The Coupeville Boost-er Club will once again be serving up piles of crab in support of middle and high school athletics.

The annual Crab Feed and Auction is 6 p.m. Friday, Nov. 14 at the Oak Harbor Elks Lodge.

Cost is $30 advance tick-ets or $40 at the door, if avail-able.

But don’t delay, tickets of-ten sell out, said booster club president Christy Kellison.

Tickets are available at Keystone Cafe and Cascade Insurance.

The evening will include a dinner of Dungeness crab

straight from the Puget Sound.

It’s super fresh; it’s cooked live on the spot, Kellison said.

There will also be beer and wine and other tasty items provided by booster club members.

Coupeville High School student athletes will act as servers for the evening.

Dale Sherman will serve as auctioneer for the evening while Willie Smith will serve as emcee.

“There’s quite a large vari-ety of items (up for auction),” Kellison said.

Items include weekend getaways, a week-long stay in Cabo San Lucas, gift certifi-

cates to local restaurants and smaller handmade items by local artists.

This is the booster club’s largest fundraiser for the year and Kellison said the club hopes to raise about $15,000.

Funds raised go to sup-port athletic programs at the schools in a variety of ways.

The club supports a Pay to Play program, which as-sists students in need with paying athletic fees.

It’s to ensure every stu-dent can play, Kellison said.

They also help with team uniforms, make improve-ments to athletic facilities and try to help each team where they can.

Bruce Stevens and Emily Norris opened Emily’s Sweets & Treats last week in the Mariti Chocolate Building. The bakery of-fers cupcakes, cookies, truffles, coffee and more.

By Megan HansenCo-Editor

A new business on Front Street is hoping to satisfy downtown’s sweet tooth.

Emily’s Sweets & Treats opened last week in the Ma-riti Chocolate Building and owners Emily Norris and Bruce Stevens already have regulars.

The recently married cou-ple offer a variety of sweets including cupcakes, cookies, cake balls, truffles, muffins and the occasional scone.

They also offer coffee and espresso made with Jenny-Bean coffee, a local Coupe-ville roaster.

Stevens said JennyBean has created an exclusive roast, which the shop will also soon carry for retail sale.

Being a barista is a new job for the couple, but they said their customers have been patient with them

“Venti? What’s that?” Ste-vens joked. “We have small, medium and large.”

They also plan to sell cold beverages to go with their tasty confections.

And soon, they said, they

hope to have the market on apple juice sales on Front Street.

They took over the build-ing in July and have steadily been working on getting per-mits and equipment all while planning a wedding.

“She focused on the wed-ding and I focused on the bakery,” Stevens said.

But it’s Norris’ enterprise at baking that opened the shop.

“I’ve been making cup-cakes for years,” she said.

Norris has done spe-cial cupcake events over the last several years with Front Street Grill and Vail Wine Shop.

The shop will carry stan-dard flavors such as choco-late with chocolate frosting, but Norris said she is open to ideas and does take specialty orders.

“My favorite is the choco-late, chocolate, but I made an apple spice (cupcake) and it might have changed my life,” she said.

As the business grows, so will the offerings.

Right now the coffee side of the business has a small se-

lection of flavoring offerings, all based on public inquiry.

And will grow with de-mand.

Cupcakes are pretty hefty, with a price tag of $2.50.

“I want it to be a good value,” Norris said.

As a sous chef at Christo-pher’s, Stevens has the culi-nary background and assists where he can.

Norris said Stevens is in charge of the cookies as well as removing items from the oven.

She’s on “strike” since burning her finger on a batch of peanut butter cookies.

Both Stevens and Nor-ris, who works as a server at Front Street Grill, plan on keeping their current jobs in addition to the shop.

Norris said she will also partner with another sweet purveyor on Front Street,

which happens to be run by her parents. Norris is the daughter of Joel and Lorene Norris, who own Kapaws Iskreme.

Together, the two busi-nesses plan to host ice cream and cupcake parties in the courtyard behind the build-ing.

And just a week into their sweet adventure, the couple said they’ve received a lot of support and an already grow-ing return customer base.

“It’s been great,” Nor-ris said. “A lot of business owners have come in a said they’re glad to have us.”

Emily’s Sweets & Treats is open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. seven days a week. For more infor-mation on specialty orders, go to www.emilysweetsandtreats.com

Thanks for supportingGifts from the HeartEditor,

It was a cold and stormy morning. It was raining sideways. The race course was muddy and slick. But none of that stopped nine fabu-lous teams from coming out to the seventh an-nual Harvest Fest Relay Races.

Thank you to the two food bank teams, the “Pumpkin Posse” and the “Friends of Dorothy,” the Town of Coupeville “Town Spirits,” the “Lady Lions,” the Rosehip Farm’s “Rose Hypnotists,” the Greenbank Farm’s “Flight Crew,” the LDS “The Beet Goes On,” the Christ the King’s “Poncho King’s,” and last but certainly not least this year, the CHS Drama Club/Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association’s (CHWA) “Those Drama Kids.”

The teams came out in costumes with en-ergy and enthusiasm that could not be damp-ened by the weather. It was a fun day, all for the benefit of our local food bank, Gifts from the Heart.

With the help of a couple of large matching donations, these nine teams raised $28,970.30 for the food bank.

The team that raised the most money was CHWA’s Those Drama Kids. The team with the fastest course time was the Poncho King’s, and the People’s Choice Award went to the Friends of Dorothy.

An additional prize was awarded to the Rose Hypnotists for coming in second place in the fundraising category.

I would like to thank all the teams, the food bank volunteers and friends of the food bank who manned the course and worked the registration tent and the few brave specta-tors who came out to cheer us on. I would like to thank Peg Tennant, the manager of the Coupeville Farmers Market, and all of the farmers and vendors who share their space with us.

I would like to thank the Whidbey Exam-iner, who gave the races great coverage this year, and the Coupeville Historic Waterfront Association, who helped raise the matching funds for the large donations.

Most of all, I would like to thank our com-munity members who never cease to amaze me with the depth of their commitment to the food bank. Because of your generosity, we are able to help hundreds of families by “respect-fully giving food to those in need” and assist school children with weekend food with our Meals 2 Kids program.

As we prepare for the upcoming holidays, the Gifts from the Heart volunteers want to assure you that we are truly thankful for your continued support and that we strive to be careful custodians of the funds you entrust us with.

Thank you.Molly Hughes, president

Gifts from the Heart

Need to clarify transit’s reasoning on payoutEditor,

Recent discussion of Island Transit financ-es confuses the State Audit Report with the separation agreement for the previous execu-tive director.

The official State Audit Report covers 2013 and part of 2014 and recommends more care-ful definition and tracking of paid leave (sick leave, vacation time and compensation time). It did not document any “theft” of sick leave, vacation time or compensation time; rather, it recommended better documentation of these categories for all salaried personnel, which has been instituted immediately. Unfortunately, the audit report did not mention that accrued vacation days for 2013 and 2014 for the former executive director can and do accurately ac-count for the longer dates out of the office in 2013 and 2014.

The separation agreement with the previ-ous executive director, Martha Rose, was drafted by legal counsel, in consultation with the Washington State Transit Insurance Pool (WSTIP) in October 2014. It included care-fully calculated benefit obligations set forth in Island Transit’s Personnel Policies, including payouts for unused sick leave and vacation subject to maximum caps on payouts as pro-vided in these policies.

Due to 25 years of employment with Island Transit, Martha Rose had accrued consider-

able sick leave and also vacation hours going well beyond the caps. The settlement did not reimburse these above-cap hours. Amounts paid out in the separation agreement were contractual obligations pursuant to Martha Rose’s employment agreement and person-nel policies that apply to all Island Transit employees.

Upon the recommendation of legal coun-sel, the separation agreement was accepted unanimously at the Oct. 17 meeting of the Is-land Transit Board.

Jim SundbergLangley City Council representative on

Island Transit Board

Bob Clay must gofrom transit boardEditor,

I am probably one of a few Island Transit users speaking up. As such, I stand with Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley in his efforts to at the least get Island Transit an advertising contract and get new Island Transit board members who will take their responsibilities seriously.

At the least, Bob Clay must go. Clay cer-tainly knew before the Oct. 24 State Auditor’s Office Exit Conference about the former ex-ecutive director’s inability to report leave cor-rectly yet agreed to pay over $80,000 to a for-mer executive director who, according to the

auditor’s office, shares the blame for many of Island Transit’s problems. A severance agree-ment was also arguably fiscally irresponsible.

Furthermore, Mr. Clay’s attempt to dis-credit the State Auditor’s Office Team Belling-ham at the Exit Conference is ignoble. At least the former Team Bellingham Director Sadie Armijo explained in her last audit of Island Transit there were no “red flags” because Is-land Transit had over $2 million in reserves in 2012 and was building a necessary but opulent new headquarters.

Therefore, Mayor Nancy Conard should please review Bob Clay’s performance on the Island Transit Board, instruct Clay to issue a public apology to Sadie Armijo and Andy As-bjornsen — the past and present Team Bell-ingham commanders I consider consummate professionals — and place on a Coupeville Town Council agenda a public confidence vote about Clay’s representation of Coupeville to the Island Transit Board.

The ultimate issue to this Island Transit rider is if the Island Transit Board can rebuild Island Transit.

I hold the view that it is impossible for most of Island Transit’s current board to continue due to multiple negative surprises destroying trust, the recent State Audit, prof-ligate spending policies and the Island Transit 2014-2019 Transit Development Plan being so deficient it is unclear to me when or if Satur-day service will restart.

Just because your hostas are starting to look about as attractive as cattle si-lage, don’t despair. Their roots will do just fine in our northern winters, and they’ll come back bigger and better than ever in the spring.

Not so begonias. These natives of tropical climates will not survive if left out-side in the winter. If you’re happy with treating your begonias as annuals and replacing them every year, then go ahead and compost them when you’re done with them.

If you can’t decide when the right time is to do that, then leave them alone and the first frost will make the decision for you by killing the stems and leaves. The first hard frost will put an end to the roots.

If the first frost hasn’t ar-rived yet, you have a chance to overwinter your wax begonias indoors as house plants. These are the bego-nias that have shiny, waxy-

looking leaves. They can be finicky due to the change in humidity, heat and light in-doors, so don’t be surprised if you experience some leaf drop.

Put them on a tray of pebbles to increase humid-ity, place them in bright filtered light and don’t let their feet sit in water. Sounds a lot like an African violet, doesn’t it?

Just make sure when you bring any plants inside you don’t bring little critters or diseases in with you. Don’t forget to do some detective work and look for slug and snail eggs that may have been left to overwinter in the soil. Believe me, you’ll be glad you did.

Tuberous begonias, on the other hand, enjoy dor-mancy during the winter months. They just can’t en-joy it outside in our winters, so they can come indoors too. But instead of treat-ing them like house plants, you’re going to store those tubers until spring gives the signal for new growth.

The first step is to stop watering them. When they’re dry you can bring them indoors and take them out of their pots. They can withstand a light frost, which will make your job easier by killing off their leaves and stems. Just don’t

wait until after the first heavy frost or it’s too late.

Clean off all the dirt and use a sharp knife to cut out any rotten spots you might find. Lay them out to dry in a warm and dry spot for several days. Once they’re completely dry, any remain-ing stems should be wizened enough to just come off Put them individually in something breathable, like a paper bag or newspaper, and store them in a cool, dark and dry place. If your garage gets cold enough to freeze in the winter, that wouldn’t be the place.

Some people like to sprinkle their tubers with a fungicide before storing them. That’s up to you. You might also want to label them with the color if you’ve got more than one kind and color schemes matter to you.

Check them from time to time during the winter and know you can still cut out any more rotten spots that crop up.

You’ll know when it’s time to replant them when they start to sprout.

As you stare out your window at rain and more rain, think how pretty those begonias will look on your front porch come summer. Keeping thinking it. Winter doesn’t mean your begonias are gone forever.

I just spent 17 days cross-ing something amazing off my bucket list. In Septem-ber, I cruised the Danube, Main and Rhine Rivers on a luxury boat with 160 other bedazzled tourists through six countries, past count-less castles, innumerable cathedrals and more cobble-stones than there are stars in heaven.

On our day excur-sions, we gawked our way through the narrow streets of more quaint towns than you can rattle a medieval saber at. Bratislava in Slo-vakia, Cesky Krumlov in the Czech Republic and Rothenburg in Germany, to name a few. Along the way, I shamelessly indulged in my sausage, pastry, beer and pork addictions.

I marveled at how these little towns had retained their charms while remak-ing themselves to face 21st century economic reali-ties. Each of them attracts more than a million visitors every year. Crowds of tour-ists wend their way behind tour guides waving flags and umbrellas to keep them to-gether, speaking in a dozen languages.

They stop for samples of gingerbread or pretzels. They shell out lots of eu-ros for authentic souvenirs — most, of course, made in China. An occasional BMW, Mercedes or police van maneuvers carefully around the crowds, but au-tomobiles are mostly forbid-den. Clean public toilets are everywhere, but first you drop a coin in a slot.

All these towns used to do something other than sell charm, great food and trin-kets. They were mill towns, government and military centers, agricultural mar-ketplaces, usually clustered around a cathedral as the center of public life. That’s all gone with the wind.

Citizens of these towns today, for the most part, op-erate restaurants, stores and tourists attractions. Then they go home to “new” areas outside the medieval walls.

This gives their towns a cer-tain squeaky clean, Disney quality. Charming, quaint and wonderful, just not quite real. Not quite lived in.

I have pondered this since I returned to charm-ing, quaint, historic Coupe-ville in the heart of Ebey’s Landing National Histori-cal Reserve. It has made me more in love than ever with our historic sites, beauti-ful physical surroundings and great places to eat and shop. I realize that I stirred up a storm a few months ago when I poked some fun in this column at the many, many summertime visi-tors that come here to enjoy briefly what we get to enjoy year-round. Breathe easy, everybody. That’s not where I’m headed this time.

Unlike those old towns in Europe, Coupeville is still a government and military center and an agricultural marketplace. Most of us still live in or near town, not else-where, and we eat, shop and congregate here.

But, like those old towns in Europe, we are increas-ingly dependent on tourism for our economic growth, and in the 21st century that’s a good thing. Tourism is one of the few booming in-dustries almost everywhere around the globe.

And here’s another good thing: Unlike some of those medieval towns in Europe, we aren’t a Disney carica-ture of ourselves — at least not yet. Those of us who live here and our visitors all rec-ognize the genuine feeling of this place we call home, and that’s something to treasure and protect.

We do live in a Historical Reserve.

But for whom is it “re-served?” Fortunately, we have time to figure all this out, including how to better manage our growing popu-larity with tourists. All we need is the will and the con-sensus to do it.

Keep it charming, historic, genuine

Coastal razor clam dig-ging will return Tuesday, Nov. 4.

The Washington Depart-ment of Fish and Wildlife announced two rounds of evening digs after toxin tests showed the bivalves are safe to consume. Diggings start no sooner than 4:26 p.m., Nov. 4, and runs through Nov. 11. The times vary each day depending on evening low tides at Long Beach in Twin Harbors.

Anyone hoping to pull up the razor clams age 15 and older must have the ap-propriate license from the

fish and wildlife department. Another round of dig-

ging has been proposed for late November, depend-ing on favorable toxin tests.

That dig would run from Nov. 20-26 at Long Beach.

Ferringo

William “Bill” Ferringo

William Sebastian Ferringo (Aug. 15, 1932 – Oct. 24, 2014), a longtime res-ident of Coupeville, Wash., passed away peacefully with his family around him under the compassionate care of the CCU staff at Whidbey General.

Bill was an avid landscape, wildlife and portrait photog-rapher both professionally and privately.

Born in Brooklyn, N.Y., he grew up on Staten Island, N.Y., where he learned his love of classical music, played the violin in school and also started using his exceptional talents in photography.

He moved to Las Vegas, where he worked as a wed-ding and portrait photogra-pher and many other profes-sional jobs as well.

He and his wife, Evelyn, retired to Coupeville approxi-mately 25 years ago. After Evelyn passed in 1993, he met his more recent part-ner, Maria, who sadly prede-ceased Bill in 2011.

He is survived by his son, Richard (Lorraine) and

daughters, Kimberly (Alan) and Patricia. Also surviving is a granddaughter, Tausha; extended family; and friends who wish to memorialize Bill. Please feel free to go the fol-lowing website at www.wall infuneralhome.com

If you would like to contrib-ute to your favorite charity in his name, that would be appreciated.

OBITUARIES

William “Bill” George Marter

William “Bill” George Marter passed Oct. 5, 2014, of Alzheimer’s, in Bellingham, Wash. He was 76 years old. Bill was born to Rodney Herbert and Jane (Briggs) Marter in Detroit Sept. 5, 1938. He spent most of his early years in California.

Bill graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 1961, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in mathematics and physics. After graduation, he became an officer in the Air Force, where he was a pilot and served in Vietnam. He was shot down in 1963, sustain-ing substantial injuries that ended his flying carrier. For saving his shot up plane and, more importantly, her crew, Bill received the Distinguished Flying Cross. He also received the Purple Heart.

After his flying career, he became a computer program-mer and systems analyst for the Air Force. After many years with the Air Force, he and his family moved to the Portland, Ore., area as he took his computer program-ming skills to the private sec-tor. Before long, he started his own computer software company. Bill, his wife and their children moved to Welches, Ore., in 1977.

In retirement, he split his time between Welches and Coupeville, Wash. Bill enjoyed sailing, skiing, hik-ing, traveling and reading. Bill is survived by his wife, Suzanne, of 50 years and their two children, Gretchen and Erik, plus four grandchil-dren, Garen, Emma, Griffin and Bennett. Gretchen (Marter) McAbery still lives in the Welches area with her husband, Pat, and their two children, Emma and Griffin. Erik and his wife, Jennifer, live in Portland with their boys, Garen and Bennett. Bill is also survived by his brother, Theodore Meiggs, of Golden, Colo.

A service will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 16 at the Nordic Hall in Coupeville, located at 63 Jacobs Road. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to Oregon Public Radio, 7140 SW Macadam Ave., Portland, OR 97219.

Joan R. Wyatt, R.N.

Joan R. Wyatt, R.N., died peacefully at her home in Coupeville Oct. 24, 2014, at the age of 92. She was born in Plummer, Idaho, to Fred and Gladys (Muzzall) Robertson. Joan grew up in Plummer, graduating from Plummer High School and then went on to Deaconess Hospital School of Nursing in Spokane. She played basket-ball as a young student.

Joan graduated with a Registered Nurse degree.

Wyatt

She accepted her first nurs-ing position in Colorado Springs, Colo., and then went on to Indianapolis. She decided to return to the Northwest and settled in Seattle, where she worked at Harborview Medical Center, Virginia Mason and Firland T.B. Sanatorium in North Seattle. She reconnected with a friend from Plummer, and soon she and John Wyatt were married.

Joan and John had a plan to become a commercial fish-ing team. They lived on a houseboat on Lake Union and fished the area of LaPush to Port Angeles in their trawl-er. In 1956, they decided they wanted to begin their fam-ily and Seattle was not the place to have their children grow up. They visited sev-eral locations before decid-ing on Whidbey Island. They really liked the idea of having their family grow up in such a beautiful area. Joan and John purchased property near the Captain Whidbey Inn, and 57 years later, it is still home. For a time, she served as camp nurse at Camp Casey during the summer camping events.

Joan was hired by Whidbey General Hospital as the surgical nursing director for the hospital shortly after it opened in 1970 and spent the next 17 years in that posi-tion. She became a pioneer in advanced health care on Whidbey Island. John died suddenly in 1975 and Joan was left to raise five children as a single parent.

Joan retired from nursing in 1986. She had a passion, and over the years, devel-oped a huge garden complex at home. She also grew fuch-sias and became an expert on

them. She received certifica-tion as a master gardener and was a member of the North Cascade Fuchsia Society. She was a pioneer in organic gardening, experimented with plant grafting, was a beekeeper, an excellent cook and believed that you should eat what you grow. She was always canning goods from her garden.

Joan loved following baseball and especially her beloved Mariners. She would gather her own scor-ing sheets and record every moment of each game she listened to or watched.

the primary race.Hannold said he was

grateful to his loyal volun-teers, who he said made up for the big disparity in spending between him and Jacks.

“It was really a shoe leath-er, grassroots campaign,” he said.

Jacks could not be reached for comment.

In the spirited race for county treasurer, Republican candidate Wanda Grone is ahead of her former boss, incumbent Ana Maria Nunez, a Democrat.

Grone has 12,459 votes cast in her favor, or 54 percent, while Nunez has 10,507 votes, or 46 percent.

Grone said Tuesday that she’s crossing her fingers.

“I’m encouraged by the early vote count,” she said,

“but I learned in the primary the person with the most votes isn’t necessarily the person who wins.”

Nunez offered a prepared statement.

“During our nation’s worse recession,” she said, “I was able to invest our scarce dollars to see gains and more importantly my office kept people faced with tax foreclosures in their homes. I hope the good citi-zens of Island County will continue to be as well served as I have served them.”

Island County Auditor Sheilah Crider, a Republican, is ahead with 12,368 votes, or 56 percent. Challenger Rebecca Wagner, an inde-pendent, garnered 9,553 votes, or 44 percent.

In state Legislative District 10, Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, is far ahead of Libertarian chal-lenger Michael Scott. Smith

has 77 percent in the district while Scott has 23 percent.

Rep. Dave Hayes, R-Camano, is also leading his opponent, Skagit County Democrat Nick Petrish. Hayes has 59 percent of the vote and Petrish has 41 per-cent.

The one bright spot for Democrats is the race for the U.S. House seat. Rep. Rick Larsen, the Democratic incumbent, is ahead of Republican challenger B.J. Guillot. Larsen has 62 per-cent and Guillot has 38 per-cent.

Banks said the inves-tigation will look into “irregularities in compen-sation” described in the recently released report from the state Auditor’s Office. He said he didn’t want to be too specific because the investigation may be larger in scope.

The accountability audit largely focused on Martha Rose, the former executive director of Is-land Transit. The auditors said they found discrepan-cies between Rose’s calen-dar and her vacation leave balance.

Banks said State Patrol Chief John Batiste autho-rized the investigation, but he hasn’t discussed it with detectives yet and doesn’t know the timeline.

Banks and Island County Sheriff Mark Brown decided it would be best if an outside agency conducted the investiga-tion because of the po-tential that a conflict of interest. Island Transit’s board of directors is com-posed of elected officials from the county and the three municipalities on the island.

Banks said his decision to seek a criminal investi-gation wasn’t in response to any pressure from politicians or residents, though some have called for just such an investiga-tion.

Banks said Island County Commissioner Aubrey Vaughan was the first person who, months ago, brought to his atten-

tion potential problems at Island Transit. Banks said he opted to wait until results of the audit were released to make any de-cisions about a criminal investigation.

“I’ve been following the investigation from the start,” he said.

The report states that Rose’s calendar shows she was on vacation for four weeks in 2013 and three weeks in 2014, but only six days of leave were de-ducted from her leave bal-ance from August 2012 to September 2014.

In addition, her calen-dar showed Rose attended a conference for 16 days in April 2013 when flight records showed she was only in the same city as the conference for four days.

Her calendar showed she was at a conference for 19 days in September 2013 when flight records indi-cate she was only in the same city as the confer-ence for five day

In a final payout, Rose was compensated for un-used vacation and sick leave.

are family, with all the fun a family can bring.”

“Fair Exchange” is the first of two productions the theatre troupe will perform this school year with the sec-ond play, “Swing Fever,” hap-pening in March.

There will be four per-formances, all starting at 7 p.m., happening Nov. 7, 8, 14 and 15.

Written by Kurtz Gordon, “Fair Exchange” is a comedy with suspense. It involves substituting male honor stu-dents to escort female honor students at two different high schools during the spring prom.

Except, the transition isn’t so smooth.

Miranda Kortuem, a junior at Coupeville, de-scribes the play as “a student exchange arrangement gone wrong involving a spring prom and a felon.”

The felon is played by ju-

nior Sebastian Davis, whose sinister character is a depar-ture from the usual “romantic guy” roles he’s played since middle school.

His schoolmates tease him about smiling too much onstage.

“Sebastian is really bad at making a smug look on his face,” Koruem said. “In the last act, he’s not supposed to smile.”

But everyone is smiling on this rehearsal night.

The troupe has been

practicing for their perfor-mance since before the start of school in August.

“I love it, especially show week,” senior Amanda Hoesman-Foley. “The thrill you get is so great.”

Soccer team reaches district but falls 3-0 in opening round

Football loses sloppy game at Concrete

By Jim WallerStaff Reporter

Coupeville senior Aaron Curtin earned his second consecutive trip to the state tennis tournament by placing second in singles in the Dis-trict 3 1A playoffs last week.

The Wolves soccer team finished second in the Olympic League and qualified for district but lost 3-0 in the first round to Vashon Island.

The football team fell 52-22 on a rain-soaked field in Concrete Fri-day, and the volleyball team closed out the season with two losses to Port Townsend.

TennisCurtin earns another trip to state tournament

Playing at the Lakewood Rac-quet Club Friday, Oct. 31, Curtin fell in the finals 6-3, 6-2 to last year’s sec-ond-place finisher at state, Charles Wright’s Griffin Welsh.

Coupeville’s other players in the tournament, Sebastian Davis and the doubles team of Loren Nelson and Connor McCormick, suffered their second loss of the meet in the first match Friday and were elimi-nated. Each could have placed as high as third by winning out.

Coupeville coach Ken Stange said Curtin put up “a monstrous fight” while playing “some of the best tennis of his life.”

Curtin qualified for state last year in doubles with then-senior Ben Etzell.

“Qualifying for state in doubles is one thing, but earning a state berth in singles is a much more dif-ficult proposition,” Stange said. “He beat some tough players, and he gave the champ some stiff competi-tion.”

Davis placed fifth, losing 6-2, 6-0 in the consolation bracket to Vashon Island’s Steen Jennings, who went on to finish third.

The district tournament was a “valuable experience” for Davis, Stange said. “Next year, he’ll be the guy who is vying for a state berth instead of settling for fifth.”

Nelson and McCormick lost 6-3, 6-0 to an Eatonville team.

“In their first full year playing varsity doubles, they managed to qualify for districts,” Stange said. “Like Sebastian, they gained valu-able experience in seeing the quality of play at the higher-level tourneys. Next year, they will likely make an impact at districts.

“All in all, this was a pretty spec-tacular district tourney for CHS,”

Stange said. “All three of our en-trants won at least one match, and we even qualified a singles player for state, the first time I’ve had back-to-back state appearances in my 19 seasons of coaching the boys and girls.”

In Thursday’s first round, Curtin and Davis each won.

Curtin pulled out a three-set win 7-6(8-6), 4-6, 6-3; Davis prevailed 6-2, 6-2.

The pair each faced a Charles Wright athlete in the second round, with Curtin winning 6-4, 6-1, and Davis losing 6-2, 6-1.

Nelson and McCormick won by default in the first round when one of their opponents withdrew be-cause of a migraine.

That led to a second-round matchup with Charles Wright’s three-time state champions, the Grenley twins. The Grenleys won 6-0, 6-0.

FootballConcrete slogs way to win over Wolves

Coupeville’s high-speed offense

was stuck in the mud at Concrete as the Lions whipped the Wolves 52-22 Friday, Oct. 31, in a nonleague game.

After heavy rains, the Concrete field was a sloppy mess, according to Coupeville coach Tony Maggio.

“It was the worst I have seen,” he said. “When you stepped on it, you sank up to your ankles in mud.”

Maggio noted that “both teams had to play on it,” so it wasn’t an excuse, adding, “Concrete is a very good team.”

“Their style of play was better suited for those conditions,” he said.

The Wolves rely on speed, and cutting and acceleration were dif-ficult in the muck. To make matters worse, Coupeville’s best power run-ner, Lathom Kelley, was injured in the first quarter and did not return.

Concrete, behind a large line, plays a power running game with an occasional “pop pass,” according to Maggio.

“They out-muscled us at the line of scrimmage,” Maggio said. “It was right up their alley, not ours. We just couldn’t stop them.”

Had the game been played in better conditions, Maggio said, the

Wolves would have been more com-petitive.

The Lions (7-1) scored two touchdowns to Coupeville’s one in each of the first two quarters, giving them a 28-14 lead at the break.

The game’s turning point came at the beginning of the second half, Maggio said.

The Wolves began the third quarter by recovering an onside kick and started to march in for a score. The drive, however, stalled and Coupeville came away with nothing.

The momentum shifted back to Concrete, and the Lions, the North-west 2B/1B League champions, pounded in 24 points in the quarter to win going away.

Coupeville’s Josh Bayne slid his way to 136 yards on 12 carries for two touchdowns and a two-point conversion. Jacob Martin finished with 30 yards on seven carries, and Wiley Hesselgrave had 23 on three tries.

QB Joel Walstad hit 12 of 26 passes for 172 yards and a score.

Hesselgrave caught six passes for 77 yards and a touchdown. C.J. Smith grabbed four passes for 52

yards and a two-point conversion, and Ryan Griggs had three catches for 43 yards.

Bayne led the defense with 10 tackles; Aaron Wright had four; and Hesselgrave, Oscar Liquidano and Matt Shank three each.

The Wolves (4-5) wrap up their season with another non-league game, hosting Bellevue Christian (1-6) at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 7.

The Olympic and Nisqually leagues match up non-playoff teams for a final game at the end of each season.

“We want to beat last year’s record,” Maggio said. The Wolves finished 2013 at 4-5.

SoccerCoupeville takes 2nd but falls at district

The Wolves split with Port Townsend during the final week of Olympic League play, and the win in the finale gave Coupeville second place in the Olympic League.

The momentum, however, couldn’t carry Coupeville to a vic-tory in the district tournament.

The Wolves lost in the single-elimination first round of district 3-0 to Vashon Island at Kingston High School.

Coupeville earned the right to be the home team in the match af-ter finishing second in the Olympic League.

District rules require playoff games to be on turf, and the closest available field was Kingston, ac-cording to coach Troy Cowan.

“The Wolves played hard and never quit, which has been a com-mon trait all year,” Cowan said. “We battled the entire match, just couldn’t maintain possession long enough to make a substantial differ-ence in the match.”

Coupeville struggled with the Pirates’ speed, Cowan said.

“Vashon Island was a quality team that had a very strong pos-session game and was full of track stars,” he said.

When the Wolves were able to make runs, captain Erin Rosen-kranz was the “catalyst.”

“Erin played extremely well,” Cowan said. “I am very proud of Erin and honored to have coached her for the past two seasons.”

During the bus ride to the match, Cowan said he reminded his team “how lucky they were,” add-ing, “Oak Harbor’s soccer team was probably home in bed, South Whid-bey’s girls soccer team was probably doing the same, but Coupeville’s soccer team was on the pitch still playing. Today, right now, CHS is the best soccer team on the island, and that says a lot.”

The Wolves finished the season 6-7.

3-0 Thursday, Oct. 30.The Wolves were so domi-

nant in the win, keeper Julia Myers touched the ball only once.

After numerous chances, Coupeville finally found the net when Rosenkranz scored with 19 minutes left in the first half.

Six minutes later Sage

Renninger scored off an as-sist from Rosenkranz.

Rosenkranz also assisted on senior Marisa Etzell’s second-half goal.

“Best passing and pos-session match of the year for us,” Cowan said. “They really moved the ball well and played a very intelligent match.

“Finishing second is awe-some and the entire Coupe-ville community is proud of our Lady Wolves and the ter-rific season we had.”

VolleyballWolves can’t catch necessary win

The Coupeville volley-ball team needed to defeat Port Townsend at least once in their two-match series the final week of the regular sea-son to qualify for the postsea-son, but the Wolves were un-able to stop the Redhawks.

Port Townsend won a five-match thriller on its home court Tuesday, Oct. 28, before ending the Wolves’ season 3-1 in Coupeville Thursday, Oct. 30.

Had the Wolves won both matches, they would have placed second to Klahowya (7-0, 14-0) in the final Olym-pic League standings.

The top three teams qual-ified for district.

One Coupeville win over Port Townsend would have created a three-way tie for second with the two schools and Chimacum. That would have forced a mini-tourna-ment to determine which two teams advanced to district.

Coupeville’s first loss to Port Townsend was a roller coaster for the Wolves.

The Redhawks drilled the Wolves 25-5 in the first set, then Coupeville recovered to win two heart-stoppers, 33-31 and 26-24.

Port Townsend took its turn winning a close game, securing the fourth set 25-23; then it won the match 15-11.

“A tough loss,” coach Breanne Smedley said. “They played their hearts out, with the exception of game one.

“We did a good job of re-ducing our errors and playing to our potential tonight.

“We had a hard time holding on to some of our early leads in the fourth a fifth games, leaving us with too much catch up to do to-wards the end.”

Valen Trujillo hit all 23 of her serves, producing three aces. She also had 38 digs.

Madeline Strasburg add-ed eight kills, 23 digs and five

aces; Hailey Hammer had 15 kills and six digs; Kacie Kiel had 10 kills and 25 digs; Lau-ren Rose had 37 assists; and Katrina McGranahan had three blocks.

In the second match, the Redhawks (3-3, 9-5) won 25-16, 14-25, 25-19, 25-19.

The Wolves (1-5, 1-11) battled to a 14-12 lead in the third game, but the Red-hawks went on an 8-1 run to go up 20-15. Coupeville was within two, 21-19, before Port Townsend finished with a flourish.

In the fourth set, Coupe-

ville scooted to a 5-1 lead. After the Redhawks tied it at 5, the game remained close until PT went up 18-14. From there, the Wolves could not cut the deficit to less than three.

Smedley said that the strategy in the rematch was to attack.

The Redhawks did a good job covering Coupeville’s continuous onslaught.

“We had a hard time find-ing open spots and exploiting the defense,” Smedley said.

The match was the final contest for Coupeville seniors

McKayla Bailey, who was out with an injury, Hammer, Kiel, Strasburg and Monica Vidoni.

Three of the seniors were among the statistical leaders.

Strasburg finished with eight kills, five aces and 22 digs; Kiel had seven kills, three aces and 18 digs; and Hammer added 15 kills and two blocks.

Sophomore Trujillo re-corded 31 digs, and fresh-man setter Rose dished out 27 assists.

stuffFirewood, 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.

Creature Comfort Often just going to the vet can be stressful and take a toll on your pet. Many animals release pheromones (chemical scent signals) under traumatic conditions that linger in the air and may cause fear reactions in animals that detect them.

why housecalls our practiceCreature Comfort Veterinary Housecalls was designed for dog, cat and exotic pet owners who would prefer an alternative approach to their pet’s veterinary needs. Creature Comfort offers convenient, highly personalized veterinary care in the calm environment of your own home in south or central Whidbey Island.

Services offered at your home can include but are not limited to:

• Thorough physical and dental exams

• Preventative medicine

• Diagnostic medicine

• Internal medicine

• Behavior management

• Home euthanasia

For many ailing, anxious or disabled animals, the experience of the trip to the vet adds stress and further complicates health or behavioral issues. If your pet’s health is ailing, limiting the amount of time that they spend anxious or distressed can keep them more comfortable and can actually prolong their life.

Creature Comforts puts your pet’s emotional and physical well being first by treating your pet in the comfort of their own home. Working individuals, families with children, multiple pet owners and the elderly or disabled are among the many who also benefit from the ease of a housecall appointment for their pet.
