State, feds confirm avian flu in Agnew

‘No Ordinary Joe’ Opens

Dept. of Agriculture to test nearby flocks

Les Jones and Melissa Soares, both of Sequim, check out a 42-foot vintage boat at the new “Boys in the Boat” exhibit at Sequim’s Museum & Arts Center on Jan. 16. The boat was built at George Pocock’s old shop at the University of Washington in the spring 1947. Sequim’s Joe Rantz and the U.S. Olympic team — also UW’s varsity eight — used a similar boat to win gold at the Olympic Games in Germany in 1936. See story, photos on page A-11.

In response to a confirmed case of avian influenza on Friday from a mixed flock of domestic poultry in Agnew, officials from both state and federal agencies with the Department of Agriculture are undergoing surveillance of the area and preparing to establish a quarantine zone

surrounding the property.

The strain of avian flu found, H5N2, isn’t harmful to humans, but the concern is its ability to spread to additional domestic flocks, WSDA spokesman Hector Castro said.

On Sunday a team from the USDA euthanized 118 chickens, ducks and geese at 92 Cosmos Lane where multiple birds belonging to Sherry and Gary Smith fell victim to the avian flu.

The infected flock in Clallam County is the third case of avian flu found within

Ballots out for school bond, SARC levy Sequim district seeks to pass $49.2M construction plan

Rec center leaders estimate reserves spent by end of 2016

Schools focus on priority projects

Vote may decide fate of recreation facility and pool

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

With ballots in the mail today, Jan. 21, Sequim School District officials and supporters have until Tuesday, Feb. 10, to anxiously await to know whether their recrafted construction bond will get voters’ approval.

Since April, district officials have been narrowing and re-prioritizing the initial construction bond proposal of $154 million to $49.2 million. The previous bond failed to get the required super majority of 60 percent to pass, but on a second try district officials hope to propose something the voters can and will support.

“This whole bond proposal is based on our ability to listen,” Sequim SHEA School District Superintendent Kelly Shea said.

“Hopefully we have heard from our community correctly and honestly.”

Bonds issued would be repaid over a 20-year period, costing the taxpayer 63 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Coupled with the education programs and operations levy of $1.60, the total local schools tax rate in 2016 would be $2.23 per $1,000 of assessed valuation.

“We’re in the bottom five percent of all the local school districts receiving taxpayers’ assistance,” Citizens for Sequim Schools chairman Jim Stoffer said.

Having a relatively low local schools tax rate, Sequim

School District’s 2015 tax rate is less than its neighboring cities including Port Angeles, Chimacum and Port Townsend, according

Sequim School District’s construction bond proposal

From page A-1 to table supplied by Sequim School District Business Manager Brian Lewis.

Re-prioritizing Following the failure of April’s bond proposal and in order to identify and help prioritize the school district’s needs, Shea set out on a “journey” to specifically reach out to individuals that opposed the bond.

The reasons for lack of support greatly varied, but through countless conversations Shea noticed common themes including lack of project prioritization, uncertainty of the district’s ability to manage the amount of funds and simply that $154 million was beyond the capacity of the community.

Keeping the reoccurring themes in mind, district officials determined their priorities as improving the district’s structural environment, safety and security, as well as creating space to accommodate current students.

“We do have to keep our eye down the road so if we do grow, we’ll be able to accommodate more kids and we always have to make sure that we have space available,” Shea said. “But, in this bond we’re not focused on the potential for growth, but the kids we have today.”

Room to learn

In response to the number of students and class size demands, district officials have continued to budget for more portable buildings that act as temporary classrooms.

The Sequim School District bought two portables last summer and are prepared to buy an additional two before the next school year. Together the portables create eight new classrooms – adding to the 17 portable classrooms the district already has.

More than half the district’s portables have been in

Sequim resident Dave Brasher, co-owner and co-founder of High Energy Metals, presents a lecture

Included projects The estimated total cost to complete the identified projects is $53.6 million, but district officials also plan to use $4.3 million state match grants to help with the construction of a new elementary school, four additional classrooms and a gym at Greywolf, six high school science classrooms and new

high school band and choir classrooms, update a district base kitchen and warehouse and maintenance facility and renovate space for Olympic Peninsula Academy.

Projects included in the previous bond, but trimmed from the district’s new proposal, will be shelved until later or some may never be revisited.

“There are other elements of the last bond proposal that we probably won’t pursue, but there are other elements that we’ll have to pursue,” Shea said. “We have to do something about our track because it’s becoming unusable; we have to do something about the tennis courts because they are unusable; we have to do something about our gymnasium because it doesn’t meet today’s building code standards.”

Shea will keep his attention on the projects cut from the previous bond proposal, but that still need to be addressed.

“Some of those things can be done through a construction bond in the future,” he said. “Some of those things we might be able to find different solutions for … a partnership with the city, county or private sector. We’re going to have to look at the things on the list and ask ourselves is there another way to accomplish these besides just putting them in a school construction bond.”

Support Given the roughly 21,000 registered voters within the Sequim School District, school staff created factsheets, maintained bond

place for more than 20 years, Shea said.

“The portables that we are going to purchase at the start of the next school year, we have budgeted $330,000,” Shea said. “We’ve been buying those out of our normal annual operating budget, so if we have $330,000 to buy these portables that means we don’t have that to spend on technology, new curriculum or to invest in our tennis courts.”

Additionally, when it comes to space constraints, school district officials are grappling with the McCleary Decision that mandates fullday kindergarten by 2016.

Accommodating full-day kindergarten will require up to six additional classrooms, Shea said. Also, the decision reduces grades K-3 class size to 17 students – requiring the district to supply an extra 14 classrooms.

With the Washington Class Size Reduction Measure (Initiative 1351) for grades K-12, district officials aren’t “only trying to build space to accommodate the kids we have today, but to put us in a position to adapt to whatever changes occur in the future,” Shea said.

information on its website, increased social media and used YouTube to elevate awareness and supply information to supplement Shea’s ongoing conversations. Still, Shea said, word-of-mouth seemed to be the most effective way to get a dialogue going.

“It’s affirmed how important it is to listen to people,” Shea said, reflecting on the bond process. “To know and respect the values of the community in which you serve is something that I knew, but this process has reaffirmed that.”

Leading the Citizens for Sequim Schools, Stoffer also has revamped the campaign’s approach and increased the use of social media and public presence via platforms such as KSQM. Falling back on his 31 years with the U.S. Coast Guard and thus his continual interaction with the public during that time, Stoffer said talking with and helping to educate people on the bond comes easily to him.

The construction bond has received support from a number of organizations and individuals, including, but not limited to, Olympic Medical Center, both state representatives Kevin Van De Wege and Steve Tharinger, Clallam Economic Development Council, Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe, City of Sequim Mayor Candace Pratt, Sequim City Manager Steve Burkett and County Commissioner Jim McEntire.

“I support this measure on the ballot,” McEntire said.

“It’s a responsible measure and something that I’ve always thought to be true is that a good school system is important for a good economy. I think it’s worthy of everybody’s consideration.”

McEntire commends the district’s board of directors and officials for “rolling up their sleeves” after the first bond failed and listening to the public to try to balance the needs with the amount the community will and can afford.

A Jan. 27 workshop aims to help landowners understand Clallam County’s approach to managing shorelines — including what to do about bluff erosion. Submitted photo

Erosion

From page A-1

Hot topics Included in the plan are guidelines and regulations specific to both aquaculture and buffers associated with construction and residences near bluffs – both topics questioned during the public forum.

According to Gray, the county has yet to receive a permit application for a 30acre geoduck farm proposed by officials with Taylor Shellfish Farms in Dunge-

ness Bay, but DCD Director Mary Ellen Winborn said the farm will require a conditional use permit.

“Commercial geoduck aquaculture may be permitted in all shoreline environment designations through a conditional use permit,” according to the draft SMP. Additionally, the updated SMP acknowledges the rate of bluff erosion and proposes updated buffers and regulations “reflective of Clallam County’s conditions,” Clancy said.

“The program is only applied to new activity and construction,” she told questioning forum attendees. “All other existing structures are grandfathered in.”

Because of the county’s “hazardous conditions of erosion affecting bluffs,” Clancy said the SMP includes additional buffers to help plan and protect people as well as the ecological function bluff erosion, specifically referred to as “feeder bluffs” do.

Before recommending a final SMP to the board of commissioners, the planning commission will host public hearings to receive ample community feedback on the draft.

“I would expect the process and adoption of the plan, at least on a local level, by late spring,” Gray said.

Following the local adoption of the updated Shoreline Master Program, officials with the Washington State Department of Ecology will have final approval and may return the program for additional work.

The Clallam County Planning Commission is scheduled to host a public hearing on the SMP at 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 4, at John Wayne Marina, 2577 West Sequim Bay Road. View the draft SMP www.clallam. net/LandUse/SMP_CurrentDraft.html.

To further explore how the updated SMP addresses concerns and issues specific to bluffs, county officials are prepared to present at the upcoming landowner workshop, Living on the Edge, hosted by Coastal Watershed institute.

The workshop is intended to provide information on the ongoing work being done by the institute and collaborators to understand and promote wise stewardship of the area’s nearshore.

staff wrapped up their series of regional public forums on the county’s draft SMP intended to both engage and educate the public Jan. 14, in Sequim.

About 80 citizens turned out to learn more about the updated program and how it may impact them.

Gray, along with Margaret Clancy with Environmental Science Associates, a multidisciplinary consulting firm hired to help collect data for the update, gave an overview of the 11-chapter program.

The SMP provides county officials with information and regulations needed to manage water bodies and adjoining shoreline in areas where people live, work and recreate, and “focuses on striking a balance between development and economic growth while preserving our unique shorelines and the ecological functions and services they provide,” Gray said.

What A Rush

“We’re really hoping to facilitate a dialogue with existing and prospective bluff landowners about how we can work together to create solutions to enhance public safety and protect the bluffs that are an integral part of our area,” Jamie Michel, nearshore biologist for Coastal Watershed Institute, said.

The county and the institute are working on “parallel issues” because the institute’s work and research can help inform county officials when updated regulatory programs, like the SMP, Michel said.

In addition to an update on the SMP, officials with the Washington Department of Natural Resources will present their findings on longterm bluff erosion, staff with the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge will talk about their upcoming anniversary celebration and Coastal Watershed Institute staff will present on the organization’s efforts related to the nearshore environment, including the development of a “realtor funding pool for distressed landowners” and protection grants.

SARC

SARC’s 2015 levy proposal Proposed: 12 cents per $1,000 of a home’s assessed valuation Cost: Homeowner with a house valued at $200,000 would pay about $2 a month or $24 a year while supporters say the median household assessed valuation of $217,000 in Sequim will pay $26.04 a year or $2.17 a month.

Margin: Must pass with 60 percent majority

From page A-1 must receive at least a 60 percent majority in the Sequim School District boundaries minus Jefferson County residents. The rate would be fixed for six years generating about $428,360 per year.

Center director Scott Deschenes said if the levy passes, there are three components.

The first would help replace infrastructure like the pool air handling unit valued at about $350,000. The second would be replacing and repairing equipment, which Deschenes said are a lot of little things like commercial air filters, and the third would be about $200,000 in cost recovery. Deschenes said in the first week of 2015, the center already paid $14,000 in emergency repairs for heat exchanges and repairs to the hot tub.

Other side Two former board of commissioners say maintenance issues have been prevalent and that a majority of current and former commissioners chose not to act before.

Bill Black, a commissioner from 1999-2007, said the board was “stagnant and would not recognize the problems that were going to occur.”

“When I was on the board in 2006, I gave them a presentation, where I thought the board was going,” he said.

“Later, I resigned out of extreme frustration a year before my term ended.”

Supporters of Citizens for SARC have posted signs throughout the community asking them to vote and “Save SARC.” Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

Black said his estimates for declining revenues came within less than 1-percent now “in the neighborhood of $400,000” of total reserves.

David McArthur, another former board commissioner, said he resigned shortly after Black.

“My feeling was they haven’t really done a good job of managing the money that they’ve got,” he said.

McArthur said they could have acted to replace many of these items years ago at a cheaper rate.

“They have no idea of the cost of money,” he said. “Well, everything goes up every year.

Why would you need to put everything off to a higher cost later on? They’ve done that for quite a lot of its history.”

Now, he feels the commissioners are asking for too much from residents.

When the center first opened, its costs were offset with a levy for 14 years until 2002 when voters turned down

two votes for a levy first at 12 cents and then 10 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation.

Deschenes said there are a few more things working against the center today. He said when it was first established in 1988, residents paid 15 cents per $1,000 of a home’s assessed valuation, which in today’s inflation is 31 cents.

The center also received timber revenues that don’t exist today and interest rates were much higher then.

SARC also is the only known facility of its kind without support from a parks and recreation district in the nation, staff say.

Susan Sorensen, former chairman of the center’s board and current Citizens for SARC chairman, said commissioners mostly voted to turn to reserves because they figured people would not support another attempt at a levy.

“Then the economy tanked and the building got older,” she said.

But Black said blaming the economy is “ridiculous.”

“The economy wasn’t in very good shape but any business does something,” he said.

mendations to enhance revenue. They developed several pages of ideas but they were shelved.

Deschenes said he began to adopt some of the proposals without knowing it such as implementing family nights and opening later.

Deschenes noted that following new efforts in the past 18 months, pass-holders increased from 2,400 to about 3,060. “Dramatically, there are a lot more families,” he said.

Pickering said they lowered some fees because there was a strong opinion that the center wasn’t serving the whole community.

“Some said raise fees (to offset costs) but then only the wealthy would be able to use the facility,” he said.

Deschenes said they saw an adverse effect after the past proposed levies failed where they raised rates and usership and maintenance went down.

He also estimates by the end of the levy campaign they will have about $2 million in overall deferred costs.

Like a business

SARC’s leadership says the center is among one of the best at recovering its costs at about 80 percent a year through 2013 whereas other pools on the peninsula are far less and the national average of similar facilities is about 65 percent.

“But that’s comparing it to people who aren’t doing their jobs either,” McArthur said.

“They are comparing it to other failures. They aren’t taking any steps to lower costs.

They wait until everything is broken and have to fix it.”

Pickering said SARC isn’t a business though.

“It’s an entity, its purpose is to serve the community. It’s to serve everyone,” he said.

“If we raise rates, we turn back to the thing we were justly accused of being a club for the rich and old. But now we have babies and toddlers and children. The millenials are coming in. A lot of guys in their 20s and 30s are coming in and we’re still supporting middle-aged folks. We have a responsibility to serve that community and not to make a profit and do it as soundly and as close to break even.”

Pickering said he looks at SARC like a form of insurance.

“You may not need it now, but people getting rehabilitation are continuing it at SARC,” he said.

“We’ve kept people moving and walking.”

Both Black and McArthur said the center should be more self-sufficient and run more like a business.

“They had to do something but they refused to do something,” Black said.

“They refuse to recognize SARC is a business … That’s what a normal person would On the poolside Going up do. You restructure. There are Centered on debates about In 2011, Black said he and things that could be done but SARC are whether or not four others formed an ad hoc they sit there and wring their keeping the pool open would committee to make recom- hands. Help us.” eliminate financial woes.

Black said the non-pool areas like the weight equipment room and gymnasium, are the cash flow.

Deschenes said when the pool closes, usership goes down about 60 percent, which also closes the steam room and saunas and hot tub.

“Without the pool, SARC is simply a gym,” Pickering said.

“The community would lose out. The school district would have no place for kids to swim.

Yes, (Port Angeles) has a pool but there’s not a lot of room there since they have so much going on already.”

SARC also houses low impact exercise classes, swim lessons, swim teams and more in the pool.

Black said he foresees that if the levy fails, the pool may be the first thing to close until there’s enough backlash so they’ll consider another levy amount or consider a Metropolitan taxing district.

McArthur, who is letting his membership expire, said he thinks SARC needs significant restructuring.

“I think it would be better off on a businessperson’s hands,” he said. “If they suggest selling or shuttering, there would be lots of buyers. It may not stay the same but you can’t stay the same and not be full of the same problems.”

Sorensen said there’s a value for people who do and don’t use SARC whether it’s for afterschool activities, rehabilitation or in the future.

“They have to think about impact on entire community,” she said. “I think we all have to think about the benefits, not just our own special interests.

That’s what makes Sequim a wonderful place to live. What’s in best interest of everyone, not just themselves.”

Tribe, city partner in wastewater plan Sequim Gazette staff

The Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe and the City of Sequim recently announced their partnership to connect the tribal government facilities and businesses in Blyn to the City of Sequim wastewater treatment plant.

The project has been under consideration by the tribe since 2005, when Clallam County commissioners first approved extension of sewer lines both east and west of the city.

In 2010, the City’s Wastewater and Reclamation facility was expanded to make such extensions possible and the city council expressed its goal of becoming a regional service provider and fostering partnerships within the city and the county.

Sequim City Manager Steve Burkett said, “We are very excited about this new opportunity to work in partnership with the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe and utilize the capacity of our wastewater treatment plant to provide service to the region.

This agreement will benefit members of the tribe, city residents, and have a positive impact on the environment.”

In 2011, the tribe undertook a long-term comprehensive study, its Utility Master Plan, to determine whether to replace tribal septic systems with an on-site wastewater facility or to connect to Sequim’s existing utility.

“In the short and long run,” said tribal COO Annette Nesse, “this plan is more cost-effective and better for the environment.

SLEEP CONSULTATIONS IN SEQUIM Michael McDonald, MD Board Certification: American Board of Sleep Medicine Special Interests: Sleep apnea, narcolepsy, insomnia, parasomnias

Connecting to the sewer system allows the tribe to move waste disposal away from the Sequim Bay ecosystem and its precious resources.”

Pumping wastewater away from Sequim Bay to a stateof-the-art facility furthers the tribe’s support of the Clean Water District and reduction of harmful nutrients to marine waters.

In 2006, the tribe completed the restoration of Jimmycomelately and Dean creeks in Blyn, to recreate the habitat that has since fostered recovery of the summer chum salmon population.

In addition, the tribe has worked tirelessly to restore the south Sequim Bay habitat to a productive marine environment for natural and farmed shellfish production.

All of these efforts, as well as the decision to connect to the Sequim wastewater facility, are part of the tribe’s comprehensive plan goal of preserving and protecting treaty rights. This tribal goal translates to the shared benefit of environmental protection for the entire Clallam County community.

The project – installation of approximately 6.5 miles of pipe — is estimated to cost

$8.3 million ($2.3 million less than the projected cost of building an on-site wastewater system), which will be paid for by the tribe.

The expansion extends outside the city limits, beyond the bounds of the Urban Growth Area onto tribal reservation lands. The Growth Management Act prohibits any connections to the system along the route. Other properties between Sequim and the tribal properties will not be allowed to join in.

Although the agreement is between the tribe and the City of Sequim, Clallam County is involved and has offered its support.

“This seems like a wellconsidered decision. In my opinion regionalization of Sequim’s wastewater facilities will have long-term benefits for all jurisdictions,” said Bob Martin, administrative director of Clallam County Public Works.

The next steps include convening internal tribal meetings with engineering firm Parametrix to pin down more details of the “Sequim Connection” and then meet with city staff to draft a formal agreement before construction begins.

Clarks pave way for local farmers Mobile processing unit opens door to opportunity

by ALANA LINDEROTH Sequim Gazette

Holly and Tom Clark, owners of Clark Farms, describe the equipment and steps involved when processing poultry using the mobile processing unit.

fresh heritage turkeys and 90 pounds worth of rabbits.

“We are the first to be licensed with the unit,” Holly Clark said. “We spent the time getting it ready and the state and county wanted to make sure we were up to code. They are used to licensing permanent structures so we were a bit of a ‘square peg in a round hole.’”

Prior to the mobile unit, like many local farmers on the Olympic and Kitsap peninsulas, the Clarks were limited to transporting their poultry far distances to a certified processing facility such as one in Tacoma or Salmon Creek.

“You can raise pristine animals, but it’s only going to be as good as your processor,” Tom Clark said.

Because of the high costs, time, labor and stress to

ists with fewer than 100 birds to process, the Clarks recommend using a kit that includes the necessary equipment such as a scalder, a picker/plucker and various sized cones and stand.

However, for larger farms like Clark Farms that produce meat for retail in stores, markets and restaurants, the mobile unit is both cost and time efficient.

“I truly believe that the mobile unit is a means to an end for local farmers,” Boyle said.

Boyle hopes the mobile unit will allow Western Washington farmers the flexibility to try raising and processing

MV Coho takes annual maintenance break

511208264

Setting the stage for other farmers within the greater Olympic Peninsula, owners of Clark Farms and fifthgeneration Sequim farmer Tom Clark and his wife, Holly, received their Washington State Department of Agriculture (WSDA) food processor license.

The Clarks are the first farmers spanning from Port Angeles to Gig Harbor that belong to the Western Washington Poultry Farmers Cooperative to upgrade their state license which allows them to process rabbits and annually up to 20,000 birds using their mobile processing unit.

The unit is one of three mobile poultry processing units in the state, Stuart Boyle, cooperative president, said, and was purchased in late 2013 for $19,500 by a group of individuals Boyle rallied together to buy the unique processing facility on wheels.

Although ranging in interests, the 26 individuals that pooled their funds together all shared a desire to provide local farmers with the ability to sell birds at farmers markets, grocery stores, frozen and specific cuts, Boyle said.

Without a WSDA processor license and certified processing facility, poultry farmers are restricted to selling fresh, whole birds directly to the end consumer from their farm within 48 hours of slaughter.

“It really was a grassroots thing and people put their money where their mouth is,” Boyle said.

Throughout the course of last year Boyle created a lease agreement between the growers (farmers) of the cooperative and those that purchased the unit, and collaborated with shared owners of the unit, such as the Clarks to learn how to use the unit, outfit it with state-mandated requirements and begin to write a user’s manual.

“It’s going to take a while to ramp up before getting birds to markets,” Boyle said. “But, the snowball is now rolling – we just need more snow.”

By last November, just in time for Thanksgiving, the mobile unit was ready and under their freshly acquired WSDA processor license, the Clarks processed 62 farm-

poultry for retail without having to invest thousands of dollars into permanent certified processing facility first.

Thus, once farmers have the ability to expand via the mobile unit and if the interest and need persist, they can work toward a more localized, permanent facility, Boyle explained.

“We hope that going through the process of being licensed with the state will lay the groundwork for the rest of our members to move forward,” Holly Clark, said.

Looking ahead, the Clarks plan to continue to utilize the mobile unit to process poultry and increase their focus on rabbits. Historically, the Clarks raised hundreds of organic chickens for consumption, but raising chickens wasn’t sustainable once labor, cost of feed and lack of processing options were taken into consideration. With the mobile unit, however, the Clarks might raise chickens again.

Having “broken the ice” and successfully received their WSDA food processors license and with a certified mobile processing facility readily available, the Clarks are eager for additional cooperative members and farmers to follow their lead and further develop the area’s local meat market and availability.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks for sharing road

Six months ago I took up bicycling. The promised benefits are all confirmed, but there is one unforeseen added to the list: experiencing the kindness of strangers.

It seems with each ride someone grants me a precious moment from their day with the courtesy of right-of-way when not required. Safe practices? Sure. But kindness of the heart cannot be mandated.

So with a wave of appreciation or nod of my head as I peddle past, I say more than just thank you for sharing the road. I thank you for the heartwarming gesture of sharing the journey.

‘A certified Sequimmer’ I had the pleasure of reading online Matthew Nash’s article on how we Sequimovians brand ourselves while visiting family in Baltimore for the holidays (“Branding Sequim: How do we name people from the city of sunshine?” Sequim Gazette, Dec. 24, 2014, page A-1). I was pleased to find a photo of myself included among the other Sequimians.

It reminded me of my freshman English course in 1958 at a college in New England. The teacher went around the room asking each student to tell where he (it was an all male college) was from. Many were from New York City, Boston, Philadelphia. Then he came to me. “Sequim,” I said. He frowned. “Where is that?” he asked. “It’s midway between Blyn and Pysht,” I answered. That got a chuckle from the New Yorkers, Philadelphians and Bostonians who were still wondering where Sequim is at.

Down in Fells Point here in Baltimore, there is a bar.

Hanging right over the bar is a large model sailing ship like the windjammers that used to ply the waters of this city’s inner harbor. Stuck to the hull of the model ship is a bumper sticker with the words: “WHERE IN HELL IS SEQUIM?” I discovered this amazing bumper sticker about 15 years ago and always take visitors from Sequim to see it.

I always tell the bartender, “See that bumper sticker there? I know where Sequim is. I grew up there. I’m a certified Sequimmer.”

Sequim’s 12s Seahawks announcer Steve Raible said it best: “Are you kidding me?” The Seahawks’ 28-22 win in the NFC Championship on Sunday was almost beyonds words and surely was on the minds and TV sets of ’Hawks fans across the Olympic Peninsula.

Last year, following Seattle’s wild ride to the Super Bowl, we Gazetteers organized an impromptu community photo at Centennial Place — that’s the concrete park on the northeast corner of Sequim’s main downtown intersection at Sequim Avenue and Washington Street. Locals came out in droves, proudly displaying their Seahawks blue and green. I mused with one of the event’s attendees, “We’ll make this an annual thing. See you next year.”

Sequim High School senior Katherine Landoni has been keeping busy the past few years. A student, mentor, tutor and athlete, she takes advanced courses at SHS, played varsity basketball as a sophomore, junior and senior.

She’s assistant manager of the Sequim Farmers Market on the weeke n d s dur i ng the spring and summer.

On weekdays throughout the su m me r s h e spends her time working at a local lavender farm and, with her passion for environmental issues, she’s involved in her school’s ecology and Be the Change clubs. She’s also been a member of the after school Science and Engineering Club at Sequim Middle School for the past seven years, supported by teacher Deb Beckett and many community members.

Landoni was one of a dozen talented young scientists from across the United States elected from nearly 1,300 applicants vying to win the “Discover a New Path – Explore Germany!” contest sponsored by the German government.

The youths, from Virginia and Tennessee to Texas, California and Landoni — Washington state’s lone representative — visited several research institutions in the fields of geoscience, bionics and aerospace from Nov. 28-Dec. 7.

Along with seeing some historical sites, students also visited Germany’s capital, Berlin, and experienced life in a German school in Braunschweig, part of an all-expense-paid trip courtesy of the Foreign Office of the Federal Republic of Germany (equivalent to the U.S. Department of State).

“I am deeply curious about the Earth,” Landoni says. “Science has long captivated me and it is deeply embedded into how I live and view the world. In college, the ability to combine physics, chemistry, biology, math and technology to solve real-world science topics with a strong element of problem solving, appeals to me. I plan to study environmental engineering, geosciences and management; my ultimate aspiration is to receive a Ph.D.” Landoni has been accepted to the Honors Colleges at Oregon State University and University of Oregon and the Honors Program at Western Washington University to pursue

her undergraduate degree.

“I’m still waiting to hear from a couple other colleges,” Landoni says. “I would like to pursue my Ph.D. at Cal-Berkeley, University of Washington or study abroad.”

In September, Landoni was selected to present her research, “Mitigating Seismic Liquefaction Using Magnetized Iron Nanoparticles in a Ferrofluid,” at the Washington State Academy of Sciences annual meeting to promote STEM research. That earned her a nomination by the Washington State Academy of Sciences as a National American Association for the Advancement of Science delegate, San Jose, Calif. She will be representing Washington state and presenting her research at the 2015 Annual AJAS Convention in February.

Here, Landoni talks about her experience in Germany: “The Goethe-Institut in Chicago contacted the Society for Science and the Public, a nonprofit organization dedicated to public engagement in scientific research and education, to select high school students that had won National Science Competitions to apply for the Germany for STEM Students experience. I received an invitation to apply because I have competed in several National STEM competitions and have won national awards for my scientific research.

The application included a short biography, a statement explaining why I would like to travel to Germany and what I expect from the experience, a STEM research project between 20-30 pages (I submitted my scientific research entitled, ‘Magnitude 9 Earthquakes as a Basis for Soil Liquefaction Analysis’) and letters of recommendation from teachers.

My current personal favorite field of scientific study from those listed above is geosciences.

I think environmental issues represent some of the most important challenges facing the 21st century. Few generations to date have had the amazing influence to impact our Earth on a worldwide scale. The past century has seen numerous advancements in technology and an improved quality of life.

These achievements also have given humans the power to permanently alter our planet and its fragile ecosystems. I believe it is important to improve our quality of life, but it is equally important not to compromise future generations by sacrificing the only natural environment we have.

However, from the trip, I thoroughly enjoyed visiting the laboratories at

Now, 13 years later, I reflect on the spirit of a mass of people gathered in the face of danger to strike down evil with their presence. I want to be there and be part of the movement. I want the movement to be armed with unity, tolerance of differences that do not matter and a single laserlike focus on truly crushing the evil of those who wantonly kill in the name of any god.

I think about the power that a coalition of the world would have against the still small group that terrorizes us. I’ve often wondered about the missed opportunity of the heinous 9/11 attacks.

The world seemed to stand with us in whatever we chose to do.

Instead of rallying at the moment of this horrendous event, we were told to go back to normal life, shop and fly again. We were asked to make no sacrifice whether in sending our children to war or paying more taxes to finance the war.

Our resilience was manifested not in rhetoric of values for freedom but rather in maintaining an economy and trusting our paternal leaders.

We do understand that we are not as small and homogeneous as France so it is less easy for us to

My favorite place to visit just for fun was Cologne because the town had old charm.

The good news is the district has proposed a bond that keeps our property taxes at only a few cents above what we paid in 2014.

Everyone agrees that education is an essential service to all communities and to the future of our children. We must look at the big picture to understand a quality educational system is one of the key factors in enhancing our economy.

We have a growing set of young families and must provide safe, secure and quality facilities for their kids’ education.

Quality school systems attract the best professionals, e.g. medical, legal, etc. to locate in our community.

Last but not least, they are integral to attracting new business and industry ventures to generate new jobs.

In conclusion, I and our tribe firmly endorse this bond proposal and urge our community to vote yes and invest in a stronger, better future for our youth and families.

This was my first time out of the country (not including Canada). This experience has solidified my feelings about studying abroad in college or even living outside of the country for portions of my life. I know that I will revisit Germany and travel to other European countries in my not-so-distant adult life.

The thing that surprised me most about the German culture was how the adults treated kids and young adults. The adults treated them as equals, yet the children still had respect for

However, the students were focused and worked hard in class. Their academic and personal lives were not highly integrated.”

From page A-8 gather but we had no one asking us to do so in any way.

In some ways, our response and subsequent actions as a country are as incomprehensible as the terrorist act of 9/11.

It is with this hindsight that I want us to be part of the world

coalition that truly rises against terror and evil. It remains to be seen how much the voice of these millions and countries represented on that Sunday are able to sustain and build the will to fight and win.

There is hope. The historic French shouts of “liberty, equality and brotherhood” were loud.

Husband and I have learned during our times in France that revolution against tyranny occurs when

needed and it is so needed now.

What will America do? Who will we be — the country that was formed with the help of the French or the country that voted to rename French fries American fries because the French did not support the war in Iraq?

A week passes between the time I submit my column and its publication, so we will have some answers.

Meanwhile, I will share two

responses we received before Sunday in answer to our message of sympathy.

“Thank you for your warm words, thank you very much … Sad yes.” and …

“Thank you so much for your cheering words. We are all very shocked by those terrible events and we are also gathered to say we won’(t) part with this violence. Your country had also this force to resist.

Sincerely yours, and thank(s) once more.”

Vote yes for SARC SARC is our public pool and recreation center, built in 1988 with your tax funds. For the past 13 years, no levies have been passed and SARC has had to rely only on user fees and reserve funds to pay the bills. Now, those reserve funds are nearly depleted.

We must pass this levy if SARC is to remain open beyond 2016.

Scott Deschenes, SARC’s new director, has expanded programs and improved services, adding programs for youths and families, and adding training for staff.

There is a wider variety of fitness and recreational facilities and classes for all ages. SARC provides swim lessons to children and youths and hosts the Sequim High School swim and dive teams for practices and meets.

SARC is for everyone. I

encourage you to visit SARC, if you have not done so, to learn more about what it has to offer.

Better yet, take advantage of its facilities to improve your own health and fitness or entertain your children or grandchildren. Join me in voting YES in the levy election on Feb. 10.

For SARC levy

Our votes are needed for the SARC levy on Feb. 10 to keep this community’s swimming pool and exercise gym financially healthy.

Fourteen years ago we had our home built in the Sequim a re a bec au se, among other attractive features, it had SARC. We learned that citizens 30 years ago created a junior taxing district to build this beautiful swimming and exercise gym structure for the community. We tried it out, liked the activities, and we’ve been members for 13 years.

The district is approxi-

Editor’s Corner From page A-8

Well, here we are.

So here’s an invite to see you at 2 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 24, at Centennial Place for a Sequim Seahawks rally, community photo and, if you want, some tailgating (BYO hot dogs).

We’ll do another community photo, hand out some raffle prizes from local merchants and basically have fun reveling in another Super Bowl berth.

Admission is fair: it’s free. When you consider a 30-second Super Bowl ad this year will cost about $4.5 million, our party is a steal.

We’re doing this a week early (well, eight days early) to put some photos in the Gazette the following week and give us some good karma heading into the big game.

It worked last year, right?

mately the boundaries of the Sequim School District and, because of those earlier residents, has the only yearround swimming facility in Eastern Clallam County.

The Sequim School District uses the pool for some of its programs. Without it, there would be no swim program for school-age youth.

SARC provides exercise activities for all ages. The community is blessed because, in addition to SARC, there is also a very vibrant Boys & Girls Club.

This club provides very necessary social and after school activities for the area’s youth and looks to SARC for youth who want swimming, weight training and cardiovascular exercises.

In our own daily lives we join with other seniors, families and individuals to use SARC to achieve and maintain or regain a healthy lifestyle.

It’s now our turn to provide for SARC’s future.

Tongue-in-cheese humor

Cheesed off. No gouda. Totally grilled.

That’s the reality for Bainbridge Island City Manager Doug Schulze when he jokingly banned cheese from Bainbridge’s city hall on Jan. 16. As noted in the Bainbridge Island Review, Schulze issued Executive Order 121212 on Wednesday and outlawed the consumption of cheese, and the possession of cheese, at city hall as islanders were getting ready for Sunday’s NFC Championship pitting the Seahawks against the Green Bay Packers.

The executive order noted that city hall would be awash with 12th Man fans dressed in the Seahawks colors of green and gray on Friday, and also ruled that the favorite food of “Cheeseheads,” as the fans of the Packers are known, would be unwelcome on the premises.

But Mike Spence, island resident

Support Sequim’s school bond I am going to vote for the Sequim School District bond issue for the following reasons: The school board has addressed all the negatives of the 2014 bond request. The property tax result will be within the range we are comfortable paying.

Our students deserve safe, secure and healthy environments that support the best that educators can offer.

Good schools entice industry and medical personnel to locate here. When businesses consider locating in Sequim, they ask about community support of school levies and bond issues.

Our L egislature will spend the next three years finding money to fund “basic education.” They do not include capital expenditures (for new schools) in that equation. It will be many years before they find the will and the money to fund both education and the facilities that house it.

and member of the Bainbridge Island School Board, sent the city some legal advice during the week that showed Schulze’s executive order had more holes in it than a slice of Baby Swiss, the Review noted.

“As a citizen of Bainbridge Island, and as a part owner of the Green Bay Packers and Ice Bowl I survivor, I question your authority to issue the above-mentioned Executive Order,” Spence wrote in an e-mail to Schulze.

Interesting … While we may not be able to ban all things New England in the next couple of weeks as the ’Hawks get ready to play the Patriots, we can do our part, right?

Can we all agree to not eat New England Clam Chowder, lobster and any patriots in the next 12 days?

Please join me. Vote YES on this bond issue. It is in our community’s best interest.

Candace Pratt Sequim (Pratt is City of Sequim mayor.)

Don’t let down SARC

swim team? SARC does this.

I consider the pool a lifesaver. We are lucky enough to live on the Olympic Peninsula where we are surrounded by water. It is an absolute necessity for all children and adults to learn to swim and be safe in and around the water. SARC does this.

For those of us who are elderly, the pool also becomes a therapy site or life enhancer. As an almost daily user of the pool, I see many members exercise in the water, who because of physical limitations, could never use a treadmill for exercise.

SARC does this.

This facility saves lives, mine included, so let’s not let SARC down when they need us!

I am writing this letter to encourage you to vote “yes” for Sequim Aquatic and Recreation Center (SARC) in the February election. SARC is a community recreation center that promotes health through fitness for people of all ages.

From page A-9 indoor opportunities. I found the perfect place for indoor activity in Sequim. In addition to offering a place to work out and relax, SARC (Sequim Aquatic Recreation Center) affords a place to gather and interact. It has become the “third place” for many families, including mine, in the SequimDungeness Valley.

Our home is usually our first place, our work or church is usually our second place and SARC has become our third place. I appreciate the fact that the old-fashioned values are still honored there. People recognize you and call you by name.

They greet you with a friendly smile and care if you have been missing for a while.

The staff is friendly, competent and accommodating. SARC serves a very important function in the lives of many of us. It is our “third place.”

Please vote YES in February so the whole community can continue to have a place to stay fit and stay connected.

David C. Neidhardt Jr. Sequim

School bond is critical

Please vote yes for the upcoming SARC levy, to avoid the closure of our outstanding, publicly owned swimming pool and recreation center. Large numbers of people, of all ages, are enjoying the benefits of regular exercise at SARC. Many children are learning to swim there each year. Invest in a healthy community.

Please vote yes in the February special election!

Scott Cameron Carlsborg

School upgrades are a smart investment

I have been asked several times recently how I feel about the school bond that is being proposed. With my utmost respect, I would ask everyone to do their due diligence: • Review the issues … the monies requested and the projects impacted; • Your costs; • Walk the schools. I suspect you will agree that this is not an elitist request. Our children will directly — and concretely — benefit.

• Talk to those who teach, to those who attend and to people who work in the schools. To parents.

I am a father of two children, one of which graduates this year, the other (please God) graduates in two years. I do not think that the bond will directly affect either child. So I think rather who is impacted … or who WILL be impacted.

I also try not to forget who will be making decisions for the Olympic Peninsula, Sequim and me (!) over the next few decades. These children … and our lives will be directly affected by this money.

This is an investment, nothing more. And it is one with remarkable dividends. Research, look and talk. I think you’ll agree that this bond is the smartest investment that you could possibly make.

Rob Dalm Port Angeles

This February Sequim voters have the opportunity to pass a bond for Sequim schools. I strongly urge taxpayers to vote YES on this bond.

The funding is critical to providing our children with a safe, clean and modern learning environment.

These tools will provide success for children who are entering a global economy. School construction also provides local jobs and improves the construction economy.

Finally the new tax rate to fund the bonds is not an increase for homeowners. Rather, because of expiring bonds, the new tax rate will actually be less than paid in previous years.

Please join me in supporting our children, our future and our Time to favor school schools; vote YES.

Providers such as her and her colleagues, work hard, long hours to serve the community and more providers are needed due to the increase in the need for medical care.

We live in a great place on the Olympic Peninsula. Let’s keep it great.

There is a common saying these days we can apply to this situation, “If not me (us) who, and if not now, when?” It is us and the time is now.

We need to pass the bond for the future of our children and our community, those with children and those without.

Vote yes to support the bond.

Will Payne Sequim (Payne is a former Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney.)

Vote yes for school bond

I support the Sequim School bond issue. Here are just three of the many good reasons to vote YES for Sequim Schools. #1: According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, 68 percent of state prison inmates did not complete high school (www.bjs.gov/ index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=814).

There is a direct correlation between education and anti-social behaviors and the public then has to support the costs of incarceration. #2: The Sequim School District listened to the voters and drastically reduced the scale of the improvements they need for our schools. #3: And finally, surgeons need operating rooms and technical equipment in order to do their work and provide the best service and results to their patients. Firefighters need a firehouse and proper equipment to carry out their public safety tasks just as police officers need police cars, jails and courts in order to carry out their roles in the criminal justice system.

As with these and really all endeavors, teachers need the proper tools and facilities in order to best serve and prepare their students.

Well-educated children today are the foundation for a successful personal life and for happy, safe communities tomorrow.

For everyone’s benefit, please join me in supporting the Sequim School bond!

Virginia and Conn O’Neil Sequim

The proposal to place a geoduck farm in the natural feeding grounds of the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge is absurd beyond belief. We already know that birds can become tangled in the nets and die and some will die of starvation from eating the plastic shards of broken pipes. This is to say nothing of the currents that will send debris to the 3 Crabs restoration site and the mouth of the Dungeness River where great expense and effort is under way to restore habitat for fish.

I would like to take issue though with Taylor Shellfish’s claims that they would provide 15-30 jobs here. According to their website, they employ 500 people and farm 11,000 acres of aquaculture. Even if none of those people were employed in office and lab work and they all worked on the farms, that amounts to one employee per 22 acres. They are stating that the proposed 30acre farm in Dungeness Bay will employ one person per one or two acres. How did they arrive at this number? Are these new jobs? Are these permanent, temporary, fulltime or part-time jobs? Are they going to use existing employees and rotate them from other locations?

We all want more jobs and promising them is a great rallying point for support, but these numbers need clarification.

Katherine Duff Sequim

SARC saves lives

Last summer I visited Montana and I was struck by the fact that in the newspaper three separate swimming deaths — two children and one adult — were reported that long weekend. I thought back to something I see every spring at the SARC pool: all the second-graders from Haller Elementary getting free swimming lessons.

I also checked and found that in 2013 there were 522 paid youth swimming lessons at SARC. Like Montana, we have very cold water in our lakes and a wild river. But because we’re also surrounded by the strait and bay we have even more possibilities of children drowning.

Yet, I don’t remember the last time I heard of a child drowning in our area. Is it because our kids have a chance to learn to swim? Is it because they swim at SARC instead of in the lakes and bay? I don’t know. If a death doesn’t happen, it’s hard to prove why not. But I do know that we have a wonderful Olympic-sized, community pool, the kids love it because it’s fun, and, with that play and with lessons, they learn to swim there.

I do hope that when we are voting on the SARC levy we’ll all take into consideration that learning to swim and being comfortable around water are crucial to the safety of our kids.

Charlotte Elkins Sequim

SARC’s reach is deep

Last May, the Clallam County Orcas Special Olympic swim team competed in the state championships held in Federal Way. Our oldest daughter Riley took the gold in the 25-meter freestyle race.

Like all athletes she was helped by many people to achieve her goal.

But most of all, had it not been for the existence of SARC, she would not have had the opportunity to reach beyond her physical confines and move with the freedom that water allows.

This letter is a long-overdue thank you note to the men and women who had the foresight to create this wonderful facility and a thank you note to a different group who currently keeps that resource running and available for all athletes no matter their shape, size or their abilities.

When people come into Sequim they can see what we collectively value.

In the heart of town is a building, built with public dollars, where the young and old, the master swimmer, the first-grader and the Special Olympian can gather in one place and practice their sport every day.

We must continue to be the visionaries our predecessors were. Let

Another vote for SARC

Eric and I have been working out at SARC since it opened. We appreciate being able to use the cardio machines, weight rooms and pool — all under one roof. The facility has been a great help in keeping us fit and healthy as we approach our seventies. Our grandchildren all enjoy the water and learned to swim at SARC. Most of them started swimming at 8 months.

Because they can swim, they are able to fish, boat and play in the water safely. The older ones use the cardio and weights rooms as well as the gym and racquetball courts.

SARC is wonderful facility for all ages, staffed by friendly, knowledgeable employees. It’s a tremendous benefit for our community. Please support SARC with your yes vote on the levy. And come in and check out the many and varied activities.

SARC is our community’s facility.

Joe Rantz gets hero’s welcome Nancy Hofmann, right, celebrates her 70th birthday with Joyce Willman, daughter of Joe Rantz, at the opening for the Sequim Museum and Arts’ “No Ordinary Joe: The local story behind Boys in the Boat” exhibit at the Museum & Arts Center in the Sequim-Dungeness Valley on Jan. 16.

No ordinary Joe, indeed.

The new “No Ordinary Joe: The local story behind the “Boys in the Boat” exhibit at the Sequim Museum & Arts Center debuted last week, featuring memoribilia, artifacts and other material about Olympic gold medalist Joe Rantz.

Material for the poster exhibit came from the Willman Family, the museum’s collections and archives providing information on Rantz’s time in Sequim as a young man.

The exhibit includes a 42-foot cedar racing shell made by fabled boat-builder George Pocock.

Rantz, who spent much of his youth in Sequim, went on to row with the University of Washington team, which took the gold at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin.

Author Daniel James Brown has highlighted Rantz’s contributions

in Brown’s bestseller, “Boys in the Boat.” While Brown was not on hand for the museum opening, Judy Willman — Rantz’s daughter and curator for much of Joe Rantz’s archives — and her husband Ray welcomed fans of Joe’s story and of the book at last week’s opening.

Contributors to the exhibit included Beverly Majors, Judy Stipe

and Katherine Vollenweider.

A grand opening party with refreshments and special guests will take place at the museum from 5 p.m. until 8 p.m. Feb. 6 during Sequim’s First Friday Art Walk.

The museum’s winter hours are from 11 a.m.-3 p.m., Wednesdays through Saturdays. Call 683-8110 or see www.MacSequim.org.

Classes for caregivers set “Powerful Tools for Caregivers,” a class that helps those who care for a loved one also take care of themselves, will start Jan. 27 at Trinity United Methodist Church, 100 S. Blake Ave. The class meets from 9-11:30 a.m. on six Tuesdays, ending March 3.

The only fee is $25 for the textbook.

Topics include how the caregiver

can reduce personal stress, solve problems, communicate effectively with other family members and make tough decisions. The class does not focus on hands-on care for the care receiver.

Pre-registration is required and may be done by contacting class leaders Judy Croonquist at 5821370 and Debby Smith at 797-1074.

FAITH NEWS Lutherans offer discussions Taize service scheduled Dungeness Valley Lutheran Church, 925 N. Sequim Ave., Sequim, hosts discussions on variety of topics. On Sundays at 9:40 a.m. through Feb. 15 a discussion titled “How Would You Decide?” led by Sherry Wright, looks at important legal issues affecting religious freedom. Call 681-0346 or visit www. dvelca.org. All discussion series are open to anyone interested.

From page A-1 domestic birds in the state following a similar quarantine conducted earlier in the year in Benton and Franklin counties.

However, the first case of avian flu within the state was detected in a wild duck in Whatcom County and again in a domesticated falcon, which had been fed wild duck.

Because the avian flu often is carried via wild ducks and spread through their feces, “there is definitely a concern that migratory pathways are a transportation mechanism,” Castro said.

The team of USDA officials is responding to the case in The resident flock of chickens at Agnew Grocery and Feed, a farm store located only a few miles from Agnew by conducting “en- the property where the H5N2 infected flock resided, were tested Monday by U.

All are welcome to the ecumenical Taize service at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, 525 N. Fifth Ave., starting at 7 p.m. Monday, Jan. 26. In a meditative candlelit atmosphere which includes singing simple repetitive songs, sit peacefully during the hour long service or join in the chorus. Taize will continue to be held the fourth Monday of each month.

Federal officials collecting samples wear the disposable suits to reduce the risk of possibly transporting the highly contagious flu to perhaps a healthy flock.

Once samples are taken from surrounding birds, the samples are sent to both a Washington State University diagnostic lab in Puyallup and to a national lab in Iowa, Castro said. WSU’s lab is able to identify the presence of avian influenza, whereas the lab in Iowa can identify the type of strain.

Typically, a 10-kilometer or about 6.2-mile radius quarantine around the location of the infected flock is established and can last from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, Castro said. The maximum amount of a time a quarantine can be in place with an emergency rule like this is 240 days.

The quarantine will halt all poultry, eggs and other poultry products from being

transported in or out of the quarantined zone.

In addition to the quarantine and voluntary testing, in an attempt to inform and educate the public and specifically bird owners, USDA officials likely will visit local feed and farm stores.

To help reduce the risk of contamination, Castro said Department of Agriculture officials are really pushing bird owners to carefully monitor their flocks and take precautionary measures, such as wearing a designated set of clothing when handling or interacting with their birds.

Both signs of respiratory discomfort and acting lethargic are symptoms to be aware of when monitoring birds, Castro said.

To report a sick or dead bird, call the WSDA Avian Health Program staff at 800606-3056.

Sequim is considered a small town, but it still has big traffic and anyone who’s tried to get from one end of town to the other via Washington Street during the middle of the day knows what we’re talking about.

Supermarket parking lots are another battle, as they usually are crowded with some who practice good parking lot etiquette and some who don’t – enough said.

Once inside there are typically dozens of fellow customers weaving around each other, many pushing wheeled carts through a space with no yield signs or traffic signals.

Admit it – it can be chaos.

When it’s time to check out, there may be 12 registers, but usually only a few are open, and therefore, there is almost always a line. Waiting in line can be OK, especially since it’s is a good time to consider last minute, impulse purchases from the large selection displayed within arm’s reach.

The self-check-out is always an option, but it can get tricky if you bring your own bag or if you’re purchasing alcohol, for both need to be approved by a human being.

Back through the parking lot as a pedestrian, out as a driver and not until the car is headed home, does the tension finally start to fade.

Options In stark contrast are our visits to Nash’s Farm Store. Granted, getting through the center of town on Sequim Avenue can be trying, but once past the school zone, it’s easy driving. Once past Medsker Road, it becomes downright beautiful and

We’ve considered ourselves rather fortunate to have had our own personal grocery store at which to shop.

Now, for the first time in years, we are venturing out into what, for us, has become unknown territory – “other” grocery stores.

It has been fun planning our shopping trips and re-exploring all our options. We live nearly 20 minutes from Dungeness, and although there are supermarkets closer by, we have committed to making the beautiful drive to Nash’s Farm Store for our regular grocery shopping trips.

This type of change in habit requires some forethought and it is understandable why so many opt for the convenience of one-stop shopping close to home. Nevertheless, when comparing the two experiences, it seems undeniable that one fuels not just the body, but the soul as well.

We have found that we must brace ourselves for even the occasional trip to the supermarket.

Poet

From page B-1 Elliott and his wife, Lillian, an Oklahoma gal, have been married for 66 years. He reports that they have moved 20 times, traveling through the West and up to Alaska.

They lived through the Dust Bowl years. “My younger brother and I nearly died from dust pneumonia,” Elliott says.

Elliott was an unknown poet until he showed up at the Fourth Friday Readings in Sequim where each poem captures a period in time — Elliott’s life experiences and his emotional response to life.

He has no problem capturing the audience’s attention.

One night he apologized for his poems rhyming as if it’s a bad thing. Elliott told the audience that he never knew there was any other kind of poetry than rhyming poetry.

To stay organized, Elliott keeps his poems in separate books.

“There’s a book about my mother, another about my father and one about me,” he said. “I never knew much about my grandmother and always wanted to know more about my family, so I decided to write poems to leave to my family.”

“I haven’t really figured out a way to write poetry on a regular basis,” he said. “I typically don’t edit much if at all. When I get the urge to write, it just kind of pours out.”

He’s published three poems in a chapbook to benefit the 18th Annual Reading for Hunger Relief in 2013. His advice to beginning poets is to “Read a lot of good poetry, pay attention to experiences, sights, sounds and smells that evoke an emotional response, capture it in words and don’t worry about rhyming or rules. Let it come from your heart and your gut.”

Olympic Theatre Arts set to open musical comedy Olympic Theatre Arts, Sequim, has announced the opening of its next production, “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change,” on Jan. 30.

This musical comedy is presented in the form of a series of vignettes connected by the central theme of love and relationships. The play’s tagline is “Everything you have ever secretly thought about dating, romance, marriage, lovers, husbands, wives and in-laws, but were afraid to admit.”

There are only four cast members in the show but each one plays 17 different characters.

Director Pat Owens said of the multiple roles, “They fall in love more times in two hours than most

people do in a lifetime!”

Leona Voss and Sheenieka Dolan play the female roles while James Willis and Joel Yelland the male roles.

Owens added, “Even though it sounds quite simple (only four actors and four musicians), this is the most complicated show I’ve ever directed in my 40-plus year career. I have been actively focused on this show since last March and have assembled an incredible team of artists and technicians behind the scenes who will make it all look simple.”

Musical director for the show is Valerie Lape, who will be joined on stage by pianist Steven Humphrey, violinist Leah Marsh and bassist Carl Honoré.

Since 1971, First Step has worked with thousands of families to help their children thrive through parent education, family support and child development programs.

For more information about First Step Family Support Center, contact Maggie or Amber at 457-8355.

Girls squad takes second place at Fife tournament

League leaders up next this week

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette After giving up an 18-point lead early last week to North Kitsap, the Lady Wolves (4-3 in league and 8-7 overall) didn’t have any plans to give more leeway on their home hard court.

Sequim followed the narrow 54-50 loss to the Vikings by overpowering Chimacum 42-28 on Jan. 14 and Bremerton 58-26 on Jan. 16.

The wins put the Wolves above .500 and helps keep them in third place in the Olympic League. “(They learned) never get comfortable,” head coach Evan Still said about his team following the loss.

Versus Bremerton, the Wolves were up big by the end of the first quarter with several players connecting for a 21-3 lead and continued to pile it on in the second against short-handed Knights going up 33-12 by the end of two.

Still said the girls worked on defense in between games.

“We’ve only taken two charges all year,” he said. “Last year, we averaged about one a game. I’ve noticed it a lot. We didn’t get any tonight but we caused a lot of travel calls.”

In the third quarter, Sequim didn’t let up finishing with a 43-17 lead and most starters sitting for the rest of the game.

Andrea Kienholtz (155) went 2-1 with two pins in 1:47 and 1:50.

Sophia Cornell took third at 110 pounds going 2-1 with a pin in 1:03 over Jennifer Gonzales of Fife and a 7-1 win over Caitlyn Julian of Elma.

Aylee Bennett won two matches for fourth place at 135 pounds and Kiera Phipps (130) won one match with a pin in 44 seconds over Amber Blair of Rogers.

Head-to-head Earlier in the week, Sequim traveled for a double dual meet to Port Angeles to face the Roughriders and Port Townsend Redhawks.

With just a few meets to go in the season, the combined Sequim/Port Angeles gymnastics squad posted the team’s best team point total for the season as they topped Kingston Jan. 16 in Poulsbo.

The Sequim/Port Angeles team took five of the top six places in vault and four of the top six places in the remaining four events to post 146.8 team points, exceeding the host Buccaneers’ total of 133.05 points.

Junior Julie Pineau of Sequim earned first in the vault with 8.5 points and took third in both bars (5.9),

Christian Goodrich earned personal bests in the 200 free (by 16 seconds) and 100 free (by three seconds), earning second place in the latter event.

Wendall Lorenzen bettered his times in the 200 free by 10 seconds and the 100 breaststroke by six seconds.

“We changed his stroke technique this last week in the breaststroke and it really paid off,” Sequim coach Linda Moats said.

Moats praised newcomer Andrew Hansted, who swam the 500 free for the first time with what the Sequim coach called a “very respectable time” of 7:05.

“His stroke is really smoothing out and I can see the power and efficiency he has,” Moats said. “His future in swimming is very bright.”

“In the second half we made some adjustments,” Glasser said. “It was kind of a role reversal. We were both playing 2-3 zones. We started to figure out their zone in the second half and they had trouble with ours.”

Barry netted his 27 on 11-of-23 from the field and 4-of-5 from the free throw line, while Jackson Oliver contributed a pair of 3-point bombs and Payton Glasser and Alex Rutherford had five points each.

“We did try to find him (Barry) down low,” Greg Glasser said. “There are so many ways he can score and it’s so hard to stop him because he’s so long. From 15 feet and in, he’s always finding ways to get to the basket.”

Paying the price

As a parent you have quite a bit of power. Most of it is because your child wants to have you like what she does.

However, it is important at times to exercise your power when your child repeatedly does something wrong or because it is a really big problem.

So how do you make the consequence fit the “crime.”

First, make it very clear to your child exactly what the rules are and what is expected of her. Look at her and use a firm voice. Have her repeat what the rule is so you know for sure she understands.

When she follows the rules or does what you have requested, make sure she knows that you are pleased.

Here are some general ideas to keep in mind as you try to help your child understand the consequences.

• Don’t come up with consequences when you are very angry with what has happened. Know ahead of time potential conse-

fairly young.

Extra work: This can be a help to you as well as a lesson for your older child. It really shows your child that you won’t let inappropriate behavior go unchecked.

The most important lesson in using consequences or paying the price for bad behavior is one parents need to learn. You need to make sure that whatever you tell your child that you are going to do, you do it. Don’t make threats. If you don’t follow through on what you have said you would, your child will learn to ignore what you say. Each time that lesson is taught, it makes the next consequence seem less likely to work.

Consequences need to be age-appropriate, fair, clear and completed.

All of these are critical for them to be effective.

Parents have a critical role to play in making sure a child pays for inappropriate behavior.

• Why do you want to join the royalty?

When I was 8 years old, my babysitter Julie (a princess) was on the court and I just thought she was queen of the world.

I thought it was the greatest thing and I looked up to her so much and I really want to be a role model for the kids of Sequim like I looked up to her.

Comical. I’m always looking for something to bring people a smile or laugh. It brings happiness to my heart to make other people smile.

• What’s one thing people might not know about you?

I think I read people better than most people think. I can tell when people are upset or if I should try and make them laugh.

• What’s one thing you’d like to change for the better in Sequim?

There are a lot of things I like about businesses in Sequim but they could benefit from an indoor sports recreational center because so many days the weather doesn’t cooperate or there isn’t a good place for kids to train or practice and not get in trouble.

• What’s the best advice you’ve been given?

My grandpa always told me to follow my dreams and you never know where they are going to take you. They could change but don’t ever let anything or anyone get in your way.

Working it off: When a child damages or loses her own possession, she experiences the natural consequence that she no longer has it. If it is someone else’s property, she should learn that it is important to replace what she is responsible for.

Stacy Campbell’s second-grade class is learning about the Civil Rights Movement.

They have been talking about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his famous “Dream” speech.

Their assignment was to write their “Dream” and dream for others.

I have a dream … that fellow students have good success and change something in the world to help people when they grow up. Help prevent garbage in the oceans and save animals’ lives. End world hunger and help kids in Africa and many other places so they won’t go hungry. My dream is to have good success when I grow up. I think people should prevent sicknesses and help kids and grownups with cancer, especially kids. Help prevent drugs and all of the bad things that people do to go to jail and prison. — Olivia Carlson

I have a dream … that someday there will be no sickness or allergies for anyone and that disease will not even exist. I want people to give all the baby animals enough food and a home so no species will go extinct and hopefully not lions. I want no more littering in oceans and lands and keep the world clean.

The movie chronicles the removal of dams on the Elwha River.

Here are some thoughts on the experience from students: Sharle Osborne’s fourth-graders were very glad that they got to go see the movie. They thought the female narrator who talked as if she were the voice of the river was great!

Iliana Rider especially liked the aerial photography.

Alyssa Avery liked that they were actual pictures, that is was not faked.

Davis Snow said he didn’t know there were dams on the Elwha.

Jarrod Blouin had never seen the Elwha River.

Alyssa Avery didn’t know that the sediment piled up behind the dam.

Dylan McKeown did not know there was an electrical plant on the river.

Claire D’Amico said she did not know that there used to be so many salmon in the Elwha.

Sam Hagen didn’t know there was an Elwha tribe along the river.

Braiden Kitchen did not know they used helicopters to move fish above the dams.

Carolyn Luengen’s third-grade class has been studying the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the change he inspired in our country with his words.

The students read the book, “Martin’s Big Words,” by Doreen Rappaport, and were encouraged to think of their own big words that could change our world.

“War. All it does is get a bunch of people killed just because of a single problem.”

This quote could change the world because during the Civil War many people died. The problem could have been solved by using peaceful protests and other stuff like that.

War is caused by a problem. From war, you get more problems. Shouldn’t we just end all wars? It just creates months or even years of hardship. Like Martin Luther King Jr.’s famous quote, “Hate cannot drive out hate.

Only love can do that.” Andrew Crigler “We should all have equal rights and peace.”

I say this because some people don’t have equal rights and peace and I want to put a stop to this. Martin Luther King Jr. said to be fair to everyone. I don’t want to live in a world where we are not fair to everyone.

Lili Mitchell

of people do this and it is not fair. It is mean, too. That is why I don’t like lying. Alden Smith “Imagine how the world would be if there were no wars.”

If there were no wars, people would happily live without being bombed or scared of someone taking over their country. People would live in peace. People would be happy and live happy lives. Everyone would live a better life knowing that they were safe. Anna Anderson

OLYMPIC PENINSULA ACADEMY Students in Timothy Wilkinson’s sixthgrade language arts/social studies class were invited to participate in a project to investigate the meaning of culture and explore their own cultural heritages. Each student brought 10 items to class that they felt represented their family’s culture. They were encouraged to include items that had been in their family for generations or that represented family beliefs and traditions that spanned generations.

In class, the collections were displayed on tables. Students guessed or deduced things about their classmates’ cultural heritages based on the items they had assembled.

This led to a discussion about what culture is, about multiculturalism and about the way the culture of the United States today reflects ideas, beliefs and traditions from cultures around the world.

SEQUIM HIGH SCHOOL On Jan. 8, the Be the Change Club had the opportunity to go to the Studium Generale presentation and workshop at Peninsula College featuring Erin Jones, an educator who recently was honored by The White House as an agent of change. Jones inspired the audience to think about Dr. Martin Luther King’s legacy beyond the constraints of racism, asking students to consider what inequities call for awareness and transformation in their own communities.

During the workshop, Jones encouraged students to redefine personal and community definitions of culture and contemplate equity and access in a contemporary frame.

“Encourage people to do the right thing.”

This would change the world by not yelling something out to someone if they’re doing the wrong thing. You can say, Please do your work, and please, can you stop messing around. It will also help to teach people how they want to be treated. It will also keep people from feeling bad. That’s what my big words are. What are your big words and how do they On Jan. 21-22 the Digi Tools Bypass Test change the world? Marli Gagner will be given from 3-4:30 p.m. in Room A-3.

The walk down the ramp and to the car is short and pleasant, and on the drive home we’re smiling; we’ve filled our pantry and fed our souls.

GUNNER is an easy going purebred Chocolate Dapple Mini Dachshund. He’s 9 years old and loves everyone including children. This little guy is a real clown. He gets along with other dogs and walks well on a leash. He has not experienced cats, but the owner feels he would be ok with them. He has been with Star for the past 6 years so it would be best if they were adopted together, however this is not a requirement and he would be fine on his own.
