Quillayute Valley Scholarship Auction total update

After the close of the auction Sunday, March 16, at just before 10.p.m. the total was approximately $88,000, but the following few days after the event cash donations were still coming in and it appears the record was not only broken but smashed to pieces with the total now sitting at around $93,000.

Last Friday at approximately 5 p.m. William Rusk, of Sequim, and a fishing partner Mark Roller from Canada set out for some drift boat fishing on the Bogachiel River in Forks. Shortly after launching their boat on the river, near the Bogachiel Fish Hatchery, their boat overturned and both men fell into the river. Roller safely made it to shore and after throwing Rusk a life jacket called for help. Rusk held on to the life jacket and the boat as it drifted down the river. The overturned boat later was found on the bottom of the Bogachiel River approximately two miles down river by commercial diver Jack Iotte. Local fishing guide Cody Wilson found a lifejacket on Saturday and authorities confirmed it was Rusk’s. Deputies from the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office, volunteers from the Clallam County Sheriff’s search and rescue team, La Push Police Department and the U.S. Coast Guard conducted a two-day search of the river and surrounding area without results. Rusk was not located during this search. Rusk is described as being 5 foot 8 inches tall, 180 pounds, has grey hair and grey beard, and at the time he went in to the river he was wearing a grey checkered hat, tan jacket, blue jeans and green chest waders. Any persons with information on Rusk are asked to call the Sheriff’s Office at 360-417-2459. As of Tuesday morning Rusk remained missing.

Hello, My name is Ryan Ramsdell. I am not a native of Forks, rather Tacoma, but have had the great honor of having been a visitor to Forks and the Hoh Rain Forest every summer for the past 35+ years of my 37 total. My grandfather introduced my father and my father to me, the great Hoh rain forest and, in particular, The Cottonwood Campgrounds on DNR land. My grandfather and father are since gone but my brother and I continue to invite our families each year to camp, river raft, fish and generally relax in the tall greens of the forest as well as make our regular sojourn to the Forks Thriftway and the

Robert James Hutton Robert James Hutton, 61, born in Forks, Washington, on July 10, 1952 passed away peacefully on December 10, 2013 after a short battle with cancer. He is survived by his wife, Kelly; two daughters, Trina Hutton and Melissa Hutton; one grandson, Gordon Robert; mother, Ruth Zinter; one sister, Shawna Hutton; and one brother, Terry Hutton. Robert loved steelhead fishing and football but most of all family. He also served in the United States Navy from 1970 to 1973. He will always be missed and loved.

numerous shops around town. Why the long introduction? I am the upright bass player for a band called The Cottonwood Cutups. We are comprised of my brother-in-law Joel, his brother Jesse and myself. We formed out of campfire jams at The Cottonwood Campground and named ourselves after the campgrounds. Our debut full-length album came out on Friday, March 21, and that was followed by a big CD release show in Tacoma on the 22nd. The News Tribune will be adding a story on Friday, about us as well. Our Tacoma weekly article came out Wednesday: www. tacomaweekly.com/citylife/ view/cottonwood-cutups-tocelebrate-debut-release-newfrontier-lounge/. The music is a mix of Americana, bluegrass and a bit of punk. I am unclear if this would make for the appropriate fare for your paper, but I do know that our name has raised a bit of attention

and appreciation for what the woods can bring and the beauty of the area. If you are interested in previewing the album, I certainly would send you a copy. I considered that this could make for an interesting article. One song, in particular: “The River HOH Down” is about some of the locals (sadly, I

have forgotten their names), showing up to our campsite and jamming with us before driving off. My hope is that it may be stocked in Forks soon. It is up on Amazon.com, CDbaby and will be up on iTunes and etc. shortly. Ryan Ramsdell Lakewood

Forks Middle School Prevention Club Kick Butts

For the past month Forks Middle School Prevention Club students have been planning their second annual Kick Butts Day event. Kick Butts Day, March 19, is a national day of activism that empowers youth to stand out, speak up and seize control against Big Tobacco. They planned fun activities to bring awareness to their peers about the health hazards of tobacco use as well as encourage them to reject the tobacco industry’s deceptive marketing targeting teens and stay tobacco-free. Students were asked to wear boots on the day of the event to “give tobacco the boot.” Activities during each lunch included an information table with handouts, goodies and prizes, jumping rope then breathing through a straw to demonstrate the difficulty of being physically active with smoke-damaged lungs, Pin the Ashes on the Cigarette Butt game and a Tombstone Scavenger Hunt. Each headstone contained a fictitious name and a statistic that is smoking-related. Many students participated and had fun with the activities. Ann Penn-Charles, Youth Prevention Specialist for the Quileute Tribe, joined the students and provided an information table as well to share her knowledge and information. Prevention Club is made up of students in grades 6-8. Their goal is to tackle issues that teens face in their lives such as substance abuse, unhealthy relationships, bullying, dating violence and suicide prevention. Their supervisors are Laura Hahn, FMS counselor and Sandy Heinrich, Readiness To Learn Coordinator/Family Support Advocate. Prevention Club members are grateful for the support

A big thAnk you to all the people in Forks and the surrounding area who generously participated in the recent breakfast and silent auction fund-raiser at the Baptist Church for our benefit! We saw a great outpouring of love which was so heartwarming at this time. We received a generous amount, which will go a long way in relieving the financial pressures we have faced. Thanks also to everyone who organized and worked so hard to make this effort a great success. May God bless and keep you, Bill and Karen White

When a portion of the Forks Firehall sidewalk had to be torn up recently to repair an underground water leak it left an open space of gravel in the firehall entrance area. With the weather cooperating last Friday, Dilley and Soloman Logging donated a little over two yards of cement and Moe Flores got out his concrete tools and filled in the void in the sidewalk.

THE REAL FORKS Bottle That and Sell It!

by Christy Rasmussen Like many of you, I come from a long line of logging industry working fools. They weren’t fools because of the dangerous working conditions or long hours in horrible weather, but because they had no bathroom nearby for their entire shift. I would pass on that job, no matter the money. Then again, I suppose girls are different. I highly doubt very many of us would be willing to cut any of our clothes for back-up toilet paper … and we have twice the need for toilet paper anyway. We’d come home near naked every day. On a related note, it wasn’t until I was in my teens that I realized why my dad’s hickory shirts had the pockets and sleeves ripped off. That was one of those, Ewwww … I would have been perfectly fine without that knowledge, moments in life. On another related note, why don’t loggers bring toilet paper out with them? I imagine cotton flannels are nicer, but still … We have had so many logging and timber industry jobs because of the obvious; we have a lot of trees. You’re going to have check with a scientist for sure, but I think this somehow correlates to the fact that we have a lot of rain. Again, I’m not an expert, only speculating here. This is why I’m confused why we are only profiting off of one of these abundant resources. Why are we not profiting from the rain, people?! We have an overload of rain here, much more than we could possibly ever use. I don’t understand why we are not selling it. Instead of just suffering from being soaking wet for 10 months, we could be suffering, soaking wet MILLIONAIRES! Why has no one thought of this yet? Did I just stumble upon a conspiracy of some sort? Seriously, think of how easy it would be to bottle this stuff up and sell it! Step 1: Purchase plastic bottles. Step 2: Place opened bottles outside on porch. Step 3: Wait three minutes. Step 4: Put caps on filled bottles and send to Los Angeles. Step 5: Charge $10/bottle to all the health nuts for 100 percent pure rain water. In fact, some bottles could even be marked as “Twilight Water”. Mark up the price on those though! It’s so easy that it’s ridiculous. I cannot be the first person who thought of this. Next week; profiting from the abundance of spiders. “They taste like chicken!” Letters to the editor policy

The Forks Forum belongs to the readers of the newspaper. The opinion section is the place where reader thoughts appear as letters to the editor. Letters longer than 300 words are sent back to the writer for revision. We only edit for spelling and grammar. Any substantial changes are sent to the letter writer for revision. While we strive to publish all letters, those focusing on local issues take precedence over statewide or national issues. No personal attacks or unsubstantiated allegations are accepted. Those letters are returned to the writer with an explanation why the letter is not going to run in its existing form. Deadline for letters to appear is noon the Monday before publication. Letters are published on a space-available basis, with time-sensitive letters on local issues taking first priority. There are times, therefore, when a letter might not appear for a week or two. Letters to the editor can be mailed to the Forks Forum, PO Box 300, Forks, WA 8331; e-mailed to editor@forksforum.com; faxed to 374-5739; or dropped off at our office at 44 S.

The Westernmost Newspaper in the Continental U.S.

Commentary

Can you spell RESPECT? I always have had the feeling that my community of Forks is the Rodney Dangerfield of towns, regardless of what happens good, we only seem to be acknowledged when something bad happens, you know, in the words of the late Dangerfield, “We just don’t get no respect.” It started long before I was born I am sure, Forks was known for its hardworking, hard-living loggers, it was known as a dangerous place, when actually in addition to those wild and crazy loggers there were families raising children and voting for new schools. When television discovered us we were the first story on KING-5. It was a story of tragedy a fire that burned acres of forest and it was bad, as far as I know they never came back and did a story of how the town rebuilt and then grew from that terrible fire and got better. Then those terrible tree cutting loggers got together and decided that the kids in town needed a wonderful toy, a bigger than life artifact that could be for the children of the town for years to come and they worked together to get a train for the newly created Tillicum Park, the land having been donated by one of those loggers, any TV crews, I don’t think so. As time went on every time there was something negative about logging in came the reporters and by the time of the spotted owl it didn’t matter what your profession if you lived in Forks you were guilty of something and the entire community was vilified. It was a difficult time to be from Forks. But it didn’t matter to the people that lived here — they kept donating to the scholarship auction, voting for school levies and continuing to make Forks a better place to live. I remember a census worker that came to Forks from

Tacoma — her family and friends feared for her life because she was coming here? Tacoma? She admitted this story at a chamber of commerce meeting, everyone laughed, but she was serious. Those at the chamber meeting didn’t fear that because she was from Tacoma she was a “drive by shooter” but for some reason we were all labeled dangerous. Just before Twilight happened a travel writer came through Forks. He didn’t stop to chat with the fine people of Forks, he just chose to write in his book about travel that Forks was a festering boil. If he didn’t care for our architecture that is one thing, but did he take two minutes to see how nice we were? Then Twilight arrived and people liked us, they really liked us, for no reason other than we were who we were and we liked most of them back. Then a few years ago a man moved here to open a dog sanctuary and something went wrong and again we were all guilty, a woman recently shared a story that she had gone to an event out of town and when the other people found out she was from Forks, they wouldn’t leave her alone and wanted to know about the dog sanctuary. She told them she didn’t know the man that had it or anything about it but they wouldn’t let it drop, again guilty because she lived in Forks. The dog controversy had finally settled down and one of our finest hours was upon us the scholarship auction it was a new record, what an amazing giving bunch of people, and no TV crews came to do a story, but that’s OK for about a day we basked in the glory of the giving of this little town. Then, some poor excuse for a human being killed two eagles and it was in all the papers and on the Seattle

TV stations and beyond and the negative comments were flowing, should we care what the media says? I don’t know, should we care that possibly someone we know killed two eagles, yes we should, not because it gives our entire community a black eye but because it is truly not who we are. Somebody knows something, we are not all eagle killers, but we are all going to be guilty until the person or persons are identified, well we will still be guilty, but that doesn’t matter, and even though the president has a hard time spelling it this community really deserves it. RESPECT. If you know something about the shooting of the two eagles, please contact WDFW Sgt.

Where is Mick?

Lissy Andros, Forks Chamber of Commerce director, is reporting that tourists are coming in to the visitors center and asking about Mick Dodge. So, the VC has made a small display in his honor. Apparently some folks from Texas came looking for the seldom seen man of the Hoh and stopped in at the Peterson’s store, Peak 6, that is located on the road to the Hoh Rain Forest, and who do you think they ran in to there? not Moss Hopper, but Mick! What are the chances? Like Dodge’s show or hate it, it looks like National Geographic is going to do another series of episodes. Quilting and Handicrafts will be on exhibit through the end of May. All ages are welcome and encouraged to visit. Admission is by donation. For further information, please call the Society’s office at 360-452-2662 or send an e-mail to artifact@olypen. com.

Here We Go Again!

Last seasons 10-U Forks softball team was honored in a parade and a picnic at Tillicum Park after wining both the state and then regional championships. Photo by Lonnie Archibald

The 2013 state and regional champion Forks 10-U Babe Ruth girls traveling softball team is at it again. Among the many challenges, money for gear and higher than ever fees are huge issues. We are asking for donations to support our girls in their quest to become back to back state and regional champions. All donations will be greatly appreciated, publicly acknowledged and accounted for. Thank You, coach Andy Krume, 327-3293, coach Grant Romberg 640-1798, and athletic director Shauna Peters, 640-2464.

True Value hosts boot Any one that has ever made a purchase at Bob Stark’s True Value at the stoplight knows that Stark has an interesting sense of humor and his checkout counter has hosted many strange donation jars. There was the “Stop the Rain” donation jar and then came the “Stop the Donation Jar” donation jar, but now Stark is hosting a donation boot and this time it is serious. The soldier’s boot in a Plexiglas case has been placed in True Value to raise money for the upcoming West End Veteran’s Stand Down that will take place in Forks from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. May 1 at the Elks Club, 941 Merchant Road, and is sponsored by Voices for Veterans. The money raised by the boot will go for clothing,

food and any direct services needed by veterans that come to the Stand Down. Voices for Veterans is all volunteer and 100 percent of the money

raised will go to veterans’ needs. For more information about VFV, visit its website at www. voicesforveterans.org.

Got ourselves a ‘Convoy’? “It was the dark of the moon on the sixth of June and a Kenworth pullin’ logs” are lyrics from the truckin’ song “Convoy” and last Friday a string of loaded log trucks made one think of that old CB radio lovin’ song from years ago, as it appears things are fairly busy in the timber industry. Most local logging companies say that they are busy and it appears things will remain

busy for a few more years. With extra logging sites in

operation experienced timber workers have been more difficult to find. Locals also may notice many out of area trucks in town too, as companies were unable to find enough local trucks.

Spartans do well at PA Invite

Coach Pam Gale said her track and field team “did so awesome, it was crazy” at their first outing for the season. The meet in Port Angeles included some very large schools and the Forks boys and girls came in ninth out of the 15 schools represented. The best showing was by Sydney Christenson who won the discus with a 92-foot 3-inch throw. Gale said that Miguel Morales and Andrew Armas each came in third, Morales in the shot and Armas in the long jump. Kari Larson took a third in the

800 and 4th in the 3,000. “We were up against big schools, I tell my freshmen, especially, that this is a growth chart, every week we will get better,” Gale said. Gale also singled out Alan Ensastegui saying he had a great showing at the first meet. Gale praised assistant coach Charles Urlacher for doing such a great job with the distance runners. “It is going to be a good year,” Gales said. “I am just so excited.” The Spartans will be in Tenino on Thursday.

The Forks Timber Museum board met last week and newly elected president Hop Dhoogghe called the meeting to order. Timber Museum manager Linda Offutt has been cleaning and organizing the museum and hopes to have the building open seven days a week after May 1. Forks High School junior Caleb Norstrom is doing his senior project on the history of the Timber Museum and will be working as a volunteer as part of his project. Board member Tom Rosmond brought up the idea of a website for the museum. Other items of discussion included having Olympic Corrections Center inmates do more cleaning up of the grounds; they already have fixed some of the fencing on the property. The Timber Museum always is in need of volunteers and new members. Membership is: $10 individual, $15 family, $25 organization and $50 business. For information on volunteering, contact the museum at 374-9663.

Project Lifesaver coming to Forks? Forks Police Department’s Administrator Rick Bart is looking at the possibility of implementing Project Lifesaver in the community of Forks. The program is a LoJack Safety Net tracking system used by law enforcement departments nationwide. The tracking system locates adults and children who wander due to Alzheimer’s, dementia, autism, Down syndrome and other related cognitive impairment diagnoses. Project Lifesaver operates in more than 1,000 jurisdictions across the nation. This program has been used in the City of Sequim since early 2007 and the Clallam County Sheriff’s Office joined the program in 2010. The program has reduced search times from hours or days to just minutes. The risks and costs of a typical search also have dropped significantly, with an average rescue time of less than 30 minutes. Participants wear a trans-

mitter on their ankle or wrist, this transmitter is about the size of a watch, which emits an individualized tracking signal on an assigned radio frequency. When caregivers notify police that the participant is missing, a team of specially trained police and fire department personnel responds and uses a mobile locator tracking system to search for the missing person. The transmitter is a batteryoperated radio wrist transmitter emitting an automatic tracking signal every second, 24 hours a day. The signal is tracked on the ground over approximately one mile. Each wristband has a unique radio frequency. Project Lifesaver’s battery provides a continuous signal for 30-45 days. Bart is interested in gauging the local level of participation in the project and is asking that families interested in signing up for this service contact the FPD at 374-2223 or by e-mail at rbar.forks@ forkswashington.org.

RAC design and floor plan set City of Forks Attorney/Planner Rod Fleck recently updated the Chamber of Commerce on the RAC rebuild. According to Fleck the design and floor plan are set. Fleck described some of the added interior features of the building that will incorporate wood in various ways. In addition to a wood floor, there will be a “wood grain” paneling that will be created from wood scraps and will incorporate volunteer activity in its creation. The double doors that open up on the performing/multi-purpose room also will be some type of wood with a saw blade effect at the bottom. The concept for the door handles is also hoping to incorporate some type of timber industry tool or item as the pulls. The UW School of Urban Design also will be called upon again to work on sound reflection/absorption requirements. Fleck describes the new building as being “more usable” than the one it replaces and will that it will be fully wired for sound and

For the first time this school year Quileute Tribal School members in grades 7-12 took part in archery activities at the Old Mill Archery Range. Those participating spent about an hour being properly fitted for their bow and arrows and testing left and right eye dominance which can alter if a left- or right-handed bow is needed. Facility owner Bill Sperry says that his range is one of the few that offers lefthanded bows. As arrows whizzed toward their targets Jon Claymore, Quileute Tribal School superintendent/principal, explained that the school likes to get the students out to experience other activities and two younger groups of students were at the Forks Aquatic Center swimming and at Sunset Lanes bowling. The archery range is at the 110 Business Park on LaPush Road and those that buy a membership have access seven days a week. In late June the facility will be hosting Olympic Archery Medalist Khatuna Lorig, who trained the “Hunger Games” actors how to properly shoot with bow and arrow. Lorig will spend several days in the West End giving classes.
