KITSAP ARTS & CRAFTS FESTIVAL JULY 27-29 “Boardwalk,” a watercolor by Gerald Dowell, has such detail and clarity that at first glance it can be mistaken for a photograph. And it was a third-
place winner. Imagine the other great art you’ll see at the 53rd annual Kitsap Arts & Crafts Festival July 27, 28 and 29 at Kingston’s Mike Wallace Park, next to the Kingston Ferry Terminal. The event showcases the best in art by local artists and raises money for scholarships for local high school graduates. The headline event at the festival is the Juried and Open Art Show and Student Art Show. More than
180 student, open and juried artworks were on display at the 2011 festival. Kitsap Arts & Crafts has helped keep arts education alive in local schools, which don’t often don’t have the funding to keep their own programs going. Kitsap Arts & Crafts, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, cultivates and promotes the arts in Kitsap County by awarding art scholarships to qualified students, supporting the Art Docent Program in
public elementary schools and producing the annual Arts & Crafts Festival, as well as presentation of awards to winning artists. These programs are supported by festival proceeds and by contributions. Since 1975, Kitsap Arts & Crafts has awarded 181 scholarships to local youths to help further their arts education. The program gives $2,000 annual scholarships with three additional renewals,

Garden tour to bloom in Manette neighborhood By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
The Manette neighborhood will become the stage for a 10-stop garden tour on Saturday when The Manette Neighborhood Coalition hosts their inaugural Edible Garden and Tour de Coop. The tour features money saving demonstrations in winter gardening, container gardening, growing fruitbearing trees and plants in small spaces and building and maintaining greenhouse and hoop houses and will also offer anyone interested in raising chickens a chance to tour multiple coops. Manette gardeners will open their gardens during the tour to offer advice on growing staples such as carrots, cabbage, broccoli, strawberries, bush beans, swiss chard, beets, raspberries and a host of other garden favorites. Tamara Smith and Patrick Watson will host a garden on the tour, and Smith, a board member on the coalition, said the idea had come from a similar event held by the Bremerton Urban Garden Society. She said she had enjoyed

County moves to save millions in health care costs By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Kitsap County is moving forward with plans to reign in the ever surging cost of employee health care and is looking to save millions of dollars. Commissioners Robert Gelder and Charlotte Garido approved a pair of measures this week that will audit county employees’ dependents to ensure they are actu-

The $21,000 eligibility audit could save as much as $200,000 and the move to self insurance could save $1 million in 2013 and as much as $12.5 million by 2018. Commissioner Josh Brown did not vote on the measures as he was out of town this week for the annual National Association of Counties meeting in Pittsburgh.
Gelder said that the moves are an attempt to “go down a path to bend the cost curve down for the county.” When asked why the county hadn’t done it sooner, Gelder said that it wasn’t a conversation the board was even having when he joined the panel. It is, though, something he’s been thinking about for years. “We started conversations toward end of last year,” he said. “There’s only so much

time and resources and this is just another one of those opportunities that the time is right to do it.” Gelder said that the move to self insurance will save millions, but won’t change much for employees when they actually seek services and treatment. The big changes are more about administration than they are about delivery. “Employees will experience no change in the way their current insurance plan ‘feels’ with regards to their selected health care provider,” said Bob Furuta, the county’s director of personnel and human services. “From the See HEALTH CARE, A10
Red tape. Regulations. Restrictions. All are small-business buzzwords as political campaigns address the job market, arguably voters’ greatest concern, as local and national elections approach in November. Calvin Goings, a former Pierce County Commissioner who now is an assistant associate administrator for the Small Business Administration, where President Barack Obama appointed him in 2009, told the Port Orchard Chamber of Commerce last week that the economy is moving in the right direction. Goings, a Democrat, cited 28 consecutive months of job increases as one reason behind the growth argument. But he also attributed the movement to decisions, some unpopular, made by President Obama, including the bailout that saved Chrysler and General Motors from the “real prospect of liquidation.” Though many derided that decision, Goings noted that GM has repaid its loan and returned as the world’s No. 1 automobile manufacturer. That is outside of the small-business realm, but Goings said it is an example of the progress that is occurring to improve the economy. The administration proposal to further improved the climate for a small businesses, less than 500 employees, and allow certain small busi-
nesses to forgo capital-gains taxes. Another benefit with the assistance of the SBA, helps companies recognize that 96 percent of the world’s population lives outside of the United States. Goings said the SBA assisted 5,500 small businesses make their first exports. “Small business is the backbone of this administration,” he said. “Supporting small business has been a hallmark of this administration.” In 2011, the SBA supported more than $30 billion in lending to more than 60,000 small businesses. He said less than 7 percent of those loans in Washington state fail. Goings said there are 1,300 Small Business Development centers nationally to assist “an entrepreneur writing their first business plan” to obtaining a loan. The nearest is the Washington State University-Bremerton Small Business Development Center.
KITSAP ECONOMIC CLIMATE
John Powers, executive director of the Kitsap Economic Development Alliance, said the makeup of this area is different from most because of the presence of the Department of Defense and Naval Base Kitsap, both of which are significant market drivers locally worth $1.5 annually.

gate open or was not supervising children properly, then you determine what the necessary steps are from there,” Case said. “The person who was supervising those children should have had her eyes on that child. They move like lightning at that age, but that’s not supposed to happen when you are supervising a child at a day care center. So, that’s one of the things we’ll look at, is the supervision of children.” While the state has received complaints over the years, none of them have earned a “founded” determination from DSHS, Case said. A call to the Daycare center’s manager seeking comment has not been returned. Attempts to reach the Bremerton Police Department for further comment were not immediately successful.

A 14-month-old girl found with a fractured skull and a bruised lung in the parking lot of the Chico Christian Daycare center on Wednesday was in satisfactory condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle late last week. Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Scott Wilson said it remains unclear how the toddler’s skull was fractured or how a lung was bruised. Chris Case, a spokesperson for the Washington State Department of Social & Health Services Children’s Administration, said that state officials from her office and others are still awaiting the results of a separate Bremerton Police Department investigation. “If you find someone was negligent and either left the

as a daycare since the early 70s, under a license from the state’s department of early learning. A man who had dropped off his own child at the day care discovered the injured child behind his pickup truck as he was preparing to back up Deputy Wilson said, but there’s no evidence that his vehicle actually struck the child. “The evidence does not indicate that the truck struck the child,” Wilson said. “So, was there another vehicle in the parking lot that could have knocked the child over and the driver didn’t see the child? We don’t know.” Authorities said the toddler escaped an enclosed play area while an employee was momentarily distracted. “When she refocused her full attention on the playground and did a head count she realized that she was one child short,” Wilson said. “She then headed for the slide, where she had last seen the little girl, and saw that the gate was open.” The childcare worker went to the parking lot and discov-
ered a man holding the child behind his pickup truck. According to the sheriff’s office, the man dropped off his son at around 10:20 a.m. and returned to his vehicle. Once inside his truck, he started the vehicle and put it in reverse when he heard the girl crying. Wilson said the man put the truck back into park and didn’t actually back up. He got out and found injured girl about the same time that the day care center employee came looking for the missing child. The man then drove off, Wilson said. The toddler’s mother eventually arrived at the day care and took her bruised and scraped child to Harrison Hospital, where medical authorities decided to transfer the girl to Harborview and called the police. Wilson said that the man who discovered the girl behind his truck returned to the day care center and cooperated with investigators. Wilson said the logical thing would have been for the man driving the pickup or someone at the daycare center to have called 911, but the extent of the girl’s injuries were not readily obvious. “At the time, they thought she only had scrapes and bruises and didn’t know there

9/11 Memorial delayed again By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
The completion date of the Kitsap County 9/11 Memorial has been pushed back a year and organizers said funding was the primary obstacle in completion of the project. Originally slated to be complete on Sept. 11, the project has a new goal of Sept. 11, 2013, and organiz-
ers are seeking help from the community to help finish the project. Margie Torbron, marketing and fundraising director for the memorial committee, said the entire estimated cost of the project is $360,000 of which $88,000 has been raised.

Silverdale incorporation KCFR welcomes new chief vote on hold, again. By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
By Patrick McDonough
pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
Plans to hold an August vote on the incorporation of Silverdale will now have wait until spring of 2013 or later. Citizens United for Silverdale hoped to hold the vote during the Aug. 7 primary, but the group has had to delay their plans until county officials identify new Urban Growth Area boundaries for the county. The county is revising UGAs as required by the Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board. The board’s concerns are with eight of the county’s Urban Growth Areas including Silverdale and the county has been ordered to increase the density of housing in the areas to accommodate projected population. Eric Baker, project manager for Kitsap County, said the boundary revisions could affect those sent boundaries proposed by the Citizens United group and the group had decided to wait until the revision was complete. “The county is required to revisit Urban Growth Areas to reduce them in size,” he said. “And the group has held off on their efforts because they are very interested that their boundaries meet our boundaries.” Baker said the county must submit its revision to the hearing board by Aug. 31. He said once the revision had been submitted the board would be required to review the county’s findings and make a decision on the revised boundaries which Baker said he anticipated

Baker said if the incorporation vote passed it would make an impact on revenue to the county and change services but could not say what those changes might entail until the revision is complete. “The county would obviously have a substantial revenue hit from lost sales tax revenue,” he said. “But, it would be premature to say how that would affect county operations until the revision is complete.” County Commissioner
Josh Brown said he wanted Silverdale residents to be aware of the pros and cons of the incorporation. Brown said if the incorporation were to pass a vote it would remove $7 million in funding from the county and would affect services to newly incorporated residents. He said one example would be road management. “In the event of a snowstorm, we would place a See INCORPORATION, A11

Kitsap County Fire and Rescue chose its new fire chief, and although he is a newcomer to the area, he is expected to bring a wealth of experience and education with him. The new chief, Scott Weninger, served as deputy fire chief who is departing Clackamas Fire District No.1 In Milwaukie, Ore. He, will replace departing KCFR Chief Roy Lusk on Aug 1. Weninger was chosen after months of searching following Lusk’s retirement notice. CKFR hired Emergency Services Consulting International from Wilsonville, Ore. to conduct the search and the firm came back with 25 candidates for the position. Of those 25, CKFR commissioners narrowed the choice down to three candidates. Fire district commissioner Bob Muhleman said Weninger was chosen on the basis of everything he could bring to the position. “Of the final three we selected, he was our first choice,” Muhleman said. “It was a difficult decision, but it was a unanimous decision of the board. We felt he had skills, education and experience for the position.” Weninger began his career in 1980 as a volunteer firefighter the day after he graduated and joined the fire department in Redland, Ore.,

After a months-long search, Weninger was chosen for the position on the basis of experience, education and personality. as a volunteer. He continued to serve in multiple departments as firefighter ant emergency medical technician until 1987 when he began working for the Clackamas Fire District, where he eventually ascended to the position of deputy chief. While serving, Weninger also earned degrees in fire service and administration and business and also graduated from the National Fire Academy’s Executive Fire Officer Program. Weninger said that although he is new to the area, he hails from a district similar to Central Kitsap in many ways such as geography, equipment and software used and he will be able to bring that experience with
him as well. “Clackamas Fire District 1 is twice as big, but it is identical in organization,” he said. “It is eerie how similar they are.” Departing Fire Chief Roy Lusk said he also felt Weninger had a lot to offer the district including a personable nature. “I have met Scott and he seems like a very nice individual,” he said. “He has a lot of the characteristics to make a great fire chief.” Muhleman said Weninger will face his fair share of challenges in his new position, but he has confidence in his abilities. “We have many challenges ahead of us including See CHIEF, A11

Surprise surprise IN OUR OPINION
It is no surprise that the ill-fated Kitsap 9/11 Memorial will not be complete by Sept. 11, 2012. What is surprising is that the committee behind the project had the gall, while fundraising, to tell people that it would be. Well short of the $336,000 construction budget, the committee has yet to deal with the gaping financial hole left by $300,000 of site preparation required at Evergreen Rotary Park before the memorial will be built. They had to know it would not be built by September. With past failed promises of completion and only $88,000 remaining in the memorial’s bank account, out of an estimated $114,000 raised so far, the committee finds itself with an almost impossible goal to raise the money before the construction price tag triples with time. Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent continues to promise the public that no taxpayer dollars will go into the memorial. The parks department has no money in the budget to rework the memorial site at Evergreen Rotary Park. Both facts are made worse considering that neither the site preparation needs nor site preparation costs were publicly discussed at presentations, hearings and meetings conducted prior to the city council, blind to the specific eventuality, voted 9-0 to approve the memorial location or the later vote to approve its final design. Bremerton’s citizens spoke loudly opposing the original design saying it failed to represent Kitsap County’s experience of 9/11 in favor of FDNY canonization and firefighter hero worship. Now, 75 percent smaller in scope, the memorial design remains unconnected to our community. The project, which came about accidentally, has been a pet project of a few imposed on the many. What is truly reflected in the lack of fundraising success is that the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial is of little interest to those outside the Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue community.

Will there be another Smiley? What a drag Many things surprised me when I first saw Dustin — home for his mid-deployment rest and recuperation period (R&R) - at the airport after nearly seven months apart. Sure, he was wearing clothes and a smile I instantly recognized, but he was slightly thinner, definitely tanner, and totally unshaven from 37 hours of traveling. New flecks of grey had sprouted around his ears, and patches of it had settled throughout his beard. The lines making a starburst from the corner of his eyes seemed more prominent, but his neck and skin around his collar bones, which I could see through his stretchedout collar, seemed sunken. On the way to the resort, where we would spend two full days together before reuniting with the kids, even Dustin’s stories and mannerisms felt new. He mentioned names I hadn’t heard before. “Wait, who is ______?” I asked several times. Dustin, realizing how separate our day-to-day lives had been, would backtrack and retell the story, this time filling in the blanks as if we were on a first date. His clothes smelled musty and damp. I knew they needed a good washing in hot, color-safe bleach. I didn’t even recognize his suitcase. Was it one from home? Nothing, however, was quite as surprising and unfamiliar as what Dustin said as soon as we got into the resort hotel room suitable for a honeymoon: “I’ve been thinking maybe we should have a fourth child.” (This is where the record comes to a loud, screeching stop, and the sound of crickets fills the air.) Let’s rewind, shall we? The day before I picked up Dustin at the airport, I couldn’t stop thinking about our time at the resort. Mostly, I fantasized about: 1) sleeping past 7:00 a.m. 2) not watching cartoons 3) not asking for the kids’ menu 4) floating in a pool without three children screaming, “Mom, watch me do this,” and “Mooooom! You weren’t looking!” 5) not being responsible for someone else’s private matters in the bathroom Number 5 was a big one.

At last, as fall approaches and my youngest will begin kindergarten, I see a light at the end of the tunnel. From 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily, I just might have time to do something for myself something drastic like sit in a quiet living room and do nothing. While the crickets in our hotel room chirped and my mind raced, I tried to understand the words that had just come from Dustin’s lips. Up until about a year ago, I was still unsure about being “done.” I didn’t want to close the door. Verbalizing it even — as in “I’m done having babies” — felt profane. So we just didn’t say anything at all, and I wondered when I would wake up and know, without a doubt, that the shop was out of business. Yet, in that moment, at the resort, while the proverbial crickets filled the space between me and Dustin, I thought, I’M DONE, and I
had never really been so sure of anything. Then I looked at Dustin. He was smiling and searching my face for answers. I tried to understand this man, the one who, incidentally, had hoped our third son with the January due date would be born on the better side of the tax season. That’s when I realized, for seven months, all Dustin had seen were the happy moments: the pictures of Ford rounding third base and running toward Home. The recording of Owen’s new “Cartoon Dad” and “Cartoon Owen,” each of which had a British accent. The video of Lindell doing a goal kick at his soccer game. First he stretched his arms and checked his shoelaces. Then he checked the wind with his finger. Dustin had missed: spilled cereal and milk on the kitchen floor; tantrums in the grocery store; fights on the couch; screaming in the car — “He’s on my side! He touched me! He’s looking at me!” He hadn’t been caught “not looking” at an “amazing dive” at the pool or throwing away some “treasured” artwork from school (“Yes, how DID that get in the trash?”). I had not videotaped or photographed any of these moments. See SMILEY, A11

Finally, wave drag refers to the little “bow wave” that forms in front of a fast swimmer’s head. To move forward, a swimmer must move up and through that constant waveform. Elite swimming is all about fine-tuning body movement to minimize drag and maximize thrust. Just as engineers design planes and sports cars to slice through the air quickly and easily, coaches try to help swimmers master the basics of fluid dynamics to zip from one end of the pool to the other.

To Our Heroes… Our Customers: July 13 is the third anniversary of the initial award to our company of the Defense Department’s third generation TRICARE contract for the 21-state West Region, a contract that had yet to start. It is also the day we are announcing that we will not be continuing our challenge of the government’s subsequent decision to now award this contract to someone else, in spite of our being the lowest cost bidder. There is no greater privilege than being of service to you… our fellow citizens. And, while we will soon turn the reins of this work over to another, one thing is certain… you can expect that our work will continue to honor those we are privileged to serve until the end of our current contract on March 31, 2013. It is with mixed emotions that we make this decision; however, continuing to challenge the government’s decision will not bring an end to the uncertainty that has plagued this program for the last three years and will only drive up the costs for all involved. Our greatest privilege these past 16 years has been to serve you who wear or have worn the uniforms of the United States, and your families. TriWest was formed for the express purpose of serving those eligible for TRICARE. Our Mission Statement reads: “To provide its customers with access to high-quality, cost effective health care services and superior customer service while returning a reasonable profit to its owners.” And, we believe our track record reflects a fulfillment of this mission. For example: 1) Our owners leveraged their presence to build a robust, high-quality, cost effective network of more than 175,000 providers. Through our partnership with Wisconsin Physician Services, we pay our providers in an industry-leading five days, with greater than 99 percent accuracy, and at discounts saving the taxpayer and Defense Department more than $1.2 billion the last eight years. More than 25 percent of this network is beyond geographic area contract requirements, paid for out of our own pocket, to address the needs of the National Guard, the Reserves, and their families. 2) We have always put patients at the forefront, to include developing care arrangements outside of our Region when their medical condition meant that was the optimal solution. 3) We have achieved an unparalleled customer satisfaction rating, as measured by TRICARE survey results… and, we resolve customer issues on first contact more than 96 percent of the time. 4) We were recognized by the Secretary of Defense in 2009 with the National Freedom Award for our support of the Guard and Reserve, and have consistently been ranked as one of the top Military Friendly and Military Spouse Friendly employers in the country. 5) We have developed special programs to address the unique needs of Wounded Warriors, survivor families, special needs children and those of the special ops/special forces communities. 6) And, we have given back to assist with the unmet needs of you… our customers… nearly $75 million in contributions to support organizations on which you rely, such as the USO, Fisher House Foundation, Armed Services YMCA, TAPS and the Relief Societies, rather than taking it as profit. To all whom we have been privileged to call our customers, you humble us with your sacrifice. We are grateful for your service and have been proud to be there for you in your times of need. We wish you and your families the very best and will always value the honor we were granted to be of service to you! Respectfully,
David J. McIntyre, Jr. President and CEO

Getting a grip on graffiti Bremerton police use bike patrols, work with property owners to try and catch taggers in the act By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
At the tail end of a marathon city council session last week, councilman Roy Runyon wondered aloud whether or not the mayor and her administration need more direction in dealing with Bremerton’s graffiti problem. “The administration is trying to deal with this and
we’ve got citizens out there that want action,” Runyon said. “I think the council needs to, at some point weigh in and say, ‘Hey, administration we wanna make this a priority. What’s it gonna cost to achieve these goals?’ So, I’m just gonna suggest that. If the council doesn’t think it’s that important, well, I think that helps everybody not spend as much energy as people are spending on it.”

Councilwoman Leslie Daugs, who sits on the public safety and parks committee, agreed. “I’d like to move on the graffiti issue as well, but the chief was not there (at the most recent public safety committee meeting) to discuss it,” she said. Mayor Patty Lent, though, said that she and the police department are addressing the city’s graffiti problem head-on. “Don’t think that we’re ignoring the graffiti,” she said. Mayor Lent noted that there have been a few graffiti

prosecutions so far this year and that volunteers paint over graffiti one weekend only to have it re-tagged by the next weekend. She and City Attorney Roger Lubovich also noted that trying to catch taggers in the act, in order to successfully prosecute them, is not at all easy. “I think cameras are the way to do it, but it’s not going to change overnight,” Lent said. Bremerton Police Department Lieutenant Pete Fisher later said that combating graffiti is a priority for police officers. He said the department has an officer on second and third watches tasked with graffiti investigations, along with the added benefit of a detective to assist when needed. He said the night shifts also use bikes and other techniques to actively seek out these crimes. “The main challenge in a city with over 55,000 calls for service a year is prioritizing the seriousness of crimes and addressing each with appropriate response,” Fisher said. “Crimes like tagging are easy to commit and since they take just seconds to accomplish even harder to prevent.
Friday, July 20, 2012
Reported cases of graffiti between January and mid-July and one year totals: 2009: 39/50 2010: 20/56 2011: 70/126 2012: 43/? Bremerton police made one graffiti arrest in 2010. In 2011, the department made eight arrests. So far this year, officers have made two arrests and identified people that they believe are responsible in a total of eight cases. Those charged and convicted continue to re-offend. The other issue is that many taggers will copy or put up their friend’s monikers so prosecutors are reluctant to charge crimes when we do not have a witness, video or other evidence.” Fisher said that tagging is happening in various areas of the city, but there are three areas that have more reported incidents: Wheaton way between the 4200 block and 1900 block; Pacific Avenue
between 6th Street and Burwell Street; and Callow Avenue between Burwell and 6th Street. So far this year, there have have been 43 reported cases of graffiti, Fisher said. “We have identified eight possible suspects from those cases,” he added. Fisher also said that officers follow up on leads as they develop and that the department has created a system that allows officers to “group incidents of similar tagging and potentially close multiple cases when we develop probable cause to make an arrest.” In addition, police are continuing bike patrols to identify taggers and working with business and property owners that already have surveillance cameras. “We have assigned specific officers to track and keep records on all graffiti incidents and they communicate with other jurisdictions looking for commonalities and to identify taggers that migrate to several different areas,” Fisher said. “We are reviewing camera capabilities specifically designed to capture these type of crimes.”

Dist. says $500K plans needed either way By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
A few weeks before the public vote on the levy to pay for it, the Bremerton School District moved forward on its plans to build an addition to the West Hills STEM Academy. Last week the Bremerton School Board voted to award the STEM Academy design contract to Rice Fergus Miller of Bremerton. Rice Fergus Miller was recommended from three finalists for the contract by a panel, which included district superintendent Flip Herndon, director of finance Wayne Lindberg, two school board members and Charles Doyle, a West Hills parent. Lindberg said the decision was made by the panel, which also considered national firms, but he said the final decision was made on the merits of the local firm. “We are very comfortable with the decision that was
made,” he said. Lindberg said the fate of the project still rested on what the voters in Bremerton decide during levy vote to be held on Aug. 7, during the state primary elections. If voters approve the levy, it would give the district $7.6 million in money for projects such as replacing or upgrading the district’s central kitchen, for $500,000, and adding classroom space to the academy. If the levy does fail the academy expansion project would halt. Regardless, the district had set money aside for the plans for possible future funding for the academy project, Lindberg said. “If the levy doesn’t pass, what we will do is get the conceptual and the designs and just hang on to it until we decide what are next step is,” he said. Steve Rice, of Rice Fergus Miller, said he was pleased to have the contract valued at about $500,000. Though the firm does not specialize in elementary school design, the project mirrored design passions of the firm, he said “When I saw this advertised I thought there is so much transferrable knowl-
edge here,” he said. “Our office is a living STEM project and when something like this comes up that has a particular niche and we feel we have something to offer, we are all over it.” Larry Keeton, director of Community Development for Kitsap County, said it was not uncommon for plans to be drawn in preparation for the possibility of a future project. Keeton said it takes time for the county to review such plans and preparation is often recommended. “They are wiser to get project design and have it ready to submit if funding becomes available later,” he said. The price of the project will depend upon final plans, but Lindberg said it is currently estimated that the STEM addition would cost about $2.5 million and the architect usually receives 15 percent to 20 percent of the money. F l ip Her ndon, Superintendent for the Bremerton School District said he looked forward to working with the firm and felt the firm shared the district’s vision for the project. “I think they are going to do a great job,” he said.

Rebuilding families Parent group helps reunited families stay together By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com
For Myrta Bowen, a long battle with addiction, homelessness and the loss of her children turned into catalyst for change in her life and in the lives of others. Today, Bowen is a volunteer with the Parent to Parent Program sponsored by the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services’ Child and Family Services department. The group’s third annual reunification event was held June 28 at Evergreen Park in Bremerton, and local officials and families helped by the program gathered together to celebrate the positive work done through the program. During the celebration, parents who have been helped by the volunteers spoke about the positive impact the program has made in their families and thanked volunteers for their help in bringing their families back together. For Bowen, the event was a reminder of the darkness in her own past and the evidence of the bright possibilities of change the program can offer. In 2004, Bowen and her family found themselves homeless and couch surfing in Bremerton. Bowen was addicted to methamphetamine, the family fell apart and the authorities became involved. Child Protective Services asked Bowen to give the state temporary custody of her oldest son and within a week she had lost custody of all of her children, with her two sons sent into foster homes and her daughter placed with her own biological father. Confused and afraid, Bowen found herself in a system she did not know how to negotiate.
Happy Holidays
“It was hell, I had never been without my kids for more than a night,” she said. In the absence of her children and with all of the turmoil in her life, Bowen said she could not find the way out of her addiction. “I was lost and angry and did not know what to do, and I lost myself further in the drugs.” Offered assistance with her addiction and the problems in her life, Bowen said she did not take advantage of any opportunity to seek help and continued using drugs until a social worker explained she might lose her children forever. “The social worker for the youngest [child] laid it on the line for me,” she said. “That kicked me in the butt, and I knew I had to change something.” Bowen entered a 28-day recovery program at Prosperity House in Tacoma and became involved in any and all services and classes offered, such as parenting, recovery, relapse prevention and nutrition. “If they offered it, I got involved with it,” she said. Bowen graduated from the program on March 15, 2005, but said it was not the end of her struggles with addiction. She remembered sitting on a friend’s couch on March 17, 2005, a haze of methamphetamine smoke hanging in the air between herself and a picture of her children playing. It was this tableau, so indicative of her troubles that separated her from her children and the possibilities a better life, that she said became the true turning point in her life. “March 17, 2005” she said. “That was the last day I touched meth.” Not immediately forthcoming about her relapse, Bowen said she had learned enough in her program of recovery to know that any

Myrta Bowen, with her husband, Jay, and their son Joseph and daughter Britany. Myrta Bowen has overcome addiction and the loss of her children to keep her family together and now uses her experience to help other families stay together. meaningful change in her life had to begin with being truthful. “I kept it a secret for as long as I could until I finally got honest in my program of recovery,” she said. She said she was helped into a twoyear program by workers involved in her case, and in October of 2005 her hard work and newfound honesty convinced social workers to return her boys. “They saw all the work I had done and they were on my side,” she said. “By Halloween, I had both of my boys back.” Glenda Totten-Hatch, Clinical Services Supervisor with West Sound Treatment Center in Port Orchard, said it was not uncommon for addicts to need more than one program of recovery to find lasting sobriety. “This is a chronic disease and like any other chronic disease people have relapses,” she said. “People often have to go through treatment more than once.” Even though Bowen’s daughter remained with her biologic father, by 2006 all cases involving her children were closed, and she lived the next year just enjoying her children’s presence in her life. “I just wanted to spend all my time with my kids,” she said.
In 2008, Bowen said she was offered an opportunity to help others through her own experiences when then CPS supervisor Lynne Greenwald approached her to become involved in a mentoring program for parents who were faced with addiction and the loss of their children. Greenwald said other parents could benefit from the experiences Bowen had made it through and the changes she had undergone to win her children back. “In May of 2008 I did that and we started the Parent to Parent Program,” she said. Since that time, Bowen and other volunteers who have overcome addiction and other problems and regained their children began to work to help other parents struggling with the loss of their own children. She said volunteers with the program attended CPS hearings with parents and offered classes on dependency and explained the process the parents were about to go through with CPS involved in their lives. Volunteers work with multiple families in an effort to help families change their lives for the better. “We offer support from someone
who actually knows what they are going through,” she said. “There is a connection once they find we have lived it.” Jennifer Martin, the Parent to Parent Program Supervisor with the Kitsap County Juvenile Department, said the program was often instrumental in helping to reunite families. “It is invaluable for bridging the gap between parents who have had their kids removed and us as professionals,” she said. Martin said parents who have lost their children due to addiction or other issues are often angry and the veteran parents are able to talk with them and help them understand the process needed to return their children safely to them. “The goal of the process is to reunite families. But to do it in a way that is safe for children and families,” she said. Martin said the volunteers help in many ways besides the classes and attending hearings by helping parents to take notes, sometimes offering rides to appointments and simply being there for the parents. Totten-Hatch said parents seeking to recover their children and their lives need as much support as possible. She said it often takes collaboration between doctors, mental health therapists and chemical dependency professionals and anyone else who can become involved in a positive manner. “The more support you can get for a person, the better their recovery odds become,” she said. Ursula Petters, Area Administrator for the Department of Child and Family Services, said the volunteer parents have helped many families to negotiate the often confusing intricacies of the system and helped CPS with their goals of protecting children and reuniting families. “It can be a very complex system,” she said. “When we have veteran parents working with other parents, it helps them to understand what they need to do to reunite their famSee REBUILDING, A11

last year, that increased to $984, Court said. While Court said Kitsap County has not regained all of the jobs it lost during the Great Recession, which peaked locally for unemployment claims in January 2010, when 4,355 people drew unemployment for at least two weeks in a row, the economy has improved. As of June, that number had decreased to 2,232. Court said the county has 85,200 non-farm jobs, about 56,000 of which are in the private sector. While that number is not quite as high as its peak, Court said there are more establishments in Kitsap County than in 2005, when there were 6,254. She said there now are 6,321. “The economy is rebounding,” Court said. “It’s slower than people would like, but the economy is rebounding.” Powers, who noted that technology-related careers because it is fun for them to get out and pick it,” she said.

Democrats a nd Republicans have divergent views of how much the administration has done to bolster small business and the economy, but Powers said no one debates the importance of both as election day approaches. “We’re all part of the jobs party,” said Powers, whose

Booth Gardner, a Democrat, to designate a lead economic development organization in counties throughout the state. “We all want business growth.” Sen. Derek Kilmer, D-Gig Harbor, is vying for Washington State’s 6th Congressional District seat occupied by retiring U.S. Rep. Norms Kilmer said he has the experience to help small businesses through serving on the Tacoma-Pierce County Economic Development Board. Using a football analogy, Kilmer said small businesses are the “star running back” of the economy that too often gets tackled at the line of scrimmage because of regulations. One example Kilmer gave came from West Sound
Workforce president Julie Tappero’s presentation a few years ago at the Port Orchard Chamber of Commerce. Tappero said small businesses often were being fined for minor paperwork discrepancies. To address that issue, Kilmer introduced Senate Bill 5042 in February to provide regulatory relief for small businesses. “If a small business makes an honest, first-time paperwork violation, I think it’s appropriate for them to be let off with a warning instead of having to pay a fine,” Kilmer said. “Government should be sending a message that our state should be open for business. “If I’m elected to Congress, I will have a staff member dedicated to helping small businesses grow. I want them thinking every day how we make our small business successful.” Doug Cloud, a Gig Harbor

which supplies all the water for his gardening needs. Like many others on the tour, Brennan said urban gardening is an effective way for a family to save money on food costs. Brennan grew 100 percent of his produce. “If an average family produces all of their vegetable needs, and they are careful about what they spend on meat,” he said. “They could save more than half of what they spend on food.” And urban gardening can offer a different perspective on the world itself Brennan said.
He said the use of pesticides and genetic modifications found in much of the food offered in supermarkets not only removed the health benefits from the food but also adversely affected the environment. Brennan said urban gardening can reduce negative effects of modern food and meat production. “More and more I think we have lead impoverished lives due to this reliance on everything being instant and everything being cheap,” he said. “Growing your own food is better for your health and better for the planet.”
are experiencing some of the most rapid growth in Kitsap County, shared similar sentiments. “My sense is small business have stabilized in their economic condition,” he said. “They’re growing and becoming more profitable. They’re cautiously adding to their economic base. “Is it stronger than a year ago? Yes. The national economy has slowed a little bit, but we have firmed up a bit.”

Republican who is a candidate for Dicks’ seat, said running his own law office helped him understand the the challenges that smallbusiness owners face –– the expense and time to obtain a business license, environment regulations, Affordable Care Act and other obstacles at the federal level, and Washington state’s businessand-operations tax. “It becomes very difficult for someone to take the risk to open a small business,” Cloud said. “I think in order for people to start and expand businesses, you need to have a favorable environment for them.” For Cloud, cutting the red tape means the way to encourage others “to tell government to get out of the way.” “The more financial burden you add to small business, the harder it is for them to make it,” he said. “It’s a difficult environment for people who are ambitious. That discourages people, no question about it.”

employee perspective, they will not experience any additional procedures or requirements as they seek services under their medical insurance plan.” Furuta explained that county presently provides insurance coverage for its employees through insurance premiums paid directly to its insurance carriers. The rates are set by the carriers and covers administration, risk and cost pooling and claims. As a self-insured program, the county will retain a third party administrator, purchase stop loss insurance to protect against very large claims and pay actual claims directly to its insurance providers. Furuta said that self insurance is nothing new to Kitsap County which already has self insurance programs in place for unemployment insurance, workers compensation and general liability. Other counties in Washington state that are self insured include King, Snohomish, Pierce, Whatcom, Klickitat, Skagit and Grant. Self-insured cities include Seattle, Bellevue, Renton, Tacoma, Kent, Ellensburg and Yakima. Plans for the audit and move to self insurance were put together by DiMartino Associates. The county’s health care consultant landed a two year contract last October and earns $81,000 per year for its services.

mittee, $300,000 in site preparations must be complete before the memorial can be built. The city has no budget for the work and the committee has said they will not build the memorial before site preparation is complete. Torbron said the group is in need of cash donations, but also needs construction materials such as concrete, dirt and foundation and irrigation materials to assist in completion of the memorial. “We also need a good price on a flag pole with a base,” she said. She said the group will continue to raise funds through hosting events such as a gala held April 14 where the group was able to raise $6,000 for the project. Departing Fire Chief Roy Lusk, Chair of the Kitsap 9/11 Memorial Committee, said the group also needs donations of time from citizens, especially those skilled in construction. “We need all type of construction trades to help us through this project,” he

said. The completed project would employ two remnant steel beams from the World Trade Center Towers destroyed by the terrorist attack on Sept. 11, 2001 and would be built on land owned by the City of Bremerton in Evergreen Park. The steel was made available through the September 11th Families Association and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to be used as in memorials around the United States and the world. The CKFR was the third in the nation to apply for the material and the first in Washington to be approved. The design also includes tiles already created by local fifth graders depicting the children’s conception of heroism. “The tiles will depict, either in words or pictures, what they believe a hero to be,” Lusk said. “150 of those tiles will be put on a wall of the memorial.” Lusk said the decision to include the work of fifth graders who were either not born or too young to remember the day of the attacks was reflective of why it was
important to complete the memorial. “It is not only to honor the memory of the 343 FDNY firefighters that were killed that day, it is in memory of the 2,977 civilians, military, police, port authority and people just going about their everyday lives who lost their lives. It is important that they not be forgotten by future generations.” Final Plans have been approved by the city after a committee and input from citizens scaled back the original design dimensions of the memorial and include some reflection of the affect that day had on Kitsap County. Mayor Patty Lent said a meeting would be held today between city leaders and organizers of the project to discuss the details of moving forward with the memorial. She said since the memorial was not relying on taxpayer money for completion and upkeep the final fate of the project would rely on volunteers throughout the community. “We have the final plans approved by the city, citizens and the parks,” she said. “All we need is fundraising.

priority on serving unincorporated residents first,” Brown said. Marcus Hoffman, spokesperson for Citizens United for Silverdale, said the group would wait until the findings were complete, and despite possible setbacks the effort to incorporate would continue. Hoffman is also a Silverdale Water District commissioner. “We were trying to get it on the ballot for the spring, but because of the UGA we are waiting for that to be complete before we go through with the process,” Hoffman said. Hofman said the group is seeking cityhood for Silverdale on the basis of more localized control for the city and to have local taxes stay in the proposed Silverdale boundaries. “Everyone in the county gets to vote on what hap-

pens in Silverdale,” he said. “We want Silverdale to have control over what happens in Silverdale.” Hoffman said he spent six months going door to door in the area and found that 75 percent of the people he spoke with supported incorporation for Silverdale. Jerry VanFossen is a longtime Silverdale resident who is against the incorporation of the city. VanFossen said incorporation of the city would raise taxes in the area as well as add unwanted government to the area. “I don’t think we need another layer of government,” he said. “We would need a city manager, a city council and a place to house them as well as the infrastructure and technology to support them, and that would cost money.” Van Fossen said he is happy with the level of support the county offers Silverdale and incorporating Silverdale would affect those services also.
Hoffman said Silverdale residents could decide for themselves how money and services were handled if the incorporation vote were to pass. He added that incorporation would not raise taxes for residents and he said he had data that supported his claim. “That is just not true,” he said. “The more taxes argument is just false.”

Wilson said that no criminal charges are likely to result from the incident. “We’re not taking any action on this other than to document it and forward a report to the prosecutor’s office,” Wilson said. “We’re not taking any corrective action or making a recommendation.

Kitsap Arts & Crafts Festival July 27-29 “Boardwalk,” a watercolor by Gerald Dowell, has such detail and clarity that at first glance it can be mistaken for a photograph. And it was a third-
place winner. Imagine the other great art you’ll see at the 53rd annual Kitsap Arts & Crafts Festival July 27, 28 and 29 at Kingston’s Mike Wallace Park, next to the Kingston Ferry Terminal. The event showcases the best in art by local artists and raises money for scholarships for local high school graduates. The headline event at the festival is the Juried and Open Art Show and Student Art Show. More than
180 student, open and juried artworks were on display at the 2011 festival. Kitsap Arts & Crafts has helped keep arts education alive in local schools, which don’t often don’t have the funding to keep their own programs going. Kitsap Arts & Crafts, a 501(c)3 nonprofit, cultivates and promotes the arts in Kitsap County by awarding art scholarships to qualified students, supporting the Art Docent Program in
public elementary schools and producing the annual Arts & Crafts Festival, as well as presentation of awards to winning artists. These programs are supported by festival proceeds and by contributions. Since 1975, Kitsap Arts & Crafts has awarded 181 scholarships to local youths to help further their arts education. The program gives $2,000 annual scholarships with three additional renewals,

ayden Strum was 4 and weakened by treatment for a brain tumor when he decided he would take on those 10 stairs at Ronald McDonald House. His words were profound for someone his age. “Mom, put me down. I’m going to climb the stairs myself,” Kathleen Strum of Poulsbo remembers her son saying. “This is my challenge for today.” “He was only 41/2 years old. He walked up those stairs and left me without an excuse. I thought, ‘I’ll never complain again in my life.’ What is 50 miles next to that?” Five friends, Kathleen among them, will walk 50 miles on Saturday — from North Fork to Elwha along the Quinault and Elwha rivers — to raise money for the Hayden R.

Living with gout Gout is a type of arthritis characterized by redness, swelling, and a burning pain. Often affecting the toes, gout is caused by a build-up of uric acid, a by-product of urate, which is naturally produced by the body and certain high-protein foods. Your podiatrist can prescribe medication that will help prevent gout, but there are steps you can take to make it less likely to occur. Keeping your weight down will lessen the amount of pressure on your joints. Limit the amount of protein you eat. Limit your alcohol intake, as alcohol inhibits the breakdown of uric acid. Also be sure to drink plenty of fluids.

“In one instance, we found a vitamin-A derivative usually used for acne (that is) as powerful as our most potent chemotherapy. In another, we identified a scorpion-derived peptide that makes cancer cells ‘light up’ so surgeons can see them during the operation, improving the amount of tumor removal and sparing normal brain. “Breakthroughs like these are only possible because of generous people like you, who fund the most innovative research one pledge at a time.” Strum said treatment is much better today than it was when her son was undergoing treatment. “Imagine what it will be like in another 10 years,” she said.

trek is David Bennett of Bainbridge, Dawn LamontHolman of Hansville, Julie Snyder of Poulsbo, and Liza Snyder, Julie’s daughter, of Poulsbo. The friends call this event “A Walk in the Park 2012.” They began planning the trek at the beginning of the year and have trained since April; they’ve hiked portions of the trail, and on her neighborhood walks Strum carries a 5-foot, 25-pound pole with which she does lunges. The group will spend Friday night at Rain Forest Resort Village on Lake Quinault. “The five of us will depart at 2 a.m. on the day of the hike in order to reach the Elwha Ranger Station before dark,” said Julie Snyder, a pre-AP English teacher in the Central Kitsap School District. Their trail will connect to a trail on the north fork of the Quinault River, climb to an elevation of 3,200 feet at Low Divide, then continue north along the Elwha River to Elkhorn to Whiskey

The group will have to ford several creeks, rivers and streams. “It’s not like walking on the road,” Strum said. “Each placement of your feet is important. We have to cover a lot of water and it can be hazardous at some points.” The five will average about one mile every 20 minutes, finishing in about 19 hours, Strum said. But the memories of Hayden, Gunnar and Brian — and the hope for continued advances in treatment of pediatric brain tumors — shape their perspective. “The event is over the top. The walk is difficult, but so is having a brain tumor,” Snyder said. While the 50-miler is serious in mission, Strum said the group enjoys the challenge and the experience. “It’s upbeat and a nice time out there. It’s not a sad time,” she said. There are events along the way that are catharsis. Strum said friends gave her small rocks to leave on the hike. Each rock represents a burden, and she’ll leave them just as pilgrims do on the Camino de Santiago de

Rebecca’s Turnip and Snap Pea Salad — with a twist R
ebecca is a farmer and one of the owners of Persephone Farm. When I went to pick up my CSA last week she told me about this salad she made and gave me a taste of it. She made it for a Fourth of July party that she was attending. I couldn’t believe how delicious it was. I told her I wanted to eat the entire bowl. I asked her what was in it. She said, “Turnips, snap peas and spices.” Luckily, I took a picture. I immediately went home to make a salad as close to hers as I could.
So I call this “Rebecca’s Turnip, Snap Pea Salad with a Twist!” The twist: I added garlic, baby carrots and sunflower seeds. You can never have too much sweet, savory and crunch! Ingredients 1-2 cups cut snap peas 1 cup chopped turnips 1-2 cloves fresh garlic 1 cup sliced baby carrots
1/4 cup sunflower seeds 1-2 generous pinches sea salt freshly cut dill Walnut Oil — key ingredient to bring out the flavor in the ingredients; almost creamy and, of course, nutty flavor. Instructions Use enough Walnut Oil to coat all of the ingredients. Mix all of the ingredients and chill in the refrigerator at least 1 hour before serving. — Lisa Garza’s Gluten Free Foodies blogs is one of the more popular blogs on Sound Publishing Co.’s websites.

n Torii Mor Winery 2009 Dundee Hills Select Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $45: Four vineyards went into this bottling — La Colina, Olson, Bella Videa and Nysa — and it emerged with a brooding nose of black cherry candy, poached plums, vanilla bean, cola and smoke. Flavors feature more brightness of cassis and cranberry with accompanying acidity and a building of black cherry skin tannin. n Torii Mor Winery 2009 Nysa Vineyard Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $55: This distinctive wine opens with aromas of cherries, raspberries, strawberries, a hint of vanilla and hints of anise. On the palate, it reveals flavors of black cherries, red currants and raspberries. This is loaded with acidity, so it should age beautifully for a decade or more. Can’t wait that long? Pop the
cork and enjoy with veal or sirloin. n Torii Mor Winery 2009 Chardonnay, Willamette Valley, $24: Using grapes from Torii Mor’s estate vineyard in the Dundee Hills planted in 1972, this white wine opens with aromas of toast, coconut milk and handcrafted caramels, followed by bright flavors of pineapples, apples and lemons. n Torii Mor Winery 2010 Pinot Blanc, Rogue Valley, $20: This opens with aromas of spearmint, lime peel and freshly popped popcorn, followed by flavors of lemongrass, freshly squeezed lemon juice and kumquat. It was aged sur lie for three months, then put on oak for three months, both of which add a richness to the mouth feel without overwhelming the fruit. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine.
Oregon producer, French winemaker equal sublime wine O
ne of Oregon’s oldest vineyards was planted by Dr. Donald Olson in 1972 in the Dundee Hills in the northern Willamette Valley. Two decades later, Olson launched his winery, the now-iconic Torii Mor Winery. Over the years, Olsen has had such top winemakers as Patty Green (Patricia Green Cellars) and Joe Dobbes (Dobbes Family Estate). Since 2004, Jacques Tardy has been the head winemaker. The former Montinore Vineyards winemaker grew up in Burgundy — ancestral home of Pinot Noir — and is a fifth-generation winemaker, so Oregon's signature variety is undoubtedly in his blood. Torii Mor's name comes from two cultures. “Torii” comes from the Japanese term for ornate garden gates, and “Mor” is a Scandanavian term for “earth.”
NW Wines By ANDY PERDUE and eric degerman
Today, Tardy crafts many distinctive wines, including Chardonnay, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc and even Viognier and Syrah. But his focus is Pinot Noir, and he makes no fewer than eight different bottlings, depending on the vintage. Here are some of Torii Mor’s newest releases. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the winery directly (800-839-5004). n Torii Mor Winery 2009 La Colina Vineyard Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $55: This opens with aromas of cedar, saddle leather, cherries, chocolate and violets. On the palate, this wine is mostly about strawberries and Bing cherries — classic Dundee Hills — as well as hints of Baker’s choco-

late and cola. It is loaded with bright acidity and should continue to grow in complexity for the next several years. n Torii Mor Winery 2009 Olson Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $60: Olson Estate is one of the oldest plantings in the Dundee Hills, with vines dating back to 1972.
This opens with luscious aromas of dark plums, forest floor, raspberries and hickory smoke, followed by flavors of cherries, blackberries, blueberries and even a hint of lime zest, all backed with dark chocolate. We like this wine now, and we’ll really love it in another two to three years. n Torii Mor Winery 2009 Deux Verres Reserve Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $35: This superb example of an Oregon Pinot Noir is a blend of six vineyards in the northern Willamette Valley. It opens with aromas of black currants, raspberries, licorice and sweet pipe tobacco, followed by pleasing flavors of red currants, cherries and white strawberries. It is a complex wine backed with tannins that fan out across the palate and offer layers of flavor. This is beautifully balanced wine that will age well for a decade or more.

Counting calories is not enough M
ost diet programs for weight loss are mainly focused on managing calories. Of course, there is good reason for that. A surplus of calorie intake versus expenditure eventually leads to weight gain. Only about 500 additional calories a day can result in an extra

But is this even the right conversation to have? Obesity is undoubtedly one of the most pressing health problems of our time. But so is — paradoxically — malnutrition. “Americans are overfed and undernourished,” says Dr. Mark Hyman, author of the “Blood Sugar Solution — The UltraHealthy Program for Losing Weight, Preventing Disease, and Feeling Great Now!” (Little, Brown, 2012). In fact, he says, “most obese children and adults in the country are also the most nutritionally deficient.” The so-called “Standard American Diet” (SAD) is notoriously caloric, but too often nutrient poor, lacking many essential vitamins and minerals.

Educate yourself about nutritionally superior foods and the many advantages they can provide — not just for managing body weight but, more importantly, for all-around good health. ClipArt.com highly processed foods and ingest lots of sugar, refined grains and hydrogenated fats (trans-fats) may gain weight, but remain hungry, because their nutritional needs are not met. But instead of altering their food choices, they simply keep munching on more of the same. When they eventually decide to go on a diet, they may starve themselves, but all they often do is deprive their body further by cutting back on (empty) calories without replacing them with more and better nutrients, which is what a healthy
diet (for weight loss or otherwise) should be all about. Nutrition experts have long known that one of the best ways to achieve and maintain a healthy weight range is to focus on nutritional quality first. Yes, portion sizes do matter, but they become less important as you switch from empty calories to nutrient-dense ones. An extra helping of fresh fruit or vegetables is harmless by comparison to a supersized cheeseburger, pizza slice or order of French fries. The same goes See FOOD, Page 7

POULSBO — A Healthier Tomorrow, a family health fair, is scheduled July 28, 1-4 p.m. at Raab Park in Poulsbo. The event is free and open to the public. The fair is organized by Joanna Kirkwood, who is graduating with a degree in fashion marketing and management from Art Institute of Seattle. Sponsors include the Poulsbo Athletic Club; Maxx Nutrition; Think Thin, a maker of organic and low-carb foods; Popchips, a maker of health snack foods; and Franklin Chiropractic of Silverdale. The fair includes a presentation, “Reading Labels: How and What to Look For”; as well as demonstrations and food samples from vendors, and healthy living workshops. You can learn Pilates and yoga at the Poulsbo Athletic Club booth; ask questions about supplements at the Maxx Nutrition booth; and learn about the benefits of chiropractic at the Franklin Chiropractic booth. Kirkwood calls the event “A great family day out — have fun while learning how to improve
your overall health.” Kirkwood co-produced the 2012 Rite of Spring, the Art Institute of Seattle’s annual fashion show. She organized the health fair because “I’ve always had a passion for health,” she said. “I’m allergic to wheat and I’m a vegetarian, so I’ve always studied nutrition. I’d be a nutritionist if I couldn’t be anything else.”

Limousines Imperial Luxury & Town Cars “The Real Paul” Serving Bainbridge Island Since ‘91 People helping pets...pets helping people. Tabitha is a 6yr old tortie point Siamese
who came to us as a stray after someone found her wandering her neighborhood. The finder decided to bring Tabitha to the vets to see if she had a microchip and get her eyes checked. No chip. It was determined that Tabitha had entropian eyelids-a very painful condition which is the eyelid turned inward causing the eyelashes to continually rub on the eye. PAWS then stepped in and accepted responsibility for her care. Surgery was done and viola now she can see through her beautiful blue eyes. Her finder came to visit her. Tabitha was in her arms on her back like a baby actually “hugging” her and snuggling. She is a sweet cat who loves people. She isn’t that happy to be with the other cats as they take attention away from her.

“cool places to visit,” said JoAnn Johnson, president of Friends of Point No Point Lighthouse. “They are usually in the most scenic coastal locations in the U.S.” Point No Point Light is the oldest lighthouse on Puget Sound and is the only lighthouse in Kitsap County. It was built and lit in 1879. It was automated in 1977. The U.S. Lighthouse Society moved its headquarters from San Francisco’s Financial District to the lightkeeper’s quarters in 2008. The lighthouse and property were transferred from the U.S. Coast Guard to Kitsap County in 2010. In 2010, American Express and the National Trust for Historic Preservation awarded $100,000 in restoration funds to Point No Point Lighthouse. The money was used to rehabilitate the oil house, install new shingles around the base of the lantern room, hang a new front door, run a new electrical line to the lighthouse, remove an inactive modern fog signal, replace the lantern room glass, and strip, patch, prime and paint the exterior walls. A re-opening celebration was held May 12, 2012. For more information, visit www.pnplighthouse. com.

aroundkitsap Bainbridge island Review Ostlings attorneys seek more than $660,000 in fees, costs from city: Attorneys for the Ostling family have asked a federal judge to award their legal team more than $660,000 in legal fees and related costs following a $1 million judgment against the city of Bainbridge Island. The request for attorneys’ fees was filed in U.S. District Court last month by lawyers with Connelly Law Offices, the Tacoma-based law firm that represented the Ostling family in their lawsuit against the city. William and Joyce Ostling filed suit against the City of Bainbridge Island, Police Chief Jon Fehlman and Bainbridge Police Officer Jeff Benkert. Their son Douglas Ostling was shot and killed by Benkert after he responded to a 911 call at the Ostling home in October 2010 and Ostling confronted police at his doorway holding a double-bladed ax. The jury in the federal civil rights trial found the
shooting was justified, but said police had not been properly trained to deal with the mentally ill, and awarded $1 million to the Ostlings and their son’s estate. The city has since asked for a new trial, and said the jury would have decided the case differently if Fehlman had been there to defend himself and his department. Fehlman was hospitalized before the start of the trial and has been on medical leave ever since. — BainbridgeReview.com

Central Kitsap Reporter Silverdale incorporation vote put on hold: Plans to hold an election on the incorporation of Silverdale will now have wait until spring 2013 or later. Citizens United for Silverdale hoped incorpora-

The county is revising UGAs as required by the Central Puget Sound Growth Management Hearings Board. The decision concerns eight of the county’s Urban Growth Areas, including Silverdale, and the county was ordered to increase the density of housing in the areas to accommodate projected population. Eric Baker, project manager for Kitsap County, said the boundary revisions could affect boundaries proposed
Poulsbo Coffee Oasis may open by fall: Coffee Oasis supporters hope that by September, a youth center catering to homeless and at-risk youth will be open for business in Poulsbo.

NEW homes make
Best Housing Market in Years
Although often we hear people say that they think that a “previously lived in” home, called a “resale” home in our industry, should be the best VALUE when compared to buying a new home, there are many arguments to the contrary. Here are just a few of those arguments: 1. Choice/Selection/Personalization - Your new home is the biggest investment you will ever make Why Not Have Your Home, Your Way? 2. Space - in addition to the typically more open floor plans found in newer homes - older homes don’t usually have the CLOSET or storage space that newer designs have. 3. New Home Design - the latest, greatest floor plan designs accommodate how people live TODAY, not yesterday. For example - do you ever use your formal dining room?
neighborhood of 42%+ more efficient* on energy bills! *varies by house and lifestyle, of course. 6. Modern Conveniences - New homes have the latest new appliances, new windows, new product technologies, and are often built in locations near the latest and greatest of everything. 7. New Homes are Built to CURRENT Codes - not the Codes of many years ago - meaning that some issues that could have been considered OK when it originally passed inspection - are now no longer acceptable building standards.
4. Less Maintenance - new homes have BRAND NEW operating systems, like plumbing, HVAC, etc... and usually don’t require maintenance until years down the road.
8. Warranty - New Homes usually have a Warranty. Meaning - usually you have 1 year to address any issues that don’t seem right with your builder - and they will come and fix them for you. No hiring contractors. In addition, for up to 10 years (our warranty is 1-10) you have coverage on any structural items.
5. Energy Efficiency - New Homes (specifically those by The Jones Company that are ENERGY STAR Certiifed and National Green Building Standard Certified) are typically somewhere in the
9. Emotional Factor - The fact that you are the one and only person who’s ever lived in this home. It’s YOURS and yours alone...built for you...to your specifications.
10. Healthier Indoor Environment - New, GREEN homes have healthier indoor air quality and can improve your family’s health - especially if they have issues with asthma, allergies, etc. 11. Price - Although a new home may be slightly more on the front end - in the long run - you’ll save $ on energy bills, operating costs, and maintenance while you live there! 12. Time - Your time is valuable. Would you rather spend your weekends doing maintenance - or enjoying your new home? 13. Enhanced Electrical Systems for today’s lifestyles - now that we all have computers, microwaves, etc...some of the electrical systems found in older homes are simply not sophisticated enough to handle today’s modern technology. So, in conclusion: the choice is up to you, but here are more than 10 great reasons why “NEW” and “NOW” are smart choices!
