Sequim firefighters head east to battle wildfires Okanogan Complex fires are largest in Washington’s history by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette
As reinforcements from around the globe come to help fight Washington’s many wildfires, some of Sequim’s own are on the job, too. Clallam County Fire District 3 Fire Chief Ben Andrews said 10 firefighters with the department are deployed to various fires around the state.
Two crews from three departments left for the Okanogan Complex fires near Omak on Aug. 20 to provide structural protection. Participating firefighters include, from left, Lt. Kelly Ziegler, Firefighter Becca Yucha, Firefighter Danielle Hebert, Firefighter/Paramedic John Hall, Lt. Mike McAney, Firefighter Pete Sekac and Firefighter Katie Babcock.

The latest group of firefighters left in the afternoon on Aug. 20 from Carlsborg and arrived in the early morning on Aug. 21 in Omak near the Okanogan Complex fires. These five fires, northwest of Omak, have spread to nearly 257,000 acres as of Tuesday morning and are 10 percent contained, fire officials report. It’s reported to be the biggest fire in Washington’s history. All volunteers, Lt. Mike McAneny serves as engine boss for Sequim’s Engine 38 with fellow firefighters Becca Yucha, Danielle Hebert and Dave Walker of Port Ludlow Fire & Rescue.

The creosote soaked pilings, teetering about 15- to 18-feet into the sky and supporting 16 nesting boxes for purple martins are owned by the Port of Port Angeles and a target for future removal — leaving the largest of

County reopens beach at Cline Spit
Stellar Sequim Sunset
Use of Cline Spit Beach is now open, Clallam County health officials announced last week. Samples of the water collected on Aug. 19 show the concentration of Enterococcus bacteria has returned to safe levels and is below the Washington State Department of Health swimming beach closure level for Enterococcus. The closure began on Aug. 14 and health officials advised visitors avoid any water contact with swimming or wading in waters at Cline Spit County Park. Contact with fecal contaminated waters can result in gastroenteritis, skin rashes, upper respiratory infections and other illnesses, health officials said. Children and the elderly may be more vulnerable to waterborne illnesses. Andy Brastad, Clallam County Health and Human Services Environmental Health director, this is the first time Cline Spit beach has been closed for health concerns that he knows of. For more information about the advisory, call 417-2424.
Contributor Jim Wood snapped this photo while out on the Protection Island Puffin Marine Sunset Dinner Cruise in July. Wood said he moved to Sequim with his wife Jo in September 2013 from Eagle River, Alaska, and on the cruise “they saw six puffins, which is a little different than Alaska where they are all over,” he said. But the Sequim sunset is what caught his eye. “I’ve seen sunsets but nothing like that,” he said. The cruise celebrated the Dungeness River Railroad Bridge’s 100-year anniversary with proceeds benefiting the education programs at the Dungeness River Audubon Center and Railroad Bridge Park.

Andrews said this crew will provide structural protection going through areas clearing brush and combustibles near defensible homes and spraying foam on homes. Sequim’s crew picked up Walker from Port Ludlow as his department wasn’t able to send an engine of its own, Andrews said. They traveled with Engine 12 from Port Angeles Fire Department and firefighters from that department and Clallam County Fire District 2. Andrews said Fire District 3 received a call at noon on Aug. 20 to help with the fires alongside firefighter/ EMT Pete Sekac, firefighter/paramedic John Hall, firefighter/EMT Lt. Kelly Ziegler from the Port Angeles Fire Department and volunteer firefighter/EMT Katy Babcock from Clallam County Fire District 2.

Four more local firefighters have been assisting other firefighters and/or battling the Stickpin fire, part of the Kettle Complex fires in northern Ferry County in northeastern Washington, for more than a week. James Brown has been serving as a medical unit leader with the Washington Incident Management Team 1 while Len Horst serves as engine boss for Fire District 3’s Brush Truck 34 with firefighter Ivan Hueter and volunteer firefighter Austen Delgado. They’ve been dig-
ging trenches and burning potential fuel for any fires that may spread. The Kettle Complex fire consists of three fires including Stickpin at more than 56,000 acres at 15 percent containment while the Stickpin fire makes up 47,544 acres of that. It is about 12 percent contained since lightning started it on Aug. 11, fire officials report. Andrews said he is planning to help this week at the Kettle Complex fires as an incident commander trainee and likely will return this weekend.
More fires Firefighter Brian Ouelette serves as a fire line medic at the Marble Valley Fire, 10 miles south of Colville. It stands as of Tuesday at about 85 percent containment of 3,087 acres. Firefighter Bryan Swanberg, with Incident Management Team 4, serves as a medical unit leader at the Grizzly Bear Complex fire, 20 miles southeast of Dayton. It’s burned about about 59,000 acres since starting on Aug. 13 and is about 5 percent contained in the Umatilla National Forest and land protected by the Washington Department of Natural Resources and the Oregon Department of Forestry. Andrews said Swanberg has served as a medical unit leader at three fires this summer as part of the incident management team. Two other team members, Darrell Sharp and John Riley, have served significant time at eastern fires, too. Sharp supervised more
than 700 firefighters near Walla Walla while Riley served at the Paradise fire in the Olympic National Forest about 13 miles north of Quinault. It is just over 2,500 acres and is 40 percent contained as of Tuesday.
Back at home With so many firefighters serving out of the area, Andrews said they make sure it doesn’t impact regular services in the area. “We’re using all off-duty firefighters,” Andrews said. “If they are scheduled to work, we bring in someone else to work for them.” The firefighters who serve as volunteers become employees of the Washington State Patrol, Andrews said, and Fire District 3 is reimbursed by the state for firefighters’ efforts. More Olympic Peninsula fire crews shipped out this week and/or are planning to help the Eastern Washington effort. Quilcene Fire & Rescue sent a crew and engine to the Okanogan Complex fires on Tuesday and the Forks Fire Department is gearing up to send an engine as well. East Jefferson Fire Rescue also has two firefighters on a brush engine at the Okanogan Complex. President Barack Obama declared a state of emergency in Washington last Friday, Aug. 21, as wildfires afflict 11 Washington counties and the Confederated Tribes of the Colville Reservation, the Kalispel Tribe of Indians, the Spokane Tribe of Indians and the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation.

Clallam County burn ban modified Because of atmospheric conditions of reduced moisture levels, low humidity and warmer weather combined with the reduced availability of fire-fighting resources, the Clallam County Burn Ban is being modified to include all
campgrounds within unincorporated Clallam County (county-controlled campgrounds are included in the burn ban). This modification prohibits all outdoor burning. Outdoor burning includes,
campfires, bonfires, briquette barbecues, residential yard debris clean-up, trash disposal, land clearing, weed abatement and agricultural burning activity. Propane/ gas appliances are permitted provided the use is over a
non-flammable surface and at least five feet from flammable vegetation. The exception to this modification is those campgrounds within Olympic National Park. The Clallam County Fire Marshal’s office works closely

A shifting sea Climate change vulnerabilities, adaptation strategies are topic of Aug. 27 meeting by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette
Inch by inch, one of nature’s greatest forces is on the rise. Since about the 1940s and not taking into account land movement, the sea along the North Olympic Peninsula has risen at an estimated rate of 3- to 4-inches per century, Ian Miller, coastal hazardous specialist with Washington Sea Grant, said. An increase in sea level rise, more frequent flooding and accelerated bluff erosion are among the local changes expected to occur in response to climate change. In Sequim, some of the most vulnerable communities to sea level rise are those built on low-lying areas like the Dungeness River delta and Diamond Point and those higher up, but bordering coastal bluffs. “Much of the focus of this project was looking at long-term planning, but we need to be thinking about the short-term, too,” Miller said. “The way that climate change manifests early on is more extreme, damaging events.” To help educate communities spanning from Neah Bay to Port Townsend on climate change and the projected impacts, Miller and Cindy Jayne, project manager with the North Olympic Development Council, will discuss the results of a collaborative project aimed at iden-

tifying local vulnerabilities and the development of adaptation strategies on Thursday, Aug. 27, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center. Presenting the project results across the North Olympic Peninsula is one of the final components of the project that started last June and is coming to a close in October, Jayne said. “The good news is that we have an opportunity to prepare for the expected changes,” she said. “The more we can do to prepare, the better we’ll be able to adjust.” Ian Miller, coastal hazardous specialist with Washington Sea Grant and Cindy Jayne, project manager for the North Olympic Development Council, are to discuss the vulnerabilities to climate change and sea level rise Miller and Jayne were among along the North Olympic Peninsula and how they differ from Neah Bay to Port Townsend (pictured above) on a diverse group of community Thursday, Aug. 27, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center.

Assessing local vulnerability
Waves washing up high at Alki Point in Seattle could become a familiar sight along the North Olympic Peninsula as research suggests the rates of sea level rise are almost certain to accelerate in the coming decades, leading to shoreline impacts from Neah Bay to Port Townsend within 85 years, according to Ian Miller, coastal hazardous specialist with Washington Sea Grant.

those that manage the various resources in the area, like the public utilities district for example. “It really married science and research with the on the ground work going on here,” Jayne said. One of the main deliverables of the project was to write a localized Climate Preparedness Plan. The plan is to be finalized at the end of the month. To help inform jurisdictions and local planning processes, such as the current one to update the Clallam County Shoreline Master Program, project partners also developed a document that summarizes example planning language. “It’s important to study climate change locally so we can make appropriate decisions in the future and avoid damaging risks,” Miller said. “Really, these things can set us up for a safer, cheaper future.” The houses along coastal bluffs built on the outskirts of Sequim are an example where proactive planning measures, like increased setbacks for shoreline development could help reduce risks. As sea level rises in relation to climate change, the rate of coastal bluff erosion is expected to pick up pace. “Development on coastal bluffs is shaping up to be a real struggle for this area,” Miller said.
The City of Sequim is seeking applicants to fill a vacancy on the City’s Arts Advisory Commission. The term for this position expires Dec. 31, 2018. This voluntary commission advises the city on matters related to the arts and culture. Applicants must reside in Clallam County with a Sequim address or be employed with a business located

rapidly and has outpaced sea level rise,” he said. “As a result relative sea level has fallen in Neah Bay at a rate of approximately 7 inches per century.” Whereas, in Port Townsend, Miller explained, the land is seemingly subsiding and thus the relative sea level has risen faster at about 6 inches per century. The estimated rate of sea level again differs in Port Angeles where the land is rising, but at a much slower rate than in Neah Bay. “There’s a lot to learn here,” Miller said. “Really, we’re just starting to understand the risks.” Globally, much of sea level rise can be attributed to two factors: increases in the amount of heat stored in the ocean (causing water to expand) and the addition of water volume to the oceans as land-grounded ice in Greenland and Antarctica has melted; Thus, the ability to make immediate impacts to sea level rise is unlikely, Miller said. However, he added, looking at sea level projections for the next 100 years, the “magnitude” is largely “governed” by the amount of greenhouse gases added to the atmosphere.
A lthough the project and resulting Climate Preparedness Plan take into account a wide range of impacts associated with climate change, such as projections for a “noticeable increase” in flooding in downtown Port Townsend during winter storm events within the next 15 years, according to Miller, Thursday’s discussion will primarily focus on sea level rise. “Rates of sea level rise are almost certain to accelerate in the coming decades and that sea level rise will almost certainly lead to shoreline impacts for all three communities (Neah Bay, Port Angeles and Port Townsend) by 2100,” Miller said. As a coastal hazardous specialist, Miller finds the North Olympic Peninsula a dynamic place to both conduct his research and live. One of the natural processes that makes the Strait of Juan de Fuca coastline even more complex to study is the differences in vertical land movement from Neah Bay to Port Townsend.

Washington state receives small business grant U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer announced this week that Washington has won investments from a program that helps small businesses sell their products in new markets. The Washington State Department of Commerce will receive $747, 300 through the State Trade and Export Promotion program for Puget Sound area businesses and others across the state, Kilmer announced on Aug. 24. The STEP program was created through the Small Business Jobs Act of 2010. Originally designed as a three-year pilot program, STEP was reauthorized at the end of last year. It aids small businesses by helping them expand exports of their products. Over the initial three years of STEP, Washington received more than $3 million in grants, helping about

A look at the future of Social Security by KIRK LARSON Social Security Western Washington Public Affairs Specialist
The Social Security Board of Trustees recently released its annual report on the long-term financial status of the Social Security Trust Funds. The combined asset reserves of the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) Trust Funds are projected to become depleted in 2034, one year later than projected last year, with 79 percent of benefits payable at that time. The DI Trust Fund will become depleted in 2016, unchanged from last year’s estimate, with 81 percent of benefits still payable. In the 2015 Annual Report to Congress, the trustees announced: • The combined trust fund reserves still are growing and will continue to do so through 2019. Beginning with 2020, the cost of the program is projected to exceed income. • The projected point at
which the combined trust fund reserves will become depleted, if Congress does not act before then, comes in 2034 — one year later than projected last year. At that time, there will be sufficient income coming in to pay 79 percent of scheduled benefits. “While the projected depletion date of the combined OASDI trust funds gained a year, the Disability Insurance Trust Fund’s projected depletion year remains 2016,” Carolyn W. Colvin, acting commissioner of Social Security, said. “I agree with President Obama, (that) we have to keep Social Security strong, protecting its future solvency. President Obama’s FY 2016 budget proposes to address this near-term Disability Insurance Trust Fund’s reserve depletion. “By reallocating a portion of payroll taxes from Old Age Survivors to the Disability Trust Fund — as has been done many times in the past — would have no adverse effect on the solvency of
the overall Social Security program.” Colvin added, “We believe that Congress must take action to reallocate a portion of the payroll tax rate between the trust funds to avoid deep and abrupt cuts or delays in benefits for individuals with disabilities who paid into the system while they worked and now need the benefits they earned to support themselves and their families.” Other highlights of the Trustees Report include: • Income including interest to the combined OASDI Trust Funds amounted to $884 billion in 2014. ($756 billion in net contributions, $30 billion from taxation of benefits, $98 billion in interest, and less than $1 billion in reimbursements from the General Fund of the Treasury — almost exclusively resulting from the 2012 payroll tax legislation.) • Total expenditures from the combined OASDI Trust Funds amounted to $859 billion in 2014.
• The asset reserves of the combined OASDI Trust Funds increased by $25 billion in 2014 to a total of $2.79 trillion. • During 2014, an estimated 166 million people had earnings covered by Social
450 small businesses and contributing to $169.9 million in export sales. “This is great news for the Puget Sound region,” Kilmer said. “Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. They create goods made in Washington that are in demand all over the world. The STEP program helps them tap into markets they haven’t reached before and in the process supports their growth and creates jobs here at home.” Calvin Goings, Small Business Administration Region 10 administrator, said, “We are excited that Washington won these investments. The state is home to many dynamic small businesses that are ready to expand and bring their products to new markets and funding from the STEP program will help them make that happen.”

Piping progress Permitting under way for Carlsborg sewer system by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette
Efforts to run a pipeline beneath the U.S. Highway 101 Dungeness River bridge between Sequim and Carlsborg are in motion. Safely transporting wastewater across the Dungeness River for treatment in Sequim was one of the more “key aspects” in designing the public sewer system to serve the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area, Bob Martin, physical engineer for Clallam County Public Works Department, told the Clallam County commissioners during their Monday work session. Martin recently submitted the application into the county for a “shoreline substantial development” permit needed to hang two wastewater force mains designed to transport sewage from the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area to the Sequim Wastewater Reclamation Facility. “You can’t say anything is fail-proof in this area, but to the extent that we can, this is being designed to the highest standards that anybody uses when crossing,” Martin said. The force mains will run along the north shoulder of Highway 101 and hang below the bridge once reaching the Dungeness River
Parking
From page A-1 part of Phase II of the Family Advocates’ playfield project from 2011. The plans originally were approved by city councilors that year but it was later denied at the special meeting at Parks Manager Joe Irvin’s recommendation that gravel for the new parking doesn’t meet low impact development specifications. He recommended grass paver bricks but Family Advocate leaders say the bricks cost three times more and were out of their budget, which comes from donations and grants. After the parking was denied, Sequim Family Advocates returned $128,000 back to the Albert Haller Foundation which granted the funds after hearing of multiple safety concerns at the playfields. Dave Shreffler, president of the Sequim Family Advocates, told city councilors on Monday that one solution is to perceive the parking spots as a phase project. “Take what we leave as 80 percent,” he said. “The gravel parking lot we’d be building you would have to go under the grassy paver anyway.”
in separate steel casing pipes to avoid impacts to the shoreline. Once installed, the pipes will join more than 20 other sewer lines that cross waterbodies within the county. The recent steps toward construction are among many leading to the development of a public sewer system to serve the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area. “We hope to put the project out to bid sometime this fall,” Martin said. “Construction will begin in spring of next year.” Once it begins, Martin estimates the actual construction budgeted to cost about $11 million will take nine months to complete. “That includes $1.2 million of that is contingency,” he said. “We should get bids in the vicinity of about $10 million.” Last November marked a critical milestone for the project when City of Sequim and Clallam County officials signed a 30-year interlocal agreement to allow wastewater from Carlsborg to be treated at the city’s wastewater reclamation facility. Although a public sewer plan and system was needed to keep Carlsborg a designated urban growth area and still maintain compliance with the Growth Management Act and the Department of Ecology, a public sewer system also was sought because of rising nitrate concentrations in the groundwater — a possible indicator that on-site septic systems aren’t adequately treating sewage.
City Councilors seemed receptive to supporting the group in different capacities. “We as a council, when SFA brought this to us, we supported it 100 percent,” Councilor Erik Erichsen said. “Let’s direct city staff to work through our codes or whatever we have to do to make this place work safely.” Councilor Laura Dubois wanted to see how the city could help through its upcoming budget. “SFA has given us an enormous gift with these playfields,” she said. “I think the city can come up with a little bit of money to help with parking.” Councilor Ted Miller said he was concerned over potential costs to city residents. “Remember, 80 percent of the people using this don’t live in the city and won’t be paying a dime for using it,” he said. Miller said he was a fan of the Family Advocates paying for the project but he objects to most of the benefits going outside of the city. He said it would be an ideal project for a Metropolitan Park District. Shreffler disagreed with Miller’s numbers and said the project is more immediate than anything a master plan can address in 5-10 years. “We have a plan and basically the only reason it’s not

From page A-1 officials flagged Clallam County as a “Primary Natural Disaster Area” because of damages and losses related to the drought. “Our hearts go out to those Washington farmers and ranchers affected by recent natural disasters,” Tom Vilsack, USDA secretary, said.

Parking in Phase II was previously shelved due to the grassy pavers’ costs so city staff and leaders with the Family Advocates pursued an alternative — creating parking on Rhodefer Road along with installing an emergency turnaround and a bathroom/storage facility near the playfields. However, the Army Corps of Engineers denied the plans because it was identified in December 2014 as a jurisdic-
The ongoing discussion about parking at the playfields, led leaders with the Family Advocates and city council to meet with the City’s Parks and Recreation Board on Monday to detail possible safety solutions.

their group’s leaders have spent hundreds of hours over 1 ½ years discussing the options and found further restrictions. “The proposal we came forward to you was jointly approved to put it in the spot that makes the most sense,” Shreffler said. “We still haven’t received an answer why in 2011 gravel parking was OK. You allowed that to happen. Now in 2015 under the exact same code it isn’t OK. It doesn’t have to do with gravel. It’s the interpretation of the code by individuals who have changed between 2011 and 2015.” Erichsen asked Irvin if any alternatives were recommended before denying the 64 spots and he said no. Irvin said after reviewing city codes for a week he learned gravel wasn’t allowed and it led to a parking memorandum. He made several recommendations on Monday to mitigate safety concerns such as — eliminating parking on Rhodefer Road, include the Family Advocates as stakeholders in the Parks Master Plan, pursue grants and encourage the Family Advocates to speak with users of the playfields to find shortterm parking onsite that can accommodate drainage, i.e.

Shreffler said parking on grass violates the city’s code and the parking memorandum states it must be cement or low impact development techniques. “Anyone who has been out there on a Tuesday night for a performance at the James Center sees it’s completely unregulated,” he said. “Not only is it not code compliant but there are also chemicals and gasoline and antifreeze directly going into the groundwater,” Shreffler said. “I’d like an explanation from DCD (Department of Community Development) or staff or council or anyone on how this gong show of parking mayhem is better than what we are proposing to build — an engineered parking lot with storm water treatment, rain gardens and LID approved techniques opposed to status quo parking on grass.” New City Manager Charlie Bush said he’d return with a “menu” of options that may involve city funds, other options to be determined and possibly some code changes in regards to the parking.

tional wetland that can’t be paved over. Craig Stevenson, vice president of the Family Advocates, told city councilors that his group agreed to “a false trade” by shelving the original 64 spots for the Rhodefer Road project and spent about $20,000 of donated funds in researching the project. “Maybe it was unknowable but we took it on good faith,” he said. Earlier this year, representatives with the Albert Haller Foundation said they received numerous complaints about safety at the playfields and they felt something needed to be done. This led leaders with the Family Advocates to reintroduce its original 64 parking spot project.

County officials have applied for a “shoreline substantial development” permit to hang two wastewater force mains from beneath the four-lane U.S. Highway 101 Dungeness River Bridge between Sequim and Carlsborg in order to transport wastewater from the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area across the Dungeness River to the Sequim Wastewater Reclamation Facility for treatment.

going to fruition is because you feel you don’t feel you can raise enough money for it, so you’re trying to get the city to bail you out,” Miller said. Erichsen said one of the benefits for the city is that the playfields draw in people. “These people come and spend money in our restaurants, hotels/motels and in the shops downtown, etc., Walmart, Costco,” he said. “That brings in tax money to the city and tourist money to help us with our overall running of the city.” Shreffler said the Family Advocates’ annual Dungeness Cup generates about $250,000-$350,000 in city revenues from 50-60 participating teams. “It’s an economic engine,” he said.

Eventually, all septic systems will be phased out given no new septic systems shall be allowed within the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area once the public sewer system is operational. In March, Martin reported the public sewer collection system was about 70 percent designed, but hinged on more public input to continue toward completion. Under the guidance of the Carlsborg Community Advisory Committee, county officials created and passed an ordinance in May that added the chapter, “Carlsborg Sewer System” to the Clallam County Code in hopes of providing Carlsborg residents with the basic information on the regulations and fees associated with the developing system. “Since then, we’ve gotten a lot of interest,” Martin said. Based on the initial feedback and the location of residents interested in connecting, the design of the collection system is now 90 percent complete. Next, Martin plans to mail connection application forms to all residents within the scope of the public sewer system. The shoreline substantial development permit is one of many requirements still needed, including, but not limited to a conditional use permit from the Clallam County Department of Community Development for the construction of the pump station and right-of-way and franchise agreements with the Washington State Department of

Deputies arrest Carlsborg mail thief About 600 pieces of mail from 200 addresses reportedly stolen Sequim Gazette staff
On Aug. 21, Clallam County deputies arrested Scott James Haynes, a 40-yearold Sequim resident, and booked him into jail for two counts of theft in the second degree, identity theft, unlawful possession of a firearm, possession of a dangerous weapon and on a outstanding warrant for failure to appear, driving while license suspended III. On Aug. 21, at about 3:52 a.m., a citizen called 9-1-1 to report a suspicious activity after seeing a vehicle driving from mailbox to mailbox in the 1500 block of Hooker Road. Deputy Ken Oien responded and located the vehicle parked on private property approximately one mile away and observed what he believed to be stolen mail inside the vehicle. Officer Rick Larsen of the
Clallam PUD reporting a ‘disconnect’ scam in area Sequim Gazette staff
Clallam PUD is warning customers of possible telephone scams where the caller poses as a PUD employee and attempts to collect money through various means. This has happened sporadically throughout the year to residential and business customers at Clallam PUD and nationwide. The most recent scam has a caller contacting business owners indicating that if the business owner does not pay the PUD immediately they would be disconnected. While the PUD does disconnect power for nonpayment, it does have a process it follows. At about 33 days after the customer’s bill date, if the customer has not paid they receive a past due, 10-day notice in the mail. If they do not pay within those 10 days, the customer’s name then goes into the PUD’s phone notification system. Phone calls from the PUD occur on Fridays, but if the automated call does not go through, the PUD makes manual calls the next Monday. Lastly, if after the manual call on Monday the PUD is still not able to reach someone, a door hanger is delivered on Tuesday. This means that PUD customers would not receive a phone call unless their bill was about 45 days delinquent from the bill date. The PUD does not provide any information to customers about their account unless the customer provides verification that they are the account holder. District officials encourage customers to be cautious when providing personal information. Call PUD at 452-9771 to verify the legitimacy of the inquiry.
Sequim Police Department, deputies Bill Cortani, Mike Backes, Amie Bundy and Sgt. Lyman Moores of the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office responded to the scene to assist in the investigation.
On the scene During the investigation Mark H. Cannon was contacted on scene and arrested on an outstanding warrant for concealed weapons violation and transported to jail. Haynes attempted to flee the scene and during a systematic grid search of the area by Moores and Backes, Haynes was located hiding underneath a travel trailer. During a search incident to arrest an open bladed knife was found in the front pocket of Haynes’ sweatshirt. Oien obtained a search warrant for the residence, including Haynes’ vehicle, to look for and seize any and all
related to this investigation, Haynes also was booked into custody for another case involving the unlawful use of a credit card which had been stolen from the mail two months prior. The mail theft case has been turned over to the United States Post Office for review and possible federal charging.
Keeping your mail safe If you believe that your mail may have been stolen in the prior weeks, contact the United States Postal Service at 800-275-8777 or via its website at www.postalinspectors.uspis.gov. The Sheriff’s Office recommends that individuals and businesses check their mail every day or use a drop box, and consider purchasing a locking mailbox in order to lower the chances of being victimized. The Sheriff’s Office also encourages individuals to report any suspicious activity as this helps in the prevention of crimes each year.
Marysville officers arrest Sequim man wanted for burglaries, car thefts Sequim Gazette staff
Police officers in Marysville have arrested a Sequim man and booked him into the Snohomish County Jail in connection with multiple burglaries, auto thefts and vehicle prowls. Deputies of the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office had been seeking FORSHAW peninsula resident Anthony Robert Forshaw for multiple crimes. According to the Sheriff’s Office, Forshaw was taken into custody by the Marysville Police Department at 10 p.m. on Aug. 18 . According to law enforcement officials, Forshaw was driving a stolen 2005 Buick and attempted
to elude Mar ysville officers. After about three miles, Forshaw lost control of the vehicle around a 90-degree corner and ran off the road. Forshaw continued to attempt to evade officers on foot and ran to a field as officers told him to stop. Forshaw attempted to hide from officers but he was taken into custody a short time later with the assistance of a police K-9. After receiving medical treatment for injuries sustained from his encounter with the K-9, Forshaw was booked for possession of a stolen motor vehicle and attempt to elude a police officer. Crimes have been occurring in the Dungeness area of Clallam County, north of the City of Sequim, including the neighborhoods of
Sunland and Woodland Heig ht s. Forsh aw wa s able to gain entry into the vehicles and steal them because the vehicles were unlocked and the keys were left inside, according to Det. Sgt. John Keegan of the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office. Three of the stolen vehicles had been recovered prior to Forshaw’s arrest Tuesday night. Witnesses and video surveillance were used to place Forshaw driving all three of these vehicles shortly after their theft. Forshaw reportedly was driving the one vehicle that was still missing — a white 2005 Buick Lacrosse fourdoor. The Sheriff’s Office reminds residents to lock their vehicles, residences and outbuildings.

State law officers see increase in marijuana-using drivers Newly released data from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission shows that marijuana is increasing as a factor in deadly crashes. The number of drivers involved in deadly crashes who tested positive for marijuana increased 48 percent from 2013-2014. “We have seen marijuana involvement in fatal crashes remain steady over the years and then it just spiked in 2014,” said Dr. Staci Hoff, the commission’s data and research director. That is why the Washington Traffic Safety Commission participates in the “National Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign. Through Labor Day, the commission is letting the public know that extra officers will be out across the
DAVE’S
Pot problems From 2010-2014, nearly 60 percent of drivers involved in fatal collisions were tested for drugs, according to the Washington Traffic Safety Commission. Among these tested drivers, about 20 percent (349 drivers) were positive for marijuana. However, just testing positive for marijuana doesn’t necessarily indicate if a
driver was actually affected by the drug at the time of the crash since marijuana can be detected in a person’s blood for days (possibly weeks) after a person uses the drug. This new data is able to distinguish between drivers who test positive for THC, the impairing substance in marijuana, and those who have residual marijuana in their system from prior use.

The shopping bags contained about 600 individual pieces of stolen mail, from 200 different addresses in Clallam County. United States Postal Inspector Anna Weller out of the Seattle Division responded to assist in the investigation. The mail was turned over to Weller for processing and returning to the intended recipients. Based on the facts and circumstances of the case, an additional warrant was obtained to search Haynes’ residence in the 300 block of South Solmar Drive, Sequim. During the search of Haynes’ residence, deputies recovered drug paraphernalia, stolen mail, a suspected stolen .22 caliber rifle and a homemade firearm suppressor (silencer), made from a used oil filter.

Immunizations ‘through the ages’ Immunizations protect young children against a variety of serious diseases. Recommended immunizations are started shortly after birth and continue at intervals through Guest early childhood. C olumn Immunizations, however, are a safe Jeanette and effective way to Stehr-Green prevent infectious diseases and deaths in all ages. The following discussion highlights the vaccinations that might be needed in different age groups and is not meant to be a comprehensive listing of all of the vaccines needed by any one person.
School age School presents an increased risk for the spread of infections due to close contact between children. Being vaccinated can prevent a child from getting infected from circulating diseases and prevent him or her, in turn, from spreading a disease. When enough children are immunized, those who are vaccinated can provide a shield of protection for those who cannot be vaccinated, including children with weakened immune systems and children who cannot get the shots because of certain medical conditions. Children must be vaccinated against certain diseases to attend public or private schools in Washington. (See sidebar.)
Preteens and teens Whooping cough — Whooping cough (or pertussis) immunizations are routinely given to children at 2 months, 4 months, 6 months, 15-18 months and 4-6 years. A number of years ago, it became clear that too many teens were getting whooping cough due to waning protection from childhood vaccinations. Now Washington requires that children going to public and private schools receive a whooping cough booster shot when they are 11 or 12 years of age. Chickenpox — Two doses of chickenpox vaccine are currently necessary for a child to enter kindergarten in Washington, but the requirement has been phased in over time. New, this fall, all students in seventh and eighth grade will need to show proof of having received two doses of chickenpox vaccine or a health care provider’s previous diagnosis of chickenpox. In the fall of 2016, all students in ninth through 12th grade also will be required to have two doses of the vaccine.

John Richard Stipe November 3, 1942 - August 8, 2015
John Richard Stipe (“Rich”) was born at the General Hospital in Sequim, Washington in 1942 to Mary Loretta (Miller) and William Lloyd Stipe. Raised on rural farms, Rich milked cows each morning before school with brothers Ron, Bob and Bill. He was a sweet, responsible, and successful child who attended Sequim Presbyterian Church, excelled in Boy Scouts to the level of Explorer Scout, and in addition was Student Body President and Future Farmers of America Chapter President the year he graduated from Sequim High School in 1960. Richie was also known for his roles as an active member of the Thespians drama club during his high school years, and could be seen cruising around town in his 1949 Plymouth. At Washington State University in Pullman, Rich joined the Army ROTC. He was a member of Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity for four years. Rich met Carol Cushing during his college years and they married. He was commissioned 2LT after earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Agronomy in 1965 and was sent to Officer Basic Training at Fort Lewis. Rich and Carol then moved to El Paso, Texas for Rich’s Officer Advanced Training at Fort Bliss. The Army assigned Rich to the 30th Air Defense Artillery Brigade in Okinawa where Rich and Carol’s first son Jeffrey was born in 1967. After leaving the Army, the young Stipe family lived in Washington, Oregon and Illinois. During this time, Rich and Carol were blessed with two more sons, Barry and Jason. They settled in Bellingham, Washington where Rich enjoyed significant success in his professional life. His strong work ethic, respectful business approach and friendly personality earned him the position of General Manager of the Whatcom Farmer’s Co-op. Rich helped develop the business from two stores upon its inception in 1982 to a business with seven retail outlets, two convenience stores and four administration offices throughout the State before the time of Rich’s retirement. In 1998, Rich and Jeanne Nelson were married, bringing daughter Kaitlin to the family. A few years later, the addition of daughter Anna also brought Rich great joy. After retiring in 2011 to Arizona, Rich enjoyed raising Anna, reading, hiking, golfing, relaxing at his mountain cabin and re-living his favorite fishing trips throughout the Pacific Northwest and Canada. Rich will be remembered in countless ways; his boisterous laugh, his enjoyment of outdoor activities and, most importantly, his obvious love for his family and friends. Rich was predeceased by his mother Mary Miller Schott, his father William Lloyd Stipe, his wife Jeanne and stepfather Ted Schott. He leaves loving sons Jeffrey (Carolyn), Barry (Monica) and Jason (Amy); daughters Kaitlin Kahl (Heath) and Anna; precious grandchildren Jessi, Jacob, Carollee, Lauren, Sydney, Heather and Natalie; brothers Ron (Candi), Bob (Judy), and Bill (Janet); stepmother Lucy Zuerner; half sisters and brothers Linda Simpson, Elly Reidy, Kristy Cook, Janet Gaio, Mary Lehman, Mike Stipe and Andy Stipe. Memorial services will be held at 10 A.M. at Sequim Bible Church, 847 N. Sequim Ave, Sequim, Washington on Saturday, August 29, 2015. Interment and Military Funeral Honors will follow at 11:30 A.M. at Sequim View Cemetery. Additional information can be found by contacting the Sequim Valley Funeral Chapel. In lieu of flowers, please kindly consider a donation to either The Gleason Initiative Foundation at www. teamgleason.org/donate, the ALS Association Arizona Chapter at www.alsaz.org or the Gideon Bible Donation at www.gideons.org, in the name of John Richard Stipe.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Run SARC like a business With reference to “SARC: Now what?” (Sequim Gazette, Aug. 19, page A-1): I’m a simple man (some of my colleagues say, “too simple,” but that’s beside the point), so I attempt to boil things down to the nub. My question: Assuming that the swimming pool is the primary asset of SARC, what private sector enterprise would have permitted that asset to fall into such disrepair that over one-half million dollars would be required to fix it? The answer: Not one! That’s the problem. SARC is being run like all publicly funded entities with what I call “institutional incompetence.” SARC can be fixed but the repairs must be accomplished using private sector practices. That is, run it a businesslike manner with profit as a motive. I will assume that SARC has equity. Why cannot that equity be used to secure enough funds to repair and upgrade the facility and keep it open? Then, why can’t SARC take private sector steps to expand its clientele enough (and charge enough in the way of dues) to pay off the loan and become profitable? Just because SARC has public backing doesn’t mean that it has to be run like our public school system, the post office and AMTRAK. Ethan Harris Sequim

Thanks for a community connection I read the wonderful article by Alana Linderoth about the re-opening of the Baja Cantina restaurant (“The Baja is back,” Sequim Gazette, July 22, page A-7). The article brought a tear to my eye, so on Friday, July 24, our family went there for dinner. Pulling into the full parking lot we wondered if we’d made a mistake, if the wait would be too long. The polite hostess said it would be about 15 minutes. While waiting, I saw owner Martha Acosta scurrying about trying to accommodate all the patrons and keep her staff calm. Obviously stressed, she looked at the crowd waiting and put her head in her hands. With my best yet rusty Spanish, I told her to relax, everything was OK. In English, I told her the article in the Gazette brought a tear to my eye. She thanked me and scurried off. After a brief wait, we were seated. While eating, Mrs. Acosta came by to ask how everything was. She then apologized for the article in the paper, saying she didn’t want the attention but wanted to express her appreciation to the community for all their support. I thanked her for not moving her family to Chicago and said they’re an important part of Sequim. She almost cried and I almost did, too. I had never talked to Mrs. Acosta before that evening, but I felt like I’d made a friend. And as I looked around the packed restaurant, all I saw were people enjoying a wonderful meal and each other’s company. No one seemed the least bit upset about the crowd or the wait. I think everyone was just happy to be a part of the successful re-opening of the Baja Cantina. I attribute much of this to Ms. Linderoth’s heartwarming article. Thank you, Sequim Gazette.

FROM THE WEB • Several changes are under way at SARC including a cut in hours and discontinuation of annual passes to keep the facility open until Sept. 30, 2016. (Aug. 14) Good … Get it cleaned, get the air handling unit replaced as is required to provide a sanitary facility. Currently I’m not sure how this pool is passing health department sanitation inspections. I do not understand with a non-functioning air handling system how SARC can assure public health safety in this facility. Why is it still open? Even in a perfect case scenario the SARC pool is simply too small and too outdated to serve the whole community as they claim to be able to. Tired of being lied to. — Kathleen O’Connell The air handling unit works; the facility is clean and it’s a 25-yard pool sufficient for high school and masters meets so not “too small.” This aquatic facility is larger than the P.A. pool which serves a larger community. — Gail Sumpter That pool is huge for our community. Never seen the thing overcrowded. The facility is on top of sanitation. Don’t know what you’re speaking of but stop spreading lies yourself. — Jack Drennan Why discontinue annual passes? It’s money coming in! — Robert Porrazzo Annual passes are not discontinued. They are still being sold, but are on a monthly payment plan now instead of being paid in full. That assures if the facility does close that your payment will stop instead of having to process refunds. — Leslee Schultz-Francis
• Experts project a magnitude 9.0 earthquake to occur at any moment and impact Sequim along with all other nearby coastal communities (Aug. 20) No! I don’t like this. We live at sea level, west of Port Angeles. This would mean a major tsunami hitting all the areas all along the straits and coastal areas. This terrifies me! Please cancel this event! It’s always a good idea to have a disaster plan, but after that we need to not be in panic mode, there is nothing that we can do about natural disasters! So “don’t worry, be happy.” When we moved to Sequim 24 years ago this was the headline in the Sequim Gazette, talking about the “big one” could happen tomorrow! — Susie Fisher Richerts I moved here in 1993. Around about 1996 or so I experienced a quake that bowed my windows in and out. It was quick and it was over. I was also in Alaska for the “BIG” one on Good Friday, March 1964, it registered 9.2 on the richter scale, that was quite a rumble. So, “IF” it does happen, there is not a whole lot you can do about it. Worrying about natural disasters is useless. Life happens folks. Planet Earth has been around for a long time, a whole lot has happened since the birth of the planet. Just enjoy each day. Yes, I agree that certain plans should be in force, just like they are in a lot of other countries that have experienced natural disasters. Don’t spend your days getting scared over what “might” happen. — Jessie Rhude How do you really prepare for something like this? Move to the Midwest? Oh no, they have tornados. — Peggy Pattinson
This is downright misleading and seeking to grab attention and sow panic. We all know by now of the earthquake that is projected, and should be preparing for it. But to imply that it is imminent “at any moment,” as though there has been recent, measurable seismological activity confirming that this is happening now, is at best a monumentally poor choice of words, and at its worst a ploy to draw attention to a small-town newspaper. After all, it worked for the New Yorker, right? — Garrett Nobbs The only preparing there is would be to get the hell off of the Olympic Peninsula and Western Washington! When that quake hits it will send a tsunami tidal wave over 100 feet high that will destroy everyone and thing in its path. They’re saying everything west of I-5 is going to be washed away. This quake/tsunami will effect from San Francisco — all of Oregon coast — Seattle. — Jon Chrysler Sr. Just being prepared for and when the inevitable happens is all you can do. Nothing to really panic about. You can’t move anywhere without natural disasters happening. — Cori Cruz They are just giving us worst possible outcome. — Kristin Huemoeller Mooney It’s always good to know certain things. If someone decides to ignore it or do something else with that information, it’s a personal decision. Maybe, prepare for eternity ... if nothing else. — Tabitha Starkenburg

‘PA Players’ to show film, read Carver works The Port Angeles Community Players plan a celebration of author Raymond Carver from Aug. 28-30 at the Community Playhouse in Port Angeles. The weekend opens on Friday, Aug. 28, with a showing of “Birdman,” the Oscar-winning film from last year, which has never been shown publicly in the Sequim-Port Angeles area before. A short story by Carver figures prominently in the plot of “Birdman.” Dramatic readings from “Beginners,” the soon-to-be-published Carver collection of stories, will be performed at 7:30 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday Admission to “Birdman” and the dramatic readings will be by donation. The events are presented by the Port Angeles Community Players’ Second Stage. “Beginners,” according to director Jim Guthrie, is Carver’s original version of the collection “What We Talk About When We Talk About Love.” The publication marks a lengthy effort by Carver’s widow, poet Tess Gallagher of Port Angeles, to right a literary wrong because Carver didn’t approve of the edited version, Guthrie said. Readers are Karen Hogan, Kathleen Balducci, Mary-Alice Boulter, Kennedy Cameron, Linda Cameron, Jim Guthrie, Janet Lucas, John Merton Marrs, Fred Robinson, Jeffrey Tocher and Kristin Ulsund. Carver was credited for reviving the American short story form in the 1970s and 1980s. He lived the last 10 years of his life in Port Angeles with Gallagher, dying in 1988 at the age of 50 from lung cancer.

Mixed results for local teams at first day of race series finals Sequim Gazette staff
Even with “Momma Lynch” in the crowd, sprint boats took center stage Saturday. In the American Sprint Boat Racing Association racing series’ penultimate event, teams from Sequim and Port Angeles saw mixed results as they battled two dozen teams from across the region for top finishes in three race classes at the Extreme Sports Park in Port Angeles on Aug. 22. Sequim’s own TNT team of Paul and Josh Gahr pushed their Live Wire No. 2 boat into third place with strong runs in the 400 Class, missing a shot at the semifinals by less than two seconds. Port Angeles-based Wicked Racing took top honors in that class, with taking the No. 1 boat to a win against Bandit Racing No. 76. In the Super Modified class, Sequim’s Dillon Cummings and Teri Cummings in the TNT Jeepers Creepers No. 99 raced clean but came up short of a semifinal berth by about half a second.
Martins
From page A-1 the swallow species without a place to nest. “Eventually those pilings will be pulled out,” Ken Wiersema, president of the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society. “Once they come out we could lose the entire colony.” Wiersema is among the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society members that have devoted much of their time and energy toward helping the purple martin population recover after fewer than 1,000 breeding pairs were documented to exist in Washington in the 1970s and 1980s. For about 20 years Wi-
Wicked Racing’s No. 10 boat, piloted by Dan Morrison and Cara McGuire, earned a spot in the Unlimited Class finals but a starter problem left them unable to complete the course. Cory Johnson and Gary McNeil in the No. 55 boat won the Unlimiteds. Teri Cummings and the Dungeness Bay Seahawkers helped bring Delisa “Momma” Lynch, mother of Seattle Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch, to the event. Lynch signed autographs and raised some money for charity, and took in plenty of racing action. Sprint boat racing and the Wicked team will be profiled in an upcoming episode of “Daily Planet,” a television program on Discovery Channel Canada. In addition, MAVTV — a network focusing on motorsports — recorded the races and will be airing them in coming weeks. The second championship day — and final race of the 2015 series — is set for Saturday, Aug. 29, at Webb’s Slough in St. John. See series standings and more at asbracing.com.
ersema has witnessed the purple martin population at 3 Crabs rise and fall, but the overall trend has suggested populations both locally and statewide are increasing. Despite their low numbers in comparison to historical records, without fail, a western migration of purple martins travel from near Panama, along the west coast of California and up to 3 Crabs to annually lay four to six eggs. Once arriving in mid-May, the purple martins stay until August. This year, 37 adults were documented to return, which is up from the 3-5 documented in 1999 and the years prior. From those adults, 65 fledged birds were counted — setting a record since the

Dan Morrison and Cara McGuire, racing in the Port Angelesbased Wicked Racing No. 10 boat, complete this lap but wound up unable to finish in the finals of the Unlimited class, taking second overall.
Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society members began monitoring purple martins. “When dealing with any natural system, you expect peaks and valleys,” Wiersema said. “It’s going to take a few years to know if we’re looking at a trend or just an extraordinary year… we’re guardedly optimistic.” Climate change also may play a role in how purple martins migrate in the coming years and the birds’ success. “Depending on climate change, it could push the whole migration of these birds north,” Wiersema said. This year, the purple martins arrived about seven to 10 days earlier than normal — a likely indicator that winged insects also were more plentiful earlier in the season. Like every type of swallow, purple martins need to live and nest near freshwater as they feed on insects, such as dragonflies. Although the abandoned pilings at
3 Crabs are within the salty waters of Dungeness Bay, there’s enough freshwater nearby to provide an active prey base. The location of the pilings are key to the local purple martin population, however, as neither European starlings or house sparrows (both non-native species) aren’t comfortable nesting over water like purple martins. But, similar to purple martins, European starlings and house sparrows prefer to nest in cavities and thus compete with one another for nesting areas. Additionally, Wiersema explained how early forestry practices, such as clear cutting, the depletion of old growth and with it the dynamic structure of mature forests that once provided ample habitat for cavity-nesting birds also has negatively impacted the purple martin populations. “Depleting old-growth

allow them to nest in natural cavities again. “I think it’s an achievable goal, but it’s going to take a lot of cooperation,” Wiersema said. Along with the growing effort at 3 Crabs to foster the purple martin populations, Wiersema also monitors five nesting boxes installed on Protection Island in collaboration with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. Worldwide, 83 swallow species are known. Of those, 10 are documented to be found within the United States. Seven species are found within Washington and six different species, including purple martins are recorded in Clallam County.

forests were devastating to a lot of birds,” he said. “Purple martins are a bird that probably wouldn’t be coming back to this area if it weren’t for some human effort and protection.” As a precautionary measure for when the Dungeness dock pilings are removed and in hopes of maintaining biodiversity, Wiersema is working to find nearby areas to install environmentally friendly pilings to transition the nesting boxes onto. “There’s a saying that, ‘you want to keep common birds common,’” he said. “Essentially, you don’t want to wait until you have very few birds to begin taking steps toward maintaining them because, among other things, it becomes costly.” Ideally, Wiersema and others assisting with monitoring the purple martin population would like to see the birds and surrounding habitat to recover enough to

Third annual event adds night glow, formation planes to 2015 show by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette
Organizers of the Olympic Peninsula Air Affaire hope you’ll finish your summer soaring. The fly-in, featuring smoke planes, formation planes, remote controlled airplanes, hot air balloons and more, returns for its third year on Aug. 29-30. Co-organizer Emily Westcott said the event continues to grow in attendance and programming while remaining at $5 a car load. She said the funds help the event continue each year and keep costs low.
This year, Captain Crystal Stout of the Morning Star Balloon Company, said six balloons, including the RE/MAX balloon, are participating with many of them offering rides at 7 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. She encourages people arrive at 6:45 a.m. to see if a spot is available. “Bringing all these balloonists here is exciting,” she said. “We live in one of the most unique areas to fly with the air current and the blue hole.” At 8 p.m. Saturday, balloonists will offer a night glow with a $5 per carload donation helping the Dream Catcher Balloon Rides program which

Labor Day weekend will be the public’s last chance to see one of the Sequim-Dungeness Valley’s finest venues. Painter Catherine Mix said ARTfusion on Sept.4-6 will be the last time she and her husband Tom open The Cutting Garden, 303 Dahlia Llama Lane, to the public. The Mixes plan to move into the farmhouse where private events and ARTfusion are held with the intent to remodel Catherine’s floral studio in a nearby barn into a painting studio. Mix said ARTfusion will continue annually in her updated studio

moving from a 17-foot by 30-foot space in the farmhouse to a 24-foot by 24-foot space. She anticipates the remodel beginning in late September. As for ARTfusion, it remains the
exclusive event to find some the artists’ work. For newcomer Tuttie Peetz, a driftwood sculptor for 19 years, she’s participated in multiple shows but never with the intent to sell.

“I’m taking an additional direction with my art,” she said. Peetz, who likes the motto of “throwing the rules away” with her art, said her latest venture is using a plasma cutter to place metals in the wooden pieces. By participating in an event like ARTfusion, Peetz hopes to add some legitimacy to the driftwood art form. “I would like to be called a sculptor not a driftwood sculptor,” she said. “My wood doesn’t come just from the beach. It comes from all over.” Jewelry designer Paulette Hill
Is an organic pesticide “safe” to use? Whether organic or synthetic, pesticides kill pests. If used improperly, both organic and synthetic pesticides can be harmful to pets, humans, other animals and non-target plants. The U.S. Department Get It of Agriculture G rowing allows organic p e s t i c i d e s , by Bill Wrobel meaning those that are made from naturally occurring substances, to be used on “organically grown” produce. What are some of the organic pesticides used on “organically grown” produce? Some of the more toxic organic pesticides are: • Nicotine is toxic to warmblooded animals and carries a “DANGER” warning label • Rotenone is extremely toxic to fish • Copper sulfate can build up in the soil, concentrations are toxic to mammals and fish • Spinosad is toxic to bees • Pyrethrin, derived from chrysanthemums, is a broadspectrum pesticide which means it can kill any insect and is toxic to bees Some of the organic pesticides more familiar to the home gardener are: • Insecticidal soap, a contact pesticide that causes cells to collapse, but is ineffective after it dries • Bt, a stomach poison specifically toxic to certain insects • Neem oil, from the neem tree, upsets the insect’s reproduction and is slow-acting • Horticultural oil (there are oils for all seasons; they coat and suffocate insects) • Potassium bicarbonate, helps to control fungus • Diatomaceous earth, used to inhibit crawling insects There are many other commercial organic products on the market purporting to control insects, diseases and even weeds. Usually they must be applied frequently to remain effective and may contain substances harmful to humans, pets or other animals. Whether organic or synthetic, it is the user’s responsibility to ALWAYS read, understand and follow label instructions. “Homemade” organic remedies have not been scientifically shown to be effective and some combinations can be harmful to your plants, your pets and even you! Before you spend money on organic or synthetic pesticides, remember to first apply the principles of Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This methodology promotes the use of traps for monitoring and capturing pests, and using cultural measures and beneficial organisms to control pests in

Bridge builders wanted Craft stick challenge slated for 2015 Dungeness River Festival by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette
Engineering creativity and ingenuity through craft stick bridge building is the challenge throughout the coming weeks. Brad Griffith, owner of Impact Product Development and Marketing, is inviting young minds to participate in the challenge aimed at building bridges with craft sticks for display and discussion at the Dungeness River Festival on Saturday, Sept. 26. “I want to support the concept of STEAM here locally and inspire and engage kids,” Griffith said. STEAM, which combines science, technology, engineering, art and math, is the academic force behind Griffth’s interest to instill the art of creating with craft sticks. “The idea is to get kids to look at their world differently and discover a sense of cre-
SEQ
ativity while learning basic engineering skills,” he said.
The challenge Children participating in the challenge have until Saturday, Sept. 26, to design and construct a bridge. But, to help get started, 6-inch by 24-inch plywood foundations are freely provided from Griffith or at the Dungeness River Audubon Center. After obtaining a foundation, all crafters are encouraged to use craft sticks, as well as materials, like rocks, string, naturally found sticks or household objects such as paperclips or toothpicks, for example.

Readers Theatre Plus (RT+) announces auditions for its October production of original short- and /or lesserknown plays. Directors Ric Munhall and John Cory will conduct the auditions at 6 p.m. today, Aug. 26, at the Lapis Lazuli Studio, 803 Carlsborg Road, Suite D, Carlsborg, across the street from the Carlsborg Post Office. If you have ever thought about getting involved and performing onstage, there will be roles for actors in lots of scenes with plenty of lines, Readers Theatre Plus representatives say. Other roles may require only one scene and a couple of lines. It’s quite likely some actors will be asked to be in more than one play and in a few of the scenes, actors will serve as the “supportive background.” All the plays are short, lighthearted comedies. A few of the plays and roles are: “Afternoon in the Park” — Two people on a park bench on an autumn day. Roles for two characters in their 60s or 70s. “The Something Special Coffeehouse” — Tensions percolate as two executives try the patience of a coffee shop cashier. Five roles for adults of any age. “The Cinderella Story “ — As many as eight roles, big and small. The show will be presented Oct. 2-4 and Oct. 9-11 at the Guy Cole Convention Center, in Carrie Blake Park. As with all RT+ productions, this show will benefit a Sequim nonprofit organization.
Bridge Building Challenge When: 10 a.m-4 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 26 Where: Railroad Bridge Park and Dungeness River Audubon Center, 2151 W. Hendrickson Road. More info: Contact Brad Griffith, at 461-4686 and/or watch www.youtube.com/ watch?v=ZAgLYiVDMdw for challenge instructions. such as tongue depressors or popsicle sticks, where he first soaks the sticks to make them moldable — a style he’s dubbed Craft Stick Bending. Once soaked, the wood can be shaped into any object, creation or toy. In an effort to engage children with this craft stick building and bend technique, Griffith is helping at the Carroll C. Kendall Boys & Girls Club throughout the week. Also at the club, Griffith plans to attend the Back to School Fair from 10 a.m.-2 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 29, to show examples of craft stick engineered bridges and provide opportunity for hands-on practice. “For me, the most rewarding part is when a kid sees the value and unlimited possibilities there are by bending and molding wood,” Griffith said. “When I see a kid light up and get excited about something they’ve made – that’s the best.”

Affaire has brought more attention to the airport. “I’ve noticed a lot more people come and go out of the airport,” he said. “The whole purpose (of the event) is to increase aviation awareness for the community. There are a lot of people who have lived here for years who don’t know there’s even an airport. The facility has so many different uses (like military and emergency-based).”

Stout said she just received a new balloon for the Dream Catcher program, which features a two-seat bench, and plans to debut it this weekend. Also new this year is the Blackjack formation squadron out of Arlington. They’ll fly over tentatively at 11 a.m., Westcott said. Last year they were unable to fly over due to weather. The forecast looks overcast and possibly a little damp but organizers are optimistic. Stout said flying conditions have improved as the summer progressed and she’s not too worried about projected conditions. “We’re going to rely on Sequim being Sequim,” she said. Regardless of the forecast, Andy Sallee, president of the Sequim Valley Airport, said he feels the Air

I love to design.” Hill said she experiments with stitching and beading using her seamstress abilities to create unique weaves and patterns around stones, crystals and pearls for earrings to necklaces.

ceramicist Linda Collins Chapman said she had to overcome some big obstacles. Late last year she tore her rotator cuff and ruptured her bicep while placing a flower pot. “I had a frustrating year,” she said. “I had successful surgery (on Dec. 1) but couldn’t do anything for six months.” She now works one or two hours at a time but since recovering, she’s created a new line of carved porcelain for the show. Collins Chapman said each piece takes months to dry and are tricky to fire
because they are encrusted with hundreds of handsculpted bits. Looking back at her venture, Collins Chapman said, “It’s all about courage. You can’t help creating.” Mix began painting in earnest in 1995 after she left Boeing (one of her jobs was technical illustration) and recently developed a new confidence while painting en plein air, a French expression meaning “in the open air.” “Painting in 2-3 hour sessions (while the light source changes) teaches an artist to design the painting, see color

Three radio control clubs will split their time both days of the Air Affaire. Sequim R/C Aeronauts and Port Angeles’ Olympic RC Modelers host their fifth annual fly-in at the Air Affaire on Saturday with fliers’ $5 entry fees, raffle tickets and donations supporting Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County. The Tri-Area R/C fliers out of Chimacum will fly on Sunday. The Air Affaire continues its Car Show and Shine with any type of vehicle able to participate both days. On Saturday, a $10 entry fee registers your vehicle with a chance at trophies in a number of categorizes and prizes. On Sunday, vehicles are welcomed back for free with no trophies. Throughout both days, airplanes — experimental and not — will be on display, with live music and vendors on site, too. Hawaiian band Naki’i opens the event at 10 a.m. Saturday with sing-alongs and hula encouraged.

the developing stages. You also can enhance your garden’s fertility with natural fertilizers and soil amendments, thus increasing your plant’s health and resistance to all types of pests. If a pesticide is necessary, choose the one that is the least toxic natural pesticide that combats insects by contact or through ingestion. For more information on IPM, visit a plant clinic from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Mondays at the Clallam County Courthouse or from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturdays at the Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road, Sequim. W hen it c ome s to purchasing organically grown produce, keep in mind that it is best to buy locally from a farmer who can tell you what pesticides and fertilizers have been used on the crops. If you grow your own produce, you definitely will know which products have been used! Happy gardening! Bill Wrobel is a Washington State Universitycertified Clallam County Master Gardener.
This year, mixed media artist Rocky Fankhouser is unable to participate after two years with the group. ARTfusion also includes a $50 and under gift shop with items like prints, cards and smaller art pieces. See ARTfusionSequim. blogspot.com for more information.

Garrett Little, 9, of Sequim, took second place in his first USTA-sanctioned 10-and-under-tennis match at the Eastside Tennis Club tournament in Kirkland, Aug. 14-16. At the Eastside TC August Rookies Singles and Doubles Tournament, Little went 2-1 in the round robin-format tourney. He topped Paul Yevtushenko in three sets (3-4, 4-2, 1-0) and Jacob Blanchfield in three sets (4-1; 2-4; 1-0(2)), losing only to division champ Kevin Vemulapalli in two sets (4-1, 4-3).

It’s not quite 9 a.m. on a warming Port Angeles morning and already the Peninsula Pirates are sucking wind. The squad of late teens and early 20-somethings are closing out a preseason practice with wind sprints. And while assistant coaches are urging them on with mentions of on-field victories and NWAC title hopes, new Pirate coach Cale Rodriguez is hoping that his players are staying in the moment. “(I expect) my guys to be focused every day, to give 100 percent,” Rodriguez says. “For me, it’s not winning an NWAC championship.

The Everett Trojans may be the defending NWAC champions. But their new neighbors in the North Division are no slouches — just ask anyone putting together the national junior college rankings. Peninsula College’s women’s soccer squad, winners of or runners-up to each of the past four conference titles, are shifting divisions this year, putting last year’s top two teams in one powerful division. Peninsula coach Kanyon Anderson said he thinks Everett, the defending champs, may take some of the spotlight off his team. Last year, Anderson said, there was a certain amount of pressure on the Pirates as ANDERSON they aimed for — and ultimately fell just short of — a three-peat. “They (the Trojans) are the favorites to win the league,” Anderson said. “That pressure to repeat is off.” Not so fast: With their success in the past four seasons well-publicized, the Pirates come into the season with their highest Junior College Division I preseason ranking at No. 8. Everett, incidentally, didn’t make the national ranking list. (P.C. wound up No. 4 at the end of the 2014 campaign.) Still, Anderson said he’s already heard from his sophomores who have a bit of a proverbial chip on their shoulder. “We’ll have a bit more of an edge; our sophomores are frustrated they didn’t get a championship HAGAN ring,” Anderson said. Helping lead the way, he said, will be Tori Hagan, a 5-foot 3-inch defender from Reno, Nev., who Anderson said likely will anchor the defense from the middle. Also back from last year’s squad is Lexi Krieger (nine goals), Tasha Inong (eight) and Paige Mahuka
Peninsula College recruits include, from left: forward Hoku Afong, a four-year varsity starter at Moanalua High in Hawaii; forward Ellie Small (left) a four-year starter at Reno High School in Reno, Nev.; and forward Brianna Jackson-Vallente, who helped her Hawaii Preparatory Academy team win the state championship in 2014. Submitted photos
(seven), a trio of forwards who finished second, third and fourth in scoring for a Pirates squad that outscored opponents 80-4 and posted 19 shutouts. Krieger (five assists), Taylor Berg (four) and Michelle Whan (four) are the top returning playmakers, but Peninsula loses its top three INONG players in terms of assists. And then there’s the goalkeeping situation. Kasie Lough (seven shutouts) and Emily Flinn (six) are gone, but Manaia SiKRIEGER ania-Unutoa is back. The redshirt sophomore posted three shutouts in limited action. Peninsula’s roster boasts a pair of incoming freshmen backing Siania-Unutoa — including Port Townsend’s Malia Henderson, but as Anderson mentions, “It’s a tough position to jump into.” At a pre-season practice, Anderson mulled his roster a bit, then admitted he could only name five positions on the field where he’s locked into a particular player. “If our players compete for those spots … it will be a fantastic season,” Anderson said. “Our sophomores have grown a lot. They grow so fast in such a short amount of time.”
Newcomers Peninsula’s 2015 recruiting class has some good size and speed, Anderson said. “We needed to bring in more goalscorers, more pace on the wing,” he said.
Peninsula College women’s soccer 2015 season preview Head coach: Kanyon Anderson (fifth season) 2014 record: 15-1-2, first in West Division, 19-2-2 overall; 2nd in NWAC tourney Top returners: Tori Hagan (D), Tasha Inong (F), Paige Mahuka (F), Manaia SianiaUnutoa (GK), Lexi Krieger (F), Taylor Berg (MF), Kendall Howell (D) Key newcomers: Hoku Afong (F), Myu Ban (MF), Audrey Barham, Ellie Small (F), Bri Jackson-Vallente (F), Elizabeth Hornsey Among the top prospects hitting the pitch for P.C. this fall is freshman forward Hoku Afong from Moanalua High School in Waianae, Hawaii. Afong was a four-year varsity starter at Moanalua High, where she was named All-League her junior year and is a likely winner of that honor when the voting is completed in 2015. She was the fourth leading scorer in Oahu with 14 goals. “Hoku is a creative attacker,” Anderson said. “She can do it with her speed, with her dribbling or with her passing. Opposing defenders are not going to enjoy dealing with her.” Myu Ban of Kyoto, Japan, is a freshman that Anderson has high hopes for as well. The midfielder doesn’t speak much English, her new coach noted, but her play already wowed some prep soccer players watching a preseason practice. “She is special,” Anderson said of Ban. Audrey Barham, a freshman forward from Sparks, Nev., was three times named First Team AllLeague, was her teams’ Offensive MVP winner three straight years and was named to the All-Nevada Academic Team. “Her 64 career high school goals tell me she is going to put up fantastic numbers at Peninsula,” Anderson said. Bri Jackson-Vallente, another

The Pirates also see sophomore goalkeeper Nick Johnson back in the mix; Johnson, a Hillsboro, Ore., native, had one of Peninsula’s six shutouts in 2014.
The newcomers Rodriguez and Peninsula coaches were able to secure a number of top athletes from across the western states and Hawaii to help bolster the 2015 lineup. “I believe there is a lot of talent in this group that will complement our returning players,” Rodriguez says. “I wanted to make sure that not only did we bring in good soccer players, but that we bring in good character guys as well.” On the attacking side, P.C. adds Jonathan Martinez from North Las Vegas, who was selected All-Southern Nevada during his high school career and was twice named Player of the Year in Southern Nevada.

“He can score goals in bunches and will undoubtedly have an immediate impact on our program,” Rodriguez says of Martinez. C.J. Harvey from Kapolei, Hawaii, is a second team AllState player who adds speed to the Pirate attack. The Pirates added five key pieces to the midfield with their recruiting class. Among them are Nevada
natives Henry Bernabe, Steven Moreno and Salvador Vargas, Joe Sorensen of Portland, Ore., and Jonathan Vasquez of Porterville, Calif. Vargas was a first team all-state selection his junior season and Offensive Player of the Year and MVP honors his senior season while Vasquez garnered a league MVP award his senior season.

cludes a trio of defenders. Jared Ortiz played for the California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) Division II champions in La Quinta High School in his senior season, being named Player of the Game in the championship match. “He can probably play anywhere on the field as he has a unique skill set,” Rodriguez says of Ortiz. Center back Jose Soto was named first team All-CIF his final three years and All-Regional team his senior season in Ontario, Calif. Demar Stewart, a Wahiawa, Hawaii native, bolsters the Pirate defense on the outside. “He covers a lot of ground because of his athleticism and makes things look easy,” Rodriguez says of Stewart. “He will contribute immediately to our back line.”

The Pirates’ roster also features a quintet of redshirt players who are eligible to practice with the team but may not see action in 2015. The group includes Sequim High School grads Leslie Cisneros and Heidi Vereide. “I’ve always had dreams of playing college soccer,” Vereide said at a recent practice. “The skill level (is up at this level) and everybody communicates more effectively. I’m learning tons. I love the chemistry on this team, too. They’re really accepting.” Just before junior year of high school, Vereide suffered a leg injury — on the same P.C. field she practices on now, no less — that put her on the sidelines for six months. She rebounded to play soccer her senior year and qualified for the long jump and relays at the 2015 2A state track meet. “I don’t know how much I’ll play this season,” Vereide said. “She may be our fastest player out here,” Anderson said of Vereide.
Getting started Peninsula kicked off the season on Aug. 20 with a road exhibition against the University of Victoria. The Pirates then play three games in two days in Eugene Ore., with match-ups against Treasure Valley (Aug. 29) and Columbia Basin and Gray’s Harbor (Aug. 30). Peninsula hosts North Idaho at noon on Sept. 5 and Bellevue at 2 p.m. on Sept. 9.
In March, Rodriguez — a Redlands, Calif., native — became the fourth Peninsula College men’s soccer head coach. He left his position as the assistant coach at University of Redlands, where he coached from 2012-2015. He also served as an assistant coach at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas from 2011-2012. The California native also played college soccer at Redlands, where he graduated with a bachelor’s degree in economics in 2010 and a master’s degree in higher education in 2014. Rodriguez is not only a soccer coach at Peninsula; he’ll teach physical education on a part-time faculty contract this fall. Rodriguez says he came to Peninsula not just because the program has shown onthe-field success, but that
the program gets plenty of support from the college. “This is my passion,” he says, moments after wrapping up an early morning training session. “What else would I rather be doing?”
On tap
Peninsula shifts to the North Division this year to face the likes of Edmonds, Everett, Shoreline, Skagit Valley and Whatcom. The shift also takes them out of the same division as 2014 champion Highline. The Pirates open up the season with a pair of nonconference games against Walla Walla and Highline on Aug. 29 and Aug. 30 in Eugene, Ore.

B&G Club campers take health talks to heart Brain Gain As the members continued their second week of “Kids Take Heart,” our health and nutrition segment continued. The program is facilitated by staff member Ryan Juel, who will take over as kitchen coordinator in the fall. After covering anatomy last week, she spent the week covering the nutrition side. Members learned all about balance and eating right. They learned the difference between a portion and a serving and how different they can be. They were advised to follow serving guidelines for the age and size as well as activity level. They were shown how to balance servings of protein and fruits and vegetables. Each participant worked one on one with Ryan to develop goals. They will work independently on their goals but know that they will have a mentor at the club looking after their efforts and encouraging them along the way.

Parenting is tough Of all the jobs you will ever have, parenting is the most wonderful. At the same time it can be frustrating, exasperating and just plain tough. The toughest part of parenting is probably the discipline side of the job. Keeping up with your child isn’t always easy. Children can be a challenge. They test you, and test you and test you. You really have to be on your toes. Discipline for a school age child is just as important when your child was a toddler. Your role is just as important now as back then. Most of the rules of discipline from back then still remain important. Remember things like … Be consistent. Follow through. Don’t say it if you don’t mean it.
is why rules need to be clear. Along with being clear, it is important for you to be consistent and to follow through. Your role in helping keep your child on track is critical in all the growing years.
Following up
Parenting Matters Cynthia Martin
Don’t back down. Make the rules clear. Expect respectful behavior. If the rule was worth making, it is worth enforcing. Expectations that you have for what your child should do may seem totally reasonable to you and the exact opposite to your child. That
“You Otter Be Saving”
It is up to you to enforce whatever rules you set but that isn’t always easy. Learning to put your foot down with your child is a first step, but there is a lot more than that. The important part is how you follow through. What do you need to do when your child didn’t even seem to notice or care? Children quickly figure it out if we don’t mean what we say and they respond accordingly. Your followthrough is the key.
Robotics Club participant Trey Buckla works on making his Lego creation move.
members met up with other Boys & Girls Clubs and our Brooks shoe partners for a “Run Happy” clinic. The gardening club participants wrapped up their season with a field trip to the Master Gardeners Demonstration site. Both clubhouses made the trek to Tacoma for a visit at the Point Defiance Zoo and aquarium. The boys and girls saw polar bears, wolves, beluga whales, reindeer and sting rays and visited the petting zoo. Back in the club, members were helping staff prepare for the upcoming Back to School Fair and assisted by sorting thousands of school supplies donated by the very generous community. Summer lunches continue to be served at nine sites and we are serving nearly 400 meals a day. Our teens ventured off to their weekly hangout at Lake Crescent and Robotics Club had a great time making the Lego dance.
Follow-through takes time and effort, but without it, it doesn’t matter if you put your foot down or not. When you say it is time for homework, mean it and enforce it. When you say it is time to turn off the TV and study for the test, mean it. Only by your following-through does your child learn whether you mean it or not. She should learn to expect some consequence for going beyond the limits you have set. No matter the age of your child, you should expect respect. Sometimes as children become teens, they begin to assert themselves. They imitate the behavior of their friends and of what they see on television. That doesn’t mean it is OK. If your child is being disrespectful, let him know right away that it is not acceptable. Tell him calmly that he may not speak to you that way. That may end the conversation. However, let him know that the
next time it happens there will be consequences (lose phone privileges for a week, can’t see his friends on the weekend or extra chores). Then, follow through. Do what you told him you would do. Treat him fairly but let there be consequences for disrespectful behavior. It is a lot easier raising children of any age who mind, are respectful, do what you ask, are kind and considerate, and who abide by the rules. Keep up the good discipline techniques now and your life will be easier in the years coming up, beginning now.

At Wave, our number one goal is creating happy, long-term customers. We work diligently on our customers’ behalf to manage TV programming costs, while seeking more choices. Unfortunately, cable television networks continue to increase their fees and require us to bundle their channels together which limits your choice in selecting the programming you want to watch. For more information on the costs associated with TV programming, please SUNSHINE ACRES visit www.wavebroadband.com/content.

At Wave, we offer our Expanded Content TV programming tier to customers at a subscription price that is directly equal to the cost we pay for the content included. When network owners increase their monthly fees to us, we pass through the new rate to those customers that subscribe to that tier of service. To make it easy to understand the passedthrough programming costs paid to cable networks, this information is detailed on each customer’s bill.

CHARLIE has been friendly with everyone at the shelter. He is great with other animals and he would be OK with chickens, too! Charlie may appear intimidating, but is really a happy, friendly boy who just wants someone to scratch his chest and call him a good boy. Charlie does have some separation anxiety, so having another dog to keep him company, or having an owner that can be with him all the time would be ideal!
Due to programming cost increases from TV networks owned by A&E Networks, Discovery Communications, Disney/ESPN, FOX Broadcasting Company, HBO, NBCUniversal, Scripps Networks Interactive, Turner Broadcasting System, Viacom, regional sports programmers, and independent channel providers, Wave’s Cable TV rates will be adjusted in October.
