SW parks leaders dream of overnight camping
Fireworks ban a bust with recalling of ‘core values’ By KATE DANIEL Whidbey News Group A ban on fireworks in Island County seems unlikely now after one commissioner changed his mind on the potentially explosive policy change. They may, however, have come to an agreement on changes to the fireworks rules that would limit discharge of personal fireworks to July 3-5. The three commissioners met with Sheriff Mark Brown, who also serves as the county fire marshal, on Wednesday at the board’s weekly work session. A county attorney was just beginning to present a proposal when Commissioner Rick Hannold interjected. Though he previously supported a total ban on personal-use fireworks, he said he changed his mind after receiving a “considerable” amount of feedback from the community. “It’s very widely debated in the community,” he said. “But in my exuberance to put forth something that I thought would be enforceable by the sheriff and the prosecutor, I kind of lost track of who I really truly am and what I consider my core values, which are holding people responsible, making sure people are responsible for their own actions and holding them accountable.” “I think to ask for an outright ban at this point, considering the feedback I’ve gotten from people in the community, from both islands, would be ill-advised,” he said. Giving the fire marshal the authority to issue a ban on fireworks in the event of an emergency situation would be best, Hannold said.

Ransom for a king
Season opener finds South Whidbey anglers eager to pay time tribute for a chance to hook the big one By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record The early bird gets the worm, and only the earliest of anglers can get the king. A veritable fleet of small boats loaded with anxious anglers took to the waters between Coupeville and Port Townsend this week with the hope of hooking into the most regally named sport fish in Puget Sound, the king salmon. Also called chinook, the king season is short and sweet. Opening day in Marine Area 9, the west side of Whidbey Island, was July 16. The season lasts until Aug. 15 but can close earlier depending on how many are caught. That means opening day is often frantic. On a Triumph fishing boat with a few South Whidbey die-hard king salmon anglers Thursday, the day started while the rest of Whidbey seemingly slept. Wake up was at 3:20 a.m., and the drive from the Maxwelton Valley to Bush Point and Lagoon Point saw only two other pairs of headlights, both heading south and away from the buzz of king salmon action. The boat launched by 4:45 a.m. and the first lines set up with the downrigger by 5:15 a.m. Then came the waiting. Ben Watanabe / The Record

The South Whidbey Parks and Recreation District is looking at getting into the campgrounds business. The commissioners and district staff discussed the possibility of purchasing 30 acres of land adjacent to Community Park for a campground at its regular monthly meeting Wednesday. The property is owned by the Dora Gabelein Trust, and details such as cost were discussed in executive session. In a later interview, Director Doug Coutts said the district is still negotiating a purchase price. Coutts said he doesn’t know what the project will cost. There isn’t a concrete determination for how Parks and Recreation plans to use the land, Coutts said, but the main idea would be to create a campground with a design and layout similar to the South Whidbey State Park. “We’ve discussed the idea that a campground is a good idea,” Coutts said. “We haven’t looked at design, layout; we’ve discussed potential amenities, things that would be necessary and that would be needed for a campground. It’s not going to be your standard, asphalt RV park.” Following the state’s decision this spring to close the campgrounds at South Whidbey State Park due to the presence of tree rot, the South End has been without one of its prominent places for overnight camping. The nearest spot to camp is now in Coupeville. Advocates for an overSEE CAMPGROUNDS, A5

A fellow angler plays a fish up toward the boat near Port Townsend on July 16.
KING CONTINUED FROM A1
Fishing for kings is a game of patience and persistence, said boat owner Jean Streitler of Clinton, who was accompanied by friends Don Heggenes and Tom Fallon. There are no tricks, they said, to catching kings. It’s about time and action. “Be fishing,” Streitler said. Added Fallon: “You can’t catch anything sitting on the couch or in bed.” Alas, salmon proved to be both elusive and feisty, but the day wasn’t without excitement. Lures run deep, about 120 feet, and as Fallon reeled in the squid-like lure — a strike! Turning over the level wind reel and bringing in the fish, it was hardly a loss to Fallon to watch the pink salmon spit out the hook and swim away a dozen or so feet from the boat. “Stupid humpy,” Fallon said. As the hours wore on and daylight breached through a cloudy sky and shone across
the mountains, the tension that perhaps the only fish to be hooked had gotten away grew. Across the water, what started as a faint line of flickering boat lights in the dark became an increasingly frenzied horde of fiberglass and aluminum boats trolling south. Like a choreographed dance, the vessels drifted from Marrowstone Island toward Port Townsend, then motored back to repeat the motion. While the South Whidbey men said previous years were far busier, the area was choked with boats. With so many on the water, the lack of hearing “hoots and hollers” was both encouraging and disheartening because it meant their boat wasn’t the only one not finding fish. More waiting. By 6 a.m. Heggenes’ rod jumps up off the downrigger. Fish on. Heggenes yanks up, setting the hook. He pulls up and reels in as he lets the rod down. He repeats the motion a dozen more times before a silver flash thrashes
in the water, 10 yards from the boat. He reels it close enough for Streitler to scoop it into the net for a quick boat-side inspection — a big, 20-pound, native chinook that must be released. “It’s thrilling to reel it, but it’s even more thrilling to hold it,” Heggenes said. Another 80 minutes pass before either rod sees that kind of action. In the meantime, tales are told, theories of why the fish aren’t biting and where they may be are shared, and several more

was landed. It ended up being the only fish kept before being dropped off at Bush Point to haul out the boat for another day. Later in the afternoon, a local fishing expert said he’d heard only one report of a successful king salmon trip. Bob Crouch, the fishing guru at Sebo’s Do-It Center in Bayview, said a man came by in the late morning and reported he had kept a 20-pound and 16-pound king salmon, meeting his daily legal limit. “That’s the only one I’ve heard of so far, but they’re big fish,” Crouch said. “It sounds like it’s starting off good,” he added. King salmon fishing, because of the depth at which they typically swim and feed, are largely relegated to boaters. That limits some access, especially as opposed to the nearshore catchability of pink salmon at beaches like Bush Point and Mutiny Bay. But every once in a while, someone hooks into a king from the beach, as Crouch said he can attest to. Both times the catch was out of season and he released them. “I’ve caught them off the beach, they happen occasionally,” he said.

overpaid by nearly $7,000 as part of her separation agreement. He said the agency probably can’t do anything to recoup the money because the board of directors ratified the payout amount as part of the settlement. Banks asked detectives with the State Patrol to investigate last fall after a report by the state Auditor’s Office identified discrepancies between Rose’s calendar and her vacation leave balance. The Auditor’s Office analyzed the transit agency’s records after financial problems forced officials to lay off employees and cut bus routes. Rose eventually left under pressure from the public and the Island Transit board of directors. The board approved a $106,000 payout as part of Rose’s severance package, which included $88,000 for unused vacation. The state audit report, and the state patrol investigation, stated that Rose hadn’t reported many days of vacation time.
FREELAND Development up for discussion Those interested in future development rules for Freeland will have a chance to weigh in at a community meeting next week. The meeting is from 4 to 6 p.m. Tuesday, July 21 at Whidbey Water Services, 5585 Lotto Ave. Island County is in the midst of updating its comprehensive plan, and part of that process is developing zoning and land-use
regulations to implement the Freeland Subarea Plan. Island County Planning and Community Development staff is holding the meeting to provide a brief overview of the process, answer questions and collect community feedback. According to a recent news release, it will be the first of several planned public meetings to discuss the new regulations.
SCHOOLS Board considering larger budget The South Whidbey School Board will hold a public hearing about the proposed 2015-16 budget next week. The hearing will be held during the district’s regularly scheduled business meeting at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 22 in the Community Room at South Whidbey Elementary School on Maxwelton Road. According to budget documents discussed at a July 8 workshop, the general fund is set to increase to $16.5 million, from $15.4 million in the 201415 budget. Similarly, total expenditures are expected to increase to $19.4 million from $18.4 million. Some of the primary challenges in the district this year include enrollment decline, unknown negotiation costs, and substantial increases in retirement rates, according to board documents. Public hearings are formal and legally required meetings where public comment is taken and recorded.

night campground say it has the potential to be a boost to South Whidbey’s economy. Campers would likely hit stores across the South End to supply their outdoor festivities, said Michaleen McGarry, executive director of the Langley Chamber of Commerce. “It would definitely have potential for growth,” McGarry said. “In general, it’s actually something that’s very welcome. The outdoor adventure sector is just growing a lot.” Even environmental warriors agree the area is in desperate need of a new campground. “I see making camping available as a major piece of the economic picture,” said Marianne Edain, brushfire coordinator for the Whidbey Environmental Action Network. “There’s a screaming need for more campsites.” According to Coutts, a soft plan is for 30 camping spots, which would be a split between tent and powered camping. Along with a campground, there would
WWW.SOUTHWHIDBEYRECORD.COM
be trails throughout the area. As for the actual building and maintenance of the park, Coutts said, existing logging roads might be removed or reconditioned into paths — the idea is to keep it “natural” looking. Edain said the considered site is near the headwaters of Maxwelton Creek, which she called the largest stream in Island County. “It’s not even 10 miles, but it’s the biggest creek we have,” she said. The high school and South Whidbey Parks and Recreation are parked right on top of the headwaters. It’s caused some problems in the past, she said, and any development of the area should be done with caution.

Editor’s column Letters Real manhood ended Response Banning fireworks up having to wait is the best thing By JUSTIN BURNETT
for Island County
Editor, Fires are burning in the Queets rain forest in Olympic National Park this summer. Smoke blowing down from Canada alerts us that fires rage there, too. We on Whidbey Island know that our woods and grass lands are just as dry, ready to burst into flame if touched by a carelessly tossed match or firecracker. How fast could such a fire spread? Take a look to your right at the blackened fields as you drive from Freeland to Bayview on Highway 525. In this case, our valiant firefighters were able to stop the flames. But, can you imagine the panic if a fire on Whidbey spread out of control? We have three exits from this island, none of which could manage a mass evacuation. When our fire danger is high, Island County Sheriff Mark Brown, who is also the fire marshal, alerts us with signs and newspaper notices of the burn ban, and all sensible residents strictly observe it. But what about fireworks? In most cities of Washington, fireworks are illegal, but not so in many unincorporated areas, such as Whidbey Island. As this year’s Fourth of July approached, even with extreme fire danger in the state, officials from the governor on down seemed flummoxed, with apparently no one able to take emergency action. I contend that only local fire or police officials are in a position to evaluate fire danger in their region; and
Ahhhhh… manhood! I’ve arrived at last. Admittedly, it was a couple of days later than planned, but I’ll get to that in a minute. Let me just say first that the air is clearer up here with us real men, us crabbers. As the elite we know things that other people don’t, stuff like how it feels to be that guy in the office who gives away free crab because he caught more than he can eat. Well, this week I’m that guy because I caught two.
Ahhhhh… manhood! These were two hard-earned crab, I might add. As I mentioned in this very column on Wednesday, I’ve had a lot of fun in life and have gotten to see and do some cool things. But being my own crabber, the one who decides when and where to drop his pots, had somehow eluded me. Seriously, what self-respecting Whidbey Island man hasn’t gone out and caught a few Dungeness crab in his life? Well, my name had been on that short list for too long so I boldly wrote that I would end my shame that very night. That column was written on Tuesday. TUESDAY. Those who already live up high in the clear air will know why that’s relevant. For everyone else, Tuesdays and Wednesdays are especially important in the crabbing world for reasons I’ll explain shortly. So, after work I loaded up my leaky old aluminum dinghy — it belonged to my late grandfather and has hauled countless Dungeness in years past — my trusty first mate (Mr. Spock, the dog) and headed out to pick up my fishing license. Wanting to be a responsible fisherman, I was careful to quiz the experts about what areas are legal to fish, daily limits and size requirements. I was ready. I should preface this by mentioning the work and investment that preceded these events. Buying a trap and gear ($125), borrowing a trailer for the boat and wiring the Toyota to tow it ($50, and an afternoon under the truck) buying bait ($2.50) and time rummaging through the shed for stuff like life jackets, extra line and other miscellaneous boat gear (headache). So finally I was set and Mr. Spock and I hit the boat launch at Freeland Park. It was too rough to comfortably launch such a small boat — 8 feet — but I was determined and strangely we had the place largely to ourselves. Similarly, Holmes Harbor was a ghost town of other boats and crab traps alike. Weird, I thought as I dropped my pot after a wet SEE EDITOR’S COLUMN, A7

if they judge fire danger to be high, they must be given the authority to ban all outdoor burning, including the setting off of fireworks. An even better solution for Island County would be to completely ban fireworks. We cannot be so irresponsible as to wait for a massive fire, destroying houses and taking lives, before we change this law. GLORIA KOLL Freeland

problem-solving, not negative criticism with unrealistic options. Tim is the best leader for guiding and supporting city staff and community volunteers who donate their time on city projects with honesty and integrity. Quality leadership is not demonstrated by negative attacks on staff and pro bono volunteers in The Record, nor exhibiting disrespect for police officers who are doing their duty. Tim can work positively with port officials and staff as the marina expands; he is an experienced negotiator, implementer; he can better serve residents, property owners and merchants through realistic and achievable visions that support this vibrant and diverse community, not suggesting as some have that conflict and dissension, even strife, are healthy for the community. That is not healthy leadership. One may be opposed to an idea like the “Langley lift,” but vociferous and angry or mean-spirited opposition to an idea only drives a wedge into the community, not unites it with positive dialogue and debate. As an experienced planner, I was disappointed to see the
need for two police officers at a public workshop—that is not healthy. Running for a community leadership role and asking for votes on a single negative issue is not healthy. Vision? None. Tim Callison is demonstrating quality leadership with his positive experience and demeanor. Leadership is about capability, experience, skills, a positive demeanor and example. Yes, leadership by example. Vote for Tim Callison. RON KASPRISIN Langley

and bumpy 30-minute ride to Sandy Point just south of Honeymoon Bay. Well, the mystery was solved when I arrived back at the launch to a man with a knowing smile who expressed his hope that I wouldn’t lose my pot because the fishery was closed. Being a naturally suspicious newsman, I marked his face just in case it did go
missing as I knew the area was in fact open. Of course he was right. A call to a state hotline made it clear that while the area was open, all crab fishing in Puget Sound is closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Ahhhhh… manhood, looks like it would have to wait until Thursday. What a newbie. The trip back out that very evening to pick up my illegal pot was smoother than the previous trip, thanks to it being 8 p.m., but it was bitter consolation as I dumped overboard the eight
crab I found inside. Thursday came all too quickly, however, and I dropped my pot in the very same spot, which was now surrounded by a sea of other traps. A half-hour later, I claimed two legal-size males, chucked a small one back and dropped the pot down for an overnight soak. I had crab for dinner, the best one I’ve ever eaten, gave another away Friday morning and am eagerly awaiting the end of the work day to fetch more red gold. So what’s the moral of

MORE LETTERS 2013 was over $5.5 million. Taxpayers should be outraged at this lack of fiscal discipline and accountability at our public hospital. The incumbent running for reelection, Georgia Gardner, stated in a recent forum that she is dedicated to the oversight of hospital finances. Indeed. With that kind of “dedication” it seems to me the hospital is in big trouble, and it’s time for some adult leadership. Of the three candidates for the board, there’s one, Rob Born, who seems to understand that board members have a serious fiduciary responsibility to the taxpayers. It’s time for a change, and the upcoming election will be the voters’ chance to make that change.

Little Leaguers advance to state tournament By EVAN THOMPSON South Whidbey Record
Drew Fry doesn’t get nervous during the big moment in a game. Well, maybe just a little bit, the pitcher and shortstop says. That’s because Fr y’s mind is elsewhere. It’s focused on the next pitch, the next strike. And after South Whidbey’s 11/12 Little League All-Stars
defeated Sedro-Woolley 3-1 in the second of two championship games in the District 11 tournament Thursday night, it’s on to the next game. South Whidbey will face District 4’s champion at the 2015 Washington State Little League Baseball State Tournament at 11 a.m. July 25 in Bothell. Fry was on the mound when South Whidbey secured the victory, which was especially fitting con-
sidering he was pitching when the team lost 3-2 to Sedro-Woolley on a walk-off home run in the first round. South Whidbey’s win over Sedro-Woolley marked the team’s fifth consecutive victory in the tournament. South Whidbey defeated Anacortes, Central Whidbey, and Nor th Whidbey — the top seed in the tournament — en route to the championship game. “I can’t believe we came back from that, after los-
ing the first game,” Fry said, referring to South Whidbey’s loss in the opening round. “We worked together as a team better since the first game.” Fry retired 10 of his first 11 batters, while holding Sedro-Woolley to four hits. Fry threw eight strikeouts. The majority of the team went to state two years ago in the 9/10 division. But, compared to the level of maturity and development skill-wise that has hap-

Sedro-Woolley’s most productive inning came in the fourth, when Seth Humerickhouse scored off Owen Murdock’s single.

Shakespeare Festival offers tales of power, honor, redemption By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record Island Shakespeare Festival’s two 2015 productions are two sides to the same coin of humanity. One side has the females of “The Tempest,” which opened this weekend; the other, “The Three Musketeers,” represents the male. They play on the themes of honor and power crafted by artistic director and founder Rose Woods, who is directing “The Tempest.” Gordon Carpenter is directing “The Three Musketeers” based on his own adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’ French tale of the men protecting the crown. With Musketeers, Island Shakespeare Festival is taking its first foray away from the works of Shakespeare since launching in 2009. Woods said she chose to include a non-Shakespearean work to the lineup this season because she wanted to vary what was offered and because she trusted Carpenter to create a great work, for which he was commissioned. Originally, a third production of “Night of the Iguana” was set to be part of the festival but was dropped due to personnel changes, Woods said. With further plans for a third production in 2016 and perhaps a fourth in later years, Woods said the festival will rely only on classical literature for performances. “I love that in classical literature chivalry still exists, that good guys are good guys and villains are villains but sometimes do good,” she said. In Tempest, a magician and duchess named Prospero, played by Amy Wheeler of Hedgebrook Institute, is stranded on an
Island Shakespeare Festival Two productions await patrons this season: “The Tempest” and “The Three Musketeers,” the latter representing the first foray away from William Shakespeare’s work. All performances begin promptly at 5 p.m., with no late seating or admission, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The tent opens at 4:15 p.m., with first-come, firstserve seating. Performances run every week, except for Aug. 6-9, through Sept. 13. Opening first was “The Tempest” on Friday, July 17. “The Three Musketeers” opens Thursday, July 23. By July 30, the performances alternate days, with “The Tempest” on July 30 and “The Three Musketeers” on July 31.

Due to the machinations of Prospero’s brother, Antonio, she and her daughter were stuck on the island. That is, until Prospero divines that Antonio, played by Andy Fling, is offshore and summons a tempest — thus the title — to bring her brother ashore to get revenge and restore her and her daughter’s place as the rightful ruler and heir. Woods said it is a story of the lengths to which parents will go to ensure their children’s safety, or of anyone’s attempts to help those they love. Rather than seeing Prospero’s storm as a solely destructive force, Woods said it allows all of
the characters to undergo a transformation. Woods said the story, as she has adapted it, is intensely personal. She first moved to the area to spend time with her mother, and that relationship was the springboard and connection to the story and characters of “The Tempest,” particularly Prospero and Miranda. “ ‘The Tempest,’ for me, is all about redemption,” she said. In her director’s message about the production, she wrote: “I am rediscovering grace, hope, and no small amount of love. It’s humbling.” She saw the relationship between Prospero, traditionally a much older male, and the 15-year-old
Miranda as needing more realism. Lowering the age of Prospero and making the duke into a duchess changes it drastically, she said, and the actors have brought a genuine element to their onstage relationship. Woods said there are lines where Miranda, as played by Christiansen, has the snark of a 15-yearold girl responding to her seemingly overbearing parent. Playing with the gender of characters and of the performers is nothing new, and continues a long tradition in acting. Woods said it matters more about how an actor connects to the character more than just having men play men and women play women, unless

it defeats the purpose of the play entirely. A bit of cross-gender performing will take place with “The Three Musketeers” as well. With 11 women and eight men performing in the company, by necessity some of the swashbucklers will be female. All three main musketeers, however, are men, as played by Aramis’ Gavin Douglas, D’Artagnan’s Michael Robinson and Porthos’ Damien Cortez. Woods described “Musketeers” as being “testosterone-driven,” because of all of the action and fights. “There’s 20 fights in ‘The Three Musketeers’ at least,” she said. “It’s a melee.” To create a different experience, the tent will

FIREWORKS CONTINUED FROM A1
The effort to restrict the discharge of fireworks has been spearheaded by Commissioner Helen Price Johnson. She’d lobbied for limitations or an outright ban. Hannold initially agreed restrictions were warranted; Commissioner Jill Johnson was the sole opposition. Following Hannold’s change of heart, the board again discussed whether to
include fireworks in a total burn ban, or to ban the use of personal fireworks entirely. They had also discussed the possibility of giving the fire marshal authority to impose a total burn ban, inclusive of personal-use fireworks. Aside from a total ban on personal-use fireworks, Brown said, linking the ban on fireworks to a total burn ban would be most effective. “We had a partial burn ban that ended up going to a total burn ban. At that point, the logic behind not allowing
enclosed fires, but allowing fireworks, becomes problematic,” Brown said. Johnson said she was in favor of restricting personaluse fireworks in hazardous circumstances, and added she would be “more than happy” to give that authority to the fire marshal. She added that there needs to be a detailed outline of what circumstances constitute the need for a ban, and that there should be an early-notice time frame specified. That way, individuals don’t “gear up” for

certain types of celebrations only to be told “no” at the last minute. “Emergency circumstances are, by definition, not known well in advance,” said Price Johnson. “I think the verbiage around having consultation with the fire officials provides the community with the assurance that it would not be done arbitrarily.” Perhaps a clause could address instances of fire breakouts, she suggested, adding there needs to be time to notify people when a ban is put into effect. “It’s hard to imagine a scenario where you have a level of dryness that you don’t see coming in advance. One hot day doesn’t create an emergency,” she said. Price Johnson said she wouldn’t support including a time frame in the county code. She asked Johnson and Hannold if there was interest in restricting the number of days fireworks would be permitted, noting that she’d received numerous emails from residents requesting a reduction in allowed discharge periods. During the previous meeting she suggested limiting personal-use fireworks to July 4 only, citing concerns from citizens about trash, pets and wildlife. Oak Harbor and unincorporated Island County allow discharge of personal fireworks June 28 through July 5. Langley and Coupeville restrict discharge to July 4. In response to Price Johnson’s suggestion, Hannold said he would sup-
port restricting discharge of personal fireworks to July 3-5. Johnson argued against the proposal, saying that the ability to ignite fireworks is a major draw for tourists who come to the islands. Price Johnson said she doesn’t believe restricting fireworks to July 3 and 4 would have a negative impact on the economy. Johnson eventually acquiesced, however, saying she could accept the July 3-5 time frame. “I think fireworks have gotten more intense over time; I think that’s a fair statement to make,” said Johnson. “I still think there’s room in our culture for fireworks celebrations and the traditions that go along with it, and I am comfortable with the third, fourth and fifth as that celebratory window.” New Year’s would also be included, for a total of four days a year. The proposed ban on fireworks would only apply to fireworks sold and ignited for personal use in areas of unincorporated Island County, not those discharged during public displays, such as Oak Harbor’s July 4 celebration or Freeland’s July 3 Celebrate America event. If the new fireworks rules are adopted, they will take effect one year after their adoption, unless the state Legislature decides in favor of an earlier date. The public will have the opportunity to review and comment upon a draft ordinance before it is finalized.
