Neah Bay Diving Fatality On Oct. 11, Clallam County Sheriff’s deputies responded to Neah Bay, on the Makah Indian Reservation, to conduct an investigation into the death of a 23-year-old Tacoma resident who was free dive spear fishing just outside of Neah Bay’s harbor when he went missing. During the ensuing investigation, deputies learned that the victim and two of his friends were snorkeling and free diving in waters west of the Neah Bay Harbor’s jetty in the Strait of Juan De Fuca. The divers were spear fishing about 100 yards from shore and using kayaks to dive from. At about 4:30 p.m. one of the victim’s fellow divers lost sight of him and a search ensued. One of the divers used a radio, from the scene, to call for help from the Neah Bay Coast Guard Station. The Coast Guard responded and began a search for the victim. The victim was soon found by one of his fellow divers; underwater and entangled

in a kelp bed in about 20 to 25 feet of water. The diver was able to cut the unresponsive victim free from the kelp and bring him to the ocean’s surface. The diver signaled a Coast Guard helicopter and was soon met by a Coast Guard rescue boat. The victim was transported by boat to the Neah Bay Coast Guard Station. The victim was later pronounced deceased at the Neah Bay Health Clinic. A coroner’s hold was placed on the body of the victim pending a cause of death determination by the Clallam County Prosecutor’s Office. Free diving is a form of underwater diving that relies on a diver’s ability to hold his or her breath until resurfacing, rather than the use of a breathing apparatus such as scuba gear. The name of the victim is being withheld pending confirmation on notification of the victim’s next-of-kin.

Winners received gift baskets donated by the Lions Club and Outfitters also donated a gift card. Organizer Chris Fletcher said, “I remember this being a big deal when I was a kid, we are hoping it continues to grow.” More photos of Hickory Shirt-Heritage Days are on pages 9, 10 and 12.

ECRWSS - BOXHOLDER

For Olympic Graphic Art’s owner Joyce Pagac, it was unsettling to find that her cash box was empty when she went to make change a week ago. Thinking that her business had been broken into, she called the Forks Police Department. FPD came and investigated and with no obvious signs of forced entry it was thought that a device had been used to open the door. Pagac reinforced all the locks and thought things were secure. A few days later she waited on several customers and then went about her work, which sometimes takes her to the back of her building where printing jobs are being done. Later, when she went to make change, she once again discovered her cash box was empty. It was concluded that someone had entered her business while she was there and emptied the cash drawer and more than likely this was the second time it had taken place. The whole thing has left her feeling a little uneasy about the boldness of the criminal. Pagac has since added a bell on the door and cameras are on the way. She said after so many years of not experiencing something like this it is a very sad situation. The police officer commented she was in a “bad neighborhood.” Pagac said, “Bad neighborhood? I am on main street!” Pagac wants other businesses to be aware that people are watching for you to not pay attention, looking for opportunities to take advantage. It also was reported by FPD’s Mike Rowley that there was a purse stolen from a customer at Forks Outfitters. Thanks to the many cameras Outfitters has installed, a person of interest was arrested soon after the incident. Both incidents serve to remind everyone to pay attention, don’t offer the opportunity to be a victim.

The band became a reality after Meyer and Munger met Lambert at a Relay For Life benefit during the summer of 2006. Six months later they got together to see if their many years of performing bluegrass separately could be parleyed into a sound that people might want to hear. Crescent Blue added Lenahan in 2009 and the band has

Temporary campground closure at Hoh Rain Forest

The Hoh Campground closed to overnight use at noon on Thursday, Oct. 8 and will remain closed through Saturday, Oct. 31. Several herds of Roosevelt elk reside in the Hoh Valley, with one frequenting the campground and visitor use areas. With the elk’s annual mating season or rut in process, male elk are focused and intent on finding, attracting and defending their mates. Bulls use a variety of ways to establish dominance and win mates, frequently charging and chasing each other and using their massive antlers for sparring. The herd currently using the campground area is accustomed to human presence and many of the animals have lost their natural fear of people, creating an increased risk to campers, particularly during the mating season. Visitors are required to stay at least 50 yards (half the length of a football field) from park wildlife at all times and are urged to stay in their vehicles if elk are in or around parking areas. The Hoh Rain Forest remains open for day use and several nature trails and a picnic area are available daily. The Hoh Rain Forest Visitor Center is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. FridaysSundays during the autumn months.

Marine toxins delay razor clam digs this fall Elevated levels of marine toxins have prompted state shellfish managers to postpone the start of razor clam digging on ocean beaches this fall. The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife will not schedule razor clam digs on any of the state’s ocean beaches until tests show the clams are safe to eat. Domoic acid levels on Washington beaches have dropped significantly since last spring, when the department was forced to curtail digging early. However, concentrations of domoic acid are still above the threshold

(20 parts per million) set by state public health officials. WDFW will continue to work with the Washington Department of Health to monitor regularly marine toxin levels in razor clams. Test results are posted on WDFW’s webpage at http://wdfw.wa.gov/fishing/ shellfish/razorclams/domoic_ levels.html. “We know diggers are anxious to get out onto the beaches, but public health is our primary concern,” said Dan Ayres, coastal shellfish manager for WDFW. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of

algae, can be harmful or even fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Cooking or freezing does not destroy domoic acid in shellfish. Since 1991, when the toxin was first detected on the Pacific coast, outbreaks of domoic acid have prompted the cancellation of three entire razor clam seasons in Washington — the last one in 2002-2003. Any new information about razor clam digging will be posted on WDFW’s razor clam webpage at http://wdfw.wa.gov/ fishing/shellfish/razorclams/ current.html.

Joseph “Allen” Bunker March 3, 1933 – October 4, 2015

Joseph Allen Bunker, 82, of Forks, Washington, passed away October 4, 2015. Allen Bunker was the son of Joseph and Ella (Fuller) Bunker of Forks, Washington. The Bunker children, Joanne Ella (Bunker) McReynolds, Joseph Allen Bunker (deceased), David Douglas Bunker, Lois Effie (Bunker) Woods and Stephen Miles Bunker, were all born in Centralia, Washington, growing as children in the little valley of Bunker Creek, a place of their greatest memories. Allen was a great timber faller, working throughout much of Alaska for over 20 years. He was known for his ability to fall piano spruce with minimum damage to the valuable wood. His last residences were in Port Angeles and Forks, where he could be close to his wonderful, care-taking sister Joanne, her husband Joe McReynolds and son Jeff McReynolds. Allen was a great old soul, always ready to help anyone. He helped many in AA to overcome addiction and taught many, in some of the more difficult times of their lives, to “let go and let God”. During one of his long stays in Alaska, “Good Morning America”, a long standing show on ABC TV, did a story on Allen Bunker and the difficulty timber fallers have in the wilds of Alaska. He will be dearly missed by family and friends. Memorial services will be held this upcoming Saturday, October 17, 2015, 2:00 P.M. at the Prince of Peace Lutheran Church, 250 N. Blackberry Ave., Forks, WA. We welcome all who knew and loved this great man.

During this meeting, North Olympic Library System West End library manager Theresa Tetreau read a proclamation to the board to honor the first Tiny Olympic Library kiosk to be located at a Clallam Transit System facility. The new Tiny Olympic Library will be inside the Forks Transit Center.

I don’t like to brag about it, but back in high school, I was quite the football star at FHS. I lettered all four years in the Homecoming powder puff game. OK, no one gets a letter for playing in that game, but if they did, I would have gotten one easily. I was the real deal with the mascara line thingies under my eyes and everything! I wasn’t really good at throwing or catching or tackling or blocking or intercepting or running, but I was the best darn footballhander-backer that any quarterback ever had. Just the fact that I know the technical term for that position speaks volumes. I handed the ball back every single time … and then jumped out of the way because I’m the cliché-est cliché girl. Seriously though, I loved playing in the powder puff game during Homecoming week. I had so many good memories that I was even tempted to keep the No. 38 jersey that I wore every year (thanks Billy). However, we were warned many times that stolen (I prefer the term “unreturned”) jerseys would result in diplomas being withheld. For this reason, there is absolutely not an “unreturned” No. 38 Spartan jersey in my hope chest … right now … next to my FHS diploma. Due to the great time that I had playing in that game, it makes me immensely sad that the high school girls don’t get to do it anymore. Like most things, it seems that the actions of a few ruined it for everyone. When I first realized it was not part of Homecoming week anymore, I did some official investigating on the subject; I asked my Facebook friends. The general consensus among my all-knowing friends during my investigation was that the game was cancelled a few years ago due to safety concerns. Apparently, some girls were hitting really hard and getting aggressive so the whole event was called off forever. In other words, the football game was banned because some of the players were playing football. Silly girls. It seems to me that kids these days get more and more things taken away. Merry-go-rounds, dunk tanks, dodge ball and now the powder puff have all been taken away since I was a kid. There even is talk of tag being eliminated for safety reasons. Whether or not these things are being justifiably taken away is a subject for a real writer who researches for real and who uses actual facts and statistics and stuff. As for me (the non-fact user), I’m just going to say that it doesn’t seem like being a kid is any fun anymore. I worry about the boring future for my kids. What’s next? Organizing recess into structured forced games and eliminating all free play? For questions or comments that will undoubtedly start with, “Actually, injuries are down since we stopped kids from having any fun at all,” please e-mail me at christyrasmussen@yahoo.com.

Commentary

Another Hickory Shirt Days … By Christi Baron Hickory Shirt-Heritage Days is sponsored by West End Business and Professional Association. It originally was started by Forks Thriftway in protest over the Lee Company’s decision to quit producing Logger’s pants and as a salute to timber workers. That first year a pair of riggin’ pants were burned in a protest ceremony. Eventually the event was turned over to WEBPA, a parade was added and taken away and the Fish and Brew was added 19 years ago. The idea behind the celebration was to have various groups and individuals have their own events during the week. This year Rainforest Council For the Arts, Forks Timber Museum, Forks Chamber and the Farwest Art League brought new life to the celebration. Also the opportunity to hold many of the events in the Rainforest Arts Center hopefully brought some life back to the downtown area. After holding the Fish and Brew at Sperry’s Barn and the Roundhouse, this year the RAC hosted and it was a blast! A big thank you to Fish and Brew’s house band Loose Gravel. They were a bit concerned as another newspaper reported there would only be root beer at this year’s event and they were happy to learn there was beer.

A tourist from Arizona read about the event in a little publication that the Forks Forum does called “Table Topics.” They are in local restaurants and several of the area’s motels. She told me at least three times what a great time she was having. Artist Jack Datisman also was on hand again this year with his faux beer label. He has created a label each year almost since the beginning of Fish and Brew. And as always the great smoked fish contestants made some outstanding creations. The judges for the fish entries were Su Kirk, her friend Cheryl Stewart, Amber Colliton, who called to ask questions about the event and got roped into judging, and Paul Pagac.

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.

Clallam Transit offered free fixed-route and dial-a-ride and paratransit services on Tuesday, Oct. 13, and will again on Saturday, Oct. 17 – to recognize its 35 years of providing public transportation to the people and connecting the communities of the North Olympic Peninsula. The free service is to thank riding passengers and to entice new riders to try the system’s services. The purpose of celebrating a “Try Transit” week is to showcase the vital role public transportation plays in the daily lives of people and to promote greater use of the local public transit service throughout the county. The Clallam Transit System started with urban service in Port Angeles and expanded quickly to reach all quadrants of the rural county. The public is encouraged to participate in the “Try Transit” week game through Oct. 17. Anyone can pick up a “Try Transit” game card from one of the system’s participating bus pass outlets or at other community locations to play for a chance to win a free monthly bus pass.

ONRC’s ‘Evening Talk’: The Northern Elephant Seal By Frank Hanson The Olympic Natural Resources Center, 1455 S. Forks Ave., Forks, hosts a talk at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 16, in the Hemlock Forest Room for a presentation by Rob Wamstad. He was a docent naturalist for 12 years at Año Nuevo State Park, an elephant seal colony near San Francisco, Calif.

He is experienced at leading groups into the colony during breeding season. He has over 1,000 hours observing the animals and their interactions. He also volunteered three years at Point Reyes National Seashore informing visitors about elephant seals and grey whales. He also was an education docent leading tours at a marine mammal hospital and has cared for harbor seal

pups. Here is a taste of what will be shared: “As we approach the colony over the sand dunes, all may appear calm and even sleepy. There is a certain tension in the air around the harems. Bulls are eyeing and tracking bulls in this Alpha male society. Most noticeable are six types of male behavior: Alpha, Beta, Stocker, Picket,

Juvenile, and Don’t Care/Past Caring …” So begins a guided walk into an elephant seal colony. The journey includes a discussion of the life cycles of these amazing animals, as well as their unusual characteristics and why they are important to current research. Since the late 1800s whalers had reduced their number to possibly less than a hundred animals at Guadalupe Island off the coast of Mexico. The northern elephant seal has rebounded to slowly building colonies northward, with

a recent colony reported on Vancouver Island. Seal visits have been reported in the area of the Salish Sea. “Evening Talks” at ONRC are supported by the Rosmond Forestry Education Fund, an endowment that honors the contributions of Fred Rosmond and his family to forestry, education, and the Forks Community. Refreshments will be served and a potluck of your favorite dessert is encouraged. For more information, contact Frank Hanson at 360374-4556 or fsh2@uw.edu.

Coast Works Third Step to boost local businesses

By Jane Hielman On Sept, 14, Pinchot University in downtown Seattle sent its representative Mike Skinner to Clallam Bay to collect contestants who made it through to the Pitch Clinic for the Washington Coast Works Small Business Competition which started around May this year. Simultaneously, Eric Delvin, also of the Pinchot University staff, arrived in Aberdeen to collect the southern group of

contestants. We were all driven to Seattle to enjoy the next series of development toward the Coast Works outcomes. After a social dinner we were housed and briefed on our next few days. Tuesday began early, off to UW for an interesting event. We observed 18 quarter finalists in the UW Foster School of Business compete in the Social Venture Partner’s Seattle Fast Pitch Competition.

The Life and Times of JoAnn Willard By Jane Hielman Clallam Bay says fare thee well to JoAnn Willard. JoAnn has lived here with us, some of us longer than others, for many years! JoAnn is going to live in a nursing home in Yelm. She describes coming to Clallam Bay when her son Kevin was in high school. She wanted him to be in the outdoor education class that Bill Riedel was then running at the school so she moved on in and started her first job as a nurse practitioner, starting the first clinic in Clallam Bay, where the liquor store was until recently. Kevin has since grown! He lives and works in the Olympia region. She describes her first impressions of Clallam Bay and Sekiu as being distressed by the constant clanging of the marine buoy as it dinged and dinged in the constant fog on the strait all night long. She tells it that she was disappointed by the sound, but in her last 20 years she has

lived in full view of the buoy and I suspect it became her companion. JoAnn is a very kind and loving lady. She has supported many folk, especially women during her years here in the Bay. A wonderful team of women have supported her living alone for the past three years and have loved her well. We don’t believe it will be the same without her here. Her move to Yelm has been hastened by the loss of two of her much loved dogs in the last few months. I wish JoAnn happiness and I know she will enjoy telling her many good stories to those of her new friends that she will be living with, her best friend Mary Lou and her son Kevin and her stepdaughter Cory. It’s always good to make your own choices, live with love JoBee! Now I will tell a couple of stories on JoAnn. If she ever heard of friend in distress or dying she would go down to the beach and throw a pebble in the water making a

prayer for that person. One day she gave me a piece of dark blue sea glass, I still have it. She looked at me and said, “This is so you will get a home.” It worked. But the best bit … on her 80th birthday, KC Winters, the then owner of the Winter Summer Inn, put on a birthday party for her. We all came; we all love JoAnn for one good reason or another. KC always put on a good party and her B&B was always welcoming and open hearted. We talked and ate and told stories, reviewing friendships and connections for several hours, being kind and courteous to the “old lady” the 80 year old! Then, JoAnn, feeling the party coming to a close, got up put on loud music and started to dance. She danced alone, spinning and twirling, laughing and dipping for a full 5 minutes. She put us all to shame; we figured if we are still doing this when we are 80 we will blame it on JoBee! She was keenly invited to all parties, she drove a red car, she had three dogs in her little

home and she travelled abroad as much as she possibly could and loved every minute of it. She collected original art and had a wall gallery of local artists. She loved young people and their company and was very proud to be chosen as Peninsula Woman for the Peninsula Daily News. Her greatest love was being a health care provider for this special community she

called home and knowing Doctor Kriebel and his family. She loves yellow and blue together in any combination and says when she comes back next life she will be a surgeon, because she loved to stitch people up as a result of accidents! JoAnn Willard, May you live long and happy, you are loved and appreciated.

Moe the Crow

By Christi Baron

I am not sure when or how it happen but at some point I became a bird lover. It may have been a parakeet or that first zebra finch but if I have to identify the exact moment, I think it was when I got ducks. And from that point on I became some sort of rehabilitation and old ducks home for abandoned, abused, injured and even lonely ducks in the West End. If you have ducks, people will seek you out and give you more ducks. Kathy and Ron Hjelmeseth found abandoned ducks at the hatchery. They were still quite young and probably would not have lived, so, yes, I took them. Jeff and Linda McGinley had two ducks that needed a home, yes, I took them. Nancy Tuttle’s daughter had raised an Indian Runner in the Seattle area but it needed a home in the country, yes, I took it. Kay at Sol Duc Clinic called me at work one day. They had an injured duck in their parking lot, pet carrier in hand

Appliances

I captured the duck, of course I took it. The Forks Police Department called there were two Muskovy ducks at the Elks Lodge, all right, I took them. A delivery man was getting a divorce and needed a home for a Canada goose and it was a cranky goose, sure, I took it. So, when Ivan and Diane Cowles, living on Shuwah Road, had an old lonely Khaki Campbell that was a little crippled from a dog mauling, how could I refuse? I took it. A few days after the arrival of the Khaki Campbell, while washing my car, a crow flew in and landed right next to me. This was strange — I slowly walked over to the crow and it jumped on my shoulder. This was no ordinary crow. The crow came every morning and would leave in the evening. I had a feeling he was leading a double life, but what and where? While talking with a friend at the grocery store I mentioned the amazing crow that was visiting my house. She told me that the Cowles had a pet crow, they were the same people
