The battle to support music education in Coupeville continues.

In the wake of the school district cutting its secondary program during the last round of budget discussions, a group of locals has come to together in the hope of launching a booster club.

The plan is to meet the first Wednesday of each month, with a meeting set for Nov. 6 at the Coupeville Library.

We’re back!

And it’s not even October yet…

The outdoor burn ban in Island County goes away at 8 AM this Friday, Sept. 20, thanks to “an increase in fuel moisture levels and a return to more typical seasonal weather patterns.”

Translation: Burn, baby, burn!!!

With all reasonable care, of course, and within the sanctioned guidelines.

I mean, as my nephews often remind me in the voice of someone speaking to a small child or an escaped mental patient, “This isn’t the ’80s, Uncle David.

“You can’t spray your dad’s carpet cleaning chemicals on the burn pile anymore, even if it did make pretty colors in the night sky.”

Lil’ punks, trying to save the environment and whatnot.

Their grandpa wouldn’t recognize this nanny state of ours.

Now where are my good burnin’ sweatpants? You know, the ones with only a few scorch marks on them…

O brother, can you spare a frig?

The Coupeville High School Class of 2025 is “in dire need of a fridge/freezer combo” for use in concessions after one of their two units unexpectedly bit the dust.

A bunch of food had to be chucked, incurring a loss for the seniors, and the frig is too old to have parts be easily replaced.

While the frig in the CHS gym is a recent donation and is steadily working away, the one which was lost is the one at the stadium, right as football and soccer seasons get underway.

With concession sales providing a major benefit for each year’s senior class, parents are scrambling to find a replacement and are hopeful someone out there may have one they would be willing to donate.

The Man comes around.

Lincoln Kelley is returning to the Coupeville School District after a stint in Oak Harbor and will be the new Career and Technical Education (CTE) teacher.

He replaces Chad Felgar, who resigned to accept a position in Mukilteo.

The hire was announced Friday by Coupeville High School Principal Geoff Kappes and will be official once approved by the school board.

“I am very excited to confirm Lincoln will be joining the CMHS team,” Kappes said. “I firmly believe he will do great things in this position.”

Kelley, whose sons Brandon and Lathom both graduated from CHS, previously worked in the maintenance department and coached track and field for Coupeville.

While working as an Automotive Instructor at OHHS, Lincoln was honored as Washington state’s 2023 SkillsUSA Adviser of the Year.
