New Lynwood development raises fear of traffic troubles
SUPER BOWL PREDICTIONS Islanders give their best guesses about the big game
BY SERAINE PAGE
Bainbridge Island Review
If the roads near a proposed Lynwood Center development get as crowded as a community meeting this week on the project, islanders aren’t going to be happy. A standing-room-only crowd of nearly 100 filled the Pleasant Beach Village Marketplace on Monday as islanders shared their concerns about potential traffic and parking problems with the developers of the proposed residential and commercial development. Residents were invited to ask questions and express any concern for the development that’s currently in the pre-application phase.

Well, obviously, the Hawks are going to win. The only question is by how much? At least that’s the picture painted by the 12s on Bainbridge Island. The staff of the Review sought out the Super Bowl predictions of several learned and wise islanders this week to see where they came down on the outcome of this year’s big game against the Patriots. The island’s own resident football guru, Bainbridge High School Head Football Coach Andy Grimm — a man of few words when it comes to game time — got right at the heart of the matter with his succinct prediction. “Go Hawks! 24-21,” he said. Bainbridge parks executive director Terry Lande — who attended the Hawks’ first game in 1976 — predicts a 31-24 score that hopefully doesn’t come down to the last second. It’s tribulation enough getting through the game, he said. “We just pace and talk to the TV,” Lande said of watching the big game. “We can’t watch it with other people. No one understands how we watch the game.” Dave Erbes, a building permit specialist for the city, is inarguably the biggest Seahawks fan at Bainbridge Island City Hall. Before the Seahawks took on Green Bay in the NFC Championship, he

He’s been following the team for more than 30 years, and can still recall the silk jacket emblazoned with Seahawks armbands that he sported in the Chuck Knox era. Erbes was hesitant to predict a final score, but said Seattle would come through in the end. “I think it’s going to be a really good game, a lot better than last year’s,” Erbes said. “It’s going to come down to our offense and their defense,” he said. “Our defense is going to shut their offense down.” Erbes said he expects either a low score game, with less than 14 points apiece, or a real-

Jay Abbott, head coach of Bainbridge’s middle school mountain bike team, is in a coma after crashing during a team training ride on Sunday. The spinal cord injury he suffered during the accident has been termed “complete,” and he is not expected to survive, according to an online statement released by his family late Wednesday. “In the past 24 hours, with the tireless support of Jay’s medical team, we now know that Jay will not survive his injuries,” it read. “He will not recover to move, swallow or breath on his own again.” The message went on to say that now Abbott’s family faced “the impossible task of saying farewell.” Bainbridge Island Assistant Fire Chief Luke Carpenter said the accident occurred Jan. 25 during a bike ride in the Grand Forest.

Church joins Super Bowl drive Seabold United Methodist Church on Bainbridge Island will help tackle hunger with the help of the 12s. The United Methodist Churches in Seattle/ Washington have challenged their colleagues in the New England Annual Conference to a food drive. The contest is to see which churches can collect the most non-perishable food items between now and the big game on Sunday, Feb. 1, where the Seattle Seahawks will take on the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. 12th Man fans and all other islanders are encouraged to come by and drop off donations at Seabold United Methodist Church, located at 6894 Seabold Church Road, or at any other participating churches. Donation suggestions include soups, canned vegetables, peanut butter, canned meat, rice, dried beans and more. The church will accept donations until noon on
Sunday, Feb. 1 to help feed more hungry people than New England can, while showing that islanders are #UnitedInBlue on and off the field. BHS
Search goes on for new principal The Bainbridge Island School District is continuing its search for a permanent hire for the principal’s job at Bainbridge High School. The original deadline for applications was Feb. 2, but it recently was changed to Feb. 9, according to school district spokeswoman Galen Crawford. The deadline was extended following the holidays to allow more time for applicants to submit materials, she said. The first round of interviews are scheduled for the first week in March. “We are casting a net nationwide in our search for a principal,” Crawford said. The school district would not say how many applications have been received for the job. The district began advertising the position in early

She replaced Jake Haley, the previous principal who left after accepting a job as a high school principal in California. O’Neill served as an educator for more than 30 years in South Kitsap, California and Kuwait. Prior to her interim role, she was a teacher focused on the alignment of curriculum with Common Core Standards for the Bainbridge Island School District. WSF

In Our Opinion
A few tweaks to election laws
T
he Legislature is considering a few pieces of legislation regarding elections, some more helpful than others. Senate Bill 5153 would bring some badly needed transparency to campaign donations, creating a new class of political action committee. As reported by political columnist Jerry Cornfield of the (Everett) Daily Herald last week, groups have taken advantage of the current system to shield the source of donations. The bill would require “incidental committees” to file reports with the state Public Disclosure Commission if they spend $25,000 or more on a campaign for a statewide ballot measure or office, and would require identification of donors who contribute $2,000 or more. Recent political campaigns, particularly for initiatives, have seen incredible growth in spending. The campaign against I-522, which sought labeling of food products using genetically modified ingredients, raised more than $21 million in 2013. And the drive to privatize liquor sales in the state, I-1183, raised more than $20 million in 2011. With that much money flowing to campaigns, it’s imperative that voters know where that support is coming from. House Bill 1323 would do away with the annoyance of voting for ballot questions that are little more than straw polls. The legislation would scrap the “advisory” questions found on statewide ballots that seek nonbinding votes for tax measures the Legislature has already voted on. The advisory votes were a provision of Tim Eyman’s I-960, passed in 2007. But during the last two general elections, the state has spent more than $250,000 to include the advisory votes in the voter’s pamphlets. That’s $250,000 spent on advisory votes that carry little weight among legislators. Senate Joint Resolution 8201 seeks an amendment to a state constitutional requirement that initiatives not have a significant effect on the state budget. The legislation is, supporters admit, a reaction to the passage of I-1351, which now requires the state to hire thousands of teachers and other education workers at a significant cost, without providing a method of funding for itself. Passage of 8201 would require a two-thirds majority in the Legislature and approval by voters, but the bill already has about 40 senators, Republican and Democratic, lined up in support. Not surprisingly, the bill has drawn criticism from Eyman, who has made initiatives, especially those on tax issues, his career. The frustration with I-1351 is understandable, but the Legislature should be careful with amendments to the constitution and with the people’s right to place initiatives on the ballot.

Councilman responds to public records lawsuit To the editor: What is happening here? The Paulson/Fortner lawsuit has confused, disappointed, and divided our community, and now is poised to extract over half a million dollars from Bainbridge Island taxpayers. I am pained to think that I may carry any responsibility for these circumstances. I want the community to know that I did not conduct city business from my private email account, and I did turn over my emails to the city in a timely manner for the public records request. What I did not do is provide my personal computer hard drive as part of that public records request. Here’s why: Personally, and as an elected official, it remains important to me to support an individual’s rights to privacy under the First and Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and Article 1, Sections 5 and 7 of the Washington State Constitution. I upheld and continue to uphold my oath of office to comply with the constitution and laws of the United States and the State of Washington. From the beginning of Althea Paulson and Bob Fortner’s public records requests, and prior to Paulson/Fortner filing a lawsuit, the requesters demanded access to council members’ private computer hard drives. Turning over one’s hard drive is not required by state law,
nor the Public Records Act; the city did not ask council members to turn over personal computer hard drives. The Washington State Association of Municipal Attorneys (WSAMA) representing 280 Washington cities agreed with the City of Bainbridge Island’s position and filed an “Brief of Amicus” (Friend of the Court Brief) on behalf of the City. The WSAMA was concerned that a requirement to turn over hard drives would set precedent and allow any requestor to demand access to hard drives of a city, city employee and elected official. The city instead settled with Paulson/Fortner. STEVEN BONKOWSKI Bainbridge Island City Councilman
Special Election
Vote yes on Proposition 1 for parks To the editor: The Bainbridge Island Parks Foundation pursues the mission of “enhancing community by supporting a thriving system of parks, trails and open space.” With this mission in mind, I speak for the organization in supporting the Winslow Park Bond vote. The Bainbridge Island Park District has the opportunity to acquire the 23-acre Sakai property across from the high school and aquatic center. This property includes 9 acres that could support active use and 12 acres with a 2-acre lake for trails and open space. The
ultimate design for the property would be determined through a public process after the election. If the bond does not receive 60 percent approval in the upcoming election, this land is likely to be sold privately and developed densely. Parks improve our island. Research shows that parks are beneficial for the social, health and economic aspects of a vibrant community. The park district was created 50 years ago after Rotary Park was built. Since then our park system has grown to 1,500 acres. Our parks are our playgrounds, our woods and view corridors, facilitating recreation and preserving natural spaces that add joy and serenity to our lives. Ideally, everyone should live within a walk to a park. This new park will be an oasis in Winslow, easily accessible to schools, library, and shopping areas. Vote yes for the bond and your taxes will not increase at all, as the Grand Forest and Gazzam Lake bonds expired this month. Clearly, the creation of both those parks was wonderful for our island. Citizens and wildlife enjoy beloved trails, conserved woods and wetlands. These parks significantly help to “preserve our island character” — something much discussed currently in the city’s “Navigate Bainbridge” comprehensive plan process. Vote yes for Parks and Open Space Proposition 1 to create a new Winslow park for all. BARB TRAFTON Executive Director Bainbridge Island Parks Foundation

Details needed on park purchase To the editor: I love parks. But, my problem with the ballot proposal is that a property this size is going to cost a lot of money to develop and maintain, none of which is disclosed or
budgeted. This could be a significant number and really should be at least estimated and debated before we acquire land that may be unaffordable when the final bill comes due. I think we are owed a better program that gives us the actual cost, not the down payment. TONY PUMA Bainbridge Island

To the editor: As residents and voters of Bainbridge Island, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire almost 23 acres of land for a major new park. This park would be on the property now owned by the Sakai family and is located between Madison and Highway 305 north of High School Road. With 50 percent of the future island population growth slated for Winslow, the development of a large park in the Winslow core area is very important. The Sakai family is offering the property at a price based on an independent fair market appraised value. The Bainbridge Island
Friday, January 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
Metropolitan Park District has been in negotiations with the Sakai family and is asking us, the voters, to approve a $5.9 million bond issue to secure the purchase of this important parcel of land as a public park. Some argue that the price should not be more than the current county tax assessment. This makes no sense, as the Sakai family has the right and family obligation to sell the property for the best price. This is no different than a homeowner asking for the best price for his home rather than asking for the current tax assessment. Please support the purchase of the Saki property and vote “yes” for the park bond measure on the Feb. 10 ballot. Yes we are the buyers and owners of the park dis-

trict and we need to tell our park commissioners to buy the Sakai property and develop it into an important island park. With its acres of land and 2-acre pond, it is truly a community treasure. CHUCK FIELD Point White Drive
Taxes won’t go up for park purchase To the editor: Words fly, pro and con, regarding the park district request to approve a levy to purchase and make the Sakai property into a park. Now, words must become action. Please join me in voting for the bond levy. Here’s what a yes vote means: The community gets 23 acres of parkland, usable by everyone: stroller-pushers, trike riders, school-age sports fans, mature trail hikers, birdwatchers and more. Moreover, that park will be uniquely attractive because it will be quickly and easily accessible from surrounding neighborhoods. Winslow, where our Comprehensive Plan places much of the Bainbridge future population growth, is woefully short on park space. Where development occurs without parks, a communi-
ty becomes less attractive to developers and residents alike. Realize that full development of Sakai — as many as 105 houses(at least 200 or 300 people) — would add to the present heavy demand for multipurpose recreational space. Development of Sakai for residential purposes would in all likelihood end up offering housing in a price range beyond affordability for the type of residents we say we value. This isn’t an outcome that appeals to most Bainbridge residents. Fostering residential/ commercial development of Sakai, as some propose, will also bring increased demand for water commensurate with such uses. That sort of outcome bodes ill for our policies to protect our solesource aquifer, which may already be approaching its limits of productivity. The levy threatens no net increase in the amounts that taxpayers pay for park district bonds, contrary to arguments by levy opponents who raise the cry that taxes will go up. Other park bonds will already be paid off. Let’s not fail to seize this opportunity. Vote for Sakai! DWIGHT SUTTON Bainbridge Island

Park naysayers ignore big picture To the editor: I moved here in 1970 when the only parks with open space with development were state-run Fort Ward and Fay Bainbridge, district-run Strawberry Hill, and Eagledale Park. All free surplus military sites. We gained another free military site in the early ’70s with Battle Point. Then a nice free piece from the county near Manzanita. Population around 7,000 folks. Was this enough park land for this small community? I guess not as we hit the hip to purchase the Grand Forest from the DNR. Additional acquisitions soon followed like Gazzam Lake and Pritchard Park with combination of private donations and grants from various tax supported government sources. Throughout all those years there has always been push-back with the argument that taxes will go up for all because this property is now off the tax roles. I can not argue that, but these parks give back multi-fold in value to all of us as the island grows and Bainbridge will continue to grow in population. Just look, the current population numbers now and rapid new development all around the island. We have a community that has supported public purchase and given thousands of dollars to the land trust to
flesh out many additions to open space, but we need to keep an eye on the big picture as so many green spaces we have taken for granted will fill with business and housing. Sakai is a long-sighted opportunity. Join with me and my wife Willie in supporting the purchase of the Sakai property. DR. FRED GRIMM Bainbridge Park Commissioner through the 1970s Bainbridge Island
New park proposal earns our support To the editor: We enthusiastically join those who support the acquisition of the Sakai property for community park purposes. This exquisite site, literally at the geographical heart of the island, has the potential to become the place where the pulse of our public/community activities will beat. Adjacent to schools and near other public facilities, within easy reach of the downtown living spaces, and at the junction of major north-south and east–west road access, the location is unique as a natural, convenient meeting place. Think of the potential. Not just walking trails, natural cover for wildlife, sports fields, and the usual—but, at last, a logical place to eventually site a community center, a place with enough room to provide a convenient gathering spot for meetings, activ-

To the editor: There is a great need to provide more open space for our rapidly growing population downtown. At present, we have only one park in the downtown area serving thousands of residents. Fortunately, we now have an option to purchase 23 acres for public use in the downtown area. Let us not squander this unique opportunity to provide a lasting legacy of a better environment for present and future generations living on this island. There are many sociological and psychological benefits of open space to a community. Several recent studies offer strong scientific evidence of positive health effects of green cities for babies, kids, and adults. Researchers from Oregon State University, Ultrecht University in the Netherlands, and the University of British Columbia have demonstrated that increased residential greenness is associated with positive birth outcomes. Their result showed that very premature births were 20 percent lower for mothers living in greener areas, and moderately premature births were 13 percent lower. These are just some of many benefits that green spaces provide to a commu-
amazing piece of property has become available and that our metropolitan park district has an opportunity to purchase it for every member of our island community to enjoy forever. It is suitable for both active and passive recreation. As more and more of the island trees are cut to make way for more stores and shops, it will remain a natural area very close to schools and the commercial areas of our island. I am confident that when property is acquired, we will each have an opportunity to suggest our ideas for use. I had the privilege of serving for over eight years as a Bainbridge Island Park

right in the central core of our island — accessible to everyone: community center, trails, open space, wildlife habitat, play fields and who knows what else? The park district has indicated that they would have a formal process for citizens to help decide what will happen with the park. In the past, islanders have been very generous in supporting acquisitions such as the Grand Forest, Gazzam Lake, and the open space bond levy. Now imagine what the island would look like today without those parcels and others such as Blakely Harbor, the Close Property, public farmland, Hilltop, Pritchard Park and the Forest to Sky Trail. We can add the Sakai property to that list. Let’s make sure that in future years we won’t have to imagine what it would have looked like if we had saved it.

Commissioner. During this time I learned just how fiscally responsible this district’s operations are. Your tax rates will not go up from the current level. A low interest rate, combined with the retirement of the Grand Forest and Gazzam Lake bonds in 2014 and retirement of the aquatic center bonds in 2018, allow the proposed bonds to be structured so taxpayers will see no net increase in their payments for park district bonds. We already have enough shopping centers on the island! Let’s not allow this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to pass. Join me in voting “yes” to acquire this property for a park.

COLLECTIVE VISIONS:
More than 15 island artists featured in 2015 CVG Show BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge’s got talent. Just ask the folks at Collective Visions Gallery in Bremerton. Seventeen island artists fill the roster of the eighth annual CVG annual Washington State juried art competition and show, more so than any other city in the state except for Seattle. The CVG Show, as it is called, is one of the largest in the state, awarding more than $9,500 in cash and purchase prizes. Nearly 300 artists from more than 70 cities and towns around the state applied this year, of which 106 were ultimately chosen for the competition. The selected works are on display in the Bremerton gallery (331 Pacific Ave.) now through the end of February. The unenviable task of selecting which artists were accepted into the show fell upon the exhibition juror, Greg Robinson, executive director and chief curator of the Bainbridge Island Museum of Art. This was Robinson’s first year acting as exhibition juror. “I thought it was great,” he said of the overall selection process. “The process was very well set up and organized.” Robinson reviewed over 860 images of submitted artwork to narrow the number down to the
128 pieces now hanging in the show. The 106 artists included in this year’s show hail from 44 towns and cities — from Bonney Lake to Bremerton and from Inchelium to Issaquah. The entire process was done blindly, meaning that Robinson did not know the names of any of the artists until after selection. “The CV Gallery has done a really great job doing outreach beyond Bremerton,” Robinson explained. “They really want it to be a state-wide show. I’m aware of their efforts to get the word out very broadly.” Of the artwork, Robinson said that there are several key factors for a juror to consider when viewing such a wide range of works in so many mediums. “There are a couple of considerations,” he explained. “The gallery asked me to try and put together a cohesive exhibition. Also, you try to leave your personal taste at the door.” “You have to remember you’re not shopping,” he added. “You’re just trying to evaluate each piece of art on its own.” The selected artworks range from sculptures 8-feet tall to handcrafted jewelry, and computer generated fractal imagery to hand-woven fiber art. The annual show once again

Her story is an exciting message of human potential, beating long odds and sustaining healthy philosophies for the planet and the human race. The film follows the life of marathon great Joan Benoit-Samuelson as she advocates for environmental conservation, enjoys time with her family and trains for the 2010 Chicago Marathon, where she hoped to be the first woman to break three hours in five different decades. Mixed into the story are historic moments from her bid to make the first women’s Olympic marathon team, her eventual gold medal in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics and worldrecord performances in Boston and Chicago. It is an inspirational film by Portland-based director Erich Lyttle, producers Geoff Hollister and Sarah Henderson. Tickets for the event may be purchased at the door for $10. All proceeds will benefit Go Run! The community team uses running-based activities as tools to educate and empower participants in their physical and emotional lives, and to take charge of their own well-being. The program also provides coaching and mentoring volunteer opportunities for older girls and adults in the community. This season’s team is currently in the midst of training for a 5k road race.

Joan Judge, the noted island jewelry artist who passed away in October last year, is the subject of a special tribute display at Bainbridge Arts & Crafts through mid-February.
BAC honors island artisan Joan Judge Now through mid-February, Bainbridge Arts & Crafts will pay tribute to Bainbridge Island jewelry artist Joan Judge with a special display dedicated to her work. Judge passed away on Oct. 15, 2014. The artist was born on February 15, 1960 in Limestone, Maine. After traveling around the country with her father, a United States Air Force officer, Judge’s family settled in Yuba City, California. She attended San Francisco State University and became an accountant, but spent much of her spare time knitting and quilting. After being diagnosed with breast cancer, she left her position as Director of Finance
at Avalara and turned her artistic talents to jewelry making. BAC has shown Judge’s jewelry since 2012. They now invite the community to stop in to the gallery to experience this special display of the artist’s work. BAC is located at 151 Winslow Way East. Visit www.bacart.org for more information about this and other upcoming exhibitions. ‘DEAR EDITOR’
Island Theatre to read historic letters As part of an advance for Bainbridge Performing Arts’ highly-anticipated production of “Snow Falling On Cedars” this March, Island Theatre will present “Dear Editor,” a dramatic reading of selected historic community letters to the Bainbridge Island Review from the 1940s through the 1970s to illustrate the crucial role of a local paper in community life, at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 21 and Sunday, Feb. 22 at the Bainbridge Public Library. “Dear Editor” was originally produced by Island Theatre as part of the 2004 Bainbridge Island Humanities Inquiry, “Breaking News: The State of Today’s Information Media.” The readings include letters on vital – and reoccurring – Bainbridge issues such as off-leash dogs in Winslow, what to do about newcomers, rowdy teenagers, all-island government and, of
course, the ferries. Central to the play, however, are letters both for and against the exclusion of Bainbridge Island’s Japanese residents during World War II as well as letters for and against their return to the island at the end of the war. “Dear Editor” is directed by Diane Bankart and features Island Theatre board members as readers. Admission to this event is free. BPA’s outreach programs for “Snow Falling On Cedars” are supported in part by a grant from Humanities Washington, a state-wide non-profit organization supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the State of Washington, and contributions from individuals and foundations.
2. Conquer the clutter. This can be daunting. Start with one room at a time. If you are struggling, getting assistance from a professional organizer can be well worth the expense. 3. Rediscover lost space. Have a room or two that are empty? Create ideas like a meditation space, library or yoga studio.

Deadline nears for the 2015 Poetry Corners Competition BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
“Peace” is the order of the day for this year’s Poetry Corners competition. The topic for the annual original works showcase was suggested by island poet Diane Walker and will serve as the basis for submitted works in both adult and student categories. The submission deadline is 5 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 17. Since 1999, Poetry Corners has showcased original poems by our local poets. Posted along our island’s busiest routes throughout the month of April, National Poetry Month, these well-chosen words work to inspire us to pause, read, absorb and reflect. Given the current international climate, this year’s topic is clearly a timely one. Defined on a global level as an agreement to end hostilities, peace can also be expressed on a personal inner level through freedom from oppressive thoughts and emotions. Peace can be an interjection asking for silence or calm. Peace can be a greeting, a sign, a Nobel Prize, a personal salutation or something as simple as a bumper sticker, displayed for all to see. The contest is open to all Bainbridge Island residents or anyone with a strong island connection. Submissions will be grouped and juried in separate adult and student (Kindergarden through 12th grade) categories. The final 45 selections, chosen by the panel of three judges, will be displayed in public windows throughout the community
and shared aloud at a celebration reading, “Poetry Corners LIVE!” All submitted work is read and judged blind, with no names visible, but a maximum of one poem per author will be chosen. •The submission guidelines are: •Poems must relate to the theme “Peace.” •Each poet may submit up to three poems for consideration. •Students K-12, please indicate your grade level when you submit. Your work will be evaluated in the student category. •Poems cannot be more than 25 lines (including title and line spaces so as to accommodate the physical constraints of the display posters), but the poet’s name need not be included in the counting of the lines. Poems are now being accepted, email submissions to kathyh@bainbridgearts humanities.org with the subject line “Poetry Corners Submission.” All submissions must be sent via email as an attached Word document (.doc or .docx format). Include with your submission your name, address (both physical and email), grade level and school if applicable and phone number. Any poet submitting work who is not an actual island resident must also describe their connection to Bainbridge. There is an entrance fee, $12 for adults and $6 for students, which can be paid by check or credit card. Checks should be made out to the Bainbridge Island Arts & Humanities Council (221 Winslow Way W., Suite 201, Bainbridge Island, WA 98110). Visit www.bainbridgeartshumanities.org to pay by credit card, or call 206-842-7901.

Bainbridge park district celebrates 50 years bringing community together Islanders invited to an array of events for park system’s big birthday BY CECILIA GARZA Contributing Writer
Since its inception in 1965, partnership and community have defined the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District. First, with the donation of Rotary Park in 1966, and later, when the last living members of the Island Center Improvement Club donated the now more than 100-year-old Island Center Hall, community members have teamed up with the park district over the years to fulfill a need for parks and recreation on Bainbridge. After five decades of community connections, today the Bainbridge park district has 41 properties equaling 1,479 acres of park land. The children who participated in the island’s first baseball league at Rotary Park are long since grown and are a testament to the generations of islanders the district has led outdoors. Likewise, its programs now range from sailing lessons and roller hockey to poetry writing and

It goes without saying the park district has become a fixture on Bainbridge Island. This year is a monumental one, not just because it marks the district’s 50th year, said Terry Lande, executive director of the district, but also because it is the direct result of countless community partnerships, citizen volunteers, passionate staff and dedicated board members over the decades. “The park district is built on the success of partnerships,” Lande said. “We’ve covered almost every interest group on the island to make things happen.” In honor of this half-century anniversary, the Bainbridge Island Review will feature an article every month over the course of 2015. Each story, a looking glass into the past, will bring back to life the milestones that brought the District to

Between these short histories, Bainbridge residents can also celebrate the district’s 50 years, fittingly, in its parks with a series of events. The 50-visit passport program welcomes all ages to walk a trail, visit a park, attend a program or swim. Participants will have their passport stamped with each activity, and at 50 stamps will receive a commemorative prize. Volunteers are at the heart of the park district. In honor of those who give their time, this year the district will recognize volunteers who log 50 hours of service. Participants can select the area in which they’d like to volunteer, and a prize will be awarded after the hours are completed.

Volunteers work alongside district staff to install the Strawberry Hill Park playground, one of several playgrounds built in the last few years. Bainbridge residents have played a major role in the park district’s 50-year success. This year, volunteers who complete 50 hours of service will have the chance to win a prize. Fifty-stamp passport holders and 50-hour volunteers will also be entered in a raffle drawing at the District’s Birthday Bash Saturday, Aug. 29 at Battle Point Park. The whole family is invited for hands-on children’s activities, music, food and a slice of cake. There’s plenty to celebrate with half a century, which calls for two birthday parties. Bainbridge parks will also be throwing a 50-cent pool party from 12 to 4 p.m. Sunday, May 24. With admission, all ages are invited to enjoy food, games and swimming.

Cruise ship captain from island assists in rescue of downed pilot KEEP BELIEVING BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
Eric van der Wal of Bainbridge Island will certainly have an amazing story to tell when he gets home from his cruise around Hawaii. Van der Wal is captain of the ms Veendam, a Holland America Line cruise ship that was called off course this weekend to rescue a pilot who had to ditch his single-engine airplane into the ocean after it ran out of gas hundreds of miles off the coast of Hawaii. The Veendam left San Diego, Calif. on Jan. 20 for an 18-day “Circle Hawaii” cruise and was on the way to Lahaina, Hawaii, when van der Wal and his crew answered a call for help from the Coast Guard. The emergency? Louis Morton, the pilot of a Cirrus SR-22 that was flying to Kahului, Hawaii, made a distress call to the Hawaii National Guard at about 12:30 p.m. Sunday when he was about 1,000 miles north of the Big Island. The pilot told authorities he had about three hours of fuel left and would have to ditch the plane about 230 miles northeast of Maui. Morton, a Seattle pilot, was reportedly delivering the Cirrus from Wichita, Kansas to Australia. An extra fuel tank had been installed on the plane during a stop in Tracy, California, according to news reports, but the aircraft developed problems when fuel was unable to reach the engine as it continued on toward its planned stop in Kahului. The Coast Guard was notified after Morton called for help and launched an HC-130 Hercules airplane and an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter

A Cirrus SR-22 floats about 225 miles off the coast of Maui, Hawaii, after a Seattle pilot ditched the aircraft after running out of gas. from Air Station Barbers Point to the area. Officials also contacted the Veendam for assistance. The Coast Guard told Morton to fly toward the cruise ship, and Morton deployed the Cirrus’s fullplane parachute at 4:44 p.m. Sunday. Coast Guard video of the crash landing shows the airplane’s propeller slowly coming to a stop and a large parachute shooting out from the plane’s tail. The parachute inflated and the plane drifted underneath for nearly four minutes before it plopped belly first in the water. Morton got out of the cockpit and stepped
onto the left wing of the plane before it flipped over a minute later and began to sink. Morton jumped into the ocean just as the plane capsized and climbed into a small one-man raft to wait for a rescue boat; seas were 9 to 12 feet with winds of 25 to 28 mph at the time. The Veendam crew was able to pull the pilot aboard a life raft about 20 minutes later and take him back to the cruise ship. Morton was reported in good condition after his rescue. The crew gave him food and accommodations, and Morton stepped back on dry land when the ship docked Monday, Jan. 26, at Lahaina.

Remembering Art Koura Art Koura, 96, beloved resident and friend of Bainbridge Island, died peacefully Dec. 29, 2014, at Seattle’s Keiro House. In 1919, Otohiko and Hatsuko Koura strapped on their year-old son and came to Bainbridge Island by steamboat to pick strawberries. They liked it so much that they left a Seattle home and café business to try
farming in 1920. Six years later from his family’s seven-acre farm (near today’s library), Art and five siblings attended Lincoln School (site of Winslow Green). While at Bainbridge High, Art was very busy with the family farm, student government, service clubs, sports; and his parents enrolled him in local judo lessons where Yasuyuki Kumagai
taught the judo creed, ethics, respect for elders and “the flexible way” to Japanese and non-Japanese youth. With Winslow’s farm success, Art’s dad, Farmers’ Board member and Japanese Community president, began a farm move to Manzanita. With state’s prejudicial Alien Land Law, U.S.-born, 18-yearold, Art became “owner” for the family of 80 acres. He

Art Koura 1918-2014 right end — all 125 lbs. of him! The team was lightest in the Tri-County League. Yet they became undefeated league champs! Size didn’t matter. They scored 161 points — opponents only 13! Art turned down a college scholarship, worked hard instead on the farm, earned a judo black belt, and in 1939 was on the Pacific Northwest team that took honors in Los Angeles and visited the San Francisco World’s Fair. After Pearl Harbor, fear rocked the West Coast. The FBI took Art’s father for a time, as they did all Japanese community leaders. Art, eldest Koura son, offered to help the war effort, “We are berry farmers. We can plow our berries and plant potatoes, if it will help.” The government had other plans. Art and his family were uprooted along with over 120,000 others by presidential decree and taken to concentration camps in Manzanar, California. His grandfather died there two months later. Art saw a 12-year-old, who was retrieving a baseball outside the camp fence, shot by a tower guard. Art’s sister Sachiko (Nakata) and brother Tony became camp correspondents for the Bainbridge Review. Later, Koura’s family transferred to Minidoka, Idaho, where Art’s father returned and Art married Florence Yoshitake, a Seattle Garfield High School grad. Art and brother Noboru enlisted in the Army’s highly decorated, “Go For Broke,” 442nd Combat Team. Art served in Italy and nearly lost his left arm in the battle near Bruyeres, France, that saved the “Lost Battalion” at great sacrifice. Art and Flo returned to the Island after the war. The Raber family had helped look after the Manzanita farm and with Maldur Flodin had helped berry farm acreage grow to 190 acres, the island’s largest ever. Art and Flo’s family grew, too, with a son and daughter. A new and larger barn was built that still stands – one of the island’s most historic.
Art’s 8mm home movies (available to view at the local museum) recorded family and farm activities when harvests grew to exceed pre-war levels and Island Strawberry Fest visitors received free strawberries. Once, Art rallied to fill a 1,000 flat order for a major Seattle grocer! Pickers began with flashlights at 4 a.m. and continued to 9 p.m. Hundreds of farm workers and berry pickers helped the farm from around Kitsap County, western Washington and B.C. Art transported many on his school bus. Koura farm yielded to California berry competition in 1964. It was sold to become Meadowmere subdivision and golf course. Art became active in the community including 15 years with John L. Scott Realty. The U.S. Bicentennial “Grand Old Fourth” parade was stopped for Art Koura to present Grand Marshals Walt and Milly Woodward, former Bainbridge Review editors, with a Nisei Veteran’s Special Recognition and his personal, moving, expressions of gratitude for their not forgetting the Island’s uprooted Japanese neighbors during World War II. Twenty years later, Art’s home movies assisted in the authenticity of the film “Snow Falling on Cedars” that he was able to share with his old friend, Walt. Florence and Art had been married 63 years when she died in December 2007. With serious care challenges, both had moved to Seattle. Friends celebrated Art’s 90th birthday there in 2008 with strawberries and old memories. From his social hall, he could see the island he loved and that loved him. Art was also preceded in death by his sister Sachiko Nakata, and brothers Kenso and Noburo. He’s survived by brother Tony, sister Sue Furuta; daughter DyAnne (Chris) Middaugh, son Dale (Juanita) Koura; and several grandchildren. There will be only private, family services.

WHAT’S OLD IS NEW
Quality is key at Bainbridge’s new vintage stores BY LESLIE KELLY Contributing Writer
They say “Everything old is new again.” And on Bainbridge Island what’s old — or vintage — is new and is in a couple of new locations. Two stores that specialize in vintage clothing, home decor and gifts have opened recently. Sash Mercantile opened this past July in Lynwood and Meli-Melo Island Vintage Boutique opened in November on Bjune Drive in downtown Winslow.
Leslie Kelly | Bainbridge Island Review
Sash Mercantile Peggy Fish and Sally Samson began showing vintage items in July 2013 at the Pleasant Beach Market. They had a kiosk in the market for a year, prior to opening a retail location. But they didn’t go far. Their business is still in Lynwood, located at 4620 Lynwood Drive NE, Suite 2. “We loved the neighborhood,” Fish said. “We loved being part of this community. We wanted to stay down here with ‘the locals.’” They looked at other locations, including downtown Bainbridge, but decided on Lynwood because they wanted to get repeat customers and not just tourists. Fish and Samson have known each other for more than 20 years. Their children went to school together and they worked together on projects such as school auctions. It was what led

They both gathered up collectibles, including small furniture items, China dishes, teapots and pillows. The name they chose was Sash — a combination of Sally and Fish — their names. “We didn’t want to go with Sleggy,” Samson joked. Fish has been interested in collecting good used cloth-
ing for years. She loves great fabrics and vintage items, but she looks for anything that will sell. Quality and comfort are the key. “We have some special occasion dresses, but most of it is everyday wear,” she said. “Many items have never been worn before. Others are only slightly worn and we never take anything that’s ripped or been mended.” They also carry men’s clothing items, including shirts. While high-end designer labels aren’t their focus with clothes that they stock, they look for popular brands such as L.L. Bean, Eddie Bauer and Ralph Lauren — “anything
Northwest style,” Fish said. Their mission is to provide fun things for people to wear without having to spend too much. “Reusing, up-cycling and giving new life to things is part of what we do, too,” Fish said. “We love that concept.” And Samson added, they, like their customers, enjoy the “treasure hunt.” “Finding something that we know we can reuse is a great feeling,” she said. “And watching people come in and see things they have been looking for, that’s really fun.” With both the clothing and the handmade items, the focus is to keep prices low. “We get joy out of seeing

Fish also takes requests and watches out for specific items as she shops at second-hand stores for her store’s inventory. Samson is known for her use of vintage linens and what she can do with them. She and her friends shop garage sales for baby doll beds and cribs. She refurbishes and paints the beds and then makes bedding for the cribs out of hand-embroiders tablecloths, dresser scarves and pillowcases. “I just love seeing the faces on the grandmas and aunts that come in here, find the beds and see that they’re only $35 or $40,” Samson said. “They buy them to keep in their houses for the
grandkids and nieces and nephews to use when they come to visit.” Not all of them are pink, either. She paints some blue and has seen that little boys like to put their teddy bears to bed in them. Old-fashioned hand-embroidered samplers are another item she looks for. Often she’ll rescue them from under a pile of linens at a thrift store, block them, frame them and re-sell them. “People come in all the time and say ‘We had one like that at home when I was growing up,’” said Samson. Samson also sews overthe-shoulder bags from an array of fabrics and makes jewelry from old one-of-akind jewels and buttons. “I’ve had people bring in (jewelry) items that they want me to remake into something else,” she said. “Sometimes they have a favorite earring that they’ve lost the other one and I’ll use it in a necklace or bracelet.” Fair Trade bracelets made by women in Guatemala are another popular item. And they sell tea-towels, baby onesies and knitted baby caps made locally with a local flavor including motifs of ferries, the shape of Bainbridge Island and the famous Frog Rock. Sash Mercantile is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Email them at sashmercantile@gmail. com, or phone 206-271-2377. TURN TO VINTAGE | A20

VINTAGE CONTINUED FROM A19
Meli-Melo Island Vintage Boutique Karen Mar has been a collector of vintage fashions all her life. It was only after moving to Bainbridge Island with her husband four years ago that she decided she had to share her collection with others. That’s what prompted her to open Meli-Melo, a French term that means “a little bit of everything,” in downtown Bainbridge. The boutique includes nine vendors who show vintage items, home decor including some antique and shabby chic furniture, handmade jewelry and gifts. “It was always a dream of mine to open a vintage store,” Mar said. “It just seemed like the time was right.” She opened the shop in November and chose downtown Bainbridge because she thought it needed a vintage shopping option. “By creating a tiny vintage co-op, it not only fulfilled my dream, but it helped vendors bring their amazing finds, talents and passions to the area,” she said. “I know our islanders are loving what we have to offer, and many of them have come back several times to tell us that and look around some more.”
Some of her customers even tell her when they come in the door that they’re setting their phone alarms for one hour, or else they’d stay all day just looking around. Mar and her husband, Sid, knew each other in Laos where they both grew up and attended grade school. Thirty-seven years later they were re-united at a class reunion in San Francisco and fell in love and married. They lived in California until four years ago when her husband’s IT job brought them to Bainbridge Island. She has designed custom bridal veils, selling them online and directly to customers through bridal salons since 1995. In fact, Meli-Melo has a booth dedicated to wedding attire with vintage gowns and Mar’s handmade veils. She even stocks some more up-to-date bridal fashions which she gets from bridal salons. But nothing in that booth is more than $499. “My passion for vintage clothing, especially wedding attire, is because vintage looks classy and timeless,” she said. “And people who want vintage appreciate that they are using something that has a history. It makes them feel good to wear something that otherwise may not be used again.” While the Downton Abbey-style and the 1920s vintage look are popular right now with weddings, Mar said her favorite look is the 1970s. “In fact, my husband and I did

Karen Mar stands next to a collection of vintage wedding dresses in her downtown Bainbridge boutique Meli-Melo. a 1970s theme when we got married,” she said. “I had some stuff, but I had to make him a white suit with bell bottom pants because I couldn’t find one. “Everyone who attended the wedding wore ‘groovy’ outfits and the wedding cake had peace signs and smiley faces on it. It was the era that I grew up in — happy, with the ‘70s music.” It’s the retro-look that’s popular with women now for everyday wear. “You can see that in the outfits and hairstyles worn by celebrities such as Katie Perry and Gwen Stefani,” she said. “Retro is hot, but I think the Bohemian clothing style will never go away.”
She continues to shop estate sales to find items for her store. “I have been collecting for a long time,” she said. “I have gathered a lot of things. But every now and then, someone will just drop off an item that they no longer need. If it’s something I think will sell, I’ll take it.” In her store, there’s vendors who sell handmade wreathes and organic herb and spices from Paulson Farms. One booth has seasonal items and is now showing gifts for Valentine’s Day, including glass jars decorated with red ribbons and hearts. Another vendor has painting that are done by her daughter. The jewelry includes beaded items as well as earrings, pendants
and bracelets made from old watches. She also re-makes old sweaters and jean jackets into something new by adding lace and even ribbons to them. “We never throw anything away,” she said. “We repurpose everything.” In fact, the checkout counter was made from some 1920s barn wood. “A friend called and said he had some old doors and we’d better come get them before the rain ruined them,” she said. “I wasn’t sure what we’d do with them. But when we saw them, we knew they’d be perfect for our counter.” Because she has a large collection which she’s gathered for more than 30 years, the items in her store turn over often. “Every few days I just look around at my stuff and find something new to bring into the store,” she said. The women who have booths at the shop have become almost like family, she said. “We meet every month and talk about what’s happening,” she said. “Without them, this place wouldn’t have happened. They are my friends and we support each other.” Meli-Melo is located at 162 Bjune Drive SE, Bainbridge Island and the website is www.melimeloivb. com. The phone is 206-780-6700. Hours are 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 12:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday.

Last-minute Lakeside loss haunts BHS hoopsters BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Ten seconds can be a long time, a lesson the Spartans learned the hard way Tuesday night. The really hard way. The Bainbridge High varsity boys basketball team found themselves up by one point with just over 10 seconds left to go in the game’s final quarter, a frantic ending to a long, brutal war of attrition which began with an almost immediate tie in Tuesday’s home game against the visiting Lakeside Lions, and neither team being able to gain a lead for more than a moment or two throughout the contest. Two sunken Lakeside free throws later, and the Spartans were looking down the wrong end of a 67-66 score with 10.9 seconds left to play.

Spartans suffer 66-45 loss against Lions in girls hoops BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
The Bainbridge Spartans felt the bite of the Lakeside Lions Wednesday night as the girls varsity basketball team found themselves on the low end of a 66-45 home game. Lakeside, a long-time force within the Metro Mountain, boasts a 13-1 overall season record after the island win and remains the first-place team in the divisional standings. With the loss at home, Bainbridge’s season record fell to 5-9, securing for them the sixth-place spot in the standings. The visitors took the lead early and maintained a decided points advantage throughout the game, and led by seven, 26-19, at the end of the first half. Spartan Head Coach Nicole Hebner said that the early quarters were the better for the BHS squad, as Lakeside managed a bit of a run later in the game. “I thought we put a great effort forth,” Hebner said. “That’s the fourth-best ranked team in our state,” she said of the Lions. “They’re very well-coached, they execute well and they’ve got some phenomenal athletes.” Spartan senior Paige Brigham led the team in points, scoring 12 against Lakeside. The two second-best points earners were sophomores. Both Kiera Havill and Taylor Tye each managed six points. The lopsided loss will soon be a distant memory. With the season quickly drawing to a close, Hebner said that the important thing was to move forward and concentrate on the team’s remaining games. The Spartans traveled to face off against Ballard Friday, Jan. 30. The team’s final home game is slated for 7 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 4 against Ingraham High. That game will also mark Senior Night and the final home game for the team’s three senior players: Brigham, Kayla Buchmeier and Sydney Gibbs.

BHS senior guard Blake Swanson drives the ball down the court early in Tuesday’s home game against the Lakeside Lions.
LAKESIDE CONTINUED FROM A21
Indeed it was, one that started with a frantic first quarter and a rush of scoring that left things tied 2-2, and also ended in a 19-19 tie. Bainbridge claimed the lead by the end of the first half, outscoring Lakeside 12-10 in the second quarter. The Lions leaped back in front in the third, however, and again evened things up with a 21-19 quarter and the score knotted at 50-50. Bainbridge was then beaten, but barely, in the game’s final quarter. The loss at home dropped their overall season record to 7-7 and their league play record to 4-7. BHS is ranked in fifth-place in the Metro Mountain, behind Bishop Blanchet (9-8 overall). The ranking is unfortunate, Orness said, since this year’s Spartan squad has the skills to challenge any team in the league. “We’ve been playing a little tentatively instead of being aggressive at the end,” Orness explained. “We played hard, but we made mistakes.” “We turned the ball over twice with poor passing,” he explained. “We had a violation, and other turnovers. We had three turnovers in the last minute and a half that really killed us.” “Whether it’s a three in the key or poor passing or whatever, those are mistakes and unforced errors,” he added. “Unforced errors kill games.” Bainbridge behemoth, the 6-foot-9 senior wing/post Oskar Dieterich, led the team’s offensive efforts and scored 16 points. Fellow BHS senior Ben Beatie managed 14 throughout the night and sophomore guard/wing Lyle Terry chipped in 11. There are no nights off in the Metro League, Orness said, adding that dwelling on the loss is not the same as remembering it. “We’ve got to learn from this and hopefully grow,” he said. The Spartans will get their first chance to move on from Tuesday’s unpleasantness when they travel to face off against Ballard High Friday, Jan. 30. The boys then turn right around and host Kingston at 5 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 31 for their last home game of the season.

Spartan freshman Ethan Kutia rounded out the pack of Bainbridge swimmers in the 500-yard freestyle race during last week’s swim meet against Lakeside at the Bainbridge Aquatics Center.
Swimmers come up short against Lions BAINBRIDGE - Lakeside used powerful performances in the 200-yard individual medley and the 100-yard butterfly to edge Bainbridge 111-75 last week in boys swimming and diving at the Bainbridge Aquatic Center. The Lions piled up points early in the 200-yard medley relay, and qualified for the state 3A championships at the same time, before adding to their advantage with second- and third-place wins in the 200-yard free. Lakeside was well on its way to the team with by claiming the first and second spots in the 200-yard IM, where the Lion’s Carter Jacobsen qualified for state with a time of 2:01.59. Bainbridge won four of the 12 events. Sam Alpaugh was first in the 200-yard freestyle, and won the race in 1:58.37. Fellow Spartan Parker Bushey claimed first in the 50-yard freestyle in 23:09. Bushey also won the 100yard freestyle. He had a firstplace time of 50.71. Dylan Garthwaite, Bainbridge’s frosh phenom diver, once again took the top score in 1-meter diving. He finished first with a score of 174.40. Teammate Gabe Emert was second with 158.70. LAKESIDE VS. BAINBRIDGE RESULTS 200-YARD MEDLEY RELAY First: Lakeside A, 1:43.33

Bainbridge beats Metro League foes SEATTLE - The Bainbridge High varsity wrestling squad made short work of their opponents from both Rainier Beach and West Seattle during a recent quad match hosted by Bishop Blanchet. The Spartans soared through their first round against West Seattle, 33-18, and beat both wrestlers they faced from Rainier Beach in Round 2 as well. BHS claimed a win in nearly every single match in Round 1. A double forfeit negated the 106-pound bracket, and Bainbridge senior Jordan Jackson won by forfeit in the 113-pound match. Koa Goff also claimed a forfeit win in the 120pound match, and then, in the 126-pound bracket, Cade Topham pinned West Seattle’s Anthony Tran in 1:49. West Seattle’s Keagen Reidt won the 132-pound match by forfeit, as did Nick Outley in the 138pound class. Bainbridge’s Nate Michaels claimed a forfeit win in the 145-pound bracket and West’s Sam Blackett did likewise to take the 152-pound match. Then, in the 160-pound match, Bainbridge’s Aaron Jumpa won a 5-2 decision over Miguel Cervantes. Double forfeits marked the end of the 170-, 195-,
220- and 285-pound matches, however. In the 182-pound bracket, Liam Topham pinned W. Seattle’s James Applewhite in 1:25. In the first of two matches against Rainier Beach, Goff pinned his opponent in 1:46 to lock up the 120-pound match for Bainbridge.

The BHS victory was fueled by an outstanding showing in the 200-yard individual medley and the 400-yard freestyle relay, where the Spartans swept the top three spots in both events. In the 200 IM, Sam Alpaugh was first in 2:10.45, with teammate Jack Riley right behind in 2:25.18. Mason Ogden was third for Bainbridge in 2:34.12. The Spartans were also first in the 200-yard medley relay, 200-yard freestyle, 100-yard freestyle, 500-yard freestyle, 200-yard freestyle relay and 100-yard backstroke.

LYNWOOD CONTINUED FROM A1
The developers, Jeb and Belinda Thornburg, are also founders of Indigo Architecture & Interiors. They gave the crowd an overview of the design of the proposed project that’s expected to be built west of a vacant lot and paved parking area on Lynwood Center Road, between Baker Hill Road and Point White Drive. The 5-acre development includes two inns, a mix of single-family homes and townhomes, a restaurant and a market g. “We know that change is part of what happens in a community,” said Jeb Thornburg. “Part of growth is figuring out ways to accommodate it in a positive way.” Four-year resident Heidi Huber came out to the meeting after reading about it in the newspaper. She lives in the nearby Blakely Heights neighborhood and said she came to find out exactly what the new development would entail.
She, like other residents, worried about potential traffic snarls. “It seems a little faster than normal,” she said of the development plans. “I’m just trying to stay informed about what’s happening.” Huber lives with her daughter and husband, and said she would “prefer to see it stay the same” when it comes to the Lynwood area. “It was hard to see this property pop up,” she said, referring to the Lynwood Center. Traffic will get a closer look in the coming months. Bainbridge Island city officials said during the meeting that a traffic study will be conducted soon to gauge the possible impact of the development. The traffic study should be available to residents in about a month, the developers said. The development will also add 118 parking stalls on site, including 90 spots for the general public, the Thornburgs said. Developers expect to break
COACH CONTINUED FROM A1
Abbott fell off his bike and was taken to the fire department’s Station 21 on Madison Avenue and then airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle. The details of how the accident happened weren’t immediately clear. “We’re not 100 percent sure what caused it,” Carpenter said. Friends close to Abbott said he once worked as an airline pilot and later worked and retired from Boeing. Stephen Johnson, a longtime friend of Abbott’s, said his friend’s passionate nature contributed to his ability to instruct kids in a variety of outdoor sports. “The real love of his life is being an instructor and coach for young people in skiing, sailing and mountain biking. He worked to recruit kids who might not normally have been inclined, or had the wherewithal, to engage

Jay Abbott, head coach of Bainbridge’s middle school mountain bike team, was seriously injured during a team training ride Sunday. in these activities,” Johnson said. “He particularly worked to get more girls involved in mountain biking and searched out and fixed up bikes for kids who didn’t have them.” Gordon Black was approached by Abbott three years ago when he asked if he could volunteer to help with the Gear Grinders team. The Bainbridge Island Gear Grinders, founded in 2011 by Black, is a youth mountain bike racing club with both high school and middle
ground in April, starting with utilities and other site preparation. Sewer and water — another point of concern for residents — will be handled by the South Bainbridge Island Water System and Sewer District No. 7. City officials added that a recent study done on the island’s water supply showed it would not be burdened by additional growth. Not much clearing will be done. According to Jeb Thornburg, 90 percent of the tree canopy is expected to stay, including a blue spruce that will be used as a holiday tree. The first phase will include the construction of 18 homes — including townhomes — that vary in size. While prices are not set, the expected price range is expected to be between $430,000 and $725,000 for the houses. Townhomes would be “worklive” spaces and average around $815,000 to include commercial space. The second phase would add a
school-aged teams that compete in race events around the region. “We were delighted to have him,” Black said. “Initially he was our team mechanic, fixing up kids’ bikes for the races and helping the kids keep their bikes in good running shape.” In 2013, the group’s youth league expanded and a middle school team was added. Abbott agreed to be the head coach, working regularly with the kids in the group, Black said. “His affection for the kids, coaching and mountain biking is apparent to anyone who has seen him on the rides — he is a devoted, reliable, a firm and fair coach,” Black said. Abbott’s “infectious friendliness” is one of the prominent traits some of his friends loved best. He was known for stopping on trails to chat with others, and he often gave out dog biscuits to pups sharing the trails he frequented so often.

commercial space in three buildings that may include a restaurant. Six freestanding inn cottages, called “Gypsy Wagons,” would be built next to a pocket park that would also be developed on the property as well. A boutique hotel is planned, and the Indigo founders expect to own it and run it, Belinda Thornburg said. “We will continue to be involved,” she said. “It’s not the next Best Western coming to town.” While some residents worried about a new commercial space coming in, local business owner Walt Hannon thinks it will be fine. Hannon, owner of Walt’s Lynwood Market, said as long as the developers consider what is already in the commercial district, the new development is a bonus to the already thriving area. “You can’t put the same thing in there,” he said. “(Because) then you slice the pie too thin and nobody gets anything.”
Parking may still be an issue, Hannon said, but he hopes it won’t be since the increased activity could be a good thing for his own business. “Overall, so far, I feel like it’s been good for us,” he said. “People had general concerns about the parking, sewer and water. I hope they will be sensitive to what they put in there. I also live in the neighborhood, so I have a vested interest, too.” The land is currently undeveloped. A portion of the land was previously used by Larson Lumber, and the eastern part of the property has been used as a horse and cattle pasture for the past 40 years. The project is not being designed to fit with the Tudor-style that’s much on display in Pleasant Beach architecture, according to Indigo’s current plans. Plans also include three water storage towers, which Indigo noted would be used for storing surface rainwater runoff for landscaping irrigation.
SEAHAWKS CONTINUED FROM A1
Coleen Edwards, a travel desk volunteer at the Bainbridge Island Senior Center, said she’ll be watching the game from her easy chair. Her prediction is 21-17, and even if that’s not the exact score, she imagines it will be close. “I think we need to do away with the first half and just play the second half,” she said. Her daughter, Nancy Hunziker, has even higher hopes for the Seahawks. After being banned all last year from watching the Seahawks games — they lost each time she watched — she’s thrilled to see her team back at the top. “Of course the Hawks are gonna win,” she said. “43-3.” BHS Cheer Squad Head Coach Tawnya Jackson said that she just knew

Coleen Edwards and her daughter Nancy Hunziker, stand together outside their Bainbridge Island apartment wearing Seahawks gear. the Hawks would win, but would not be surprised if it was another nail-biting fourth-quarter comeback. “Well, we’re going to win,” she laughed. “They’re not going to play as well in the first half, but then the second half is when they’re going to come back. The final score? Jackson said 30-21.
At Seabold United Methodist Church, which is hosting a food drive in connection with the Super Bowl, Pastor Robert Henre said he also has faith in the home team. “My prediction is 31-24 Seahawks, though God could care less about who wins. I do and so does Seabold UMC ... Go Hawks!”

Friday, January 30, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
Obituary Harold Earl Peachey Harold Earl Peachey was born at Harrison Memorial Hospital in Bremer ton to Howard M. Peachey and Lucille R i g n e y Peachey on March 20, 1948. He passed away Jan. 2, 2015 in Oxford, North Carolina. Harold, known as “Peachey” by friends and family, was raised on Bainbridge Island. He graduated Bainbridge High School with the class of 1967. He was drafted into the Army and proudly served three tours of duty in Viet Nam on Lark River Boats. He always wanted to see a live Bob Hope Christmas show, but the closest he ever got was two clicks away. He thought he might be pushing his luck after three tours and decided to come home. Upon returning from overseas, Peachey found it hard to find a job, so he relocated to Illinois to work as a machinist. He met and married the
love of his life, Joann, while in the Chicago area. Joann had children from a previous marriage, LaVona and Deanna, who Peachey would raise as his own. The marriage would end with the passing of Joann from cancer. Peachey continued to raise the children, even after his company relocated to North Carolina. Once the girls were old enough, they moved out and started families of their own. LaVona would eventually move back, bringing her own two children with her. Peachey formed a close relationship with his grandchildren. It has been a happy family home for the past 10 years. He often said “his life was full and good.” Peachey was diagnosed with cancer in early December. He was told to settle his affairs as the cancer would likely take him in three to six months. However, he would only survive another four weeks. Peachey was predeceased by his parents, his wife Joann, and his brother Ralph M. Peachey. He leaves his daughter LaVona Marie Hunter; grandsons Camron and Lucas; sister Ellen Peachey Ragland of Greene, Iowa; and cousins Louise McNulty (Pinky) of

Bainbridge Island company looks to clean up at Super Bowl XLIX Green Mountain Technologies to help handle tons of food waste from this year’s festivities BY SERAINE PAGE Bainbridge Island Review
A local business is trailing right behind the Seahawks on the road to Phoenix to take care of the dirty details that most folks don’t think about when it comes to the big game. Bainbridge-based Green Mountain Technologies (GMT) has been contracted by the city of Phoenix to assist in making sure 30 to 50 tons of food waste and compostables make it to the right containers at pre-Super Bowl parties. “Seattle has been setting the
standard for food waste composting at events such as the Mariners and Seahawks games. The city of Phoenix is interested in emulating Seattle’s event composting success,” said Green Mountain Technologies CEO Michael BryanBrown. “By promoting composting for these Super Bowl festivities, the city of Phoenix is setting the standard for all Super Bowls to come.” Phoenix will host about 100,000 visitors for the Super Bowl alone. A new 12-block fan campus is expected to draw nearly one million fans, according to the Arizona Super Bowl Host Committee. Long before GMT employees knew the Hawks were going to the Super Bowl, they were working with the city of Phoenix to help design a municipal compost system similar to ones the company has designed in other cities.

Since 1992, the company has worked with organizations to reduce their environmental footprint, save money and produce high-quality compost. “One of the main motivations to do it is to use a high-profile event like the Super Bowl to start educating the citizens of Phoenix that composting is viable and is almost like a kick-off for their long-term curbside program,” Bryan-Brown said.

BLUE FRIDAY
Special Seahawk Content Road to the BIG GAME
Seahawks vs. Patriots: How the QBs compare By RICH MYHRE Sound Publishing At first glance, there is little resemblance between Tom Brady of the New England Patriots and Russell Wilson of the Seattle Seahawks, the two starting quarterbacks in Super Bowl XLIX. At 6 feet 4 inches, Brady is 5 inches taller than Wilson. At 37, Brady is also 11 years older than Wilson. But there is also a difference in style, with Brady a prototype pocket passer and Wilson a threat to throw on rollouts and even scramble for additional yards as a nimble runner. For all these reasons, no one is likely to confuse Brady and Wilson in Sunday’s NFL championship game. But for all the differences, there are similarities, too. Certainly in terms of their careers, with the regular-season statistics for Brady’s first
three years as a starter (his second, third and fourth NFL seasons) very closely matching Wilson’s numbers in his first three seasons. Brady, who played at Michigan before becoming a sixth-round draft pick in 2000, has a modest edge in passing attempts, completions and yards, while Wilson, who attended Wisconsin before being drafted in the third round in 2012, has a slight edge in completion percentage and touchdowns, while also throwing fewer interceptions. The records of the two teams are also very close for those same three seasons. Brady led his team to a combined 34-14 regular-season mark and two Super Bowl titles between 2001-03, while the Seahawks under Wilson are 36-12 with one Super Bowl championship and another still up for grabs. “They have the commonality of being two guys that are great winners,” Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said. “Tom has had a
long time to prove that. Russell is at the early stages of proving that to the world, but I think he’s got a chance to be similar.” Indeed, others say, what unites Brady and Wilson goes beyond raw numbers. The two quarterbacks are alike in their inner drive and in a steadfast determination to help their teams win.
first thing that comes to my mind is they’re both winners. Tom Brady has won in this league for a long, long time, and Russell is only in his third year and he’s been winning pretty well in his own right. “I think both them are ultimate competitors. They almost will their teams to victories in many different ways,” Bevell said.
“Both guys are leaders, and the other similarity they both have is their heart, which you cannot coach,” said Lawyer Milloy, a former All-Pro safety who was Brady’s teammate for the latter’s first two NFL seasons. “(Brady and Wilson) both have a passion, a desire and a will to prove something,” added Milloy, a former University of Washington player from Tacoma who is retired from football and is back in the Puget Sound area, where he has a chance to watch Wilson play every week. Seahawks offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell agrees. Asked for similarities between Brady and Wilson, Bevell said, “The
Carl Smith, Seattle’s quarterbacks coach, has obviously spent a lot of time with Wilson in his three Seahawks seasons. Likewise, Smith came close to coaching Brady, having been with Carroll when he was New England’s head coach. Carroll and Smith left the Patriots a few months before Brady was drafted in 2000. When it comes to common traits for Brady and Wilson, Smith said, “the first thing that comes to mind is that they’re both in the Super Bowl, and that’s a big one. They’ve both been very successful and
they’ve both won since they started playing. They were both instant winners in the NFL. “They obviously have different
12
styles and they run different offenses,” Smith said, “but they’re both really good in their offenses. And they both have the drive to be great.”

THE STARS AND THE
W
ho would have thought the long-awaited Age of Aquarius would arrive as a demonstration of shining possibilities by a football team. Yes, we won the NFC Championship in a dramatic string of miracles, but what we truly witnessed was the principles of Aquarius in dynamic action.
During my moments of doubt, mid-fourth quarter, I entertained myself with the Seahawks’ astrological chart, wondering what the stars had to say. The Seahawks are born under the heroic sign of Leo. But, standing beside the Sun is Saturn, the taskmaster. In order for Leo — the Seahawks — to shine, Saturn demands blood, sweat and tears, even failure. Give him his due, however, and expect radiance.

eeling fried? The electrical craziness of Jan. 20’s Aquarian new moon settles down with Mercury retrograde giving us a chance to figure out where in the world we are shooting off to. To survive the upheaval in our society, everyone needs to figure out a personal mission statement — a two-year process is coming up — but we know deep inside we can’t keep throwing everything we’ve got at the wall and getting stuck with what sticks! The Feb. 3 full moon in Leo teams up with expansive Jupiter, also retrograde, and lined up with slow moving Saturn who puts a damper on the party. This combination deepens the question of
where are we going so fast, do we really want to go there, and heck, is it fun? Pisces energy softens intensity, as Mars — the god of war — waltzes with his goddess of love, Venus. We need this quiet break, people, so plan a few fun, mindless dates. Valentine’s at the General Store Cafe in Port Gamble? Quiet time in front of a slot machine at The Point or the Clearwater Casino? An art or nature walk? Find your zen somehow.
horoscopes
Feb. 3-18 Aquarius, you may or may not be the problem in the your larger circle of friends. Stay true to yourself as you wait it out. A close friend could hold the mirror for you. Meanwhile, proceed cautiously with organizational plans. Pisces, you are oh, so (too) willing to give yourself up for the greater good but, my little angel, your body must be tended to. However you do that, make it fun. Maybe a spa date at the Longworth Studio with your best pal could perk you up and leave you looking good. Aries, your body is

SEAHAWKS
A special column by Kitsap Week’s astrologer, Suzanne O’Clair

With nothing happening on the field to back up my analysis, I said, “The team chart says these guys are going to the Super Bowl, again. I don’t get how, but it’s their destiny.” The Seahawks must have earned Saturn’s approval because something stepped in late in that championship game — luck, angels, fate, Uranus — and miracles materialized. Russell Wilson’s Leo moon matches up with the
Seahawks’ sun, and the Marshawn Lynch’s moon aligns with the Libra moon in the team’s chart. Many team members have associations like these to the Seahawks, and they all spell destiny. Will the Super Bowl be another miracle? The team chart is the core of the matter and Aquarius comes forward this time in opposition to their Leo sun. They need a worthy opponent to push against to win Saturn’s approval once again. Then Uranus, the wild card of the planets and ruler of Aquarius, can shift chaos into genius. This year may be a more up front and personally-emotional game for the team. The key is to think like spiritual warriors with focused intensity full of respect, love and compassion for teammates
SIGNS Aries: March 21 - April 19 Taurus: April 20 - May 20 Gemini: May 21 - June 20 Cancer: June 21 - July 22 Leo: July 23 - Aug. 22 Virgo: Aug. 23 - Sept. 22 Libra: Sept. 23 - Oct. 22 Scorpio: Oct. 23 - Nov. 21 Sagittarius: Nov. 22 - Dec. 21 Capricorn: Dec. 22 - January 19 Aquarius: Jan. 20 - Feb. 18 Pisces: Feb. 19 - March 20 a transforming station for electrical energy. Seriously, touching others can heal them. Remember not everything can be figured out — let information come to you through dreams, repetitive images, song lyrics or time with your goddess of love. Taurus, work is busy and as hard to organize as a basket of kittens. Home looks oh, so far away and the god and goddess combo is a direct hit to your heart. Take a gentle, wandering, unfocused stroll with your sweetie or dog. Nature is always a balm for you. Gemini, your friend Mercury, going retrograde, slows you down enough to realize how fast you’ve been moving. You seriously need a mission statement ... not too little, and not too big, but just right so you can stick to it and not get bored. Logic is
your strong suit but gentle dreams saturate the air. All is information you can use to find your north star. Cancer, in a real sense, any full moon is your full moon because the moon is your ruler. This one has you pondering resources, time, money, energy and your body on two levels: how you use those for yourself and in close partnerships. You give a lot, but you also soak up a lot from others. Taking care of your body is a habit you must practice. Leo, this is your full moon. Yahoo! Cozied up to Jupiter and wired to Aquarius, you are totally ready to party with brilliant, weird and wired friends and lovers. You may even enjoy a moment in the spotlight — dancing on the table tops or dazzling others with your wisdom. Your personal statement is well on its
and opponents. Pete Carroll, the Virgo strategist, is unlikely to lose sight of reality. The sign of miracles is Pisces — a water sign which is heavily represented in the chart for Superbowl day, and in the Seahawks’ chart, especially in Carroll’s. He’s brought in the miracle-making tools of Pisces — meditation, tai-chi and yoga. His genius lies in showing us that you can do everything right, but to invite the miracle in, you must add love. For the fans, the hidden miracle we were privy to was seeing the Age of Aquarius arrive on the wings of the Seahawks. We are entering a 2,600 year age. We should be taking mere baby steps in a new direction. But, it seems the Seahawks got
the Aquarian Age memo before the rest of us and they have forged ahead with the new blueprint. The formula: build up every person until he is radiant in his own right and teach him to collaborate with the larger group to bring forth something new and exciting — a better team, a better world. Our team showed us our future and we can honor the Seahawks by applying these ideals in daily life and being rewarded, individually and collectively. What does the future hold for the Seahawks? Would we want to know ahead of time? No, we love football because anything can happen during any game, especially when stars and destiny collide on a football field.
way and others seek your guidance. Virgo is another friend of retrograde Mercury. Getting the nitty-gritty of life just right takes real perception and observation. Watch yourself as though a little drone flies over your head taking notes. You have a guardian angel, willing to help if you ask. Messages await in dreams. Libra, Aquarius is such a kick with the snap, crackle, pop of creativity. Circulate among large groups and wacky friends to get the most out of this moon. Venus and Mars may be showing you exactly where you’ve lost your focus in your ‘handson, get the work done’ routines. Ahhhh, there it is! Scorpio, technology is fun — when it works. Electricity at your base could be burning out systems. What tools do you really need, and which are toys not worth your time? The Mars/Venus dance shows up in your area of fun and romance. Let someone take you down a soft, fuzzy road. It’s not natural for you, but you need the break. Sagittarius, we can only hope the Seahawks’ Russell Wilson has as fortunate a full moon as you are up for. While hanging out in the personal arenas of your life, you’re pondering your pole star. What is a mission statement that includes heart and tender-
ness, and recognizes that everyone needs recognition? Capricorn, power behind the scenes must work for individual power — then a culture has true justice and power. Heavy, man. Keep the faith, speak with compassion about the 1 percent and lean into your mission. You aren’t alone — look behind you where many join the grassroots revolution. OMG, you are a leader!

Getting fit, healthy and sticking with it Kitsap’s workout experts give tips on accomplishing your get-fit goals BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Kitsap Week
M
aking a New Year’s resolution to get fit and healthy is almost as much of a tradition as ditching those goals shortly after the holiday. Industry experts know the season of reflection plays a significant part in people running to gyms, clubs and more. On average, 12.1 percent of gym memberships are purchased in January. That drops to 9.3 percent in February, and those two numbers are the highest of the years. The rate drops to 6.9 percent in July, and rises to 8 percent in December, according to the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association, an organization that represents the gym industry. The association provides plenty of insights into the fitness scene. Barre and Pilates are the top two group exercise activities for women. Tai Chi and kickboxing are the most popular for men. The association has found that Baby Boomers enjoy more traditional aerobics exercises. Barre, yoga and cross training are the forms of exercise most utilized by Generation Y. There’s a lot to consider when undertaking get-fit goals. Diets, tips, exercises, and more compete for attention in the fitness scene. But Kitsap’s fitness gurus have a few words of advice for those who have started a get-fit journey. There are many paths to getting healthy, and local experts know a thing or two to stay on your path. Here’s what they advise. Colby Morse, Agate Pass CrossFit, Poulsbo “The work you put in creates the results you get out,” Morse said. Make realistic and attainable goals. Having big goals isn’t a bad thing

”Prepare for a lifestyle change. Nothing temporary like a short-term diet or a short-term get-fit plan.”

and we all have them but smaller goals is a great way to show your self improvement. If you make too big of goals in too short of time then it can be discouraging if they are not met. Diet is the key to success. It doesn’t matter how much exercise you are doing if you aren’t eating right. You must give your body the proper fuel to perform. Go the extra mile and Consult with a nutritionist. Plan your work out days and stick to them/

Little bits every day, and don’t sweat it if you miss a work out or two, just get back on the horse.” Prepare for a lifestyle
change, nothing temporary like a short-term diet or a short-term get-fit plan. Keep it an accumulative program focused on all aspects of fitness, strength, cardiovascular and flexibility. You’ll want a balanced routine for full mobility of the body. It’s like a tripod, one leg is cardiovascular, the other one is strength, and the other is flexibility. If you knock one of those off it will fall down. Making long-term changes in nutrition is a priority. Stop looking at food as recreation and focus on things you should be eating, health wise. Understand the relationship between the food you eat and what it will do to the body. Part of the problem is that there are about 1,000 diets out there on the market place. People keep looking at the “what” versus the “why.” Look at it as a constant learning process. Constantly look to add new things to the routine, new moves on the floor, keep looking for foods and supplementation. Don’t look at it like you’ve already got everything in the bag. Use your resources, whether it’s the Internet, YouTube, hiring a trainer, or hiring a nutritionist. If you don’t know, be inquisitive and ask, rather than do what most people will do, which is fly blind and when they don’t get results they get discouraged. — West Coast Fitness 4740 Ramsey Road Southeast, Port Orchard. 360-874-2818 Michael Rosenthal, owner of Island Fitness, Bainbridge Island “Exercise and fitness is not one-size-fits-all,” Rosenthal said. “The key to success is finding the right plan for you.” Set realistic goals. Setting goals is an excellent way to stay on plan. If you want to run a marathon, start with learning proper running form. If you want to climb Mount Rainier, leave yourself plenty of time to train; our Train-to-Climb program is six months long, for example. Set yourself up for success.

Movement pattern assessment is critical to a successful plan. Work with a trainer, if possible.

Find a train-
er who you have a comfortable rapport with so that you want to show up. Understand nutrition. Many people think they do, but nutrition is more than the latest fad or diet. The right nutrition is at least half of what will lead to success or failure in reaching your goal, whether it’s weight loss, weight management or an athletic endeavor. Get a work-out buddy. Meeting with a trainer or even a work-
out buddy adds to your personal accountability. Accountability is key to success. A work out buddy not only gives you the accountability, it also helps to pass the time. Make it fun. When done properly, exercising
can be enjoyable and motivating. If getting motivated is difficult for you, try a class. Classes range from dance to yoga to cycling, Pilates and more. Classes are 30 minutes to 1.5 hours long. There are lots of options

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Life coach helps clients with health and wellness
Taking charge of your own health is often the key By LESLIE KELLY

atherine Van Slyke has always been into fitness and health. But it took seeing her mother — who was ill with cancer — turn her life over to doctors that made Van Slyke realize she wanted to help others take control of their health and wellness. “She was handing her body over to the doctors,” Van Slyke said. “She wasn’t taking ownership for her physicality.” Watching that, and finding herself busy with young children and not paying attention to her own health, Van Slyke knew things needed to change. “I really wanted to get healthy,” she said. “I’d struggled with my weight all my life and I just didn’t want to go on another diet. I wanted to own my health and happiness.” That, she said, took tapping into something deeper. She knew she had to “drive her own ship.” So, she enrolled in a program to become certified as a professional wellness coach. She enrolled in the

Katherine Van Slyke Her approach to each client is different and depends on the personal goals each client has. “The goal is always to get to a place where we’re healthy and feel good about ourselves,” she said. “There’s no one method.” It does include looking at “self-talk,” she said. “When someone comes to me and says they’re miserable in their skin, that they know they need to lose weight and that they aren’t healthy, just giving them exercises and telling them what to eat may help for awhile,” she said. “But

Typical clients work with her for a year. She meets in person with clients and over the phone, sometimes using Skype. Her clients range in age from the mid-30s to the mid-60s. Not everyone she sees has issues with weight. Her clients have included individuals coming back from cancer and strokes, and trying to face the physical limitations they now have. “Disease limits our physical capability,” she said. “I work with those clients to focus on what’s possible.” Another client was someone who was the “caretaker” for everyone around her, and hence, put herself last. Creating a way for her to make time to care for herself was the goal. Coaching clients in wellness means creating new ways of communicating

from within, Van Slyke said. “As humans, we create habits and patterns,” she said. “Negative self-talk falls into that. There’s a science component to it where hormones are released and we actually can become addicted to it. “You have to be aware of that and replace the negative patterns with positive ones.” Her coaching has not only been a success professionally, but personally. She’s gotten healthier herself and she’s much happier. “I was in my 40s and just sitting around with my kids and I said to myself, ‘I don’t want to feel like this,’ ” she said. “Since becoming a coach and taking control of my health, the quality of my life is just outstanding.” To contact Van Slyke , email katherinevanslyke@ gmail.com, or call 206-3538583.

if you don’t get at the negative self-talk that’s going on, ultimately, the person will go back to their old habits.” So, her coaching work includes helping each client look at their inner critic. But it differs from psychotherapy and mental health counseling. “With psychotherapy, the person looks back at their life — at the trauma — and tries to find the root of the issue or the negative feelings,” she said. “In health coaching, we work from the now and move forward. We work to erase the bad habits and what’s getting in the way. In coaching, the client is the expert. They tap into what’s getting in their way.” The work includes “homework” tasks including noticing when the negative self talk happens and replacing it with positive messages. “These steps help to develop new pathways to create new habits,” she said.

Valhalla Dental has new owner, new look

inding a great new home for his dental practice and for his family is what brought Richard Weatherill to Poulsbo. And he’s loving it. “This is just the kind of place I always thought I’d end up when I started a practice and a family,” Weatherill said. “This is the perfect opportunity for us.” Last fall, Weatherill purchased the dental practice from Dr. Kevin Pulver. After 32 years as a dentist, Pulver decided to retire and sold Valhalla Dental Clinic located at 19365 Seventh Ave. NE, Suite 106, to Weatherill. Weatherill’s first day in charge was Oct. 13. Since that time, he’s been busy seeing patients Monday through Thursday, and in the off hours, renovating the office. “We’d see our last patient on Thursday afternoon and then from Thursday night to Sunday evening, we were in here working,” he said. The clinic has new dental equipment and chairs, flooring, carpeting, computers and software programs, Additionally, he added digital X-rays, and an inter-oral digital camera. “The camera is about the size of a pen and can capture an image that the patient can see on a (television) screen,” he said. “It’s a great way for a dentist to show a patient what’s really going on.” And he said, the digital X-rays are instantaneous and have one-tenth the radiation exposure, he said. One thing has remained the same. “I kept the name — Valhalla Dental,” he said. “It’s a good name. It suits the community and I wanted to keep that theme going.” He’s also added some sandwich boards that

bear characters of teeth in Viking hats. Weatherill grew up in Jasper, Alberta, Canada and attended the University of Calgary where he earned bachelor’s degrees in zoology and psychology. From there he went to study in Sydney, Australia at a dental school that is internationally known. After graduating in 2006, he completed one year of dental residency at

Although it seems like a “duh” statement, avoiding sugary foods is pivotal to help ensure dental health.

He then spent three years working in a private dental practice in Richland before coming to Western Washington, where he was in practice two years in Sequim. “We just love this area,” he said of he and his wife, Angela, and their 21-month-old daughter Victoria. “When we were in Sequim, we’d spend the weekends here in Kitsap County doing family things.”
So, when he found a clinic for sale in Poulsbo, he jumped at the chance to purchase it. He inherited about 1,600 patients but is taking new patients. He sees all ages and does general dentistry, and focuses on restorative work and cosmetic implants. He takes emergencies too. He employs one hygienist, two dental assistants, a front office assistant, and his wife who has an accounting background, is

the business’s bookkeeper. Being up with the latest technology and knowledge in dentistry is important to Weatherill. He takes at least 50 hours of continuing education each year and plans for his staff to go to dental conferences as a team. “This isn’t the ‘Dr. Rick Show,’ ” he said. “We work as a team and we are a great team. I’m committed to continuing my education and theirs.” He is a member of the American Dental Association, the Washington State Dental Association, the Kitsap County Dental Society, the Academy of General Dentistry and leads the study club. His office is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays and he will soon expand those hours. Positive experience is what he aims to give. “Some people do fear the dentist,” he said. “But it can be an enjoyable experience. I was lucky. I had a great dentist as a kid and he’s been my role model. “What we’re doing is offering dental care in a more relaxed environment. We don’t want patients to feel we are rushing them like they’re being spun through a factory.” And, just to keep things on the up-and-up with the kids, he has a treasure box filled with “sticky hands,” stickers, pens and pencils. “Certainly the kids get something after their exam is over,” he said. Weatherill accepts most dental insurance plans and has flexible payment options. He provides free oral cancer screenings, free second opinions, and help with understanding dental insurance. “We welcome anyone looking for a great dental experience,” he said. “Contact us or, even better, come in and see us.”
Rinse out your mouth with mouthwash, or at least water, after every meal. This practice will help kill germs and prevent others from knowing you had onions on your sandwich.

Personal training is a calling for her By LESLIE KELLY

S
he’s been working out since seventh grade, at about the time Jazzercise came out. But through a calling from God, Rebecca Diehl has made her passion for exercise and her passion for people into a business. Diehl, who says she’s “over 40,” became certified as a personal trainer almost five years ago by the National Federation of Professional Trainers. She instructs clients at Westcoast Fitness in Port Orchard and in clients’ homes. It all started very innocently, she said. “There was one of those local ‘Biggest Loser’ contests and a woman I know asked me to help her,” Diehl said. “She was a teacher and knew that I worked out a lot. “After that, the owner of the gym where I worked
out said they needed trainers and asked me if was I certified. I wasn’t but I thought ‘I’ve always done it and I’ve always been into it but I never said it out loud.’ So I prayed about it and I figured out that this was my calling.” Her work isn’t just helping clients learn about physical exercise. It’s a combination of emotional, spiritual and physical work. “Everybody knows that there’s more to it just working out,” she said. “You have to look at what’s making the person want to improve themselves and their goals are.” She refers to that as her Cheez-It lesson. “I tell my clients that they are too valuable to eat Cheez-Its over and over,” she said. “If they truly understand how valuable they are, then they’ll make time for exercise and they’ll begin to treat themselves better.”
BALANCE
She also knows that when life gets busy, exercise is one of the things that falls by the wayside. “The first thing to go is exercise,” she said. “The second thing is quiet time and the third is our diet.” Even she faces that sometimes. “When that happens, I make my husband drag me to the gym,” she said. “It’s especially hard in January when it’s dark and gray.” Diehl has lived in Port Orchard for 17 years and is originally from San Diego. She and her family relocated to Port Orchard for her husband’s construction job. They have four sons, ages 20, 18, 16, and 12. When her boys were young, she had an in-home gym, but as soon as they were old enough to be left alone, she’d head to the gym for a hour. Now, in addition to working with clients from 10 to

Health strategies and science: Because you are worth it By REBECCA DIEHL
EXERCISE
Rebecca Sidden
e live in the most amazing time in the history of the world. We have access, as an entire nation, to more resources, opportunities and food than the richest people had throughout history. Being overweight in past societies was a sign of wealth and beauty. Do you feel like the richest society ever? Most people don’t. Why is that? In order to obtain the best health today, what do we know? Eat less and move more. Drink a lot more water. Eat natural foods, not processed foods. Exercise 60 minutes per day. Get the sleep you need. Finally, drop the bad habits that contribute negatively to your health. You know what they are. We know what to do so why is it so hard to actually do it? Along with all of the wonderful things that 2015 has to offer, it also comes with challenges and temptations like no other society has ever faced. We have so many choices. Indulgences in food and experiences abound, and modern conveniences free us to fill our lives up with more things to do than just provide for the basics of life. The stress of so many choices adversely affects our health. Stress must be managed. Strategy can be applied to get and stay fit, and science can be used to work smarter not harder. Let’s start with strategy. How do you plan your day? You get to choose. If you don’t plan healthy choices then unhealthy ones are easily made in the moment of need. Plan your meals (four to six small meals keep energy consistent). Pack your food in a cooler and have it with you throughout the day (temptation evaded). Schedule your exercise and keep that appointment (no excuses). Set aside time
for quietness or rest each day (60 minutes per day minimum, broken up or combined). Monitor your environment for negativity and make important choices to keep it to a minimum (deliberately implement positive and encouraging contributions). Solicit support from family, friends, or a personal trainer for accountability. Also, a workout partner makes it more fun. Let’s benefit from our great gift of science. Eating small meals throughout the day boosts metabolism. Combining lean protein, low-glycemic carbohydrates, and healthy fat at each meal keeps insulin under control and controls weight gain. Strength training with weights can build muscle, and the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn during the day. Lower intensity exercise for a longer duration (45-plus minutes per session at 60-70 percent of your target heart rate) burns more fat than higher intensity exercise. Drinking ice water lowers your body’s core temperature so your metabolism is boosted to bring your temperature back to normal. Sleep is restorative to the body, and getting enough sleep fights fatigue. Science has also proven that happiness increases our productivity. Examples include, be thankful, forgive and be kind to yourself and others, find something that makes you laugh every day, etc. In this quest for optimal health — attitude is everything. You are powerful in your choices to govern your health and fitness — believe it. Let’s do this. — Rebecca Diehl is a certified personal trainer. She instructs clients at Westcoast Fitness in Port Orchard and is also available to train clients in their homes in South Kitsap. Email her at rebjdiehl@gmail.com.

New year begins with Lyric hearing care
By MEGAN NIGHTINGALE Contributor
A
new year has begun and with it an exciting adventure for those of us at Peninsula Hearing. We are now offering a new and different concept in hearing care called the Lyric. Lyric has been around for a few years, however Peninsula Hearing in Poulsbo is the first hearing professional on the peninsula to offer Lyric. The Lyric concept is one similar to extended wear contact lenses for the eye. Lyric is still the only “extended wear” hearing device available. The concept centers on a very small device (about the size of a pinto bean) that is placed deep in the ear canal within about 4 millimeters of the ear drum. The device stays put in the canal until the battery dies which can be up to four months. The device
is then taken out of the ear canal by a trained professional and a new one placed back in the canal. The device is designed to be worn 24 hours a day, seven days a week. While the thought of a traditional hearing aid being worn 24/7 is not very pleasant, Lyric when properly placed in the ear canal can hardly be felt. The mechanics of the Lyric is surrounded by a spongy material that allows moisture to escape and the ear canal to breathe which is very important for ear canal health. The advantage of having a hearing device placed so close to the ear drum is that the sound is very natural because not as much amplification is needed as with a traditional device. Also, by virtue of the placement of Lyric the brain can take advantage of the ear’s natural background noise fighting capabilities. Lyric is very convenient
Megan Nightingale, AuD, doctor of audiology. for the user as well. One does not have to change batteries or take the device on and off the ear. The
device can be adjusted for volume and turned into what is called “sleep mode” for nighttime use by using
a magnet tool. Lyric is sold on a subscription basis for one, two or three years at a time.
The makers of Lyric do state that Lyric is clearly not for everyone. There are some people who cannot have anything in their ear canal and some whose hearing issues are so great that it is beyond the amplification ability of the device. “For the people who have tried it and liked it however, it is a miracle; they rave about it,” said Nightingale. — If you are interested in learning more about this new concept in hearing care, see Peninsula Hearing’s advertisement in this section for a free lunch and learning session on Feb. 11, 2 p.m. in the Poulsbo Library downstairs meeting room. Peninsula Hearing is located at 19319 Seventh Ave. NE , Suite 102, in Poulsbo. Call 360 697-3061 for more information or to schedule a hearing examination.

According to Schoettler, a main goal of the Lions Clubs internationally is sight conservation. “There are a number of ways that we are working on that,” he said. “We pick up used eye glasses and send them to a processing place in Lacey where they are cleaned and the prescription is read and classified. Those glasses are then sent to people in Third World countries through missionary workers.” Here in the U.S., Lions Clubs such as Poulsbo, work to offer vision screenings, especially to pre-school children, so that any vision problems can be caught
and corrected before children enter school. “We want to catch anything that is wrong so that it can be dealt with before they begin school,” he said. “So that it is not a hinderance to them as they study. We don’t want any child to get behind in school just because they need glasses.” Once a child is screened and a determination is made as to what the child needs, the Lions then can help with the cost of further vision care by a professional and glasses if needed. “Sometimes these kids come from families that can’t afford glasses,” he said. “We can help with that, too.” The Poulsbo Lions Club has two Welch Allyn SureSight screening machines which are used to determine common problems such as far sightedness, near sightedness, astigmatism and amblyopia or what’s commonly know as lazy eye. There are six Poulsbo Lions who are trained to use the machines at the clinics to determine sight problems. Additionally, the club goes out to community fairs and kids’ days to do screenings. The machines they use each cost $7,000 and the Lions fundraised to purchase them and to help with eye care health throughout the year. Events

include their annual dinner and auction. “Everything we raise goes back into the community,” he said. Schoettler has been a Lion for more than 25 years. He’s been the committee chairman for the screening project for a couple of years. A retired Poulsbo grocer, his dedication to good sight is genuine. “It was way back in 1927 when Helen Keller challenged all Lions Clubs to become the ‘Knights of the blind,’” he said. “We’ve been
doing this work ever since.” He said any person of any age can be screened, even those as young as infants. “When you are very young, your eyes are changing all the time,” he said. “It’s hard to pinpoint how bad the situation is. But catching anything early is the best thing.” Schoettler said the Poulsbo Lions are also working with Peninsula Hearing to begin hearing screenings that will work similar to the sight screenings. Eye doctors suggest an annual
eye exam because vision changes continually and finding issues early is important. Other local Lions Clubs that provide vision checks are: n Bremerton Central Lions (www.bremertoncentralwa.lionwap.org) n Silverdale Sunrise Lions (www.e-clubhouse.org/sites/ silverdalesunrisewa) n Silverdale Dandy Lions (www.silverdaledandywa.lionwap. org) n Port Orchard Lions (www. portorchardwa.lionwap.org).

Acupuncture is an opportunity for pain control
By KIPP ROBERTSON
krobertson@soundpublishing.com
M
any Americans are in denial about their
health. That’s according to Robert Doane, owner of the Acupuncture & Wellness Center in Poulsbo, who helps treat hundreds of patients per week. His practice steers away from pharmaceuticals, which Doane said just mask health issues. “We’ve dropped to 50th in the world in terms of health,” Doane said. There are more health care visits per capita in the United States than most places in the world, he said. The business Doane opened in 1998 is attempting to find the source of people’s pain, not cover it up. The Acupuncture & Wellness Center has more than 13,000 patients, according to Doane. He says the clinic is the largest single-owner Chinese medicine practice in the country. The practice focuses on distal point needle acupuncture and pulse diagnosis. “It’s not the only
method,” Doane said. “But you can look your patient in the eye and say ‘I can treat you.’” The clinic also offers non-needle alternatives and herbal medicine. The practice has patients with health issues such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems, inflammatory disease, allergies, anxiety and depression. Chinese medicine is “very good” at treating problems, Doane said. The clinic can help patients live an overall healthier lifestyle. The drawback to Chinese medicine is its weakness in treating trauma, he said. The human body’s pulse is used to determine what potential health issues exist for a patient at Acupuncture & Wellness. Issues with sinuses, the neck or back, for example, can be determined with the pulse, Doane said. Instead of treating symptoms, Doane and his staff treat what they consider to be the number one cause of health issues — bad blood circulation. “As we get older, the flow of nutrients, blood

He said poor circulation can cause pain to remain in the body, even after an injury has healed. “(The body) can’t repair itself.” Doane said a common misconception is that being physically fit means someone is healthy. He said that is not the case. For example, athletes involved in
long-distance sports, such as distance running, have damaged hearts — with a heart pumping 15 quarts of blood per minute. “Chinese medicine is unique because we’re not chasing symptoms,” he added. Doane travels the world to educate medical practitioners about the benefits of Chinese medicine. He has a website, www.doane. us, with tutorials accessed
through subscription. Andrea, a Gig Harbor resident who asked to be identified by first name only, visits the clinic for stress and trouble sleeping. She said what the clinic does for her makes it worth the trip. A bonus is there are no side effects to the treatment, she said. The Poulsbo clinic also is a go-to for those looking for a residency program. Kyleen Lee, who joined
the program about three years ago, was drawn to the volume of patients the clinic sees. “It was a chance to treat 30 to 40 patients a day,” she said. “At a typical Chinese medicine clinic you’re treating 30-40 (patients) a week.” Lee went through a three-day interview process, which required her to be on her feet from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. She helped treat more than 50 patients during her interview. “It’s a rush,” she said. A visit to the Acupuncture & Wellness Center costs $150 without insurance. Co-pay methods are available with insurance. The clinic does herbal consultation, massage, nutritional counseling and weight loss. Doane has a bachelor’s degree in physics from the University of Washington, a master’s degree in Vedic philosophy from Meru University in Switzerland, and a master’s degree in Chinese Medicine from Santa Barbara College. He is a fellow of the American Academy of Pain Management.

o you feel like you are on a roller coaster of losing and gaining those same unwanted pounds over and over? If so, you are not alone. Most people in your situation have lost count of how many diets, pills, shakes and gadgets they have tried in hopes of finally losing weight for good. It’s time to stop searching for a magic cure and learn what it really takes to lose pounds and keep them off. These six steps offer a no-nonsense approach to losing the weight for good: 1. Understand weight loss. There is no other way around it — in order to lose weight, you need to burn more calories than you consume. One pound of body fat equals 3,500 calories. If you want to lose 1 pound per week you need to average a caloric deficit of 500 calories per day.
ing your caloric intake and increasing your physical activity. For example, to create a 500-calorie deficit per day, cut back 250 calories from your diet and burn 250 calories doing a physical activity that you enjoy. 4. Find ways to cut back on calories. Some suggesIdeally, this is done by increasing physical activity and making some cutbacks in your diet. Realize that the weight will come off more quickly at first, but then slow down. 2. Calculate your daily caloric requirement. The amount of calories that you need in a day depends on your basal metabolic rate (BMR). This is the amount of calories your body uses at rest. BMR accounts for roughly 60 to 75 percent of
all the calories you burn in a given day. Calculate your BMR and daily caloric needs: Set a realistic weight loss goal. A goal of losing no more than 1 to 2 pounds per week is realistic and attainable. Larger, quicker weight loss will most likely be regained. 3. Determine your strategy. No matter what your weight loss goal is, the best approach is to create a caloric deficit by decreas-
tions include: Decrease portion sizes. Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day. Don’t skip breakfast. Don’t drink your calories (i.e. soda, juice, alcohol, coffee with cream). Substitute healthy fats for unhealthy saturated and trans fats. Load up on fruits, veggies, low-fat dairy, lean meats and good carbs. Be consistent throughout the week instead of dieting more strictly on
certain days of the week. 5. Burn more calories by getting active. Aim for 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week. Adding strength training will also elevate your basal metabolic rate, so that you burn more calories even when you are resting. Check with your health care provider if you are not sure if you are healthy enough to begin exercising. — Contact Mary Mollahan at mmollahan@ soundpublishing.com

Therapist says ‘It isn’t ‘woo-woo,’ it works’
Hypnotherapy can help people overcome life’s obstacles By RICHARD WALKER
rwalker@soundpublishing.com
I
f you’ve ever doubted the effectiveness of hypnotism, consider this: No. 1: According to the American Psychological Association, hypnotism “has proven effective in interventional radiology, various surgical procedures, the treatment of burns, child-birth labor pain, bone marrow aspiration pain, and pain related to dental work, especially so with children. “Chronic pain conditions for which hypnosis has been used successfully include, among others, headache, backache, fibromyalgia, carcinoma-related pain, temporal mandibular disorder pain, and mixed chronic pain. Hypnosis can alleviate the sensory and/ or affective components of a pain experience, which may be all that is required for acute pain.” No. 2: Many athletes have long employed a form of self-hypnosis — “mental imagery,” or visualization — to become more competitive and improve their performance. Citing a report in Psychology Today and a study in the Journal of Sports &
Richard Walker photo
Kayla Wentworth, who practices hypnotherapy in Poulsbo, says it’s empowering. Exercise Psychology, Carolyn Gregoire wrote in Huffington Post, “Research on the brain patterns of weightlifters found that the patterns activated when a weightlifter lifted heavy weights were activated similarly when they simply imagined lifting.” The study found that “imagining weight lifting caused actual changes in muscle activity.” So, why not you? Trying to lose weight? Quit smoking? Up your game? Hypnotherapy can help. “There’s nothing mystical about it. It isn’t ‘woo-woo,’ ” said Kayla Wentworth, a certified clinical hypnotherapist in Poulsbo.
After all, we are subjected to the power of suggestion every day, she said; that’s what advertising and marketing are all about, getting a message to stick in your head. In fact, the brain is constantly taking in information that influences our decision-making, our opinions, even how we view ourselves. Hypnosis can override that. “Hypnosis is simply a state of being relaxed,” she said, adding that the word “hypnosis” is a Greek word meaning “sleep.” “When you’re in a state of deep relaxation, that’s hypnosis. The chatter goes away and the brain is open to suggestion. It’s like putting new information into a
computer.” For someone trying to lose weight, that new information may be to have a drink of water instead of eating when you think you’re hungry. For someone trying to kick the smoking habit, the new information may be that a cigarette tastes bad. Your brain begins to think that the cigarette tastes bad, and so it does. For someone trying to achieve a goal, that new information may be visualization of achieving the goal — whether it’s overcoming anxiety, depression, fear, insomnia or low self-esteem. “The brain starts to say, we’re going to make this happen,” Wentworth said.
Ways you can create less stress By LESLI DULLUM-TUTTERROW Contributor
I
f you have breath and a pulse, you have some stress. The trick is not shooting for a stress-free life, but rather learning how to recognize your signs and symptoms of stress, specifically “distress” and then learn how to effectively manage them. Stress is an inescapable part of life. In fact, some stress is good for us. Eustress is the name given to the type of stress that reminds us we are alive. It is the short term type of stress we experience from stretching out of our comfort zone, like jumping out of an airplane, for example. The kind of stress that more often gets our attention is the distress that produces physical symptoms such as headache,
stomach issues, muscle tension and ultimately contributes to physical, mental and emotional disease and dysfunction. This is especially problematic when stress occurs over time as when you are struggling with marital problems or work issues that are not getting resolved. So, if stress is going to be with us, and we can’t fully “get rid of it” then what can we do? The answer is plenty. First, spend some time identifying what people, places, situations and events serve as stress triggers for you. Keep in mind a stress trigger is anything that elicits a physical, emotional and mental stress response. That may play out in anything from tight muscles, short rapid breathing, or rapid heart pounding to
name a few physiological signs. Emotional and mental clues may be irritability, memory loss, brain fog and fatigue. Chronic distress is nothing to ignore. So the best “defense” is a good offense. After you identify your stress triggers, create a Stress Management Plan (SMP), so that you are no longer a passive bystander to the onslaught of stressors that plague you. Remember, your health and wellbeing are at stake. Here is the foundation for an effective SMP: First, make a list of activities that you can do (or have done) that serve to rejuvenate or reenergize you. You might choose things like, have quiet time, a cup of tea, knit, or hit a baseball
Here’s something else you might not know: Hypnosis works, but only if you’re open to it. A hypnotherapist “cannot make someone do anything that goes against their will,” Wentworth said. (That goes for those hypnosis shows you might see in Vegas or on TV. They’re real, she said.) “Everyone is hypnotizable. The point is, you want to make the change.” People who seek hypnotherapy before or after medical-related procedures are particularly open to it. Hypnotherapy has proven effective for people who are allergic to anesthesia. And, according to the American Psychological Association, a 2002 study that compared intravenous conscious sedation with hypnotic sedation during radiology treatment found that the cost of hypnotic sedation was half as expensive as the standard sedation procedure. Wentworth attended California State University, East Bay, and is a certified clinical hypnotherapist. She worked at School for the Deaf in Fremont, California, for 25 years, and moved 10 years ago to Poulsbo where she specializes in cancer support hypnotherapy. Her office is at Liberty Bay Marina, but she is in the process of moving her office to Bainbridge Island. Rates vary, depending on number of sessions,
or a golf ball. The only criteria is that it is an activity that feels stress-relieving for you. Take your list, and divide it into activities that take less than five minutes, and activities that take longer than five minutes. I call this “Over 5/Under 5.” From here, plug in three “Under 5” activities into your daily schedule. Remember each one takes less than five minutes. For example, you can choose deep breathing which you can do sitting at your desk, or at the end of your lunch break. Other ideas for under fives are smelling essential oils, doing a few stretches, or calling a friend. Now, choose one to two activities per week that take longer than five minutes and add those in your schedule. Your “Over 5s” may include things such as get a massage, or a yoga class. Ideally, you’ll want to work your way up to three or more “Over 5s” per week.
but generally the first session is $185 for up to three hours. Subsequent sessions, $85; a session can last up to an hour and a half. She also teaches a sixweek hypnobirthing class. “Some of the topics we cover are releasing emotional fears, releasing limiting thoughts, birth preferences, birth plan, relaxation scripts, bonding exercises and much more,” she said. “My goal is to educate parents to understand that giving birth is not something to be feared. I teach them a relaxing, stress-free method of birthing based on the belief that babies should come into the world in an atmosphere of peace, joy and calmness. We also learn nutrition, relaxation, and self-hypnosis so the mother can experience the joy of birthing her baby in a comfortable, and often, pain-free manner.” She offers classes in selfhypnosis, as well. For those who feel they have not discovered their full potential, or who have lost their confidence, or who have attempted and failed at a goal, self-hypnosis can be liberating. “It’s about empowerment — and being able to move on,” Wentworth said. For more contact Wentworth at 360-621-8108, or go to HypnotherapyFor YourHealth.com.
The key is to identify the right activities or things that work for you, and then to schedule them. Treat each “Over5/Under5” activity as if it were an important meeting with your boss to help you follow through. One of the greatest things you can do for your health and wellbeing is to effectively manage your stress. When you create your own SMP, you will be well on your way to stressing less and enjoying life more. Don’t wait. Make your list of stress-reducing activities today. Then introduce one or two of your “Under 5s” into your day, and watch your stress melt away. — Lesli Dullum-Tutterrow is a certified counselor, health and wellness coach and consultant, licensed massage practitioner, and president of Optimal Wellness in Silverdale.

Peninsula mom finds relief with virtual urgent care An online visit is appropriate for many issues, medical professionals say
H
ave you ever gotten sick at a really inconvenient time? Well, that’s exactly what happened to Kristen Tayet, a Peninsula resident who had a great experience with Franciscan Virtual Urgent Care — a new way to access medical care 24/7 from the comfort of home. Tayet was home on a Friday caring for her two young children. Her husband was out of town. Then, she started to feel under the weather. “I had — how can I say this delicately? — a stomach bug,” she said. “By
Sunday it had gotten much worse. I started worrying I was losing nutrients and might become too weak to care for my kids.” Tayet started making plans to visit her local urgent-care clinic, but remembered an advertisement she had seen for Franciscan Virtual Urgent Care. “I really couldn’t imagine getting dressed, getting the kids dressed and going out,” she said. “At $35 for the virtual visit, I figured, ‘What have I got to lose?’” Tayet visited FranciscanCareNow.org, answered a few simple questions and a nurse practitioner called her back within a half an hour. “I described my symptoms and got some information about self-care that ended up being very helpful,” Tayet said. “I also didn’t feel like I was in a public space where I might
be refunded at the provider’s discretion. A virtual visit is appropriate for many issues, including the assessment of cuts, burns and strains/sprains; treating urinary tract, sinus or yeast infections; and consulting on fevers, headaches, pink eye, rashes and sore throats. “Virtual Urgent Care is really great for patients who are busy, who feel like they can’t leave the house, or who don’t live within easy reach of medical care,” Diamond added. “It’s helping us provide top Kristen Tayet used the Franciscan Virtual Urgent Care to help online when she became sick quality and timely service to patients in our commurecently because she didn’t want to leave home while feeling ill.

Harrison Bainbridge: ‘A new way of delivering care’ By BRIAN KELLY
bkelly@soundpublishing.com
F
or its new center on Bainbridge, Harrison Medical Center has done away with one of the most disheartening aspects of a visit to the doctor’s: the waiting room. Harrison Medical Center opened its new two-story, 17,800-square-foot medical building on Bainbridge last month. The $11 million facility offers around-theclock urgent care, plus primary care, specialty care, expanded imaging and lab services and other outpatient services. Mei-lin Gonzales of Harrison’s Bainbridge facility said the new location has been a long time coming. Gonzales, who grew up on Bainbridge, said Harrison has been thinking about an expansion to the island for a decade or so. “We’ve needed access to health care for a long, long time,” she said. The Bainbridge facility will have a 24/7 staff that totals approximately 50 employees, and Harrison expects to see roughly 10,000 urgent care patients and 5,000 primary care visitors in its first year. “That’s our projection based on the other
(Harrison) locations and the community,” Gonzales said. The projection was made based on the nonprofit medical center’s other locations; Poulsbo, Silverdale, Bremerton, Port Orchard, Belfair and Forks. From outside in, the Harrison Bainbridge boasts the latest in construction and design. Built by Tim Ryan Construction, it was designed by Coates Design Architects. “This is such an important project and contribution to the community, so I’m super excited to be involved with it,” architect Matthew Coates said. He said the location, at 8804 Madison Ave. North, was a great choice not only for its visibility next to Highway 305, but its location near the Bainbridge Island Fire Department’s Station 21, which is used for medivac flights. “Harrison was looking for a site, and this one is just so perfect because it’s very strategically located, with its adjacency to the helipad and access to the highway,” Coates said. The outside of the building mimics its fir-tree setting, with vertical wood planks of varying depths and widths. “When I first came to the
Architect Matthew Coates at Harrison Bainbridge. Brian Kelly photo site and I saw all of these beautiful trees in the background, I sort of wanted the building to echo that in the background,” he said. Wood elements highlight the exterior of the building, and the Accoya timber, a brand that is sustainably grown and harvested, is unique and more often found in European construction projects. “It’s actually a different type of preserved wood. Most pressure-treated wood, for example, uses heavy metals. So it’s really toxic. It’s actually not very healthy for people or the environment,” Coates said. Accoya wood is pressure treated in a process that Coates likened to pickling.
“Because of the way it’s preserved, it will last a long time with low maintenance,” he noted. New concepts continue on the inside of Harrison Bainbridge. Gone is the usual expansive waiting room. Instead, think “pause” and “pods.” After a quick stop at the front reception area, visitors will make their way further into the building to a “pause” area that will be right outside their room. “So whether you’re here for urgent care, or clinic, or lab or imaging, you check in right here,” Gonzales said of the front reception area. “And as soon as you’re checked in — which is a fairly quick process —
they will take you or send you to a specific pause area. “It’s a new way of delivering healthcare where patients and visitors.” Coates said the idea is to create a calming, peaceful environment. Materials that are reminiscent of nature and of natural materials were incorporated into the construction. “Usually when people are coming here, they are not feeling well, for one reason or another,” Coates said, adding that the entryway and pause areas will ease the transition into the rest of a visitor’s medical care. “It’s intended to be a comforting experience.” As a patient moves back to be seen for urgent care, for example, they approach the urgent care “pod,” where medical providers share a large central hub area filled with computers and equipment that is surrounded by exam rooms for patients. Patients enter through the pause areas, then into their exam room, while practitioners access the patient’s room through the central core area, the hub. “What we would traditionally call a waiting area is a pause area, and they call it that because their care started back there,
where they registered and checked in, and then they are going to pause for a short amount of time here before being roomed,” Gonzales explained. “Each (patient) room is connected to the hub, and all of the care providers are working from within the hub,” she said. “It increases the level of care and supports a team approach.” Urgent care will handle everything from broken bones to coughs and colds, while specialty physicians at Harrison Bainbridge will offer services ranging from cardiology to gastroenterology, orthopedics, general surgery and urology. Specialty care is available on the second floor. There are a total of 13 clinic rooms; six for specialty care and seven for primary care. Coates said he was pleased with the project and the partnership between Harrison, which is affiliated with CHI Franciscan Health, the construction team and the designers. “My passion is really doing projects that benefit the community. And this is clearly another one that really is going to help the community and I think really raise the quality of life here,” he said.

Boaters sail to Poulsbo for weekend party
The Boat Guy hosts another nautical party in Poulsbo
WINTER RENDEZVOUS Feb. 6-8. All events take place downtown Poulsbo
BY RICHARD D. OXLEY Kitsap Week
I
n a historically ironic twist, people from far and wide will sail to the shores of Poulsbo — a Norwegian community — and raid the town of its glögg, herring and more. The Winter Rendezvous — spearheaded by hydroplane racer Chip Hanauer — will take over downtown Poulsbo Feb. 6-8 for its second year in a row. The rendezvous encourages recreational boaters to sail the Puget Sound’s winter waters, when boats usually are more absent, and converge on one location for a weekend party. “Winter Rendezvous is a party in February,” said Tammy Mattson, owner of the Hare and Hound Pub and a co-organizer of the event. “Chip Hanauer brings all of his friends to town and we throw a party for everybody.” Last year’s rendezvous, the first, was a success. Hundreds of boaters — and non-boaters — merged in Poulsbo, toured
Glögg fest: At seven locations throughout downtown (different locations than the poker run) with free glögg, Feb. 7, 2-4 p.m. Vote on your favorite glögg. Pickled herring expo: At the Marina Market, Feb. 7 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. A tour through the wide world of pickled herring. Poker run: At seven locations throughout downtown on Feb. 7 (different locations than the poker run). Whiskey tasting: At Hare and Hounds, Feb. 6 at 7 p.m. $35. For ages 21 and older. Libation station: At the Sons of Norway, Feb. 7, beginning at noon. $20 in advance, $23 at the door. Price includes 10 tastings and souvenir glass. A beer, wine and spirits festival with 19 local breweries, wineries, cider houses and distilleries. Including live music and reentry privileges. For ages 21 and older. Tickets online at www.poulsbochamber.com. Live Music: Feb. 7, 7 p.m. at the Sons of Norway. After the festival’s various awards are announced, Soul Siren will perform modern hits and blues/R&B to dance into the night. the town and took in some art, local brews, music, and morel, and enjoyed some nautical camaraderie. The second Winter Rendezvous in Poulsbo is a new and improved version. All the same communal boating spirit is included. And as with last year’s event, there will be a glögg fest, a poker run and a pickled herring expo. And it is all hosted by Chip Hanauer of hydroplane fame, today known as “The Boat Guy.” The poker run works by visiting different locations throughout downtown, and picking up a playing card. Once enough cards are collected, participants can turn them into the poker station at the Sons of Norway. The best, and worst, hands will win a

prize. The glögg fest operates similarly. Different downtown locations will put forth their best glögg. Participants vote on their most favored tastes. A voter will win a prize at the end. And what would an event in a Norwegian town be without a pickled
herring expo? The Marina Market will host a herring tasting, boasting an array of pickled varieties. This year’s event also has a few added attractions. “There are events that are not specific to boaters, so everyone can come,” Mattson said. “There are boater specials like moor-
age specials, but this is for everybody.” The rendezvous is timed to coincide with the monthly art walk downtown on Saturday; an evening when Front Street’s many galleries stay open late and offer refreshments and entertainment. Hare and Hound is hosting a whiskey tasting for lovers of the juice of the barley. Then there is the Libation Station; a festival of beer, wine and spirits. And if the second rendezvous is anything like the inaugural, a horde of
Vikings are likely to show up, as are a bevy of shenanigans, and horned helmets will be the fashion of the day. Moorage can be found at the Port of Poulsbo’s marina, though, slips fill up fast. The port is offering a two-for-one deal; buy one night, get the second free. That deal can be purchased on www.brownpapertickets.com. “There’s nothing else going on in February, at least nothing else that’s so fun. So come down,” Mattson said.

BAinBRiDgE iSLAnD REViEW Island seeks central park: Bainbridge Island voters will be asked during the Feb. 10 special election to approve a 20-year bond sale that would pay for the purchase of the Sakai property, 22.87 acres of largely undeveloped land that sits between Madison Avenue and Highway 305. “It’s all about creating a central recreational open space that’s in the middle of Winslow,” said Bruce Weiland, co-chairman of People for Parks, the pro-park campaign. “It’s the island’s heart and center.” Weiland said although the Bainbridge parks district has parks across the island, there isn’t much in the Winslow area itself, where most of Bainbridge’s population calls home. If the ballot measure is approved by voters, the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park & Recreation District will issue $5.9 million in bonds to pay for the Sakai property. The measure must get 60 percent approval from voters, and the turnout must be 40 percent of the 2014 General Election or more (which means at least 4,734 voters must cast ballots for the election to be validated) to pass. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTOn PATRiOT Bonsai enthusiasts meet in Bremerton: Mark Stephens, 56, sits before
a juniper bonsai tree, or “shimpaku.” It’s jagged and unkempt, the result of a season spent shaded by a wisteria plant. He runs his fingers along the branches, feeling for dieback, clipping away the dead branches. Stephens is a member of the Evergreen Bonsai Club. They met Jan. 16 at Crossroads Neighborhood Church in Bremerton. About 25 members showed up to hear a lecture about repotting bonsai trees by John Conn, a local expert. Everyone is sitting side by side listening to Conn. Everyone except for Stephens, who’s in the back dabbling. Make no mistake, Stephens is listening. He laughs the loudest and makes the most comments. Stephens first became interested in bonsai as a kid after seeing an ad in the back of a comic book. He compares bonsai to a cartoon from the comic strip “For Better or Worse.” “In one of the cartoon strips he went into a hobby shop and told the guy ‘I want a new hobby, I thought I’d get into trains’ and the guy said ‘My dear sir, model trains aren’t a hobby, they’re a way of life,’” Stephens said. “And that’s what I look like with bonsai too.” Using a tool called an angle cutter, Stephens cuts away the base of a large branch. Later, he’ll peel away the surrounding bark. The idea is to make the branch appear dead, similar to a wild bonsai. The effect is called a “jin.” Adapting to the tree’s growth and changes in
weather make bonsai an intricate and never-ending combination of art and horticulture. “The only finished bonsai is a dead bonsai,” Conn said. “They’re always growing, they’re always changing. You’re always re-sculpting them, you’re always reworking them.” Merrill Evans, 73, of Bremerton, has a juniper that hints at what’s capable in bonsai. Aluminum wire spirals around thin branches, curving them down and then up with patches of green raised toward the sun. He’s grown his tree around a piece of driftwood, giving it a half-dead appearance. It’s called a Phoenix graft. If done right, it’ll be hard to tell where the living tree begins and the deadwood ends. His tree pulls this off, as one new member was surprised to learn his tree was both living and dead. “Some trees you put that wire on and it cuts in in six months,” Evans said. Stephens admires Evans’ tree. “You can see there’s wire here on this branch but they’ll wire all the way into these fans here and wire the fans of the juniper out here,” Stephens said. “The master’s will tell you, that’s what they want to see.” The Evergreen Bonsai Club meets again Feb. 20 at 7:30 p.m. at Crossroads Neighborhood Church 7555 Old Military Road NE in Bremerton where there will be a bonsai garage sale. For more information call 360626-1264. — BremertonPatriot.com
CEnTRAL KiTSAP REPORTER McKay pleads guilty: The driver of a car that crashed Jan. 11 on Seabeck-Holly Road NW, killing three teenage passengers, pleaded guilty on Jan. 22 to three counts of vehicular homicide. Marcus Allen McKay, 17, of Bremerton, will remain in the juvenile court system and will not be charged as an adult. McKay gave a statement to law enforcement admitting he had been traveling 75 mph in a 45 mph zone. Roadway evidence and damage to the vehicle also suggested a high-speed collision occurred. McKay also admitted that he smoked marijuana around 2 a.m. that morning at a party. The documents state that on Jan. 11 around 3:16 a.m. McKay lost control of the See AROUNDKITSAP, Page 19

They complied and carried the coffin to the median where they were detained. All received citations for being in the roadway illegally, and then released.

Farley, 14, and Luther James Wiggins-Stoudermire, 18, died in the crash. At the time of the crash, McKay had an intermediate driver’s license which required that he have no passengers under the age of 20, nor drive between the hours of 1-5 a.m. The defense and prosecution agreed to a total of 45108 weeks of incarceration at the Juvenile Justice and Rehabilitation Administration, payment of restitution to each of the victim’s families, and $200 in fees.

More than 60 people participated in the center’s annual celebration of Martin Luther King Jr’s life and legacy with a vigil outside the main gate at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor. Under the theme “Building
the World House,” the day focused on King’s commitment to nonviolence and his opposition to war and nuclear weapons. Some participants, dressed in monk’s robes, carried a coffin containing a globe representing Earth. People walked up to the
casket and placed flowers on it, and then another robed participant recited a eulogy, “Mourning the Death of the Earth after Nuclear Annihilation.” A funeral dirge completed the ceremony. When the ceremony was finished, participants carried the casket onto the roadway,
Tommy C’s is moving: Tommy C’s Sports Bar & Grill owner Tommy Cash said Jan. 19 that his establishment, as well as Sk8Town and another tenant at 1501 Piperberry Way, were told they must vacate the premise by Feb. 28. Cash said that date reflects the latest timeline the building’s owner, First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, provided in a letter. He said he first learned First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, which is based in Raleigh, N.C., wanted tenants to vacate the building in a Dec. 23 letter. “They drew a line in the sand and told everyone to

vacate the property,” Cash said. “I think they’ve made up their mind.” Cash and Mark Baker, who owns Sk8Town, were surprised by the development. Cash’s predicament began when he said he was notified May 30 that the previous owner, P&H Properties, had not paid the mortgage on the building for eight months. Cash said he and his wife, Esther, paid rent on time each month since they opened in the 5,350-square foot space in early 2011. Baker said he had a strong relationship with P&H Properties, which he said kept his rent affordable to make Sk8Town fiscally viable. That is part of the reason why Baker, unlike Cash, does not plan to relocate his business. Helen Kestle, owner of Fab U Look Hair Salon and Skin Care, said she also received a letter in December from First Citizens Bank & Trust Company. Cash said his attempts to renegotiate his lease were rebuffed. Cash would prefer to remain in South Kitsap, but also will examine potential locations in Bremerton, Gig Harbor and Silverdale. — PortOrchardIndependent.com
