Festival By The Bay
“Cycling Fish”
The winning entry in the Port Ludlow Festival Association
commemorative poster contest was submitted by Mena
Quilici of Port Townsend. Her work might be described as
“twisted realism;” stylized paintings filled with unexpected
color, twisted perspectives, odd views, fun animals and
whimsical landscapes.
Working in acrylics Quilici enjoys the rich, juicy paint—
quickly working and reworking a painting layer by layer
until she’s satisfied with colors, forms and composition.
“The image for this painting just kind of popped into my
head while I was walking along the beach, enjoying the
reflections along the shore,” said Quilici. Thinking about
salmon for dinner and the amazing breeding cycle they
endure, she a suddenly saw images of salmon “cycling.”
Poster contest applications were sent
to galleries in the area with instructions to depict the spirit of Port Ludlow. Jeanette Best, Poster Contest
Chairman, coordinated the application process and graphic designer
Gay Stack, a graphic designer for
over 20 years with clients in California and Washington, was the juror.
Posters can be purchased at Friday Poster Artist Mena Quilici.

Vicci Martinez Sings
at Festival By The Bay
The headliner for this year’s Festival By The Bay is Vicci
Martinez,who will perform with her band Saturday, July
30, 8:00 p.m. on the Mainstage by the water. Admission
to her concert is one of the benefits of owning a Festival
By The Bay access button, priced at $5 before the event
or $7 that night. (See Article on buttons on page 2.)
When first hearing Vicci Martinez sing, you know immediately you are experiencing something special. Though
only 26, she writes, sings and plays guitar with the touch
of a veteran performer. Indeed, she auditioned for and
was selected for NBC’s new show, The Voice, and moved
up to the second level, the live performance part of the
competition. With a passionate voice, profound lyrics and
incendiary performances, this Tacoma native’s contagious
live shows have received critical acclaim throughout the
Northwest and now the Nation.
Martinez’ inspiration comes from family as well as from
musical figures like Sarah McLachlan, Jewel and Dave
Matthews. She delivers intensely personal songs wrapped
in her soulful emotive voice. The power of her voice
defies her petite stature and the soulfulness of her guitar
playing is beyond her years.
“I know everyone says, ‘Oh, I come from humble beginnings’,” Martinez says. “But it’s what I want to keep. I
want the music to be for everyone. I have the ability to
say what I want to say, and that’s how I want to keep it.”
When leading her band Vicci turns her concerts into
full-on events, taking her audiences on thrilling journeys of emotional peaks and musical adventures. She
is as comfortable playing an intimate solo gig as she is
headlining festivals. She has shared the bill with artists
ranging from Sting to blues legend BB King.
Vicci is trying to achieve a tricky balance. The kind
you get from a history that started as a 13-year-old girl
who balked at joining her school choir, but thrived as a
soloist with a successful appearance on Star Search. Her
American Idol audition got her a ticket to Hollywood that
she declined because she decided “not to sell her soul.”
She has chosen to stay true to her music and her fans.
Over the past 10 years Vicci has released six independent
solo projects plus a live DVD. This history defines her as
an artist who wants to shape her career entirely from her
heart.
Building on a rich history of performing and writing,
Vicci is taking her career to a new level by collaborating
with some of the finest songwriters in the country and
signing with new management. Her new project, NBC’s
The Voice sidelined this last project. In the blind auditions
she was selected to join a team coached by musician and
producer Cee Lo Green. The May 30-June 5 issue of TV
Guide featured her as one of the four likely to win. The
Port Ludlow Festival Association is thrilled to have her
entertain us.

Port Ludlow is throwing a “party to end all parties,” Port
Ludlow’s Festival By The Bay, on Friday, Saturday and

Festival By The Bay Car Show and Shine. So, you
purchased this car in one of those rare irrational impulse
moments.You knew it had limited space for passengers

made you feel. It is time to uncover and polish that prized
possession in your garage for the Car Show. Registration
is limited to the first 80 cars. The $25 registration fee
includes breakfast for two at the Car Show Breakfast at
10:30 a.m. at the Beach Club. Show and Shine awards

Festival Partners
Festival By The Bay promises fabulous community
entertainment, but the benefits don’t stop there. Profits
from the event will be shared by two worthy community
organizations, Olympic Community Action Programs
(OlyCAP) and Chimacum Schools.
OlyCAP, under Executive Director Tim Hockett, is affiliated with many agencies on the North Olympic Peninsula
and provides an array of services. From Brinnon to Forks
they work with others on transportation issues, housing,
homelessness and access to health care. At Festival By
The Bay OlyCAP will display a new delivery truck for its
food distribution program, replacing their older, wellworn one. OlyCAP is normally busy delivering to food
banks and soup kitchens across the Peninsula, but will
exhibit the truck for us.
Chimacum High School Coach Tony Haddenham is coordinating the 3K Fun Run; Superintendent Craig Downs
will be running. Money earned from this event will go to
the Chimacum Boosters to benefit the school’s Athletic
Program. Furthermore, many students will be volunteering in several areas of the event as well.
The Festival Association Board sees the Festival as a way
to reach out to its neighbors on the Peninsula.

Festival Golf Tournament
The 2011 Annual Festival By The Bay Golf Tournament
will take place Friday, July 29 at the Port Ludlow Golf
Club (PLGC). This tournament has consistently drawn
a maximum field of players in each of the past several
years. Why? Because the format and organization of play
is great fun for all participants!
Again this year, four player teams will compete in a
Scramble format for prestige and prizes. Prizes will be
awarded for both gross and net scores. In this format each
player hits every shot but moves his or her ball to the
best position achieved by the team. To keep the competition more even, all players’ tee shots must be used on
a minimum number of holes. While teams of four are
encouraged, smaller teams and individuals are welcome.
The Pro Shop staff will combine these entries into
competitive four-player teams.
The entry fee remains low at $41.25 per PLGC member
player ($165 per member team) or $70 per non-member
player ($280 per non-member team). The competition,
tee prize, golf cart, range balls, winners’ prizes and
BBQ dinner are included in the fee. Teams will check-in
beginning at 11:00 a.m. on tournament day with all teams
teeing off at 1:00 p.m. in a Shotgun start. Scorecards
will be turned in at the Festival site, located at the Port
Ludlow Marina, after completion of play. Winners will be
announced at Center Stage and the Barbecue dinner will
be served at the Beer and Wine Garden.
Registration forms are available at the Pro Shop of the
Golf Club now. Don’t delay—the field has closed early
for this popular event in the past.
Art Show Gallery
at Festival By The Bay
The 2011 Port Ludlow Artists’ League Gallery of Art
will debut at a fabulous Wine and Cheese Party at the
Harbormaster on Friday, July 29, at 6:00 p.m. The Inn
At Port Ludlow will provide the wine and the League will
provide cheese and crackers. Wear your Festival Button
and receive your first glass of wine free.
This Art Show during the Festival By The Bay replaces
the League’s 10th annual Art Walk and will showcase
the fine art work of 33 artists from Port Ludlow and
surrounding areas all under one roof. The show opens in
the morning Saturday, July 30, at 10:00 a.m. and closes
Sunday, July 31 at 4:00 p.m. Your eyes and hearts will
feast on beautiful art pieces and you’ll have a great opportunity to visit with the local artists and talk with them
about their work or commission them to design a special
piece of jewelry, glass plate or mask, gourd, floor cloth,
gift or a painting for your home in various media.
Many of the artists will have affordable cards and prints
for you to buy and take home. Some of the artists will be
demonstrating their talents, such as Jodie Morris weaving
a shell or stone into her creative pine needle baskets.
And there are new artists to the League, Randy and Sallie
Radock from Sequim, showing their block prints and
photography, Winifred Whitfield with her digital photo art
and Sharon Zablotney with her silversmith expertise, to
mention only a few. (See list of exhibiting artists and their
media, page 6.)
This special weekend promises to be the place to be to
celebrate why we live in such a beautiful part of this
country. And each artist has his/her own story to share
with you; share your story with them! Help kick off the
Gallery with a celebration on Friday, July 29 at 6:00 p.m.

Festival By The Bay Disclaimer
by Bob Olbrych, President, Port Ludlow Festival Association
In the spring of 2011 the Port Ludlow Festival
Association (PLFA) was established as a stand-alone,
non-profit organization. Port Ludlow’s Festival By The
Bay has been developed as an annual summer legacy
event for Port Ludlow and the greater Olympic Peninsula
community.
To meet the PLFA goal, Jefferson County requirements
had to be met. Festival By The Bay has filed Special
Event Permit No. 01-11. Requirements of this permit
include on-site medical assistance, liability insurance
coverage, recycling, traffic control and compliance with
the Washington State Fireworks License, Pyrotechnic
Operator license, Health Department and Food Handlers,
as well as standards set by Port Ludlow Fire and Rescue
(PLFR) and the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department.
A wonderful three-day event has been planned. Mix in a
few warm, sunny days and many smiling faces and Port
Ludlow will have a Festival of which we can be proud.

“Livin’ the Dream”
by Beverly Browne, Managing Editor
by Diane Ruff, Contributing Writer
July is a big month in Port Ludlow; this year it’s
bigger than ever. The Port Ludlow Festival By The
Bay (formerly Port Ludlow Days) takes place Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, July 29, 30 and 31. Your neighbors have toiled diligently to pull it off but it is bigger
and better than ever under the leadership of Bob Olbrych.
Linda Karp has amassed an outstanding array of vendors
offering everything from exotic foods to local crafts.
Many of your favorites are back.
Editor’s Note: Summer is the time to invite friends and family to visit
Port Ludlow. Diane Ruff’s article is designed to be passed along to
them as an enticement to come.
The Artists’ League will have a terrific display of work
in the Harbormaster, replacing the usual Art Walk, and
we thank Port Ludlow Associates (PLA) for providing
that space. The Beer and Wine Garden will be waiting for
you to wet your whistle. Chow down on something your
doctor says you shouldn’t have from one or several of the
Food Vendors. There will be world-class entertainment,
a car show, golf tournament, tennis tournament, kayak
races, an Etchells regatta, hula dancers—it just goes on
and on. The Coast Guard will be here; so will the Fire and
Sheriff Departments. This is when Port Ludlow shows
what it is all about. It is the biggest little party on the
Peninsula. Don’t miss it.
The calendar is crowded because Music on the Green
Celebrates Americana on Sunday, July 24. The entertainers this year are exceptional—the sweetheart of
Country Music Mary Wiles and the Deadwood Revival
Band. (See related story on page 29.) This is a special
event for Port Ludlow when residents and neighbors
gather with their low-backed chairs on the lawn of the
Bay Club for a hand-clapping, foot-stomping good time
with friends. The ever-popular Dos Okies will be offering
food for sale or you can take your own for a picnic on the
lawn; the Arts Council will run its popular beer and wine
booth. Be sure to take sunscreen and a big hat; the sun
always shines on Music on the Green.
Other events this month include Independence Day
celebrations and the Susan G. Komen Rally for the
Cure hosted by Port Ludlow’s women golfers. There are
evening sails on Ludlow Bay, hikes, special events at the
Golf Course and tennis for young and old. Invite all your
friends for a terrific time in July when Ludlow shows off.
The views expressed in this editorial are the author’s opinion and
should not be construed to represent the opinions of others on the
Voice staff.
“Livin’ the dream” is not just a slogan. It’s a reality for
visitors and residents in Port Ludlow. With the view of
the snow capped mountains and shimmering water, and
the sound of the swaying trees in the surrounding forest,
nothing could be more beautiful and peaceful. Whether you’re into hiking, tennis, golf, boating, plays,
entertainment, outdoor or indoor concerts, community
get-togethers or hundreds of activities at two Clubs
with pools and exercise rooms, you’ll find all you need
here. Over 30 organized social clubs allow residents to
indulge their interests. Visitors stay at a beautiful bedand-breakfast style Inn overlooking the Marina or in
fully stocked condominiums, both perfect for that family
reunion, business conference or wedding. Visit portludlowresort.com or call 800-732-1239 for details.
Entertain family, friends or business associates at The
Inn’s Fireside Restaurant featuring Northwest cuisine
to please any palate. Practice your skills at The Port
Ludlow Golf Course, an Audubon Sanctuary offering golf
instruction, putting greens and 18 holes with spectacular
views. I’ve often referred to this beautiful Northwest
resort area as a summer camp for adults.
Visitors can reach Port Ludlow from Highway 3 North or
Highway 104, going west across the Hood Canal Bridge,
traveling a quarter mile and turning right onto Paradise
Bay Road. Port Ludlow is approximately five miles. It is
also easily accessible from downtown Seattle or Edmonds
and a scenic drive from Bainbridge Island or Kingston.
Some of the most beautiful scenery in the Northwest is in
Port Ludlow; pick up a Trail Guide at one of the local real
estate offices, The Inn, Bay or Beach Club. Ludlow Falls
is a short walk accessed near Kitsap Bank.
The summer Music on the Green is Sunday, July 24, or
return throughout the year for Arts Council concerts. The
following week on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July
29, 30 and 31 it gets even better! Festival By The Bay
features food, crafts, music and fun. Spend a night or
two at The Resort At Port Ludlow and dine on fresh local
seafood overlooking the Marina. Visit the Festival, then
rent a kayak or boat and explore the surrounding waterways. Whether you are hiking, boating or just relaxing,
The Inn will pack a picnic for you. continued on next page

Annual Port Ludlow Garden Tour
What is the Friday Market?
The annual Garden Tour sponsored by the Port Ludlow
Garden Club (PLGC) will be held Wednesday, July 13.
Five beautiful local gardens are featured on the tour, which
is open to the public. Registration will be at the Beach Club
from 9:30 to 11:00 a.m. Brochures featuring descriptions
of the gardens, a map and tour tickets will be available
free to PLGC members, $10 for non-members. The selfguided tour runs from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Participants
are reminded that the gardens will not open prior to 10:00
a.m. Carpooling and comfortable walking shoes for varied
terrains are recommended. Pack a picnic lunch to enjoy
along the way or stop for lunch at a local restaurant.
Judi and Richard Smith met the challenge of developing a rural, part casual, part formal garden on their 5.4
acres complicated by a 40-foot rise from street to house.
Each area has a special feel whether it is a meandering
pathway, a rockery or a collection of succulents.
Susan and Floyd Shelton drew on their world travels
in planning their garden that is apparent in the Chinese
red accents in blossoms, trees and architectural features.
Their new rose and perennial garden and a display of bird
houses collected on their travels make this a picturesque
stop on the tour.
Peggy and Homer Evans have many elevated garden
areas including a Zen garden, a waterfall and fishpond.
Their back yard borders natural forest land for a tranquil
private feeling and they have built several hardscape
features to add their own personal touch.
Dorothy and Dan Kimble have kept the waterfront part of
their property quite natural while focusing their efforts on
the acre in front that features over 100 species of plants
arranged in berms. Their garden/summer house and patio
provide the perfect spot to enjoy the results.
In addition to the homeowner gardens listed above, the Native
Plants Garden located near the Village Center and leading to
the Ludlow Falls Interpretive Trail will also be included.
Anyone wanting to join PLGC prior to the garden tour
may do so by sending a $20 check to PLGC, P.O. Box
65235, Port Ludlow, WA 98365. Membership provides
free attendance on the Garden Tour, reduced rates for field
trips and admittance to the members-only holiday tea.

John and Sandie Schmidt, the saints of Friday Market.
Provided photo.
Some of the members of the community think our Friday
Market is just an arts and crafts market. But this is not true.
Granted, we are not as large as the markets in Port
Townsend or Poulsbo. But, we have a lot of vendors that
are associated with the term “Farmers Market.” We have
true farmers, with different fruits and vegetables when in
season. We also have a variety of plant people including
fresh cut flowers and hanging baskets, tomato plants etc.
There are fresh cheeses, fresh bakery items, nuts, honey,
jams and jellies, oils for cooking and more. Fresh beef and
a large variety of fresh seafood are waiting for you at the
Friday Market. And don’t forget fresh treats for your pets. In addition we have lunch: burritos, tacos, brat sandwiches and other items. You can attend our Friday Market
and get all the food you need for that weekend dinner!
Of course, we do have arts and crafts as well. Whether
you’re looking for a gift, something for a friend or just
yourself—it’s there. Cards to go with that gift, too. We
have wood crafters of a large variety of items you can use
in your kitchen, jewelry makers, purse and bag makers,
yard art and art for your home.
The Port Ludlow Friday Market averages 25 to 35
vendors. We are very lucky to have these vendors who
are here for you. So please, come and support your
local Market. If you have any questions, contact Sandie
Schmidt at 437-0882 or e-mail [email protected].

Chimacum High School
student, Thomas “Tom” Beres,

staff is made up of 12 professional musicians. Beres will

Washington, Oregon, Montana
and British Columbia. Asked what he hopes to achieve at
the seven-day camp, he said he wanted to improve in all
areas of playing and reading music. by Adele Govert, Habitat Volunteer
Beres has been playing the trumpet in the school band
since 5th grade. Now at age 16, he plays in the Chimacum
High School band as well as the jazz band. Being a
part of the school band is what he enjoys most about
school. With so many of the senior band members graduating, he will have some big shoes to fill in the fall and is
hoping to learn new things that he can take back and share
with his fellow band members. One of the Arts Council’s missions is to support music
education in our schools. Also it sponsors school concerts
in conjunction with visiting professional talent booked to
perform for Ludlow concerts. Moreover, the Council has
provided tuition for several Chimacum schools’ musicians
to attend the jazz camp. Early in 2012 they have arranged
for two student concerts, one for Chimacum Elementary
and another for high school students.
A Morning Surprise: the
Neighborhood Bobcat
As Dick Borsini was shaving early on June 10, he heard
his wife Jeanna screaming, “There’s a cougar in the backyard!” While it wasn’t a cougar, it was a bobcat, slinking
around the bushes and heading down the ravine, probably
to drink from the stream. The loud sound of crows flying
over their courtyard and roof was the first sign that something had been amiss.
The Borsini home on Ludlow Bay Road is located about
50 feet from the walking trail to the north side of Paradise
Bay Road. The sighting should remind residents in the
area to be careful about letting pets or children play
outside alone.
Eight couples from Colorado, Washington, Texas, Nevada,
Arizona and Montana (Care-a-Vanners) will be arriving
and living in their RVs this month as they work each day
on a Habitat construction site in Port Townsend. Lunches
and sweet treats are needed for them Monday through
Friday, July 18 to 22. Lunch drop-off is at 12:15 p.m. and
sweet treat drop-off is anytime before 10:30 a.m. How about asking your book club, walking group, exercise class, garden club, sewing club, sailing group, golf
group, bridge group or just friends to volunteer to provide
a lunch and/or snack for one day? You could make sandwiches or wraps or buy something at your favorite deli.
Fruit, a salad or some chips, will round out the meal for
16 to 18 hard workers! Through the efforts of the membership of all the interested groups in Port Ludlow we could feed the Care-AVanners all of the ten days they are working here in July.
For additional information or to volunteer, call Volunteer
Coordinator Katie Davis at 379-2827 or e-mail her at
[email protected]. If you want to contact a local Port
Ludlow volunteer, call Adele Govert at 437-8090.

Artists’ League Artists of the Month
Celebrate in July with all the artists who entered the Port
Ludlow Artists’ League’s (PLAL) May challenge, “The
Art of Cliches!” Members picked a cliché from a little
brown bag filled by Jeanne Joseph, PLAL Gallery Chair,
then used their individual mediums to bring those sayings
to life. Some artists were brave enough to tackle two! The
cliché renderings were brought to the May meeting where
they were displayed to the delight of all members present.
Chuckles, oohs and aahs filled the air as members viewed
each other’s masterpieces for the first time.
The collection will hang at the Columbia Bank during the
month of July. You’re invited to join League members at
their First Friday reception on Friday, July 1 from 4:005:00 p.m. in the bank lobby, and 5:00-6:00 p.m., in the

FBI Speaker to
Appear in Port Ludlow
Have you ever been the victim of a scam?
Do you know someone whose identity has been stolen?
Have you heard of a “Nigerian letter” or a “419” fraud?
Do you know whom to contact if you suspect you are the
victim of a scam?
Fraud and scams are occurring every day in our country.
The best defense is to be aware of common scams and
to learn tips to help you from becoming victimized. The
Community Enrichment Alliance (CEA) is proud to bring
Scott Pickle from the Seattle Field Office of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to Port Ludlow to discuss
Internet and other common scams.

Broom Sweep in July!
by Jack Manning, Port Ludlow Trails/Natural Resources
Scotch Broom has swept our community with a
vengeance this year but Port Ludlow Trails/Natural
Resources is undeterred and will sweep back on
Tuesday, July 26. Join the fun and reward in our annual
effort. Volunteers will meet at the Bay Club at 1:00 p.m.
to form teams and pinpoint locations. We will use the
“Cut and Paint” technique of removal and catch the
invader when it is most vulnerable during the warm, dry
season. Those who have a truck can be on the haul-away
crew—especially rewarding.
Speaking of rewards, all the volunteers (spouses, too) will
return to the Bay Club at 4:00 p.m. for complimentary
barbecue and social time. Please sign up at either the Bay
or Beach Club so that the Committee can plan accurately
for food and fun. You don’t want to miss it! Bring along
a lopper or pruning saw and gloves and your truck if you
like. Everyone join in, get some exercise and socialize
with a great group.

Chief Ed Wilkerson’s Safety Tips
Outdoor Burn Ban in Effect
As of Friday, July
1, outdoor burning
within the boundaries of Port Ludlow
Fire & Rescue is not
allowed. Outdoor
burning is burning
of household yard
waste, such as leaves,
grass, brush and other
yard trimmings. The
burn ban also applies to burning to clear land of trees,
stumps, shrubbery or other natural vegetation. It does not,
however, apply to recreational fires, such as fires for pleasure, religious, ceremonial, cooking, warmth or similar
purposes unless further banned by extreme conditions. Recreational fires are outdoor burning of charcoal or
firewood, but not debris or rubbish, where the fuel is
contained in an outdoor fireplace, barbecue grill or
barbecue pit. The burn ban will remain in place through
the month of September and may be extended depending
on weather conditions. To see current outdoor burning
status, visit our website at www.plfr.org. Fourth of July Cautions
Fourth of July fireworks cause numerous fires and more
than 10,000 burns and other injuries every year. Injuries
include burns and the loss of fingers, limbs, vision or
hearing. Most injuries leave permanent scarring, result
in millions of dollars in medical and legal expenses, and
cause untold suffering, often to persons younger than 20
years old. Even sparklers pose dangers for children. They
reach temperatures of 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit at the tip
and may cause serious burns to hands and eyes.
Careless handling of fireworks also can cause fires in dry
brush and grass and destroy or damage homes. This year Port
Ludlow Fire & Rescue (PLFR) asks you to exercise good
safety practices as you celebrate the founding of our nation. Olympic Peninsula

Art from Recycled
and Found Objects
Sylvia White, a basket maker who uses recycled and
industrial materials, will be the guest speaker at the Port
Ludlow Artists’ League meeting on Wednesday, July
20, 1:00 p.m., in the Olympic Room at The Inn At Port
Ludlow. A no-host luncheon in the Inn’s Sun Room at
11:30 a.m. will precede the meeting. Lunch selections
may be made from a limited menu of soup, salad and/or
sandwich. Reservations must be made by Thursday, July
14 to Barbara Adams at 437-2680 or l
[email protected].
Sylvia White’s free-form vessels and wall hangings
have been seen at the Port Townsend Gallery, Jefferson
County Library and the Northwinds Arts Center. Her
baskets made with non-traditional materials have helped
people view recycled materials in a different way. “I
have lived in countries where absolutely nothing useful is
thrown away. I think that experience led me to experiment
with materials that most people see as junk,” says White.
In some of her newer works, sensuously shaped natural
materials, like driftwood, are combined with contrasting
materials such as shiny metals, computer parts and other
industrial materials.
White has been a guest instructor, demonstrating her techniques to fiber arts guilds across the U.S. Her pieces have
been accepted and shown in dozens of juried shows including
one of the most prestigious, the international Beyond
Basketry show which culminated in a full-color book.
Those interested in seeing Sylvia White weave her recycled and found objects into works of art are invited to the
meeting and/or luncheon. If you have questions or need
more information, contact President Wanda Mawhinney
at 437-9081 or e-mail [email protected].

these cards so you can make your own at home and have

a.m. to carpool to Sequim. Maps will be provided for
the drivers. If you’d like to participate or have any

Port Ludlow Village Council
Village Council Report
by Beverly Browne, Editor/Reporter
President Tom Stone called the June 2 meeting of the Port
Ludlow Village Council (PLVC) to order at 3:00 p.m. in
the Bay Club. Other Council members present were Laury
Hunt, Pete Leenhouts, Larry Nobles, Tony Simpson,
Don Thompson, Pat Traci and Elizabeth Von Zonneveld.
Absent were Jim Boyer, Ned Luce, Shane Seaman and
Art Zoloth. Acting Secretary Pat Traci declared a quorum.
The agenda was adopted as written. The minutes from the
previous meeting were approved with amendments.
School of Woodworking Highlight:
Guest Speaker Tim Lawson, Executive Director of the
Port Townsend School of Woodworking, described the
school, founded in 2007, and its goals. The school is a
non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation located at Fort Worden
State Park. The school offers a full range of workshops
on cabinet and furniture making and is a training center
for historic preservation. Its mission is to preserve the
skills and standards of traditional woodworking, to restore
skills that are being lost, to create jobs, and to solve the
quality control problems that frequently occur in attempts
at historic restoration. Among its other functions, the
woodworking school provides veterans with skills that lead
to meaningful employment.
Lawson offered the restored Fort Worden 5,000 sq ft
motor pool Building 365 as an example of the product of
students at the School of Woodworking. The School has
received a major grant to provide classes in woodworking.
Local resources include construction companies and
lumberyards. It uses its resources to provide experiential
training for restoration of local buildings. Some students
have gone on to establish restoration companies in other
locations.
Lawson described the student body as being 35 percent
novice, 20 percent intermediate and 30 percent advanced
woodworkers. The School of Woodworking is home to
the only women’s woodworking program in the country.
This program teaches women basic skills, including
working with both large and small hand and power tools.
He said women have traveled as far as 3,000 miles to
attend the class. The school also has a class in Native
American mask-making, a youth program offered in
conjunction with 4-H.

Council Treasurer and Committee Reports
Treasurer Report: Treasurer Don Thompson reported
that the itemized invoice for $15,265.68, submitted by
the legal firm of Powers and Therrien for the IMQ\Pope
Writ of Certiori would be paid promptly. The bill included
intervention cost in Kitsap Superior Court in the amount
of $10,979.43 and the appeal of the intervention decision in the amount of $4,286.25. The payment brings the
account to zero and it will be closed.
The IMQ Mitigation account has a net balance of
$7,694.32. Donations for the mitigation efforts from
November 17, 2010 included a carry-over from the 2008
fundraising of $779.53 and funds donated subsequently
by residents in the amount of $10,319.70. Expenses,
including legal fees to Richard Shattuck were $3,406.91.
Signed letters were sent to Brian Belmont, Mike Morgan
and Diane Ridgley thanking them for their help in the
collection of the donations. The financial report was
approved by the Council.
IMQ Mitigation Committee: The Iron Mountain
Quarry Mitigation Committee will have no further news
on mitigation efforts until the County issues a new
determination.
Trails: The Trails Committee has installed a picnic table
on the Timberton Loop.
Festival By The Bay Planning: Discussion centered on
the type of display the PLVC booth should contain. There
will be an extra fee of $30 for electricity per day. If an
continued on next page
Port Ludlow VoicePage 21
PLVC Report continued from previous page
interactive display is desired, someone must develop it.
Tony Simpson offered to provide a television that could
be used for viewing the display. Tom Stone suggested
that the Council confer with Jack McKay regarding a
combined display with the PLVC website.
Friday Market: Port Ludlow Associates (PLA) and the
Chamber of Commerce have ordered picnic tables to
be installed in the Friday Market area. The tables are to
be used by shoppers as a place to stop and snack. Laury
Hunt, Larry Scott and Tom Stone will put the tables
together. The Friday Market will be represented in the
Farm Guide to markets next year.
By-Laws: The Ludlow Maintenance Commission (LMC)
and the South Bay Community Association (SBCA) have
expressed concern about changes in representation on
the Board which would be reduced from 12 members to
9 and contain non-voting representation from PLA and
the Chamber. Both believe that the Council should have
geographical representation, which should be proportional
to number of households. The Council voted to table the
issue until the next meeting.
Insurance Committee: Randall Shelley, Chair, reported
on the policies for General Liability and Directors and
Officers Liability (D and O) Insurance. General Liability
Insurance covers all other wrongful acts such as the
trails volunteers creating a hazardous condition on the
trails. D and O insurance covers officers for liability they
may incur for wrongful acts performed in the course and
scope of their activity.
The premium for the D and O Insurance was due in one
business day, giving the Council little time to approve
and mail the payment. To solve this problem in the future,
Shelley strongly recommended that a resolution be passed
that, if in the future the premium is not more than 20
percent more than the last premium, and the Insurance
Committee recommended it, the Treasurer could write a
premium check without a new vote of the PLVC Board.
The Council passed the motion.
The Council no longer carries a policy for Festival. It
does need to consider the problems of naming the Coast
Guard as “additional named insureds” for the 5 MPH
sign outside the Marina, the different starting dates for
the two remaining insurance policies, and the timing of
premium quotes. Shelley said the latter generally comes
in “around” two weeks before the termination date of the
existing insurance policy. Because the PLVC Board has
to approve these large expenditures when there may not
be a scheduled meeting in that two-week period, a time
crunch is created. He is working to solve the problem and
is awaiting the insurance premium quote for the General
Liability policy that must be renewed by June 26.
There was also discussion about a letter to be sent to
Washington State Commissioner of Public Lands Peter
Goldmark regarding transfer of Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) lands to private ownership. Discussion
focused on whether statements in the letter affected insurance coverage. Shelley said, and Hunt concurred, that
statements making a prediction increase liability risk.
The Council decided to reword the portion of the letter
containing those statements. No decision could be made
about sending the letter as it was not before the Council.
Announcements
The next General Meeting of the PLVC is on Thursday,
July 7, 3:00 p.m. at the Beach Club. The Workshop
Meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, July 19, 3:00 p.m.
also at the Beach Club. Information about the PLVC and
Port Ludlow is available at www.plvc.org. The meeting
agenda is posted on the website a day or two in advance
of the meeting date. PLVC meets in the Bay Club on
even numbered months and in the Beach Club on odd
numbered months.

This year’s premium for LMC Directors and Officers
insurance coverage has increased by five percent. The
annual deductible increased from $5,000 to $7,500.
Jarred Mahoney has been hired by the LMC as a part-time
maintenance employee. He is scheduled for approximately

also provide coverage for other maintenance employees
when they are out due to vacation leave or illness.
A drainage easement across the LMC Greenbelt was
provisionally approved for Grace Christian Church at the
corner of Oak Bay Road and Osprey Drive, subject to
review by LMC’s attorney. Grace Christian Church has
agreed to pay the attorney’s fee for the review.
Based on the recommendations of the Long Range
Planning Committee, the Board is developing a strategic
plan to ensure the long-term sustainability of LMC assets.
The Board is soliciting bids from architectural consultants
on the Olympic Peninsula to evaluate the facilities,
determine their life expectancy and provide cost estimates
for correcting any deficiencies.

The next business meeting of the LMC Board of Trustees
was scheduled for Thursday, June 23 at 1:00 p.m.
Community Association Teamwork
by Teddy Clark, LMC President
Thinking back to the May 12 Ludlow Maintenance
Commission (LMC) Trustee and Committee Chairs
all-day orientation, I am amazed at the progress we had
made toward our goals for the year. I see members with
energy and dedication communicating to make informed
decisions for the benefit of our community association.
The Standing Committees are working hard on a variety of
issues that benefit our community and shared assets. These
often quiet people work for the greater good of our members
and make successful choices about our shared assets. They,
along with our dedicated General Manager and staff, keep our
community association vibrant and workable.
In addition, two Trustees also serve on each of our six
Standing Committees as well as our Elections Service
Committee. Each of the nine members of the Board of
Trustees serves on one, or in several cases, two of the
Standing Committees. This allows clear, concise communication to flow between the Committees, Committee
Chairs, the General Manager and the Trustees. The
ability to communicate effectively encourages teamwork
and good decision making on behalf of our community
association.
A recent example of teamwork is the renovation of the
42-year old outdoor pool. Thanks to the planning, foresight and combined efforts of the Operations and Finance
Committees working in conjunction with the General
Manager and the Board of Trustees over the years to
develop adequate reserve funding, the refurbished outdoor
pool work was completed without a special assessment
to our members. The Grand Opening celebration for the
members was planned by the Operations Committee and
supported by the Lot Owners Association (LOA). It was
a fitting culmination to months of long meetings and hard
work, plus it was also fun to share the success with the
members. The outdoor pool looks like new, enhances our
property value, and is a pleasure to many of us.
This summer, I’m looking forward to seeing members
at the Beach Club, at the LOA summer concerts and the
Festival By The Bay. As you are enjoying summer in Port
Ludlow, remember to thank the many people who help
make all of this possible. Come join in the fun. This is a
special place to live, filled with very special people.
Manager’s Report
by Brian Belmont, General Manager
The renovated outdoor pool opened on May 20 and it
looked fantastic. The 42-year old pool was in need of
a significant amount of work. The overall project cost
nearly $110,000 and was funded by Ludlow Maintenance
Commission (LMC) reserves. Without the reserve funds
this project would have required a special assessment and
cost our 1,090 property owners approximately $100 each.
The major outdoor pool repairs included:
• The removal and replacement of all pool tiles.
• The removal and replacement of all perimeter drain
grating.
• The removal and replacement of all water return
fixtures.
• Modifications to the main drain.
• The removal and replacement of three sets of wall
steps.
• Installation of double handrails on the main pool
entrance.
• Pressure testing of all inlet and outlet plumbing.
• Re-plastering of the entire pool.
On June 9, the LMC held a Grand Opening for the
outdoor pool at which photos before, after and during the
renovation were displayed. LMC President Teddy Clark
presided over the ceremonial ribbon cutting at the event
attended by approximately 90 members.
In spite of the large reserve expenditure for the pool,
LMC anticipates a year-end reserve balance of approximately $300,000. In order to fully measure the adequacy
of LMC reserves, the Association will conduct a reserve
study. LMC anticipates receiving the completed reserve
study by mid September at the latest. Having an updated
study will be extremely useful when preparing the 2012
Operating and Reserve budgets. Once completed, LMC
members will be provided a Reserve Study summary.
During the first week of June, the heat pump and indoor
furnace used to heat the two locker rooms was replaced.
This was also a reserve-funded project.
LMC has added three part-time employees to our staff.
Fran Bodman is working at the front desk as one of our
hostesses. Jarred Mahoney has been hired as a part-time
maintenance employee and Kathy Neill will help as a
backup bookkeeper. All three are doing a fine job and
are making positive contributions to the Beach Club
operation.

Photography at Beach Club Gallery Summer Beach Concert Barbecues
North Bay Art Group member Karen Pratt Riggen is
the featured artist in the Beach Club Gallery during
July, August and September with her one-woman photo
exhibit. You are welcome to meet Karen in person at the
reception Sunday, July 10, 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. at the Beach
Club. Refreshments will be served.
The title of the exhibit is “Here and There in Motion – Ici
et Là ... Ça Bouge.” These words express both the exhibit
photos and Karen herself. These photos were taken in
Washington, Hawaii, Vietnam and Paris. Karen lives half
the year in Port Ludlow and the other half in Paris, which
no doubt has given her a specific way of looking at the
world around her that she records with her all-abiding
passion for photography.
Her passion for detail makes it worthwhile to give her
work a good look. Finding, for example, a small head on
a big building is not necessarily obvious. Her sense of
humour brings moments to her photos you cannot forget.
There are unique photo-taking opportunities all around us
and as Karen says, “I always have a camera with me, even
when stepping out to get the mail or to go shopping. One
never knows what photo opportunity will be out there
waiting for me.”
The North Bay Lot Owners Association (NBLOA) will
again sponsor two Beach Concerts on Thursday, July 21
and on Wednesday, August 3 from 5:00 to 8:00 p.m.
There will be live music and gourmet hot dogs with chips
and a soft drink for $5 per person. Bring your beach
blanket, chairs and any other food or beverage you would
like. These events are terrific opportunities to connect
with your neighbors and enjoy the beauty of your Beach
Club view. For further information, contact Bryan Diehl
at 437-0602.
q
Much of her work has been exhibited previously and is
out in books that you can see at the exhibit. The photos
are available for stock, as well as for business and private
acquisition.
Contact Penny Sanzaro at 437-7970 or Sally Pendergast
at 437-4001 for further information about the North Bay
Art Group. You can contact Karen at 437-0370 or

South Bay Community Association
by Janet Force, South Bay Editor
South Bay Community Association (SBCA) President
Dave Armitage called the monthly Board meeting to order
on Friday, June 3, 9:33 a.m. Directors Howard Koester,
Pat Traci and Sharon Walker were present.
Mike Morgan and Linda Colasurdo of the Bay Club staff,
Recording Secretary Mea Graham and 12 SBCA members
were also in attendance.
After a quorum was determined, a motion to approve the
May 6 minutes was moved, seconded and passed (MSP)
(all ayes). It was MSP to approve the agenda as amended
(all ayes). It was MSP to approve the Financial Report for
April (all ayes). Then the motion to approve the
2012 budget was MSP (all ayes). The financial highlights
were postponed until the return of Secretary-Treasurer
Chris Whitehurst.
Four other motions were MSP: To accept the SBCA
Facilities Planning Committee Charter as amended
(all ayes); that the Board approve a Renovation Fund
Account (all ayes); That the Board approve funding this
Renovation Account with $15,000 from the General Fund

s
Finance: Pat Traci presented recommendations regarding
the Reserve and Renovation Funds and SBCA bank
accounts. A discussion ensued. It appears House Bill 1309
(regarding reserve funds for homeowner associations)
will have significant ramifications regarding restrictions
on items for which such a fund may be used. The
Committee will review and advise. To ensure that bids for
the financial audit are consistent, a Request for Proposal
will be drawn up and submitted to the Board. Much work
has been done documenting financial processes for the
Committee’s charter, with more under way.
Facilities and Long Range Planning: Bruce Schmitz
advised that the Committee is assessing costs and benefits
of installing a heat pump for the pool. A new proposed
charter for the scope of work was reviewed. A lengthy
discussion ensued. As Facilities Planning and Long
Range Planning each have a separate purview (facility
maintenance versus future improvements, respectively)
they will be separate committees, but will work closely
together and with the Finance Committee. Amendments
to the charter included a change of name to Facilities
Planning Committee. As a “Standing Committee of the
Board” it will advise only and have between five and
seven members (Mike Morgan, two Board members and
community members appointed by the Board). Contracts
of more than $2,500 will be sent to the Board with
recommendations, contracts less than that amount will be
negotiated by Morgan.
Operations: Morgan noted membership remained
constant (518 members and 31 associates.) Eight properties are delinquent one quarter or more, six liens have
been filed on four properties; the total amount due is
$6,307. Morgan is awaiting paperwork showing SBCA
has been included as an Additional Insured on the Red
Cross Mass-Care Facility contract. Negotiations for the
Pacific Northwest Golfing Association’s rental of the
Club continue. Five candidates are running for four positions on the Board: Tom Claudson, Richard Grieves, Sue

Oemichen, Steve Shanklin and Ken Thomas. The pool
temperature has remained constant at 84 to 85 degrees
for over a month. Savings from renegotiation of the copy
machine and pest control contracts are approximately
$2,400 per year. A new flag and spa cover have been
purchased. Patio furniture is out for the season. Trees
have been trimmed and gutters cleaned and prepped for
caulking; some repairs will be made this summer. Carpets
are cleaned. The Gazebo roof bids will be forwarded
to Schmitz. The trim is being painted and the pond is
being drained and cleaned. Power washing of the tennis
courts is complete. As Morgan is now a member of
the Community Association Institute, he was asked to
and will forward their informational e-mails to Board
members.
Other Meeting Highlights: An audience member
requested, and Colasurdo will send, information regarding
HB-1309 to the Village Homeowner Association
Presidents. The 2012 Budget was discussed at length. It
was noted that the Bay Club has less than one percent
of homeowners in arrears on dues. Action regarding
donating money to the Port Ludlow Festival By The Bay
was tabled until July. The Annual Meeting is scheduled
for Wednesday, July 20 at 3:00 p.m. A social will follow.
All members are encouraged to attend.
South Bay Members’ Social
Friday, July 8 will be our last social before the annual
election of SBCA Board members on Wednesday, July 20
at 3:00 p.m. Plan to attend and meet the nominees for the
2011-2012 Board of Directors who may be in attendance.
The hosted bar will be open from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. with
appetizers provided by you, the attendees. Hope for good
weather so we may gather out of doors with our South
Bay neighbors. See you there! s

Free Spirits Year-End Report
The Free Spirits held its Annual Meeting and
Appreciation Day Tuesday, June 7. Members enjoyed
pizza, salad and their favorite beverage and were thanked
for all their volunteer hours given to make each event a
success. This year’s Co-Presidents, Sherry Robinson and
Marilyn Hampton, thanked the Board for their contribution to the planning and implementation of the year’s
activities. Robinson reviewed briefly the events held this
year and Tom Stone gave a financial report covering the
group’s revenue and expenditures over the past year.
A brief preview of the activities for next year included
the Independence Day Celebration, a Halloween Party in
October, traditional Holiday Dinner in December, dinner
and dancing in February, and a spring event in April.
The annual Appreciation Day Pizza Party in early June
concludes the 2011-2012 year. Details on each event will
be in the Voice and in mailings sent to the membership.
The 2011-2012 Free Spirits Board was introduced with
the addition of three new members: Karen Hashagen,
Dan Holtz and Dean Mattoni. The Board still needs a
Volunteer Coordinator to work with Sandra Rooks and a
Co-President to work with Sherry Robinson. The more
members involved, the easier the task! Anyone interested
in either position is asked to call Sherry at 437-7948 or
e-mail [email protected].
The Board expressed thanks to the members for their
support and encouraged them to stay involved. Begin
by making sure you have a place at the table for the
Monday, July 4 event. Check the Bay Club for openings
and join in for an afternoon of food, fun and friends!

Music on the Green
Celebrates Americana
by Barbara Wagner-Jauregg, Contributing Writer
The Arts Council’s 14th Annual Music on the Green
(MOG) on Sunday, July 24 welcomes back Mary Wiles,
the sweetheart of Northwest country music, who stole the
show when here in summer 2004. (Who can forget Mike
Porter leading the Village People’s Y.M.C.A.?) Whether a
grandstand show, featured concert appearance, or on the
outdoor stage at the Bay Club, Mary and her band put on
one fantastic show! They have performed locally at the
likes of the Puyallup Fair and at the famous Bluebird Cafe
in Nashville.
Mary’s shows include country blues, bluegrass, historic
and contemporary country, heartland and folk—the music
of Americana. (See her photo on back cover.)
Along with Mary Wiles the Arts Council welcomes
Deadwood Revival in its premiere performance at our
Music on the Green. Winning fame in old-time/bluegrass
circles as well as the jam band scene, this Northwest
foursome is known for its clever arrangements, kick-ass
harmonies and extended jams.
With a rich sound best described as “Old-time String
Band meets Acoustic Grateful Dead,” Deadwood Revival
breathes new life into a variety of old-time fiddle, folk,
bluegrass, rock and of course a few Grateful Dead tunes.
As one reviewer writes, “You can tell from the first note
that they are crowd-pleasers—fun, adventurous and yet
true to their roots.” (See their photo on back cover.)
Nathanael Mullins, 18, of Port Angeles opens “Celebrate
Americana” at noon where he takes the stage with a jazz
performance on keyboard. A student of piano for 13 years,
he also played trumpet for 8 years with the Northwinds
Homeschool band and this year with the Olympic
Dixielanders, a Peninsula-based youth band.
An attendee at Camp
Heebie Jeebies jazz camp
for three years, Nathanael

his own compositions

he plans to minor in music

Spend a wonderful summer afternoon with neighbors and
friends and “Celebrate Americana” with the kind of music
that got its start in the mountains, prairies and small towns
of America. Enjoy tasty food and cool beverages—Dos
Okies returns with Oklahoma-style barbecued chicken
or pulled pork sandwiches, barbecued piglets, beans and
slaw. The Arts Council’s license to sell beer and wine
doesn’t extend to personal alcohol carried onto the Bay
Club property. Your cooperation will be appreciated. Soda
and water will also be available.
Bay Club doors open at noon to give you time to stake out
your favorite spot. Since all seating is on the lawn, please
bring blankets or low-backed chairs to sit on the grass. And of
course be prepared with sunscreen, a big hat and something to
keep you warm as the sun shifts during the afternoon.
Keep in mind that summer truly arrives in Port Ludlow
sometime in the middle of July. The fourth Sunday in
July for years has been one of the busiest weekends in the
Puget Sound region for event planners scheduling annual
outdoor events—and the Arts Council has been doing
it for the past 13 years, creating what has become Port
Ludlow’s premiere summer event. In case of inclement
weather arrangements have been made to accommodate
the show indoors.

National Endowment for the Arts present six National
Heritage honorees and recognized American treasures in
an historic celebration. Plus, join with faculty and festival
participants for the ever popular evening jam sessions,
often lasting deep into the night! These occur most nights
during the week of the Festival.
So save the date Sunday, July 24, and plan to be on hand
for a Port Ludlow tradition that brings all of us together
for a memorable afternoon of barbecue, beverages and
good music. Don’t forget your chairs, blankets, sunscreen
and a hat! See you there!
The concerts are held at McCurdy Pavilion, the World
War I-era balloon hangar converted into a concert hall on
the grounds of Fort Worden State Park. For information

Once every summer Port
Ludlow residents and their
guests enjoy a potluck
picnic before attending the

The Festival is a 15-minute
drive from Port Ludlow.
We’ll gather around noon at reserved tables under the
trees by the little salmon brook after selecting seats in the
126-year-old barn. Your choices are comfortable padded
pews or a cozy hay bale either on the main floor or in the
loft. Reserved seating for those needing special assistance
is available. Of course, you may choose to listen to the
music outdoors while seated on the lawn as the concert is
broadcast over loudspeakers.
Bring enough picnic fare to serve yourself, your guests
and some to share. Bring lawn chairs or blankets for extra
seating, and don’t forget your dishes and utensils.
We will enjoy a discounted group rate of $25 per ticket.
To take advantage of this, make your check payable to
the Olympic Music Festival for the number of tickets
you wish to purchase. Leave your check at the Bay Club,
attention Bev Rothenborg, or mail to me at 20 North

Summer Events at Bloedel Reserve
Bloedel Reserve, an award-winning public garden on
Bainbridge Island, announces its July concert series.
There will be eight performances in two beautiful
venues—the Mansion at the Visitor Center and the more
casual Sheep Sheds in the Meadow. Both venues are
outdoors—under a tent at the Mansion and in the Meadow
where the Bloedels kept sheep. All events are open to the
public and include concerts of chamber music, blues and
a puppet theater. Two concerts for children will be held.
Refreshments are served. The series closes on Sunday,
July 31 with a bluegrass mini-fest featuring three bands.
Jazz Port Townsend
Founded in 1977, Jazz Port Townsend is one of the

Developer News
by Diana Smeland, President, Port Ludlow Associates
The weatherman says summer is coming, but it is stuck
in traffic. It still feels warmer than spring. I have been
playing golf in short sleeves instead of long sleeves and
a jacket. Can you believe that the longest day of the year
has come and gone?
People Changes: Hopefully by the time the Voice is
printed we will have two new managers at the corporate
office. We have been interviewing great candidates for
Marketing Manager and Controller. If you get a chance,
stop by and say hello.
Public Relations: The magazine Where to Retire just
listed the top 50 communities. They also included the
Hall of Fame, a small group of established neighborhoods
previously recognized by the magazine. Port Ludlow is in
the Hall of Fame! Keep your eye out for the July/August
magazine. Have you been thinking about my question,
“If you were looking to increase potential buyers to Port
Ludlow, what would you do?”
Experience Port Ludlow Package: Are you referring
your friends to visit/live in Port Ludlow? The Inn At Port
Ludlow has a great package for guests to experience our
beautiful community. Starting at $129, based on availability, a guest can stay for one night; receive a round of
golf, an hour of kayak rental and a community tour by
John L Scott Real Estate. What are you waiting for? Call
up your friends. They may stay for the night or maybe for
a lifetime. Wouldn’t it be fun to see them every day?!
News: To stay informed stop at one of our outlets, The
Inn, Marina, Golf Course or John L. Scott office and pick
up a calendar for the month.
If you have questions or comments, my direct line is

This is what summer is like: L-O-N-G days and easy
living, gorgeous boats on glistening water, golfing at five
and getting in 18 holes, and the freshest produce and fish
on planet earth. We are so fortunate to live here!
There’s a lot happening at The Inn this month; please
come! We have a new menu—try the French toast for
breakfast! You’ll love the Wild King Salmon Burger for
lunch. We’re keeping the Sunday Burger and Monday Fish
and Chips, so when you don’t feel like cooking, join us!
Thursday, July 14 is Bastille Day, with guests Alexis and
Juliet Pouillon of Domaine Pouillon in for our monthly
dinner. To secure your place, call us at 437-7412. “What
is Bastille Day,” you say? Check out the following:
There are more than 50 U.S. cities that conduct annual
celebrations of this French holiday: Milwaukee’s four-day
street festival begins with a “storming of the Bastille,” a
43-foot replica of the Eiffel Tower; Philadelphia’s Bastille
Day involves Marie Antoinette throwing locally manufactured pastries at the Parisian militia, as well as a re-enactment of the storming of the Bastille; Seattle’s celebration,
held at Seattle Center, involves performances, picnics, wine
and shopping. Who can go wrong with this combination?
Of course, we have our own Independence Day—and
there will be many reasons to celebrate as we bring out
the Red, White and Blue, and share the holiday that
defines so much of American history.
And for a girl from Kansas City, this month’s cooking
class is like the American DNA. It’s Thursday, July
21—An All American BBQ - the Secrets of Low and
Slow. I did fulfill one of my bucket list items and served
as a BBQ judge in Houston a few years ago. In KC it’s
all about the sauce and in Texas it’s all about the meat!
(Do you know BBQ judges cleanse the palate with
saltine crackers and pickles?) Chef Dan will show you
the way—please do call 437-7412 for reservations so we
know how many places to set.

PLWGA July Events
by Vito M. DeSantis PGA Director of Golf
by Bonnie Vahcic, PLWGA Captain
Don’t forget that Port Ludlow Golf Club (PLGC) is in
the midst of our new Member Race Program and biggest
membership drive ever! As an existing PLGC member
you could earn up to $1,000 off next year’s golf dues. You
should have received an information packet laying out
the Race. If for some reason you have not received this
information please stop by the Golf Shop to get it!
As I am writing this article the Port Ludlow Women’s
Golf Association (PLWGA) June Captain’s Cup match
play tournament has just begun. Each of our lady golfers
is matched up to play a one-on-one competition. The
winner is determined by the golfer who remains unbeaten
at the end of a series of approximately five matches. The
winner will be announced in August.
The tournament season kicked off in June with the
start of the President’s Cup, Captain’s Cup and the
Annual Mr. and Mrs. Tournament. There will be two
major tournaments in July: Pacific Northwest Golf
Association (PNGA) Women’s Amateur and Mid Amateur
Championship and the Washington State Women’s Public
Links Championship. We also continue with all of our
normal Port Ludlow Golf Association play days and daily
games.
The month of July is very busy for our Golf Course, as
well as our lady golfers. Besides our regular Tuesday
play we have a number of special events. The first one
is the Rally for the Cure on Thursday, July 7. This golf
charity event raises money for breast cancer research and
is always a fun event. After nine holes of inspiring and
creative golf we are treated to a luncheon and raffle. The
field fills up pretty quickly so reserve your spot early.
Those interested in volunteering for the PNGA Women’s
Amateur should let the Golf Shop know. We could
certainly use your help with on-course scores, markers,
timekeepers and forecaddies.
July will also bring our first Annual Port Ludlow Kids Day!
This event is open to anyone at least 5 years of age. Cost
is just $25 and each kid will walk away with a golf club
of his or her very own! For more information please visit
our website or call the Golf Shop at 437-0272. If you miss
the Kids Day on Saturday, July 23, we will be hosting a
Junior Golf Program starting on Monday, August 15. For
more information please contact the Golf Shop.
PLGC is still hosting our ever-popular Saturday morning
Golf Clinics. The Clinics are very affordable and more
importantly are a fun way to learn some new tricks
and tips from your P.G.A. Professionals. Sign up by
contacting the Golf Shop about availability and don’t
forget to bring a friend!

The second two weeks in July feature two outside
events for women golfers that will take place at Port
Ludlow. The first one, scheduled for Monday-Thursday,
July 11-14, is the Pacific Northwest Golf Association’s
(PNGA) Women’s Amateur and Mid-Amateur. Some
of the best golfers in the Pacific Northwest will be
competing in this tournament. I hope that some of our
local women golfers will sign up for this exciting event.
The next major event follows right on the heels of the
PNGA tournament during the third week in July. It is the
Washington State Women’s Public Links Championship
and will begin Monday, July 18 and finish up on
Wednesday, July 20. This is a three-day medal play tournament. It is open to all Washington State women golfers
who have participated in at least one Public Links event
over the past year. We hope to have a good representation
of Port Ludlow golfers at this event.
Beery Memorial Golf Tournament
The Mike Beery Memorial Children’s Fund (MBMCF)

Rainier on June 10, 2005. The MBMCF strives to help
less fortunate Jefferson and Clallam County children and
their families in their time of need.

The newly-organized Port Townsend Kala Point Travel

The trip cost is $45 for transportation plus $30 for the
