Teaming for Resiliency wins big On May 21, three members of the Forks Community Coalition attended the Spring Youth Forum. At the forum, approximately 40 youth prevention teams from across Washington met at the Great Wolf Lodge to present their programs. The youth were then divided up into eight different rooms with five youth programs being presented in each room. In each room there was an overall winning youth team based on the following criteria: innovation, sustainability, impact, presentation and professionalism, and collaboration and partnerships. The Forks youth team consisted of Adan Almazon and Jeffrey Schumack with their adult advisor Phillip Sifuentes. Their presentation was in regards to part of the Forks Coalitions Strategic Plan and was titled Teaming For Resiliency. This program was the brainstorming idea of sev-

eral coalition members with a big influence from Mayor Byron Monohon. Teaming For Resiliency involves positive community bonding opportunities by having adult volunteers share skills with youth. The abovementioned youth are part of an advisory committee that has been working on the program components. Their presentation was in regards to the need for this program and the steps they are taking to promote positive community bonding. Once a room winner was selected, all teams met for a banquet where awards were given for: innovation, sustainability, impact, presentation and professionalism, collaboration and partnerships, and a grand champion team which received a $5,000 check to attend Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America National Conference in Washington, D.C. There the

team will meet with their local congressmen to promote prevention efforts. Almazon and Schumack won the best prevention program for their room of five teams, which is quite an accomplishment with

just two youth presenting (as most teams had eight or more youth presenting). What is even more exciting is that they also won the Grand Champion Award of $5,000! Many said their presentation had

people in tears. They have made great connections and several people want to come to Forks to be a part of the program, including Miss Washington and Russell Sherman from the Seahawks, to name just a few.

move meant rearranging the completed Fourth schedule by changing Moonlight Madness to start at 6 p.m. and end at 10 p.m. with the fireworks show starting at around 10:20 p.m. in Tillicum Park. In a phone interview on Friday with Judy at “Entertainment Fireworks” in Olympia she was 90 percent sure she could locate someone for July 5 to do the show. She explained that their company is one of only two in the state that does big fireworks shows, and they had 80 shows and technicians scheduled for July 4. The company also promised to add some special extras to the fireworks package that will be displayed on July 5. By Monday morning, a pyro technician had been located to do the show in Forks. The pyro technician who had done the Forks shows for over 15 years, as well as Quileute Days fireworks shows, was Neil Turner of Hoodsport. He was born in Port Angeles and had a long career with WDFW. He died in March at the age of 50. The Forks Old-Fashioned Fourth of July decided to make a donation to the Hoodsport Volunteer Fire Department in Turner’s memory.

What would the Fourth of July be without its fireworks show? Well, Forks just about got to find out. A series of recent events sent Forks OldFashioned Fourth of July organizers scrambling for an answer. Last week Fourth of July president Mark Soderlind was informed by the company that has supplied the fireworks for the Fourth’s fireworks show for over 15 years that the pyro technician that was scheduled to do the show in Forks had died. Since the shows are booked months in advance and there is not a huge abundance of pyro technicians sitting around, the company told Soderlind that all the people they hire were busy and they were going to have to refund the money for the fireworks show. On Friday, Soderlind called an emergency meeting of members of the Fourth of July committee, the City of Forks, Forks Chamber and West End Business together to work out an alternate plan. Soderlind explained that there are strict licensing requirements and that licenses don’t cross state lines. Forks Old-Fashioned Fourth of July president Mark The group came to decide that the only thing to do was to move the fireworks to July 5 but this Soderlind. Forum photo

In 1968, Mom and Dad picked Chuck up at Fort Lewis and brought him home. What a reunion! We were living in Kelso at the time but the next day we were in Forks and I got the biggest hug ever (so did Bob). Many tears, too. Stepping back and looking into those big blue eyes, I knew he was the not the same young boy who had left home. That afternoon, Mom had prepared his favorite meal of a huge pot roast with all the trimmings. The best meal he had in years. After a couple of months and Chuck had settled in, and we had moved back to Forks, the first order of business was for Bob to bring Chuck into Port Angeles to buy his dream car.

Marjorie “Margie” M. Marshall Grondahl Perkins, 70, of Poulsbo, Washington, went home to heaven on May 12, 2014. She was born to Harry Lee Marshall and Dorothy Geneive (Coller) Marshall on August 28, 1943, in Wenatchee, Washington. She graduated from Port Townsend High School in 1962. After high school, she held numerous jobs, including working at the Port Townsend movie theater, bakeries in Port Townsend and Seattle, house painting and as a dental receptionist in Port Townsend. She excelled in all of these jobs but found her true calling as a homemaker. She also loved her gardening, cooking, enjoying all of God’s creatures on her property, spending quality time with numerous family and friends, and especially sharing the love of Jesus with everyone around her. She is preceded in death by her parents, Harry and Dorothy Marshall. She is survived by her beloved husband of 27 years, Robert D. Perkins; sisters Joanne (Ed) Wood and Barbara Chambers, both of Poulsbo; brother Richard “Mike” (Michelle) Marshall of Forks; and numerous nieces, nephews and other extended family members who all cherished her and will miss her greatly. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be sent to the Women’s Clinic of Columbus, Ohio, via World Harvest Church, P.O. Box 100, Columbus, OH 43272-9501. “Who can find a virtuous and capable wife? She is more precious than rubies. Her husband can trust her, and she will greatly enrich his life.

hospital in Seattle. He was in a coma for a very long time. As he healed, he was finally able to come home but needed care so Mom naturally took care of him. Much later, Chuck was able to get an apartment in Sequim and now because of the head injury and on going problems from Agent Orange he is living at Retsil Veterans home in Port Orchard. I’m sure he would like to visit with his many friends and family but I would suggest a phone call first. Retsil has a website with driving directions.

finally arrived was an amazing transformation. You could see that kid again. The car was so fast and but he was a little intimidated by it, so Chuck had Bob drive it home! It didn’t take him long to get use to it. Chuck started a job as a sawyer for a mill out toward Neah Bay so for a long time, we didn’t see much of him. While working at the mill, Chuck had an accident and lost three fingers resulting in him moving to Port Angeles to be closer to doctors and treatment. It was at this time, he also had to have two hip replacements from the effects of Agent Orange. After some time, Chuck was enrolled in a vocational school outside of Seattle but the day before he was to leave, he was involved in a hit and run accident in Port Angeles. It was a serious head injury and required an airlift to Harborview

THE REAL FORKS No Ice Cream For You!

by Christy Rasmussen Ford As most of you may know, Sterling Bank recently switched to Umpqua Bank. What you may not know is that nobody asked my permission before this change. Obviously you’re thinking, “Wow! This column has really gone to her head!” No. Well yes, but that’s not the case here. They should have asked my permission because I have single-handedly kept this bank afloat for about 10 years now! Again, I don’t say this because I’m full of myself but because the bank wouldn’t have survived without the millions I’ve paid out in overdraft fees. I’m certain that I’ve donated enough in fees to pay all salaries of Sterling employees including the CEOs, bonuses and all. This isn’t because Sterling (Umpqua) is a shady bank that charges fees for everything but rather because my 6-year-old could do a better job of managing money than I do. And this is the same 6-year-old who thinks that two $1 bills are worth more than one $100 bill. Even though I wasn’t impressed with their obvious lack of gratefulness toward my charitable donations via overdraft fees (I wonder if I could claim overdraft fees on my taxes?), I was willing to give these new changes a chance. I’m not going to lie though, I have expressed my dislike of the new name. Umpqua? The fabulous tellers at the bank tried to reassure me by saying it was like Umpqua Ice Cream. However, when I inquired more, I found out that this delicious ice cream company was a completely different business … meaning no free ice cream for every overdraft fee! Rude! Just when I thought I would have to switch banks over all these negative changes, Umpqua tried to bribe me with free cake! As if I’m that easily swayed. I couldn’t believe that these people who I had come to love like my own family actually thought so little of me that they assumed I would stay for a mere piece of free cake! They were right. I did indeed stay for the cake. This was only because they said the cake would regularly be offered. Without Umpqua Ice Cream though unfortunately. I kid. I love that bank and the wonderful workers who enable my laziness by filling out deposit/withdrawal slips for me when they see me coming in. It’s nice! Stop in sometime to check out the new look … and grab some cake. But BYOIC (bring your own ice cream). Steve update of the week (to keep him in the news); Steve has been wearing pants around Forks … and shirts!!! To reach Christy, follow the free cake. Or e-mail her at christyrasmussen@yahoo.com.

The Westernmost Newspaper in the Continental U.S.

Commentary

The cat that loved Andy Griffith June is National “Adopt a Shelter Cat” month. I personally have never had to adopt a shelter cat because cats always seem to find me first. But I have taken in second-hand cats, cats that had a life before they came to live with me. Sometimes I wish they could talk because I think they have done some interesting stuff. It was 1988 and I had a store downtown at the stoplight. Heading home from work one night a cat crawled out from under the Oddfellow’s Hall, which was next door to my store, and then quickly ran back under the building, It was a stocky little calico cat, so of course I brought food the next morning and with in a few days Callie was living at my house joining my two other cats Boots Dahlgren who I actually adopted and Gary a stray that showed up where my husband worked, she got along great with the other cats. One day a few weeks later we were watching one of our favorite old shows,a rerun of the old black and white Andy Griffith show, as the theme song came on my husband began to whistle it and from out of nowhere Callie the cat jumped on his chest and was so happy. Thinking it was just the whistling we whistled “Dixie” and we whistled “Singin’ in the Rain” and nothing but when we whistled the theme to the Andy Griffith show that cat was ecstatic. So sometimes for fun we would just randomly whistle the tune, just to test it out and it worked every time — that

cat would be all over you. We pondered what happy memory in her past life did she associate with this song? But Callie wasn’t talking. It was a cold and rainy November day and when I got home from work that evening I called for Callie, no Callie. It was raining hard and blowing so I called louder still no Callie. Then just faintly I heard her meow. Through the sheets of rain I looked up and she was at the top of the light pole in my front yard. It was really nasty out, I called her to come down, she circle around at the top of the pole. I could barely see her though the rain, I thought about getting the pickup and a ladder and trying to get her but I didn’t think the combination would be tall enough, or safe, my husband was working out of town so I thought I will call the fire department but they told me they didn’t rescue cats. My next thought was who might have a bucket truck, I called Bonnie Anderson from Anderson Electric, told her my problem, and she said her husband Howard would be right over. When Howard arrived I realized Bonnie had not told him of his mission. He got in the bucket and as he headed up through the wind and rain from the bucket he hollered down, “What should I do?” I thought about how he may end up with a cat impaled on his face if she got scared and then I would feel bad for him maybe losing an eyeball and then I thought of it. I yelled up to him “When you get up there, whistle the theme to Andy Griffith.” He stopped the bucket and said “What?” I said “No, really put your shoulder over by her and whistle the theme to Andy

Griffith.” I watched the bucket go higher and it finally stopped and ever so faintly I heard that familiar tune, Howard was whistling the theme to Andy Griffith. Callie jumped right on his back and together they rode down. Once down he admitted that he was scared to death of cats, that is why Bonnie had not let on what his real mission was. Callie never went up a light pole again and she died in 1998 and as we buried her in the backyard we softly whistled that song she loved so much the theme to Andy Griffith. I have always wondered what was it with Andy Griffith and no other TV show theme songs, had she worked on the set maybe in mouse control, we will never know. Adopt a second-hand cat — you never know what they may teach you. Christi Baron, Editor

Washington State Parks announces ‘free days’ for June No Discover Pass needed June 7-8 The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission would like to remind the public that three dates in June are state parks “free days.” The following days are free for day-use visits to state parks; visitors are not required to display a Discover Pass: June 7 — National Trails Day June 7-8 — Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife Free Fishing Weekend June 14 — National Get Outdoors Day

Free days are in keeping with legislation that created the Discover Pass, a $30 annual or $10 one-day permit required on recreation lands managed by Washington State Parks, the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife and the State Department of Natural Resources. The Discover Pass legislation provided that State Parks could designate up to 12 “free days” each year when the pass would not be required to visit state parks. The Discover Pass is required to access lands managed by WDFW and DNR on these days. Continued on page 6

Check out an Explore Olympic Pack

Explore Olympic! daypacks are available for checkout through the North Olympic Library System. Submitted photo

Olympic National Park and the North Olympic Library System are teaming up to help local families explore the spectacular national park in our own backyard. Beginning June 5, Explore Olympic! packs will be available for check out at any NOLS branch. Daypacks are filled with discovery tools for exploring the park, including trail and field guides, binoculars and reading materials for youths. Families who check out a pack will receive a sevenday entrance to Olympic National Park through a donation by Washington’s National Park Fund. “We are thrilled to see these packs made available to our North Olympic neighbors and very grateful to the library and our partners for making it possible,” said Olympic National Park superintendent Sarah Creachbaum. “I extend my heartfelt invitation to every family who checks out an Explore Olympic! pack – please use the complimentary entrance pass and come visit and enjoy Olympic National Park.” The Explore Olympic! pack program is a terrific way for families to explore and discover the remarkable community, from page 5 The free days apply only to day use at state parks, not for overnight

stays or rented facilities. The Discover Pass provides daytime access to parks. Overnight visitors are charged fees for camping and other overnight accommodations, and day access is included in the overnight fee. For more information about state parks “free days” for 2014, visit www.parks.wa.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=22 For more information about WDFW’s Free Fishing Weekend, visit http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/free.

Ideas are coming in!

Decorate Forum vending machine Do you have an interesting idea on how to decorate a Forks Forum newspaper vending machine? The Forks Forum is holding a contest to have the seven Forum newspaper vending machines decorated by local artists. If you are an artist or would be artist, submit

natural resources of Olympic National Park. Research shows that children who are encouraged to explore their surroundings are more motivated to become curious, engaged learners. When it’s time to return the pack, NOLS has lots of resources to pique that curiosity. The libraries have books, DVDs and other materials for all ages about the trails, history, geology, plants and animals of Olympic National Park. To learn more, visit www.nols.org or ask any library staff member for assistance. The Explore Olympic! pack program is funded by Olympic National Park partners Washington’s National Park Fund and Discover Your Northwest. More information about the park is available at www.nps.gov/olym or “Like” Olympic National Park on Facebook for frequent updates and ideas for exploring. For information on this and other library services for families, contact the Forks Library at 374-6402, the Clallam Bay Library at 360-963-2414, visit the NOLS website at www.nols.org or e-mail Director@nols.org.

Spaghetti feed and auction a huge success

It was another successful year for The Sekiu Fly-In at the Sekiu Airport, Saturday, May 24. The Fly-in has been held for six years and all proceeds go to the Rocky Hinkle Memorial Scholarship fund. Youngsters went up for free rides in Gary Fernandes’s little Cessna. From left are Skyler Schoonover and Damien Fosdick. Photo by Donna Barr

The FHS Football Booster Club, along with parents, put on a fundraiser at the Forks Middle School on Saturday and it was a huge success. The fundraiser was to help with the cost of camp and equipment and donations to assist with the building of the proposed stadium. For those that attended, the team served dinner and then were divided up into groups of four and auctioned off to the highest bidder for odd jobs around town for businesses or community members. A total of $3,000 was raised, making this first-time effort a great success. The high school football team and the FHS Football Booster Club would like to thank all those that came out to support the youths at the fundraiser, getting the 2014 season off to a good start. The club looks forward to new ideas and future fundraising opportunities in the year ahead.

Mick Dodge enjoys a Tall Timber Burger and blackberry shake at Sully’s as well as an espresso at one of the coffee stands earlier in the day. He had a late night appointment at Forks Outfitter’s to purchase a bottle of wine but didn’t show. Probably too much urban overload and he had to get back to the woods. The Learning Channel was in town scouting for Forks folks that live in trees, for a new series “The Tree People.” Not sure if they found any treehouse dwellers.

Chatting Around the Campfire

From Bill White’s Legend files: The Wager VI Before falling into this episode, here is first another “catchup” account. A new skill suddenly becomes easy once it is mastered. The problem I have though, is not so much the mastery, but the fear of the challenge as I get older. Thus this type of fear has been intensifying for an old guy like me, who is normally averse to changes in the pattern of life’s flow anyway. However, just as it has been said that necessity is the mother of invention, it is the mother of another progeny, a fraternal twin called accomplishment. Therefore, when I could no longer rely on any Sound Publishing staff members to transfer primitive pencil marks etched on paper to typed computer screen images instead, I became resourceful. Being as unskilled in such matters as I was, I reached out desperately to the expertise of Forks Public Library staff. In describing their response to my need, one nearly antiquated descriptive verb is my clear choice. They Reach

other. This challenger, though, getting out of another crew bus some distance away, had planned for this day for some time. This matter will be examined closely later on. A list of Bill’s exceptions included such things as extra gas, an extra 075 saw and a couple of sharp chains. The extra can of gas was carried to his job site the day before and placed in a safe location above where he calculated he would be by noon the next day. The extra saw was placed alongside that gas can on this day as well. Of course that saw was fully fueled and its bar fitted with a new chain,

fully sharpened. On the day of the wager, Bill packed in the following items: four sharpened chains[two more than normal], another full two and a half gallon gas can, a new jug of bar oil and a three sandwich lunch. Bill planned on eating that lunch on the run, grabbing a bite at each fuel up stop. Most assuredly, the other fellow had likewise made preparations similar to this. To be continued… May light for your feet guide you on the path of life until we meet again.

Forks Chamber’s Logging and Mill Tour

by Christi Baron On May 23, 1991, the town of Forks was closed, many businesses, except city offices and banks, locked up as most residents traveled to Olympia to take part in a rally protesting critical habitat protections for the northern spotted owl. In the years that followed and as the timber industry became vilified, many left the industry, but those remaining wanted to get the message out about who the timber industry was and what loggers really did. Diane Schostak remembers early days at the Visitors Center when people would keep the motor running while they ran in for a ferry schedule or just stop long enough to complain about the logging along the highway. In an effort to get the story out about what logging and milling really were about, the Forks Chamber of Commerce soon created a logging and mill tour. Continued on page 16

tour, from page 12 Diane recalls Bonnie Anderson and Bob Huelsdonk being instrumental in getting the project going and Jerry Lane at Allen’s was very supportive. I originally went on the tour in September 1994 and I went again last week. Wednesday, May 28, was the first official trip of the chamber’s logging and mill tour for the summer season. When I got to the Visitors Center there were four other real tourists signed up for the three-hour tour for that day. They were from Delaware, Hawaii, California and Tacoma. Our guide for the day was Joe Seymore. As we took off south in the tour van he explained the cutting schedule and how many times areas along the road had been harvested. He explained “it’s our corn crop, we just don’t cut it down every year.” Joe also recited some poetry and broke in to song, but I won’t get in to that part. He explained the different species of trees and how much rain the area gets. He told a bit of history about the spruce harvesting in World War I and the Spruce Railroad. We passed the cranberry bog and over the Hoh Bridge and we had arrived at Allen Logging. A quick stop inside for earplugs and the group was full of questions, and the mill was noisy. The last tour I was on a lot of the machines were

idle. Joe explained how nothing goes to waste at the mill. We watched logs turn in to boards and learned about the drying process and watched a chip truck get loaded. Joe deputized me as an honorary guide telling me to keep an eye on the tourists, explaining that they get so interested in things they get behind. He likened it to “herding cats.” Back in the van we headed toward Nolan Creek to find some logging. As we drove down the logging road I asked who had seen “Ax Men” and they all said they had never seen the show. Joe and I both said “good.” It took a while but Joe finally found the group some logging. Out of the van we donned orange vests and hard hats, something that was not part of the tour the last time I went. The group watched the logs being cut to length, they marveled at the expertise of the machine operators sorting and stacking the logs. We also got to watch a road change. There was one choker setter in a white hard hat that really impressed the group — he was really moving as he set chokers. The unit that we parked next to recently had been planted so Joe had an opportunity to explain that side of the business, too. As we watched the logging operation, Joe told the group, “Logging, it was the best job I ever had.” Back at the Visitors Center the tourists all agreed they had a great time. Ray from California said it was so great to see the milling in person and not on a documentary. I personally think the world would be a much better place if everyone had the opportunity to meet a logger, the guy that does the dirty work so others can go to The Home Depot and buy a 2 by 4. The bottom line is that fewer and fewer people are working in the timber industry. With the logging and mill tour the Forks Chamber of Commerce is just reminding everyone that our community and the people that built it had their collective roots in the harvest of timber. The logging and mill tour is not just for tourists and anyone can go. They do suggest reservations because space is limited. The tours leave each Wednesday at 9 a.m. from the Visitors Center and lasts about three hours. The tour is free but donations are accepted. To make reservations or for questions, call 374-2531.
