Four years into economic recovery, many people are still cautious in their optimism for the future. What kind of year will 2013 be? The Herald asked these experts to look into their crystal balls and tell us what we can expect this year.

n these unpredictable times, anticipating what’s ahead can be a daunting task. Fishline’s priorities are inextricably tied to local economic conditions, and where they will go is anyone’s guess. But it will be encouraging to note that Fishline’s increase in demand in 2012 was around 10 percent, compared to the 20 percent growth it’s seen each of the previous five years.

Carolyn said contributing a box of food makes her realize how fortunate she is. “You want to do so much,” she said.

POULSBO — Mayor Becky Erickson is committed to bringing a school resource officer back to Poulsbo schools. Shortly after the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. Dec. 14, where 20 children and six staff members were killed, Erickson sent an email to several local leaders asking to reinforce the protection of students by reinstating a police officer at Poulsbo schools. She wrote she intended to bring the topic up for discussion at a City Council meeting. “This is how … the best See OFFICER, Page A12

Poulsbo Lions/Raab Signs of recovery in local economy Foundation Bellringer Fund total: $28,846 L By ELIZABETH COURT

Employment Security Department

POULSBO — Two late donations bumped the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund to $28,846. The final contributions in the 2012-13 campaign: n Karl and Kelly Hadley, $1,000. n The Delaney Family, $100. n Laurie and Craig Wilkey, $100. n Fairwind Properties, $100. This campaign’s total is less than the $33,061 donated in 2011-12, but more than the $25,590 donated in 2010-11. And it will make a difference in a lot of local lives. Dennis Tesch, treasurer of the Bellringer Fund, was impressed by how North Kitsap residents stepped up to help their neighbors. He noted that as Bellringer was accepting donations, residents also raised approximately $100,000 for Ian’s Fund, to help defray the costs of young Ian Gunnell’s leukemia treatments.

Money raised by the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund will be used to help local residents with medical co-pays, gas vouchers, emergency housing, eviction prevention and utility assistance. Grants are administered by North Kitsap Fishline, ShareNet and St. Vincent de Paul. North Kitsap’s Bellringer Fund is different than the Bellringer Fund administered by the Kitsap Sun; the Lions/ Raab Bellringer Fund serves only North Kitsap. It was founded in the 1940s by Frank and Mabel Raab as a way for neighbors to help each other during emergencies. The fund helps at least 300 families a year. In addition, the fund supplies Christmas food baskets to 100 local families. Donations are accepted year-round for the fund — P.O. Box 1244, Poulsbo 98370. Donations are taxdeductible.

ooking back over the months of 2012, Kitsap County noted some significant economic news relating to the labor market and employment. A quick look back reveals a recovering economy, appearing to benefit from a generally decreasing unemployment rate and some improvements in consumer expenditure levels. Kitsap County is one of the smaller counties in Washington, geographically, with a land area of about 395 square miles. And while the rural areas of the county give it a bucolic feel, it actually ranks third in the state for population density — that is, the number of people per square mile. Employment and Jobs Kitsap County noted job growth from an estimated 81,300 jobs in January 2012 to 82,700 positions in November 2012. December county labor market numbers should be available on Jan 26. This

Kitsap residents have commuted out of the county for employment. For the decade starting in 2000, close to 25 percent of the workforce residing in the county travelled to King, Snohomish, Pierce or other counties for work. The 2010 U.S. Census data estimated that close to 60 percent of individuals had a commute of less than 10 miles and approximately 27 percent of workers had commutes between 10 and 50 miles. Data for this article are from the Employment Security Department, Bureau of Labor Statistics and the U.S. Census and may be subject to revision. — Elizabeth Court is a regional economist for the state Employment Security Department. https:// fortress.wa.gov/esd/employmentdata/

IN OUR OPINION

You can make a difference all year long T

he giving this winter has been incredible. n $30,000 for the Poulsbo Noon Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund, to meet the emergency housing and utility needs of Poulsbo-area residents in financial crisis. n $60,000 for ShareNet’s NeighborAid, to meet the food needs of Kingston-area residents. n $87,000 in labor and donations to build Coffee Oasis Poulsbo, to provide employment training and support for homeless and at-risk youth in North Kitsap. n $100,000 for Ian’s Fund, to help pay some of the costs of young Ian Gunnell’s leukemia treatment. Churches fed people who needed a meal, warmth and the companionship of others. Food banks helped people keep food on their tables, clothing in their closets and roofs over the heads. In each case, people gave what they could. Don’t doubt that each contribution, no matter the size, counted. Collectively, this community made a real difference in the lives of hundreds, perhaps, thousands of people in North Kitsap. While the sense of urgency grows as the holidays near and the weather turns inclement, need exists year-round. Life happens. The best we can hope for is that someone gets back on their feet and pays it forward. The North Kitsap Herald will soon unveil a regular feature which will show you how you can make a difference in the community year-round. Whether it’s an hour of your time or an extra couple of dollars, you can help ensure that no North Kitsap resident goes without basic necessities. Watch for our special feature and see how you can be a part of the safety net. Collectively, we can continue to build a stronger community.

Letters Celebrate MLK and celebrate human life Rev. Martin Luther King’s life, bravery, and accomplishments are worthy of our nation’s reverence. Unfortunately, these national celebrations are all too often a safe look-back to past struggles and a blinkered view of present human rights injustices. Equally depressing is the reality that for some politicians these memorial events are merely opportunities to dust off old speeches and promote books. Yes, champion Dr. King’s struggles against a legacy of justice denied, but put aside the elevation of an ossified past to the detriment of current human rights violations. In the years since Dr. King’s murder in 1968, our nation has suffered the loss of 52 million aborted babies — black, white, minority, rich and poor — each of which given five years would have been kindergarten students like the murdered 20 in the Newtown, Conn. massacre. Would MLK have averted his eyes from the 52 million and taken refuge in silence and past glories? He would not. This year, I challenge our Kitsap legislators — Sen. Rolfes, Reps. Appleton and Hansen — to join me at the Jan. 22 March for Life event on the steps of the state Capitol Building. Legislators, forgo your warm marble chambers and oratorical glory to stand with the people in the cold witnessing for human life. Rev. King would eschew the insider’s sanctuary and man the ramparts for life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness for all generations. MLK would challenge our current culture of death for all people. Join us Jan. 22 and honor Dr. King’s legacy. James M. Olsen Bainbridge Island

A storm of pork in Hurricane Sandy bill House Speaker John Boehner

Accuracy and fairness are fundamental to good journalism. If you believe we have erred, call Editor Richard Walker at (360) 779-4464, or send an e-mail to rwalker@northkitsapherald. com

has been getting a lot of criticism for not allowing a vote on the $60 billion “Hurricane Sandy Relief Bill.” The media is asking why Mr. Boehner could be so “cold hearted,” but have you seen the bill? According to the Wall Street Journal: n Only $30 billion of the $60 billion bill goes to Hurricane Sandy relief. n $17 billion goes to “community development.” Really? Community development of what and where? n $2 million goes to repair a roof at the Smithsonian, which has nothing to do with Hurricane Sandy. n $150 million goes to “Alaska Fisheries.” Are you kidding me?! How much “pork” can taxpayers tolerate? Please contact your U.S. representative and senator and ask them to take all the useless “pork” out of the Hurricane Sandy Bill. Lee Metcalf Poulsbo

Children deserve a culture of love, support The heartache of losing so many children to an act of evil at Sandy Hook Elementary School appears to have left us all searching for why and how to make sure it never happens again.

Bible. Job’s three friends all came to the aid of Job’s suffering, but instead of silence they all brought their views of why this happened to him, but forgot the reason they came in the first place. The reason was to support a friend who was suffering. Our president perhaps showed us the best leadership of his administration in urging us to “Love one another.” In the Old and New Testament scriptures, the constant direction is to love our children. Before people who love God can have those conversations about stopping these crimes against children, in regards to gun control and mental health, perhaps we should be constantly looking to ways to help those youth who are marginalized, those who get lost through the cracks in the culture of today. All our youth in this world of today deserve a culture that supports and loves them, and to know about a God that does also. Our first priority from people of faith is how to show the love of God to a new generation that seems to have everything at their fingertips, except that love. Mick Sheldon Kingston

Continued from page A4 “Horses healing hearts” (page 2, Jan. 4 Kitsap Week). You emphasized how the unique personality and companionship of each horse enabled the less confident to gain strength in their lives. As we know, this country was built on the backs of horses. Millions died in world wars and horses continue to provide many benefits to mankind. It is a sorry fact of life that many humans do not show gratitude for the service and unconditional love we receive from horses. It is easy to look the other way when horses are sent to slaughter when they grow old, sick or are no longer useful. Two horse “processing plants” recently operated in Illinois and Texas. In November 2011, a ban on horse slaughter for meat was lifted as part of the Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act of Fiscal Year 2012. A horse slaughterhouse is now being considered in Missouri. When one is not nearby, horses can legally be transported to Mexico or Canada. Horses are frequently sent away in ill-designed, double-decker trucks meant for cattle that squeeze horse necks into contorted positions that horses frightfully endure over long distances — never mind the terror these intelligent animals experience in the slaughter lines. It is greed for profit from the horse meat market

for overseas consumers that supports the killing of horses. Humane Lobby Day takes place in Olympia on Jan. 28. This is but one opportunity to voice your opposition to your legislators. Disrespectful killing of horses continues only because an insufficient number of people do not express their opposition to the practice. Make your love of horses be heard. Tell your congressional representatives that you do not want horses sent to slaughter — anytime, anywhere. Thank you. Linda Troup Poulsbo

Residents made holidays bright This year, our annual toy shop was held at First Lutheran Church Community Center for the fourth year in a row. The toy shop ran three days, Dec. 12-14, with the help of more than a dozen church members serving as personal shoppers. Toys were provided to approximately 416 children. We received a donation of gift cards that we were able to give to some of the older teens and to new families

who would not otherwise be able to give their children Christmas gifts. Several area businesses and private citizens donated toys and/or cash to the effort. The total value of new toys, gift cards and monetary donations totaled nearly $27,055! We at Fishline thank all the private citizens that stepped up to help during this financially difficult time to make Christmas wonderful for our neighbors in need. We extend our gratitude to the following area businesses, churches and organizations: Blue Heron Jewelry, Breidablik Elementary, Chamber of Commerce, City Hall, Coast Do It Best Hardware, Curves, North Kitsap Herald, 1st Security Bank, Farmer’s Insurance, First Lutheran Church, Hostmark Apartments, Jak’s Cafe & Espresso, Liberty Bay Books, Mike’s Car Wash & Detail, PETCO, Peninsula Credit Union, Poulsbo Athletic Club, Poulsbo Elementary, Poulsbo Fire Station, Poulsbo Middle School, Poulsbo Parks and Recreation, Poulsbo Yacht Club, Sound Reprographics,

Expect new construction, incentives for Viking Ave. By REBECCA ERICKSON City of Poulsbo

would like to wish everyone a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year. What lies ahead for us in the coming year? How is the City of Poulsbo moving forward with our ever-changing economic challenges? The City of Poulsbo is doing very well. We have risen to the challenges that have been presented to us, and are now in a much better place than we were three years ago. Three years ago, we had just begun construction of our new City Hall, facing a $900,000-per-year mortgage. Sales tax revenues

A new gas station at the intersection of Viking Avenue and Highway 305 is also scheduled for this spring. The amphitheater in Fish Park will be finished and we will begin construction on new walking trails at Storhoff Road and Caldart and 7th avenues. Let’s get the pruning done in Net Shed Park so that it returns to Net Shed Vista Park. We will continue to mar-

New zoning codes will be completed that encourage the retention of trees during construction and update our sign code. The signs that clutter our community are coming to an end. Viking Avenue will receive new treatment in our zoning code amendments with developer incentives to spur the revitalization of West Poulsbo. Let’s bring the salmon back to Dogfish Creek with stream restoration in Poulsbo Village.

On a regional level, I will be working for safe walking pathways for our children to walk to school, intersection improvements at Suquamish Way and Highway 305, and a new home for Fishline. We are a fun-loving community. I hope we all watch for the blooming daffodils this spring. We planted 3,750 daffodil bulbs in November. Now the real question is, where will the flowers pop up? And who is going to knit a great, huge green scarf for the Norseman for St. Patrick’s Day? — Rebecca (Becky) Erickson is mayor of Poulsbo. Contact her at berickson@cityofpoulsbo.com.

cost housing for at least six months. If the homeless resident is a single male with even a minor criminal background, shelters are not available and low-cost housing options will be limited. Food is getting more expensive. Predictions for 2013 are for a 3-5 percent increase in food costs, added to a 3 percent increase in 2012. Prices for staples like meat, dairy and produce are expected to rise the most. This

means more clients will come to Fishline to extend their food budget, and donations could decrease because of food expense. We expect our food budget to increase by 20 percent this year, but that might be conservative. We are also noticing encouraging trends, the kind often borne from adversity: Getting back to basics, more people are helping each other through bartering, sharing living spaces

and seeking other ways to live more simply. There’s the web of helping agencies, more cooperative and integrated every year, soundly investing donor dollars with less duplication and more direct impact. And there are the concerned citizens who, at cocktail parties and on blogs, are bringing up these lingering issues in the hope of unearthing solutions. Alan Kay, a computer

scientist, famously said, “The best way to predict the future is to invent it.” With determination and ingenuity, we can invent an environment where neighbors in trouble are stabilized in ways that endure, creating a community that is safer and promising for all futures. — Mary Nader is executive director of North Kitsap Fishline.

and will likely remain so in 2013. Homeless residents have few alternatives. There is not enough low-cost and emergency housing, and homelessness will persist if this doesn’t change. The homeless family, lucky if they can find shelter space available, will have to travel to Bremerton, and their family will probably need to split up. At the most, they can stay in a shelter for 90 days, but they’ll be on a waiting list for low-

Distressed properties will compete with home resales By BRENDA PROWSE

o forecast for the new year can be complete without some discussion of the real estate market. Nationwide, the market is in much better shape entering 2013 than it has been in the past four or five years. The National Association of Realtors November pending sales index was reported to be up 9.8 percent from November 2011. According to the NAR, new home sales in November were up 15 percent from a year ago (still the third-lowest number of sales since 1963) and some

That means that homeowners planning to sell must prepare for competition. Only the best priced homes in the best condition will sell. RealtyTrac shows that the number of homeowners in Kitsap County in default or foreclosure has risen by 33 percent since August 2012, so distressed property sales will continue to compete with residential resales in the coming year.

More rooms, parking planned at Clearwater Casino SUQUAMISH — Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort is preparing for a major expansion. The casino released on Thursday its five-year plan, which includes convention space, hotel rooms and more amenities in four phases. The project is

scheduled to begin in June. The first phase of the plan includes the addition of 10,000 square feet of meeting space and a 4,500-square-foot pre-function area. Also planned: A new restaurant, remodeling of the Longhouse Buffet, a two-story building for sup-

port services and offices, a walkway with elevator entrance to the casino from the resort, and 700-car parking garage. The first phase is expected to be completed by December 2014. By May 2015, the plan calls for the addition of a 100-room, five-story hotel.

All rooms will have a water view. The building will be structured to add an additional three stories in the future. A remodeling and expansion of the casino is planned to be complete by the end of 2016. It is a 5,700-squarefoot expansion, which

Buyers not willing to wait for the delays in a short sale or not willing to take on the risk of purchasing a bank-owned property are in many cases opting to purchase wellpriced new construction. Home sellers, take note. A final note. There are big differences between local markets in our county, and winners and losers appear to reflect the underlying employment opportunities. Bremerton sales last year were low, prices oscillated, and inventory rose. Bainbridge sales in

2012 were the strongest since 2007, prices have risen and inventory is very low. Employment opportunities in Seattle appear to be driving Bainbridge and helping the Poulsbo and North Kitsap markets as well.

The last phase, to be complete by December 2017, will add 15,000 square feet of meeting and entertainment space, with moveable walls that divide space into five rooms. A 11,500 squarefoot of pre-function and 8,500 square feet of support

space will be added. All facilities are planned to remain open during construction, unless otherwise publicized. Rice Fergus Miller will lead the remodel. The contractor and project manager have not been disclosed. The casino’s last remodel included the addition of the resort and spa in 2006.

Vikes rally back for win over Oly P

OULSBO — What started as a clunky first half of basketball Jan. 8 for the North Kitsap Vikings transformed into a solid win over the Olympic Trojans. Suffering from turnovers before halftime, the Vikings were down 18-16 on their home court. “We turn the ball over too much,” Vikings head coach Tim French said. “You work so hard on defense, and then to just give it back, it’s selfdefeating.” But the Vikings came back in full force in the second half, rallying to score 23 points in the third and 15 points in the fourth. The Vikes won 54-39. Rebekah Baugh and Molly Lemmon led the way with 16 and 18 points respectively. Molly, a freshman, has worked tirelessly on defense and is making big strides on offense, French said. Molly’s ability to finish at the basket, making shots, is improving, he said.

“

As a team, the Vikings used their athleticism to wear their opponent out by running the court. That was successful to a certain degree, French said. The win over the Trojans improves the Vikes’ league record to 4-3 and ties them with the Kingston Buccaneers, after their 45-34 lose to

the Klahowya Eagles Tuesday. The Trojans, third in the league, are 5-3. Port Angeles (8-0) remains first in the league. The Vikings are on the road against Klahowya Jan. 16. Junior Varsity plays at 5:15 p.m., Varsity at 7 p.m.

I have worked in North Kitsap now for 7 years, enjoyed living in Kitsap County for 12 and along the way I have built many friendships with business owners through attending their events. So it was only natural that I would end up helping them market their business here at the North Kitsap Herald. I love all of the options that I, and the North Kitsap Herald, has to offer business owners to help their business grow. Nothing pleases me more than to hear a client say that they received calls or business from their ad campaign.

POULSBO — Gregory St. Peter wants to pick up right where Chris May left off with the North Kitsap Vikings boys varsity team. St. Peter was hired as the head coach Thursday night during the North Kitsap School Board’s regular meeting. St. Peter transitions from assistant coach to head coach, following May’s resignation. Two days of tryouts for the boys’ spring soccer season begins Feb. 25. St. Peter, a graduate of North Kitsap High School, has coached the team for nine years. He also coaches a U-12 girls soccer team with the North Kitsap Soccer Club for about two years. The newest head coach is also a veteran on the field, having played with the Vikings in high school and later playing with FC Kitsap Premier Soccer Club — now WestSound FC. St. Peter played soccer since the age of 6, he said. St. Peter would like to see the 2013 team make a State appearance, and get past that first round, he said. See St.Peter, Page A9

North Kitsap baseball team disposing of Christmas trees POULSBO — The North Kitsap High School baseball team is helping to give back to its community. The team will be at Central Market from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Saturday and

Sunday, to help dispose of Christmas trees as part of the annual “Christmas Tree Sweep.” Anyone with a tree can bring it to the Central Market parking lot over the

weekend, and have it disposed of, free of charge. The disposal is part of a larger community service, where the team hauls Christmas trees away from local neighborhoods.

Trees will be disposed of in an environmentallyfriendly way. Donations to the baseball team will be accepted. Money donated helps provide the baseball team

with new equipment and uniforms. For any questions, contact North Kitsap head coach Jeff Weible, 9816872.

“We did a good job,” Conley said. The Bucs next travel to Port Townsend Jan. 11. The Bucs defeated Port Townsend 69-35 Dec. 4. Though victory is never certain, Conley said if the Bucs play their game, they will be in good shape against Port Townsend. — Kipp Robertson

the Klahowya Eagles was a rough one for the Buccaneers varsity team Jan. 8. “Hands down, worst game we’ve played all year,” Bucs head coach Matt Smith said. The Eagles won 45-34 at home. It is the Eagles’ first league win of the season after a seven-game losing streak. The Bucs are now 3-4 in league. The Bucs had a 17 percent shot percentage and made six of their 22 free throws. Defensively, the

Bucs couldn’t stop anyone, Smith said. Smith said it was a “perfect storm” of missed shots and poor defense. Savannah Turrieta led the Bucs with 10 points. The Bucs face Port Townsend Jan. 11 at home. Port Townsend is looking for a rematch against the Bucs, after losing 47-45 Dec. 4. Smith said Port Townsend has two solid post players and a guard. Port Townsend turns the ball over well, he said. The Bucs will need to focus on rebounds and pressuring the ball up front. — Kipp Robertson

Conley said We-Laka Chiquiti did a nice job of creating energy for the Bucs, after coming off the bench and earning two steals in a row.

BREMERTON — The Olympic High School Trojans varsity team kept its undefeated Olympic League record with its win over the North Kitsap Vikings Tuesday. The 63-35 win for the Trojans means an 8-0 league record and a hold on first place. With the loss, the Vikings are now tied in league play with the Kingston Buccaneers (4-3). The Bucs defeated Klahowya Tuesday, 64-46. The two teams are tied for fourth. — Kipp Robertson

St. Peter

Continued from page A8 The 2012 team fell short of a State berth in the West Central District III tournament. The Vikings lost to White River 4-3 in a playoff home game at North Kitsap Stadium. St. Peter said postseason play becomes a mental game. There is a lot to distract high school seniors from the team’s goal. It comes down to preparation and understanding what it means to the team, he said. But postseason is a season away. St. Peter expects 40 or more people to try out for the team. Though many varsity players graduated after the 2012 season, St. Peter said there is a good amount of returning underclassmen who will be solid players. Though he’s laid back and likes to have fun, St. Peter also wants to keep things serious on the field. Players, he said, improve more when they enjoy what they’re doing. “I’m looking forward to it,” St. Peter said of coaching in the spring.

Crime Briefs Poulsbo woman allegedly hits Bremerton officer BREMERTON — Amber M. Hardee, 33, of Poulsbo is charged with third-degree assault after allegedly hitting a police officer on the nose with a soda bottle. A caller to 9-1-1 on Jan. 5 reported that a woman was “freezing and looking for shelter.” A Bremerton police officer went to the location on Kitsap Way and saw Hardee sitting on the ground with a plastic 20-ounce bottle of CocaCola. When Hardee saw the officer she said, “Take me to jail,” according to the report. The officer said he had nothing to take her to jail for, and Hardee became angry. She told the officer, “What if I assault you?” Then she allegedly hit the officer on the nose with the bottle, turned around and put her hands behind her back, according to the report. For safety and to prevent escape, according to the officer, Hardee was handcuffs and put in the patrol car. She was booked into Kitsap County Jail on $10,000 bail. — Megan Stephenson

Dropped gun discharges in Silverdale store SILVERDALE — A 58-year-old Poulsbo man with a concealed weapon permit accidentally dropped his pistol which discharged in Cost Plus World Market about 1:53 p.m. Jan. 5, the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Department reported. According to the report, a witness “heard a bang … looked towards the middle of the store, to see a male approximately 20 feet from him picking up a two-shot Derringer type gun. The male stated the pop was a balloon and proceeded to put the gun in his pocket.”

The 58-year-old man later told sheriff’s deputies he had the gun, a .38-caliber, two-shot Derringer pistol with no trigger guard, and holster in his waistband and “decided to put it in his coat pocket while in the mall … He bent over to pick up something and the gun fell out of his pocket and discharged.” The bullet traveled about 15 feet, according to sheriff’s spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. The bullet hit the feet of a display daybed and came to rest inside a basket. There were about 35 customers and staff members inside the store at the time. A supervisor at the store said the store would seek reimbursement for damage to the items, according to the report. The man was located in Barnes and Noble Bookstore. He was not arrested, but the report has been forwarded to the prosecutor’s office, which could choose to charge the man with reckless endangerment. — Megan Stephenson

Kingston man accidentally shoots his hand KINGSTON — A 22-yearold Kingston man was treated for an accidental gunshot wound to his left hand and sent to Harborview Medical Center Jan. 5. Kitsap County sheriff’s deputies were called to an accidental gunshot wound on Pennsylvania Avenue at 7:57 p.m. According to the report, the man was lying on the floor of his kitchen with his legs elevated. He told deputies he had dropped the gun earlier and “it wasn’t acting right.” He was inspecting the gun when “the hammer released” while he was cleaning it, according to the report. The bullet, full of “small pellets like a shotgun birdSee briefs, Page A12

Officer

Continued from page A1 intentions get out ahead of us,” Erickson said at Wednesday’s council meeting. “After what has occurred [in Newtown], it is apparent it is a very, very good idea to replace that officer.” The schools last had a school resource officer, or SRO, in 2010; the program was not renewed because of budget cuts. Erickson asked the council on Wednesday to think about finding funds to pay for an SRO, and

said she would ask County Commissioner Rob Gelder and North Kitsap School District Superintendent Patty Page to partner with the city to fund the position. An SRO is estimated to initially cost around $150,000 — a $63,000 salary, benefits, and $49,000 for a patrol car. Deputy Chief Bob Wright provided several goals for the SRO’s position: provide security for school and special school events, investigate crimes in and around schools, counsel students as needed, participate in school/parent meetings, assist law enforce-

ment agencies with crimes involving students, liaison between students and social agencies, and participate in campus activities, student organizations and athletic events. Most important to many on the council, the officer would “provide a positive image and positive role model for students.” Wright said the officer is an avenue to give youth, teachers and administration the help they may need, and “shows youth police officers are approachable.” “It’s preventable medicine, so to speak,” Councilman David

Musgrove said. Within the city limits, Poulsbo has 2,859 students, plus Gateway Christian School’s 100 students. Erickson said an SRO is a way to hire another officer that Poulsbo needs regardless. She has been advocating for hiring two more officers for the last few years. Earlier this year, an interview panel narrowed down a few candidates, some with SWAT experience, to be hired when funds become available. Wright said Poulsbo is understaffed given the size of the city: Poulsbo has 1.6 officers per one inhabitant, but the FBI states a city of Poulsbo’s size should have 3.5 officers per inhabitant. The school district also entered into an agreement with the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office for schools outside of Poulsbo. Page said it is an annual agreement that essentially provides coverage at events, such as sporting events. It was signed before the events at Newtown. North Kitsap School Board member Bill Webb would like to see more security in schools. On Thursday, there was yet another school shooting in Kern County, Calif., Webb said as an example. However, adding one or two officers to the school district would not do a whole lot more in the way

of protection, he said. “I’m all for it,” Webb said. “I don’t know how the heck we’re going to pay for it …” The district cut more than $2 million from the 2012-13 budget. The district cut one campus security officer position this year, which saved the district $25,000, according to Jenn Markaryan, school district spokeswoman. Adding someone from law enforcement, at this point, would mean cuts elsewhere. And, to be fair, if the district added an officer in Poulsbo, Webb said it would need to add one in Kingston. “We’re closing a school because we’re so broke,” he said. Though he doesn’t see a tremendous gain in security — one officer between five Poulsbo schools would not dramatically increase response time — Webb does see a benefit from the educational standpoint. Students could learn that law enforcement are approachable, he said. In the end, if hiring a recourse officer means cutting a teaching position, Webb is against it. “If it means laying off a teacher, I’m not for it,” he said. Though there are no officers or sheriff deputies assigned to schools, there are employees, hired by the

district, dedicated to security. There are two campus security officers at NKHS, and at least one at Kingston High School. Both middle schools have a security staff member, she said. Both high schools formerly had resource officers — a police officer at NKHS and a sheriff’s deputy at Kingston High School. Because the officers were taken away from other duties to patrol the schools, the program was partially funded by the school district. They also patrolled other schools in the district when needed. The officers acted as liaisons between the district and the police department or sheriff’s office, and handled crimes committed on campus, calls to child protective services and other public safety matters. Officials say the officers’ presence acted as deterrents to crime in and around the schools. The decision to remove the last officer came as the school board was balancing the 2010-11 budget, with a $700,000 gap. Schools in the district regularly practice security drills. On top of that, Webb said the schools are being mapped, so law enforcement will know exactly where to go within a school in case of an emergency.

Briefs

Rosenberg was detained by authorities earlier in summer after an undercover sting found he had been buying black tar heroin four to five times a week in Tacoma and bringing it up to Kingston to sell. Officers from the West Sound Narcotics Enforcement Team with the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office tracked down Rosenberg on Bainbridge Island after surveilling him and setting up an undercover purchase in July. Rosenberg reportedly told officers he was addicted to heroin, was unemployed and was selling the drug to support his habit. He said he has sold it for about a year, operating from his girlfriend’s home on Meadow Circle. After inter viewing Rosenberg, detectives learned that he would travel to Tacoma up to five times a week to buy heroin, usually at around $350 per ounce. He would buy up to 2 ounces at a time. — Richard D. Oxley, Bainbridge Island Review

Man charged with selling heroin in Kingston home KINGSTON — A Bainbridge Island man has been charged with selling heroin after Kitsap County detectives tracked him to the island from a Kingston home where his alleged drug-dealing operation was based. Joshua I. Rosenberg, 26, was charged in early November in a Kitsap County District Court with delivery of heroin.

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND — A Kingston woman is accused of embezzling thousands of dollars while working as a bookkeeper for a Bainbridge Island apartment complex. Karen Schwarz, 53, was charged in Kitsap County Superior Court last week for first-degree theft after it was discovered she allegedly diverted money from the Camellia Loop Apartments and into a secret bank account she had set up. The Bainbridge Island Police Department was contacted in July by the owner of the apartments, who claimed Schwarz, his bookkeeper, had embezzled several thousand dollars. The property owner discovered the theft when a late notice was sent to a tenant about a rent payment. The tenant, however, provided a copy of the check that had been paid and cashed.

Projects free money for Anderson Parkway lighting By MEGAN STEPHENSON

mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com

POULSBO — The Anderson Parkway remodel project will include enhanced lighting, thanks to some cost-saving measures. The City Council accepted on Wednesday Seton Construction’s bid of

$529,037 for the parkway remodel, which includes the council’s “alternative B” lighting plan. Engineering staff will meet with the contractor to come up with a construction timeline, which will be presented to the council later this month. Construction is expected to start in February.

The project’s funds come from a $270,000 Department of Ecology grant for stormwater improvements, $125,000 from the city’s stormwater fund and $175,000 from the city’s road fund. Alternative B lighting plan was expected to cost $40,228 over the project’s budget, but

Lawsuit

Continued from page A1 Paulson Road in Poulsbo, Silverdale Chamber of Commerce and Kitsap Mall. The suit, filed Dec. 19, names the farm as responsible for designing, managing and maintaining the course, and the chamber and Kitsap Mall as sponsors, organizers, promoters and/or supervisors of the run. The Extreme K Mud Run was held Oct. 6 at Royal Farms. The three women each “suffered [severe] displaced left ankle and foot fractures” that required surgery. They claim they suffered physical and mental pain, disability, discomfort and anguish, loss of earnings and impairment of future earning capacity that will continue for an indefinite period of time. The suit claims one of the obstacles, a “vertical chute/slide” with a rocky mud puddle at the bottom — called “Gravity’s Revenge” — was dangerous. The obstacle consisted of a ravine covered in heavy black plastic that was kept wetted down by the run’s staff. “Participants were hastily instructed to ‘slide’ down the obstacle toward the bottom of the ravine. No other instructions or warnings were given,” the suit states. “As plaintiffs impacted the rocks at the bottom of the slide at a high rate of speed, they each sustained the severe injuries …” The suit also states paramedics were called to bring up “numerous injured participants” from the bottom of the slide. “After repeated calls from medical [personnel] to close the hazardous obstacle, defendants agreed,” the suit states. Davis, Brant and Szewezyk are seeking monetary damages to compensate them for their injuries. Email and phone messages left for Kathleen

Poulsbo police Sgt. Wendy Davis’ X-rays after her ankle surgery. Davis fractured her ankle and foot from a ‘dangerous’ obstacle during the Extreme K Mud Run Oct. 6. James McCormick / Contributed Knuckey, executive director of the Silverdale Chamber of Commerce, was not returned by Thursday. Participants of the run signed a waiver, being warned of and assuming risks involved in the course. However, Davis’ attorney, James McCormick of the Tacoma-based law firm Messina Bulzomi Christensen, said the waiver will be “inapplicable or unenforceable in this case.” McCormick said he believes the court will apply the standard of gross negligence because of the seriousness of the injuries, and allow the lawsuit to proceed. Gross negligence means “absence of slight care.” Davis said in her resignation as deputy chief in November she was “unable to perform all the duties of a regular police officer” because of an off-duty injury. Davis’ agreement with the city states she will work as a sergeant for another four months. Davis said Tuesday she filed the suit because she “didn’t see that there was any other option” to be compensated for her injuries. Davis is not sure what she’ll do once she leaves the Poulsbo Police Department, but a career in law enforcement isn’t likely in her future, she said.

“As far as chasing people, at some point I have to decide, ‘Can I physically do this job anymore,’” Davis said. Davis started her law enforcement career in 1992 as a reserve officer with the Bremerton Police Department. In September 1995, she was hired as a full-time commissioned officer. Upon completion of the Washington State Basic Law Enforcement Academy, she was named Best Overall Recruit in her class. In 2002, she was promoted to sergeant by thenChief Robert Forbes. During her career with Bremerton, she worked as a bike and boat patrol officer, school resource officer, field training officer, Taser instructor, defensive tactics instructor, crime prevention detective, traffic sergeant, and K-9 unit supervisor. Davis received an associate’s degree from Olympic College in 1994, a bachelor of science in criminal justice administration from the University of Phoenix in 2009, and in August 2011 completed a master’s degree in business administration from the University of Phoenix. She and her husband, Bremerton Police Sgt. Mark Thompson, live on a farm in Seabeck. They have three children and three grandchildren.

will now be covered by funds saved from the Noll Road improvement project (which came in $46,000 under cost). In addition, Seton’s bid is more than $18,000 less than the city’s engineering estimate. The lighting plan includes replacing state Department of Transportation standard light poles in the middle of the parking lot with two smaller, decorative light poles that are more “pedestrian-friendly.” The lot will also be restriped with straight, rather than diagonal, parking

spots. Three one-way lanes will be replaced with two, wider two-way lanes. The amount of spots will also be increased by two, bumping parking in the downtown core to 1,201. The parking lot will be rebuilt and outfitted with stormwater treatment features such as rain gardens. The lot will have fresh asphalt. “Because the [subsurface] is very moisture sensitive — it is material which was dredged from the bay 30 years ago — we can not use previous asphalt,”

Assistant Public Works Director Andrzej Kasiniak wrote in a previous email. 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 lot will also include objects to channel traffic — raingardens and shrubbery — brighter lighting and groundcover along Waterfront Park. The project includes a 10 percent cost contingency if the project is delayed because of weather.

January marks National Glaucoma Awareness Month

Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide, affecting over 100,000 people In the U.S. alone. Glaucoma is generally a slowly progressive disease where one loses his/her peripheral vision from optic nerve damage. Patients are typically unaware of their vision loss until late in the disease process. Although glaucoma does result in blindness, vision can be saved if proper diagnosis and treatment is enacted. Education and awareness is critical.

Often, vision loss occurs so slowly that we don’t notice it until the problem is uncontrollable. If you experience a change in your vision, you should consult your optometrist as soon as possible. Warning signs include: trouble adjusting to change in light or darkness, double vision, seeing “spots” or “floaters”, change in the color of the iris, excessive watery or dry eyes, unusual sensitivity to light or difficulty focusing.

Police chief leaving early; Wright acting chief Wednesday

By RICHARD WALKER

rwalker@northkitsapherald.com

POULSBO — Poulsbo’s police chief is homeless — in Poulsbo, anyway.

Dennis Swiney, 56, is still chief of police, but he’s spending most of his time in Visalia, Calif., his hometown to which he will return upon retirement.

Swiney (pronounced Swee-nee) had earlier announced he would retire and leave the department March 31, but on Jan. 4 the mayor announced Swiney

bumped that date up to Jan. 15. Swiney’s house reportedly sold sooner than he thought it would — on Nov. 20, according to the Kitsap County Assessor’s website.

Swiney’s wife, Sandy, has returned to Visalia and their furniture and belongings have been moved there, Deputy Chief Bob Wright said.

Since mid-November, Swiney has been on vacation 23 days and on sick leave three days, city HR See SWINEY, Page A17

Poulsbo port manager retiring, moving to N.Z. By MEGAN STEPHENSON

mstephenson@northkitsapherald.com

POULSBO — Poulsbo Port Manager Kirk Stickels is retiring and moving to New Zealand. He announced his retirement to the port district’s Board of Commissioners Jan. 3. Stickels, 64, has been port manager since 2005; before moving to the Poulsbo area, Stickels was port manager and volunteer firefighter in Sitka, Alaska; fire chief on Bainbridge Island for eight years; and fire chief in

When he announced his retirement in September, Swiney said he and his wife planned to keep a home in Poulsbo. “His relatives own a place in town, but that place is leased out,” Wright said, adding, “So he’s homeless, I guess.” Wright said Swiney is expected in Poulsbo next weekend. Wright becomes acting chief on Jan. 16 and will serve until a new chief is hired. Mayor

Monroe. Commissioner Stephen “It’s a comfortable area,” Stickels said of Kitsap. Swann said losing Stickels

is a “tremendous loss” to the port, and he has been an “outstanding” manager. Swann said commissioners have not yet discussed the search for a new port manager. Stickels said he’ll be working with the commissioners on the search, and he encourages current staff members to apply. Stickels said he has worked to maintain the marina and a high occupancy level, but he wished he could see the completion of C Dock’s new ramp and float.

Commission Chairman Tony DeCarlo said Stickels is one of the best managers he's worked with at the port; DeCarlo has been on the commission for 20 years. “[Stickels] was able to take directions and followed through” on projects, DeCarlo said. “He had the foresight to go look for things and go after things that need to be done. He’ll definitely be missed.” DeCarlo said commissioners will discuss advertising the position at a spe-

cial public meeting Jan. 16, 10 a.m. at the port’s meeting room on E Dock. Stickels’ wife, Jan, is from New Zealand; Stickels has permanent residency there and their children have dual citizenship. Stickels said he and his wife are building a house on their New Zealand property now. “It’s kind of like going back home,” he said. But “I would definitely come back.” His son lives in Suquamish, and his daughter lives in Snohomish.

His grandchildren were born since he’s lived in Poulsbo. Kingery said Swiney received 200 hours, or five weeks, of vacation time a year. He had 69 hours of vacation time left as of Dec. 31 and will be able to cash out any vacation time he doesn’t take. Although Swiney is a short-timer on vacation in another state, he’s still ultimately responsible for the department, Kingery said. She said he checks in regu-

larly and, on Friday, she talked to him on the phone. “He has a bad cold,” she said. Wright’s pay will be increased 3 percent while he serves as acting chief, Kingery said, and will revert back to his current salary when he returns to deputy chief duties. The Poulsbo Police Department has 10 officers, three sergeants, one detective, one deputy chief, one chief, and three clerks. Besides the chief’s absence and Wright filling in as acting chief, one sergeant is doing light duty. “We’re definitely feeling tight-staffed,” Wright said. “As you know, we took some personnel cuts a few

years ago. With change in the economy, I have full faith we’ll be restoring some of that. Our officers are doing a lot more with a lot less, and that’s not the preferential way to do it.” The City Council discussed Wednesday allocating funds for an additional police officer. According to the FBI’s Criminal Justice Information Ser vices Division website, in 2009 U.S. cities with populations of less than 10,000 reported an average of 3.5 officers for every 1,000 residents. Of cities with populations of 10,000 to 24,999 population, that average drops to 1.9 officers for every 1,000 residents. Poulsbo’s ratio is 1.6 per 1,000.

in addition to four other $200 scholarship awards: Scholastic Achievement, Hank Mann Sykes Service Above Self Award, Little Sister Mentor Award, and Miss Congeniality. Jahrielle’s platform is the “Rotary Youth Exchange”; she spent a year abroad in Hungary as an exchange student from the Silverdale Rotary Club. Lina McGuire, an 18-year-old senior at Olympic High School, was named first runner-up to Miss Silverdale. A total of $37,800 in scholarships were awarded to the 17 contestants. Charlyn Garcia, a contestant in the Miss Kitsap contest, received a $5,000 scholarship to Everest College in Bremerton and a $1,000 scholarship to Olympic College. Alyson Coleman, a Miss Kitsap contestant, was awarded a $10,000 scholarship from the International Air and Hospitality Academy in Vancouver, Wash. Those scholarships were awarded based on applications and

essays. (Another Allison Coleman was a Miss Poulsbo contestant.)

Pat’s idea was good enough to be used as the design — “Texas chic.” Whiskey Creek now has a cleaner Western look. Wagon wheels are suspended from the ceiling. Log bannisters have been cut up and remade as a wall display, framing the restaurant’s name. Blue and green walls accent the black furniture. Gone are the hard-backed wooden chairs that so many customers complained about. The chair seats were recycled into a new top for the bar. The show also opened a boarded-up window on one wall to bring in more light. The show’s host, Chef Robert Irvine, revamped the menu, most noticeably cutting it from 44 menu items to 22 (now at 27). On the episode, he called the steaks “bland” and said there were too many fried items on the menu, but didn’t seem to have any other critiques for the kitchen staff. Irvine added a few new items, such as halibut cheeks for the fish and chips, but Pat said that wasn’t practical for Whiskey Creek — halibut cheeks are only available a few weeks out of the year, and at high prices. Irvine’s style was a bit rough on the restaurant’s staff; server Jennifer Ludlow said Irvine’s approach reminded her of her father’s, who was in the military. See WHISKEY, Page A21

Car crashes into building in downtown Poulsbo Slone: Won’t affect grand reopening of day spa By RICHARD WALKER

rwalker@northkitsapherald.com

POULSBO — The Longworth Studio day spa building rumbled Tuesday night just as Kerry Slone and a client were talking about the wind. Then, the building shook. “We thought part of the roof ripped off,” Slone said. Then, Slone thought perhaps Second Seasons thrift store’s sign had fallen. She ran downstairs to find that a car had crashed into the employee entrance at Front and Young streets. Fortunately, no one was injured. “It was wonderful to

Whiskey

Continued from page A20 However, Pat said he and Karan were “congenial” to him and had “nothing but positives to share about the experience.” “Chef Robert brought first and foremost to my attention the things I was neglecting,” Karan said. “… I was neglectful [on] things that could have helped the staff. They struggled more than they should [have].” The transition has been a little rough. Whiskey Creek will no longer offer weekly jazz music — Pat said the $30,000 spent on musicians was too high — and the restaurant lost a lot of its regulars. Staff members say Whiskey Creek is going for a younger, familyfriendly crowd. Pat said a lot of folks came out after the show was filmed, but the restaurant was not immune to the typically slow holiday months, November and December. However, lunch and dinner guests have generally increased over past years, he said. Staff members say they still feel a little shortchanged. One of Irvine’s suggestions was a computer system for tracking inventory and orders. The show’s $10,000 budget didn’t include getting the restaurant a Point-of-Sale system (the touch screen computers for wait staff), but Pat did get a computer system for tracking inventory.

A car crashed into the side of a building at Front and Young streets in downtown Poulsbo late Tuesday. Herald photo see that everybody walked away,” she said. She said the car’s occupants were a

mom and her children. The cause of the crash could not be confirmed Thursday,

but Deputy Chief Robert Wright said there are no alcohol or drugs involved.

Service staff said they have gotten complaints from customers about slow service, especially right after the restaurant reopened. Nicole Smith, a busser and host at Whiskey Creek, said the restaurant was booked solid after the episode was shot, but the kitchen and serving staff barely had time to learn the new menu. “The Food Network left us with our pants down,” Smith said. Smith also said the staff didn’t appreciate Irvine suggesting employees were stealing upward of $100,000 a year. Both Smith and Pat said it’s to be expected that some drinks or meals will

be comped (on the house), but the restaurant needs an accountability system. “[The staff] like to have structure and that’s what we were missing,” Karan said. At $20,000 per machine, Pat said he will invest in a new computer system when they are able to afford it. One regular customer said she likes the new look “We would go back now because of the change, more than we would before,” said Patti Kelley of Poulsbo. Kelley was one of the lucky few that were able to snag a seat at Whiskey Creek’s opening night, with the cameras still rolling.

“It was really fun, the atmosphere exciting,” she said. Kelley was a regular customer before, but said the “atmosphere had gotten very stagnate.” She said she didn’t not like the food before, but thought all the changes to the restaurant were very positive. “It’s exciting to have some kind of marketing for our little peninsula,” Kelley said. The shoot was a stressful experience for the staff, and Pat’s not sure he would

The incident occurred after 7 p.m. Tuesday. According to Slone, the building’s owner, the crash caused significant damage to Longworth Studio's employee entrance, but the incident would not require closures or affect the day spa’s grand reopening Jan. 19. “We’re open for business,” Slone said. Young Street was taped off Wednesday morning and was inaccessible to traffic. Motorists could enter Anderson Parkway via Queen Sonia Vei and King Olaf Vei. Slone said there was no damage to Second Season, North Kitsap Fishline's thrift store. Second Season was closed when the crash occurred. Slone said she and her client were the only persons in the building

when the crash occurred. Slone is preparing to unveil her remodel and expansion. She said she invested up to $50,000 remodeling the interior and expanded into 2,000 square feet on the second floor. The day spa’s services include relaxation and corrective facials, nail care, massage, reiki, mud wraps, and salt scrubs. The day spa serves men and women. “We are very lucky that the only spot the car hit, on the entire building, was the employee entrance,” Slone said. The spa has three entrances and Second Season’s entrance was not affected, she said. “All of our businesses can still operate,” she said. Slone said it was too early to know how much it will cost to repair the damage.

do a reality TV show again, he said. But the Ziarniks say they feel less stress now. “We needed a kick in the butt … and [the show] gave us the opportunity,” Pat said. “Not only does [the show] help restaurants in financial difficulty, it showcases local restaurants and people.” Check out www.foodnetwork.com/restaurantimpossible for an episode guide. Whiskey Creek

Steakhouse is open Mondays, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.; Tuesdays through Saturdays, 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.; and Sundays, 4-8 p.m. Pat and Karan said they plan to host a screening of their episode in the restaurant soon.

Business Briefs OPG sells 11.5 acres at Harbor Hill for $3.3 million POULSBO — Pope Resources subsidiar y Olympic Property Group has closed on a $3.3 million sale of multi-family residential land in its Harbor Hill project to Landmark Development Group LLC. This 11.5-acre parcel is zoned for 172 multi-family units and represents approximately half the multi-family portion of the 244-acre project located in Gig Harbor, a suburb of Tacoma. “We are excited to have our first residential closing in this project since completing our development agreement in early 2011,” OPG President Jon Rose said in a press release.

“We look forward to working with Landmark and believe their project will be a great addition to the Harbor Hill development.” Pope Resources, a publicly traded limited partnership, and its subsidiaries Olympic Resource Management and Olympic Property Group, own or manage approximately 196,000 acres of timberland and development property in Washington, Oregon, and California. A coalition of conservation groups is trying to raise money to buy 7,000 acres of forestland and shoreline that Pope owns in North Kitsap. The coalition’s deadline is in March.

Doris Eloise Hallman Mattson

July 23, 1919 to January 3, 2013 Doris was born the 6th of 8 children to Elis and Eva (Morgan) Hallman, homesteaders in the Poulsbo community of Scandia. She married Fred Mattson of Bainbridge Island, and there they raised their family of 3 daughters to see all of their grandchildren call the island home. A nurturing mother and doting grandma to her family, she included an extra daughter to whom she and Fred opened their hearts and home. She was not afraid of the work ethic and demonstrated a “can do” spirit likely inherited from her pioneer family. She directed her influence in her church as a Sunday School & Bible school teacher, quilting for the needy, & serving as a church council member. She delighted in planning and preparing social events with her many friends at Bethany Lutheran Church. Her unwavering Christian faith, keen intelligence, humor and creativity sustained her through some of life’s potholes. In her 65 years in the same community she made many friends, often favorites being one-of-a-kind eccentrics. She was known to be available to many facing crisis in the community. As her first children left home, Doris fulfilled a lifelong desire, acquiring her drivers license and obtaining a nursing degree. She worked at care facilities on Bainbridge as well as in Seattle, including providing in-home dialysis. In nursing she was indeed a “natural,” passing this gift on to generations after her. Her inquisitive mind took her to visits in Europe and Africa. In her free time she followed the Seattle Mariners, Seahawks, and basketball. Her humor shone through her poetry in greeting cards of her creation, and she was a painter & potter, as well as a master and teacher of her egg craft, known as “Eggs by Eloise”. Doris accepted with exemplary grace a disability late in life, resulting from an accident not of her own doing. She cherished and charmed the superb staff of Crista Shores. Her passing was cause of profound grief to many who tended her. She was known as an “elegant lady” with a smile for all, to caregivers, who were much like angels to her. She left dear friends there. Her death reunites her with her husband, Fred; siblings Ralph, Roda Brown, Calla Brickley, Goldie Hagbo, Bill, David, Ted and a niece. Her children, grandchildren nieces and nephews express that they miss her unconditional love, and as a role model. She leaves daughters Marlene (Alan) Orwiler, Carol (Mike) Oas, and Brenda (Frank) Oster, Kathy Bennett Price; grandchildren Mark and Terri Orwiler, Michael Oas and Darcy Monette, and Alise Fulton. There are 12 great-grandchildren. A service will be at Bethany Lutheran Church of Bainbridge Island, 1/19/13, at 12:30 p.m.. Memorials in her name can be made to Bethany Lutheran Church or Crista Ministries, 19303 Fremont Avenue N., Seattle Wa., 98133. TRIBUTE Paid Notice

Kingston sailor wins lawn makeover from Grass Seed USA KINGSTON — Joshua Baker, a Navy petty officer first class stationed at Naval

Base Kitsap, has won a home lawn makeover from Grass Seed USA, a coalition of American grass seed farmers. Baker is one of four winners of the coalition’s Operation Home Turf veteran appreciation program. Each winner will receive a spring lawn revitalization valued at $500. Grass Seed USA will hire a local contractor in the spring to evaluate each winner’s lawn and implement the lawn care. Baker enlisted in the Navy shortly after high school, seeing it as a good way to start a career. He has been deployed on nuclear submarines all over the world, and he completed a bachelor’s degree in workforce education by taking night, weekend and online classes. He is currently on deployment and his wife is at home caring for their

four children. “Finding time to maintain their lawn has become impossible,” according to Grass Seed USA. Baker and the other winners were randomly selected from the nominations of servicemen and servicewomen received through Grass Seed USA’s Facebook page. “It is an honor to be able to reward deserving service members, both past and present, for their dedication to our country by providing a new or improved lawn,” coalition executive director Bryan Ostlund said in a press release. “These home lawn makeovers are just a small token of our appreciation for their service, but we hope that by helping them create a relaxing retreat on the home front we can let them know their sacrifices are recognized and appreciated.”

NUWC Keyport employees support local food banks Divers from Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Keyport, unload trucks full of food donated by NUWC Keyport employees for the command’s annual winter food drive. Employees in Keyport, San Diego and Hawaii donated nearly 4,200 pounds of food to six food banks.

30 percent increase in donations Keyport — Employees of Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division, Keyport donated 4,197 pounds of food for the NUWC Keyport Winter Food Drive, which benefitted numerous organizations in Kitsap, San Diego and Hawaii. “Times are tough for many of our friends and neighbors, and I’m proud of the fine people at NUWC Keyport who opened their hearts to so many,” said Capt. Dave Kohnke, commander, NUWC Keyport. “What a pleasant surprise it was to learn that this year’s winter food drive saw an increase in donations of nearly 30 percent over last year. That says a lot about the generous

NUWC Keyport’s Dive Locker picked up collection boxes throughout Keyport, delivering to food bank volunteers waiting just outside the main gate. The amount of donations was much larger than anticipated: one vehicle used by the divers was so overstuffed that passengers in the vehicle carried boxes of food on their laps and one large box was

placed on the roof of the truck canopy. NUWC Keyport conducted its first food drive during the winter of 2000. Noting that hunger is a year-round problem, NUWC Keyport added a summer food drive in 2007. Since the program’s inception 12 years ago, NUWC Keyport employees have donated more than 32,000 pounds of food to local food banks. Established in 1914, NUWC Division Keyport operates the Navy’s fullspectrum research, development, test and evaluation, engineering and fleet support center for submarines, autonomous underwater systems, and offensive and defensive weapon systems associated with undersea warfare and related areas of homeland security and national defense.

who came to us nearly a year ago when his elderly owner went into assisted living. She had 12 cats. He was one of the shyer males. Lenny has turned into quite the charmer. He now comes out to greet us each morning with a great purr and dancing around our feet for attention. He does headbutts and snuggles too. He does well with the other cats but really likes his “alone time” with us. Lenny will be at the Poulsbo Petco this week (1/7-14).

‘Because every child deserves to have a bed’ Company program, employee contributions help meet local needs By Leslie Kelly Kitsap Week SILVERDALE — Sometimes Santa doesn’t come on Christmas. And sometimes he doesn’t wear red. Just ask Central Kitsap teenager Ashley Nesper, who was surprised on New Year’s Day by a group of employees from Ashley Furniture HomeStore. Dressed in winter coats, they arrived at her door with gifts in hand and on a truck. It’s all a part of the company’s Hope to Dream program. Participating stores donate $5 from every mattress sold and use that money to provide beds to those in need. There is a formal application process and a committee that reads through the applica-

Ashley Furniture HomeStore employees delivered a company- and employee-donated bedroom set to Ashley Nesper of Silverdale, Jan. 1. From left, Keola Choy, porter; Becca Lujan, customer relations manager; Ashley Nesper; Michael Nesper; and Albert Thompkins, sales manager. Contributed photo tions and selects the individuals who will receive beds for free.

In the most recent donation, the Ashley Furniture HomeStore in Silverdale

learned of the young girl who didn’t have a bed. “She and her father had just moved to this area from North Carolina,” said Albert Thompkins, sales manager at the store. “They moved for her father’s job and right after they got settled, the young girl broke her leg. When her dad (Michael Nesper) had to take off work to care for her, he was laid off.” Her father had planned to furnish the house after they arrived and saved some money, but when that didn’t happen, an acquaintance of their’s applied to the Hope to Dream program at the Silverdale store. “What caught our eye was that the application said the girl said “All I want for Christmas is a bed,’ ” Thompkins said. “It just pulled at our heartstrings. Kids should be thinking about getting toys at Christmas, not beds.” So the store employees got busy creating a beauti-

ful new bedroom for the 14-year-old girl, who was sleeping in a recliner chair, trying to get comfortable with her leg in a cast. The store employees had the bed and mattress from the store and then began a donation campaign among themselves to buy other items. In the end, they had sheets, a green comforter, an alarm clock, bedside table lamps and decorations for the bedroom walls. They also added gift cards for the family. “These were more the wants, not the needs,” Thompkins said. “But still. they were all the things a little girl would like for her bedroom.” Thompkins, and coworkers Becca Lujan and Keola Choy chose New Year’s Day for the delivery because not all the items were available before Christmas. It all came as a big surprise. “It was just an amazing day,” Lujan said. “[Ashley] was very surprised and

she loved everything.” Lujan also learned that Michael Nesper had told his daughter Ashley that Santa just couldn’t make it to their house this year. So that made the late gifts even more special. And, even though it wasn’t planned, the items were green and pink — which just happened to be Ashley’s favorite colors. “She just lit up,” Thompkins said. “It was something to see. That’s why we do this, because every child deserves to have their own bed and get a good night’s sleep.” The Hope to Dream program has been in place at the store since 2010. The goal is to provide a mattress to a selected applicant once each quarter. Applications are available at the store at 9577 Ridgetop Blvd. NW. “We’d like to do it more often and we’re working on ways to expand this program,” Lujan said.
