Corps group brings a new approach to volunteer work AmeriCorps crew will tackle a variety of projects at five locations on Vashon By NATALIE MARTIN Staff Writer

National Civilian Conservation Corps volunteers Kestrel Peavy, Nate Nesslar, Mel Meder and Ashley Westpheling clear a patch of ivy at Lisabeula Park last Thursday. The volunteer group will do work in four more locations.
When Jaq Sarah French graduated from New York University with a degree in theater, she was unsure what she’d do next. The self-professed city girl said she’d rarely ventured outside Manhattan the last four years and was ready for a change. She found that change, and last week French was in cargo pants and boots, raking at Vashon’s Lisabeula Park. “I think I need to spend some time focusing on other people,” she said, taking a break from her task last Thursday. “All the time that people have given to me, I want to pay it forward.” French is among a dozen young people who will spend two months on Vashon volunteering through the National Civilian Conservation Corp (NCCC), a branch of AmeriCorps. While NCCC groups have regularly worked at Camp Sealth, it’s the first time a crew will do projects islandwide. In the coming weeks, the diverse group of 18- to 24-year-olds will build a rain garden at Sunrise Ridge, care for fruit trees at the food SEE CORPS, 19
A missing memorial
On Vashon Highway, one woman works to honor a stranger By SARAH LOW Staff Writer
Anyone who has driven on the north end of Vashon Highway in recent years is likely familiar with the roadside memorial to Patrick Byrd, who was killed in an accident there in 1999. But the heartbreaking “We miss you Daddy!” emblazoned on the white cross under his name will no longer be a tragic reminder of the incident, as the cross disappeared about two weeks ago. While other roadside memorials have been taken down over time on Vashon, the missing cross came as a shock to Linda Peterson, an islander who lives nearby and has quietly but faithfully tended to Byrd’s memorial for the last 16 years. “It’s just gone,” Peterson said last week. “It’s not lying anywhere nearby, and there is a per-
fect hole where it had been. It looks like it’s just been pulled straight out of the ground.” Byrd was a musician from Puyallup who, along with his wife and a friend, came to Vashon on New Year’s Eve 1998 to play for the evening’s festivities at the golf club. On their way to the north-end ferry in the early morning hours of Jan. 1, 1999, their van was rear ended by a drunk driver and sent off the highway and into a tree. Byrd died of his injuries, while his wife and their friend were also injured but survived. The Byrds had four children. It has been presumed that someone in the Byrd family placed the cross at the site sometime during the year after the accident, though Byrd’s wife Wendy told The Beachcomber in 2001 that she could never SEE MEMORIAL, 20

With permit in hand, a Seattle developer plans to break ground on a 16-unit vacation retreat behind Vashon Village this month. Scott Shapiro, managing director of Eagle Rock Ventures, said the real estate and development firm received its construction permit for the project in late December, nearly two years after it applied. It now plans to break ground on the project, called The Lodges on Vashon, in the next couple of weeks. “We’re excited about it,� Shapiro said last week. “We’re excited to be open and fill a much needed resource on the island.� The Lodges on Vashon will include 16 free-standing units designed by Eagle Rock and prefabricated by a company in Idaho. The structures will come to the island via ferry about six weeks after work at the site begins. “We designed these lodges specifically for the site,� Shapiro said. A hotel at the large lot behind Vashon Village was first proposed several years ago, when former owner Dan McClary

announced plans to build a 24-room inn there. However, McClary became entrenched in a disagreement with Water District 19 over water shares at the property. After a 33-month legal battle, the two sides settled in 2009, allowing McClary to build a 16-room inn that incorporates water-saving measures. However McClary never built the inn, and he eventually sold the property, as well as Vashon Village, to Shapiro. In early 2014, Water District 19 made it possible for Eagle Rock to build a hotel with 16 separate units instead of one main building when it passed a policy allowing new developments providing temporary lodging to split water shares among multiple structures. Eagle Rock originally planned to begin the project much sooner, and at one point planned to open the lodges last summer. However, working with the water district and going through the permitting process took longer than the firm had hoped, he said. King County’s Department of Permitting and Environmental Review (DPER) issued the permit on Dec. 26, and Eagle Rock picked it up late last month. Shapiro said he’s now waiting on one minor permit he expects will be issued this week. Work at the site will likely start soon, he said, and Eagle Rock hopes to have the lodges open by Memorial Day.

Park board says no again to increasing user fees The board of the Vashon Park District voted down a proposal last week that would have raised fees for using the island’s athletic fields as well as school gyms, classrooms and meeting rooms. The proposal, put forward by commissioner Scott Harvey, also called for decreases in fees for using Paradise Ridge and Ober Park. Commissioner Doug Ostrom amended the motion to remove a clause that would have decreased fees at the Vashon Pool after members of the Friends of the Vashon Pool and the pool manager Scott Bonney said they weren’t interested in lower fees there. Since November, Harvey has been trying to adjust user fees, saying he wants to bring more fairness to what different users pay for park facilities. His first proposal, which he brought forward in December after studying park district numbers and holding a community meeting, would have decreased park district revenue by about $25,000. That motion also failed. At the Jan. 27 meeting, his newest motion failed 2-3, and members split as they had previously, with Harvey and Ostrom voting yes and commissioners Joe Wald, LuAnn Branch and Bill Ameling voting no. Branch and Ameling both said they thought changes to the current fee structure were not necessary and noted that users have not asked for fee decreases. At the meeting, Charlie Krimmert, the president of the Vashon Lacrosse Club, also spoke out against the proposal, saying higher fees for using sports fields would be a burden on the club. At the Jan. 27 meeting, the board also voted unanimously to put the park district’s mainte-

Vashon man pleads not guilty in January crime spree An island man recently pleaded not guilty to multiple criminal charges after an alleged crime spree on Vashon in early January. Jesse James Mish, 24, was charged in King County Superior Court with felony harassment, second and third degree assault and residential burglary. According to court documents, the charges stem from a string of incidents beginning Jan. 3, when Mish made threats to multiple people and rammed a car with his truck. He later rammed a patrol car with his truck, causing a King County Sheriff’s Deputy to fire shots at him before he fled the scene. Mish was arrested the morning of Jan. 4 at a vacant waterfront home he had broken into and was charged on Jan. 7. Mish pleaded not guilty to the charges in a hearing on Jan. 21. Mish’s lawyer, Bob Krinsky, said that it is normal for a defendant to plead not guily in a first court appearance. Krinsky said he is still gathering information and there could be opportunity to negotiate with the county. Mish’s next court appearance, a case setting hearing, is scheduled for Thursday, Feb. 5. Mish remains in King County Jail on $50,000 bail.
Recycle light bulbs The King County transfer station is now accepting light bulbs that contain mercury, such as compact fluorescent bulbs and tubes. The recycling service is free.

‘Spell It’ event raises funds for scholarships The Vashon Community Scholarship Foundation will host its annual spelling bee on Saturday. The popular tradition, now in its ninth year, typically draws numerous contestants as well as a full audience. As of Monday, 12 teams had signed up, according to organizer Barbara Gustafson, who noted that more teams are encouraged to participate. Registration is allowed up until the beginning of the bee. Among this year’s contestants are a “good showing” of high school students, Gustafson added, and six AmeriCorps volunteers. Other high school students will perform music to set the mood for the evening. Proceeds from the bee help support the foundation, which provides scholarships to graduating seniors every year. Last year the organization gave out 195 scholarships to 92 seniors, totaling $138,000. This year Dean and Mary Andrews have offered a door prize of a two night stay at their island bed and breakfast, Andrio’s Guest House. To be eligible for the drawing, pick up an entry form at Vashon Bookshop and bring the form plus a canned food donation for the Vashon food bank to the event; the winner must be present to win. The competition always presents a spelling challenge. In recent years, teams have won by having a knack for a wide range of words, winning on such words as cuneiform, phycomycete and ichneumon. The bee will be held at 7 p.m. Saturday at Camp Burton. Tickets are $10 for students and seniors and $15 for adults. For registration information, contact Gustafson at 463-1638 or rggbdg@yahoo. com. For more information about the scholarship fund, see vashonscholarshipfoundation.org.

Longtime accounting firm bought by North Carolina CPA No staffing changes are planned By NATALIE MARTIN Staff Writer
Williams & Callan, a local accounting firm with about 600 clients, has changed hands. As of Jan. 2, the firm is owned by Jeffrey Cole, a certified public accountant who is moving from North Carolina to take over the business. The accounting firm has been on the island since the 1970s and has changed hands several times. Former owners Digby Williams and Mike Callan purchased it in 2002 and have a branch in West Seattle as well. In 2007, Williams and Callan also founded SwizzNet, a cloud hosting company for accountants and bookkeepers. SwizzNet has grown substantially, Callan said, and the pair recently decided to sell their Vashon office in order to focus more on SwizzNet. “The business is now to a point where I can no longer split my time between the two companies,” said Callan, who managed the Vashon branch, in a recent letter to clients. Callan plans to move to Florida, where he will focus on his work as CEO of SwizzNet, while Williams will continue to manage the West Seattle office. Cole has been licensed as a CPA for 20 years and recently sold his own accounting firm with offices in Robbinsville, North Carolina, and Blairsville, Georgia. Cole and
his wife are originally from the Puget Sound area and have been hoping to return for some time, he said, to be closer to family and to help care for his wife’s mother, who lives in Port Orchard. When Cole learned that the Williams & Callan branch was for sale, it seemed like a perfect opportunity. “This just made a lot of sense,” he said. “It’s an established practice with an outstanding reputation.” In addition to his accounting background, Cole is an ordained minister with a master’s degree in divinity and is a chaplain in the National Guard. He founded a Cherokee Indian Baptist church in North Carolina, and before starting his accounting firm, he was chief financial officer of The Master’s Mission, a worldwide missions organization headquartered in North Carolina. He is also an active volunteer and has served on the boards of a domestic abuse shelter, a nonprofit dedicated to preserving the Cherokee language and an organization that serves amputees. Cole plans to move his family, including his three children, to Vashon this June. He noted that his family currently lives in a small town in North Carolina that he called similar to Vashon. “To plug into a place that is a small community is attractive to us,” he said. Both Cole and Callan said that other than the name, clients shouldn’t notice any significant changes at the firm, as all nine staff members are staying there. “Their experience is going to be unchanged,” Callan said.

EDITORIAL
Consider what it takes to fuel your food
Memorials a reminder that we can prevent deaths
Grow your own food and buy locally to support island farms
The story behind the highway memorial to Patrick Byrd on today’s front page is also a reminder of the many lives lost to car accidents on Vashon since Byrd’s death in 1999. Some are marked by memorials, and some are not, but every fatal car wreck has sent shock waves through the island. In the last year alone, three people have been killed in collisions on Vashon Highway, the island’s most travelled route. Two of the accidents were on the busy stretch of highway between Vashon town and the north end. We’ve mourned the vicImpaired driving was tims of these accidents, a cause in nearly half many of whom have been well known in our small of the fatal traffic accidents in King County community. But we’ve also left to wonder how between 2008 and 2012. been these wrecks could have happened, questioning the safety of roads we travel so often. Official causes have not been released for two of the recent crashes, one of which was a single-car accident. The third accident, last spring, occurred when a driver who was apparently not paying close attention hit and killed a motorcyclist. Other accidents, such as the one that killed Byrd, have been the result of drunk driving. Though the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol are well known, it is still a top cause of fatal crashes in King County and Washington state overall. Between 2008 to 2012, 200 people died in impaired driver-involved crashes in the county, accounting for 47 percent of all traffic fatalities during that time period. Unfortunately, driving under the influence is still a common occurrence, something event smart people have been known to do in a moment of bad decision making. Driving while talking on the phone or texting is also far too common and can have deadly consequences. While roadside memorials are both a way to honor lives lost and remind others about dangers on the road, traffic officials have reservations about them. Flashy or elaborate memorials can be a distraction, have been proven to cause drivers to slow down and could lead to other accidents. Officials encourage memorials that use natural plantings and have low signs or plaques. The state and King County now both offer official road signs that bear messages such as “Please don’t drink and drive” and “Please watch for pedestrians” along with the names of victims. However we chose to honor victims, we should keep in mind that many of the accidents that have rattled our island were preventable. A reminder about the risks behind the wheel, it seems, is never a bad idea.
As an organic farmer on Vashon, I feel a great appreciation for our customers. By buying the food we grow, you make our livelihood possible. Buying locally and organically grown food is good for you, for your farmers and also for our larger community. One benefit of a local organic food connection that is sometimes overlooked is that it can save energy and shrink agriculture’s carbon footprint. At its heart, farming is about the miracle of photosynthesis. Plants directly use the sun’s energy to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and water and nutrients from the soil to produce the food energy that feeds all life on earth. In an intact natural ecosystem, plants absorb enough energy not only to feed all the animals in the ecosystem, but also to build up carbon stores in plant biomass and in the soil. The craft of farming involves managing the collection of solar energy to produce food as well as fiber and other crops. How this craft is carried out makes a big difference for how efficiently the sun’s energy reaches us as food and for food’s carbon footprint. My nephew, who rides an electric bike, recently told me of research demonstrating that riding an electric bicycle can have a smaller carbon footprint than riding a regular bicycle. Food provides the energy required to power a bike. Farming provides that food. Modern conventional agriculture consumes approximately 10 calories of fossil fuel to produce one calorie of food. Maybe we’d be better off if we could eat gasoline. As currently practiced on a large scale, conventional agriculture contributes significantly to the emissions that cause global climate change. The production of synthetic fertilizers alone accounts for almost a third of agriculture’s energy cost and carbon footprint. Farm machinery and transportation combined account for another third. Farming practices that

Illness
Let’s reduce plastic cup use
Stay home when sick
It occurred to me that most of us have gotten used to taking our own grocery bags when we shop. Well done, fellow Vashonites. I have a suggestion to further reduce our plastic use. When attending functions on Vashon, be it First Friday or one of the many fundraiser auctions or other events where wine or beer is a choice, why not pack your own glass? You won’t confuse it with the many plastic ones that might be left on a table, and hey, doesn’t wine really taste a whole lot better when it’s not served in plastic? I recently did this at an event at the O Space and it worked out really well. So whaddya say, Vashon? Let’s go for less plastic in 2015.
About five weeks ago, I shopped at a high volume retailer on our island. The cashier who checked me out was clearly sick with a cold; I should have ducked that line as soon as I realized, but I didn’t. I got the cold; it became pneumonia, and struggling to breathe, I went through two courses of antibiotics and a truly vile month lost to illness. Many islanders caught viruses this month: severe colds, flu, bronchitis, pneumonia. Please, please, please, people, don’t go to work sick. Especially don’t go in if you’re interacting with the public. Some of those you’ll contact have fragile immune systems. And employers, please make sure you have sick leave so your employees don’t have to work while ill. You could save a life. Thank you.

Tips for maintaining a healthy smile with DR. MARC O. LANGLAND
DID YOU KNOW? It is more important to floss than brush your teeth. One of the most common areas of decay in the mouth is between the teeth. This is because food and plaque between the teeth are not easily washed away. Other surfaces of the teeth are in constant contact with the cheeks, tongue and lips which help to remove debris and plaque. Saliva also aids in cavity prevention by bathing these areas in water, calcium and phosphate which dilutes acid and rebuilds tooth structure. With a healthy diet, this natural cleansing process helps to protect the exposed Marc O. Langland, DDS surfaces of teeth from decay. The most effective way to protect the areas between the teeth is to floss regularly. The floss breaks up plaque between the teeth and removes cavity causing bacteria. Many people only floss when they feel something stuck between the teeth but it is important to remember that the most beneficial part of flossing is the removal of cavity-causing microscopic bacteria. All this being said…we highly recommend brushing in addition to flossing! (206) 463-9282 • www.VashonIslandDental.com

IT’S YOUR HISTORY
By Chris Austin
Ferry Follies
If you read last week’s paper you probably shook your head at the articles describing legislative wrangling for Washington State Ferries’ fares and schedules. Our lawmakers’ “will they or won’t they?” soap opera has become so common I think Hallmark makes a card for it. While the news stories are cautiously optimistic that things will get better, the situation could possibly take a downturn and, if it does, cross our fingers it won’t be as bad as it used to be. Before we had a state ferry system the boats taking people and goods across the water were in private hands and by the 1930s it was a virtual monopoly. The ominously named Black Ball Line held Vashon and Maury islands hostage to its fare increases and labor strikes. These activities had very real consequences. Testifying before a department of public services W. M. Beall, our famous floral entrepreneur, stated that low ferry rates in the previous years had increased the island’s population which led to paved roads and improved electricity and water systems. C. B. Taylor a Vashon real estate agent added that because of the previous year’s strike and following rate change property values had fallen by 25 percent. The issue came to a boil in 1938 when thirty some citizens actually captured the ferry Elwha so that islanders would not be marooned. Residents even traveled to Olympia and sat outside the capitol building awaiting Governor Clarence D.Martin. They picketed the ongoing ferry strike with banners that read, “How the hell can we sell our berries unless they give us back our ferries?“ and “No boats, no votes.” Yet with a world war looming the issue sat on the back burner but was not forgotten. A decade later 10,000 commuters across the Sound were stranded in yet another work stoppage. Relief efforts included a Navy ship pressed in to action and the Bremerton-Seattle Airlines flying a beefed up schedule. Vashon itself employed the services of a 42-passenger cabin boat for hourly runs to Fauntleroy and a 50-passenger launch was used for trips between the south part of the island and Tacoma. Later that year vigilante Vashonites employed a different tactic with the Black Ball Line. They patrolled the docks, some armed with clubs, and prevented the ferry Illahee from docking or letting the passengers disembark. Local support was widespread and included the women of the Vashon Heights Community Club who offered free coffee and doughnuts to the protesters. In March of the next year a legal entity was formed named the King County Ferry District No. 1 that finally gave Vashon its own water transportation system. While this was a short-lived enterprise it did demonstrate to what lengths islanders would go for reliable, low cost ferry service. Was there ever a good time for ferry service? Everything is relative but perhaps the 1920s were the best years to travel to and from the rock. It was a time when passenger steam ships were plentiful and the rise of the automobile brought with it ferry docks at Portage, Vashon Heights, and Tahlequah, so competition was keen. The next time we wait, yet again, for the funding of our ferries feel lucky that we don’t have to capture one.

The show will run through March. Heron’s Nest will feature the sterling silver and stone Zuzko jewelry by Zuzana Korbelarova. A former painter, Korbelarova began designing jewelry after searching for jewelry she liked. Korbelarova’s husband gifted her with tools and a jewelry class to learn how to create her own wearable art. The new Hinge Gallery will officially open its doors with a ribbon-untying ceremony hosted by the chamber of commerce at 5:30 p.m., followed by live accordion/ banjo music and spirits offered by Seattle Distilling Company.

Gasoi invented mindhand coordination, a technique designed to directly capture the flow of his visions, in mixed media. His work has been shown nationally and internationally. Robert Leung’s kinetic and whimsical work will be shown at The Hardware Store Restaurant.

Vashon Opera presents a free show for children Vashon Opera will present a free performance of “The Music Shop” for the children of the island at 10:30 a.m. Saturday at Chautauqua Elementary School. The laughs will begin when a mild-mannered man named Ivan stops by a sheet music shop to purchase a song for his wife, but the poor man can’t remember the title or tune of the song, and his train for home is leaving soon from the station. The shop owner Dimitri and his assistant Masha try to help the hapless husband, but Ivan knows nothing about music. While the shopkeepers sing bits of well-known tunes to jog his memory, Ivan is plagued by hallucinations of his demanding Wagnerian soprano wife. A chorus of children joins in, singing famous opera excerpts to try to help Ivan remember the tune, but to no avail. Fortunately for all, the ending is happy and funny. Performers include soprano Holly Boaz and baritone Andrew Krikawa. Additional performers are tenor Joe Farmer, soprano Marita Ericksen and the children’s chorus of 18 island singers ages 3 to 14. The singers are accompanied by pianist Evan Stults. “The Music Shop,” written by American composer Richard Wargo, will be presented as a free performance for island children sponsored by Windermere Vashon.

Gregg Curry & Ragged Glory
Gregg Curry & the Ragged Glory band will play a free show at 8:30 p.m. Friday at the Red Bike. Gregg Curry said “ragged glory” was a sound he first heard on the radio while listening to Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, The Band, Neil Young, Tom Petty and others who were making something raw sound glorious. Now, Curry (guitar, vocals) said he’s lucky to work with his band, which includes Rick Dahms on guitars and vocals, Kevin Almeida on bass and vocals, Matthew Chaney on keyboards and drummer Emory Miedema-Boyajian. The band has evolved a sound based on Curry’s original songs — a sort of rock-and-roll tent revival/minstrel show that mixes the sacred, the profane and the in-between into a new yet familiar musical stew. The show is for all ages until 11 p.m., then for ages 21 and older.

Comedy is no mystery in new VHS show | Theater Review By SUSAN McCABE For The Beaachcomber
The Vashon High School theater arts class has taken on a real challenge with its production of playwright Tom Stoppard’s “The Real Inspector Hound.” This play not only keeps the audience wondering whodunit, it keeps us trying to figure out what it is. In fact, the dead body lying on the stage throughout the play — portrayed remarkably well by Axel Chellberg — has only a passing influence on the progress of the story. It isn’t until the farcical close of the 70-minute production that it becomes clear this is Stoppard’s ultimate revenge on theater critics. To reveal that ending would spoil the audience experience. But from the start, the action on stage is secondary to the repartee between two stage critics set prominently stage left. Birdboot and Moon, two imbecilic theater critics, aptly rendered by Xavier Ajeto and Isaac
Hughes, show little interest in the play as they are enthralled with their own conversation about Birdboot’s romantic life and Moon’s obsession with a rival critic. These two young actors play well off each other, maintaining a sense of British comic timing, especially as their mutual hysteria builds. British sensibilities and accents are quite deliberately part of the tutorial director Stephen Floyd is applying to this theater arts play. All the cast members were directed to speak with British accents, and each appears to have chosen a regional inflection to fit their character. Joy Ghigleri does a delightful slight Cockney accent as the nosy maid Mrs. Drudge. Her deadpan facial responses also serve the play’s comic flow. Sarah Raymond, as the ravishing Lady Cynthia Muldoon, maintains her dry London accent and countenance to successfully create a caricature of duplicitous British nobility.
Physically building confidence.

“The Real Inspector Hound” will conclude this weekend. Above, students rehearse a scene from the comedy, which play on Friday evening and Sunday afternoon. Maijah Sanson-Frey plays the foil to Raymond’s Lady Cynthia flashing appropriately insincere amazement at every turn, while Quinn McTighe, as the rakish stranger, is himself ultimately sacrificed to the plot within the plot of the play within the play. The comic timing and plot twists are ably filled out by Miles Wingett as Major Magnus Muldoon and Jevne Meyers as Inspector Hound. These two have some of the best physical comedy opportunities in the entire play, and they pull them off well. The complexity of this comic/melodrama/farce requires that the audience pay
close attention to the dialogue, especially with the minimal amplification available in the new Vashon High School theater. Set against a backdrop created by the multi-talented Phil Dunn, “The Real Inspector Hound” is a real achievement both for the student performers and for their director. The show runs again at 7:30 p.m. Friday and at 3 p.m. and Sunday. Tickets are $5 for everyone and are available at the VHS office, Vashon Bookshop or at the door. — Susan McCabe is an island writer and Voice of Vashon’s station manager.

Boys hoopsters keep on winning The Vashon High School boys’ basketball team remains undefeated in league play and has a stellar 17-1 record overall. Last week, the team notched two more wins to its record, the first against Seattle Christian on Tuesday, Jan. 27. Seattle Christian was at home, and they brought a strong effort to the contest. It was a close game through three quarters. The Pirates went on a 21-6 run to close the game and won comfortably by a score of 56-37. The team defensive effort was a powerful force and is becoming a real strength for
this team. Scoring summary: Jessie Norton 26, Ian Stewart 14, Casper Forest 5, Alex Symbol 4, Sam Schoenberg 3, Sean Delargey 3, Edgar Polkat 1. Last Friday, the Pirates took on Bellevue Christian back home in the comfort of their gym and fans. This one was never close, and the Pirates cruised to a 63-30 victory. The boys will take on Cascade Christian this Friday at an away game and will play Charles Wright at home at 7:15 p.m. Tuesday.
Girls drop two league basketball games By JOEL HILLE For The Beachcomber
The Vashon High School girls’ basketball team traveled to south Seattle on Tuesday, Jan 27, to play the Seattle Christian Warriors. The Warriors played a very solid first half of basketball, torching the Pirates for several 3-pointers to take a 33-18 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Pirates came out after halftime determined to play better defense, and they were somewhat successful, holding the Warriors to 26 second-half points. However, the offense could never seem to get a good run going, scoring only 24 points in the half, and the final score was 59-42 Warriors. The Pirates were led in scoring by Annika Hille with 15 points; Siena Jannetty added 13, and Eva Anderson had 8. Kate Atwell provided solid rebounding by grabbing 10, while Anderson had 6, Hille and Jannetty each had 5, and Lilly Hennessey grabbed 4.
Last Friday, Vashon hosted the Bellevue Christian Vikings. The game started off slowly for both teams, as the Pirates led 5-4 after five minutes of play. However, the Vikings turned the tide in their favor shortly thereafter as they went on a 16-2 run to take a 20-7 lead midway through the second quarter. The Pirates were down 24-10 going into halftime. Unfortunately, the Pirates couldn’t get much offense going after halftime either as the Vikings continued to play good defense, and the third quarter score was 39-15. The fourth quarter proved a little better as the Pirates scored 13 points, but they never really threatened their opponents’ large lead, and the Vikings prevailed by a final score of 47-28. Hille led the Pirates in scoring with 14 points; Anderson added 6, and Hennessey had 4. — Joel Hille is the father of a Pirate basketball player.

Wrestlers head to postseason District contest will be held at the high school By CHERYL PRUETT For The Beachcomber
This Saturday the Vashon High School wrestlers will host the Nisqually League district championships at the high school gym. Wrestling action will begin at 10 a.m. and wrap up in the early afternoon. The top four placers will move on to the regional competition the following weekend. Vashon has slipped to 13th in the overall state
rankings compiled by Washington Wrestling Report. Eight individual wrestlers are currently ranked in the top 12 in the state for their weight classes in the 1A classification. Junior Chase Wickman is the team’s top-ranked wrestler holding the second spot, with Logan Nelson right behind him at third. Luke Larson and Joe Coller are listed at ninth, and in the 10 spot are Hunter Burger, Bryce Hoisington and Chester Pruett. Rounding out the group is Clyde Pruett, who is ranked 11th after a very limited season in a couple of different weight classes. Sophomore Br yce
Hoisington will be back on the mat for the first time since suffering an injury in mid-December, and junior Franklin Easton has been cleared to remove the Darth Vader mask and wrestle unfettered for the first time in six weeks. The coaches and wrestlers are eager to get back on the mat after a week off spent in preparation and are looking forward to moving as many grapplers as possible through to the state competition in the Tacoma Dome in late February. — Cheryl Pruett is the mother of two Pirate wrestlers.

Registration gets under way for two spring sports Lacrosse The Vashon Lacrosse Club is gearing up for its 24th season with five competitive teams, including the (grades) 3/4 boys’ team, coached by Scott Rice, making its competitive debut. Additional youth competitive teams include 5/6 boys coached by Eric Hecht and 7/8 boys coached by Mark Paridon. The Valkyries, the high school girls’ team coached by Larry Dubois, will return to JV competition this year with a predominantly senior team. The Vultures, the high school boys’ team coached by Daniel Macca, will return to Div. II competition, anxious to regain the momentum of last season and their hard-won trip to the state semifinals. The club is also offering a grades 3/4/5 girls’ lacrosse fundamentals program coached by Karen Stendahl and an option for 6/7/8 girls to practice with the high school Valkyries, an opportunity to be mentored by some experienced lacrosse athletes. Registration is open now for a limited time. Visit

Baseball and softball Registration for Vashon Youth Baseball and Softball (VYBS) programs will be open for a limited time, Feb. 16 to March 16. All registrations must be done online at korrio. com. Limited scholarship assistance will be available. VYBS serves island youth ages 4 to 14. T-ball is a co-ed program for children ages 4 to 6. The Pinto League features machine-pitch baseball for girls and boys ages 7 and 8. Mustang and Bronco levels practice on island and
split their time playing in West Seattle on weekday evenings and on Vashon most Saturdays. The oldest age groups, Pony and girls U-14, play an extensive off-island schedule, also with home Saturday games. For girls, VYBS offers fast pitch teams (starting at age 8) that compete in the West Seattle League with Saturday games on Vashon. VYBS is currently taking applications for coaching positions at the T-ball and Pinto level. Contact Jennifer Bonaventura at jenbonaventura@gma i l. com or vashonyouthbaseball@gmail.com for more information. Teams will be drafted March 18, with practices beginning shortly after, and
games will begin in midApril. This year’s annual Opening Day extravaganza will be Saturday, April 25. Scott Hitchcock, president of VYBS, is pleased to report that the new indoor baseball facility located in the old Mukai fruit barreling plant is now up and running, and the group is working on fundraising to meet its half of a generous matching donation to complete the project. On the high school front, baseball coach Steve Hall is itching to get his team onto the field. The players have spent a lot of time working out during the off-season so when they take the field they will be ready to go on day one. A player to watch is senior Josh HruskaMyer, who looks to be the dominant pitching force in the Nisqually League this year. Head softball coach Jackie Merrill is going into her fourth season and will be building on the success the team had last year. A large group of experienced juniors and sophomores is positioned to get the team back to the playoffs this year. — Cheryl Pruett

bank, plant native trees along Judd Creek and maintain hiking trails at Camp Sealth, where they are also living for two months. Their full-time work will bring an estimated 3,500 hours of volunteer labor to local nonprofits and the Vashon Park District. “It’s a great deal for the nonprofits, and it’s a great deal and for the whole island,” said Jan Milligan, who has coordinated the group’s work through Vashon’s Rotary club. “The whole island will benefit.” The two-month service trip is somewhat of an experiment, said Milligan, Rotary’s community service chair. The former director of Camp Sealth, she saw the work that conservation corps volunteers have done at the sprawling camp over the years. “I started thinking that there are so many nonprofits and the park district here that could benefit from this,” she said. While conservation corps groups typically spend two months at a time in a single location — be it a park or a homeless shelter — Milligan and other Rotary members devised a plan where the Rotary club would sponsor a crew and send the volunteers to several places on Vashon. They scoped out more than a dozen possible projects, Milligan said, ultimately deciding on five that seemed most deserving and best fit NCCC’s mission. The club wasn’t sure if NCCC would go for their proposal, but the “moon and the stars all aligned” she said, and Rotary was approved.

going well so far. The team has opened up a trail, built a parking barrier and done significant clearing work at Lisabeula, a place she noted is one of Vashon’s most beautiful parks but is badly in need of maintenance. Staff at Sunrise Ridge, Camp Sealth and the fruit club’s orchard at the food bank are already preparing to put the crew to work in the coming weeks. At Camp Sealth, a group of nine other NCCC volunteers is doing work on the camp’s trails, beaches and buildings during the same period of time, meaning there are more AmeriCorp volunteers on the island than ever. That group was so happy to come to Vashon that some of them cried and jumped up and down when they learned of the Camp Sealth assignment, said Jackie Bender, a member of that crew. “It’s fantastic. We were all beaming, we were so happy,” she said. Dean said the land trust has worked with similar crews from the Washington Conservation Corps, which is also under the AmeriCorps umbrella, and the staff tries to make the experience educational for the volunteers. They have followed up later with crew members, he said, some of whom have gone on to do research, work in academia or do natural resource management. “Every year you help the next group of kids who are going to go on and take care of all the parks and preserves across the country,” he said. As for French, she agreed that the experience is educational — from living and working with a diverse group to simply performing sometimes monotonous tasks like raking. “Everyone is growing so much,” she said.

June West Schwarzbeck
June West Schwarzbeck passed away, January 3, 2015, just six months before her 100th birthday. She was born June 29, 1915, in Columbia, SC, and although she only lived in the South for her first 12 years, she never left it far behind. In 1927, just prior to the Great Depression, June’s mother, Marie Franklin West, with little money and no contacts, took June, her lifelong best friend and confidant, to New York City in search of a better life. June met her sweetheart, Charlie, a shy, handsome Brooklyn boy, and they married in 1940, during the demands of WWII. After moving with Marie to the midcentury promised land, Long Island, their family gradually grew to five with the births of their two children. They made the coastal village of Amityville their home where June became an accomplished contract bridge player, and she and Charlie enjoyed a busy social life. In her fifties, June accepted a position with TWA where she worked for 10 years, quickly earning management positions, providing herself and Charlie, along with always-adventurous Marie, the travel June had always craved, exploring Europe, as well as much of Africa, South America and Asia, before retiring to their oceanfront home in Juno Beach, Florida. Missing their children, who had long lived on the West Coast, June and Charlie moved to Vashon Island in 1989 where they delighted in their waterfront home on Sandy Shores. June hosted dozens of children’s class trips, beachside birthdays, and neighborhood Christmas parties, and at Vashon Country Club, played bridge and sat poolside with Charlie where they enjoyed family and friends. In 1996, June lost Charlie, her husband of 56 years who had always adored her. Still healthy, fun-loving, and determined, June continued to enjoy her Vashon life, feeding the seagulls, playing bridge, making trips to Seattle, and watching her five grandchildren grow and thrive. She often said, as she sat on her deck, delighting in the sea life, the Sound, and Mt. Rainer (“Granny’s mountain,” as her grandchildren call it) that she regretted each day she hadn’t lived on Vashon, she loved it so. June will always be deeply missed by her son, Charles Schwarzbeck and wife, Chandra (Seattle), grandchildren Sarah (Brooklyn, NY), Chuck (Los Angeles, CA), and Nicholas (Seattle), and, daughter, Devon Atkins (Vashon) and grandchildren Alexander (Washington, D.C.) and Liz (Vashon), and many others who enjoyed June’s enduring smile and quick wit, the sort of woman, at 40 or 95, who would laugh until she cried for the joy of it. In addition to her family, June loved and always lived with cats and sometimes said she hoped to be a cat in her next life. Please make any donations in her memory to VIPP: VIPP, P.O. 245, Vashon, WA 98070 or https://www.gifttool.com/donations/ Donate?ID=1229&VER=1&LNG=EN.

MEMORIAL CONTINUED FROM 1
bring herself to visit it. Soon after the cross’s appearance, Peterson, who didn’t know Byrd but lives across the highway from the memorial, began placing cut flowers there. She eventually started planting flowers beneath the cross and hauled her lawn mower across the highway regularly to keep the area around the cross from overgrowing. Every Christmas season, she and her husband put a holiday decoration on it. “I just couldn’t help thinking that someone needed to take care of Patrick,” Peterson said. “He was killed on the island, but he didn’t live here. ... He didn’t have anyone here.” Shortly before the accident, Peterson lost her sister to cancer. Her sister’s grave was in Oregon, so she couldn’t visit it often, something that she said fueled her desire to maintain Byrd’s cross. “She was a flower arranger, so it just kind of came together that I was going to do this, both for Patrick and to help me work through losing my sister,” she said. “It was like a substitute.” Peterson said she also felt that because the driver who caused the accident lived on Vashon, the memorial should serve as a reminder of what he’d done. “It was just so tragic, and it was an islander who caused it, so I thought we owed it to the family to never forget,” she said. That islander never did forget the events of that night, and also recently noticed that the cross disappeared. “It’s hard for me to talk about,” said Dan Hardwick, a local fisherman and the driver who hit Byrd’s van 16 years ago. “It
was a very bad time in my life. I didn’t deal with things well.” Hardwick was recently honored for his part in the heroic rescue of the crew of a capsized fishing vessel in Alaska in 2012. He was among five men to receive the prestigious Carnegie Hero award last December for the effort. But 16 years ago, Hardwick explained, he’d just lost his girlfriend to cancer after caring for her through the illness for over a year. He began drinking to deal with his grief. Hardwick was charged with vehicular homicide for the accident and spent almost three years in prison. He spoke sadly about the accident and the events surrounding it, and noted that while he made a point of not looking at the memorial every time he drove by, he was well aware of its presence and also of its recent disappearance. “It was a horrible accident. I haven’t had a drop to drink since,” he said. “There is nothing I can do to change what happened. ... There’s just nothing I can ever do.” Whether the family decided it was time to take the memorial down or something else happened, Peterson’s tenure as its caretaker has left its mark. Last Friday, as she raked leaves around some potted plants by the hole left by the cross, Peterson said that she’s asked around about what might have happened, but to no avail. While there is some debate over maintaining roadside memorials, she said she’s invested so much in Byrd’s that she may replace it herself. She also plans to look into getting an official sign installed by King County that would warn against driving under the influence. “It was so much a part of my routine for so long,” she said. “His name really became part of our family.”

A Shining Star on Vashon Island for 31 years! Available for Adoption Sweetness is just that. She loves to sit on a lap and be petted while she purrs away the hours. She was relinquished by a man who found her four years ago and took her in. She has lived with dogs but she is afraid of them. She prefers being indoors where she can curl up and luxuriate on a soft bed. Sweetness came to VIPP on 1/6/15. McBuff came to VIPP when his beloved owners moved to assisted living and they B could not take him along. McBuff, being the Scotsmen that he is, was not crazy about sharing his former home with his Irish bunk mate, Danny Boy. McBuff would like nothing better than to be the only cat in his new home. He is a gentle soul with humans though and a bit on the shy side. McBuff is looking for a quiet indoor only home with adults who will give him lots of love. McBuff came to VIPP on 12/6/14.
A VIPP Story We are the PROUD parents of Nick & Nora. We decided after 30 plus years of raising felines, we could no longer deal with the loss. It was horrific to have to say goodbye after all the years to our furry friends that warmed our hearts and Nick & Nora home. But then I saw the photo of Nick and Nora in the Beachcomber. They screamed for me to come pick them up. What was I to do? I called immediately and was kindy told that because of my devotion over the years to capturing and taming down feral felines and finding them all good homes...I would be able to adopt them immediately. Which I did! Let me just say, Nick and Nora are an addition to our family that was meant to be. They warm our hearts and home immensely. We feel so blessed. Just check out how content and happy they are!
