Burglary spree spurs awareness in business communityString of 14 break-ins focused exclusively on cashBy Mark [email protected]

FERNDALE — Downtown Ferndale business owners are breathing a sigh of relief after a notorious burglar was appar-ently caught red-handed over the weekend. However, work for the Ferndale Police Department is just beginning when it comes to helping educate businesses on avoiding becoming targets of a break-in. Perhaps the hardest lesson in the whole rash of mischief, which began on Nov. 8, was how a single person allegedly broke so many windows for so little cash on hand. According to Ferndale Po-lice Chief Michael Knapp, an

Service cooperative program open this weekendBy Mark [email protected]

FERNDALE — The Ferndale Holiday Giving Store is preparing for its holiday season by seeking cash donations as well as donations of new, unwrapped gifts. The store will be open from Thursday, Dec. 13, through Saturday, Dec. 15. Since 2003, the Ferndale Com-munity Service Cooperative’s Holi-day Giving Store has provided gifts

for low-income families during the holidays. Last year, more than 700 Ferndale children received gifts through the store. Warm clothing, preferably hooded sweatshirts, for children and teens in sizes up through ex-tra large are especially needed this year. Teen items, sports equipment and makeup kits are just a few of the suggested items for donation. Julianna Kindlund-Carpenter, a founder of store under service coop umbrella, said the biggest hole right now is toys for children ages 6-12 and gifts for teens. Other donation suggestions are crafts and games. Gifts may be deposited in col-

lection bins at the Oxford Carna-tion Building as well as at WECU, Key Bank, Washington Federal Bank and Ferndale Haggen. Cash dona-tions may be mailed to P.O. Box 2205, Ferndale, WA 98248 or brought to the Ferndale Community Resource Center at 5694 Second Ave. They can also be donated directly to the “Giv-ing Store” account at Washington Federal. Kindlund-Carpenter said the store will likely continue to serve families that come all the way through Christmas. However, they are still quite a way from their goal for what they need, starting this Thursday. The store, staffed by volunteers, is in the Oxford Carnation Building, 1920 Main St., Suite 1.

Planners still hope for 2013 groundbreaking By Mark [email protected]

FERNDALE — The new li-brary is so close you can smell it — and it’s making support-ers very hungry. A new grant obtained by the City of Ferndale has add-ed another $500,000 to the books. However, with the re-

cent pledge of up to $1 million in matching funds, that grant will actually send $1 million to the project. That means the new Fern-dale Library is just $540,000 away from its $5.4 million goal. The grant, awarded by the Community Economic Revitalization Board, is a great fit for the project, said Norine Amend, president of the Friends of the Ferndale Library. Amend noted that the li-brary should be viewed as a

key part of community revital-ization, with its ideal location on Main Street and improved services. On the other hand, Amend said, it’s important not to forget that the Pioneer Pavilion building, which cur-rently houses the library, will be available for many other public uses as soon as the Whatcom County Library Sys-tem vacates it.

Library steps closer with $500,000 grant

More study to be conducted of LaBounty parcelBy Mark [email protected]

FERNDALE — A Fern-dale property tops an updated list of possible sites for a new Whatcom County Jail, accord-ing to Whatcom County Sher-iff Bill Elfo. Ferndale Mayor Gary Jensen said he began corre-sponding with Elfo as soon as it appeared the city had top billing in the process. The 40-acre parcel, on LaBounty Drive near Sunset Avenue, is currently the site getting the most attention after a jail planning commit-tee received seven proposals meeting its described criteria. Jensen said that while he understands the need for a new jail and the attractiveness of the LaBounty site, he’s not

exactly excited about the plan. That’s partly because he feels for those who have lived in the area for years and have dealt with rising industrial develop-ment already. On the other hand, Jen-sen also noted that beyond the initial build, a jail on that site means no revenue gen-eration from sales tax by an operating business. The property is currently owned by Janicki Industries, based in Skagit County. Jensen also shared a letter he has already received from a resident in the area. Elfo said that he and those tasked with examin-ing the property in depth will keep the process extremely transparent. That means there will likely be meetings spe-cifically for affected residents, as well as meetings for the broader community. In fact, Elfo said, he has already spoken to some Fern-dale residents with concerns, such as where prisoners

would be released. They have, in the early planning stage, al-ready considered a standard-ized release point at the What-com County Courthouse. Elfo noted the ideal na-ture of the property by high-lighting its size, which allows for easy expansion and its proximity to the freeway. Elfo noted that plans for future expansion are critical since the jail has already been located in seven different spots in the county. The eventual decision to break ground on a new jail will ultimately be decided by the Whatcom County Council. Plans for a new facility account for a possible num-ber of 500 to 700 inmates. The current jail houses 470 right now, but the crowded condi-tions force inmates to sleep in shower space sometimes. In addition to setting up community hearings, Elfo said he hopes to have a meeting with Ferndale officials soon in order to keep them informed.

Ferndale site dominates jail talkresources led to Cockerel’s ar-rest, however. “It’s important that the community understands that we don’t just bring our assets to issues like this,” Knapp said. “We can also call upon larger assets. We just want people to see that relationship.” When Cockerel was ar-rested, he had apparently al-ready broken into two other locations overnight, Knapp said. In response to the spree, Philip Petrasek, police com-munity services coordinator, is organizing an awareness campaign for local business, starting with a presentation at the next Ferndale Chamber of Commerce membership lun-

cheon on Wednesday, Dec. 19. For more information about the meeting, call the Chamber of Commerce at 384-3042. Knapp said the Petrasek presentation will mirror his other efforts to help individual neighborhoods fight crime. However, themes unique to business security will be front and center. Business owners will also be invited to join an email network to counter threats as they happen. “This was an eye-opening reminder for the need to be cautious in how you protect your business,” Knapp said. “We are going to turn this into a positive opportunity.”

Move from Laurel benefits Ferndale residentsBy Mark [email protected]

FERNDALE — The race for the title of Best Burger in Ferndale just got a little bit more interesting. That’s because on Monday, Dec. 3, Matt Trott began selling the Good Burger within the city limits. For five years, Trott has been running his restaurant out of a leased space on the Guide Meridian in Laurel. But when his lease recently expired, he saw an opportu-nity to own his own spot on Third Avenue in Ferndale. Owning his own place was his goal. And the small former home of Siam Cafe was just the ticket. “I’ve been looking to move here a long time,” Trott said. “We’ve gotten a warm reception so far.” Trott noted that his old regulars didn’t miss a beat. From his very first day, many of them came out and sup-ported him. That’s when he realized that some of them lived in Ferndale anyway. Even better, he’s already noticed plenty of other peo-

ple getting introduced to his offerings. The main burger op-tions, rated in order of their popularity by Trott, are the original Good Burger, the Bacon Burger and Mush-room Swiss. However, there are plenty more to consider and taste — The Fair, Guaca-mole Bacon, Hawaiian and Barbecue. There’s even sandwiches to consider, such as the Patty Melt, Reuben, Grilled Ham and Cheese and the original Grilled Cheese. But it’s not just the op-tions on the menu that draw most people to Trott’s food. It’s more likely the fact that he insists on grinding his beef fresh every day. For good measure, he also cuts his own french fries — no frozen patties and precut spuds around here. Trott admits he’s a bit particular about his food. Af-ter all, it’s something he grew up around. Trott’s grandfather was the original owner of Lee’s Drive-In in Bellingham be-fore his uncle took over. When working with his un-cle as a teen, Trott said, he sometimes butted heads, with the end result being the same: “He’d tell me, ‘When you have your own restau-

rant, you can do it that way,’” Trott said. “Now I sometimes catch myself saying that to people working for me.” Before opening up Good Burger, Trott wore several different hats. He even worked as a commer-

cial fisherman. However, his ideas about food just never went away. And the Laurel restaurant was the result of his restlessness. Trott noted that his menu, while flexible, doesn’t stray far from the basics of

what people expect from a burger meal. His focus on burgers is so acute that he once tried to discontinue his hard ice cream milkshakes. That didn’t go over well. They were soon back on the menu by popular demand.

“People really want their burger, fries and milkshake,” Trott said. Good Burger is open Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Friday and Saturday until 9 p.m.

By Chris CargillWashington Policy Center

Can you hear us now? That’s the question Washington voters are asking lawmakers following passage — for the fifth time — of a supermajority requirement to raise taxes. It’s a reasonable and popular tax policy in our state, and now is the time to take it local. A higher threshold to raise taxes makes increasing taxes a true last resort. Newspaper editorial boards across the state, including that of The Spokesman-Review, concluded a supermajority requirement keeps lawmakers focused on efficiencies. “It’s forced lawmakers from both major political parties to fully debate the merits and compromise,” proclaimed the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin. The evidence is clear. In 2010, when given the chance, Washington lawmakers jumped at passing more than $6.7 billion in tax increases over ten years after they suspended

the supermajority requirement. Months later, voters repealed some of those new taxes. The supermajority requirement is popular throughout Washington. It passed in all 39 counties, even in more-liberal King County. In Spokane County it received 70 percent support, and in the City of Spokane it was nearly unanimous among precincts. It is unlikely that voters differentiate this policy preference between state and local. This is why citizens in Spokane should have the opportunity to adopt a higher threshold for taxes in the city. A charter change would be simple; all new taxes or tax increases in the City of Spokane would require five votes on the City Council for approval, instead of the current four out of seven members. Pierce County residents just approved a charter change that did exactly that with an overwhelming 67 percent of the vote. It now takes five votes to pass a county tax

increase there. Opponents will argue that a supermajority requirement to raise taxes is undemocratic. They ignore the fact there are more than 20 other supermajority provisions in the state constitution and a number of five-vote requirements in the City of Spokane. In late November, Spokane’s City Council nearly adopted a 1 percent hike in property taxes just weeks after approving a generous benefit package for the city’s firefighters. It failed by just one vote. One council member proclaimed taking the 1 percent hike was no different than what has been done in previous years. And that is exactly the problem. When governments operate on autopilot, citizens are left holding the bag. Had a five-vote requirement been in place, consensus would have been required and previous 1 percent hikes would not have passed without a larger discussion about the growing financial burden

ArChiVESn 100 years agoA Santa Claus dream — Friday, December 13, 1912

There is just one thing that is more beautiful and more inspiring to the vision and mind of a child than a circus, and that is the fulfillment of the child’s dream of Santa Claus by a real journey through Toy Land. This grand treat is in store for all the little children of Ferndale and vicinity, for down at the Ferndale Department Store there is a room 30 by 60 feet that is brim full of toys!

n 75 years agoBoard adopts new pupil excuse rule — Thursday, December 9, 1937

Upon the recommendation of the state health officer and county school nurse, the Ferndale school board decided yesterday that students who have been absent from school with illness are not to be admitted to school without a written statement from the health officer or doctor. The rule will only be in force until the present epidemic is over.

n 50 years agoCongratulations…town looks swell — Thursday, December 13, 1962

Everyone agrees that Ferndale streets are attractively decorated! The lighted Santas on the poles and the colorful strings of lights across the streets were made that much more festive for the holiday season when cedar boughs were strung Tuesday night. They were tied to the ornamental light poles.

n 25 years agoLocal schools score well on tests — Wednesday, December 9, 1987

The preliminary report cards are in for the 1987 standardized test scores and the outcome was pretty good for local schools. Overall, students from both Blaine and Ferndale school districts scored at or above the national average on the Metropolitan Achievement Test given in October to fourth, eighth and 10th graders.

Verdict from voters: A higher threshold for taxes

GPT supporters misguided The Ferndale Scoping meeting on 11/29 was a circus, orchestrated by Gateway Pacific Terminal (GPT) pro-ponents who paid their allies to come early and get the lion’s share of speak-ing spots. Is this what they mean when they say ‘Good Jobs Now’? It is universally documented that coal is a toxic fossil fuel, harmful to the earth’s environment when mined, transported and then burned for fuel. The sabotage may have been an effort to avoid exposing the fate of Ferndale’s water supply, which had always come from the Nooksack River. In Decem-ber 2011, the PUD contracted with Pa-cific International Terminals to allow use of 5.3 million gallons of Nooksack River water per day, which is more than Ferndale uses in one day! Ferndale residents now have to rely on groundwater. As snowfalls de-cline and glaciers recede due to cli-mate change from burning fossil fuels, the Nooksack River may diminish. Will there be enough quality water for in-dustry and residents in Ferndale in the coming years? If 257 permanent jobs are more important than the health of our peo-

on taxpayers. In October, consensus among council members was reached and the city’s hotel tax went up to pay for expansion of the Spokane Convention Center and Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena. That vote was 6-1. As the legislature heads into its next session facing a $900 million shortfall, despite a $1.5 billion increase in tax revenue, lawmakers will be eager to hand off costs

to local governments. A charter change in Spokane and other cities to require a higher threshold for tax increases will give local taxpayers the opportunity to avoid getting stuck with the bill. Voters continue to make the call. They should be given the chance to adopt the reasonable supermajority policy at the local level.

Ericksen will co-lead committee in state Senate ‘Majority Coalition Caucus’ OLYMPIA — Sen. Doug Ericksen, R-Ferndale, has been chosen co-chair of the Senate Energy and Telecommunications Committee for the 2013 legislative session, which opens Jan. 14. Ericksen says he will be a part of a new bipartisan group known as the “Majority Coalition Caucus” in setting operating rules for the 2013 legislative session. Democrats outnumber Republicans, 26-23, in the Senate, but two Democrats, Tim Sheldon and Rodney Tom, part ways with their leadership on some issues. That has left leadership to be forged across party lines. “This is an unprecedented opportunity to change the way Olympia operates,” Ericksen said in a press release. “We’re going to be judging ideas based on their merit, rather than the political party they’re associated with. That’s important because the best solutions don’t come with an ‘R’ or ‘D’ next to them; they’re a product of everyone listening to each other and working together. “My legislative priorities will remain the same as they’ve always been — forcing government to live within its means and creating a sustainable budget based on the priorities of our state. “I’ve spent a lot of time over the past few months talking to people in Whatcom County and across Washington state about what they want from their government. The message I heard loud and clear is that people want solutions, not finger-pointing. It’s time to move forward with fresh ideas and this new model for state government.”

Northwest Indian Coll. receives $1.5 million for campus expansion

WHS also partners with WWU students for practicum instruction courseBy Brent Lindquist [email protected]

FERNDALE — There’s a lot happening at Windward High School these days, although much of it is not contained within the school’s walls. “It’s going well,” WHS Prin-cipal Tim Keigley said. “Things

are progressing well. We’ve got lots of good things going on.” Windward students just recently finished a food drive and a coffee fundraiser, com-plete with student-designed coffee labels and coffee from Hammerhead Coffee, located right across the street from the school. One of the school’s big-gest projects is the biennual community service day, which took place in November. WHS students traveled in groups to eight different service learn-ing locations: Head Start, the Nooksack Salmon Enhance-ment Association, the Ferndale Boys & Girls Club, the Whimps Mountain Bike Coalition, Whatcom County Search and Rescue, the Whatcom Road De-partment, the Ferndale Com-munity Camp and Conference Center, and Community Gar-dens.

ton University is another proj-ect, this one benefiting both schools. “We just finished our sec-ond fall quarter with 16 West-ern Practicum students that were on our campus twice per week, so that went well. West-ern worked with us to develop a cohort program for their practi-cum teachers, which is a step before they student teach. They actually teach a graduate-level methods course on our cam-pus twice a week. And then the practicum teachers work with our teachers in the classroom and teach lessons together. Each of those students has to put a minimum of 30 hours in in the quarter.” Keigley said this program is a huge benefit to Windward, as it puts talented staff on cam-pus on a regular basis. The school as a whole has seen a slight increase in enroll-ment this year. “Our enrollment is pretty steady,” Keigley said. “Right now, we have about 170 stu-dents. We have about 14 to 15 full-time Running Start stu-dents and about 25 students altogether that are doing Run-ning Start at least part-time or more. In terms of full-time students on campus, we have around 150. It’s about the same as last year. Our enrollment’s gone up a little bit from last year, maybe like 5 percent.” This is the second year at Windward’s North Bellingham Elementary School campus, and Keigley said their portion of the school has already seen some improvements. “The campus is looking better than it was the year be-fore,” Keigley said. “The dis-trict had a good portion of the school painted over the sum-mer. We took down the fence around the condemned area, which is still condemned, but at least we don’t have a fence around it.” Navigate to www.Ferndale.Wednet.edu to find more infor-mation about Windward High School’s upcoming events and activities.

LUMMI — Northwest Indian College has under-gone some major growth over the past eight years. On its main campus at Lummi alone, six new buildings have been built and another is nearly complete. Until recently, though, construction on two build-ings was stalled. NWIC still needed to secure more than $1 million before building could proceed. This fall, the college got the funds it needed when

the Lummi Indian Business Council voted to approve a $1.5 million contribution for construction of a new Li-brary/Technology building and for a Coast Salish Insti-tute building. “These two buildings are first-class facilities and I believe our students deserve the best, including the best facilities and resources,” col-lege President Justin Guillory said. “I want our students to feel proud about being here, to feel good about being

on campus, and I believe these buildings will help us provide that.” The Coast Salish In-stitute is more than just a building, Guillory said. It is a place that will help to pre-serve and revitalize Coast Salish culture by serving as a dedicated space where tribal language, history and culture will be taught. “It represents who we are as a tribal college,” he said.

Ferndale Wrestling: Battle testedprep wrestling

Engels, Alexander capture tournament titles at Battle at the Border SaturdayBy Dan Balmer [email protected]

BLAINE — The Lynden Lions may be state football champions, but when it comes to wrestling, Ferndale Golden Eagle supporters now have the bragging rights over their county rival. Ferndale senior Erik Engels’ pin of Lynden’s Ryan Meggison in the first round of the 170-pound final pre-ceded a dramatic overtime decision for his best friend, Sam Alexander, who won the 195-pound class title at the Battle at the Border Saturday. “I learned that wrestling with better guys makes you better,” Engels said, referring to the countless hours he has trained with Alexander. “As someone once said, as iron sharpens iron, one man sharpens another. By wres-tling with my best friend, we have made each other bet-ter.” In the grueling two-day, 23-team tournament, Fern-dale placed fifth as a team, compiling 42 wins to 30 losses for 138 points. Mount Baker scored 168 points for fourth place behind Blaine, which took third with 217.5. Lynden scored 65 points. Kentwood placed first with 234 points, while Todd Beamer scored 225 points to finish second. Ferndale sophomore Charnjit Mattu had an im-pressive showing at 182 pounds with two pins on Sat-urday. He finished sixth. After going undefeated in their respective weight classes to reach the finals, Engels and Alexander both wrestled their finals matches at the same time across from each other. Engels took care of Meg-gison midway through the

first round when he execut-ed a throw, headlocked his opponent and pinned him for the win. When the whis-tle sounded, Engels threw both of his arms in the air and yelled out to the large crowd watching. “I hit a throw I have never hit before,” Engels said. “My mentality was to give it my best shot, I have nothing to lose.” Ferndale fans’ atten-tion then quickly turned to the back right corner of the Blaine gym as Alexander battled his personal rival, Tyrel Cronk from Mount Baker, for the 195 title. In his previous matches against Cronk, Alexander had never defeated him. Cronk came into the tour-nament ranked no. 1 in state at 195; he won his first three matches via pin on Friday. Alexander took control of the match early with two takedowns and had a 5-2 lead in the second round before Cronk fought back in the third round. Tied at 5, Alexander scored an es-cape and takedown to go up 8-5 with less than a minute remaining in the deciding round. But in the final sec-onds, Cronk pulled out an escape and takedown to score three points to force overtime. “I felt I controlled posi-tion most of the time, some-thing I strive to do every match,” Alexander said. “I made one mistake in the last six seconds and allowed it to go to overtime.” Alexander opted to start with controlling posi-tion and wasted no time pushing his opponent near the out-of-bounds circle and dropped Cronk to the mat while dragging his feet in the circle to score the de-cisive takedown. Engels said that while it was painful to watch Alex-ander give up those points late, it was just as exhilarat-ing to see him drag his feet for the winning takedown. “It was amazing,” En-gels said. “I don’t know if he saw my match and just felt

really pumped up. For both of us to win our first titles together at the same time is awesome.” Alexander, who ad-vanced to his first tourna-ment final after pinning Al-len Tisinger of Anacortes in the semi-final, said winning a title gives him a boost. “I realized I’m a lot bet-ter wrestler than I give myself credit for,” Alexander said. “It’s nice to get that win in a critical situation.” Ferndale wrestling coach Caleb Schlack said both Engels and Alexander fought smart in every match and capitalized on the mis-takes made by their oppo-nent. “Sam had lost to that kid twice before, so it’s nice for him to get the monkey off his back,” Schlack said. “Not to mention this is the first time he has gone to the finals in a tournament and that’s huge especially since he went to state last year.” After Alexander’s vic-tory, the final match on Sat-urday captivated everyone

with an impressive display of strength, determination and will between heavyweights Titi Lamositele of Sehome and Blaine’s Mikey Antczak. Theirs was the last bout to finish and everyone in the gym crowded around to see the pair battle nearly nine minutes of overtime be-fore Lamossitele scored an escape to claim the heavy-weight title. Everett’s Jesse Lopez, the 138-pound champion, was named Most Outstanding Wrestler, with three pins and two decisions. Schlack said Ferndale could have had three cham-pions if fellow senior Kam Williams been able to com-pete in the tournament. Williams sustained a concussion during warm-ups prior to a 36-30 loss to Squalicum on Dec 5. Schlack said he was go-ing to bump Williams up to the heavyweight class in hopes of getting a pin, but had to substitute freshman Chris Hernandez, who got beat.

Following the disap-pointing result against Squalicum, Schlack said he was unsure what the car-ryover of his team would be heading into the tour-nament, but thought his younger wrestlers rose to the occasion. “I think for a lot of our freshmen (the tournament) opened their eyes so they understand what it takes to be a great wrestler,” Schlack said. “I’m very happy with how they wrestled. We are preaching be aggressive and never quit and it is great to see out of our young kids.” Hernandez won his first match Friday and won on a pin Saturday. Fresh-men Cory Slaughter, Taylor Bellefeuille and Sam Cleary all picked up their first var-sity wins over the weekend. Senior Riley Saenz won his first match at 152 pounds before losing his second and dropping into the con-solation bracket. Saenz won two more matches before losing 7-0 to Jordan Colom-bo of Rochester. Sophomore

Miguel Mungarro held on for a 5-4 decision over Lynden’s Christian Mouat at 152 be-fore being eliminated by Co-lombo 10-0. Engels also won the opening season Mariner Tournament in Everett, but he said that win cannot com-pare to the grand stage at the Battle at the Border. In the previous 170 final, Engels faced off against a junior var-sity teammate and the two thumb-wrestled for the win. At the Battle at the Bor-der, Engels pinned four op-ponents in his bracket, in-cluding Everett’s Anthony Hawkins in the third round of the semi-final match. Engels does not have long to savor his victory over Meggison, however. Fern-dale hosts Lynden today at 7 p.m. and Engels and Meg-gison will be pitted against each other again. He said he is ready for the rematch. Engels is organizing a food drive for his senior proj-ect at the wrestling meet. Ad-mission is four cans of food.

Golden Eagles make noise on hardwoodBoys win at Blaine, stumble at home to Anacortes

By Dan Balmer [email protected]

BLAINE — While the Battle at the Border wrestling tournament consumed Blaine High School’s newer spacious gymnasium, the boys’ basket-ball game between Ferndale and Blaine was moved inside the older Ken Waters gym Fri-day night. Playing in a gym similar to their own home court, the Golden Eagles made them-selves right at home building a 19-6 lead on the Borderites by the end of the first quarter. In the end, Ferndale was able to come away with its second win on the season, a 64-53 victory over Blaine. Senior forward Kendall Kelly capped the first-quarter dominance with one of his three treys. He led Ferndale

with 17 points. “Everybody played as hard as they could, on both offense and defense,” Kelly said. “It seemed to come naturally for everyone.”

Ferndale found success getting to the bucket. Senior post Cameron Massey scored 11 points and Lukas Melton added 10. Senior post Zack Berkompas scored eight points

off the bench. Blaine did trim the defi-cit to three points in the sec-ond quarter off a Ryan Wal-len three-pointer for his only points of the game, but Fern-

dale took control of the game in the second half. Massey said it took a team effort to stay on top of Blaine. “We pressed the whole game, maybe fouled more than we wanted to, but overall it was a good performance,” Massey said. “I am just trying to work hard and contribute as much as I can.” Even though this year’s basketball team is all new to varsity, Kelly said this group has been playing basketball together since middle school and as the season progresses, everyone will find their roles to help the team. On Monday night Fern-dale returned home to play the 3-0 Anacortes Seahawks. Anacortes forced Ferndale into 26 turnovers and defeated the Golden Eagles 64-49 to drop their record to 2-3. Freshman Austin Honeyc-utt led Ferndale with 16 points, while Kelly added 11 points. The boys host Mount Bak-er Friday night at 7:15 p.m. Girls continue winning start with wins over Blaine Friday, Anacortes Tuesday FERNDALE — In a match-up of two of the best teams in

the Northwest Conference, the Ferndale girls’ basketball team beat Blaine 47-40 Friday night to hand the Borderites their first loss on the season. While Blaine’s defense concentrated effort to dou-ble-team sophomore post Linsey Honeycutt and limit her inside scoring to just six points, the Borderites had no answer for Koral Weidkamp, who scored a career-high 16 points for the Golden Eagles. Ferndale took control early and built a 19-7 lead in the first quarter, which proved to be the difference in the game. Ferndale senior guard Taylor Reid scored 13 points and dished out five assists, while junior Hannah Carlson added seven points. Ferndale played against Anacortes Tuesday night and won 57-41 to stay undefeated at 4-0. While it is early in the season, only Ferndale and Burlington-Edison have per-fect records yet in the North-west Conference. The girls’ next game is Friday night at Mount Baker at 7:15 p.m.

In 1963 Wayne and Rose settled in Port Angeles where they opened their first an-tiques store, “The Yankee Trader.” In 1973 they relo-cated to the Sumas / Ever-son area and re-opened the Yankee Trader, until retiring in 2000. Wayne enjoyed grow-ing his hybrid tomatoes, at-tending to his rose gardens, playing dominoes, spending time with his family, playing his organ, discussing politics — he even ran for county commissioner in 1959 — and going on country drives, and well into his 80s you could often find him on his morning bike ride. But most of all, he loved his God and spending time with his dar-ling wife, Rose. Wayne will be greatly missed.

Grand opening of Regal Barkley Village definitely impressesBy Brent Lindquist [email protected]

BELLINGHAM — Ever since my dad took my brother and me to the Langley (B.C.) Colossus theater to see Bryan Singer’s original “X-Men” back in 2000, I have longed for a new movie theater in Bellingham. I’ll never forget the first time I walked into the Colos-sus. The stadium seats hooked me in, and the ear-shattering sound quality was further proof that this type of theater was the way of the future. Now, 12 years later, What-

com County has a theater like that to call its own. The Regal Barkley Village 16 IMAX & RPX opened its doors to the pub-lic Monday morning, giving moviegoers the chance to ex-perience this new venue at dis-counted prices while support-ing local charities such as the Boys & Girls Clubs of Whatcom County, the Bellingham Her-ald’s Extend-a-Hand and the Bellingham Food Bank. I toured the theater Mon-day morning and was extreme-ly impressed with what I saw. Aesthetically, the place looks a lot like the newer Regal theaters I’ve been to in the Seattle area. It’s colorful, with lots of reds and warm colors. It has a large concession area, a small video arcade (which includes an old-school “Ms Pac-Man” arcade

cabinet, much to my delight), and 16 screens of cinematic goodness. I usually don’t pay a lot of attention to the acronyms that follow these theaters’ names while looking at them on Fan-dango, but I did notice the let-ters “RPX” when I purchased my ticket for this week’s Thurs-day midnight showing of “The Hobbit.” I didn’t know what that meant until I visited the theater. First announced in 2010, the RPX (“Regal Premium Ex-perience) concept essentially involves a larger screen, better sound and, perhaps best of all, luxurious, high-backed seats. “The Hobbit,” billed as the the-ater’s premiere movie, will be shown in the RPX theater. It’s like Regal’s own custom version

of an IMAX theater, with far more comfortable seats. Just as impressive as the theater’s seats is its location. It is just off Barkley Boulevard, near businesses such as Hag-gen and Scotty Brown’s. Specifi-cally, there is a brand-new The Woods Coffee branch on the premises, fulfilling one of my theater wish list items: A nearby coffee shop. It would be difficult to fault a new theater in Bellingham, especially considering our cur-rent options. Bellis Fair, Sunset Square and Sehome have need-ed replacement for a long time now, and Regal obviously heard the call. Moviegoers in Bell-ingham should take joy in the fact that this new theater will be there to serve their movie needs for many years to come.

Barkley amenities just took a dramatic leap forward. (Brent Lindquist/Ferndale Record)

This newspaper participates in a statewide classified ad program sponsored by the Washington Newspaper Publishers Association, a statewide association of weekly newspapers. The program allows classified advertisers to submit ads for publication in participating weeklies throughout the state in compliance with the following rules. You may submit an ad for the statewide program through this newspaper or in person to the WNPA office. The rate is $255 for up to 25 words, plus $10 per word over 25 words. WNPA reserves the right to edit all ad copy submitted and to refuse to accept any ad submitted for the statewide program.
