Discussions halted on harbor tours at the wharf By Megan Hansen Editor

A Coupeville man’s ambition to start a harbor tour business out of the town’s wharf hit a snag. Patrick Kelly proposed starting Heavenly Harbor Tours and began negotiating with the Port of Coupeville early this year. After back and forth discussions, the commissioners are no longer responding to his requests to come to a lease agreement, Kelly claims. The proposed tour business would operate hourly harbor tours highlighting Coupeville’s history. It would also serve as a water taxi to and from the Captain Whidbey Inn. The commissioners presented what they said is a “best and final” offer of $300 for moorage, which would be waived for the first year, and a $1 per head passenger charge. Kelly’s standing proposal is for a $300 moorage and no per-passenger fee.

Coupeville boys overcome tough season to move deep into playoffs By Jim Waller Staff Reporter

State championship. That was the goal of the Coupeville High School baseball team as it approached its first game in mid-March. Not unrealistic, not cliché. The Wolves returned eight starters, all multi-year lettermen, and its entire pitching staff from a team that finished third in the Cascade Conference in 2013 behind 2A powerhouses Archbishop Murphy and Cedarcrest. Four years ago, this group won the state Junior Little League crown. Then this season started. On April 7, Coupeville owned a 3-5 record and was closer to the league cellar than a state pennant. And things appeared to be getting worse. The Wolves soon lost their starting shortstop to a season-ending injury and their No. 2 pitcher developed shoulder problems and couldn’t take the mound. Turned out, however, that the struggling team and not the bold prediction was the mirage. The Wolves rattled off seven wins in their final 11 regular-season games and built momentum for the postseason. Coupeville jumped through the first two playoff hoops, winning four of five postseason games. First the Wolves finished second in the district tournament, then they took third in the tri-district. Those wins landed Coupeville in the state tournament. The tri-district victories came Saturday, May 17. The Wolves won a 1-0 heart-pounder over Overlake/Beak Creak in eight innings at Bellingham’s Sehome High School, then claimed third place by stopping Charles Wright/Life

Third was the best Coupeville could accomplish at tri-district after finishing second in the district tournament last week. Two district champions, South Whidbey and Bothell’s Cedar Park Christian, were automatically placed in the tri-district title game. Cedar Park won 5-2 Saturday. By placing third, Coupeville earned its first state trip since 2008 and a short ride to Anacortes. The second and fourth seeds from tridistrict (South Whidbey and CW/LCA) travel to Castle Rock, and the fifth seed, Overlake, journeys to Moses Lake. The Wolves (14-10) will play eighth-ranked Evergreen Conference champion Rochester (16-6) at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 24, in a loserout game. If they win, they will play the winner of Cedar Park Christian (18-2) and Hoquiam (15-8) at about 4 p.m. for the regional

title. The regional champ qualifies for the final four in Yakima and will play May 30 and 31.

Memorial Day Parade Saturday in Coupeville By Megan Hansen Editor

Whidbey Island residents will gather in Coupeville Saturday to celebrate and honor those who have served in the military. Coupeville’s annual Memorial Day Parade starts 11 a.m. on South Main Street and ends at Coupeville Town Park. Lynda Eccles with the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce said there are currently 75 entries, representing 52 organizations. Beth Kuchynka from bayleaf is this year’s grand marshal, having won the business leadership of the year award through the chamber. “I am excited,” she said. “It’s a huge honor.” The parade will also include two World War II vets, a Model A car club and Whidbey Cruzers. Volunteers from Gifts from the Heart food bank is once again entering its “drill team.” The team will perform along the parade route with shopping carts, collecting food donations at the same time. “They aren’t a highprecision drill team, but

they have fun,” said Molly Hughes, food bank president. The parade will start at the intersection near Prairie Center and run the length of Main Street, turning onto Front Street and Alexander Street and then Coveland, ending at the town park. Navy Band Northwest will be playing at the end of the parade, welcoming people into the park with Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard and Capt. Mike Nortier, commanding officer of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station. After a remembrance ceremony, Central Whidbey Lions will be grilling up free hot dogs and giving out soda starting at 1 p.m. Whidbey Island Band will be at the park to give a musical salute. For Eccles, the Memorial Day celebration is a special time. “Watching the start of the parade give me an amazing sense of pride,” Eccles said. “It’s the whole celebration — honoring those who have served. It’s a community event, and island-wide event. “That’s what makes it such a special event.”

TOURS: Port, business owner come to standoff From page 1 “The fee was negotiated down and down and could never get low enough for him,” said Tim McDonald, executive director for the Port of Coupeville. “Moorage was dropped from $700 to $300. Mr. Kelly didn’t find that acceptable. At this point it’s up to (him.)” During discussions with Kelly, the board of commissioners drafted and passed Resolution No. 191, which stipulates the port will collect a $1 per head passenger fee for any vessel embarking from the wharf. The fee is not imposed on commercial boats bringing passengers from a port other than Coupeville, such as the Victoria Clipper, or vessels serving in a nonprofit capacity. Kelly said he is opposed to the per-head fee because it does not fit into industry standards and is not competitive in the market place. McDonald said while drafting the resolution he initially proposed a $2 perhead fee. “I’m constantly looking at getting the budget sustainable,” he said. Kelly said when comparing the port’s offer to other venues in the area, it’s just not competitive. He said he’s asked the port to show him their research, but has yet to see any. Tour companies that operate out of Deception Pass and Port of South Whidbey do not charge per-head fees, he said. One of the issues taken

into consideration, McDonald said, is that the port pays a lease fee to the Department of Natural Resources for the water underneath the wharf dock. Because the wharf is used mostly for recreational purposes, it falls into a lower lease rate. McDonald said that every time the port signs a new lease, it must send the lease to DNR for review and the port’s payments could increase. “We’re not in the business of making money, but we’re not in the business of spending more than we take in,” McDonald said. Since drafting the resolution, the port has signed two lease agreements with Jerry and Mark Saia for their sailing business. They were offered the same terms as Kelly. While he said he thinks it’s great to see commercial enterprise operating out of the wharf, Kelly said the businesses differ from his. The boat Kelly is purchasing seats 14 people and he plans on running 10 tours a day, 12 in peak season. In peak season, if he ran at maximum capacity, Kelly could be paying more than $5,000 a month in passenger fees. He said the smaller sailing businesses don’t serve as many people and the fees probably won’t impact them as much. He also has more overhead costs because of the size of boat he will be using. “As soon as you go over six passengers things change

Patrick Kelly wants to start a tour business in Coupeville. and the Coast Guard gets involved,” he said. “There are more regulations and certifications involved.” He said his investment in starting the business will be upwards of $100,000. During discussions, commissioners suggested Kelly just tack on the $1 to his normal fee, but he didn’t like that idea. “I’m trying to do something that’s more affordable for people,” Kelly said. “Every dollar you raise the price is going to effect ridership. For the business to be sustainable, I need more traffic.” Since the final offer standoff, Kelly said he has since gone back to the port to open discussions again, but to no avail. In what Kelly said is the last email correspondence he’s received from a port commissioner on the issue, Commissioner Bill Larsen said the board had presented its best and final offer and it was up to him to choose. “The board is commit-

ted to economic growth and development as well as maintaining the historic heritage of all our holdings,” Larsen wrote. “Our decisions are based on what’s best for the port, the waterfront, the community and our business partners. .. It is my belief that we have spent significant and adequate time in arriving at our decision.” Kelly said if he can’t get the commissioners to reopen discussions, he has two options. “I have the choice to sell the boat and bag the deal or go somewhere else,” he said. Lynda Eccles, executive director for the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce has followed the discussions and Kelly’s efforts to start the business. “One of the No. 1 questions we get is, ‘Do you have boat tours?’” she said. “I was excited when the idea was first presented. “I was excited we were possibly going to be able to offer it.”

Greenbank Farm to host dog training event Saturday Greenbank Farm is one of the many places on Whidbey Island that offer the opportunity for dogs to walk off-leash, but it also invites people to walk without dogs to explore all the farm has to offer.

Tales from the cemetery tour

TOWN OF COUPEVILLE

Historians to share knowledge about Sunnyside’s residents By Ron Newberry Staff Reporter

The granite grave marker of one of Whidbey Island’s most influential early pioneers rests in a family plot surrounded by a white picket fence and fir trees. It seems only fitting that in this section of Sunnyside Cemetery reserved for early settlers, Isaac Ebey’s remains are interred not far from an overlook that provides a sweeping view of the prairie that bears his name. Or are they? Ebey’s life, and more specifically his death, is the subject of most curiosity by guests greeted by Sally Straathof at the Jacob Ebey House, which serves as a visitor station along the Ebey’s Prairie Trail in Coupeville. Straathof will begin her sixth season working as historical interpreter for Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve and also will serve as a Memorial Day Heritage Tour guide at Sunnyside Cemetery Monday. She and local historian Roger Sherman will take guests on the one-hour tour starting at 1 p.m. Passes, which cost $5, are available at the Island County Historical Society Museum and also may be purchased at the tour. When Straathof encounters visitors at the Jacob Ebey

House, the historic home of Isaac Ebey’s father located a short walk from the cemetery, questions often center around Isaac’s tragic death. Ebey arrived on Whidbey Island in 1850 as one of the island’s first permanent settlers and quickly rose to prominence, becoming a candidate for Washington territorial governor. But those dreams ended in gruesome fashion, Aug. 11, 1857, when he was shot and beheaded at his home near Ebey’s Landing by a party of northern Native Americans in retaliation for the death of a chief and other tribal members. Ebey’s headless remains were buried on a family plot on the property, located a short distance from the present day Ferry House. “Everybody in the Ebey family was buried there until the opening of Sunnyside Cemetery in 1865,” Straathof said. “It was presumed the bodies were exhumed and taken to Sunnyside. We don’t know that for sure.” Sherman has his doubts. “I have a little trouble believing they’d go down with a shovel and dig the bodies up,” Sherman said. “I just kind of wonder if they moved the monuments.” The cemetery, its history and its lore, are near and dear to Sherman, whose family

Sherman is approaching 80 and looking to step down from his role as cemetery commissioner at the end of the year. As a local historian and longtime tour guide, he’s cutting back those responsibilities, too, and passing on wisdom to Straathof. They’ll combine efforts Monday, sharing tales and bringing pioneer history to life with their words.

The oldest marker at the cemetery belongs to Winfield Ebey, Isaac’s brother, who was buried in 1865. It was his death that prompted the family to create a new graveyard on the hill that would later

become Sunnyside Cemetery, named after a family farm in Pennsylvania. “Everybody wants to be buried on the hillside,” Sherman joked. “But if they’re buried, they can’t enjoy the view very much.”

Port may need to reconsider newly set passenger fee For several months commissioners with the Port of Coupeville have been discussing the potential lease of a new harbor tours business. That business, Heavenly Harbor Tours run by Patrick Kelly, would feature hourly historic tours of Penn Cove and also could be utilized as a water taxi to and from the Captain Whidbey Inn. At maximum capacity, the boat could seat 14 people per tour, with as many as 12 tours each day. Kelly said his business model has tickets running about $25 for the tour, but in the beginning he plans on offering discounts and deals to build ridership. There’s no doubt that, if successful, this harbor tours business could bring in viable business revenue to the community. The problem is, the port and Kelly can’t seem to agree on lease terms. The port is set on terms of $300 a month moorage, waived for the first year, and a $1 per head passenger fee. Kelly is set on $300 a month moorage and no passenger fee. His reasoning is no other marinas in the area charge a per-head fee — not Deception Pass and not South Whidbey. Port officials said they’re not in the business of making money, but they aren’t going to spend more than they can take in and turning the wharf into a commercial enterprise will increase their expenses. Seemingly, the two parties seem to be fighting over $1. But those dollars do add up. Kelly claims he could be paying the port more than $5,000 a month in passenger fees during the peak season. For a small starting business, that does seem like a lot. Kelly said he is still hoping to come to an agreement and is even willing to consider the per-head fee if commissioners can show him their reasoning. The problem is, commissioners are set in their final offer and aren’t open to further discussions. While commissioners say they are here to support economic development in Coupeville, shutting down discussions on a potentially thriving business doesn’t seem to be the way to this. We understand that the port has two historic entities to manage and maintain. We fully encourage the port’s efforts to tighten its policies and procedures and find ways to increase revenue to become a thriving enterprise. But shutting down potential business and revenue because someone questions the justification behind certain charges seems counterproductive. In an effort to show it is supportive of new business, the port did offer to waive moorage for the first year. In a show of further good faith, perhaps the port should reopen discussions and be open to considering a cap on the passenger fee.

Thanks for another great water festival Editor, The 23rd Penn Cove Water Festival is now history and the board is already looking to next year’s event on May 16, 2015. After months of diligent planning and endless hours donated by staff and volunteers, there’s a feeling of overwhelming pride to see the festival in all its dimensions bring a special day of life and liveliness to our historic Front Street. This year’s event was a tremendous success and as president of the Penn Cove Water Festival Association, I want to express bountiful appreciation to all who contributed to this ongoing tradition.

From the opening ceremonies to the closing dances by the Tshimshain Haayuuk Dancers, from the strains of a Native American flute to canoes gliding through Penn Cove, from prairie tours to face painting, there was something for everyone. One participant even admitted to eating three salmon tacos. While this festival has deep roots in our community’s history and is a celebration of our heritage, it continues to bring locals and tourists together in a contemporary setting where we can reflect on beautiful Penn Cove as it was in the 1930s when Native Americans came together for canoe races and camaraderie. Today, we are the fortunate ones who can still enjoy, remember and experience this history. The creative collaboration involved in putting on such an event is typical of the community where we live and thrive.

It enables us to once again feel a special pride in our local town, civic organizations, service clubs, local media and the many dedicated individuals who made this a grand success. We also acknowledge and thank the Native American entertainers and vendors, as well as the environmental groups that participated. It is impossible to mention all who contributed to the success of this festival in this letter. As plans are underway for next year, we need new volunteers for committees. Please reflect on this year’s festival and get involved so that 2015 will be the best ever and it can continue into the future. Please check our website at penncovewaterfestival.com for a complete list of our fantastic volunteers, our mission, our history and contact information.

Vicky Reyes, president Penn Cove Water Festival

The return of the munching menaces toni grove sowin ’n’ the trowel Just when you thought it was safe to sit under the fruit trees, tent caterpillars have been spotted on the island and they’re getting ready to chomp, chomp, chomp their way through your orchards and landscaping. Now that I’ve got your attention, take a deep breath and try to relax. Tent caterpillars can be a certifiable pain in the neck, but they don’t spell the end of the world – or the end of your garden. Western tent caterpillars are the larvae of the moth Malacosoma californicum. On branches of mostly deciduous trees they’ll lay grey masses of eggs that winter

over until around first bud break. That’s when the tiny larvae begin to weave their webby communal homes in the crotches of tree branches. If your fruit trees are small enough, you can sometimes find the egg cases and remove them before the eggs have a chance to hatch. From July to early spring look for grey, crusty masses encircling small branches or patches on larger branches and scrape them off. The tents are small and sometimes hard to spot when they’re new, so examine your trees well. They love the local red alder trees, but look for them on fruit trees or any other deciduous trees. I’ve found them on roses, flowering red currants and catoneaster too, so don’t assume they’ll stick to their usual haunts. They start out small and black, but as they grow they develop a dotted white stripe

down the center of their backs with a lot of yellowgold on either side. As they plump out to about two inches in length, their tents will also grow to accommodate their expanding girth. Each morning they’ll venture out to feed on the leaves of their host trees and march like army ants across your deck railings and fences. Only one generation is born per year, but their total numbers will increase and decrease over successive years in anywhere from a three to seven year cycle. Some years it seems like a plague of biblical proportions with creepy crawlies dotting the grass like dew drops; other years their tents are few and far between. The weather and temperature can be limiting factors in caterpillar populations, as well as a parasitic wasp that loves to lay its eggs on the caterpillars’ heads.

Even in “plague” years the damage they inflict is usually more of an aesthetic nuisance than a real threat. However, for many people the ick factor alone can be enough to warrant their control If you can reach the nest, remove it branch and all and dispose of it, or you can squish it. This is sometimes enough to collapse the colony. If you attack them in the early morning when they’re all still in bed, even better. If you spray BT, or Bacillus thuringiensis, as a biological control, know that it will kill all caterpillars, not just the ones you want to get rid of. You must spray as much of the foliage as possible because they need to eat a lot of it to get sick and die. If you decide instead to use a contact insecticide, be sure you’ve read and understand the directions and warnings on the label and spray it only on the tents, and

do it in the early morning when you can get them all. Finally, don’t set the nests on fire while they’re still in the trees. Admit it, you want to do it. I know you do.

Coupeville teams racking up wins in postseason By Jim Waller Staff Reporter

Coupeville High School is leaving a positive mark in the postseason as it enters the heart of the playoffs. The Wolves’ baseball team earned a spot in the state tournament with two wins at tri-district Saturday. (See page 1 for details.) The softball team qualified for tri-district by placing fourth in the district tournament last weekend in SedroWoolley. In track, Makana Stone continued lowering her school records as the Wolves competed in the district meet last week at Lynden Christian High School. Coupeville took home two fourth-place finishes in district tennis, and golfer Christine Fields qualified for her third consecutive tridistrict meet.

Wolf softball team heads to tri-district

The Coupeville softball team placed fourth in the district 1A playoffs, thus earning a berth in the tri-district tournament which will also be played at Sedro-Woolley’s Janiki Playfields. After losing to Lynden Christian 15-7 in the opening round Friday, Coupeville qualified for tri-district by defeating Meridian 6-2 Friday and Nooksack Valley 3-2 Saturday. With a tri-district slot guaranteed and short on pitching, the Wolves dropped the game for third and fourth place 20-4 to Blaine Saturday. At tri-district, Coupeville will play the No. 3 seed out of District 3 at noon Saturday,

May 24, in a loser-out game. If the Wolves win, they will need to win one of the next two games (2 and 4 p.m.) to advance to the state tournament. In the win over Meridian, Coupeville slugged 12 hits, including four doubles. Emily Coulter finished 3-for-3 with a double; Maddi Strasburg had two doubles; Hailey Hammer and Madi Roberts collected two hits each; and McKayla Bailey doubled. Bailey threw a complete game and retired the final 11 Trojan batters. The defense was the hero as Coupeville locked up a tri-district berth with the win over Nooksack Valley. Bailey battled through a sore, weary arm to strand 10 Pioneer base runners and her mates helped by turning three double plays. The game fittingly ended on a twin killing. Monica Vidoni, after catching a fly ball, fired a perfect one-hop strike to third baseman Emily Licence to gun down the runner trying to advance. Hammer led the offense with two hits, including a double and RBI; Messner added two singles and a run batted in; and Coulter had an RBI double. In the loss to Blaine, walks by relief pitchers fueled two big innings for the Borderittes. Coupeville collected only three hits: a double by Bailey and singles by Hammer and Messner. Against Lynden Christian, Strasburg blasted a bases-loaded home run and Emily Licence hit a two-run double in the first inning. In all, the first 10 CoupeNORA DURAND

of a second off her school 400 meter record at district, placing second in 59.35. She also placed second in the 200 (26.87). Sylvia Hurlburt finished fifth in the 100 (13.31) and fourth in the 200 (28). Stone and Hurlburt teamed with Lauren Grove and Marisa Etzell to nab fourth in the 4x200 relay (1:50.23). For the Coupeville boys, Jared Helmstadter ran fifth in the 400 (54.79).

Thorne/Ginnings, Hanigan nab 4th

Singles player Allie Hanigan lost 7-5, 7-6 to Abbie Steele of Nooksack Valley in the second day of the tournament Friday, May 16, in Coupeville to finish fourth. Hanigan won two of three matches Tuesday, May 13, to set up the match with Steele. In doubles action at South Whidbey Friday, Jacki Ginnings and Wynter Thorne fell to a duo from Blaine 6-3, 6-3 and placed fourth. Tuesday, Ginnings and Thorne lost their opening match but recovered to win two straight, including a victory over the No. 2 seeded squad. “They had a pretty impressive tourney, if you take into consideration that they were the eighth-seeded team,” coach Ken Stange said.

Stone again lowers school 400 record Four girls and one boy from the track team placed

in the top five at the district 1A meet at Lynden Christian Friday and qualified for the tri-district meet. The first day of tri-district begins at 4 p.m. Thursday, May 21, at King’s. The meet wraps up Saturday beginning at 11 a.m. The top five finishers in each event earn berths in the state meet. Stone sliced three-tenths

Live the Island Dream…

Fields, who qualified for the past two state tournaments, overcame a rough first nine holes at the district tournament at the North Bellingham Golf and Country Club Thursday, May 15, to qualify for the tri-district tournament. Tri-district was Tuesday at Bremerton’s Golf Mountain Golf Course; results were not available at press time. The top 16 at tri-district qualified for state. District was played with a shotgun start, and Fields shot a 58 on holes 4 through 12. She settled in on the second nine, carding a 43 to finish with a 101 to place 10th.

pitching effort by Ben Etzell. Etzell threw a completegame three hitter, striking out 12 and walking five. Nine of the strikeouts came with runners in scoring position as he pitched out of trouble in each of the final four innings. Overlake’s biggest threat came in the seventh. Three walks, the last intentional, loaded the bases with one out, bring up the top of the Growler order. Etzell then fanned the next two batters, the last on a nail-biting 3-2 pitch. Overlake pitcher Matt Kaiser matched Etzell zerofor-zero until the eighth. He pitched a four-hitter, struck out seven and walked four. Etzell, who had a double, and Smith accounted for Coupeville’s four hits, get-

nounce made it official during the candidate filing period, which ended last Friday. Grone, the second in command in the treasurer’s office, said she knew she may face termination by running against Treasurer Ana Maria Nunez, who hired her three years ago. The position is atwill and she can be terminated without cause. But she felt strongly that change was needed in the office and faulted her boss for being unresponsive to the public and not having a strong work ethic. Nunez said that Grone’s decision to run against her and not tell her ahead of time shows that she can no longer trust her. “The chief deputy position is one that requires loyalty. It’s someone who is the confidant of the elected official,” she said. “It’s someone I need to be able to trust.” A third candidate, Coupeville resident Christa Canell, also entered the race. She works at Land Title and Escrow. Nunez is a Democrat. Her two challengers are Republicans. Coupeville resident Becky Wagner filed to run against Island County Auditor Sheilah Crider. Wagner is an independent and Crider is a Republican. Wagner is the financial director at Senior Services of Island County and formerly the chief accountant at the Skagit

County Auditor’s Office. As expected, four Republican and one Democratic candidates have filed for the District 3 commissioner position abandoned by Kelly Emerson. The Republican candidates are Camano resident Aubrey Vaughan, Oak Harbor resident Rick Hannold, Camano resident Marc Hennemann and Camano resident Kelly Bagley. Karla Jacks, a Camano Island resident, is the sole Democratic candidates. County Assessor Mary Wilson-Engle, County Clerk Debra Van Pelt, Coroner Robert Bishop, Prosecutor Greg Banks, District Court Judge Bill Hawkins and Sheriff Mark Brown are all running unopposed. State Rep. Dave Hayes, a Camano Island Republican, has attracted three challengers for his 10th district position. Oak Harbor resident David Sponheim and Mount Vernon resident Nick Petrish are running as Democrats Oak Harbor resident Brien Lillquist filed to run against Hayes as a Republican. Rep. Norma Smith, a Republican from Clinton, has two challengers. Camano Island resident Michael Scott is running as a Libertarian. U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Arlington, also has one challenger. Mike Lapointe of Everett is running as an independent. Marysville resident B.J. Guillot is a Republican.

ting two each. Until the eighth, the Wolves never had a base runner with less than two outs. At one stretch, from the fourth through the seventh, only one Coupeville hitter reached base (Wade Schaef walked in the fifth). With one out in the eighth, Schaef walked again. Tumblin hit a grounder to shortstop, which forced Schaef at second. The late throw to first to try to double-up Tumblin skipped by the first baseman and allowed Tumblin to advance to second, setting up Smith’s game-winning hit. In the top of the eighth, a lead-off single and error put a runner at second with no outs. Etzell, who threw well over 100 pitches, then finished his day with three straight strikeouts. The last two with a runner on third

after a passed ball. Had the game gone to the ninth inning, Coupeville coach Willie Smith said he would have turned to Aaron Trumbull to finish the game. Etzell admitted after the game he was spent. He also said he wasn’t concerned when he faced the basesloaded, one-out situation in the seventh even though he put two of the runners on with walks. “I have the mind set, that whenever runners get on second or third, I am not going to let them score.” Scoring came quickly for Coupeville in the win over Charles Wright/Life Christian Academy of Tacoma. The Wolves scored four runs in the first inning thanks to singles by Tumblin, Josh Bayne and Cole Payne and a two-run double from Aaron Curtin.

Charles Wright trimmed the lead to 4-3 in the sixth, then Coupeville scored two more. Bayne and Curtin singled and Korbin Korzan was hit by a pitch, loading the bases. Wade Schaef followed with a bunt that began a crazy sequence. The bunt scored Bayne and Schaef was safe at first when no one covered the base. On the bunt, Curtin tried to score from second and was thrown out. Schaef bolted for second base, and on the throw to second Korbin scored. Curtin finished 2-for3 with a double and three RBI, Etzell was 2-for-3 and the Wolves finished with nine hits. While the offense was putting up six runs, Coupeville pitcher C.J. Smith threw a completegame, five-hitter.

Electrical Contractors For many ailing, anxious or disabled animals, the experience of the trip to the vet adds stress and further complicates health or behavioral issues. If your pet’s health is ailing, limiting the amount of time that they spend anxious or distressed can keep them more comfortable and can actually prolong their life.
