Debt remains after county sale

By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

An agreement to sell debt-laden Silverdale properties owned by Housing Kitsap was recently reached with a private buyer, however the $2.1 million sale price would still leave the housing authority millions of dollars in debt.

The properties, located in Old Town Silverdale, include a parking lot near Linder Field which sold for $200,000 and a Bayshore Drive building that once housed the Kitsap Consolidated Housing

Authority, sold for $1.9 million.

Sale of the properties are pending inspections and restructuring of boundary lines, but county officials said much of that work has already been finished and should be completed by August.

The building and lot have been among properties for sale for three years. Any money garnered from the Silverdale transaction would be required to go to pay off debts totaling $3.3 million owed to Key Bank by the housing authority on the building.

The $3.3 million is part of a larger debt

owed by Housing Kitsap that in 2005 amounted to $40.5 million and involved loans involving multiple projects including the Harborside Condominium Project in Bremerton.

To keep the financially faltering agency from defaulting on the loans, the county took out a $40.5 million loan in 2005. As a result of that bailout, the county also assumed responsibility to sell the agency’s property portfolio, which include the Silverdale properSee housing, A7

The City of Bremerton is scrambling to figure out how to manage Gold Mountain Golf Course when Scott Alexander, who has run the facility for the past 28 years, retires at the end of the year.

Beyond the immediate need of figuring out a future management solution for the golf course, the city continues to struggle to figure out ways to get golfers to tee it up. The stakes couldn’t be much higher because long-term projections are dire as debt service on the Olympic Course and clubhouse bonds are set to increase significantly during the next couple of years.

Asked when Gold Mountain will fall off a “financial cliff,” City of Bremerton Financial Services Director Becky Hasart said, “About two years.”

“If you’re going to rely just on the revenue coming in from the golf course, about two years,” Hasart said. “But remember, general fund can always subsidize, so that’s really up

to council. And that’s not what we want to do, and that’s what we’re trying to avoid.”

A $5 million bond was issued in 1996 for the Olympic Course and $3.1 million bond was issued in 2001 for the clubhouse.

The number of golfers hitting the links, meanwhile, continues to slide steadily downward. Revenue projections were not met in 2011 and the prognosis isn’t much better in 2012 while the economy, inclement weather, a saturated golf course market and other factors conspire against what many believe to be one of Bremerton’s crown jewels.

Alexander announced in early May that he would end his spectacularly successful career when his contract expires Dec. 31.

Since then, though, the city has been slow to figure out what do next.

City Attorney Roger Lubovich told city councilors in a recent study session that he is reluctant to opening up Gold Mountain operations to national bids because of See GOLD MOUNTAIN, A7

Small businesses increasing in Silverdale

By Patrick McDonough

The Silverdale Chamber of Commerce will host Summer Fest 2012 from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Aug. 9 at 3100 Bucklin Hill Rd. in Silverdale.

The event will be an opportunity for community members to meet with local business owners and learn more about local businesses and organizations. The event is free to the public with food and drinks available.

pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

Small businesses are on the rise in the area and they are as diverse as the entrepreneurs who seek to make their place in the local economy.

According to officials at the Silverdale Chamber of Commerce, the community has seen its share of openings and closings since the recession began in 2008 but recent trends show businesses are taking root in the area in increasing numbers.

Angela Sell, a longtime Silverdale Chamber of Commerce member and last year’s president said she has seen an uptick in the creation of new businesses recently.

“Within the last six months we have seen a lot more businesses open and more joining the chamber both small and large,” she said.

Sell, who is also a financial advisor with Edward Jones in Silverdale, said she believed the trend to be a possible union of connecting hope with economics.

“I think it is a combination of optimism and the economy picking up slowly,” she said.

The reasons for creating a small business can stem from anything from a sudden vision, an oppor-

During and after the creation of an enterprise, small business owners face difficulties not least of which is money.

Sell said money can be difficult to come by for start ups.

“It is difficult getting money from banks right now,” she said.

“They are still worried about economy and lenders are still unsure as to the state of the recovery.”

Ketti Lund, managing director

of Precision Massage and Wellness Center, said the idea for the business she runs with her husband, Brian Crittenden, derived from a sudden inspiration.

“I was turning the corner onto Randall Way and I saw a sign with space for lease and decided to call,” she said. “It was unintentional. I was just hit with a sudden vision.”

Lund said the couple decided to take a chance on the vision and even though banks were hesitant

to loan money for a startup of a smaller business, the couple was able to borrow money on a personal loan.

The couple used the money to open the spa, which celebrated its first anniversary in February.

Lund said the business is thriving and continues to grow.

Derek Gress, co-owner of Fingers Duke Design Studios in the Kitsap Mall, said his company was able to take wing with an opportunity and the help of another local business.

Gress said a prior employer had shuttered its doors and the screen printing equipment used for the business became available. He said he had been creating design and printing for Valholl Brewery

Friday, July 27, 2012

and in exchange for continued work the brewery helped them pay for the equipment and get traction in the market.

“They wanted us to continue to do their marketing and design, and they also wanted to help another area small business,” Gress said.

Bryan Garrett, owner of Kitsap Errand Runner, said he had started his business with his personal savings and refused to go into debt with a loan.

The business started almost by accident according to Garrett. He said he was working in the auto industry and was laid off.

He said he spent nine months unemployed and during that time found himself running errands more and more frequently in his spare time for his mother and others. He said one day his mom asked him a question and the business was born.

“My mom asked me, ‘Why don’t you just run errands for people as a living,’ ” he said.

Garrett said his initial investment for his truck, insurance and bonding came from his savings and after more than two years in business his business is beginning to show stronger profits.

Garden project promotes unity in the community

By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

A groundbreaking will be held Aug. 4 for the Silverdale Community Garden Project and organizers are hoping the effort will benefit the community in multiple ways.

The project has been an ongoing effort for local community groups, including the Central Kitsap High School Environmental Club and the Clear Creek Trail Taskforce.

Michael Davis, project manager for the community garden, said the effort began during the 2011-2012 school year and will consist of 25 raised garden plots in which participating gardeners will be able to grow produce they can use or donate to local food banks.

A compost bin will be available on site to add to the organic nature of the project, Davis said.

Davis said the benefits to the community will be multifold with the project designed

Michael Davis and Marilyn Prosser stand beside equipment being used to create a path to the new community garden they helped to create in Silverdale. The pair, who graduated from Central Kitsap High School last year, said they look forward to seeing the project completed and hope it serves the community well. to instill a greater sense of community service and pride in the area, assist in educational efforts by the environmental club and others on sustainability practices and simply help community members meet their food needs.

“Our then president Marilyn Prosser and I, along

with a group of fellow club members and volunteers, have been working since the start of the school year to make these goals possible,” Davis said.

Davis said the project is indebted to the efforts of multiple organizations and businesses in the area including

Lowes Home Improvement in Silverdale, which Davis said donated the majority of the materials for the project.

Nancy Kellogg, Human Resources Director for the Silverdale Lowes, said she was approached by Davis about the project and said the idea was one the business felt they could support.

“We were looking for a project for our Lowes’ Heroes Program,” she said. “And we chose this one because it aligned with what we do through the program.”

Kellogg said Lowes would supply volunteers and materials for the project in ongoing efforts to serve the community.

“We do this because we get so much from the community and we feel it is important to give something back,” she said.

Tex Lewis, spokesman for the Clear Creek Trail Task Force, said the project fit in with task force objectives. He See GARDEN, A10

Bremerton man hurt in house fire

By KEVAN MOORE

kmoore@soundpublishing.com

An early morning Bremerton house fire sent the lone male resident to the hospital with smoke inhalation and burns to his legs on Sunday.

“It appears that he left food on the stove and forget about it, went back to sleep and awoke to a house full of flames,” said Bremerton Fire Chief Al Duke.

Duke said that the man was transported to nearby Harrison Hospital where he was treated for burns and smoke inhalation and later released.

Firefighters were called to 806 Cherry Court by a person leaving nearby Harrison Hospital who reported that the small home was completely engulfed in flames. The roughly 1,500-squarefoot residence sits nearby to the Alfatooni medical clinic and was being rented by a family member.

Duke said that when firefighters first arrived, they took a defensive posture due to the nature of the flames and because a power line leading from the home had caught fire and presented a unique hazard. As more units arrived, firefighters took an offensive approach to the blaze.

“It’s not a very big house, so it got knocked down pretty quick,” Duke said.

The home’s kitchen and family room were a complete loss, but Duke said an estimate for the costs of damages is not available. The entire home will likely have to be torn down, he added.

The Bremerton Fire Department sent all three of its engines to the fire and its three medic units. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue also sent an engine. In all, some 18 firefighters and EMTs responded to the blaze.

Years in Business: Kitsap County Aging & Long Term Care (KCALTC) has been in business for over 30 years and the Caregiver Support Center, a service of KCALTC, opened the Silverdale office in 2003.

Caregiver Support Center services are for unpaid caregivers who are friends, neighbors, partners, and family who are helping with the care of an adult. Many services such as information, referral, and consultation are unbiased and available for free. The respite program, one of the services of the Caregiver Support Center, offers a break for caregivers.

Eligibility is based on the needs of caregivers and the costs for services are determined on a sliding fee scale. We most often hear from families that they wished they would have known about the program sooner.

Below are some thoughts about our caregiver support program shared by a local family caregiver who takes care of his wife: The Caregiver support Program has helped immensely in a number of ways: 1. It provided training of how to be a caregiver.

2. It provided training of the necessity of taking care of yourself in order to be a caregiver.

3.

It provided association with other caregivers who shared information and provided social interaction.

4. It held seminars and conferences in which information was obtained from speakers, from staff and provided association with others to share information.

5. By helping to be a better caregiver it made me feel better about my task and thus gave me more confidence to be a better caregiver and a better, more responsible person.

6. I met a lot of interesting staff, speakers and other caregivers that improved my own personal support group.

educational workshops. This is what family caregivers have to say about our caregiver support conferences and workshops: “All the speakers were excellent. These conferences are always so good. Nice balance of topics & speakers”.

“I really enjoyed how the speaker gave me different perspectives for understanding my caregiver role better (& understanding myself better)”.

7. Being a caregiver and being helped with support made me feel better about myself.

“Realizing that I was a caregiver & that I can get assistance” [and] “interaction with other attendees experiencing similar situations”.

8. The support also taught me empathy and consideration for others.

Another voiced appreciation for “The message repeatedly that I am not alone.”

9. It helped me understand that you are not in this alone and it is wonderful to know that others share your situation and problems and are willing to help.

What we enjoy most about our work in the community is hearing caregivers say that we’ve made a difference in helping them navigate difficult choices and systems and identifying they are not alone in their situation. The Caregiver Support program offers a free personal caregiver assessment and consultation. By helping to identify and offer resources to address issues contributing to caregiver stress, the program supports caregivers and those they are caring for to remain at home and as independent as possible. For more information or a free consultation, call 360-337-5700 or go to www.AgingKitsap.com or email tweintra@ co.kitsap.wa.us

10. It also helped to learn more about [others] various needs and problems and thus made me a more knowledgeable and better caregiver.

To sum it all up, the program is very significant and important for the community and one we are blessed to have available to us. Whenever I encounter anyone that needs help and is looking for help I tell them to call.

One of our program goals is to provide information, resources and education for caregivers through local conferences and

LETTER

IN OUR OPINION

We are not endorsing candidates for any office this election. As we tell this news to the many campaigns that have paid visits to the newspaper office, or called upon us elsewhere, candidates seem either relieved or disappointed.

However, following the primary election, which is scheduled for Aug. 7, readers can share their thoughts as to why one or another candidate should be elected to Attorney General or who you think should replace Congressman Norm Dicks in representing Kitsap County and the 6th Congressional District in the other Washington.

We will print your endorsements for any candidate on the ballot in our readership area. No lines will be drawn, but for decency and intelligibility. The endorsements will be printed but for one caveat, we will will not print letters from groups, organizations or committees seeking to bolster a candidate. Instead, we leave that space available for individuals to share their perspective on who should be the next Superintendent of Public Schools or the next Attorney General replacing the outgoing Rob McKenna.

Make your case in 350 words or less and send it in email or snail mail to the address listed in a box below.

Running endorsements this way is better. Instead of a partisan stance in which we bestow upon you our reasons why a candidate should be elected as county commissioner, a powerful office for sure, we will continue to focus on providing news and information on the day-to-day government and leave it to you to decide if a change is needed in Commissioner Districts 1 and 2 or not.

Not making endorsements for races such as the 6th Congressional District retains our ability to freely question the genuineness of candidate Derek Kilmer’s redirection of every question asked about his record into his hometown boy makes good message which is deftly synched to the national buzz about bringing back “the jobs.” We stay free to ponder the lack of judgement on the part of the campaign manager who decided to overtly compare 6th Congressional Dist. candidate David Eichner to a giant of a man such as the Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Voters might be interested to know I was not allowed to speak on the upcoming school levy during public recognition at the Jul 18 City Council meeting.

At City Hall, the “people’s house,” they have a rule about what you, the taxpaying citizen may speak of. Here is some information you may be interested to consider before giving your vote to this levy.

One-third of the total funds sought with the proposed levy will go for a new kitchen. It is ridiculous. Normal maintenance with modest improvements should be made annually with allowed

school budgets. The kitchens in our schools are more than adequate. They do and will continue to provide without anyone going hungry. The kitchens currently receive 100 percent in health department inspections.

The kitchen staff deserves kudos and a thank you for their excellent performance.

In speaking with four local roofing companies, the following information was obtained: Tile roofs should last 50 plus years. Once again, annual maintenance and repairs will take the roof well beyond their longevity. All of this can be accomplished by budgeting funds properly for these needed repairs and maintenance, the same way families have to save and budget for their home repairs.

Silverdale stormwater plan to begin in 2013

By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

Kitsap County Public Works will begin implementation of series of long-range stormwater runoff plans in Silverdale with an initial project intended to begin construction in 2013.

The project will create 15 retrofit planters along Silverdale Way from Mhyre Road to Bucklin Hill Road designed to catch stormwater runoff and reduce pollutants entering Dyes Inlet as well as well as other waterways, such as Clearwater Creek.

In its final design stages, the project will cost $650,000 with half of the money drawn from stormwater fees assessed to all unincorporated properties in the county at $62 a

The project is the first of 12 high-priority sites des-

The projects are a part of ongoing efforts to restore the Dyes Inlet. Fohn said human access to shellfish beds closed entirely during the 1960s due to pollution until efforts such as those in the county had helped to reopen 1,500 acres in 2003.

“It is really a remarkable story,” she said. “All across the Puget Sound people are amazed at the work we have done,” she said.

K it s ap C ou nt y Commissioner Josh Brown said he supports the projects and believes they serve the community in design, implementation and cost effectiveness.

and Kitsap Mall parking lots.

The county initially looked at 50 sites and narrowed that number down to 24. Of the 24 sites, 12 were chosen as highpriority and are currently at 20 percent of design, according to county officials. Cost estimates range from $50,000 up to $1 million depending on the size and complexity of the project.

Mindy Fohn, Kitsap County Public Works Water Quality Manager, said the projects were part of a commitment to the safety of citizens and the local ecology.

“These projects will benefit water quality downstream in Dyes Inlet by removing bacteria, oil, metals and other pollutants that come from our roads and parking lots,” she said.

“The county is very focused on being very cost effective,” Brown said. “If you look at what the county stormwater utility rate is for property owners versus the city’s, the bang for the buck that you get in unincorporated Kitsap is unbelievable.”

Brown added that the projects were designed with future generations in mind on the basis of protecting and restoring the environment as well as being cost-effective.

“We have to invest the dollars in areas where we are not going to go back five or 10 year later and tear it up for road widening and sidewalks or what have you,” he said Fohn said the community had been consulted during the process and would continue to have a voice in future plans. She said the current plan had sought input from concerned citizenry such as members of the Clear Creek Task Force.

Mark Libby, a volunteer and spokesman for the task force, said members of the task force appreciated the work the county was doing and their inclusiveness of the public.

“She has made presentations about the plans to the Clear Creek Task Force, and we agree with her approach and have supported efforts to improve water quality in the Clear Creek Basin,” he said.

Libby, who said he is an oceanographer by education, said the projects would serve the environment well.

“It is an important step to improve water quality which is necessary to sustain the biological infrastructure in the area and restore a sustainable salmon run in Clear Creek.

The second project designated by the county will focus on the Duwe’iq wetland where the county is looking at purchasing 15 to 17 acres of land to create a constructed wetland. The estimated cost of the project would be $1 million, not including the cost of the purchase of the land, and could begin as early as 2013.

Brown said the county was still in need of input and assistance from the community to see the projects through.

“We really need support and ownership from the community to move these projects forward,” he said.

“The commissioners are really focused on how we can provide incentive to private property and businesses to be able to do these retrofits where they make sense.”

the time crunch.

“The problem with that is it would take time,” Lubovich said. “I don’t know how long it would take to do that, but we do not have a lot of time left to the end of the year and that’s what’s making us a little bit nervous about processing and getting somebody on board.”

Instead, Lubovich said that he and Becky Hasart, the city’s finance director, have had a couple of preliminary discussions with Columbia Hospitality about possibly taking over Gold Mountain operations.

www.bremertonpatriot.com | www.centralkitsapreporter.com

Columbia Hospitality runs the city’s conference center downtown, but golf course management has never been a part of the company’s portfolio.

That lack of experience is something that gave Councilmember Leslie Daugs pause.

“I guess my concern is they have a lot of experience with convention centers and hotels, but my concern is there’s no experience with golf courses and that’s pretty obvious on their website,” she said.

Daugs later said she’d like to ultimately see a wider range of bidders.

During the study session, Councilmember Eric Younger floated the idea

of giving Head Golf Pro Daryl Matheny and Golf Course Superintendent Ed Faulk, both of whom have worked for Alexander for years, a chance to put forward a bid of their own to run the place after Alexander leaves.

“I think it’s fair that they be given an opportunity, before this process is completed, to come up with a competing bid,” Younger said. “The place is in incredible condition and they should have an opportunity to make a deal on it.”

Younger also said that the city should get a bid from Columbia Hospitality.

That approach, by the end of the meeting, was the

Page A7

nearly consensus view of how the city should move forward.

But Councilmember Greg Wheeler had some reservations about the entire process.

“I am supportive of giving Columbia Hospitality and the two gentlemen, Daryl and Ed, a shot at this, but I think to do that just because we’re in a time crunch, I think that’s

a reason, but I don’t think it’s a good enough one,” Wheeler said. “I think this is one of our biggest assets and we need to make sure we get on the right track with our next move. I don’t want to do that just because we’re running out of time and we’re gonna follow the path of least resistance.”

Wheeler said that the city should commission a

thorough study to “learn what we’ve got and figure out a way to get it professionally managed.”

“I want to know from a professional what the right way to do this is,” Wheeler added. “I think we’d be money ahead to invest this up front and get that professional recommendation. I would say the sooner we get started on that path the better.”

A property on Bayshore Drive in Silverdale is part of a recent $2.1 million purchase agreement reached between Kitsap County Commissioners and private buyer Bruce Harlow. The sale of the property, owned by Housing Kitsap, will go to pay debts owed by the housing authority but still leave the agency millions of dollars in debt.

ties, properties in Poulsbo and Bainbridge Island and properties in the Harborside Condominium Project.

Tony Caldwell, Executive Director of Housing Kitsap, said if the sale of the property in Silverdale is finalized, the housing authority would still owe about $18.5 million of the debt with about $1.1 million still being owed to Key Bank on the property.

Kitsap County has been selling properties involved in the project to pay off the debt, but it is estimated that there will be $10 million shortfall between the sale and the initial cost of the properties.

Although the housing authority is funded in part by money from federal grants, Caldwell said the shortfall will not come out of state or local taxes.

“It is still the agency’s debt and we will still pay it,” he said. “The remainder would

have to come from operations of the housing authority. Like any other business we have to figure out how to pay our debts.”

Caldwell said the debt stemmed from deals brokered during a prior housing authority administration, and his administration was focused on balancing the agency’s budget with the least amount of impact to those it served.

“All I know is what we are trying to do to get back on mission,” he said. “And this is part of that. We will not allow it to impact the pricing of our low incoming housing.”

K it s ap C ou nt y Commissioner Robert Gelder said the sale of the properties represented a sizable step in that direction.

“This sale represents one of the largest transactions in the past several years that will help pay down Housing Kitsap debt,” he said.

Gelder said sales of other properties involved in the debt also continue to lower

money owed by the housing authority.

“Sales of the Harborside Condominiums continue at a good pace with less than 10 years remaining on the market,” he said. “All the work over the past few years to address the long term debt has allowed Housing Kitsap to focus on its key mission of affordable housing throughout the County.”

Bruce Harlow, who signed the agreement with the county to buy the property, said he plans to lease the properties to tenants once the deal is complete.

He said he was cautiously optimistic about the sale and, if finalized, he would seek tenants who would be a positive presence in the community.

“You’re always taking a risk when you buy property,” Harlow said. “But, I am an optimist, and I feel there is a great future for Silverdale and Kitsap County.”

Along with the ability to serve up to 15,000 members, the Haselwood “Y” provides jobs for an estimated 200 people.

After hearing of her selection as grand marshal, Haselwood said she would gain some bragging rites with her granddaugh-

“He has been a mentor and a friend to younger elected officials at both the local and state level,” Rolfes said. “He has helped mentor generations of elected leaders in our area.”

Both Brown and Rolfes said Dicks was also a downto-earth gentleman who cared very much for people in the area.

“One of the most revealing things about him is that most people don’t call him Congressman Dicks,” Brown said. “People just come up and say, ‘Hey, Norm, how you doing?’ ” Rolfes said one incident came to mind as evidence of Dick’s love for the people he served.

“We were at the Fred Meyer on Wheaton Way, and a flight attendant who had been on strike came up and hugged him for the work he had done to bring labor and management together. When she did, he started crying,” Rolfes said.

Dicks said he was honored to be chosen for the parade and looked forward to the event as well as retirement.

He said he could remember when Silverdale was a small town and said he felt he had helped to add to its growth into the community it is today.

“When I was a kid, Silverdale was a gas station on one side of road and a tavern on other side,” he said. “It is exciting to see the develop-

ter that once cruised the Lion’s Grand Parade as Katie Kitsap.

These days, Haselwood gifts are given in the name of Joanne’s late husband Chuck, well respected business man that built the Haselwood Auto Group, who died in 2006.

The couple provided generous support to Pendergast Park, the Bremerton Ice Arena and the rebuilding of the Olympic College Library after the original collapsed during a 1996 snowstorm. The library, with a 60,000 book capacity, opened in the spring of 2000.

Larson said the honoring of Haselwood with grand marshal is in equal part to raise more awareness of the new YMCA facility and to honor Joanne Haselwood.

Haselwood’s contribution was spurred by the $1 million gift by Ron and Nadean Ross. It really inspired her contribution, said Arper. Together they encouraged others to get behind the “Y” and make it a reality, he said.

“It’s about those who support kids,” said Larson.

Haselwood’s financial gift helps Silverdale kids have a better life with a place can hang out safely, that does not cost a lot of money, Larson said.

Dicks said he had always enjoyed working with his home community and he hoped he would be remembered for many projects to improve it.

“I was born and raised in Bremerton, and I love the people,” he said. “We worked so hard on restoration of downtown area and the work on tunnel for the ferry. It’s been a lot of fun doing a lot of important projects like the naval museum, the Admiral Theater and the training facility in West Bremerton as part of the Trident Program.

Dicks said he would miss work, but wanted to leave under his own terms. He said he planned on continuing to stay involved in the community and to take time out to fish.

Dicks said he hoped his legacy would serve the citizens of the area for generations to come.

“I hope I am remembered as an effective, hard working member of Congress who cared about his district and made it a better place to live,” he said. “Our work on the restoration of the Hood Canal, the Puget Sound and salmon restoration will serve people for generations.”

The Parade will be held from 10 a.m. to noon July 28 and will begin at the intersection of Ridgetop Boulevard and Silverdale Way and continue on Silverdale Way and end at Anderson Hill Road.

Kitsap’s got plenty of Pride Event celebrates “don’t ask, don’t tell” repeal, looks forward to marriage equality

BY KEVAN MOORE KMOORE@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

This past weekend’s Kitsap Pride Celebration at Evergreen Park in downtown Bremerton brought out about 1,500 lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) folks and their supporters.

Tyler Lane, a Navy Corpsman at Naval Hospital Bremerton and member of OutServe, an association of

actively serving LGBT military personnel, was one of many attendees celebrating the recent repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell.”

“I just want to thank all the veterans and others that came before us because, for me, being gay in the Navy hasn’t been that big of an issue, but for people before me it was kind of an issue,” Lane said.

“They had to live a double life. So, thank you for them.

For them, their purpose was their struggle so they were able to achieve that.”

Michael Goodnow who, along with Marci Mathis, is a longtime Kitsap Pride organizer, also stressed the importance of achieving marriage equality in Washington state with the passage of Referendum 74.

Bremer ton Cit y Councilwoman Leslie Daugs, who has attended several Kitsap Pride events over the years and was sporting a pink Referendum 74 T-shirt Sunday, also hopes to see marriage equality.

High-Dividend Gold Checking

“Nobody picked my spouse, so why should I pick theirs?” she asked rhetorically.

Kitsap Pride started about 15 years ago at Scenic Beach State Park in Seabeck and was a low-key, mostly off-theradar event. Then, in 2005, the annual event took up residence at Evergreen Park.

In a sign of just how far things have come in such a short amount of time, this year’s event featured booths with local businesses, a national chain store, various church groups, human rights groups and others.

The park bustled with people from all walks of life, age groups and sexual persuasions and orientations. Local elected leaders and politicos seeking office could be seen in just about any direction you looked. Bremerton’s mayor, city councilors from Bremerton and Port Orchard, state and local judge candidates and others took in the sunny weather and warm atmosphere.

“On behalf of the board of commissioners, I think it’s a fantastic opportunity for our community to come together and display our pride — in ourselves, in our community and in Kitsap County,” said Kitsap County Commissioner Rob Gelder. “Whether today is your first ever Pride Celebration or your 30th, it doesn’t matter, because we’re here, we’re out, we’re proud and that’s what really matters.

So, thank you so much for being a part of it.”

For Susan Golightly, this year’s Kitsap Pride was a homecoming. The 69-yearold transgender woman, who was born in Bremerton and lived here from 1943 to about 1945, strolled among the crowds underneath a lampshade hoisted above her backpack with hand-written lettering that read, “Ask A Tranny Anything, There Are No Dumb Questions.”

She said that she has been transgender all her life.

“There are even pictures of me at 3 and 4 years old dressed as a girl,” she said Golightly has lived in the Seattle area for about a month after moving to the Northwest

from New Mexico. She said that she opened herself up to answer any question from anyone for the first time during Seattle Pride.

“The idea is to make transgender people accessible so that it’s not mysterious or they’re not so ‘other,’ ” she said. “People can discover we’re just like everybody else.”

said a shed on the property would be converted to a pavilion and a picnic area would also be added to the project.

“We always thought we were going to build the pavilion at some point and we thought the community could also have access to the garden and get closer to the earth,” he said.

Lewis said the project was also indebted to many others in the community such as Bob Allpress, who mowed the heavily overgrown site, and Craig Luthie of Luthie Grading Service who graded the plot, both at no cost.

Marilyn Prosser, past President of the Central Kitsap High School Environmental Club, said she hoped the community would take advantage of the opportunities the garden offered.

“I think this garden is an amazing thing for our community because it will promote healthy eating practices and will help new gardeners learn from experienced gardeners, and it will also just promote unity in the community,” she said.

Volunteers are still needed for the project and Davis said once the project was completed community members would be welcome to contribute to the garden.

Groundbreaking for the project will be held at 8 a.m.

Aug. 4 at the Markwick Public Property located across the street from the Silverdale Dog Park. A small ceremony will be held to thank all who assisted in the creation of the garden before work begins.

SAFE Boats scores another big contract

The CB-OTH-IV was selected after an extensive, competitive process among three other finalists, which included testing conducted in Virginia and with the National Security Cutter in California. The CB-OTHIV is a uniquely designed SAFE Boat that was built to strict U.S. Coast Guard

SAFE Boats recently signed a lease with the Port of Bremerton for 100,000 square feet of space on three acres that will run through 2015. As part of the earlier Navy contract, SAFE Boats also secured a 22,000 waterfront site at the Port of Tacoma to build the 75-foot boats which are too large to transport over the road. The company expects to have a total of some 300 employees by the end of the year.

Washington receives waiver from No Child Left Behind

By Patrick McDonough pmcdonough@soundpublishing.com

Washington recently become the 26th state to get a waiver releasing it from certain constraints of failing to meet the standards of the No Child Left Behind Act and local educators expect good things from the change.

The waiver, announced on July 6 by the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, will relieve local school districts of certain aspects of the Bush Era program, such as requiring all students to pass statewide reading and math tests by 2014. The waiver also frees up Title One funding for school districts that was previously restricted based on scores.

Under the waiver, dis-

in growth from January and June of this year compared to the same time last year,” he said.

Once a business has

tricts will replace the 2014 deadline for Adequate Yearly Progress, or AYP, scores with a provision that focuses on subgroups of students such as those in special education, English language learning students and those receiving free or reduced priced meals and requires these groups to test at a halfway point between current scores and 100 percent proficiency.

As an example, if one subgroup’s AYP score was 74 percent proficiency in 2011, the group would be required to be at 87 percent proficiency by 2018.

School officials and instructors familiar with the NCLB program expressed positive expectations from the change in the testing standards.

Central Kitsap School Superintendent Greg Lynch

said the full implications of the waiver would take some time for local districts to digest, but the changes should offer positive gains.

“I think it is positive overall, but there are details that we do not have or are not familiar with yet,” he said.”But any changes in the Adequate Yearly Progress standards, I think, will be positive changes for the Central Kitsap School District.”

Kirstin Nicholson, President of the Central Kitsap Teachers Union, said she has worked as an educator in the district teaching science during the NCLB era and the program’s standards did not sufficiently take into account the individual needs of all students.

“The waiver and more time,in my opinion, is a

good thing,” she said. “Each child is obviously different and expecting children such as those in special education and English language learners to pass the same tests as other students seems counterproductive.”

Linda Sullivan-Dudzic, Special Programs Director for the Bremerton School District, said NCLB had positive aspects, but often could have negative impacts on the students who often needed the most help.

“At first glance the program seemed to make sense,” she said. “But a deeper look shows it could have incredibly negative consequences on students with special needs.”

Sullivan-Dudzic said the waiver would not change the commitment area educators have to students, it would

simply allow more time and flexibility in meeting individual needs.

“This change does not short change students,” she said. “No one is going to be let up on trying to get 100 percent out of students.”

The change in school district’s use of Title One Funding is also positive, Sullivan-Dudzic said.

Before the waiver, federal Title One Funding was required to be used to pay for service providers outside the district who conducted assessments and other services under NCLB. SullivanDudzic said the waiver will now allow greater flexibility in the use of the funding.

“The idea that you don’t have to set aside money for supplemental education for services outside the district is a good thing,” she said.

Bremerton School District officials said the waiver would free $350,000 for the district next year. Bremerton Superintendent Flip Herndon said the money could now be used directly within school districts.

“The key component of the funding is that every year we have had to set aside 20 percent of Title One funds for supplemental education service providers,” he said.

“This allows us to invest in staff that directly serve our kids.”

Sullivan-Dudzic said she felt many educators in local districts were hopeful about the changes but still needed to learn more.

“I have learned in 29 years of doing this that you celebrate and then wait for the details,” she said.

opened its doors, business owners said the path to success involves hard work, discipline and accountability, but many said it is worth the freedom of working for themselves.

“I really like my boss,” Garrett said. “But it takes

a lot of discipline and you assume 100 percent of the risk.”

Garrett said he worked more than 80 hours a week through the first year of his business including working part time at a local casino before being able to get it off the ground.

Gress said he enjoys being the boss, but said it has always taken a great deal of his time.

“It is still great,” he said.

“You are making something that is your own and that makes a real difference.”

Both Lund and Gress said small businesses need to stick together in the local community.

Lund said she had used local talent and businesses as much as possible in her business. She said everything from the artwork on the walls to helping others in the community were part of her business model.

“We offer local teachers free massages twice a year and one of our yoga instructors is working with the Olympic High School

football team.

Gress said the focus of Fingers Duke is to promote local artists and he said the help he has received from Volholl Brewing is indicative of the community spirit many local businesses share with one another.

He said he found many small businesses in the area to truly embrace the philosophy of keeping it local.

“A lot of businesses keep it local in Kitsap,” he said.

“It’s a big deal around here to keep it local.”

Lund and Gress said they also felt they helped in the local community through offering employment to other local residents. Lund said she currently employs two massage therapists, a yoga instructor as well as an administrative assistant.

Gress said he currently employs a full-time employee as well as two part-time employees.

Sell said she has seen some local businesses fail due to a lack of planning. She said many come to her with an idea and no plan, but that is

not what she has seen make a successful business.

“People jump in with idea first and the plan later,” she said. “It should be opposite.”

Sell said start-ups have a wealth of options in receiving help, from the Small Business Administration and others.

Lund said she had used training through the Washington CASH Program that augmented business training from college.

She said the training was inexpensive and a good refresher for anyone considering opening their own business.

Gress said he had not utilized any help except from other local business owners he knew and used information from business classes in college to run the business side of his studio and store.

Garrett said he created his model from research online. He said he had modeled his business on other errand services around the

country during late night Google searches and made notes on what he thought worked for them and would work with his idea.

Lund, Gress and Garrett all have seen growth in their businesses and have visions for the future.

Lund envisions franchising the model for her spa within the next few years.

Garrett said he is working to the point of expanding his business in the near future by adding trucks and employees. He said he also envisions expanding to other counties and even going nationwide at some point.

Gress said his studio has started creating an online presence and hopes to be able to offer designs on a larger scale in the near future.

“We want to wholesale clothing to small boutiques in areas such as Seattle, Spokane and Portland, and then we want to move down the West Coast,” he said.

“The idea is to make transgender people accessible so that it’s not mysterious or they’re not so ‘other,’ ” she said. “People can discover we’re just like everybody else.”

GARDEN CONTINUED FROM A3

said a shed on the property would be converted to a pavilion and a picnic area would also be added to the project.

“We always thought we were going to build the pavilion at some point and we thought the community could also have access to the garden and get closer to the earth,” he said.

Lewis said the project was also indebted to many others in the community such as Bob Allpress, who mowed the heavily overgrown site, and Craig Luthie of Luthie Grading Service who graded the plot, both at no cost.

Marilyn Prosser, past President of the Central Kitsap High School Environmental Club, said she hoped the community would take advantage of the opportunities the garden offered.

“I think this garden is an amazing thing for our community because it will promote healthy eating practices and will help new gardeners learn from experienced gardeners, and it will also just promote unity in the community,” she said.

Volunteers are still needed for the project and Davis said once the project was completed community members would be welcome to contribute to the garden.

Groundbreaking for the project will be held at 8 a.m.

Aug. 4 at the Markwick Public Property located across the street from the Silverdale Dog Park. A small ceremony will be held to thank all who assisted in the creation of the garden before work begins.

PROGRAM CONTINUED FROM A13

Outhwaite said officials of the program are in the process of recruiting clients and beginning visitations.

“I am very excited about starting,” she said. “It is a wonderful program, and I know we will see a lot of great outcomes with the moms and families we will work with.”

Gun ordinance to affect new clubs

By Brett Cihon bcihon@soundpublishing.com

A proposed ordinance amending codes for shooting ranges in Kitsap County would levy restrictions on all new gun clubs in the area.

T he ord i na nce, drafted by Kitsap County’s Department of C o m mu n i t y Development, regulates the days and hours shooting ranges can operate, mandates shooting range

design and prohibits the use of automatic weapons.

The ordinance would also restrict the discharge of firearms in any portion of the county where, the ordinance reads, “there is a reasonable likelihood that humans, domestic animals, or property will be jeopardized.” The DCD Director has the ability to revoke a range permit when a shooting range has violated conditions.

According to the ordi-

nance, any new operating permit that is handed out “is not intended to alter the legal nonconforming use status and rights of existing ranges.” Officials said that the new ordinance was drafted in an attempt to protect participants, spectators, neighbors and the public.

CKFR gets $458K grant

By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com

Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue received notification last week that it has been awarded $458,552 to support its volunteer firefighter program.

LETTER CONTINUED FROM A4

this on their own with no additional funds in their foreseeable future; but with common sense and smart planning meet their needs proudly.

Voters, at best, you are being played. Since 2007 you have lost 40 percent or more of your home and property values yet you are being asked to burden yourselves with additional increases in your property taxes. Keep in mind with your home devaluations your taxes have either stayed the same or increased. Where is the fairness in taxation to the struggling homeowners that can barely stay in their homes monthly?

Vote no on this levy. You do not have to feel guilty.

Taxpaying citizens have more than done their part. It is time for local government to be conditioned to the realities of life and taxation.

Be heard and do not feel ashamed. Stand strong and make local government accountable to the constituents. That’s how it should work.

Vern LaPrath Bremerton

The money comes from a Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grant administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

“This is a four-year grant that seeks to increase and improve the retention and recruitment of volunteer firefighters that provide a needed service to our community,” said CKFR spokesperson Ileana LiMarzi.

Community Development Director Larry Keeton and Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office Sergeant Gary Simpson, will look at the ordinance before it is adopted.

Lary Coppola, a former Port Orchard Mayor running for Kitsap County Commissioner Dist. 2, said he has not looked through the ordinance carefully, but knows the three citizens appointed from the Kitsap County Planning Commission

“This grant provides the funding to increase the training qualifications and certifications of the volunteer firefighters within the district and to recruit new volunteer members into the organization.”

LiMarzi said that the funds will be available to the fire department in about three months.

to be some of the more “liberal” citizens on the commission, and believes them to be most likely to restrict shooting clubs.

In a recent Kitsap County Commissioner election debate held at the Norm Dicks Center, Coppola said he would move to eliminate “vendetta prosecution,” levied by the prosecutor’s office.

Coppola told the Port Orchard Independent that Kitsap County continuing to prosecute the Kitsap Rifle and Revolver Club, and the club’s executive officer Marcus Carter, was an example of the wasteful vendetta prose-

cution. Carter had previously won in cases against the prosecutor’s office, Coppola said, referring to a 1999 case involving an illegally modified firearm allegedly owned by Carter, yet they continue to pursue him and the club.

“They are coming after this guy on land use because they can’t win on the constitutional part,” Coppola said. “That seems like a vendetta to me.”

Current Kitsap County Commissioner Charlotte Garrido said she was unable to comment on the county’s ongoing litigation.

Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue is a combination department consisting of career firefighters, volunteer firefighters and volunteer non-combat members that provide emergency response services to Silverdale, Tracyton, Brownsville, North Perry, Seabeck, Olympic View, Hintzville, Lake Tahuya, Chico-Erlands Point and

Kitsap Lake.

Community members wishing to volunteer their time can begin the application process by visiting the department’s administration building at 5300 NW Newberry Hill Road to fill out an application or call Training Division Manager Paul Stewart at 360-447-3614 for more information.

‘Greetings! Wish you were here’

Local scenes featured in new line of greeting cards

This photograph, of a rainbow over Eagle Harbor, will be part of a line of greeting cards being published by photographer Martin Bydalek.

P

eople have tried to explain what Bainbridge Island

“is.”

Some may point to its past, and others to the ferries. But photographer Martin Bydalek knows, and he can show why.

With more than three decades worth of photographs from the Kitsap Peninsula — including a considerable collection from Bainbridge Island — Bydalek has decided to take his artwork to another level.

“I’ve published my work since 1980, and I’ve got an archive of work that I

think is worthy of a card line,” Bydalek said.

The photographer, who

lives on Sandy Hook Road in Suquamish, is currently in the process of produc-

ing greeting cards featuring the timeless images he has captured through his

lens. The cards will feature scenes that islanders, whether they know it or

not, are familiar with.

Over the years, passersby have taken in much Bydalek’s work. The Seattle ferry terminal features his wall-sized mural of two ferry boats crossing in front of the city’s skyline — the picture was taken from Rockaway Beach on Bainbridge Island.

People waiting in line at the Winslow post office may have noticed his poster hanging in the lobby, a scene of Eagle Harbor filled with boats under a full moon.

Continued from page 2 Even the millions who, years ago, purchased computers with Windows XP 2000 may recall Bydalek’s work — his photograph of Mount Rainier under the moon was the default desktop image.

Bydalek’s photographs express scenes uniquely Bainbridge Island.

From dogs playing on the beach, to boats in the harbor, and even pastoral waterfront properties, it is rather difficult to look at a piece of his Bainbridge work and not be impressed with the atmosphere of the island.

“Two of the pictures that are in the post office are

Most of Martin Bydalek’s cards will be blank and offer a variety of scenery, though he does plan on producing a few unique ones with a little humor. “There is one where I got my dog with the cat’s head in its mouth and inside it will say ‘Don’t get mad, get even.’ ”

be showing up at Kitsap shops as a more elegant format to write “wish you were here” on.

While he is excited about the new card line, it does take him away from his passion. Bydalek is ready to get back to what he loves, photography.

“You take a picture and that’s 1/500 of a second,” Bydalek said. “And then you spend hours of getting it produced and marketed.”

“We appreciate the many years of kindhearted service that PAWS has contributed to our community, making our lives and our pets’ lives richer.”

Johnson joked, “We at

Classic Cycle really feel for all the cats and dogs out there that are not only homeless, but who also don’t know how to ride a bicycle. The PAWS and Pints Fun Ride is our chance to lessen their burden a bit.”

Although he said it in jest, last year’s event included several families giving small dogs a ride in bike

baskets and some larger dogs jogging alongside on tethered leads.

“We have a blast with this event,” PAWS Executive Director Mark Hufford said.

“Of course, it’s a boost financially for our community pet support programs, but we also really appreciate the camaraderie of local businesses and pet lovers

coming together in such a positive way.”

Pre-registration for the event is $20 for adults and $12 for children 12 and younger until July 31. Preregistration is required to guarantee your gift bag and raffle tickets. Register online through the Treehouse Cafe website: http:// treehousebainbridge.com/

Sauvignon Blanc is one of the Northwest’s best wine secrets I

n the world of wine, Sauvignon Blanc is a noble grape, especially in its native France.

In the Pacific Northwest, it is little more than an afterthought, which is too bad because the grape can produce deliciously crisp white wines that pair beautifully with regional dishes, especially seafood.

Sauvignon Blanc is thought to have originated in either the Loire Valley or Bordeaux.

Today, it is well known in both regions. It is often blended with Semillon for dry white Bordeaux as well as Sauternes, the famous — and expensive — dessert wine. The grape is equally famous for being a parent (with Cabernet Franc) of the king of wine grapes: Cabernet Sauvignon.

More than a century ago, the grape was introduced to California, where it suffered from a poor reputation. In 1968, Napa Valley’s Robert Mondavi renamed it “Fumé Blanc” purely for marketing purposes — and it took off in popularity.

In recent years, Sauvignon Blanc has become most famous in New Zealand, where it produces a dry, crisp and wildly flavorful white

“Very little is understood regarding the molecular processes that contribute to enhanced brain health with exercise, or the impact that greater brain volume has on cognitive function,” said Dr. Kirk Erickson of the University of Pittsburgh, who worked on one of the studies. But he also pointed to some immediate implications.

“Our findings suggest that the aging brain remains modifiable, and that sedentary older adults can benefit from starting a moderate walking regimen,” he said.

Walking, not for the purpose of exercising but as a normal daily function, was the subject of another

wine.

Alas, in Washington, Sauvignon Blanc has never been more than a minor player. Last year, about 4,300 tons were harvested, making it a distant No. 4 white wine grape behind Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. Some also is grown in Oregon, British Columbia and Idaho.

It’s too bad that Sauvignon Blanc has yet to catch on in the Northwest because it can produce a food wine that is superior to Chardonnay and Pinot Gris, especially when paired with salmon, halibut, oysters, scallops, chowders and grilled or steamed vegetables.

Despite its rarity, finding a Northwest Sauvignon Blanc should not be too difficult, as some of the region’s largest producers (Covey Run, Columbia Crest and Chateau Ste. Michelle included) make the wine.

study presented at the conference. It found older people’s slower gait could also be a symptom for mental decline. A reduced pace has always been considered as a natural part of aging. But the results of this study seem to indicate that being less swift and steady on one’s feet may be a sign that cognitive functions are suffering as well.

This is potentially a new perspective for health care professionals who treat older patients with mental health issues.

“People who are focused on cognition largely never watch people move,” said Dr. Stephanie Studenski, a geriatrician at the University of Pittsburgh who did not take part in the study. She was interviewed by the New York Times July 17. “The tests

Simply by observing how older people walk could provide doctors with an additional tool for diagnosing impairments such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Although the studies reported at the conference have yet to undergo peer reviews before being released for publication, they have already generated a considerable buzz in the medical community and beyond. The Alzheimer’s Association International Conference is the world’s largest of its kind and is sponsored by the Alzheimer’s Association, the world’s leading health organization in Alzheimer care, support and research.

‘Footloose: The Musical’ at Kitsap Forest Theater BREMERTON — Through “Footloose, The Musical,” Kitsap Forest Theater and its family audiences will explore familiar topics: family, community, morals, values and self-expression.

The popular music of the 1980s film and new songs created for the musical adaptation will come to life on the forest floor of this outdoor amphitheater just west of Bremerton. The Mountaineers Players will present this toe-tapping show each weekend at 2 p.m. July 28 to Aug. 19.

Synopsis: When Ren and his mother move from Chicago to a small farming town, Ren is prepared for the inevitable adjustment period at his new high school. What he isn’t prepared for are the rigorous local edicts, including a ban on dancing instituted by the local preacher, determined to exercise control over the town’s youth that he cannot command in his own home. When the reverend’s rebellious daughter sets her sights on Ren, her roughneck boyfriend tries to sabotage Ren’s reputation, with many of the locals eager to believe the worst about the new kid.

The heartfelt story that emerges is of a father longing for the son he lost and of a young man aching for the father who walked out on him.

“Footloose, The Musical” celebrates the wisdom of

The life lessons of the Canoe Journey

By RICHARD WALKER Kitsap Week

A Suquamish canoe heads out to greet canoes July 21, during the 2012 Canoe Journey/ Paddle to Squaxin.

Thirty-two canoes visited Suquamish.

Canoes departed July 23 for points south en route to the territory of the Squaxin Island Tribe, July 29 to Aug. 5.

P

OULSBO — In many ways, the Canoe Journey is a metaphor for life. What happens in life often happens on the Journey. And yet, the Journey, like life, goes on.

You persevere. You stick together. And you go on.

The grandparents and great-grandparents persevered. Despite government attempts to erase the culture by outlawing cultural and religious practices and sending children to residential schools to force assimilation, the culture survives.

Today, children dance their grandparents’ dances and sing their greatgrandparents’ songs. The languages of the grandparents and great-grandparents are spoken on the beaches and in the longhouse ceremonies. And the Canoe Journey has reinstated the presence of the Northwest Coast’s indigenous peoples on the marine highways their ancestors traveled.

The grandparents

Richard Walker / Herald

and great-grandparents taught honor, love and respect, three ancient values that helped them survive a time of tumultuous change. Those values are helping a family as it mourns the loss of a loved one in Little Boston.

On July 20, during protocol in the Port Gamble S’Klallam longhouse, time was set aside to honor the one who had passed, to lift up the family with love. On July 23, S’Klallam canoes were taken out of the water. On July 24, S’Klallam’s journey was to resume. Just like in life —

loved ones pass, we mourn together, we help each other get through it, and we continue on our life’s journey.

This reminded me of earlier Journeys. In 2009, during the Paddle to Suquamish, the Sliammon canoe family pulled its canoes from the water as it mourned the loss of a loved one. As the announcement was made, at Birch Bay in Nooksack territory, a storm rolled in and rain fell.

Leslie Eastwood, general manager of the Samish Indian Nation, told

the gathering at the time, as reported in a story I wrote for Indian Country Today, “I think we’re being blessed by Mother Nature here. She’s blessing us, washing away some of the tears, washing away anything that’s negative.

That’s what I’ve heard, when it rains like this, it washes it all away. Any bad feelings and any sadness is going to be leaving us now on this journey.”

The next day, the skies were clear and the air warm, and the Journey continued.

The grandparents and

great-grandparents taught that you can’t carry anger and be mentally, physically and spiritually prepared to pull on the water.

Anger “has to be thrown overboard, so the sea can cleanse it,” state the “Ten Rules of the Canoe,” developed by a Quileute canoe family in 1990.

The grandparents and great-grandparents taught that it’s important to take care of yourself, so you can help others. That’s another principle of the Canoe Journey: “Always nourish yourself,” the “Ten Rules” state. “A paddler who doesn’t eat at the feasts doesn’t have enough strength to paddle in the morning … The gift of who you are only enters the world when you are strong enough to own it.

The grandparents and great-grandparents taught that everyone has a gift, everyone is important.

Again, from the “Ten Rules”: “The bow, the stern, the skipper, the power puller in the middle – everyone is part of the movement. The elder sits in her cedar at the front, singing her paddle song,

praying for us all. The weary paddler resting is still ballast.” Another Canoe Journey lesson: Conditions, like life, can sometimes be tough. But as in life, you have to keep on keepin’ on. Canoe pullers experience that when they participate in evening protocols, hit the sack after midnight, then get up before sunrise because the tide is right and you have to get underway.

And, as in life, you have to know when to ask for help. “You are important to your family and friends,” Elaine Grinnell of Jamestown S’Klallam said.

If you need help — whether it’s carrying a canoe in from the beach, or preparing and serving a meal for hundreds, or packing gear as support crew, or beating an addiction — “all you have to do is extend your hand, and ask.”

Sure, we can try and go it alone in life. But, as Grinnell said during a chat on the beach at Suquamish, “it’s the team that gets you where you want to go.”

Molly and Belle are 10 yr old

medium haired grey and white sisters who were left at a local shelter after their owner died. We got them on one of our senior rescue missions. These girls are very sweet and snuggly with each other and people. They are indoor cats. They do fine with the other older cats in our senior loft. As long as they have a cuddly bed and each other all is well. Belle is the more outgoing and is at the door to meet me each morning.Molly likes to carry fake mice around in her mouth. They go crazy for feathery wand toys. They will bat around jingly, crinkly cat toys in their own soccer game. They will only be adopted out together.

Kitsap Arts & Crafts, nonprofit, cultivates and promotes the arts in Kitsap County by awarding art scholarships to qualified students, supporting the Art Docent Program in public elementary schools and producing the annual Arts & Crafts Festival, as well as presentation of awards to winning artists. These programs are supported by festival proceeds and by contributions.

“This year, we will be giving $8,000 thanks to the success of our festival, contributions of our sponsors, and the dedication of our volunteers,” according to the association web site. For more information about the scholarship program, contact association president Bryan Monroe at (360) 297-3975 or email shasta77rio@me.com.

Complete hearing loss services at Conner

BY JOHNNY WALKER FOR SOUNDPUBLISHING INC.

According to the United States Department of Labor, noise related hearing loss has been listed as one of the most prevalent occupational health concerns for more than 25 years and thousands report hearing loss every year. At Conner Hearing Aid Clinics in Bremerton and Port Orchard, experienced staff have been providing patients with quality hearing loss assessment, technology solutions and claims assistance for 50 years. And they do it with honesty, integrity, and service.

To help during the critical first steps of evaluating hearing problems, Conner Hearing Aid Clinic is pleased to introduce Angela Sison, MS, a Certified Clinical Audiologist (CCC-A) as an addition to their highly trained staff. A graduate of the University of Southern Mississippi, Sison developed her expertise as an audiologist in the United States Navy and now brings her considerable knowledge and experience to local patient

assessment and care.

Understanding the underlying medical pathology of hearing loss is essential for early medical referrals or to identify appropriate rehabilitative methods that can stabilize loss and prevent hearing conditions from getting worse.

After a screening or comprehensive clinical assessment, certified staff carefully consult options and assist patients in making the best and most well informed decisions possible about the appropriate choices relative to their lifestyle and hearing loss. Considering recent technological advances, the solutions can be amazing.

“Hearing aids today aren’t what your grandfather wore,” said owner Kim Coy, “it’s a high tech device, it’s cool, and you can hear.”

Using significant advancements in miniaturization and wireless communication, hearing products like the Starkey Wi series can stream sound from a television, phone or computer directly to the hearing aid. This means patients can

enjoy hands free phone conversations or listen to TV and radio at custom volumes most comfortable to them.

Other custom solutions can include noise reduction ear molds, musician earplugs, and assistive listening devices.

When it comes to service, Conner Hearing focus on detail and follow through to keep patients involved.

From the very beginning, Conner Hearing staff can provide full assistance with filing claims, including doing all of the paper work and arranging medical evaluations; a process that can take 6 months.

“We have more than 30 years of experience working with federal and state agencies on hearing claims,” said Coy. “At no cost to the injured worker, we’ll help him or her navigate through the process from start to finish.”

Kitsap broker offers Homes for Heroes

BY JOHNNY WALKER FOR SOUNDPUBLISHING INC.

In a financial climate where selling or buying a new home can be more challenging to customers than ever, finding the right broker can make all the difference. Managing Broker and Certified Distressed Property Expert (CDPE) Wanda Menees of Peninsula Brokers Real Estate Inc. in Port Orchard, makes the decision easier.

With more than 15 years of real estate experience, Menees combines a proven record of customer service with innovative saving programs that bring extraordinary value to her clients.

Menees’s exclusive relationship with Homes for Heroes in south and central Kitsap County is an example of a financial program specifically designed to offer rebates and discounts to workforce heroes who are buying or selling a home.

Workforce heroes include but are not limited to military, teachers, firefighters, peace officers, healthcare workers and other everyday heroes who provide extraordinary service to the public.

Buyers and sellers who qualify for Homes for Heroes have opportunities to save through a variety of programs, including a 25% discount off of gross commission fees, discounted lending fees, discounted home inspections, and discounted closing fees when using a preferred Homes for Heroes provider.

The accumulated savings alone can be substantial but when combined with superior customer service, closing the deal can also be personally rewarding.

Recently moved from Kansas with a family of 7, Dominique and Shannon Bibbs had unique requirements for their home, noting that Menees worked closely

“Wanda was persistent to keep in touch and communicate,” said Dominique Bibbs. “She didn’t rush us into something and we weren’t just a number to her; she really cares about us. Her knowledge and skills really helped us out.”

“She treated us like family,” said Shannon Bibbs. “Even after we moved in, Wanda continued to help us get the information we needed and follow through.”

Menees credits her success with clients through compassion, persistence and giving back to community.

“People go to people they trust,” Menees said, “and I earn that trust by demonstrating my willingness to do what it takes.”

“I love helping my clients not only find homes and sell their properties but I specialize in assisting clients that have found themselves facing the financial challenges of this changing market. I offer sensitive, confidential counseling to clients to help them make decisions regarding the current market conditions, helping to avoid foreclosures and I specializing in short sales.”

aroundkitsap Bainbridge island Review Video, bite marks lead to arrest in attempted rape case: The suspect in an attempted rape July 22 on Bainbridge Island was arrested after a detective spotted the man while canvassing the neighborhood where the alleged crime occurred.

Bainbridge Police Commander Sue Shultz said the man, who was not named by the afternoon of July 24 in Kitsap County Superior Court, fit the description given by a 19-year-old woman who said she was attacked while walking home from Safeway.

Shultz said the woman

saw her alleged assailant earlier July 22 at the grocery store, while she was picking up a few things before going home. Police obtained a security video from the Safeway that included images of the alleged attacker, and used the video to find the suspect.

Schultz said the man was arrested, for attempted rape in the third degree, without incident around 6:30 p.m.

July 23 near the place of the attack. A detective spotted the man while knocking on doors in the neighborhood and talking with residents.

Marijuana dispensaries and collective grows not likely in Port Orchard: Patients using medical marijuana will likely need to continue to look outside the city limits of Port Orchard for their medicine.

The Port Orchard City Council July 17 agreed to change the city’s business licensing code and effectively prohibit both medical marijuana dispensaries and collective gardens.

The change to the city’s code would prohibit Port Orchard from issuing a business license to any business that operates outside of “federal law.”
