County planner Shireene Hale laid out the initial version of the county’s new wetland regulations at a Sept. 8 town hall meeting. Hale and Orcas county council members Patty Miller and Richard Fralick fielded a barrage of ques-tions from concerned citizens.

“The reality is, you are respon-sible to determine whether or not there is a wetland on your prop-erty,” said Miller.

The county’s existing regula-tions require uniform 35 to 150-foot wetland buffers based on wetland category. The proposed regulations are more tailored, con-sidering variables such as develop-ment intensity, wetland sensitivity, wetland importance, location rela-tive to UGAs and site slope.

The new wetland regulations, part of the county’s critical areas ordinance update, were due in 2006 under Growth Management.

Orcas Fire and Rescue respond-ed to a record number of calls over Labor Day weekend.

“We always anticipate that Labor Day weekend has the potential for being a busier time because of all the additional tourists and all the activities,” said Division Chief Patrick Shepler, who was the only duty officer on call from Friday through Tuesday morning. “But we were quite surprised that in the four days we had 30 calls.”

Responders traveled all over the island for what were primar-ily medical emergencies. Incidents included an allergic reaction, a laceration, a second degree burn,

two single vehicle car crashes, a fall, a dislocated arm of a six-month-old, someone in a ditch who turned out to be resting, two possible strokes, a ruptured disc, a neurological emergency, and a life-threatening internal hemor-rhage.

“Out of all those 30 calls, we handled all of them on island except for four,” Shepler said. “It’s the busiest Labor Day weekend we have ever had on Orcas.”

Two fires on Sept. 2On Friday, Sept. 2, firefight-

ers fought a structure fire in Sea Acres. The single family residence sustained damage in the kitchen

area from a probable electrical fire.

Responders received a call that same night about a boat blaze in Deer Harbor. The engine room of a 35-foot Bayliner caught fire while docked at the Deer Harbor Marina. Responders were unable to save the vessel “Today,” which sunk and was later towed to Cayou Cay Marina by Vessel Assist. It was

hauled out by Michael Durland of Deer Harbor Boatworks.

Owner Mark Redis says the fire likely originated with an electrical short in the engine room.

The Coast Guard was notified and arrived minutes after the first Orcas firefighters. The Redis fam-ily had left the boat half an hour

On the hottest day of the year, the Orcas Island Vikings blew the top off the emotional thermometer that was the 2011 Island Cup.

“This was a game for the ages,” said coach Mark Padbury.

Playing in his first game as fullback, junior Jake Zier was not to be denied as he slammed his way into the end zone from 3 yards out, giv-ing the Vikings an incredible 20-15 win against the Friday Harbor Wolverines with 18 seconds remaining.

The Vikings started strong, taking the open-ing kickoff 85 yards, culminating in a 29-yard touchdown pass to Devon Stanzione nine min-utes into the game. Orcas recovered an on-side kick and took control again, driving the ball to the 3-yard line after a 27-yard catch and run by Herbie Sisson. With their backs against the wall and Orcas firing on all cylinders, the Wolverines set the tone for the battle ahead on the very next play. An interception in the end zone was returned to midfield, breathing new life into the squad from Friday Harbor.

The Wolverines tied the game at 5:40 in the second quarter with a 20-yard touchdown pass. A bad snap by the Vikings gave the Wolverines a safety and a two-point lead early in the third quarter. With temperatures reaching into the 90s on the Dahl Field turf, both teams were

feeling the pressure and fatigue. A 75-yard bomb to Stanzione shocked the Wolverines with 9 minutes gone in the third quarter, giving the Vikings a 13-9 lead.

The teams traded possessions as the tension built steadily into the fourth quarter. On what would prove to be their final drive, the visitors pushed an exhausted Orcas defense back. With just 2:23 left in the game, a 32-yard touchdown pass on 4th and 10 to C.J. Woods over tight coverage by the Orcas secondary gave the Wolverines a seemingly insurmountable 15-13 lead.

The Vikings gathered on the sideline before the final drive. The team dug deep and began a drive that will go down in the annals of Island Cup lore. Finding themselves 70 yards from the

end zone with the clock running out, quarter-back Robbie Padbury completed a 25 yards pass to Stanzione. An incomplete pass was followed by a pass interference call that gave the Vikings 15 precious yards and a first down. A bad exchange left the Vikings in dire straights fac-ing a second and 30. A 10-yard pass to Keenan Phalan stopped the clock with 45 seconds left. Another pass interference negated what would have been a game-clinching interception for

On the first day of school last Wednesday, a crowd gathered to witness the grand opening of the ele-mentary building, renovat-ed this summer with money from a Washington State Department of Commerce grant – secured with help from Rep. Jeff Morris – and a bank loan.

Joshua Izakson, Captain USAF, of Orcas Island has returned home shortly after his transfer to his new squadron at Elmendorf Air Force Base outside Anchorage, Alaska.

In the air, Captain Izakson has been upgraded to Aircraft Commander of the AWACS E-3 aircraft. On the ground, he has been promoted to the position of Flight Commander.

For five years, he served at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City with the 965th Airborne Air Control Squadron and flew the AWACS Sentry aircraft. Upon his departure in June, he was awarded the Air Force Commendation Medal. Included in the citations for “Meritorious Service” were his three foreign deployments. He is about to deploy again with his new squadron.

Additionally, Captain Izakson was cited for flying 17 missions in support of coun-ter-drug operations, enabling eight air-to-air intercepts.

Captain Izakson just flew a three nation mission (U.S., Canada and Russia) out of Elmendorf Air Force Base for coordinated terrorist defensive training.

He has completed his Masters Degree with “Highest Academic Distinction” for his 4.0 grade average. Captain Izakson graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in 2004 and plans a full career in the Air Force. He is the son of Carmen and Dubi Izakson of Orcas Island.

Islanders pay tribute to those lost in 9/11 attacks

Colleen Smith Armstrong/Staff PhotosOrcas Island Fire and Rescue held a memorial ceremony on Sunday, Sept. 11, the 10th anniversary of the World Trade Center attacks. Pictured above left is Fire Chief Mike Harris. At right is Lieutenant Chad Kimple with his son Isaiah.


The state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction recently released “report cards” for Washington state public schools.

Orcas High School’s class of 2010 had an 81.5 percent “on-time” (four-year) grad-uation rate, with a 94.3 per-cent graduation rate when five-year grads were includ-ed. OASIS high school had rates of 30.8 and 33.3 per-cent, respectively.

Encompassing both schools, the Orcas School District was calculated to have less-than-glowing graduation rates of 65 per-cent and 78.9 percent, respectively. Washington state averages are 72.7% and 80.7 percent, respectively.

Orcas Schools Superintendent Barbara Kline says the report card emphasizes rigid timeliness at the expense of perhaps plodding but persistent suc-cesses.

“There’s a saying, ‘All kids can learn, but it might take some of them longer,’” said Kline, citing kids who take a roundabout route and earn their GED instead of a high school diploma.

“We celebrate them, but the state calls them drop-

outs,” she said. “I think that’s too bad.”

Kline added that many of the kids helped by OASIS have struggled with health problems that prevent them from attending traditional classes. She said some move to Orcas to work after drop-ping out of high school, and realize they can still earn a GED or diploma. Others have been home-schooled or focused on studying unique

interests instead of fulfilling graduation requirements on time.

“We’re very pleased with OASIS and we’ll continue to run it,” said Kline. “We support kids until they’re 21. We do an incredible service for these young people by giving them a chance to fin-ish.”

The OASIS high school expects roughly 30 students this fall.

Remembering 9/11 Thank you to the EMTsI’m not the first person to note

that when life gives you lemons thank God for the lifesaving Orcas EMT group. Suddenly I was faced with a life threatening illness and the amazing Orcas EMTs got me out of here and on a helicopter to St. Joseph’s in Bellingham. I am for-ever indebted to: Jennifer Corbin; Chad Kimple, Mik Preysz, Lindsay Schirmer, Ben Schmitz, and Dirk Swierczynski.

They are Orcas Island heroes, as are all the members of our wonder-ful EMT group.

What a communityUntil I moved to Orcas, I never

experienced anything like the com-munity we have here. I recently attended two fun, heart-filling ben-efit events.

First was the benefit for Morgan Meadows and her family. Those who attended the evening of poet-ry, music and munchies at the Odd Fellows Hall were very generous, with their donations and with bid-ding on silent auction items from artists and small business owners in our community. We raised a little over $1,000 and Morgan was able to pay her mortgage this month. I know what it’s like to be sick and still have to work. I’ve been very upset by all the foreclosures across the country, and when I learned about Morgan’s situation I thought if I could help one person avoid foreclosure, it would be Morgan.

The second benefit I attended was the Chili Cook-Off to raise funds toward a cure for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), hosted by Suzanne and John Olson. They provided a lovely afternoon of fabulous food, lively camaraderie, and live music by some of our talented local young musicians. All of the chilis, provid-ed by chefs from several fine Orcas eateries, as well as by Suzanne and John, were delicious!! We judged them responsibly, took our time, cleaned our palates between tast-ings, and went back for a second or third taste when necessary. It was a great time and for a great cause.

I lost my Aunt Judy to com-plications from MS a couple of months ago. She lived with the

disease for more than 30 years. A good friend on Orcas, Jim Allan, has such an advanced case of MS that he needs round-the-clock care and is facing the loss of his house due to the expense of that care. Jim has brought his unique gift to our community, hosting festive Robbie Burns Suppers in Deer Harbor and keeping many of us in stitches with jokes via email.

I feel such gratitude for the sup-port of our community and for being in a position to help friends in need.

Concerns about storm water work

As pertains to the storm water treatment facility under construc-tion behind the Village Green, these are my concerns:

1.) I feel the public has not been adequately informed or included in this plan, though it has been in the works for a long time.

2.) The forest root system and natural balance it created was already doing a service to the earth as a natural filter for our human excesses. This project may destroy the existing wetland, interrupting an ecosystem of countless living creatures in the process. Why are so many trees being taken down? I worry that this may be the result: a barren landscape that will dry out in summer, get overgrown with weeds if not maintained, and pos-sibly cause a leach of pollutants when flooded by the rains come autumn ... How well will this site be cared for after construction is completed? Why such an extreme act? Wouldn’t it be better to assist

nature by less harmful and intru-sive measures?

3.) An aesthetics committee was formed of several professionals in the community who work with the plants and land here on the Islands, including people who worked on the Stage on the Green. This group was invited to review and comment on the plans. Most were opposed to the projected course of action and shared many questions, criti-cisms, and suggestions. Thanks to the hard work of these individuals, Public Works made some conces-sions on the plan, including saving a few important habitat trees. But did this group really have any say on what is happening here in our town?

4.) During the coming rainy sea-son there will be little root system left to filter the storm water flow. What is the plan to prevent pollu-tion during the duration of proj-ect completion? In a major storm event, what if the finished system cannot handle the water?

5.) Most importantly, is this con-struction setting a precedent for more development in Eastsound, where so many business spaces already sit vacant?

We all need to take this issue into deep consideration and learn from it. Our community and our earth deserve better than this.

Editorial

W hat were you doing on Sept. 11, 2001?Some of us were at work. Others were in school or hang-ing out with friends or traveling on vacation.

Whatever you were busy doing when the news hit, your world immediately stopped in its tracks. The violence, the loss of life, the global implications – it was devastating. This past Sunday marked the 10-year anniversary. Orcas Fire and Rescue had its new artifact from the Twin Towers on display: a six-foot long, 750-pound “I” beam. Fire Chief Mike Harris hopes to have it part of a permanent memorial by next year. It was a somber day for all who attended, particularly for Orcas Fire and Rescue volunteers, who consider fire service a national brother- and sisterhood.Every year when the anniversary comes, we bow our heads, think of the nearly 3,000 people who died and feel great sad-ness. But what about the other 364 days of the year? How do we honor those who have passed?We ask you to cherish as many of your days as possible. Life can change in a matter of minutes with one act of violence, one glance away from the road, one errant blood cell. Love those who are important to you. Appreciate the joy in life. Celebrate living in honor of those who have died. Our time here is fleeting; use it wisely.We were all doing something different on that day 10 years ago. But our grief was universal, and we hope our healing can be too.

utmost importance to vot-ers on Orcas Island. Here is the link: http://news-ite.sanjuanislander.com/island-newshome/more/education/584-graduation-rates-range-from-67-to-93-in-county.

The story read: “One third of OISD students don’t graduate from high school according to figures released by the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction.”

Compared with gradu-ation rates on San Juan (93.4%) and Lopez (79.4%), Orcas results are dismal.

Vast amounts of money have been given to this dis-trict over the years, yet these results speak volumes. With a levy in November and two more in early 2012 (M & O and Technology) and given the low graduation rate, it’s clear that more money to this district is not the solu-tion.

Janet KnowlesEastsound

Clarification of graduation stats

At the OSPI (Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction) website, the most recent statistics on test scores and gradu-ation rates have now been released. These have caused some questions about the on-time graduation rate for the Orcas Island School District. On-time gradua-tion rate is the percentage of students who actually grad-uate in the year that they are expected to graduate, which is their fourth year of high school.

There is also an extended graduation rate for districts and schools for students who graduated within two years of the year in which they were expected to grad-uate. You can find these rates and other statistics about schools around the state at: http://reportcard.ospi.k12.wa.us/summary.aspx?year=2010-11.

The Orcas Island School District has two high schools, each with a differ-ent on-time graduation rate. These statistics are reported

by OSPI for the school year 2009- 2010 as:

• 91 percent Orcas Island High School on-time rate

• 14 percent OASIS High School on- time rate

• 67 percent district on-time rate

OASIS High School enrolls a wide range of stu-dents. It is an alternative school in the best sense of the word. Some of the students earn a diploma in the year that they are expected to do so. Some earn their diploma a year or two later. Some earn a diploma in the same year they turn 21, which is the last year in which a student can be served by a public high school.

Some OASIS students earn a GED, which we cel-ebrate as an accomplish-ment but the state counts as a drop out. Some leave to go to work or to attend classes at a two- year college or other program and may never earn a high school diploma.

We are very proud of the students and staff in both OASIS High School and Orcas Island High School. They are very different schools. =However, staff at both schools share a com-mon goal, which is to help students meet their person-al educational goals. Very wonderful young people who will go on to be very wonderful adults attend both of these schools.

I apologize to anyone who was confused by the gradua-tion rate numbers and hope that this letter is helpful.

Thanks supporting the MS bike ride

The first annual Chili Cook-Off and Extreme Croquet Tourney for MS was a great success! You can check out photos from the Chili Cook-Off at http://goo.gl/5qqh4.

We had nine chili recipes to taste, including excellent pots from celebrity chefs Bill Patterson of Chimayo, Everett Brooks of Fire Smokehouse and Grill, Mia Kartiganer of Mia’s Cafe and Lisa Crowe of the Lower

Tavern. It was a tough com-petition, but in the end Jazz Banducci took home the first place trophy with her vegetarian chili; Kylar Townsend came in second with his New Mexico white chili and Lola Pederson & Brandon Banducci came in third with their moose, tri-tip and ghost pep-per chili. Thanks to all the community businesses that supported the event: Fire, Chimayo, Mia’s, The Lower, The Kitchen, Maple Rock Farm, Roses Bakery, Chappy’s Septic Service and Ace Hardware.

Despite the extreme nature of the croquet course, a hot day and too many yellow jackets, a few hearty players mastered the croquet course, with Elijah Byron taking home the first place trophy, followed by Jami Mitchell and Merrick Banducci. Thanks to Dave, River and John for provid-ing beautiful live music, thanks to all of the chili tasters who joined us for the event and thanks to those who couldn’t but made a donation anyway. Special thanks to Gary Abood of Chappy’s Septic Service who not only donated the use of a port-a-pottie, but forgave us when an old cherry tree finally gave up its 100-year hold and fell on it the fol-lowing morning.

We collected $1,245 for the National MS Society - and it’s not too late to make a donation (http://main.nationalmssociety.org/goto/SuzanneOlson). The ride is Sept. 10-11 and our families’ pedaling will be fueled by the grace of your generos-ity, support and love. Thank you for your support!

LETTERS FROM 4 Thank you for Land Bank support

The Renew Our Land Bank Committee wishes to thank 2,659 voters who signed the petition to put the renewal of the Land Bank on the ballot. Their recognition of its good work was inspiring. The Land Bank will expire in 2014. The Land Bank works on long-term goals – renewal in 2011 will improve its ability to maximize its resources.

Voting ‘Yes’ to renew the San Juan County Land Bank means voting for the success of our communities. The Land Bank is a proven per-former that preserves beau-tiful views, open farmland, natural landscapes, habitat for wildlife and walking access to cherished places. The Land Bank increases the value of living in the islands and thus the eco-nomic health of San Juan County. Our local economy benefits from the preserva-tion of our unique environ-ment in many ways.

Funded by a one percent tax paid by the buyer when real estate is purchased in the county, the Land Bank is designed so those who come here help pay to pre-serve these special places. Finances are responsibly managed with low overhead (6 percent on average) and hundreds of volunteers. Partnerships with other agencies leverage Land Bank funds: 23 million dollars extra in just the last five years from agencies such as the San Juan Preservation Trust, the Orcas Island Community Foundation, Ducks Unlimited, and many other groups.

We need the Land Bank in the future when opportu-nities arise to provide public access, to save scenic views, to secure farmland for actu-

al production, to make trails for our well-being, to pre-serve historic places, to pro-tect sensitive habitat and to keep the outstanding char-acter of the San Juan Islands alive and healthy. Go to www.RenewOurLandBank.org for more information.

We, the Co-Chairs of the Renew Our Land Bank Committee, truly believe the Land Bank is a gift to ourselves and to future gen-erations. It’s a success. We urge you to vote “Yes” to renew the Land Bank.

Wooden boat fest a success

The Rowing Race had more than the usual num-ber of participants and was a flash of excitement, kicking off the start of the fun. The race ended at Deer Harbor Boatworks and signaled the beginning of the dinner.

The music by Mark Minkler and Pals set an excellent ambiance with a great mix of fiddle, guitar,

accordion, and piano. The food was once more a fan-tastic mix of wild salmon and local and organic pro-duce excellently prepared by the Jones Family Farms and crew. Boundary Bay kicked in some brew and the Bassets were once again on hand with the Barquins to add support and consis-tency to the fun time.

Marc Broman and the Deer Harbor Marina staff once again provided excel-lent service and support to the boaters. The boats this year were stunning against the clear blue skies. There were lovely classic sailing vessels and well maintained power yachts of varnished beauty.

The race day started with-out a breath of wind, but the racers ended up having a perfect day of sailing.

We thank all who par-ticipated and facilitated this year’s (and in our opinion the best ever) Deer Harbor Wooden Boat Rendezvous. With your help and contri-butions they were the most wonderful days of summer.

before the flames were spot-ted; they received a call about the emergency while eating dinner. A quick-thinking bystander had towed the burning vessel away from the dock and into the nar-row channel, where it was then anchored.

When Redis and his wife and their 15-year-old daughter returned, they dis-covered that their beloved 10-year-old African Gray Parrot named Esa was trapped on board. The boat was heavily involved at that point, and firefighters deemed a rescue attempt to be futile.

“No one was hurt and there was no environmen-tal or property damage, but losing my wife’s bird was the worst part of the whole thing,” Redis said.

Shepler said a handful of spectators at the marina were “concerned why fire-fighters were not putting continuous streams of water on the burning boat.”

“There are always three over-arching goals on every incident, and in this order of importance: life safety,

incident mitigation and property conservation,” Shepler said. “This vessel had about 50 gallons of gasoline aboard. We were concerned with protecting the marina, other boats and with protecting the environ-ment. We could have mixed too much water with gaso-line and had a running fuel fire that would endanger the marina and the envi-ronment.”

The Islands Oil Spill Association set up a 600-foot oil protection boom to stop chemicals or debris from drifting into a nearby estuary. After a preliminary investigation by the Coast Guard, it appears that no petroleum products were released into the water. Redis says it was a stroke of luck that he didn’t fuel up before leaving his slip in La Conner.

“I have never gone away for the weekend without filling up my boat with gas before leaving the dock,” he said. “But that Friday I was behind schedule, and I knew I had enough gas to get there. So when the boat caught on fire there was 50 gallons of fuel rather than 175.”

you want to do on your property,” said Hale.

Development intensity is determined first, based on parcel size and the percent-age of the parcel that would be developed.

Each intensity has a uniquely sized “develop-ment range.” For low inten-sity development, that area is a radius of 80 feet sur-rounding the proposed building site. For “medium intensity” it’s 225 feet; for “high intensity,” 300 feet.

The development range will be checked for wetlands using both the county’s new Possible Wetlands Map, and observations of standing water for more than 14 con-secutive days during a year.

“If there [are no wet-lands within that area], then you’re done,” said Hale.

If wetlands are indicated, the property owner must provide a wetland delinea-tion and report. Each wet-land will be evaluated and assigned a uniquely sized protective buffer – ranging from 15 to 300 feet – with-in which development is strictly limited. Buffer sizes can be increased by existing driveways or roads.

Citizens expressed con-cerns about potential costs. Realtor Stu Stephens said the threat of a 150-foot wetland buffer has “killed the value” of a property he is trying to sell, with two recent offers withdrawn.

“I have deep regrets about what we are doing to the ... ‘have-nots’,” said Martha Farish, saying that property owners who need to sell but lack the cash for wetland delineation could receive much lower sale offers due to uncertain land use poten-

tial.One attendee said the tai-

lored approach will com-plicate county property value assessments and pre-cipitate appeals of taxable value by property owners. Others asked whether prop-erty taxes will be adjusted to reflect lost use value.

“We need to have a pub-lic groundswell to say, ‘You take my property rights, reduce my taxes,’” said one man, to loud applause.

Fralick responded that the county assessor must adjust his value assessments based on allowable use. Another attendee asked if the county would reimburse property owners for lost value, as it would if eminent domain were exercised to build a road.

Hale replied, “There is no money to reimburse you.”

Port of Orcas commis-sioner Bret Thurman said the entire Eastsound airport is considered a wetland on county maps. Hale respond-ed, “If there is a wetland under the asphalt, it’s still a wetland.”

Legal appeals contest-ing the final regulations are likely if county citizens believe property rights have been trampled or that the measures are insufficient to protect critical habitat.

“We are trying to bal-ance opposing forces here, and we’re trying to walk this line,” said Fralick. “If we have appeals, the county will have to find the funds to defend itself.”

There may well be law-suits from both general directions when the final edits hit the cutting room floor.

Friday Harbor. Instead the penalty moved the ball to the 23 yard line and a first down with 32 seconds left. The Vikings stunned the Wolverine defense with a 21-yard pass completion to Stanzione to the 2-yard line. As the clock ran down below 20 seconds Zier ran into Island Cup history with the game-winning touch-down.

Stanzione ended his day with 8 catches for 192 yards and 2 touchdowns. Padbury was 12 for 26 and 362 yards passing.

“I want to commend Friday Harbor for such a well-played game and rec-ognize our guys for perse-

vering and sticking together through very adverse con-ditions,” said Vikings head coach Scott Harris. “The offensive line had a monster game for us. They dominat-ed in that final drive giving Robbie (Padbury) the time and space he needed to find our receivers down field at a crucial time. We would have never won that game without Randall Boetger, Di Mowery, Cameron Schuh, Tyler Jensen and Mikail Van Maren.”

The 1888 Crow Valley School has been operated as a local museum by its own-ers Richard Schneider and Albert “Bud” McBride for more than 20 years.

Open Wednesdays and Saturdays dur-ing the summer months, visitors have been charmed by a peek at the authen-tic one-room school house, which was typical in isolated San Juan communities more than a century ago, when as many as 47 youngsters from the thriving orchard community attended there.

Earlier this year, Schneider and McBride donated the property to the Orcas Island Historical Museum. The donors will be on island this weekend, and OIHM would like to take this opportunity to honor them.

Join the Museum Board and volun-

teers on Sunday, Sept. 18 at 12:30 p.m. for a dedication, followed by a short open house.

In addition to the old school itself, the Crow Valley School Museum also houses a collection of photos and information about other county schoolhouses, includ-ing other historic schools on Orcas and the Port Stanley School on Lopez.

The Crow Valley School Museum is located on Crow Valley Road, next to the north Turtleback Preserve trailhead, about 2.5 miles from Eastsound.

There is uneven ground leading up to the steps and no wheelchair access. Check with parking attendant for parking instructions.

For additional information, call the Orcas Museum 376-4849.

PETS OF THE WEEK


Three men and one woman earned the top spots at the 13th Annual Steve Braun Memorial Triathlon.

Thomas Roseberry, Jim Clevenger, Mark Drangsholt and Marti Riemer-Vargas were the winning athletes at the event on Sept. 4 at Moran State Park.

The triathlon included a .4 mile swim, 15-mile bike ride and 3.5-mile run around Cascade Lake.

The team winners were: Dan Borman Team (Borman, Wilkins, Hellar), Team M (Donovan, O’dell, Heller) and Go Like 60’s (Stevens, Roseberry).

“The weather could not have been bet-ter for athletes or volunteers,” said Michel Vekved of Friends of Moran, which orga-nized the event. “Some say Cascade Lake was warmer than they remember in past years.”

More than 80 racers participated with the support of 18 volunteers from Friends of Moran and many onlookers who cheered the athletes across the finish line. Next year’s event is scheduled for Sept. 2.

All funds raised from the triathlon will go towards a new play structure at the Cascade Lake day use area. The Friends of Moran hopes to finish raising funds for this com-munity park project and begin installation work in October. Read more about the play structure at www.friendsofmoran.com.

“The continuation of this triathlon is a tribute to the memory of Steve Braun, a man who loved his community and real-ly enjoyed getting outside to play in our magnificent natural surroundings,” Vekved said.

Can there be such a thing as a good loss in volleyball? Ask Coach Gregg Sasan after the Orcas Viking Volleyball team lost their season opener 3-1, in a non-league match at Charles Wright

Academy last Friday. “We lost a close, hard-

fought match to a bigger school that won their league last year,” said Sasan. “It’s never fun to lose. But I saw some things tonight that we can build on – good passing, positive commu-nication, and some seri-ous scrappiness – all things we’ve been working on in practice. We’ll need all that and more as we take on Darrington and La Conner at home this week.”

The Vikings will build on the tough defense of Tika Zbornik in the back row, who kept the team in rally after rally as she turned away the opponent’s attacks.

Senior middle hitter Kathryn Tidwell and out-side hitter Jenna Tully each had an outstanding night pounding the ball from the front court.

“We’ll take what we learned from this match and keep growing,” Sasan said. “If we continue to work hard on our game in practice, the matches will take care of themselves.”

Island LivingOne man Two guvnors

by COLLEEN SMITH ARMSTRONGEditor/Associate Publisher

I t’s one of Britain’s most popular plays and it’s coming to Orcas Center.

Although the actors won’t be standing on center stage, audience members will get up close and personal with the live production as it streams in high definition on the center’s 24- by 13-foot screen.

“With this technology, you feel like you are in the live theatre experi-ence,” said Orcas Center director Kara O’Toole.

National Theatre Live’s production of “One Man, Two Guvnors” will be streamed on Thursday, Sept. 22 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets prices range from $9 to $15.

O’Toole says the play will be “cap-tured” live and then broadcast for Orcas viewers a few hours after its London showing.

Orcas Center’s HD screen debuted in June with the Metropolitan Opera’s “Summer in HD” series. O’Toole says it was very well received.

“What I enjoyed the most is that some people came to see it because their

friends dragged them there, but they left a new opera fan,” she said. “It’s not ‘just opera.’ Because it’s being filmed, you have the intimacy of the cameras coming in close. It has many more lay-ers. Lots of folks tried to come as many times as they could.”

The new Met opera season begins in October and the center will be show-ing a total of 12 throughout the year.

“The busi-ness that we contract with manages the Metropolitan Live trans-missions and they’ve just i n t r o d u c e d this National Theatre Live,” O’Toole said. “We thought, ‘how great, we start-ed with opera and they were really well received. So let’s expand it to the theatre offerings.’”

“One Man, Two Guvnors” has songs by Grant Olding and is based on “The Servant of Two Masters,” an Italian comedy written in the early 1700s. Fired from his skiffle band, Francis Henshall becomes a bodyguard to Roscoe

Crabbe, a small time East End hood now in Brighton to collect big money from his fian-cee’s dad. But Roscoe is really his sister Rachel posing as her own dead brother, who’s been killed by her boy-friend Stanley Stubbers.

Holed up at The Cricketers’

Arms, the perpetually ravenous Francis spots the chance of an extra meal ticket and takes a second job with one Stanley Stubbers, who is hiding from the police and waiting to be reunited with Rachel.

To prevent discovery, Francis must keep his two guvnors apart.

“In Richard Bean’s English version of Goldoni’s classic Italian comedy, sex, food and money are high on the agen-da,” according to the play’s website.

James Corden plays Francis and the production is directed by National Theatre’s Nicholas Hytner.

The Daily Express, Guardian, Sunday Times, Daily Telegraph, Evening Standard, The Times, and Time Out all gave the play four stars.

“It should be really, really great,” O’Toole said. “It had a sell-out run in London.”

O’Toole says Orcas Center wants to make the live streaming available to the entire county, so the showings coincide with ferry schedules.

“It’s really been a great way to have something happening almost all the time at the center,” she said. “That was a goal of mine upon taking this job: to pump up the visibility of the center so people knew it was where they want to go to get their art fix. This digital expansion allows us to do that in a low-risk way.”

Their goal is to establish radio contact with all 39

Washington counties.“It’s a way for amateurs

to try and keep their oper-ating skills up,” said Mike

Mikuchonis of Lake Tapps, Wash., whose wife Gail is from Olga’s Willis family.

Mikuchonis and a hand-ful of other amateur radio operators will meet at the Willis family’s Woodside Farm on Sept. 17 and 18 to take part in the Washington Salmon Run or QSO party.

Ham radio operators from across the state, the nation and sometimes from other countries will attempt to contact Washington coun-ties as part of the contest.

Prizes of smoked salmon will be awarded for the top performances. Contestants will be using single side band, morse code and vari-ous digital modes.

The small group meet-ing at Woodside Farm will include members from the Mike and Key Club of Seattle and the Radio Club of Tacoma, which is cele-brating its 95th year.

“There are not a whole lot of amateurs in San Juan County to get,” said Mikuchonis. “We’re com-ing up to make San Juan County, and particularly Orcas Island available.”

He said ham radio opera-tors often play a key role during emergencies or extreme weather situations, stepping in to provide com-munication with emergency responders when power, phone or cell phone service is inoperable.

The event will run on Saturday from 9 a.m. to midnight and on Sunday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Since Newton, scientifically minded people have thought of Earth as a lonely rock orbiting an average star in a universe where no place is special. But modern cosmology gives us a completely new picture based on dark matter, dark energy, and the drama of cosmic evolution.

Nancy Abrams and Joel Primack, co-authors of The New Universe and the Human Future: How a Shared Cosmology Could Transform the World, explain this new picture with stunning astronomical videos and relate it to life on Earth, suggesting ways of understanding the global issues of our time in their cosmic context.

Join the authors for a book signing at Darvill’s on Sept. 17, 3-4 pm and following the presentation at the Orcas Center.

The Orcas Center is presenting an inno-vative collection of new works from more than two dozen artists. The show opens on Oct. 7 from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the lobby and Madrona Room.

Kevin Dickey will layer in live music dur-ing the event utilizing a unique medium of his own: his crystal singing bowl.

The group of artists includes Emily Aring, Sadie Bailey, Ali Boe, Osa Caudill, Andrea Cohen, Khadoma Colomby, Satya Curcio, David Densmore, Kevin Dickey, Dwight Duke, Erica Ekrem, Chuck Greening, Marguerite Greening, Jorgen Harle, Erika Harlow, Carlin Hayworth, Kt Hendrie, Stephanie Iverson, Deborah Jones, Zackaraya Leck, Jeff Ludwig (aka Uncle Junk), Jennifer Posada, Sebastian Posada, Susan Slapin, Deborah Sparks, Winfred Taylor, Judy Tepley, Jasmine Townsend, and

Kyler Townsend.“Please come and enjoy a gorgeous eve-

ning filled with local alternative art, music, and conversations with the artists them-selves,” say organizers. “Make a night of it and stay for the Orcas Horns and Nouveau Stride, playing at the Orcas Center directly following the art opening.”

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

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