Kitsap tourism outlook is bright, director says Tourism worth $500-$700 million to Kitsap County, provides 6,700 jobs BY CHRIS TUCKER CTUCKER@CENTRALKITSAPREPORTER.COM
NEWS Visit Kitsap presents 2015 Tourism Vision Awards
SILVERDALE – Twenty years ago tourism wasn’t much of an economic factor on the Kitsap Peninsula, said Patricia Graf-Hoke, executive director of Visit Kitsap Peninsula. Kitsap was seen as a gateway to other places, she said, not as a destination
unto itself. But “that’s changed,” Graf-Hoke said, in part due to the growth of the Puget Sound region. “We have really, truly become a major destination.” “It’s estimated that the tourism industry in Kitsap County is $500$700 million dollars. It’s responsible for about 6,700 jobs and it is a growth

West Sound Alliance aims to improve traffic flow BY CHRIS TUCKER
CTUCKER@CENTRALKITSAPREPORTER.COM
More than $100 million worth of possible transportation improvements including a Belfair bypass, improvments to State Route 305 and SR 16 were discussed at a recent Kitsap Business Forum meeting. John Powers, executive director of the Kitsap Economic Development
Alliance, said the highway and infrastructure package was being considered by the state legislature now. The $100 million worth of projects in the Senate Transportation Package as of March 4 was part of a larger, $470 million, 30-point wish list of transportation improvements that the West Sound Alliance felt could improve traffic flow. WSA is a partnership among 19
jurisdictions and economic development organizations in Mason, Pierce and Kitsap counties that supports transportation improvements in the west sound region. Powers said transportation investments were needed to support the area’s shipbuilding, technology and other industries and make sure the region remains economically vibrant. Improved traffic flow was the key to
that aim. Over 60,000 people commuted to and from the west sound on a daily basis, Powers said, many of which work at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard, which employs one third of the maritime workers in the state. About 40,000 of the commuters are commuting away from Kitsap County SEE WEST SOUND ALLIANCE, A9

BREMERTON – The Bremerton School District is considering measures to ease transitions for military children entering the district. The Military Interstate Compact is a nationwide program that reduces some of the problems for students transferring to new states, such as enrollment, eligibility, placement and graduation, according to Silvia Klatman, Naval Base Kitsap public affairs officer. “In addition, the Compact provides for a detailed governance structure at both the state and national levels with built-in enforcement and compliance mechanisms,” Klatman said. The compact only applies to public schools. Adopting the compact would change a number of standards for transferring military children, including transfer records, course sequencing, graduation requirements and exit testing. The school board heard a presentation from Dr. Heather Carrell, a school liaison with the Navy, on the compact March 19.
Crash closes intersection BY PETER O’CAIN POCAIN@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
BREMERTON – The intersection of Sixth Street and Naval Avenue was closed from about 6-7 p.m. March 16 following a two-car collision. Police say a 32-year-old Bremerton woman driving a 1991 Jaguar westbound on Sixth Street attempted to turn left onto Naval Avenue and then collided with an eastbound 2013 Dodge driven by a 34-year-old Bremerton woman. Both women were hospitalized. Bremerton Police did not have an update on their condition at press time. The two vehicles were impounded because the drivers were taken to the hospital. During an inventory of the vehicles, police found alcohol and possible narcotics in the Jaguar. Police spoke with the driver at the hospital and determined that impairment was not a factor in the accident.

County violated former deputy fire marshal’s veterans employment rights TACOMA — A jury for the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington found Kitsap County liable for violating the rights of a returning service member, according to a March 16 press release by attorney Matthew Z. Crotty, of Crotty & Sons Law Firm, PLLC. In 2009, Craig Hanson, a Kitsap County deputy fire marshal was ordered to active duty with the Washington Army National Guard. Hanson served three years as an Infantryman and sergeant first class, including a deployment to Iraq. Hanson attempted to return to full employment at the fire marshal’s office in December 2012 after his military duty ended. Shortly after his return Hanson felt compelled to file complaints with his union, his employer and the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve. The complaints stem from his return to work when Hanson was asked by his supervisor if he planned to end his National Guard service. Hanson claimed that as a result of not committing to leave the National Guard he
was demoted and denied the basic equipment he needed to do his fire marshal work. In August 2013, Hanson resigned and filed his case in federal court. Hanson’s trial focused on his claims that he was discriminated against when he did not resign from the National Guard and further retaliated against after he complained about that discrimination. The claims were brought under the federal veterans’ reemployment rights law, known as the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act or USERRA and the Washington Law Against Discrimination. In an earlier proceeding, Judge Robert Bryan found Kitsap County had violated another provision of USERRA when it denied Hanson proper retirement contributions for the periods of his military service. The two week trial began on March 2 and the jury returned a verdict in favor of Hanson on his discrimination and retaliation claim, and separately found that the actions of Kitsap County were willful. “I knew what they were doing was wrong and I am so
thankful the jury decided to hold Kitsap County accountable. I just hope this verdict will serve as a reminder to Kitsap County officials and others, so they respect the rights of my fellow veterans,” said Hanson in response to the verdict. Hanson was represented by the Crotty & Son Law Firm PLLC, Law Office of Thomas G. Jarrard PLLC and Workland & Witherspoon, Spokane-based law firms whose practices focus on assisting veterans in employment matters. Kitsap County was represented at trial by its own civil prosecutors, Jacqueline Aufderheide, Debra Boe and Christine Palmer. Crotty said Hanson will receive approximately $65,000 or possibly more. “The finding of the county’s willful violation of the law may allow some (or all) of those damages to be doubled,” said Crotty, a lieutenant colonel in the Washington Army National Guard and the commander of the 341st Military Intelligence Battalion. He said the law allows for Hanson’s attorneys to ask the

Get No Child Left Behind waiver, funds back S
chool districts across the state could regain control of about $40 million in federal funding if the state House and governor agree to a bill passed March 11 by the Senate. When the Legislature balked at a requirement last year that school districts use student test scores in teacher evaluations, the state lost its waiver for part of the federal No Child Left Behind education law. More than 1,900 of the state’s 2,200 school districts lost control over that money. The money stayed within the districts but was removed from each district’s oversight and used for private tutoring and other services. Some Democrats and the state’s teachers union, the Washington Education Association, opposed last year’s bill, as well as this year’s, over concerns that such a requirement doesn’t recognize the differences among school districts and other factors in student performance, puts too much emphasis on a testing regime that monopolizes class time, and doesn’t give teachers fair consideration in their performance. Senate Bill 5748 differs from last year’s legislation in that it would put off the requirement to use test scores in teacher evaluations for a year and would allow school districts to negotiate with local teachers unions on how much weight the scores would be given in evaluations. Neither compromise would prevent or delay restoration of the NCLB waiver. Those compromises, for example, found support with Sen. Steve Hobbs, D-Lake Stevens, who voted against last year’s bill, and should also find more support among House Democrats this year. At the same time, the U.S. Senate is taking a bipartisan look at reforms to No Child Left Behind, itself, led by Sen. Patty Murray, D-Washington, and Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tennessee. Both said SEE OPINION, A9

Higher minimum wage misses the target
W
ashington has My Turn the nation’s highest minimum wage at $9.47 an hour and now the state legislature wants to hike it to $12. Seattle Mayor Ed Murray wants to boost it to $15 to go in step with the SeaTac initiative, which voters barely approved last year. The state’s minimum wage has been adjusted Don Brunell annually since 2001, based on a Seattle-area cost of living index. From 2008 through 2013, Washington’s minimum wage increased more than 14 percent. Washington voters thought passing an initiative 14 years ago would make life better for the poor and low income families, but has it? Stanford economics professor Thomas MaCurdy says, in effect, “not so much.” MaCurdy, a senior fellow at the Hoover Institute, analyzed the impact when Congress raised the national minimum wage in 1996 from $4.25 to $5.15. That would be comparable to raising the current minimum wage from $7.25 to $8.80. MaCurdy says that even though the increase happened 19 years ago, the principal is the same today. In late February, he wrote in the Wall Street Journal: “The results show the failure of minimum-wage hikes as an antipoverty policy.” MaCurdy found that a higher minimum wage leads to higher prices, a burden that falls disproportionately on the low-income families it was intended to help. He calls the minimum wage a “stealth tax” that hurts low-income families most. “My analysis concludes that more poor families were losers than winners from the 1996 hike in the minimum wage. Nearly one in five low-income families benefited, but all low-income families paid for the increase through higher prices.” The higher prices, in other words, resembled a regressive value-added or sales, tax. This is sharply contrary
to normal tax policy. A typical state sales tax has a uniform rate—but with necessities such as food excluded, expressly to reduce the effective tax rate for people with lower incomes. MaCurdy credits private sector employers who raise wages on their own. For example, in Seattle, Dick’s Drive-in Restaurants has consistently provided jobs above minimum wage. Jasmine Donovan, the granddaughter of Dick’s co-founder Dick Spady, told the Seattle Times last August: “For more than 60 years, Dick’s Drive-In has strongly supported high wages and generous benefits. Our employees start at $10.25 an hour — well above our state’s highest-in-the-nation minimum wage — receive regular merit raises, excellent health insurance, $22,000 in scholarships over four years, child-care assistance, bonuses, paid vacations, a 401(k) retirement plan with a 50 percent employer match, paid volunteer time at local charities and other great benefits.” Raising the base wage to $15 an hour would cost Dick’s $1.5 million which would be reflected in the price of hamburgers, fries and milk shakes. Of course, we wouldn’t be talking about hiking the minimum wage if the economy were stronger. In a robust economy, employers compete for workers by offering higher wages and benefits. In a weak economy, wages stagnate. Then there is the issue of unemployment. The state reports that in January, 95 percent of the counties in Washington had unemployment rates above the national average. Almost one third of our state’s counties posted double-digit unemployment. If people can’t find a job at $9.47 per hour, how will they find work at $12 per hour? There is a better way. Donovan proposed an alternative called a “smart wage,” which increases as employees improve their education and skills. If we truly want to help people move up the economic ladder, isn’t it better to provide incentives that reward them for getting the education and skills they’ll need in order to succeed? The other alternative is fewer jobs and lost opportunities.

From left is Council President Tim Katona, Junior Shore SOY LS2(SS) Michael Porterfield, Junior Sea SOY YN2(SS) Cody Browder, Shore SOY, NC1(SCW/FMF) Sara Dozier and Sea SOY MM1(SS) Christopher Smith. Katona presented each awardee with a soaring eagle statuette engraved with their names. Senior Navy leaders representing each awardee’s respective command were present to honor the 2014 stand-outs for their hard work and individual efforts, including the Submarine Group 9 Commander, Rear Adm. Dave Kriete. Commander Michael Yesunas, Commanding Officer of Naval Magazine Indian Island, was the guest speaker. CSG-9 is the flag-level organization overseeing all submarine activity in the Pacific Northwest, and each year selects top sea and shore command awardees at the senior and junior petty officer level. All SOY competitors at the collective CSG-9 level are already top performers in their own right because they are nominated only after having been designated as the SOY within their own units.
Opinion: Ban toxic chemicals from furniture Finding agreement in Olympia can sometimes be a challenge, but there’s one issue both Democrats and Republicans should agree on this session: protecting children and families from harmful and unnecessary flame retardant chemicals. That’s why we’re sponsoring the Toxic-Free Kids and Families Act (HB 1174), a bill to eliminate toxic flame retardants from children’s products and furniture. Our homes are loaded with flame retardant chemicals. They are in our couches, and products we give our kids. Toxic chemicals escape from these products and settle in house dust, where it’s picked up by babies who crawl around and put their hands in their mouths. We also breathe in the dust just by walking by as it floats in the air. Scientists have been sounding the alarm for decades that these chemicals are bad for our health. Studies link these chemicals to cancer, reproductive harm and developmental problems. Children are much more susceptible to chemical exposure because of their small size, rapid development and how often they put their hands in their mouths. A recent study found toddlers have five times the amount of flame retardant chemicals in their bodies as their mothers. Firefighters, who risk their lives every day to protect our families and homes, are also more vulnerable to these chemicals. Rep. Van De Wege is a firefighter and knows he
is exposed to a toxic soup of burning chemicals while on the job, including toxic flame retardants. We shouldn’t add to higher than average cancer risks of firefighters by keeping unnecessary toxic flame retardants in products. Of course we want to make sure our families are safe from fires. But we don’t need toxic flame retardants for fire safety. There are many safer, effective ways of ensuring products in our homes are fire safe. Several major companies have stopped using these chemicals in their products so that they can meet the demand for less-toxic, but fire safe, products, and have pledged to stop buying products containing toxic flame retardants. Some of the nation’s largest retailers have eliminated or begun phasing out furniture containing toxic flame

retardants. The industry is recognizing that it’s time for a change. It’s time we did the same. Many legislators agree that toxic flame retardants are a problem. However, there is some disagreement on whether the state toxics control agency should be allowed to stop harmful chemicals. We believe it is reasonable in this case because the flame retardants are harmful and there are safer alternatives. All of these reasons are why we can come together and enthusiastically support the Toxic-Free Kids and Families Act. We are working together and making progress protecting kids and firefighters from toxic chemicals. The rest of the Legislature should do the same. – State Reps. Kevin Van De Wege and David Taylor

BREMERTON – Naval Base Kitsap celebrated the renovation of unaccompanied housing Building 1001 at NBK-Bremerton on March 12. The two-year, $14.8 million renovation project included upgrades to bathrooms, doors, flooring, and air systems as well as safety improvements such as safety guardrails and additional lighting. The building’s 168 rooms house 336 sailors. During the ceremony, Capt. Tom Zwolfer, Commanding Officer, NBK, noted that the project team was met with unforeseen challenges at the beginning but praised those involved for aggressively pursuing resolutions. “As some of you may know, this renovation was our number one project last year,” Zwolfer said. “The upcoming arrival of Nimitz was quickly approaching so failure to complete on time was not an option.” He added, “NBK’s top-notch unaccompanied housing crew worked long hours over the holidays to ensure that the renovations and fin-

ishing touches were completed in time for the arrival of the USS Nimitz.” Zwolfer also pointed out that the building’s heating and cooling system is energy-efficient relying on ground source heat pumps housed in 96 holes that are 350 feet deep. “The system is energy efficient, cost efficient and environmentally friendly,” said Zwolfer. According to Capt. John J. Cummings, Executive Officer, USS Nimitz, the crew were impressed with the warm welcome and ease of transition to their new accommodations. The USS Nimitz arrived in January, however, many of their crew were settled in to Building 1001 a month before the ship came to Bremerton. Cummings then received a large wooden ceremonial key to the building presented to him by Master Chief Dave Lynch, Command Master Chief, NBK. Naval Facilities Engineering Command led the effort for the Navy. Project partners included prime contractor Washington Patriot Team.

There are two sides to every broken bone story Before I begin, I’ll answer the question you will surely ask at the end: No, there is no video (that I’m aware of) of the moment my feet went out from under me and I landed on my backside, breaking my wrist. My children, however, would be happy to describe for you in great detail the whole thing, including how I said, “I’m really good at this” seconds before I fell. This isn’t the first time I’ve broken a bone. It’s actually my fourth. Since I was a little girl I’ve been keeping up with, first, older brothers, and now, three sons. Yet I’m the only one who gets hurt. And if my four injuries are any indication, only 50-percent of broken-bone stories are even worthy of retelling. That doesn’t mean our memory doesn’t try to juice up the more mundane
Navy Wise
Sarah Smiley falls anyway. When you are wearing a cast, people expect a story, and they want it to be a good one. Usually, it is not. But this one was (according to the kids). My first broken bone was when I was 14 years old. I was on my piano teacher’s front porch waiting for my ride. I passed the time by jumping
from the porch to the yard below. I only did it once. That’s all it took to break my leg. Maybe you are envisioning a second-story porch. Maybe you think I landed on a rock or in a ditch. Nope. The porch was maybe one-foot off the ground, which was lush with new spring grass. The most interesting thing about that event was that 1) the Navy hospital was out of fiberglass, so I received a plaster cast, affectionately known as “a chunk of wall wrapped around my leg,” and 2) my fighter-pilot dad read the X-ray in the elevator and assured the ER doctor that he didn’t think it was broken. We were just there for a second opinion, my dad teased. The doc replied, “You should stick to flying because her leg is definitely broken.”
The next time I broke the same leg was much more exciting. It was also the night of my bachelorette party and six weeks before my wedding. There are two versions of this story: the one my grandma knows, and the one my bridesmaids know. The grandma version is that my foot slipped off my platform shoes. The other version is basically the same but involves things grandma doesn’t want to know. The doctor took that cast off a few days before I walked down the aisle. It wasn’t what he wanted to do. He pleaded with me to give my leg one more week. I pleaded right back about wanting to wear my ivory wedding shoes. I had already had my wedding portrait done on crutches. This is not how Martha Stewart said things would go.
“Okay, so maybe we’ll let you walk,” he said, “but please don’t wear heels.” Think back to your own wedding. Even your mom’s opinion doesn’t matter in the week before you get married, a week that is known for making people lose their minds, or, in this case, wear high heels. The permanent stiffness I have in my right foot is a reminder of my poor decision. Five years later, I broke my elbow, and there are two versions of this story, too, but only because no one remembers which one is correct. I remember that I was holding my infant son, tripped, and did a rolling maneuver to save my child. My husband thinks I was carrying cleaning supplies and fell over the baby gate. Either way, the broken elbow was the most excruciating pain I had ever felt. And

“My children, however, would be happy to describe for you in great detail the whole thing, including how I said, “I’m really good at this” seconds before I fell.”
I had already given birth to two babies at that point. I had not yet, however, experienced stepping with my heel on the head of a Star Wars action figure, which I assure you is up there on the pain scale. Which brings me to last week. My version of the story is that I was being awesome with the kids, trying to show off some of my amazing and heretofore widely-recognized balance skills. The boys’ version is that I said, “Oh, I’m really good at this,” and then stepped on an unstable board and instantly fell backwards in one dramatic, awkward move. In my mind, I was an Olympic athlete. In reality, I looked how a hoofed animal might if it tried to do a somersault. Later, Owen, 12, would say to a friend, “My mom doesn’t seem to embarrass very easily.” Wait, I was supposed to be embarrassed? But it is Ford’s advice that hopefully will keep me out of the cast room in the future: “Mom, when you say ‘I’m really good at this’ before attempting anything, just know that you are definitely going to fall.”

Olympia – A political thriller earns its debut March 23 at Olympia’s marble palladium when the Legislature’s leading producers-directors – Sen. Andy Hill, R-Redmond, and Rep. Ross Hunter, D-Medina – take the stage to introduce their awaited and unreviewed drama they claim will keep their fellow political thespians out of jail and solve the constitutional quandary hovering over them: full funding for basic K-12 education. The Washington State Supreme Court is holding those political actors accountable for a solution to its man-
date issued last fall in the wake of unyielding inaction by the legislative body: fund education or be sentenced for contempt. Hunter, who serves as House Appropriations Committee chairman, said the Legislature has to fund education in a way that eliminates the state’s dependence on local levies for basic education costs. “We have about a $2.5 billion obligation and I think we should fund it in equal annual increments,” Hunter said. “While the governor’s budget is clever, it’s not a good strategy for implementation on the ground.” Gov.

his budget for the 2015-2017 biennium last December, including a $3.6 billion education package, where he dedicates $1.3 billion for class-size reduction in K-3 and all-day kindergarten. Hunter says he’s not fond of the governor’s education proposal because it would prioritize class-size reductions in grades K-3 for low-income school districts, within the second year of this biennium and in doing so would overwhelm those schools with too many new teachers they would need to hire. Instead, Hunter recommends a statewide class-size reduction in grades K-3, rather than a sudden reduction in class size only for low-income school districts. “We need to phase in spending in a way that let’s people hire teachers gradually so you don’t wind up with a school having a huge number of new teachers at once,” he said.

OLYMPIA – State health officials are asking Washington’s dog owners, “Where’d you get that tick?” A new online survey aims to help the state Department of Health learn more about Washington ticks and the diseases they spread. Dog owners are asked to go online and fill out a short, anonymous survey, and to send the agency any ticks they find during tick season. In Washington, taking the dog for a late winter or spring-time walk comes with the added task of checking our four-legged friends for ticks. The tick season has begun in Western Washington, and in the next few weeks, ticks will emerge from their winter hideaways elsewhere in the state. “Many dog owners have found a tick or two on their furry friend after coming home from a walk outside,” said Dr. Liz Dykstra, entomologist for the Department of Health. “We’d like to know more about when and where they’ve picked up ticks, and if their dog has ever been diagnosed with a tick-borne disease.” Ticks are typically considered a nuisance pest in the Pacific Northwest, but occasionally they transmit diseases to dogs and people here. Because companion animals like cats and dogs can get some of the same diseases as humans, state public health tracks animal diseases. By doing this, disease investigators gather information about potential disease risks to humans. Every year, small numbers of tick-borne disease cases in people – such as Lyme disease – are reported to local health agencies and the state Department of Health. Many of these cases were infected during travel to eastern or Midwestern states, but a few people likely picked up their infection in Washington. Of the nearly 70 reported Lyme disease cases from 2010 to 2013, only about 15 percent were likely infected within the state. Preventing tick bites is the best way to avoid contracting a tick-borne illness such as Lyme disease. Wear light colored clothes that will let you easily spot a tick; tuck your pants into socks or boots and tuck in your shirt to keep ticks off. Using a repellant that has DEET on exposed skin can ward off the ticks. Learn more at http://doh.wa.gov/ticks.

ful branding message is the concept of “Kitsap Peninsula” as a whole. She pointed to a recent edition of China Airlines’ in-flight magazine which featured an article titled “Relaxing retreat: Kitsap Peninsula, Washington State” as an example. “More and more and more [on the Internet and in other media] we are being referred to as the ‘Kitsap Peninsula,’” she said. The Kitsap-wide branding message was important because smaller, unincorporated areas such as Colby and Manchester could ride the “Kitsap Peninsula” unified branding message coattails rather than having to try and send out a message on their own. “They get to say, ‘Yeah, I’m on the Kitsap Peninsula,’ and people will know where that is,” she said. The 371-mile Kitsap Peninsula Water Trail, the only one in the U.S. that was a saltwater water trail, has proved to be a popular draw she said. “Beyond,” the in-flight magazine for Alaska Airlines featured a six-page article on the trail titled “Liquid Assets: National Water Trails System promotes and protects exceptional waterways.” The article is in the March, 2015 Horizon edition. Port Orchard and Bremerton are featured in the article. The article could reach 1.4 million readers, Graf-Hoke said. She also referred to a recent study titled “Earth Economics.” In it, “Kitsap was ranked number four out of 39 counties for employment related to the outdoor recreation. They estimated $700 million of revenue generated. We were ninth out of 39 counties for revenues generated related to expenditures for outdoor recreation. So we are right on target with our liquid assets, our water trails and all of our

they’ve made progress on an update, but no specifics or a timeline on possible reforms have been announced. That’s why Stand for Children, an education advocacy group, and others have pushed for the state to regain the waiver; there’s no clear indication of when federal reforms might pass Congress, and the districts need the federal money the waiver provides now. The group has circulated a petition in support of the legisla-

“Tourism is a huge growth opportunity for Kitsap County” – Patricia Graf-Hoke other outdoor adventure marketing,” she said. Tourism also accounted for an increase in tourism-related construction projects, she said, including Point Casino’s plans to build a hotel to be able to meet demand. “They turned away 18,000 room nights last year because they didn’t have capacity,” Graf-Hoke said. “Tourism is a huge growth opportunity for Kitsap County and generates about $37 million just in taxes that the [county] commissioners get to use for projects.” Graf-Hoke said the goal was to keep tourists on the peninsula for longer periods of time. “We can really have an opportunity here to create our own little internal I-5 corridor between all our various communities and keep people here longer and overnight.” Kitsap can also roll out red carpet for international travelers, she said, and modify the county’s comprehensive plan to better address tourism. County Commissioner Charlotte Garrido also spoke at the meeting. Garrido said Kitsap needed to tell the Kitsap story and that its residents were the ones best-equipped to do so because they love living here and know the area. “We live here. We don’t have to be tourists. We can invite other people to visit what we can see every single day,” Garrido said. Garrido said the peninsula had a lot to offer including 79 county parks, agri-tourism, clean air, mountains and trees. “What’s good for environment is good for the economy,” Graf-Hoke said. Graf-Hoke said the county’s large areas of publicly accessible shoreline was also attractive to tourists. tion and has gathered 22,000 signatures. The state should pass the legislation to restore the waiver and the federal funding it provides. But much more should follow, including the federal revamp of No Child Left Behind. State officials still need to bring some clarity to the state’s schedule of tests for students in third through eighth grades, in high school and for graduation requirements. And they also should consider teachers’ concerns about the amount of time the tests are taking from classroom instruction time.
TOWN HALL CONTINUED FROM A1
before the state right now was how to comply with the state supreme court’s decision to adequately fund public schools. School budgets were too reliant on local levies, the court said. “In some districts the schools may look like they’re funded amply but that’s not because the state is funding them, that’s because the local voters are funding them. And one of the issues that the supreme court laid out was that that in itself is unconstitutional because the wealthier communities can pay more taxes than the lower income communities and therefore students in rural Washington or in poorer urban areas weren’t receiving the same education that students in more affluent areas were,” Rolfes said. Rolfes said the state needed to fully fund school buses, smaller classrooms, all-day kindergarten and maintenance and operation costs. It would cost at minimum $1.3 billion over two years, she said. Teachers also needed to be paid market rates, she said. “The state sends the Central Kitsap School District $35,000 (for example) for that teacher, but very few school districts can actually attract and retain a school teacher for $35,000 so their levies are being used to add $9,000 to that teacher’s salary,” Rolfes said, which the court said was not right. Rolfes said more funding would be needed to pay for McCleary, and that the legislature didn’t have a solid plan for how to achieve that goal, but added talks were ongoing. Hansen agreed.

and the other 20,000 commute into the county. “It’s not a bad thing when you have people living here who move outside of this market for employment as well. And a lot of those folks bring home some very nice paychecks from the I-5 corridor that are spent in your communities and with your businesses,” Powers said. Improving traffic flow through Gorst came up several times as an area that needed improvement. During the question and answer period, one person suggested shifting air freight traffic away from Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to Bremerton National Airport. Such a move might Test results can provide a window to help evaluate teachers, administrators and schools, but testing’s main

“In some districts the schools may look like they’re funded amply but that’s not because the state is funding them, that’s because the local voters are funding them.” – Sen. Christine Rolfes “We’re going to look at raising revenue,” he said. One way to raise funds, Hansen said, might be to raise the business and occupation rate from 1.5 to 1.8 percent which could generate $500 million. Appleton said the budget chairs wanted to ask voters to set aside I-1351. Schools had run out of classrooms, Appleton said, so reduced class sizes would exacerbate that problem. Hansen said cost-of-living adjustments to teacher salaries were likely because the recession was long over. • Mental health issues also a priority Noting that one in four Americans had a mental health issue and one in 17 had a debilitating mental health issue such as schizophrenia, Rolfes said that Washington state needed to make more beds available to people with mental health problems. “Washington ranked 49 out of 50 in terms of hospital beds we have for mentally ill people,” Rolfes said. “Joel’s Law” would also allow families to appeal a psychiatric decision and get a second opinion in order to have a family member placed in a mental hospital to keep both the family members and the patient safe. both reduce bottlenecks at Sea-Tac while simultaneously boosting business in Kitsap County. Powers said commercial passenger traffic was not viable since the 6,000-footlong Bremerton airport was too short to handle commercial airliners. Expanding the length of the runway would be difficult due to wetlands in the area. He said he would contact port leaders about the air freight idea, however. Powers said the airport could be used more for private aviation and military aviation purposes. The few people polled at the meeting stated their support for raising gasoline taxes to pay for the infrastructure improvements and maintenance. No one voiced opposition to increasing gasoline taxes.

• Ferry fares Rolfes said the transportation budget was almost fully funded by gasoline taxes and licensing fees. New projects, such as addressing Gorst congestion or building a new ferry, would require new funding. “The only way to do that is to find a new source of revenue so that’s either raise the gas tax or raise fees,” Rolfes said. Rolfes said it was a struggle to keep ferry rates low and ferry service at its current level, but that a gasoline tax and fee increase should preserve existing ferry service levels and keep fare increases low. “People should know the ferry fares cover 80 percent of the cost of running the ferry system. Which is way higher, way higher, than any transit system in the state,” Rolfes said. “The Bainbridge run, the Kingston run and the Mukilteo-Clinton run … usually in a good year make more than the cost of operating them and that helps to subsidize some of the other runs,” she said. But ferry fares do not cover the cost of terminal maintenance nor ferry construction. Those funds come from the transportation budget. • Fast Foot Ferry Hansen said he was indifferent to a fast foot ferry to connect Bremerton and Seattle, but that he would like to put it to a vote. “If that comes to pass imagine what kind of game changer that can be for Bremerton. I was talking to a homebuilder after one of our last town halls and he said, ‘man, if you get that in I am going to make a lot of money putting in a lot of new SEE TOWN HALL, A12
CBRE said he was “thumbs up” on the gas tax and highway improvements. “But one of the most important things and the one that would come easiest to Kitsap County is if somehow we could advance rail into the area beyond what it is today. Because working all over the region there is one type of land that is in high demand and that’s rail-served land,” Moody said. Garet Gartin also agreed on raising the gasoline tax and said he favored a lifestyle that wasn’t so automobile-centric. “Part of it, for me, is getting people off the roads in the first place and getting a little more dense areas in Kitsap County where people can live and work without having to commute at all. That would be my vision for the future,” Gartin said.

50 Years: Selma to Montgomery PAID ADVERTISEMENT
The following statements are published to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of THREE Selma to Montgomery marches which took place in 1965 and the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. If you had the opportunity to read the previous statements in the 3/6 and 3/13 issues you should have seen some common sentiments. The need for: A better public school system; action based diversity programs; and the need for racial harmony. Further we need to support our: small, minority/women owned businesses. Whenever possible PLEASE SUPPORT: Activist like R.Hill, Esq. Attorneys like Tracy Flood. Single parents like Melody Austrom.
March 21, 1965
Protected by 2,000 soldiers of the U.S. Army, 1,900 members of the Alabama National Guard, and many FBI agents and Federal Marshals, marchers finally marched.
Hardworking law abiding YOUNG black men like James Webb. Vocal Ministers like Tina Roberts. Businesses like the Lumpia Factory and Unique Experience so they won’t have to close their doors like The Learning Tree. Attend church, community events, PTA meetings, school board meetings and meetings with elected officials. Above all support our youth. Use compassionate listening and be involved in efforts that strive to help ALL human kind.
March 24-25, 1965
The marchers arrived in Montgomery on March 24 and at the Alabama State Capitol on March 25. With thousands having joined the campaign, 25,000 people entered the capital city that day in support of voting rights.
Collins Clark Hill - Student Brownsville Elementary: Member ASB, Emerging Young Lads and Ladies, African American Legislative Day Advocate. When I was in second grade I wasn’t able to keep up in school. During my first parent teacher conference, my teacher said she just “couldn’t teach me.” I have always liked school and did my best. Instead of getting mad my parents went into, “If there is a problem, let’s fix it” mode. I went to my pediatrician and Cedar Grove Psychological Services. I was diagnosed with having ADHD. My Dr. prescribed medication. My therapist helped with behavior modification. At first, the medications made me sick, tired, and sometimes hyper. My parents told my school’s principal I would be absent or late a lot until my Dr.’s could figure out what medicines would work best for me. At the end of the school year I was told I could not return to my school which made me really sad. My parents enrolled me in CKSD’s Off Campus Program. Off Campus is a Parent-Partnership Program. It offers support from a certificated consultant and district approved curriculum to families who educate their children at home. I also participated in the Enrichment Program. It is a one day a week program where students participate in grade-level learning, in addition, I was given extra help. My parents also asked CKSD to see if I qualified for accommodations under the American’s with Disabilities Act. I got them! Ms. Sharon Dommermouth, Former, Planning Team Member, SEPAC, and Heather Carrell, Sub Base Bangor, Fleet and Family Services, Military Liaison were instrumental in navigating my parents through the process . Now I wash tables for SPAC every year at the State Fair to show my appreciation. I always speak up when people are cruel or unfair. I know what it is like to be treated differently because of how you look and because you might not perform as well as others in a class room. Once, I was told not to play with kids who “were different” because I might not be popular. I think the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King would want kids to be friends with anyone. I helped with the successful effort to get a street named after Dr. King in Bremerton. Afterwards, I researched how many states do not have a street named after Dr. King. Because of my research I am spearheading an effort to have a street named after Dr. King in every state, e-mail me if you would like to help: youneedamlk@gmail.com.
Towan Curry - Student Olympic High School:
Member Diversity Family Emerging Young Lads and Ladies, Bremerton United Methodist Church. Upward Bound Scholarship Recipient. Future Minister.
I joined Diversity Family because at my school students still have clicks. Most ethnic groups stay to themselves, I am not close to many people because I love the Lord and maintain good Christian values. Before going to Olympic High School I went to Ridgetop and before that Brownsville Elementary. Last year I went to Brownsville’s Harvest Fest, while I was there a lady came up to me. She smiled and said, “Wow how tall are you.” She asked me why I was at Harvest Fest and right away I could tell she was a nice lady. She asked me what I liked to do. I told her I love history, to sing and that one day I might be a gospel singer. After talking to her she told me about Emerging Young Lads and Ladies and asked me if I wanted to join. She told me that most of the kids she worked with were much younger than me but she needed a youth mentor. She said she really wanted a male mentor because most of the children she worked with do not have fathers in the home. Next, she told me about “African American Legislative” the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Destination Imagination (DI) and the PTSA’s Reflections Program. The next thing I knew: I was on my way to Olympia, watched a few Brownsville DI practices and entered the Reflections program. I wrote an essay titled, “The World Would Be A Better Place If We All Stopped Fighting Wars.” Last Sunday Ms. Hill and her entire Family came to my church and watched a play my “Nana” wrote and that most of the youth in my church performed in. Ms. Stewart my 6th grade teacher also came. It warmed my heart to know that Ms. Hill and at least one of my former teachers support me and want me to do well.
August 6, 1965
The Voting Rights Act of 1965 was signed into law by President Lyndon B. Johnson. Congress later amended the Act five times to expand its protection. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, the Act is considered to be the most effective piece of civil rights legislation ever enacted in the country.
Thomas Angelo - PSNS, Retired Navy Chief, Father, Husband, Christian
I was born in Nevada and lived in the Philippines until age 3 when I then moved to South Central Florida until I joined the Navy. It was tough being me because I was one of three white families in a predominantly Black and Hispanic neighborhood. I experienced firsthand racism from all types of individuals. I was beat up at least twice a week just for the color of my skin. I’ll never understand why people disliked me because I was white and or because I would talk to people of other ethnicities. Two of my best friends growing up were not white. We had many deep discussions on why everyone just couldn’t love each other. We didn’t understand why people pass judgment on people they did not know. For 23 years I served my country on board Submarines. We were all just Sailors protecting the country we love. Fast forward 25 years and I still don’t understand why people can’t get past skin color. I have been in the Bremerton area for 15 years. I have witnessed the downtown getting its face lift. I have also seen people reaching out to the less fortunate. However, until there is a fundamental change to all human hearts; hearts that allow people to love one another despite our differences we will remain a lost people. I am thankful for my Church and my friends who are of all creeds and races. Because of Christ I still have hope. “Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.” ~Philippians 2:3 “My beloved friends let us continue to love each other since love comes from God.”~ 1 John 4:7
Ron Flemister - Co-Owner Unique Experience: www.twitter.com or visit our Website @ www.uniqueexperience1.com: Retired Navy, Devoted husband, father and servant of the Lord. I moved to Bremerton from Chattanooga, TN in 1979 and I met my wife Faye in 1980. We decided to make Bremerton our home because it seemed, like a great place to raise a family. After retiring from the Navy I worked at PSNS as a Nuclear Inspector. When I made the decision to open my shop my wife was reluctant, I was earning $25 dollars an hour at PSNS and had excellent benefits. It took a leap of faith for her to trust my decision. Unique Experience started in our home in 1990. In 1991, our business moved to the Bremer Center and remained there for 20 years. Eight years ago my wife and I purchased the building where we are currently located: 329 N. Callow Ave. Bremerton, WA 98312 Philippians 4:13 (KJV) “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” Faye Flemister said the best thing about owning a business with her husband is “Calling the shots!” The most challenging thing is finding ways to attack a broader customer base. We value all of our customers but we invite more people in the community to patronize us. We are especially interested in doing business with other businesses that will allow us to provide them with all their apparel/uniforms, embroidery, promotional items and silk screening. ~ James 2:15-17(NKJV) If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food and one

housing developments because a lot more people are going to want to live in Bremerton,’” Hansen said. • New Bainbridge bridge unlikely Appleton said a second bridge to Bainbridge Island was not feasible. “One mile of bridging right now costs a billion dollars. So keep that in mind,” she said. Rolfes agreed and said the state could only focus on maintaining existing bridges. “The Agate Pass Bridge … that’s rated at a 50 out of a 100 points by the Department of Transportation ... that’s a failing grade. But it’s not failing compared to the bridges that are rated at 18, 19 and 20.” “The state’s efforts on bridges aren’t on building new bridges. They’re on repairing bridges and expanding some of the bridges that we already have,” Rolfes said. • Firearm background checks “If you go buy a firearm at Cabe-
la’s they run you through the NICS (National Instant Criminal Background Check System) system, they do a background check to see if you’re a felon or if you’ve been involuntarily mentally committed,” Hansen said. “Up until recently, if I bought a gun (for example) from Sen. Rolfes, she didn’t have to run me through a NICS system or anything. That seems to me to be crazy.” Prior to I-594 Hansen favored softer legislation that included background checks while respecting Second Amendment rights, but it went nowhere. “So enter I-594. Now I-594 which – full disclosure, I voted for because I thought a flawed background check regime was better than no background check regime – is not as protective of Second Amendment rights as the bill in the house.” “This is sort of a ‘lesson learned’ moment for the National Rifle Association, that if you insist on saying ‘no no no no no’ at the legislative level, the people may take a different tack then you are prepared to have them take. And if that happens all of the sudden you need a big, gigantic vote
“This is sort of a ‘lesson learned’ moment for the National Rifle Association, that if you insist on saying ‘no no no no no’ at the legislative level, the people may take a different tack then you are prepared to have them take. And if that happens all of the sudden you need a big, gigantic vote in the legislature to do something about it.” – Rep. Drew Hansen on I-594.
in the legislature to do something about it.” Hopefully, Hansen said, I-594 would give parties involved to look at compromises in the future.
Rolfes wanted railroad and oil companies to work with local firefighters to inform them of the location of the trains as they passed through the area.
• Oil trains Rolfes said oil trains didn’t affect Kitsap specifically, but noted that mile-long oil trains do pass through the I-5 corridor carrying volatile North Dakota oil. Rolfes said the North Dakota oil was more explosive than other types of oil. “That oil, when there’s a derailment or some kind of accident, it’s highly volatile and it explodes,” she said.
• Coal power plants Puget Sound Energy and its customers get a lot of their electricity from the coal-fired power plant in Colstrip, Montana, Rolfes said, but Washington State is trying to reduce its reliance on coal to reduce carbon emissions. “We had a bill to help PSE gradually get out of the coal business and the state of Montana screamed ‘you’re going to destroy our economy,’” Rolfes said, and threatened to

jack up rates. Rolfes said Washington state was trying to work with Montana to find a way to get cleaner energy. • Silver Tsunami coming Appleton said that by 2030, 15 percent of the population would be over the age of 85 – a “silver tsunami.” With dementia and Alzheimer’s remaining problems, many of those seniors will wander from home. Appleton favored a “silver alert” program to use electronic reader boards and the Washington State Patrol to locate wandering seniors and return them safely home.

BAinBRiDgE iSLAnD REViEW Cat alerts man to house fire: An elderly man escaped a devastating house fire on Bainbridge Island March 11 after his cat woke him up before flames fully engulfed his home on Miller Road. The residence, a double-wide manufactured home, was destroyed in the blaze, said Assistant Chief Luke Carpenter of the Bainbridge Island Fire Department. Carpenter said the man was the only person home at the time. He suffered from smoke inhalation but was otherwise OK. The fire was originally reported just after 4 a.m. by a neighbor as a possible brush fire, but firefighters discovered a structure fire when they arrived at the home in the 12300 block of Miller Road. Carpenter said the resident told firefighters “the cat was making a ruckus,” and he woke up to find smoke in the house. “Apparently he was awakened by the cat,” Carpenter said. Authorities are not yet sure what caused the blaze. “The cause of the fire is under investigation, but it appears accidental,” Carpenter said. At the height of the fire, approximately 25 firefighters were battling the blaze, Carpenter said, including units from Poulsbo and North Kitsap. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTOn PATRiOT Bremerton rejects regional agreement: The Bremerton City Council voted unanimously to reject an interlocal agreement with the Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, March 4. The council wants the KRCC to adopt a more balanced voting structure. KRCC is a council of local governments responsible for countywide planning policy, as required by the state Growth Management Act. “I had concern about the voting structure,” Councilman Roy Runyon said. “Currently, the voting structure
requires that two commissioners be present and two commissioners vote in favor of whatever item is before the KRCC board of directors.” Runyon said there have been at least two instances in recent years in which the KRCC couldn’t vote because there weren’t enough commissioners present. Rob Gelder, chairman of the Kitsap County Board of Commissioners, disagrees with the notion that the voting structure is unfair. “The voting structure doesn’t allow for any one group, cities or county to unilaterally move any decision forward. Quorum for holding a meeting requires two commissioners be present,” Gelder said. “This means that the other members aren’t able to convene a meeting and pass items without the county being involved.” Councilwoman Leslie Daugs, who serves on the KRCC, said the language in the current interlocal agreement doesn’t distribute power equally among its members. “A lot of the wording in our interlocal agreement moves a lot of the majority of the vote toward our county commissioner,” Daugs said. “And I just want to make sure that Bremerton still has a voice with KRCC as it’s an important project that we’re involved in, it’s also a good partnership for our city to be a part of.” Gelder said the current voting structure was designed to give everyone in Kitsap County a voice. “The voting structure was created long ago to foster balance and collaboration,” Gelder said. “Kitsap County has only three seats of the current 12 voting positions on the KRCC, yet Kitsap County is responsible for a majority of county residents.” Runyon believes the structure isn’t operating as well as it could. “I think it’s important to kind of level the playing field and, if it’s a true partnership, the partnerships need to be equal,” Runyon said. “The departments need to be equal and have an equal say ... and I’m glad council’s taking this step to open this conversation up.” — BremertonPatriot.com
Central Kitsap Fire & Rescue firefighter Brian Fuchs stands in his turnout gear in front of the Columbia Center in downtown Seattle during the 24th annual Scott Firefighter Stairclimb on March 8. Ryan Orseth / CKF&R
CEnTRAL KiTSAP REPORTER Firefighters raise money to fight cancer: Central Kitsap Fire & Rescue firefighters raised $18,869 to help fund the fight against leukemia and lymphoma during the 2015 Scott Firefighter Stairclimb in Seattle. The 11 members of Team Central Kitsap were among the nearly 2,000 firefighters who took part in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society fundraiser at Seattle’s Columbia Center March 8. Wearing 50 pounds worth of turnout gear, firefighters walked up 1,311 steps to ascend 69 floors in the state’s tallest skyscraper. The vertical height totaled 788 feet. Ryan Orseth was one of the Team CK members. “It’s an awesome feeling to be able to know that you did a huge thing … not just for Central Kitsap Fire & Rescue, but for the families out there that really needed it,” Orseth said. “If you don’t think that leukemia or lymphoma affects you, I guarantee it will. Before you’re dead, it will affect somebody you love. And the faster we get a cure, the faster we don’t have to deal with this any more.” Team CK’s fundraising efforts since 2011 have been
“exponential,” according to Orseth. The team raised around $3,000 in 2011 and another $3,000 in 2012. But in 2013, the figure tripled to $9,000 and in 2014 the total increased yet again to $16,400. This year, Orseth contributed $5,102 to the team’s $18,869 total. Fellow team members contributed as well: Lindsay Muller raised $3,795; Linda Jenkins, $2,541; Doug Bekenyi, $1,600; Kyle Good, $1,561; Dave Mackovjak, $1,145; Scott Weninger, $862; Steve Werner, $852; Tom Sullivan, $425; Lindsay Reese, $409; and Brian Fuchs, $350. Another $225 was raised. Orseth said team members only had two goals: To raise a lot of money, and to climb to the top of the building safely. Orseth, who said he has run several half marathons, met his personal speed goal of finishing the climb in less than 20 minutes — 19:23. “That’s 17 seconds per flight,” he noted. He added, “You have to realize every step is really nothing in the big scheme of things because you’re fighting for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. And if you ever met these kids and people who have lost lives … they’ve gone
through surgeries, they’ve gone through everything you could possibly believe, and that’s 10 times worse than climbing some stairs with full gear on.” Team CK’s Jason Fernandez and Patrick Busby worked as the team’s bottle changers on the 40th floor. They worked like a race car pit crew to pull the spent air bottles off climbers and replace them at lightning speed with fresh ones. Team CK has a goal of raising $20,000 and they have until March 31 to finish their fundraising efforts. To donate, visit the team’s web page at goo.gl/HQiY5l.

nORTH KiTSAP HERALD Human trafficking in Kitsap: A vulnerable runaway teen will be approached by a pimp within 48 hours of being on the street, according to Shared Hope International. Pimps have an innate ability to identify the most vulnerable children. “There are kids being trafficked out of every school in Kitsap County,” said Victoria Ahlfors, a former victim of sexual exploitation, “and that’s the truth.” Those were the grim messages presented at a seminar on sexual exploitation, March 5 at North Kitsap Fire & Rescue. The event was the result of the effort of many people — including Soroptimist International of Greater North Kitsap and of Greater See AROUNDKITSAP, Page 4

Bremerton, OurGEMS, Scarlet Road and local law enforcement. Approximately 70 people attended. The purpose: to increase awareness of human trafficking in the region and discuss ways to stop it. The event included a screening of the movie “Chosen,” about sexual exploitation in Kitsap County. “Everyone — men, women, service providers and our entertainment world — must participate to increase awareness and join the fight to overcome the exploitation of these victims,” Sheriff Gary Simpson said. “These are our sisters, our children … that are being dragged into this evil environment.” Children as young as 10 are being targeted for sexual exploitation, with children in grades 8-10 the most targeted, according to information presented at the seminar. The offense of “Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking” is the act of forcing children and teens into sexual slavery, Simpson said. This can include child pornography, prostitution, and sexual entertainment like that found in strip clubs. “These are not victimless crimes,” Bremerton Police Sgt. Randy Plumb. “Our culture’s perspective and the movies we watch are far from reality. The victims of human trafficking are always subject to assaults, threats, fear [and] intimidation as well as being enslaved to drug addiction. Their participation is far from voluntary.” Ahlfors is the co-founder of Scarlet Road, a local non-profit organization established in 2008 to help victims of sexual exploitation in Kitsap County. “The term ‘human trafficking’ is in the media a lot, but we prefer the term ‘sexual exploitation.’ Trafficking doesn’t always happen, however, exploitation always does. It is clear and keeps a wider spectrum.” Ahlfors explained how Scarlet Road assists victims. “We work to gain their trust and help them to tell their
Friday, March 20, 2015 story. We walk with our clients until they are able to stand on their own two feet. When a girl moves, we move with her.” Her job as an outreach worker is to find victims and help them escape. “In five minutes, I can pick out the most vulnerable girls from a crowd. In the next five minutes, I need to find out who’s hunting them.” Ahlfors said of the tragedy of sexual exploitation, “I see the brokenness of [the sex] industry against humanity. It turns people into products and takes away their value as human beings. It pulls women away from their human life and puts a dollar sign on it.” When asked what community members can do to help, Kitsap County Prosecuting Attorney’s investigator Natalie Mays said one way is to donate clothing and bedding. “In many situations, once a girl is rescued from this lifestyle she cannot return back to retrieve her things,” Mays said. “It’s far too dangerous.” Donations can be made at the Kingston and Silverdale locations of Lucky Star Clothing Consignment, under the account “Scarlet Road.” Mentors are also needed, to be a stable and trustworthy companion for those recovering from exploitation. And, officials said, spread the news. Simpson said he hopes to continue making presentations throughout the region. “There are 280,000 people in Kitsap County, and around 50 people in this room,” Plumb said, “We need you to spread the news about this important issue.” Event organizer Audrey Wolf said she has a wait list of people who want to host seminars in Bainbridge Island and South Kitsap.

Left, Charlotte Whitten holds back tears as she is crowned queen by Devenn Miller, the 2014 Fathoms queen, during the 2015 Fathoms o’ Fun Festival scholarship pageant at Christian Life Center. Dannie Oliveaux 2015 Fathoms o’ Fun Royalty Scholarship Program, March 7 at Christian Life Center. More than 325 people watched as outgoing Queen Devenn Miller crowned Whitten, who won six of the 10 awards during the night. The event’s theme: “the Superhero in You.” The 18-year-old South Kitsap High School senior won the Congeniality Award (chosen by contestants), Spirit Award (chosen by outgoing royalty), Impromptu Question Award, Best Oral
Essay Award, Formal Wear/ Modeling Award, and Top Ticket Sales Award. “I am overwhelmed right now. I am so happy,” Whitten said shortly after she was crowned queen. Thanks so much to the judges and fellow contestants that voted me for Miss Congeniality. I am so thankful and so humbled.” During her year of reign, Whitten plans to get more familiar with the community. “I’m looking forward to getting to know Port
Orchard better and getting to know my community, and making stronger bonds with my court,” said Whitten, the daughter of John and Anna Whitten. Her platform was “The Power of Music” and she played a vibraphone during the talent competition. Cheyenne Werbelo, a 17-year-old SKHS senior, and Tamara Medal, a 17-year-old SKHS senior, were selected as princesses for the senior court. Werbelo, the daughter of Pete and Mandy Werbelo, won the Talent Award playing the harp, while Medal performed a sword fight demonstration. Medal is the daughter of Robert and Darlene Medal. Werbelo’s platform was “Creating Angelic Noise” and Medal’s was “America for the Arts.” First runner-up was Caylain Dandridge, a 17-year-old senior at SKHS. Karla Lewis, the second runner-up for the senior court, won two awards for top button/pin sales and top sponsor sales. Lewis is an 18-year-old senior at SKHS. The Mayor’s Award, presented by Mayor Tim Matthes, went to 2014 Fathoms Princess Soriandy Sutman. She received the award for putting in the most hours at community event. Sutman also was crowned duchess for this year’s court. Aaron Thomas, the 2013 Fathoms king, ended his time serving as the 2014 ambassador. Serving as senior court judges: Gary Linstrom, store director for the Sedge-
wick Albertson’s; Kristine Ramsdell, 2010 ambassador; Alan Johnson, 2007 Fathoms o’ Fun prince; Shelia Cline, development manager for the Arthritis Foundation in Washington state; and Matt Murphy, executive director of the Port Orchard Chamber of Commerce; Madilynn Mackie, Maria Hoyt and Alli Newhouse were chosen as princesses for the first-ever Junior Royal Court. Abbey Hicks was the first runner-up and Neko McKay was second runner-up. Mackie, a 15-year-old ninth-grader at Marcus Whitman Junior High, won the Debbie Macomber Best Written Essay Award for her essay on teaching. Hoyt, 12, was the youngest contestant and is a seventh-grader at Cedar Height Junior High School. Newhouse, the younger sister of outgoing senior princess Sami Newhouse, is a 14-year-old eighth-grader at John Sedgwick Junior High School. Hoyt’s platform was “Creating Change” and Newhouse’s platform was “Born Deaf, But Born to Dance.” Helene Jensen said the junior court will be mentored by the senior members to help prepare them for future senior court participation. Each contestant read a 500word essay, “What Brings Out the Superhero in You,” before a panel of judges — Stephanie Clark, Don Ryan and Brianna Martin, along with Miller, Thomas and Sutman. — PortOrchardIndependent.com

Vikings set to cycle through North Kitsap
Viking Tour organizers made their presence known at the 2015 Chilly Hilly in February on Bainbridge Island, the region’s first cycling event of the season. They went to spread the word of the new cycling event in Poulsbo and recruit masses to the inaugural Viking Tour. Contributed
Inaugural Viking Tour cycling event planned for 2015 Viking Fest BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Kitsap Week
”This ride is north Kitsap County’s claim-to-fame ride. It’s North Kitsap’s exclusively ... it’s a chance to see how beautiful North Kitsap is, with all the back roads.” — Leo fried, viking tour organizer
I
t is the first of what organizers hope to be an annual cycling event through North Kitsap. “This ride is north Kitsap County’s claimto-fame ride,” said Leo Fried, an organizer with the Viking Tour that is currently planning its first ride in May. “It’s North Kitsap’s exclusively,” he said. The tour goes through North Kitsap “and it has something for all riders. It’s a chance to see how beautiful North Kitsap is, with all the back roads.” Organizers expect anywhere from 600-900 riders to mount their two-wheeled steeds and descend upon Poulsbo for the inaugural ride on May 17, coinciding with the final day of Poulsbo’s Viking Fest. Fried, along with a collection of locals, has created a horde to get the event rolling. Fried is an avid cycler himself. He
Organizer Dan Barry gets the word out about the Viking Tour at the 2015 Chilly Hilly. Barry sports a shirt with the tour’s motto, “Get ready to trim your beard & shave your legs.” Contributed rides with a local group, “Geezers of Fury.” “We’re mostly from Bainbridge Island and Poulsbo,” he said, noting they get together each week to take 20-mile
rides. “We are a loose knit group of bicycle riders that got together and made some jerseys.” Some Geezers of Fury will be present at the Viking Ride. Organizers
are spreading the word to get more. Fried lent his cycling knowledge to the effort by crafting the routes. The Viking Tour offers three route options for amateur to more enthusiastic cyclists. All rides begin at Poulsbo’s Fishline on Viking Avenue. The Odin route takes a 65-mile tour, starting at 8 a.m., with 5,000 feet of climbing through the area. “There are riders that will want to go a longer distance and challenge themselves. So the hard, longer, 65-mile route has 5,000 feet overall climbing elevation,” Fried said. “That gives people that want to push themselves something to go for.” The Odin includes a sprint competition with a $1,000 prize. Participants in the competition will be issued a computer chip that will be recorded once riders cross certain lines, and race for approximately nine miles in the middle of the route. The 65-mile route will take cyclists all the way to Hansville and Port Gamble and back to Poulsbo. There will be rest stops along the way. “When possible, we stay off of main roads. It’s mostly on back roads,” Fried said. “It’s a hilly area we live in, so we have our
VIKING TOUR What: The first Viking Tour cycling event, taking bicycle riders on three routes through North Kitsap. When: May 17. Rides begin at 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. Where: Routes begin and end at North Kitsap Fishline, 787 NW Liberty Lane, Poulsbo. Info: www.poulsbovikingtour.com, info@ poulsbovikingtour.com Three Routes Odin: $65. A 65-mile route up to Hansville and Port Gamble and more. With 5,000 feet of climbing elevation. Begins at 8 a.m. Includes a time trial with $1,000 purse for the winner. Thor: $50. A 35-mile route with 2,500 feet of climbing elevation. Begins at 8 a.m. Loki: $10, or $25 for a family of three or more. A family friendly, 5-mile bike ride. Begins at 9 a.m. fair share of hills.” The Thor route is another option. It’s 35 miles and has a fairly even elevation. It begins at 8 a.m. “There’s a lot of people that want to do an organized ride, but don’t want to do 65 miles; 35 miles is a good, average ride for most riders,” Fried said. “It’s half the elevation of the other one, 2,500 feet over all climbing elevation.” Finally, the Loki route is family-centered at five miles. It begins at 9 a.m. “Everybody deserves to ride and bicycle riding is a great family activity,” Fried said. “I have friends with children just starting
out riding. This is a great ride for them.” Each route has different entry fees. Odin is $65. Thor is $50. The Loki family ride is $10, or $25 for a family of three or more. The money raised will benefit the Poulsbo-North Kitsap Rotary, which provides funding for local projects — such as parks — and scholarships. Registration for the ride is currently open.

Soaking in sulfur water stretched out side by side in cast iron, claw-footed tubs, we watch dying stars and a snow moon light the broken grass of winter, skeleton trees missing their leaves, molted now on the ground as sparks climb the sky from our fire, turn to ash. — Carol Despeaux Fawcett, Poulsbo
Port Orchard man receives humanitarian award
T
he 2015 Kitsap Peninsula Global Humanitarian Award was given to Richard Courteau of Port Orchard at the annual RESULTS Community Awareness luncheon. The event was on March 1 at Kiana Lodge in Suquamish. Courteau was honored for his efforts toward alleviating poverty. He formed “KIVA KREW” in conjunction with his church to provide 1,500 loans to poor entrepreneurs in 67 countries. Kiva.org is an online organization that crowd sources loans for individuals in poorer countries. Those loans are used for business purposes. The KIVA KREW began in 2008 and was initially three people, Courteau included. It had a goal of providing 100 loans that year. The goal was reached within four months. It has since attracted a total of 67 people working to provide loans to families in 67 countries. The Kitsap Peninsula Global Humanitarian Award is an honor provided by the Kitsap chapters of RESULTS to note contributions in the fight against hunger and poverty. RESULTS is a grassroots advocacy organization that is dedicated to addressing the issue of poverty around the world. It has chapters in seven countries.

Meditative art form leads to Yoga Mosaics
Louise Martin’s art discovery leads to new venture BY LESLIE KELLY Kitsap Week
I
t was an old, leaky birdbath in her yard that led Louise Martin to the art of mosaic. And now, four years later, she’s created garden stepping stones and benches, mirrors, and fine art made with Italian smalti tile. “I wanted to fix my birdbath,” Martin said. “So I asked my friend what I should do. She lent me her materials and her tools, everything I needed. I had so much fun making that old birdbath beautiful that I decided mosaic was for me.”
For that project, a cement fountain-shaped birdbath, Martin used colorful stained glass and created an orange and blue design. It wasn’t long before she’d finished off a trio of cement stepping stones with bright yellow sunflowers, purple lilies and red roses. From there, she topped cement garden benches — which her husband Clyde Muirheid poured — with stained glass flowers and fish. In the stepping stones, there are about 100 pieces of glass in each design. There’s more than 250 pieces of glass on each bench. Each piece of glass she uses she hand cuts and arranges on the base. She then hand grouts and seals the work. Quite often, she’ll add gemstones or glass beads to make each of her works unique. Her most recent proj-
ect is a round patio table topped with 3,009 pieces of stained glass in the colors of the seven chakras. There are blue and green starbursts, with a bright yellow sun pattern in the middle of the table top. “The table top was a real labor of love,” she said. “It took more than two months, working about three hours every day.” It was a combination of two things she loves — mosaic and inner peace. Her thoughtfulness and introspective ways, including meditation and yoga, came following a cancer diagnosis two years ago. “I was highly spiritual as a child,” she said. “Over the years, I did meditation on and off. But I got away from it. I took ‘the gift of cancer’ to get me to thinking about life in a different way.” Cancer, for her, was

Louise Martin holds mosaic artwork she made with smalti tile. Martin, of Port Orchard, has been making artwork under the name of Yoga Mosaics for four years. Leslie Kelly “like getting hit by a truck.” She needed to get her mind, body and spirit in sync as she faced a mastectomy. She also began doing Tai Chi and Qi Gong. “The stillness helped me,” she said. “And mosaic was wonderful for that. You can really get lost in
what you’re doing.” As she was doing both yoga and mosaic, the idea came to her to blend the two together. She decided to name her business Yoga Mosaics and she began making wall art and mirrors that featured cats and dogs in yoga positions. She sought out Dan Borris, who makes calen-
dars with pictures of cats and dogs doing yoga. and asked for permission to pattern her mosaics after his pictures. “That’s one of the things about mosaic work,” she said. “You don’t have to be able to draw. You can use images that already exist and make See MOSAIC, Page 13

Mosaic
Continued from page 12 them your own.” She’s also created beautiful lotus flower works and the tree of life in wall mosaics. Mosaic is one of the older forms of art, Martin said. Mosaic murals date back to 100 B.C. Roman and Greek mosaics were used in a variety of private and public buildings, often incorporating social, entertaining, mythological or personal scenes within wider geometric patterns. For her works, she buys stained glass in Bremerton at Eastern Wind Stained Glass and from a company in Tacoma. She’s done commissioned works and created family pieces with special meaning, including one for her grandchildren with an image of Babar the Elephant. In that piece, she let her grandson help her decide where to place some of the special pieces like two tiny birds. Art wasn’t ever something she thought she’d be doing, Martin admits. Martin has a Ph.D. in psychology and has worked in marketing research, training and development and medical indexing. She and her husband were living in Portland, Oregon, when they traveled to Seattle for a work-related event and decided to take the ferry across to Bremerton. “When we got here, we decided we wanted to live here,” she said. “So we started looking for a house.” They ended up in the Annapolis district in Port Orchard where they have lived for about 15 years.
Doing mosaic work with smalti tile is one of her favorite ways to work in mosaic. Smalti are opaque glass mosaic tiles made according to traditional recipes in small batches. Natural variations in shape and color make smalti the ideal material for making life-like mosaics. And with smalti, there is no grout used. The pieces are stacked to create depth. “The colors are just so vibrant,” she said. “It comes in a big cube and you cut each piece one at a time. It takes a lot of time and a simple piece can take weeks to finish.” It’s also more expensive than working in stained glass. Martin prices her works based on size and intricacy and the amount of time it takes her to complete the piece. A gallery of her work can be viewed at www.yogamosaics.com. She hopes to create a community piece in the near future. “I’d like to work with people to create a community piece, a mural, something that will last,” she
said. “I’m hoping to attend a class in Berkley where I can learn how to manage that.” And she’s looking forward to marketing her yoga cats and dogs in the area. She’s always open to creating animal artworks beyond yoga positions. Her mosaic work has helped her to heal from her cancer and her yoga and meditation brings her peace every day. She’s looking forward to becoming a volunteer with Hospice and helping others. And she plans to continue to create mosaics. “Part of what makes mosaic so much fun is that you can do anything you want,” Martin said. “There are no rules.”

The art, joy and benefit of watching birds Why are one in five Americans so fond of bird watching?
T
he U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service published a 2011 report on the demographics and economic impact of bird watching. Surveys in the report found that one in five Americans has an active interest in bird watching. Some 47 million bird watchers, ages 16 and older, spend nearly $107 billion on travel and equipment related to bird watching. As an industry, bird watching provides 666,600 jobs and generates $31 billion in income. In Washington State, wildlife viewing and photography adds more than $5 billion each year to the state and local economy. About 88 percent focus mainly on backyard birding. But some extreme listers travel extensively in search of rare birds for their life lists. The legendary birder Phoebe Snetsinger became obsessed with bird watching when she learned she had only one year to live — she was diagnosed with terminal melanoma in 1981. She lived another 18 years instead, fervently

observing birds across the globe, and set a world record of 8,398 bird species before her death in a 1999 car accident in Madagascar. Others, like Connie Sidles, find endless joy in daily visits to a single favorite place. She has filled three books with her luminous prose describing the natural beauty and wonder she finds at the Montlake Fill, an oasis of nature inside the City of Seattle. People give different answers when asked what drew them to bird watching. For most, it starts with the simple aesthetic pleasure of enjoying the grace and beauty of birds and sharing the experience with family and friends. Wildlife viewing is among the most popular forms of outdoor recreation, and birds are the most visible and accessible form of wildlife, especially in urban and residential settings. You can even enjoy them from the comfort of your own kitchen window. Birds also symbolize freedom for many because they fly with such ease. For some, it has spiritual qualities and evokes feelings of peace and tranquility. It’s healthful and restful and no doubt good for your blood pressure.
Their exquisite plumage and vivacious songs enliven our sense of the magnificence and beauty of the world we share. Our love affair with birds and wildlife connects us at a visceral level with the simple bliss of being alive and feeling at home in the natural world. Like most pursuits, bird watching embraces a whole subculture, with many levels of expertise and intensity. For some, it is highly competitive. For others, it involves serious study of physiology, behavior and the role of birds in the ecosystem that sustains life. For many, it’s about collecting memories and sharing stories about memorable moments and exploits. Bird watching is a wonderful pathway into nature. The annual Audubon Christmas Bird Count and Great Backyard Bird Count are becoming valuable tools for monitoring the health and distribution of our bird population. Birds are a telling indicator of environmental health too, and they are increasingly threatened by habitat loss and shifts in climate. Human activity is making it harder and harder for them to survive. Dramatic declines are a warning us that our welfare is just as threatened as theirs. Organizations like Kitsap Audubon avidly promote responsible
Roger and Mary Zabinski and daughters Aina and Kate go bird watching along the Clear Creek Trail in Kitsap. Gene Bullock bird watching, not just for enjoyment but also because our birds and wildlife need friends who care enough to protect them. We want to swell the ranks of their devoted friends and advocates. We want families and future generations to understand how intertwined we are with the fate of our birds and wildlife. What happens to them and their environment happens to us as well. — Contact Gene Bullock at genebullock@comcast.net

Tempranillo pouring across the Northwest Rare Spanish grape rises in popularity among NW vintners
A
s far as the region’s history goes, the Pacific Northwest has little in the way of growing Tempranillo, the noble red grape of Spain’s Rioja region. But our region’s grape growers and winemakers are quick learners. The Northwest’s first Tempranillo grapes went into the soil in 1993, when Red Willow Vineyard’s Mike Sauer planted a few test vines in Washington’s Yakima Valley. Just a couple of years later, Earl and Hilda Jones of Abacela began planting Tempranillo in earnest in Southern Oregon’s warm Umpqua Valley. In the two decades since, Tempranillo has established itself as a favorite with growers, winemakers and consumers alike. We recently conducted a Tempranillo judging on behalf of Wine Press Northwest magazine and expected perhaps 40 examples of the wine to show up from Washington, Oregon and Idaho. Instead, we drew 72.
nW WInes By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
Most of the production of Northwest Tempranillo is in small amounts. In fact, the average case production of the wines tasted was below 250. This means most of the wines are sold directly to consumers through the wineries’ tasting rooms or wine clubs, while a small amount likely is making it to wine shops. Here are a few of the top wines from our comprehensive Tempranillo judging. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. Find the complete results in the latest issue of Wine Press Northwest or at www.winepressnw. com. Eight Bells Winery 2013 Red Willow Vineyard Tempranillo, Yakima Valley, $32: The oldest Tempranillo in the Pacific Northwest is grown at famed Red Willow Vineyard in the western Yakima Valley, and the owners of this small producer in Seattle have crafted a superb example that opens with aromas of ripe strawberry and oak undertones, followed by rich flavor of plump red and dark fruit, backed with hints of plum and chocolate.
