hree of the top local news stories of 2012 came early in the year, seemingly back-to-back, and were full of tragedy. A Bremerton woman was murdered early in the month, an 8-year-old third-grader was shot in her classroom a few weeks later and a state trooper was killed during a traffic stop in Gorst the next day.
Serial killer on the loose? The body of 61-year-old Melody Brannon was found in the 1300 block of High Avenue in Bremerton around 6 p.m., Feb. 3. Brannon’s murder joined the unsolved May 2011 Warren Avenue murder of 19-year-old Sara Burke. Police said that a June 20, 2011 knife attack on Kenny Cobb as he walked along Burwell Street was also related to the murders and eventually led the Bremerton Police Department to announce the possibility of a local serial killer. That possibility, with little else by way of explanation from BPD, would terrify

When asked whether people should keep the sketches up around town after the man was interviewed, police wouldn’t say. No arrests have been made and the cases remain unsolved.

Girl shot in classroom
Trooper killed
A few weeks after Brannon’s murder, just before the bell would go off to release students from their Armin Jahr Elementary classroom on Feb. 22, 8-year-old Amina Bowman was shot in her stomach when a .45 caliber handgun in a 9-year-old classmate’s backpack discharged. The girl’s parents, John Bowman and Teri Jolene Bowman, eventually went on to file a civil lawsuit against the Bremerton School District. The family made claims for $400,000 in medical costs and will seek at least $10 million in general damages. The Bowmans allege that district officials knew the boy posed a safety threat but failed to take appropriate action. Jamie Chaffin, the boy’s mother, faced crimi-
Washington State Patrol Trooper Tony Radulescu was shot in the head by Joshua Blake during a traffic stop on state Route 16 near Gorst in the early morning hours of Feb. 23. Radulescu was the first patrol officer killed in Kitsap County in 34 years. Tony Radulescu Blake fled the scene and eventually shot himself as a SWAT team circled in on the house he was hiding in. In the car with Blake at the time of
A family dog was rescued and no injuries were reported following a New Year’s Eve house fire in the 4000 block of Silver Lane NW in Bremerton. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue crews got a structure fire call shortly before 10 p.m. Monday night. Upon arrival, crews observed smoke coming from the eaves of the two story, single-family home and flames near the roofline on one side of the house. Firefighters entered the home and found a fire in the kitchen that had extended into the attic. The fire was quickly extinguished. The homeowners, a husband, wife and their young son, had been out and when they returned home they saw the smoke before going inside. The wife and son went to a neighbor’s house and called 911 at about 9:50 p.m. The husband entered the residence and found heavy smoke on the second floor. He could hear the smoke alarms going off, so he grabbed the family dog and evacuated the residence. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue Public Information Officer Ileana LiMarzi said the fire is not considered suspicious and the Kitsap County Fire Marshal was called to the scene to determine the cause. The investigation is ongoing at this time. LiMarzi said there is heavy fire damage in the kitchen area and attic and heavy smoke damage throughout

the shooting was 18-year-old Megan G. Mollet, who Blake had told to turn away as he fired across her in the passenger seat to kill Radulescu. Ultimately, Mollet and five others were convicted in helping Blake to escape the scene of the crime. They received between 6 months in jail and 14 months in prison for rendering criminal assistance in the case.
Dicks retires In March, following a state record 18 terms in Congress, Norm Dicks, a Belfair Democrat who grew up in Bremerton, announced that he would retire. Prior to his 36-year career in the House, Dicks spent eight years on the staff of U.S. Senator Warren Magnuson. Dicks was a political power broker in the other Washington and his legacy will be marked by the transformations of downtown Bremerton and Tacoma, environmental restoration efforts in Puget Sound and his unwavering commitment to securing a strong military presence in the 6th District. Dicks’ successor will be Gig Harbor Democrat Derek Kilmer who earned his predecessor’s early endorsement and cruised to easy election victory.

Harrison signs deal Harrison Medical Center signed a non-binding letter of intent to affiliate with the Tacoma-based Franciscan Health System late in the year to expand services, improve the delivery and quality of care, and broaden access to services for individuals, employers and communities in the South Puget Sound and on the Kitsap and Olympic peninsulas. In announcing the deal, Harrison Medical Center President and Chief Executive Officer Scott Bosch said, “This is a very positive thing for the communities we serve that can potentially very much enhance quality and reduce costs.” Leaders of the two nonprofit health systems expect to complete the affiliation process by June 30. That work will include hammering out an actual agreement, getting approval from state and federal regulators and finalizing the deal.
Hello and goodbye The aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis left Bremerton for the Middle East Aug. 22 less than six months after coming home from there. The Stennis was originally slated to head for the western Pacific this month, but Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta ordered her back to the Middle East following a request by U.S. Central Command commander Marine

Bangor expands Overwater work got underway in the fall for a second explosives handling wharf at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor, home to eight Trident submarines. The wharf will be used load and unload ballistic missiles. Before work began, the Navy agreed to pay $6.9 million in compensation for damaging habitat as part of the $715 million project. It
also agreed to pay about $9 million to the Skokomish, Gamble S’Klallam, Jamestown S’Klallam and Lower Elwha Klallam tribes for fish projects. The Suquamish Tribe and Ground Zero for Nonviolent Action, an anti-nuclear weapons group, each filed federal lawsuits seeking to stop or delay the construction of the new wharf.
Big blaze A three-alarm fire destroyed six businesses in a Silverdale retail complex on the afternoon of Jan. 8, sending various employees into the parking lots at 9995 Silverdale Way NW as it quickly devoured
the building. The fire was the largest in Silverdale in more than a decade. The fire and resulting damage displaced an estimated 40 employees, but none were hurt in the blaze that started in the Desert Sun Tanning Salon shortly after 2 p.m. Authorities said the fire started after a tanning bed bulb malfunctioned. Generally tanning bed fires are contained to the salons in which they occur, largely due to the engineering of drywall material that is rated to withstand fire for up to 45 minutes before succumbing. “No one expected the whole thing to burn,” said Ken Hwang, owner of the retail complex.
Range shuttered, reopened After years of legal wrangling, the Kitsap Rifle and Revolver Club on Seabeck Highway was shut down in February. The legal wrangling, though, continues. An April Washington State Court of Appeals ruling lifted the public nuisance injunction that shuttered the club, after a determination was made that closure of the club caused more harm to the club and its members than it did to the county and area residents by leaving the range open. Further review of the case is expected in 2013 as the wrangling wrangles on.

For both the nurses and the children that come through Harrison, the bears often act as symbols of hope and strength. “Unless you’re involved here you don’t really know the importance of it,” Harlow said. “When you see a little girl clutching a teddy bear, it just warms your heart.” The children at Harrison medical center carry the support of their community with them in the form of stuffed bears, sock monkeys and beanie babies. For those like the children Ludlow and Smith recalled, the embodiment of that support stays with them for years. And, even when the stuffing is gone and the stitching ripped, the effect that small toy had on a child never fades.
Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue had eight units on scene and were assisted by Bremerton Fire Department as well as Navy Region Northwest. LiMarzi used the fire to stress the importance of smoke alarms.

Aloha, Sen. Daniel Inouye
I
’ve met a lot of people in my life, but no one like Sen. Daniel Inouye. A soft-spoken son of Japanese immigrants, he rose to become a war hero and represented Hawaii in Congress from the time it became a state. But I always believed he was an Indian at heart. My good friend for more than 30 years, he died Dec. 17 at 88. He served in the Senate for 50 years, the second longest term in Editorial U.S. history, and became one of the greatest champions for Indian people that we have ever seen. Danny understood us and our issues in a way that many Americans can’t. I think it’s because he knew what it was like to be different, to be someone who came from a people set apart. As a 17-year-old, he rushed to Billy Frank Jr. enlist after Japanese bombs fell on Pearl Harbor in 1941. At a time Chairman, NW when most Japanese-Americans Indian Fisheries were rounded up and forced into Commission internment camps around the United States, Inouye was fighting in Europe. In Italy he lost his right arm, and nearly his life, in actions that were later recognized by a Medal of Honor, our country’s highest military award. Many might question why a Japanese American like Inouye would fight so hard for a country that treated his people so poorly. That same question could be asked of Indians, AfricanAmericans and many others. As a tribal member and a veteran, I can tell you that we did it for the greater good of everyone in the hope that things would get better. But for Danny, and for many of us, it took awhile for things to get better. On his way home to Hawaii while recuperating from his war wounds, he made a stop-over in San Francisco. Wanting to look good for his homecoming, he stepped into a barbershop, but was told they didn’t cut “Jap” hair. Despite the injuries he suffered and the racism he experienced, he was never bitter. He became a quiet giant in the Senate, always with an eye toward helping those in need of social justice. He worked tirelessly to support the sovereignty of See OUR CORNER, A6

LETTERS Protecting children and the country As always, the Associated Press picks only a couple suggestions by the NRA and makes light of pro-
tecting our children by armed security. The same security that protects the President 24/7. Is any President or any elected office more important than the life of one child. If you said “yes,” then you are truly part the problem. Anything less than the toughest measure of security to protect our children invites itself to repeat this tragedy over and over
again. Ask President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder about the “Fast and Furious” mission. They sent AK-47’s into Mexico illegally to drug lords whom in turn killed hundreds of men, women and, yes, children and our border See LETTERS, A5

motivator. Rejection inspires me to find out why I was rejected in the first place. At times, I have come to understand that the rejection was warranted and the decision made to reject me was for the overall best at the time. Other times, I have discovered the rejection was for reasons completely outside of my control that really had nothing to with me and everything to do with the desperate political survival of the decision making individuals involved. So here is my New Year’s toast to the next couple of years filled with planning, implementing and working through some rather significant personal changes and challenges as I look to redirect my skills, talents and passion for increased service to my community, my neighbors and my wonderful city of Bremerton.

The power of legacy
Thank you from Miss Silverdale In my year as Miss Silverdale I experienced all that I hoped I would, and more. As Miss Silverdale 2012 I witnessed how involved the Miss Poulsbo, Miss Kitsap, Miss Silverdale Scholarship Organization was, in each community, and I thought to myself, it is an honor to be a part of such an organization. This organization is more than a pageant; it is a supporter of higher education for young ladies, a source that encourages confidence, and a lifetime bond. I thank God for this opportunity, my family, and friends — who have supported me entirely, especially my mother. This year would not have been so wonderful without her enduring love, support and encouragement even during the absence of my father as he continues to serve this great nation we love and call home. A warm and sincere thank you to my sponsors and lifelong friends: the Ellington family, my New Horizon Baptist Church Family, my pastor and co-pastor Mack and Rose Litton, and Bella Bella Cupcakes. Your generosity is much appreciated. Thank you to my beautiful and intelligent litter sister, Melony, and her parents Mr. and Mrs. Bourgeois for their love and support. Thank you to all the judges. A special thank you to the Miss Poulsbo, Miss Kitsap, Miss Silverdale Scholarship Pageant Executive Board: Mr. Bruce Nilsen, Mrs. Lynda Nilsen, Mrs. Lori McClanahan, Mrs. Michelle Rider, and Ms. Gisela Griffiths. Your time and efforts is often not acknowledged but never goes unappreciated. My year would not have been so splendid without your involvement. Thank you Ms. Michele Wasson, my executive director, for your time, dedication and enthusiasm over the year. Holly, thank you for the great company and wit you brought with you to the appearances. This organization has helped me further my platform, Unity in the Community, and for that I am grateful. While Miss Silverdale has not been a title as long as Miss Poulsbo or Miss Kitsap I feel that this title is so important as it reflects the diverse community of a military town, where I have grown up and matured after years of moving. Silverdale has become my home, my community and a place of roots where I have learned to ask what can I do to serve my community, rather than

ask what the community can do for me. Thank you to every person in my community for your knowledge, lessons, and support. This year would not have been as fulfilling without my two companions, Michaela Meeker and Jessicajae Townsend, to make sure that each appearance was always a good time. Michaela, we have had a bond since the beginning and I am so glad that we were able to enjoy this experience together! Jessica, we had some special moments together and so many great laughs. Thank you, Michaela and Jessica, I am excited to see what the future has in store for all of us. This transition is bittersweet, but all good things must eventually end. There are many people that I will miss, lessons learned and memories made. An experience like this is one that I cannot keep to myself, but hope that the next Miss Silverdale can enjoy, learn from, and appreciate. Thank you for allowing me to be your Miss Silverdale 2012.

A 45-year-old Bremerton man was struck by a vehicle near the intersection of state Route 303 and McWilliams Road at about 9:02 p.m. on New Year’s Eve. According to the Washington State Patrol, Bremerton resident Karl A. Flores, 45, was on foot when he entered the northbound lane of SR 303 from the east. That’s when he was struck by a pink 1996 Volkswagen Jetta being driven by Bremerton resident. Flores was eventually transported to Tacoma General Hospital. The driver, who was wearing a seatbelt at the time, was unhurt and despite reportable damage to her vehicle was able to drive it from the scene. The state patrol said that the collision was the result of Flores being in the roadway and no charges were filed.
editorial CONTINUED FROM A4
Indian tribes across the country, and equally as hard to gain that same recognition for native Hawaiians. During his time in the Senate he helped pass many pieces of legislation important to Indian people. Among them are the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990, The Tribal Self Governance Act of 1994 and the American Indian Trust Fund Management Reform Act of 1994. Before enlisting in the Army, he was planning to be a doctor — a surgeon — someone who could help people. In the end, that’s just what he did, but he helped many, many more people while serving in the Senate than he ever could as a doctor. I will miss him deeply and so will all of Indian Country. One of the things I’ll miss most might surprise you. Danny was one heck of a piano player. We will not forget this man who understood and helped Indian people like few in this country ever have, a man who worked so hard and endured so much to make our country a better place for everyone.

Strengthen community health care system By Joe Rosza
Kitsap Mental Health Services
With yet another horrific tragedy resulting in the loss of many innocent, young lives, desperate discussions are focusing on how to prevent such events from ever occurring again. Out of the fevered discussions which encompass gun limits, bullet-proof backpacks, improved building security measures, better threat assessments, arming professionals with lethal responses, slowly coming to the fore is the issue of mental health services. The question is: “How can our community increase the capacity of our behavioral health care system?” The reasons to do so are clear. Mental health and addictions are a public health priority. We know behavioral health prevention works. Mental illness and substance addiction is treatable. Very importantly, recovery is possible. Years of research and work in the field even tells us there are known effective individual, family and community based strategies that can make our little corner of the world a safer and more compassionate place for all who live here. The constant challenge is being able to fiscally sustain the programs and services. The harsh economics of the past few years has taken a severe toll, not only on mental health services, but many other significant community safety net services. However, the success of

behavioral health treatment and the value of prevention and early intervention have not been diminished over the years. We have the capability to provide effective treatment, what we lack is the capacity to do so. Perhaps of most value is the ability to provide behavioral health screening and assessments for individuals. Much like preventative cancer screening, many mental illnesses can be effectively iden-
tified through a basic mental health exam. Screening and early intervention for children, teens, adults, and older adults at schools, primary care offices, emergency rooms, and other health providers for mental health and for alcohol and other substance use concerns can identify early on, depression, anxiety, other mental illnesses and substance use before they See CARE, A12

Liquor store presents challenges to Bremerton man By CHRIS CHANCELLOR Senior Reporter
David Cho knows that the big boxes and grocery stores present a challenge to his small business model. But Cho, who owns the formerly state-owned Port Orchard Liquor & Wine on S.E. Lund Ave., thinks he can succeed. The 5,000-square foot store offers 1,400 different brands of spirits. In addition to popular domestic brands, Cho sells a variety of local beer, vodka and wine, and allows custom orders. He said that is in contrast with larger stores that only “will carry what sells.” “That’s the niche we’re trying to create,” said Cho, referring to carrying local products. The selection does not mean much if people are not coming into the store, though. That has been Cho’s biggest issue since opening July 3. The store was closed for six weeks while the state transferred the business to him. “A lot of people don’t even know we’re open,” he
said, adding that his sales are about 15 percent the $4 million the store generated as a monopoly. Another issue is the store’s size. While Cho has made some renovations, including the addition of a 14-door cooler to provide products ranging from energy drinks to growlers, he said the cost of operating the store is “unsustainable.” He said 3,000-square feet would be more ideal. And while Cho would like to be in a more visible location, he said that is not possible because when Initiative 1183, which led to the state giving up control of liquor sales after 78 years, was approved by voters in 2011, one stipulation was that new owners could not move too far from the store’s previous location. “It has been hard because it is not in the mall,” said Cho, who also purchased a state-owned liquor store in Tacoma when they were auctioned in March. Perhaps just as significant a challenge for Cho is price. While acknowledging that he cannot match competitors, such as Costco and Safeway, in that realm, Cho
Silverdale chamber presents business forum The Silverdale Chamber of Commerce is presenting a Kitsap Business Forum beginning Jan. 22 to provide free discussions on business solutions with established experts. The structure for the forum is simple. Experts will present briefly on a topic with easily implementable strategies and suggestions. The floor will then be opened to allow for open conversation. “We have assembled a great group of experts in every business aspect you can imagine: marketing and sales, operations, human resources, account-
ing, strategic development, and many more,” Kathleen Knuckey said, executive director for the chamber. “This will help anyone who owns or operates a business to grow and succeed.” • Topics currently scheduled for 2013: Jan 22 Experts Panel Feb 12 Business Built to Sell Mar 12 Marketing Strategy - Not Tactics Apr 9 Eliminate Panic and Stress May 14 Hire, Train, Discipline and Fire
said he tries to stay “competitive.” That is only part of the quandry when it comes to price, though. Cho used a bottle of Potters Vodka as an example. It retails for $15.99, but the customer pays $25.87. In addition to that tax assessed against the customer, Cho said he pays $1.20 to the distributor and $2.72 to the state liquor board in taxes and fees per bottle. That is in addition to licensing fees and other operating expenses. “Every sale we make is mostly taxes,” he said. Citing Washington Supreme Court’s January ruling in McCleary v. Washington, which ruled that the state failed to meet its constitutional duty to fully fund basic education, Cho does not expect relief from those taxes for himself or customers anytime soon. “That money has to come from somewhere,” he said. “We have to do what we can control.” Still, Cho, who traded stock futures for 15 years, said he remains excited about new enterprise. “I wanted to try something else,” he said. “My heart is in small business. I

going private. “We’re going to survive,” he said. A Bremerton resident, Cho said he eventually hopes to create strong South Kitsap ties if the
store can become profitable. “If we are successful, we can be more of a part of this community,” he said. “I want to be a neighborhood small business.”

exemplifies that work. Under his direction, the court undertook the “arduous task” of purchasing, modifying and overseeing implementation of a court calendaring program. He also developed processes to ensure guardians ad litem were complying with requirements of Title 11 and Title 26, including a program to fund custody investigations for indigent families. Maiocco mentors staff, works closely and efficiently with county officials on resources and budgeting for the court, and works on statewide justice issues in addition to his long days overseeing the court’s daily operations, Laurie wrote. Laurie also praised Maiocco’s work and presence during a difficult 2012 for the court in which Judge Theodore Spearman died unexpectedly after a short illness, while at the same time a long-time court scheduler retired and a new presiding judge was just beginning, all while the court had committed to helping cover work at Jefferson County Superior Court during a judge’s treatment for an extended illness. “His calming presence, his ability to work three jobs
Kitsap County Superior Court Administrator Frank Maiocco has been named 2012 Court Manager of the Year by the Court Management Council. Maiocco is noted for his hard work, calming presence and compassion during a “rocky time” for his court. He was surprised with the award at a December joint meeting of the Court Management Council and the Board for Judicial Administration. The award is presented to a manager or administrator who demonstrates leadership on a regional or statewide basis that is beyond what is expected of an individual court manager. Maiocco was nominated for the award by Kitsap County Superior Court Presiding Judge Anna Laurie, along with all members of the superior court bench. “There is not a single administrator in this state that does not daily perform miracles by maintaining the courts with dwindling resources,” Laurie wrote in the nominating letter, in which she said Maiocco

Commissioners appoint Civilla P U D C ommissioners John Armstrong and Lloyd Berg have appointed Jim Civilla of Port Orchard to fill a vacancy on the threeperson elected commission created by the resignation of long time commissioner Lee Caldwell. Civilla will serve during the remainder of the term of Position No. 2, which ends in January 2015. Election for the position is in November 2014, however, Civilla will have to stand for election in November of 2013 to finish the term. Jim Civilla, a CPA, has worked in the private sector for thirty-five years, and is part owner of Westbay Auto Parts. “With 170 employees and twelve stores throughout the Olympic Peninsula, I understand what it takes to run a business, including the budgets,” the new commissioner shared with his fellow policy makers. Civilla’s previous community involvement includes: president of the South Kitsap Rotary, South Kitsap School District Citizen’s Budget Committee, chairman of the South Kitsap Fire and Rescue Citizen’s Budget Committee and the agency’s Task Force evaluating fire district consolidation. He was chairman of the successful South Kitsap School Levy Campaign, and past member of the Kitsap
Regional Library advisory committee. Presently, Civilla serves as vice-chair and member of the Harrison Medical Center board of trustees. Present PUD commission president John Armstrong said that he and commissioner Berg believe,“Civilla is the best choice of all applicants due to his community involvement, his pledge to ask the tough questions, his commitment to wise use of our natural resources and public funds, and his keen interest in the PUD’s telecommunication network. We were also fortunate that we had so many great applicants to choose from. It is rewarding to know that well qualified and experienced individuals are prepared to participate in our community.” Kitsap PUD is a countywide public utility, regulated by a three person elected commission, and operated by a manager and local staff. The PUD presently operates water and telecommunications utilities. Washington state PUDs are authorized by statute to provide to their citizen/owners water, electric, sewer and telecommunications services within and outside of their county.
Angel appointed to new board Representative Jan Angel, R-Port Orchard, has been appointed as ranking Republican to the new Community Development, Housing and Tribal Affairs Committee in the state House of Representatives. The announcement
was made last week by House Republican Leader Rep. Richard DeBolt, R-Chehalis. The committee considers issues relating to community development, veterans, parks and recreation, tourism and government relationships between the state and Indian tribes. It also considers bills relating to accessibility and affordability of housing. Angel said the committee fits well with her experience as a Realtor, past chair and board member of the Kitsap County Consolidated Housing Authority, past president of the Port Orchard Chamber of Commerce and eight years of service as a Kitsap County commissioner. “I’m thrilled to be the House Republican leader on this new committee. Tourism is a vital part of the economy for the Kitsap Peninsula,” Angel said in a news release. “I will be looking for opportunities to promote tourism, job creation, and a better quality of life in our local communities and throughout the state. “I’m particularly interested that this is the primary committee in the House that will be addressing veterans’ issues. With the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard in Bremerton and Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor in our backyard, we have a large population of retired veterans and active military personnel throughout the 26th District. I plan to be a strong voice on this committee in support of our veterans and the men and women in uniform who serve our country.” The 26th District lawmaker also was named to the House Health Care and Wellness Committee, which considers legislation related
to health care, health insurance, pharmaceutical drugs and licensing of health care facilities. Angel will continue her role on the House Transportation Committee. “It’s vital for my district to have a watchdog on this committee that will protect our local transportation interests,” she said. “I’m very concerned that every time tolls are increased on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, traffic decreases. If this trend continues, we’ll not have the revenue to pay off the bridge. The financing on the Tacoma Narrows Bridge must be reviewed and we need to come up with some long-term solutions other than making tolls so unaffordable that no one will cross this span.”

His wet hair stood up in all directions. “Isn’t this great?” he said. “Just one more time down the big slide!” All at once, sitting in an unnaturally warm pool, I felt angry for the first time since Dec. 1. My life was supposed to get easier with Dustin home. Instead, he seemed to be having all the fun. When we were leaving the park, Dustin forgot something and had to go back inside. “I’ll meet you at the
car,” he said, so the boys and I went out the double doors and walked through the freezing rain and darkness. We went down a sidewalk and turned right in front of the hotel, where our car was parked. Review: we went straight and then turned right. Slush slid down the windshield and hot aired warmed my feet as we sat in the car waiting for Dustin, five minutes, 10 minutes. No Dustin. I drove around the parking lot to look for him. “I bet he went the wrong way,” I said aloud, my
annoyance growing. “But there’s only one way to go,” Ford said. PS: I’ve known Dustin a lot longer than Ford has. This is when the text message came: “I’m going down a hill. Now I’m going up a hill. I’m actually not sure where I am.” I called Dustin on the phone, and after a few confusing minutes (“You were supposed to turn right. Can you see the hotel? Are you outside? Are you in the parking lot?”), I figured out he was on the backside of the hotel, in the loading zone, walking in the oppo-
site direction of our car. “Maybe I took the long route,” he said. “Geez, it’s like having a fourth child,” I said under my breath. And just then, in front of me in the rain, I saw him. He was standing in the middle of the road, his sweatshirt soaked and drops of water running down his cheeks. He was laughing and smiling like a little boy. We were still on the phone. “Hey, it’s you,” he said. “Man, I’m glad to see you.” And, though I was annoyed, I sort of fell in love all over again.

become more deeply rooted. Such screening can and should become routine, and followed by discussions regarding possible interventions and treatment, just like any other illness. Many primary care physicians conduct a significant amount of the treatment for individuals with mild to moderate mental illnesses. Additional resources exist for individuals who meet the established “access to care” criteria. However, beyond that, our community is woefully limited on the availability of behavioral treatment services. We as a community, as well as a nation, must decide to move forward with real action to support and sustain effective and efficient treatment services for individuals with mental illness. Moving forward requires something more important than money; it requires leadership, vision and community. Together we must focus our energy and resources to bring about the necessary changes. We need to educate ourselves about mental illnesses and substance use disorders. There are nationally recognized training courses that help reduce stigma and thereby increase the chances that an individual or family will seek help. Mental Health First Aid is one, and more than 450 adults in Kitsap County are already trained in recognizing symptoms and how to respond. For law enforcement and first responders, there is a highly regarded crisis intervention training, which can enhance the skill set of those who place their lives on the line every day. Through education and awareness, we can better assist and refer our neighbors, Patty Cochrell, RN, senior vice president quality, operations, and chief nursing officer friends and family members at Harrison Medical Center, is a champion for the health of our Peninsula community. to behavioral health services when needed.

And because of that, women are able to relate to the horses without any pretense and begin to find themselves once again. It’s as simple as a single touch, she said. A young woman reaches out to touch one of Bergquist-Bowen’s mares. The woman brushes the horse along her nose. The horse rears back and moves away. “The touch was too much,” Bergquist-Bowen said. “So the young woman knew that and had to make adjustments. “She read the horse’s body language and she might have been thinking, 'That horse doesn’t like me? Why?’ But the reality is that the mare is just saying ‘I’m sensitive and emotional and I need you to take things more slowly.’ ” It’s that interaction with the horse that teaches the young woman about relationships. And BergquistBowen said the learning is easier with horses than humans because horses don’t hide their feelings or their sensitivity. “They just react,” she said. “Their exterior actions match their interior feelings. They don’t mask anything.” Horses depend on reading human body language, energy and intensions, much more than in human-to-human contact, she said. And if someone can learn to build relationships through contact with horses, they become more confident in their ability to build relationships with people. And just as with people, every horse has a different personality and has had different life experiences. “I have some horses that are more shy and it will take longer to build a relationship with them — just as with people,” she See HORSES, Page 3

Her first day on the job was Jan. 2. Burdick comes to KiDiMu with extensive background in nonprofit leadership and fundraising, spanning the arts, and health and human services sectors on local, regional and national levels. “We are very excited to welcome Susie on the KiDiMu team,” board president Sonya Marinoni said. “She brings the perfect blend of diverse
Susie Burdick ... new KiDiMu executive director experience and enthusiasm that will be invaluable to help KiDiMu continue to grow successfully, build partnerships and offer

She spent the last 15 years in health and human services, with 12 years as the chief executive officer at the Hearing, Speech and Deafness Center in Seattle, and the former three years in leadership roles at United Way of King County. She has also shared her skills and expertise with several nonprofit boards and committees, including the Alliance for Nonprofits,

Continued from page 2 said. “That’s where this work mirrors life.” Her love of horses and her need to change her own life led her to research horses and therapeutic work. She found the website for HEAL (Human-Equine Alliances for Learning) and applied to become an equine-facilitated learning practitioner. During that course of study she also became a board-certified life and business coach. Her passion is guiding women to reconnect with their dreams and goals by listening to their hearts, trusting their intuition, and creating meaning and purpose in their lives by living authentically. She does work with men and she also works with small groups of up to eight individuals. She travels throughout the country giving lectures on her work with horses and facilitating workshops and retreats on self-esteem and healing. Recently, she has begun to reach out to local licensed counselors and therapists to create individualized programs for those who are suffering with depression, post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and children and teens who are experiencing discrimination and bullying. In the case of a young person who has experienced bullying, BergquistBowen would begin by just letting the youngster be around the horses.
Northwest Development Officers Association, the Governor’s Committee on Disability Issues and Employment, and the National Association of Speech and Hearing Centers. She is a member of the Association of Fundraising Professionals and is a Rotarian. In 2010, she was recognized with the Professional Achievement Award by the Northwest Development Officers Association. A longtime islander, Burdick has close ties to the Bainbridge Island community. Prior to her nonprofit development and consulting work in Seattle,
she spent more than 20 years in theater directing, choreographing, and running arts organizations for adults, youth and children in the United States and Russia. She had spent 15 years as artistic director of Bainbridge Performing Arts, where she and the late Diane Gilman founded the island’s Russia Connection. “Joining the Kids Discovery Museum team is such an honor and I’m so excited about this wonderful organization,” Burdick said. “Working in the community in which I’ve lived for over 30 years, and with a focus on children, their education and

Drea Bergquist-Bowen and Annie in the older wooden barn. ‘Horses don’t care who you are,” Bergquist-Bowen said. ‘It’s the most pure form of friendship you can find.’ Courtesy Drea Bergquist-Bowen “Just being with them has a calming effect,” she said. “Eventually the teen would learn to groom the horse and a relationship would happen. There would be a healing and eventually the teen would feel comfortable to speak about what’s up in her life. “When they feel safe with an animal that is 1,000 pounds and much larger than they are, they will open up. They will learn about safe space and it will transcend into them being able to stand up for themselves when someone is invading their space.”
She recently saw it work with a young girl who faced bullying. “She came to the point where she told me she was
able to tell a boy at school not to talk to her like that anymore.” Regardless of the issue an individual has, Bergquist-Bowen knows that by establishing honest relationships with horses, the individual can learn to overcome it. But each person she works with is unique and the work can take anywhere from three months to a year. She works with her clients based on a sliding scale that can be adjusted to an individual’s need. Generally, her clients will meet with her for an hour to 90 minutes each week. Costs vary depending on whether the work includes

Quite frankly, KiDiMu ‘had me’ from the moment I saw ‘Talk like a Pirate Day’ on its website.” Burdick succeeds Susan Sivitz, museum executive director since 2009, who is studying at Harvard University.

Group prices are less expensive. “My goal is to help them make changes and making changes takes time,” she said. “It’s a process of getting the clients to learn to trust me and trust the horses.” A lot of the focus of Bergquist-Bowen’s work is to re-unite each person with their right brain. “It’s about our creativity,” she said. “We’ve lost touch with the right side of our brains. We spend so much time thinking, organizing, planning and doing, all part of our intellectual side. And there is a need for that. But we need to be who we are. We need

The program is designed for women, teens and for a parent-teen team working together with a horse. Participants are required to attend an initial safety meeting where she goes over the “How to be Safe Around Horses” hand out. There is no formal agenda, she said. Participants learn the basics about horses and their care, but the mission is to spend time up close with nature and horses. to know our soul — our creative right-brain side.” Bergquist-Bowen can be reached at drea.b.bowen@ gmail.com, or by phone at (360) 509-2948.

Top 10 Pacific Northwest wine stories of 2012 B
y most accounts, 2012 was a year of moving forward in the Pacific Northwest wine industry. After two difficult vintages, the weather cooperated in 2012 with what is expected to be a record-sized crop. New leaders entered the picture in Washington and Oregon, Gallo moved into Washington in a big way, and the wine industry continued to help drive the economy forward. Here are the top stories to come of the Pacific Northwest wine industry in 2012. 1. Near-perfect harvest across Pacific Northwest. After two years during which Mother Nature created all kinds of challenges with grape growers and winemakers across the Northwest with cool temperatures, 2012 turned

out to be nearly perfect. Throughout the growing season, weather cooperated with consistent temperatures, low moisture and few issues with pests or diseases. In Washington, started on time right after Labor Day — about two weeks earlier than in 2010 and 2011 — and was calm throughout. A warm September led to a dry October and a harvest that stretched to Halloween without incident. 2. Gallo buys Columbia Winery, Covey Run. In June, one of the world’s largest wine producers confirmed that it had purchased two of Washington’s oldest win-

Precept Wine, the Pacific Northwest’s second-largest wine producer, purchased Idaho’s largest and oldest winery. On May 14, the Seattle-based company announced it acquired Ste. Chapelle in Caldwell, Idaho, from Ascentia Wine Estates as the Healdsburg, Calif., company sold off all of its Northwest wine operations. Precept was launched in 2003 by Andrew Browne and the Baty family. Two years earlier, the Batyowned Corus Brands sold most of its wineries — including Ste. Chapelle — to Constellation Brands. 4. Washington gets out of state wine business. In 2011, residents voted to take Washington state out of the liquor business. So June 1, 2012, the state’s monopoly ended after 78 years opening the doors to privatization. Large wine retailers such as BevMo! and Total Wine & More moved in as I-1183 shuttered 166 stateoperated liquor stores. And while citizens enjoyed increased convenience — retail options grew from 328 to more than 1,400 stores — many were confused by the pricing. Some merchants chose not to display the taxes they are required to collect at the checkout stand. 5. Approval of two new Washington AVAs. Washington winemakers were given approval to use two new regions on their wine labels in 2012.
The Naches Heights American Viticultural Area was approved in mid-December 2011 and became official Jan. 13. The Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley AVA was approved in mid-October and became official Nov. 19. Naches Heights, near the city of Yakima, has by far the fewest grapes of any in Washington, with fewer than 100 acres planted. Ancient Lakes near the Columbia Basin towns of Quincy and George is well established with 1,500 acres of vineyards. It is a favorite location for growing Riesling and other white wine grapes. 6. New executive directors in Washington, Oregon. Steve Warner and Tom Danowski built impressive résumés outside of the wine industry, but both returned to their native Pacific Northwest to take over the marketing efforts on the behalf of winemakers and grape growers in Washington and Oregon. On Feb. 9, the Washington State Wine Commission announced Warner would replace Robin Pollard as its executive director. A month earlier, Danowski began his duties with Oregon Wine Board. 7. Wine Science Center moves forward at WSU Tri-Cities. Washington State University and the state wine industry made great strides toward building See WINES, Page 5

Blueberry and Preserved Lemon Syrup Waffles GLUTEN free N foodies othing beats a lazy morning hanging out with your family and friends drinking unlimited cups of hot coffee and enjoying Blueberry and Preserved Lemon Syrup Waffles — gluten free and dairy free! One of my absolute favorite things: Morris Kitchen Preserved Lemon Syrup. Morris Kitchen makes a variety of syrups that I absolutely love love love. Today, this was the perfect secret answer in place of sugar. I found the syrups via Kaufmann Mercantile, an online store that has it all. If you are one of those people with a strong desire for well-designed
products for yourself, your home or kitchen, then you must check them out. So, you want the recipe? Here we go ... (Oh, by the way, I made it dairy free and, trust me, you don’t miss it.) Wet Ingredients 2 large eggs 3 Tbs melted non-dairy, non-soy buttery spread (Earth Balance) melted & cooled. (If you can have dairy, by all means, go for it; add butter instead.) 1 tsp GF vanilla
the eggs, vanilla, maple syrup, lemon syrup. Slowly add the Trovato flour a large spoonful at a time. Mix well with a large silicone flat spoon. Add some of the coconut milk and then more of the flour, until both are completely added. Add the cinnamon, baking powder and sea salt and mix well.
Please note that there may be some lumps and that is OK. Let the batter sit and meld for 10 minutes while you heat up your waffle iron. I like to place my waffle iron on a heat-safe board. Add some of the Organic Coconut Spread to the bottom of the waffle iron and close it while it is
Administration added another $2.06 million in October, the center was well on its way, with more than $17 million raised. 8. King Estate cofounder dies. King Estate, one of Oregon’s most iconic wineries, lost its co-founder when Edward J. King Jr. died June 3 at the age of 90. King launched the renowned King Radio Corp., in his Kansas basement and grew it into an
aviation communications giant before selling it in 1985 for a reported $110 million. Six years later, he and his son, Ed King III, created King Estate outside of Eugene. King Jr. developed Oregon’s largest winery with an annual production of 250,000 cases. 9. Washington wine industry worth $8.6 billion. A study released in April showed the Washington wine industry
has grown to $8.6 billion per year in statewide economic impact, up $3 billion from a similar study from 2006. The study showed the state wine industry accounts for 27,000 jobs worth $1.2 billion in wages. In Benton County, the largest wine-producing county in the state, the wine industry is worth $1 billion to the economy and contributes nearly 5,200 jobs. Grant County is the
second-largest wine-producing county, according to the study. 10. Provincial boundaries slowly fall in Canada. On June 28, C-311 was signed into law in Canada. It allows wineries to ship beyond their own province to consumers throughout the country. Alas, most provinces continue to cling to the 1928 law.

aroundkitsap Bainbridge island Review Shultz leaves police department: Bainbridge Island Police Commander Sue Shultz packed up her office and cleaned out her desk Dec. 31. Assisted by city Finance Director Ellen Schroer, Shultz hauled off her personal items while shaking hands and saying goodbye to her fellow officers. Her last day on the job was Jan. 2. Shultz resigned in midDecember in the wake of an investigation that placed her on administrative leave. The investigation was sparked by allegations from two female police officers that Shultz discriminated against them because of their gender; they claimed they were treated more harshly than their male counterparts. The investigation did find that there was tension between Shultz and the two officers, but did not find any evidence of gender bias. — BainbridgeReview.com
Bremerton Patriot and Central Kitsap Reporter Home damaged from kitchen fire: A family returned home to find it on fire Dec. 31, at approximately 9:50 p.m. The home is located in the in the 4000 block of Silver Lane NW, Bremerton. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue personnel found fire in the kitchen extending into the attic. The fire was quickly extinguished. The homeowners, a husband, wife and their young son, had been out and when they returned home they saw the smoke before going inside. The wife and son went to a neighbor’s house and called 911. The husband entered the residence and found heavy smoke on the second floor. He could hear the smoke alarms going off so he grabbed the family dog and evacuated. The fire is not considered suspicious and the county
fire marshal was called to the scene to determine the cause. There were no injuries and the family will be staying with friends. — BremertonPatriot.com, CentralKitsapReporter.com
North Kitsap Herald Next school closure committee meeting Jan. 15 Text: Work being done to close a school in the North Kitsap School District has hit a bump in the road. Citing confusion and mistakes during voting at the Dec. 18 School Closure Committee meeting, the “narrowing of schools to look into for closure was unable to occur,” according to the school district’s website. The committee will resume work on its school closure recommendation Jan. 15, 6:30 p.m., at the district offices on 18360 Caldart Ave., Poulsbo. The meeting is open to the public. District administrators will gather information on the schools identified as possible closure options from the Dec. 4 meeting to help with the recommendation. The only school that made it on both committee work-

ing groups’ lists of possible closures Dec. 4 was Breidablik Elementary. Superintendent Patty Page said the only school immune from closure is Poulsbo Elementary. Voting was done Dec. 18 using an electronic voting system. There was confusion in the school ranking system, and some committee members voted more than they should have, Page said. The board’s goal is to close a school starting in the 201314 school year. — NorthKitsapHerald.com
Port Orchard Independent Youth music fills the air in Port Orchard: Moments before the show started, as around 70 children stood back stage, Amy DeAngelo Hines looked at all of her students. “I love you,” Hines said. The response filled the room, spilling out into the venue where parents, friends and locals waited. “We love you, too,” yelled back all 70 children. “The Most Famous Kids in Town” program took to the stage Dec. 21 at the Port Orchard Pavilion. The program is entering its second year, teaching
Wes Morrow / Port Orchard Independent
children all aspects of performing — from singing to dancing and the occasional acting. Hines started the program in Port Orchard last year after she got sick and had to stop touring. The program has three different age groups: minis, juniors and teens. Juniors and teens are divided into three levels themselves, starting with Shooting Stars, then Glee Stars and Glee Superstars. The point of the program is to show children what they’re capable of and help them grow the tools they need to succeed. According to Hines, it doesn’t matter whether a
student is in Shooting Stars or Glee Superstars, it’s all about developing their individual voices and talents. “All our superstars came from there, so it works,” Hines said. “The Most Famous Kids in Town” have performed at venues like the Kitsap County Fair, Whaling Days and the Port Orchard Parade. Their winter performance Dec. 21 was an extensive production, with more than 90 hours going into costuming alone. The show combined Christmas music and scenery with faith-themed classic rock. — PortOrchardIndependent.com
