OH, state hit with $25 mil civil lawsuit Arrested holistic practitioner claims he can legally practice under ‘Nedicine’ trademark By JANIS REID Staff reporter
A holistic practitioner who was arrested by Oak Harbor police in March is suing the state Department of Health and the city for $25 million. C. Hugh Jonson filed the lawsuit in Federal Court in Seattle last month claiming that he should be able to practice “nedicine” — not to be confused with medicine — under a federal trademark. Jonson and the organization that issued his license are fighting on a national level to retain their right to practice their own brand of natural medicine. “THE THREATS and conduct of the state and its agents in attempting to interfere with my federally trademarked and licensed right to practice in the field of Nedicine under a regulated program of energetic natural medicine leaving me with no choice but to seek the protection of this court …,” Jonson stated in court documents. Jonson was arrested in March by Oak Harbor police on suspicion of practicing medicine without a license after opening Whidbey Naturals in December on State Highway 20. His partner, Arely Jimenez-Beckius, was arrested the previous month for the same reason. To date, neither practitioner has held a license to practice medicine in Washington state. A message left at a phone number listed on court documents for Jonson was unreturned by press time. SEE NEDICINE, A20

Lawmaker wrangling stalling plans for coming school year
By DEBRA VAUGHN Staff Reporter
Oak Harbor School District is in a waiting game that’s left some crucial decisions undecided, including which schools some kindergarteners will attend next fall. Local school officials need to know if state lawmakers will
approve a measure to pay for full-day kindergarten and another that mandates how schools should reduce class sizes. School officials have a long list of details that need to be buttoned down before students return to class in the fall. For starters, they may need to hire teachers, buy thousands of dollars of SEE SCHOOLS, A12
Disease-stricken starfish population starting to rebound By JANIS REID Staff reporter
Sea stars around Whidbey Island are making a slow recovery after the effects of a deadly dis-
ease wiped out millions of them over the past year. Locals who frequent the shores and sea floor of Puget Sound are seeing a new, healthy population
of sea stars. “So far we don’t see wasting sea stars around Whidbey, and we all hope it will stay that way,” said Langley diver Jan Kocian.
“Of course, the numbers are still way down and certain species of sea stars are still missing, especially the Sunflower star.” Initially puzzled by the phenom-
ena, scientists finally pin-pointed the pathogen causing the sea star wasting disease late last year.

Garage of Blessings once again outgrows space By RON NEWBERRY
K Staff reporter
ristiina Miller isn’t one to shy away from thinking big. The Garage of Blessings thrift store she founded three years ago — where everything is free — has again reached its ceiling in growth. Almost literally. Truck and carloads of continued donations have prompted Miller to make a plea to the community for a larger location to distribute these items. She recently sent email blasts and posted social media messages inviting the community to join forces and help her build her dream of finding a new, permanent location for the Garage of Blessings with a minimum of 10,000 square feet. The store moved into its current 4,000-square-foot building on Goldie Road in August but has outgrown that location, she said. She said volunteers can’t sort through donations fast enough before more items come in, sometimes causing piles to be stacked upon other piles, and making it difficult at times for customers to navigate through the store. “We’re bursting at the seams,” Miller said. Miller is moved by the community’s overwhelming number of “blessings,” which have inspired
her to dream bigger. In her communications to the community, she posed the idea of moving into the vacant Kmart building, sharing the massive space with other nonprofits to create a large, one-stop giving community to help those in need. She’s stepped back some from that ambitious notion and is instead focusing more on a more realistic plan to land a permanent building at a size that would be better equipped to handle the number of donations the organization receives. About 700 vehicles pull up and drop off donations to the Garage of Blessings every month, Miller said. She said other organizations will bring items in bulk to her store. Donations may range from leftover items from garage or estate sales to people who are simply downsizing their lives or moving. Miller said she hasn’t seen the sorting room floor near the store’s entrance in about four months because new donations keep coming in. “We’re packed to the brim,” said Shila Moffett, a volunteer for three years. “We’ve grown a lot. “This is the most donations I’ve seen come in.” The donations result in more joy to spread to others. The volunteers said they enjoy that aspect most about working at the store. The Garage of Blessings serves about 3,000 people a month, accord-

Have it. We bless anybody. It doesn’t matter if you’re rich or poor. If we have something for you, you’re more than welcome to it.” The Garage of Blessings started in Miller’s garage at her Oak Harbor home and has moved to five different locations. Miller said she hopes the next
move is the last, and that’s why she’s thinking big. “What I need right now is someone in this community who owns land or a building who says, ‘I can see your vision. Let’s do this,’” Miller said. “All I need is a building.” She’s made inquiries with owners of some vacant buildings in the city but has found the rent to be more than the organization can afford.
Garage of Blessings has put aside a number of items designated for its annual parking lot sale fundraiser, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., June 13-14. All of the proceeds go toward rent and utilities, Miller said. n For those interested in helping the Garage of Blessings find a new home, contact Miller at 360-6791239 or send an email to info@ thegarageofblessings.com

OAK HARBOR SCHOOLS
E D U C AT I O N College comes to Oak Harbor High. Students Mara Powers (left) and Claire Anderson in an AP English Language Composition class. Claire is also enrolled to obtain college credit for English 102 as part of her curriculum.
Opening Doors to the Future As school programs expand, student achievement soars
The highly successful College in the High School Program is one of the most exciting additions. Offered in partnership with Central Washington University, the program allows students to take college level courses at Oak Harbor High and receive university credits. High school teachers become adjunct faculty members of Central Washington in order to teach one of the nine courses ranging from calculus and statistics to advanced French and Spanish.
Oak Harbor Schools recognize that students possess a range of talents best developed through a well-rounded curriculum that includes academics, the arts, physical activity, career-technology courses and enrichment. That’s why they offer more class choices than neighboring districts and there’s increasing evidence that the investment is paying off. • Student testing results for 2014 rank at or above the state average in 23 out of 25 tested areas across all grade levels. • Enrollment in Advanced Placement Courses has risen 58% since 2008 and test passing results surpass both the state and global averages. Students also earned nearly $6 million in scholarship awards in 2014. • Local schools are among the state’s best. Oak Harbor Middle School earned the 2014 Washington Achievement Award and Crescent Harbor Elementary joined just 5% of state schools earning the Washington School of Distinction Award in 2014 and 2013.
Nearly 200 students have completed courses, earning more than 1,400 college credits and generating a tuition equivalent of nearly $500,000. Principal Dwight Lundstrom said the program is a great springboard to college. “Besides the cost savings for families, the greatest benefit is the opportunity for students to learn they are capable of accomplishing college-level coursework.”
Prepared for the Future The graduation of nearly 400 Oak Harbor seniors is just one week away. With a solid foundation beneath them, graduates are well prepared to take on the world with confidence. Their commitment to learning has helped pave the way for much of the recent progress and will leave an enduring legacy for the next generation of learners and leaders.
Oak Harbor Schools have nurtured the hearts and minds of our community’s youth for more than 100 years. In just the past two years, school enrollment has leaped by nearly 150, filling classrooms with renewed energy, creativity and growth. Programs have expanded, spurred by voter approval of the 2013 school levy. This support is the catalyst behind many of the new efforts that are making a dramatic and enduring impact on student learning and progress.

ABOVE BEYOND Global Reach
Career-technical education programs at Oak Harbor High are garnering recognition. Wildcat Catering was named an “Elite 50” program by Sullivan University and ranked sixth in the nation at the national ProStart Competition. The DECA program placed four teams in the nation’s top ten. The Naval Junior ROTC program was named a “Distinguished Unit with Academic Honors” for the tenth straight year and the Robotics team ranked in the top 50 internationally in 2014.
Green Giant
Hillcrest Elementary was named a 2015 Green Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education, an achievement reserved for only 58 schools in the country. The award recognizes their outstanding efforts to reduce environmental impact and promote health.
Ready to Serve
Two high school seniors have been appointed to U.S. service academies. Marisa Sligh, a top ten academic senior, to the Air Force Academy and Zachary Johnson to the Naval Academy.
Second Chance
Oak Harbor’s iGrad Academy is giving high school dropouts a second chance. The program reaches out to re-enroll students and help them complete unfinished work online for their diploma. So far, three prior dropouts have graduated, three more are on track to graduate; and two earned their GED. Did you know our schools are now on Facebook? www.facebook.com/oakharborps

CORRECTION n Dave Crume is a floor covering sales representative at Oak Harbor’s SherwinWilliams store. Crume’s name was misspelled in the caption of a photo published in the May 27 issue of the Whidbey News-Times. We regret the error.
After less than five months, Dave Smith resigned from the board that oversees the North Whidbey Parks and Recreation District. Smith cited a busy schedule as the reason for his resignation. His departure is one in a series of resignations at the district both on the board and in the executive director position. The board is vetting a final candidate to fill the executive director job after Gino Wolfe, resigned Jan. 1. Only board Chairman Sean Merrill, in his last year of a fouryear term, stuck out his commitment as an elected official. All four of the other positions were filled by appointments — three in the last year. Smith was appointed to the board in January to fill the seat vacated by Allan McDougall, who also resigned. At the time, Smith told the board, “This is my community. That’s the reason — it’s my community, and I want to participate in it.” Smith did not return calls
to the Whidbey News-Times, but in a resignation letter he wrote: “I am no longer able to perform due diligence to my appointed position,” and, “I must in the interest of district business resign this position.” “My current schedule restricts participation in the majority of our meetings.” All five of the board positions will be on the next ballot. Board members Donna Sue Holly and Wendy Shingleton filed to run. Three new candidates have filed to serve on the board: Richard Fort, Cecil Pierce and Shane Hoffmire, the son of current board member Steve Hoffmire. North Whidbey Park and Recreation is a special purpose district that stretches outside of city borders, serving the same area as Oak Harbor Public Schools. Although operating the John Vanderzicht Memorial Pool is a substantial part of what the district does, it also does more, including managing two community parks and providing aquatic and fitness programs for people of all ages.

OBITUARY
O’Dell
Nicholas O’Dell
Nicholas Michael O’Dell grew up in Woodinville and Oak Harbor. For the last six years, Nick resided in Bellingham. An entrepreneur like his parents, the thrill of creating something larger than himself drove him to accomplish many things in the short span of his 25 years of life. He began working when he was just 14 years old, doing farming and yard work. Nick briefly attended Western University and Bellingham Technical College, but soon realized his true passion for business and cars. Nick was a beloved member of the Bellingham community, touching many people with his generous heart and adventurous spirit. Nick opened his first garage with his friend Aaron at the age of 19 and later opened an Internet car sales/dealership with his friend Carlos. Nick was a thrill-seeker in every aspect of his life and thrived off of his independence and ambition.
A globe trotter at heart, Nick had the opportunity to travel to many places and meet people from all walks of life. From Asia to South America, Nick saw more of the world than most could ever hope to. His jet-setting was an inspiration to everyone who knew him. Nick also loved hiking, fishing and camping with his friends. He was an avid Mariners and Seahawks fan — even holding the 12th Man Flag from a mountain top in Korea during the 2015 Super Bowl. Regardless of where Nick’s travels brought him, he was always eager to return home and get back to work. On Wednesday, May 13, 2015, Nick joined his father for his greatest adventure. After an outpouring of shared stories from his friends and family — and, of course, catching one last Mariners’ game — Nick took a trip to the great beyond peacefully and surrounded with love. Though taken from his family and friends too soon, Nick lived his dream until his last moments on earth. Nick is survived by his mother, Madonna, and his siblings, twin sister Arianna, Cady, Max and Trevor. Nick’s charisma and passion for life will never be forgotten and will be a reminder to his friends and family to live each and every day to the fullest. A memorial service will be held for Nick from 2-5 p.m. on Saturday, June 13, 2015, at the Majestic Hall, 1027 N. Forest St., Bellingham, WA 98225. Please share your thoughts and memories of Nick on-line at www.sigsfuneralservices. com

IN OUR OPINION Humans can harm the environment, and must strive to save it It’s good news that the starfish population is bouncing back after a disease wiped out large numbers of the echinoderms. Starfish wasting is also a good reminder of how delicate our ecosystem is, and why we need to take steps to protect our seas, oceans and other waterways. Microbeads are rapidly emerging as a damaging product that’s spilling into our ecosystem, and they’re starting to turn up in the foods that we eat. Microbeads are those tiny pieces of plastic commonly used in facial scrubs, hand soaps, toothpaste and other personal grooming products found in our bathrooms. They really serve no purpose other than in marketing a product to consumers. The problem is, microbeads don’t biodegrade. Scientists studying the Great Lakes and ocean environments have sounded the alarm that polyethylene beads are damaging to the fish that eat them. Other states have addressed microbeads, but a bill in the Washington State Legislature has languised. Ultimately, it will likely be up to consumers to address the growing threat to our food chain by calling for changes and rejecting products containing microbeads. Major corporations have shown a willingness to enact changes in the wake of findings about the impacts of microbeads. After publicly declaring microbeads as safe, mega-giant Proctor & Gamble did an about face and announced it is phasing out use of the microbeads in Crest toothpaste. One product down, but many more to go. Proctor & Gamble didn’t make the same decision for some of its Olay products that include polyethylene beads. Microbeads also are prevalent in many products sold by Johnson & Johnson. Humans are by default the stewards of the environment and need to use their consumer and voting power to protect our natural resources. On Whidbey Island, it’s no secret that the marine environment is a huge part of what draws people here to live and play. The March 2012 burning and sinking of the marine vessel Deep Sea was a very in-your-face demonstration of the significant damage to our surround waters that can be caused by humans. As consumers, we have have the clout to get companies to remove microbeads. It’s a matter of speaking up and directing your spending to products that are more friendly to the environment. Ultimately, it has everything to do with the quality of life we enjoy on Whidbey Island, in the United States and throughout the world.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Island Transit
Could learn from Whatcom Transit Editor, Imagine my surprise to see a classified want ad for a “part-time, next-tohire” driver for Island Transit in the same edition of the paper with the front page story about Island Transit axing the route to Anacortes/March Point. Axing Saturday service apparently wasn’t enough. Island Transit is looking to hire people? I don’t recall seeing or hearing anything about them calling back all the poor souls who were laid off in the Martha Rose “Where’d all the money go?” debacle. Were those folks called back? And is there really anyone desperate enough to apply for a job with a company still so incredibly slipshod? What’s also unbelievable is the vote to spend an outrageous capped $30,000 to do a study on whether charging fares would help. They should take a lesson from Whatcom Transit, which charges a nominal fare and runs seven days a week…to a whole lot of places. Apparently it does so successfully.
Instead, IT would rather blame a “lack of cooperation” with Skagit and Snohomish counties. I don’t and have never used Island Transit, but my children sure did, some still do and I know a great deal of people who heavily rely on the buses to get them where they need to go. What’s happened is so shameful, and I’m not sure IT can ever truly recover from the fiasco that was so carelessly created. Luanne Raavel Coupeville

Monson letter shows how great Johnson is Editor, After reading Michael Monson’s latest letter to the editor, I felt an overwhelming need to respond. Thank you for finally pointing out that Island County Commissioner Jill Johnson cares more about the welfare of children and families than about a few whiners who knowingly bought property near an airport, and now complain about the noise. With zero scientific proof of their claims, they are able to write their fiction about the Navy in the paper, and make up anything they want and get

attention. Thank you for pointing out your frustration that Johnson will not listen to such baseless claims. If these same “activists” cared as much about other humans in our society as they claim, they would put more value on the needs of this community for jobs. Instead, these wealthy, hypocritical, dishonest “activists” give little thought to those who already go hungry in our community. It shows a complete lack of compassion for those in poverty. Thank you for pointing out that Jill Johnson is not from the same cloth as you, Michael Monson. We need politicians like Commissioner Johnson because she cares more about doing what’s right for this community than the self-serving people that make up fiction and say it is a fact.

QUESTION
What do you think about Island Transit cutting the last bus route off the island?
OF THE WEEK:
“That’s a shame. They used to go clear to Mount Vernon”
“That’s the only transportation for people heading to the south end who don’t have cars.”
“I think it’s a bummer. I use the service to go to Mount Vernon and Anacortes. It’s going to affect a lot of people.”
Ruth Alexander Oak Harbor
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ments that you claim to have about health emergencies, the documentation about the $13,000 in window replacement by one of your members, just exactly how the Navy is violating NEPA since they are in the middle of a revised EIS, and justify your
remark about theoretical economic loss if the base were to close? I would like to see how you believe that, if the base were to close it would not be an economic disaster to those of us that live on this beautiful island. Michael Van Voorst Oak Harbor

OBITUARIES
Novarra
Vincent Perra Novarra
Vincent Perra Novarra passed peacefully on May 24, 2015. Vincent was born to Frank and Rose Novarra at Fort Casey on Whidbey
Island in 1928. He enjoyed growing up in the rural community of Whidbey Island. When he turned 19, he joined the U.S. Air Force, where he served for a total of seven years. He returned to live in Seattle and then Clinton, where he eventually retired after working at Simmons Garage as a mechanic. When he married his love, Betty Novarra, in 1979, he returned to Whidbey Island, where he remained until his death. In his days on Whidbey, he could be found serving at St. Hubert Catholic Church in Langley, as well as just being outside, working on something, always having another project to do. He is preceded in death by his parents, two sisters and one brother.
He is survived by his wife, Betty Novarra; brothers, Ralph (Noella) Novarra and Francis (Alice) Novarra; sister, Shirley (Gordon) Simmons; son, Don (Becky) Tuff; daughter, Debbie Stockholm; six grandchildren; 11 great-grandchildren; several nieces and nephews; and many life-long friends. This simple announcement cannot begin to explain the life of this wonderful man, who will be greatly missed. Its simplicity echoes the life of Vincent, a man whose simple guiding principle was to do the right thing and care about his family, friends and community. Services will be held at St. Hubert Catholic Church. Donations can be made to a charity of your choice.

SELECT SOCCER
The Philippines or the United States? Turnek may have to choose between countries
By JIM WALLER Sports editor
Jennifer Turnek may have a tough decision to make soon. Does she take the sure thing or wait for a call that may never come? Turnek, a 16-year-old sophomore at Oak Harbor High School, was recently named to the Philippines national women’s soccer team. She is one in a pool of 30 who can be called to compete in World Cup and Olympic qualifying matches for the Philippines. Or, does she wait to hear from the United States? Turnek was born and raised on Whidbey Island but has dual citizenship because her mother, Josefina Turnek, was born in the Philippines. Once she chooses to play for one country, she will be ineligible for the other. Her ultimate dream is to play for the USA national team, but there is no guarantee she will be selected. University of Washington head coach Amy Griffin, who is recruiting Turnek to play for the Huskies, recently reached out to the USA national soccer program on behalf of Turnek to find out if it has interest in Turnek before she plays for the Philippines. Griffin was told Turnek “is
on their radar.” If Turnek is chosen for the United States developmental program, it will still be a long grind to be selected to the national team. The Philippines could request Turnek’s services at any time. Turnek competed in a closed camp for the Philippines’ national team April 6-30 and earned a spot on the team. In fact, she was told by coach Buda Bautisa she made the starting 11. After camp broke, she didn’t leave with the team for a tournament in Vietnam because she wasn’t able to get her Philippines visa and FIFA paperwork completed on time. In addition to playing for Oak Harbor High School, Turnek competes for Northwest United, a select team based out of Burlington, and in the Puget Sound Premier League. She joined Northwest United when she was 11 and has helped the team win three league titles and four Washington Cups. Turnek and the Northwest United 98 girls reached the semifinals of the National Players League, and they are a leading performer in the Northwest Champions league, which includes teams from Washington, Idaho, Oregon and British

Oak Harbor’s Jen Turnek earned a spot on the Philippines’ national women’s team. Columbia. A Northwest United coach Joanna Houplin, who also plays for the Philippines national senior team, paved the way for Turnek’s tryout with the national team. Turnek’s only other visit to
the Philippines was when she was 7. This time she enjoyed being able to connect with her relatives and her mother’s homeland, although her commitment to soccer left little free time. She was one of three
North American girls at the camp, but since “99 percent of them spoke English,” communications wasn’t a problem, she said. “Almost all of them understood English, but some did not speak it well,” Turnek
said. “It gave me a different look at the world,” she said. “It made me more appreciative of what we have in the United States.” There was no Internet, and she didn’t care for the meals. “The food -- sheesh -- was fish and rice every meal. I don’t like fish, but I ate it. I did not want them to think I was unappreciative.” As a going away present, her teammates bought her a cheeseburger and put over 100 personal notes on her apartment door. The camp was a positive experience, Turnek said, but being gone three weeks from school created other challenges, like making up over 30 assignments. The camp also came in the center of a six-week whirlwind of soccer. Four days after playing in the Las Vegas Showcase, she competed in the Whitecap Showcase in Vancouver. Two days later she flew to San Francisco to get her passport, then traveled to the Philippines. Once back in the United States, she played in the State Cup. Turnek began playing soccer at age 4 at Windjammer Park. Could Olympic stadiums in Rio de Janeiro or Tokyo be next?
Rodeheffer, Fields, Oak Harbor girls golf team place at state By JIM WALLER Sports editor
Washington state high school spring sports finals are underway, and Oak Harbor and Coupeville athletes made a positive first step. Oak Harbor’s John Rodeheffer placed third in the 1,600 meters at the state 3A track meet, the Wildcat girls golf team placed ninth among Washington 3A schools and Coupeville’s Christine Fields finished sixth in the state 1A golf tournament.

John Rodeheffer shows off his thirdplace medal. Dejon Devroe, Jared Gray, Mac Nuanez and Sebastian Ceaser fin-
ished 10th (1.02 seconds out of eighth place) in the preliminaries and failed to qualify for the finals. The 1,600 was a tight race; the second- through fifth-place runners all finished within a second of each other. John Dressel of Mount Spokane won in 4:15.26. He was followed by Ingraham’s Patrick McDermott (4:16.98), Rodeheffer (4:17.08), North Central’s Andrew Vandine (4:17.18) and Nathan Hale’s Stuart Smith (4:17.6). “It was a strategic race that didn’t unfold exactly how we wanted, but John adapted and still ran a great race earning a top-three spot,” distance coach Eric Peterson said. “He’s focused and ready for the 3,200 on Saturday.” Lundstrom and three others jumped 5 feet, placing ninth through 12 based on tie breakers. She was two inches out of fourth place.
At the 1A meet in Cheney, Coupeville’s Dalton Martin (discus) and Skyler Lawrence (shot put) competed Friday; results were not available at press time. Makana Stone (400) and the 4x100 and 4x200 relay teams of Stone, Sylvia Hurlburt, Marisa Etzell and Lauren Grove ran preliminaries Friday with the finals on Saturday.
Fields in top 10 again Fields finished in the top 10 three times in the 1A girls golf tournament in her career, nabbing sixth Wednesday and Thursday at Pasco’s Sun Willows Golf Course. The senior placed eighth as a freshman, 15th as a sophomore and fifth last spring. Fields shot rounds of 83 and 86 this week for a 169. Elma’s Lauryn Keating won with a 149.
“Both days I had a hard time on the greens,” Fields said. “I hit the ball the best I have all season; unfortunately, my putts were another story. My first round I had five three-putts and a four-putt. The second round was the same story; I would set myself up well up to the green and then not get it done with the putting.” Oak Harbor’s Resego Mooki finished 33rd and Marisa Sligh 37th at the 3A tournament at Richland’s Horn Rapids Golf Course Wednesday and Thursday. They combined to put Oak Harbor ninth in the team standings. Teammate Hailey Beecher shot a 96 the first round and did not make the cut; she finished 43rd. At the boys 3A tournament at Kennewick’s Canyon Lake Golf Course, Wildcat Steven Timm shot a 91 the first day and did not qualify for the second round.

Author shares healthy dose of writing tips to hungry minds
By RON NEWBERRY Staff reporter
As they sat on the cafeteria floor, fourth graders from Kristi Krieg’s class were asked to close their eyes and create a character for a book from their imaginations. Katherine Pryor, a children’s book author from Seattle who was visiting Oak Harbor Elementary School, then prompted the class to think of a name for the character and determine if it was a boy or girl, a person or an animal. One child came up with a character in her head named “Bob the octopus.” “What can you tell me about Bob?” Pryor asked. “A whale wants to eat him,” came the reply. In a short exercise, Pryor got elementary school students to think about what it’s like to be an author. She spent the day at Oak Harbor Elementary Thursday, sharing with different classes how to create characters, build stories and other writing tools. “I didn’t think I would always be able to write for my job but I alway loved writing,” Pryor told Krieg’s class. “I always felt I had stories inside of me I wanted to share.” Pryor is finding her niche in picture books centered around healthy eating. She wrote her first book titled, “Sylvia’s Spinach,” which was published by Bellevuebased Readers to Eaters in October. Her second book, “Zora’s Zucchini,” by the same publisher, is expected

out this summer. Pryor’s background is rooted in advocating local and sustainable food systems. She is co-founder of South Park Fresh Starts, which grows vegetable starts for a food bank in Seattle. Lisa Phillips, who works as an aide in Oak Harbor Elementary’s literacy program and is also a beekeeper, met Pryor at a state farmers market association conference and asked school principal Dorothy Day if she could invite her to speak to students. Day liked the idea because of a “double tie-in” that related to her school. A school enrichment program led by Krieg has produced a garden club of about 20 students and an assortment of leafy vegetables growing in the school garden, pollinated in part by mason bees imported by Phillips. Through Department of Defense grants, educators also have received more extensive writing training the past two years, Day said. “It’s a great way for kids to have a real author here,” Day said. “She’s going to talk about her writing process and how to write a book. The plan is so they can see the connection with what they’re learning in the classroom to someone who’s actually published.” And reaching that goal requires determination and patience, Pryor told Krieg’s class. When she submitted a carefully-crafted draft of “Sylvia’s Spinach” to an editor from the publishing comFREELAND ART STUDIOS is holding its fifth open house from noon to 4 p.m., Saturday, June 13.

Children’s book author Katherine Pryor provides writing wisdom to Kristi Krieg’s fourth grade class at Oak Harbor Elementary.
Pryor’s talk resonated with students at Oak Harbor Elementary, where a student garden club participated in a school enrichment program that led to raising their own vegetable crops. pany for consideration, she said she was asked to revise the story about 10 different times. She said she has about 40 different drafts of “Zora’s Zucchini” on her laptop at home. “For a book that is 542 words,” she said with a laugh. “I revise it a lot. The story can always be better.” When Pryor spoke to Erica Bailey’s fifth grade students about developing a
story, she talked about the importance of creating a universal problem connected to a character in which others can identify. The character goes about solving that problem or problems in the story. Listening to a father talk about his own child’s experiences with eating spinach helped inspire Pryor’s first book. His daughter, just like the central character named Sylvia in Pryor’s book, didn’t like eating the dark green
vegetable until she planted some and watched it grow in a garden at home. “The reason why you eat food that’s grown close to home is because it tastes amazing,” Pryor said. Pryor said she’s been heavily involved with writing as a profession for three years but only in recent months has it become a fulltime venture. She’s writing books that not only focus on healthy eating but “making good food fun and funny,”
according to age groups. The illustrator in her books, Anna Raff, lives in New York City. Pryor said she wasn’t allowed to talk to Raff while she worked on illustrations for “Sylvia’s Spinach,” and was amazed at how the character turned out. “She looked almost exactly how I pictured her in my mind,” Pryor said. “She saw the same character in her imagination as I saw in mine.”

SCHOOLS CONTINUED FROM A1 supplies and decide where those extra kindergarten classes will go. It’s hard to do any of that because state lawmakers continue to squabble about the state budget. Friday lawmakers entered a second special session that could last as long as 30 days. “The biggest challenge is there are a lot of unknowns,” said Peter Hunt, school board president. While school districts statewide are waiting for the same answers, Oak Harbor has an additional unknown to plan for: the Navy. The U.S. Department of Defense identified a need for additional EA-18G Growlers to enhance the United State’s electronic attack capability and officials would like to place some of those squadrons at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station. The final number will be determined by Congress. Exactly how many personnel and their children are coming is unclear. The district could receive hundreds of new pupils. No decision will be made until the Navy completes an Environmental Impact Statement by the spring of 2017. The Navy also is replacing the P-3 Orion with P-8A Poseidon, which will bring three additional squadrons to the base.

Graduation June 8 at OHHS stadium By DEBRA VAUGHN Staff reporter
Graduation for Oak Harbor High School seniors is right around the corner and the public can attend events surrounding the celebration. Graduation is scheduled for 6 p.m., Monday, June 8 at the high school’s stadium. The gates open at 4:45 p.m. Families of graduates receive seven tickets for the best seats, but anyone can attend for free, said Principal Dwight Lundstrom. Seniors with family attending who need disabled seating should contact the counselors at the high school to arrange that in advance, he said. The event is taking place whatever the weather so dress warmly. Even if it’s sunny, prepare for chilly temperatures when the sun drops, Lundstrom said. The high school no longer holds the While the number of personnel in each squadron will decrease, the overall military population will increase from 7,200 to 7,900. The district is doing everything it can to get ready, said Oak Harbor Superintendent Lance Gibbon. The district has purchase orders ready for things such as supplies and curriculum materials. And they’re poised to hire teachers and other staff. They’ll be competing with other school districts who also may need to hire more teachers. One of the biggest challenges is classroom space. If state lawmakers opt to pay for full-day kindergarten, the district expects it will need five more classrooms.

ceremony in the gym because seating was limited. “We wanted everyone to be able to come,” he said. Other events include a district band festival at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 2, at the Oak Harbor High School gym. It’s free. Parents of Oak Harbor seniors can attend a traditional toss by the students of all those papers they slaved over after the school bell rings Thursday, June 4, at the high school student union building. Check in at the front office first. Seniors will receive awards and recognition at a ceremony set for 7 p.m. Friday, June 5, at the high school gym. Baccalaureate, a non-denominational service honoring graduates, is held at 3 p.m. Sunday, June 7, at the First Reformed Church, 250 SW 3rd Ave. Seniors are encouraged to wear their caps and gowns.
The district purchased two new double portable classrooms that will be placed at Broadview and Olympic View elementary schools. Crescent Harbor is being remodeled, turning part of an open area into a new room. Other schools are creating space by replacing their computer labs with mobile carts with portable computer tablets. Oak Harbor Elementary already has five full-day and two half-day kindergarten classes. The school board tossed around having more kindergarten classes located at the school. It has the most open classroom space of all the schools. The district sometimes hears people suggest that Clover Valley Elementary be re-opened, Gibbons said. The school is already at capacity with part-time
homeschoolers who enroll at some school district classes and other early childhood education programs. There’s another issue. Even if state lawmakers do decide to pay for all-day kindergarten, that money only goes toward basic salary for teachers and the district has to augment that salary. It also doesn’t pay for things like new classrooms. A new portable, which holds two classes, can cost as much as $180,000. Equipping a classroom with curriculum materials, desks and other supplies costs about $30,000. The district likely won’t get any money for buying new portables or supplies, although lawmakers may approve some money in other parts of the budget that could be used for this purpose.

Sunflower sea stars, shown above, used to be a common sight around Whidbey Island. The population is starting to rebound this spring after star wasting syndrome killed many.
REBOUND CONTINUED FROM A1 Called “densovirus,” the illness causes a deflated appearance followed by rapid deterioration, according to the University of California Santa Cruz, which has been recording the phenomena internationally. The symptoms, which were first reported in June 2013 in Olympic National Park, include the appearance of lesions on the sea star’s skin, followed by decay of tissue that leads to its body falling apart and eventually death. From information aggregated from all over the Pacific Northwest,
UCSC is also reporting that the tide has turned in some areas for the sea star. However, “sea stars with symptoms of wasting syndrome continue to be observed along the west coast of North America, and remain geographically patchy.” In Washington, UCSC has citizen scientists reporting that they are seeing only healthy sea stars and in a few areas, substantial numbers of juveniles. Island County Beachwatcher Charlie Seablom can attest that in areas monitored by the group since early May, they haven’t seen any signs of star wasting disease. “The signs are good,” Seablom said.

NEDICINE CONTINUED FROM A1 JONSON CLAIMS in his lawsuit to be licensed under the American Nedicine Licensing Board, the brainchild of Beverly Jackson, a holistic practitioner in Connecticut who has filed a similar lawsuit in that state. Jackson, who lists herself as the CEO of the American Nedicine Licensing Board, is suing the Connecticut Department of Public Health for $27 million using many of the same arguments as Jonson. In a telephone interview this week, Jackson explained that she worked for a couple of years to get the Doctor of Nedicine trademark approved in 2009 and used a Connecticut attorney for a recent renewal. The trademark for “Doctor of Nedicine” is registered under No. 3,765,779 with the United States Patent and Trademark Office for “alternative medical services related to the practice of functional diagnostics and natural medicine.” Jackson describes “nedicine” as a natural type of

medicine that treats problems with the “informational part of the body,” a process she likens to repairing a computer. “We are providing correct information to that chip so the computer can work properly again,” Jackson said.
authority,” Jonson claims in his suit. Hoagland declined to comment on the lawsuit, but said Thursday that the local investigation into Jonson and Jimenez-Beckius is ongoing and police are still “tracking down victims.”
JACKSON STARTED her organization as the Naturopathic National Council in 2004, but decided to veer away from naturopathic practices and redefine a new brand of treatment under the term “nedicine.” At the heart of Jonson and Jackson’s legal arguments is a belief that a federal trademark should outrank state law according to the Supremacy Clause in the Constitution, which states that federal law should be “the law of the land.” In addition to suing the state, the complaint also names the City of Oak Harbor, Police Detective Jim Hoagland and state Health Care Investigator Mitchell Anderson as defendants. “Mitchell Anderson and J. Hoagland exceeded their statutory powers or acted unconstitutionally by attempting to overthrow the federal
BECAUSE THE trademark carries a Class B designation, which covers the certification of services, Jackson said she believes it allows for the certification of people to provide those services. “It’s a very strong trademark,” Jackson said. Under the American Nedicine Licensing Board, Inc., Jackson said she has initiated an American School of Nedicine, which she plans to get nationally accredited, and a Board of Examiners. She also has outlined requirements for licensure that mirror those of the state. “Whatever states do to regulate, I did that,” Jackson said. DENNY MAHER, director of legal affairs for the Washington State Medical Association, said he’s baffled by the approach of Jackson and her organization through

a federal trademark. “It’s wild,” said Maher, who is licensed as both an attorney and a physician. “It really defies credibility.” “What you’ve got is someone who is operating under a self-appointed license,” Maher said. “What’s the purpose of a trademark? Sure they can trademark ‘Doctor of Nedicine,’ but as far as what that group does, I don’t see that as being protected.” WHILE NATIONAL standards exist to encourage conformity, Maher said it is up to each state to license its doctors and naturopaths. “There is no federal medical license,” Maher said. “I don’t understand. We’ve always believed in the local regulation of medicine.” The education and certifications required by naturopaths, as compared to conventional medical doctors, are very similar, according to Jane Guiltinan, dean of the School of Naturopathic Medicine at Bastyr University in Seattle. Bastyr University is one of only five accredited natural medicine schools in the country. In either case, the rigorous science-based training remains the same and state licensing is required, Guiltinan said. “I think it’s a little crosshatched to think that anyone without a license could come in and say that they have a right to practice,” she said. “That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense to me.” A SPOKESPERSON for

Whidbey Naturals was open a few months on State Highway 20 in Oak Harbor before its practitioners were arrested on suspicion of practicing medicine without a license. the American Medical Association declined to comment this week, deferring instead to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health, or NCCIH, at the National Institutes of Health. “At this time, the AMA has no position on the American Nedicine Licensing Board,” said R.J. Mills in an emailed statement. A phone message left with NCCIH media relations office was not returned by deadline. JONSON HAS a history of legal run-ins as outlined in police and news reports. Under a slightly different name, Hugh Clarence Johnson, he was charged with multiple felonies in 1995 in Sonoma County Superior Court, Calif., according to news reports published by the Press Democrat. Oak Harbor police confirmed earlier this year that this was Jonson. Jonson was charged in California with 47 felonies “including fraud, forgery
and possession of a firearm,” according to news reports. He was sentenced to four years in state prison in 1996 and ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution for insurance fraud and practicing medicine without a license, according to news reports. JONSON, WHO described himself as a retired attorney, is representing himself in the federal lawsuit. Jonson was quoted in a Whidbey News-Times article from 2004 as a “former lawyer” who spoke on behalf of a Cornet Bay group before the Island County Board of Commissioners. A search under all Jonson’s aliases with bar associations for both Washington state and California yielded no record of Jonson ever holding a license to practice law. Attorneys for the City of Oak Harbor and state Department of Health have each filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit, but a judge has yet to rule.
