Inn, restaurant, elevator among Schell’s harbor ideas By JIM LARSEN Record editor Langley businessman and developer Paul Schell dropped some new ideas about the future of the Langley harbor Thursday morning at a Port of South Whidbey commissioners meeting in Freeland. His appearance may have been expected but it wasn’t on the agenda, which listed project permitting and mitigation as the main topic. It was a rocky start for Schell when he saw a reporter in the room and stated it was too soon to write about his ideas and that “premature press will kill it.” He was told that was not possible. “It’s a tentative potential site plan,” Schell said, clearly irritated. Port President Curt Gordon pointed
out it was an open public meeting, and ultimately Schell decided to sit down and air his proposal. Schell was accompanied by Eric Richmond of Flatrock Designs, a Langley architectural firm. “This is just for fun,” Richmond said of the three-story model building Schell presented. “This is the Boatyard Inn expansion.” Schell, owner of the Inn at Langley, has a partner in the Boatyard Inn. His plan is to build a three-story structure on a vacant lot next to the inn. The bottom floor would allow the inn to expand, while the top two floors would become the retirement home of Schell and his wife Pam. Schell has wanted to purchase some port-owned airspace for the building as the property line was questionable, but backed off that idea when
state regulators made any airspace purchase a time consuming, complex process. Instead, the building was slightly redesigned. After Schell presented a number of ideas, the outcome for the public would look something like this: Langley would build a viewing platform on Cascade Avenue at Second Street, overlooking the bluff. The public could walk down a short handicapped accessible trail or bridge to a glass and metal elevator which could carry eight people down to the marina area. They could walk directly to the marina or stop at a small cafe Schell hopes to build. He would purchase the Drake’s Landing building and remove its add-ons, leaving the original rustic “salt box” design. The elevator would eliminate the

Parking is the major headache when marina improvements are talked about. “This is a standard elevator,”
Schell said, estimating its cost at $140,000 compared to the funicular’s $250,000. It would cost an additional $80,000 to $100,000 for the “bridge” from Cascade Avenue to the elevator. The city already has some grant money for a funicular, SEE HARBOR, A6
Food service devours school budget, district seeks new vendor By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter Every slice of pizza or salad students on the free and reduced lunch program eat costs South Whidbey schools. Last year, the South Whidbey School District spent $218,000 more than its food service revenue on feeding students. “My concern is $218,000 every year in the hole is a lot of money,” said Jill Engstrom, board member. Enrollment in free and reduced meals may be an indicator of the tough times faced by South Whidbey families. In 2006, 61 percent of lunches were paid in full by students. In 2012, 57 percent of students received reduced or free meals from the schools. To an extent, that’s a cost the school district is willing to swallow. “It’s a misrepresentation to talk about it as a loss, because it’s a service to feed our students,” said Superintendent Jo Moccia. Rising costs have the district looking for a food service vendor to replace Chartwells. The school food specialists have served South Whidbey schools for years, and its current contract was $269,000. Board members unanimously approved a food service request for proposal at their meeting April 24. Even six years ago when most students and their families could afford full-cost meals, the district lost almost $194,000 on food service. The one constant from then to now is labor, which continues to rise in cost, district leaders said at the school board meeting.

Russell Daly feasts on a roast beef sandwich during lunch at Langley Middle School. To his left are Maxwell Dodd and Jadan White. Across the table are Michael Maddux and Brent de Wolf. All sixth-grade students eat lunch together after a brief trial at school-wide lunches much of this school year. Food service may change next year. Each meal costs the school district almost $6, most of which is tied to labor cost, compared to the meal’s cost of about $3. In the
2011-12 school year, $254,451 was spent on food service labor, which accounted for about 82 percent of total food service costs. The total
expense of food service approached $528,000, according to school district documents. “Food service has been a losing proposition for a long time, to be honest,” said Dan Poolman, assistant superintendent. The district’s nutrition committee reported on the quality and frequency of food service use, nutrition, and physical education at the schools. For the past six years, between 30 and 40 percent of students ate school-prepared meals. A couple of students shared their approval of the food. Maverick Christensen, a junior at South Whidbey High School, professed to be a school cafeteria connoisseur. He eats school-made sandwiches almost daily at lunch. “It’s something I do every day and I see lots of kids do every day,” Christensen said. One small way the district hopes to change its food service program is by collecting outstanding charges. About $10,000 is owed to South Whidbey schools from the previous school year. Students are allowed to charge meals to their student account if they do not have money to pay for lunch. Left unchecked and unaccountable, the charges accumulated until a large bill was left unpaid. Elementary and middle school students will be limited to three charges in the future. If they are unable to pay and those charges remain unpaid, students will be given a peanut butter and jelly sandwich with milk, or a grilled cheese sandwich and milk. Students at the high school will not receive such leniency, SEE FOOD, A6

In recent years, illegal crabbing was reported and cited by the sheriff’s office in Holmes Harbor and Clinton. A few years ago a routine traffic stop took a bizarre turn when the offender fled, drove his car into the woods where he dumped several coolers full of crab. Crownover recalled the bizarre sight of crabs scurrying around on the forest floor, and the even stranger duty of the deputies to transport as many of the crabs as possible to Puget Sound. — Ben Watanabe, staff reporter

bellingham man leaps from deception Pass No note found in man’s car By JESSIE STENSLAND Staff reporter
A 28-year-old Bellingham man committed suicide Thursday morning by leaping from Deception Pass Bridge, according to Island County Coroner Robert Bishop. Bishop said a man driving over Deception Pass saw a pedestrian walking along the bridge. After passing the pedestrian, the driver said he looked in his rearview mirror and noticed the man had disappeared. The driver got out of his car and looked over the side of the bridge. He spotted the man in the cold, swirling waters
below. The bridge is approximately 180 feet above the water. A witness called 9-1-1 at 10:11 a.m. Bishop said the Deception Pass State Park staff and North Whidbey Fire and Rescue responders had boats in the water almost immediately and quickly recovered the body. Bishop said investigators found a car parked at the bridge they suspect was left by the jumper, but no note or message was found inside of it. Bishop said the man lived in Bellingham for years. It’s unknown if the jumper had any connection to Whidbey or the Fidalgo area, Bishop said.
Ecology takes opinions on shoreline planning By JUSTIN BURNETT Staff reporter The public will have another chance to weigh in on Island County’s recently adopted shoreline master program at a meeting in Coupeville next week. Adopted by the commissioners late last year, the plan has to pass muster of the state Department of Ecology before it can go into effect. The agency is seeking public comment and will hold an open house and hearing Wednesday, May 1. The open house begins at 6 p.m., followed by the public hearing at 7 p.m. Both will be held in the Island County Commissioners Hearing Room, 1 N.E. Sixth St. Shoreline master programs, which are required under state law, guide development along the waterfront. The county’s program applies to 210 miles of marine and fresh water
shoreline. The commissioners wrapped up an exhaustive two-year effort to update the program this past December when the board approved the plan in a 2-1 vote. It’s now up to Ecology officials to decide if the plan is up to snuff. While several issues were hotly debated during the update process, one of those that saw much discussion but little disagreement concerned rules for non-native, fin-fish net pens. The board banned them outright and the decision has been a source of heartburn for Ecology regulators. The department has long held the position that they are a preferred water dependent use and cannot be simply outlawed. Environmental activists, such as Steve Erickson with Whidbey Environmental Action Network, say the upcoming meeting could be decisive as enough pub-

lic comment could sway Ecology decision makers. “Of course we’ll be there,” Erickson said. “It’s real important.” Should Ecology change their position, it could have a ripple effect on master programs in other counties, such as Jefferson County. Their plan also included a ban but approval by Ecology has been held up for years. While Erickson said he’s hopeful that enough public comment would be enough
to turn the tide, he is not too optimistic. “We’re expecting this to go to court,” he said. Ecology will be accepting public comment on the county’s program until 5 p.m., May 24.

FERRIES Ferry rate hike kicks in May 1 Washington State Ferries’ peak season begins Wednesday, May 1, with an additional 25 percent surcharge applied to full fare vehicle/driver tickets. It’s even higher, 35 percent, on the Anacortes to San Juan Islands routes. Peak season rates are unchanged from 2012, according to a State Ferries news release. The surcharge does not affect passenger fares or frequent user multi-ride fares. The seasonal surcharge helps pay for increased operational costs that come with increased traffic
May through September. For a driver of a standard sized vehicle, the cost on the Clinton to Mukilteo route will rise from $6.35 to $7.75. A 20-ride commuter card will still cost $126.60 for an average-size sedan, which works out to $6.33 per crossing. On the Coupeville to Port Townsend route, cost for a car and driver will rise from $8.20 to $10.25. The 20-ride commuter card will remain $164.20 or $8.21 per crossing.

around Whidbey, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife wants to hear it. Fish and Wildlife will accept public comments through May 31 on a proposal that would reduce the length of the fishing season for cabezon in Puget Sound. Cabezon are bottomfish that inhabit rocky areas of Puget Sound. The fish can measure up to 30 inches and weigh up to 25 pounds. The proposed rule would limit the season in marine areas 4-11 and 13 to May 1 through June 15. Currently anglers can fish for cabezon in Marine Area 4 year-round and in marine areas 5-11 and 13 from May 1 through Nov. 30. Retention of cabezon is closed year-round in Hood Canal (Marine Area 12). To review and comment on the proposed change, visit WDFW’s website at http://wdfw.wa.gov/ fishing/regulations/ cabezon/. Earlier this year, the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission voted to reduce the catch limit of cabezon to one fish a day in marine areas 4-11 and 13 and prohibit the retention of cabezon measuring less than 18 inches in length. The commission sought additional public input on restricting the cabezon season.

Editorial Outdoor markets in the spotlight Shopping outdoors has been a growing trend on South Whidbey ever since South Whidbey Tilth started the first farmers market 42 years ago. Tilth has moved a few times, finally finding a permanent home at the corner of Thompson Road and Highway 525. It also moved to Sunday, giving it a day without competition from other markets. It opens tomorrow. It still has a sense of earthiness, thanks in part to the compost tea, that others can’t match. And who else would open its market with a dance around the May pole? The first vegetables of spring are always enjoyable to peruse. Rhubarb is of particular interest, looking like red celery of questionable cooking character. Cooks have solved the problem by coming up with rhubarb pie, proving the adage that if you put enough sugar in it, anything tastes good. Today is the Bayview Farmers Market, starting its 11th year behind the Bayview Cash Store. It’s more upscale but with plenty of home-grown, organic food to go with the baked goods, jewelry and fashions. Both our farmers markets are excellent places to hang out, learn from the friendly farmers and meet friends. The increasing number of people growing and sharing their own food is one of the bright spots of South Whidbey’s society and commerce in recent decades. Old farm skills on the verge of extinction have come to life. We we can watch sheep shearing, weaving, goat milking and other processes. It’s good for the kids to see from whence their food and fiber really comes. Wait just a little longer and a couple of newer outdoor markets will be available. The Langley Second Street Market opens June 1, shutting down one of the city’s two main drags so visitors can stop and smell the roses, vegetables and art. It’s another outlet for our creators and farmers and its second year will be better than the first. The Clinton Thursday Market opens July 11. It’s inaugural year in 2012 was successful with a mix of food dealers and local merchants selling their wares. The number of awnings will likely increase this year as it’s nicely located on a grassy spot along the highway. It gives ferry people a place to stop and locals a place to get together. Definitely worthwhile. All these markets make South Whidbey a happier, more prosperous place to live. Organizers work long, thankless hours to make them happen and deserve the appreciation and support of the community.

What made it less stressful was the abilities of the carriers that were here. Of course, I had to hire some new carriers for certain routes and we had to make significant changes to other routes.

Navy noise too much To the editor: A lot of people ask, “What’s the big deal about the jet noise at OLF?” They also tend to follow up with, “You knew about the noise when you moved in, you even had to sign a paper saying you did.” We’re glad you asked. Our answer can be summed up this way: Imagine that you moved into a house with a 24-hour go-cart racetrack next door, but that you listen for a bit, really love the place and decide you can live with the noise. But then they start to race Indy cars! And they have not updated the tracks! Would you be upset? You bet. Would you try to stop them? You bet. MICHAEL MONSON Coupeville

Power and cable lines would have to be buried, an idea the port commissioners liked. Another idea was to move the public restrooms, a move the commissioners thought would be too difficult in the near future. Costs would also be shared among private property owners affected, including the Boatyard Inn and the nearby Nichols Brothers Boat Builders facility, and Schell asked the port to pay its share even though it doesn’t have to pay taxes should a Local Improvement District be created.

Radisch, Weeks pull off rally, secure top district seed First loss
By BEN WATANABE Staff reporter Playing on one of the first truly hot days and through illness, Tess Radisch fought off just enough rallies for her partner Amelia Weeks to close the set April 25. The South Whidbey girls tennis team’s win over Blaine was big. Radisch and Weeks, the Falcons’ top doubles team, secured the top seed in the district tournament by beating Blaine’s Emily Grayston and Alex Henderson, 2-6, 6-4, 7-5. More importantly, Falcon head coach Karyle Kramer said, they were pushed to their limits and came out on top. “This was the best team they’ve played all season, so they really had to step it up and play their best tennis,” Kramer said. “And they did.” Blaine’s squad was able to keep the ball away from the Falcons’ net player with lobs and crosscourt shots in the first set. It was the first dropped set of the season for Radisch and Weeks, who are not accustomed to playing from a deficit. They regrouped in the sec-

Their win, the last varsity match with the team score tied 2-2, gave South Whidbey the victory over Blaine. South Whidbey’s other victories came from the sin-

Colton Sterba hurls against Cedarcrest on April 22. He pitched a shutout through four innings.
SWHS baseball drops pair of one-run games Fighting to finish with a .500 record, South Whidbey baseball suffered a blow to its chances with a pair of one-run losses this week. The Falcons lost 5-4 to
gles matches. Senior Hayley Newman rolled against Blaine’s Saskia Dolk, 6-0, 6-1. Her sister, sophomore Carlie Newman, mirrored her with a 6-0, 6-1 victory against Blaine’s Elizabeth Berry. South Whidbey had one other closely contested match at third doubles. Kramer continued to circulate players into the final varsity spot, this time
Cedarcrest on Tuesday and 4-3 to Granite Falls on Wednesday. Regardless, South Whidbey owns its best record in years. Last season, the Falcons finished with only two wins. Now the Falcons are tied for fourth place with Granite Falls at 6-10 in Cascade Conference games. Against Cedarcrest (13-3 conference; 13-5 overall), South Whidbey held a 4-2 lead going into the seventh inning. Brent Piehler relieved starting pitcher Colton Sterba and allowed the go-ahead runs in the loss. Facing the Tigers, Piehler pitched the complete game. After a rough third inning, Piehler held Granite Falls scoreless on the road. South Whidbey staged a three-run rally that fell short in the fifth.
Murphy routs Falcon soccer for league title Any doubt that possibly existed about who the Cascade Conference’s best team is vanished Wednesday night. Archbishop Murphy routed South Whidbey 7-1 on the Falcons’ home field. The Wildcats hold a league-best 12-1 record, 13-1 overall. South Whidbey (8-5 Cascade Conference; 8-5-2 overall) sits tied at third place with Lakewood.
with Breanna Gauger and Katrina Layton. After winning the first set 7-5, the Falcons fell to Blaine’s Mandy Hayes and Emily Roe in three sets, 5-7, 6-2, 6-3. Blaine’s Alicia Allison and Shirin Roth-Lerner won the second doubles match against Falcon senior Hannah Calderwood and sophomore Isla Dubendorf, 6-1, 6-1.
Someone finally beat South Whidbey girls tennis. It only took a 3A school like South Whidbey’s northern sibling Oak Harbor. The Wildcats won 4-3 on Tuesday. South Whidbey’s first and second singles and top doubles team all won their matches and maintained perfect records. “Our top two singles and top doubles won but we didn’t quite have the depth they had in order to win the overall match,” Kramer said. Top singles senior Hayley Newman beat Makenzie Perry, 6-2, 6-0. Sophomore Carlie Newman won the second singles battle against Chelsea Atkinson, 6-0, 6-0. Doubles stalwarts Radisch and Weeks continued their season-long partnership by defeating Oak Harbor’s Chelsea Admire and Jamie Estrella, 6-0, 6-1. Playing up two classifications, South Whidbey fielded two additional singles players for the varsity score. Playing
in her second Falcon varsity singles match this season, Layton lost to Faith Franssen, 6-2, 6-1. South Whidbey’s Sophie Nilsen lost the fourth singles match to Brittany Rigby, 6-3, 6-0. The Falcons changed their second and third doubles lineups. Normally Calderwood and Dubendorf defend the second doubles spot for South Whidbey. Calderwood missed the match while visiting colleges. That bumped Gauger to fill the void, though their first-set effort fell short in a 7-3 tiebreaker. Oak Harbor’s Zena Husler and Alyssa Eden won 7-6, 6-1. Third doubles saw the return of Colleen Groce to the varsity lineup with Katherine Read. They lost after a contested first set, 7-5, 6-1. “Both second and third doubles teams had a really close first set then both had a letdown at the beginning of the second set and couldn’t stay in the match,” Kramer said. “That’s called inexperience.”
A pair of Wildcats, Jalen Crisler and Kenny Sicklin, each scored two goals. Josh Bartley, who in the previous match scored a hat trick, assisted on three goals. Trey Adams, a Falcon junior, scored the lone goal for South Whidbey.
Pony Leaguers claim fifth straight win The Whidbey Crabs won their fifth straight game in convincing fashion over the Mountlake Terrace Badgers. On April 24, Whidbey shut out Mountlake Terrace, 9-0, with flawless defense, outstanding pitching, and timely hitting. The local nine jumped out to a quick 4-0 lead in the first inning. Josiah Seargent blasted a home run to cap the scoring surge. Will Simms, Connor Antich, Austin Sterba, Dylan Woodward, and Cody Wilkie provided timely hits to support the nine-run attack. Trent Piehler picked up the win on the mound. Antich pitched in relief, and Mitchell Grady closed out the seventh inning to complete their second consecutive shutout against the Badgers.

Turk pitcher Shelby Jeffries pitched the complete game and struck out 17 Falcon batters. South Whidbey pitcher Mackenzie Hezel fanned five Turks and allowed one walk through seven innings.

World events make recipes trivial, but here they are
WHIDBEY RECIPES
Margaret Walton
There are times, and this is one of them, when words fail me; when I can’t be glib about food, fun, family or fear. The horrors of the incredible series of events that began more than a week ago are still too fresh and painful, especially as I’d just turned in a column about the lack of humor in April. Little did I know. As the events unfolded, I found myself desperate to talk to family, to get in touch with everyone I loved and cared about. It became all too evident that we have no way of knowing when someone
might be taken from us, suddenly and unexpectedly, simply by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I hurt for the people in Boston, in Texas, in China, whose lives were forever changed in the space of less than a minute. I can think of nothing to say that will help or change any of it, but I will talk more often with my family and friends, hug more often those I love when I see them, and pay more attention to living and loving.
RECIPES It seems so trivial to talk about recipes, but that happens to be something I have in great abundance and can share with all of you, when words fail me. Perhaps they will be useful to you, in some small way as you, too, go on with living. To remind myself and readers that it is spring, even though it may not feel like it, here’s a recipe for an outstanding version of my Dad’s favorite dessert, lemon pie.
OBITUARY H. Mark Bridgeman
H. Mark Bridgeman, 54, of Langley, Wash., on Whidbey Island enjoyed his quiet time and working on his 5 acre backyard. Whidbey has been his home for the past 22 years. He loved his family and friends and always the responsible one made sure everyone was well taken care of. He loved the outdoors and spent years crabbing, clamming and camping. He made every property he owned a beautiful home where his family could be comfortable and enjoy life. Mark was not afraid to be himself. He worked at Boeing in Quality Assurance Inspection for almost 32 years. A U.S. Army veteran, he was proud to serve his country after graduating from high school in Bellevue. Mark was strong, compassionate and caring. He was a hero in his children’s eyes and blessed to have a marriage where love was steadfast and friendship the foundation. Mark passed away on April 18, 2013 after a very
TRIPLE LEMON PIE For the crust: 7 ½ oz. (about 44 cookies) Lemon Thins 2 T. sugar 1 T. minced lemon zest 3 T. unsalted butter, melted For the filling: 3 egg yolks 1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk 2/3 cup fresh lemon juice, strained (I use Meyer lemons when I can get them) 1 T. minced lemon zest For whipped topping: 1 cup heavy cream 2 T. powdered sugar 1 T. minced lemon zest 1 t. vanilla extract Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Crush the cookies in a heavy plastic bag with a rolling pin, until fine. Transfer crumbs to a large mixing bowl. Mix sugar and 1 T. zest into the crumbs with a fork until combined, then add melted butter and mix until the mixture clings together. Press the crumbs evenly onto the bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake the crust until lightly browned 8-10 min. Remove from oven to a rack and cool to room temp. Note: To save time and make it really easy, you could also use a purchased graham cracker crust, but it won’t be as lemony. To make the filling, beat the yolks with a hand mixer on med.-high until light and fluffy, 3-5 min. Slowly pour in the condensed milk
while continuing to beat on med.-high until mixture is thick and creamy, about 3 min. Add lemon juice and 1 T. of zest and continue beating on med.-low until well combined. Pour filling into cooled crust. Bake in 350 degree oven until the center is set, but sill jiggly, 10-12 min. remove pie from oven to a cooling rack; cool to room temp. then refrigerate pie until chilled, 3-4 hrs. or overnight. When ready to serve dessert, beat the cream in a large bowl with a hand mixer to soft peaks. Add powdered sugar, 1 T. zest and vanilla and continue whipping to med. peaks. Serve each slice of pie with whipped cream. I love finding new ways to serve chicken; this Greek style chicken dish is flavorful and easy.
GREEK STYLE CHICKEN For the Greek salsa: 4 oz. crumbled feta cheese 1 cup halved grape or cherry tomatoes ¼ cup pitted kalamata olives ¼ cup minced fresh Italian parsley ¼ cup fresh lemon juice ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 1 T. chopped fresh oregano For the chicken: 6 skinless bone-in chicken breast halves Kosher salt and ground

black pepper 2 T. extra-virgin olive oil 2 lemons, cut into wedge Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Combine all of the salsa ingredients (cheese through oregano above) in a large bowl; cover and chill. Season the chicken pieces with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Saute in a large roasting pan over med.-high heat until browned on the skin side. Turn chicken over and squeeze lemon wedges over the chicken to coat with lemon juice then nestle the squeezed wedges around the chicken breasts. Roast until the chicken reaches an internal temp. of 160 degrees on an instantread thermometer, about ½ hr. Transfer chicken and lemons to a platter; top with salsa. Serves 6. Note: I like to serve a small bowl of Greek yogurt on the side with this chicken dish; a small dollop of the yogurt on top adds just that bit of extra flavor; don’t use flavored yogurt, just plain. If you find yourself craving a bowl of comfort, try this rich and creamy soup, with good-for-you sweet potatoes.

Add onion and leeks and cook, stirring, for about 3 min., or until slightly softened. Add the sweet potatoes, cook for another 5 min., stirring, then pour in the stock, add the parsley and bay leaf, and season with pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover pan and simmer for about ½ hr. Remove from heat and let cool for 10 min. Remove and discard bay leaf. Transfer half of the soup to a food processor and blend until smooth. Return to the pan with the rest of the soup, stir in the cream and cook another 5 min. Gradually stir in the crumbled cheese until melted (don’t let the soup boil!) Remove from heat; ladle into warmed bowls and garnish with finely crumbled cheese. Serve with slices of crusty bread. Serves 4.

Bayview burn building puts volunteers in fire RECORD STAFF
Building a multi-room structure takes a lot of work. Burning it to the ground takes only seconds. It’s seen as a worthwhile investment for South Whidbey Fire/EMS, which erected and burned its Bayview training facility a couple of times in recent months. “Hours of training can pay off in a split second,” said Deputy Chief Mike Cotton, who leads the district’s training program. “It’s what provides our volunteers with the experience they need. The burn building was safer for training as everything that went into its interior and exterior were known.” Training with volunteers who may never respond to a real house fire is an important lesson. And the temporary building near Bayview School and Good Cheer Food Bank is a controlled environment that reduces risk. South Whidbey Fire/EMS volunteers increased their basic fire training over the past year and a half to 1,800 hours. While 850 hours of that was in the classroom, the department also had a variety of structures donated for training purposes. The department’s plan included the building because its design is similar to what volunteers could encounter. It was constructed like a house, allowing creation of various scenarios inside. Central Whidbey has a permanent burn building
for training, but several of their team members also participated with South Whidbey Fire/EMS on drills throughout the year. The temporary structure was taken down April 20. The building was taken apart with most of its pieces recycled or retained for future use. “Thankfully we don’t get a lot of structure fires,” Cotton said. “But when we do, we want our volunteers to be ready to confront danger and act accordingly. We try to give them enough controlled training time so that in an emergency we all do our job, and we all get to go home.” The majority of calls South Whidbey Fire/EMS first responders answer are not fires, but medical emergencies. Spending time on fire suppression is important, fire officials said, because of the danger fire poses to residents and the firefighters. “It is a tremendous risk to fight a fire,” Cotton said. Even after 26 years of working in the fire service, Cotton admits he has a healthy respect for the dangers fire represents. “I don’t ever take it for granted and don’t want our volunteers to either,” he said. Fortunately, a team of dedicated volunteer officers including Jim Towers, Brian Vick, Jeff Parker and
Chris Blasko also helped the department put together a comprehensive training package that is delivered to the volunteers. “Not only do they attend drills, these guys help to plan, organize, train and teach their fellow firefighters,” Cotton said. “They take the extra time and effort to participate in training because they recognize the value of it.” In 2012, basic fire training included acquired structures, or buildings donated by the community, in March, April, July and October. Acquired structures come with unknown risks, Cotton said, and include extensive inspections and a number of regulations must be involved. Not every building offered can be accepted. To learn more about donating a building, contact Chief Rusty Palmer at chief@ icfd3.org or 360-321-1533.

LEARNING • COMMUNITY • CULTURE
Bayview School launches today in its new role RECORD STAFF The Whidbey Island Community Arts and Education Center invites the community to its open house Saturday, April 27. "It's our own launch show," said Rich Parker, executive director of the education center. Several local organizations joined to form an arts and education center at the old Bayview School. To celebrate the opening of the newly renovated school, they are hosting an open house from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., followed by an artists' reception from 6 to 8 p.m. the completely renovated historic school house. People attending Saturday's Bayview Farmers Market can simply walk across the road and see what the center has to offer. The rustic old school house is set among fir trees overlooking Bayview Corner. With its red walls and other changes, it no longer looks like the school attended by hundreds of South Whidbey residents over the past century. The partners for this venture include: Whidbey Island Community Education; Northwest Institute of Literary Arts; New Stories and The Whidbey Geodome; and The Art Center @ WICEC. The schedule of activities for the open house includes: Whidbey Island Community Education Center: Teacher demonstration of future classes and workshops such as tai chi, Japanese folk art, poetry reading and 3D printing. The Art Center @ WICEC: Art course and workshop demonstrations: Hot wax encaustic painting, abstract fluid acrylic painting and beginning oil painting. New Stories/The Whidbey Geodome: Live presentations and a look at their production entitled, "Earth Portal: A Guided Tour of the Universe." Northwest Institute of Literary Arts: Readings by local authors throughout the event. The evening artists’ reception is for the opening of the two gallery exhibitions: Blooming with Color features 12 by 12 inch blooming themed artworks created specifically for this show by 40 local artists. More than 100 such works will be on display, said one of the organizers, artist Lauryn Taylor. The second exhibition features selected works from WICEC art instructors Don Wodjenski (photography), Kathy Hewitt (fiber arts) Lauryn Taylor (acrylic and encaustic painting) Kim Tinuviel (photo encaustic), Cary Jurians (oil painting) and Joe Menth (photography). New Stories and The Whidbey Geodome will also be present at the reception to show a film and demonstrate the technology behind the amazing navigation through space. Refreshments will be provided for the event. An additional event is set for 6:30 p.m. Sunday, April 28. "Analog Days" shows how technology has changed culture. The sponsor is Humanities Washington and WICEC. Of particular interest to some will be a 3D printer that can turn out threedimensional items created on a computer. Internally-known author and speaker Alex Alben will lead a conversation about how those born before 1980 increasingly cannot recognize the world around them. Society's rapid adoption of computers, the Internet and mobile devices transformed the way people communicate. This technical revolution had profound social effects, splitting society into analog and digital cultures. Can old analog values survive in this new digital universe? The conversation explores how digital inventions are shaping communication, political discourse and today’s media landscape.
Grand opening To celebrate the opening of the newly renovated school, the Whidbey Island Community Arts and Education Center is hosting an one house from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., followed by an artists’ reception from 6 to 8 p.m. at the completely renovated old Bayview School.

Much ado about Shakespeare in a circus tent Shakespeare Festival needs community help By MICHAELA MARX WHEATLEY Staff reporter The Island Shakespeare Festival will get a home under the big top this summer when the group takes up residence at the Langley Middle School campus. But until the first line of “Much Ado About Nothing” will be performed this summer, organizers need help. Festival organizers have acquired a custom circus tent, but a portion of the funding still needs to be raised. Island Shakespeare Festival Development Director Peggy Juve said the $32,000 tent is ordered, which was made possible through a donation of one-third of the funds by Nancy Nordhoff and Lynn Hayes. A Kickstarter campaign will be launched in midMay with a 30-day pledge window, and the group is approaching individuals and community organizations for grants and donations. The money must be raised by the end of June when the company will deliver the tent and rehearsals for “Much Ado About Nothing” begin, Juve said. “The tent was almost serendipitous,” Juve said. Director Rose Woods will set her production of “Much Ado About Nothing” in an 1890s circus setting. The idea for the tent was born in planning for the show. “I was not thinking of a forever home for the festival, but of set design,” Woods said. Juve began researching and came across the oldest tent maker in the United States, Armbruster Tent Makers. “We realized we could have

This summer, organizers expect 3,000 and will perform six weekends and 18 shows. “It’s crazy how it has grown,” Woods said. “I just started it because it was the right time and I was in love with the Story House land.” Her beloved venue also changed, but organizers are still excited. From the Story House stage at the Whidbey Institute in Clinton, the festival has moved to Langley and will set up on the Langley Middle School grounds. Juve and Woods say the school district was accommodating because its leaders see the education potential to their students and the land is
a home, and move around,” Juve said of the tent which will be 40 feet by 60 feet, can hold up to 300 people and be pitched anywhere they can drive a stake into the ground. Woods and Juve chose canvas and neutral colors so the tent will still blend with future production settings. The tent will last 30 to 40 years and retains 50 to 60 percent of its value, Juve said. “It’s a good investment,” she added. Indeed, the Island Shakespeare Festival has grown in leaps and bounds in its first three years. In 2011, it drew 800 people in two weekends. Last year 2,000 people

not used in the summer. Langley merchants and lodging owners were excited about the prospect of thousands of Shakespeare fans coming through town. Shakespeare festival board member Rene Neff, also a Langley City Council member and gallery owner, said the potential for economic development for Langley is huge. “We’re so excited to have the festival in town. It’s 3,000 people shopping and spending time in Langley,” she said. Organizers also said that they will be happy to let the community use the tent for other events when it is not used for the Island Shakespeare Festival, which may generate rental revenue. Advertising may also be sold in the tent flaps to help pay for festival expenses. The shows are always free. “Much Ado About Nothing” will take to the stage Aug. 2 through Sept. 8 under the Big Top in the heart of Langley. Anyone who would like to support the tent project may send checks to ISF, P.O. Box 1262, Langley. Checks need to be made payable to WIAC with ISF in the memo.
