Forks Chamber welcomed to the Kit.la Center It was a little chilly in the Roundhouse at the former 110 Business Park on Wednesday, Feb. 25, but the welcome from the Quileute Tribe was warm as the tribe hosted the weekly noon meeting at the recently purchased facility. An estimated 65 chamber members and guests were treated to a delicious lunch and a glimpse of what the Quileute Tribe has planned for the future. Vince Penn, Cathy Salazar, Bev Loudin and Naomi Jacobson welcomed the group with drumming and a song. After a few meeting formalities were taken care of by chamber president Don Grafstrom, James Jaime, the new Quileute Tribe Enterprise Director, welcomed everyone and explained the name of the new tribal venture. “Kit.la Center” comes from the old language kwò?lìyo’tilo, Quileute, kìt’layakw?o’kw meaning upstream prairie place, which is what the Quileute ancestors called Forks. (kate-lah-yakw-oak English – Quileute pronunciation) Jaime thanked artist Vern Hestand for his creation of a carved wooden sign that will be displayed at the center. Jaime also acknowledged Bill and Kitty Sperry for their efforts in starting the drum group. Naomi Jacobson, Quileute Tribe Vice Chairperson, spoke about bringing back the Quileute language. Cathy Salazar, Tribal Council Secretary, thanked the chamber and the community of Forks for their help last year over the tribal dispute raised by the Quileute tribe’s objections when out-of-area tribes were allowed to hunt on three state Department of Fish and Wildlife game management units in Clallam County. She was happy to announce that the decision by the WDFW recently had been reversed. About his new position and the new Kit.la Center Jaime said, “I accepted this job primarily because of

the connection to the Kit.la Center and the possibilities of developing a Heritage Park. A place to showcase the tradition and culture of the region. Our goal is to build partnerships and leverage resources to develop the Kit.la Center into an enrichment facility. The tribe will engage in repatriation efforts to return artifacts to the place of

origin. The Red Lizard Rock “Xa’lax.ti the house of Red Lizard” will be a center piece in this project.” The question was asked if the Roundhouse still will be called the Roundhouse. Jaime joked that it was a roundhouse, in fact maybe the largest roundhouse, and it probably still will be called the Roundhouse.

Dear Editor: Today, leaving Thriftway, I bought a box of Girl Scout cookies. Driving home I became increasingly uncomfortable. The two Scouts were business-like, had constructed an eye-catching vendor’s booth and demonstrated knowledge about the product line. The message portrayed in a gentleman’s comments worried me. He told the girls he couldn’t eat cookies but never missed a chance to give money to pretty girls. Youth fundraising is abundant in this town and I make a practice to be selective. I don’t donate if the parents are doing all the work. I don’t donate unless the child can look me in the eye and explains her cause, convinces me to believe in it enough to contribute. I don’t believe all the fundraising for youth programs necessarily serves youth in the long run. I refuse to contribute to the $70,000 Senior Party “Safe Night” because it appears to me that the commu-

On Sunday, Spartan fans organized a welcome home reception with cars and the fire truck. They were waiting at the north end of town for the bus. Unfortunately the team entered town via the Aberdeen route and missed the escort. The Spartans came home with a sixth-place trophy.

Moms, I hope you have a conversation with your daughters about all the things that make your daughters valuable aside from being pretty. I paid them because they impressed me with excellent saleswomanship and I love Samoas! Best wishes as you ascend in Scouting. Sincerely, Patsy Brown Forks Editors note: A clarification, the Senior Party Safe Night is funded by senior parent fundraising activities which includes the Senior Parent Cafe at the Quillayute Valley Scholarship Auction. No funds raised from the auction of items at the QVSA go to fund Senior Safe Night, those funds go to scholarships.

Mystery coin remembered

Dear Editor, I received the paper and read the article on the Mystery Coin. My mother and father bought The Smoke Shop after Mr. Bru owned it, Pete and Esther Hallman. They owned it for several years. The coin is a token given to customers when they bought several drinks at a time. Then in turn, the next time they came in they could trade the coin for drinks. Unfortunately, I do not know how many years my parents owned the tavern but I was born in 1951 in Forks and raised in Forks. Also we have a Brooklyn Tavern outside of Raymond. One day we stopped there. The 80-year-old owner gave us two wooden tokens which said on them “Good for one

free beer.” It’s to get you to come back as a customer to that establishment and thanking you for your patronage. Yes, we still have the coins but I do remember my mother told me not to take wooden nickels — an old saying, God bless her. I greatly enjoy reading the Forks Forum and staying in touch with the lives of the people in Forks. Just a coin story can open up history and memories for some of us. Thank You Leila Hallman Pearson Raymond Editors note: Forks antique dealer Dave Allen also called the Forum with the same information about the coin. Allen said the tokens were aluminum or brass and were meant to get customers to come back. Allen said the tokens are quite collectable.

City seeking help with survey The City of Forks is asking for your help in its efforts to comply with a state requirement to update the City’s Comprehensive Plan. The Comprehensive Plan helps establish policies, goals and objectives for the next 7-10 year period. In an effort to help incorporate a larger perspective, the city, working with its professional consultant Tom Beckwith has developed a survey that city officials are asking you to take the time to fill out. The survey is available

online at www.surveymonkey. com/r/ForksCompPlan, via the link on the city’s website, or you can fill out a paper copy of the survey which is available at Forks City Hall. All surveys need to be completed by March 31. Beckwith has agreed to draw from those surveys that are completed and signed, one person’s name to receive from him a $250 gift certificate. Only one individual will be drawn from those who complete the survey and include their contact information. The survey covers a wide

variety of topics ranging from land use, building design, community events, Clallam Transit service, transportation issues, etc. The survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and the information provided will be incorporated into the Forks Planning Commission’s efforts in revising the Comprehensive Plan. If people have questions, or would like to obtain a survey rather than access it online, contact Rod Fleck, attorney/ planner at 374-5412, ext. 245 or visit Forks City Hall.

THE REAL FORKS What the “F”? (As in Forks)

By Christy Rasmussen-Ford A reader e-mailed me a while ago and said, “If you know why the “F” on the new RAC looks out of proportion to the other letters spelling “Forks,” maybe you could enlighten us?” I had no other choice but to look into this considering that I am sometimes wrongly accused of being a serious journalist. My first step in the investigation was to do a drive-by. I drove around the building creeperishly slow. Yes, I was missing the creeper van, but if I could have gotten my hands on one, I would have used it … just for dramatic effect. Anyway, once I saw the “F” for myself, I realized that there was definitely something fishy going on here. Not good fishy like fresh halibut, but more like week-old salmon forgotten in the back of a truck. Yes, it was THAT fishy to think that the people in charge of this hadn’t noticed the “F” being weirdly small. If they did notice, why didn’t they fix it? I was about to find out. I interviewed the usual suspects. I heard a lot of, “We are not authorized to talk to you about this.” and “Make up your own story like you usually do.” I was clearly being stonewalled. People were willing to go great lengths to keep this a secret. A serious journalist is never deterred by this kind of thing. I wouldn’t be either. I resolved to keep digging. I started questioning people more discretely. Citizens are often afraid of talking to journalists, especially ones who twist words and change facts. So instead of admitting to my investigation, I would say to acquaintances at the store, “So, how about that “F” on the RAC? What’s up with that?” You’d be surprised at how much gossip you can get this way. Actually, if you’ve lived in Forks long, you probably won’t be surprised at all. After much speculation of the oddly sized “F” being the fault of Congress, the work of aliens, and even the occasional global warming theory, it turns out that there was a much simpler explanation. Apparently there wasn’t enough room in the budget for a normal-sized “F”. Unbeknownst to most, “F” is a highly sought after letter in the letter industry. As is always the case with greedy corporations, the high demand means raised prices. This unknown price difference was not budgeted for in the original building plans. Once the builders became aware of the added expense, their only choice was to either leave off the “S” (meaning the building would say FORK) or to get a smaller “F”. Obviously the entire town of Forks would notice a missing “S”, but only eagle-eyed citizens would notice a smaller “F” … or so they thought. Once this column comes out, the truth will be known. That’s my job. It’s what I do. Kind of. For questions, comments or to donate your creeper van to my cause, e-mail me at 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

West End Women’s History March is Women’s History Month and “Weaving the Stories of Women’s Lives” is the theme for 2015. The theme presents the opportunity to weave women’s stories – individually and collectively – into the essential fabric of our nation’s history as well as our local history and an opportunity to honor women within our families and communities. When I think of the first women that made their way into the unknown that was the West End of Clallam County I can’t even imagine what life must have been like. Wilhelmina Oberg Wahlgren Dorst was born in Finland in 1871. In 1888 she and her brother Joel arrived at Port Crescent to meet their father Carl Oberg who had taken up a preemption claim there. She made the acquaintance of Richard Wahlgren and a month after her arrival in a new country, accompanied by her father, chartered an Indian canoe, and made a hazardous trip to Victoria to be married. There was no justice of the peace at Port Crescent. In the afternoon after the ceremony, the wedding party started the return trip. A wind sprang up and high waves tossed the canoe, they feared for their lives. Thankfully the

Indian canoeists were skillful men and finally landed safely at Salt Creek. The young bride soon learned that her new husband had plans to leave Port Crescent and travel further into the wilderness to homestead at Bear Creek. The couple traveled by boat to Pysht, then dugout canoe and then horseback to Beaver and from Beaver by way of an elk trail to her new home. Walhgren’s new life called upon all the fortitude of her character. The living conditions were rugged. Six of her seven children eventually would be born on the homestead, with no doctor or nurse to attend. Her firstborn, Oscar, was the first white child to be born in the Bear Creek district. The in 1903 the unthinkable happened — she became widowed. With five young children to provide for, a difficult life had then become even more uncertain. To further add to her difficulties, she was going blind. With unwavering courage she carried on, providing for her children. Moving back to Port Crescent, she did washing for the local loggers by hand using washboards. In 1913, she married Henry

Dorst and moved back to the homestead at Bear Creek where two more children were born. In her book, “Memories of a Quillayute and Sol Duc Country Pioneer,” Iva Wahlgren recalled watching her mother-in-law doing her work. “She couldn’t see daylight from dark, although she did all her own work, made her own bread and cakes, did her own mending, even knitting stockings.” She admitted blindfolding herself and trying to do the same tasks, but always having to peek. Some amazing women raised their families on the West End. They cooked the meals, washed the clothes, dealt with sickness and death of spouses and children. Along the way they organized churches and schools, worked in family businesses. While some of these women may not have been acknowledged in any history book, their lives and contributions made our community a better place to live. Christi Baron, Editor

Community News SENIOR PARENTS PLAN FUNDRAISER Senior parents are selling firewood, split and delivered to the Forks area, $175 per cord; contact Deric Kettel at 640-1575 or Patty Brandt at 640-9728. Funds raised will go to provide a safe graduation night for the Class of 2015. COUNTY ANNOUNCES SEPTIC SYSTEM INSPECTION REBATES Current state regulations require Clallam County Environmental Health to track septic system locations and inspection records of all septic systems in Clallam County. Septic systems

must be inspected at least once every three years for gravity septic systems and annually for all other septic systems. To help homeowners comply with the law, Environmental Health, for a limited time, is offering a $100 rebate for qualifying septic systems. First priority will be given to properties in the Marine Recovery Area (from Deer Park Road east to the county line) for which no septic permit records are on file with EH and require a system locate and current inspection by a qualified professional. Owners of these systems already should have received letters from EH about the status of

their septic system. Second priority will be given to older septic systems for which records exist but there are no records of inspection, generally most septic systems installed before the 1990s. Third priority will be given to properties for which septic permit and inspection records exist but do not have a current inspection on file with EH. Rebates are available through May 15. Funds are limited and first priority systems will receive rebates ahead of other priorities. To be eligible for the rebate, the property must meet one of the above conditions and the homeowner must have the sys-

tem located, if necessary, and have a professional inspection, complete any required maintenance and submit proof of inspection and receipts to EH by May 15. Lists of qualified Operation and Maintenance (O&M) providers and professional inspectors can be found at www.clallam.net/Septic. More information on the rebate program can be accessed at www.clallam.net/Septic. To find out if your septic system qualifies for the rebate, contact Environmental Health at 417-2350 or email EnviroHealth@co.clallam.wa.us. Provide the physical address

of your septic system in your message.

WORLD DAY OF PRAYER 2015 Women, men and children in more than 170 countries and regions will celebrate World Day of Prayer, Friday, March 6. This year, the women of the WDP Committee of The Bahamas call us to consider Jesus’ words to the disciples after washing their feet: “Do you understand what I have done for you?” The women of The Bahamas describe what Jesus does when he washes the disciples’ feet as “radical love.” Radical love comes from humility, compassion and commitment. God’s radical love is not static or self-centered; it reaches out and draws others in. Through this service, the women of WDP Bahamas give us an invitation to beauty and love in the name of the trans-

formative and radical love that Jesus brings to us all. The World Day of Prayer, an ecumenical gathering to pray for women and children around the world, will be at 12:05 p.m. Friday, March 6, in Forks, at The Caring Place, 841 W. E St. There will be a brief service written by women from the Bahamas and then a light lunch. Friends, family and all communities of faith are invited to join the women of The Bahamas in prayer and song to support ecumenical efforts toward justice, peace, healing and wholeness. The annual offering supports the work of World Day of Prayer USA and helps meet the needs of families in The Bahamas and around the world who are victims of many forms of poverty, violence and injustice. World Day of Prayer is a worldwide ecumenical movement of Christian women of many traditions who come together to observe a common day of prayer each year on the first Friday in March. World Day of Prayer was founded on the idea that prayer and action are inseparable. Services begin at sunrise in the Pacific and follow the sun across the globe on the day of celebration. Each year a different country’s committee serves as the writers of the World Day of Prayer worship service. World Day of Prayer USA promotes justice and equality for women through prayer, partnerships, service and celebration. For more information, contact the Caring Place at 374-5010 or the national office of World Day of Prayer USA (www.wdp-usa.org). www. facebook.com/worlddayofprayerusa.

Clallam County Sheriff’s Office staff promotions On Monday, March 2, Sheriff Bill Benedict promoted Ronald R. Cameron to the position of undersheriff; Sgt. Brian King to the position of chief criminal deputy; and Deputy Jim Dixon to the position of patrol sergeant. Cameron currently serves as the chief criminal deputy and has been with the sheriff’s office since March 1, 1985, when he was hired as a patrol deputy. In May 1990, Cameron transferred to the detective unit where he remained until his promotion to patrol sergeant in February 1999. On March 1, 2002, Cameron was promoted to captain and in September 2007 he was sworn in as the chief criminal deputy. King currently works the west end

of Clallam County as the patrol sergeant. King was hired as a deputy sheriff in August 2001 then transferred to the detective unit in April 2006. On Jan. 1, 2008, King was promoted to patrol sergeant. Dixon was hired as a lateral entry patrol deputy in June 2007 after serving as a police officer for the City of Forks for 9 years. Dixon is very familiar with the West End community and will be living and working out west. The swearing-in ceremony took place at 10 a.m. in the Emergency Operations Center, 223 E. Fourth St. in Port Angeles. King said, “The West End will lose my sole attention as

I think the new position will benefit the people of Forks as well. Jim Dixon is now work-

my responsibilities now shift as the chief deputy to all the area operations countywide.

Our second event is “Native Trees of Western Washington

ONRC’s third event is Lonnie Archibald with a showcase of photos and a book signing for his latest work: “Here on the Home Front: World War II in Clallam County.” This event will be from 2-5 p.m. Saturday, March 14, in the Social Hall at UW’s Olympic Natural Resources Center in Forks. He and his camera are a familiar sight around the Olym-

pic Peninsula as he chronicles community events and breaking news for the Forks Forum and Peninsula Daily News. Not only have his photos been included in Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia and Alaskan newspapers, they have been shown by the Associated Press, CNN and Fox News. Many of his photographs have won awards for outstanding images, including the “News Photo of the Year” by the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association in 2011. Saturday’s event is an informal opportunity to view some of Archibald’s photography, have him sign copies of his newest book, and share some conversation with him over his favorite photos. A long-time Westender, Archibald joined the Forks community in 1957. Over the years he has combined his passion for photography and journalism with published works in outdoor magazines, newspapers and books. Working in collaboration with Ron Shearer and the Forks Lions Club, Archibald undertook a series of interviews with West End pioneers, creating a collection of more than 50 video recordings. These videos, In Search of a Memory, comprise one of the most extensive collections of area pioneer biographies and are now available to view at the Forks Timber Museum and the Forks Library. His first book “There was a Day: Stories of the Pioneers” was published in 1999. His skill has truly made the legacy of day-to-day life in the peninsula’s past available to future generations. He currently belongs to the West End Historical Society and enjoys recording local stories, free-lance photography, sharing time with family and fishing on the area rivers.

Our presenter is Dr. Ian Miller, Washington Sea Grant, coastal hazard specialist. Miller is an Olympic Peninsula expert on sea level rise, ocean acidification, marine debris, tsunamis, beach erosion and change, Washington coastal ecology, coastal sediment transport and geomorphology. A skilled science communicator and media spokesman, Miller is Washington Sea Grant’s coastal hazards specialist, working out of Peninsula College in Port Angeles as well as University of Washington’s Olympic Natural Resources Center in Forks. Miller works with coastal communities on the Olympic Peninsula to increase their ability to plan for and manage coastal hazards, including tsunami, chronic erosion, coastal flooding and hazards associated with climate change. To accomplish this, he uses a suite of tools including outreach, applied research, synthesis of existing science, and coordination to help coastal communities access funding and expertise to achieve their goals and implement their plans. Before joining Washington Sea Grant, Miller served as the education director of the Olympic Park Institute and as Washington field coordinator for the nonprofit Surfrider Foundation. Miller holds a bachelor’s degree in marine ecology from Western Washington University’s Huxley College of Environmental Studies and a doctorate in ocean sciences from the University of California, Santa Cruz. His graduate research focused on the transport and fate of sediment in the coastal zone adjacent to the Elwha River delta. Find him online blogging at the Coast Nerd Gazette.

Northwest, that was delivered electronically. In addition to the three forested DNR sites and roads in the west end of Jefferson County, the Navy wants to use 12 other locations in Olympic National Forest in western Clallam, Jefferson and Grays Harbor counties. The Forest Service is expected to rule on a permit for those sites later this year. The Navy has said electronic warfare training has been occurring in the Olympic

Peninsula airspace for more than 40 years — but without the electromagnetic emitters it is now proposing to use. In an effort to help train pilots in identifying enemy communications and targeting weapons, trucks equipped with antennas mounted 14 feet off the ground would emit electromagnetic radiation. The $11.5 million project would be the Navy’s first use of mobile emitters of electromagnetic radiation for training that pilots currently

simulate with internal aircraft controls. Dean Millett, Pacific District ranger for the U.S. Forest Service, said he expects to make a draft decision on a special-use road permit for the Olympic Peninsula locations by the middle of this year. Last September, Millett issued a decision notice in support of the Navy’s environmental assessment and finding of no significant impact, then restarted the comment process after complaints from peninsula residents who said they were unaware of the project. If Millet supports the Navy for a second time, those who submitted feedback during the comment period will have 45 days to object to Millett’s supervisors before a permit could be issued. The Forest Service has received almost 2,300 public comments on the project.

Concerns over postponed dredging in Quillayute harbor

U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer is asking the Army Corps of Engineers to complete a stalled dredging project at Quillayute Harbor and to hold the contractor accountable for the delay. The project manager for the contractor, however, said the dredging was delayed because of bad weather, high river flows, log jams and man-made debris that was not disclosed in the federal contract. Quileute tribal officials are backing the effort by the 6th District congressman, whose district includes the North Olympic Peninsula. “We’d like to thank Rep.

Kilmer for his support in trying to bring a reasonable resolution to this ongoing issue,” tribal Chairman Chas Woodruff said in a statement. Dredging of the harbor at LaPush is needed to maintain the tribe’s economically vital fishing fleet and the U.S. Coast Guard Station Quillayute River, the only search-andrescue station along 100 miles of coastline. The Army Corps Seattle District is overseeing a $1.47 million project to remove 79,000 cubic yards of sediment from the inner channel, outer channel and boat basin, which

supports a $4 million-per-year fishing industry. Quillayute Harbor was last dredged in 2011. It was due to be dredged again in 2013, but the work was delayed when Congress failed to pass a spending bill. After repeated reports of poor performance, the Army Corps Seattle District increased its direct oversight of the project, Kilmer said. Under the contact, dredging stopped Saturday and the equipment must be removed by Thursday, Graesser said. The project is expected to be rebid this year.

This was the scene last November when dredging operations got under way at LaPush. Mike Gurling photo

Forks Community Hospital — For Your Health What is pulmonary rehabilitation?

Pulmonary rehabilitation, also called pulmonary rehab or PR, is a broad spectrum program that helps improve the well-being of people who have chronic breathing problems. PR may benefit people that have COPD, sarcoidosis or cystic fibrosis. It also can help those that need lung surgery both before and after the surgery. PR is used as a medical therapy that may include exercize training, nutritional counseling, education on lung decease, energy conserving techniques, breathing strategies and psychological counseling. Doug Devine, FCH director of cardiopulmonary services, describes Forks Community Hospital’s program as very informal. When a patient is referred to Devine, he can run tests on various machines that determine the course of treatment to be taken. The goal is to get more oxygen into the patient’s system. Devine says that asthma also is a problem seen a lot in our area. Something that can help an asthma patient is washing bedding in hot water, 120 degrees, to kill dust mites. Also cockroaches can trigger asthma attacks. Another thing that can help lessen asthma attacks is no pets in the bedroom. Doug Beattie, of the FCH physical therapy department,

said, “Sometimes a patient has no energy and it is actually a lack of oxygen issue. The patient may need supplemental oxygen.” Devine added, “It is all about educating the patient. One of the best things a person can do is quit smoking, if they are a smoker, or don’t start in the first place.” March 9-15 is Pulmonary Rehabilitation Week. This observance focuses national attention on pulmonary rehabili-

tation’s contribution to enhancing the lives of people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. For more information, see the American Association of Cardiovascular and Pulmonary Rehabilitation at aacvpr@ aacvpr.org or www.aacvpr.org.

The pulmonary function diagnostic machine collects data as different gases can be mixed to test how the lungs are functioning. A typical test on this machine can last about an hour and a half. Photo Christi Baron

Forks eighth-grade honor roll students. Photo by Lonnie Archibald

February Students of the Month FJHS

The Student of the Month project is sponsored by Soroptimist International of the Olympic Rain Forest (SIORF) and Students of the Month are chosen by their peers and teachers. The Soroptimist women “adopted” the Forks Junior High School to help provide positive rewards for students who consistently display respect and responsibility for their behavior and academic achievement and to help with communication between the school and parents via a monthly newsletter published by SIORF and FJHS. Blake Hinchen is the son of Amanda Larson and Christopher Hinchen. He is a seventh-grade student in Mrs. Decker’s block class. Blake was chosen by his peers because he works really hard and doesn’t mess around. Blake does what’s right. He is always on time, respectful and polite, stays on task, and always tries to get good grades. Blake enjoys school, playing basketball, and hanging out with his friends. His hobbies include drawing, playing basketball and playing video games. Isabel Morelos is the daughter of Isabel Morelos. She is a seventh-grade student in Mr. Wheeler’s block class. Isabel was chosen by her peers because she is diligent about doing her work and getting it turned in on time. She always participates and comes to school on time. Isabel doesn’t give up. She is kind to everyone and has great grades. In her free time, Isabel enjoys music, friends and watching Netflix. Her hobbies include drawing and playing sports. Riley Ray, son of Tina and Casey Ray, is an eighth-grader who is in Mr. Burton’s block class. Riley was chosen by his peers because he is nice and helps everyone. Riley respects others and is a really kind person. He enjoys watching Anime and YouTube videos and playing with his dog. His friends say that he is talented at making funny noises, creating slideshows and writing. Hailey Casler, daughter of Tina and Jeremy Dawkins, is an eighth-grader who is in Mr. Burtons’ block class. She was chosen by her peers because she is always on time, passes all of her classes and is kind to others. Hailey enjoys listening to music and reading books. Her hobbies include drawing and traveling to new places. Congratulations to theseFebruary Students of the Month who received a certificate and a $25gift card to Barnes and Noble. Students were honored with their parents at a luncheonat school. Be sure to look for all of the Student of the Month pictures in the hall display case at FJHS.

These Forks seventh-graders made the honor roll and were honored during the Soroptimists Honor Breakfast held at the school commons Feb. 24. Treats were served and the junior high/high school jazz band played under the direction of Mathew Kuka. Photo by Lonnie Archibald

Yella Dawg Fly Shop The summer of 2007 the life of Gordon Gracey changed forever. After a terrible accident that left his left arm permanently paralyzed, right eye blind and damage to his brain, Gordy’s life as an outdoorsman would never be the same. Gordy could no longer row a boat and he longed for the solitude that fly-fishing had once brought to him. As Gordy recovered, his friend Bob Gooding, of Olympic Sporting Goods, offered up the back portion of his store and Gordy opened up Yella Dawg Flyshop. Gordy can be found most days in his shop where he encourages customers to create their own top secret and top fish catching flies and jigs for their next trip to the river because as Gordy says, “It sure is great spending time out on the river, out in nature.” Gordy has a great selection of classic and the latest materials available right here in downtown Forks. Gordy’s fly-tying machine

Gordy Gracey demonstrates tying flies one-handed with his special machine. Photo Christi Baron

has been provided to him as a prototype from the Federation of Fly-Fishing and Operation Healing Waters that assists veterans that have had injuries that have left them unable to use both hands. The special machine has a magnet plate on one side that holds the the next item to be attached to the fly. Gordy says he has some great friends that have taken him fishing and he has even tried rowing with one hand. He even has a special rod holder that his friend Chris Whidden created for him. Gordy once took former President Jimmy Carter fishing and is proud of the fact since his accident he has

received several letters of encouragement from him. Gordy and his wife Kim would most like to thank their friend Bob Gooding for his kindness in providing a spot for Yella Dawg — a place where Gordy can still be connected to the outdoors and his love of fishing.

The Perfect Balance

FORKS FORUM

Questions and answers with photographer Pam Suslick Do you know Pam Suslick? Well, if you are at many sporting events in Forks, you have seen her taking photos, and if you are the parent of a Forks child that plays sports, you probably have some of her work. But what else do you know? How long have you lived in Forks? 24 years What is your “day job”? I work with a great group of people in the Public Works department at the DNR and have been there in the same job for 25 years. Your family members are? Husband Bryan (Fire District

Manager for the DNR) daughter Megan, student at Peninsula College. How long have you been interested in photography? I bought my first digital camera when they came out and having been taking pictures ever since. When did you start taking sports photos? I started in the sport photos when Megan was a freshman. I would go to the sporting events to support the teams and started taking pictures. What do you like about sports photography? The people and the kids in this community are great.

If someone needs a group picture, they will call me and work a schedule that fits for all of us. My hobby has to work with my job, which in turns helps support my hobby. It is nice that sooner or later you get to know the kids in the community. They then tend to feel more comfortable having their pictures taken and photo shoots become fun, at least for me anyway. What sports do you photograph? I like to take pictures of all the school sports. The adult tournaments, both basketball and softball, are a great way to spend the day taking pictures. These tournaments follow a lot different rules than the school

sports do, so it can make for some intense and interesting pictures. Do you have a favorite sport to photograph? OK, don’t laugh at me here, but my all-time favorite sport to photograph is … rodeo bull riding. That would be followed closely by wrestling. A lot of heart, concentration and work go into both. And there are no givens on the outcome of either.

We will be open

Do you have a favorite photo? My favorite photo is of Pete Breed and his granddaughter walking through the park at the ballfields while a softball tournament was going on. My second favorite is the snowy owl pictures. They only come this way every so often, so you have to get pictures when you can. This picture is from Damon Point. My third favorite picture, while technically not correct, is of two of this year’s high school seniors. I just like it for no other reason than I do. What type of camera do you use? I use a Canon camera.

Always accepting new patients

Could you explain the satisfaction you get or what drives you to take all these pictures? Forks is a great community. And the support that is given to all the functions that take place here is heartwarming. There is something going on in this community all the time. It is both touching and inspiring. There is more that happens than I could ever begin to attend, but I sure give it my best effort. Are there other things you like to take photos of? My favorite thing to take pictures of is eagles. Some days it takes me forever to drive around the lake, I know every turnout and pullover there is. Any parting thoughts? I would love to see the college offer photography classes to the community of Forks. There are a lot of digital cameras in this community and I think it is time to reach out and connect with those photographers. I also would like to see a photography club in Forks — I am going to work on that one. Editor’s note: Pam sometimes shares her photos with the Forks Forum. She recently sent in a group photo of the Spartan wrestlers, which appeared on the front page of the paper, and her name got misspelled in the photo credit. That is Suslick not Susick.
