Vets come together at stand down

Veterans line up at the Sheridan Community Center in Bremerton Saturday morning to enter the biannual Stand Down which provides access to services and benefits to those in need as well as a central gathering point for area veterans. By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
More than 170 veterans poured into Bremerton’s Sheridan Community Center Saturday for a county-wide Stand Down for Veterans to hook up with free services ranging from legal aid to haircuts to mortgage assistance. Some veterans came to hang out with familiar faces and grab a bite for lunch, while others sought housing help or some new clothes. The stand down was put together by the Kitsap Area Veterans Alliance (KAVA), a grass roots organization made up of vets from around the county, which is chaired by Dean Hearing, one of the founding members of KAVA. Hearing said that stand downs are great opportunities to connect with vets who haven’t yet made their way into the system. “They may not join a service organization, but if they see a flier (for a stand down) at their church or somewhere else, they might come and see somebody

Veteran services officers from area agencies and organizations work to enroll veterans in the Veterans Administration healthcare system. here that can help them,” Hearing said. “You just might see a vet whose on the bus looking at the newspaper who sees an ad about the stand down who says, ‘Oh, I should go maybe get some help with this or that or even just connect
with another veteran.” Sometimes, Hearing said, vets that make their way to a stand down for the first time need the most help. See STAND DOWN, A10
The overall crime rates for both the City of Bremerton and Kitsap County were up slightly in 2011, according to a newly released report from the Washington Association of Sheriff’s and Police Chiefs. According to the report, the 2011 overall crime rate went up 5.3 percent in the city and it was up 3.8 percent in the county. The city’s violent crime rate was down 13.8 percent, but property crime saw a 6.4 percent increase. As an example of the property crime increase, motor vehicle thefts went from 109 in 2010 to 185 in 2011, a 69.7 percent increase. Forcible rapes in the city went from 52 in 2010 to 43 in 2011 (down 17.3 percent) and aggravated assaults went from 161 to 146 (down 9.3 percent). Robberies, meanwhile, saw a six-percent increase from 50 in 2010 to 53 in 2011. A call for comment to Bremerton Police Department Lt. Pete Fisher was not returned. At the county-wide level, the violent crime rate went down 30.8 percent in 2011. From 2010 to 2011, forcible rapes went from 95 to 65 (-31.6 percent), robberies dropped from 60 to 52 (-13.3 percent) and aggravated assaults decreased from 472 to 323 (-31.6 percent). Scott Wilson, a Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office Deputy and spokesman, said that the reasons for the increase in violence are difficult, if not impossible, to pin down precisely. “Figures like this can be deceiving. Part of the HOMELESS, A8 is problemSeewith statistics
everyone wants to tag on a reason why and we can only theorize,” Wilson said. “Without concrete, scientific evidence, we’re just speculating.” But Wilson said that the consumption of alcohol, especially by individuals between the ages of 18 and 21, certainly plays a role in fueling violence. “A lot of the violent crime we’ve dealt with in the past has been related to incidents involving alcohol,” Wilson said. The county’s property crime rate, meanwhile, increased by 6.4 percent in 2011. Burglaries were up 26.8 percent, from 1,035 to 1,312, and motor vehicle thefts were up 45.6 percent, from 206 to 300. “With regards to dramatic increases in property crime, it’s pretty much a forgone conclusion among law enforcement who are experiencing these trends that it’s directly related to the economy,” Wilson said. A down economy doesn’t just affect criminal behavior and tendencies, Wilson added, it also has an impact on policing itself. “Part of reason for property crime increases, and I hate to say this, is lack of police presence,” Wilson said. “Our resources are dwindling because of the economy. We don’t have those officers during the day and, more importantly, at night that are looking for suspicious activity so burglary attempts are going to be much higher. Criminals are of the mindset that, ‘I’m gonna take my chances because the cops just aren’t there.’ “ Wilson also noted that while county meth labs See CRIME, A8

Teens flee wreck, abandon injured 14-year-old girl kmoore@soundpublishing.com
A pair of young Bremerton men, both 18, fled the scene of a May 5 early morning wreck near the intersection of Northlake Way and Seabeck Highway, abandoning an injured 14-year-old girl in the backseat, according to the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office. Scott Wilson, Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office Deputy and spokesman, said that alcohol appears to have been a factor in the 3:56 a.m. wreck. He said that the driver and his front-seat passenger could face hit-and-run, driving under the influence and vehicular assault charges. Deputies caught up with the two teenagers when they later sought medical aid for themselves. However, Wilson said, proving the DUI charge could be difficult since so much time had elapsed between when officers found them and the time the wreck occurred. Ultimately, Wilson
added, prosecutors will have to make those charging decisions based on the ongoing investigation into the wreck. According to Wilson, a 2004 Chevrolet Blazer was speeding northbound on Northlake Way when it missed the curve to the left where the road forks into into Seabeck Highway NW. The curve warning sign recommends a speed of 25 mph. Wilson said that due to the vehicle’s speed, the Blazer was unable to stay on the road. The SUV left the road to the right onto the shoulder and across a side road of Seabeck Highway Spur Road, leaving the road and crashing through brush. The SUV stopped after striking several large trees and becoming wedged between them. “The driver and the passenger left the vehicle and the scene, leaving the 14-year-old girl trapped in the Blazer, failing to render assistance or summon aid for her,” Wilson

Approximately 50,000 gallons of raw sewage spilled into the Port Washington Narrows beginning May 6, after a sewer line failure near Marlow Avenue northwest of the Manette Bridge in East Bremerton. Bremerton Utilities Operation Manager Wayne Hamilton said a private citizen called 911 at about 11:30 a.m. Sunday morning after noticing the leak. Dispatchers, in turn, contacted utility standby crews who worked on unplugging the failed line for about five hours. “They thought they had unplugged it before the tide came in and covered the manholes,” Hamilton said. “They came in Monday and reported it to me. I notified the health district and Department of Ecology as soon as they notified me. We then did some further investigation and found it was still plugged.” The Kitsap Public Health District on Monday issued a four-day no contact advisory for the waterway between Point Herron and Tracyton. During the advisory, which See SEWAGE, A12
was expected to be lifted at some point today. The public is advised to avoid contact with the water and not harvest shellfish. Drinking water was not affected by the sewage leak, according to officials. City utility crews, using a jet vac that pumps water at 2,000 pounds per-squareinch, were finally able to unplug the pipe at about noon Tuesday, Hamilton said. The cause of the plug, though, was never determined and could have been grease, sludge or some unknown object. Bremerton Public Works Director Katy Allen said that the pipe failure occurred in an unusual area. “We have a hot list we use in Bremerton for sewers that are vulnerable to plugging because of pressure problems,

Bremerton shine IN OUR OPINION
The City of Bremerton shined last weekend. Yes, the sun had much to do with it, but more so the people working behind the scenes in a few key parts of the community made Saturday the kind of bright that will continue to shine for weeks. The countywide veterans’ Stand Down and the Charleston Business Association’s Cinco De Mayo celebration represent grass roots efforts put forth by caring people seeking to serve their own community. In doing so, groups such as the Kitsap Area Veterans Alliance and the Charleston Business Association make the entire city a better place to live for everyone else, including the tens of thousands of residents that did not directly benefit or attend the Saturday events. The more often that the residents and smaller organized groups with legitimate connections to the reality of life in Bremerton and Central Kitsap (as opposed to those looking down from the 6th floor of the Norm Dicks Government Center or the hill-top perch of county government) celebrate all groups living in the community, with the art and culture of themselves in the case of Callow Avenue’s Hispanic population and businesses and basic services and dignity provided in the veteran’s community, the more the community betters itself. Though the events were different in size and focus they served two growing segments of the population. The stand down served about 170 veterans in need with the help of about two dozen volunteers, but the event lifts all 38,000 veterans living in the county. The Cinco De Mayo street celebration drew more than 1,000 people from many backgrounds, but drew attention to some of the life and culture that has come with the growing Hispanic and Latino population – the second largest racial demographic in the city. Both events changed the way the city can be viewed by itself as much as the outside world.

What is needed is for each city venue to be discussed, researched and carefully decided on an individual basis. Throwing down a blanket city-wide change to simply save council time opens a door of potential logistical, operational and financial problems and issues that could and should be avoided if it only takes putting a little more time and thought into each decision.

Our nurses, highly trained in symptom management and palliative as opposed to curative treatment, are committed advocates for dignity, compassion and comfort at the end of life. For more than 32 years, Hospice of Kitsap County nurses have lived up to the Nightingale Pledge and sought to elevate the standards of their profession. While we appreciate our nursing staff every day, we would like to take this opportunity to publicly recognize all they do. Each year our nurses provide more than 45,000 hours of patient care to people in our community coping with a life-limiting illness. Their compassion and respect for the needs of

in raising your grandchildren? “My wife and I took on grandparenting responsibilities in 1995 when our daughter became unable to care for her daughter due to drug use. After many treatment programs, she found a second husband who seemed to be a good match. Unfortunately, our daughter and her new husband were both predisposed to drugs, but two more grandchildren were brought into the world. In 2003, both these children came to live with us when their father dropped them off at our doorstep with their belongings and asked us to care for them. They have been with us ever since. “Several challenges immediately came to bear. First and foremost is gain legal custody, something that proved to be very expensive and complicated. The next, gain the trust of the children. It requires time and much love.”
What have been some of the blessings? “Knowing that you are making a difference in the lives of your grandchildren is a major blessing. Seeing them improve and grow is a blessing unto itself, even though there are times when your anger at what their parents did to them rages within you.” If you were giving counsel to a couple facing the prospect of raising a grandchildren, what would you say? “I know many other grandparents are caught with the need to consider raising their grandchildren. Some things to consider involve: obtaining legal custody, having the finances necessary, having a home with adequate space, having the health and energy needed to raise active children, and most importantly having the love, devotion, and desire to raise them. Like raising your own children, having

the capacity to raise a second family can be extremely taxing. You will often reflect on how you came to be in this position, but seeing the opportunity you are giving your grandchildren is the greatest joy one can have.” What are some meaningful ways friends and family can be supportive and encouraging? “We have been blessed with many community individuals who have acted as mentors and coaches. They often take the children out for events or include them in family activities, which gives them a greater sense of family rather than aging grandparents who are physically and financially strapped.” I hope this interview with my friends has been informative and instructive. Obviously, with them there has been much pain mixed in with the joy of raising grandchildren. However, let these final words from a friend be a source of encouragement. “Grandparenting has great rewards as you see your grandchildren grow into adulthood with futures that could have been destroyed under other circumstances.”

are few and far between these days, a large amount of meth is making it’s way up the coast from Mexico through California and Oregon to Washington. “The effort to bring those drugs up form the south is driving the cost up and the people who buy these drugs to sell or use for themselves is what is driving up the property crime, for the most part,” Wilson said. One of the best ways to combat property crime with fewer officers on the street, Wilson said, is for area residents to remain alert and report criminal

activity. “What do we know is that we all know a little bit of something,” Wilson said. “Let’s put the puzzle together. Sometimes it takes just one tiny piece of that puzzle for things to come together and wow, next thing you know arrests start happening.” In the meantime, Wilson asked that citizens continue to support local police officers and deputies and remain patient. “My input to this (report) is, have faith in your first responders,” Wilson said. “They are doing the best job they can with the resources available. When it comes to certain typse of crime, we have to triage.”

“It’s actually a lot of water,” she said. I opened the basement door, peered down the stairs, and saw a laundry basket float past. I pushed the door closed again. No. I would just pretend this hadn’t happened. But, I couldn’t. One of the most tiring aspects of having a spouse deployed is being responsible for everything. There is no one to take over when you’ve hit your limit, no one to say, “Let me handle this.” I put on my L.L. Bean boots and walked down the
creaking basement stairs. There were at least three inches of water wall-to-wall in the basement. Pingpong balls bobbed up and down as they floated past. Books were saturated beneath the surface, stuck to the floor like an anchor. Our life-size, cardboard Darth Vadar was floating on its back. I ran back up the stairs, closed the door and cried. I asked myself several times, “Do we really need the basement or anything in it? Can’t I just bolt the door closed and forget it?” I got on Facebook to see if Dustin was online. Luckily for me (not necessarily for him), he was. I pounded out instant messages one after
Friday, May 11, 2012
another. I was frantic. And poor Dustin, halfway across the world, was helpless. Or was he? Within 30 minutes, people started showing up at my door. First was a friend Marion, who brought her husband and a sump pump. “When someone is in trouble, we can never assume other people will take care of it,” she said. Then she told me to sit down and let them handle it. Next, Dave from the Military Family Assistance Center came. Through the miracles of modern communication, Dustin had gotten in touch with his former command here in the states and told them what was happen-
ing. (Not so “helpless” after all.) But what Dave wanted to know was why I hadn’t called the Military Family Assistance Center myself: “Don’t you have that magnet with emergency numbers on it? We give it to all military families.” I didn’t know how to tell Dave that (1) my first reaction of choice was to cry about the basement, not make phone calls, and (2) I had probably thrown away the magnet. I never thought I’d need it. Oops. My friend Shelley came next. She brought contractorgrade trash bags, and, more importantly, left with my children and kept them until 8 p.m. People from Dustin’s former command came soon after, and that’s when I got the bad news: it wasn’t just water in the basement. It was sewer water. You know those scenes in movies where someone opens their mouth real wide to scream, and you can see the thing hanging down at the back of their throat, and then the scream (and the camera) pans out to the street, then the city, then the state, and then all the way up to satellites on the moon? Yeah, my reaction was kind of like that. And the water was rising. Carpets were floating. Furniture was ruined. I had new sympathy for anyone who has ever experienced a flood in their home. It is a helpless feeling. By 7 p.m., however, all the water was out of the basement. Friends and neighbors brought de-humidifiers and fans. The next morning, Dave from Military Family Assistance and people from Dustin’s former command came to help me mop and bleach the floors. Still, I wanted to bathe in anti-bacterial soap. Now, here’s where I’d like to clap my hands and say, “I handled it after all.” But the truth is, I couldn’t have gotten through Monday and Tuesday without the abovementioned crew of friends, neighbors and military-support services. It’s true what they say, “When it rains, you find out who your friends are,” or something like that. On Wednesday, Dave brought me a new magnet with emergency phone numbers. It is on our refrigerator. I hope I don’t need it again. On Thursday, I went out on the front porch and nailed those legs back onto the broken bench.

“For some reason, by the time they get out of the service, they don’t need anybody,” Hearing said. “And, if they’re not doing well, they don’t want to tell anybody. So, when they come to see a Veterans Service Organization, they’re in real trouble. By the time they come see us, we can help.” All of the vets that came, regardless of their reasons for being there, were encouraged to sign up for Veterans Administration health benefits to ensure a more robust system in Kitsap County for everyone that has served in a uniform. “One of our goals that we wanted to accomplish today was to encourage as many as possible to enroll in the VA health system,” said Leif Bentsen of the Kitsap County Veterans Assistance Program. “There are still things that those with even private coverage can get through the VA.” Bentsen noted that he enrolled for VA healthcare last year and “got things I’m not covered by in Medicare.” Bentsen said that there was a line of about 75 to 100 veterans before the community center doors were opened up at 9 a.m. The latest event marked the ninth countywide stand down

Smith also acknowledged getting his hair cut. “Yeah, I got my hair cut. She thinks it looks okay,” he added while nodding toward his wife. Dianna Dye, who does hair and nails at the Coral Reef Salon in Port Orchard, volunteered to work at the stand down and is the one who cut Smith’s hair. “It really is the most fun event I do.

Silverdale Library closes book sales, changes fundraising by KATE WHITTLE kwhittle@soundpublishing.com
Space is getting tight at the Silverdale branch of the Kitsap Regional Library, so fundraisers are looking for another way to hold their book sales. The non profit Friends of the Library raises between $10,000 and $12,000 annually by selling books a few times a month out of the Hess Meeting Room, but the growth in children’s programming has pushed the sales out of the space, said Dave Bonnett, co-chair of
the Silverdale Friends of the Library. “A lot of kids use this library because there’s not too much else for kids to do in Silverdale,” Bonnett said. Since the library recently hired a full-time youth service librarian, it has hosted more reading and activity groups for children and teens, such as toddler story time and an anime group. The Friends will host a final special sale May 12 from 1 to 4 p.m., and $5 will buy as many books as fits in a grocery bag. After, Bonnett said the

Friends might switch to occasional sales throughout the year or offer more books on the honor system in the foyer. Bonnett said the 4,200-square-foot building dates back to World War II, when it served as a chaplain’s office. Later, it was moved to its current location and expanded to include the Hess Room. The Friends save part of their donations for a fund to someday build a new library. “We want to be sure to have all the accoutrements normal, modern libraries have,” Bonnett said. The Silverdale library is small in scale but large in circulation, said Jeff Brody, Kitsap Regional Library director of community relations. “Cozy is one way to put it,” Brody said.

Bremerton students learn financial skills by KATE WHITTLE kwhittle@soundpublishing.com
Bremerton High School’s financial literacy class might pay off for some of its students. Bremerton High School students earned top scores in this year’s National Financial Capability Challenge, a test created by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Financial Literacy teacher Leah Zimmer said 22 of her students, out of 88, scored in the top 20 percent nationally on the web quiz that tests knowledge on saving, investing and spending. The high scores put the financial class in the running for 20 $1,000 scholarships, Zimmer said. The Charles Schwab Foundationfunded scholarships will be announced sometime in August. Assistant Principal Linda Hupka said she and Zimmer are considering proposing the school make finance courses a graduation requirement. “We’ve done surveys of students and they’re absolutely saying this is such a valuable class,” Hupka said. In Zimmer’s class, students start by learning the basics about balancing checkbooks and avoiding the trappings
of debt before moving into investing in and tracking the stock market. Zimmer sees teenagers get interested in seeing ways to make money grow. “It’s a stretch to get students to think about retiring, but when they use these financial calculators, they get excited,” Zimmer said. One of her students already took his new knowledge to the bank. Graduating senior Hector Holguin has worked at Dairy Queen since August and, after learning about investing, opened a Roth Individual Retirement Arrangement and a money market account. Holguin estimates he’s saved about $1,400 so far. “It just seemed the thing to do, to open it now while I’m still young and let the money grow,” Holguin said. He recommends teens take a financial literacy class if it’s available, and open a savings account. “If a new savings account comes available and it has a higher APR, I’d tell them to switch,” Holguin said. His teacher is impressed. “A lot of adults don’t know what a Roth IRA is,” Zimmer said. “As a teacher, it’s like, wow.”

Closure dates announced for Bremerton sewer work
City to formalize ‘complete streets’ Classification could bring more federal dollars for streets
By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
The City of Bremerton has announced a construction schedule for replacing a downtown sewer line this summer. Stan Palmer Construction, the main contractor for the $2.3 million Crosstown Sewer Pipeline Project, which is about $1 million less than the city originally expected the work to cost, is planning to close Naval Avenue between 11th Street and 13th Street to thru-traffic starting May 15. They also propose closing 11th Street between Montgomery and Naval Avenue from June 11 to August 3 for installation of a new 36-inch pipe. Bremerton Public Works Director Katy Allen said that one of the biggest impacts from the project will be to commuters trying to make it to and from work. Area residents, she said, are already bracing for the work and figuring out ways to deal with it. The crosstown pipeline conveys all the sewage from East Bremerton and much of West Bremerton to the city’s treatment plant. City engineer Ned Leever said that the line is arguably the most important one in the city. Leever has told the city council that city staff will continue to reach out to area residents, business and others prior to and during construction. The crosstown sewer line has failed

three separate times between 2007 and 2010 during heavy rainfall events, resulting in sanitary sewer overflow events. The project includes the installation of some 2,600 feet of 36-inch diameter high density polyethylene pipe that is larger in diameter and will allow more flow and the material is far more resis-
tant to the corrosive effects of wastewater. Additionally, approximately 866 feet of the existing pipe will be rehabilitated using Cure-In-Place-Pipe technology. Finally, the concrete surge chamber at the intersection of 13th Street and Naval Avenue will be replaced with a HDPE manhole.
When it comes to securing federal money for local streets, Bremerton city planners have long thought about bicyclists, pedestrians, buses and cars, according to City Engineer Gunnar Fridriksson. Today, that kind of thinking is commonly described as a “complete streets” approach. As such, Bremerton city councilors are considering a new ordinance to make the complete streets approach official. “Our current method is to consider complete streets, anyway,” Fridriksson said. “This formalizes that and allows us to go after federal money for complete streets. In other words, we can check the little box that says, ‘Yes, we have a complete streets program.’” As a result, when it comes to road planning, the City of Bremerton isn’t
changing lanes so much as it is signaling to everyone else what lane its already in. According to a staff report on the proposed ordinance change, “A street is complete if it provides for many transportation alternatives to the automobile, including mass transit, bikes, walkers and disabled persons moving in any one of the options available today. The paradigm is changing from ‘moving cars quickly’ to providing safe mobility for all modes.” City staffers say that there will be no financial cost associated with the new rule. “Fiscal impacts would be assessed when a specific project is developed and designed based on the scope of the project and the individual elements associated with the project,” a staff report states.

Bremerton School District providing mental health services to more students by KATE WHITTLE kwhittle@soundpublishing.com
The Bremerton School District is expanding therapy programs to support children with mental health issues. The district approved Thursday contracts to approve a second year of collabora-
tion between Kitsap Mental Health Services and Armin Jahr Elementary, and extend the program to Mountain View Middle School. Bremerton School District spokeswoman Patty Glaser said the Kitsap Mental Health staff weren’t involved with the emergency coun-
said Beth Friedman-Darner, associate director of Kitsap Mental Health. Friedman-Darner said Kitsap Mental Health staff work with school psychologists and teachers to identify kids dealing with conditions autism, depression, anxiety and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and meet with them during the school day to help transition them into the mainstream classroom. About 10 students are bused in from around the district to Armin Jahr. “The very unique thing about the Armin Jahr program is as they improve, they’re transferred back to
seling support after the Feb. 22 shooting of 8-year-old Amina Kocer-Bowman. The Olympic Education Service District provided a crisis support team for students and staff. The Armin Jahr mental health program is finishing a successful pilot year,

SEWAGE
To get an idea for the magnitude of the leak, consider that it would take roughly five 15-by-30 foot above ground oval pools, with an average depth of 3 feet 8 inches, to hold 50,000 gallons of water. When first asked, Hamilton, who has worked in Bremerton
for 30 years, said he couldn’t “remember the last time we had a spill in the Narrows.” After some further research, he said that the last time a regular sewer line failed and sewage leaked into saltwater was April 19, 2005, when a lateral connection to a residence leaked 300 gallons into Oyster Bay. In addition, he said an Oyster Bay lift station
leaked about 8,000 gallons into Oyster Bay June 5, 2008, and about 20 to 50 gallons Jan. 15, 2009. “Those are the only ones on record reported to the health district and Ecology that went into the receiving waters,” Hamilton added. More recently, though, a sewer line failed at Kitsap Lake.

grease or other reasons,” she said. “This line is not on our hot list. It’s not one that tends to plug up.”
DENTAL HEALTH TIPS! The wisdom teeth (the last of the permanent teeth) usually begin to erupt -pushing their way through the gums- between the ages of 17 and 21 years. Because they are so far back in the mouth, third molars are often not needed for chewing and are difficult to keep clean. Your dentist may recommend their Dr. Dawn Divano removal to prevent potential complications.

the mainstream program,” Friedman-Darner said. As Armin Jahr renews for next year, Mountain View Middle School will be joining the program. Bremerton School District spokeswoman Patty Glaser said school district staff saw children at Mountain View Middle School who needed therapy, too. The Bremerton School District contracts with Kitsap Mental Health for $230,000 for the year’s services, which covers the cost of transportation and three full-time psychology staff at Armin Jahr. Adding Mountain View to the program will cost the dis-
trict an additional $143,000 for the 2012 to 2013 school year, according to the agreement document. The idea for the Armin Jahr kid’s mental health program rose from the Madrona Day Treatment School, FriedmanDarner said. About 12 children who need more intensive help than schools can provide are bused to Kitsap Mental Health during school hours. Staff like the Armin Jahr elementary program because students can get to feel less isolated from their school, Friedman-Darner said.
All filing fees for salaried positions are due at the time of filing and are nonrefundable. Filing fees are not charged for non-salaried positions. Candidates may also submit their filings by mail. Filing fees for candidates who file by mail are due by 5 p.m. on May 18. Prospective candidates

“We’ve struggled with this for a decade or better,” Allen noted of the sewer line at the lake. The most recent failure occurred April 18 when approximately 1,000 gallons of untreated human waste were released into Kitsap Lake, which has seen hordes of fishermen daily since then. That sewage release was caused by a blocked sewer line that backed up into the basement of a private home
located near the shoreline. The sewage flowed out of the house, across the yard, and into the lake, according to city officials. “A hairball and a piece of wood was stuck in the line for decades and had caused problems,” Allen said. “They worked all weekend and cleaned and cleaned and cleaned and finally got a 2x4 out of there that was black and they figure had been there for 30 years.”

Central Kitsap School District honors teachers by KATE WHITTLE kwhittle@soundpublishing.com
Olympic High School instructor and Teacher of the Year Brandon Brown stands up and teaches technology courses in the same classroom he once sat at a desk in and learned computer drafting. On a Friday morning, about 20 students tromped into Brown’s computer lab for their digital drafting class. “All right, listen up, we’re going to start working,” Brown said. Brown projected a digitally rendered picture of an apple on the screen, and took the class through the steps to create their own using the Autodesk 3ds Max Design program. When the lesson is finished, Brown walks between desks, talking to students who need extra help. Junior Brandon Patti said the class has been tough but fun. “When I first started, my stuff sucked,” Patti said. Senior Nick Roberts said it’s his second year taking Brown’s class, and he likes his teacher’s style. “He explains it in a way that makes sense,” Roberts said. Brown’s workday includes teaching drafting, coaching a robotics team and serving as the school’s technology coordinator. Nationa l Teacher Appreciation Week is May 7 to 11, and in honor of the week, Central Kitsap School District staff say many of their teachers are using technology in innovative ways to keep students of all ages engaged. At C ot tonwood Elementary, fourthgrade literacy teacher Thomasina Rogers is the Silverdale Chamber of Commerce Innovation in Teaching winner for 20112012. “She brings concepts relevant to real life,” said Principal Paul Nash. On a rainy afternoon,
Rogers announced group reading time, and 23 children f lopped onto the floor around her. Rogers switched on the microphone clipped to her collar, which amplified her voice through the classroom, and opened her Nook e-reader and pulled up “The Lost Hero,” a fantasy series. “Now, can anyone raise their hand and let us know where we were last?” Rogers asked. After group reading time, she directs the children to find a quiet spot and read whatever they like to themselves. Rogers has bachelor’s degrees in elementary education and behavioral science, and a master’s degree in education administration. Rogers sees the fourth grade as a crucial point in encouraging kids to learn to independently read for fun. “After fourth grade, 80 percent of what they read is expository nonfiction,” Rogers said. She’s found “book share,” a part of class when students talk to each other about what books they’re reading, is a great way for kids to reinforce and motivate each other. Rogers also wants to provide her students, about a third of whom are on free or reduced lunch, with experiences they might not get otherwise. She reads to them using her personal Nook so they can be familiar with a new device. “But I want to make sure they know if they don’t have those things, that’s okay, too,” she said. One of the biggest challenges she and other teachers face is encouraging students to grow and learn in a time when the national economy is in decline. “Every teacher is finding creative ways to meet the needs of all learners, be judicious with resources, and not let kids feel bad,” she said.

Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent said that the city did “miraculously well” in conserving water throughout the past month. The City of Bremerton placed first in Washington State and third out of more than 100 other medium-sized western cities in the National Mayor’s Conservation Challenge. The contest ran through the month of April with the goal to improve the environment using an online outreach campaign to engage citizens about their water conservation efforts. “I applaud the Bremerton
residents who took the online pledge to reduce water and energy use at home,” Lent said. “This challenge was a fun opportunity to learn about water wise habits while engaging in a friendly competition with other cities. We appreciate that residents responded so overwhelmingly to make this contest a success for Bremerton.” Lent, city staff, and other community groups worked diligently encouraging residents to take the online pledge at www.mywaterpledge.com and show their commitment to conserving water, saving energy and reducing pollution. “The Conservation Challenge highlighted the

impact of each person’s water saving efforts,” said Water Resources Manager Kathleen Cahall. “Bremerton’s prize for participating in this contest is increased awareness about the importance of our water resources.” For the challenge, cities were divided into four regions and categorized by population. Participants in cities placing first in their category were eligible to win prizes. Most importantly, Lent and Cahall noted, is the fact that all participants will see results based on simple actions to save water and energy. “Water consumption is something we all take for granted,” Lent said. “No one seems to think we need to worry about water, but we really need to check our consumption.” And the mayor’s call to participate in the contest offered a fun way to do just that. “Citizens really reacted to the challenge and that made it very fun,” Lent said. “I thought it was pretty impressive that everyone rallied the way they did.”

The Bremer ton Gasworks, a former coal gasification plant that operated in Bremerton from 1930 to 1963, was put on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s national list of highly contaminated sites this week. The Bremer ton Gasworks site is located a mile and a half west of downtown Bremerton, along the Port of Washington Narrows, between Thompson and Pennsylvania avenues. The EPA will manage the site under the Superfund cleanup program. The EPA says that sediments in the Port of Washington Narrows and soils and groundwater at Bremerton Gasworks are contaminated with polyaromatic hydrocarbons or PAHs
from tars associated with the gasification process, plus toxic metals and benzene. They are considered to be on of the most widely spread organic pollutants, which are known for their carcinogenic, mutagenic and teratogenic properties that result in health issues such as lower IQ, childhood asthma, low birth weight, premature delivery, and heart malformations. “C le a n i ng up Bremerton Gasworks will help us shut off one more source of industrial contamination that threatens Puget Sound,” said Dan Opalski, EPA Region 10 Superfund Director in Seattle. “Putting this site on our Superfund list will ensure this site gets cleaned up once and for all.” EPA, the Washington
State Depar tment of Ecology, Cascade Natural Gas and the U.S. Coast Guard have been involved in assessments of the site and an earlier beach cleanup. EPA officials say that contamination left on the site could still pollute the Washington Narrows and Puget Sound, an area used by the Suquamish Tribe as a subsistence fishery. EPA will work in close partnership with these agencies, the company, and the Suquamish Tribe to clean up the site, officials said. According to the EPA website, the local waterway is, “a part of Puget Sound designated a national priority as one of the nation’s great water bodies. Two species of federally listed endangered or threatened fish live near the site.”

Program meets at-risk youths’ overlooked needs ‘‘Support Our Students’ provides local teens with toiletries, personal care items BY MEGAN STEPHENSON Kitsap Week
S
ome North Kitsap students face a daily dilemma: gas or books? Baby formula or lab fees? Toilet paper or tuition? Although food banks and social programs have seen an increase in need and implore neighbors to donate a few cans of soup or dollars for bread for those hit hardest, another program is seeking to meet a different need: toiletries. “It’s amazing how many youth we have that are at risk and because we don’t see it, we assume it's not a problem,” said Meisha Rouser, a student at Leadership Kitsap and a co-founder of Support Our Students. The Support Our
Students campaign was inspired by the support Coffee Oasis received for its at-risk youth center in Poulsbo. Rouser said red donation bins are located all around Kitsap County for donations of basic needs that many take for granted: deodorant, feminine products, soap, shampoo, diapers, toothpaste and toothbrushes, toilet paper. The campaign organizers estimate there are more than 800 at-risk students who are homeless, live out of their cars, or just don’t have a consistent, safe place to “call home.” Rouser wants the community to be more aware of this number. “At-risk youth are very proud, they do not want people to know they’re couch surfing or having trouble at home,” Rouser said. “They only carry what they can in their backpacks.” Tom Jacobs, a member of SOS who also works with Olympic College’s Students in Need Group, added, “A lot of [students] don’t have jobs, they’re making decisions based on whether put

to decide whether go to school. They had $20 to put in their car or buy diapers,” Jacobs said. “We gave them some diapers, hope-
Hearty Peruvian bean soup with leeks and peppers BY LISA GARZA Gluten Free Foodies

’m in the mood for something hot and steamy! I want a big bowl of peppery Peruvian Pussac Punay Beans. Just a few of the perfect organic ingredients that I
picked up at the Farmers Market and the slow cooker is all that I need to make this meal. I am so happy I soaked my beans overnight. I usually like to soak them 12-24 hours and rinse them at least 2-3 times. I defrosted my home-

who came to us as a stray many months ago. It’s a mystery to us why he is still here. He is a friendly, active, and funny boy who gets along with most of the cats he’s met. He loves to be outdoor on our fenced in porches soaking up the sun. Sampson likes to bounce a toy down the stairs then run down and grab it to bounce it down again. He will toss around a toy in the air to entertain himself also. He will be hanging out at the Poulsbo Petco trying again to find a home of his own.

fully they spent the other [money] on gas.” Rouser and Jacobs launched SOS through their membership with Leader-
ship Kitsap, a nonprofit organization that offers a year-long educational program for community leaders. Every year, the leadership class breaks into several groups which develop community projects. “These people are fighting against all odds,” Jacobs said. “If we can just make one of those odds a little bit easier ... that’s how we brought up Support Our Students.” The campaign will continue until May 31, and bins can be found at Olympic College, North Kitsap schools, Bainbridge Island schools, grocery stores, businesses and churches. The collected items will be distributed through OC’s Students in Need Group, Coffee Oasis, Spectrum, and various food banks in the area.

made Organic Vegetable Kale Broth in a bowl with cool water for 30 minutes. Very little prep time and the slow cooker really does all the work. This recipe is gluten free and vegan. Ingredients
2 cups Zócalo Gourmet Pusssac Punay Beans, soaked for at least 12 hours 4 cups Organic Vegetable Kale Broth 2 leeks, chopped 1 red bell pepper, chopped 2 garlic cloves, chopped 1 tsp dried thyme 1 tsp Flor de Sal sea salt 1 tsp fresh ground black pepper 1 Aji Panca pepper, dried 1 Aji Amarillo pepper, dried Instructions
Put everything into your slow cooker. Cook for 6 hours on high and then 2-4 hours on low. A total of 8-10 hours, until the beans are tender. Ten simple and beautiful ingredients to make this meal. This hearty bean soup is so satisfying and flavorful, there’s no need to add other spices. The leeks are perfect with the organic broth that I made with kale. There is a little bit of a kick to this, 2 stars, just enough to warm you up from head to toe. Serve in a big bowl with a robust red wine!

D.P.M. Heel Spurs. Any medical term with the word “spur” in it sounds uncomfortable, especially if that spur is on the bottom of your foot. A heel spur is a bony growth on the bottom of the heel bone. It can produce pain when standing, walking or putting any other kind of pressure on the heel. It is caused by calcium deposits made because tissue on the bottom of the feet pulls away from the heel. The condition is more common in people with flat feet and high arches, and women are more likely to suffer from it than men because of the types of shoes women tend to wear. Your podiatrist can recommend treatment options, including but not limited to orthotics and/or surgery to alleviate discomfort from heel spurs.

Walla Walla winery’s Petite Sirah tops NW judging
T
he results of the Pacific Northwest’s largest wine competition say a lot about a grape variety that could well be perfect for Washington. During the first week of May, more than 1,000 wines from Washington, Oregon British Columbia and Idaho (as well as a handful from Montana, Alberta and even Saskatchewan) were judged blind by wine professionals at the Northwest Wine Summit, held at the historic Columbia Gorge Hotel in Hood River, Ore. The top wine was a Petite Sirah from Dusted Valley Vintners in Walla Walla. Chad Johnson and Corey Braunel — co-owners, cowinemakers and brothersin-law — are best known for their Syrahs, but they’ve recently shown deep affection for Petite Sirah, a related red wine grape. That their 2009 Petite Sirah captured best-in-show honors at the Northwest Wine Summit speaks loudly. We’ve tasted a number of superb Petite Sirahs from
NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN the Pacific Northwest, and this could help spur greater interest in the wine. We sure hope so. The Northwest Wine Summit has been run since its inception by Parks Redwine. Redwine (yes, that’s his real name) is a wine lover, collector, importer and writer. He became enamored with Northwest wines in the 1970s and runs the competition despite living clear across the country in Atlanta. The Northwest Wine Summit is a fascinating competition, one we’ve been associated with for more than a decade as judges and organizers. Redwine believes in giving every wine the best chance it can to show well. Thus, he has every wine judged twice: once by a panel of judges and once by an “audit” judge. If the panel,
More than 1,000 Northwest wines were judged blind by wine professionals at the Northwest Wine Summit, the first week of May in the Columbia Gorge Hotel. Courtesy Wne Press Northwest
for example, gives a wine a bronze medal or no award and the audit judge gives it a gold medal, that wine will be sent out to another group of judges. More than half the time when this happens, the wine will end up with a higher medal. Redwine also has a love for the region’s wine history. A couple of years ago, he created an award for the best Oregon Pinot Noir and
called it the Pioneers Award to honor those visionaries who came to Oregon to plant the red wine grape, such men as David Lett, Dick Erath, Dick Ponzi and David Adelsheim. This year, Redwine honored Bob Woehler, his longtime friend and fellow wine writer who died last summer, by naming the competition’s top Cabernet Sauvignon in his honor. The inaugural
winner was a Cab coming from the Oregon side of the Walla Walla Valley — a selection that undoubtedly would have pleased Bob. Here are the top winners in this year’s competition. All should be available through your favorite wine merchant or directly from the wineries. ■ Best in show: Dusted Valley Vintners 2009 Petite Sirah, Columbia Valley, $42. (Also won best Washington and best red wine). ■ Best white: L’Ecole No. 41 2011 Chenin Blanc, Columbia Valley, $14. ■ Best sparkling: Domaine Ste. Michelle NV Blanc de Blancs, Columbia Valley, $12. ■ Best rosé: Arrowleaf 2011 First Crush Rosé, Okanagan Valley, $15. ■ Best dessert: Koenig Vineyards 2010 Botrytis Single Berry Select Late Harvest Riesling, Snake River Valley, $30. (Also won best Idaho wine.) ■ Best ice wine: Mission Hill Family Estate 2010 Reserve Vidal Icewine,
Okanagan Valley, $50. (Also won best British Columbia wine.) ■ Best nongrape wine: Blue Mountain Cider Co. NV Peach Hard Apple Cider, Washington, $12. ■ Best spirit: It’s 5 O’Clock Somewhere Northwest Dry Gin, $41. ■ Best fortified wine: Field Stone Fruit Wines NV Raspberry, Alberta, $25. (Also won best Alberta wine.) ■ Pioneer Award for best Oregon Pinot Noir: Styring Vineyards 2009 Signature Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $35. ■ Bob Woehler Award for best Cabernet Sauvignon: Watermill Winery 2008 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, Walla Walla Valley, $35. (Also won best Oregon wine; the vineyards are in the Oregon portion of the Walla Walla Valley.) — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine.
