Coupeville Town Marshal Lance Dav-enport said he was able to track down a shoplifter with the help of the public and Internet.

By utilizing a free web service called CanYouID.me, Davenport was able to post surveillance images of a man suspected of stealing hundreds of dollars worth of mer-chandise from a Front Street business.

The March 3 shoplifting incident prompted Davenport to use the service shortly after becoming a member.

The owner of the shop provided 30 min-utes of surveillance footage of the suspect.

Davenport said he was able to pull several good images of the man to create a suspect profile.

The case against the man in question, a 25-year-old Whidbey Island transient, was forwarded to the Island County Prosecu-tor’s Office for consideration of charges.

The website allows other law enforce-ment personnel as well as the public to search by town or city and look at images of people the police are looking for.

If someone recognizes a person they can contact that agency directly.

Davenport said within a week of post-ing images, he started receiving tips.

“It took about a week or so for people to start seeing,” he said. “Every couple of days info would trickle in.”

Davenport also said the information seemed to be coming from a wide variety of areas and didn’t appear to be coming from one group of people.

“It proved very successful,” he said.Once Davenport had a suspect in mind

he said he was able to compare the sur-veillance images with prior arrest photo-graphs.

The man has a criminal past for similar types of crime.

“I feel strongly we identified the right person,” he said.

Because Coupeville has such heavy tourism traffic, the website might also prove useful in identifying suspects who don’t live on the island.

More often than not criminals go out of their area of residence to commit crime, Davenport said.

Members of the Coupeville Garden Club are putting on their sleuthing hats to solve a mystery surrounding a popular statue.

Club members want to know the name of the good Samaritan who recently cleaned a bronze statue standing in Cook’s Corner Park near downtown Coupeville.

“We would like to know who and thank the person,” said Coupeville Garden Club member Mary Dent.

The statue in question is Randy, a bronze sculpture of a young boy pouring a bucket of water over his head.

The Coupeville Garden Club donated Randy to the town of Coupeville in 2000 and has been a popular feature at Cook’s Corner Park ever since.

A water pump is hooked up to Randy which allows water to trickle from the bucket over his head.

That trickle tends to leave water marks on Randy.

She said it appears whoever cleaned the statue knew what they were doing.

Removing the lime scale requires the light use of a propane torch and then application of carnuba wax, said Larry Smith, public works superintendent for the Town of Coupe-ville.

He said he contacted the sculptor about the best way to maintain the bronze statue. He said he was appreciative of the anony-mous statue cleaner.

“Kudos and thanks to whoever helped us out,” Smith said.

Randy is one of two statues standing in the small corner park which is home to the annual tree lighting which takes place each December during the Greening of Coupe-ville.

Randy’s partner Sally was placed at the

park in 2001 and named in honor of Sally Hart, who joined the Coupeville Garden Club in 1990 and headed the sculpture com-mittee before passing away in 2001.

Kind-hearted fans of the popular statue have paid special attention to the duo.

Randy has been dressed in a cap and stocking when the temperature drops.

Dent said she tied the yellow ribbons cur-rently on Sandy’s pony tails. Sandy is seated facing Randy, but she doesn’t get the same water marks as the water-logged boy.

The sculpture was cast by Jim Demetro, who works from his studio in Battle Ground, Wash.

If anyone has any information about who cleaned Randy, call Dent at 360-678-7069.

Members of the Coupeville Garden Glub want to know the name of the anonymous person who recently cleaned Randy, a bronze statue of a little boy pouring a bucket of water over his head. In the background is a statue of a little girl, named Sally, who is watching Randy. The two statues have been prominent features at Cook’s Corner Park near downtown Coupeville for more than 10 years.

Commissioners for the Port of Coupe-ville are rolling back statements they made several months ago concerning a Green-bank resident’s perusal of district records in the port office while the office was unat-tended and the door was locked.

Two commissioners, Marshal Bronson and Benye Weber, two months ago were critical of Greenbank resident Rick Abra-ham’s actions when he entered the port of-fice while it was closed and the doors were locked and was examining records on the port’s computer.

Abraham took offense to those criti-cisms. He has argued that he had permis-sion to be in the office unattended, and he threatened to take legal action against the Port of Coupeville, according to a letter he submitted to the port in March.

Marshal Bronson, who heads the board of commissioners, read a letter into the re-cord during the Port of Coupeville’s April 10 meeting stating the board regrets that Abraham was offended by certain remarks made about his unattended visit to the port office in February.

“These remarks were made during a reg-ular monthly public meeting of the board on Feb. 13, 2013, and may have left the im-pression with the public that your visit was improper,” Bronson said during the meet-ing. “Moreover, these remarks were made after you had left the meeting and you were not given the opportunity to respond.”

He said the board noted that Abraham provided a detailed explanation of his ac-tions, and agrees that because of the access given by the executive director his visit in February wasn’t improper.

Abraham barely accepted the letter commissioners Bronson and Benye Weber sent to him.

“I thought it was actually pretty weak and disingenuous, but if there is no more damage, than I think the matter is re-solved,” Abraham said in an interview Tuesday morning.

He added that the issue was never about security.

He said the real issue was him question-ing the judgment of the commissioners for the Port of Coupeville.

He served on a volunteer committee that came up with recommendations about how the Greenbank Farm should operate once the current agreement with the Greenbank Farm Management group expires.

The commissioners for the Port of Coupeville did approve a resolution this month basically formalizing the public re-cords policies.

The port is going to post times that pub-lic records will be made available and those hours will be posted at the door of the of-fice and online at www.portofcoupeville.org, according to the resolution.

The resolution also states that people inquiring for information must be made by appointment only and “no member of the public may be granted unattended access to the port office without prior written ap-proval of the board of commissioners,” ac-cording to the resolution.

The port will also charge a fee of 15 cents per page for photocopies of public re-cords, but no fee will be charged for making public records available for inspection.

Commissioners Bronson and Weber ap-proved the resolution.

There are currently two members sitting on the three-member board. Former com-missioner Laura Blankenship announced her resignation last week.

Port regrets remarks made two months ago

Coupeville High School senior Katelyn Wynn, 18, loves history and performing.

On Saturday, March 9, she took first place at the Re-gional History Day competi-tion at Western Washington University with her dramatic presentation “Service Alter-natives and Deinstitutional-ization.”

Her project depicted the history of care for mentally disabled persons in our state starting in the 1950s when the Service Alternatives idea was born right here on Whid-bey Island. The motivation for the new approach was to train those with mental dis-abilities instead of locking them up in institutions.

Service Alternatives is a multi-faceted human services agency that supports individ-uals and families, providing a spectrum of services that include employment, residen-tial, foster care and school-based services, independent living support, consultation and training.

In her 10-minute presen-tation, Wynn played the part of an institutional nurse, a mother with a disabled child, a Service Alternatives trainer and a person with a mental disability.

Her first place win entitles her to go to the state History Day competition in May at the University of Washing-ton.

History Day advisor Wil-bur Purdue helped spark her interest in History Day when she was a freshman.

“History has always been my favorite subject,” said Wynn. “Mr. Purdue ex-plained that I could combine my love of history with the-ater, my two favorite things.”

“It was a lot more work than I expected,” she said with a smile.

In her sophomore year her project earned her a third place finish and a trip to the National History Day com-petition in Washington DC.

Wynn attended Oak Har-bor Schools in elementary and middle school; then she moved to Coupeville with her mother Robin Myers to begin high school.

Her father, Alan Wynn is a real estate appraiser in Oak Harbor where she still spends part of her time.

“I’ve got a big family,” said Wynn, noting that both her parents have remarried and added stepsiblings to the mix.

Mom Robin Myers runs the contracting business portion of the Camp Casey facility, and Katelyn has a part-time job working in the mess hall there. She’s visited Seattle Pacific University, which owns Camp Casey and will be her college next year, many times.

Both her parents attended SPU, and in fact Katelyn lived there with them in mar-ried student housing when she was a baby.

“It’s kind of our family school,” said Wynn.

She has already been awarded the president’s and alumni scholarship to SPU for next year. Wynn hopes to study journalism and politi-cal science with a goal of en-tering the broadcasting field.

“I’ve always been a news hound,” said Wynn. “My grandfather Al Wynn owns KODL radio station in The Dalles, Oregon, and I’ve taken a lot of field trips there and maybe I’ll get an intern-ship at the station this sum-mer.”

Through her participa-tion on the CHS ASB Ex-

ecutive Board, Wynn gained video making experience, creating one for Martin Luther King Day this year. Now she’s at work on a pro-motional video for Bayleaf owner and family friend Beth Kuchynka.

While at Coupeville High School, Wynn has acted in several plays, and currently has the role of Hippolyta in the CHS production of Shakespeare’s “A Midsum-mer Night’s Dream.”

Other CHS activities include National Honor Society, of which she is co-president, and serving as a student representative on the Coupeville School Board.

“I learned a lot from the school board experience about politics and policy, especially keeping a budget and spending money wisely for schools ” said Wynn. “I had to give regular reports on student activities and that helped me learn what it takes to be a leader.”

Wynn appreciates the leadership and learning op-portunities she’s had at CHS and is looking forward to new challenges next year at SPU.

“But Whidbey Island is definitely my home, and I’ll always come back,” she said.

Senior’s love of theater, history a winning combo

Katelyn Wynn’s 2012 History Day project was on “Kennewick Man.” In her dramatic presentation, she used this skull to rep-resent him. This year she’s competing in the State History Day competition in May after a first-place win at Regionals.

Sometimes it amazes me the things kids come up with.

In fact, I believe there used to be a television show devoted to the fun-ny things they say.

I don’t have any chil-dren of my own, but I’ve been blessed to have some pretty amazing little ones in my life.

Sometimes adults get caught up in the rush of life and kids just seem to go along for the ride.

But every once in a while they say something that has every adult in the room stop dead in their tracks.

Whether it’s something very profound indicating they are wise beyond their years, or something that just stops and makes you chuckle.

This weekend I was in the Olympia area visiting some very dear friends of mine.

My friends Kim and Jon have two girls — Emma and Ella.

Emma is 9 years old and Ella is 6. These girls have provided a lot of amusement over the years.

Several years ago we were talking about a mutual friend who was pregnant and Emma asks me when I was going to have a baby.

I told her that I needed to find a husband first.Her response: “No you don’t. Just adopt one from

Foster Farms.”She was dead serious.We still howl about that one.Emma has since grown and is wise beyond her years.Ella on the other hand provided a wealth of child-like

wonder this weekend.Driving back from a trip to the frozen yogurt store,

Ella breaks the silence with a question.“What’s adult supervision?” she asks.Kim replies, “Well, it’s when an adult has to watch

you.”Ella pauses for a moment.“Oh. I thought it was when adults have really good vi-

sion and lasers come out of their eyes.”Adult super vision — never thought of it like that.And then there was the early morning contemplation

over shoe size. If I wear a size 10 shoe and she wears a size 11, does that mean she has bigger feet than me?

We spent quite a while pondering that one.Since I don’t get to see them as frequently as I used to,

I look forward to those posts on Facebook sharing the girls’ current insight into the world’s inner workings.

It’s fun to stop and see the world through a child’s eyes.

Thankful for help of Coupeville seniorsEditor,

I’m writing to make an attempt at thanking a group of Coupeville High School seniors who helped me and my two children on Saturday, March 30. I didn’t get their names, but in the course of conversation, I learned that they had helped out at a mountain bike race at Fort Ebey, one was a participant in Sci-ence Olympiad, they were dropping a friend off on an early Saturday evening

My kids and I came up to camp at Fort Ebey from Bainbridge to camp for a night. It was a gorgeous day, and we took a long walk, ending up far down the beach with no apparent trail back up the bluff to the camp. We found our way to a long dirt road, which we knew to be south of the campground. The boys came by as we were making our way back to the highway, and when we flagged them down and told them our situation, they gave us a ride back to our campsite, saving us nearly four more miles of walking.

I’ve worked with youth for more than 20 years as a teaching artist and a mu-seum educator, and I can assure you that

I have seen a gamut of behavior. These are good guys.

I wanted to thank them for helping people from whom they stood to gain nothing, but for whom doing something simple and kind made a big difference. It is a wonderful trait to cultivate, and posi-tive reinforcement for teenage boys is so often in short supply.

Kristin TollefsonBainbridge

Excited for Class of 2013’s futureEditor,

I would just like to give a shout out to the all seniors at Coupeville high school. You all are so awesome and I’m going to miss each and every one of you when our time comes to go our separate ways.

Coming to this school as a new freshman student was scary and a huge change to me. But all were as happy and considerate then as you are now. You all accepted me and got me involved with so many fun things that I’ll remember forever.

It’s going to be difficult seeing all of

you leave and be far away from home, but we’re all moving on with our lives and setting out to be the people we’re planning to become.

It was such a blessing to me being able to spend my high school experience with you all and sharing memories that I’ll never forget. I love you all and I can’t wait to see what God has in store for all of you and what you’re going to become as you grow more and more.

day thanks to the many folks who chose to dine out that day, and it was a reminder of the many things Coupeville community members do to support students.

The foundation provides additional funds that allow students and staff to partici-pate in educational activities that might otherwise be be-yond the scope of the school budget. Thank you to Front Street Grill and their patrons for helping maintain this wonderful program.

Thankful for Ebey Forever Fund supportEditor,

On behalf of the Ebey’s Forever Fund, I want to thank our community for your ongoing commitment to preserving the rural working landscape and community of Ebey’s Reserve.

In Justin Burnett’s recent story, “Preserving History: Ebey’s Forever Fund contin-ues to support local pres-ervation efforts” he quotes Don Sherman as one of the first grant recipients and his praise for the founding spon-sors of the fund and efforts. Speaking on behalf of the trust board for the reserve, and amazing volunteer fund raisers- we thank you, the property owners, donors, and lovers of the reserve, for your contributions, commitment and efforts!

One of most inspiring aspects of the Ebey’s Forever Grant Program is the scale to which funds are matched and re-invested back into our community. By design, the program requires that funds be matched 1-to-1 by prop-erty owners.

However, to date Ebey’s Forever Grant dollars have been matched nearly 2-to-1 though additional financial support from property own-ers, as well as donated mate-rials and in-kind labor by the local and regional commu-nity.

This is incredible! It is a privilege and an

honor to be part of this effort and community. Thank you for your ongoing support of Ebey’s Forever.

Jan Pickard, chairEbey’s Forever Fund

There was no ‘backroom scheming’ Editor,

I was very surprised to read the accusation of “back-room scheming” in your piece in Thursday 11 edition. I am aware that Laura Blan-

kenship was once in charge at Greenbank Farm and that she was removed by the man-agement group.

When she was elected to be a commissioner of the Port of Coupeville I had as-sumed that her experience with the Greenbank Farm would prove useful. However the news reports have implied that her motive for election was revenge rather than a positive contribution to the port.

Was that what she was doing? Why did she so often propose unnecessary changes to the port’s processes and procedures?

Why did she vehemently defend an unauthorized entry into the Port of Coupeville’s computer after the work on the planning of the future of the Greenbank Farm had been completed?

The executive director, Jim Patton, has gone above and beyond the call of duty in trying to manage the two as-sets of the Port of Coupeville.

He has consistently over-come all of the challenges pre-sented such as water supply at the farm, storm damage to the Wharf, repair of facilities, and coping with abandoned sailing vessels that sunk near the wharf.

He has even under re-ported his hours to help maintain a balanced budget. He deserves the praise of the community. Neither he or the remaining commissioners de-served “backroom scheming.”

Robert Yule ElphickCoupeville

Commissioners right to rescind accusationEditor,

Port of Coupeville Com-missioners Marshall Bronson and Benye Weber finally signed letter of apology and retraction after they publicly accused me, behind my back, of an illegal and unethical re-view of public records.

They made their accusa-tions shortly after I ques-tioned the adequacy of the port’s review of Greenbank Farm finances.

Admitting that I did noth-ing wrong was the right thing for them to do, but it took my threat of a lawsuit to get them to do it.

They damaged a taxpay-er’s good name and reputa-tion and wasted taxpayer’s money on legal advice - all because they made state-ments that they knew or should have known were false.

When Bronson and We-ber first made their accusa-tions, they failed to mention that I had been given permis-sion to review records from the port’s executive director, Jim Patton.

Also, that he had instruct-ed others, including the ad-jacent shop owner, to let me in the office when he was not there. Commissioner Bron-son’s and Weber’s accusations were an inexcusable abuse of public office.

I did nothing illegal, un-ethical and as Commission-ers Bronson and Weber now admit, nothing improper. I looked at public records con-cerning public property. I will continue to do so.

Evidently, it was public scrutiny of the port’s actions that the two commissioners did not like.

Honesty takes a hit on Central Whidbey farmBy Nathan WhalenStaff Reporter

A rash of thefts is forcing a farm to close its stand that relied on the integrity of its customers.

Bell’s Farm, located on West Beach Road north-west of Coupeville, closed its honesty stand the evening of April 9 because of the continual theft of produce in recent weeks.

“We’ve had an uptick in thefts in the past three weeks,” owner Dorothy Mu-eller said. “It’s been going on since December.”

Bell’s Farm offers an honesty stand out of a 10-foot-by-20-foot building located on the farm.

The stand recently of-fered potatoes, vegetables such as swiss chard, beets and eggs from nearby 3 Sis-ters Farm.

Shoppers would simply select the produce they want and then drop the cash in a drop box.

Mueller said theft has al-ways been a minor problem, but it has increased during a

time of the year when there is a lower amount of traffic coming to the farm. When she’s only making several dollars and produce is disap-pearing from the stand, it was time to make a change. She kept the stand open year around and it provided some money coming into the farm during the winter months when the farm isn’t selling at local farmer’s markets.

The only time the stand closes is whenever high winds from the west buffet the area.

During the busier months in the late spring and summer, neighbors and higher traffic coming to the farm helps reduce thefts from the honesty stand.

Bell’s Farm currently comprises 60 acres located between Coupeville and Oak Harbor. In addition to the produce, it also sells strawberries, which will be ripe enough to pick some-time in June.

The honesty stand isn’t the only place where shop-pers can find Bell’s Farm produce. When the stand

closed, Mueller said she moved the available produce to 3 Sisters Market, which recently opened at the old San de Fuca fire house. Mar-

ket staff sells items grown by local farmers in addition to their grass-fed beef.

Bell’s Farm also sells out of a booth Saturdays

at the Coupeville Farmers Market, which opened ear-lier in April and it will sell at the Oak Harbor Public Market which takes place

every Thursday starting in mid-May.

Mueller said she may re-open the stand in a couple weeks.

Annual coop tour Saturday

The fourth annual Whid-bey Island Coop Tour will offer visitors some of Whid-bey’s best, funniest, funkiest and most beautiful chicken enclosures.

Six Whidbey Island poul-try keepers will open their farms and backyards to the public on Saturday, April 20, to show off their coops and unique fowl. The Rock’n Doodle 4-H Poultry Club is organizing the tour.

Celebrities will thrill on this self-guided tour as visitors meet the Mayor of Whidbey 2012 (a speckled Sussex rooster) and Mick Jagger (another rooster) while viewing innovative designs such as A Crooked Coop straight from a Dr. Seuss book, the Chicken Condo with a view, three hillside coops built by three brothers, moveable ‘chicken tractors’ and a coop with metal roof and electricity that is so attractive it is often mistaken for a guest house.

Visitors will also pick up practical ideas like using recycled materials, captur-ing and directing rainwater to poultry, automatic door openers and waterers, and have questions answered about poultry health and

care from 4-H members and coop owners

The tour goes from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and tickets and tour maps for $10 per person or carpool are available after April 1 at Bayview Farm and Garden at Bayview Corner, and Skagit Farmers Supply in Freeland and Oak Harbor.

For more information on

the tour look on Facebook (Rock’n Doodle 4-H Poultry Club) or email [email protected]

Proceeds from this event will go towards the club’s community educa-tion efforts, barn improve-ments at the Island County Fairgrounds, and to Island County 4-H.

Christophers helps school foundation

A fundraiser takes place at the end of April to ben-efit students in the Coupe-ville School District.

Dine at Christopher’s on Whidbey Tuesday, April 30 and 10 percent of the day’s proceeds will be donated to the Community Founda-tion for Coupeville Public Schools.

The April 30 fundraiser marks the third restau-rant in 2013 to help local schools. Ciao held an event in February and Front Street Grill held an event in March.

Money raised goes to fund mini-grants that help pay for projects in the class-room, scholarships for stu-

dents and to help students in need.

Christopher’s on Whid-bey is located at 103 NW Coveland St. near historic downtown Coupeville.

Leak prompts repairs, closes Greenbank FarmBy Nathan WhalenStaff Reporter

A leak prompted Greenbank Farm officials to turn off a water main Monday that supplied lo-cal businesses, basically forcing most to shut down for the day.

Greenbank Farm of-ficials said the leak was located behind the barn that houses several art gal-leries and the offices for the Whidbey Camano Land Trust. Officials estimated around 10 gallons a minute was flowing Friday out of the leak located under the back parking lot, said Judy Feldman, manager of the Greenbank Farm. She said a repair crew wasn’t able to start work until Monday morning.

“We’re just really sensi-tive to the potable water system and the leak was getting quite intense,” Feldman said. Businesses stayed open through the

weekend. The water was flow-

ing to the surface through a seam in the parking lot. Workers had to pull up part of the asphalt and then dig down to reach the water main.

She notified businesses operating at the farm that the water would be turned off Monday so repairs could be made. The work was finished later Monday afternoon.

“There just wasn’t an-other choice,” Feldman said of the decision to shut off the water.

Greenbank Cheese and Artworks gallery remained open Monday, while the other galleries, Whidbey Pies Cafe and the Green-bank Farm wine shop closed.

She said the leak came from a joint in the PVC pipe, which was likely in-stalled in 2004 when the newest building at the farm was constructed.

The Greenbank Farm is supplied by a well that is located in the woods lo-cated at a higher elevation north of the agricultural fields.

While work was com-pleted to repair the water leak, Feldman said she is concerned about what ap-pears to be another leak yards away from the last one. It, too, was seep-ing through a seam in the parking lot asphalt.

She didn’t know yet how much the repair will cost. Because the repairs concerned the infrastruc-ture at the Greenbank Farm, the Port of Coupe-ville will likely have to pay the costs.

Coupeville’s Lauren Bayne of the Island Fly-ers earned a first-place medal at the Wash-ington Association of Tumbling and Trampo-line Championships in Renton April 6.

Five other members of the Flyers, all from Oak Harbor, also fin-ished among the top five in individual events.

Winning state titles is becoming a habit for Bayne, 13 and a seventh grader at Coupeville Middle School. This was Bayne’s fourth trip to state and third champi-onship.

This time around she won the Level 6, Divi-sion 13-14 (age) trampo-line crown.

Bayne added a sec-ond place in Level 6, 13-14 double mini and a fourth in Level 5, 13-14 tumbling.

She said she wasn’t ner-vous because of her past state experiences and considered herself one of the favorites in her events.

Teammate Paris Quinn, 11, was the only other Flyer to take a title, winning the Level 4, 11-12 tumbling event.

2 memorials set to honor Meche

Two memorial services will honor Oak Harbor High School graduate and former Coupeville High School volleyball coach Kim Meche, who passed away April 11 after a long battle with cancer.

The first service is 2 p.m. Sunday, April 21, at Stevenson High School, where Meche last worked as an ad-ministrator. The service will be in the gym at 390 NW Gropper Road.

The second service is 3 p.m. Saturday, April 27, at the First Re-formed Church in Oak Harbor.

Meche, who was a three-sport star at Oak Harbor High School, played volleyball as a setter for George Fox University (Newberg, Ore.) from 1985-88 and set several school records. She was voted the team’s co-Most Valuable Player in 1986 and 1988.

Tennis team gets back to winning

After a two-match skid, the Coupeville High School tennis team resumed its winning ways with a 5-2 triumph at Granite Falls Tuesday,

April 9.The Wolves were especially

tough in singles, sweep all four con-tests: 1, Amanda d’Almeida won 6-2, 6-3; 2, Allie Hanigan won 6-2, 6-0; 3, Iris Ryckaert won 6-2, 6-1; Emily Gallahar won 6-4, 6-1.

In third doubles, McKenzie Bai-ley and Sydney Autio won 6-2, 6-3.

The Wolves dropped the other doubles matches: 1, Holly Craggs/Julia Myers lost 7-6(9-7), 6-2; 2, Breanna Koym/Maureen Rice lost 6-1, 7-5.

Coach Ken Stange said “I had no idea what to expect from Granite this season. They have been tough on us over the past few years.”

Coupeville (5-2) journeys to Lakewood for a 3:30 p.m. match Tuesday.

Stone’s 3 wins pace track team

Makana Stone had a hand (or foot) in three of Coupeville’s four wins at a four-team track meet at Sultan Thursday.

King’s won the boys meet with 102 points. Sultan scored 67, Cedar-crest 65 and Coupeville 21.

The Knights also took the girls meet, edging Sultan 89-86. Cedar-crest scored 43 and Coupeville 37.

Stone, a freshman, won two individual events (100, 13.63; 400, 1:03.72) and joined Marisa Etzell, Anna Bailey and Kirsten Pelroy to win the 4x400 relay (4:30.69).

Fellow freshman Sylvia Hurlburt took the 200 (28.72).

The boys grabbed two seconds,

both by junior Nick Streubel (shot put, 43-09.75; discus, 125-07).

The Wolves host their only home meet of the spring at 4 p.m.today, April 18, when South Whidbey comes to Mickey Clark Field.

Lack of offense leads to 2 losses

Offensive struggles led to a pair of losses for the Coupeville High School baseball team.

Zander Clouse tossed a five-in-ning one-hitter as Archbishop Mur-phy beat Coupeville 11-1 in Everett Wednesday, April 10.

Then, Granite Falls’ Riley Lar-son and Xavier Denke limited the Wolves to five hits in the Tigers’ 8-0 win in Granite Falls Monday.

Against Murphy, the Wolves’ only hit, a single by Aaron Curtin, drove in their only run.

Clouse struck out nine and helped out offensively with three hits and four RBI. Coupeville coach Willie Smith called Clouse the best pitcher his club has seen this spring.

Smith said, “It was an interest-ing feel to the game, we were more focused and had much more energy [than the previous game] but made too many ill-timed errors and didn’t get the little things done to put us in a position to win.”

Granite Falls (3-8, 3-10) entered Monday’s game with only two wins but scored in five of six innings to steadily pull away.

Smith said his team “came out flat” and Granite Falls took advan-tage.

He added, “We just had poor ap-proaches at the plate – too passive.”

Kurtis Smith recorded two of the Coupeville hits, one a double.

Josh Bayne got the start for the Wolves and “didn’t pitch poorly, just no support offensively,” coach Smith said.

The Wolves (4-8, 5-8) travel to Granite Falls for a 4 p.m. game Friday.

Soccer team falls in shootout 1-0

This is a habit the Coupeville High School soccer team would like to break.

The Wolves suffered another close loss, falling 1-0 to Lakewood in a shootout Friday at Mickey

Clark Field. Two days earlier, Coupeville lost at home to fifth-ranked Cedarcrest 4-0.

Half of Coupeville’s 10 losses have been by one goal, and two of those came in shootouts.

The latest heartbreaker came to Lakewood (7-2, 7-2-1), one of the conference’s top teams.

The Cougars’ goalkeeper Sam Roe made two saves in the shootout and scored a shootout goal to lead Lakewood.

One positive of the match was Kole Kellison and company record-ing a shutout during regulation, a first for Coupeville this season.

The Wolves had several scoring opportunities, according to coach Paul Mendes.

Nathan Lamb nearly scored in the first half off a “nice passing play,” Mendes said.

In the second half, Luke Pelant’s header went just wide of the left post, then Josh Wilsey’s short shot was “blocked on a great defensive effort by Lakewood,” Mendes said.

In regard to Cedarcrest, Mendes said, “We showed more offense and had some good looks at their end in both halves. They are a deep, top-level team, and we kept it close for most of the game.”

He added, “We are continuing to close the gap, and if we keep work-ing hard, some breaks will come our way.”

Coupeville (0-9, 0-10) entertains Sultan (2-7, 3-8) at 6 p.m. Friday.

Coupeville High School junior Breiss Potter spent a week working as a page in Olympia for State Sen. Barbara Bailey. Potter was one of 26 students serving as Senate pages during the 2013 legislative session.

Coupeville junior pages for State Senator Bailey

Briess Potter, a junior at Coupeville High School, spent a week working as a page for the Washington state Senate in Olympia. Potter was one of 26 students who served as Senate pages for the 12th week of the 2013 legislative session.

The Senate Page Program is an oppor-tunity for Washington students to spend a week working in the Legislature. Pages, like Potter, are responsible for such tasks as transporting documents between offices as well as delivering messages and mail. Pages spend time in the Senate chamber in addi-tion to attending page school to learn about parliamentary procedure and the legislative process.

“I enjoyed learning about how the Legis-lature works,” Potter said. “I never imagined I would have so much insider access this week. Sen. Bailey was so nice. She even in-

terviewed me for her weekly video update. I now know I want to go into politics.”

10th District Sen. Barbara Bailey, R-Oak Harbor, sponsored Potter for the week.

“I am proud to be able to offer students an up-close and personal look at the Legis-lature,” Bailey said. “Briess was a pleasure to sponsor this week. She is a prime example of the next generation of Washington’s lead-ers.”

Potter enjoys serving as a student council member, participating in the Science Olym-piad and being a National Honors Society member. She is the daughter of Carrie Ken-nedy and Lloyd Potter of Coupeville.

Junior high/middle school and high school students who are interested in the Senate Page Program are encouraged to visit www.leg.wa.gov/Senate/Administration/PageProgram/

CalendarFrom page 9

Whidbey General Hos-pital will join hundreds of health care organizations around the country May 1 when it starts converting to a computerized Electronic Medical Records (EMR) system.

EMR will provide one comprehensive medical re-cord, accessible to all provid-ers, with the goal of making patient care safer, more effec-tive and better quality.

The idea is that when all providers can access the same information it lessens

the likelihood of repetitive procedures and medication errors.

Patients may also benefit from quicker service and less paperwork.

The transition is not sim-ply automating an existing record-keeping system. EMR aims to improve virtually every aspect of health care, from scheduling an appoint-ment to filling a prescription to going home after surgery.

Moving from paper-based medical records, spread around in many dif-

ferent locations, to one com-prehensive electronic record, is not a one-time event. Rath-er, it is an unfolding process that will occur at Whidbey General and affiliated clinics between now and the end of the year.

The hospital has been preparing for this transition, but staff do expect some de-lays during the process.

They advice patients who have appointments at the hospital in May, please plan on spending 15-30 minutes longer than usual.

Live the Island Dream…

Vibrant nutritious pet diet is key to growth

Sarah Sharp & Chance at Whidbey Natural Pet store.

Cold, cold go away, come back…next winter. Although not out of the clear yet, the signs of spring have returned. There is a buzz in the air. The bulbs are up and their flowers ready to welcome the return of the birds and bugs. The night is full of the song of the frog. Soon we will close the chapter on winter sleep, and open a new one for the growth of spring.

The foundation for positive growth is a strong base. A vibrant nutritious diet is the base for health. At Whidbey Natural Pet our job is to educate, and help you make a strong informed decision when it comes to feeding your chosen animal companions. With costs going up, we are here to help you keep feeding healthy meals, while not going broke. Incorporating raw meaty bones and fresh foods is a great way to offer nutritious whole foods that are enjoyable to your pet, while saving money. When you remove the processing, you remove a lot of the cost.

A healthy diet can improve a myriad of health problems afflicting our pets. Dry skin, hot spots, allergies, fleas, obesity, bad breath, excessive shedding, the list goes on and on. We are here to help you strengthen the base, in order to fully enjoy the coming season of light, warmth, and FUN with your pets.

Our own growth has included new, carefully selected products to add to our base of healthy options. As always we focus on products being produced close to home that offer our pets a healthy and fun life. We have also expanded our selection for your backyard flock. We offer basic flock

equipment, and a great selection of feeds, treats and healthy supplements to keep your birds happy and producing healthy eggs.

Stop in and use our self serve dog wash. Our low price is always $10, which includes shampoos, conditioners, ear cleaners, grooming tools, towels and a dryer. Everything you need to take home a clean, fresh smelling dog after your walk on the beach, and that wonderful encounter with rotting material in the sand.

And if you mention to us that you read this, we will lower the price to $5. You can’t beat that! Here’s to a wonderful Whidbey Island Spring. We hope to see you soon!

He was one of a half dozen or so volunteers who gave up their Monday afternoons to remove several patches of the inva-sive weed. Greenbank Farm Manager Judy Feldman said the plants are quite invasive, some people have horrible allegoric reactions to them and they can become a fire hazard when con-ditions become dry.
