When Lynda Eccles was first diagnosed with breast cancer, she’d already lost one sister to the disease and watched another go through the same diagnosis six months prior.

“When my doctor first told me my initial reaction was, ‘Get it out of me,’ ” she said. “I wanted it gone.

“It was back when the 'C' word was terrify-ing. I was absolutely terrified, but not once did I think I was going to die. I eliminated that thought from my head.”

Throughout the experience, Eccles said she found a strength she never knew she had. Much of that strength, she said, was with the support of friends and family.

Her sister having just gone through it helped, she said, and provided the support she needed. Eccles is originally from England and moved to the states after her first sister was di-agnosed. She moved to Coupeville eight years ago and serves as the executive director of the

Coupeville Chamber of Commerce.“While thousands of miles apart, we were

constantly on the phone to each other com-paring our treatments and how we felt,” she said. “Being so far away from all your family when you go through something like this is difficult, but I am so lucky to have a wonder-ful and supportive husband and two amazing children and the support of friends surround-ing me.”

Eccles’ first brush with cancer required a lumpectomy and chemotherapy and radiation treatments.

While everyone’s experience with treat-

ment differs, Eccles’ response with chemother-apy wasn't the best.

During the time, whenever she could, Eccles fought for normalcy, going to work on good days.

“With a woman, it’s all the emotions that go through it” she said. “You just got to fight, not let the negative get to you.”

When Eccles lost her hair, she wore wigs and made a point to have fun with it.

“What helps is if you find some humor out of something,” she said. “I really, honestly be-

When Lynda Eccles was first diagnosed with breast cancer, she said she found a strength she didn’t know she had. With a positive attitude and the support of her friends and family, she survived cancer not just once, but twice.

Positive attitude key in survival

Four apply for port’s top spotBy Megan HansenCo-Editor

Port of Coupeville commissioners should be choosing a new executive direc-tor next month.

The port received four applications for the position and plans to interview the candidates during the next regular meet-ing at 10 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 12 at the Coupeville Library.

After interviewing the candidates pub-licly, the board will convene in executive session to discuss whom to choose, Com-missioner Marshal Bronson said.

Current executive director, Tim Mc-Donald, was hired in December 2013. He submitted his resignation this summer for personal reasons and said he’d stay until the end of the year.

Of the four candidates, two are famil-iar with the port.

Damon Stadler, current handyman for the port, submitted his application. In his cover letter, Stadler suggested combining his current position and the executive di-rector position.

Citing his field experience and current relationships with suppliers and officials, Stadler suggested it would be a good fit.

“I believe with the proper adjustments this could aid in the port’s needs,” he said.

Current port volunteer David Day also applied for the position.

Day has currently been working on an application for the National Heritage Preservation Grant for the port.

He has also been volunteering and shadowing McDonald on various projects including the fuel float replacement proj-ect, drafting the request for proposals for Greenbank Farm management and other various port operations.

In his various efforts, Day says he has gained an understanding of how the port operates with its mission, vision and goals.

Day has been involved previously in the community, serving on the Town of Coupeville’s Planning Commission, the Ebey’s Forever Fund Board, and the Friends of Ebey’s Landing National His-torical Reserve, serving as board presi-dent.

“I feel that the position of executive director for the Port of Coupeville offers

The Port of Coupeville will go into con-tract negotiations with the Greenbank Farm Management Group for future oversight of the farm.

The management group submitted the only proposal to the port to manage the farm after its current contract ends in June 2015.

Requests for proposals ended in Septem-ber.

Commissioners for the port said they felt the proposal was complete and addressed all of the concerns outlined in the request.

The other option is for the port to hire em-ployees and run the farm itself, said Commis-sioner Bill Larsen, but the port isn’t really in the position to do that.

Commissioners directed Executive Direc-tor Tim McDonald to start contract negotia-tions with Judy Feldman, director of the man-agement group.

Within the proposal, the management group proposes shifting some of the previous responsibilities and financial arrangements back to the port.

In the current contract, the management group signs and collects all lease agreements at the farm.

The new proposal recommends the port hold all leases. The management group would act as a property manager to collect those fees, but they would be deposited back into port coffers.

Commissioners said they hope to have an agreement by the end of the year, prior to Mc-Donald’s departure.


Greenbank Farm may see more action on its community solar project come 2015.

Solar Horizon LLC is partnering with Whidbey Sun and Wind to figure out a solu-tion for remaining un-utilized space in the farm’s solar array.

Greenbank Farm has six one-sixth–acre lots dedicated to community solar.

Currently there are three groups leasing those lots.

Cascade Community Wind and Solar out of Bellevue leased three lots in 2011.

Island Community Solar, a Whidbey Island based group, leased two lots in 2010

and in mid-2012 Newport Partners leased one lot and took over two lots from Cascade Community Wind and Solar.

The port charges $200 per lot, per year and also receives 1 percent of the leasees’ gross energy sales as well as 1 percent of the state and federal incentives they receive.

Of the six lots, only three of them are cur-rently operational.

Newport Partners is not renewing its lease, which ends at the end of 2014.

David Tomlinson from Solar Horizon spoke with Port of Coupeville commission-ers last week, saying he’d like to open discus-sions with the port and have some kind of plan to present at the November port meet-ing.

One of the best ways to beat breast cancer is early detection.

The American Cancer Society recommends getting mammograms at the age of 40 and getting regular ones done starting around the age of 50, but there’s a lot more to detection than that.

One of the most impor-tant pieces of advice Renee Yanke, Whidbey General Hospital’s cancer program manager, had to offer was to make sure to do a month-ly self exam to check for ir-regular lumps in breasts.

“It’s really about being familiar and knowing and noticing what’s different,” Yanke said.

She also recommended pre-menopausal women do the monthly exam the week

after menstruation.There are different pat-

terns and techniques for self exams, and there are instructions available to download at the American Cancer Society website.

Yanke said there are three steps to breast cancer detection, including the self exam, mammograms and a clinical exam done by a doctor.

For mammograms, Yanke said women should get an order for one from their doctor, to ensure that somebody will be receiving the results to pass along to the patient.

Local Soroptimist In-ternational groups offer a service to pay for mammo-grams for women who oth-erwise wouldn’t be able to afford the procedure.

But mammograms aren’t the only detection test of-

fered at Whidbey General Hospital.

Last year, after organi-zations like the Soroptimists and other local fundraising groups raised money for it, the hospital added breast MRI capabilities.

“An MRI gives a bet-ter picture of what’s going on with the breast tissue,” Yanke said.

In 2014, from the start of the year through the end of September, 21 breast MRIs were done, more than the expected one or two a month.

Not only does a breast MRI provide a better pic-ture than a mammogram, but patients are also able to get biopsies done at the same time, if necessary, something that has already happened twice in 2014. This means that, when nec-essary, patients don’t need

to go in twice for the tests.“It’s really beginning to

be much … more valuable, so it’s being used more and more,” Yanke said of the breast MRI.

Another resource of-fered by the hospital is the Washington State Breast, Cervical and Colon Health program, which is a state-funded program that screens qualified women for breast and cervical cancer, and both men and women for colon cancer.

“It’s really great that we’re able to provide all these services right here on the island,” Yanke said, “without having to send people off the island.”

This week you’ll notice our front page shares a sto-ry of survival of one of Coupeville’s recognizable faces.

Coupeville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Lynda Eccles shares her experience battling breast cancer, not just once, but twice.

In her tale, she shares her struggles and how a posi-tive attitude and the support of her family helped her through.

Thank you, Lynda, for sharing your story.Also in this edition, you’ll notice an emphasis on

pink and a special ad grouping on page 16.It’s all in observance of National Breast Cancer

Awareness Month. From the NFL to individual social media pages

and from sports jerseys to Band-Aids, the world turns pink during October in a unified effort to raise aware-ness about breast cancer and raise money in hopes of saving lives.

During October, the Whidbey Examiner is donat-ing $5 for each one-year subscription, and $10 for each two-year subscription, to Soroptimists International of Coupeville’s mammogram program. You’ll find the form on page 6 of today’s newspaper.

Also, 10 percent of the net proceeds from “Pink” ads in this edition of the Examiner will be donated to the Soroptomists’ mammogram program.

The program helps to pay for mammograms for women who would otherwise be unable to afford one.

According to statistics, mammography has helped reduce breast cancer mortality in the United States by nearly one-third since 1990.

According to the National Cancer Institute, early detection of breast cancer with screening mammogra-phy means that treatment can be started earlier in the course of the disease, possibly before it has spread.

Results from randomized clinical trials and other studies show that screening mammography can help reduce the number of deaths from breast cancer among women ages 40 to 74, especially for those over age 50.

Getting a high-quality screening mammogram and having a clinical breast exam on a regular basis are the most effective ways to detect breast cancer early, ac-cording to the Institute.

Checking one’s own breasts for lumps or other unusual changes is called a breast self-exam, or BSE. This type of exam cannot replace regular screening mammograms or clinical breast exams. In clinical tri-als, BSE alone was not found to help reduce the num-ber of deaths from breast cancer.

The following locations on Whidbey Island offer mammogram screening:

n Oak Harbor Naval Hospital, 3475 N. Saratoga St., Oak Harbor. Phone is 360-257-9630 and the web-site is www.med.navy.mil

n Whidbey General Hospital, 101 N. Main St., Coupeville 98239. Phone is 360-678-7656 and the web-site is www.whidbeygen.org

During the month of October, think pink — and think mammogram. If for no other reason, women should get one for peace of mind.

It’s breast cancer awareness month

Group’s affiliation is suspiciousEditor,

I recently became aware of issues concerning the U.S. Navy’s use of the auxiliary airfield outside of Coupeville by a group calling itself Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve, a group that seems to have been created by www.moveon.org

I sent them a letter stating my opposi-tion to their intended goals of forcing the U.S. Navy to end air operations at this facility.

The following is the content of that email:

You can gather from my email address ([email protected]) that I am a retired Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician — U.S. Army, by the way. What is not evi-dent is that I was raised in Coupeville and

spent most of my childhood in Coupeville. My grandmother owned and operated the restaurant, The Seagull, where I worked as I grew up.

To get a proper perspective, I have been very active in environmental issues after I retired from active service — and not from the side of the Department of Defense.

I would ask you to Google my name to detail my involvement.

My concerns involve a balanced ap-proach. The issue(s) surrounding the U.S. Navy’s use of the approach strip dates back when I was growing up in the 1960s. Back then, the anti-war movement, along with other progressive and liberal groups, tried to shut down operations.

They failed, mainly because the gen-eral population’s demographics were strongly conservative.

The demographics have changed with

the influx of a more liberal set of people coming in from places like Seattle.

I might want to add at this time that, while I am considered as an environ-mental activist, I am an American and a former serviceman who realizes the need for military training. Hence, the balanced approach. The Navy’s usage of this facility is needed.

I find the organization’s “MOVEON” involvement in trying to shut down the Navy’s Air Operations very suspicious. The statements on their website indicating your support of the U.S. Navy I find par-ticularly offensive.

Over the course of many years, I have personally found that www.moveon.org is anti-military both in ideology and in ac-tion.

THE NAVY HAS ISSUED A REVISED NOTICE OF INTENT TO PREPARE AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR EA-18G GROWLERAIRFIELD OPERATIONS AT NAVAL AIR STATION WHIDBEY ISLANDAND IS RE-SCOPING THE EIS EFFORT CURRENTLY UNDERWAY. YOU ARE INVITED TO AN OPEN HOUSE SCOPING MEETING TOSUBMIT COMMENTS ON THE REVISED EIS SCOPE.

THE NAVY PUBLISHED A NOTICE OF INTENT (NOI) TO REVISE THE SCOPE OF THE ONGOING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT (EIS) for EA-18G Growler Airfield Operations at Naval Air Station (NAS) Whidbey Island, Washington, and to announce public scoping meetings in the Federal Register on October 10, 2014. The EIS will now address the environmental impacts associated with the potential addition of up to 36 EA-18G Growler aircraft.

Last September, the Navy began an EIS to evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with the addition of two new expeditionary squadrons and additional aircraft to the training squadron. Scoping was conducted between September 2013 and January 2014 on that proposed action, and open house scoping meetings were held in December 2013 to discuss the proposal.

During spring 2014, the Chief of Naval Operations submitted an Unfunded Requirements List as part of the President’s Budget for Fiscal Year 2015 that included a request to purchase 22 additional Growler aircraft. While it is unclear whether more Growlers will ultimately be procured, the Navy is electing to analyze the potential for these aircraft in order to be proactive and transparent. Therefore, a new scoping process is needed and has been initiated based on the proposed action.

THE NAVY IS HOLDING THREE OPEN HOUSE SCOPING MEETINGS to provide members of the public with the opportunity to submit comments on the scope of analysis and content to be addressed in the EIS. Each of the scoping meetings will be informal and consist of information stations staffed by Navy representatives. Members of the public may arrive at the open house scoping meetings anytime between 4 p.m. and 8 p.m. on one of the following dates andlocations:

The public scoping materials are available for review at http://www.whidbeyeis.com.

THE NAVY IS REQUESTING AND WELCOMES PUBLIC COMMENTS.* The public comment period for the EIS was initiated with the publication of the NOI in the Federal Register. Written and oral comments may be submitted at the scoping meetings. Written comments may also be submitted online at the project website or mailed to:

EA-18G EIS Project ManagerNaval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Atlantic, Attn: Code EV21/SS6506 Hampton Blvd., Norfolk, VA 23508

All comments must be postmarked or received online no later than November 24, 2014.

*The names, street addresses, email addresses and screen names, telephone numbers, and other personally identifiable information of individuals who provide comments will be kept confidential and will not be released, unless otherwise specifically indicated by the commenter or as required by law.The city, state, and five-digit zip code of individuals who provide comments may be released.

Live the Island Dream…

Here’s a little story about a great partnership in our little community.

Almost 13 years ago, a small group of people de-cided to put together a food bank that would serve Cen-tral Whidbey Island.

They didn’t know how big the need would be, and they didn’t know if the com-munity would support them.

They didn’t have any money, and they didn’t have a loca-tion to start a food bank.

They bought a few bags of groceries with their own money and put a tiny ad in the paper.

Greenbank Farm let them use, literally, a closet to store their food and get started.

It was too small, but it was free.

That was the beginning of Gifts from the Heart food bank.

Fast forward a few years, and we were giving out bags of food from a folding table set up behind the fire trucks in the fire station.

When the citizens of our community passed a levy to build a new fire station, we were able to work out a deal with then-Fire Chief Joe Biller and the fire commis-sioners to rent the old build-ing for the food bank.

Over seven years ago,

a small group of people decided to start a Boys & Girls Club that would serve the Coupeville School Dis-trict.

They didn’t know how big the need would be, and they didn’t know if the community would support them.

They didn’t have any money, and they didn’t have a location to start a club. They asked the food bank if they could share the old fire station.

The space was too small, the parking wasn’t great, there was no room for the kids to play outside, but it was a place to get started.

All of us at the food bank remembered when we were in that exact same position and the Greenbank Farm and Fire District came to our aid to help us get started.

So we said, “YES!” to the Boys & Girls Club, and

a wonderful partnership was born.

Fortunately for both of us, when the Catholic church bought the property, they agreed to continue to rent to both groups while we looked for a new home.

Both organizations have pushed the capacity of the shared building to the max.

The food bank is serving more clients and needs room for workspace, more food storage and more refrigera-tion.

The Boys & Girls Club needs room for equipment, space for the staff and vol-unteers, and, most of all, room for the boys and girls who want to use the Club and their many wonderful programs.

When a community member generously donated a piece of land to build a new Boys & Girls Club, the club, in turn, generously in-vited the food bank to move

with them. Both organizations serve

a need in this community. And now both organiza-tions need your help to build a building that we can call home for years to come.

Any money donated to the Boys & Girls Club capital campaign will also benefit Gifts from the Heart food bank.

I respectfully ask that you consider donating to this important building fund so that we, in turn, can continue to serve our com-munity.

n Molly Hughes is presi-dent of Gifts from the Heart, which shares space at the current Coupeville Boys and Girls Club. The club is cur-rently running a capital cam-paign to raise money for a new building. For more infor-mation about the campaign and club, go to www.coupevil-leboysandgirlsclub.org

Torchlight Parade Saturday, Oct. 25.

Changes made to Haunting of Coupeville events schedule

By Janis ReidStaff Reporter

The two candidates running for Island County District 3 seat offer differing views on top county issues like the legalization of mari-juana and dealing with recent problems at Island Transit.

Democrat Karla Jacks, of Camano Island, said that she would have done the same as the board did earlier this year and allowed for the sale of recreational marijuana in Island County.

“I would have because the voters of Island County over-whelmingly supported it,” Jack said.

Rick Hannold, a Repub-lican who lives on North Whidbey, said he would ab-solutely have not supported recreational marijuana in the county.

“I don’t like any industry that makes its money off the vices of others,” Hannold said. “I personally think that marijuana is an entry-level drug. If I had been sitting on the board of commissioners

when they decided … I would have voted ‘no.’”

The District 3 seat was left vacant in May when then-commissioner Kelly Emerson suddenly gave a seven-day notice. Aubrey Vaughan, a candidate for commissioner in the primary election, was appointed to fill her seat through November.

Vaughan, a Republican, lost against Hannold in the primary.

Among the responsibili-ties of two members of the Island County board is to serve on the board for Island Transit, an organization cur-rently wracked with financial turmoil that resulted in route cuts and the layoffs of 22

people.Results of a state audit

are expected to be released Oct. 24.

If elected and serving on the Transit Board, Jacks said she believes the existing board is working in a good direction and she would sup-port their efforts.

“It’s important that, if I’m going in, I would work with the process they’ve already started,” Jacks said.

“I appreciate that they are doing their due diligence to find out what happened but are moving forward. I would work with them as a team to implement the objectives that came out of the audit.”

Hannold said he believes that the errors found in finan-cial reporting and budgeting means that the organization needs an overhaul.

“It’s in such a disarray right now it’s going to take a strong, strong leader to come in as director and be rebuilt from the ground up,” Han-nold said.

“I think the oversight needs to be there, they need to be more involved.”

A retired Navy chief, Hannold is a strong support-er of the Navy and its opera-tions both at Ault Field and Outlying Field Coupeville.

Some Central Whidbey residents have complained about the noise generated by the Navy’s new EA-18G Growler, which replaced the EA-6B Prowler, and the Citizens of Ebey’s Reserve, or COER, filed a lawsuit to end

the touch-and-go practices at OLF Coupeville.

An Environmental Im-pact Statement on the Growl-er is currently being prepared by the Navy.

“Even if it wasn’t for the fact that they are such an eco-nomic driver for the county, I know first hand the type of training they get,” Hannold said.

Hannold said the combi-nation of over water, moun-tain and desert training avail-able in the Pacific Northwest provides essential experience for pilots.

“The whole area is unique … we offer that strategic op-portunity,” Hannold said. “(The base) sits strategically on the Asian Pacific Rim and for the country as a whole it’s a good base to have.”

Jacks said she supports the Navy and its need to properly train its pilots, but isn’t taking a strong stance on OLF Coupeville.

“I support our Navy, I support our military, I sup-port the naval air station and whatever they need to do to train their pilots,” Jack said.

Jacks said she is “more than happy to listen to peo-ple’s concerns, but we have to be able to work together.

“I know that’s not what they want to hear,” Jacks said.

“They all want me to come down on this side or that side, but I think that’s a disservice.”

Island County Parks Department is pro-posing the demolition of a concrete struc-ture at Driftwood Beach Park near Coupe-ville.

The building was relinquished by the U.S. Navy to the county several years ago and has been used by the Sheriff’s Depart-ment for storage, according to a memoran-dum from Parks Superintendent Jan van-

Muyden.The storage building is no longer needed

and the fences are falling into disrepair.Demolition and removal of the structure

would decrease the county’s liability expo-sure at this park, improve the scenic land-scape and restore the beach to its natural state, vanMuyden said.

By Jim WallerStaff Reporter

Avenging a loss to Coupe-ville earlier this season, the Port Townsend football team defeated the visiting Wolves 56-20 Friday, Oct. 10, and dropped Coupeville out of first place.

The Coupeville tennis team won its third straight match, blanking Chimacum 7-0; the volleyball team lost to Bellevue Christian; and the soccer team tied one and lost one over the last week.

FootballRedhawks roll by Coupeville

The first half was a shoot-out and the second half a shutout for Coupeville.

The loss dropped the Wolves’ Olympic League re-cord to 2-2 (3-3 overall) and allowed Port Townsend (3-1, 4-2) to keep pace with Kla-howya (3-1, 3-3) at the top of the standings with two con-ference games left.

Coupeville handed Port Townsend its only league loss, 29-21, Sept. 26.

The Wolves will try to snap their two-game losing skid when they head to Chi-macum at 3 p.m. Friday, Oct. 17. Coupeville defeated the winless Cowboys (0-4, 0-6) 48-24 Sept. 19.

In last Friday’s game, each team scored twice in the first quarter, making it 14-14, then Port Townsend, up 28-21, scored just before the break and never looked back.

Port Townsend was aided by three interceptions; one was returned one for a touch-down. The Redhawks also returned a punt for a score.

In the win over Port Townsend earlier this season, Coupeville rushed for 376 yards. Friday, the Wolves mustered 123. Josh Bayne picked up most of those, 61 on 17 carries, for one touch-down.

Bayne ran for 144 yards the first meeting.

Lathom Kelley, who burned the Redhawks for 186 yards in the first game, did

not play this time around be-cause of an injury.

Joel Walstad completed 16 of 32 passes for 157 yards and a touchdown; he also had one carry for a touchdown.

Bayne threw once, a 43-yard completion to Ryan Griggs, who finished with four catches for 92 yards. Bayne caught five passes for 51 yards, and Wiley Hessel-grave grabbed three for 39.

Bayne was the defensive leader with 13 tackles, 10 solo.

The Wolves will need to win their final two league games to stay in the hunt for a playoff spot. The top two teams qualify for the post-season.

After going to Chimacum this Friday, Coupeville will host Klahowya at 5:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 24.

SoccerWolves earn tie with Oak Harbor

Micky LeVine scored in the second half to help the Coupeville High School var-sity soccer team tie the Oak Harbor junior varsity 1-1 at foggy Wildcat Memorial Sta-dium Tuesday, Oct. 7.

The Wolves, playing shorthanded, lost 7-1 to Crosspoint Academy in Bremerton Saturday, Oct. 11.

In the Oak Harbor match, the Wildcats’ Court-ney Coker scored with 9:36 left in the first half. LeVine countered, off an assist from Erin Rosenkranz, to earn the tie.

The Crosspoint match had several storylines.

First, divine intervention. Cowan told Jacki Ginnings before the match he was go-ing to limit her playing time to rest her injured ankle.

Ginnings told Cowan she was fine, telling her coach, “Jesus kissed my ankle.” The inspired Ginnings went on to score her first career goal for the Wolves.

Next, Cowan chose to sit some of his starters much of the game.

Cowan pulled Ginnings after the goal. Like Ginnings, Cowan played starters Erin Rosenkranz and Marissa Et-zell only 20 minutes each, try-ing to avoid injury and giving his substitutes some playing time in the final nonleague match before conference play begins this week.

Five starters (Julia My-ers, LeVine, Christine Fields, Spark and Bree Daigneault) missed the match because of the SAT, injury or a family matter.

Another subplot was a reunion with Crosspoint’s Emma Laurion. Laurion began playing soccer when she lived in Coupeville as a youngster. Laurion finished with a goal and two assists.

Coupeville (3-3-1) now takes on the Olympic League, first hosting Chimacum (1-6) at 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16.

VolleyballCoupeville blanked 3-0 by BC Vikings

Bellevue Christian jumped to large early leads in each game on the way to a 3-0 win over the host Coupe-ville High School volleyball team Tuesday, Oct. 7.

The Vikings won 25-10, 25-17, 25-18.

“They kept us out of our system with tough serves, making it hard to run our offense,” Coupeville coach Breanne Smedley said.

Kacie Kiel had two kills and four aces, Hailey Ham-mer added four kills and Va-len Trujillo collected 17 digs.

Coupeville (0-5) plays Chimacum (1-4) at home at 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 16.

TennisCoupeville clubs Cowboys again

The Coupeville High School tennis team played Chimacum in back-to-back matches, and both were wins for the Wolves.

The latest victory was 7-0 in Coupeville Friday, Oct. 10.

The Cowboys (1-7) brought only eight play-ers and defaulted in third and fourth doubles. Those matches, however, were con-

tested as exhibitions as some Chimacum players played twice to allow all the Wolves to compete.

“Even though the match was seemingly in hand before it even started, I was thor-oughly impressed with our doubles teams,” Coupeville coach Ken Stange said. “Af-ter missing the last couple of matches, Loren (Nelson) was able to team up with Con-nor (McCormick) to grab the win at No. 1 doubles. John (McClarin) and Joseph (We-dekind) also snagged their first win of the year at No. 2 doubles.”

In singles action, Aaron Curtin “used his usual power and spin” to get a win in the first slot, according to Stange.

Sebastian Davis, playing in second singles, “struggled mightily in the first set,” Stange said. “He was able to settle down in the second and third sets, knocking his oppo-nent down with ease.

“All in all, it was a great day,” Stange said.

Coupeville (3-4) wraps up the regular season with another match with the Cow-boys, this time in Chimacum at 4 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 17.

The Olympic League tournament is 8 a.m. Oct. 22 and 23 at North Kitsap.

Coupeville results versus Chimacum:

Singles: 1, Curtin won 6-1, 6-3; 2, Davis won 3-6, 6-2, 6-1; 3, Kyle Bodamer won 6-1, 6-4.

Doubles: 1, Nelson/Mc-Cormick won 7-5, 6-0; 2, McClarin/Wedekind won 6-0, 6-1; 3, William Nelson/Joey Lippo won 8-3; 4, Grey Rische/Jared Helmstadter won 8-3.

Pounding rain didn’t stop teams from having a good time Saturday during the Harvest Fest Relay Races.

The teams collectively raised nearly $29,000 for Gifts From the Heart food bank and put on a good show.

Relay activities included egg tossing, finding radishes in a pile of hay, turnip toss-ing, corn shucking and wheel-barrow running.

The top two teams for col-lecting the most money were

the Coupeville High School’s drama troupe and the team from Rose Hip Farm and Garden.

The drama troupe team got a big boost in fundraising by local anonymous donors who stepped up with match-ing donations.

Teams were also rewarded for people’s choice award and fastest time with a variety of local gift certificates.

The Giant Pumpkin Con-test also brought in not only big gourds, but big winners.

The winner of the big-gest zucchini was Randy Thiesfeld, of Coupeville, who

brought in two zucchini with the same winning weight of 11 pounds, 12 ounces.

Kohl Baker of Freeland won the junior pumpkin di-vision with a big 244-pound pumpkin, which he claimed was not the biggest one in his patch.

The ugliest pumpkin was won by newcomer John Bol-ing, of Coupeville.

The top three pumpkins were from Neal Amtmann, of Coupeville, with 391 pounds, newcomer Mike Radach, of Oak Harbor, with 452 pounds and Lee Roof, of Coupeville, with 1,005 pounds.

Roof’s pumpkin, which also won the prettiest pump-kin award, will be on display for the month of October at Three Sisters Grocery in San de Fuca.

Plans are already under-way for the 20th annual con-test for next year, and anyone wishing to receive free seeds may contact the contest at [email protected]

Free seeds will be sent out early next spring.

Harvest Fest also marked the final Coupeville Farmers Market of the season. It will be back in April 2015.

HARVESTING FUNMegan Hansen photos

The Lady Lions from the Coupeville Lions Club were one of the top teams in fundraising this year. Donations collected for the relay went to Gifts From the Heart.

Rain doesn’t diminish relay races, pumpkin contest

Coupeville mayor Nancy Conard takes the lead in the final leg of the relay races Saturday.

One portion of the relay races required participants to search for radishes in piles of hay. Lee Roof came away with the heaviest contender in the giant pumpkin contest. His gourd, weighing in at 1,005 pounds, will be on display at Three Sisters Market.

State candidates take on education, transportationBy Janis ReidStaff Reporter

Legislative candidates clash on how to fund the state’s education mandate and how to handle local and state transportation issues.

Republican incumbent Dave Hayes, finishing his first term as District 10 Position 2 representa-tive, said that state Supreme Court’s order to fund education is going to affect every part of the state’s budget in the coming years.

“Obviously coming into compli-ance with the McCleary decision is going to overshadow just about every other issue in the legislature this year and finding enough money to satisfy the supreme court will be a challenge,” Hayes said.

As a member of the education policy committee, Hayes said he plans to look at where the state can eliminate unfunded or underfunded mandates for school districts. In ad-dition, he said the state is spending too much money on testing.

“We have a really big need for re-form in that area,” Hayes said.

Democratic challenger Nick Pe-trish proposes that the government aggressively close tax loopholes and incentives as a way to get businesses to help fund education.

Petrish said under this type of legislation, the state would “claw-

back” any tax incentives given to businesses if they break promises to keep jobs in state. Petrish also sup-ports the creation of a state bank, which he said will reduce the cost of financial services and keep interest dollars in house.

While Hayes does not support the legalization of marijuana, he believes that now the tax revenues from the new industry should be split between education and local jurisdictions.

“What we can’t do is dedicate 100 percent to the tax revenues sole-ly to education because it’s the local governments … that are going to be impacted the most about the new policy,” Hayes said.

Petrish, a supporter of legal-ization, suggests splitting the tax money between education and in-frastructure, an area he believes the state has been neglecting.

“We need to rebuild our roads and bridges,” Petrish said. “This is fact.”

Petrish also believes the state should fully fund rural transporta-tion such as Island Transit, which has been wracked with financial problems resulting in layoffs and route cuts.

Petrish said it’s the state’s respon-sibility to make sure these services are available to its constituents but that the funding needs to be admin-

istered with a plan in mind. Hayes said the state’s role in lo-

cal transit agencies should be “very small and very narrow.”

“Shifting the focus back over to the state and saying the state needs to come in and support this is not a fair statement,” Hayes said. “Until Island Transit starts charging fares and operating in a more responsible manner, it will be a huge challenge to get additional state dollars.”

Hayes is a supporter of Initiative 591, which would limit the state’s ability to restrict gun ownership to existing federal laws. The other gun-related legislation, Initiative 594, requiring background checks on all firearm sales and transfers is “mis-guided,” Hayes said.

“I concentrate on whether the policy is going to address the prob-lem,” Hayes said. “The people who it affects follow the rules already… criminals don’t follow the rules.”

Petrish, a self-proclaimed “shooter” and gun owner, said that I-594 is a “reasonable law.”

“I support I-594 because it’s a gimme,” Petrish said, adding that if it doesn’t pass, gun control advo-cates are “gonna come at us with more restrictive, more extreme ini-tiatives.”

“By bending a little bit now, we don’t have to break later,” Petrish said.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by 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.

lieve a positive outlook helps you get through.”

Eccles didn’t first go to the doctor because she sus-pected she had breast cancer. She hadn’t been feeling well. When she mentioned her sister's recent diagnosis, the doctor started testing.

“Life moved so quickly from that moment,” Eccles said. “Once treatments were over I quickly realized that life would never be complete-ly the same.

“Realizing your oncolo-gist is someone you see on a regular basis, mammograms, blood tests, all became a part of life, and an important part.”

Eccles’ life became divid-ed into milestones, chunks of time cancer free.

“When you reach five years cancer free, that is the

big one,” she said. “I remem-ber the day clearly when I thought I was seeing my on-cologist for the last time.”

That appointment didn’t go as expected and tests revealed the cancer had re-turned.

“This time it was deep inside my chest wall, close to my heart,” she said. “I was numb.

“David (my husband) had not come with me that day. Why would he? I told him it was my final visit and we were going to have a dinner party that evening.”

Eccles’ second bout with cancer was in the same breast. Doctors recommend-ed a mastectomy this time be-cause of the cancer's position.

“My determination to win over this once again never wavered,” she said. “I was going to be a survivor yet again.”

And survive she did. Ec-cles has been cancer free for 20 years. Three weeks after her mastectomy, she returned to work and she has contin-ued to work.

“I think when it first hap-pened it gave me an inner strength I didn’t know I had,” she said. “I think it made me stronger, more independent.

“You can't get through something like that without your family, but you have to fight for yourself.”

While Eccles has been cancer free for 20 years, it still weighs on her mind.

Her sister, who went through cancer with her the first time, fought illness for years as her cancer spread to other parts of her body. She died years later. Another sis-ter died from leukemia.

“You're always concerned about your health and your body,” Eccles said. “There

is always that fear when you don't feel great and you have aches and pains.”

A few years ago Eccles had another scare, this time with a non-malignant tumor in her thyroid. It is closely monitored by doctors.

Because of her family history, Eccles also opted to recently have a BRCA Test, which is genetic testing that looks at a woman's hereditary risk of getting breast cancer. Hers came out positive.

“I’d rather know than not know,” Eccles said. “So much is changing; they've come so far.

“Its talked about now. People talk about it. It's im-portant for women to focus on their health. I felt I was a healthy person.

“It was a day that changed my life, but you just got to smile each day and recognize, life is good.”

challenging and meaning-ful work,” Day wrote. “I believe I could do justice to the reputation that has been established by the pre-vious holder of the position and continue to help the board of commissioners achieve the goals, extend the mission and uphold the values of the Port of Coupeville for voters and visitors whom it serves.”

Current Island County Assessor’s Office employee Douglas “Bernie” Up-church also applied for the position, saying he has ex-tensive ties to Coupeville.

He previously coached Coupeville Middle School basketball and track, owned a small inspection business in town and lived here in the early 1990s.

He currently works as a

staff appraiser. “It has been a very in-

teresting position and I do enjoy the work, but I think my leadership and manage-ment experience may be better fit with the port,” he wrote.

The last applicant is Oak Harbor resident John Koutouzos, who says he brings 15-plus years of business management ex-perience including seven years in marine services.

He said he felt he would be an asset and excellent fit for the position.

Koutouzos owned Skagit Towing and Rocky Point Towing in Mount Vernon and Klamath Falls, Ore., both of which he sold this summer.

He worked in marine specialties as an opera-tions manager from 1998 to 2006.
