Seniors work the ice Bremerton ice skaters 55 and older spin and glide past the winter blues BY JJ SWANSON JSWANSON@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
Dennis Woody glides across the ice, his lips pursed beneath his white beard. He shifts from left to right, looking for his center of balance, tucks in his arms and jumps up like a spring, one full rotation and sticks the landing. Woody is 65 years old and didn’t step onto the ice until he was “well past 50.” Now he is doing waltz jumps at the Bremerton Ice Center’s Senior Skate, a session held by the rink for seniors ages 55 and up. “I used to take my kids, but I didn’t just want to watch, so I strapped on a skate,” said Woody. Some seniors in Bremerton have discovered ice skating as a way to stay active during the winter months, and con-
trary to popular belief, it is not just a sport for the young and agile. There can be substantial benefits for seniors with a physical hobby like skating, including strengthening the joints, staving off depression and improving memory, said Chris D’Attilio, Alzheimer’s advocate for Bay Vista Commons Assisted Living and Memory Care in Bremerton. “It’s important for our seniors keep their minds and bodies active,” D’Attilio said. “But during this time of year it’s harder for them. It’s right after the holidays, and it’s cold and rainy outside.” D’Attilio said that “mall walks,” where seniors would be shuttled in the mornings to Kitsap Mall to jog when the weather was bad ended when there wasn’t enough participation.

Many in Bremerton felt victory last August when the city imposed a six-month moratorium on building methadone clinics. Since then, the city’s planning commission has done its work and found that clinics can be built on the very location that drew the original opposition. Wednesday, the Bremer ton Cit y Council will review and consider maps that show proposed locations suitable for future “Opiate substitution Treatment Facilities” operate within the city limits. The council is expected to approve Ordinance 5177, during a Feb. 1 meeting, which amends current zoning codes and permitting procedures to regulate the placement of methadone clinics. Downtown business owner Todd Best was part of an outright vocal opposition to any methadone clinic in the city. Monday, Best said he still opposes building a clinic in areas such as the Callow Street business corridor, an area deemed suitable for a treatment center. “Why ruin a neighborhood that’s plagued already?” asked Best. Kitsap County Public Health Director Scott Lindquist said regardless of the city’s new-
found ability to permit the clinics, they already lost the only real chance to host a clinic to serve local opiate addicted patients, many of whom currently travel to King County for treatment. “Zoning doesn’t matter at this point,” Lindquist said. “The city didn’t recognize what they had.” Last s pr i n g , Evergreen Treatment Services began to look at building a clinic on the Callow Business District. In August, at the behest of local business ow ners opposing the clinic, the Bremerton City Council took the only legal action possible and placed a six-month moratorium on methadone clinics saying they had no mechanism to zone and permit them and needed time to create proper rules. State law forbids city and county authorities placing outright bans on methadone clinics, but allows for local jurisdictions to control locations through zoning and permitting. Kitsap County still has a 1980s era law forbidding methadone clinics in its jurisdiction. At the moment, city planners have recommended that leaders vote to allow methadone clinics in any “center” throughout the city. SEE METHADONE, A7

The hospital staff is “grateful” that the weather warmed up and that those with senior family members should still minimize going outside or offer help until the ice clears up, Goodwill said. Else where, the storm brought “hundreds of calls” to Bremerton Police Department between Jan. 18 and 20, reporting kids sliding down potentially dangerous hills and cars driving too fast on the roads. One homeless man called 9-1-1 because he couldn’t figure out where to go in the snow storm, said Bremerton Police Lt. Luis Olan.

After snow, it’s business as usual Not much of an affect to the county beyond the $153,000 to clear and maintain roads By KRISTIN OKINAKA kokinaka@soundpublishing.com
All that remained Monday from last week’s anticipated snowfall were large clumps of snow and thousands of tons of dirt mixtures piled in corners of parking lots and thin layers of snow that hadn’t melted yet in some shady areas. Despite the 6 to 8 inches of snow that fell in Central Kitsap and Bremerton, Kitsap County offices resumed work as usual — some were even working last week unhindered by the snow. “Other than the fact that

Nimitz officer killed while helping motorist on icy road By JJ Swanson jswanson@soundpublishing.com
It took days, but the recent stretch of winter storms and foul weather Monday claimed a life in Kitsap County. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Regina Mills, 44, an aircraft handling officer aboard the USS Nimitz (CVN 68), was killed Monday while trying to help a motorcyclist who had lost control on an icy stretch of State Route 16. Mills was hit as she stood near a state trooper and another person standing on the shoulder near Port Orchard when a pickup truck slid out of control. “Tasked with ensuring optimum safety on board an aircraft carrier, an inherently dangerous environment, she died as a result of trying to assist a person faced with potential danger. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family,” said
Capt. Paul O. Monger, USS Nimitz commanding officer. Authorities said, that Mills drove her car onto the shoulder of the road near the Burnham Drive exit when she saw the motorcyclist’s bike lying on its side in the right lane of the roadway. Several other cars were also stuck on the shoulder when Mills arrived. Trooper Maxwell Criss of the Washington State Patrol was at the scene shortly after receiving the 5 a.m. call of a multi-vehicle collision. Criss and Mills helped the motorcyclist to the right shoulder when a pick-up truck approaching the scene swerved and knocked several other cars into the shoulder, said Trooper Guy Gill, spokesman for the Washington State Patrol. One vehicle struck the group, killing Mills. See NIMITZ, A12

No secret, students use tobacco CKSD updates to tobacco policy in smokeless times By KRISTIN OKINAKA kokinaka@soundpublishing.com
The Central Kitsap School District is in the midst of updating its tobacco use policy and while already prohibited from being used on school property, some students say smoking or chewing tobacco can be a problem. “I think it’s absolutely disgusting,” said Jessica VonScheele, a senior at Klahowya Secondary School. The current district policy prohibits the possession and use of tobacco products on district property and an update to include nicotine substances as well is on the table. A revised policy could make an exception for prescription-only nicotine replacement products that are used for tobacco cessation. The Central Kitsap School Board was expected

Snow job IN OUR OPINION
A week after the biggest snowstorm in two years and the city of Bremerton cannot yet say how much they spent running seven snowplows from 3 a.m. Jan. 18 until the city response ended many days later. Considering that Bremerton Public Works has previously suffered under poor direction that has led to many consistent and legitimate questions about the expenditures, including the Street Fund, and that the city council last month increased the citizens tax burden by more than $650,000 to fund city streets in 2012, the city owes its citizens an answer that is profoundly more detailed than “we’re still trying to figure that out.” Adding to the concern is the fact that Bremerton’s mayor believed the storm related budget to be $35,000 and the office of the city’s finance director said the budget was $15,000. Considering the lack of confidence in the city’s 2012 budget by those who created it and approved it, everyone charged with overseeing a department budget should be able to rattle off the status of their accounts on any given day. The county, also cash strapped and facing possible further reductions to its 2012 budget, fielded eight plows that delivered thousands of tons of sand and tens of thousands of gallons of salt brine combined with the overtime to run around the clock operations on 940 miles of county road at a “preliminary” cost of $153,000. Bremerton has 128 miles of road, but they can’t, or won’t, say how much sand or salt brine went down or explain the manpower from the public works department in any quantifiable manner. With the new public works director a few weeks into the job, we had hoped for a more transparent and open reporting of the city’s spending of the people’s money.

Pro parental involvement
LETTERS
Many thanks to school leaders. Schools are doing somewhatacademically OK — for some of our students. You are to be commended for your pay-as-you go sports fees programs along with your educational efforts! All of you stated you can’t and/or won’t require parental involvement; that has been legally required by Title 1, compensatory schools programs for decades! Are you aware that there are 16+ states that have charter schools
programs of KIPP and YES requiring parent’s involvement? Case in point, Missouri state has 20 charter schools with innovate methods of requiring parent involvement. Could that be the reason they are academically more superior than Washington state schools? Plus, Missouri state schools have five schools that made the U.S. Department of Education National Blue Ribbon Schools List. Also, why are local school districts quick to blame students’ color for their poor academic performance; especially when there are only 48,900 black students, 4.7 percent and 196,245 Hispanic students, 18.9 percent; out of a statewide student population of 1,040,986? There simply are not enough students
of color to effectively alter the 295 school districts and 2,084 schools. That game is as old as the hills. It’s called “blaming the victim.” And in this case, the students are being blamed for the lack of superior educational programs, charter schools and teacher’s high academic expectations of all their students. Research challenges us to defy the stereotype that poverty precludes high academic performance and that lower-income and low academic achievement are inextricably linked. It demonstrates that economically disadvantaged children can learn at the highest levels and provide hope to other lower-income students SEE LETTERS, A16

temporary levy would be in place for two years and would generate $7.6 million. CKSD has excellent schools because our community has consistently demanded and supported them. Over the past five years, we have managed $14.6 million in funding shortfalls while protecting the classroom. However, we have never faced a deficit of the current magnitude. The next round of reductions will adversely impact our students and our community. At issue now is whether we can maintain the educational quality our community has come to expect. We do not want to place an additional economic burden on local taxpayers. Yet, we also acknowledge that financial support is the only way to ensure our students continue to receive a quality education. So we are turning to our community and staff to ask: “What do you think is important?” We encourage you to learn more about the CKSD Supplemental School Support Levy by visiting the district website at www.

to ensure the a process is adhered to and that the final recommendation is as balanced, representative and informative as possible. The Citizens for Good Schools in Bremerton committee will be holding a community forum on Wednesday, Feb. 1 at 5:30 p.m. in the school district’s board room. The purpose of the forum is to share information about the anticipated projects and financial needs of the district that exceed the current budget, which the proposed levy would support. The forum will also
provide the opportunity for community members to make their thoughts known to the committee and eventually to the school board. People both for and against the levy are openly encouraged to attend. If you cannot attend the meeting and still wish to make your opinion known, you can email Wendy at bremertonschools@live.com and she will ensure that your submission is included. This is Bremerton’s opportunity to participate in a decision that will affect the entire community. Local education will be impacted one way or another via either the levy passage or failure.

City council forms ad-hoc parking committee Main goal, deal with 20 chronic parking “shufflers” By GREG SKINNER gskinner@soundpublishing.com
In a town of 37,000 residents, three members of the city council have banded together to find a way to deal with less than two-dozen chronic “shufflers.” “The [committee’s] focus should be to disrupt the chronic shuff lers,”

sional shipyard worker and downtown business owners and employees. The committee will meet at 3 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month until a solution is reached and they disband. Tuesday’s inaugural meeting of the parking committee started with Runyon seeking to get himself appointed parking tsar. The move came with an objection from new councilmember Leslie Daugs, who also sought the chair. She also pushed to have citizen and business owner involvement rather than pursue Runyon’s idea to have only the three elected look into the parking issue for which they gathered. Runyon offered to push the three-member panel into a vote on the chair issue then noted it would be a 2-1 outcome. “I see where we’re going,” Daugs said before stepping aside from the issue. Supporting Runyon’s desire to be chair, newly minted council president Jim McDonald said

limeted free parking is not illegal as long as the car or truck is moved to another street following the expiration of the time. Almost every street in downtown Bremerton as a time limit and leaders say it’s to address the unique situation created by 20,000 shipyard workers and thousands of ferry riders who infuse downtown on a daily basis. A previous attempt to get business owners and their employees to use the city’s parking garage, by discounting the monthly rate to $40, largely failed. McDonald said he was concerned that people didn’t know the plan was available. “We have an underutilized parking garage,” he said. Daugs said that she spoke with several owners and employees, who
shuff le, who said they wouldn’t use the garage because of safety concerns. It’s dark when they go to work and when they leave, she said. “The perception is downtown is unsafe for females,” Runyon said. Later, he agreed that safety is perhaps the realm of Bremerton Police. McDonald said the “apparent” cause of the “shuff le” was about 20 vehicles. He offered an idea that perhaps Bremerton should follow the lead of Walla Walla, which allows only one free parking space per day per vehicle. “You cannot return that day,” McDonald said. “We suggest [drivers] can’t return for one hour.” Another concurring group of parkers were those with handicap placards who parked as long as they liked in handicap spots. “They were taking up all the spots because it was legal,” McDonald said. “Now it’s a four hour limit.” A word of caution came from Daugs who asked, “Are we saying that we don’t want people to come downtown?” With the discussion barely begun, the committees’ first meeting ended 30 minutes after it started – plenty of time for anyone citizen in attendance to return to their car before getting a ticket.

METHADONE CONTINUED FROM A1
A center is defined as a multi-use area like the Manette business district or the Callow Avenue and Burwell Street intersection. Additional rules keep clinics 1,000 feet from any school, park or another methadone clinic. Bremerton city planner Allison Daniels said the 1,000-foot rule would take Manette out of the picture. The site Evergreen chose in the former Skookum Services building on Burwell Street, however would have passed muster. Lindquist said that no clinic operators were interested in Bremerton or the county. The interested party has moved on he said. Daniels Monday said she couldn’t say exactly how many locations potentially passed the new zoning regulations, or where they were. She said the maps to be used Wednesday are still being created. They will be available at the study session, she said. “The maps are conceptual,” Daniels said. The first draft of the maps, gained through Best, show that most of Kitsap Way from the State Highway 3 to the intersection with 11th Street would be open to clinic development as well as much of Wheaton Way it the council allows them to be built in centers. If the council rules that no clinic can be built-in centers, the treatment centers would be restricted to the far northern reaches of Wheaton Way and West of the highway. Bremerton’s proposed regulatory course differs from many other Washington cities’. The staff hopes to make permits conditional and create a system by which an independent “hearings examiner” decides if an applicant meets all zoning criteria. Bremerton contracts hearing examiner duties with Sound Law Center, a Seattle land use resolution center. The planning department also seeks a twoweek extension on the current moratorium. The extra time is procedural in that the original moratorium expires Feb. 2 – one days after the council is expected to pass the

law and nine days before the law can take effect, Daniels said. The state approved the city’s plans in December. No appeals were filed. In a 5 to 1 vote last October, the planning committee approved zoning code amendments, which allows methadone clinics to be built more than 1,000 feet from schools, public parks and other methadone clinics. The chosen site must also be located on a “collector street” or larger. Beyond those conditions, the clinics are treated as any other medical office in zoning terms. Under the current proposal, there is no limit on the number of patients a clinic can serve. Though, one parking stall per 150 square feet of clinic space must be provided. During the October meeting, planning commissioner John Cockburn said that the number of zones that methadone clinics could be located should be reduced and prevent locating them in center locations at all. Daniels responded, at the time, saying that the schools and parks restrictions should mostly resolve Cockburn’s concerns. Cockburn was the lone

The Bremerton City Council is expected to vote on the matter during its Feb. 1 regular meeting. no vote, saying the number of possible clinic locations remained too large. Planning commissioner Kelli Lambert noted, before voting in favor, that the amendments were more stringent than other cities.

Lawrence Emmett Marler Jr. November 20, 1929 - 2012 “Never an ex-marine - Semper Fi” Lawrence (Larry) Emmett Marler Jr. was born in St. Louis, Missouri on November 20, 1929, as the second of what would be seven children to Lawrence Sr. and Golda Marler. In 1943 the family moved to a seventy-seven acre corn and dairy farm in Bonne Terre, Missouri. Until Larry left for Doane College in Nebraska on a basketball scholarship, indoor plumbing was something he experienced only in town. His study of chemistry and love of basketball were interrupted by the Korean War. Larry volunteered to the Marines where he served with distinction from 1950 to 1954, gaining the rank of Lance Corporal and playing basketball for the Marine Corp Team. In 1952 while recovering in Bremerton from injuries sustained in Korea, he met and then eventually married, Diane Gwendolyn LaFond, his bride, “sweetie” and love of his life. Diane was a lieutenant in the Navy Nurse Corp, and continued to outrank Larry for nearly sixty, love-filled, happy years. They had three children, Donald Gene Marler of Seabeck, William Dale Marler of Bainbridge Island and Maura Kay Marler Pilet, deceased. In 1969 Larry and Diane found a hobby farm on the Hood Canal near the old town of Bangor where Larry taught his kids to enjoy (somewhat) farm chores. When not planting fruit trees, Larry taught math and science to thousands of students over 29 years at the PSNS Apprenticeship Program and Olympic Jr. College. Larry received his AA from Olympic Jr. College in 1956 where he also played basketball and coached the Rangers. The Marler Family funded the Maura Marler Pilet Nursing Scholarship for students graduating from Central Kitsap High School. Larry died at Hospice on his own terms and with the same quiet dignity he lived his life. Larry loved to Fish. Just before Larry died his sons were reading him Hemmingway’s “The Big Two-Hearted River:” The leader had broken where the hook was tied to it. Nick took it in his hand. He thought of the trout somewhere on the bottom, holding himself steady over the gravel, far down below the light, under the logs, with the hook in his jaw. Nick knew the trout’s teeth would cut through the snell of the hook. The hook would imbed itself in his jaw. He’d bet the trout was angry. Anything that size would be angry. That was a trout. He had been solidly hooked. Solid as a rock. He felt like a rock, too, before he started off. By God, he was a big one. By God, he was the biggest one I ever heard of. Larry is survived by his wife Diane and sons Don and Bill, and siblings Donna Mullins, Dorinda Simpson and Richard Marler. Seven grandchildren, four great grandchildren, and too many cousins to count also survive him. At Larry’s request there will be no memorial service. In lieu of flowers, please donate to Hospice of Kitsap County or to the Maura Marler Pilet Nursing Scholarship at Olympic College. TRIBUTE Paid Notice

cles. He does not do jumps but skates laps around the rink. Sandy Schopes, a 69-yearold member, said that she found that the fresh, cool air on the ice has also helped her asthma. The seniors were invited to participate in a holiday show of the Jungle Book in December. 2011. Helen Butler, a 66-year-old member recalled their coach drilling them on “synchro lines,” where all the seniors skated in unison in single file. Butler said that ice skating requires seniors to memorize routines, count steps and workout their minds, which she believes is essential to keeping “a healthy brain.” “Our coaches told us, don’t look down,” Butler said. “And don’t look old when you’re skating, smile and make it fun.” Regulars at the Senior
Skate range in experience, some are former competitive hockey players such as Paulsen who can still spray ice with a quick stop of his blades. Others, such as Butler, hadn’t skated since she was a young girl. Butler was injured on the ice last year when her toe pick caught the ice during a skating session. She shattered her knee cap and for some time considered not coming back. But in five months she was back on the ice, a place she feels “truly free.” “This is a passion,” Butler said. “If I was going to quit, it was going to be on my own terms.” Butler argues that seniors can hurt themselves every day. Just this morning, she recalled starting to slip on a patch of black ice on the road. This time, her ice skating experience saved her. “I bent my knees like they taught us here, stood still and just slid,” Butler said. All seniors who come into the rink can sign up for basic
lessons and have a coach help them on the ice, said Derek Donald, general manager of the ice center. “Our staff is trained to deal with falls,” said Donald. “We’re not going to just send them out there if they don’t know what they’re doing. There’s plenty of help to make it safe and fun.” Public skate sessions can
be crowded on the ice and intimidating to seniors trying to skate for the first time, Donald said. That is why the rink partnered with Bremerton Parks and Recreation Senior Center to start the special senior skating session three years ago. Seniors can skate for free if they register with Bremerton Parks and Recreation Senior

Center. The dues for single city residents are $8 for the year. Senior Skates are Mondays and Wednesdays at 11 a.m. The group currently has 10 to 12 regulars and has a “tight knit camaraderie.” Butler said that they look forward to seeing each other all week and teach each other on the ice.
“It can be one of the most humbling and humiliating experiences when you’re first tripping around on the ice,” said Robin Spadey, the youngest member. “But nothing beats that feeling when your body does something you didn’t think it could anymore.”

Authorities reported 83 crimes during the storm – burglaries, thefts or drugs. “It was crime as usual,” Olan said. “Bad guys know no quarter.” Little property damage from vehicles sliding off the roads, crashing into homes, sheds or mail boxes occurred. Olan explained that when property damage totaled less than $700, police were instructed to hand out self-fill forms for the homeowner and motorist to mail in to the state. Across Washington state, the volume of snow-related highway accidents increased, said Russ Winger, spokesman for Washington State Patrol. Response times by troopers quadrupled over the same days last year due to this increased volume of calls, he said. “We had a good amount of snowrelated collisions,” Winger said. “But, following [the storm] it got very quiet, now that roads are bare and wet for the most part.” Bremerton School District is not sure if they will be required to make make up the missed days due to snow, said Patty Glaser, spokesperson for Bremerton School District. “We’re just not sure because with
Criss sustained injuries on his knee, shoulder and face. The motorcyclist received “minor injuries,” according to the state patrol press release. In total, seven vehicles were involved in the early morning collision. “So many cars were hit and on the side of that road, it’s still being put together by investigators how,” said Gill, spokesman for the Washington State Patrol. Gill said that there were many factors in the accident. The road conditions that morning were “poor” and all the vehicles involved were not equipped with snow chains or tires. “Those quick freezes we get from 4 to 6 a.m. catch a lot of people off guard,” Gill said. Washington State Depa r t ment of Transportation came through those roads as soon as the accident was cleared to melt the ice and put “product down

Since 1999, 12th grade smoking is down 44 percent. In 2010, the rate for 10th graders who smoke was at 12.7 percent, said Church. This percentage accounts for students who have smoked at least once in the last 30 days. In 1999, the rate for that grade level was

people that came to the county last week and therefore resulted in a lower volume of customers, said Bear. Snow is an inconvenience, he said. In other offices, such as the Assessor’s Office, most people worked the full day Thursday and some roadwork was shifted to office work. The office had 20 real estate transactions that day. Preliminary estimates on the cost for the response to the storm was about $153,000, Bear said Tuesday. This number is broken down to $47,000 going toward both regular and overtime road maintenance staff, $31,000 in equipment costs, $55,000

A United States Postal Service truck work its way through the Jan. 18 winter storm that crippled the Kitsap County and state road system. the wind storm a few years ago [that canceled school,] we were not required to make it up,” Glaser said. She added that if the state does not require the district to make up the three missed school days, they will not likely add those school days to the end of the school year. Bremerton Mayor Patti Lent said that the city had a budgeted for roads, sand and overtime work for clearing ice for 2012. As of Tuesday, Lent was unable to say how much
the storm blew through the budget. Kitsap County reported spending about $153,000 for its battle with the storm. Caroline Thompson, budget analyst for the City of Bremerton said that the 2012 budget for winter storm personnel and supplies was $15,000. “We are still finalizing any overtime for sand and fuel to get the entire cost,” Lent said.
for traction,” Gill added. Speed was a factor as well, Gill explained. Though the speed limit on that stretch of roadway is 50 mph, he cautioned that during this time of year, everyone should be increasing their following distance and reducing their overall speed. Criss is recovering at home. The department expects that it will “take a little while before he gets back on the street.” The details of a memorial service for Mills by the USS Nimitz command is still being planned, said Sheila Murray, spokeswoman for Navy Region Northwest. Mills’ hometown was Louisville, Ky. “Regina was a great leader and officer. She was a leader and mentor not only to the sailors and officers in the Air Department, but throughout the ship,” Monger said. “It would be difficult to find anyone aboard Nimitz whose life or career here wasn’t positively influenced by her.”
at 25 percent. Since 2002, information has been gathered through the Healthy Youth Survey, a state survey that students voluntarily participate in that ask a range of questions regarding health. The next survey will be given to students next fall with data being released in 2013. Church said that the department is concerned that smoking rates may rise because of the decrease in funding for tobacco preven-
tion programs. At one time there was about 28 million, including federal money, going toward prevention programs compared to the couple million received now. Other states such as Florida and Massachusetts saw significant decreases in the number of smokers because of aggressive prevention programs but then a rise in rates once money for those programs were gone, said Church. “We’re certainly con-
cerned with where we’re at today,” he said. Throughout the years though, the important factor has always been to reach children. Most adult smokers started when they were children, said Church. “It’s really rare for adults to decide to smoke in their 20s,” said Church. “It’s the kids who start and carry that habit into adulthood.” At Central Kitsap High School, senior Kericho Corry said that he knows
there are students who smoke but he hasn’t seen it occurring as openly at school recently. “If they do it, they are going to be secretive about it,” he said. Last school year Corry, 18, said he would park in the junior parking lot west of the school and would sometimes see students smoking there. This school year he hasn’t seen one person smoking on campus, but he also added that he
doesn’t park in that lot anymore. Corry said students don’t seem to be smoking as much anymore or they are going off campus to do it. He added that he could just not be seeing it happening. Regardless, tobacco use isn’t an anomaly in Central Kitsap. “This will always be a problem every day in a high school,” he said.
for sand and $20,000 for salt brine. A total of 3,279 tons of sand and more than 150,000 gallons of salt brine were used on county roads. The Clerk’s Office reported to Bear that most staff were able to work last Thursday afternoon and a few arrived into the office at 8 a.m. even though the courthouse had a delayed opening, which had it officially opening at noon. Last Friday was the final delay day with the courthouse opening at 10 a.m., a two-hour delay. The administration building and most other county offices are regulary closed Fridays. Kitsap County Prosecutor Russell Hauge said that whenever the court is in session, he and his staff need to be available to work. If someone is arrested, that person
has a right to be in court the next session, he said. The court did not have jurors come in during the snowstorm days and therefore there are two or three pending cases, Hauge said Monday. Other than those, at noon last Thursday, the court picked up where they would have been the day before. “With people straggling in, it put a little stress on,” said Hauge adding that they did not suffer any “major difficulties.” While there were those that “had” to brave the snowy conditions for work, there were others who also did so for volunteer purposes. The county’s Severe Weather Shelter, which opens when the temperature is expected to be 32 degrees or lower, and is operated by
trained volunteers, was open from the evening of Jan. 10 to the morning of Jan. 21, said Susan May, spokeswoman for the county Department of Emergency Management. The shelter, at the Bremerton Foodline, ranged in occupants from eight on low evenings and 23 at most, said May. The most people came when there was snow. There are always a minimum of two volunteers present — one woman and one man — who run the shelter and if there are not enough volunteers, the shelter cannot open. And although the shelter is only open during the evenings when temperatures are freezing or below, the Foodline director allowed the shelter to remain open for people during the day
Wednesday — the day with the most snowfall. Throughout the county’s 940 miles of road, only two roads — not in Central Kitsap or Bremerton — had to close due to the snow. Both are connecter roads — one on the north end of the county and the other in Port Orchard — that are hilly, said Bear. The response to clearing the roads was successful, said Bear, adding that the county has a “priority one” and “priority two” list of roads to plow first. Because the snow was forewarned by forecasters, the county had also pretreated the roads. Priority one routes include commercial zones and emergency routes and were being plowed during the first 36 hours. The Central Kitsap School District plans to tack on three
days to the end of the school year in June to make up for last week’s snow days. If the district receives information from the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction regarding waiver days, the situation could change, said David Beil, district spokesman. On Monday, there had been no reports of any major flooding in the county due to snow melt, said Bear. Overall, while most said the snow was an inconvenience, it could have been worse. “We’re pretty lucky over here,” said May. “We may have seen the same amount of snow and wind but we didn’t have power outages.”

Preparing for cuts CK School District continues budget talks By KRISTIN OKINAKA kokinaka@soundpublishing.com
It was like drafting for a fantasy football team, but there were no weak players. And it was unlikely that people were participating for the fun of it. Parents, staff and other community members prioritized and then selected which school programs and positions from a list of partially funded or not funded items by the state they think the Central Kitsap School District should keep next school year at a community meeting. With about a $6.3 million shortfall for the 20122013 school year, the district is seeking the community’s help — earlier in the process and more in depth than past years. “I’m glad it’s not my final decision. I think it should all be funded,” said Debbie Schultz, who attended the first of three scheduled public budget meetings on Monday. Schultz, a secretary in the off-campus parent-partnership program for homeschool students, said many extracurricular programs — that are not funded by the state — are what keep some students in school. Her program is not one of the 31 items on the discussion list or set for possible cuts. She had two children

second community budget meeting that evening and hopefully bring some of her students too. In charge of the school’s drama club, James is in the midst of working with students for Winterfest, a March performance of original student works. Planning for the spring, James was hoping to help the students prepare for a murder mystery type play but now is considering putting on a musical instead. If her program — or part of it — is eliminated next school year, at least her students would have been part of a musical this year. “I’m contemplating doing a musical just because I don’t know what next year will bring,” James said. “Just because right now it’s unclear.” “Hopefully there will be some programs that will be cut back than eliminated,” James said. “My preference would be to still have programs available to students.” At Central Kitsap, James said she has about 20 to 30 students during busier times with the drama club and a core group of about 10 to 12. While many people tend to focus on the programs that they think directly make a difference for students, Robin Schnuit, who is a substitute teacher at Cougar Valley Elementary School with two children in the district, reminded others at Monday’s meeting that other items on the list are just as important. Money for custodial staff are not funded by the state. “A clean school is a healthy school,” she said. “We don’t want maintenance to cost more in the future.”

College Goal Sunday coming to Olympic College Students to receive free financial aid help BY KRISTIN OKINAKA KOKINAKA@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
Most people like “free money.” Properly filling out forms is one way some are able to receive it to pay for higher education. But, filling out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid — commonly known as FAFSA — to potentially receive financial aid, can be a daunting task for some. That’s where College Goal Sunday comes into play. College Goal Sunday is a statewide volunteer program that is free for students and their parents to gain assistance in applying for financial aid for post-secondary education. Olympic College will host a College Goal Sunday event at its Bremerton campus from 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 28 in the science and technology building. The event is free and open to all students and families and registration is not necessary. Chris Swanson, career and college counselor at Bremerton High School, encourages all his students to attend the event to receive some extra help. “My hope is that families will look at this as a way to wrap up the process,” Swanson said. “We know there are kids and families that are in the beginning of the process, and [the event] is still a great resource.” The event will have financial aid professionals as well as other volunteers in attenance to help answer specific questions to FAFSA to broad questions on how to search for scholarships. In addition to the computer lab being available for use — FAFSA is commonly filled out online rather than a paper format — there will be several workshops available, said Alyson Rotter, event organizer. The workshops will include “financial aid 101” to get an overview on financial aid and student loans, “scholarships 101” to learn tips on applying, where to find them and when to apply and “the money game” where employees from Kitsap Credit Union will provide information on financial literacy and money management based on earning level and education. The workshops will repeat throughout the day and end at 3 p.m. The goal is not only for stu-

up with scholarships and students can then decide if they want to apply to them. Mary Beth Lambert, spokeswoman for washboard.org, agreed that there are many students who do not bother applying — or even searching — for scholarships because they don’t think they have a chance in receiving one. “That’s why College Goal Sunday is so important,” Lambert said. “There are lots of misconceptions out there, about how to pay for college and resources out there to support students.” Lambert said there are more than $30 million
worth of scholarships listed on www.thewashboard.org and they are not just for the “smart kids” or the ones who are “really good at sports.”

Fisher learned about scholarships from OC bulletin boards and by talking to school counselors — the best option to get started for someone in the dark.

seeking to follow the same path. Sadly, from the time they enter grade school through their postsecondary education, these students lose more educational ground and excel less frequently than their higher-income peers. Despite this tremendous loss in achievement, these remarkable young people are hidden from public view and absent from public policy debates. Instead of being recognized for their excellence and encouraged to streng then their achievement, high-achieving lower-income students enter what we call the “achievement trap.” Educators, policymakers, and the public assume they can fend for themselves when the facts show otherwise. There are millions of highachieving lower-income students in urban, suburban, and rural communities all across America. They reflect the racial, ethnic, and gender make up of our Nation.

Too late indeed Regarding methadone clinics in Bremerton, which first appeared online Jan. 24 and is on the front page of this print edition, it is indeed “too late” for an untold number of local residents who wanted and needed what for many years has been the “gold standard” of treatment of opioid dependence, and whose lives have been destroyed, and lost, to date. Strong endorsements of methadone maintenance has come from such objective and respected authorities as the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the Institute of Medicine and the World Health Organization. The tragedy will continue if the prediction is correct, that even with “the city’s new found ability to permit the clinics … no clinic operators [are] interested in Bremerton or the county.” How terribly sad for the addicts, their families and the entire community!

AINBRIDGE ISLAND — An old proverb says, “Those who wish to sing always find a song.”
And there will be plenty of songs to discover this Saturday at the annual Sing Out! event on Bainbridge Island. “It’s probably the most joyous day of the year on Bainbridge,” said Dian O’Brien, who has attended all
12 events and will be in attendance again this year. “When I moved away to Arizona for a while, I made sure to come back for Sing Out!” In its 13th year, the toe-tapping, hand-clapping, soulful gathering draws people from across Kitsap,
Seattle and even out of state. The two-part event includes a singing workshop in the afternoon and a performance by the workshop attendees and the Total Experience Gospel Choir in the evening. You decide how much to participate — if you wish to sing out, or simply let the songs wash over you. Either way, organizers say the event will be a memorable one. The event began when Bainbridge See SING OUT, Page 2

SING OUT! THIS WEEKEND
Continued from page 1 resident Jerry Elfendahl, who was touched by previous performances of the Total Experience Gospel Choir, got the idea to put together a one-day community choir. He hoped to build a singing group of all ages, faiths and ethnicities. “The music from the Total Experience Gospel Choir is something special and they impressed the heck out of me,” Elfendahl said. Rev. Pat Wright, choir founder and director, got on board with Elfendahl’s idea and brought gospel music to the county ever since. “The songs are oldschool gospel music from poor churches that didn’t have song books,” Elfendahl said. “But they were long on faith and hope and knew how to sing.” All the songs are taught by memory, in a simple to learn “call and response” style. No sheet music experience is necessary and each song falls in an easy range for the human voice. When people tell Wright they can’t sing, her response is, “You will before the day is over.” O’Brien added that participants can have a very quiet voice and still make a difference. Founded 38 years ago, the Total Experience Gospel Choir made a name for

The event is timed to honor the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and is held near his birthday. The songs performed are those that inspired Dr. King and included favorites such as “Amazing Grace.” This year the event will also pay tribute to Kitsap Superior Court Judge Ted Spearman, who died earlier

two years are ever alike. O’Brien remembered one year when Sing Out! was held at Island Church and the choir sang a song titled “Excellent.” It moved Wright to tears. “We just nailed it,” O’Brien said. “To see Pat, who is a stern task master, tear up was powerful. Then the pastor of the church asked us to sing the song again. It was just fabulous.”

Wright said it’s fun to see the transformation of the community choir during the four-hour workshop. “Everyone has a puzzled look on their face as the workshop begins. By the time we’ve been together a couple of hours, the look begins to melt. By the time we get to the end, everyone is comfortable and joyful,” she said.

On the word ‘like’ and supporting businesses
D
ear Erin, My husband, who is in his mid40s, has a bad habit of using the word “like” multiple times during a conversation. I find it annoying, but more than anything I worry how he comes across in the workplace. How do I help him realize he sounds like a teenager without hurting his feelings? — Like Totally Annoyed in Tracyton Dear Totally, Gag me with a spoon! Sounds like your husband is stuck in the 1980s. An important role of a spouse is to support and help his or her partner thrive as much as possible. But there is a fine line between being helpful and being overbearing. Make sure to treat the situation delicately and tenderly. As much as it may sting or cause him embarrassment at first, in the long run, your husband will be better off if you address the problem. And it’s best if he
ASK ERIN By ERIN JENNINGS hears it from you, rather than his co-workers. Approach the topic when he’s relaxed and not during an already stressful situation, such as while stuck in traffic or while watching a nail-biting sporting event. Gently tell him you’ve noticed he’s gotten into the habit of using “like” when talking. Don’t belittle or make fun of him, but rather explain to him you understand how easy it is to fall into the “like” rut and that you want to help him break the habit. Discuss using a simple
gesture such as tapping your chin, which will signal when he’s using “like” too frequently. Once he’s aware of the issue, it shouldn’t take him too long to change his ways and drop the Valley Girl language. To diffuse the issue even further, be prepared with a habit you would like help breaking and ask him for support. Follow up the conversation with a big hug and kiss and tell him how much you love him. ■

Dear Erin, We are in one of the worst recessions of my time. Unemployment is unbelievably high. Job options are low. So why did a local employer take away hours from full-time employees and give these hours to college students that came home for vacations? A good friend of mine is a waiter at a local restaurant. He’s in his 20s, living on his own, has monthly bills to pay and has had the same employer for four
years. This past summer, spring and now winter have been incredibly hard for him. The employer gives priority to returning college students that have worked there in the past. Which in turn means that the employees, who are there yearround and actually keep the establishment running, have to struggle while their hours are cut drastically. What gives? — Pushed Aside in Poulsbo Dear Pushed, Without more details, it is impossible to know the restaurant owner’s motivations for giving priority to returning college students. The employer could be making a difficult decision during tough economic times by utilizing temporary employees at a lower wage. Or the restaurant owner may simply be insensitive to the well-being of permanent employees. The heart of your letter though, brings up a question of loyalty. During this
hard economic time, it’s easy to forget about faithfulness and instead focus on the bottom line. Restaurant and retail owners are struggling to make end’s meet. Heck, everyone is. Dollars are being stretched so thin that you can practically see George’s backside. I heard of a situation during the holiday season that happened at a store in downtown Bainbridge. A customer rudely announced at a busy shop that instead of purchasing an item from the store, she was going to buy the item online in order to shave a few dollars off the price. She said this while standing in the warm and comfortable boutique, where she was sipping the hot cider provided by the shop. Where was her loyalty? Not to mention, manners? No economist or Magic 8 Ball can clearly predict what is going to happen. But if we as a community can hold together and sup-
port each other when we can, we will come out the other side a stronger, more vibrant place. This includes employers being considerate of their employees, as well as community members spending their dollars locally. When in doubt, ask yourself, “How would I feel if XYZ Establishment closed its doors?” If you answer “sad,” “disappointed” and “inconvenienced,” then make a point to seek out local products and services. And the next time I ask my trusty spherical guide, “Will the economy greatly improve in 2012?” hopefully the Magic 8 Ball answer will be “Signs Point to Yes.” What have you done to support local businesses while watching your pennies?

Walla Walla Vintners continues to evolve BY ANDY PERDUE AND ERIC DEGERMAN
Wine Press Northwest
F
ew images of Pacific Northwest wine country are as iconic as the red-roofed barn just off Mill Creek Road in Walla Walla. And those who taste the wines from Myles Anderson and Gordy Venneri have found their way back since Walla Walla Vintners was bonded in 1995. The success of their winemaking talents, blended with friendship, prompted them to hire Bill von Metzger in 2002. “As Walla Walla Vintners grew in that time period, we found that it was too much to run the business, market the wine and produce the wine,” Venneri said. “Hiring Bill allowed Myles and I to focus more time and energy with our customers and without compromising on the quality of our wine. It has been a good fit for us.” Venneri — a certified public accountant — made sure bringing on another winemaker would pencil out. Anderson, founding director of the renowned Walla Walla Community College viticulture and enology program, handpicked vonMetzger while still a student. The Colorado native has helped Walla Walla Vintners double its annual production in the past decade, growing from 2,500 cases to 5,000 cases. “We worked with Bill on the Walla Walla Vintners style of making wine,” Venneri said. VonMetzger described the Walla Walla Vintners style as “approachable young, but in the back of my mind and in my heart, we also want to make the wines that will stand up for 10-12 years.” Each year, the lineup includes two bottlings of Cabernet Sauvignon, a Walla Walla Valley Merlot, a Columbia Valley Cabernet Franc, a Syrah, two bottlings of Malbec, the blend called Cuvée and a Super Tuscan-style blend. Those looking for white
Bill von Metzger helped Walla Walla Vintners double its annual production in the past decade, growing from 2,500 cases to 5,000 cases. Wine Press Northwest wines or dessert bottlings will leave Walla Walla Vintners disappointed because they don’t make them. Walla Walla Vintners will be pouring Feb. 27 with other Walla Walla wineries at Pure Space in Portland and again March 12 at Sodo Park in Seattle. Walla Walla Vintners’ wines are available throughout the Northwest. Check with your favorite wine merchant for the wines we’ve reviewed here. ■ Walla Walla Vintners 2009 Merlot, Walla Walla Valley, $28. Aromas of black raspberry, blueberry, cherries, chocolate, lavender and smoke give way to dried cherry flavors, backed by black currant, caramel and tar combine for a yummy and opulent Merlot. While the tannins are bold, there’s plenty of fruit and acidity to provide support. ■ Walla Walla Vintners 2009 Cabernet Franc, Columbia Valley, $28. The nose is rich with blueberry, Marionberry, cherry, cracked black pepper, black olive and porcini mushroom earthiness. There’s even more richness found in the flavors of dark cherry, vanilla bean, more pepper and chocolate lavender bar. The low oak, bright acidity and savory finish of tapenade brought thoughts of London broil or roasted pork. ■ Walla Walla Vintners 2009 Sangiovese, Columbia Valley, $24. This Italian-style red brings aromas of pie cherry, black
currant, epazote, graphite, tar and iron shavings. Flavors of dark fruit develop on the palate with dark plum, raspberry and smoky black cherry. There is plenty of structure as loganberry acidity laces the midpalate, yielding to a finish of gravelly tannins. Suggested pairings include eggplant Parmesan. ■ Walla Walla Vintners 2009 Pepper Bridge Vineyard Malbec, Walla Walla Valley, $32. The nose of this bold red carries hints of dusty Marionberry, black currant, cinnamon, beet juice and steak juice. Brambleberry flavors and acidity are followed by lots of licorice and horehound, sturdy tannins, lingering minerality and a gamey finish. ■ Walla Walla Vintners 2008 Bello Rosso, Columbia Valley, $32. Cabernet Sauvignon from is blended with Sangiovese to make a wine patterned after a Super Tuscan. The aromas hint at black currant, raspberry and Cherry Heering, backed by cocoa powder, white pepper, iron filings, mint, shoe leather and black tea. As a drink, it comes across with red currant, cranberry and lengthy cherry flavors, backed by more mint, moist earth, sturdy tannins and charming acidity. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest.

kitsapbooks Inspirational poetry book by Suquamish author
Friday, January 27, 2012 common sight struck deep meaning in her soul. She recalls walking along a dry riverbed and contemplating the variety of rocks, when a poem crept into her mind, and thus was born “It’s Just a Rock,” which celebrates uniqueness. After that first poem, she remembers being filled with ideas — all inspired by her faith, which, Baxter said, continues to be the source of the neverending flow of her poetry. After writing for several years, she showed one of her first poems to her father. It was written to and about him. Baxter recalls her touching tribute to her stalwart father brought him to tears. After reading more of her poems, he made her promise to share her gift by being published. According to the publisher, the simple beauty and powerful insight of each poem is enhanced by the author’s photography, which gives additional insight into the origins of the emotions that inspired each poem.
Baxter hopes that in sharing her work, readers will pause to reflect on the world around us and share in her feelings of nature’s beauty and human love.

Morton’s neuroma is a thickening of nerve tissue in the toes. This enlarged nerve usually grows in the web between the third and fourth toes. The reason the nerve enlarges has not been determined. People with Morton’s neuroma often experience shooting pains that extend into the toe next to the neuroma. An x-ray should be taken to ensure there is not a fracture. The pain of neuroma becomes more severe with strenuous activity or when wearing shoes that are too tight in the toe area. Treatment of this condition usually starts with trying to decrease the pain in the area of growth. In most cases, initial treatment consists of padding and taping to disperse weight away from the neuroma. New patients welcome and seen on the same day. Early & late appointments available. Most insurances accepted.
