Safe n’ Slide

Lake Chelan This Week

Slidewaters Lake Chelan is a summer staple, but what does it take to run the fun?

By Chris Danko Lake Chelan This Week Children laugh and play in the cool waters of the pool as the crystal-clear waves roll over them, relieving them from the burning rays of the summer sun. These rays glisten and shine off of the water droplets that fill the air as the vistors of Slidewaters splash about. The masses of people and the spray of water make it nearly impossible for the average person to make anything out of the aquatic chaos, but Slidewaters lifeguards aren’t your average people.

Every morning, a team of 25 dedicated employees make their way into the park at 9 a.m. and head to the staff room, where they will discuss the safety topic for the day. Sixty lifeguards are employed by Slidewater in total, with each lifeguard working only three days a week.

“We touch up on things we need to reinforce, or if there’s a problem in the park the week before we address it,” lifeguard Markus Stoll said.

After the meeting, the group does a team cheer before heading to their assigned stations. Each lifeguard operates on a 30 minute shift, rotating through all the slides at the park.

“My least favorite station is the bottom of Thunder

Rapids,” Stoll said. “You have to look at the pool, and kids are always the most rowdy on Thunder Rapids and like to throw other kids down the slide.”

Stoll’s fellow lifeguard Erin Otruba has a different opinion of the ride. “[My favorite station is] Thunder Rapids because you get to interact with people and push people down the slide on the tubes,” Otruba said. “You can see how excited they are as they go down.”

At their stations, the lifeguards are trained to spot any kind of situation that could lead to injury.

“You want to look for risk factors, kids struggling, things that could lead to a worse situation,” Otruba said.

“Kids who hang on to the wall, kids who won’t put their faces in the water because they’re uncomfortable. You want to catch those before they become problems.”

One of those situations could arise from patrons being stuck in one of the many water slides.

“Occasionally, some people will get stuck on the main four slides,” Otruba said with a laugh. “They just slow down and get stuck. Usually they just come out on their own, sometimes you have to go in and give them a push.

It’s never really an emergency situation.”

There are nine body slides, two tube rides and a

INSIDE STORY

“Just today I had to get in and help a kid get out of the water. You have to be ready for that at all times.”

—Erin Otruba, lifeguard “The biggest thing for me is knowing that things do happen, and you have to be ready for that,” Otruba said. “Just today I had to get in and help a kid get out of the water. You have to be ready for that at all times. I have to remember that I could potentially save lives by paying attention.”

Second-year Slidewaters employee Maddie Steitz has experienced the trauma of pool accidents first hand.

“Lifeguarding is important to me. I was in the class where Antonio Reyes drowned in at Wenatchee High School before I was certified,” Steitz said. “Becoming certified meant even more to me because every time I enforce rules or something happens, it reminds me of that situation, and it gives me that much more reasoning behind that job. It’s not just a high school job for me. It really has an impact and makes a difference.”

Safety is one of the three core values of Slidewaters, the other two being cleanliness and courtesy.

To become certified as a lifeguard, Steitz and all the other lifeguards had to go through more than 25 hours of training with the Red Cross. Over the course of training, lifeguards learn how to administer CPR and First Aid, how to care for head, neck and spinal injuries, as well as water rescue skills.

‘At Slidewaters, the safety that we’re concerned with is a lot different than a regular pool, Steitz said.

“The deepest water at slidewaters is 3.5 to 4 feet where a regular pool is 12 feet. There’s more of a risk at Slidewaters LET’S SLIDE of hitting your head going Above: The lifeguard crew at Slidewaters does a team cheer before splitting off to their down a slide versus stations each morning.

Lake Chelan This Week

Rocky Pond Winery opens its doors to downtown Chelan

By Emily Cieslak Lake Chelan This Week If Rocky Pond Winery was a person, it would have just turned 21 years old.

It had its childhood years of getting up on its feet — growing grapes in Lake Chelan— its teenage years of risk and experimentation — planting the only vineyard in Orondo and trying out winemaking — and this year, having opened tasting rooms in Woodinville and downtown Chelan, it has “blossomed” into adulthood.

“Every business has to go through those pesky growing years, but now we are at the point where it’s going to be really fun,” Michelle Duffenhorst, who owns the winery with her husband Dave, said. “We are at this point where we are producing great wine, so the question is how are we going to celebrate it?”

Highly valuing the opportunity for community that

comes with a winery, Michelle invites wine lovers to join in the celebration as “extended family.” Right in the center of downtown Chelan, Rocky Pond welcomes visitors of all wine backgrounds to learn what’s happening in their backyard — Orondo and the Pacific Northwest at large.

“There is a genuine education and excitement we have about wine,” Tova MacLennan, Sales and Marketing, said. “It’s not about drinking. It’s about really understanding the land, the grapes and your own palette and why they are created that way.”

The Duffenhorsts’ passion for wine stems back to days biking through France and Italy, where they witnessed wine as a celebration of family and land. Moving to Orondo, they wanted to share that experience with people here.

“The whole thing that Dave and I really enjoy is

the fact that you can get people together and enjoy your wines,” Michelle said.

For Dave, who comes from Idaho with a farming background, purchasing the Clos CheValle vineyard in Chelan was a way to get back to cultivating the land. Back in 2009, they planned to grow grapes only to sell. But when winemaker Ron Bunnell told them about the potential of the terroir in Chelan and around their house on the Columbia River, they decided to make their own wines from both sites.

“That’s why it has been such a gamble.

No one has made wine from Orondo before.

Anytime that you plant anything you are taking a risk,” MacLennan said. “You never know with wine. You never know until it’s in the bottle, ready to pour. It changes, it develops.”

Not only was the undertaking risky, it was difficult. Previously underdeveloped sagebrush, the land by their house had to be broken and cultivated by the Duffenhorsts for planting. But hard work does not come without reward. The rocks they dug up gave fodder for a fountain/ irrigation system as well as for their brand name and logo, Rocky Pond.

“My husband and I and our girls started planting, and we had a weekend where we we got

wine samples exceeded their expectations. They can’t wait to release around six varieties this upcoming year, but are even more excited that they now have a space to serve them in Chelan.

Walker was pulled to Lake Chelan by his affinity for the Pacific Northwest.

“I like the wines that are from here, and I like the culture, the people,” Walker said. “It is a pretty killer vintage site and great people. Good people, good wine and good fruit.”

From its beginning, Rocky Pond Winery has put quality over quantity and still intends to be boutique. But in no way do they see themselves getting bored with small lot production. Their party has just started and you are invited.

“We are Washington wine, and, therefore, we are approachable,” MacLennan said. “If someone doesn’t know anything about [wine], we are willing to talk about it. If they know a lot about it, we will geek out about it. That’s what we do.”

How to Start a Fire

By Lisa Lutz “How to Start a Fire integrates Lutz’s trademark humor, quippy dialog, and quirky characters with a story of three college friends who meet in Santa Cruz in 1993. Readers will fall in love with these three women as they experience failed marriages, career decisions, and other significant life events. Those who are new to Lutz will gobble up this standalone entry and then race to their bookstore to begin reading about the Spellman family in her earlier bestselling series.”

—Terry Gilman, Mysterious Galaxy, San Diego

Church of Marvels

By Leslie Parry “In this page-turner of a debut very little is what it first appears to be. Set in Coney Island and Manhattan at the end of the 19th century, Church of Marvels is populated with carnival folk and others living on the edge of society with either much to hide or much to discover.

The characters are richly drawn and their circumstances exceptionally intriguing as they seek and find the complicated truths of their lives in the dark underbelly of New York.”

—Cathy Langer, Tattered Cover Book Store, Denver

Circling the Sun

By Paula McLain “Reading Circling the Sun reminded me of the deep pleasure of solid storytelling: the vast landscape of colonial Kenya, complicated and compelling historical characters, love, suffering, and adventure combine to create a captivating narrative. McLain imagines the African childhood and early adulthood of real-life horse trainer and pioneering female aviator, Beryl Markham, as well as her social milieu which included Denys Finch Hatton and Karen Blixen, who, as Isak Dinesen, wrote Out of Africa. Markham lived a fascinating and uncompromising life filled with danger, ill-fated romance, and stunning bravery, and McLain does justice to her memory with this sensitive and beautifully written portrayal.”
