School bond, SARC levy failing Measures get 57 percent of vote but falling short of 60 percent ‘super majority’

Special election results

The majority of voters in Sequim cast ballots to approve both Sequim School District’s bond proposal and the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center levy, but both are short of the 60 percent required for approval.

School ballots falling short

Votes Approved 6,610 Rejected 4,947

In the first count of ballots, voters are rejecting the $49.5 million Sequim school construction bond, about 10 months after voters turned down a $154 million bond proposal. On Feb. 10, election results show that 6,691 voters approved the measure (57.1 percent), falling short of the 60 percent “super majority” required to pass. Sequim schools superintendent Kelly Shea said he’s still hopeful, noting that just 400 more yes votes would put the proposal over the top. Jim Stoffer, chair of Citizens for Sequim Schools, said, “It’s a little disappointing, but we know the count is still coming in. The work we did paid off (with better numbers than April of 2014), but we’re not ready to call it (over).” The 20-year bond would pay for land and the building of a new elementary school, add four classrooms, a gym and service kitchen at Greywolf Elementary School, add six science classrooms and band/choir rooms at Sequim High School and tear down an unused portion of the Sequim Community School. The bond also would have included a major renovation of the district’s base kitchen, funded renovations at Helen Haller Elementary School’s A

In recent weeks, school district officials and school advocates from the Citizens for Sequim Schools group have canvassed the community, talking to community groups, hosting informational meetings and waving familiar yellow signs at downtown Sequim intersections. “We definitely turned over every stone we could to get our message out there,” Shea said. “I always feel there are more people to talk to, especially when you read negative letters to the editor and realize none of these people have been to a presentation.” Mary Reader of Port Angeles, front left, and Kathy Schreiner, right, of Sequim, ready special election ballots from across Clallam County last week.

Voters rejected a levy for the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center on Tuesday night, with 6,610 voters or 57.1 percent approving the measure; a 60 percent “super majority” also was required to pass.

Without a strategic plan, we will close Dec. 31, 2016. We’ll need to look at what action we can take to handle this emergency.” SARC director Scott Deschenes said levy funds would have been used to replace infrastructure like a pool air handling unit, replace and repair equipment, and recover costs accrued over recent years. “It’s hard — you see all the old people there that rely on this place and the kids after school and I feel like we’ve let them down by not passing the levy,” Deschenes said. “It’s a nail in the coffin, but hopefully not the last. We’ll do everything we can in the next year to save this place. We’ll have to make some tough choices.” Read the full story online at www. sequimgazette.com.

More than a week after being diagnosed with the measles, a Port Angeles man in his 50s is in stable condition and recovering while in isolation at Olympic Medical Center in Port Angeles, health officials say.

The Washington State Public Health Lab confirmed his diagnosis last week but the measles source remains unknown. Dr. Tom Locke, Clallam County Health officer, said they’ve sent the man’s measles cultures to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to trace their origins to other known cases. Several dozen people who have been in contact with the man remain quarantined at their homes, Locke said, unless they’ve

City extends pot moratorium another six months Attorney believes Washington state to merge medical/recreational industries by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

The latest recreational marijuana sales moratorium renewal in the City of Sequim will be the last says City Attorney Craig Ritchie. Appearing before the Sequim City Council on Monday night, Ritchie said he’s confident the state Legislature is going to pass bills to combine sales of medical and recreational marijuana and determine a cut for cities in sales tax. “I do not expect to come back to you after this moratorium and ask to do another,” he said. “We’ll have enough information by the time this legislative session is over to make a final decision on how recreational and medical will (combine).” Sequim City councilors voted

6-1, with Genaveve Starr opposed, to extend the moratorium another six months. It was first adopted in Feb. 24, 2014, and renewed in August 2014. Previously, councilors expressed an interest in waiting for the Legislature to pass a bill to split sales tax with cities and to help pay for mandated law enforcement policies in regulating marijuana businesses. For the latest moratorium, Councilor Laura Dubois said she wants to know MILLER what is in the final bill before acting while Councilor Ted Miller said the decision for a moratorium was “the least of evils at the present time.” “Let’s hope the Legislature gets

their act together,” he said. But a few Sequim businessmen continue to testify to city councilors that the moratorium should be lifted now. David Halpern, who won the city’s lottery for its lone recreational store from the Washington State Liquor HALPERN Control Board, said he supports the city wanting a split of the excise tax but waiting for it continues to allow unregulated marijuana being sold. He said Sequim allows four tobacco-exclusive stores to operate with several others selling it and alcohol exclusively, which he finds more dangerous than marijuana. “No one has died from an overdose of marijuana, or at least none that I can find,” he said. Halpern said he’s also partnered with a bank to accept credit cards

to eliminate concerns of crime for being cash-only. The move to act now, Halpern said, is so the city can receive tax dollars right away. Both he and Tom Ash, owner of Tropic Grow LLC, Sequim’s first approved recreational marijuana producer, said they think recreational and medical marijuana will be combined, too. The problem, Ash says, is “there’s huge lead time to implementing and getting in place operations.” “You have a gentleman (Halpern) who has chosen to stay here, stand here and pay rent and be ready for that … In order to share in that money from beginning to end, you need to have an operational unit in town when it’s passed,” Ash said. Halpern said the city wouldn’t want to be in a position to miss out on funds. “Any person in business would

Trestle

From page A-1 on either side of the bridge and crews from Jamestown Excavating assessed the damage sustained by the trestle, but there’s no definite timeline as to when the bridge will be passable again. Clallam County engineer Ross Tyler, who accompanied those assessing the damage, “suspects they (Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe officials) would like to get the bridge open by June or July when trail use increases.” Draft plans for both shortand long-term repairs are under way, but Powell Jones, Dungeness River Audubon Center director, said until the water recedes officials won’t be able to get a full understanding of the damage. Depending on funding, Jones hopes the damage may create an opportunity to redesign a structure or make repairs that would be conducive to the river and allow it to flow as freely as possible. However, the primary objective is to “secure what’s left,” he said. Beyond simply reducing damage and safety, there’s an environmental health

incentive to secure what’s remaining given some the supporting logs at risk of washing away are creosote-treated. Additionally, because the Dungeness River is a habitat for species listed as threatened under the federal Endangered Species Act, including Puget Sound chinook, Hood Canal chum, winter steelhead and bull trout, Dave Lasorsa, environmental coordinator with Clallam County Public Works, said

permits required to work within the water can be more complex and timely to get. But, from a repair perspective, older railroad trestles are a simple design, thus once through the permitting process the actual repairs are fairly straightforward, Tyler explained. “It’s repairable,” he said. “This is not something that hasn’t happened before.” Until the bridge is reopened, Olympic Discovery

rather choose to be ahead than behind,” he said. If the moratorium were lifted, a city ordinance would not allow production or processing but retail would be allowed in some stretches along Washington Street, including at Halpern’s business Emanon Systems, Inc., at 755 W. Washington St., Suite C. The two bills pending in the Senate pertaining to marijuana are SB 5052, establishing the cannabis patient protection act with a medical marijuana database while bridging recreational and medical marijuana and limiting the number of household medical plants, and SB 5417 redistributes taxes from marijuana sales to other jurisdictions and modifies the buffer for more possible locations.

we’ll (Peninsula Trails Coalition officials) help post signs or get the word out for users,” Bohman said. Although, it’s a “priority” to get the Olympic Discovery Trail open, right now officials are “just trying to figure out how to fund it and how to fix it,” Jones said. Because the park is privately owned, federal and/or state financial support may be sought, but is not a given, Jones explained. The property of the park belongs to the Jamestown S’Klallam, but the tribe and those with the Dungeness River Audubon Center, Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society and the National Audubon Society all partner to maintain the park. To help raise funds for trestle repair, contact staff at the Dungeness River Audubon Center, at 681-4076, or visit the website dungenessrivercenter.org.

Trail users can use two alternative routes, Jeff Bohman, president of the Peninsula Trails Coalition, said. Although county and city officials have yet to agree on the preferred alternate route, Bohman said the favored route seems to be the southern route along U.S. Highway 101 versus the northern alternative along Old Olympic Reach Alana Linderoth at Highway. “Once there is a decision alinderoth@sequimgazette. made on the preferred route com.

Sequim Radio Shack to remain open Corporation files for bankruptcy, but local franchise owner says shipping times is about only impact by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Sequim’s Radio Shack, 680 W. Washington St. Suite B106, will remain largely unaffected following the news of its parent company filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Feb. 5, its owner says. Dave Lyle, who has owned the Sequim franchise store for 26 years, said everyone who came through the business’ door on Friday asked about the store’s status. “I want to assure people their locally owned Radio Shack is going nowhere,” Lyle said. “The locally owned franchise is virtually unaffected. The name

is still the same. This store is not going away and continues to have the same ownership.” National media reports indicate the corporation is slated to sell 1,500 to 2,400 of its more than 4,000 U.S. stores to Standard General in cooperation with Sprint to operate kiosks out of most of those locations. Radio Shack’s site lists 1,784 locations tentatively slated for closure. In Washington, 25 stores may close, with Silverdale’s location the closest to Sequim. Lyle said the only impact he knows of to Sequim’s Radio Shack is that shipping times are going to be a little slower for new

products and orders. “Now it’s about three days out of California, but then it’ll be about five days out of Texas,” Lyle said. Reports also state Standard General will close Radio Shack’s remaining companyowned stores. Sequim’s branch, however, falls under one of its 1,000 dealer-owned franchises. In March 2014, Radio Shack closed more than 1,100 lower-performing stores following continued revenue declines. Radio Shack was founded in 1921.

Local measles exposure

From page A-1 previously been immunized for the measles or had the measles before 1957. He said tests should be in by the end of the week to determine if those people in quarantine are immune. People quarantined are not circulating in the community, Locke said, and that a blood test should reveal those who are safe to return to work. “If we find they are not immune, then they’ll be in quarantine for 21 days past exposure,” he said. “The reason is that not only can they get measles, but they can spread it before they even feel sick with it.” Measles, considered one of the most contagious viral diseases, is spread in the air and over 90 percent of susceptible individuals will become infected if exposed. Locke said he does not know if the Port Angeles man was immunized but if he was, then it means he’s one of the few who remain susceptible. “It’s true there are people who are immunized and the vaccine doesn’t work,” he said. “It’s about 95 percent accurate. Children get two vaccinations but the second isn’t a booster. If you give a a second dose, it goes up to 99 percent. Measles are so contagious that the difference between 95 and 99 is important.”

With the Olympic Peninsula’s only-known case of the measles in isolation in Port Angeles, health officials traced where the man traveled to while contagious in Clallam County and King County from Jan. 26-30. Officials warn that anyone who was in one of the following locations during these times may have been exposed to measles: Clallam County Tuesday, Jan. 27 • 3:30-5:45 p.m. at Wendy’s, 1830 E. First St., Port Angeles • 4:45-6:55 p.m. at Mt. Pleasant IGS & Texaco Gas Station, 3010 E.

the Port Angeles man’s case. “Every day that passes without a secondary case is good,” he said. “No news is good news. We’re focused on getting people vaccinated.” The health department reports locals born before 1957 are presumed to be immune to measles but those born in 1957 or after the vaccination was created should have at least one dose. High-risk individuals like chilCritical period dren, adolescents and people with Locke said they haven’t seen any occupational or travel exposure risk secondary measles cases traced to are recommended to have at least

two doses of the vaccine. Children typically receive the vaccine at 12 months-15 months for the first dose, Locke said, and the second between ages 4-5. “No. 1, people shouldn’t feel any personal sense of threat,” Locke said. “We are in a state of active surveillance. Medical providers are looking carefully for people with rashes. We probably have a single case and there’s no reason to believe that the people we’ve identified (for quarantine) are at risk.”

The construction of a long anticipated fish ladder on Canyon Creek will expose about two miles of designated “Essential Fish Habitat” ideal for four species of Pacific salmon, including Puget Sound chinook salmon, a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. The suitable fish habitat found within the Dungeness River’s second largest tributary has been unreachable by both resident and anadromous fish since the construction of Canyon Creek dam in 1903. More than 100 years later, however, the dam soon is expected to meet modern fish passage standards. Moving the proposed project along, on Dec. 23 Clallam County commissioners approved an agreement with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials to allow for the construction of the fish ladder. County approval was required because the project is located beneath the county-owned bridge on Fish Hatchery Road at about Dungeness River mile 10.8. “We are very excited to move forward on this project,” Rob Allan, WDFW operations and hatchery reform manager for the Olympic Peninsula, said. Although the promising habitat was identified in 1993, it wasn’t until 2012 that WDFW officials were able to allocate funds from the Jobs Now bill for the approximate-

ly $2 million project to update the existing intake. Though the project has been in motion since the mid-1990s, renovating the intake on Canyon Creek became more of a priority for WDFW officials in 2002 after a “hatchery scientific review group” recommended the intake be removed, Allan said. Despite blocking fish from potential habitat throughout last century, the dam has and will continue to be active in order to divert supplemental water to WDFW’s Dungeness River Fish Hatchery, which has been operational since 1902 and rebuilt at its current location in 1945, Scott Williams, the Fish Hatchery Specialist 4 at Dungeness River Fish Hatchery, said. The hatchery rears a number

of species including Dungeness coho, Dungeness spring chinook, winter steelhead and every other year pink salmon. To bring the diversion dam to fish passage standards, in addition to the construction of the fish ladder, state officials also will replace the intake and screening, repair the downstream apron, provide a plunge pool and entrance pools, with the addition of downstream weirs and replace about 120 feet of the existing water supply pipeline. From the various upgrades to the site on Canyon Creek, Allan expects the “biggest impact to the hatchery and the resource is it will open up access to additional spawning and habitat for fish that haven’t been available for decades.” Though the project area

Deputy mayor’s blood-alcohol at 0.26 in DUI arrest Councilman Smith seeks deferred prosecution, continues treatment Sequim Gazette staff Washington State Patrol reports that results from a blood-alcohol test for Sequim deputy mayor Dennis Smith came to 0.26, more than three times the legal limit, following a Dec. 14 fender bender and DUI arrest. Smith, 68, confirmed the report and currently is seeking deferred prosecution with weekly court appearances in Clallam County District Court. He also is voluntarily attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, receiving outpatient treatment for two years and he installed an ignition interlock in his vehicle.

“I admit it was a mistake to do,” Smith said. “It’s kind of an emotional time for me. It’s (drinking) been a problem for several years. I thought I had it licked.” On Dec. 14, SMITH Smith said he wa s driving home by himself from a family get-together in Centralia before he rear-ended a sport utility vehicle in front of him at the SequimDungeness Way and Port Williams Road roundabout. Smith and the other driver were uninjured in the collision and declined

medical attention. Sequim Police officer Stephanie Benes reported to the scene and detected the odor of intoxicants and arrested Smith for driving under the influence. Smith was taken to the Sequim Police Department where he was booked through the Washington State Patrol. Sequim Police Chief Bill Dickinson previously said Sequim Police could have processed the case but they didn’t want there to be any appearance of a conflict of interest. A Wa sh in g ton St ate Patrol trooper took Smith to Olympic Medical Center for a blood draw to test his blood-alcohol level and booked him into Clallam County Jail later that night. He was released

DCD director recommends full-time code enforcement officer for Clallam County by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Making one of her first changes within the county’s Department of Community Development, newly elected DCD Director Mary Ellen Winborn pitched to the county commissioners her recommendation to move the county’s code enforcement officer from the sheriff’s office to the DCD. Additionally, Winborn recommended the two part-time code enforcement officer positions be consolidated into one full-time position. Although the county budget allows for two part-time positions, for months only one of those positions has been filled and that officer is moving in March. “Some of the problems are very complex and need a more comprehensive approach and if we have a full-time officer, we can actually take a proactive approach,” Winborn said. “Voluntary compliance is the goal.” Although the code enforcement field

funds to support Winborn’s recommendation, but would need to secure more permanent funds in the future. Commissioner Mike Chapman expressed concern with a possible lack of authority if the position is moved to the DCD, but Sheriff Bill Benedict admits the program has been “ineffective and there have been complaints.” “There’s no arguing between me and Mary Ellen and and we’ll continue to work together,” he said. To maintain a certain level of authority, Winborn agreed to hire someone with law enforcement experience and have Benedict help with the interview and hiring process. Historically, code enforcement was a DCD program, but four years ago the position was moved to the sheriff’s office. In addition to at least one full-time officer, the program once had a strong group of volunteers to help. After the department switch, the volunteers dispersed, but Winborn seeks to revive the community involvement. “If I was going to run for this office, I’d need to know I could make a positive impact to this community,” Winborn said. “We have to show people coming to this area that we care about this place.”

officer can get quick results via issuing citations, Winborn said that isn’t often a longterm solution to the problem, whether it be septic issues, a surplus of junk vehicles or overall degradation of a neighborhood. “The whole idea is to enforce, but also get neighborhoods involved,” Winborn said. “Usually where there’s one problem there are more and we need to be able to look at the core of the problem.” The position would WINBORN equate to a $47,845 salary, including benefits. Utilizing a grant from Washington State Department of Ecology through the county’s Environmental Health Services, Winborn said the position falls about $11,000 short. After further discussion at the commissioners’ work session Feb. 2, Reach Alana Linderoth at alinderoth@ Commissioner Jim McEntire said that county officials could find one-time sequimgazette.com.

Monday morning. Smith voluntarily gave a breathalyzer which came up 0.28, State Patrol reports. A half-bottle of vodka also was found in his sport utility vehicle. Smith said the incident is a one-time thing. “I’m really, really sorry,” he said. “I’m thankful everyday no one was seriously hurt.” City Attorney Craig Ritchie said city council bylaws allow Smith to continue serving on the council and Smith said he plans to continue serving on the city council. Smith, who retired from the U.S. Air Force, was appointed to the Sequim City Council on Oct. 8, 2012, and was elected to his position in 2013.

Sequim Gazette

In the winter of 1945, across the country, including the Olympic Peninsula, food, sugar, clothes and shoes, coffee, gas, fuel oil and tires were rationed due to World War II. Amid the deprivations, however, there was something the 10,000 residents of Port Angeles could get excited about — their own community radio station. On Feb. 3, 1945, at 6:30 a.m. KONP 1450 AM began its first broadcast day with a live “piano and chatter program” with Al Smith of CJVI in Victoria and music provided by the Port Angeles Concert Orchestra. The second day was devoted to congratulations from other Northwest stations and the airing of church services. At 250 watts, the amount allowable under its license, KONP wasn’t a beacon in the Northwest, but a source of civic pride nonetheless. Onair time was 5:30 a.m.-11 p.m. “Charles Webster, owner of the Port Angeles Evening News, pursued getting a license in the 1930s and it was a big deal,” said Todd Ortloff, who has co-owned the station with Brown M. Maloney since 2002. “It took a lot of time

because licensing new radio stations was held up during World War II.” Ortloff said the call letters were partly federally regulated — all stations west of the Mississippi River had to start with a “K” — and partly a salute by Webster to Olympic National Park, which had been designated as a national park in 1938 by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. “It was a great moniker to hang on but KONP was never associated with the park,” Ortloff said. Having worked in several capacities at the station since the 1990s, the 47-year-old Ortloff, now general manager, chats easily about the station’s history. “The station was next door to where the Peninsula Daily

Newsradio KONP 1450 AM/101.7 FM Street address: 721 E. First St., Port Angeles Phone: 457-1450 On the web: www.konp.com News is, before it was built, and the building was on piers next to tide flats. From 1945 into the 1960s, the antenna was a 180-foot Douglas-fir with wires running the length of it. We broadcast from the original building until 2008 and from the metal lattice antenna until 2012, which was dismantled in 2013. Now our antenna is on Melody Lane, up Golf Course Road,” Ortloff said. “In the old days, there were programs like remotes from Bernie’s Restaurant and Lounge and over the organist, listeners would hear banter back and forth between the customers. The format was all over the place: chatter programs, kitchen chatter, interviews with visitors coming off the ferry and always the music of the day,” Ortloff said. “A lot of kitschy things!” The 1940s were the Big Band/Swing era and in the 1950s-1960s, KONP played the Top 40s. Ortloff said there was a tremendously popular program called “Tunes for Teens” that high school students helped produce. In 1951, when Scooter Chapman was a junior at Roosevelt High School, he began a 64-year affiliation with KONP which continues to this day. At 80, he’s been the station’s sports director since 1961. “He’s still going strong and

he’s probably the closest thing we have to a celebrity,” Ortloff said. In the mid-1980s, the station increased its power to 1,000 watts, where it remains today. The 1990s brought several modernizing changes — being the first in the state to use a computer-based on-air system for commercials instead of tapes in 1991 and changing its on-air moniker to “Newsradio 1450 KONP” and format to an all news and talk format. In 2008, KONP added an FM translator, now airing around the clock on 101.7 FM. “Through the years, we’ve always been a community station. Local news is what we’re about, local sports is what we’re about,” Ortloff said. “It’s amazing how important radio is to people. They want to know what’s going on. After all these years, we’re still in the community’s heart. That’s why I love radio. Even with all the technology — the entire station is interfaced with computers for satellite feeds and audio sources — it still has charm to it.” Ortloff said KONP will celebrate its 70th year by having several listener-type contests throughout 2015 and stressed he appreciates the station’s family like environment. “Onward and upward to the next 70 years,” Ortloff enthused. “We’re always looking for ways to serve the community and better the business every day.” Visit the station’s website at www.konp.com for the full breadth of its services in central and eastern Clallam County.

EDC hands out annual awards At a meeting of the Clallam Economic Development Council members on Jan. 30, First Federal was recognized as the EDC’s Business of the Year and county commissioner Jim McEntire was recognized as the EDC’s Individual of the Year. Both received the EDC Olympic Leader Award. The awards were presented by Dr. Luke Robins, president of Peninsula College, and by EDC Executive Director Bill Greenwood. Robins announced the establishment, with the EDC and the Peninsula College Foundation, of two new student scholarships at Peninsula College, to be named each year in honor of the EDC Olympic Award winners. Accepting for First Federal was Larry Hueth, president and CEO. Hueth successfully rebuilt the management team at the bank, led its conversion to a stock form of HUETH ownership and took the steps to ensure the future strength of the county’s most important financial institution. McEntire received the award for his insistent drive and dedication to making the EDC a more effective organization. He helped to design and craft the EDC’s new Strategic Plan. His was a forceful voice in reducing McENTIRE the size of the EDC board, aiming to make it more rational and nimble. He placed his reputation on the line by supporting major assistance from the Opportunity Fund to place the EDC on solid financial footing to be adequately staffed to do its job.

Hygiene volunteers needed to open Port Angeles center

FAITH NEWS Speaking of ‘limitless love’ The speaker at the Olympic Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 73 Howe Road, Sequim, at 10:30 a.m. will be the Rev. Julia McKenna Johnson, on “Limitless Love: a journey through the world of lyrics of love songs.” All are invited and child care will be provided. Johnson is an inter-denominational minister, ordained almost 29 years ago.

World Day of Prayer Dungeness Valley Lutheran Church, 925 N. Sequim Ave., Sequim, will host the local World Day of Prayer from noon-1 p.m. Friday, March 6. Across the globe, people in more than 170 countries will say a prayer written by women of the Bahamas based on a question Jesus asked his disciples after washing their feet, “Do you understand what I have done for you?” All are invited to participate.

Volunteers are needed to keep the Hygiene Center at 516 E. First St., Port Angeles, open weekday and Sunday mornings, according to Kim Leach, Serenity House of Clallam County executive director. “The Hygiene Center exists to give people who are homeless an opportunity to shower or do a load of laundry,” Leach said. “They can get a change of clean clothes, too, if needed. Most of the people who use it are either looking for work or going to work, so being able to clean up is very important to them.” According to Serenity House sources, an aver-

age of 20 people use the center each morning it is open. Most users are adults who sleep at the nearby Street Outreach Shelter, 505 E. Second St., which is open each night from 9 p.m.-6 a.m. Other people who lack access to showers, including families with children, such as those who may be sleeping in cars or tents, also are welcome to use the Hygiene Center. “During last winter’s long periods of daytime freezing temperatures, the site also functioned as a warming station,” Leach said. “Fortunately, this winter’s cold snaps have been fairly brief, because we can only open if we have

volunteers available.” For information about volunteering, call services supervisor David Garner at 360-504-5657 or e-mail davidgsas@yahoo.com. Serenity House is a 501(c)3 nonprofit dedicated to preventing and ending homelessness for people in Clallam County. Donations to help support services can be mailed to Serenity House, P.O.

OMCF to host 8th ‘Red, Set, Go!’ Heart luncheon The Olympic Medical Center Foundation will present the eighth annual Red, Set, Go! Heart luncheon presented by the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe at 11:30 a.m. Friday, Feb. 27, at the Vern Burton Community Center in Port Angeles. Persons interested in sponsoring or attending the event can contact the foundation office at 417-7144. Individual tickets are $50. “We encourage everyone to attend this wonderful event,” said President Karen Rogers. “We have sold a lot of sponsorships for the event, and therefore, 100 percent of all money raised at the luncheon will go toward local cardiac service care,” she said.

awareness about the critical issue of heart health for women on the Olympic Peninsula. The campaign was so successful that the foundation has committed to hosting an annual event. The educational lunch promotes that the key to eradicating this disease is education. “The purpose of our event is to inspire women to become more educated to improve their heart health,” Rogers said. “Many women are surprised to learn that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women,” Proceeds from this year’s event will go toward the purchase of cardiac exercise equipment at OMC.

Innovative program to improve diagnosis Swedish has established an Advanced Heart Failure Program to meet the needs of the growing number of patients diagnosed with heart failure, a serious diagnosis which kills four people a day in King Coun-

ty alone, affecting nearly 5 million people in the U.S. These patients require comprehensive management with a heart failure cardiologist along with a heart failure program versed in the most up-todate treatment options and technologies available. The program is able to provide additional services to patients, including pharmacy, social work, palliative care, genetic screening and rehab medicine. Program specialists have extensive experience in treating heart failure as well as the multiple comorbidities usually found in an heart failure patient.

Patricia Marie (Woolbert) Hovis March 24, 1955 ~ January 18, 2015

On Sunday, January 18, 2015 Patricia Marie (Woolbert) Hovis passed from this world into the next. She was surrounded by family and her best friends. Her release was painless and quick. She is in a better place. She was an incredible woman, a wonderful wife, mother, grandma, sister, aunt, and friend. The best! Pat was an artist and her canvas was life. She painted it to the extreme limits of the visible spectrum. She made friends easily and forever. She lived in Washington all her life. She grew up in the Seattle neighborhoods of Wallingford, moved to Ballard, and then to Sequim. Everywhere she went became a richer place. Taken by a rare lung disease, she fought a long and hard battle to live life as fully as she could. She received a double lung transplant in July of 2014. After a brief recovery and rehabilitation she made it back home for a few fantastic months. Rejection of the lungs was too strong even for Pat to overcome. She was an inspiration to all as she fought to live. Her motto was, “hope and fear can not occupy the same place at the same time; invite one to stay”. She lived in hope everyday of her life. We will sorely miss her and never forget her. She was well loved. Pat is survived by her husband Mike; her two sons Zack Hovis and Erik (Marcie) Winkler; and grandsons Greyson and Owen. There will be a memorial celebration at the Gardiner Community Center Saturday, March 28, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. Bring your laughter and best memories!

Unreal numbers come with climate control fees

Hello, Clallam County residents! Do you have any idea of the absurd legislation our representatives, (Steve) Tharinger and (Kevin) Van De Wege are sponsoring in the Legislature? I’m referring the House Bill 1314. Here is some of Section 1: “Sec. 1. INTENT AND FINDINGS. (1) The Legislature finds that climate change is harming the state and that without substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions the harm to the state will be greatly increased. While Washington’s emissions are only a small part of the global emissions of greenhouse gases, the state must act to reduce its own emissions while providing leadership and a model for action by other jurisdictions to address their own emissions.” “No biggie” you might say … that was my reaction until I received an e-mail from the State Office of Financial Management, which estimates the costs of this idiocy. Ten-year projection: Fiscal Auction allowance Greenhouse gas Total Year receipts reporting fee 2017 $935,238,101 $1,460,740 $936,698,841 2018 $963,262,832 $1,176,416 $964,439,248 2019 $989,912,515 $927,134 $990,839,649 2020 $1,015,187,152 $894,229 $1,016,081,381 2021 $1,086,894,183 $891,317 $1,087,785,500 2022 $1,202,081,526 $891,317 $1,202,972,843 2023 $1,312,685,379 $891,317 $1,313,576,696 2024 $1,418,705,743 $891,317 $1,419,597,060 2025 $1,520,142,618 $891,317 $1,521,033,935 Total: $10,444,110,049 $8,915,104 $10,453,025,153 The amounts are shown as receipts, but do you really think the employers/businesses in the state will not pass this onto us? WOW! Staggering amounts … something to remember for the next election, eh? Mark D. Witte Sequim

The Henninger deadline for compliance with this new rule is Feb. 27. It makes little sense to require this of foster families when others involved in the child’s life are exempt, including but not limited to biological families, health care workers, visit supervisors/transporters, daycare providers, social workers and the foster children themselves! Additionally, bio parents have the ability to refuse the shot … or any vaccinations for that matter … for their child residing in foster care, but foster parents do not have that same option for their own children. As a nurse with a history of caring for critically ill infants and a wife married to a health care professional, our skill set is perfect for caring for medically fragile infants and toddlers. We will no longer be able to provide this service at the renewal of our foster license when the state rules we are “non-compliant” because we won’t vaccinate every member of our family against the flu each year. The state will then force against our wishes an amendment of our license to care only for children older than 24 months. The vaccine itself has risks and is no guarantee that one will not come down with influenza. It’s a guessing game annually to try to figure out which strains of the influenza virus will be most prevalent against which to craft a vaccine. This year, clearly, that attempt to come up with the right one was a failure since the vaccine is only 23 percent effective.

By the numbers The decision to implement this WAC will result in the loss of qualified and passionate foster families who will either quit fostering altogether or raise their age limit of dependent children accepted rather than submit to the government mandate that they vaccinate their entire families against their will and better judgment. It’s already happening. In Yakima County where there are 490 foster homes, 7 percent of them already have opted to adjust their license to foster children over age 2 rather than get the vaccination. Who then will care for these young children? Indications are that placement agencies already are scrambling to find homes for very young children entering foster care. Currently there are 4,800 foster families who care for some 8,500 children in our state, including about 1,000 younger than age 2. This WAC also may mean that sibling groups in foster care could be split up if one of them is under 2 years of

Convert Washington’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site to a warfare training zone? Rep. Derek Kilmer, holding Town Hall meetings to address public concerns about the Navy’s plans, didn’t mention that they involve Olympic National Park, the state’s only UNESCO World Heritage Site and International Biosphere Reserve. Phuong Le’s story (“Navy wants to deploy more sonar-emitting buoys,” A ssociated Press, Jan. 25) ignored the fact that much of the area the Navy wants for warfare training Guest includes a National Opinion Marine Sanctuary. It quotes John Mosher, Northwest environmen- Barbara Solomon tal manager for the U.S. Pacific Fleet, saying, “There’s no safety issue for the public, wildlife or the environment,” flying in the face of substantive scientific evidence to the contrary. UNESCO standards identify Olympic National Park, as with its other sites, as an “irreplaceable source of life and inspiration” and consider it “to be of outstanding value to humanity.” Its role to protect and preserve such “natural heritage” is embodied in an international treaty. The concept of World Heritage Sites is that they “belong to all the peoples of the world, irrespective of the territory on which they are located.” To provide some context, in South England, the Jurassic Coast, that country’s only World Heritage Site, is being threatened by a large energy corporation that is attempting to construct the world’s largest wind farm on that site. UNESCO has stepped in to pressure their government to halt these plans, saying the World Heritage Site status will be removed. The issue on the English Coast is preserving the view. In western Washington, threats include view-obstructing towers emitting electromagnetic radiation in the midst of pristine nature; horrific noise pollution; and staggeringly complex potential problems for every aspect of delicate ecosystems on land, in the sea and in the air. The Navy also wants to fly “Growler” fighter jets, probably the loudest on earth, along migratory bird flyways. What possible rationale exists even to consider, let alone support, allowing the Navy to override the legacy of all the peoples of the world? Consider the well-known case of the spotted owl, one of several endangered species that make their homes in Olympic National Park. In 1990, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service declared the northern spotted owl a threatened species. Therefore, these owls are

protected under the Endangered Species Act signed into law in 1973. These endangered owls are an indicator species that survive in their last stronghold in the Hoh Rain Forest BECAUSE IT’S QUIET. They are extremely sensitive to any noise, let alone the roars and sonic booms from squadrons of fighter jets. The protected owls surely would be driven to extinction, experiencing, per scientific prediction, an agonizing death in the process. More and more is being learned and revealed about the possible effects of exposure to electromagnetic radiation — and we do know that the devices used for war are not created with health in mind. Overflying jets can activate sonobouys, deploy depth charges and make other assaults on all the creatures of the Olympic Coast Marine Sanctuary. Sonar ensures the demise of hosts of undersea creatures, including the endangered leatherback turtles, our state’s iconic (and endangered) orcas, and other threatened species that depend on delicate, complex hearing systems to hunt, communicate and navigate. The brain-exploding sounds from sonar, mines and underwater explosions can travel for hundreds of miles without losing their destructive strength. In an unprecedented action, the National Park Service has declared the military’s intent to be contrary to its mission and harmful to the environment and the economy of the region. All government agencies must follow the Endangered Species Act, right up to the President, who is also the Commander in Chief of the Navy. There is no way of significantly “mitigating” the damage this will cause, despite Rep. Kilmer’s attempts to convince his audiences that such measures would make everything fine. Requiring a minimum flight elevation of 10,000 feet — whether above ground level or above sea level — would not preserve the “soundscape” or the “viewscape” of Olympic National Park. The military has other bases and areas for their operations that have been used successfully for their training exercises; expanding their operations in western Washington jeopardizes tourism and undermines property values that cripple faltering, not-yet recovered local economies. Count us among the many Olympic Peninsula residents who believe that there is a moral imperative to stop this frightening plan, act as responsible stewards and protect this area’s irreplaceable legacy for the Earth and all her people.

age and placed in a foster home which is not flu vaccine-compliant. Currently, 24 percent of kids entering care are under 2; if you add their siblings to that, you are approaching 50 percent of foster children who are directly affected by this WAC. They will be separated for lack of bed spaces for the littlest ones. Additional reasons why I am opposed to this mandate: It is not enforceable at all times of the year; there is NO other state that requires this kind of vaccination of foster families; it demonstrates the devaluation of foster parents in this state; it is a waste of child welfare resources to use time, staff and funds to determine who is and isn’t complying … resources that would be much better spent on foster parent recruitment,

retention and appreciation. This new WAC is an unjust and intrusive government mandate to require that every member of a foster family be vaccinated annually against the flu. This WAC was passed without input from those of us “serving in the trenches,” providing homes and love to children who have experienced trauma and come to us with multiple behavioral issues. This WAC is an additional and burdensome hoop to jump through in order to become licensed foster parents in Washington, as arduous enough process as it is!

They guessed right! The winners have been announced for the competition held last fall, asking residents to predict when Bell Creek would begin flowing for the season through the City of Sequim and into the ponds at Carrie Blake Park. Tobey Clark was closest in the adult category and predicted a Dec. 12 start and a group of third-graders from Helen Haller Elementary were closest in the CLARK children’s category with Dec. 15 prediction. Dec. 9 was the actual date. Clark received a copper fish wall hanging dubbed the “Bellweather” award, created and donated by City of Sequim utilities manager Pete Tjemsland. The third-graders were awarded tours of the City’s Water Reclamation Facility and Reuse Park for their winning entries. Submitted photo

Music Live with Lunch goes Chopin Sequim Gazette staff

Chopin takes center stage for St. Luke’s Episcopal Church’s latest Music Live with Lunch. Pianist Gwendolyn Moore will play only pieces by Frédéric Chopin including “Ocean” Étude in C Minor, Opus 25, #11,” “Waltz in G-flat Major, Opus 70, #1” and more. The program begins at noon, Tuesday, Feb. 17, in the church, 525 N. Fifth Ave., followed by a hot lunch at 12:30 p.m. Moore will speak before and after she plays and she has been playing the piano for most of her 81½ years. The Californian-born musician studied music since sixth grade and transferred to UCLA to work with Lucas Foss, a charismatic teacher, composer and conductor, and studied with him until, after three years of graduate school. Moore later turned to her secondary interest in writing and joined the computer industry for more than 20 years, leading to her last job for the CIA’s Office of Research and Development creating the hardware and software for a special purpose computer. She began playing piano again while working at IBM, first with a piano partner in Los Angeles, and later playing solo repertoire. From 1965-1983, Moore said she was coached by one of the finest teachers in the world, Aube Tzerko. In 1984, she moved to Marrowstone Island to pursue her music and her writing and has performed in venues from Seattle to Silverdale to Port Angeles. She primarily hosts Coffee Concerts, founded in 1991, in her home and more recently in Port Townsend. For 20 years she played two concerts a week and since 1998 has been joined by piano partner Barbara Hinchliff. Both Moore and Hinchliff are in their 80s but continue to play two concerts a month. However in the summer plan they for a concert every other week on a Sunday/Tuesday. Music Live with Lunch was started 25 years ago by Lou and Bill Yandell as an outreach program to the community. It continues through May on the third Tuesday of the month. Tickets may be purchased in advance from the church office 9 a.m.-noon Monday-Thursday or at the door.

Dungeness Refuge strikes balance between protection and recreation by JOHN MAXWELL For the Sequim Gazette

Editor’s note: This is the second in a monthly series about the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge, past and present. — MD At Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge on a sunny day you can’t beat the view: a 5.5 mile-long, waveswept sand spit punctuated by the lighthouse at its end, with Mount Baker in the distance. In the winter you can watch storm waves breaking against the

on their spring and fall migrations, depending on the bay and its eelgrass beds for protection and refueling on their long flights. Other birds like oystercatchers nest here in the summer, raising their young in the shelter of the spit and Dungeness Bay. Still others like the brant winter here. They depend on the eelgrass beds in the shallows for their main winter food supply. Without the eelgrass beds and the protection of the spit and its driftwood, all these birds would have to find another place to call home.

spit and sometimes over it. Any time of the year the spit is beautiful, but it is also fragile. Almost every winter a storm will breach the spit, temporarily placing the lighthouse on an island until the spit repairs itself. If it were not for the constantly eroding bluffs to the west which supply the building material, the spit might disappear completely over time — beautiful but fragile. The refuge hosts many different species of birds and other wildlife. They too are beautiful and fragile. Thousands of birds stop over here

RT+ auditions set for Sequim, P.A. O

Group preps ‘Cupcake Conspiracy’ for March performances Sequim Gazette staff

Heatherton Gallery is turning a year old in the Landing Mall at 115 E. Railroad Ave, Suite 105, Port Angeles, this Friday (Feb. 13). Owner Sky Heatherton, a Sequim-area resident and retired registered nurse, said since opening it’s grown to 60 artists with up to seven pieces each. About half of the artists, she said, are from Sequim. To commemorate, the gallery hosts an anniversary party from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 13, with music and food. “It’s 3,2000 square feet and it’s packed with stuff,” Heatherton said. For more information, visit facebook.com/pages/Heatherton-Gallery. Submitted photo

Like a band of troubadours from merry olde England in years gone by, Readers Theatre Plus (RT+) is back after a brief hiatus. In March, RT+ will produce a comedy-farce, “The Cupcake Conspiracy.” Auditions will be held starting next week, both in Sequim and Port Angeles. Sequim auditions will be from 6-8 p.m. Feb. 17 at the Museum & Arts DeWitt Administration building, 544 N. Sequim Ave. Port Angeles

auditions will be from 6-8 p.m. Feb. 21 at the Mount Pleasant Grange Hall, 2432 Mount Pleasant Road, Port Angeles. Directed by Janice Parks, “The Cupcake Conspiracy” will be performed March 20-22 and March 27-29 at the Mount Pleasant Grange. Actors will be given audition material at the site and will be expected to be available for all performance dates. Rehearsal dates TBA. The roles for “The Cupcake Conspiracy” are: Max — male – late 20s-50s – a

nervous air traffic controller who sneaks out on a blind date behind his soon-to-be ex-wife’s back. Natasha — female – 20s-40s – a beautiful, sultry Silesian terrorist who has a thing about cupcakes. Alvin — male – 20s-40s – a man of many identities. Suzie — female – 20s-50s – fund analyst, assertive but insecure, Max’s soon-to-be ex. There are also two supporting players who could be either two males or one male and one female. They play the following characters: hotdog vendor, bouncer/Vince, a henchman, Ignatz, a security guard, two terrorists and the narrator.

It is the longest mountain bike trail in the world and riddled with every type of road and trail. It is dirty, muddy and buggy. Before the trip I often imagined how epic it would be to roll together for eight hours a day on our bikes, side-by-side, laughing and catching up, letting all our worries wash away, spending entire days pedaling our rigs through areas only few people get to see, and stopping and camping where we wanted with no rules except for hydration and truth. Then one day I look up from the blur of passing dirt and rock beneath my tires and realize that it is happening, we are writing the story I had for so

I always will remember the towering teeth of rock jutting from the earth and the glowing, blue glaciers hanging above the pristine lakes. I will certainly never forget catching that cutthroat trout in the Fording River or racing down miles of dirt roads at unsafe speeds, eating my friend’s dust. But most of all, what will never fade is the image I have of one afternoon, high on a pass, looking over at the glowing, collective satisfaction on the faces of my three best friends who

man activities can flush or panic them, making them so tense and anxious that they cannot settle down to feed or breed. The birds look to us to protect them. The challenge at Dungeness is that it is so beautiful humans want to enjoy it, too. Is it possible for us to enjoy the spit and still protect the wildlife? Yes, it is. Dungeness was established in 1915 to protect the wild birds. From time to time that protection has stirred local controversy as shown by local newspaper headlines over the 100 years

of the refuge’s existence. Various Congressional acts from 1962-1997 have restated and reinforced the basic principle that in national wildlife refuges the wildlife comes first. Those same Congressional acts also allow nonthreatening forms of human recreation. You can visit and enjoy Dungeness Spit. Unlike some refuges, it is not closed to the public. What can you do on your visit? A lot! You can walk the forest trails and wander out along the ocean side of the spit. If you are feeling

Wolves sending 11 to regionals Three wrestlers take first in sub-regionals by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

It’s the first time since 2009-2010 that Sequim has sent as many wrestlers to regionals. “I know that we have been a young team for the last two years but I feel we are turning the corner and getting a preview of what these kids will do in the future,” head coach Charles Drabek said. “It is exciting to look forward to as a coaching staff.” Wrestlers advancing for the girls

SHS senior Alex Barry helping lead Wolves into district playoffs by MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

In his three-and-a-half decades as an assistant or a head coach at Sequim High, Larry Hill has seen his share of basketball players, his share of styles. There’s a certain kind of player — the fierce, teeth-clenching, uberphysical, wear-your-heart-on-yoursleeve type — that holds a special place in his heart. Alex Barry is not one of those kinds of players. And for Hill, for SHS head coach Greg Glasser, for Barry’s teammates and for the Sequim faithful, that’s just fine. “There are things about him that frustrate me — it’s that even keeledness,” Hill says. “I want competitiveness and toughness. Alex is tough — just tough in a different kind of way.” Tough to defend, tough to get past, tough to rattle — it’s a common theme for Barry’s foes for the better part of four seasons, as the Sequim High senior has developed into one of the more dynamic players in the Olympic League. Long and lean, the 6-foot 5-inch Barry seems to feel

In a showdown between two of the Olympic League’s top teams, North Kitsap’s Vikings had the early answers. Sequim’s Wolves, however, had the last laugh. Alex Barry had 22 points, Jackson Oliver sank four 3-pointers, Josh McConnaughey had a near double-double (eight points, nine rebounds) and all seven seniors scored on Sequim High’s Senior Night in a key 69-62 victory Tuesday night. “This (North Kitsap) is the kind of team I want to play every night,” Sequim coach Greg Glasser said last week. “I may get my wish. From here on out, it’s going to be tough (but) we’re heading into districts the right way.” Sequim finishes its regular season at 9-3 in league play and 14-6 overall. With the Olympic League’s No. 3 seed, the Wolves move on to play at Lindbergh, the Seamount League’s No. 2-seeded team, on Feb. 12 in the opening round of the West Central District tournament. “We expect the 20 games we’ve played us have prepared us,” Glasser said. “We’re going to play a one-game

season. I think our guys are ready.” With both teams having plenty to play for Tuesday night (North Kitsap’s defeat means they slipped into a twoway tie with Olympic), it was all Vikings early on. Six-foot 10-inch NK post Calvin Dennis was dominant with 19 points and a half-dozen blocks. But foul trouble kept the North Kitsap senior off the court for much of the

first and third quarters, and by the time Dennis fouled out with 40 seconds left, the host Wolves were celebrating a big Olympic League victory. Glasser and fellow Sequim coaches said it may be the team’s best overall effort to date. A host of Vikings propelled their squad to a 12-3 first quarter lead against Sequim, with Brooks Ellingsen knocking down a 3-pointer and Dennis getting getting the three on a hoop and foul. Sequim kept things close as Barry, the SHS senior sharpshooter, knocked down a pair of 3-pointers of his own, trimming the NK lead to 16-13 after one quarter. Baskets by Dennis, Cooper Lindsey and David Perry early in the second pushed the Viking lead back to double digits (23-13). Dennis began finding holes in the Sequim defense, zipping a pass to a streaking Lindsey for a basket

and then muscling inside for two more layups in the quarter to give his squad a 29-18 lead. Sequim managed to keep the Vikings from pulling away thanks to long-range shots from Barry and Jackson Oliver, with North Kitsap taking a 34-27 lead into halftime. The turning point came on the first play of the third quarter, as Sequim post Josh McConnaughey worked his way inside for a basket and drew Dennis’ third foul to start a 10-0 Sequim run. Four minutes later, Dennis picked up his fourth foul, drawing protest and a technical foul from the North Kitsap bench. Barry sank both technical free throws and scored on the ensuing Sequim possession; the Wolves went up 40-37 and never trailed after that. With Dennis on the bench, Ellingsen and Cole Rabedeaux led a Viking comeback in the fourth quarter. Timely baskets by Barry, Oliver and Sequim reserve Adrian Espinoza, however, kept Sequim one step ahead. With Dennis back in the mix for the

final few minutes, it was Rabedeaux willing his way to the basket for a layup to cut Sequim’s lead to 62-59 with 1:03 on the clock. Sequim guard Dusty Bates, who finished with nine points, hit a pair of free throws to push Sequim’s lead back to five. Moments later Dennis fouled out, effectively ending the NK comeback. “We didn’t want them to beat us from the perimeter,” Glasser said. “I think the game plan kind of paid off.” SHS seniors Espinoza and Vance Willis had seven points each as the Wolves shot 12-of-21 from 3-point range (57 percent). Austin Adams and Alex Rutherford added two points each in what was likely their final home game. “Our energy (was the difference,” Rutherford said. “We had a lot of ball movement and spread the floor.” Eight of the nine Wolves players had assists, led by Barry’s four. Barry also had 17 rebounds; he and McConnaughey had six offensive rebounds apiece.

Barry

From page B-7 big man Calvin Dennis, a leading candidate for the league MVP, muscle inside for a pair of baskets, Barry calmly dribbled up court, took one deliberate step onto North Kitsap’s end of the court and drained a 3-pointer, the home crowd erupting in “MVP! MVP!” chants. It’s that smooth, relaxed motion from anywhere 40 feet and in that still bewilders those who’ve seem him play the most. “There’s got to be some kind of scientific explanation,” Sequim coach Greg Glasser says of Barry’s stroke. “He has always stretched defenses with his shooting ability,” Glasser says, “but he surprises a lot of people defensively.” With more than 70 steals racked up this season, Barry surpassed Sequim High’s alltime single-season mark of 65 (set by Chad Jacobs, 1997-1998) and is now second on the school’s all-time list (also Jacobs). If he’s not stealing a pass, Barry, is helping teammates down low, using his long arm span to block shots (he’s second all-time, behind Brady Marunde) or snag rebounds (also second, behind former teammate Gabe Carter). “I didn’t anticipate him being as long (as he is),” Hill says. “That’s what makes him special at the high school level. He can control the ball with his fingertips. He may have the wingspan of someone who’s 6-7.” Then, with the ball going the other way, Barry becomes downright lethal, able to pull up from 35 feet or drive to the hoop and use his length to get a shot over just about anyone in his way. With a scoring average of about 20.5 points per game, Barry ranks seventh all-time heading into Thursday night’s West Central District game at Lindbergh and he trails only Ary Webb on SHS’s all-time 3-point field goal list. “His court vision is outstanding,” Hill says, “but for out team, we don’t want him passing a lot.”

Sequim’s Alex Barry, center, gets an earful from SHS coach Greg Glasser as the Wolves take on Port Angeles last season, Barry’s junior year. Barry became the first SHS varsity player to help the Wolves sweep Port Angeles in all four years since the Olympic League was reestablished in 2007-2008. Sequim Gazette file photo by Michael Dashiell

his younger years, from soccer to swimming and baseball, cross country, track and field and more. Already with a half marathon under his belt before he and family moved to Sequim to start middle school, Barry fully expected to be a runner. “I planned to run all the way into college,” Barry says. Those plans changed fairly quickly, however, when a growth spurt put Barry from a long, lean 5-and-a-half-feet to a longer, leaner 6-5 as he entered high school. He kept running for a time but his body didn’t adapt well and after his final cross country meet — an Oct. 18, 2012, Olympic League meet he ran with current hoops teammate Jackson Oliver — Barry was resigned to doing track and field events in the spring and lots of basketball in between. Barry says a key to developing his game was playing select basketball with the local Next Level program, learning the ins and outs on the hardwood almost year-round Honing his skills with teammates Carter, Jayson Brocklesby Barry grew up just outside of Salt Lake and Tim Guan. “Just getting to see older players, better City. He recalls playing all kinds of sports in

players, faster pace (was important),” Barry says. He also hit the gym to add strength, and while he most times isn’t the biggest player on the court, his coaches say Barry’s strength surprises foes. (In the spring, Barry puts that strength on display in the javelin: he took third on the event at the class 2A state meet and is the top returning 2A thrower in the state in 2015). “Out here on the peninsula, guys (with talent) can get complacent,” Glasser says. “He never became complacent.” Barry says he’s still got plenty to learn, particularly with his ball-handling. “There’s always something I can work on,” Barry says.

just wish we were higher up.” Finishing their last five games 1- 4, the Wolves slipped behind the North Kitsap Vikings (7-5, 11-7), the No. 3 seed, who play the Evergreen Wolverines (10-4, 12-5) and the Port Angeles Roughriders (6-6, 10-10), No. 4 seed, who play the River Ridge Hawks (9-5, 10-9). Last year, the Wolves returned to districts after a

two-year absence to lose in the opening round 41-31 to the Franklin-Pierce Cardinals. But this year they have two chances to advance to state and with a win or a loss they’ll face either North Kitsap or Evergreen on Feb. 13. To prepare, Still said he’s done some scouting on the Hornets and to their advantage they have senior Caitlin Stofferahn who plays club basketball with many of the girls from White River. Still said being the underdog may work to Sequim’s ad-

vantage too because Sequim has nothing to lose versus the Hornets. “By being the underdog we can just go there and play,” Still said. “We’ll be prepared but it can be difficult to play teams when you are supposed to beat them.” On the season, the Hornets are averaging just over 68 points per game and allow about 39 points a game whereas Sequim scores about 42 points per game and allows about 41 points per game.

Success comes with the team Each time the Wolves suit up for a game, Glasser, the Wolves’ coach, writes five names on a dry-erase white board, the starters for the night. Sometime before tipoff, someone else — Glasser insists he doesn’t know who — pens in the remaining four players’ names, writes “family” above that and circles it.

For the Wolves’ final game in Poulsbo, Still said the 5236 loss to the Vikings was representative of their struggles with consistency all season. “In that game we do a lot of really, really good things,” he said. “We have stretches where we are really tough but when we aren’t playing well, it’s hard to beat tough teams.” Sequim finished down two 13-11 at the end of the first quarter but down eight at halftime. Sequim rallied to finish the third quarter down

It’s that kind of togetherness — that, a 14-6 record and nine wins in their past 10 games — that has the Wolves in a good frame of mind heading into the district playoffs. While Barry’s numbers continue to pace the Wolves in most categories, Glasser and company revel in the idea that everyone on the team is ready, willing, able and, on many nights, contributing in big ways to wins. As evidenced by Sequim’s big 69-62 win against the Vikings last week, the Wolves have plenty of firepower from the outside from guards Jackson Oliver and Dusty Bates, tough defense and rebounding from post Josh McConnaughey, a bit of everything from guards Vance Willis, Alex Rutherford and Payton Glasser, and high energy efforts from reserves Austin Adams and Adrian Espinoza. That’s what makes for nightmare matchups for a lot of teams facing Sequim, who first must decide how to guard the relatively unguardable Barry and then deal with a seniorheavy (seven of nine) Sequim squad who are ready to pass up good shots for a teammate’s better shot. “Our guys don’t care who takes the shot,” Glasser says. “It’s important that everybody understand that their teammates believe in them and that I do, too.” With varsity playing time dating back to his freshman year, Barry may be more prepared than anyone else on the Sequim squad for the rigors of postseason play. Hill says Barry’s makeup is aptly suited for it. “He’s really competitive. You wouldn’t think that’s part of his makeup,” Hill says. “He’s very effective in pressure situations.” And after high school? Barry has eyes Washington State University, Western Washington University and on several schools, one of which will help pay tuition for playing hoops or competing in track and field events. Hill says that Barry, a solid performer in the classroom as well, shouldn’t have a problem getting much of his schooling paid for. As for studies, Barry is eying “something,” he says, “that prepares me for law school.” The courtroom, it seems, fits Barry’s demeanor. “I don’t get too nervous,” he says.

three points but could only score five points in the final quarter. The Wolves gave up 23 points off turnovers and second chance opportunities, Still said, and they started the fourth quarter with turnovers and giving up second chance opportunities. “Then they got the momentum,” Still said. “That’s been our issue all year. We’re not consistent.” Stofferahn led the Wolves with nine points and seven rebounds while Adrienne Haggerty had eight points.

SHS diver, relay team earn district berths Sequim Gazette staff

In their final tuneup for the West Central District meet on Feb. 3, diver Matthew Craig and the Wolves’ 200 free relay squad punched their ticket to districts. Craig, a freshman, placed fourth overall in earning his district berth while SHS’s relay team of Eric Prosser, Charlie Prosser, Christian Goodrich

and Chase Ridgway placed third and swam a districtqualifying time at the Olympic League divisional meet in Port Angeles last week. Sequim saw each member of its 200 relay team set personal bests to further their postseason chances. Goodrich, Ridgway and Charlie Prosser each swam a second faster on their legs while Eric Prosser set a season best with a 23.55-second

include — Sophia Cornell, first place at 110 pounds, Kaylee Ditlefsen, first at 140, Aylee Bennett, second at 135, Kiara Pierson, third at 115, Alma Mendoza, third at 125, Savannah Fowler, third at 145, and Andrea Kienholtz, third at 155. For the boys — Kevyn Ward won first at 152 pounds, Craig Baker, third at 120, Michael Latimer, third at 220, and Jamie Schroepfer, took fourth at 113 pounds. Both Kiera Phipps (130) and Sven Wiker (145) earned alternate spots placing fifth. As a team, the girls placed third at Decatur High School at sub-regionals on Feb. 7 with 145 points and coach Bill Schroepfer was named “Coach of the Year” for the sub-region. The boys placed fifth in Port Angeles High School and earned the “Sportsmanship of the Year” Award.

Girls team For the girls, the results were much higher than early season expectations said Schroepfer. “We figured we had about four who would advance (to regionals),” he said. “But quite a few of these ladies have impressed me over the season and I thought maybe a few more would squeak in but they did way better than I thought.” Top finishers Cornell (110) and Ditlefsen (140) both won their brackets with two wins each. Cornell won with an open-

ing pin in 59 seconds and a finals 8-3 win over Ana Sanchez of Federal Way while Ditlefsen pinned both her opponents with the first in one minute and the second in 5:29 over Anna Watson of Kentwood. “The ladies’ attitudes were to just go up there and win,” Schroepfer said. “If we win, we win. If we lose, we lose. Even the matches they lost they had good attitudes.” In the consolation bracket, Sequim’s girls went five for five for third- and fifth-place matches, he said. Bennett (135) pinned her first opponent before her next opponent Isabella Livingston of North Kitsap was disqualified. Later Bennett pinned Madison Asaro of Olympic before losing to Sara Mozeleski of Kentwood in a late third round pin. Mendoza (125) won two matches with pins in the first round before losing to first place winner Peyton Reece of Kingston. Mendoza came back to defeat Charity Jesinowski of Port Townsend

leg. Overall, the team improved its personal best by more than five seconds. “They were close before, but today, they put the pedal to the metal,” Sequim coach Linda Moats said. “We are all very excited.” Sequim’s 200-yard medley relay (Eric and Charlie Prosser, Ridgway and Wendall Lorenzen) trimmed three seconds off their previous best relay time, but missed qualifying for districts by 3 seconds. Adrian Gonzalez, an exchange student from Spain who hadn’t trained or competed in diving before this season, completed in nine dives and placed seventh overall. In the 100 free event,

Schroepfer said Kienholtz

Goodrich and Charlie Prosser dropped about two seconds off their previous bests while Gonzalez cut 7.5 seconds off his previous best. Charlie Prosser also improved his 100 backstroke time by more than a second. “I think he will be one to watch for next year,” Moats said.

is his most improved wrestler on the year and she goes out there with a good attitude. Savannah Fowler (145) won by pinning Rachael Marsh of Thomas Jefferson in 3:21 and Phipps (130) won one match to earn the alternate spot. Except for Cornell, Ditlefsen and Mendoza, the rest of the girls are first year high school wrestlers. Looking to regionals, Schroepfer said the girls and boys just need to stay focused. “Our attitudes are great, we just need some fine tuning,” he said.

Boys team This year, the Wolves broke a three-year dual-meet losing streak. In that span, Drabek said he’s definitely seen an improvement from last year and at the sub-regionals that “they are about where they expected to be.” Ward, the boys’ top finisher, won three-in-a-row to claim the 152-pound bracket. He pinned Moufee Borras of Olympic, won in a 7-1 decision over Bremerton’s Tyler Hamlin, and pinned Kingston’s Nick Wolterdorf in 5:42 for first place. Ward said he faced Wolterdorf at a home meet and was

The Port Angeles High School gymnastics squad is headed to districts and they’ll have some teammates from the east along for the ride.

up 12-2 before pinning him. Drabek said Ward was in control from the beginning and was leading 7-4 before escaping and taking down Wolterdorf for the pin. “He is looking primed and ready for regionals,” Drabek said. Baker (120), after winning his first match by pin, lost to first-place finisher Gavin Crain of Port Angeles. Drabek said Baker stepped up in the consolation and swept his opponents with a 9-4 win over Curan Bradley of Port Angeles and pinning Shane Santos of Olympic in 3:46 for third place. Despite a migraine headache and blurry vision, Drabek said Baker told him, “I got this, Coach,” prior to his final match. Latimer (220) lost 3-1 to second-place finisher Connor Lungerberg of North Mason before going to the consolation where Drabek said he came out for a vengeance in his last match. He pinned teammate Eddie Cruz in 3:53 and Tanner

Stracener of North Kitsap in 56 seconds for third. “He feels like he has something to prove and is looking forward to the next step,” Drabek said. Teammates Ben Newell and Jamie Schroepfer faced off to set up the third/ fourth place match-up at 113 pounds. Schroepfer won by pin in 3:58 but lost by pin to Port Angeles’ Cody Anderson for third place. “As a freshman I believe he has gained valuable experience and showed him that he is able to compete at and win at a higher level,” Drabek said. Wiker (145) won two matches with a 5-4 decision and with a 55-second pin of Anton Baur of North Mason for fifth place including and an alternates spot. Nathan Allison (285) won two matches by pin and Grant Pierson (138) and Hunter Davidson (182) both won one match each with Cruz, Davidson, Newell and Allison placing sixth in their brackets.

The Teen Outreach Program (TOP) meets every Tuesday during sixth period study skills in Room 132. TOP provides teens with support and tools to successfully navigate their young adult lives, including healthy behaviors, life skills and a sense of purpose. An important component of the program is community service learning. Students sold hot chocolate at Walmart on Sunday, Jan. 11, from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. in order to provide hygiene items for Serenity House. On Jan. 27, facilitators Briana Galbreath and Nellie Bridge took the TOP students on a field trip to Serenity House in Port Angeles to deliver hygiene items they had gathered and take a tour of the hygiene center, Serenity House offices and overnight “SOS” shelter. Bridge noted, “I think it made a big impression on the students. Our group’s program is very student-driven and the students will soon be deciding on their next community service learning project, although they’ll still accept hygiene product donations for Serenity House.” What knowledge did these students gain from their experience? Senior Halie Wilson said, “It made me sad to learn that there are homeless teens in our area. It made us feel good to help out. People were impressed that we gave up time on our weekend to raise money for the project.” Senior Karla Tinoco recounted, “There were small mats for the homeless people to sleep on at the facility. It was eye opening to realize some kids don’t have their own bed to go home to. They have showers for them to use, which was great. They need more supplies and food for the people, though.” Junior Alyssa Larson said, “Homelessness makes me sad, but I have a good feeling that they have a place like this to help these people.” Junior Ashlei Cosio, who participated in last year’s project, noted, “It’s cool that TOP students are making a change in the community.”

The February and March information sessions and panel discussions are held in Maier Performance Hall, Room E125, and the April information session is held in Keegan Lecture Hall, Room M125 starting at 7 p.m. A campus tour is offered at 6:30 p.m. The Running Start Information Night in Port Townsend is scheduled for Thursday, April 9, at the Fort Worden Schoolhouse, Room D, starting at 6 p.m. The Forks session is Thursday, March 26, at Peninsula College at Forks, Room 101, starting at 6 p.m. For more details, e-mail Cindy Lauderback at clauderback@pencol.edu or call 417-6341.

For the Love of Words ...

From trivia and bingo to poetry and improv acting, Sequim students got a variety of variations on the written word at Family Reading Night, held Jan. 28 at Sequim Middle School. The event, sponsored by the Clallam County Literacy Council, Odyssey Books and the Sequim Education Foundation, and hosted by the school district’s four librarians — Sheri Kruckeberg, Elizabeth Lawson, Linsay Rapelje and Dena Riccobene — saw about 400 students and parents/ guardians attend. Attendees were given their choice of three, 20-minute sessions, from “Harry Potter Bingo” and “Ginger Bread Man Stories” constructing quilt squares inspired by books, making Dr. Seuss hats, creating graphic novels and more — even making up their own “weird and creepy tales” with math teacher Rick Miko (pictured above). Participants also could take part in a “Turn Dreams into Reality” scavenger hunt. Free books and prizes were given away at the end of the evening.

Library to host youth art classes Sequim High School junior Emily Webb helps Helen Haller Elementary student Shalom Eaton, 6, add a flourish to her bookmark at last week’s Family Reading Night event. Sequim Gazette photos by Michael Dashiell Two-and-a-halfyear-old Mia Buhrer puts the finishing touches on her dinosaur, with help from mom Ceci (center) and family friend Becca Glass.

The popular Kids Create Art series for children ages 7-12 will resume Saturday, Feb. 21, at the Sequim Library. Spring sessions again will feature local artists presenting fun, creative programs from 10 a.m.-noon on the third Saturday of each month. Artist Dani LaBlond will be the instructor for the February, March and April workshops. The February workshop focuses on imaginary clay creatures; March 21 will focus on painting and decorating them. On April 18, attendees will learn about the art of printmaking. On May 16, the season’s final session, artist and former elementary school teacher Karen Sisk will introduce participants to warm and cool colors by creating fun, vibrant designs. Pre-register online through the Sequim Library events calendar at www.nols.org, call 683-1161, or send an e-mail sequim@nols.org. All materials will be provided by the library.

Sponsored by caring pet lovers. ATHENA is the SWEETEST girl! Athena used to be good with other animals, but as she matured she now prefers to be the ONLY pet in the home! Athena will need a very well fenced yard, and an owner that can keep a close eye on her (she likes to escape, and she’s very good at it!). Athena loves to be loved, and she needs an experienced owner to provide her with all the best!! GRACIE is a sweet heart! She’s friendly and happy, and calm most of the time :) Gracie loves to go for walks, and then settle in to her bed for a nice nap. Gracie does have a heart murmur, and may need meds for that in the near future. Gracie was very recently diagnosed as having diabetes. So, she has started twice a day insulin and is doing VERY WELL!

www.stinkydogubathe.com AXLE is a big calm guy who is good with other large dogs. He was surrendered because he is NOT good with small kids or small dogs. Axle had surgeries on both knees to correct ligament tears, so he will need lifelong medication to control pain. Also, he will not be able to be a highly active dog, so don’t expect him to be a hiking/running partner! Axle would do best with an experienced rottie owner.

BOO is a very calm and sweet girl! She walks super well on a leash and she will make a great family pet. Boo has just completed a training course at our partner prison training facility, and she was very popular out there! Everyone loved her and her little wagging nub-tail! Boo could stand to loose about 15 lbs to get her into better shape -- it would be very good for her health and her joints.
