Housing village fundraising for residents with developmental disabilities begins Organizers set goal of $500K by Halloween

saic’s Housing & Good Life Committee set the goal to raise $500,000 by Oct. 31 to help purchase property possibly in Sequim that could host housing, classrooms, a multi-purpose room for Mosaic activities and an Alzheimer’s unit for some of the hundreds of developmentally disabled adults living on the Olympic Peninsula. Missy Rief, chairman of the Housing & Good Life Committee, said the facility could

Holes lined with grease in Sunshine Cafe’s grill hood led city officials to close down the restaurant’s grill due to safety concerns.

the public’s safety and welfare, which became unavoidable,” he said. “The remedy was going to take too long. We wanted to be sensitive and give them the ability to adjust the menu.” In the notice it states, “No food shall be prepared utilizing the appliances that are required to be protected by a Type 1 Hood and associated Fire Suppression System.” However, Drake said he didn’t want to open and only serve a portion of his menu and he understands the decision to close down the grill. “One spark could cause the place to burn down in a minute,” Drake said. “If there was a fire, there’s nothing behind the holes to protect this place from a fire.” Drake said his insurance company would only cover expenditures — including salaries of his seven employees — if there was a disaster like a fire. However, his employees are eligible for unemployment, he said. As for the business owners’ livelihood, Drake said the summer is their peak season. “This is our carry us through winter season.”

Olympic View Properties owner Brown M. Maloney, who owns Sunshine Cafe’s building, said he has committed to pay for the hood replacement as the cafe’s landlord and is contracting with Air Flo Heating Co. to replace the kitchen ventilation and stainless steel. Joel Berson, general manager of Air Flo, said the cafe reopening at the beginning of August is “a realistic goal.” Hugo said several other restaurants including the 7th Avenue Steakhouse, Elks Club, Moon Palace, Mariner’s Cafe and Paradise Restaurant all faced similar mandatory fire suppression system changes and they made the conversions. Moon Palace owner George Lee said the change cost him about $3,500. 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. Restaurant owners were given six months to replace the system because the fix was temporary. However, they too face a hood change that could cost more than $20,000 as estimated by other restaurants and fire officials. Fernando Lopez, co-owner of Las Palomas, said since he and his brothers own the building, they are responsible for repairs and the money will be hard to come up with to make the hood and fire suppression system replacements.

pose life safety, health and welfare issues for the owners, the Drakes, and the general public at large. Therefore, the hood and associated fire suppression system are declared to be a public nuisance and shall be abated by repair, rehabilitation, demolition or removal no later than July 24.” Drake and his wife, Dianne, met with city and fire officials on April 28 to discuss their options and were under the assumption they had until October to make the changes. However, Chris Hugo, City of Sequim director of community development, who oversees Hall, said the Drakes invited fire officials back on June 10 to see new discoveries by a fire suppression contractor who said the cafe’s hood and its duct work have holes in the metal that are saturated with grease. “The hood is not protecting the premises adequately,” Hugo said. “The conditions in the walls are just ripe for taking off from a fire. The potential for loss of property and life are too high.” The inspection of the cafe’s hood earlier this year was its first since 2013. City and fire officials noted last week in the story “Fire code enforcement leads to costly repairs for Sequim restaurants” that they are picking up inspections and enforcement more after several years of neglect. The City of Sequim contracts its fire inspections to Clallam County Fire District 3. Hugo said the Notice of Violation to the cafe was not a shut-down notice. “We have a duty to protect

The increasing fire risk tied to abnormally warm and dry weather conditions is igniting concerns statewide, including in Clallam County and Sequim. Typically, the fire season for Clallam County is from July through the end of September, but “all bets are off this year” as the season is getting an early start, Bryan Suslick, Olympic Region Fire District manager with Department of Natural Resources, said. “Clallam County has the highest existing risk of catastrophic losses in the event of a major wildfire in all of Washington and is fifth of 413 acres and continues to travel up steep terrain within the park.

Landoni gains Violet Richardson Award

Hailey Estes from Sequim recently was named to the Spring 2015 Dean’s List at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C. Students who achieve a 3.4 grade-point average and no grade below a “C” were named to the list.

Debra Beckett, left, represents the Sequim Middle School Science Club with award winner Katherine Landoni, right. The Violet Richardson Award is awarded to a girl in high school whose volunteer activities help to make the world a better place for women and girls. The award is named for a Soroptimist and honors the importance of volunteer service in improving the quality of life in the community. Landoni has worked as a math tutor and science mentor for the Sequim Middle School Science Club since her freshman year. As Science Club president, she organized fundraisers and helped young science students prepare for the annual Science and Engineering Fair. The students conducted original research, created display boards and competed against other students. “Because of my success in science and math, I have become an important model, tutor and mentor for the younger, female Science Club students,” Landoni said. She said she wants girls to understand that females can do an equal or better job in science and math than males. The award brings with it a check for $250 for the Sequim Middle Science Club and one for the same amount for Landoni in honor of her volunteering.

Clallam County elections department receives award The Clallam County Elections Department recently earned state-level recognition for successfully completing its emergency preparedness plan. The department formally was commended by the Office of the Secretary of State at an awards ceremony on June 10 during the 2015 Washington State Elections Conference in SeaTac. The pla n, known as a Continuity of Operations Plan, is designed to ensure that essential departmental functions and services such as conducting elections, holding candidate filing, and facilitating voter registration, continue during an emergency. It was developed by the c ou nt y ’s t hree - p er son Elec t ion s D ep a r t ment that includes Voter Registration Coordinator Julie Maxion, Elections Supervisor Ken Hugoniot and Elections Assistant Renee Mizar, along with Auditor Shoona Riggs. “In completing the (plan), our Elections Department is proactively participating in the countywide effort to develop emergency preparedness plans for all county offices,” Riggs said. “We are already building on this success by creating similar plans for each department within the Auditor’s Office as well.”

Their work has had a significant impact and also inspires and encourages other women. Soroptimists say Hoffman is such a woman. In 2007, Hoffman and her friend Judy PalumboGates approached Healthy Families of Clallam County inquiring about sponsoring a family for Christmas. They received generic information — one boy, a teen-aged girl, a mom — nothing that helped them select special presents based on the needs or desires of the individuals. Hoffman began Holiday Joy the following year. To make the program match individuals, Holiday Joy helpers make significant efforts to get more than 100 families (selected by the personnel of Happy Families) to fill out lists of desirable gifts, sizes and colors as well as a “dream present” for children and parents. Central to the program is a Family Day where schoolaged children would have a “store” with specific items for their moms (or dads). At the same event, moms or dads could pick out specific gifts for their children. Since Holiday Joy began in 2007: • 888 clients and children have been helped • $88,854.98 worth of presents has been given • More than 8,500 hours of community support have been donated. Soroptimist International of Sequim has participated in Holiday Joy since 2009.

Burn ban now in effect

Because of unusually dry weather conditions, a Clallam County burn ban took effect June 19 and will run through Oct. 1 unless conditions require the ban to be extended, officials from the county Department of Community Development said last week. The burn ban applies to all outdoor burning except recreational cooking fires. Recreational fires are permitted unless further banned by extreme conditions. Recreational fires are limited to 3 feet in diameter, 2 feet in height. Fires for debris disposal are not legal under any circumstances and are not considered recreational. If conditions arise, the restrictions may be upgraded to a High Fire Danger status; this prohibits all outdoor burning and includes recreational fires. An exception is within the Olympic National Park and other controlled campgrounds. The Clallam County Fire Marshal’s office strongly urges all county residents and property owners to be attentive to the conditions of their properties through fire prevention measures.

State burn ban

A burn ban is now in effect for all state-protected lands in Washington because of increasing fire danger. The state Department of Natural Resources on June 22 extended a burn ban to Western Washington, an order that includes the agency’s 371,000 acres on the Olympic Peninsula. The statewide ban runs through Sept. 30. The ban means all outdoor burning is prohibited in state forests, state parks and forestlands protected by the state agency. Recreational fires in approved fire pits within designated state, county, municipal and other campgrounds are still allowed, but fireworks and incendiary devices, such as exploding targets, are prohibited on all state lands protected by DNR.

WATER SAVING TIP OF THE MONTH In the Garden — WATER DEEPLY BUT INFREQUENTLY. If you do need to water your plants, soak the entire root zone. Don’t water again until the root zone has nearly dried up. Rather than using a sprinkler to irrigate everywhere, only apply water to individual plants. You can do this by hand or with drip irrigation hoses and emitters. Contact Clallam Conservation District if you need technical assistance.

VOLUNTEER CORNER

Sometimes Mistakes Happen for a Reason Volunteer Marilyn Cross serves as a concierge for the new Civic Center, even though she didn’t exactly “volunteer” for the position. Marilyn was contacted by Volunteer Coordinator Pamela Leonard-Ray by mistake when another woman named Marilyn inquired about the position. “It was meant for another person named Marilyn, but I thought it sounded interesting and something I would very much like to do, so I replied that I would come in the Civic Center Concierge Marilyn Cross following day as requested,” she said. When she met with Pam and City Clerk Karen Kuznek-Reese, she explained what happened, but that she would also be interested. And, as she said, “WhaLa — the rest is history.” Marilyn enjoys meeting with different people every day and helping them to find their way to whatever department they need. “Sequim has such an interesting variety of residents from everywhere that have made this their home. I enjoy meeting and talking with them and hearing their comments about the new City Hall, the artwork, and the plaza,” she commented. “For me, volunteering is two-fold. You help fill a position and service that otherwise wouldn’t be provided, and for the volunteer, it gives you purpose in your life which can help to fill a huge void when you retire; especially when you are used to being active and in the loop of life.” Oh, and the original Marilyn, she also accepted the position and volunteers as a concierge twice a week. More Concierge Positions Available If you are interested in volunteering to serve as a concierge for the Civic Center, or any position with the City, please contact Volunteer Coordinator Pamela Leonard–Ray at (360) 681-3447 or pleonard- ray@sequimwa. gov or City Clerk Karen Kuznek-Reese at (360) 681-3428 or kkuznek@ sequimwa.gov.

I am looking forward to applying the motivation and knowledge with my clients.”

Sequim Gazette

A new inn southwest of Sequim high in the Texas Valley evokes an aura of elegance, so it’s no surprise that innkeepers Yvonne and Chris Herr designed and built their dream business and named it Ambiance Bed & Breakfast. “The word ‘ambiance’ fit the best because of the description in the dictionary,” Chris said. “It definitely describes what we think we’re presenting — ‘the character and atmosphere of a place, the air, climate, mood, quality.’ Ambiance says it all for our 10-acre private retreat with a panoramic water view.” And what a water view it is from a spacious patio overlooking the SequimDungeness Valley and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, the lights of Victoria visible at night. The Herrs said they looked at more than 50 properties before settling on the mountain acreage and decided on new construction with Sequim builder Ron Robbins of Integrity Homes to get exactly what they envisioned. “We designed the house as a B&B and the guests have total privacy,” Yvonne said. “We’re big on that. The whole place is set up for privacy — the patio, the sunset deck and the secret garden. It’s a mini-retreat and the rooms are larger than usual B&Bs — the two suites are 450 and 380 square feet, so we’ll only have a maximum of four guests. We’re all about pampering — that’s why we’re unique.” The 3,500-square-foot inn has an airy

To support or oppose, that is the question Citizens mull proposition for SARC Metropolitan Park District at forum by ALANA LINDEROTH

Proposition 1

Sequim Gazette

Opinions widely vary on the creation of a new taxing district heading toward the primary election that includes a proposition for a SARC (Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center) Metropolitan Park District. “The question is not whether we should have a metropolitan park district, but it’s how one should be created,” Pat Johansen told an audience of about 100 attending a League of Women Voters’s public forum on June 28 centered on the SARC Metropolitan Park District ballot measure. Johansen, a longtime community activist and Bill Benedict, Clallam County sheriff, opened the forum with Johansen speaking against the measure and Benedict speaking in its support, followed by a Q&A session and a 3-minute introduction from each of the 12 candidates running for positions on the SARC Metropolitan Park District board. “This (SARC MPD) is the solution to keep SARC open and help keep people out of my system,” Benedict said. “SARC is vital to our community and its health. Without this measure passing, it will close.”

The measure for the SARC Metropolitan Park District is expected in impose a tax of 12 cents per $1,000 assessed property valuation within a boundary similar to the Sequim District school — roughly spanning from McDonald Creek east to Diamond Point Road and south to the Olympic National Park boundary. For an owner of a $250,000 home, the tax would cost about $30 per year. That estimate assumes however the five commissioners elected to govern the SARC Metropolitan Park District uphold the suggested 12 cent levy amount. Like all metropolitan park districts, the SARC Metropolitan Park District would have the ability to levy up to 75 cents per $1,000 assessed property valuation. This ability and whether there are any restrictions were shared concerns voiced from voters still pondering the proposed measure during the public forum. To assure responsible taxation and management of the SARC Metropolitan Park District, Benedict told voters during the forum to “elect the right people.” “If you elect the right candidates,” he said, “you can then

hold them accountable.” Twelve candidates differing in experiences are in the running for five commissioner positions that would be tasked with managing the new tax district if approved. Candidates are Bob Anundson, Gayle Baker, Rich Bemm, Fritz Gruetzmacher, Paul Gruver, Mike McAleer, Eckart Mildenstein, Dick Neal, Virginia O’Neil, Warren Pierce, Susan Sparks Smith and Ken Stringer. According to SARC officials, the facility covers 80 percent of its operating costs, but with dwindling reserves and no taxpayer support for the past 12 years, the facility is expected to close in December 2016 unless a funding strategy is secured. “The community forgot SARC started as and still is publicly owned,” Benedict said. “This is not a failure of the SARC board, but this is a failure of the community … it (SARC) needs that taxpayer support.” Commissioner candidate strategies to maintain SARC and achieve a balanced budget range from imposing no

As an alternative to the SARC Metropolitan Park District, Johansen resurrected the concept first suggested by Sequim city officials and unanimously supported by the city council in late April to postpone the creation of a tax district focused on SARC and instead pursue shortterm funding for SARC, like a one-year levy. Postponing the creation of the SARC MPD would allow more time for City of Sequim and SARC officials to collaborate with multiple local organizations, including the county commissioners to propose a broader metropolitan park district during the February 2016 election. “We are at a community crossroads,” Johansen said. “One way is a dead end and the other supports growth and imagination.” However, Benedict assured those at the public forum, “The county commissioners aren’t interested in an MPD.” Benedict further noted the tax amount needed to support a larger metropolitan park district would have to be much greater — an amount unlikely to be supported by the voters, he said. “I met with other board members and the city and never felt like we received a viable plan for another, larger MPD,” Pickering said. Thus, despite opposition from city officials and no guaranteed short-term financial security and a recent failure to pass a six-year levy in February’s special election, SARC officials opted to continue to support the creation of metropolitan park district during the primary election. If passed in August, the SARC Metropolitan Park District would become the 18th metropolitan park district within in Washington and the second on the Olympic Peninsula neighboring the William Shore Memorial Pool Park District in Port Angeles. Aug. 4 primary election ballots are mailed July 15.

If the SARC Metropolitan Park District proposition passes, the assets of the existing park and recreation district are transferred through an interlocal agreement between the SARC board and the new SARC Metropolitan Park District board, Craig Miller, attorney for SARC, said. Until the transfer of assets from Clallam County Park and Recreation District 1 to the SARC Metropolitan Park District, the current SARC Board of Commissioners maintains some control, Frank Pickering, the board’s chairman, told the Gazette during a previous interview. “If anyone thinks this board will turn over assets to someone who’s going to tax 3 cents and let SARC close or 75 cents for that matter, they’re wrong,” he said. Among the powers of a park and recreation district, like SARC under Clallam County Park and Recreation District 1 first formed in 1962, are the “powers as are necessary to carry out the purpose for which they are created, including, but not being limited to, the power: (1) To acquire and hold real and personal property; (2) to dispose of real and personal property only by unanimous vote of the district commissioners …,” according to RCW 36.69.130. Once an agreement is met and assets are transferred, the SARC Board of Commissioners is expected to dissolve. “I think the people that run for public office in this community stand tall for what they say, but the issue is a MPD is a difficult, complicated and extremely powerful

tax and relying on alternative funding methods such as grants, fundraising, increased membership fees and volunteers to implementing the proposed tax of 12 cents per $1,000 assessed property valuation. Throughout the public forum no candidate running indicated a tax amount more than the proposed 12 cents, but instead most mentioned creating bylaws and/or a charter to limit the ability to levy without a super majority among the commissioners or public approval.

ELECTIONS 2015

2 schools, 1 parks candidate withdraw Candidates will still appear on Aug. 4 primary Sequim Gazette staff

With the August primary a little more than a month away, three candidates pulled their hats from the competition early on. Two school board candidates — Rebecca Bratsman and Willard Naslund for Sequim School District position No. 1, and Bill Wrobel for the proposed SARC Metropolitan Park District commissioner position No. 2 — either told the Gazette or wrote in their Clallam County candidate statement they don’t plan to campaign. Clallam County Auditor Shoona Riggs said Bratsman and Naslund contacted her after the withdrawing period and still will appear on the Aug. 4 primary ballot. “By law, I can’t take them off the ballot,” Riggs said. She said they can write about withdrawing from their races in their candidate statement but not endorse other candidates. Bratsman and Naslund were running against Robin Henrikson and incumbent Heather Jeffers for the 4-year term. Jeffers was appointed to the position last August. Two of the four will advance to the Nov. 3 general election. Naslund said he “withdrew from the school board candidacy because I have a health issue that may not allow me to provide adequate energy to a job that needs full time dedication.” Bratsman said she withdrew after meeting with Henrikson and realized quickly they have a lot of similar views on the school district. “Having two very similar candidates wouldn’t have given enough choice to the voters I felt,” she said. “I think that Robin would give a fresh perspective to the district while I turn my attention to serving the public in other ways.” Elections Supervisor Ken Hugoniot said Wrobel, running against Ken Stringer for the proposed parks district board 6-year term, did not contact them during the withdrawing period but informed them through his candidate statement that reads, “I am no longer a candidate for commissioner, comments follow.” He could not be reached for comment. In 2013, Sequim School Board candidate John Yeo attempted to have his name taken off the ballot after the filing period unsuccessfully despite efforts contacting local and state leaders. County auditors previously held that ability until state laws changed it. Riggs said the only instance in which a candidate could be taken off the ballot after the deadline is if he or she is running unopposed and dies before the election.

persons at the house on April 16 and liquefied heroin from a third person on April 17. Morgan was present and asked the informant to buy $40 of heroin for him which was recorded, Knutson reports. Morgan was arrested for alleged unlawful use of a building for drug purposes and faces up to five years in jail and/or a $10,000 fine. When Morgan was arrested, law enforcement found heroin in his possession and he faces Class C felony charges. Morgan told Knutson he knows people that come in and out of his house are drug users and that on occasion he purchases heroin from persons at his house. Law enforcement found heroin in Morgan’s bedroom and about 2.5 grams of meth in Starks’ and Marienau’s bedroom. Knutson reports Morgan said he uses about 0.1 grams of heroin every other day because “Satan” is after him. Nearby firefighters told Knutson, he reports, that they responded to drug overdoses and/or infections from intravenous drug use at Morgan’s residence. Since Jan. 1, law enforcement responded to the residence at least 50 times for multiple events from warrant arrests to domestic violence to property crime investigations to stolen vehicle reports.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Vote no on SARC MPD I have just finished reading the SARC article of June 24 authored by Mr. James Gillen (Sequim Gazette, June 24, page A-10). I wish to say I agree with him 100 percent! I can never understand why anyone would ever be asked to support a facility such as SARC knowing that they could not or would not ever use it. Something like that is called socialism and the last I heard we do not live in a socialistic state. This facility should be 100-percent supported by the people who use it. Any homeowner voting for the Aug. 4 SARC referendum should have their checkbook handy to pay an additional tax burden of 75 cents per $1,000 (assessed valuation). This is the amount the local Metropolitan Park District could increase to every homeowner if the Aug. 4 referendum is passed. I’m voting no on SARC on Aug 4. Jim Ellis Sequim

Vote yes on SARC prop I urge all registered voters to vote “yes” for Proposition 1 to keep the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center open. This amazing asset to our community contributes to our quality of life and our home values. Unlike any of the gyms or fitness centers in town, SARC’s role has been to serve the entire intergenerational community in a variety of ways. This type of facility cannot survive on entry fees alone. Over the past 22 years that I have been a SARC user, I have watched babies learn to swim; seen youth practice and compete; observed adults working out and playing indoor sports together; marveled at the many seniors staying in shape and/or rehabilitating themselves after joint replacement or other health issues; and met dozens of youths who have trained as lifeguards and worked there through high school and college. I have enjoyed working out and swimming at SARC, taking classes and working with a personal trainer and even celebrating my birthday there with friends! Where else will our community find these benefits? The investment of 12 dollars per year per $100,000 (assessed) home value is a vote for health and fitness in our community. Whether you use the Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center or not, this is the kind of facility that communities all over the country wish for. We already have it, so let’s support it. If this vote fails, SARC will close in 2016. In my opinion, that would be a crying shame. Betty Oppenheimer Sequim

Taxpayers should not subsidize SARC I was out of the U.S. during the past winter and did not vote in the Feb. 10 election. However, via the Internet, I was relieved to learn that SARC’s proposed property tax levy failed to pass. The actual results (57 percent in favor) surprised me because almost everybody I’d talked to was opposed to the proposed levy. It seems this is an example of a special interest group’s relatively large participation when a subsidy for them is at stake. They support it “in force” while the population at large is much less involved — human nature at work. Upon returning to Sequim, it was a shock to learn that SARC hadn’t given up. Rather, they’ve managed to get a “proposition” onto the Aug. 4 ballot. This proposition would create a new district with powers to own, operate and finance park and recreation facilities. The proposed district’s purpose is to acquire all assets from SARC. To subsidize the operation of these assets, the committee recommends a tax levy of 12 cents per year per $1,000 of assessed valuation. However, the district would have the power to levy a tax of up to 75 cents per year per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Even more shocking is that a simple majority will pass this proposition! It’s illogical that a 60 percent majority is required to pass a tax levy while only 50 percent is required to create this new bureaucracy capable of taxing without requiring voter approval — maybe somebody can explain the logic. The true burden of these taxes will be more than may first appear. In addition to a person’s direct property tax, the “indirect tax” will be much greater. Following are examples: • For people renting their homes, your landlord certainly will pass on his property tax increase

Time to reflect on our values As we celebrate our nation’s birthday on the Fourth of July, perhaps we should do some reflecting about our nation, especially as we consider last month’s murder of nine black citizens in South Carolina. Our forefathers declared, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty Guest and the pursuit of HapO pinion piness.” But in our Constitu- John Burbank tion, many of these same founders declared slaves to be worth three-fifths of a free person, enabled the importation of slaves for the next 20 years and established the right of slaveholders to track down and recapture slaves who had fled to northern states. These same founders were slaveholders themselves: Thomas Jefferson and George Washington each owned hundreds of slaves. Southern slaveholders won 12 of the first 16 elections for U.S. President. Slavery was marbled into our culture and country. Indeed, racism lurks in the foundation of our very buildings, from the plantation house featured on the state of South Carolina’s website to the U.S. Capitol, both built with the labor of slaves. Abraham Lincoln reflected on the Civil War in his second inaugural address: “Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled by the bondsman’s two hundred and fifty years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said ‘The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.’” But the lash, the bullet and the gun are still leveled at blacks. And while the Civil War gave us emancipation, just two decades later the white power structure took over the South through intimidation, terror and violence. One hundred years later, when the Civil Rights Movement overturned legal segregation and enabled blacks to vote, whites fought back, with blind obeisance to the Confederate flag. Finally that flag is coming down. But this is not just about the Confederate flag. On the

steps of the Alabama capitol, there is a gold star where Jefferson Davis took the oath of office for the Confederacy. In South Carolina, state offices close every May 10 for Confederate Memorial Day to honor Confederate Gen. “Stonewall” Jackson and Confederate President Jefferson Davis, who, like Washington and Jefferson, also owned over 100 slaves on his plantation in Mississippi. Racism is not just a historical artifact from the South. It is a national disgrace, at the doorstep of white Americans, across our country. We have an economic and legal structure that systematically deprives African Americans of equal opportunity. This institutional racism reinforces, and is reinforced by, poverty, the school-to-prison pipeline, the enforced discrimination of the war on drugs, the hopelessness of life confronting a young African American as wages stagnate, tuition rises, jobs are exported and doors close. We are far from the promise of the founders, that all are created equal, that all have the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. In our state, black citizens are six times more likely to be incarcerated and lose their right to vote than whites. The net worth of white households is 13 times the net worth of black households. Among fourth-graders, only 50 percent of low-income African Americans are reading at grade level. Onethird of African-Americans don’t graduate from high school. So the question before us is not merely that symbol of oppression, the Confederate flag. It is even more than the terrorist act of murder, motivated by racial hatred, in Charleston. We must consider the acceptance and, indeed, the cultivation of an economic underclass across our country. A lesson from the South is that when workers are divided from each other by racial prejudice, and when workers are prevented from organizing together into unions — and the two go hand-in-hand — all workers’ wages suffer, as do their children. The typical wage in South Carolina is less than $15. Over 27 percent of children live in poverty in South Carolina. Black lives matter. And all of our lives matter when black lives matter.

While wildfire danger may be more dependent on precipitation than snowpack levels, as one fire official told me recently, drought conditions are hurting our chances of getting through the summer without serious threat of fire. Washington officials expect 2015 to be a record year for wildfires, with high temperatures and sparse rainfall throughout the state. “I’m concerned that this is going to be another devastating fire season,” Peter Goldmark, state commissioner of public lands, said recently, making a point to mention the possibility of wildfire issues on the west side of the state along with the 200-plus fires the state is fighting in Eastern Washington.

No bailout for SARC

I attended a recent League of Women Voters SARC Forum at our wonderful Sequim Shipley Center. Exceptional property owner turnout for yet another important fight against the never-ending insatiable public tax dollar mongers. The larger majority in attendance, thankfully, were against the proposed MPD and another ridiculous property tax added to the property tax pile growing exponentially … for miserably failed SARC to be bailed out forever by we property tax victims. Your sheriff (Bill Benedict), speaking for the the “Save SARC” proponents, would have all district property owners fund yet another social program for saving juvenile delinquents at SARC … when truthfully, it is the responsible parents who should be held totally accountable for that, rather than taxpayers! SARC management has failed

City planners misguided Re: Proposed 2015 Sequim Comprehensive Plan: I applaud the Sequim Association of Realtors and President Karen Pritchard’s recent column in the Sequim Gazette (a paid advertisement, June 24 edition, page A-8) regarding the proposed 2015 Sequim Comprehensive Plan. The points iterated were pure common sense, which seems to be in short supply lately. The proposed plan states, “Loops and cul-de-sacs do not connect or feel “small-town friendly” like regular blocks in a grid do.” Balderdash! Almost every home in which I have lived was situated on a culde-sac. Cul-de-sacs are much more conducive to knowing your neighbors and socializing and allowing children to play in a more protected

Don’t just be aware, be involved

omestic violence affects every one of us. In Washington State, 43% of women and 28% of men have experienced rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner at some point in their lives. It is incredibly prevalent. But you probably already know this. Awareness about domestic violence has grown significantly over the years. That’s a great thing and it needed to happen. But we can’t stop there. Now that people are aware, we need them to act and be a part of the solution. So what can you do? • Learn about the resources available. Help is out there: free, confidential, 24 hours a day. Anyone can call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-SAFE for information, support, and to get connected to a local domestic violence program. Contact your local program today and learn about the support available in your neighborhood, so when someone turns to you for help, you’ll be ready. • If someone tells you they are in an abusive relationship, offer to connect them to a domestic violence advocate at their local program. Advocates can help them learn about the range of options available and plan for how to stay as safe as possible. Stay connected, listen, and don’t judge. People need to know they can talk about abuse and that they will be heard, supported and offered help. • Because of how prevalent domestic violence is, it can be assumed that in any neighborhood there is someone that is in an abusive relationship. Rather than trying to figure out how to identify who is being abused, put brochures or contact information for the local domestic violence program in common areas in your community. This allows people to privately and confidentially get help. It also conveys the important message that this happens to a lot of people and survivors of abuse should not feel alone. • Take a stand against domestic violence and raise money for domestic violence prevention by participating in the Goodwill Refuse To Abuse® 5K at Safeco Field.

Celebrate the Fourth with city band

As they have for years, residents of Sequim and the surrounding area have yet another splendid opportunity to celebrate the Fourth of July in a festive, patriotic fashion. On Saturday the Fourth, I urge you to bring your lawn chairs, a bit of sunscreen and come on down to the James Center for the Performing Arts. There, at 3 p.m., you’ll be treated to a free concert by the remarkable Sequim City Band. This talented group of musicians under the direction of Tyler Benedict, will once again be performing marches by John Philip Sousa and other composers that’ll have you tapping your toes – and with a smile on your face. There have been many times when I’ve referred to the Sequim City Band as “a Clallam County treasure.” I say that, because it surely is. C’mon down and check them out. See if I’m right.

• For people with homes in mobile parks, the landowner will pass on his property tax increase • For everyone, cost of goods and services (purchased within the taxing district) will increase in order to cover the increased business expenses When voting on the Aug. 4 ballot, I ask all residents to reflect on what their true tax burden may be. Furthermore, consider the businesses that SARC competes with. It is unfair that these businesses’ property taxes are increased in order to subsidize SARC. According to statements by SARC officials, the existing membership dues and user fees cover 85 percent of SARC’s expenses. In other words, a 20-percent increase in revenue should eliminate the need for a subsidy. From my observations, the typical SARC user appears quite affluent. SARC should be able to successfully operate without taxpayer subsidies. Why subsidize SARC?

Medal of Honor Highway signs honor veterans’ key sacrifices Agnew’s Anderson among four to receive honors by MICHAEL DASHIELL

Sequim Gazette

More than seven decades after his death in the service of his country, Private First Class Richard Beatty Anderson has another high honor for his sacrifice. A four-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 101 is now a Medal of Honor Highway, in recognition of Anderson and three other Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, after gaining approval from state legislators in April. The legislation, sponsored by Sen. Jim Hargrove (D-Hoquiam), honors each veteran with his own mile near the Clallam-Jefferson county line. “Honoring the sacrifice these men made for their country is one small way of saying thank you,” Hargrove said. “This stretch of highway will help our community remember the service of these courageous Americans.” Olympic Peninsula resident Gerald Rettela has helped spearhead the effort to see the highway gets the designation. “After serving in the military, I knew that it was so important to recognize those who have sacrificed,” he said. Rettela, who served in the Korean War as a staff sergeant from 1953-1956, has been an advocate for veterans of all branches of the U.S. armed services before his move to Washington in 2004. He led efforts to establish the Korean War Memorial Highway (state Highways

Hargrove; he thought it was a good idea,” Rettela said. Rettela said the original idea was to name Highway 19 — one that connects Highways 104 and 20 in Jefferson County — after the Medal of Honor recipients. As it turned out, Dick Bennett, husband of Marvin Shields’ widow Joan Shields Bennett, was leading an effort to have part of Highway 101 named in honor of Shields. Not long after Rettela gave Jefferson County commissioners a proposal for the Highway 19 honor, the two met and changed courses slightly. Now, family and friends can find recognition of those four veterans on Highway 101 — not a common honor, Rettela said. “Very rarely can you put (something like this) on a federal highway,” he said. “They wanted to have

construction occurs within wetlands. If permits are granted, construction is expected to begin in 2016.

Enhancing habitats The ecological function of three types of habitat, including beach, salt marsh and the lower portion of Meadowbrook Creek are anticipated to be improved following the completion of the project. Meadowbrook Creek is the last freshwater tributary to the Dungeness River; thus providing “essential rearing habitat for out-migrating Dungeness River salmon,” according to the project overview. Like the creek, all habitat types targeted by the project “serve key ecological roles,” Benjamin said. For example, small forage fish and juvenile salmon seek refuge in areas like salt marshes, which also provide a wide array of food. Salt marshes are the “buffet” of

the sea, she said. The site, located just east of the mouth of the Dungeness River, was an ideal candidate for restoration given the “Dungeness River is one of the highest ranked watersheds” for Puget Sound chinook, Benjamin said. Puget Sound chinook are listed as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. The species’s status is reflected with a mere 500 forecasted to return to the Dungeness River this year. Additionally, “there are several major, human-created problems in the project footprint that have led to degraded nearshore and wetland habitat and impaired ecosystem processes,” Kevin Long, North Olympic Salmon Coalition project manager, wrote in the shoreline application submitted to the county.

He next joined his last unit, Company E, 2nd Battalion, 23rd Marines, and with his unit he left the United States in January 1944. The following month he landed on Roi Island in the Marshall Islands. (Roi Island was the first pre-war Japanese territory to fall to Marines.) Anderson was hunting enemy snipers. He hurled himself on a live grenade in a shell hole to save the lives of three fellow Marines though he knew death for himself was almost certain. He was evacuated to a ship, where he died of his wounds on Feb. 1, 1944. He is buried at the New Tacoma Cemetery in Tacoma. He posthumously received the Medal of Honor — the nation’s highest military decoration — and the Purple Heart. In 1945, the United States Navy destroyer USS Richard B. Anderson (DD-786) was named in his honor. On Sept. 2, 2008, the Port Angeles Federal Building was renamed the “Richard B. Anderson Federal Building” in his honor. During the renaming ceremony, a letter written by Harry Pearce was read; Pearce was one of the three men that Anderson had saved.

Solar energy captures interest in Sequim Clallam PUD adjusting for steady expansion by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Transitioning to solar for meeting energy needs is a steadily growing trend in Clallam County. Unlike many counties in Washington, both Clallam and Jefferson are exceeding the state goal for net metering systems of one-half of 1 percent of their utility’s peak demand. “Clallam is up to 184 gridintertied customers of their 29,000 accounts,” Jeff Randall, solar agent for Power Trip Energy, said. “That may not seem like a lot, but it’s a big success from where we were.” The Olympic Peninsula has one of the highest percentages of solar electric systems per capita, according to Clallam PUD officials. Instead of simply pursuing solar electric, also referred to as photovoltaic (PV) systems, as a method of “going green,” Doug Nass, Clallam County PUD general manager, said, in Washington it also can be cost effective. “It’s becoming more popular especially in this state because of all the incentives,” he said.

Incentives The cost to install a solar electric system typically ranges between $2,500$3,000 per kilowatt after tax credits, but to help offset the costs there are several state and federal incentives, Andy Cochrane, Power Trip Energy president and founder, told those attending the 10th annual Clallam County solar tour June 20. “Most residential installations are between 7 and 10 kilowatts,” he said. “That usually covers about 30 to 100 percent of the person’s annual electricity needs.” However, once an approved solar electric system is installed in Clallam County, the system owner and Clallam PUD enter into a netmetering agreement. The agreement allows unneeded electricity produced by the solar system to return to the grid for credit given by the utility. Additionally, Clallam PUD is participating in a state program through 2020. The Inspired Program targets resident ratepayers pursuing solar, wind and/or biomass energy production. Clallam PUD has an overall cap of 1 percent of the its taxable revenue to disperse to those enrolled in the program by providing a 12-cent to 54-cent incentive per kilowatt hour produced by the alternative energy source. The program has an individual limit of $5,000. Through June 2018, solar electric systems less than 10 kilowatts in size are exempt

Andy Cochrane, president and founder of Power Trip Energy, shows those participating in Clallam County’s 10th annual solar tour the necessary equipment needed when capturing solar energy with a grid-intertied system.

Waves of people interested in solar energy attended the Clallam County Solar Tour Saturday, June 20, that began at the home of Sequim residents Jeanie and Glenn Robards who have a 9.81 kilowatt solar electric system. Sequim Gazette photos by Alana Linderoth

from state sales tax. Lastly, until the end of next year a 30-percent federal tax credit is available for residential solar electric systems. “If you’ve been thinking about installing one of these systems, now is a good time because I don’t expect these kind of incentives to be around again,” Cochrane said. “You’re hedging against the rising cost of energy.”

Increasing interest Officials with Power Trip Energy, a solar system installation company based in Port Townsend, have installed 450 grid-tied systems since 2003 in Kitsap, Jefferson and Clallam counties, equating to more than 2 megawatts of power. Until September, Power Trip Energy is scheduled for two installations a week, Cochrane said. “We’ve been growing consistently by 20-40 percent annually, which is in alignment with the overall state growth,” he said. In primarily interacting with those interested in pursuing solar electric for an alternative power source, Randall thinks the movement toward solar in the area partially can be attributed to the growing number of California transplants. “They’re already familiar with the technology and know it works,” he said. The increasing interest in solar also may be a reflection of the type of person that is drawn to living on the Olympic Peninsula. “Residents here seem to have more of an overall connection with the outdoors,” Randall said. “There’s also the whole concept of the blue hole.” The increasing cost of electricity is another reason many look to alternative energy sources, like solar. “Just look at the river conditions right now,” Randall said. Given environmental factors, such as the statewide drought, Randall questions Bonneville Power Administration’s ability to continue to provide affordable hydropower to its customers.

Growing pains While solar continues to be a growing power source, Clallam PUD officials are tasked with balancing the onset of the alternative energy, state regulations and the utility’s existing infrastructure and mode of operation. Taking steps to prepare for the potential impacts of more individuals producing their own electricity while remaining tied to the grid, the Clallam PUD Board of Commissioners unanimously approved updates to the district’s interconnection requirement policy Monday, June 29. The Clallam PUD historically has allowed a location waiver for the required AC disconnect (a safety device intended to isolate the inverter from the grid) in the case of remote pedestals, but among the recently approved policy changes, one change eliminates that waiver option. “Due to the steady expansion of net metering on our system, the proximity waiver for remote pedestals is beginning to have a substantial and growing negative impact on overall system reliability due to the extra time it takes linemen to locate and isolate net meter sources at remote disconnects,” John Purvis, Clallam PUD engineering manager, said. The AC disconnect requirement could cost future solar electric system users $1,500 to $2,000 for installation. However, Purvis, noted the disconnect requirement also could be met on the utility side of the meter, which could lower the cost to about $600 for the typical customer. “We understand any additional costs to solar are maybe unfair, but it’s also important to us to maintain our reliability,” Ted Simpson, Clallam PUD commissioner, said. Although the technology doesn’t exist to take immediate action, another policy change requires current and future net-meter generators to be prepared to implement

PUD, it makes it look like solar is getting harder to do and we’d like everybody to get this kind of system,” Robards said referring to his own solar electric system. The Robards installed a 9.81 kilowatt solar electric system on their Sequim home about a year ago. The system produces about half of the Robards’ yearly electricity needs and maintains their electric car. “It’s not my style to go out in a kayak and protest a Shell Oil rig, but instead I like do something more proactive,” Robards said. However, with “no crystal ball” to predict the future trend and technology associated with solar, Nass said, Clallam PUD officials have to do the best they can. “I think this is the best approach for now and going forward,” he said.

an enhanced inverter. Despite the lack of technology, managing “feeder saturation” is a “major topic within the utility industry,” Purvis said. Already utility officials in California are discussing how to best control the increasing number of individual small-scale gridintertied systems. “The only way to ensure system stability and acceptable voltage control into the distant future with ever-increasing net metering production is the eventual integration of net-meter and utility control systems and/or the implementation of enhanced inverter,” according Clallam PUD staff’s recommendation for the policy change. Because Washington, in-

cluding Clallam County’s solar electric production, is nowhere near the amount of places like Hawaii or Germany, Randall argues these policy changes are premature. “These provisions seem to be based on a ‘what if’ scenario that does not exist, namely what if solar PV systems were causing problems with grid reliability,” Randall wrote in a letter to the Clallam PUD commissioners. “Also, since the equipment referred to in the standards is not yet commercially available and there is no way to know its reliability or cost, implementing this provision now seems premature.” Established solar electric system owners such as Glenn and Jeanie Robards are grandfathered in, but still Glenn Robards is concerned with the “perception” Clallam PUD officials are putting out. “As a customer of Clallam

there is something going on with these animals.”

From page A-1 King said they were taken to a rescue because of the low level of sanitation inside their pen where two animal carcasses were found buried. Other animals they inspected including a dog, chickens, quail, pigs and rabbits were found in adequate health at the time, King said. Prior, Dashti was given multiple warnings regarding animal care in the past month. “The investigation ramped up recently because of deteriorating conditions and it just wasn’t improving,” King said. “Every time we spoke with him it was implied he’d comply but when we would go there he wasn’t compliant.” Sara Penhallegon, director of the animal rescue, told deputies during the inspection that the donkeys’ nails may not have been trimmed before or not for a long time. Local interest recently piqued regarding Dashti’s animals on Craigslist when a neighbor made multiple allegations against him, posting photos of animal carcasses around Dashti’s property. Some of the allegations state he let animals starve, freeze and kill/eat one another.

Pig found dead On Monday, June 29, deputies reported to Dashti’s property to investigate a dead 100-pound pig. King said they obtained another search warrant and seized the rest of the animals except for a few free-range chickens they were unable to capture. “Our thinking was that there’s another animal found dead and we need to get to the bottom of this,” he said. A necropsy performed on

the pig revealed it was fed and watered and doesn’t initially appear to be dehydrated, King said. Deputies expect a report on the pig and other animals’ health in about a week. “The pig adds another element and we’re going to have to wait and see what’s the deal with this animal,” King said. “Maybe there’s an explanation we’re not aware.” “Hopefully, it gives us a much better understanding and a definite reason why the pig died,” Kellas said. Kellas said Dashti requested a necropsy to prove he hadn’t done anything wrong. However, he told deputies he didn’t know about the pig’s death but later said he did know, she said. Because Dashti didn’t report the pig, Kellas said “that indicated to us he’s not

grasping the amount of care you need to pay attention to when someone’s else’s life is in your hands.” Dashti said he isn’t hiding anything and that some of the animals were killed when tree branches fell on

them during last winter’s storm that flooded his property. He also said something in grass clippings from a neighbor’s yard killed another animal. Prior to law enforcement’s arrival to first seize his ani-

mals, Dashti said he put the carcasses in a bag. Dashti said he kept some carcasses because a Seattle company buys them for $60$80 each. King said Dashti told law enforcement he’s kept the carcasses as collections and for research, too. The three carcasses (goat and sheep) had been there a long time, Kellas said, and they don’t know why. “There won’t be any criminal charges for the carcasses,” she said. “There’s nothing we can prove one way or another but when the pig died we wanted to see if

Starting May 31, Dashti served 12 days in jail for driving on a suspended license. On June 1, Kellas said Dashti’s partner Barb Herrera, who used to live on the property, told deputies she wanted to give the animals away but Kellas told her she needed to care for the animals. In that discussion, Herrera told deputies about the donkeys’ feet, which led Kellas to investigate further where she found the animals were fed and watered. However, neighbors said they’ve been calling law enforcement about Dashti’s actions for years. “This place has changed so much,” Maria Belair said of the property. Dashti is a former contractor who operated under the name Dashti Construction and said he’s been planning to turn his home into a park and begin a mobile catering company. He said many of the animals on his property he raises for food and lives off of disability checks, which he spends most of his money on the animals. King said Dashti voluntarily gave up several guns, which Dashti claims he only owns for self-defense from local animals such as cougars. Dashti said he’s going to seek to get his animals back. “Without reasonable doubt of course I will,” Dashti said. “I feel good about it so that they know (the truth). It gets everything out in front.” King said they are awaiting more in-depth health analysis on all the animals before sending charges against Dashti to the Clallam County Prosecutor’s Office.

Zombies to take over Children’s Theatre’s ‘Alice’ Olympic Theatre Arts will hold auditions for its first all Children’s Theatre production, “Alice in Zombieland,” written by Craig Sodaro and directed by Danny Willis and Bonne Smith. The script calls for a flexible number of actors, both male and female. The directors intend to find a place in the show for all those who

audition whether it be on stage or behind the scenes as stage crew. The story is about Alice, who is now a teen returning to Wonderland only to find all of the characters have been turned into zombies by the Wicked Witch of the West from Oz! The story offers a very creative mixing of elements from two classic stories

and some hilarious stage action from a host of zombies. Auditions are open to children ages 8-18. Willis, who has been working with many children in theater workshops at OTA and Port Angeles, said, “There is a lot of talent and a lot of interest from the children in our area for performing arts and especially drama. These

kids take it very seriously, they work hard and are very supportive of each other. Of course, they love to laugh too! And we do have a lot of fun.” Auditions will be at 4 p.m. Monday-Tuesday, July 6-7, at Olympic Theatre Arts Center, 414 N. Sequim Ave. The directors will have candidates read from the play’s script and

complete an audition form. Rehearsals will begin July 10 and continue until the show opens on the Olympic Theatre Arts Main Stage. The three shows are at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 7-8 and 2 p.m. Aug. 9. For more information, contact the OTA business office, which is open 1-5 p.m., Monday-Friday, at 683-7326.

July is typically the start of the summer drought with no significant rain expected for the next 45 to 60 days. Water early in the morning or late in the afternoon to minimize water loss caused by evaporation. If plants are wilted, water immediately. Water slowly and long enough to soak root zones. Consider providing drip irrigation on a timer to hanging baskets and containers. All new plantings should be watered two to three times a week, even if they are “drought tolerant.” Always water plants before adding fertilizer. Apply two to three inches of mulch to garden beds to hold in moisture and discourage weeds.

nutrients from frequent watering. •Bulbs, Corms, Rhizomes and Tubers: Divide and transplant crowded spring-blooming bulbs and rhizomes if flowering has declined. Fertilize dahlias monthly. •Lawns: Water deeply once a week to keep lawn green or let lawn go dormant by watering once a month. Mow regularly to prevent weed seed spread. Leave clippings behind if they are not too tall or weedy. Do not fertilize the lawn during hot, dry weather. Do not start a lawn from seed now; sod may be laid if you are willing to water it. • Perennials: Stake tall plants such as lilies, dahlias and delphiniums. After lilies have bloomed, cut the stalk to just below the lowest flower, the remaining stem and leaves produce energy for next year’s flowers. Harvest lavender as the buds show color, but before they open. Prune off about 3 inches from the growing tips of chrysanthemums to produce fuller and studier fall plants. Do not fertilize roses after July. • Shrubs and Trees: If needed, prune spring-blooming trees and shrubs including forsythia, kerria, pieris, azalea, rhododendron, lilac and viburnum.

erect and semi-erect blackberries reach 4 feet high, top them. Continue organic fertilizer regimen for blueberries (1 Tablespoon fish emulsion in 1 cup water per bush) at beginning of month. (No ammonium sulfate in July.) Cover fruiting plants with netting to protect harvest from birds and other wildlife. • Fruit trees: Thin plums to 2-4 inches apart on a branch; thin apples and pears to 1-2 fruits per cluster spaced 6-8 inches apart on the branch. Support fruit tree branches that are heavily loaded. Remove watersprouts and suckers from fruit trees. • Vegetables: Remove finished crops; replenish soil with compost. For a fall/winter garden, sow broccoli, carrots, onions, parsley, and peas by mid-July and bush beans, beets, kale and lettuce by the end of July. Stop watering garlic as it naturally starts to dry and harvest when four or five leaves are still green. Gather and dry herbs. Watch tomatoes for late blight and immediately remove infected leaves and fruit including those that have fallen from the plant. It may be necessary to remove the entire plant.

Concert: Teamsters and Turtles tour make Sequim stop Donations support Olympic Climate Action group

Olympic Climate Action benefit concert When: 7 p.m., Monday, July 6 Where: Olympic Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, 73 Howe Road Cost: Admission by donation More info: olyclimate.org

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Two iconic voices long heard singing on social justice, environmental, political and labor issues are coming to Agnew while touring through Washington and Oregon. Anne Feeney, a political and labor rights singer, and Dana Lyons, known for his lyrics centered on the environment, have joined for their tour “Teamsters and Turtles: Together at Last.” On Monday, July 6, Feeney and Lyons are making their Olympic Peninsula performance aimed at benefiting Olympic Climate Action. “The environmental movement doesn’t have to be at odds with industry,” Bob Sextro, Olympic Climate Action member, said. “The concert allows us to get this message out in a fun and interesting way.”

Peninsula utilizing a grant from Washington Departments of Commerce and Ecology. The plan is anticipated to provide information to shape future planning and assist in both identifying and providing a better understanding of local vulnerabilities and risks associated with climate change. Olympic Climate Action represents about 500 residents and involvement continues to grow, but the “challenge is getting people that are skeptical to take a second and third look at climate change,” Sextro said. “The concert is a different way to engage people and provide new information,” he said. “We support continued job growth and industry success, but we also support a clean environment.” To see Feeney and Lyons perform is by donation. All proceeds collected will help with operating costs associated with Olympic Climate Action, such as printing fliers for public outreach and tabling events, Sextro said.

Olympic Climate Action is a group of citizens with a shared concern of climate change. Members seek “a safe, prosperous, sustainable future for residents of the Olympic Peninsula by addressing the threat of climate change,” according to the group’s website. To help move toward their mission, members of Olympic Climate Action stay involved with climatecentric efforts on both a state and local level, Sextro explained. For example, some Olympic Climate Action members are engaged with a petition drive to support state Initiative 732 that would implement a tax on carbon pollution. More locally, members are involved with a collaborative project Reach Alana Linderoth at to develop a Climate Preparedness Plan for the North Olympic alinderoth@sequimgazette.com.

Included in the program will be an audience sing-a-long entitled, “Sing For America,” plus the jaunty “Suite of Old American Dances,” a medley of Rodgers and Hammerstein, “The Golden Age of Broadway,” and “American Salute” by Morton Gould — which is based on the well-known tune, “When Johnny Comes Marching Home.”

relationship with words. “I love words,” he said. “That’s why I got into writing and still sort of have to do it.” Using words as his medium, Couhig paints the picture of a tight-knit family from Clinton, La., in a heated hunt for one man. Pulling from his own understanding of the vast differences between New Mexico and Louisiana cultures, Couhig builds a dynamic setting for this novel and with thoughtful character development he tackles the age-old questions of good and evil. “It is ambiguous and returns to the basic questions of good and bad,” he said. “Questions like who is evil, what is evil and what is redemption.” Although the book confronts a variety of serious questions, Couhig maintains a sense of humor — a reaction to his own love of laughter. “This is a personal preference, but I really like to laugh,” Couhig said. “To me there are parts in this book that make me laugh out loud.” As his first novel, Couhig wrote it for “anybody who enjoys a read primarily designed to entertain,” he said. Yet, he assures he was mindful to maintain an Reach Alana Linderoth at “interesting structure and a alinderoth@sequimgazette. shocking ending.” com.

“I think if there’s one good thing about this book, it’s that everybody who reads this thinks I’m saying something different,” Couhig said. “And I really enjoy that because there’s an old saying that, ‘You write the book but everybody else reads a different book’ because they’re going to insert into it what they think is being said.” The completion of “The Face of His Brother” may be a milestone in Couhig’s writing career, but it’s only the beginning as he already has two other novels in the making. “They’re all very different styles,” he said. “One is a big spectacular mess right now.” Because innately he is an “undisciplined writer,” Couhig said when working on future books he aims to be more rigid about setting aside time to work. “I love deadlines,” he said. “Or more accurately, I need deadlines.” Despite the challenges of writing a novel, Couhig thrived on the collaborative aspect of the process. “The most fun was doing a draft and sending it out to friends and advisors,” he said. “I had some great help.” “The Face of His Brother” is available locally at Hart’s Fine Books or online at markcouhig.com or www. amazon.com.

Picasso at the Lapin Agile (Nimble Rabbit) is a play written by Steve Martin, and features the characters of Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso, who meet at a bar in 1904. Both men—on the verge of an amazing idea—have a lengthy debate about the value of genius and talent while interacting with a host of other characters.

The second time was a charm for this Washington State University freshman. Atop the leaderboard at the 22nd Washington State Women’s Amateur Championship, Alivia Brown had plenty of fellow Gig Harbor natives to keep her company. Brown fired back-to-backto-back rounds of 1-under par 71 to take the state amateur title, held June 23-25 at Sequim’s The Cedars at Dungeness, cruising to an eight-shot win over secondplace finisher Cherokee Kim, also of Gig Harbor. Last year, Brown — a two-time state 4A champ while playing for Bellarmine Prep — finished runner-up to Jordan Ferreira in 2014 but wasn’t challenged much beyond the first day of competition. “Both years I was having a

what made the difference.” Playing alongside the amateurs, Ginny Burkey of Eugene, Ore., won her second title in the Washington State Senior Women’s Amateur

title while Mary Ryan of Renton won the Washington State Super Senior Women’s Amateur, edging out Sequim’s own Witta Priester by two shots. The three Washington State Golf Association championships were held concurrently at The Cedars. For complete results, see www. thewsga.org. Brown recently finished her freshman year playing for WSU’s women’s golf team and four of her WSU teammates — Kim, Kristen Rue (fourth place), Rachel Lewis (seventh) and Bree Wanderscheid (11th) — also teed it up in the tourney. “That was so much fun,” Brown said. “To be here together and to have that kind of support made it really special.” Brown adds her name to a list of past champions that includes LPGA Tour players Paige Mackenzie and Jimin Kang, among others.

They aren’t wearing purple and gold any longer, but several Sequim High School grads were making an impact in for their college teams this spring, highlighted by big efforts from former Wolves Lea Hopson, Frank Catelli and Jayson Brocklesby. • Makayla Bentz (freshman, Pacific Lutheran University; softball) Bentz, a 2014 SHS graduate and Olympic League MVP in her senior season, played sparingly in her first season with the Lutes. Bentz appeared in nine BENTZ games — all in relief — with a 1-1 record, eight strikeouts and a 7.44 earned-runaverage in 16 innings. PLU went 23-17 on the spring season.

• Jayson Brocklesby (sophomore, Olympic College; track and field) Brocklesby, a 2013 Sequim High graduate and former state 2A high jump champion, was the men’s high-point scorer at the 2015 NWAC Track & Field Championships May 1819 in Spokane. He also was named the BROCKLESBY meet’s Outstanding Male Track Athlete after winning the decathlon with a 235-point lead over the runner-up and earning All-American honors in the 400-meter dash (49.68) and high jump (6-6.25) events.

This year, the Developmental Preschool, both Haller Life Skills classes and Sequim High School Life Skills class ventured over to the Kitsap County Fairgrounds for Corey’s Day on the Farm. We had at least 30 parent volunteers go with us this year and fun was had by all. The students rode horses, went on hay rides, learned to rope cattle, got their pictures taken, visited the petting farm and ate lunches provided by the volunteer staff. Corey’s Day on the Farm is in its 40th year and utilizes 150-200 volunteers to help run this twoday program for special needs children.

SEQUIM HIGH SCHOOL On behalf of the science department, teacher Joe Sullivan would like to extend thanks to the Sequim Education Foundation, under president Jodi Olson’s leadership, for its support. This year, the foundation provided the high school science teachers with a grant to purchase a gas chromatograph. Chemistry teachers Isaac Rapelje and Brittany Murdach said they are very excited to share its capabilities with Sequim students for years to come. Sequim students will be able to do lab work instead of just reading about it. The gas chromatograph takes a sample and separates it out to every single ingredient for analysis.

Talk about the Fourth Fireworks can be fun but that isn’t the purpose of the Fourth of July. Can you talk with your child about why we celebrate on this holiday? Actually, many parents may skip talking about the meaning of the Fourth of July because they don’t really remember. The Fourth of July is our country’s birthday. When your child asks about the holiday, you need to be able to tell her what happened on July 4, 1776. That was the day our country’s founders declared independence from Great Britain. Independence meant they no longer followed the orders of the British king. This was a major event and even extremely dangerous. When this occurred, Britain had one of the strongest armies in the world and to go against the king was punishable by death.

Parenting Matters Cynthia Martin

Our founders and each of the 13 colonies decided it was worth the risk of war to win the freedom to govern ourselves. It took a while, in fact until 1783, for the new United States to win the war which is now called the Revolutionary War. This is a great time to take your child on a tour to show them about local government and talk about what it does in their lives. Stop in Sequim at the new city

When you set off any fireworks, ask him to tell you something about his responsibility as a citizen. As you set off the next one, ask her to tell you something about this important day. All of you should have a wonderful time on this special day. There are a number of important people in our history who helped make it possible. Probably the most remembered signature in history is John Hancock; he helped us begin this special celebration. Set aside at least a little time to thank them on his Fourth of July.

Sponsored by caring pet lovers. LULU is such a happy girl! LuLu is a very sweet pit bull that needs a home that can spend lots of time with her. LuLu should be an only pet. She is not overly aggressive with other animals, but she has a history of scuffles in the past with other dogs in her home. LuLu does pull pretty hard on her leash, but that’s just because she is so excited to get down into the play yard where she can run and run and run!!!

EVE was very scared when we first got her, but she has since become very sweet! Eve needs to go to a home where she will be the only pet, and where there are no kids. She can be very protective of her home so she will need a fenced yard to keep her safe. Eve loves to play fetch! If you are looking for a loyal pit bull, please consider Eve! Adoption fee (includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccine, and a health check from a vet): $120 ROSIE is TERRIFIED of being at the shelter! She was brought in because she wasn’t getting along with the two small dogs in the house. We don’t know much about Rosie’s personality as she is rather shut down in the shelter environment. She is slowly warming up, and will let people pet her. She walks well on a leash and stays clean in her kennel. She will need someone experienced with dogs to take a chance on her.

UN GRANDE is a sweet boy with people, and he has lived with other animals, but he does NOT LIKE OTHER DOGS at the shelter. Uno would be a challenging dog for a first time dog owner since he is a big and strong boy. He will need a large-dogexperienced owner that can handle him! But he is SO sweet and friendly with people, he will just lean against you and beg for more attention!
