Langley will be without an incumbent in the 2015 may-oral election.
Mayor Fred McCarthy announced his decision not to seek re-election Monday morning. In an interview with The Record, he said he wants to pursue other interests, chief among them his family.

A host of people from South Whidbey spent the past week in Haiti on a mission trip.
In all, 14 people from Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland made the journey to help rebuild homes damaged in the earthquake 2010. The group took with them some tokens from South Whidbey — a few dozen soccer balls and soccer outfits from the high school’s head coaches, Joel Gerlach and Emerson “Skip” Robbins.
Gerlach pulled out blue and white jerseys and shorts used by a Falcon team seven years ago, had them cleaned and
ready for a new life in the Caribbean country.
“It’s something we’ve talked about for years,” Gerlach said, after a recent boys soccer game at Waterman’s Field while unloading the bins from his truck.
The Falcon coaches were also sure to donate a pump for the balls, which had to be deflated for the journey. Kevin Lungren, a church member whose son played for the Falcons years ago, wrote in a text message that the soccer balls were handed out to 112 children up to 10 years old one day during the mission trip.
South Whidbey High School received the coveted Washington Achievement Award, a recognition of its overall excellence and math growth, according to a recent press release.
South Whidbey High School is one of 401 schools statewide which received the award. Recipients are selected using the Washington Achievement Index.
The award is granted to the highest perform-ing schools in the state, based upon three years of academic information, according to the release.
Schools are recognized as top performers in one or more of six categories: overall excellence, high progress, reading growth, math growth, extended graduation rate and English language acquisi-tion.
“The Achievement Awards are an opportu-nity to acknowledge the school communities who have made the greatest difference in the lives of Washington students,” said State Board of Education Chairwoman Isabel Muñoz-Colón, in the release.
Award-winning schools will be honored at a ceremony April 28 at Spanaway Lake High School in Bethel School District.

Nearly 200 Whidbey General Hospital staff are reportedly wearing purple wrist bands inscribed with the letters “LG” in support of their chief nursing officer who was found not guilty of assault last week.
Around 200 of the wrist bands had been passed out during the trial of Linda Gipson this past Thursday and Friday, Chief of Staff Brenden Hansen told the hospital’s board of directors at their regular Monday morning meeting.
“This is a way to show vis-ible support,” said Hansen, wearing a band himself. “The trial has been divisive in some ways, but in other ways it brings us together. We need to remember why we’re here.”
Moving forward, Hansen said he hoped to bring the hospital staff together as a “family.”
The 7 a.m. gathering had an unusually large crowd of more than 40 people.
Registered Nurse Tasha Malone spoke during pub-lic comment in support of Gipson, saying that the CNO was “not fairly represented” and that she has “very high standards.”
“We support Linda Gipson,” Malone said. “We support our CNO.”
Retired nurse Barbara Read read her letter to the editor which was recently published in the South Whidbey Record.
“She is a gift to our com-munity; a true nurse who not only has compassion and love for the service, but who has gathered through-out her life the education, experience, and courage to make the best leader for our hospital,” Read said. “I am thankful she chose to come
to our hospital as chief nurs-ing officer, and am grateful for every day she has served this community.”
Long-time Whidbey General Hospital watchdog Rob Born said that while he supported Gipson, it was “just the beginning of that story” which was a “case of prosecutorial overreach on a vast scale.”
“This was a travesty of injustice,” Born said. “It was an ordeal that should never have taken place. Ms. Gipson may never get her reputation back but we can let everyone know what an honorable per-son she is.”
Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks said later Monday that he pursued the case because “a judge found that there was probable cause to believe a crime had been committed when we charged it.”
In addition, a judge later passed on a chance to dis-miss the case, Banks said.
“I believe that I had a duty to bring the charge,” Banks said. “We sometimes have to take difficult cases, and let the jury decide.”
Brian Giles, who said his wife has worked at the hospi-
tal for 28 years, told hospital board members Monday morning that he wanted to speak for those nurses who lost their jobs as a result of Gipson’s vindication.
“The cost was the reputa-tion of a lot of good employ-ees,” Giles said of the nurses who testified against Gipson. “There was a price. Three or four good nurses paid the price for what they thought.”
Robert Wagner, a doctor not affiliated with Whidbey General, said the hospital should use the Gipson trial and the arrival of the new
CEO Geri Forbes next week
as a chance to start fresh with the community.
“I represent a group of citi-zens that are very concerned with what is happening in Island County,” Wagner said. “We need more transparency from this hospital. Now is the time for change and taking all this into consideration so that we, the public, are satis-fied with how you’re running this hospital.”
Board President Anne Tarrant thanked Wagner for his comments saying she “would rather talk to some-one than listen to rumors.”
The board also bade fare-well to outgoing CEO Tom Tomasino with a few tears
and more than half of the room stood to give him a standing ovation.
Monday was his final meeting at Whidbey General Hospital as CEO.
LaJolla Peters, human resources manager at Whidbey General, gave a short speech thanking Tomasino for his work at the hospital and each board member took a moment to thank him as well.
Tomasino said that he never intended to stay long-term with the hospital but he “fell in love with this organi-zation and the people who work here.”

House fire claims woman’s life
One person was killed and another injured in a house fire early Tuesday morning in the Dugualla Bay Heights neighbor-hood on North Whidbey.
The one-story house on East Bay Front Lane was engulfed in flames when firefighters arrived around 2 a.m., said Marv Koorn, chief of North Whidbey Fire and Rescue. Tuesday morning only a charred skeleton of the home remained. Firefighters picked their way through the smol-dering rubble as they waited for the coroner to arrive.
Officials are waiting to
release the name of the victim until the coroner confirms an identity.
Firefighters from North Whidbey were on the scene within minutes of the 1:50 a.m. emergency call but the house was too far gone to save, Koorn said. Another per-son staying at the house sustained minor burns. He was taken to Whidbey General Hospital and released.
Planning policies hearing set
A public hearing has been set to discuss the adoption of revised Countywide Planning Policies, or CWPP, as
required within the Comprehensive Plan Update.
Island County com-missioners will take public input at 6 p.m. Tuesday, Apr. 21 in the Commissioners Hearing Room, 1 N.E. Sixth St, Coupeville.
The purpose of the CWPP is to guide plan-ning efforts that involve multiple jurisdictions and coordinate their actions.
These guidelines will provide a framework for discussions about the size of Urban Growth Areas and establish methodology for popu-lation forecasting and service allocations. The CWPP was reviewed by the Island County Planning Commission
and approved on March 9.

Sound papers picked as record
Sound Publishing newspapers the South Whidbey Record and the Whidbey News-Times will continue to share the responsibility of publi-cizing all county legal notices in 2015.
Island County com-missioners approved the contract with Whidbey News Group last week at the first board meeting in April per state statute.
The publications offer a combined circulation of 9,400 in print and approximately 700,000 unique visitors via the web.
The cost per column inch increased 35 cents over previous years and the web publication of legals is provided free of charge.
District changes banks, saves $600
Hoping to save some money, South Whidbey Fire/EMS has changed banks.
The fire protection dis-trict on South Whidbey left Heritage Bank in favor of Key Bank over
direct deposit processing fees, Chief Rusty Palmer said.
The district was charged $40 per direct deposit, about $600 annually, using Heritage Bank. Key Bank, Palmer said, does not charge for the service.
Spot shrimping opens May 2
Spot shrimp season will open May 2 in Puget Sound.
Marine areas 8-1, 8-2 and 9 around Whidbey Island are open from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. May 2 and May 13. Other areas are open during similar hours, but check the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) website or rules handbook for details.
According to a news release from WDFW, spot shrimp, also known as prawns, are the largest shrimp in Puget Sound and grow up to nine inches long. All areas include limits of 80 spot shrimp per day and require a valid 2015-16 fishing license.
More opportunities may exist if “sufficient quota” remains after the initial fishing dates.

“That all goes with the territory,” he said through a wide smile. “When you’re in the kitchen, you better be ready for the heat.”
When he applied to be appointed as interim mayor in February 2013, he said he did so with goals in mind for the Village by the Sea. He came out of semi-retirement after retiring as superintendent of the South Whidbey School District in 2011.
At the time, Langley was reeling from a scandal involving its former mayor, Larry Kwarsick, who had been charged and pled guilty to falsifying a city document when he was the city planner.
Among a field of five can-didates, including a pair of city council members, McCarthy was selected to lead Langley as its interim mayor. He won re-election in November 2013 unop-posed.
“I came into the job with a certain set of things I wanted to accomplish,” McCarthy said.
He is credited for meet-ing several times with the disenfranchised owners of the Dog House Tavern. At one point in spring 2014, the owners—frustrated with the city’s permit pro-cess and refusal to vacate part of the land adjacent to the tavern—considered demolition. McCarthy asked to meet with them to hear their concerns and explain the city’s position of being unable to make a gift of public funds. Those meetings resulted in the recently approved land exchange requested by the tavern owners, Charlie and Janice Kleiner of Issaquah, who are now pursuing par-
tial restoration/renovation. “We will do anything
we can on our part to help facili-tate their next steps,” McCar thy said.
Ta l k i n g t h e K l e i n e r s down from t e a r i n g down a c e n t u r y -old, his-toric build-ing was an example of McCarthy’s tranquil demeanor, one of the mayor’s great strengths in the opinion of Langley Main Street Association president Janet Ploof.
“What a shame,” she said, upon hearing the news.
“It’s too bad for us to lose him at this point because
he’s such a calm peace-keeper with a ferocious p r a c t i c a l -ity.”
W i t h the marina a c c e s s /bluff con-v e y a n c e p r o j e c t still unde-cided, how-ever, there r e m a i n
m a j o r projects to be resolved. McCarthy said he plans to see work begin on the Dog House and an alterna-tive chosen to move people between the marina, owned and operated by the Port of South Whidbey, and
Langley’s commercial core along Cascade Avenue/First Street, Second Street and Anthes Avenue.
“I hate to see him step aside right in the middle of it,” said Councilman Bruce Allen, who was one of the appointment candidates in 2013.
Given all of the mayor’s initiatives and endeavors,
he has Allen actively trying to talk him into running. Allen said since learning of the mayor’s decision April 1 (an unfortunate date for such an announcement) he has recommended that McCarthy shed some of his extraneous engagements.
As mayor, McCarthy rep-resents Langley on several county and regional boards: the Island County Council of Governments, the Island County Substance Abuse Prevention Coalition, the Law and Justice Council and the Skagit-Island Regional Transportation Planning Organization, to name just a handful.
“He’s taken on a whole lot more than the mayor’s job,” Allen said. “My sense is if he drops some of the extracurriculars he’ll have more time … I probably won’t win, but I won’t let it die.”
McCarthy implemented economic development forums along with some city council members, which turned into month-ly economic development meetings in 2014 and quar-terly meetings this year. A training program for department supervisors was installed by McCarthy that also began this year.
Among his accomplish-ments, McCarthy cited the
mayor’s awards he began passing out in recognition of service to Langley by citi-zens, groups and business owners. It’s not codified yet, and he said he plans to make it a fixture of City Hall’s future. With eight months left in his term, the mayor will be busy.
“I don’t plan to start skat-ing,” McCarthy said.
The field for Langley’s mayor will not be set until May 15 when the candidate filing week ends.
Beyond the mayor, three city council positions held by Jim Sundberg, Bruce Allen and Robin Black will be up for election.
“I can’t even imagine what’s going to come next,” Ploof said.

JUDGE THE FINAL ANSWER
You’ve listed your home for sale, and can’t wait to see your agent in action, showing your home to prospective buyers. You’re looking forward to hearing the agent describe the rosewood cabinetry in the kitchen, the heart-of-pine hand-pegged fl oors, and the effi ciency of the double-duty heating and cooling system.
What’s wrong with this picture? First, you should be conspicuously absent when your home is being shown. Buyers rarely bring up objections or concerns when homeowners are present, however they will talk freely with the agent. It is vital that the agent be allowed to work with prospects i an atmosphere conducive to positive negotiations.
Keep in mind that your agent is responsible for causing your home to sell. Your agent is the catalyst which causes your home to be exposed to the widest audience of buyers. Other agents are encouraged to show the home to their buyers too, thus widening the circle of prospects for an early sale.
Interestingly, the most serious, motivated buyers may be escorted through your home with hardly a word being spoken. Having qualifi ed the prospects before the showing begins, the agent may realize they need time to think clearly without interference in order to reach a decision.
Judge your agent on actions not words - on the fi nal sale rather than the showing. The rewards can be great!

Niki Greene, age 14, is brimming with excitement as she talks about her upcoming performance with the Island Dance Performing Team.
Greene has been with the school since the age of five; this is her first year on the team, an opportunity she’s had her sights on for over two years.
“Everything fell into place,” she said.
Greene will be join-ing fellow Island Dance Performing Team members and guests at the upcoming annual Other Moves dance showcase, which features a variety of dance styles rang-ing from hip hop to lyrical, jazz and contemporary.
Performances will take place at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 21 at the South Whidbey High School Auditorium Theater.
In addition to it being a venue for community members and Island Dance performers to take to the stage to demonstrate their artistry, the showcase is a major fundraiser for the per-forming team.
Funds raised from the
event will be used to offset the costs of competitions throughout the year. They include travel expenses, entrance fees and costumes.
Jamee Pitts, artistic director and choreographer, stressed that the team is less focused on winning competitions and more upon building the dancers’ skill sets and showcasing their teamwork, tenacity and passion.
“We aren’t going there and saying, ‘I’m going to win first place; I’m going to win double-platinum,’ ” Pitts said. “We’re going and saying, ‘I’m going to share my gift and my love for dance; and I’m going to share my story with the audience; and I can’t wait to get the judges’ critique to better myself.’ ”
The team was created by Susan Vanderwood as a means for intermediate dancers who were not quite ready to join the profession-al Whidbey Island Dance Theater company to get a lit-tle more out of the school, a sort of “next edge,” towards a dance career.
Competition was never really the focus, which Pitts says is somewhat unique to Island Dance due to it being home to a school, profession-
al dance company and per-formance team rather than one of these alone.
Pitts has been dancing since age three, and has been the director of the per-formance team for five years.
Her teaching style and philosophy are indicative of her emphasis upon educa-tion and artistry, as is her bond with the girls.
“She’s not like any ordi-nary teacher,” said Chyler White, age 11. White explained that Pitts’ patience and sense of humor are two
of the qualities which make her a good teacher.
White has been dancing with the school since age three, and joined the team two years ago.
Thus far, she estimates she’s been in about seven competitions, including nationals in 2014.
“It was really exciting, and really fun,” she said of the nationals competition. “We got to go to California, and I got to share that experience with the whole team.”
It was the first time Pitts
had taken the team to a national competition.
“It was definitely an expe-rience,” said Pitts, explaining that if she is to take the team to a future national event, she will likely choose one less competition centric, a more educational and “con-vention-based” event.
Tickets cost $12 in advance and $15 at the door and can be purchased in advance at Island Dance and Gymnastics by calling 360-341-1282 or at the office at 714 Camano Ave.
Dancers of the Island Dance Performing Team practice a number during a recent
class. The team will be performing in Other Moves, a showcase and fundraiser, on
Saturday, Feb. 21 at the South Whidbey High School auditorium.

Janet Ploof, Langley Main Street Association president
ResponseLawmakers should play fair with critical fundingEditor,
Budgets in Olympia reflect the values of our elected leaders which in turn reflects our local values. The League of Women Voters of Whidbey Island applauds the house budget for going further than the governor and senate in proposing new revenue for education and other critical state services. We are very concerned about the senate’s proposal to raid funds designated for local infrastructure such as sewer and water projects, parks, and health services.
However, we believe none of the proposed budgets go far enough in improv-ing the fairness of our tax system and addressing rev-enue shortfalls in education and other essential state services. Our current state tax system is considered the most unfair in the nation, with taxes falling dispropor-tionately on lower-income residents. Further, without additional shared revenue, the Washington Supreme Court’s review of the legis-lature’s compliance with the McCleary decision (ample state funding for education) may result in the imposition of sanctions.
We urge readers to con-tact their legislators with this message: Let’s play fair and fund critical services for our state.
Sincerely,JOYCE PETERSON and
MARSHALL GOLDBERGLeague of Women Voters

I am writing this before the verdict of the trial is announced in which Dr. Linda Gipson is being accused of fourth-degree misdemeanor assault from an incident in 2014 involv-ing a mentally ill patient at Whidbey General.
I have spent some part of each day observing the trial proceedings and it strikes me that what should be on trial instead is the completely abysmal state of mental health care in our state and the lack of appro-priate resources to care for the mentally ill who need inpatient hospital care. The staff caring for the patient that day (with the exception of Dr. Gipson) were woefully under-prepared to deal with the volatile situation at hand because this type of patient has no business staying in a rural, low-acuity community medical surgical unit.
Because of the lack of funded, skilled inpatient psy-chiatric beds, well-meaning health care staff are unnec-essarily being placed at risk
by patients who are mentally unstable and frequently vio-lent and/or abusive. There has been a steady increase in just such patients need-ing hospital care, while there are fewer places where they can be appropriately cared for by staff with the requi-site specialized training and experience.
Then there is the issue of the steady rise of violence against health care workers. In a recent study published in the Emergency Journal of Nursing more than 700 hos-pital nurses were surveyed and 76 percent reported experiencing some type of abuse from patients, families or visitors over the past year. Some health care workers have historically been hesi-tant to report assaults and abuse they experience on the job. This problem has been further compounded in our community when law enforcement and the judi-cial system may not respond effectively when staff do report it. That must change.
It saddens me to think of the cost of this incident on those involved and I strongly believe it should have never come to this, on many levels. At the very least, we should continue to raise awareness
surrounding these issues.TRISH L. NILSEN, RN

Shooting guns but no camping on private land?Editor,
On Whidbey Island, it’s legal to fire weapons on your own property “preferably into a berm.” However, it’s illegal to camp on your own property unless you have a house there. Evidently the public is in more danger from campers than bullets?
MARIAN BLUEClinton
Newspaper’s online classifieds aren’t so greatEditor,
I do not know who thought they were improving your online classified ad page but sad to say they failed miser-ably. If the idea was to make it difficult to navigate and challenging to make sense of, they succeeded. This is the worst layout I have ever come across.

Mayor’s seat a tough job; candidates should prepare themselves
Editorial
Langley got big news this week when it learned first-term Mayor Fred McCarthy will not seek re-election this November.
No doubt many will be disappointed in losing him so soon, for the mayor accomplished much in very little time. Indeed, the Village by the Sea will be hard pressed to find a replace-ment who is as committed to economic development and combating South Whidbey’s alarming drug problem. In these areas, McCarthy showed real leadership, and Langley is a better place for it.
Of course, not everyone has been so satisfied with the past two years, and chances are good critics are looking forward to a new chief at City Hall.
Such is politics. Public office is a tough and often thankless job, and there
isn’t a person on Earth who can satisfy everyone. Particularly true in small towns, unknowing people jump at the chance to make a difference and fix problems real or fancied, only to find their solutions met with argument and debate, and their intentions and integrity questioned on a community scale. It can be a rude and unexpected awakening for many.
McCarthy says that wasn’t true with him.“When you’re in the kitchen, you better be ready for the
heat,” he told The Record. Nevertheless, as we look to filing week next month, which
begins May 11, we urge would-be elected officials to recog-nize the challenges and personal price tag of public office before they throw their hat into the ring. Especially with the mayor’s race.
The seat has been a rodeo bull in recent years, bucking four mayors in less than a decade. There’s nothing wrong with new blood, but longevity is a platform for steady direc-tion, follow through and often translates into actually getting things done. Langley could use a bit of stability.
Perhaps a two-term mayor is too much to hope for in a town as rough and tumble in politics as Langley. Voters are the ultimate deciders of course, but it would be nice to see candidates come forward who are interested in the job over the long term.
Prospective mayors should consider the realities of office carefully, asking themselves honestly if they’re willing to shoulder the weight of never-ending criticism, the burden of public debate and the headaches of transparency. If the answer is yes, then file for office and give the people of Langley your pitch.
Three city council positions are also up for election this year: position 2, held by Robin Black; position 3, held by Jim Sundberg; and position 4, held by Bruce Allen.
The mayor’s seat and council positions are all nonpartisan and carry four-year terms.

out on
proof
numerous witnesses, including experts in the medical field.
Gipson, 63, was accused of assault for grabbing a mental-health patient by the chin while the woman was in four-point restraints in May 2014.
The jury made a special finding that Gipson’s “use of force was lawful by a preponderance of evidence,” according to Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks. He said that means she may be able to recoup her attorney’s fees and other costs through a state account set up to reimburse people who are found not guilty by reason of self-defense.
Several nurses who were in the room testified against Gipson, saying that her actions were unneces-sary and that Gipson acted inappropriately out of anger directed toward a troublesome patient. A nurse that Gipson fired after she complained about her actions has since moved and wasn’t able to testify.
Gipson, however, took the stand last Wednesday and testified that she was fol-lowing her years of training in respond-ing to an attention-seeking, troublesome mental health patient by redirecting her attention.
She described how she was responding to a “code gray” that was called because the patient was unruly and trying to escape from her restraints. She said she entered the patient’s room and found that the nurs-es weren’t following protocol in dealing with the patient.
“I was profoundly disappointed that the staff had handled themselves so poorly,” she said.
Gipson testified that the woman had pulled an arm out of her restraints and she held the woman’s chin while another nurse fixed the restraints.
Gipson and several defense witnesses testified that it’s a common technique in dealing with unruly patients.
Brenden Hansen, a doctor at Whidbey General Hospital, testified for the defense;
he worked with Gipson in running the emergency department.
He said he’s very familiar with the patient, who has been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder and often arrives at the emergency room after becoming intoxi-cated.
He said people with that disorder tend to be very unpredictable. He said the woman has assaulted staff at the hospital previ-ously.
Hansen testified that it’s a common technique to “control a patient’s head,” to
focus their attention and prevent them from hurting themselves or others. He said it can be necessary even when the patient is restrained.
Hansen said he read the reports by the other nurses and other documents and concluded that Gipson acted appropriately.
“I think there was a mis-interpretation by the peo-
ple on the bedside,” he said.On cross examination, Hansen conceded
that it is never appropriate for a medical provider to put their hands on a patient as a punishment or retaliation. He also agreed that the medical-surgical wing, where the patient was being held, is a different envi-ronment than the emergency room.
The 30-year-old patient testified earlier in the week. She claimed that she doesn’t suffer from borderline personality disorder and contradicted evidence presented in the court about her history of assaulting staff members at Whidbey General and other hospitals.
She claimed that Gipson choked her. She also admitted that she was suing the hospi-tal over the incident.
After the verdict, Island County Prosecutor Greg Banks said he respects the jury’s decision and that it was a difficult case. He said his office didn’t bring charges on the word of the patient, but that three eyewitness nurses put their jobs on the line to testify about what they had seen.
“I felt it was a case that needed to be decided by a jury,” he said.

Sheriff’s Report
By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
A five-run second inning leaped the Lakewood Cougars baseball squad past South Whidbey to a 9-6 win on a wet and windy Friday.
Lakewood jumped from trailing 2-0 in the first inning to leading 7-4 in the third. Lakewood strung together a handful of singles and a few walks to score seven runs. Falcon pitcher Charlie Patterson, a junior, got out of the inning after back-to-back groundouts by the Cougars.
South Whidbey did not rest on its laurels. Austin Sterba, a sophomore, fought to a full-count walk before being knocked to third base on a line drive single into right field by sophomore Will Simms. After stealing second, a fielder’s choice scored Sterba and moved Simms to third. He scored on a passed ball.
Neither team would score again until the fifth inning. The Falcons’ were led by junior Ricky Muzzy, who reached first base on an error. The fleet-footed infield-er bolted to second base during teammate Connor Antich’s time at-bat. Antich reached first base on an error by the pitcher trying to field the high-bouncing grounder. Mo Hamsa’s sacrifice fly to center field scored Muzzy, and Antich reached third on the throw to home plate. Brent Piehler, a senior, fouled
off several pitches before ripping one through the left infield to score Antich.
Lakewood responded with a security run in the sixth. The Cougars led off with a line drive single by Matt Seiber. South Whidbey relieved Patterson from the mound and brought in Muzzy. Cougar junior Sam Linscott laid down a sacrifice bunt that moved Seiber to second. Hunter Fritz, a Cougar senior, knocked a single past Falcon third base-man Trent Fallon that scored Seiber.
Yet despite giving up
another single and walking a Cougar, Muzzy stranded three runners and got the last two batters to fly out, thanks in part to an ath-letic catch in center field by Patterson.
Keeping senior pitcher Taylor Hogue on the mound, Lakewood made quick work of South Whidbey’s next three batters in the sixth inning. Not one reached base.
In the seventh, Lakewood padded its lead on a RBI sac-rifice fly by Linscott.
South Whidbey got two batters on base in the sev-
enth on a pair of singles by Antich and Hamsa. But Hogue threw low to Patterson and Piehler for a pair of popups to end the game.
Near the bottom of the league standings, South Whidbey’s true regular-sea-son test began April 13.
The Falcons hosted Cedar Park Christian, a newcomer to the Cascade Conference and a fellow 1A school. The rest of South Whidbey’s schedule will determine its eligibility for the postseason with series against Sultan and King’s the next two weeks.

South Whidbey senior Campbell Albertsen is tagged out at first base against Lakewood on April 10.
Eight different South Whidbey boys soccer play-ers scored as the team rebounded from its second loss of the season with a 10-0 win over Lakewood on Friday.
The Falcons, reeling from a 2-1 loss to Cedarcrest on April 7, came out strong against the Cougars. South Whidbey took a 3-0 lead at halftime that sprung to a 10-0 drubbing by the match’s end.
“It went well,” Falcon head coach Emerson “Skip” Robbins said Monday in a phone interview.
Friday’s boys soccer match could have been a Nickelodeon program, “The Luke and Luke Show.” Falcon juniors Lucas Leiberman and Lucas Fulton each scored two goals.
“It was the Lucas night,” Robbins said.
South Whidbey (5-2-0 Cascade Conference, 7-2-0 overall) was without lead-ing scorer Kai da Rosa. The senior forward was touring a college during the high school’s spring break. The absence and the lopsided affair led to a lot of action for the reserve players.
“We got a lot of guys play-ing time,” Robbins said.
South Whidbey’s scoring onslaught opened with an unlikely candidate. Senior defender Bryce Auburn booted in the ball off a corner kick.
Kameron Donohoe, a senior midfielder, followed with a goal of his own. Davin Kesler later scored on a penalty kick to jump out to the quick lead.
Leiberman and Fulton scored the next pair, the latter assisted by junior Lochlan Roberts.
Jeff Meier, South Whidbey’s second-leading scorer, boot-ed in a shot assisted by Kesler.
Fulton headed in the next goal on an assist from Leiberman.
“You watch Lucas (Fulton) play and if you’re the oppos-ing coach you say, ‘I don’t have to worry about that guy too much,’” Robbins said. “But he has a way of finding the goal. It’s an uncanny sense. It’s weird. I’ve never coached a kid like him before.”
Coel Cable, a senior reserve, scored the next goal for his first varsity point.
Leiberman scored again before senior midfielder Andy Zisette booted in the final shot.
Lakewood had yet to win a match this season. On Monday, South Whidbey took on Sultan (3-4-0 confer-
ence, 4-4-1 overall) in a blustery, rain-soaked 1A Cascade Conference showdown with playoff implications. The Falcons quickly took control of the score and won 11-0, with three players scoring hat tricks.
“We looked sharp,” Robbins said. “We didn’t mean to pour it on,” he added. Zisette, Meier and Leiberman each had three goals.
Zisette had all three of his by halftime. He and Meier were sidelined for much of the second half.
“Andy had his coming out party last night,” Robbins said. “He was on fire. If I had left him in he would have finished with five or six goals.”
It was the third time Meier recorded a hat trick this season.
Donohoe and junior Jordan Henriot scored the other two goals.

The Whidbey Institute will host a discus-sion of climate change featuring presenta-tions from experts in the field such as Elizabeth May, leader of the Green Party of Canada, this week.
The Cascadia Climate Conference begins with registration and arrival of guests at 4 p.m. Thursday, April 16. At 7:30 a.m. Friday, April 17 the conference commences and will go through 9 p.m. Friday, continuing from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday. Following the final presentation on Saturday, the pub-
lic is invited to a free discussion at 7:30 p.m. which will feature reflections on the conference as well as talks from May and daughter Cate May Burton.
According to Larry Daloz, senior fellow at the Whidbey Institute, May is one of the most popular and progressive candi-dates in Canada and possesses a wealth of information regarding the subject of the causes and effects of climate change and the necessity of addressing the issue from multiple angles.
Daloz emphasized that this is a pertinent discussion in the Cascadia region and inter-nationally.
According to the Whidbey Institute web-site, conference speakers will address the ways in which climate change is more than a scientific, technological or economic problem and will examine the ways in which it is a “moral problem” warranting a moral response.
Topics of discussion include “Race and Climate Justice,” “The Psychology
of Climate Change: Beyond Hope and Despair,” “Global and Local Activism,” “Swinomish Climate Crisis Initiative and Community Engagement,” and a keynote address from May and May Burton.
Standard registration costs $150; sup-porting registration costs $250; and regis-tration with a scholarship costs $50.

For the island’s equine enthusiasts, participating in the Whidbey Western Games Association is about much more than competi-tion.
The association was conceived 25 years ago by a group of longtime Whidbey residents who had pro-gressed through the ranks of 4-H together and determined that an all-inclusive eques-trian game association would
benefit the community. Participants partake in
Western-style patterned horse racing, which includes 30 different events such as poles, one-jump scurry, speed barrels, Idaho figure eight, stake and gymkhana jig as well as team events such as ribbon race, Western relay and Kansas lead back.
Each game includes five different individual events and one team event.
The season began this month and will go through September, with the final
game Sept. 13. In addition to the regular events, the asso-ciation also holds a two-day O-Mok-See, which is a larger gathering to include riders from various corners of the Pacific Northwest.
Sunday, April 12, marked the first game of the 2015 season. A record number of 101 riders signed up to compete, according to asso-ciation co-presidents Lynna Baker and Liz McPhee.
Since its inception, the association has expanded to include approximately 200 members and a number of periodic participants, most of whom have come to regard fellow riders as family.
On Sunday morning, Freeland resident Heather Kline peered through the
fence of the Island County Fairgrounds arena with cam-era at the ready. The lifelong rider and association mem-ber attended the first game of the season with her hus-band and children, Lilly, age 7; Lucas, age 5; and Drystan, age 4. Three junior-level rid-ers and their horses stepped into the ring, one of whom Kline has known since “before they were born.”
Kline has been competing since age 16, and her chil-dren began competing at age two. They’re “peewees” and are led on their horses at a slower pace by more experi-enced participants.
“I like feeling like a family with this group of people and how much they encourage each other and root each
other on,” Kline said, as she snapped photos of the horses sprinting by.
Langley resident Kristin Woodward has been involved with the organiza-tion for 16 years. Like the organization’s founders, she and her husband went through 4-H together. Kristin has been riding since she was 4, and their son, Dylan Woodward, mounted the saddle for the first time at age 3.
Woodward noted that growing up with the associa-tion has been a boon to her son, who has made several
close friends both from the island and neighboring Snohomish County. Dylan also learned valuable lessons in sportsmanship.
“I think it’s very positive. It’s a family sport so all of us are involved,” Woodward said.
The games are divided into seven age and skill lev-els, with current members ranging in age from 4 to 70.
McPhee said riders are quick to offer encourage-ment as well as tips and advice, even for participants against whom they are com-peting.
Members also share in the workload, with both children and adults working to keep the grounds tidy and ensure that the show goes smoothly.
“Lynna and I love riding, and we love riding in this club,” McPhee said.
Membership for the Whidbey Western Games Association costs $25 for one person or $35 for a family. For a full season schedule and more information, visit whidbeywesterngamesassocia-tion.org.
“As long as you have a Western saddle and some cowboy boots, anyone is included,” Woodward said.

Whidbey residents can rid themselves of old tires at a recycling drive next week.
Facilitated by Waste Wise and Beach Watchers of WSU Extension Island County, the event is 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 18 at the Coupeville Transfer Station on Highway 20.
Passenger car and light truck tires will be accepted at a reduced rate: $2.50 for un-rimmed tires and $4 for those still on a rim. Tires should be reasonably clean, not full of dirt or styrofoam. No tires from large trucks, tractors, lawn machines or airplanes.
Checks and cash only. Volunteers from Waste Wise and Beach Watchers will be assisting.
Old tires take up space, can be a source of pollu-tion and be a breeding ground for thousands of mosquitoes that can hatch each year from the
puddle of a single tire.For details about the
event, call Janet Hall at 360-678-7974 or 360-321-5111 ext. 7974, or email her at [email protected].
Langley will welcome gray whales and visi-tors with family activities, a parade of the species through town, music and a celebration at Seawall Park on Saturday, April 18.
Festivities begin with educational exhibits and parade costume-making at 11 a.m. at Langley United Methodist Church, Third Street and Anthes Avenue.
The parade will start at 1:30 p.m. at the US Bank parking lot, proceed east down Second Street and end at Seawall Park on First Street.
At Seawall Park, music and celebrating will follow a blessing of the whales at 2 p.m.
The parade is an oppor-tunity to celebrate marine mammals such as gray whales and orcas that frequent the waters off
Langley’s shores. Rain or shine, parade-
goers come adorned in sealife-themed attire or in regular clothing to march along Langley’s streets.
James Sumich, whale researcher and author of “E.robustus: The Biology & Human History of Gray
Whales” will give a talk at 3 p.m., at Langley United Methodist Church.
