Cameron Coupe rolls out some gear used in his coast-to-coast five-month walking trip. What once was shiny and new is now faded and torn, none more so than his last pair of sneakers.

NATIONAL TREK
returns home from
By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
Cameron Coupe spent the past five months walking from Seattle to New York.
That’s nearly 2,800 miles. It took seven pairs of shoes,
each with soles worn flat as a pancake; he filled one and a half composition journals with his adventures; and the shiny red cart he started out with, the faith-ful wheeled horse that lugged food, water, clothing, sleeping bags and tents, is now faded, torn and has a wobbly wheel.
The 19-year-old Freeland son left his freshman year at Washington State University, packed his cart with supplies and put one foot in front of the other. With his college pal Xander “Zan” Roman of Bellingham along-side, Coupe set out in June to walk from Seattle to New York
City to raise money for Seattle Children’s Hospital. But, the trek was mostly to combat a general state of unhappiness, he said, to give himself a break from the anxi-ety of trying to figure out “what I wanted to do with the rest of my life,” and to sate a wanderlust he didn’t know existed.
Out on the open road across 13 states, unknown terri-tory to the pair of 19-year-olds, they often found themselves picking a path and not looking back.
“You go confidently in the direction you chose to go,” he said.
Born and raised on Whidbey
Island, Coupe was ready for something new. He got what he wanted. As he described the trip in his mother’s Freeland home,
he said every mile was completely dif-ferent. That search for the
exotic is what drives people to do such trips,
Coupe said. Some miles
were more pleas-ant than oth-
ers, he admitted, especially crossing Montana in consis-
tent rain and wind. “We looked so stu-
pid sometimes,” he said, describ-ing regular days in the Big Sky State of waking up to sunshine
Transit hires Graska as interim chiefBy JESSIE STENSLAND
South Whidbey Record
Island Transit’s interim director will begin his six-month stint no later than Dec. 15.
The transit board approved a contract, in a 4-1 vote, to hire Kenneth Graska as the temporary chief in a meeting Friday marked by a strange little game of musical chairs. Both Oak Harbor Councilman Joel Servatius and Mayor Scott Dudley showed up to represent the city on the board, causing some confusion and tension.
“I don’t know why you chose to make a spectacle of it,” Servatius said to the mayor before agreeing to bow out.
“I’m not the one who is,” Dudley countered.Under the negotiated agreement, Graska will be a contract
employee and earn $62.50 an hour. He will also receive a hous-ing allowance of up to $1,350 a month, a car allowance of up to $400 a month and an airfare allowance of up to $350 a month.
After lengthy discussions about the budget Friday, the board went into executive session to discuss the proposed contract with Graska.
Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson, a mem-ber of the transit board, said the members were aware of Graska’s history in Snohomish County, where he resigned as director of Community Transit in the midst of a bribery scandal. He was never implicated in wrongdoing, but an audit harshly criticized his management style as “autocratic

Rules lack critical protections, group alleges
By JANIS REIDSouth Whidbey Record
Whidbey environmen-talists have made good on their threat to file legal action against Island County after commissioners’ adoption of a “bare minimum” fish and wildlife ordinance.
“With a lot of stuff they just went through the motions,” said Steve Erickson of Whidbey Environmental Action Network (or WEAN) Monday. “Whenever the county is confronted with something like this, they just delay, delay, delay.”
Erickson has accused the board of commissioners of creating a weak ordinance that runs afoul of the state’s Growth Management Act which mandates periodic updates.
For that reason, WEAN appealed the new county fish and wildlife habitat conserva-tion ordinance to the Growth Management Hearings Board on Nov. 13. This peti-tion is the first step in a long appeal process that can take up to six months before a decision is reached.
Dave Wechner, director of Island County Planning and Community Development, said this week that he believes the county did meet the state’s standards. Also, the regulations were drafted using a $250,000 grant that specifically called for a techni-cal advisory group made up of state and private entities,
one of which was WEAN.“WEAN was at the table …
on what to include and what not to include,” Wechner said.
Other Whidbey-based groups that participated include the Whidbey Island Conservation District, Orca Network, Whidbey Watershed Stewards and the Whidbey Audubon Society. Several state agencies were involved as well, from the departments of fish and wild-
life to ecology and natural resources.
This is not the first time WEAN has taken action against the county over envi-ronmental protections.
The group challenged the county’s across-the-board exemption of wetlands on farmland in 2000 and the Hearings Board agreed, and a handful of other growth- related regulations over the years.
The county’s critical areas ordinances, including the fish and wildlife components, were supposed to be updated by 2005, but it wasn’t complet-ed in time. WEAN then filed a petition in 2006 asking a court to compel the county to update its regulations accord-ing to state law.
After a lengthy appeals process, a Thurston County judge agreed with WEAN ear-lier this year that the county’s two critical areas ordinances had to be revised.
Now that the revisions have been completed, Erickson said the county has fallen short of the GMA require-ments. Specifically, Erickson said the county fails to protect critical areas by again allow-ing an exemption for some streams involved in agricul-ture.
“They kind of went below the bottom floor there,” Erickson said.
WEAN’s latest petition is critical of the county’s lack of protections for rare animals and habitat, like western toad and endangered prairies.
“Letting species and
habitats that are already in trouble, like the western toad and native prairies, decline further until they’re extinct is stealing from our kids,” said Erickson in a news release. “The more we degrade the diversity of life, the poorer our world becomes. It’s trad-ing short-term convenience for a few for long-term pov-erty for everyone.”
The petition also pans the county’s exemption for the removal of beavers and bea-ver dams, and takes issue with a number of the defini-
tions including those for “reg-ulated” and “non-regulated” streams.
WEAN is asking the hear-ings board to rule that the county failed to comply with state requirements, invalidate the offending regulations and order the county to become compliant within six months of the final decision.
“Nature doesn’t need us,” said WEAN member Marianne Edain in the press release. “We need nature.”

New chamber officers picked
New officers were selected for the Langley Chamber of Commerce on Nov. 13 during the group’s annual retreat held at South Whidbey Commons.
Nancy Rowan was selected as president, Tom Felvey as vice presi-dent, Aaron Simpson as treasurer, and Sandy Wainwright as secretary.
The chamber, which promotes business in Langley, includes board members Cynthia Tilkin, David Gregor, Fred Lundahl, Janet Ploof and Executive Director Marc Esterly.
The past president was
David Gregor. One of the major topics
of the meeting was the chamber’s new website, scheduled to launch early next year.
Winter is a busy time for the Langley Chamber. Ahead is the Lighting of Langley, the city’s annual holiday tree light-ing gathering at 3:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 29. The tree is decorated at Langley Park, located on Second Street and Anthes Avenue, to the singing of carols, hot cider and hot chocolate, Santa and alpacas dressed as rein-deer, and a scene from the upcoming Whidbey Island Center for the Arts holiday production, “A Christmas Story.”
Langley’s chamber also hosts a parade. This year’s event starts at 11 a.m. Saturday, Dec. 6,
and is open to all who wish to walk First and Second streets in a loop. Those interested in walk-ing as part of the parade may call organizer Fred Lundahl at 360-914-0984.
Shoppers are being enticed to Langley with a $1,000 prize. Every purchase of $20 earns patrons a ticket for the raffle to win the holiday shopping spree prize. The winner must be present at the drawing Dec. 20 to claim the prize.
Mukilteo ponders parking fees
Parking fees may come to the Mukilteo ferry area.
The Mukilteo City Council will hold a pub-lic hearing at its 7 p.m. Monday, Nov. 24 meeting to review adoption of paid parking program. The fees would be imple-mented at Lighthouse Park, along Front Street,
Park Avenue and First Street — north of the rail-road tracks.
The Mukilteo City Council Chambers are at 11930 Cyrus Way. Written comments may be sub-mitted for the hearing until 4:30 p.m. Nov. 24. For more information, call Patricia Love, Mukilteo’s community development department director, at 425-263-8041.
Sailor to flip tire for veterans
The Navy man who attempted to break a Guinness world pullup record in July has a new challenge on the horizon.
Michael McCastle, who completed 3,202 pullups before being hospitalized, will flip a 250-pound trac-tor tire 13 miles Dec. 20 to raise awareness for the Wounded Warrior Project.
“Being in the military, it’s something I’m pas-sionate about,” said
McCastle who works as an air traffic controller at Naval Air Station Whidbey Island. “I hope to simply bring awareness to the Wounded Warrior Project and their mission while testing my physical endur-ance, mental resolve and limits to my soul.”
His last fundraiser, where he aimed to break the pullup record of Navy SEAL David Goggins, pulled in more than $10,000 for the Wounded Warrior Project. It took Goggins three attempts to break the previous record and complete 4,030 pullups in 24 hours.
While McCastle will be taking donations for this event, he said the priority is to raise “a certain level of awareness” instead of meeting a fundraising goal.
McCastle’s course will be within Oak Harbor.

CORRECTIONIn the Wednesday, Nov. 19 edition of The Record, the editorial “Help South Whidbey to end homelessness” contained incorrect infor-mation. The South Whidbey Homeless Coalition meets at 12:30 p.m. the first Monday of each month at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland.
and putting on shorts and sunglasses only to be met with a downpour hours later.
The trip lasted 168 days, and the duo flew back in mid-October. During their trav-els the two teenagers slept a few yards from highways, in parks, in people’s yards and, when they were especial ly for tunate, p e o p l e ’ s homes.
T h e i r diet was consistent, but limited. They mostly ate cold canned foods — pasta, chili, fruit, tuna — bread and peanut butter, and dry ramen noodles.
Of all the high-calorie, low-cost foods, tuna was the one that wore out its welcome first. Coupe said that at some point in Montana, camping for the night outside a truck stop in their tent, he took a few bites of tuna, set it down and knew he wouldn’t eat any more of it the rest of the trip or after, for that matter.
“I don’t think I’ll eat tuna again soon,” he said.
When the 2013 South Whidbey High School graduate left, he was clean shaven with a tightly-cropped haircut. Now, he sports the remnants of a goatee and his once-buzz cut hair spills out from under his baseball cap in what he said would otherwise be a “wiry afro.” His weight and build hardly changed, however.
Despite their sometimes ragged appearance, Coupe found exactly what he was looking for — the kindness of strangers. Most nights, they slept in a tent outside. But Coupe said they often received help from distant relatives, friends of friends of friends and complete strang-ers, such as one woman who put them up in a spare bed-room for almost a week in
Illinois. “She wanted to adopt us
after,” Coupe said. “When we left a week and a half later, she checked in on us.”
Other people gave them food, money or toted their packs ahead 25 miles to give them a brief respite. The daily average they walked was 25 miles, though some days were far less, including the shortest travel day of 6
miles. A f t e r
e x t e n d e d b r e a k s , such as a t w o - w e e k stay in C h i c a g o , Coupe said
he and his travel mate found it far more difficult to resume the jour-ney.
“We forgot how long it takes to walk 25 miles … It’s the slowest transportation available,” he laughed.
He and Roman only got into a few arguments, mostly over directions, Coupe said. Though nothing got so bad that the other abandoned the trip.
“You’re not even with your spouse as much as we were with each other for five months,” he said. “Literally 24 hours, every day.”
They bonded over all seven Harry Potter audio-books played through one of their smartphones via a portable speaker, which were charged by a solar panel the size of a hardback book.
Somewhere in Montana, Coupe’s mom and stepdad
surprised them. Coupe recalled having a car come up behind them on a high-way, moving really slowly. Eventually, the car pulled ahead and waited, then drove at their pace. Finally, Coupe looked over and saw his mom. He was thoroughly surprised.
Coupe also found some direction. He was accepted to the University of Washington
in Seattle, and will enroll in January for the winter quar-ter. He still isn’t sure what he’ll study or what profes-sion he’ll pursue, but Coupe said he feels confident in the direction he will take.

Tips for traveling with your dogConsider car safety: When it comes to car trips, practice safety first. In some states, it is illegal for dogs to ride unrestrained in a vehicle. Be a considerate guest: Whether at a pet-friendly hotel or at the in-laws’ house, not everyone will love your dog as much as you do. Make sure your dog is well-groomed and don’t forget canine etiquette.Take first aid on the road: Accidents happen; be prepared with a first-aid kit and the mobile app offered by the American Red Cross, which contains veterinary advice for everyday emergencies.Avoid dietary changes: Stay as close to your dog’s regular feeding schedule as possible and avoid giving extra treats or different types of foods that may upset their stomach. Consult your veterinarian: One of the main reasons dogs get left behind is they suffer from motion sickness. Your veterinarian will recommend OTC or prescription remedies.

Help soughtJoin the coalition, help the homelessEditor,
National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week is Nov. 15-23. It will be recognized across America as communi-ties everywhere work to address the crisis in their towns.
Our neighbors here on South Whidbey are suffer-ing too — the South End is particularly plagued with a lack of jobs, low wages and absence of affordable housing. The community has, however, been active in working to diminish hunger. Three organiza-tions that are noteworthy in that effort are: Good Cheer, which provides food to more than 900 fami-lies per month; Whidbey Island Nourishes, sending youths home with more than 2,000 meals a month; and Island Church, serv-ing soup lunch to many each week.
Homelessness is still an issue that has yet to be addressed on the South End. Helping Hand and Opportunity Council, churches and social ser-vices all have valiantly attempted to place people who are homeless. But, with no shelter on the South End, the North End’s limited resources usually full and so few low-income rentals, people have either had to leave the area or, more often, camp out night-by-night in the woods, the back of their cars, someone’s couch or even in dumpsters. The majority of these folks are people who have lived here for years and call South Whidbey home. These are
our neighbors.The South Whidbey
Homeless Coalition, made up of persons in our com-munity who both serve the poor and those who want to see homelessness here a thing of the past, have been working hard for nine months to address this important issue. In 2013, over 300 adults and 80 children in the South Whidbey School district were counted among the homeless. The coalition is actively working to open a House of Hospitality here on the South End where families with children and vulnerable adults may find a time of rest and healing, as well as the support ser-vices necessary to move on into independent hous-ing. We also are working with a local church to open a cold weather shelter this winter.
We welcome the com-munity here on South Whidbey to be a part of our work. Coalition meetings are at 12:30 p.m. the first Monday of each month at Trinity Lutheran Church in Freeland. We also host dinners each month
from 3-6 p.m. on the third Wednesday, also at Trinity. Join us as we work to make South Whidbey a commu-nity of folks where others will say, “Look how they love one another.”
Blessings, JUDY THORSLUND

ResponseMost homeless are not mentally illEditor,
Thank you for high-lighting National Hunger and Homeless Awareness week in the editorial on Nov. 19. I especially appre-ciate the request to discard stereotypes of homeless people.
One of the fastest grow-ing sectors of homeless are families with children, according to the National Coalition for the Homeless. Homelessness is usu-ally caused by a series of events such as the sudden loss of a job exacerbated by a medical emergency. Or a single parent who is underemployed receives
an eviction notice because their rental home is in foreclosure or has sold. Lack of affordable housing makes it difficult for people to rehouse once they are homeless.
I was quoted in the arti-cle titled “Homelessness still a problem on South Whidbey, experts say.” The quote was used in a way that may perpetuate the myth that most home-less people are mentally ill. I would like to set the record straight and assert that the majority of home-less families in our com-munity are simply expe-riencing severe financial hardship, unable to find affordable housing, and in need of a hand up.

Transit board bungled interim chief selection
Editor
The board of Island Transit needed to find someone above reproach, someone with an unblemished history, to lead the beleaguered agency forward, even if it’s only on an interim basis.
They needed someone who could bring the community together, someone who is open and accountable.
Instead, the board went behind closed doors last week and chose a candidate for interim director who resigned from Community Transit in Snohomish County under the cloud of a bribery scandal 20 years ago. Kenneth Graska wasn’t indicted, but an audit report faulted his manage-ment style as autocratic and authoritarian.
Negotiations were completed this week, and the board voted to approve the contract Friday.
Graska may be a perfectly reasonable candidate. Coupeville Councilman Bob Clay, the chairman of the transit board, said Graska was open about his history and satisfied the board’s concerns. Graska is a great guy, he said.
Problem is, the public didn’t get a chance to hear Graska’s explanation and the board’s discussion because the board elected to do it all in secret. Executive sessions to discuss candidates for public employment are allowed under the Open Public Meetings Act, but board members can choose to let the public in.
It’s their choice, and in this case they chose poorly. Involving the public is a demonstration of trust and respect of public opinion, and confidence in the board these days is at an all-time low.
The transit board also didn’t release the names of the candidates, not even to board member and Oak Harbor Mayor Scott Dudley until the day before the interviews. Dudley’s request — and the South Whidbey Record’s request — for the three candidates’ resumes were denied.
Again, the board didn’t have to release them, but they could have. Other agencies simply alert candidates ahead of time that their applications will be public.
Everett Herald stories about Graska from 1993 paint a pretty dismal picture of his leadership. One story says he was angry at the newspaper for its coverage and so insisted that the news of his resignation be released to any media except the Everett Herald, the daily responsible for uncovering the problems at Community Transit.
Doesn’t exactly sound like open and accountable. It didn’t help that Graska didn’t return a call for com-
ment for a story about his background in Wednesday’s paper.
The Island Transit board of directors really dropped the ball on this one. If there was to be any hope of rebuilding public trust in their leadership and abilities, the board members neither took it seriously, nor did they demon-strate appropriate concern for public opinion.

FRED SMYTHOak Harbor
Firearms should be stored in gun safes Editor,
About one week ago I read a letter to the editor in The Record about gun ownership, specifically the responsibilities of securing those weapons properly.
I strongly support our Second Amendment right to own/bear arms. It is a very important right for the public as well as per-sonal safety. And to quote Thomas Jefferson, “The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”
Now very true, moreso than ever.
I own many dif fer-
ent types of firearms and absent the few I keep avail-able in case the need arises, the rest are stored in a very heavy, secured, fire-proof safe. I realize many people will say they cannot afford to buy a safe. If you can afford to buy a gun, you cannot afford not to buy a safe.
The incidents of gun violence more often involve people who illegal-ly obtained a firearm and not legal owners such as myself. Theft is one of the primary sources of these
illegally obtained weapons. As private citizens I believe we have an obligation to society to properly secure the weapons we own, to do the best we can to keep them out of the wrong hands from the neighbor’s curious child on up to the hardened criminal.
We do not have a gun problem. We have a peo-ple problem. Prevent the thefts and, for the love of God, someone in govern-ment please have the guts to pass laws that allow thor-ough, no-stone-unturned
background checks on all gun sales. I don’t give a hoot who that background check might offend. A men-tally ill person should not be able to buy a gun. It has happened many times and resulted in disaster.
I do not believe for a min-ute any law(s) are going to completely stop this prob-
lem. Good security prac-tices and legislation with some teeth can go a long way to preventing much of the violence. Remember, banning guns only helps the crooks.

Sheriff’s Report
LETTERSCONTINUED FROM A6
By BEN WATANABE South Whidbey Record
During every drill, new Falcon boys basketball head coach Michael Washington is close by, cheering, yelling, and clapping.
Lots of clapping. It is all part of a grand,
if at times exhausting, plan Washington has for the South Whidbey High School hoops program. He has something more than wins on his mind when he steps onto the court at South Whidbey High School.
Washington is trying to turn the cynicism of high school boys into enthusiasm and positive reinforcement — no simple task in the age of biting sarcasm, cyberbullying and being nonchalant.
But there’s Washington, South Whidbey’s sixth head coach in eight years, ready to take on perhaps the most daunting of challenges: a cul-ture change.
“We just have to see if the kids are going to buy into it,” said assistant coach Tim Collins, who leads the junior varsity team and has been on the coaching bench for three different coaches in the past four years. “But as long as we’re consistent as a coach-ing staff, the kids will have a choice.”
During a recent practice, all of Washington’s efforts were on display. Only days into the official season, the Falcons from freshman to senior know the call-and-response the for-mer Navy man expects after explaining a play or drill. After speaking, he asks, “Get it?”
The answer from the 31 Falcons is in unison and unan-imous.
“Got it!” “We have to teach them
that anything they do in life, they don’t just have to do it,” Washington said in a phone interview Thursday. “They have to have passion for it. I don’t believe in not putting my best foot forward.”
Then there’s the clapping. Tired of hearing players grumble after mistakes — their own or someone else’s — Washington has instituted an expectation to have the other teams give a quick three-clap salute as a means of picking up the other guy.
“If he sets that example, then he expects the kids to do it too,” Collins said. “You need to have some enthusiasm and some appreciation for why you’re out there.”
Near the end of a recent practice, he brings the players in around him. As they gather, they begin clapping. He urges them to let out a few “Yeahs” and “Oh yeahs” as they circle up to hear him stress the need for them to generate enthu-siasm.
“I can’t be the loudest person here,” he said earlier in the practice after a “Get it?” “Got it” that fell a little quiet, leading to a handful of pushups by the players, with Washington leading them.
Washington isn’t shy to completely stop a practice to make a correction or a point. When one player’s defense is suspect as another player moves without the ball toward the rim, he blows the whistle twice, halting the drill. He moves one player into the position of the offense, inserts himself in as the defender, and shows the dozen veteran Falcons how they should defend — not too close to get blown by, but not so far away as to allow a shot or a simple pass.
“When I correct people, that means I’m talking to everybody,” he said.
Yet, as they run through a fast-paced transition layup drill, Washington blows his whistle twice, halting practice. His message: don’t be afraid to make a mistake.
“They’re gonna make mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes,” he said in a later interview.
“I just want them to go out
there and just play. Know what we’re doing, and just play,” he added.
The culture of South Whidbey boys basketball has floundered for years. Turnover at the head coach-ing position since 2006 led to no coach in the past eight years staying for more than three seasons.
“Losing brings out the worst in everything. Winning fosters enthusiasm and fos-ters participation,” Collins said. “He’s heading in the right direction; it may not hap-pen in one year.”
Scott Collins, last year’s head coach, left in the offsea-son to take a different posi-tion. The Falcons finished 6-17 last year and have not had a winning record since the 2010-11 season, when Henry Pope took over until he died in June 2013.
To honor Pope, Washington has started the mantra of ask-ing “What’s your why? We do it for Coach Henry Pope!”

Ben Watanabe / The Record
Michael Washington implores Falcon boys basketball players to finish running lines at a recent practice.
South Whidbey’s School Farm will host a cel-ebration this weekend in honor of those who have and are currently working to make the farm a reality.
According to a recent news release, the event is a gesture of Thanksgiving to those who helped create the farm — from tilling the ground, build-ing the fence and teach-ing classes to erecting a hoop-house, spiffing up the Garden Resource Center and fundraising. It is also a gesture to those who harvest and serve the produce.
The celebration is from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22. at the School Farm behind South Whidbey Academy on 5476 Maxwelton Road.
The South Whidbey School District kicked off the garden program ear-lier this year and delivered its first batch of produce to the South Whidbey School District cafeterias in May.

year, the school gardens are supplying lettuce, kale, spinach, cucumbers, carrots, broccoli, toma-toes, beans, peppers, scallions, bok choi, winter squash and zucchini.
The two gardens — one at Langley Middle School and one at South Whidbey Elementary School – and the half-acre School Farm are operated in a collaborative effort between Good Cheer Food Bank, Goosefoot,
South Whidbey School District, Whidbey Institute and Whidbey Island Nourishes.
In addition to supplying food for the cafeterias, and a healthy snack for visiting students who delight in munching on veggies straight from the garden, the produce is also given to the Good Cheer Food Bank and Whidbey Island Nourishes.
The Goose Grocer is matching all donations
made to the School Garden Program up to $15,000. Funds raised will support program coor-dination in managing the gardens and working with teachers to develop curriculum, according to the press release. Marian Myszkowski, director of programs and fund devel-opment at Goosefoot, noted that $7,600 has been raised thus far. The goal, which organizers hope to meet by Dec. 31, is $30,000 — $15,000 from community donations and $15,000 from the Goose.
“This program is a great example of non-profits coming together to make something happen and making sure it stays sus-tainable,” she said.
The gardens also provide training for the Community Garden Leadership Training pro-gram in which volunteer
apprentices provide sup-port in the gardens.
First, second, fourth, fifth and seventh grade classes have made their
way into the garden thus far this fall as a part of their garden-based cur-riculum.

While youngsters on Whidbey anxiously await the arrival of rotund and jovial Santa Claus, children in Russia are anticipating the arrival of comparably slim-figured Father Frost, known as Ded Moroz and his grand-daughter, Snegurochka.
The Northwest Language Academy and Cultural Center is presenting the next installation in its Language of Food series: Yolka, a family-friendly celebration of Russian food, culture and holiday festivities on Saturday, Dec. 6. According to event coordinators, it is rumored that Ded Moroz and his companion may stop by for a visit.
In Russian, Yolka refers to a Christmas tree, accord-ing to Northwest Language and Cultural Center faculty member Masha Ellis, who immigrated to the United States from Moscow.
“The flavor of this day will be an Advent, Christmas cel-ebration,” she said.
Although Russia is pre-dominantly a Christian Orthodox country, the cultural cen-ter’s Yolka festivities will be secular and focused upon gen-eral folk traditions. In Orthodox tradition, Christmas is celebrated on Jan. 7, after the New Year. Since the fall of the Soviet Union, many non-Orthodox Russians have begun celebrating Christmas on Dec. 25. Dec. 6 is also significant, the date celebrat-ing patron saint of Russia, Saint Nicholas, who Ellis explained is also the proto-type for Ded Moroz.
While Ellis grew up in Soviet Russia, during a time in which many cultural and religious celebrations were
not allowed, she said she still remembered distinctly the scent of the decorative New Year trees, today known again as Yolka.
“I was born in the Soviet Union, so we didn’t celebrate Christmas,” said Ellis. “But my dad would bring in a New Year tree from outside … I remember the fragrance would fill the whole room.”
“We focus on the human aspect,” said Josette Hendrix, founder and director of the cultural center, explaining that the center aims for its festivities and lessons to reach beyond boundaries such as politics or religion.
Hendrix said that the Language of Food series came about from a realization that, while many individuals are eager to learn about other cultures, they may find a lan-guage course intimidating.
“They may not feel that it is possible to learn a new lan-guage or travel but they find value in experiencing other cultures through sharing food and getting together as a community,” said Hendrix.
Hendrix added that, since its inception 15 years ago, the series evolved to include
music, dance and other facets, explaining that these aspects of com-munity gatherings happen organi-cally. “We’ve
experienced over and over again — it happens almost magically — there is some-thing unique that gets trans-mitted by this coming togeth-er,” said Hendrix. “When we prepare food together, there is a natural opportunity for stories to be shared.”
Hendrix continued by say-ing that people often share stories about the origin of recipes, or the manner in which their grandparents or
ancestors once prepared the same dishes.
“It unfolds the story of those people, of that place on the earth, of that time in history,” she said. “It is really pretty profound.”
The festival takes place from 5:30 to 9 p.m., begin-ning with a holiday bazaar and social hour during which kvass — a non-alcoholic fer-mented beverage made from rye bread — and vodka will be served. The bazaar will be complete with traditional gifts which Ellis recently brought back to the states after a trip to Russia. Ornaments, matryoshka dolls and dolls dressed in national costumes and traditional Khokhloma crafts will be available for purchase. According to
Artrusse.ca, Khokhloma is an artistic painting style which originated in the Trans-Volga region; it received its moni-ker from the village in which it is believed the art was practiced in ancient times. Khokhloma is known for vivid flower patterns and red and gold colors applied to a black background. There will also be watercolor paintings, which Ellis said are presently quite popular in Moscow.
The traditional buffet will be prepared by a Russian family.
Ellis explained that there will be plenty of food and beverage options for those who, in accordance with Russian Orthodox tradition, are observing a pre-Christ-mas fasting period during
Advent. A team of Russian cooks
will share their stories and culture through a cooking class — a stand-alone event — preceding the festival from 2 to 5 p.m. Many of the foods produced in the class will also be incorporated into the feast later in the evening. The cost for the class is $35.
Ethnomusicology group Juliana and PAVA will per-form traditional songs and children of the Kovalsky Youth Group will perform a Vertep — a word which means cave in Ukrainian. The Vertep is a pageant which depicts the nativity scene and other mystery plays. The Kovalsky Youth Group will also be sing-ing Russian, Polish and
Ukrainian winter carols. “Through that perfor-
mance, children will show (without making a big deal of it) that these are basically the same traditions,” said Ellis. “These people did coexist for centuries.”
“This whole event is an opportunity for families and community members to come together and celebrate the coming of the holidays from a new perspective,” said Hendrix.
Admission to the Yolka is $65. Overnight accommoda-tions are available at the Northwest Language and Cultural Center guest house.

and intimidating,” according to a 1993 story in the Everett Herald.
Friday, Price Johnson said Graska was open with the board members about his his-tory in Snohomish County. She said they checked his references and did a back-ground check.
Both Price Johnson and Servatius, who participated in the interview process, said what swayed them was that members of staff thought highly of Graska after inter-viewing him.
“What weighed the most heavily for me was the feed-back from the boots on the ground; the people who will be working with him on a daily basis,” Servatius said.
Langley Councilman Jim Sundberg said he was also impressed with Graska’s
work managing transit for the Microsoft campus.
Coupeville Councilman Bob Clay outlined the exten-sive process the board undertook to find an interim director. He said the human resource director from the Whatcom Transit Authority volunteered to assist with the process, which he said was a great help.
In addition, staff from other transit agencies also assisted.
Three of the seven appli-cants were interviewed by the board and department heads at Island Transit dur-ing a marathon meeting Nov. 14. The candidates were even asked to run a simulated staff meeting.
“It was an extensive pro-cess,” Clay said.
Dudley was out of town and didn’t attend the six-hour-long interview process, so Servatius filled in for him.
Dudley and Servatius dis-
agreed, however, on how long the councilman was supposed to continue on the board and it took Island Transit’s attorney at the meeting to settle the matter.
Dudley had been appointed by the council, and therefore allowed to stay.
He voted against approv-ing Graska’s contract.
which showed three decks on the north side of the building extending toward Seawall Park. All of the deck space is contained within property owned by Kleiner and her husband Charlie, who did not attend the hear-ing. The Kleiners’ architect, Duaine Weston, said there was no functional change to the properties that would be exchanged.
“We aren’t blocking any access to the waterfront or doing anything that isn’t already there,” Weston said.
The land swap is neces-sary for the Kleiners to work on parts of the building, part of which is technically on a city easement. Langley Mayor Fred McCarthy said the property lines along First
Street were drawn in error at the time of its original plat-ting, leading to the overlap onto city property at the inter-section with Anthes Avenue.
Janice Kleiner said they are once again looking at renovating the building, and made a distinction from a true restoration. The decks, she said, would allow for out-door seating for a street-level restaurant, the basement-level rental space, and the upper-level residence. The red First Street facade would be preserved, as would the red westside facade, though it may be altered with more windows.
Such changes will likely result in the loss of the build-ing’s tax exempt and grant funding abilities. Currently, the Dog House Tavern is on the National Register of Historic Places under its original name, The Olympic Club. That comes with tax
credits and other potential monetary benefits, which Kleiner said she was willing to forsake to avoid having the building’s view of Saratoga Passage and the Cascade Mountains underutilized — her main focus in any work going forward.
Less than 700 square feet is being proposed for the transfer. The Dog House property would gain land adjacent to its west side, encompassing parts of the existing structure in places and the exterior porch and staircase. Similar to one pro-posed earlier by the city and abandoned by the Kleiners, wording had given them pause. Originally the trade proposal called for the city to receive an equal or greater amount of land. Now, the city is willing to amend that to be equal or greater value.
An appraisal of the three pieces of land — two on
its west side — one on its north side, is in the works. Mayor Fred McCarthy said the expense of the evalua-tion would be covered by the Kleiners, but did not know how much it would cost or when it would be completed.
The Kleiners argued that the property they were asked to give up, on the waterfront side, was far more valuable than what they’d receive. State law requires that the city receive compensation for the land. At the public hear-ing, McCarthy said it was an issue to be dealt with later.
“We don’t want to get hung up on that at this particular point,” he said.
Langley owns the land west of the building, which is part of a right of way to the public waterfront of Seawall Park. The steep hill is also used as an emergency access below several First Street buildings and down to the
waterfront park. Hearing of plans to keep
some of the “iconic” ele-ments of the building intact while preparing to open the long-vacant building in the city’s downtown core had the interest of several city council members.
“I’m very excited to see you doing something with
that place,” said Councilman Bruce Allen.
Only a few people attend-ed the hearing Monday. Langley’s public hearing on the proposed land swap, technically called a street vacation, was kept open until the council’s next meeting, Monday, Dec. 1.

As much as I love Thanksgiving, I have to say I love the after-Thanks-giving days equally, and in some ways, even more.
The Thanksgiving feast is always wonderful; fine food, good friends, beloved family and new memories to add to the ever-growing store of treasured times. But then, when all is quiet and I’m alone in the kitchen, I open the fridge and what I consider one of the best aspects of Thanksgiving is there, in abundance.
It’s called “leftovers,” and I can’t wait to begin dealing with the remains of the feast. Not immediately, of course, because as I’m perusing the contents of the fridge, I’m still so full from the original dinner that food in any shape, manner or form is of little interest right at that moment. But I also know what a good time I’m going to have over the next few days coming up with ways to transform those remains
into something delectable, and I won’t have to shop for food for at least a week, if I play my leftover cards well.
Yes, we all love the after-Thanksgiving turkey sandwiches, probably accompanied by some of the leftover mashed pota-toes and gravy and a bit of cranberry sauce, but it’s been so blasted cold this November, I’ve got soup on my mind: rich, hot soup such as a turkey and lime tortilla soup, maybe? Or perhaps an Asian style turkey noodle soup with lots of ginger and chiles to warm those heart cockles.
Turkey burritos with plenty of salsa and cilantro are certainly a tasty possi-bility for at least one night, but what about the leftover mashed potatoes? And the bowl of cranberry sauce perched on the refrigerator shelf next to the leftover stuffing? Well, I’m sure cranberry sorbet would be a welcome way to calm some of the heat from the burritos or the ginger/chile soup, so there’s a delicious and easy dessert for either of those meals. As for the mashed pota-toes, one of my favorite Thanksgiving leftovers is a mashed potato cheddar and herb gratin.
As always, I have one very fat file titled “Thanksgiving Leftovers” and that’s the file lying on my kitchen counter as I mentally try to decide which recipes to use this year. I’m aware that there
are people out there who find leftovers not only unappetizing but difficult to deal with, and if any of you are readers of this col-umn, I can only say, with my apologies, what’s not to love about leftovers, except of course for that ghastly green bean casserole, which is nowhere to be found in my fridge.
THANKSGIVING RECIPES
I won’t have room to give you all of the recipes I’ve mentioned above, but if you’d like to get any of them not given here, drop me a quick e-mail telling me which one(s) you’d like and I’ll zap it back to you. Meanwhile, here are a couple that may help you with your Thanksgiving leftovers.

Where is the Lord leading us?
South Whidbey Community Church will hold service at 10 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 23, at Deer Lagoon Grange Hall 5142 S. Bayview Road.
For Christians, follow-
ing the Lord is important, but how does a person know where the Lord is leading? Pastor Darrell’s message deals with the topic, “Follow the Lord’s Leading.” An adult Bible study begins at 9 a.m. The congregation is also encouraged to bring paper products and
personal items for the next couple of weeks to donate to Good Cheer.
South Whidbey Community Church is an independent Bible Church that gathers to worship God, study His Word and encourage one another in Christian-living.
For details, call 221-1220 or visit www.south whidbeycommuitychurch.com.
The power, beauty and miracle of life
Unity of Whidbey will hold service at 10 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 23, at 5671 Crawford Road.
Rev. Joanna Gabriel’s talk, “Life As A Blessing” will discuss the power and the beauty and the miracle of life when peo-ple live it as a continuous blessing.
Mel Watson will share
her musical inspiration while QuinSerra Stanley will be the Platform Host.
For details, visit www.unityofwhidbey.org.
Worship with Whidbey Quakers
“We are a people that follow after those things that make for peace, love, and unity,” according to early Quaker Margaret Fell.
Whidbey Island Friends Meeting (also known as Quakers) holds its regular gathering for worship 4 to 5 p.m. every Sunday at the Unitarian Universalist building, 20103 Highway 525.
The group meets in silent worship together and worship may include spoken messages.
For details, visit www.whidbeyquakers.org or email Tom Ewell at [email protected].
A time to pause, be grateful
“Thanksgiving and being grateful” is the topic of the next audio chat at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Nov. 25, at Christian Science Reading Room, 721 SW 20th Court, Oak Harbor.
For many people, Thanksgiving is a time to pause and to be grateful for all the good they experienced over the past year. But what about specifically giving gratitude to God? Finding genuine gratitude in our hearts for God and God’s goodness in our lives not only makes us happier, it uplifts, transforms and heals us.
Join this chat with your questions or you may log on to www.jsh-online.com/chats.
Improving every aspect of life
The Christian Science Society will hold service at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 23, at 15910 Highway 525 just north of Bayview and across from Useless Bay Road.

Following brief read-ings from the Bible and Science and Health, the service will be opened for those attending to share their testimonies, grati-tude, and Thanksgiving remarks.

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.

By LAURA CANBYSpecial for The Record
When this year’s Mobile Turkey Unit volunteers com-plete their goal of delivering about 500 Thanksgiving dinners on south and central Whidbey, it will also likely be the last time for one of its longest-serving volunteers: James Canby.
Canby was only 7 years old when he and his father joined Mobile Turkey Unit founder Tom Arhontas and a handful of other volunteers to cook and deliver 65 meals that first Thanksgiving 16 years ago.
The community effort was the brainchild of Tom Arhontas, a popular South Whidbey School District bus driver who died in 2008 at age 78. He founded the Mobile Turkey Unit in 1999 because he believed that everyone deserved to have a Thanksgiving dinner. He was especially concerned about seniors living alone, who wouldn’t cook a dinner just
for themselves, the homeless and families in need.
Canby, a graduate of South Whidbey High School
and now a second-year student in Skagit Valley College’s Culinary Arts Program, is taking time off
from school to assist Mobile Turkey Unit head chef Al Jones in cooking 26 turkeys in the kitchen at St. Hubert Church in Langley.
Canby remembers when the event was held in the school district’s bus barn kitchen with Arhontas serv-ing as lead cook.
“Tommy was a great guy
and always full of energy,” Canby said. “He would cook turkeys, hams, and sometimes even lamb for the dinners, and would take the time to teach me while he was cooking.”
Over the years Canby has held just about every position for the event, from cutting pies and working the line, to attending organization-al meetings and planning logistics, to peeling some of the hundreds of pounds of potatoes donated by the Knights of Columbus.
“I still remember cutting pies with Wren MacLean — he would cut them and I would spray each slice with whipped cream,” he said. “My favorite part, though, was just working with my parents as a family; helping my father plan the delivery routes, or delivering meals with my mother.”
He recalled the smiles on people’s faces when he and other volunteers arrived with their Thanksgiving dinner, particularly one elderly man in Possession Shores who had trouble walking. They ended up staying and visiting with him awhile.
“I later learned that he passed away several months later,” he said. “It felt good to know that he had one last nice Thanksgiving dinner.”
“Another time we were walking up a driveway and a little girl opened the door and yelled out, ‘Now it’s Thanksgiving, everybody! The turkey’s here!,’ ” Canby recounted.
Over the years the event has grown to include more than 150 volunteers, includ-ing several youth groups and families with children.
“We have always encour-aged young people to be involved with the community event,” said Art Taylor, the event’s chairperson and chief coordinator, himself a volun-teer since 2000. “It gives kids the experience of serving others in their community, and that’s a big part of what Thanksgiving is about.”
Volunteers can sign up on the Mobile Turkey Unit’s website at: www.mobiletur-keyunit.wordpress.com.
Last year the organiza-tion delivered 500 meals on south and central Whidbey, and this year’s numbers are shaping up to be about the same.
“We bring meals to the elderly, the disabled, people who are ill, families who can’t afford to cook a full din-ner with all the trimmings, the homeless, and people
who work on Thanksgiving such as public ser-vants, ferry workers, gas station atten-dants, etc.,” Taylor said.
Over the years the event was held in the bus barn, then the Eagles’ Aerie, and for the third year now, is being hosted by St. Hubert
Roman Catholic Church in their kitchen and community room. All participants are volunteers, and the food is funded by private donations and contributions from sev-eral local churches.
Canby, who married in October and now lives in Anacortes, doesn’t know where he will be employed after graduation, so is treat-ing this year’s event as his last.
“Wherever I am, I hope there will be an opportunity to do something similar to the Mobile Turkey Unit. It’s a big part of Thanksgiving for me. In fact, I can’t imag-ine what Thanksgiving would be without it,” he said.
