On September 11, 2016, at 11:30 a.m., 278 participants took off to the burst of an air horn in the 3rd Annual Wander to Wander 1K – a .62 mile “wander or sprint” from Johnny’s Donuts to Wander Brewery during Bellingham Beer Week. This event is the first of its kind in a town renowned for endurance races. All of the $5,466 proceeds benefit an equally unique nonprofit: the What-com Dispute Resolution Center and their mission to provide and promote collaborative and constructive approaches to conflict through mediation, training, facilitation, and community education. Derek Thornton of Bellingham took first place, crossing the finish line with the fastest time yet at 2 minutes and 48 seconds. Derek had a commanding lead on racers trailing him at a wide range of paces – from lightning speed to a relaxed wander. Individuals and teams celebrated their feat with a pint of beer or root beer at the Wander Brew Hall, proudly wearing finisher medals. Racers came together in a ceremony to bestow Derek with a single, 23” tall golden letter “K” trophy. A smaller golden “K” was presented to the race’s “Final Wanderers,” Michelle and Ryder Kronlund of Everson. Colleen Kuehl, Co-owner of Wander Brewing stated, “The services provided by the WDRC help strengthen our local community. The WDRC is unique in how they approach dispute resolution and we are excited to have partnered with them for the 3rd An-nual Wander to Wander 1K. The event is an excellent tool for both fundraising and also strengthening awareness of the WDRC.” The WDRC would like to thank Wander Brewing, Chazzzzam Signs & Graphics, Overhead Door, Pacific Surveying & Engineering, Johnny’s Donuts, and Fairhaven Runners for sponsoring and hosting this successful event, and to all of the returning and new par-ticipants this year. WDRC Executive Director, Moonwater stated, “This event was a fantastic way for families and friends to par-ticipate in a Bellingham Beer week and raise money for such a good cause at the same time. We were thrilled with the turnout look forward to this event growing even more next year!” Pictures can be found at: www.facebook.com/whatcomdrc/photos/?tab=album&album_id=10153967701671270 For individuals who missed the Wander to Wander 1K, there are many upcoming events to support the WDRC. Join the Center in celebration at the 14th Annual Peace Builder Awards Gala, November 18th 2016 at 5:30, at the Bellingham Technical College Settlemyer Hall.

COVER STORY
Jim Haupt: He brings fresh ideas to enhance the atmosphere at Hotel Bellwether
Born locally in Mt. Vernon, Washington, Jim Haupt has earned his position as general manager of Bellingham’s premiere ho-tel, The Hotel Bellwether. After his graduation from WSU Ho-tel School of Business and Economics, he worked at the Madi-son Hotel in Seattle…as a bellman. He gradually moved up to Front Office Manager and from there his career in the hotel business took off.
In his positions as Assistant General Manager and then General Manager of the Elkhorn Resort at Sun Valley, Idaho he honed his skills and eventually was approached by Andrew Harper’s Hideaway Report,” a connoisseur’s guide to peaceful and un-spoiled places.” His job was to build a program of marketing opportunities to the best of the recommended hotels. The publication was a high end report that reviewed (incognito) luxurious boutique hotels in the world. Located in Sun Valley, Idaho, the publication gave Jim the opportunity to review and experience over 250 hotel operations. When the company was sold, it had 50 employees that assisted 18,000 readers with recommendations and hotel arrangements.
In 2010, Haupt moved to Vancouver, BC and spent a year and a half with the Kiwi Hotel Collection which was launching a Visa First Signature Card Hotel program. While in BC, he met with the owner and General Partner of the Hotel Bellwether, An-dre Moinar, who had been an Andrew Harper subscriber and he wanted to make the Hotel Bellwether a Hideaway caliber property. Eventually, he hired Jim Haupt as General Manager
of his hotel and today the Bellwether is recognized as the #1 Luxury Northwest Hotel by NBC King 5, Evening Magazine.
Built in 2000, the Hotel Bellwether has become a landmark for luxury comfort, fabulous views, wonderful fresh North-west Cuisine and today some great entertainment. The lighthouse Bar & Grill headed by Chef Michael Grogan is focused on hearty Northwest and local bounty. They fea-ture music 5 times a week and 6 times a week during sum-mer months. Sunday and Tuesday features Jazz on the Bay, Wednesday is singer/guitar evening and there is grand piano music on Friday and Saturday. During the summer months their Blues, Brews and BBQ is a great success with the guests and local community.
Within the Bellwether complex there is a wide range of ser-vices such as numerous restaurants, a salon, two spas that offer a wide range of massage options, wellness services and float therapy chambers. Hotel Bellwether can accommodate boats up to 150 feet on their 220-foot center pile dock and is floatplane accessible. Jim enjoys sailing and has his own 35’ Hunter docked nearby. The Hotel offers to arrange sailboat and powerboat charters for guests and many have given this service great reviews.

COVER STORY (continued)
The Hotel has had famous guests such as John Legend, Arlo Guthrie, Pat Boone, Natalie Cole and many others through the years. The luxury suites are really impressive and offer stun-ning views and a variety of amenities. They have finished a room renovation in the spring on all of their Premier Suites and Executive Waterfront rooms. The hotel rooms will be com-pletely renovated within the next few months.
Jim Haupt’s vision for the hotel is to “create outstanding guest experiences.” Over 40% of their business comes from return-ing guests. He and his staff have created a warm, friendly cul-ture that results in high guest satisfaction. Jim says of his staff: “I evaluate all key positions within the hotel. Discovering the individual who has an innate desire to serve others is the key.” He hires many WWU students and graduates so he is utilizing locals and offering them outstanding training and opportuni-ties.
The meetings and events facilities at the hotel are booming
with weddings, meetings and private parties along with char-ity events and local business functions. With 34 full time staff along with part time, the staff grows to about 80 staff to serve guests and visitors.
Holiday events are already planned with a Halloween Dance with the Atlantics on October 29th. There is a Christmas Tree Festival in December where Holiday Trees are decorated by lo-cal businesses. Funds are raised for a foster home called Skoo-kum Kids. The hotel is lit up with the trees (usually about 18) spread around the public areas. The events held during the holidays fill the hotel’s available meeting and banquet rooms.
Jim enjoys skiing, sailing, golf, bird hunting and hiking and he has a great setting for these activities. He is dedicated to his position as General Manager of the Hotel Bellwether and what he likes best about his job is “the ability to be creative and develop packages, music and food events that allow people to enjoy the best of the Hotel Bellwether…on the bay!”
Weddings at The Hotel Bellwether
Having a wedding with the Extraordinary Northwest waterfront view that the hotel offers is a spectacular setting for an event where couples make lifelong memories. From spa bridal showers to golf outings, unique banquet and ballrooms and champagne receptions on a chartered yacht through the San Juan Islands, the hotel partners with local experts and professionals to ensure a memorable wedding week.
Wedding menus include cocktail hour selections, plated dinners and buffets, as well as bar selections and wine lists. The Hotel Bellwether offers venues both large and small to celebrate nuptials. From waterfront to ballroom, one only has to choose from the variety of options.

I recently took a return visit to a place my husband and I loved: Monterey, California. There, we explored the history that is so rich and interesti ng. We visited The Custom House which is the oldest building in California and the Royal Presidio Chapel built in 1770 by Spanish missionaries. There is history, great food, shopping, Fisherman’s Wharf and the beauti ful view of Monterey Bay. This is a great place to visit.
The Conversati ons We Never Had is a great book to read and gets one to thinking about your own family’s history. We all have tales to tell told to us by grandparents, aunts and uncles. Pick up the book as a holiday gift or treat yourself to a good read.

BOOKS
Family History
The Conversations We Never Had is a new memoir / histori-cal fiction novel by Jeffrey H. Konis. In The Conversations We Never Had, Jeffrey explores the life of his grandmother, a Holocaust survivor, and highlights the importance of family history.
The Conversations We Never Had tells the tale of a grandson who had taken his grandmother for granted, but didn’t real-ize it until it was too late. The story is based on Jeffrey’s own relationship with his grandmother.
“My father remembers nothing about his real parents. They were dead by the time he was nine. Olga, his mother’s younger sister, not only survived the Holocaust, but was able to find my father at his hiding place – a farm in Poland – and later brought him to America to raise as her own. In all that time, he never asked her any questions about his parents,” says Jeffrey. “Years later, I moved in with Olga for a period of time, but I allowed history to repeat itself – a classic mis-take – and failed to ask her the same questions my father avoided. Olga has been gone for more than twenty years, along with everything she could have told me. I am left with a sense of guilt and profound regret, wishing so badly that I could go back and have a second chance to get to know her better and learn more about my family from the only person in the world who knew them and remembered them.”
The Conversations We Never Had is a chronicle of Jeffrey’s time spent with his Grandma “Ola” and an imagining of the stories she might have shared had he only took the time to ask the questions. It is a heartwarming story that will leave you eager to spend time with your family and learn more about them before it’s too late.
“Jeffrey H. Konis won my heart from the very first page and had my eyes glued to the pages throughout the entire nar-rative…The Conversations We Never Had is a book that will warm your heart and lead you toward the pursuit of love and gratitude for those who are part of your journey to yourself. Beautiful and inspiring, this book is highly recommended!” – 5 Stars, Readers Favorite To learn more or to read an excerpt from the book, go to http://bookpublicityservices.com/conversations-never-had-jeffrey-konis/
What we Remember
Each of us carries the histories of our families.Deep within our memories are stories and events that have guided us.We often wish we had asked more, questioned more or been more curious.As we look back, we cry for the lost histories and incidents that could have defined usAre we conditioned to only live in the present?Are we turned into our present selves and uninterested in how we got here?We are so much a product of those who came before us… yet we have let go of all the events, tears, hopes, dreams and ac-complishments of those who paved our way.Let us dig deep…deep into the ancestral past and recover that which time washed awayAnd maybe what came before can influence what will come in the future.

TRAVEL BUG
A trip to Historic Monterey
We recently made a return trip to a beautiful place that my husband and I both loved…Monterey. Located on the Central Coast of California, the area is a treasure trove of tales about the missions, the Gold Rush, the adobes, the Mexican-Ameri-can war, the tribes of 1st Americans and the rich Spanish influ-ence in architecture and churches.
Twenty-five years ago we sailed our 38 ft. cutter into Monterey Bay. The problem was there was dense fog and we did not have radar so we motored around a buoy until the fog lifted. It was a magnificent sight, when like a curtain, the fog lifted and the city of Monterey spread out before us. During our stay there, we lived aboard our sailboat in Moss Landing and en-joyed all that the area had to offer. We were there a year work-ing to raise money to buy a small hospital in Salinas. We were never able to achieve our goal, but we had such a wonderful time, it has provided us with a wealth of great memories.
This September, we returned and this time we spent a great deal of time retracing the course of the area’s history from the Spanish to the Mexicans and then finally to U.S. statehood. The Colton House was the place where California became a state. In 1849 California’s Constitutional Convention met there to establish California’s first constitution. The constitu-tion gave property rights to women and it forbid slavery. It is now the Colton House Museum and a place to see the actual rooms where these historic events took place.
The Old Jail is also a landmark not far from The Colton House Museum. It was constructed in 1854 by the Americans and served as Monterey’s county jail for more than 100 years. No one ever escaped from its thick granite walls during that time. Vigilante justice reigned during the “wild west” and some did perish before their trial.
The Royal Presidio Chapel was founded by Fr. Junipera Serra on June 3, 1770 and was moved to Carmel a year later. It is something not to be missed if you enjoy traveling back through time. The church remained as a Royal Chapel for soldiers guarding the new Spanish Presidio of Monterey. It is the first stone building and cathedral in the state of California. Father Serra is buried under the altar of the church and the cemetery holds the remains of the indigenous people who worked the mission and the Spanish padres who were in charge.
The Presidio of Monterey Museum is important for its long history. Set up by the Spanish to protect the region and the missions and then used by the Mexicans, Americans and native
Americans, it ultimately became a Military station from 1902 until today. The museum has strong exhibits of the Presidio as a training base.
The Custom House is the oldest government building in Cali-fornia. It was used by the Mexican government to collect du-ties imposed on foreign merchants from 1822-1846. You can see the goods of trading sea captains and the commerce then known as the “hide and tallow” trade.
There are so many other great historic places to see there as The Steinbeck House, The Stevenson House and Museum, Fisherman’s Wharf and Cannery Row. If you love history or if you are a curious person, you will fall in love with Historic Monterey!

Meet 40,000-year-old baby mammoth Lyuba at the Royal BC Museum
A 40,000-year-old baby woolly mammoth, the best-pre-served specimen in existence, will take centre stage when the Mammoths: Giants of the Ice Age feature exhibiti on opens June 3 at the Royal BC Museum.
Lyuba (pronounced Lee-OO-bah) is the world’s most com-plete mammoth. Her remarkable discovery in the frozen soil of the Arcti c in 2007 by a Siberian reindeer herder made im-mediate internati onal headlines.
This will be the fi rst opportunity to the see the baby mam-moth in Canada. Lyuba is on loan from the Shemanovskiy Yamal-Nenets District Museum and Exhibiti on Complex in northern Siberia, Russia.
“We are honoured that the Shemanovsky Museum-Exhibi-ti on Complex is loaning Lyuba to the Royal BC Museum,” CEO Jack Lohman says. “Seeing this unbelievable treasure in per-son will allow Briti sh Columbians, and our visitors to discover how science has brought this baby mammoth’s story to life. This is an example of our conti nued collaborati on with cul-tural insti tuti ons across the globe to further interest in sci-ence, culture and history.”
Scienti sts were able to retrace Lyu-ba’s short life and determine that she was about 30 days old when she suf-focated aft er being trapped in mud along the banks of a river. Samples of Lyuba’s soft ti ssue and tusks suggest she was healthy at the ti me of her death.
A ti me-lapse showing the installa-ti on of Lyuba will be featured on the Royal BC Museum’s YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/user/RoyalBC-Museum) by May 31st.
Mammoths: Giants of the Ice Age is presented with lead marketi ng part-ner Tourism Victoria. The exhibiti on is in partnership with The Field Mu-seum.
About the Royal BC MuseumThe Royal BC Museum explores the province’s human history and natural history, advances new knowledge and understand-ing of BC, and provides a dynamic forum for discussion and a place for refl ecti on. The museum and archives celebrate cul-ture and history, telling the stories of BC in ways that enlight-en, sti mulate and inspire. Looking to the future, the Royal BC Museum will be a refreshed, modern museum, extending its reach far beyond Victoria as a world-class cultural venue and repository of digital treasures.
