Higher utility rates part of 2015 budget
A ‘FOODLINE’ OF A DIFFERENT SORT
Increased rates allow city to keep up with costs, council president says
‘We consider this your war on the poor,’ critic says
BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
The Bremerton City Council approved increases in property taxes, utility rates and fees for services this week in order to fund the city’s 2015 budget. That action took place at its weekly meeting in preparation for adopting the budget which is set for Dec. 3. Overall, the city budget will increase from $34.4 million this year to $36.1 million in 2015. The total 2015 projected tax revenue (property taxes, sales taxes, business and occupation taxes and private utility taxes) in the General Fund is $23.048 million, approximately $984,000 more than 2014. As allowed by state law, the council opted to increase property taxes to residents by 1 percent, the maximum amount allowed. That is anticipated to bring in about $7 million. The city’s EMS levy is expected to bring in another $1.19 million, and the public safety bond levy will bring in about $891,000. In addition to the property tax increase, the council approved SEE UTILITIES, A9
City council not likely to re-visit ban on panhandling
BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
Even though advocates for the homeless told the Bremerton City Council this week that they intend to bring in the ACLU regarding the city’s recent ban on panhandling, City Council President Greg Wheeler said he doesn’t think the issue will be reconsidered. “Unless I see that a majority of the council wants to switch their votes on the ban, I don’t see this being on any upcoming agenda,” Wheeler said following the meeting. “Unless there is something that we missed, and I can be convinced of that, I don’t see this coming up again for another vote.” The council recently banned panhandling in specific locations throughout the city including near bank ATMs, bus stops and along major streets. That was done, according to Wheeler and other council members, for safety purposes. “As you know, I voted against the ban,” Wheeler said. “But I clearly can

t was a rainy Friday, but students from Bremerton High School were all smiles as they passed cans of beans and boxes of cereal one to another from the high school, across the street and down the block, to the Bremerton Foodline warehouse. The Bremerton High School annual student food drive garnered 4,018 pounds of food for Thanksgiving food baskets. “These kids are so important,” said Patti Peterson, executive director of the Bremerton Foodline. Included in the “Knight Food Chain” were the school’s leadership class, sports teams, the Key Club, the Junior ROTC, the Rotoact and others. They’ve now done the chain for several years, right before the holiday season. It’s a chance for them to do something about hunger,” Peterson said.

Thanksgiving comes early at Mountain View Middle School BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
For many students at Mountain View Middle School and their families, that festive Thanksgiving turkey dinner with all the trimmings will arrive a day early. That’s because staff, students and parents at the school, with the help of local school district administrators and school board members, are hosting Thanksgiving Dinner on Wednesday, Nov. 26. “It’s been a great way for us to build community,” said Michaeleen Gel-
haus, principal at Mountain View. “We’ve really pulled together as a community for this endeavor.” In past years, the school has made food baskets to send home with students whose families needed some help in order to have a turkey dinner on Thanksgiving, Gelhaus said. But when she began planning that this year, she became aware that some of the families don’t have the ability to prepare a dinner. “We have a number of families who are living in motels, or with friends, and don’t really have a kitchen where they can prepare a turkey,”
she said. “Some of our families are in transition and getting food that they couldn’t prepare wasn’t going to help them.” About 68 percent of the school’s 850 sixth, seventh and eighth grade students are on the government’s free or reduced lunch program, thus indicating a relatively high level of poverty, she said. So, she and her staff came up with the idea of preparing the dinner at the school and offering it to any of the students and their families who wanted to attend. Gelhaus said when parents came
for fall student-teacher conferences, they were each handed an invitation to the dinner. “Confidentially, and anonymously, they could write the number of people in the family and drop the invitation off in a box if they wanted to attend,” she said. They’re expecting about 160 people for turkey beginning at 4 p.m. in the school’s commons. Most of the makings for the dinner have been donated by school officials and local churches and it will be cooked at the school by volunteers. Many families from the school have
signed up to help serve and clean up dishes afterwards. “That was a nice twist for us,” Gelhaus said. “When we handed out the invitations at the conferences, several parents said they didn’t need to eat, but they wanted to help.” Too, a couple of teachers are having their art students make decorations for the tables. And the New Life Church, which uses the school for its Sunday services, is supplying the music at the dinner. Students will be out of school early SEE MOUNTAIN VIEW, A9

Bremerton’s crime rate has drastically dropped, according to statistics released last week by the FBI. And Police Chief Steve Strachan was happy to share the numbers with the city council at last week’s council meeting. “At one point, Bremerton had the highest rate of property crime in the state,” Strachan said. “But now we’re dropped to 38th. We’re below Tacoma, Everett and Seattle.” According to recent data, Bremerton has 48.95 property crimes per 1,000 people. The highest rate in the state is Tukwila at 167.42 per 1,000. Tacoma is 12th, Everett is 13th and Seattle is 27th. Bremerton’s rate of violent crime also has dropped, Strachan said. In 2005, we were the worst in that state,” he said, noting Bremerton had 11.7 incidents per 1,000 residents. “Today that has dropped to 5.71 per 1,000.” That gives Bremerton the rank of 15th in the state. Fife is listed was the worst at 9.49 violent crimes per 1,000 people. Tacoma is second at 8.69 crimes per 1,000 and Seattle is 13th at 5.85 crimes per 1,000. “To a person who is a victim of a violent crime, the numbers don’t matter,” he said. “But what we’re seeing is that there’s a growing sense of community in Bremerton and that’s making a difference. An example, he said, is that neighbors are calling 911 and reporting suspicious events rather than ignoring things that seem out of place.

Time to give thanks In our complicated, angry, violent world, it’s sometimes hard to find reasons to be thankful. But each year on the last Thursday in November, we take time to do just that. For those of us in the U.S., Thanksgiving can be traced back to a celebration at Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1621. The 1621 Plymouth feast and thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest. Pilgrims and Puritans who began emigrating from England in the 1620s and 1630s carried the tradition of Days of Fasting and Days of Thanksgiving with them to New England. Several days of Thanksgiving were held in early New England history that have been identified as the “First Thanksgiving.” As President of the United States, George Washington proclaimed the first nationwide thanksgiving celebration in America marking Nov. 26, 1789, “as a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God.” From that year forward, Americans annually have joined with family and friends on Thanksgiving to share in a feast of turkey, potatoes and cranberries. Every family’s favorite aunt brings the green bean casserole and there’s always sweet potatoes and pumpkin pie. Despite individual spiritual or religious beliefs, each of us have something to be thankful for. It may be that new job, improved health or even a new love. It may be something more simple, like having the day off. For some, it may be just having a meal and somewhere to spend the day with others. As a community, we have much to be thankful for — community leaders who make tough decisions, social services officials who care for our poor, great teachers who work with our children and all our police and firefighters who risk their lives to keep us safe. As the family gathers, share your thanks with each other. Think about what you can do to make the world a better, more peaceful place. And whatever you are thankful for, enjoy your Thanksgiving Day. Remember, too, to think about your blessings on Friday and every other day.

Sale of park brings about questions Citizen advisory committees are an important component of local control and self-governance. The vast majority of these types of committees are made up of volunteers that come from all across the community usually with a background or a passion for the subject matter at hand. I have served on a number of such committees. Currently I am one of seven that serves on the Bremerton Parks and Recreation Commission. This is why I have considerable empathy and dismay for the situation that the Kitsap County Parks Advisory Board currently finds itself in. This month it was revealed that the county is very close to selling a large 220-acre property to the Suquamish Tribe for $1.475 million. The Parks Advisory Board found out about the pending sale in the exact same manner that the rest of the county did which was through local press coverage. The very deliberate circumvention of the Parks Advisory Board by Parks Director Jim Dunwiddie in regards to this property and its sale does considerable damage and disservice to the direct voice of the community that such a committee provides. A decision such as this undermines the trust that citizens have in transparency and
Everything Bremerton
Colleen Smidt departmental accountability. By personally having a seat at the table of what has been a full years’ worth of hard and frank discussions on city parks operations, expenses and funding I can tell you that they struggle. Parks are struggling all over the region. Viewed by many as a “want” instead of a “need” parks funding is typically one of the first to be cut and the last to be restored. Community green spaces, once gone are hard if not impossible to gain back. The sale of surplus parks properties at any level are not decisions that should be made behind closed administration only doors. These are properties that belong to the public. The public deserves full disclosure, representation and stewardship at every point in the process.
Commissions and advisory committees involved with parks, green spaces and outdoor recreation are set within governing policy for specific purposes. These groups need the room, the information and the freedom to review and construct the recommendations that they have been entrusted with. They do not need to be circumvented, left in the dark, undermined and or torn apart before they have had the full opportunity to review all of the data, all of the options and put forth their official recommendations. My thanks to those who serve on the Kitsap County Parks Advisory Board. I would encourage the Kitsap County Commissioners to call into question the decision that was made to exclude the board from reviewing and weighing in on the sale of the property, who made it and why. I would also recommend that they put forth a correction that it does not happen again.

A few words about dealing with less holiday stress By LesLi DuLLumTuTTerrow Optimal Wellness inc.
The holidays are upon us. While some of us embrace the opportunities for family, food, football and fun, others approach the holidays with increased trepidation at the mere thought of being with extended family. Let’s face it. Family is fraught with difficulty. Whether you are soon to be face-to-face with your filterless Aunt Tilly or your boisterous step siblings, few situations have the potential to send us into a stress tailspin as being with our relatives for the holidays. As the saying goes, you can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family. So how does one minimize the impact and keep the chaos from turning into emotional, mental or physical carnage? How can you deal effectively with the difficult to deal with people in
your life and minimize your stress? Choose a beneficial perspective. Ask yourself, can I deal with my nosey aunt for just one day and actually attempt to enjoy her company instead of dreading it? You might consider asking her some questions about her life, which may keep her from prying into yours. Remember, you can only control yourself. Be on your best, most helpful and considerate behavior. Make sure the only pot you stir is the one on the stove. The holidays are not the time or venue to have it out with your brother–in-law who “forgot” to pay you back the money he borrowed three years ago. Conversely, you can’t control others, but you can set boundaries around their inappropriate behavior. Perhaps you have a relative that doesn’t “get the hint” when you attempt to change a touchy subject, or insists
upon talking politics when history has shown that sparks start flying 10 minutes into a political debate. It is perfectly appropriate to tell Uncle Fred that you would love to talk about anything other than politics. Show up bringing your best you. This means taking care of yourself and bringing your best self to the party. Make sure that you are eating and sleeping well and keeping up with (or starting) your work out regimen. If you start skimping on sleep, eating well and moving your body, you are more likely to experience impatience, irritability and increased intolerance for what otherwise might be a no big deal, ordeal. Question your thoughts and conclusions. Are there family members you have formed negative opinions about based on prior occasions? Is there a family member that you just

don’t click with? Consider approaching them this year with a “blank slate” and even being curious about them. Maybe your husband’s little brother has grown up a bit since last year. Perhaps your out-of-town cranky grandmother has been fighting chronic pain. Suspend your judgment long enough to crawl into someone else’s world. You might learn something and develop some compassion along the way. Abandon the perfection ship. While it is common to want everything to be
just right, remember it’s likely not going to be. You are dealing with family, i.e. imperfect people. So focus on creating an atmosphere that is conducive to people enjoying themselves, making great memories and having fun. But abandon ship when it comes to striving for “perfect.” It’s a surefire way to stress yourself out as well as the people around you. The holidays can bring a lot of joy, and/or a ton of added stress, so choose this year how you will approach them. Your attitude matters.
So keep the main thing the main thing. Are you grateful for your family? Do the holidays have religious or spiritual meaning for you? Stay focused on what is important, even if Uncle Fred tries to rattle your political cage.

It’s been a very sweet first year for Sugar Studios By Seraine Page Special to Sound publiShing
During the last year, Sugar Studios owner Daleen Grimes has provided sugar fixes in the form of cookies and baked goods from her Old Town Silverdale shop at 3330 N.W. Lowell St. This week marks her first year in business. While baking has always delighted her, it’s the reaction she’s had from customers that’s made her experience that much sweeter, she said. “(My favorite part has been) meeting this community that has embraced my craft of cookie design,” she said. “I have such loyal customers.” Part of that is due to her ability to shape a cookie into any design. And if she doesn’t have the exact cookie cutter she wants — and she has around 350 of those — Grimes has her husband handcraft the design she needs. He’s hand-made Easter egg cutters, submarine cutters and even an Olafshaped one, a favorite character from the movie Frozen. “Presentation is key to accentuating your cookies,” Grimes said while piping a sugar cookie

Young entrepreneur seeks success the American way
Leslie Kelly /staff photo
Owner Fang Tuckawarut learned the restaurant business from her parents in Thailand. Her Bremerton restaurant, where she is head chef, features some of the family recipes. By LesLie KeLLy lkelly@soundpublishing.com
To study in America is the dream of many young people in Thailand. But not many make that dream come true. Fang Tuckawarut is one of the lucky ones, as she sees it. “Thailand is seen by many as a poor country,” said the 27-year-old Thailand native. “For Thai people, they see the States as the country that has the best education in the world.” And that’s why Tuckawarut came to the United State about five
years ago. She already had an undergraduate degree in agricultural business but sought a master’s degree in business management. She researched programs and found that Northwest Christian University in Eugene, Oregon, had an international students program. With limited English and not knowing anyone in the U.S., she headed after her dream. And now she’s the owner-chef of Rimnam, a popular Thai restaurant in Bremerton. But it hasn’t been an easy route. While in school in
Eugene, she worked full time in a Thai restaurant and studied on the weekends. After graduating in December 2011, she opted to come to Seattle, where she hoped to find a job in business, but not the restaurant business. “I wanted to try the office thing,” she said. “But after awhile, I knew it was wrong. Cooking is my passion, so I decided to open my own restaurant.” She chose Bremerton because she found the people here to be friendly. “Once I came here, I felt peace,” she said of the area. She opened Rimnam in an

“Most of us take hearing loss as a part of getting older, or we think, ‘I can live with it.’ We frequently hear the phrase ‘quality of life,’ but most of us don’t really relate to its importance until a significant occurrence happens. I suffer from hearing loss. In the past, I did not fully realize the impact of hearing loss on my wife, family, and friends.

existing restaurant location in Manette and was doing well. But she wanted to have a place that was hers — from the decorations right down to the tables and chairs. So she moved Rimnam to the old Bay Theater at 2313 Wheaton Way. “The decorations are from Thailand,” she said. “And I picked out the tables and chairs and all the equipment in the kitchen.” She opened at her current location in April of this year. She serves a full menu of Thai cuisine and many of the dishes are made from old family recipes. “My parents has a restaurant in Thailand,” she said. “And before that, they had a noodle factory. I grew up in the business and I’ve carried over the family recipes.” Favorites of her customers are the Tasty Cashew stir fry, the Panang Curry which is served with potatoes, green beans, bell peppers, carrots and Thai basil, and Phad Thai, a noodle dish with egg, bean sprouts, green onion and garnished with ground peanuts. Everything she uses is fresh. “Many places use the cheapest ingredients that can,” she said. “I always use fresh. We want quality foods that are fresh, tasty and healthy.” Almost anything on the menu can be made for people with special dietary concerns. She offers gluten free meals and vegetarian cuisine. She alway uses 100 percent Jasmine rice. And there’s always a daily special. Right now she’s working on a new item — a Thai Wrap, which will include Thai rice and homemade peanut sauce in a wrap made of fried rice and green curry paste. On the specialty menu, the Rimnam Avocado Green
Curry is a favorite. While avocados are something that wouldn’t be served in Thailand, she knows in the U.S. they are a favorite. “Some of the specials are combinations of the family recipes and local items,” she said. “I like to combine things and create fusion in the food.” If overcoming the odds of coming to the U.S. to study and then opening a restaurant on her own wasn’t enough, Tuckawarut is currently overcoming another American odd — road construction. Right after she relocated to lower Wheaton Way, a major street project began in front of her place and ever since, her business has been limited due to construction.
she said. “For me, I’m the owner and business manager, and the head chef. It can be exhausting. But when I see the smiles on customers’ faces, and when they tell me the food is wonderful, it makes it all worth it.” And there’s her 20-yearold twin sisters back in Thailand. She’s working to be able to help them get through college. “In Thailand, that’s what family does,” she said. “When my parents could no longer care for me, my aunt took me in. It’s just in our nature.” As for Thai food, she wants people to know it’s not all spicy. “It’s very healthy and I guess I’d just ask those who haven’t, to give it a try,” she

The decor in her place has a native Thailand feel. “It’s hurt our business,” she said. “I’ve had to layoff employees because there wasn’t the business and they weren’t making enough tips.” Construction was supposed to be finished last month, but because it wasn’t completed before the cold weather, some of it won’t be done until next spring, she has been told. But she’s not about to give up. “Restaurant work is hard,”
said. “Any when you come here, tell us if it’s your first time. We’ll help you order.” The restaurant is open for lunch and dinner Tuesday through Sunday. She offers catering, gift certificates and has a meeting or party room that will hold up to 20. The address is 2313 Wheaton Way, Bremerton, or phone 360-627-8628.

Last payment comes with a scolding on how conference center is marketed By LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
Kitsap Public Facilities District Executive Director Mike Walton handed the City of Bremerton a check for $25,674 last week during a regular city council meeting, but not before telling the city that the facilities district is unhappy with the way the city is marketing the Kitsap Conference Center. “The Public Facilities District’s board is perplexed at the city’s failure to property promote and market the center,” Walton told the council. “The money we have contributed for that purpose was suppose to be distributed using the existing Visit Kitsap Peninsula (organization) for marketing efforts and none of that is being done. It’s baffling.” In October 2013, the Kitsap Public Facilities District helped to fund the expansion of the third floor of the

The city received $400,000 from the facilities district and, in addition, the city loaned itself $500,000 from its equipment rental and revolving fund. The 6,750 square feet of space has sat empty since 2004. The $1 million-worth of improvements to the third floor are now complete and city officials have said that they anticipate about $500,000 income every year from rental of the the additional space. Officials said with the additional space they can market the conference center to larger conventions. The city also asked the Public Facilities District for an additional money to help make the project pencil out. Walton said in total, the city received $442,000 for the expansion project. “Following the investment of more than $1 million in this project, it is
just baffling and confusing (that it is not being marketed),” Walton said. “Perhaps you should direct some of this money to that, to restore the confidence of the Public Facilities District in this venture.” City Council President Greg Wheeler did not engage with Walton at the meeting, nor did any other city officials. But later, Wheeler said he was concerned about Walton’s comments and planned to look into it. “I told the council members that I want to add it to our next work session for discussion,” Wheeler said. “I’m going to be talking with the president of the board at the facilities district and investigating this. I want to get some background and then have a discussion with the council.” Wheeler said it will be necessary for the council to look at the city’s economic development plan and see whether the kind of marketing that
Visit Kitsap Peninsula does fits in with that plan. “Does Visit Kitsap fit that model?” Wheeler asked. “We need to find out.” Walton said the city council voted to cut funding to Visit Kitsap Peninsula in 2013 when it decided how to spend its lodging tax income. “A last-minute objection took that out,” he said. “That money was suppose to go to Visit Kitsap so that they can achieve the goal of marketing Bremerton and the conference center.” Walton said he hopes something can be worked out so that the facilities district’s faith in the city’s ability to market the conference center is restored. As part of the original expansion deal, the city negotiated a $15-persquare-foot lease with Kitsap Transit, which owns the building, for third floor space. Kitsap Transit also agreed to forego four years worth of
speech and attacks the poor. “We consider this your war on the poor,” said Tahlure Niemy. “This ban restricts free speech and it takes police away from more important duties. We ask that you overturn (the ban) immediately.” Niemy also promised the council that he would be back at its next meeting on Dec. 3 and hopes to bring representatives of the American Civil Liberties Union. Another advocate for the poor, Joseph Rogers, asked the council to reconsider its actions. “Where is your compassion for the poor?” he asked. “Ask-
ing for money should not be a crime. It may be an eyesore but it is not a crime.” Bremerton resident Jane Rebelowski also asked the council to look again at the matter. “I appreciate what the police are trying to do, but running out of gas on the way to Port Townsend shouldn’t get you another fine that you probably can’t pay.” While council members didn’t respond during the comment portion of the meeting, they did weigh in at the end of the meeting. “I stand behind our action on panhandling,” said Mike Sulli-
van. “I still support the ordinance.” Council member Leslie Daugs agreed. “What we did was for the safety of everyone,” she said. “I’m glad we moved forward with it.” Wheeler said he expects advocates to continue to come to council meetings and speak up on the issue. “But until I hear that the council thinks we missed something the first time around, and that they want to look at it again, we won’t. And I don’t think that is what their intent is right now.”
increases in utility fees including water (up 8.5 percent) waste water (up 4 percent) and storm water (up 13 percent). The council was told that the average increase would be about $10.49 to the residential customer, up from $168 in 2014 to an average of $178 in 2015 per month. Although the council approved the increases the vote was not unanimous, with Leslie Daugs voting against all three measures and Mike Sullivan voting no on the utility increases. Member Roy Runyon wasn’t present during the vote. Council President Greg
Wheeler said he was surprised that council members voted against the increases because they hadn’t indicated any problems with increased rates during budget workshops.
“I had no idea that those votes were coming,” Wheeler said. “There were no concerns raised at the budget workshops. The raises are just allowing the city to keep up

on Wednesday. So following that, tables will be set up in the commons and everything will be ready by 4 p.m. And while students have been working on a food drive to support Bremerton Foodline, New Life Church has put together about 400 bags of groceries to send home with those who attend the dinner. “Throughout this, we’ve tried to be sensitive to people feelings,” Gelhaus said. “It’s hard to want to help, but not
want to identify anyone as needing help. We figured by having this be a school community dinner, it would just be a good time for all of us to be together and help each other.” After all, that’s what Mountain View Middle School is all about. “We’re a school and a learning environment ... but mostly we’re a community.” Gelhaus, who has been principal at Mountain View for five years, hopes to repeat the dinner next year. “It’s a warm, inviting thing and if it works, we’ll do it again,” she said.

rent in lieu of tenant improvements by the city. Kitsap Transit, too, kicked in $200,000, mostly to speed up the elevators. The expansion, paid for by three government entities, almost doubles the size of the conference center, which opened in 2004. The Kitsap Public Facilities District funded the original conference center a decade ago. Public Facilities Districts in Washington received a sale tax money as established by the State Legislature to help build and manage public projects. In Kitsap County, the facilities district chose not to own properties, but rather to work with other governmental entities to improve existing buildings. Mayor Patty Lent is on vacation and didn’t attend last week’s council meeting. She also was not available to comment on Walton’s criticism.

CKSD’s Thoughtexchange garners 99,000 responses By Chris TuCker ctucker@centralkitsapreporter.com
More than 99,000 “stars” have been assigned during Central Kitsap School District’s “Thoughtexchange” community feedback program. Thoughtexchange is an online process the district is using to collect public input to help guide the school board’s long-range plan-
ning. Using the process, people submitted their thoughts via a district web page and then later voted on their own ideas or voted for ideas submitted by other people by allocating seven stars to the submissions they liked best. District spokesman David Beil said thousands of people have taken part in Thoughtexchange — that’s much higher participation than the district gets with other
methods. “As you know, if we hold public
meetings we typically get about 30 people who engage. If we have online surveys on a typical topic we’ll see 300-400 people engage with us that way.” But by the end of October, Beil said 2,500 people had engaged with the district for phase one of the process, sharing 8,900 thoughts and opinions. Beil said in phase two — where participants assign their seven stars to the thoughts they like
best — about 3,800 people have assigned around 99,000 stars. Each participant can assign seven stars on several different pages. The second phase is over for now so the public cannot add more thoughts. The website is at http://centralkitsap.thoughtexchange.com/invitation. In the third and final phase, the district will share what it has learned from the program.

Kitsap Youth Project opens its doors in Silverdale By Chris TuCker ctucker@centralkitsapreporter.com
The walls are painted red-and-blue. A pool table, air hockey table and foosball table sit atop a striped brown carpet. Colored pencils, drawing paper and snacks lay atop a table. At one end of the room, a woman and girl play the board game “Sorry!” The cozy, den-like atmosphere is where the Silverdale United Methodist Church is hosting its new Kitsap Youth Project. “You can’t ever have too many safe places for kids to hang out,” said Grant Bosshardt, a towering, bald-headed man and one of three youth leaders, along with pastor’s assistant Lyndsey Rickabaugh and Brett Hall. The Youth Project is meant to provide children in grades 6-12 with a place to gather and have fun for an hour and a half on Thursdays. The project began on

Alaura Hall and Lynzie Kenny race each other to see who can bounce the most ping pong balls across a table and into plastic buckets held by adults on the other side. Oct. 23 and has only held a few of its gatherings so

HARD TO WRAP.
EASY TO GIVE.
p.m. The time there is struc-
tured: Sessions kick off with an ice-breaker activity, followed by singing, and then a time to talk. A lesson is also taught. At a recent meeting, youngsters Alaura Hall and Lynzie Kenny raced each other to see who could bounce the most ping pong balls across a table and into plastic buckets held by adults on the other side. “Yeah!” exclaimed a victorious Alaura after winning two of three rounds. Afterward they gathered to sing a song titled “Indescribable.” “From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea, Creation’s revealing Your majesty,” they sang. The song ended and the group began their chat time. “It’s incredible to us and humbling that you know every star in the sky by name,” Bosshardt said. Bosshardt’s lesson for the day was about risk and reward. He and his wife recently purchased a Harley Davidson motorcycle, he
said. It was a high-risk purchase for him since he wasn’t even sure he would like riding motorcycles. But as it turned out, he enjoyed it. Likewise, he said, people risk their own valuable time if they decide to help someone in need — someone who was hungry or who needed help paying their utility bills, for example. The biggest risk, he said, would be that if one didn’t help others then no one else might not help either. Bosshardt used a passage from the Bible to illustrate the lesson: “Do not withhold good from those who deserve it when it is within your power to help them.” “When we give we get to understand why Jesus said it is better to give than receive,” Bosshardt said. To learn more about the Kitsap Youth Project, contact pastor’s assistant Lyndsey Rickabaugh at 360-692-9813 or by email at lyndseyr@silverdale-umc. org. The church has a web page for the project at www. silverdale-umc.org.

admiral hosts illuminating performance Lightwire Theatre breaks from TV performances for Bremerton show By RICHARD D. Oxley Kitsap Week

The masks of Lightwire Theater create illuminating characters.
lightwire
Continued from page 2 The show features nutcracker soldiers, rats, gloworms, flowers, a Christmas tree and many other characters, all brought to life using modern, illuminating tech and performed in complete darkness. Lightwire Theater doesn’t use dialogue to progress its stories, rather, it’s entirely done with music and dancing. The stage is dark — darker than it normally would be for other productions. The wires cast light in shapes and patterns, which dancers then use to create the characters and stories. It’s like a mixture of ballet and Tron. The format works well for Carney, who with his wife, Eleanore, come from a dancing background. “My wife and I, as a career, are ballet dancers,”
Carney said. “We danced lots of Nutcrackers and Romeo and Juliets and classical ballet. I was always raised with classical ballet. The bonus of that was that I was not raised with words, I was raised with telling stories wordlessly.” He added, “If the emotion is too big to speak, you sing it, and if it’s too big to sing it, you dance it.” The wordless act breaks through borders and finds audiences with people who may not normally attend theater, Carney said. “We’ve performed all over the world because of that,” he said. “There’s no translation. We go to Hong Kong and we do the same show. Whether it’s Russia or Columbia or Germany.” While viewers may not have seen them in Hong Kong or Russia, they may recognize the company from TV.

performed in season 7 of “America’s Got Talent.” It’s tech-savvy performances brought them to the top four acts. “It was a good experience. We were nervous going into it,” Carney said. “They had found us on YouTube. They called us to be a part of it.” The theater company had mixed feelings about appearing on such a show that verged on reality TV, Carney said. At the time, Lightwire Theater was emerging as a successful family business. “But you can’t deny the exposure it would give,” Carney said. “ And a lot has come from ‘America’s Got Talent.’ We did a competition show in France because of ‘America’s Got Talent.’ We toured with

Lightwire Theater often uses animals for the characters of its shows. Sony to introduce a new phone in France.” Now, Lightwire Theater is back on TV, this time in a new competition-based show, “Fake Off,” airing on Tru TV. “This competition show has 10 acts in it,” Carney said. We just did our second performance on (Nov. 17).” The show airs every Monday until its conclusion. The show gives each artistic team a challenge that is based in pop culture. Each team then finds a way to interpret it in its own unique way. “It’s a bit more celebratory than sensational,” Carney said. “They delve into the artist a little bit more.” While Lightwire is
brightening up TV, Carney said that to truly see what the buzz is all about, viewers need to get to a theater. “The television side has been good to us and given us a wider viewership for our live shows which is where we shine,” he said. “When you see it live, it’s a whole other thing. If you’ve seen it on ‘America’s Got Talent’ and liked it there, when you see it live, it’s a whole other visual.” That visual, and the modern, tech-friendly methods of storytelling speaks to the aspiration of Lightwire Theater, Carney said, which is to introduce theater to audiences that aren’t inclined to go. “Because of its visual

components and its storytelling, we feel like we have an opportunity to get people back into the theater,” he said. “The theater is competing against DVD and blogging and video games and everything that takes you away from the human experience.” Carney said he enjoys taking crafts that are thousands of years old and reintroducing them. “Puppetry and dance and storytelling are old, but now it’s upgraded,” he said. “We bring it to today’s audience, and it seems as current as the new Apple computer, but it’s really based in ancient times. We really enjoy that aspect of doing what we do.”

Kitsap discusses ‘school-to-prison pipeline’ By RICHARD D. Oxley Kitsap Week

issue that affects our dayto-day,” said Tracy Flood of the Kitsap Council for Human Rights. “We are all humans first, and issues that affect our day-to-day are important. We deal with them in one way or another through tax dollars. Education is key.” Education is the focus — in more ways than one — of the annual Human Rights Conference in Kitsap on Dec. 5. The conference takes place each year, hosted by the Kitsap Council for Human Rights. The council’s role is to educate the public on various human rights issues. This year’s conference topic is the “school-toprison pipeline,” a term applied to a variety of issues that take young people out of the school system and into the criminal justice system. In short, the school-toprison pipeline could be anything that neglects a student’s needs, from learning disabilities to poverty or abuse. These needs can translate into disciplinary action or neglect. That, in turn, puts students on a path from school-to-prison. “Getting word out is so important,” Flood said. “There is this track that happens and it affects so many.” “It can be discipline systems, how you deal with students with disabilities or truancies,” she said. “It’s the way they are disciplined and miss out
HumAn RIgHts COnfeRenCe: tHe ‘sCHOOl-tO-pRIsOn pIpelIne’ What: A conference on the issue of the “school to prison” pipeline, with discussion panels. Keynote speaker: State Supreme Court Justice Debra L. Stephens. When: Dec. 5, 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Where: The Kitsap Conference Center, 100 Washington Ave., Bremerton. Cost: $65 adults, $50 youth younger than 18.
on day-to-day classroom activity, and that puts them on the fast track to the prison system.” The issue has picked up attention across the nation. Organizations such as the ACLU and the Justice Policy Center have taken up the cause. Policies such as zero-tolerance discipline, excessive police presence for minor school misconduct, or high-stakes testing have been cited as key problems in school structures. The thought is that by engaging in such practices and policies, certain populations of students — such as low income, minorities, students suffering from abuse, or those with learning disabilities — are pushed into systems that lead to the criminal justice system. Proponents of bringing awareness to the issue often promote that education, not incarceration, is a prime solution to the problem. Closer to Washington state, public school proponents have closely watched the McCleary decision, a state Supreme Court ruling that is holding the Legislature accountable for underfunding schools. This underfunding is viewed as one contributor to the school-to-prison pipeline
issue. “Funding is key,” Flood said. “Finances have affected schools.” Flood points to cuts in schools that take away time with teachers and cause classrooms to become overcrowded, making an unfavorable school environment. For example, Flood said, students used to have equal time with different departments. Now, because of funding cuts, some are not as present as others. “When I was in school, we had a PE teacher that was just as involved as the English teacher,” she said. “Now, it’s an option. It’s one of those things that was cut. It’s not as much of a priority as it used to be. It used to be Monday through Friday that you were in PE. Now, not so much.” Funding is so significant, that the keynote speaker this year is state Supreme Court Justice Debra L. Stephens. The court has ruled in recent years that the Legislature has been out of step with the state Constitution by underfunding public schools. The court is now holding the Legislature accountable. Other features of the conference will be expert and youth panels and vendors.

he Port Gamble Theater Company is taking a classic tale of a little girl, and not changing it at all. The theater company will perform “Heidi” on Dec. 5-21. The company is sticking “straight with the script,” theater company board president Scott Snively said. “Don’t really want to mess with this one.” The light-hearted, family-friendly tale of a girl raised by her grandfather fits in with the company’s focus on classic literature and drama, Snively said. As the last production of the year, it also fits well with Port Gamble’s Country Christmas theme. Snively said the production will interest younger generations, while offering those who remember variations of the tale — such as the 1937 Shirley Temple film — fond memories. “Heidi” is the story of a girl who goes to live with her aunt after her parents die. In turn, Heidi is taken to the mountains by her aunt so she can live with her grandfather. Her grandfather turns out to be a less-than-pleasant person. Eventually, Heidi’s infectious personality begins to change the grandfather from grumpy to kind. But that’s just part of Heidi’s tale the Port Gamble Theater Company will tell in December.

Birders are out for the count this season KITSAP BIRDING Kitsap Audubon members participate in a previous year’s count. Don Willott / Contributed
By GENE BULLOCK
O
n Dec. 20, some 60-80 birdwatchers will train their binoculars on bushes, trees and waterways all over Kitsap County and count every bird they see. The Christmas Bird Count is a 114-year-old tradition that involves tens of thousands of participants in more than 2,300 count circles throughout the Western Hemisphere. The Kitsap Audubon Society has been sponsoring Kitsap’s count for more than 40 years. Rain or shine, eight teams will scour the landscape for birds in assigned areas
Great blue herons are a familiar sight on Kitsap waterways. Here, they stand motionless like statues, waiting for prey to come close. Jay Wiggs / Contributed inside Kitsap Audubon’s designated 15-mile-diameter circle. Another team will start counting owls shortly after midnight. Many participants will opt to count birds in their own backyards as feederwatch volunteers. It’s a fun way for beginners to learn from experienced leaders and discover new places to bird. It’s also a friendly, but spirited competition to see
who can come up with the most species. The Kitsap count usually comes up with 112 to 115 species, and often produces a few surprises. Prior to 1900, commercial market hunters had hunted many bird species to the brink of extinction for their meat and feathers. Sportsmen also engaged in a holiday tradition known as the Christmas Side Hunt:
They would choose sides and compete to see which side could kill the most birds and small game in a single day. There was mounting concern among members of the fledgling Audubon Society about declining bird populations. Ornithologist Frank Chapman suggested a new holiday tradition — a Christmas Bird Census — that would count birds during the holidays rather
than shoot them. The tradition caught on, and today it is more popular than ever. It has become the longest-running citizen-science bird event in the world. The data collected over the last century allow researchers, conservation biologists, and other interested individuals to study the long-term health and status of bird populations across North America. When combined with other surveys such as the Breeding Bird Survey, it provides a picture of how the continent’s bird pop-
ulations have changed in time and space over the past hundred years. The data has helped scientists and policy-makers identify threats to birds and habitat, and promote broad awareness of the need to address them. While it is gratifying to know that the data you’re collecting benefits birds and science, the real reason for the popularity of Christmas Bird Counts is that they’re fun!

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Affordable white wines for the holidays A
s we head into the holiday season, we often find ourselves attending or hosting festive events. Thus, it’s always good to have several bottles of wine on hand. During the past couple of months, we have tasted many wines that qualify as good values, costing $15 or less. Today, we take a look at a few white wines. Most of these wines should be fairly easy to find at your favorite wine merchant. If not, contact the wineries directly. ■ Barnard Griffin 2013 Riesling, Columbia Valley, $10: A greeting of fruit salad aromas includes lychee, apricot and pineapple, backed by slate and lime. On the palate, the focus is on flavors of lime, pineapple and lemongrass, introduced by a bold blast of acidity that never slows down amid the residual sugar of 1 percent. In the finish are complexities of jasmine and minerality, allowing for suggested pairings with poultry and seafood. (11.8 percent alcohol) ■ Firesteed Cellars 2013 Pinot Noir Rosé, Willamette Valley, $14: Pretty aromas of Rainier cherry, ripe strawberry, rhubarb and peach also come with hints of cotton candy and a dusty country road. It’s presented in a bone-dry style with red raspberry, cherry/rhubarb compote and dried strawberry, all surrounded by refreshing acidity. That makes it remarkably versatile for food applications. (13.1 percent alcohol) ■ Vino La Monarcha 2013 Pinot Grigio, Columbia Valley, $15: Victor Palencia, raised in the Yakima Valley, is one of Washington’s finest young winemakers. This label for his Palencia Wine Co., in Walla Walla is as dazzling as it is affordable. It opens with tropical aromas of citrus and cardamom along with apricot, cotton candy, rose petal and spearmint. It’s a fun drink that’s loaded with white peach, tangerine and sweet herbs. (12.3 percent alcohol) ■ Daven Lore Winery 2013 Dry Riesling, Yakima Valley, $15: This is a glass brimming

with aromas of Golden Delicious apple, apricot, lime and slaty. The drink is light and refreshing with Granny Smith apple, Bosc pear and limeade. Pair this with spicy fare along the lines of Thai ginger beef. Mongolian beef also should work well. (13.2 percent alcohol) ■ Milbrandt Vineyards 2013 Evergreen Vineyard Traditions Riesling, Columbia Valley, $13: This wine launches with a nose of honeydew melon and ambrosia salad with peach, backed by lime, horehound and Aussie black licorice. The entry is crisp with flavors of limeade followed by a rich and broad midpalate with melon, backed by minerality and Mandarin orange acidity in the finish. Its residual sugar of 1.1 percent comes across dry, making for a mean-

dering story to tell and reminiscent of something from Alsace. (11.5 percent alcohol) ■ Airfield Estates 2012 Viognier, Yakima Valley, $15: Aromas of
pink grapefruit, cotton candy, orange Circus Peanut candy and freshcut celery lead into a striking structure of Asian pear, quince, honeydew melon and
lime. Suggested pairings include pasta, pork, salmon and stir-fry. (14.5 percent alcohol) ■ Mercer Estates 2013 Sauvignon Blanc, Yakima Valley, $13: The nose is focused on dusty Granny Smith apple, fresh mint and rosewater. On the pour, it’s racy and steely from start to finish with gooseberry, lime juice and wet stone, making for a dry and delicious drink that’s available in more than 40 states. (13.3

percent alcohol) ■ Ste. Chapelle 2012 Chardonnay, Snake River Valley, $12: A whiff of this delicious wine offers aromas of cotton candy, pear, honeydew melon, ghee and candy corn. On the pour, the oak treatment brings a rich and tropical entry of fresh pineapple, mango and papaya with butter on the midpalate. And yet, refreshing acidity continues to pulse through the wine. Suggested pairings range from grilled seafood, roast chicken, mild cheeses and creamy pasta. (13.9 percent alcohol) — www.greatnorthwestwine.com.
