:30 p.m. The founder of Quakers, George Fox, wrote: “Walk cheerfully over the world, answering that of God in everyone.” Visit www.whidbey quakers.org or email Tom Ewell at tewell@whidbey. com.
Atonement and its usefulness Join the Christian Science Society Sunday, April 21, to explore Mary Baker Eddy’s definition of atonement and its usefulness today in destroying sickness and other disruptions to our lives. Services begin at 10:30 a.m. at 15910 Highway 525, just north of Bayview and across from Useless Bay Road. Sunday school is available at the same time. “Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be propitiation for our sins” (I John 4:10).
RECORD STAFF Dr. Craig Koester, the foremost Lutheran scholar on the Book of Revelation and a professor at Luther Seminary, in St. Paul, Minn., is this year’s guest lecturer for Trinity Lutheran Church’s Lecture Series being held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Sunday, April 21 and from 7 to 8:30 p.m. Monday, April 22, in the main church sanctuary off Highway 525 in Freeland. Revelation is a Biblical book often associated with the antichrist, Armageddon and the end of the world. Such scenes are featured in popular media, and often fuel a sense of fear and confusion, states a news release from the church. “Dr. Koester provides a careful look at how these theories came about and offers a more promising, less fearful view of what Revelation describes and how it reveals God’s character,” said Pastor Jim Lindus. In Monday evening’s lecture Koester will explore how Revelation uses contrasting symbols such as images of a Lamb and a Beast, and Babylon and the New Jerusalem to shape ways of seeing the world. He explores how Revelation offers a significant critique of the world as it is, along with a vision of the power of God that calls people to renewed
Dr. Craig Koester
hope for the future. Koester is the author of “Revelation and the End of All Things,” and is completing a major commentary on Revelation for Yale University Press. Other works include a landmark commentary on the Book of Hebrews and a translation of Revelation for the Common English Bible. A featured “Great Courses” professor, Koester has three DVD courses offered on the popular website which tapes the best professorial lectures in the country at leading universities and offers them for sale to the public.

“Fairway Point is a great family community. There is a very diverse mix of friendly families that unite the community and make it home. FWP has very nice common areas that can be used for group events or just relaxing. Our house is beautiful and very well constructed. The open floor plan is perfect for our family and having the kids bedrooms over the garage prevents noise from the kitchen or living room from disturbing their sleep. We love our house and Fairway Point!�
