Buccaneers set sail over the horizon By Nick Twietmeyer Kitsap News Group
On June 15 came the moment Kingston High School Seniors had all been waiting for, the chance to breathe a sigh of relief and rejoice in a fresh kind of freedom: deliverance from bell schedules, homework, exams and all the other demands of high school. Finally, the end was in sight ... Well, at least for those who brought sunglasses anyway. Beneath a nearly cloudless June sky and sat atop a blindingly-white stage, students took it all in as friends and family cheered from the stands of North Kitsap High School stadium, while the happy seniors enjoyed their final moments of high school. Those unfortunate enough to have forgotten their sunglasses squinted from the merciless glare of the sun reflecting off the white, plastic tiles laid afield for the occasion, but even those without shades appeared to be in good spirits. Kingston’s new principal, Jack Simonson, addressed the students at the event. “It is my honor and privilege to be with you here today as the principal of Kingston High School,” Simonson began. “As you’ll note in this program, this is where I celebrate the growth and accomplishments of this, the class of 2019. I’ll start by acknowledging the elephant in the stadium: I’ve only been the principal here for a little longer than two months.” Referring to his previous role as an educator with North Kitsap High School, Simonson was the first to admit that he may be biased when comparing Kingston to NKHS.

Body of missing man recovered from lake Kitsap County Sherif f ’s Office repor ted June 18 that the body of a Von Marenholtz deceased male, believed to be that of Steven Walter Von Marenholtz, 47, had been located by divers in Wildcat Lake. Von Marenholtz was an employee of the Port of Kingston. Von Marenholtz’ family has been notified, according to KCSO. The body was found in water 10-to12 feet deep and about 35 feet from the shoreline in front of Wildcat Lake Park. The divers who recovered the body are members of Underwater Search and Rescue Volunteers - Kitsap County. Sheriff’s deputies do not suspect that any criminal actions were involved in Von Marenholtz’s death. Prior to finding Von Marenholtz’s body, he had not been seen or heard from within the previous two days, according to a Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office Facebook post. He was reported missing by his roommates and was last seen at approximately 12:30 p.m. June 16, when he told his roommates he was going swimming. The Facebook post states that when Von Marenholtz didn’t return, the roommates went to find him and his truck

“Before coming here I used to work [at North Kitsap High School],� the principal said. “This means that I’m not only naive, but likely riddled with flawed perspective when it comes to Kingston High School. I wouldn’t blame you for being skeptical for anything I have to say at this point. I have my own doubts as well.� Simonson’s remarks elicited a chuckle from the audience, before the principal appeared to earnestly acquiesce that he had been at a loss while attempting to draft his graduation speech. Simonson explained that he became inspired, in part by the words of the speakers at North Kitsap High School’s

The absurdity of things like GPA, credits, bells and rules.� “I’ll admit, my armor cracked a little bit last night,� Simonson continued. “As a lifelong public school employee, I’m no stranger to rebellion, but I’m also no stranger to the long hours and hard
work each of us puts in for days just like today.� “Our critics are not necessarily wrong,� Simonson admitted. “To the people that say our schools might be flawed or broken, I can’t necessarily disagree, we’re not perfect.� “Here’s the thing schools are not just buildings and rules and unfair policies, they are people, we are people and that’s a really good thing. Though never perfect, people have the ability to listen, we have the ability to adapt and change. This means that
schools do too. It also means that as people, schools can be kind, caring, compassionate and fun.� “My hope for you, Kingston High School students, graduates, parents and loved ones, is that you will remember our school not for its flaws, mistakes, hot days and bright sun, but for its humanity and heart, we are both of those things.�

Feeling blue? Try a little green instead Is your peace of mind running on empty? Are you hounded by selfdoubt? Must you be constantly achieving something just to be content? Do you find yourself tyrannized by obligations and timetables? If so, try trading the Blues for the Greens. In short, immerse yourself in a Kitsap forest now and then, without your phone. I know, those last three words are social heresy, but it’s recommended by experts. Modern studies proclaim that the cure for our headlong rush to productivity lies among the foliage, amid a hundred shades of greenery. Luckily, Kitsap County is replete with Nature’s sanctuaries, large and small, from the Hansville area up north, to the far southern reaches. In this we are truly blessed. Wherever you live, there’s a forest refuge not far away. Today I’m walking among tall, commanding
KITSAP, NATURALLY By NANCY SEFTON evergreens, trying to jettison negative thoughts and let my surroundings take charge of my brain. “Hmmm…pretty moss… golden yellow; how striking beside those bluegreen leaves! Narrow, twisty little creek… I love those gurgling sounds. Where does the water end up? That rotting stump… I wonder if birds are nesting inside? Ooops! Rustling in the ferns… a rabbit? possum? Critters watching me from their hideaways! Are they poking fun at my hat?”
If you can fixate on the colors, patterns, smells, textures, and sounds of the forest, you’re immersed in a popular Japanese tradition, “shinrin-yoku,” which translates as forest bathing, i.e. immersion in Nature. Studies show it decreases blood pressure, heart rate and stress; in short, you just feel better, mentally. One famous Stanford study used brain scans and questionnaires to test human volunteers, before and after a forest trek. The participants’ green experience had a noticeable effect: fewer negative thoughts, the kind that lead to depression. Time to bring up gardening. Did you know that gardeners, on average, weigh less, are less likely to be depressed, and have greater self-esteem? One more thing: if you have room to include a few veggies (without using pesticides), all the better for your mental and physical health.
What about pets? It’s been shown that besides the emotional support they provide, especially in trying times, walking the dog(s) has benefits too, especially in a green setting. Interestingly, dog owners have a one-third lower risk of heart disease and high blood pressure. If you’re dog-less, offer to walk the neighbor’s pet once in awhile, and see if your overall health improves. The great naturalist John Muir called us “America’s tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people.” He’d be gratified to know that Nature is the new “Vitamin N,” a mind medicine with no side effects. Further, it’s free and there’s no prescription necessary. Once in awhile, let yourself experience natural history overload. How lucky we are that in Kitsap County, pavement is the exception; greenery is the rule. See you on the trail!
A walk in the forest can heal the mind.

The elephant Rehashing boater safety around the ferries in the room FERRY FARE Size matters
This column is about making smart and responsible choices with the future in mind. My approach to selecting topics reveals my conviction that changing how we think and improving the human-made systems we have in place is key to supporting more beneficial outcomes. We’ve probably all heard the old parable about three blind men standing near the same elephant but each touching a different part of the animal. No surprise they draw three different conclusions about what it is that’s in front of them. The point of that story is that we humans have a strong tendency to claim truth based on our limited, By BETH BERGLUND subjective experience while not valuing other people’s limited, subjective experiences which may be equally true and equally incomplete. Were those blind men who misidentified the elephant lying? Are they telling the truth? The answer depends on what meaning you give the terms. In a 1985 “On Language” article pubBiased news has lished in the New York Times entitled “What gained a strong Lie Implies,” columnist foothold probably William Safire explored whether a lie was because research merely an untruth, or indicates that many, a falsehood, told with intent. His maybe even most malicious semantic judgment was of us don’t want that “to most people, not to all, the the truth, we want although word lie embraces the our personal beliefs meaning of ‘deliberate.’” I personally use confirmed. “lie” exclusively when I perceive there is an intent to deceive with malice. Without malice, I am more inclined to choose words like misinformed, confused, biased and misunderstood. Intentional false claims are the ever growing and destructive part of our media ecosystem. A subset of false claims is what we call “fake news” which is not news at all, it’s messaging designed to deceive or manipulate the readers, often to support a political agenda. Satire in contrast is transparent and uses irony and humor to entertain and influence, rather than to deceive or manipulate. Biased news has gained a strong foothold probably because research indicates that many, maybe even most of us don’t want the truth, we want our personal beliefs confirmed. Unlike fake news, biased media is intrinsic to some degree because a human with their own subjective experience is involved — remember the elephant. Consuming biased news doesn’t necessarily represent the risk to the stability of our democracy or the fabric of society that fake news does, if we temper its impact and remain aware of both our individual selection and confirmation biases. In order to create the better world we each want, I challenge myself and us all to be as clear as we can be about the nature of the media we are consuming regularly and why. Are my eyes open to what is fact, biased, and opinion? Do I keep out the fake sources that rely on my clicks and forwards? Do my choices of media take an honest and well-intentioned approach to informing me in a way that contributes to me being a better citizen? Let’s start making good choices for the future today.
CHOICES FOR THE FUTURE
Five whistle blasts are a ferry’s cheery “hello”… it means we’re in danger. The cartoon’s “Law By WALT of Gross Tonnage” doesn’t come from ELLIOTT jurisprudence. It’s Newton’s first law: objects in motion (a ferry) stays in motion until another force (another boat) acts upon it. Without a crunch to slow it down, a ferry takes 60 seconds and two ferryboat lengths to stop. While Newton’s law won’t hold up in court, if we ignore it we won’t be there to hear the verdict.
Awareness Capt. John Tullis (WSF retired) shared some wisdom on how boaters can avoid getting tangled up with ferries. The cardinal rule is “situational awareness.” That means paying attention to what the boats around you are doing and using common sense. Knowing the Rules of the Road is important but also remember: they’re written for situations when two boats meet. On the cove in summer lots of boats may be coming together, so we simply have to do our level best to stay out of each other’s way. Up in the ferry’s pilothouse, with its height above the water and spe-
Letter Olds’ climate change claims are reminiscent of Chicken Little Marylin Olds boldly states we are in a sixth mass extinction event in her June opinion column. The last five occurred over the last 540 million years. In this latest “the sky is falling” cry, we’re now told that over half of the higher life forms on the planet will be extinct by 2100. Previous mass extinctions coincided with cyclical ice ages. Generally, we have about 90,000 years of ice followed by 10,000 to 15,000 years of warming. Our current warming period has lasted about 11,000 years. What is most disturbing is the incessant doom and gloom and end of the world rhetoric that continues
cialized electronics, they can assess the situation and head for the safest path. That may mean turning towards you to avoid a boat you can’t see. When we’re around ferries we need to be predictable. If changing course, make it obvious and keep moving. To quote one skipper: “When you’re not moving, I don’t know what’s going through your mind.”
Visibility If you’re so close to a ferry that you can’t see the pilot house, then they can’t see you. That’s inside of about 50 feet, or under the ferry dock. Every year paddle boards, canoes,
to be spewed upon us. Even worse, instead of honest debate on the science, it’s claimed the science is settled and anyone who disagrees is akin to those who deny the holocaust happened. During my life, I have experienced this same trepidation, over and over. I was told we were entering the next ice age, then the rain forests were disappearing, then it was acid rain, then nuclear winters, ocean acidification, then the ozone was being destroyed, then it was global warming because of man made impacts. We were assured by scientists that we would have 50 million climate refugees from rising sea levels by 1990 then bumped to 2000 then to 2010 then to 2020 and now bumped to 2035. Instead, we show population increases in each and every area that was predicted to be uninhabitable. None of these have materialized despite the fact we were assured that science had

reached “consensus” on each. It’s only when we investigate despite consensus, that we find the earth is not flat or the center of the universe. Recently, a few rebel scientists debunked the consensus on eugenics, phrenology and many, many others. I’d like to ask just one question: the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has asked for $170 trillion to, reduce climate temperatures by less than one degree Fahrenheit by 2100. Do you think that’s a wise investment? I would rather prepare for the coming cold than saddle our grandchildren with insurmountable debt and nothing to show for it. The road to saving the planet is paved with investigation, looking at ALL the science, reasoning and common sense responses to verified conclusions. I’ve never been impressed with Chicken Little.

Maneuvering room Think of small boats as gazelles running around the feet of elephants. Ferries need a clear run going into and coming out of the dock. Try to give them a half mile, or about halfway across the Cove. Avoid putting down fishing gear on the ferry track to and from Edmonds. These are on the charts and legally you can’t fish within a one-quarter mile of them. While vessels engaged in fishing have right of way, that rule applies only to boats such as trawlers with nets, not to recreational fishermen. While sailboats also have the right of way, tacking in front of a ferry would violate Rule 2, (good seamanship) as well as the security zones. If you’re racing that may get you a penalty.
Bottom line You probably knew all this, but still it’s a reminder that may keep us from hearing the question: “Honey, why are you trying to kill us?” The July and August Ferry Advisory Committee meetings have been cancelled.

Book it. The 13th annual Swing for Rotary Golf Tournament is in the books. The tournament has been staged every year at White Horse Golf Club. Kingston North Kitsap Rotarian Nancy Martin tells of the first year, 2007, when the tournament was almost cancelled before it began, because White Horse was not yet “officially” open. Only through contacts at the county were Nancy and others able to secure the final permit that allowed the first tournament to take place. Now, thirteen years later, hundreds of thousands of dollars have been raised by the tournament in support of the causes of Kingston North Kitsap Rotary Club. This year’s event saw fewer golfers than in years past, but enthusiasm was
clearly not in decline. On a crystal clear Friday afternoon, the shotgun was fired at precisely one o’clock commencing action on the course. Action off the course continued throughout the afternoon with silent auction bidders upping the ante on an array of dozens of silent items sponsored by the Point Casino and Hotel. Following golf, cocktails flowed, dinner was served, a live auction commenced, paddles were raised, and prizes were awarded. More than $14,000 was raised for the kids of North Kitsap by generous golfers and guests. Beneficiaries will be Kingston area schools,
North Kitsap’s Food4Kids program, Kitsap Homes of Compassion and more. Total proceeds from the tournament were $35,000, all of which the Rotary Club puts to good use in the North Kitsap community. A highlight of this year’s event was the putting contest sponsored by Windermere Real Estate - Catherine Arlen, and the putting jackpot sponsored by Liberty Bay Auto. Dozens of golfers tried their stroke on a fifty foot uphill, sideways, downhill putt to qualify to try to sink the jackpot putt for $10k. Two drilled the fifty-footer.

Commission moves forward with ferry fare increases By TYLER SHUEY Kitsap News Group
The Washington State Transportation Commission agreed to move forward with ferry fare and policy change proposals from Washington State Ferries on June 19, the proposals will now receive public comment through the end of July until the final hearing on Aug. 6. The proposals passed by the commission included a general fare increase, increase of passenger and vehicle fares and implementation of a capital surcharge. All proposals were passed unanimously by WSTC
except for one item related to reservation no-show fees, which passed 6-1, with the lone opposition vote coming from Commissioner Roy Jennings.

construction or other costs to make it easier to continue construction on subsequent vessels. The next proposal presented by Deardorf and WSF was an international market screen, which would increase oversize vehicle fares by 5 percent each year, in excess of the general fare increase to better align with competitors’ oversize vehicle fares. Analysis by WSF showed that increasing the oversize vehicle fare by five percent each year is estimated to generate additional revenue of $28,000 to $40,000 over the biennium. A low income fare pilot program could start no earlier than 2020 and would offer low-income fare on any ferry route eligible riders. If implemented, WSF would provide,
at a minimum, biannual updates to the transportation commission on the pilot, which would conclude no longer than three years after its implementation. The lone proposal that did not pass unanimously was related to reservation no-show fees. WSF wrote “Where it is operationally necessary, a reservation no-show fee may be used in lieu of a deposit. The no-show fee will be limited to 25 to 100 percent of the applicable 14’ to under 22’ standard vehicle fare and will be charged if the customer does not travel within the same service day as their reserved sailing, provided there are no service disruptions.” A disability charge would allow for passengers age 65
and over half-fare passenger toll on any route. In addition, people with disabilities who require attendant care will travel free if documentation is provided.
Next Step The commission will hold a final hearing on the proposed ferry fare and policy changes Aug. 6 at 10 a.m. in the Puget Sound Regional Council Board Room in Seattle. Public comments gathered through July will be taken into consideration and those in attendance will have the opportunity to testify at the hearing before the commission takes final action.

Initiative brings farms and food banks closer
SHARENET & YOU By MARK INCE When Full Tilth Farm or Roots Farm drop off fresh, out-of-the-earth produce to ShareNet, everyone smiles because the produce is beautiful and everyone wins, because good food is the likeliest means to good health. These deliveries were brokered by Farm to Food Pantry (F2FP), a dream match initiative helping both locals facing food insecurity and local small farmers. Even with our own purchasing, fantastic support from Kingston’s Giving Garden, Poulsbo Lions Firehouse Garden, and home gardener donors, ShareNet struggles to have
enough fresh produce to make that category the biggest part of what we distribute. F2FP is a partnership between WSDA, Rotary First Harvest, and local leads, in our case the Kitsap Conservation District (KCD), now operating in 21 counties across Washington. For every dollar invested, five pounds of produce was received by food banks to distribute. Now in its sixth year, F2FP first came to Kitsap through the efforts of KCD’s Diane Fish. WSDA recognized that Kitsap already had a certain amount of infrastructure around garden and gleaning efforts, likely making it an effective participant in F2FP. As poverty levels and need in the community were also taken into consideration, KCD was a natural fit, working with both the Agricultural and Emergency Food sectors. F2FP has already garnered “national recognition as a unique model of state agency leadership that jointly benefits the agricultural community and meets the
nutritional needs of lower-income people,” according to Nichole Garden of WSDA. While WSDA has provided funding and tools, KCD has identified farmers, established purchasing contracts, coordinated deliveries, and reported results. “The concept for F2FP was originally developed after a series of post-harvest conversations with growers across the state, focused on strategies to engage small to mid-size farmers in hunger relief efforts,” according to Garden. While farmers wanted to help, many struggle themselves. A small infusion of cash at the beginning of the season, such as that provided through F2FP, can make a critical difference in a farmer’s success. In 2018, almost $80,000 was paid to 67 participating farmers, and 84% of them reported some financial benefit in being part of F2FP. F2FP allows flexibility in how lead agencies and food banks contract with local farmers. The wholesale method commits a specified dollar amount to pur-

chase unspecified produce determined later based on production success. Precontracting specifies type, quantity, and cost as the season begins. Post-harvest commits funding at outset, but the food bank pays for it later. For many small farmers, F2FP has been their first test of wholesale marketing. Funding for F2FP comes out of the state Emergency Food Assistance Program (EFAP) budget. All lead agencies are asked to leverage their WSDA grant to obtain at least $500 in matching funds. Despite having demonstrated its benefits to food bank clients and farmers alike, the ini-
tiative is not yet sustainable solely within government operations. As its funding future remains to be seen, the program vision for F2FP at six years in becomes ever clearer, says Garden. WSDA envisions a phased development model in each county, where maximum funding is provided for the first two seasons with a local community matching requirement for startup. The next two seasons would operate with slightly reduced funding but an increased community match. State funding would decline as the local community becomes invested in sustaining more of the operational costs. A direct state budget request is being explored. Since lead agencies know
local needs best, F2FP has kept the purchasing power at their discretion. In 2018 over 65,000 pounds of produce was purchased for food banks at an average of $1.20 per pound, a real bargain. Over 100,000 additional pounds were donated out of the relationships forged between food banks and farmers, reducing the average cost to an incredible $0.46 per pound. 2019 saw the addition of Grays Harbor and Spokane Counties as well as Kitsap. As a participating food bank, we are grateful for F2FP’s vision in brokering the best kind of public/ private partnership, an arrangement which brings growers and providers closer, and great food and health closer to low income consumers.

Some recent highlights, says Bennion: “We had a traditional London taxi, a few great Cobras and Ford Broncos, thirties’ hotrods, and a bunch of orphans—cars no longer in production, like the AMX Javelin and the British Hillman station wagon.” I saw everyone’s favorite, a blue and white ’57 Chevy with its flashy fins. There was even a ’57 Chevy wagon. Both cars are now prized by collectors, although they didn’t sell well at the time. Be sure to try the delicious barbecue lunch: your

Kiwanis fundraising for kids KINGSTON KIWANIS BY PAT BENNETTFORMAN Kingston Kiwanis focuses its service projects on kids. The club contributes to Food4Kids summer food boxes, manages the Backto-School with Kiwanis school supplies program which assists nearly 200 youth, sponsors scholarships so that Boys and Girls Club members can participate in the Kingston Sails boating program, and offers college scholarships. The club also funds Family Builder activities throughout the year, and
other events to support children in the Greater Kingston area. To accomplish all its work with and in support of “kids,” Kiwanis relies on the support of the community with its major fundraising efforts. On June 8, 2019, the club hosted its sixth Benefit Concert and Brew Fest. The beautiful weather, fine music by the Lee Pence Trio, the Relics and the Dan and Liam Duo and contributions of the local breweries made for a very successful event. Folks enjoyed the food booths too, especially Argensal and Westside Pizza. Thank you to all the community members who came out to contribute. A highlight of summer for many Kingston
residents is getting their Kiwanis blueberries to make berry shortcake, ice cream sundaes and jams. And of course, having plenty to freeze for use yearround. These big, beautiful and delicious blueberries are the best around, available in five pound boxes for just $22. Kiwanis blueberry pre-orders are being accepted now. Visit greaterkingstonkiwanis.weebly.com for an order form or call Dahlia at 360-881-0161. Order by July 26, 2019, for delivery on the 28th. The third fundraiser, now in its fourth year, is the end of summer Salmon Slam. Kingston folk have three ways to contribute to the fund raising: • Ordering whole salm-

Serving Kingston and North Kitsap since 1986
Dear Jan: I am buying a home that is on a two party well. I do not want to share a well. Can I get my own well? MD Dear MD: Congrats on your soon to be new home. Many times, when a piece of land was short platted the sellers or buyers put in one well to service two properties or even four properties. It was common practice to do this because it saved money to only have one well. The owners of the two or four parcels would then share in the cost of the electricity and maintenance of the well. Could they have instead put in a well on each parcel? Perhaps. It would depend on setbacks and County regulations. So, to answer your question, you might be able to drill your own well on
JUST ASK JAN By JAN ZUFELT your own property. You will want to contact one of our awesome well drilling companies here in Kitsap County and get their advice. You will want to give them the tax parcel number so that they can get started. They can then easily tell you the depths of the wells in the area and if you can put in that new well you want. Best wishes in your new home. Jan

Juli Inkster cruises to victory at Suquamish Clearwater Legends Cup By Mark Krulish Kitsap News Group
KINGSTON — Juli Inkster made a difficult course look easy June 7-8 at the Suquamish Clearwater Legends Cup. The LPGA and World Golf Hall-of-Famer followed up a course record 8-under 65 on day one with a 7-under 66 on day two at White Horse Golf Club to
capture the victory in the LPGA Legends Tour event by four strokes. After sinking a birdie putt from about ten feet on 16, Inkster pumped her fist in celebration, knowing she had moved three strokes ahead with just two holes remaining. “I played pretty conservative, I tried to take advantage of the par 5’s,” Inkster

said. “I played steady for 36 holes, it was nice.” Inkster followed a similar script on both days. On day one, she split eight birdies evenly between the front nine and back nine and then started day two with four more birdies on the front nine. White Horse is known to be a tough course, but Inkster wasn’t fazed. “You definitely have to hit the fairway,” Inkster said. “It’s a second shot course, you have to get some good iron shots in there.” The Pacific Northwest has been kind to Inkster, who also works as a golf commentator for Fox Sports. She won her very first LPGA Tour event at the Safeco Classic in 1983, beating future World Golf Hallof-Famer Kathy Whitworth at Meridian Valley Country Club in Kent. 36 years later, she still enjoys golfing in the northwest and is eager to return to White Horse Golf Club in 2020. “I’m looking forward to coming back,” Inkster said. Michele Redman, an Ohio native and former LPGA Tour golfer, was hot on her heels for much of day two after getting off to a fast

start. Redman sunk birdie putts on two of the first three holes and jumping up further on the leaderboard with an eagle on the par 5 eighth hole. Back-to-back birdies on nine and ten put her within one stroke with eight holes to play. Redman ended up parring the rest of the way to finish at 11-under. “I’m a little more practiced this year because we had the open a couple weeks ago,” Redman said. “That really is the biggest
difference for me.” Moira Dunn-Bohls was paired up with Inkster on Saturday, and if not for a couple of poor shots on five, Dunn-Bohls could have been right in the thick of things. Dunn-Bohls put her tee shot into some deep rough on the right-hand side of the fairway. From there she sent the ball across the course and into the out-of-bounds area for a penalty stroke. She ended up with a double-bogey on the hole, drop-
ping her down to 5-under. She did, however, rebound nicely with four-consecutive birdies on eight, nine, ten and 11, finishing tied for third at 8-under for the tournament with defending champion Trish Johnson.

Legends Tour takes leap forward in 2nd year
SPORTSVIEW By MARK KRULISH The Safeco Classic was once the premier golf event in the Pacific Northwest. From 1982 to 1999, the best female golfers in the world stepped up to the tee boxes at Meridian Valley in Kent and delivered a good show to a golf-mad region. By the end of its run, the tournament was the only annual stop in the region, though about six years later, the GTE Northwest Classic was resurrected as the Boeing Classic and held at Snoqualmie Ridge. Only occasionally has the area been in the national spotlight since then. The 2015 U.S. Open was held at Chambers Bay — some unseasonable 90-degree weather contributed to problems
with the greens — and Sahalee Country Club in Sammamish played host to the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship in 2016. The success of those tournaments has demonstrated the demand for high-level golf here, and the players love coming here to play in our temperate climate. Even with the Boeing Classic around, there is certainly room for another annual event. The LPGA Legends Tour has taken a step toward filling that void. This year, White Horse Golf Club in Kingston played host for a second time to the Suquamish Clearwater Legends Cup, a tournament that features a number of players who used to participate in the Safeco Classic, including four winners — Juli Inkster, Joanne Carner, Jan Stephenson and Maria Hjorth McBride. “You have to have the stability of years and years and years to build up a following,” said Bruce Christy, the director of golf at White Horse Golf Club. “You can’t just say, ‘Well, we’re going to go to White Horse for
two years, and then we’re going to go to Overlake for two years,’ because then the fans are like, ‘Where am I going?’” The good news is the event is returning for at least one more year, and there is certainly a case to be made for making it a permanent stop. For one, the access is incredible. There are no ropes, few restrictions and fans are able to get a little closer — within reason, of course — than they otherwise might at another event. It makes for a more intimate experience. The players have consistently said the course is topnotch. Inkster, a World Golf Hall-of-Famer, the captain of the U.S. Solheim Cup team and a commentator for Fox Sports, knows a thing or two about golf courses. Over her 30-year career, Inkster has played at golf courses all over the world. “The course was in awesome shape, all the ladies raved about how good a shape it’s in,” Inkster said. “It’s really a fun course to play.” White Horse has steadi-
ly improved since the Suquamish Tribe rescued it in 2010. The redesign left intact its difficulty while making it more fun and playable for the average golfer. It might not have any bells and whistles that sometimes accompany more well-known courses — no island greens, high hilltops or uphill shots or deep bunkers that feel like bottomless pits — but its huge trees and views of the Olympic Mountains make for a spectacular backdrop during your round. “This is a true Northwest test,” Christy said. Word-of-mouth does seem to be spreading. The crowd was noticeably bigger this year when Inkster and Moira DunnBohls came down the 18th fairway. About 200 people were crowded around the fringe or watched from the deck of the clubhouse, and I think there is even more room for improvement. Getting some of the bigger eligible names to come out for the tournament, such as Nancy Lopez, Patty Sheehan and Annika Sorenstam, are obvious

Mark Krulish / Kitsap News Group moves but more local outreach would also be a positive step. Every West Sound high school has a boys and girls golf team, and all but one play in the spring. It shouldn’t be too hard to find a way to get the golfers and their families to attend. Perhaps the top local players could take part in an amateur tournament the weekend before to win a slot in the professional tournament. How about getting the state champions from each classification to be a part of the pro-am? It could expand the reach of the tournament to central and eastern
Washington and get more folks coming in from those areas. A unique opportunity has presented itself. Kitsap doesn’t have much in the way of sporting events in the summer with the Bluejackets and the Pumas now gone. A county of 260,000 and a heck of a lot more people just a ferry ride away should be able to sustain at least one largescale tournament like this. Let’s hope it continues to grow in 2020.
