TAKING THE PLUNGE

Decade of city service ends Outspoken Bill Knobloch leaves council, but remains involved RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer

Willie Wenzlau/For the Review

As has been the tradition for 10 years, about 200 people took a Polar Bear Plunge at noon last Sunday at the end of Lytle Road off Pleasant Beach Drive. Fortunately, the day was mild for a New Years Day, though the water was as cold as usual.

Bill Knobloch eased back in his chair early Wednesday night, eager to witness his favorite show unravel.

While others across Bainbridge Island were switching on their television set to engage the usual prime-time programming, Knobloch was watching the weekly Bainbridge City Council meeting. It was the first time in 10 years that he wasn’t watching it from the dais.

When Knobloch stepped down from council at the end of December, he left

In turn, he has garnered significant praise and criticism from the island’s often divided citizens.

“Bill has never questioned what his job was or what he was elected to do – stand up for the citizens of Bainbridge Island,” said SEE KNOBLOCH, A3

Islanders grieve over loss of beloved judge Judge Ted Spearman died Tuesday after suffering brain aneurysm.

By DENNIS ANSTINE Staff Writer

The death of Kitsap County Superior Court Judge Ted Spearman on Tuesday reverberated around the county and Bainbridge Island as his peers, friends and neighbors expressed their respect and love for the man.

Theodore “Ted” Spearman, 64, a county judge for seven years and a resident of Bainbridge since 1983, died Tuesday night due to complications of a brain aneurysm.

Plans for a memorial service are pending, according to son-in-law Jason Weaver of Sonoma County, Calif.

Spearman, perhaps one of the most well-respected judges in the state according to many of his judicial peers, had a long history as a civil rights attorney and champion.

He was appointed as the first black man on the Kitsap County bench in 2004 by then-Gov. Gary Locke and was re-elected twice. He was up for election this year, but resigned his post on Dec. 23 while hospitalized.

Respect and warmth were the words most used by those describing the man after his death was announced.

“It’s just a great loss for all of us who knew him,”

said Andrew Becker, a Port Orchard attorney who had become a close friend over the last 20 years. “He was a total people person with a tremendous capacity to appreciate and understand his fellow human beings.

And he had this tremendous intellect. But what really set him apart was the devotion and love to his family and the bench.”

Becker remembers speaking at Spearman’s “coronation,” when he was swornin as a judge in 2004.

“As my speech was winding down about all of his qualities, I said, ‘And now at long last we have a vegetarian from Bainbridge Island on the Superior Court.’ He got a big kick out of that.

Actually, he was a vegan.”

One of Spearman’s highest points came in 2009 when

he was chosen to give the keynote address at the 15th annual Martin Luther King Jr. celebration at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds.

To add to the drama, it was on the eve of the inauguration of President Barack Obama. As he often did, Judge Spearman spoke of the need to nurture our children with love and dedication.

“Parents should encourage and empower their children to live their dreams,” he said. “Put children first because they are our pieces of art and they can be masterpieces.”

Spearman also stood up for diversity at home, including during 1998 when the Bainbridge City Council was considering an ordinance that could have led to the end of liveaboard resi-

Repeatedly, he urged the council to honor the need to

preserve and honor diversity through the liveaboard community. He urged the council to treasure diversity SEE SPEARMAN, A4

around the island Memorial tree at library vandalized A small tree in the Bainbridge Library’s garden was cut down and stolen during the week leading up to Christmas.

The tree was a memorial tree dedicated to a local family and was planted just one year ago.

Members of the volunteer group Friday Tidy, who oversee landscaping for the library, noticed the tree’s remaining stump as they were performing maintenance on the morning of Dec. 23. The group intends to plant another tree in its place.

The marks on the stump show that it was cut down using a saw, making a clean cut, and not hacked away.

The volunteer group visit the library each Friday, so the incident could have occurred anytime between Dec. 16 and Dec. 23.

DUI patrols arrest 144 during holiday season The results of the recent Holiday DUI enforcement

campaign conducted in Kitsap County from Nov. 24, 2011, through Jan. 2, 2012 included a large increase over last year’s event.

In Kitsap County, 144 motorists were stopped and arrested for driving under the influence (DUI).

Statewide, law enforcement officers arrested 3,812 drivers for DUI. Last year during the same time period, officers in Kitsap County on routine and extra patrols arrested 83 people for DUI. Bainbridge Island and other police departments in the county, the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office and the Washington State Patrol participated in the extra emphasis patrols, with the support of the Kitsap County Traffic Safety Task Force.

The patrols were funded by a grant from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission.

During 2010, drinking drivers killed 188 people, representing more than 40 percent of the 458 people who died on Washington’s roadways.

Mary Gleysteen, who worked at Eagle Harbor Book Company for half of its 40 years, has retired from bookselling.

“There is no doubt that Mary Gleysteen is the best bookseller ever to walk the boards of our store, and we will miss her terribly,” John Wilson wrote on behalf of the staff in the store’s December newsletter.

Gleysteen’s influence was also recounted in “Saluting A Veteran Bookseller” by Northwest Book Sellers’ Brian Juenemann, marketing director for the Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association (www.nwbooklovers.org).

A new council member

CONTINUED FROM A1

former council member Debbie Vann, who served with Knobloch early on.

“He was elected and then re-elected twice because that is what he stands for.”

During his time on council he has navigated a number of divisive local issues, as well as philosophies on how city government should run. Despite this, Knobloch finds solace in the core philosophy that he says guided him throughout his time on council.

“I feel that I was able to deliver the message that council members have a responsibility to their community and not the city,” Knobloch said. “My basic philosophy about public service is that I am there to serve the citizens and not the city. It’s that simple.”

Now Knobloch feels that it is time to divert more of his attention toward his family — he has five children and 15 grandchildren — and spend more time with his wife.

“My husband is a good man with a moral compass,” said Liz Knobloch.

Knobloch grew up in New York and attended Fordham University in the Bronx before being drafted into the U.S. Navy during the Vietnam war. He became a pilot, eventually a squadron commander, and flew over the North Pole twice. After leaving the Navy, he transferred his skills over to the civilian world as an airline pilot.

He spent his career flying for Pacific Southwest Airlines (later purchased by US Airways) and journeyed to a number of domestic and international destinations. At one point his co-pilot was Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, later known as the pilot who landed US Airways flight 1549 in the Hudson River.

“It was a real pleasure to fly with Bill Knobloch,” Sullenberger said. “Bill was a true professional who always had a smile on his face. He treated people with respect, and I’m not surprised that he chose to enter public service.”

In 1988, Knobloch retired to Bainbridge Island with his wife, became involved locally and watched his family grow.

Willie Wenzlau/For the Review

Bill Knobloch sits at the desk in his home office. It has been the center of his work as a council member over the past ten years.

“Bainbridge is a very special, one-of-a-kind community and I say that with confidence due to my traveling,” Knobloch said. “We could have lived anywhere in the U.S. and we chose Bainbridge.”

After becoming involved in a neighborhood land-use issue, he earned the respect of his neighbors. Knobloch recalls being asked to a

neighborhood meeting organized by his friend Barbara Kowalski. When he entered a room full of community members, he was asked if he would run for city council.

“I said ‘OK,’ and then everyone left.” Knobloch said. “I then went up in my first election against all odds and won.”

His council service began in January 2001.

Community first At one end of Knobloch’s home is his realm — his office. The walls bear recognitions from the Navy and paintings of aircraft. His desk is established at the center of the room. He keeps a file with recognitions he has received during his time on council — he is the only council member to have been given a leadership award from the

Association of Washington Cities. He has its own separate phone line dedicated to the community — it rings often.

This is his operation room during the last 10 years, answering phone calls and writing emails. He became a hands-on council member.

“It starts early in the morning, people call, and I advise them what to do and at times I would escort them in to see the mayor, or the city administrator, or a department head, and that’s where the mayor (Darlene Kordonowy) and I first butted heads,” Knobloch said.

“She said, ‘I’m in charge of this city hall and you don’t go talking to employees without talking to me first.’

And I said, ‘I’m sorry, that’s not how it works. I am their representative as an elected official.’”

The city’s finances was one topic he consistently raised issues with, and again clashed with his colleagues — whether the topic was the Winslow Way project or reviewing annual budgets.

with overhead cost and does not fit the size of our revenue base,” Knobloch said. “The only way you are going to be able to have a sustainable government is to cut the cost of government and reduce the size of government, which has recently been going on only because the city has no money to pay salaries.”

In 2003, Knobloch drafted the city’s first ethics ordinance.

“There was strong opposition to it from the mayor and city administrator, so strong that it was put on hold,” Vann said. “But Bill never wavered from his passion to have an ethics board for our city elected (officials), staff and commissions.”

Council tensions From the change of the city’s government to the Winslow Way project, Knobloch has been outspoken on a number of heated issues, coming across abrasive at times. During his time on council he maintained a small-city approach to governing, making no secret of his desire to have less city staff and costs, setting him at odds with the other council members.

In recent years, Knobloch commonly and publicly spoke of “the four,” referring to four members on coun-

cil whom he felt voted in October where Scales offered unison, effectively drawing a stack of printed emails from a line down the council and Knobloch’s personal account. creating significant tension.

Not entirely gone During the campaigns to fill council seats leading up to his exit, Knobloch publicly endorsed four candidates — three of which won. He perceives the election as the community sending a message to the council.

“I am very optimistic about our future on the island,” he said. “We have a new council that is going to change the present dynamic and work with people – they’ll act in the best interest of the community, which is learning that it is most important to get to know your candidates and what their views are...this community is very sophisticated, not only intellectually but politically, and for any council member not to understand that is doomed to failure. If you have your own personal agenda, and support the city administration, you’ll never survive.”

While his days on council are over, Knobloch doesn’t plan on quitting his activities of public service. His community phone line remains active, and he still answers it.

“I’ll stay involved,” Knobloch said. “What happens is that you realize you’re an asset for certain areas and you have a responsibility to help. Why would you walk away and say, ‘I’m not going to talk to you anymore’”?

Council will consider plastic bag ordinance RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer

The council addressed the issue of banning plastic bags Wednesday, and heard a number of public comments in support of the ban that were greeted by community applause.

According to Councilor Kirsten Hytopoulos, an initiative to ban plastic bags on Bainbridge Island has been discussed for at least a year, but little progress has been made toward any plan.

The city joined a number of municipalities along the West coast, including Portland and San Francisco, that have banned plastic bags in one form or another.

Bainbridge Island could be next.

Within the last year the cities of Mukilteo, Bellingham and Seattle have all passed bans on plastic bags of their own. Edmonds initiated a plastic bag ban in 2010.

There currently is no draft of an ordinance to ban plastic bags on the island.

Hytopoulos hadn’t planned on addressing a ban yet, but with recent talk in the community and press over the issue, she brought it up at the first council meeting of the year.

“Our goal is to eliminate plastic as much as we can and find alternatives,”

Hytopoulos said. “We are talking about an item that is used to transport things from the grocery store, sometimes just five or 10 minutes, to our house.”

Hytopoulos said that some people use plastic bags for further uses such as picking up dog waste, but said that generally the majority of bags end up in the trash.

Bainbridge Island’s ban would be similar to the recently passed plastic bag ban in Seattle, Hytopoulos said. The thin plastic bags used at grocery store check out stands would be banned, and paper bags would be offered at a five cent fee.

Reusable bags would be encouraged.

So far, Town & Country Market on Winslow Way supports the notion of banning plastic bags, Hytopoulos said.

Katrina Rosen, field director of the state-wide environmental advocacy group Environment Washington, addressed the council on the matter during Wednesday’s meeting, commending the council for considering the ban.

“Plastic bags pose a serious threat to Puget Sound and the wildlife in it,” Rosen said. “We saw the worst effects of this last year when we saw a beached whale in

Seattle with 20 plastic bags in its stomach.”

Less than 6 percent of plastic bags are recycled, according to reports from Environment Washington.

The group further notes a number of other facts including how researchers from the University of Washington-Tacoma ran a study on the water in Puget Sound which found plastic pollution in every sample they took.

Plastic is being consumed by various wildlife, including gulls and whales. Plastic bags are also washing up on a number of shores around Puget Sound, including the beaches of Orcas Island where last year volunteers picked up more than 10,000 pieces of micro-plastic.

Hytopoulos would like to take time to draft an ordinance for council to consider. The issue will be further addressed at the Feb. 1 council meeting.

“The fact is we have alternatives, we have reusable bags and this is happening all over the world,” Hytopoulos said. “To me it’s a step that we can take… in reality we probably use on this island somewhere in the vicinity of 5 to 7 million bags a year, so consider that as having an incredible impact.”

SPeaRman CONTINUED FROM A1

and care for different ways of life. Eventually, the ordinance was shelved and Eagle Harbor’s liveaboard community still exists.

Court of Appeals Judge J. Robin Hunt had become a close friend with the Spearman family over the last 10 years.

“I had trouble this morning,” she said on Wednesday.

“We’ll all miss him. He had this real passion for the law and his life. He was so dedicated to everything he did.

And he was such a wonderful friend.

Spearman grew up in Yakima with an adoptive family, graduated from Stanford and earned his law degree from the University of Michigan Law School in 1983.

He is survived by his wife, Marie, daughter Simone Spearman, son-in-law Jason Weaver and granddaughter

Saja Spearman Weaver.

Justice Charlie Wiggins

“As a judge, he went of his way to be very gracious and always gave e people the opportunity to say their peace. He never blew people off or failed to listen to what they had to say. An excellent judge and even greater person.”

IN OUR OPINION

Park too long these days and you’ll really pay for it

I

n an effort to increase revenue, the City Council decided last year to nearly double the fee for parking ticket violations to $50 throughout the city. The policy-makers also increased the time limit in some parts of Winslow from two to three hours, and later in the year added a second parking enforcement officer.

Predictably, revenue from parking tickets has increased by more than 50 percent since the new officer was hired, and that’s likely to increase even more since, with two officers working the island, parking enforcement now occurs seven days a week.

There’s been a lot of grumbling and complaints, some from ticketed citizens and also some business owners who think the old two-hour limit and lower ticket fee was a better way to go. And there also seems to be an increased number of violations around the ferry terminal, especially involving disabled parking spaces.

The parking police are also branching out in areas that they normally have ignored, including the Rolling Bay Service Center.

People are receiving tickets, for example, when they park on the wrong side (pointed toward oncoming traffic) around Bay Hay & Feed and the Bainbridge Island Municipal Court.

While these actions strike some people as being contrary to the rural lifestyle enjoyed on the island, such increased diligence is not unusual these days as many cities see funds derived from parking violations as needed revenue. However, the addition of an employee certainly will cut into that increase.

Still, if you don’t break the law you won’t be ticketed. That’s the best way to avoid the extra cost.

LETTERS Local police

Recent negative publicity about the Seattle Police Department provides an opportunity to circulate a positive comment about Bainbridge Police.

After many years as a Bainbridge resident, in all my dealings with BIPD they have conducted their duties in a professional and courteous manner.

Many of us civilians underestimate how difficult it must be to work in such a job where, at any moment, you could be dealing with an unstable or life-threatening situation.

The overall quality of the service we receive is deserving of our support, and a salute.

It is tragic, given the state of our environment, that anyone – especially coastal community residents – would be opposed to this attempt to help curb the fouling of our oceans.

Only those who have no access to news could be ignorant of what plastic bags are doing to the health of our waters and the seafood we consume.

As one who has helped clean up areas that feed into our waters, I and countless others can attest to the fact that too many bags pollute our ocean.

Given the lack of national and state action, let us hope Bainbridge Island passes a ban on plastic grocery bags. Keeping millions of these bags used by island residents annually out of circulation is a start no matter how small in reducing the waste of resources and preventing totally unnecessary pollution.

Tragic that any islanders Will commuters protest would oppose a ban or simply lose weight?

Some locals have expressed their displeasure on website comments and in widely distributed emails about the potential of a plastic bag ban on Bainbridge Island.

They argue that there would be no way to dispose of dog droppings, groceries would arrive home drenched and they would suffer other grievous inconveniences. One emailer suggests that it should be our right to litter and pollute if we so choose (?).

For those of us who have lived very comfortably using reusable grocery bags and making do with bread bags for a multitude of uses (including dog duty), these arguments seem silly and the last argument, just plain strange.

It was only a matter of opportunity but you knew it was coming. Having licked the Taliban by its armed escort craft and sniffing dogs for Elliott Bay ferries, the U.S. Coast Guard is implementing another New Years’ resolution. It is aimed at our fat commuters during rush hours, and not just the ones who always take the empty seat on each side of them.

The New York Times reported on Jan. 2 that our commuters’ expanding waist and bulk sizes have caused the passenger capacity of jumbo ferry Wenatchee and others to be lowered from 2,000 to 1,700 passengers.

This augers a similar resolution years ago when it decided its regu-

lated boats were overloaded by more commuters than life jackets put aboard. Angry boarders got turned back or threatened by fines as they tried to rush terminal guards using their hand counters to rejoin usual bridge partners.

It helped to have many legal advocates in line – the state’s Lt. Governor, a resident U.S. senator or a congressman. But times have changed. The aggressive ways of airport customs helped change it.

This latest ferry development ranks right up with our more dubious, wellmeant 2012 wishes. Close beside the city’s current $450 fine per island driver who drop off passengers in the traditional kiss-and-ride zone at the ferry terminal, competing with periodic handicap users. Or the sWashington State Patrol’s short-lived decision a while back to cite all commuter jay-walkers trying to catch or exit a ferry along with 2,000 others.

Short of us pushing away from the table more during The Long Dark to get within USCG optimum average male weight of 194 pounds and female average of 164 pounds (without clothing), commuters, there are these humane alternatives: 1. Get rid of a few brawny crew members in favor of self-help boat berthings; 2. Charge the gym hunks, more fullsome and just plain bulkies among passengers $2 extra per trip for fuel; 3. Except nearer Christmas or after a Nordstrom half-yearly sale, pass impromptu scale checks before boarding; 4. If more than just robust, you have to walk the top decks at least 12 rounds during commutes, followed by a slimmed-down WSF docent.

ancient opossums deserve respect, not fear ISLAND WILDLIFE

By KOL MEDINA

This past Dec. 10, West Sound Wildlife surpassed a dubious milestone when we admitted our 1,000th patient of the year. Never before has West Sound Wildlife taken in 1,000 patients or more in a year.

I call this a dubious milestone because each one of these patients is a suffering wild animal. While we’d prefer that no animals need our help, we are privileged to have the ability to give these animals a second chance at life.

Our 1,000th patient was a Virginia opossum. These misunderstood animals are actually quite fascinating. Because they are shy nocturnal mammals, you’ve probably only seen one on television or dead on the side of the road.

While the adult opossums might not be as attractive as Brad Pitt, baby opossums are amazingly cute. You can see photos of some on our website at www. westsoundwildlife.org.

Babies are a big part of a female opossum’s life. In our area, female opossums can expect the pleasure of two litters each year. And these litters are quite a handful, or should I say “pocketful,” because the babies spend part of their lives in a pouch.

That’s right – the Virginia opossum is a marsupial, the only marsupial in North America.

Thirteen days after insemination, a mother opossum will give birth to as many as 20 blind, naked

and deaf babies, each the size of a small bean.

The babies must then instinctually wriggle their way up their mom and into her pouch where they will find 13 nipples. If you’re the 14th baby to arrive in the pouch, you are out of luck. Ouch.

After finding a nipple, the babies latch on and stay in the pouch attached to that nipple for two to three months.

When they emerge from the pouch, they ride on mom’s back for another month or so. What could be more fun for a new mother than 13 squirmy babies pulling your hair all day?

One reason opossums have so many babies is because they have short lifespans, living only two years on average.

Opossums are considered by some to be living fossils, with precursors to the Virginia opossum having lived as long as 140 million years ago, long before the height of the dinosaurs. The Virginia opossum itself, or a close ancestor, was living in North America as long as

Despite a rather imposing appearance, Virginia opossums generally do all they can to avoid predators, including humans and their pets.

20 or 30 million years ago.

They’ve managed to prosper as long as they have largely because they are highly adaptable omnivores. They eat just about anything, including seeds, greens, small rodents, insects, carrion, and slugs. Yes, they eat slugs.

In fact, opossums and some waterfowl are the only animals that eat slugs in our area. So if you’re a gardener, you should do

everything you can to encourage opossums to live in your yard.

There is no reason to fear opossums. They will not attack humans or our pets (unless a human or pet attacks them first). Rather, if they see a human or a predator (like a domestic pet), they will do everything they can to quietly and secretly slip away.

If they are cornered, they do in fact “play dead.” This is an invol-

untary fear response that causes them to basically go into a coma that can last for up to four hours and during which time they will froth at the mouth and ooze a nasty smelling, green-colored substance from their rear-end.

And they do not generally carry diseases that can transmit to humans or, except for horses, to our domestic pets.

In fact, opossums are possibly immune to rabies; they are certainly much less susceptible to rabies than humans are. Also, opossums have been proven to be immune to toxic snake bites, including rattlesnake and pit viper bites.

A final interesting fact is that they have what amounts to thumbs on their back feet.

At West Sound Wildlife, we are great admirers of opossums, including patient 1,000, who is still recovering in our hospital.

They are fascinating animals with dignified personalities that have become an important part of our local environment.

Rather than fear them, I hope that you will appreciate their role in our environment and admire their oddities.

If you’d like any more information about opossums or if you need help resolving a conflict you’re having with an opossum, please give us a call at 855-9057.

Trident resisters found guilty in Kitsap Court

Citizens protest nuclear stockpile at Bangor base.

PORT ORCHARD — Eleven nuclear resisters, members of Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action, appeared in Kitsap County District Court this week in two separate trials for their acts of civil resistance to the Trident nuclear weapons system, according to a release by the Ground Zero Center.

Anne Hall, Betsy Lamb, Brenda McMillen and Tom Rogers, a former submarine commander turned antinuclear protester who lives in Poulsbo, were arrested for blocking the main entrance

They were charged with being “pedestrians in the roadway,” a traffic infraction.

The four moved a 44-foot long inflatable Trident II D-5 missile replica onto the roadway in an attempt to symbolically close the base as a statement against the U.S. government’s continued deployment of the first strike nuclear weapons system.

The Trident submarine base at Bangor contains the largest concentration of operational nuclear weapons, according to Leonard Eiger, media coordinator for the Ground Zero Center.

He also ruled that the group could show a video of the action, and that they could consolidate their cases. In addition, he implied that he would make the same rulings for the seven defendants from the May 7 action.

“I spent my adult life as a submarine officer, mostly during the Cold War,” Poulsbo resident Tom Rogers wrote in his statement to be read in court. “I commanded an attack submarine for three years during the final years of the Soviet Union.

I’ve been responsible for nuclear weapons. The time to end our country’s national

security strategy based on the threat of nuclear annihilation is long overdue. It’s dangerous, militarily impractical, and unaffordable.”

The purpose of the nonviolent action was to raise awareness of the dangers of nuclear weapons and U.S. government’s continuing reliance on them, and the critical importance of working towards a nuclear weapons-free world, according to the release.

carving reflects Inupiaq’s dawn

By CONNIE MEARS Staff Writer

Feeling the effects of winter’s dark days? Be glad you’re not Inupiaq. In Barrow, Alaska, the sun sets around Nov. 18 and doesn’t return until Jan. 23. As the world’s most northern aboriginal people, the Inupiaq sustained themselves for centuries through the dark, frozen winters by gathering to celebrate the dawn, the return of the light, with a Messenger Feast.

During the celebration, or “Kivgiq” in Inupiaq, the people would dance, feast, tell stories, assess the year’s hunt and fend off isolation. The tradition was integral to village life until it was banned in the early 20th century.

“Traditional religion has been lost,” said Inupiaq carver Lawrence Ahvakana, who lived in Barrow, Alaska, as a young boy.

The Feast was revived in 1988 as a means of cultural revitalization, a dawn after a dark time.

“They brought back the dances that were considered taboo or demonic,” Ahvakana said.

“They weren’t. They were celebrations.”

Ahvakana, who works with a variety of materials including wood, stone, glass, and bronze, will show two dozen pieces inspired by his Inupiaq roots at Bainbridge Arts and Crafts this month.

Depth, quality give BHS boys a shot at 3A title McCarthys lead Spartans as they challenge Mercer Island.

By WILLIE WENZLAU For the Review

The Bainbridge High boys swim and dive team is looking strong as the Spartans begin to approach their 2012 championship season.

This year’s team has seen a great deal of success in dual meets against both Metro and non-Metro league teams.

Head coach Kaycee Taylor regards this year’s team as the best he has seen in years, and is pleased with the amount of depth that his team of 37 swimmers has developed.

“It’s an exciting year for us … we are going to have a lot of seniors graduating,” said Taylor.

Taylor attributes the team’s increased depth to the number of athletes that have began swimming yearround. He has observed a significantly higher level of fitness in the boys that swim on both the club and high school teams.

Bainbridge has historically had teams that are strongest in the long-distance events, and this year is no exception.

“We have a lot of kids who are distance kids. Both of the McCarthy (Andrew and Todd) boys can swim the longer events really well, it’s what we’re known for,” said Taylor.

According to coach Taylor the team’s aptitude for longer races has proven

to be both a strength and weakness for the Spartans.

The team has many individuals who are competitors in the longer events, which has often resulted in Bainbridge swimmers competing against their teammates and a lower level of competitiveness in the quick events.

Taylor would like to see the Spartans diversify and develop strength in as many areas as possible as they continue to grow during the remainder of the season and in years to come.

Among the large group of seniors on the Bainbridge team are captains Andrew McCarthy, Colin Chupik and Jared Bell.

The Spartans have several swimmers with the top times in 3A this year, led by See SwImmIng, a12

• Chupik is third in the 100 free.

• Spencer Alpaugh has the second-best time among 3A swimmers in the 200 individual medley.

In the Metro League, Bainbridge is the only team that is not coed, with the girls’ team competing in fall.

On Dec. 9, the Spartans swam against Bishop Blanchet, losing the meet 115-207. However, if the meet were scored without the girls’ results, Bainbridge would have won the meet 115-55.

Although it is difficult for Bainbridge to win a meet against a coed team, when solely matched up against the opponent’s boys team the results often favor the Spartans.

Taylor has seen tremendous leadership in the way

Little League meeting on Jan. 12 Bainbridge Island Little League will hold an upper division information event on Thursday, Jan. 12 from 6:30-8 p.m. at the Woodward Middle School Commons.

that these boys run practice and motivate their teammates. He also is aware of the many unseen leaders that can be found at each level of ability, swimmers who aspire to become future captains themselves.

Of the 37 swimmers, many have already qualified for the state championship meet, which will be held at the King County Aquatic Center in Federal Way on Feb. 17-18.

With important meets this month against some of the teams that will be Bainbridge’s biggest competitors at the state meet, Taylor hopes to see his team continue to bring their times down and qualify as many people and in as many events as possible.

The Spartan were scheduled to compete Thursday in a dual meet against Mercer Island, the Class 3A state champions in 2011. They will have a quick turnaround Friday, facing Eastside Catholic with swimmers hitting the BHS pool at 3 p.m.

They’ll be back in the home pool on Friday, Jan. 13 against Lakeside, and at Liberty on Tuesday, Jan. 17.

Taylor would like to see his 200-yard freestyle relay team earn a state-qualifying time at one of these meets against two of the toughest teams.

Last year the Bainbridge team took fifth place at the state tournament, and this year Taylor and his swimmers are aiming to do even better.

The purpose is to help potential players who want to play beyond 12 years old and their parents understand the new level of play BILL will offer in baseball and softball.

Local brewery to open in may at coppertop

By DENNIS ANSTINE Staff Writer

At age 29, it wasn’t difficult for island native Russell Everett to choose which one of his two job skills – microbrewing and the law – to follow after passing the Washington State Bar. “These days,” he said, “only one of them makes money so it wasn’t a difficult decision. Plus, I’ve been home-brewing for nine years and I know what I’m doing.”

Everett, whose focus in law school was alcoholic beverage regulations, plans to open the Bainbridge Island Brewing Co. LLC in May at a 3,000-square-foot space at the Sportsman Park Business Complex.

He is currently in the permit and license process, which involves city, state and federal authorities.

“It’s exhaustive, but it’s not as bad as it used to be with the feds,” he said.

“You used to have to have the license before you had permission to build or renovate. It’s more relaxed now though it’s still difficult.”

Everett has rented the space and will soon begin renovating it in preparation for setting up his small brewery and taproom bar, which will serve five staples and several seasonal beers. The goal is to brew about 1,000 barrels a year, providing beer on tap at the brewery, and kegs

willie wenzlau/For the Review

Right now, Russell Everett prefers owning a microbrewery than practicing law. for parties and bars on the island and elsewhere.

The core will include: • A koelsch German-style pilsener that’s a malty, hot-weather ale; • An English brown ale that has a carmel/chocolate taste and is just under 4 percent alcohol • A classic Northwest pale ale; • An IPA that’s hoppy and will be around 6.5 percent alcohol; • And a stout.

“My mother (Julie Everett) is a huge fan of stouts and I’d get grief if I didn’t have a good one,” he said.

“Besides, it’s the backbone of any microbrewery.”

ISLAND BUSINESS BRIEFINg Metro Market opens doors at Coppertop The catering and café business, Metro Market, opened its doors to lunch customers on Friday, Jan. 6 at its new location in Sportsman Park Business Complex.

The business, owned by Robert

Freitag and Jason Divinney, is located at 9720 Coppertop Loop, Suite 101. They moved from its industrial park location off Miller Road, opening the catering service in December.

The café will be open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., serving sandwiches, soups, salads and special takeout items. There will

A large majority of the malted barley and hops ingredients for his beer will come from Washington and British Columbia fields, and he also plans to have experimental seasonal beers.

“I prefer a fine-dining approach with the seasonal brewing,” he said.

“I plan to make a fall Belgian golden ale with chanterelle mushrooms that I harvest myself out of the forest and then test the recipe at home. I can’t say I’m looking forward to cleaning 60 pounds of mushrooms, however.

We’ll see how that goes.”

Everett said he will start as his own brewmaster, but may hire

seating for about 18 people inside and additional seating outdoors on picnic tables and grassy area that serves others businesses in the complex.

someone for the job if he needs to spend more time on the business end of enterprise.

“This is the first time I’ve started a business so I’ve got a lot of lessons to learn as a small entrepreneur,” he said. “But I’m teaming up with my dad (Chuck Everett), though he’s taking a backseat as we go forward.”

Everett thinks it’s a good time to start a microbrewery on Bainbridge.

“Back in the ’90s there were lots of breweries but a lot of them were started by business people who didn’t know much about brewing and a lot of them went bust,” he said. “Things calmed down for eight to 10 years and it’s now booming again, though this time they’re being run by people who know about beer.”

The boom certainly has struck Poulsbo, where four breweries opened tasting rooms in 2011, including Sound Brewery, which is about the size Everett wants Bainbridge Island Brewing to become. The other three – Valholl Brewing, Slippery Pig Brewery and Battenkill Brewing – are more of the nano-brewery category.

“There are itty-bitty breweries cropping up everywhere in Washington right now,” Everett said.

“The question is whether they can survive. We decided to save our

backs and knees with the same effort brewing 10 times more than nanos, which brew maybe three barrels a week compared to us doing 10-barrel batches.”

Bainbridge has had a couple of breweries come and go, including Thomas Kemper Brewing. It was founded here in 1985, started making soft drinks in 1990, moved to Poulsbo in 1992 and was purchased

by Hart Brewing before it changed its name to Pyramid Breweries in 1996.

Sound Brewery & Smokehouse opened in The Pavilion in 1996 but only lasted a year.

Everett knows he’s taking a chance, “but I think the island’s ready for it.”

He searched for a suitable location on Winslow Way, but the cost for the amount of space required for the brewery made the cost prohibitive.

“We’d love to be in Winslow near the ferry, but the reality is we have industrial equipment and paying for retail space just was too much,” he said. “We feel that people will find us. The Coppertop area is easily accessible and is beginning to take off, with a distillery (Bainbridge Organic Distillery), a small lunch and catering business (Metro Market) and Storyville Coffee nearby.”

Island Suites was honored with the hotel chain’s M.K. Guertin Award for service and quality at the annual North American Convention held last month in Orlando, Fla. The award is given to Best Western properties that represent the vision of the chain’s founder.

Besides commitment to the brand, the recipient must also meet design and customer care standards and other member-

ship requirements in order to qualify.

The local Best Western Plus is located at 350 High School Road.

It features 51 rooms, a fitness and business center, and free family passes to the Bainbridge Island Aquatics Center.

FYI POLICE BLOTTER Bainbridge Police reported the following incidents: Dec. 27 1:57 a.m. Police responded to a physical dispute between a woman and a man in a wheelchair that broke out at a Winslow residence.

According to the man, the two argued over volume levels of the television and the computer that each was using. The man turned up his computer to drown out the TV, and the woman ripped the cords off the computer’s speakers.

She then threw spinach dip at the man before throwing his computer aside and hitting him on the face.

The man tried to defended himself and took the glasses off the woman’s face in the process, before she pushed him over in his wheelchair.

It’s polite to respond to invitations Dear Erin, I recently hosted a holiday open house. My invitation included a request to RSVP to the event. I was shocked at the number of people who did not respond at all or did so the morning of the event.

How can I encourage my guests to follow through with this?

— Counting in Kitsap Dear Counting, You are not alone. I have heard from many people with similar complaints.

From backyard barbecues to formal weddings, people seem to haven forgotten that it is common courtesy to respond to invitations.

We are a busy society and invitations can get buried under stacks of mail, or hidden in inboxes. As the host, if you send invitations via email, consider using an online invitation website.

Make sure you have current email addresses for your guests and be mindful that some people check their email more frequently than others, so you shouldn’t expect immediate responses. Many online services will tell the host when the invitation has been opened by the recipient, and will automatically send out

ASK ERIN

By ERIN JENNINGS reminders to guests before the scheduled event.

If, however, the date approaches and you still haven’t heard from an invitee, give the person a call.

Tell them you are confirming that they received the invitation, as it would be a shame if they missed the party because the invitation was stuck in the spam filter.

This will allow you to give a gentle reminder without appearing too pushy.

If you aren’t relying on websites to contact your guest list, you will need to pick up the phone and contact the lackadaisical guests.

Tell them that you are firming up the head count and are hoping they will be able to make it.

As a guest, when you are invited to a function, make a goal of responding within

Dear Erin, I have a question that might cause a “stink.”

I have noticed fellow dog owners responsibly bagging their dog’s waste, and then depositing it in the first personal garbage can they pass.

Is the “pick up” the important task, or disposal choice just as important?

Artist Max Hayslette discusses an abstract he is working on in his Kingston studio.

Continued from page 1 It’s an appropriate honor for an artist with Hayslette’s prolific career, but this octogenarian is not showing signs of slowing.

He moved from a secluded studio in Eglon to a studio and gallery on Highway 104 in downtown Kingston, where he periodically hosts Martinis with Max. In April, he was named a Distinguished West Virginian by that state’s governor.

In July, his “George and the Boogie Woogie” was unveiled at Roby King Galleries’ “Americana” show; “George” features the first president against a colorful abstract background.

Hayslette was born in 1930 and graduated from Chicago’s Academy of Art in 1951. He studied under artist/sculptor Alexander Archipenko, who was connected to the Bauhaus movement, one of the most influential currents in Modernist architecture and modern design. The Bauhaus had a profound influ-

a day or two of receiving the invitation. Even if you have to tell the host that you are a “maybe” about attending, at least they know you’ve received the invitation. And then make sure to follow through as the date approaches.

And while we are discussing party etiquette, please be considerate of the start and finish time listed on the invitation. It’s OK to be fashionably late by a few minutes, but by all means, don’t come before the start time. As any host knows, the few remaining moments before the party begins is filled with last minute details like lighting candles or icing down the beverages.

If an end time is listed, be respectful and don’t overstay your welcome. If your host changes into her pajamas, you’ve stayed too long.

Richard Walker / Kitsap Week

ence upon art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design, and typography; many of the movement’s driving personalities were living and working in Chicago when Hayslette arrived there to study art.

Hayslette worked for Olson Designers in Chicago, an industrial design firm specializing in exhibits. In 1962, he moved to Seattle to join Berg Craftsman, and designed exhibits for the 1962, 1964 and 1967 World’s Fairs. His design work for Pacific Northwest Bell and Boeing received national attention.

In 1972, he founded Olympus Graphics on Bainbridge, producing large-

scale, abstract serigraphs for the design and corporate art market.

Having explored numerous artistic styles and images, it remains the creative process that is most important to Hayslette.

“Every image begins in my head,” he told Global Gallery. “Memory colored by imagination is the root from which my images grow.

“As is my practice in all of my paintings, I choose a subject — sometimes more than one — study it or them well, and then mentally disassemble the parts, mixing and reassembling them into a new image with a new spirit, which is my own.”

— Disposing in Dyes Inlet Dear Disposing, In general, you should dispose of your dog’s waste in your own trash can.

However, there may be exceptions.

If you are walking your dog in your neighborhood on trash day and you know the truck hasn’t made its

rounds, it’s OK to deposit the waste, knowing it will be picked up by the end of the day — just make sure to securely replace the lid so you don’t inadvertently attract critters.

If, however, the trash has already been picked up for the week, don’t place the waste into an empty can.

The owners won’t appreci-

ate what you’ve deposited, as each passing day causes the waste to become more pungent.

If you are walking in a park, it’s fine to use the public waste receptacles, as they are frequently emptied.

No need to cart the waste home.

BY ANDY PERDUE AND ERIC DEGERMAN

Wine Press Northwest

I

n November, we conducted our 12th annual Platinum Judging, what we have dubbed “the best of the best in the Great Northwest.”

Last week, we shared some of the top wines from British Columbia’s Gehringer Brothers Estate Winery, which won six Platinums in the 12th competition.

This week, we will look at some of the best wines from Washington, Oregon and Idaho, along with brief descriptions.

Wines are eligible to enter the Platinum if they from the Northwest and have won gold medals in any of about 35 professionally judged competitions around the world. We bring in top judges from as far away as Georgia and California (as well as the Northwest) to evaluate the wines under blind conditions, meaning the do not know the producer or the price.

Many of these wines are still available. To purchase, check with your favorite wine merchant or contact the winery directly.

“We’re selecting a total of 20 organizations to participate, with $3,000 for first place, $2,000 for second and $1,000 for third place in the parade.”

The 20 organizations chosen to participate in the parade will be randomly selected from all entries.

Floats will be judged on theme, originality and execution by a team of five Clearwater representatives, including three employees who won their judging seats in a preliminary shoebox float competition held a month before the event.

Clearwater Casino guests also have the opportunity to participate in the judging.

The floats are scheduled to

be on display at the casino a week before the parade.

During that time, guests can vote for their favorite float. The float with the most votes from Clearwater guests receives an additional five points toward its overall parade score.

Service organizations and leadership groups can apply online at www.clearwatercasino.com/fat-tuesday-parade. Entry deadline is Jan. 13, 5 p.m. A complete list of rules is available online at www.clearwatercasino.com/ fat-tuesday-parade.

The Fat Tuesday Parade of Service is scheduled to begin Feb. 21, 7 p.m. on February 21, inside Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort.

BainBridge island review The flowing spirits of Bainbridge Island: Washington has carved out a niche for itself in the subculture of craft brewing and wines, but there is a new libation on the scene and it’s got spirit.

Washington’s craft distillery industry is emerging fast, and Bainbridge has access to a corner of this scene through the Bainbridge Organic Distillery — among many that have recently been founded across the state, yet stands out as one of the more unique, and ethical.

“People seem very interested in small-scale or specialty spirits production,” said Keith Barnes, owner of BOD. “(It shows) how much more interesting the products can be when they are made by

The police later discovered Burke’s body on the sidewalk on Warren Avenue.

Patrol officers are also helping with the workload by investigating smaller cases which have taken a back seat to the Burke murder, according to Detective Sgt. Kevin Crane of the Bremerton Police Department.

“A murder case should take top billing,” Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent said.

“Others will just have to take second billing. I want closure on this case for our city.”

Burke’s murder was the first in Bremerton since 2008.

Dashner has been working on his culminating senior project — each student is required to do a project on anything of interest to them — on the Occupy movement that started on Wall Street and spread around the world.

“People need to care,” he said. “If you pay taxes, buy at the store, own a home, then this is something that affects you.”

In Kitsap County, members of Occupy Bremerton congregated outside of the county courthouse building in Port Orchard earlier this month to protest against foreclosure auctions.

KITSAP NAVY NEWS “My Military Family” art

Friday, January 6, 2012 contest: The Armed Services YMCA is looking for a few good artists on Bangor and Bremerton bases.

Elementary school-age children from kindergarten to sixth grade can compete in the annual art competition with the theme “My Military Family.”

Fliers have been distributed throughout the Navy bases, but the contest is open to children with parents in all branches of military service, according to the contest rules.

First prize is a $500 U.S. Savings Bond, and the winning entry will be made into a poster for national Military Family Month in November.

The postmark deadline for the contest is Feb. 17.

The crash occurred near Three Berry Lane, where a motorcyclist died Sept. 23 after colliding with a Jeep Cherokee.

This was the 56th injury vehicle collision between January 2005 and December 2011 on Hansville Road, according to Laboda. The severity of those injuries vary.

Though she expected Miller Bay Road to have a higher number of crashes than Hansville Road due to the amount of curves and hills, Laboda said there were nine fewer crashes — 47 — between 2005 and 2011.

NORTH KITSAP HERALD Injury crash was 56th injury collision on Hansville Road since 2005: A vehicle collision on Hansville Road Dec. 30 raised the total number of injury collisions on that road to 56 in approximately a six-year period.

School district still faces uncertain budget issues: Mixed. That might be the most accurate way to describe the feelings of South Kitsap School District Superintendent Dave LaRose and Financial Operations Officer Sandy Rotella regarding a variety of budget issues.

It starts at the state level.

Both LaRose and Rotella said they do not anticipate another mid school-year rescission.

In December, the state House and Senate passed legislation expected to close most of Washington’s $1.1 billion

budget shortfall. Those cuts — combined with previous ones by Gov. Christine Gregoire — were expected to reduce the deficit by around $700 million.

That included a $50 million reduction from public schools, which included the elimination of funding to keep class sizes smaller in kindergarten through fourth grade.

Terri Patton, retired South Kitsap assistant superintendent for business and support, said that was particularly difficult because the school district already had allocated those funds to hire teachers. Because of union contracts, she said the district simply could not lay off those employees. Patton estimated at the time that it cost South Kitsap School District $795,000 in 2010-11 and $950,000 for this school year.

“I don’t want any of our staff to worry about what our priorities might be,” said LaRose, noting that he and other school district officials regularly have met with several legislators.

“Our priorities will be kids and the people we serve.”
