Helicopter magnate and South Whidbey property owner

Frank Robinson is planning to donate nearly 300 feet of shoreline in Mutiny Bay to the public, Island County offi-cials have confirmed.

Public Works Director Bill Oakes met with the Island County commissioners last week and briefed the board on ongoing discussions with the Robinson family about the potential beachfront land donation.

Oakes said Robinson con-sidered giving the property

to the county three years ago but those talks never materi-alized. His declining health, however, has brought the dis-cussion back to the forefront.

Although it’s not yet clear which public agency the shoreline property would be donated too — several are possible candidates — Oakes said this was an opportunity that should not be ignored.

“Public beach access is so limited in Island County, it’s a high priority of the parks plan,” Oakes said.

Robinson is the founder of the Robinson Helicopter Company, which manufac-tures the highly successful R22 and R44. It is one of the worlds leading manufactur-

ers of civil helicopters, hav-ing produced 10,000 aircraft as of this past November, according to the company’s website.

Robinson, who lives in London, England, could not be reached for comment.

The property to be donat-ed is located along Robinson Road just south of the Mutiny Bay boat launch, which is jointly owned by the county, 75 percent, and the Port of

South Whidbey, 25 percent. At just over an acre in

size, the property would add 291 feet of shoreline to the approximately 60 feet already under public ownership at the boat launch. The site is already utilized by the public, especially fishermen.

According to Oakes, the Robinson family does have a few conditions. The prop-erty can only be used as a public, the park’s name must

include the Robinson family name, and the adjacent boat launch must be maintained and remain in public owner-ship.

While public beaches and beach accesses on Whidbey Island are rare and consid-ered by many to be precious real estate, the county parks department is struggling to maintain what it has.

In fact, resources are so tight that the county is trying

to pass off stewardship or ownership of some proper-ties to other public agencies, such as South Whidbey Parks and Recreation District.

Oakes told the board the hope was to do the same here but the parks district has declined to take on the property.

Oakes is now pinning his hopes on the port.

Although the port’s board was expected to discuss the matter at a special meeting Tuesday evening, which was after deadline and could not be reported on for this story, Commissioner and board president Curt Gordon said Monday he is wary of accept-ing property that may not fit with the port’s goals.

A political group that believes civilization is on the verge of collapse became the source of turmoil in Freeland last week.

Two people associated with the LaRouche Political Action Committee set up a table on the sidewalk in front of the post office Friday with inflammatory signs of President Barack Obama and seeking donations from the public.

One sign read, “A vote for Obama is a vote for nuclear war” while another had in bold, “Impeach, Obama Complicit Libya 9/11.” It con-tained a large a picture of the president with a superim-posed Adolf Hitler mustache.

The unidentified man and

woman team quickly became the subject of public ire. Some people called them names while others accused the pair of lacking an education, said Jenny Grisewood, a Freeland resident.

“I got into it too,” she said. “Their mere presence was

inciting anger.”Grisewood declined to

repeat her comments, saying only that she “wasn’t very nice” and would apologize if given the opportunity.

According to Undersheriff Kelly Mauck, there were no reports of violence but the

couple did call the police to complain that people were disrupting their efforts to speak to the public. An offi-cer that was dispatched to the scene did not observe any crimes being committed.

Mauck said that wasn’t the first call his office received regarding the couple. Rather, officers had been fielding calls from the general public throughout the day and ear-lier in the week, he said.

Apparently people with the action group made at least one other appearance in Freeland, he said. People complained that they were blocking the sidewalk and traffic, but officers who spent time observing them never witnessed any laws being broken.

sage, they were exercising their right to free speech in a legal place and the police had no authority to make them stop or leave, Mauck said.

“Really, there was no law enforcement action to be taken,” he said.

Grisewood said they may have been within their rights, but she felt their message was an abuse of free speech and twisted its intent.

“They were promoting hate,” she said.

According to Larouche Political Action Committee’s website, the group is cen-tered on the philosophies and proposed policies of Lyndon LaRouche, who believes civi-lization worldwide is facing collapse.

Calls to the group’s Seattle office for comment Tuesday were not returned.

Children’s�Theater�announces�new�director

Whidbey Children’s Theater announced a succession in artistic leadership for the youth theater. Current Artistic Director Rose Woods has given formal notice that she will step down as artistic director of Whidbey Children’s Theater in March 2013 to pursue a place with the Island Shakespeare Festival.

“I feel it’s a part of a leader’s responsibility to look to the long-term of an organization you’re asked to lead,” Woods said in a press release, adding that succes-sion has been in her thoughts for awhile.

Toward that end, Woods recom-mended Kenneth Martinez to the board as a highly qualified succes-sor. After a thorough review, the board voted unanimously to hire Martinez as interim artistic direc-tor.

“Ken has become a familiar face here at WCT since he took to the stage in ‘Little Women,’” Woods said. “His first directing assign-ment, ‘Winnie the Pooh,’ was a clear hit with audiences, and as he continued as assistant director of ‘Snow White,’ the kids here — and their parents — grew to love and trust him as I have.”

Martinez has a history as an experienced performer, director, designer, administrator and educa-tor. Martinez made his performing debut in a parks and recreation show at age 6. Since that time, he has accrued scores of perform-ing credits in plays and musicals throughout Southern California

and in Western Washington; he has also performed with a variety of vocal groups, from choruses to professional Christmas caroling groups.

“In the past year,” Martinez said, “as I have become deeply involved with Whidbey Children’s Theater, I have come to know what a unique and priceless place it holds in the education, development and culture of our community.”

“Working with the community, parents and children to continue to provide the essential experi-ences already in place, and to carry that vision forward for a new generation of South Whidbey children, will be both a creatively stimulating and deeply satisfying professional challenge,” Martinez added.

Martinez will be directing the WCT production “Willy Wonka” during October and November and will work side-by side with Woods before assuming the artistic director role upon Woods’ departure in late February.

Woods said her departure is bit-tersweet.

“I have uncountable joys and memories these past years,” she said. “I’ve been excited to wit-ness continued growth with the children and their families as well as a newfound appreciation and enthusiasm in the community for WCT. I think there is much more richness and joy ahead as WCT continues to grow and thrive.”

Woods has offered to return to Whidbey Children’s Theater on a project basis as a guest director and instructor. She will also join the Advisory Board of Whidbey Children’s Theater.

Former student trainer returns with doctorateBY BEN WATANABE

Staff reporter

FREELAND — The last time Brittany Marks walked the Falcon sideline of Waterman Field, she still had her maiden name.

That was six years and two academic degrees ago. Marks, formerly Wheeler, is the newest physical therapist in the FamilyCare Physical Therapy group.

She works as the main therapist at the Freeland office. After graduating with her doctorate of physical therapy from the University of Southern California in May, Marks and her hus-band Josh came back to Whidbey Island.

“I love the island,” Marks said, “especially after living in L.A., we appreciated it more. There is just a lot of concrete, not a lot of green.”

Marks added: “One of the best things (about being back) is running into former patients.”

Her return was part of the plan before she left for Los Angeles. Marks return to join the practice was in the works even when she was getting her bachelor’s degree at the University of Washington.

“She’s everything you would want in an employee, she’s honest, she’s smart and she cares about her patients,” said FamilyCare owner Jim Christensen.

Now, Marks is back on the fields where first wrapped sore legs and checked for

sprains and fractures. As a therapist for FamilyCare, she’s working for her old boss and mentor. The two can be spotted at least once a week on the Falcon sideline during girls soccer matches or football games, stretch-ing players’ sore legs, stress testing injuries and wrapping sprained ankles.

“It was a little different stepping back onto the field,” Marks said. “With Jim still there, he still runs the show.”

Christensen has taught Marks since she was in high school back in the early 2000s. She was in Christensen’s athletic train-ing class at South Whidbey High School and continued

her young career as a stu-dent trainer all four years as a Falcon. Marks became the head student trainer, scheduled the other students to work at games and set up the equipment.

“I could rely on her, she was my right hand,” Christensen said. “She’s a real success story of the whole school system on South Whidbey, and she also shows the value of having a vocational training program at the high school.”

Physical therapy has been Marks’ chosen profession since she was a high school freshman in Christensen’s basic athletic training class, that is according to an old Record article.

“I just have a really good relationship with Jim,” Marks said. “I have a lot of respect for him.”

“He made me more com-fortable working with differ-ent people.”

Relationships are an important part of the therapy

process, in Marks’ eyes. Watching patients progress through an injury or afflic-tion is the reason she became a licensed physical thera-pist. That’s also one of the reasons she doesn’t mind volunteering a few hours each week to work as an ath-letic trainer for the Falcons. Though, don’t mistake her presence for fan-hood, despite studying some of the most notable schools in college sports, Marks doesn’t set her schedule around College GameDay or Monday Night Football. She’s partial toward soccer and basketball, which Marks admitted is because she better understands those sports.

Working with student athletes, however, has ben-efits for the Falcons, who

are quickly assessed by Christensen or Marks and the student trainers. Patients of FamilyCare also have access to the workout facilities in Clinton, Freeland

and Oak Harbor. “We’re more experienced

with some of the injuries,” Marks said. “It’s nice being involved and helping some-one right then.”

Eventually, Marks said she was interested in spe-cializing in pediatric or neu-rological physical therapy. With FamilyCare, Marks has the opportunity to do both when she works with special needs students from South Whidbey.

“We try to be more involved in the community,” Marks said.

Governor declares state burn ban

Gov. Chris Gregoire announced this week that an emergency proclama-tion banning all outdoor burning has been extend-ed through midnight Monday, Oct. 15, and now includes all counties in Washington state.

“Washington state is experiencing a weather pattern like one we’ve rarely seen before,” Gregoire said. “The long, warm and dry spell has elevated fire danger across our state. Given that we don’t expect a significant amount of rain-fall for quite some time, it makes sense to extend this proclamation and expand the burn ban.”

The state Department of Natural Resources said Friday that critical weather conditions like these are “not seen in a lifetime.”

While residents of the Puget Sound region have been enjoying one of the best late summers / early falls in memory, the warm and dry weather comes with a price. A dry landscape increases the chance of wildfires.

“Most often it’s wind, or

snow or heavy rain that causes us problems,” said Washington State Patrol Chief John R. Batiste. “In this case some very nice weather also has an extreme downside. While we’d all like to be camp-ing or picnicking in the woods, open fires just can’t be a part of the mix.”

The burn ban prohib-its all outdoor burning, including campfires, bon-fires, fireworks and yard debris clean-up.

Liquid fueled or gas-fueled stoves are permit-ted provided that use is conducted over a non-flammable surface and is at least five feet from flammable vegetation. Charcoal grills are permit-ted at private residences under the same condi-tions.

The state’s Department of Ecology is monitor-ing air quality across Washington state where smoke-filled air remains.

Improvement, levy talks set

Discussion of school improvement plans and a pair of upcoming levies will continue at the South Whidbey School District

workshop tonight. South Whidbey’s prin-

cipals, superintendent and board members are meeting to work on maintenance and capital levies, as well as to dis-cuss the four schools’ improvement plans. After the workshop, the school board and superintendent will have an executive session to discuss upcom-ing negotiations with the principals, teachers and classified staff, such as para educators and cus-todians.

The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. at the board room at the South Whidbey Primary Campus, located at 5476 S. Maxwelton Road in Langley.

No school during teacher inservice

There will not be classes for South Whidbey School District students Friday. Teachers have a district-wide inservice day Friday, Oct. 12, giving students an early start to the week-end.

Homecoming week begins soon

South Whidbey High School will undergo a transformation next week in preparation and cel-ebration of homecoming.

The Falcons will cel-

ebrate with a handful of spirit days with themes, leading to the Friday, Oct. 19 football game against Sultan. The high school homecoming dance is set for Saturday, Oct. 20.

There will also be an early release as part of a district-wide teacher inservice day at 11:30 a.m Wednesday, Oct. 17.

Catch carnival, Creepy Concert

Celebrate Halloween with some ghoulish guys and gals at Langley Middle School’s carnival and Creepy Concert.

The annual concert is the middle school band’s main fundraiser and is free for kids in costume or $5 for everyone else. The middle school band has popular tunes queued up such as the “Spider-Man” theme, the “Harry Potter Suite,” “Monster Rock” and “Cruella DeVille.” Music begins at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 30 at the middle school cafeteria.

The carnival features games, a raffle, a cake walk and door prizes at 6 p.m. Funds and money donations will purchase new music, instruments, repairs and trips to regional concerts and scholarships.

Orcas spotted near island

Resident orca pods are returning to waters around Whidbey Island and the first sighting was reported late last month.

According to Orca Network, a Greenbank-based marine mammal advocacy group, member of L pod were seen in Admiralty Inlet as they headed back out west on Sept. 30 and Oct. 1.

Resident orca pods have spend most of the summer in San Juan Islands and are now venturing south down Admiralty Inlet chasing blackmouth and chum salmon runs into lower Puget Sound.

A large pod of orcas – likely Southern Resident orcas – were seen doing just that as of Oct. 8.

“We’ll be keeping our eyes out for the two new orca babies born this year, L119, born in May, and J49, born Aug. 6,” reported the non-profit group, in a recent news release. “J49 is the great-great grand-son of 101-year old J2 (Granny).”

Since the Federal list-ing of the Southern Resident Orcas under the Endangered Species Act, Orca Network has been assisting NOAA Fisheries and the Center for Whale Research in conducting research to track the win-

ter travels of the Southern Residents both in Puget Sound and along the coast.

Whale sightings can be reported through the group’s Whale Sighting Network’s toll-free num-ber, 1-866-ORCANET, emailed to info@orca network.org, or posted on the groups Facebook page: www.facebook.com/OrcaNetwork.

Voters forum has candidates

A political forum featur-ing candidates seeking open public office this November will be held in Freeland Thursday.

Sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Whidbey Island and Sno-Isle Libraries, the forum is scheduled to run from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Oct. 11, and will be held in at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation Church off Highway 525, about two miles north of Freeland.

Participating candidates include those vying for Island County commis-sioner, Districts 1 and 2; candidates for state representative in the 10th Legislative District, Positions 1 and 2; and those seeking the dis-trict’s open Senate seat.

Second Congressional District candidates will attend.

ElectionsJohnson is worth voting for

To the editor: In all the years I’ve been eligible to vote

I have only exercised that right once. In my opinion it’s always voting for two dif-ferent evils. I believe politicians are only in it for their own personal gains/agendas, not working for or representing us! The only reason I did vote that one time was I felt so strongly about one person not win-ning the position they were running for that I wanted to vote for anyone just to get one more vote for someone else other than that person.

Fast forward 20 years and I find myself in just the opposite position. I feel so strongly about wanting Jill Johnson as our next Island County commissioner that I am going to come out of my voting retirement and cast my vote in support of her run to obtain that position. My reasoning is not because I call her a friend that I have known for many years, but because she has proven to me not just by words but by actions that she is in it for the people. Where no other politician before has convinced me, she has demon-strated to me that at least one politician has the passion and the want to serve us.

From as far back as I can remember (high school), she has been the driving force behind many school as well as community projects that were for the sole betterment of those entities. The entire time going at those with shear passion and determination until the goal at hand was reached. It’s that determination, self sacrifice and unselfish-ness that I want to see representing our community.

BARRY MOZESClinton

Hayes has no substanceTo the editor: At the League of Women Voters forum in

Anacortes, a question came up about timber sales and how they relate to funding educa-tion. Every candidate, including his oppo-nent Tom Riggs, had a thoughtful answer and explanation — except for Dave Hayes who said, “I don’t really understand how those two things are connected [chuckle, chuckle].”

How can he claim that funding education is his main priority when he doesn’t even understand that the Department of Natural Resources funds our schools through tim-ber sales? Hayes is all style and no sub-stance, and the absolutely wrong choice for

state representative. In contrast, Tom Riggs constantly has specific policy positions and answers to questions and should be our choice for state representative.

LAURA LEWISStanwood

Emerson handles money wellTo the editor:In the Wednesday, Oct. 3 edition of the

South Whidbey Record it was reported that our county commissioners approved hiring a new planner although “the money the county earns from building fees and land use decisions are budgeted to decline by $69,000.” Yet, those same commissioners came up with $60,000 to enable the Land Trust to buy beach and upland acreage on the southwestern edge of the island. That property is accessible only by boat or by crossing private land. This action takes that property off the tax rolls, thus giving the budget a double whammy. In addition,

they have increased our property taxes by 1 percent!

Commissioners Angie Homola and Helen Price Johnson don’t seem to understand that spending $60,000 for inaccessible land (thus reducing county income) while there is a decline of $69,000 through “building fees and land use decisions” is fiscally unsound.

Commissioner Kelly Emerson voted against hiring a new planner and the land purchase. She understands that if you don’t have the money, you don’t spend it and hope for the best. We need Jeff Lauderdale and Jill Johnson to help rein in irresponsible fiscal policies.

Although there are two worthy candidates in the current race for the Senate in your area, I have endorsed Senator Haugen, even though she is in the opposite political party from mine.

She is one of the finest senators that I have ever known. Her work brought about many reforms to our state’s election systems of the years when I was your Secretary of State.

Recently her work on our state’s transpor-tation system has brought ‘across-the-aisle support’ for many major projects.

Mary Margaret is a remarkable lady who deserves your vote.

In responseReferendum 74 is about civil rights

To the editor: Stephen Kahn is con-

fused. Referendum 74 sim-ply affirms that consenting adult, same-gender partners can be legally married in the State of Washington. They can be married by judges, justices of the peace, or any other legally authorized entity.

Yes, “...churches define marriage as their beliefs dic-tate,” and yes, “Churches should be free to marry or not marry anyone they see

fit.” Referendum 74 has noth-ing to do with churches or church beliefs. Referendum 74 has everything to do with the civil right of same gen-der partners to be legally married. But to say that “Church marriage should have no legal standing” is also to miss another fact: Some churches approve of same-gender marriage and are supporting Referendum 74. For those churches it is important that their mar-riages have legal standing. Other churches need not apply.

Referendum 74 recogniz-es current legal domestic partnerships and affirms that these partners may marry. The reasoning is sim-ple. Just because domestic partnership in Washington has the same rights as

marriage doesn’t mean it carries the same personal or social validity. (Compare “Will you marry me?” to “Will you be my domestic partner?”) Separate is not equal. In a free society, mar-riage should be a civil right. Referendum 74 affirms mar-riage as a civil right for all consenting adults in the state of Washington.

Referendum 74 is the answer.

DIANE DIVELBESS and GRETHE CAMMERMEYER

Langley

Navy’s night flights are necessary

To the editor: In reference to Caralyn

Haglund’s letter to the Whidbey News-Times:

First of all, I condemn

those who acted like jerks in reply to Ms. Haglund’s letter to the editor. I hope that whoever harassed her, threatened her in any way are found and prosecuted.

I offer the following to her and others who do agree with her.

Landing on an aircraft car-rier is nothing more than a controlled crash landing. It takes nerves, concentra-tion and sometimes a little luck to be successful. Night flight landing operations are the most demanding and dangerous of all, and even more so in rough seas. Hours of practice and train-ing go into this before they are allowed to do their first carrier landing. The landing area (cable arresting area) is a very short area on the flight deck. A miss means a go around or an on-board accident. A carrier at sea goes fast enough to get at least 30 knots of wind across the flight deck, which also can be pitching and rolling, when launching and recov-ering aircraft.

I served aboard a U.S. Navy destroyer. One of our

missions was to screen the carrier, provide plane guard detail in case of a plane going into the drink or other emergencies that needed to be addressed, such as a man overboard from the carrier.

While doing this on a training mission during night flight operations, an accident happened when an aircraft landed, lighting up the flight deck with fire. Also at that time there was a possible man overboard from the carrier. We went into a search mode until the carrier took muster and accounted for all hands.

The worst accident, again at night, was when a pilot came in too low and crashed his plane into the stern. Plane parts were on the flight deck, the hangar deck, but most went into the sea. All that was found in the water was the pilot’s helmet and some papers.

Another time was when the pilot ditched his plane right alongside our ship. This was during day opera-tions in rain and rough seas. We were at flank speed when it happened. We went

to an emergency full stop, but before we could pick him up a helicopter from the carrier picked him out of the water. We even had an officer, who was disquali-fied to fly, assigned to our ship because he had ditched two aircraft when he was unable to land on a carrier. Too expensive to give him another try.

A naval aviator who flies off and onto an aircraft car-rier must be sharp and prac-ticed at all times. That is one reason they need to prac-tice. If they go past a certain number of days of not flying they must be re-qualified. In other words, they must practice, practice, practice. When a flight squadron is deployed to a carrier they must be ready to go.

To those who are com-plaining about the night use of the Outlying Field for practice carrier landings, I say why would you want to jeopardize human life, pilots as well as flight deck person-nel and multi-million dollar aircraft because you might be discomforted by these operations? For God sakes, the sound of our Navy jets is the sound of freedom. Freedom even for those who complain.

BY BEN WATANABEStaff reporter

EVERETT — Archbishop Murphy looked like the foot-ball squads of the last 10 years against South Whidbey.

The Wildcats ran around, past and over the Falcons in a 46-15 victory Friday night.

“Tonight we struggled a little bit because we weren’t sure what to expect,” said Falcon senior fullback Aaron Curfman, one of the team’s co-captains.

After a tumultuous few weeks with two coaching changes and back-to-back blowout losses, the Wildcats looked every bit like a peren-nial state title contender. Unfortunately for the 40-plus Falcon fans who came over the ferry and rode the “root-er” bus, the Wildcats’ resur-gence was at the Falcons’ expense.

South Whidbey’s chance at an upset quickly turned into a rout. A pair of 40-yard catches, a 76-yard rushing score and a returned inter-ception fueled the Wildcats’ early lead before they turned to inside runs and wracked up time of possession. The Falcons were held to one touchdown in the first half.

Falcon junior Nick Bennett had the ball ripped from his arm on the opening kick return and recovered by a pile of Wildcats. Camden Buchanan threw one of only three passes to a wide-open Conner Longoria on the first play, before the Falcons

tackled him at their 1-yard line. Wildcat senior Alex Galgano punched it in for the touchdown and Mason Bailey kick in the extra point to lead 7-0 after only a minute had ticked off the clock.

“We kind of came off a little passive and that chewed us out,” Curfman said.

Archbishop Murphy scored again one minute later after forcing South Whidbey to punt. The Wildcats scored on their first play of the drive when Hans VanderWel ran

up the middle, cut right and hit the sideline 76 yards for a touchdown. On their next possession, the Wildcats stormed downfield on a 49-yard run by Galgano, which set up a 15-yard rush-ing score for him as he ran in untouched. Bailey missed the extra point attempt, but Archbishop Murphy still led 20-0 with four minutes left in the first quarter.

Bennett atoned for his earlier fumble with a 34- yard kick return. French

connected with senior receiv-er Cameron Coupe on a five-yard pass to reach the mid field. South Whidbey called two more pass plays that resulted in an incompletion and a two-yard loss. That set up French’s 55-yard touch-down run after he dropped back to throw again, then tucked the ball into his left arm and sprinted toward the sideline where he turned upfield and beat the Wildcats’ defense. Coupe booted in the extra point to trail 20-7.

In the second quarter, Archbishop Murphy tacked on three more scores. Wildcat Ricky Gordon ran in a four-yard score half-way through the period. On South Whidbey’s next drive, the Falcons were in Wildcat territory after a penalty, but backup quarterback Parker Collins’ pass was intercepted by Galgano and returned for a touchdown.

French returned to the backfield for South Whidbey on its ensuing possession. French attempted a deep pass that was intercepted in Wildcat territory. Buchanan passed to Longoria for his second completion of the night on a deep throw before Longoria was tackled at the 3-yard line. South Whidbey’s defense stiffened and forced Archbishop Murphy into

negative yardage until Gordon ran in his second score from six yards out as the Wildcats led 39-7 at halftime.

Little time was wasted before the Wildcats scored after the break. VanderWel ripped a 53-yard touchdown run along the sideline to lead 46-7, Archbishop Murphy’s final points of its homecom-ing night.

South Whidbey attempted a pair of field goals, but both missed. One was scratched on a penalty and moved Coupe, the Falcons’ kicker, closer, but he missed wide right.

A safety by junior Beck Davis on the Wildcats’ back-up quarterback put some life back into the Falcons.

“We just have to be more physical at the start of the game,” Davis said.

South Whidbey couldn’t convert on fourth-and-short at the end of the ensuing drive after the free kick. With most of its starters out, Curfman scored a final touchdown on a 22-yard run.

“It was a must-do attitude,” Curfman said. “My sopho-more year and my junior year I was the guy to score against Archbishop Murphy. I couldn’t not score against them my senior year.”

On the Wildcats’ final drive, the Falcons recovered a fum-ble near their own end zone. South Whidbey put together a long drive, but time expired to give Archbishop Murphy its first conference victory of the season.

Wildcats return to form, maul Falcon football squad

cross country girls win league meet

South Whidbey’s girls cross country team again proved its state-ranked status. Now, they’re joined by the Falcon boys.

The Falcon girls are the third-ranked 1A team in Washington, according to a recent coaches poll. South Whidbey’s boys runners were mentioned in the poll, receiving at least one vote and missing a top-10 billing. Both teams wrapped a busy week with a Cascade Conference meet in Carnation on Thursday and an invitational in Lakewood on Saturday.

The girls team did not race

and rested at the Hole in the Wall Invitational at Lakewood High School. South Whidbey’s boys, with the exception of their top runner Cole Zink, who did not compete, were spread from sub-18 minute runs to 20 min-utes. Falcon junior Gavin Imes set a career time of 17:55.8 and finished in 37th place overall. Freshman Chris Anderson was the second Falcon boy to finish with one of his best times of the year at 18:18.2 in only his third varsity meet. Truman Hood, a sophomore, just missed match-ing his personal best time by .8 seconds (19:08.8).

The boys had one day of rest after racing at a league meet Thursday. Falcon senior captain Jhamil Bader-Jarvis had a career day and smashed his previ-ous best time by 26 seconds. Bader-Jarvis finished the 5,000-meter race at the Carnation Golf Course in 18:15.06, good

for 13th-place. Zink followed close behind for 18th place in 18:27.04. Sophomore Andy Zisette was the final scorer toward South Whidbey’s team points and set his personal best time at 19:05.43 for a 25th-place finish.

South Whidbey’s girls won the conference meet at Cedarcrest’s home course. Seniors led the way against their league opponents. Lillianna Stelling took second place with her second-best 5K time of 19:39.62. Nora Felt, also a senior, improved her personal record for a second time in a week with a 20:23.25 and fifth-place finish. Falcon freshman Mallorie Mitchem finished in sixth place (20:42.17). Senior Bonnie Klamm secured seventh place in 21:01.63. Emma Lungren, a sophomore, posted her best time of 21:41.16, which put her in 10th place.

Four more runners finished with career days: senior Anna Hood (21:54.24), freshman Carson Orr (23:59.07), freshman Ellie Boone (27:43.55), and junior Caitlyn Workman (28:35.76). Freshman Lisa Haufler ran her first high school 5K in 27:43.76.

Three seniors win final home matches

Bellingham is still the 2A team to beat in District 1. Fortunately for South Whidbey, the Falcons are 1A and won’t have to face any of the Red Raiders at the tri-district tournament.

The Red Raiders spoiled the Falcons’ senior night Friday in the regular season finale. A few Falcons escaped with victories, but the Red Raiders won the match 5-2.

South Whidbey was anchored by top singles player Guy

Sparkman. The Falcon senior defeated Shane Miller 6-4, 6-4. In the second doubles match, Falcon seniors Kyle Simchuk and Mitchell Hughes partnered for the first time this season to beat Red Raiders Connor Thomson and Sam Ferguson, 6-3, 7-6 (7-2).

At second singles, Bellingham’s Charlie Carmichael defeated Falcon senior Taylor Simmons, 6-0, 6-3. Brad Dale dropped Falcon sophomore Jack Hood in the third singles match, 6-2, 6-0.

Bellingham’s top doubles team of Auden Schilder and EJ Troutman beat sophomores Charley Stelling and Jonathon Peterson in the first doubles match, 6-2, 6-2. At third doubles, Falcon senior Cameron Baldwin and sophomore Austin Drake lost 1-6, 2-6 to Logan Schilder and Nick Nolan.

Forecast rain may move the district tournament to Thursday.

BY JUSTIN BURNETTStaff reporter

Candidates for local, state and federal races sparred in Oak

Harbor Thursday at the first of a series of political forums geared around the November general election.

Sponsored by the League of Women Voters of Whidbey Island and Sno-Isle Libraries, the forum was held at the Elks Lodge and was attended by a crowd of more than 100 people, according to Marshall Goldberg, a league member and the evening’s moderator.

“The attendance wasn’t as much as I’d hoped, but I’m prejudiced,” Goldberg said after the forum. “I wanted to

fill the seats.”Considering that the

forum was held on a Thursday evening and on the night after the first presi-dential debate, Goldberg said he was satisfied with the turnout overall.

Participating were can-didates from a total of six races. The format saw that each was quizzed with ques-tions prepared in advance by league members — ques-tions from the crowd were not permitted — that were tailored to issues concerning each race.

One of the most charged debates of the evening was waged between Second Congressional District candidates Rick Larsen, the Democrat incumbent, and Republican challenger Dan

Matthews.The two battled over

hot-button issues ranging from partisan bickering in Washington D.C., the stricken economy and the road to recovery to defense spending, the national debt and health care.

Addressing the Affordable Care Act, Larsen said it lacked quality cost controls in Medicare. One way to lessen the burden on Medicare, he said, is to ensure seniors have easy access to health care early in life.

He also added, just before it was Matthews’ turn to address health care, that claims of Congress taking $716 billion from Medicare to cover other costs are patently false.

“That claim/assertion has been debunked by every credible fact-checker in the United States,” Larsen said.

“Every credible Democrat fact-checker,” Matthews fired back. “In fact, that is the figure that has come out and the Office of Management and Budget said the figure will probably increase.”

Going on the offensive, Matthews said the differ-ence between Larsen and himself was the “all or noth-ing” approach to health care. It’s “simple inaccurate” to maintain that health issues can only be addressed by the Affordable Care Act, he said.

Matthews went on to attack Larsen’s record, claiming the veteran law-maker had accomplished very little in his 12 years in office and has yet to rise to “significant levels of

leadership.”“There is very little to his

credit,” he said. “That is his record.”

Larsen wasn’t on the ropes for long. He noted that individuals Matthews had cited as holding more rank-ing positions had, in fact, been there years longer and deserved their seniority.

He said he is the lead-ing Democrat on the Coast Guard and Maritime Transportation Committee and will be leading the aviation sub-committee of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee next year.

There are 435 mem-bers of the House of Representatives and he claimed he has been part of 5 percent of the “bills of sub-stance” that have passed.

“Five percent isn’t a lot but it is when you’re only

one-435th of the entire con-gress,” Larsen said.

More water?Not all the debates were

so fiery. Rather, the discus-sion between the four can-didates seeking positions 1 and 2 in the 10th Legislative District for state House was a cordial affair that saw more friendly smiles than political jabs.

Their 30 minutes on the proverbial hot seat was so easygoing, at one point Tom Riggs, a Camano Democrat running for position 2, cheerily poured a glass of water for Norma Smith, a Clinton Republican seeking reelection to position 1.

Despite their political affiliations, the candidates even found common ground on some issues, such as the need for regulatory reform.

They did, however, differ on the extent they believe it’s needed.

Their top priorities were also similar, though they again differed here and there. Riggs said jobs would be his focus if elected while challenger David Hayes, a Republican from Camano, talked about economic viability.

Smith said the economy and private sector job creation is at the top of her list while challenger Aaron Simpson, a Langley Democrat, has his eye on increasing eduction funding.

Another largely tame dis-cussion occurred between the hopefuls for Island County commissioner dis-trict 1 and 2. Candidates were hit with a gambit of issues that have become

Public works open house planned BY RECORD STAFF

A design for a new road between Race Road and Houston Road on Central Whidbey Island will be the subject of a public open house by Island County Public Works from 6 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 25 at the Central Whidbey Fire Station, 1164 Race Road, Coupeville.

The new road will pro-vide an emergency alter-nate route should Highway 525 become blocked.

According to a press release, six different options were studied for this alternate route. A route that incorporates Kempton Place — currently a private road — was identified as the preferred route for the new road.

Engineers have studied

four separate variations and have identified a preferred route to move forward through design.

Preliminary design plans will be presented at the open house. Community members are encouraged to drop in at any time between 6 and 8 p.m. to learn more about the project.

Island County received a federal grant to develop the road design to a 60-percent level and to acquire some of the road right-of-way. Local funds have been budgeted to complete the right-of-way acquisition.

Officials say the 60 per-cent completion and right-of-way will put the county in a better position to com-pete for additional funding to complete the design and construction.

For more information, contact Connie Bowers, as-sistant county engineer, at 360-679-7331 or [email protected].

central to the commissioner races.

That included how the candidates would prioritize the budget.

Oak Harbor Republican Jill Johnson was up first and, hitting what seems to have become one the core issues of this election, said law and justice funding should come first. Restoring a profession-al “tone” to the board was her other top goal, she said.

Next up was Coupeville Republican Jeff Lauderdale and he likewise said he would focus on public safety. He also aims to reduce regulation that he said was stifling growth.

Incumbent Clinton Democrat Helen Price Johnson said she hopes to bring people together to address public health and safety needs, foster a vibrant economy and preserve a quality of life.

Finally, incumbent Oak Harbor Democrat Angie Homola said the job of every commissioner is to protect the health, safety and wel-fare of the community while balancing the budget.

Clout questionedThe last race of the

evening was between state Rep. Barbara Bailey, R-Oak Harbor, and incumbent Sen. Mary Margaret Haugen, D-Camano, for the 10th Legislative District Senate seat.

The discussion saw a range of topics discussed, from ideas about how each candidate hopes to solve the funding headaches plaguing the state’s education system to legislation each lawmaker is proud of.

Naturally, the future of Washington State Ferries was also discussed. The candidates were asked how they felt the ferry system, particularly routes on Whidbey Island, would be affected by the results of this election.

Haugen was quick to point out that she believed this “was the real issue you need to deal with” because she is the chairwoman of the Senate Transportation Committee. She said she would be writing the trans-portation budget next year.

She took credit for the replacement of the Steel Electrics, which were retired suddenly in late 2007 for safety reasons. Ferries will

remain her top priority, she said.

“I told you before I would take care of the ferries,” Haugen said. “They will not be cut under my leadership.”

Bailey said ferries would not be cut under her leader-ship either and was equally quick to point out that fer-ries have been plagued with problems for years.

Also, the replacement of the Steel Electrics was any-thing but smooth. Officials had to scramble to find a design and the first boat didn’t hit the water until 2010.

If Haugen’s position and influence is so great, why haven’t the issues been dealt with, she asked.

“Why are we continually in this problem?” Bailey said. “I think that’s the real question.”

Haugen responded by claiming that if she is unseated in November, her

position will not go to Bailey. Rather, she said it would go to a legislator in a district not serviced by the state ferry system.

“My opponent will not be writing the transportation budget,” Haugen said. “And they may promise her (fer-ries in specific locations) but she won’t get the boats.”

Bailey said she never claimed she would be chairwoman of the com-mittee but again promised that ferries would not be cut under her watch. She also noted that no matter who writes the budget, it still has to be passed by the Legislature.

“It takes 50 votes in the House and 25 votes in the Senate to pass a budget … and a governor willing to sign it,” Bailey said.

Page 10: South Whidbey Record, October 10, 2012

Beach access is important but any property taken on should also have applications as an economic driver, such as the ability for fisher-men to put their boats in the water at the boat ramp.

“We don’t want to take on parks just for the sake of parks,” said Gordon, adding that administrative costs are also a concern.

“You can only manage what you can pay for and we have a lot on our plate right now,” he said.

Fellow Commissioner Dennis Gregoire said administrative costs are a concern to him as well, but he argued that beach access is a primary objective of port districts. He strongly supports accepting the property, calling it an “incredible opportunity,” but is also hoping for some type of partnership with the county.

“The ideal way to do it is collaboratively,” Gregoire said.

Some of the same financial concerns of management costs associated with taking on additional public property was brought up during last weeks meeting with Oakes and the Island County commissioners.

Commissioner Kelly Emerson questioned the wisdom of accepting more land when the county is struggling just to maintain what it has.

“I’m just saying the obvious, that there is a concern about any added land to the parks department when we have no idea how to fund what we have now,” she said.

Oakes said the costs were minimal; there is no trash pick up at the property and the portable toilet is there on a seasonal basis. Other than some new signage, nothing would change under public ownership, he said.

Emerson expressed strong doubts.“There is no such thing as a free lunch,”

she said.

Commissioner Helen Price Johnson encouraged Emerson to visit the property, describing it as “rugged” and undeveloped. Seeing it in person would make it clear that there is little to maintain, she said.

Oakes told Emerson that while he hopes to strike an agreement with the port, he does not want to miss the opportunity for additional public beach access.

“If it comes down to the county or nothing, I’m recommending that we take it,” he said.

Price Johnson and Commissioner Angie Homola voiced agreement.

“I know that public beach access is a high

priority for this community,” Price Johnson said. “I’m in favor of it.”

“I would be supportive of additional access to the beach for the public in every oppor-tunity we have; there are so few of them,” Homola said.

Deception Pass State Park has been nominated to the National Register of Historic Places and the Washington Heritage Register.

It’s an honor that may improve the park’s opportunities for grant funding, but offers no new protec-tion or restrictions on the park or surrounding areas.

Deception Park Manager Jack Hartt is something of an expert on the park’s history. He said the bridge and another area of the park are already in the national register, but the entire 3,380 acres should be added.

“There are a lot of different nar-ratives that meld here and create a mosaic of stories that weave togeth-er,” he said.

Hartt said that the pass — with fertile shellfish beds and salmon running close to shore — was home to at least two different Native American tribes. In the 20th cen-tury, prisoners were used to quarry rock from the steep cliffs.

The park itself was created by a group of unemployed young men brought in from all over the nation in the 1930s. The “boys” of the Civilian Conservation Corps, a

Depression-era New Deal program, built the roads and trails throughout

the park. They built the famous rock walls on the side of Highway 20 and

m a n y o t h e r w a l l s a n d f e n c e s w i t h i n t h e park.

Using n a t i v e materi -als, they

built many dozens of buildings, including shelters, pump houses, latrines and a caretaker’s residence. The distinctive buildings are still used by visitors today.

“The workmanship is just incred-ible,” Hartt said, but added that maintaining the 70-year-old struc-tures takes a lot of work.

“It’s a treasure for all of us and we need to take care of it,” he said.

Of course, there’s the famous and historic Deception Pass Bridge that connects the two sides of the park. It was listed in the national register in 1982, but the rest of the park was left out.

Michael Houser, an architectural historian with the state, said it’s very likely that the park will be added to the state and national registers. The Governor’s Advisory Council meets

Oct. 11 to discuss whether to rec-ommend the listing. A decision will likely be made later this year.

Houser emphasized that the list-ings don’t bring about any restric-tions and don’t protect structures.

“It’s strictly honorary,” he said.If the park is listed, a plan will

be developed that documents all the historic aspects of the park and maps out how the park can maintain the integrity of the history, Houser said.

National register listings don’t come with funding, but it could help the park secure grants.

“The national register isn’t a golden ticket to grants, but it gives you some great brownie points,” he said.

FORGET MOON-

LIGHTINGImagine working two jobs, in

two different locations, with one job providing excellent earnings while the other pays nothing? Which job would get the bulk of your attention?

Homeowners sometimes place themselves in such a situation when they plant a “For Sale By Owner” sign. To successfully market a home, it is necessary to be available at all hours — seven days a week. The home must be kept in model condition, ready for showings — sometimes with only 30 minutes notice.

Research must be done to de-termine recent sale prices on comparable homes. A market-ing campaign must be planned and implemented. Mortgage loans must be arranged, apprais-als and inspections coordinated, and... well... you get the picture.

Real estate specialists work full-time. Period. They under-stand the complexities of mar-keting a home, and are 100% committed to the achievement of your objectives. Amazingly, they get paid only after suc-cessfully selling each home. Thinking of trying it as a “By Owner?” Think again!

The life not traveled

BY REBECCA OLSONStaff reporter

Stuck in a lukewarm marriage and average job, middle-aged Becky feels like she’s got-ten a flat

tire on her journey through life. But everything changes when a mysterious millionaire shows up one night and offers her the ride of her life, an opportunity to live “the life not taken” and a chance she just can’t miss.

A play about life, love and the detours made on the way to happiness, “Becky’s New Car” opens at Whidbey Island Center for the Arts Friday, Oct. 12 and runs through Saturday, Oct. 27.

The play is directed by Deana Duncan and the cast includes Suzanne Kelman, Tom Harris, Jeff Riggs, Phil Jordan, Athena Michaelides, Patricia Duff and Eric Mulholland.

“I think the birth of this play is really

interesting,” Duncan said. This is her 12th year as producing/programming director at WICA. She has directed a number of plays at WICA as well as studied directing with Tony Nominated Bartlett Sher in Seattle

for two seasons. “In late October 2006, Seattle phi-lanthropist Charlie Staadecker asked his wife Benita for some suggestions for a major gift that he might purchase for her upcoming 60th birthday and she said, ‘Surprise me.’”

And that’s just what Charlie Staadecker did. They had recently spoken with a woman who had commissioned a tuba concerto with the Seattle Symphony and Charlie Staadecker decided to do something similar. He com-missioned playwright Steven Dietz to write a play in commemoration of his wife’s birthday. The Staadeckers have attended more than 20 performances of “Becky’s New Car” across the country and will be in

attendance at

WICA on Sunday, Oct. 14 and will partici-pate in a free “talk back” after the 2 p.m. matinee.

Another event is the fine art exhibit “Paths” and car show from 6 to 7 pm. Friday, Oct. 12. This pre-show event is free.

“Rehearsals have been fun and challeng-ing. ‘Becky’s New Car’ is a smart and high-ly complex play. Suzanne Kelman (playing Becky) and I have spent hours discussing how we thought it was a nice little comedy and would be so much fun and then once we really started working on it, realizing how deep and truly touching it is. The play takes these crazy turns and catches us off guard, surprises us again and again. It will do the same for an audience,” Duncan said.

As audience members laugh along with the comedic elements of “Becky’s New Car” and find personal meaning in its seri-ous overtones, Duncan attributes the power of the play to Dietz’s writing.

“Steven Dietz is a brilliant play-wright. He takes this sort

of ‘everywoman’ story and

drives it off a

cliff. He breaks the fourth wall like no play-wright before; a truly 21st century play that has the potential to change the way we pro-duce theater. Plus, these stellar actors and designers, I couldn’t ask for a better team,” Duncan said.

“Becky’s New Car” is supported in part by a grant from U.S. Bank and the 2012-

2013 WICA Producer’s Circle.

Jackie Chan and “Matrix” fans will jump out of their seats at this show featuring a calculated chaos of dancing, juggling, music, acrobatics, slow motion, pop-culture comedy and high energy kung-faux fighting.

NANDA, a four-man per-forming arts group, presents “The Jacket” at 5 p.m. Oct. 14 at South Whidbey High School. Tickets cost $20 for adults, $15 for students and seniors and $12 for children. Visit www.nandatown.com for tickets.

This “Kung-Faux Ninja Circus Arts Extravaganza” originated in Port Townsend about eight years ago and swept Seattle last fall with the first feature-length pro-duction, “The Jacket.”

NANDA Manager Daniel Milholland has been work-ing with this group for over six years and has been close friends with the NANDA performers for much longer.

“This tour has given us

the opportunity and incen-tive to reach out to an extensive network of friends, businesses, groups and organizations throughout the West Coast,” Milholland said in a press release. “We are building mutually beneficial and cross promotional partnerships with dozens of different types of businesses, which fully aligns with our vision of ‘Acrobaticalism,’ a NANDA-produced term that means to be part of a global community full of support, imagination and intercultural collaboration.”

“The Jacket” is meant to feel like watching an action-adventure blockbuster come to life on stage, according to a press release. NANDA’s unique brand of entertain-

ment is characterized by comedic randomness that embraces seemingly spon-taneous eruptions of specta-cle. NANDA has developed

a wide rep-ertoire with skill-based perfor-mance piec-es, which integrate juggling, acrobatics, dance and music, as well as a high-energy, comedy-driven form

of stage combat referred to as “kung-faux.” The show is tied together with original music, cinematic sound effects and witty pop culture parodies.

“We knew our show had wide appeal factors within it, but it wasn’t until last year that we really felt confirma-tion that audiences ages 3 to 100 could truly enjoy ‘The Jacket,’” Milholland said.

The word nanda is a Japanese colloquialism that is translated as an expres-sion of surprise. It’s no coin-cidence that “The Jacket” is filled with eruptions of the

unexpected, both in physi-cal prowess, but also in the creativity of the imagination behind each and every element performed in the show.

The story of “The Jacket” is told almost exclusively through physical action with minimal dialogue, making the show appealing across cultures and languages.

Bask in “la dolce vita” of Italy at a celebration of the Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center’s first 15 years. Enjoy everything Italian — from gnocchi a la romana at din-ner to a Fiat 500 car raffle.

“It’s celebrat-ing that 15 years ago, we began offering language classes to kids,” said Josette Hendrix, founder and direc-tor of the academy. And now, the academy offers language immersion classes, brings in groups from other coun-tries and even has rooms for people from out of town to spend the night to attend classes.

“So we’re celebrating the growth and coming of age of the organization and we’re excited about the future and the things we can do for the community and whole Puget Sound area,” Hendrix said.

“Una Sera a Napoli” gala offers everything a fancy evening in Naples would. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 13, guests from around the world will meet at Freeland Hall for a cocktail hour featuring fine wine, an antipasto buffet, a gourmet three-course Italian meal prepared by chef Jacob Wiegner of Seattle’s Blackboard Bistro, and a live performance by renowned

tenor Gino Lucchetti and soprano Regina Thomas of Puget Sound Concert Opera, who will sweep guests into the enchanting world of Italian opera and song with pieces by Scarlatti, Tosti, Puccini, Ponchieli and more.

A live auction will offer guests the chance to bid on

getaways, local pam-pering, dinners and art to help raise additional funds to support the acad-emy. The grand prize will be a raffle for a Fiat car.

“This is a very bold and

exciting idea that we had, to try and do fundraising in a way that is new — there has never been a raffle of this kind on South Whidbey — and fun and exciting for people. They can help out a great cause and also have a really good chance to win an incredible prize worth over $17,000. We have currently sold about 500 tickets, so the odds are very favorable,” Hendrix said.

The nonprofit was founded in 1996 on the idea that language and culture are fundamental to shap-ing the world. Along with celebrating and fundraising, the event is meant to raise awareness of the academy’s opportunities for the com-munity. Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center offers language class-es for travel, work-related, connecting to the family of origin and more.

“We’re particularly pas-sionate about providing these opportunities to kids,” Hendrix said.

The summer camps are the academy’s signature program, offering various language immersion camps for kids and their families.

“It’s also an exciting way to bring families together around a common learning experience,” Hendrix said, adding that kids usually come with a parent or grand-parent.

One of her treasured memories is of a girl from Seattle who came to French camp for years with her aunt. When she was old enough to come on her own, she brought her sister.

“The family had a way to bond together and do something really special and unique. That was gratifying for us,” Hendrix said.

As the academy grew, now it has the abil-ity to host groups and give them the full experience of the “rich-ness of what Whidbey can offer,” Hendrix said. “So that’s exciting for us as well, to be contributing to the vitality of our community.”

Currently, the acad-emy is hosting a group of Indonesian teachers. Last summer, they hosted a group from Japan and took them to a glassblowing stu-dio and a goat farm, where they saw the process of cre-

ating cheese.“So it contributes to a

deepening of their under-standing of our way of life,”

Hendrix said. “For our com-munity, it’s an incredible opportunity to meet other people from across the world.”

As the community gets a taste of Naples during “Una Sera a

Napoli,” Hendrix said she hopes more people will become interested in learn-ing about the world through

Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center.

“I think it’s going to be more and more needed, this

ability to understand each other across the globe,” Hendrix said.

A bull elk decided to explore Whidbey Island and residents are taking notice.

The wandering elk, which are rarely seen on the island, has been hanging out near Strawberry Point on North Whidbey. He’s been hiding in the grass and enjoying the apples on nearby trees.

“It’s been pretty low key. We knew it would be a matter of time,” Ralph Downes, an officer with the Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife, said about reports of the animal being spotted on Whidbey.

He said he got the first reports about the elk about three weeks ago. It took several reports before he thought the sightings were

credible. “A chance of an elk on

Whidbey Island is very, very slim,” Downes said. Judging from reports, it looks like the elk could be five years old.

He said the elk is also safe from potential hunters because Whidbey Island is in a game management unit that lacks a hunting season.

Some people have man-aged to photograph the elk.

“He was huge,” said Madeline Biekert, who snapped a shot of the elk as it meandered onto the prop-erty near Strawberry Point she owns with her husband, Kevin.

Downes said the elk probably swam to Whidbey Island from Skagit County, when a herd wandered down to the lowlands. He said elk are excellent swimmers, add-ing he’s heard of reports of

elks swimming several miles off the Washington coast. Why it was there, nobody knows.

A herd of elk was spotted in the Skagit lowlands in recent weeks before migrat-ing back up to the hills. Downes said Whidbey’s elk must have wandered away then.

While the elk is keeping a low-key presence basi-cally grazing in the fields, he doesn’t think it will stay on Whidbey much longer.

It’s currently the middle of rutting season for elk. While Whidbey provides plenty of food, the island lacks other bulls for sparring and cows for socializing, Downes said. He’ll probably swim across Skagit Bay to rejoin his herd.
