Pedestrian hit, dies on Hwy. 101 Sequim Gazette staff

A Sequim woman was struck and killed last Thursday morning while trying to cross U.S. Highway 101 near Carlsborg. The Washington State Patrol reports Jason Beaudette, 33, of Port Angeles, was driving west in the righthand lane in his 1997 GMC pickup at 9:30 a.m. on June 18 when Karen Wesolowski, 69, of Sequim, was crossing north to south at Mill Road. Wesolowski was pronounced dead at the scene after being struck by the truck. Trooper Russ Winger said they are awaiting a toxicology report but it’s unlikely drugs or alcohol were involved in the incident. Beaudette was not injured in the incident and no charges are expected to be filed, Winger said. “It will most likely go down as a tragic collision,” he said. Wesolowski was walking toward her home in Parkwood after riding the bus to take her cat for weekly treatment, Winger said. The cat was uninjured and taken to Karen Wesolowski, a 69-year-old Sequim woman, was killed the Olympic Peninsula Humane Society. while crossing the highway in Carlsborg on Thursday morning.

A new village may be going up in Sequim. Clallam Mosaic, a 501(c)3 nonprofit agency formerly known as SNAP that serves people with developmentally disabilties in Sequim and Port Angeles, seeks affordable housing, classrooms and office space for its community. Scott Schaefer, president of Mosaic’s board of directors, said the Home & Good Life Housing Committee has been developing the concept for 1½ years and soon will have conceptual drawings from nonprofit Seattle community design center Environmental Works. Mosaic officials host a forum and present the designs on their proposal from 7-8:30 p.m. Thursday, June 25, at the Sequim Transit Center, 190 W. Cedar St. For more information, contact Mosaic at 681-8642 or 4housing@clallammosaic.org. Schaefer said the need is becoming more immediate to find housing for developmentally disabled adults. “There are so many people who live with their parents who are getting old and it’s coming to a point when they can’t take care of them anymore,” he said. Mosaic officials report Clallam County has 413 individuals with developmentally disabilities living here with 260 people using the Developmental Disability Administration, an in-home assistance department of the Department of Social and Health Services. Another 41 are on a wait list for services. Clallam also hosts two group homes for six fulltime live-in individuals but they are full. Clallam Mosaic served 183 developmentally disabled people in 2014. Board members’ goal is to build: • Seven three-bedroom

apartments • 13 two-bedroom apartments • 10 o n e - b e d r o o m 500-square-foot cottages • Six three-bedroom 2,400-square-foot homes • Two eight-bedroom trilevel group homes • 10-bedroom physical needs/Alzheimer’s unit. The total cost could reach upwards of $16.1 million.

Phase by phase Brad Collins, a Port Angeles city councilman who sits on Mosaic’s housing board, said the project is large and he would expect they start with a smaller component and work phase by phase. “Housing is the main focus,” he said. “They want it to be a self-contained village concept so people with disabilities can do a lot of things within their own village like recreation, food and stores with the opportunity to live quietly in their own complex. It wouldn’t be different from a retirement community.” Mosaic volunteers said they have identified a property but are in negotiations for a price. Missy Rief, chairman of the Home & Good Life Building Committee, said for the land purchase they are applying to the Land Acquisition Program from the Washington State Housing Finance Commission. They also are looking into funding from other state and federal programs, private organizations and grants. “We intend to explore all

possibilities and hope to add people from our community with experience in these areas to help us apply as all of these processes are quite involved,” Rief said. Collins said there are a few village concepts like this for developmentally disabled individuals but none close by. He said the committee’s first steps are to create awareness about the need for housing and find ways to work with the community, such as seeking suggestions for the complex, fundraising, etc. If funding is secured, they’d seek to build a multi-purpose building, a farm and the first set of apartments followed by houses, cottages and more amenities such as the physical needs/Alzheimer’s unit. Schaefer said they tentatively plan to host a similar town hall meeting on Sept. 17 in Port Angeles City Hall.

Barn again

Paul Hansen and his wife, Deborah KeetingHansen pose with their listing opensided barn in the background.

Farming community pulls together to raise 75-year-old Frost barn Photos and story by Patricia Morrison Coate The 75-year-old Frost barn with its broken gambrelstyle roof is standing erect and proud again after three months of work replacing interior and exterior posts, a cross beam and braces. Built to be open on three sides, the barn that’s 50 feet by 50 feet has been in Deborah Keeting-Hansen’s family since 1948 and until this spring, was in danger of collapsing due to a pronounced list on its east side. Her husband, Paul Hansen, and a cadre of volunteers using a winch system raised up the sagging side, replacing three posts, one of which had sunk four feet into the ground, she said. “They winched and pulled it and gradually it became straight but it always will be a little wonky,” Hansen said. At first denied, after their second application, in 2014 the Hansens were approved for a $22,000 grant from the Heritage Grant program through the Washington State Department of Archaeology & Historic Preservation, Washington State Heritage Barn Register. Last spring, the Hansens thought the restoration might cost as much as $40,000, half of that to be matched by them, but with engineering services donated, volunteers from the North Olympic Land Trust, friends and family, the actual cost of labor to restore the former dairy barn, now a working barn for the Hansens’ sheep and hay, was kept to a minimum. “Whatever we pay out of pocket the state will pay half,” Hansen said. “The roof was $5,500 and we received $3,000 in donations so our part was $2,500.” NOLT volunteers stripped the 4,100-square-foot roof of its original 3-foot long cedar shakes over three days. More skip sheeting was added and Paul, his nephew J.P. Carl, a professional roofer, and friend Ryan Fournier were manhandling sheets of corrugated steel 2 feet wide by lengths of 5, 12 and 25 feet up a narrow ladder to the roof last week.

ARE YOU READY FOR

They also beefed up the interior by adding pairs of 18-foot braces. The contract with the state has three stipulations: that the restoration be finished by June 30; that it have cedar shakes or a corrugated steel roof in keeping with its original look; and that it be open to the public. Foregoing the shakes was an easy decision for the Hansens. “It would have taken oldgrowth trees for the shakes and the cost would have been prohibitive, so the next best thing was corrugated steel because it was oldfashioned enough for the state,” Hansen said. Now that they are down to the short rows, Hansen reflected, “I really worried we’d pull it off because I thought it would be very expensive and take a lot of workers and the toll it would take on my husband, but it’s gone surprisingly well and quickly, especially the work on the roof. Paul’s been doing most of the work along with tending the sheep and other jobs and J.P.’s a professional roofer, but they pulled it off. Paul said it’s been fun. “After the roof’s done, we need to rebuild the barn door and do some work on the west wall of the milking parlor and that’s about it. Sometime we’ll have to have a party after I recover my nerves!” If Paul Hansen has been the structural brawn and brains of the restoration, then Deborah Hansen has been the barn’s heart and soul. Deborah Keeting grew up on the farm with her parents, Ralph and Ninna Keeting, who bought 67 acres from dairy farmer Henry Frost in 1948. Frost felled fir and cedar timber from the farm’s forest to construct the barn. It was built as an open-sided hay barn nearly 75 years ago to prevent spontaneous combustion of drying hay. The west side had a milking parlor and Deborah’s father milked a dozen cows for Darigold over 14 years. The barn used a system of a claw and pulleys to bring the loose hay in for storage until 1960

when they began baling hay. The hay hook is now property of the Sequim Museum & Arts Center, courtesy of Deborah’s mother, Ninna. “I feel this is a monument to my parents and a piece of Sequim history and in memory of Mr. Frost. We’re losing so many barns and that this could be saved is really neat and important for the community,” Hansen said. “This is not just profiting us but the community.

are Ryan Fournier, Michael Hannah, Delancey Hannah, Harold Anderson, Bill Sallee and Brad Norman. Family friend Dave LaRoux donated three large logs for the hefty exterior posts. Emotionally, Hansen said, “It’s a tremendous relief because I really thought we were going to lose the barn. We couldn’t have done it without the grant, donations and volunteers and people who loaned Paul equipment. Community spirit is still strong within the farming community, plus the support from MAC, NOLT, the historical society and the Sequim Alumni Association. I also want to express my gratitude to all the volunteers and 4050 donors and the help and support of the community to make this possible.” The barn is at 340 Frost Road; call 681-6306 for an appointment to view it.

Shipley Center, KSQM partner for new tower

When KSQM 91.5 Radio volunteer Joe Streva recalls asking Tama Bankston, the station’s director of Office Administration, for something to do. “She said, ‘We need a handyman to work on the tower.’” Streva thought of KSQM’s broadcasting tower. “I don’t do 200 feet,” Streva said. No worries there. Streva’s project — in partnership with the Shipley Center — was instead to refurbish a model tower KSQM volunteers have used for community events in previous years. With the help of some friends in his art class at the center, Streva and friends will unveil the newly decorated tower at KSQM’s annual Independence Day celebration, set for 10 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Saturday, July 4, near the studio, 577 W.

Deputies seek Sequim man suspected of burglary Sequim Gazette staff

Deputies with the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office are seeking 23-year-old Sequim resident Marlon Lamprecht in connection with stealing guns and about $20,000 in cash from a Clallam County residence. Lamprecht is facing several charges, including burglary in the first degree, six counts of theft of a firearm, five counts of unlawful possession of a firearm and theft in the first degree. On June 15, deputies responded to Hidden View Drive off of O’Brien Road regarding a residential burglary. According to the sheriff’s office, a resident reported a safe containing several firearms and more than $20,000 in cash were stolen between 9-11 a.m. that day. Marlon Lamprecht.

leave the area of the crime scene at a high rate of speed at around 10 a.m., according to the sheriff’s office. The burglary victim suspected Lamprecht, an acquaintance of the victim, committed the burglary. A search of Lamprecht’s Facebook page revealed he was associating with Quinta Huggins, 30; witnesses identified photos of a truck Huggins had posted as the one leaving the crime scene. On June 20, a search warrant was served at Lamprecht’s last known address on Ryser Avenue within the Sequim city limits, by law enforcement personnel from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, City of Sequim Police Department and the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team. According to the sheriff’s office, Lamprecht was not present during the search, but that several items that were reported stolen

Shortly after the search, officers with the sheriff’s office, narcotics enforcement team and the City of Port Angeles Police served a warrant at Huggins’ last known address on West 10th Street in Port Angeles. During the search officers found a few more hundred dollars of the stolen cash and several new items of clothing and electronics. The items were located in vehicles parked at the residence, including the truck used during the burglary, according to sheriff’s office officials. Lamprecht remains at large.

School district promotes Stanton to vice principal at Helen Haller

Summer!

Role to include discipline, staff evaluations by MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

Sequim schools eye online classes District officials consider varying offerings, options for area students by MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

For some students looking for an alternative to the desk-and-textbook setting, a virtual classroom seems virtually good enough. Local school officials are finding that a growing number of Sequim-area students are leaving classrooms for online schools and taking state-apportioned funds with them. “We are losing students,” Sequim schools superintendent Kelly Shea told Sequim school board directors earlier this month. “ T he t raditional setting is not working for them. Those options are somewhere else. The old SHEA days of every kid going to a physical place and going through the same educational system has changed.” Shea said there are 87 students who live in Sequim’s school district boundaries but don’t attend Sequim schools. “These are Sequim kids. It’s not that we want to force them to stay in Sequim,” Shea said. “This is a competitive world in public education. We need either to decide to offer

something to keep Sequim kids in the Sequim School District or decide that’s not something we want to take on — knowing we are losing kids to other school districts. We do have the option to offer our own.” A number of online schools have opened across Washington and while some are based in large school districts — iConnect Academy (Olympia), Kent Virtual High School (Kent), Internet Academy (Federal Way) and iQ Academy Washington (Vancouver, Wa.), for example — many popular online schools in the state are based in small towns. Washington Virtual Academies (WAVA) is based in Omak, Columbia Virtual Academy has offices in Colville and just south of Chewelah, and the Olympic Peninsula has its own Insight School of Washington, operated via the Quillayute Valley School District in Forks. Those districts not only gain student numbers, but get about $5,684 per student apportionment from the state — meaning that the school districts students leave lose not only the student but funding. By contrast, online schools such as WAVA and Insight are considered Alternative Learning Education pro-

some … go and don’t enroll anywhere. We want to find those kids and give them another option before they drop out of school.” Hill said he’s working on more details such as student access to technology — “We don’t want to send kids home with computers,” he said — and that he’d bring a proposal back to the school board later this summer. The impetus to institute an online program becomes heightened, Hill said, as Washington State Board of Education leaders implement Core 24, a set of credit requirements for high school graduation that minimizes elective offerings for those intending to attend a college or university. Online schooling could allow a student to take seven or eight classes instead of the traditional six offered during the school day, he said, giving that student more options. Sequim schools lost a significant portion of its anticipated junior-level high school class for the 2014-2015 school year. While some of the drop-off in this year’s junior class may be those choosing online schooling options, Shea said the vast majority of those leaving Sequim schools are opting for Running Start. A mid-year budget review showed that district officials anticipated 75 full-timeequivalent students to opt for Running Start, but that 105 students enrolled. Higher-than-anticipated enrollment in grades 2-6 offset the drop in grade 11 enrollment and the actual full-time-equivalent student number by mid-year was at 2,611, about five students more than budgeted.

Other than improvements associated with the computer, the things in dentistry that have changed the most are materials. We have digital x-rays, record keeping and processing that came with computer power. But we also have materials that look and act like natural tooth more than ever before. As we strive to improve our services some are sticking with the tried and true Porcelain fused to metal crown. Some are vacillating between the tough dilithium Silicate E-Max material, and the extremely tough Zirconium. (see how tough on youtube.com. Type in Bruxzir hammer test.) Toughness must compete with a more natural wear against opposing teeth. A new material, “Lava Ultimate” by 3M is another consideration because of its easier wear on the the opposing teeth. All these things we consider but rest assured, things are getting better.

grams by the state and would receive an apportionment of $5,755 per student — similar to what colleges receive for Running Start students. “I’m not looking for a way to make us money,” Shea said. “If a Sequim kid wants to go somewhere else, great, but a Sequim kid shouldn’t have to go somewhere else because we don’t have that opportunity.” Programs like online classes, homeschool/public school hybrids, charter schools and Running Start programs have become popular, Shea said, because “people want choices.” “(We) need to be responsive to the community … so that we can compete,” Shea said. “The question is, ‘Should we be offering an online program for students in Sequim who’ve chosen to go somewhere else?’” Randy Hill, Olympic Peninsula Academy principal and past president of the Washington Association for Learning Alternatives, gave Sequim School Board directors an idea of what a Sequim online scho ol program, one HILL he initia lly termed Sequim Option School Blended, could look like, at a school board meeting in early June. Hill said that most of the pieces of such a program are in place already, as Olympic Peninsula Academy students use some online products, and that the district would focus on offering mathematics, language arts, social studies and science classes. “We tend to lose them at grade 11,” Hill said, “(while)

Students, parents and staff at Helen Haller Elementary School will see a familiar face in a new role next fall. Becky Stanton will see plenty of new faces at the youngest level come September as Helen Haller’s first vice principal, helping principa l Ru s s STANTON Lodge with a number of administrative duties from teacher evaluations and mentoring, handling discipline and attendance issues, and aiding staff in the transition to the district’s first year of full-day kindergarten. “I get to really support teachers with what they need and increase student learning,” Stanton said. Stanton has 10 years of teaching experience, with six years at the fourthgrade level and the last four in physical education, kindergarten and last year’s split between kindergarten “teacher on special assignment.” Stanton served half of her day as a kind of administrative support role in conjunction with studies via the University of Washington-Bothell. Next fall, Stanton’s role takes a step up; with the vice principal designation, Stanton will now be able to conduct staff evaluations. “She’s been in that role for two years; this is really going to be an extension of what she’s been doing anyway,” Lodge said. “It (a vice principal at Helen Haller) always has been needed since I’ve been here,” said Lodge, principal at Helen Haller since 2012. “The (incoming) 100 kindergarteners really puts it over the top. We’re expecting there will be a lot of intervention from us. (All-day kindergarten) it’ll become the norm in a couple of years.” Lodge said Stanton is a great fit for the vice principal position. “She doesn’t get too high or too low,” he

said. “The school year is a series of ups and downs and you have to weather those things when that happens. You’ve got to communicate with students, staff, parents, community, and you’ve got to understand how it all fits together. Becky does really that. She excels at it.” Sequim schools superintendent Kelly Shea said Helen Haller Elementary fits the requirements of a two-administrator building with about 600 students in attendance each year. Shea said the district leaves it to the building principals to recommend how to shape their school’s administration, but that Greywolf, Sequim’s other elementary school, doesn’t fit the model of having a second administrator, having fewer students and programs and a lower free and reduced lunch rate. “What I see in this is that teachers and students and parents (at Helen Haller) are able to get a quicker response to situations that occur in the school day,” Shea said. Stanton’s role with teacher evaluations is critical as well, Shea said. “Teachers are challenged by amount of time required to do new teacher evaluations; conservative estimates are that they are three to four times longer than older models,” Shea said. “There are only so many hours in a day.” Stanton said she was considering transitioning from teaching to either a school counseling role or administration when a conversation with colleague Mary Ann Unger turned her toward administration. “It was the last little push that I needed,” Stanton said. Stanton said there’s a misconception about vice principals, that they are all about discipline. At Helen Haller Elementary, she said, the staff is more concerned about re-teaching students. “It all depends on the student and situation,” she said. Discipline can take the form of having student review posters describing expectations of proper behavior at school, writing an apology letter or seeing an administrator during recess. “Every kid, they’re all different; they have different needs,” Stanton said.

Hypnotherapist brings ‘Creative Changes’ Openness is key to receptive subconscious

by PATRICIA MORRISON COATE Sequim Gazette

Want to quit smoking, lose weight, reduce pain, rewire your brain after a stroke? Pat Coughlin Mawson, a certified professional hypnotherapist believes it’s all mind over matter — the subconscious mind, that is. With 16 years of experience in the field, she’s seen some amazing transformations in her clients but says the power of hypnosis not a mystery. Mawson opened her private practice Creative Changes in Sequim last year. “Hypnosis is nothing more than relaxation and repetition. The process is to relax the body and conscious ‘monkey’ mind so that positive suggestions can be offered to the subconscious mind,” Mawson said. “With repetition, the subconscious mind soaks up new ideas like a sponge that affect thinking, attitude and behavior.” Mawson said she doesn’t put her own words in clients’ mouths but rather through hypnosis puts them in a state where they become more receptive to their own written wishes and desires. “Hypnosis can help with more than 200 issues from stopping smoking, to weight loss, to reducing chronic pain and pre- and post-surgical pain, to rewiring the brain after a stroke,” Mawson said. “You can eliminate fears and phobias — any pattern you want to change. There’s nothing magical to it. When you’re under hypnosis, you don’t feel pain and there’s a time distortion, so there’s no fear.” Mawson records each client’s session of her speaking positive suggestions and makes a CD of it to take home for reinforcement. “It takes six weeks to change a behavior so each time the client

For the Sequim Gazette

comes, I make a new CD and I recommend listening to it daily until the next appointment. Some issues require more time to change, such as weight loss, but getting over a phobia can be a one-time session.” Addictions to alcohol or drugs can be the most challenging and require a period of sobriety before beginning hypnotherapy — and an openness to remaining sober. “How effective hypnotherapy is is how open you are to change,” Mawson said. “It’s not brainwashing, it’s not mind control. It depends on the person’s openness to change. It can be very helpful in those cases with some other type of (sobriety) support,” she added, noting that overcoming overeating also is more successful with hypnotherapy in tandem with counseling. Mawson also teaches her clients self-hypnosis techniques such as visualization and breathing — for example, having a cancer patient picture his tumor with a color and shape and envision it shrinking or being gobbled up Pac-Man style.

Creative Changes Location: 11 Redbud Court, Sequim Phone: 972-345-2671 E-mail: Patcough@aol.com On the web: creativechangeshypnosis.org Hours: 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday; after-hours/Saturday by request “Many different things can be done with this mind of ours. Hypnotherapy gives it a new job and helps you figure out what your core issue is,” she explained.

The healing properties of sound

Mawson and her husband, Charles, also employ another modality they feel is very healing — the intense sound and vibrations of quartz crystal singing bowls. The bowls are molded from fused quartz powder and have a crystalline structure — and the body does, too, in its bones, DNA and blood, Mawson explained. “These structures have a natural resonance with quartz and that makes these crystal singing bowls naturally healing to our bodies.” Each bowl is tuned to a musi-

cal note — the Mawsons have a 12-inch “F” bowl and a 20-inch “C” bowl and they are played with wands covered in suede in sweeping circular motions to the rims and sides that raise the tone, volume and vibrations. As Mawson increases the volume, the vibrations become palpable and hang in the air. “The body is 60 percent water and the sound has an effect on the cells. It puts people into a meditative state. I do think the bowls heal,” Mawson said. “If you’re open to change, the bowls will help.” Every Friday from 10-11 a.m. at the Shipley Center, 921 E.

As of March 31, the value of First Federal’s gift to its foundation exceeded $12 million. “We are pleased to announce that we are open for business,” said foundation president David Flodstrom. “With this generous gift, the foundation will build upon First Federal’s legacy of giving back to the communities it serves.” The foundation will accept applications from communities in which First Federal operates a fullservice branch, which includes Clallam, Jefferson and Kitsap counties. Grants will be considered for proposals that conform to one or more of the foundation’s four giving priorities: community support, affordable housing, economic development and community development. “We are very excited about the foundation’s potential,” said foundation Executive Director Karen McCormick, formerly the president and CEO of First Federal. “Of particular interest to us is the opportunity to collaborate with others who are making a difference locally and bring additional resources to projects and programs that will enhance the quality of life for all of us,” McCormick said.

What’s new at the market are some absolutely gorgeous artichokes from Sea Basket Farm. I had the pleasure of interviewing Marilyn and Greg Gundy, the owners. These folks are self-proclaimed “habitual business starters.” Their most recent venture is focused on growing organic produce and sharing their amazing sea baskets. The sea baskets are unique works of art, baskets woven and sewn using carefully treated bull kelp. Marilyn and Greg discovered this skill while traveling and have developed it into a stunning form. They comb the beaches for bull kelp, particularly after storms when it is abundant, then cut it into strips and roll it up to store. When they are ready to work with the kelp they soak it and dry it and get it to be just the right moisture to work with. This is a basket you would not want to leave out in the rain. They also incorporate other beach treasures into the baskets. You will be amazed at the look and feel of them. They are gorgeous and would make any gift recipient ooh and aah. Come and see them being made at the market. The Sea Basket Farm also is growing vegetables; currently, they are bringing in large artichokes. Greg

SEQUIM ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® To Our Sequim City Council and the Property Owners of Sequim:

recent article in the Sequim Gazette reported on a presentation made by City Planner Chris Hugo to our local REALTOR® organization. Presented were the proposed changes to the Sequim Comprehensive plans. There were many concerns voiced at this meeting by REALTORS® as advocates of property rights.

Newell sentenced in heroin case Kim M. Newell, 50, of Sequim, was sentenced on June 5 to serve 60 days in the Jefferson County jail, with credit for 60 days time served in a related case. Newell’s sentence is a result of a guilty plea to possession

of heroin, a Class C felony committed on Dec. 3, 2013. The case began when a Washington State Patrol trooper stopped Newell on U.S. Highway 101 in Jefferson County and arrested Newell for DUI Drugs. An

Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team detective responded to assist with the investigation. After obtaining a search warrant, investigators found heroin and 3,000 new syringes in the vehicle.

Friday SARC Scare

Our current City Council envisions or wishes Sequim to become an urbanized small town. Think Bainbridge or even New England. Their concept of what the community should look like are tree lined streets with neighbors sitting in rockers on their front porches visiting with people as they walk past on their way to shopping or the post office.

The solution, according to our Planner is to have commercial property on the street level and apartments above it. Who is going to live in those apartments? Will they be the people who do not want to live in a multistory home because of health issues? The overwhelming majority of buyers both current and historically in Sequim have no desire to live in two story dwellings. Yet, if this plan is passed this will be their option. The Sequim City Council cannot, no matter how well intentioned, mandate a change in the behavior of our citizens through zoning. As property rights advocates our concerns are the following: Changes to the zoning plan are being made public by signs erected by the City of Sequim, notices in the paper, and local announcements vis-a-vis brochures. However, no letter of notification is being sent to property owners either in town or out of town. How will these people know that the use of their property is being changed, in some cases significantly? These people should and must be notified. The plan was developed to drive development within the City in agreement with the Washington State mandated Growth Management Act. However the plan is in conflict with itself due to the high cost of development fees. As a result the County is experiencing more growth than the City. County permits run approximately $6,500 whereas Sequim City permits run approximately $27,500. The disparity causes more stress on traffic patterns and wear and tear on our streets. Our citizens do not want grid pattern development wherein car traffic can drive straight through. People want to know who is in their neighborhood, they like knowing whose car belongs to whom because they are concerned about the safety and well-being of their neighbors. These people are connected to their neighbors because it is a closed off community and it is a closed off community because of their design. What is wrong with cul-de-sacs and while it may not be as aesthetically pleasing to have a garage facing the street why must the comprehensive plan mandate alley ways and garages off of them? Many of the decisions, recommendations and revisions being made to the Comprehensive Plan will demand a uniformity of design, scale and color which will be imposed on all new residences and business despite the costs incurred in that process. To quote Mr. Hugo at that same REALTOR® meeting the individual rights of the property owners are being removed “for the greater good”. In short it means a great restriction on your needs, wants, wishes and desires as expressed in the custom design of your home or business. The Sequim Association of REALTORS® feels that this effort in social engineering is an egregious usurpation of property rights. It is a disservice to the community which elected you to care for its growth and well-being. Karen Pritchard, President Sequim Association of REALTORS®

The Council’s efforts to gather the idealized wishes of the downtown occupants yielded visions of friends and strangers living blissfully in quaint and small neighborhoods. The reality of this construct does not take into consideration the habits of the people who live within the City.

The solution to this problem as presented by Mr. Hugo is that we need densely populated, smaller neighborhoods with small shops nearby. What happened to Frick’s Drugs and Rookard’s Hardware after the box stores opened? Where will they exist in the near future?

th ex liv a so av th w

Within that vision are small cottages of 850 square feet on small lots which will support that foot print. Also within that vision are small grocery stores, hardware stores and drug stores to which they can easily walk to answer their daily needs.

The desire to walk everywhere was expressed by participants in various presentations. The actual foot traffic is marginal when walking to stores to buy groceries. Take for example the parking lot of any store. People park in the space nearest the entrance because they do not want to walk or are unable to walk. People are not walking to Costco, Walgreens, QFC or any other amenity. They drive.

The driver and Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center patrons were unhurt after a facility user inadvertently crashed her Audi wagon into the northeast corner of the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center on June 19. Sequim Police officer Kindryn Leiter said the driver was parking the vehicle and thought she had pressed the brake but inadvertently pressed down on the accelerator. There likely will be no charges in the incident, Leiter said. Leslee Francis, special assistant and KidZone supervisor at SARC, said the matter of damage costs will be handled through insurance companies. Sequim Gazette photo by Michael Dashiell

State Patrol: Driver in June 20 hit-and-run charged with DUI Sequim Gazette staff

A Port Angeles woman was injured and Sequim man has been charged with hit-and-run and a felony DUI after a twocar collision on June 20 near Taylor Cutoff Road. According to t he Washington State Patrol, Noah S. Schroeder, 39, of Sequim, was driving a 1991 Honda Accord southbound on Gilbert Road and attempted to make a left turn eastbound onto U.S. Highway 101 when his vehicle struck a 2009 Chevrolet pickup truck driven by Port Angeles resident Tina L. Lewis, 43. Lewis was injured and transported from the scene to Olympic Medical Center, according to the state patrol. Schroeder fled from the scene but was later apprehended and taken into custody, according to the Washington State Patrol. Schroeder was charged with failure to yield and a felony hit-and-run/DUI, according to the state patrol.

Port Angeles man arrested in methamphetamine case Local law enforcement officials last week arrested Marvin E. Branham, 48, of Port Angeles, for two counts of delivery of methamphetamine, one count of possession of methamphetamine with intent to deliver and three counts of being within 1,000 feet of a school bus route or stop while committing these crimes.

On June 16, deputies from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, detectives from the Sheriff’s Criminal Investigations Bureau and the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team arrested and booked Branham in to the Clallam County jail. The arrest was a result of a three-month investigation into Branham’s criminal activity. It included Branham selling methamphetamine to a Sheriff’s Office informant on two occasions, Clallam County Sheriff’s Office officials said. Branham was found with a small amount of metham-

phetamine on his person, officials said. During a search of his vehicle under the authority of a search warrant, Branham was found to be in possession of about 1 pound of methamphetamine packaged in eight separate baggies, along with a scale. The street value of this methamphetamine, if sold at the cost of $100 per gram, would be in excess of $45,000, law officials said. Branham has four previous convictions for violation of the uniform controlled substances act, Clallam County Sheriff’s Office officials said.

The Social Security program treats all workers — men and women — exactly the same in terms of the benefits they can receive. But women may want to familiarize themselves with what the program means to them in their particular circumstances. Understanding the benefits may mean the difference between living more comfortably versus just getting by in retirement. Social Security plays a vital role in the lives of women. With longer life expectancies than men, women tend to live more years in retirement and have a greater chance of exhausting other sources of income. With the national average life expectancy for women in the United States rising, many women will have decades to enjoy retirement. Women represent 57 percent of all Social Security beneficiaries age

62 and older and approximately 68 percent of beneficiaries age 85 and older. Today the average life expectancy of a 65 year old woman is age 86. As a result, experts generally agree that if women want to ensure that their retirement years are comfortable, they need to plan early and wisely. In 2012, for unmarried women — including widows — age 65 and older, Social Security comprises 50.4 percent of their total income. In contrast, Social Security benefits comprise only 36 percent of unmarried elderly men’s income and only 30 percent of elderly couples’ income. In 2012, 49.6 percent of all elderly unmarried females receiving Social Security benefits relied on Social Security for 90 percent or more of their income.

Social Security, and how much more you are likely to need. You can start with a visit to Social Security’s Retirement Estimator. There, in just a few minutes, you can get a personalized, instant estimate of your retirement benefits. You can find it at www.socialsecurity.gov/ estimator. You also should visit Social Security’s financial planning website at www.socialsecurity.gov/planners. It provides detailed information about how marriage, widowhood, divorce, self-employment, government service and other life or career events can affect your Social Security. If you want more information about the role of Social Security in women’s lives today, Social Security also has a booklet that you may find useful. It is called Social Security: What you can do What Every Woman Should Know.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Missing the mark with missing pledge With reference to “Shame on the City of Sequim” (Letters to the Editor, Sequim Gazette, June 17, page A-12): The writer of this letter was spot on when he decried the oversight of reciting our “Pledge of Allegiance” at the dedication of our new City Hall. In our modern world dedicated to hedonistic self-absorption, ignoring traditional ceremonies are becoming more common. Despite the reply by Mr. Burkett, in my opinion couched in typical bureaucratic hogwash, I am convinced that no thought at all was given to reciting our Pledge. Not having our colors displayed on Flag Day from a public building is inexcusable, if no lights are available then a police officer on duty could have retreated the colors at sunset, indeed this should be the practice until night time lighting of the colors is accomplished. In short, Mr. Burkett’s reply was nothing more than a litany of lame excuses. Ethan Harris Sequim

SARC fosters health, happiness

We recently received an informational pamphlet authored by a local real estate broker which included an article claimed to have been submitted by one “Nanci Biery, on behalf of Citizens for SARC.” The article, entitled “A vote for SARC is a vote for community,” endorses the creation of an additional taxing authority in the form of a five-commissioner member local Metropolitan Park District. If this plan gets past the voters, these five commissioners will initially have the power to add an additional tax burden, at a rate of up to 75 cents per $1,000 (assessed valuation) on each of those homeowners residing within the Sequim School District. The Aug. 4 referendum will propose a beginning mil rate of only 12 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation but at any point in time, subsequent to the establishment of this brand new Metro Park District — without voter approval — these five commissioners may raise the mil rate to 75 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation. In effect, these five commissioners will have a blank checkbook. Of course, as Ms. Biery writes in her article: “It is up to the voters to elect honorable people who are committed to keeping the levy rate low.” We ask, in what world does Ms. Biery live? Currently, SARC is held under the auspices of the Clallam County Parks & Recreation District. And as unfair as it may seem to be, the costs associated with managing and maintaining this local luxury Sequim facility, are spread among the taxpayers of the entire county. The Aug. 4 referendum, if passed, will remove the county’s control of these expenses, transferring these costs onto the lesser number of taxpayers who reside within the Sequim School District. These costs are presently apportioned among the larger population of the entire county. Additionally, should the voters pass this measure, the proposed removal of the “arms length” oversight by county commissioners, who now control SARC and are presumably less inclined to spend county taxpayer

‘This isn’t Mayberry’ The city’s response to a letter that was in the Sequim Gazette last week explaining that the lame duck city manager thinks that because a police chief can blow a bagpipe it took the place of the time-honored tradition of a Pledge of Allegiance at the new Civic Center dedication ceremony as the writer stated was unacceptable. And it is also not acceptable that, after 14 meetings in a year’s time, a collection of city and county elected officials still can’t make a decision regarding the city/ county rules and regulation on the new marijuana law, therefore, they may send the issue back to the voters, costing everyone more time and money. This isn’t Mayberry folks, so let’s get a decision … just my opinion. Bob Lampert Sequim

After attending 1,500 city council meetings and preparing eight different cities’ budgets over his 46-year career, Sequim City Manager Steve Burkett retires on June 30. Burkett, who served Sequim since October 2009, plans to stay here and vacation in Mexico in the winter for extended stays but on July 1, he’ll be readying to go crabbing early the next morning for opening day. He attended one last city council meeting on June 22 and was honored by the Sequim City Council. Earlier in the day he spoke about his career saying he feels fortunate that Sequim was looking for a city manager when he was looking for his last city manager job. “It worked out great for both of us,” he said. “I was fortunate Sequim needed a city manager with a lot of experience.” Burkett said prior to his arrival, Sequim grew rapidly but hadn’t established many important policies such as with finances and master plans. “One of the things I’m most pleased with is the ability to get a lot of that foundation in place for professional management because for a long time Sequim was just a small town and didn’t need or want those standards,” he said. Burkett said he’s also grateful for stability on the city council. “It’s one of the best city councils I’ve ever worked for,” he said. “They obviously have differing opinions but don’t criticize each other and work together well. The key is there’s a lot of trust between the city manager and staff and the city council and that’s not always the case in city government.”

He first served as a city manager in Springfield, Ore., in 1980 and Sequim was the smallest city that Burkett served as city manager. “For me it was a great opportunity to be in a small town like Sequim and make a difference and leave it better than I found it,” he said. “It’s a great ending to my career in public service.” Here, he shares what led him to become a city manager. “In the sixth grade, in the mid 1950s, for whatever reason I was really interested in current affairs. I was living near Pasco and my parents subscribed to The SpokesmanReview newspaper. I read that everyday. For whatever reason, I have this vision, being down on my hands and knees reading it. I was real interested in what was going on in the country back then. There were a lot of things going on like civil rights. My sixth-grade teacher suggested I become a journalist or a newscaster because I was interested in public affairs. In college in 1965, I took a course in local government. The city manager of Tacoma came to speak to our class. That was the first time I knew there was even such a thing as a city manager. His description of his job sounded pretty exciting. As a matter of fact he had to leave in the middle of his presentation because they were having some kind of civil disturbance as part of the Daffodil Festival or something. There

What do today’s kids need? “Every kid needs to continue learning beyond high school,” says Shea. According to Shea, we continue to teach like we did 50 years ago if not 100 years ago. He points out that kids can no longer count on having a lifetime job in industries such as manufacturing, have 2.5 children and retire with a pension. We have entered an age of accelerated change that requires adaptability and resilience which require continuous learning. The classrooms of my day and even Shea’s day worked then, maybe, SHEA but not now; yet change is slow even though experts in the field know change is needed. “We are always trying to unlock the mystery,” says Shea. “We all want kids to succeed.” He lists some of the more difficult locks. Chief among them is the “politicization” of public education which shouldn’t surprise any of us who hear sound bites

at the state capitol to restore it. But for diabetics like myself and people suffering from Parkinson’s disease and Alzheimer’s, funding for promising start-ups must continue researching new treatments and medicines. A company like M3 Biotechnology Inc. may not have located in Washington if not for LSDF. It is an innovative young therapeutics company with potentially game-changing drugs designed to treat diseases like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis and ALS. LSDF provides a financial bridge from the challenging period at a company’s birth to a time when those companies are more attractive to investors. Supporters identified 40 companies in the past decade that have benefited from LSDF grants and point out that it has generated more than $1 billion in statewide business activity. They calculate the fund has a seven-to-one return on the state’s investment and created

3,500 jobs and $67 million in health care savings. Some may argue that our state shouldn’t underwrite life sciences research, that we should let funding come from foundations and corporations. But Washington has provided incentives before — and they work. For example, in the 1970s, Gov. Dan Evans (R) and the Legislature embarked on an aggressive program to clean our air and water. They approved a sales tax exemption to offset large private investments in pollution control equipment. Then after the 1970 -1971 Boeing layoffs, Evans and the Legislature passed legislation allowing a sales tax deferral for manufacturers who modernized their plants and hired or retrained workers. W hen Washington started competing head-to-head with Oregon for semiconductor manufacturers, Sen. Al Bauer (DVancouver) worried that, without a sales tax exemption for new

manufacturing machinery and equipment, Washington would lose those plants to Portland. They passed legislation in 1995. In 1996, the first year of the exemption, an Association of Washington Business survey found that 141 small manufacturers purchased more than $250 million in new machinery and equipment and SEH-America built a $4.5 billion plant expansion in Vancouver instead of Portland. Today, with the strong worldwide competition for life sciences research, Gov. Inslee and lawmakers should restore LSDF funds because a tiny shot in the arm could make a world of difference. Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist. He recently retired as president of the Association of Washington Business, the state’s oldest and largest business organization, and now lives in Vancouver.

were a lot of urban riots and unrest in the mid-1960s. I wasn’t really interested in partisan politics but I was interested in this thing called being a city manager where you could be involved in civic affairs and building community but you didn’t have to run for election. So I took a lot of courses in management and I eventually got my master’s degree in political science with a concentration in public administration. My bachelor’s degree was in education. I originally wanted to be a teacher. I student-taught in high school. My first job in this business was 46 years ago in 1969 when I was hired in an intern program in Phoenix, Ariz.

The Legislature is so locked that our state was found in contempt for their failure to fund kids’ education due to the inaction of the last session. Meanwhile schools struggle to make

Feedback for the Clallam County Charter Review Commission via a questionnaire released online and through local news mediums in late May is due Tuesday, June 30. Reflecting public comments and ongoing deliberation as a commission, the commission created a survey with eight questions focused on areas of the Clallam County charter in need of possible amendment. The questionnaire sent directly to 33,700 county residents included things like the appropriate number of county commissioners, whether the Department of Community Development director should be elected, elec-

tion processes and whether elected officials should be allowed to serve on the Charter Review Commission. “I’m hoping it can be an educational tool,” Norma Turner, Charter Review Commission chairman, said. As of June 15, the commission had received about 800 responses. Returned surveys are far less than the questionnaire sent out during the previous charter review that brought in 24,000 responses. In the past, the review commission sent the questionnaire with utility bills, but since then Clallam PUD has changed its policy and “weren’t very supportive,”

Turner said. Thus, instead the commission sent the questionnaire t hrough the Peninsula Daily News, Sequim Gazette, Forks Forum and the Port O Call, reaching a little less than half the Clallam County population. Despite fewer residents directly reached via mail, Turner is “delighted to have the survey out there” as it has “stirred a lot of discussion,” she said.

Varying ideas Of about 40 residents attending the commission’s public hearing in Sequim on June 15, 14 gave pub-

lic comments varying in opinions. Despite the differences among the comments, most focused on either how many commissioners should represent the county and/or whether the DCD director should be elected or appointed. “I support placing the option for five commissioners on the November ballot,” Candace Pratt, Sequim mayor, said from the position of a private citizen. Pratt also noted her “strong” belief that the county’s DCD director should be appointed. In contrast, Dick Piling stated his like for local control. “The DCD director should remain elected,” he said. “Keep control in the hands of the people.” Clallam County is the only county to have an elected DCD director. A small handful of area residents suggested few to no changes to the Clallam

County charter. “We have to be careful of feeling that we have to do something,” Jerry Sinn told the commissioners. “Not having any recommendations is not failure.” The “voters have already spoken” on some of the topics being questioned, Sinn said, and therefore recommendations for change aren’t “warranted.”

Locally structured government Public insight collected through public hearings, regular meetings and the questionnaire allows the Charter Review Commission to refine what’s placed on the ballot for potential change. “Just because we’re elected to review it (charter) doesn’t mean we have to make changes, but this is one opportunity to evaluate it and make adjustments if there are any issues out there,” Turner said. Unlike 33 counties gov-

“He was personable, he spoke his mind, he was very knowledgeable and he has a lot of experience, although not a lot of formal city manager experience,” he said. City councilors made their decision Friday night and they discussed Bush’s contract on Monday night. His tentative start date is Aug. 17 with a base salary of $120,000 a year at least for four years, which includes up to $5,000 in moving expenses, $300 monthly car allowance, 80 hours of sick leave, medical, dental, vision, life and long-term disability and retirement insurance. “We are really excited because this he’s a young man and energetic and has a lot of enthusiasm,” said Mayor Candace Pratt. “(Sequim) seems to be a great fit for him professionally and he has had experience in small towns and large towns.” Councilors said there was a runner-up but would not disclose the candidate’s name. They also voted 5-2 to appoint City Attorney Craig Ritchie as interim city manager after Burkett retires on June 30. He’ll receive a 10-percent monthly pay increase until Bush begins.

in the late 1990s. He said older suppression systems still were being serviced until recently when the companies servicing them said they can no longer certify them. Last month, Las Palomas Mexican Restaurant, 1085 E. Washington St., was shut down for two days by the City of Sequim until its fire suppression system was repaired. Hall said the business’ suppression system wouldn’t pressurize but they found a vendor who could sell them a replacement bottle of suppressant. However, officials gave Las Palomas’ owners

them to resources like restaurant supply companies. Another business feeling regulatory pressures is Sunshine Cafe, 135 W. Washington St., which after an inspection was given until October to replace its hood system for being out of compliance. Allen and Dianne Drake have been renting the space since 2001 and have been in negotiations with Olympic View Properties owner Brown M. Maloney and city and fire officials to find solutions for the costly repairs. Dianne said she made T-shirts with “Save the Sunshine Cafe” on them with the intention to save her business due to the cost. When asked by customers about the shirts, she said, “It’s my prayer right now.” Later, Allen said he and Maloney came to an agreement about the system’s cost and fire officials continue to look for solutions, too. “I can’t speak for all landlords, but a hood is a part of the infrastructure of this building and what they

lease,” Maloney said. No timetable has been set for the repairs but Maloney said he’s left it up to the Drakes to decide the best time to close temporarily for repairs. The Moon Palace, 323 E. Washington St., also faced some costly changes. Owner George Lee said he was told to update his fire suppression system. It cost about $3,500 to replace. “Before, mine was a powder and not a liquid and foam system like today,” he said. As a renter of the building for 29 years, Lee said he was responsible for the change since it wasn’t part of the building. Moeder said they continue to inspect restaurants annually and plan to work with them as best as possible in continuing to find solutions. “The ultimate thing is if (businesses) have an issue they have to be corrected to current standards right away,” he said.

Fernando Lopez, co-owner of Las Palomas, said he found the news startling. “We have an inspection every year and they’ve never said anything before,” Lopez said. He estimates a new fire system at around $3,500 but his problems don’t end there. Lopez said he was told his hood system for cooking is too small for its original footprint. The cost could be more than $20,000, estimated by other restaurants and fire officials, to replace the system.

Bush said he’s moved on from each job on his own with “a desire to gain more experience and perspective.” He holds a bachelor’s degree in political science from Wittenberg University and a master’s degree in public administration from Syracuse University.

During his interviews with city councilors and staff Bush said some of their top priorities include funding infrastructure like city streets, the environment’s role in regional growth and that the economy is vital. “For now, I’m coming to listen and learn,” he said. “I’m not going to presume I know things more than the community and the people who have been here a long time. Starting out, I’m deferring a lot to the council and the staff and their perspective.” On what he brings to Sequim, Bush said he has high level of leadership qualities, an ability to relate to people well and plan and organize to get things done. Bush serves on a number of committees including on the board of directors for the Association of Washington Cities and has experience working with service agencies like the Rotary and Boys & Girls Clubs of America. He said he’ll discuss with the city council future plans to join local organizations and outreach to those groups to see where the gaps are in the community.

erned by general law enacted by Washington State, in 1975 Clallam County became one of seven counties to operate under its own unique home rule charter allowing citizens to help shape how local government is structured. “Approval of the Clallam County Home Rule Charter provides for increased local control over our government and increased local involvement in that government by its citizens,” according to Clallam County Charter. Every eight years an elected commission of 15 citizens from the three districts of the county review the Home Rule Charter and make recommendations for any changes. After identifying changes, if any, voters are given the final say during the November general election. Language drafted by the review commission is due to the Clallam County auditor in early August for placement of the November ballot.

KNEE PAIN New FDA Approved Treatment Proven to Relieve Knee Pain

Did you know

that over 100 million Americans suffer from knee and joint pain? In fact, this pain accounts for 25% of all visits to primary care physicians and half of all anti-inflammatory drug prescriptions.

SAY GOODBYE TO KNEE PAIN – THE NON-SURGICAL WAY WHAT IS INJECTED INTO THE KNEE?

Start Living Your Life

PAIN FREE! WHAT IS OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)? Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease, is the most common type of arthritis. In osteoarthritis, the surface layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows the bones under the cartilage to rub together resulting in pain, swelling, and loss of motion of the joint. Although in some people it progresses quickly, in most individuals joint damage develops gradually over years.

Knowledge & Experience NW Pain Relief Centers

• Allied Team of Health Professionals • Years of Experience • Physical Medicine Rehab

After treating hundreds of patients, the doctors have a great understanding of each condition and they know what protocols to include for successful treatment.

pain free!

The exact cause of osteoarthritis is unknown. Factors that might cause it include the following: • Being overweight • Getting older (wear and tear) • Joint injury • Joints that are not properly formed (alignment/imbalance problems) • A genetic defect in the joint cartilage • Stresses on the joints from certain activities including sports, work and leisure activities

WHAT ELSE IS AVAILABLE TO TREAT KNEE PAIN? After careful study and several trials the FDA approved a new treatment aimed at helping those with knee pain. This new treatment is a high-tech answer for all those who think that surgery, dietary supplements and prescription medications are the only options to eliminate knee pain.

Therefore, the easiest way to think of hyaluronic acid injections is that they help replace the joint’s natural fluid, which is otherwise lost in osteoarthritis. It is similar to changing the oil in your car. If your car were to run low on oil you would have some serious wear and tear on the moving parts. More oil would be necessary to remedy the situation.

FEEL BETTER IN WEEKS Most people feel better in a matter of weeks and can begin enjoying everyday activities.

WILL MY INSURANCE COVER THIS TREATMENT? YES, most major insurances and Medicare will pay for some if not all of our services.

ARE YOU A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR THIS TREATMENT? Do you wake up with knee pain? Does your knee pain keep you from certain activities?

• Covered by most insurance companies including Medicare • Treatment is Safe, Easy and requires NO surgery

Extensive training, experience, and diagnostic ultrasound allow us to pinpoint problem areas with high accuracy. A viscosupplement is then injected and the healing process begins. Viscosupplementation bonds with naturally occurring joint fluid to create a lubricating and cushioning layer. It also reduces pain, inflammation, and swelling of the joint. Most patients compare the treatment to getting a shot at the doctor’s office and report little pain or discomfort.

SPACE IS LIMITED TO THE FIRST 30 CALLERS!

Disclaimer: Due to Federal Law some exclusions may apply.

Do you take medications for knee pain? Do you have difficulty going up and down stairs due to knee pain? Are you considering surgery to alleviate knee pain? Have you tried everything to get rid of knee pain with no success? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are ready to experience the relief and healing found at NW Pain Relief Centers.

HOW DO I KNOW THAT THIS IS RIGHT FOR ME?

In most cases, if you have knee pain, this is a great solution. Our doctors will give you an honest and fair evaluation of your particular knee pain. Space is Limited to the First 30 Callers!

WHAT CAUSES OSTEOARTHRITIS?

Hyaluronic acid is similar to substances that occur naturally in your joint. The outside of the joint (joint capsule) is comprised of a sturdy fibrous tissue. The lining of the joint capsule contains synovial cells which secrete a thick, viscous synovial fluid. Hyaluronic acid contributes to the viscous nature of the joint fluid, nourishes the cartilage, helps eliminate waste products, lubricates the joint and acts as a shock absorber inside the joint. Hyaluronic acid is reduced or lost with those who suffer from osteoarthritis.

All about pesticides Whether you have a small yard or acres that stretch toward the horizon, your use of pesticides impacts the environment and others in your community. Pesticides are products used to kill pests such as insects, fungi, slugs and weeds. If mishandled, they can be harmful to humans, other animals and the environment. Answer Get It quesGrowing these tions before by Judy English considering and Jeanette use of a pestiStehr-Green cide: • Have you identified the pest or disease causing the problem? • Is the level of damage great enough to warrant control? • Is the problem likely to go away without action? • Have you tried cultural, biological and mechanical controls? • Is the pest in a vulnerable stage at the time you will apply the pesticide? If you decide to use a pesticide remember, “The label is the law.” Read the entire label before purchasing. The pest or disease to be targeted and the location in which the product is to be used must be listed on the label. By law, people who use pesticides MUST read, understand and follow label directions. Purchase the least toxic product based on the signal words that appear on the label: “CAUTION” (least toxic), “WARNING” (mid-level toxicity) or “DANGER” (most toxic). Avoid pesticides with warnings such as, “This product is highly toxic to bees” or “Do not apply where runoff is likely.” It is illegal to use a pesticide on a food crop unless that food is listed on the label. Look for “pre-harvest” information to know how many days must pass between spray

The gardens: • Marilyn and Stephen Brock turned a bare and featureless 1.25-acre parcel into an inviting haven. A fire pit surrounded by na-

tive trees and a natural rock berm, pathways winding through intimate garden spaces and a custom cedar sauna in a Japanese-inspired area are some of the features that await the garden visitor. A variety of art work complements the textures and shapes of the garden. • Robin and Ray Bookter made their property a place of hidden treasures. A grape arbor and a walkway with unique stonework and numerous shade plants highlight the home entrance. Beyond the entrance and gazebo, a rose garden with more than 60 roses awaits. Two other gardens feature dahlias and irises while a new compost area is ideal for the home gardener. • Rob and Renee Johnston overcame two challenges in their garden — the wind blowing across the Sequim Prairie and the lack of plant nutrients in wet clay soil. Rustic structures made of recycled m ater ia ls help protect the garden from the wind and some plants and trees act as wind ba r r iers. Raised beds full of lush plantings, some in full sun and some in deep shade, are home to a wide variety of plants (photo, above). • Tanya and David Unruh took an unimproved 5-acre parcel and created several distinct gardens. Native trees and shrubs, wildflowers, shade lovers, perennials, ornamental plants and abundant edibles inhabit a cottage garden, meditation trail, fountain garden, waterfall bed and other areas. The couple said these ever-changing landscapes and the paths that connect them are meant

Marilyn Brock said she likes vignettes in her garden that she and her husband, Stephen, started nine years ago. “You turn a corner and see something different that makes you want to keep going,” she said.

Robin and Ray Bookter’s garden features a gazebo and 61 types of roses that are all identified.

Linda and Jim Spreine’s home features a woodland village, a view onto the strait and a rustic garden using bed frames.

My first time owning a cow by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

I had the property, I already had the horse and understood the responsibility of caring for a one-ton animal, so naturally I thought to myself, “Why not raise a cow?” Well, here’s an insight into my first month as a “cattle rancher”: I can’t say I’m quite deserving of that title yet — or perhaps ever — but I am going to use it anyway. I like hamburgers, I like spaghetti with a savory meat sauce, I like prime rib, beef stew and I really like a good steak, but I don’t like the idea of feedlots. My solution: Sequim Gazette photo by Alana Linderoth raise a cow and eat it.

Though raising a cow seemed like a pretty good idea to me, it’s something I’ve never done. I have horses and grew up with them. I’d like to think I understand horses and I know what it’s like to slog through ankle-deep mud in the wind and rain to feed them multiple times a day and break ice off the water trough throughout the winter. But after doing a few preliminary Google searches on “raising your own beef,” I quickly realized beyond having four legs, cows and horses are far different and not just in the number of stomaches they have. Excited at the idea of rearing a cow, but unsure, I mentioned the thought to my boyfriend, Ralph, who knows even less about large, warmblooded creatures. Instead his area of expertise is on the smaller, slower, sea-dwelling critters as a shellfish biologist.

Never use a sprayer that has contained a weed killer to apply an insecticide or fungicide. This may kill a desirable plant. Store pesticides only in original containers and cover the label with clear plastic tape to keep the label/ instructions legible. Never store pesticides in the house or near food or medical products. Preferably, store pesticides in a locked cabinet, on a shelf at least four feet off the ground, away from children. The shelf-life of a pesticide may be listed on its label, but if not assume two years.

Breezes can spread a pesticide to places you do not want it to go, like right back into your face! Keep children and pets out of the application area and do not allow them back into that area until the pesticide has dried or settled.

Patterson’s pieces picked for aerospace art exhibit Sequim artist Priscilla Patterson, a member of the American Society of Aviation Artists, recently was honored with the acceptance of her work in the ASAA 2015 International Aerospace Art Exhibition at the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force gallery in Savannah, Ga. Patterson was one of 32 artists from around the world whose work was selected from over 100 entries. The display opened May 12 and runs through Aug. 28. Her oil painting, titled “Serenity,” depicts a Cessna 206 and DeHavilland Beaver at rest in the calm waters of Kodiak, Alaska’s Trident Basin. Patterson and her husband are former long-time residents of Kodiak

and have lived in Sequim since 2006. The ASAA holds annual forums which cover a variety of subjects and valuable information for artists, collectors and aviation enthusiasts alike. During this year’s ASAA Forum, which ran from May 11-15, Patterson’s painting was awarded second place in the General Aviation Category. She also received a silver Founders’ ribbon in the unjuried exhibition for her watercolor painting depicting the restoration of the Mighty Eighth Air Force museum’s B17, “The City of Savannah” (pictured).

The May 30 “Stars of Tomorrow” benefit concert brought out some of the top young music talent across the Olympic Peninsula and also raised funds for the uncompensated care of children at Seattle Children’s Hospital. Pictured are flautists Josh Gershon and Tirzah Small. The concert was organized and sponsored by the Sequim Guild (The Sequim Guild is part of the Seattle Children’s Hospital Guild Association). During the concert eight area youth musicians performed for the crowd at Sequim Community Church (Kate Powers, Josh Gershon, Tirzah Small, Lum Fu, Paige Lamar, Logan Lamar, Claire Lamar and Ethan Powers). Sets ranged from classical to jazz to Texas swing played on violin, piano, flute, fiddle and guitar. Seattle Children’s Hospital Guild Association is the largest all-volunteer fundraising network for any hospital in the nation. Last year alone, Children’s provided more than $1.7 million in uncompensated care for Clallam County children. For more information, see www.sequimguild.org. Submitted photo

The city accepts sponsorships to cover the costs, Kuznek-Reese said, and they are nearly $2,000 short to cover their costs with those sponsors. Traditionally, the City of Sequim pays about $1,000 to cover the final costs split from its general fund, sewer fund and lodging tax funds, she said. From 2007-2009, the city

“

hy don’t victims just leave?”

Those of us who work at domestic violence programs hear this question all the time. The truth is, they do. Every day we hear from survivors of abuse who were able to find the support and resources they needed to be safe and self-sufficient. Every day we also hear from people who are unable to leave because they fear the abuser will be more violent if they do. This fear is very real. According to the Washington State Domestic Violence Fatality Review, in at least 55% of homicides by abusers, the victim had left or was trying to leave. Many people are unable to leave an abusive relationship because they have nowhere to go. Our communities don’t have enough affordable housing, and shelters and transitional housing units are limited. On just one day last year, domestic violence programs in Washington could not meet 267 requests for housing. People often stay with or return to an abusive partner because they don’t have the money to support themselves or their children. We also hear from people who don’t want to leave, but want the abuse to stop. Research consistently shows that people in an abusive relationship make repeated efforts to be safe and self-sufficient, but there are many barriers—both external, such as limited resources or support; and internal, such as an emotional connection to their partner or a desire for their children to be with both parents— that makes this very difficult. But here’s the thing: This is absolutely the wrong question to be asking, as it implies that victims are responsible for ending violence. They aren’t. Instead, we should be asking what we can do to stop abusers from being violent and controlling. To find the domestic violence program in your community, visit wscadv.org or call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233 or 1-800-787-3224 (TTY).

School’s out but it’s still time to learn on Sequim tennis courts. US Tennis Association pro Don Thomas has Tennis Academy 2015, a summer tennis program for Sequim youth (ages 5-17), set for July 6-10. Classes run from 9 a .m.-noon each day and will be designed THOMAS for yo ut h who are non-beginners. The program includes some “classroom” time a s well a s d y n a m ic and static stretching, strength conditioning, agility training, stroke analysis and practice, advanced techniques, strategy and match playing time. “Classroom” time includes such subjects as history of tennis, rules of tennis, tennis safety, physical fitness, health/ injury issues and strategy — thus, the title “Tennis Academy 2015.” The one-week session is limited to 30 youths who will be considered on a first-come, first-served basis. Thomas said he does not anticipate any charge for the academy. Thomas also has a number of activities for Sequim tennis players, from Youth Tennis Ladder Play to youth individual and group lessons and youth tournaments, Cardio-Tennis For All (10 a.m. on Thursdays, all ages invited) and a USTA promotional event (also all ages; times and dates to be determined).

The accolades just keep coming for Sequim High School ace pitcher Tanner Rhodefer.

Rhodefer was named to the class 2A all-state second team after posting a 5-4 and leading the Wolves with a 2.63 earned-run average (per seven innings) and 64 strikeouts, working 61-and-a-third innings — more than double any other Sequim pitcher. Rhodefer, who also was named an all-Olympic League first team pitcher and was SHS’s second-leading hitter (.386 average), pitched Sequim to a win in the West Central District Tournament, helping the squad to the class 2A state tourney. Other Olympic League players named all-state players were North Kitsap pitcher Andrew Hecker, NK outfielder T.J. Jensen and North Mason pitcher/ infielder Daniel Burggraaf (2A first team), NK catcher Connor Green (2A second team) and Klahowya pitcher Jacob Gotchall (1A/B first team).

tocols that have shown benefits including the TABATA protocol developed by a Japanese researcher that calls for 20 seconds of intense work, followed by 10 seconds of recovery, repeated eight times for a 4-minute workout. I recommend getting help from a qualified fitness professional to safely implement this type of training selecting the correct low impact mode of activity along with the right protocol for your own individual fitness level. It can be used for all ages and fitness levels if done correctly. Q. I used to do the no-weight circuit machines at a women-only facility. I loved them, but I can’t find them now. A friend told me they are no good anyway. Is that true? Heidi’s answer: Sounds like you are referring to hydraulic or “fluid” resistance equipment for strength training. They are user-friendly

and joint-friendly. They are ideal for those new to resistance training and people with arthritis or anyone who wants to get in a quick resistance workout safely with little adjustment of machines. Similar machines at our facility recently were referred to as “push/ pull chairs” in an article in the Sequim Gazette. The reason some call them that is that you work two different sets of muscle groups on each machine — your pulling muscles in one direction and your pushing muscles in the other. Your friend is wrong. Fluid resistance workouts are safe and effective — more effective than pool workouts for strength and bone density, but still with no impact.

On June 9, the Grey Wolves Senior Softball Club tournament team The Crocs (pictured above) played in the Chip Cipriano/Norton Tournament held in Federal Way — a fundraiser for fighting cystic fibrosis. The Crocs played 1st American Title and Ruth Realty twice. The Crocs had two all-stars, John White and Norm Forney, both hitting well over .750 in the three games. The competition was a chance to tune up and get ready for the Washington State Senior Games, held in Shelton from July 11-12, and then — for their first time ever — The Crocs will head in October to St. George, Utah, to compete in The Huntsman Games. The event is the largest senior softball tournament in the nation, featuring more than 300 softball teams with competing athletes from about two dozen countries. Submitted photo

Sequim schools honor retiring staffers Retiring Sequim School District staffers were celebrated at a reception held June 15 after school in the high school library. Each retiring staff member was introduced to the audience by their building principal, presented with a framed certificate by board president Beverly Horan and a Sequim School District purple polo shirt by board director John Bridge. The reception, organized by Valorie Knieper, Karen Sande and Sonja Brown, was attended by school district staff and past retired staff. As is customary, many past retired staff wore their purple polo shirts to the reception. The 11 staff members retiring at the end of the 2014-2015 school year represent 189 years of service to the Sequim School District. Superintendent Kelly Shea thanked each of them for their years of service to the district and wished them well in their retirement.

The long ride home

ion

June 24, 2015 • B-7

SEQUIM GAZETTE

Vacations are wonderful. The toughest part, however, may be the ride home. You have had a great time and so have your kids but going home takes forever. That is true no matter how far it is. So what can you do to help make the ride easier, more fun and even seem shorter? The key is having a good time. What can you do to make it a good time? You need to plan ahead for activities for your children no matter what their ages. Bring along some goodies such as a piece of candy or gum, a drink, a small bag of popcorn and anything else you can think of to use for prizes. You can use these as incentives when you play some games. Some general things to bring include items like coloring books, reading books and music or even if you have the right equipment, movies the kids can watch. But don’t just do these kinds of things; do some things that are different. For young children you need to find something easy to do. If you are where there are animals, have them see how many they can count as they

drive past. Cows or horses are great. If there are a lot of them, then have them count the white ones or the single colored ones. If you are in an urban area, have them count red cars. Other ideas: • Stop at scenic spots and learn what is important about them. No matter what your children’s ages, they may learn something new. • Sing songs together. They don’t have to be the ones that only the children know. Let the parents sing some they know, too. • Check out the license plates and see what words your older child can make out of them. You need to do this with them to make it competitive. You also can go through the alpha-

bet and have your child find an item outside that begins with each letter. • Look ahead at something far in the distance but on the road you are driving. Everyone can guess how many miles to get there. See who is the best judge of distance. • Tell them before the trip that there is going to be a joke contest. Tell them to be prepared. On the trip have each person tell one joke and then vote on who has the funniest joke. • Ask some questions about places you were on the trip. Even if you spent the time with relatives, ask who they are, who they are related to and what the names are of each of their children (even if they weren’t there). • Talk about the trip. A parent can start it out about something he or she has learned or found out on the trip. Then ask the kids to join in. Ask them where they would like to go and what they would like to see on the next trip. It doesn’t have to be realistic; just let them dream. • Visit any museum you find. Stop at each exhibit and see if there is a question your child might answer about something he sees. When you

are back in the car, offer him a reward if he can answer your question. If he gets the right answer, he certainly will pay attention at the next museum or stop. If he doesn’t get the right answer, he may pay more attention at the next museum or stop. • In the last hour of the trip, ask him to write three paragraphs about the most important things he enjoyed on the trip. You will learn something about what he values and he will exercise his writing skills. Children remember trips you take as a family long after they remember where they went. You are a key as to why that happens. Put some effort into making your drive home a special time together. Plan ahead and have special things to do. Bring along things for them to do that they might never do when they are home. Spend the time together in ways they will remember for the rest of their lives. It is worth a little extra effort to make this happen. It makes the trip better for you as well as for them.

First Time

around, I’ve been working on taming her and getting her used to my presence. She isn’t afraid and doesn’t mind you being close, but she isn’t keen on the idea of being petted either – which is all I want to do. Everyday I fight the urge to pet my cow. My logic is if I continue to attach myself to Little Red instead of Hobart, it will make the deed of butchering Hobart in the coming years a bit easier.

From page B-1

Despite his lack of knowledge on what it takes to raise a cow, his positive response and enthusiasm was all I needed. Step 1: Research … a little more than just Google and YouTube. Step 2: Find a cow and buy it. Step 3: Successfully raise the cow. Step 4: Eat the cow. Step 5: Reflect and perhaps do it all over again.

Reflections

In the coming weeks I found myself at Clark Farms, a Sequim farm run by fifth-generation farmer Tom Clark and his wife Holly. The farm is operated with the intention to “provide nutritional, humane and environmentally conscious meat for their community,” according the website, and my observations have been nothing but consistent with that. Tom and Holly were supportive and entertained the idea of me raising a cow for consumption and were kind enough to allow me and Ralph into their home to discuss the “must knows” of doing just that. By the end of the Q&A sessions with the Clarks, Tom mentioned a young, pregnant cow he would be willing to sell. The plan had shifted from not only raising a cow (or more accurately a steer) for beef, but instead to owning a cow to produce calves for annual or biannual butcher. Tom took us out to see his herd of

cattle. They came flocking behind the truck that pulled a mountain of hay. We stopped and perched atop a towering stack of hay bales as Tom pointed out a little, red and very pregnant cow. Everyone has heard of love at first sight, well I’ve heard of it, too. I realize this wasn’t a tall, dark and handsome man walking my way, but instead a burping, drooling, methane-producing beast, but I loved her. I instantly dubbed her “Little Red.” Jumping ahead, skipping a few details and weeks of readying my horse pasture to also contain a cow, Tom delivered Little Red, who was no longer alone, but with a newly born dark brown bull calf glued to her side. After months of talking, thinking and preparing, Little Red was all mine and quickly adjusted to her new home. As for her calf, he

was and continues to be a walking definition of cute. Ralph and I were warned by everyone we talked to about raising beef to not name the calf intended for butchering. But, of course we couldn’t help but name him. Although Ralph nicknamed him “Meatball,” his true name, and the one I prefer to use, is Hobart. Interestingly enough, the majority of the work (thus far) in owning a cow and calf was in the preparation. Since Little Red and Hobart arrived, they really haven’t demanded much. Granted we haven’t had to attempt to wrangle them back into the pasture (knock on wood) or catch them for veterinary care, etc. Because Little Red isn’t halterbroke, meaning I can’t lead her

of “backseat” herding from either Ralph or myself, but we’ve seemed to have established a system. After successfully herding Little Red and Hobart into a small, enclosed area, I let Little Red out, but kept Hobart in the enclosure for the ease of catching. Just missing a swift kick from the calf, Ralph lunged at him and was able to grab him. Little Red made moo-noises and paced around the fence looking in at her calf now being tackled by both Ralph and myself. At two weeks old, Hobart was strong … shockingly strong. His strength was enough that some of my fears of a coyote that I spotted days prior faded. We managed to get a halter on Hobart and he somewhat calmed down while Little Red paced, called out and nervously drooled. Within a few minutes Ralph and I felt assured that we can in fact catch the calf when the time comes and we reunited mom and baby. To say the least, having the cows is a true learning experience. My bedside book has been replaced with the third edition of “Storey’s Guide to Raising Beef Cattle” and I can’t help but notice every pasture I drive by if there’s a cow. Regardless of the challenges, and the ones yet to come, my first time at attempting cow ownership has been all but disappointing. Instead, it’s been rewarding, fun and already an experience I’ll treasure for years to come.

A month into owning cows, Ralph and I are still confident we’ll be able to butcher Hobart, but I have no doubt it will be an emotional time. Until then however, I’ll just keep chanting “be practical, be practical, be practical …” Ralph’s and my first “calf catching” abilities were put to the test a couple of weeks ago in preparation for banding Hobart. Without going into detail, banding is one method of castrating a bull calf and involves a special Cheerio-sized, strong, thick rubber band. Before having a friend of mine with cattle experience come out and actually do the task of banding Hobart, Ralph and I wanted to be sure we could catch the seemingly little guy. Luckily, within the first two weeks of owning the cows, Ralph and I have practiced the art of herding them. Calmly we walk behind them, talk to them and in response, (often to our surprise) they do pretty well with going Reach Alana Linderoth at where we want. There was of course a learning curve and a lot alinderoth@sequimgazette.com.

BUDDY is an adorable 2 year old Dachshund/Chihuahua mix who loves to snuggle. He gets along well with large and small dogs as well as cats. Buddy walks ok on a leash, knows come and stay. He is not a barker and loves his people, please no small children. This fun little guy has lots of energy and loves to run and play, so a home with another small dog is a must and he will need a secure fenced yard.

BOO is a special little dog. He was mistreated, but enjoys attention once he knows he can trust you. He adores children, but because of his small size, children should be over 6. He gets along with cats as well as other dogs and would love a home with another dog for him to play with. He knows come, stay, sit and down. We are working on his potty training. He is about 90% accident free.

WILDER AUTO

Vehicle/RV/Camper/Motorcycle (Some restrictions may apply)

MANDY is looking for a quiet calm home, she is shy at first but warms up quickly. She is energetic and plays with her foster brother. She will need to have a fenced yard.

HANK is a wonderful golden/lab mix, 7-8 years young and very sweet. He loves people and especially would be best to be an only dog. He does love to play with other four legged friends, unless you are a cat. Hank is very gentle, loves car rides and going on adventures. He is looking for a home that will love him forever. Due to his size, I wouldn’t recommend very young children, is currently 98lbs.
