Tuesday fire claims Clinton home

Fair group wants regular county funding, new lease By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

South Whidbey Fire/EMS firefighters battle a house fire on Longwood Lane late Tuesday. No one was hurt in the blaze, but the home was completely destroyed.

None injured, but blaze resists 40,000-gallon attack By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record Fire destroyed a large house on South Whidbey Tuesday. The blaze began at about 5 p.m. at a home on Longwood Lane, off Ewing Road.

South Whidbey Fire/EMS crews battled the blaze for hours, dumping an estimated 40,000 gallons of water on the structure, but the house couldn’t be saved, district officials said. “This was a loss before we got here,” Fire Chief Rusty Palmer said. About three-fourths of the home was reportedly

already on fire when the first 9-1-1 call came in. Once on scene, fire crews coordinated their attack and were able to save at least two outbuildings, a two-story workshop/barn and a firewood SEE FIRE, A20

Fifth-grade students raise salmon fry for Maxwelton watershed By JUSTIN BURNETT South Whidbey Record

Justin Burnett / The Record

Brayden Jonsson and classmates release tiny coho into the Maxwelton watershed Friday.

Like proud parents on graduation day, about 100 South Whidbey fifth graders said their goodbyes to hundreds of salmon fry Friday. Four classes from South Whidbey Elementary School spent the morning releasing the tiny coho into the Maxwelton watershed and on to desti-

nies unknown. Few tears were spilt over the parting, however, as the release was long planned and was the conclusion of a four-month project that left students with an in-depth understanding of a salmon’s life cycle and the pride of having contributed to the larger restoration efforts going on throughout Western SEE SALMON, A13

Running the Island County Fairgrounds costs too much, and the managing Whidbey Island Fair Association wants county funding as part of a restructured lease. In a letter sent to the county commissioners on April 9, fair association President Diane Divelbess wrote that her group could not “in good faith” renew the lease as it exists without any county support for the property. The two-year lease is set to expire in June. “The way we are now, we are managing but without sufficient funds to manage,” Divelbess said in a phone interview Thursday. “Up to now, the county has given us what [it] has been able to give us.” That reality rang true with Commissioner Helen Price Johnson. She worked with a steering committee that presented a $10.12 million overhaul of the property over 10 years. “What we found was the property has increasing challenges,” she said. “What is clear from the study is the fair association needs to focus on the fair, and that is reflected in this letter,” she added. Island County, the owner of the 12.8-acre property on Camano Avenue in Langley, has not budgeted any maintenance and operations funding for the fairgrounds for several years. In lieu of that money, the county SEE FAIR, A14

Paul Stokke of Langley weighs a king salmon he caught April 14 off Camano Island. It weighed in at 21 pounds.

Paul Stokke had quite a catch to show off to his friends enjoying lattes at a coffee shop in Langley last week. The Langley man hauled in a 21-pound chinook (king) salmon somewhere between Baby and Camano islands, but he honored an angling tradition to not divulge too much about a favored fishing spot by being vague. Stokke was out alone that morning when he got the bite that ended up being a 30-minute fight. “I was so worried of losing this fish because there was no one else to see this,” Stokke said.

“Every time it saw the boat it would take off. … As soon as I got the net in the water, it took off again,” he added. While the catch is far from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife record of 70.50 pounds, set in 1964 by Chet Gausta near Sekiu, the fish was still a hefty haul. Stokke said it was the largest salmon he has caught in Puget Sound and that he used a flasher and a squid to land it. “Everything I’ve been catching was five, six pounds. I could certainly tell the difference right away,” Stokke said. “I haven’t had a fight like that in a long time.” Larry Durocher, after seeing the fish at the Langley coffee haunt, went home to get his fish scale and verified the salmon’s weight. “Had someone told me there was a salmon that size around here, I wouldn’t put much stock in it,” said Stokke, who added that he had bled the fish before it was weighed. He said he planned to cook it as soon as he could and would share some with friends because “I can’t eat all of that fish.”

The week prior, a windstorm knocked a tree limb through the library’s roof. A six-inch hole was punched through the ceiling April 14. Nobody was in the building at the time of the accident. According to a news release from the Sno-Isle Libraries, the entire roof will be replaced. Library customers are able to pick up any books, CDs or videos on hold at the Langley Library. The

COUNTY New patrol boat funding in place Island County has secured a $225,000 grant to purchase a new allweather patrol vessel. The funding was issued through the Homeland Security Grant Program under Operation Stonegarden. The intent of Operation Stonegarden is to enhance law enforcement preparedness along the land and sea borders of the United States. Its purpose is to “increase border security in direct coordination with state and local law enforcement,” according to county project description documents. The vessel will be used to increase joint law enforcement marine patrols in Puget Sound to gain a better grasp on

cross border activity, and to prevent illegal crossings. Local agencies involved are the Coupeville Marshal’s Office, Island County Sheriff’s Office, Langley Police Department and Oak Harbor Police Department. The boat is a 26-foot rigid hull inflatable with the capability to moor up against other vessels. Island County Sheriff Mark Brown said the boat is far more durable than the county’s current boat which is around 20 years old. Brown said the new boat with its upgraded capabilities would have been very helpful in providing rescue and investigative services after the Ledgewood landslide. Moving forward, Brown said the boat will be a great resource to assist the county in providing boater safety and natural disaster services. Brown said the county’s old boat will likely find a home with a local fire district.

PARKS District opens talks with county Preliminary conversation about the Island County park properties on South Whidbey has begun with the South Whidbey Parks & Recreation District. Parks Director Doug Coutts reported to the parks commissioners that he met with a pair of South Whidbey elected officials about a handful of county properties. He said he spoke with Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson and Port of South Whidbey Commissioner Dennis Gregoire to begin looking at which properties the county may seek to vacate management and possibly ownership of in the coming years. They asked a parks board member to join in the future discussions, and parks Commissioner Joel Gerlach volunteered to be the liaison. Last year, Price Johnson spoke to the parks board about possibly taking over a few county-owned properties. The parks district countered with a long list of questions about Dan Porter, Dave Mackie and Freeland parks. Matt Simms, a parks commissioner, said they never heard back from the county. “Someone is going to have to run something at some point to fund those properties,” Coutts said. Parks leaders have said the increase would not be spent on new properties or new facilities.

South Whidbey family heads to the White House By CELESTE ERICKSON South Whidbey Record A Langley family is taking the trip of a lifetime and celebrating Easter at the White House. Carol Kerley and Linda Dunham were chosen by the Pride Foundation to take their granddaughters, Katie and Emily, to the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, April 21. Kerley received the call earlier this month and couldn’t believe the news. “It came out of nowhere,” Kerley said. “We’re very fortunate to go. We were so surprised.” At the time of the call, she was recovering from oral surgery and requested the invitation in writing — just to be sure. “I think that might have been the funniest part,” said Executive Director of the foundation Kris Hermanns, who made the call. “They were thrilled beyond words for this opportunity. It was a very sweet and wonderful exchange.” Emily,7, and Katie,8, were in a car when they heard about the upcoming trip. The sisters spent the rest of the car ride shout-

ing with excitement. “I screamed and did cartwheels,” Katie said of her reaction. Hermanns said Kerley and Dunham were the first people she thought of when representatives from the White House contacted her for families to recommend. Kerley has been involved for years with the Pride Foundation, which provides opportunities for full equality of LGBTQ people across the Northwest. “We’re so happy we could bring joy to Carol and Linda in the way they have to so many others.” The foundation chose the Kerley-Dunham family because they embody what’s best about modern families, Hermanns said. “Carol and Linda are very close to their family,” she said. “Having a couple that’s been together for over 40 years who are taking their grandkids — they’re a wonderful blended family, love makes a family. We’re happy to have Carol and Linda represent the community in that way.” The Kerley-Dunhams will join 30,000 other participants on the South Lawn of the famed Pennsylvania Avenue house to celebrate

the 136th annual Easter Egg Roll with the first family and many celebrity guests. The family will spend five days in Washington D.C. and tour Sen. Patty Murray’s office, Lincoln Memorial and Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. The theme for the Easter Egg Roll this year is “Hop into Healthy, Swing into Shape,” upholding first lady Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move!” campaign to promote fitness. The event will feature live music, games, cooking stations, storytelling and Easter egg rolling. Several celebrities will also be attending including YouTube singing sensation Cam Anthony, Ariana Grande, Jim Carrey, Miss America 2014 Nina Davuluri, former NFL player and NASA astronaut Leland Melvin, Debby Ryan from the Disney Channel TV show “Jessie” and Sesame Street characters to name a few of the guests. Emily and Katie are excited to see Debby Ryan,

an actor from one of their favorite TV shows, along with the memorials, which they studied before the trip. “I’m excited to see Lincoln [Memorial] because he stopped slavery,” Katie said. The two will keep journals to write down their experiences and share with their teachers at South Whidbey Elementary School. “It’s a thrill watching the two of them get excited. We always wanted to go to D.C. but didn’t think we would while they were so young — especially as part of the Easter Egg Roll,” Carol said. If the family gets lucky enough to meet President Obama, Katie had an idea of what she would say. “First, I would scream for about 20 minutes,” Katie said, though Kerley quickly vetoed that idea and asked what else she would say. “I would say, ‘I want to live there,’ ” Katie said.

Editor’s column Outshine flames with compassion, giving By JUSTIN BURNETT

The best thing about living in a small community is that everyone knows everyone. It’s also the worst thing about living in a small community, because when tragedy strikes it seems to touch us all. Many know Jan Quade, who lost her home of over 30 years to a fire on Tuesday. The lifelong South Whidbey resident left for Bible study and returned a few hours later to a house engulfed in flames. As a reporter, I’ve covered a handful of house fires over my career, and each one seems worse than the last. Although I didn’t personally know Quade before this week, I recognized her look of shock, disbelief and uncertainty as she watched her home burn. Merciless and terrifying, house fires strike when least expected, and with devastating effect. South Whidbey Fire/ EMS firefighters, composed mainly of courageous and selfsacrificing community volunteers, fought the blaze for hours, but Quade’s home and everything inside was completely destroyed. All that remains is an adjacent workshop, her car and the clothes she had on her back at the time. The gravity of such a loss is difficult to contemplate, and I doubt those who haven’t survived such a calamity can truly know what it feels like to stand in Quade’s shoes — her only shoes. Family heirlooms, pictures of the kids — all treasures gone forever. And the sting is surely made worse by little things often taken for granted. Quade is staying with family, but she went there that first night with nothing. Her pajamas, the familiar book by her bedside, even her toothbrush; all of it was consumed in one terrible afternoon. Having spent a lifetime on South Whidbey, Quade is well known and many are now eager to help. A garage sale and bake sale will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, May 3, at Whidbey Telecom. For details, see page 20. An account, the Jan Quade Burn Fund, has also been set up at Whidbey Island Bank. Donating is easy, requiring only a visit to one of several branches on the South End. Fires are awful. They wrench from us so much, but we as a community have the power to outshine their flames with our compassion and generosity. Don’t forget Jan Quade this week as she begins to rebuild all that she has lost.

Letters Response

RV park suggestion for fair poses questions Editor, Sharon Emerson in a Letter to the editor recommended building an RV park at the fairgrounds. It is good to float a lot of ideas. This one may work, but we’d like to raise some cautions, based on staying at over 100 different parks and campgrounds in the past two years in our RV. First, RV campgrounds are almost always seasonal. We have stayed in many campgrounds where we were the only ones there because it was out of season. And the “season” here can be very short. One doesn’t usually hear people saying, “Let’s go to the PNW instead of Arizona this January, dear.” Second, there is a hidden cost for

RVers — ferry fees. A one-way ticket for our small RV is $28. That will dissuade many people, especially those who might be traveling through for only a single night. Third, there needs to be something to do besides shop. Some people can detach and could explore the island. Those who can’t will be walking through town once, probably not even eating here as they have their own kitchens. Fourth, there are already a lot of places for camping on the island, many in scenic areas. There is a saturation point somewhere. Fifth, although there has been a rebound lately, RV ownership is still far below what it was a few years ago because of the damage to retirement funds. The future is uncertain. Sixth, is there water and sewage capacity for what essentially is a large number of additional homes in a small area? Seventh, according to hosts we

Viewpoint What are your plans for celebrating Earth Day? this: Congress took the day off so that senators and representatives could get back to their home states and participate in that historical day’s events. American Heritage magazine called it “one of the most remarkable happenings in the history of democracy.” Today, more than four decades later, it is hard to imagine that level of national excitement and focus on the environment. But imagine what it was like in those days: Ohio’s Cuyahoga River erupted in fire — again. DDT showed up in 98 percent of fresh water samples, with levels up to nine times the federal limit, and 30 percent of drinking water samples had chemicals exceeding national health standards. Air pollution was sickening and killing people. One 1963 air pollution event in New York City killed 405 people. Lead was still in gasoline and it was often dark by 11 a.m. in Pittsburg due to thick smog. Real change happened as a result of all that civic activism in 1970. Congress acted. New and stronger rules were adopted to clean up our

Major oil spills in Puget Sound have been prevented, old-growth forests and farmland have been preserved, some salmon runs have been boosted and the use of pesticides has been cut way back. And, spurred by a statewide citizens’ initiative, our electric utilities are investing in energy efficiency and new renewable energy instead of fossil fuels. Which leads back to the question: what are your plans for Earth Day 2014? The defining issue today, of course, is climate change. And, of course, it’s not just an environmental issue. It’s an issue of social justice, food security, global economics, generational equity and an issue that the Pentagon recognizes as a major national security threat. It’s an issue that is already changing our world — the one here on the Salish Sea. Already the shellfish industry is suffering major losses

There is much more — the University of Washington’s Climate Impact Group is an excellent resource on local impacts. This Earth Day we must make a difference. We need to talk to each other. We need to press our elected officials, our education, religious, community and business leaders, our bankers, realtors and insurance brokers about climate change. We need to speak up now about the need to reduce climate pollution and plan responsibly for changes in our environment that are now inevitable. In my mind, we who talk about climate change and press for actions to reduce climate pollution are the optimists because we believe we can make a difference.

Pivotal 1A match ends in draw By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

Nasty play matched the nasty weather in a battle for 1A playoff positioning between the South Whidbey and King’s boys soccer teams Wednesday night. And it was all for naught as the game ended in a double overtime 1-1 draw. South Whidbey holds the tiebreaker because the Falcons won the first match 2-1. “It’s definitely better than a loss,” said Falcon senior co-captain Trey Adams. Through a consistently soggy soccer match, the Falcons struck first. Andy Zisette took the ball down the right sideline and crossed it into the Knights’ penalty area. Falcon junior Kai da Rosa tried to strike the ball, but the synthetic turf sent the ball bouncing higher than he anticipated and it rolled by him. Toward the left post, Falcon junior Kameron Donohoe got the ball, faked a shot and tapped it behind him to teammate Jeff Meier for a shot on goal that was deflected right to da Rosa for a goal in the sixth minute. “We came out on fire on that first goal,” Adams said. “I was super happy because this game is extremely important for our playoff seeding and even getting in the playoffs.” King’s was quick to answer. A few minutes later, the Knights took a free kick about 30 yards out from the Falcons’ goal. The high, lofted pass reached Josh Alexander who headed the

Both coaching staffs voiced their displeasure with the officiating and the physical play on the field. Players from both teams were pulled to the turf with audible thuds, feet clashed, torsos collided and not a single card was issued. Few people were as vocal with their discontent as da Rosa, who chided the ref-

erees for failing to protect him from being thrown to the turf. “Not a lot of calls went our way,” Adams said. “We always come into a fistfight with King’s, so I was expecting that.” After a diving save by Falcon goalie Charlie Stelling in the 47th minute, the second half was largely a stalemate with missed shots for both teams. As regulation time waned,

South Whidbey seemed to gain momentum with a few shots on goal that were deflected and stopped. South Whidbey also benefited from the field’s slick condition. Late in the match, Knight senior Taylor Moe had a one-onone with Stelling who had stepped away from the goal to stop the ball before Moe could reach it. Stelling missed the ball, and Moe took a shot at a wide-open goal that missed to the left. “I was getting very, very nervous,” said Adams of the match, which drudged up memories of South Whidbey’s shootout loss to Cascade Christian in last year’s 1A tri-district tournament at King’s Woolsey Stadium. In the two, five-minute overtime periods, King’s attempted two shots on goal that both sailed over the crossbar. “It was a good experience to go into overtime, to have that experience going into, hopefully, playoffs,” Adams said. The tie set up a pivotal match on Friday, April 18, against island rival Coupeville, the third 1A team in the Cascade Conference. Only the top two advance to the District 1 playoffs, with South Whidbey sitting a game ahead of King’s and two ahead of Coupeville. “It puts a lot on the game on Friday,” Adams said. “King’s also has another game with Coupeville. If somehow we aren’t able to pull that game out against Coupeville, it puts us in a tough position. … We want revenge.”

Sterba goes the distance, pitches full game as Falcons beat Cougars Finally, the Falcons were able to play a long-delayed rainout against the Lakewood Cougars, and it was worth the wait. South Whidbey senior Colton Sterba pitched six innings of shutout baseball, allowing only two runs in a 6-2 win over Lakewood on April 15. The Falcons took a quick lead in the first inning, followed by four runs in the second inning and the final run in the third. Falcon senior Nick Bennett went 3-for4 at the plate with a double. South Whidbey’s game against Sultan on Wednesday was rained out twice and rescheduled for a doubleheader at South Whidbey High School on Friday, after The Record went to press.

Bayview market commits to aiding community in need The Bayview Farmers Market opens Saturday, April 26, and this year’s market includes changes that could increase access to fresh, local products. For the first time, many farmers will be accepting food stamps for their products. Shoppers who use EBT food stamps get a receipt that can be submitted for another $10 to spend on additional products. Vendor participants include Glendale Shepherd, Pam’s Place Produce, Skyroot Farm, Ebb Tide Produce, and Deep Harvest Farm. There are also many others that are in the pro-

EBT food stamp payment should be available at the market later this spring. Funding for the program

will come from a portion of income the market earned in the 2013 season. The Bayview Farmers Market is a non-profit co-op.

Building the writer’s toolbox Author looks to develop young writers in workshop By CELESTE ERICKSON South Whidbey Record Langley author Amber Kizer is taking everything she’s learned from publishing several young adult novels to the classroom at Whidbey Children’s Theater this month. Kizer, 36, is the author of seven internationally published books. The Langley author grew up on the South End and is a 1996 graduate of South Whidbey High School. She published her first title in 2007 and has kept an active pace of one to two books per year since. “I fell in love with writing, it was serendipitous,” she said. “I can’t imagine doing anything else.” In her works, she explores a range of subjects including a coming-of-age story, magical realism and a postapocalyptic survival novel.

She hopes to garner students’ passions and explore their ideas while giving them the tools and foundation for storytelling. “I want to show them ways to think about writing that’s not exactly writing,” she said. Kizer has taught several classes before, but this is the first time at the children’s theater. This is a great age group to teach because they’re teenagers and are still exploring what they’re passionate about, she said. “They’re not quite there yet,” she said. “It’s fun to

Kizer will ask how each character would present themselves online, such as what they would Instagram or post, she said. “It’s not ‘write what you know,’ it’s know what you write,” Kizer explained. Executive Director of the children’s theater Cait Cassee said Kizer is a good example of finding and developing an author’s voice for students. “Amber really embodies that in a very relevant way for the demographic we

Kizer first wanted to be a lawyer, but after she developed a rare neurological disorder during her freshman year of college at George Washington University in Washington D.C., she started focusing on a writing career so she could telecommute. She studied the business, reviewed story archetypes and discovered her own voice. “There’s a lot of writing crap involved,” she said of starting out in the writing industry. “I was figuring it out as I went. There’s also a lot of luck involved.” With each of her books, she hopes people have a good time reading her stories. “I’d like teenagers and readers to feel a little less alone and have a connection,” she said.

Deep Sea crab boat owner will face September trial By JESSIE STENSLAND South Whidbey Record The owner of the Deep Sea crab boat that caught fire and sank to the bottom of Penn Cove will go to trial on a misdemeanor charge this September. Rory Westmoreland and his attorney, Cooper Offenbecher of Seattle, appeared in Island County District Court for a lengthy hearing Monday morning. Westmoreland was charged with “vessel abandoned or derelict upon aquatic lands” for allegedly leaving the 128-foot crab boat anchored just outside Penn Cove Shellfish’s mussel rafts. Westmoreland purchased the nonfunctioning boat from the Port of Seattle and had it towed to Penn Cove in December 2011, according to Island County Deputy Prosecutor Chris Anderson. He said it’s unclear what plans Westmoreland had for the vessel or why he brought it to Coupeville. Four months later, an unknown

arsonist set the vessel on fire, causing it to sink and spill more than 5,000 gallons of diesel fuel into the waters, according to a report by the Department of Natural Resources. State and federal efforts to contain the spill, raise and dispose of the derelict vessel would cost taxpayers $5.4 million. The history of the criminal case against Westmoreland is somewhat complicated. An employee at the Department of Natural Resources originally cited Westmoreland about 11 months after the sinking. The charge was dismissed, said Anderson, a few months later in order to give the investigator more time to gather evidence. The prosecutor’s office re-filed the charge Aug. 30, 2013. Offenbecher said in court last week that the Department of Natural Resources officer filed the criminal charge against Westmoreland as a way to recoup the costs of cleanup through the restitution process; he said officials were frustrated that other attempts hadn’t worked.

In an interview, Anderson agreed that restitution will likely come up if Westmoreland is found guilty, but at this point it’s a straightforward criminal case. Offenbecher asked Judge Bill Hawkins to dismiss the case, arguing that the statute of limitations had passed by the time the prosecutor’s office re-filed the charge. Hawkins disagreed, ruling that the statute limitation had “tolled” or suspended during the period after the case was dismissed and re-filed. Offenbecher also asked for a change of venue, citing the publicity the sinking of the Deep Sea generated on Whidbey Island. He said some of the information in news reports would taint the jury because they will be inadmissible in court. Again, Hawkins disagreed. He questioned whether any such information would be inadmissible, plus he said the stories weren’t inflammatory. He denied the motion, but said the issue would be revisited later. In the end, Hawkins set the trial for Sept. 11.

Whidbey General Hospital property sale on South End is uncertain By MICHELLE BEAHM Whidbey News Group The sale of a Whidbey General Hospital property on South Whidbey remains undecided this week. The hospital commissioners met Monday morning to hear public comments about the possible sale of the 4.5-acre property in Bayview. The property, undeveloped land along Highway 525, was originally purchased in January 2008 with

the intent of building a clinic there. Hank Hanigan, the hospital’s chief operations officer, said the clinic was supposed to house mammography, X-rays, physical therapy and other outpatient services. However, construction was halted before it could begin in 2008. At first, the project was stalled by a lack of funding, hospital officials said. Then, regulations for how a hospital could be designated as a Critical Access Hospital changed, and a clinic on that

property would have cost Whidbey General Hospital its Critical Access funding. Critical Access Hospitals are designated as small hospitals in rural areas with no more than 25 inpatient beds. Critical Access Hospitals must have 24-hour emergency services seven days a week and be located more than 35 miles from any other hospital or Critical Access Hospital in a nonmountainous area. If the clinic was built on the property in Bayview, Whidbey General would no longer qualify as a Critical Access Hospital due to the facility’s close proximity. Monday’s public meeting was for the board to hear public comment about whether or not the property

should be sold. No private citizens appeared at the 7 a.m. meeting to comment, but there was a letter from Sue Ellen White read into the record during the meeting. White suggested that selling the property was premature because neither of the two clinics on South Whidbey provided enough services, and the clinic the board originally planned on building in Langley would. “Make it too inconvenient or problematic, and people will go elsewhere,” White said in her letter. Because there are two functioning clinics on the South End, a third, more inclusive clinic isn’t necessar y, said Hospital Commissioner Grethe Open

day-S se u 1-4PM nday

Cammermeyer, who represents South Whidbey. Cammermeyer said she wanted to know if there was a rush to sell the property, or if it was only proposed in an effort to liquidate unused hospital assets. Commissioner Ron Wallin, the board secretary, expressed shock at the low value of the property. The hospital purchased it for $1.98 million in 2008, but the county assessor’s office appraised the property value at only $595,890. County records also list the property’s value at the time of the sale at $617,739. The decision to purchase the land was made in executive session, which is closed to the public, and no commissioners or officials that were included are still at the hospital. For that reason, current hospital leaders

have been unable to answer for the discrepancy. The South Whidbey Record has filed a public records request for professional appraisals completed prior to the initial sale, but those documents had not been made available by press time. Cammermeyer suggested waiting for another six months to put it on the market to see if the value increases. Because Monday’s meeting was about hearing public comments, no decision was made, and the meeting adjourned. Board President Anne Tarrant said that the commissioners are tentatively planning to make a decision about whether or not to sell at their next official board meeting, which is 7 a.m. Monday, May 7.

Island residents displeased with the reimagined property. Out of the dissent, however, came a renewed charge that the property is in some state of disrepair and the fair association needs help. Divelbess said she has 15 applications to join the association that she was sorting through and she and the other fair directors hoped to garner more public support going forward. Public support for the property’s survival was also noted by Price Johnson as a positive outcome of the proposal’s opposition. “The upside is that a lot of people are thinking about the fairgrounds,” Price Johnson said. “There’s an opportunity ahead.” The lease itself is a honeypot: attractive but ensnaring. It allows the managing agency — the Whidbey Island Fair Association — full use of the property, including the ability to rent out its facilities, and to keep any revenue generated from it. But it also holds the fair association responsible for the property’s and the buildings’ upkeep. When the fair association originally signed the agreement, it thought the four-day fair would generate enough money to handle small upkeep issues.

Ben Watanabe / The Record

Diane Divelbess, president of the Whidbey Island Fair Association, listens to a presentation during a conference of Washington State Fairs Association managers in late March at the Island County Fairgrounds. The Whidbey fair association has requested a restructured lease with Island County, which owns the Langley property. “It’s actually a good arrangement, it’s just that the buildings are old enough that we can’t rent them for what they’re worth,” Divelbess said. “With some additional monies, we can probably manage quite well to finally spruce up things and make it possible for some of the buildings, like the Pole Building, to be rentable,” she added. “It would be

The interim Island County facilities director was directed by the commissioners to begin looking at the county’s options and the fair association’s request. “How it’s managed is really going to be our question,” Price Johnson said. “Is it a county employee, [or] do we enter into a relationship with another entity?” A date has not been set for the two groups to meet and discuss a new lease or future county funding.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

shed. Palmer confirmed the house was empty of both humans and animals.

The two-story home belongs to Jan Quade, a lifelong South Whidbey resident. She was at a Bible study with a friend for several hours and was at the head of her long driveway when she noticed heavy smoke coming

from the house. “Then we saw fire and that’s all she wrote,” Quade said. Quade lives alone, but family members who live on the island arrived quickly. Together they watched firefighters battle the inferno. “It’s crazy,” said Leslie Wallin, shaking her head in disbelief as she looked at the burning remains of her childhood home. Wallin is Quade’s daughter and an Oak Harbor resident. She and her siblings grew up in the rural house, which was nestled between ponds and large cedar trees on a 10-acre property. “I just love it out here,” Wallin said. Quade said she is fortunate to have lots of family on the island and will have a place to stay, but she lost everything in the fire. “Right now, I just don’t

Despite the loss, the family credited the fire district with a quick response time for firefighters’ efforts to save the doomed home. “The fire guys, I couldn’t imagine them getting there any faster than they did,” she said. “They really worked like troopers. That was a hot fire.” According to Palmer, the cause of the fire is unknown. He described the blaze as a large house fire that was hard to fight due to its rural loca-

tion and lack of water supply. The district had up to five hoses hitting the structure with water at one time, and firefighters actually ran out of water for about 15 minutes. A shuttle system of water tenders was established and firefighters were able to continue the fight. The blaze was largely out by 7 p.m., but fire crews were at the site for hours more putting out hot spots — pockets of embers or coals that could reignite the structure. Quade said Thursday her

long-term living plans remain uncertain. Many have come forward wanting to help, but she isn’t sure yet whether she’ll rebuild or pursue other options. “Everyone’s been wonderful. ... I wish I could answer them, but I can’t,” Quade said. “I have to figure out what I’m going to do.” Several relief efforts for Quade are underway. A retired longtime Whidbey Telecom employee, the company is throwing a garage and bake sale from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, May 3, at its location on Highway 525 in Bayview. An account, the Jan Quade Burn Fund, has also been set up at Whidbey Island Bank.
