Missoula is back! The Missoula Children’s Theater has rolled in to town and “The Little Mermaid” will be presented in two performances Saturday, Jan. 24, at 3 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. at the Forks High School Commons. Auditions for the production took place Monday, Jan. 19, in the Forks Intermediate/Junior High School gym, with 73 hopeful actors and actresses ages 5-18 trying out for a part. Put through their paces, they were asked to state their names and ages and then again with a country western accent and then a little movement audition. Other activities using big happy voices also were used to select those that will be in Saturday’s performances. The two young ladies in charge of the tryouts also asked the group what they should see and where they should eat while in town. The Timber Museum was recommended as a local attraction and the In Place and JT’s Sweet Stuffs, for eats and ice cream, were suggested for places to go while in town.

those intersections. Moore said it is planned to do most of the paving at night so as not to disrupt business activity too much. The sidewalk work will take more time as only one corner can be done at a time so that access is less impacted. At the same time the city plans to take advantage of available asphalt and will do repairs to Calawah Way, from Trillium to Aldergrove Mobile Home Park. The project will go out for bid around March 16. The project will not impact the Fourth of July celebration. After telling those in attendance all the details, Moore admitted that if money for the project is not available, it may be postponed until the summer of 2016.

Jerry Moore and Chris Bruning, with the Washington State Department of Transportation, stopped by the Forks Chamber of Commerce meeting Jan. 14, to update the group on the possible upcoming road work that will impact main street. The project is part of a much larger one but the part that is of concern to Forks is from Evergreen 76 to Mansfield Road, south of the airport. The project was described as a “mill and fill” as the asphalt will be ground out and filled back in. Just the two through lanes will be impacted. Also included in the project will be ADA ramps at all intersections through town. WSDOT will seek approval from each property owner at

Concerned Citizens receives grant Linda Middleton, executive director of Concerned Citizens, thanked Umpqua bank in a letter dated Jan. 14, 2015. She said: Dear Umpqua Bank, I write this with immense gratitude for the recent grant you awarded us. This last year we saw many budget cuts which have had an almost detrimental impact on some of our programs. We are a mainly free-for-service agency; this grant will help us provide an increased range of services to the community. Having an increased presence in the community we hope will empower and encourage many. Without this grant our goal would be harder to achieve, maybe even impossible. As an agency and community we thank you. Sincerely, Linda Middleton

QVSD teacher completes National Board Certification Charles Urlacher, a teacher at Forks High School, has achieved his completion of National Board Certification. At the regular school board meeting Dec. 9, Superintendent Diana Reaume commended Urlacher on this accomplishment. Urlacher is the first teacher in the district, during Reaume’s time as superintendent, to complete National Board Certification. Urlacher shared the very involved process of completing this level of certification: 300 hours, 10 components
(four of which are a portfolio of results based teaching) and a three-hour essay exam. All sections are reviewed by a panel of teachers and administrators. Unlike state certification that is renewed every five years, National Board Certification is renewed every 10 years. Urlacher thanked the board for allowing him the opportunity to start his teaching career at Forks High School. The board shared its appreciation for Urlacher’s commitment and involvement with students inside and outside of school hours.

Fundraiser held for Diane Schostak A dinner and silent-auction benefit that raised $8,500 to help cover medical expenses was held at Lake Crescent Lodge on Friday evening for Forks resident Diane Schostak, 59, who is being treated for Stage 4 breast cancer. Paying $40 each for a dinner of hors d’oeuvres, soup, salad, pie and a chocolate fountain, those who came to the benefit put bids on more than 100 auction items, said event organizer Mike Rainey. Rainey said $9,000 was
raised at the event, billed as “A Night with Diane,” with $500 covering food and plastic dinnerware. Music was provided by Loose Gravel, while the Makah tribe prepared the meal and donated halibut for the seafood chowder, said Rainey, the tribe’s business manager. For those that were unable to attend the benefit and still would like to contribute, donations can be made at the Forks branch of First Federal to an account that has been set up for Schostak.

THE REAL FORKS
Typical Christy Move By Christy Rasmussen-Ford A few days from today would have been my grandma’s 77th birthday. In her memory, I’d like to share the following story: On Jan. 25, 2012, I phoned the floral geniuses at Leppell’s to have some flowers delivered to my best gal. The phone-answerer inquired, “What kind of arrangement are you looking for?” “Something grandma-birthday-ish.” I replied, as always using only the most technical of terms. Having faith that Leppell’s would throw together an amazing grandma-birthday-ish arrangement, I gave them my financial data and bid them adieu. All of the hard work on my end (that phone call) was finally done. I sat back and waited for my gram to call, gushing that I was the best granddaughter that anyone ever had. Very shortly after ordering the flowers, my gram’s number showed up on my Caller-ID. I was shocked that Leppell’s had delivered so quickly. I knew they were efficient, but I didn’t know they were THAT efficient. I thought to myself, “How did they get everything put together and delivered in 20 minutes? I bet they have a pre-made arrangement for this exact kind of thing. It’s probably called, “The Grandma-Birthday-Ish Bouquet” If they don’t have one, they should. I think it would be very popular.” After this short conversation with myself, I answered my gram’s call. Because I’m basically an impatient 4 year old, I didn’t even let her speak before I blurted out, “How did you like your flowers?!” No answer. “Oh no!” I thought to myself. “She hates them. Was my description not detailed enough? Did they have more of a great-aunt-birthday-ish look? Too many chrysanthemums and not enough tibouchinas? I hate when florists skimp on the tibouchinas.” My gram interrupted this second conversation I was having with myself when she asked, “What flowers?” *Sigh* “You didn’t get them yet, did you?” I said. “No.” She answered. “Well, maybe they left them on the porch. Hang on a minute. I’ll go look outside.” She was often cute like that. “No, it’s OK, Gram. I just ordered them, but I thought that’s why you were calling.” We had a good laugh over the matter (I was crying on the inside) and then got off the phone. I hung my head in shame. My lack of patience had ruined everything. Nice job dumbdumb. Way to throw all that hard work right out the window! An hour later she called again. “I got your flowers!” She said with a laugh. “Surprise!” Apparently, the arrangement was gorgeous. Leppell’s scored a touchdown. I was the only one to blame for this loss. I couldn’t even claim that the refs were paid off. The moral of this story is that I can never, ever be trusted with surprises or secrets. This is even more important to remember now that I have a newspaper column read by millions. That being said, if you like to live dangerously, you can e-mail your most sensitive information to christyrasmussen@ yahoo.com. 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. Forks Ave. All letters must have a name, address and telephone number for verification purposes. Only the writer’s name and hometown are printed in the newspaper.

Commentary
Local author hopes to make it big Is the next big thing in a book trilogy about to hit Forks? (again) Local author Sofia St. Angeles, not her real name, hopes so. This time though the plot is not set in Forks but in place in St Angeles’ imagination. The idea was not inspired by a dream as in Twilight but by a song. The name of the book is “Siren Tamer.” St. Angeles received her first acknowledgement of her writing skills in high school. She currently works for an online magazine called InD’tail where she does reviews for other writers. The book has been in the works for about three years and is planned to be a threepart series. She admits she is a fan of Twilight and horribly romantic. St. Angeles describes the book as a warrior protecting the princess, other words to describe it include alternative, sci-fi and paranormal. So far the book has been popular with big burly guys to pre-teen girls. “Men love it,” St. Angeles said, “There is something for
The author Sofia St. Angeles.
everybody in this book.” St. Angeles tried the standard route of submitting her book and getting rejected, then she realized with her job she had the tools to do it herself. So for the first order she scraped together enough money to order 15 books. The book is now available on Amazon and also will be available locally at Leppell’s, Three Rivers and Forks Outfitters. The main characters of the book are Gideon and Aliya who are figuring out they are different than others, they have abilities. The premise is Aliya is a Siren. St. Angeles says like Stephenie Meyer did a different type of vampire story, she has done a different type of Siren. She also describes
the book as rated for any age, saying the book is completely “clean” with no worries about the age of the readers. For the book St. Angeles studied temples in South America. The book is set in an alternate world where a siren tamer only comes along every 1,000 years. St. Angeles describes her husband as her biggest fan — he even takes books along when they go out to eat and ultimately sells them to the wait staff. Besides writing, St. Angeles’ favorite thing to do is archetype people, a character tool she has developed. She is fascinated by what makes people and characters so great, asking people all sorts of questions to see what makes them tick. Those first 15 books are gone, so hang on to your umbrella Forks — OK nobody has an umbrella — but hang on as Twilight fades a bit while the “Siren Tamer” just might be heating up. Also, she even sort of resembles Stephenie Meyer! See Kray Horton’s book review on Page 14.

Parker Browning and Colton Raben combined to score 45 of Forks’ 58 points in a 69-58 loss to Montesano in Evergreen League boys basketball action. “Parker definitely had his best scoring game,” Spartans coach Rick Gooding said of the sophomore. “Unfortunately, we didn’t have a lot of scoring outside of Colton and Parker.” Forks started slow, which went against its recent trend, but came on in the second quarter and even took a 33-32 lead into halftime thanks to a three-quarter-court shot by Raben. The Spartans and Bulldogs swapped leads throughout the third quarter, but Montesano (3-5, 6-6) pulled away late with a 1-3-1 half-court trap — something Forks spent a majority of Monday’s practice working on. “We basically lost because we didn’t block out (on rebounds) and we didn’t execute against their pressure,” Gooding said. “You can’t win every game, but you can learn from every game. Hopefully we learn from this one.” Jake Herzog paced the Bulldogs with 19 points, 12 of which came in the final quarter. The Spartans still are looking for their first league win (0-8, 1-10).

Forks High School is proud to recognize ‘Students of Character’
Each month, students will be nominated for a specific character trait by their teachers. Next a committee will chose one boy and one girl student from each grade to be recognized in the Forks Forum. November students were nominated for the character trait of “respect.” 9TH GRADE Herlinda Martin Perez is the daughter of Atanacio Martin Mendoza and Celestina Perez Martin. Herlinda likes to read books and write a lot. She enjoys studying. Her teacher says, “Herlinda puts respect into action through well mannered, kind, helpful, cooperative behavior. She doesn’t talk back and discourages others around her from doing so as well. This strength to do what is right amid a hall/class of what is not, calls for attention.” Scott Archibald is the son of Brad and Cheryl Archibald. Scott enjoys fishing, hunting and basketball. His teacher says, “Scott
earned student of the month from his positive attitude. He encourages other players to do their best, even if they are his opponents. He participates fully in all activities and never complains about anything. He is also respectful to everyone.” 10TH GRADE Caitlyn Voyles is the daughter of Angie and Darren Voyles. Caitlyn enjoys playing volleyball. Her teacher says, “Caitlyn is always on and ready to learn.” Alex (Jonathan) Bohl-Martin is the son of LeeAndra and Kevin Martin. Alex enjoys spending time with his dogs. His teacher says, “Jonathan says ‘yes sir’ and ‘no sir,’ gets his work done and takes a genuine interest in finishing his assignments.” 11TH GRADE Kasey Kraft is the daughter of Heather Heimbigner and John Kraft. Kasey enjoys spending time with family and friends.
She also enjoys going to the beach and just being outdoors. Her teacher says, “Kasey is always respectful in class and makes sure to take care of the classroom. She will help out to make sure the room is tidy and always asks for assistance with the utmost respect. Thanks Kasey!” Cole Johnson is the son of Nichole and Adam Johnson. Cole enjoys fishing and is involved with the newly started debate club at school. His teacher says, “Cole is always demonstrating positive core values around school and is willing to help out when needed. He comes to class prepared to work and is respectful when asking for anything he might need. He shows a general respect for his school mates, our staff and the school itself. Thanks Cole!”
and weight lifting. She also enjoys singing and photography. Her teacher says, “Brooklyn is a hard worker that looks out for others. She is a natural leader and assists students and teachers without a second thought or question.” Darel Maxfield is the son of Dora and Darel Maxfield. Darel is involved in the wrestling program and plans to enter the U.S. Army upon graduation. His teacher says,
“Darel has shown real dedication to his career field and has gone the extra mile to plan special events surrounding his military field. He showed great responsibility in planning this event with his teachers and was outwardly grateful for the opportunity. In addition, he is always available for lighting assistance for senior projects or school events, sometimes at a moment’s notice. His maturity and flexibility are really strong this year!”

A Busy Life A Presentation of Memory was held in memory of Arlen Alto Olson, in the Sekiu Community Center, Saturday, Jan. 17. The presentation included a poetry reading, photo slideshow with music and a potluck. Grant Monroe opened the celebration by reading from Olson’s obituary. Olson was born June 19, 1933, and died on Dec. 31, 2014. He was 81, and died peacefully at his home of heart complications. He was surrounded by his family. Olson played football in school. He went into the army in 1950, served in the Korean War, and was discharged in 1953. He learned to fly in Port Angeles and aerial acrobatics in Seattle. Olson married Donalynn Bonney, from Port Angeles, on Oct. 25, 1958. They had three children, Julie, Valorie and Scott. Monroe read that Olson loved duck-hunting, flying, weightlifting, getting work done and all his four-legged friends. He always had Milk Bones in his truck for whatever dogs he might meet, including Monroe’s. Olson’s granddaughter Tasha Dawley, with Laura Stikers, read a poem dedicated to Olson, written by Jackie Gonzalez, expressing the longing to see the man again. The poem celebrated a man who liked the little things like coffee, French bread and

fried chicken, and the greater, like the lives of his family and the safety of his town, Sekiu. Lines from the poem say it all: “The headlights on the hill, No longer burn bright. And the watchman’s finally asleep. Leaving behind a legacy, Full of memories I get to keep.” Granddaughter Cassie Burrow took the floor and said, “This is not a funeral but a celebration of an amazing life.” She thanked attending friends for the family, and — pointing out how food had been a big part of Olson life — invited everyone to the generous potluck downstairs, in the dining and meeting hall. She said that there was always time for other things, but:
“Sometimes you just eat the damn food.” The slideshow was accompanied by music that included punk rock behind shots of an adventurous life, including football and in the military, Elvis for the wedding shots and — for pictures of the energetic Olson children — “Wild Thing.” One shot, labeled as a crash, got a gasp and a laugh from the audience. It showed a lightweight plane shattered in a tree, recalling memories that Olson had not only loved flying, but had built the Sekiu airport in the 1960s. No one seemed to recall any details of the crash, but Olson must have walked away from it, reflecting the old pilot proverb
that “Any landing you walk away from is a good one.” Such crashes of lightweights and experimentals aren’t unusual or due to pilot error, more often being the result of the ease with which even slight winds can blow them out of control. Ken Lisk remembered when his father Charles and Olson’s father Al started running boats from the beach next to each other in Sekiu, circa 1938-1939. They built the old breakwater together. When Arlen took over the business from Al in the 1950s, he filled in the cove around the three outcroppings called “The Three Sisters,” which remain standing to this day in the Olson’s Resort parking lot. He also rebuilt the breakwater into its present-day
FORKS FORUM
configuration. Lisk said, “Arlen and (Arlen’s brother) Gene and I were “The Three Musketeers.” Lisk said the three of them grew up cleaning boats and cabins and taking care of the tourists for the resorts. Around 1967, Ken sold the Lisk Resort to Olson’s. Tom Hahn remembered Olson’s part in the building of the Clallam Bay Correctional Facility in the 1980s. Barges of gravel from Canada were offloaded at the Olson’s Resort docks. Arlen’s son Scott drove the dump-truck loads of gravel up the hill to the construction site for two years. Hahn, managing the tribal concrete company in Neah Bay, said the Makah had the concrete contract. Working with Olson as a friend in the 1990s, Hahn installed the foundation on the two-story building on resort property and steel-encased the wooden pilings behind the resort breakwater. According to Hahn, Makah tribe tribal fishing boats — 20-30 of them — originally off-loaded sockeye during the August fishing season at the resort docks. Natural shifting of gravel from Sekiu’s glacial till gradually made the harbor too shallow to take deep-draft commercial fishing boats. Jerry Hoeppner, now living in Port Hadlock, said that his dad established Jack’s Place circa 1938. The store was then sold in the 1950s to Keith and Milly Olson, Arlen’s parents, before being sold to the present owner, who renamed it Ray’s Grocery.

Chatting Around the Campfire
Part 5: Forks Spartan Boys Track Record Holders By Duane Miles As we turn the corner onto the homestretch from last week, two other noteworthy changes also have taken place in statewide track and field events recently. The first is a change in the javelin event. For safety reasons, this device is no longer balanced at the handle. It now has more weight forward of the handle, therefore it arcs much more than before, causing it to strike the ground at a more vertical angle. In the past, a javelin would sometimes land nearly horizontal, allowing it to sometimes skim for some distance before resting. Mitch Lamb’s javelin toss of 172 feet 7 inches in 1974
was set with such a skimming device. Did that javelin carry better than the modern one?
A change also has taken place in the pole vault event sometime after David Holmquist established the mark to beat, a height of 12 feet 6 inches in 1996. Today, a certified individual has to be available whenever a pole vault area is in use; thus, without adequate funding, this event is currently canceled. David’s record then, much like the records set during the yardage era, is for now, comfortably secure.
The track and field events displayed in this series of articles certainly cover mankind’s four main physical skill areas. Some participants are gifted with blazing speed, some are gifted with the capacity for extreme strength, while others are gifted with tremendous endurance and yet others with exceptional athleticism. Of course, many participants are gifted with more than one of these attributes. In addition to
these physical abilities, the two gifts of mental and emotional proficiency are essential for success. Therefore, with those last two gifts added to the mix of physical skills, an intangible now looms for each thinclad listed here — that of unyielding determination. Clearly all of these star athletes have passed that test, despite the often loneliness of this sport.
Each of them should be heartily applauded. With no more hurtles to jump, we’ve finally hit the tape on this series. What you will see in this column next week is currently a mystery. However, don’t be surprised if one day you see other articles covering track athletes. May light for your feet guide you on the path of life until we meet again.

True Color Part 16
Aliens and the Beast By Chiggers Stokes, Special to Forks Forum
Within the first two years of settling on Hemp Hill, I had moved my two plastic 50-gallon water drums up to our sleeping loft. This was the highest point in our $800 dream home. From the roof I collected a dark brew of cedar tannin, wood ash, bird poop, bat droppings, meteorite dust, owl pellets, probably some skink tails and other such from my gutter collection system. There also was some rainwater in the concoction. Offering guests refreshment from our tap was like serving toilet from punch bowl. Even I, of cast-iron digestion, wouldn’t touch that brew straight up. But we had hot and cold running sludge! The first improvement I had acquired for the homestead was a wood stove fashioned out of an old water tank fabricated by Melvin King. He had built it to my instruction including a generous copper coil in the stem of the chimney. For a hot water reservoir, I set up a salvaged propane water heater at the same level as my Melvin King. We bathed in a large claw
foot tub that may have come out of the same dump as the water heater. This is a thermo-siphon system: Hot water rises in the coil so by running hot water from the top of the coil to the top of the tank and having the coil draw from the drain spigot on the bottom, we had 30 hot gallons of hot Nature’s toilet. We adjusted our idea of purity and enjoyed long soaks. Against this backdrop, I struggled to read the instructions on lighting the old propane tank that served our thermo-siphon system. I balked at a fire in August just for a hot bath even though this was winter. I had succeeded in getting the pilot going and was getting ready to ignite the heating element. My wife, who was a veteran of several of my failed plumbing experiments, was begging me not to activate the propane. I pointed out that if I was going to blow us up with propane, we would already be dead. I had plumbed the propane refrigerator a year ago. The pressure relief valve on the water tank would go off if things got out of control. I assured her, my plumbing would give up long before pressure could build to

explosion. I ignited the burner and everything looked good. When we had 30 gallons of hot-what-ever, it shut off. By then, my wife and I had more-or-less stopped arguing. We left to catch the relatively recent release: “Alien” with Sigourney Weaver. Stand with me in line to get our tickets to Olympic Theater’s 1980 presentation of “Alien” here in Forks. That’s Estene Fletcher, the owner, behind the glass booth. She is wearing the same mink, biting a tail it caught 50 years ago. That’s my friend, Dean, selling popcorn. A few months from now in 1980, the popcorn hopper will fall and almost knock Dean’s foot off. In the main room of the theater, there is the inverted map of the Olympic Peninsula on the western wall. My friend Louis leans out from a slit in the projection booth and peers at the screen through thick corrective lenses
trying to focus the picture as the screen is struck by the first of many projectiles hurled at it by a riotous crowd. But “Alien” pretty much scared the mischief out of us. My wife and I forgot about our disagreements. We held each other’s hand coming into the darkened house and finding our way back to the safety of our bed. Safe until a little after 2 in the morning. Somehow the Alien had followed us home from the theater and set up shop in one or both of my 50-gallon water tanks! Water sloshed around madly. Something much larger than salmon was swimming in our plumbing. “Get up and see what it is,” hissed my wife under the covers where she already was seeking sanctuary. “You check what it is!” I hissed back from under the covers, ever the egalitarian. I suppose it’s the mark of a coward, when sense of toilet
is higher than protection of homeland from Aliens. I had to get up to micturate. That’s when I felt the hot breath of the Beast on my skin. And the Beast was My Own Ignorance come back to haunt me. I had installed no check valve to keep the hot water from back flowing into cold water supply. The Second Law of Thermodynamics and Chaos theory, expressed for laymen as “Murphy’s Law,” dictate that a random gurgling will develop into a convective chimney and, given a chance, create 100 gallons of scalding hot water at its high point supported by a cheap polypipe system designed for cold water only. (Well, I may have stoked the odds of catastrophe a bit.) But the laws of probability did not support me being chased back to bed by an Alien issuing from my plumbing. Instead, I faced a whole night of I-toldyou-so’s to escape 100 gallons of scalding water. It melted every shred of plumbing in our cabin and flowed through two floors and steamed out into the night. But the Beast of my Ignorance would return for me in my future engineering.

The mission of Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Office of Air and Marine (OAM), the world’s largest aviation and maritime law enforcement organization, is to protect the American people and the nation’s critical infrastructure through the coordinated use of integrated air and marine forces to detect, interdict and prevent acts of terrorism and the unlawful movement of people, illegal drugs and other contraband toward or across U.S. borders Kray Horton with the copy of the book she recently read. Photo by Christi Baron
If Kray Horton is any indication of the reaction to the book “Siren Tamer,” then this thing could be a hit! Horton gushed with anticipation for the next book as she told me about reading the first in what is planned as a trilogy. Kray is 11 years old and likes to read, especially fantasy. She described the book as great and recommends it. She said it has a good ending but was careful not to be a spoiler about what happens, and she thinks it would make a wonderful movie. Kray said in the book the two main characters take turns telling the story and sometimes there are twists and turns that throw off the reader. “So it keeps you thinking,” she added. She said the book also teaches you some history about South America, saying her literacy teacher said it reflects back 1,000 years to another time. According to Kray, it is an amazing book and she adored it.

West End Historical Society hears memories of Beaver Camp and Sappho
Avon Miller spoke at the monthly meeting of the West End Historical Society on Tuesday, Jan. 13. Miller was born in 1923 the same year Bloedel moved to the Olympic Peninsula. Miller told how Bloedel purchased Goodyear Logging at Sekiu and built the railroad over the mountain to the Sol Duc Valley. When Miller was 3 years old he moved to Beaver and the family lived in a tent as there were no houses to rent, but he said a number of people lived in tents. His father eventually built the family a cabin at “old Beaver.” His father was a carpenter for the camp and he described it as modern in every way. With electric lights, steam heat, 33 buildings and bunkhouses that housed 10 men each. At Sappho there were 14 family houses, each had three rooms. As a family grew many added on or slid another small building along side and attached it to the main house. Miller remembered one particular birthday when he was a child when somehow his mother produced store bought ice cream — he called it quite a phenomenon since they had no freezer. The water source for the community was a water tank that served the camp and the locomotives, Miller recalling it provided very low water pressure. Miller went to

school at Beaver until seventh grade when he was bused to Forks. At that time Miller recalled everyone had a clothesline attached to a stump in the backyard. The garbage dump also was out back usually where a hole was formed by a former stump. The same was true for the outhouse. He described
one fancy outhouse that was a two for one, a duplex outhouse. Eventually the little houses acquired in door plumbing. Miller said the highway running through Sappho was the children’s playground, someone would yell “Car coming” and everyone would get out of the road until it passed and
then back in the highway. Miller joined the Navy and was on a Liberty ship in 1943. He recalled being shipped to Alaska and while on board with hundreds of other men heard a familiar laugh and it was Fred Orr, another West End resident. He spent a year and a half in the Aleutians. Then one day his name and
15 others were called and he was taken to Admiral Halsey and then put on board the USS Missouri and he found himself on board for the surrender ceremony of the Japanese, which ended the war. The WEHS meets the second Tuesday of the month at JT’s Sweet Stuffs at noon.
WEBPA Hears about Concerned Citizen activities 10-panel board and 130 employees with a budget of over $3 million. The organization is audited every year and has received high ratings. Middleton described a program to help people find a job. They help with the interviews, provide mock interviews, talk to co-workers and provide vocational rehab services. Other services provided include helping people manage their money, personal/home care and helping people stay in their homes. She also described how new laws that are affecting training of home care workers, causing them to have to travel to Everett or other I-5 locals, which is hard for some
people. She spoke about how Sunshine and Rainbows is not just babysitting and has received a 98-percent rating. The Teen Center has undergone some changes also, now called The Family First Center. Created 21 years ago, the facility now focuses on activities rather than just a place to “drop in.” It is now available to be rented for meetings, parties, dances or fundraising activities. The facility includes a stage, microphone, kitchenette and full commercial kitchen. Middleton added, “I have an awesome staff.” For more information or questions about Concerned
Citizens, Sunshine and Rainbows or rental information for the Family First Center, call 374-9340.

Remembering the ’21 Blow
By Christi Baron People love to talk about the weather. People talk about the weather on the phone and in person. Friends and family talk about the weather before they discuss what’s new. Co-workers talk about the weather before starting a hard day of work. Even strangers discuss the weather. Why do we talk about it? Is it because we have no control over it? Oftentimes residents of the West End have found themselves at the mercy of the power of the weather. On Saturday, Jan. 29, 1921, a weather system, like none since, hit Clallam County. “The Big Blowdown” was a gale that packed 100-150 mile an hour winds. It swept in over an area 70 miles long by 35 miles wide though the dense timber stands of the West End. In its wake it left an estimated 6 billion board feet of timber on the ground. Roads were blocked for weeks, homes, barns and ve-

hicles were destroyed, livestock and wildlife were killed. Unbelievably no loss of human life was reported. It was almost four days after the disaster before the extent of the damage trickled out from the isolated West End. It took weeks for Westenders to climb, cut and pick their way out over logs stacked like a jumble of giant pick-up sticks.
Every road, trail and highway was covered with debris, in many places those clearing the road way had to work down to even find the gravel road bed. It was reported it took three days to clear the road from the north end of Forks to the Calawah bridge. A count of downed trees over the roadway from Beaver to Fairholme tallied 1,700. The trees stretched across the
highway having shattered the crown of the road, their roots tearing up huge sections of the roadside as they fell. In a Port Angeles Evening News interview from June 27, 1966, then 92-year-old West End pioneer Guy Lesure recalled the events of the “Big Blowdown.” In January 1921 Lesure’s occupation was cruising for the Lacey Timber interests. Mrs. Lesure was in charge of the central exchange for the phone company. The service was installed in the Lesure home. Radio and television were yet to be the source for news so the telephone served that purpose. Just after noon calls started pouring in that the barometer was plummeting, horses were squealing and cows bellowing and the sky was looking mighty nasty. Then at 3:30 p.m. the hurricane struck with awesome force. The wind shrieked, debris flew and huge trees snapped like dry macaroni. At

the Sappho store it took five men to keep the door from slamming open. A Port Angeles-Western locomotive shuddered to a stop at a partial clearing near the Soleduck River bridge. The train consisted of loaded flat cars, a passenger coach and a car used for dining. Four women and several children were eating in the dining car. As the train stopped a tree crashed across the car cutting it in two. Miraculously none of the diners even suffered a scratch. A mail carrier, alarmed by the intensity of the storm, parked his Model T Ford on the road and sprinted for the Calawah bridge just in time as a huge tree smashed the car into the ground. As I am writing this the barometer is dropping and off in the distance I think I hear a cow bellow. Hopefully, the “Big Blowdown” will forever remain the greatest disaster, in recorded history, to ever hit the West End.
Rediscovering Oil City Editors note: I discovered a Facebook page and website titled OilCityWashington. Intrigued, I contacted the creator and discovered her name is Ruth Katz and she has owned Oil City property for about four years. I asked her to share some information about what is happening at Oil City. OilCityWashington.com is a website focused on topics and information that Oil City landowners as well as others who live in or visit this area of the peninsula may enjoy. Oil City was platted in the 1920s after the discovery of oil in the area. Because commercial quantities of oil never were produced, the remote platted community of Oil City remains mostly undeveloped, but rich in history and recreational value. When my husband and I purchased our Oil City property I found it difficult to locate pertinent information regard-
ing the remote community. After a couple of years of collecting web links and other local information, I decided the information that I had gathered might be helpful or of interest to others. I had built websites for businesses in the past and decided that building a website about Oil City would be a great way to organize and share information related to the remote community. The OilCityWashington.com website also provides a great platform for sharing tiny cabin information, camping tips, camp and cabin recipes and sustainable living ideas. Because Oil City is remote I decided that Facebook would be a convenient interface for the website to connect with others in the local area. So many awesome people and organizations reside in this area of the peninsula that are active on Facebook. I’m looking forward to sharing more of this rich local culture with the OilCityWashington.com
website and Facebook readers in the future. I’m also very excited about the OilCityWashington.com online store. I think the Oil City T-shirts, hats and other gear provide a great way to feel connected to the remote community. Because Forks is the nearest “metropolitan” area to Oil City, the online store features a section of great Forks gear as well. Besides helping those seeking information related to Oil City, I thought it would be nice if the website could help other communities. To accomplish this I decided to donate proceeds from the OilCityWashington. com online store to Heifer International. I really admire Heifer International’s vision of creating change and opportunity through environmentally sustainable methods. I also believe in Heifer International’s concept of passing on the gift for creating an everexpanding network of peace,

harmony and equality on the planet. I never imagined there would be so much interest in OilCityWashington.com when I created it. It’s really inspiring reading all the emails from OilCityWashington.com readers saying how much they enjoy the website, sharing in-
374-3311
formation and even wanting to know how they can purchase Oil City real estate. I think the secret to OilCityWashington.com’s success is sharing with others. Magic happens when you care about and help others … and I definitely believe this area of the peninsula is magical.
