CUB SCOUTS lined up for a nractice run before the local 1975 Cub Scout
Olympics held last Saturday at the high school track field.
By ELEANORA FEDENK CR 5-2774
It is happy swimtime at
Mission, Tiger and Panther Lakes.
Don Bennett, environmental
health specialist for the
Bremerton-Kitsap County Health
Department, has rated these lakes
as "Class AA" and that is absolute
tops.
Mr. Bennett has a quarterly
schedule taking samples from
each of the lakes and streams.
Tests are made for coliform
bacteria, dissolved oxygen,
temperature, PH, color, turbidity
and sometimes the nitrate and
phosphate content. That helps
gather information as to runoff
into lakes and streams of lawn
fertilizer used in abundance. That
has been a going question adding
to the coliform count. There was
concern the past two years as to
the rising coliform count in Tiger
Lake. That count has dropped for
the current extraordinary rating.
Part of the problem during that
time was the dry summer, plus an
influx of seagulls and ducks
joining the fun of the waterski
buffs.
Tahuya River was rated "'Class
A," excellent. Union River tests
were "Class B," or good. Both
ratings are safe for swimming or
general recreation. When the
rating of any water drops below
these standards, a close check is
made as to the why and
wherefore. Often this has been
found to be from streams picking
up contamination flowing
through farm areas or populated
areas and then emptying into
large bodies of water.
Mr. Bennett will have another
report later in the summer as tests
are being made daily. He reports
that the lake results are the
cleanest in many years.
Monitoring the lakes more often,
giving closer attention to existing
and new sewage disposal systems
along the shores, and people
concern have been a great help in
keeping the water safe.
The next few weeks will move
all too slowly for Mr. and Mrs.
Edward Schneckloth as their son
Randy and his wife plan a visit
about Aug. i. Randy went into
the Air Force right after
graduation from North Mason
High in ! 970. His last visit home
was in December of 1972.
He has been stationed in Crete
for four years, working in
communications. Upon his
marriage he took extended leave
to stay on in Crete to be with his
wife, Bernadine, a sergeant in the
Air Force. Both have completed
their service hitch, and have plans
to make their home in this area
while attending Olympic College.
They toured Spain for three
weeks before returning to the
States in June and are now
visiting with her folks at
Westbrook, Maine. A long
distance call from Maine gave
news of other visits before their
arrival in Belfair. Their route will
take them to Alabama to visit
Randy's sister, Lora Williams, an
aunt, Mrs. Dick Smith in Kansas,
and relatives in Colorado.
The Martin Tates, formerly of
Bear Creek, are happily settled in
their new mobile home quarters
at Cinnebar. They are enjoying
the busy routine of changing
closets around and having close
family members across the
backyard for daily chats or to
borrow the proverbial cup of
sugar.
The Tares sent a "hello and
come see us" greeting by way of
Ted and Betty Howerton to their
North Mason fellow members of
the VFW, Friends of the Library,
Twanoh Grange and Young at
Heart Club. Their address is Box
17, Cinnebar, WA 98533. They
can be called on the family
extension phone 985-2277.
