Island gathers this weekend to pay respects to iconic farmer BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Bainbridge Island Review
Akio Suyematsu lived a life that touched America’s history and the heart of Bainbridge Island. The island’s iconic farmer passed away on July 31. On Sunday, Aug. 19, a celebration of Akio’s life will be held from noon to 2 p.m. at the farm he crafted for decades at 9229 NE Day Road. The same day has been proclaimed by the city as “Akio Suyematsu Day.” Suyematsu represented much of what Bainbridge likes to boast about itself — honoring its rural roots, and valuing its local farms. From the day he came into this world, he was tied to the island’s farming culture. Born on Bainbridge Island Oct. 30,
1921, he took his first breath on a Port Madison farm. When he was just 7, as the oldest son of the family, his parents purchased farmland off of Day Road in his name. The Japanese Exclusion Act of the time made it illegal for his foreign-born parents to own land, but the American-born Akio could. He grew up on the Suyematsu family farm, prime farmland that produced strawberries, until he graduated from Bainbridge High School, though, he missed his graduation ceremony. Suyematsu, like all other islanders of Japanese decent, were removed from the island. The country had entered World War II and citizens of Japanese ancestry were being rounded up throughout the country and sent to internment camps.
Suyematsu’s family spent the first part of the war at a camp near Death Valley, Calif., and then later moved to a camp in Idaho. He left the camps by joining the Army’s 442 Regimental Combat Team — an all-Japanese American regiment — and was sent overseas as a military police officer in Germany. The interment split apart much of the Suyematsu family; only a few returned to the area while others went to farms in eastern Washington and Oregon. Suyematsu was one of a handful of Japanese citizens that returned to Bainbridge Island where he found his farm in disarray and his home looted. “Akio was one of the few that returned after the war,” said his

HOW THE RACE WAS WON
Bainbridge proves crucial in District 23 race for Hansen
Drew Hansen
BY BRIAN KELLY AND HENRI GENDREAU Bainbridge Island Review
James Olsen
This bubble chart shows the wide difference in votes picked up by each candidate across Bainbridge Island precincts.
= 100 VOTES Brian Kelly / Bainbridge Island Review
Rep. Drew Hansen used a home field advantage to turn a fellow islander into an outsider in the 23rd District, Position 2 race. Although Hansen, the Democratic incumbent, and James Olsen, the Republican challenger, both claim the island as home, an analysis of precinct returns by the Review in the Aug. 7 election show Hansen was the overwhelming choice of Bainbridge voters. Hansen’s impressive showing on Bainbridge Island, where he won every precinct by 40 percentage points or more, was also key to his first-place finish in the 23rd District. Unofficial precinct results show the first-term state lawmaker picked up a third of his overall vote count
on Bainbridge Island — an area that has only 20 percent of the 23rd District’s registered voters. Olsen remained unfazed at Hansen’s hefty lead on the island, and vowed to campaign across the county, regardless of where he found support. “I’m going to spend a proportional amount of time talking to voters in precinct on Bainbridge Island,” Olsen said. “I’m not necessarily going to go where I have support to begin with.” Hansen and Olsen will advance to November’s General Election in the race. The latest unofficial vote tally has Hansen with 52 percent of the vote, while Olsen has 40 percent. Although Hansen failed to get a majority in most of Kitsap County’s precincts — he won outright in only 34 of a total 206 — the incumbent found small pockets of support
that buttressed his domination on Bainbridge Island. The Review’s analysis of unofficial returns through Aug. 7 found that across Kitsap County, Hansen pulled in more than 60 percent of the vote in 24 precincts. In nine of those precincts, he won big, with more than 70 percent of the vote. All but one of those precincts was on Bainbridge Island. His strongest support, in terms of the percentage of vote won, came in the precinct of S’Klallam, the precinct made up mostly of the Port Gamble S’Klallam Reservation, where Hansen collected 75 percent of all ballots cast. That said, turnout was just 10 percent in the precinct. Hansen’s victory was solidified instead by his home turf of Bainbridge Island. The incumbent SEE CRUCIAL, A20

Bainbridge wants to move taxis at ferry terminal BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Bainbridge Island Review
People stepping off the Bainbridge Island ferry may not find a taxi waiting outside the terminal’s door if the city has its way. Councilwoman Kirsten Hytopoulos would like the terminal entrance reconfigured and the taxi stand moved somewhere else. The idea is to open up the cramped stretch of driveway to islanders dropping off and picking up riders. Responding to mounting community frustration over the drive-up situation, Hytopoulos presented a proposed letter to Washington State Ferries at the council’s Wednesday meeting that asks the state to relocate the parking for taxicabs and the casino shuttle bus. “For as long as that situation has existed, the citizens of the island have been frustrated that we don’t have access to the front of the terminal,” Hytopoulos said earlier. “This is along the lines of what the citizens have been asking for. There is no legal place to stop that is sensible,” she said. The driveway in front of the busy terminal can be a challenging gauntlet for drivers to navigate as hundreds of passengers depart the terminal and make their way to their parked cars nearby. The area currently reserved for taxis includes space for two or three cabs, and the city is not offering
Richard D. Oxley / Bainbridge Island Review
Drivers hoping to pick up people at the Bainbridge Island Ferry Terminal maneuver past the taxi stand on the cramped driveway at the terminal. any suggestions on where the taxi stand should be placed in the future. The Bainbridge-Seattle route is the busiest one in the WSF system for foot traffic; the agency’s last quarterly report shows that from April through June, the ferry run carried 1.5 million passengers, and 738,708 were on foot. The drive-up and taxi zone, however, is only one of two entrances for vehicles to the terminal. Kitsap Transit uses the other entrance for its buses, leaving the question: Where are the taxis supposed to go? Hytopoulos said a solution could be found, if only the search for a fix would start. “I don’t care where they move it,
they could reconfigure all sorts of things,” Hytopoulos said. “We are just requesting that they find some other configuration.” Complaints over drivers’ access to the terminal prompted Hytopoulos to take notice. “There was a flurry of emails and posts on Island Moms around six months ago,” Hytopoulos said. “It brought up the question of where are people supposed to drop off kids, the elderly and just anyone.” A legitimate drop-off zone needs to be established, she said. “When you have out-of-town guests who don’t even know the area, how do you let them know you are there?” Hytopoulos asked. Heron Forester, a taxi driver at the Bainbridge terminal, said there is nowhere else for them to pick up ferry commuters. “They wouldn’t be taking it away from just us, but the community,” Forester said. “I’m sorry to hear that it’s even a topic,” he said. The city’s draft letter to WSF also asks that the disabled parking spots in the area be preserved where they are. The council voted 4-2 Wednesday to send the letter to WSF; Councilman David Ward and Councilwoman Sarah Blossom voted in the minority.

Council gives OK for new moniker for senior center BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Bainbridge Island Review
The senior center has suffered from a slight identity crisis in recent years. Hopefully, the Bainbridge Island City Council has put an end to that. What has gone under an assortment of names is now called the “Waterfront Park Community Center.” The building previously referred to as the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center, and sometimes The Commons, is owned by the city of Bainbridge Island and is occupied by the island’s senior community. Located on Brien Drive and neighboring Waterfront Park, it was originally two separate structures. One of the buildings housed the senior center. The buildings were connected to form one center in the early 1990s. Before it was called the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center, the area was known as the Bainbridge Island Community Commons. “There was The Commons and the Senior Center and
the Health District,” said Jane Allan, director of the senior center. The senior center community felt that the variety of names posed some confusion for the public. “You would say The Commons and people would think of the high school commons,” Allan said. With the recent remodel of the center, senior center members thought an official name change was in order to reflect the whole site. “Now that we’ve renovated, we think of it holistically,” Allan said. Board members for the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center talked about changing the title of the building last month, and by a unanimous vote, the board decided to change the name. The Bainbridge Island City Council put their stamp of approval on the name change at its Wednesday meeting. The new moniker comes as the $500,000 remodel of the building continues. Work is expected to be completed by November.

A dream of a new pet has turned out to be something of a nightmare for a Bainbridge Island woman. Bainbridge Island police investigated a report of a stolen dog on Thursday, Aug. 9 that ended in an arrest of a woman in her 70s. She allegedly told police that she was told in a dream to steal another woman’s dog, and also claimed the pet owner told her telepathically to spirit away the diminutive doggy. The case began when a resident on Madison Avenue told police she received a disturbing phone call from her daughter while she was out of town. Her daughter said her small pooch was missing, but the dog owner also said she knew exactly who took it.
The owner told officers that a woman in her 70s had often talked to her about her cute puppy over the past year, and at one point, had asked her to give her the dog. The woman said she had dreams that the dog was supposed to be hers, and also asked to have play dates with the little pooch. After finding out her pet was missing, the owner told police she called the woman and asked if she had taken her dog. The woman allegedly admitted that she had, but added that she was told to take the animal in a dream. When the dog’s owner told her she was going to call the police, the alleged dognapper responded by cursing at the pet owner before hanging up the phone. Bainbridge Island police officers went to the woman’s
home to speak with her, and found her busy doing the dishes. The woman admitted to taking the dog and insisted that she took it because the animal was being abused, according to a police report on the canine caper. Officers asked her how she knew the dog was being abused and she simply said, “People talk.” Police then arrested the woman for burglary. She got angry that she was being arrested and insisted that the dog’s owner told her to take the animal. She then said that she was told telepathically to take the dog, and then asked if the officer was telepathic. Police located the dog in the woman’s garage and the pup was happily reunited with its owner.

AROUND THE ISLAND
Richard D. Oxley / Bainbridge Island Review
Joe Deets looks over the line of inverters that now scale the rear wall of city hall’s council chambers. The inverters turn the direct current of electricity from the solar panels into alternating current that the building can use.
City hall taps into solar power Something is buzzing at Bainbridge Island’s city hall, but for once it isn’t the worker bees. The city’s center of operations has gone solar. Behind the building on Madison Avenue are newly installed inverters buzzing away as they convert the direct current provided by the solar panels to alternating current that the building can use. With the installation of 297 solar panels, and the corresponding 30 inverters — all made locally by Itek Energy in Bellingham — city hall is the largest solar system on the island. The 71.28 kilowatt system is also the largest single project that Itek has sold. It will cover approximately 20 percent of the buildings energy needs
each year. City hall’s solar project is the culmination of investments by 25 local islanders that totaled $450,000. The solar system is managed by Community Energy Solutions. The nonprofit will continue to manage the system while investors receive their dividends. “My husband, John Cunningham, and I invested in the Bainbridge Island City Hall Community Solar Project primarily because it combines an opportunity to support our community using a sustainable technology and an innovative local investment model,” said Kathleen O’Brien. “We need more and more examples of this kind of leadership and thinking in our region. It’s just plain smart.” Investors will profit from the project through

tax incentives and the energy the panels produce to sell back to Puget Sound Energy. Joe Deets of Community Energy Solutions knows the system will pay off well from previous experience installing solar panels on Sakai Intermediate School. “We learned that it exceeded our expectations,” Deets said. “It’s not as an ideal site like (city hall), but even then the production numbers are quite good (at Sakai).” While the juice is pumping into city hall, the project is just short of complete. Soon Deets will install an informational display inside city hall that will provide real-time numbers showing how much energy the system is producing along with other information about the solar system.
Outdoor burn ban now in effect An outdoor burning ban was started Thursday, Aug. 16. Under the Phase 1 ban, all outdoor burning permits will be temporarily suspended, according to Kitsap County Fire Marshal David Lynam. No outdoor burning will be allowed except for cooking fires in contained cooking units. Recreational fires will be allowed, but they must be in a designated fire pit that is clear of vegetation and at least 25 feet from buildings, fences or anything that might burn. Recreational fires can be no larger than three feet
in diameter and must be attended at all times by an alert adult with immediate access to a shovel and a water source, according to the fire marshal’s office. Officials said the ban will stay in place until there is “significant and sustained rainfall.” The burning ban includes Bainbridge Island.
Advisory body seeks volunteers The city of Bainbridge Island is currently seeking volunteers for its Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. The committee is charged with the distribution of the Civic Improvement Fund, which is supported through lodging taxes. The taxes are used to promote tourism on the island, and committee members review proposals from community organizations that are seeking funding. The advisory group consists of two nonvoting, at-large members; two members represent-

Five meetings will be held between September and November to discuss how the funds will be distributed, and to review proposals.

IN OUR OPINION A waste of time, talent, money
T
he Bainbridge Island City Council has left no doubt: The council’s recent retreat has been an utter and absolute failure. And though this council has tried to establish a reputation as being a wise steward of the public’s money, let’s be honest and acknowledge that the thousands of dollars spent on the two-day retreat was a colossal waste of money. The council met last month with great expectations for the gathering, led by the city’s consultants, Strategic Government Resources, and officials talked at length about creating a unified strategic vision. They talked about effective government practices. They talked about treating people with honesty, respect and decency. They talked about transparency. A common refrain was building trust; trust within the council, and trust between those elected and the hired professionals who keep the city running. City officials also batted around ideas on how to improve the strained relationships at city hall, such as reconfiguring the dais into a horseshoe shape, so everyone could see each other during the council meetings, and giving the city manager a seat at the dais. Unfortunately, recent council meetings have shown that some on the council have no interest in staff having a seat at the table. Changing the seating setup now, it’s clear, would just be moving around the deck chairs on the Titanic. The evidence for our belief that this council is unwilling to work together, or with city staff, is the recent talk of outsourcing the management of the city’s water utility and, this week, a council request to have the city’s cost estimates on its road preservation program reviewed by Kitsap County. These two examples alone show that some on the council do not trust the competency of city employees. But it’s also yet another indication that some council members are not committed to the council-manager form of government. Rather than stick to their roles as big-picture decision-makers on policy, they want to nitpick and undermine the informed work of staffers. We had hoped that a leader would emerge from the retreat, someone who would pull together city hall’s frayed ends and make progress for all of Bainbridge, rather than a council majority that seems eager to walk lockstep with the rabid few calling for the outsourcing of city government.

LETTERS In response
Missing church records have been returned To the editor: I write to share happy news. Earlier, I had written to report a theft at Saint Barnabas. Today, I write to tell you that the documents have been found and have been returned. Thanks to a kind and thoughtful family, who were clearing brush in Poulsbo, the box and the documents were found and the Kitsap County Sheriff’s office notified. They, in turn, notified the Bainbridge Island Police, who took charge of the case and returned the documents to the church within a week of the theft. I want to thank that family, Deputy Sheriff Fortenbacher of the Kitsap County Sheriff’s Department, Officer Carla Sias and Detective Ziemba, both from Bainbridge Island Police Department for their thoughtful, professional attention to this small case. They were kind, dedicated and worked beyond the bounds of duty to return these precious documents to us. Detective Ziemba worked until 7:30 p.m. on a Friday to ensure that I could bring the documents home before Sunday worship. It was a joyous moment for our congregation brought about by the kindness and thoughtfulness of others. We are deeply grateful to all who helped this case end so happily.

Thank you
Bainbridge Bluegrass Festival gives thanks To the editor: The Bainbridge Bluegrass Festival, Music Community Resources and BLCKSWNevents would like to send out a huge thank-you and give a high five to everyone that helped make the annual Bainbridge Bluegrass Festival the most successful in its six-year history. We succeeded in tripling the overall daily combined sales of any previous Bainbridge Bluegrass Festival, and our attendance was more than 2,000 people. Not only did we raise funds for our chosen charities — West Sound Wildlife Shelter and Bainbridge Island Special Needs Foundation — we also had a great time doing it and made some new friends along the way. From the children cartwheeling across the grass to the adults hula hooping and dancing together, the sun was shining on our perfect day. Thank you to the community for coming out and supporting the event! Many people and organizations played an important part of this year’s success. I would like to thank Bremerton Bottling Company, Suquamish Tribe, 91.3 KBCS, Bainbridge Island Park and Recreation District, Inside Bainbridge, Town & Country, Safeway, Bainbridge Performing Arts, Bainbridge Island Little League, The Island School, Artsy Geek, Wintergrass, Congregation Kol Shalom, Bainbridge Island Arts and Humanity Council, BI Zero Waste, ProBuild, KiDiMu, Teatro Zinzanni, Island HoopFit, Island Vintners, Eagle Harbor Books, Comedy Underground, Great Wolf Lodge, Argosy Cruises, Bon Bon

nephew Curtis Suyematsu. “There were only five families that returned to the island. After the war there was nothing to come back to, because most of them had lost everything.” But Akio Suyematsu still had his family’s land on Day Road. The challenge upon his return, however, was to keep it. “They still had the land, but they had no revenue,” Curtis Suyematsu said. “The owner of the land, he basically offered the option that instead of foreclosing the land, (Akio) would pay back the interest.” Akio Suyematsu stepped back onto the farm’s soil in 1947, and he spent years working the land and picked up other jobs to pay back the interest. “He had to work multiple jobs,” Curtis Suyematsu said. “It was really hard to
www.BAInBRIdgeRevIew.com
do that.” Akio Suyematsu farmed the land for the rest of his life, growing raspberries, Christmas trees, pumpkins and more. Just as it was before the war, farming once again became Akio’s way of life. “He was a very dedicated, hard worker and no matter whether he made money on a crop or the seasons were bad he still managed to continue and keep going,” said Grace Suyematsu, his sisterin-law and Curtis’ mother. The Suyematsu farm was the center of Akio’s life. Grace noted that often he put off traveling to tend to the farm instead. The farm came first, Grace Suyematsu said, before anything else. For example, he once owned a summer home off island, but sold it since he kept finding reasons to stay on Day Road. At times Akio, who never married or had children, expressed reservations about not starting a family if his own. But he did,

however, have one serious relationship in his life. “He was married to the farm,” Grace Suyematsu said. From time to time he did find a way to sneak off for another passion, though. “He loved to go fishing,” Grace Suyematsu said. “Salmon fishing; I don’t know if he really got away to do much of it though.” In fact much of Grace’s memories of Akio Suyematsu rarely leave the Day Road farm. “It seemed like he was always on the tractor when I was over there,” she said. When they were young, Grace’s children, including Curtis, would travel from Seattle to spend their summer weeks working on the farm with their uncle, usually selling berries at a berry stand.
Page A7
“He was always good to my children,” Grace said. “From the time they were quite young they went to help their uncle Akio on the farm.” “They would come home on Sundays with all their dirty laundry and then they would go back on Sunday evening,” she added. Grace Suyematsu’s family was sometimes involved in other aspects of the farm as well. Akio had a deal worked out with his brother Toshio, Grace’s husband. When Akio had a load of berries ready for sale, he would drive his berry truck onto the ferry and leave it. His brother Toshio would pick it up on the other side and drive it to a wholesale market in Seattle. In one way or another, all farm roads lead to Akio. Over the decades toiling in
the soil, his influence on the island’s modern farmers was immeasurable, from helping George Gregg start his Christmas tree farm to his relationship with island wine innovator Gerard Bentryn. A wealth of interns and other helping hands passed through his farm over the years, many to begin their own and some who still work there today. When it came time for Akio to sell his own land in the later years of his life, he managed to do so in a way that preserved the Bainbridge Island he knew and loved. The city of Bainbridge Island purchased the land he tilled and toiled on in 2001. But the purchase came with conditions. The city paid $550,000 for the farmland, but deferred a final payment of $1,000 until 2012.
The deal gave Suyematsu the chance to remain living on the property and farming — even into his 90s. The farmland will also remain dedicated to agriculture beyond his passing. Suyematsu’s name was further memorialized in 2012 when the island nonprofit Friends of the Farms created an annual award — the Akio Suyematsu Award, given to farmers who exhibit a deep commitment to island farming. As the island prepares to honor the legend of Akio Suyematsu this weekend, his family asked that donations in his memory be made to the EduCulture Project at Global Source Education, a program that brings farms and classrooms closer together.

May our presence be a positive influence on the Bainbridge council As the Bainbridge Island/North Kitsap Interfaith Council concluded its work prior to a summer recess the group passed a resolution that I, as incoming president of the council, would like to share with our community. It was co-written by Dee Eisenhauer, the pastor of Eagle Harbor Congregational Church, and Paul Stumme-Diers, pastor of Bethany Lutheran Church. Here it is: “Several 2012 meetings of the Bainbridge Island City Council have left many members of the Interfaith Council concerned about the state of civil discourse in the council and in the wider commu-

up to our ideals in terms of civil discourse in our local and regional gatherings. We could all do better to heal the divisiveness that taints so much of our public life. “We are resolved to send ambassadors of the Interfaith Council to Bainbridge City Council meetings for the next six months (at minimum). We cordially invite all city council members to visit our faith community gatherings as well (www.binkinterfaith.org). “At council meetings, our duly sent ambassadors may engage in one or more of the following actions on our behalf.

Thanking public officials for their service. “IFC ambassadors will not comment on specific actions of the council on behalf of the IFC, since that does not fall within the mission of the IFC, nor could the comments of any one person possibly represent the range of tradition and opinion among the faith communities.” As one of the ambassadors to the council, I have attended two meetings since the resolution was passed. In the role of a sup-
portive observer, I am grateful for the thoughtful public service our city council members give. There may not be agreement, but for the most part there is respect and civility. And city council members have expressed gratitude for the presence of Interfaith Council members. I believe this attention will help uplift and support the city council in its difficult job of considered decision-making. Susan R.

BPA to host island’s first Ten Minute Play Festival BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Bainbridge Island Review
The modern trend of channel surfing meets the age-old craft of the stage as the first Ten Minute Play Festival takes over Bainbridge Performing Arts. Held over two days, starting at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 18 and Sunday, Aug. 19, the festival will switch from one play to the next each 10 minutes. The festival is the first of its kind on the island. The two-day event will showcase 14 plays by local playwrights. As the name suggests, each play attempts to pack a fully-formed performance into 10 meager minutes. Two outstanding plays were honored as best adult and best teen plays for the event. “There’s a Goblin in My Kitchen” by Megan Gleason nabbed the teen category.

Spartans return from camp with something to cheer about BY BRIAN KELLY Bainbridge Island Review
The fall sports season hasn’t even started and the Spartans are already celebrating a team chocked with championship talent. The Bainbridge High School cheerleaders were recognized as one of the top teams in the Universal Cheerleaders Association’s cheer camp at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma earlier this month. For the third year in a row, the squad took first place for their “Home Pom” routine. The team was also awarded a “Superior” award for winning blue ribbons on every evaluation during the camp, plus notched a thirdplace finish in Xtreme Routine and Cheer. The Spartans also earned the “Top Banana” award for being the most spirited squad at camp. And on the individual level, four Bainbridge cheerleaders — Emily Schneider, Ally Clement, Leah Nordberg and Olivia Allbritton — received All-American honors. Teammate Ariana Felkey was named the Pin it Forward winner. “It’s pretty exciting,” Spartan head coach Katie Leigh said of the Home Pom win. “The girls worked their tales off to make it happen.” The camp is essential for setting the right tone for the year, she added. “One of the main things is they come together as squad,” she said.

The Bainbridge High School Cheer Squad is, in front, Emily Schneider, Madison Agosta and Ally Clement; and in back, Bailey Starbuck, Skye Levari, Isabelle DeVeaux, Leah Nordberg, Eryn McCassey, Maxsena Butler, Olivia Allbritton, Mary Boynton, Ariana Felkey, Chloe Simon, Elaina Holloway, Katja Tunkkari and Hannah Masters. The Spartans’ head coach is Katie Leigh; assistant coach is Tawnya Jackson. “They are spending three days completely isolated together, and they have to work through some things. “It gets tiring and frustrating and it’s emotional,” Leigh said, adding that the team stayed positive throughout the whole camp and got to know each other better.
“I was really proud of them,” she said, noting that only half of the squad are veterans of last year’s varsity team. “Most of them had cheered before, but only half had been to a camp. For them to have so much energy and positive attitude and work through everything so well, it
was pretty awesome to watch.” The team learned a variety of new stunts at the camp, including one with a flip, as well as dance routines. Schneider, a co-captain of the squad with Ally Clement, said the team rebounded from a shaky start.
“The first day I think we were all a little surprised and I think nervous to be there. It didn’t go as well as Ally and I wanted,” Schneider said. “The second day, everyone just really worked hard and we got the results we wanted, which was awesome.”
Young speed demons tear up the track with multiple wins Six of the island’s most fleet of feet each won four individual events at Monday’s All-Comers Track Meet at the Bainbridge High School track.

WestSound FC announced the 2012 recipients of the annual Nub Greer college scholarships, and the athletes include Devereaux Kesler of Bainbridge Island. Kesler will attend Santa Clara Universitynext year and play soccer. He was one of four selected to receive the scholarship. The scholarships are named for Nub Greer, a long-time supporter of soccer and founding force in the development of WestSound FC. It was important to Greer that WestSound FC players had access to a college scholarship, and he encouraged all players to give back to their communities in a way that
mirrored the commitment they’d seen from their soccer coaches, club and mentors.
Challengers have sensational season The Challenger Mariners have had quite the baseball season this year. The program, in its fourth year of play, allows kids with special needs the opportunity to get out on the ball field and play some baseball with the help of the Bainbridge Island Little League’s Major softball and baseball players helping as buddies. As in the past few seasons, the Challenger Mariners battled their North Kitsap rivals during a home series, with all the players having fun.
Friday, August 17, 2012 • Bainbridge Island Review
This year offered the unique chance to get a personal tour of Safeco Field and batting instruction from former Seattle Mariner John Olerud. The players took their swings in the batting cages underneath the stands with Olerud’s coaching eye to help them become better hitters. The Bainbridge Island Little League had its inaugural season of upper division play begin this year. Fielding three teams in the Junior Division, the Blue, Gold and Gray teams played a 20-game season against the other District 2 Little Leagues. The Bainbridge Island Little League Juniors fielded an All Star team which played in the season-ending District 2 Tournament, finishing with a 2-2 record. The games were quite exciting with a couple of nail-biter wins for the
Bainbridge Island Blue, along with a couple of heart-breaking losses.

But Bernadette’s intensifying allergy to Seattle - and people in general - has made her so agoraphobic that a virtual assistant in India now runs her most basic errands. A trip to the end of the earth is problematic. Then Bernadette disappears. To find her mother, 15-year-old Bee compiles email messages, official documents, secret correspondence - creating a compulsively readable and touching novel about misplaced genius and a mother and daughter’s role in an absurd world. Eagle Harbor Book Company is at 157 Winslow Way East. Info: 206-842-5332.

Bainbridge police respond to two heroin-related incidents on same day BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Bainbridge Island Review
Police encountered two separate incidents involving heroin use and possession on Bainbridge Island last weekend. At 6:21 p.m on Saturday, Aug. 11, police responded to a telephone call from a woman living on Bergman Road. The woman had called to ask about a possible warrant for her arrest, but was told an officer would call her back. There was no answer when police called the woman back, so officers then proceeded to the home while other police personnel checked on the warrant. Police not only discovered the woman had a felony warrant for possession of heroin, but that a man also living at her home was wanted on a warrant for malicious mischief. In addition to the warrant, the man also had a protection order against him from the mother of his children.
Officers knocked on the door of the home but no one answered. Officers called the police department to verify that the address on the arrest warrant matched the home’s address and upon verification, police entered the unlocked home. Officers announced their presence while entering the residence and were met at the stairs by the woman who initially contacted them. She was connected to an IV bag and tubes for a staph infection. She said that she was in the shower and didn’t hear them knock on the door. The woman also said that she was alone in the house. When police continued to search the nine-bedroom home, however, they found a man laying face down on a bed. They proceeded to arrest the man, believing he was the suspect with the warrant and protection order, but it turned out he was not. The man on the bed woke up and told officers that he wasn’t the man they were
looking for and said the person wanted on the warrant wasn’t at the home. Police continued their search anyway and noticed a foot sticking out from a pile of laundry in a bedroom closet. Police asked the person to come out from under the laundry and discovered it was the man wanted on the malicious mischief warrant. After the man emerged from the closet, police noticed his arm was swollen from recent needle use. He was placed under arrest. The woman who had first called police could not be arrested and transported to jail due to her medical condition. Officers have asked that all three individuals at the home be charged with obstructing a law enforcement officer. Nearly four hours later, island police responded to another call about a suspicious man hanging around the Safeway parking lot on High School Road. When police walked up to
the man they immediately noticed cotton swabs and an aluminum can by a nearby bush that had been modified so it could be used for smoking drugs. The man insisted the items were not his, but when police asked him if he had any illegal items on him, he admitted having dirty needles in his
backpack. The man told officers that he had not used heroin in a week. He said that he was taking the dirty needles, some of which were from other users, to a needle exchange in Bremerton for proper disposal. The man allowed police to search his backpack. They
found the needles as well other items commonly used for taking heroin such as cotton swabs, a tin bowl and a paper clip molded to hold the bowl. The bowl and cotton swabs had brown residue on them. Later tests at the police station indicated the presence of heroin.

percent of the vote. The incumbent’s victories in the precincts of Winslow and Crystal Springs were especially key; each precinct has more than 1,000 voters, and turnout was five points or more above the countywide average.
Big wins near Rolling Bay Familiarity is key The gap was most pronounced in the precinct of Meadowmeer, a precinct in the center of the island just west of Manitou Beach where Hansen won 74 percent of the vote. Olsen picked up a mere 15 percent of the vote there. Large margins of victory followed Hansen across Bainbridge. He took the precinct of Rolling Bay with 73 percent of the vote, followed by Eagle Harbor (73), Blue Heron (72), Crystal Springs (71), and Ferncliff, New Brooklyn, Skiff Point (70). Hansen was buoyed by a large turnout of voters in Azalea (45.3 percent turnout), where he got 69 percent of all ballots cast; Winslow (48.4 percent turnout), where he collected 66 percent of the vote; Crystal Springs (48.4 percent turnout), where he won 71 percent of the vote; and Wing Point (45.7 percent turnout), where he got 65
Hansen said he hasn’t studied the precinct results, but he has a theory on why he did so well on the island. “I probably did well because I live here and a lot of people know me here,” he said. “They’ve seen me on the ferry or at Blackbird with my kids, or in church.” Hansen lives in the precinct of Liberty, and said he probably did best in Meadowmeer because his mother and father did a lot of doorbelling there. He noted his campaign also did well in Bremerton. “I think in part because of my work to expand the Olympic College engineering program so we can train more engineers for the shipyards,” he said. Olsen said that despite Hansen’s advantage on the island, it isn’t the only voting bloc in the 23rd Legislative District. “Bainbridge Island only repre-

sents a fraction of the Legislative District,” Olsen said. “It likes to think of itself in large fashion.” Kitsap County has 206 precincts (though half that number are assigned to voters who cast ballots electronically via accessible voting units), and the only other precinct where Hansen rose above 60 percent of the vote was in Augusta, in the Suquamish area of the Port Madison Indian Reservation, where Hansen collected 66 percent of the vote.
Olsen remains confident Olsen wasn’t too surprised by the island’s ability to rocket Hansen to the forefront. The Republican candidate attributed Hansen’s success to the amount of money he spent targeting island voters. As of Aug. 16, Hansen spent $53,427 to Olsen’s $6,791, according to records on file with the Public Disclosure Committee, the state’s watchdog group on campaign finance. Olsen said that, in the end, he would prove triumphant because of voters’ perceptions on the candidates’ backgrounds. “My opponent is a Democrat who believes Olympia … needs more government,” Olsen said. Pledging change, Olsen went on to compare himself to the Republican candidate for vice president. “I’m a reformer, much like Paul Ryan is on the federal level,” he said. This distinction from his Democratic rival could have helped Olsen win more than 50 percent of the vote in 20 precincts. He found his strongest support, percentage-wise, in the precinct of Trident, where he had 63 percent of all ballots cast. Unfortunately for Olsen, turnout
Large leads to the west Hansen also won a majority in nine other precincts across Kitsap County; in the precincts of Bremerton 40, just north of Point Herron, (54 percent); Bremerton 58, south of Tracyton, (53 percent); Olympic, the coastal precinct directly to the south (57 percent); Poulsbo 405, the precinct between Front Street and Highway 305 (52 percent); the two southernmost precincts on the Port Madison Indian Reservation, Totten (52 percent) and Sandy Hook (56 percent); Indianola (58 percent); and the precincts just north of Indianola called Orca (51 percent) and Apple Tree (50.5 percent). All told, Hansen brought home a majority vote in 33 precincts.
“I’m a reformer, much like Paul Ryan is on the federal level.” James Olsen 23rd District candidate
in that precinct, located on Naval Submarine Base Bangor, was the lowest in the county. Just 6 percent of registered voters returned their ballots, despite the earliest primary in state history that was moved forward on the calendar to accommodate military voters. Olsen also got solid support in the precincts of Meadowdale, just west of Brownsville, with 59 percent of the vote; Luoto, just east of the submarine base (58 percent); Old Frontier, south of the Bangor base (58 percent); Fairview, south of Windy Point (57 percent); and Cambridge, south of University Point (56 percent). Turnout, again, hurt the Republican candidate. All of Olsen’s strongest precincts except Fairview had turnout lower than the countywide turnout mark of 37 percent in the race.

T&C expands program to sell home-grown produce Local grocer moves ahead with straightto-market approach
“Our original idea was to start small and learn as we go.”
BY HENRI GENDREAU Bainbridge Island Review
A farmer sells produce to a grocer, who then sells it to customers. Can there be a more direct way to get local food from a store? Apparently, yes — if the farmer and grocer are one and the same. For the past six years, Town & Country Market has been growing its own organic vegetables on a 15-acre farm on the corner of Wyatt Way and Weaver Road. Crops of zucchiB. MacWhorter ni, squash and pumpkins have all found their way to the produce departments at Town & Country, Central Market in Poulsbo and the company’s three outlets in Seattle when produce is plentiful. But this year, Town & Country has expanded its efforts and has constructed two new greenhouses, doubling the 6,000 square feet of enclosed crops. Town & Country has tried to be somewhat low-key about the project, shielding the farm from much publicity, until now. “We’ve been very discreet about the farm these past years that we have been growing,” said Larry Nakata, chairman of the board at Town & Country Market. “The reason why is because before we talk about it we want to be comfortable that we’re doing things properly.” “It’s been a real learning experience,” he added. “We’re still taking it slow.” But with five acres of land currently being farmed, which includes four greenhouses and several row crops, Town & Country is making headway in providing their own local food. “The Nakatas are very methodi-

Manager of MiddleField farm Brian MacWhorter passes in front of the four greenhouses, two of which were constructed this year on the 15-acre farm on Wyatt Way and Weaver Road. cal,” said local farmer Brian MacWhorter, who was hired by Town & Country to manage the farm. “But when they do it, they do it right.” MacWhorter, who owns Butler Green Organics and sells his produce to Town & Country, is given almost total leeway in what he grows at the USDA-certified organic farm. Besides members of the squash family, MacWhorter grows tomatoes, beans, peppers, peas and Japanese cucumbers on the plot of land that boasted bumper crops of strawberries back in its heyday in the 1920s and ‘30s. The farmland itself has remained in the Nakata family for generations. The name of the farm — MiddleField — is a translation of Nakata: the Japanese character “naka” means “middle” and “ta” means “field.” “The MiddleField name has meaning,” said Nakata, who
explained that his family’s roots in farming went back for generations. MacWhorter said he was honored to be a part of the legacy of the land. “I really respect what the Nakatas are doing with the heritage,” he said. “I’m really proud that the Nakatas are doing something for the people.” In turn, Nakata praised MacWhorter for his role in making MiddleField a reality. “Our original idea was to start small and learn as we go. Of course, with Brian’s expertise that’s worked out pretty well,” Nakata said. Nakata said that with the farm well on its way in providing more local produce, it was time to get the word out about MiddleField. “Our next step is to really communicate that story, especially to our customers,” Nakata said. “Knowing where your food comes from, we feel, is very important to
our customers.” While shoppers can expect pumpkins and squash in the months to come, the greenhouses (which mostly keep tomatoes) are not heated, meaning produce won’t be available in winter. Nakata emphasized that MiddleField’s intention was never to supply the store with all its produce needs. However, there is a stand in the produce section at Town & Country currently selling MiddleField zucchini, mixed beans and fava beans. While MacWhorter said that consumers should expect to pay more for quality local produce, the price of MiddleField zucchini, at $1.48 per pound, is the same as that of both organic and non-organic Northwest zucchini sold at the grocery. “We want to be competitive across the (organic produce) market,” said Nakata, explaining that price will not be a sticking point.
“It is distinctive,” he said. “We’re growing it ourselves and it’s local. People appreciate the difference.” The historical connection between the farmland and Town & Country also distinguishes MiddleField from other local farms. Jitsuzo Nakata, Nakata’s grandfather, bought the property in 1924 from strawberry farmer Sakakichi Sumiyoshi to supplement the family’s income from the barbershop, laundry mat and bathhouse they owned in Winslow. He grew strawberries until World War II, when he and his family were deported to Manzanar during the internment of Japanese-Americans in 1942. A Filipino family tended the farm until the Nakatas’ return. In 1957, Jitsuzo Nakata’s sons John and Mo, with Ed Loverich, opened Town & Country Market, which purchased the land from Larry Nakata’s cousins in 2001. A few years later, after decades of fallowness, the land once again functions as a farm. “Today, 88 years later, to still have that property connected to the family is really special,” said Nakata, who added that it was especially significant to him to have the land produce food once again. “It’s also a reminder that (the) property represents to us the many friendships that we have been able to develop here on the island,” he said. Nakata also praised the island’s many small farms in providing fresh and local food. “To live in a community that can be more self-sufficient and sustainable is really nice to move toward,” Nakata said. “We’re just doing a small part.”
What makes Liberty Bay Auto the “Friendliest Car Store on the Planet”? Kevin has been at Liberty Bay Auto for eleven years and been a part of the community for thirty two. He was the 2004 past president at the Chamber of Commerce, volunteers for Fishline Food Bank and is heavily involved with Poulsbo’s Lion’s Club. When asked what he loves about working at Liberty Bay Auto he states, “Having a GREAT product to sell! Everyone knows that all cars are not created equal and in fact many do not meet our stringent requirements for sales.” He boasts that Liberty Bay Auto’s Owner and Management Team sets a high standard of quality before any vehicle is considered to be sold. He also likes that their service department, one of the best in the state, makes the recommendation whether it can be placed onto the lot. This high standard creates a lot of repeat customers and more importantly... friends! Kevins motto: A company that walks the walk is one that I am proud to be a part of!

FYI POLICE BLOTTER Bainbridge Police reported the following incidents: Sunday, Aug. 5 2:15 p.m. A man living on Tormey Lane reported that he returned home after being gone for two days and found that his home had been burglarized. A guitar amplifier, PlayStation 3 console and five games, and approximately 350 CDs held within a CD wallet were taken. The man’s roommate told him that the guitar amplifier was taken by another roomate to a pawn shop in Tacoma and sold. He also said that his PlayStation fell off his dresser and broke so the roommates tossed it in the trash. Upon looking up the roommate’s name, police discovered he had a warrant from Kitsap County for marijuana possession. After his initial report, the man called police back and said he was able to contact his absent roommate who told him he would reimburse him for the amp. The man did not want to pursue filing a theft report, and rather, only wanted to document the incident. 9:16 p.m. After finding a man passed out on Shannon Drive, police gave him a ride home. Later that day police were called to a residence on Ferncliff Avenue and discovered that the residence was not the intoxicated man’s but his parents’. Apparently, their son had left his truck somewhere in town but forgot where. The parents found it at another property they own. After their son was dropped off earlier by police, they went to retrieve the truck. When they returned the son was trying to cook. He wanted his car keys back, but his father refused to hand them over because he was drunk. The son then shoved his forearm against his father’s throat before pushing him to the ground. The father then called 911 and the son ran away. Police soon found the son trapped in some blackberry bushes behind the house, in an area about 75 feet above the beach. The Bainbridge Island Fire Department was called to help the son get out; he was put in a harness and pulled out. After he was treated for injuries received from his fall, the son was arrested for assault. 11:56 p.m. Police pulled over a DUI driver on Weaver Road and Wyatt Way. The young man behind the wheel initially told police that he did not consume alcohol that day, but soon said that he had two drinks. Later at the jail, breath tests showed blood alcohol levels of .174 and .183. 6:26 p.m. A woman called police about an incident her stepfather experienced on Agate Pass Road. The stepfather, 81, said that he commonly walks the family dog, a black Lab, and that the dog sometimes barks at people who pass by but does not attack or bite, just barks. One day, the stepfather was walking the dog and a neighbor riding a mule across the street became angry when his dog began barking. The neighbor told him he would beat both of them up if they didn’t cut it out. The neighbor got off his mule and began walking toward the 81-year-old stepfather, but a woman walking by told him to stop. He then returned to his mule and rode off. Police contacted the neighbor who said he had no intention of harming the man.

Silverdale 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament The Silverdale Shootout 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament was cofounded by Mark Stevens and Chris Koebelin as a fun, family oriented sports event. Now in its sixth year, the event draws participants of all ages, from fourth-grade to adult. This year’s event is Aug. 18 and 19 at Kitsap Mall in Silverdale. The Silverdale Shootout was first held six years ago at the Silverdale Beach Hotel and continued to call the hotel its home until 2010. In 2011, the event — having outgrown the hotel venue — moved to Old Town Silverdale while scouting out a new permanent home. This year marks the Shootout’s first time in its new, permanent location at the Kitsap Mall.
Marvin Williams of Bremerton, a former Atlanta Hawk now playing for the Utah Jazz, will participate in this year’s Silverdale 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament.
Event organizers say Kitsap Mall is ideal because of its central location, ample parking and large, smooth paved area for the courts. “Working with the mall staff has been terrific and we’re excited to be at our new location” Stevens said. New to the event this year is a partnership with Marvin Williams, NBA player and Bremerton native. Event producers are working with Williams, who has played for the Atlanta Hawks and is now a small forward for the Utah Jazz, to help raise funds for the Marvin Williams Family Center — a local nonprofit dedicated to working with area youth. Williams will sign autographs both days and will
present awards to, and take photographs with, the winning teams. The Shootout consists of three games on Aug. 18 and single-elimination bracket competition on Aug. 19. In addition, players can compete in a 3-point contest and a slam dunk contest. The Shootout features a beer garden presented by Hale’s Ales. Other food and beverage vendors will be represented. Other vendors include Costco, Hawaiian Shaved Ice, Kettle Corn, and Legend Harley-Davidson of Silverdale. Kitsap County Fair & Stampede Top 40 country music artist Jerrod Niemann See WEEK, Page 5

Taking care of certain foot conditions early will prevent them from developing into problems that are more serious, uncomfortable, and difficult to treat. Ingrown toenails may seem minor to many people, but they can pierce the skin and allow bacteria to enter. Pay attention to heel pain too, as it can indicate a fracture, a tight Achilles tendon, or a pinched nerve. It can also be the result of tissue inflammation. Pain in the back of the foot behind the ankle could be Achilles tendonitis. If not treated early, it could get worse and the tendon can rupture. Have ankle sprains treated early, or they can contribute to instability in the ankle. New patients welcome and seen on the same day. Early & late appointments available. Most insurances accepted.

degree and began to plan his next move, which was to launch a small winery called Wind Rose Cellars. He knew he wanted to locate in an area that was not saturated with wineries but also was a tourism draw. He initially focused on the Columbia Gorge town of Hood River, Ore., but rules that required

Co-wrote three singles for Garth Brooks: “Good Ride Cowboy,” “That Girl Is a Cowboy,” and “Midnight Sun.” In 2010, he signed to Arista Nashville’s Sea Gayle division, which is co-owned by Brad Paisley. His debut song, “Lover, Lover,” became his first Top 40 single on the country music charts and in August of that year became his first No. 1 country hit. His “What Do You Want” peaked at No. 4 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. His “One More Drinkin’ Song” reached No. 13 in December 2011.

him to have a working vineyard before he could sell wine were a deterrent. Meanwhile, his wife, Jennifer, got a job with Battelle in the Olympic Peninsula town of Sequim, one of the sunniest places west of the Cascade Mountains. The peninsula and the San Juan Islands are growing wine regions, so they made the decision to move there. Volmut focuses primarily on Italian grape varieties grown in the Columbia Valley, including Barbera, Dolcetto, Primitivo, Nebbiolo and Pinot Grigio. Nebbiolo, grown in the Piedmont region Italy, is considered one of the finest red wine grapes in the world, though few have been successfully made on the West Coast. His first vintage was from the 2009 vintage, and his rosé immediately gained attention from professional wine judges and critics. Volmut has been able to use quality winemaking and out-of-themainstream varieties to quickly distinguish Wind Rose amid the more than 1,300 winemakers in the Pacific Northwest. So far, Volmut produces fewer than 1,000 cases annually, and he has no

Reflections on random things since returning to the U.S. O
h, it’s all random stuff here today. There’s no beginning, middle or end. I can’t tie it up into a neat tidy package but I know for a fact there are at least three, maybe four, people that definitely read this blog, so thank you and I lift my cup of coffee to the memory of your smiles. Well, actually this segues nicely into the fact that my Dad offered to make coffee and my Mom said that he should show us how to use the machine (we didn’t have one in the U.K.). NO! No, having Dad make me
cleverdon chronicles By jennifer cleverdon coffee was one of the reasons I moved stateside, I politely reminded my mother. She said, “I thought that was the case.” Still, he showed Ben and the coffee came out pretty good. Random stuff: n Americans’ use (and abuse) of language. I was talking to a “guidance coun-
selor” at the credit union and she was speaking to us about the major banks and how they “fee” you and how you can get “fee-ed” if you aren’t careful. Use of a noun in a verb-like fashion. Interesting. Also interesting that you have to be careful which cashpoint, or ATM, machine you use. In the U.K., you can use different banks’ machines and not get charged. Not the case over here. n Haven’t emptied out all the suitcases yet, have no mobile/cell phone provider as yet and, dear Lord, it has been two days since I’ve
done a load of laundry. n Sibling stuff. Daisy, 4, suffered a meltdown while playing with Dylan, 9. My mom took her upstairs to have some quiet time. After five minutes, Daisy said she was finished meditating. “Meditating?” my mother enquired. “Yes, Dylan taught me. It helps to clear your mind.” I’ll close with an ad running on television here: “If you or a loved one have been injured by contraceptives, call this number.” Say what?! — Jennifer Supancheck Cleverdon is a writer.

Nebbiolo, Wahluke Slope, $30: The nose leads with black currant, Rainier cherry, sassafras, moist earth and a sliced portobello mushroom. On the attack, it’s light and lively with more black currant, slightly underripe blackberry and leather. The firm tannins and savory finish call for London broil served with a mushroom sauce or a bowl of teriyaki. n Wind Rose Cellars 2009 Bravo Rosso, Washington, $20: This is a blend of Primitivo (46 percent), Barbera (44 percent), Dolcetto (4 percent), Nebbiolo (4 percent) and Cabernet Sauvignon, and it sends out aromas of cherry, cranberry, licorice, rose hips, lilac and cedar. The drink is lively, fruity and lighter bodied than you might expect. There’s a follow-through of cherry and red licorice, joined by strawberry, plum with orange juice acidity. Its tannin structure is remarkably low. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine. Visit www.winepressnw.com.

Reversing a dangerous health trend in America J
ust by looking at the medal count from this year’s Olympics in London, one might think of the United States as a country of athletes. If only it were so. Yes, Americans are still dominating many sports, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that a dismal state of health and physical fitness plagues the country. According to a survey conducted by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2011, the U.S. population is the third heaviest in the world, behind the Pacific islands of Kiribati and American Samoa. More than two thirds of all Americans are overweight; more than one third are obese and struggle with numerous weight- and lifestyle-related illnesses such as diabetes and heart disease. While the obesity crisis continues to worsen across the nation, some parts are harder hit than others. Based
food & HEALTH By Timi GusTafson on a Gallup poll taken in 2011, the city of Evansville, Ind., has the fattest population in the U.S., with nearly 40 percent of its residents being obese. What’s even more alarming is that few Evansvillers seem to see this as a problem. In fact, many take great pride in calling their town “the nicest place to live in the U.S.” Among the things that make Evansville so nice is the annual “West Side Nut Club Fall Festival,” a weeklong binge fest specializing in fried foods, including fried brain sandwiches, a local specialty. The place is also known as a test market of sorts for the restaurant industry. “Ever heard of the McDiner? Did you ever eat pizza at McDonald’s? […] That was just one of the
many perks about dining in Evansville: We were guinea pigs,” wrote Jessica Levco, a writer who grew up in what she still calls her “sweet River City.” Not everyone in town, however, thinks that being “fat and happy” is a sustainable formula. Sam Rogers, a PR manager at a local hospital, says the high rate of obesity creates lots of problems for the city. “When

I’m walking around the halls, here’s what I see: Bigger wheelchairs, bigger beds, and bigger ambulances. We had to get a lift team to move bigger patients. […] The cost of our lift team is $150,000 annually.” But, he added, “Our bariatric business is booming. We have three to five surgeries each week.” Still, city officials say they are determined to have Evansville lose its title as America’s obesity capital. “I don’t think it is particularly good news in our area,”
Stephen Austin said in an interview with the Daily Mail Reporter. Austin is mayor of neighboring Henderson, which is part of the larger metropolitan region that was included in the poll. Indeed, some initiatives to curb Evansville’s particularly high obesity rate have already been taken. Under the leadership of Lacy McNear, a registered dietitian at the local St. Mary’s Medical Center, a program called “Smart Futures Pediatric Weight Management” has been designed to help children and parents to make healthier food choices and engage in more regular exercise. “We’re hoping that [following the program] is a lifestyle change,” McNear said in an interview with the Evansville Courier & Press. Participating families are given consultation in basic dietetics over the course of six weeks. The hope is that when parents see positive changes in their kids, they will follow suit. It could be the beginning of major turnaround. Who knows? Evansville’s story, of
course, is America’s story. On the one hand, there is growing awareness that obesity is a great threat to our public health (and health care system) and that something must be done. On the other hand, there are the ag, food manufacturing, and restaurant industries that cannot conceive changes in our eating habits as anything other than loss of business. So they fight tooth and nail to maintain the status quo. And then, there are ingrained habits and preferences that are hard to break. The vast majority of Americans still consider their food choices as a personal matter and exercise of individual freedom that should not be regulated or interfered with. That’s understandable, but the consequences are plain to see.

remerton — Victoria evans suffered horrific domestic abuse, beyond even the most chilling television courtroom drama. though her story happened more than 30 years ago, her memories are too raw and she’s asked to not have the details printed. “I was in an abusive situation that blew up,” evans said. “And it was life threatening.” thankfully, evans — who is using an alias to protect her family members — survived the nightmarish assault and was able to escape the dangerous relationship. evans credits the Kitsap YWCA ALIVe Shelter with giving her and her two children the support they needed. they lived at the shelter where they were fed, clothed and counseled. “the shelter gave me hope and support and love,” evans said. “And they didn’t even know me.” In its 34th year, the Kitsap YWCA ALIVe Shelter frequently has a waiting list. Along with the shelter, the YWCA offers support with legal advocacy, children’s services, support groups, a clothing bank and help transitioning to permanent housing.

If traipsing in high heels just isn’t your thing, event organizer tracy mcConaughy said it’s perfectly fine to wear more sensible shoes. “YWCA of Kitsap recently launched the ‘there’s no Y without You’ campaign,” mcConaughy said. “... [t]he YWCA serves over 6,000 Kitsap residents each year. this event will be an opportunity to gather, have fun and allow the YWCA of Kitsap to continue to make a difference for families.” A shoe auction will follow the walk, complete with hors d’oeuvres and music. Seattle’s Komo 4 news anchor Denise Whitaker will emcee the evening. All money raised will benefit the YWCA ALIVe Shelter. Bremerton businessman Guy Stitt knows first hand the effects of domestic violence. Growing up in California, he watched as his mother endured abuse almost every weekend for several years. He wonders what life would have been like if his mother had found the help she needed. Instead, Stitt grew up in a stressful situation where his mom would leave for days at a time and Stitt relied on the kindness of others to feed and shelter him. “People don’t want to see domestic abuse. It’s very hard to look at it,” Stitt said. “A lot of people aren’t willing to share, but I’m willing to tell my story

People helping pets...pets helping people. Rowdy is a 6yr old shorthaired brown tabby with bullseye markings.
Rowdy had been a mostly outdoor cat until a relative of his owner realized how dangerous this was for him and helped make him an “indoor cat”. She and her husband worked for months getting Rowdy accustomed to life indoors. Once he decided people weren’t all that bad he became quite friendly. He likes to be petted and brushed as long as you stay away from the tip of his tail-old battle woundsand stop when he’s had enough. Rowdy does ok with other cats but he’d prefer a home where he was the only one, maybe sharing with one other. He’ll be hanging out at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping to meet his new family.

BUILDING A STRONGER KITSAP COUNTY
TREMENDOUS THANKS
A message from Dave Foote, Executive Director
Thank you! The year 2012 will be a year to remember. Not only is it the 75th anniversary of the beginning of United Way in Kitsap, but it is also the year that United Way completed the long and sometimes winding and tedious road to the creation of the United Way NonProfit Center. There are many people to thank for helping the United Way reach this milestone in our history; many individuals and businesses that helped support this effort to remodel our building by pledging their support through capital contributions. Other major contributors to this project include: ■ The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation ■ The Boeing Company ■ Kitsap Credit Union ■ Senator Patty Murray and the Department of Urban Development Special Project ■ Washington State Department of Commerce Capital Projects ■ The Gerald W. Lee Estate ■ The Warren Hicks Estate ■ A bequest by Margaret Ostermeyer ■ KPS Health Plans employee charitable giving committee Most of all, I need to thank the members of the Board of Directors who currently serve and those that served back to 2002, when I was hired as the Executive Director of United Way of Kitsap County. The dream of having this newly remodeled facility was the brainchild of several board members who saw the need to be more visible in the community and to have a place where we could share space with other non-profits. I am thankful to the United Way Board of Directors for the trust they placed
in me and the support they provided that enabled me to lead United Way through to the finish of the dream to create the United Way of Kitsap County Non-Profit Center. I am thankful to all the United Way agencies who also showed their support and confidence in the United Way as we struggled through the recession; trusting in the United Way knowing that we would do everything we could to support their efforts on behalf of those in need throughout Kitsap County, knowing that at the end of this particular journey we would be stronger and more capable of serving our community. To the design team at Rice Fergus Miller, who listened carefully to our sometimes scattered thoughts as we described our vision for this building; thank you. They took our ideas and refined them, turning what was a mishmash of offices into a functional layout for the conference area and offices that is highly organized and efficient. A thanks also goes to our general contractor, Beisley, Inc. These folks were super to work with. They were extremely well prepared and very professional. Their work was superior and their daily communications with us was outstanding. We are very thankful for their dedication to ensuring that we were satisfied with their craftsmanship. Finally, on behalf of myself and the dedicated board members who have been a part of this journey since 2002, I would like to thank all of those individuals too numerous to list in this letter that contributed precious dollars to help us create this center in the heart of downtown Bremerton. Without their trust we would not have been able to complete this journey. As we continue into the future to serve the needs of Kitsap County we look forward to the next 75 years. Thank you Kitsap County! David L. Foote Executive Director United Way of Kitsap County

When David Foote was hired in December 2002, the United Way of Kitsap County was operating out of East Bremerton on Sheridan Road. Jerry Garner, who was First Vice President at the time, suggested that the group move to a more prominent and professional environment. In 2006 discussions regarding moving to a new location began to take on serious consideration. The board considered moving the United Way of Kitsap County to Silverdale. After further investigation it was determined that the cost would be too great and the project in Silverdale was scrapped. At that point the board began looking for existing buildings that could be purchased and remodeled. The search for leasable space uncovered a new listing, the Cascade Building at 647 4th Street in Downtown Bremerton. In January 2007 the United Way of Kitsap County made an offer on the building and began the process of conducting a feasibility study to gauge community support on the purchase of the building and subsequent remodel. The acquisition created the United Way of Kitsap County Non-Profit Center. The concept was to create a building that could be leased to other non-profits at below-market rents and provide on-site conference space for training, seminars and conferences for building tenants and the community as well. At the same time Foote secured, through a partnership with the Kitsap Regional Library,

the Foundation Center and Cooperating Collection libraries. This provided an asset on the Kitsap and Olympic Peninsulas for non-profit agencies the ability to do capacity building research. Prior to this required traveling to King or Pierce counties. The United Way of Kitsap County became only one of approximately 12 United Ways across the country to have a library on site. On July 31, 2006 the deal was closed and on August 6 the move-in began. Shortly after moving into the building one of the tenants vacated. This gave the United Way the opportunity to lease space to their first nonprofit tenant, Lutheran Community Services. The next tenant was Catholic Community Services. It has since continued to grow.
In late 2007 the United Way of Kitsap County began planning its capital campaign, only to run into the recession. Raising capital dollars was extremely difficult. “At one point we thought that we may have to put the project on hold after being turned down by both the Bremerton and Kitsap County Community Development Block Grant Programs and the Seattle Birkenfeld Trust,” said Foote. “We began talking with Rice Fergus Miller, who started putting our ideas on paper. After going through several designs with cost analysis we finally decided on a plan to remodel the United Way space on the first floor as well as some of the vacant space on the second floor.” In 2011 the United Way of Kitsap County
secured a HUD special projects grant for $1,217,500, a Washington State Department of Commerce Foundation grant for $605,000 and a Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation grant for $120,000. The Boeing Employees Fund provided additional funds, along with trust and estate dollars, in addition to $400,000 the United Way of Kitsap County was able to raise during their capital campaign. In June 2011 the United Way moved into a smaller space inside the building to prepare for construction. In late November 2011 the project was put out to bid and work began in earnest in January 2012. The building remodel is now complete. There is a fully functional non-profit center with two conference rooms on the first floor that can convert into one large open space, seating up to 75 individuals. Two smaller conference rooms on the second floor can accommodate between five and 15 people. All of the space is available to tenants of the building as well as to the community at large. Tenants in the building include: n Lutheran Community Services n Catholic Community Services n Leadership Kitsap n Washington CASH n A+ Advantage Counseling n Puget Sound Renters Association n Mario D. White: Fully Alive Therapy

What will your CEO do to support United Way?
Elliot Gregg
CEO/President, United Way Supporter, Numbers Guru
For 75 years, the United Way of Kitsap County has been helping friends and neighbors build a stronger community. Inspired by their impact, our staff, and our CEO, work hard to find new ways to lend a hand every year.
UNITED WAY OF KITSAP COUNTY - COMMUNITY IMPACT AREAS 1. Helping children and youth succeed: We envision a Kitsap County where all children are safe, nurtured and valued and are provided the opportunity to succeed as individuals and to develop life skills.
2. Building caring communities: We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals and families have adequate food, clothing, shelter and are financially stable.
3. Promoting health and wellness: We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals are safe and have access to basic health care and wellness services.
Once, our CEO even agreed to sell duct tape, by the inch, that was used to duct tape him to a wall. This year, employees rallied behind Elliot as he agreed to auction off time spent on a billboard to help strengthen the efforts of United Way. Today, that’s where you’ll find him. Honk and show your support as you drive by the HWY 3 reader board near the Kitsap Way off-ramp from 2:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on August 17. We encourage you to LIVE UNITED. Give, advocate, or volunteer by visiting unitedwaykitsap.org
4. Supporting vulnerable and aging populations: We envision a Kitsap County where adults with disabilities and aging seniors are provided quality assistance and care. We envision a Kitsap County where all individuals have the ability to be self-sufficient and live as independently as possible.

Kitsap County employees raise money for the United Way of Kitsap County through an event they call ‘Kitsap Idol’. Employees hold a potluck and “sell” lunches while individuals perform karaoke. The winners are judged by the total of donations in their individual tip jars. During the lunch and karaoke the Kitsap County employees hold a silent auction. All of the proceeds from the lunch, karaoke and auction support the United Way of Kitsap County.
Kitsap Credit Union CEO Elliot Gregg allowed himself to be duct taped to a wall in order to raise pledge dollars for the United Way. Gregg raised pledges by selling lengths of duct tape. When all the tape was applied, he was completely stuck to the wall and from there proceeded to give his monthly report to the board while suspended from the wall.
NATIONAl FOCUS/lOCAl FOCUS Congratulations to united Way on 75 years of serving Bremerton and the Kitsap community. The City appreciates your new look on our new 4th Street. Mayor Patty Lent
The United Way of America is a nonprofit organization that works with close to 1,300 local United Way offices across the country. Based in Alexandria, Virginia, the United Way functions as a means to pool the resources and efforts of fundraising and support of a wide swath of charitable organizations. Each United Way office works to meet the needs of the local community in which it is based. By identifying community issues relating to education, income and health, the United Way of Kitsap County works in partnership with schools, government agencies,
businesses, organized labor, financial institutions,community development corporations, voluntary and neighborhood associations and the faith community. The specific mission of the United Way of Kitsap County is to mobilize community resources to improve people’s lives. The future focus for Kitsap County is on health: Through Project Access Northwest, the United Way of Kitsap County, in cooperation with Harrison Medical Center, seeks to meet the needs of the uninsured and under-insured here in Kitsap County.
ONE gIFT hElPS, bUT EvErYONE’S gIFT TOgEThEr CAN ChANgE lIvES. n Your United Way investment, because it is magnified by the investments of others, has the power to bring about change that matters in your community. n When you contribute, you help more than one person or one charity. United Way is the collective power of people working toward long-term solutions, not short-term fixes.

UNITED WAY SAVED MY LIFE. I was raised by a system of private and public agencies who took in kids like me and who were supported by the then called Community Chest. Today that organization is called United Way. My mother and father were alcoholics who could not care for my brother and sister and I. When I was six years old they abandoned us and left us in a Catholic orphanage in New Orleans. The orphanage was supported by the local Community Chest. We stayed there for two years and were looked after by the nuns. We lived in a big room with lots of other kids and slept in bunk beds . It seems like we ate gumbo every night and played in the back yard on tires swinging from ropes attached to a tree in the back yard. We missed our parents even though they had not been good parents and had beat us many times when they were drinking. Without the orphanage, I am certain we would have been on the street. After a couple of years, we were taken in by an aunt and uncle who served as our guardians and were paid a small sum by the State of Texas. We moved 13 times before I was 12. When I was 13, my aunt and uncle moved to Seattle, Washington and asked if I would like to join them. I was living in New Mexico at the time with a foster parent. I agreed to move to Seattle and when we first arrived I could barely read or write and had no friends. It was not long before I started hanging out at the Wallingford Boys & Girls Club, a United Way agency. I remember playing for a basketball coach who was a tough old truck driver who showed me love and taught me a lot about life. I will never forget him and remember getting the first award of my life at the club - it was called a
Certificate of Merit and I still have it 60 years later. I loved the Boys and Girls Club and later in life went onto to become the President/CEO of the King County Boys and Girls Club. In my junior year in high school my aunt and uncle announced they were moving to Washington D.C. I told them I wanted to stay in Seattle and finish high school. I was the quarterback on the football team and had my first girlfriend. Once again I had to find a place to stay and once again I was helped by an agency supported by United Way. I was able to get into a foster home my junior year. My senior year I lived mostly with friends, took my showers at the Wallingford Boys and Girls Club, and even had to live out of my car the last month of my senior year. Without foster care and the local Boys and Girls club I would have been a street kid and would not have had the life I have had. With the help of others I was able to graduate from the University of Washington, and I have been the Mayor of both Bellevue and Bremerton and worked for the Boys and Girls Club for 25 years. So I have spent my life trying to give back to my community which I learned from growing up in a community that gave me the support I needed to get through a difficult time. I have made a financial contribution to the United Way Campaign every year for the past 45 years because I know from a personal basis how important it is to have a safety net for those who need help. We are the United Way and We are the Community Chest that only exists because WE care about our neighbors. Cary Bozeman (Former Mayor of Bremerton)

aroundkitsap BAinBridge islAnd review Proposed car tab fee gets initial approval: The Bainbridge Island City Council has given initial approval to a proposal to charge a $20 car tab license fee on all island vehicles. The final approval on the proposal could be less than two weeks away. An ordinance to form a transportation benefit district that would collect the fee when cars are registered was given an initial and unanimous approval at the council’s Aug. 8 meeting. A public hearing for the proposed transportation benefit district has been scheduled for Aug. 22. The council is expected to take a final vote on creating the new taxing district and car tab fee at that time. If the council approves the benefit district by the end of August, islanders could see a $20 fee imposed on their vehicles as soon as February. The purpose of the district is to raise money to pay for road repairs and other transportation projects. The city estimates that the fee could produce approximately $330,686 each year. — BainbridgeReview.com
Bremerton PAtriot Bremerton man arrested for making “Aurora” threats: Bremerton resident Tracy Lee Wischhoefer, 26, was charged Aug. 13 in Kitsap County District Court with felony harassment after allegedly making threats on Facebook to kill people. He allegedly cited the Aurora massacre in which 12 people were killed in a Colorado movie theater showing “The Dark Knight Rises.” The weekend threat from Wischhoefer is the second from a Bremerton man in less than a month. Both made death threats on Facebook while citing the Colorado shooting. Nicholas Adam Purcell, also 26, was arrested July 28 after making threats on the popular social networking site to “top the Aurora Massacre.” Bremerton police interviewed Wischhoefer Aug. 12 at Anthony’s restaurant where he works in downtown Bremerton, but made no arrest. Kitsap County Sheriff’s Office deputies, meanwhile, spoke to his father and went to his residence where they saw weapons, body armor and ammunition in plain
sight. Deputies ultimately arrested him on an outstanding misdemeanor warrant and also booked him for felony harassment. The sheriff’s office was originally brought into the case “on an agency assist” to the Bremerton Police Department. — BremertonPatriot.com
CentrAl KitsAP rePorter Donation brings the living dead and Santa Claus to library: Flesh-eating zombies have completed their invasion of the Kitsap Regional Library system, and they are not alone. The zombies have been joined by musical muppets, pointy eared Vulcans and even Santa Claus himself thanks to a donation of 4,500 DVDs made to the library. The DVDs, donated by Screen Life Games, a Seattle based gaming company that went out of business late last year, will go to replace worn or missing copies of items in the library catalog and also to enhance the library’s collection. KRL Collection Manager John Fossett said many of the DVDs were of out-ofprint or difficult to find items or simply completed series in the library’s collection. — CentralKitsapReporter. com
Friday, August 17, 2012 land Strike Team consists of Gig Harbor Fire & Medic One, Riverside Fire & Rescue, Key Peninsula Fire Department, Pierce County Fire District 13, and East Pierce Fire & Rescue. King County and North Kitsap firefighters went directly to the fire line to assist until reinforcements got there, Smith said. Those firefighters are now working to protect structures. It’s the first time this year that firefighters from North Kitsap have assisted elsewhere under the Washington State Fire Services Resource Mobilization Plan. The Taylor Bridge Fire is located six miles east of Cle Elum on State Route 10, milepost 90 in Kittitas County. Washington State Patrol Chief John Batiste authorized the mobilization of state firefighting resources at 3:30 p.m., Aug. 13, at the request of Kittitas County Fire District 7. — NorthKitsapHerald.com
Port orChArd indePendent Local pastor intervenes in burglary: The pastor of
a local church helped stop a burglary the first week of August, according to a Port Orchard Police report. The suspect, 36-year-old Adam Dunn of Port Orchard, was arrested for second-degree burglary and possession of a burglary tool. He is held in Kitsap County Jail in lieu of $100,000 bond. According to the report, Terry Baker, pastor of The Christian Life Center in Port
Orchard, called police when he saw a man with a crowbar enter a building close to the Christian Life Center. The pastor first thought the man was the homeowner’s son, but called police after he saw the man pry open the garage door with the crowbar, police said. Port Orchard Police and Kitsap County Sheriff’s deputies surrounded the single-family home on

Best Housing Market in Years
Now is the Time to Buy!
Why rent when you can own?
Historic low interest rates!
The real estate market has taken a beating and home values have fallen pretty dramatically. The question is when will it hit the bottom and start to rebound? Well, the gurus are telling us it could be a full year or two before things improve. When the gurus are saying you shouldn’t buy, that is the time to DEFINITELY buy. This is known as contrarian investing. It is based on the idea that the only real way to make big money is to not follow the herd. The real estate market is going to rebound. It may drop a bit more, but how low can it really go? If you buy today, you are getting a great deal. Even if it takes a year or two to rebound, the price you pay today is going to be a pittance compared to the value of your home in 5 years. By that time, the real estate gurus on television will be revising their past statements about when the market would rebound.
