Pretty poultry on parade
Police station proposal needs 60-percent ‘yes’ vote to pass BY BRIAN KELLY

Luciano Marano | Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge Island 4-H chicken costume contest returns to farmers market Fine-looking fowl, one decked out duck and a full parade of pretty poultry turned out to the Bainbridge Island Farmers Market last weekend to strut their stuff in the 8th annual Poultry Pageant Costume Contest. The pageant, sponsored by the farmers market and the Bainbridge 4-H Club, featured about a dozen birds in various costumes competing for the first place prize, as chosen by a crowd vote for their favorite getup. Costumes included birds bedecked in the guise of Santa Claus — complete with human elf assistant — a jail bird, James Bond, a peacock and many more.
An already controversial proposal for Bainbridge voters — a $15 million bond sale that would pay for a new police station and municipal court next to Bainbridge Island City Hall — was hit with an unexpected “October surprise” in the weeks leading up to Tuesday’s General Election. The shocker came from inside, however, as city officials recently announced the piece of land eyed for the new facility was highly contaminated and polluted with chemicals that had been dumped at a former dry cleaning business on the property. Proposition 1, the ballot measure for a 20-year bond sale to pay for a new police station to replace the city’s aging and cramped building on Winslow Way, was

Critics of the proposal — a wide-ranging group that includes tax-beleaguered islanders, former city officials and even one candidate for the council — say Prop. 1 is too pricey and ill-conceived. Supporters, however, say there’s no question about the need for a new facility, and its proposed location next to city hall is the best option available.

Dear BSF, all I want for Christmas is 60 fetal pigs BHS club examines, delves into science that doesn’t yet exist BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
They develop vaccines; they construct synthetic skin; they perform open heart surgery — and then they head off to soccer practice. Who is this cadre of scientists? That would be Bainbridge High School’s Biomedical Engineering club. Every other Thursday, they gather in Charisa Moore’s classroom to conduct experiments, collect data and design solutions to a variety of
medical-related problems. This month, Moore’s team of 90 partnered with the Center for Infectious Disease Research, formerly Seattle BioMed, in their Stage 3 trial for a malaria vaccine. Armed with brand new 1000x-power fluorescent microscopes, students counted the number of infected blood cells in mice exposed to the mosquito-borne disease — albeit, not without a few hurdles. “We’re not sure if they’re specks or actual malaria contamination,” one junior said of the four cells her group counted. Others, like Leah Potter and Ashley Alnwick, two of the club’s officers, struggled to see anything.
Turns out the view can appear cloudy when lenses are loose. But a third pair found their groove in the monotony; they were so immersed in their cells that Moore had to kick them out after the rest of the club had left. “I’m like, ‘Really? You’re the less than 1 percent of kids that will have this job.’” Those moments are the reason that Moore created the club in the first place. “We sit in classrooms every day and kids don’t really have an idea of what’s career-related out there,” said Moore, who is also a biology teacher and the National Honor TURN TO BSF | A34

More kudos The Facts About Chimney Fires Your chimney adds architectural interest to your home, but its real function is to carry the by-products of combustion from your fireplace, wood stove or furnace safely out of your home. As these substances exit the fireplace or wood stove, and flow up into the relatively cooler chimney, condensation occurs. The resulting residue that sticks to the inner walls can cause chimney fires. Anatomy of a chimney fire flue sooty build up just one little ember
Starts a Chimney fire
As you snuggle in front of a cozy fire or bask in the warmth of your wood stove, the last thing you are likely to be thinking about is the condition of your chimney. However, if you don’t give some thought to it before you light those winter fires, your enjoyment may be very short-lived. Dirty chimneys can cause chimney fires, which may damage or destroy homes and injure or kill people. Proper Maintenance Clean chimneys don’t catch fire! Make sure a certified chimney sweep inspects and cleans your chimney annually.

BI fisherman still missing A Bainbridge Island man is still missing after a fishing outing earlier this week. A search involving multiple vessels from the Coast Guard — and helicopters from Port Angeles and Astoria, Oregon — looked for the boater over a span of 28 hours on Monday and Tuesday after he was reported missing by his wife but came up empty. Searchers scoured more than 400 miles in Rich Passage and beyond. The Coast Guard called off the search at 1:43 p.m. Tuesday. The Coast Guard began looking for the man after his wife called Bainbridge police and reported him missing Monday evening. His 15-foot boat was later found adrift in Rich Passage, and authorities found a fishing pole and an open tackle box aboard the vessel. The man reportedly was not wearing a life jacket. “The decision to sus-
pend a search is never an easy one to make and is done with great care and deliberation,” said Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr. Darkeim Brown, the search-andrescue mission controller at Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound. “Our thoughts are with the family and friends of the missing man.” Authorities said the missing man is 54, but have not released his name. The Coast Guard said earlier that the wife of the missing man said her husband’s truck and boat trailer had been found at the boat launch at the Port Orchard Marina. Officials said crewmembers aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Wahoo, an 87-foot Coastal Patrol Boat homeported in Port Angeles, as well as an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter from Air Station Port Angeles, two 45-foot response boats from the Coast Guard’s Station Seattle and an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter from Air Station Astoria, Oregon, were called out for the search.

Deadline nears for marina leases Bainbridge Island is currently accepting applications for one-year subleases at the city-run residential marina on Eagle Harbor. The subleases begin Jan. 1 and expire Dec. 31, 2016. City officials said a limited number of spaces are currently available for both the linear moorage system and fore-and-aft moorage. To apply for an open water marina sublease with the city, potential tenants must submit the application form available on the city website at www.bainbridgewa. gov/DocumentCenter/ View/4132. The application must be completed in its entirety, and received by the city no later than 4 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13. Applications can be submitted to Harbormaster Tami Allen, hand-delivered or mailed to city hall (280 N. Madison Ave., Bainbridge Island, WA 98110), or sent via email to tallen@bain bridgewa.gov. In the event that there are more eligible
applicants for a type of moorage than the open water marina can accommodate, the city will use a random selection process to identify applicants to receive subleases. City officials said other eligible applicants will remain on a waiting list in the event that additional subleases become available.
Building staff has training The city of Bainbridge Island’s Building Division will be closed on Friday, Oct. 30 so city staff can complete required updated International Existing Building Code certifications and training. According to the city, no building inspections will be performed Oct. 30 and no building staff will be available at the city hall front counter for permits. The city’s Online Permit Center will still be accessible during the closure. PUGET SOUND
Mariner hit with suspension A U.S. Administrative Law Judge has suspended the merchant mariner credential of Cindy Stahl
Friday, October 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
of Bainbridge Island for six months for operating a commercial towing vessel with an invalid credential. Authorities said Stahl wrongfully assumed direction and control of the towing vessel Shannon in Elliot Bay on Feb. 17 with an invalid credential in violation of U.S. laws and regulations. Stahl’s credential was suspended at the time as a result of a previous violation during which officials said she endangered the crew and passengers aboard multiple Washington state ferries by purposely hindering their safe transit in Elliot Bay near Seattle on Oct. 7, 2014. Stahl had also previously been issued a warning letter by the Coast Guard in March 2013 and had her credential suspended for three months in September 2013, both for other violations of U.S. laws and regulations. “The Coast Guard’s enforcement actions regarding mariner credentials are remedial and not penal in nature and are designed to maintain standards of competence and conduct necessary to minimize loss of life, personal injury, property damage, and environment harm on
U.S. waters,” said Chief Warrant Officer Brian Hennessy, senior investigator at Coast Guard Sector Puget Sound. “When repeat offenses warrant more significant action, the Coast Guard will not hesitate to seek lengthy suspension or revocation of a mariner’s credentials,” Hennessy said. BAINBRIDGE SCHOOLS
More students in the classroom Enrollment in Bainbridge Island public schools continues to rise after years of stagnant growth. Officials with the Bainbridge Island School District, in its official October enrollment count, report that the district currently has 3,675.4 full-time equivalent students enrolled in district schools. The number is 20.4 FTE students higher than budgeted. Bainbridge High welcomed 310 new freshmen, 349 sophomores, 306 juniors, and 303 seniors for a total of 1,268 students this year at BHS. Enrollment at BHS is about five students above last year’s enrollment.

In Our Opinion
Endorsements for Nov. 3 W
e stand divided. At least, that’s our takeaway from the massive amount of letters-to-the-editor that have filled our newspaper’s mailbox during the past two months. It’s obvious that many islanders have firmly made their choices on next week’s General Election ballot. For those who haven’t, however, we offer our following endorsements. But first, it must be noted that this November, voters have an impressive group of candidates to pick from, and their qualifications are impressive, one and all. For the Bainbridge Island City Council District 1 seat, Ron Peltier gets our enthusiastic endorsement. While Peltier gained fame as a rabble-rouser opposed to the Visconsi development, his commitment to environmental stewardship and safeguarding our unique Bainbridge Island character can’t be questioned. And sometimes the rabble need to be roused; Peltier will provide a much needed voice on growth and development issues on the council. For the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District Commissioner Position 2, voters must keep Ken DeWitt in place on the park board. DeWitt’s long service, his institutional knowledge and unshakable commitment to excellence within the parks district makes him our clear choice. For the Bainbridge Island School Board District 1 position, we must offer a dual endorsement. Bainbridge voters will be well-served by either Lynn Smith, a longtime volunteer who will bring her valued history with the Odyssey Multiage Program to the board, or Duncan C. Macfarlane, a brilliant mind with a history of leadership. For the Bainbridge Island School Board District 4 position, voters should return Tim Kinkead to the board. Kinkead has been a positive presence on the school board, and comes to meetings as one of the most prepared elected officials we’ve ever seen — well-versed in the issues coming before the board, while not being shy about drilling down into the details when needed.

Letters Election
Consider our vulnerable community members To the editor: Safety and privacy are two important goals missing in the proposed move of the police and court next to city hall. Directly across the street from where city council wants to place a police station/court is the Peacock Family Center, an early childhood and family support center. And just south nearby at Winslow Way/Madison intersection is the Madrona School at Eagle Harbor Congregational Church. There are aspects of the function of both the police and court that are not desirable near a school and/ or daycare. A police station/court is where criminals are tried and booked, people come to get weapons permits, sexual offenders get registered and alcohol monitoring ankle bracelets are fitted. The proposed police/court building would be across from where children holding a rope slowly walk behind their caregiver to cross the street. And we have four senior care facilities on Madison alone: Finch Place, Wyatt House, Island Rehabilitation and Bainbridge Senior Living. We’ve all seen seniors with walkers, canes, and motorized chairs traveling along Madison Avenue. Wouldn’t they also be in harms way of a police car leaving the station in hot pursuit? Consider too, that those who experience domestic violence or need a restraining order, would have to go to a very public space adjacent to city hall across from the Pavilion
and Madison Diner instead of to the court in Rolling Bay? Thank you for taking a moment to consider those that are most vulnerable and please vote no on Prop. 1. MADELINE REEVES AND JENY VIDAL Bainbridge Island
Do your research and vote no on Prop. 1 To the editor: Next month, voters decide whether to pay for a new police complex on Madison Avenue next to the new city hall. Cost estimates seem to range from $15 million to $28.5 million. The recently disclosed high contamination of the proposed site suggests the costs may be much higher. Three questions have arisen: First, isn’t the current location better for a police station? From the current police station, police can drive on Highway 305 at high speed to respond to calls. By contrast, running high speed squad cars on sedate Madison Avenue could endanger school children, pedestrians, cyclists and motorists — as well as daycare workers and kids right across the street. Second, should we follow the money? The proponents apparently want to spend big bucks just to buy properties for this development. Who gains financially? Is another lucrative Bainbridge land deal the real motive for Proposition 1? Third, can we avoid this unnecessary suffering? Fiscally sophisticated cities in King County contract for police services with the King County Sheriff’s Office and its 1,000plus deputies. The cities save money. The county handles litigation. The citizens receive professional police services. Everybody wins.
We can win too. The Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office has over 200 commissioned deputies and corrections officers on the roster. Islanders don’t have to spend millions on a new and dangerous police complex. The great philosopher George Santayana said: “Those who do not remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Do your own research. Vote no on Proposition 1.

In response
Our worst of times is the best of times To the editor: I experienced a mixture of bemusement and gratitude upon reading “Website names Bainbridge as state’s ‘10th worst’ city.” Bemusement for learning we islanders did not have things people wanted, having just walked from a performance at the prestigious Seattle Opera and rode the ferry full of my neighbors having walked from seeing our NFL Champion Seattle Seahawks. I stopped into our fabulous, remodeled T&C, picked up just what I wanted for dinner, ate and then walked to our great library to attend an amazing Island Theatre performance of “Copenhagen” directed by our own talented Kate Carruthers. All this in just a matter of several hours. Gratitude because we have so much more on the island and immediately adjacent. Gratitude that others are promoting “Lesser Bainbridge” for our benefit.

Dewitt’s leadership is unmatched To the editor: If you care about the future of the island’s park district, we encourage you to vote for Ken Dewitt. Ken has provided outstanding service to the community and the park district through his work as a park commissioner. We have had the distinct pleasure of working with Ken on the park board. Through his professional background in the finance and real estate fields, Ken has provided unmatched leadership on many issues related to the park district budget, financing park district operations and recent real estate transactions, such as the purchase of the Sakai Family Farm property and the acquisition of several parcels west of Gazzam Lake Preserve that have helped protect the park from potential development. His thorough knowledge of our parks and the park district’s history has helped board and staff work through the many challenges we have faced over the years.

Mulhern is not one of ‘those’ attorneys To the editor: Speaking as a longtime island resident, I write to explain my enthusiastic support for Pegeen Mulhern for Bainbridge Island City Council. I have known Pegeen professionally for 25 years. Pegeen is a stunningly qualified and balanced candidate. Her environmental credentials are strong and unwavering, giving her the sensibilities and values we share as a community. She worked with the Sierra Club’s Legal Defense Fund and as a law clerk for a federal judge with a powerful record of environmental protection, including the spotted owl case. Pegeen will be a strong advocate to protect our island’s resources, livability
and the values set forth in our comprehensive plan. True, Pegeen is an attorney, but not one of “those” attorneys. Pegeen is a bright, hard-working maritime commercial attorney who has spent a career seeking financial, pragmatic and practical solutions to tricky business problems. Putting deals together requires business acumen, understanding the relevant law and the ability to get the parties to reach agreement on creative workable solutions when an impasse is reached. She works with clients on agency interface and huge budgetary matters. Similarly, the work of the council is complex. Isn’t this the kind of background we want for council members? Equally important, Pegeen is also a busy mom deeply involved in the fabric of our community through her volunteer work with the city, our schools, church and youth sports. If you want an experienced and hard-working professional to listen, evaluate, weigh difficult issues and build consensus, your choice is Pegeen Mulhern! W.L. RIVERS BLACK Bainbridge Island
Macfarlane is an excellent choice To the editor: I hope you will join me in my enthusiastic support for Duncan Macfarlane for the Bainbridge Island School Board. As a parent of two children attending Bainbridge schools, formerly Wilkes, now Sakai and Woodward, Duncan cares deeply about the education of all students and is ready to advocate fairly and passionately for students, families and teachers. He also has a goal: to help grow Bainbridge schools from being great schools to being extraordinary schools. Rather than resting on past accomplishments, Duncan hopes to work with the school board and district administrators to improve our schools for students of today and those of tomorrow. This will be through pursuing ideas on best education practices, metrics to measure student outcomes, offering challenge and opportunity to students in a variety of learning environments, and to help ensure that the upcoming bond measure to replace
aging buildings will embrace dynamic changes brought about by new technology, different learning situations, expansion of arts, theater and career and technical educational opportunities while being fiscally responsible. While PTO experience is highly useful, two of the five school-board members already come from PTO backgrounds, and so Duncan provides new expertise and the opportunity to augment the board with education and strategic leadership experience, an ability to ask informed and smart questions, fiscal and business acumen and stewardship for a shared vision of learning. On a personal level, I have known Duncan through scouting and can attest to his profound passion for public education and his belief that all student learning can improve regardless of past or existing circumstances or resources. Learn more at www.BISB Candidate.com. Let’s make Bainbridge schools extraordinary! Vote for Duncan Macfarlane for the Bainbridge School Board on Nov. 3. BERNADETTE WITTY Bainbridge Island
Pollution has me flipping my vote To the editor: I heartily agree with the Review’s critical assessment of the city’s knowingly purchasing a toxic site for the (no doubt needed) new police station. The action — and the fact that the city is foisting the cost of cleanup on Bainbridge citizens — leads me to oppose Proposition 1 where previously I supported it. City council should find a different site for the station. MORTON KONDRACKE Bainbridge Island
Vote for diversity and affordability To the editor: Ron Peltier is exactly how he describes himself — a long-time island steward. I have always respected him for that. He has lived his life as a steward, and now he will bring that stewardship to city hall. It’s hard to reconcile all the changes that have happened on Bainbridge that have led to me being described as part of our “diverse” population! But that’s how people describe my hidden neighborhood, islander Mobile Home Park on Madrona Way. There are wonderful pockets of diversity on Bainbridge —
Friday, October 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
people who love our island and have figured out how to live here. Folks say they want to keep our demographic. Yet, I heard that at the candidate Q&A last Wednesday at city hall, Ron Peltier was the only one of the five candidates who firmly stated that he opposed the $15 million Prop. 1 we’re all being asked to support. Ron was the only candidate who understands that we can potentially spend half as much if we build elsewhere. Ron was the only candidate who understands that increasing taxes for working folks on the island means another expense that makes Bainbridge unaffordable. We all understand we need a new police station, but Ron is the only candidate who understands that we need to maintain affordability. True stewardship includes representing everyone’s interests. True leadership includes standing up for principles — and for Ron those are the five overriding principles in our comprehensive plan. One of those principles supports diversity and affordability. Vote for Ron Peltier. MARIA COOK Bainbridge Island
Please vote no on Proposition 1 To the editor: The police may need better facilities, but siting the police station on Madison Avenue is not the place. Wrong location: I concur with City Manager Doug Schulze that “it did not make sense to locate a police station in a shopping center.” Although he was talking about the Visconsi property, his comments are even truer for downtown Winslow, which is one big shopping center. Putting the station on Madison Avenue makes even less sense in a pedestrian focused downtown with lots of residents and tourists walking/crossing streets. The proposed location is not supported by the comprehensive plan, which recognizes downtown as a vibrant, pedestrian-oriented place where people live, shop, obtain services and meet for social/cultural activities. Winslow cannot be all things to the island. What works: places to live, a strong retail, the farmers market, theaters, museums, medical facilities and services. This mix helps the viability of businesses in Winslow. A police station does not. Too costly: We have many funding needs — for the nonprofits that form the safety net of our community, for future funding needs for
road repairs/improvements, pedestrian/bicycle facilities, school projects, downtown parking. Some residents can afford whatever amount is asked, yet being fiscally responsible is still an important value. For other islanders with more limited incomes, the costs can be too much and they may have to move off the island. Why not use land we already own? $15 million is too much. Let’s be prudent! Contamination: If another reason was needed to reject the bond, it is the now-positioned-as-new revelation that the proposed site is contaminated. Why take on this added burden? Let’s vote “no” so we can get it right. JANE ALLAN Bainbridge Island
Mulhern is a wise choice for council To the editor: I have been a closer observer of city council since I stopped commuting seven years ago. What I have learned is that serving on city council is a very demanding, low wage job requiring many hours of work and an ability to translate one’s values into good policy for the city. Not everyone is suited to this job. I am voting for Pegeen Mulhern this fall, because I think she’s well trained, experienced in the kind of thinking required of the council to tackle its tasks, and because she shares my values. I agree with many writers that think Ron Peltier is a good guy, smart, who cares deeply about our community. When I have watched Ron and Pegeen, or read the transcripts of their remarks at city council, comprehensive plan and planning commission meetings, I am more impressed with the way in which Pegeen handles the discussions of sustainability and planning. I find myself troubled by Ron’s recurring accusations that the “city” is pro-development and growth. In my tenure here, what I have witnessed is that the pressures for growth are immense — the price of housing in Seattle, the attractive character of the island and soon there will be the pressure of climate refugees from other parts of the region. We can’t just say, “You can’t move here” and expect landowners to resist the pressures to sell, or tell current children on the island that they can’t live here when they grow up. I do want to preserve the island’s character and ensure a sustainable quality of life. I don’t want it to
become a place where only wealthy people can afford to live. We can do that best through translating the comprehensive plan into code, planning for diverse housing needs and by ensuring that our utilities, homes and other developments (both current and future) have the least impact on the land and water around us. I think Pegeen will listen, then work hard, collaboratively and wisely on the significant challenges that face our island community. GLORIA SAYLER Bainbridge Island
Peltier doesn’t waffle on issues To the editor: When most of us became aware of a proposed large commercial development at High School Road and Highway 305 we thought, “This isn’t right, I wonder if it can be stopped.” While we were wondering, a few people took action to halt the development. Ron Peltier led the charge. Ron has always been passionate about preserving the special quality of the island. When it became clear that the trees would come down and buildings would go up, Ron understood that the comprehensive plan, as written and enacted by the city, not only allowed but encouraged this sort of development. Ron is not only passionate, he’s practical. He realized that to protect and sustain the essential quality of the island we must reestablish the principles of stewardship in the comprehensive plan and begin to change the culture at city hall. This is why he is running for city council, to craft a comprehensive plan that reflects our desire to preserve the unique character of Bainbridge Island and sustain those principles for the future. But Ron isn’t just passionate and practical. He’s courageous. At the recent LWV candidate forum, other candidates dodged questions or hid behind “I’ll let the voters decide” or “I’ll just trust the city council.” Ron gave clear, direct, well-reasoned answers to those tough questions. Courageous and honest. At a time when this community has so many critical issues to decide we are fortunate to have the opportunity to elect a candidate that is passionate, practical, courageous, honest and independent. Now it’s time for all of us to act. Vote. MICHAEL HUDDLESTON Bainbridge Island

Parental perfection and the lure of the ‘Success Trap’ Summer is officially over. Whether you fall into my camp and feel a little relieved that the sunny day urgency to “make it count” is subsiding or you’re crying into your sweaters, we can’t deny that the “hunker down” part of the year is upon us. What I’ve witnessed over my years as a therapist is that as we move through this transition, we sometimes trade one feeling of urgency for another. This season’s version is about getting things done and doing them well. Instead of putting our whole selves into seizing the day with whatever summer fun we can squeeze into 24 hours, we’re feeling the crunch of getting back to work and school. In my other Teenage
Teenage Pressure Cooker
BY TARA MURPHY
Pressure Cooker articles, I’ve talked about how adults put pressure on kids to be “successful” and ways that we can shift that. This stream of pondering has led me to think more about the pressure adults put on each other and the trickle down effect that has on kids and teens. The truth is that if we really want the legacy of perfectionism to change for the youth in our community,
then we have to start that change with the people who hold the power (hint… it’s us). We’re the grown ups. We’re the parents, the teachers, the coaches, the counselors and we are the ones with the most sway and influence in the system. The issue that I want to focus on the most here is a nasty thing called parent oppression. It’s an evil force! It’s the force that shall not be named! And yet we perpetuate it without even realizing it. Parents have the hardest job there is, with an unfortunate lack of support. We don’t have the same sort of community or even social structure that cultivates shared responsibility and shared
benefits for everyone succeeding in their own way. We live in a world that encourages us to be competitive and hyper focused on status and financial success. Even if we don’t buy into those ideals conscientiously, they are still woven into the fabric of our overarching culture. Not only does this poison our youth with a sense that they have to do it bigger and better (than their parents and peers), it poisons our relationships with each other as adults and parents. I’ve seen plenty of parents over the years who were struggling and afraid to look for support for fear of judgment. Society sets you up to see your child and their success as a reflection of your own and as proof of your com-
petence as a parent and a person. This dynamic hurts parents because asking for help through a normal struggle often feels like it equals admitting failure. We need to work harder to create a culture for parents that makes it safe to struggle and makes it okay for their kids to fail without judgment from others. We are too often relishing in someone else’s downfall because we think it means there’s more room for our own advancement. Let me throw out a crazy idea that contradicts our society’s message about opportunities for success. There is room for all of us! If we are pursuing what is genuinely best for ourselves in a gracious and self-aware
way, it honors that there is space for others to do it too and we might even have some graciousness left over to lend them a helping hand. Try that expansive energy on and bring it to your interactions with your community and your children and let’s see if we can’t create something different together that’s more inclusive, loving and supportive. After all, isn’t that the soil we want our kids to be planted and cultivated in anyway? If you are a parent or have a child that is struggling. BYS is here for you. AskBYS.org.

Grassroots groups says no to Proposition 1 To the editor: Bainbridge Families For Fiscal Responsibility is a grassroots movement composed of island citizens who oppose Proposition 1, the so-called “Public Safety Facility” bond measure, that seeks $15 million to build some sort of “campus” adjacent to city hall on toxically– contaminated property. Bainbridge Families For Fiscal Responsibility does not have a website, nor an email address. It does not receive one penny in funding. BFFFR is simply folks who call Bainbridge Island home — your friends and neighbors, many of whom have lived here for decades. Many long-term Bainbridge residents feel that the vision for the island has changed dramatically for the worse since the 1990s. A recent example is the “branding” debacle, which I suspect the city hopes will die a quiet death. Another memorable example is the “angled parking experiment” on Madison, complete with planters of palm trees, which came and went almost overnight. God knows how much THAT cost. And now, of course, we are stuck with Visconsi, that monstrosity across from Ace hardware. Supporters of Prop. 1, a PAC calling themselves “Islanders for a Secure Bainbridge,” have a website. A WHOIS search revealed that the registrant of this website is “Perfect Privacy, LLC,” a Florida outfit which enables the true registrant to remain unidentifiable. Why such secrecy? One thing we do know is that sup-
porters include our mayor and five other city council members. What is not clear is who stands to benefit financially if this misguided project goes through. Just Vote NO! PAUL SANDERS Bainbridge Island
Smith cares deeply about island schools To the editor: We have known Lynn Smith and her wonderful family since we first moved to Bainbridge Island in 1999, and are thrilled that she is running for the Bainbridge Island School Board. Lynn has been heavily involved with the district since her kids first entered school. Her experience as PTOCC President and PTO President at Odyssey Multiage Program has enabled her to develop good working relationships with district staff, teachers, principals and parents. Because of this experience, she has an incredible breadth and depth of knowledge about substantive school district matters. Lynn is a positive and constructive problem solver who cares deeply about the island’s children and the district in general. Bainbridge Island is lucky to have someone like Lynn Smith running for the Bainbridge Island School Board. Lynn’s favorite quote sums up how she would approach her school district position: “The role of a creative leader is not to have all the ideas; it’s to create a culture where everyone can have ideas and feel that they’re valued.” - Sir Ken Robinson Please vote for Lynn Smith on Nov. 3! MIKE SPENCE AND KAREN WEST Bainbridge Island
Grinter brings breath of fresh air to park board To the editor: I am supporting John Grinter for parks commissioner over a 16-year incumbent and here is why: I was quite dismayed that, at a recent park board meeting, there was a vote to use taxpayer dollars to pay for increased enforcement of antiquated dog leash laws. Under current law, the simple act of having your dog off leash at a park warrants a $300 fine. While hundreds of citizens have petitioned the parks board to allow for more reasonable off-leash laws, the commissioners have largely ignored them. The citizenry has asked for collaboration and the board has opted for confrontation. You might ask how a body of elected officials could be so politically tone deaf, but the answer is simple. The board has set up a system of six-year terms that makes them largely unaccountable to the voters, heavily favors incumbents and largely discourages candidates who might not want to make a sixyear commitment to public service. Since 1999, no incumbent has ever lost an election and two out of every three races have been uncontested. John Grinter believes in a transparent and accountable government that is responsive to the needs of its citizens and is a collaborative problem solver. He also believes that dogs running, chasing balls and swimming are legitimate and welcome park activities. He will bring a breath of fresh air to an institution that for too long has been operating without sufficient public oversight. While his opponent has done some good things during his very
long tenure as commissioner, and has had my support in the past, 16 years is enough. It’s time for a change; it’s time for John Grinter. MICHAEL POLLOCK Bainbridge Island
Peltier will work to keep BI affordable To the editor: Ron Peltier is running for city council. I am privileged to know Ron Peltier well, and I want to tell our fellow islanders about him. I am a business owner in Winslow. And, in Winslow, we value the tourist trade greatly. However, a strong tourist trade is simply not enough. Our future is tied to the strength of Bainbridge Island. The vibrant economy, which is a key principle of our comprehensive plan, depends upon a strong island community dedicated to our long-term sustainability and support of our special island character. If we continue to destroy our special character, many other good things will also disappear. Ron understands the limits of our natural resources, and he has dedicated his efforts to preserving our aquifers, our magnificent trees, the life-giving water of our sound and our unique sense of community. Ron also understands the limits of our pocketbooks, and will dedicate his efforts to keep Bainbridge affordable. Ron and his wife Polly are longtime island stewards who have been instrumental in maintaining the best of Bainbridge. Ron Peltier has been a strong voice for responsible development on Bainbridge Island. Let’s put that strong voice on the city council. A vote for Ron ensures that a longterm sustainable vision
will inform the decisions we make today for our fate tomorrow. UDO WALD Manitou Beach
Mulhern will protect our precious tax dollars To the editor: We are writing this letter to sing the praises of, and support, Pegeen Mulhern for city councilor. Our family has known Pegeen for the past 10 years, our children played sports together and we have worked on various Bainbridge Island School District academic committees. Pegeen is sound, highly intelligent, considerate and she cares very deeply about protecting Bainbridge Island. She has spent the past number of months listening, really listening, to the multiple voices of our community about their issues and concerns. She is a person who can synthesize these various points of view, and work toward constructive solutions to often challenging problems. She understands that growth must be done responsibly to protect our resources, preserve the values of our comprehensive plan, and offer prudent investment for our taxpayer dollars. We have the highest respect for Pegeen, and believe she would be a tremendous asset to our city council, and our community at large! Her positive outlook, keen intelligence, ability to listen and negotiate, and her warm smile are much needed in our city council. Please consider voting for Pegeen, a vote for protecting our environment, our comprehensive plan and our taxpayer dollars. DAWN AND GORDON JANOW Bainbridge Island

Peltier is the right leader for council To the editor: As you look to selecting between the two contending candidates, there is no question. Ron Peltier is the right choice for council! Long-term planning: We are at a crossroads on the island. Should we grow large and move to the Mercer Island urban model? Of course not! We need deliberate planning and a strategy to balance modest growth, while keeping the small town/country nature of our community. Ron has analyzed the strategic options. He is on record for smart expansion while keeping the island’s rural character. Under Ron’s stewardship we will have the right comprehensive plan in 2016! Fiscal responsibility:

We need to provide government services in an efficient and business-like manner. Council and city staff need to do what’s right for the islander’s pocketbook. Action-oriented: There has been an obvious disconnect between the city and the other taxing districts. Ron is a flexible collaborator and a man of action. He would have jumped at the chance to align a new police facility with the fire department on 305/Madison! The $400,000 the city spent on consultants showed this was the most popular and practical investment. However, that did not fit with a few officials’ vision. Ron will get us back on track!

It’s time for us to do our part To the editor: Back to the Future. It’s past Oct. 21, 2015 and we know the Cubs didn’t win the World Series. Back to the future, today, and we know that the men and women of the Bainbridge Island Police Department will report to work ready to serve and protect our community. These officers, and the civilian employees who also work at the police station, will report to a functionally obsolete and dangerous facility at a location which compromises our police department’s commitment to transparency and community involvement. You may remember, not too long ago, those opposed to replacing the police station claimed their opposition was not based on “cost or location” but rather the need for accountability and transparency. Now their criteria has apparently changed. When hired, Chief Hamner promised to improve the quality of our officers and create accountable and transparent relationships with our community. Chief Hamner, his officers and staff have fulfilled that promise. Now the future has arrived and we, as a community, have the opportunity to fulfill our long-standing promise to provide our police department with a facility which enhances rather than impairs their ability to serve and protect, located where it’s needed, in the heart of our community. The chief and his officers and staff have done their part, now let’s do ours. Please VOTE YES on Prop. 1. JIM KENNEDY Bainbridge Island
Mulhern will be superb addition To the editor: For my first letter to the editor after 22 years on Bainbridge Island, I am writing to support Pegeen Mulhern for city council. We have been friends for many of those years after getting acquainted as work colleagues. Pegeen is a remarkably unique and gifted individual. It would be easy to consider her diverse experiences to be merely interesting: mother, skilled transactional attorney, research librarian, community volunteer, small business owner and commercial fisherman. Instead, her background reflects an ability to think and act effectively wearing different hats in different environments. Our land use, traffic and other issues are, and will remain, complex, involving the need to respect and balance values we all believe in: protecting our natural resources, preserving the island’s character, respecting the interests of our neighborhoods, creating more affordable housing and enhancing our local economy. We need elected officials who will consider our community’s challenges and opportunities reasonably and fairly from multiple perspectives, including constructive, thoughtful and respectful conversations with the public and among our council members. Pegeen is perfectly suited to the task. Complementing her experience, she has a delightful sense of humor, an innate collegiality and great listening skills. She has an open mind and will ask good questions. She will land on positions that make sense but never without respectful con-

sideration of others’ views. Pegeen will be a superb addition to the council. I enthusiastically recommend her to island voters. JON KROMAN Bainbridge Island
Peltier will take on the tough issues To the editor: When I heard that Ron Peltier was running for city council I was delighted. My husband and I have known him most of the 30 years we’ve lived on Bainbridge Ron is genuine, honest, caring, thoughtful and very much concerned about the future of this beautiful island of ours. Ron is also not afraid to bring up unpopular questions such as: Can our island support this unlimited development that seems to prevail these days? Is there water enough to sustain us and future population increases? We are now in the month of October, and we are still very short of rain. Have we given adequate attention to this very basic fact? What will be the state of the aquifer on Bainbridge after a few more dry summers like we had this year and a dry autumn? Instead of building an expensive police department, we might be better off building a reservoir to catch a little rainwater. Ron will keep us focused on such vital issues. Whenever I hear an islander say unthinkingly: “There is a lot of money on this island” I despair. Sure, some of us are quite wealthy, but most of us are middle class, and quite a lot of us are barely hanging on, hoping just to afford next year’s property taxes. Ron brings a well-tested sense of economy to keep our island livable and sustainable for all of us. Ron, his family and his parents have lived on Bainbridge for many years. Ron has seen many changes in the interim, some good, some not so good. With new looming problems
Page A11
like climate change, growing population and many other concerns, Ron has the courage not to dodge the difficult aspects, that otherwise might be unpopular at council meetings. I say, good for Ron. We need a fresh voice, with a promising future. I truly hope Ron will get the votes needed for him to get elected to the city council. We all need Ron Peltier. The island needs Ron Peltier. NOW! HAJNI JOSLYN Bainbridge Island
Madison location is too expensive To the editor: Voting against Proposition No. 1 is not about being against the police department or the municipal court. It is about good fiscal responsibility. We do need a new police station and, while I’m not sold on the need for a new court or one in the same facility as the police department, I am not opposed to these, either. What I do oppose is a city government that puts its own convenience above common sense and good financial judgment. The current location is too expensive, too small for growth in the future, and contaminated by harmful volatiles in an unknown, but apparently increasing, amount. The city doesn’t have any clear plan how it will find the funds to pay for the cleanup, but wants to purchase the property regardless. Will it recoup the costs from the current owners? The city hasn’t even gotten a price reduction and agreed to pay more than double the assessed value of the property even though it knew about the contaminants. The city is simply willing to spend any amount of money for this site, even though the upper Madison Avenue sites are cheaper, bigger, uncontami-
nated and closer to Highway 305 — and therefore closer to the citizens who need police help. Whether the site is closer to city hall is beside the pertinent point. This proposition needs to be defeated so that the city will listen to its citizens and make a better, fiscally reasonable choice. FRANC FISHER Bainbridge Island
Voters can trust Peltier on council To the editor: I want to express my support for Ron Peltier. I have known Ron for many years and truly respected his views on the environment and the growth of our community. Today, we all look and say that the island is a beautiful place to live, but beauty is more than skin deep. Years ago, our water went bad and the well connecting us to the natural aquifer was abandoned. This symbolized a serious change in our environment on the island. The chorus of frogs that once blessed our neighborhood is long gone. Every day we pick up trash that our community has chosen to discard. There are more dead animals on the beach, and lawns along the waters edge are greener than nature would ever allow. We see trees disappearing as we maximize development potential for personal and corporate profits. New buildings are decorated with fake windows so that the design looks “Bainbridge.” We are growing, and will continue to do so. With so many new pressures every day, the involvement of community and the development of policy are so important as we look at nurturing our little island into the future. I find great trust in Ron Peltier. If you went to city hall last week and listened to all of the candidates, you know that Ron has a great knowledge on planning and environmental issues that affect

Mulhern will be an advocate for island To the editor: I have watched Pegeen Mulhern work in professional and community settings since 1999 and enthusiastically support her candidacy for the Bainbridge Island City Council. Pegeen’s ability to combine a passion for education and the environment with professional skill and judgment will be a welcome addition to our city government. Pegeen and her husband ran a successful charter sailing operation before moving to the Island 35 years ago. While their children attended Bainbridge Island public schools, Pegeen was an active member of numerous school district committees. Today she is a highly respected maritime attorney who is eager to apply her professional expertise and personal experience to advocate for the people, resources and businesses of the Puget Sound Region. Our island is struggling with tough issues, including how to manage growth and how to protect the special nuances of our island community. Pegeen’s desire to encourage citizen participation, listen to our community and advocate for our unique island environment is exactly what we need on the city council. I encourage you to join me in voting for Pegeen Mulhern. NINA MITCHELL Bainbridge Island

Bainbridge flutist performs with national concert band BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge High School senior flutist Hayden Tutty performed on Oct. 28 with an ensemble of the 673 most talented American music students. Don’t worry, you didn’t miss the show. Unless, of course, you were in Nashville, because they played on the world-renowned Grand Old Opry House stage, the legendary “Home of American music.” The young island musician was performing as part of the National Association for Music Education’s 2015 All-American Concert Band, an elite ensemble — a kind of all-star national youth concert band — made up of selected high schoolaged music students from across the United States and overseas in military base schools as well. An impressive feat, especially considering that only a few short years ago she didn’t want anything to do with making music. “I actually wasn’t very good my first year,” Tutty, who began playing the flute in fifth grade at Sakai Intermediate School under the direction of Ralph Burton, laughed. “I was pretty bad, actually. I was behind everybody and I wanted to quit.” Then her mother Laurel Tutty said she should give it more time, and sought out a private instructor. “I said, ‘Before you quit, why don’t we try some private lessons?’” Laurel said. “’And then, you can at least know if you like it or not. At least be sure.’”
A little extra attention quickly reminded Tutty why she’d wanted to play an instrument in the first place, and as her skills improved, so too did her love for being part of an ensemble. She’s also added a few instruments to her repertoire. “I play piano and flute and ukulele,” she said. “But ukulele is just for fun, and piano is to help me understand music more. So I don’t really play it to be super talented at piano. I’m not the best piano player, but it helps me to understand a lot.” It’s that same kind of casual and humble manner which inspired Tutty’s choice of the flute. “I don’t remember if I made a big decision about it,” she said. “I didn’t really have like a big ‘Aha!’ moment. I was just in fifth grade and they made you choose an instrument, and I wasn’t sure if I wanted to play flute or clarinet and I was just kind of randomly like, ‘Oh, whatever, I’ll play the flute.’” Her road to the Grand Old Opry has been a long one, including a relentless practice schedule and performances with the school band, at her church and with the Tacoma Youth Syphony as well. “I am so proud of Hayden, her family [and] the rest of her bandmates,” Chris Thomas, Bainbridge High School director of bands, said in a recent email announcement to band parents and boosters. “I can’t wait to hear about her amazing experiences rehearsing and performing with the AllNational Concert Band.” Playing with the ensemble is the reward

Bainbridge High flutist Hayden Tutty traveled to Nashville, Tennessee recently to perform with the National Association for Music Education’s 2015 All-American Concert Band, one of the group’s elite ensembles made up of 673 of the most talented music students from across the United States and overseas in military base schools. after the arduous audition process, Thomas said. “To earn this opportunity,” he explained, “Hayden successfully auditioned into the All-Northwest Symphony Orchestra last winter. That placement earned her the right to record a video
audition for the All-National program, where she was to go against the best players from the rest of the country.” A few months later, he said, they got the good news. TURN TO FLUTIST | A20
Zach Fleury to rock Lynwood with special guest Lydia Ramsey BY REVIEW STAFF
Zach Fleury doesn’t sound like anyone else, but he’s played with almost everyone. The island musician’s work includes collaborations with Noah Gundersen, Hot Bodies in Motion, Allen Stone, Macklemore and even some film scoring for Lionsgate Films, and has drawn critical comparison between the young troubadour and the likes of Jack Johnson and Van Morrison. Fleury tends to fly beneath the radar, but, if you’re tuned in properly, his signal will get you where you want to go. He will play a special concert event at 8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 7 at the Treehouse Café, joined by Indianola tunesmith Lydia Ramsey.
Whether he’s vamping to his own songs and their unique perspective on modern life and love or rendering his version of classics like “Crazy Love” by Morrison, Fleury’s unorthodox vocal soaring, held down by his deadly bassist’s sense of rhythm, combine to form a rare sound combo. A multi-instrumentalist and songwriter, Ramsey collects ancient music making devices, and her songs feature those instruments in unique arrangements, all the while backing up her unmistakable voice. Her tracks convey both the wildness and free nature of the great Northwest and are steeped in the fingerpicking rudiments of Photo courtesy of Treehouse Café

Rediscover vintage records, eclectic tomes at Backstreet Beat BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Starting a new business for the first time at age 64 isn’t exactly the retirement advice doled out by most financial planners. But what do they know? When staff reductions led to the loss of his position at the Art Institute of Seattle, long-time photography teacher and noted island artist Raymond Gendreau decided to be his own boss and finally follow a dream that had been persistently in the back of his mind for many years: to open his own vintage shop. Though experienced at operating a commercial photography studio, Gendreau had long toyed with the idea of turning his weekly appearances at the Fremont Sunday Market and eBay dealings into more traditional entrepreneurship in a place all his own. Gendreau was seriously into vinyl since it was cool the first time, and his new store in downtown Winslow, Backstreet Beat, offers adventurous customers the chance to treasure hunt through the best of his epic and personally curated trove of records, CDs and books, the result of decades of travel, collecting, buying and selling. The shop — located at 265 Winslow Way East, Suite 102, down the ivy-adorned alley between Danger and the former location of The Traveler — is one of the only retail outlets offering secondhand records in the entire county. Its wares include items ranging across the collectible scale, from cheap paperbacks to fine first editions and from common vinyl standards to rare and precious pressings. His collection includes somewhere in the neighborhood of 10,000 records, Gendreau said — of which about 2,000 will be in the store at any one time — and literally more books than he can count. Eclecticism and discovery are the order of the day at Backstreet Beat, so don’t expect any neat computerized inventory or this month’s must-read crowd pleaser. You’ll have to be a little braver in here. Bring your interests and your sense of adventure, Gendreau said, and you will undoubtedly

Raymond Gendreau, owner and operator of Backstreet Beat, has spent decades buying, selling and collecting vintage records and secondhand books — items ranging across the collectibility scale from cheap paperbacks to fine first editions, from common vinyl standards to preciously rare pressings — which are for sale at the downtown Winslow shop, which will mark its grand opening Sunday, Nov. 1. uncover a wonderful surprise — maybe even a new favorite. “It’s the kind of a bookstore where you don’t go in saying, ‘I want this.’ You go in and say, ‘What’s here for me?’” Gendreau said. His shelves are generally arranged by genre — you’ll find Jack Kerouac and Hunter S. Thompson sitting chummily beside Charles Bukowski in a section he likes to call “Beats and Bad Habits” — and his records are displayed the same way, from classical to rock ‘n’ roll and punk to “the oddball stuff,” he explained. An unwavering vinyl collector himself, Gendreau said that even he was surprised when the format came roaring back into popularity as of late, and he strives to reflect the changing interests of new collectors in the albums he stocks. “It’s kind of like a second resurgence because it came back about 10 years ago just a little bit and now it’s come back even more,” he said. “The interesting thing that’s happened is that [record shows and shops] used to be like a reunion, an old folks reunion with all these old guys with their little notebooks going through trying to fill the gaps in their collection, and now it’s a lot more young people — and surprisingly — it’s a lot more
women.” With this new breed of young collector, Gendreau said, has come fresh predominant interests and tastes in the vinyl market. “The scope of what people want has broadened out,” he said. “I couldn’t give away a Joan Baez record 10 years ago. Judy Collins, Joan Baez, Simon and Garfunkel, that stuff has got a following [now].” That’s interesting, but let’s cut to the chase. So, honestly, does music sound better on vinyl? Gendreau said yes — sort of. “People ask, ‘Does it sound better?’ Well, it sounds better because you play it through a system that sounds better,” he explained. “I think mostly it’s just kind of a reaction to digital technology,” Gendreau said of vinyl’s return. “When you listen to things
on earbuds and your computer, it’s a really lousy way of listening to music,” he added. Despite the proliferation and ease of digital content, it is the sheer fun of collecting, Gendreau said, that primarily ensures the continued popularity of physical media. “The object is kind of cool,” he said. “I think it’s the same thing with books. You can read a lot of stuff on a Kindle, but there’s a lot of stuff that’s not on a Kindle that’s really weird and really interesting and this is the place where you’re going to find it.” In addition to domestic discoveries, Gendreau said he is especially proud to have the chance to introduce readers to many international authors, a group who also receive their own special section in the shop, whose work he has collected. “Stuff that’s not main-

stream,” he explained. “Authors from Africa, Latin America [and] Eastern Europe. A lot of these people end up winning major awards, like the Nobel Prize for Literature, but we don’t know them that well.” Some current fictional staples, however, will be markedly absent. “I can safely say that there will be no ‘Twilight’ in here,” Gendreau laughed. “But there will be John Green. He’s worth adults reading, so I’ll have him. Nora Roberts? She won’t be available, she’ll be having coffee with James Patterson.” Having coffee, that is, someplace other than Backstreet Beat. Adorning the walls of the shop will be framed album covers, yet another unique aspect of vinyl that Gendreau feels contributed greatly to the medium’s resurgence, as well as his own original pho-
tography. The island lensman’s work has appeared in full-page spreads for the likes of Alaska Airlines, Texas Monthly and on the cover of Time magazine, as well as in a recent Bainbridge Island Museum of Art solo exhibition. Bainbridge Island, where he and his family have lived for nearly 30 years, Gendreau said, is the perfect place for the kind of soulful secondhand shop he’s always wanted to own. “It’s a great community; it’s supportive,” he said. “I think that Bainbridge needs to kind of stay funky. It can’t get too precious.” Backstreet Beat will mark its grand opening Sunday, Nov. 1 and will be open daily from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Call 206-780-6721 for more information.

BIMA’s installation, in the museum’s Orientation Gallery, will feature a self-guided ofrenda flanked by two large textile works created
by island artist Araceli Cruz. BIMA will unveil the ofrenda at an opening reception at 10:30 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 1 with face painting and tissue paper flower activities from noon to 2 p.m. and public remembrances starting at 11:30 a.m. Visitors are invited to add a photo or momento of a loved one to the altar all week long.

and songs for voice and piano. On the faculty of the University of Texas at Austin in the Butler School of Music for the past eleven years, Rowley’s performance of Schumann’s “C major Fantasy, Op. 17,” not only won the Austin Critics’ Table award for Instrumentalist of the Year, but was also named one of the 10 Best Performances of Music and Dance by the Austin Chronicle. The concert concludes with Carl Nielsen’s “Symphony No. 3,” for which soprano Victoria Robertson and baritone Charles Robert Stephens join the orchestra for the wordless vocal solos in the second movement. Robertson makes her BSO debut with this concert. Having previously performed with the San Diego Symphony, Opera Santa Barbara and the San Diego Opera, Robertson is currently touring as a concert singer throughout the country and Europe. Stephens’ career spans a wide variety of roles and styles in opera and concert music. He has been hailed by the New York Times as a “baritone of smooth distinction,” and makes his second appear-

Bainbridge High theater brings Shakespeare to Seattle in ’90s style BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Everything comes back into style if you wait long enough. It’s a truism so written into our culture as to be unchallengeable, and one proven again — and quite stylishly so — by the latest production of the Bainbridge High School theater, which combines the eternal themes of love, violence and fate with the already returning trends of the ‘90s and the slang of Shakespeare’s day into a very different take on “Romeo and Juliet.” Perhaps the Bard’s best known work, the classic romantic tragedy has been reworked by the show’s cast and crew to feature the music of Nirvana and Green Day — performed by the high school band Overcast — and also to take a stab at some truly topical themes like parental ambivalence and the impact of gun vio-
lence on teenagers. “This production is Shakespeare’s script, with a contemporary twist and a few surprises,” said Karen Polinsky, who is helming the project as both the show’s director and the new school theater director. Changes abound, beyond even soundtrack and setting. For example, Shakespeare’s comic character “The Nurse” has been exchanged for Rosaline (Romeo’s initial crush), who is now cast as Juliet’s bodyguard and confidante. The scheming Friar Lawrence is now Bill Nye the Science Guy, the ‘90s Disney/PBS TV scientist. The staples of the story, however, remain the same. The young angst-ridden paramours still come from rival families — or gangs, in this case — and are supposed to be archenemies when they fall in love. Both Romeo, BHS senior
Trent Craighead, and Juliet, sophomore Emery Anderson, are making their BHS stage debut in this production, though Craighead has performed with both Bainbridge Performing Arts and Ovation! Performing Arts Northwest. He was originally slated to be the production’s sound engineer before landing the part of Romeo. “The story really, really intrigues me,” he explained. “It’s set over the course of three or four days and all of this happens in so small of a time span and it’s so detailed and so in-depth.” Anderson agreed, adding that she had originally tried out for a different part in the show before being cast as Juliet. “They experience love, sex and death so quickly,” she said of the titular couple. “And, I think it’s really a testament to how much teenagers feel and how little the

The prep work to get immersed in the style and trends of the ‘90s wasn’t actually as hard as they thought it would be at first, both leads agreed. “The ‘90s are making a
comeback, fashion-wise,” Anderson said. “So a lot of what I’m wearing on stage is my own clothes. I did do a little bit of ‘90s fashion exploration and I found I have a lot of what was being worn. I have the chunky white shoes. I have the scrunchies. “All this is coming back,” she laughed. Craighead said, for him, inspiration was more sonic than sartorial. “I listened to a lot of grunge music these past couple of weeks,” he said. “More so than I probably ever have.” The final decision to change the setting to something a little closer to home,
Polinsky said, was a popular one early on in the show’s production. “We brainstormed and it kind of came out of a group process,” she explained. “We talked about the play and about what it really meant and we had the best discussion. I’m an English teacher and, after I left, I was like, ‘Wow. If my English classes could be like that every day I would be so happy.’ Because they cared so much. They’d all read the play very carefully and there was a very active debate about what kind of spin to put on the play.” Though most of the play’s original dialogue is still there, the BHS version makes allowances for more modern jokes and, of course, the main social issues the students were looking to address, the director said. “I’m surprised at how it all came together and I think the kids are really proud of it,” she said. “They all know what we’re doing and why we’re doing it.” The BHS production of “Romeo and Juliet” will run from 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5 through Saturday, Nov. 14 at the high school theater. Tickets will be for sale at the door. Admission is $12 ($8 for students).

Fright fanatic’s five favorite films Part II BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
The Review’s Arts/ Entertainment reporter — and resident scary movie junkie — Luciano Marano, unveils here his second annual list of the five horror movies you should be watching this Halloween. Anyone can celebrate the spookiest time of year by cranking up “Nightmare on Elm Street” AGAIN, or “Halloween” for the millionth time. Yes, they are great movies and classics of the genre, of course. But, if you’re fed up with Freddy and can’t stand the thought of one more oblivious babysitter, maybe this year you should start a new terrifying tradition and check out one of these lesser known, or unfairly forgotten, fright flicks. “The Conjuring” (2013) This chilling offering from director James Wan (he of “Saw” infamy) seems to have slipped by a lot of fright fans, and that’s a shame because it’s a good one. Based on the actual accounts of famed paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, the story follows the demon-fighting couple as they work to help a family terrorized by a dark presence in their newly purchased eerie country estate. With a sequel supposedly due out early next year, now’s the perfect time to check out this cult favorite to be. “We Are Still Here” (2015) In the cold, wintery fields of middle of nowhere New England, a lonely old house wakes up every 30 years — and demands a sacrifice. The demonic domicile’s

newest residents, Paul and Anne, have moved from the city looking for some privacy and a fresh start after their teenage son is killed in a car crash. But the grieving couple and their visiting New Age hippie friends quickly come face to face with the house’s horrifying spirits. Truly worth a watch, this movie combines a foreboding sense of doom with a stark atmosphere to be terrifying before a single line is even spoken. “Let the Right One In” (2008) The U.S. remake was hailed by critics and fans alike (including Stephen King himself) as awesome. And it was. But, if you haven’t already, you owe it to yourself to check out the Swedish original. Based on the novel by John Ajvide Lindqvist, “Let the Right One In” relates the story of 12-year-old Oskar, a meek and often bullied boy who innocently befriends his new neighbor — a little girl named Eli, who is actually a vampire. This one is truly terrifying, as the young friends’ relationship blooms and then quickly rots into a putrid partnership of shared hate and violence. “Wolfen” (1981) It’s not often that a monster movie attempts to impart a higher moral lesson to us and doesn’t come off as preachy, but they got it right with this one in ‘81.

Based on the novel by Whitley Strieber (the author of “Communion”), this is a totally novel kind of werewolf movie, one with an effective environmentalism kicker to boot. Albert Finney plays a cop on the trail of a mystery animal responsible for several unusual deaths. Tracking it through the desolate, dreary underbelly of abandoned buildings and urban ruins of early ‘80s New York, he begins to believe the murders may be the work of a creature from American Indian legends, one with the body of a wolf and the mind of a man. “Psycho II” (1983) I know. I know. Just hear me out. Everyone remembers how the original ends, but I’m willing to bet you never gave the sequel much of a chance — and that was a mistake. Picking up 22 years after Alfred Hitchcock’s classic left off, Norman Bates is being released from the asylum and returning home to attempt to pick up his life and be normal. But the arrival of a beautiful young girl to his melancholy motel, as well as the bullying of the man who has been running the business in his absence (a marvelous turn by the peerless Dennis Franz) and the insistent specter of the notorious Mother Bates herself, soon combine to drive ol’ Norman Bates back toward murder.

“I think I was kind of in shock,” Tutty said of her initial reaction. “It didn’t really hit me for a while. I was kind of like, ‘Oh, it’s so far away.’ And I always thought that maybe they made a mistake with picking me? Because I didn’t even think my audition tape was that good. “I kind of just sent it in [and] I was like, ‘Oh, what the heck? It can’t hurt to try,’” she added. “So, when I sent it in and [Thomas] said I got in I was in a lot of shock and then I was really excited after that because I knew

this was such a great opportunity.” Tutty said she practices at least eight to 10 hours a week, and also enjoys playing tennis regularly and tutors other students in chemistry twice a week. She plans to study music at college next year and hopes someday to play professionally with an orchestra. “There’s so much depth to it,” Tutty said of classic symphony music. “My favorite part is to be playing in an orchestra,” she added. “If I’ve listened to the song before, and now I’m a part of it, I’m part of the layers, that’s the coolest part to me, is that I’m part of creating this really amazing thing.”
ing rooted deeply in musical discovery and invention, her earliest inspirations came from her exploration on the piano, through the music of Chopin, Bill Evans, Debussy and Bach. When she began playing guitar, she drew inspiration from traditional folk artists.

Twice the dedication... twice the client satisfaction.
Buddhism teaches that the four sufferings of birth, aging, sickness and death are an inescapable part of life. The important thing is not to be defeated by them. Thanks to my parents, I’ve already had a victory over the first one. So that leaves aging, sickness and, inevitably, death. Ever since I got my Medicare card in the mail, I’ve been reflecting on what it means to be 65 years old and moving closer to the end of this life. As a child and teenager who suffered from severe depression, I was too afraid of the present to expend energy worrying about the future, much less old age. Most of the older people I knew back then seemed full of regret and suffering. It wasn’t until I started a spiritual practice in 1969 that I got a glimpse of a different way to age — one full of hope and vitality instead of fear and sadness. Youthfulness originates from life force. There are
Interfaith

young people who are disillusioned and there are elderly people who, no matter how the years pass, sparkle with the glow of youthful inner vitality. Still, I can’t ignore the fact that my body has slowed down. Slight injuries now have greater consequences. A hurt lower back that might have kept me in bed for a few days recently took two years to recover from. Through this experience, I learned that my mental attitude significantly affects my ability to heal. And, my daily Buddhist practice gives me the wisdom and strength to influence my mind and, accordingly, to lessen my physical and emotional suffering. So, youth has nothing to do with chronological age. Instead, it reflects our ability to consistently maintain a hopeful, flexible and tolerant mind.
Unfortunately, right when I am experiencing love for the whole world, I will encounter someone in person or in the news that triggers negative feelings. Of course, this “stress” is usually what I need to cause me to continue to evolve into a more enlightened, compassionate person. While not always with open arms, I do welcome these opportunities. There is a saying that goes: “To a fool, old age is a bitter winter; to a wise person it is a golden time.” Without the support of a loving family and friends, my winter would be bitter indeed. I’m so grateful that this doesn’t have to be the case. And I look forward to laughing well into my nineties! Mike Lisagor lives with his wife, Trude, on Bainbridge Island. They are members of the Soka Gakkai International — a very diverse Nichiren Buddhist lay organization of more than 12 million people in 192 countries.

Poulsbo man arrested for alleged molestation of Bainbridge girl BY REVIEW STAFF
A 36-year-old Poulsbo man was charged with second-degree child molestation after authorities alleged he repeatedly sexually assaulted a Bainbridge Island girl who was the pre-teen daughter of his employer. The man was arrested Oct. 7 for child molestation. Police arrested the man after the victim, now 16, and her mother reported him to police in mid-August. The accused man, who worked for the landscaping
business run by the victim’s mother, allegedly started assaulting the girl while he once lived with the family on Bainbridge. The girl told police that the abuse started in the sixth grade, when she was 11 or 12, and that the man would try to kiss and grope her. The victim told police she would protest and push away, and the abuse happened “a lot” — every other day for four years. The victim said it happened hundreds of times and she was afraid to come home. The girl said the man
was normal when he wasn’t drinking, but when he was, he became “unreasonable, terrifying really.” The victim also recounted instances when she was in the seventh and eighth grades where the man tried to assault her, but asked her not to say anything because he would go to jail. The victim’s claims were later corroborated by her best friend, also now 16, who said she had been told about the incidents and the man’s drinking.
Bainbridge blotter
Police interviewed the man on Oct. 7 at the Bainbridge police station while the man’s lawyer was present. According to police, the man’s attorney stopped the questioning after a few minutes. The suspect was then arrested and booked into Kitsap County Jail on $30,000 bail. He was charged with felony child molestation in Kitsap County District Court on Oct. 8. Conviction of second-degree child molestation can result in a maximum 10-year prison sentence and a $20,000 fine.
Selected reports from the Bainbridge Island Police Department blotter. TUESDAY, OCT. 27 7:30 a.m. An employee with the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District informed police of a hit-and-run which occurred on Sunday morning destroying a 4x4 railing on Teem Loop Road. Police learned that a silver Mercedes ML320 had backed into the railing, which was used for a handicap ramp. The witness had the car’s license plate number and, after speaking with the driver, police learned that he had intended to call and report the incident, but “family circumstances prevented him from calling right away.” Statements were taken from both parties and a park district official said they would contact their insurance, but did not wish to pursue any charges.

SATURDAY, OCT. 24 11:39 a.m. A 52-year-old woman reported that, while walking her dog in the area of Ericksen Avenue and Knechtel Way, she saw a lady in a blue SUV who she believed was taking pictures of her. She said she did not know the lady. The officer reported also having seen the woman in the blue SUV earlier in that same area while on patrol. A second officer later confirmed also having seen the woman on a different street and said that he believed the woman was taking pictures of various trees. 2:10 p.m. A 45-year-old man called police to his Lewis Place NW residence. Kids, he said, had been coming up to his door and either knocking or ringing the bell and then running away for the last two years. When either the resident or his wife would come to the door, the kids would either be gone or they would be seen running away. He said they now have a vehicle, a dark colored “Jetta” type, that they use for their escape. He said he did not know who might be responsible specifically, but said that in the past his house had been egged and also toilet papered. Police advised the man to immediately call 911 the next time such an incident occurred. 4:22 p.m. A 50-year-old Bainbridge man reported that his ex-wife was not following the parenting plan that they have in place regarding their teenage son. The man said he had not seen his son for a few months. Police advised the man to contact his attorney.
Friday, October 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review The man wanted the incident documented and asked that police call his ex-wife. Police did so and got the woman’s voicemail and left a message informing her of her ex-husband’s complaint. 5:40 p.m. A 56-year-old man driving a 2003 Ford Explorer made a U-turn while traveling east on Bjune Drive and a 62-year-old woman driving a 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander westward was unable to stop before colliding into him. The man was gone when police arrived, so a card was left on his vehicle asking him to call police. He called the next day and his account of the crash was the same as the other driver, saying it had been his fault. He gave insurance information to the police over the phone. FRIDAY, OCT. 23 3 p.m. Police were dispatched to Rhododendron Apartments where an intoxicated 52-year-old man was being verbal with a tenant and everybody else. The man was shouting, cursing and threatening to beat up people. One responding officer knew that the man had a misdemeanor warrant for malicious mischief. The warrant was confirmed and then, as the man was becoming even louder and more belligerent, police arrested him on the warrant. He was transported to Kitsap County Jail. THURSDAY, OCT. 22 11:45 a.m. Police were dispatched to a bicycle accident at NE Koura Road and Blue Pond Place. A witness advised police that she had been driving down NE Koura Road when she saw the cyclist, a 68-year-old woman, lying on the side of the road. She then called 911 and offered to transport the woman’s bicycle back to her home.
The cyclist was being tended to by paramedics and confirmed that there were no other vehicles involved; she had run over a pothole and crashed. The cyclist had facial lacerations and was transported to Seattle for treatment. She had been wearing a helmet. 3:42 p.m. An employee at an auto repair shop on Olympic Drive reported a theft. The employee said that one hour earlier a man had come into the shop and asked if they worked on foreign cars. The employee said yes and the man left. He then returned a short while later and asked if they worked on Chryslers and the employee again said yes. The man left, walking toward Winslow Way. The employee then noticed his cell phone was missing, which he typically leaves on the counter in the office. He remembered that when the man had first come in he had been working on a car and the man had been alone in the office for about two minutes. The employee said he had never seen the man before and provided a description. Police were unable to locate any man in the area who matched the description. WEDNESDAY, OCT. 21 3:07 p.m. A 36-year-old woman reported that firewood had been stolen from her Battle Point Drive residence. She said she noticed a few pieces of firewood missing from day to day from her wood pile. The incidents began within the last two weeks. She estimated about 14 pieces of firewood have been taken so far. She did not know who might be taking her firewood, but said she suspects the groundskeeper at an adjacent home. She plans on putting in a remote camera and advising police of her findings later on.

Bainbridge man arrested after police investigate string of burglaries on island BY REVIEW STAFF
A Bainbridge Island man was arrested Sunday for first-degree trafficking in stolen property and third-degree possession of stolen property, and authorities allege he was involved in a string of nine burglaries on the island — plus eight more in Poulsbo and Silverdale — over the past three months. Zachary Joseph Nelson, 34, was charged with second-degree trafficking in stolen property in Kitsap County District Court on
Monday, Oct. 26. Bainbridge police said Nelson is one of three suspects in a recent spike of burglaries and thefts reported on the island. Authorities allege that Nelson sold a gold ring that was set with a single pearl to a pawn show in Bremerton in September. The ring had been taken, along with other jewelry, from a burglary at a home on Reitan Road in mid-September. Nelson’s arrest came after police found a copy of a pawn slip for the ring,
which was dated Sept. 16, in the purse of one of his acquaintances, another suspect in the string of recent burglaries and thefts, which Bainbridge police said started in August and continued into early October. The crime spree, which included three burglaries in Poulsbo and five in Silverdale, followed the same pattern as the island thefts. The slip showed that Nelson pawned the ring at Bremerton Cash America and received $60 in return. Police found the pawn slip
on Oct. 8, then retrieved the ring from the pawn shop. A photograph of the ring was shown to the victim of the Reitan Road burglary, and she identified the ring as one of the things stolen during the break-in at her home. Police arrested Nelson Oct. 25 and he told police that he was a friend of the woman who had the pawn slip for the stolen ring in her purse. Nelson told police that the woman gave him the ring and asked him to sell it at the pawn shop because she
didn’t have identification. He said his friend told him she loved him, but added that she was also a heroin addict. Nelson allegedly told police that he “should have known” the ring was stolen. He also told police that he knew John Vincent Napora IV, a 37-year-old Bremerton man who was arrested earlier this month after police accused him of trafficking in stolen property. Napora was allegedly caught selling a bicycle that had been stolen from the storage area of a home on Wood Avenue on
Bainbridge. That theft, which happened on Oct. 2 or Oct. 3, was also one in the recent string of crimes on the island. Nelson told police he did not know anything about the recent burglaries and thefts on Bainbridge. Nelson was booked into Kitsap County Jail Sunday night. Bail was set at $50,000. Conviction of second-degree trafficking in stolen property can result in a maximum prison sentence of five years and a $10,000 fine.

BRINGIN’ THE PAIN TO SPAIN
Bainbridge boxers prep for world title bouts BY LUCIANO MARANO
“Now I finally feel like I’m ready. I have to kind of calm myself down and trust the process.”
Bainbridge Island Review
After a big trip abroad, most people bring home memories, photographs and maybe a few fun souvenirs. Laura Swanson and Josh Soliva will be bringing home bruises. A lot of bruises. And, hopefully, a world title or two. The two tough islanders, undefeated nationally-ranked fighters with the Bainbridge Boxing Gym team, are traveling to Spain on Sunday, Nov. 1 to compete at the World Kickboxing Association’s World Championship event. Earlier this year, the Bainbridge team, coached and managed by Ben Little, traveled to the World Kickboxing Association’s National Championships, where Soliva claimed a spot in the 139.9-pound men’s bracket and Swanson in the 118.8-pound women’s bracket. Both fighters were then invited to represent Bainbridge Island and the United States in Benindorm, Spain as part of Team USA, a collection of the best fighters from around the country, at the largest amateur world kickboxing competition on the planet. The team sought community support via an online fundraising campaign, and they raised more than half the total amount they were seeking — as well as a few

he said. “They were running 5K in the morning and then that turned into interval sprints, so after that they were sprinting three miles. During the sprinting, they were doing strength and conditioning in the afternoons and then they went to class and did two hours of Muay Thai. “We had injuries,” he added. “Josh got injured a
couple of times, rolled his ankle, dislocated his arm. Laura had a head injury, a foot injury and then also passed out from an electrolyte imbalance.” In the last two weeks before departure, the fighters were scaling back their training schedule so as to not overdo anything, Little said. “Their camp was hard,”
Spartans still sterling after perfect water polo weekend BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Not even magical powers sported by the likes of a wizardly whiz like Harry Potter could stave off the amphibious assault of the Spartan boys varsity water polo team last weekend. The sounds of one of the popular franchise’s sorcerous sequels filled the Bainbridge Aquatic Center late last week, drifting into the Ray Williamson Pool from the adjacent Float and Float Movie Night party next door, floating
over the team’s Friday night match against Newport like the intonation of some kind of magic spell. It must have been an invincibility spell, because the Spartans emerged from that fight up 8-7 over their guests, and went on to do it again the very next day in a rare weekend home match against Kentridge, 11-8 BHS. The successive wins at home brought the team’s season record to 14-1. The island squad remains undefeated in league
matches. Rounding out their season at home this year, the Spartans hosted South Kitsap on Wednesday, Oct. 28 and, in their TURN TO SPARTANS | A30

he laughed. “They’re out the other side now, so they’re tapering and they’re just loving life.” To come home with a title, Little explained, the fighters must emerge undefeated after their five slated matches. There is no room for a do-over or second chance. “If you lose one fight, you’re gone,” he said. “You’ve got to win every
fight every time, and you’ve got to not be injured.” Soliva, 20, said last week that he was excited and ready for the competition. “It’s the opportunity of a lifetime,” he said. If he is able to go the distance and bring back to Bainbridge a world title, Soliva added, he hopes to move on to larger fight venues and possibly go pro. After getting into trouble early in life and dropping out of high school, the former Bainbridge High student said he got his act together and got his GED, and the discipline of training that comes with boxing was a big part of that transformation for him. Swanson, 32, said she also feels, “stoked” and ready to go. “It’s definitely intimidating,” she said. “I have to do a lot of mental preparation to not psych myself out. “Now I finally feel like I am ready,” Swanson added. “I have to kind of calm myself down and trust the TURN TO BOUTS | A30

Sports roundup Spartans score football win SEATTLE - The Bainbridge High School varsity football team scored their second win of the season Friday, Oct. 23 on the road in a non-conference faceoff against the winless Evergreen High Wolverines. The final score was 14-7 BHS. This second success, the first win since the team’s homecoming game against Ingraham on Sept. 25, advanced the Spartan overall record to 2-6 (1-4, league) and earned them the 14th spot overall in the Metro standings, ahead of Lakeside and Franklin. Bainbridge remains in the fifth spot amongst the six Metro Mountain teams. The Spartan win came at the tail end of a dismal three-game losing streak, which started with their 21-19 defeat against Lakeside on Oct. 2 at Memorial Stadium. BHS touchdowns were scored by Adrian Rojas and Kyle Bierly. Rojas rushed 14 times for 60 yards and Bierly managed 10 carries for 79 yards. Jacob Hogger went two-for-six and Jackson Taylor one-for-one as well. The Spartans passing game left something to be desired, with both Michael Greenwood (0-1) and Gannon Winker (0-3) ultimately unable to complete a pass. Defensively, the numbers were better. Jackson Almodover managed 10 solo tackles, including a .5 sack for a loss of six yards. Christian Nonga had nine solo tackles, Bierly had eight solo and one assist, Lucas Weyand finished the night with seven solo tackles and Quinton Blevins had five solo and one assist as well. Tanner Shattuck was again perfect and went two-for-two in conversions. The game was homecoming for the Wolverines, but, even before this latest loss, there hasn’t been much to celebrate this year for Evergreen fans. The team is currently 0-8 overall (0-5 in Seamount play), and has been winless at home (0-4) and on the road (0-4). There’ve been some pretty big blowouts
this season for Evergreen as well: 34-0 against Highline; 52-0 against Renton; and 52-0 against Hazen. The Wolverines have lost their last two games by forfeits, first against Kennedy Catholic and then against Lindbergh. The biggest Evergreen heartbreak this season goes well beyond any score, however. The Wolverines are reeling from the death of a football player from on-field injuries that happened during an Oct. 2 game against Highline. Kenney Bui, 17, a senior wide receiver and defensive back, died three days after sustaining a severe head injury in the fourth quarter of the Highline game. The game Friday was Evergreen’s first return to the field since the tragedy. BHS students made a banner offering condolences to the Evergreen gridders in remembrance of Bui, which they presented at the game. Their homecoming loss against the Spartans was the Wolverine’s last time to take the field this year, as their slated matchup next week against Foster High was canceled. The Spartans have one more game on their regular season schedule, and will play on the road against Nathan Hale at 7 p.m. Friday, Oct. 30.
Holy Names tops Spartans at home BAINBRIDGE - The Spartans came up short in their final home varsity volleyball contest last week in Paski Gymnasium, and lost to Holy Names Academy in three games, 3-0. The win pushed Holy Names to 7-3 in conference play (11-4 overall) while BHS fell to 1-9, 4-10.

BHS tennis team pioneers new leadership model for next season BY REVIEW STAFF
The Bainbridge High School varsity tennis team has crafted a new style of teamwork that goes beyond just playing the game and looks to enhance students’ leadership and managerial skills as well. In previous years, team officials explained, the team’s two or three co-captains were chosen by a vote of team members. According to Spartan Head Coach Jennifer Shorr, voting candidates were limited to seniors and the outcome was heavily influenced by popularity. The team will now be forgoing the selection of co-captains in the upcoming 2016 season, Shorr said, in favor of this new idea. “There are more than two to three players, especially on the Bainbridge team, that have excellent leadership skills and they get left out of that process,” said Assistant Coach Michael Lebeau. “You don’t have to be the best tennis player to have natural leader-

process.” Swanson said that she also has hopes of fighting professionally and an international win would help her get better promotions and be eligible for more prestigious venues. For a comparatively young gym to have two relatively inexperienced fighters nationally ranked and undefeated is an impressive achievement, but one that Little said is a shared victory for the whole team. “I don’t know that I can take credit for all of it,” he
Coach Jennifer Shorr ship skills, or for those skills to be valuably used. This new paradigm will utilize these natural leadership skills.” Shorr and Lebeau call their new paradigm the “Leadership Circle,” and outlined the new system in a recent statement. Now, the team will be led from within by a group of varsity players chosen for higher-level positions based on initiative, passion and the ability to lead their peers. “It’s not just an honorary title,” Lebeau said. “We let them tell us what their vision for the team is, what they’d like to bring to the team, what changes they’d like

I had a gym down on Eighth and Thomas [in Seattle], and nobody was this dedicated.

final outing of the regular season, Curtis High on Thursday, Oct. 29. In Friday’s 8-7 nail-biter against Newport, goals were scored by Miles Hogger (four), Harrison Shinohara (two), Sam Kapel (one) and Sam Chapman (one). In Saturday’s 11-8 match against Kentridge, goals were scored by Jem Bullock (seven), Hogger (two), Shinohara (one) and Mason Ogden (one).

to make and what things to introduce.” The six members of the first BHS Leadership Circle, as announced recently, are Eli Wagner, Maxwell Brown, Samantha Jiang, Ellie Van Slyke, Quinn Dassel and Elizabeth Viele. “Every member of the Leadership Circle brings a different aspect,” said Van Slyke, a BHS junior. “I like that about tennis: it’s such a diverse sport, and with such different kids involved in the Leadership Circle, it’ll be a little taste of everything.” The group has already begun to develop ideas in advance of the upcoming season. New ideas so far include running after-school strength and conditioning training sessions before the season starts to ensure that everyone is prepared for the intense schedule of play; organizing social events early on to help all the team members get to know each other; acting as mentors to JV players to foster more integration across the
to who they both are as people.” Boxing is a cinematic sport, and the rough lives of up-and-coming fighters has been chronicled in dozens of silver screen stories. It’s a nice story with the right uplifting ending attached, Little said, but it rarely reflects the reality of a working boxers’ existence. “It’s a tormented life,” he said. “Everyone’s life is tormented. The basic underlying factor of the human condition is suffering. We’re all suffering. We all have pain; we’re all dealing with it in our own ways. This gives you camaraderie and a light at the end of the tunnel,
Next weekend, she explained, the team will travel to the regional tournament at Rogers High School. “Our West League will match up against the top four in the North [Roosevelt, Bellevue, Mercer Island, and either Newport or Shorewood depending on their game Oct. 27],” she said. The top four from regionals move on to state, which is the following weekend, Nov. 14 and 15, at Curtis High School. The team was set up as well as they could be going into the year’s final matches, the coach said. “As first seed in the West, we’ll start play against the North’s fourth seed — either Shorewood or Newport,” Gellert said. “It’s a double elimination tournament. We have a decent shot at making it to state, but no game there will be easy.”
whole tennis program; and creating an open and supportive atmosphere for all their teammates. Wagner, a junior, is looking forward to what he calls “a great new way to handle a team,” and will enjoy, “seeing how everyone on the team has progressed throughout the year.” The Leadership Circle’s most important duty, Lebeau said, is acting as role models for the other team members. “Above everything else, all of it falls under the rubric of being the best role model possible,” he said. “It’s not just about being a good player; it’s about having full commitment to the most appropriate intentions. We want to give our players a chance to make the contributions that they haven’t had a chance to make before, and make it possible for them to grow and develop leadership skills. “This will not only benefit them greatly,” he added. “But, as role models, they will inspire other team members, making a stronger
team.” Viele, a senior, is enthusiastic about the new approach. “I think that we are going to come together as a team more than in previous years,” he said. “And I think that will really change our team dynamic for the better. I love tennis, and I want everyone to have a good experience.” Fellow senior Dassel agreed, saying, “I think the Leadership Circle will be more behind the scenes, but it will allow us to be more responsive to what the team needs. We can tailor our after-school practices to what each individual player needs to improve. We will be more organized and efficient, but it won’t take away from the overall team experience.” “I am excited about the Leadership Circle because it will allow a great group of tennis players to come together and share ideas for the betterment of the team,” concurred Jiang, a BHS TURN TO LEADERSHIP | A31
meaning, if you can channel whatever it is you’ve got inside you into this, you can make something out of whatever hand you were dealt.” Boxing, he said, is delightfully real. “You don’t have to be anybody you’re not,” Little said. “Whereas, a lot of other forms of success in life need you to be something else.”

City OKs plans for rowing center BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge Island Planning Commission has unanimously approved design plans for a rowing center in Waterfront Park. Bainbridge Island Rowing officials said that the facility will enable them to expand both Junior and Master programs and better meet the community’s growing interest in the sport of rowing. The new rowing center is designed to be a 12,000-square-foot, two-story structure to be located on the eastern edge of the park with boat and oar storage on the ground floor. The second floor will feature lock-

When most 14-year-olds hop on their bikes, they maybe grab a helmet and then they’re on their way. Sebastian Belkin gears up like a gladiator. Of course, his ride’s usually a little more intense than a quick jaunt ‘round the neighborhood. Belkin, 14, a freshman at Bainbridge High School, is a rising star in the extreme sport of competitive down-
hill mountain bike racing. Recently, he concluded his first serious season on the competitive circuit by bringing home the first-place medal from the Northwest Cup, the premiere mountain bike racing event in the region, in Category 2, boys age 15 to 18, at Stevens Pass. Downhill mountain biking — or “DH” — is a specific kind of bike race that is run on steep, rough tracks and

Bart’s stomach was bloody and there was a puncture wound behind his hind leg; Rasham surmised that the coyote had gripped him in his jaw, and that the momentum, from being carried, is what caused his little neck to break. “I never thought that this was a possibility; never did it even cross my mind that it would be a possibility,” Rasham said later.

Function is what it’s all about for kitchen designer BY LESLIE KELLY
More in this edition
Contributing Writer
Sure, aesthetics are important. But it’s all about function. That’s the key to creating a home that will make you happy. Just ask Molly McCabe. McCabe, a residential designer and licensed contractor, is owner of A Kitchen That Works. It’s a business she began in 2002 and since, her husband, Clive Pardy, has joined. Together, they work with builders, to design new construction, and homeowners on remodels. The business had a very simple beginning. “I was a pantry consultant,” she said. “I went into people’s kitchens to teach them how to stock a pantry so that when they came home from work at 5 p.m., they’d have everything they needed to make a nutritious meal.” Her work, which included arranging the kitchen so it made sense, was aimed at busy parents who needed help getting organized. “I showed clients where to put their pots and pans so that they were close to the stove or where they’d need them. And I taught them how to use kitchen equipment properly.” Shortly after that, a client asked if she would design her kitchen. “And it just morphed from

was working as a construction project manager and in 2010, when Washington State Department of Labor & Industries rules changed, she became a licensed contractor. “Unless you have that license,
you can’t be a project manager,” she said. Shortly after that, she convinced her husband, Clive, to come to work with her. He was previously in the banking industry.
As the business has grown, she’s designed all the rooms in a home. Whether it’s a kitchen or a bedroom, the key is functionality, she said. “Aesthetics is important, and so is ergonomics,” she said. “But the most important thing is function. Form follows function.” She usually meets with prospective clients in her showroom, which is next door to her home on Bainbridge Island. But first, she sends them a questionnaire. “It includes a list of questions they should ask me, too,” she said. “It’s a way to get to know what the client really wants and what they TURN TO KITCHEN | A33
Realtor is something special: She’ll show a house and sing a song BY LESLIE KELLY Contributing Writer

Krista Murphy helps brighten up an open house by sharing a song on her acoustic guitar.
It’s Sunday noon and Krista Murphy’s getting ready for an open house. As a real estate broker, Murphy’s already posted her sandwich board-style signs near the house she’s showing. But there’s something else she carries with her in her car to open houses. Her guitar. Yes, that’s right. Murphy, 36, is Bainbridge Island’s own singing Realtor. “It’s always up to the seller whether they want me to play,” she said. “But I love doing it.” Her music and her real estate work combine two things that she loves. After earning an associate degree in fine arts, she began creating pottery.
“But that didn’t really pay the bills,” she said. So, at 28, she studied and got her real estate license. Since then, she’s sold more than 60 homes. “I wanted a career where I could be my own boss,” she said. “I couldn’t afford to go back to school and I didn’t want to begin at the bottom in the corporate world and work my way up. So I thought about real estate.” Murphy recalled going to open houses with her mother when she was a child growing up in California. “She wasn’t a Realtor,” Murphy said, of her mother. “She just liked looking at houses. So we’d go to open houses most weekends and see all kinds of homes.” Having been married young, Murphy soon found herself divorced and having
to support herself. Her real estate work was taking off, but she needed a steady paycheck. She became a barista at the Pegasus Cafe on Bainbridge. It was there that she heard others playing music and it piqued her interest. “I’ve always been musical,” she said. “I sang in the church choir when I was young. And I had wanted to learn to play guitar, but never had.” She met Larry Dewey, a well-known musician on the island, who began teaching her guitar. “He’s so encouraging,” she said. “He’s such a good teacher.” Once she felt comfortable with her guitar, she began performing at “jam” nights at Pegasus. “I had wanted to sing at
those,” she said. “But I never could find anyone to accompany me. Once I got up to speed with the guitar, I could accompany myself.” Her music is a combination of folk and country. She is working on writing her own music, but right now plays songs made popular by Patti Griffin, Norah Jones and Sara Evans. She can also play Art Garfunkel and Bob Dylan songs. “I’ve written poetry for many years and I hope to be able to put that to music,” she said. “It’s something that I know I can do.” Since singing at Pegasus, Murphy has also sung at open mic nights at Bainbridge Island Brewing. “Playing in public is so gratifying for me,” she said.

should expect from my work. It’s all about collaboration. I require them to participate. This is not about me. It’s about them. I tell the client it’s a reflection of you and how you live.” Each project is personal, she said, and at the end of the conversation, if they agree, they write a contract for the project. She begins on the design and specifications and gives the client an estimate for the costs. And then construction begins. At any one time, her company can have as many as seven projects at various points of progress. She and her husband are hands-on and are at the project locations often throughout the remodeling process. One of the benefits of having her showroom next to her home is that she can show clients through her own home, which she redesigned and remodeled. They can see the difference between pull out closet doors, which can block hallways, or using a folding closet door which bends into the wall. She also has examples of an induction countertop

range, a steam oven and sensor faucets. In her one-stop shopping showroom, she has samples of floor coverings, countertops, hardware and everything needed to complete a remodel. She uses the Universal Design Principle: that usage of space is acceptable to anyone of any ability. “It needs to be seamless and comfortable,” she said. One of her greatest assets, she said, is that she can visualize blueprints in full color 3D. “My dad was the same way,” she said. “But I was about 40 before I figured out that not everybody sees like I do.” She tells a story about how that helps. A client was describing how he wanted the cabinets on the walls in the kitchen. “I told him that wouldn’t work because then, the door wouldn’t open,” she said. “He said ‘What do you mean?’” It was because she could see in three dimension how the finished project would be, that she saved the client from a very expensive mistake. McCabe has received many professional awards including Best In Show at
several home shows, and Best of WestSound Readers for Best Remodeler and Designer and the 2009 Environmental Construction & Design Excellence Award. She is a “Green” professional and recycles products and product waste including Styrofoam which she personally drives to Seattle for recycling. She also uses locally-made products and hires local labor. While she’s gotten to do many projects throughout a 30-mile radius, there’s still one thing she’d like to design that she hasn’t gotten the chance to. “An elevator,” she said. “Because it would be challenging. And because adding an elevator to an existing home would mean the homeowners would be able to stay in a home they love as long as they chose to, not as long as the house allows them to.” Her favorite part of her job? “Seeing the looks on the clients’ faces when they see their home once it’s finished,” she said. “They see that they can have more than they thought they could.” To find out more, go to www.akitchenthatworks. com, or call 206-780-1906.
crashed. And it’s a very competitive field.” She lives in a small cabin on the water near Sandy Hook and that is where she goes to practice her music. At any one time she may have as many as a dozen clients that she’s helping buy or sell homes. “My home is a real sanctuary,” she said. “It’s where I can work best.” To her credit, she’s accomplished a lot in real estate at a young age. But, she said, because she looks even younger than she is,

sometimes people in the real estate market don’t take her seriously. “My real niche is the baby-boomer market,” she said. And that’s where she got the idea to sing and play at open houses.
Benz joins team at Bainbridge Lending Group Bainbridge Islander and home loan expert Becky Benz is back on Bainbridge Island and joining Bainbridge Lending Group as a loan officer for the island’s only locally owned mortgage broker. Matt Culp, owner of Bainbridge Lending Group, said the addition of Benz gives his firm perhaps the deepest “braintrust of mortgage knowledge and experience available on Bainbridge Island.” Together with Culp, Tom Rees and Benz they collectively have more than 50 years in the home loan business on Bainbridge. “Islanders like to buy local, and we are truly local,” Culp said. “We all grew up on the island and all are Bainbridge High School graduates. We also live and work here and know the real estate landscape personally and professionally; that gives us a huge competitive edge, especially when someone is moving to Bainbridge from out of the area,” he said. Benz moved from Bainbridge in 2008 to Arizona and became a licensed real estate agent. “I’m really blessed to be back doing what I love best,” she said. “Sometimes, they say, you have to leave home to find home. Well, I am back home, and I’m especially pleased to be with Matt Culp and Tom Rees at Bainbridge Lending Group,” Benz added. “They are true professionals in the business.” Benz found her passion in real estate “Most of the music I play are songs that they know,” Murphy said. “They can relate to the music and enjoy it.” Recently, she was at a neighborhood party when she was asked to play. She didn’t have her guitar, so the host offered up his expensive acoustic Gibson for her to play.
and mortgage lending in the early 1990s while working for a local bank on Becky Benz Bainbridge Island. She later worked with Culp at Puget Sound Mortgage and Escrow, formerly owned by Culp’s mom, Diane, now retired. She grew up on Bainbridge in Port Madison. After graduating from BHS, she earned her degree in business administration from Washington State University. Benz then joined North Sound Bank, becoming one of the area’s most proficient mortgage professionals. “I’ve known Matt and Tom for a long time,” Benz said. “We are cut from the same cloth: Integrity and reputation is everything. Your clients rely on your expertise. What you have done in the past defines who you are today. There is no more trustworthy team than the one we have at BLG,” she adds. Since Bainbridge Lending Group is a federally licensed mortgage broker, Culp explained, his team has the ability to “shop” for their clients among many different lenders to find the right loan for them, giving customers access to wholesale broker rates. Bainbridge Lending Group, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, is headquartered at 345 Knechtel Way, Suite 200, between Madison and Ericksen avenues.
“They really liked me,” she said. “That gave me the confidence to push myself even more.” Since then, she’s offering her music as an added benefit to anyone who wants to list a house with her, or for those who happen by any of her open houses. “I just really love to sing,” she said. “And I love to share
my music with others.” To contact Murphy about real estate or music, call her at 360-917-6270. She is a broker with Bainbridge Homes and is currently studying to become a managing broker. Leslie Kelly can be reached at lkelly@soundpublishing. com or by phone at 360-779-4464 EXT 5052

favor of Prop. 1, said the existing station is unsafe and in a terrible location. The police department has made a tremendous turnaround since the arrival of Police Chief Matthew Hamner, McCloskey said, and the department’s further progress is impeded by its existing facility. “Matt can’t take the department where he wants to take it with that building,” McCloskey said. “Everybody I’ve talked to recognizes that the police department needs a new building.” “There are locational issues and there are cost issues. But everybody recognizes that they need a new building,” he added. “Matt is trying to build a department that we can be proud of, and I share that vision. The [current] building is standing in the way.” For opponents, the main argument against Prop. 1
sounds like a real estate agent’s well-worn advice: location, location, location. Critics have first assailed city officials for not pursuing a joint location with the Bainbridge Island Fire Department, a move that would have seen a new police station built along with a new fire hall on publicly owned property on Madison Avenue near Highway 305. Opponents of Prop. 1 have noted how the city’s own consultants have said a combined location with the fire department would have saved taxpayers millions. City officials nixed that idea last year, however.
Off the table McCloskey said it was debatable whether sharing a space with the fire department would have saved money. And he pointed to voter approval of a $16 million bond measure for improved fire facilities that was passed after the fire department and city went their separate ways.
“The voters of Bainbridge Island didn’t punish the fire department for a failure to reach an agreement. And I don’t think it’s appropriate to punish the police department,” he said. Opponents have also said the current location of the police station, at the corner of Winslow Way and Highway 305, should be redeveloped with a new station given its great location in the heart of downtown and right next to the island’s main thoroughfare. Prop. 1 supporters counter by pointing to the traffic tie-ups at the intersection by the current police station that happen each time the ferry from Seattle pulls in. What’s more, supporters add, money from the eventual sale of that city-owned property, along with other surplus parcels, could be used to pay off the debt on the new police station. “That looks like an awfully prime piece of real estate down at that intersection,” McCloskey said. “The city tells me if they sell these
properties they could realize somewhere between $4 million to 5 million.” Supporters have touted the greater efficiencies that could be gained by having the police department next to city hall in a government-campus style arrangement. “When you close your eyes and think, what would be the optimal location for the police department and the court, for me, the optimal location is near city hall,” McCloskey said. “It’s not that far from 305,” he added.
New trouble for Prop. 1 Prop. 1 supporters have had to adjust their message about the positive aspects of the proposed police station site next to city hall after officials acknowledged earlier this month that the property at 290 Madison Ave. North is contaminated with chlorinated dry-cleaning solvents.

Society liaison. “So really it’s about exposing them to the industry in a really active way.” Initially, she copied content from HiveBio, an open source laboratory located on the edge of the University of Washington campus of which Moore is a member. She’d watch professors, doctorate students run labs — a first go before taking them to the college setting — and think about how she might replicate them in her own classroom. She ordered cow eyes, fabricated parts using BHS’ 3D printer and invited her students to come play. “Then it just evolved,” she said. Kids kept coming back for her oddball experiments and demos, such as “How to build a microscope out of an iPhone.” But lately, Moore has started to orchestrate her own projects by building relationships with local scientists.

City officials, and Prop. 1 supporters, have said the cleaning up the pollution on the property is another reason to vote “yes” on the ballot measure. The city is the best-suited entity to manage the cleanup, officials have said, though Bainbridge officials also admit they are unsure how expensive it will be to clean up the land, or how successful the attempt will be to get the property owner to pay for the effort, or how the clean-up may impact the schedule for building the new facility. In more recent days, however, supporters of Prop. 1 have said the ballot measure is not specifically tied to the city’s Madison Avenue location.

bioengineering professor with whom several BME students collaborated this summer. Moore’s also hooked up with Amy Burton, a life science recruiter and fellow rower, to make connections with top specialists. These industry partnerships are key, Moore said, as she seeks to turn the club into a full-fledged class with options for daytime internships at research centers like Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center or the Ben Towne Center for Childhood Cancer Research. Considering she just received approval to offer a biotech-related career and technical education credit, it would seem Moore is well on her way on the way to meeting her goal. This year, she will lay a foundation for the course by encouraging her students to design and engineer a project centered around an unmet clinical need. They’ll work in teams — Moore loves the diversity of her students, who enjoy separate interests in math, biology and chemistry; she stresses that, “No one person can do it all” -— to design a prototype and then test their design using fluid dynamics and open source software.
been told, that there is just a bit too much of the bubbly spirit still flowing at city hall, around this issue,” said Chris Van Dyk, a Bainbridge voter and one of Prop. 1’s most vocal opponents. “As a voter, let’s just say that all that bubbly keeps me wanting to remain the designated driver who says ‘no,’ so they’ll come back, a little less woozy, with a clearer head and a better plan, next election. “No doubt a facility is needed, but as the good police themselves say from time to time, with this much bubbly spirit under the belt, this is not a good time for the city of Bainbridge Island to be driving this particular car down the road,” Van Dyk said. Prop. 1 needs a 60 percent “yes” vote to pass. If approved, it would equate to an approximately $100 annual increase in property taxes on a home with the median home value of approximately $430,000.
They’ll present their work at an open forum next Spring. Of course, none of this interactive learning would be possible without Bainbridge Schools Foundation and its Classroom Enrichment Grants. They’re the club’s sole source of funding, outside of the tech levy, which provided some of the lab equipment. Last year, the nonprofit awarded $66,000 to 27 projects in seven schools, $4,000 of which went to Moore for supplies, including the aforementioned microscopes. In 2013, Moore received $6,000 from the foundation — the club’s initial seed money. And this year, she is hoping to reap just over $8,000 for new curriculum. Seem like a lot? Fetal pigs alone rack up the bill, costing $22 a piece. And remember, Moore has 90 students, so she’s asking for funding for 60. Project Lead the Way biotech training, which would enable Moore to convert the club into a CTE-credit class, costs another $3,500. And there’s still dissecting kits, heart valve stints and mesh netting to be bought.

Blakely teacher restricts Lego-play to her girl students in the pursuit of gender equity Experiment designed to get girls building
sticking to her guns: It’s all part of a plan to get girls building during “free choice,” the 40 minutes of unstructured play time embedded at the end of every school day.
BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
In Karen Keller’s kindergarten classroom, boys can’t play with Legos. They can have their pick of Tinkertoys and marble tracks, but the colorful bricks are “girls only.” “I always tell the boys, ‘You’re going to have a turn’ — and I’m like, ‘Yeah, when hell freezes over’ in my head,” she said. “I tell them, ‘You’ll have a turn’ because I don’t want them to feel bad.” Although her approach might anger some parents, Keller is
Injustice or ingeniousness? For years, Keller, who has taught at Captain Johnston Blakely Elementary since 2008, watched with discouragement as self-segregation defined her classroom — her boy students flocked to the building blocks while her girl students played with dolls and crayons and staples, toys that offered them little challenge or opportunity to fail and develop perseverance. She did her research and
concluded that something had to give; her girl students were indeed missing out.
Play linked to spatial skills Lego play, Keller found, has been widely attributed to accelerating development and helping children fine-tune spatial and math skills, two of the largest areas of cognitive disparity between men and women. Further, female STEM role models are few and far between, and part of the reason for their underrepresentation, Keller believes, are the gender stereotypes women are socialized into from an early age.

The black box/theater debate was expected to come to a theoretical end this week. The Bainbridge Island School Board was planning to pick one of three options to replace the aging Captain Johnston Blakely Elementary School and Bainbridge High School’s 100 Building at its meeting Oct. 29. A fourth option, to replace Blakely and “postpone, patch and repair” the 100 Building, has been dropped. District officials announced Monday that the board decided to focus on replacing buildings “because the cost of addressing building deficiencies through modernization was practically the same as replacement.” The three remaining options for consideration include:
• A $68.5 million bond measure to replace Blakely and the BHS 100 Building, which includes a 150-175seat black box performance space; • A $77.5 million bond measure to replace Blakely and the BHS 100 Building, which includes a 300- to 450-seat performance space; and • A $80.2 million bond measure to replace Blakely and the BHS 100 Building, which includes a 600-seat performance space. All of the options will also include repair work at Ordway Elementary and the Commodore Options School, as well as asset preservation work at Sakai Intermediate School, Woodward Middle School and the BHS 300/400/500 buildings. Following the Oct. 29 meeting, final approval of the preferred bond proposal is planned for Nov. 12.

Commissioner hopefuls eager to guide new park improvements Campaign talk turns to trails, park projects BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge voters have a choice this November between the island’s premier promoter of public trails, or a longtime incumbent who’s quite familiar with the sometimes rocky path facing a Bainbridge parks commissioner. John Grinter, the challenger, is taking his second shot at a board position for the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District. Grinter, 53, ran for a seat on the park board in 2001 but lost out in a five-way race. Ken DeWitt, 61, is seeking another term for the park district he’s served for 15 years. Two seats are up for election Nov. 3, but the Position 2 seat is the only contested race; Commissioner Jay Kinney is running unopposed for the Position 4 slot. The job carries a six-year term, but DeWitt said he’s eager to help guide the park district as it takes on its next major project: the creation of a central park for Bainbridge on the former Sakai family farm. “It’s been a lot of fun, but there’s a lot of challenges,

too,” said DeWitt, a mortgage banker and commercial property owner and manager. The park district hit a plateau of sorts during his first few years on the board, he recalled, but things have only improved since Terry Lande was brought on as the district’s executive director a dozen years ago. “He’s provided a lot of energy for the district,” DeWitt said. “We have more than double the number of programs that we had in 2003. We have decorating and hair styling — but she also faults teachers for not taking action. “I just feel like we are still so far behind in promoting gender equity,” Keller explained. Which is what led Keller to her classroom experiment. If girls were given the

developed great public-private partnerships,” he added. “I really enjoy being part of an organization that is doing good things and making a meaningful difference.” DeWitt said his priorities center on developing and expanding programs, parks and facilities. Those who know him, he said, know that he stands behind his word and brings common-sense decisions to the choices faced by the park board. Like his opponent, DeWitt is also big on trails. DeWitt moved to the opportunity, would they develop different play preferences? She thought so, and she could cite a study or two to back the claim up.
Guiding “free choice” At first, Keller tried enticing her girl students with pink and purple Legos. “But it wasn’t enough,”
island in 1979, but he said his interest in parks started as a teenager when he led the restoration of the backcountry trail, called the “Boy Scout Trail,” in Joshua Tree National Monument. On Bainbridge, he’s long served on the park district’s Trails Advisory Committee and helped to plan, lay out and build many of the trails on the island. “I believe I have a very well-rounded view of the park district,” DeWitt said. Grinter came to Bainbridge from Whatcom County, via Seattle, in 2000. He’s a stay-at-home dad and small-business owner who currently serves as a volunteer on the city of Bainbridge Island’s Non-Motorized Transportation Advisory Committee. A strident supporter of improved and connected pathways across Bainbridge, Grinter’s clashed in the past with park officials over trail projects. “I’m passionate about our parks, our open spaces and creating a greenway network of trails and quiet roadways,” Grinter said. “I think the need for that network is more critical now than ever, and more feasible, because, in the last 15 years, we’ve acquired even more public land that links these assets together,” he said. “That’s the number one reason I’m running.” During his campaign, she said. The girls weren’t interested and the boys just expanded their palettes. So this past fall, when Bainbridge Schools Foundation announced its Classroom Enrichment Grants, Keller saw her chance to affect change. She asked for funding to purchase Lego Education Community Starter Kits for three Blakely classrooms, writing that “while it’s not necessary to board up the playhouse and adopt the babies out, concrete steps can be taken to ameliorate the gender gap in the kindergarten and present engaging ways to develop girls’ spatial skills.” What she didn’t tell BSF, however, was that the boys wouldn’t get to play with the new 1,907-piece sets. “I had to do the ‘girls only Lego club’ to boost it more,” she explained. “Boys get ongoing practice and girls are shut out of those activities, which just kills me. Until girls get it into their
Grinter has faulted the park district for being “unwilling to bend” with other public agencies on issues of mutual concern — trails topping the list — and said he was anxious to bring a collaborative approach to dealings with the city and school district. He’s also called for projects once considered by the park district but abandoned — such as a disc golf course or a rebuilt spray pool — to be built on parkland. Battle Point Park was once home to a very popular, community-built spray pool, Grinter recalled, and could be again. The original spray pool was shut down over concerns raised by county health officials; the facility lacked a treatment facility for water polluted by hundreds of kids and sweaty runners on hot summer days, and people also washed their dogs at the spray pool. The lack of a lifeguard, and dangerous and slippery tiles at the pool, also led to its demise. Grinter recalled being at Battle Point when a bus filled with kids from Indianola rolled up, and children with towels on their backs began running toward the spray park. Then they realized it had been shut down. “And they were totally crestfallen,” he said. Grinter said only political will is lacking for a spray
pool. “It’s just a matter of putting the resources toward it,” he said. “There are thousands of spray parks in this country. Whatever the regulatory needs are, they can be met.” There are other projects, too, that could bring needed amenities to Bainbridge parks. Grinter has suggested creating a pump track for bicyclists, a “senior citizen playground” in Winslow, and off-leash trails for dogs. New facilities don’t have to be budget-busters, he said. “In most cases, these amenities are designed, developed, built and maintained by user groups — so that the cost to the community is small and borne by those who use the facilities,” he said. DeWitt, for his part, supports some of the ideas raised by Grinter. A demonstration pump track was put up at Battle Point Park for the park district’s 50th anniversary celebration earlier this year, he recalled, and seemed like a good fit. One area where the pair part company, however, is a community center for the Sakai farm, which was purchased by the park district this year after voters OK’d a bond sale to buy the 22.97acre property on Madison Avenue.

It’s a fair practice In Keller’s mind, it’s a fair practice “because fair is getting what you need to succeed or to get better.” Fair doesn’t have to be the same,
and she says her kindergarteners get that. At least for now. While Keller sees more girls in the building area than before, it’s still not the norm, she said. So the boys will just have to wait their turn.

Bainbridge voters face earth-friendly choice in District 1 race Candidates tout their credentials on the environment
and has a broad range of connections and friends and community to represent on the council. “I think we need another woman on the council; I think we need another mom on the council,” she added. “And being a lawyer, I don’t see how it could hurt. I understand how regulations work; I work with agencies on a regular basis; I repre-
sent people’s interests.” Mulhern noted much of her public service has been for the environment, from working for the Sierra
Club Legal Defense Fund or the late Judge William Lee Dwyer, “one of the most environmental judges in the state of Washington.” A major issue, no doubt due to the Visconsi shopping center and the extended discussions surrounding the rewrite of the island’s growth plan, has been development. Worries about growth have been something Mulhern’s heard during her door-to-door campaign, mostly done in past weeks with a broken toe on her left foot. “Everyone is concerned about the pace of growth,” she said. With the recession over, Mulhern said, some have been surprised that projects put on hold earlier are now back in the works. “That’s why you can’t run for council now without being ready to tackle the planning code, and address the environmental protections, resources and infrastructure. Sewer, water have to be top of the list. Traffic.” It’s familiar turf, to be sure. Mulhern noted her work alongside her opponent during the community fight against the Visconsi development. Instead of trying to get the proposal rejected by the city’s hearing examiner, Mulhern recalled how she, instead, took on the more practical approach of getting conditions added to the approval of the project that would lessen impacts on nearby neighborhoods and the rest of the island.
Commodore School. DeWitt, however, said Bainbridge is in desperate need of a community center. The lower gym at Commodore will be torn down in a few years, he noted. “I would love to see a
community center that’s got some gym space in it, some meeting space in it, and maybe an indoor track,” DeWitt said. The jury is still out on what will happen on the Sakai property. And DeWitt said that’s
one of the main reasons he’s running for another term: to see the community come together to set a vision for the new park. “I want to get the planning process done for the Sakai property. I want to make sure that is truly a communi-

The race for the Bainbridge Island City Council’s District 1 at-large position features two candidates pushing their serious environmental bona fides. Ron Peltier, 64, is a 50-year islander and resident carpenter who’s familiar to many as the outspoken leader of Islanders for Responsible Development, the grassroots group that fought the Visconsi shopping center proposal at Highway 305 and High School Road. Pegeen Mulhern, 60, is a maritime business attorney and more recent arrival (1991) from the East Coast who comes with a thick resume of public service; here in Washington, as a volunteer in the community in schools, church and Girl Scouts — and also as co-founder of Islanders for Responsible Development. Mulhern’s occupation — she’d be the sixth lawyer to join the seven-member council if elected in November — is hard to overlook. And it’s something that’s been brought up to her during her public events: “Do we need another lawyer?” Mulhern recalled someone asking. “I think we need another person on the island who’s been involved in a lot of different community activities

Peltier makes no bones about his role in fighting the project. What’s followed, since the start of his campaign, have been his comments blasting a “pro-development culture” at city hall. He’s questioned whether city staff who approve permits are qualified to make environmental determinations and has raised doubts about their commitment to stewardship of the island’s unique character. He’s also accused staff of being a “rubber stamp” for development. That charge came in response to the Visconsi development, which Peltier said should have required a more intensive environmental analysis before it was green-lighted by city officials. An environmental impact statement was not completed for the new shopping center, he recalled. “Which I think is wrong for the largest commercial development on the island in 25 years. It should have had a full environmental impact statement.” Peltier’s opposition to the new shopping center remains strong. It’s bringing unwanted and redundant new businesses to the island, he said, ones that will compete with downtown merchants. Some critics have called for a boycott of business at the shopping center, and Peltier said he’s on board. “That’s something that citizens have a right to do.
I’m not one of the organizers of the boycott, but I support it,” he said. The most distance between the two candidates that’s arisen during the campaign has been over Proposition 1, the city’s proposal for a $15 million, 20-year bond sale that would pay for a new combined police station/municipal court on land just north of city hall. The Nov. 3 ballot request needs a 60-percent “yes” vote to pass. Peltier has come out firmly against the proposal — the only council candidate in a field of five on the ballot to do so. Peltier said the motivation for getting a new police station on Madison Avenue seems to be more about creating a new city campus than public safety. “The number one priority should be: [determining] where’s the best location for the police. “I don’t think that’s the driving motive behind the $15 million bond,” Peltier said. Mulhern, by contrast, isn’t taking sides. “I’m glad that it’s being put to the voters. I’m not really putting a position out there because I think both sides have some good arguments,” she said. The District 1 at-large position carries a four-year term. Councilman Steve Bonkowski, the current councilman in the District 1 seat, decided to not seek a second term.
ty process,” DeWitt said. Commissioners have agreed to set aside any personal preferences for possible amenities on the
property, he explained, and let the public decide. “Then, we need to figure out how we’re going to pay for it,” he said.

Dylan Anthony Tripp As the forest enters its autumnal journey, gold, orange and crimson leaves d a n c e and drift back to the earth, transforming the forest floor into a carpet of color and a bed of rich nutrients to sustain the living forest through the trials of winter. So too our dear son, brother,
friend, co-worker and lover of nature, Dylan A. Tripp, leaves us in an abrupt moment, returning back to the earth he so dearly loved. Dylan enjoyed being outdoors, hiking, fishing, exploring and riding his motorcycle. He lived life passionately and compassionately. He brought love and joy to the many people he came into contact with. While he is physically no longer with us, he remains forever in our hearts. Dylan was born May 21, 1990 on Bainbridge Island. He graduated from Bainbridge
Friday, October 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
High School in 2008. He went on to complete his bachelor of science degree in forestry at the University of Northern Arizona in 2012, and began working as a forester for Washington Department of Natural Resources following his graduation from NAU. Though a young man, he was wise beyond his years. He saw and understood the profound interconnectedness of all things. He gave us an example of how to care about life and each other and pursue what is important, not just what is popular.
Dylan passed away Oct. 4. 2015. He is survived by his mother, Candace L. Tripp; father, Timothy L. Tripp; brother, Tobin E. Tripp; partner, Ashley Matelski; grandmother, Catherine Tripp, Aunt Molly and Uncle Steve Greist and many more aunts, uncles and cousins. A celebration of Dylan’s life will be held at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 15 at IslandWood. In lieu of flowers, make a donation to the Bainbridge Island Land Trust in memory of Dylan (http://bit.ly/dylantripp or bi-landtrust.org/).

A
dark, rainy night and little masked marauders will present a challenge to drivers Saturday night. If you’ve forgotten, Halloween is Oct. 31. Keep in mind that rain will likely dampen roads this weekend and obscure your nighttime vision. Those two factors make the night extra dangerous for drivers: Revved up children as they go about their trick-or-treating may not pay attention to moving vehicles. Combine that with dark Halloween costumes and face masks that obscure their vision, and you have an accident waiting to happen. Drivers, here are a few reminders. ■ The first is obvious: slow down and drive with caution, especially in lowlit neighborhoods between the hours of 4 p.m. and midnight. ■ Better yet, if you can, avoid driving through neighborhoods. Sidewalks and streets will be filled with candy-craving kids. For parents of trick-ortreaters, here are a few reminders: ■ Trick-or-treat as a group. Accompany your younger children. ■ Choose costumes that don’t obstruct vision. Add reflective material or tape to your kids’ costumes so they’ll be more visible to drivers. ■ Give a last-minute briefing to your trick-ortreaters. Review safety measures. And if you’re driving them to different

Ogle Road, Bremerton. Haunted Harbor is a family friendly event for younger children (think “Casper the Friendly Ghost” instead of “Walking Dead”). Haunted Harbor is also a benefit for Bremerton Foodline. The suggested admission is a donation of one or more of the following items per person: Hot or cold cereals; canned vegetables; meals in a can (ravioli, stews or pasta rings); canned fruit or fruit cups; granola bars. Peanut butter or jelly (12 oz. size or larger); canned meats; Jell-O or pudding packs; cookie and cake mixes. Sundries, including toothpaste, toothbrushes, bar soap, shampoo, disposable razors; disposable diapers and wipes (adults and babies). Pet food, and household cleaners and paper towels. “We are excited to see the community come together for wholesome activities for families and thrilled to be the beneficiary,” said Foodline Executive Director Patti Peterson. “It sounds like the beginning of a wonderful tradition connecting See HALLOWEEN, Page 3

Halloween
Continued from page 2 the boating world with others in the community in a very positive way.” Haunted Harbor will start with a kids’ costume contest in the Brownsville Yacht Clubhouse at 6 p.m. Costume entrants will be divided into two groups: children 8 and younger and ages 9-12. From 7-9 p.m., following a safety briefing, children and their grown-ups will go to the breakwater to trick or treat decorated boats crewed by ghosts, fairy tale characters, and pirates. Volunteers will be on hand to help and answer questions. The concrete breakwater is very stable and a limited number of children’s lifejackets will be available. Art SLAM Studio will offer free pumpkin painting in the pavilion and children will also be able to “trunk and treat” five antique hearses provided by the Anubis Hearse Club.
continues through Nov. 1. Bloedel horticulturists and volunteers planted seeds in late spring and after a summer in the hot sun, the once tiny seeds now look like something from the imagination of Dr. Seuss. “Fall color is a real treat at Bloedel. Add in a fun and interactive activity for the kids, and a visit to Bloedel should be on everyone’s to -do list this season,” said Ed Moydell, executive director. With more than 300 fruits (yes! they’re fruits)
placed in the gardens, children of all ages will enjoy perusing the pumpkins and scouring the squash. All will be rewarded with a picturesque walk, and the children will receive a prize after completing the hunt. Bloedel Reserve is open 10 a.m to 4 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday.
Downtown Poulsbo Halloween Downtown Poulsbo’s Front Street is closed for Trick-or-Treating from 3:30-5 p.m. Oct. 31. The event is free. Wear costumes and trick or treat at Front Street businesses.

Gillian is a two year old shorthaired tabby and white female who was returned to us for being too feisty for the young children in the household. Gillian is a very playful girl who likes to follow you around and keep an eye on what you’re doing. She is friendly and likes to be petted just a bit. She doesn’t like to be carried around but she will sit next to you while you watch tv or work on the computer.

NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
At the recent Great Northwest Invitational Wine Competition at the Columbia Gorge Hotel in Hood River, Oregon, 20 top wine professionals from the Northwest tried more than 560 nominated wines from Washington, Oregon, British Columbia and Idaho. Here are a few of the top white and sparkling wines. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. ■Treveri Cellars NV Blanc de Blancs Brut Columbia Valley, $15: Juergen Grieb and his son, Christian, consistently produce bright, lively sparklers in Wapato. And among their finest is this brut, which sports green apple flavors and a hint of brioche. There’s a minuscule amount of residual sugar, but the bright acids and bubbles make it almost disappear. (12 percent alcohol) ■Chateau Ste. Michelle 2014 Dry Riesling, Columbia
Valley, $9: Lime and orange citrus aromas are mirrored in its flavors, and carry into a long finish that displays sublime minerality. The result is a wine that’s perfect for sipping or pairing with Asian food. (12.5 percent alcohol) ■Jones of Washington 2014 Estate Pinot Gris, Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley, $13: Winemaker Victor Palencia has done it again with Pinot Gris, thanks to aromas of lime, minerality and faint pear. On the palate, lime, pear and a touch of residual sugar combine into a tasty drink that closes with crisp acidity. (13.4 percent alcohol) ■Amavi Cellars 2014 SÊmillon, Walla Walla Valley, $24: SÊmillon, long considered one of the premier white wine grapes, has become a hard sell in the 21st century. Jean-François Pellet’s lovely 2014 version from the Walla Walla Valley shows why that’s a shame. Citrusy aromas, led by bright lime, are followed by lemon and lime on the palate. (13.9 percent alcohol) See WINES, Page 9

Continued from page 8 ■ Huston Vineyards 2014 Private Reserve Chardonnay, Snake River Valley, $24: Aging on French and American oak produced soft aromas and flavors of butterscotch and vanilla, late fall apples and just a hint of apple peel before its lingering finish. Devotees of the use of oak in Chardonnay will love it. (14.1 percent alcohol) ■ Saviah Cellars 2013 Stillwater Creek Vineyard Chardonnay, Columbia Valley, $25: Owner/winemaker Richard Funk reached in Stillwater Creek Vineyard, near Royal City, for this Chardonnay. It opens with apple aromas, tinged by a tiny note of spice, then yields crisp apple, pineapple and citrus flavors. (13.8 percent alcohol) ■ DeLille Cellars 2014 Chaleur Estate Blanc, Columbia Valley, $38: This blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon is a creamy drink of lemon and lime. It’s a well-integrated, polished wine perfect for fish or chicken with the character and acidity to stand up against almost any suitable sauce. (13.2 percent alcohol) ■ Poet’s Leap 2014 Riesling, Columbia Valley, $20: Part of Long Shadows Vintners in Walla Walla, this graceful Riesling shows off aromas and flavors of lime and orange accented by 1.25 percent residual sugar. That makes it a perfect match for fish or fowl. (12.9 percent alcohol)

There’s a whiff of petrol in its citrusy nose, which leads to flavors of lime and a hint of orange. It closes with juicy acidity that makes it a great accompaniment for Asian foods. (12 percent alcohol)

■ Coyote Canyon Winery 2013 Albariño, Horse Heaven Hills, $22: Justin Michaud heads the winemaking at this Prosser winery and this Albariño displays his deft touch in its tropical and citrusy aromas. On the palate, lemon-lime flavors dominate with a subtle underlayer of mango. (14.1 percent alcohol) — Learn more at www. greatnorthwestwine.com.

This season, make some gluten-free Pan de Muerto GLUTEN-FREE FOODIES By LISA GARZA

You can make your own sugar skulls or find some premade sugar skulls at your favorite party stores in town. Lisa Garza / Gluten-Free Foodies
few years ago, I wrote a post about Dia de los Muertos. I asked that my readers send me a story about who they wanted to honor and remember on this very special Latin holiday. Over the years, I have received so many emails and stories that it warms my heart! I am thrilled to hear that so many children and adults are celebrating this holiday with their Spanish class. I have received emails from parents and teachers telling me about their friends and family. Honor your family with gluten-free Pan de Muerto, using smaller pans for “un poquito pan

Read through the recipe first. Assemble the ingredients and tools so that you don’t forget anything and to make it easier. This may seem hard but it really isn’t. Just think of the people that you are honoring while making this bread and it will be a memorial.

“I am thrilled to hear that so many children and adults are celebrating this holiday ...”
TIP: If the dough is too sticky, dip the silicone spoon into warm water and it will help smooth it out.
— Lisa Garza
Cover with cling wrap and put into a proofing oven or a warm place that is at least 75 room temp degrees for 1 hour.
Glaze This makes the shiny, white gloss on the bread to add more flavor and help the sugar stick. 2-3 Tbs powder sugar water **Juice from 1 medium orange Large pearl sugar or colored sugar for decorating — any color
Tools and Pans Large scoop and 1 large flat and 1 small scraper silicone spoons. Thermometer to check temp of milk to activate yeast. If you want to make one large bread, use a le Creuset braiser pan or an oven-proof 12-inch fry pan with the sides at least 2 inches high. You could also use 2- to 9-inch cake pans. For small individual size breads, use a cupcake pan. Cling wrap. Egg Wash 1 egg room temp with 1 Tbs water. Beat well and brush on top of the bread when it is done proofing or rising. Bake Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Take the bread out of the oven and let cool in the pan on a rack for 15 minutes. While the bread is cooling make the glaze.
Brush on the glaze and add the decorating sugar. Traditional designs are of
skull and cross bones. If you have a cookie cutter use to place on top then sprinkle sugar to create the shape. Just be creative! Look for some fun and festive sugar skull decorations filled with candy or to place around your tables. You can make your own sugar skulls or find some pre-made sugar skulls at your favorite party stores in town. — Lisa Garza’s Gluten-Free Foodies is one of the more popular blogs on Sound Publishing’s websites: BainbridgeReview.com, BremertonPatriot.com, CentralKitsapReporter. com, NorthKitsapHerald. com, and the PortOrchardIndependent. com.

CONSUMER ALERT
Scammers are targeting newspapers Credit card scam artists have conceived a new scheme involving newspapers. Law Enforcement advises the usual precaution: Use caution when speaking to anyone about sensitive financial information over the phone. The scammers pose as advertising representatives from the newspaper, and call customers who have placed ads or classified notices, to report a problem with the customer’s credit card. The callers say they need to confirm the card number and security code on the back of the card. These callers are not from this newspaper. This newspaper will attempt to collect payment on returned checks and invalid credit card payments; but advertisers would receive calls from our accounting department seeking an alternate payment method. To be sure you are speaking with an authorized representative of our newspaper, use these following tips: • Ask the caller to identify himself/herself and the office he/she is calling from, including the address. If you do not recognize the caller, hang up and call your local newspaper office directly. • Before providing payment information to a caller, ask for information that would be unknown to scammers. This could include your billing address or previous payment information. A newspaper representative can verify your original payment method, check numbers, banking institution and/or the last four digits and expiration of your credit card. • If the caller claims your check was returned or credit card was declined, verify this information by calling your bank or credit card company or by checking your bank statement. If you receive a scam call like this, write down all information you can about the call, such as: the caller’s name, phone number, time of day and duration of call. If you feel you have given your information to one of these scammers – Immediately contact your bank and/or credit card company to place a hold on the transaction in question or on your account and begin a fraud investigation. Callers who may have already given financial information to callers should also call their bank or credit card company to place an immediate hold on their accounts and begin a fraud investigation.
If you are a victim of this scam please contact this office 360-394-8704, your local police department, or the consumer fraud division of the Washington Attorney General’s office.

Hylen reads Nov. 7 at Poulsbohemian Coffeehouse The following poems are by Sue Hylen, a Bainbridge Island poet who will be one of three featured readers Nov. 7 at the Poulsbohemian Coffeehouse, 19003 Front St. NE, Poulsbo. Readings are free and open to the public.

MIDWINTER IN NEW HAMPSHIRE, 1967 Night full on her neck she laces the belt of Orion
— Poet Sue Hylen is arts and cultural program manager for the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District.
Bragging rights at stake in Jewel Box Theatre Short Play Festival POULSBO — The Jewel Box Theatre is sponsoring its first Short Play Festival, “Small Treasures,” May 7-8, 2016. The theater is not going to charge a fee, but that means no cash prize — just bragging rights and a fully staged production
by one of the Jewel Box’s directors. Rules: Send your unproduced short play (staged readings or competition pieces are fine) as an attachment in .pdf or Word .doc/.docx format to musikforhire@comcast. net. Put “Subject: Small
Treasure” in the subject line. Files with detected viruses will be deleted unread. Use standard play-writing format. You can enter up to two plays that are 10 minutes long. Include name and contact information on title page.
The play must have no more than six characters. Family and edgy plays are welcomed, but be sure the use of profanity or questionable themes is not gratuitous and is necessary to the story. Staging must be simple and special effects within reason.
The theater enjoys plays that are thought-provoking, heart-rending, or cause a belly laugh. Deadline for entries is Dec. 1. In January, the theater will post winners on the Jewel Box website, www. jewelboxpoulsbo.org, and will solicit for directors and actors.

MOVING IS THE NAME OF HER GAME BY LESLIE KELLY
Everything Marsha Novak does centers on moving well – “the place where learning to move meets moving to learn,” she likes to say. Novak, of Bainbridge Island, is the owner of Moving Well Physical Therapy and Movement Education. She’s been in private practice since 1998, and prior to that worked at the University of Washington Sports Medicine Clinic. She has a degree in physical therapy from the University of Washington. But her work has never been about medicine or healthcare. It’s always been about movement. “When someone comes to see me and they have knee pain, I’m not looking to just ease the knee pain,” she said. “I’m looking to find what’s at the root of the problem. Is it how they stand? It is how they move? My work is about helping client discover new, more efficient patterns of posture and movement.” Having been in the movement business for more than 30 years, Novak had a practice in Fremont and one on Bainbridge Island, until 2010, when she began working solely on Bainbridge. Typically, she’s working with from 15 to 30 clients at one time, ranging from adults with pain and neurologic conditions to children who have special needs. She is best known for her work as a Feldenkrais practitioner. Thought working primarily as a Feldenkrais practitioner, her work is based in her physical therapist roots and incorporates aspects of other disciplines. In the Feldenkrais method, the practitioner directs attention to habitual movement patterns which are inefficient or strained, and teaches new patterns using gentle, slow movements. Slow repetition is thought to be needed to impart a new habit and allow it to begin to feel normal. The method was developed by Moshe Feldenkrais and aims to reduce pain and improvement physical function. Sometimes clients follow verbally directed movements and repeat them. Other times the practitioner uses hands-on to guide the movement. Recently, Novak has been working to extend the work she does to help children
with learning disabilities and limitations. She’s always been interested and involved in education including teaching Kinesiology at Cornish College. So this is a natural progression, she said. What she has discovered is that “movement difficulties and learning dysfunctions are often bedfellow.” Many of these children have not fully integrated their neonatal, sometimes called primitive, reflexes and can significantly benefit from specialized work to do that. “These reflexes develop either in utero or during the first few months of life,” she wrote in a recent blog. “Absence of these reflexes in newborns suggests a serious neuromotor impairment or disease.” When these reflexes do not fully integrate, she said, this can trigger learning or attention challenges. Because of this, she sees children with these issues and once their physical movement becomes integrated, their learning abilities usually improve. The first step is for her to assess the child. Until the end of the year, she will offer a $25 assessment for children considered “neurotypical” but who struggle in school. At this session, she will discuss options with parents. Assessments include such things as looking at a child’s overall movement, balance, proprioception and the integration of primary reflexes. Depending on what she sees, she will recommend some combination of private in-office work and exercises to practice at home. In some cases, she may refer a client on to another specialist, like she did with a recent child who had visual issues. And she will always recommend physical activity. “Moving builds brain connections,” she said. “More complex movements activities are better. Anything like climbing walls, gymnastics, yoga or dance classes are valuable for kids and adults, too.” Though the $25 assessment for children is a time-limited offer, she has an on-going practice of offering adults who are new to her a 20 to 30 minute taste of her hands-on Feldenkrais work for $25.

Katy Bigelow
SHE DOES HER WORK SKY HIGH
BY LESLIE KELLY
Recently, Katy Bigelow went home to visit her mother in California. Her mother brought out a box of old slides from when Katy was a kid. “There is was,” she said. “A bunch of pictures of me climbing trees.” It caught her off guard because she didn’t remember liking to climb trees as a kid. “I loved the outdoors and I loved hiking in the forest,” she said. “My dad was an outdoors guy and he’d take us out wood cutting.” But her mother told her “You were always up in trees.” So it’s only natural that Bigelow would become a professional arborist. She started her own company in 2003, after working at world-class arboretums in Santa Cruz, Seattle, and Melbourne, Australia. She also worked for the City of Seattle and the University of Washington while completing a degree in horticulture. “I started out as a gardener,” she said. “But I became very interested in trees.” She has a degree in arboriculture, and is a Certified Arborist through the International Society of Arboriculture. She also became certified as a Tree Risk Assessor in 2007. Most recently she received the distinction of becoming the second woman in Washington State to become a Registered Consulting Arborist with the American Society of Consulting
Arborists. As a female arborist, Bigelow’s had the experience of going to a job, only to have the homeowner ask “Whose going up the tree?” “When I say ‘me,’ they sometimes get a strange look on their face,” she said. Her work was originally on small trees, but as she progressed, she became interested in large trees. Most of her work now is consulting with homeowners who want to know more about their trees. “Especially with people new to this area who don’t know much about larger trees,” she said. “They want to know ‘Is that tree gonna fall on my house?’” She also consults with architects, business owners and developers who want ideas on how to save trees on property that they are developing. “People ask if my work get boring,” she said. “But it never does because it’s always a different situation in a different backyard.” She can access tree risk, help with planting decisions, analyze tree health, and other gardening and tree needs. And then there’s the cat rescues. If you go to her Facebook page (Katy Bigelow, Arborist, LLC), you’ll see a video of her rescuing Mogli, a cat in Kingston who’d been up a tree for six days.

It was part chance and part happenstance that Mindy Anderson ever got into caring for pets. As a veterinarian assistant working the front desk at a vet clinic, she knew she loved pets – mostly cats and dogs. But it wasn’t until she ran into another pet sitter that she ever thought about having that be her career. And now it’s 13 years later and she’s busy from morning to night seven days a week, walking dogs and doing vacation care for cats and dogs. “I was at one of those pet walks that Kitsap Humane Shelter was sponsoring,” Anderson said. “I ran into a woman there who was a pet sitter in central Kitsap and she became a friend of mine. She convinced me that I should give it a try.” And so she did. She opened Aunty Min’s Specialized Pet Care Inc., in 2002. Named for what her friends with “human kids” call her, she cares for pets on Bainbridge Island. “They call me Auntie Min,” she said. “So I figured that was a great name for the business.” Anderson first started very part time while she worked other jobs, including working for a record company and other administrative jobs. But she knew that wasn’t for her. “I really didn’t want to be a desk person,”
she said. “I knew I was all about animals.” She’d grown up with siamese cats and doberman dogs at home, and currently has two dachshunds, Rocky, 13 and Bella, 8. Her beloved Sammy, another dachshund, passed away at age 15 just a few months ago. Having built her business mostly by word of mouth, and with her connections at local veterinarian offices, she now has more than 100 clients. Some of them want their dogs walked once a day. Others need their dogs let out to “do their business” a couple times a day. Still others want Anderson to care for their pets while they are away on vacation. Her basic fees are $22 for 30 minutes. A “woof walk,” where dogs are walked in groups, runs $30. And potty breaks are $17. “I like to group the dogs for walks, with the little ones together,” she said. “It helps with the socialization.” If you ask her if she’s ever been bit, this is her answer. “Of course,” she said. “I kinda think it’s part of the job.” But she said it’s usually minor and often times her fault because she’s come between an animal and their food. Another wearing part of her job is getting in and out of her car many, many times a day. See ANDERSON, Page A7
OCTOBER 30, 2015
NOVAK, Continued from page A3 Generally, she will work with a client for six visits, to begin to develop new movement patterns. At that point she and her clients decide if they can benefit from continuing the work. Sometimes they will continue working with her on a schedule of once a month for several months. She does each a few group sessions and most of her clients are private pay. The favorite part of her job is “seeing someone’s life improve.” “I like the biomechanics,” she said. “It’s like solving a puzzle. But it’s much more than that. It’s helping people with the problems that are getting in the way of them living the life they want to and improving the quality of their lives.”
BIGELOW, Continued from page A5 “I love that part of my work,” she said. “Most tree arborists don’t like cats, let along going up a tree to get one. The fire department won’t do it anymore. But I’m happy to do it.” Thus far this year, she’s rescued 30 cats in the Kitsap and King counties area. She puts one thing first. “I learned from another cat rescuer that climber safety comes first,” she said. “The owner is frustrated and emotional and the cat is emotional and I have to keep my wits about me.” Once at the level of the cat (she been from 20 feet to more than 100 feet up a tree), she tries to make friends with it. But she knows what to do when she gains control of the
ANDERSON, Continued from page A6 “There’s a lot of ins and outs of the car to this work,” she joked. The best part of her job? She never gets lonely. “I get to meet so many animals,” she said. “And they all become like family.” The worst part? When an animal passes. “The absolute worst part of my job is losing a furry friend,” she said. “Some of these pets I have known for years. Some I’ve seen every day for years and it’s very hard.” Animals are such a part of her life that

She also likes mentoring other students who are studying movement related disciplines. Currently, she is mentoring a student learning Feldenkrais, which involves 800 hours of training. In her free time, she likes to knit and enjoying time with her husband, Robert, who recently retired after 34 years as the librarian at Seattle University. They’ve lived on Bainbridge Island since 2007. “Moving my home and work to Bainbridge Island has been wonderful,” she said. “I like the quieter, slower pace of life. There’s a calmness about the island. The people are nice and it’s a really pleasant community.” To reach Novak, email her at moving@ drizzle.com, or call 206-842-4608.

She puts it in the bag. “The cat may look sweet,” she said. “But after all its been through, the claws may come out.” She comes back down to the ground and hands the cat to his or her owner, bag and all. As for payment for her rescues, it’s by donation. “I’ve gotten everything from a dozen farmfresh eggs to a couple hundred dollars,” Bigelow said. “It all evens out in the end.” To find out more, go to www.katybigelow. com, or call 206-351-1375.

ONE CALL FOR ALL WWW.ONECALLFORALL.ORG
Red Envelopes have arrived
There were simple pledge cards in the early years. By Brian Kelly
Volunteers went door to door to support the Bainbridge Foundation and its “One Call for All.” They asked their fellow islanders to take a pledge card, check a box for a weekly, monthly or quarterly donation, and put a mark next to the charity of their choice. There weren’t many charities to support in the first years of the once-a-year collection effort, Bainbridge’s grassroots drive for funds for local and national health and welfare organizations. Boxes on the pledge cards for donors to check simply offered choices such as “cancer,” “the blind,” “polio” and “muscular dystrophy.” There were a few Bainbridge choices, however, such as Bainbridge Ambulance and the Bainbridge Library maintenance
fund, and familiar organizations including the Red Cross, Boy Scouts and Camp Fire Girls. Right from the start, though, islanders showed their compassion and generosity. A total of $15,250 was raised that first year, in 1960, and the amount of donations grew with each passing campaign. Gone are the days of a volunteer’s knock at the door. Instead, One Call for All arrives each October with the nowfamiliar red envelope in local mailboxes. Along with growing needs, and more places where islanders can lend a hand — One Call for All now directs funds to 103 local nonprofits — the Red Envelope campaign has made a meaningful impact for many in the Bainbridge community. One Call for All has distributed more than $10 million to nonprofit organizations during the past 10 years. Where the money goes each year, of course, is decided by those who give. One hundred percent of the donations received by One Call for All goes to the recipients selected by the givers. No operating costs for One Call for All come
from donations, unless specifically noted by the donor. Choices run the gamut, from: • Youth services and organizations (including Kiwanis, the Boys & Girls Club, youth scholarships, local sports clubs and more); • Health and human services providers (including nonprofits such as the Bainbridge Island Special Needs Foundation, Helpline House, Hope House and Island Volunteer Caregivers and others); • Environment and recreation (Bainbridge Island Land Trust, Bainbridge Island Parks Foundation, West Sound Wildlife Shelter and more); • Arts and humanities (cultural institutions such as the Bainbridge Island Historical Museum, Bainbridge Island Museum of Art, as well as vital community mainstays such as Bainbridge Performing Arts, Ovation! Performing Arts Northwest and Island Theatre); • Off-Island organizations (the list includes Kitsap Humane Society, Meals on Wheels Kitsap, and United Way of King County); and
PAGE 3
• Community outreach and enrichment groups, emergency services and nonprofits focused on schools and early childhood education. A full list of Red Envelope nonprofits can be found on One Call for All’s website, located at onecallforall.org. (Donors can also visit the website to make a direct, tax-deductible contribution with a credit card.) The annual Red Envelope drive, Bainbridge’s largest philanthropy campaign on the island, runs through Dec. 31.

what they wished Owen’s legacy to be. “My husband Kelsey and I didn’t even have to think about it—the idea was so clear. We knew we wanted to build a place for the community where all kids were afforded the opportunity to play,” Marshall said.
By Erin Jennings Playgrounds are childhood staples. It’s where kids master the art of swinging, learn to take turns on the slide and play hide-and-seek in the nooks and crannies. But for children who aren’t able to navigate traditional playgrounds, they are often left to watch the play from the sidelines. This was a situation that the Marshall family knew too well. Owen Marshall had quadriplegia cerebral palsy and his condition made visiting playgrounds extremely difficult — especially if it was a family outing with his younger brother, Elliot. “Owen would either have to be carried while I followed and helped Elliot, or I’d have to lie him on a

And that was heartbreaking. We were
missing an important piece of our family.” Owen passed away in 2013 and a few days after his death, a close friend of the Marshall family asked
The money from Owen’s memorial, coupled with a contribution from the Marshall family, got the playground ball rolling. Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District quickly got on board and helped the playground plant its roots at Rotary Park off Weaver Road. Word of Owen’s Playground spread and soon many community members became part of the fun.

Continued from page 10 can crawl, walk and roll under the colorful art. Classmates and friends of Owen as well as children across Bainbridge Island and Kitsap County, have donated allowance money to the cause. Playground experts (aka kids) have product-tested some of the equipment— which they gave two thumbs up. The playground will have traditional favorites but with a twist. The equipment has been modified so children have fewer barriers to play. The We-Saw is like a seesaw except it’s sturdier and uses bucket seats. The Expression Swing is a two-forone swing, where parent and child can swing together. And the Slide Mound allows kids to run or wheel up the mound to the slide’s entrance (no stairs!) and then ride down the slide. Owen’s Playground team members have thought of everything. For instance, the equipment will be built on smooth, poured-in-place rubberized surfaces because pea gravel and bark are too difficult to traverse. They’ve even created spaces for kids who need to retreat to quieter areas of the playground, yet who

still want to be part of the action. And for children who have difficulty regulating their body temperatures, there’s space to play under sail-like awnings. Sarah Brandt-Erichsen, a member of the development team for Owen’s Playground, believes 99 percent of the users of the playground won’t have access challenges. But for those who do, or for the mom who has multiple scoliosis and is wheelchair-bound, or the grandfather who is hearing impaired and needs clear sight-lines to help keep track of his grandchild, “This space allow families to recreate outdoors together,” she said. As for Owen, Marshall knows what he would have enjoyed most about the playground: the sound of laughter. “Because of his limited vision, hearing was Owen’s most important sense. He’d light up when he’d hear his peers playing,” Marshall said. “Anytime he was stimulated, he’d arch his body – it was his way of smiling.” Owen’s Playground is scheduled to be open for play in 2016. Funds raised through OCFA will help with

When it’s complete, Marshall envisions it becoming a popular place where the community gathers. “If you can afford populations to come together and eliminate barri-
ers, we can build compassion and empathy,” Marshall said. “If we can get all kids outside and having fun together, think how those relationships will affect the children as they go forward in life.”

Tradition keepers
Honoring the past and promoting the future By Erin Jennings Nestled in the woods off High School Road stands a tan building with a long history. If you drive by too quickly, you might miss it and the significance the Filipino American Community of Bainbridge Island & Vicinity has on the region. The local Fil-Am community is just as vibrant as it was back when it got its start during World War II and played an important role keeping the local agriculture industry afloat. “My dad, his uncles and his cousins migrated from the Philippines and eventually made it to Bainbridge Island,” said Gene Tabafunda, president of the Fil-Am com-

munity. “When Bainbridge Island Japanese were being interned, they asked the Filipinos to care for the land and farm it. And when the Japanese returned, the Filipinos purchased their own land and began farming.” Tabafunda said that to help with harvesting, his family heard there were Native Americans who understood the hard work involved and that’s how the Filipinos struck-up relationships with Native Americans—hence the name Fil-Am. “Their idea was to raise enough children to help harvest the crops and continue with the farming,” Tabafunda said with a bit of a smile. “My family had 10 kids.” To provide a place to gather, the Fil-Am Community built the hall in the early 1940s. It was built as a place to hold functions and celebrations, and that’s a role it continues to fill today. Photo by Joel Sackett

Continued from page 12 “The Fil-Am Community really stressed the importance of culture and sticking together,” Tabafunda said. He recalls as a young boy listening to the elders speak their native language. Although he didn’t know what was being said, the conversations had a strong spirit of camaraderie. “Now there are only a few remaining pioneers and we are keeping the traditions and culture alive by teaching the next generations the values of respecting elders and learning where they’ve come from,” he said. Events such as The Strawberry Festival teaches the community about its roots while engaging up and coming younger members through the royal court. Children from ages 10 to 16 compete for titles such as King, Queen, Prince and Princess. The process teaches the children lifelong skills such as being well-spoken and how to interact with elders. “The process really brings the kids out of their shells,” Tabafunda said. Money raised through OCFA will

Island residents and the nonprofits that serve the community. Rather than being solicited individually from all the local nonprofits, OCFA complies a comprehensive list and the residents decide which organizations they wish to support. There is a real diversity of non-profits on the Island. Some are big organizations that have full-time fundraising staff, but there are also smaller organizations that rely heavily on funds raised through OCFA. For some of the smaller nonprofits, if OCFA didn’t exist, the organization wouldn’t survive and needs in our community would go unmet.

By Erin Jennings Life for preteen girls isn’t always easy: with one foot in childhood and the other heading toward the teen years, it can be easy to lose their footing.
Funds raised through OCFA go to help provide scholarships and to offset the expense of race registrations (the girls run either a 5K or 1-mile race at the end of the season).
But thanks to Go Run!, their feet learn the joy of running and all the benefits the sport provides. “Go Run! builds confidence,” said high school senior and mentor Mary Van Dyke. “At first the girls find running daunting, but after training and establishing friendships with other teammates, they’re soon running far distances.” Go Run! began in 2006 after three women were out for a run and discussed the role the sport has played in their lives. “We all agreed we would have loved to be on a team when we were younger. It’s much more fun to run in a group” said Anne Lindquist, one of the program’s founders. “Go Run! offers girls of all athletic abilities the opportunity to be part of a team while also setting individual goals.” Research conducted by Women’s Sports Foundation found that by age 14, girls drop out of sports at two times the rate of their male peers. With Go Run! it doesn’t matter if the girls are a natural or trying it out for the first time. The team motto holds true for all: Every girl is an athlete. “Some girls have never physically exerted themselves so hard,” said Laura Van Dyke, co-director, longtime runner and mother of teen mentor, Mary. “We teach them that it’s OK to sweat, to be out of breath and have tight muscles.” Participants learn techniques such as how to properly stretch, how to move arms when running and helpful breathing patterns to avoid side stitches. There are life lessons on making healthy eating choices and a section on body image where it’s emphasized that everyone is different and that there are lots of versions of normal. An added benefit to the program is the camaraderie that is built between the

“Go Run! really builds self-confidence,” Lindquist said. “It’s very empowering to train for and finish a race. The girls learn that if they put effort into something, they are rewarded.”

Big-city doctors with Islandcentered care By Erin Jennings Caring for medical conditions from A to practically Z — allergy testing to X-rays to be exact — Virginia Mason Bainbridge Island Medical Center (VMBIMC) has stood watch over Winslow Way and the Bainbridge Island community for years. “Some of our patients were born in our building, back when it was The Winslow Clinic,” said Catherine Edwards, MD and section head for VMBIMC. “Many of our staff members have worked here for several decades. The longest has been part of the team for over 35 years.” With its sprawling building in the center of town, VMBIMC is a reliable fixture for the community. Many of you probably have its phone number memorized and know the check-in attendants by name. The staff at VMBIMC is integrated into the community as well, further strengthening the doctorpatient relationship. Your doctor might coach your daughter’s soccer team.

You see familiar VMBIMC faces in the grocery aisles and in the library stacks. “Our patients are our friends and neighbors, and we are strongly committed to ensuring all aspects of the health of our community,” Edwards said. “We are relentless in our efforts to find ways to better serve our patients.” These better ways include adding urgent care (opened in January 2015) and expanding office hours to better accommodate commuters and busy schedules. The list of specialists at VMBIMC has grown as well, making medical trips to Seattle unnecessary for Islanders. Instead, services like mammography and bone density screening can be done right in Win-

Past funds have been used to purchase a spirometer, which is a device used to measure the volume of air inspired and expired from the lungs. Thanks to OCFA, another recent purchase was a phlebotomy chair used to make blood draws more comfortable. “Our goal is to help improve health and wellness at every opportunity for each patient, their families and our community,” Edwards said. With the Island’s population hovering around 24,000 and with 38,000 patient visits in 2014, VMBIMC is making a great impact on the Island’s health and wellness.

Tickling the ivories How 88 keys unlocked the music By Erin Jennings There was a grand-sized hole in the community and Darden Burns knew just what to do. “There wasn’t a piano in a public space that was suitable for recitals and concerts,” Burns said. “The time had come to put a piano in Winslow.” Burns, who teaches piano and has an extensive musical background, founded Bainbridge Community Piano Association with the mission to purchase and maintain a high-quality grand piano for public use. “It’s one of the bummers about being a pianist,” Burns said. “You can’t throw your instrument in your car and take it with you.” BCPA was formed in 2002 and in three years, the nonprofit raised enough money to purchase a $30,000 Yamaha C6 grand piano. The top-notch piano is kept in the Waterfront Park Community Center where it can be rented with the venue for recitals and parties. The piano acquisition also sparked the inspiration for Burns’ next idea. “Once we got the piano, I knew I wanted to offer highlevel, high-caliber music to the public,” Burns said.

A montage of BCPA programs shows how much has already been done.
Continued from page 20 “We’ve really built a following and the audience is always attentive and appreciative,” Burns said. “At 4 p.m. on the first Sunday of the month, it’s all about the music.” BCPA doesn’t have the resources for big fundraising campaigns and instead relies on OCFA to help garner community support. Monies raised through the annual campaign are critical to BCPA’s
success: more than one-third of its operating budget comes from OCFA. The money pays for maintenance of the piano, insurance and to offset concert expenses. As for Burns, her payment comes in a different form. “My payoff is to sit back and listen to the piano be played by students and professionals,” Burns said. “It’s a pure joy to sit and listen to it.”

A: We are good at helping nonprofits raise money, and I would like to see us help them year-round. I plan to start a brown-bag lunch series where we convene on relevant topics like marketing, events, social media and development, so that we can all learn about best practices and build a professional community of support. Q: How do you describe OCFA to those who aren’t familiar with the organization? A: I think of OCFA like a matchmaker. We match the good intentions and charitable intent of donors with the good work that is happening on the Island. As a community, we are all served by a healthy nonprofit sector and we all benefit. At OCFA, we facilitate relationships between the nonprofits and the donors who want to make a difference on the Island.
