Helping kids get the food they need by COLLEEN SMITH ARMSTRONG Editor/Publisher
For students who come to school hungry, there is a safety net: classroom snacks and the state lunch program. In the past, when those kids leave campus and head home for the weekend, they are on their own. For the last three years, Orcas School has been trying to fill the gap so kids aren’t hungry on their days off. The Weekend Packs for Kids program provides a grocery bag of goodies for students to bring home on Friday. “Because of the design of the program, we try to be healthy but also provide food that kids can make at home without an oven,” said K-8 Principal Kyle Freeman. Items include cup of noodles, juice, milk, cereal, chips, crackers,
granola bars, fruit, tuna and fruit snacks. Some bags are customized for specific needs – one family only eats vegetarian. The pilot program was launched after Freeman saw how many kids were using the state’s free and reduced breakfast/lunch program. It’s a number that has grown steadily. Four years ago, 30 percent of the student body was part of the program. Last year it was nearly 60 percent. In addition, the elementary office hands out apples as a daily snack. “We go through apples by the case,” Freeman said. Islander Rita Bailey was instrumental in getting Weekend Packs for Kids off the ground. She has now handed over the reins to School Counselor and “Readiness to Learn” Specialist Nancy O’Brien,

County council candidate conversations Part two of a three-part series by SOUNDER STAFF
The revamped three-person council was approved by the voters in November. The three members will be elected countywide from “residency districts” comprising San Juan, Orcas and Lopez and nearby smaller islands. Lisa Byers and Rich Hughes are running for the Orcas Island District 2 position. Byers is the director of OPAL Community Land Trust. Hughes is a councilman for Orcas West. He is also co-owner of Ray’s Pharmacy.
Lisa Byers
Sounder: What do you bring to the table that is different from the other candidates and why did you decide to run? LB: My career has been to serve my community through public service. I have successfully managed a complex nonprofit business that develops real estate for affordable housing. I have used a combination of private and public funds to achieve a public purpose, and I have worked with volunteers as well as paid staff to get the job done. This is similar to the county in many ways. Much of the county council’s work relates to adopting regulations related to land use. I have obtained five land-use permits for sub-dividing properties, and overseen projects that required more than 100 building permits. I understand the frustrations of the permitting process, and I have the experience to help make it better.
I have many skills that are the right match for the county council. I have been a frugal manager of budgets – maintaining an organization with less than 6 percent in administration and fundraising expenses during good times and bad. I am a creative and thoughtful decisionmaker – gathering the information necessary to make investments and take calculated risks that have succeeded time and again. And I am a leader who gets the job done – I have repeatedly been elected to serve as the chairwoman or president of volunteer organizations. Sounder: How do you plan to balance the county budget? Do you support renewal of Prop. 1, the voter- approved property tax increase that expires at the end of 2015? LB: It is too soon to make a determination about the renewal of the Proposition 1 property tax increase that was approved in Nov. 2009 by 57 percent of the voters for the period from Jan. 2010 – Dec. 2015. The services supported by that tax increase are important. The tax funds a portion of senior services, the fair, county parks, extension programs, public health, the sheriff and the prosecutor’s office. However, the tax increase was necessary, in part, because of a loss of revenues from other areas. As the economy recovers, it is possible that these revenue streams may also recover. In addition, the county should continue to look at ways to streamline functions and partner with other entities to keep costs down. Sounder: What is the single most critical issue facing county residents?
LB: The biggest issue facing many county residents is the viability of the economy and the community. “How do I continue to live here? Will my kids be able to live here? What will happen to my business? Will I be able to get the services I need to stay here?” There are many ingredients necessary to tackle this problem. We must diversify and strengthen our local economy. The council needs to work with representatives of all local business sectors to reduce barriers to their success, and to promote opportunities, such as local co-ops and OPALCO’s efforts to bring broadband to the county. We need to support businesses by zoning adequately so that they may have space to grow. We must insure that farmers are able to work the land and that producers of all products made in the islands are able to get their goods to market – both locally and on the mainland. We must continue to provide affordable housing, and to support and promote our schools. If young people can find work and housing, they will raise their children here, and we need a diversity of ages to remain a healthy place. Sounder: What accomplishment are you most proud of as director of OPAL? LB: I am most proud of successfully navigating the current recession. OPAL Community Land Trust provides permanently affordable housing on Orcas. When the recession

On March 19, the Lady Vikings traveled to Forest Ridge for a 13-1 victory against the Ravens. Coach Scott Harris said the game highlights included a two run homer by Aliviah Garcia, two for two hitting by Lana Bronn and Alicia Susol, three hits by Alenna Garcia, three RBIs by Kirsten Fowler and two RBIs by Katie Holley. In the first league game on March 22, the Vikings

routed Concrete in a double header at Buck Park. Orcas won the first game 24-0 after five innings, unleashing a powerhouse of hitting led by a Bronn with two for two hitting, two RBIs, including a christening homer launched over the new Buck Park home run fence, followed by doubles from Emily Carter, Aliviah, and Bella Nigretto, who also had five RBIs. The Lady Vikings (5-0) continued the hitting terror in the second game, winning 22-2 forged by Alicia Susol smashing a
two run homer along with an RBI triple. The Orcas lineup kept the pace with Nigretto hitting two doubles/two RBI’s, Bronn a double/three RBI’s and Aliviah with a double. “The season is young but I am happy with the consistent pitching, the defense is more steady and our bats are our strong point, we are hitting really hard,” Harris said. “We have only had one game go past five innings because of the 10 run rule, but we play some of the stronger teams soon. I like
running the program is $8,360. The Orcas Island Community Foundation approved a two-year grant of $5,000 in 2011, $3,500 has come in from the community and $3,000 in food items have been given so far. It’s around $5 to create each bag of goodies. Island Market provides a lot of the food at cost; other items are purchased at Costco. Another two-year grant has been submitted to OICF and they’ll find out in May if it’s been approved. “But that’s just part of it,”
Long said. “So donations are really welcome.” For those who want to donate food, they need to be in quantities of at least 44. Things like Capri juice, granola bars, Ritz cheese and crackers, applesauce, pudding or fruit cups cups and cup of noodles are all welcome. Bailey says Island Market paper grocery bags can also be given. “We will never turn away any food that is donated,” Bailey said. “If we don’t have enough for 44, we just mix and match.” Freeman says there is still
our progress.” On March 19, the Viking boys lost the season opener to the LaConner Braves 11-1. Daniel Briggs scored the lone run for the Vikings in a game that Coach Jim Passer said was closer than the score showed. “We gave up 7 runs in the second inning, but outside of a couple errors the defense played well,” he said. “LaConner can hit the ball and we are still working on our pitching. We walked too many.” On March 22, Orcas (0-2) lost to the Concrete Lions 13-5 in a game where the Lions jumped the Vikings early, leading 9-4 by the third inning. Despite the loss, Orcas bats improved with Devon Stanzione connecting with three hits including two doubles and Rylan Date and Pasha Bullock getting on base. The Orcas golf team played a strong LaConner team that placed third in state last year. “We had a great match,”

Second Congressional District Rep. Rick Larsen (D-Everett), U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell and the White House announced March 21 that more than 1,000 acres on dozens of the San Juan islands will be designated as National Conservation Lands by President Barack Obama on Monday, March 25. Larsen, who, with Cantwell introduced legislation to protect the acreage managed by the Bureau of Land Management in 2011, and again in 2013, along with and U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene (D-Woodinville), lauded the efforts of San Juan County residents to convince the President to protect the land on San Juan, Lopez, Orcas and dozens of smaller islands, including lighthouses on Patos Island, Stuart Island and San Juan Island. Sally and Tom Reeve of Lopez Island and a dozen other islanders formed and led a citizen action group to promote the project, and several of them accompanied San Juan County Councilman Jamie Stevens to Washington, D.C., to advance the cause. Cantwell and Larsen had previously introduced legislation in Congress to designate about a thousand acres of land scattered through the San Juans as a National Conservation

Area, but the bill stalled in Congress, leading them to ask President Obama to declare the lands as a National Monument by executive order under the Antiquities Act. Both the designation as a national monument and as a NCA drew the support of former Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar. The designation as National Conservation Lands under the Antiquities Act of 1906 means that the lands join 103 other parcels of public land as National Monuments. Although there are millions of acres of National Conservation Lands, National Monument status is "much more significant," according to Meghan Kissell of the Conservation Lands Foundation. Other conserved land designated by former presidents as National Monuments include the iconic Devil's Tower in Wyoming, the first National Monument designated in 1906 by President Theodore Roosevelt and known to a generation of Americans as the extraterrestrial landing site in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Other monuments include the Mt. St. Helens National Monument, designated by President Reagan in 1982, the Little Bighorn Battlefield, designated by President Franklin Roosevelt in 1940, and the Giant Sequoia National Monument, designated in 2000 by President Clinton.

How to defend yourself from predators
E
xpanding on last week’s editorial about keeping our community protected from registered sex offenders, we’d like to encourage you to be proactive about your safety. In honor of April being “Sexual Assault Awareness Month,” Friday Harbor Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Services will be hosting a free, five-hour self-defense workshop on April 14 for women ages 16 and up. If there is enough interest, they might offer it on the other islands as well. The class will be taught by certified instructors Sergeant Scott Brennan of the San Juan County Sheriff’s office, Leslie Brennan and Arian Drake-Raue. Visit www.dvsassanjuans.org for more information. Being prepared is an important part of keeping our children and each other safe. Knowing how to spot sex offenders is one way to do that. Another is to have the tools to defend yourself in a dangerous situation. Watch for more on this topic in next week’s edition.

Thank you from Moran From the highest point in the San Juan Islands, The Friends of Moran gathered to say thank you to the staff, volunteers, and visitors who have supported the Moran State Park on Orcas Island. At 2,409 feet, the summit of Mt. Constitution, was the sire of the March 10, 2013 celebration in honor of the 100th birthday of the Washington State Park system. The Washington State Park system, one of the oldest in the nation, has adopted a Centennial 2013 Plan to ensure a future of excellence for one of the most beautiful state park systems in the country. The Centennial Plan will focus on making the state parks safer while incorporating modern conveniences for visitors. Our state parks are facing hard times with budget cuts and waning state support. It is our hope that this Centennial celebration will demonstrate our pride and passion as a community for our state parks. Friends of Moran would like to extend special thanks to pilot Brent McDonald, photographer Martin Taylor, Paul Kamin for his planning and coordination, Gina Burger for her support and enthusiasm, and Rosario Resort for donating the most wonderful chocolate cake. Without the selfless help and support from our community, this even would not have been such a success. Liz Guerry Friends of Moran

LETTERS FROM 4 Foundation, the and Orcas island Chamber Music Festival, who were joined by several private donors – all leaders in assuring stability and growth in our school’s music program. MAG thanks our community’s superb music groups Orcas Choral Society, Community Band, Island Sinfonia and their directors, our school music teachers, administrators and school board who give leadership and support. This year’s concert was highlighted by outstanding performances by our award winning advanced student groups – The Orcas youth Orchestra and newly organized choral group, Acapellagos. Jubilant audience response was a tribute to the students, their teachers, mentors and parents and all who contribute to school music. Sixteen years ago, there were no music classes in our school. Dedicated believers in school music, led by MAG, have insisted, since that time, that music be included as an integral part of the curriculum – available to every child. The Music Advocacy Group is grateful for the community’s recognition of our support of school music. It would not be possible without the ongoing help we receive from all of you in the community who believe that school music matters! Catherine Pederson MAG President
Cheryl Jackson was best choice for OPALCO Job I recently learned that the job selection committee at OPALCO did not choose Cheryl Jackson for the job. Cheryl has been gracing the front office as a “temp” for a year, without benefits. She is capable, professional, friendly, upbeat, and a technological wizard with a strong computer sciences background. Cheryl could ease members’ concerns in a calm and friendly manner, and is a creative, intelligent problem solver. OPALCO employees, both on Orcas and San Juan, often turned to her for help, especially with the new computer program upgrades. I can’t think of anyone who didn’t like Cheryl, or see her as an asset to OPALCO. I wonder why the most obviously qualified, well liked and dedicated employee wasn’t chosen. Cheryl would have been perfect for
the many changes OPALCO is seeking to make, and would have guided any transitions smoothly and competently. My vote, as an OPALCO member, is still for Cheryl. This letter is in thanks and appreciation for all the brightness and can-do attitude that she brought when she greeted us in the front office. I’ll miss her. I hope that some other business or organization will soon be lucky enough to have her on their team. Sadie Bailey Eastsound

Thank you to Food Masters for the seed potato sale and seed swap. Thank you to people and organizations who donated scholarships to 13 young farmers and interns: Cathy Cavenaugh, Michele Heller, Joel and Margaret Thorsen, and others who chose to remain anonymous. Thank you to the San Juan Islands Agricultural Guild for hosting the social hour and to Elaine Kendall and Jean Shearer for serving us all.

Thanks to San Juan Island Grange #966 for hosting the contra dance, the potluck, and the superb film Symphony of the Soil. Thank you to the county council candidates Lisa Byers, Rick Hughes, Bob Jarman, Lovel Pratt and Jamie Stephens, who gave us their views on agriculture. Thank you to representatives of the 12 agricultural organizations and to the representatives of farm-to-school programs who came together—some for the first time. We were all there to exchange ideas and to see the way forward for agriculture in San Juan County. A report outlining summit conclusions and possible next steps will be out soon. In the meantime, thanks to all for making the summit an inspiring and productive event. Candace Jagel Peggy Bill, Sara Jones Michele Heller Learner Limbach Summit organizers
newly streamlined county council. Jamie has distinguished himself both as a volunteer and an elected representative. He is a tireless worker and demonstrates sensitivity to organizational needs as well as creativity in solving problems. He interacts well with his colleagues; he is perceptive, empathetic, articulate, polite, informed, and deeply committed to the county and its residents. Due to the many changes with the council, we need an experienced and proven leader who brings dedication and integrity to the council. This leader is Jamie Stephens. Without hesitation, I endorse Jamie Stephens. Please give him your most thoughtful consideration, and join me in voting for Jamie. Jan Sundquist Lopez Island
Support for Pratt Lovel Pratt is our choice for San Juan County Council Position 1, San Juan Island. Lovel showed tremendous capacity and competence during her term on the county council. She is willing to spend the time and energy to listen, to advocate,
Page 5
and to take action on behalf of our county, our citizens, our local economy and our environment. She is committed to good governance, including transparency. There is a lot of self congratulatory talk that goes on during election campaigns. Often, candidates claim more experience, prowess, and engagement than is true or accurate. In contrast, Lovel is the real deal. She has worked hard and worked strong for our County. There’s no need for Lovel to exaggerate or to tear down her opponent. She’s our best choice, hands down. Kari & Ian Van Gelder Orcas Island I attended a meeting with the candidates for county council at the Ag Summit this weekend at the Friday Harbor Middle School. Each of the candidates was asked to speak about agriculture in San Juan County and answer questions from the crowd. In contrast to her opponent, Lovel Pratt’s knowledge and experience stood out, marked by her clear understanding of the role that agriculture plays in our local economy, her extensive knowledge of county

Lovel knows how to develop effective partnerships, both locally and with state government, in order to better serve the unique needs of San Juan County. She is a thoughtful decision maker who will keep in mind the best interests of all members of the community. I am convinced that her experience, hard work and dedication make her the best choice for County Council. Mary Jane Helsell Anderson San Juan Island As a resident of Lopez Island and a volunteer at the Lopez Solid Waste Disposal District we are casting our votes for Lovel Pratt and encourage you to do the same. On Lopez she was instrumental in helping us “Take Back The Dump.” During our four appearances before the county council to gain approval of our budget, our operating plan, and our board membership, Lovel continually suggested approaches to solve each problem, always making sure the needs of both

letterS FROM 5 Lopez and the county were addressed. She came over to Lopez to listen to our concerns, to advocate for our issues, and to help find solutions to our problems. She puts in the time and energy that it takes to understand the issues, making her a very valuable resource for those priorities identified as important on each island. Lovel’s soft-spoken, intelligent, dedicated energy for doing the homework on important issues, both inside our county and in Olympia, actually gets the
heavy lifting done while others sit by and complain. As others have said of Lovel Pratt, she will do the most good for the most people and the environment. Page Read and Marney Reynolds Lopez Island
Support for Byers I have known Lisa Byers for many years, observed her ability “to get things done,” and seen her grow to become an outstanding community leader. She has a strong work ethic, a keen business sense, and excellent managerial skills. From
her years of experience, Lisa has an excellent understanding of the diverse issues one faces in a county-government leadership position. Moreover, she is a leader who listens, can see all sides of issues, and seek balance in addressing them. Lisa is eminently qualified to represent and serve us all. Bob Myhr Lopez Island
Vote for Hughes I am going to vote for Rick Hughes for county council. Here’s why. I am convinced that Rick will work for the best interests of all the people of San Juan County and the place we live. Growing up and living where your parents and grandparents grew up teaches respect and concern for the people and the place where we live. This doesn’t happen over night. As a fourth generation north sounder myself, I am concerned about a persons relationship to place and people. I ask that before you cast a vote, you look beyond a simple list of accomplishments and evaluate how Rick treats people when others might not be watching. Then show Rick the respect he deserves by voting Rick Hughes for county council. It’s the right thing to do. Roger Adams Eastsound

We will not have a balanced council with both Lisa and Lovel being elected. We do need Jamie to continue as he is the only experienced council member from his district. Believe me, I do appreciate what both Lovel and Lisa have done for our community and their abilities, but at the same time a balance of how we go forward is imperative for the overall health of our islands. How long can we continue to ask the “middle class” to support the issues that are eroding their ability to continue to stay here? Those who have ample resources may not be concerned. I wholeheartedly support Hughes and Jarman because of their background and experience. They will come into office with a fresh yet open approach as to address what will be best for the islands overall. Velma Doty Eastsound
Concern about PAC Have you noticed the nasty political attacks coming from blogs on the right? Now there’s a Political Action Committee.

money and spending big bucks to make sure the three candidates not endorsed by the Democrats win this race. How is this not a Republican endorsement? How is this non-partisan? Meanwhile, the letters to the editors and the bloggers just keep on telling us how we’re all supposed to keep quiet and be good little non-partisan candidates and voters. The county’s prosecuting attorney has repeatedly stated the charter only mandates the election itself be non-partisan. Meanwhile, the candidates are free to be endorsed. The parties are free to give their endorsements. It’s called free speech. That’s how it works in all the other charter counties in Washington state that have non-partisan elections. So please quit the posturing and just drop the fig leaf already. Howie Rosenfeld Friday Harbor
response to rosenfeld Your letter posted in local papers has come to our attention. We are grateful to you for having posted a picture of our email, written to our neighbors and friends on March 9th. There is nothing in our email to indicate an endorsement by a political party, but rather a group of concerned islanders who are distressed about the future direction of our county. Your letter appears to be yet another attempt at divisive partisan politics. We wish to clarify that the San Juan Republican Party did not ask us if they could post our email to their site, nor are we members of the San Juan Republican party. We are not officers of the PAC, however, we are supportive of Trust Islanders! Dave and Jane Cable San Juan Island
Crossroads lecture on the ‘Big One’ by CALI BAGBY Staff reporter
The earthquake is coming. Experts just don’t know when it will hit. They know it’s happened before. In fact, magnitude 9 Cascadia earthquakes occur here from intervals as short as 300 years and as long as 800 years. The last “megathrust” Cascadia earthquake occurred in 1700. Recent studies by Oregon State University geologists say there is a 10 percent chance that one could happen in the next 50 years. If that prediction makes you want to run for the mainland, stay in your chair because Tim Walsh, chief hazard geologist of the Washington Department of Natural Resources, has good news. “Most people will survive the earthquake by doing the right thing,” Walsh said. “Surviving is possible. Absolutely.” On Sunday, April 7, 2 p.m at Orcas Center, Walsh will explain just what a “megathrust” Cascadia earthquake is in his lecture “The Next Big One: Earthquake and Tsunami Risks in the San Juan Islands.” There will be a Q&A session and a reception. The talk is part of the Crossroads Lecture Series, which brings a variety of speakers to Orcas Island to share their expertise on timely and important issues. Walsh will discuss the risks and potential impacts of such a major earthquake, the resulting tsunami, and how it will affect islanders. The 45-minute lecture will also cover how residents will survive this disaster. Walsh estimates that islanders will have an hour and a half to get out of harm’s way, which essentially means getting to higher ground. “People should not afraid, but should be aware of all of those kinds of things that go wrong and put them in perspective,” Walsh said. “A Cascadia subduction zone earthquake is a rare event, but it’s best to know what to, not dwell on the event.” Walsh earned bachelors and masters degrees in geology from UCLA, and has been practicing geology in Washington for more than 32 years and has taught at South Puget Sound Community College for nearly 30 years. Walsh has performed geologic mapping in many parts of the state – as well as tsunami hazard mapping, active fault characterization, and landslide and abandoned coal-mine hazard assessments. This is his third lecture in the islands and he recalls most islander being receptive to his warnings. “Are we ready for the next big one?” Walsh said. “To paraphrase George Bernard Shaw, we learn from experience that we don’t learn from experience.” Tickets are $10 at Darvill’s Bookstore, at www.orcascrossroads.org or at the door. Some complimentary tickets are available in advance at the Senior Center.

hit in 2009, we had completed construction of the first phase (18 homes), of a 32-home neighborhood, but did not yet have all the funding in place for the second phase. We had families ready to purchase most of the 14 homes, and a construction crew of 10 fulltime workers who needed the work. I led the board of trustees through a thoughtful, thorough and inclusive process that resulted in taking on substantial debt in order to finish the project. We kept 10 people employed through the worst part of the recession. We sold all 14 homes. And by the end of 2012 we had funds in hand to pay off the debt. In addition, late in 2010, the owner of an 1,100 square foot house asked if OPAL would move their house, so they would not have to demolish it. The challenge? It had to be moved within two months and we had never moved a building before. We dove in, figured it out, and moved the building. That spawned a new approach to achieving OPAL’s mission. In April, OPAL will move its fifth house. Sounder: What have you learned during this campaign? LB: I have learned that many people do not know what the council does or what county government does. I have learned that people have lost trust in the county’s decision-making process. I have learned that there appear to be deep divides about land use, and yet people from all perspectives share a common commitment to care for this place and this community. I have learned that people are looking for strong leadership that is inclusive and respectful of their time and ideas. I have known, but have also gained a deeper understanding of the wide range of lifestyles lived in the islands. I have heard time and again how much people value that diversity, and do not want to lose it. On every island I have met creative, dedicated people who want these islands to thrive. I have learned that the answers to our problems will come from listening to and productively engaging county residents. Time and again we have figured out how to do hard and extraordinary things that serve as models for other communities. I am running for council because I want to help lead the county to tap into the creativity of our residents
Rick Hughes Sounder: What do you bring to the table that is different from the other candidates and why did you decide to run? RH: My roots in these islands go three generations deep. In many ways, who I am and how I see the community is grounded here in this county. Not only have I seen what works and what doesn’t in local government, I understand why it did or did not work. I run a small business in Eastsound, but also one of vital importance to my neighbors. We depend on each other. I know how to efficiently run an organization. I’m also a concerned citizen; I’ve witnessed and been a part of people working together to solve problems such as the countywide drug take-back program. My experience, initiative and judgment can effectively make a difference. As a current county council member I have been fair, honest and transparent, I’ve worked for better communications and interactions between county employees (I have been actively trying to meet each and every one of them) and their fellow citizens of the county. And I’ve worked to have county government be more responsive to the public. Sounder: How do you plan to balance the county budget? Do you support renewal of Prop. 1, the voter-approved property tax increase that expires at the end of 2015? RH: I am trying to ensure we continue on the fiscal progress we’ve seen for 2012 and begun in 2013. I will continue to look closely at costs, but I will continue to evaluate opportunities, because one reasonable opportunity lost could mean several jobs to our community and corresponding revenues to the county. I can make the hard choices. In my career I’ve made some very difficult decisions based on economic conditions. But I know that smart people working together can create conditions ripe for economic growth by encouraging new ideas, development of new companies and an influx of existing ones. In general, I am not in favor of any supplemental taxation unless other avenues have been explored and applied. Regarding Prop.1: This is a hypothecated tax where the proceeds can only be used for 11 specific purposes. A thorough evalua-

Sounder: What is the single most critical issue facing county residents? RH: There are several critical issues, many of which are interdependent. However, the single most critical issue is economic development, or in a single word, jobs. The recession that began in 2007 has shown that an economy like ours, based primarily on tourism, construction and real estate is hit hard with any prolonged economic downturn and it takes that much longer to recover. We need local jobs that people can live on; jobs for farmers, jobs for carpenters and tradesmen, jobs for skilled professionals and retailers and entrepreneurs. We need to ensure that our limited finances remain here in the county. In essence, we need a multi-dimensional economic system that can provide a framework from which we can sustain our
traditional industries of tourism, construction and real estate. I see my role as council member to help redesign county government with a customer service focus that assists local businesses thrive by making it easy to work with agencies and by constructing clear regulations where needed. Sounder: What have you been able to accomplish in your time on the council? RH: I feel that we have been working very hard over the last few months to maintain county government in an interesting transitional period. The council
has successfully implemented CRC Prop. 2 and 3, we have set the groundwork for a timely hiring process for the new county manager and executed a successful Community Conversation dialog on San Juan, Orcas, Lopez and Shaw. We have worked hard to provide representation to all county boards, established a docket for much needed updates to he Comprehensive plan for the Economic Development and Transportation elements, began a process to evaluate and simplify county code, process and fee structure. Personally, I have made an attempt to meet with as many departments and staffers as possible, so I can better understand the needs of staff and how each aspect of county government works first hand. Sounder: What have you learned throughout this eight-month campaign process?
RH: The eight-monthplus campaign process has afforded me the opportunity to meet amazing people, see each of the other islands from a different perspective and to better appreciate two sides of an issue. Throughout this process, I’ve seen the divisions within the county, yet I’m hopeful. I’ve heard the angry words, yet I’m hopeful, I’ve seen families struggling to get by, and even then I’m hopeful. Because this long, long campaign season has shown me time and again the spirit of neighbor helping neighbor, of our county’s remarkable sense of belonging and sense of family. And from this sense of neighbors and belonging, we can close the divisions, soften the words and ease the struggle. Am I looking forward to the campaign to end? Indeed I am. Because I’m looking forward to the hard work just beginning.

HS sailing team in Orcas sailors win San Diego regatta Seattle regatta The Orcas High School sailing team traveled to the big city for a long weekend of practice and racing in mid-March.The weekend started with a Friday afternoon practice with the UW sailing team. Sam Parish (OIHS ‘09 Alumni) and the rest of the UW team had boats rigged and ready to get on the water for some team racing. Tuning tips and race strategies were discussed as well. When the team got back to shore, ISAF rules writer Dick Rose led a fortyfive minute rules Q&A for the team. “His definitions and diagrams of the rules in action helped all of us a lot,” said Orcas coach Burke Thomas. Saturday brought cold temperatures, rain and wind and a long day on the water. The team had a couple capsizes, but sailed very well, in the puffy unpredictable breeze. Twelve races were completed by the end of sailing Saturday. Seniors Rhys Thompson and Annie Ryder grabbed a couple first place finishes in a fleet of 26 boats. Sunday was cold but had clear skies and 10 races were completed, in a shifty southwest wind. Orcas grabbed 4th overall in the gold division and second in the silver division.

Seven boats all of the same design competed over three days.

Soling is a complex sloop with spinnaker with a crew of three.

Conditions ranged from 13 knots on day one to two to eight knots on days two and three. Swells from the Northwest at two to six feet with wind waves one to two feet from the Southwest made maintaining boat speed very difficult.

Plenty of room in state park to grow Washington’s newest export
(ASKED IN EASTSOUND)
by COOLEEN SMITHWICK ARMSTRANGE
Now that it’s legal in Washington state, a variety of organizations are jumping on the marijuana bandwagon. For the struggling state parks, it’s a no-brainer. With plenty of space and staff with horticulture knowledge, it’s the perfect remedy to their financial woes. “We’ll be growing it on the land where we recently cut down trees due to root rot,” said Moran State Park Ranger Mary Jane Ganja. “It will be in a locked green house so young people or thieves can’t access it.” On Election Day last November, Washington voters lived up to their progressive reputation by passing Initiative 502 to legalize recreational use of marijuana. The initiative passed with 55 percent statewide approval and an overwhelming 68 percent support in San Juan County, the largest margin in the state. The park plans to sell its new product to medical marijuana dispensaries as well as visitors to the park. With a valid ID, campers can purchase marijuana to enjoy during their vacation in the park, as long as they keep the smoke in their tent. “Are we concerned about drug use and crime? Of course. We always have been. But having this state-regulated helps us enforce the rules,” said Undersheriff Bryce Dustpan. “It’s the same as alcohol: don’t consume it in public and don’t smoke pot and drive.”
“Is this the Eastsound mayor election?” As the first state park to launch a pot initiative, staff is hopeful that it will not only provide a revenue stream, but will bring new visitors to Orcas Island as well. “We hope it will entice a wide variety of tourists – from young college kids to retired CEOs,” Ganja said. “It will be a big boon for our local economy. We expect other state parks to follow our revolutionary business model.”
Islanders speak out against art
by CALL ME BABY
An angry mob of Orcas islanders gathered on the streets of Eastsound last night to protest the “wealth” of arts in the community. They held signs on Tuesday night as they walked Main Street. The posters read slogans like “Happiness and joy are over-rated,” and “Turn down the music and turn up anything – but music.” “Music and art makes our children too smart and too inspired,” said protestor Stan Darlington, who is also owner of the big-
gest ear-plug factory in the nation. “What we need is quiet. More quiet.” “What will they do when they go to college?” asked another angry islander from the crowd of five. “The arts aren’t appreciated on the mainland, this island ‘support’ gives kids a false sense of art appreciation.” This group of anti-art activist were inspired to rise up after watching various YouTube videos of the WallStreet protest occurring across the globe.
STREET TALK
“We thought, hey, people are standing up for what they believe in so why can’t we,” said Susan Sharings, a local activist. Her spin on the protest seemed to be unique from her fellow signcarriers. “We want to empower island children to get back to a more primordial time,” she said. Sharings explained that early humans had no musical instruments and that is why our species landed at the top of the food chain. She worries that if kids are too busy “playing the flute” they won’t be able to catch and eat the nearby deer. “Evolution is okay,” she said. “But it’s getting out of hand.” Critics of this anti-music movement say that the protest is just plain ridiculous. “Without music there would be no science,” said retired Professor Allen C. Coddler. “Without science there would be no … humanity. And I don’t mean that we as a people would not exist. I just mean that we would not be the same … emotionally or intellectually.” School district officials say that art is important to brain growth development in children and that
it fosters group dynamics and socializing and provides enjoyment for their entire life. According to Jackie Silberg, author and early childhood specialist, music helps develop children’s language skills, self-esteem, listening and math skills, stimulates children’s brain connections, relieves stress and increases creativity. Darlington’s response to these “so-called” benefits of art is, well, not positive. He said it’s just another example of mainstream media using “fancy” language to make a point. “The truth is that art is a really vague term. What does art even mean?” Darlington asked. “If someone could give me a real definition, I’d give them a $100. And it would be the most money an artist ever made.” As the sun went down, the protestors headed home and started discussing more creative fonts to use on their signs. “I’m thinking of using macramé to make my words pop,” said one man. “I want to bejewel mine,” said another woman as she headed into the darkness.

he kids don aprons, get out measuring cups and spoons and preheat the ovens. They are ready to create masterpiece meals. And they are ready to win. The Student Chef Competition gives island youth a chance to whip up tasty delights and receive awards. Think of Orcas Has Talent, but with food in place of music and magic tricks. “It’s the sweetest thing on earth,” said Madie Murray, director of the Farm to Cafeteria program at the school district. This Fourth Annual Student Chef Competition is held at the Orcas Island School, Saturday, April 6 from 9 a.m. to about 3 p.m. with a taco feast dinner following for a donation of $10. This year’s recipes must be an entree item from Mexico that could be prepared and served as a school lunch. Students are encouraged to explore all the areas of Mexico because ingredients and seasonings vary from region to region. So far students have submitted reci-

pes like quinoa taco salad, Mexican egg cups, Mexican meatballs, chili rellenos and chile and lime steak tacos with black bean tomatillo salsa dip. The event was inspired by Orcas School student Iris Parker-Pavitt, who planted the idea in Murray’s head back in 2009. “This year we are going to have a pretty full slate and a lot of recipes,” Murray said. “More entrees from the higher grades then before.” This year also marks the first time that the competition will be followed by a dinner. “All of the contestants can come and celebrate their efforts,” Murray said. “It’s quite an effort on everyone’s part.” Local judges will determine the winning entry, which must include at least three items that are grown or raised locally. The dish must “look inviting, taste good and have nutritional value” according to the competition guidelines. “I am excited and nervous,” said Mijitas restaurant owner Raul Rios, who will be judging the elementary division. “It’s my first time being a judge. It’s going to be so fun.” The competition also gives kids a chance to

gain confidence about their cooking. Previous contestant Arla Sutton won two years at the competition and then was one of 54 students ages eight to 12 who won a trip to the White House to attend the very first “Kids’ State Dinner” hosted by First Lady Michelle Obama. Her recipe for salad noodle wraps won over all other entries in the entire state of Washington. “It could take you to great heights,” said Murray about how the competition helped Sutton hone her skills. “You never know where it will take you.” Contestants in kindergarten through sixth grade will compete in the morning. Students in seventh to 12 grade will perform in the afternoon. The awards will be presented at the end of each segment. There will be an opportunity for the audience to taste some of the dishes. “It’s great to be there and smell all this wonderful food,” Murray said. “And to see how the students are so intent.” To view last year’s competition, visit www. youtube.com/watch?v=DfZP_PGKPQw.

OCS ‘Carmen’ kicks off season kids go skiing
Clear skies and snow were natural ingredients of the Orcas Christian High School’s trip to Stevens Pass on March 7 and 8. Some of the students took advantage of instruction to learn how to improve to a higher level of expertise while other students learned to master the beginning strategies of snowboarding. Elliot Claus is pictured above skiing in shorts.

The 2013 Summer Encore line up from the Met: Live in HD is opening at Orcas Center on Friday, June 28 at 7:30 p.m. with the most popular Metropolitan Opera production of all time, Bizet’s “Carmen.” All Summer Encores have a shorter run time than the regular season screenings and are shown on Friday evenings at 7:30 p.m. Peter Gelb, artistic director of the Metropolitan Opera and creator of the Met: Live in HD phenomena, has selected five of the most popular Met productions and added a sixth which stars one of the great divas, the audience favorite Renee Fleming. Carmen: June 28. Elina Garanca, pictured at left, is Carmen the seductive gypsy of the title. “It is about sex, violence, and racism-and it’s corollary: freedom,” says British director Richard Eyre. Il Trovatore: July 12. This stirring production of Verdi’s intense drama which is considered to be the composers most melodically rich score. Armida: July 26. Rossini’s mythical story of a sorceress who enthralls men in her island prison. La Traviata: Aug. 2. Natalie Dessay puts on the red dress to star as Verdi’s most beloved heroine, the Parisian courtesan Violetta Valéry, in Willy Decker’s stunning production. Turandot: Aug. 30.

Tickets for the Summer Encores from The Met: Live in HD are $18 for adults, $13 students, $2 off for Orcas Center members, and may be purchased at www.orcascenter. org or by calling 376-2281 ext. 1 or visiting the Orcas Center Box Office.
The Staxx Brothers blend soul and rock by CALI BAGBY Staff reporter
Singer Davin Stedman said that the Pacific Northwest may not seem like the best place to create rock and soul, but once you dig just a bit beneath the surface a wealth of great music history will be uncovered. Legends like Jimi Hendrix and Quincy Jones have roots in Seattle. “It’s that rich history of music that we have tapped in to – really soulful rock and roll,” said Stedman, shown right. “We’re going in the direction we wish rock and roll had went.”
The Staxx Brothers will be performing their unique sound on Friday, March 29 at 7:30 p.m. at The Island Hoppin’ Brewery. They are a high energy American band, hailing from Seattle, Wash., that has spent the last seven years crafting their sound. They play music infused with the classic tunes they love, but intermingled with more current threads of sound like rapping over a funk beat. Stedman said it just makes sense to blend the now with the then. “If Mick Jagger came out singing in 2013 he would be rapping,” said Stedman.
The Staxx Brothers blend not only eras, but explore different themes in their lyrics. Their latest album is inspired by science and science fiction, exploring ideas like this: static electricity

from your TV is made up as free atoms bouncing around since the big bang. And its not only their lyrics that are eclectic – they have taken their imaginations into the music video world creating everything from zombie videos to silent films. Stedman said many of their fans can be seen in these videos. “A lot of our friends start out as fans, that’s the kind of band we want to be,” said Stedman. “We’re excited to come to the islands to make new friends.” At the upcoming show, islanders will get a chance to hear a blend of older Staxx Brothers tunes as well as brand new songs they will perform for the first time. “We try to take people on a journey,” Stedman said.
