Rededication ceremony for Tomb of the Unknown Soldier draws hundreds
Navy wife accused of embezzling $14K from PTA

A rededication ceremony for Bremerton’s updated Tomb of the Unknown Soldier memorial drew hundreds of supporters and spectators this past weekend at Ivy Green Cemetery. The color guard presents the colors, above, and Bremerton resident Todd Best speaks to the crowd, at right. Best spearheaded an effort to update the memorial and clean up the cemetery that involved hundreds of volunteers from all over the community and several businesses that donated materials, hundreds of free meals and free labor. The donated materials alone cost about $40,000 and the amount of volunteer labor used would have taken the “price tag” into the six figures. By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Several hundred community members streamed into the Ivy Green Cemetery this past weekend for a rededication ceremony of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Bremerton is a replica of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. Bremerton’s replica is one of only three such memorials in the United States. And for those who hadn’t
been to the cemetery in a while, the tomb and its surroundings would be nearly unrecognizable. Back in August, Bremerton resident Todd Best spearheaded a massive cleanup of the cemetery that involved hundreds of volunteers and he’s been working ever since to make the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier a worthy memorial to those that have served this country and given the ultimate sacrifice. “We can’t forget those who have given us the freedom we sometimes take for granted,” Best said.
“They’re laid to rest now, but we have to give them the respect they so richly deserve.” Best said he heard about the dilapidated condition of the cemetery from a friend and went to see things for himself. “I was mad,” Best said. “I spent all day pulling weeds, unearthing grave markers of veterans and I absolutely started crying. And I’m not an emotional guy. I realized I had not even made a dent and said See UNKNOWN, A9
A local Navy wife stands accused of stealing more than $14,000 from the Clear Creek Elementary School Parent Teachers Association and leaving the organization’s savings account empty and the checking account overdrawn. Authorities claim that Clear Creek PTA treasurer and Silverdale resident Michelle Eley, 30, wrote checks to herself and for cash totaling $14,627 without authorization to do so. Money was also spent through electronic checks written to companies such as Target. Eley was booked in the Kitsap County Jail for theft in the first degree and later released without bail. K itsap Count y Sheriff ’s Office spokesperson Scott Wilson said the case was forwarded to the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office this week following a two-week investigation into the alleged embezzlement. Tomas Danaher, spokesperson for Naval Base Kitsap Bangor, where Eley’s husband is stationed, said that it would be inappropriate for the Navy to comment on a matter as it is under local jurisdiction. Eley’s alleged PTA embezzlement is the second to occur in the Central Kitsap School
District since 2010 when the former treasurer of Jackson Park Elementary School’s PTA was charged with theft for allegedly embezzling more than $18,000. That money was intended to be spent on reading awards, a sixth-grade graduation ceremony, a book fair and a yearbook. The Jackson Park PTA embezzlement was invesitaged by Navy criminal investigators. Nationally, embezzlement by PTA officers is the number one negative problem facing the association. D av i d Beil, Community Relations Director for SKSD, said district leaders were sorry to hear about the allegation. The state chapter works with local PTA to educate them on these matters, he said. “We don’t want this to overshadow the important work that occurs every day through PTA members at schools across CK,” he said. Beil said the district has no authority over PTA finances and that the problem was discovered by the PTA itself. Regardless, CKSD expects to continue a strong partnership with the PTA and offer any support it can to both the PTA and its members, he said. The president of the Clear Creek PTA first called the sheriff ’s

Unemployed veterans retraining catching on at O.C. College works to help veterans over financial hurdles By GREG SKINNER gskinner@soundpublishing.com
Most of the talk about new retraining money for older out of work veterans has focused on how fast the first 45,000 slots filled following its opening last spring. This week marks the start of the second fiscal year of the program with an additional 54,000 funded retraining slots at community colleges and technical schools across the country. Missing from the conversation is a financial hurdle created when the Department of Veterans Affairs started the program without a plan to cover tuition up front. Among the local unemployed veterans between the ages of 35 and 60 signing up for classes at Olympic College under the Veterans Retraining Assistance Program some homeless and poor veterans didn’t have the estimated $1,500 upfront money required to get started using the new benefit. VRAP is a collaboration between the Department of Veterans Affairs and the Department of Labor and is a provision of the Veterans Opportunity to Work to Hire Heroes Act of 2011, which Congress passed and President Barack Obama signed into law in November 2011. As of Monday, 62,000 applications were received by the Department of Veterans Affairs of which 49,000 were approved nationally. “We’re gratified that 45,000 unemployed Veterans can begin the retraining they need to compete for in-demand jobs,” said VA Undersecretary for Benefits Allison A. Hickey last week. “We’re going to maintain the momentum of our outreach to make sure we get the maximum of See RETRAINING, A13

Kilmer sits down for veterans roundtable
Kevan Moore/Staff Photo
Democratic 6th Congressional candidate Derek Kilmer, center, and Major General Timothy Lowenberg, right, heard from veterans in Bremerton on Monday. By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
State Senator Derek Kilmer, a Democrat and 6th Congressional candidate, along with Major General Timothy Lowenberg, the recently retired Adjutant General of Washington and chair of a group called Veterans for Kilmer, held a roundtable discussion at the Bremerton VFW on Monday morning. Nine people showed up to talk with Kilmer and the general about issues specifically affecting veterans. John Barelli, a Gig Harbor resident and former Navy counselor, who later said he knew Kilmer from attending the same church, spoke about various frustrations in dealing with the Veterans Administration. “If you’ve ever tried to call the Veterans Administration, you will pull your hair out,” he said. “You never get to talk to a person. You get to call and then you punch a few buttons and maybe they’ll get back to you.” Barelli also spoke highly of the men and the women at the VA, but cited a bureaucratic nightmare that makes it difficult for them to do their jobs and serve veterans effectively. “The people are there to do it and, frankly, the money is there for taking care of veterans,” Barelli said. “Getting the member and the care connected seems to be the disconnect.” Bremerton residents Mike and Diane Arnold also spoke about the challenges of getting quality healthcare for veterans. Mr. Arnold shared a story about having to get a couple of teeth pulled
and needing some bridge work. “The problem is that you come into the system and everybody comes in at the same time, but when you go to your next visit, you go 30 to 45 days out,” Arnold said. “So, they don’t get to work with you on a consistent basis. In other words, you have teeth pulled and the ones you have left are moving around, so that when they do an impression and you come back 45 days later, it doesn’t fit.” Kilmer said that, if elected, he will work with constituents in overcoming roadblocks like those described by Arnold and Barelli while also working on system-wide improvements. Lowenberg spoke about recent successes in the National Guard and the importance of getting soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines, along with their families, into the system sooner. “It’s quite often a family member who is more keenly aware of those symptoms,” he said. Lowenberg also said that, moving forward, there is room for improvement. “There are best practices and there are lessons that can be learned
and applied on a broader scale,” he said. “The successful engagements and programs should not be one-offs and they don’t have to be.” Lowenberg also spoke about Kilmer’s success as a state senator in helping veterans and their families. “One of the reasons I was so happy and proud to support Derek was to watch we he did as a key member of military and veterans joint committee in the house and senate,” he said. “With leadership from Derek and others, that committee really helped focus the Legislature on the fact that the military presence in Washington state is a huge economic engine -all of the services, all of the installations.” Lowenberg noted that it’s not just the jobs on the bases themselves, but the small businesses that work with and around them to contribute to the local and regional economy. Economic development was a theme that Kilmer expanded upon when talking about the possibility of across-the-board cuts in military spending, or what is called sequestration. “I’m very conscious that the naval presence in Kitsap County is directly and indirectly tied to about 54 percent of employment and it has enormous ramifications,” he said. “The good news is our parochial interest also fits our national interest. As the focus moves toward Asia, from a national security standpoint, we are well positioned.” Kilmer also cited his work in the Legislature establishing a new engineering program at Olympic College. “Part of that is to pro-
vide opportunities to our young people, but part of it is we heard from the shipyard that one of their biggest concerns was that they were having to look outside the state for engineers,” he said. “You know, the average engineer at the shipyard is over 50 years old.” Kilmer said the new engineering program
at OC will create a new pipeline to the shipyard and opportunities for local young so that, “our top export isn’t going to be our kids.” Kilmer also trumpeted legislation he worked on to streamline business licensing for veterans and their family members moving to Washington state and laws to crack

down on discrimination against veterans in housing and hiring. He also said that addressing homelessness among veterans should be a national mission. “Every veteran should have a home and it shouldn’t be under a freeway overpass,” Kilmer said.

The City of Bremerton’s rush to give its world class golf course complex at Gold Mountain over to a company managing the local conference center is nothing short of a leadership failure of the Mayor’s Office. It’s a failure that some believe will turn the well known and respected city golf course into another Bremerton Marina, unknowingly managed and subsidized by the many for the benefit of a few. All was lined up for Wednesday night’s Bremerton City Council vote, under the urging of Council President Jim McDonald, to affirm Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent’s plan to contract the golf complex to Columbia Hospitality, a company with no golf experience. In the last decade, particularly since the beginning of the “new economy” following the Great Recession, golf has lost millions of players. Many in the industry say the game’s shrinking demographic continues to dwindle as they search for new and innovative ways to appeal to people with less time and money for the game. While there is no record of Columbia’s ability to manage a golf course, one thing known is that the city already subsidizes the one city enterprise fund that Columbia Hospitality manages for them. Each year the city automatically gives $155,000 in Lodging Tax collected locally under a law designed to fund local tourism marketing, more than one third of the total collected annually. Councilmember Greg Wheeler has been the one questioning voice on the Bremerton City Council opposing the idea of the no-bid contract going to Columbia under the current plan. He promised to vote no on principle. Ridiculous is Council President Jim McDonald’s response to warnings of catastrophe at Gold Mountain by insisting that saving the jobs of two city employees should receive any weight whatsoever in the multi-million dollar decision to keep out at least two interested golf course management companies, with municipal course experience, over the idea that they may or may not replace the golf pro or course superintendent. With only a $36,000 margin of error between Gold Mountain profit and subsidies in the proposed 2013 budget, McDonald’s claim that the city can later pull out of the contract with Columbia, if they fail, suggests a continuation of casual laziness regarding the financial future of the city that’s barely afloat and trying to figure out the new reality of the post-recession economy.

The Central Kitsap commissioner has not seen fit to respond to emails or phone calls made to his office on this issue of the Chico roundabout. As such, I can only assume those of us living in Central Kitsap seemingly have no voice representing our interests at the county seat in Port Orchard. My frustration with the current construction of the roundabout at Chico Way and Silverdale Way continues to grow. The project has reached a stage that all paving and striping is complete and the roundabout is in use for everyone but those of us needing to access it from Chico Way. Instead, the county has chosen to keep Chico Way closed using the reasoning construction crews would be unsafe to have it opened up and that using it without the installation of the street lights would be unsafe. Why it’s safe without these street lights for use by everyone but Chico Way residents was never explained. There has been absolutely no construction activity all weekend, and yet the access to Chico Way remains closed. The inconvenience to residents aside – which the county has clearly been very unconcerned about – this is a matter of public safety. There is simply no way for fire, aid, and police vehicles to access Chico Way from Silverdale Way. In addition, transit and school bus routes are also impacted. The residents must walk to Eldorado or Silverdale Way to access transit services. I did finally receive a call back from Mr. Casteel following my conversation with Commissioner Garrido (thank you commissioner for your

efforts). Unfortunately, Mr. Casteel felt the roadway would be opened by Thanksgiving – two months from now. He offered nothing new other than the road being open by Thanksgiving. Now, I guess that is an improvement over New Years, but he clearly lacks the sense of urgency to get this road opened for area residents. I attended the most recent community meeting on this project, and again the county public works representative was unresponsive to the concerns and impacts raised by area residents, and Commissioner Josh Brown couldn’t see fit to be present and hear these concerns either. The road remains closed under a proclamation enacted by the Board of County Commissioners and I’m urging you to rescind that proclamation and order the roadway reopened. Whatever safety concerns exist with the safety of the construction crews can be easily mitigated with proper flagging operations and standard safety procedures in place in other project sites. The inconvenience to area residents and the public safety issues with delayed response times by first responders far outweigh the need for public works to keep Chico Way closed. On behalf of myself and the area residents, I am pleading with you to rescind the resolution passed by the BOCC and direct the roadway to be reopened. There is no reason it should remain closed and it’s literally a matter of public safety! Thank you for your consideration. Ron Mead Chico

Report tells the truth of The future of leadership salmon recovery Treaty Indian tribes know the watersheds of Western Washington better than anyone else because we have always lived in them. Over the past three years we have been looking at those watersheds to gauge progress toward salmon recovery. The result is our recently released State of Our Watersheds report that confirms we are losing the battle for salmon recovery. Habitat is being lost faster than it can be restored, and this trend is not improving. It’s causing a steady decline in salmon populations across the region that threatens tribal cultures, treaty rights and economies, and the quality of life for everyone who lives here. The report is the latest part of our Treaty Rights at Risk initiative to address the erosion of tribal treaty-reserved fishing rights from ongoing loss of salmon. The initiative is a call to action for the federal government to meet its trust responsibility to protect tribal treaty rights and its duty to recover salmon by leading a more coordinated and effective salmon recovery effort. The State of Our Watersheds report tracks key salmon habitat indicators over time – such as the condition of nearshore marine areas, forest habitat along our streams, and water quality and quantity – in 20 watersheds across western Washington. It includes data gathered from decades of tribal, state and federal projects, and will be updated
Being Frank
Billy Frank, Jr. Chairman Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission as new information becomes available. Some of the report’s findings include: • A 75 percent loss of salt marsh habitat in the Stillaguamish watershed is limiting chinook populations in the river system. • Herring stocks in the Port Gamble Klallam Tribe’s area of concern have declined from healthy to depressed because of degraded nearshore habitat. Herring are important food for salmon. • In the Chehalis River system, the Quinault Indian Nation estimates that culverts slow
or block salmon from reaching more than 1,500 miles of habitat. We all have made a huge investment in recovering salmon habitat in recent decades, but it hasn’t been enough. As the report shows, we are running out of time. We must be fierce in protecting salmon habitat for the treasure that it is. That includes stronger enforcement of existing laws aimed at recovering salmon habitat, controlling polluted stormwater runoff and putting a stop to development in river floodplains that are important to salmon habitat. We need to remember that the salmon is really us. All of us. And whatever happens to the salmon is going to happen to us. If we can’t protect the salmon and its habitat, then we can’t protect ourselves from the same things that are driving the salmon toward extinction.

Connecting the dots when it comes to local governing bodies becomes easier over time when you participate in local public meetings and events. For example, several issues I see cropping up on the Bremerton School Board meeting agenda have ties to items on the Bremerton City Council Agenda. City council items frequently tie into the Port of Bremerton and Kitsap County Agenda’s. Elected and appointed leaders of these local governing bodies must stay informed on issues that not only directly affect their organization, but must also keep their eyes on how the direct or indirect consequences of their decisions will affect or impact other local public agencies. There are times when I find the leadership decision making process to be clear and easily understood and there are certainly other times where I am left wondering where the heck a decision came from and why. So it is with some interest that I have been wanting to expand my understanding of the bigger picture comprising the public leadership world, by personally venturing out past the typical public meeting environment to something just as informational but

October surprises When the end draws near and prospects darken, and polls solidify in the wrong direction, and the base sinks lower than the toenail clippings of a Galapagos turtle, does the practiced political operative give up? No sir, they whip out their secret weapon. Not the candidate’s spouse. The real ace up the sleeve -- The October Surprise. Every campaign has one. Or more. It’s a piece of opposition research stashed away for a rainy day. For safe-keeping, behind glass, like a fire axe: “Open in the event of impending doom.” Something so incendiary it’s concealed in an asbestos-lined box buried deep in the back of the campaign manager’s underwear drawer. A last-minute revelation guaranteed to rip the skin off the opponent’s slick exterior and expose him or her to be the morally bereft, fire-breathing extremist everyone was secretly afraid they were.

the movers and shakers of the local leadership world can be a little intimidating but the time is past for all of us to play it safe and comfortable. Our region and community needs out of the box participation and thinking now more than ever if we are to move forward and succeed. The current form of self-government we enjoy needs the next generation of leaders to be participating and engaging in the process well before the assumption of an elected or appointed position if improvement to the quality of stewardship and leadership decision making is to evolve to a higher level.

Gold Mountain to get new management By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
The Bremerton City Council was set to approve a new contract this week with Columbia Hospitality to take over operations of Gold Mountain Golf Course. City Council President Jim McDonald said early in the week that he was confident the board would approve the proposal. Councilman Greg Wheeler, from the beginning, has been the lone voice on the council opposed to hiring Columbia Hospitality, which already manages the city’s conference center, to run Gold Mountain because the firm has no experience in the golf course management business. Wheeler felt the Gold Mountain contract should have gone out to bid nationally and said he would vote against the Columbia deal as a matter of principal. The vote was scheduled to occur after deadline for this issue. At least two golf course management firms, Billy Casper Golf and Hampton Golf, have contacted city officials and expressed interest in Gold Mountain. Scott Winch, a vice president and general council for Hampton Golf, sent the city council an email on September 5. “I believe you understand the intricacies involved in operating such an important asset, so to retain a company with no experience in managing a golf courses without even reviewing a competing bid could be catastrophic for the city,” Winch wrote. “Although I am obviously biased to Hampton Golf, I implore you to at least review a management proposal from one competing company, even if the review is solely to assist in negotiating the management agreement with Columbia Hospitality. Rob Waldron, the business development manager for Billy Casper Golf, which operates more than 130 golf facilities coast to coast, with properties in 27 U.S. states and the District of Columbia, contacted the city in July. “We have been following the challenges the City of Bremerton has been facing with the operation of Gold Mountain Golf Club for the past several years,” Waldron wrote. “You are not alone. Municipal golf

Management of the world class courses at the City of Bremerton’s Gold Mountain golf complex was expected to be given to Columbia Hospitality, a company with no golf experience, in a no-bid contract during Wednesday’s city council meeting. courses across the country have been fighting downward trends in rounds and revenue while faced with escalating operating expenses resulting in lower profit contributions to municipalities.” Waldron said his company has been able to buck that trend through creative marketing and attention to detail when it comes to course conditions, customer service and cost controls. City Council President Jim McDonald said this week that Gold Mountain management was not put out to bid for a couple of reasons. “You know, there’s obviously stuff we could have learned,” he said. “The issue is a couple of things, what cost would that of been? We probably would have hired somebody to put together the proposal and evaluate that for us. And what would it mean for the employees
at the golf course that have made the golf course what it is today?” Specifically, McDonald said that the council wanted to make sure that longtime Head Golf Pro Daryl Matheny and longtime Golf Course Superintendent Ed Faulk were kept at Gold Mountain. “I’m pretty confident (an outside firm) would have brought their own people in and there’s a good chance you would have lost the personnel that have worked very hard to make the course what it is today,” McDonald said. McDonald also doesn’t believe that hiring a company with no golf course management will be catastrophic. “I don’t think that’s true and, there again, when Columbia Hospitality hires the guy that’s the pro out there and they hire the groundskeeper, all of the
SPECIA L
sudden they have all the local experience they need because that’s who’s been doing the course.” McDonald also noted that the city can opt out of the new contract if things don’t work out and put Gold Mountain management out to bid at that time.
“I think it’s worth giving a shot,” McDonald said. “If it doesn’t work, it’s gonna make for an easy transition to go out and bid it because we’ll have all the numbers, which we didn’t have unfortunately because of the way it was set up. It’s not a permanent situation if we don’t

want it to be permanent, but I think it’s going to be very successful.” Apparently the folks at Columbia Hospitality think so to. Gold Mountain’s net income last year was $409,008, but according to a financial projections put together by the company, they conservatively hope to increase Gold Mountain’s net income by about $100,000. Moderate projections would increase revenue by about $150,000 and aggressive projections would increase revenue by about $230,000. According to the terms of the contract proposal, Columbia Hospitality will receive a 5 percent base management fee and a 20 percent incentive fee for any net income above $600,000. Based on city projections, Columbia Hospitality’s management fee for 2013 will be $185,048 and the city would be in the black by $466,864 before any consideration is made for debt service or capital reserve. With debt service and a targeted 4 percent of revenue set aside for capital reserve, the city would be in the positive by $36,796 ($282,030 for 2013 debt service and $148,038 reserved for capital).

this is going to take a lot more people than just me.

Desiree Hartman told investigators that she first started to notice something was amiss at the end of the school year in June. Hartman said that Eley blamed the bank for making errors when confronted about the account balances. According to Hartman and another PTA member, the checks should have required two signatures to be cashed. Investigators said only Eley signed the checks. In an incident report prepared by the sher-

I feel guilty taking credit sometimes over anyone else.” Best says that was especially true at the August 4 cleanup, a day he says he will never forget, that featured more than 200 volunteers. “This community’s amazing,” he said. “If you put a call to action out in this community, and people respect you, the people will come out and they will come out in force. If I could put one word on it, we uni-
fied the community that day. Everybody was one, it was like one big family. If we could have a day like that everyday in Bremerton, we’d have the best city in the United States.” The effort to make the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier a world-class memorial involved a lot more than just pulling weeds and laying down new sod. A new concrete walkway to and around the tomb, which was treated to look more like granite, is in the shape of a ribbon. A raised, semicircular concrete seating area, featuring the

it was wrong,” wrote Deputy Jeff Schaffer in a report on the matter. Schaffer said that Eley offered to pay back $10,000. On Sept. 17, Eley turned herself in to deputies at the Kitsap County Jail and invoked her Miranda rights saying she did not want to speak without a lawyer present.

The updated memorial was designed by Joshua Fisher. Best said he is still working to secure seven commercial-grade f lag poles, one for each of the armed services and a flag recognizing prisoners of war and missing in
action. The tallest pole will fly the colors. Special lighting will also illuminate the flags at night. Best said that the rededication ceremony for the tomb was another emotional day. “There wasn’t a dry eye in the house,” he said. “It was really neat to see the whole community, from all walks of life, come together for a special day. It’s really important to me because this community has such a rich Navy heritage to be proud of.”
The cemetery is the final resting place of many veterans and veterans memorials. Among the various memorials is one dedicated to 61 veterans killed during an attack on the U.S.S. Saratoga on Feb. 21, 1945, and a memorial for veterans of the Spanish American War and the grave of John H. Nibbe, a recipient of the Congressional Medal of Honor for his service during the Civil War.

First citations mailed to drivers caught speeding on I-90 Staff
Citations have been mailed to 169 vehicle owners whose cars were speeding through the work zone on Interstate 90 at Snoqualmie Pass. The $137 citations will begin arriving in mailboxes soon for drivers caught speeding between Sept. 17 and 21. The Washington State Department of Transportation started using automated speed enforcement in the I-90 work zone to help reduce speeds and improve safety for work-
ers and travelers. A camera inside the SUV captures the rear license plates of vehicles going over the posted speed limit. The Washington State Patrol matches the license plate with the Department of Licensing’s database and issues a $137 fine to the registered owner. Those receiving citations should follow the instructions inside to submit payment or contest the infraction, such as if the registered driver of the car which received the ticket was not the driver that day, an in-person
affirmative statement to that fact can remove the citation. By keeping within the 60 mph speed limit, those driving through the I-90 Snoqualmie Pass East – Hyak to Keechelus Dam project are helping keep travelers and construction crews who are building a new, more reliable six-lane highway, just a bit safer. More information, a sample infraction, question-andanswer section and publicfeedback form are available at www.wsdot.wa.gov/safety/ ATSC.

Si lverd a le resident Brandan Edward Fontelar, 18, was airlifted to Harborview Medical Center with serious injuries after being struck by a car in the 13200 block of Silverdale Way NW, between Grandpeak Lane and Spirit Ridge Drive, late Monday night. A Harborview spokesperson said that Fontelar was moved out of the intensive care unit (ICU) on Tuesday evening and was being listed in satisfactory condition. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue emergency crews and Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office deputies were called at 10:36 p.m. Monday night. According to the sheriff ’s office, Fontelar was found lying on the northbound shoulder of the roadway. Fontelar had been struck by a vehicle that was traveling northbound on

18-year-old hit while standing on shoulder of Silverdale roadway Silverdale Way. Although the investigation is ongoing, preliminary reports indicate that Fontelar and his 18 yearold girlfriend, riding in a Kia Optima, had been heading northbound on Silverdale Way and were engaged in a verbal argument. During this argument the driver stopped the Kia in the travelled portion of the roadway. Fontelar then apparently got out of the car and walked around to the passenger side where he continued to argue with his girlfriend for a short time. Fontelar next walked around the car in an effort to get back into the driver’s seat and was then struck by a Chevrolet Malibu that also was traveling northbound, driven by an unidentified 64 year-old Central Kitsap woman, according to the sheriff ’s office. The driver of the Chevrolet told depu-

After impact, Fontelar was carried for about 50 feet on the hood of the Chevrolet before falling off and coming to rest on the roadway shoulder. The car stopped on the same shoulder several feet further north. The driver of the Chevrolet Malibu wasn’t injured.

To be eligible for VRAP, a Veteran must: • Be 35-60 years old, unemployed on the day of application, and not dishonorably discharged; • Not be eligible for any other VA education benefit program such as the Post-9/11 GI Bill, Montgomery GI Bill, or Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment; • Not be enrolled in a federal or state job-training program within the last 180 days; and • Not receive VA compensation at the 100 percent rate due to individual unemployability

54,000 Veterans retrained in fiscal year 2013.” At a recent Kitsap County Veterans Stand down held in Bremerton, Olympic College Veteran Center volunteer Larry Cleman explained that the glitch in VRAP’s dispersal plan has surfaced locally. Some homeless and poor veterans seeking to take advantage of the program at O.C. cannot do so because they don’t have the money to pay tuition up front. Most will need $1,500 up front to pay for the 12 credit hours in approved curricula required by the program, he said. The program allows qualifying veterans to receive up to 12 months of education assistance equal to the current fulltime Montgomery GI Bill – Active Duty rate of $1,546 per month. When that money actually gets to the veteran depends on the school. Olympic college only certifies student enrollment after 30 days in class. Olympic College Dean of Enrollment Services, Dianna Larson said that the VRAP program began with one component missing that would have addressed the specific issue faced by otherwise qualified homeless and poor veterans seeking access to their benefits. Originally the VRAP required the VA to have a plan for advance pay, she said. “The colleges are trying to fill in the gaps right now,” Larson said, “until the plan is established.” Matt McAlvanah, a spokesperson for Senator Patty Murray, said that the Senator recently intervened at Pierce Community College in Tacoma when the administration misread federal guidelines for veterans trying to enroll through VRAP. Murray, who chairs the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs, is considered to be the primary force behind the overall legislation to improve employment prospects for veterans. McAlvanah Tuesday said the Senator reached out to the VA on the matter and the VA assured her office that advance pay for the VRAP was now available. A spokesperson in the VA’s Seattle office Wednesday was unable to say if advance pay was available this quarter. A recent excluded community colleges that offer

Olympic College Veteran Center volunteer Larry Cleman explains the eligibility requirements of the Veteran Retraining Assistance Program to a veteran during a recent event. associated degrees from VRAP was ruled last June to be in violation of the “spirit” of the legislation creating the program. Tonie Jeffrey is one such veteran whose seen the VRAP money delay issue first hand. An Army veteran with two bachelors degrees from the University of Washington, she was one of the first to enroll in VRAP at O.C. last spring and plans to use the program to get an associates degree in “information systems” to better her chances of reentering the workforce. Jeffery said that sometimes getting reimbursed can take two months. “It’s tough with the money,” she said. Other issues Jeffery has seen in the program are the way education payments are prorated and tied to a “day rate” that
can negatively affect a student when the quarter only goes to Dec. 7. The rest of that month isn’t covered she said. Randall Burgess, an Army veteran working in the Vet Corps program, said that some schools in the state certify enrollment on day one of classes, which gets the VRAP money moving faster. That difference is a big help to cash strapped veterans the programs seeks to help, he said. “There is no hold up,” Burgess said. This fall, Olympic College’s student veterans enrolled under VRAP that faced that $1,500 financial hurdle, saw their financial aid “fast tracked” so that pell grants would be available to cover tuition and books on day one of class this fall, Larson said. Larson said there were
various ways for the upfront money required to enter O.C. to be taken care of, including special 10 percent and 15 percent tuition waivers for veterans that served in combat and for those that served supporting those in combat. Another solution is making three monthly $500 payments, she said. Cleman said that after the up front tuition problem first surfaced, Larson “went to bat” for the veterans at O.C. in order to find a solution for the VA gap. While it’s hard to say how many VRAP eligible unemployed veterans live in Kitsap County, nearly 1,200 sought the services of the county’s WorkSource office between Jan. 1 and the end of August. Margret Hess, director of WorkSource Kitsap County, said the numbers of veterans seeking direct

help with their job hunts varies between 195 and 300 each month. “That’s not counting those who come in and use only the resource center,” Hess said. An estimated 34,000 veterans of the eligible age live in Kitsap County, however most pre-9/11 veterans have a higher employment rate that non-veterans of the same age. Larson said that between eight and 10 students are enrolled at O.C. this fall under VRAP, but that the
program is catching on and expects that more will take advantage of the new program as they become aware. The VA as received some criticism for failing to get the word out on the program nationally. Regardless of financial troubles she faced entering into the program, Jeffery, who is looking for the career bounce that fresh training and educations can offer mid-career veterans, called VRAP a “big help” in her efforts.

Get to know the real lutefisk First Lutheran Church’s 100th anniversary dinner is Oct. 20
By RICHARD WALKER Kitsap Week
P
OULSBO — The First Lutheran Church is celebrating its 100th anniversary lutefisk dinner Oct. 20, but before we get into that, we need to get some things straight. First, lutefisk is not “lyesoaked cod,” Margene Smaaladen said. Sure, lye is used early in the processing — lye is used to cure many types of food — but by the time your fish is cooked it’s been through a lengthy soaking and washing that removes all of the lye. (To be fair, we wouldn’t say lye-soaked olives or lye-soaked hominy, would we?) Second, Gordon Stenman said, lutefisk tastes good and is good for you. If by some Internet

Hearing loss can be helped; get tested today BY DR. MEGAN NIGHTINGALE
T
here is a lot of evidence out there to remind us to stay active, moving and socializing. Physical fitness immediately comes to mind when we think of staying active, but staying mentally active is also equally as important if not more so for long-term health benefits. It has been shown by researchers who study longevity that keeping connected to one’s family, home or work community is crucial to long-term mental health and can help us avoid a myriad of long-term health issues such as dementia, heart disease, diabetes and Alzheimer’s. There is now evidence that links hearing loss with the above-mentioned chronic conditions. Nothing interferes with staying close to family, friends or co-workers more than hearing loss. It is worth noting that 65 percent of people who have a hearing loss are below retirement age. This has a significant impact
in the workplace (Source: NIDCD Health Statistics on hearing loss). A recent survey study done by the U.S. Department of Education notes that middleaged (45-64) participants who had a hearing loss but no treatment (no hearing aids) felt that they were being passed over for promotion much more often that their normal hearing counterparts, or their counterparts who had hearing loss but wore hearing aids. The study also found that those with unaided hearing loss were unemployed at a

loss and I am in the business! My hearing loss came on gradually starting in my 40s. I only noticed it in really noisy places, where I struggled to hear someone across from me. But in my mid-40s, I found that I was second guessing at what my clients were saying during a critical testing segment for identifying hearing problems and solutions. I had to ask people to repeat themselves. It was then I realized I was suffering from the same difficulty that I was helping people with in my career. My work was being affected, so I began to wear hearing aids right away, allowing me a firsthand knowledge of the advantages of the latest hearing aid technology. I can report from personal experience on how hearing technology works in both the workplace, at home and in social situations. If you find you are having more trouble lately hearing what your co-worker or supervisor is saying, or if you find yourself exhausted at the end of the day from trying to hear at work, it is time to get a hearing test. Some physician’s offices will screen hearing and send

you on for a comprehensive hearing evaluation if the screening shows a problem. Most health insurance plans will cover a comprehensive hearing test. Some require a physician referral to an audiologist. The most important thing to remember is that hearing loss does not usually go away. The faster it is treated, the more natural one’s hearing will be, at work and at home. Don’t let hearing loss keep you from being your best at home, work or in your community.

and help,” she said of the emerging generation. Boys are most involved in preparing the lutefisk; girls gravitate to the krumkakke, lefse and meatballs, skills that she learned from her older sisters. Graves shies away from lutefisk because she’s not a “fish person”; she doesn’t care for the texture or the “fishiness.” But, she said of lutefisk, “It’s looks like something that might be good for you.”

The lefse? As you read this, potatoes are being peeled and the lefse dough is being made, mixed, balled and rolled. All told, volunteers will prepare 2,000 lefse, 2,000 pounds of lutefisk, 650 pounds of potatoes, 325 pounds of meatballs and gravy, 100 pounds of cabbage, and three boxes of apples. “The lefse-making is a three-day process and we have probably 40-plus volunteers that show up,” Smaaladen said. “Same goes for the meatballs – all hand-rolled and cooked, but that takes place one day before the dinner so the meatballs sit in the cooler overnight and absorb the flavors of the gravy.” That’s quite a feat. “We have served as many as 1,500 in one day,” Smaaladen said. “One

of us will let the youngsters take the reins next year, although I’m sure we will both continue to help in smaller ways,” she said. Margaret Graves, Poulsbo Sons of Norway queen and lodge publicity director, has helped at the Sons of Norway dinner (the next is Jan. 28) for five years. She said she’s confident there are enough younger people to keep the lutefisk dinner tradition going. “We don’t all like lutefisk, but we come down

Of her generation carrying on the lutefisk dinner tradition, she said, “I think there’s enough younger people to carry it on. But we can always use more.” The lutefisk dinner is also a way for the community to help take care of itself. The dinner is an annual fundraiser for church missions, raising as much as $11,000. This year, the money goes to Martha & Mary. The 100th annual Lutefisk Dinner Fundraiser is Oct. 20,

It’s easy to feel the immigrant history here. Norwegians began migrating to Poulsbo in the 1880s, attracted by land and marine resources similar to those in the land of their birth; like many of the volunteers helping to put on this dinner, Stenman’s grandparents arrived in Poulsbo in the 1890s. One of the guests at the dinner will be Valborg “Volly” Grande of Tacoma. Her father, J.T. Norby, was pastor of the church — it was Fjordeford Lutheran then — when the first lutefisk dinner was held in 1913. That dinner, on Feb. 21, was held in the Ladies Aid Hall. The committeein-charge was composed of women whose sur-

names you might recognize: Bjermeland, Sonju, Thompson, Torgeson. The dinner raised $26.80, roughly $628 in today’s dollars. The dinner, dubbed “a resounding success,” prompted the organizers to purchase a new cookstove and make the dinner an annual event. Grande was born here in 1915, the year of the third dinner. “It’s the best lutefisk dinner anyplace,” said Grande, who will be
attending with her daughter, son-in-law and two friends. “I live in Tacoma and they have them here, and I go to the dinner in Gig Harbor. But they are never like [Poulsbo’s].” What makes Poulsbo’s better? “They know how to make ‘em. They don’t overcook the lutefisk,” she said. Grande doesn’t put much stock in lutefisk jokes. She compares the taste to boiled cod with salt and pepper. If you don’t like that, well, there’s
always the meatballs, she said. Info: http://poulsbolutefisk.com.
LUTEFISK FACTS
Say what?: A couple of sources told me it’s pronounced lute-fisk. Mrs. Grande told me it’s pronounced luda-fisk. A third party said either way would get me in the door at the dinner. n What is it?: In short, lutefisk is dried cod that is reconstituted by soaking first in a water and lye solution. The lye is n
removed by soaking in cold water that is changed daily. This process takes about two weeks. Then the lutefisk is ready to be cooked. n Old family recipe: According to the website, MyLittleNorway.com, lutefisk was first mentioned in literature in 1555, when Swedish archbishop Olaus Magnus described how to prepare and eat lutefisk; lutefisk was featured in the first-ever printed Danish cookbook in 1616. n Lutefisk, love it or leave it: Vogue magazine food critic Jeffrey Steingarten wrote that lutefisk is not a food but “a weapon of mass destruction,” but Archbishop Magnus wrote centuries earlier that the dish was “highly valued, even by kings.” n Lutefisk’s comeback: According to most statistics, more lutefisk is consumed in Wisconsin than in Norway (though Madison, Minn. — not Madison, Wisc. — claims to be the Lutefisk Capital of the U.S.). But lutefisk is making
a comeback across the Atlantic. According to the Norwegian Seafood Export Council, a 2005 survey found 20 percent of Norwegians ate lutefisk during the Christmas holiday season. And sales of lutefisk to restaurants and catering companies in Norway increased by 72 percent between 2005 and 2008. According to MyLittleNorway.com, “Statistics show that the biggest consumers of lutefisk are middle-aged, medium income, highly educated men – but the women are catching up.” n The food that made Vikings great: We’ll check our jokes at the church door, but we’ve got to include this one, courtesy of Jeffrey Steingarten: “Lutefisk is the Norwegians’ attempt at conquering the world. When they discovered that Viking raids didn’t give world supremacy, they invented a meal so terrifying, so cruel, that they could scare people to become one’s subordinates.”

web back up on a regular basis. The spider eats the web, giving its body muchneeded protein, then begins weaving its web all over again. Speaking of protein, each spider eats literally hundreds of
insects, sometimes thousands, in its short lifetime. Do not panic if you find yourself entangled in a spider web. As soon as our bodies collide with a web the spider drops from a silken webline down to the ground. Can you imagine how absolutely humongous and monstrous we must appear to a spider? Especially since it sees several images of us at one time with its eyes. The only thing the spider wants to do is get away as quickly as possible. If you’re careful you can actually unhook a whole web and move it aside leaving the spider happily nearby.

Weekend in Willamette Valley wine country O
ne of the most beautiful places on the West Coast — perhaps anywhere — to taste wine is Oregon’s Willamette Valley. The region stretches from the Columbia River in the north and follows the Willamette River and its tributaries as far as Eugene in the south. The major area if you plan to take a weekend visit to the region is the northern Willamette Valley, which focuses primarily on Yamhill County. Such towns as Carlton, Dundee, McMinnville, Dayton and Newberg serve as a base for wine travelers to the northern Willamette, and they are conveniently an hour or less away from Portland.
NW Wines By ANDY PERDUE and eric degerman
In the northern Willamette, beautiful evergreen trees intermingle with bucolic farms and vineyards to create an atmosphere unlike any other. Except for big event weekends (Memorial Day and Thanksgiving), the roads of the northern Willamette Valley are light on traffic, and getting lost can become a serendipitous opportunity. About two dozen bed & breakfasts and small inns dot the Yamhill County countryside, and they are often near or within vineyards. The region also
has attracted a number of superb chefs, most of whom rely on regional produce for their inspired cuisine. Autumn is a perfect time to visit the Willamette Valley for a weekend of wine touring. Here are a few wines from the region we’ve tasted recently. Ask for them from your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. n Amity Vineyards 2009 Sunnyside Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley, $35: Aromas of dried strawberry, raspberry, rhubarb compote and black cherries give way to more flavors of black cherry on the entry and almost no tannin to get in the way of the strawberry/

A blend of 777, 667 and Pommard clones, it is set to be released in September. n Seven of Hearts 2010 Lia’s Vineyard Pinot Noir, Chehalem Mountains, $35: The grapes for this wine come from an older vineyard in the Chehalem Mountains near Newberg. It opens with aromas of mint tea, exotic sandalwood, cinnamon powder, orange zest and red currants. On the palate, it’s a compelling wine with flavors of blood oranges, cocoa powder, raspberries and cherries, all backed with restrained tannins. n Sokol Blosser NV Evolution 15th Edition, Oregon, $17: This blend of nine white grapes has been a mainstay for this pioneer Dundee Hills winery for many years. This version opens with aromas of sweet herbs, citrus and ripe Asian pears. A clean, bright entry leads to flavors of pears, apples and oranges. It is off-dry at 1.23 percent residual sugar, and this should pair nicely with everything from grilled halibut topped with a fruit salsa to spicy Asian cuisine. n Stoller Vineyards 2009 JV Estate Pinot Noir, Dundee Hills, $25: Aromas of fresh cranberry, cassis, raspberry, vanilla bean, rose hips and forest floor. It’s not a drink of fruit punch, but rather a glass of delicious finesse that finishes with Van cherry, sweet milk chocolate and cigar box tobacco. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine, www.winepressnw. com.
