Rutledge seeks legal opinion Questions whether appointment of Bockus was legal

By MEGAN STEPHENSON

And in that spirit, the Poulsbo Library’s Teen Advisory Board has created a special place for teens at the library: The Dragon’s Den, a teenpriority reading and studying room.

POULSBO — It’s a case that has split the Port of Poulsbo Commission. Commissioners and staff alike say they have the port’s interests at heart.

Questions have arisen regarding Commissioner Arnold Bockus’ recent appointment, and whether it is legal for a commissioner who is leaving office to be appointed to a different seat.

Bockus, formerly of Position 3, lost in the November election to Jim Rutledge, but was appointed to fill Glenn Gilbert’s Position 2 seat after Gilbert resigned effective Nov. 30.

After the election, Rutledge initially said he didn’t anticipate any problems working

Oyen, after all, devoted the last 18 years of her life to making the library a warm and welcoming place, “(inspiring) a love of reading in adults and children alike,” according to a plaque at the library.

Creek

“I’m thrilled with the way the bridge looks. It’s striking to see how narrow the culvert was.”

Continued from page A1 Naomi Maasberg, administrative director of the Stillwaters Environmental Education Center, took a walk down to the bridge recently. Though one side was still under heavy construction, she said when looking at the project from the Apple Tree Cove side, it’s easy to see what the final work will look like.

“I’m thrilled with the way the bridge looks,” she said.

“It’s striking to see how narrow the culvert was.”

The project is intended to restore a more natural exchange of water between Apple Tree Cove and the Carpenter Creek estuary on the other side of South Kingston Road. With a more natural exchange of water, wildlife habitats are expected to see a change for the better.

What was once a 10-foot culvert will become a 70-foot bridge when crews are finished. There are already concerns over motorized watercraft entering the estuary.

The Kitsap County Commission recently approved a proposal to place signs warning motorized watercraft not to enter the estuary. Maasberg said signs are the most basic thing they

— Naomi Maasberg, director of Stillwaters

The 70-foot bridge across Carpenter Creek will replace a road and 10-foot culvert, allowing for a free flow of water and improved wildlife habitat conditions. A portion of the culvert can still be seen under the bridge.

Kipp Robertson / Herald could install. Without them, there is little that could be done to deter anyone from entering.

“Our concern is that we’re restoring the estuary for getting a better habitat for fish and wildlife,” she said.

“To add motorized vehicles in a very shallow waterway [would be] upsetting to the very creatures we’re looking to protect.”

However, non-motorized watercraft such as canoes and kayaks will be allowed.

“It will be a much nicer place if a Sea-Doo can’t go

running by,” Maasberg said, laughing.

Maasberg said Stillwaters will monitor the wildlife habitats and water flow once the project is finished. She said to expect an increased amount of fish, but, more importantly, a healthier habitat and more food sources for wildlife. Stillwaters will monitor the area for a minimum of 10 years, but some changes in habitat may not be noticeable for 30 or 40 years, she said. Studies will be done once per year.

Environmental groups

were studying the Carpenter Creek Estuary and watershed before construction began. Stillwaters and crews from the Suquamish Tribe took beach seining samples on both sides of the Carpenter Creek culvert.

Maasberg said the data collected before the project will be compared with data after the project is finished.

For now, contractor SB Structures of Seattle still has plenty of time to complete the project, Brand said.

Aside from a few delays, such as late materials, con-

struction has gone smoothly, he said.

“Workmanship is paramount to us,” he said. “And they have done it.”

The contract for the project was about $2.1 million.

Brand said there may be minor cost fluctuations, but little has changed since it was originally awarded to SB Structures in 2011.

The county and proponents planned the bridge project since 2001. A design was drafted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The Legislature OK’d the project in the 2010 state budget as part of a Puget Sound Partnership package.

Whether the project is finished or not, an auction and celebration will be held Feb. 25, 4-7 p.m. at the Suquamish Education Center. The event will be open to the public. More information will be available as the date nears.

Rutledge

Continued from page A1 with Bockus. But Rutledge said he began asking questions about the appointment after local residents expressed concern to him about how a sitting commissioner could be appointed to another vacancy.

Rutledge turned to the State Auditor’s Office for clarification: Can Commissioner Tony DeCarlo nominate Bockus to fill in the unexpired term — effective Jan. 1, 2012 — and can Bockus vote for himself?

Never having seen or heard of this situation before — a three-member

Teen room

Continued from page A1 Visitors during the open house Jan. 27 would have seen a room full of teens reading, perusing shelves, studying with their laptops, and visiting over tea.

It’s a teen-priority room because most hours it is open only to teens: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, 1-6 p.m.; Thursday, 1-5 p.m.; Friday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

According to librarians Jennifer Lu’Becke and Lynn Stone, the room was formerly a reading room open to all. But the Teen Advisory Board, which began meeting in November 2010, deter-

board down to one member — Chairman DeCarlo said he and port attorney Greg Norbut consulted with higher governmental agencies as to protocol.

DeCarlo, Rutledge and Norbut seem to have received conflicting advice.

Scott Woelfle of the State Auditor Office responded to Rutledge’s question, advising the commission work with its legal counsel, the County Auditor and the state Secretary of State office to find an appropriate answer. However, Woelfle gives the opinion that, “It does not appear that a current commissioner could be appointed to fill a vacancy until after the current term of office has expired.

Further, if that position remains unfilled after (Dec. 31), the appointment would be made by the two commissioners then in place (one current, one newly elected).”

County Elections Manager Dolores Gilmore said it’s not within her office to answer questions about vacancies, only elections.

Norbut said he consulted with Robert’s Rules of Order, a widely used book advising on parliamentary assembly, which says, “No member of board can be compelled to refrain from voting because of a perception that he or she may have some conflict of interest.”

“We did what we felt was the right thing to do,” Norbut

said. Because only two people applied for the vacancy in its three-week application period, one of whom lived in Silverdale and was disqualified, Bockus was the only option. Norbut said there was not a conflict of interest because there was only one viable applicant. “Ethics and public perception are a lot different than [what] statues and precedents provide. It’s very gray. All we can do is act in good faith.”

At the Dec. 1 regular port meeting, DeCarlo appointed Bockus to the vacancy effective Jan. 1. Bockus recused himself and handed the chairmanship to DeCarlo before the vote.

After Rutledge brought the commission his ques-

tions and DeCarlo consulted with Norbut, DeCarlo said he felt confident that he was indeed able to appoint Bockus. DeCarlo and Bockus voted at the Dec. 28 meeting to affirm the appointment; the term ends in 2015 and Bockus will have to run for the remainder of the term in 2013.

Bockus said he thinks the situation is “sad.”

“Too much effort is being placed on something that’s already been decided,” he said Thursday. He added that because he did not begin Position 2 until Jan. 1, “I wasn’t wearing two hats.”

Rutledge is looking into this case to find the “legal process that the citizens of the port are due of their

elected officials.” He was not informed of a special board meeting called Dec. 28 to discuss the appointment, he said.

Rutledge sent a request to Rep. Sherry Appleton, D-Poulsbo, to ask the state Attorney General to review the case and give a legal opinion. Dan Sytman, spokesman for the Attorney General office, said opinions usually take about 60 days to complete.

The commission planned to discuss this further at Thursday night’s regularly scheduled board meeting.

“I’m interested in seeing what develops,” Bockus said. “I’m hoping we can get on with port business.”

mined a space where they could meet and enjoy teenspecific materials would be useful; there were, after all, special places in the library for adults and children, but none for teens.

The Friends of the Library donated $2,700 for new furniture; advisory board members selected furniture and wall colors from catalogs. Teen-interest books located elsewhere in the library were relocated to the Dragon’s Den shelves.

Also in the Dragon’s Den are books-on-CD; manga, popular Japanese-style comics and print cartoons; teen fiction and non-fiction; and new releases. As with all library patrons, teens have access to e-books, free music

downloads and a number of databases.

Auburne’ Fox-Hughes, a volunteer, said the room was formerly dominated by a giant reading table. “It was not a nice look,” she said. “It’s been redecorated, with these smaller tables and furniture, and it’s more welcoming. It’s comfortable in here.”

Indeed. Samantha Cruson, an eighth grader at Klahowya Secondary School who formerly lived in Poulsbo, sipped tea and chatted with Fox-Hughes' sister, Chloe, a

home-schooled high school senior. They said they prefer reading books in print than on a computer (Auburne’ and Chloe are well-versed in print and online reading; their mother, Clarice, is an author and blogger).

Elina Krafsky, a homeschooled freshman, sat under a window and read a book on string theory.

Sharon Wu, a ninth-grader at Ridgetop Junior High School in Silverdale, studied on her laptop. Kristy Correll, a junior at North Kitsap High School, read on the com-

fortable love seat. Timothy Cruson, a sixth-grader at Jackson Park Elementary School in Bremerton, and Alex Koch and Joshua Schwandt, sophomores at North Kitsap, perused the book shelves.

It’s a busy place, but then again, the Teen Advisory Board is a busy group. The advisory board meets on the third Friday of the month.

The Anime Club — anime is a popular animation style that originated in Japan — meets on the second Friday.

Advisory board members

volunteer for the Friends of the Library Book Sale and Summer Reading Program.

The advisory board plans a Mardi Gras Party on Feb. 21. There will be a search and rescue presentation on March 2, 3:30-4:30 p.m., to coincide with the release of the movie “Hunger Games.”

In a Jan. 20 letter to the Herald, Stone wrote that the new room will give teens some library ownership and “make them library shareholders.”

Valborg Oyen would be pleased.

IN OUR OPINION

Medical cannabis: Change federal law

F

orty-two state legislators from both parties have asked the U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency to reclassify cannabis so that it can be used medically.

Reclassification would enable states to establish laws for the regulation of medical cannabis without fear of reaction from federal enforcement agencies. In April, bowing to threats from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Gov. Chris Gregoire vetoed most parts of a bill legalizing medical cannabis. A day earlier, as if to reinforce their message that U.S. marijuana law trumps state law, federal agents raided medical cannabis dispensaries in Washington state.

For medical cannabis to be legally available to those whose health would benefit from it, it’s clear federal law must be changed. Voters in 16 states have legalized medical cannabis.

The Washington State Legislature approved a bill legalizing and regulating medical cannabis. But federal law doesn’t distinguish between medical cannabis and recreational marijuana. And so, without a change in federal law, the conflict will continue.

There is a difference between medical cannabis and what Willie Nelson calls “a fat Austin torpedo.” Medical cannabis uses certain chemicals in the cannabis plant that have been shown to have medicinal value and can be taken by capsule, extract, spray or smoking. Medical cannabis has been used to relieve nausea and pain, lower eye pressure in glaucoma patients, and stimulate hunger in patients with disease-related weight loss. Federal law should be changed to allow people to have the same access to medical cannabis as they do other prescription medications.

Under state Senate Bill 5073, medical cannabis would have been regulated by the state Department of Health. Production, processing and dispensing would have been regulated and licensed. A qualifying patient’s medical use of cannabis would have been authorized by a health care professional and registered with the state.

This bill would have allowed cities to adopt appropriate enforcement, licensing and zoning for medical cannabis dispensaries within their boundaries. Lacking such direction from the state, Poulsbo and other cities have issued moratoriums on medical cannabis dispensaries.

Mary Clare Kersten, a coordinator of Sensible Washington, which supports the legalization of cannabis, called dispensaries “an act of mercy” to those who need medical cannabis but have no access to it. She said dispensaries are run like pharmacies and require documentation not unlike a prescription.

And they can dispense medical cannabis in a form that will best benefit the patient’s condition.

“It’s not a stoner shop. It’s a medical marijuana shop,” she said.

Federal law should be changed to reflect, and allow, that.

Recommends getting a range extender Only in America do we make believe that humans do not need to periodically relieve themselves.

We have almost zero public restrooms, yet arrest anyone seen going potty in the bushes. This is particularly a problem for us old folks. The American public scene is characterized by a lot of bladder pain. So here is a solution that works for me: When I was a rather old student pilot (46 in 1980), midway into my first solo cross-country flight to Astoria I realized that I needed a “rest stop.” Upon landing at Astoria, I was holding my legs so tight together that I could hardly work the controls and nearly got arrested for excessive taxi speed trying to get to the men’s room at the FBO (fixed-base operator). Discussing this problem later with my instructor, he advised me to get a “range extender” for use in flight.

As a result, I never again went airborne without my range extender (an empty Costco plastic peanut jar works great). This progressed to keeping a range extender in every one of my vehicles, because like being airborne, the roadside restrooms are mostly absent.

So, here is my advice to ferry lane holders: get a range extender.

Works for men. The ladies will have to come up with their own solution.

An egregious attack on our schools Children of Washington state take a back seat in the Legislature again. Plastic bags, driving in the rain with headlights, and gay marriage are much more important in Olympia.

Kids can’t vote, so year after year the arrogant, self-centered elected leaders of our state ignore our schools. Frank Chopp has an iron grip on every Democrat in the House. Nothing sees the light of day without his blessing. The Senate is the same. The governor gives lip service. She called a special session of the Legislature, paid them for doing nothing, and still has no budget solution.

While bloated bureaucracies mushroom and gorge on tax dollars, children in our schools receive less and less. But teachers and principals are held accountable when their schools cannot meet all the mandates the state imposes.

The state Supreme Court ruled the Legislature is not meeting its Constitutional responsibility to education; Frank Chopp says

they’ll “try” to fix that by 2018.

So, what happens to our children between now and then? It will take a decade to rebuild the programs, libraries, teaching staff, etc., and in the meantime, more kids are robbed of the one thing that most parents can’t provide without public schools.

This illegal and senseless tragedy has occurred over several terms, but Gov. Gregoire has presided over the latest most egregious attacks on our schools. Her legacy and that of her legislative body of friends will be the disintegration of Washington state public schools.

Thanks, Queen Chris, you’ll be remembered.

Event reminds us that many bowls are empty It is a pleasure to live in a town such as Poulsbo, with generous community members. Although each of us has been dealing with the economic downturn in our own way, the spirit of sharing and caring lives in the souls of Poulsbo residents.

It is through the generosity of residents and businesses that the

Fishline Food Bank successfully held its first annual fundraiser “Empty Bowls” on Jan 28. The concept of Empty Bowls was simple: The public was invited to the fundraiser to choose a hand-painted bowl, have it filled with warm soup for a $15 donation, and then take the bowl home as a reminder that for many, bowls are often empty.

It takes a dedicated community to put this event together. I would like to thank several of our sponsors.

Susan Butler, owner of Indy Studio, took on the project as the bowl painting studio for us all to paint at for nearly six months. She provided her space, time and expertise for all painters and donated many of her signature pieces.

Local artists from the Verksted Gallery are long-time supporters of the Food Bank and once again they provided the most beautiful works of art imaginable for us to auction.

The ceramics class at NKHS actually made bowls, then painted them!

Central Market did an amazing job in providing four outstanding soups for us to serve.

Response to letter about commutes Fred, I think you are pointing the finger of accusation in the wrong direction (“The most expensive commute in America,” page A4, Jan. 27 Herald).

The state Department of Transportation purchased two faster ferries back in the 1980s to reduce transit time to 35 minutes from Seattle to Bremerton. They had ordered two others for the Bainbridge route too.

However, due to the ferries creating a bow wave that could be seen by your neighbors on Bainbridge Island and the squeaky-wheel principal, the ferries were taken off the Bremerton run and put onto the Bainbridge Island run only, canceling

the two Ronnies about the “Four Candles.” Now this is a prime example of English cultural humour. American humour is easily accessible.

English humour has a little inside joke that you have to get first before you can find the rest funny.

This is more of an aural joke rather than a joke you can read, but I’ll try. The sketch goes that the man goes into a hardware shop and asks for “four candles.”

The shop assistant goes and gets the four candles as requested. The customer gets irate and keeps saying he wants “four candles.” It transpires that he wants fork handles! English people brought up during the rationing of WWII understand and think this is hilarious, whereas Americans

just think who the heck buys fork handles?

Indianola getting ready to row

The men’s novice crew (Devin Bodony, Ethan Meyer, Evan Lenz and Tom James, coxed by Kirsten Jewell) from the Indianola Rowing Association preapres for its race at the Frostbite Regatta in the fall of 2011. The team placed first. It was the first win for the association.

INDIANOLA — Tucked away in Indianola, a small group of athletes pull on rowing machines in the

basement of the Wise Acres Community Center Tuesday night. Bill Richards stands near the athletes, coaxing them to push themselves just a little more. A few feet away, rowers lay on mats, stretching; preparing for their turn on the machines.

The rowers, mostly Indianola residents, are preparing for the first full season of rowing with the Indianola Rowing Association.

This season, the association will enroll in at least one regatta per quarter. It expects to enroll up to 40 rowers, though not all will compete. Right now, those enrolled are preparing for the season with winter workouts, which began in December.

“Honestly, I had not thought about rowing until last summer,” association president Kirsten Jewell said

outside the community center. Jewell was contacted by Richards, a longtime rower and Indianola resident who wanted to start a rowing club. She tried it once and “was hooked.”

Until the Indianola Rowing Association was created, the closest rowing club was on Bainbridge Island.

Although the association is less than one year old, it is not without success.

At the Greenlake Frostbite Regatta in November, the association’s novice men’s masters crew — Devin Bodony, Ethan Meyer, Evan Lenz and Tom James, coxed

by Jewell — took first in a 1,000-meter race. The team defeated Lewis and Clark College by 12 seconds.

Lenz, a resident of the Wise Acres community, said team members really didn’t know how far ahead they were until the race was over. They didn’t have time to feel tired, let alone see their position in the lanes.

“The whole thing was a blur,” he said. “We didn’t really have time to feel tired.” After they had finished “we looked behind us and the second-place boat was pretty far behind.”

The novice rowers were supported by the Indianola community. He’s not sure See ROWING, Page A9

I began using the North Kitsap Herald coupon program a year ago.

The results exceeded my expectations. I used a “buy one get one” offer for the first eight months and tracked the results. Customers used a total of 715 coupons in that period. That means that I had an average of 3 coupon customers per day. The NK Herald reaches my exact customer base, making it the most effective advertising medium available to me.

Happy 100th Anniversary!

4 sign letters of intent

KINGSTON — In a proud week for parents and the Kingston and Poulsbo communities, four local students signed with collegiate teams.

Kingston seniors Sam Byers, Tori Gerken and Marina Roberts have all been offered athletic scholarships to NCAA Division I and II schools. North Kitsap’s Delanee Nilles signed her letter of intent for Western Washington University Thursday.

Byers will attend the Air Force Academy. He will play tight end for the Air Force Falcons. Included on his list of athletic achievements at Kingston, Byers helped bring the Buccaneer football team to the playoffs for the first time in program history in 2010 and again in 2011.

He also helped lead the basketball team to a State appearance in the 201011 season; the Bucs took third.

Gerken will play soccer next year at California State University — Monterey Bay, a Division II school.

Gerken and the Bucs soccer team have advanced to the sub-district and district tournaments throughout the five-year-old program.

At Monterey Bay, Gerken plans to narrow her focus to bio-chemistry to prepare for pharmaceutical studies, according to athletic director Dan Novick.

Signing

North Kitsap’s Delanee Nilles signed to the Western Washington University soccer team Wednesday.

Continued from page A6 Roberts was offered a scholarship to run cross country and track at Colorado State University, a Division I school.

Roberts’ accomplishments include her first place finish in the 1600 meters during the 2A State Track Championships in 2011 with a time of 5 minutes 5.53 seconds. Also, during the past three cross country seasons, Roberts took second twice (2009 and 2010) and third (2011) in the 5,000 meters during the State Championships.

“All of these kids have excelled in and outside the classroom,” Novick said after the signing ceremony on Wednesday.

Novick said on the field, students often get more from the team than they give. However, the three KHS students who signed Wednesday “have given a lot,” he said.

This is the most KHS students who have signed at once, Novick said. Though scholarships may not be

within every student’s reach, he said this shows there’s more opportunity out there for students seeking posthigh school education.

Nilles will play with WWU’s Division I soccer program.

Nilles was a four-year starter with the North

Kitsap Vikings soccer team.

She is a two-time Olympic League MVP. In an email, Coach Chris May wrote Nilles is one of the “all-time best soccer players in the 30-year history of the North [Kitsap] soccer program.”

“She was a leader on and

off the field for North and is one of the best players to come out of the West Sound region,” May wrote. “Her work ethic at practice, her teamwork and desire to win helped propel NKHS into the state tournament for the past several years.”

The race was not without its difficulties, however.

One of the rowers blew out his knee a week before the event. The rower’s replacement had one week to train.

Jewell said the team’s technique was probably not up to par, either. And the team was using a boat given away by the Bainbridge club.

Without “great boats or technology or experience,” however, Jewell said the team made it happen.

“All the people in the boat were just so determined and so excited,” she said. “It was important, because we proved that we could do it; we had what it takes.”

The association can be seen practicing on the waters of Miller Bay. Both Lenz and Jewell praise the beauty of the bay. Along with wildlife, the limited amount of

watercraft makes it an ideal place to row. Currently, the association launches shells from a private residence.

Because it’s still building, the association is still building its inventory of equipment. It currently has three

Suquamish artist’s work chosen for State Capitol

and Appleton’s office in the Capitol Building in January.

“The Real World,” a contrast of the natural and manmade taken at Port Blakely on Bainbridge Island, and “Canoe Nation,” an interpretation of the annual Canoe Journey, were chosen from Wood’s body of work.

His prize-winning art, featuring bold primary colors and emotional abstract expressions, have been displayed at various Kitsap County venues and are currently on display at Local Harvest restaurant on Bainbridge Island.

This exhibit marks the inaugural effort to feature Kitsap artists in the State Capitol building, and the work will be on display for at least three months.

The main purpose of the association, Jewell said, is to provide opportunities for people in North Kitsap to row either recreationally or competitively. Jewell is not sure what the demand is for rowing in the area; however, the association is trying to make it affordable — $225 per person for a season.

The association began when Richards acquired a boat being given away by the Bainbridge Island Rowing Club. Richards was a member of the club for about 10 years before starting the club in Indianola. He took two shells home on top of his Volkswagen van.

Richards posted a note at the Indianola General Store and word of the association spread throughout the community. About 25 people, whose ages range from

mid-20s to 60s, showed up.

There were a lot of new rowers, Richards said.

“It’s really a remarkable turnout from a really small community,” he said.

For now, the association participates in the master’s rowing division, which means age 27 or older. Most of the competition comes from the Seattle area and universities, where rowing is more established.

Jewell said rowing is a culture all its own. A lot of people view it as an elitist sport, she said. It’s expensive, which is why the association works to keep costs low.

Besides racing, Lenz said the structure of the sport is something he enjoys.

Because the team he is on is made up of four rowers and a coxswain, he is held accountable for his participation.

If interested in joining the rowing association, contact coach Richards, wrich33195@aol.com.

May not have to make up snow days School district waiting to see if more snow days are coming

By KIPP ROBERTSON

krobertson@northkitsapherald.com

NURSE OF THE YEAR TAKING CHARGE, SAVING LIVES, OFFERING COMPASSION. NELSON MONASTRIAL, RN, is a potent force for excellent patient care. You’d never know it to look at him. He leads his team of nurses on a busy critical care unit with quiet for titude and focused attention, dispensing advice and inspiring co-workers along the way. His gift for guiding patient care to good outcomes during the most intense situations is remarkable. For this, Nelson was honored recently as the 2011 March of Dimes Nurse of the Year for Patient/Clinical Care. Congratulations to Nelson and our other nominees.

Pictured: Cherie Pittard, RN, Nelson Monastrial, RN, Lois Brogan, RN, Sylvia Thomas, RN, Pat Clemetson, RN. Not pictured: D’enne Boles, RN, Lynn Ferrell, RN, Summer Fosdick, RN. Thank you for serving our patients with care and compassion.

POULSBO — Students in the North Kitsap School District will have to wait and see if they need to make up those snow days.

District administration has made no decision regarding makeup days after a storm that closed schools are Kitsap County Jan. 18-20. District communications director Robyn Chastain said the first thing the district is going to do is wait to see if there are more snow days.

The district allows for one school week to be made up each year. Last year, the district made up days missed due to a storm in November 2010.

There are three options administration can choose from: apply for a state waiver; consider instructional minutes; or make up the missed days. A state waiver is available if the governor declares a state of emergency, which she did after the January storm. Students may not have to make up snow days if they receive the minimum amount of instructional days before the school year ends. The minimum instructional hours for students in grades seven to 12 is at least 1,080, 1,000 for students in grades one through six and 450 for kindergarten.

Though NKSD has not made a decision, other districts in Kitsap have.

According to the Port Orchard Independent, the South Kitsap School District extended its schedule by four days to make up for those missed by the storm.

And Central Kitsap School District administration plans to add three days to the end of the school year; however, the district has not ruled out waiver days, according to a report by the Central Kitsap Reporter.

A waiver would not only mean fewer school days for students, but fewer work days for district employees. Employees would not be compensated for waiver days, which would mean cost savings for the district.

PAL Program, Pearson Elementary receive state award POULSBO — North Kitsap School District’s Parent Assisted Learning Program and Hilder Pearson Elementary School are recipients of the 2011 Washington Achievement Award by the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction and the state Board of Education.

PAL, a program that offers both part and full-

time home-based instruction for grades K-8 support by and in coordination with North Kitsap School District teachers, is receiving the award for improvement.

Hilder Pearson Elementary is being recognized for closing the achievement gap.

“We are extremely proud of the work of our very dedicated PAL staff,” said Patricia Moore, the district

director of elementary education and special programs.

“They are outstanding in providing support to our home-school families that want to collaborate with NKSD. Their educational efforts are directly linked to the student achievement they are being recognized for.”

The Washington Achievement Award cel-

ebrates top-performing schools and recognizes achievement in multiple categories. This highly selective award is based on school performance according to the Washington Achievement Index, a comprehensive measurement of how schools in Washington are performing over time. The Washington Achievement Award is given

to elementary, middle, high and comprehensive schools in seven different categories: overall excellence, language arts, math, science, extended graduation rate (high and comprehensive schools only), improvement and closing achievement gaps.

The PAL Program and Hilder Pearson Elementary will be recognized on April

25 for their achievements

by OSPI and the state Board of Education at a ceremony in Everett.

Vinland Elementary School received the 2010 Washington Achievement Award for Overall Excellence.

Local resident Jan Wold and a few councilmembers raised concerns about the growth rates, which predict Poulsbo’s population will reach nearly 15,000 by 2025. However, because the city is required to ratify the amendments, and will hold discussions regarding growth rates in 2014, the council unanimously voted accept the amendments.

The Kitsap Board of County Commissioners recently adopted amendments to the policies; cities and tribes within the county must ratify the amendments within 90 days.

The proposed amendments align the county’s planning policies with the Puget Sound Regional Council’s VISION 2040.

According to the agenda summary, these include recognizing the importance of local agriculture to the economy and local “rural

character”; references to human-related impacts to air and water quality; expands inter-jurisdictional coordination in infrastructure and planning communities; and allows restrictive Fully Contained Communities, among others.

time during the amendment process. Agencies, tribes and the public had until Jan. 27 to review and comment on the environmental impacts of the proposed projects.

The non-motorized trail plan, connecting Poulsbo’s numerous parks and establishing connections to the forthcoming North Kitsap Trail Plan (also known as the String of Pearls), still has conceptualized trails. Parks and Recreation Director Mary McCluskey said the plan was adjusted since its last public meeting in October, and a proposed trail was moved 300 feet from Johnson Creek.

McCluskey said no other private landowner came forward since October with additional comments, and the desired trails that cut through private property are still being worked out.

The staff report on the amendments will be avail-

able mid-February and will go before the Planning Commission Feb. 28, 7 p.m., at City Hall. The City Council will hold a second public hearing in April.

Comments can be submitted to the Poulsbo Planning Department, 200 Moe St. NE, Poulsbo, WA 98370; faxed to (360) 697-8269; or emailed to planninginfo@ cityofpoulsbo.com

$73,846: ShareNet’s Neighbor Aid breaks a record

bank, a clothing bank, and a program to make nutritious food available for school children on weekends. ShareNet also assists families and individuals facing eviction or needing help keeping their utilities on.

Between July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011, ShareNet put food on people’s tables 9,578 times. Some 260,929 pounds of food were distributed.

ShareNet spent $30,000 in 2011 helping people avoid eviction and keep their electricity on. ShareNet provided more than 165 new, stocked backpacks to students need-

ing back to school supplies.

Adults needing clothes for work received them from ShareWear.

The Thanksgiving holiday meal box program served 695 individuals with a total of 11,321 pounds of food, each box containing enough for Thanksgiving and several meals beyond. The Christmas Shop ensured more than 190 children received Christmas gifts.

The continued increase in the number of people helped

by ShareNet paints a picture of the times: In 2007-08, ShareNet’s food assistance

was almost one-fourth of what it is today. ShareNet’s staff has met the need without an increase in staffing or space; today, it has the same number of staff (four parttimers) in the same space as 2007-08.

ShareNet’s annual budget is about $150,000.

ShareNet executive director Mark Ince theorized that giving has increased because people in the community are seeing the need close to home.

“They’re feeling the pinch themselves, whereas maybe four years ago (the economic

downturn) hadn’t hit Kitsap that hard,” Ince said. “Now, maybe they have neighbors who are suffering, or family members who are suffering.

They are seeing it up close and personal in their own lives.”

Liberty Bay Auto in Poulsbo donated $100 for every car sold in November; that came out to $5,000.

Two donors gave money from trust funds. Others gave what they could.

“This is thrilling and humbling. We feel a great sense of responsibility,” Brumagin said.

KINGSTON — More than 300 donors — churches, companies, households, individuals and organizations — donated $73,846 to Neighbor Aid during the fall/winter campaign, which ended in January.

The amount is a record and will help ShareNet extend its reach of help. Last fall/winter, the campaign raised $60,000.

ShareNet’s Neighbor Aid campaign takes place at the same time as the Poulsbo Lion’s Bellringer

Fund, which raised $33,061.

Combined, the campaigns represent $106,907 in giving.

“It’s just amazing,” ShareNet board secretary Barbara Brumagin said Jan. 25. “Last year, we gave $33,000 to help people with their electricity and rent, and we will be able to do that again and probably more.”

ShareNet serves Eglon, Hansville, Indianola, Kingston Little Boston, Port Gamble, and a portion of Poulsbo and Suquamish.

Marriage equality bill could get final OK next week

By MAIDA SULJEVIC and SCOTT PANITZ WNPA Olympia News Bureau

OLYMPIA — As Senate President Brad Owens announced that the samesex marriage bill, ESSB 6239, had passed, an anxious audience of hundreds watching attentively during tense floor debate erupted in applause.

The bill, which had bipartisan support, passed in the Senate 28-21 late Wednesday. The bill has already garnered enough support in the House after it moves through committees to pass and is expected to be on the governor’s desk early next week.

“I think it’s one of the more powerful experiences of my life,” said Sen. Kevin Ranker, D–Orcas Island.

“This, getting married, and having my little girl. This is amazing. It’s an incredibly powerful experience.”

Sen. Ed Murray, D–Seattle, the main sponsor of the bill, was pleased with the outcome of the debate. “It was one of the best debates I’ve ever seen in my time in the Legislature,” he said. “And when we finally won, it was incredibly moving.”

Opponents of the bill are expected to file a referendum if the governor signs the bill into law. A referendum would allow Washington’s voters to decide whether to adopt, ratify or reject the legislation. A minimum of 120,577 signatures of registered voters are required to qualify a referendum for the fall ballot. If enough signatures are not filed by June, the law goes into effect.

Voters in 2009 easily ratified the state’s “Everything but Marriage” domestic partnership law, a precursor to the marriage equality bill approved by the Senate.

The new law would require those registered by the state in domestic partnerships to get married or dissolve their unions by June 2014, or the state would automatically convert their unions to state-recognized marriages.

During the debate, Sen. Brian Hatfield, D–Raymond, proposed an amendment to place the measure before Washington voters without requiring signatures.

Hatfield believes the legislation would create a significant change. Enough change that the Legislature should give citizens “the right to have their voice[s] heard,” he said.

The amendment was

rejected 23-26.

All told, seven floor amendments were approved, most of which provided protections for religious organizations, including churches, faith-based, and religious educational institutions and religious officials that could refuse services related to the solemnization or celebration of a marriage.

An amendment proposed

by Sen. Mary Margaret

Haugen, D-Camano Island, to ensure the law has no effect on the way religious or non-profit organizations currently handle adoption, foster care, or other childplacing services was also approved.

Speaking in opposition to the legislation was Sen. Dan Swecker, R–Rochester. He said the legislation would silence “those who believe in the traditional definition

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy these bonds. The offer is made only by the Official Statement.

MUNICIPAL BONDS TAX FREE INCOME CITY OF POULSBO, WASHINGTON LIMITED TAX GENERAL OBLIGATION AND REFUNDING BONDS, 2012 The City of Poulsbo, Washington (the “City”) is issuing Limited Tax General Obligation and Refunding Bonds (the “Bonds”) to currently refund the City’s outstanding Limited Tax General Obligation Bonds, 2003 to effect a cost savings for the City and pay off a line of credit, originally obtained to complete construction of the City Hall Project.

The Bonds will pay tax-free interest semiannually on June 1 and December 1. The Bonds will be issued in minimum denominations of $10,000 or integral multiples of $5,000.

Indications of interest are currently being taken.

of marriage.”

Many tears were shed as members of the Senate delivered their testimonies.

Ranker spoke in support of the legislation and recollected memories from his childhood and the hardships his father faced as a gay man.

“It was scary,” Ranker said of his testimony. “I’ve given dozens and dozens of speeches on this floor on all sorts of issues and I’m a fairly confident speaker — as my colleagues would probably tell me, maybe too confident — but this, I was nervous. I rehearsed it with my staff, which I never do.

For me, I write a few bullet points and give a speech; it’s not a problem. But this one I really had to think about it, because it was so personal. The hardest thing was, and this is why I was rehearsing it with my staff, I couldn’t get through it with-

out losing it. I’m just glad that I finished it.”

Should the governor, who requested the legislation, sign the bill into law next week, Washington becomes the seventh state in the nation to legalize gay marriage.

Fishline ops manager ‘is an amazing human being’ EDITOR’S T NOTEBOOK

he last thing Garvin Tootle would want is a story written about him in the local newspaper.

But there are a lot of people out there who believe his is a story that needs to be told.

You see, Tootle means a lot to them. He’s a no-nonsense Marine (retired, yes, but once a Marine, always a Marine) who doesn’t do things halfway. He’s patient with others’ personal foibles.

He can easily shed a tear for someone else, but would prefer that someone laugh with him when his chips are down.

People much younger would have a hard time keeping his schedule: 12 hours a day as Fishline’s operations manager, filling in on bread runs, cutting firewood for someone who needs it, volunteering with the Lions Club.

“I get in a quarter after 8 and he’s already been there,” volunteer trainer Karen Calhoun said.

People who work with and for him want him to know that he’s made a difference in their lives. He’s inspired them by his example. And they love him.

“He has done a lot for the community. But he’s not the kind of guy who blows his own horn,” one admirer said.

And so admirers are tooting their horns for Tootle.

His lifestory tells a lot about how to live: Selflessly, paying it forward, doing for others.

Back in the day, he enlisted as a Marine and after 14 years was commissioned. He retired as a captain.

After retiring, he built homes in Texas with Habitat for Humanity and served as a volunteer firefighter.

By RICHARD WALKER

He and his wife, J o a n , moved to Pou lsb o to be closer to their children. He became a volunteer with the Poulsbo Police Department and later joined Fishline.

He’s been Fishline’s operations manager for more than four years.

With Southern manners, military discipline, good humor and a good heart, he and a corps of 230 volunteers meet the needs of 6,000 people a month.

“He has become a hero to many,” Fishline director Mary Nader said.

“Volunteers respect and admire him. The community watches with awe as he works so hard to help others, and clients ask for him by name when they wish to be heard. He is quite a remarkable person, working tirelessly for 12 hours every day, only a part of that he’s paid for.”

She added, “He lives each day to its fullest. He’s a very hard worker and a very honorable man. He’s a benevolent soul and he feeds it by his activity. The more he does for others, the less he thinks about himself.”

Nader said Tootle has an amazing ability to meet any challenge he’s faced with.

“He never says he can’t do it, and he does it in a way that inspires others. He’s a natu-

ral leader. People are always ready to help him.”

Gwen Rose, a Fishline volunteer, has worked with Tootle since August 2009.

“One of the things about him is, there’s no halfway.

He’s full force — ‘On we go,’” she said.

“He shouldn’t be doing a lot of the things he’s doing, but he continues to do what he would be doing if he was 45.”

She added, “He’s a caring person. That’s the most I can say. He’s one of a kind.”

She told this story as an example.

“He cares about the volunteers and our clients. He just cares about people. I had a medical emergency Sunday — it was a false alarm, but something I need to have checked — and I left a message that I wouldn’t be in on Monday. A lot of the volunteers and staff were concerned. We’re sort of a

family there — we miss each other, we care about each other.

“Karen went in and Garvin figured she talked to me.

When she told Garvin, he was almost in tears – ‘Did we do something we shouldn’t have done?’ He was worried that maybe I had lifted something I shouldn’t have.

He’s very concerned about the people who work there.”

Gavin Watt of Indianola has worked at Fishline for three and a half years, first as a receptionist and then with the Food for Thought program, which provides weekend lunches for school children. Watt is also a member of the Fishline Board of Directors.

“He’s a great guy. I can’t say enough good about him. The amount of energy and effort he puts into that place.

“He served 28 years in the Marines. He volunteered

with Habitat for Humanity in Texas, volunteered for the Poulsbo Police Department.

He can’t seem to do enough for people.

“He’s a no-nonsense, getit-done kind of guy. He’s got a great sense of humor. I see him interact with clients, he’s great with them. They love the guy. He’s friendly, and they’re just neighbors to him.”

One Tootle admirer who asked to remain anonymous said, “He’s a totally committed human being. If he was in any corporation, he would run it.

“He’s there Saturdays. He’s

the core of this place. He has a good sense of humor and he treats people well. He’s totally goal-oriented, but never have I heard him be rude to anybody. He’s cheerful, funny, outgoing.”

Tootle doesn’t go into detail about his health. He admits he can’t do as much as he could six months ago.

But hints are dropped during the conversation. Seattle Cancer Care Alliance.

Experimental treatment.

And even today, in the face of the challenge of his life, he is hopeful — that someday someone will benefit from the treatments he’s testing.

Calhoun has worked with Tootle for three years. She said when she met him, he had a gruff exterior that you would expect from a Marine.

She called him “Master and Commander” or “Captain America.” But under that gruff exterior she found a heart of gold.

“His heart is bigger than all of us put together. He cares about others, is driven to make sure they have firewood, food, what they need. He gives and gives and gives.

“I can’t put my finger on what motivates him. He’s just an amazing human being.”

‘NUNSENSE’ AT WWCA IN PORT ORCHARD PORT ORCHARD — “Nunsense,” the second-longestrunning off-Broadway show in history, is being staged through Feb. 26 at the Western Washington Center for the Arts in Port Orchard.

“Nunsense” is a musical comedy with a book, music, and lyrics by Dan Goggin. Originating as a line of greeting cards, Goggin expanded the concept into a cabaret that ran for 38 weeks and eventually into a full-length musical.

The original off-Broadway production opened Dec. 12, 1985, running for 3,672 performances. It won four Outer Critics Circle Awards, including Best Off-Broadway Musical. It was produced as a TV movie in 1993 starring Rue McClanahan.

“Nunsense” is about a fundraiser put on by the Little Sisters of Hoboken to raise money to bury sisters accidentally poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia.

The Western Washington Center for the Arts production is updated with new jokes, additional lyrics, two new arrangements and a new song.

The center is located at 521 Bay St., Port Orchard.

“We tend to think of this as a kinder, gentler jury office than most places,”

Blackstock said.

Jury duty

Continued from page 1 feeling. Magazines, books and puzzles are neatly stacked for use. Coffee brews on the back counter.

A handwritten sign welcomes you to jury duty.

But before you confuse a visit to the juror’s office with a social call, Blackstock and Sleeth want to remind you that a summons is a legal document, not an invitation to a party. While they try to make the experience as pleasant as possible, intentionally neglecting your summons is against the law and is considered a misdemeanor.

For the system to work, it’s imperative for citizens to follow the printed instructions on their summons.

THE SUMMONS

Each week, the jury office sends out about 700 summonses to citizens. Of those 700, only about half of the recipients are able to serve on a jury. The other half will either have scheduling conflicts, childcare issues, an illness or other issues. They will need to either reschedule to a more convenient week or, if they qualify, may ask to be permanently excused.

“How was I selected?”

The pool of jurors is randomly selected from a database that is made up from voter registration and Department of Licensing information. It is possible to be summoned twice in one year if your name is different on your voter registration than on your state issued identification card or drivers license. For example, if on your voter registration you are listed as “Will Smith” but on your

driver’s license you are “William Smith,” the system will recognize you as two different people and could potentially send out two summonses.

“I received a summons.

Now what?”

Fill out the confidential juror profile and mail it back to the office, or fill out the profile online. This needs to be completed within five days of receiving the summons. The qualification questions determine your eligibility to serve on a jury. For instance, if you have been convicted of a felony and your civil rights haven't been restored, you are not qualified to serve on a jury. You are also ineligible if you cannot communicate in English, no longer reside in Kitsap, are younger than 18, or are not a U.S. citizen.

“What if I already served on a jury within the past year?”

If you have served on a state, federal or municipal jury, you may request to be excused. You will need to show evidence if you served outside of Kitsap County.

(If you served inside the county, the clerks will verify that you indeed did serve.)

Blackstock said oftentimes people’s recollections are off by a year or two. “They will tell me, ‘I know I served recently.’ And then I'll look it up and they served in 2008,” she said.

“What if I can't serve the week I am scheduled to appear?”

You can ask for a deferral and reschedule your service. You are allowed to request a deferral up to four times per year. After the fourth request, the system will not grant you a fifth deferral.

FEET FIRST

Erin Jennings / Kitsap Week

Note: Mailing summonses and reminder cards cost money. If something arises and you are no longer able to serve during your rescheduled week, call the jury office as soon as possible to rebook. Each mailed summons costs about $2.

While this is not a significant sum on an individual basis, it quickly adds up.

MYTHS AND MYSTERIES OF JURY DUTY

“If I say I’m available, I’ll have to report and sit there all week, even if I’m not needed.”

Beginning at 6 p.m. on the Friday prior to the week you are to report, you should call the jury hotline and see if you have been selected to appear on Monday. If you aren’t selected for Monday, call back again Monday evening. Again, if you aren’t selected, you call in on Tuesday evening, and so on for the week. Potentially, your group may never get called and your week of service is then complete.

If you call in and your group is scheduled to

report, you need to show up on time on your scheduled day. If you are not selected for the jury, you will have completed your service and no longer need to call in to report.

If you report for jury duty and are seated on a jury, you will serve until the trial is completed.

“I’m a senior citizen and am automatically exempt from serving as a juror.”

If you are over the age of 75, you can request to be excused or permanently disqualified. However, your age doesn’t preclude you from serving. In fact, Blackstock said some of the best jurors are those in their 70s, 80s and 90s.

“They have a sense of civic duty and patriotism and are very dependable,” she said. “We don’t discriminate on the basis of age.” (However, you must be 18 or older.)

“I can’t be away from my family overnight.”

A juror would only be required to stay away overnight if the jury was

Living with gout Gout is a type of arthritis characterized by redness, swelling, and a burning pain.

Often affecting the toes, gout is caused by a build-up of uric acid, a by-product of urate, which is naturally produced by the body and certain high-protein foods.

Your podiatrist can prescribe medication that will help prevent gout, but there are steps you can take to make it less likely to occur. Keeping your weight down will lessen the amount of pressure on your joints. Limit the amount of protein you eat. Limit your alcohol intake, as alcohol inhibits the breakdown of uric acid.

sequestered. In the 22 years that Blackstock has worked for Kitsap County’s court system, she cannot recall a time that this happened.

“I can’t afford to miss a week of work.”

The jury administration office cannot excuse people for work or financial hardships. If your group is selected to report, you must show up. However, the judge will review work and financial hardships prior to jury selection and at that time you may discuss your issue.

“I’m a police officer. I won’t be selected to serve on a jury.”

Police officers, attorneys and even judges have served on Kitsap juries.

Uniformed personnel must report for jury duty in civilian clothing.

“I’m a teacher. I can’t miss a week from my students.”

Call the jury administration office. You can reschedule your week of service during a school

break.

“If I’m summoned in Kitsap County, I will have to report to the courthouse in Port Orchard.”

Kitsap County Jury Administration provides jurors five locations across the county. If your group is selected, you will be told where to report, which may or may not be Port Orchard.

“My boss won’t allow me time off for jury duty."

Employers must respect your summons to appear.

Washington state law says, “Any employer shall provide an employee with sufficient leave of absence from employment to serve as a juror when that employee is summoned. An employer shall not deprive an employee of employment or threaten, coerce, or harass an employee, or deny an employee promotional opportunities because the employee receives a summons, serves as a juror, or attends court for prospective jury service.” (See RCW 2.36.165.)

The jury administration office can provide you with proper documentation to prove you were on jury duty.

THE INS AND OUTS OF JURY DUTY

“Will I get paid to serve?”

If you report to jury duty, you will receive $10 per day, plus mileage. Right now the mileage rate is 51 cents per mile.

“If I’m selected to serve, do I continue to call the hotline to check my group number?”

Blackstock said. “The jury should be of one’s peers, which means a wide range of citizens in your community.”

Every trial is different and every judge orders jurors differently. Some judges are confident that they can seat a jury from a pool of 35-40 potential jurors. Others want more wiggle room and will call 65. Sometimes there are weeks when the court system depletes the pool of jurors, resulting in a delay of trial.

There is no doubt about it, jurors are an important part of our judicial system.

And for the courtroom drama lovers, it’s a great way to be exposed to the real deal.

Sure, you’ve heard the legal terms “objection” and “overruled” countless times on television and in movies, but witnessing an actual courtroom scene is memorable and educational.

And that’s the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

future of art in Bremerton, Kitsap and Olympic peninsulas as well as statewide.

“Recent disruptions in the economy have stymied the Bremerton Art Commission, and one of the shows sponsors, the Kitsap County Arts Board, is struggling to build its public art program,”

Boysen said. “However, artists make art regardless of the economy, so Collective Visions Gallery and its cooperative stable of artists provide the cultural foundation for the life of this city and far beyond.”

It’s a no-brainer: If you smell smoke, call 911

I

t was supposed to cause a laugh or two, not catch our kitchen on

fire.

For my son’s birthday, we thought we’d be clever and use trick candles. You know the ones — they relight after the birthday person blows them out, causing surprise and another round of wishing.

My daughter wanted to give one a trial run before pulling the prank on her brother.

And this is where I goofed.

I wasn’t in the kitchen with her when she lit the candle.

The candle didn’t relight after she blew it out and thinking it was faulty, she tossed it into the trash underneath the sink.

But apparently it did light— just not immediately.

I’d say 10 minutes passed before she yelled, “The trash is on fire.”

Sure enough, flames leapt from under the sink, and dark smoke began to fill the kitchen.

ASK ERIN

By ERIN JENNINGS My husband and I grabbed the nearby fire extinguisher, and with shaky hands and beating hearts, extinguished the fire.

The plastic trash can melted onto the cabinet floor, leaving globs of hardened plastic. The inside of the cabinet door is scorched. But other than that, the fire didn’t cause much damage.

But, oh, there could have been.

My mind can’t help but play “what if ” games.

What if my daughter left the kitchen and didn’t notice the fire? How long would it have taken for the

smoke alarms to sound?

What if we went out to dinner, like we originally planned?

Let’s revisit where I goofed.

Growing up, whenever I was asked to light the dining room candles, I used old-fashioned matches. I was taught that after blowing out the match, I needed to run it under water, listening for the telltale sound of the “Hsssss.”

My daughter, who has lit numerous candles, has always used a butane lighter.

With a click of a button, the flame appears and disappears. She didn’t know to place recently lit items under water.

I should have taught her that.

And I should have been in the same room with her as she handled an open flame.

All this got me thinking about fire safety so I contacted Assistant Chief Luke Carpenter, fire marshal for the Bainbridge Fire Department, for advice.

FIRE EXTINGUISHERS

There are three categories of fire. Class A involves paper, wood and trash.

Class B involves flammable liquids and grease. Class C fires are electrical.

When purchasing fire extinguishers for the home, Carpenter recommends buying the all-purpose kind that can handle all classes of fire.

He also recommends having at least two allpurpose fire extinguishers.

He suggested keeping one in the kitchen and one in the garage.

Good to know: Residential extinguishers are for single use. Once you use the extinguisher, you need to purchase another one.

SMOKE DETECTORS

Carpenter called smoke detectors the “cheapest insurance you can buy” and said they should be installed inside and outside of every bedroom. Newly constructed homes have strict codes regarding sufficient detectors. Older homes may only have one and in extreme cases, Carpenter has seen homes with

none at all. And that is just not safe.

At around $12 each, smoke detectors can alert you to smoke and fire, giving you precious time to exit the house safely.

Good to know: Change batteries in smoke detectors at least once a year.

As an easy reminder, the Bainbridge Fire Department recommends “Change your clock, change your batteries” to coincide with daylight saving time. And by all means, if your detector begins to “chirp,” change the battery.

EXIT PLAN

Statistics show the visibility in a house can go from crystal clear to practically zero visibility in a matter of a couple of minutes. It’s important to practice an exit drill with your family. To simulate intense smoke, Carpenter recommends blindfolding family members and having them crawl out.

Good to know: Most homes have an abundance of plastic. Burning plastic gives off dark smoke, causing poor visibility and

toxic vapors. Carpenter said the increase of plastics in the home has caused more deaths due to smoke inhalation than from pervious generations. This makes practicing an exit drill even more important.

CALL 911

This is a no-brainer, but if your house is on fire, call 911.

Good to know: Carpenter said even though we extinguished the fire ourselves, we still should have called the fire department.

The reason? Sometimes fire can get into little areas not easily visible. The fire department knows what to look for and is specially equipped to make sure the fire is completely out.

When I said, “But I didn’t want to be a bother,” Carpenter replied, “Call us. We live to be bothered.”

Hamilton Cellars finds a delicious niche NW WINES

BY ANDY PERDUE AND ERIC DEGERMAN

Wine Press Northwest

A

fter a couple of false starts, Hamilton Cellars in Richland got rolling a year ago — and is already releasing startlingly superb wines.

Russ and Stacie Hamilton began thinking about opening their namesake winery a half-decade ago and worked on creating a wine village in the heart of Washington wine country.

They purchased land for their idea, and that’s where the problems began. The city of West Richland sold land to the Hamiltons, who began moving forward with their concept. Unfortunately, the city didn’t own the land — the Bureau of Land Management did, and BLM wasn’t selling.

The Hamiltons found land in nearby Kennewick, but the bank wouldn’t loan them money because of pending litigation over the first piece of land.

In the meantime, the city of Richland changed some zoning laws to allow tasting rooms inside city limits, so the Hamiltons used a building they already owned that wasn’t far from three other wineries. And in January 2011, Hamilton Cellars opened.

The Hamiltons are savvy business people, with Russ

“The first year has been a real learning experience. Until you’re actually in it, you can’t know.”

— Stacie Hamilton, co-owner, Hamilton Cellars

the chief technology officer for the world’s largest solar company in China and Stacie running a wealthmanagement firm. But it took them several months to get a handle on the wine industry.

“The first year has been a real learning experience,” Stacie said. “Until you’re actually in it, you can’t know.

It’s been a busy, interesting year.”

Hamilton started on the right foot by hiring Charlie Hoppes as its winemaker.

Hoppes was the red winemaker for Chateau Ste. Michelle before moving on to Three Rivers Winery in 1999 and later his own Fidelitas Wines on Red Mountain.

Because Fidelitas is focused heavily on Cabernet Sauvignon, the Hamiltons decided to look for a differ-

ent niche, and they chose wisely with Malbec, which has recently become one of the hottest “new” wine varieties in Washington.

“We loved Malbec from the first one we tried,” Stacie said.

Under the Hamilton label, Hoppes makes a straight Malbec, a rosé of Malbec and a Malbecbased blend. Additionally, he crafts Cab, Merlot and a Semillon-Viognier blend for the Hamiltons.

Hamilton Cellars has grown to about 2,000 cases already, and Stacie sees it topping out around 10,000 in the future — if and when Russ ever retires. He spends about six months of the year in China, which leaves Stacie in charge of the winery.

“It’s my baby,” she said.

“He was supposed to have retired by now, but we Skype and text every day to discuss major decisions about the winery.”

Such is life in this era of technology and global flattening.

Earlier this year, Hamilton began to distribute its wines in the Seattle area, so check with your favorite merchant or call the winery directly at (509) 628-8227.
