Even on his 90th birthday, Bob Massey remained dedi-cated to his craft.

The radio announcer worked a few hours on Monday morn-ing playing music in his regular time slot at KSQM 91.5 FM despite a busy day ahead. The Sequim station opened its doors for a few hours to a large crowd on March 9 to celebrate Massey, who was one of the first announcers heard on-air for KSQM on Dec. 7, 2008.

Despite the upcoming party and 11 family members waiting to go to lunch with their dad, grandfather and great-grand-father, Massey wanted to thank his listeners from around the globe from Sequim to Alaska to Germany.

Clallam County com-missioners have given Carlsborg a plan to deal with its wastewater.

Commissioners formal-ized their intent to adopt the Carlsborg Wastewater Facilities Plan, one that out-lines delivery of wastewater from the Carlsborg Urban Growth Area to Sequim’s Water Reclamation Facility, on March 10.

The commissioners’ in-tent to adopt the facilities plan was a necessary step to continue progress toward the construction of the sewer collection system be-

cause Department of Ecol-ogy officials have to ensure the construction plans are consistent with an approved sewerage general plan, Bob Martin, Clallam County

Public Works Administra-tive director, said.

Com mis-sioners intend to adopt the plan as the S e w e r a g e

General Plan for the UGA and incorporate it into the county’s Comprehensive Plan update and Carlsborg Capital Facilities Plan.

According to the resolu-tion, waiting for formal adoption could delay con-struction. The county needs approval from the Depart-ment of Ecology before it

Swim meets in Sequim aren’t just for students any-more.

The Sequim Aquatic Rec-reation Center hosted its first ever adult swim meet on Sunday, March 8, with about 90 people from the Olympic Peninsula to Seattle area competing in the Old School Masters Meet.

SARC aquatics manager Gail Sumpter said it was the busiest she’s ever seen the pool.

“A lot of the people I’ve spoken to told me they didn’t know Sequim had a pool,” Sumpter said.

Swimmers of ages 18-83 competed in the event through the Pacific North-west Association of Masters Swimmers, which is sanc-tioned by the U.S. Masters Swimming.

Jan Kavavas of Edmonds, 83, was the meet’s oldest competitor.

“I keep active whenever I can,” Kavavas said. “I go to a couple of meets a year and in April I’ll go to the champion-ships (in Federal Way). Last year I was the only official and swimmer competing.”

The term “Masters” is a misnomer, meet director Ja-son Ridle said. Ridle coaches teams in Sequim and Port Angeles three days a week.

“The cornerstone of our program is that not everyone wants to swim in a meet but we have enough going on that you can take it as far as you want,” he said.

Ridle said the first com-ment he usually receives is that people want to get in shape before joining.

“I tell them there’s no point in waiting, because that’s what we try to do everyday,” he said.

Herb Cook, 72, a Gardiner resident, SARC user and a Masters swimmer for 25-plus years, said everyone is wel-come in the program.

“One of the good things about Masters swimmers, whether you are the fastest or one of the slower people, which unfortunately at this point would include me, you can swim and everyone is happy for you,” Cook said. “It’s all about keeping fit and enjoying the competition and who you are swimming with.”

The meet logisticsCook, who helped orga-

nize the meet at SARC, at

610 N. Fifth Ave., said the idea began brewing after an outdoor meet was cancelled, leaving a gap in March with no events leading into the championships on April 11-12 in Federal Way.

Normally, the Association of Masters sponsors as many as seven indoor meets and five outdoor meets a year from Bellingham to the Ta-coma area, Cook said.

“I thought it went extreme-ly well,” he said. “I thought going in if we get 60-70 people it would be a great success and we had 90 — that’s a real accomplishment.”

One factor that helped it run smoothly was that SARC received a donation for the Masters’ programs software to record results.

Cook said he feels that even though many of the swim-mers at the meet don’t swim in Sequim regularly, the word will travel about the meet and facility.

“How that plays into SARC’s efforts down the road, who knows, but it certainly can help,” he said.

Sumpter said she thinks

Growing spagetti sauce

BARKHUIS

The Olympic View Community Foundation is hosting a special fundraising training entitled: “Raising Money — More and Better” presented by Dr. Stuart Grover, an inspiring fundraising consultant, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Thursday, March 26, in the  Peninsula College Keegan

Lecture Hall.In October 2014, Grover, through the

Secretary of State’s Charities Advisory Council, presented a full day workshop on “Ethics of Fundraising.” This presentation was so popular there were multiple requests for another opportunity to hear him speak.

In this year’s interactive and wide-ranging presentation, participants will hear

about how to identify and cultivate your best prospects, how to turn event attendees into major donors and how to work with your fellow organizations to grow the phil-anthropic pie.

This full-day session includes discussion and group activities designed to help apply the training to one’s organization.  

Grover,   pre -senter and discus-sion leader, has been involved in fundraising since 1982 and built the region’s larg-est fundraising consulting firm after purchasing the Seattle-based Collins Group in 1990.

Working with more than 400 nonprofits throughout the Northwest, Grover gained a reputation for original thinking and a quirky sense of humor. He has served on many boards and received Group Health’s Cooperative Achievement Award in 2011. He received NDOA’s Profes-sional Achievement Award, has published two books and many articles on fundraising and currently serves as chairman of the Secretary of State’s Charities Advisory Council.

The cost of the training is $100. This includes up to three representatives from each organization and lunch.

Registrants must be a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit and priority will be given to those who have participated in any of the previous three workshops sponsored in part by Olympic View Community Foundation in the past year.

For more information or to reserve seats, e-mail Leslie Lauren at lalauren@ovcf.onmicrosoft.com or call 360-797-1338.

Foundation offers training on fundraising

Chris Hugo, Sequim director of Community Development, said the plan is a “pretty complete docu-ment” and that it moves the plan, called Sequim 120, into the review-

ing and adoption phase.Tentatively, the draft would be

up for review in April and final ap-proval in the summer with its first public hearing held in the new Civic Center.

Hugo said the plan’s release of a preliminary draft is like a soft open-ing of a restaurant.

“The first month won’t have a high level of circulation,” he said.

First discussed in April 2011, the Comprehensive Plan, which sets policies for growth and develop-ment through 2035, includes guide-lines for urban growth, land use, transportation, capital facilities/utilities, housing, parks and recre-

ation, economic development, and energy and the environment.

Hugo told city councilors on March 9 that some of the new zones would include a commercial/light industrial zone along U.S. Highway 101 near the city’s shop and Sequim School District’s bus barn, a planned resort area near

John Wayne Marina in line with Wayne Enterprises’ future plans and a senior living district near Fifth Avenue.

Elements of the plan set prec-edents for the city’s budget plans each year.

Since 2008, Bob Massey has broadcast from KSQM 91.5 FM five days a week. He feels “honored” that he’s regarded as the oldest active radio announcer in the U.S. Sequim Gazette photo by Matthew Nash

Bankston said Massey, who continues “The Classy Bob Massey” show 9 a.m.-noon weekdays, has been at the station five days a week as a volunteer lending his voice.

“This is what keeps us all young here; the inspiration that Bob gives us,” he said.

KSQM’s news director Ed Evans confirms that Massey is believed to be the oldest active radio broadcaster in the U.S.

“What an honor,” Massey said of the achievement.

Massey has been broadcasting for most of his life starting in his parents’ Tennessee basement with a transmit-ter. He fell in love with music from his mother’s piano playing at home and at the cinema for silent movies.

In his career, he’s played some of the best artists in the world like Doris Day and Frank Sinatra and interviewed some of the greats like Burl Ives and Vaughn Monroe, one of his favorites.

To honor his achievements, volun-teers at KSQM gathered honors such as a resolution from the Washington Senate sponsored by Jim Hargrove, a flag that was flown over the state capitol from the Secretary of State’s office and Sequim Mayor Candace Pratt honored him as well.

On-air everywhere Massey’s voice spanned the U.S. be-

fore coming to Sequim. He started in the U.S. Armed Forces Radio Network while with the U.S. Army in 1945, broadcasting entertainment to soldiers in Germany.

He moved to Palm Beach, Fla., after World War II and went on to work for a handful of stations in Southern Florida before applying to an ad in Anchorage, Alaska, in 1963.

He recalls the Good Friday 9.2 mag-nitude earthquake from March 27, 1964, distinctly where he was working from the KHAR radio station where racks of items fell inside and the sta-tion’s tower swayed. He checked on his family but to maintain “normalcy” for locals, he continued to broadcast.

Six years later, Massey became a Washingtonian where he worked for Yakima’s KIT Radio and later finished his career at KBRD in Tacoma.

Massey and his wife, Margaret, re-tired to Sequim in 1992 and she died in 2006.

He read about the new Sequim radio opportunity for on-air talent in the newspaper and by chance met KSQM founder Rick Perry in the doctor’s of-fice, Massey said.

He’s been a morning staple for local and international listeners ever since.

The new process of radio with com-puters and the Internet was all new to Massey, he said, but he learned.

“What a change from the early days of 45s and LPs,” he said.

But looking ahead, he’s not sure what the future holds for radio as a whole.

“So many stations have gone talk,” he said. “There is a place in the world for a station like ours. It fills a niche. It’s great to have a station like this in Sequim.”

KSQM 91.5 FM, 577 W. Washington St., can be reached at 681-0000 and streamed online at ksqmfm.com.

The lack of snowpack in the Olympic Mountains may prove to be an obstacle for mitigation proj-ects within the Dungeness Water Rule boundary.

Although the design for an aquifer recharge site located near Jake Way off Carlsborg Road is complete, it relies on increased river flow from snowmelt to be an effective water management strategy.

“The way it’s looking, I don’t know if we’ll have enough water available for aquifer recharge,” Joe Holtrop, Clallam Conservation District executive director, said.

The design concept for the re-charge site entails an open trench, perforated pipe and drain rock.

Ideally, water from the Dunge-ness River would be captured and allowed to infiltrate into the ground, Holtrop explained, but with little snowpack and thus little runoff into the watershed, he isn’t sure if enough water will be avail-able to divert mid-May through mid-July when he’d normally an-ticipate high river conditions.

Possible drought yearThe Dungeness watershed is

one of 62 watersheds Washington Department of Ecology officials oversees. Of the 62, it’s one of 40 watersheds DOE officials have red flagged for possible drought, Mike Gallagher, water resources section head for the Department of Ecology Southwest Regional, said.

“A drought can be declared when an area is experiencing or projected to experience a water supply that is below 75 percent of normal and water users within those areas will likely incur undue hardships as a result of the shortage,” Gallagher said. “The Dungeness is well below normal.”

Adding to the potential impact of an unusually warm winter, the Dungeness doesn’t have a reservoir, thus despite the significant rainfall received earlier in the year, it still leaves the area subject to water shortages, Gallagher explained.

In preparation to provide possible drought relief, DOE officials have submitted requests for drought relief emergency funding with the Legislature, but those funds have yet to be confirmed, Dan Partridge, communications manager for

DOE’s Water Resources Program, said. If a drought is declared, relief funds could be used to encourage local irrigators not to grow a certain crop or possibly lease water from senior water right holders.

Push for more mitigationDespite the looming snow inven-

tory, County Commissioner Jim McEntire recently wrote to DOE officials seeking increased mitiga-

tion efforts within the confines of the Dungeness Water Rule stretching from Bagley Creek on the west to Bell Creek on the east.

“I want to make sure the rule works

the way it was designed to,” McEn-tire said. “I want to urge DOE to be as specific as possible when it comes to mitigation.”

Most mitigation is being done on an individual property owner level, Gallagher said. Property owners are primarily choosing to purchase mitigation packages avail-able through the Dungeness Water Exchange, acting like a water bank.

Property owners can submit their own mitigation design and plans for DOE approval, but Gallagher said they’ve yet to receive a plan.

Although DOE officials have yet to formally respond to McEntire’s letter, Gallagher said they’re aware of his requests and creating ad-ditional mitigation is a “goal” they “share with the county.”

To pursue this goal DOE officials are doing two things, Gallagher said — one, they’re welcoming local partnerships to explore ways to provide outdoor water to the southern area of the rule, and two, they’re working with Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife officials studying the need for re-strictive water management in part to sensitive fish habitat. The WDFW official’s final report is expected late 2015 or early next year.

“We need to wait for the outcomes of that study,” Gallagher said. “But, in the meantime we’ll have broader discussion about additionally op-tions … whatever those may be, like land use or deep well water supply.”

The Dungeness Water Rule, es-tablished by DOE officials, went into effect more than two years ago and has since limited new water users within thousands of acres in the southern portion of the rule area to indoor, domestic water use only.

“This has no doubt negatively af-fected both land use and potential land values for private landowners

within this area,” McEntire wrote in his letter dated Jan. 27.

The Dungeness Water Rule, its impacts and the Carlsborg sewer system are the “hot topics” for his district and “both have a lot to do with water and the economy,” McEntire said.

The state Legislature earmarked $2 million from the state budget for water supply and streamflow mitigation purposes focused within the rule area (Water Resource Inventory Area 18) and should to be used before the next biennial budget takes effect July 1, McEntire explained.

“We’re near the end of the second year of the budget and I don’t want to assume those funds will still be available,” he said.

Gallagher said about $1.6 million already has been contracted out and the remaining money may go toward new mitigation efforts or toward existing projects in need of additional funds, but it’s unlikely it won’t be available after the next biennial budget.

The Olympic Medical Center Foundation’s Red, Set, Go Heart Luncheon presented by the James-town S’Klallam Tribe set an attendance record Fri-day, Feb. 28, as more than 280 people gathered to learn how to prevent heart disease.

Held at the Vern Burton Community Center in Port Angeles, the event raised just over $50,000.

Proceeds from the event go toward the purchase of new cardiac rehabilitation exercise equipment for the Olympic Heart Center, OMCF Executive Director Bruce Skinner said.

“Because of our spon-sors, 100 percent of all money raised at the lun-cheon itself will go toward the purchase of the new equipment,” event chair-man Karen Rogers said. “In the past we have been able to provide funds for equipment that has saved people’s lives and we want to continue to do that.”

Speakers at the event included local cardiologist

Dr. Kara Urnes, Dr. John Mi-gnone of Swedish Heart and Vascular Institute, and Deb Reed, who told attendees how they can “Take Exercise to Heart,” the theme of the event.

Sequim resident LeAnn Stanley delivered the event’s annual heart disease “survi-vor” story.

About awarenessThe educational lunch

promotes that the key to eradicating heart disease is education, with this year’s message being proper ex-ercise.

“The purpose of our event is to inspire women to become more educated on how to improve their heart health. Many women are surprised to learn that heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women,” Rogers said.

“We are still receiving donations toward the pur-chase of the exercise equip-ment,” said Skinner.

People interested in con-tributing may contact the foundation office at 417-7144, Skinner said.

The Clallam County Physicians Community Benefit Fund announced in early March the award-ing of several academic scholarships and medi-cally related grants to be awarded in 2015.

The benefit fund was formed in 1995 when Re-gence BlueShield joined with Clallam County Phy-sicians Service, Inc., a company formed by local physicians to provide health care coverage to Clallam County residents.

Academic scholarships for $6,000 go to Elisa

Reid and Kelsey Schnei-der. A $2,500 academic scholarship goes to Shelby Napiontek and $2,000 scholarships go to Kelvin Herzog, Kathleen Mi-nor, Richard Putnam and Mari Yamamoto. A $1,500 scholarship goes to Alicia Gilstrom.

Grant awards go to Pen-insula Behavioral Health, $5,000; Olympic Penin-sula YMCA, $3,500; Roo-sevelt Elementary School, $1,968.55, and National Alliance on Mental Health (NAMI) of Clallam County, $756.

Record attendance for Red, Set, Go! Heart Luncheon

On Saturday, March 14, at 1 p.m., the New Dungeness Light Station Association will present the “History of the New Dungeness Light Station” at Olympic Unitarian Universalist Fellowship at 73 Howe Road in Agnew, off South Barr Road and Old Olympic Highway.

The event is just one in a monthly series of events throughout 2015 to celebrate the 100th anniver-sary of the Dungeness National Wildlife Refuge and is free and open to the public.

Additional events celebrating the refuge’s first 100 years will be held throughout 2015. Scheduled activities include bird walks, geology walks and a presentation by the Coastal Watershed Institute.

There also will be a Kids Day in June at the refuge with many hands-on activities. Visit www.dunge-ness100.com for schedules and additional information on the many events planned for the year-long celebration.

Amber Klienhans, owner/adminis-trator of Faith by Choice Home Care in Sequim, makes one thing clear almost immediately: “If my employees are not supported, my clients are not supported.

“If your caregivers aren’t treated right, they’re not going to be able to provide good care. It’s a full circle. In my experience, caregiver staff have not been treated well as a whole and we, as a company, are trying to change that.”

With nearly half of her life spent in the field of health care, the 34-year-old Klienhans has seen the industry as a certified nursing assistant, so-cial worker and manager of a home health care agency. Now, with her own company since June 2014, she feels empowered to provide the kind of support she believes both her clients and employees deserve.

“We do train our own caregivers in the staff classroom,” said Klienhans, who is a certified instructor through the state in the 75-hour Home Care Aide course. “The big thing is I’ll be able to train my own staff the way I know they should be trained, which makes for better caregivers — that’s for sure.”

Through its 26 employees spread over Clallam and Jef-ferson counties, the company provides services such as routine personal care, hygiene assistance, laundry, cleaning, shopping, meal planning and cook-ing, rides to doctor appointment and errands, medication reminders and 24-hour non-medical care so that its clients may remain in their homes with assistance and still maintain some of their independence.

“Sometimes clients feel like they’re losing their independence by having a caregiver so ours are trained to offer ‘a helping hand.’ They really love their

The Washington State School Directors’ Asso-ciation hosts a series of 14 workshops throughout Washington in March and April to encourage citizens to serve on their local school boards.

One of the workshops is in Sequim, scheduled for 6:30-8:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 31, at the Sequim School District boardroom, 503 N. Sequim Ave.

The “Become a School Board Member” workshops

are free and last two hours. They provide an overview of the roles and responsi-bilities of a school director and how to file to become a candidate.

Workshops are sched-uled for March and April, well before the May 12 fil-ing week.

Three Sequim School Board director positions are open in November 2015: director District 1 (filled now by Heather Jeffers), director District 3 (filled by John Bridge) and one at-large director position (filled by Walter Johnson).

Online registration at http://bit.ly/1A56gIz is rec-ommended. See www.wssda.org.

State group offers free school board director workshops

finalists with Kathryn Oroz-co, superintendent of the Whitefish School District in Whitefish, Mont., and Tom Gresch, interim superinten-dent at East Valley.

He notified the Sequim School Board and adminis-trators immediately after the decision was made, Shea said. Over the weekend he’ll draft a note for the Sequim School District about his decision.

Shea said he spent 11 hours in East Valley School District on Thursday meeting with

SuperFrom page A-1

six different staff and com-munity groups for his final interview.

Previously, the Sequim School Board indicated it will contact the consulting firm, McPherson & Jacob-son, that helped bring Shea to Sequim three years ago if he took the job.

“They will sit down and con-sider their options,” Shea said.

Shea said he consid-ered and finally applied for the position in January for family reasons. Shea’s mother was diagnosed with cancer last March and has undergone chemotherapy treatment since, and last November Shea’s stepfather died. He said the only place he’d leave Sequim for is the Spokane Valley in order to be close to his mother.

Shea, who is from Spo-kane, was hired in Sequim

in July 2012 after teaching, serving as a principal and executive director of Hu-man Services mostly in the Spokane area. His original plan was to work here 5-7 years before looking to move back to Spokane area, he said.

East Valley has more than 4,000 students, seven schools, 480 staff members and an annual operating budget of $44.4 million.

Shea said Sequim’s two recent school construction bonds that voters didn’t ap-prove (one in April 2014 and Feb. 10) were not a factor in his decision to apply.

He sees any future plan-ning for school construction not being affected by his deci-sion to move either.

“Everything continues to go forward,” he said. “I’ll continue to serve as super-intendent until the last day.”

Three Sequim board positions are open in fall

by ALANA LINDEROTHSequim Gazette

The Clallam County Board of Commissioners is seeking to extend the temporary zoning controls, Ordinance 896, established for legalized recre-ational marijuana.

A public hearing is scheduled at 10:30 a.m., Tues-day, March 17, at the Clallam County Courthouse to discuss and pass a possible six-month extension.

Given it’s been nearly six months since the board approved the interim ordinance for the siting, establishment, notification and operation of any structures or uses relating to recreational marijuana production, processing or retail, the controls will expire April 7.

Following the approval of the temporary zoning

controls in early October, the Planning Commis-sion, a nine-member volunteer advisory panel, and Department of Community Development staff were to make a recommendation for permanent controls prior to the ordinance expiring, but time devoted to the Shoreline Master Program took precedent.

“Due to a scheduling conflict with the Shore-line Master Program, staff (with DCD) will need additional time with the Planning Commission in identifying what zones can accommodate recreational marijuana and processing,” DCD planning manager Kevin LoPiccolo wrote in a progress report.

At their Feb. 23 work session county com-missioners were presented with three options by DCD staff that included: let controls expire, extend the controls or extend the controls with modifications.

After discussing the given options, “the BOCC agreed to extend the interim zoning controls known as Ordinance 896,” LoPiccolo said, but to

do so will require a public hearing. Although the Planning Commission and

DCD need additional time to make a permanent recommendation, since the approval of the or-dinance, the commission has held seven work sessions to address permanent controls, LoPic-colo told the county commissioners.

From their work sessions, the Planning Com-mission and DCD staff have confronted most zone designations and whether or not recreational marijuana activity is permitted, permitted subject to performance standards or prohibited. However, according to the status report some zones may undergo additional “performance standards.”

“Performance standards have been discussed with the Planning Commission, but there has not been a consensus on the application on where and how to apply,” LoPiccolo said.

Performance standards may include increased setbacks, restriction when abutting residential zones and minimum lot size, exterior lighting and landscape requirements.

County commissioners look to extend pot zoning controls More time is needed for recommendation, staff says

can begin construction of a wastewater collection system.

Martin hopes to get the construc-tion project out to bid by late summer or early fall.

“The collection system is about 70 percent designed,” Martin told the county commissioners during their weekly work session Feb. 23. “The most important and immediate thing ahead of us is our connection policy. Completion of the collection system depends on getting more user infor-mation.”

Knowing the location and number of residents ready to connect to the public sewer system will allow Mar-tin to better know where additional sewer lines need incorporated into the design or where easements need negotiated, he said.

Incentivize versus requireIn preparation for a sewer use ordi-

nance, Martin drafted a proposed con-nection policies and fees document listing the options for residents within the Carlsborg UGA.

After receiving input from the members of the Carlsborg Com-munity Advisory Council, Board of County Commissioners and Sequim Association of Realtors, Martin hopes to have an ordinance before the county commissioners by the end of the month.

By developing the proposed con-nection policies and fees, Martin was tasked with balancing incentives to encourage early connection with required connection to ensure the system is economically viable and serves its goal toward environmental and public health.

“I personally believe the incentive route is the right way to go,” county commissioner Mike Chapman told

Martin at the work session. “The standard line of government is that we’re going to require it and then everyone will fall in line and that’s just big government planning, but I believe in an incentivization that makes it economically feasible for people to do it and I think you’ll get the same result.”

Given Chapman’s concerns, Martin returned to the drawing board to revise the draft connection policies and fees.

“I think the proposal on the table now does incentivize,” he said.

Draft connection policies, feesTo connect to the sewer system costs

$8,000, but drops to $500 for those that apply for connection within two years of the operational date of the system, according to the draft connec-tion policies and fees.

Additionally, those that apply before the collection system is constructed and are within 200 feet of the sewer main, county officials will install the sewer lateral needed from the sewer main to the property line at no cost to the property owner.

Although property owners within 200 feet of a main sewer line shall be required to connect within one year of change of ownership, connection is otherwise not required within a specific time period unless a septic system fails.

Once the Carlsborg sewer system is operational, no new septic systems are permitted, however Martin included hardship exceptions for both septic system use and connection require-ments.

Following the approval of a sewer use ordinance, Martin and his staff intend to mail connection applica-tion packages to residents within the Carlsborg UGA, Martin said.

RED-LAIRD

by PATRICIA MORRISON COATESequim Gazette

Amber Klienhans, owner/adminis-trator of Faith by Choice Home Care in Sequim, makes one thing clear almost immediately: “If my employees are not supported, my clients are not supported.

“If your caregivers aren’t treated right, they’re not going to be able to provide good care. It’s a full circle. In my experience, caregiver staff have not been treated well as a whole and we, as a company, are trying to change that.”

With nearly half of her life spent in the field of health care, the 34-year-old Klienhans has seen the industry as a certified nursing assistant, so-cial worker and manager of a home health care agency. Now, with her own company since June 2014, she feels empowered to provide the kind of support she believes both her clients and employees deserve.

“We do train our own caregivers in the staff classroom,” said Klienhans, who is a certified instructor through the state in the 75-hour Home Care Aide course. “The big thing is I’ll be able to train my own staff the way I know they should be trained, which makes for better caregivers — that’s for sure.”

Through its 26 employees spread over Clallam and Jef-ferson counties, the company provides services such as routine personal care, hygiene assistance, laundry, cleaning, shopping, meal planning and cook-ing, rides to doctor appointment and errands, medication reminders and 24-hour non-medical care so that its clients may remain in their homes with assistance and still maintain some of their independence.

“Sometimes clients feel like they’re losing their independence by having a caregiver so ours are trained to offer ‘a helping hand.’ They really love their

clients. When a client’s independence is taken away, there has to be a bal-ance between the company, caregiver and client,” Klienhans explained. “We try to educate clients and families be-cause they need to know their rights. The biggest thing we do is being an

advocate — se-niors get taken advantage of a lot.”

Klienhans said she strongly en-courages clients and family mem-bers to go through an agency for se-curit y reasons rather than just

pluck someone out of the want ads. Faith by Choice conducts background checks with fingerprints on all of its applicants, plus it is bonded and insured.

“You’ve got to be careful these days. A lot of seniors are taken advantage of and they don’t deserve that. They’ve earned the right to enjoy their lives to the fullest in the way they choose and not the way somebody else chooses,” Klienhans said.

Regarding the diagnoses of the agency’s clients, Klienhans said, “De-mentia is a very common one, hip and

back surgeries and strokes. We also work with Assured Hospice, Home Health at Olympic Medical Center and Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County. We all have to work together as a team to do end-of-life care as long as it doesn’t have any nursing to it.”

Klienhans said the process of procur-ing home care starts with the client, family or friend contacting Faith by Choice for a consult, generally in the client’s home. During this conversa-tion, Klienhans provides a wide scope of information about the client’s choices and level of care required, tailoring it to each individual.

“It’s all about information — even if I can’t provide the services because I’m licensed for private pay only, I will refer clients or help them get on Medicaid and other programs,” Klienhans said. “The information is out there — it’s just people don’t know where to get it.”

The company’s moniker came from two sources — the first to honor a former client named Faith and the other because, said Klienhans, “We are a Christian-founded company but we don’t push religion on anybody. I just think that’s what gives us a good foundation of love, kindness and not judging people.

“We’re pretty awesome and we will do what it takes to get the job done.”

Instilled with a sense of history by his fa-ther as a child, Garland Frankfurth went on to teach U.S. history and although he ended his formal teaching career in the Sequim School District, he has continued to learn and explore the country’s history firsthand.

Along with his wife, Cheryl, a lifelong resident of Sequim, Garland bought an RV in the late 1990s and they have since embarked on a “quest” to visit all the national parks and associated sites, including nationally designated historical, seashore, recreational, scenic and military sites – thus far, they’ve documented 368 sites.

“My overall goal is to encourage more people to visit these places,” Garland said. “Our longest trip took about seven and a half months and we traveled the perimeter of the U.S., including the Maritimes.”

Among their travels, Garland and Cheryl are continually reminded by others visiting the United States of just how much “this country has to offer,” Garland said.

Together, they’ve followed the path of Lewis and Clark and even drove portions of the historical Oregon Trail.

“We did a little bit of the Oregon Trail in an air-conditioned cab driving 5 miles per hour trying to replicate being in a covered wagon,” Cheryl said. “It wasn’t at all the same, but it’s impressive to see what those people did and the wagon ruts.”

From the journal entries Cheryl jots down and the photographs Garland takes, the cou-ple have complied numerous photo albums and have created a map dedicated to their grandchildren highlighting their routes taken and the sights seen along the way.

Having taken a few years off from traveling, both Garland and Cheryl admits they’re look-ing forward to their next adventure to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands where they hope to see six nationally recognized sites. Before heading across county, however, Cheryl and Garland shared a quick snippet of one of their travel experiences.

In Dayton, Ohio, while visiting the Wright Cycle Company – the shop where Wright brothers, Orville and Wilbur began their

bicycle business in the late 1800s, Garland and Cheryl found themselves in the midst of a deadly tornado.

“We were surrounded by tornados and I just about stroked out. It had been about 105 degrees for several days in a row and so it was just prime weather for tornados,” Cheryl said.

“He (the park ranger) said we could stay there where they had a basement we could go down into. But, before going into the basement, I thought, ‘Oh man, I probably have some of the windows open on the RV.’

I was just wearing flip-flops and shorts, but it was raining like you wouldn’t believe. The water was flooding down the streets, but it’s so warm to the touch. Once I finally got across the street and buttoned up the RV, I pulled it ahead between some concrete build-ings, hoping it would be alright.

By the time I got back down to the base-ment everyone was looking online at where the storm was and we were right in the midst of the heaviest rain,” Garland said.

“Later, after we left, we were driving down the freeway and there were caravans of public utility trucks from all different states heading down the road. A lot of people were killed and thousands of people were without power.

The tornados were amazing and so scary to me.

The funny thing was the older park ranger, who you could tell was quite concerned, seemed to think it was worse to live here because we have earthquakes.

Cheryl said, “The younger ranger we were with told me that we were lucky we weren’t in a department store or something because they would have just closed the doors and said, ‘Goodbye and get out,’ and we were just in a little RV. It was still really stormy the next day.”

Voters missed the markConcerning SARC’s failed Park & Recreation Dis-

trict’s levy (RCW 36.69) and the newly proposed public petitioned Metropolitan Park District (RCW 35.61), I believe the public failed itself by not passing the 12-cent P&R levy that would have secured SARC’s future for six years!

I have no problem with people disagreeing with me; I do have concerns of how sparingly the (Citizens for SARC’s) committee is with its campaign information when asking the public to sign their petition for a Met-ropolitan Park District.

That said, I have doubts of the intent of the Metro’s statute, its scope of power over public and private lands; the increased monetary discretion in staff and board’s pay; and its ability to set your tax remittance with 75 cents per $1,000 assessed value without virtually any recourse.

It’s paramount you consider the tentative values: the ease of validating a 50 percent vote for a Metro with its concealed excesses versus a super majority Park & Recreation levy with its given lifetime and cost of six years and 12 cents/$1,000.

There also is a second way proposed by the major-ity of SARC’s board to present a Metro and even more devious in contexts. The city and county can present the same Metro with one major difference; they may or can circumvent your vote for board members and appoint them.

Let the buyer beware! Read RCW 35.61.Jan RichardsonSequim(Richardson is a SARC board member.)

Tennis court closure clarifiedLast Wednesday, there was a comment made in the

“From the Web” section that condemned non-student users of the SHS tennis courts (Sequim Gazette, March 4, page A-12.

As a non-student user of the Sequim High School tennis courts, I feel compelled to reply to the remark that non-students are part of the problem causing their closure “due to wear.” Wear has nothing to do with the current problems that those courts are experiencing.

The problem is the excessive cracking of the surface of the lower courts. Court age, court construction, lack of maintenance and nature have all combined to cause closure of the lower courts — not wear. Worn courts can still be played upon. Cracked courts, as in the case of the lower courts, presented a different problem —safety. Without maintenance, the upper courts will be heading in the same direction. The school district had been advised for at least a decade that the courts needed funding and a planned maintenance schedule.

There was even an attempt to get the city and the school district to jointly fund the repairing of the courts. I agree with you to the extent that the SHS tennis courts are used, on an annual basis, more by the public than the school itself. It only seemed logical that the city help fund their repair.

So, who’s a non-student user of the tennis courts? The general public, the Boys & Girls Clubs (tennis

A very special homegrown pony will celebrate a remark-able milestone by turning 35 years old in early March.

Comet, the chief equine therapist at Native Horsemanship Riding Cen-ter (home of Peninsula Therapeutic Riding), has served our community’s riding enthusiasts for most of his ac-complished life.

To honor the occasion and to thank Comet for the gentle and patient lessons he has given to hundreds of children with special needs over the years, children at the Olympic Pen-insula Boys & Girls Club will throw a party for him at the Kendall Unit in Sequim at 1:30 p.m. March 13. Cake and juice will be served to party

guests. And kids of different age groups will be invited to participate in a coloring and art contest. Nash’s Organic Produce will donate car-rots for the kids to give to the little spotted guest of honor.

Long-time Sequim residents will recognize Comet as the diminu-tive but bold participant in many parades and festivals.

“He’s been with me since he was foaled in 1980,” says NHRC founder Yvette TwoRab-bits, adding, “He’s won countless show and event ribbons, has patiently taught hundreds of children of all abilities how to ride and has helped heal and comfort veterans who are suffering from loneliness, depression, brain injuries and post-traumatic stress.”

If you or your child have known Comet, you are invited to write a birthday card, “What Comet Means to Me,” for the scrapbook that she has created, a way to honor and

summer camp), the Peninsula Ten-nis Club (PTC), Sunday afternoon community tennis, senior citizen tennis, no-cost tennis instruction to school district children, no-cost cardio-tennis (during the summer), tourist and visitors, etc. The “wear” is minimal compared to the abuses that the courts receive from other sources. I won’t elaborate — you may be embarrassed by what you would learn.

If anything, senior citizens, PTC members and other non-students have even prolonged the use of the courts. We’ve performed such maintenance as repairing some of the cracks in the lower courts, con-structing benches and gear racks inside the courts, repairing holes in nets on the upper courts, power-washing the courts, replacing nets and center straps, constructing a storage shed, fixing holes in fences and gates, weeding, repairing squeegees, removing water from the courts to enhance drying, removing debris from the courts, installing center strap anchors, etc., etc., etc. What, pray tell, has anyone else done? Answer: Not much.

New courts? For nearly 20 years now, there have been frequent at-tempts to convince the city to con-struct public courts in Sequim. It’s only a matter of time that the school courts will be closed to the public — at least, during school class hours. Due to security concerns and the inability to lock down the campus, public access to the courts is a con-cern. And the defeat of the two bond issues set the resolution of that problem back several more years.

Within the younger generation, tennis is significantly growing in this area. It is not uncommon now to see potential players turned away from the courts due to usage. New tennis programs are putting the squeeze on current court avail-ability.

So, we must move on. We haven’t abandoned the SHS courts and their plight. We tried to fix it. And, we’re still trying. We’ve offered solu-tions and assistance. There’s just so much that we can do.

The bottom line here is tennis has outgrown the community’s current ability to accommodate.

Sequim Gazette147 W. Washington St.,

Sequim, WA 98382

If you had a child at the Univer-sity of Washington at the begin-ning of the Great Reces-sion, you may have been set back by the tuition. In the 2008-2009 academic year it was $7,254 (in today’s dollars), almost one-fifth of a full time job paid at the median wage.

You may have thought that was bad, but as rev-enue for the state has imploded and failed to recover since then, the state has disinvested from public higher edu-cation. How was the difference made up? Through increased tuition. That’s why tuition is now $12,393 this year — a $5,000 increase since 2008. It also takes a bigger bite out of a smaller pay check, as median wages have fallen during this time by almost $1 an hour.

So as a result, tuition for the University of Washington now takes up almost one-third of the typical wage earner’s annual sal-ary. That student and her family are left on their own. Their in-

come is too high to qualify for any significant tuition assistance,

and besides, there is a waiting list to get the little assistance there is.

Now what?What can we do?

St ate Sen s . John Braun, R-Centralia, and Barbara Bailey, R-Oak Harbor, have an idea. They introduced a bill to cut tuition at our four-year colleges. Now, their bill has

loopholes for mandatory fees like “student activity fees.” But it goes in the right direction! They pro-pose tying tuition to a percentage of the state’s average wage. The average wage is now $52,635 a year. (That may not make sense to you, but remember, this is not the typical wage of a middle class worker — this average is thrown off by the million dollar pay pack-ages of the top 1 percent.)

Under their proposal, Univer-sity of Washington and WSU tuition could be no more than 14 percent of the average wage

— that is, $7,369. For the re-gional universities, like Western Washington University, tuition could not exceed 10 percent of the average wage. So instead of being almost $9,000, tuition at Western would fall to $5,264.

CC helpBraun and Bailey’s bill could

do better for students at com-munity colleges in our state. They propose reducing current tuition and fees of $4,000 by just $59. These community col-lege students make up about four-fifths of the students in our public higher education system. They are typically lower income part-time workers trying to go to college, earn a living, and keep their family together. They deserve a break, too.

But let’s take this bill and ask: What’s the total cost? About $226 million. Look around the bill, turn over its pages, look in the margins and you won’t find any funding source. Without funding, these tuition cuts are completely hypothetical. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

What could the funding source

be? Our tax code is full of holes for privileged corporations.

One loophole enables compa-nies to invest (or gamble) their money in financial stocks on Wall Street and not pay any taxes on the profits that they gain. That’s a perverse loophole to start with because it encourages companies to NOT invest in plants and equip-ment in our state.

Why? Because the revenue they get from sales of products in Washington will be taxed, while anything they make from the money they give Chase Bank or Bank of America or Citicorp to invest is tax-free. This one loophole costs our state about $342 million.

It’s that simple. Close this tax loophole — one that encourages companies to take our money and run — and the Legislature could responsibly and permanently re-duce tuition at our public colleges and universities.

to Me,” for the scrapbook that she has cre-ated, a way to honor and forever remember this special pony who has given so much to our community’s youth for more than three decades.

On Comet’s wish list for birthday gifts are donations of hay, senior feed, horse treats, beet pulp, for him and his fellow equine therapists and cash to help sponsor riders with special needs. Please bring your gifts by appointment to NHRC, at 396 Taylor Cutoff Road.

Programs for various age groups and for veterans will start in May.

Established as a 501(c)3 nonprofit in 2006, NHRC provides safe, professionally certified therapeutic riding lessons to children and adults with special needs.

It is the only such program on the entire Olympic Peninsula with instructors who are certified therapeutic riding instructors through the Professional Association for Therapeutic Horsemanship (PATH) Inter-national. PATH sets and monitors rigorous program, safety and efficacy standards for lessons, quality of instruction, equipment,

horses and arenas.With Comet and 12 of his equine buddies

and several devoted volunteers, NHRC runs programs for about 200 people May through September. They could expand year-round if a donor or company would fulfill their wish for a covered arena.

There are hundreds of children, adults, families and veterans in our community who could benefit from the healing power of rid-ing and even simply by interacting with these magnificent animals. My own non-verbal son has participated.

Indeed, therapeutic riding is gaining in popularity as a legitimate treatment mo-dality for people with conditions including autism, cerebral palsy, traumatic brain in-juries, speech impairments, paralysis, spinal curvature, multiple sclerosis and others. The diagonal gait of the horse mimics a human’s and provides valuable input to the rider’s brain and muscles, that can help improve mobility, sensory integration, posture, core strength and even talking and social skills.

Furthermore, veterans with post-traumat-ic stress disorder and at-risk youth also are known to benefit mentally and emotionally, by forming bonds with these large, powerful, yet gentle and non-judgmental creatures, by working on their trust, non-verbal commu-

nication and benevolent leadership skills; all are essential behaviors to earning equines’ respect and partnership.

Oftentimes, a person who has difficulty expressing their fears to family, friends, coun-selors, clergy or strangers in group sessions will open up in the quiet, gentle presence of a horse. “The horse is the real therapist,” says TwoRabbits.

A study of veterans in a therapeutic riding program near Fort Hood, Texas, for example, showed that the activity was much more effec-tive at treating clinical depression and PTSD than traditional talk therapy and medication. (Lanning, B.)

NHRC currently provides services for vet-erans through Peninsula Behavioral Health. The fee for six weekly lessons is $200. Scholar-ships or DSHS respite funds may be available for qualified, low-income participants. Check with your caseworker.

For more information about horses’ natural healing powers, to book lessons for your child or group (any age), to volunteer, to donate funds to help underwrite rider scholarships, or to sponsor Comet or one of his buddies, contact NHRC at www.nativehorserc.weebly.com or 582-0907.

by ELAINE FREDRICKSONFor the Sequim Gazette

A hitchhiking trip through Western Europe in 1967 was the beginning of a lifetime passion for adventure travel and wanderlust, still not quenched.

From 1967-2001 our focus was raising a family, careers and travel within the U.S. The Grand Canyon, Tetons, Yellowstone and Glacier were some of our favorite

destinations. After retirement in 2001, travel adventures began in earnest with hiking trips to Chile, Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, Australia, New Zealand, France, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Nepal, Tanzania, Madagascar, Iceland, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia.

We travel for many reasons. Discovering the natural beauty of our world, while challenging our bodies to “work for it” drives us to continue to seek such adventures as

long as we can. While hitchhiking through Eu-

rope, we experienced the fun and sense of adventure that comes with traveling independently, meeting local people, struggling to com-municate and not knowing for sure where we might be sleeping that night. We continue to keep these as our themes, traveling in ways that will challenge us physically and al-low us to meet people from all over the world.

Iceland is an adventure traveler’s dream. It is a land of wild and var-ied extremes, exemplified each day on the five-day Landmannalauger

trek. The first day, we hiked among boiling turquoise thermal pools which provided hot water and heat in the huts where we cooked and slept. Fording icy rivers was a daily event and always proved tense and exhilarating no matter how many times we did it.

Hiking through lava, Iceland’s defining feature, was both beauti-ful and challenging. The landscape changed from crumbling pink pastel, to shiny, sharp obsidian to huge basalt boulders, which were the most challenging to negotiate.

By afternoon we were happy to catch our first glimpse of the “hut,”

our destination for that day. Seeing who and how many people we would share a room with that evening is all part of the hut hiking. Throughout it all, the memories we bring home to our family and friends are of the interesting people we meet.

Travel has broadened our world view and helped us un-

derstand that people are more alike than they are different in spite of political, social and cultural differ-ences. And we never lose the thrill and memories of the most amazing stories we hear around tables in mountain huts!

A Land of Extremes

A successful gar-den is all about soil. Soil provides the network to deliver air, water and nutri-ents to your plants.

So what is going on in garden soil?

Technically, soil is the unconsoli-dated mineral and organic matter in the upper layer of the earth’s crust. Weathering breaks rock down into mineral components. As plants and animals die and are decayed by fun-gi and bacteria, they are converted into humus, a carbon-rich organic material. Humus consists of long, hard-to-break chains of carbon molecules with large surface areas.

These surface ar-eas carry electrical charges that attract and hold mineral particles. The mo-lecular structure of humus resembles a sponge with large

and small spaces for soil microbes. Water, air and nutrients are trans-ported to plant roots through this network of large and small pores.

Soil structure impacts soil pro-ductivity. Large pores (macropores) determine a soil’s permeability, the rate at which water moves through soil, and aeration, the capability to

Editor’s note: This is the third in a monthly series about the Dungeness Na-tional Wildlife Refuge, past and present. — MD

While the Dungeness Na-tional Wildlife Refuge is ad-ministered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, it has come together like a jigsaw puzzle with pieces contributed by several other agencies and entities.

Those have included the Jamestown S’Klallam Tribe,

U.S. Lighthouse Service and U.S. Coast Guard, the Wash-ington State Department of Natural Resources, Wash-ington State Parks, Clallam County and local private property owners. Here is how it all came together.

To assemble a jigsaw puzzle, you first need a table. That was contributed by the First Peoples, ancestors of the Coast Salish people and the James-town S’Klallam Tribe. They arrived 10,000 years ago after the last ice age. S’Klallam call the spit “Tsi-tsa-kwick” and

provide oxygen. Root and earthworm channels help to create these large pores. Because of gravity, irrigation water and rainwater infiltrate the soil and excess water drains through it via macropores.

Small pores (micropores), only a frac-tion of a millimeter in diameter, help soil retain water, resisting the effect of gravity. Most of the water in these micropores is available to plant roots.

The porosity (the amount of open space) of soil is affected by texture, de-gree of compaction and structure of the soil. Texture is determined by the ratio of sand, silt and clay in soil. Sand is the coarsest particle, silt is intermediate and clay is the smallest/flattest.

Pores between sand particles tend to be the macropores and pores between silt and clay particles tend to be mi-cropores. Sandy soil has rapid water infiltration and water loss, has limited water-holding capacity and warms up earlier in the spring.

Silt and clay soils have high water holding capacity, reduced permeabil-ity and warm up later in the spring. Sand, silt, clay and organic matter bind together to form soil aggregates that

provide structure to soil.Soil structure can be damaged by

compaction, over-tilling and tilling soil when it is too wet. Compaction squeezes macropores into micro-pores, creating horizontal aggregates that resist the transfer of water, nu-trients and air. Severe compaction in the upper two feet of soil frequently is caused by heavy equipment during site construction and can damage or destroy trees. The collapse of soil structure results in less life in the soil and reduced soil fertility.

Good soil structure is key to good growing conditions. Good structure ensures adequate drainage as well as adequate plant-available capillary water and air circulation to sustain biological activity. In good soil there

is space for soil biology to thrive. Healthy soil is full of life. In addi-

tion to insects, earthworms and plant roots, soil has a diverse population of microorganisms. One-quarter teaspoon of topsoil can contain a billion microorganisms. When soil organisms break down plant ma-terials and other organisms, then energy, nutrients and carbon dioxide are released, creating soil organic matter. Organic matter increases the diversity and number of beneficial organisms in soil.

the bay “Tses-kut.” When they signed the

Point-No-Point Treaty of Jan. 26, 1855, they ceded their rights to most of their land, but retained hunting and fishing rights in all the ac-customed places, including Dungeness Bay. Those rights still hold today.

The first federal puzzle piece was set down in 1850 when the U.S. Lighthouse Service included Dunge-ness Spit on its short list of hazardous places needing a lighthouse.

On Oct. 1, 1851, the service reserved 190 acres on the spit. Funds were appropriated in 1854, but tense relations between the whites and Na-tives in Washington Territory delayed construction until 1857. On Dec. 14, 1857, the lamp was lit on the 100-foot tall tower.

President Woodrow Wil-son added the second federal piece by signing Executive Order 2128 on Jan. 20, 1915, establishing “a refuge, pre-serve and breeding ground for native birds” and naming it Dungeness Spit Reserva-tion. This piece overlaid the lighthouse station and al-lowed for the lighthouse and any future possible military uses of the spit. In 1940, a Presidential Proclama-tion changed the name to “Dungeness National Wild-life Refuge.”

Piece No. 3 was joined to the puzzle temporarily from 1940-1955 when the U.S. Navy had complete authority over the spit as a military reservation. They returned it to the Fish and Wildlife Service in 1955. Meanwhile, on May 29, 1943, Washington added piece No. 4 by granting to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service a permanent ease-ment to 321 acres of second-class tidelands within the northern portion of Dunge-ness Bay “for the purpose of establishing on these lands a wildlife refuge.” That pro-tects the eelgrass beds that

are the heart of the refuge.Washington State Parks

had a small picnic park at the tip of Graveyard Spit during the 1960s, but closed it in the 1970s.

Even then the refuge still was not attached to the mainland. Over time various private lands were purchased to remedy that and to complete the puzzle. On Dec. 17, 1970, the refuge purchased from Mr. and Mrs. Haugland 45 acres consist-ing of the forested section and bluffs to the west of the base of the spit.

On March 23, 1972, it pur-chased 29 acres from Walter B. Mellus. These two sales connected the refuge to the mainland for the first time.

The purchases also in-cluded a road right-of-way that allowed the service to maintain vehicle access to the spit. On March 6, 1973, Cecil L. Dawley donated 129 acres of land on Sequim Bay straddling U.S. Highway 101, including both waterfront and upland forest.

In 1982, the U.S. Coast Guard ceded 157.5 acres of the spit to the refuge.

The current refuge admin-istrative site of 5.04 acres was purchased from Mr. and Mrs. Krier on Nov. 20, 1996. This purchase also provided a buf-fer for the refuge.

Finally, The Nature Con-servancy of Washington assisted the service in the purchase of the Weinstein Tract, consisting of 4.56 acres of coastal forest, on May 19, 1999.

This tract protected the viewshed to the east from the observation platforms along the main trail.

The refuge leases the pub-lic restrooms and parking lot near the entrance from Clallam County.

With 772.52 acres, the ref-uge puzzle is now complete. And no extra pieces left over!

Now it is our generation’s responsibility to protect the refuge and hand it on intact to the next generation.

Soil organismsGardening practices including tillage, the use of fertilizers, manures, pesticides and crop

rotation affect the diversity and population of soil organisms. Soil moisture, temperature and organic content affect the activity of soil organisms. Beneficial activities of some soil organisms:

Mycorrhizae fungi infect plant roots increasing the uptake of nutrients from the soil.Rhizobia bacteria convert atmospheric nitrogen into plant-available nitrogen.Earthworms mix large volumes of soil and create macropore channels. Voles and moles feed on insects and earthworms, however voles and moles also can be

non-beneficial pests.

Erma and Mike Kuenzli of Naki’i play traditional Hawaiian music at noon Tuesday, March 17, at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church. Submitted photo

Sequim Gazette staff

Some of the joyful sounds of Hawaii come to St. Luke’s Episcopal Church’s Music Live with Lunch next week.

Mike and Erma Kuenzli of Naki’i play at noon Tuesday, March 17, traditional Hawaiian language and original songs celebrating the state’s culture.

For the Sequim concert they’ll play eight tunes including original “The Aloha Spirit Song,” “Blue Hawai’i,” “Snows of Maunakea,” “E Hihiwai” (from Moloka’i) and more.

The couple performs at least 100 days a year singing and playing songs on ukulele and guitar. They’ll appear across the peninsula this year at festivals and concert halls with a heavy emphasis on senior care facilities. They continue to share stages with their “hula family” of about 17 years, “Na Hula O Kauhale No Nahele Kai” of the Port Ludlow to Bremerton area.

Erma was born and raised in the Nanakuli Hawaiian Homesteads and the couple met in late 1965. They moved to Sequim in 1994 and they’ll celebrate their 49th wedding anniversary this year.

Music Live with Lunch was founded 25 years ago at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church, 525 N. Fifth Ave., by Lou and Bill Yandell as a musical outreach program to the community. Concerts are held at noon on the third Tuesday of the month through May except for December in the church sanctuary. A hot lunch fol-lows the show in the Parish Hall. This month’s meal, the traditional New England corned beef is brined on site preservative free. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased in advance or at the door. The church office is open 9 a.m.-noon Monday-Thursday. Call 683-4862 with questions.

After four consecutive trips to the state tourna-ment, the expectations remain high for the Lady Wolves fastpitch squad.

“I expect to bring home some hardware this year,” Sequim manager Mike McFarlen said.

He admits to being disappointed in the Wolves’ 2014 effort where they went 1-2 at the state

championships on May 30 in Selah. They lost in the opening round to Capital 4-1, be-fore rebounding with a late-inning-comeback 6-5 win against Ellens-burg in the conso-lation bracket.

But the hard-hitting Wolves couldn’t contend in a rematch of the West Central District Champi-onship with Fife which won 10-1 in the evening game.

Shortstop Mary Lu Clift said look-

ing forward, the hardest thing for the Wolves to do now is stay on top.

“We’ve worked hard to stay there,” she said. “(My expectation) is to go all the way. Everyone on the team has incredible ability and even though it’s early, we feel the team can do it.”

Sequim earned a co-league title with rival Port Angeles, which McFarlen anticipates as another tough opponent this year.

“I think it’ll come down to P.A. and us again,” he said. “They are young but have good athletes and are well coached.”

Clift said one of the biggest differences between this year’s team and others is that the younger players have embraced the team’s hard work ethic particularly in the offseason.

“Everyone worked harder because we’re expecting more,” she said.

Sequim moves forward without its No. 1 pitcher Makalya Bentz who earned Olympic League MVP last year as a senior going 15-2 with a 0.85 earned-run-average and 102 strikeouts.

McFarlen said it’s his first year without a No. 1 pitcher.

“It’s rare for a team to not have a girl you throw against better teams,” he said. “Luckily, we have four non-league games to test the water.”

Olivia Kirsch, McKenzie Bentz, Allysen Montelius and Chloie Sparks will see time as starting pitchers for the Wolves, he said.

Also graduated are all-league first teamers Alexas Besand (1B) and second-teamer Melissa Lewis (OF)

Sequim adult soccer league starts March 18

The Wapiti Archery Club hosts the “Animal Fun Shoot,” set for March 14-15 at the club’s facility at 374 E. Arnette Road, Port Angeles.

The Wapiti Archery Club is the only indoor/outdoor archery range on the North Olympic Peninsula. Shoot participants will have the chance to shoot at 35 3-D targets. All skill levels are invited.

Registration begins each day at 7 a.m. Breakfast and lunch will be available.

Cost is $20 per adult for two days ($12 for single day), $10 for youths of ages 14-17 ($8 for one day) and $5 for cubs ($4 for one day); those 5 and younger are free.

For more information, see the club’s website at www.wapitibowmen.com.

Adult soccer registration is now open for the Sequim adult coed spring soccer league.

Sequim FC is starting its eighth season and offers year-round, eight-on-eight soccer matches for ages 16 and older.

The league has averaged about 10 teams per season and welcomes new teams or individuals to sign up; players without teams will be placed on a team.

The upcoming spring season features two divisions: a Gold divi-sion for players who want highly competitive play, and a Silver league. The Silver league is designed to be a less competitive, co-ed recreational league and is suggested for players that are older (40 plus), or for players newer to the game or looking for more recreational-style game.

A women’s-only division is planned for the summer, likely combined with the Port Angeles adult league.

There will be a Champions Cup Trophy to go to the winning team’s sponsor.

The first game is Wednesday, March 18. For more information or to sign up, go to tinyurl.com/kvysmxg.

Twenty-one members of the Klahhane Gymnastics Teams com-peted at the Battle in Bellevue at the Meydebauer Center in Bellevue on Feb. 21-22.

In the Xcel Silver Division, Maizie Tucker brought home silver medals in balance beam (9.325 points), floor exercise (8.60) and all-around scoring (35.275) in the Senior A age group. Summer Jules-Stranberg placed second on balance beam

(9.3) in the Senior B age group, with Julieanne Jacobs placing fourth on floor exercise (8.65).

Also competing in the Silver Division were Sequim’s Ellie Turner, Chelsie Mackey and Amber Dietzman.

In the Gold Division, Aiesha Mathis took fourth place on vault (9.0) in Junior C competition and Cassidy Tamburro took a pair of fourth-place finishes on balance

beam (8.60) and floor exercise (9.3) in the Senior B age group.

Sequim’s Kianna Miller placed fourth on vault (8.8) and uneven bars (8.7) in the Platinum Division Junior B age group with Sequim’s Danica Miller also taking a fourth-place vault award (9.1) in the Senior A age group.

In the Junior Olympic Level 4 Competition in the Junior B age group, Susannah Sharp of Sequim

was fifth in Junior B competition with an all-around score of 34.05 and two individual event fifth places on vault (8.6) and uneven bars (8.8). Sequim’s Jolene Vaara placed third on vault (8.7) and sixth all-around (33.65). In the Junior D age group, Sequim’s Kori Miller placed second on vault (8.85) and sixth in all-around scoring (34.05), followed by Morgan Mat-tix who was fourth on vault (8.6)

and seventh All-Around (33.30). Sequim’s Lainy Vig placed third on uneven bars (8.775) in the Senior A age group.

Gracie Sharp of Sequim was sixth on balance beam (8.85) and seventh on vault (8.4) in the Level 6 Junior B age group. Anne Edwards, Zoe Smithson and Sequim’s Emma Sharp also performed well against strong competition, Klahhane coaches said.

Klahhane gymnasts compete next in the Rainier Cup in Sea-Tac from March 14-15.

With more hitting, deeper pitching and an athletic outfield, Sequim’s baseball coach-es and players feel good about their chances this spring.

“I think we’re capable of going as far as any Sequim team has ever has,” said head coach Dave Ditlefsen.

“We have some pieces in place to go deep.”

A majority of the Wolves return this season including all-league sec-ond teamer Evan Hurn, who batted .359, honor-able mention Nigel Chris-tian and pitcher Tanner Rhodefer.

Rhodefer was second

on the team with a 2.23 ERA and held oppos-ing batters to a team-best .145 average while Christian had three wins with a 3.00 ERA and 33 strikeouts.

The Wolves went 7-2 in league play before losing four in a row last year, but they won their final three games to make districts where they lost to Fife 5-0, recovered to win 4-2 against Olympic but were knocked out by Klahowya 4-2.

“Even in the games we lost at districts we were very competitive,” Ditlef-sen said. “If anything, we pitched well, but our bats went a little cold and kids pressed a little. (This year), we’re hoping in that type of situation they stay focused.”

Graduated seniors Nick Johnston and Brett Wright led the Wolves in hitting and pitching and earned all-league first

Sequim squad eyeing 5th straight state tourney berth

Mary Lu Clift throws out a run-ner at a recent practice. She said this year, everyone has worked harder because they expect more.

SEQUIM GAZETTEB-6 • March 11, 2015 SEQUIM GAZETTE

This year, the Wolves fol-low a fourth-place Olympic League finish last year, send-ing two doubles teams to districts.

Junior Karen Chan re-turns after pairing with graduated senior Melanie Guan to earn a state alter-nate spot last year. Senior Hannah Gauthun returns too after earning a doubles state berth in 2013 with graduated senior Anna Pro-rok. They went 0-2.

Gauthun and Cheyenne

Sokkappa are the Wolves’ only seniors after losing nine last year to graduation.

Wagner said five varsity players return while 11 play-ers are taking the court for the first time on the team.

Chan and Gauthun are set for the No. 1 doubles team while Sokkappa takes the No. 1 singles spot after play-ing at No. 2 or No. 3, depend-ing on match-ups last year.

Sok k appa , who ha s played tennis all four years of high school but didn’t

play before then, said it’s a little intimidating being the No. 1 singles play.

“I’ve improved a lot,” she said,” and I’m hoping to make districts.”

Since starting, Sokkappa said she’s worked hardest on her serves.

“They are my strong point,” she said. “It carries me through my matches.”

Wagner said this year is a rebuilding a year for the team and the remainder of varsity spots will change.

team honors. Wright hit .443, and Johnston led Sequim with four wins, a 2.20 earned-run-average and 63 strikeouts.

Rhodefer, who will replace John-ston at as the No. 1 pitcher, said the team is overall stronger this year despite Johnston and Wright graduating.

“We had a couple of guys carry us but the hitters all worked hard in the offseason so we should be a better hitting team,” he said.

Rhodefer said there are at least a handful of players with power.

“With all our guys from one-nine (in the batting order), I feel comfort-able with any of them with the game on the line,” he said.

Ditlefsen agrees. “We have nine or 10 guys with

legitimate varsity experience back,” Ditlefsen said. “We knew we were going to be very young last year but all of our sophomores and juniors

saw some growth. Nick (Johnston) was our No. 1 pitcher but our No. 2, 3 and 4 are all back. I think we have three or four No. 1-type kids.”

The Wolves starting pitchers will be Rhodefer, Christian, James Grubb

and Daniel Harker, Ditlefsen said. Offensively, Ditlefsen said the

Wolves have put a lot of time and ef-fort into playing baseball year-round.

“I’m expecting big things from Nigel Christian. He just keeps get-ting better each year,” he said.

“Evan Hurn has got a great left-handed swing and Daniel Harker and James Grubb are both returning starters who keep getting better.”

Harker said he began hitting in the batting cages in January and his hope is to get more runs batted in while hitting in the middle of the order.

His goals for the team are to win the Olympic League, go far in dis-tricts and earn a spot at state.

“We know our league is very chal-lenging top to bottom,” Ditlefsen said.

“We know we have to keep getting better everyday to compete for the league title.”

Sequim High School’s girls tennis team plans to make the best of cramped conditions.

After Sequim School Dis-trict officials closed two tennis courts due to unsafe conditions at the beginning of the school year, some feared the girls team would need to make cuts for the first time in its history due to less court space.

“I’m not going to do it,” head coach Justine Wagner said. “I just can’t. The great thing (about tennis) is that it’s a lifetime sport. I don’t want to take that away from anyone.”

However, with 25 girls on the team, Wagner said she’s still figuring out the logistics for practices.

In the fall, Wagner had to make adjustments for the boys team and said for the girls they might have to travel to an opponent’s home courts twice instead of host-ing matches.

If and when Sequim hosts matches depends on how many girls are on the oppos-ing team, she said.

At practices, girls are split among the three courts by varsity, junior varsity and live game simulation.

“It stinks,” Wagner said. “Look at how many girls are just standing at times. Only 12 of 25 can go at any time.”

She’s not expecting to win the league title, she said, since some teams like North Kitsap are extremely deep and gained even more expe-rienced players.

“We have really nice girls who are very coachable, fun, and are a good group of people who will wear our school colors well,” she said.

Sokkappa said for those newcomers who want to do well, she said it all depends on how far they want to go.

“Stay after practice and work some more,” she said. “It could become a lifetime hobby. (For me) It’s definitely fun and I’ll consider doing intramurals in college.”

The girls tentatively open their season at home against the Olympic Trojans on March 16.

Beuke posted the top time in the preliminaries with a 7:51.39 time, edging Knowles (7:52.31) by less than a second. Beuke topped a field of 16 competitors from clubs including Victoria City Rowing Club, St. Michael’s University School, Maple Bay Rowing Club and Fort Langley Rowing Club — all from Canada.

To have your child ready for life, you need to begin in his earliest years. The skills your child learns in the first three years of life set the stage for future learning and success-ful adult lives. Research is showing that adults who have certain skills can find and keep jobs and earn their way out of poverty. Adolescents who have certain skills can make better decisions about their behaviors. Children with certain skills will be able to follow directions and focus, take turns and even regulate youthful impulses in preschool and school.

Let’s just look at the skills needed by children and how we can help them. When I say “we,” I mean that literally. Ac-tive, involved, loving parents are a critical beginning to gain these skills. One mom told me a long time ago that she didn’t realize she was so important. She is. She is a key to the child gaining the skills to learn. Even grandparents, neighbors and older siblings play a great part in this learning. Even people who don’t have much contact with young children have a major role in how they support early learning and public schools.

So how does this learning take place? It begins at the beginning.

A baby’s brain develops as he interacts with his primary caregivers (usually parents). It begins when the child cries and the parent responds with care and concern. It begins when the child learns to depend on getting a response

The beginning of learning

and an appropriate one. When that doesn’t happen and the response from the parents is unreliable, inap-propriate or just not there, the brain is disrupted and later learning and behavior and even health may be negatively impacted (“The Science of Neglect: The Per-sistent Absence of Responsive Care Disrupts the Developing Brain,” 2012).

This positive response and interaction between children and their caregivers contin-ues as they become toddlers and into the preschool years. Now, greater numbers of out-siders participate in being re-sponsive to the young child. But all of these professionals and teachers help build the child’s positive brain devel-opment through reciprocal, responsive relationships. This means responding to the child in a positive way.

So what does this all mean? This is just the beginning of helping to shape the child’s

brain but it is critical. Parents and other caregivers need to understand their importance or they can undermine the child’s early progress. Stress and trauma put the child at risk. Poverty can be a major factor. The depression of the mother during pregnancy and immediately after can hinder the child’s develop-ment.

Other issues put huge stresses on a child. These are issues like abuse and/or ne-glect, adult substance abuse, domestic violence, a death or a primary caregiver going to jail. Each of these disrupt the child’s brain development and derail the learning that should be happening. When these kinds of experiences happen, they lead to health and mental health problems over a person‘s lifetime. These experiences cause delays in the child’s develop-ment. The more negative the experiences, the greater the risk the child will have these delays.

But what does this have to do with the rest of us? We are all involved with one another. It happens as we reach out to help the unfortunate in our society. The more people who have problems, the more help that is expected from all of us. We all have a stake in all children’s health. We all

are impacted when children aren’t healthy or when they are unable to find jobs as they mature. When a child is not healthy because of what care-givers have not provided him, it really isn’t his fault. We have caused the bad outcome. Now we need to be involved in fixing it. It is totally clear that we will save effort, money and community resources if we can prevent problems rather than to fix them.

In many ways, to fix prob-lems early or to prevent prob-lems is the more acceptable outcome. And most people are willing to help children and less willing to help them as they grow older. Reaching out to help parents under-stand their importance and their impact on the child they are raising may enable us to make great positive differ-ence for our children.

What does all this mean? Love, pay attention and treat your baby right. These first years are incredibly impor-tant.

HAC L K KTAL2+2=4 6-3=3 Be forewarned, what follows is pure bias. Objectivity will have no place at this table. I’m here to celebrate the most exhilarating theatrical experience I have had. Bar none.

“The Little Mermaid (Jr.),” a production staged by the Sequim Middle School Choral Department, opened with t he sho w ’s overture ac-companying cast credits displayed on a back projec-tion screen. This allowed the audience to “cheer the players onto the field” and set a light tone for the evening.

The magic began with the unveil-ing of principle characters.

Maddy Dietzman — a sixth grader and a “wee slip of a thing,” as my Scottish granny would say — stepped to center stage as Ariel and released a voice that filled the theater, a voice that carried that pitch-perfect strength for the next two hours.

Thomas Hughes, a mature and forceful voice as Prince Eric, com-fortably summoned a mature and forceful voice, comfortably mov-

Helen Haller launched the Cou-gar Writers Conference by partner-ing with high school students to celebrate reading. Our classes were flooded with students eager to spend 30 minutes reading together. It was a most impressive sight! Thanks to the high school students for such a successful and enriching experience!

The rest of the week will be packed with more reading and writ-ing experiences. Highlights of the week will include an assembly with author Suzanne Selfors, a visit to the high school to watch Book-It Repertory Theatre present “Alice in Wonderland” and unique grade level writing sessions. The week will culminate with an all-school sharing session where kindergarten through fifth grade learning groups will share their favorite piece of writing from the enriching week of experiences.

from Cuba to the Gulf of Mexico, and to Mexico and Texas. Then I walked 1,200 miles. It took me eight years to get that far on foot. I liked adventure since I was little. I wanted to find new land.” Kyle Gagner

“I am Hernando de Soto, a Span-ish explorer. I came from Spain and I explored Cuba and what is now known as Florida. I was looking for gold and glory. I wanted to find gold for Queen Isabella!” Andy Benitez

“I am Vasco Nuñez de Balboa. I was the first Spanish explorer to see the Pacific Ocean. I’m from Spain and I explored the northwest part of South America. I sailed for glory and gold.” Kobe Applegate

“I am Jacques Cartier. Nice to meet you. I am from France and in France born in St. Malo, Brittany. The purpose of my three voyages was to look for the quicker North-west Passage to Asia and also to look for gold, gold and glory.” Robert Streck

“I am John Cabot. I sailed in the 1400s. I’m from Italy and sailed to the East Coast of Canada, looking for gold and glory. I mistook it for Asia.” Kieran Van Selus

SEQUIM HIGH SCHOOLSequim High School Leadership

students worked to pair up high school classes with elementary classes to come together and enjoy reading books from 9:20-9:50 a.m. on Monday, March 2, in honor of

Dr. Seuss Day. This year was par-ticularly exciting because there were 24 high school classes, bring-ing nearly 500 high school students to read with Haller students and providing many one-on-one read-ing experiences.

A large helping of Green Eggs & Ham goes to Sequim High School teacher Jennifer Van De Wege and Student Leadership coordinator Quintan Johnson for putting the event together!

SHS principal Shawn Langston would like to extend congratula-tions to Emily Carter for being

officially recognized as a finalist in the National Merit Schol-arship Corporation. She has received this extraordinary honor when she was named a semifinalist in the fall of 2014 with ap-

proximately 16,000 other students, but now has moved on to being recognized with nearly 8,000 final-ists! “It’s a huge honor and we’re all very proud of Emily’s work,” Langston said.

These students each received $100 for completing Microsoft Expert Certification: Thomas Arnesen, Marshall Conway, Joshua Gaylord, Jensen Heike, Lillian Oden, Reynaldo Perez and Mer-cedes Woods. Grant Pierson re-ceived $200 for Microsoft Master

Certification. Board president Beverly Horan presented each with a check on Feb. 26. Mark Sabo is their computer science teacher.

Many of our students have en-tered the 2015 Sequim Arts Student Art Show to be held March 4-29. Awards were presented March 7.

SHS art teacher Jaye Hall says, “The students have done some amazingly beautiful work, includ-ing pen and ink drawings, colored pencil, ceramics and glass fusing. Several students submitted two pieces of artwork and many of the drawings were judged by the Audubon Society if they are bird-themed. Please come by the show sometime this month and support our student artists.

“They’re very talented and have done some beautiful work! I would like to acknowledge Sequim Arts for donating a beautiful Logan mat cutter to the high school.

“In previous years, we were using a 25-year-old cutter and the bevel and straight edges of the mats were lacking in quality. This year the cutting was more streamlined and the artwork looked better for the show.”

There will be SAT testing held at 7:45 a.m. Saturday, March 14, in the cafeteria.

The Band Boosters will have a meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 17, in the board room.

CARTER

SEQUIM GAZETTE SEQUIM GAZETTE March 11, 2015 • B-9

Be forewarned, what follows is pure bias. Objectivity will have no place at this table. I’m here to celebrate the most exhilarating theatrical experience I have had. Bar none.

“The Little Mermaid Jr.,” a production staged by the Sequim Middle School Choral Department, opened with t he sho w ’s overture ac-companying cast credits displayed on a back projec-tion screen. This allowed the audience to “cheer the players onto the field” and set a light tone for the evening.

The magic began with the unveil-ing of principal characters.

Maddy Dietzman — a sixth- grader and a “wee slip of a thing,” as my Scottish granny would say — stepped to center stage as Ariel and released a voice that filled the theater, a voice that carried that pitch-perfect strength for the next two hours.

Thomas Hughes, a mature and forceful voice as Prince Eric, com-fortably summoned a mature and forceful voice, comfortably mov-

ing over the full emotional range required of a romantic lead.

Tommy Hall’s Sebastian cap-tured the vigor required in his role while making the most of his ex-traordinary costume — absolutely the most expressive use of claws I have seen.

Zachary Ballantyne and Tanner Robins — Flounder and Scuttle — were both confident within their characters and blended sharp comic timing into their singing.

Damon Little as Grimsby, An-thony Cortani as Chef Louis and Payton Storm’s Carlotta, Melissa Porter and Ryan Porter as Flotsam and Jetsam all took on their roles with the comic relish of junior Sat-urday Night Live players.

Damien Cundiff’s sage King Tri-ton and Devin Anderson’s sprightly Pilot captured their characters in both movement and voice in their pivotal scenes.

When Brittany Rives took the stage as the deliciously evil Ursula, there wasn’t an eye in the house that wasn’t riveted on her. She took command of this character, using her near operatic delivery to frame Ursula’s sweet deviousness.

Mix in Mersisters, Sailors, and Princesses; blend Seagulls, Chefs, and Tentacles; add a Sea Chorus, a combined choir of over 80 students — everyone immersed in enthu-siastic performance — and you

have an evening of incomparable entertainment.

Costumes by Darrelynne Sut-ton, Christy Rutherford and cast parents were alive with a glittering aquarium palette — all designed not to restrict movement.

Jeff Hall’s innovative projected scenes and designs brought depth and dazzle to the production. One effect was mesmerizing: a darkened stage with a blue background of as-cending bubbles; in the foreground, Ariel’s silhouette glides toward the surface.

And the unseen angels: elegant-ly spartan sets by Mark, Dani and John Lorentzen; Robin Robinson Hall’s innovative stage direction and choreography; confident technical support from Kenda Simonson, Jared Kneidl, Gabi

Simonson and David Simonson, and efficient program design by Megan Hughes.

And, of course, the archangel: music director John Lorentzen, whose creativity could be seen everywhere.

Perhaps Whitney Houston said it best:

“ … (the) children are our future,Teach them well and let them

lead the way,Show them all the beauty they

possess inside … ”On Friday night, on the Sequim

High School stage, I could see the future.

MYRA is a SWEETHEART, but does have her issues. Myra is great with people, but does NOT like other dogs or cats! She MUST be an ONLY pet and have a very well-FENCED yard. Even with her older age, and her missing a limb,

Myra WILL chew through a rope and/or climb a fence. It is recommended she be kenneled in the house when left alone. She has been returned once for doing damage to the interior of the house. Myra is a challenge, but she’ll be a great dog!

GUIDO is a very large, happy and friendly guy! He came in with Capone and they get along very well. Guido’s former guardian called him, “the best chubby pit bull someone could

have!” And we agree... We are also told that one of his favorite activities is “sni� ng stu� .” If you think Guido might make a good companion for you, come on down and meet him!

LULU is such a happy girl! LuLu is a very sweet pit bull that needs a home that can spend lots of time with her. LuLu should be an only pet. She is not overly aggressive with other animals, but she has

a history of scu� es in the past with other dogs in her home. LuLu does pull pretty hard on her leash, but that’s just because she is so excited to get down into the play yard where she can run and run and run!!!

SOPHIE & ALEXANDER are new arrivals. They are pretty scared and timid right now... Their world has just been dramatically turned around after both of their owners died. We believe they are used to

being outside; probably need to be the only pets... We are still learning about their personalities, and will update more info as we get to know them.
