Empty Bremerton marina continues to be a hot topic

The topic of the Bremerton marina’s 65 percent vacancy rate has led to heated discussions between the city and port commissioners over what form of management is best to get more boats to call the marina home. By Leslie Kelly lkelly@soundpublishing.com

Port of Bremerton Commissioner Roger Zabinski took a moment at the end of Wednesday’s port meeting to let the other commissioners know he’d had a conversation with Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent. But his summary of the call was described much differently than the mayor remembered. “She raised her voice at me,” Zabinski told the other commissioners. “She said we needed to do our job and fill the

(Bremerton) marina. And she said she thought the marina was filthy.” Zabinski’s comments came after the commissioners were reminding those attending the meeting of the ribbon cutting at the Water Street Boat Ramp at the Port Orchard marina, which happened the following morning. The commissioners were sharing how happy they were to have that project completed and talking about Harper Pier and upcoming projects. But Zabinski said that the commissioners should not forget the work that needs to be done at the Bremerton

marina. “I’m the commissioner for that area and it’s important that we not forget the work that needs to be done to fill that marina,” he said. Lent was not at the port meeting, but on Wednesday morning, Lent acknowledged that she had had a conversation with Zabinski the day prior to the port meeting. “He called me to talk about meeting with the (city) council,” Lent said. “He told me he wanted to give an update to the council about what was happening See MARINA, A13

Region braces for federal spending cuts By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com

Folks at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and beyond were bracing this week for the federal government’s across-the-board cuts known as sequestration to kick in on Friday. It’s not just public sector workers, though, that are likely to feel the pinch. “The people who run the convenience stores, the service stations, the dry cleaners, the restaurants, things like that - they’re going to feel an impact too,” noted

Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus during a recent visit to Bremerton. Some 29,000 civilian Department of Defense workers, including more than 13,000 in Kitsap County, are facing furloughs should the sequestration deadline not be met this week, reducing gross pay by about $173.4 million. The Navy, meanwhile, will face more than $4 billion in cuts above and beyond the $4.6 billion shortfall they are already plagued with due to a continuing resolution in Congress rather an actual budget. “Every day that Congress

refuses to do its job is another day thousands of middle class jobs are put at risk,” Representative Derek Kilmer said this week. “Congress must act before Friday. Families in Washington State can’t afford these non-strategic across-the-board cuts. I call on my colleagues to stop this self-inflicted wound and do what’s right for our economy and national security. Congress must replace this mindless approach with a balanced plan to address our long-term financial sustainability.” According to Kilmer and the White House, the

impacts of sequestration will far-reaching and acute in Washington state. It will have an impact education, environmental quality, military readiness, child care and more. Even folks that don’t have a job already, but are looking for one will be hit hard. Washington will lose about $661,000 in funding for job search assistance, referral, and placement, meaning around 24,510 fewer people will get the help and skills they need to find employment. Local educators were espeSee CUTS, A13

The City of Bremerton has a long way to go on its path to revitalization, but an internationally renowned expert in branding, downtown development and marketing laid out a roadmap last week. “Your problem is you haven’t really given us (folks in Seattle and the other side of the Sound) a reason to come over here,” said Roger Brooks, the expert that has made two trips to Bremerton in recent weeks. “We’ve got everything over there that you’ve shown us over here. That’s why you do branding. What sets you apart? You’ve got the Navy, now what? How’s it working for you? Has it revitalized downtown?” City officials and elected officials from Bremerton and Port Orchard gathered last week in a reserved auditorium at the recently opened SEEfilm Bremerton Cinema to hear from Brooks, who has crisscrossed the country and the globe for 30 years, about ways to recruit more businesses and tourists to the area. He also visited Bremerton late last year for a similar visit with a wider audience of residents and business owners. Jerry McDonald, a Harborside Condominium resident who arranged the Brooks visits, has so far been pleased by the local reaction. “I think that it’s ignited a lot of interest,” McDonald said. “A lot of people are talking about it and it’s got a lot of people thinking. I think we can do it. It’s just a matter of getting the right people going.”

For McDonald, any talk about revitalizing Bremerton, needs to include a discussion about Port Orchard. “My thinking on this whole package is to market both cities at the same time for the same reasons so that people bring more money than they go home with,” he said.

Roger Brooks, an internationally renowned development expert, made two recent trips to Bremerton. Br o o k s , w ho claims his company, Destination Development International, has recruited more than $2.8 billion in new tourism development projects in 45 states, across Canada and Europe, sounded a similar refrain. “If you don’t hang out in downtown Bremerton and Port Orchard, neither will we as visitors,” he said. “This is the age of third places — home, work and the third place where you go to hang out. Starbucks built an entire brand out of third places.” McDonald said he was one of the original buyers of downtown Bremerton’s See REVITALIZATION, A13

CK student pages for Mason County senator By WES MORROW wmorrow@soundpublishing.com

Every year, students between the ages of 14 and 17 travel to the Capitol Building in Olympia to serve the Washington State Legislature as pages. These students spend a week in Olympia running documents between legislators and legislative staff, but they’re more than just file runners. Along with their delivery duties, pages also participate in a development program called page school. “When they’re not doing duties such as delivering and working on the floor, they get to go visit things such as the State Supreme Court,” said Joe Jackson, with the Majority Coalition Caucus. In the page school process, the students

learn about how government works and about the legislative process in Washington state. Central Kitsap High School sophomore Brittany Mills acted as page to the President Pro Tempore of the State Senate Tim Sheldon in February. Sen. Sheldon’s district mostly covers Mason County but dips into Kitsap County, going as far as Highway 3 near Chico. Brittany transferred at the beginning of the school year from Klahowya, citing the high school’s impressive AP program as one reason. She lives in Seabeck, inside the northeastern portion of Sheldon’s district. Because Sen. Sheldon was busy with legislative business, Brittany said she

was only supposed to meet with him for five minutes, but the two ended up talking for nearly half an hour. According to Brittany, Sheldon took her on a tour of the Capitol. “It was way longer than I expected,” she said. “He told me a couple stories about things that had happened in the capitol building.” Sheldon was one of two Democrats earlier this year to join Republicans in the Legislature and form the Majority Coalition Caucus, with 25 votes, over the Democrats’ 24. From Feb. 10 to 15, Brittany worked for Sheldon and the senate. She and 19 other highschool students arrived in Olympia that Sunday to get the layout of the capitol campus and go through a crash course of their duties. “On Monday morning they hit the ground running,” Jackson said. The students stay with host families in Olympia and work from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day until their duties are complete Friday evening. “One of the things (I did) was running errands

Brittany Mills stands with Sen. Tim Sheldon on Feb. 14. in the legislative building,” Brittany said. “That was my favorite part of it … there wasn’t really a slow moment.” During the fifth week of the legislative session, Brittany and the other pages were able to sit in on a State Supreme Court hearing, Dean v. Fishing Company of Alaska. Seeing the court in person gave Brittany a perspective she would not have received otherwise, she said. “I thought the people would be arguing with the judge and the judge would have to silence them,” Brittany said. “The

Supreme Court hearing was very organized and professional.” During her time in the state’s capitol, Brittany met a number of other students in the page program. The 20 pages spent much of the week together, working on errands or learning as a group about the legislative process. “I actually became really good friends with a lot of them just over the week,” she said. “The day after I got back I went on (Facebook) and three people had already sent friend requests.” Brittany said she hopes to attend Brigham Young

University after high school. She wants to go to medical school but said music is her true passion. She already plays the flute, trombone and piano and is learning the guitar. However, she said, the piano is her favorite. A turn-of-the-century piano sits in the legislature’s reception room, Brittany said, and she was allowed to play it momentarily during her visit. She played a piece she had composed herself. “For how old it is, it sounded really beautiful,” she said. Pages perform a number of duties and gain a new perspective on state government during their week in Olympia. For Brittany, she said one of the most eye-opening experiences was when she and the other pages had to craft their own mock bill. “It was not at all what I expected,” she said. “I had a basic understanding of the legislature and how that worked, but it was pretty different. Like when we got to make our own bill — there’s a lot more to the process than I thought. It’s really hard.”

Honoring a local deputy and thanking others

IN OUR OPINION

It started out as a call that an armed man was acting strangely with a young teenage girl outside of a Walmart in Port Orchard. Two Kitsap County deputies were called to the scene and approached the man asking for identification. The man ran and as he did, he drew a gun and started shooting at the officers. Both officers were hit. A third officer came as backup and began firing at the suspect from near her patrol car. She abandoned her cover to protect her colleagues who were still vulnerable where they’d fallen. She shot the suspect in the leg sending him to the ground. The young girl ran to the suspect and he shot her and then shot himself. The third officer, Krista McDonald, secured the suspect and worked to save the girl’s life. She then performed first aid on the two downed officers. McDonald showed great bravery with her actions. And last week her actions were shared with the nation when she was awarded the Medal of Valor by Vice President Joe Biden. “You’re the heart and the soul and the spine of the nation,” Biden said at the ceremony, “and the really sad thing is that it takes an extraordinary act for the community to rise up and recognize what you do. “ Last year in this nation, 128 law enforcement officers lost their lives in the line of duty. Every morning when officers put on the uniform and walk out their door to go to work, they know there is a chance that they won’t return. That’s true for all of us. But in the case of police officers and sheriff deputies chances are greater they will meet with circumstances that will put them in harms way. Despite McDonald’s efforts the young girl did not survive. But both deputies recovered. “In protecting her fellow officers and doing everything she could to help that girl, Deputy McDonald exhibited extraordinary courage under fire,” Mary Lou Leary, acting assistant attorney general, said at the ceremony. Deputy McDonald is a hero. She performed her job extraordinarily that day in January 2011. We owe her our gratitude as residents of Kitsap County. We also owe a sincere “thank you” to all law enforcement officers who risk their own personal safety to ensure ours. It’s a great time to be proud of all our local officers and to tell them so when we see them patrolling our streets. And it’s a perfect time to say how proud we are of Deputy McDonald.

WSP memorial dedicated to Trooper Tony By KEVAN MOORE kmoore@soundpublishing.com

Friends, family and members of the law enforcement community gathered this past Friday in Bremerton for the unveiling of a memorial to slain Washington State Patrol Trooper Tony Radulescu. The morning was marked by wind, rain and falling tears, but also smiles from those gathered who fondly remembered a trooper who was known for his smile. “There’s no way we’ll ever be able to repay Trooper Radulescu,” said Washington State Patrol Chief John Batiste. But, he added, “This memorial will help us each and

every day remember the great works of a great man.” Trooper Tony, as he was affectionately known, was shot and killed during an early morning traffic stop Feb. 23, 2012, in Gorst. The granite memorial, which includes a photo of Radulescu and his famous smile, sits next to the Washington State Patrol’s District 8 headquarters on Werner Road in Bremerton. It also features a stone path and landscaping. Born in Romania in 1967, Radulescu immigrated to the United States with his father when he was 14. He grew up in New York, on Brooklyn’s Bushwick

Avenue, with two brothers and a younger sister. After joining the Army and serving in the Gulf War, Radulescu began a decorated career for the Washington State Patrol, stationed in Bremerton. His heavy accent, his proficiency in different languages, including Romanian, Korean and Spanish, and his ever present smile left a lasting impression on his comrades throughout his 16 year career. A resident of Port Orchard, he attended Christian Life Center Church on Mitchell Road. Radulescu was 44 at the time of his death and the 27th state trooper to be killed in the line of duty. He was shot dur-

ing the traffic stop by Joshua Blake, a 28-yearold felon, who later shot himself as law enforcement closed in on him at a South Kitsap home where he was hiding. Blake’s ex-girlfriend, a passenger in Blake’s vehicle at the time of the shooting and four others were eventually convicted and sentenced for helping

him evade police following Radulescu’s murder. Megan Mollet, 18 at the time of the shooting, was in the front seat when Blake told her to turn away before he shot Radulescu. She and Blake then fled to a Sidney Road home in Port Orchard. She eventually lied to police, saying she did not know

Page A5

Blake and not been with him during the shooting. She was subsequently sentenced to 12 months in jail. Jessi Leigh Foster, 32, who was Blake’s ex-girlfriend and the mother of his child, was sentenced to six months in jail after pleading guilty to rendering criminal assistance to him after the shooting.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR A history lesson on the U.S. Postal Service The political “destruction” of an institution mandated to exist by the U.S. Constitution is coming to a location near you. Why is this happening? What are some real consequences of the loss of the United States Postal Service? In the 1970s, because of the rising political power of private “for profit” corporations such as Fed Ex, the USPS became “partially” divorced from the U.S. government. The USPS was ordered by Congress to implement a “nonprofit” business plan which would modernize itself and at the same time become totally free of “all” taxpayer support needed to accomplish this modernization and the operation of the USPS itself. There was a catch to this legislation. Congress gave itself full oversight and bureaucratic control over the daily decisions and fate of the USPS. Through hard work and diligent enlightened leadership, the USPS was able to weather this storm and became the most efficient, fiscally sound, unionized and

efficient shipper of mail and other goods in the United States. All the profits of the USPS were targeted to maintain a high quality of service and the surplus was sent to the common coffers of the people of the United States of America. In 2006, and in the final minutes of the Republican control of the U.S. Congress, a law was passed and quickly signed into law by the sitting Republican president. This law, disguised as USPS improvement, was actually designed to destroy the USPS. The law, and draconian poison pills within, required that the USPS fund 70 years of USPS worker health and retirement benefits in just 10 years. No other public entity, private business, or corporation in recorded human history has been hobbled by a fiscal decree like this. As a result the USPS appears to be losing massive amounts of money. The uninformed U.S. voter is led to believe, by trusted media outlets, that the likes of “financially flush” FedEx and UPS should be allowed to take over all mail delivery. If there is not a massive public outcry, in support

of removal of the 2006 anti-USPS legislation from the books, those who live in Holly could well be forced to go to a mail box in Bremerton for their mail, packages and mail order prescription medicine. If you think that the likes of “for profit” corporations such as Fed-EX and UPS will deliver your mail to your home or “remote” mail box for what you are paying now, think again. U.S. Congressman Darrell Issa, (R) 49th Calif., is leading this persecution and apparently will not relent until after the last shovel full of dirt is delivered to the cold grave of the USPS. Perhaps some of our state’s republican and democratic political delegations to the U.S. Congress will find the courage to join us and get “very” vocal in support of “removing” this draconian 2006 anti-USPS legislation. If this draconian antiUSPS legislation is allowed to remain as law, you and I could have one thing in common -- adjoining mail boxes located in a building someplace in Kitsap County.

BHS students showcase energy efficiency By WES MORROW wmorrow@soundpublishing.com

Business and community leaders descended on Bremerton High School last week to participate in the school’s second annual Energy Week event. Energy Week is a threeday event at the high school, which started Wednesday morning and culminated in a series of presentations and competitions on Friday. Bremerton partnered with Washington Business Week in 2012 in order to bring its expertise to the high school. Business Week is a nonprofit organization that was founded in 1976 by then president of Central Washington University James Brooks. The nonprofit’s goal is to better prepare high school students for life after graduation in the business world. It does most of this work

through summer sessions at Washington state’s four year universities, but occasionally brings its method directly to a select number of high schools each year. When Business Week and Bremerton teamed up, the two groups decided to take a specific approach and focus not just on business, but on sustainability and green business. “We feel that really is where jobs are going to be coming from in the future,” said Emily Wise, who teaches green technology and sustainable design at BHS. Bremerton has a number of classes and programs focused on the environment and sustainability, including Advanced Placement Environmental Science and Wise’s green technology class. “We’re committed to making our school known for its

year students from Wise and Faxon’s classes, as well as students in engineering and financial literacy programs, participated in the multi-day event. More than 100 students from these classes were split up and placed into nine groups for the event. Each group was given an advisor from the community and set to work on a green energy business pitch. All nine groups were given

specific objectives to do a home energy audit, build a sustainable home model, build a working wind turbine and give an oral pitch to potential investors. Community leaders like Bremerton Mayor Patty Lent and representatives from Puget Sound Energy played the role of investors. In a mock trade show on Friday, the investors filed into the BHS library with handfuls of fake cash to invest in the most

promising groups. Wise and Faxon said the Energy Week event helps their students understand the practical aspect of sustainable energy and design. They also said it helps students begin to take ownership of a business model, meet specific deadlines and work with adults. Students filed out to eat lunch after the investment portion, returning 30 minutes later for the event finale — the wind turbine power lift. Each group brought up its functioning wind turbine, which hauled a miniature bucket of nuts and bolts powered by nothing but the air from a fan. A group named FEET, Friendly Environmental Energy Technology, received the most financial backing from investors in order to win the trade show with the motto “Reducing our carbon footprint one step at a time.” FEET proved to be a sound investment when its wind turbine took top honors by hauling the most weight of any group. The group Evergreen won the board presentation competition by having the best oral sales pitch.

Washington’s poet shows kids they can follow their passions

Wes Morrow/Staff Photo

Washington state Poet Laureate Kathleen Flenniken helps Josephne Osquisa, Kahlisha Grant and Alsaxia Rosario with their “Instructions to the artist” poems on Friday, Feb. 22. By WES MORROW wmorrow@soundublishing.com

With students gathered, their pens in hand, the volunteer spoke. “I want you to show me well enough with your words that I can see it with my brain,” teaching volunteer Sunny Summers told students at Fairview Junior High on Friday. Summers was helping students with a project given to them by a visiting writer, Kathleen Flenniken. They were told to write instructions to an artist. Flenniken is the poet laureate of Washington state

– basically, she is the state’s officially sponsored poet. She visited Fairview last week as part of her larger goal to speak to students in all 39 of Washington’s counties. She stood at the back of the library, a few dozen students seated in front of her, while she talked about artistic expression and the importance of pursuing your passion. “Exposing students to the idea that writing poetry can be fun,” Flenniken said, “It’s another means of expression that’s available to them.” Flenniken lived the first part of her life as an engi-

neer and hydrologist in Richland, Wa. She said she didn’t even understand that she wanted to be a poet until she was already in her thirties. “I didn’t realize it until later in life, and I wish I’d found it earlier,” she said. That late discovery may be part of the reason Flenniken wants to work with as many students in Washington as she can — to help them find their preferred means of expression earlier than she did. “Every person needs an outlet for their creativity,” Flenniken told the assembled students.

Flenniken read a poem called, “Instructions to the portrait artist” by Billy Collins, a former United States poet laureate. The poem is written as instructions to an imaginary artist who would draw Collins’ portrait. Flenniken then had students write their own instructions to an artist. Trisha Sieck, an eighthgrader, was one of those students. She read her poem in front of the gathered group of students. “Perhaps I shall have you paint a picture of my personality,” it started, “maybe I, with that of only a head with no eyes, as to see what’s inside.” Sieck’s poem takes up a full page of her journal. Its description ranges from her physical appearance to her

personality to the images in the background. “It’s just from myself,” she said. “This isn’t everything about me, but it’s most of it.” Kathleen Davis, a teacher at Fairview, asked Flenniken if she would be willing to come speak with the students. Davis said she works to bring in as many outside role models for the students as possible, to expose them to different opportunities. Davis had teachers gather a list of students who are passionate about writing. She narrowed that list down to eight students and organized a time where Flenniken could meet with that small group of students and share her knowledge. “It’s not often in the busy day of a junior high student

they get to have the opportunity to speak one-on-one with a writer,” Davis said. One of her biggest hopes for the students listening to Flenniken was that they would see it’s possible to make a living and follow your passions at the same time, Davis said. Washington joined several other states in 2007 when the legislature passed a bill to appoint a state poet laureate. Poet Laureates of Washington serve two year terms. Flenniken was appointed in February of 2012, so she will continue to serve the state for one more year. She said she was on track with her goals, visiting 21 counties in her first year, leaving 18 for year number two.

Time to think about pruning your roses By Joe Machcinski

It’s time to get out those sharp pruners and disinfectant wipes and prune your roses. Make sure you have some tough gloves and long sleeved shirt on and it would be a good idea to wear some eye protection, too. As the rosebuds start to swell, get a mental image of how you want them to look. There are many cultivars of roses and understanding which one you have is important. If I were to prune a floribunda or hybrid tea rose, I look to have three or four good strong canes, about eight to 12 inches above graft. When pruning make sure the canes are well spaced and the buds you prune are facing outward. Strip all the leaves off, making sure you get all things clean underneath. Make sure all dead canes are out too, as well as anything coming below the graft. Shrub roses are easier to prune. I first prune out all dead canes and those that are bridle and non-productive. Then, I look at any major

cross branches and prune them to the ground. At waist level, deadhead the old blooms. Climbing and rambling roses have to have all the dead canes out. Do you have it trained on a structure? I like to have a cane or two spaced along the structure. If you like you can take the old cane out and train a new one. The key is to prune to make way for good air flow. After pruning it is time to clean up all debris and weeds out of the bed. I like to mulch with some good aged compost. If you like you can sprinkle some rabbit food before the compost. Remember, feeding the soil will help the plant better battle the insects and disease problems that occur. I’ve been asked if you can use newspaper as a weed block. Many newspapers now use soy based ink so it is safe. I like to use cardboard. Weed the area and lay down the newspaper or cardboard. Then mulch. It’s a nice organic way to fight the battle of weeds. Happy Gardening. Gardener Joe

Sharing her sexual assault story leads to healing By Leslie Kelly

Here are the numbers:

lkelly@soundpublishing.com

It was supposed to be a night out with friends. Dinner, music and a few drinks. Then a bit of blackjack at the casino. But it turned out to be something very different. For Tami Chesson, 42, it was the beginning of the year that changed her life. Chesson, a Kitsap County resident, was drugged and raped on the night of March 3 into the morning of March 4, 2012, in Pierce County. But instead of letting the past year keep her a victim, it’s made her strong. Chesson is a motivational speaker who tells her rape recovery story hoping to help others. “I knew I could have stayed at home and never spoken about what happened,” Chesson said. “But that would be giving my rapist all the power. And I wasn’t going to do that.” Chesson described her rape happening after she had a few drinks at the casino. “I always keep my drink with me and I never take a drink that I haven’t seen the bartender make and hand directly to me,” she said. “But for some reason this night I left my drink a few times and that was it.” Chesson awoke early the next morning in a hotel room with her rapist on top of her. She was in a daze and didn’t know what was happening. Soon the man left and she realized what had happened. She’d been drugged and repeatedly raped throughout the night. She gathered herself together and went home. It wasn’t until 36 hours later that she gained the courage to report the rape to police and go to a hospital. Because of the time that had lapsed much of the evidence of her rape was lost. She was told she had been drugged, but it wasn’t clear with what. The police didn’t secure the videotapes at the casino and hotel to identify the man. After a time, her case was closed and the rapist wasn’t ever identified. Despite her family and friends telling her not to, she went back to the casino to try to find the man herself. But then she decided it was time to let it go. “I had to release it,” Chesson said. “I had to go on with my life because if I didn’t, the rapist would win.” She returned to work in the restaurant industry. She went places with her two children. And she worked out at the Haselwood YMCA in

Kitsap County Sheriffs officials said there were 30 adult rapes reported in the county in 2012. That number was up from 23 the previous year. There were 29 reported in 2010 and 31 reported in 2009. Additionally, there were 27 rapes of children reported in 2012, compared to 28 in 2011, and 43 in 2010.

Tami Chesson speaks at a training session at Naval Base Kitsap last year. She tells her story to promote more understanding for victims of domestic violence. Silverdale. “At the Y, I was around people and they were nice to me,” she said. “I didn’t have to talk about what happened or think about what happened. It was an escape. It was like I had a normal life again.” Because she was so taken with the staff at the Y, she wrote a letter to the director and told her story in that letter. It was the start of something that Chesson didn’t ever see coming. “They offered me an opportunity to share my story,” she said. “I decided it was the right thing to do.” That invitation led to more speaking engagements at the YMCA’s Sexual Assault Awareness event last April, and at Naval Base Kitsap. She has spoken at sexual assault training seminars, to first responders, and to military personnel at Stand Downs. This April, which is Sexual Assault Awareness month, she will speak April 8 at the Haselwood YMCA in Silverdale and April 20 at the YMCA in Lakewood. “It’s important that people hear from the victim,” she said. “People need to know that despite any of the circumstances, a victim has the right to be the victim. Yes, I was out at a casino, and yes, I had a few cocktails. But I was not asking for this to happen and it was not my fault.” She speaks to college-age kids and to active military telling them ways to keep themselves out of harm. But she also speaks about not blaming or judging the victim. “It’s important that men, especially, know that what they say to a victim has great consequences,” she said. “I know there are people who will say it was my fault. Some in law enforcement said it

may have been because I didn’t say ‘No.’ But how could I when I was drugged and unconscious?” She tries to tell others who work with sexual assault victims about the emotions that victims have and the things they go through in the days and weeks and months after the attack. And she stresses that women are told how to protect themselves, but seldom are men educated not to rape. Chesson acknowledged that statistically, 10 percent of rapes are women attacking men. She also knows that rape is a crime of power and control and has little to do with sexual attraction. She can quote statistics for hours, including that only 2 percent of the rapes reported are false. But her real message is that rape can happen to anyone and anyone can overcome it, but it is a life long process. “It takes giving yourself permission to be yourself,” she said. “Do what you need to do for yourself, even if that’s not doing anything for a while. And take it at your own pace.” She knows some victims will never speak about what happened to them. And that’s okay. She sees herself as a spokeswoman for the silent victims. “I’ve had women say that to me,” she said. “They’ve thanked me for speaking out and they’ve said that they’ve been raped and that they can’t speak to anyone about it.” Some of them, she said, can’t because they are in the military and fear repercussions. Chesson has faced down all of her fears but one, she said. And she plans to do that on the anniversary of her rape. On March 4 she’s going to go back to the hotel room

According to victim advocacy groups, somewhere in America, a woman is raped every 2 minutes. Twenty-two percent of victims were younger than age 12 when they were first raped, and 32 percent were between the ages of 12 and 17; 25 percent of girls and 17 percent of boys are sexually abused before the age of 18; 70 percent of rape and sexual assault victims know their attacker prior to the assault. Of surveyed college women, about 90 percent of rape and sexual assault victims knew their attacker prior to the assault. More than 33 percent of women in Washington State have been sexually assaulted in their lifetime. Almost 20 percent of these women have been the victims of multiple assaults by different offenders. Only about 25 percent of the women who suffered physical injuries sought medical assistance and only 33 percent sought counseling.

Tami Chesson at the event. where her rape happened. “I have to go back there,” she said. “I have to look at that room and then look at myself in the mirror and know once and for all that I’ve survived and I’ve overcome it.” Chesson has a Facebook page, My Story Your Second Chance, where she journals and where other victims can reach out to her. She also hopes to become a national level-speaker on being a sexual assault survivor. For now, she will continue to speak locally and she will go to work every day. She’ll take care of her two children and she’ll help out at the YMCA with fund raising programs. She currently speaks for free, but when a paid opportunity arises, she is committed to donating half to the Y or to help at Bangor with their sexual assault training programs. “What needs to be said is that rape can happen to anyone,” she said. “I’m a college educated woman, with kids and a career and it happened to me. Statistically, it happens to one in every five women. But what victims do with what happened is so important. It will define the rest of their lives.”

of her friends with things. When I got discouraged about not finding a job, she said to me ‘Why don’t you do what you’re doing for us as a job?’ “ That was it. Garrett decided to study the idea and came up with Kitsap Errand Runner. For a fee, he’ll run errands, do shopping, make a trip to the dump, or pet sit and house sit. It’s taken three years, but the business is growing. “At first, I wanted it to be a personal concierge service,” he said. “But then I realized this is Kitsap County and I needed to just call it was it is,” he said. “So I decided that it should be called an errand service.” Garrett researched similar services throughout the country by looking on the Internet. He wrote a business plan, got business cards printed, started a website and put his plan into operation. In the first year, he had to work another job on the weekends as a bellman at the Clearwater Casino. During the weekdays, he ran his errand business. “I was working 70 hours a week,” he said. “It was hard. But I knew it was the only way to get the business going.” The second year he called the “Running for Mayor” year. “I just took a stack of business cards and started shaking hands,” he said. “This is a personal business and it takes meeting people on a personal level.” Soon his business began to take off by word of mouth. Now in its third year, Kitsap Errand Runner is his sole job and he works five to six days a week. While there’s still room for growth, Garrett says in the past year he’s seen a 22 percent growth in sales. Some of his business comes from his regular customers who use him on a weekly basis. Other customers call just when they need him. He has a base rate of $28

an hour for errands and $35 an hour for calls that require more labor, like mowing lawns or cleaning out rental properties. He also offers packages that give repeat customers discounts if time is bought in bulk. If the errands are within a core area, there is no extra change for mileage. But if the errands require more than 15 miles, there is a fuel fee of 55 cents a mile. “The cost of fuel can really affect my bottom line,” he said. “And it’s so unpredictable. So the fuel fee is just about the only way I can stay ahead of the game.” One of Garrett’s regular clients is the owner of a business in downtown Poulsbo. “She sends me her shopping list by email on Sunday and I do her shopping every Monday morning,” he said. “And do her banking, too. That way she can stay in her shop and run her business. And she tells me that by not shopping herself, she saves money because she doesn’t impulse buy.” Another customer is an older woman Garrett fondly calls “Mrs. D.” “I do her grocery shopping, pick up her prescriptions and sometimes her orders at JC Penney’s,” he said. “And then I put her groceries away and once in a while change a lightbulb or put out her trash for her -- just about anything she needs.” He’s happy with the nickname “Do’er of the To-Do List.” He’s happy running to the bank, or taking deliveries to their destinations, or even meeting customers at the nursery. “Because I have a truck, some customers ask me to meet them places like the nursery and take whatever they’ve purchased to their home,” he said. “They just don’t want bags of soil or plants in the back seat of their nice sedan.” A native of Florida, Garrett came to the Pacific Northwest in 1977 when assigned to NAS

Whidbey. He fell in love with the mountains and stayed. He met and married his wife, Diane, in 1979. He has lived in Kitsap County for 20 years. He previously worked for an automotive group in Poulsbo before being laid off in 2010. “I thought I’d be able to find a job right away,” he said. “My wife was working so we were able to make it. But after nine months I still didn’t have a job.” That’s when his mother, who lives in Silverdale, suggested the errand-running business. He’s never surprised at the calls he gets. “I got a call from a customer in Minnesota who wanted me to go to Belfair and pick up fenders for a 1934 automobile and take them to Tacoma to be shipped to him in Minnesota,” he said. He’s also promoted other businesses. A recent call came from a t-shirt company asking him to find all the tattoo parlors in Kitsap County and deliver them a sample t-shirt and brochures, in order to promote her business. He’s posted roadside signs advertising events and then gone around and taken down the signs after the event. And he’s house-sat, cat-sat, and even cared for a bird. For Garrett, who is a dedicated member of the Sylvan

Baptist Church in Silverdale, his work is more than running errands. “If you go anywhere on the weekend, you see moms and dads running from place to place, dragging their kids along,” he said. “You just know they’d all rather be at home or out somewhere doing something fun with the family. If they didn’t have so much to do, they could spend time with their family, or spend time doing what they love. Kids are missing out and the parents are missing out. “That’s where I come in. I just have a desire to help people. By running their errands, I’m helping them create time for themselves.” Garrett admits he wishes he could do it all for free. But he has a mortgage and bills to pay. “This job is something that makes me feel like I’m helping others and yet, I’m able to make a living,” he said. “And now that my wife has gone back to school to become a teacher, it’s really important that I make it.” And, he said, he saves time each week for his mother. “I still do her errands,” he said. “I make sure I take care of her.” Contact Garrett at 360 471-9504 or email him at info@kitsaperrandrunner. com.

Background checks expanded in proposal By Zoey Palmer WNPA Olympia News Bureau

Gun-control opponents and supporters packed a hearing room on the Capitol campus in Olympia Wednesday to testify about a bill requiring universal background checks for gun purchases. Background checks are currently required by state law when buying a gun from a licensed firearms dealer, but not between private, unlicensed citizens. HB 1588 would require a background check for gun sales by private parties. The bill, sponsored by Rep. Jamie Pedersen (D-43rd District, Seattle), requires the seller to request a National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) check on the buyer from a licensed dealer or local law enforcement, either of which may

charge up to $20 for the service. Under the bill, the background check requirement would not apply to the sale of antique guns. NICS checks are usually immediate, but if one is delayed for more than three days the transaction would be allowed to go through without it under provisions in the bill. The same rule currently applies to licensed gun dealers. Pedersen explained that the bill is a common-sense approach to keeping guns out of the hands of violent criminals and those who are dangerous and mentally ill. “I believe we have broad agreement in our society that there are some classes of people who should not have guns,” he said, speaking to the House Judiciary Committee that conducted

the hearing. Pedersen maintained that background checks are an effective way to prevent criminals from obtaining guns and extending the requirement to private transactions, which represent 40 percent of firearms sales in Washington, would help further reduce gun violence. Don Pierce of the Washington Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs stated that members of his organization support the right of a citizen to own a gun, except for those not allowed to by law. “The only way that we can really know for sure that we’re limiting the number of gun transactions to felons is to create a background-check process,” Pierce said. Opponents of the bill claimed it would only affect law-abiding citizens.

Feral cat program gets underway in Bremerton

Starting this month, Kitsap Humane Society is launching a Community Cats Program in greater Bremerton to humanely stabilize and reduce the city’s free-roaming, feral cat population. The program is primarily funded by a generous grant from PetSmart Charities. Benefits of the program include fewer births, reduction of nuisance complaints by residents, alleviation of public health concerns and conservation of animal control efforts, according to Kelly Michaels, spokeswoman for the society. KHS will use a method known as Trap, Neuter/Spay and Return (TNR) to locate and trap feral cats. Using humane box traps, KHS will capture the feral cats and take them to the shelter, where they will be medically evaluated. Healthy cats will be spayed/neutered and vaccinated against rabies. After a short recuperation period, cats will be returned to the neighborhoods from which they came. TNR is a proven method of stopping the cycle of unwanted litters and keeping the community’s cat problem to a minimum. Simply trapping and removing all feral cats does not solve the problem; as soon as an estab-

lished resource is available, more cats will move in to claim the territory. TNR is an effective, humane method of controlling outdoor cat populations that ensures cats within an established territory are altered. “Over the past several years, we have seen an explosion of stray cats and kittens being brought into Kitsap Humane Society from the Bremerton area, with many of them being feral cats,” said Dr. Jen Stonequist, director of shelter medicine for KHS. “Based on un-owned cat estimates by population density, Bremerton is home to approximately 1,100 feral cats. “Because cats breed prolifically, their numbers are continually increasing. KHS’ goal is to reduce the number of feral cats in Bremerton by spaying and neutering approximately 600 cats over the next 12 months.” Efforts will be coordinated based on the cats’ feeding habits and surgery availability. Before setting traps, KHS will obtain permission from property owners and will notify neighbors within one-quarter mile of the trapping area. Every effort will be made to avoid the trapping of owned cats and to encourage community cooperation. Any obviously-

owned animal will be immediately released. Funded by a PetSmart Charities® spay/neuter grant, the Community Cats Program is being coordinated by a local TNR expert contracted by KHS in collaboration with KHS staff veterinarians. KHS will also work with volunteers, local spay/neuter groups and community cat caretakers. Reports will be compiled quarterly and will be available upon request. Data will include information on free-roaming cats that have been trapped, neutered and released by location. More information about KHS’ Community Cats Program is available at k itsap-humane.org/community-cats, or by calling Coordinator Tara Trezona at 253-237-2214. Kitsap Humane Society is a non-profit charitable organization that has been caring for animals in need since 1908. KHS’ vision is that every adoptable companion animal has a home. The staff and volunteers work toward this goal seven days a week through the immediate care and sheltering of thousands of companion animals, who are homeless, lost, ill and in need of an advocate. For more information, visit www.kitsap-humane.org.

Criminals, they argued, don’t follow laws and would obtain guns illegally. “Since it’s already illegal for a felon to purchase a handgun anywhere from anyone,” said Linda Wilson, a Clark County gun-owner, claiming that responsible gun-owners are aware of the law, “how is regulating the sale of guns by a law-abiding gun-owner going to change any action by a criminal?” Others raised concerns about the possibility of a gunowner database being created from background-check paperwork. The original version of the bill released to the public does not require government agencies to destroy the request forms once the background checks are completed.

“What this is really all about is not really regulating private transactions,” said Brian Judy of the National Rifle Association. “It’s about creating a registration database.” The bill would effectively create a registry for rifles and shotguns similar to federal handgun registration, claimed Alan Gottlieb of the Citizen’s Committee to Keep and Bear Arms. A proposed change to the bill, which was not available until just before the hearing, would require agencies to destroy the forms used to request a background check and would not require a background check on buyers with state concealed-pistol permits. Licensed dealers may be

the only way for a private seller to obtain a background check. Many police departments have policies against running background checks for private, non-licensed citizens. Rep. Mike Hope (R-44th District, Snohomish), a co-sponsor of the bill and a Seattle police officer when not serving in the Legislature, and SPD Deputy Chief of Operations Nick Metz, said it’s against their department’s policy to run background checks for private citizens. The bill doesn’t address those policies. Judy noted that some gun owners voluntarily request checks on prospective buyers through a licensed dealer, but for a higher fee than the proposed bill provides.

cially worried. Patty Glaser with the Bremerton School District said the district would be at risk of losing money in a few key areas: Title I funding for high-poverty schools, Title II funding for teacher development and special education funding. Anything in the district that is attached to federal funding would be at risk, Glaser said. One such funding source is Impact Aid, which the federal government provides to districts based

with the port. “I don’t think I raised my voice at him, but I did tell him that I was disappointed that the port made the decision not to hire someone with the expertise to fill the marina.” Lent referred to the board’s decision not to accept either of two proposals from private companies that would manage and market the Bremerton marina in an attempt to get more boats to be moored at the marina. “As a city, we take care of the boardwalk,” Lent said on Wednesday. “But we have to work as partners with the port in the area. If you walk the marina, you will see the slips are filthy. The port staff does not take the debris away from where it collects in the

waterfront condos, a purchase that at first seemed like a good deal in an up-and-coming town. But the condos were a year late, the economy tanked and the property values nosedived. “I lost a good bit of money and the best way I can figure out to get it back is to make the communities better,” he said. Since then, McDonald has helped organize Seattle hotel concierge tours and tried to work with the state’s ferry system to boost tourism among other efforts. “I think the key to our success here in Bremerton and Port Orchard is to get people on our ferry,” he said. “That’s the easiest and cheapest way to do it,” McDonald said, later acknowledging what is perhaps an even bigger

on their number of students who live on, or whose parents work on, federal property. Because of the proximity of Naval Base Kitsap to both Bremerton and Central Kitsap school districts, schools in the area could see a dramatic drop in federal Impact Aid after the sequester. Because of its high poverty rate and number of military-dependent students, Bremerton could see a larger than average cut Friday. “I don’t know what other districts get in their federal funding,” Glaser said. “But it would be a significant impact on Bremerton.” All told, according to White

House figures, Washington will lose approximately $11,606,000 in funding for primary and secondary education, putting around 160 teacher and aide jobs at risk. About 11,000 fewer students would be served and approximately 50 fewer schools would receive funding. The White House says that 70,000 young children would lose access to Head Start, 10,000 teacher jobs would be put at risk, and funding for up to 7,200 special education teachers, aides, and staff could be cut. In addition, Washington will lose approximately $11,251,000 in funds for about 140 teachers, aides,

and staff who help children with disabilities. Around 440 fewer low income students in Washington would receive aid to help them finance the costs of college and around 180 fewer students will get work-study jobs that help them pay for college. Head Start and Early Head Start services would be eliminated for approximately 1,000 children. Beyond that, up to 800 disadvantaged and vulnerable children could lose access to child care. Local law enforcement will also be impacted by sequestration. Washington will lose about $271,000 in Justice Assistance Grants that sup-

slips.” She said she felt the city has a good partnership with the port, but that the city “can’t dictate what they (the port) do.” Lent said she didn’t think port commissioners did their “due-diligence” to have an expert come in and say how they would manage the port. The commissioners rejected a contract with a professional management company partly to save expense and partly because they did not want to hand over management of a public marina to a private company, Zabinski said. But Lent said that wasn’t a good call. “You’re not privatizing it,” she said. “You will always own it. You’re just contracting with someone with the expertise to manage it and market it so that it becomes more attractive.”

Earlier this month, Port CEO Tim Thompson outlined a plan to reduce costs at the port. That plan, which is underway, called for a restructuring and downsizing of marine facilities in order to save $443,555 a year. Of that, nearly $365,000 a year will be saved at the mostly empty Bremerton Marina. The plan calls for one manager for both of the port’s marinas in Bremerton and Port Orchard. It also calls for the elimination of the director of business development. In all, five positions will be cut. Lent said she worries that the plan will have negative affects on the already struggling Bremerton Marina. The marina is at 35 percent occupancy. But Lent said she did not intend for her comments to stir up trouble with the port commissioners. She said

she is concerned about the negative press the marina has gotten lately and welcomes an update from Commissioner Zabinski. “I suggested that he (Zabinski) schedule time in a work session in March so that he could speak to the council and so that the council would have time to ask questions,” she said. “And I suggested that he bring the CEO with him.” Zabinski said he is working with the council president to schedule that work session. He said his goal is to make sure that the Bremerton Marina remains “front and center” in the port commission’s strategic plans. Thompson was not in attendance at the port meeting Tuesday and did not want to comment Wednesday on the issues Lent raised.

obstacle. “The biggest problem for both cities is a lot of empty storefronts with a big percentage of the businesses closing after 6 o’clock.” During his presentation last week, Brooks laid out a step-by-step process in which local citizens can successfully brand and market a community. Some of those steps include a widereaching survey, the creation of a “Brand Development Committee,” feasibility studies and, perhaps most importantly, action plans that include a to-do list to achieve success. Under Brooks’ model, a small group of committed citizens gather, assess and boil down community input on various branding ideas. Those ideas could include turning a town into a culinary destination, making a town and region a sanctuary from the hustleand-bustle of everyday life or

whatever else is possible. “You build your brand on feasibility, not just local sentiment … At the end of the day, this is about cash,” he said. As part of the process, a Brand Leadership Team, or “Brand Cops” are eventually selected that will champion the cause and be the “voice of the brand.” “Brands are not for the faint of heart because not everybody is going to agree,” he said. “Behind the scenes there are those that are going to say, ‘We don’t want change,’ but without change communities die.” Brooks also emphasized that branding a town cannot rely on chambers, economic development organizations or local governments. “Politicians are elected to be all things to all people,” he said. “You’re not asking for their permission, you’re saying, ‘We just want to know if you will help us

in the private sector where feasible?’ The best thing you can do with a city is push them rather than wait for them.” Beyond the branding process, Brooks talked about the critical importance of plazas and public markets in towns. “If you can combine the two you’re gonna be in heaven,” he said. Brooks also touched on various parking strategies, the need for restroom facilities, the impact of business and occupation (B&O) taxes, visitor spending patterns, beautification and more. He also touched on some other areas in which Bremerton can dramatically improve. “The problem you have in Bremerton with the lack of way-finding (useful signage) is a crime,” he said. “This is a town where you don’t connect the dots at all and you need to connect the dots.”

port law enforcement, prosecution and courts, crime prevention and education, corrections and community corrections, drug treatment and enforcement, and crime victim and witness initiatives. If sequestration takes

effect, up to 373,000 seriously mentally ill adults and seriously emotionally disturbed children could go untreated. This would likely lead to increased hospitalizations, involvement in the criminal justice system, and homelessness for these individuals.

Boys’ first experience with Top Gun For several mornings in a row, I woke to the same conversation coming from the landing outside my bedroom: “Owen, get my back. Get my back!” “Got it. The enemy’s on my tail.” “Hard right! Hard right!” “I see him. I’m locking in. Got ‘em.” “There’s another one. Locking in.” “He’s on my tail.” The boys were playing a Nintendo Wii game called “World War II Aces.” Using the handheld remote, they led historical aircraft through maneuvers on famed missions. Even Lindell, 5, was learning pilot-talk. The first time I saw him use his hands to demonstrate how a plane banked left, I knew—it was time to show them Top Gun. (Well, not all of Top Gun; I’d need to fast-forward through that scene.) I put the DVD in the machine, and when the title screen came on, the first notes of Kenny Loggin’s iconic “Danger Zone” playing against the whistle and wind of jet noise, the entire 1980s washed over me. I felt like I might even smell the old perm in my hair. The boys stared at the television, their mouths hung open. This is when I knew they needed some background information. I paused the DVD. “Okay, first,” I said, “you should know that this is what I grew up with. Pop, your grandfather, was an F-14 pilot. What you’re about to see is what he did for work when I was a kid. He even went to the

Navy Wise

Sarah Smiley famous Top Gun school.” “Pop?” Owen said, the corners of his mouth turning up in a smile. “Yes, Pop.” “My Pop?” Lindell asked. “Yes. But there’s more.” I reminded the boys of the aircraft carriers I grew-up on and around in Norfolk, Virginia. “They were like Pop’s office, right?” Owen said. “Yes, we remember,” Ford said, his impatience audible. “The smell of jet fuel reminds you of being a kid. What else? Can we watch now?” “You’re going to see an aircraft carrier in this movie. It’s the same one your dad was on during his first deployment. He and Pop were actually on it together at one point.” The boys’ minds had just been blown. As I realized that I had even more to tell them, I wondered what took me so long to show them this movie. “Can we watch now?” Ford asked. I pushed play and said what I thought was an aside, “Also, people say the main character, Maverick, looks a lot like your dad.” Owen put his hand over his mouth. “Does

Maverick die? I don’t want to watch if Maverick dies.” That’s when I remembered that Goose dies. I was having second thoughts. But the other boys were already enthralled with the F-14 catapulting off the flight deck. Owen put his hand down and said, “These are real planes? They look so futuristic.” “ That’s probably because we’ve been staring at WWII planes on the game,” Ford said. I debated about whether to tell them that the F-14 is indeed outdated now, too, replaced by the F-18. “I can’t imagine Pop flying that,” Ford said. “Yeah, I can’t imagine an old man flying that plane,” Lindell said. I laughed. “Well, he wasn’t old back then,” I said. After Maverick landed his plane and took off his helmet, the boys gasped. “He does look like Dad,” Ford said. “I can’t watch this if he dies,” Owen said. The boys stood to get closer to the screen. “His mouth, it looks just like Dad,” Lindell said. “And that expression,” Ford yelled, pointing at the screen. “That, right there, looks just like him.” It became difficult to follow the storyline because the boys had so many questions: Was I born when Pop went to Top Gun? No. Has Dad (Dustin) ever rescued pilots out of the water in the helicopter? Yes. Did I ever ride in an F-14? No. But I did watch Pop

break the sound barrier once. The boys continued to recognize their Dad’s expressions in Maverick’s face. It was almost as if they wanted to touch the screen to be near him, and that made me unspeakably sad. Then the scene came where Goose dies. The room grew quiet. On the screen, Maverick packed up Goose’s belongings and took them to Meg Ryan, who played Goose’s wife. “I don’t think I can watch this,” Owen said. “Owen,” Ford sighed. “The one who died doesn’t look like dad.” “Still,” Owen said. “So many things in the Navy are dangerous. I mean, Goose was just practicing, and he died.” I had no good response for this. All I could do was nod and rub the hair away from Owen’s forehead. Next, there were “ewws” and fake vomiting when Maverick and Charlie (Kelly McGillis) kissed on screen. This seemed to replace all the heavy thoughts from before. The boys went to bed and said very little more about Top Gun. The next day, however, all those stories I had told them, having percolated overnight, grew and become distorted. I overheard Owen telling a neighbor, “My Pop went to Top Gun and was the best fighter pilot that ever lived. He breaks the sound barrier all the time. He was better than Tom Cruise.” Hey, Old Man—you’re welcome.

KHS dog kennels to expand Construction started this week at Kitsap Humane Society to provide better living conditions and decrease overcrowding for dogs, according to Kelly Michaels, director of marketing and PR for the society. As an open admission shelter where no animal is turned away, KHS’ overall capacity for dogs will increase by 20 percent or 12 new kennels, for a total of 72 dog kennels, Michaels said. When the new kennels are completed, three distinct areas will be available for housing dogs: the improved main kennel for medium/large dogs, a new small dog kennel and the existing puppy room. The improvements are estimated to cost approximately $90,000. About 50 percent is committed for the project, composed of individual gifts (including a $25,000 challenge grant) and multiple $1,000 kennel sponsorships. A fundraising campaign is underway to raise the remaining funds. KHS will launch an adoption special to “Empty the Dog Kennels” of all medium to large dogs housed in the main kennel at 50 percent off regular adoption fees. This special will run March 1 to March 10. Owners looking for stray dogs should still come to the shelter on Dickey Road. The new small dog kennel construction will be completed by mid April. The addition of 12 new small dog kennels will improve living conditions of small dogs by housing them in new, state-of-the-art kennels and allow KHS to increase the rescue and adoption of small dogs. A KHS social media campaign on Facebook (facebook.com/kitsaphumanesociety) and Twitter (@KitsapHumane) to raise $25,000 in 25 days will launch March 1. This campaign will aim to raise funds to match the $25,000 challenge grant. All regular services at Kitsap Humane Society will continue as usual, including adoption of cats and small dogs. Veterinary services, including low-cost spay/ neuter and microchip clinics, animal rescue, foster care and volunteer activities will also be offered as usual.

Leo Kottke in solo concert March 15 BREMERTON — Grammy-nominated acoustic guitarist Leo Kottke will perform a solo concert at the Admiral Theatre March 15, 7 p.m.

It will be Kottke’s first appearance in Bremerton in more than two years. Kottke (www.leokottke.com) is a walking contradiction — slow talking, thoughtful almost to distraction. Yet when he picks up a steel-stringed guitar, his fingers race across the strings with uncommon speed, developing a deep, churning groove that can at times sound like several people playing at once.

Kottke, 67, has recorded more than 30 albums that showcase his barnstorming fretwork and quirky songwriting. Tickets: Admiral Theatre Box Office, (360) 373-6743, or online at www. admiraltheatre.org.

she owned for 11 years. Fay said she bought the Farm Kitchen property to create a wholesale baking operation for Bainbridge Bakers, but after moving in decided to farm it and focus on other passions. The kitchen she built would still be rented out for caterers and those just starting out their food business. “We’re like a food business incubator,” Thatcher said. She estimates six to eight businesses have gotten their start at the Farm Kitchen. Already aware the Department of Health was about to change its food preparation laws, Fay bought the property in 1995 to provide a commercial kitchen space. No longer were folks allowed to sell food items prepared in their personal kitchens (although those kind of licenses are available now), but commercial kitchens were not yet marketable. “What’s of interest to us is not necessarily always what was most in

Friday, March 1, 2013 demand,” Thatcher said. “The commercial kitchen was about five years ahead of its time. But we built it and they didn’t all come immediately. So, when that happen[ed], we had to pay the bills still, so we did the Saturday breakfast, and we still had to pay the bills, so we worked full-time jobs … This is how it grew.” Thatcher’s background is in marketing and e-business; she previously worked as a consultant, in Starbucks’ corporate communications office, and for the Seattle Public Library. She decided to trade Seattle for a rural lifestyle, and moved in next door to Fay’s farm in 1999. She began pitching in while working for a charity that helped establish university libraries in Vietnam — many of her initial business meetings with Fay were over Skype. The two women say their skill sets are complementary and necessary to the different lines of business at Farm Kitchen. The commercial kitchen is open 24/7 to caterers and small-business owners who sign up to use the space. Fay and Thatcher

said many have come in to work at night while taking care of family or working another job during the day. Fay said she often offers advice and shares stories about running a kitchen and retail business with the people that come through her kitchen. Folks have made baked-goods, chocolates, barbecued meats, pasta and salsa here to sell at farmers markets or elsewhere. Couples looking for a rural or rustic feel for their wedding ceremonies are attracted to Farm Kitchen’s farm. “Those that choose to get married here, many

have that affinity for organic farming and good food, locally sourced,” Thatcher said. The large flower gardens provide wedding bouquets, and the barn has indoor and outdoor space for receptions. A new element has been added to the farm every year, Thatcher said — the barn’s rooms were remodeled and opened up, the pasture was turned into grass, and a stone patio added for outdoor events. Farm Kitchen offers a brunch, on the first Saturday of the month, with a different menu every time. Here’s one month’s offering: French

toast stuffed with citrus cream cheese, rosemary apple sausage, cranberry orange scones or pecan sticky buns. Fay and Thatcher decided to take advantage of Fay’s skills and offer cooking classes, starting in 2002. “It’s a competition every day when you bake, so it needs to be perfect,” Fay said. “You’re going to be graded on it, graded on by [the] customer.” On a Sunday afternoon in February, 16 people learned how to make pastry dough and savory and sweet pie fillings. Many participants were from the eastside of Puget Sound,

but many were local women who had taken several classes before. “Between the gingerbread parties and [the classes], I come out two to three times a year,” said Lois Egenes of Kingston. “I’m always looking for a new idea. I was not big on pie crusts [before]. Marie Callender’s won’t see me as often anymore.” Christine Porras and Justin Duffey of Bainbridge Island took the pie class as a fun date. Thatcher said Farm Kitchen stays connected to the community with a well-updated website, which lists its class schedule, monthly breakfast menus and a lot of photos for prospective brides. For the last five or so years, Thatcher and Fay have committed full-time to growing Farm Kitchen. “The community aspect is significant,” Thatcher said. Fay added, “I think we see it the most on the breakfast day and the gingerbread house parties. It’s just [full of] people so excited to come here.” Check out the amenities and contact information at www.farmkitchen.com.

Today, that model remains — with minor adjustments. “Wine clubs are not for everyone,” said Kahryn, managing partner for the winery she owns with her husband and parents. So Anelare came out with a higher-production red blend (still only 250
