Tuesday by Central Mason Fire &
EMS personnel near in the intersec-

in Shelton, the Mason County Sher-

fire authorities, had grown wary of
the sheer multitude of recent fire ac-

On Tuesday afternoon, Ryan

Homeless woman wants to

Kelly Burdette didn’t always live in
her truck.
Burdette, who has resided in Mason
County for 30 years, said she lived in
rentals for 25 years and once owned
Bear Creek Espresso in Belfair. Her
most recent job, at Little Skookum
Shellfish, ended because it was too
physically taxing on her body, she said.
Three years ago, Burdette was evict-
ed from her rental house.
“I just fell homeless,” she said.
Although she is homeless, Burdette
wants to help the other homeless peo-
ple in Mason County by organizing a
community gathering from 10 a.m. to
6 p.m. Saturday at Kneeland Park in
downtown Shelton. The event will in-
clude entertainment, refreshments,
games and prizes.
Donations of cash and items such
and sleeping bags, tents and bathroom
supplies will be accepted.
“I want to (collect) some money,
plenty of supplies stored up,” she said.
“We have winter and cold months com-
ing soon. There’s only so many shelter
beds. We have to be thinking about
these people right now.”
Anyone who wants to donate food,
prizes, gift cards and other items for
the event can call Burdette at 360-
463-0163 or email gatheringmasonco@
gmail.com.
Burdette, 52, said she hasn’t re-
ceived much support so far in her ef-
forts to organize the event. She has a
permit from the city to stage it.
“We’ll show up and see who comes,”
she said.

or years, Mason County has ranked
among the least healthy counties in
Washington.
But now, thanks to community leaders
and a little bit of governmental assistance,
we’re doing something about it.
The Shelton City Council last week put
what will likely be the finishing touches
on a grassroots proposal to construct a
brand-new YMCA in Shelton by 2023. The
city will lease 10.5 acres of land near the
intersection of Shelton Springs Road and
Wallace Kneeland Boulevard for the new
facility, which could break ground by July
2020.

In this year’s report, Mason County
ranked 28th of 39 counties in health out-

healthy people feel, according to the study.
Health factors weigh measurements such as
tobacco use, access to quality health care and
air quality.
But it’s not just adults who are struggling
with their health. According to the Washing-
ton State Healthy Youth Survey, students

is where the teams’ club-

the service tunnel and you can
think of it as being similar
to the backstage of a theater
where all the unglamorous

The service tunnel courses
around the park, level with
and behind the playing field.
It’s an ant hill down there be-
fore the game – among their
many chores, hundreds of
workers unpack the food and
drink that will be consumed
by tens of thousands of fans.
The concrete walls of the ser-
vice tunnel are adorned with
huge photos of past Mariners.
The service tunnel is where
you’ll find the umpires tunnel,

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Kudos on
your blank
opinion page
Editor, the Journal
I commend you on your
choosing a blank editorial
page in the July 6 paper to
pay tribute to those reporters
killed at the Capital Gazette
in Annapolis. What better way
to convey the helplessness
that you and many of us feel
about this seemingly endless
slaughter except in the stark
listing of names?
And I thank Gordon Weeks
for his column about his and
his peers’ chilling accounts
of threats to their lives. I’m
especially concerned for the
security of your office space. It
seems this is something you
should try to resolve.
There is far more to say, I
suppose, but Gordon said it
far better than I can.

Editor, the Journal
Maria Cantwell has been
a senator for 18 years yet
has not authored one signifi-
cant law. She wants another
term which would complete a
quarter-century of do-nothing
incompetence. Our founding
fathers envisioned part-time
citizen legislators, not full-
time do-nothing legislators.
Cantwell voted against the
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act; the
law which lowers your taxes
and improves your 401(k)
retirement. Job opportuni-
ties abound. Black, Hispanic
and women unemployment
is the lowest in history. Busi-
ness startups are increasing
in minority communities. A 4
percent business growth, the
best in 50 years, equals job op-
portunities for all.
Cantwell voted against
HR2579 immigration reform,
which included a citizen-
ship path for Dreamers and
border security. She claims
to support Veteran’s Admin-
istration changes, but didn’t
support President Trump as
he increased VA funding and
fired incompetent VA em-
ployees who failed to provide
approved medical services or
caused excessive wait times.
In 2012, Cantwell received
over $3,700,000 (54 percent of
her campaign donations) from
out of state, with lobbyists
leading the pack, according
to the Federal Elections Com-
mission.
In 2016, Cantwell was a
Washington state super del-
egate who supported Hillary
Clinton against Bernie Sand-
ers, even though Bernie had
Democrat rank and file sup-
port.
Cantwell is a lemming who
does whatever Chuck Schum-
er tells her to do. Cantwell
does not represent us; she rep-
resents Seattle values. Let’s
deny her the Mason County

Susan was the Washington

experience
will be key
Editor, the Journal
I am writing in support
of Patti McLean for Mason
County assessor.
Patti has 27 years of ap-
praisal experience from Ma-

she has a year as an appraiser
for Grays Harbor. I believe it
is strong benefit to have expe-
rience from other jurisdictions
when it comes to tax assess-
ments.
Integrity and trust are key
components for our assessor’s
office. People need to trust
and understand the appraisal
and valuation process used for
tax assessments. As we would
like to say, “if you can’t trust
government, who can you
trust?”
I am putting my trust with
Patti McLean for assessor.

Some
questions
for Holland
Editor, the Journal
Mr. Burke, you make some
valid points; then there are
some that made the hair on
the back of my neck stand up.
I, being a civil service commis-
sioner for six years, take great
offense to some of your state-
ments. First would be the hir-
ing practice you refer to. Let
me remind the readers and
you that there are set guide-
lines for employment of which
the RCW 41.14.010 clearly
states. This is when I will
thank you for being so totally
unaware of how employment
is achieved. Readers, please
go find your RCW and educate
yourselves on this topic. Then
educate yourselves on how
you want your state-mandated
services taken care of rather
than believing the half-truths
and short stories you hear
about over-spending. It might
be time to ask a few questions
when you ask that question
make sure it is with the right
person, in the company of oth-
ers, so when the one telling
Thursday, July 19, 2018 - Shelton-Mason County Journal - Page A-5
the half-truth gets caught a
new half-truth won’t be told. I
venture to say that most of the
negative feedback is coming
from people that really don’t
know the facts at all.
It is so mind blowing how
many people are blindly fol-
lowing a man they don’t know.
I have read many comments
on how Mr. Holland is block-
ing people on Facebook, how
he has not shown up to candi-
date forums for one reason or
another, and then there are
these people that stand tall
and talk assuming that he has
some secret power. I would
like to ask Mr. Holland just a
few questions. Who are you,
Mr. Holland? What was your
rank in the military? How
many years did you spend
in the military police? What
training, leadership and ex-
perience do you have in law
enforcement? And lastly, cer-

Yes, Mr. Burke, I did take
my volunteer job very serious
as a civil service commission-

OTJ in law enforcement only

that should be the solution

Vote for Kathy
Chaussee for
commissioner
Editor, the Journal
There are four candidates
running for Mason County
Commissioner District 3.
Kathy Chaussee has provided
18 years of dedicated service
to Mason County as an ac-
countant and preparing her
departmental budget. We
need a commissioner with
“hands-on” budget and county
government experience –
someone who knows how
county government works,
who knows the players, who
has knowledge of all county
departments, and someone
who knows the history of Ma-
son County and the choices
that were previously made
that put our county in the
financial status it currently
faces. We also need a com-
missioner who has a sincere
passionate interest in our
community – who truly cares
about the importance of public
health and safety and the fu-
ture of Mason County. Kathy
is that person.
Kathy is not a Democrat
or Republican, she is an Inde-
pendent, meaning her ideas
and beliefs are her own and
not influenced by a politi-
cal party. Now is the time to
bring in a commissioner with
experience, knowledge and
new beliefs. This is the perfect
opportunity for the residents
of Mason County to finally
make a change in the Mason
County Commission by voting
in the right person for the job
– Kathy Chaussee.

Bowling is a
true Democrat
Editor, the Journal
Once again, Tim Sheldon is
running for Washington state
Senate as a “Democrat.” His
voting record says otherwise.
Examples of Sheldon’s
votes on health-related issues,
including paid family and
medical leave:
The Washington Family
and Medical Leave Insurance
Act originally passed in 2007
established a paid family
leave insurance program, but
was never implemented and
was indefinitely postponed by
subsequent legislation.
In January 2013, SB 5159,
co-sponsored by Sheldon, at-
tempted to repeal the family
and medical leave insurance
act. It ended up in the Senate
X Files.
In June 2017, SB 5975 was
introduced, establishing a paid
family leave insurance pro-
gram. Although this bill over-
whelmingly passed in both the
Senate and the House, Shel-
don voted against it.
Sheldon also voted against
the following health related
bills that were passed in the
Senate:
March 2011, SB 5039 ­—
Tobacco cessation treatment
April 2010, HB 2493 – Cig-
arette tax increase
March 2008, Sub HB 2572
— Health insurance for small
businesses
January 2008, SB 5261 —
Health insurance rate over-
sight
This indicates a pattern of
voting that benefits business
and special interests, not peo-
ple. In fact, if you look at Shel-
don’s fundraising disclosures,
you will not only see business
and special interest donations,
but in 2014, the Republican
Party donated over $100,000
to his campaign.
Please be an informed voter
this year. Review Tim Shel-
don’s voting record and finan-
cial disclosures. If you are a
Democrat, I believe you will
want to vote for a true Demo-
crat, Irene Bowling.

Steele a fair,
experienced
choice
Editor, the Journal
My husband and I are vot-
ing for George Steele for dis-
trict court judge. He has the
experience, fairness and integ-
rity it takes to be a judge. If
you are seeking a judge that
dispenses justice as intended
under the law, then that
would be George Steele.
These are the reasons I rec-
ommend we all vote for him.
This election is truly about
electing someone who adheres
to the letter of the law and
George Steele is that person.

Trask’s myriad
of experience
will be key
Editor, the Journal
Sharon Trask is right for
Mason County. Out of all of
the folks running for county
commissioner this year, one
stands out for us and her
name is Sharon Trask. We’ve
known Sharon for years and
when I heard that she was
dedicating herself to run for
county commissioner, I imme-
diately knew that she was a
perfect fit.
Sharon has a myriad of
experience, from being a busi-
ness owner to our legislature
as legislative assistant for J.T.
Wilcox. When there is a need
in our community, she and
her husband, Ted, are always
there willing to help those
less fortunate. I had a friend
ask me why Sharon would be
a good person to vote for in
the upcoming primary. My
answer is that while Sharon is
soft spoken, she is incredibly
smart and empathetic. I’ve
personally seen her use agree-
ments between folks with
divergent viewpoints as a way
to bridge any disagreements.
I think her kind demeanor
disarms people and helps to
create an environment of col-
laboration. It seems to me
that this quality will serve
Mason County well, espe-
cially in situations of conflicts
between department heads.
These qualities are absolutely
what Mason County needs.
Thank you for your consid-
eration and hopefully you’ll
consider casting your vote for
Sharon Trask. I know I will
be.

Sharon Trask
for county
commissioner
Editor, the Journal
We will make this short
and to the point. You have
been hearing and reading
about the candidates for
weeks now. So, Sharon Trask
is by far the best and only
person for Mason County com-
missioner. She is running for
the betterment of our precious
county.

Knowledge
lacking for
candidates
Editor, the Journal
I am distressed to see the
level of knowledge candidates
running for office have about
the position in which they
wish to serve.
Mr. Holland, running
for sheriff, raised the ques-
tion as to the need for good
watercraft in the sheriff’s
office. Yet, when asked, he
was unable to tell me how
many miles of waterline ex-
ist within the current county
boundaries. It’s the county
that steps up to the distress
calls of thousands of boat-
ers in our public waters. The
Hood Canal is the largest
fjord in the United States,
a great deal of it is within
Mason County, and the Coast
Guard has no personnel or
equipment assigned here.
Mason County bought one
used boat from the USCG in
2016, per iFiberOne News,
June 3, 2016, to patrol 200
miles of shoreline.
Mr. Bonin, running for
district court judge, has pro-
posed a salary reduction plan.
Per his web page “… Don’t we
need a full-time judge? The
answer is yes. I intend to try
to be salaried as a three-quar-
ter time judge while actually
working full-time and ask-
ing the county to use my 25
percent reduction and funds
spent to hire pro tem judges
to create another three-quar-
ter time judge position … ”
This is a lovely thought and
will appeal to county voters,
but has no chance of hap-
pening until state laws are
changed.
RCW 3.34.010 enacts the
number of district judges for
each county. Mason County
currently has one authorized
district court judge. This
number may be increased
only as provided in RCW
3.34.020, which states that
“… Any change in the number
of full and part-time district
judges after January 1, 1992,
shall be determined by the
legislature after receiving a
recommendation from the
supreme court … ” About
the salary — RCW 3.58.010
states the salaries of full-time
district court judges shall be
established by the Washing-
ton citizen’s commission on
salaries for elected officials.
It’s also published in the
RCWs.
The work of changing the
laws we don’t like is too hard,
so nobody does it. But not to
affect lawful change has a
consequence: anarchy. I am
not a deputy sheriff or lawyer,
just a citizen, but I do my
homework.

Elect Bowling
to work for us
Editor, the Journal
After decades of false
choice for a Democratic state
senator, this year we have the
opportunity to vote for a real
Democrat, Irene Bowling!
While the incumbent takes
contributions from big busi-
ness, out-of-state concerns
and Republicans (while
claiming to be a Democrat),
Irene’s support comes from
actual Democrats in her dis-
trict.
While the incumbent takes
weeks to respond to my con-
cerns and requests for help in
a life and death matter, and
then responds with disdain
and bullying, Irene makes
time to listen to me and re-
sponds with intelligence and
compassion.
Irene supports real Demo-
cratic values like afford-
able health care, free public
education, and economic and
social justice. Look at Tim
Sheldon’s voting record and
you will see that his work is
so Republican it is no wonder
the American conservatives
organization gives him a
78 percent approval rat-
ing, more than double other
Democrats!
I urge my fellow Democrats
to vote for Irene Bowling for
State Senator for the 35th
Legislative District and get a
real Democrat working for us.
When we vote, we win!

Times: Media scrum over Japanese superstar’s comments
continued from page A-4
Most fans can’t enter the park more
than two hours before first pitch, so
I stood there on that 75-degree day
amid the thousands of empty seats. It
was so peaceful I could hear the pop of
a ball hitting a mitt in the outfield. It
felt like a park.
I took a moment to run the words of
the author Kurt Vonnegut through my
head: “If this isn’t nice, I don’t know
what nice is.”
I wandered along the first base line
toward right field where the Mariners’
pitchers were playing catch, getting
their million-dollar arms loose. There
was ace closer Edwin Diaz. There
was set-up man Alex Colome. Erasmo
Ramirez was getting the dust out of
his arm after spending a few months
on the disabled list.
I watched. Colome has an easy de-
livery that makes the speed of the ball
coming out of his hand seem contrary
to the laws of physics. Ramirez was
throwing to a fellow with a catcher’s
mitt and the thud of that ball hitting
that mitt produced an echo. The pitch-
ers spoke quietly to each other.
The most impressive of the pitch-
ers was the youngster Diaz, whose
game pitches top out at 100 mph.
After warming up from about 60 feet,
Diaz walked back to about 120 feet
and started throwing, but this time,
instead of throwing from a set posi-
tion, he was taking two steps into his
throw, building more momentum be-
hind his pitch.
Every time Diaz’ ball hit his part-
ner’s mitt it sounded like the business
end of a wet towel being snapped – if
that towel was in the hands of a pro-
fessional towel-snapper.
I wandered back to the infield where
a dozen Japanese media people were
camped in front of the Angels dugout –
their cameras were all trained on the
clubhouse opening of the dugout, wait-
ing for Shohei Ohtani, this year’s Ma-
jor League Baseball sensation. Ohtani
hits and pitches – at least he did pitch
until June when he injured the elbow
on his throwing arm – and he and
Babe Ruth are often proper nouns
in the same sentence. It was unclear
whether Ohtani would come off the
disabled list and play that day.
I moved on. I leaned against the
padded wall along the third base side
and talked with some members of the
Safeco grounds crew – they were tak-
ing a break in the first row of seats. I
talked to Dylan, who looked to be in
his late 20s, and he said he had pre-
viously worked on the grounds crew
for the New York Mets for a couple of
years.
“People in this job move around a
lot,” Dylan said.
Dylan said many people on grounds
crews get their starts at golf courses,
but some get a bachelor’s degrees in
turf and grass science.
Dylan yanked his thumb toward the
fellow sitting five seats down: “That
guy’s got a turf and science degree and
he’s got the prestige job – taking care
of the mound.”
“Nah,” the fellow responded. “All I

Candidates: Locals weigh in on what sets themselves apart
continued from page A-1
Below are each of the candi-
dates’ responses. The answers,
printed in their entirety, are
listed in the same order the can-
didates appear on the Primary
Election ballot.
SHARON TRASK
1. What inspired you to run for
office and did you know you
wanted to run immediately once
Commissioner (Terri) Drexler
announced
she would not
be seeking re-
election? Did
you need to
be convinced
to run?
C o m -
missioner
Drexler’s
announce- Trask
ment didn’t
determine the timing of my can-
didacy – my readiness and abil-
ity to serve did. I thought about
running for commissioner, but
didn’t feel the time was right un-
til Commissioner Drexler made
the decision not to run. My fam-
ily, friends and others in Mason
County encouraged me to run
because they know I have the
experience and passion to be an
effective commissioner.
2. What sets you apart from the
other candidates running for the
county commission?
I have the most current expe-
rience working with all levels of
government and other agencies.
I currently work for the Wash-
ington State House of Represen-
tatives for the minority leader,
Rep. J.T. Wilcox, as his legisla-
tive assistant. I truly enjoy the
opportunities I have to help con-
stituents navigate through the
bureaucracy. I’ve have helped
families get their children back,
business owners with numerous
issues with federal, state and lo-
cal governments and a variety of
other issues. I know what a bil-
lion-dollar budget looks like and
understand what difficult deci-
sions must be made to make the
government run efficiently.
I am also a current business
owner and have owned other
successful businesses, giving me
the knowledge of what our small
business owners face on a daily
basis.
Running a county budget
needs someone who understands
all departments and the needs
the elected officials and depart-
ment heads face.
3. What’s the most pressing issue
facing the county, and are you
more qualified to face that issue
than your opponents? If so, how?
We have a revenue issue. To
make the county run efficiently,
we need to create a robust econ-
omy and entice business to stay
or move to Mason County. We
already have what we need to
make our county a place for busi-
ness. The restrictions, permit-
ting process and zoning issues
are discouraging businesses from
staying or relocating to Mason
County. I have the knowledge
and the ability to work with busi-
nesses to show them what Ma-
son County can offer them. We
need to change the reputation of
Mason County from a bedroom
community to a business-friend-
ly county.
4. County commissioner is a par-
tisan position. Can you promise
voters that if elected your po-
litical affiliation will take a back
seat to the needs of the county?
Working with the Legislature
has given me the opportunity to
truly work across the aisle. The
constituents that contact the 2nd
District office are from every po-
litical spectrum. Help is given to
the constituent regardless of how
they voted. It is my duty and my
pleasure to help when help is
requested. A representative or
commissioner works for the peo-
ple, not just those that put them
into office.
5. What is your greatest criticism
of the current commission and
how do you propose to remedy
that once in office?
I’m not running against the
commission, I’m running be-
cause I have the experience to
help solve the issues facing the
county. I have heard from many
of the Mason County residents
the biggest issue is the division
between the commission and
the departments. I believe I can
be the collaborator to bridge the
gap that exists between the com-
mission and the other electeds. I
work with some very strong type
A personalities and am able to
help them work together to ac-
complish what the citizens need.
We need to allow the department
heads and the other elected of-
ficials to ability to run their de-
partments with the budgeted
money. I will meet with the de-
partment heads and other elect-
ed on a regular basis to make
sure I understand their needs
and how I can best help them
achieve their goals and budget.
6. How will Mason County be im-
proved after four years with you
as a county commissioner?
Mason County will have a
fresh and robust economy. More
Mason County residents will be
able to live where they work. By
bringing in new business and
sustaining the current busi-
nesses, Mason County will have
a consistent and larger revenue
stream. Tourism will increase by
showcasing our already magnifi-
cent forests, shorelines and other
waterways.
MARY JO CADY
1. What inspired you to run for
office and did you know you
wanted to run immediately
once Commissioner Drexler an-
nounced she would not be seek-
ing re-election? Did you need to
be convinced to run?
Over the past several years,
people have been encouraging
me to run again. I am a for-
mer Mason
County Com-
missioner
and served
for 6 ½ years
before my
husband’s
d e c l i n -
ing health
changed my
priorities. Cady
Once Com-
missioner Drexler announced
her retirement, I started consid-
ering running for the position
that was one of the most fulfill-
ing jobs I’d had. I didn’t need to
be convinced to run. It just took
me longer to weigh the pros and
cons of getting back into a job
that is intense and demanding.
Once I knew that I could commit
to serving the citizens of Mason
County again, I filed with the
Public Disclosure Commission.
2. What sets you apart from the
other candidates running for the
county commission?
I have held the position before
for 6 ½ years. I know what it en-
tails, who the stakeholders are
at the local, state, and federal
levels, and where Mason County
is and needs to be to bring us for-
ward as a thriving community
economically surrounded by the
most beautiful environment, and
natural resources. While a com-
missioner I was appointed to
leadership positions within the
county with transit, the Squaxin
Community Contributions Com-
mittee, the Association of Coun-
ties, and the Washington Coun-
ties Risk Pool. At the state level,
I was appointed by the governor
to represent all of the counties
on the Emergency Management
Council based at Joint Base
Lewis-McChord. I was also ap-
pointed to represent all the coun-
ties on the Transportation Com-
mission Stakeholders Advisory
Board. Aside from government
positions, as a 25-year member
of Lions International, I have
been a leader in the Shelton Li-
ons and was a Trustee with the
Northwest Lions Foundation in
Seattle. I have the knowledge,
experience, and the proven lead-
ership to fill the position of Ma-
son County commissioner again.
3. What’s the most pressing issue
facing the county, and are you
more qualified to face that issue
than your opponents? If so, how?
The most pressing issue cur-
rently is the county budget.
There have been serious cut-
backs in recent years and the
current commissioners have
formed a committee to help
them work through some of the
issues. I have been attending
the meetings of this committee.
I have also been involved for 6
½ years in preparing and liv-
ing with this budget. I am the
only candidate who has worked
with this (or any other) budget
that is well over $30 million.
One of the other candidates has
worked with a portion of the
budget for several years for one
department under the commis-
sioners but I’m the only one to
work with the entire budget,
balancing the wants and needs
of all the other departments and
elected officials.
4. County commissioner is a
partisan position. Can you
promise voters that if elected
your political affiliation will
take a back seat to the needs of
the county?
I have always felt that parti-
san politics has no business at
the local government level. My
partisanship is more a reflection
of my basic philosophies in life.
Those govern how I react to is-
sues, not the party. I absolutely
promise that my political affilia-
tion will take a back seat to the
needs of the county and its citi-
zens!
5. What is your greatest criticism
of the current commission and
how do you propose to remedy
that once in office?
I don’t have any great criti-
cisms of the current commission.
The county, as far as county gov-
ernment is concerned, is running
as well as it can within the con-
straints of its budget. In order to
get a better handle on the bud-
get, I feel we need to go back to
line-item budgeting. It’s more
time consuming but it gives a
much more precise look at where
money is being spent. Currently,
elected officials are given their
share of the budget in two items,
one that covers employees and
their benefits; and, another that
is for operations. The second one
is a bottom line budget and can
be spent down to the final dol-
lar without much accountability
for where the funds went. In my
proposal, every dollar would be
allocated and tracked to specific
expenses. After the first year, the
commissioners and other elected
officials can look back and see if
money was spent on more than
mandated items and if they were
necessary expenditures.
6. How will Mason County be im-
proved after four years with you
as a county commissioner?
In the time I was in office, I
worked with six other commis-
sioners. In my experience, it
takes two years for a newly elect-
ed commissioner to learn his or
her job. The citizens can elect one
of my opponents and have to pay
for two years of training or they
can elect me and have an expe-
rienced, knowledgeable, proven
leader who is ready to step back
into the job. I have been a mem-
ber of the Mason County EDC
and both of the chambers of com-
merce for many years. My family
has been here since the 1800s. I
have a vested interest because
of our ownership in forest lands,
shorelines, and commercial prop-
erty in seeing Mason County be
economically viable while our
critical areas and natural re-
sources are protected. I have rep-
resented the county and the EDC
in testifying before the Legisla-
ture and working with our Con-
gressional delegation on behalf
of all of our citizens for the bet-
terment of our county, and I will
continue to do so! Currently, I
serve on the TIP-CAP (Transpor-
tation Improvement Program –
Citizens Advisory Panel), which
is advisory to the commissioners
on issues dealing with our county
roads. I have experience with all
the issues that come before the
commission and in the next four
years, I expect to see projects
that have been on hold with our
public works department move
forward. I expect to see amaz-
ing growth in the north end be-
cause of the work of the EDC and
chambers. As a member of the
commission, I can help expedite
the progress in these areas. With
line-item budgeting, I feel we will
be able to save money and pos-
sibly be able to restore services
to the Belfair UGA. We are on
the brink of great things happen-
ing here and with me being back
on the commission, I feel we can
move into a bright future. The
citizens of Mason County are the
boss and they need to elect the
best! I’m knowledgeable, experi-
enced, a proven leader and the
best choice for their vote!
KATHY CHAUSSEE
1. What inspired you to run for
office and did you know you
wanted to run immediately
once Commissioner Drexler an-
nounced she would not be seek-
ing re-election? Did you need to
be convinced to run?
I have enjoyed a professional
relationship with nearly all of
Mason County’s commission-
ers over the past 18 years, and
because of that I have learned a
great deal about the kind of re-
solve it takes to do their job. As
an accountant, I have been es-
pecially interested in the coun-
ty’s budget and the decision-
making process it takes to find
balance and equity in the most
difficult of times. There have al-
ways been opportunities to put
my hat in the ring, but I chose
to remain in my position with
the county
as way of
continuing
to support
the chal-
lenges our
department
faced and to
continue my
education
toward one Chaussee
day making
an even greater contribution.
When Commissioner Drexler
decided to not seek re-election,
it felt like the right time for me
to step up and offer my com-
mitment to the seat and to the
citizens – no convincing was
needed.
2. What sets you apart from the
other candidates running for the
county commission?
My extensive work history
with the county has to be most
redeeming aspect of what sets
me apart. For nearly 20 years
I have served each department
director and elected official with-
out question or hesitation to-
ward our common goals. I have
built relationships and created
a strong network between and
among each county department,
and with each elected official
that has held strong through two
economic recessions. I can attest
the strength of character for each
and every one of my colleagues
throughout the years, and I am
confident they can attest to mine.
When elected, I will continue in
tandem with my fellow commis-
sioners understanding what I
already know of our county, and
how much more I am inspired to
learn. What sets me apart is an
insight that can only be obtained
from working within the fabric
of our government and under-
standing the complexity of detail
in departmental relationships,
and how they can impact us, as
citizens.
3. What’s the most pressing is-
sue facing the county, and are
you more qualified to face that
issue than your opponents? If
so, how?
Without a doubt, having a
sustainable budget is our coun-
ty’s most pressing issue. As a
very seasoned accountant, and
serving the County as such for
18 years, I know how to read
the financials, dig down into the
short and long-term costs, and
weigh the benefits of our spend-
ing activity. Working alongside
Commissioners Shutty and
Neatherlin, two individuals no
longer strangers to our finan-
cials situation, I know we will be
tremendously successful and I
look forward to this opportunity.
4. County commissioner is a par-
tisan position. Can you promise
voters that if elected your po-
litical affiliation will take a back
seat to the needs of the county?
I am running for Mason
County commissioner as an
Independent to serve the citi-
zens with sound, careful and
well-thought-out decisions free
from political affiliation. What
I want for our county is mean-
ingful public involvement and
an open and honest discussion
around the budgeting of funds.
A safe and healthy environment
is my priority, whether that be

on our streets, in our stores,
schools and neighborhoods, or in
our clean air and water. I want
to make a difference by working
beside each of you toward a com-
mon vision that maintains the
excellence we’ve already created
in our community and continue
working together with determi-
nation to improve our future.
5. What is your greatest criti-
cism of the current commission
and how do you propose to rem-
edy that once in office?
I believe criticism is subjec-
tive, and varies depending on
the view. It is expected that the
job of any elected official will be
criticized at one point or another,
and I would assume nothing less
should I be elected. Any opinions
that I hold of our current board
are in the sole spectrum of the
job’s intrinsic difficulties; I can
appreciate their challenges and
am eager to offer my experience
and drive to continue their hard
work. Each prior administration
has left behind positive changes
and a strong legacy to live up to,
and Commissioner Drexler is no
exception to that rule. She has
been dedicated and selfless, and I
am confident in my proven record
to be equal to that challenge.
6. How will Mason County be
improved after four years with
you as a county commissioner?
By the end of my first four-
year term, we will have a sus-
tainable budget and a five-year
strategic plan with goals toward
improved long-term public and
environmental health and safety.
The county’s daily operations will
be more efficient, and retaining
qualified staff will be paramount.
Continuity and minimal turn-
over creates an established work-
face that’s builds trust with our
citizens. We will have realized
success with a new jail and men-
tal health facility, and created an
interjurisdictional city and coun-
ty housing plan that encourages
affordable housing through inno-
vation including infill incentives,
varied lot sizes, mixed use, multi-
family units and density bonuses.
Mason County will become more
economically viable by providing
flexibility in the interpretation
and application of zoning require-
ments to encourage adaptive re-
use and compatible commercial/
industrial development. We will
have ensured that the permitting
process is predictable, efficient
and timely, and where possible
provide relevant materials on-
line for easy access. We will have
educated ourselves, as staff and
elected, to better help new resi-
dents and businesses understand
our heritage and the importance
of natural resource industries as
amiable neighbors to future de-
velopment.
KEVIN SCHMELZLEN
1. What inspired you to run
for office and did you know you
wanted to run immediately
once Commissioner Drexler an-
nounced she would not be seek-
ing re-election? Did you need to
be convinced to run?
I was disappointed when it
was announced Commissioner
Drexler had decided to retire.
Although I will bring a different
set of priorities and a new focus
to the com-
mission, I that is why I decided to run for
have always
seen Com-
missioner
Drexler as
receptive to
community
concerns and
as someone
who treats Schmelzlen
her constitu-
ents with kindness and respect,
which I intend to emulate as
Mason County Commissioner.
I am running for Mason
County commissioner because
I am invested in the future of
Mason County and I believe we
need leaders who have shown a
proven ability to move Mason
County forward in a positive di-
rection, as I have.
I led a grassroots movement
in 2016 and 2017 called Shelton
To The Top, which worked with
over 300 community members,
over half of which were under the
age of 25, to remove over 250,000
pounds of trash from condemned
properties, illegal dump sites
and abandoned homeless camps
throughout the greater Shelton
area. During this time, I had
the opportunity to work with the
county commissioners, Mason
County Sheriff’s Office, City of
Shelton, service and community
groups, and many other partners
invested in the success of Ma-
son County. Our common values
were and are to give our commu-
nity hope that we can make Ma-
son County a place where more
people are proud to live, visit,
work, and raise a family.
While leading Shelton To The
Top, we cleaned up at least a
couple dozen abandoned home-
less camps. We saw signs of
drug abuse at many of these, but
there were also too many camps
with no signs of drug use, but
Shelton High School sweatshirts
with a last name on the back,
baby toys, diapers, medicine and
other signs of another struggling
working-class family in Mason
County whose income could not
pay enough of the bills. We have
too many families who have al-
ready lost the battle against
homelessness, and many more
who are only a lost paycheck or
two away from the same fate.
Mason County needs leaders
who are focused on balancing
our county’s continued growth
with the needs of the people
who already live here, who un-
derstand why people visit and
move to Mason County to begin
with, and who understand what
it takes to build the foundation
for a living-wage economy in Ma-
son County. I am that leader and
Mason County commissioner.
2. What sets you apart from the
other candidates running for
the county commission?
My track record of commit-
ment to the Mason County
community and success in mo-
bilizing the community to take
significant, positive action for a
greater Mason County sets me
apart from the other candidates
in this race. Through hard work
and sacrifice, I built a grassroots
movement which worked with
over 300 community members
to remove over 250,000 pounds
of trash from neighborhoods and
natural areas, was featured on
KIRO news for our work in trans-
forming a Shelton neighborhood,
and hopefully helped some of the
hundreds of children I worked
and spoke with realize that we
can build a better future for them-
selves and their community. I did
this while working full-time as
the community engagement co-
ordinator at Mason Conservation
District and serving as an active
board member at United Way of
Mason County, both of which also
gave me opportunities to work
and speak with residents across
Mason County. I was honored to
be recognized by local business
owners in the greater Shelton
area as one of three nominees for
the Citizen of the Year award at
the 2017 Shelton-Mason County
Chamber of Commerce Awards
Gala. Every politician will talk
a big talk, but I have walked the
walk and lived a life dedicated to
the betterment of Mason County.
Because I have been involved
in so many aspects of Mason
County, I have an unparalleled
(among the candidates) under-
standing of the resources we have
available in Mason County. I have
established working relationships
with many of the organizations,
groups, and people who have been
making great things happen here
and I have a strategic plan for
working with those resources to
build a greater future here.
3. What’s the most pressing issue
facing the county, and are you
more qualified to face that issue
than your opponents? If so, how?
We need to make Mason Coun-
ty a place where more people are
proud and excited to live, visit,
work, and raise a family. Until
we make inroads there, we will
continue to bleed tax revenue and
customer dollars to Thurston and
Kitsap counties and continue to
serve as a drive-through county
to Kitsap and Jefferson instead
of being the destination Mason
County deserves to be.
I have proven and look for-
ward to continuing to prove my
ability to make a substantial
positive impact for the reputa-
tion and attractability of Mason
County. One of the clean-ups I
am most proud of from my time
leading Shelton To The Top was
when I worked with United Way
of Mason County and Skookum
Rotary to clean up a condemned
property on E Street in Shelton.
According to a Shelton-Mason
County Journal article written
six months earlier, there are 53
homes within 300 feet of this
property, which made the entire
neighborhood look bad. I was con-
cerned about all the people who
would drive past this house to vis-
it their friends or family in Shel-
ton for the first time, or to check
out a house they found for sale or
rent online, and leave with that
unsightly property as their first,
and possibly last, impression of
Mason County. I don’t know how
many people have driven by that
house for the first time since we
cleaned it up, but I do remember
the little girl who lived across the
street who came up to us when
we were done to say how happy
she was, because seeing all that
trash from her bedroom window
every night made her scared.
Sometimes it doesn’t take much
to make a big difference. By em-
powering our community to take
large-scale action for the better-
ment of Mason County, we can
transform our county to have the
future we deserve here.
4. County commissioner is a par-
tisan position. Can you promise
voters that if elected your po-
litical affiliation will take a back
seat to the needs of the county?
Yes, I can and will make that
promise. I do not believe county
commissioner should be a parti-
san position — the commission
is a body of three people, not
hundreds — but since it is, I
felt that I should be honest and
transparent about the political
party with which I most closely
identify. My track record shows
that I will always speak truth to
power and do what is right by
my community, regardless of
how any political party or spe-
cial interest might feel about it.
5. What is your greatest criti-
cism of the current commission
and how do you propose to rem-
edy that once in office?
My greatest criticism of the
current commission relates to
its current priorities and lack
of focus or strategic planning.
Mason County continues to see
growth and development, but we
have too many families who are
struggling to pay the bills and too
many people who have not been
properly set up with opportuni-
ties to gain the skills, experience,
mentorship and the personal and
professional networks needed for
a high chance of success. As coun-
ty commissioner, I will work with
Commissioner Neatherlin and
Commissioner Shutty, as I have
in the past, to strategically and
thoughtfully connect the avail-
able resources we have in order
to set our residents up for suc-
cess and build a Mason County
in which people of all generations
are proud and excited to live, vis-
it, work and raise a family.
6. How will Mason County be
improved after four years with
you as a county commissioner
than it is now?
In four years, if I am elected
county commissioner, Mason
County residents will feel like
Mason County has never been
better and will continue on this
positive trajectory. We are going
to give our community, especially
the youth, opportunities to gain
skills, experience, mentorship
and a personal and professional
network, and we are going to do
this in a way that simultaneously
protects and emphasizes the as-
pects of Mason County which are
unique and attractive. After four
years, high-schoolers who would
not have otherwise made it into
the college of their choice, or have
been hired in their desired field,
or have been able to successfully
open their own business here in
Mason County, will have been ac-
cepted into that college, earned
that job, or will have opened
that successful business. In four
years, Mason County is not going
to be a drive-through county; we
are going to be the destination.

Couple arraigned on child abuse charges
By MICHAEL HEINBACH
michael@masoncounty.com
A Belfair couple ac-
cused of physically abus-
ing a 10-year-old boy last
month unsuccessfully
argued for permission to
have supervised visits
with the child during indi-
vidual arraignment hear-
ings Monday in Mason
County Superior Court.
Enoc Juan Garcia, 30,
and his 27-year-old wife,
Claudia Estrada Pastor,
each entered not guilty
pleas to the charges and
had the remainder of
their court schedule set
by Judge Monty Cobb.
The pair is slated for
separate omnibus hear-

July 5 and were freed
the following day from
Mason County Jail after
posting $2,500 bond fol-
lowing initial court ap-
pearances.
At their July 6 initial

with the alleged victim.
Karin Phomma, Mason
County deputy prosecut-

cessfully that because the
alleged victim’s age made
him vulnerable, the case
against his parents could
be compromised should
they be allowed contact
with the child. Before
Cobb ruled in favor of
continuing the conditions
of the no-contact order,
Phomma presented the
court with photos that she
said depicted abrasions,
bruises and swelling on

hands of his father and

in areas contaminated with large
amounts of animal feces.
The maximum penalty for each
Thelma Winger
count of first-degree animal cru-
elty is five years in prison and/or a $10,000 fine.
Shelton man pleads guilty
to DUI, malicious mischief
Ian Shane Bowcutt entered a guilty plea to
amended charges of second-degree
malicious mischief and DUI dur-
ing a change of plea hearing Mon-
day in Mason County Superior
Court.
The 35-year-old Shelton man
was initially charged with two
counts of first-degree malicious
mischief.
Daniel Crawford, deputy Mason Bowcutt
County prosecutor, said he’ll rec-
ommend Bowcutt serve the man-
datory minimum one day in jail on the DUI charge
and spend two years on probation.
Bowcutt is scheduled for sentencing Aug. 6.
According to a Washington State Patrol report,
on Dec. 14 Bowcutt was pulled over while driving
on Adams Street in Shelton and attempted to flee
inside a residence.
Following his arrest and during a blood draw at
Mason General Hospital, the report states Bowcutt
became physically and verbally abusive toward hos-
pital staff and law enforcement.
The report also states that Bowcutt was driving
with a suspended license.
$25,000 warrant
issued for registered
sex offender
A 41-year-old Grapeview man accused of failing
to register as a sex offender did not attended his pre-
trial management hearing Monday in Mason County
Superior Court.
At the request of Daniel Crawford, deputy Mason
County prosecutor, a $25,000 warrant was issued for
Gary Shawn Brown for failure to appear.
A probable cause declaration, written by Detec-
tive Ken Potts of the Mason County Sheriff’s Office,
states Brown missed four weekly check-ins between
August and September 2017.
The probable cause statement adds that in 2002,
Brown was convicted of statutory rape in Squaxin
Island Tribal Court.
Brown has two previous convictions for failing to
register as a sex offender — in 2006 in Mason Coun-
ty and in 2012 in Thurston County.
Omnibus delayed for
suspect in Timberlakes
HOA thefts
The trial schedule for the woman accused of bilk-
ing the Timberlakes Community
Homeowners Association out of
between $83,000 and $89,000 was
delayed after the accused waived
her right to speedy trial Monday
in Mason County Superior Court.
Russchell Lynn Stewart, 42,
appeared for a scheduled omnibus
hearing. That hearing was post-
poned until Aug. 13. Stewart’s
Stewart
pre-trial management hearing was
rescheduled for Sept. 10. Stewart’s
trial is set to begin the week of Oct. 2.
Stewart’s charge of first-degree theft of more than
$5,000 carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in
prison/and or a $20,000 fine, plus court costs and
restitution.

Man suspected in
weekend domestic Congratulations!!
violence incident
Superior court finds probable cause
for assault, kidnapping charges
By MICHAEL HEINBACH
michael@masoncounty.com

A 54-year-old Shelton man was arrested late Sun-

day evening and made an initial appearance Monday
in Mason County Superior Court on domestic vio-
lence allegations.
Probable cause was found for Bradley D. Kenyon
to face charges of first-degree domestic violence kid-
napping and second-degree domestic violence assault
during the man’s initial court appearance. Judge
Monty Cobb set Kenyon’s bail at $75,000 and an ar-
raignment hearing for July 30. Kenyon remained in
Mason County Jail as of Wednesday morning, accord-
ing to the Shelton detention facility’s daily in-custody
report.
Kenyon is suspected of assaulting a 35-year-old
woman Sunday evening at a residence in the 700
block of West Cota Street in Shelton.
According to a Shelton Police Department affida-
vit of probable cause, Kenyon entered the residence
and removed a knife from his pocket. He then report- Celebrating 50 years, Pete and Jan Janda!
edly placed the knife blade against the woman’s left
cheek, telling her, “you better go hide. You’re a snitch.
I’m going to do 24 years because of you.”
The probable cause affidavit states that Kenyon
then tried to force the woman to go with him in his
vehicle. A struggle ensued that the alleged victim re-
ported lasted about two minutes before she ran sev-
eral blocks away and contacted police. The affidavit
adds that several calls 911 calls reported the incident
to law enforcement.
During an interview with a Shelton Police ser-
geant, the alleged victim said she had been in an
on-and-off romantic relationship with Kenyon since
November, that he had previously been abusive to-
ward her and that she though Kenyon assaulted her
in retaliation for “snitching” on him.
According to his Mason County Jail booking/in-
take report, Kenyon was arrested at about 11:20 p.m.
at a residence in the 1500 block of Olympic Highway
North in Shelton, though no details of the man’s ar-
rest is mentioned in police reports.
Kenyon’s criminal history in Mason County in-
cludes convictions for controlled substance violations
in 2010 and 2004, third-degree assault in 2009 and
2007 and unlawful possession of a firearm in 2004.

Tomatoes can be used for a cool summer salad

T
omato season is officially here.
The most prized fruit of the
summer is starting to show up
in gardens and markets. First
you will see the little red and
gold cherry tomatoes and a
few small slicers, and next
will be the gorgeous, tender
heirloom varieties that are so
delicious just sliced and eaten
with a sprinkle of sea salt.

ripened, in-season tomato

about tomatoes. MILLER
The tomato originated
from wild cherry tomatoes
that grow in Peru and Ecuador. The
Incas and the Aztecs domesticated the
first cultivated tomatoes in Peru and
Mexico as early as 700 AD. The word
“tomato” comes from the Aztec word,
tomatl. The tomato came to Europe
and Asia in the 1600s through the Por- refreshing on a hot day. Both of these

became popular in Italian food and
adapted well to the Mediterranean
climate. In England, the tomato was
looked at with suspicion due to be-
ing related to the deadly nightshade
plant and therefore was not widely
used until the 1800s. The
tomato found its way back
to the New World in the late
18th century with European
migration. By the mid-1830s
ketchup was being produced
on an industrial scale in
America.
Botanically, the tomato
is actually a fleshy berry
member of the Solanceous,
or nightshade, family. It is
related to eggplant, peppers,
potatoes, tomatillos and
ground cherries. All of these vegeta-
bles can be found in abundance at the
height of the summer heat.

Fires: Joint meeting planned to discuss heavy fire activity

continued from page A-1
Resources. Spurling said the Sheriff’s
Office was planning to bring together a
task force, comprised of local fire chiefs
and DNR officials, to meet Thursday to
compare notes and discuss the reality
that recent heavy fire activity might
not be entirely due to accidental or nat-
ural causes.
“We’ve had approximately 24 fires
in the area in the last few weeks and
that’s quite a lot for this time of year.
It’s too much,” Spurling said. “Some of
them have some similar characteristics
and others do not. So, we’re going to
bring all the fire chiefs together with
DNR investigators to create a taskforce
with our detectives to help determine if
some of this due to criminal activity.”
Mike Patti, Central Mason Fire &
EMS deputy chief and fire marshal,
after investigating the brush fire near
Grove and South Fifth that burned no
structures and caused no damage or in-
juries, told the Journal that fire activi-
ty has area fire personnel on their toes.
“There’s just too much commonality
between them,” Patti said.
Just after 4 p.m. Tuesday, Hillary
Franz, DNR commissioner of public
lands, posted concerns raised by the
amount of fires in the Mason County
on Twitter.
“In the last 36 hours, @WaDNR fire-
fighters have responded to 8 fires on
DNR-protected areas in and around
Mason County,” read her initial tweet.
She added “This number of fires in the
same area is unusual and concerning.
DNR police are involved and assisting
Mason County Sheriff (Casey) Salis-
bury’s investigation into the cause of
these fires.”
Central Mason Fire & EMS chief
Tim McKern told the Journal on Tues-
day that every fire start in the county
will receive a comprehensive investiga-
tion throughout the summer to search
for potential similarities in their
causes.

Thieves break into marijuana shop twice

Root Cellar Cannabis
owner offers cash reward
BY DANA KAMPA
dana@masoncounty.com
The sight of shattered glass on
the showroom floor was an all-too-
familiar one for Root Cellar Cannabis
staff members when they arrived at
the store early July 13, then again
Wednesday morning.
General Manager Johnathan Es-
posito said the two break-ins happened
within a week, the first at 3:15 a.m.
July 13, as seen in the store’s surveil-
lance footage. A second break-in took
place 1:10 a.m. Wednesday. He said no
employees were at the store during the
Herald photo by Dana Kampa thefts.
With an “open” sign in one window and another temporarily boarded up, Similarly to another theft that oc-
Root Cellar Cannabis deals with a recent break-in. Between when this photo curred there last August, the intrud-
was taken July 17 and Wednesday afternoon, a second break-in occurred. ers broke a front window and targeted
products on the shelves, not cash.
“It was almost identical,” Esposito said
of the August 2017 and July 13 thefts.
The people involved broke the win-
dow right next to the boarded window
Wednesday morning to again gain ac-
cess to the store.
The August break-in was one in a
series of similar thefts that occurred
in Kitsap County, and authorities ap-
prehended suspects a week after. The
two most recent incidents appeared
to be isolated, though Esposito said
from what he could tell in the footage,
the same people carried out both July
break-ins.
In light of the thefts, Esposito said
the owner is offering a cash reward to
anyone who provides information lead-
ing to the arrest of the culprits. The
staff is making plans to reinforce the
front windows, but still hopes to main-
tain the store’s welcoming atmosphere.

Mission Creek center breaks ground on TRAC training facility

TRAC program aims to train skilled laborers tween five and 15 months until
their release date and meet all

to meet increasing market demands

BY DANA KAMPA
dana@masoncounty.com
What comes after prison?
Employees and visiting
representatives broke ground
last week on a new project to
address that very question for
inmates at Mission Creek Cor-
rections Center for Women in
Belfair. The prison is adding
two buildings for its Trades Re-
lated Apprenticeship Coaching
(TRAC) program, which pro-
vides training to inmates for
skilled labor jobs after release.
TRAC, sponsored by the
state Department of Correc-
tions and Correctional Indus-
tries, teaches not only neces-
sary job skills, math and safe-
ty lessons, but also confidence
and self-reliance.
Mission Creek Superinten-
dent Devon Schrum said the
program is a good fit for the
corrections center considering
its focus on life after incarcera-
tion.
“It really employs women
with living wages, and that is
critical to anybody’s success,”
Schrum said. “I’m grateful
for this opportunity. Mission
Creek really is striving to be
the reentry center for women
being released from prison,
and this goes a long way to-
ward getting us to that goal.”
TRAC program instructors
John Brown and Steven Peter-
mann showed where the new
buildings will be located on the
facility’s grounds, providing a
place for inmates to get hands-
on experience in fields such as
carpentry, construction and
iron working. Building A will
have space for tools, covered
material storage and a dry
shack, and Building B will be
a covered, open-air work area.
The construction will cost
approximately $65,000, Brown
said, adding that it likely
would have been more than
$250,000 had the entire proj-
ect gone out for bid. TRAC stu-
dents will be able to help with
some parts of the construction.
For parts that still may be too
complex, Brown said the plan
is to bring in experts.
“I guarantee you it’s the
biggest project that TRAC stu-
dents have ever done,” Brown
said. “But I am so excited
about that.”
Mission Creek houses 350
incarcerated women, and only
those who remain infraction-
free for at least 90 days, are
able to get a GED, have be-
other requirements can par-
ticipate in TRAC.
But before project leaders
and guests broke out gold-
covered shovels and bright
green TRAC construction
helmets, Mission Creek
hosted a ceremony lauding the
benefits of the program.
During the ceremony, Pe-
termann’s voice faltered when
presenting the estimated
wages and benefits earned by
TRAC graduates since the pro-
gram’s inception — $1.6 mil-
lion.
“That’s moving to me, abso-
lutely,” Petermann said, pledg-
ing to double that amount in
the coming years.
TRAC has operated for
more than 20 years, and in
the last five years has trained
more than 100 people for the
workforce, with 31 current
registered apprentices and an-
other seven in the application
process.
“I think those numbers are
what really takes it over the
top,” Petermann said.
Brown said he appreciates
providing opportunities and
hope to women at Mission
Creek through TRAC, and see-

MARY’S MEMOIRS

Mary dances with old friends at the Blue Ox

Thursday, July 18, 1940
This day I went on the hike ner together and had a good
with the Girl Scouts and had
the best time. There were
thirteen of us including Lou-
ise and I. We left the store
about nine ten and
came home at three.
Mrs. Culbertson and
Mrs. Kitock came
down for us. None of
the girls got too tired
and all enjoyed the
swim. In the evening
the Sundstroms came
down and we had a
fine visit. Gave Alma By SEYTA
some flowers and had SELTER
some ice cream. They
went home late and
went to bed. The moon was
out and it was so nice out. Al- Social Club picnic. Sam, Em-
most a shame to go to bed on
such a fine evening.
Friday, July 19, 1940
A terrible hot day and in
the morning I changed the
beds and did the ironing and
then in the afternoon went to
Skenes’ and there I met Mrs.
McGrath and her husband
and then in later came Mrs.
Berry and Mrs. Peterson. We
all made a lavender stick and
they looked very nice. Then
went out and played croquet
and had tea and some of the
lovely sandwiches that Mrs.
Linstead made that looked
like flowers. I had to go early evening Sam and I went to the
so the men could go to the
fight and at the store we
surely had a busy time. Aunt
Mary came in and we ate din-
visit. Then home to the beach
and who should come down
but Rudy for his wife was get-
ting a wave in her hair and he
did not know what
to do with himself.
Now I’m going to
do all the mending
and then that will
be done for another
week. Louise is busy
weaving on the red
rug and is doing a
fine job. Henry and
Laurice were down
last Tuesday but
I did not see them
for they came when
I was in Bremerton to the
mett and Al, Bill Cady and
Pink all went to the Al Hostak
fight tonight and will have
a fun time. They all had on
wine colored shirts but Bill
Cady and they wanted him to
change but he said he wanted
to be different. They all had
bought the shirts at the store.
Saturday, July 20, 1940
This was a busy day and
I worked at the store all day
and in the evening in came
Annie, John, Jack and Marie
and someone had struck her
new car in Tacoma and she
felt very badly about it. In the
Blue Ox and it was like old
home at night for all the folks
we knew were there: the Lud
Andersons, the Addlemens,
Vernie and Wanda, Erma and
Dahl, Husons and Mrs. Rend-
sland from Tahuya; the old
mail girl, and her husband,
and then from here were:
Doug and Aggie, Gene Girrior
his wife, Pink and Lavina,
the Combs, the Earhenfields,
the Joe and Carol Hertz and
Chet Matthews and Al Ettlin,
Pearsalls and Oscar Mickel-
sons, the Dudley Thomases,
Dorothy Eddy and Mrs. Kruse
and Fern, and Joe Hackett.
The floor was fine and so was
the crowd but the music was
terrible and we wished for
that lovely music at Perl’s.
Sunday, July 21, 1940
A warm day and we had a
late breakfast and then Sam
and John went to Dewatto
with the big truck to deliver a
roll of cable to the Maine Log
Co. Then we sat on the lawn
and sewed and in the after-
noon went in the water and it
was fine. The folks went home
early for Marie did not want
to drive in the dark. Mr. and
Mrs. Peterson were in and
brought the big reed in so we
can use it in the next warp
up. In the evening went to the
show with Flossie Cady and
saw “Untamed” and it was
fine. To bed late.
Monday, July 22, 1940
A very hot day and we got
all the washing done and
dried. Sam went to town
and in the afternoon I went
to see my dad and found
Mrs. Fletcher and Helen
there picking cherries. Mrs.
Deutsch, who was once my
teacher as Miss Mackstoth,
came in with her two children
and I certainly was glad to
see her. She looked just the
same but was getting a little
gray. Her two children were
real nice. We had quite a
visit. Home early and took a
good swim and then did the
mending and some writing.
To bed early for I’m quite
tired and tomorrow I shall be
out late. Dorothy Casebeerr
was in and we decided to
have Mrs. Linstead make the
salad and help us for about
four hours and that will
make us have more time. I
saw Mrs. Linstead and Mrs.
Skene both today and they
are both well.
Tuesday, July 23, 1940
A nice day but cool and
we got all the ironing done
and several other things that
needed attention. In the eve-
ning I went to Union chapter
with Alma Nelson, her sister
and two others from our chap-
ter. We had a fine time and
enjoyed the talk by the grand
worthy matron of the state of
Washington. Home late and
to bed.
Wednesday, July 24, 1940
Another cool morning and
I washed all the doilies and
the big rug from out on the
back porch so there will be
nothing dirty next Friday
when the Officers Club meets
here. Yesterday there was a
fight in the store. A man from
town tried to repossess a car
and the owner took the key
away from him and knocked
him down right in front of
the coffee grinder and there
was a lot of excitement for
a while. When the man ran
in back to the post office and
wanted to call the cops and
I told him to get out of the
store and that if he wanted
to use the phone the public
phone booth was up in the
front of the store. He stood
there like he was frightened
to death and finally ran out
of the store. Lee had to run
after him and get our broom
that he had taken along for
protection. Called up Flossie
and she will make the cake
for the luncheon and I’m very
happy over it as she does
such a good job and we want
all to be perfect.

North Shore mining business explores expansion potential
BY DANA KAMPA
dana@masoncounty.com
A North Shore Road mining
company is seeking to poten-
tially ramp up its production,
though on a 100-year timeline.
Grump Ventures LLC is a
gravel mining business based
approximately 5 miles south-
west of downtown Belfair, the
only active mine in the area,
that recently applied to be able
to expand its operations.
The family has owned the
66.5 acres of land for more
than 70 years, and owner Rus-
sell Scott said the application
was a proactive measure that
would allow him to mine gla-
cial sand and gravel deposits
based on demand.
“Getting all the paperwork
in order is really what it boils
down to,” Scott said, explain-
ing that he didn’t have a spe-
cific expansion timeline for the
next few years. “We’re a small
community, and I just don’t
know how much the local mar-
ket can absorb.”
Grump Ventures applied to
allow “intensification of ongo-
ing gravel mining activity” on
its property. Though mining
is no longer an allowed land
use in the rural residential
zone, the property owner has
the right to expand operations
within the property it already
owns, according to the Dimin-
ishing Asset Doctrine.
The company recently ap-
plied for a surface mining and
reclamation permit from the
state Department of Natural
Resources, concerning what

the site would look like when
the mining is done. The state
Department of Ecology must
also approve a sand and gravel
general permit for keeping the
environment around the pit
safe.
“The county’s piece in it is
that they’ve applied for a log-
ging permit,” Mason County
planner Michael MacSems
said recently in an interview
with the Belfair Herald. “Be-
cause a local permit is re-
quired, and that permit is
subject to review under SEPA
(State Environmental Policy
Act), ... the agencies involved
are trying to determine what
this is, and what are the ef-
fects going to be, and how are
they going to be mitigated?”
This places the county as
the lead agency, and the in-
volved state agencies will
use information gathered by
the county in approving their
own permits. As MacSems
explained, the county permit
would allow Grump Ventures
to mine parcel by parcel, not
all 50 minable acres at once.
He said this and the sur-
rounding trees would help to
muffle noise pollution.
According to the SEPA
Mitigated Determination of
NonSignificance application
submitted April 16, “the heavy
machinery used will be fairly
typical for a gravel pit opera-
tion. ... There could be times
when the pit is inactive, due to
the economic demand for ma-
terials.”

vironmental health hazards

Trades Related Apprenticeship Coaching (TRAC) students will be able to help with construction of a new workshop at Mission Creek Corrections Center
for Women in Belfair, where they will practice trade skills and prepare for living-wage jobs after being released.

was meaningful.
“This is what it takes, this
sort of representation,” Brown
said to the assembly of union
representatives, corrections
administrative staff and pro-
gram graduates. “I am very
proud to be standing here to-
day.”
One of the guest speak-
ers was Nicole Shaw, a TRAC
graduate from a different fa-
cility. Shaw recently bought a
home, a life-changing moment
she said likely wouldn’t have
been possible without the pro-
gram.
“I’m never out of work lon-
ger than a week,” Shaw said. “I
can say that I’m secure in my
life. I can say that I don’t have
to worry about anything.”
Having complete medical
and dental coverage adds an-
other layer of stability, Shaw
said. To Mission Creek’s fu-
ture students, she offered a
few words of advice:
“The fact that it’s coming
here, to you guys right before
you leave, take full advantage
of that. … Put your mind to it.
Just focus, and you’ll hit the
ground running. I know I did.
I would not have done it had it
not been for TRAC, and had it
not been for Steve and Cindy,
pushing me and having my
back.”
Chris Palouse, executive di-
rector of the Statewide Reen-
try Council, joined in to share
his journey to sobriety and
the importance of programs
focused on helping inmates
transition back into society.
The council, created two years
ago by the state Legislature,
offers insight into what is and
isn’t working for formerly in-
carcerated people as they seek
jobs, housing and other oppor-
tunities.
As someone in long-term re-
covery from addiction, Palouse
said having the type of sup-
port TRAC offers can be the
difference between being a
“tornado,” harming loved ones
and community members, and
being a “rock,” a solid figure at
home and beyond.
“Instead of just leaving a
trail of wreckage, now I’m
committed to helping build
our communities and build
our families and build rela-
tionships and make positive

JUST PEACHY
The King’s
move to the
City of Angels
L
ast weekend, I flew to Los Angeles
to visit my sister. When I landed in
Los Angeles, I jumped on the bus
and rode to Union Station to meet her
for lunch. While on the bus, we passed
the Staples Center, the home of the Los
Angeles Lakers. I pressed my face up to
the glass and took in what is a staple in
sports arenas — no pun intended.
What struck me about the facility was
a lack of promotional material or ban-
ners hanging outside to advertise what
some people are calling the biggest move
this year in the NBA
— LeBron James sign-
ing with the Lakers
via free agency. I had
recently seen a post on
Instagram of a street
artist painting a mu-
ral depicting LeBron
in a Lakers uniform
said, “The King.” A
By ALEXANDRA few days later, the
SMITH mural was painted
over and there was no
indication the mural
had ever existed besides the online posts.
I was intrigued as to how Lakers fans
felt about the move and was confused
about how they could be upset about
gaining what many have argued to be the
best basketball player in history.
LeBron has established himself as the
kingpin of the Cleveland Cavaliers and
the franchise’s most important player.
He helped end Cleveland’s 52-year pro-
fessional sports championship drought
when the Cavaliers won the NBA
championship in 2016, rallying from a
3-1 NBA Finals deficit to overcome the
onslaught of the Golden State Warriors.
LeBron has already been ingrained in
NBA history as one of the greatest play-
ers in basketball with his solid play and
consistency, as well as a Cavaliers legend
for bringing them a championship and
making them perennial title contenders
with his presence.
I found out that one of my sister’s
neighbors, Omar Williams, is a LeBron
fan, so I figured what better way to bet-
ter understand feelings about the move
to LA than to talk to a local.
“There were mixed reviews here in
LA,” Omar told me. “Some true LA fans
were happy and excited just to win more
games, but some were still on the whole,
‘I hate LeBum and he is not our king’
thing.”
There were a lot of factors that went in
to LeBron’s decision to move to Los Ange-
les. His son, LeBron James Jr. (known by
many as Bronny), has “committed” to the
Sierra Canyon School — where Kenyon
Martin and Scottie Pippen’s sons cur-
rently play — in the LA suburbs.
“Personally, I think it was a good
move for him,” Omar said. “I know his
son wanted to play at one of the LA
schools, and I can only imagine that he
will get to play with and against more
competition that in Cleveland. More
scouts will be able to see him and better
assess him. I know LeBron has a home
out here, so it makes sense. Also, I think
it would be awesome for him to learn

Love INC hosts golf fundraiser
By ALEXANDRA SMITH

The eighth annual Love
INC golf tournament was
held Monday at Alderbrook
Golf & Yacht Club.
Over 160 golfers par-
ticipated in the scramble
event.
Love INC was founded
in 2008 and the golf tour-
nament began in 2011 as a
fundraiser and “friendrais-
er” for the nonprofit group,
said Virginia McCarty, who
has been involved with the
tournament since its incep-
tion.
Love INC is a Shelton-
based nonprofit that mo-
bilizes churches in Mason
County to assist people in
need. There are 27 local
churches that partner with
Love INC to link ministries
and volunteers to people in
need.
The tournament, which
raises money for the non-
profit group, helped 1,366
families last year through
funds raised at the tourna-
ment.
Love INC executive di-
rector Linda Myers said
the group is starting a Jobs
for Life program in Sep-
tember. The move is part of
Love INC’s vision to extend
its scope beyond goods to
tranfoming lives.
Love INC clearinghouse
hours are 10 a.m. to 3
p.m. Tuesdays through
Thursdays. For more

• Moving tip: Put books into suitcases,

which often have wheels and good handles,
in order to transport them. Books placed
in boxes can get unbalanced when they
don’t fill the box efficiently. It makes them
hard to carry and hard to stack, since you
risk the corners crushing. But suitcases
are easy to carry right to the shelf before
unloading.
• Finding a bandage to cover a skinned
knee or elbow is almost impossible. These
can be a large or irregular area that
doesn’t fit under even the most generous
of bandages, and adhesive bandages just
don’t stick well over a joint. Here’s a tip for
that: Apply antibacterial ointment gener-
ously, then cover the knee or elbow with
a regular gauze pad. Then add a “sleeve”
cut from a pair of tights. It moves with
the joint without bunching up the way an
ACE bandage does, and it stays in place.
• After the kids decorated cupcakes one
day, I found that the counter and floor
were covered with little spilled sprinkles.
They were the ball kind, and they were
hard to pick up. Rather than sweeping
them up (which made them go flying), I
used a lint roller, which worked perfectly.
• To save money on electricity, hang jeans
and other heavy clothing to dry first. When
it’s mostly dry, pop it in the dryer to fluff.
Do the same with towels. The dryer soft-
ens it, but the sunlight dries it well, and it
smells better too.

Glenn Newbury, son of
Miles and Ruth (Arnold)
Newbury, went Home on
June 22, 2018 in Grape-

was a proud Peninsula
High graduate, class of
1960. After graduation
he joined the US Navy.
He later retired from the
Puget Sound Naval Ship-
yard, Shop 72-Rigger. He
was preceded in death by
his parents, brother Wil-
liam Levi (age 4 months),
sister Mary Alice Tuck-
er, and cousin (and best
friend) Gene Newbury
on Christmas Eve. He is
survived by his children
Jason (Kara) and Peg-
gie (Todd), 3 grandchil-
dren: Taylor, Maggie, and
Keenan, 6 step-children,
several step-grandchil-
dren, including Meg
Bartosovsky, and cousin
Ruby Mae.
He loved fishing, NAS-

his favorite driver and
a definite look-alike),
crossword puzzles, the
Seahawks, writing notes,
dancing, rock-and-roll
(Elvis Presley of-course),
cooking, and his dog El-

saw his grandchildren
3 times over 15 years,
he got a chance to get to
know them in the past
15 months. It was a true
blessing, and one that the
family is genuinely thank-

ful for. He watched soccer
and basketball games,
children’s plays, and
laughed a lot. It was a joy
for him to help Taylor and
Meg in their young adult-
hood, and to sit with Mag-
gie talking. The last thing
he did with Keenan was
eat ice cream, with a big
smile on his face.
A casual, but honoring,
memorial for dad will be
held at Belfair Commu-
nity Church in Belfair on
July 21, at 11:00 followed
