s there really anything more American than planes, fireworks and hotdogs? The 34th annual Freedom Fair and Air Show on July 4 at Ruston Way looks to once again entertain Tacomans while celebrating American heritage. “It is a decades-old tradition for thousands of people to stroll along the Ruston Way Waterfront on Independence Day,” said Gary Grape, who has been an organizer of the event for almost 14 years. “They enjoy stopping at the restaurants, food and beverage booths, arts and crafts vendors, car show, pole vault event, kids’ fun zone, commercial exhibits, and seven live entertainment areas that complement the air show and fireworks.”

Cancer, it turns out, is a great way to meet some of the best, bravest, and most compassionate people in this community. They’re the nurses, doctors, pharmacists, aides, and admin staffers who strive to heal us. And they are the people in the next comfy recliner in the infusion suite. When, after a couple of weeks, I realized the gracious gentleman across the room was Phil “The Privateer’s Pal” Ferrell, I asked if he and his wife, Deb, would tell how they’re fighting his cancer together. They agreed. You may not recognize Ferrell by name, but you know him by his deeds. He retired as a fire marshal with the Tacoma Fire Department. We can thank

POTHOLE OF THE WEEK VISIT US ON FACEBOOK MHJLIVVR JVT [HJVTH^LLRS`

10th and ‘I’ Street Tacoma has a tremendous pothole problem, and the city knows it. During the past couple of years, the city has acknowledged this issue by spending millions of dollars in major arterial repairs with the council’s “pothole initiative.� And in 2010, routine maintenance by Tacoma’s Grounds and Maintenance Division completed street repairs on 229,638 square feet of road. In 2011, the city repaired about 150,000 more square feet of road riddled with holes, and continued those efforts in 2012. And while that may sound like a lot of ground, new holes pop up – or return – each and every day, which means a pothole-free road might never exist in Tacoma. With the help of our readers and our dedicated Pothole Pig, we will continue to showcase some of the city’s biggest and best potholes through our weekly homage to one of T-Town’s most unnerving attributes. Help the Pothole Pig by e-mailing your worst pothole suggestions to SaveOurStreets@tacomaweekly.com. Potholes in need of repair can be reported to the City of Tacoma by calling (253) 591-5495.

CHENEY STADIUM HOSTS CHILI COOKOFF Homestyle Chili Cookoff at Homestown Throwdown sanctioned in the first-ever Washington state Homestyle Chili competition Saturday, June 14, and has qualified a winner to the World Championship with International Chili Society.

As first place winner, she will advance to compete at the world championship. This is the third year for Homestyle division and the first time Washington state has hosted this level of competition. “Last year was my first year to coordinate the event and focus was on sanctioning Chili Red, Chili Verde and Salsa, and we were successful,â€? Cynthia Stearns, Homestyle Chili Cookoff at Hometown Throwdown event producer said. “This year, we were ready to take on this competition and are excited we have been able to sanction this as well.â€? Others winning include for Second place: Leonard Kellogg, Lynnwood; Third Place, Ross Lunbeck, Lacey; Fourth Place, Rescue Mission, Tacoma; and Fifth Place, Yuki Batten, Auburn. Also competing were: Penny and Daryll Grant, Gig Harbor; Sally Jo Hagen, West Seattle; Destry Henderson, Tacoma; Larry and Betty Mayer, Lakebay; and Stadium Thriftway, Tacoma. This competition

Races were tight including a three-way tie for fifth place with a tie-breaker to name the fifth-place winner. Guest judges sampled in blind tastings. Head judge Ken Peach of Spanaway and Scorekeeper Ann-Marie Anderson of Lynwood oversaw the judging and scoring process.

The chili was a huge hit with the crowd (over 3,000 in attendance) and was sold out in two hours. Northwest Center was the charity recognized and supported through this competition as selected by 100.7 The Wolf.

POLICE ASK THE PUBLIC’S HELP TO SOLVE 1974 MURDER By David Rose Correspondent

In 1974, the hit TV show “The Six Million Dollar man� ran into the hearts of millions. Eric Clapton’s song “I Shot The Sheriff � topped the charts, and President Gerald Ford gave Richard Nixon an unconditional DAVID ROSE pardon. It was also the year life changed forever for three men playing pool at a bar. “The victim in this case, Robert Townsend had been at an establishment on South Tacoma Way called the Green Pub Tavern,� said Tacoma police Det. Gene Miller. He detailed what happened on the night of Sept. 16, 1974 to Washington’s Most Wanted Correspondent Parella Lewis. Robert Townsend, who was in his 40’s, made a bet with two other men, believed to be in their 20’s, that he could beat them in a game of pool. “He had some interaction with who I believe are the two suspects in this case, where he played pool against them, and they lost. There was an agreement that he would give them a ride home in exchange for the money that was owed to him at the pool games,� Det. Miller explains. One of the suspects gave Townsend his driver’s license as collateral until he could get home and get cash. But, as the three men were heading that way, something horrible happened. “They somehow ended up at Montgomery and 75th Street. Whether this area has some significant meaning to the suspects is not known with certainty, but I believe they had some connection to this general area.� The area was just eight minutes away from the bar, on a dead-end road, inside a quiet neighborhood. Det. Miller says, “Once they got into the area, there was some type of altercation that took place in the vehicle. The victim

sustained a single gunshot wound to the right side of his head from inside the vehicle and at close proximity. All indications are that the round was fired from inside the vehicle.� But that’s not all. “The vehicle ended up crashing first into a parked vehicle, subsequently into a cinder block wall before coming to rest in some bushes,� Miller explains. Those crashes made a lot of noise at 2 a.m. and brought a powerful witness out of his home. “One of the neighbors in particular was able to observe one of the suspects who at that point in time appeared to be going through the pockets of the victim,� Miller said. He believes the suspect was trying to take back his driver’s license. Police drew up sketches of what witnesses say the men looked like at the time. The one with long sideburns was seen going through the victim’s pockets. The other man fled the scene right after the truck crashed. It’s been almost 40 years since the murder at Montgomery and 75th St., and there have been a lot of advancements in science since that time. Det. Miller has both fingerprints

and DNA from at least one of the suspects and just needs a name to compare them too. Miller adds, “The hope, quite frankly in this particular case, is that somebody is going to have information that hasn’t come forward yet. Somebody is going to look at those sketches and recognize one of those two individuals. That information will allow me to move forward and confirm what I believe happened in this case.� Although little is known about the victim in this case, Miller says that he was in the Air Force at the time and was just days from retiring. “This individual had served 20 years in the military. He was due to retire Oct. 1, 1974. This incident occurred literally 12 days before he would have retired from the military,� Miller said. Police are hoping to get justice for this victim and veteran before another decade passes. If you think you recognize the men in the sketches from 1974, or know anything about this senseless murder, call an anonymous tip into: CRIME STOPPERS: 1-800222-TIPS.

The officer followed him and pulled him over. When questioned about why he didn’t stop at the sign, the man replied that “that’s just how he normally drives� before letting out a chuckle. The man also happened to not have a license and admitted to driving into the alley because he thought the officer wouldn’t follow him. The final piece of the puzzle was the smell of alcohol coming from the vehicle. The officer ran some field sobriety tests and determined the man to be intoxicated, he was then booked into Fife Jail for drunken driving and driving without a license. The old bate-and-switch scheme didn’t quite work for a woman trying to avoid a taxi fare on Pearl St. After getting a ride home, she claimed she didn’t have any money, and would get her neighbor to pay. The neighbor approached the cab and didn’t have the money to pay either, and during this time, the woman disappeared. The driver called the cops and the neighbor was able to tell the officer where the women lived. The officer then discovered she didn’t have any money due to a DUI received earlier in the night, when she accidentally left her purse in her car. The woman was arrested for theft in the third degree and transported to Fife Jail. Compiled by Derek Shuck

him for buildings shut down before they burned down. We can be grateful for his skill in finding the causes of blazes, and for the data he gathered to reduce the risk of future fires. And it’s Ferrell who made possible some of Tacoma’s best pirate fights. As captains sailed from Canada to Tacoma for Tall Ships in 2005, they realized they had a black powder crisis: They didn’t have any, and could not figure out how to get it. Without it, the Lady Washington and Privateer Lynx could not sail in, cannons firing at the shore, or stage their nightly sea fights. It was Ferrell who, when he heard of the problem, solved it, and, 11 years ago, contributed to one of Tacoma’s finest Fourth of July extravaganzas. With that brief introduction, here is the Ferrells’ story. My name is Phil Ferrell, I’m 62 and I have Multiple Myeloma. Multiple Myeloma is a malignant blood cancer that destroys bones, causes kidney failure and severely impacts the immune system. I served on the Tacoma Fire Department for 31 years. I started like everyone else as a firefighter, and after a few years I applied and went to paramedic school. Paramedics have a dual role as a firefighter and paramedic. After 13 years in this role, I became a fire officer and then later moved into Fire Prevention as a Fire Inspector. I was then promoted to Deputy Fire Marshal until my retirement. During my time in this job I met Kathleen Merryman, who at that time was with the Tacoma News Tribune. She followed up on several issues I was involved with and we became friends. Now we frequently share our time with chemo cocktails on Wednesday afternoons at MultiCare enjoying all the bobbing solar toys on the window sill.

Shortly before retiring I scheduled a routine physical, with all the blood work. My doctor called and wanted to talk to me about the results. I thought if it was the usual issues he would have told me on the phone. Worry sets in. My wife Deb and I went to the appointment a few days later. He had a hard time looking me in the eye, shuffled his feet a bit and said I had a monoclonal protein marker in my blood and it looked like an oma. What does that mean? He continued to say I had an M Spike and other markers for Myeloma. I was not familiar with this disease at that time; unfortunately, I know only too well what that is now. He wanted me to see a hematologist for a second opinion. We were stunned, to say the least. I was able to see an oncologist/ hematologist within a couple of days. The exam was the usual stuff, blood work and everything else. He also saw these Myeloma markers and wanted to do a bone marrow biopsy while I was there. A bone marrow biopsy means they penetrate the top area of your hip, the thickest part, with a needle and extract bone marrow. Wow, does that hurt! It felt like he was driving a nail in my hip. At one point he said, “You need to relax,� as he was grinding the needle into the hip. I said, “Really, want to trade places?� The biopsy was sent to Seattle for extensive tests. I will never forget the first time I crossed the sky bridge on the 4th floor at MultiCare and seeing “REGIONAL CANCER CENTER� and how that felt: sickening, scared and disbelief. At the next meeting with the oncology doctor he reviewed the results. He had all the results on the TV screen and explained them. When he got to the markers he told me I had “smoldering myeloma,� and there is no cure. What an irony that a fireman gets a disease with “smoldering� as the name! Smoldering myeloma is the pre-

cancerous stage of Multiple Myeloma that will progress to what is known as active disease. I began to educate myself about the disease process, treatment and survivability. There is another language in this cancer world. I learned all about the Bence Jones proteins, the meaning of IGG, Beta 2, Free Lambda, Heavy and Light Chain numbers and a litany of other terms. At times I would just have to quit reading because it was just overwhelming to realize I had this and what the consequences are. It took me a while to be able to say “I have cancer� without choking on it. I would say it looking in the mirror to see myself saying and believing it. Fortunately, I did not have many issues people have when diagnosed and would not have known I had the disease if not for the physical. This was the start of over three years getting blood work checked every three months, an annual bone scan, MRI and CT to check for progression or damage. In December, 2013, I started to have excruciating pain in my right arm. After an MRI the reviewing doctor called that night and told me that the C-7 vertebrae, the last cervical vertebrae at the base of the neck, had been completely destroyed from Myeloma, and the pressure on my spinal cord was the cause of the arm pain. We were devastated to hear this, knowing the disease was not “smoldering’� any longer, but had become active and was attacking bone. He scheduled me to see a neurosurgeon the next day. This doctor told me I was in danger of being paralyzed from the neck down. I had emergency surgery to remove what was left of C-7, install a titanium cage with bone graft and install a plate for support. I belong to St. John Bosco Parish in Lakewood and before the surgery a very extensive prayer group was initiated for me. I also had the Sacrament for the sick. I want people to know the power of prayer. X See CANCER / page A5

During the day of the surgery, check in procedures, waiting a few hours for the delayed surgery, something I normally would not have the patience for, I had the most overwhelming sense of peace. I have never experienced anything like this peace and found it very comforting. I am certain the Holy Spirit was carrying me through this ordeal. When they came to get me for surgery, my daughter asked if I was nervous and I said, not at all. Firefighters are a big family. I had let the news out through the union about my condition and I was overwhelmed at the outpouring of calls, e-mails, cards and offers for help of any kind from so many current and retired firefighters. It was, to say the least, very humbling. I recovered well from the neck surgery having to wear a horse collar neck brace for two months. Ugh!! There were long days and nights wearing that thing. Since the disease was now active I was started on the chemo regimen once a week. Fortunately, I don’t have too many adverse side effects. I am now in what is called the “induction phase.� This means I am getting chemo to drive down the myeloma cancer cells and get me ready for a stem cell transplant later this summer. This is my only hope for the remission of this disease. This will all be done at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance. This is a complex process and I won’t go into detail. If you want more info you can go to this link for all you could want to know about Multiple Myeloma: http://www.seattlecca.org/diseases/ multiple-myeloma-overview.cfm. As I stated before, this disease severely impacts the immune system. At the beginning of April I got a fever of 101.5. The doctors’ instructions are to call and be seen at an emergency room if you get a temperature of 100.5 or more. My wife was insistent

I call and go in. Well, as an old paramedic, I’m thinking I am not going to spend five hours in the ER and have them tell me to drink liquids and rest. Already doing that! The temp kept going up to 102 over a couple of days. When I went in for my regular chemo day on Wednesday, I was so weak and dizzy I had to be wheeled into the hospital. My blood pressure was 74/40. My doctor saw me and said, “Take him to the ER, he is in septic shock.� NOT GOOD. The infection had a three-day head start. After spending several hours and getting a battery of drugs and liquids, they admitted me to the ICU. I spent three days there getting treated for the septic shock. When I saw my oncology doctor the next Wednesday, he told me after the ER doctor admitted me he had called him and said he did not know if I would make it. Whoa! I will listen to my wife from now on. Statistically, this disease affects three to four people per 100,000. There are approximately 15,000 firefighters in Washington State. It is disconcerting that in this state alone in the last few years there have been five firefighters, including me, who have been stricken with this disease. Three of them have since died. The disease is becoming much more prevalent in the fire service due to the toxic environment encountered during and after firefighting operations. RCW51.32.185: (http:// a p p s . l eg . wa . g ov / R C W / d e f a u l t . aspx?cite=51.32.185) provides for the Presumption of Occupational Diseases for Firefighters and it was determined that my disease was a result of firefighting. Multiple Myeloma is one on the cancers that is included in this law. This disease is extremely expensive to treat and all my treatment will be covered. Additionally, if I should die from this disease, it is considered a Line of Duty Death, which has a benefit for my wife. There were days in the beginning when our emotions ran rampant and

you wanted to run around like your hair is on fire! My wife and I have accepted and dealt with the fact I have this disease. We fully understand the disease, treatment and potential outcomes. I know God has a plan and my job is not to interfere with that plan. I have no control over this disease and trust the doctors will do everything they can to get me to remission. I am not going to waste my days wringing my hands or hiding in a dark room because of this. I have a lot of living left to do! I will say I would rather be running into a burning building or charging down a ships’ ladder into an engine room fire than to have this disease. I don’t have that option. I want to express my heartfelt thanks for all the MultiCare Oncology staff! YOU ROCK! Thanks for your professionalism, care and concern. It makes a difference, trust me.

Guest Editorial

Brunell’s arguments against coal emissions favor corporate welfare By Tom E. Brooks [Re: “Quit piling on regulations – there is a better way� by Don Brunell, published in the June 6 Tacoma Weekly] Mr. Brunell’s arguments against regulation of coal emissions ring hollow with a strong undercurrent favoring corporate welfare. First, data he cites claiming new regulations placed on coal-fueled energy will kill jobs with little CO2 reduction comes from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. According to Sourcewatch.org, this organization is quite different from local chambers of commerce that provide references to local businesses and maps for tourists. Sourcewatch describes the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as a highly conservative, partisan lobby organization that works to manipulate public opinion in favor of their big donors and, most often, Republican politicians and candidates. The New York Times reported in October 2010 that half of the Chamber’s $140 million in contributions in 2008 came from just 45 big-money donors, many of whom enlisted the Chamber’s help to fight political and public opinion battles on their behalf (such as opposing financial or healthcare reforms, or other regulations). The Chamber is “dominated by oil companies, pharmaceutical giants, automakers and other polluting industries,� according to James Carter, executive director of the Green Chamber of Commerce.

Others view these new carbon rules that Mr. Brunell criticizes as an “employment renaissance for clean energy.� Multiple studies over the last 10 years from the Economic Policy Institute to the University of California at Berkeley show that the renewable energy sector generates more jobs per megawatt of power installed, per unit of energy produced, and per dollar of investment than the fossil fuel-based energy sector. Second, in discussing the merits of biorefining, a promising new technology that converts biomass into useful products such as fuel, Mr. Brunell (past president of the Association of Washington Business) argues that CO2 emissions are a good thing because they provide a necessary ingredient for this new process. He fails to mention that municipal waste treatment facilities can provide ample amounts of this necessary ingredient for biorefining. His circular reasoning translates to this: let us continue to pollute without regulation so we can develop a greener industry. I hope your readers are not manipulated into accepting this false choice. Next, Mr Brunell goes on to argue the 40-year-old Reaganesque/ GOP mantra that deregulation will grow our economy through our free market system. He writes: “If allowed to flourish, the creative Americans thriving in our free market system will find better ways to satisfy customers with better products at lower prices.� I have 23 years of experience working for a Fortune 50 company, hold a Masters Degree in Business

Administration and have learned the notion of a “free market� laughable in today’s corrupt political climate. As most readers already know, a “free market� is not a “fair market.� It usually favors mega-corporations and wealthy investors. Readers should ask who are the “creative thriving Americans� Mr. Brunell references. Lastly, Mr. Brunell claims less regulation will allow for lower prices. This argument is deceptive because of loopholes in our accounting methods. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) fail to include the indirect costs of environmental degradation and the financial burden of negative effects on human health. When the “free market� determines the price of a product these costs are absent. Instead, these costs are externalized to the taxpaying public in the form of medical costs, loss of natural resources, and environmental clean-up. This is one more example of how wealth continues to concentrate toward those who already have it. Huge profits are shared only with wealthy investors while accounting practices and our corporate legal system allow these indirect costs to be passed on to the public veiled in the mirage that deregulation will help to grow our economy. Whose economy? I encourage readers to be cautious of arguments against regulation by “following the money.� Rarely will they find these arguments favoring the taxpaying, hard-working public. Tom E. Brooks is a Tacoma resident.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, I can’t believe you would post Chris Britt’s editorial cartoon! You should be ashamed of yourself! 95% chance of a school shooting? Why not add “chance of a US soldier being shot� or “I-5 will be backed up for miles.� Get a clue, it’s NOT funny!!! And by the way, your percentage is off, should by 0% because it’s summer break, duh! Charlene Piercy Tacoma Dear Editor, Five more U.S. soldiers were killed in Afghanistan yesterday. They were killed by a NATO airstrike, so-called “friendly fire.� Who is to blame for these deaths? Certainly not Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, who did not order U.S. troops into an endless and pointless war in Afghanistan. Veterans for Peace has had few opportunities to applaud the actions of President Obama. We are profoundly disappointed that the president has continued the aggressive foreign policies of the Bush Administration. But today we can thank President Obama for a couple steps in the right direction. President Obama did the right thing when he brought home a U.S. prisoner of war from Afghanistan. President Obama did the right thing when he released five Afghan prisoners of war from the U.S. prison at Guantanamo. But President Obama did the wrong thing when he decided that U.S. troops will remain in Afghanistan for another 2-1/2 years, and then some. The deaths of five U.S. soldier yesterday is the kind of bad news we can expect as long as U.S. troops are in harm’s way. As Vietnam veteran John Kerry once famously said, “How do we ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?� Sgt. Bergdahl, we have great respect for you and your

wonderful family. We are happy that you will be reunited soon! Gerry Condon Submitted by Tacoma Veterans for Peace VFP Chapter 134 Dear Editor, Our news is full of happy stories of wonderful achievers – even 3.5 to 4.8 grade point students who are ending high school and college with joy and hope for the future. But wait a minute! What about the 57 million children in many parts of the world who don’t even have a chance to enter a grade school? They are not happy, not able to experience even graduation from kindergarten. Through the Global Partnership for Education the U.S. is asked to help support an international effort to educate the poorest of the poor and the disadvantaged. The U.S. is being asked to pledge $250 million over two years to help in the $3.5 billion needed to help the world community pay for primary education for those in the worst circumstances. The U.S. pledge is less than the cost of a jet fighter plane. Education is the only proven way to exchange knowledge for bullets. Let your U.S. Representative know this pledge is important to you. Many of the Washington delegation have urged President Obama to support the pledge. How much joy could be shown worldwide if all nations could be celebrating graduations from first through 12th grades instead of having kidnappings, murder, burning schools and keeping especially girls from being able to go to school. David Corner Tacoma

Altering the ways a city operates is never an easy process. And it shouldn’t be. Municipal governance isn’t something that should be changed on a whim because the trickle-down ramifications and unintended consequences can often be huge, albeit unnoticed for years. Big changes require strong evidence to overcome the status quo. Tacoma City Council didn’t largely get that strong evidence from the Charter Review Committee, resulting in only 12 recommendations slated for further discussion and potential public votes. Top among the issues that died without council action was the recommendation that the city change its form of government to one that trimmed the council from nine down to seven members and created a roster of added duties for the mayor, who would rely on a Chief Administrative Officer instead of a city manager, for expertise. The proposed switch was hotly debated not only during the review process but even during the creation of the volunteer committee itself. It was no secret, for example, that former mayor Bill Baarsma was a strong supporter of the change, so his appointment to chair the review committee was seen by some as a foreshadowing of things to come. The change was, after all, almost certain to come up during the review process since it was so central to the discussions during the 2004 review that led to a citizen initiative when the council failed the slate the change for a public vote. That volunteer effort, however, died after failing to gain enough signatures in time for the election deadline. What should have happened after that effort died was for those change backers to mount an information blitz about the issue. That didn’t happen. And now after yet another defeat to have the “strong mayor� plans placed on a public ballot, that information blitz won’t likely come either. See, there are valid reasons Tacoma should have a system where the mayor is the focal point of public focus and city visioning. One of the city’s shortcomings, for example, is that with a council of nine members, at least as many visions of the city exist. That means less focus on one vision for the city championed by an elected official. There are, however, valid reasons Tacoma should stay with the current city manager system. The roster of reasons backing both sides was lost in personal jabs, out-ofline barbs, unsupported speculations of opportunities missed and futures unrealized. The council wanted recommendations based on facts, figures, costs and alternatives. Council members wanted proven solutions to known problems in the current charter, but they got political science lectures that ended with more division and less clarity than when the process began. So here we are. The City Council culled through the 19 recommendations and passed through 12 for further discussion on July 15. Most of those changes are largely housekeeping measures to align the charter with state law and current city practices and will likely pass easily when they face voters in November. The most meaty charter issues remaining for further discussion concern term limits of city council members and on the appointment of key directors at Tacoma Public Utilities. Specifically, a charter change would allow no more than two full terms on the council and two terms as mayor, for a total of 16 years in office if a councilmember serves before being elected mayor. TPU would face more oversight by the council through confirmation authority and required performance audits if a charter change moves forward. Nothing on the slate of changes would drastically alter daily life in Tacoma, for better or worse.

W Freedom It’s the wide variety of entertainment options and the beautiful setting that helped get the Tacoma Freedom Fair named one of the 10 “World’s Best� fireworks events by the Travel Channel. The festival will transform the Tacoma Waterway into a sea of festivities on America’s most patriotic day. “It’s over two miles of Ruston Way. We build a city in the morning with 100 stores, we provide live music and feed over 100,000 people, then at 11 p.m. we tear the city down,� Grape said. This year is no exception, as Ruston Way will be virtually unrecognizable, filled with vendors and entertainment including the annual tradition of The Tacoma Freedom Fair Beach Vault, featuring top Northwest polevaulters defying gravity. Other events include the annual car show featuring everything from hot rods to muscle cars, as well as a BMX bike show sponsored by Monster Energy. All of this will be set to a backdrop of live Tacoma bands playing at seven different stages. The air show will begin at 1:30 p.m. and end at 3:30 p.m. while the fireworks will begin at 10:10 with the grand finale at 10:30. While these will be familiar sights to many Tacomans, Grape promises that this year’s Freedom Fair is anything but stale. “You can only blow off so many fireworks every

year. The scene and uniqueness of the Freedom Fair are built right in. It’s something we don’t mess with – we just try and better it every year,� Grape said. “It’s really the flavor and the production; the uniqueness doesn’t change. It’s very unique each year. Though the specific elements that come in every year are different, we’ll have different planes in the air.� For those looking for a spectacular view of the show, check out the Russ Davis Pier VIP section. A fee of $25 gets you both a great view of the air show without the hassle of a huge crowd and a free lunch. Though the military is no longer participating in the event, the air show is alive and well thanks to a diverse cast of civilian pilots ready to dazzle. This year will feature classic aviation machines flown by expert pilots such as the Ace Maker T-33 Shooting Star piloted by

Greg Colyer, Jacquie, B. Warda in the Extra 300, Vicky Benzing flying the Stearman, F4U, the Corsair N4901 W flown by Steve Bakke, Renny Price in the Sukhoi SU-29, Dan Vance flying P-51 Speedball Alice, the T-6 Texan flown by Bud Granley, and the Hawker Sea Fury “Argonaut� flown by Korey Wells. “All these performers will work very hard to thrill the crowd,� Air Show Director Doug Fratoni said in a press release. Grape says he is thrilled to create an event honoring America that still has a classic Tacoma feel to it. “It’s a signature event for the city, and for us it’s an appreciation for our past. The way I look at it, it’s an event, but I look at it as a thank you for all those who have died, all those who have fought to keep America safe. It’s a celebration of America,� Grape said.

Local Restaurants JOHNNY’S AT FIFE EXPANDS WITH BRAND NEW SIGN By Derek Shuck derek@tacomaweekly.com

A historic landmark in Fife recently got a little bit of a makeover. Johnny’s at Fife recently expanded the size of their parking lot and celebrated by installing a brand new electronic sign with a reader board to entice and communicate with customers. Johnny’s at Fife has been a main-stay of the community for over 45 years, and has been family owned and operated that entire time. “[The Fife Community] is sort of like family, it’s a small community with a lot of regulars that come in, it’s just a good feeling, they support us and we support them,� part owner Anita Crabill said. Crabill personally thanked both the Fife City Council and Tubeart, the company that constructed the sign. Johnny’s has spent the last 45 years perfecting its culinary art, and serves some of the best breakfast, lunch and dinner options in Fife. Breakfast options include the Meat Lover’s Breakfast, two slices of bacon, two sausage links, ham, two eggs, hash browns, and choice of a biscuit or toast for $10.79. For those not looking for the meaty option, the I-5 Special provides the other breakfast necessities in the form of two eggs, hash browns, two hot cakes, and your choice of ham, bacon, or sausage for $9.99.

It was to be a mammoth battle of unbeatens at the midway point of the Western Washington Football Alliance (WWFA) season. What it turned out to be was a shocking display from one of the Northwest’s most storied football franchises delivering a rough lesson to the new team in town in quite the brutal fashion Saturday June 21 at Sunset Stadium in Sumner. The Pierce County Bengals dominated both sides of the line of scrimmage and were a rugged host to one of the league’s new franchises – the Northwest Cardinals. The final score of 63-6 really tells the story in this one-sided battle that saw Bengal touchdowns from the air, the ground, off of turnovers and on kick returns. Pierce County entered the game 4-0 in WWFA play while the Cardinals boasted an impressive 3-0 mark in their first season out of the gates and along with the Puyallup Nation Kings, were the sole undefeated teams in the league entering Saturday’s play. Running backs Chris Brathwaite and Victor Ramon Valle, along with quarterback Ronald Pate and company rushed 60 times for 307 yards while the vaunted Bengal defense held the

Cardinals to minus-29 yards rushing on 13 attempts. Following a few back-and-forth possessions by the two teams, the Bengals made use of a short field following an interception by Happy Lona, who returned the ball all the way to the Cardinals 26-yard line. Five plays later, Quincy Jackson took the ball in from six yards out with 3:55 left in the first quarter for the opening score and the floodgates were officially open for the Bengals. The Bengals pushed the Cardinals back five yards on the next possession and Ronald Purdue fielded a 39-yard punt from the Cardinals Avery Graves and zigzagged his way 64-yards for a second Bengals touchdown and a 13-0 lead. Happy Lona came through again on the next Cardinals possession, blocking Graves’ punt and setting the Bengals up with prime field position at the 17-yard line. Six plays later multi-purpose back Ronald Pate scored up the gut from two yards out and the Bengals lead went to 19-0. After a three-and-out possession by the Cardinals, Octavis Walton led the Bengals on a 11-play, 58-yard drive culminating in Walton hitting Nick Clinkscales in the center-back of the end zone for another touchdown and a 25-0

Bengals advantage with 4:44 remaining in the first half. Another strong defensive stand and punt and the Bengals took possession at the Cardinals 47-yard line and kept their ground game churning with seven rushes ending with another Pate touchdown from four yards out as time expired in the first half and the Bengals led 33-0. The Cardinals opened the second half with prime real estate at their own 40-yard line but coughed-up the football on the first play from scrimmage. Pierce County rolled-up an 11-play drive to follow and capped it with a 39-yard field goal off the foot of Nick Clinkscales and a 36-0 margin. Two dead-end series by both teams saw the Cardinals backed-up to their own 10-yard line. On 3rd and 21 quarterback Jason Wiley tossed a pitch too high for running back Michael Ridell and a host of Bengals swarmed over the ball in the end zone with defensive lineman Tasi Su’e coming up with the ball and the touchdown. The Bengals now led 43-0 with 1:36 to go in the third quarter. With nothing to lose, the Cardinals went for it on 4th and 15 from their own 23-yard line on the next possession and a long pass from quarterback Rodney Rains just missed his target and the X See BENGALS / page A13

The Sounders U-23 dealt out a portion of revenge against Lane United Saturday night, June 20, at Sunset Stadium with a 4-0 hammer job. Lane defeated the Sounders 1-0 in a hardfought match to open the season and payback was on the menu. Hoping to hold onto fourth place in the Premier Development League Northwest standings, the Sounders U-23 came out firing early and often against Lane United, never letting the visitors get a solid footing or any type of groove throughout the 90 minutes of action. It was a bittersweet deal for the Sounders U-23, as they would say goodbye to two of their early season standouts – Nico Hanson and Chris Wehan from the University of Mexico, as they were set to return home for University business following the game. Hanson would leave his mark in the 10th minute following a corner kick from Michael Bajza. The initial kick was bounced back toward the corner side and Bajza returned the ball with a looping pass to the far post where Clement Simonin put a head on the ball back toward the center of the goal box to a charging Hanson. Hanson dove and drilled a header to the right side of the goal and the Sounders U-23 led 1-0. The teams played-out the first half in exciting fashion, with Lane goalkeeper Matt Bersano making several fantastic saves on Sounder attacks, ultimately keeping the score at 1-0 entering the half. Sounders U-23 coach Darren Sawatzky started a new-look 11 for the match and subbed-out phenom Mohammed Dumbuya at the half for another phenom; the much awaited home arrival of USA National star Jordan Morris. Morris would make his presence known soon as former Stadium standout Jamael Cox drove the ball up the wing, punching the ball to the near post where Austin Dunker skipped it to the middle of the box to slashing Morris and the kid from Mercer Island drilled it into the back of the net in the 54th minute of play. Four minutes later Hanson was taken down in the penalty box for a foul and Michael Bajza punched-in a penalty kick to put the Sounders U-23 up 3-0. Four minutes after that, defender Mark Lee came through on a fullback flash, executed a perfect slide tackle on a 50/50 ball with Lane’s Bersano, hopped back up and delivered an empty-net goal for a resounding fourth point. Sawatzky kept mixing up the lineup in the second half and his squad continually kept Lane off its game. The Sounders would outshoot Lane 23 to 10 and dominated with possession of the ball for most of the match. The Sounders U-23 remains solely in fourth place in the league standings, having played two fewer games than all of the teams in front of them. The club travels to Canada for a two-day, two-game tilt against the Victoria Highlanders FC, followed by a match with the Vancouver Whitecaps FC U-23. Both teams reside just ahead of the Sounders in the PDL standings. The Sounders U-23 wrap up the regular season at home with a July 13 match against Victoria and a July 16 test against their rivals; the first place Kitsap Pumas at Sunset Stadium in Sumner.

Earlier in the day, the Pierce County Bengals knocked off one of the three remaining undefeated teams in the Western Washington Football Alliance league and the Puyallup Nation Kings were now on the clock to see if they would remain at the top of the WWFA standings with the Bengals, Saturday June 21. In their usual fashion, the Kings dropped the hammer on another league foe as they handled and handed the Thurston County Mayhem a 64-14 defeat at Chief Leschi Stadium under the clear

skies and the watchful eye of Mount Rainier. The Kings entered the game ranked number one and two in two West Coast semi-professional football rankings. After the smackdown of the Mayhem on June 21 they entered the rankings at number seven in the American Football News Today poll. It was a bizarre game at Chief Leschi. The visiting squad from Lacey took to the air the entire game, never handing the ball off to a running back until the last two plays of the contest. The game plan didn’t pay off as the Kings intercepted six Mayhem passes throughout; two of them

ending in pick-six touchdowns. Following the Mayhem’s first drive, the bleeding began. Punter Webster Fepuleai punched the ball to the Mayhem 23-yard line into the waiting arms of possibly the WWFA’s most dangerous return man, Chris McCutchin. The speedster weaved his way through defenders and sprinted 77 yards for the opening score. Running back Isaac Syph broke free for a 24-yard touchdown six minutes later and the Kings led 13-0. The Kings forced a punt on the next Mayhem possession and followed it up with a 12-play, 65-yard scoring drive capped by a four-yard score by Archie Ioramo for a 20-0 Kings’ lead.

After a long kickoff return, the Mayhem got on the board with a 54-yard scoring strike from Dennis Nichols to Matt Wines to close to 20-8 with 11:45 left in the second quarter. The Kings responded with an eight-play drive culminating in a four-yard touchdown run by McCutchin to stretch the lead back out to 26-8. The Kings set up to end the first half with a 43-yard field goal attempt by kicker Ryan Burks with two seconds left in the half. The kick was blocked and scooped up by Joseph Kury who rambled 64 yards for a Mayhem touchdown and the game looked a little more interesting entering X See KINGS / page A13

The Western Indoor Soccer League (WISL) has been formed by a group of experienced indoor soccer club owners and arena operators and will begin play in November of 2014 throughout the Northwest. The WISL will feature elite adult men in an entertaining, competitive amateur competition. “We are launching a new indoor league as a labor of our love for the sport of indoor soccer and as a way to further opportunities for players, arena operators and fans,� said John Crouch, who led a conference call in which the first founding clubs listened to the league’s platform and then committed to join. “Our group of owners has experience operating indoor sides and arenas. We will call upon that history as we move forward in a league we can truly call our own.� Founding clubs are on board from Tacoma, Bellingham, Arlington and Everett. Wenatchee has now become the fifth team to join up. The league is currently in discussions with a handful of other groups in various cities, and is also taking online applications from interested club owners. The WISL (pronounced “whistle�) movement gained steam after the outdoor Evergreen Premier League made its debut this spring and summer as another outlet for owners and talented players. Several of the people and clubs involved in the successful launch of that grass-roots league are also involved with the creation of the WISL. The league is committed to sustainability and using local indoor arenas as venues. “We want to build a community of indoor soccer hotbeds where players can compete and fans can support their local clubs from the stands during our sometimes long Northwest winters,� said Crouch. “It’s vital for us to make our league good business sense for owners of clubs and owners of arenas.�

In the coming weeks and months the Western Indoor Soccer League will be taking club applications, debuting a league logo, networking with referee associations to establish meaningful training sessions and open lines of communications, announcing a final line-up of clubs and revealing a schedule for the season.

The Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges is pleased to announce that the 2014 NWAACC Volleyball Championships will be hosted by Pierce College and the Western Region in conjunction with the Tacoma South Sound Sports Commission at the Greater Tacoma Convention & Trade Center in Tacoma, Washington. The Greater Tacoma Convention & Trade Center is the second largest meeting location in the Pacific Northwest allowing the NWAACC to continue to offer tournament games on two courts simultaneously while showcasing high-level competition in one of the largest markets on the west coast. Pierce College and the Tacoma Convention Center were instrumental in coming together to offer a world-class experience to participating volleyball teams and colleges. “The NWAACC is excited about this partnership as we continue in our endeavors to provide our studentathletes a first class championship experience, “ said NWAACC executive director, Marco Azurdia. “Pierce College, the NWAACC West Region, the GTCTC and the Tacoma South Sound Commission partnering together allows this to happen.

Previously, Mt. Hood Community College served as host to the annual NWAACC Volleyball Championships. The NWAACC Volleyball Championship is a 16-team, double-elimination tournament held annually over four days in late November.

Two plays later McCutchin broke through a gap up the middle and sprinted for a 22-yard touchdown and a 39-14 Kings lead.

There was a great musical line up for the Brian Redman Memorial Music Scholarship Fundraiser on Saturday, June 21 at Jazzbones. This was the fifth annual fundraiser for the purpose of assisting in promoting and enhancing the development of young musicians. Redman, who died in a scooter accident in 2009, loved music – all music. He was a huge supporter of the local music scene, known for leading Tacoma hard-rock band, Dirty Knockers and for playing bass with popular Vancouver, BC thrash-metal outfit 3 Inches of Blood and local hardcore band Trial. The musical acts that performed cov-

ered a wide spectrum from newly formed and young performers to seasoned veterans: Resisting Ordinary, Hunnywell, Torre, Robin Moxxy, Champagne Sunday, Rafael Tranquilino, Gabe McPherson & Paul Sawtelle (special guest Rosie McPherson), Pig Snout, Kim Archer and Nolan Garrett. It was a wonderful day of music for a great cause and memory of Brian Redman. One of the memorable highlights of the day was Redman’s former band mate Justin Tamminga accompanying his 6- and 9-yearold children in their band called Pig Snout, a performance that stole the crowd’s hearts.

REIGN. Thomas Morandi’s “Sun King” was recently relocated to a site on Dock St. From 1977 to 2008, the public sculpture was in Broadway Plaza. By Dave R. Davison dave@tacomaweekly.com

What is old is new again. Thomas Morandi’s monumental, abstract, bronze sculpture entitled “Sun King” has been returned to the light of day after some six years spent in a limbo of storage while the powers that be could decide its fate. Originally located in Broadway Plaza in 1977 – outside what was then the Sheraton Hotel – the work was removed in 2008 when the hotel was renamed Hotel Murano and the designers were eager to jump onto the bandwagon of Tacoma’s rebranding as a center of glass. Last month, “Sun King” was at last delivered to a new home: a grassy oval along Dock Street near the place where South 15th Street comes spiraling down from its railroad overpass. On June 25, the work was publically dedicated. The dedication of the work is long overdue. Reportedly, there was no dedication ceremony for the piece when it was set down in Broadway Plaza back in 1977. The sculpture seems to have been plopped into place and then ensued a somewhat chilly reception on the part of the public. A local newspaper columnist infamously compared the art to “dinosaur droppings.” (Really? The sculpture is too geometric to be comparable to poop.) Some of the public commentary on “Sun King” foreshadowed the vehement wave of outrage that followed the installation of

Stephen Antonakos’s neon sculpture in the Tacoma Dome just a few years later. Perhaps Tacoma’s judgment of art has become a little more mature since then. Morandi, the “Sun King’s” creator, was scheduled to be on hand for the June 25 dedication ceremony. (This story goes to print almost simultaneously with the dedication ceremony.) “Sun King” was the artist’s second public commission at the time. He since went on to have a successful career as a public artist and art professor at Oregon State University. Now 70 years old and retired, Morandi has come full circle with the overdue dedication of his Tacoma monument. “Sun King” is ageless. It does not feel at all dated. It is as fresh and crisp and contemporary as if it were made yesterday. It is a marvelous, monolithic monument in three parts. It is a poetic bronze behemoth as multifaceted as an iceberg. Its multitude of interesting angles and curves is an abstracted rendering of a Northwest landscape. Circumambulation of the affair is a truly cubist experience. It has a different appearance from every angle. The circular opening near the top is the monument’s titular sun. It would be an interesting exercise to track the setting of the sun through the hole in the sculpture. “Sun King” is Tacoma’s own modern-day Stonehenge. The new location seems to suit the piece better than its original space. Let us hope that “Sun King” may now hold court in our City of Destiny for decades to come.

POW WOW COMEDY JAM SERVING UP ‘MAINSTREAM COMEDY WITH A NATIVE PERSPECTIVE’ By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

A

decade ago, comedians Marc Yaffee and Vaughn Eaglebear were hanging out at the Brickwall Comedy Club in Spokane, marveling at the success of Kings of Comedy, Blue Collar Comedy and other popular, themed package tours. In his act, Yaffee calls himself “Mexi-jo,” because on his Mexican, Irish and Navajo heritage, and Eaglebear is a Lakota/Colville Indian. The two joked about teaming up with the few Native American comedians they knew and came up with some “punny” names for the tour they imagined. How about One Funny, Two Funny, Three Funny Indians? No, wait, I’ve got it: Jokesignals! But gradually, they got serious, and the result is the Pow Wow Comedy Jam, as featured in the 2010 Showtime special “American Indian Comedy Slam: Goin’ Native, No Reservations Needed.” On July 1, the tour will bring Yaffee, Eaglebear and Cree comic Howie Miller to Tacoma Comedy Club; so we checked in with Yaffee last week to get the skinny. Tacoma Weekly: So what can people expect from you in Tacoma? Marc Yaffee: Main-

stream comedy with a Native perspective. Our jokes will have a little spin on ‘em as far as our outlooks on culture and race relations. Howie’s very animated. He loves to do voices. He’s like a cartoon character on stage. Vaughn’s very quirky. He does one-liners, out of left field, that are really unpredictable. And me, I do a lot of political and relationship stuff. So it’s really three different styles and a little of something for everybody. TW: I’m guessing a topic that’s making headlines this month might show up in someone’s routine. What’s your take on the Washington Redskins? Yaffee: As Indian people, it’s been on our consciousness quite a while. I just find it ironic how the proponents of the Redskin name say, “We’re trying to honor Native Americans.” Well, honor someone else. Honor Congress; change it from the Redskins to Snakeskins. TW: I’ve read you didn’t learn you were adopted until you were 25. Yaffee: Well – actually, to correct you – I knew I was adopted, but I didn’t know my ethnic background. My mother contacted me. I was working for the state of California, the DMV office. I used to give the driving tests, the

farthest thing you can do from standup comedy, and I got a Fed Ex package one day. I opened it up, and it was a six-page, handwritten letter from my birth mother. “I’ve been trying to track you down all these years.” She’s a Caucasian lady – of European descent – and she told me about my dad. His father was from the Navajo reservation in Gallup (New Mexico.) He grew up in Phoenix, and they ended up together in L.A. Everyone always said, “Oh, man, you must be Indian” or, “You must be Hawaiian.” I never knew, growing up, what I was. I was always the “other” on the list. So it was interesting, but was not surprising. TW: So you had your sneaking suspicions. Yaffee: I had my suspicions, but no proof. I

still haven’t met my father, Runs From Responsibility, though. TW: What was it like at that time learning about your heritage? And what did that bring to your comedic perspective? Yaffee: I wasn’t even doing comedy yet at the time, so it was more of just a cultural perspective. I always kind of identified with Native folks or Latinos; I always felt very comfortable in that environment, especially on my mom’s side. My adopted mother’s family is Mexican-American. So it wasn’t too hard of a stretch; but it gives you a sense of belonging, even though I’ve never gotten enrolled in the tribe, and I haven’t had a chance to meet my dad yet. There was a lot of strife in my adopted

family over my mom finding me, so I haven’t really pressed that. But I think that’s next on my to-do list, you know. Like any of us, my dad’s not getting any younger. I did hear, though, through a third party that he’s still alive and living in Southern California. In this day and age, it’s pretty easy to find people. So, one of these days, there could be a reunion. TW: When did you first realize you were funny enough to do standup? Yaffee: The only live comedy show I’d been to was Sam Kinison at a student union down in L.A. when I was visiting some friends, which was amazing - right before he exploded, you know. So it had been in the back of my mind. “Man, I’d like to do that.” So fast-forward to 1997 and this comedian, Donald Lacy, was doing a onenighter show, and he’d just lost his daughter 30 days before. He put on the best show, and I just thought how powerful it was - how cathartic it was to see that this guy could still bring laughter to other people in the midst of his suffering. I said, “Man, I’ve gotta try this.” I went and took a class in Sacramento. My teacher liked me and decided to take me out on the road. TW: Take me back to your craziest heckling

experience. Yaffee: (In 2005) we did some shows in the Middle East at Bahrain, the headquarter of the Fifth Fleet. The aircraft carrier, the Stennis, had just pulled into port, and they were joking that the nickname of the ship was “Stennis the Menace.” The guys had been out to sea for 90 days or some god-awful amount of time. So they were ready to party, and they said they had done $50,000 worth of alcohol on the base in three days. (He laughs.) I had to follow some Filipino band doing “Teen Spirit” by Nirvana. So I get up there, and half the crowd wouldn’t listen, and half the crowd was just drunk and yelling. It was kind of like doing comedy in a mosh pit. There wasn’t even a specific heckler I could address. I just had to address the situation and laugh at it. TW: I was going to ask what you do in your downtime on the road. But I checked your YouTube feed (www.youtube. com/marcyaffee) and saw, like, a thousand “Funny for Money” clips. What’s the story behind that? Yaffee: I know, I’ve been kind of ridiculous with that. Funny for Money is a new web site, funnyformoney.com. They give you a (topic) of the day, and they want an audio response. For instance, “adult film star, running for mayor of Toronto,” and then you’ve gotta come up with a punch line. I fell into it after a friend of mine mentioned it. For the exercise, to get me to write, I just do it. I’m also working on a TV comedy, which we’re close to a development deal – fingers crossed. It’s called “Almost Americans” (about) a Native teacher with a class full of new immigrants studying to become citizens. So it’s kind of like “Welcome Back, Kotter” with an immigrant setting. TW: What do you do in “Almost Americans”? Yaffee: At this point, I’m the teacher. Til they find out I can’t act, then we’ll see. (Laughs) I’m the principal and the head writer right now. I might get demoted to background stunt man and coffee stirrer. I don’t know yet.

BLUES BATTLE. Ayron Jones and The Way (above) and CD Woodbury Band will compete to go to Beale Street By Ernest A. Jasmin ejasmin@tacomaweekly.com

Ruston Way Waterfront is sure to be the loudest place in Tacoma on the Fourth of July, from the chest-rattling roar of stunt planes to the thunderous cacophony of the 10 p.m. fireworks show. Adding to that joyful noise is a small army of bands performing in six different areas, perhaps none more buzz-worthy than the Dukes Chowder House Blues Stage. That stage will be headlined by the final round of the South Sound Blues Association’s Back to Beale Street Blues Competition. In its ninth year, the SSBA’s battle of the bands awards its winners with all-expense-paid trips to the International Blues Challenge – essentially, the Super Bowl of American blues, which will next take place in January on Memphis’ historic Beale Street. “It’s definitely a big springboard,” SSBA President Gary Grape said. “When you’re back there, you’re in front of judges that are music buyers, that are radio people,

that are record label owners. You’ve got a whole cross-section. And when you win this thing you’re given an opportunity of a lifetime.” Last year’s winners were Tacoma blues and soul favorite, the Randy Oxford Band, and dynamic boogie-woogie keyboard player Arthur Migliazza. This year, Grape was excited to see a lot of fresh faces compete, including four teen bands affiliated with Puget Sound Music for Youth Association. “It was exciting to see these kids that didn’t know a whole lot about blues,” Grape said “(They) studied it, looked at the history of it, listened to it – wrote their own charts, maybe did some covers their way, and really put on a fine, 25-minute set. I was really proud of all the kids.” The youngest band to survive preliminary rounds is Emily Randolph & Oaklawn, its namesake an alumnus of NBC-TV’s “The Voice.” The 16-yearold Tacoma singer-songwriter was a member of Blake Shelton’s team on season five, and her debut EP, “Here We Go Again,”

can be found on iTunes. Randolph & Oaklawn will warm up with an appearance at Point Defiance Park during Taste of Taste of Tacoma, with their set scheduled for 1 p.m. June 27 on the Bowl Stage. The band is scheduled to go on at 6 p.m. during the Back to Beale Street finals. Competitors also include CD Woodbury Band (3:30 p.m.), a group that the Washington Blues Association dubbed “best new band” in 2010; Seattle’s Brian Lee and the Orbiters (4:45 p.m.) playing songs from their newest album, “In Orbit;” and Ayron Jones and The Way (7:15 p.m.) whose 2013 debut album, “Dream,” was produced by Seattle rap legend Sir Mix-ALot. Capping things off at 8:30 p.m. is King Kom Beaux, a veteran trio that features Doug Kerney on guitar, Billy Barner on drums and Joe Hendershot on bass. The winner will be announced at 9:30 p.m., before the fireworks. Find a full schedule of bands performing at Freedom Fair online at www. freedomfair.com/music.php.
