Washington State Ferries meeting Dec. 4 in Kingston By NATALIE JOHNSON
Vashon Island Beachcomber
KINGSTON — Faced with escalating fuel costs and increasingly stringent environmental regulations, the state ferry system hopes to convert at least a quarter of its fleet to a new fuel source. At Washington State Ferries' community meeting in Kingston Dec. 4, David Moseley, head of the ferry system, is scheduled to give an update on the state’s efforts to convert six ferries to run on liquefied natural gas by 2015. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. in the Kingston Community Center’s Kingston Room, 11212 State Highway 104. The ferry system, looking to cut fuel costs, has been studying liquefied natural gas (LNG) for about two years, Moseley said in an interview last week. LNG seems a logical choice for the ferries. It’s expected to remain significantly cheaper than the diesel fuel that ferries currently

Continued from page A1 use, Moseley said, and it also produces fewer greenhouse gas emissions. WSF recently got preliminary approval from the U.S. Coast Guard to retrofit the six Issaquah class ferries, including the MV Issaquah that serves Vashon, to run on the new fuel. Later on, the 144-car Olympic class ferries, which are under construction, may be converted as well. “I think that liquefied natural gas is a major fuel source of the future,” Moseley said. The ferries division, given a nod from the Coast Guard, is now working to develop more specific plans, which it will present to the Coast Guard as well as the state Legislature for approval as early as this winter. It's also searching for a private investor, perhaps a natural gas supplier, to help finance the multimillion dollar project. “It would be a pretty major change for the system,” said Rep. Joe Fitzgibbon, D-Burien, a member of the Legislature’s Joint Transportation Committee. “We want to make sure we look at safety risks and costs and everything before we take any irreversible steps.” The ferry system, which burns 17 million gallons of liquid fuel a year, has taken a hit in recent years as the cost of diesel has climbed. In 2000, fuel con-
A Washington State ferry approaches the Kingston ferry dock. WSF has a plan to convert its ferry fleet to liquid natural gas, which could save WSF at least $140 million. File photo / Herald sumed about 10 percent of the ferry system’s budget. Today, fuel costs the ferries $67 million a year, or about 30 percent of the budget. Combine that with decreasing tax revenue, Moseley said, and the state needed to look at its options. “Obviously (fuel) is a huge expense,” he said. Retrofitting the six Issaquah class ferries to run on LNG would save the state $140 million to $196 million in fuel costs over the lifetime of the vessels, according to a state study. The fuel savings would pay for the $103 million conversion in six to eight years, while the boats have 25 to 30 years left on the water.
Other estimates, however, show the state might not save so much. A report prepared for the Joint Transportation Committee by the Cedar River Group, a Seattlebased consulting firm that has worked with the ferry system in the past, put the cost of the retrofit at $144 million, making the savings less than the state estimate. Moseley said the ferries division is working to refine the numbers but noted that despite the differing numbers, both studies recommended that WSF move forward with the project. What’s more, Moseley said, the ferry system
Blacyk at Frida
needs to do something to address its greenhouse gas emissions. New regulations put forward by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency mandate that the ferry system reduce its emissions significantly in the next eight to 10 years. Converting to LNG would allow the system to meet the new standards, Moseley said. “Both our analysis and the Cedar River Group analysis said this is a direction we should continue to pursue,” Moseley said. As the state moves forward, it’s looking at a number of hurdles in the transition to LNG. Retrofitting a boat would require it to
Page A3
be taken off the water for several months. Liquified Natural Gas would have to be trucked from Vancouver, B.C., though it’s possible a plant could eventually be built in the Northwest. The state would also have to make changes in how the boats are refueled. And the U.S. Coast Guard currently has no regulations for LNG-fueled passenger boats, which would be a first in the country. Natural gas, considered a more hazardous fuel than diesel to transport, is highly restricted by the Coast Guard. “It’s totally new territory,” Moseley said. The state, however, is working closely with the Coast Guard to find terms it can agree on, and Moseley feels the conversion is feasible. Norway, which has large natural gas supplies, has been running LNGfueled ferries successfully for years, he said. British Columbia and New York are looking to convert some of their ferries as well, and a major cargo shipping line in the Northwest is well on its way to retrofitting some of its vessels. “We don’t see any insurmountable obstacles at this point,” Moseley said. Greg Beardsley, chairman of Vashon Island’s Ferry Advisory Committee, said he, too, thinks the conversion would be worth it in the end. Beardsley, who is often a critic of the ferry system, said that with the rising cost of diesel, the state should
look to a new fuel source before ferry riders bear the brunt of the cost. “I’m sure the cost of the current fuel is going to go up and up and up,” Beardsley said. “Without doing some mitigation of that, we’re going to end up paying a lot more for ferry service.” Fitzgibbon said lawmakers were open to considering liquefied natural gas, but there were still many unanswered questions on their end. It will be one of a gamut of ferry-related issues the Legislature considers this winter when it convenes in Olympia. “We like the fact that certainly there would be less greenhouse gas emissions and particle emissions. … We just need more information to find out if this is a realistic plan to move forward with,” he said.

The crash, which occurred at approximately 10 a.m., blocked both lanes of the highway. Robert W. Faulkner, 57, of Suquamish is charged with failure to yield. Faulkner was exiting the Masi Shop parking lot 1993 Oldsmobile Bravada onto Highway 305 when his vehicle was struck on the driver’s side by a 1990 Chevy Caprice driven by Robert B. Olson, 76, of Allyn.
Olson was driving in the southbound lane of 305 when the collision occurred. Faulkner’s car came to rest in the northbound lane and shoulder. Olson’s car stopped in the southbound lane. Olson was taken by paramedic to Harrison Medical Center with non-life-threatening injuries. Each car had one passenger that was not injured. Traffic was detoured through Totten Road and the gas station for more than an hour. Two days earlier, a passerby and State Patrol officer extinguished a vehicle fire that started after an SUV went off the road and

Poulsbo Fire Department and North Kitsap Fire and Rescue went to the scene of the single-car crash at 1:40 p.m. When crews arrived, they found that a passerby, who claimed to be a former New York City firefighter, and the Washington State Patrol had already extinguished the fire with a fire extinguisher, according to Poulsbo Fire spokeswom-

However, the 51-year-old Hansville woman was still trapped in her Subaru SUV. “Firefighters extricated the woman and transported her to Harrison Hospital in Bremerton with what appeared to be minor injuries,” Matson reported. “Highway 307 — Bond Road near Rova — was completely shut down for about 10 minutes, then opened to one lane and alternating traffic for approximately 45 minutes.” The cause of the crash was under investigation. It was raining when the crash occurred.
POULSBO — Poulsbo Police Department asks residents to be cautious holiday travelers and shoppers this year. n Be mindful of small children, both your own and others. Most children do not watch for cars, and often run out from between parked cars. n This is the time of year when vehicle prowls increase. Do not leave purses, bags, boxes or other things visible in your car.
n Make sure the outside of your house is well lit and maintained so burglars do not have any place to hide while they break in. Always keep your doors and windows locked. If you go on vacation, have a trusted neighbor watch your house. n Do not drink and drive. There are more crashes this time of year because it gets darker sooner, the roads are more slippery, and there are more drunk drivers out.

Woman found dead in Suquamish house fire By MEGAN STEPHENSON
mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com
SUQUAMISH — A woman was found dead and a home sustained significant damage in a fire in Suquamish on Monday. Kitsap County Coroner Greg Sandstrom identified the woman as Cynthia B. McMahon, 57. The cause of McMahon’s death and the fire was still under investigation Tuesday. North Kitsap Fire & Rescue spokeswoman Michele Laboda said it was the first fire-related fatal-
Bellringer
Continued from page A1 campaign, with the goal of raising at least $30,000 to meet local needs. Once again, the Harry James Trust is the first to donate, contributing $500. The fund is a proud local tradition that dates back to 1946, when Frank and Mabel Raab founded the fund as a way for local residents to meet the needs
ity in NKF&R’s jurisdiction since January 2001, when an elderly man died in a cabin fire in Hansville’s Cliffside neighborhood. Firefighters from North Kitsap Fire & Rescue and Poulsbo Fire Department went to the scene of the Suquamish fire — at South Angeline Avenue and Balzow Road — at 12:29 p.m. The fire was reported by a neighbor, who saw flames coming from the three-story house. The first unit arrived on the scene in less than 10 minutes but had to access
the property through narrow and winding roadways and a locked gate across the home’s driveway. Firefighters pushed through the gate and saw light smoke visible from the house. Moments later, an officer walking around the house saw heavy fire coming from the side of the home facing the water. One crew quickly snuffed those flames while another crew began a search of the structure, Laboda reported. McMahon was found inside but crews were unable to resuscitate her.
Battalion Chief Rick LaGrandeur, the incident commander, said the house had a lot of “void spaces” inside the walls where the fire continued to burn; flames traveled hidden in walls from the ground floor to the structure’s roof. “We were chasing this thing literally from the ground up,” LaGrandeur said. After opening up wall and ceiling spaces to extinguish hot spots with water, crews were able to say the blaze was completely extinguished approximately 50 minutes after arrival.
The interior spaces of the home’s ground floor were severely damaged in the blaze. Heat and smoke damage affected all three of the house’s floors but the structure remained intact. An adjacent garage and mother-in-law apartment were untouched by the fire, as were a recreational vehicle and two neighboring houses — less than 10 feet away on either side. The owners of the home had three dogs, two of which were found unharmed soon after crews arrived.
of their neighbors. The fund is part of the Raab Foundation, but is administered by the Poulsbo Lions Club. Bellringer Fund chairman John Macdonald, a Poulsbo CPA, said there is no overhead. Every penny goes to local needs. Contributions are tax-deductible. The Bellringer Fund will use about $5,000 to provide those Christmas food baskets. The remainder of the funds will be distributed
to North Kitsap Fishline, Kingston ShareNet and St. Vincent de Paul Society. Those organizations will use the money to help people in financial crisis: Help paying rent or mortgage so they can stay in their homes; help paying utility bills so they can keep the lights and heat on; help getting to where they need to go if the family car is in need of repair. Macdonald said Bellringer formerly distrib-
uted the money to individuals and families but turned that task over to the nonprofits, because they have a structure in place to perform that task daily. “We found there was a lot of duplication in what we were doing, and that they were more efficient in distributing funds than we were,” Macdonald said. “We felt the money would be better used by letting those three entities administer the funds.”
Rae Rodriguez, client services manager at Fishline, said letting the non-profits administer the funds speeds response during emergencies. “And we’re able to stretch what we’re doing for people in crisis,” she said. Those crises have not abated since the U.S. entered its period of economic recovery. “It used to be that folks would come in because of an issue, now it’s multiple issues,” she said.

The cause of the fire and the location of its start point was unknown Tuesday. A team from the Kitsap County Fire Marshal’s Office remained on the scene Monday evening, conducting their investigation into the cause of the fatal fire. The Kitsap County Coroner’s Office scheduled McMahon’s autopsy Tuesday. Laboda said the Fire Marshal’s Office will release their investigation results when they confer with the autopsy results. There were no other injuries to firefighters or civilians, Laboda reported.
“We’ve been in crisis mode for a couple of years. We’ve tripled our client load in that time.” Donations can be delivered to the North Kitsap Herald, 19351 8th Ave. NE, Suite 205, Poulsbo.

IN OUR OPINION
Support the Lions/ Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund I
f you gave to the Poulsbo Lions Club/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund in 2011, you made a big difference in someone’s life — possibly someone you know. Since its inception in 1946, the Poulsbo Lions Club/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund has helped provide food, emergency shelter and emergency financial assistance to North Kitsap residents in need. There is no overhead; every penny goes back into the community, according to John Macdonald, co-chairman of the fund. In 2011, the fund assisted more than 300 local families. In 2011, the fund ensured 102 local families had food for the Christmas holiday. In 2011, money distributed by the fund to North Kitsap Fishline, Kingston’s ShareNet and St. Vincent de Paul Society enabled those organizations to help local families avoid eviction and keep their utilities from being shut off, and get emergency transportation to medical appointments and work. In 2011, as the economic recovery continued to slog along, North Kitsap residents dug deep and gave what they could; some gave $5, some gave more. But the donations added up — combined, you gave a remarkable $33,061, some $7,471 more than that collected in the 2010-11 campaign. The continued increase in the number of people helped by these organizations paints a picture of our times: In 200708, ShareNet’s food assistance was one-fourth of what it is today. ShareNet’s staff has met the need as good stewards of the resources given them: Today, it has the same number of staff (four part-timers) as in 2007-08. Several donors have become ShareNet clients and several clients have become ShareNet volunteers. Ditto at North Kitsap Fishline. Because of money raised by the Bellringer Fund, “We’re able to stretch what we’re doing for people in crisis — whether it’s paying rent, mortgage, or utilities,” said Rae Rodriguez, Fishline’s client services manager. “It used to be that folks would come in because of an issue, now it’s because of multiple issues. We’ve been in crisis mode for a couple of years, and we’ve probably tripled our client load since then.” These organizations are coming up with creative solutions to help people meet their basic needs. Fishline, for example, has a home share program, where it matches people who need a place to live with people who need help with their mortgage. It also connects clients looking for work with companies and job service providers. But to meet immediate needs, like food and shelter, Fishline and the others make good use of the money donated to the Poulsbo Lions Club/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund. Fishline, ShareNet and St. Vincent de Paul are a critical part of the safety net in North Kitsap. They are there for you and your family — and your fellow community members — when needed. Contribute to the Poulsbo Lions Club/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund and keep the safety net strong. You can take your Bellringer Fund donations to the North Kitsap Herald office, 19351 8th Ave., Suite 205, Poulsbo. Or mail to P.O. Box 244, Poulsbo, WA. 98370. Donors’ names will be published each week in the Herald. Thank you. And Happy Thanksgiving.

Letters Reaction to Nov. 16 editorial cartoon Regarding your Nov. 16 editorial cartoon: I would like to know why you would print this racial gaff? The caption reads “AngryWhiteMenistan.” Now, switch that around to read “AngryBlackMenistan,” and you wouldn’t have the cheek to print it. But, like all the media today, you slam white males. Such is the agenda of the far left. The cartoon you depict indicates all white men desiring to secede from the United States. What would prompt this? It would be necessary to look past the shortsighted pages and notice a mediasmothered backlash from Obama’s re-election. Could it have been the Obama cell phones handed out, as the Dayton Daily News reports: $26.9 million spent giving out phones to low-income individuals? That number of recipients doubled in the last year to more than 1 million in Ohio. On Nov. 15, ABC News published an article about 59 voting divisions in Philadelphia where not one Romney vote was recorded. Fraud? Yes. The same article cites St. Lucie County, Fla. having about 175,500 registered voters. But more than 247,383 votes were counted. In more than 100 precincts in Cuyahoga County, Ohio, Obama received 99 percent of the votes. Does that seem plausible? It seems odd Obama lost in every state requiring photo identification for voting. Barack Obama received 98 percent of the vote in 10 out of the 50 wards in Chicago. Prior to the election, voters in the states of Nevada, North Carolina, Texas and Ohio reported that voting machines were switching their votes for Romney over to Obama. Many Ohio voters that showed up at the polls on Election Day were surprised when they were informed that they had already voted. In Wisconsin, there were allegations that Obama voters were actually being bused in from out of state. Your presentation of this antagonistic satire oppresses ALL races of
American males who would stand for the truth. Unfortunately, such calumny is common fare found in your leftist rag. Barry Clemons Poulsbo Editor’s note: The cell phone program is part of the national Lifeline program, begun in 1985 and expanded to include cell phones in 2005. According to the Federal Communications Commission, the program was started “to ensure that all Americans have the opportunities and security that phone service brings, including being able to connect to jobs, family and emergency services.” According to the same ABC News report that Mr. Clemons cites, votes cast on long-form ballots in St. Lucie County were counted twice by error. The story says that the error was corrected and the correct number of votes for each candidate tallied. According to Fox News, voters in Nevada, North Carolina, Texas and Ohio who voted using touchscreen voting machines reported the machines tallied their votes in error. “The voters in question realized the error and were able to cast ballots for their actual choice,” Fox News reported. n

I resigned from the League of Women Voters because its state leaders took it upon themselves to oppose I-1240, without polling members like me. How undemocratic is that? They lost. What surprised me, though, was that our North Kitsap School Board also opposed 1240 in a quiet vote in October. This is counterproductive, when NKSD is looking to close an elementary school next year. There is no more likely buyer of an empty school building than a nonprofit public charter (who else could use such a special building?), and I’m glad the board sees that now. Maybe the booming Gateway Schools would buy the closed school, but they already have their own in-town campus and have recently bought Crosspoint Academy. The North Kitsap School Board might benefit by gaining the authority to sponsor a charter, before someone else gets a state board sponsorship here; it’s not trivial to get one. Another reason the NKSD should welcome charters is that they have the skills and patience to bring challenged kids up to grade level, which our middle schools apparently do not: only 55 percent of North Kitsap’s eighth-graders were “proficient” (i.e. at grade level) in the state’s math test last spring — the

However, I caution our board not to be complacent about that: I do private tutoring via the major tutoring site; there are always about a hundred requests near Poulsbo.

You opponents of reform cannot say otherwise. The facts speak, and the
age treatment and drinking water facilities, and its proximity to critical habitats for threatened salmon species and important herring populations. Furthermore, in reviewing the evolution of county documents since the 1999 declaration of Port Gamble as a Rural Historical Town (RHT), we see evidence that the county may have lost sight of its own initial objectives. There is absolutely no historical precedent for these structures on the site of the former mill on the shoreline of Port Gamble Bay. On the cultural level, we are shocked that the county planning efforts seem
to agree with the concept that the historical aspects of the development plan should reach back only to the start of the town by a commercial operation that essentially stole what was the home of the Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe for more than a millennium. How narrow-minded can we be? Lastly, development in Kitsap County, even so called economic development, must be subordinate to the mandate expressed by so many at the recent public hearings on the updated SMP. This mandate clearly was, that we, the citizens, are responsible for protecting our local waters.
We should learn from history and not make shortsighted exceptions to the rules and regulations in the SMP designed to protect us all. Let’s determine what is good for the local waterways and make that our concern, rather than designing elaborate schemes and tradeoffs (which will look like buy-offs to future generations) for mitigation of known or unforeseen consequences of construction on our shorelines.

The story of the Thanksgiving food basket A thansgiving Column by RICHARD WALKER

Herald editor
hat Thanksgiving dinner in the simple box has a story to tell. As you know, a lot of people are having a tough time this year. Volunteers and staff members at Fishline and parishioners at St. Olaf’s Church worked hard to make sure those neighbors had what they needed to feed their families at Thanksgiving. Those neighbors picked up those neatly organized boxes earlier this week. The generosity of each donor was clear in each box. But each box had a much bigger, more beautiful story to tell. It’s a story of how people drove through drenching rain to deliver food donations to Fishline and St. Olaf’s Church. It’s a story of how Mary Elizabeth Reynolds of St. Vincent de Paul Society is moved to tears by the generosity expressed by parishioners at St. Olaf’s. They will do this again in two weeks for Christmas. “I love this,” said Reynolds, who directs the Thanksgiving food basket

get proper nutrition when they’re not in school. “We saw that all the water from the hill above our food bank was pouring right on top of us, drowning our freezer compressor in 6 inches of water, and causing water to leak in through the roof and through our back door,” Nader said. Volunteer Linda Clark called her husband, Randy, who unclogged the storm drain catch basin while a friend of his cleaned the hard-to-reach rain gutters. Members of North Kitsap Baptist Church came in shortly thereafter and helped clean up all the water before closing time. More than 500 families received Thanksgiving food baskets this week — 72 packaged and distributed by St. Olaf’s, 430 packaged at Fishline and distributed by Fishline and Gateway Fellowship, First Lutheran, North Kitsap Baptist, North Point Church, St. Olaf’s, Suquamish United Church of Christ, and Vinland Lutheran. Yes, each Thanksgiving dinner had a story to tell — a story of the love of one neighbor for another, a story of a community in which people have each other’s backs. And that is something for which we should all give thanks this season.

Viking
Continued from page A1 an art project for the Lindvig Bridge, connecting Front Street to Viking Avenue, since 2008. As trolls are a traditional Scandinavian creature that guards bridges, the council attempted to find the right location for a troll earlier this year. Erickson said the idea began to falter with no feasible location, but then she saw a picture of a Viking statue at a Danish castle. “It’s who we are,” Erickson said of Poulsbo’s Scandinavian heritage. “These kind of community events and symbols are very important … Viking [Avenue] has had a rough couple of years. By having these tree lightings and the statue and getting the waterfall going again, [these projects] reinvigorate that part of our community.” The city had the motivation. It had the money, courtesy of the Borken Beautification Fund. And Austin had the connections. Mark Gale, a friend of Austin’s, is a sculptor whose large projects grace the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Woodland Park Zoo and, locally, Poulsbo’s Marine Science Center. He created a seven-story Beauty

“Not a lot of people do this. It’s part of the fun. It’s a total specialty deal.” — Kelly Hogan,contractor for the Viking Avenue Norseman project
and the Beast Mountain for Disneyworld. Gale, currently based in Tacoma, said he wants to be in business for himself and continue to do projects like this Viking. He said this project is easily worth around $90,000 but cost the city $25,000.
As for why he chose to do the project at such a discounted rate, he said, “To do something that I love to do and not have to work for anyone else.” The Viking is made of about 500 pounds of rebar steel and 5,000 pounds of cement. Gale worked from the bottom up — forming the shape of the man piece by piece, then adding Viking details: a thick beard, “leather” belt, a coat of chainmail, a cape, a thick sword and a helmet. The helmet has horns, despite the fact that Scandinavian Vikings did not have horns on their helmets.
“I want people to have a sense of humor” about the horns, Erickson said. “Most of the time when people think about Vikings, they think about horned helmets; whether that’s authentic or not, it’s the common perception.” Besides, Poulsbo has a smaller, historicallyaccurate Viking statue in Muriel Iverson Williams Waterfront Park. Gale didn’t work from blueprints. He drew up a likeness for the council, but when it came time to design, he said he used his own anatomical likeness. He would measure himself,

like his arm, and doubled it. Gale even crafted the Viking’s face after his own. Hogan works as a designer and contractor on rock gardens, and is based in Puyallup. He and Gale have collaborated before, and both would like to branch out and do their own projects. “Not a lot of people do this,” Hogan said. “It’s part of the fun. It’s a total specialty deal.” The unveiling of the Viking will be a highlight of the Viking Avenue Christmas Tree Lighting, Friday, 7 p.m. The event will feature music by the North Kitsap High School Choir, the presence of the Sons of Norway Vikings, and the lighting of the tree next to Martinson Cabin. There will be hot beverages, candy canes and hay rides. The event is free and open to the public. The tree was donated by St. Mick’s Tree Farm, Kingston.

OULSBO — What began as a shaky start for the NK Warriors A-String football team turned into an allout domination of their Pee-Wee league. The Warriors defeated Chico 22-0 on Nov. 10 at Bremerton High School for the championship. “We had a very nice season,” head coach Rob Johnson said. “All these boys really did an outstanding job.” Some of the team, comprised of 12- and 13-year-old players, have been coached by Johnson for the past six years. The win was a nice finish to the season. “It was a very sweet victory…” he said.
BURIEN — Since Jon O’Connor began coaching baseball in North Kitsap, he’s seen the Vikings take two Olympic League titles, for four in a row. He resurrected American Legion summer baseball for area ball players with the Kitsap Americans, which took the league title and went to State. O’Connor has become accustomed to winning and playing baseball the right way, he said. It’s something he will take with him wherever he goes. O’Connor will have the chance to show this spring what he’s learned, as the head coach of the Kennedy Catholic Lancers varsity baseball program. He was selected from about eight applicants. Kennedy Catholic, a 3A school, is in the Seamount League. The league has a combination of 2A and 3A schools. It’s a competitive league. Last season, the Lancers finished fourth in league play, with a 9-5 record. Hazen, Highline and Lindbergh finished in the top three. Lindbergh ended the regular season with a 14-0 league record. O’Connor sees Lindbergh as the North Kitsap Vikings

of the Seamount League. His plan, he said, is to “knock Lindbergh off their perch.” O’Connor played varsity baseball for four years with Medical Lake High School, and played on the All-State team. He continued playing ball at Yakima Valley College. He began coaching in 2007. In 2010, O’Connor moved to North Kitsap, where he helped coached back-toback league championship teams with the Vikings. The Vikings also had a playoff appearance in 2012. O’Connor said he’s had the opportunity to work with many aspiring athletes, including (but not limited to): Nick Benish, AJ Milyard, JT Nettleton, Nate Reece, and Zac Smit. “I could name so many kids,” he said. When applying for head coaching positions, O’Connor said he was unsure if he was ready. After his success with the Vikings and the Legion program, however, he changed his mind. As part of a winning team at North Kitsap, O’Connor said he appreciates the insight and opportunities Vikings head coach Jeff Weible and the rest of the coaching staff has given him. “[Weible] gave a young kid a chance,” O’Connor said. “He gave me all the opportunities in the world.” O’Connor said he’s lucky to be able to have all the See O’CONNOR, Page A11

Indianola Rowing Association moves to Poulsbo “We’ve had a lot of good feedback and support this year from Indianola and Port Gamble and we wanted to broaden that interest to include more of north Kitsap,” association president Kirsten Jewell said. The club built its fleet of boats to five four-oared shells and an eight-oared shell donated by the Port Townsend Rowing Club. The successful initial rowing season has drawn interest from new and experienced rowers across the county, Jewell said. “We plan on building
on our first season and we expect we’ll have an even stronger crew and larger membership in the coming year,” Jewell said. “Rowing on Liberty Bay should give us more geographic reach and excellent year-round rowing water.” The club’s name change, from Indianola Rowing Association to Kitsap Rowing Association, reflects that broader interest, Jewell said. In its first full racing season, the association’s men’s and women’s crews participated at several large
regional regattas, winning and placing at the Green Lake summer and fall regattas in Seattle and the Covered Bridge Regatta in Eugene, Ore. The club also took part in the Row for the Cure regatta on Lake Union in Seattle and raced in Everett and Port Townsend. Earlier this month, the association’s heavyweight men’s crew outrowed four other crews from Washington and Oregon to win the Green Lake Frostbite Regatta, then finished fourth out of 11 crews
the next day at Head of the Lake Regatta, a three-mile race that draws hundreds of top club and college competitors from across the U.S. and Canada. Under its orange and blue flag, the Kitsap Rowing Association (www.kitsaprowing.org) will begin a winter indoor and outdoor fitness program for new and experienced rowers later this month. The club expects to launch its 2013 season at Green Lake in March, competing against crews from across the Northwest and Canada.

Miller Bay in Indianola, then rowed through the summer and fall on Port Gamble Bay. “I am glad that this has come together,” Poulsbo Mayor Becky Erickson said in a message to the club. “There should be rowing on Liberty Bay.” The club’s new rowing venue, near Poulsbo’s Marine Science Center, will include dock space for launching 40-foot and 60-foot four- and eightoared rowing shells, making it ideal for winter and spring rowing.

the season came during the game against Warren Ave. The team shutout everyone but Warren Ave, and in the first game against Chico. In the playoffs, the Warriors defeated North Perry in a shutout and Chico in the finals with a shutout. “Our defense was stellar all season long,” Johnson said. “Our offense really came into its own.” Part of Johnson’s goal as a Pee-Wee football coach is to teach the fundamentals and prepare the players for higher levels of play. Johnson expects many of his players to succeed as they get older, as they retained much of what they learned. “A lot of those names … will have great high school careers,” he said. “Whether they are at North or Kingston [high schools].”

More than just a light display, it’s a labor of love Volunteers and Port of Kingston employees give back with an extravaganza of holiday illumination By KIPP ROBERTSON
krobertson@northkitsapherald.com
KINGSTON — Twice a week, the Port of Kingston office is transformed into a holiday lights workshop. Sitting around a few tables in the main room of the office, volunteers and port employees are working to turn strings of lights into LED masterpieces for the Port’s Country Christmas light display. Fish, crabs, poinsettias, a sunflower, and even a seahorse are just a few of the creations that have been created from the lights.
It’s an effort that involves more than a dozen volunteers. Working on a poinsettia of her own, Patty Fortune said the classes held in the port office have become a social function. A quick scan of the room Nov. 16, while listening to the chatter, and that’s easily verified. Making the displays is no sweat, for the most part. “It’s not rocket science,” Fortune said. “If you can count, you can do this.” However, not all displays are as simple as the experienced make them look.

My sister and I always took care of each other...
One of the most difficult plants to make are the Red Hot Poker. The pokers — genus Kniphofia — are also called Torch lily or Tritoma. Because of the complexity of the plant — red flowers on top, with yellow underneath and green stems — it makes for a challenge when stringing lights together. The lights also need to be held together tightly while the plant is created. This year, the main focus of new light creations are animals. In addition to many of the previous items seen at last year’s display, there will be
an ocean-themed section. It will also feature a “winter wonderland.” Look for the snowman. And watch for a special holiday appearance from a favorite animated movie. Workers weave LED lights into metal frames that are already shaped like the creature or item. The frames are not storebought. Like the final product, the frames are created at the Port. Marina attendant Ed Clark welds and forms the frames in the Port’s shop. The ideas come from those weaving the lights, and
even coloring books, which have simplistic outlines in them. Though some of the shapes are taller than some of the people working on them, and some are threedimensional, it doesn’t take Clark long to make the frames. Clark’s been welding “probably a lot longer than you’ve been alive,” he said — more than 26 years. Clark enjoys doing the work. Because there are more taxpayers than people who use the Kingston Port, he thinks of it as a way to give back to everyone. “It’s my way of giving back to the taxpayers,” he See LIGHTS, Page A13

Continued from page A12 said. Though workers do have directions for making various displays, volunteer Hollace Vaughan said they don’t necessarily follow them. That may be wise or not wise, but out of all the displays carried over from last year, only four will need some kind of repair. Creating a light display that will be up for one-anda-half months is not without its challenges. During
the light-making class Nov. 16, Christine Conners, the Port’s assistant business manager, was pulling apart a fish from last year for its red lights. The extra red lights that were ordered for this year did not arrive. So in order to finish the bottom of the poinsettia tree, sacrifices were made. Port employee Paige Savage is helping lead the light display effort this year. It’s not an easy task to coordinate, she said. The light display classes are held throughout the year, which helps keep

everything from being done last-minute. However, as Dec. 1 nears, Savage can still feel the pressure. “Once it comes to crunch time … trying to get everyone on the same page and assigning projects … there’s just so much to do,” she said. Along with making the displays, volunteers must set up and check the displays and make any needed fixes. “There’s just so much to do,” Savage said again. The volunteers are greatly appreciated. Most have helped with the light
display since the first year, Savage said. It can take three to four hours to make one flower. In order to meet the deadline, volunteers are taking flowers home with them to finish. “With the amount of flowers we have, there’s no way we could do this without them,” Savage said of the volunteers. In all, there’s about 14 volunteers. Port employees give their time when available as well. It’s a combined effort to provide some holiday cheer for everyone. “It’s a big part of the
community,” Savage said. “People come down here to see them … It’s nice to be part of something like that.”

Transient arrested Nov. 5 for assault, failure to register
POULSBO — A transient North Kitsap man was recently arrested after a series of run-ins with law enforcement. John M. Martinson, 28, is charged with failure to register as a sex offender, providing false or misleading statement to a public servant, and fourth-degree assault. Martinson was arrested Nov. 5 at Clearwater Casino, from which he has been prohibited since 2008. According to the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office report, security recognized him around midnight and attempted to bring him to the security office. Martinson allegedly shoved the security office and attempted to escape; he was “quickly subdued,” placed in handcuffs and taken to the security office. The sheriff’s deputy found Martinson had a felony warrant for failure to register as a sex offender. He was convicted of indecent liberties in Jefferson County in 1998, and provided a Poulsbo address upon release from Kitsap County Jail in 2011. A deputy discovered in May Martinson had moved from the residence several months earlier. The report states Martinson is a level 1 risk offender, the lowest possible risk to the community. Martinson was arrested for fourth-degree assault and first-degree criminal trespass and booked into Kitsap County Jail. Martinson was also booked him for providing
false information to law enforcement, stemming from an incident in August. Martinson remains in Kitsap County Jail on a total of $115,000 bail. — Megan Stephenson
Kingston man arrested for island burglary KINGSTON — A Kingston man was arrested for an attempted residential burglary on Bainbridge Island. Aaron Lee Ashby, 46, is charged with residential burglary Nov. 2. He allegedly tried to crawl through the window of a home on Gertie Johnson Road on Sept. 24. A witness to the incident described a man matching Ashby’s appearance attempting to crawl through the open window. The man had to step around various flower pots in order to gain a good position at the window. The man told the witness and the resident that his name was “Aaron,” but when he discovered police were being called, he immediately fled the scene. Later in the investigation, police showed both the witness and the resident a variety of suspect photos. Both picked out the photo of Ashby. The witness said that she was positive that Ashby was the man she found. The resident said she was “75 percent sure” that it was Ashby. Ashby is being held in a Kitsap County Jail on $20,000 bail. — Richard D. Oxley, Bainbridge Island Review

School band programs may cut back on trips soon Boosters hope to fend off fee by raising more money By KIPP ROBERTSON
krobertson@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — Susan Peters has seen the band budget cut each year since she took the band instructor job at North Kitsap High School about six years ago. Despite budget cuts, the program continues to grow. The cuts, to both North Kitsap and Kingston high school bands, has put a larger burden on band boosters. The North Kitsap band budget is about $200,000. Of that total, the district provided $2,477.92 for band transportation per quarter during the 2011-12 school year. “We’ve been taking hits to the point where we have no budget at all,” Peters said. “It puts a tremendous burden on students and parents.” In order to avoid a $125 pay-to-play fee this year, band program leaders and boosters agreed to try and raise more money. Marching band students already pay a $125 fee to participate. For a few years, Peters expects the cuts won’t have too much of a impact. However, to maintain fundraising for an extended period of time might be unrealistic, she said. The band programs may reduce the amount of travel that is done throughout the year. Randy Borek, North Kitsap High School Band Booster president, said it’s possible the band program will be scaled down in the 2012-13 school year. That would include attending fewer competitions. The marching band, for example, attends four competitions per year. It could be reduced to two, he said. Borek, who has two children in the band program, said he would like to see his sophomore student go through four years of band. “I would certainly like to see it scaled down before it goes away,” he said. The band booster clubs rely on parents. At North Kitsap, parents must have a student in band in order to participate in the school’s band booster club. Student enrollment has been steady
with the program, despite the district losing students, Borek said. The Kingston High School Band Boosters are in the same boat. Shawna Reimann, the KHS band booster president, said the total amount the program received from the district was $5,500 in 2011-12. Reimann said taking the band to Portland for the Portland Rose Festival cost about $30,000. Reimann said the KHS band program is fine this year because boosters were successful last year. The program is surviving on savings. The cuts have also forced the boosters to become creative when cutting costs. Along with filling buses to capacity, parents are doing more chaperoning, Reimann said. Instead of renting a truck to transport instruments and equipment, they are using a horse trailer. In the future, if money gets more tight, Reimann echoed her North Kitsap counterparts; the marching band will have to reduce its number of performance venues. Reimann said she still expects the school board to charge a pay-to-play fee for band students. If that happens, she said she would like to see the band programs receive more funding, like sports. Dan Weedin, North Kitsap School Board president, said he was pleased that the boosters were willing to fundraise more, instead of the board imposing fees. Weedin said he does not see a scenario where there would be a fee, such as the one suggested during the budget adoption process. However, he cannot say it will never happen. “In my personal opinion, it’s highly unlikely that we would see that,” he said. Weedin, who is the regular football announcer at North Kitsap Stadium for the Vikings, said the band programs are necessary, 100 percent. Not only are the programs successful, he said they help build the culture of the schools. To help with expenses, the band programs continue to host fundraisers throughout the year. On Dec. 1, North Kitsap will host Putting on the Ritz, 7 p.m., at First Lutheran Church. The event includes an auction and will include
performances by the Jazz Band, with guest performers. Tickets are $10 in advance, $12 at the door. On March 8, North Kitsap will host “Poulsbo’s
Got Talent” in the North Kitsap Auditorium, from 6-9 p.m. The talent show is community-wide. Auditions will be held in January. Acts will include music and
comedy. Guests will have the chance to vote for their favorites. On Dec. 15, KHS band boosters will host a Papa Murphy’s takeover in
Kingston, where money from each pizza purchase goes to the band. On Feb. 9, KHS will hold its silent auction at the Indianola Club House.

(hereinafter “the Warwick Property”) 1.2 Warwick has made diligent efforts to determine the ages, residences and post office addresses of the Defendant named in this action, and her unknown heirs, grantees, devises, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and whether any of them be living or deceased, and has been unable to locate with certainty said Defendants whether within or without the State of Washington, or to ascertain their post office addresses. 1.3 The real property which is the subject of this lawsuit to quiet title is located in Kitsap County, Washington, and is described as follows: PARCEL l: LOT 29. BLOCK 4. ISLAND LAKE PARK DIVISION NO. 1. ACCORDING TO THE PLAT RECORDED IN VOLUME 4 OF PLATS, PAGE 116, RECORDS OF KITSAP COUNTY, WASHINGTON. (hereinafter “Lot 29”).

It is vacant and unoccupied land. 1.4 Julia Evensen (hereinafter “Evensen”), her heirs, successors and assigns have an Interest In Lot 29. 1.5 This court has jurisdiction and venue is proper in Kitsap County. II. FACTS 2.1 Warwick received Lot 29 from Conrad Jonason by quit claim deed recorded on December 2, 1976, under Kitsap County Auditor’s File No. 1152159. The deed appears to be a defective attempt to convey title to Lot 29, as Mr. Jonason was not the title owner to Lot 29 based on the investigation of Warwick’s title company. In any event, Warwick had an honest belief, based on reasonable grounds, that she had acquired a valid legal title to Lot 29. 2.2 Warwick and her predecessors in title have used the entirety of Lot 29 openly, exclusively, notoriously, continuously, and as actual and natural owners would for more than ten (10) years. Warwick and her predecessors possession of Lot 29 was made under claim and color of title, and in good faith. 2.3 Warwick has paid real property taxes on

Anderson Parkway budget bumped up for contingencies By Megan Stephenson
mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com
POULSBO — The remodel of Anderson Parkway will cost the city of Poulsbo a little more since moving the project to February. The council approved a $50,000 increase in the project budget Nov. 7, to cover any contingencies or delays the contractor runs into because of weather. The project was originally planned for October. The parking lot will be rebuilt and outfitted with stormwater treatment features such as rain gardens, funded partly by a Department of Ecology grant. Preparation will begin
in January and paving will take place in February. The paving schedule will allow 60 percent of parking to be available during the project; the paving will take place in two three-day periods. The total project will cost $570,000 — $270,000 from the stormwater grant, $125,000 from the city’s stormwater fund, and $175,000 from the parking improvement fund. Also included in the design, but not in the funding, are electric car conduits, more electrical wiring, and a new solid waste enclosure. These projects will cost an additional $38,000. The parking lot will have

KINGSTON — Larry Thoreen wasn’t surprised when the results were announced that J’aime Les Crêpes was voted best creperie in the region. Thoreen visits daily, sometimes for a sweet or savory crêpe, sometimes for a coffee, but always for the customer service and friendly banter. Does he have a favorite crêpe of the 40 or so made here? “I like ’em all,” he said. Others agree. J’aime Les Crêpes, which is celebrating its 10th year of serving French-style

buckwheat crêpes near the Kingston ferry landing, was voted best of 50 crêperies in the region by respondents to an Evening Magazine online poll. It’s the second
time the crêperie has won top billing: It won first in 2010, second in 2011, and third in 2009. The results were announced Nov. 12.
A crêpe is a type of very thin pancake, usually made from buckwheat flour, served with a variety of sweet or savory fillings. Common savory fillings
are cheese, ham and eggs, mushrooms, ratatouille, and various meats. Common sweet fillings include custard, fruit spreads, maple syrup, Nutella spread, preserves, whipped cream, and sliced soft fruits. Paul Pluska, owner, was U.S. Navy musician when he was introduced to crêpes in France. He returned to France to study crêpe making — “I learned at the source” — and based his crêperie on La Crêperie in

Western Washington counties, including Kitsap. Northwest MLS director Frank Wilson, managing broker at John L. Scott Real Estate Poulsbo/Kingston, said Kitsap County is continuing a “slow and sane” recovery. “October continued the trend of increased sales activity,” he said, pointing to a 23 percent increase in pending sales of single-family homes in October versus a year ago. “We also have fewer
houses on the market.” Wilson said 14 of the 19 Northwest MLS map areas in Kitsap County have less than a five-month supply of homes and condos. Among areas with limited supply are Bainbridge Island, Chico, Indianola, Port Orchard and Poulsbo. Wilson cited extremely low interest rates as a contributor to healthy real estate activity. “Where there is activity, there is recovery and appreciation,” he said.
Paris. J’aime Les Crêpes is decorated with street signs from France, and jazz often plays over the speakers. On this particular misty morning, however, crêpe chef Chelsea Harsila has top 40 hits from the 1980s playing. She’s serving sweet and savories with some Pet Shop Boys. Popular sweet crêpes include the chocolate and strawberry crêpe with whipped cream. Popular savory crêpes include the chicken and spinach crêpe. Pluska tries to keep the crêperie authentic — the atmosphere friendly and lively, the crêpes true to France. “The best compliment is when someone from France comes into our shop and tells us we know what we’re doing,” Pluska said.
In Kitsap County in October, there were 348 new listings, up from 341 the same month a year earlier; and 1,480 total listings, down from 1,690. There were 345 pending sales, up from 286 the same month a year earlier; and 279 closed sales, up from 218. The median price of a closed sale was $225,000, down from $234,204 the same month a year earlier. Kitsap County’s median price was the seventh highest of 21 counties in the Northwest MLS.

Kingston Port suspends mobile vendor applications By MEGAN STEPHENSON
mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com
KINGSTON — Bowing to pressure from downtown merchants, the Kingston Port Commission voted Monday to suspend mobile vendor applications until the community at large has a wider economic development discussion. “How do we fit new businesses into the community,” Commission Chairman Walt Elliott said. “We need a wider consensus than the three commissioners here.” Elliott, however, abstained from voting on the resolution, which was passed with Commissioners Marc Bissonnette and Pete DeBoer’s votes. Jessica DuMond presented her business plan for DuMond’s Mini Doughnuts to the board in September, to rent two parking spaces for her mobile food stand. After discussion, the board voted to approve the “nontraditional use of parking,”
and gave DuMond the go-ahead to apply for the needed county and health code permits. DuMond had agreed to a yearly lease in the port’s lot at Highway 104 and Washington Avenue, near the port’s only current mobile vendor, the 104 Trolley. DuMond intended to open her business seven days a week. Neither Elliott nor DuMond expected the critical reaction from downtown Kingston merchants. One business owner said DuMond’s stand would be “skimming off the top” of local profits. Betsy Cooper of the Kingston Citizen Advisory Council said the port didn’t publicize the available spaces or mobile vendor criteria well enough. Amy Anderson of Cup and Muffin and Paul Pluska of J’aime Les Crepes said they were concerned about unfair competition. At Monday’s meeting, Darren Gurnee, owner of Main Street Alehouse, presented the concerns on
behalf of the businesses. The doughnut stand would have a lower cost advantage over brick-and-mortar stores, it would directly compete with existing businesses, and there are already vacant commercial spaces downtown. DuMond started as an artist at the Kingston Farmers Market on Saturdays, she said. The market is a wonderful venue, but is better for food, produce and craft businesses right now, she said. She had the idea for a fresh doughnut stand, but the market doesn’t provide electricity to the merchants. DuMond spoke with Clint Dudley, president of the Farmers Market, and was advised to talk to the port about her options, she said. The port was supportive and had the space, trash, water and electricity options for her business, she said. “I’m a mother, an unemployed woman,” she said. “I saw a way to provide for
my family.” Pluska also asked the port to open up its parking spaces for retail businesses at a competitive bid. Pluska recently submitted his own mobile vendor application, but the port has no available spots for lease. Henry said they compared fair market value of other comparable leases to come up with the rental cost for DuMond’s Mini Doughnuts. The Farmers Market pays 2 cents per square foot, while DuMond’s rental of two parking spots would cost $1.75 per square foot.
“Location is everything,” DuMond said, adding the available spaces downtown are too “off the beaten path” for a new business. Many of Kingston’s brickand-mortar stores began as vendor businesses at the Farmers Market, and new entrepreneurs need lowcost beginnings, Elliott said. As a businesswoman, DuMond understands where the other businesses are coming from. However, Kingston has now become an unwelcome place. DuMond said she is looking at other towns and
Farmers Markets for her business. “We’re not going to close shop and tuck our tails between our legs just because the bigger businesses say ‘no,’ ” she said. Colleen Carey, executive director of the local Chamber of Commerce, and County Commissioner Rob Gelder encouraged a consensus meeting between the port, county and business owners. “We can’t stop business from coming in just because they compete with the business already here,” Carey said.

Iraq War vets walk to call attention to PTSD By SUSAN RIEMER Vashon-Maury Island Beachcomber
B
REMERTON — Rain fell steadily as the three men in vivid orange shirts and bearing United States flags hiked up the long hill from the north end ferry, a striking contrast to the gray clouds hanging low in the sky above them. Below the American flags, they carried smaller flags commemorating those wounded or killed in action. Children and adults fell in step with the men and joined them for their wet walk. These men — all veterans of the Iraq war — spent Veterans Day weekend on a nearly 60-mile trek from Naval Base Kitsap near Bremerton to Joint Base LewisMcChord, via Vashon Island. Their mission: to raise awareness of the challenges service men and women face when they return from war. At the top of that list, the men said, are post-traumatic

Continued from page 2 talked with guests and Johnson spoke about their purpose. Afterward, they stayed at the home of Dave and Helen Andrews, who, the next morning, spoke glowingly about them. “We gained more from this than these fine young men did,” Dave said. Helen agreed, “It was truly fabulous,” she said, adding that she had tears in her eyes when she watched them leave, flags waving above them. The men stepped off near dawn, planning to end their day at the memorial of their unit with friends and family at Fort Lewis. Britt, 29, and Johnson, 31, have traveled a long road since enlisting in the Army fresh from high school, intent on serving their country. Britt, Johnson, and Johnson’s wife Krianne shared some of their experiences in a conversation at a coffee shop in Port Orchard, where the Johnsons live. The two men met in 2003 and served in the Army’s infantry, a branch of the military whose members — all men — are trained to fight on foot and face-to-face. Johnson said he believes there is more sense of brotherhood in the infantry than in any other part of the Army. “There is a special bond you have to make,” he said. Britt agreed. “We all love each other,” he said. All three men served two tours in Iraq together, and Johnson planned for a 30-year military career. Those plans changed on Dec. 3, 2006, when, in the worst ambush U.S. soldiers had faced since 2003, he was shot in the head, lost an eye and nearly died. After the shooting, Britt, who had been nearby, cleaned out Johnson’s helmet. At Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, D.C., a doctor told his family members that he would never walk or communicate intelligently again. The bullet is still lodged in Johnson’s skull and he has diminished vision in his remaining eye. But he works out daily, competes in military athletic events and hopes to participate in the Paralympic games. Walking 60 miles in Northwest fall weather may not rate as extreme
Vashon islanders greet Iraq War veterans Andy Britt, Will Carroll and Chess Johnson on their 60-mile walk to raise awareness of the challenges service men and women face when they return from war. Team Hostile / Contributed for men trained for combat, but both men say — as people with brain injuries — planning and preparation had its challenges. Still, they said they were undaunted and prepared for even the worst weather. “The more difficult the mission, the more we want to do it,” Britt said. Johnson and Britt speak passionately about a list of issues they would like to see addressed: the high rates of suicide, incarceration, alcohol and drug addiction among veterans, improvements made to the VA system, more employment options for vets and, of course, more research devoted to PTSD and TBI and greater awareness about it. Both men acknowledge the issues they are raising are complex. “We’re not trying to solve them,” Britt said. “We’re just trying to get people to recognize they exist.” In fact, the main issues inspiring this walk, PTSD and TBI, exist for thousands of military men and women. Between 13 and 30 percent of deployed combat vets develop PTSD, according to Laura Merritt, a mental health therapist at the PTSD clinic at the VA’s Puget Sound Health Care System, Seattle division. Symptoms can range from flashbacks to irritability to withdrawing from others. In Washington state alone, 33,000 soldiers have PTSD, according to Johnson. Help is available through the VA, Merritt said, and she encourages any vet struggling to seek assistance. Traumatic brain injury,
considered the hallmark injury of the Iraq and Afghan wars, also has had devastating effects. Its symptoms overlap with those of PTSD, Merritt said, including emotional and cognitive problems, such as memory and concentration issues, irritability and agitation. In the Army alone, roughly 20,000 traumatic brain injuries have occurred every year from 2006 to 2011, according to the Department of Defense. Symptoms may last for years, and, unfortunately, such injuries increase the odds of developing PTSD and depression. For both men, these statistics hit close to home. Explosions from improvised explosive devices (IEDs) were a part of everyday life, they said. “I don’t know a single man in my brigade that wasn’t blown up at least 50 times,” Johnson said. Repeated blast exposures caused Britt’s brain injury. His military file, he said, includes nearly 40 documented blast exposures, and he believes 30 to 40 percent of those situations resulted in a concussion. Britt and Johnson have been through difficult times after leaving the military. Some of the challenges Johnson has faced appear in the documentary “Exit Wound,” directed and produced by former islander Hunter Holcombe. Part of the film, which will be shown at the Vashon Eagles next week, shows him struggling to feel safe in a restaurant, people talking and laughing around him, while he checks and re-checks windows, and ultimately decides he can-
not stay out in public. Britt says he, too, struggles with being out in public, especially when he is alone. A trip to the store, routine for most people, is difficult for him, he said, and he experiences such severe anxiety that sometimes he cannot stay to buy what he needs.
Going in the middle of the night makes it easier, he said, and he suits up for the trip, with headphones on and a hood pulled up. Britt, a single father of two young children, said this is especially hard for him when he wants to take them on a simple trip to the mall. The men also hope some of the stigma of being a vet with PTSD will fade in and out of the military — and say, too, that the public has little understanding of the good they did in Iraq, including building schools and setting up and securing the country’s first elections. “We did not go there wanting to kill,” Britt said. “We went there wanting to restore peace and health. And our mission is the same in America.” Fulfilling that mission is why they spent Veterans Day weekend walking. “This band of brothers I was told about from day one … that would never let me down,” Johnson said, “I am fulfilling my part of that.”

Camarda: Quietly one of NW’s top winemakers F
or someone who has enjoyed tremendous success as one of America’s top winemakers, Chris Camarda’s proudest moment as owner of Andrew Will is surprisingly simple. In the early 1990s, he was walking through Discovery Park in Seattle’s Magnolia neighborhood. It was the year his first wine from the 1989 vintage had come out, and he happened to look toward a picnic table and saw a bottle of his wine being enjoyed. “That was a big deal to me,” he said. “I had done it. I had made a wine.” The Wisconsin native grew up in Seattle and worked in restaurants. He and his friends were exploring wines in the mid-1980s, so in 1987, he decided to make some as a hobby. “I was fascinated by it,” he said. After a second batch the next year, he was hooked, so he went professional in 1989. In 1994, he moved to Vashon Island, a short ferry ride from the West Seattle neighborhood of Fauntleroy. Today, Andrew Will is one of three wineries on the island. The 5,000-case winery is not open to the public. Camarda is a partner in famed Champoux Vineyards in the Horse Heaven Hills with Quilceda Creek Vintners, Powers Winery and Woodward Canyon Winery. He’s also an owner in Two Blondes, a vineyard near the Yakima Valley town of Zillah. And he has purchased grapes from Ciel du Cheval on Red Mountain since his inaugural vintage. He also gets grapes from Discovery Vineyard, near Champoux. Despite Andrew Will’s acclaim, Camarda still has room on his mailing list for wine lovers who want access to some of the Northwest’s finest reds.

GF dressing with fennel and rosemary sausage O
MG! I am now a big fan of dressing — no stuffing! I never liked stuffing pre-gluten free living. I never understood the big deal with dressing or stuffing or whatever your family calls it. Now I love it. This is a really easy and awesome gluten-free dressing with fennel and rosemary sausage. I have been thinking about this the past few days because I considered not making it. I must say that there were a few people in my family that were kind of bummed that it wasn’t going to be on the menu. So I thought about it and said, what the heck ... I’ll figure it out! So here it goes. My quantity might be off, depending on the size of your family, but this should serve 4-6 people. Ingredients One loaf of Maninis Gluten Free bread or your own 6-8 stalks of celery 1 large yellow onion 1 large fennel with the

I use Kitchen Basics Chicken or Turkey Broth GF and NO MSG, or Trader Joe’s Turkey Broth GF and NO MSG. Directions Chop up the loaf of bread into cubes. Put the cubes into a bowl and drizzle the olive oil on top to just slightly coat the bread and mix. Add a pinch of sea salt, black pepper.

and mix well. Add the rest of the seasoning — 1 tbs. of thyme and Italian seasoning, 1/2 tbs. of garlic powder. Mix well and slowly add another 1/2 cup to cup of broth until you reach your desired moistness. This is the part that you can add more or less and where everyone seems to vary on liking “the dressing/stuffing” semi-moist to almost soggy. I will let you make that call from this point. Mix well and continue to cook over medium-low heat covered for about 10-15 minutes. Please note that by covering and letting it simmer it will add moisture to the process so add the broth slowly or use less until it is done cooking. Put the dressing/stuffing into a serving dish and add the fresh spiky fennel to the top and serve. Salud!

Palisades. Then moved to Kingston in 2001 and began teaching at the Kingston Community Center and at Island Fitness on Bainbridge Island. In 2006, I opened the Kingston Yoga Center on Cliffside Drive in Kingston. During these years in Kitsap, I have taught hundreds of local students. It takes years to master the techniques of yoga, but there are some short, easy to learn, practices that almost anyone can do in just a few minutes. The catch is you have to do them regularly. It’s just that simple. n Subject: Tight neck and shoulders. n Practice: Take a deep breath and hold. Gently squeeze the shoulders up to ears. Exhale with a sigh and, at the same time, drop the shoulders.

n Theory: When you’re under stress, you unconsciously “turtle” your neck and shoulders and hold them in that position all day long. The gentle squeeze, sigh and exhale cause a relaxation response and a release. n Comments: This exercise must be done several times during the day to be effective. For example, do it before you answer your phone and while on hold; when you check the time; at a red light or stop sign and while waiting in line. Soon you will realize why your neck and shoulder muscles were so sore. n Note: Proven highly effective in reducing nurses’ sick leave at hospitals. That’s why this exercise has been called the “nurses’ shrug.” — Michael Szymanski, kingstonyogacenter@gmail. com.

Kitsap Week Sudoku
Sunshine Ladies save donated stuffed animals from rummage sales for me every year, sometimes by the garbage bag full. We hope the next little owners will feel a tiny bit of the love and care that have gone into them, and be reminded of the Magi who brought gifts to the Christ Child to celebrate his birth. Giving a gift means nothing without careful thought and a lot of love going into it.
Sudoku is a number-placing puzzle based on a 9x9 grid with several given numbers. The object is to place rating the numbers 1 to 9 in the empty squares so that each row, each Puzzle 1 (Easy, difficulty 0.37) column and each 3x3 box contains the same number only once.

look” and “Mom, can I ask Santa” for this or that. Sadly, most never saw the item they hungered for. The Depression was still the enemy. But for those magical moments, the scene portrayed better days ahead. I stood in awe and drank it all in as only a child could. I look at children now, and wonder: Do any of them feel like that little 6-year-old of so long ago? During the holidays, or any day really, we see stores and shops that are filled with every toy one can imagine. Checking the closets of many children, you will find enough toys for five or more. Most are played with and then given to charity, or thrown into garbage fills. As for me, I collect good-condition, stuffed animals for a child who may not have much of a Christmas. They are put into the washer in Woolite on a gentle cycle, dried, brushed and new ribbons put on them. When through, they look as good as new. The

here is something mystical about evenings in late December, bringing to mind a small 6-year-old child who felt the magic of Christmas in 1937, the year Seattle had a rare blustery snowstorm. Our family had no money, after losing everything in 1929, and living in an old walk-up drafty cold-water flat in town, with one bathroom to a floor. If the folks had an extra nickel, we could ride the old rattling streetcars all over the city with free transfers. They were little chits of paper to hand to the next conductor. The streets had jovial Santas on every corner in red suits, ringing large silver bells, singing out “Merry Christmas!” And if you had that extra penny it went into the black hanging iron pot for someone worse off than you. Music came from the warm five-and-dime stores as young ladies were play-
ing carols on the piano and trying to interest patrons into buying sheet music while shopping on their limited budgets. An out-of-work musician might drop by and play his instrument, getting the crowd singing, with a joke or two. Young women were busily sitting on stools behind a counter repairing long silk stockings. This was before the nylons of today. A run was a disaster for the working girl. The magic of that clear icy night with a bright moon shining overhead, was in the anticipation of seeing the Bon Marché department store’s animated Christmas window, with a Victorian family scene. The happy, smiling family stood admiring the beautiful candlelit Christmas tree with gifts and wonderful toys beneath. The watching children had little noses pressed against the windows that steamed up from their warm breath, and one could hear the chatter of “Look mom,
