Public anger centered on jet noise over Coupeville accelerated this week but the latest round of complaints may be a non-issue, accord-ing to U.S. Navy officials.

On Monday, a firestorm erupted when members of the community appeared before the Island County commissioners to lobby for an extension of a public com-ment period for the Navy’s planned transition of expe-ditionary electronic attack squadrons at Whidbey Island Naval Air Station from the older EA-6B Prowler to the newer EA-18G Growler air-craft.

The board agreed to ask for an extension and Ted Brown, a spokesman for U.S. Fleet Forces Command, said the Navy has no problems honor-ing the request. However, he said there appears to be some misunderstanding about the proposal and the draft Environmental Assessment, or EA.

The transition will see an increase in the number of aircraft and operations but it only affects expeditionary squadrons, which are land based and don’t need to prac-tice aircraft carrier training at the practice strip, Outlying Field.

“These particular squad-rons don’t train at Coupeville and will not,” Brown said. “Therefore the EA has no impact on noise in Coupeville.”

Monday was the last day of the original two-week com-ment period and many in the standing-room only crowd at

the commissioners’ meeting in Coupeville said they had only just learned of the docu-ment that day.

Oak Harbor animal shelter nears closing date in 2013By JESSIE STENSLANDStaff reporter

Oak Harbor officials have less than a year to figure out how to deal with stray dogs and cats because the ramshackle shack that cur-rently houses the homeless pets is being shut down.

As a result, city officials are exploring ways of han-dling strays. They plan on issuing a request for pro-posals, or RFP, to find the right group or business to provide the service and possibly a facility.

The City Council dis-cussed the issue and made some preliminary deci-sions about the shape of the RFP during last week’s meeting.

“I believe it’s a solvable issue but it’s going to take some adult conversation and it’s going to take some planning,” Councilman Jim Campbell said.

The shelter is currently located in a Navy-owned building on the Seaplane Base. The city contracts with the group Whidbey Animals’ Improvement Foundation, or WAIF, to run the shelter.

In January, Capt. Jay Johnston, the commanding officer of Whidbey Island Naval Air Station, sent a letter to the city notifying officials that the building was being closed by the end of the year.

At the meeting last week, interim City Administrator Larry Cort said Navy offi-cials agreed to extend

the move-out date by six months to the end of June 2013.

Under an expiring agree-ment, the city has provid-ed the Navy with animal control services at base housing and the manage-ment of the animal shelter in exchange for the Navy allowing the city to use the building on the Seaplane base.

Whidbey Island’s animal control officer is asking ani-mal lovers to donate to a fund dedicated to helping abused or neglected farm animals.

Animal Control Officer Carol Barnes said she recently served a search warrant and seized two hors-es from a North Whidbey man after determining that the animals were being denied adequate food, nutri-tion and veterinarian care.

The mare and gelding appeared emaciated and malnourished. Barnes said she’s investigating the case which may result in animal cruelty charges.

The horses are currently at a secret location and are

doing OK.“Thanks to Robert

Moody, the large animal vet, and his staff for their care and compassion,” Barnes said.

The trouble, she said, is that the county doesn’t have any program or funding to care for horses or other large animals that have to be taken away from owners.

Barnes has set up a fund at Whidbey Island Bank. It’s called the WI Farm Animal Assistance Program. Donations are currently not tax deductible, but Barnes is working on filing the paperwork for nonprofits.

“Fortunately, we have a great number of animal lovers here on Whidbey Island,” she said.

Fund opened to help Whidbey’s farm animals

Carol Barnes, Island County animal control officer, seized two emaciated horses from North Whidbey. She’s started a fund to help care for horses and other animals in the future.

There is still time to regis-ter for the 6th annual Megan McClung Memorial Run, set for Saturday, Aug. 18 in a new location — downtown Oak Harbor.

After five years of running the annual 5 and 10K event on Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, the event will now begin at Windjammer Park in Oak Harbor, near the inter-section of S. Beeksma Drive and SW Bayshore Drive. The new course will parallel the beach around the harbor and

winds through the wharf area on Catalina Drive to intersect with the Maylor Point Trail on NAS Whidbey’s Seaplane Base.

The change in venue came about when Whidbey Island Naval Air Station withdrew its support for the event and denied permission to hold the race on base. The city of Oak Harbor quickly jumped in to host the memorial run, a move that bodes well for future expansion.

“We’ve been wanting to expand the event into a half marathon for a couple of

years, but we really couldn’t do that on base without dis-rupting the entire base,” said Michael McClung of Coupeville. “The opportunity now is we actually have room for a half marathon course.”

While the half marathon won’t begin until next year, runners this year will have the opportunity to do either the 10K run or the 5K run/walk. Cost to register is $40 and online registration will be available up to 24 hours before the event. Same-day registration begins at 8 a.m. Saturday morning and the runs begin at 10 a.m. This is a family-friendly event and chil-dren are welcome to partici-pate, as are dogs on leashes.

The event is held in honor of Maj. Megan McClung, the first female Marine Corps officer killed in combat dur-ing the Iraq War. She listed Coupeville as her home, which is where her parents live. Michael McClung said people all over the world still run in her memory.

“It’s a great thing. Megan

wanted people to be healthy and strong and knowing she’s impacted people across the country and around the world makes us feel real good,” he said. “She has reached out and touched more people in her 34 short years than we

ever have.”Proceeds from the memo-

rial run benefit the Semper Fi Fund, which provides finan-cial and other assistance to Marines, sailors and mem-bers of the Army, Air Force and Coast Guard serving in

support of the Marines.For information and to

register, go to www.megan mcclungmemorialrun.com or call Michael McClung at 360-320-3013.

PUBLIC NOTICENAVY ANNOUNCES PUBLICATION OF AN ENGINEERING EVALUATION/COST ANALYSIS FOR OPERABLE UNIT (OU) 5, AREA 1 AND SITE 52 BEACH LANDFILL, NAVAL AIR STATION WHIDBEY ISLAND (NASWI), OAK HARBOR, WA.

An Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) has been prepared to support the U.S. Navy’s decision for selecting a non-time-critical removal action (non-TCRA) at Operable Unit (OU) 5, Area 1 Beach Landfill located on Ault Field at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (NASWI), Oak Harbor, Washington. The overall response action selected for Area 1 is composed of two parts: Phase I TCRA and Phase II non-TCRA. The Phase I TCRA was completed in February 2012.

The primary goals of the non-TCRA are:

• Restore theremedyandprevent furthererosionof theseawallatAreas1andSite52as requiredbythe Record of Decision (ROD) issued by the Navy, Washington State Department of Ecology, and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 1996; and

• Includeaninnovative,sustainable,low-impactdesigntomeetthisgoal.

This EE/CA supports the Phase II, the non-TCRA portion of the permanent seawall repair that includes the development and implementation of a permanent seawall stabilization system. This system consists of dynamic stabilization of the foreshore and beach berm, static stabilization of the bluff face, static stabilization of the drainage gullies, and vegetative stabilization of the bluff crest and gully slopes.

The EE/CA evaluates and recommends the best alternative for the permanent seawall stabilization system.

Bright sunshine and enough barbecued pork to feed a small army proved the right recipe for thousands of smiling, greasy faces at the Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Free Pig Roast in Oak Harbor Sunday.

According to Scott Fraser, event organizer and owner of Fraser’s Gourmet Hideaway, the annual block party was as popular as ever with volunteers plating up free lunches for about 3,500 people.

It took more than 2,150 pounds of pork, 600 pounds of potato salad, 525 pounds of beans and about 510 pounds of pasta to do it, to name a few of the items served, but they managed to get it done with a little left to spare.

“We made sure we made enough to serve a small aircraft carrier,” Fraser laughed.

Five years running, the popular mid-day event fea-tures live music, commercial vendors, artistic demonstra-tions, a range of children’s activities, and of course, the ever-popular pork cook-off among backyard and profes-sional barbecuers.

Judging this year’s contest was Cheryl Johnston, Don Ingram, Jes Walker-Wyse, Ray Merrill and Henry Fox. Based on a 40-point system, pork samples were graded most heavily on taste but appearance and texture were also considered.

Picking a favorite was not easy.

“It’s delicious,” Merrill said. “It’s a very hard choice.”

“It’s so good,” agreed Walker-Wyse.

The judges were able to determine winners, however. In top barbecuer, Smoke Tree Barbecue owner Roger Anglum was able to unseat reigning champ J.D. Krueger of J.D.’s BBQ for the first place win. Krueger came in second while first-time com-petitor 2 Hogs and a Rooster took third.

Like all the professional competitors, the 2 Hogs and a Rooster crew began set-ting up shop and cooking on Saturday night. Hanging out in the parking lot was fun, said Rob Tull, one of three owners, but the best part of the event came the next day while serving.

“I like the customers reac-tion,” he said.

The name of the business is derived from physical appearances of Tull and his partners, John Prochaska and James Whipple. According to Tull, the name came to him in a moment of inspiration, and with no qualms from his friends, 2 Hogs and a Rooster was born.

Amateurs also had a chance to prove their grilling mettle in the backyard bar-becue contest. Competition among the handful of par-ticipants was friendly but people still had their eye on the prize, said griller Andrew Manning.

“We’re all competing for the same goal: brag-ging rights and first prize,” Manning said.

“It’s a load of fun,” he said.When the dust settled,

Fleet Reserve Association Branch 97 walked home with first while North Whidbey Fire and Rescue took sec-ond and Lightin’ Log and Smokin’ Hogs claimed third.

Finally, in the people’s choice division, ShoNuff took first, Krueger second and Oak Harbor Tavern

came in third.Judging by the smiles on

the faces of many in the crowd, the public had as good a time tasting the bar-becue master’s efforts as they did cooking it. Many, such as the Vaeth family, said they love the event and come back year after year.

“It’s the community,” Shamron Vaeth said. “It’s just nice that they do it. Plus, of course, it’s free food.”

Fraser said the spirit behind the block party is just that; getting together with the community, hav-ing a wonderful afternoon and thanking them for their continued support of down-town.

“It’s our way of saying thank you,” he said.

Fraser thanked the approximately 200 volun-teers that worked to put on this year’s event while also giving a special shout-out to events sponsors, especially Island Thrift, which gave $3,000. Without them and the many other sponsors that also contributed, the event would not have been possible.

Letters to the editorTrailer�owned� by�state�troopers

My name is Tommie Pillow and I am the presi-dent of the Washington State Patrol Troopers Association. I read with interest the let-ter of July 31 accusing Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen of using taxpayer property in her re-election campaign. I am writing to establish the truth of the matter and let the readers of the Whidbey News-Times know that Mary Margaret did no such thing.

The trailer that Mary Margaret marched with on the Fourth of July was NOT taxpayer property. It was the property of the Washington State Patrol Troopers Association, a pri-vate labor organization of troopers and sergeants in the Washington State Patrol. We drove our trailer up to join Mary Margaret in the parade because we enthusiastically support her for re-election

and wanted to show our sup-port to the people of Oak Harbor. Mary Margaret is a proven leader on law enforce-ment issues who serves with honor and integrity. She has been one of our champions in the legislature and the citi-zens of the 10th District and the whole state are fortunate to have an individual of her caliber in a leadership posi-tion.

What’s particularly strik-ing about these accusations about Mary Margaret’s use of the troopers’ trailer is that the association has also sent the trailer up to support our other endorsed candidates in the 10th District, Republicans Norma Smith and Dave Hayes. Barbara Bailey and her friends know this and they know better than to use our support of Mary Margaret in yet another one of their false smears against Mary Margaret.

Mary Margaret is a lead-er for law enforcement, for

the 10th District and for the entire state. The members of the Washington State Patrol Troopers Association are proud to support her.

Kelly�wrong� on�‘pay�to�play’

It was with pleasure and pride that I noted our recent Board of Island County Commissioners’ resolution supporting a Constitutional amendment to overturn the U.S. Supreme Court’s rul-ing permitting unlimited and undisclosed political cam-paign contributions.

Counties, cities and states across the land are register-ing their opposition to that Supreme Court decision. In Island County, Langley was the first town to go on record in defense of “we, the peo-ple,” and it is heartening that the Island County commis-sioners were not far behind. My thanks go to Helen Price

Johnson and Angie Homola for doing their part to limit the influence of money in politics.

Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of Commissioner Kelly Emerson, who cast the dis-senting vote. She doesn’t seem to realize that elected officials like herself have the most to lose from a “pay to play” system in which those with the most money can speak the loudest —- and the rest of us can never learn the identity of those wealthy interests.

Disclosure and transpar-ency are the twin pillars of a democratic government. Kelly Emerson should have been helping to hold up those pillars instead of push-ing them over. What can we expect from the Coupeville and Oak Harbor city coun-cils? I look forward to hear-ing them debate this critical issue.

Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer made the books of quo-tations by saying the economy would “reset at a lower level.” He was talking specifically about advertising rev-enue, but the quote has since been applied to virtually every level of the economy, both private and public.

The Great Recession shows little sign of ending, although economic eggheads claim it ended several years ago based on a set of numbers nobody cares about. In fact, unemployment is high and costs are beginning to soar. It could get worse, not better. Which is why it is time for the city of Oak Harbor to “reset” the way it does business.

At a strange city council meeting last week, a group of council members led by Rick Almberg made contradic-tory demands of Mayor Scott Dudley. First, they wanted him to hire department heads to replace the ones he has fired since taking office in January. Second, they demand-ed a hiring freeze in light of the “fiscal emergency” they declare some weeks ago due to declining tax revenues.

The mayor’s penchant for firing department heads has been criticized, including on this page, but it is in fact his right as the city’s chief elected official. He doesn’t want to immediately replace the department heads he cut. He feels the temporary replacements are doing a good job, saving the city money, and there’s no hurry to replace them.

Certain council members see things differently, as if experienced employees cannot do their jobs without a big boss overseeing their work. In fact, most people take pride in doing their jobs and city bosses should confine themselves to budgetary matters and long-term planning, and leave the good workers alone.

Oak Harbor presently has 24 open positions, which is said to be a record. Councilman Almberg is correct that a hiring freeze makes sense but wrong to demand immedi-ate replacement of department heads. Mayor Dudley is correct that it makes sense to get by with effective inter-im replacements until the budget emergency ends.

The fact that they agree but disagree says more about personal conflict than it does about city policy. Let the mayor make the hiring decisions while the council makes policy. It’s one way to “reset” city government in trying times.

More than 20 people testi-fied that the jet noise from operations at the airfield had become intolerable and begged the board to use its influence to officially ask for an extension.

“Our lives have literally been destroyed by these Navy overflights,” said Paula Spina, owner of the Crockett Barn off Fort Casey Road.

The idea of adding addi-tional aircraft and increasing flight operations is simply unacceptable, she said.

According to the assess-ment, the transition would occur over a two-year period, from 2012 to 2014. Three existing squadrons at the airbase, each with a comple-ment of four aircraft, would receive a fifth Growler under the plan.

A reserve squadron could also potentially be relocat-ed to Whidbey from Joint Base Andrews. It also would received a fifth jet.

The plan also calls for a hefty increase in total annual operations, which varies in number under three possi-ble alternatives. They range from an additional 1,961 operations per year to 2,178.

While there may have been some confusion about where these aircraft will fly, Spina and many others made it clear the existing noise has become more than just a nui-sance. Several people said it was even affecting their health.

Gerald Roberts said he has an existing and severe condi-tion and voiced serious con-cerns about how the flyovers

are impacting his health.“I don’t want to die from

this,” Roberts said.Others said the flyovers

were affecting their liveli-hood, a concern seconded by business leaders. Lynda Eccles, executive direc-tor of the Central Whidbey Chamber of Commerce, said jet noise is a real prob-lem and has heard firsthand from visitors in vacation rentals who said it was so bad that their children had to spend the weekend indoors.

“I appreciate our military but I think they are going to extremes now and we seri-ously have to look at this issue,” she said.

Still others said their com-plaints to the Navy aren’t taken seriously. Rosehip Farm and Garden owner Linda Bartlett, who said her employees have to wear ear protection while working, said their concerns have been met with disrespect or worse.

“One time, they actually targeted our farm after com-plaints of the noise,” she claimed. “I feel like as a com-munity, this is something we really need to discuss.”

Many people also com-plained about the new Growlers already stationed at the base. Although Navy officials maintain that stud-ies show the new jets to be quieter than their predeces-sors, many Central Whidbey residents disagree.

“The new jets hurt when flying over,” said Sharlyn Hubbard, a Holly Berry Road resident. “My insides feel like they are being cooked.”

Finally, there was a gen-eral consensus among the crowd that the public was not

adequately informed about the environmental assess-ment and the transition plans for the expeditionary squad-rons.

Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard noted that there was a July 27 press release announcing the public comment, but if it came to Town Hall she didn’t see a copy. She noted, however, the release did indicate that hard copies of the assess-

ment were available at librar-ies in Oak Harbor and La Conner, which resulted in some chuckling from the crowd.

Conard said she would like to comment on the Navy’s proposal but also needed more time to do so. She requested an extension.

Many made similar requests and Island County Commissioners Helen Price Johnson and Angie Homola

agreed to draft an official let-ter asking the Navy to con-sider the community’s peti-tion.

Commissioner Kelly Emerson abstained from the vote, saying she wanted to hear first from base officials. She said the Navy met its deadlines for the comment period. Also, she said she mentioned this in her news-letter and that none of her constituents were present at

Monday’s meeting.“I would not feel (I was)

properly representing them if I voted on this,” she said.

The public comment period has been extended to Aug. 31. Comments can be emailed to [email protected] or mailed to Naval Air Station Whidbey Island, Public Works Department Environmental Division, 1115 W. Lexington St., Oak Harbor.

the best option for provid-ing animal control services to Navy housing families,” she said. “These services will be obtained through the most effective and effi-cient method.”

A couple of members of the group Whidbey Animal Guild spoke at the meeting and urged coun-cil members to adopt pro-gressive policies that are beneficial to the animals. Bob Baker, a member of the group, said the city should have its own, pub-licly owned animal shel-ter.

“Requiring shelter con-tractors to provide build-ings is not always realis-

tic, fair or conducive to a cohesive, accountable system,” he said.

Steve Paysee, executive director of WAIF, said the group is willing to contin-ue working with the city. He explained that WAIF is in the process of building a new facility across the road from the Coupeville site. Dogs could be taken to the Coupeville shelter while the cat adoption cen-ter in Oak Harbor could be expanded to handle the felines.

Several council mem-bers also noted that a couple of individuals, including one who owns a kennel, have expressed interest in taking on the shelter contract.

Cort said the plan is to issue the RFP on or about

Pedestrians and bus rid-ers may have a safer way to cross Highway 20 on the eastern edge of Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve.

In its plans to re-align the intersection of Highway 20 with Parker Road, Island Transit officials hope to

someday dig a pedestrian tunnel, known as the Kineth Passage project, that will go underneath the busy highway. It isn’t known yet exactly where the tunnel is located and officials haven’t yet found the money needed to pay for the walkway.

While some Central Whidbey residents were concerned about the safe-

ty of a new intersection of Parker Road and Highway 20, some also wondered about the need for a tunnel.

Louise Harvey, who owns the Countryside Inn, locat-ed near the Island Transit headquarters, questioned during an Aug. 6 meeting whether such a tunnel is a good use of taxpayer dollars given that the state claimed at the same meeting it can’t afford to install a left-turn lane from the highway onto Parker Road.

Harvey said she already has problems with tres-passers and loiterers com-ing onto her property from nearby bus stops.

Island Transit plans to re-align the intersection of Parker and Old Smith Prairie roads and Highway 20. Officials want to close the two intersections and install a new road in the middle. They also want to add a “bike and ride,” sever-al parking spots and a kiosk informing visitors about Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve. Several nearby residents are critical of the changes because it lacks a left-turn lane from the highway onto Parker Road.

The proposed tunnel underneath Highway 20 would help connect nearby

trails and provide a safe place for pedestrians to cross the busy highway. The tunnel’s exact location isn’t decided yet, Island Transit director Martha Rose said.

Island Transit recently tried and failed to get grant money to pay for the approx-imate $1 million cost for the new tunnel and it isn’t known yet when such a proj-ect could be funded.

“It is a dream of the future,” said Coupeville Town Councilman and Island Transit board mem-ber Bob Clay said.

The Regional Transportation Planning Organization in late 2011 drafted a letter of support for Island Transit’s attempt to get federal funding fund-

ing to pay for research, plan-ning and engineering for the Kineth Passage tunnel.

Plans for the tunnel are in the very early stages. Donna Keeler, regional transpor-tation planner for Island County, said she hasn’t seen any plans yet for the pro-posed tunnel.

“Without knowing the design or full scale of the project, it’s hard to tell wheth-er review and approval from the public works depart-ment would be required (in addition to approval from the Washington State Department of Transportation),” Keeler said in an email. “The coun-ty’s planning and communi-ty development department may also need to look at it.”

Mary Catherine Akins

Our beloved mother, Mary Catherine Immel Akins, passed from this life August 8, 2012 in Oak Harbor, Wash. at the age of 91.

Mary was born on December 20, 1920 in Helena, Montana. Her par-ents were Amelia and Ernest Immel. Mary was a lively redheaded girl who enjoyed life. She would talk of her father, “the newspaper man”, and was always interested in his conversations with his cronies/colleagues.

On her way to work one cold winter day when Mary was in her twenties, she saw a man walking ahead of her whose warm winter coat she admired. As it turned out, the coat belonged to the brother of her friend Jean Akins Downing. It wasn’t long after the introductions that Mary and John Akins were a happy couple. They were married on June 23, 1945 in Helena, Montana. They soon moved to Seattle and later to Tacoma.

How do we talk about our mother, who she was, what she meant to us, her five children? In our Montlake, Seattle neighborhood her voice could be heard calling us in for dinner. She tied pennies in a handkerchief for school milk (some of us still carry handkerchiefs). As children will, we took her for granted, too busy run-ning around the neighbor-hood and being children to notice her sacrifices.

Decades later, we called her Saint Mary. She often

drove sick or infirm neigh-bors to appointments, vol-unteered at St. Charles Borromeo Church, and opened her ears and heart to those in need. After her children were grown she finished college and tutored English language learners. She brought many a lonely Mexican or Iranian exchange student home for dinner from her job at Tacoma Community College. Mary was wise and kind, a win-ning combination sustained by her deep Catholic faith.

Mary is survived by her five children; Barbara Thelen of Oak Harbor, John Immel Akins of Auburn, Fred Akins of Port Townsend, Marian Renvall of San Diego, Calif. and Ron Akins of Mercer Island. She is also survived by 13 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, John Creighton Akins.

A funeral mass will be served for Mary Catherine Akins at St. Charles Borromeo Church in Tacoma on Thursday, August 16, 2012, at 9:00 a.m. Family and friends are encouraged to share memories and condo-lences at www.whidbeyme-morial.com.

Race the Reserve director Deb Savalza called Saturday’s event “a tremendous suc-cess” as the Coupeville High School parent group for the class of 2013 achieved its objectives of raising funds for senior activities and putting Coupeville back on the state’s running map.

The event included 260 participants (285 regis-tered) in its three races, and Coupeville runners finished first in two.

James Steller, 35, captured the half marathon (1:24:07.5) over 94 other runners, and Greg Maher, 51, won the 114-person 5K (19:47.9).

Sammamish’s Brian Comer, 18, took the 51-per-son 10K (42:52.7). McKenzie Schneider, 17, of Oak Harbor was the top North or Central Whidbey runner in the 10K, finishing sixth (52:11.9).

Christen McCool, 32, of Portage, Mich., was the top female finisher in the half marathon and fifth overall (1:32.14.3). Langley’s Lillianna Stelling, 17, led the women in the 10K and placed third overall (43:37), and Abby Reed, 22, of Mechanicsburg, Penn., was the first female in the 5K and third overall

(20:33.6).Savalza said, “Finances

have yet to be reconciled but as race director I am declaring Race the Reserve Whidbey Island 2012 a tre-mendous success.”

She said the parent group hoped to develop a popular race based out of Coupeville after the Whidbey Marathon shifted to Oak Harbor several years ago. The 260 finishers was an increase of 223 over last year’s race, Dash for the Bash.

Dale Folkestad of Coupeville, the only runner to compete in the first 10 Whidbey Marathons, served as official starter for the Race the Reserve half marathon.

“The Road to Ebey’s Landing” photo awards, which included the race title, individual event, date and location, were courtesy of Qualified Panoramic photog-rapher M. Denis Hill, printed by Mjc Copy & Stationery and given to the top finish-ers.

Blue Fox Prints provided the race T-shirts.

Savalza said nearly 50 vol-unteers helped the race run smoothly.

For several hours Saturday, everybody visiting the Greenbank Farm turned a bit Scottish.

Caber tossing, bagpiping and dancing were some of the events that drew hundreds of people to the Whidbey Island Highland Games.

In its 14th year, the games showcase a variety of Celtic-themed athletic events includ-ing the caber toss, which fea-tures poles that range from 13 feet to 17 feet in length; the Scottish hammer; putting the stone, which weighs 17 pounds; and throwing weights for height and distance. The athletic games drew competi-tors from across the Puget Sound region, who compete through a circuit of Highland Games that take place every weekend throughout the summer and fall.

Jessica Larson, president of the Whidbey Island Celtic Society, said the Whidbey Island games aren’t the larg-est Scottish themed event in the region, but it’s been

described as the one with the most heart.

Bagpipers and drummers also spent the day in com-petition. They also teamed up for massed performances. Groups that performed were the Clan Gordon Pipe Band, the Kenmore and District Pipe Band, the Northwest Junior Pipe Band and the Washington Scottish Pipe Band.

Larson estimated approxi-mately 1,500 people came through the gates into the Highland Games.

Folks could watch high-land dancers, weapons dis-plays and the Cascade Comet Dogs. Larson also claimed success for the children’s activities, which included smaller scale throwing events to help spark their interest in the games and an appearance by the popular Balloon Fairy from Bellingham.

The money raised from the highland games benefits the Whidbey Island Celtic Society, which organizes the games as well as several edu-cational activities throughout the year.

The Whidbey Island Highland Games took place on a busy weekend that included the Coupeville Arts

and Crafts Festival, the North Whidbey Car Show and the Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast.

Larson said people were able to attend more than one of the events making for a fun two days.

“We’re always hoping peo-ple can make it the whole weekend,” Larson said.

Plans are underway for the game’s 15th anniversa-ry, which is scheduled for Saturday, Aug. 10, 2013 at the Greenbank Farm.

Thousands of people flowed into downtown Coupeville to enjoy one of the biggest festivals on Whidbey Island.

The Coupeville Arts and Crafts Festival took place Saturday and Sunday and drew hundreds of art-ists from across the country who brought their paintings, jewelry, ceramics, fabric work and more to the festival that filled the historic downtown. Booths lined both sides of Front and Coveland streets.

“They have some great stuff that we’ve bought before,” Coupeville resident Bill Larsen said while his daughters, Eva and Kate, both 2 and one-half, pushed a red wagon through the festival. He noted some of the photography and tin work that was on display.

Coupeville resident Heather Lewis was visiting Due Vestro, the booth operated by Coupeville glass

blower Lin Robertson. Lewis was watching her daughter, Briddie, search for a piece of glass that matched one she found last year.

“We love it. It’s mommy’s special day,” Lewis said about visiting the popular festival each year.

The festival also offered a chance for people to interact with local artists and watch them work. An “Artists in Action” area had paint-ers, quilters, a basket weaver and a blacksmith who would visit with curious spectators while producing their work.

“It looks like I better make anoth-er tripod, I just sold it,” Lewis said after spending time talking with someone who, it turned out, was interested in making a purchase.

The festival also featured an art show. Just up from the artists booths was a food court where peo-ple could enjoy lunch while listen-ing to live music in the lot behind the public library.

“It was a good, successful show,”

said Mike Dessert, president of the Coupeville Festival Association. He thanked the sponsors and the efforts of the approximately 300 volunteers, including some help from the Navy, in putting on the festival.

He didn’t have any hard num-bers available, but it looked like attendance was similar to last year’s festival. He noted that last year’s congestion problem, which includ-ed mile-long backups, had been solved. Festival organizers found additional lots and offered a free shuttle.

In its 48th year, the Coupeville Arts and Crafts Festival is one of the oldest, continuously operat-ing events in the state. In addition to being a showcase for artists of all types, it is also a much need-ed fund raiser that benefits the Central Whidbey community. The Coupeville Festival Association, which organized the annual event, has doled out $720,000 to the com-

munity over the years in the form of grants and scholarships. Deadline for grant applications is Friday, Oct. 24 and winners will be announced Dec. 3 during a Coupeville Festival Association board meeting. More information about the grants can be found at www.coupevillefestival.com/coupeville-community-proj-ect-grants.cfm.

It was a busy weekend on Whidbey Island as the Coupeville Arts and Crafts Festival was just one of a number of events that took place. The Highland Games in Greenbank and the North Whidbey Car Show in Oak Harbor took place Saturday. Sunday fea-tured the Fidalgo Avenue Block Party and Pig Roast that took place in downtown Oak Harbor.

The light-hearted events con-tinue this week when the Whidbey Island Fair starts Thursday and continues through Sunday.

Sounds of laughter, music and the occasional revving hotrod turned Windjammer Park into a festive area Saturday as rows and rows of cars gleamed under the sun.

The 27th annual North Whidbey Car Show, put on by the Rotary Club of Oak Harbor, drew constant crowds Saturday morning and afternoon as visitors checked out cars from nearly

every decade.The special feature this

year was Chevrolet Corvettes. Wendy Hodkin and her husband Dennis came out with their dark green 1971 Corvette, which earned first place for its category.

The Greenbank residents have owned the car for 15 to 20 years, Wendy Hodkin said.

“And we enjoy driving all over the island and we enjoy going to the shows,” Hodkin said.

Hodkin said she had always wanted a Corvette and as to the particular draw of owning a Corvette, Hodkin said, “You can’t afford them when you’re younger. I think they’re a popular car and I think with the aging baby boomers, their parents had one and they always wanted one.”

It’s an investment, Hodkin added.

“They get more expen-sive as the years go by and will never be reproduced,” Hodkin said.

Also out displaying his 1993 Corvette was Oak Harbor res-ident Bill Strowbridge. The bright yellow car was modi-fied for open road racing, a fact that couldn’t be missed by the roar of its engine and the license plate reading “Beast 2.” Strowbridge’s car won first in its category.

“It’s an old man’s toy,” Strowbridge laughed. “I’ve always been a car nut. I started in high school driving

in demolition derbies.” He’d been racing his Corvette recently, until his wife “had a heart to heart talk with me and said ‘enough, old man,’” Strowbridge said.

Like Hodkin, the desire to own a Corvette was born in Strowbridge’s youth. Upon seeing the “town rich kid” driving “this white car, and it had a magnificent sound,” Strowbridge was instantly enamored with the car. Although he didn’t get his first Corvette until 20 years later, he got to enjoy Corvettes by owning 19 or 20 of them.

“It’s a great hobby and I get so excited when I see the young generation and their cars. I think it keeps you young. It kept me young,” Strowbridge said.

A number of children wandered among the cars, pointing at different models as their parents took photos.

Rebecca�Olson�/�Whidbey�News-Times

Matt Braswell tells his son, Brendan Braswell, 8, about the 1921 Dodge Brothers Touring Car at the North Whidbey Car Show.

‘Vettes steal the show in Oak HarborOne such pair was Brendan

Braswell, 8, and his dad, Matt Braswell. Matt kneeled beside his son to tell him about a 1921 Dodge Brothers Touring Car owned by Jim and Laura Scharf.

It was their first time going to the car show and Brendan said they came just to check it out.

“He likes all the red ones,” Matt said of Brendan. As for Brendan’s dream car, he didn’t care what model it was, as long as it’s a “fast one,” Brendan said.

Pete and Candace Griffin found their dream car, and for a great deal. They sat beside their black 1968 Pontiac Ventura, which they bought for about $3,000 three and one-half years ago.

“This one is very rare, you just don’t find them, but we did see it just sitting next to an old business,” Pete said, adding that the owner was more than happy to get rid

of it because it was “taking up space.”

“It was kind of a rust buck-et when we bought it,” Pete said. They did all the work themselves and their labor yielded the shining car that received much attention from viewers.

“I think the thing I like most about it is you don’t see many of them ever…. And the public likes it so that’s nice,” Pete said.

“The car show here has just been wonderful,” Candace said. “You get lots of people and sunshine and everything is taken care of. It’s really wonderful.” This is the third time they’ve taken part in the show.

“It was another good suc-cess,” said Steven Glade, pub-lic information official for the Rotary Club. “We had a lot of cars, a lot of variety and the public were really enjoying themselves and that’s what we want.”

About 240 cars came this year, which is similar to last year’s event, Glade said. Although the show was free, any money raised will fund

the club’s annual scholar-ships for Oak Harbor High School students.

The hot, sunny weather was a joyous relief for Glade and participants alike.

“(The participants) had been there since 7 in the morning and looked like girls getting ready for prom,” Glade said, adding that rain would have distressed the car owners.

Each year, the Rotary Club puts the show on as a service to the community, Glade said. Not only is it free to the pub-lic, but it helps bring people from out of town.

“It fills up the hotels and restaurants,” Glade said, add-ing that people even came from British Columbia. A free shuttle took people down-town.

“That was another feature, to try to introduce people to downtown because it’s so beautiful,” Glade said.

By REBECCA OLSONStaff reporter

Sounds of laughter, music and the occasional revving hotrod turned Windjammer Park into a festive area Saturday as rows and rows of cars gleamed under the sun.

The 27th annual North Whidbey Car Show, put on by the Rotary Club of Oak Harbor, drew constant crowds Saturday morning and afternoon as visitors checked out cars from nearly

every decade.The special feature this

year was Chevrolet Corvettes. Wendy Hodkin and her husband Dennis came out with their dark green 1971 Corvette, which earned first place for its category.

The Greenbank residents have owned the car for 15 to 20 years, Wendy Hodkin said.

“And we enjoy driving all over the island and we enjoy going to the shows,” Hodkin said.

Hodkin said she had always wanted a Corvette and as to the particular draw of owning a Corvette, Hodkin said, “You can’t afford them when you’re younger. I think they’re a popular car and I think with the aging baby boomers, their parents had one and they always wanted one.”

It’s an investment, Hodkin added.

“They get more expen-sive as the years go by and will never be reproduced,” Hodkin said.

Also out displaying his 1993 Corvette was Oak Harbor res-ident Bill Strowbridge. The bright yellow car was modi-fied for open road racing, a fact that couldn’t be missed by the roar of its engine and the license plate reading “Beast 2.” Strowbridge’s car won first in its category.

“It’s an old man’s toy,” Strowbridge laughed. “I’ve always been a car nut. I started in high school driving

in demolition derbies.” He’d been racing his Corvette recently, until his wife “had a heart to heart talk with me and said ‘enough, old man,’” Strowbridge said.

Like Hodkin, the desire to own a Corvette was born in Strowbridge’s youth. Upon seeing the “town rich kid” driving “this white car, and it had a magnificent sound,” Strowbridge was instantly enamored with the car. Although he didn’t get his first Corvette until 20 years later, he got to enjoy Corvettes by owning 19 or 20 of them.

“It’s a great hobby and I get so excited when I see the young generation and their cars. I think it keeps you young. It kept me young,” Strowbridge said.

A number of children wandered among the cars, pointing at different models as their parents took photos.

For the first time since 2010, the historic Ferry House, located in Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve, will open briefly to the public.

The Ferry House will open to the public on Saturday, Aug. 18 as part of a fund-raiser for the Ebey’s Forever Fund. It will provide a chance for residents to take guided tours of the historic building and enjoy a picnic with local food and music, according to a news release.

General admission tickets cost $75 for the event that goes from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m.

The Ferry House was built in 1860 on the donation land claim of Isaac Ebey.

Admission tickets for the day include a dinner by Serendipity Catering, local music and a raffle. Docents from the Jacob Ebey House will lead tours of the house from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. The docents have expanded their understanding of the Reserve’s history through the documented experiences of the Ebey family.

A limited number of “Golden Tickets” are avail-able. It addition to the picnic, people will also participate in an intimate tour of three build-ings on the National Historic Register: the Comstock Barn built in 1939, the Engle Water Tower built in 1911 and the Sheepherder’s House built around 1900. Golden tickets are $200 per person or $350 per couple.

The picnic and tours will

also serve to raise money for the Ebey’s Forever Fund, which was established to help owners of historic homes within the Reserve offset the costs needed to repair and rehabilitate their structures.

An anonymous donor has offered a $75,000 challenge for the yearly fundraiser for the Ebey’s Forever Fund. The donor will match every dollar raised in 2012 up to the $75,000 mark. Proceeds from

the tickets will be matched dollar for dollar.

Tickets are available by going to www.ebeys foreverfund.org or by calling the Trust Board of Ebey’s Landing at 678-6084.
