State championship.That was the goal of the Coupeville High

School baseball team as it approached its first game in mid-March.

Not unrealistic, not cliché. The Wolves returned eight starters, all multi-year letter-men, and its entire pitching staff from a team that finished third in the Cascade Conference in 2013 behind 2A powerhouses Archbishop Murphy and Cedarcrest.

Four years ago, this group won the state Junior Little League crown.

Then this season started. On April 7, Coupeville owned a 3-5 record and was closer to the league cellar than a state pennant.

And things appeared to be getting worse. The Wolves soon lost their starting short-stop to a season-ending injury and their No. 2 pitcher developed shoulder problems and couldn’t take the mound.

Turned out, however, that the struggling team and not the bold prediction was the mi-rage.

The Wolves rattled off seven wins in their final 11 regular-season games and built mo-mentum for the postseason.

Coupeville jumped through the first two playoff hoops, winning four of five postseason games. First the Wolves finished second in the district tournament, then they took third in the tri-district. Those wins landed Coupeville in the state tournament.

The tri-district victories came Saturday, May 17.

The Wolves won a 1-0 heart-pounder over Overlake/Beak Creak in eight innings at Bell-ingham’s Sehome High School, then claimed third place by stopping Charles Wright/Life

Christian Academy 6-3 at Meridian High School later that afternoon.

Third was the best Coupeville could ac-complish at tri-district after finishing second in the district tournament last week. Two dis-trict champions, South Whidbey and Bothell’s Cedar Park Christian, were automatically placed in the tri-district title game. Cedar Park won 5-2 Saturday.

By placing third, Coupeville earned its first state trip since 2008 and a short ride to Ana-cortes. The second and fourth seeds from tri-district (South Whidbey and CW/LCA) travel to Castle Rock, and the fifth seed, Overlake, journeys to Moses Lake.

The Wolves (14-10) will play eighth-ranked Evergreen Conference champion Rochester (16-6) at 10 a.m. Saturday, May 24, in a loser-out game. If they win, they will play the win-ner of Cedar Park Christian (18-2) and Ho-quiam (15-8) at about 4 p.m. for the regional

title. The regional champ qualifies for the final four in Yakima and will play May 30 and 31.

Discussions halted on harbor tours at the wharf

See STATE page 7

By Megan HansenEditor

A Coupeville man’s ambition to start a harbor tour business out of the town’s wharf hit a snag.

Patrick Kelly proposed starting Heav-enly Harbor Tours and began negotiating with the Port of Coupeville early this year. After back and forth discussions, the com-missioners are no longer responding to his requests to come to a lease agreement, Kelly claims.

The proposed tour business would operate hourly harbor tours highlighting Coupeville’s history. It would also serve as a water taxi to and from the Captain Whidbey Inn.

The commissioners presented what they said is a “best and final” offer of $300 for moorage, which would be waived for the first year, and a $1 per head passenger charge.

Kelly’s standing proposal is for a $300 moorage and no per-passenger fee.

“The fee was negotiated down and down and could never get low enough for him,” said Tim McDonald, executive director for the Port of Coupeville. “Moorage was dropped from $700 to $300. Mr. Kelly didn’t find that ac-ceptable. At this point it’s up to (him.)”

During discussions with Kelly, the board of commis-sioners drafted and passed Resolution No. 191, which stipulates the port will col-lect a $1 per head passenger fee for any vessel embark-ing from the wharf. The fee is not imposed on commer-cial boats bringing passen-gers from a port other than Coupeville, such as the Victo-ria Clipper, or vessels serving in a nonprofit capacity.

Kelly said he is opposed to the per-head fee because it does not fit into industry standards and is not competi-tive in the market place.

McDonald said while drafting the resolution he initially proposed a $2 per- head fee.

“I’m constantly looking at getting the budget sustain-able,” he said.

Kelly said when compar-ing the port’s offer to other venues in the area, it’s just not competitive. He said he’s asked the port to show him their research, but has yet to see any. Tour companies that operate out of Deception Pass and Port of South Whid-bey do not charge per-head fees, he said.

One of the issues taken

into consideration, McDon-ald said, is that the port pays a lease fee to the Department of Natural Resources for the water underneath the wharf dock.

Because the wharf is used mostly for recreational purposes, it falls into a lower lease rate.

McDonald said that ev-ery time the port signs a new lease, it must send the lease to DNR for review and the port’s payments could in-crease.

“We’re not in the business of making money, but we’re not in the business of spend-ing more than we take in,” McDonald said.

Since drafting the resolu-tion, the port has signed two lease agreements with Jerry and Mark Saia for their sail-ing business. They were of-fered the same terms as Kelly.

While he said he thinks it’s great to see commercial enterprise operating out of the wharf, Kelly said the busi-nesses differ from his.

The boat Kelly is purchas-ing seats 14 people and he plans on running 10 tours a day, 12 in peak season.

In peak season, if he ran at maximum capacity, Kelly could be paying more than $5,000 a month in passen-ger fees. He said the smaller sailing businesses don’t serve as many people and the fees probably won’t impact them as much.

He also has more over-head costs because of the size of boat he will be using.

“As soon as you go over six passengers things change

and the Coast Guard gets involved,” he said. “There are more regulations and certifi-cations involved.”

He said his investment in starting the business will be upwards of $100,000.

During discussions, com-missioners suggested Kelly just tack on the $1 to his normal fee, but he didn’t like that idea.

“I’m trying to do some-thing that’s more affordable for people,” Kelly said. “Ev-ery dollar you raise the price is going to effect ridership. For the business to be sus-tainable, I need more traffic.”

Since the final offer stand-off, Kelly said he has since gone back to the port to open discussions again, but to no avail.

In what Kelly said is the last email correspondence he’s received from a port commissioner on the issue, Commissioner Bill Larsen said the board had presented its best and final offer and it was up to him to choose.

“The board is commit-

ted to economic growth and development as well as maintaining the historic heritage of all our holdings,” Larsen wrote. “Our decisions are based on what’s best for the port, the waterfront, the community and our business partners. .. It is my belief that we have spent significant and adequate time in arriving at our decision.”

Kelly said if he can’t get the commissioners to reopen discussions, he has two op-tions.

“I have the choice to sell the boat and bag the deal or go somewhere else,” he said.

Lynda Eccles, executive director for the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce has followed the discussions and Kelly’s efforts to start the business.

“One of the No. 1 ques-tions we get is, ‘Do you have boat tours?’” she said. “I was excited when the idea was first presented.

“I was excited we were possibly going to be able to offer it.”

TOURS: Port, business owner come to standoff

Greenbank Farm is one of the many places on Whid-bey Island that offer the op-portunity for dogs to walk off-leash, but it also invites people to walk without dogs to explore all the farm has to offer.

Public conversation about “bully dogs” in the off-leash area prompted farm officials to seek ad-vice on general dog/hu-man etiquette on trails from FETCH!, WAIF and a pro-fessional dog trainer.

Because dogs can give its owner clues about how they are feeling and what might be about to happen in an interaction, the farm is offering a workshop with lo-cal companion dog trainer, Carol Gannaway, 9 a.m. to noon Saturday, May 24.

Designed for anyone who walks the farm or is think-ing about doing so, it is lim-ited to humans.

Participants will first watch a presentation on a

wide variety of dog pos-tures and behaviors, and then head out to the trails to observe how they show up there.

The farm wil also host a “Poo Pick Up Party” 9-11 a.m. Thursday, July 17. Bags and gloves will be provided, with prizes awarded for the most pounds picked up.

Patrick Kelly wants to start a tour business in Coupeville.

By Megan HansenEditor

Whidbey Island resi-dents will gather in Coupe-ville Saturday to celebrate and honor those who have served in the military.

Coupeville’s annual Me-morial Day Parade starts 11 a.m. on South Main Street and ends at Coupeville Town Park.

Lynda Eccles with the Coupeville Chamber of Commerce said there are currently 75 entries, repre-senting 52 organizations.

Beth Kuchynka from bayleaf is this year’s grand marshal, having won the business leadership of the year award through the chamber.

“I am excited,” she said. “It’s a huge honor.”

The parade will also include two World War II vets, a Model A car club and Whidbey Cruzers.

Volunteers from Gifts from the Heart food bank is once again entering its “drill team.”

The team will perform along the parade route with shopping carts, collecting food donations at the same time.

“They aren’t a high-precision drill team, but

they have fun,” said Molly Hughes, food bank presi-dent.

The parade will start at the intersection near Prairie Center and run the length of Main Street, turn-ing onto Front Street and Alexander Street and then Coveland, ending at the town park.

Navy Band Northwest will be playing at the end of the parade, welcoming people into the park with Coupeville Mayor Nancy Conard and Capt. Mike Nortier, commanding of-ficer of Whidbey Island Na-val Air Station.

After a remembrance ceremony, Central Whid-bey Lions will be grilling up free hot dogs and giving out soda starting at 1 p.m.

Whidbey Island Band will be at the park to give a musical salute.

For Eccles, the Memo-rial Day celebration is a special time.

“Watching the start of the parade give me an amazing sense of pride,” Eccles said. “It’s the whole celebration — honoring those who have served. It’s a community event, and island-wide event.

“That’s what makes it such a special event.”

The granite grave marker of one of Whidbey Island’s most influential early pio-neers rests in a family plot surrounded by a white picket fence and fir trees.

It seems only fitting that in this section of Sunnyside Cemetery reserved for early settlers, Isaac Ebey’s remains are interred not far from an overlook that provides a sweeping view of the prairie that bears his name.

Or are they?Ebey’s life, and more

specifically his death, is the subject of most curiosity by guests greeted by Sally Straathof at the Jacob Ebey House, which serves as a visi-tor station along the Ebey’s Prairie Trail in Coupeville.

Straathof will begin her sixth season working as his-torical interpreter for Ebey’s Landing National Historical Reserve and also will serve as a Memorial Day Heri-tage Tour guide at Sunnyside Cemetery Monday.

She and local historian Roger Sherman will take guests on the one-hour tour starting at 1 p.m. Passes, which cost $5, are available at the Island County Histori-cal Society Museum and also may be purchased at the tour.

When Straathof encoun-ters visitors at the Jacob Ebey

House, the historic home of Isaac Ebey’s father located a short walk from the cemetery, questions often center around Isaac’s tragic death.

Ebey arrived on Whidbey Island in 1850 as one of the is-land’s first permanent settlers and quickly rose to promi-nence, becoming a candidate for Washington territorial governor.

But those dreams ended in gruesome fashion, Aug. 11, 1857, when he was shot and beheaded at his home near Ebey’s Landing by a party of northern Native Americans in retaliation for the death of a chief and other tribal members.

Ebey’s headless remains were buried on a family plot on the property, located a short distance from the pres-ent day Ferry House.

“Everybody in the Ebey family was buried there until the opening of Sunnyside Cemetery in 1865,” Straathof said. “It was presumed the bodies were exhumed and taken to Sunnyside. We don’t know that for sure.”

Sherman has his doubts.“I have a little trouble be-

lieving they’d go down with a shovel and dig the bodies up,” Sherman said. “I just kind of wonder if they moved the monuments.”

The cemetery, its history and its lore, are near and dear to Sherman, whose family

has been involved with its management for more than 90 years.

Sherman is approaching 80 and looking to step down from his role as cemetery commissioner at the end of the year.

As a local historian and longtime tour guide, he’s cutting back those responsi-bilities, too, and passing on wisdom to Straathof.

They’ll combine efforts Monday, sharing tales and bringing pioneer history to life with their words.

About 2,500 people are buried at Sunnyside, Sher-man said, including most of the island’s prominent early settlers.

Lilac trees surround a family plot of Coupeville

founder Thomas Coupe.The oldest marker at the

cemetery belongs to Winfield Ebey, Isaac’s brother, who was buried in 1865. It was his death that prompted the fam-ily to create a new graveyard on the hill that would later

become Sunnyside Cemetery, named after a family farm in Pennsylvania.

“Everybody wants to be buried on the hillside,” Sher-man joked. “But if they’re buried, they can’t enjoy the view very much.”

Port may need to reconsider newly set passenger fee

For several months commissioners with the Port of Coupeville have been discussing the potential lease of a new harbor tours business.

That business, Heavenly Harbor Tours run by Patrick Kelly, would feature hourly historic tours of Penn Cove and also could be utilized as a water taxi to and from the Captain Whidbey Inn.

At maximum capacity, the boat could seat 14 people per tour, with as many as 12 tours each day.

Kelly said his business model has tickets running about $25 for the tour, but in the beginning he plans on offering discounts and deals to build ridership.

There’s no doubt that, if successful, this harbor tours business could bring in viable business revenue to the community.

The problem is, the port and Kelly can’t seem to agree on lease terms.

The port is set on terms of $300 a month moorage, waived for the first year, and a $1 per head passenger fee.

Kelly is set on $300 a month moorage and no passen-ger fee.

His reasoning is no other marinas in the area charge a per-head fee — not Deception Pass and not South Whid-bey.

Port officials said they’re not in the business of making money, but they aren’t going to spend more than they can take in and turning the wharf into a commercial enter-prise will increase their expenses.

Seemingly, the two parties seem to be fighting over $1. But those dollars do add up.

Kelly claims he could be paying the port more than $5,000 a month in passenger fees during the peak season.

For a small starting business, that does seem like a lot.Kelly said he is still hoping to come to an agreement

and is even willing to consider the per-head fee if com-missioners can show him their reasoning.

The problem is, commissioners are set in their final of-fer and aren’t open to further discussions.

While commissioners say they are here to support eco-nomic development in Coupeville, shutting down discus-sions on a potentially thriving business doesn’t seem to be the way to this.

We understand that the port has two historic entities to manage and maintain. We fully encourage the port’s efforts to tighten its policies and procedures and find ways to increase revenue to become a thriving enterprise.

But shutting down potential business and revenue be-cause someone questions the justification behind certain charges seems counterproductive.

In an effort to show it is supportive of new business, the port did offer to waive moorage for the first year.

In a show of further good faith, perhaps the port should reopen discussions and be open to considering a cap on the passenger fee.

Thanks for another great water festivalEditor,

The 23rd Penn Cove Water Festival is now history and the board is already looking to next year’s event on May 16, 2015. 

After months of diligent planning and endless hours donated by staff and volunteers, there’s a feeling of over-whelming pride to see the festival in all its dimensions bring a special day of life and liveliness to our historic Front Street. 

This year’s event was a tremendous success and as president of the Penn Cove Water Festival Association, I want to express bountiful appreciation to all who contributed to this ongoing tradi-tion.

From the opening ceremonies to the closing dances by the Tshimshain Haayuuk Dancers, from the strains of a Native American flute to canoes gliding through Penn Cove, from prairie tours to face painting, there was something for everyone. One participant even admitted to eating three salmon tacos.

While this festival has deep roots in our community’s history and is a cel-ebration of our heritage, it continues to bring locals and tourists together in a contemporary setting where we can re-flect on beautiful Penn Cove as it was in the 1930s when Native Americans came together for canoe races and camarade-rie. Today, we are the fortunate ones who can still enjoy, remember and experience this history.

The creative collaboration involved in putting on such an event is typical of the community where we live and thrive.

It enables us to once again feel a special pride in our local town, civic organiza-tions, service clubs, local media and the many dedicated individuals who made this a grand success.  We also acknowl-edge and thank the Native American entertainers and vendors, as well as the environmental groups that participated.

It is impossible to mention all who contributed to the success of this festival in this letter. As plans are underway for next year, we need new volunteers for committees. Please reflect on this year’s festival and get involved so that 2015 will be the best ever and it can continue into the future. Please check our website at penncovewaterfestival.com for a complete list of our fantastic volunteers, our mis-sion, our history and contact informa-tion.

Just when you thought it was safe to sit under the fruit trees, tent caterpillars have been spotted on the island and they’re getting ready to chomp, chomp, chomp their way through your orchards and landscaping.

Now that I’ve got your attention, take a deep breath and try to relax. Tent caterpil-lars can be a certifiable pain in the neck, but they don’t spell the end of the world – or the end of your garden.

Western tent caterpillars are the larvae of the moth Malacosoma californicum. On branches of mostly de-ciduous trees they’ll lay grey masses of eggs that winter

over until around first bud break.

That’s when the tiny lar-vae begin to weave their web-by communal homes in the crotches of tree branches.

If your fruit trees are small enough, you can some-times find the egg cases and remove them before the eggs have a chance to hatch. From July to early spring look for grey, crusty masses encircling small branches or patches on larger branches and scrape them off.

The tents are small and sometimes hard to spot when they’re new, so examine your trees well. They love the lo-cal red alder trees, but look for them on fruit trees or any other deciduous trees. I’ve found them on roses, flower-ing red currants and cato-neaster too, so don’t assume they’ll stick to their usual haunts.

They start out small and black, but as they grow they develop a dotted white stripe

down the center of their backs with a lot of yellow-gold on either side.

As they plump out to about two inches in length, their tents will also grow to accommodate their expand-ing girth. Each morning they’ll venture out to feed on the leaves of their host trees and march like army ants across your deck railings and fences.

Only one generation is born per year, but their total numbers will increase and decrease over successive years in anywhere from a three to seven year cycle.

Some years it seems like a plague of biblical proportions with creepy crawlies dotting the grass like dew drops; other years their tents are few and far between.

The weather and tempera-ture can be limiting factors in caterpillar populations, as well as a parasitic wasp that loves to lay its eggs on the cat-erpillars’ heads.

Even in “plague” years the damage they inflict is usually more of an aesthetic nuisance than a real threat. However, for many people the ick factor alone can be enough to war-rant their control

If you can reach the nest, remove it branch and all and dispose of it, or you can squish it.

This is sometimes enough to collapse the colony. If you attack them in the early morning when they’re all still in bed, even better.

If you spray BT, or Bacil-lus thuringiensis, as a biologi-cal control, know that it will kill all caterpillars, not just the ones you want to get rid of. You must spray as much of the foliage as possible be-cause they need to eat a lot of it to get sick and die.

If you decide instead to use a contact insecticide, be sure you’ve read and un-derstand the directions and warnings on the label and spray it only on the tents, and

do it in the early morning when you can get them all.

Finally, don’t set the nests on fire while they’re still in the trees.

Admit it, you want to do it. I know you do.

Live the Island Dream…

By Jim WallerStaff Reporter

Coupeville High School is leaving a positive mark in the postseason as it enters the heart of the playoffs.

The Wolves’ baseball team earned a spot in the state tournament with two wins at tri-district Saturday. (See page 1 for details.)

The softball team quali-fied for tri-district by placing fourth in the district tourna-ment last weekend in Sedro-Woolley.

In track, Makana Stone continued lowering her school records as the Wolves competed in the district meet last week at Lynden Christian High School.

Coupeville took home two fourth-place finishes in district tennis, and golfer Christine Fields qualified for her third consecutive tri-district meet.

Wolf softball team heads to tri-district

The Coupeville softball team placed fourth in the dis-trict 1A playoffs, thus earn-ing a berth in the tri-district tournament which will also be played at Sedro-Woolley’s Janiki Playfields.

After losing to Lynden Christian 15-7 in the open-ing round Friday, Coupeville qualified for tri-district by defeating Meridian 6-2 Fri-day and Nooksack Valley 3-2 Saturday.

With a tri-district slot guaranteed and short on pitching, the Wolves dropped the game for third and fourth place 20-4 to Blaine Satur-day.

At tri-district, Coupeville will play the No. 3 seed out of District 3 at noon Saturday,

May 24, in a loser-out game. If the Wolves win, they will need to win one of the next two games (2 and 4 p.m.) to advance to the state tourna-ment.

In the win over Meridian, Coupeville slugged 12 hits, including four doubles.

Emily Coulter finished 3-for-3 with a double; Maddi Strasburg had two doubles; Hailey Hammer and Madi Roberts collected two hits each; and McKayla Bailey doubled.

Bailey threw a complete game and retired the final 11 Trojan batters.

The defense was the hero as Coupeville locked up a tri-district berth with the win over Nooksack Valley.

Bailey battled through a sore, weary arm to strand 10 Pioneer base runners and her mates helped by turning three double plays.

The game fittingly ended on a twin killing. Monica Vidoni, after catching a fly ball, fired a perfect one-hop strike to third baseman Em-ily Licence to gun down the runner trying to advance.

Hammer led the offense with two hits, including a double and RBI; Messner added two singles and a run batted in; and Coulter had an RBI double.

In the loss to Blaine, walks by relief pitchers fueled two big innings for the Bor-derittes.

Coupeville collected only three hits: a double by Bailey and singles by Hammer and Messner.

Against Lynden Chris-tian, Strasburg blasted a bases-loaded home run and Emily Licence hit a two-run double in the first inning.

In all, the first 10 Coupe-

ville batters reached base as the Wolves scored seven runs. From there, the offense recorded only three more hits and failed to score.

Stone again lowers school 400 record

Four girls and one boy from the track team placed

in the top five at the district 1A meet at Lynden Christian Friday and qualified for the tri-district meet.

The first day of tri-district begins at 4 p.m. Thursday, May 21, at King’s. The meet wraps up Saturday beginning at 11 a.m. The top five finish-ers in each event earn berths in the state meet.

Stone sliced three-tenths

of a second off her school 400 meter record at district, placing second in 59.35. She also placed second in the 200 (26.87).

Sylvia Hurlburt finished fifth in the 100 (13.31) and fourth in the 200 (28).

Stone and Hurlburt teamed with Lauren Grove and Marisa Etzell to nab fourth in the 4x200 relay (1:50.23).

For the Coupeville boys, Jared Helmstadter ran fifth in the 400 (54.79).

Thorne/Ginnings, Hanigan nab 4th

Singles player Allie Hanigan lost 7-5, 7-6 to Abbie Steele of Nooksack Valley in the second day of the tour-nament Friday, May 16, in Coupeville to finish fourth.

Hanigan won two of three matches Tuesday, May 13, to set up the match with Steele.

In doubles action at South Whidbey Friday, Jacki Gin-nings and Wynter Thorne fell to a duo from Blaine 6-3, 6-3 and placed fourth.

Tuesday, Ginnings and Thorne lost their opening match but recovered to win two straight, including a vic-tory over the No. 2 seeded squad.

“They had a pretty im-pressive tourney, if you take into consideration that they were the eighth-seeded team,” coach Ken Stange said.

Fields on pace for another state trip

Fields, who qualified for the past two state tourna-ments, overcame a rough first nine holes at the district tournament at the North Bellingham Golf and Coun-try Club Thursday, May 15, to qualify for the tri-district tournament.

Tri-district was Tuesday at Bremerton’s Golf Mountain Golf Course; results were not available at press time. The top 16 at tri-district qualified for state.

District was played with a shotgun start, and Fields shot a 58 on holes 4 through 12. She settled in on the second nine, carding a 43 to finish with a 101 to place 10th.

nounce made it official during the candidate filing period, which ended last Friday.

Grone, the second in command in the treasurer’s office, said she knew she may face termination by running against Treasurer Ana Maria Nunez, who hired her three years ago. The position is at-will and she can be terminat-ed without cause.

But she felt strongly that change was needed in the office and faulted her boss for being unresponsive to the public and not having a strong work ethic.

Nunez said that Grone’s decision to run against her and not tell her ahead of time shows that she can no longer trust her.

“The chief deputy posi-tion is one that requires loy-alty. It’s someone who is the confidant of the elected offi-cial,” she said. “It’s someone I need to be able to trust.”

A third candidate, Coupe-ville resident Christa Canell, also entered the race. She works at Land Title and Escrow.

Nunez is a Democrat. Her two challengers are Republicans.

Coupeville resident Becky Wagner filed to run against Island County Auditor Shei-lah Crider. Wagner is an independent and Crider is a Republican.

Wagner is the financial di-rector at Senior Services of Is-land County and formerly the chief accountant at the Skagit

County Auditor’s Office. As expected, four Repub-

lican and one Democratic candidates have filed for the District 3 commissioner po-sition abandoned by Kelly Emerson.

The Republican candi-dates are Camano resident Aubrey Vaughan, Oak Har-bor resident Rick Hannold, Camano resident Marc Hennemann and Camano resident Kelly Bagley.

Karla Jacks, a Camano Island resident, is the sole Democratic candidates.

County Assessor Mary Wilson-Engle, County Clerk Debra Van Pelt, Coroner Robert Bishop, Prosecutor Greg Banks, District Court Judge Bill Hawkins and Sher-iff Mark Brown are all run-ning unopposed.

State Rep. Dave Hayes, a Camano Island Republican, has attracted three challengers for his 10th district position.

Oak Harbor resident Da-vid Sponheim and Mount Vernon resident Nick Petrish are running as Democrats

Oak Harbor resident Brien Lillquist filed to run against Hayes as a Republican.

Rep. Norma Smith, a Re-publican from Clinton, has two challengers. Camano Is-land resident Michael Scott is running as a Libertarian.

U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Arlington, also has one challenger. Mike Lapointe of Everett is running as an inde-pendent. Marysville resident B.J. Guillot is a Republican.

pitching effort by Ben Etzell.Etzell threw a complete-

game three hitter, striking out 12 and walking five. Nine of the strikeouts came with runners in scoring po-sition as he pitched out of trouble in each of the final four innings.

Overlake’s biggest threat came in the seventh. Three walks, the last intentional, loaded the bases with one out, bring up the top of the Growler order. Etzell then fanned the next two batters, the last on a nail-biting 3-2 pitch.

Overlake pitcher Matt Kaiser matched Etzell zero-for-zero until the eighth. He pitched a four-hitter, struck out seven and walked four.

Etzell, who had a double, and Smith accounted for Coupeville’s four hits, get-

ting two each.Until the eighth, the

Wolves never had a base runner with less than two outs. At one stretch, from the fourth through the sev-enth, only one Coupeville hitter reached base (Wade Schaef walked in the fifth).

With one out in the eighth, Schaef walked again. Tumblin hit a grounder to shortstop, which forced Schaef at second. The late throw to first to try to double-up Tumblin skipped by the first baseman and al-lowed Tumblin to advance to second, setting up Smith’s game-winning hit.

In the top of the eighth, a lead-off single and error put a runner at second with no outs. Etzell, who threw well over 100 pitches, then finished his day with three straight strikeouts. The last two with a runner on third

after a passed ball.Had the game gone to

the ninth inning, Coupeville coach Willie Smith said he would have turned to Aaron Trumbull to finish the game.

Etzell admitted after the game he was spent. He also said he wasn’t concerned when he faced the bases-loaded, one-out situation in the seventh even though he put two of the runners on with walks.

“I have the mind set, that whenever runners get on second or third, I am not go-ing to let them score.”

Scoring came quickly for Coupeville in the win over Charles Wright/Life Chris-tian Academy of Tacoma.

The Wolves scored four runs in the first inning thanks to singles by Tum-blin, Josh Bayne and Cole Payne and a two-run double from Aaron Curtin.

Charles Wright trimmed the lead to 4-3 in the sixth, then Coupeville scored two more. Bayne and Curtin singled and Korbin Korzan was hit by a pitch, loading the bases.

Wade Schaef followed with a bunt that began a crazy sequence. The bunt scored Bayne and Schaef was safe at first when no one covered the base. On the bunt, Curtin tried to score from second and was thrown out. Schaef bolted for second base, and on the throw to second Korbin scored.

Curtin finished 2-for-3 with a double and three RBI, Etzell was 2-for-3 and the Wolves finished with nine hits. While the offense was putting up six runs, Coupeville pitcher C.J. Smith threw a complete-game, five-hitter.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

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

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

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

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

• Thorough physical and dental exams

• Preventative medicine

• Diagnostic medicine

• Internal medicine

• Behavior management

• Home euthanasia

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

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