POULSBO — Some residents are asking a Viking Avenue bar to change its signage, saying the use of an image of a cult leader responsible for several murders is offensive. One resident equates the sign to “hate speech.” “I wouldn’t dare go into a bar with Charles Manson’s face on it,” said Amber McIntosh, referring to the sign for Poulsbo’s Helter Skelter Lounge. “Helter Skelter alone is fine,” McIntosh said. “With Manson’s image on it, it’s his (version of) ‘Helter Helter Skelter Lounge owner Joe Skelter.’ I think it’s Boyle said his bar was named racist and in bad for the Beatles song. Some resitaste.” dents oppose the use of Charles More than 40 Manson’s image on the lounge’s people are involved sign. Richard D.

POINT/COUNTERPOINT
Continued from page A1 letter warned: “good luck getting reputable businesses to revitalize the area if they think the town is full of neo-Nazis and everyone has white hoods in their closet.” Lounge owner Joe Boyle said he was surprised when the letter was published, though, not because of McIntosh’s opinion. “I knew I would hear something when I put (the sign) up,” Boyle said. “It’s surprising it took so long.” The Helter Skelter Lounge has served drinks and music for nearly two years. Boyle said the Beatles are his favorite band, so when he decided to open a bar with an emphasis on music, he wanted it to bear a connection to them. “To be quite honest, I’m a business man and something that is going to be remembered is far better than something you forget,” he said. “’Revolution 9’ was my first choice (for a name) because I like that song. But I didn’t think anyone would get it.” Boyle said that he then settled on “Helter Skelter,” a more well-known song. “And I figured I throw the whole story together,” he said. “People don’t leave the wolf out of the story in
“I figured I throw the whole story together. People don’t leave the wolf out of the story in ‘Little Red Riding Hood.’”
“I don’t think it’s free speech, it is hate speech. It’s incendiary.” — Amber McIntosh, opposed to use of Charles Manson’s image in a bar sign
— Joe Boyle Owner, Helter Skelter Lounge
‘Little Red Riding Hood.’” The wolf, in this case, is Manson. The cult leader believed Beatles songs were coded with white supremacist ideals. The 1969 song “Helter Skelter,” to Manson, was really about an unavoidable race war. Manson believed his family of white followers would survive the apocalyptic battle and subjugate the surviving non-white races. Manson’s prophecy didn’t pan out, however, after he ordered his followers to murder Leno and Rosemary LaBianca, and actress Sharon Tate and others in 1969. Manson and several of his followers were arrested. He remains in jail to this day. “I wasn’t alive when it happened, but I know what Manson’s interpretation of ‘Helter Skelter’ was, and it’s racist,” McIntosh said. Inspired by McIntosh’s
letter, Poulsbo resident Lydia Sigo decided to take up the issue online. “I had wanted to go in there (in the past) with some of my friends, but the sign made me not want to go. It offends me,” Sigo said. “When I saw the letter, I said, ‘Somebody else feels this way, too.’” Sigo engaged Boyle via Facebook on Dec. 13. The online conversation went rounds between Sigo and Boyle. The two failed to find common ground. Boyle argued that music is at the core of his business, which accepts all people. Sigo disagreed. Boyle then published the entire email thread on Helter Skelter’s Facebook page. “She kept saying that she didn’t say certain things. I was like, whatever,” Boyle said about posting the thread. When the conversion between Boyle and Sigo went online, it sparked a
much wider debate across social media. Both Sigo and Boyle received online support from their respective supporters. Of those involved in the community conversation, some say the bar is the best in town and write of its laidback atmosphere. Others stressed the connection between the imagery on the sign to Manson’s racist views. Sigo said she also received hate mail as a result. “They said negative things, making assumptions,” Sigo said. “They were calling some names. “I don’t like all the drama that went along with our Facebook exchange. I would love to see them replace their sign, and that other people in the community would say that they would come in for a beer if they took the sign down.” McIntosh, who has never met Sigo, agrees. “I don’t have any ill feelings toward (Helter Skelter). I want to see the business do well and I think the business can do better without the image on there,” McIntosh said. “That area of Viking Avenue needs some help and (the sign) makes the entire area look worse than it is.” McIntosh brought the matter up with the city, but was told that the sign is

considered free speech, she said. “I don’t think it’s free speech, it is hate speech,” McIntosh said. “It’s incendiary.” Boyle maintains that the bar has no racist angle. “It’s not a hatred thing or a white supremacy thing,” Boyle said. “I feel
like everybody is entitled to their opinion. If they don’t like it, they don’t have to come by.” “We’re a super mellow bar,” he added. “I’ve put a lot of money into it. It’s a very nice bar. It’s got a lot of classy features to it.”
North Kitsap’s guide to local beauty services Do you have well water? If you’ve noticed that your hair feels heavy or maybe the color isn’t what it should be, it may be the result of certain minerals in your water building up in your hair and preventing the products you use from doing their job. Consider a treatment at your salon that would remove that buildup and let your shampoo, conditioner or styling products do what they’re supposed to do!

IN OUR OPINION
Poulsbo Port District could do more for Poulsbo I
n February, you will be asked to decide a very important question: Whether to increase the Poulsbo Port District boundaries to roughly those of the City of Poulsbo. In January, the North Kitsap Herald will present a public forum on the issue. The date is being scheduled. Stay tuned. Here’s why expansion of port boundaries is so important. Voters created the Port of Poulsbo in 1951 to operate marine- and recreation-related facilities and help bring economic development — investment and jobs — to the community. But as the city boundaries grew, the port district boundaries did not. As a result, only half of the city’s commercial and residential property owners pay a property tax to support a port district that benefits the entire city. The benefits of expanding the port district’s boundaries: All voters in Poulsbo would be able to vote for port commissioners; currently, only port district residents can do that. All residents of Poulsbo would have a voice in port matters. The enlarged port district would generate significant tax revenue that could be used to replace the breakwater and its creosoted pilings; improve the seaplane dock and the marina so the port can accommodate larger tour vessels; and prevent further erosion at the foot of Anderson Parkway. Larger port district boundaries would also empower the commission to look beyond the waterfront for economic development. Under state law, the port district could play a major role in economic revitalization in Poulsbo through the acquisition of property for commercial, ecotourism and recreational uses. In an earlier interview, Port District accountant Carol Tripp said the property tax levy will stay at 30 cents for every $1,000 of assessed valuation — about $75 a year for a $275,000 house. Between 2006-12, the port took in between $224,000 and $265,000 in tax revenue each year. Under state law, port districts are empowered to acquire property, lease property, engage in economic development, improve land for commercial and industrial use, and establish local improvement districts. Ports can invest in park and recreation facilities; roads and streets that serve port facilities; acquire, maintain and operate passenger-carrying vessels; and promote tourism. In an earlier interview, Port Commissioner Antonio DeCarlo indicated that, without additional revenue, the port district is limited on its ability to do any of those things.“We’re almost at the point where our current income meets [expenses],” he said. We can do better. We can empower the port district to be a greater force for quality of life and economic well-being in our community — to attract more businesses to Poulsbo, create new jobs, find a solution to erosion on Anderson Parkway, improve the health of Liberty Bay, improve boat, plane and customer facilities at the Port of Poulsbo, give more residents a voice in port matters, and spread taxpayer investment in the port across the entire city, not just a portion of it. If you could do all that for $75 a year, would you do it? We hope so. You’ll get a chance to learn more in January so you can make an educated decision in February.
LETTERS Congress lied to military retirees I urge all young people here in Kitsap County who are thinking of joining the military to reconsider that idea and do not join. Rep. Derek Kilmer and Sens. Murray and Cantwell just voted to cut pensions of military personnel and both houses in Congress passed the bill. We had a contract with the government when we joined the military on what our military pension would be if we honorably served and completed at least 20 years of service. However, our senators and representative just decided to stick a knife in our back after we completed our end of the contract and voted to cut our pensions to help pay down the national debt. Of course, these same liberals voted time after time for benefits for the non-taxpayers. Just do your research to find out who added more to the national debt these past five years — it wasn’t George W. Bush! I repeat, do not join the military, as all Congress will do is lie to you on what benefits you’ll supposedly earn if you join and complete
a military career. ANN MATHEWS Poulsbo
Government is the problem, not solution In the January 2014 edition of the Kingston Community News, columnist Marylin Olds in “As It Turns Out” used a phrase from the Reagan era to describe Supply Side Economics. The term “trickle-down economics” was/is a term used by Democrats to disparage supply side economics. Marylin, of course, has it wrong. (I am sure she feels that wealth is created by the government. She cannot be more wrong; government in and of itself creates nothing.) Under supply side economics, the U.S. experienced economic growth that has since to be equaled. Her simplistic description fell far short of reality. Simple put: “Supply side” grows the economy by allowing more money to stay in the private sector (where it is created). Business and private individuals decide were best to invest. The simple act of reinvesting cre-

ates growth and wealth. Private enterprise is not to blame for the current gap between the haves and the have nots. The current government should take full ownership of this problem. It has created a dependency class not seen since the Great Depression. Government regulation (example: Obamacare) has created regulations that encourage companies to hire part-time employees; this simple fact puts downward pressure on real wages. Another government program (QE3) has created tremendous wealth in the stock market, thus favoring the wealthiest among us. These are just two of the many government fallacies that have led to this gap. A side note: Unfettered capitalism hasn’t been seen since China took over Hong Kong. I would suggest that Marylin invest in an economics class from Olympic College. It will do her well. CHRIS JACOBSON Kingston

‘There will always be hope and progress’ Poulsbo’s gift TOLMAN’S to Santa Claus TALES By JEFF TOLMAN
T
he snow was lightly falling on Kvelstad Pavilion. Christmas Eve was nearing an end as children throughout North Kitsap listened for sleigh bells on the roof or dreamed of presents under their tree. Poulsbo’s streets were vacant except for the patrol vehicle securing the town. Santa sat on a hilltop overlooking the municipality, taking a break from his deliveries, tired, but satisfied with his journey so far. “What do you know of this place?” an elf asked as she sipped a cup of hot chocolate, relaxing before the next leg of the long
journey began. “This is Poulsbo. Little Norway. Visited by two kings. Home of a Rhodes scholar and several former world champions. The man we watched pull astronauts off the moon those years ago — remember? — was from nearby. It is a beautiful postcard on the water with a dynamic history and wonderful, caring citizens. You’d be amazed at the community’s participation in the children’s school, activities, and daily wellbeing. The sports fields and auditoriums are always filled with supportive families and friends.”
“You make it sound like a perfect town,” another elf noted. “No. It has the problems of any town. A tight budget. Substance abuse. Occasional growing pains. No municipality is perfect, but the mayor, City Council and school board are working hard, and together, to solve the issues of the day. Despite some disagreements on how to get there, all its citizens want Poulsbo happy and healthy.” As Santa and his helpers looked down, they could see holiday lights on many houses and the shadows of parents arranging presents under Christmas trees and setting out cookies and milk for Santa’s reindeer. Suddenly, voices filled the night with songs of the season. Celebrating the silent night. Singing hallelujah.
“(Poulsbo is) a constant reminder that we are all in this town, this world, and this life together.” One house sang of their dream of a white Christmas, just like the ones they used to know. A tear appeared in Santa’s eye as he readied to move the sleigh on. “We have lost so many wonderful people from the village this year. I hope their families and friends know that the next generation is solid and kind. Poulsbo will be strong despite its losses in 2013. Look at how these people care for each other — Bellringer helped so many families again
this year from community donations. The locals are working and worshipping together. Smiling. Giving this area the gift of hope and optimism, and being a constant reminder that we are all in this town, this world, and this life, together.” With the songs ringing in his ears and gratitude and optimism in his heart, Santa moved the sleigh and began the flight toward his next stop. As his journey continued, Santa realized Poulsbo had given him a wonderful Christmas gift. His moments of relaxation above the town had reassured him that despite the trials and tribulations that Poulsbo and every other town and city will experience, so long as people care about each other and work together, there will always

be hope and progress. On this Christmas morning and into the future. — Jeff Tolman is a Poulsbo lawyer and periodic columnist for the North Kitsap Herald.

Let’s build upon ‘life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness’ MY VIEW I
n studying our nation’s founding history, I realized our revolutionary founding fathers were liberals and progressives. They were liberals in that they favored political reforms trending toward representative government and personal freedom for the individual. They were progressives in the sense that they advanced the opportunities for individuals and favored working for improvement in individual opportunity. They opposed the tyranny and oppression under which they had suffered. As one reads the Declaration of Independence, we see a commitment among the Founders to a new status of individuals with respect to the governing authorities. They see a duty of those in leadership to be accountable, transparent and subject to those they govern. The status of the individual was declared in words never before embraced, i.e., created by God; rights derived from their Creator; that government secures its “just powers” from the consent of the governed. These were truly revolutionary, liberal and truly progressive concepts. The consequence was a new nation of people who came from every nation, from every race, from every ethnic background. It has been said they became
By CONRAD GREEN
a new race — Americans. The maturation of this nation, through all its struggles, mistakes and triumphs was to become a nation that brought more opportunity, blessing and inspiration to the world than had ever before experienced. Our politics today tends to use words such as liberal, progressive, conservatism, libertarian to define differences. Then, as those labels are applied, there seems to be a maniacal battle with angry, hateful words exchanged. In the process, people are divided though there is so much more that could unite us. Is it not time for Americans to reclaim the heritage of our race? We are a race of Americans that cross all boundaries of human conditions. Whether we are of different colors, different national backgrounds, different ethnic experiences, wealthy or poor, different genders, different ages, or any other divisive experience, we choose to believe that a human being has value, worth and deserves the opportunity to grow, to become more than they are. We believe that our leaders must be accountable,
transparent and committed to those core principles of life that have enabled the United States of America to be sacrificial, giving of resources, wealth and blood that others may be free. Let us recognize that
we, as Americans, need to rediscover who we really are and then earn the right granted by our heritage and the sacrifice of those who have gone before. Let us reflect the liberalism of our founders, create opportunity for individual

He will be use a wheelchair when he gets home. Meanwhile, Smith is charged with felony vehicular assault.
Shortly after arriving at the crash site at 8:08 a.m., Washington State Patrol troopers were informed the driver of a Ford F250 — Smith — smelled of intoxicants. Smith told aid workers he had looked down at his cell phone while driving, and when he looked up he sideswiped a box van before colliding head on with Wodenscheck’s car, according to a report by the Washington State Patrol. Smith allegedly failed sobriety tests at the scene while on a gurney, but refused to take a breath test to gauge his blood alcohol level.
Smith said that he drank four beers and a shot the previous night, according to the report. Smith reportedly told troopers he had been at his mother’s house and was driving home “to pick up more paint.” Before being booked into Kitsap County Jail, Smith was reportedly asked again if he wanted to take a breath test and refused. Troopers obtained a warrant for blood samples and blood was drawn at 11 a.m. the day of the crash. Detectives with the Washington State Patrol also requested that Smith’s cell phone be held for evidence.
Wodenscheck was on his way to work at AGS Stainless Inc. on Bainbridge Island when the crash occurred. Everyone at work was concerned, AGS Stainless owner Gary Giffin said. “He’s a great guy, a valued employee,” Giffin said of Wodenscheck. “[We’re] anxious for him to come back to work.” Messages on AGS Stainless’ Facebook were posted in support of Wodenscheck. Giffin said AGS employees have visited him at Harborview. Giffin said it’s “terrible that” Smith was allegedly drunk. The DUI

added “insult to injury right there.” But Wodenscheck’s coworkers are thinking of him and his job is waiting for him. Wodenscheck also has the support of his fiancée, who has been staying with him at Harborview. Wodenscheck proposed on Thanksgiving, according to his mother. The family is trying to figure out how they will deal with the medical bills, once they receive them. For now, Shelly Wodenscheck and the family are just trying to be encouraging, she said.

A look back at 2013 sports in North Kitsap
Ten of the more newsworthy or interesting sports stories covered by the Herald Velarde wins fourth title TACOMA — Jake Velarde was already on a list of elite wrestlers in Washington state when he stepped onto the mat Feb. 16 under the lights of the Tacoma Dome. The North Kitsap High School senior was one of 70 high school wrestlers to win three state championships, after his 4-1 victory over Joe Grable in 2012. On Feb. 16, however, Velarde put his name on another list of elite wrestlers after his 3-1 overtime Jake Velarde win over Fife’s Maverick Reddaway in the 138-pound division at the 2013 Mat Classic: Velarde became the 10th high school wrestler to win four consecutive state championships. To recognize the achievement, Velarde was the junior grand marshal in the Viking Fest Parade. Velarde is now wrestling for Old Dominion University.
Chisholm resigns from coaching after 22 years POULSBO — Tony Chisholm resigned from his position as head coach of the North Kitsap High School varsity basketball team March 1. Chisholm coached in the North Kitsap School District for about 22 years. In 1991, Chisholm began his coaching career as an assistant with the NKHS girls junior varsity program. Two years later, Chisholm took the head boys basketball spot at
Kingston Junior High — now Kingston Middle School — and was asked to take the lead position with the girls squad as well. After 13 years and three league titles with those programs, Chisholm transferred in 2006 to his position atop the boys program at North Kitsap High School. He timed the move to coincide with his son Taylor’s progres- Tony Chisholm sion from junior high to high school. Chisholm led the Vikings to the state tournament in 2009, the first time since 2005.
NK grad vies for spot on U.S. Bobsled Team POULSBO — Dakarai Kongela of Poulsbo was on his way to a spot on the U.S. bobsled team in the 2014 Olympics. Kongela, a graduate of North Kitsap High School, switched from track to bobsled while at George Fox University, and is now a member of Team USA. In the 2012-13 North American Cup season, as brakeman for Jake Peterson in twoman bobsled, he has a silver, a bronze, and two fifthplace Dakarai finishes. Kongela As push athlete in four-man, he has a gold, two silvers, two fourths, a fifth and a sixth. Selections to the Olympic team, based on points, will be announced in January.
Conley resigns as Bucs basketball coach KINGSTON — When
Blake Conley stepped onto the hardwood for winter sports in 2013, it wasn’t with the Kingston Buccaneers. Conley accepted a teaching and coaching position at Union High School. It’s an opportunity he couldn’t pass up. “It was definitely really hard to leave the kids and the community and the school and everything we did there,” Conley said. However, he could not pass up the chance to teach and coach in a high school such as Union, he said. Blake Conley With the move to Camas, Conley also leaves his teaching position at Chief Kitsap Academy. He enjoyed the small class sizes and seeing students go from struggling to shining in school. Under Conley’s direction, the Bucs program turned around after a rough startup to take third at the 2A State Tournament in 2011 and 2012. Conley estimated his record as head coach was 74-32.
Relay team breaks 28-year-old record POULSBO — The time of 2 minutes, 3.38 seconds hung on the wall of the North Kitsap Community Pool for nearly three decades. The time was a record set by the 1985 North Kitsap High School 200 Medley relay team and placed on the North Kitsap swim team’s record board. The record was one of the school’s oldest swim records — until Sept. 26, anyway. The 1985 record was bested with a time of 2:02.98 during the Vikings’ home swim meet against the Klahowya Eagles. It’s a goal the swimmers were trying to meet since 2012. “It felt pretty awesome,” Serita Solis said of breaking the record. At first the team was

The record was held by Michelle Arnold, Jennifer Smith, Marianne McDowell, and Debbie Berry.
Poulsbo runner breaks marathon record POULSBO — As she reflected back on previous events, Kirsten Casey said she believes the Oct. 13 Poulsbo Marathon was the fastest marathon she ever ran. However, the 1997 North Kitsap High School graduate doesn’t concern herself too much with records, and didn’t even wear a watch to keep track of her time Sunday. Kirsten Casey She also didn’t know just how fast she finished the Poulsbo Marathon. “I could tell I was running well,” the 34-year-old said. “I was feeling good, and never felt like I was going super slow.” As Casey crossed the finish line on the North Kitsap track, she quickly learned just how fast she ran the 26.2-mile course. Casey finished the marathon in 3 hours 28 minutes
38 seconds, earning the fastest time for a female runner in the Poulsbo Marathon. The marathon is in its fourth year.
Longtime rivals met as senior QBs POULSBO — The rivalry between North Kitsap’s Cody Blackmore and Kingston’s Bobby Reece went back before the two entered high school. Having faced each other on the gridiron since Pee Wee football, the two varsity quarterbacks are familiar with adversity. And on Oct. 25, for the first time in their senior year, the quarterbacks from Kingston and North Kitsap high schools will go headto-head. “We’re finally seniors and we’re getting to play against each other,” Blackmore said before the game. The Bucs and Vikings were tied in conference play; the teams are 5-0. The Bucs ended up advancing to the first round of the State playoffs. The Vikings were elminated in Districts.
Ramsey, NK team finish in top 10 at state XC meet PASCO — Kathleen Ramsey went to the 2A State Championship cross country meet without any expectations. Her finish in the top 10 of 2A runners is alright with her. “The race went pretty well,” Ramsey said. Ramsey, a senior at
North Kitsap High School, finished eighth with a time of 19 minutes 9.09 seconds. She said the pace was consistent; the leaders of the race took an early lead and held it. Burlington-Edison’s RaynJoy Norton took first in the girls’ race, finishing in 17:58.16. Though Ramsey was the only North Kitsap girl to finish individually, the team as a whole finished ninth overall (259). Clara Lund took 43rd (20:15.34); Katrina Weinmann took 70th (20:41.23); Sarah Zimmerman took 113th (21:51.69); Marissa Pittman took 125th (22:29.23); Megu Baba took 132nd (22:54.65); Maria Warns took 137th (23:43.52).
Vikes volleyball places 5th at State POULSBO — Knowing they would be up against tough competition, the North Kitsap Vikings weren’t surprised how many sets they had to play at the 2A State Volleyball Championships Nov. 15-16. By the end of the first day of the tournament, the Vikings had played eight sets. After a long day of competitive play, the Vikings were tired going into the second day of the tournament. “We were all exhausted playing those competitive matches,” North Kitsap junior co-captain Sarah Holt said. The varsity team played 18 sets in four matches over two days. Those four See SPORTS, Page A9

Richard Sherman’s ‘greatest hits’ of 2012-13
D
epending on your perspective, Richard Sherman is either best known as one of the NFL’s top cornerbacks, or as one of the NFL’s biggest talkers. In reality, he is both. Sherman’s standout play is why he’s in the spotlight in the first place, but his brashness/ confidence/cockiness/whatever you want to call it is also a big part of who he is. On the field, Sherman uses his trash talk to get into an opponent’s head — we’re looking at you, Steve Smith — and off the field he uses it to build his brand. Here we offer a small sampling of Sherman’s greatest hits, so to speak: “U Mad Bro?” — Oct. 14, 2012. Sherman, via Twitter, with his now-signature line pasted over a picture of New England quarterback Tom Brady following a Seahawks win over the Patriots. “Sometimes, man, when the bully gets bullied, that’s how it happens.”
— Oct. 24, 2012. Sherman responding to 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh’s complaints about the physical play of Seattle’s defensive backs. “In my 24 years of life, I’m better at life than you.” — March 7, 2013. The money shot from a sometimes hilarious, sometimes awkward takedown of ESPN’s resident instigator, Skip Bayless, during an appearance on “First Take.” “It helps when you don’t listen to the idiots in the draft room. When you don’t listen to the idiots, you find players like Jeremy Lane and Byron Maxwell and myself and Kam Chancellor, the list goes on, Russell Wilson. But if you sit there and listen to the idiots like Mel Kiper and Todd McShay and things like that, you miss a lot of good players.” — Dec. 19, 2013. Sherman explaining why the Seahawks have been able to find so many steals in the draft.
“I don’t want to be an island. I want to be more of a tourist attraction. You stop here, I take your money and you go.” — Nov. 14. 2013. Sherman when asked if he takes it as a sign of respect that teams are throwing away from him, which is how cornerback Darrelle Revis earned the nickname “Revis Island.” “ I ’ v e been proud of you since you spurned us. I told you, I didn’t want you to go down that path, I’m proud of you, boy.” — Jan. 6, 2013. Sherman, who was mic’d up, to Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III following a playoff win, a reference to the fact that Sherman

Sherman to Sports Radio KJR’s Curtis Crabtree following his first NFL start, a game in which he suffered a concussion early and kept playing, according to an article he wrote this season for TheMMQB.com. “I’m still a fifthround pick last I checked. That will never go away.” — Dec. 27, 2012. Sherman describing why he’ll always play with a chip on his shoulder, even after gaining recognition as one of the NFL’s best cornerbacks. “I wanted to make a statement to my city. I’m from Compton (Calif.), and it’s hard for people to understand that you can
be an athlete and have high academic standards and achieve high academic things. So, I really wanted to make that known to people that you can go to Stanford from Compton.” — April 30, 2011. Sherman on the day he was drafted, explaining why he went to Stanford despite also having an offer from USC. “He’s an incredibly perspicacious guy.” — Oct. 3, 2013. Sherman, describing former Stanford teammate and current Colts quarterback Andrew Luck, who a day earlier had described Sherman as vociferous. In the game of vocabulary one-upmanship, Sherman’s description of Luck means, “having or showing an ability to notice and understand things that are difficult or not obvious.” — Thanks to the Herald’s sis-

KINGSTON — Sean Osborn set out on an icy, snowy road to deliver some holiday cheer to Gordon Elementary School teachers early Dec. 20. He was derailed by Mother Nature. Osborn, an owner of The Coffee Box at the Kingston ferry landing, had personalized bags of coffee for all the teachers — a high-end roast, he said — and drove out to deliver them. (His wife, Rachel, is principal of Gordon.) His car slid off Apple Tree Point Road and rolled “a half dozen times” down the embankment, he said. Osborn got out through the sunroof and hiked a half-mile home, where he called 9-1-1. It was no small ordeal. According to Osborn, the crash occurred about 6:30 a.m. According to sheriff’s spokesman Scott Wilson, 9-1-1 got the call from Osborn at 7:48 a.m. Because of road conditions, firefighters and paramedics were only able to drive to about the point where Osborn’s car went off the roadway. “They still put on all their equipment and walked down the hill [to his house],” Osborn said. “Those guys are something.” Osborn had hoped to

POULSBO — The City Council’s Dec. 18 agenda was light, as it was the final meeting of the year. But the meeting soon changed its tone, with one last treat for residents before closing. “It’s a gift to the community from the city,” said Councilwoman Connie Lord, who organized a concert with the Bremerton Symphony Youth Orchestra in the council chambers following the City Council meeting. Lord serves on the board of the Bremerton Symphony Association, and is also the association’s secretary. She said the concert was a chance to do something special at the end of the year, as well as give the youth some exposure in North Kitsap. “They are good, they are really good,” Lord said. “And it’s a way for them to have their talent showcased.” Three select groups — brass, winds, and strings — from the youth orchestra performed a range of holiday tunes from “Deck the Halls” to “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.” Lord came to City Hall early that night to decorate the chamber with gar-

Kith&Kin $22K so far for Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund is used to meet human needs in the Greater Poulsbo area POULSBO — Donations to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund have passed last year’s to-date mark. But with less than two weeks remaining, the total is about $15,000 short of goal. As of Dec. 26, donations totalled $22,726. That’s slightly ahead of last year’s to-date total of $21,201. The fundraising goal is $35,000. North Kitsap Fishline and St. Vincent de Paul use most of the funds to provide food, emergency shelter and emergency financial assistance to North Kitsap residents in need. In addition, fund proceeds are used by the Poulsbo Noon Lions Club to provide Christmas food baskets for 100 local
families. A reserve account is maintained for “major catastrophes” that might occur during the year, fund chairman John Macdonald said. Because of donations to the Poulsbo Lions/Raab Foundation Bellringer Fund, “We’re able to stretch what we’re doing for people in crisis — whether it’s paying rent, mortgage, or utilities,” said Rae Rodriguez, Fishline’s client services manager. “It used to be that folks would come in because of an issue, now it’s because of multiple issues. We’ve been in crisis mode for a couple of years, and we’ve probably tripled our client load since then.” The fund is a longtime Poulsbo tradition. It was founded by the late Frank and Mabel Raab — he was mayor from 1960-69 — as a way for neighbors to help each other during emergencies. The Poulsbo Noon Lions Club administers the fund for the Raab Foundation. Donations are accepted

POULSBO — After months of construction, the former Voodiez site on Poulsbo’s Front Street has sprouted the newest addition to downtown. The building that was formerly home to Voodiez Bar and Grill was nearly 100 years old and showing its age before it was torn down in early 2013. With its tear down and construction of a new building, Blue Bay Holdings has taken the site in a whole new direction, converting it from restaurant space, into retail shops. The new building is not yet finished and owners do not know when its doors will open for business. What is known, however, is what will go into the new structure. Boomer’s Pet Boutique
is slated to move into the main floor, according to officials with Blue Bay Holdings, the property’s owner. Boomer’s is currently located just down the block on Front Street. Retail, office and possibly restaurant space will occupy the second floor of the building. The new building will also increase in size — compared to the old structure — by 41 percent. The main floor spans 2,548 square feet, with the second floor of 1,034 square feet. The main floor’s anchor retail space is 1,833 square feet. The second floor will house three more retail spaces while the roof will boast a 1,290-square-foot deck with a fireplace and views of waterfront park.

Suquamish youth are recipients of new violins Island program provides instruments to budding musicians BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
BAINBRIDGE — The tiny practice violins, made of wood and paper, sat on display as if they were fragile relics of a bygone era as the aspiring young musicians stepped on stage. One by one, the Suquamish youth said goodbye to the delicate vessels that had carried them so far. It was time to receive the real thing. Each of the children were given a brand-new violin, shiny and perfect, sized just right for the small and eager arms for which they were bound. The recent presentation was due to a collective effort of music education partnerships between the Suquamish Tribal Council, the Island Music Guild and the Kids In Concert program. During a concert event Dec. 18, the program directors presented 14 children from the tribe with actual violins after having trained them for several weeks with mock instruments. “Three years ago my daughter, Michelle, and I started a program called Kids In Concert,” explained island resident and program co-founder Roy Naden. “We wanted to try and
assist those who were not given some of the opportunities that others were. “That doesn’t apply much to most of the kids on Bainbridge Island, but for those just across the bridge in the Suquamish Tribe, it may,” he said Based on the El Sistema music education program originating in Venezuela, Kids In Concert began working with tribal council leaders and educators to select 14 children — ages 4 to 11 — and have them transported three times a week to a practice space provided by the Island Music Guild, and teach them how to play the violin. Why start with the violin? “The violin is kind of the foundation of the orchestra,” explained Michelle Naden, Kids In Concert director. “We’re just starting where we start. Next fall we hope to include a bass and four cellos,” she said. “If we had people who were specializing in trumpets or woodwinds, we could start there, too.” The people specializing in string instruments are the musically inclined volunteers of the program — young adults and more experienced musicians from Bainbridge and Poulsbo — who act as mentors to the students and teach them the basics of their newly acquired instruments. Those efforts are led and coordinated by the program’s artistic director Laura Milleson. After a lifetime dedicated to
“Any time the [children] get a chance to watch the instruments, or hear the instruments, they’re just spellbound ... At this age if they learn ... they’ll become very enamored and very connected to music” — Michelle Naden
music and music education Milleson has worked as an improvisational musician for Clean Slate Improv, an accompanist for the Seattle Girl’s Choir, director for a Seattle children’s choir program, a chamber ensemble coach and an orchestral accompanist. Having helped to construct and decorate mock violins out of wood and paper, the Kids In Concert students practice proper handling, posture and care of the instrument for seven weeks before being presented with the real thing. “They have been practicing how to treat and how to hold them,” Ron Naden said to the gathered parents and siblings at the concert. “And tonight they’ll get the real thing. We have some little tiny violins, you wouldn’t believe how little they are.”
The goal of the program is continued education and expansion to eventually include other instruments in this, the very beginning of a youth orchestra. The violins themselves, each costing approximately $250, are paid for by grants and individual donations acquired by the Kids In Concert program, one of 40 such programs in the budding movement here in this country. “We’ve been operating for three years in a very small way,” said Ron Naden. “Making our way slowly to ingratiate ourselves with the tribe. And the tribe, through their education department, has given us a tremendous amount of support and enthusiasm.” The enthusiasm comes, not just from the adults involved, but also the children in the program. “Any time they get a chance to watch the instruments, or hear the instruments, they’re just spellbound,” Michelle Naden said of the students. “It doesn’t matter if it’s Mozart or ‘Do-Re-Mi.’ At this age if they learn, or just become exposed to it, they’ll become very enamored and very connected to music.” Of course, the benefits of music education have been widely written about, even as many such programs have been cut from school budgets across the country. However, thanks to the collaborative work of Suquamish Tribe and the musically inclined volunteers of Bainbridge Island,
it seems a safe assumption that these children will have music in their lives for quite some time. The lessons are planned to continue three days a week as the children get better and more accomplished musically. “We hope to be with these kids for years,” Naden said. “And each year they will
develop to the next level and the next stage.” To learn more about Kids In Concert, or to learn of future volunteer opportunities with the program, visit www.kidsinconcert.org or call the program director at 206-849-5544.

he beginning of a new month in Kitsap marks the change over for many local art galleries. And in January, Bainbridge Arts & Crafts has something special in mind. “We’re starting our year on a very elevated note,” said BAC Publicist Lindsay Masters. “The Gentlemen of Northwest Art” exhibit starts on Jan. 3. It will feature the work of three artists: sculptor Phillip Levine, painter Norman Lundin and sculptor Gerard Tsutakawa. An artist reception will be from 6-8 p.m. on Jan. 3, during the First Friday Artwalk in downtown Winslow on Bainbridge Island. “This is a big exhibition for BAC and for Bainbridge,” she said. Levine and Tsutakawa are both accomplished sculptors, whose styles are unique from one another. Levine’s work often includes the human form, either alone or interacting with a set. The sculptures also often interact with light and shadows. Tsutakawa work is grounded more in the exploration of three-dimensional shapes, and negative space. Visitors to Safeco Field will recognize his sculpture of a bronze baseball mitt. Lundin’s paintings range from expansive landscapes interacting with human development — such as a road weaving through a field — to seemingly empty rooms, filled with the remnants of activity. Bainbridge Arts & Crafts is located at 151 Winslow Way East, Bainbridge Island.

One NW grape is fading fast into obscurity Lemberger Wine is both intriguing, and disappearing from the NW
L
emberger, a red wine that once was a rising star in the early Washington wine industry, is slowly fading into obscurity. Though it’s a wine that everyone seems to love, Lemberger’s fortunes always have been tied to its unfortunate name, a moniker that evokes thoughts of stinky cheese rather than a deliciously smooth and fruity red wine. Today, fewer than a dozen Washington wineries make Lemberger, and acreage in Washington has dwindled to perhaps 85. “I think it’s conceivable that it could go, more or less, extinct” in Washington, said Scott Williams, winemaker for Kiona Vineyards and Winery on Red Mountain. Williams, whose father, John, planted Lemberger in 1976, has 17 acres — likely the largest block in Washington, perhaps even North America. He still farms those original two acres, as well as plantings he made in 1983 and 1998. From those, he makes 3,000 cases that he sells for $15 per bottle. “Selling it is like rolling rocks uphill,” he told Great Northwest Wine. “There’s a market for us for about 3,000 cases.”

Lemberger is grown in many Central European countries, including Austria, Germany and the Czech Republic. It got its name not from the German cheese, but rather from the Slovenian town of Lemberg. Wines from Lemberger grapes are often smooth, rich and approachable. The first plantings of Lemberger in Washington were in 1941 by Dr. Walter Clore, a Washington State University researcher based in the Yakima Valley town of Prosser. “He actually arranged to have it imported from British Columbia for his varietal trials,” said Wade Wolfe, owner and winemaker at Thurston Wolfe in Prosser. Wolfe makes 100 cases of Lemberger and 130 cases of Lemberger rosé, called Second Chance Rosé. “It makes the best rosé in the world,” Wolfe said. He also includes Lemberger in a blend called Dr. Wolfe’s Family Red. Wolfe remembers Hogue Cellars making it up until 1996. Then the Prosser winery brought it back for a time under its Genesis label, using grapes from Red Willow Vineyard. Washington wineries that now make Lemberger also include Olympic
Andy Perdue / Great Northwest Wines
Cellars in Sequim, Whidbey Island Winery in Langley, Alexandria Nicole Cellars in Prosser, FairWinds Winery in Port Townsend, and Kana Winery in Yakima. Owen Roe in Oregon uses Washington Lemberger in one of its blends, and Camas Prairie Winery in Moscow, Idaho, also makes Lemberger from Washington grapes. Williams said one reason for Lemberger’s demise has been the rise of Syrah, which has a more appealing name and works equally well as a blending wine. “It has been supplanted by Syrah,” Williams said. “When you look at wineries’ blends, it’s a lot of Syrah, so most of the acreage of Lemberger that was finding a home as a blend has been pushed out.” Mike Sauer, owner of Red Willow Vineyard
in the western Yakima Valley, planted Lemberger in 1979, taking his direction from Clore. He planted more in 1997, but he tore out his old block in 2011, replanting with Cabernet Sauvignon. In the Horse Heaven Hills, grape grower Paul Champoux still has four acres of Lemberger at his famed Champoux Vineyards. When he purchased the vineyard in the mid-1990s, there were 12 acres that had been planted in 1981, much of which has been taken out through the years. One viticultural issue with Lemberger is leaf roll virus, something that seems to be inherent to the variety. Leaf roll causes a vine’s leaves to turn prematurely red during the growing season, which essentially slows or stops photosynthesis. Though every single

your head around the name.” Wolfe said he believes the rising interest in esoteric varieties such as Grüner Veltliner and Albariño could fuel a mild rebirth in Lemberger. But he isn’t holding out hope. “I’m not aware of anybody who has planted it recently, and it’s gradually being pulled out,” Wolfe said. Indeed, he continues to make it each year only after a healthy debate. “I do it to honor Walt,” he said. “I bottled my 2012 on Monday, so I’ll have it at least for another year.” Ironically, the grape is finding increased interest across the country in the Finger Lakes region of New York. Jim Trezise, president of the New York Wine & Grape Foundation, said Lemberger competes with Cabernet Franc as the region’s top red variety.
Lemberger vine in the state apparently is infected with leaf roll virus, it doesn’t stop the variety from producing a healthy crop each year. Bill Powers, owner of Powers Winery and Badger Mountain Vineyards in Kennewick, made Lemberger for about a decade, both as a table wine and a fortified dessert wine. “I loved the wine,” Powers said. “But it was a hard sell. In the tasting room, it sold well, but to get space in a major chain was impossible. You were just wasting your breath.” So what could turn around the fortunes of Lemberger in Washington? First would be a name change. “The only real problem is the name,” Williams said. “If you’re not openminded, you won’t get

People helping pets...pets helping people. Emmie is a 3yr old shorthaired dilute calico who came to us on our latest Ocean Shores transport. She is a very sweet girl who’d won the hearts of staff and volunteers alike at the shelter where she was. She gets along with the other cats though she makes sure they know she is in charge first. Emmie loves people. She has been primarily indoors. She’ll be at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping she gets a new home for the Holidays. 1-888-558-PAWS • www.northkitsappaws.org

Where to make your midnight toast By Richard D. Oxley Kitsap Week
I
t may be a simple date on a calendar or a mere change of a single digit to some, but for many the start of a new year bears the notion of a fresh start. Whatever the reason may be, a new year’s resolution, to personally grow along with the lengthening days, or to move past mistakes … perhaps ones made on New Year’s Eve. The holiday is a time to reflect, to look forward, and to celebrate. This New Year’s Eve, Kitsap will celebrate in an array of ways — from pub parties to bingo with friends. Whatever your preference, there’s something to do this Dec. 31.

aroundkitsap A look at what’s happening in Kitsap’s communities.
Bainbridge island Review Youth group opens shop: One group of young islanders took it upon themselves to open a holiday boutique in time for the shopping season — while also simultaneously helping educate girls in developing countries around the world. Bainbridge Island’s seventh-grade girls’ Wyldlife group opened a two-day “pop-up shop” on Winslow Way on Dec. 20 and 21. The event, dubbed Island Girl Rising, was inspired by the recent “Girl Rising” documentary showing, hosted by the Bainbridge High School Social Justice League last October. All of the proceeds will be donated to the 10x10 Fund for Girls’ Education, a charity started in collaboration with the documentary. Wyldlife is a nondenominational Christian youth group and talking circle for middle school age students. Made up of 16 girls, the group has worked since October to produce gifts worth selling and giving. They range from handembroidered cards to jewelry and ornaments. — BainbridgeReview.com
Bremerton Patriot Mayor fires financial director: In a city hall shakeup that took many by surprise, Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent fired her director of financial services, Becky Hasart, on Dec. 19. Lent, though, said the move didn’t come out of left field. “We have had a conversation the last few months about financial services so it didn’t come as a surprise,” Lent said, noting that Human Resources was recently removed from Hasart’s portfolio and placed under City Attorney Roger Lubovich. “Becky came in and did exactly what I wanted her to do,” Lent said. “There are cities two and three times our size that are looking for finance directors and I’m going to give her a glowing letter of recommendation.” Messages left with Hasart Friday morning for comment were not immediately returned. Lent said that removing Human Resources from under the direction of Hasart was a first step in reorganiz-
ing and streamlining city hall. Lent also hopes to figure out a way to make the City Clerk position, which also oversees parking issues and the Humane Society, a part of Lubovich’s legal department. Lent said her next step will be putting together a new job description for a financial services director that will be advertised in January. In the meantime, Cathy Johnson, Hasart’s former assistant, will take over as interim Financial Services Director. Hasart was Lent’s third Financial Services Director in her first term. Lent fired Andy Parks shortly after taking office and hired former county treasurer Barbara Stephenson, who retired a short time later. Before Lent hired Hasart, she worked in Washougal just outside Vancouver along the Columbia River. — BremertonPatriot.com
Central Kitsap Reporter Letters to Santa raise money for charity: Santa will be busy this week reading the nearly 5,000 letters written by Cougar Valley Elementary students who participated in a special campaign to raise money for charity. The letters were part of Macy’s Believe campaign, which donates $1 per letter to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Macy’s has pledged to donate up to $1 million toward the foundation this year. At the end of the day on Dec. 17, students had written 4,984 letters which means nearly $5,000 will be donated by the students of just one school. Two students alone wrote 630 letters between the both of them. — CentralKitsapReporter. com

Cougar Valley Elementary students wrote 4,984 letters to Santa as part of Macy’s Believe campaign. Macy’s will donate $1 per letter to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Seraine Page ents and get them to the intended recipients. The trees held gift requests from the area’s children in need. A total of 243 out of 283 children received gifts in response to the trees. Fishline will purchase gifts for the remaining 40.
Donation boxes for toys, such as the boxes at City Hall or at the North Kitsap Herald, helped to provide presents for more children — a total of 120 to be exact, according to Rodriguez. “(The) total number of children for Christmas Child
2013 is approximately 403,” Rodriguez said. “But it could be higher as we serve last minute walk-in clients.” — NorthKitsapHerald.com
Angel sworn in: More than 60 people packed into a Kitsap County courtroom to watch as Jan Angel was sworn in as the first Republican woman to represent the 26th Legislative District in the state Senate, Dec. 17. Angel, who served as the district’s state representative since 2009, defeated Sen. Nathan Schlicher. D-Gig Harbor, in the November general election. The race between the two candidates was the most expensive Senate race in state history, at about $3 million. Angel thanked those in attendance for their support. “This road has been a tough one and it ended up being the most expensive race in the history of the state Legislator,” Angel said. “But every one of you helped get this car over the finish line. And I thank you so much.” — PortOrchardIndependent.com

North Kitsap Herald Fishline charity collects toys for children: Poulsbo’s City Hall wasn’t the only location where anonymous givers visited this season. Giving trees and toy boxes were spread throughout the community to collect presents for the area’s children. Fishline’s Giving Trees have come down. But for the food bank and charitable service, the job isn’t finished. “The community response was generously overwhelming,” said Raelenea Rodriguez of North Kitsap Fishline.

NW Wine
Wade Wolfe, of Thurston Wolfe Winery in Prosser, walks through a vineyard in Horse Heaven Hills. Wolfe uses Lemberger in three different wines.
Continued from page 5 “People are very high on it here,” he told Great Northwest Wine. “Lemberger is regarded very highly by people in the Finger Lakes. It’s definitely on the rise.” He said Lemberger and Cab Franc are winterhardy varieties that can handle the region’s cold conditions and still ripen nicely. “Year in and year out, it makes a quality wine,” he said. — Andy Perdue is editor of Great Northwest Wine.
