Volunteer officers lend a hand to sheriff’s office Citizens go on Patrol
By Leslie Kelly lkelly@soundpublishing.com

Mike Kennedy, left, and Emil Ellis often patrol together as volunteers with the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office Citizens on Patrol program. Volunteers have been patrolling the county for 14 years.
They wear uniforms and drive county cars. They are put through an exhaustive training program and they have to pass proficiency exams. And they issues tickets. They are the Citizens on Patrol unit of the Kitsap County Sheriff’s office. “We’re all volunteers,” said Mike Kennedy, training coordinator and volunteer officer with the Citizens on Patrol (COP) unit. “But we are an important part of what the sheriff’s office does and we take our job very seriously.” Kennedy has been with COP for almost 10 years. As a retired service and repair man for AT&T, he saw an advertisement in a local paper and decided to respond. “I wanted to do something for my community,” he said. “I saw this ad and as I looked at it, the list of things
that were included in the job enticed me. So I applied.” The COP program has been around in Kitsap County since 1999. It was begun by a group of four volunteers who wanted to enforce the disabled parking laws, because the sheriff’s office didn’t have the time or manpower to do so. The four got Sheriff Steve Boyer to sign on to the idea and used their own cars. “They’d attach a magnetic sign to the side of their cars, put on a hat and a vest and out they’d go,” said Kennedy. Kurt Corey, one of the original four, said the idea of having citizens on patrol met with favor. “People would always come up to us and thank us for what we were doing,” Corey said. “The only complaints we ever got were from the offenders who were getting a $250 ticket for wrongly parking in disabled spots.” Within two years, the sheriff ’s office decided to make the program more professional and with seven

Police break up sex ring By Kevan Moore kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Since December of 2012, detectives with the Bremerton Police Department have been working a rape and human trafficking investigation involving two juvenile victims (ages 16 and 17) and one adult victim. To date, five individuals have been arrested and charged for their involvement and are currently in-custody at the Kitsap County Jail. Two others have been charged with felonies, but are currently out of custody. The charges on these individuals range from second degree rape, second degree trafficking, promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, tampering with a witness, to commercial sexual abuse of a minor. “This kind of activity will not be tolerated in our community, and we will aggressively investigate anyone involved in exploiting kids,” said Bremerton Police Chief Steve Strachan. He added, “The young girls are victims, and the pimps, their adult employees, and the Johns are nothing but predatory criminals.” Here is a rundown of arrests in the case so far, according to police: • The leader of the criminal organization, 23-year-old Allixzander Park was arrested Dec. 31. Park has since been charged with second degree rape, second degree trafficking and promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor. Park is being held on those charges at the Kitsap
County Jail. • On Jan 17, 25-year-old Andre Herron was arrested and has since been charged with second degree trafficking. Herron is also incarcerated at the Kitsap County Jail. • On Jan. 23, 22-year-old Victoria Pangelinan, who police refer to as Park’s girlfriend, was arrested and has since been charged and convicted of tampering with a witness. Pangelinan is currently incarcerated at the Kitsap County Jail. • Trista Chisholm, 28, was arrested Feb. 5. Chisholm has been charged with promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor and is in custody at the Kitsap County Jail. • Detectives arrested 23-year-old Demario Jones March 16. He has since been charged with second degree rape and promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor. He, too, is in custody at the Kitsap County Jail. Two customers (also known as “Johns”), who allegedly had sex with the juvenile victims in exchange for money, according to police, have been charged: • The first “John,” identified as 64-year old Stephen Wilson of Port Townsend, has been charged out of Kitsap County with commercial sexual abuse of a minor. • The second “John” was identified as 45-yearold Scott Surma of Yelm. Police say the Thurston County Prosecutor has charged Surma with comSee Trafficking, A13

County refinances building By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Kitsap County is poised to save big bucks after refinancing bonds for the Norm Dicks Government Center in downtown Bremerton. Kitsap County Treasurer Meredith Green says that by taking advantage of good interest rates, the county and Housing Kitsap will save $102,000 per
year over the next 20 years. The county will also refinance two other bonds from 2003 and 2004. The savings on those is expected to be $234,000 per year over 15 years, Green said. In 2003, the county partnered with the City of Bremerton and the Kitsap County Consolidated Housing Authority, now known as Housing See building, A13

Teachers’ artwork on exhibit It’s a mixture of cats and flowers and mountains with a few monster tea pots and an original take on an ancient Greek jug. The selection of work by art teachers in the Central Kitsap School District and the North Kitsap School District is currently on display at Global Bean Coffee, 2021 NW Myhre Rd. in Silverdale. The work includes two and three dimensional pieces, each with a detailed description of the work, the inspiration behind the work and the artist’s background. Among the pieces are the “Marine Amphora,” by Eric Von Seggern, who teaches at Olympic High and Central Kitsap High schools. He’s been a teacher for 17 years and made this piece by hand, thrown on a wheel. It’s inspired by an ancient Attic Greek pottery style. Then there’s “Keeping Watch,” a pastel painting by Judy Sorrels, art teacher at Central Kitsap High School for 17 years. She calls the piece familial with the older cat alert and watching

Two felines make up the work “Keeping Watch” painted by art teacher Judy Sorrels. while the younger feline sleeps. She began by doing color sketches of the two cats and then created the pastel painting. A trio of artwork in the display are the monster tea pots, whimsical art work of Gina Marchetti, teacher at Klahowya Secondary School. Each of the three takes on its own personality. The pieces were thrown on a wheel and then altered by hand-built
forms. And don’t miss the oil paintings of Douglas Dammarell, who teaches at North Kitsap High School. From Poulsbo, he’s inspired to paint by his favorite spots, including Crescent Bay.

Common sense has been forgotten in gun debate
IN OUR OPINION
Sandy Hook. Columbine. Virginia Tech. The Aurora movie theater shooting. The names are way too familiar. And the scenes are etched in our minds. All of these mass shootings have one thing in common; sensible talk about the role of guns in these increasingly common tragedies has faded so fast that nothing has been done to address preventing future incidents of gun violence. There are those who say guns are to blame. The anti-gun groups will say that there is no need for any American civilian to own a semi-automatic weapon that can shoot a massive number of people in just seconds. They are calling for universal background checks, tighter controls of gun shows, and limiting high-capacity ammunition magazines. On the other side are those who claim that the U.S. Constitution and the Second Amendment allows Americans to own any and all guns they want, whether it be for protection or for recreational use. These folks say it’s their right and they will not compromise on the number of guns they can own, the amount of ammunition that they can have or the places that they can carry their guns, concealed or not. An example of that: those who went to Olympia with guns in full display to make a statement about gun rights. Or those who took their guns to an Oak Harbor City Council meeting to protest a council proposal to prohibit guns in city parks. Somewhere in the middle of this debate are those who can see a compromise on allowing rightful responsible gun ownership but want to address the need for better mental health care in this country. They believe that individuals like those behind the terrible shootings of recent years would have been noticed and treated were there more mental health screenings in schools and other public institutions. This year’s talk on gun control, on both the national and the state level, quickly moved to the extreme ends of the debate. On one extreme, in South Dakota, the state has passed legislation allowing and encouraging all teachers to carry handguns in their classrooms. At the other end, here in Washington state, it was suggested that gun legislation carry a stipulation that anyone owning an automatic weapon would get a visit from the local sheriff, who would “inspect” their home to make sure guns were being stored safely.

If delight since the conference had been becomes a strong desire we such a treat, I certainly didn’t often increase the size and want to blow that important frequency of the TREAT and detail. a harmful habit can result. By the way … the thing And that can become a
THREAT to both ourselves and those we love. In fact, when enough people engage in this lifestyle, it can even become a threat to the world around us. As Graham Kerr explains … “Habits that harm are often hard to admit to because we enjoy the immediate sensual sensation of tastes, aromas, colors, and textures in our daily foods and beverages. It’s not easy to choose to consume less of something we enjoy, especially when the food or beverage has been commercially enhanced in order to keep us coming back for more!” But it’s not just the food “enhancement” that we have to deal with. It’s also the marketing strategies that give the appearance that “price to size” looks like a good buy. As a result, the enhancement and marketing of attractively priced, readily available foods and beverages can lead us to
make immediate choices that appear to be treats, but may, in the long-term, become threats. So what can we do to protect ourselves from these potential dangers to our health and well-being? Based on what I learned from Graham Kerr, the most important action I can take is to approach my daily eating habits with a commitment to consume smaller portions … know what I’m eating, and its nutritional value … look for alternatives that do less harm … and encourage my wife to also eat healthy. As Graham Kerr would say, “the common good is the good we do in common.” By the way … in case you were wondering from last month’s column what the seniors at my church chose for their name … we managed to settle on “Pacesetters.” Personally, I think we made a good choice.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Applauding a budget for all of us At Kitsap Bank, we work every day with our local small and medium sized businesses who have been realigning their budgets and priorities as a result of the recession. We’ve worked with borrowers who have fought through, by prioritizing and restructuring their business and their debts, all the while paying a higher Business & Occupation tax bill to help state government through the downturn. Therefore, we applaud the bipartisan efforts our State Senate has made in producing a budget that honors the spirit of our Washington small businesses and keeps the promise made in 2010 that those higher B&O taxes on small businesses would, in fact, be temporary. It’s not easy to craft such a budget. It would be easier to keep the tax going once we’ve become accustomed to paying it. After five full years, the state’s income is back to its peak level. Tax collections for 2013 are basically the same as in 2008 at the height of the boom. It is, therefore, appropriate to bring the B&O tax back to the 2010 levels, as was the original intent. We are looking forward to this recovery and the return of prosperity to our communities and our state. Giving people confidence in the promises of their government, and giving the middle class and small businesses more of their income to invest in growth and local job creation will create a snowball effect that will drive tax receipts up as economic activity blossoms. The members of the Senate who have recognized this and crafted a budget accordingly deserve our praise and our support – and we are pleased to be counted among the appreciative local businesses saying, “Thank you” to our Senate for putting politics aside and doing the right thing. Steven L. Politakis Chief Executive Officer Anthony M. George President and Chief Operating Officer for Kitsap Bank

All of the debate around new gun laws has prompted some gun supporters to stock up on weapons, in fear they might not be allowed to buy certain guns or ammunition in the future. In fact, last weekend’s gun show at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds had a record attendance, sponsors reported. The extreme rhetoric needs to stop. The fear needs to stop. Common sense needs to prevail and compromise needs to take place. Limitations on high-powered semi-automatic weapons and large ammunition clips needs to be coupled with protections for responsible gun owners. And anything that happens needs to include meaningful solutions on how we handle mental illness in the country. Look at the faces of the parents of the Sandy Hook victims. Listen to them when they tell us that it will happen again unless change comes. We owe it to them to find answers.

Clear Creek Trail may get new footbridge By Leslie Kelly lkelly@soundpublishing.com
Tex Lewis has another idea. And when Tex Lewis has an idea, action follows. Lewis, who has been part of the Clear Creek Task Force for years, is hoping to add another footbridge at the north end of Dyes Inlet, just behind the Hop Jack’s restaurant and the Silverdale Beach Hotel. “It’s an area where, when you’re walking the trail, you can’t get across the water without having to walk up to the road,” Lewis said. “For some of us, that disturbs the idea of taking the trail and being close to nature.” So he and others who have worked on trails in the area decided to do something about it. They found a 60-foot length of boardwalk that is no longer in use at the Kingston Marina and have plans to move it to the north end of Dyes Inlet. They will take their
case to the Central Kitsap Community Council when the council meets April 17. That meeting is at the Water & Fire District Community Room, 5300 NW Newberry Hill Rd, Silverdale, at 7 p.m. Lewis, a retired engineer, has already met with Washington State Fish and Wildlife officials and they are evaluating his plans for the north-end footbridge. “Right off, they had some concerns about the quality of the wood we had,” he said. “They are checking to make sure there are no creosotes in the wood. We don’t want to do anything that’s not environmentally sound. Even if this boardwalk doesn’t work out, we’re gonna get some kind of footbridge at that location.” Lewis isn’t new to boardwalks. In 2009, he helped secure a boardwalk on the Clear Creek Trail near the All Star Lanes. That boardwalk was nearly 600 feet with a 40-foot wooden bridge

Volunteers with the Clear Creek Task Force have plans to place a footbridge at the northern portion of the trail along Dyes Inlet near Hop Jack’s and the Silverdale Beach Hotel. and was placed through the efforts of the task force, and donated labor. The Olympic College’s Engineers Without Boarders designed and helped secure permits for that project.
With the new footbridge, Lewis has again asked engineering students from Olympic College to help out. “They’re on board,” he said. “And we’re pretty sure we can get donated labor to
place the bridge.” Concrete foundations will have to be placed, he said. And then the foot-bridge will have to be placed on top of the foundation. The project could take several weeks, but Lewis hopes to
have it in place for use this summer. Lewis’ work on the Clear Creek Trail started in 1993 when he and late businessman Paul Brittain sought to preserve the creek corridor in the midst of Silverdale’s growing commercial development. Together they established the Clear Creek Task Force that is made up of service clubs and volunteers. Since then, portions of the trail have been added almost every year. With the previous boardwalk, a grant was secured to cover the costs of materials and supplies. Lewis said if it is determined that the old boardwalk from the Kingston Marina can’t be used, there may be need for some fundraising to cover the costs of new lumber for the footbridge. “We’ll just have to wait and see,” he said. “I think we’ll know in just a matter of days if we’re in that situation.”
Candidates are lining up for Bremerton elections By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent said this week that she will be seeking a second term and plans to file paperwork to make it official. District 1 Councilman Jim McDonald, meanwhile, who was elected to a four-year term in 2010, announced this week that he will not be running again for city council. “I have enjoyed my time on the council,” he wrote in an announcement. “I sincerely appreciate my opportunity to serve our citizens of Bremerton. I will always be grateful for the dedication and commitment by all our council, staff, and committee volunteers who work to make our city better. I am confident that Bremerton is progressing and will continue to be a great place to live and work.” Other than spending more time with family and traveling, McDonald said he expects to continue living in Bremerton and will “watch its exciting development.” A few other city council members have made official announcements about seeking re-election next year when the council will shrink from nine seats to seven following a voter-approved reorganization of the board. Adam Brockus, whose current District 3 is made up mostly of Manette, will seek a third term. His new district will include less of Manette and more of downtown and Evergreen Park neighborhoods. “I’ve been honored to represent my neighbors in Manette for the better part of a decade, and I think we’ve made great improvements in that time,” Brockus said. “Now I hope to
represent the neighbors on the west side of the Narrows in bringing an improved and better Bremerton.” District 2 Councilwoman Leslie Daugs will also seek re-election in an expanded east side district. She was first elected in 2011, earning more than 66 percent of the vote in her district. “I’m running for re-election to continue to provide a strong voice for my district, advocating fiscal and moral responsibility and smart budgeting for the city,” Daugs said. Daugs also said that she will continue to fight for her constituents that don’t live downtown. “Bremerton has made significant progress in recent years and while I appreciate the steps forward, I would like to see a stronger emphasis on supporting neighborhoods and families — there’s more to Bremerton than just downtown,” Daugs said. “District 2 is a work in progress, and we must continue forward with a stronger focus on the east side and the Wheaton Way corridor.” Current City Council President Greg Wheeler has also said that he will seek reelection in a newly formed district. The life-long Bremerton resident and Navy veteran who works in the engineering department at PSNS, was first elected to the council in 2010. He says his focus is safe neighborhoods and parks, well-maintained streets and sidewalks and fully funded core city services. In addition, he said he strives to create a business friendly environment and always factors in long-term and hidden costs before casting any vote.

RePower Kitsap set to power down this summer wmorrow@soundpublishing.com
RePower Kitsap has been operating in Bremerton, Bainbridge and throughout the county since early 2010. The grants that have made the program possible for the last few years, however, are expiring. To take advantage of state tax credits and RePower opportunities, all home energy upgrades must be made by July 15. Stephanie Gray with Conservation Services Group said to get the work done on time, homeowners need to be thinking about changes now and start talking to contractors by April or May. Saturday, April 13, RePower will host what the program is calling its Final Boarding Call for Kitsap County residents. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Woodward Middle School on Bainbridge, the program will host workshops, speakers and booths for many of the region’s sustainable energy businesses. RePower is offering an additional $800 incentive to those who attend the April 13 event. Gray said RePower can help most people reduce their energy consumption by 60 percent and the cost of their energy bills by 30 percent. RePower Kitsap is a county-wide program that works with residents to identify and implement more efficient and sustainable home energy options. It works with local groups and contractors to offer recommendations, home-energy audits, affordable financing options and product installation. The program is funded by a federal BetterBuildings grant. Residents in Bremerton or on Bainbridge Island may be eligible for additional savings and options through the RePower Bremerton and RePower Bainbridge programs, which are related to but separate from RePower Kitsap. Molly Brumley, on behalf of RePower, said the program has served 400 homes and around 70 businesses on Bainbridge and 135 homes in Bremerton. RePower is 90 percent of the way toward its goal of home upgrades during the last few years, but would still like to serve a few hundred more homes before the program runs its course this summer, Gray said. The program has helped hundreds of residents receive home energy audits in the last few months alone, according
to Gray. What they would really like, she said, would be to get all the people who’ve received audits to think about Windows making some of the recommendedWindows changes while they can still receive tax breaks and grant support through RePower. While the grants that have made RePower possible in Kitsap County over the last few years are expiring, Gray said Conservation Services Group would like to maintain a strong presence in the area and continue to work with local contractors. “We’ve already come so

“Macaroni Kid” fills a niche in Kitsap County By Leslie Kelly lkelly@soundpubishing.com
Diane Kehm is a planner. Ever since her daughter Kristen, now 10, was an infant, Kehm has been on the lookout for ways to engage in the local Kitsap community. It didn’t matter if it was a baby music class for her daughter, or a parenting class for herself, she’s known about it and been able to take advantage of it. As a former newspaper reporter, Kehm knew the
ins-and-outs of researching what’s going on. And when the Internet came into play, she mastered that, too. “It didn’t really matter what I was talking about,” she said. “It could be a weekend festival for the whole family, or maybe a class on baby signing, wherever I went people would say to me, ‘How’d you find out about that?’ ” Sometimes it was another parent she’d meet. Or maybe her neighbor. Or even her hairdresser. But regard-
less, she’d share her information with them. Today, with her daughter and her son, Ramsey, 7, in school, she’s making a career out of sharing that kind of information. Kehm is Kitsap County’s Macaroni Kid Master. She is editor of the local “Macaroni Kid” newsletter and website – a place for parents, grandparents, and teachers to go to find all kinds of information for kids from infants to teenagers. “Macaroni Kid” covers the spectrum of things to do with kids – classes,
shows, events, festivals, museums, special events, as well as things to do at home such as cooking projects, books to read, arts and crafts and more. “I’ve just always been the go-to person when it comes to finding out what’s going on,” she said. “When my daughter was young, it was just my project – to make sure that we had something to do that was creative and fun, but that didn’t cost too much. “Now, it’s still the same thing, only I’m sharing it with anyone who wants to know.” “Macaroni Kid Kitsap” is affiliated with the national Macaroni Kid based in New York. Kehm said she learned about “Macaroni Kid” from reading “O Magazine.” Her page started with a handful of subscribers in 2010. Today, she said, it has 3,600 subscribers to the weekly e-newsletter and 40,000-plus webpage views each month. She also has 2,280 Facebook fans. “I think I had five subscribers at first,” she said. “And they were all family. But it’s growing all the time. People are hearing about it from other parents, or from their kids who hear other kids mention it.” Because most parents are too busy to research all the possible events and classes that are available on any given day, they welcome her website. “Parents are hungry for kid-friendly things to do locally as a family and “Macaroni Kitsap” has met this need by showing them the vast offerings available for kids from birth through high school,” Kehm said. “I try to pay attention to the things that I think my kids would enjoy and that don’t cost too much.” The website is free to subscribers and makes money selling advertis-
Diane Kehm ing, some nationally and some locally, which Kehm also is in charge of doing. She researches what’s going on and posts to the site and she also accepts contributions from organizations and businesses that have offerings for kids. “Everything is listed for free, unless it’s something where the tickets are expensive,” she said. “In those cases, if it’s a performance or a play where it will cost the families more than $10, there is a nominal fee to be included.” Her goal is to provide information that most families can use and that is inexpensive. The site also offers things to do at home. “It’s not just things that you have to leave home to do,” she said. “There are craft ideas and science projects that can entertain the kids at home.” The site has a selfsubmittal option but she reviews the information before it goes live. “I rarely reject anything,” she said. “The test is if it’s something I would take my kids to. If it’s a theatrical production that’s adult-driven, then probably not.” Kehm was recognized as one of the “best, brightest and most outstanding individuals in Kitsap County under the age of 40” in 2012 by the Kitsap Peninsula Business Journal. She continues to stay in touch
with both the journalism world and the business world through her website work. Another great part of her website is the “Worth the Drive,” section. “That’s where I list places and things to do outside of Kitsap County,” she said. “These are the special weekend adventures that you might take your kids to or listings of the major museums around here and the days when admission is free.” Just recently, she and her kids spent a Saturday in Seattle at the Pacific Science Center to see current exhibits. When she returned home, she was able to share what they’d enjoyed on her site and on Facebook. Although she spends a lot of time in the “virtual world,” Kehm said the best part of her job is when she gets “real” feedback. “Saturday, I posted a reminder on Facebook about a class at Home Depot,” she said. “When I got home from Seattle, a reader had thanked me for reminding her about it.

Bremerton baseball squeaks past Klahowya By WES MORROW wmorrow@soundpublishing.com
It was a tight game to the end Tuesday night for Bremerton and Klahowya. It was the opposite of the same night’s Mariners game, in which both teams combined for more than 20 points. Both pitchers held the mound well, not giving up any easy hits. Bremerton pitcher Eli Fultz pitched a scoreless game, shutting out the Eagles’ offense. Bremerton head coach Steve Schorzman praised the defense of both teams after the game. “Both pitchers pitched to contact really well,” Schorzman said. It was “a really clean game. There were no errors. In the high-school game you don’t see that.” It was a defense that
Bremerton would need to defend its small lead for half the game. The Knights’ one run came in the fourth inning when Fultz came up to bat with Jason Crumb on second base. “We had the last couple days off for spring break so I knew I was a little rusty swinging the bat and seeing the ball,” Fultz said. Fultz fell down in the count 0-2, but took a change-up and was able to get the bat on the ball to score Crumb. Overall it was a good game for Fultz, who threw 78 pitches and got credit for the win on top of his game-winning RBI. Klahowya started the season strong, playing undefeated in league until they ran up against

There might be no greater challenge for Kailyn Skjonsby to overcome than a lack of competition. That is one reason why South Kitsap coach Mark Myers was pleased when Central Kitsap’s Dana Jensen lined up against his senior Tuesday afternoon in the Wolves’ Class 4A Narrows League opener. “A lot of times teams don’t play their best person against her,” he said. “It’s good for her to get this competition.” Skjonsby, who has advanced to state the last two years, had little difficulty defeating Cougars’ junior Dana Jensen 6-0, 6-1. But Central Kitsap coach Ken Allen, who noted that Jensen advanced to the league playoffs in 2012, thought it was a good expe-
rience for his pupil, as well. “Dana’s getting better every year,” he said. “I think it was a great test for her. It’s great to play strong players along the way.” Skjonsby said this was the first time she’s played against Jensen, but has watched her compete. She said the match gave her insight on aspects of her game that need improvement. “I didn’t play great, but I worked through it,” Skjonsby said. “I need to work on my serve. It was there and then I lost it.” Her outcome helped lead South to a 4-1 victory. Junior Emily Wilkins defeated Jillian Carlo 6-0, 6-2, at No. 2 singles. The Cougars’ lone win came in the No. 1 doubles match as Julie Fish and Maureen Crowe defeated Samantha Barrow and Rachel Bauman 6-4, 2-6, 6-0. Despite the setback,

the only undefeated team in the Olympic League. They stand alone at the top of the League, 8-0. The team’s biggest hurdle, said Schorzman, will be their next game. The Knights will play Port Angeles, whom they only beat by one run the first time around. At this point in the year, Bremerton will have to play back through the league before any thought of playoffs. They’re looking to avoid a repeat of last year, Schorzman said, where the team overlooked a must-win game before the playoffs and failed to qualify. “We haven’t established enough tradition to be able to look ahead, and even if we did,” Schorzman said, “it doesn’t matter.”

Central Kitsap’s Dana Jensen prepares to serve to Kailyn Skjonsby. Skjonsby won the match 6-0, 6-1. Myers liked how that tandem performed. South’s doubles teams rotated through the nonleague portion of the schedule. “I’m still trying to find those magic combinations, but I think we’re getting close,” he said. Myers particularly was impressed with Barrow’s mentality on the court. “Some people are out here for fun and some people
have that killer instinct,” he said. “She’s definitely got it.” South 4, at Central Kitsap 1 Singles-Kailyn Skjonsby (SK) d. Dana Jensen 6-0, 6-1; Emily Wilkins (SK) d. Jillian Carlo 6-0, 6-2.

Crafty woman takes junk and turns it into treasures Overlooked Treasures By Leslie Kelly lkelly@soundpublishing.com
To an untrained eye, that old broken table might just look like junk. But not to Sandy Keidel. Keidel is the owner and the inspiration behind Overlooked Treasures, a second-hand store that recently opened in Bremerton. She shops garage sales and estate sales and remakes furniture and collectibles that other people might just throw away. “I’m not sure you would call it a talent,” she said. “But I can see things in stuff that other people would just call junk. Many times I bring something home and someone will say to me, ‘That belongs in the trash.’ But I see the potential.” Her “talent” started at a very early age.
“My grandfather owned a mercantile in a small tourist town in upstate New York,” she said. “When I was a kid I liked to look around the store and in the back room and see what I could find. My grandmother used to say I was nosey.” As she got older, that investigative nature took her to shop garage sales and old barn sales. She began to accumulate too much stuff. “I would switch out everything in my house every other season because I had so much furniture,” she said. “After years of doing that I decided I had to get rid of some of it.” With a 23-year background in the garden and nursery business and as a clerk at a grocery store, she decided to try her hand at retail. She opened up a booth in another market called the Flea Market Chics. There, she displayed the remade furniture that she’d painted. “It’s kind of like therapy

anything with my collection until lately.” Having raised five children, worked full time and moved with her husband from New York to Washington state to California and then back to Washington a few years ago, she was just too busy to really have a business of her own — until now. Her husband has been a ship and ferry builder and followed his work to various locations. Just last month, she opened her own shop in the same location where the Flea Market Chics had been at 1212 Pacific Ave. in Bremerton. Flea Market Chics moved to a new location in the Manette Mercantile and Keidel decided to stay and go it alone. At her shop, which she
calls Overlooked Treasurers, she has a quaint showroom of the dressers, tables, plant stands and other furniture that she’s found and spruced up. The items are accented with great finds like lamps, garden tools, kitchenware and linens. She also sells locally made hats, scarfs, jewelry, jams and soaps. In a room at the back of her store, is her workshop. “I spend a lot of time in there,” she said. “It’s where I do all my creating.” She takes special care to paint all the refurbished furniture with Annie Sloan brand chalk paint which has no chemicals or latex. “It’s expensive paint and often times it takes two coats,” she said. “For me it means
less profit, but I want to know that everything that goes out the door here is environmentally the best it can be.” When she looks for furniture, she looks for good quality wood, anything made before the 1960s. “I like to find the vintage stuff, the older stuff made in the 1930s, because the wood is so much better,” she said. “But if I find stuff that’s not so good, I can use it, too, mostly for parts.” Often times she’ll paint a dresser or table a base color, possibly an off-white, and then add color to it by painting insets or handles a brighter color. Big dressers and tables are what sells the best and her turn-over happens fast. “People like the big stuff because they want to put their big screen TVs on them,” she said. “Those go real fast. I’ve only been open since Feb. 11 and I have very little in here right now that was here when I opened. I’m always adding new things.” When she’s not shopping estate sales, painting or working in her store, she likes to garden in her yard. And her house these days has very few pieces of her collection. “Our house is pretty small,” she said. “Lots of times I make something that I really like and I want to keep it. But I know I don’t have room so I just have to part with it.” The store is open Tuesdays through Saturdays 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Maxim adds to her role with Sound Lori Maxim, vice president of West Sound Newspaper Operations for Sound Publishing, Inc., will assume additional responsibilities of vice president of the company’s Olympic Peninsula newspapers, the Peninsula Daily News, Forks Forum and Sequim Gazette. Maxim’s title will not change, and she remains vice president of Sound newspapers for the San Juan Islands, Vashon Island, Whidbey Island and in Kitsap County, as and 14 Little Nickel publications. Publishers of the Olympic Peninsula newspapers will now work directly with Maxim rather than the president of the company. Sound Publishing bought the Olympic Peninsula newspapers in 2011. “Sound Publishing’s recent growth has given us a chance to reconsider or reimagine our leadership structure,” Sound Publishing President Gloria Fletcher said. “Effective immediately, Lori Maxim will
begin to oversee our teams at the Peninsula Daily News, Sequim Gazette and Forks Forum. Lori has a wealth of experience given her tenure with Sound Publishing/ Black Press.” “In her almost 25 years with the company, she has worked with a multitude of paid and free products of every shape and size. The Olympic Peninsula news products are certain to enjoy her leadership and many talents,” Fletcher said. Maxim has more than 30 years of newspaper experience. She joined Sound Publishing in 1988.

Renton skips on Flip By WES MORROW wmorrow@soundpublishing.com
In late March Renton School District announced Bremerton Superintendent Lester “Flip” Herndon as one of three finalists for the district’s own superintendent position. It looks as though Herndon will be staying in Bremerton a little longer, though, as Renton announced Tuesday morning it had chosen one of the other two finalists. Merri Rieger, chief student achievement officer for Kent schools, was selected to be Renton’s next superintendent. Rieger at one point served as the principal of Bremerton High School. The other finalist who was not chosen was Crystalee Sweeting, an assistant superintendent for Puyallup schools. “Renton’s reputation attracted a strong field of candidates due in part to the tremendous community support we receive,” school board President Lynn Desmarais told the Renton Reporter. “And with the community’s help in assessing leadership potential, Dr. Rieger rose to the top.” Herndon and the other two candidates each spent a day last week visiting with community members, staff and administrators in Renton. If Herndon had been chosen, he would have started with Renton on July 1. This marks the second time in just more than a year that Herndon has applied for a superintendent position with another district. Both times he made it far enough to be one of a handful of remaining applicants. Last February, Herndon applied for the superintendent position in the Puyallup School District and, along with six others, made it as far as the semifinalist stage. He has been with the Bremerton School District since 2009, when he was selected over other two finalists, Terry Edwards and Mike Parker. Herndon grew up in Tacoma. He has a bachelor’s degree from Whitman College in Tri-Cities, a master’s degree from Harvard and a Ph.D. from the University of Washington. He has held the position of teacher, assistant princi-
pal, principal and assistant superintendent before coming to Bremerton. Renton School District is the twenty-first largest in the state. During the 2012 school year it was home to around 14,600 students, which is around three times
the size of Bremerton, which had just under 5,000 during that same time-span. Renton’s former superintendent, Mary Alice Heuschel, vacated the position when Gov. Jay Inslee selected her to be his chief of staff.

Bremerton approves utility rate increases By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com
Utility rates are on the rise in Bremerton following a comprehensive rate study over the last year. The Bremerton City Council voted 6-1 last week to raise rates on water, sewer and stormwater bills over the next six years. The new ordinance passed by a vote of 6-1, with Councilwoman Carol Arends casting the lone “no” vote. Council members Jim McDonald and Wendy Priest did not attend the meeting. The average bill for most customers will go up by about $50 by 2018. Financial Services Director Becky Hasart said the utility rate increases are necessary for several reasons. “Our capital needs are going to ramp up in a couple of years and we all know that we have aging infrastructure,” Hasart said. “If you don’t start adjusting rates for that now to try and smooth out what the increases are going to be, you end up in a situation where they can spike quite significantly.” Hasart said that by looking out over a sixyear horizon customers will have a better idea of what to expect and make necessary adjustments, rather than trying to guess what rates will be on a year-to-year basis.
Under the ordinance approved last Wednesday, there will be a decrease in the base rate and increase in the usage rate. It is hoped that the scheme, with locked in usage rates for all customers, will encourage acrossthe-board conservation. But former council member Roy Runyon and rate study committee members John Larson and Bob Dollar urged the council to take a different approach and charge a lower rate for customers who use less than 400 cubic feet. Runyon told the council that widows, residents on fixed incomes and retirees or those “struggling to maintain their homes and stay in their homes” would benefit the most from such an approach. City Councilman Adam Brockus introduced an amendment along that vein that would provide a cost savings incentive to use less water, but it failed in a 4-3 vote. Councilman Eric Younger was one of those that disagreed with Brockus’ approach. “Don’t hit them just because they’re using water,” Younger said. “We have plenty of water. We’ve got the Cascad Dam and we’ve got wells.” Council members Faye Flemister, Carol Arends, Eric Younger and Nick Wofford voted “no” on the amendment while Brockus, Leslie Daugs and Greg Wheeler voted “yes.”

The definition of a weed is any plant that grows where it’s not supposed to. It doesn’t have to be an undesirable plant. It can be a plant that’s in the right place that naturalizes itself all over.

of buttercup or horsetail? That tells me you have a wet garden and need to correct some drainage issues. Do you have a lot of dandelions? That tells me you have a rocky or compacted soil. Adding compost and creating berms will help. As a natural gardener I like to use every means possible without the use of chemicals. In my business I use the IPM method - integrated pest management. It’s a lot of pulling weeds, using my propane torch and other non-toxic means. And please use safety when torching! Many people like to use landscape fabric on the surface of the soil before they mulch to prevent weeds. I don’t like the fabric because if you’re not on top of the weeds, the roots of the weed will go through the fabric and when you pull the weeds you pull up the fabric, too. Instead of that, use newspaper and, in some places, cardboard. I like to use leaves in the fall. But with some leaves you’ll have to run a mower over them to break them up a bit before using in the garden. On a lot of my client’s
yards, I create a compost pile and use the finished product in the garden. If we all made our own compost we would prevent a lot of it from going to the dump and save money fertilizing plants. Try to put some corn gluten on your f lower beds as a pre-emergent. But I would hold off on that method if you sow seeds. That goes for your lawns, too. In all the years I have been gardening, I can tell you that chemicals never work for the long term. I had a customer put a “weed and feed” down one year and the next year, what came back with a vengeance? Weeds! We have to work with nature and never against it if we want a healthy and weed-free garden. It takes a few different practices. And in the end, it will work out for all of us. Happy gardening.

O.C. evacuated Olympic College evacuated its Bremerton campus just after 2 p.m. on Monday and cancelled classes for the remainder of the day after police received a bomb threat. According to police, they received the threat through a public phone booth just after noon. Police alerted Olympic College security, who decided to evacuate and close the campus around 2 p.m. Despite the evacuation and cancellation of classes, Bremerton Police Capt. Tom Wolfe said the threat did not appear to be credible. Because police did not consider the threat credible, Wolfe said they made recommendations to the campus security, but ultimately it was the college that made the decision to evacuate, not the police department. Olympic College spokeswoman Jennifer Hayes said the university activated its incident management team
after the police contacted the school. That team is composed of school leadership such as the campus security head, vice presidents, Hayes and others. “We decided at that point as a precaution that we should evacuate,” Hayes said. Hayes said the security team asked for staff volunteers, and once the evacuation was complete those volunteers went from room-toroom checking for anything unusual or suspicious. “That’s something that is typical for colleges and universities in a bomb threat,” Hayes said. “Because (teachers and staff) know those areas better and can identify suspicious things in the room.” Rooms were marked with Xs when cleared. Wolfe said police were following a lead that they thought could take them to the person who called in the threat.

Police say that in addition to coordinating, transporting and arranging the prostitution-related activities in Kitsap, Pierce, King and Thurston Counties, Allixzander Park also introduced the two juvenile victims to an adult working as a prostitute out of a motel in the city of Bremerton. The purpose of this introduction was for the two juvenile victims to learn about

Kitsap, to purchase and develop the government center. The City of Bremerton recently refinanced its bonds for the project for estimated debt service savings of $1,320,706 during the remaining life of the bonds, with the city’s savings estimated at $741,718. Green says that the housing authority still owes the county about $10 million for
to access department records on the spot. They provide security at crime scenes and they route traffic through accident scenes. They patrol and report suspicious activities and they help to promote the sheriff’s department at community events. “In the beginning, we had some trouble with people taking us seriously,” said Kennedy. “They would say ‘You’re not a deputy. You don’t have a uniform and a badge.’ Once we got those things, people began to see that we were for real.” The only thing they don’t do is carry firearms, he said. And because of that, when things get to the stage where any of them feel threatened, they call for a deputy to come to the scene. Scott Wilson, deputy sheriff in charge of public
affairs and media relations, said the work that COP does far exceeds the cost of the program. “The return on investment is so much greater than the costs,” Wilson said. “These guys save the taxpayers money and they do the work that needs to be done. That frees up our officers to handle more threatening matters in a timely fashion.” Just last year alone, volunteers put in 8,499 hours which equals 4.2 full time deputies. In dollars, that’s a savings of nearly a quartermillion. “We use to get so tied up with calls about abandoned vehicles and parking violations,” said Wilson. “But with these guys helping out, that doesn’t happen anymore.” Each volunteer goes
the commercial sex trade. This suspect has been identified as 28-year-old Trista Chisholm. Chisholm instructed the juvenile girls about the prices associated with prostituting, told them about websites commonly used to advertise prostitution and arranged for the girls to get started with one of her regular customers. When the “John” arrived, identified by police as Wilson, Chisholm set the customer and two girls up in a separate motel room. Chisholm received pain pills as payment from the “John” and each of the girls were paid $50 and some
marijuana and a marijuana pipe in exchange for sex. Early on in the investigation, Pangelinan was arrested for tampering with a witness. Police say Pangelinan sent a message to one of the juvenile victims, via Facebook, instructing her among other things to “say nothing about how she was making money.” After being arrested and charged, Pangelinan was convicted of tampering with a witness on April 3 following a bench trial.

a $40.5 million loan to keep the agency afloat that was set to be due this month. But Green said things could be worse. “I think, like a lot of people in retrospect, what we did with the housing authority wasn’t a great idea. But one of the things that has happened since 2009 is we started with $40 million in debt and expected to end up with somewhere between $12 to $15 million in debt,” she said. “The commissioners worked very hard to get us into a situation where
the housing authority’s remaining debt was about $10 million. Given where we started, with $40 million in exposure, where we ended up is pretty impressive, especially considering the real estate market.” Just how Housing Kitsap will repay the county is still not certain, but it’s expected that it will apply its $51,000 annual savings toward the debt. The county, meanwhile, under a new payment structure, will pay $782,000 a year over the next 16 years to pay of the debt.

through an extensive application process and background check. They take a polygraph and they are interviewed by deputies and others in the COP program. They get 24 hours of training on everything from radio calls to how to write a ticket. And they have to be certified in CPR and First Aid. Part of the training includes classroom instruction and part of it is riding along with a seasoned crew. And at the end, there’s a written test. It can take several months for a candidate to get through the entire process. “By state law, in order to write infractions (tickets), each officer has to have the training and take a test,” Kennedy said. “The process of the training, too, is set up so that we know that the people wanting to volunteer are doing so because of a genuine interest in the program and not because they have some kind of Rambo complex.” Once in the program, each volunteer is asked to give 16 hours a month, but most give more.

In 2012, Citizens on Patrol: Issued 489 disabled parking citations at $450 each; Handed out 230 other parking violations, most were $20 fines; Issued 1,535 warning tickets; Made 2,020 vacation checks; Processed 373 abandoned vehicles; and processed 320 junked vehicles. p.m., and sometimes later. “This is a great volunteer job because you set your own hours,” Kennedy said. “It can work around any schedule.” Volunteers include housewives in their 30s with time to volunteer to retired grandpas in their 60s. The minimum age is 21. For Kennedy and his partner Emil Ellis, they’re out about 50 hours a month. Ellis joined up in 2010 after he retired to this area. He and his wife are from the Pacific Northwest and before retirement, traveled extensively with Broadway shows doing behind-thescenes work. “I saw the Citizens Patrol
units around in the parking lots and I thought it would be fun to be a part of it,” he said. “So I went to the sheriff’s website and applied. I always had an interest in law enforcement but it didn’t happen as a career.” The pair has made many loops of many parking lots in the county and have stood by for as many as five hours at the scene of a fatality accident directing traffic. But they’ve never gotten tired of each other. “The way we partner up is just based on who can get along with each other for six hours in a vehicle,” Kennedy said. “And Emil got stuck with me.” Korey, who was a citizen on patrol for 13 years, retired from service last year and is now teaching driver education classes. “What the (COP) volunteers have done throughout all these years is so great,” he said. “It’s helped the community and it’s been rewarding to each of us and I’ve enjoyed it immensely.” For more information about the volunteer possibilities with COP, call Rebecca Pirtle at 360-337-4650, or check out the sheriff’s website at www.kitsapgov.com/ sheriff/.

Mom’s school-morning lesson
School mornings with Ford, 12, go something like this: at 7:45 a.m. he yells from downstairs that I’m going to make him late. But when we get in the car at 8:05, he often realizes he’s forgotten his binder, or his gym shorts and that he needs to run back inside. Of course, it’s still my problem, if not my fault, when we pull into the school parking lot one minute late. Ford likes me to turn down my Elvis music before he opens the door because there is always a crowd of middleschoolers standing nearby on the curb. Apparently, nothing is worse than starting your junior high school morning with friends hear-
Navy Wise
Sarah Smiley ing “What Now My Love” on your mom’s radio. But Ford always — no matter how late or annoyed with me — pauses before he shuts the car door and says, “Have a good day, mom,” or “I’ll see you this afternoon.” I smile as I watch him
run into the school building, papers flying out of his binder and half-open backpack. Sometimes, his shoes are still untied. I wonder if he’s forgotten his lunch. School mornings with Owen, 10, go like this: by 8:30, he has fed the dog, picked up Ford’s baseball bat in the backyard, made breakfast for his younger brother, and brushed his own teeth. He waits patiently by the front door until I am ready. When I drop off Owen at the curb outside his school, he walks calmly and steadily to the front door. I call out the window, “I love you,” and “have a good day,” but he just waves over his shoulder. Sometimes, if I feel like making a scene, I call out again, “It’s okay; I know you love me, too.” Then he pretends to not know me. He slips through the front doors of the school without much fanfare. And then there’s Lindell,
who is 6. There is a word for school mornings with Lindell, but it can’t be printed here. If there’s syrup on his waffles, he wanted no syrup. If there’s milk, he only wanted orange juice. He streaks through the living room and then complains about being cold and unable to dress himself. He takes ten minutes to put on a pair of Velcro shoes. Once we’re in the car and backing out of the driveway, he says he needs to use the restroom. But the scene when I leave Lindell at kindergarten is beyond comparison. First, I have to drag him out of the car. He flails around and complains about everything from feeling sick to his shoes being too tight. Next, inside the school lobby, I have to peel him off me. Then I run out the front door before he can follow. Sometimes, I cry when I get back to my car. I can’t decide which is harder, Owen’s cool and easy

goodbye or Lindell’s separation anxiety. By 9 a.m., however, I feel like I’ve already had my high and low for the day. What other identity, besides motherhood, has you at once doubting yourself, then feeling overly confident, and finally crying in your car, all within one hour of waking up? The boys ask why I don’t homeschool them. I’m genuinely surprised the older boys would want to be home with me. Even so, my reply is always the same: I would be the worst homeschool parent ever (see paragraph one about making Ford late). Also, I can’t do it all. That’s the tough part of motherhood: we are schedule-keeper, nurse, therapist and disciplinarian for these little people who, in Owen’s case, just wave over their shoulder as they walk into school, like we haven’t cried a million tears over them. Or, in Lindell’s case, they clasp onto our leg while we peel them away, and then we feel guilty the rest of the day. Could I really be expected to grade and pass or fail these
people, too? A couple of weeks ago, I had a freak-out moment about this “doing it all” stuff, and in particular, morning drop-off with Lindell. It wasn’t pretty. I was tired and beaten down, and Owen witnessed the whole cry-fest. The next morning, on the way to Lindell’s school, Owen reached over and grabbed his brother’s hand. “You’re going to have a good day today,” he said. “Do you want me to walk you into the building?” Lindell nodded. I watched as he and Owen walked hand-in-hand to the front of Lindell’s school. Owen patted Lindell’s shoulder before he told him goodbye, then he waited while Lindell went inside. I realized, maybe I don’t have to do it all. Sometimes, their brothers will step up, too. When I dropped off Owen at school that morning, he paused before he got out of the car. He smiled and looked over his shoulder. “Have a good day, Mom,” he said. And it was a good day.

SINGAPORE– Sailors from the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS John C. Stennis (CVN 74) participated in several local sporting events to enhance and strengthen camaraderie between the Republic of Singapore and the United States. Stennis Sailors joined Singaporeans for games of rugby, basketball and soccer during their three-day port visit to the Asian city-state.
Sailors took part in a rugby coaching clinic with the Singapore Wanderers Club April 2, where they learned proper ball handling, tackling and game fundamentals before playing a scrimmage game against the Wanderers. “They were competitive games,” said Chief Hospital Corpsman Rodel Salazar, the head coordinator of Stennis’ sports teams, “but it was also a good opportunity to

men’s basketball game. “The (Slingers) tested our players’ strengths and it was a great opportunity for our Sailors.” Stennis’ team led the game through the third quarter, but the Slingers came back in the fourth to win with a final score of 62 to 59. The Stennis is expected back in its homeport of Bremerton in early May. For more go to JCSCSG visit www.stennis.navy.mil.

Colin Robert McKay of Bremerton died April 1, 2013. H e was born March 24, 1919, to Emmitt and Liona McKay in Winlock. Mac McKay M a c passed away eight days after his 94 birthday, at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. For more than 70 years he made Bremerton his home. He leaves behind his loving wife, Sandy, his children Diana, Dave and Charlene, eight grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. His daughter Janice preceded him in death. His “day jobs” started with fishing on the “seining grounds” near Warrenton, Ore., and included working at Boeing, the Puget Sound Navy Yard, and finished with Keyport Torpedo Station where he retired in 1975 as an electronics technician. After graduating from high school in Winlock, he earned an AA Degree from Olympic College. His loves included traveling, photography, bird watching, hiking, reading, woodworking, model railroading, making music, boating and building his own house on the water. He and Sandy enjoyed cruising, at first on their 25’ sailboat and then later on their 25’ Nordic Tug, throughout Puget Sound. They also traveled to Sandy’s home states of Iowa, Kansas and Oklahoma. He was a member of the Bremerton Yacht Club, the Bremerton Power Squadron, the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary; the Bremerton Elks Club; and the Bremerton Masonic Lodge. His love of music, through mostly singing and playing keyboards, started in high school, during the time he was enlisted in the U.S. Army, and continuing throughout his life. He even performed in a nursing home while recuperating from a fall. While he was playing in a band in Astoria, Ore., he Sandy. They celebrated 40 years together. Mac composed numerous songs, and honored his wife with his song “Sandy is the Word for Love.” There were no services. Donations may be made to the American Diabetes Association.

Walk to defeat multiple sclerosis Multiple sclerosis is an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the
central nervous system. MS attacks the myelin sheath around the nerve, interrupting the flow of information between the brain and body. Symptoms range from numbness and tingling to blindness and paralysis. (Actor-singer Annette Funicello died April 8 of complications from MS.)

They’ll also replace your light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs, which use two-thirds less electricity and last 10 times longer than traditional light bulbs and fixtures; and they’ll replace your showerheads with lowflow heads, for free.
Volunteers build a trail at Stillwaters Environmental Center in Kingston.
Keep Kitsap clean every day Take a drive or walk and you’ll probably see roadside litter and illegal dumping. It may be cigarette butts, beverage containers, or fast-food wrappers tossed from a car. Or mattresses, sofas, appliances, or even harmful chemicals that someone has dumped along the side of the road. It’s not just an aesthetic problem; litter poses an environmental problem. Despite years of campaigns to curb the problem, garbage still finds its way onto roadsides, public and private lands, streams, and eventually Puget Sound where it can pollute beaches and wild-

Works Department’s Solid Waste Division and the Kitsap Public Health District work constantly to clean up litter and improperly disposed garbage. The Clean Kitsap Program — a program administered by the county Solid Waste Division — coordinates the cleanup of hundreds of miles of county roadsides every year, along with thousands of pounds of illegally dumped solid waste at parks and public lands. This program is funded through a $1-perton fee built into the solid waste disposal rate at the Olympic View Transfer Station, and grant funding from the state Department of Ecology. Some highlights from the Clean Kitsap Program in 2012 include: n Inmate litter crews
cleaned up more than 20 tons of litter along more than 1,300 miles of road. n County staff cleaned up 367 illegal dump sites, totaling almost 100 tons. n County staff assisted in the cleanup of nine properties, totaling 40 tons of waste through the voluntary cleanup assistance program. n 171 Adopt-A-Road Volunteers removed more than 3,000 pounds of litter from 264.5 miles of roadway. n Residents used the Clean Kitsap-sponsored “Tire Roundup” in April 2012 to properly dispose of more than 25,000 tires. n Residents brought approximately 45 tons of furniture and other household bulky waste to the Kitsap County Furniture Round-Up Day at the Olympic View Transfer Station on June 10, 2012. The 20 tons of garbage picked up by the inmate crew, which filled more than 6,000 bags, took more than 7,500 manhours of labor. Using the inmate crew saved the county $158,299. The Kitsap County Public Health District has a different focus, conducting investigation and enforcement of illegal dumping and premises complaints. In 2012, the Health District investigated 532 complaints, 142 of which were illegal dump sites. Inspectors have the ability to issue civil infractions for violations of the Health District’s Solid
Waste Regulations, including illegal dumping. The fine is $524 per violation per day. So what can you do to help the problem? Officials with Clean Kitsap Program recommend: n Use a qualified, permitted contractor to haul your waste to the transfer station. The Health District advises calling your service provider to discuss removal of waste in excess of your normal collection volume if you subscribe to curbside garbage collection. Go to www.kitsapcountyhealth. com/environment/ under “Waste Handling A – Z” for a list of permitted contractors. n Be sure to cover and secure your load before heading down the road, including tying down the lids on garbage cans. n Reduce litter in your neighborhood by bagging and tying garbage for curbside pick up, so items don’t spill out when the garbage truck empties it. For information about the Clean Kitsap Program, the Adopt-A-Road program, and guidance for how to properly secure your load, go to www.kitsapgov.com/sw/cleankitsap.htm. To report illegal dumping, call the Kitsap Public Health District, (360) 337-5235, or fill out the online Illegal Dumping Complaint Form at www. kitsapgov.com/sw/ cleankitsap_3.asp.

Ste. Michelle’s new label focuses on value NW Wines I
n 2003, Doug Gore handed over the Columbia Crest winemaking reins to oversee all of Ste. Michelle Wine Estates’ production. A decade later, he is getting back into winemaking with a new label that pays tribute to the Columbia River’s history and focuses on the important and remote Wahluke Slope. Last fall, the Northwest’s largest wine producer launched Seven Falls with three wines and Gore in charge. “This is an opportunity to get back into winemaking,” said Gore, who remains executive vice president for winemaking, viticulture and operations for Ste. Michelle Wine Estates in Woodinville. For the first release of Seven Falls, Gore and his team made more than 50,000 cases of wine at Columbia Crest in Paterson, where Gore is based. He made Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot from the 2010 vintage and Chardonnay from 2011. The wines are sold

the Columbia is tranquil as it flows past the towns of Mattawa and Desert Aire, tamed by the dam that provides electricity and irrigation to the region. Marketing for Seven Falls has focused on a techconnected, mobile audience — a different tactic than any other Ste. Michelle brand. The website is optimized for smartphones, and each wine has a QR code on the back label. A quick click of your phone will bring up YouTube videos on the wines and region, along
primarily at restaurants in Washington and Oregon, though they also can be purchased online at www. sevenfallswine.com. All three wines retail for $15. The grapes for Seven Falls come from the Wahluke Slope, a 13-milewide bench southeast of Ellensburg along Highway 6,000 acres of wine grapes 243. It is one of the warmplanted on the 81,000-acre est areas in the state for stretch of land.

The only thing Gore “I like it a lot,” Gore said doesn’t like about the of the Wahluke Slope, as region? “Cellphone serhe pointed out it consisvice is a bit spotty,” he said tently is one area of the with a chuckle.

with food pairings and tasting notes. We recently tasted the three Seven Falls wines. Here are our notes: n Seven Falls 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon, Wahluke Slope, $15: It is a smooth, supple red that is eminently approachable in its youth and priced to enjoy any night of the week. It opens with aromas of ripe raspberry, Belgian chocolate and black licorice. On the palate, it unveils plush, delicious flavors of boysenberry, black pepper, ripe plum and dark chocolate. Moderate tannins provide plenty of intensity on the entry and ample structure throughout. n Seven Falls 2011 Chardonnay, Wahluke Slope, $15: This deli-

cious white tastes more expensive than it is, thanks to luscious aromas of butterscotch, baked apple and spice, followed by rich flavors of orange, dried pineapple and oak. It has surprisingly lively acidity, considering the amount of oak and lees aging. n Seven Falls 2010 Merlot, Wahluke Slope, $15: This smooth, delicious Merlot shows off aromas of Bing cherries and exotic spices on the nose, followed by smooth, elegant and approachable flavors on the palate. Supple tannins combine with ripe red fruit for a classic, easy-drinking Merlot. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman run Great Northwest Wine, a news and information company.

North Kitsap Herald Culvert fix will cost neighbors $100K: State Fish and Wildlife engineers have deemed a 12-foot diameter arch culvert a “sufficient” replacement for a smaller culvert in Dogfish Creek that washed out in December — taking a section of access road with it — on the 21000 block of Bond Road. That comes as a relief — albeit costly relief — to the property owners who depended on the access road to get to and from their homes in this rural neighborhood of five homes. Wy Chamberlin, who
is representing the group of property owners, said replacing the washed-out culvert will cost “upwards of $100,000” — a cost they will have to share. The project, designed by a Seattle fisheries engineer, consists of a 12-foot diameter steel arch culvert on concrete footings being placed over the stream, then backfilled to create a new access road over the stream. — NorthKitsapHerald.com
