Alan Huddleston, spokesman for the USDA, addresses about 30 concerned individuals, the majority bird owners, during a informational meeting regarding the recent avian influenza (H5N2) outbreak in Agnew.

Sequim Gazette photo by Alana Linderoth

From page A-1 individuals, the majority bird owners, during a informational meeting Monday.

On Jan. 20, WSDA officials received the needed approval for a 10-kilometer quarantine zone surrounding 92 Cosmos Lane where multiple birds belonging to Sherry and Gary Smith died from H5N2 and a total of 118 mixed poultry were euthanized by USDA officials to reduce the risk of the virus spreading.

“It is best to think of a quarantine as movement controls,” Huddleston said.

Although there are some exceptions with transporting eggs within a quarantine zone, all other poultry products and eggs cannot be transported in or out of the designated zone.

Moving ahead with the response effort, teams from

the USDA will continue to take samples from domestic flocks within the quarantine zone and inform the public on “biosecurity” precautions bird owners can do to help keep their birds safe.

“The main goal right now is to identify any contaminated flocks and depopulating them to stop the virus from spreading,” Huddleston said.

To lower the chance of cross contamination, Huddleston suggests using a designated set of clothing and footwear when interacting with certain birds or flocks and don’t allow other bird owners to come into contact with the flock.

“The best thing you can do is keep your poultry separate from wild birds,” Huddleston said.

Waterfowl seem to be the primary means of transportation of avian flu, Huddleston said, and ducks and geese with the virus typically don’t show clinical signs, which include decreased appetite, coughing, sneezing, closed eyes, excessive thirst, diarrhea and swollen wattles and combs.

“We’re seeing it in the birds of prey and it’s hitting them pretty hard,” Huddleston said. “We also have found the virus in songbirds.”

illness have been linked to certain strains of avian influenza, neither strain, H5N2 or H5N8, found within the United States have caused human illness, Huddleston said. If properly handled and cooked, poultry meat and eggs are safe to consume. However, both strains are considered highly pathogenic, lethal and very contagious among birds.

The first neighboring case of avian influenza was noted in December in British Columbia. Officials with USDA suspect the virus is coming through the “Asian flyways, down through Alaska and British Columbia and to the Northwest,” Huddleston said.

Retail outlets within the quarantine zone that sell eggs, including Dungeness Valley Creamery, Agnew Grocery and Feed and Sunny Farms Country Store, are allowed to sell eggs, but none produced by poultry within the quarantine zone.

To report sick domestic birds, call the USDA’s veterinary services at 866-5367593 or to report sick or dead wild birds, contact the Washington Department of Fish & Wildlife, at 800-606-8768.

Appeal time expires in Sequim lawsuit Similar collective bargaining case awaits hearing in Chelan

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

The current effort to open union negotiations in the City of Sequim and stop mandatory union membership seems over.

Sequim resident Susan Brautigam and backers with the Freedom Foundation, an Olympia think tank, had 30 days to appeal Judge Erik Rohrer’s December decision in Clallam County Superior Court to dismiss their suit to put two propositions on the ballot for Sequim voters.

Those were the “Collective Bargaining Transparency Act,” or Proposition 1, to open union collective bargaining labor negotiations to the public and Proposition 2, the “Collective Bargaining Protections Act,” to prohibit mandatory union entry for employment and prohibit work stoppages in Sequim with 48

union city positions.

Sequim City Attorney Craig Ritchie said he believes they wouldn’t want to pursue another losing effort.

“It wasn’t a good case,” he said. “You can see that from the opinion. It lost in all grounds.”

RITCHIE A judge in Shelton ruled the same as Rohrer in a similar lawsuit brought forward by a citizen and the Freedom Foundation. It was not appealed either.

The City of Blaine’s City Council rejected the propositions following a petition like the Sequim City Council but a citizen didn’t file a suit.

However, Chelan Superior Court hosts a hearing on Feb. 13 with four citizens, D. Edson Clark, Jerry Eisenhart, Charles Keaton and Al

District seeks nominations for Highly Capable students Sequim Gazette staff

The Sequim School District announces an open nomination process from through Feb. 12 for students currently in the second through 12th grades who may qualify for Highly Capable (HiCap) Program services.

Nomination forms are available at each school and online at the district website at www.sequim. k12.wa.us.

Nomination forms must be received by close of business Thursday, Feb. 12.

Because of time constraints, nominations received after Feb. 12 will not be considered.

HiCap students, also referred to as gifted students, perform or show potential to perform at remarkably high levels of accomplishment when compared to other students of the same age, experience or background.

Lorenz, suing the City of Chelan for not enacting the propositions either.

In Sequim’s case, Rohrer ruled the city was under its legal right to dismiss the propositions, which the Sequim city councilors voted to do in September. Rohrer denied Brautigam’s suit on Sept. 23 to place the propositions on the Nov. 4 general election ballot saying the deadline for items to go on the ballots passed. Rohrer later ruled the city council was acting under its own power given by the Legislature.

He concluded that the proposed ordinances “involve powers granted by the Legislature to the city council; contain provisions that are administrative in nature and are not the proper subject for initiatives; and contain provisions that conflict with existing state law.”

Ritchie advised the city councilors to deny the propositions because he found them unlawful, saying that only the state could put initiatives on ballots.

Sequim’s attorney helped reThese students may demonstrate exceptionally high intellectual ability, memory, creativity, curiosity and/or leadership ability.

The identification procedures used by the Sequim School District have been developed to conform to state guidelines and are consistent with those used by other Washington school districts.

Questions concerning HiCap services in the Sequim School District may be directed to Margaret Whitley, HiCap Program coordinator, at 582-3367 or mwhitley@sequim.k12.wa.us.

Students previously identified will continue to receive services.

scind another suit against the city in the case “City of Sequim v.

Malkasian,” where Paul Malkasian filed the initiative the Ratepayer’s Responsibility Act in 1996. It required the city to receive a vote of the people before issuing revenue bonds. The city was denied its efforts preventing it from going to the voters. In 2002, the city’s efforts were dismissed again until the Washington State Supreme Court ruled in 2006 to reverse the decision by the Court of Appeals and ruled in favor of the city.

For the proposed collective bargaining propositions, Port Angeles resident Susan Shotthafer and others gathered 800-plus signatures with 650-plus living within the Sequim city limits.

“Cities around the state give citizens the power of initiative, which is a false promise,” said Scott Roberts, Citizen Action Network director for the Freedom Foundation.

Roberts said case law like the Malkasian case “shades the spectrum.”

“If a city council gives false promise of initiative and they don’t like

it, they can block it,” Roberts said.

“These aren’t illegal ideas; just ideas blocked by the legal system.”

Roberts said citizens with petitions must receive signatures of 15 percent of registered voters in an area and city councilors can decide to enact it or send it to a vote.

He believes by going door-todoor, it weeds out a lot of the bad petitions.

“If there’s one thing I could do, I would reform initiative law where you need standard signatures to go on the ballot,” he said.

Ritchie said if all local efforts fail to reform collective bargaining, then groups will seek changes from the Legislature.

Currently Senate Bill 5329, “an act relating to restrictions on when representation under a public collective bargaining agreement may be challenged” is being discussed but Ritchie said it wouldn’t make changes like what was proposed in Sequim.

“The Clallam Conservation District always has been water focused,” Holtrop said, as Clallam Conservation District’s first employee in 1989. “It used to be all about water quality, but there has been a shift and there seems to be an equal focus on water quality and quantity.”

Holtrop said his district has found a “niche” collaborating with landowners on both improving and conserving water and speculates to continue its focus on water throughout 2015.

From page A-1

Prior to Jan. 14, it had been nine years since the state conservation commission met in Clallam County, Joe Holtrop, Clallam Conservation District manager, said.

“It’s an opportunity to showcase some of the things we’re doing and for some people it was their first time to our area,” he said.

The first of the two-day meeting was spent touring a variety of projects the county’s conservation district has either led, been involved with or is pursuing.

Tour stops included the LID (low impact development) site near the Albert Haller Playfields, Dungeness Bay to discuss ongoing water quality clean-up efforts – highlighting district officials’ recent role in drafting a Pollution Identification and Correction (PIC) Plan — and concluding at the Elwha River to witness the results of the Glines Canyon Dam removal.

extent of the decision, bank officials wanted as many of the 25,000 account-holders to vote as possible and thus extended the deadline, First Federal president and CEO Larry Hueth said.

Because of the interest, First Northwest Bancorp, the proposed holding company of First Federal, expects available stock will go only to Tier 1 depositors, those with First Federal accounts as of March 31, 2011.

Given the institution’s local start in Port Angeles, many of the Tier 1 depositors are longterm bank customers who live in Clallam and Jefferson counties, according to an earlier report by the Peninsula Daily News.

Within the past nine decades, however, the bank has

From page A-1 By early January, the maximum amount of share subscriptions the bank could offer had been sold – 12,167,000 shares of stock with a minimum order of stock of 25 shares for $250 and limited to 20,000 shares per person.

However, until the votes are accounted for and the conversion is passed, the $121 million paid toward stock is being held in escrow, according to an earlier report by Peninsula Daily News. Those eligible to vote on the conversion include First Federal depositors and borrowers.

After not receiving a “significant number” of votes from depositors and given the

Additionally, officials with First Federal also seek to pass the funding of a new community foundation, a 501(c) (3) nonprofit that would give money to charities and other local community groups.

The final vote is to be announced at the members meeting at 10 a.m., today, Wednesday, Jan. 28, at the Port Angeles Red Lion Hotel, 221 N. Lincoln St. Despite multiple phone calls, officials with First Federal were unavailable for comment, though Hueth said he couldn’t address any questions associated to the conversion while the issue is to open to votes.

ment, the aquifer recharge projects are intended to “capture early summer snowmelt and infiltrate it into the shallow aquifer to augment late summer low stream flows,” according the district’s summary on aquifer recharge.

Additionally, the preliminary planning is under way for a possible 1,500 acre-foot reservoir on River Road managed by officials with the Department of Nature Resources. If viable, the reservoir could be used for future water storage and supply water for late summer irrigation and facilitate better stormwater management.

“I have not yet met with DNR to discuss this project, they have taken quite a while to respond to our inquiry,” Amanda Cronin, Washington Water Trust program manager, said. “However, DNR has indicated that they are considering the project internally and will let us know what the options are soon.”

When Washington Water Trust and Department of Ecology officials first mentioned the possible reservoir site in October during a monthly Dungeness River Management Team meeting, the cost associated with the reservoir was estimated at $30 million.

“I would say the reservoir is a long way from reality yet,” Holtrop said.

Because the Dungeness Valley receives 15-20 inches of annual precipitation, Clallam Conservation District officials continue to build on their effort to improve irrigation efficiencies, helping to ensure profitable agriculture.

Working with staff from the Washington Water Trust that manage the Dungeness Water Exchange, district officials are involved with designing and implementing aquifer recharge projects and Holtrop’s hopeful to begin implementation next month.

The exchange or “water bank” was developed in response to the Department of Ecology’s Dungeness Water Rule implemented in 2013 and limits water use within Reach Alana Linderoth at the watershed.

Pursuing ways to wellness Via Vita focuses on enhancing the mind/body connection

Looking like the picture of health themselves, the new owners of Via Vita, Kat Parks and Ryan Iskenderian, will offer yoga classes and chiropractic care, respectively, beginning Feb. 2.

See website for yoga classes schedule. dysfunction — pain — in any system of the body experience, it all arises from an imbalance within the body.

What I’m able to do is localize exactly which system of the body is the ultimate cause of this imbalance throughout the rest of the system. It’s a very holistic approach.”

Iskenderian noted that to address biochemical or nutritional deficiencies, he recommends supplements that are geared to what a person’s individual systems require and helps clients release detrimental energetic charges by identifying specific emotions and associated patterns throughout the body.

“The thing we enjoy most is when we look at the body’s structural aspects (traditional chiropractic care).

However, oftentimes our structure — posture, daily activities and movements — is ultimately dictated by our thoughts, emotions, nutrition and other lifestyle factors,” Iskenderian said.

“When we’re able to truly impact the system as a whole, we can localize exactly where in the body we need to focus, what we need to do to help and in what order works best for that individual.”

A yen for yoga Parks has been a certified yoga instructor for the past 10 years and yoga classes, from beginning to advanced, will be a predominating therapy at Via Vita.

“I will teach eight yoga classes a week and also Reiki,

an ancient healing art. I think what we have here is very different as far as yoga. I’ll offer classes at times for busy professionals as well as for anyone who wants to get into shape throughout the day,” Parks said.

She’ll also give private yoga lessons, small group sessions, Yoga 101 for novices and partner yoga for couples.

“Through different poses participants gain strength and there’s also a huge philosophical part of yoga — being a good person, doing no harm, being a generous human being — all of that is part of yoga,” Parks said.

“I’ve trained in Vinyasa flow yoga which is linking different poses together in harmony and breath. I also do heat flow, slow flow and restorative yoga, so there’s something for everyone. All my classes are open to all levels and every body — you can be any body type in yoga.”

Focusing on families “One thing we love the most is working with entire families because it can really influence the communication between one another and enhance each individual’s true potential,” Iskenderian said. “When one family member begins to feel better, that leads to a cascade effect where we start to see the entire family functioning exactly as they were designed.”

Iskenderian also will work with couples before, during and after pregnancy “to ensure that the birthing

process happens as easily and efficiently as it can” and with children from birth to age 7 during their most crucial time “in terms of development, sensory perception and cognitive expansion.”

Iskenderian stressed, “With chiropractic care for kids, it’s very safe, gentle and specifically done. I enjoy being able to see kids develop, explore and be nurtured in a way that allows them to optimally interact with the environment and the people that surround them. I’ve worked on kids as young as 1 week old and adults as young as 93.

“Especially for infants, the two primary areas we look at are the upper cervical and area and the sacral area and in doing so, we’re able to ensure proper nerve flow and transmission so that they can develop exactly as they need to. It’s not a ‘sick’ baby treatment — that’s the wellness approach that we take.

We are proactive in terms of a holistic wellness approach rather than being reactive when symptoms are present.”

Via Vita will not file insurance but will provide a “superbill” for each patient to file. Many companies do reimburse for chiropractic services.

“We want to give people tools to truly enhance their own lives and make it so they choose to come in to see us,” Iskenderian concluded.

Articulate and passionate about their new wellness and chiropractic center, engaged couple Kat Parks and Ryan Iskenderian, both 27, welcome the public to the opening day of Via Vita on Monday, Feb. 2, at 128 W. Bell St., Sequim.

Parks, a 2006 Sequim High School graduate, and Iskenderian, a native Californian, met in college and pursued courses of study in the healing arts — both earned psychology degrees and he further advanced his education with a certification in applied kinesiology in 2011 and a doctor of chiropractic degree in 2013.

“I grew up in California but I wanted a change. I wanted this type of environment,” Iskenderian said, with Parks quipping, “You can’t get a small-town feel in Orange County.”

Via Vita means “the way of life” and that’s more than just a catchy name to the pair.

“It’s not one lifestyle choice but all your choices combined that make up your lifestyle and affect your health,” said Iskenderian. “There’s no time like the present to take your own health and your family’s health and make them your No. 1 priority. There always are ways that you can better your life. We’d like everyone to know we’re here to help.”

Regarding numerous other wellness centers in Sequim, Parks said, “We really believe we are really different from anyone else here.”

Iskenderian said what inspires him is helping people to function at their most optimal level.

“I am a chiropractor and an applied kinesiologist, (the latter) which entails utilizing manual muscle testing to access each system of the body.

That allows me to access the structural systems, emotional systems and biochemical systems of the body,” Iskenderian explained.

“Each organ, gland, muscle and meridian — every system has different patterns throughout the body and I can easily identify specifically where this pattern is emerging from. When we talk about

LETTERS To submit a letter TO THE EDITOR 147 W. Washington St., Sequim, WA 98382 Make commitment to future I am writing this letter in support of the upcoming bond election for Sequim schools.

Both my wife and I are new to Sequim. We selected this locale for probably the same reasons that you did. A great community does not just happen! It takes work and commitment from a concerned citizenry to address the issues in the 21st century. Sequim is no different. If we are to continue to enjoy the benefits of these prior efforts, we too must make a similar commitment to the future.

Schools are a prime ingredient, if not the prime ingredient, for a bountiful and healthy community. I was on the county economic planning committee for 10 years in California and I saw how very important a quality school system was to attracting all facets of a strong community. To ignore the schools is to admit that this community is no longer interested in its vitality.

To understand the issues, take the time to attend a meeting or meet with a school official to get a factual story, not some hearsay by a neighbor. I did and that is why I am a supporter. My wife and I paid for my two sons’ schooling (including college), but that will not or should it stop me from supporting this integral part of the Sequim community.

As we hear so often in these difficult times “Freedom is not Free.” The price of a strong vibrant community is a strong and excellent school system.

Without SARC, a deep hole SARC is a lively, publicly owned community pool and fitness center that now needs our support with a modest levy (about $30 a year for a $277,000 home). Even with a 28-percent increase in passholders in the past one and a half years, the whole facility will have to totally close if the coming levy doesn’t pass because of the need for funds to fix and replace its aging infrastructure. Closing SARC would leave a deep hole in our community.

SARC provides our whole area: • A place for the high school swim teams to practice and hold meets • A place for children and adults to learn to swim • A place for family after school and weekend water fun and relaxation • A place for keeping healthy via racket ball, pickle ball, basketball, aqua aerobics, fitness machines and classes like zumba, yoga and body sculpting • A place for gentle water, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room recuperation from injuries and disabilities • A place for preventative care as we age, via lap swimming, aqua aerobics and other sports • A place for training lifeguards and provides employment for many of our youth • A place for community meetings and Special Olympics events Think about all the services SARC provides our community and then please VOTE FOR SARC! It would be a shame to have it close! SARC is one reason people want to move here.

Excellent schools key to community

A note to my friends and neighbors in Sequim — I am writing to voice my support for the proposed bond for the Sequim School District, both as a Sequim citizen and school district parent.

It’s easy to recognize that many of the district facilities reflect overdue upgrades, and sadly, the open hallway concept of Haller Elementary is not a luxury that our community can enjoy in light of safety concerns for our children.

Along with the replacement of deteriorating portable classrooms, I consider this a critical priority.

Additional facility improvements included in the proposed bond will enhance the learning environment for all students and improve efficiencies throughout the district. The quality of our local schools and learning opportunities are a key factor when attracting businesses, individuals and their families to the area. Like you, I deliberately live in Sequim because it’s where I want to raise my family and the enhanced quality of life that comes with these improved facilities is something we can all enjoy. I’d encourage you to look further

Some is better than none I am writing this in support of the proposed school construction bond although I am conflicted as I feel it is inadequate to meet the needs of our students.

As of this summer, my daughter will no longer be a student in the Sequim School District. She first attended school in Lima, Ohio, a blue collar and farming community, and then in Litchfield Park, Ariz., a far west suburb of Phoenix prior to our move to Sequim. One of our major concerns was the quality of the school system and our concerns were justified.

Sequim presented to me my first opportunity to see classrooms in trailers, choir and music buildings that are inaccessible, a campus open to the elements and whomsoever should decide to stroll across it during the school day, inadequate infrastructure, a football field that is in such poor shape that no playoff games can be played here and a gym that is in desperate need of updating and repairs.

I am tired of hearing people tell me it costs too much to invest in our schools at a level that would at least bring them up to mediocrity. I’m not young. I don’t want to hear anyone saying it’s all about reading, writing and arithmetic. It was about more than that when I graduated from high school about a half century ago. I had the opportunity to attend public school classes in wellmaintained safe buildings and had a plethora of extra-curricular activities from which to choose.

Basic academics are vital, but education should be much more than that.

My daughter has had excellent teachers at both the middle school and high school. I salute them for continuing to provide outstanding quality instruction in such a poor physical setting and with lack of community support.

I will vote for this measure as there is no better option. However, we should not fool ourselves that it addresses all of the critical needs of the school system that were so clearly elucidated last year. We are providing palliative, not curative care.

SARC vital to community As part time residents of Sequim, we are deeply concerned about the fate of SARC. While we cannot vote in February, we will be affected by the outcome. If the levy passes, our property tax will increase slightly; if it fails, SARC probably will close. Should SARC close, we may have to leave Sequim because, like many older patrons, we need to swim for health reasons.

SARC is not just important to its patrons, it is vital to the whole community. We frequently stay in town to eat or shop after we swim. Should SARC close, many businesses, particularly restaurants, will be impacted. SARC, like the libraries, schools, police, fire, etc., contributes to the property values of the town.

It is possible that if the levy fails, the county or city will take responsibility for funding and operating SARC. This is certainly preferable to SARC closing but leads to several major questions.

First, who will take over? SARC currently has a dedicated board of directors. Can/will the local government retain them?

Second, How will SARC be funded? The cost of SARC’s operations ultimately will be borne by the taxpayers. It will just become one more line item in a budget. Either taxes will be raised or other services will be cut to make up for the costs.

Does anyone really believe that the county/city government can run SARC as efficiently and effectively as the current leadership? There will be one big difference: The levy is for six years; a tax increase will be forever.

We love Sequim and SARC is one major reason why. Please don’t let SARC die.

Support the levy.

Voting yes is a privilege!

I will vote “Yes” for the Feb. 10 Sequim schools bond issue and I encourage those who vote to please do the same. Why? Because you live in Sequim School District and these are your schools.

I say, “your schools” because not only do the 2,800-plus children in our community attend classes 30 hours per week within their walls, but 201 community and civic groups also use these same facilities after school, evenings and weekends throughout the year. This breaks down to 18 school-affiliated, 72 youth activity/civic; 85 nonprofit community organizations; 14 for-profit and 12 after-school sports groups.

We all attend meetings, watch or participate in sporting events, listen to concerts, attend plays or partake in other school and community events within these school facilities.

I have lived, worked, raised a family, volunteered and paid taxes in our community for 40 years. Now

See LETTERS, A-9 myself? She was too hot inside, so we laid blankets on the deck and we cuddled and watched winter birds at the feeder and streamers of geese flying overhead. I slowly stroked her tired body, letting my fingers linger as I twirled the long silky hair that covered her neck, blending black and white, admiring her beauty in just being, and trying to memorize her expressions and slow, even breaths and deep sighs of contentment. In those moments, remembering dozens of camping trips, walks and glimmers of the thousands of days she spent in our family, much of my life flashed before me, intertwined with hers. She napped peacefully next to me until a seizure overpowered her and I knew it was time to let her go.

Until we meet again, I promised her.

From page A-8 retired and on a fixed income, I still believe that supporting our schools and the children of our community is not only a responsibility, but a privilege.

We all have a vested interest in keeping our school buildings safe and secure, maintained, attractive and competitive for vocational training and academic learning.

This is the time to support the bond issue. Do it before interest rates and building costs increase. The bright yellow and red signs throughout our community remind us of our role as a voter …

Plea se suppor t your Sequim Schools!

Annette Hanson Sequim

Invest in children, community On Feb. 10, you will have an opportunity to do something great for our community.

E ver y vot e , includ ing yours, matters for the Sequim School District’s 2015 Bond Proposal. This much-needed school bond will provide improvements to our school buildings, improve safety and provide adequate classroom space.

By improving all of these items, our school district will be able to enhance learning opportunities for all students and continue to give our children a quality education in a safe and secure environment.

The 2015 bond proposal was developed with much participation of our community and reflects the most urgent needs of our school district.

Your YES vote is how you can say that you have the utmost confidence in our community

and will make it clear that we value our young people.

Good schools and educated young people are key elements in building a thriving community and increasing economic development.

As a local businessperson (Price Ford Lincoln in Port Angeles) I recognize that good schools support our property values and for a small investment (63 cents per $1,000 or $189 on a $300,000 home), at a rate lower than it was in 2013, our community will reap the benefits.

There is no doubt that strong schools make strong communities. This is your opportunity to invest in the future of our children and our community. Please join me in casting a YES vote on Feb. 10.

David Price Sequim

Clarity, please!

Some comments regarding your Jan. 14 publication: 1. WHAT? Your “Letters to the Editor” section, the six articles on SARC, one from a board member and the three articles on the school bond issues, one from the manager of Sequim, are BORING! That’s it? Isn’t anybody sending in other letters to print?

Vote yes for Sequim schools We all are the advocates for our children; it is our responsibility to make sure that they have all the necessary tools they need to succeed in life.

For our children to become successful, contributing adults in this world, it starts with an outstanding education. When people are moving to Sequim, even retirees, one of the first questions we are asked is how is our school system. In order to attract

excellent medical professionals, and other young professionals, then we must provide the funds for improving our Sequim schools.

Some of you may feel it does not matter, you are retired and do not have any children in our schools. Who would want to live in a town with a failing school?

Let us remember that it take a village to raise a child.

School district listened to community Kudos to Kelly Shea, his administrative team and community members and parents who have worked on the bond coming before Sequim voters on Feb. 10.

They sought and listened to community input after the failed bond election in 2014 and responded by adjusting the number and scope of projects thereby reducing the financial impact to Sequim’s citizens.

All of this has been accomplished while keeping learning and safety for Sequim students the top priorities.

date the large number of students involved in these programs and space for all students and programs provide teachers the framework to prepare students to be productive citizens.

School safety is a high priority in schools all over our nation and one that districts dare not ignore. This is the reality of the world we live in and an expense that didn’t exist 30 years ago. Thank you to the Sequim School District for keeping safety at the top of their list.

A final thank you to the school district for the excellent YouTube videos accessed on the school district website.

These videos explain the process the district followed after the failed 2014 bond, adjustments that have been made and clearly outlines the need to keep Sequim schools updated and safe.

‘It’s our turn’

The upcoming school bond issue is all about maintaining our buildings and other school assets so as to provide the best quality learning experiences for our children. At some point repairs and replacements must be made to keep them from deteriorating to the point of no longer being useful. Yes, it is costly, but the longer we wait the more expensive it will become. In addition, new and better learning tools will come along to replace the old.

Our parents and grandparents provided us with our education – at least through grade 12. Now, it is our turn.

We should give today’s school children the best that is available. It won’t cost us any more than we have been paying.

They will need it. Please join us in voting for the school bond in February.

And, now they are leaving?

school of their dreams.

We have three more elections this year. Reconsidering will keep all our options open and give us breathing room to address not only the Helen Haller Elementary School replacement but also Greywolf Elementary and Sequim High School renovations — which will be on our ballots soon enough.

Every 20 years creates a new generation of families; the ones most closely affected by the quality of schools.

Modular is built to last a lifetime, is sensible and a choice for quality.

Let’s rethink this construction bond in order to continue this conversation so we can give students a classroom environment that enables learning, easily accommodates ever-changing technological needs and gives us the flexibility to keep up with education for the future.

The Sequim School District deserves kudos for its hard work. But we need to consider what is going to be asked of taxpayers going forward, knowing the district will come back

with other school buildings that need replacement.

The $49 million bond is based on concept only. True cost cannot be determined until after passage.

A yes vote to rebuild Haller Elementary School will raise your total property tax.

Property taxes can only be estimated; there’s no such thing as a Predictable Property Tax. (Ask the Assessor’s Office for more information.)

Something to keep in mind: Although not now on the table, a new school still requires repairs and maintenance. How we deal with M&O (maintenance and operations) is in dire need of restructuring. A truer description of M&O is “operations and maybe maintenance” — only 15 to 25 percent pays for repairs and maintenance.

Students need to concentrate on learning. Taxpayers should concentrate on making the most of the budget.

Lower building costs makes it conceivable each new generation could build the state-of-the-art

• Financing is as easily obtained as conventional construction loans.

• Modular will work on the Olympic Peninsula and delivery requirements can be customized to the site location.

To provide 21st century schools we need 21st century construction.

Students need a state-of-the-art classroom environment to compete in the global marketplace. Achieving that goal makes us a top choice for businesses and families looking for top quality doctors and top quality schools.

Considering modular schools as a practical choice may be a late-tothe-party alternative, but better to take a step back to put the classroom first in line when taxpayers contemplate a $49 million, 20-year commitment to a new school building.

The stereotype that modular is inferior to conventional construction, or resembles a trailer, or is a big square box may have been true years ago.

Today, off-site construction is state of the art. Modular schools have been built in Bainbridge, Marysville and Shoreline, as well as the Tesla STEM School in Redmond.

Why modular schools are worthy of consideration: • Going modular is an opportunity to reduce costs.

Seahawk pride in Sequim

Longtime Sequim residents Nick and Sarah Beeson with their son, Cody, showed their Seahawks spirit and pride on Saturday, Jan. 24, for a community photo in honor of the team once again attending the upcoming Superbowl.

A devoted Seahawks fan for 10 years, Sharon Secor said her dog Leroy is the Seahawks’s “good luck charm” and wears his Seahawks outfit for every game.

More than 150 Seahawks fans rallied in downtown Sequim Saturday, Jan. 24. A number of local businesses donated gift certificates, food and prizes for the event, including: Hiway 101 Diner, 7 Cedars Casino, A-1 Auto Parts, Applebee’s Sequim, Sequim Black Bear Diner, Big 5 Sporting Goods, Blondie’s Plate, The Cedars At Dungeness, The Cracked Bean Coffee Fans since the Seahawks’ humble Co., Domino’s beginning, Wendy and Michael Pizza, Dunge- Smithberg have been behind the ness Kids Co., team since 1976.

Hardy’s Market, Hurricane Coffee Company, Jose’s Famous Salsa, Oak Table Sequim, SkyRidge Golf Course, Sequim’s Sunshine Cafe, Walmart Sequim and Sequim Westside Pizza.

With Super Bowl week officially under way, the sports world still seems transfixed on what is referred to as “Deflategate.”

While the NFL investigates allegations regarding the New England Patriots’ “under-inflated” footballs, local radio station KSQM 91.5FM has decided to offer its own informal survey on the subject.

Realizing that many in the local area may be equally curious, Tama Bankston, director of Office Administration for KSQM, has arranged an opportunity for anyone wishing to actually “feel a few footballs.” The public is invited to visit KSQM studios at 577 W. Washington St. and take part in an informal survey by handling specimen footballs. Is it fat or flat? The inflation of four official NFL size and weight balls have been certified by coach Mike McMahan, a three-time Semi-Pro Hall of Fame quarterback.

Some are set at 12.5 psi, and at least one ball will be under-inflated by 2 pounds (that is: 10.5 psi).

“I’m a huge Seahawks fan and I thought it might be easy to tell the difference between under- and properly inflated footballs,” said Bankston. “It occurred to me that I haven’t even held a football for the last 20 years!”

The balls will be available this week for “tactile analysis” from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. through Friday and 9 a.m.-noon on Saturday, Jan. 31.

Results of the testing will be tallied and announced live on air Saturday at 1 p.m. during KSQM’s Weekend Show with Robert Sommers.

KSQM 91.5FM is a full-power, noncommercial educational radio service of Sequim Community Broadcasting, a 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation and Washington registered charitable organization.

more than 90 countries and every state in the U.S. She considers India the ultimate destination. It is full of color, chaos and contradictions, and it’s only when you immerse yourself in the culture that you can truly begin to enjoy the experience of India. Her best memories of India are not those of the tourist attractions but of meeting the people in the villages and on the roads, getting a glimpse of their daily lives and what makes them happy, and understanding how they co-exist with different religions and cultures. She has found no better place to observe contrasts than in India.

Seventeen days and 550 miles later they had endured heat, hills, sore legs, tired lungs, anxiety about their food supply, a forest fire and hours-long climbs on rough, sandy, washboard roads. But they barely noticed.

They were too busy gawking at the breathtaking landscape, listening to the ripple of blue ribbon trout streams, visiting cozy mountain towns and indulging in the highest concentration of soakable hot springs in North America. Idyllic? Indeed!

They hiked among boiling turquoise thermal pools, forded icy rivers and traversed lava — Iceland’s defining feature — which was both beautiful and challenging. Throughout it all the memories they bring home to their family and friends are of the interesting people they meet.

Travel has broadened the Fredricksons’ world view and helped them understand that people are more alike than they are different in spite of political, social and cultural differences. And they never lose the thrill and memories of the most amazing stories they hear around tables in mountain huts.

In 2014, Batcheller and three Sequim comrades embarked on an epic bike journey through the Canadian section of the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route. Like many great journeys, this one began as a physical challenge and ended up being so much more.

Batcheller writes, “I think I will always remember the towering teeth of rock jutting from the earth and the glowing blue glaciers hanging above the pristine lakes. I will certainly never forget catching that cutthroat trout in the Fording River or racing down miles of dirt roads at unsafe speeds, eating my friend’s dust. But most of all, what will never fade from me is the image I have of that afternoon, high on the pass, looking over at the glowing collective satisfaction on the faces of my three best friends who set it all aside for a couple of weeks to discover themselves once again.”

Long walks have interested Strange for some time whether they be the John Muir Trail, the Pacific Crest Trail or the Southern Upland Way from coast to coast across Scotland. His latest plan was to go long and walk what is known as the End-To-End Walk in 2014 — 1,200 miles or so from Land’s End on the southern tip of Cornwall to the northern tip of Scotland.

This was to be a varied journey of 450 miles through the rolling southern uplands with its beautiful small towns, farming and sheep grazing areas, then through the industrialized midlands of Glasgow to the start of the highlands along the popular West Highland Way and beyond to the last 250 miles into the remote, deep, mist-shrouded glens and mountains of the sparsely populated far northwest. But the best laid plans have a way of going awry. Unforeseen circumstances present themselves. Months or years of planning get shelved as reality on the ground calls for a new plan.

The new adventure can begin as the old plan is scrapped. Strange’s long-cherished End-To-End dream now demanded that he make the metaphorical lemonade. Come find out how.

OTA’s road to Valentine’s starts with ‘I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change’ James Willis and Leona Voss open up the number “A Stud and a Babe” with an awkward conversation during a date before breaking into song.

by MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

A love story for and through the ages may sum up “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change.”

The funny and sometimes sad realities of relationships come to Olympic Theatre Arts, 414 N. Sequim Ave., through song and dance starting with a champagne reception on Jan. 30 and running through Valentine’s Day weekend.

Pat Owens directs Joe Di Pietro and Jimmy Roberts’ play, which he says breaks into two acts; the first being about the relationships leading up to marriage and the second act is marriage and beyond.

Four actors – Leona Voss, Sheenieka Dolan, James Willis and Joel Yelland – take on a cast of 14 characters each and 56 costume changes led by stage manager Steve Schultz.

Owens has worked intricately on the play for almost a year despite no prior knowledge of it.

“A friend of mine told me about it and I wasn’t interested in directing,” he said.

“Before I could get a script, I

Wolves trounce Trojans Sequim fends off Kingston’s Bucs, vies for one of top two spots in league Sequim Gazette staff

Needing a balanced attack to take down one of the Olympic League’s top teams, that’s exactly what Sequim got Friday night.

Vance Willis scored 15 points, Alex Barry had 12 and Jackson Oliver chipped in with 11 as the Wolves (6-3 in league play, 10-6 overall) knocked off the second place Olympic Trojans on Jan. 23, 51-39.

While the Trojans held Barry about nine points under his season average, they didn’t have an answer for Oliver, who scored all 11 of his points in the first half.

Barry and Josh McConnaughey controlled the defensive end, as Barry corralled 16 rebounds and had three blocks and McConnaughey had nine boards. Barry also had two steals, as did Willis, Oliver and Dustin Bates.

Sequim led 14-9 after one quarter, 33-23 by halftime and 46-29 after three quarters.

The Wolves were scheduled to host North Mason on Jan. 27 — results were not available at press With four Kingston defenders closing in, Sequim’s Alex Barry still manages to rise above for two of his game-high 21 points as Sequim knocks off Kingston 47-35 on Jan. 20.

Sequim grapplers finish with three match wins in a row Eight wrestlers take first at Sequim JV meet Sequim Gazette staff

After three winless seasons, Sequim’s wrestlers finished the 2014-2015 regular season strong.

Earlier this season, the Wolves won duels over Mount Tahoma, White River, North Mason, Port Townsend, Bremerton and most recently Kingston. They finished their head-to-head match-ups on

Jan. 22 with a 60-24 win over the Buccaneers in Sequim.

Five varsity wrestlers won with pins while six weight classes (113, 145, 182, 220 and 285) went to Sequim in forfeit.

Working up the weight classes, Jaime Schroepfer (106 pounds) pinned Matt Thomas in 2:31, Craig Baker (126) took down Peyton Reese in 4:39 while Hayden Gresli (132) pinned Hunter Zook in 1:31.

Kevyn Ward (152) continued winning for the Wolves with a pin over Nick Waltersdorf in 4:34 and Glenn Uy (160) defeated Riley Zook.

Sequim slips in matchups with premier league teams Sequim Gazette staff

After a week of working to get ahead of .500, the Lady Wolves dropped two to the Olympic League’s best.

Sequim (4-5 in league and 8-9 overall) traveled to first-place Kingston (9-0 in league) on Tuesday, Jan. 20, for a lop-sided 61-29 loss to the Buccaneers. For their final home game of the season, the Wolves hosted the second-place Olympic Trojans (8-1) for a 52-40 loss.

Sequim coach Evan Still said following tough losses, the girls tend to lean on each other.

“We haven’t had the consistency that we were expecting this year and I know that it has been a little frustrating for us, but our girls do a great job of looking to the next game and I think that helps a lot,” he said.

The losses place Sequim into a tie for third with North Kitsap (4-5, 8-7) who they face next week in the Wolves’ final game of the season on Feb. 3.

Taking on Kingston Against the Buccaneers, Sequim couldn’t make up an early deficit led

by Skyler Bakken who scored 17 and Katelyn Carper with 12 in the game.

At the end of the first quarter, the Wolves were overrun 15-3 and finished the half down 32-12. They only scored double digits in the third quarter (12) and the Buccaneers scored 15 extending their lead to 47-24 at HAGGERTY the end of three.

Sophomore Adrienne Haggerty led Sequim in scoring with 9 points and 12 rebounds followed by Victoria Cummins with seven points and Hailey Lester with six boards.

Against the Trojans, the Wolves kept things a little closer at home despite a slow start.

Olympic opened the game up 7-3 at the end of one but Sequim stepped up its scoring to cut the lead to 20-18 at half time.

Still said the Wolves were getting great shots but weren’t converting.

“We missed 13 shots from five feet and in against Olympic,” he said.

“That’s a lot of points that are being left out there.”

Olivia Williams paced the Trojans with 26 points and helped Olympic score 32 second half points over Sequim’s 22.

Caitlin Stofferahn led the Wolves with 14 points and Elise Beuke STOFFERAHN (six points) grabbed seven rebounds.

Earlier in the season Kingston defeated the Wolves in Sequim 61-35 on Dec. 17 and Olympic won at home 40-31 on Dec. 19.

With three games left, Still said the girls will continue to work on defensive rebounding, cutting down on turnovers (the team averages 20 a game).

“Those two things together are a recipe for a tough game and a tough season,” he said.

This week, the Wolves are at North Mason (1-7) on Tuesday and head to Port Angeles on Friday (3-5). They finish the season in North Kitsap (45) on Feb. 3. Districts begin Feb. 11.

Still said he looks to his seniors including Cummins, Caitlin Stofferahn and Elise Beuke, to lead the girls on the court these last few games.

He said Cummins has been solid all season and wants her to keep it up while he looks to Stofferahn to stay aggressive on defense and confident on offense. Beuke is a force inside on defense, he said, and looks for her to

The Wolves also hosted seven teams for its All Comers Junior Varsity meet on Jan. 24 with most of Sequim’s wrestlers competing.

Players were separated into two groups among weight classes for round robin matches among four wrestlers in each weight class.

Sequim’s first-place finishers in

the A bracket were Kiara Pierson 106 pounds, Jillian HutchinsonBlouin 120, Kevyn Ward 152, Michael Latimer 220, Brady Young 285 and in the B bracket Alma Mendoza 126, Travis Baker 138 and Nathan Allison 285.

Avalanche roll to win in Seaside Sequim Gazette staff

Somebody break up the Avalanche.

The select girls basketball squad made up of players from the North Olympic Peninsula took its second sixth-grade title this season — and eight overall for the group — with a victory in a competition in Seaside, Ore., last weekend.

Playing without leading scorer Emilia Long (illness), the team saw Madison Cooke step up with some huge games.

“The girls were singled out and commended by the referees for their sportsmanship this weekend,” coach Joe Marvelle said.

In championship, the girls rallied from a halftime deficit versus a tough Puyallup team to pull

away for the victory, he said.

In game one, the Avalanche dominated a team from Knappa, Ore., 54-4, with Cooke hitting for 14 points and Jaida Wood nabbing 14 rebounds.

Sequim’s Kalli Wiker had six points and eight boards.

In game two, the Avalanche overwhelmed Puyallup 26-13, with Cooke and Hannah Reetz sharing top scoring honors with eight points each and Wood grabbing 11 rebounds.

In game three, the Avalanche blanked host Seaside 42-0, with Cooke and Wood scoring 12 each.

In the championship, the Avalanche topped Puyallup 31-19, with Wiker leading the way. She scored eight points, had eight rebounds and was 4-for-4 from the free throw line.

Another x-factor for the Wolves will be how much Haggerty gets the ball and converts around the basket.

“She finishes and rebounds extremely well,” Still said. “We are looking to her to step up and be more aggressive on offense.”

Soccer axed at Olympic Olympic College cut its men’s and women’s soccer programs in early January, the North Kitsap Herald reported last week.

Olympic College Athletic Director Barry Janusch announced on Jan. 5 that the men’s and women’s programs would be cut from the budget and the cut was made by the board of trustees.

Olympic College’s soccer squads play in the same division as Peninsula College. The Ranger men finished 2-14-2 for the season while Olympic’s women were 11-10-1.

Sequim High graduate Hector Baylon played for the Rangers in the fall of 2014, while Olympic’s women’s team featured Shayla Northern of Port Angeles.

that stood out were Mendoza pinning one of Olympic’s top wrestlers Madison Asaro in a hard-fought match and Hayden Gresli pinning Brandon Currie of Port Angeles in 5:40 with the score tied 3-3.

Ward won all of his matches with first round pins, Drabek said, and Latimer’s third-round match was won quickly with a pin at 1:16 over Garrett Mitchell of Juanita while leading 4-3.

Sequim’s junior varsity wrestlers travel to Port Angeles on Jan. 31 for its JV Wrestling Challenge and the following week, it hosts the 2A sub regional tournament on Feb. 6-7.

as Dakota Henderson, Tenille Tosland and Kaitlyn Jackson each qualified as individuals to bowl at the district tournament, set for Saturday, Jan. 31, at Pacific Lanes in Tacoma.

Olympic’s Trojans cruised to the league’s top district berth, taking five of the top 11 individual spots.

The 4.5-mile Whiskey Bend Road is closed after the first mile due to a slide and extensive road damage, Olympic National Park officials said earlier this week.

Motorists may access the Glines Canyon parking area, with access to the east abutment overlook, but vehicle access is closed beyond that.

Heavy rains and high winds earlier this month resulted in a slide that destroyed over 50 linear feet of the roadbed and reduced the road’s width to less than a travel lane.

The road remains open to pedestrian use; hikers should use caution in crossing the slide area.

A timeline for reopening the road has not yet been established; park crews are working with road engineers to develop a repair design and schedule.

Weather permitting, the Olympic Hot Springs Road is open to the trailhead but may close temporarily in the event of snow, ice or fallen trees.

nests, how and where birds nest, as well as the care and maintenance of nests and nesting boxes — because it is time to think about birds and spring.

The class, presented by Ken Wiersema and Shirley Anderson, shows participants how to par-

ticipate in the Great Backyard Bird Count, a national annual census of bird populations which occurs over Presidents Day weekend in mid-February.

Following a short field trip to tally birds in Railroad Bridge Park, learn how to enter data in

the Great Backyard Bird Count computer database.

The presentation is the fourth of the series of eight classes offered by the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society. Families and individuals are invited to attend any or all of the sessions.

From page B-1

Early 2014 January started with a couple of Harris’ and whitethroated sparrows in the Dungeness area. Then barn swallows showed up along 3 Crabs Road. That wasn’t expected (as I write these words on Jan. 15, barn swallows have shown up again in the same area). Rusty blackbirds are, simply put, rare … but one was found near Maple View farm.

Several other goodies found late in 2013 were relocated adding to the growing tally. The Emperor goose, which was No. 300 in 2013, was seen from Knapp Road out at Diamond Point, and the thick-billed murre, found on the Port Angeles CBC, was relocated out in the harbor.

A wayward Bullock’s oriole was coming to feeders above Cline’s Spit.

Over on Kitchen-Dick ponds a canvasback was found, while a glaucous gull was seen hanging with other gulls in a pasture along Woodcock Road.

The first rufous hummingbird, returning along its northward migration route, showed up in late February.

In the early spring March came in like a lion and it went out like a lion. Such are the quirks of weather along the face of the strait in early spring.

But it also brought the swallows. These marvels of the sky seemed to blossom from the night, pirouetting over the marshes of Dungeness with the dawning sun.

Tree and violet-greens were the first. Then came the barneys and cliffs. Then came rough-winged. Lastly came the purple martins.

Also found was a lone bank swallow, an honorably good bird!

At this time, a unique clique of sparrows was coming to a feeder in Dungeness: a Harris’, a white-throated, white-crowned and goldencrowned. These four species make up the complex of Zonotrichia sparrows found in North America. To have

them all showing up at one feeder was truly a birder’s dream.

A running count on humans who came trying to see these four sparrows at the same time was kept while all four sparrows were present.

More than 500 birders stood in that driveway, peering into shrubs and watching the feeder. It was a fine showing of fanaticalness!

As March moved into April other goodies appeared. Two snow buntings were found on Ediz Hook. Neah Bay provided three swamp sparrows. Migrating shorebirds were showing up along the strait, including western and least sandpipers, dowitchers, yellowlegs and plovers.

The first Caspian tern was seen along the Wa’atch River at Neah Bay. Turkey vultures were appearing in larger numbers.

But as new birds were arriving, others were beginning to leave after overwintering. By late

ing. And the two blackcrowned night-herons (Gale and Windy) returned to Dungeness to overwinter for the sixth year running.

That brings the county to Oct. 26 — the day the Eurasian hobby was found and the onset of one of the most incredible two-week periods of birding in the county in years began.

I won’t delve into the details of that period except to note that an incredible array of species was found, photographed, recorded and just generally watched in bliss by hundreds of birders.

The goodies included Orchard oriole, Bullock’s oriole, cattle egret, slaty-backed gull, brambling, Harris’ sparrow, grasshopper sparrow, Brewer’s sparrow, snow bunting, clay-colored sparrow, Nashville warbler, tropical kingbird, rose-breasted grosbeak, rough-legged hawk, palm warbler, glaucous gull and scrub jay! Unbelievably fantastic! (see Sequim Gazette’s “Our Birds” columns in November and December 2014 for a full accounting).

On to winter And then it was over. Winter was beginning. Christmas Bird Counts were thought of.

A few more rarities put in brief appearances: a redhead, a Franklin’s gull, pine grosbeaks gave a good showing and a tundra swan flew into Wa’atch Valley along with a herd of trumpeters.

The 284 bird records tallied in 2014 were tucked away.

Photos were filed. Recordings were sent off to be archived.

Write-ups for those who kept records were written.

And a new Rite-in-Rain notebook, pencil poised waited for one second after midnight, Dec. 31, to start the game all over again.

Events in the bird world can get really exciting in late summer and early fall.

A bird’s inner compass may go haywire, storms can cause havoc with migration patterns or mystical events materialize that offer no explanation for why a rarity shows up.

This is what happens as a result: a great egret in La Push, a rock wren near Dungeness, a lesser goldfinch at Neah Bay and a Clark’s nutcracker in Port Angeles.

moving north with two species creating a stir of excitement: broad-winged and Swainson’s. Both are rare and were observed from the old Hawk Watch site on Bahokus Mountain in Neah Bay. Other rarities were discovered, from the Brewer’s and vesper sparrow and yellowheaded blackbird to a lazuli bunting.

Over Dungeness at about 8 p.m. on June 6, three common nighthawks made their return known with songs and an aerial show. What’s astonishing about this sighting is that it’s happened six years in a row, now – almost to the hour!

28 white pelicans came into Dungeness Bay in a flurry.

It’s a funny mixture of movement.

One of the oddest sightings at this time was that of a female king eider found north of Dungeness Spit. By late July there were at least 17 species of shorebirds being tallied from Dungeness Landing. One was an American golden plover – a Code 4. The gulls weren’t to be outdone by mere shorebirds; at least nine species were beach-combing the shores of the strait and ocean.

The most notable, as always, were California gulls, whose population by late summer reached into the double-digit thousands. Jaegers have become a rare find in the county with only a single parasitic found.

Out in pelagic waters, the county’s tally of species was fair this year. Goodies included south polar skua; red-necked and red phalaropes; Laysan and black-footed albatross; pinkfooted, Buller’s, short-tailed, sooty and Manx’s shearwaters; Leach’s and fork-tailed storm-petrels and Sabine’s gull.

March, trumpeter swans were down from a high count of around 100 to only a few birds in the Schmuck Road area and a half-dozen in the Wa’atch Valley. This was the same for brant and American wigeon – the thousands that spent the winter on Dungeness Bay were beginning to head north to their breeding grounds.

April saw the return of the usual suspects: multicolored warblers arrived almost to the day as in previous years, flycatchers appeared as if by magic and sulky vireos were heard in their natural haunts.

The Neah Bay osprey pair returned to their nesting site two days earlier than last year. Tufted puffins were seen off Cape Flattery — a sure sign that spring was moving them in from their wintering waters hundreds of miles off the coast.

Tanagers showed up, as did western kingbirds.

Cougars Casting Out Conflicts

Greywolf students participated in a “book tasting” at the Book Tasting Café in the library. New books were served up on platters and students selected an appetizer, main course and dessert book. Many students took a risk and tried a new flavor, a book they would not usually choose.

Some students even discovered they would like to devour the new flavor they had explored!

As students sampled the books they took notes about their observations and thoughts. After tasting three courses (books), some students gave feedback to Chef Ricco (depicted by teacher/librarian Dena Riccobene) about the flavors they had experienced while sampling the books. Spicy, sour, thrilling, odd and interesting were some of the descriptions.

As a result of many books being in high demand, the café will be utilizing a reservation list in the future!

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.

“I think the world should end all wars.”

I want to end all wars because of so many deaths! It is so unnecessary. All the governments should make peace. People from all over the USA are sad from family members dying. That is why I want to end all wars. Ben Jones “Let food, houses and cars be free.”

Conflicts between parents and children about money

GREYWOLF ELEMENTARY SCHOOL In Kelli Mishko’s kindergarten class, students have been learning all about Martin Luther King Jr. Last week, students wrote facts about Martin Luther King Jr. and colored pictures of him.

Tegan Kurtze wrote, “He was smart and brave.”

Lindsey Chatterton said, “He stood up for us.”

Bjorn Henrickson wrote, “He had four kids.”

SEQ

Unfortunately, money causes conflicts within families. It is difficult to see your child spending his money foolishly. However, the goal of giving a young person money is for him to learn how to spend his money.

The fact that he has little to spend keeps him from getting himself into a major problem. This is one of the reasons you want him to learn now rather than wait until he is in college and in a position that can be very serious.

Most experts would say, “Let your child spend his money in this grow-

ing up period on whatever he wants.”

You probably won’t agree on what your child picks.

Your child would say that you don’t understand about being young.

Teenagers have an endless list and most of the stuff is unnecessary according to his mom and dad. Making the right and the wrong decision will help him learn how to make better decisions in the future.

Experts also say don’t bail him out.

That is the worst thing you can do.

If you rescue him, he doesn’t have

to deal with the importance of his mistake. It is like giving them an “undo” button — but life doesn’t have an “undo” button.

Be prepared for some tough times but some great teaching moments.

These are critically important lessons for your child to learn, for you as a family to talk together about and for you too to learn.

Remember that you are role models for him; make sure you are spending your money wisely and that you are looking at what you need to be

saving, investing and giving.

Watch your child learn and grow from the lessons you help teach him.

Knowing he is watching you may help you learn some of the lessons you want him to learn.

Cynthia Martin is the founder of the First Teacher program and director of Parenting Matters Foundation, which publishes newsletters for parents, caregivers and grandparents.

Students’ variety show benefits senior class ‘Senior Night Live’ covers gamut of pop culture new and old

done some of the sketches in the past which remain a tradition like “Men in Tights” while they try to keep it fresh with new routines, too.

The comedy variety show welcomes any students who want to participate, Hall said.

“Our last show (‘Charley’s Aunt’) had 10 kids in it, but this gives kids more opportunities and I cast them all,” she said.

“I’m hoping they all try out for ‘Fiddler on the Roof’ (the school’s spring operetta during the Irrigation Festival). We’ll do casting next month.”

The show also parodies “The Hunger Games” with a special sur prise guest. In bet ween sketches, videos will be shown, too.

“Senior Night Live” serves as a benefit for the Sequim Class of 2015. Hall said the show has raised as much as $5,000 for a senior class.

Seniors include Mikaele Baker,

Sequim Schools ... Moving from Good to Great.

Here is What Your Community is Saying: “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.”

– Ron Allen, Chairman, Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe “Based on my experience in managing eight different communities and my lifetime occupation of observing what makes communities successful and unsuccessful, I urge a ‘YES’ vote on the bond issue.”

– Steve Burkett, Manager, City of Sequim

“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!”

– Bill Dickinson, Police Chief, City of Sequim “One of the first questions a potential home buyer asks is ‘How are your schools?’ Strong schools will always add value to your home.”

– Marguerite Glover, Realtor®, Sequim “The quality of our local schools and learning opportunities are a key factor when attracting businesses, individuals and their families to the area. I deliberately live in Sequim because it’s where I want to raise my family, and the enhanced quality of life that comes with these improved facilities is something we can all enjoy … Please join me in voting ‘YES’.”

– Brian Kuh, President, Clallam County Economic Development Council “The Sequim School Bond is critical to having the quality local facilities needed for our students.

OMC Commissioners have endorsed and many local physicians, nurses and other health care professionals support the School Bond and know the importance of our schools to our local health care system. Please join me in voting ‘YES’ for the Sequim School Bond.

– Eric Lewis, CEO, Olympic Medical Center “Our local economy depends on strong public schools. There is no better infrastructure investment than our schools.”

– Colleen McAleer, Commissioner, Port of Port Angeles “I support this measure on the ballot. 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.”

– Jim McEntire, Commissioner, Clallam County “Our students deserve safe, secure and healthy environments that support the best that educators can offer … Our legislature will spend the next three years finding money to fund ‘basic education.’ They do not include capital expenditures for new schools in that equation … Please join me. Vote ‘YES’ on this bond issue. It is in our community’s best interest.”

– Candace Pratt, Mayor, City of Sequim “There is no doubt that strong schools make strong communities. This is your opportunity to invest in the future of our children and our community. Please join me in casting a ‘YES’ vote on February 10.”

“Isn’t the best way we can invest in our future to invest in our schools? … Making sure Sequim has 21st century facilities for our children to learn in benefits us all … Please join me in voting ‘YES’ for the school bond in February.”

– Steve Tharinger, State Representative “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.”

– Kevin VanDeWege, State Representative “ I had the opportunity to attend public school classes in well-maintained, safe buildings and had a plethora of extra-curricular activities from which to choose. Should our children not have the same?”

ELLIE is a Hound / Shepherd mix about 7 years old. She is a sweetie! She might be best as an only pet since she doesn’t share her toys very well... Ellie walks very well on a leash and will need a secure yard to keep her safe (she can/will jump a short fence to go on an adventure).

Ellie would be a super great walking partner!

LADY is a sweet girl! Super friendly with people, and seems to want to play with other dogs as well.

However, she is NOT good with cats! Lady is a high energy dog that would benefit from an owner that can provide her with lots of socializing and exercise! She is not the type of dog that you can just have in your yard...

She will need continuous socializing to keep her behaving like a good citizen.

NASH is a new arrival, and he was a stray, so we are just now getting to know him. He appears to be very calm and mature.

He has a pleasant demeanor and soulful eyes. We are not sure if Nash had a good life before coming to us... We think Nash is in need of an owner that will be able to spoil him in his remaining years!

MAX was a shy boy with new people. However, he is beginning to warm up to us and show how sweet he can be! Max definitely needs some training (especially on leash), but he has loads of potential.

Max would do best with an experienced owner. Max may be better suited to a home where he can spend most of the day outside, he doesn’t really know how to behave in a house!
