County helps local producers with ‘food chain’ efficiency Energy conservation grants awarded to local farms and others By GREG SKINNER gskinner@soundpublishing.com

Every day Karen Olsen milks her small mixed herd Holstien and Gurney cows at her South Kitsap farm. To keep her raw milk product the best and freshest for Kitsap County and other local markets, she works hard to cool the milk from 98 degrees to 45 degrees in 20 minutes. Olsen gets it done at her Blackjack Valley Farm the old-fashioned way, milk cans set into bins of water loaded with ice. She acts at the “agitator” stering the milk for even cooling. “You want to get the milk as cold as you can as fast as you can,” she

said. Kitsap County is not a big producer agriculturally, but the Kitsap Food Chain program seeks to cut energy costs and the carbon footprint to grow and delivering local food to local markets. In effort to make Kitsap County’s “food chain” more energy effecent and affordable the Board of Kitsap County Commissioners Monday approved a series of grants to local food producers. Blackjack Valley Farms seeks to reduce its energy costs for its small dairy to daily cool 333 pounds of milk with ice using a mixture of residential and commercial equipment. A new 40-gallon cooling tank designed specifically for milk is expected to save money and time, said Kitsap County Resources Conservation manager Autumn Salamack. A total of $47,708 in of federal stimulus grants were awarded to

eight local companies out of the nine requesting rebates for energy efficient upgrades. The local program assessed 11 companies, of which nine moved forward with recommended upgrades and eight were awarded rebates for projects. Local companies receiving energy audits included Minder Meats in Bremerton and Monica’s Waterfront Bakery in Silverdale. “[We’re] really excited to see that number of applicants,” Salamack said. The monies will be awarded after the Kitsap County Conservation District verifies the work has been done. Two examples of projects made possible by the federal grants include the Blackjack Valley Farms project in Port Orchard and Pheasant Field Farm in Central Kitsap.

The City of Bremerton is set to extend a moratorium on medical marijuana collective gardens for another six months. The city first instituted a six-month moratorium in September and then again in February The current moratorium is set to expire Aug. 31. Allison Daniels, from the city’s Department of Community Development (DCD), said this week that she and other staffers are looking to other cities and counties for some direction on what has been a complicated issue. “Some cities are adopting codes and paving the way for every everyone else and other cities are continuing to adopt moratoriums,” Daniels said. “We’d like to get this off our desk and have the decision be made.” That decision, though, likely won’t come for another six months. Daniels said that cities such as Seattle, Tacoma, Shoreline, Port Orchard and Kent are struggling to come to terms with conflicting state and federal laws, but have taken various steps to move forward rather than continuing to pass moratoriums. In 2011, the Legislature passed a bill updating medical marijuana laws. Gov. Chris Gregoire vetoed portions of the bill, but left alone its governing of collective medical marijuana gardens. The advice city leaders continue to get from Bremerton City Attorney Roger Lubovich is that federal law makes marijuana illegal in all cases. Daniels said that dealing with permitting, zoning and other issues has been a priority in the last six See HOMELESS, A8

months, but more time is needed to see “what other cities are doing and what kind of litigation is out there so that we can have a complete plan to present to the council.” Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent, though, said that the moratorium “snuck up on us” because DCD was dealing with shoreline issues, moving forward with South Kitsap Industrial Area planning and other issues. “Time got away from us and we said, ‘Oh my gosh, we haven’t done enough research to complete zoning of medical marijuana grows,” Lent said. “We didn’t have enough time. That’s why we decided to put this off and extend it. To determine if there could be permitting, zoning and how it would be regulated.” In addition, Lent said that Lubovich, who is out of town for a couple of weeks, has consistently cautioned the council about creating local rules for a federally prohibited substance. “(Lubovich) has always said that marijuana is a federal offense,” Lent said. “So, even if the state says gardens are OK, the feds could arrest them for growing marijuana.” Lent acknowledged that the city has collective gardening, such as at Blueberry Park, but noted that growing vegetables to eat is different than growing marijuana because the latter is federally prohibited. “We’re very urbanized and it can be tough to carve out areas or determine if a yard would need to be a certain size,” she added. “When people wanted chickens, we allowed them to have them, but we also had people that didn’t want See MORATORIUM, A13

Library offers new site for mobile device users By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

Users of mobile devices will be able to access information from the Kitsap Regional Library with greater ease thanks to a dedicated site that went live June 27. The site offers catalog and user account information, access to e-books, upcoming library events, branch location and hours and a link to the full KRL site. Al Wallace, information technology coordinator for the library and designer for the dedicated site, said the site offers a scaled down version of the library’s main page, which Wallace said was cumbersome on the smaller screens of mobile devices such as smart phones. “The main site is too big for a small screen,” Wallace said. “This just gives mobile users an option for the most pertinent things they might need to know.” The initial computer code framework for the dedicated site had been created in a matter of hours and then developed over a course of weeks with input from staff and patrons. Jeff Brody, Director of Community Relations for the Kitsap Regional Library, said the rise in users of mobile devices showed a need for such a site. “This site makes it easier for users of mobile devices,” he said. “Instead of having to view the site in a format intended for larger screens, they can now access the dedicated site.” The dedicated site can be accessed at www.krl.org by mobile device users. Wallace said the library tries to meet the technological needs of library patrons and the dedicated site is part of that effort. “We try to keep with user trends,” Wallace said. “I think this fits the particular needs of mobile users far better.”

but he was only venting. He elaborated that he didn’t remember his exact posting but admitted to making some comments about the Batman movie killings. Tracy explained that he told the Bremerton police officer that he (Tracy) didn’t have access to any guns that would be needed for mass killings and he had no intentions of doing anything. I asked about him having guns, and Tracy told me that he had two bolt action rifles but nothing else. When asked if he told the Bremerton officer about the rifles, Tracy said that he (BPD Officer) didn’t ask about other guns, just the ones that he posted in the pictures, explaining that it was a friend’s AK-47 and not his. Due to this Tracy told him (BPD) that he didn’t have the guns in the pictures.” A felony harassment conviction can result in up to 5 years in prison and/or $10,000 in fines.

May that was not acceptable and he agreed,” Deputy Watson wrote. At least two sergeants at the sheriff’s office felt that the threats and harassment investigation warranted further action. Sheriff ’s office deputies eventually obtained a warrant for Wischhoefer’s garage and residence where they recovered the rifle, body armor and bandoliers from the “man cave” and two Russian bolt action rifles and a computer from inside the home. Deputies also returned to where Wischhoefer was working and placed him under arrest. “Tracy said that he understood his rights and vented that he was already questioned by Bremerton police about the internet postings …” a deputy wrote in his report. “Tracy vented that when he posted the comments online it wasn’t to scare anyone and he wasn’t trying to threaten anyone

Also spotted were suspected air soft rifles and a samurai sword. “I passed this information on to my supervisors,” May wrote. “This ended my involvement in the case.” In addition, according to a report by Deputy Lee Watson, “There were several black plastic boxes like those used for storing and protecting handguns. The garage appeared to be a type of man cave, with a pool table, sofas, a flat screen TV, punching bags, workout gear, knives, a Samurai sword, air soft guns and a dart board.” In his report, Deputy Watson also wrote that he and officer May spoke about the case a second time. “Officer May called me later to inform me, his supervisors told him to write up his report and forward it to the prosecutor’s office.

Officer Floyd May wrote in a report that Wischhoefer told him “several times that posting the threats was a stupid thing to do and that he was not thinking.” “He went on, saying he has no intentions of carrying out any attacks on the band or the Charleston Theater,” May wrote in a police report. “Tracy told me he does not even own any guns. I asked Tracy about the photos of him with guns on his Facebook page. According to Tracy, the photos were taken when he went to Las Vegas.” Shortly after May left, though, he was informed by Kitsap County deputies that they could see a tube magazine fed semi-automatic .22 caliber rifle with an open chamber, olive

Public record IN OUR OPINION

It would behoove local governments to properly train their poorly trained employees tasked as liaisons to the public’s access to records and meetings. The public’s access is not a whimsical or personal decision to make. If not for the sake of the best public access possible then train them because it’s inevitable a judge will order it. As current behavior shows, sooner or later, Port Orchard, Bremerton, Central Kitsap District or Kitsap County will be found in violation of state access laws because they often fail the standards, they expose themselves to suits. Along with clear violations, we’ve seen public meetings moved, canceled and held at the most ridiculous places and times. While not illegal, the maneuvers are not public access friendly. Specifically, we’ve recently seen the director of communications from the Central Kitsap School District force a reporter (that didn’t know better) to shut off a recorder during a contentious school board meeting that outed leadership issues during a budget crisis. The spokesman later defended his poor action by saying he thought the reporter would have had to seek the permission of “everyone in the room” in order to record. Had he been trained, the spokesperson would have known better than violate public meetings law as he did. This week, the Port Orchard Police asked a reporter for an ID before granting access to the daily incident report and arrest logs, which are public records free of ID requirements. Both the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office and the City of Port Orchard recently threatened to change their public information and records access policies in retaliation for stories we printed that they did not like. In PO’s case, the mayor sought to have a special citywide protocol for information request from the Port Orchard Independent only. Other media outlets would have seen no change. Both agencies backed off after rethinking their approach. On Aug. 3, the Bremerton Police “reopened” a closed investigation into the embezzlement from the now bankrupt American Legion Post 68 following a records request from a reporter working with our sister publication Veterans Life. The department’s spokesperson admitted that the investigation was reopened in response to our request (not a listed exemption) and then denied access to the file saying it was under investigation. After 10 days of wrangling and arguing about records access laws in which we sought legal advice that left us divided on the question to sue or not to sue, the city delivered the records. Proper training now will save governments and agencies time and money down the road during these tough budget years. Proper training now will better serve the public for whom those governments and agencies work.

This method uses

The city of Bremerton has a mixed bag of both thermal and painted crosswalks. It would make sense that a fewer number of reapplications would mean a reduction in the number of staff and hours that have to be utilized to maintain school zone crosswalks from year to year. The first day of school for the Bremerton School District is Sept. 5. For another school year to begin with any inferior school zone crosswalks is really unacceptable. For such a simple, practical issue to languish this long without a set, automatic, permanent solution plan in place is also unacceptable. The fact that I even have to write about it yet again to see a resolution is endlessly frustrating as a citizen as well as a parent of a student. The information and photos I collected this past weekend have been submitted to the full city council with a reminder that this issue is an important part of a goal that they have set for themselves for 20122013. Take extreme care when driving or crossing in school zones.

Interestingly, the study found that most people have low levels of some harmful types of bacteria in them, organisms that can cause certain infections.

Play Day enjoyed by all ages Refinancing government By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

Young adventurers found something of fun and interest at the recent Clear Creek Trail Discovery Play Day held from 10 a.m. to noon Tuesday in Silverdale. The event was held at the Clear Creek Sa’qad Interpretive Center in Silverdale and offered folks the chance to hear stories, create wildlife related art and get out and take a circular hike around the creek and learn about nature. The event was hosted by the volunteers of the Clear Creek Trail Task force whose mission is to protect the Clear Creek Ecosystem as well as educate residents about the ecosystem. Mary Zabinski, a volunteer educator with the task force, said the event was focused on the educational aspect of the group’s mission. “The Clear Creek Task Force has a mission to

steward the trail and property it is on but also to educate people on how to protect and restore the environment there,” she said. Zabinski said she volunteered for the task force after she returned to the area and found Clear Creek changed. “I grew up in Kitsap County and moved away to start my career in New York,” she said. “I moved back and Clear Creek did not look the same because of all of the development around it, so I volunteered to help.” Zabinski said she decided in 2007 to create an eco-education event focused on young people. “Since I had preschoolers, I created a program for preschoolers,” she said. Since that time she said the play days have attracted more than 20 preschoolers and their families to each event. Denise Kilkenny, a volunteer educator with the Clear Creek Task Force

who led the Aug. 7 expedition, said the event offered a hands-on experience in its approach to educating people. “Our goal is to get kids into the outdoors and try to inspire an awareness and a joy for nature,” she said. She said each event was different and offered information on wetlands wildlife, insects, trees and other nature related topics with a common goal connected to the natural world around them. “It is just to get kids connected to the outdoors and help them have an appreciation for it and enjoy it,” she said. “We want them to realize that we are connected to the outdoors and that our resources come from it and we need to help protect and take care of it.” Sherry Gutierrez and her son, Benjamin, have attended multiple playday events. She said they both enjoy the events. “My son really loves going on the hikes and See PLAY DAY, A15

center could save $1 million By KEVAN MOORE

kmoore@soundpublishing.com

The Bremerton City Council on Wednesday is likely to move ahead with a plan to issue general obligation bonds to save money on its portion of the Norm Dicks Government Center. In 2003, the city partnered with the county and Kitsap County Consolidated Housing Authority, now known as Housing Kitsap, to purchase and develop the government center. The Housing Kitsap bonds can’t be paid off until July, so the city’s new bonds will be issued sometime this year, but held in escrow until the old ones can be redeemed. By refinancing, officials estimate a total debt service savings of $1,320,706 during the remaining life of the bonds, with the city’s savings estimated at $741,718. The new bonds would expire at the same

Officials hope new bonds will save more than $1 million in debt service on the Norm Dicks Government Center. time as the current ones. The city can only issue up to $10 million in bonds in any given year in order to achieve a “bank qualified” rating and officials estimate that the new bond issue should come in at just under $6 million. If the council moves forward with the plan, Financia l Ser v ices Director Becky Hasart

is expected to time the bond sale to get the best interest rates possible. Moving forward with new bonds on the government center this year will also give the city a chance to refinance its line of credit for $9 million worth of debt it owes for parking facilities at the Kitsap Conference Center sometime next year.

The annual energy savings for the two farms is estimated to be 7,600 kWh, or $755 combined. The county estimates that the investment will take 24 years to repay itself. The program is part of the county’s Energy Efficiency & Conservation Plan which was adopted last year. The goal is to reduce countywide energy use by 30 percent by 2020, with the energy year 2009 as a baseline. The program also seeks to encourage renewable energy use with a goal of 10 percent by 2020.

Olsen said she was shocked to see how much of the cold she produced when electricity escaped the doors of the freezers making ice for her milk cooling operation.

In recent months, as the county leadership started to face the 2013 budget cycle, Dist. 1 Commissioner Rob Gelder has floated the idea of perhaps reducing the total number of staff in an effort to give better pay as a way to keep effective and talented people from job hopping.

internal zoo is to take antibiotics. They kill off a number of microbes. If you’re lucky, that will include any organisms making you ill, but you’ll also lose some of the “good” organisms that you harbor within you. The beneficial bacteria in your gut, for example, will likely take a direct hit. “Many microbes in the gut don’t simply co-exist with us, but are necessary for healthy digestion, metabolism and nutrition. While broadspectrum antibiotics are useful in treating certain infections, it’s also clear such treatment can disrupt our beneficial microbes,” Mixter said. Another important point is that microbes are far from passive passengers, just riding around on us. “They are metabolically active,” Dr. Phillip Tarr of Washington University at St. Louis, one of the lead researchers who performed the study, said to the media. “We now have to reckon with them like we have to reckon with the ecosystem in a forest or a body of water.” The microbes living on and in you vary a lot by what part of your body they call home. Your guts have one flourishing community of microbes, your nose another. The recent study surveyed the microbes on specific locations in many individuals using DNA typing. Microbes are very diverse on all persons and carry literally millions of microbial genes – many more

than are in the genetic makeup of an individual. And some of the genes are useful to us: it looks like genes from bacteria in our intestines help lead to the digestion of certain fats and proteins. We couldn’t function well without them. “These studies have been coming for a long time,” Mixter told me. “We’re gaining more and more insight into ways certain microbes benefit humans. Microbes have a bad reputation for causing infectious disease, but it’s clear that most microbes associated with the body have beneficial effects, not harmful ones.” Research done by the National Institutes of Health is on-going and covers the whole waterfront of many different types of studies. We often take it for granted, accepting new medical treatments and technologies that are spun off from basic research without considering all of the time and resources required for scientists to make the key advances in basic knowledge that revolutionize medicine. Ours is a complicated society, but the scientific research we collectively support yields real dividends for all of us. Let’s here it for the researchers — and for the beneficial zoo of microbes in all of us. Dr. E. Kirsten Peters, a native of the rural Northwest, was trained as a geologist at Princeton and Harvard.

City to spend County approves extra vacation car tab money By Greg Skinner

gskinner@soundpublishing.com

By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com

B r e m e r t o n ’ s Transportation Benefit District Board, made up of city council members, is set to meet this week to finalize plans for spending about $250,000 next year on preserving non-residential streets. The money comes from the city council’s 5-4 decision last December to impose a $20 fee on city residents registering their cars and trucks. The money is collected by the state and then forwarded to the city two months later for transportation related projects. At the time of the vote, the council decided to seek a $20 tax, the maximum allowable under, law rather than $15. A choice to keep the Kitsap County government from grabbing the $5 away from the city. There was sixth month waiting period before the fees could actually be collected, but the transportation board already has a list of 48 projects for 2013 that will cost an estimated $250,900. Revenue projections for 2013 show the city raising $420,354 through the car tax. Funding is set to last through the middle of 2015 and any extension beyond that will have to be voted on by the board. Some of the work under consideration this week includes road projects in 2013 on Riddell Way, from the county line to Wheaton

A complete list of the proposed projects is available on the city’s website. The transportation board is set to meet immediately following the city council’s business meeting at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday.

It doesn’t happen very often, but one way Kitsap County can compete with other governments headhunting their best staff is to offer a bump up in vacation time. The Board of County Commissioners Monday gave Kitsap County Resources Conservation manager Autumn Salamack an extra week of vacation each year going forward for four years and a one-time bonus of 16 extra vacation hours in an effort to keep her from taking a job elsewhere. Kitsap County Special Projects manager Eric Baker made the recommendation to the BOCC on Monday, which commissioners approved on the consent agenda. It’s just one of a “host of tools” that the county could use to keep a

County on the national map for energy conservation. “It would be tough to bring [a replacement] up to speed quickly,” Commissioner Charlotte Garrido said. Garrido said that Salamack acted as the county’s guide through conservation efforts and that her role was “critical” in the county’s investments in conservation with federal dollars. Salamack leads Energy Efficiency & Conservation Plan which was adopted last year. The goal is to reduce countywide energy use by

An increase in salary to retain a staff member becomes a larger discussion that involves unions, but other areas of compensation can be considered, Barker said. “Actual salary is a larger issue,” Baker said. “That was never part of the discussion.” Salamack has been with the county for a year and is considered “key” to the county’s conservation efforts.

and hailing cabs, and, most importantly, he knows that the water inside the in-room refrigerator isn’t free. Perhaps this is partly why he worried about my summer vacations with young babysitters. Kara, Becca and I were like puppies whose backyard gate had been left open. We ate at the breakfast “buffet” which ended up not being “all you can eat,” and we chose valet parking because, well, when we pulled up to the hotel a guy came along and told us he’d park the car for us. Using a GPS, we circled Boston’s Back Bay more times than necessary (channeling Chevy Chase: “Hey, look kids, there’s Boston University! Fenway! Boston University again!”), but our dilemma did not lead, as it does with Dustin, to an argument about who’s better with directions and who lost the television remote two months ago. My sitters had a free vacation; of course, they deferred to me. I mean ... It was yet another lesson in community: who says family vacations have to be “just family”? I didn’t necessarily need to take a babysitter with me; I wanted to take one. And throughout our trips, we all learned some valuable lessons about humanity, kindness and generosity. A hotel in Boston spontaneously upgraded our room and delighted in our respons-

them and we developed protections against unintended consequences.” Lent said that six months from now, the council should be ready to take action one way or the other on marijuana gardens. “I would assume they would have enough information for council to make a decision,” she said. “If they took into consideration (Lubovich’s) point of view, and wanted to be on the safe side, they would probably vote against gardens. But, we can at least identify where it might or might not be allowed in the entire city.” For her part, Lent noted

that she took an oath of office as mayor to uphold the state and federal constitutions and, as such, is often obligated to take a cautious approach. On a personal level, she’s also uncomfortable with marijuana gardens. “I would say that I agree with the federal prohibition,” she said. “They’re looking at the broad spectrum of all 50 states. Each state has made their own laws, but what’s happening as lawsuits come out against states with regulations against the feds? The last thing we want to do is spend taxpayer money on litigation when it can be avoided. That’s the big picture perspective and one of the nice things about having in-house counsel at the city.”

that person would have been Dustin. This summer, it was first Kara, and then her older sister Becca. But the boys, who don’t have cousins or extended family in the area, benefited as well. It was as if we were traveling with their aunt or sister or cousin — someone willing to go to the hotel pool at 11 p.m. or stay up late watching movies when I was already ready for bed. In other words: Dustin didn’t know what he was talking about! I highly recommend this setup to military spouses dealing with a deployment. Although, it need not be a babysitter; any traveling companion will do. It’s a win-win situation. The babysitter or friend gets a free vacation (plus another bonus — keep reading), you are less lonely and the kids are happy. My trips this summer with Kara and Becca are ones I will never forget. I don’t think they will, either. (My apologies to their future spouses. More on this in a minute.) Before I get too far, however, I should stop and tell you that when my husband and I travel, he is the adult. Dustin is much more worldly than I am. He knows about tipping

es: the boys dancing in the lobby, screaming “Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!” and the babysitter awing over the special key for the elevator. A toll booth operator in New Hampshire patiently (never mind the traffic) gave us directions when we were headed the wrong way. At Aloft, in Lexington, Mass., an employee gave the boys Matchbox cars, then smiled at me and said, “I see how hard you’re working.” The point is, had these been ordinary family vacations, I might have been in a Smiley bubble, hyperfocused on my husband and boys. We would have retreated to our room as if we were taking a holiday from the rest of the world. But my family of five was not together this summer, so the boys and I took a trip with and among the community. We were open to the possibility that people around us — even strangers — could make our vacation something better. And over and over again, they did. After so much generosity and kindness, it’s only fair that I give something back. And, boy, did I! Free food and lodging weren’t the only things my young babysitters received this summer. They also got an education in traveling with three children. My gift to humanity: two less females at risk for unwed, teenage pregnancy.

coming to the trails,” she said. “Even though he hears some of the same things every year, he always learns something new.” She said the events inspired a passion for birds in Benjamin, and the family had bought binoculars and field guides to help him build upon that passion. Betty Fabry attended the event with her grandchildren Avery and Soren Vanas, both of whom said they also enjoyed birds. Avery said she especially liked watching the ducks as they crossed the pond behind the interpretive center. “I really like the ducks,” Avery said. “I like watching them get in a line and follow each other.” The entire group stopped many times during the hike to explore trees and plants and many other natural wonders. One of the highlights of the event was when a pair of young bald eagles were spotted in the trees above the trail. The entire group stopped and watched the eagles as Kilkenny explained that the young birds of prey were darkly feathered until they became four or five years of age and then developed the white and dark markings familiar to most as the national emblem of the United States. The next play day event will be held Sept. 22 and will focus on trees. Zabinski said the event was one of many in the area and future play days as well as other nature events can be found by visiting www.greatpeninsula.org.

Silverdale 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament The Silverdale Shootout 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament was cofounded by Mark Stevens and Chris Koebelin as a fun, family oriented sports event. Now in its sixth year, the event draws participants of all ages, from fourth-grade to adult. This year’s event is Aug. 18 and 19 at Kitsap Mall in Silverdale. The Silverdale Shootout was first held six years ago at the Silverdale Beach Hotel and continued to call the hotel its home until 2010. In 2011, the event — having outgrown the hotel venue — moved to Old Town Silverdale while scouting out a new permanent home. This year marks the Shootout’s first time in its new, permanent location at the Kitsap Mall.

Marvin Williams of Bremerton, a former Atlanta Hawk now playing for the Utah Jazz, will participate in this year’s Silverdale 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament.

Event organizers say Kitsap Mall is ideal because of its central location, ample parking and large, smooth paved area for the courts. “Working with the mall staff has been terrific and we’re excited to be at our new location” Stevens said. New to the event this year is a partnership with Marvin Williams, NBA player and Bremerton native. Event producers are working with Williams, who has played for the Atlanta Hawks and is now a small forward for the Utah Jazz, to help raise funds for the Marvin Williams Family Center — a local nonprofit dedicated to working with area youth. Williams will sign autographs both days and will

present awards to, and take photographs with, the winning teams. The Shootout consists of three games on Aug. 18 and single-elimination bracket competition on Aug. 19. In addition, players can compete in a 3-point contest and a slam dunk contest. The Shootout features a beer garden presented by Hale’s Ales. Other food and beverage vendors will be represented. Other vendors include Costco, Hawaiian Shaved Ice, Kettle Corn, and Legend Harley-Davidson of Silverdale. Kitsap County Fair & Stampede Top 40 country music artist Jerrod Niemann See WEEK, Page 5

Taking care of certain foot conditions early will prevent them from developing into problems that are more serious, uncomfortable, and difficult to treat. Ingrown toenails may seem minor to many people, but they can pierce the skin and allow bacteria to enter. Pay attention to heel pain too, as it can indicate a fracture, a tight Achilles tendon, or a pinched nerve. It can also be the result of tissue inflammation. Pain in the back of the foot behind the ankle could be Achilles tendonitis. If not treated early, it could get worse and the tendon can rupture. Have ankle sprains treated early, or they can contribute to instability in the ankle. New patients welcome and seen on the same day. Early & late appointments available. Most insurances accepted.

Young winery turns Olympic Peninsula town into little Italy NW Wines T hough he grew up far from wine country, David Volmut always had an idea that the passion he was born with would lead him to a better life. Volmut was raised in an Italian family in the Midwest, where wine on the dinner table was ubiquitous. “It’s part of my heritage,” he said. “I learned that wine and food go hand in hand. It’s part of the meal like salt and pepper.” After graduating from the University of Kansas

him to have a working vineyard before he could sell wine were a deterrent. Meanwhile, his wife, Jennifer, got a job with Battelle in the Olympic Peninsula town of Sequim, one of the sunniest places west of the Cascade Mountains. The peninsula and the San Juan Islands are growing wine regions, so they made the decision to move there. Volmut focuses primarily on Italian grape varieties grown in the Columbia Valley, including Barbera, Dolcetto, Primitivo, Nebbiolo and Pinot Grigio. Nebbiolo, grown in the Piedmont region Italy, is considered one of the finest red wine grapes in the world, though few have been successfully made on the West Coast. His first vintage was from the 2009 vintage, and his rosé immediately gained attention from professional wine judges and critics. Volmut has been able to use quality winemaking and out-of-themainstream varieties to quickly distinguish Wind Rose amid the more than 1,300 winemakers in the Pacific Northwest. So far, Volmut produces fewer than 1,000 cases annually, and he has no

Reflections on random things since returning to the U.S. O

h, it’s all random stuff here today. There’s no beginning, middle or end. I can’t tie it up into a neat tidy package but I know for a fact there are at least three, maybe four, people that definitely read this blog, so thank you and I lift my cup of coffee to the memory of your smiles. Well, actually this segues nicely into the fact that my Dad offered to make coffee and my Mom said that he should show us how to use the machine (we didn’t have one in the U.K.). NO! No, having Dad make me

cleverdon chronicles By jennifer cleverdon coffee was one of the reasons I moved stateside, I politely reminded my mother. She said, “I thought that was the case.” Still, he showed Ben and the coffee came out pretty good. Random stuff: n Americans’ use (and abuse) of language. I was talking to a “guidance coun-

selor” at the credit union and she was speaking to us about the major banks and how they “fee” you and how you can get “fee-ed” if you aren’t careful. Use of a noun in a verb-like fashion. Interesting. Also interesting that you have to be careful which cashpoint, or ATM, machine you use. In the U.K., you can use different banks’ machines and not get charged. Not the case over here. n Haven’t emptied out all the suitcases yet, have no mobile/cell phone provider as yet and, dear Lord, it has been two days since I’ve

The firm tannins and savory finish call for London broil served with a mushroom sauce or a bowl of teriyaki. n Wind Rose Cellars 2009 Bravo Rosso, Washington, $20: This is a blend of Primitivo (46 percent), Barbera (44 percent), Dolcetto (4 percent), Nebbiolo (4 percent) and Cabernet Sauvignon, and it sends out aromas of cherry, cranberry, licorice, rose hips, lilac and cedar. The drink is lively, fruity and lighter bodied than you might expect. There’s a follow-through of cherry and red licorice, joined by strawberry, plum with orange juice acidity. Its tannin structure is remarkably low. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine. Visit www.winepressnw.com.

Reversing a dangerous health trend in America J

ust by looking at the medal count from this year’s Olympics in London, one might think of the United States as a country of athletes. If only it were so. Yes, Americans are still dominating many sports, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that a dismal state of health and physical fitness plagues the country. According to a survey conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2011, the U.S. population is the third heaviest in the world, behind the Pacific islands of Kiribati and American Samoa. More than two thirds of all Americans are overweight; more than one third are obese and struggle with numerous weight- and lifestyle-related illnesses such as diabetes and heart disease. While the obesity crisis continues to worsen across the nation, some parts are harder hit than others. Based

food & HEALTH By Timi Gustafson on a Gallup poll taken in 2011, the city of Evansville, Ind., has the fattest population in the U.S., with nearly 40 percent of its residents being obese. What’s even more alarming is that few Evansvillers seem to see this as a problem. In fact, many take great pride in calling their town “the nicest place to live in the U.S.” Among the things that make Evansville so nice is the annual “West Side Nut Club Fall Festival,” a weeklong binge fest specializing in fried foods, including fried brain sandwiches, a local specialty. The place is also known as a test market of sorts for the restaurant industry. “Ever heard of the McDiner? Did you ever eat pizza at McDonald’s? […] That was just one of the

many perks about dining in Evansville: We were guinea pigs,” wrote Jessica Levco, a writer who grew up in what she still calls her “sweet River City.” Not everyone in town, however, thinks that being “fat and happy” is a sustainable formula. Sam Rogers, a PR manager at a local hospital, says the high rate of obesity creates lots of problems for the city. “When

I’m walking around the halls, here’s what I see: Bigger wheelchairs, bigger beds, and bigger ambulances. We had to get a lift team to move bigger patients. […] The cost of our lift team is $150,000 annually.” But, he added, “Our bariatric business is booming. We have three to five surgeries each week.” Still, city officials say they are determined to have Evansville lose its title as America’s obesity capital. “I don’t think it is particularly good news in our area,”

Stephen Austin said in an interview with the Daily Mail Reporter. Austin is mayor of neighboring Henderson, which is part of the larger metropolitan region that was included in the poll. Indeed, some initiatives to curb Evansville’s particularly high obesity rate have already been taken. Under the leadership of Lacy McNear, a registered dietitian at the local St. Mary’s Medical Center, a program called “Smart Futures Pediatric Weight Management” has been designed to help children and parents to make healthier food choices and engage in more regular exercise. “We’re hoping that [following the program] is a lifestyle change,” McNear said in an interview with the Evansville Courier & Press. Participating families are given consultation in basic dietetics over the course of six weeks. The hope is that when parents see positive changes in their kids, they will follow suit. It could be the beginning of major turnaround. Who knows? Evansville’s story, of

course, is America’s story. On the one hand, there is growing awareness that obesity is a great threat to our public health (and health care system) and that something must be done. On the other hand, there are the ag, food manufacturing, and restaurant industries that cannot conceive changes in our eating habits as anything other than loss of business. So they fight tooth and nail to maintain the status quo. And then, there are ingrained habits and preferences that are hard to break. The vast majority of Americans still consider their food choices as a personal matter and exercise of individual freedom that should not be regulated or interfered with. That’s understandable, but the consequences are plain to see.

because we learn from stories like mine. And people need to know that there are alternatives to abusive environments — like the YWCA. My wife, my sons, and my friends have spent a lot of time helping me cleanse those negative memories from my character.” Evans has since remarried to a loving and supportive man, and she has a fulfilling job as a paraeducator in a Kitsap school district where she helps children overcome adversity. Her life has drastically changed from that dark night so many years ago. “The YWCA helped counsel me and make me whole again,” she said. “Because I had been broken.” “Walk in her Shoes” n Date: Sept. 8, 5 p.m.

n Walk: The walk starts at the Amy Burnett Gallery, 408 Pacific Ave., Bremerton. Cost to participate in the high-heel walk is $50 and includes a T-shirt and admission to the shoe auction and reception. Teams are encouraged to sign-up.

remerton — Victoria Evans suffered horrific domestic abuse, beyond even the most chilling television courtroom drama. Though her story happened more than 30 years ago, her memories are too raw and she’s asked to not have the details printed. “I was in an abusive situation that blew up,” Evans said. “And it was life threatening.” Thankfully, Evans — who is using an alias to protect her family members — survived the nightmarish assault and was able to escape the dangerous relationship. Evans credits the Kitsap YWCA ALIVE Shelter with giving her and her two children the support they needed. They lived at the shelter where they were fed, clothed and counseled. “The shelter gave me hope and support and love,” Evans said. “And they didn’t even know me.” In its 34th year, the Kitsap YWCA ALIVE Shelter frequently has a waiting list. Along with the shelter, the YWCA offers support with legal advocacy, children’s services, support groups, a clothing bank and help transitioning to permanent housing.

abuse and to walk in challenging shoes. If you aren’t able to borrow a pair, a variety of shoes will be available at the walk. If traipsing in high heels just isn’t your thing, event organizer Tracy McConaughy said it’s perfectly fine to wear more sensible shoes. “YWCA of Kitsap recently launched the ‘There’s no Y without You’ campaign,” McConaughy said. “... [T]he YWCA serves over 6,000 Kitsap residents each year. This event will be an opportunity to gather, have fun and allow the YWCA of Kitsap to continue to make a difference for families.” A shoe auction will follow the walk, complete with hors d’oeuvres and music. Seattle’s KOMO 4 News anchor Denise Whitaker will emcee the evening. All money raised will benefit the YWCA ALIVE Shelter. Bremerton businessman Guy Stitt knows first hand the effects of domestic violence. Growing up in California, he watched as his mother endured abuse almost every weekend for several years. He wonders what life would have been like if his mother had found the help she needed. Instead, Stitt grew up in a stressful situation where his mom would leave for days at a time and Stitt relied on the kindness of others to feed and shelter him. “People don’t want to see domestic abuse. It’s very hard to look at it,” Stitt said. “A lot of people aren’t willing to share, but I’m willing to tell my story

Steve Rice gets fitted for high-heeled shoes by Lisa Stirrett for YWCA’s upcoming ‘Take a Walk in Her Shoes,’ to raise money for YWCA’s ALIVE Shelter. Contributed photo Architect Steve Rice, a long-time YWCA supporter, wasn’t aware of all the services that the Y offered until his firm helped remodel the headquarters in Bremerton. “They let us into their world and got us familiar with the very critical role they play in the community,” Rice said. Rice is such a proud supporter that he agreed to don high heels for a promotional video for the upcoming “Take a Walk in Her Shoes Walk & Auction.” You can catch a glimpse of Rice and other wobbly-walking men at www.ywcakitsap.

People helping pets...pets helping people. Rowdy is a 6yr old shorthaired brown tabby with bullseye markings.

Rowdy had been a mostly outdoor cat until a relative of his owner realized how dangerous this was for him and helped make him an “indoor cat”. She and her husband worked for months getting Rowdy accustomed to life indoors. Once he decided people weren’t all that bad he became quite friendly. He likes to be petted and brushed as long as you stay away from the tip of his tail-old battle woundsand stop when he’s had enough. Rowdy does ok with other cats but he’d prefer a home where he was the only one, maybe sharing with one other. He’ll be hanging out at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping to meet his new family.

BUILDING A STRONGER KITSAP COUNTY

TREMENDOUS THANKS

A message from Dave Foote, Executive Director

Thank you! The year 2012 will be a year to remember. Not only is it the 75th anniversary of the beginning of United Way in Kitsap, but it is also the year that United Way completed the long and sometimes winding and tedious road to the creation of the United Way NonProfit Center. There are many people to thank for helping the United Way reach this milestone in our history; many individuals and businesses that helped support this effort to remodel our building by pledging their support through capital contributions. Other major contributors to this project include: ■ The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation ■ The Boeing Company ■ Kitsap Credit Union ■ Senator Patty Murray and the Department of Urban Development Special Project ■ Washington State Department of Commerce Capital Projects ■ The Gerald W. Lee Estate ■ The Warren Hicks Estate ■ A bequest by Margaret Ostermeyer ■ KPS Health Plans employee charitable giving committee Most of all, I need to thank the members of the Board of Directors who currently serve and those that served back to 2002, when I was hired as the Executive Director of United Way of Kitsap County. The dream of having this newly remodeled facility was the brainchild of several board members who saw the need to be more visible in the community and to have a place where we could share space with other non-profits. I am thankful to the United Way Board of Directors for the trust they placed

in me and the support they provided that enabled me to lead United Way through to the finish of the dream to create the United Way of Kitsap County Non-Profit Center. I am thankful to all the United Way agencies who also showed their support and confidence in the United Way as we struggled through the recession; trusting in the United Way knowing that we would do everything we could to support their efforts on behalf of those in need throughout Kitsap County, knowing that at the end of this particular journey we would be stronger and more capable of serving our community. To the design team at Rice Fergus Miller, who listened carefully to our sometimes scattered thoughts as we described our vision for this building; thank you. They took our ideas and refined them, turning what was a mishmash of offices into a functional layout for the conference area and offices that is highly organized and efficient. A thanks also goes to our general contractor, Beisley, Inc. These folks were super to work with. They were extremely well prepared and very professional. Their work was superior and their daily communications with us was outstanding. We are very thankful for their dedication to ensuring that we were satisfied with their craftsmanship. Finally, on behalf of myself and the dedicated board members who have been a part of this journey since 2002, I would like to thank all of those individuals too numerous to list in this letter that contributed precious dollars to help us create this center in the heart of downtown Bremerton. Without their trust we would not have been able to complete this journey. As we continue into the future to serve the needs of Kitsap County we look forward to the next 75 years. Thank you Kitsap County! David L. Foote Executive Director United Way of Kitsap County

Jerry Garner, who was First Vice President at the time, suggested that the group move to a more prominent and professional environment. In 2006 discussions regarding moving to a new location began to take on serious consideration. The board considered moving the United Way of Kitsap County to Silverdale. After further investigation it was determined that the cost would be too great and the project in Silverdale was scrapped. At that point the board began looking for existing buildings that could be purchased and remodeled. The search for leasable space uncovered a new listing, the Cascade Building at 647 4th Street in Downtown Bremerton. In January 2007 the United Way of Kitsap County made an offer on the building and began the process of conducting a feasibility study to gauge community support on the purchase of the building and subsequent remodel. The acquisition created the United Way of Kitsap County Non-Profit Center. The concept was to create a building that could be leased to other non-profits at below-market rents and provide on-site conference space for training, seminars and conferences for building tenants and the community as well. At the same time Foote secured, through a partnership with the Kitsap Regional Library,

the Foundation Center and Cooperating Collection libraries. This provided an asset on the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas for non-profit agencies the ability to do capacity building research. Prior to this required traveling to King or Pierce counties. The United Way of Kitsap County became only one of approximately 12 United Ways across the country to have a library on site. On July 31, 2006 the deal was closed and on August 6 the move-in began. Shortly after moving into the building one of the tenants vacated. This gave the United Way the opportunity to lease space to their first nonprofit tenant, Lutheran Community Services. The next tenant was Catholic Community Services. It has since continued to grow.

In late 2007 the United Way of Kitsap County began planning its capital campaign, only to run into the recession. Raising capital dollars was extremely difficult. “At one point we thought that we may have to put the project on hold after being turned down by both the Bremerton and Kitsap County Community Development Block Grant Programs and the Seattle Birkenfeld Trust,” said Foote. “We began talking with Rice Fergus Miller, who started putting our ideas on paper. After going through several designs with cost analysis we finally decided on a plan to remodel the United Way space on the first floor as well as some of the vacant space on the second floor.” In 2011 the United Way of Kitsap County

secured a HUD special projects grant for $1,217,500, a Washington State Department of Commerce Foundation grant for $605,000 and a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant for $120,000. The Boeing Employees Fund provided additional funds, along with trust and estate dollars, in addition to $400,000 the United Way of Kitsap County was able to raise during their capital campaign. In June 2011 the United Way moved into a smaller space inside the building to prepare for construction. In late November 2011 the project was put out to bid and work began in earnest in January 2012. The building remodel is now complete. There is a fully functional non-profit center with two conference rooms on the first floor that can convert into one large open space, seating up to 75 individuals. Two smaller conference rooms on the second floor can accommodate between five and 15 people. All of the space is available to tenants of the building as well as to the community at large. Tenants in the building include: n Lutheran Community Services n Catholic Community Services n Leadership Kitsap n Washington CASH n A+ Advantage Counseling n Puget Sound Renters Association n Mario D. White: Fully Alive Therapy

What will your CEO do to support United Way?

Elliot Gregg

CEO/President, United Way Supporter, Numbers Guru

For 75 years, the United Way of Kitsap County has been helping friends and neighbors build a stronger community. Inspired by their impact, our staff, and our CEO, work hard to find new ways to lend a hand every year.

UNITED WAY OF KITSAP COUNTY - COMMUNITY IMPACT AREAS 1. Helping children and youth succeed: We envision a Kitsap County where all children are safe, nurtured and valued and are provided the opportunity to succeed as individuals and to develop life skills.

2. Building caring communities: We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals and families have adequate food, clothing, shelter and are financially stable.

3. Promoting health and wellness: We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals are safe and have access to basic health care and wellness services.

Once, our CEO even agreed to sell duct tape, by the inch, that was used to duct tape him to a wall. This year, employees rallied behind Elliot as he agreed to auction off time spent on a billboard to help strengthen the efforts of United Way. Today, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find him. Honk and show your support as you drive by the HWY 3 reader board near the Kitsap Way off-ramp from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on August 17. We encourage you to LIVE UNITED. Give, advocate, or volunteer by visiting unitedwaykitsap.org

4. Supporting vulnerable and aging populations: We envision a Kitsap County where adults with disabilities and aging seniors are provided quality assistance and care. We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals have the ability to be self-sufficient and live as independently as possible.

Over the last few years the United Way of Kitsap County has received creative help by local business leaders in the community. Rice Fergus Miller holds a tricycle race down 4th Street in Bremerton every year in support of the United Way of Kitsap County. Steve Rice, David Fergus and Mike Miller dress up in costume and race down the street. Other prominent Kitsap County notables, including Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent, Larry Eyer, the Executive Director of Kitsap Community Resources and Major James Baker of the Salvation Army have participated.

OUR VISION We will build a stronger Kitsap County by mobilizing our community to improve people’s lives. To do this we will: n 1. Energize and inspire people to make a difference. n 2. Craft human care agendas within and across our community. n 3. Build coalitions around these agendas. n 4. Increase investments in these agendas by expanding and diversifying our own development efforts and supporting those of others. n 5. Measure, communicate and learn from the impact of others. n 6. Reflect the diversity of the communities we serve.

Kitsap County employees raise money for the United Way of Kitsap County through an event they call ‘Kitsap Idol’. Employees hold a potluck and “sell” lunches while individuals perform karaoke. The winners are judged by the total of donations in their individual tip jars. During the lunch and karaoke the Kitsap County employees hold a silent auction. All of the proceeds from the lunch, karaoke and auction support the United Way of Kitsap County.

Kitsap Credit Union CEO Elliot Gregg allowed himself to be duct taped to a wall in order to raise pledge dollars for the United Way. Gregg raised pledges by selling lengths of duct tape. When all the tape was applied, he was completely stuck to the wall and from there proceeded to give his monthly report to the board while suspended from the wall.

NATIONAl FOCUS/lOCAl FOCUS Congratulations to united Way on 75 years of serving Bremerton and the Kitsap community. The City appreciates your new look on our new 4th Street. Mayor Patty Lent

The United Way of America is a nonprofit organization that works with close to 1,300 local United Way offices across the country. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, the United Way functions as a means to pool the resources and efforts of fundraising and support of a wide swath of charitable organizations. Each United Way office works to meet the needs of the local community in which it is based. By identifying community issues relating to education, income and health, the United Way of Kitsap County works in partnership with schools, government agencies,

businesses, organized labor, financial institutions,community development corporations, voluntary and neighborhood associations and the faith community. The specific mission of the United Way of Kitsap County is to mobilize community resources to improve people’s lives. The future focus for Kitsap County is on health: Through Project Access Northwest, the United Way of Kitsap County, in cooperation with Harrison Medical Center, seeks to meet the needs of the uninsured and under-insured here in Kitsap County.

ONE gIFT hElPS, bUT EvErYONE’S gIFT TOgEThEr CAN ChANgE lIvES. n Your United Way investment, because it is magnified by the investments of others, has the power to bring about change that matters in your community. n When you contribute, you help more than one person or one charity. United Way is the collective power of people working toward long-term solutions, not short-term fixes.

UNITED WAY SAVED MY LIFE. I was raised by a system of private and public agencies who took in kids like me and who were supported by the then called Community Chest. Today that organization is called United Way. My mother and father were alcoholics who could not care for my brother and sister and I. When I was six years old they abandoned us and left us in a Catholic orphanage in New Orleans. The orphanage was supported by the local Community Chest. We stayed there for two years and were looked after by the nuns. We lived in a big room with lots of other kids and slept in bunk beds . It seems like we ate gumbo every night and played in the back yard on tires swinging from ropes attached to a tree in the back yard. We missed our parents even though they had not been good parents and had beat us many times when they were drinking. Without the orphanage, I am certain we would have been on the street. After a couple of years, we were taken in by an aunt and uncle who served as our guardians and were paid a small sum by the State of Texas. We moved 13 times before I was 12. When I was 13, my aunt and uncle moved to Seattle, Washington and asked if I would like to join them. I was living in New Mexico at the time with a foster parent. I agreed to move to Seattle and when we first arrived I could barely read or write and had no friends. It was not long before I started hanging out at the Wallingford Boys & Girls Club, a United Way agency. I remember playing for a basketball coach who was a tough old truck driver who showed me love and taught me a lot about life. I will never forget him and remember getting the first award of my life at the club - it was called a

Certificate of Merit and I still have it 60 years later. I loved the Boys and Girls Club and later in life went onto to become the President/CEO of the King County Boys and Girls Club. In my junior year in high school my aunt and uncle announced they were moving to Washington D.C. I told them I wanted to stay in Seattle and finish high school. I was the quarterback on the football team and had my first girlfriend. Once again I had to find a place to stay and once again I was helped by an agency supported by United Way. I was able to get into a foster home my junior year. My senior year I lived mostly with friends, took my showers at the Wallingford Boys and Girls Club, and even had to live out of my car the last month of my senior year. Without foster care and the local Boys and Girls club I would have been a street kid and would not have had the life I have had. With the help of others I was able to graduate from the University of Washington, and I have been the Mayor of both Bellevue and Bremerton and worked for the Boys and Girls Club for 25 years. So I have spent my life trying to give back to my community which I learned from growing up in a community that gave me the support I needed to get through a difficult time. I have made a financial contribution to the United Way Campaign every year for the past 45 years because I know from a personal basis how important it is to have a safety net for those who need help. We are the United Way and We are the Community Chest that only exists because WE care about our neighbors. Cary Bozeman (Former Mayor of Bremerton)

aroundkitsap Bainbridge island Review Proposed car tab fee gets initial approval: The Bainbridge Island City Council has given initial approval to a proposal to charge a $20 car tab license fee on all island vehicles. The final approval on the proposal could be less than two weeks away. An ordinance to form a transportation benefit district that would collect the fee when cars are registered was given an initial and unanimous approval at the council’s Aug. 8 meeting. A public hearing for the proposed transportation benefit district has been scheduled for Aug. 22. The council is expected to take a final vote on creating the new taxing district and car tab fee at that time. If the council approves the benefit district by the end of August, islanders could see a $20 fee imposed on their vehicles as soon as February. The purpose of the district is to raise money to pay for road repairs and other transportation projects. The city estimates that the fee could produce approximately $330,686 each year. — BainbridgeReview.com

Bremerton Patriot Bremerton man arrested for making “Aurora” threats: Bremerton resident Tracy Lee Wischhoefer, 26, was charged Aug. 13 in Kitsap County District Court with felony harassment after allegedly making threats on Facebook to kill people. He allegedly cited the Aurora massacre in which 12 people were killed in a Colorado movie theater showing “The Dark Knight Rises.” The weekend threat from Wischhoefer is the second from a Bremerton man in less than a month. Both made death threats on Facebook while citing the Colorado shooting. Nicholas Adam Purcell, also 26, was arrested July 28 after making threats on the popular social networking site to “top the Aurora Massacre.” Bremerton police interviewed Wischhoefer Aug. 12 at Anthony’s restaurant where he works in downtown Bremerton, but made no arrest. Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office deputies, meanwhile, spoke to his father and went to his residence where they saw weapons, body armor and ammunition in plain

sight. Deputies ultimately arrested him on an outstanding misdemeanor warrant and also booked him for felony harassment. The sheriff’s office was originally brought into the case “on an agency assist” to the Bremerton Police Department. — BremertonPatriot.com

Central Kitsap Reporter Donation brings the living dead and Santa Claus to library: Flesh-eating zombies have completed their invasion of the Kitsap Regional Library system, and they are not alone. The zombies have been joined by musical muppets, pointy eared Vulcans and even Santa Claus himself thanks to a donation of 4,500 DVDs made to the library. The DVDs, donated by Screen Life Games, a Seattle based gaming company that went out of business late last year, will go to replace worn or missing copies of items in the library catalog and also to enhance the library’s collection. KRL Collection Manager John Fossett said many of the DVDs were of out-ofprint or difficult to find items or simply completed series in the library’s collection. — CentralKitsapReporter. com

King County and North Kitsap firefighters went directly to the fire line to assist until reinforcements got there, Smith said. Those firefighters are now working to protect structures. It’s the first time this year that firefighters from North Kitsap have assisted elsewhere under the Washington State Fire Services Resource Mobilization Plan. The Taylor Bridge Fire is located six miles east of Cle Elum on State Route 10, milepost 90 in Kittitas County. Washington State Patrol Chief John Batiste authorized the mobilization of state firefighting resources at 3:30 p.m., Aug. 13, at the request of Kittitas County Fire District 7. — NorthKitsapHerald.com

Port Orchard Independent Local pastor intervenes in burglary: The pastor of

a local church helped stop a burglary the first week of August, according to a Port Orchard Police report. The suspect, 36-year-old Adam Dunn of Port Orchard, was arrested for second-degree burglary and possession of a burglary tool. He is held in Kitsap County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bond. According to the report, Terry Baker, pastor of The Christian Life Center in Port

Orchard, called police when he saw a man with a crowbar enter a building close to the Christian Life Center. The pastor first thought the man was the homeowner’s son, but called police after he saw the man pry open the garage door with the crowbar, police said. Port Orchard Police and Kitsap County Sheriff’s deputies surrounded the single-family home on

Best Housing Market in Years

Now is the Time to Buy!

Why rent when you can own?

Historic low interest rates!

The real estate market has taken a beating and home values have fallen pretty dramatically. The question is when will it hit the bottom and start to rebound? Well, the gurus are telling us it could be a full year or two before things improve. When the gurus are saying you shouldn’t buy, that is the time to DEFINITELY buy. This is known as contrarian investing. It is based on the idea that the only real way to make big money is to not follow the herd. The real estate market is going to rebound. It may drop a bit more, but how low can it really go? If you buy today, you are getting a great deal. Even if it takes a year or two to rebound, the price you pay today is going to be a pittance compared to the value of your home in 5 years. By that time, the real estate gurus on television will be revising their past statements about when the market would rebound.
