Homelessness still a problem on South Whidbey, experts say

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

On a crisp November morning, residents of South Whidbey are stepping out of bed, wolfing down their breakfast and heading to the office or classroom for another day of work; but for some, the day may begin a little differently due to another night spent without permanent housing. The

majority of these individu-als are adults, but several others are children and teens.

National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, an annual event designed to bring issues such as poverty and home-lessness to the forefront of national discussion, is Nov.

By JUSTIN BURNETTSouth Whidbey Record

A pole building, two vehicles and an accounting business were destroyed in an evening fire at the home of longtime South Whidbey residents Steve and Linda Owensby on Monday.

The blaze at their property on Forest Knoll, off Crawford Road, caused an estimated $100,000 in damages, including the razing of a restored 1950 Chevy.

“It’s sickening,” said Steve Owensby, shaking his head as

he watched a small army of firefighters blast the building with water and tear apart walls in an effort to extinguish the fire.

No one was seriously injured in the incident, though Ownensby did suffer minor burns to his hands and lost a bit of hair in an early attempt to arrest the flames himself before emergency responders arrived.

Transit board eyes interim chief with bumpy careerBy JESSIE STENSLAND

South Whidbey Record

Mired in controversy, Island Transit officials are looking at a new interim director with a controversial history all his own.

Board members unanimously voted Friday night to authorize the chairman to enter into contract negotiations with Kenneth J. Graska, former assistant general manager of MV Transportation.

Graska was executive director of

Community Transit in Snohomish County in 1993 when it was investigated by the FBI over a bribery and kickback scandal. He resigned after receiving “blistering criticism” in a management audit that described his “‘often auto-cratic and intimidating’ treatment of employees, resulting in ‘very thin’ sup-port for him at all levels of the organiza-tion,” according to a 1993 story in the Everett Herald.

The Everett Herald did a series of investigative pieces on Community

Transit and Graska at the time.In one story, Graska admitted that

he was told about possible kickbacks in his maintenance department, but did nothing. Another story states that fed-eral investigators subpoenaed Graska’s “personal business records, including credit card slips and company cellular telephone bills.”

KudosLangley honors public works employee for year of service

Joe Wiezerbowski made quite an impres-sion in his first year working for Langley Public Works.

He was honored by the Langley City Council and Mayor Fred McCarthy with a pin for his first year working for the city. In that short time, he made a serious impres-sion on the city’s lead-ers. He repaired and replaced several steps that connect Boy and Dog Park to Seawall Park, and corralled the lavender plants around the city.

“We hope you get a five, and a 10, and a 15, and a 20-year pin,” McCarthy said.

Joe Wiezerbowski talks at a City Council meeting.

50 years ago todayThe following are segments of stories taken from the front page of the Whidbey

Island Record 50 years ago, Thursday, Nov. 19, 1964.

Final tally has Christoe as winner by 70 votes “Nearly 85 percent of Island County’s registered voters went to the polls in

the general election, according to County Auditor J W. Libbey, who said this was a record number as was also the number of voters — 7,074 including absentees.

“When the official canvass was completed Monday morning, Dick King, Democrat, stood ahead of Jack Metcalf, Republican incumbent state represen-tative, by a total of 234 votes in South Snohomish and Island and Ellsworth E. Christoe, Democrat, led C. F. (Andy) Andrews, Republican incumbent commis-sioner, by 70 votes.”

Gambling policy remains unchanged say officials“Island County Prosecutor Richard Pitt and Island County Sheriff Arnold

Freund said this week that they plan no change in policy toward gambling, regardless of the outcome of Initiative 34 in the recent election.

“The prosecutor said that his position is that he will prosecute anyone the sheriff or other law enforcement officers might arrest on gambling charges, but that he does not contemplate initiating any action.

“’I don’t think it is my job to investigate crime or make arrests,’ he said. “Sheriff Arnold Freund also said he does not plan to initiate any new action

in the county but indicated he isn’t too happy about the situation. “’I am placed in the position of a hypocrite,’ he said. ‘Under 1909 law, pinball

machines, bingo, raffles and card games are illegal in the state. However, we have allowed them in this county for many years and we will probably continue to allow them. At the same time, we will not relax our vigilance on other types of law-breaking in this county.’ ”

Local board seeks state support for school ferry rate“South Whidbey school board members heard reports, decided to sell about

50 used desks, decided to make some changes in counseling service and voted to place a proposal before the State School Directors’ Association when they met Monday night at the school.

“Three persons reported on various meetings they had attended. Jack Floyd reported on a science conference he attended in Portland Oct. 23 and 24; Fred LaFreniere told some of the things he learned at a math conference in Oregon Oct. 16 and 17 and Superintendent Bill Davis reported happenings at the Yakima Superintendents meeting. …The board, which with school officials has for some time sought free ferry fares for school children on field trips, decided to lay the proposal before the State School Directors’ Association and seek its support.”

lier this year about the agen-cy’s dire financial situation.

“Even in the short time your representative has been on the board, Island Transit is not in good shape financially,” Dudley said.

Island Transit altered ser-vices, cut routes and laid off 24 employees to help reduce expenses and cover its bills.

A report from the Washington State Auditor’s Office concluded that one of the causes of the financial woes was poor monitoring of finances by the board. Dudley cited the audit as he addressed Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy and the Langley City Council dur-ing the public comment sec-tion of the council meeting. Dudley also raised the issue of Island Transit not discuss-ing other means of revenue, such as advertising on buses or collecting fares from the historically fare-free com-mute.

“There’s no vision. There’s no mission. There’s no business plan,” Dudley said.

At no point was he inter-rupted or argued with as he spoke for almost five min-utes. Sundberg never broke his gaze from Dudley and had no tells as to his displea-sure or discomfort at having a fellow Island Transit board member criticize him.

Councilwoman Rene Neff defended Sundberg’s posi-tion on the transit board, say-ing she understood the dif-ficulty of serving on a board that meets once a month and is saddled with great responsibility. Neff ques-tioned the efficacy of the board’s makeup, saying that perhaps a subcommittee of financial experts would be a better way of monitoring the budget moving forward.

“We should look at a whole different system,” she said.

Sundberg countered sev-eral of Dudley’s claims about the mismanagement and financial outlook of Island

Transit near the end of the council’s more than two-hour meeting. During the council reports, Sundberg said the transit board has a financial plan in place that shows recovery of revenues and reserves.

“We do have a six-year funding plan,” Sundberg said. “We adopted that a couple of months ago.”

Refuting Dudley’s claim that Island Transit’s outlook is bleak, Sundberg pointed out that they already have about $700,000 in opera-tions funds, cash-in-hand, and expect to have another $500,000 in reserves by the end of the year.

“The hope is if we can obtain additional grant funding, we can restore some suspended routes,” Sundberg said.

At the same meeting, the Langley City Council approved Mayor Fred McCarthy as Sundberg’s alternate in the event he could not attend a transit meeting.

was not indicted.Graska could not be reached for comment.Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley, a member

and critic of the transit board, was out of town and didn’t attend the meeting; Councilman Joel Servatius sat in his place.

Dudley said Tuesday he hadn’t received any information about who the board chose; he said getting information from the board is an ongoing problem for him.

Dudley said he is disappointed in the choice of a candidate, but he said the only solution is for the other board members to resign.

“They could have chosen Mother Teresa,” he said, “and the community would question the selection because of their history.”

Trouble for the transit board erupted this past summer after the severity of financial problems came to light, necessitating layoffs of 24 employees and the elimination or altera-tion of five routes.

Then-director Martha Rose resigned in September. She received a severance payout of more than $100,000, including unused vaca-tion and sick leave; Washington state auditors found that she may have taken vacation with-out deducting in from her vacation balance.

As a result of the audit, Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks asked the Washington State Patrol to investigate the agency; the investigation is ongoing.

A transit employee, speaking on condition of anonymity, said IT staff members are “aghast” after learning about Graska’s background.

Coupeville Councilman Bob Clay, chairman of the board and current interim IT director, said there’s no reason for people to be wor-ried. He said the board members were aware of Graska’s history and that Graska didn’t try to hide it.

“I think we felt that the situation was explained to us and we felt comfortable with it,” he said.

Clay said seven people applied for the job and three were interviewed during an exten-sive process over more than six hours Friday. He explained that key members of the staff had one-on-one meetings with the three can-didates and even went through an exercise in which each candidate held a staff meeting.

Other staff members and the public got a chance to meet the candidates and give their input to board members before they entered into a closed session to discuss the candidates’

qualifications.Problems at Community Transit happened

20 years ago, said Clay, and the Community Transit board at the time expressed confi-dence in Graska.

News stories show Community Transit’s board approved Gaska’s severance package of about $38,000 in additional salary, continued medical insurance and car allowance for the next six months, in addition to financial assis-tance in his job search.

The Community Transit board, howev-er, had authorized an audit of the agency’s management by Moss Adams Consulting in response to the federal grand-jury inves-tigation of kickbacks and bribes involving bus-transmission repairs, the Everett Herald reported.

The audit found that Graska’s management style “paralyzes people into inaction for fear of making mistakes,” according to the Everett Herald.

The Community Transit maintenance direc-tor resigned after admitting to accepting gifts from the owner of a transmission shop. The shop owner was convicted on 15 counts of mail fraud for over-billing, the Everett Herald reported.

The Seattle Times reported that he accept-ed a transit job in Vermont.

A biography provided by Island Transit describes Graska is “an accomplished transit executive who has been in the industry for over 35 years,” with expertise in policy devel-opment, capital development programs, para-transit services, and creating and managing annual operating budgets.

Graska, who lives in Valencia, Calif., was assistant general manager with MV Transportation, assisting in the development and management of the Microsoft employee commuter bus and transportation services.

Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson said Monday that she’s excited to move forward with an interim director.

Each of the candidates had strengths in dif-ferent areas, she said.

“I think it’s important in each step on the way forward that we build trust in this vital agency again,” she said. “And I believe we are doing that.”

The board may consider approving a con-tract with Graska during a meeting this Friday, Clay said.

First sculpture offer made

Langley’s first public art sculpture installment was a short one.

Frank Rose, chair-man of the city’s Arts Commission, told the Langley City Council on Monday that a towering piece by Sue Taves named “Waves” installed in the plaza on Second Street has an offer to buy. The piece’s selling price is $6,900, of which the city will get $1,380 as a com-mission.

It’s the first successful sale as part of the city’s recently formed Arts Commission’s selected artworks. Taves’ piece and a sculpture by Lloyd Whannell of Clinton were installed Oct. 31. Langley city leaders decided to get in the art gallery industry, something they

argued was already tak-ing place, formally with the creation of the Arts Commission, which will advise the council how to spend 1 percent of all future capital project funding toward public art.

Funding for the sculp-tures, which were on dis-play for a stipend of $600 to each artist for a year, came from the Second Street redesign project

budget which was fin-ished in June.

Rose recommended the city approve the sale rather than purchase the sculpture, and replace it with another Taves piece.

The Langley Arts Commission is working on its bylaws, policies and procedures, as well as identifying other sites for sculptures. Rose said they are considering add-ing two more pedestal mounts for sculptures in the Second Street plaza, though the work is “expensive.”

Artists sought for door decoration

Langley’s annual Deck the Doors begins with the adornment of storefronts by artists, which are being sought by the Langley Main Street Association.

Entries must be ready for judging Nov. 26. Three prizes of $1,000 are up for the best doors,

as voted on by a panel picked by the Main Street Association. Winners will be announced Dec. 20 at Boy and Dog Park.

Last year, decorations were added to more than 50 shops in Langley’s downtown area in an effort to spruce up the shopping center around the holidays.

Merchants can pick their own door decora-tor or do it on their own, or can be paired up with someone through the Main Street Association.

Any interested shop owners, artists or decora-tors can email mainstreet @whidbey.com for details.

Cross-country trek talk set Saturday

A young man’s journey from Seattle to New York — by foot — with his college friend will be pre-sented Saturday at Trinity Lutheran Church.

Hear from South Whidbey High School alumnus Cameron Coupe and his fellow Washington

State University student Zan Roman about their coast-to-coast trek across the northern states.

The two young men, not even old enough to buy a beer, set out to walk across America for the journey more than the destination. As they were preparing, they decided to do it as a fundraiser for Seattle Children’s Hospital.

The presentation, “A Walk Across America,” will begin at 6 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22 at the Trinity Lutheran Church commu-nity building on Woodard Avenue and Highway 525.

Marathon needs volunteers

The organizers for the Whidbey Island Marathon are seeking volunteers on Whidbey Island to help organize, garner commu-nity support, coordinate logistics, plan entertain-ment and lend a hand to ensure the success of the April 19, 2015 event.

Race director Melissa Riker sent out a press release recently asking for “walkers, runners, medical personnel, community leaders, anyone wanting to make a difference” to step up to the plate.

Riker is running the marathon, which is owned by Oak Harbor, for Oak Harbor Elks Lodge.

The first volunteer com-mittee meeting will be held at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 19 at the Elks Lodge located at 155 N.E. Ernst St. The meeting will begin the planning process for the Whidbey Island Marathon event.

The Whidbey Island Marathon is a community event that starts with a free Expo on April 18, 2015, at the Best Western in Oak Harbor. Race day starts early on Sunday, April 19, with the full mar-athon starting line just across the Deception Pass State Bridge at Pass Lake.

The half marathon, 10K, 5K, and the 1K kids dash will start and end at Windjammer Park. There will be a festival at the fin-ish line for the community to attend and cheer on those who are finishing this beautiful and chal-lenging course.

Those who would like to join the Whidbey Island Marathon Event as a volunteer can contact Melissa Riker at 360-929-2489 or [email protected] or the Elks Lodge at 360-675-7111.

Sue Taves presents her sculpture “Waves.”

The story of Langley’s early days is now a bit more visible thanks to the recent installation of informative plaques on historic downtown build-ings.

Last month, Langley Main Street Association hung the first six of at least 20 stainless steel plaques on select struc-tures along Anthes Avenue, First and Second streets. Each has an image and a short description of the build-ing’s past.

“Every older building tells us something about the previous history of the town,” said Bob Waterman, a Main Street board member and his-torian. “They help define the character of the com-munity, and provide a visual record of how the town has changed over time.”

One of the Main Street Association’s roles is to increase community awareness and apprecia-tion of Langley’s history. The organization hopes that the plaques will help share and preserve the town’s early history.

Waterman has been gathering information and photos of early Langley for years. Along with Frances Wood, Waterman wrote the book on the early his-tory of the city, “Images of America, Langley.” He also presented a series of lectures on the town’s early years and the his-tory of the marina during last year’s Centennial Celebration, and serves on the South Whidbey Historical Society board.

According to Waterman, older build-ings serve as containers for the stories of the people who built and occupied them over the decades.

“When an older build-ing is lost, we lose a bit of our history and it becomes easier to forget those who came before,” he said.

The first six plaques were installed at: The Whale Center on Second and Anthes, which was built in 1952 by Lloyd Carter as a Union Gas Station; Music for the Eyes, locat-ed on First Street and built in 1905 by Roderick McLeod for his family (it was transformed into a grocery store in 1941 and went through several changes over the years); The Moonraker building, which was the town’s first post office and built in 1915 by Frank E. Furman,

Langley’s first mayor; the original Star Store, built by Joseph Primavera and opened in 1922 (it was named for a brand of shoes); the building that houses The Langley Café;

Brackenwood Gallery; Chocolate Flower Farm; and the Langley Public Library.

Some building owners paid the cost or part of the cost of the plaques while the rest was paid for by Main Street Association.

“We are very grateful to the building owners who granted permis-sion for a plaque to be placed on their build-ing and helped in their design,” Waterman said. “Hopefully additional property owners will

become involved in the future.”

Five more plaques are in production to be placed by early 2015 and several more are planned. For more information contact langleymain [email protected].

ResponseNew road story should have mentioned churchEditor,

I find it very puzzling that your article on Crawford Road fails to men-tion that there is a church, Unity of Whidbey, also on the street. The entrance is the first driveway on the right as you start up Crawford Road from the highway.

I am not a member of that congrega-tion, but I do attend events there, and I would not go if part of South Crawford was closed and forced long or danger-ous detours. Others wouldn’t either and groups who use that facility for meetings would find somewhere else.

Our South Island community has far fewer places to hold meetings and other events than it once did and the loss of access would affect a lot of us, not to mention the financial disaster for the church.

JANIE PULSIFERFreeland

Need helpThe HUB helps South End kids, but needs helpEditor,

I am a new resident of Whidbey Island, having moved here from Rhode Island. When I visited the island last winter, I signed on to volunteer at The HUB in Langley. I was immediately impressed with the organization, the program and the wonderful people involved.

I have been an educator for over 40 years and know the value of after-school programs that occupy time for today’s young people. Research tells us that the time from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. is when young people who have no or little supervision can and do make some bad choices.

Every day after school, anywhere from 15 to 35 or more middle and high school students go to The HUB in a space donated by the Methodist Church on Anthes Avenue for a meal, a place to hang out with friends, do homework,

and be in a comfortable, safe atmo-sphere. Volunteers cook the meals and two paid staff members are present every day. Its very active board of directors is committed and work tirelessly to keep The HUB running well and open for hopefully a long time to come.

The HUB is a non-profit organiza-tion and gets no money except for donations and fundraisers planned by the board, of which I am a new member. It is in need of more dona-tions and volunteer help at the fun-draisers and in their planning, in addition to even more community support. How wonderful it would be if a working partnership could be established with the South Whidbey School District to get more students involved.

Please consider visiting the web-site, donating to a very important cause, and/or offering your time to help out. It really does take a village to raise children.

Help South Whidbey to end homelessness

Editorial

Homelessness — on Whidbey Island it seems like a foreign condition, something that happens far away in busier or lesser places — not wholesome communities home to iconic state parks and charming waterfront towns.

Yet, it’s real. Last year hundreds of people on the South End alone were sleeping on friends’ couches, in cars and even in camps in the woods. It’s estimated that 80 of them were children. Kids.

Homelessness isn’t just an urban reality, it exists right here, right now and many of us don’t even know it. Fortunately, some do and on National Hunger & Homelessness Awareness Week, these selfless crusaders deserve both thanks and, perhaps more importantly, support.

While several organizations have worked to address the issue, such as Langley-based Helping Hand of South Whidbey, the South Whidbey Homeless Coalition formed this past year with the singular purpose of ending homelessness on the island. To that end, members are trying to establish a permanent shelter on the South End.

Had it existed in 2013, the facility would have helped house an estimated 300 people in the community who lacked permanent housing. To put that into perspective, that’s almost three times the amount of the 115 seniors enrolled at South Whidbey High School in October.

On a national level, over 610,000 people are homeless on any given night, according to the National Alliance to End Homelessness. Of those, nearly 390,000 are individuals and about 222,000 account for people in family groups.

According to the alliance, families usually become homeless as a result of an unforeseen financial crisis, from medical emergen-cies to a death in the family. Most get back on their feet quickly, without help, but some struggle on.

The image that may come to many people’s minds when think-ing of the homeless is men with unkept beards who push carts and speak to themselves, but they are actually a minority. Usually categorized as “chronically homeless” — defined as those who have been on the street more than one year, have experienced at least four episodes of homelessness in the last three years and have a disability — they are among the most vulnerable but only make up 18 percent of all homeless people.

Furthermore, just 9 percent of the homeless are veterans, according to the Alliance.

The point is, discard common stereotypes. They don’t always fit the bill, especially on South Whidbey. There’s a good chance those struggling with homelessness are people we know, people we count as friends or are former neighbors. We bump into them at the grocery stores, their kids go to school with our kids.

The effort to end homelessness here at home is ours, all of ours, not just those leading the fight. The Coalition is working to establish a permanent shelter and it should be realized.

The Coalition meets at 2:30 p.m. the first Monday of each month at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland, and hosts dinners each month from 3-6 p.m. on the third Wednesday, also at Trinity.

GO SHOPPING!Ever notice how you feel good

browsing through a full-service department store? Mannequins are impeccably dressed with the layered look. Belt buckles are polished brass and pants are a perfect, tailored fi t. Colors are coordinated, and everyone in the “group” has a smile as they sit motionless in a casual setting. The price is usually full retail.

Selling a home parallels that department store situation. You can take the discount store approach, offering your home “as-is” at below market prices, or you can merchandise it properly and attract a full retail purchaser.

Merchandising begins with a walk-through of your home to uncover needed repairs and other improvements. Your agent, playing the role of the interested buyer, makes a list of items in need of attention, then asks you to complete them before showing the home to prospects. Merchandising involves more than repairs, though. It sets the stage for buyers, making them feel at home. From fresh fl owers to the dining table set for a king’s banquet, every room in the house is “staged” for maximum buyer appeal.

Your agent will explain details such as proper lighting, furniture arrangement, and the absence of pets. Complete information about the home should be displayed, along with a property profi le buyers can take with them.

Why not merchandise your home when you sell? It can bring ready buyers, eager to pay for the image you create.

Sheriff’s Report

By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record

Winter sports numbers are similar to the past few seasons at South Whidbey High School, except for wrestling.

Out of about 475 students at South Whidbey High School this year, 14 percent will participate in boys and girls basketball, cheer-leading, and wrestling. That per-centage is similar to the past few years, but wrestling’s numbers are low at only 11 athletes.

The Falcons will have 31 athletes in boys basketball, 24 in girls basketball, and six in cheer. Wrestling, however, took a major hit and was down to just 11 students registered on the first day of winter sports season in Washington on Monday.

“It’s gonna impact everything,” said Falcon head wrestling coach Jim Thompson during practice Monday.

He noted that losing 10 seniors leaves a major vacuum for a program. Not a single freshman signed up for grappling, but Athletic Director Kelly Kirk said there were only three incoming wrestlers from the eighth-grade middle school team last year, which did not leave a lot of room for attrition or changes of heart.

“We haven’t had to promote it before in my experience,” said Kirk, who was previously the ath-letic director at the much larger Juanita High School in Federal Way. “Wrestling is obviously something we’ll have to work on.”

For the basketball teams, the participation number is effectively capped by the game itself. With only five players able to play at a time, carrying about 10 players per team is the standard. The boys team under first-year head coach Mike Washington Sr., the former Oak Harbor Wildcats

coach, will again have three squads: varsity, junior varsity and C-team.

Girls basketball under head coach Andy Davis and assistant Jeff Hanson, who moved over from the boys program, will run with a varsity and a junior varsity. With close to 30 girls signed up, there’s a possibility that the Falcons may have a C-team for the first time since Davis took over in 2010. Kirk said the thresh-old is 10 practices for 30 girls, at which point the school could hire a third coach. The real struggle, said Kirk, is finding games for a C-team.

Wrestling will need to sign up a

few more athletes to field a near-full team. In head coach Jim Thompson’s decade-plus of coaching the Falcons, he’s always struggled to fill the lower weights. But this year’s challenge to flesh out a full roster is unique.

“The problem is we don’t have a junior program to feed the middle school to feed the high school,” he said.

Most years, Falcon wrestling season ends with about a dozen athletes. Injuries, poor grades and changing interests all lower the team’s ranks over the course of the longest high school sports season that stretches from mid-November to mid-February.

A silver lining, if there can be one for the Falcons’ coach, is that with fewer wrestlers he and assistant Paul Newman will have more time to devote to each ath-lete. Instead of working on basics, Thompson said, they’ll be able to hone skills and develop them better.

Thompson returned after officially resigning in spring. After several years and an espe-cially heartbreaking season — Thompson criticized the officiat-ing in the elimination match for then-senior Andy Madsen at the state tournament — he was ready to leave. But a stroll through the halls of South Whidbey High

School and an encounter with Principal John Patton, who for-merly served as the athletic direc-tor, changed his mind.

“John Patton stopped me in the hall. He stopped, stared at me and said, ‘You will be the high school wrestling coach next season.’ My knees started shaking … I don’t want to play poker with that guy,” Thompson said.

As a means to help rebuild the wrestling program, starting with Langley Middle School, Thompson said he’d like to do wrestling days in the physical education classes or put on dem-onstrations with his team.

Wrestling numbers low, basketball teams steady

Ben Watanabe / The Record

Jim Thompson, South Whidbey High School’s head wrestling coach, speaks to the wrestlers about going for an academic championship. The team is smaller this year, much to Thompson’s dismay.

15 through 23. According to Marilynn Norby, South

Whidbey School District Homeless liaison and Gail LaVassar, Readiness to Learn Foundation executive director — both South Whidbey School District employees — there are approximately 80 district students this year who lack permanent hous-ing. Some are living with parents while others sleep in cars or tents or on the couches of friends.

Lori Cavender, executive director at Ryan’s House for Youth — a non-profit organization on South Whidbey which supports young people ages 13-17 who are without permanent housing — spoke with The Record from Kansas City, Miss., where she was attend-ing a conference of the National Association for the Education of Homeless Children and Youth.

According to Cavender, the percentage of homeless children per capita is about equal nationwide, both in rural and urban

areas. Homeless students during the 2013/2014

school year on South Whidbey numbered 86, a decline from approximately 109 in 2011, Cavender said. Ryan’s House has helped reduce the number by working to place some teens with host families. Many others, however, remain without perma-nent housing throughout the school year due to a lack of available hosts.

“There are no words to express how bad I feel when I am unable to provide a home for a student,” Cavender said.

Ryan’s House is planned to one day become a shelter for home-less children, the

vision of the orga-nization’s founders, but for now Cavender said the organization is focusing upon its host family program. Last year, she said, 14 teens were successfully placed with hosts.

Usually teens become homeless because they are either forced out of the house, sometimes due to a parent’s disapproval of a child’s lifestyle or orientation or decide to leave after recognizing the unhealthy nature of their environment. The majority, however, leave because of a parent’s men-

tal illness, neglect or abusive behaviors, Cavender said. A much smaller percentage become homeless due to other circum-stances such as a family’s relocation, gang relations, juvenile delinquency or struggles with addiction.

“The kids we work with want a better life for themselves and want to get themselves out of the bad situation their parents have

placed them in,” Cavender said. “They real-ize their home lives are not healthy and sometimes it is safer for them to be out in the woods or in their car than to be with their family.”

HOMELESSCONTINUED FROM A1

SEE HOMELESS, A10

“There are no words to express how bad I feel when I am unable to provide a home for a student.”

Lori Cavener, Ryan’s House executive director

United States Department of Health and Human Services, homeless youth are more susceptible to men-tal health problems than their housed counterparts and are also more likely to face barriers in obtaining treatment. Homeless youth often display symptoms of depression and post trau-matic stress and attention deficit disorder. The fed-eral Health and Resources Services Administration estimates that between 19 and 50 percent of homeless adolescents struggle with mental illness compared with 4 to 9 percent of the housed adolescent popula-tion.

In addition, said

Cavender, students who lack permanent housing are more likely to fall behind in school, especially if forced to relocate and transfer.

“ K i d s t h a t are in a h o m e -l e s s situation in any m a n n e r — couch sur f ing, in a car, in a tent, with or without a parent — all of these things are detrimental,” Cavender said.

Through the South Whidbey Family Resource Center, LaVassar, Norby and other staff members provide what LaVassar

refers to as “wraparound services” which include help or referrals to resourc-es for mental and physi-cal health, finances, shelter

and food for about 300 stu-dents total, including the 80 on South Whidbey who lack permanent housing.

“In a lot of ways, we are a primary resource,” said LaVassar, explaining that due to South Whidbey’s rural makeup, it can be

more challenging for fami-lies to access services such as shelters and health care which may be more readily available in urban areas.

The resource center partners with organiza-tions such as Good Cheer, Whidbey Island Nourishes and Ryan’s House for Youth and ensures that social services outreach per-sonnel from the

Department of Social and Health Services are available at the organi-zation weekly.

“If we see a pattern of unmet needs for families and kids, we try to find a way to fill the void,” LaVassar said.

Norby and LaVassar con-curred with Cavender that untreated mental health problems are often a factor in homeless students’ lives, both as it pertains to fam-ily members and the child. The South Whidbey School District provides counsel-ing and psychological ser-vices within its schools, but care for adult family mem-bers is often more difficult to obtain due to barriers such as finances or a lack of awareness.

“It creates a lot of insta-bility and trauma,” LaVassar said of the effects of a par-ent’s untreated mental health on a child. “Often the kids fend for them-selves in some ways and have to become the adult in the situation because the parents have mental health and cognition problems.”

Through one-on-one meetings and liaison ser-vices, LaVassar and Norby work to help parents to identify and resolve prob-lems in order to enhance students’ ability to succeed, regardless of initial barri-ers. The center also pro-vides an art program and safe after-school homework space for kids who need a safe place to go after school or whose family lives may lack stability.

“To see a kid who has struggled graduate or a kid in a homeless situation or really difficult family situ-ation join a sports team or another group of friends, that makes my heart soar,” said LaVassar.

“If we see a pattern of unmet needs for families and kids, we try to find a way to fill the void.”

Gail LaVassar, Readiness to Learn Foundation executive director

As it has for the past 10 years, The Giving Tree will go up at the Cash Store in Bayview next month to add a bit of holiday cheer on the South End and bring a little more good to char-ity groups.

The tree is decorated with handcrafted ornaments made by staff and volunteers of non-

profit organizations located on Whidbey Island. The public has the chance to buy these trinkets, and the proceeds benefit the various participating groups.

This year, participants include Enso House Hospice, FETCH!, Hearts and Hammers, Kids First—Island County, Readiness to Learn, Ryan’s House For

Youth, Whidbey Island Nourishes (or WIN), and more.

The Giving Tree is on display Dec. 4-31 at the Cash Store, located at 5603 Bayview Road.

A suggested minimum dona-tion is set by each organization and all proceeds from the pur-chase of ornaments go back to the organization. Information on

each charity is available to take away.

After choosing ornaments, vis-itors may take them to either of two Cash Store shops — Salon Bella or Bloom’s Taste for Wine — for purchase. Cost is from $5 to $25 per ornament, cash or check only.

The Giving Tree is sponsored

by Goosefoot, a non-profit organization that works to bring neighbors together to build a sense of place and community, to preserve rural traditions, to enhance local commerce and to help create a healthy, sustainable future for South Whidbey Island, according to a recent news release.

Glittering decorations, shimmering fabrics, sparkling lights—the Christmas holidays are synonymous with radiance. This radi-ance can also apply to your skin, your hair, your look and your smile! Begin your beauty treatments right away in order to shine at all the parties you’ve been invited to.

RADIANT COMPLEXIONTrue beauty starts with a radiant complexion. As well as your daily routine, try a microdermabrasion, which is a treatment that exfoliates the skin and stimulates collagen production, giv-

ing an incredible glow to your complexion. Apply a progressive self-tanning cream once or twice a week for a natural looking tan.

GLAMOROUS HAIRBe sure to spoil your hair as well. The key word: hydration. When next at the hairdresser’s, be sure to ask for a natural oil treatment, the ultimate for a glamor-ous mane of hair. Where hairstyles are concerned, the boyish look is back as well as the fishtail braid. Other-wise, lots of volume and ultra-smooth texture are musts.

THE LATEST IN MAKEUPFor holiday makeup, a shopping trip is on the order of the day so that you have all the articles necessary for creating the very latest in looks: coppery, smoky eyes; cashmere lips (colored lipstick with a softened effect); the nude look with tones on the cold side; golden eye liner; and accentuated eyebrows.

DAZZLING SMILELastly, think about a whitening treatment for your teeth in order to restore that dazzling smile.

Psst! Making your appointments well in advance is the

best way to ensure you’re the belle of the ball at all your Christmas parties!

Giving Tree makes first appearance at Bayview Cash Store

By KATE DANIEL South Whidbey Record

Christmastime is a season chock-full of traditions, nos-talgia and, for many families, a hearty helping of laughter.

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts is bringing a tradi-tional holiday production to the stage in a presentation of “A Christmas Story” opening Friday, Dec. 5.

All Ralph Parker wants for Christmas is a Red Ryder B.B. gun. But when he tells his teacher, parents and Santa of his wish, “You’ll shoot your eye out!” is the only response he receives.

The play is based upon author and radio raconteur Jean Shepherd’s book, “In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash,” a collection of semi-fictional anecdotes and memoirs of growing up in the 1940s midwest United States. The play, which was adapted for stage by Phillip Grecian, was later adapted for film and directed by Bob Clark; it became an instant holiday classic upon its release in 1983.

Deana Duncan, whose sons Nicholas and Zachary Schneider were cast as Randy and Flick in a WICA production of the play 10 years ago, will be directing.

The show, she said, has become a part of their family’s holiday tradition with plenty of memories — including the moment her son Nicholas, as Randy, “decided to go crazy” and spoon-throw oatmeal at his fellow cast members on stage. Nicholas and Zachary will be returning home to view the production with their mother.

Duncan noted that the story is a classic with an annual 24-hour Christmas Eve run on TV, commanding over 40 million viewers sim-ply because it “speaks to our American humor.”

“Jean Shepard wrote ‘My work says, if you think it’s bad now, you should have seen it then,’ ” said Duncan. “This is what ‘A Christmas Story’ is for most people, a reminder of humanity through comedy.”

Phil Jordan, who has a plentiful cache of Midwest holiday memories from his own childhood, will be play-ing the adult Ralph Parker, the narrator.

Before rehearsals began, Jordan presented Duncan

with a slideshow of his child-hood Christmas memories — his dad was an amateur photographer — which Duncan said informed a great deal of her directorial decisions for the show.

For example, Duncan said, all of Jordan’s family photos included images of kids sitting on the floor, which she incorporated. His mother also had a ribbon upon which she attached Christmas cards. Annie Deacon, lighting designer, said her mother did the same. This, too, was incorpo-rated into the show.

“The idea was to post all the Christmas cards that came from friends and rela-tives all over the country,” explained Jordan. “The cards were attached to the ribbon that went around a door frame. As Christmas drew closer, more and more cards would be hung there until the entire door frame was nothing but Christmas

cards.”Much like Ralph Parker,

Jordan said he appreciates the value of reminiscence. While his own family has experienced its fair share of somberness, viewing slides of his “long-ago family” evokes memories of the love and pleasant moments they shared.

“I have begun to under-stand that reminiscing is often set in motion by cur-rent feelings of sadness and loss,” Jordan wrote in an email to The Record. “The impulse to look back and re-experience the times we were happy is a soothing activity and I think that is why human beings do it — to remind themselves that all is not lost, that sadness is as fleeting as joy.”

Traditions like those of the Parker family in “A Christmas Story,” he said, become a sort of “semi-for-mal way … of reliving past joy and connecting it to our

present and our future.”For many families, Jordan

said, viewing specific holiday movies or plays can become a tradition of its own. Duncan concurred, saying that the biggest parts of the holidays are quite often the associated rituals.

“The story itself becomes another tradition with the annual viewing of the movie or through generational leaps of different community and family members re-cre-ating the play,” wrote Jordan. “I find all of that to be pretty cool.”

The cast of “A Christmas Story” includes Soren Bratrude, Tess Patty Caldwell, Kristin Carlson, Jim Castaneda, Hillel Coates, Joe Davies, Patricia Duff, Ada Rose Faith-Feyma, Waylan Parsell, Phoenix Lester, Meghan Parker, Rob Prosch, Jordan Schierbeek, Leo Smith and Bonnie Stinson. Valerie Johnson is the costume designer and

Bonnie Stinson designed the sets. Duncan is working on props with a volunteer, Bob Atkinson.

Duncan noted that the show is largely a collabora-tive effort between members of cast and crew. While Stinson presented the guid-ing vision, others have had their input as well. One the-matic image that will remain consistent throughout the show is that of a snowflake, which Duncan intends to portray through various mediums including lights and artistic flakes suspended from the ceiling. During the initial stages of preparation, Duncan said she reviewed still photographs from past productions of “A Christmas Story” in theaters nation-wide. In every shot, she said, she noticed snowflakes. Duncan’s vision, she said, is to “play around with the idea that we are in a snow globe.”

Deacon noted that her work as lighting designer

is decidedly behind-the-scenes more than most, but explained that proper light-ing informs the audience of the mood of the story, enhancing and complement-ing the work of other crew and cast members. In this production, she’ll be incor-porating the use of mirrors to create the subtle look of snowflakes on stage using lighting.

Duncan is also seeking donations of an additional 1,000 cut paper snow flakes, in hopes of dropping a total of 2,000 flakes into the the-ater during the show.

The production will include live audience par-ticipation and, before and after each show, the lobby will be filled with a “holiday extravaganza” complete with Ralphie’s Shooting Gallery, trivia, games and the Triple Dog Dare Hangman bar with libations for all ages.

“A Christmas Story” plays at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and at 2 p.m. Sundays from Friday, Dec. 5 through Saturday, Dec. 20.

Tickets cost $22 for adults, $18 for seniors and $15 for matinees, and are available for purchase through the box office in person or by phone, or online at wicaon line.com.

of a fire at the Owensbys’ property at about 5:30 p.m. Firefighters arrived to find smoke pouring from the building and flames visible around the eves of the struc-ture.

“The fire was just glow-ing from there,” said Mike Cotton, deputy chief of the fire district.

Cotton said it was later determined that burn and scorch patterns on the wall indicate the blaze likely began around a pickup truck. The building was a wood-framed structure with metal siding, containing two car bays, Linda Owensby’s accounting business and a small upstairs loft.

Records stored on the upper story were ignited and were difficult to extinguish — firefighters had to pull siding off the outside of the building to gain access to the area with a fire hose.

According to Owensby, the truck belongs to a friend and he’d been working on it about an hour before he first noticed flames. He’d performed some welding on the vehicle’s undercarriage, and continued working in the shop about 45 minutes. He said he didn’t see any flames or smell burning when he

left the building, but saw the glow from his kitchen win-dow a short time later.

“I looked out and saw light and thought, ‘What the hell,’ ” he said.

Running down to the build-ing, he grabbed a fire extin-guisher and tried to put out the flames, which he said were focused around the truck, but without success. He then called the fire dis-trict, and firefighters spent the next several hours put-ting out the fire.

Cotton said 25 firefight-ers were on the scene, using three engines, three water tenders and several com-mand vehicles.

The Owensbys said they have homeowner’s insur-ance, but the loss was still hard to bear. The damage to Linda Owensby’s accounting business — several comput-ers were destroyed — was catastrophic and losing the restored car was heart wrenching. It had an $8,000 paint job, push-button doors, the works, they said.

“It was so beautiful,” Linda Owensby said.

The couple were grateful, however, that the fire didn’t spread. Other buildings, an RV and another classic car were nearby and were undamaged.

“Thank God my Model A was up at the house,” Steve Owensby said.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de- livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
