Golden recognition 30 years in the making

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Kelly Yarnes has been seen on postcards, magnets and blankets in Sequim, and soon the gold medal winner will see her name go next to some of Sequim’s other elite athletes on a sign along U.S. Highway 101.

Yarnes earned gold for her softball throw in the 1988 International German American Special Olympics, along with a silver medal in the long jump and a bronze for her 50-yard dash.

That summer was a tremendous one for the future Sequim grad after she was selected from hundreds of American children to carry the torch and light the ceremonial flame for the United States.

Kelly’s mother Laurie Yarnes said the Special Olympics are sometimes overlooked, but that she feels it’s great for daughter to have a recognition and sense of accomplishment then and now.

“They want to be like everybody else as they perceive every-

body else to be and to do what everyone else does,” he said. “Yet they don’t see themselves as any different, so this is a pretty awesome thing.”

Kelly’s name will go on a

sign going westbound on U.S. Highway 101 below the names of rower Joe Rantz and skeet shooter Matt Dryke, Sequim’s other two gold medalists.

Laurie said she’s tried for

years to find the right contacts about placing a sign up for her daughter’s victory but it wasn’t until recently that she received a surprise call about the sign going up in the coming weeks.

“We were so excited,” she said.

“This was a pretty special thing for her to get.”

“Everyone has been telling me congratulations and that they’re excited,” Kelly said.

Staff and volunteers with the nonprofits Welfare for Animals Guild and Olympic Peninsula Humane Society were busy last week helping county officials track down nearly 30 dogs from a rural home in Agnew.

After sorting through what they describe as the worst conditions they’ve seen in these kinds of rescues, WAG members said they hope the situation is an instrument for change.

“It was shock and awe,” WAG president Barb Brabant said. “We had to get the dogs out of there.”

Following the death of the dogs’ owner about two weeks ago, an estimated 29 Australian Shepherd-Border Collies were left at the rural Gunn Road property, with about six or seven running free and the remaining in several structures on the property, WAG representatives said.

It took a week for Tracy Kellas, Clallam County animal control officer, and WAG members to trap and round up the scared canines, Clallam County chief criminal deputy Brian King said last week.

The majority of the dogs were not emaciated so they had been fed or found food, WAG members said, but the dogs were stressed and have had diarrhea. Four dogs found in a garage structure — a mom and three puppies — were frightened and hadn’t left

Desire to compete

When she wore an antique dress in lavender fields, Kelly Yarnes was known as “The Lavender Lady.” Her likeness has appeared on blankets, post cards, magnets and more. Now her name goes up on a sign outside of Sequim for winning a gold medal at the 1988 International German American Special Olympics. Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

Kelly, who has a seizure disorder that affects her learning, has faint memories of competing as a 10-year-old, but said she does remember carrying the torch and how much she wanted to participate in the Special Olympics.

“I really wanted to do it,” she said.

The medals remain safely stored in the upstairs of the Yarnes’ home.

Kelly didn’t compete again after the 1988 Olympics. Laurie said her daughter is shy and the

Baby birds replaced in nest, watched over by neighbors

BY LEAH LEACH Olympic Peninsula News Group

Neighbors are keeping an eagle eye on a nest on Marine Drive in Sequim.

Two eaglets too young to fly were placed back into their nest overlooking Dungeness Bay last week, after they were discovered under a bush in a yard across the street from the tree in which the nest is lodged.

The babies apparently fell from the bald eagle nest high in the tree and Jaye Moore, the retired director of the Northwest Raptor Center in Sequim who “still dabbles” in animal rescue, worries that the baby birds will fall again.

“The nest was flat, not round,” said Moore who has decades of experience in animal rescues, many of injured eagles.

“They are going to need baby gates up to keep these kids in.”

Eagles build their nests in a bowl shape, but as the nests age they fill with feathers, bones and other debris, which eventually flattens out the wellused crib.

This one was confirmed to be an old, flat nest by the climber who replaced the eaglets in the nest, Moore said.

She had called Casey Balch, who owns the Pacific Northwest Tree Service, for help.

Usually eagles have alternate nests so that if one fills up then they can use another one.

“They are going to have to do some work on this one if they want to keep it,” Moore said.

And at this point, the adult eagles can’t move the chicks, which are only three to four weeks old, Moore said. Unlike animals that can carry their young in soft mouths, eagles have only talons. They can’t grip a baby or “they’d skewer him,” Moore said.

So the eaglets will remain

A pair of eaglets await being returned to their nest overlooking Dungeness Bay on Thursday. The birds were found in a residential yard across Marine Drive not far from the tree containing their nest. Jaye Moore, retired director of the Northwest Raptor Center, said no one has any idea how the eaglets, which had not yet fledged, ended up where they were found. “That’s the million-dollar question,” she said.

The Guild keeps giving.

The Sequim-Dungeness Hospital Guild continued its tradition of giving to local agencies at the annual Spring Luncheon in 7 Cedars Casino.

The all-volunteer organization presented more than $27,000 to four agencies on May 23 with $17,000 going to the Dungeness Valley Health and Wellness Clinic, $6,000 to the Peninsula College Foundation, $4,000 to Olympic Medical Center, and $500 to KSQM 91.5 FM. “We couldn’t do what we do without The Guild,” said Sara Nicholls, the Free Clinic’s executive director. “Our community is really blessed to have this group here.”

Donations to the clinic support its general operations, she said, to offer free medical care services to the Sequim community through its allvolunteer staff.

More than 175 people attended the luncheon, which featured a silent auction and fashion show of clothes available at The Guild Thrift Store

Food Bank adds parking, looks to future Organizers seek input on next steps

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

As need continues to grow at the Sequim Food Bank, organizers look to expand its offerings.

Last week, a crew with C&J Excavating demolished the Food Bank’s newest addition, a home at at 154 W. Alder St., on May 23-24, said facility board member Stephen Rosales.

Food bank officials purchased the home in 2017 for $140,000 using a monetary Crewmen with C&J Excavating demolish a home at 154 W. Alder St. on May 23 to make room gift from an anonymous estate for parking and potentially a new facility for the Sequim Food Bank. Facility organizers said with the intent to increase they welcome input on the future of the Food Bank by 360-681-1205 or 360-461-6038. Sequim operations, programs and Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

Eaglets

From page A-2 they are not expected to be able to walk, Moore said.

Standing and walking are skills generally developed at about six weeks of age.

“I don’t understand how they made it that far,” she said.

The two birds, which are about one foot tall and are covered in pin feathers, were discovered by a man walking his dog at about 9 a.m. Thursday, May 23.

Andy Pitts’ dog sniffed out the eaglets in a yard next door to Pitts’ home, and Pitts immediately phoned Moore.

She arrived at about 10 a.m. and took the twosome to Greywolf Veterinary Hospital in Sequim where Dr. Brittany Rose examined them. Other than a few maggots in their ears, the babies were healthy and wellnourished, Moore said.

Since they were uninjured, Moore decided to put them back in the nest. That’s when

she called on Balch and his climbing skills.

He managed to get the babies — apparently the only ones in the family — out of the duffel bag and back into the nest by about 3 p.m.

During the rescue, worried parents paid close attention, Moore said.

“They were close by,” she said. “They’d fly overhead — we’d have to duck. They were watching.

“They were really concerned, as I would be if they were my kids.”

Since the eaglets were returned to the nest, they haven’t been seen, Moore said Friday.

“Mom and Dad have been in and out, but we haven’t seen the babies,” Moore said. “I’m hoping and praying that they are still there.”

Pitts, the man who found the eaglets, shares her concern.

“He’s been keeping an eye on the nest,” Moore said, in case another rescue is needed.

storage, Sequim Food Bank Executive Director Andra Smith said.

Rosales said C&J Excavating removed the home and pulled out some tree stumps to make room for extra parking for the food bank, which opens three days a week for in-need visitors in the Sequim area.

“Now, we’re going to start planning,” Rosales said. “We’ve formed a strategic planning committee for the future.”

No timeline has been set for future plans, he said, but board members welcome input from the community by calling 360-681-1205 or 360461-6038.

In November 2017 after the property was purchased, Rosales and Smith said one of the pushes for purchasing

the home and property was to expand the Weekend Meal Program that provides food to in-need students year-round in Sequim School District.

Organizers said the program has added to the demand and lack of space at the facility, which could lead to a new storage building next door among many other options.

If a new facility was built next door, Smith said in a previous interview, the Weekend Meal Program could move into it along with new storage, food preparation demonstrations and other new programs.

The Sequim Food Bank, 144 W. Alder St., is open 1-4 p.m.

Mondays, and 9 a.m.-noon Fridays and Saturdays.

Scouts lend a hand at PFOA 1st Security Bank boosts B&G Club’s Keystone Group The volunteers and staff with Peninsula Friends of Animals give thanks and accolades to Sequim Boy Scout Troop 1498 and their project leader, Alec Shingleton — whose love of cats and PFOA’s rescue mission led him to contact the organization for a Scout project.

Over the course of four days, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m., the Sequim youths completed several maintenance jobs at the PFOA facility, staffers say, including: repairing play structures in the outside yards making them safe for kittens to play on, pressure-washing outside

The Sequim Boys and Girls Club’s Keystone Group is raising money to send club members to attend the annual Keystone conference in Orlando, Fla., from July 11-13.

The group is a service and leadership club for teens providing opportunities to participate in activities in four focus areas: community service, academic success, career preparation and teen outreach.

1st Security Bank recently donated $1,000 to support their fundraising efforts.

This year’s conference speakers are entrepreneurial leaders who will showcase teens as “dynamic, successful professionals and inspire them to make a difference in their lives, the club and their community,” 1st Security representatives said in a press release.

Discover PC day

Water presentation on tap A presentation called “Water in the Age of Climate Change” is set for 10-11 a.m. Saturday, June 1, at the Clallam County Master Gardener Demonstration Garden, 2711 Woodcock Road.

Followed by a question-and-answer session, the presentation is free and no registration is required.

Water use and conservation in the time of climate change is a current and ongoing issue and changes in hydrology of the Dungeness River play an important part in the economics and quality of life on the Olympic Peninsula, presentation organizers say.

Master Gardener John Stednick will touch on this issue and set the stage for irrigation demands. Master Gardener Susan Kalmar brings the issue into residents’ yards and presents ideas on how to install, repair and manage a simple drip-water system. The presentation also features reference materials, mock-ups and a demonstration to encourage gardeners to learn how to save time and water.

Call 360-565-2679 for more information.

Games, free food, and activities are on tap for Discover Peninsula College Day, scheduled fro 11 a.m.-7 p.m. Wednesday, May 29, on the college’s main campus, 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd., Port Angeles.

Help children of Nepal The Global Humanity Initiative (GHI) is preparing to ship several cases of children’s toothbrushes and toothpaste to their medical partner in Kathmandu, Nepal, to help improve the health and wellness of impoverished children in Nepal. Thanks to a donation from Jamestown Family Dental, GHI is able to fulfill a promise made in January to the clinic’s medical director to send more.

“Children’s toothbrushes are virtually impossible to find in Nepal,” Alicia Jean Demetropolis, GHI founder and president said, “And those you can find are expensive. This gift from Jamestown will be used in the clinic’s

Brown said placing the non-toxic deterrent usually goes down around mid-July for Lavender Weekend as more people frequent the park.

City staff also add fake dogs/coyotes around the pond but that only deters the birds for about a month, he said.

“This year we’ll do it all a little bit earlier, but that’s OK,” Brown said. “If people are going to get closer then the ducks and geese are on guard. Our hope is people will give wildlife the space they need.”

In previous years city crews have placed the bird deterrent in fields and human high-traffic areas to prevent droppings by play structures and the Albert Haller Playfields.

Staff Sgt. Sean Madison with Sequim Police said in the past animal control has had to capture farm-raised

geese that neglectful owners let go in the park.

Visitors must learn to coexist with wild birds safely, Madison said.

City Manager Charlie Bush agrees with the sentiment.

“From the city’s perspective we have a beautiful community with a lot of wildlife and we need to be aware of the real dangers of them,” Bush said.

If you have a lost or found an animal, or a concern for an animals well-being from potential neglect/ abuse, call Sequim Police Department at 360-6837227 or the Department of Community Development at 360-683-4908.

Staff Sgt. Sean Madison said the child had been attacked in the head but medics arrived quickly and treated the child on scene.

Sequim operations manager Ty Brown said this time of year is problematic because the birds are nesting in the park and are territorial.

“We’re waiting for a dry day, probably Wednesday (May 29), and we’ll mow and put down geese deterrent,” Brown said.

“It smells like grape bubble gum and the geese will get the taste in their mouth and it’ll take them a few days to realize this isn’t a good feeding ground,” he said.

Dogs

From page A-1 living space at the WAG Half Way Home Ranch for the first several days after rescue, WAG members said.

“Most of these dogs were terrified,” WAG volunteer Kelly Probst said. “These dogs didn’t know any different. They didn’t want to leave.

It was safe (to them).”

Said WAG volunteer Richard Probst, “I gave them 10 gallons (of water); they drank it all down.”

The animals — which included about a dozen pigs, WAG members said — were left alone on the property after Virginia J. Wilton died May 15, King said.

Wilton died of natural causes two days after her 69th birthday, according to the death notice in Peninsula Daily News.

Family members could not be reached for comment.

WAG board director Mel Marshall said she and other guild volunteers who helped with the rescue aren’t looking to blame anyone for the

dogs’ situation, but rather looking at what can be done to make sure something similar doesn’t happen again.

“People in Clallam County need to know its going on,” Kelly Probst said. “This was a cry for help. Why do we not have crisis intervention? This is a dog-loving community. If they knew, we could stop it.”

next several days, while the pigs went to a Joyce resident, WAG members said. As in other similar rescues WAG members set up cameras on the property to see if there were any stragglers.

“I’ve worked in real estate — I’ve never seen anything like this,” Brabant said.

“She had lots of stuff; it was trash,” Marshall said. “(But she was) not a hoarder.”

Though both Humane Society and WAG facilities were at or near capacity, the Humane Society wound up taking more than a dozen dogs and WAG found room for 11. Center Valley Animal Rescue in Quilcene took four of the more unhealthy dogs, WAG members said.

“They’re coming around,” Marshall said of WAG’s rescues.

In distress Marshall said the guild had known about dogs running free in Wilton’s neighborhood for years, but first heard about the Agnew resident’s

death from a volunteer.

WAG members can’t assist with a rescue unless given permission — “We have to be invited onto the property to do anything,” Brabant said — but once they did, on May 16, they found some rough conditions in and outside the house.

“If we would have known (how bad it was) we would have worn HAZMAT suits, boots and full gear,” Probst said.

WAG worked with Kellas and the Humane Society to remove the dogs over the

sistance both financially and with helping the dogs heal.

While many of them are fearful and not their healthiest now, Brabant said, “We can rehab them.”

Probst said the dogs will be able to be adopted, but, “It’s going to take a special person.”

One dog in particular has made an impact with WAG volunteers. The only one they found with a collar, they’ve dubbed Eyelean: “Eye” for the eye that the female had injured and needed stitches, and “Lean” because she tends to lean in to whomever is petting her.

“She looked at us, literally grabbed and hung on to us,” Probst said.

“They say all dogs need are food, shelter, water … (but) this dog needed medical attention,” Marshall said.

Probst said a kind of silver lining in it all, she said, is that the rescue may put a spotlight on getting help for Kellas, the county animal control officer responsible for a geographically large county.

“They need a task force (and for) people to watch in neighborhoods for these kinds of situations,” Probst said.

“This has been harrowing for everyone, especially the dogs,” she said.

“They were all extremely fearful and skittish,” Hinkle said of the rescued dogs.

“Obviously, they had been fed. They did not show any severe malnutrition, but they probably had been outside and not been fed with good food. Many had skin conditions. We treated them for fleas and worm and mites, and we groomed them.”

Hinkle said the animals will be spayed and neutered.

None of the dogs are socialized enough to be adopted yet, although they are not aggressive, she said.

“They are very hard to handle,” she added. “In terms of people wanting to adopt them, they are not ready, and I don’t know when they are going to be ready.”

On the Humane Society website, members note, “These little ones will require lots of care, including slow and steady socialization as they are very fearful.

Chances are they will be with us for some time until they are ready for a good, loving home.”

TRACK & FIELD

Wolves race to state 2A championship Seniors lead the way as Wolves claim first boys team title in school history

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

Battling wind and rain and some of the top prep competitors in the state, Sequim’s boys track and field squad ran, hurdled and threw to a state title — and into the school record books.

Led by 800-meter state champ Murray Bingham, a senior-laden Wolves track and field racked up 11 medals at the class 2A state track and field meet at Mount Tahoma High School last week, earning not only Sequim High’s first track and field championship, but the first overall SHS boys team title in any sport.

The Wolves crowded the medal stand all weekend and locked up the team title with a pair of top-three efforts in the waning moments of the meet — senior Riley Cowan’s second-place finish in the javelin and a thirdplace finish by Sequim’s 4x400 relay team — as the Wolves amassed 61 team points, out-pacing Tumwater (46), Ridgefield (42) and Pullman (40).

The Wolves’ best team finish was fourth place (twice), in 2015 and 1987.

“We thought we had a shot before the season even started (based on) how we did last year, who we had coming back,” Sequim coach Brad Moore said.

Despite some early-season injuries to key athletes, Moore noted that they were able to get most of the Wolves in shape at the right time.

“They kept getting better,” Moore said. “They just kept working. It was that whole concept of perseverance, long term goals.”

After winning the Olympic League and West Central District team titles in the preceding weeks, Moore said, “We thought, ‘We could do this.’”

Bingham helped get the Wolves off to a fast start with a third-place finish in a 1,600-meter final on May 23, a race that he led until the final lap. He finished in 4:21.73, his second-fastest 1600 effort this season.

“Coach told me to kind of wait (on pushing the lead), to go 68-, 67- (second laps) but I took the third lap at 62,” Bingham said. “I just kind of burned out.”

“He got a little eager,” Moore said.

But Bingham had plenty left in the tank in the next two days, racing to a big win his preliminary 800 heat on May 24 before edging Lucas Cunningham of Sehome by a tenth of a second (1:55.94) in the 800 final a day later.

‘Lights-out performance’ Joining Bingham in the 800-meter finals was teammate Alec Shingleton, who placed fifth in the 800 (1:59) and added a second place finish in the 400-meter finals (50.01) Shingleton battled through injuries — including a hamstring issue on the season’s first day, Moore said — and sickness at the state meet to earn a pair of individual medals and helped the 4x400 relay place third.

“I’d be running once a week in practice and then in meets,” Shingleton said.

Doubled over following a first place finish in his preliminary heat of the 400, Shingleton said he was able to persevere through his illness thanks in part to experience, in part to having the team title in mind. “(It’s) that motivation to win for the team,”

BY MICHAEL DASHIELL Sequim Gazette

The road to the state 2A doubles title match looked awfully similar for Sequim’s Jessica Dietzman and Kalli Wiker. This time, however, the Wolves weren’t leaving without a championship.

DIETZMAN Dietzman, a junior, and Wiker, a sophomore, overcame a loss in a first-set tiebreaker to dominate the second and third sets to top Sammamish’s Katrina Kuntz and Nina Vongsaly (6-7, 6-2, 6-1) in the state K. WIKER 2A tennis championship in Seattle on May 25.

Their effort helped Sequim tie Columbia River for first place in team scoring — only the second team tennis championship in Sequim High’s history (2007).

“The girls played fantastic tennis and beat good teams all weekend,” Sequim coach Mark Textor said. “They are just really mentally tough and never give up.”

Their SHS boys counterparts also had a successful 2A tourney, with Thomas Hughes and Blake Wiker earning a seventh-place finish, and teammates Damon Little and Liam Payne placing eighth, helping Sequim’s boys team tie for fifth place overall.

Girls go 4-0

Sequim High freshman Riley Pyeatt races in the preliminaries of the 200 meters at the state 2A track and field championships in Tacoma on May 24. Pyeatt placed fifth in the 400-meter race.

he said. “It’s pretty exciting.”

Shingleton placed sixth in the 400 and ninth in the 800 at the 2018 state 2A finals, and placed 14th in the 800 as a sophomore in 2017.

“Before I was nervous at meets like this; I’m more confident coming into every single race,” Shingleton said.

Edging in to the 800 final on May 25 with the eighth-fastest time, Shingleton moved up three spots to finish in 1:59.21, then came within 0.12 of a second of a state title in the 400 that same day, trailing only Brian Le of Tumwater.

“A lights-out performance — it’s amazing what he did,” Moore said. “He just kept pouring it on.”

SHS senior Alec Shingleton races to a win in his preliminary heat of the 400 meters at the state 2A track and field championships in Tacoma on May 24. Shingleton went on to place second in the 400 finals and added a fifth-place finish in the 800.

Martin clipped the finish line in 14.910 seconds — 0.001 of a second behind Tyrus Thomas of Pullman.

It’s a finish that, a couple of weeks into the season, looked like an impossibility. The senior said that following multiple injuries — three in three weeks — that he decided to leave the team.

“I thought, ‘Maybe it’s just time to hang up the shoes’,” Martin said. A couple of his senior teammates convinced him to come back.

“I never took him off the team,” Moore said.

“When he asked to come back, there was no drama.”

Said Martin, following the 110 final, “I’m more than thankful.”

Photo finish Martin raced to a 15.36-second mark (secSequim’s Riley Martin capped his prep ca- ond) at the league meet and 14.99 seconds reer with a second place finish in the 110 high (also second) at districts before his runner-up hurdles on May 24, after placing third in the effort at state. same event at last year’s state final.

See TRACK, A-8

Dietzman and Wiker finished their season with an unblemished 22-0 mark and are 40-1 as doubles partners in the past two seasons.

“We have different skill sets: Kalli has more powerful ground strokes and I’ more like volleying, getting shots back (over the net),” Dietzman said. “The best way we play is I’m at the net and she ground-stroking.”

The Wolves’ pair won two matches to open the 2A tourney at Seattle’s Nordstrom Center on May 24. In the opener, Dietzman and Wiker swept Kerea Sinclair and Lillian Hyde of West Valley-Spokane 6-1, 6-1 before edging Bellingham’s Britney Butcher and Louli Ziels 6-4, 7-5 in the quarterfinals.

“Bellingham played a different style: they lobbed all the time,” Wiker said. “We had to stay aggressive and not play their style all the time.”

The next day, Dietman and Wiker were tested but eventually ousted Sydney Cameron and Jisu Han of W. F. West, 7-5, 6-3, to set up a rematch of last year’s 2A doubles finals against Kuntz and Vongsaly; the Sammamish duo took the 2018 title by a 6-3, 6-3 score.

“We were excited (for the rematch),” Wiker said. “We were ready to take on the challenge. We knew they were going to be good (but) we knew we could beat them.”

“At first I was kind of nervous — I did not want a repeat of last year,” Dietzman said.

“But talking with Kalli, it was, ‘OK, this is redemption. If we win this is huge. It shows how much we’ve grown.’”

By the second set, the Sequim duo was matching Kuntz and Vongsaly ground stroke for ground stroke, Wiker said.

“Their shots were hard (but) Jessica got everything back,” Wiker said.

GOLF

Sequim’s boys place second at state tournament Wiker ties for sixth, Jacobsen 10th Olympic Peninsula News Group

For the second consecutive season, Sequim’s boys golf capped a banner campaign with a second place finish at the class 2A state tournament.

Sequim’s Blake Wiker tied for sixth place, Paul Jacobsen tied for 10th and Ben Sweet tied for 21st as the Wolves racked up 83.5 points behind state champ Ridgefield at the state finals, held at Liberty Lake Golf Course in Liberty Lake, near Spokane.

Jacobsen held a share of the lead after the first day with eventual state champ Jordan Medcalf of Lynden, after both shot 73s. Jacobsen closed with a 2-under-par 33 on the back nine.

“He played the back nine extremely well and had four birdies,” Sequim coach Bill Shea said.

But the Sequim junior shot an 85 on the second day to slip back of the lead pack while Medcalf shot a 74 to edge Conrad Brown of BurlingtonEdison by two shots (147-149).

Wiker, a senior, shot rounds of 79 and 77 to finish in a three-way tie in sixth, nine shots back of Medcalf.

On day one, Wiker shot a 38 on the front nine holes but a rules decision led to a triple bogey on a back-nine hole and Wiker struggled a bit, Shea said. The Sequim 12th-grader rebounded to play the final four holes in 2-under-par.

“I really feel that (tournament) went great, all things concerned,” Wiker said. “It was a difficult course (but) to medal in my senior year was

amazing.”

Wiker said a highlight came on the first day when he found the green on the ninth hole from 200 yards out, com-

ing within six feet of the hole and sinking his birdie putt.

Sweet, a freshman, shot rounds of 79 and 85, also finishing in a three-way tie at 21st. His first day score was his lowest high school round.

“He’s been working really hard and practicing,” Shea said. “He’s striking the ball really well. His low tournament round of the year was 81, so we are super pleased with his performance.”

Senior Liam Payne missed the second day cut after shooting an 89 — four shots from the cutoff.

“Liam broke through and finally made it to state as a senior,” Shea said. “He struggled on the front nine and shot 50 but he really closed well and had a 39 on the back nine.”

Led by fourth-place finisher Kellen Bringhurst, Ridgefield saw six players make the second day cut and finished with 128 team points to outpace Sequim (83.5), Ephrata (63.5) and Burlington-Edison (62).

Defending state 2A champ Liberty (Issaquah) was fifth with 54.5 points.

In 2018, Sequim’s boys placed second behind Liberty.

“It’s crazy to finish second two years in a row,” Wiker said. “You always want to get first but … teams lost to both years were amazing. (Ridgefield was) great; we did all we could have done.”

On the girls’ side, Sequim High senior Brittany Gale tied for 60th overall after shooting a 101, six shots off the second day cut.

Wolves drop 2 close games at state tourney

BY MICHAEL CARMAN Olympic Peninsula News Group

The state softball tournament is not the place for bats to turn cold and mistakes to be made.

Unfortunately for Sequim (15-8), that’s what happened at the class 2A state tournament at Carlon Park in Selah on May 24.

The Wolves were hard-luck, 6-4 losers to Selah in their state opener before falling 6-3 to Tumwater in a loser-out contest.

“We just picked a bad time

to go flat for a little bit, that’s what it came down to,” Sequim coach Tim Lusk said.

“At districts we had a team average of about .535 and at state we were right around .200,” Lusk said.

“When you get to that level and you struggle to hit and you make a few mistakes in the field it can come back and hurt you.”

Lusk felt his team could have won both games.

“The first game we scored Sequim’s LeeAnn Raney pitches at the state 2A tournament. four runs and gave up four Photo by Mark Krulish/Kitsap News Group that we shouldn’t have; we should have won that one 4-2,” Selah broke open a 4-4 tie ble to left field in the top of the Lusk said. with a two-run line drive dou- sixth inning to send Sequim to

Auspicious starts, strong finishes Cowan improved on his fourth-place finish at last year’s meet with a 176-foot, 6-inch throw in the javelin finals on May 25. The SHS senior posted the throw early on, which proved fruitful after the weather turned worse in the late afternoon.

“That (throw) put pressure on everybody else,” Moore said.

The Wolves will graduate Sparks, Opdyke, Isabelle Dennis, Latisha Robideau and Ashleigh Cate.

“The seniors are a really good group of girls; it was a tearjearker when we lost,” Lusk said.

The team does have a talented crop returning led by freshmen LeeAnn Raney, Lili Fili, Christy Grubb and sophomores Jayla Julmist and Kiana Robideau.

“I had three of the freshmen with me driving home and we were already putting a lineup together,” Lusk said.

Wolf of the Week: Alec Shingleton

Track

“My overal goal was sub-15 (seconds); I was happy to get there,” Martin said. “(At state the goal was to) just run and have fun.”

Teammate Fischer Jensen, another Sequim senior, earned a spot in the 300 hurdles final on May 25, where he placed eighth in 41.80.

Breakout season Sequim also got a pair of top-eight performances out of junior Darren Salazar, who raced to a fifth-place finish in the 200-meter finals (22.86) and sixth in the 100-meter sprint (11.43).

“He’s just lights-out; he was a stud for us,” Moore said.

“At the start of the season we didn’t expect him to be in the finals of the 100, but maybe the 200.”

Salazar said he was able to improve his times over the season thanks to running cross country in the fall and doing weight training and intervals in the winter months.

“It’s definitely an improvement from last year,” said Salazar, who placed sixth in the 200 at districts in 2018.

He also improved his 100 best from 2018 by a half-second and his 200 mark by nearly a half-second.

Along with Bingham, Shingleton and Logan Laxson, Salazar helped Sequim’s 4x400 relay team place third, and get the Wolves’ 4x100 relay team to the finals.

He said he switched to running the anchor leg of the 4x400 relay this season.

“It’s terrifying,” Salazar said of running the anchor leg, in between his 100- and 200-meter preliminary races. “It’s all about having that mental strength.”

the loser’s bracket.

Senior Raelynn Opdyke homered and doubled for the Wolves in a loser-out contest against Tumwater, but the Thunderbirds triumphed.

“Hitting a home run at state was a great way to go out,” Lusk said. “We had been talking about (designated hitting) for her, but I thought she was due and she came through.

“Bobbi Sparks also played an excellent defensive game at shortstop.”

Lusk added, “I’m very pleased with the girls. They never quit and they held their heads high.”

Class: Senior Team: SHS boys track & field Head coach: Brad Moore Reason for selection: “Alec took second in the 400, fifth in the 800 and third in the 4x400 relay to help the Sequim boys capture the 2A state championship for the first time SHINGLETON in school history.”

Sequim’s 4x100 relay team of Salazar, Laxson, Jarrett Allen and Keeshawn Whitney looked to be out of the proverbial and literal running of the final after placing seventh in their preliminary heat on May 24. But three teams in the second heat (Bremerton, Lindbergh, Mountlake Terrace) were disqualified for running out of their zone, and the Wolves edged in with the eighth-fastest mark.

A day later, with freshman Theo McMurray taking Salazar’s place in the lineup to help the junior stay fresh for his 100- and 200-meter finals, an eight-place Sequim relay team (44.70) was bumped to sixth place after two more teams — Cheney and Franklin Pierce — were disqualified.

Sequim senior pole vaulter Liam Byrne got a tough luck finish to his prep career after he sprained an ankle during a training session in Seattle just days before the state tournament.

Byrne said he took off a bit too far back on one attempt and landed on the slope of the vault mat, hearing a “pop” as he turned his ankle.

The SHS senior could only look on in sweats and a protective boot as other vaulters vied for top places at the state meet. Byrne, who said he may try to walk on to Portland

State University’s track team where he will study mechanical engineering next fall, had a season-best mark of 13-0.

“I was a little worried (about a state title chance) after Liam got hurt,” Moore said. “The way it looked, he could place well in the vault. I was hopeful the sprain wasn’t too bad.

“I thought, ‘What if we are close (but don’t win)?’ That would have really bothered (Liam) too.”

As it turned out, the Wolves had enough points across the board to take the team title.

What was Byrne’s poor luck turned out to be good fortune for River Ridge senior Matthew Jenkins, a state meet alternate whose coach said Jenkins didn’t know he’d be eligible to vault until the day of the meet.

With Byrne’s scratch, Jenkins was able to compete and tied for second overall with a 13-0 mark, just six inches back of state champ Levi Williams of Columbia River.

Two medals for SHS girls Sequim High freshman Riley Pyeatt placed fifth in the 400-meter run (58.88) and senior Elizabeth Sweet capped her prep career with a sixthplace finish in the pole vault (10-0) as Sequim’s girls placed 34th as a team.

Sweet lost about four week of training to injuries during the

season, Moore said.

“She had some very lofty goals this season,” the Sequim coach said of Sweet. “We finally got to where she looked good vaulting at the end of the season. It was just not enough to get 10-6 (but) I’m proud of her.

She worked really hard and was able to turn it around at the end of the season.”

Pyeatt qualified for two state races, with a spot in the 400 finals and 12th overall at 200 meters.

Despite success at longer distances — Pyeatt placed 13th at the class 2A cross country final in November, on a 3.1-mile course — the ninth-grader said she uses that time to get in shape for winter (basketball) and spring (track) seasons.

“I’ve been very successful in the events I chose,” Pyeatt said.

She said breaking 59 seconds in the 400 was her highlight — she did it three times this season — and hopes to clip that time to the low 58s or better in coming years.

Sequim High sophomore Abby Schroeder followed her district high jump championship with a 14th place finish at state after clearing 4-8 on May 23.

Olympic League squads represented well at state, with Port Angeles and North Kitsap tying for second place behind 2A state champ Bellingham.

Boys teams go 2-2 Hughes and Blake Wiker opened their tourney with a 6-3, 6-0 win over Ephrata’s Clay Johns and Nathan Todaro before getting knocked out of the championship round by Bellingham’s Owen Morrison and Colm Schaefer in the the quarterfinals, 6-1, 7-5.

Hughes and Wiker rebounded to beat Wapato’s Humberto Hinojosa and Naujae Pineda 7-5, 6-1 on May 25 to reach the fourth/ seventh-place match, but fell 6-4, 6-3 to Bellingham’s Noah Giese and Ben Grabau.

“We were right in it the second day to placing higher,” Wiker said.

Little and Payne dropped their opener on May 24, a 6-1, 7-6 decision to Columbia River’s Wilson Keller and Nate Kessi, but came back to win a three-set match a 6-4, 2-6, 6-4 against Washington’s Ariano Chavez and Kyle Whitemarsh.

The Sequim pair defeated R.A. Long’s Ethan Chung and Brady Anderson 7-5, 6-1 on May 25 to reach the fifth/

eighth place match, where they dropped a 6-0, 6-2 decision to Pullman’s Andy He and Tim HUGHES Watts.

Hughes a n d W i ker finish the season — which started in the fall — with a 16-2 mark as B. WIKER doubles partners, while Little and Payne end the campaign with a 19-7 record.

“It was awesome to have Damon and Liam there (at state) too,” Wiker said.

Wiker, who had a busy week with playing in the state 2A golf finals on May 20 and 21 before playing at the state tennis prep finals just three days later, said he and Hughes have similar skills and developed a good repertoire in discussing strategy before and during each match.

The duo have been playing together for the past three seasons and qualified for the state tourney in 2018.

“We both serve and volley really well,” Wiker said.

IMMEDIATE DENTURES OR SHOULD I WAIT? Dr. Brooksby, I am afraid that I am going to lose all of my teeth and my dentist says that I have to wait for three months before I get new teeth. Help!

Horrified Dear Horrified, The only reason I can see for this type of scenario is if you have told your dentist that you want to keep the cost as low as possible, and you do not want to hassle with your teeth anymore. If this is not the case, you may want to consider a second opinion.

Usually if the teeth need to be removed, we make new teeth that go in at the time the others are lost. This way you never go without teeth. The supporting gums shrink as the bone remodels and the teeth get looser. We refit them and tighten them up to make them more comfortable. After about six months, we make new, better fitting teeth and substantially improve your smile.

The likely reason the dentist wanted you to go without teeth for three months is to avoid the cost of the first set of teeth and the refittings.

The disadvantage of this approach is that you are left socially crippled for months and then you do not adapt as easily to the new teeth. The first set of dentures are training dentures. They can also be used later as spares in case something breaks and you need something to wear.

ALTERNATIVES TO DENTURES There are also times when some of the remaining teeth can be saved. Often there are a multitude of options that are never presented or explored. If you look at our website at drbrooksby.com, you can find more information on the other options that are available. These may include partial dentures, overdentures, bridges and dental implants.

There is a saying “penny wise and pound foolish.” For the slightly higher cost why not have something that will last a long time, require minimal upkeep and be easy to repair?

Dr. L. Scott Brooksby was selected as one of the Best Dentists in America for 2009 - 2014 by the Consumer Research Council of America and now he lives and practices in Sequim.

If you would like to meet Dr. Brooksby or if you have any kind of dental concern and would like a fresh look at what choices are available to you, call to schedule a free consultation and let’s see what we can do to help you. When you call, you’ll be talking to Dr. Brooksby.

Dr. Brooksby does all adult dentistry, including checkups, cleanings, fillings, extractions, crowns, bridges, dentures and implants. Call now to meet us and get an exam!

Kelly and brothers Noal and Nick did previously represent the U.S. at the 50th-annual German-American Red Cross Competition.

The Yarnes lived in Germany for a few years as Todd, Kelly’s father, served in the U.S. Army. They came back to Sequim, however, and Kelly graduated from Sequim High School in 1999.

Klahhane Gymnastics summer registration

10 years of Banana Belt Kelly

Registration for Klahhane Gymnastics’ summer gymnastics and ninja classes are now open. Summer classes run Monday through Thursday, July 1-Aug. 22. Gymnastics classes are available for ages 2-14, and ninja classes for ages 4-13. The summer schedule allows flexible pre-registration on a class-by-class basis; parents can create an individualized schedule around other summer activities.

All classes have minimum and maximum limits. Early registration is suggested for best choice of class times.

After graduation, Kelly has worked continuously and met a lot of people during her time at McDonald’s and Safeway.

“I think just about everyone in Sequim knows Kelly,” Todd said. “She’s a real social butterfly.”

That sociability proved to be a good fit for Kelly’s entrepreneurial effort to open her own store — Banana Belt Kelly, named after her favorite bread and Sequim’s banana belt.

After hosting a farm stand at the corners of Secor and Riverside Roads for a few years, Kelly moved into her father’s former woodshop in 2009.

With help from her family, the community and the state’s Department of Vocational Rehabilitation, Kelly looks to celebrate her 10th anniversary this year.

Laurie sits with Kelly to discuss what to purchase often and the state sends someone to help with various tasks each Friday for a few hours.

Kelly said her favorite part is “making sure things are really good and that people like it.”

Banana Belt Kelly, 481 Riverside Road, features an array of goods including Kelly’s lavender products, home goods, Laurie’s paintings, Todd’s woodworking and more.

Kelly’s parents say she is less worried about selling things and more interested in meeting people.

Kelly learned to make lavender products like sachets from former Olympic Lavender owner Mary Borland Liebsch, who years prior worked with Kelly in Helen Haller Elementary School’s special education program.

During the Sequim Lavender Festival, Kelly would wear long dresses and sun hats at the farm, which many people captured on film and in painted pictures earning her the nickname as “The Lavender Lady.”

Today the Yarnes operate the Riverside House Guest Lodge next to Banana Belt Kelly, which is open 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Tuesdays-Saturdays.

Coincidentally, their home is near Rantz’s child home and they believe he might have even done some work on their farmhand decades ago.

Inslee’s budget may invite GOP challenge In the final round of bill signing on May 21, Gov. Jay Inslee unleashed a one-two combo of executive power the likes of which state lawmakers had never seen.

First, he vetoed a sentence repeated in six successive sections of the transportation budget, each time poisoning a different bucket of money for transit.

Then, he ordered $175 million be shifted from five highway projects to removing and replacing culverts impeding the passage of salmon to Guest spawning grounds, and fish to the Opinion ocean.

Though separate and unrelated Jerry Cornfield actions, each appears to set a precedent. Inslee’s top advisers last week could not cite another example of a governor vetoing a single sentence in a budget bill or asserting executive authority to redirect such a large sum of transportation dollars absent involvement of lawmakers.

The veto involved grant programs supporting bus service, vanpool programs and other multi-modal projects.

Under Inslee, laws have been passed requiring providers of public transit services to stop using gasoline-powered vehicles and switch to fueled by electricity “In this very rare ones or biofuel or other alterand unusual natives.

In the bill, lawmakers circumstance I wrote that “Fuel type may not be a factor in the have no choice grant selection process.” but to veto a This would allow grants go to entities using single sentence in to gas-fueled vehicles in deseveral subsections fiance of the alternative fuels law. to prevent a The budget, with the language, passed nearly constitutional unanimously in both violation and to chambers.

Inslee could have veprevent a forced toed each section — a violation of state typical response for problematic language — but law.” that would have wiped out $200 million of tranGov. Jay Inslee sit funding. He wasn’t going to be stymied either.

“In this very rare and unusual circumstance I have no choice but to veto a single sentence in several subsections to prevent a constitutional violation and to prevent a forced violation of state law,” he wrote in his veto message.

Lawmakers’ options to push back are limited. Trying to override the veto is out since this year’s session is done. A lawsuit could be filed to determine if Inslee exceeded the veto powers bestowed upon him in the state constitution.

Sen. Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens, chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee and the lead budget writer, said he understood the governor’s motivations and had questions about the legality but didn’t expect a challenge.

Republicans, however, might.

This sets a precedent if there is no pushback, said Sen. Curtis King, R-Yakima, the ranking Republican on the transportation panel.

With the culverts, the state is under a federal court order to remove hundreds of barriers by 2030, a task with an estimated price tag of $3.8 billion.

Lawmakers earmarked $100 million for the effort in the two-year transportation budget. Inslee’s action boosts the spending to $275 million, the amount he proposed in December but was unable to get agreement on with lawmakers through the 105-day session.

“This is a matter of urgency. And not just because the courts have told us so,” Inslee said Tuesday. “The fate of our salmon is intrinsically tied to our tribes, our orca, our economy and our very identity.”

Inslee is diverting the money from five projects. These are not savings but dollars that will not be spent by June 30, the end of the fiscal year.

Under existing law, the Department of Transportation can move around a couple hundred thousand dollars between projects, and then let lawmakers know later.

With $175 million, the governor’s budget director needs to consult with transportation committee leaders before moving a dime. An agency spokeswoman said that will happen.

That doesn’t alleviate the lawmakers’ concerns.

“We do have to pay for those culverts.” said Hobbs, who proposed an ill-fated carbon tax to cover the costs.

“What I am worried about is the precedent this sets that the executive branch can transfer so much money without legislative approval. And where will the money come from?”

King added: “What are we not going to do when we put that money to culverts?”

Inslee’s politically macho move brings to mind an exerting of executive power by President Donald Trump when he sought to go around Congress to fund the border wall.

Inslee deemed it a “legally dubious” maneuver at the time and chided Trump for acting like “some kind of emperor.”

David Postman, Inslee’s chief of staff, said last week — equating the two uses of executive power “is not a sophisticated view.”

“It is vastly different. We have the authority” to spend the money, he said. “It is not contrary to what the Legislature has said. It is a different amount.”

A big difference. When combined with removing a few words, it is a rare political knockdown for the governor.

C a l i for n i a’s droughts have everything to do with Water dry vs. wet condiMatters tions, but as WashAnn Soule ington state law defines “drought conditions” it has nothing to do with dry weather.

State lawmakers are responsible for setting criteria on the availability of disaster relief funding for any type of emergency. A drought emergency is to be declared when (1) the water supply for an area is below 75 percent of normal, and (2) the water shortage is likely to create “undue hardships” for water users.

California has a meteorological definition of drought and Washington has a hydrological definition. The state Department of Ecology is responsible for identifying conditions that meet the legal definition of drought so its staff closely monitors winter weather patterns and measures snowpack while consulting other state and federal monitoring agencies.

The Dungeness Snotel station is one of four in the Olympic Mountains and 30+ in the state. Data from all four Olympic Snotel sites are generally reported for the whole range rather than one basin at a time.

This makes good sense because the Dungeness Snotel is at about 4,000 feet elevation, more than 1,000 feet lower than the top of the watershed. The historical record for the Dungeness station since installation in 1999 shows that snow is normally melted out by early May, compared to early or mid-June for higher-elevation stations.

Amazingly, and to the disappointment of skiers, the dump of snow we got in Sequim was not predictive of what happened high in the mountains. Unlike storms from the coast that dump their load up high and leave us in the rain shadow with an attractive dusting of snow, this storm was like the “lake effect” variety that hit Chicago hard after building up moisture over the Great Lakes. Our big snowstorm came from the north, crossed the relatively warm Strait, and dumped its snow load at low elevations.

I am in full agreement – it is hard to believe that such a snowy winter in Sequim didn’t create a bounty of snow in the mountains and replenish our glaciers.

In the Pacific Northwest, drought is not about recent rainfall or the bounty of flowers and spring growth, but instead it’s about the snow you don’t see – or see less of every day – in the mountains. The state definition is consistent with this. Hydrologists and other snowpack watchers find limited delight in “unseasonably” sunny and warm weather in April and May, because it means the snowpack is melting and that could mean trouble by July or August for certain populations, human and otherwise.

The undue hardship listed as the second criteria in the state’s definition of drought is that anticipated for late summer by farmers who could run out of irrigation water and communities whose water supply depends on snowmelt.

Less politically visible are the salmon whose water supply also depends on snowmelt. Indeed, many facts in our world are not visible and obvious, but that doesn’t mean they’re not real.

Hydrology-ecology connections As mentioned in the last “Geek Moment,” the savings account for Water Year 2019 reached its maximum balance by the end of April … when snow and ice in the mountains stopped

accumulating. Saved precipitation in the form of ice determines what the Dungeness River flow levels will do during the heat of summer.

And how goes the River flow, so goes aquifer recharge, well water supplies, wetlands and creeks.

The US Geological Survey estimates that a quarter of the water that recharges our aquifer comes from Dungeness River seepage. When the total amount of water carried in one year by the Dungeness River drops, then the fraction seeping into the aquifer also drops.

Or, if that total volume comes in a few concentrated torrents from big storms rather than less intense rainfall spread throughout winter, then the flow velocity hinders infiltration and more of that rain will run off into the Strait.

Gardeners are very familiar with the difference between a good, persistent “soaking” rain and a brief squall that erodes the topsoil and runs off into the nearest ditch.

As the climate warms, trends indicate that the total number of inches of rain we get isn’t likely to decrease, but the way we get it is likely to transition to larger and warmer storms in winter – and drier springs, summers and falls.

This is fortunate for sun lovers but unfortunate for the natural systems dependent on the seasonal hydrologic patterns that have evolved over thousands of years. With less ice and snow contributing to snowmelt and the annual snowpack melting sooner, streams run lower and incoming salmon don’t have as much wetted streambed habitat to spawn in as they evolved with.

As we and Californians know all too well, increasing dryness also makes our traditionally verdant landscapes susceptible to wildfire. And that’s a different emergency declaration …

It comes down to this: many problems in our world have no obvious solution, but climate change is not one of them.

Geek moment City of Sequim encourages water conservation starting now, especially outdoors.

We have information about Washington’s drought on our website (www.sequimwa. gov), including ideas for saving water, energy and money all at the same time.

For those with private wells concerned about drought risk, the Washington Department of Health suggests learning about your source from your well log or pump installer.

The following factors may indicate higher risk of pump failure: 1. Shallow well (less than 50 feet deep).

2. Low flow rate/capacity/yield listed on well log (less than 10 gallons per minute).

3. If the well pump has sputtered or failed in the past.

In all cases conservation would be wise. To track your situation you could measure and record your well water level at the same time each year, or once each season. Here is a fact sheet on measuring the water level yourself or with a contractor: www.doh.wa.gov/portals/1/ Documents/pubs/331-428.pdf.

For the 2019 Water Year (started Oct. 1, 2018): • Rain in Sequim through May 27 at the Sequim 2E weather station (sea level): Total rainfall = about 13.5 inches.

• River flow at the USGS gage on the Dungeness (Mile 11.2): Currently = 754 cfs.

Range for the past month = 289-944 cfs – a little higher than normal.

• Flow at Bell Creek entering Carrie Blake Park: trickle or none; Bell Creek at Washington Harbor= flow generally 2-3 cfs in spring.

Bedinger memorial to be removed

BY PAUL GOTTLIEB Peninsula Daily News

Kim Bedinger has accepted the fate of a flower-filled memorial at Morse Creek on U.S. Highway 101 where her 19-year-old daughter, Brooke, died in a motorcycle wreck almost a year ago.

John Wynands, state Department of Transportation (DOT) Olympic Region administrator, said the marker must be removed this summer in accordance with DOT policy on unauthorized roadside objects.

“I knew that it was coming,” Bedinger said last week.

Memorials can be replaced by a standard commemorative sign paid for by families whose loved one is being remembered, Wynands said.

The DOT gets about three to five calls a month from motorists saying the memorial is a distraction at a sharply curved portion at the bottom of the hilly roadway where other fatalities have occurred, Wynands said.

“Anything we can do to reduce driver distraction,” he said. “Driver distraction goes down, safety goes up. That is our focus.”

Bedinger, a Sequim resident, said she did not want the memorial marker that’s been in place since summer 2018 to hinder the concentration of drivers traveling along the wreck-prone curve east of Port Angeles, negating its purpose.

“I don’t want it to be a distraction where it causes more accidents,” she said.

Wynands said it is likely that safety improvements on the curve at Morse Creek where Bedinger died June 21, 2018 — and which the Bedinger family and their supporters lobbied state lawmakers to fund — will be constructed beginning in summer 2021.

Wynands said the $5 million project is in the top 10 safety projects statewide.

The project would entail building a curb-high, boulevard median-barrier between the eastbound and westbound lanes to buffer against serious wrecks.

DOT officials, including regional administrators, are meeting in the coming weeks to review the statewide list, DOT

Kim and Don Bedinger, parents of Brooke Bedinger, look over a roadside shrine on Friday that was erected in memory of their 19-year-old daughter, Brooke, who was killed while riding her motorcycle near the spot where U.S. Highway 101 crosses Morse Creek east of Port Angeles. Keith Thorpe/Peninsula Daily News

spokeswoman Linda Robson said Friday in an email.

Surveying for the project will begin this summer, Wynands said.

Wynands said funding is available in DOT’s safety program.

“The only question is, is it programmed for that summer,” he said.

State lawmakers appropriated $1 million for design, pre-permitting and permitting for the project during the recently c0ncluded legislative session.

However, $4 million more is needed for construction that’s available in the agency’s safety program.

Wynands said as a top-10 safety project statewide, the project’s chances for funding are high.

“Our plan is to design it and be ready to build it in summer 2021,” he said.

Wynands said the commemorative signs that replace roadside memorials say “please drive safely” and “in memory of” with Bedinger’s name and a date, and cost between $500 and $700.

“Generally speaking, the private party pays for the sign, so the family will pay for the sign itself,” Wynands said.

“We will be doing the work, and we can install it. The exact location is to be determined.”

He said highway memorials to loved ones are allowed to remain for about a year before they are removed.

Man charged with FREDS Guns burglary recovered.

The brands of handguns stolen were Glock, Taurel, Walther, Sig Sauer and Beretta.

The size ranged from 9mm to .45 caliber.

Espinoza said federal prosecutors have not discussed with the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s office the possibility of filing charges in federal court. Federal officials have said the Department of Justice is reviewing the case.

Maillet has arrests in Washington state, Massachusetts, Montana, California, Florida, Missouri, Louisiana and New Hampshire.

Federal court records show that Maillet was cited twice in 2017 for crossing the United States’ northern border illegally, once in Washington and once in Maine.

Officials said they are unaware of any felony convictions of Maillet.

Investigators with OPNET

and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives interviewed Maillet on May 15 and searched a backpack that he had with him when he was arrested.

They found a price tag on a box of ammunition from a store that had been burglarized in Skagit County on May 3.

In that theft, surveillance video shows a man repeatedly backing a truck into a glass window of the store and stealing about 19 guns and ammunition.

“The method of entry at the (FREDS Guns) burglary and the Skagit County burglary are identical, both gun stores had vehicles smash into the buildings to gain access inside,” court records say. “Both had firearms and ammunition stolen.”

He has not appeared in court for the Skagit County burglary.

A 38-year-old Sequim man has been sentenced to more than four years in prison for the second-degree molestation of a 4-year-old girl.

Clallam County Superior Court Judge Brent Basden on May 22 sentenced Brian Russell Dilley to 50 months of confinement and three years of community custody.

Basden rejected the recommendation by the prosecuting attorney’s office that Dilley receive 30 months of confinement and three years of community service.

The standard sentence range based on Dilley’s offender score and the seriousness of the offense was 15-20 months and the maximum sentence 10 years, according to court documents.

Dilley, charged Sept. 6 with first-degree molestation, pleaded guilty April 10 to the lesser charge.

“I am unaware that Mr. Dilley has shown any remorse for his crimes nor taken full responsibility for his actions,” according to an April 14 pre-sentence report by Community Corrections Officer Kasey Ulin.

“The severity of his actions have caused damage which could last a lifetime.”

Ulin said Dilley held a position of trust with the victim, now 7, who was 5 when she reported the incident in June 2017.

The molestation took place between July 1, 2016, and May 31, 2017.

A man whose DNA and fingerprints were found in FREDS Guns after the April 13 burglary of the store near Sequim has been charged with stealing an agricultural frontloader, smashing it through the store’s wall and stealing 24 guns.

Joey A. Maillet, 38, who also is suspected in the burglary of a Skagit County gun store, was charged on May 23 with first-degree burglary, 24 counts of theft of a firearm, first-degree theft and two counts of first-degree malicious mischief.

Maillet will be arraigned in Clallam County Superior Court at 1:30 p.m. Friday, May 31.

Maillet was arrested Monday while he was at the Snohomish County jail, where he had been

booked on a second-degree burglary case unrelated to FREDS Guns.

He was then transferred to MAILLET Clallam County.

Maillet, who has no known ties to Clallam County, remained in the Clallam County jail Thursday in lieu of $350,000 bail. Records say he is a U.S. and Canadian citizen.

Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Jesse Espinoza said last week that though a report from the Olympic Peninsula Narcotics Enforcement Team (OPNET) said 26 guns were stolen from the store, the list he was provided has 24 guns.

Espinoza said if information about additional stolen guns is provided to the Prosecuting Attorney’s Office the charges could be amended later.

Bedinger and her family are planning to adopt the section of highway where Brook died, she said.

They hope to spend time there six or eight times a year, picking up roadside refuse and keeping it clean, she said.

About 250 crashes occurred from 20072019 on the sweeping, uphill-downhill curve between East Kolonels Way and Scenic View Drive, which is the entrance to a rest stop. Those crashes included four vehicular fatalities and seven motorcycle wrecks.

The improvement project is the top safety project of its kind in the Olympic Region, which includes seven counties and 1.7 million residents.

The Bedinger family is sponsoring a Barriers for Brooke memorial concert June 1 at the Sequim unit of the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Olympic Peninsula to raise money for scholarships.

The concert at the Sequim facility at 400 W. Fir St., will feature several musicians as well as a performance by the Sequim High School Choir. Bedinger was a Sequim High School graduate.

Concert tickets are $15 for ages 18 and older and $10 for ages 6-17. Children ages 5 and under will be admitted free of charge.

A car show and access to vendors including food concessions are free beginning at 3 p.m. before the concert, which will start at 5 p.m.

T he a n nu a l Backyard Birding series continues at 10 a.m. Saturday, June 1, at the Dungeness River Audubon Center at Railroad Bridge Park, 2151 W. Hendrickson Road.

The ninth in a 10-part series, the June 1 presentation is “Birds Out of the Nest” by Ken Wiersema. This program describes a parent bird’s role in protecting, feeding, and teaching its offspring — and how various species differ in their roles as they raise their young.

Attendees will learn how food needs change during early bird development, and how to make residential properties less hazardous against the vulnerabilities of young fledglings.

Hosted by members of the Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society, the series offers local residents information about observing and protecting wild bird life in the region.

Backyard Birding may be taken either as individual classes or in a series. Cost of each session is $5. Admission is free for anyone younger than 18. For participants completing five sessions in the series, Olympic Peninsula Audubon Society offers a free, one-year membership.

The idea for the show came about, organizers say, when state-of-the art storage units were installed in the Artifact Storage Facility. Items had to be removed from the original old storage and temporarily stored in Lincoln School, and when volunteers saw the collection it was decided that the public should have the opportunity to see the pieces as well.

A highlight of the exhibit, event organizers say, is a 13-foot-by-3-foot painting of the Port Angeles Gun Club, completed by Thomas Guptill in 1938 (the club is still located

OTA’s ‘Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks’ unites unlikely friends

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Perceived polar opposites learn to dance in unison for Olympic Theatre Arts’ latest show “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks.”

Cheryl DiPietro’s Lily, wife of a Southern Baptist minister, looks to take up dance lessons in her new St. Petersburg Beach, Fla., condo where she meets gay instructor Michael, played by Michael Sickles.

Director Greg Scherer says the hook is that their acquaintanceship begins as a professional arrangement and you wonder what’s to come next of their interactions.

“It’s about avoiding loneliness and friendship,” he said.

“Ultimately, it’s what this community is

about — staying active and making friends later in life,” Sickles said. “I’m not even 40 and it’s hard to make new friends.”

For two weekends, “Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks” runs June 7-16 in OTA’s Gathering Hall.

Sickles and DiPietro said the play investigates people’s biases and stereotypes well.

“It’s super-relevant,” Sickles said.

“I like how they both come into it with biases and he has his own preconceived biases of how conservatives are and how he’s going to be received in a conservative house. He’s already on edge, ready to lie, ready to shield, lie about who he is to save his job.”

‘Legally Blonde’ earns five noms from 5th Avenue Winners to be named in Seattle June 3

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

Along with wowing locals for three weekends of shows for “Legally Blonde,” Sequim High School’s Operetta Club also impressed evaluators for The 5th Avenue Theatre Awards.

Sequim garnered five nominations for Maddy Dietzman performing as Elle Woods for Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role, Damon Little as Grandmaster Chad for Outstanding Performance by an Actor in a Featured Ensemble Role, and the show’s stagehands for Outstanding Stage Crew. Sequim’s operetta also received two Honorable Mentions for Outstanding Music Direction and Orchestra.

Dietzman, a 15-year-old sophomore, said she’s really honored to be nominated.

“I can’t believe it,” she said.

Director Brendan Chambers and Assistant Director Maggie Bulkley said they couldn’t be happier with the way the show turned out.

“It exceeded our expectations in every way and it ended up being a hit in the Sequim community,” they said. “We are so proud of our students who worked so hard to put this fast paced and high energy show together. We are ecstatic to be recognized by the 5th Avenue with nominations and honorable mentions.”

The awards go into their 17th year honoring high

school musicals across Washington state during the 2018/19 school year similarly to honoring high school athletes.

Announcements came out last week from the Seattle theater company that evaluators saw 128 productions from 106 schools with more than 11,000 participating students.

Students and schools received 167 nominations across 21 categories with 178 honorable mentions and 30 special honors, organizers said.

This is Little’s second nomination in a row after receiving an Honorable Mention for last year’s operetta “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” as Bud Frump for Outstanding Actor in a Supporting Role. That show was nominated for six awards including Best Chorus and Best Costumes/Costume Design along with four Honorable Mentions.

Sequim’s operetta of “Legally Blonde” follows the 2001 movie except as a musical with Woods seeking to win back her boyfriend Warner by enrolling at Harvard Law School.

In the school’s history, Sequim has been nominated dozens of times and won four times — Outstanding Scenic Design for 2017’s “Seven Brides for Seven Brothers; Outstanding Costume Design for “Wizard of Oz” in 2008; and twice in 2007 for

Cryogenic Entertainment brings game development to Sequim ‘Ferret Scoundrels’ is company’s first release

BY CONOR DOWLEY Sequim Gazette

Video game development is something not often associated with Sequim, but thanks to Cryogenic Entertainment that may start to change.

Locals Tony Dorito and Caleb Koch have built their company from the ground up, and now their work is starting to pay off. Their first game has been released on Steam’s Early Release program, with “Ferret Scoundrels” becoming available for purchase on May 9.

The Early Release program was started by Bellevue-based Valve Entertainment as a way to help support smaller developers and allow them to sell games in a playable-but-unfinished state. Developers can get more testing and player feedback than they’d normally be able to pursue, given their limited funding (as compared to major game companies).

Who: Tony Dorito & Caleb Koch, Cryogenic Entertainment What: “Ferret Scoundrels” video game Online: www.ferretscoundrels.com Between that valuable feedback and the additional funding the game purchases bring, smaller game developers can more easily finish products at a higher level.

Cryogenic Entertainment is hoping that “Ferret Scoundrels” is the next such success story, Dorito and Koch said, and they’re willing to put in the work to make sure it happens.

“We’ve already gotten a lot of good feedback,” Koch said, “both in terms of what people like and what we need to work on.”

He added, “We’ve learned a lot of lessons from other Early Release program games.”

Koch added he and Dorito want to stay as transparent as possible with their development process, including publishing a road map of sorts on their website for fans to follow.

“Ferret Scoundrels” is a game of the high seas, with players taking the role of a ferret captain in charge of an independent ship in pursuit of gold and glory. Things don’t exactly go to plan early on in the game, and players are left in charge of a rather less than glorious vessel as they start to claw their way back to where they were before, starting by chasing down a mysterious treasure.

Sailing around a sea dotted by islands both wild and settled, players haul cargo around to complete missions – and sometimes have the option to engage in a little piracy by attacking other ships in the area. But larger pirate vessels or ships representing more legitimate authorities are always around as well, forcing players to be cautious and aware.

The Cryogenic Entertainment duo are hoping to have the game fully completed by the end of the summer, though they said working as such a small development team their timeline may be a little aggressive.

OPA takes to the stage

Students entertain with ‘Singin’ In The Rain Jr.’ “It’s an incredible experience to be part of. We’re a funky group and we put on a great play.”

BY CONOR DOWLEY Sequim Gazette

Cadence Puhrmann

Lina Lamont and Don Lockwood (Mia Coffman and Dean Rynearson) respond to questions from Dora Bailey (Cadence Puhrmann), on right, during a rehearsal of the Olympic Peninsula Academy’s production of “Singin’ In The Rain Jr.” They open the night of May 31, and have two additional performances on June 1. Sequim Gazette photo by Conor Dowley

‘Singin’ In The Rain Jr.’

What: Olympic Peninsula Academy student production When: 7 p.m. Friday, May 31; 1:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday, June 1 Where: Sequim High School auditorium, 533 N. Sequim Ave. Tickets: By donation (at door) on some of the notes Don has to be able to reach in his songs.

One actress, Cadence Puhrmann, expanded a bit more on how OPA and the theatre program have impacted her life. She joined OPA because of bullying issues that she and her brother were experiencing, and she told the Gazette that theatre has “helped me find myself, both in the part

and off the stage.”

Puhrmann plays Dora Bailey, a gossip columnist who in “Singin’ in the Rain” is used as a kind of announcer of shifts in the plot and what’s happening on stage.

“It’s an incredible experience to be part of,” Puhrmann said of being part of “Singin’ In The Rain Jr.” “We’re a funky group and

we put on a great play,” she said.

Canepa, the production’s director, couldn’t help but sing the praises of her students, talking about how much fun they’ve had in the production in OPA’s second year of doing “Broadway Jr.” productions. Last year, OPA students performed “Mary Poppins Jr.” and she said her students have enjoyed something that’s a little bit more serious.

“These kids have worked together magnificently,” Canepa said. “Even when someone makes a mistake, everyone rallies around them and keeps them from beating themselves up.

That’s so valuable to learn, because it’s so needed with friends and in the community.”

Canepa and Nielsen said they are proud of the challenges that their students have overcome, with some students dealing with physi-

“I LOVE THIS PLACE!” OPEN DAILY

cal or mental disabilities, as well as the anxiety that always goes with learning to be on stage.

“They’re taking care of each other out there,” Canepa said. “They don’t look to us; if someone forgets a line or a prop or a piece of costume, everyone else steps up and fixes it.”

Nielsen also noted that despite having a number of scheduling issues with Sequim High School that have limited their ability to use the stage during rehearsals, the students have adapted well and not let it be a problem.

OPA’s performances of “Singin’ In The Rain Jr.” are 7 p.m. Friday, May 31, and two showings at 1:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday, June 1, at the Sequim High School auditorium. Tickets are available at the doors by donation.

Sequim m ay not be known for its rainfall, but students will be singing in it soon — in an Olympic Peninsula Academy production of “Singin’ In The Rain Jr.” A somewhat modified version of the 1952 classic movie musical meant for a younger cast, “Singin’ In The Rain Jr.” looks to capture the period drama and humor of the original script.

Michele Canepa and DeeDee Nielsen have directed a fun and engaging performance led by their young and enthusiastic cast.

Boasting a cast of more than 30 students, each member of the OPA theatre program has a part on stage, with cast members from previous productions volunteering to provide help backstage and with the technical side of the production.

Mia Coffman, who plays struggling leading lady Lina Lamont in the play, said she enjoyed getting to play a character with a “different personality” from most of what the show offers, and has enjoyed making new friends and learning about the theater process.

“I’ve learned how to work as part of a group,” she said, “and that means a lot to me.”

Dean Rynearson has been involved in OPA’s theatre program since he was in grade school, and as leading man Don Lockwood, he’s enjoying his “exciting” role.

“I’ve loved working on the singing and choreography,” he said, laughing as he added that he’s still working

Sequim Community Orchestra closes season Saturday

BY CONOR DOWLEY Sequim Gazette

The Sequim Community Orchestra will conclude their 2018-19 season with their 8th annual spring concert at 2 p.m. on Saturday, June 1 at Trinity United Methodist Church in Sequim.

The matinee performance, a first for the SCO, will include a performance of Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy”

by the SCO Ensemble combined with String Kids Academy students.

Music Director Phil Morgan-Ellis and Strings Coordinator and teacher Emma Mitchell have been working together to bring the two groups together, from choosing a piece of music to conducting a blended group of musicians ranging from junior high students to retirees.

DiPietro said they’re leery at first but worry blossoms into something else.

“I like the fact that it’s a really sweet story about two people you wouldn’t expect to become friends,” she said.

“We’ve both been through a lot,” Sickles said.

“She ends up looking out for him and he ends up looking out for her,” DiPietro said.

“Six Dance Lessons in Six Weeks” is the actors’ first leading roles and both said they’re loving the experience.

Sickles, a Port Angeles resident, has acted in four plays in six months between OTA and the Port Angeles Community Players.

“This has been such a comfortable environment,” he said. “It’s been great and a very, warm fun experience.”

Sickles said he’s fairly new to acting and the local theater community has been very

Scherer said it was unusual to have such a long rehearsal time especially since he and DiPietro began rehearsing soon after casting.

“It’s good though because we got a good basis for Lily,” he said.

The actress and director find a special significance in the show because DiPietro’s maternal grandmother retired to St. Petersburg like Lily, and Scherer’s stepfather retired in Florida, too.

“I just feel blessed to be able to play this character,” DiPietro said.

OTA advises the play is for adult audiences only.

The first thing you need to do is to be aware that these conversations will be coming and be coming earlier than you would like. This is why you need to do your homework. Find out about the topics. Watch the movies that your children are watching. Pay attention to the rating of the movies and talk with your child why you say a movie is inappropriate for him.

Know what the ratings mean. “Rated PG: Parental

Guidance Suggested – some material may not be suitable for children. Rated PG-13: Parents Strongly Cautioned – some material may be inappropriate for children under 13.

Rated R: Restricted – under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian. Rated X: No one under 17 admitted.“ Be open to talking about the questions your child is asking.

Find out what he wants to know. To do these two things, talking and understanding the reason he asks, takes time and understanding. All of these topics need to be introduced and discussed with tolerance, acceptance, and understanding.

You need to take this one step at a time. You don’t have to have all the answers right away but be prepared to find the answers and be prepared to come back to these topics multiple times.

SEQUIM GAZETTE

Volunteers ready Six Books for Summer program Thousands of books go to Helen Haller students in June

BY MATTHEW NASH Sequim Gazette

As summer approaches, parent and student volunteers gathered in Helen Haller Elementary’s cafeteria last week to continue the tradition of providing six books for each student to keep and read over the summer.

More than 40 volunteers sorted and bagged thousands of books on May 22 for every student from kindergarten through fifth grade including Sequim School District’s preschool.

For the Six Books project, students could select from more than a dozen age-appropriate books to receive.

Helen Haller’s PTO raised the funds for the project through various fundraisers including last November’s Turkey Trot.

Sheri Kruckeberg, the school’s librarian, said she intends to hand out the book bags in early June during the Cougar Reading and Writing Conference week Principal Becky Stanton said the purpose of the program is to help stop the summer reading slide.

Representatives with the National Education Association report children can lose up to three months of reading progress if they don’t read regularly during the summer and that loss could have a long-term effects.

Amanda Weller, 15, writes names on bags for Helen Haller Elementary’s Six Books for Summer program on May 22. Weller was one of many Sequim High students with its Interact Club helping students and parent volunteers bag and sort thousands of books.

Emma Gilliam, 11, looks for her next book to sort and bag for a second grader as part of Helen Haller Elementary’s Six Books for Summer program. It’s the third year for the program with funding coming from Helen Haller PTO and community support.

Koch said, however, that they’re willing to put in the work and that they’re going to make this game as good as they possibly can before they finish it. Koch will work to polish the game’s art assets, including visual and audio elements, while Dorito works on finishing the programming side of the game. Both have an even side on the general design, they said.

RIVERS was found as a stray, extremely emaciated. With some greatly needed food and TLC, Rivers has made an awesome comeback and he’s a healthy dog now. He’s a super sweet boy, and someone (or family) will LOVE him. He still needs all the rules and boundaries that any dog needs, and he will need some training. We have found that he has done OK with some dogs, but he can be picky and reactive with dogs, and has a high prey drive for cats and small animals. We’re looking for an active home w/lots of room to run and play.

GABBS is a rather shy girl that is looking for an adult-only home where she can have a human companion again. Gabbs LOVES playing fetch and tug, and she would LOVE finding a new owner with a nice fenced yard where she can feel safe and happy!

Gabbs needed to be surrendered to us because she did not like having “strangers” coming over to her house. You could imagine that Gabbs is pretty confused as to why she had to be taken away from her home when all she was doing was protecting it!

www.stinkydogubathe.com GINNY is a HUGE sweetheart with people she knows.

However, she can be quite unwelcoming with new people.

It takes her a bit to warm up to people, so any potential adopters will need to be patient with her and come to meet her several times. She responds best with a calm and confident owner/ handler. She DEFINITELY needs rules and boundaries, and her owner needs to be in charge. Ginny is NOT an easy dog, but in the right setting, she’ll be a happy and sweet girl.

HADES is a big strong boy that REALLY needs an experienced owner to help him learn how to be a good canine citizen!

Hades is really snuggly and sweet with his own people, and he will make a great dog for someone that can physically handle him and give him the exercise and training he needs! If you do not have experience with large-breed powerful and stubborn dogs, Hades will NOT be an easy project for you....
