Coupeville rally targets fossil fuels By Michelle Beahm Reporter

More than a dozen people gathered Friday afternoon to raise awareness for Divestment Day. The issue of divestment involves pulling money from fossil fuel investments and instead focusing efforts on renewable energy, said Gary Piazzon, event organizer. The Divestment Day Rally, organized by Piazzon and his wife, Dianna DeseckPiazzon, included a brief lecture to inform those in attendance of the issues, a group song and a sign demonstration on the sidewalk off Main Street in Coupeville. “There’s a lot of awareness needs raising,” Piazzon said. This is not the first Divestment event held on Whidbey Island. Starting with one in 2009, Piazzon and Deseck-Piazzon have attended and helped organize four events with 350.org, which Piazzon said is a group founded by university students to help raise awareness of and make a difference in climate change.

Year in crime reveals fairly quiet town By Megan Hansen Co-Editor

It’s been almost a year since the Island County Sheriff’s Office took over management of the Coupeville Marshal’s Office. And in that year, Marshal Rick Norrie has tracked every call that his office receives. The data, he says, helps guide him in adequately covering the town and directing services. From March 1, 2014, through Dec. 31, 2014, the marshal’s office received 726 calls. While Coupeville is one of the smallest municipalities on Whidbey Island, the tiny town is home to Whidbey General Hospital and Island County’s main campus. Both entities bring traffic and issues through the community. A very small fraction of the crime that happens in Coupeville involves residents,

Board explores reserve’s message

By Janis Reid Staff Reporter

For some, Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve is a place to escape to from the big city or the bustle of life. For others, it’s a place to own property and make a livelihood. The question that the Ebey’s Landing Trust Board is aiming to answer in the coming months is: What exactly is a reserve? Unique among properties that are protected under the umbrella of the National Park Service, the reserve is not a park and it’s not simply a grouping of private and public property. It’s a hybrid. “It’s a whole different animal,” said Fran Einterz, who has been farming on the reserve for 15 years and serves on the Ebey’s Landing Trust Board. “It can be really confusing.” How the reserve’s purpose and uses shake down in practical terms, both for the land owners and the public, will be discovered in an ongoing discussion that is happening among trust board members and its Communications Committee. One main reason the purpose of the reserve gets confused is partly due to the language that has been used, said Kristen Griffin, who has been serving as the reserve’s manager for nearly a year now. “It gets referred to as a park,” Griffin said.

“A park has a lot of expectation that comes with it. If people think park, they think, ‘This is here for my usage.’ The communication has not been consistent.” The not-so-urban legend that gets told over and over is about the wedding party who wanders onto a farmer’s private property to take pictures because they believe the reserve is a park and open to the public. While farmers say this happens from time to time, Griffin said the issue is broader than that. Visitors and tourists with dogs, or those who wish to hunt, or even camp can overstep the rights of the private property owners within the reserve. “When people have the wrong idea, it’s going to perpetuate the wrong ideas about where to go and how to behave,” Griffin said. On the other hand, the reserve is meant to be enjoyed, and the trust board is looking to the surrounding community for input.

“To be a success, we need support from the community and our stakeholders. … We need to work together to protect the reserve,” Griffin said. Longtime reserve farmer Wilbur Bishop, who also serves on the trust board, said that his life would be very different if that legislation had not been adopted back in 1984. “If the reserve hadn’t been established, I wouldn’t have spent a career here,” Bishop said. “The reserve is a heck of a good thing. … It has been extremely successful.” Bishop said the reserve and its protections are as unique as the makeup of its property owners and residents who pressed for the legislation 30 years ago. Unlike other National Park Service areas, the reserve was intended to preserve and protect this specific agricultural community,

Burglar sentenced to prison time By Jessie Stensland Co-Editor

A suspected car thief and burglar who was caught after he passed out behind the wheel was recently sent to prison. Christopher Nielsen, 30, pleaded guilty in Island County Superior Court Feb. 9 to one count of possession of a stolen vehicle and two counts of possession of stolen property in the third degree. Under the terms of a plea bargain, both the prosecution and the defense recommended a sentence of four years and five months in prison. The judge agreed.

Nielsen also agreed to pay restitution to four victims. In his statement to the court, Nielsen apologized to the victims and said he committed the crimes because of his drug addiction. Coupeville Marshal Rick Norrie was on routine patrol Aug. 17, 2014, when he noticed a disheveled man slumped on the steering wheel of a Mercedes Benz SUV parked on the front lawn of a home in the Terry Mobile Home Park, according to a report by Lt. Mike Hawley with the Island County Sheriff’s Office. Norrie rapped on the car window, but the man just looked up groggily and laid

Teenagers are being asked to help shape the future of the Coupeville Library this week. The library is hosting a “teen board” for local children ages 11-17 to voice opinions on how the library should develop and what they’d like to see offered in the future. The board will be hosted 3:30-4:45 p.m. Friday, Feb. 20, at the Coupeville Library. “We have teens that are

frequenting the library for a variety of reasons,” said library manager Leslie Franzen, “and we want to pull teens in that are interested in advising us on what their interests are, what they’d like to see that maybe we could do in the library for them.” Upcoming library events aimed at teenagers include movie showings and a science program, Franzen said. This teen board will help determine other events the library can host.

Norrie noticed a hypodermic needle on the floorboard beneath the driver, the report states. A deputy sheriff contacted Norrie and said he had probable cause to arrest Nielsen on the Aug. 16 or 17 burglary of Neil’s Clover Patch Cafe on South Whidbey. The alleged burglar or burglars gained access through a tiny window, and the thieves got away with $200 to $300 in loose change. The thief got in by squeezing through an 18-inch-wide, metal-screened window in a food pantry, according to the South Whidbey Record.

his head back down on the steering wheel. He contacted the resident of the home, but the man had no idea why the vehicle was parked on his property. Norrie ran a check on the SUV and found it was registered to a West Beach Road resident. An Oak Harbor police officer went to the house to check and found the garage door open and evidence of forced entry into the house. The residents were on vacation. Norrie then knocked on the SUV window until the man “finally roused from his stupor and opened the door,” Hawley wrote.

Organized by Franzen and teen liaison Kate Poss, this is the first opportunity in about five years for teenagers to share their point of view with the library, according to Franzen. The first board consisted of about 16 teens, which was “a large number” for a focus group, Franzen said. Still, she hopes that many people will be interested in this board. She’s hoping that there’ll be enough interest to make this a recurring event, with potentially a rotating group sharing their opinions. “We’re hoping to … get kids that are definitely interested in sticking with it, that are truly interested in becoming involved.” For this upcoming event, Franzen said they’ve invited teens who frequent the library but that anyone interested in participating should

contact her or Poss at the library. “Teens need their voice,” Franzen said. “They’re an active part of our community, not just in the library, but throughout the community.” Only one board is scheduled at the moment, though. Franzen said that making it a recurring event would depend on the level of interest the teenage community shows. “Teens have always been an active and welcome group in our community, throughout the community,” Franzen said, “so it makes sense to have them be involved. “We’ve got a culture here that supports our teens.” n For more information about the teen board, visit www.sno-isle.org

That makes it worthwhile.”

All this is done under the tutelage of Purdue, a fifthgeneration farmer who runs the 20-acre Prairie Bottom Farm with wife Julieanna. “He’s pretty cool,” seventhgrader Gavin Knoblich said. “He’d be even cooler if he let me hunt on his property, though.” Purdue, 37, enjoys the life

The class is an educational component to the Farm to School program that the Coupeville School District is working to incorporate. The program involves bringing more locally produced food to schools and providing complementary educational activities that focus on food, farming and nutrition. A Coupeville Farm to School group has been formed made up of area farmers, parents and public health officials. The group, which received a grant to fund a partial staff person to coordinate meetings and research, is working to bring the program to the Coupeville schools. In addition to the educational component, the program calls a partnership with local farmers to provide healthier, locally grown foods to supplement school lunches. So far, that hasn’t happened yet in Coupeville, though the school district’s food contractor, Chartwells, has expressed a willingness to

In the future, Purdue would like to expand the program to include work with solar power, controlling water runoff, even helping propagate Garry oak trees for the City of Oak Harbor and working with other local programs in Coupeville and in Island County. The focus so far has been researching proper seed varieties for the prairie’s microclimate and experimenting with raising those crops on land behind the school that the class is restoring. The hope is that within a few years, a larger scale operation will materialize to give high school students opportunities to learn careertech skills. The school has a sizable greenhouse it shares with the Coupeville Garden Club. “I thought it would be interesting to work with plants to figure out how I could be self-sustainable and what kinds of foods we could grow out here,” said eighth-grader Chris Battaglia, who is taking the class this semester.

Live the Island Dream…

Wilbur Purdue, a science teacher and farmer, teaches a sustainability class that focuses on agriculture and energy.

On a mid-February afternoon, Wilbur Purdue steps inside a hoop house and proudly reveals the fruits of his students’ labor. Well, to be more precise, what he’s showing are vegetables — tidy rows of greens, from lettuce to mustards to arugula. They are varieties students from Coupeville Middle School selected for their ability to withstand winter temperatures under proper care. Students placed floating row cover over them for added protection on the chilliest days. Purdue plucks a piece of mustard green known as Ruby Streaks. “This is one the kids really like,” he said. “If you want to try one, you can. It’s got a little spice to it.” Finding crops that grow well on Ebey’s Prairie and learning how to care for them is one component of the sustainability course introduced at Coupeville Middle School this school year. The class is a hands-on, elective course for seventhand eighth-graders taught by Purdue, a science teacher who also farms on the prairie using many of the same practices. Although sustainable agriculture is a large part of the class, it also teaches students about sustainable energy practices. In the first semester, students built windmills made out of PVC and experimented with blade shape and design in how it could affect electrical output. The course is evolving with its scope stretching about as wide as Purdue’s imagination. Already there are plans to incorporate green building practices into class discussion.

Community should help in educating on unique reserve The ongoing discussion within Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve raises valid concern with its residents and agricultural community. The Trust Board is exploring how the reserve’s unique design poses conMegan Hansen fusion for the thousands of Some perspective visitors each year and how to change that. The reserve is made up of private property owners as well as public lands. The not-so-urban legend that gets told over and over is about the wedding party that wanders onto a farmer’s private property to take pictures because they believe the reserve is a park and open to the public. Reserve manager Kristin Griffin said the issue goes beyond the occasional wedding visit. Visitors and tourists with dogs, or those who wish to hunt or even camp can overstep the rights of the private-property owners within the reserve. The question now is how to define and educate the public, and that’s something the community needs to be involved in, she said. And she’s right. We all live in the reserve and the community should be involved in educating our visitors on its unique logistics — the dos and don’ts. Whether it’s definition revisions, increased signage or additional visitor information, the public should aid in the conversation and be a part of helping implement and distribute that information if need be. It took a community to create this reserve and it takes a community to keep it thriving. We can’t blame the visitors if we haven’t done enough to educate them.

WGH cesarean rate is below average Editor, As the manager of the Whidbey Family Birth Place, I would like to respond to the letter to the editor in last week’s newspaper about the 2013 cesarean section rate at Whidbey General Hospital. When that rate was published, we had already begun efforts to reduce the C-section rate by participating in the LEAPT project, which was sponsored by the Washington State Hospital Association and featured in last week’s “People” section of the South Whidbey Record. This quality improvement project had

several aims: Delaying hospital admission until women are actively laboring, reducing labor inductions and expectantly managing labor, which contributed to a 25 percent reduction in cesarean deliveries for first-time moms in 2014. Like many other Critical Access Hospitals, Whidbey General Hospital cannot currently offer VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean), due to the difficulties hospitals our size have in meeting recommended requirements to safely do so. In spite of this, our overall cesarean rate continues to be lower than the national average and is on par with Washington state’s average overall rate. The Whidbey Family Birthplace

continues to be dedicated to providing exceptional care to the 200 families who welcome their babies with us each year. Our community can take great comfort in the knowledge, skill and commitment to excellence demonstrated by our boardcertified obstetricians, certified nurse midwives and compassionate obstetric nurses who provide exceptional care for the Island I would welcome anyone desiring more information on this topic to contact me.

Tough start for Wolves at district tournament By Jim Waller Staff Reporter

levue Christian/Cascade Christian game.

Both the Coupeville High School boys and girls basketball teams dropped their opening games at the District 3 1A tournament this past week. The boys lost 59-33 at Cascade Christian Saturday, Feb. 14, in Puyallup and were eliminated. The girls fell 50-33 to Bellevue Christian Monday, Feb. 16, at Sumner High School and fell into the consolation bracket. Because the Coupeville girls won the Olympic League championship, they received a bye through the loser-out first round of district and began in the doubleelimination portion of the tournament. The Wolves will need to win two straight to advance to the regional. Wednesday they played Seattle Christian at Sumner; results were not available at press time. If the Wolves won, they play in a winnerto-regional, loser-out game at 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 21, at Tacoma’s Foss High School against the loser of the Bel-

Boys’ season over but future bright

For the Coupeville boys, its loss at Cascade Christian ended the season. The game, however, marked a beginning as well. The Wolves, winners of only three games in the three seasons heading into this one, finished with seven wins and their first district berth in four years. The program is heading in a “positive direction,” coach Anthony Smith said. “I like where it is going,” he added. “Our JV team did well, too. It’s a positive step in the right direction.” Cascade Christian used a hot-shooting night to get by the Wolves. “They shot the ball really well,” Smith said. “We’d have a hand in their face and they would still drain them.” The Cougars jumped to an 18-8 first quarter lead. Coupeville hung with Cascade Christian in the second quarter and trailed 35-23 at halftime. Third quarter blues

bugged the Wolves all season, and another verse came to light Saturday. Cascade Christian held Coupeville to only three points in the period and pulled away 53-26. It wasn’t the Cougar defense that stopped the Wolves in the third quarter, according to Smith, but poor shooting. “Cascade Christian was better than us that night,” Smith said. “They are very athletic and can shoot. They do not waste possessions.” Wiley Hesselgrave finished the season with another strong game, tallying 20 points and grabbing four rebounds. Joel Walstad scored six points, Aaron Trumbull four, C.J. Smith two, Ryan Griggs two and Hunter Smith two. Matt Shank snared five rebounds, Aaron Curtin four and Trumbull and Griggs three each. Griggs added three blocks. “Just wasn’t our day,” coach Smith said. “We battled; we went out swinging again. “It’s a great pleasure and honor to work with these kids.”

Wolves troubled by rugged BC defense

“Bellevue Christian came to play and had a good game plan,” Coupeville coach David King said. “They ran their offense with precision (and) played a physical defense on us all night that disrupted our offense.” The Vikings double- and triple-teamed the Wolves’ leading scorer, Makana Stone, King said. “She had a player draped on her all night.” The Wolves did not handle Bellevue Christian’s rough play well, King said. The officials let the teams play, he added, and his squad did not match BC’s effort. “If the refs allow this type of play, we have to understand this and up our game.” The Vikings’ offense also gave Coupeville fits, getting open looks and hurting the Wolves with dribble drives, King said. Bellevue Christian zipped to quarter leads of 14-5 and 24-9. The Wolves were also hurt by early foul trouble. Page 1 of 1 Coupeville more than doubled its first-half output by tallying 10 points in the third quarter, but BC responded by scoring 16. “I was pleased with the effort midway through the third and through the fourth,” King said. Stone led Coupeville with 15 points and 13 rebounds. Kailey Kellner had five

Hammer, who had a strong defense game, King said, grabbed four rebounds and recorded two blocks. Myers took a charge.

Rally: Group protests fossil fuels

Michelle Beahm photo

Gary Piazzon and Dianna Deseck-Piazzon lead the Divestment Day Rally Friday, Feb. 13.

From page 1 “Whidbey Island has a presence on a national and international stage in these historic events,” Piazzon said. He said that Harvard Medical School estimated about 8.5 million people around the world have died due to climate-related events such as floods and droughts. “The reason we’re so kind of oblivious to it in the Unit-

ed States is the very effective campaign of confusion funded by the fossil fuel industry,” Piazzon said. He said that campaign included suggesting that climate change won’t be a big issue for a long time, isn’t as bad as some claim and is a problem that needs engineering solutions. About 15 people attended the rally, at which Piazzon shared facts about 350.org and other campaigns to raise awareness and make a difference. Deseck-Piazzon read poems and talked briefly as well, and the group joined together in a song about the environment. “The fossil fuel industry is one of the most powerful, profitable corporate entities that’s out there,” said Marshall Goldberg at the rally, “and there are very few ways that people can influence their behavior, and one of them is divestiture of investments. “It’s one of the few ways we can express ourselves and let the fossil fuel industry know that we think

there’re better alternatives, and they’re the ones who can lead the way. They have the resources, and when they decide to invest heavily in renewable energies, it’ll happen.” Deseck-Piazzon, at the rally, said that climate change will create economic and social problems all over the world.
