POULSBO — Anderson Parkway could someday be a park, its asphalt replaced by grass, with visitors parking offsite in a parking structure.

But that’s in the future. In the meantime, the city will replace the cracking asphalt in the parkway and add rain gardens to filter tainted stormwater runoff before it reaches Liberty Bay. The City Council considered four options Wednesday and chose the one least favored by downtown businesses, what council members called the “tear off the Band Aid approach”: Repave the entire parkway, and do it in October when weather is less likely to cause delays.

Downtown business owners asked at a workshop two days earlier for the work to be done in January, when business is slowest.

Parking will be reconfigured to add two or three parking spaces and areas to load and unload. Additional lighting will be installed. Dumpsters will be relocated. Currently, there are 197 parking spaces; the project will result in 199.

3 Miller Bay homes hit with obscene, racist graffiti

By KIPP ROBERTSON

krobertson@northkitsapherald. com

KINGSTON — Three homes in Miller Bay Estates were the targets of graffiti, two of them with obscene or racially derogatory messages.

The homes, located in

the neighborhoods off Beachwood Avenue, were all apparently tagged with the same dark green spray paint, according to a report from the Kitsap County Sheriff 's Department.

There were no suspects as of Thursday morning, Kitsap County Sheriff 's

spokesperson Deputy Scott Wilson said.

A call to law enforcement Tuesday morning regarding a racially derogatory message written on a home brought the sheriff ’s department to the area. The graffitied slur, estimated to cost $500 to repair, is thought to

be directed at a neighbor, who is African American, according to the report.

Neighbors were upset by the graffiti. One neighbor, in tears, declined to talk to the press. Another neighbor had moved her van in front of her house to block the racially derogatory mes-

sage.

Following the initial call, the responding deputy found graffiti at two homes on Seavista Drive with the same paint, on a garage door and on a fence.

Though he could not immediately say if graffiti has been a problem in

Miller Bay, Wilson did note graffiti was a problem last year, when signs around Kingston were tagged with “lurk” and other tags.

“It has been an issue recently in Kingston,” Wilson said.

‘Keeping Communities Safe’ meeting Saturday Public meetings POULSBO — Mayor Becky Erickson and County Commissioner Rob Gelder host a public meeting, Keeping Communities Safe, on Saturday, 1-3 p.m., in the City Council chambers at City Hall.

Erickson scheduled the meeting after the series of unrelated deadly incidents in Kitsap County in February.

Several agencies will participate, including Poulsbo

Police Department, Poulsbo Fire Department, and CenCom, which operates the 911 dispatch center.

At the meeting, residents and leaders will discuss the following topics: n Keeping Safe in your Home. n Block Watch. n When to call 911. n Emergency Preparedness.

In February, a Poulsbo man was shot and killed

by police, an 8-year-old was shot and critically injured at a Bremerton school by a handgun in a classmate’s backpack, and a Washington State Patrol officer was murdered; the suspect later committed suicide.

Also that month, a Poulsbo man admitted shooting and killing his friend, a state park ranger died in a headon collision, and a woman was struck and killed by a car in Poulsbo.

Harrison threatened with Medicare termination Bremerton-based hospital has 10 days to submit a plan of correction

By KIPP ROBERTSON

krobertson@northkitsapherald.com

BREMERTON — Following a complaint by a former patient, Harrison Medical Center may soon lose its participation in the Medicare program.

A letter dated March 15 to Harrison CEO Scott

Bosch, states the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) found the hospital failed to enforce policies to ensure compliance with the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act and failed to provide an appropriate medical screening examination.

Unless a plan of correction is submitted to and accepted by CMS, the hospital's Medicare program will be terminated.

According to the letter, it is recommended the plan of correction is submitted "no

later than April 14, 2012.

The plan of correction must be submitted to both CMS and state survey agency.

The investigation into the hospital’s practices followed a complaint by Joseph and Debra Snowden to the Department of Health & Human Services. The Snowdens were taken to Harrison after a car crash on Hansville Road Dec. 30. After being treated at Harrison, Mrs. Snowden had to have an emergency operation four days later because she was bleeding

internally and had four broken ribs and a fractured sternum. Mr. Snowden had a smashed right foot, which was not recognized, he said.

He later had reconstructive surgery.

“My wife almost died,” Mr. Snowden said. “Had we not returned, the surgeon told me she would have died that night.”

The Snowdens are selfemployed. Their medical bill is about $200,000, Mr. Snowden said. The couple has not been able to work since December after the

collision, and are “getting around by the graces of our friends.” Mr. Snowden said it is now his mission to spread the word about his experience. He won’t stop until somebody is found accountable, he said.

“I’m not going to sit here and get s… on,” he said.

“Something needs to be done.”

Harrison Medical Center was surveyed Feb. 8 by the Washington Department of Health based on an allegation of non-compliance with requirements of 42 Code of

City applying for roadway improvement funds POULSBO — The City of Poulsbo will apply for grant funding through the Puget Sound Regional Council for roadway, pedestrian, bicyclist and maintenance improvements to Lincoln Road, Bond Road, and Hostmark, 7th and 8th avenues.

Roadway improvements to Lincoln Road from Laurie Vei Loop to Noll Road will cost an estimated $2.6 million.

On Lincoln Road from Laurie Vei Loop to Pugh Road, offroad improvements include pervious asphalt bike lanes, landscaped raingardens, and pervious concrete sidewalk on the east side of the road.

On Lincoln Road from Pugh Road to Noll Road, offroad improvements include a landscaped raingarden, 12-foot shared-use path and lighting on the east

side of the road.

The pedestrian and bicyclist improvements will cost an estimated $795,737.

Roadway improvements elsewhere would cost $632,758: Bond Road from State Route 305 to Lindvig, Hostmark Avenue from Noll to Caldart, 7th Avenue from Iverson to Liberty, and 8th Avenue from Lincoln to 7th Avenue.

Regional Council, or PSRC, is a regional planning organization that develops policies and makes decisions about transportation planning, economic development and growth management in the four-county area surrounding Puget Sound: King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish counties. It is a forum for cities, towns, counties, transit agencies, port districts, tribal govern-

ments and state agencies to address common regional issues. The PSRC was created in 1991 by an interlocal agreement among the region’s jurisdictions.

The council is governed by elected officials from its member government agencies.

According to an online bio, the largest portion of funding for the PSRC’s activities, about 74 percent, is provided by the federal

Federal Regulations.

Because the notice has not been made public, CMS could not comment Wednesday, except to confirm that Harrison was placed on a termination track, CMS employee Stephanie Magill said.

Calls to Harrison officials were not returned by press time.

If the hospital does lose its Medicare coverage, the hospital will receive a “Notice of Termination” letter no later than May 29, according to a letter to Bosch. cent is from dues paid by PSRC members, and the remaining 6 percent is from state grants.

IN OUR OPINION

Handing out some roses and thorns R

oses to Patrice Page, incoming superintendent of North Kitsap schools. The 1972 North Kitsap High School graduate returns home to guide the district through some challenging times: Declining enrollment, tightening budgets, a school closure. She’s well suited for the job.

Roses to the superintendent search committee, which played a big role in recruiting candidates for the North Kitsap School District superintendency. The school board hoped to save some money by using a citizens committee instead of a superintendent recruitment firm, and a consultant was ultimately deemed necessary. Consultant Mike Boring said he’d recommend it to other districts.

“The committee provided a great deal of assistance and support,” Boring said. “Their involvement allowed us as consultants to touch more people, and their involvement gave the board an additional set of eyes, which was an extremely helpful thing for the board. It could work elsewhere.”

Roses to Rep. Norm Dicks, for his service as 6th District representative. Dicks is retiring after 36 years in the U.S. House of Representatives, where he’s 10th in seniority.

The district and the region has benefitted from Dicks’ seniority in the House. He serves on appropriations subcommittees for Defense, Interior and Environment -- positions of oversight on our nation’s national parks, national forests, the environment, veterans, and defense, all of which are of great importance to the 6th District.

Removal of the Elwha and Glines dams. Protection of wildlife.

Restoration of forests and protection of clean water sources.

It’s going to take a lot of effort to restore 150 years of degradation to our natural environment. Because of Dicks’ service, we’re better equipped to turn the tide.

Thorns to Rep. Jay Inslee. We didn’t mind that he was running for governor of Washington; his candidacy was as expected as Rob McKenna’s. But leaving his responsibilities in Congress to do so? It was a dumb move politically. And it was bad for residents of the 1st District, who are unrepresented in the U.S. House of Representatives.

There’s the matter of commitment: He was elected by 1st District representatives to speak for them in Washington, D.C., and debate continues on issues ranging from Afghanistan to health care. That commitment shouldn’t wither in the face of personal ambition. And there’s the matter of being there to vote. As Danny Westneat pointed out in a recent Seattle Times column, the House came within six votes of pulling troops out of Afghanistan last year, and “Inslee was among those voting to bring them home – along with 25 Republicans.”

Inslee could have, and should have, stayed in Congress during his candidacy for governor.

ONLINE POLL Q: Facing the end of his term, Poulsbo Port Commissioner Arnie Bockus voted to appoint himself to another Port Commission position, a conflict of interest. Should he resign and the appointment be redone?

As of Thursday, 8:30 a.m. on NorthKitsapHerald. com: Yes: 90.9 percent No: 9.1 percent

LETTERS Helping hand for OC students On behalf of the Olympic College Foundation board of directors, I would like to publicly express our thanks and appreciation to the more than 200 community members who participated as guests and volunteers at our annual auction and brunch at Anthony’s Sinclair Inlet and the Kitsap Conference Center on March 4.

Over the past five years, the Olympic College Foundation’s annual event at Anthony’s has generated more than $230,000 in support of Olympic College programs and students. These funds have provided critically needed support for students in the form of scholarships, textbook purchase assistance, and student educational emergency support.

We are doing our part to stretch the dollars raised as far as possible in order to help the largest possible number of students, because we know that this assistance can often make the difference to keep a student in school and on the path to economic self-sufficiency. We appreciate the way the community has stood with us in this important goal.

We are especially grateful to Anthony’s for continuing their support of our annual event despite these challenging economic times.

They prepared a fabulous brunch and provided excellent service for all of our guests. It was a pleasure working with Anthony’s General Manager John Heidt and his outstanding team.

Upon learning that all of the Anthony’s employees at the fund-

raiser volunteered their time to serve our guests, our scholarship students were moved by the fact that community members cared so much about helping them reach their educational goals. Scholarship recipient Fernando Libor summed it up, saying, “When I learned the Anthony’s employees were all volunteers, I could not believe it … that there were so many people who were willing to get up so early and to work so hard and cheerfully at the event to help OC students, whom they had never even met.”

We would also like to recognize Ken Millsap and the Kitsap Conference Center staff for their assistance in helping us to plan and execute the event activities. They were an excellent partner with us, as they have been every year since

the inception of this event.

To everyone, please accept our deepest appreciation for your support.

On behalf of the Olympic College Foundation, Shannon L. Childs, president Olympic College Foundation

Thank you for show of caring and support So many organizations came forward to honor or son, brother and father, Ed Johanson.

We wish to thank Kitsap Fire & Rescue, Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office, Washington State Patrol, Washington State Parks, Behind the Badge Foundation, Mt. View See LETTERS, Page A5

Traditional foods are at the center of our cultures BEING FRANK T hese short, cold, rainy and sometimes snowy days of winter always make me think about our treaties. It was during this time of year more than 150 years ago that the U.S. government negotiated most of its treaties with tribes here in western Washington.

The federal government wanted our homeland.

They viewed us as sovereign nations with independent authority to govern our people, lands and resources.

We were treated the same as any free nation in the world because that’s what we were then and still are today.

Through the treaties we reserved the things that were most important to us as a people. Among them was the right to fish, hunt and gather shellfish and other traditional foods to feed ourselves and preserve our cultures.

That’s why I am excited about the new hunting department at the Puyallup Tribe of Indians. It’s aimed at strengthening the tribe’s traditional connection to wildlife by improving hunter access to deer, elk and other game for tribal members to

eat. The tribe also is promoting hunting by educating young people.

Wildlife habitat in western Washington is disappearing rapidly. Deer, elk and other wildlife are being crowded into smaller and smaller areas in the remaining good habitat, making it difficult for tribal members to exercise their treaty hunting rights.

If we lose our ability to hunt, we lose an important source of traditional food, and we can’t afford to do that. Indian people evolved eating traditional foods like elk, salmon, clams and berries. These are the foods that are best for our bodies.

That’s why part of the hunting department’s mission is to help connect tribal members with sources for game meat. Tribal hunters hunt for food, not for sport.

They traditionally hunt not

only for themselves, but for their extended families. It’s common for tribes to designate hunters to harvest wildlife for ceremonies, as well as for tribal elders and others who are unable to hunt for themselves.

Helping tribal members incorporate more traditional foods in their diets is also the goal of the Food Sovereignty Program at Northwest Indian College’s campus on the Muckleshoot

Tribe’s reservation near Auburn. Food sovereignty is the right of people to eat healthy traditional foods that are produced sustainably and don’t harm the environment.

The program grew from a project by the Muckleshoot, Tulalip and Suquamish tribes and the Burke Museum at the University of Washington. The museum developed a list of traditional foods that Indian people ate before non-Indians arrived in western Washington. The Food Sovereignty program helps tribal members make those foods — such as nettles, camas, huckleberries, salmon and wild game — part of their everyday lives.

The project reminds us that to have traditional foods, we must continue to be good natural resources managers. Our treaties recognize that food is at the center of our cultures. Indian tribes are sovereign nations, with friends, family and the community. We are forever grateful for the thoughtful donations and heart-warming support.

Thank you.

and part of that sovereignty includes access to the traditional foods needed to keep ourselves and our communities healthy and strong.

Bucs looking solid KINGSTON — There’s not much for coach Joe Schiel to say about his 2012 Kingston fastpitch team.

The pitching is solid.

There’s no fear at the plate.

“It’s a good solid team,” Schiel said. “As long as they stay together like they’re doing, I think they’ll do just fine.”

The Bucs are coming off a 11-1 win against North Mason on Wednesday, a game which showed what a team can do when everyone

is playing on the same page.

Schiel said the team “lucked out” a couple of times and did a good job of turning Bulldog mistakes into outs.

On top of that, Schiel, before seeing the final stats card, said the Bucs may have finished the game with few or no errors.

“Life is good, isn’t it,” Schiel said while he laughed, following the game. “Life is good.”

S’KLALLAM YOUTH NEED COMMUNITY HELP TO WIN GRANT LITTLE BOSTON — A Port Gamble S’Klallam youth leadership group has been named as a finalist for the Sheckler Foundation’s “Be the Change” grant.

S’Klallam’s Working and Giving (SWAG) has created the campaign “Skate to Create” to bring a skate park to Port Gamble S’Klallam reservation with this national grant, which is designed to support a project that would positively affect the lives of youth in their community.

Winners of the Sheckler

Foundation grant are chosen via online poll at http:// www.schecklerfoundation. org/be-the-change-vote/.

People can vote once a day through March 28.

SWAG is made up of S’Klallam youth, age 11 to 18, who are working to improve the tribal community by increasing recreational activities for young people and their families.

The remote location of the reservation on the Kitsap Peninsula results in few opportunities for recreation and entertainment.

With an increase in awareness among youth for the need to live healthy, active lifestyles there’s been a boom in participation with the S’Klallam youth center and extracurricular sports, namely skateboarding, inline skating and biking.

“Being able to build a safe place for youth and the community will not only encourage healthy activities, but will also give the kids involved a sense of pride,” Deputy Director of Tribal Services Kelly Baze said.

“It will also help them real-

If SWAG wins the Scheckler Foundation grant, they will use the money to restore an area that was once a park, which already includes the only outdoor basketball court on the reservation. The rest of the area will be used to build a skate park.

The Port Gamble S’Klallam Tribe, originally known as the Nux Sklai Yem or Strong People, are descendants of the Salish people who have been wellestablished in the Puget Sound basin and surrounding areas since 2400 B.C. In the late 1930s, the Port Gamble S’Klallam reservation, located on the northern tip of the Kitsap Peninsula in Washington

State, was established. Many of the Tribe’s members, who total about twelve hundred, still live there today.

Blue Heron Celebrates Spring!

Staff of Blue Heron Jewelry Co. in Downtown Poulsbo handed out fresh daffodils adorned with money-saving coupons to unsuspecting pedestrians, shoppers and other businesses on the first day of spring last Tuesday. A trademark of Pike Place Market, flower vendors herald spring by giving out the First Flowers of the Season, a tradition in which Blue Heron wanted to bring to Poulsbo. Hundreds of flowers in hand were seen downtown, bringing out smiles- and some sun- on an otherwise blustery day. By mid-day, other residents of Poulsbo brought bunches of daffodils from their gardens to the store to be handed out, proving that a simple act of kindness, like the daffodils, can germinate and grow.

PORT OF POULSBO Committee will provide input on port comp plan

com/COMPREHENSIVE_ PLAN_Final.pdf.

POULSBO — The Poulsbo Port Commission will appoint a committee to provide input on possible changes to the port’s Comprehensive Plan.

The port wants a crosssection of the port district community represented, among them business, Historic Downtown Poulsbo Association, fishing, and guest and permanent moorage.

Chairman Tony deCarlo said people interested in serving on the committee should contact the port office, or come to the commission’s April 5 meeting, 7 p.m., in the Multipurpose Room on E Dock.

The updated Comprehensive Plan will outline the port’s goals through 2018.

Many of the goals relate to improvement of facilities and operations. The port is also exploring the possibility of land acquisition in the immediate vicinity of the port.

To read the port’s 200612 Comprehensive Plan, visit http://portofpoulsbo.

Lawyer expresses interest in serving on Port Commission POULSBO — Stephen L. Swann, a Poulsbo lawyer, has submitted a letter to the Port of Poulsbo expressing interest in serving on the commission should a position open.

Swann’s letter comes after a state attorney general’s opinion that Commissioner Arnie Bockus could not have been appointed to a vacancy representing Position 2 before his term as Position 3 representative had expired.

In addition, the Herald — which endorsed Bockus in the Nov. 8 general election — has said he should resign and the appointment be redone. In two editorials, the Herald cited a 1909 court ruling that bars Bockus from voting on his own appointment, and another state law requiring the position be filled by the County Commission.

At the port commission meeting Monday, Bockus showed no signs of resign-

ing. He shook the Herald editor’s hand and said, “Good editorials,” and participated in discussions about the port’s comprehensive plan.

Swann said he moved here 41/2 months ago from Arlington, Va., and wants to get involved in the community. He’s a lawyer and a retired Coast Guard officer.

He lives on the 18000 block of Fjord Drive.

Of Bockus’ appointment, he said, “I’m aware of the issues. I don’t know the players. It’s become quite emotional, and I’m not sure if there’s objectivity at this point.”

New recording secretary for Port Commission POULSBO — Andrea Nix has resigned as recording secretary of the Poulsbo Port Commission. The commission on Monday appointed Jonathan Davis to the position. Davis is a seasonal employee who works at the fuel dock and in the guest moorage office.

Commission Chairman Tony deCarlo said Nix resigned citing the volume of work, which involves transcribing minutes of port commission meetings. The recording secretary is paid $100 a meeting and receives additional pay for other work, such as research, DeCarlo said.

The port commission usually meets on the first and third Thursday of each month, 7 p.m., in the multipurpose room on E Dock, 18809 Front St. The meetings are open to the public.

Fire destroys shed being used as temporary housing GAMBLEWOOD — A man lost his temporary housing when a shed on a vacant lot was consumed by flames – thought to have been sparked by an unattended candle – Tuesday morning in the Gamblewood neighborhood between Kingston

and Poulsbo.

Crews from North Kitsap Fire & Rescue and Poulsbo Fire Department were called to the Webb Circle address at 8:23 a.m. after the building’s occupant returned from a brief visit to a neighbor’s home to find

the 6 by 10 structure ablaze.

He removed his motorcycle from the building and called 911.

The first unit to arrive on scene was there in just under seven minutes, and found the shed fully involved in flames. Because

of the structure’s small size and the fact that the flames weren’t threatening neighboring buildings, crews canceled the additional units coming from Poulsbo.

Firefighters were able to quickly snuff the fire using just the water from the fire

engine’s tank (500 gallons) and set about extinguishing hot spots. The man told crews that the shed is not served by electrical power and that he’d run out of propane several days earlier. He added that he’d been using a pillar candle for light, and

that it had been in close proximity to his makeshift bed’s blankets.

It appears that the candle caused the fire, according to North Kitsap Fire & Rescue spokeswoman Michele Laboda.

Continued from page A1 session; Scott Henden was the sole vote in opposition to her. Before voting, he said Page wasn't his first choice but that "I'll do my best to work with her and endorse her." Asked after the vote for his reasons for voting against Page's hire, he said, "My job at this point is to support her. I'm sure she'll do a great job."

Next comes the contract negotiation, including salary and length of contract.

Jones, who has a doctorate with 30 years of experience in education, earns $140,000. Page, who has a master’s degree with 30 years of experience in education, earns $118,811 as Coupeville superintendent.

Contacted at her Coupeville home, Page — a graduate of North Kitsap High School — said she wasn't job hunting when she received the job notice for the North Kitsap superintendency. Her current dis-

trict is "an amazing place," she said, but her mom lives here and the community mix and district's challenges fit her.

The challenges in North Kitsap — declining enrollment, strained budgets — "really matched a lot of my skill sets," she said. She's worked in communities with large Native American and Mexican American populations, and she grew up in a Navy family. "It seemed like a good match," she said of North Kitsap.

As superintendent, Page will have some challenges coming out of the starting gate. The school board formed a committee to study closing an elementary school, and students and teachers from the closed school will likely start the 2012-13 school year at other sites. The district is involved in a pilot program to test a new state-approved system for evaluating teachers and principals. And the district continues to tighten its belt because of declines in enrollment and money

from the state.

"It's hard to say from this perspective why North Kitsap is losing students," she said. "We have to look at it and see if there's a way we can recapture those students. North Kitsap has some great programs — vocational classes, AP classes. Those things need to be sold" to students who have left.

Page's selection is the culmination of a process that began somewhat controversially last fall. Rather than go the usual route and hire a superintendent recruitment firm, the school board, in an attempt to save money, instead put the process in the hands of an appointed citizens committee. The school board later decided to hire a consulting firm to help the committee, which found itself with applications from about 100 candidates.

The finalists visited North Kitsap for community meetings, and school board and search committee members visited the finalists' dis-

N O R T H

tricts.

Consultant Mike Boring said he hadn't worked with a search committee before, but said Monday he'd recommend it to other districts.

"The committee provided a great deal of assistance and support," Boring said.

"Their involvement allowed us as consultants to touch more people, and their involvement gave the board an additional set of eyes, which was an extremely helpful thing for the board.

It could work elsewhere."

School board member Bill Webb said the committee's work showed just how much the community cares about its schools. He said the committee gave the school board "three really good candidates" as finalists, and he was pleased with the selection of Page.

Visited school district March 5 During her visit to North Kitsap, Page said that, despite budget cuts and declining

enrollment in the North Kitsap School District, she believes district staff members should not lose sight of student achievement.

Page knows the district faces further budget reductions next year, along with declining enrollment, which will affect the amount of state funding the district receives. However, Page said the district has “some amazing things going on.”

“Never lose sight of students and the focus that they are the most important thing,” she said during a community meeting March 5.

Page said she knows the difficulties of balancing a budget.

Coupeville, which had a student population of 1,039 in May 2011, cut about $1.2 million from its budget for the 2011-12 school year.

The Whidbey NewsTimes reported Tuesday that Page “led the 970-student school district during a time when leaders had to make significant cutbacks due to budget woes, while

still providing an education program that has earned state recognition for performance on test scores.”

If the district is going to reduce a program’s funding, Page said it’s necessary to try and “back-fill” it — provide the same services in another way.

“It would be painful,” Page said. “But it’s doable and the heart and passion is here to make it work.”

According to her LinkedIn page, Page earned an undergraduate degree in history at Pacific Lutheran University in 1976, her graduate degree in special education at Western Washington University in 1981, and her superintendent credential at Washington State University in 2000.

She taught in Clover Park from 1976-1983. She was vice principal in Post Falls, Gig Harbor and Sunnyside through 1993, middle school principal in East Valley until 1999, assistant superintendent in Kelso until 2007, and superintendent in Coupeville.

Parkway

Sandy Kolbeins of the Historic Downtown Poulsbo Association, shares his concerns about the Anderson Parkway project’s potential impacts on downtown businesses.

Continued from page A1 Besides filtering stormwater, the project will improve traffic circulation, landscaping and lighting. “It will be more attractive and more functional,” said Phil Struck of the engineering firm Parametrix.

The work is expected to take 30 days, and the parkway will be closed while the work is done. The project will cost $330,000, of which $270,000 is a grant. The city will spend an additional $40,000 on lighting.

Motorists will be directed by signage to parking on King Olav, City Hall, the Parks and Recreation Building, and the Lutheran Church.

Mayor Becky Erickson said although the water in Liberty Bay is getting cleaner, the water going into Liberty Bay is not.

The city is under mandate from the state Department of Ecology to reduce the fecal coliform and oil that makes its way into Liberty Bay. Sampling of water from the Anderson Parkway storm drain in 2009 revealed fecal coliform — bacteria from animal waste — at 14,200 cfu/ml, or colonyforming units per milliliter. The standard is 50. In addition, the equivalent of a 50-gallon drum of oil and grease washes into Liberty Bay each year.

The parking surface will be repaved so that stormwater is directed to raingardens, where the water can filter before it goes into the bay.

Businesses supported other options, such as doing the work in phases or repaving only the road surface that is deteriorated.

Page A13

Richard Walker / Herald

The roadway nearest Muriel Iverson Williams Memorial Park is most deteriorated, and City Engineer Andrezj Kasiniak said if it is not repaved water could seep below the surface and undermine the roadway.

Tammy Mattson, owner of Tizley’s and Hare & Hounds, said the city has had a net gain of parking outside of Anderson Parkway, and recommended the city take advantage of that and extending the park 40 feet – removing the most degraded area of the parking lot.

Downtown property owner Bill Austin – a longtime advocate of a pedestrian-only Front Street — said he would meet Thursday with a grant writer to begin looking for funding for a downtown parking structure. He said he supports forming a Local Improvement District to help pay for development of a parking structure.

The idea of making Anderson Parkway a park and building a parking structure elsewhere is tak-

ing root. Councilwoman Connie Lord pushed for the minimum amount of work to be at Anderson Parkway so the city could focus its resources on expanding the park and building a parking structure, which she believes is the best long-term alternative for the environment and movement of pedestrians.

“It may not happen for a long time, (but we need to) signal that it is our intent to have a solution now rather than later,” she said.

Erickson said she will begin hosting a series of community meetings in May on the future expansion of the park and building of a parking structure. But she warned that the problem of tainted stormwater runoff was immediate, and said after the meeting that rain gardens could be expected elsewhere in the city.

Council members Gary Nystul and Ed Stern agreed that the issue at hand is not park development, but water quality.

“Water quality needs to be addressed, and the money is

there,” Nystul said. He said the condition of the park-

way, with its poor roadway condition and inadequate lighting, reflects on the community. “Paving the whole thing makes sense.”

Stern said, “This is a stormwater problem. This is not a parking problem.

We have a mandate to do something about runoff into Liberty Bay. The project was approved 4-2, with Lord and Linda Berry-Maraist opposed.

David Musgrove was absent.

Bo Blakey, owner of Cups Espresso and Modern Mercantile, said after the meeting that signage will be key to helping motorists find parking during the project. But he is skeptical.

“They’re trying to change people’s behavior,” he said.

He preferred that the work be done in February, during the slow season, rather than October. “My greatest fear is they run into a snag,” he said.

Honors Bofinger, CWU team headed to ROTC ‘Super Bowl’ TACOMA — Brianna Bofinger of Poulsbo was an alternate on the Central Washington University Army ROTC unit that defeated Gonzaga ROTC to earn a spot in the Sandhurst Competition, April 20-21, at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point.

On March 3, CWU and Gonzaga squared off in a series of nine events at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. CWU won seven events outright: physical fitness, land navigation, marksmanship under pressure, military strategy, rope-bridge building, communication, and overall time. The competition also tested skills in first aid and boat movement.

CWU’s victory officially positions it as the best Army ROTC unit in the 8th Brigade, which encompasses programs in eight western states and the Pacific Rim. “Our cadets trained hard and it showed,” training officer Major Jay Cook said, adding that cadets were further evaluated on how long it took to complete tasks and how well they completed them.

The Sandhurst Competition will involve teams from CWU and seven other ROTC units nationwide, six American universities, the U.S. Air Force Academy, the Naval Academy, United Services Military Apprenticeship Program, and international squads from Afghanistan, Australia, Chile, Spain and Taiwan.

Tibbs

Continued from page A1 to Republican Jan Angel, 58,932 to 51,221.

County commissioners are elected for four years.

They are paid $109,907 per year; they approve laws, set policies and manage a $325 million budget.

The party is emboldened

by Tibbs’ performance in the Nov. 8 general election and by the chance to win two of three seats on the County Commission.

“How can you be happy with a county government that is in permanent three-day weekend mode,” asked Jack Hamilton, chairman of the Kitsap County Republican Party. “Our county government worries more about trails worry than we do about cops,” he said, adding that county government’s state-mandated responsibilities are land use, law and justice, and roads.

“It would be nice if county government worried more about economic development than taking away private property,” he said, referring to policies involving development setbacks and buffers near critical areas.

“It would be nice if county government didn’t balance the budget by cutting government back. What kind of approach is that? Taxes don’t stop on Friday. Maybe if we didn’t pay taxes on Friday, it would be OK.” That’s what Tibbs is preaching: Restore the county’s focus on a balanced

NorthKitsapHerald.com

budget; on law and justice, land use and roads; and a Monday through Friday schedule in county offices.

Much of what Gibbs promoted in 2011 is part of his platform this year: n County government needs to reprioritize its services. Seventy percent of the population lives in unincorporated Kitsap County, and the critical issues there are law and justice, roads and land use, he said. (The county’s jurisdiction could become more rural if residents of urban Silverdale vote to create Kitsap’s fifth city.) n Consolidation of district and municipal courts would eliminate “overduplication” of services because district and municipal courts have the same authority. n There needs to be more balance between environmental protection and development rights. Last year, regarding changes to the Shoreline Master Program, which regulates development and other uses in shoreline areas, he supported grandfathering properties that would be considered “non-conforming” under new development rules. If a house is listed as non-conforming — meaning it doesn’t conform to current codes — a buyer could have trouble getting financing, and a property owner won’t get a permit for site improvements.

“We need to keep Kitsap rural as best we can, but we have to balance that with respect for individual property rights,” he said at the

time. n He believes county commissioners could focus on county business and be more accessible to the public if they delegated representation on area boards. Besides his responsibilities as commissioner, Gelder serves on the Kitsap Health District board, CenCom Policy Board, Hood Canal Coordinating Council, Housing Kitsap, Kitsap County Emergency Management Council, Kitsap County Lodging Tax Committee, Kitsap Regional Coordinating Council, Kitsap Transit, North Kitsap Conservation Project, Washington State Association of Counties board, and Washington State Council on Aging.

Likewise, Garrido serves on 14 boards; District 3 Commissioner Josh Brown serves on seven.

The primary legislative powers of county commissioners are found in RCW 36.32.120. The powers include: construction and maintenance of public buildings; granting licenses; fixing and collecting the tax levies for the county; authorizing payments owed by the county and auditing all officers having control of county money; managing county property and county funds; prosecuting and defending all actions for and against the county; and making and enforcing by appropriate resolutions and law all such police and sanitary regulations not in conflict with state law.

Gelder, 45, said Tibbs’

Page A15

candidacy was “not unexpected.”

Gelder, chairman of the commission this year, announced his candidacy Feb. 28. Garrido announced her candidacy earlier in the month.

Gelder said his year in office has been a productive one. “I’ve been able to work with the community to realize their dreams and aspirations,” he said.

He’s an advocate for the Kitsap Forest and Bay Project, an effort to acquire 7,000 acres of North Kitsap forest land and shoreline from Pope Resources for use as public open space and trails. “It’s an environmental asset, but also a tourism and economic development and quality of life asset that will make North Kitsap all that more desirable a place to live and build a business,” he said.

Last summer, he helped work out a compromise on construction of the proposed boat launch at Point No Point.

Gelder said he and the commission have been working to make government more accessible. The county will begin using the SMARTgov software system in May, which will enable the public to file permit applications online and track the progress of their permit. Gelder said SMARTgov will give residents more empowerment in the permit process. He said building inspections are done five days a week.

The county is looking at flex schedules and other mea-

sures to increase the number of days various agencies are open to the public.

Gelder said the commission is already looking at delegating some of its responsibilities on local boards, but noted that it makes sense for a commissioner to be involved if the county has a financial responsibility for the service provided.

Tibbs, 31, is sales manager for Ootopia Coffee Roasters. He dropped out of Bainbridge Island High School his junior year to help his single mom support the family, and swept floors, washed dishes, delivered newspapers.

In 1999, he joined Sound City Food in Bremerton, working his way up to general manager. He took some classes at Olympic College in 2000. In 2001, he ran for North Kitsap School Board against Bethany McDonald, getting 2,753 votes to her 7,380.

In 2003, he started four espresso stands, but in two years was forced to seek Chapter 7 bankruptcy protection. He operated the remaining two espresso stands until four years ago, when he joined Ootopia Coffee Roasters in Bremerton; he is Ootopia’s sales manager.

In 2005, he earned his GED to encourage his sister, who was working for her GED. In 2006, he ran for Public Utility District 1, getting 22,829 votes to Lloyd Berg’s 42,399. In 2008, he was appointed to the county Citizens Budget Committee and became vice chairman.

Peace activists going to court POULSBO — Nuclear weapons protestors will appear in a Kitsap County court to face charges for blocking the entrance to Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor earlier this year.

The activists were part of Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action’s day of action honoring the memory of Martin Luther King Jr. State Patrol officers cited them for “Pedestrian in Roadway Illegally” and released them at the scene.

Those cited were Louise Bollman, Larry Kerschner, Gabriel La Valle, Peggy Love, Jack Smith, Carlo Voli, Marion Ward, Robert Whitlock, and Alice Zillah.

Bollman and Voli are scheduled to appear in Kitsap County District Court today at 3 p.m.

Smith, Whitlock and Zillah, are contesting their charges and have a hearing date of May 14 at 1:15 p.m.

The others chose to pay their fines.

Time is short, but it may not be too late to trim your 2011 tax bill. Here are some last-minute moves and deductions you shouldn’t overlook.

1. Maximize your 2011 IRA contribution. You have until April 17 to make deductible 2011 contributions. The maximum contribution is $5,000 for 2011 ($6,000 if you were 50 or older last year).

If you changed jobs in 2011, make sure you didn’t have excess social security taxes withheld. Claim credit for the excess on your Form 1040 if you paid over $4,486.

Look into itemizing deductions if you usually take the standard deduction. Search for allowable deductions that you might have overlooked, such as the reinstated deduction for state and local sales taxes in lieu of deducting state and local income taxes.

Medical deductions are allowable to the extent they exceed 7.5% of adjusted gross income (AGI). Don’t forget items such as eyeglasses and hearing aids. You can deduct mileage for medical appointments, plus parking and tolls.

Don’t overlook tax preparation fees, safe deposit costs, and certain investment advice. They all qualify as miscellaneous deductions, subject to a 2% of AGI limit.

Up to $2,500 of student loan interest is deductible whether you itemize or not.

The deduction of up to $4,000 for qualified tuition and school expenses is available for 2011. Qualifying amounts for you, your spouse, and dependents may be deductible. Income limits apply.

If you’re a teacher or teacher’s aide, you can deduct up to $250 for classroom supplies that you purchased with your own money.

The tax law is full of deduction restrictions and income limits. If that left you unable to take full advantage of certain losses, deductions, and credits in a prior year, check to see if you have some usable “carryforwards.”The unused portion of prior-year items can often be carried forward to your current year to reduce your tax liability.

Call our office for details or tax filing assistance.

Scout’s honor: Grann Steele is fourth Eagle in family Four Eagle Scouts, one family: From left, Grann Steele, his brother Garrett, their mom Cheryl, their dad Gary, and their uncle Darrell.

By DONNA LEE ANDERSON Special to the Herald

KINGSTON — Only 2 percent of Boy Scouts have achieved the rank of Eagle since the rank was established in 1911. Four of those Eagle Scouts come from the same family in Kingston.

Grann Arthur Steele followed in the footsteps of his brother, dad and uncle and became the family's fourth Eagle Scout March 3. More than 100 people attended his Court of Honor ceremony at Bayside Church in Kingston and, of this group, there were 12 other Eagle Scouts. Among those attending was a Scout troop from Canada, as well as his brother Garrett, who became an Eagle in 2007; father Gary, who became an Eagle in 1972; and uncle Darrell, who became an

these speakers regaled the crowd about “What a standout citizen this boy is,” “What a bright spot he makes in this world” and “How much fun he is to know,” a slideshow of Grann’s growingup years played on a large screen behind the podium.

The audience saw him in his Tiger Scout uniform and at the Scout Jamboree in Washington, D.C. in 2010.

Grann received congratulatory letters from President and Mrs. Obama and Vice President Joseph Biden.

The roster of Eagle Scouts includes President Gerald Ford, several astronauts and members of Congress, and four Nobel laureates. Eagle Scouts who enlist in the military do so at a higher rank than other recruits.

Becoming an Eagle is no small feat. A Scout must earn at least 21 merit badges related to citizenship, community service, first aid, health and fitness, leadership, personal growth, and other subjects; and complete a service project that the Scout plans and manages. Eagle Scout rank must be achieved by age 18.

Those service projects have a long impact on their communities. Gary Steele planted trees and designed the camping areas at Kitsap Memorial State Park. Darrell See STEELE, Page A19

Russian students study at West Sound Academy POULSBO — A few minutes before the end of the school day at West Sound Academy March 9, a small bus pulled up in front of the American flag flying outside Baker Hall.

Thirteen teenagers and their two adult chaperones stepped out onto the parking lot, relieved that their 48-hour, 4,700-mile, journey from their homes in Novosibirsk, Siberia was over.

The Russian delegation from Gymnasium No. 10 had arrived.

West Sound Academy's Head of School Barrie Hillman greeted the students, their English teacher Natasha Marina and fellow adult chaperone Olga Verba, and took the group on a tour of the school. Local host families came to the campus to meet their guests and took the travelers home to get some rest.

The visit by the Russian students was proposed to Hillman by Janie Eckberg, Bainbridge Island artist and founder of Camp Siberia, which trains island teens to work in an American-style summer camp for orphans

Steele

Continued from page A18 blazed trails in Olympic National Park. Garrett built a cement walkway and wheelchair ramp at Kvelstad Pavilion. Grann built a covered walkway to improve pedestrian safety and comfort at Bayside Church; the project required $11,581 in fundraising and working with seven agencies and contractors.

Grann’s mother Cheryl and father Gary were on the stage while Grann was presented his Eagle Scout

in Novosibirsk. One of Eckberg’s friends in that city, Vera Ivanovna Sukhina, is principal of Gymnasium No. 10. Sukhina wanted to organize an exchange program with an American school, and Eckberg contacted Hillman.

Since the academy’s adoption of the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme last year, it has had an increasingly global focus in its curriculum and student body.

The visit creates “an atmosphere of exchange, collaboration and inspirational learning for both West Sound students and the Russian students,” Hillman said. “Our students will have lifelong friends in another part of the world and this opens up the very exciting global opportunity of traveling to their home next year for a true cultural exchange.”

This academic year, the school welcomed 12 international students from six different countries into their community.

“Hearing at least three or four languages being spoken around the lunch table,

tribute. The Steele family then called almost 70 people to the front to thank them with a present and hugs and handshakes, for helping Grann attain his Eagle Scout rank. One of the last speakers turned to Grann and said, “Look at all these people here to support you ... This is only a small percent of people who believe in you.”

Indeed. As Bayside Church secretary Barbara Brumagin said of Grann in an earlier interview, “He’s so industrious and ingenious.

He sees something and finds a way to get it done.”

I mean, where else does that happen?” ninth-grader

Madeleine Bentley said.

Novosibirsk, is known as

the Russian Chicago — a metropolis of 1.5 million people in the southern part of western Siberia, and the third-largest city in Russia.

Gymnasium No. 10 is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, and is recog-

nized nationally in Russia for its English program and the high academic achievement of its students.

“When the parents of these students were growing up, our country was closed,” Marina said. “Now, they want their children to have a wider exposure to other countries.”

The students’ last day at the academy is today. They will then leave for a oneweek tour of Los Angeles and New York.

Conservation group working to strengthen its ties

By KIPP ROBERTSON

krobertson@northkitsapherald. com

BREMERTON — Chuck Gauthier has been an angler all his life, with roots going back to commercial fishing on the Great Lakes.

He started fishing when he was 4.

Years ago, when he wanted to help change fishing laws, he did just that.

Gauthier is one of the founding members and president of the Kitsap chapter of the Coastal Conservation Association.

The chapter, which has about 400 members, works

to change legislation for recreational fishing.

On March 31, the association will hold its fourth banquet in the Kitsap County Fairgrounds Presidents Hall, 1200 NW Fairgrounds Road, Bremerton. Doors open at 4 p.m. Tickets must be purchased prior to the event by either calling Lee Kriley, (360) 297-8196; Mike Carter, (206) 2904316 or (360) 779-4603; or purchase them in person at the Poulsbo Marina or the Valley Nursery.

The banquet will include a silent auction prior to dinner and live auction after.

Items being auctioned include: guided salmon, steelhead and halibut fishing trips; a trip to Sportsman Cove Lodge in Alaska; rods, weekend getaways, fishing tackle and more.

The association, a nonprofit comprised of 17 coastal state chapters, is comprised mostly of salt water anglers. It was formed in 1977 after “drastic commercial overfishing along the Texas coast,” which decimated redfish and trout populations, according to information provided by the association. In 2007, the association was awarded the

Conservation Award from the International Game Fish Association.

Included in the list of the association’s accomplishments are establishing a recreational priority for Dungeness crabs in the Puget Sound, resulting in longer crabbing seasons; helping get derelict gillnets removed from the Nooksack River; defeated legislative efforts in 2009 and 2010 to remove the current Fish & Wildlife Commission in retaliation for active efforts to promote conservation; provided comments to NOAA regarding the Columbia

River Environmental Impact Statement; and more.

The Kitsap chapter also helped open summer fishing of chinook salmon at Point No Point.

Clay Dickerson, now a member, was approached about joining the association. Dickerson, a fisherman for more than 40 years, saw everything it was doing and joined.

“The [association] is actually doing something and getting something accomplished,” he said.

Though the banquet is taking up a large portion of members’ time, Gauthier

added to the report.

Joseph Matthew Henninger was killed by police after he allegedly fired a handgun inside the Les Schwab Tire Center on Viking Way. His father-

in-law, Teiney Carver of Poulsbo, said in an earlier interview that Henninger’s depression medication was changed two weeks before the shooting, from Wellbutrin to Paxil. Carver

thinks that may have been a cause of Henninger’s behavior, which he said was uncharacteristic.

The shooting is under investigation by the Kitsap County Sheriff ’s

said future plans include starting rod building classes, and introduction classes to fishing in the northwest.

Though the association will physically work to improve the waterways, such as helping collect smelt samples for USGS, much of its work is done through the laws.

“If the laws are not good, we need to affect it somehow and through legislation is the best way to do it,” Gauthier said.

HOW A BELOVED SEATTLE MARKET HELPS TO FEED THE NEEDS OF

AN ENTIRE COMMUNITY.

When the owners of Uwajimaya Market wanted to relocate and enlarge an existing store in downtown Seattle, they turned to Bank of America. Since the 1950s, they’ve relied on us for financing to expand their operations, open new locations and grow their business. As a result, they’ve been able to better serve their customers, provide more jobs and strengthen their role as a focal point for the region’s diverse Asian community.

Uwajimaya Market is another example of how we’re working to help small businesses grow and hire in the Puget Sound — and across the country. In 2011, we provided $222.5 million in new credit to small businesses in Washington — an increase of 28% from 2010.

Professor Gall performs at the Hi-Fidelity Lounge March 24.

WHEN FOLK MEETS PUNK BREMERTON — Professor Gall serves up what he calls “a tincture of junkyard folk and steampunk jazz” March 24, 9 p.m., at the Hi-Fidelity Lounge, 2711 6th St., Bremerton.

Professor Gall was recently featured by Seattle’s City Arts Magazine as the Portland, Ore. representative of the National Steampunk Movement, along with the Dresden Dolls (Boston), Abney Park (Seattle) and Unwoman (San Francisco).

Critical acclaim for the group’s first full length CD, “Intravenous Delusion,” has made Professor Gall a regional favorite, sharing the stage with seminational and national acts at the Folklife Festival in Seattle, Gearcon in Portland, Teslacon in Madison, Wis., and Steamcon in Bellevue.

Professor Gall’s Drew Norman (vocals, banjo, guitar, percussion stomp box) brings his theatrical experience to the musical stage and is responsible for the initial musical and lyrical embellishments. His recent side roles include the husband in the stage and movie version of Sally Tomato’s “Toy Room” (2010, Severe Enterprises), a rock opera that won accolades from The Heart of England See GALL, Page 3

Emma Otis of Poulsbo tells Girl Scouts about the history of Camp St. Albans, during a visit in 2006. She was involved in the camp when it was established in 1935. Today, at age 110, she is America’s oldest Girl Scout. Otis family collection as “a force for desegregation.”

They welcomed girls with physical challenges at a time when people with disabilities were excluded from many activities.

They helped girls of all backgrounds develop skills that made them self-reliant and resourceful,

and encouraged them to prepare for roles as professional women and for active citizenship outside the home.

Girl Scouts have always been tough cookies, pushing for social change in America since Juliette Gordon Low founded the organiza-

tion in 1912.

“The main thing I got out of it were the friendships and experiences,” said Lynanne White, who is in her 30th year of Scouting — seven as a girl and 23 years as a leader. “The experience of camping See GIRL SCOUTS, Page 2

Girl Scouts throughout Kitsap County are celebrating the organization’s 100th birthday this month.

Girl Scouts of America’s centennial was March 12, but in recognition 2012 is being heralded as the Year of the Girl. Mayor Becky Erickson wrote a proclamation declaring 2012 as the Year of the Girl in Poulsbo.

One hundred and fifty Scouts, including Troop 42621 in Central Kitsap, kicked off the centennial celebration at Silverdale SongFest, Feb. 26 in Kitsap Mall.

On March 24, North Kitsap Girl Scouts (Service Unit 310) will host an invitation-only celebration at Farm Kitchen, 24309 Port Gamble Road NE, Poulsbo.

By the way, the oldest Girl Scout is Emma Otis, 110, of Poulsbo. In 1935, she helped establish Camp St. Albans in Belfair — more than 400 acres of

woods surrounding peaceful Lake Devereaux. For up to 11 days, Girl Scouts enjoy backpacking, campfires, cookouts, horseback riding, and water sports.

“Less than a year later, she returned to the United States and made her historic telephone call to a friend (a distant cousin), saying, ‘I’ve got something for the girls of Savannah, and all of America, and all the world, and we’re going to start it tonight!”

“On March 12, 1912, Juliette Low gathered 18 girls to register the first troop of American Girl Guides. Margaret “Daisy Doots” Gordon, her niece and namesake, was the first registered member. The name of the organization was changed to Girl Scouts the following year.”

The group quickly began breaking racial and social bounds. The first troop for African American girls was founded in 1917; the first American Indian troop was formed in New York state in 1921; and the first troop for Mexican Americans

was formed in Houston, Texas, in 1922. Most Girl Scout units were originally segregated by race according to state and local laws, but by the 1950s, the Girl Scouts had begun significant national efforts to desegregate its camps, the first being Camp Shantituck in Kentucky in 1956. In 1969, a national Girl Scout initiative called Action 70 was created that aimed to eliminate racial prejudice.

There are programs for girls in unusual situations that make it difficult for them to participate in the standard program. The Girl Scouts Beyond Bars program helps daughters of incarcerated mothers to connect with their mothers and to have the mothers participate in Girl Scout activities. Another program allows girls who are in detention centers to participate in Scouting. Other initiatives involve girls who live in rural areas, in public housing, and overseas.

Today, Girl Scouts are known as much for public service and community projects as they are for those cookies.

Monica Boyd, co-manager of Service Unit 312 in Central Kitsap, said her Scouts donate cookies to food banks, put together

and distribute Thanksgiving food baskets, buy toys for children at Christmas, help clean trails and assist at animal shelters and fish hatcheries.

“They are very passionate about what they are doing,” she said. “They are all focused on things that are bigger than themselves.”

Boyd has led the same group of girls since they were in second grade.

They are now high school juniors. “It’s been an honor and pleasure to watch them grow over the years. They are strong and confident.

They know themselves. It’s been really amazing to play a small part in that.”

Many Girl Scouts have become successful leaders in numerous professional fields such as law, medicine, politics, journalism, and science. Famous American Girl Scouts include former U.S. Senator Elizabeth Dole and Dr. Kathryn Sullivan, the first American woman to walk in space.

From the original 18 girls, Girl Scouts has grown to 3.7 million members and is the largest educational organization for girls in the world.

He graduated from the University of CaliforniaDavis with a degree in fermentation science and worked at famed Buena Vista Winery in the Napa Valley’s Carneros district.

He was lured to Washington by Bill Preston, owner of Preston Wine Cellars north of Pasco. He stayed there until 1983, the same year the couple launched Barnard Griffin with 400 cases of wine. In

1984, he took over as head winemaker for burgeoning Hogue Cellars in the Yakima Valley. He stayed there until 1991, when Barnard Griffin had grown large enough to command all of his attention.

Griffin is assisted by Mickey French, associate winemaker. French started in the Richland tasting room in 1997 and moved into cellar operations the following year.

And now Griffin’s daughter Megan, 24, has joined

the operation as staff enologist. She earned a degree from Washington State University’s horticulture and viticulture program and now is immersed in the family business. While she has not made a Barnard Griffin wine on her own from start to finish, her proud dad said he probably will have her do so during the 2012 vintage.

He is very friendly boy who gets along with the mellow cats he has come across at our Cattery and Adoption Center. We have no history on him with dogs or children.

Since being with us he has shown himself to be a quiet boy who likes to find a spot in the sun and relax. He enjoyes playing with wandy & feathery toys. Sylvester likes to sit in the window at the Adoption Center and people watch. He also likes to chase bugs on the other side of the window. He’s a friendly boy who has been an indoor/outdoor cat previously. He enjoys the cushy warm beds inside alot. He will be hanging out at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping to find a new family.

Barnard Griffin wines we’ve tasted recently. They should be available through your favorite wine merchant or order them directly from the winery. n Barnard Griffin 2008 Gunkel Vineyard Barbera, Columbia Valley, $35.

Gunkel Vineyard in the Columbia Gorge near the community of Maryhill is one of winemaker Rob Griffin’s favorite locations, and this superb Barbera is a great example of what the Gunkel family can provide, opening with aromas of black currants, black cherries, Marionberries, leather, mint and pomegranates.

On the palate, it’s a hedonistic wine with big black cherry and ripe boysenberry flavors, backed with well-managed tannins and a late boost of acidity. n Barnard Griffin 2008 Lonesome Spring Ranch Vineyard Cotes de Rob, Columbia Valley, $25. This

fanciful blend of Syrah, Durif (Petite Sirah), Grenache Noir, Grenache, Counoise and Mourvèdre results in a wine is as delicious as it is superb, opening with exotic aromas of gaminess, chocolate-covered blueberries, mincemeat spices and black peppers. It is a wellconstructed wine, revealing hedonistic flavors of blackberries, black olives, black currants and black licorice.

Fine-grained tannins allow zingy, juicy flavors to shine through the lengthy and memorable finish. n Barnard Griffin 2010 Syrah, Columbia Valley, $17. This young wine opens with luscious aromas of blackberries, plums and sweet oak, followed by wonderful flavors of dense black fruit, tobacco leaf, bright acidity and a long, plush finish.

Continued from page 4 marketing from WSU. She represents the winery in many ways, promoting the operation at events, online and on site.

Combined, the sisters are a formidable pair, and their parents could not be prouder that they have chosen this career path.

“We never felt that we forced them in this direction,” Griffin said. “We always made it clear it was an opportunity that most people don’t have — to take a functioning family business and make it better.”

He even envisions a day — long into the future — when he and Deborah, a glass artist with a studio near the tasting room, can retire to rocking chairs on the front porch and let the kids take over.

Morton’s neuroma is a thickening of nerve tissue in the toes. This enlarged nerve usually grows in the web between the third and fourth toes. The reason the nerve enlarges can be due to pressure from shoes or direct trauma. People with Morton’s neuroma often experience shooting pains that extend into the toe next to the neuroma. An x-ray should be taken to ensure there is not a fracture. The pain of neuroma becomes more severe with strenuous activity or when wearing shoes that are too tight in the toe area.

Treatment of this condition usually starts with trying to decrease the pain in the area of growth. In most cases, initial treatment consists of padding and taping to disperse weight away from the neuroma and, if severe enough, an injection may be necessary to calm the pain.

New patients welcome and seen on the same day.

Early & late appointments available. Most insurances accepted.
