The senior troupe of Irene’s School of Dance does a final dress rehearsal of the ‘snow forest’ scene for the production of the Nutcracker, which will occur Nov. 26 and 27 at Bremerton High School Performing Arts Center.

From whimsical Christmas puppets to barbershop choirs, these arts events usher in a festive holiday season BY JJ SWANSON JSWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Temperatures are dropping, and the early birds have already begun stringing up their twinkling lights. With Thanksgiving and the December holidays just around the corner, the Kitsap County art scene is growing into its full force. Rehearsals go around the clock for shows that expect to dazzle and even melt the heart of the biggest Grinch. For those who can’t wait, take note of events which begin as early as the day after Thanksgiving.

NUTCRACKER Nothing says holidays like going to see the Nutcracker with the fam-

ily. This year Bremerton High School will be hosting three dance troupes on separate dates. Right after Thanksgiving, on Nov. 26 and 27, the Dance Arts Theatre and Irene’s School of Dance will take the stage for their 16th annual performance. Last week, the dancers from Irene’s performed a preview of the show at Brownsville bazaar. “The excitement started growing then, having the costumes on, the dancers all had looks like ‘wow, it’s really here,” said Irene Miller, founder of the school. Dancers of all ages from kindergarten to senior company have been rehearsing for the event since October. In addition to normal classes, there are Saturday and Sunday Nutcracker

rehearsals which run for the whole afternoon. “We rehearse different parts on different days so the young ones don’t have to be there the whole time, but it’s still a good time commitment,” said Miller. Miller explained that there have been a couple minor injuries, like twisted ankles and sprains, during rehearsals. Also, the flu has taken out some of her dancers. But the show will go on. Miller said that audiences this year can look forward to Act II variations and a snow scene which should be “truly visually stunning,” as well as comedic numbers from Mother Ginger and the buffoons.

Logan Kerr, a fifth grader at View Ridge Elementary School, prefers working on the computer to a paper and pencil method. In class, he is able to use the computer program Read 180, that helps students with reading comprehension and spelling. Logan doesn’t have a computer at home but he knows what he would be doing if he did. “It broke the other day,” Logan said of his home computer. “If I did [have one,] I’d be doing this.” The Bremerton School District has many programs via the use of computers — and iPods — to help struggling students with reading. Because technology has become an everyday tool in the lives of many children, these programs aren’t difficult to use. For those who may not be introduced to the

technology at home, the classroom is a place where they can learn while getting help in areas of reading that may be difficult for them. “Students in our school, some have access to technology,” said Korene Calderwood, Logan’s teacher at View Ridge. “We do have families that don’t have computers. We’re trying to bridge that gap so they don’t have a technology deficit.” For Logan, 10, it’s about making spelling interesting and gaining the motivation to want to do better. “It’s more fun on the computer because you can type it in. It would take you longer on paper,” he said last week. Not only is Read 180 fun for students like Logan, but because it keeps the scores of the different activities in a point system, students feel like SEE iLEARN, A8

Sharing the aloha spirit Silverdale hula group has a love for the dance and sharing it with others BY KRISTIN OKINAKA KOKINAKA@CENTRALKITSAPREPORTER.COM

Cindy Holland, of Silverdale, had been on several trips to Hawaii so she was familiar with hula dancing but she never thought she would be the one dancing. As a piano and violin teacher, she decided she needed something more active in contrast to her sedentary job.

She found hula. And, she’s found that the welcoming and warm attitude of others in her halau — hula school — is uplifting. The dancing itself can also make them feel a little closer to the tropical islands.

“It takes us away from the grey nine months of winter,” Holland, 51, said. The Micronesian/ Polynseian Halau is a Silverdale hula group that Holland has been a part of for about a year. The instructor, Che Keeling, has been teaching hula for more than 30 years. Although there are other halaus that practice for hula competitions, Keeling’s school is about expressing their love for hula and sharing it with others. They are practicing for several holiday performances including next month in Seattle at a retirement home and at Navy Exchange on Naval Base SEE ALOHA, A16

Bringing Dumbledore’s Army to Silverdale Central Kitsap High School students celebrate all things Harry Potter year. They revived a club that ended a few years ago after the seniors that organized it graduated. Johnston and Balk said the club is a way to bring students who share a love for Harry Potter together. The club meets every Fridays to discuss the beloved boy-wizard series by British author J.K. Rowling or to participate in activities related to it. Last Friday, it was wizard’s chess — a lifesize version of chess where club members acted as chess pieces and played the board game on a larger scale. “We just want to keep our love of Harry Potter alive — and just have fun with it,� said Johnston, 18.

IN OUR OPINION

Tuesday’s Senate passage of the “Vow to Hire Heroes Act” is a step in the right direction to cover the many implied promises of enlistment and fighting in service of the nation’s goals and security. The act seeks to remedy the unemployment rate among returning veterans as 11.5 percent, which is about equal to the general population. One in 10 of American veterans returning from the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq is currently without work. The proximity of the act’s passage in the Senate by a 95-0 vote, which occurred on Nov. 10, shows the current political value of the growing stateside veteran population as hundreds of thousands of service members transition into the life of a civilian during the continued down economy. With nearly 1 million out of work, the veteran vote will loom large on the federal and state levels in the 2012 election. For the first time in decades vets will hold the power of a common need and solid numbers – all in relation to veterans benefits which are constantly threatened as “entitlement programs.” This act, which was signed into law Monday, provides more civilian job searching training for exiting service members, smoothes federal job applications, increases G.I. Bill funding for all veterans and gives tax credits up to $5,600 for hiring returning veterans that have been out of work for more than six months – $9,600 if they are disabled. Where the act falls short and fails to achieve at the same level American service members do everyday on the job as the strongarm of American capitalism is in one area, the act mostly covers post 9/11 veterans and does less for the millions of previous eras. Murray touts the bill as coming from two August Recess “listening sessions” with Washington state veterans, most of which are pre 9/11 veterans from four previous wars. With the inclusion of job and training assistance for veterans of earlier eras Murray has begun to bridge the gap from political patriotism to the reality of U.S. government’s responsibility to all of its war veterans since the turn of the 20th century.

I believe “Life Studies” are more important. Why? I was fortunate to attend a new “progressive”, (experimental) school, and school finally made sense. The “Life Studies” classes were made up of a male class and a female class. This class taught how to cook, clean, sew, shop, child care and budget.

relationships is also highly important. Those who enter recovery can lead to more education and maybe stable employment. Empowerment, self-advocacy, hope and resiliency are Washington state goals for the mentally ill. More than 30,000 veterans reside in Kitsap County. Certainly, a veterans court will be helpful. Our population in 2000 was 231,969 residents. Can we find a way to help veterans and non-veterans as we have the fondest wishes for both groups? And let’s not forget a supportive apartment or dorm complex for both groups too.

There are several different activities students can choose from within Read 180 — all have to be completed but they can decide in which order they will complete them. Last Thursday Logan took a spelling test where he listened through headphones and typed out words that the program told him to. There are also other options to read non-fiction passages and respond to questions afterward. By working on computers, there is the near-instant response for students to get feedback on their strengths and weaknesses when it comes to reading. “They take more responsibility for their work,� said Calderwood adding that getting the timely feedback engages her students. Other than View Ridge, Read 180 is used at West Hills STEM Academy in the district, said Patty Glaser, district spokeswoman. The cost of the program is about $25,000 per school, she said. System 44, a similar program to Read 180, is available for students at Mountain View Middle School and Bremerton High School. Another program where elementary school students are taking more responsibility in their own education is with the school district’s iLearn Project. Students use an iPod touch to record themselves reading passages aloud and then they play and listen

They identify specific words they may have skipped or repeated and parts of the passage they did not read fluidly. On the iPod, they are able to do research such as look up definitions to new words or to hear the correct pronunciation. At the end, the students record a retelling or summary of the passage in their own words without looking at the passage to determine if they comprehended what they read. Each student’s

recordings are turned into voice memos that are transferred to a central computer for the teachers to have access to. Although this program doesn’t have a teacher up front telling students exactly what to do, students are responding well to it. “We’re no longer in a world where kids want to sit and listen to a teacher,� said Scott Wisenburg, a teacher at View Ridge who helped the district pilot the program last school year.

He added that the children are comfortable using the iPods because they want to be using the technology that they see their parents and other adults use all the time. The iLearn Project, in its second school year, is modeled after a program in the Escondido Union School District in California, said Wisenburg. T eachers at Escondido began their iRead program in 2006 collecting data about fluency rates, according to the program website. Wisenburg and a few other teachers in the Bremerton School District wanted to bring a similar program to Bremerton schools after attending a conference in Seattle. Wisenburg said the iLearn Project helps stu-

dents with self-assessments when it comes to reading fluency. When his fourth grade students know it is the time of the school day designated for iLearn, they put their earbuds in place and begin recording without hesitation. They learn how to manage the assignments on their own with Wisenburg available for help if a question arises. For some students, the iLearn Project can help them with better pronunciation of words. For others, like Jordan BrophyPalsson, it is helping him become a quicker reader. “It’s really fun,� 9-yearold Jordan said. “You can get faster and faster.� Melanie Enriquez, 9, said that when she first started using the iPod to record

herself reading aloud at the beginning of the school year, she would make about 30 mistakes and now her count is at about nine or 10 mistakes. She said usually her mistakes are mispronouncing words. “They are very engaged by using this technology,� said Sandra GessnerCrabtree, principal at View Ridge. “It gives feedback faster often times than a paper to be graded.� A program that students find fun is something many teachers always want to figure out. “I didn’t know what to do, now it’s easy,� said Melanie of navigating an iPod for the iLearn Project. “It’s fun.�

PUBLIC NOTICE TO WAVE BROADBAND CUSTOMERS In January, Wave's video and equipment rates will be adjusted to offset a small portion of the increased cost of delivering the services we provide. This is due to the ever-increasing programming fees incurred from television networks, and the cost of software and service associated with our equipment. We work diligently to minimize these costs on behalf of our customers. Unfortunately, the cable television networks have once again dramatically increased their fees. We will absorb much of the increase, and minimize the price adjustments to our products and services. Some fees and taxes may also be adjusted at this time. Further details, including money-saving bundle and new product options, will be included in your January bill statement. Thank you for choosing Wave Broadband.

to the director, the youngest dancers as sugar angels always get the biggest crowd response. “It’s a great way to kick off the holiday season, sets the mood for the whole holiday,� said Miller. Tickets for Irene’s School of Dance performances are available at the school or at the Kitsap Mall information booth. Or, call (360) 6924395. Shows are Nov. 26, 27, Dec. 2, 3 and 4 at Bremerton High School Performing Arts Center Tickets for the Peninsula Dance Theatre performances can be purchased on their website at www.peninsuladancetheatre.org or by calling (360) 377-6214.

SILVERDALE TREE LIGHTING Kitsap’s version of Rockefeller Center is right in Old Town Silverdale. The tallest Christmas tree on the Kitsap Peninsula will light up on Nov. 26 with help from Silverdale Kiwanis, who will be serving up hot cider, cookies, and hot chocolate to warm up the crowds. Holiday performances by the Kitsap Chordsmen and Jackson Park and Emerald Heights Elementary choirs will provide the backdrop for the spectacle that is a Kitsap tradition. “Music is the biggest thing that gets people into the spirit of Christmas. From religion to cartoons, whatever your interest is in the holiday, it’s all there in the music,� said Jon Powless, a Kitsap Chordsman. Powless said that his favorite Christmas song is ‘Oh Holy Night,’ a song known for causing more than a few glistening eyes within the crowd. For the kids, Chordsmen director Mike Menefee has composed a Christmas cartoon medley. The mix includes ditties from Frosty the Snowman, Charlie Brown, and the Grinch. Powless said that the cartoon numbers go well with the Chordmen’s signature barbershop sound. “But even the traditional songs don’t sound quite the same,� said Powless. “We bring our own barbershop feel to them.� Bundle up for the tree lighting event, another great way to kick off the holiday season. Info: Tree lighting Nov. 26 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. in

FAMED HOLIDAY PUPPETS ON DISPLAY The Valentinetti Puppet Museum, home to 1,200 puppets, will have special holiday puppet display including 40 new puppets, such as Uncle Mistletoe, Aunt Holly, and the Snow Queen. Famous like their maker, the puppets are the originals crafted by puppet master Aurora Valentinetti for Frederick and Nelson department store in Seattle. From the 1950s through the 70s, Uncle Mistletoe and Aunt Holly became famous faces in the city as street windows hosted live performances from Christmas to New Years. “It was an extremely strenuous existence for those performers,� said Stanley Hess, museum curator. In previous years the museum featured historic German nutcrackers during the holidays, but this year Hess wanted to do something to bring the holiday spirit alive for the children. “A lot of the art of puppetry is found less in the physical these days. I wouldn’t say that puppetry is dying. It’s morphing into different kinds of things. For example, children are finding the joy of puppets again in movies like Toy Story or Finding Nemo. CGI is closely linked to puppetry. Kids still have a deep love of the art,� said Hess. Hess and the gallery volunteers will be recreating Valentinetti’s intricate holiday showcases for a new generation of winter enthusiasts. The gallery will open their showcases to the public on Dec. 2. Info: Runs Dec. 12 through Jan. 14 at the Aurora Valentinetti Puppet Museum in Bremerton For more information visit www.ectandpuppets. org.

CLEAR CREEK NURSERY WINTER WONDERLAND & LIVE REINDEER SHOW The reindeer are flying in to Clear Creek Nursery. Prancer and Dancer, who are en route from Reardan, WA, arrived Friday. The live reindeer and Moses the camel are part of an annual winter wonderland spectacular hosted

Ed Bernhardt, owner of Reindeer Express, escorts Moses the camel to his new home at Clear Creek nursery in Silverdale. on the nursery grounds and shop. “When it’s all put together, it’s like Disneyland. The kids go crazy,� said Linda Johnson, nursery staff. Families enter the building, which during the normal year is a fresh produce and gourmet foods shop, but for the holiday months is transformed into an indoor wonderland forest. Dozens of trees, festooned in gold, white, red, green, and silver create a holiday maze. Handmade wreaths, holiday cookies, cheeses, and baubles abound. Then it begins to snow indoors. Johnson said that families sit in an open area of the shop. The lights are dimmed, darker and darker as the holiday music builds up to a crescendo and then all the trees are lit at once as a flurry of snow falls from the ceilings. “The room is filled with oohs and aahs. Some kids will put their toe into it gingerly, while go ‘Yahoo!’ and jump right in,� said

Johnson. Johnson explained that the snow is a quick melting synthetic used in Disney productions, making it easy to repeat the performance every hour. A professional crew comes in to install the snow system in the weeks leading up to the event. Outdoors, kids can sit in a big red sled with Prancer and Dancer at the helm. According to Johnson, the reindeer are known for being ‘tame as a dog’ and playful with the children, making for great photos. The winter wonderland snow show is free and open to the public beginning Nov. 25 and runs through Dec. 24 with hourly snow shows from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm, (Thursday-Sunday only)

house-making parties. Anne Thatcher has tables of gingerbread house material are spread out in two large rooms of a renovated barn. All the gingerbread is made on site in their kitchen from organic ingredients. Each house gets its own candy station so that there is ‘no squabbling.’ “The first event after Thanksgiving is often the most packed, partly because people have family in town for the holidays and this is something fun that every one can do,� said Thatcher. According to the gingerbread coordinator, brothers and sisters in their 70s rekindle some major holiday rivalry. “It’s as if they’re 10-yearolds again. They get so competitive, but it’s wonderful to see how creative people get. I’ve seen Tootsie Roll pops

bundled into fire wood logs, candy pounded into ponds. Someone actually created reindeer for the roof out of candy bits,� said Thatcher. Thatcher said that patrons take their masterpieces home and enjoy them for the rest of the holiday season, but warns parents to watch out for thieving sweet-tooths. “One mom had her gingerbread house displayed all through Christmas. When she went to take it down, she realized her son had been slowly eating away the whole back end of it through the season. There was barely anything left!� said Thatcher.

DUMBLEDORE CONTINUED FROM A3

made complete in July 2007, Johnston said she and Balk wanted a way to keep Harry Potter present in their lives even though there would be no new books or movies to look forward to. Many of the students in the club said they saw the last movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, part 2, at midnight when it was released. “I just like the stories — the whole world J.K. Rowling created. We’re just bringing it out to Silverdale,” said Balk, 17. The club’s activities have included taking part in tea leaf readings like the char-

acters in the story perform in their divination class as well as dividing the club’s members into houses, just as new students at Hogwarts — the school of witchcraft and wizardry that Harry Potter attends — participate in. The club plans to recreate other classes from the books as best as they can such as a potions class, said Johnston. The club also plans to have a Yule Ball, similar to the winter dance in the fourth book, and will hopefully fundraise money for charities through ticket sales, Johnston said. In addition, the group hopes to play — or recreate playing — quidditch, which is the ficticious sport involving throwing balls through rings while flying on broomsticks.

Most of the students in Dumbledore’s Army — ranging from grades 10 to 12 — said they like Harry Potter because they grew up reading the books and watching the movies. The series became a staple during their childhoods and they aren’t planning on out-growing it any time soon. At the club’s first meeting in September, at least 30 students joined in. Sophomore Breanna Barrick said the fantasy world of Harry Potter is an escape from the real world. The book series’ protagonist, a teen wizard, has “normal” teenage struggles that they can also relate to, Barrick, 15, said. For 17-year-old Geronimo Mirano, a senior in the

club, it’s about being part of a group that can relate to him. “I love Harry Potter,” he said. “All my Harry Potter references are understood here.” Not only are some students making frequent references to the magical world, but others, like Sullivan, make connections between Harry Potter’s world and her every day life. Sullivan, who is secretary of the club, said she remembers that the U.S. Constitution contains seven articles because Voldemort — the story’s villain — split his soul into seven parts. Although the students have other activities or sports they are involved in — for instance, Barrick dances ballet, tap and jazz and Jonhston fences and plays lacrosse — for one afternoon a week, their undivided attention is on Harry Potter. Johnston and Balk said they hope other students will continue organizing and running the club next school year after the two of them graduate. They don’t doubt it will be a problem. “Harry Potter has been a part of our childhood and we’re completely loyal to it,” said junior Holly Chan.

will ride up with us and do their thing, but our focus goes into the beginners,� said Kellar.

PAYING FOR SCHOOL

Central Kitsap ski school provides scholarships and equipment to students who need it. The Central Kitsap ski school held its annual Ski Swap, an event that helps kids gear up for the snowy season even if their families can’t afford it. Rows of tables lined with snowboards, bins filled with gloves, hats, goggles, and racks of insulated ski suits filled the Central Kitsap Junior High School gymnasium Nov. 19. Some the gear came from donations made by individual skiers and snowboarders who no longer need their equipment, others are sold at discount prices by ski equipment liquidators in Tacoma and Wenatchee. “We try to hook up kids that need this gear with people that don’t want theirs anymore, so they can do their thing safely and have fun,� said Dave Kellar, ski school director. Kitsap Sports and other local vendors are charged $5 a piece to sell their gear at the swap. They also give a portion of their sales back to the ski school to use as registration fee or transportation scholarships. According to Kellar, the ski school will give out about 20 scholarships this year to deserving students.

Once considered a luxury sport for privileged kids, Kellar wants to continue ski school’s mission of making the joy of winter sports possible for all.

SKI SCHOOL The Central Kitsap ski school was founded in 1969 by Hal Hoover, a former vice principal of Central Kitsap Junior High School. It now enrolls students from grades 5 to 12. While the majority of students come from Central Kitsap, Kellar reported that a good number of parents drive kids in from further north and south in the county. “We are district sponsored, like a football team, but all of our funding comes from enrollment fees. Still, we get to use district buses and use the district rights and responsibilities which makes it a lot less of a headache for us,� said Kellar. Kellar said that kids don’t usually misbehave on the eight trips the school makes up to Steven’s Pass, but when they do, “they have to answer to ski school and also to regular school discipline as well.� Once at Steven’s Pass,

Katelyn Daykin, an avid skier from Seabeck, looks at snowboards at the Central Kitsap Ski Swap. “But my mom won’t let me snowboard because she says it’s too dangerous,� Daykin said. the school partners with mountain instructors to get everyone off to the right start. “Adults don’t always think that they need lessons. That’s often why they learn to ski slower. They fight it. Kids get on the mountain and realize pretty quickly, ‘OK this is where I am’ and move their bodies,� said Kellar. By the end of the season, many of the beginners are on chair lifts and going on intermediate to advanced trails.

According to Kellar, the advanced courses include back country skiing techniques, learning how to shred, grind rails, and do tricks.

Night beach walk in Bremerton A night beach walk in Bremerton is planned for tonight and organized by People for Puget Sound. The walk will be from 8:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Lions Park for the community. Some of the lowest tides of the year occur during the nighttime through the winter, which is why the outing is planned for night. People are able to explore the beach and on-hand naturalists will help explorers spot creatures and plants. “It’s really exploration,� said Ann Butler, People for Puget Sound’s beach watcher and shoreline educator. “The nighttime is kind of

fun with the flashlights.� Butler said there is no registration necessary and the activity is appropriate for children with parents in tow. People are asked to bring their own boots and a good flashlight. The organized beach walks at low tide are scheduled every year and the dates depend on the tide. Butler said typically

in the summer months, the series occur during the day because that is when the tide is low then. There are other nighttime beach walks scheduled including on Dec. 22 at the Bainbridge Island ferry dock beach and on Jan. 19 at the beach walk at Kingston. More information on the beach walks is available at www.pugetsound.org.

As Kellar directed shoppers, he was approached by a young man and his father who were holding a yellow registration form. The father took Kellar to the side and asked about transportation scholarship opportunities, and Kellar assured him that they will find something for the boy. “With money the way it is these days, kids are really starting to need these scholarships to participate,� said Kellar. In addition to transportation scholarships, which cover fees for taking the bus to Steven’s Pass, there are partial fee scholarships, and opportunities for gear. Kitsap Sports gives a number of gear scholarships every year ranging from protective outerwear to actual boards. Anthony Hamblet is a former ski school student and current Kitsap Sports employee who believes that the ski swap is a valuable service for Kitsap skiers. “Five years ago, when I started, there was no way

I could have been involved if there was no ski swap,� said Hamblet. Ski school also provides their version of a “work-study� program. Kids can work the events and meetings, manning the cash box, set up, and break down. In exchange, the school helps fund their activities. Cheap gear also provides opportunities for adults. Dave Burmark and Denise Doering-Burmark left the gym with armfuls of skiing gear. This is their second year at the swap as they are just starting to get back into the sport. “You know, we’re starting again after years. Kids, jobs, money, that’s what kept us off the slopes,� said Burmark. They are planning a trip to Crystal Mountain this weekend to search out the perfect powder. Central Kitsap ski school has a mandatory meeting Dec. 6 for all members to prepare for the first trip out. Steven’s Pass ski patrol will come down to brief students on safety on the mountain and rules. Trips to the slopes will be Dec. 10, 17 and Jan. 7 and five Saturdays after that.

Supporting small business on Black Friday Bremerton’s small shops hope that the movement to ‘shop small’ rather than at corporate chains will boost the local economy BY JJ SWANSON JSAWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Bremerton shop owners hope to rebalance sales this holiday season. With Black Friday and Cyber Monday making up the biggest shopping weekend of the year, many mom and pop stores have been sidelined from shopping action. Black Friday weekend numbers are significant deciders of business figures at the close of the fiscal year. “This time of year, retailers are either making it or breaking it with the numbers they pull in over the weekend,” said Elaine Jones, business advisor for the Washington State University Small Business

Development Center. This year independent shop owners in Bremerton are joining forces for Small Business Saturday on Nov. 26. They hope that people will be more conscious with the way that they spend money, keeping money in the community rather than shipping it overseas. “If you spend one dollar in a small shop, 44 cents of it stays within the community. Compare that to spending one dollar at a box store where about seven cents stays and the rest goes who knows where. So you’re giving your neighbor a job by shopping here,” said Amy Jablonski, owner of Amy’s Decadent Chocolates in

Bremerton. Jablonski explained that small businesses are critical contributors to local programs. Organizations that would be considered too “smalltime” for a big corporation to notice have direct access to small business owners. “If the PTA from Crownhill Elementary went to Fred Meyer and asked them for support, they’d tell them ‘we have to talk to corporate.’ After that, they’d get lost in the paperwork. With me, they come in the store and say ‘Amy, this is what we need,’ and I can get it together for them within the week,” said Jablonski. The local elementary school PTA and the Bremerton High School marching band are just a few of the local organizations that benefit from small business owners like Jablonski. Jablonski donates 20

percent of sales on the first Saturday of every month to the marching band, gives supplies and treats to the Bremerton Foodline, and is committed to finding and training talented chocolatiers from low-income areas of the community. “We’re not billionaires, but we’re paying our bills, supporting local government, and helping schools. Warren Buffett is not going to be doing that for Bremerton,” said Jablonski. Deborah Hughes, owner of Two Sisters Fine Jewelry, explained that it’s been a tough year for business owners because banks are just not providing loans for small business growth. “I went to a bank where the loan officer took me aside and said, Deborah, we haven’t granted a loan like this for almost five years. I think that they’re just holding onto the money at this point,” said Hughes. Even though business has been “up and down” for Hughes, she said that they survive on a steady stream of regulars who drive in from all over the county for personalized

County blasts Navy for oversight Commissioners say Navy is ignoring local environmental compensation ment, released this fall, informed the public on the level of environmental harm expected during construction of a second explosive handling wharf. The report also made a statement on the in-lieu fees that the Navy planned to pay the county for the inevitable damage.

The in-lieu money in this case should be applied to restoring or cleaning up other habitats to compensate for the environmental

BY JJ SWANSON JSAWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

The Kitsap Board of County Commissioners sent a letter to the U.S. Navy expressing discontent over the lack of environmental spending in the county. In the Nov. 14 letter, the county took issue with the Navy’s continued failure to spend money on Kitsap County environmental projects. Instead, the BOCC said the Navy favored spending money to restore remote areas in Jefferson county. The supplement to the draft environmental state-

impacts expected from the new wharf’s construction. The county argued that the language of the supplemental EIS was too vague and that mitigation efforts were misappropriated. “We are astonished that there is no compensatory mitigation for Kitsap County locations in the Supplement. This critical project on our shoreline will negatively impact Kitsap County’s marine and nearshore environments. Yet, there is no compensatory mitigation,” stated the letter which was drafted by Patty Charnas, manager of environmental programs. Commissioners Charlotte Garrido, Robert Gelder, and Josh Brown also signed the letter. In their original comments

High School. The Central Kitsap School District started using the MAP test last school year with elementary students in kindergarten through second grade. This school year, the test will be given to kindergarten through sixth grade — about 30 classes. In addition, 12 classes at the secondary level are participating in the MAP test-

to the draft environmental statement on April 28, the county suggested Big Beef Creek Estuary Restoration as a “pre-capitalized site” for the Navy’s mitigation efforts. The estuary is located at the north end of Hood Canal, in Kitsap County. The Restoration project works to restore the habitat from damages caused by the construction of Seabeck Highway. Rebuilding the causeway in the area will restore natural tidal influence and sediment transport. The county letter revealed that, from verbal communications, the Navy decided that Big Beef Creek mitigation was “providing ‘too much’ mitigation in the face of the land and nearshore volumes of Dabob Bay.” Instead, the Navy supplement named the Dabob Natural Area and sites on Washington State park land. “Under Washington State Parks proposal, the Navy would partner with Washington State Parks to restore, enhance, and preserve marine and intertidal habitat on property in Hood

Canal,” wrote Sheila Murray, Navy external relations manager. However, the county argued that restoration of state parks is not a pressing enough environmental issue for Navy funds. And the Dabob Bay project is too far away from the explosives handling wharf to have any positive impact for Kitsap County. “Locating mitigation activities on publicly owned and conserved land does not meet the temporal imperative,” wrote the county. The County suggested in its letter that the Navy reconsider mitigation efforts in Port Gamble Bay and forestlands. They argued that the estuary in North Kitsap County are “at very high risk from development and present a clear and highly appropriate mitigation opportunity.” Murray said that the Navy has already evaluated Port Gamble Bay, but to this day finds it an unsuitable option. “The extent of the cleanup and required actions are unknown and could represent substantial liability until

they have been resolved. While this area may be a suitable candidate for mitigation in the future, the associated liabilities and unknowns do not support inclusion as a compensatory mitigation strategy,” said Murray. Charnas hopes that the county and Navy can come together if the Navy will keep an open line of communication which was missing when drafting the supplemental. “Our letter on the draft EIS specifically requested to keep us included in mitigation planning. When the supplement published these sites, it was a surprise to us. It would have been nice if [the Navy] had included the stakeholders, Kitsap County included, at how they arrived at these specific sites. We needed to be included in the discussion,” said Charnas. Murray said that the Navy is not considering an additional supplemental draft at this time. The Navy plans to address the county’s comments in the ‘response to comments section’ of their final statement.

ing this school year. But some teachers have concerns. “Nobody asked me if I wanted to participate in this testing,” said Wachtman. “It’s not useful to my students.”

The test is designed to reveal a student’s precise learning level, according to Northwest Evaluation Association, the nonprofit that has been developing and researching the test since 1977. Teachers are then able to change their curriculum or teaching style based on their students’ learning levels. Students in reading intervention classes are a grade or two behind their classmates in reading. Wachtman said that her goal is to make sure her students pass the High School Proficiency Exam, which is the state’s exit exam in reading and writing that must be passed in order to graduate high school. Wachtman said the results of her students’ MAP test are not helpful to her. When she and other teachers were trained to proctor the MAP test, she said she was told that individual information is only meaningful after a student has taken the test three times. Wendy Kassler, also an English teacher at Central Kitsap High School, said having her students take the MAP test does not meet the needs of her class either. She teaches a reading intervention class for 11th and 12th grade students that have failed the state HSPE exam. Kassler’s state-funded

class is structured around building Collection of Evidence, a state-approved alternate assessment allowed after a student fails the HSPE, which will be taken again in the spring. With Collection of Evidence, students create an extensive portfolio of reading and comprehension. If the work meets state requirements, students can graduate even if they do not pass the HSPE exam. “This was imposed on me,” said Kassler of the MAP test. “It doesn’t help with what I am supposed to be doing. It doesn’t help the students achieve their goal.” The goal Kassler refers to is for her students to complete their Collection of Evidence in the proper manner and to meet the deadlines. “There’s a lot of deadlines you can’t negotiate,” she said adding that the district’s deadline for submitting the collection is Dec. 13. “The MAP test has put them behind.” The estimated time to complete MAP for secondary students is 50 minutes, said Dan Dizon, the district’s executive director of curriculum and instruction. Wachtman said it took her students about an hour to complete the test. For the elementary students,

The Test MAP is taken electronically by students three times a year. The first test of this year was taken last month. Its purpose is to assess each students’ abilities individually. If a student answers a question incorrectly, the next item will be easier.

Deployed holiday lineup Sailors on the USS Stennis make the most of a holiday season away from loved ones BY JJ SWANSON JSWANSON@SOUNPUBLISHING,COM

Life aboard an aircraft carrier, sometimes called a “floating city” housing more than 5,000 crew members, is bustling. But during long deployments over the holiday season, sailors may feel alone even in such a crowd. Homesickness for families and holiday traditions is common during this time. So to fight off the winter blues, the Stennis Morale Wellness and Recreation office and ombudsmen are putting together a program of special events and coordinating care packages from home. “The command does not make the care pack-

ages. A carrier is so large that it would be impossible to make that many,” said Tina Debow, USS Stennis Ombudsman. However, Debow explained that families often provide more than enough goodies. Anything that can fit into a priority mail-sized box is fair game. The only prohibited items are f lammables, illegal substances and pornography. “I’m not at liberty to say how, but there is a screening process for each package,” said Debow. Ombudsmen try to make it easy for families to get these items to the right location in time for pick up for designated mail drops. The exact time of drops to the car-

rier is sensitive for the security of the crew, but families will receive an email instructing them of the proper ‘drop spot.’ Drop spot package collection is often handled by ombudsmen or volunteer wives at their homes. Families are cautioned against putting any package drop information on Facebook or other social media outlets. Holiday care package favorites include photos, hand-written letters, sentimental holiday movies, current magazines, candy, and home-made cookies. Debow warned that families should take note of the ship’s location when sending perishable items. “If it is freezing cold or burning hot where they’re going, you could have a problem. If you send chocolates, they would be a puddle by the time it

gets to your sailor,” said Debow. In previous years, the Girl Scouts of America have sent the Stennis mass shipments of Christmas cookies according to Lt. Cmdr. Cindy Fields, Stennis public affairs officer. “Those are always appreciated. We spread them around the ship the best we can,” said Fields. Also appreciated are letters and drawings made by elementary school students from around the country. The heartwarming thoughts reach sailors who may not have received a care package from home. Some wives get together and send special stockings for their husbands’ entire department. According to Debow, it can be a big task, but for some wives it is a great tradition. “Aircraft deployments are very different. Some

Shelter from the cold Kitsap Department of Emergency Management has activated cold weather shelters for those with no place to go. Bremerton Foodline, located across the street from Bremerton High School, will provide homeless citizens throughout Kitsap County a sheltered place to sleep when temperatures drop below zero. Doors open on Friday,

tonight at 6 p.m. and close at 7 a.m. Saturday and Sunday will have the same hours of operation. Guests will not be able to check in after 9p.m. According to Jason McMillan, severe weather shelter coordinator, the Foodline will provide

camping mats and blankets rather than beds. The maximum capacity is 25 guests. “We have an over full plan which involves opening another building on the fairgrounds or President’s Hall, depending on what’s available. But we’re lucky to get eight people a night,” said McMillan. The low numbers have the emergency folks concerned, especially when temperatures go to below

freezing. “We know they’re out there, the folks we’re targeting, but they say that they’re afraid to leave where they are because they might lose their stuff in the camp,” said McMillan. McMillan gets his information from the Bremer ton Rescue Mission and Salvation Army who are partnered with the department in outreach. He said that daily notices are sent out

communication between military personnel and their loved ones, especially in the holiday months when homesickness can be an issue for those deployed abroad. Stars and Stripes provides news specific to active-duty, deployed families and government contract workers. The paper brings a small taste of home to those abroad in Belgium,

wives do find that they prefer the longer ones out rather than three weeks in quick turn around because they have time to adjust to life and get into a routine,” said Tom Danaher, public affairs officer for Naval Base Kitsap. On board, there are

some special events for sailors looking to get into the holiday spirit. According to Fields, on Thanksgiving there will be a holiday feast accompanied by a small concert through Navy entertainment who is sending a professional violinist to the carrier operating in the Indian Ocean. There will also be holiday movies featured

to the media, food banks, libraries, the Salvation Army, and 211. But many of the homeless are either unaware or unable to take advantage. The shelters will continue to operate with the help of volunteers on

on the ship’s big screen. Movies for special events are sometimes shown in the hangar bay, picnicstyle with snacks. During Christmas, the Stennis will port and sailors will have the opportunity to call home by phone and take holiday tours in their port location. All tours are coordinated by Morale Wellness and Recreation who the crew calls “the fun boss.” On New Year’s Eve, there will be a party aboard the ship. “We don’t serve alcohol on the ship unless the ship has been at sea for a certain period without a port visit. Ships can request it if they’ve been without a visit for a number of days, but this year the Stennis won’t be getting alcohol,” said Fields. In addition to on board festivities, religious services for various beliefs are available through the Stennis chaplain. “We do what we can to make sure these guys have what they need,” said Fields.

The Shoreline Master Program is a land-use plan

which looks at appropriate shoreline uses, including development, public access, and protection of Kitsap County’s 230 miles of saltwater and freshwater shorelines. The plan was last updated ten years ago and is required by state law to bring any additional updates to the

plan by 2012. Nicole Floyd of the Department of Community Development will talk about sustainability and shorelineusage as the featured guest speaker. 2012 budget issues will feature guest speaker Becky Hasart, Director of financial services.

Two unrelated fatality collisions last week Two fatality collisions, one in Seabeck and the second in Kingston, occurred last week. A 39-year-old woman died in a car crash Nov. 10 while driving alone on the Seabeck Highway. No one else was injured. In a separate incident Nov. 11, a 23-year-old Bremerton man died while driving on Cliffside Road in Kingston. A 23-year-old passenger was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The Nov. 11 incident was reported at 11:44 a.m. and occurred in the 2500 block of Seabeck Highway. The woman was declared dead at the scene. She was driving in her 2001 Volvo south on Seabeck Highway at a “high

rate of speed,� according to sheriff ’s reports. The woman failed to negotiate a curve to the left and her car struck a guardrail and launched over the embankment. The Volvo rolled and struck a tree, impacting the car’s roof, before crashing on the ground. The woman was from Del Mar, Calif. The highway was closed to traffic until about 4 p.m. The Kingston crash was reported at 12:08 a.m. and the driver was declared dead at the scene. The Bremerton man was driving a 2004 BMW east on Cliffside Drive “at a high rate of speed� and veered off the road onto the south shoulder and struck a traffic sign after passing

through the intersection with Little Boston Road. The car’s momentum carred it over the embankment and down a ravine where it struck several trees and rolled. The car ended stopped on the driver’s side in heavy brush. The passenger, of Poulsbo, sustained serious head injuries and multiple fractures. He was listed as being in stable condition. Excessive speed is suspected to be a primary factor in the cause of the crash. Investigators believe that alcohol consumption maybe be a factor in the cause of the crash, but are waiting toxicology results as part of the autopsy.

Awareness,� she said. As Miss West Sound, Price receives more than $19,000 in scholarships and awards and the opportunity to compete for the Miss Washington title in 2012. Price is a senior and Honor Society president at North Kitsap High School. Her goals include graduating from the University of Washington with a degree in biochemistry and pursuing a career as an obstetrician/ gynecologist. Wall was Miss Kingston in 2007-08; her sister, Jordan, is the current Miss Kingston. Wall, 20, is a 2009 graduate of Kingston High School, where she was an honor student active in raising money for breast cancer research. She was co-captain of the Puget Sound Elite Girls Basketball Team in 2007 and played in the AAU Basketball Nationals in Orlando, Fla. in 2006.

She is a student at Olympic College and a pageant stylist at The Wedding Bell TrĂŠs Chic. Her career ambition is to earn a bachelor’s degree in fashion design and successfully launch a fashion line. Wall’s platform is “Kid University — Raising Leaders for Generations to Come.â€? “My family inspires me to aim high and keep learning,â€? she said in her pageant biography. “With this unconditional support, I have chosen to delve into the fashion industry, currently with styling and in the future with designing my own line, called Taylor Nicole Couture. I hope to inspire children to put forth their best effort and shoot for the stars, because nothing is impossible — the word itself says “I’m possible.â€?

Pedestrian killed in State Highway 3 collision north of Silverdale A 24-year-old man walked from the shoulder of State Highway 3 near Trigger Avenue onto the highway and was struck by an ambulance and died at the scene Monday, according to the Washington State Patrol. The incident occurred at about 3:15 p.m. about one mile north of Silverdale. The pedestrian had left his Ford Ranger, which came off Cyr Road and ended up down the hillside near

the highway, said Trooper Krista Hedstrom. The ambulance, driven by a 74-year-old Sequim man, was going south on the highway and the 24-year-old stepped into the road and was struck by the ambulance. The ambulance driver was not injured. Traffic was backed up on the southbound lanes of the highway for several hours. The cause of the collision is under investigation and there were no charges.

do,� said Hughes. In addition, Hughes explained that often prices on mall circulars are misleading. “People see 70 percent off at JC Penney’s and think that it’s a true sale. But the FTC fines Penney’s thousands of dollars every year for those advertisements, and they don’t care. They just pay the fines and move on because it still gets people in the stores. People assume that small stores won’t have as good prices, but that’s not the case if you look into it,� said Hughes. American Express

is at the helm of the national movement to shop small. They are providing owners 100 dollars worth of free Facebook ads to get the word out to their community, in-store signs to raise awareness on the street, and other online marketing tools like embeddable YouTube videos and newsletters. Though shop owners are using some of these online tools, the majority are just relying on good old word of mouth. “We reached almost 2,000 people at the holiday fair at Kitsap Pavilion. We talked to them about ‘shop small Saturday’ and got such a positive response, everyone promised to come out and support us, even

if it means just coming in to buy one truffle,� said Jablonski. But Jones is concerned that publicity might not translate into action. “Everyone thinks about it in theory, but then when it comes to shopping will they remember not to go to the mall?� asked Jones. Sma l l Business Saturday is Nov. 26, and the shop owners of Bremerton are counting on people to make good on their pledge. “Small business is the life blood of Bremerton. We will keep things going as long as people keep us going,� said Peggy Nord, owner of Simply Renewed Antiques.

The Bremerton school is one of six in the state recognized for improving kids’ achievement scores. Crownhill Elementary School in Bremerton will be awarded $10,000 by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction for greatly improving students’ math scores over the last three years. The office granted five other awards for Academic Achievement to Title 1, Part A schools in Washington state. Schools that received the award include Crownhill, Bemiss, Gildo Rey, Lewis and Clark, Parkwood, and Silver Lake Elementary schools. Title I, Part A schools are those that qualify for

financial assistance due to high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income families. “I’m very proud of these schools. The achievements they have made are shining examples to the rest of the state that all kids can learn, even with challenging circumstances,� said Randy Dorn, state superintendent of public instruction. Crownhill demonstrated marked success in the subject of mathematics, meeting or surpassing the Adequate Yearly Progress numbers

in all other subject cells in addition to math. According to the superintendent, some math strategies used at Crownhill will be adopted for use as models for other schools who need help with their scores. The award is a grant which Crownhill may use for teacher training in a new subject area or to further knowledge in current subjects, have team building or planning events, conduct independent research, or make changes to their curriculum. Dorn will continue to work with the state’s 295 school districts to ensure that other Title 1, Part A schools are following Crownhill’s good example.

Bremerton saw 3.85 inches of rainfall Tuesday, according to a release by the American Meteorological Society on Nov. 22. The strongest storm of the fall season moved rain and strong winds through Washington and Oregon states. Hurricanespeed gusts of nearly 100 mph were reported along the coast lines of both states. Inland, winds moved at slower rates, but overall rainfall totals increased significantly.

READING CONTINUED MAP is given two days in 30-minute increments. There is a 24-hour turn around in results from the MAP test. Dizon said teachers have the ability to share and work together to determine how to change their teaching — if needed — after seeing the results from MAP. They can also work with professional development specialists for assistance, he added. The cost of MAP is about $13 per student, said Dizon. The three-year $2.5 million grant that the district was awarded by the Department of Defense Education Activity will cover the cost of the MAP testing for both the elementary and secondary students participating in it. The grant also includes funding full-day kindergarten at two elementary schools and professional development for teachers. The DOD grant stipulates that students in grades kindergarten through 12 must benefit in literacy. The reading intervention teachers were selected because they have most of the aca-

demically needy students in the secondary schools, district officials said. Interventions at the elementary level occur in the regular classroom. MAP is aligned with Grade Level Expectations, the state’s reading standards. Although the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction will be switching to Common Core Standards, which will be piloted in the 2013-2014 school year, MAP will also be switching over to the new standards. MAP is aligned to the standards in every state that the test is given in, said Jean Fleming, director of marketing for Northwest Evaluation Association. Nearly 5 million students take the assessments — including other MAP test subjects other than reading — each year, according to the association. Tricia Sawyer, a first grade teacher at Green Mountain Elementary School, said she sees the test as being beneficial. “I’m in love with it,� she said. Sawyer said with MAP, she is able to determine her students’ individual strengths and weaknesses — whether it is phonic

awareness or mixing up punctuation — in a quick turn around. “With first graders, the beginning of the year is like herding cats,� Sawyer said adding that getting nextday results for her students that target certain areas is useful for her. For some of the primary students, the MAP test includes wearing headphones and listening to questions that they answer. Sawyer said that having the test be electronic also makes it more interesting to the children. Sawyer said she has always divided students into reading groups in her class and by using the results of MAP, she is able to make sure students of the same level are grouped together. “It really targets the needs of the kids,� said Franklyn Mackenzie, the district’s director of secondary teaching and learning, of the MAP testing. “It zeros in pretty quickly.� But for Kassler’s specific needs for her students, she doesn’t see how MAP is helpful. “It’s taken valuable time from my students,� she said. “In a regular English class I think it could be good.�

The Great Christmas Tree Debate: Real or Artificial? Going with a real tree for Christmas is being green — for some. “If you choose a real Christmas tree over an artificial one, count yourself among the ‘greener’ holiday makers,� said Jon Hoekstra, science director for The Nature Conservancy in Washington. According to the conservancy, 30 million trees are harvested annually for Christmas, out of the 350 to 500 million growing on tree farms across the country. As each year’s trees are harvested for sale, there are more than 10 times as many left standing. A tradition of buying real trees keeps farms in business — and their lands covered in forest. About 10 million artificial trees are purchased

each year and 90 percent are shipped to the U.S. from China. Artificial trees are not recyclable, according to the conservancy. Some tips to be even more “green� with a real tree is to use LED lights or to visit a cut-your-own tree farm instead of purchasing a pre-cut tree to ensure that the tree wasn’t shipped from outside of the state. Other suggestions from the conservancy include making garland out of popcorn or cranberries instead of using non-recyclable tinsel and collecting pine cones or shells to use as ornaments.

Annual festival takes a ‘bough’ BY ERIN JENNINGS Kitsap Week

DESSERT THEATER The sun will come out tomorrow at Silverdale Baptist Church’s 13th annual Christmas Dessert Theater. This year’s show is “Annie,” Dec. 2-4 and Dec. 8-11 at the church, 8278 State Route 303 NE, Bremerton. Tickets are $12 and include dessert. Info and tickets: www. silverdalebaptist.com.

ne year, her tree had a sleigh theme. Another year, it was decorated with vintage-looking dolls. This year’s theme is “Cooking with Claus” and features gingerbread. For each of the last 24 years, Sandra Carlson has decorated a Christmas tree, each with its own unique theme, for the Festival of Trees. So she wasn’t

about to miss the 25th and final event. “It’s very sad,” the retired librarian said. “I’ve known [about the finale] for almost a year. By the time this year’s festival comes around, most of my grieving will be done.” After this weekend’s festivities, Harrison Medical Center Foundation is bowing out of the annual fundraiser where decorated trees are auctioned off to raise money for the foun-

dation. Foundation director Stephanie Cline cited many reasons why the event is coming to an end. “When you approach a significant milestone, it’s always an opportunity to stand back and consider, ‘Where does this fit in?’, ” Cline said. “In the case of Festival of Trees, it’s a wonderful event and people love it, but there has been some trending we have watched for a See TREES, Page 2

page 2 kitsapweek Friday, November 25, 2011 The Festival of Trees raised about $3 million in 24 years to meet various needs at Harrison Hospital. This year’s proceeds will go toward refurbishing the intensive care unit waiting room.

Trees Continued from page 1 couple of years.� For one, people’s auction habits have changed and they are less likely to buy “stuff.� While items such as unique experiences or trips still pull in premium amounts at the auction, the trees themselves don’t always obtain as high an amount as they did in the past. The lower bids could partially be blamed on the switch to using artificial trees — once you buy one, you have one. How many Christmas trees does one need? In the past, festival designers used live preserved trees, but over the years the artificial tree product became a better choice because it allowed designers more freedom and time to create. In addition to a lower dollar amount for the trees, there has been a decline in festival attendance numbers the past five or six years. Cline said it will be interesting to see how many people attend this year’s finale. “The decision to celebrate 25 years and then back away from the festival is part of a larger strategic plan of the foundation,� Cline said. “We are broadening our scope on how we raise money.� Long-time foundation board member Ralph Lintz, came up with the idea for the Festival of Trees after visiting relatives in Port-

land. His aunt and uncle had purchased a beautiful circus motif tree at a hospital fundraiser and Lintz knew a similar event in Kitsap could generate a great deal of money for the hospital’s foundation. Over the years, the festival raised about $3 million. Money obtained at this final event will go toward refurbishing the intensive care unit’s waiting room. Cline said one thing she will miss about the Festival of Trees is the chance to hear personal stories of how Harrison Medical Center touches the lives of Kitsap

families. The festival provides an ideal time for the foundation to interact with the community. Superb hospital care for her father was one of the driving forces behind Carlson’s initial interest in the Festival of Trees. “My father had been in and out of Harrison for over a year,� she said. “They provided my father with excellent care and everyone — from the surgeons to the people cleaning the floors — went out of their way to make us feel comfortable.� Thirty trees will be on display at this year’s festival. All will be auctioned off

18th Annual Bainbridge Island

either in a live auction or an online auction. Tree themes this year range from a New York-inspired tree, complete with a trip to the Big Apple, to an “Under the Stars� tree which contains 25 crystals, one for each year of the festival. The larger trees include objects under the tree as well, such as furniture, toys, wine and more. Carlson said she likes for her theme ideas to float to the surface, similar to a Crazy 8 ball. “Sometimes I feel desperate if I don’t have the theme for next year’s tree at the end of the festival,� she said. Carlson estimates she spends more than 150 hours each year on her tree. And over the years, she’s learned how to create a “decorator tree,� as opposed to a “home tree.� The difference is, with a home tree, you put all your favorite ornaments on it and it doesn’t matter if a lot of green is showing. With a decorator tree, you want the colors to match and have one or two dominate colors. Decorator trees tend to be fuller with lots of glitz. On two occasions, Carlson bought back her tree at the auction. “As it often happens, when I put a lot of energy into something, I tend to put a lot of emotional energy into it as well,� she said. “I just had to buy those trees back.� Cline acknowledges the last Festival of Trees will be bittersweet. It served as a holiday tradition for many

“The decision to celebrate 25 years and then back away from the festival is part of a larger strategic plan of the foundation.� Stephanie Cline, director of Harrison Medical Center Foundation

families. “All things come to an end, even really good things,� she said. “Twentyfive years is a long time to

have been doing the same thing over and over and over again.� Although she’s sad about this festival ending, Carlson said she is not completely devastated. The reason? “I know I’d feel quite bereft if my sister and I weren’t planning on starting a hospital guild that will incorporate mini-trees,� she said. Their guild is in the early planning stages, but Carlson is happy to continue the tradition of creating Christmas trees. Cline said the Festival of Trees has been a tremendous outpouring of support from the community. “The Pavilion is a very big place. When you stand in the middle of the room and realize not a thing got there without a donor or volunteer, it’s an awesome feeling.�

Best-selling author to visit Kitsap BY ERIN JENNINGS Kitsap Week

B

est-selling young readers fantasy author Christopher Paolini is on tour promoting his latest book, “Inheritance,� the concluding novel in the Inheritance series. Paolini will make a stop on his multi-city tour on Nov. 28 at 7 p.m. at Bainbridge High School Commons, 9330 NE High School Road, Bainbridge Island. I was able to chat with him in between tour visits to learn a bit about him and his popular series. EJ: You were raised in a rural, mountainous region of Montana. How did your childhood influence your books? CP: The books were a natural outgrowth of my upbringing. Living in Montana and getting to see the landscape and wildlife all fed into the story and helped form and enrich it. And, of course, the fact that I was home-schooled played a part. EJ: How old were you when you came up with the story for “Eragon�? CP: I first thought of the idea when I was 14, but didn't start working on it until 1998 when I was 15. EJ: Did being home schooled allow you freedom that you wouldn’t have otherwise had? CP: Yeah. That was a large part of it. Being home-schooled allowed me to move at my own pace through the subject material, which meant I was able to graduate at 15. Being able to graduate early meant I had the time to write. You can’t write if you don’t have the time. If I'd been in high school and was taking different classes and playing sports and

Christopher Paolini will visit Kitsap. dealing with homework, I never would have been able to write “Eragon.� EJ: Did you want to be a writer when you were younger? CP: No, not at all. I wanted to be doing all the things I wrote about in the stories. I wanted to be riding dragons, fighting monsters and having adventures. Telling stories rose out of the desire of those daydreams. I have really fallen in love with this profession. I love writing and telling stories. I am very happy to be doing this. EJ: I’m a parent of a child not much younger

than you were when you wrote “Eragon.� I find it remarkable that your parents had the confidence in you to agree to selfpublish the book. CP: Part of it was they were happy I was writing because it kept me busy. I didn’t have a lot to do because I wasn’t in school and I didn’t have a job. My family was always looking for things we could do together and form a family business. So when I gave the manuscript to my parents and they read it, they really felt that there was something good in it and it

was worth pursuing. We all sat down and said, “Is this something worth trying?� And we all decided that it was and we would selfpublish it and try to make a go of it. Fortunately for us, it worked out. EJ: What does your family think now? CP: We are all amazed by it. On one hand, the sense of disbelief has faded over the years. It’s gotten easier to accept what has happened. But at the same time, it never goes away. On the tour I’m on now, I’m continually amazed by how much these books have meant to people. And the reactions I get from them — the emotions the story seems to have evoked in them. Yeah, it’s really kind of amazing. None of us have ever forgotten how far we’ve come and what an incredible journey it’s been. EJ: How does it feel to see people reading your book on the airplane, or buying it in the store?

CP: I actually haven’t seen it quite as much as you would imagine because I live in a pretty isolated part of the country and I don’t get out too much except when I’m on tour. When I first did see people with the books and heard they were reading them, it was a little surreal. I never really believed when I was writing “Eragon� that anyone aside from my parents would read it. I wasn’t even sure my sister would read it! And to know that people all around the world are enjoying it is something I am very grateful and humble for. EJ: Your stories center on an elaborate fictional world. How do you keep all the details straight? CP: It definitely gets tricky at times. I’m lucky I have a lot of very good readers who look at the book before it’s published and help catch any mistakes on my part. I literally keep hundreds of pages of notes: Lists of character names, place names, histories, family trees and deleted scenes for reference. It’s a big job, but the thing is, you really

page 7

have to do it. You cannot keep track of it in your head. EJ: Where did you find your inspiration for the dragons? CP: Most of the behavior of Saphira came from my knowledge of dogs and cats that I grew up with. And also watching the animals in Montana. I’m glad I had pets growing up, because I think it helped me make the dragon much more realistic than I would have otherwise. EJ: How does it feel to be finished with the final book in the series? CP: It’s a little bittersweet to be saying goodbye to the world and the characters. But at the same time, it’s really excting to know the readers are finally able to get their hands on the last book and see the end of the story. I’ve always known where the story was going but, of course, the readers haven’t. EJ: So you are saying that way back when you began the first book, you knew where the story would lead you?

CP: Oh, yeah. Every writer works differently, but the way I work is I find it basically impossible to write unless I know where I’m going. In fact, I tried writing some books before “Eragon” and never got past the first few pages for that very reason. So before I started “Eragon,” I plotted out the entire story from start to finish. EJ: Do you plan on continuing to write? CP: Oh, yes. I definitely have some more stories in Eragon’s world that I would like to tell. At the same time, after working on this series for so long, I think I am going to work on other stories. I basically have 2030 completely new books all plotted out that I’ve been waiting to write. Some are science fiction, mystery, history, thriller, romance, historical-fiction, you name it, I’d like to try it. EJ: I read that when you first began touring for “Eragon” you dressed in medieval clothing. CP: That was an idea to get more attention for the book because no one knew who I was and no one knew what the book was, so yeah, I wore a costume. EJ: How did that feel being a home-schooled child, dressed in costume and entering high schools? CP: The first time I was ever in a public high school, I walked in wearing that costume. It was scary, I won’t deny it. But I found very quickly that the students were interested in my story and the story of the book. They wanted to like me. I lost my fear very quickly. And honestly,

being home-schooled, I never really had any difficultly speaking in public or interacting with strangers. Having not gone to public school, I never had to experience being beaten down for who I was. I didn’t have the negative experience of people making fun of me in public, so walking out in front of a bunch of high schoolers was scary, but not something I felt I couldn’t do. EJ: Anything else? CP: I’m very proud of this last book. I think it’s the best book in the series. For people who haven’t read the first three books, or who don’t read fantasy in general, I say they can easily pick this book up and get into the story. Even though it is fantasy, it deals with universal questions of how to live and what’s right and what’s wrong. It’s a classic coming of age story.

WEST SOUND READS The Nov. 28 free reading and book signing takes place at 7 p.m. at the Bainbridge High School Commons, 9330 NE High School Road, Bainbridge Island. Fans who purchase “Inheritance” from a local independent bookstore prior to the event will get a ticket, while supplies last, for two preferred seats plus upfront places in the book-signing line. Participating book stores include Eagle Harbor Book Store (Bainbridge Island), Liberty Bay Books (Poulsbo), The Traveler (Bainbridge Island), and Dauntless Books (Port Gamble).

Ask Erin Continued from page 8 Dear Changing, Isn’t it ironic that during the holidays we hear so

much about peace, yet have such a difficult time finding our own? There is a fine line between being selfish and doing what’s best for you and your family, and it sounds

like you have the best of intentions. Be honest. Tell your extended family your wishes for a low-key holiday and that you won’t be joining them on Christmas Eve.

There may be protests, so be gentle, yet firm. Suggest an alternative, like gathering in early December to decorate gingerbread houses. Remember, nothing is set is stone. You may find you
