Helping a feathered friend

Dear Editor,In early summer, my husband

and I returned from church to find an eagle in the driveway. Thinking it would fly away soon, I got out to take a photo. It hobbled on unsteady talons to the edge of the woods and stayed there.

Calls were made to the police, fish and wildlife, Port Townsend and Sequim. Each gave the succeeding number to call. Being a Sunday, most of the an-swers were by automation. The Sequim Raptor Center was given a callback message.

I decided to read my book and wait. Shortly, an odd sound was heard out by the garage. Our eagle was sitting on the concrete. Soon, Jaye Moore called from Sequim. “Keep it visual! We’ll be out in several hours!”

OK. Keep it visual. I found a folding chair and went outside to eaglesit. Keeping my distance, I talked, sang and prayed to that sweet, nervous ball of black fur. Little by little, the chair came

to within a couple of feet of my charge. Trying to look for physi-cal damage, there didn’t seem to be any. BUT, WHY couldn’t it fly?

About three hours later, Jaye and Gary arrived. By then, the eagle had walked to the back porch and cried up to the eagle in the nest tree. Sensing that some-thing was about to happen with Jaye and Gary, it walked again to the woods. You could see its little backside. Jaye had a large towel with her. The strategy was to nosedive into the woods and fall on the eagle with the towel! It worked! Out came Jaye and our eagle.

Here is the story. Our little one was less than a month old. Its chest bone was sticking out, meaning that its sibling was tak-ing most of the food. That sib-ling probably pushed it out of the nest. Never had it walked!! And yet it stayed with me for hours!!

It reminded me of the time my husband and I were in Ant-arctica with the penguins near the Russian site. A huge, noisy plane landed. Then, it took off again, scaring a little penguin that looked to us for refuge. It,

like the eagle, stayed very close.Jaye took “Little Barbie”

(she named it) to the Sequim Raptor Center. Another eagle was there. The two bonded and our eagle was taught to eat. Later, they were taken to the Bainbridge Raptor Center for a larger cage. Any day now, the release should come. We are hoping that “Little Barbie” will be released in Sekiu.

School board member explains resignation

Dear Editor,In fairness to the community

of Forks, I feel I should explain why I resigned from my school board position from QVSD. I was notified on 10-4-15, from a concerned parent, about a serious staff misconduct allegation that had allegedly taken place.

I reported this to QVSD and was assured that an investigation already had been started and they were informed of the situation, which they had, on both counts. I requested administrative leave for the staff involved during the investigation and an outside source to do the investigation, I

was told it would be dealt with “in house.”

The investigation was com-pleted in house within a week’s time and we were briefed about the outcome at the following school board meeting on 10-13-15. I did not agree with the outcome of the investigation and how quickly it was handled. I felt it should have been pursued fur-ther and exhausted of any doubts, this led to the ultimate decision of my resignation. I could not consciously support and justify the decision that was made by the QVSD Administration.

I felt that keeping FHS stu-dents safe, in a positive learning environment should have been the No. 1 priority. By failing to do this we failed to adhere to the QVSD mission statement, RESPECT, COMMITMENT and INTEGRITY. I turned my resignation in on 10-14-15 and at this time I was told the in-vestigation would be re-opened and an outside source would be doing the investigation, which is what I had initially requested. I was asked at this time, “How do you think it looks to FHS stu-dents when they see two board members resign within a week?” My response was, “How do you think it looks to FHS students when staff misconduct occurs, the kids all know about it and see nothing being done?”

Thank you for allowing me to be the District 4 representative these past five years, and on a positive note, you also will see me around at the games and FHS events to support the kids.

Letters TO THE EditorIt’s time to speak up!

Make your voice heard on the Olympic Peninsula by Nov. 12!

Every few years, anglers have an opportunity to shape the rules and regulations for winter steelhead on the Olym-pic Peninsula. This is one of those years.

If you have fished steel-head on the streams of the Olympic Peninsula in the last 8-10 years, then you know that times have changed. The amount of anglers has increased tremendously with the closures of many streams from around the state, bring-ing the increased pressure to the streams of the peninsula. If you are an avid steelhead fisherman, then you have to ask yourself how long can these streams take this pres-sure without having a negative impact on these populations.

There is a large contingent group of anglers from out-side the area that is trying to change the way that we do things here on the Olympic Peninsula. These changes will have a very dramatic change to our economy, our local guides and the majority of our angling visitors.

As times change we must also change to make sure that we have runs of salmon and steelhead forever for all user groups and all ages for years to come.

The following rules are a few of the big changes being

Kathryn Rose Shingleton of Clallam Bay passed away on November 6th, 2015.

She was born in Aberdeen, Washington on December 31, 1948 to John and Audrey Manes.

Kathy spent the majority of her life in the Clallam Bay area. She was an integral part of Clallam Bay School and

Cape Flattery School District since 1985. She loved being a part of the school and community activities.

She was an incredibly giving and selfl ess individual, always thinking of the people around her and supporting the community. Her laugh could be heard across a room full of people and her welcoming smile would brighten your day. She loved to travel and spend time with her grandchildren, watching them play sports and perform in plays and musical events.

She is survived by her husband of 49 years, Jim Shingleton; her son James Shingleton (Bridget); her daughter Kathleen Winter (Matt); and grandchildren Audrey Shingleton, Alec Shingleton, Aidyn Shingleton, Mikiah Winter and Kiley Winter.

A celebration of life potluck will be held at the Clallam Bay Community Center on Saturday, November 21, 2015

at 1:00 p.m.Contributions can be made to the Clallam Bay

proposed.1. Rule #48: Prohibit wild

steelhead harvest on the rivers of the Olympic Peninsula.

a. The runs of steelhead on the Quillayute system and Clearwater River are healthy and do not warrant such ac-tion. The Hoh River has been having an issue with meeting escapement in only half of the last 15 years, but anglers have been doing their own con-servation moves by releasing most all wild fish caught on the Hoh.

2. Rule #47: Implementing selective gear rules during the wild winter steelhead fishery.

a. This basically means that the it will be no bait during the wild winter steelhead portion of the run, so after Feb. 15 when the most wild steelhead are present and also the most anglers, both guided and unguided, will be pursu-ing wild steelhead.

b. This does have to be an all or nothing rule. I believe that we can increase some of the selective gear areas but still al-low some of each river to have sections to be fished with bait.

c. This will be a large impact to the general populace of steelhead fisherman and will result in some major impacts to the local economy.

3. Rule #46: Identifying one river section to experiment

Mr. and Mrs. Darrel Gaydeski

are proud to announce the engagement of their daughter

Carlyn Marie Gaydeski to

Marcus Clifford Beebe, son of

Mr. Dave Beebe and Ms. Donnelle Warren.

They will be married in Puerto Morelos, Mexico on January 28th, 2016.

with a “no Fishing from a Floating Device” rule.

a. This is being proposed for the upper Hoh from Morgan’s Crossing to the park bound-ary. This will allow only bank anglers to fish this stretch of river and no boat anglers. This will be a large impact to the local guides and all boat anglers that want to float through this beautiful section of the river and fish out of their boat.

b. It will also take away the ability for anglers who cannot wade to fish this section.

c. If this rule is one that we need to try to reduce encoun-ters with wild steelhead and give them some refuge, then we need to do some creel collection data in the specific area to be tested for effective-ness.

Make sure to let the game commission know what this fishery means to you as an angler, a business owner or just a concerned citizen.

Make your comments heard by the Washington Fish and Wildlife Commission. You can go to wdfw.wa.gov/fish-ing/regulations/rule_propos-als/2016-2017/proposals.php?RegionID=2

For an opportunity to give public testimony on these rule proposals, be sure to attend the WDFW Commis-sion meeting on Nov. 14 at 8 a.m. in the Natural Resources Building, Room 172, 1111 Washington St. SE, Olympia.

OpiniOnTHE REAL FORKS

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR POLICYThe Forks Forum belongs to the readers of the newspaper. The opinion section is the

place where reader thoughts appear as letters to the editor. Letters longer than 300 words are sent back to the writer for revision. We only edit for spelling and grammar. Any substantial changes are sent to the letter writer for revision. While we strive to publish all letters, those focusing on local issues take precedence over statewide or national issues. No personal attacks or unsubstantiated allegations are accepted. Those letters are returned to the writer with an explanation why the letter is not going to run in its existing form.

Deadline for letters to appear is noon the Monday before publication. Letters are published on a space-available basis, with time-sensitive letters on local issues taking first priority. There are times, therefore, when a letter might not appear for a week or two.

Letters to the editor can be mailed to the Forks Forum, PO Box 300, Forks, WA 8331; e-mailed to [email protected]; faxed to 374-5739; or dropped off at our office at 44 S. Forks Ave. All letters must have a name, address and telephone number for verification purposes. Only the writer’s name and hometown are printed in the newspaper.

Rick BartForks Police Department

Getting yelled at on the phone is never a good thing to go through. Our natural tendency is to: 1) yell back or; 2) hang up. But, that never solves anything and is no way to end a conversation, even if the conversation is mostly one-sided. Reading about an angry caller’s conversation in the paper is always interesting and sometimes needs some fact checking.

Despite the angry writer’s opinion, the Forks Police De-partment consists of some very dedicated and hard-working people. These people are your friends and neighbors, and they work very long hours, alone with no back-up.

They do not make a lot of money to keep us as safe as they can and have old equip-ment. They can’t be in two places at once and are required to complete just about every job in law enforcement (from patrol officer to detective, to crime scene investigator) by themselves.

They are understaffed and are doing the best job they can, and in most instances, a very good job. That does not mean that there is no room for im-provement. Through training and learning from our mistakes we are getting better.

The stress of the job can take its toll and sometimes mis-takes are made because they are exhausted from 10 to 12 hours of work. Let me say that everyone in the police depart-ment, prosecutors’ office and court are working very hard trying to do the right thing. We are fortunate to have so many professional people in our local Justice System. Yes, that includes the Prosecutor and the District Court Judge.

Property crime in Forks has been (for the most part) going down or has shown no signifi-cant increases for some time. Over time many of the thieves and “trouble makers” have been identified and arrested for one thing or another. They have been processed through

the court system and held responsible for their acts. Your police officers know most of these scofflaws and can sort out an incident and make an arrest quickly. Occasionally, it takes a little more time to fig-ure out who the suspect(s) are and take care of the problem. Many have learned they do not want to face our judge more than once!

However, there is a real problem in town that everyone knows about, but is so far not willing to try to do something about: drug addiction. Many of our children, family members, neighbors and relatives are ad-dicted to one drug or another. This addiction has resulted in a lifestyle of theft, lying, assault, bad driving and a higher crime rate than we should have.

We need to begin to do the small things to bring this ad-diction rate (crime rate) down. I believe this process begins at home.

How many of us know a family member or relative who is using heroin, meth or some other illegal substance? How many of us know a neighbor or friend who is strung out on drugs? How many of us can point out other members of this small community who are us-ing/selling drugs? How many of us have genuinely attempted to help them get treatment?

This is a small, tight com-munity and we can begin to decrease our drug addiction levels if we try. Talk to your kids, your families, your friends and neighbors and let’s find ways to make drug deal-ers’ lives in town uncomfort-able. The “fences” who accept stolen property around town also deal in drugs. Do you know of one?

Block watches are very suc-cessful in reducing crime activ-ity. It takes time, but eventually if a neighborhood organizes and spends the time and effort, most drug users and dealers will discontinue their activ-ity in the neighborhoods that watch and report. They don’t want to be caught.

Families that intercede for one of their own (who is ad-

Letter to the Forks Forum dicted and get the treatment they need) find happiness. For each recovery in a community the crime rate goes down!

For each recovery business gets better. For every recovery we are all safer. We have many jail trusties who are trying to recover from addiction. I have found all of them to be good people who are trying very hard to do the right things. They are all part of this com-munity and someone’s family. Our judge and prosecutor know that and are trying to help them. We need to help them succeed, too.

So, please stop blaming the police, the prosecutors and judges for a problem we are all part of. We need to all be part of the solution. Sure, the criminal justice system is very frustrating. It is slow and cum-bersome. But, attacking the system that tries to protect us all is no answer to what I see as the underlying issue. Until we all admit there is a real drug addiction problem in our community, and do something

By Christy Rasmussen-Ford

Back in 1995, a love like no other was forming at Forks Elementary School. I was in the fifth grade and I had a huge crush on a boy in my class. Being a very creative (and original) writer from birth it seems, I sent a note to my crush asking him to check yes or no if he wanted to go out with me.

Much to my 10-year-old heart’s desire, my crush checked yes and our relation-ship progressed like wildfire. By wildfire, I mean that we progressed no further beyond the “asking out” stage. He played kickball every day at recess and I … well, I don’t really know what I did during re-cess at that time … probably participated in the fifth-grade gossip circle.

Side note: I know that there is a good chance that I gossiped back then, but I’m

not sure what 10 year olds gossip about? “Did you see that Sarah had a butterscotch pudding at lunch today? Just yesterday she told everyone how much she hated butterscotch pudding!”

Anyway, fast forward to my junior year at Forks High School. For whatever reason, I suddenly remembered my fifth-grade relationship. I saw him in school and asked if he remembered the note that sealed our status as boyfriend and girlfriend. He laughed and said that he remembered. “Did we ever break up?” I asked. “I don’t think so. We never talked about it ever again.”

Realizing that we had technically been in a relationship for seven years, I immediately demanded a ring from this boy (man now). I refused to wait any longer. If he didn’t know if I was wife material after this long, he would never know! I would not allow him to string me along with no plans of marriage.

I cannot quote his exact response to my demands. If you knew him, you would agree that his wonderful sense of humor some-times included words not always appropriate for a newspaper, but to paraphrase; “Oh heavens no! You’ve been an unfaithful floozy (I love that word by the way)! I’ve known about your other boyfriends.”

Funny enough, we did not technically end our relationship at that time.

A few years later, my “boyfriend” went overseas to fight for our country. As they cliché-ishly (not a real word) say, “All gave some and some gave all.” Jason Hanson gave all. Sadly, he left behind hundreds of people who loved and adored him. I’m proud to say that I was his pretend girlfriend for 10ish years and his real friend for just as long. Needless to say, he will always be one of my favorite veterans, along with my very real husband.

It seems a little odd to say “HAPPY Veterans Day” but I don’t know a better alternative so I will just say thank you. Thank you to Jason Hanson and everyone else who has given anything and everything. Your service is greatly appreciated.

For tips on writing the perfect love letter, or for questions or comments, please e-mail me at [email protected].

Joel Robert Sisson, 69, husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather, and treasured friend, passed peacefully on September 28, 2015, surrounded by those he loved.

Joel was born May 3, 1946, to Betty Mae and Robert William Sisson in Port Angeles. Washington. Joel was a proud member of the Upper Elwha River pioneer family (Dewitt

and Nettie Sisson) who owned and operated the Mountain Inn, where they horse-packed people and supplies into the Olympics. He attended local schools and graduated from Port Angeles High School in 1964.

His roots were strong on the Olympic Peninsula and rich in history. His knowledge of the area allowed him to navigate every highway, road, trail, creek and river with ease.

Joel was well-known locally for his tremendous generosity, kindness, hard work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit. Beginning at an early age, Joel “aspired” to publish the neighborhood Fairmount Neighborhood Daily Blab and gained “valuable experience” where he sold peanut butter and jelly sandwiches to his schoolmates at Lincoln School.

As a young man, Joel worked for his father in the logging industry often waking up at 4 a.m. to ride the crew bus. He held various jobs throughout the years such as a longshoreman, demolition expert, Pen Ply employee, Puget Sound Log Scaling, Grays Harbor Log Scaling and Green Crow log buyer/forester. He also co-owned and operated the Peninsula Scaling Bureau.

Later in life, Joel’s considerable initiative, determination and drive guided him to land clearing and development, road construction and bridge building. He craved learning new things.

Joel was an integral part of the Crescent Bay Lions Clubhouse and Playfield success. He was a charter member and served as the Crescent Bay Lions Club President 1979-1980 and 1993-1994. Joel’s dedication awarded him the first receipient of the Crescent Bay Lions International Lion of the year for 1978-1979.

He was a proud member of the Washington National Guard for six years. During Joel’s training and drilling, the other members nicknamed him “Gravy Joel” for his compelling consumption of the guard’s finest country gravy.

Joel was passionate about the outdoors and loved water skiing, jet skiing, hiking, kayaking, edible gardening, classic cars, and animals. Joel was an avid storyteller and reader and all who knew him loved his sense of humor. One of his greatest achievements was water skiing across the Straits of Juan de Fuca and building their custom log home. Joel hand picked the logs from the high country of the South Fork Sol Duc River.

When Joel was diagnosed with cancer, he demonstrated incredible strength and courage. “But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31. He refused to speak words of defeat. He did not complain about how sick and weak he felt, or how hopeless the situation looked. He continued to share his talents and personality to the end.

He is survived by his wife Melissa; mother Betty; son Bill; stepdaughter Christine Perry, sister Diane Edwards (Jim); nieces Janell (Jerry), Kerie and Lauren; nephews Alex, Andrew, Justin (Scarlet), Matt and Ryan; one grandchild and two great nephews.

A celebration of Joel’s life will be held on Saturday, November 21, 2015, at 1 p.m. at the Independent Bible Church, 116 East Ahlvers Road, Port Angeles, WA.

A special thank you to the staff at the Olympic Medical Cancer Center and Dr. Curt Norman.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to your favorite charity or Joel Sisson Scholarship Fund, care of Crescent Bay Lions Club, P.O. Box 20, Joyce WA 98363.

EPIC DUMP AT WINDFALLThis photo should have the international symbol for no across it. This illegal dump at Windfall last week will not serve to help anyone and will only cost the charity money to have to dispose of these old mattresses. Manager Barney Munger, who is retiring this month, said he used to take this activity personally, but now has learned to deal with it, but hopes people will share the message that this is not acceptable.

When Forks Outfitters assistant grocery man-ager Mike Palmer recently got a phone call on his day off, he assumed he probably was being called in to work. Luckily, he answered it.

It was store director Dave Gedlund calling to tell him he had just won $1,000. Outfitters, like many larger stores, has mystery shoppers, that grade the store on appearance and performance in all department.

When departments get 100 percent, money is added to a fund and employee names are put into a drawing and this time Palmer was the lucky win-ner. Palmer was pretty excited and said the extra money would really help with Christmas shopping this year. Photo Christi Baron ONE MORE VETERAN

stop and arrest every person who is out late at night walking in your neighborhood. This is a free country. We have to have what is called “probable cause” to do so.

Maybe they shouldn’t be there, and COULD be up to no good, but we can’t “lock them up” just for walking by your house or business. Calling 9-1-1 and reporting them walk-

Please join us for a unique opportunity to share an inter-active conversational evening that includes a viewing of Northwoods Photographic Project (photos from the 1980s) by John Tylczak with a special kick-off slide show and narrative of historical log-ging photos by Jack Zaccardo. Concluding the evening are closing remarks on Sustain-able Rural Ecosystems by ONRC Director Dr. Bernard Bormann.

Some of you may have had a chance in the past to view Zaccardo’s historical slides coupled with his interesting narrative of the times. Tylc-zak’s photographic images

from the 1980s feature log-ging on the West End during a time of great change and tran-sition in the logging profes-sion. Come, enjoy the pictures and slide show, and share a tale or two. The new ONRC director, Dr. Bernard Bormann, looks forward to meeting more members of the community. In order to make time to view the photographic project, listen to the historical presentation and share your reflections, the doors will open at 5:30 p.m. The evening’s presentation will begin at 6 p.m.

Tylczak’s photos will remain on display at ONRC through the new year.

The “Evening Talk” series at ONRC is supported by the Rosmond Forestry Education

Fund, an endowment that hon-ors the contributions of Fred Rosmond and his family to for-estry, education and the Forks community. Refreshments will be served and a potluck of your favorite dessert is encouraged. For more information, contact Frank Hanson at 360-374-4556 or [email protected].

Editors note:I had asked John Tylczak a

few questions, most appeared in last week’s paper with his answers. Here is one more.

FF: Why are you coming back with these photos now?

Tylczak: It has been 25 years since I last saw most of these people. They were, without exception, wonderfully gra-cious to me and this show is an opportunity to extend my

the business owners/home owners installed cameras on their properties. There is noth-ing better for the police than to have a video of the crime being committed!

The church community in Forks is wonderful. The pas-tors, deacons and priest are working very hard to help all of us. Their compassion for everyone, no matter their faith or lack of, helps all of us. They are organized and willing to help too! Don’t be afraid to ask one of them to talk to your family. Drug addiction can

be stopped by caring, loving, understanding communities. Forks is just that!

We are very willing to discuss these things anytime a neighborhood wants us to come over. There is no minimum number of people required. Just put on some coffee and we will be there to try to help. Forks is a great place and is full of great people. Let’s work together to solve some of our “hidden” problems instead of attacking those who try to help.

Dental Fact

Life with healthy teeth Flossing Once

Daily Important:

Visit your dentist regularly and eat nutritious foods to be Mouth Healthy

for Life.

Many dentists believe that � ossing is the single most important weapon against plaque. Daily � ossing when included in your brushing routine helps to prevent cavities, periodontal

disease, and other dental problems that may develop. It also increases blood circulation in your gums while removing plaque and debris that stick to your teeth.

RANDOM ACTS OF KINDNESS

When I lived in Yakima, I came out of the grocery store and there was a single red rose under my windshield wiper with a note and a piece of candy tied to the stem that read: “This is a random act of kindness, hope it brightened your day.” It sure did brighten my day.

Deborah Justice Cutrell

In 2008, a co-worker of my

By Hailey Larkin

Many people do good in the world, but don’t always get the credit they deserve. One of those many people is a woman. Her name is Mary Ann Halverson and she is my grandma. She does everything that she can to help people, one good thing out of the many things that she does is take care of me. She is my support system in life.

She always wants the best for me and puts me before anything else that’s going on in her chaotic schedule. She is one of the many things in the world that is right. I’m not over exaggerating when I say that my grandma does ev-erything.

She is like a super granny. She does all the house work, all the barn work and most of the gar-dening work. She cooks, cleans and runs me around everywhere I want to go or need to go. She is the one that makes sure I brush my teeth every morning and night, makes sure I do my homework after school and stays

on top of my life. I don’t know what I would do

without her. My grandma is the one who organizes my life. Not to mention my grandpa’s life too! She makes sure he doesn’t come in with grease on his face, washes his clothes, makes his dinner and cleans his office when it gets too bad.

That’s one thing that my grand-pa has on me; grandma will clean his room, but not mine. She says I need to have some responsibility around the house. She acts like my mom. She pretty much is my other mother. My grandma is in many ways my mom.

Normal kids live with there moms or dads. I live with my grandma and my grandpa. I treat them as if they were my parents.

They buy me clothes like a mom and dad should do and treat me like their own kid.

Sometimes that’s not always a good thing though. Like when I get grounded. I hate being grounded, but when I think back, my grandma always has a good reason to do so. I might hate that

A THANK YOU TO PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES

Sarah Decker gets paid to be a teacher, but she goes above and beyond. This past month we had all of the seventh-graders in the Timber Museum. To make the experience more rewarding, Sarah developed a Timber Mu-seum Scavenger Hunt where the students chose to be a Lumber Jack, Trapper, Native Girl or Pioneer Woman and then look at the items in the museum to see how they would relate to their character. I saw her many times engage a student with questions to make it thought provoking. It was a delight to have the students

here! Well done, Sarah!Linda Offutt

Joe Offutt may be my husband and best friend, but he works hard and I appreciate what he does ev-ery day for us. He did not take on the Timber Museum — I did. As a “voluntold” he works alongside of me in keeping the museum exhibits new and exciting and the building well maintained. AND, this year for the first time in a while, the museum will be open every day throughout the winter — thanks in part to his skills in getting people to volunteer. We will only close for Thanksgiving Day and Dec. 20-Jan. 3. I could not do without his tireless ideas and support. Linda Offutt

little part about my grandma, but she makes up for it by being there for me when I need someone to talk to.

I tell my grandma everything. I can’t keep anything from her.

Mostly because she gives me good advice. My grandma is my support system. She inspires me to do better in life and not to settle with being good, but to make things my best. She is the one that is rounding me to become a better person and is rearing me to a successful career I’m glad that I have her as my grandma.

A lot of people do brilliant things in the world, but aren’t given nearly as much credit as they deserve. My grandma is one of those people. She is on top of everything. In some sense she is my mom and my big support system.

I am lucky to have her in my life.

Sometimes I don’t always tell her that she is the one thing in my life that I appreciate.

She is truly one of the millions of things that are right in the world.

Mary Ann Halverson, 73, died Wednesday, Sept. 9, 2015.

By Christi Baron

This is a tale about wine and cheese, not consuming them but being them. With the 21st annual Forks Chamber of Commerce Wine & Cheese event happening this weekend it is an appropriate time to remember this painful experi-ence.

It was 1996 and Pat Soder-lind and I were attending the weekly chamber meeting. It was announced that two individuals were needed to wear costumes to promote a chamber fund raiser called Wine & Cheese.

The costumes had been cre-ated the year before and or-ganizers of the event thought it would be good advertising to have a bottle of wine and a wedge of cheese stand at the stoplight for the next two afternoons and wave at the traffic.

I whispered to Soderlind “Let’s do it” she said, “no” I said, “Come on, it will be fun,” she said, “OK.” We volunteered and were told the

Being Cheese …costumes would be delivered to us later that afternoon.

A few hours later the wine costume arrived at our office. “Where’s the cheese” I asked. We were told we would have to go to the chamber office to get it.

The wine bottle costume was too long for me, Soder-lind was taller, so it was decided she would be wine and I would be cheese.

When we arrived at the chamber office we were di-rected upstairs for the cheese. Again I asked “where’s the cheese.” Directed to the cor-ner of the room I saw a yel-low end table with a lamp and magazines on it. It was the cheese, made of plywood and 2x4’s, it was wedge shaped and had head and arm holes.

The next day the time ar-rived for us to portray wine and cheese. Wine slipped her cloth costume on with ease. It took two people to put the cheese on me. It was heavy but it was only for a couple hours, I could do it.

We made our way to the

stoplight and waved at the traffic for a while and then decided to take our show on the road. We went down the east side of Forks Avenue first, no problems.

Then “someone” had the bright idea that we go in to Pay & Save Foods.

They sold wine and cheese, we were wine and cheese, wine made it through the au-tomatic door first and then it was my turn. The back of my

wedge became, well, wedged in the door, I was stuck. Wine was oblivious, she was frol-icking about the store.

Finally someone came to my rescue and pushed the back of my wedge and I was finally in the store. Wine had made the rounds and was ready to go.

I carefully rotated my wedge and left out the regular door. By now pain was shoot-ing through my shoulders from the 2x4’s that were

imbedding themselves into my flesh.

We decided to head back to our office on Spartan Avenue. This entire time the front of my wedge had blocked where my feet were going and finally by the Raindrop Café (now Golden Gate) I tripped.

As I fell forward, my wedge pointing precariously toward the pavement, I caught my balance just before I became cream cheese. The next day I attempted to reprise my cheese role but discovered that my black and blue shoul-ders could not take the pain so Soderlind became cheese and I was a short bottle of wine.

The wine and cheese cos-tumes are long gone but the chamber wine and cheese event is going strong. In addi-tion to a silent auction featur-ing tons of fabulous donated items, the chamber will pres-ent its volunteer, person and business of the year awards. This year’s event will take place from 7-10 p.m. Satur-day, Nov. 14, at the RAC, 35 N. Forks Ave. Admission is $20, funds raised go to sup-port chamber programs and visitor center.

Our debt to the heroic men and valiant women in the service of our country can never be repaid. � ey have earned our undying gratitude. America will never forget their sacri� ces. Because of these sacri� ces, the dawn of justice and freedom throughout the

world slowly casts its gleam across the horizon.

Our forefathers came to our rugged shores in search of religious tolerance, political freedom and economic opportunity. For those fundamen-

tal rights, they risked their lives. We well know today that such rights can be preserved only by constant vigilance, the eternal price of liberty!

~ Harry S. Truman

Forks had a tremendous day of football, Saturday, Nov. 7, as all three West End Youth League teams had successful games.

C Squad had only one loss during the season which also was to Chimacum, the team they met in the final.

B Squad had an undefeated season as well as the A Squad. The teams are full of great athletes who really played hard.

The sixth-graders played their last Little League game and are heading to junior high next year. This group has been and remained undefeated league champs every year, now adding another impres-sive championship trophy for the fifth year in a row. The players have been amazing athletes and teammates and more great players are coming

WEYL A and B Squad champs, C Squad

takes second placeup to keep the streak going.

All three teams have put so much time and energy into becoming successful and deserve credit for doing so. They all started the season in the 90-degree heat and ended on a very cold, wet and muddy field.

Not to be forgotten are the cheerleaders, always on the sideline, with their support along with the cheer-parents.

A huge thank you goes to all the coaches. Many of them get up before daylight, go to work all day and then watch the sun go down on the football field, volunteering their time to coach; many are involved year after year.

Their effort shows greatly in the success of the youth league football program. Even though it is “Little League” it is a hard and competitive

season. Many of the children and the coaches don’t always receive the positive support they have earned. Thanks to all involved for this successful season.

A Squad beat Neah Bay 18-6 in the championship game last weekend.

B Squad won 41-0 in the final game against PA White.

C Squad lost in the final game 34-7 against Chimacum. Submitted photos
