Rowing foundation offers water opportunities for youth

BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

It was about nine years ago when Greg Jacobs looked out the window of his home at Dyes Inlet and saw a group of boats sailing closely together on the water. He wondered what they were.

“I found out they were the students from Central Kitsap High learning to sail,” he said.

“And the rest is history.”

Jacobs soon joined the group, the Kitsap Sailing and Rowing Foundation, which had been formed about a year earlier. It’s purpose is to give youth, regardless of their economic or societal position in the community, the opportunity to learn the sports of sailing and rowing.

“It grew out of the Leadership Kitsap group, and was supposed to stretch all over the county,” Jacobs said.

“The group felt there weren’t enough programs for youth to enjoy the water.”

Eventually, programs branched off in other areas of the county and the foundation focused on Central Kitsap. It now offers sailing and rowing to students in grades 7-12 and works with the student who sail competitively for Central Kitsap High, Olympic High, and Klahowya Intermediate schools.

They sail from March to June, and then, in the summer months the foundation has Monday evening sailings and camps for kids who want

to learn to sail.

Another group, Clam Island Rowing, teaches rowing to students, and the Foundations board oversees both. Both are operated through the help of Kitsap County and the Port of Silverdale.

This year, about 35 high school students participated in competitive sailing, forming two separate teams.

From skiing accident to sailing coach Jacobs, who grew up as an “Air Force brat” has lived in several states, but always gravitated toward the water.

He was a competitive swimmer in high school in Arizona and sailed with the University of Washington’s sailing teams.

He bought himself a catamaran and eventually went to work for O’Brien Sales in Redmond, marketing wind-surfing equipment.

At 23, he was snow skiing when he went head first into a stream bed and broke his neck.

That was 1982.

“I got a helicopter ride to Harborview and six months later they gave me a wheelchair and said, ‘Have a nice life.’ ” Jacobs wasn’t much good at sitting around. Soon, he used his contacts in the sailboat and wind surfing business to help him figure out a way he could continue to sail.

“I knew I had to make it happen,” he said.

For the most part, he’s OK once he’s in the boat, he said.

Greg Jacobs, a paraplegic, navigates Dyes Inlet in his catamaran. Jacobs broke his neck over 30 years ago in a skiing accident.

“It’s getting to the boat that’s hard,” Jacobs said. “Wheelchairs don’t really like anything but a concrete sidewalk.”

With the help of a marine railway and a rickshaw to get him to the water’s edge, he’s never stopped sailing.

He encouraged his daughters to sail competitively and the oldest did when she was at Central Kitsap High School.

She started in the seventh grade.

“If you have the experience as a little kid, it gives you the advantage,” said Jacobs.

His other daughter chose soccer.

The older students sail in 15-foot two-person Vanguard boats or the FJs, the Flying Juniors.

“The FJs are more rounded

on the bottom and roll a bit more,” he said. “But that’s the boat most colleges use.”

Younger students use the Opti Dingy, a smaller boat that has a “box blunt” front end, so the loads are lower, Jacobs said.

And, every student must learn safety before they go out on Dyes Inlet.

“We start them out in an indoor pool to practice capsize training,” he said. “Then we get on the water. In early March, when we begin, we can have cold weather, wind and sometimes snow.”

Sailing, he said, it a great activity for families, and something that is affordable for students through the foundation.

The sailing program is self-sustaining. Registration fees cover all costs to meet expenses including administrative fees and maintenance of equipment. Sailing team coaches and sailing instructors volunteer thousands of hours of their time to support the program.

Kitsap County owns all

equipment, manages registration and collects fees.

All participants and volunteers register with the Kitsap County Parks and Recreation Department. The Port of Silverdale allows use of its facilities for storing the boats and accessing Dyes Inlet.

Since 2006, more than 250 youth have learned to sail as a result of the public-private partnership between the foundation, the port and the county. More than 10,000 hours of volunteer time has been dedicated to the summer sailing camps and the high school sailing team program.

Foundation officials say that competitive sailing and rowing requires tactical and strategic thinking and physical ability.

“With each experience on the water, young people gain self-confidence, self-esteem and a sense of camaraderie and accomplishment,” their website states.

Handle fireworks safely on the Fourth of July Area familes and friends will gather on Saturday, July 4, to celebrate the holiday and watch fireworks. Several public fireworks shows will be held, but those who light their own fireworks are advised to be careful not to injure themselves nor start a fire with this summer’s dryer-than-normal weather.

There were 432 fireworks-related injuries and fires reported to the State Fire Marshal’s Office by fire departments and hospitals in 2014.

The majority of these incidents occur on July 4. Males age 36 and older sustained the most injuries.

The incidents of greatest concern include: • 155 fires resulted in $320,240 in damage and property loss. Residential fires resulted in $161,050 in damages – or 50 percent of the total loss.

• 66 injuries were caused by devices

which are illegal to own or possess in Washington State.

• Eight sparkler bomb devices caused six multiple trauma injuries, and also resulted in two fires. These devices are considered improvised explosive devices which are illegal to manufacture and possess. Injuries as a result of one of these devices included metal puncture wounds, burns, tearing of the hands, and trauma to the face, chest and legs.

“Never attempt to make your own fireworks,” said State Fire Marshal Charles M. Duffy.

The office advises those enjoying the fourth to talk with family members about fireworks and safety.

Only responsible adults should light fireworks and be sure to only store fireworks in a secure location, out of reach and sight of curious children. Be sure to have water nearby,

to put pets indoors, and to clean up fireworks debris.

Duffy said that purchasing fireworks over the internet is illegal and that in Washington State, fireworks must be purchased from a licensed retail fireworks stand during the legal sales period. Orders for fireworks cannot be placed over the internet or posted on websites such as Craigslist.

David Lynam, fire marshal for Kitsap County, said “It is important to note that the County has already had multiple brush fires this year, including two two-alarm fires in South Kitsap.”

“Moisture content in downed logs is 11 percent lower than it was at this time last year. We are as dry now as we usually are at the end of July. This might just be the year to enjoy a professional show rather than attempting to create your own,” Lynam said.

Burn ban expanded into western Washington Hot and dry conditions increasing fire danger statewide; 306 wildfire starts throughout state this year so far OLYMPIA—With heat and drought rapidly increasing fire danger in western Washington, the Washington State Department of Natural Resources is expanding its burn ban from DNR-protected lands in eastern Washington to include those west of the Cascades. The statewide burn ban will run from through Sept. 30.

“Westside forests are drying out and the outlook is for continued warm, dry weather,” said Commissioner of Public Lands Peter Goldmark. “These conditions make it clear it’s time for a statewide burn ban.”

The statewide burn ban applies to state forests, state parks and forestlands under DNR fire protection. It does not include federally owned lands such as national forests, national parks, national wildlife refuges or other areas administered by federal agencies.

In 2015 so far, there have been 306 wildfire starts throughout the state. Last year’s fire season was the biggest on record in Washington, with the largest state fire ever, the Carlton Complex, destroying more than 250,000 acres. More than 1 million acres of Washington’s landscape has been consumed by wildfire since 2009.

DNR is awaiting legislative action this summer on requests for $4.5 million for additional firefighting teams and equipment, and $20 million to improve the health of drought-ravaged, flammable forests.

The statewide burn ban applies to all outdoor burning on DNR-protected forestlands with the exception of recreational fires in approved fire pits within designated state, county, municipal and other campgrounds. Charcoal briquettes may be used only in approved campground fire pits.

Fireworks and incendiary devices, such as exploding targets, sky lanterns, or tracer ammunition, are illegal on all DNR-protected forestlands.

If conditions permit, limited controlled burning will be allowed for live-fire training

The authorized firework discharge period is limited to July 4, 11 a.m. – 11 p.m. in the unincorporated areas of Kitsap County, Bainbridge Island, the City of Bremerton, and the City of Port Orchard. Fireworks may not be discharged at any other time of the year.

Certain fireworks, including firecrackers, bottle rockets, missiles and skyrockets are strictly prohibited off of tribal lands. Possessing or setting-off these fireworks off tribal land is illegal and subject to civil and criminal penalties of up to $1,000.

For more information about fireworks safety, public fireworks displays and the fireworks laws for your area, check the “Celebrate Safely” website at http://www.wsp.wa.gov/ fire/fireworks.htm.

Safety tips • Never use fireworks inside your home.

• Put pets indoors.

• Only adults should light fireworks.

• Never consume alcohol or drugs and use fireworks at the same time.

• Obey local laws.

• Always have water nearby.

• Be aware of other people around you.

• Never point or shoot fireworks at another person.

• Do not try to re-ignite a “dud.”

• Only light one at a time.

• Don’t make your own fireworks.

Harrison cardiac team honored BREMERTON – Cardiothoracic surgeons at Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton and St. Joseph Medical Center in Tacoma received three-star ratings from the Society of Thoracic Surgeons for Aortic Valve Replacement. A three-star rating denotes the highest category for quality.

“This quality award recognizes the excellent collaborative work by our full cardiac surgery team led by our cardiac surgeons and comprised of anesthesiologists, perfusionists, critical care nurses, nurse navigators and advanced clinical practitioners,” said Michael Anderson, chief medical officer of Harrison Medical Center.

“Westside forests are drying out and the outlook is for continued warm, dry weather. These conditions make it clear it’s time for a statewide burn ban.”

– Peter Goldmark exercises under the direction of DNR during firefighter training. These burns would take place on June 25 through 27 approximately 17 miles northeast of Ellensburg, in the Naneum Ridge State Forest near Snag Canyon; and June 28 and 29 about three miles north of Oakville in the Capital State Forest.

Officials announce ban on outdoor burning KITSAP—Fire marshals in Kitsap, Mason, Pierce, Snohomish and King county planned to set a phase 1 burn ban beginning 8 a.m. on June 22. The burn ban is being set due to continuing dry weather and above normal fire risk for this time of year.

“Fuel moisture content is about 17 percent – 11 percent less than it should be for this time of year,” said Kitsap County Fire, Marshal David Lynam.

“We are as dry now in the wooded areas as we usually are in late July. The warm dry conditions that are predicted for the rest of the month will dry things out further,” Lynam said.

All burning permits are rescinded throughout unincorporated Kitsap County. Recreational fires that are less than three feet in diameter and at least 25 feet from buildings and combustibles are allowed at this time as well as fires in outdoor fireplaces and campfires in approved locations in campgrounds.

Play it safe, see a fireworks show H

ere are some good reasons to enjoy a professional fireworks show this Fourth of July (and, in some cases, 3rd of July), instead of buying and lighting off fireworks.

One, fireworks were responsible for two deaths, 277 injuries, and more than 150 fires and $320,000 in property loss in Washington in 2014, according to the State Fire Marshal.

Two, 66 of those 277 injuries were caused by devices which are illegal to own or possess in Washington State.

Three, eight sparkler bomb devices caused six multiple-trauma injuries, and also resulted in two fires. These devices are considered “improvised explosive devices,” which are illegal to manufacture and possess. Injuries as a result of one of these devices included metal puncture wounds, burns, tearing of the hands, and trauma to the face, chest and legs.

Four, since warm weather began, conditions are warmer and drier in Kitsap than they were last year. “Moisture content in downed logs is 11 percent lower than it was at this time last year,” according to county Fire Marshal David Lynam. “We are as dry now as we usually are at the end of July.”

Five, there have, as of this writing, already been several brush fires and two, two-alarm fires in South Kitsap since war er weather began.

Heat, dry conditions and fireworks don’t mix. Here’s what we recommend: Sit back, relax and enjoy a professional fireworks show that is sure to “wow” you more than any firecracker, bottle rocket or missile you would buy (which are illegal, by the way).

If you do buy fireworks, remember to follow instructions. Have water nearby. Put pets indoors. Only adults should light fireworks. Clean up fireworks debris. If you buy fireworks on Port Gamble S’Klallam or Suquamish land, those fireworks are legal on S’Klallam or Suquamish land. Again, follow instructions, and ask the vendor for locations of safe places to enjoy your fireworks.

Lindell the Lion: Mascot for everything Ever since he was as young as eighteen-months, Lindell has loved two things: animals and an audience (also, alliteration, coincidentally).

He knows and remembers not just the names of all his stuffed animals, which surely number in the dozens by now, but also their personalities, likes and dislikes. And although he is somewhat introverted and shy, the place he feels the most comfortable is in front of an audience.

This might sound like normal kid behavior, so I should tell you that for many years, Lindell thought he was a dog – like an actual member of the canine species. He carried a tennis ball in his mouth and drank water from a bowl on the floor. When we got a real dog in 2011, Lindell slept on its bed. There was some confusion about whether Sparky was an actual sibling or a pet. “I have hair and hands like my mom,” Lindell would say, “and I am smart like my dad, but I got my sense of humor from my dog.”

All of this naturally led to a fascination with team mascots. My husband is a die-hard San Francisco 49ers and San Diego Padres fan. My other sons are, too. And then there’s Lindell. He chooses teams solely based on their mascot, which is why the St. Louis Cardinals and Philadelphia Eagles are his teams. Lindell has never been

Sarah Smiley to St. Louis or Philadelphia. This can be confusing, especially for strangers who see Lindell wearing his favorite Eagles shirt in Maine.

“Are you from Philly?” a man at a gas station once asked us. “I am, too.”

At first I didn’t understand. Then he pointed at Lindell and said, “Are you an Eagles fan?”

And Lindell said, “No, I’m just a fan of eagles in general.”

Yet it wasn’t until Lindell was 3 years old and wore an oversized Scooby Doo head for Halloween that we first got the idea that he might be headed toward a job as a character at Disney World or, at least, the high school mascot.

That dream almost came true when Lindell’s older brothers played on the Lions for Little League. Before

the beginning of one season, when Lindell was 7, he asked me to find him a lion costume.

“I’m going to be the team mascot,” he said.

The only costume I could find was a size 5/6, but that didn’t matter. Even in high-80s weather, Lindell wore the flannel suit with ties in the back and the wrap-around, thick mane to cheer on the team. As his tail dragged through the dirt and the occasional breeze blew through his lion hair, he looked just like something out of “Where the Wild Things Are.” It never bothered Lindell that he might be too old to wear a too-small lion costume in the middle of June.

Sadly, Lindell announced this year that he was retiring the lion costume, an event for which one of his brothers partially blames the loss of their end-of-season championship. If only they had had Lindell the Lion yelling through the chain link of the dugout.

the legislature embarked on an aggressive program to clean our air and water. They approved a sales tax exemption to offset large private investments in pollution control equipment.

Then after the 1970-71 Boeing layoffs, Evans and the legislature passed legislation allowing a sales tax deferral for manufacturers who modernized their plants and hired or retrained workers.

When Washington started competing head-to-head with Oregon for semiconductor manufacturers, Sen. Al Bauer (D-Vancouver) worried that,

Lindell the Lion.

As his mother, I worried that maybe Lindell’s days of zero inhibition (well, behind a costume, at least) and his unbridled zest for life had finally passed. I mourned the lion costume left in a heap in the closet.

But perhaps it was only left there because it wasn’t authentic enough and certainly too small for his growing body.

Last week, when we took Lindell to a Newport Gulls game in Rhode Island, he saw many things for which he could be impressed—a fantastic red sunset over Cardines stadium, a 5-1 win for the Gulls, an over-thefence home run—but it was the Gulls’ mascots, Gully and Gully Jr., that had Lindell’s rapt attention. Lindell followed those birds everywhere. And when they went into the bull pen, he

waited patiently outside the fence for them to return. He wanted both to sign his baseball. You know, some kids want the pitcher’s or catcher’s signature; Lindell wants the mascot’s.

By the seventh inning, however, Gully and Gully Jr. seemed to be retiring to the bull pen for good. Still, Lindell waited. And then, between the eighth and ninth innings, a swarm of kids got to chase the mascots across the baseball field—and Lindell was trapped with us on the other side of the fence. Talk about mind blown.

Lindell’s jaw dropped and he ran like an actual lion was chasing him to the gate of the bull pen. But he was too late. The chase was over. And soon after, so was the game.

“It’s okay, Buddy,” his brother said.

“Maybe you’ll get their signature next time.”

“And, you know, someday you could be a real mascot,” Dustin said.

(A generous thing for this baseball-loving dad to say to the son he says has a better throwing arm than either of his older brothers did at the same age.)

Lindell stopped walking, turned around and said, “I already am a real mascot.”

“For what,” I asked.

“For everything,” he said.

That’s my boy.

“A company like M3 Biotechnology may not have located in Washington if not for LSDF. It is an innovative young therapeutics company with potentially game-changing drugs designed to treat diseases like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, Multiple Sclerosis and ALS. LSDF provides a financial bridge from the challenging period at a company’s birth to a time when those companies are more attractive to investors.” without a sales tax exemption for new manufacturing machinery and equipment, Washington would lose those plants to Portland. They passed legislation in 1995.

In 1996, the first year of the exemption, an Association of Washington Business survey found that 141 small manufacturers purchased more than $250 million in

new machinery and equipment and SEH-America built a $4.5 billion plant expansion in Vancouver instead of Portland.

Today, with the strong worldwide competition for life sciences research, Gov. Jay Inslee and lawmakers should restore LSDF funds because a tiny shot in the arm could make a world of difference.

Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office

W

hen people hear “Prosecutor’s Office” the words that inevitably come to mind are “crime,” “defendants,” “punishment,” and “jail.” While these are all on point, the role of a prosecutor’s office also includes empathy and compassion.

These are two core values the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office strives to embody as we assist victims of domestic violence through the court process. How does an office historically based on cold, hard justice manage to maintain such idyllic values? Like most, if not all, other prosecutors’ offices throughout the country, we work to achieve those values through partnerships, education and awareness.

Our prosecutors and staff work very closely with the domestic violence advocates at the YWCA of Kitsap County. Through our long developed relationships and partnerships with the YWCA and other community based organizations, we are able to enhance our understanding of the dynamics of domestic violence cases. By enhancing our understanding, we are more equipped to achieve the goal of interrupting the cycle of domestic violence and prevent future incidents.

To do this, we work to empower victims by guiding them through the intricacies of the judicial system and link them with necessary resources from community based organizations. Partnering with qualified advocacy agencies such as the YWCA gives us confidence that victims will receive the long-term support they need to live safe, healthy and productive lives.

Partnerships on a statewide level are important as well.

We support the efforts of the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence and urge you to register today for the Goodwill Refuse to Abuse® 5K at Safeco Field at refusetoabuse5k.org.

Free Bremerton Marina concerts kick off July 4 BREMERTON – The docks will be rocking this summer as the Rock the Dock concert series begins its third year on the Louis Mentor Boardwalk at Bremerton Marina. Organizers have extended the schedule from four weeks to a nine-week-long, eight-concert series and moved the concerts from Fridays to Saturday nights. The line-up of musicians has something for all tastes from folk to country, pop, alternative music and good old rock ‘n roll.

The series kicks off with a bang on Saturday, July 4, with not one, but two bands performing for a special Independence Day celebration, followed by the Sinclair Inlet Fireworks Show. Kitsap County’s own alternative pop band – Boy Blue and the Moon – will start the celebrations at 5 p.m. followed by Left Hand Smoke, who will take the stage at 8-10 p.m. The fireworks begin at 10:30 p.m.

The free concert series is made possible by a partnership of the Port of Bremerton, City of Bremerton and the Downtown Bremerton Association who all worked collaboratively to invest in and grow the series, including a new $15,000 stage recently purchased by the city.

“A concert series of this caliber is something you’d expect to see in cities much larger than Bremerton,” said Michael Goodnow, executive director with the Downtown Bremerton Association. “We have a combination that’s hard to beat: top notch talent, a gorgeous waterfront setting that is the envy of many cities and easy access. The venue is a short walk from the ferry terminal and we have room at the marina for more than 100 boaters. We hope these concerts will become must-do events on everyone’s summer calendar and look forward to welcoming visitors from all over the Peninsula, Seattle and beyond, and showing off our revitalized Bremerton Harbor District.”

The concerts are from 5-7 p.m., except on July 4 when the music will run 5-10 p.m.

Concert schedule: July 4, 5-7 p.m.: Boy Blue and the Moon - Port Orchard’s very own Boy Blue and the Moon will get the crowd ready to celebrate the 4th with their power pop with a punch.

July 4, 8-10 p.m.: Left Hand Smoke - Groovy, guitar and keyboard-driven melodies with a hard hitting, rock and roll edge. Dylan and the Band, the Stones, Van Morrison, Otis Redding, James Brown, the Meters, and Little Feat all contributed to their jazzy, bluesy, folksy, funky sound. According to All Music, “Will Mish is one of the best guitarists ever to emerge from the Northwest.” www.lefthandsmoke. com.

July 11, 5-7 p.m.: Aaron Crawford - One of the most talked about artists coming out of the Seattle music scene. Crawford has built a large following of fans drawn to his blend of country and melodic rock. www.crawfordaaronmusic.com.

July 18, 5-7 p.m.: Bremerton Summer Brewfest (no concert) - The Brewfest features 30 Washington breweries pouring more than 100 craft beers.

July 25 5-7 p.m.: Vaudeville Etiquette - Vaudeville Etiquette makes music that pushes every boundary with raw passion, grit, and mischievous wit. With their signature blend of Americana roots rock, the dynamic Seattle quintet fills timeless melodies with modern lyrics, heady harmonies, and a wailing pedal

Aug. 1, 5-7 p.m.: Ayron Jones & The Way - Seattle guitarist and front man Ayron Jones, has become one of Seattle’s hottest up-and-comers with his brand of Seattle Rock. Sir Mix-a-Lot has called him “the future of rock.” Jones has taken a hybrid style of guitar playing, in which the chord and solo are played at the same time, and infused the raw energy of punk with the inner-city attitude of hip-hop. The band has opened for the legendary B.B. King and Presidents of the United States of America among others. www. ajandtheway.com.

Aug. 8, 5-7 p.m.: Sea of Misinformation - After the release of “Happy Songs For An Unhappy World” five years ago, Ryan Giffin and his songs exploded onto the Northwest music scene by placing within the top four of the Seattle Wave Radio Challenge.

According to International Pop Overthrow Festival, “They’ve got a high energy in-your-face alt-rock attack tempered by pop melodies that will leave you mesmerized and begging for more! Think Judas Priest meets The Beatles meets Death Cab for Cutie hanging out with David Bowie, and you begin to get

the picture … definitely one of Seattle’s finest!”

Aug. 15, 5-7 p.m.: Electric Bards - The Electric Bards play all original music. Many of their songs use the words of 17th, 18th and 19th century poems. The sound is soft rock done in a fresh R&B style. Natalie Poss on vocals and keyboards and John Breslin on lead guitar. Both musicians have been playing around the northwest for many years and call Bremerton home.

Aug. 22, 5-7 p.m.: Chance McKinney - McKinney won Country Music Television’s search for the #1 “unsigned” artist in the nation in 2009, taking home the Music City Madness title with more than one million votes in the final round alone. Since then McKinney has opened for Kenny Chesney and shared stages with Dwight Yoakam, Jamie O’Neal, Grand Funk Railroad, Pat Green, Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan, Creedence Clearwater, .38 Special and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

His “Industrialized Country” is a blend of country music with 90’s Rock, 60’s Motown and heavy metal influences. chancemckinney.com.

Aug. 29, 5-7 p.m.: Kim Archer Band - Known for her raw, powerhouse performances and personable interaction with her audiences, Kim Archer has attracted a large and loyal following of fans in the Pacific Northwest and across the country. Archer’s music follows in the footsteps of great female singer/ songwriters like Joan Armatrading, Melissa Ethridge and Bonnie Raitt. With guitar in hand she commands the stage playing her own original songs rooted in old school soul, funk and classic rock, sultry blues and ballads. www.kimarcherband.com.

PSNS/IMF employee awarded Roy Wilkins Renown Service Award BREMERTON —Annually, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People recognizes Department of Defense personnel for their outstanding accomplishments in human relations, equal opportunity, and civil rights with the Roy Wilkins Renown Service Awards.

This year, PSNS and IMF’s

diversity program manager, Colleen Hamling, received the award on behalf of the U.S. Navy.

Hamling serves as a mentor and leader in fostering inclusion and diversity. Under her leadership, the PSNS and IMF diversity program is recognized as a corporate standard due to the educational opportunities promoting accep-

tance and the celebration of unique perspectives.

“My vision for our diversity program is to work within our culture to strategically work and push boundaries so we evolve into a welcoming, respectful and inclusive environment where we appreciate and value all forms of diversity, different points of view,

ideas and unique abilities,” Hamling said.

Nationally, only eight awards may be presented each year. PSNS and IMF is a premier organization where all can contribute their unique abilities to the success of the mission and this is the first time the Command has received the award.

FIRE CONTINUED FROM A1

firefighting apparatuses — engines, cranes, ambulances — were called to the scene.

The majority were from Bremerton Fire but some came from Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue and South Kitsap Fire and Rescue.

Apartment manager Dan Kroner was among the first the notice the fire. He had been working in a ground floor unit when he stepped outside and saw the fire.

“I was coming outside and I heard popping of the siding and I turned around saw the siding (burning),” Kroner said.

“I grabbed a fire extinguisher and tried to put it out, but it was too much.”

Kroner even went into one of the burning apartments to see if anyone was inside.

“Dan ran into one of the third floor apartments,” said Consuelo Garcia, who lives in the complex. “He’s definitely the hero in this one, besides the firefighters.”

Kroner’s wife, Ramona, pulled the fire alarm and helped notify neighbors.

“I ripped my sandals off ‘cause I couldn’t move fast enough and I just went around barefoot,” she said.

Most displaced residents were able to find a place to stay

SCHOOL BOARD CONTINUED FROM A1

Washington educators have been pushing the state to meet the obligations set forth by the McCleary Decision in 2012.

To date, funding for public education has not met McCleary standards. Public schools are receiving about $1,000 less per student than they’re supposed to.

Bremerton Director Carolynn Perkins said the schools need the money as soon as possible.

“The legislators need to understand how urgent this is and I think if we send this now they may be thinking of pushing it back, pushing it back and they need to hear ‘No, that will not be OK,’” Perkins said.

In a perfect world, Director Scott Rahm would like the district to establish its budget in June, but doesn’t believe that will happen.

“As everybody knows, until (the state establishes a budget), the school districts continue to sit in limbo and try to develop plans without a solid budget ourselves,” Rahm said. “This district should not be in this position to have to go build a budget in August and that’s kind of the direction we’re heading in right now.”

with family or friends, but two took shelter at Peace Lutheran Church, according to Emily LaCroix, client services coordinator with American Red Cross.

LaCroix said the Red Cross is accepting donations for the residents, but they don’t have a list of specific needs yet.

“At this time we don’t have a specific idea of what these people need at this time because they haven’t been able to get into the building at the this time,” LaCroix said.

Donations to residents can be made at www.redcross. org or www.gofundme.com/ xnp5ek, which was created by the Manette Neighborhood Coalition.

The roof of the center of the building had been eaten away by the fire, exposing charred wooden beams.

“This is all wood so it’s going to burn,” said Bremerton Fire Department Chief Al Duke as he watched firefighters do mop-up work.

Duke could estimate where the fire started by studying the fire-blacked marks on the building. A unit in the center had charred roof beams, while exposed beams in a unit directly to the right were not charred.

“See how charred they are on that one?” Duke said of the center unit. That’s where the fire likely started. “They’re not

Although the fire was reported at 3:18 p.m., Duke said it could have been smoldering all day long and only become noticeable later.

One resident, who wished to remain anonymous, was upset with the amount of time

“The legislators need to understand how urgent this is and I think if we send this now they may be thinking of pushing it back, pushing it back and they need to hear ‘No, that will not be OK’” – Carolynn Perkins, school board director Superintendent Aaron Leavell wrote the letter, basing it largely on one written by the Peninsula School District Board of Directors and their superintendent, Chuck Cuzzetto.

From the letter: “The Bremerton School District and its staff collaborate with the community to put children first; “The Washington State Legislature has not fulfilled its obligation to fully fund public education for students in the Bremerton School District, but instead has relied on local levy dollars to pay certificated and classified employee salaries and benefits; “Washington State educators have not been provided a cost of living adjustment for seven years; “The Bremerton School District and its Board of Directors has an open and collaborative relationship with its employee groups and the community at large; “The Bremerton School

it took for firefighters to arrive.

“Some of the residents are dissatisfied about how long it took for the fire department to get here,” she said.

Duke said BFD units had been busy fighting a nearby brush fire and had also been responding to a separate medical aid call at the time the fire

was reported. Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue arrived at the scene first.

Firefighters have to clear residents from buildings before they can begin dousing a fire.

“That’s what takes time is you gotta make sure everybody’s outta there,” Duke said.

There were 12 units the the building. The entire complex houses 88 units.

One CKFR firefighter was taken to the hospital for heat exhaustion.

BETANCOURT

Following CPR, Betancourt called Richardson. He told her, “Something’s wrong with Kaden, he’s not breathing,” documents said.

Richardson arrived several minutes later. Betancourt was “running around the apartment frantically” while Kaden lay unattended, police said.

Once she learned that Betancourt hadn’t called 911, Richardson called Cencom 911, who gave Betancourt proper CPR techniques.

A detective asked Betancourt why he didn’t immediately call 911 upon finding Kaden. Betancourt told him he was afraid police would find drugs in the house.

“I informed Betancourt that preserving little Kaden’s life was far more important that simple illegal drugs,” the detective wrote. “Betancourt seemed taken back by

my statement, as if shocked I cared more (for) a breathless, unresponsive baby than simple narcotics.”

Betancourt admitted to disciplining Kaden for crying that day by flicking him in the head with a finger, according to documents.

Betancourt told police he also used to “knock” Kaden on the head with his knuckles, but stopped when Richardson said she didn’t like the sound.

An autopsy report found brain swelling and over 20 bruises along his scalp, ranging from “dime size to 50-cent pieces, and most of which were circular in shape.”

Betancourt claimed Kaden hadn’t suffered any strikes or falls during the day nor had he harmed Kaden in any way, documents said.

and unresponsive, according to documents.

Betancourt told police he placed Kaden on a bed face down and then began performing CPR by pressing on Kaden’s back for 2-3 minutes.

A detective questioned Betancourt’s technique, stating he’d never heard of it before.

Betancourt said it was how he was taught in the Navy, according to documents.

While in the Navy, Betancourt completed Basic Hospital Corps School and Field Medical Service Technician School. He received exemplary performance evaluations, the documents said.

An autopsy report later found bruising on Kaden’s lungs, possibly from CPR attempts.

Mall seeks teens for anti-bullying program SILVERDALE – With 282,000 students physically attacked in secondary schools each month and up to 43 percent of students having been bullied while online, the issue of bullying is a very real reality for many children.

To help bring awareness to this disturbing trend, Kitsap Mall is partnering with anti-bullying organization STOMP Out Bullying, and iHeartMedia, to find local teens to become teen ambassadors and speak out on this important issue throughout the summer.

This summer, selected Silverdale area teen ambassadors for STOMP Out Bullying will appear at and participate in Kitsap Mall’s STOMP Out Bullying Kick-Off Event on Saturday, Aug. 15, and Block Party on Saturday, Aug. 29. They will speak at the event and interact with iHeartMedia DJs to raise awareness around the issue through social media.

To qualify youth must be 13-24 years of age, have good grades, solid leadership skills, have public speaking experience such as being on the debate team or in their school’s speech club, must stand up for others and are established student activists.

Teen ambassadors are an important part of the STOMP Out Bullying team; they are peer leaders and have the ability to not only make a difference in the lives of others, but make a difference in their own communities as well.

I focus on encompassing those values in my personal mission statement as branch manager at Downtown Bremerton.”

hen most people hear the term “water trails,” they might think kayaks, canoes and paddle boards.

But the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails, and its designation as part of the National Water Trails system, means much more.

According to local officials and business owners, having that designation and being part of the Washington Water Trails Association means tourism dollars and a boost to the local economy.

Patricia Graf-Hoke, executive director of Visit Kitsap Peninsula, the region’s official tourism development agency, said it means national and international attention and the opportunity to attract more outdoor recreation visitors.

In May 2014, U.S. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell approved Kitsap County’s application to have the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails added to the National Water Trails System. Since then, the Water Trails has been featured in national press release announcements, National Park publications and mostly in local, regional newspapers.

In the past few months, media exposure has included a feature article in the May edition of Alaska-Horizon Airlines’ inflight magazine, Beyond, with a readership of 600,000; and in the June issue of Scuba-H2O, an international magazine

focus of the Water Trails tends to be on paddling, it includes other water-related activities including sailing, stand-up paddle boards, Tribal canoes, outriggers, boating and fishing.”

Kitsap already is a popular destination for cycling, mountain biking and marathons, Graf-Hoke said.

The national designation of Kitsap’s Water Trails provides another opportunity to build on the brand, the Natural Side of Puget Sound, that Visit Kitsap Peninsula has been promoting since 2009.

Graf-Hoke was one of 16 industry leaders appointed

by Gov. Jay Inslee to a Blue Ribbon Task Force See ECONOMY, Page 3

Economy

Continued from page 2 for Parks & Outdoor Recreation. The task force was charged with looking at the economic impact of outdoor recreation and short- and long-term funding strategies. To help identify the economic benefits of outdoor recreation, waterways and parks, Washington State hired Earth Economics to conduct a study and prepare a report, which was released in February.

Key findings in the report showed that recreation associated with “public waters” generates the highest tourism-related revenue — $21.6 billion is spent every year in Washington state on outdoor recreation.

Washington residents average 27 visits per year to local parks, making local parks the most visited land type for outdoor recreation.

The Earth Economic report ranked Kitsap fourth in the state in

employment, with 6,700 jobs attributed to outdoor recreation, and sixth with $700 million in sales and expenditures related to outdoor recreation activities and visitors.

The Visit Kitsap Peninsula board decided in 2009 to make Kitsap’s natural environment and outdoor recreation assets a primary focus of its branding, marketing and tourism strategy. Since it didn’t have the advantage of mega hotels, sport complexes or large conference centers, the board decide instead to take advantage of the region’s close proximity to Seattle/ Tacoma and the Eastside (Bellevue) metro area and target urban employees and dwellers.

“The Earth Economic’s study and the national water designation definitely validates the VKP’s decision to target outdoor recreation visitors,” said Graf-Hoke.

“It’s a logical way to help diversity in the economy and help hoteliers increase sales among lei-

sure travelers which have more disposable income and can pay higher room rates versus government travelers which are

capped at a lower per-diem rate.”

It’s a strategy that appears to be reaping positive results for local government and hotels, she said. According to recent Smith Travel Reports, lodging revenues for Kitsap County are up more than 15 percent over the last year and in some cases up 23 percent month to month. Sales in Kitsap County are up nearly $900,000 in the first six month.

Additionally, the water trails is being enjoyed by

more than boaters. It’s spawned improvements to docks and marinas along its route that are also used by day hikers and those who fish. It has also increased the number of folks who enjoy other water sports such as scuba diving and underwater photography.

Among those who are seeing a greater interest in Kitsap County waterways, partly due to the water trails, is Kathy Garcia, manager of the Bremerton Marina.

“At both Bremerton and Port Orchard (marinas), we’re seeing a lot of interest in the water trails,” said Garcia. “People have been coming in more frequently and asking about kayak storage. More and more people are trying to get to the water via trails.”

Garcia said the marinas are no longer just a place to put motorboats in the water.

Polynesian outrigger canoe club will be in festival

BY LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com

T

hey’re on the water at least three times a week from March to October. Some are natives of Hawaii. Some are folks who have traveled to Hawaii and love the culture. Others just like to paddle.

They are the Hui Heihei Wa’aa Polynesian outrigger club of Kitsap County, and they are more than 60 members strong.

The club will be at the Water Trails Festival on June 27, at Silverdale Waterfront Park. They plan to share information about the sport, show techniques on dry land

Continued from page 3 “We’re trying to incorporate it (the water trails) into what we do,� she said. “We’re working on more storage facilities for kayaks and we’re promoting the water trails at the boat shows we go to.�

Additionally, the re-opening of the Harper Pier, also a property of the Port of Bremerton, and the addition of a float that

and, if possible, take some folks out to paddle. “We want to spread the word about the culture

and tradition behind this sport,� member Debee Straub said. “We want to share our love of pad-

dling.�

According to paddling experts, the outrigger canoe is a type of canoe

featuring one or more lateral support floats known as outriggers, which are fastened to

one or both sides of the main hull. Smaller canoes

allows kayakers to tie up their kayaks, was influenced by the water trails.

Harper Pier also serves as a recreational facility for fishing and diving. “With the re-opening of Harper Pier, the connection to the water trails is great,� Garcia said. “People can tie up their boats and take a walk along the beach.�

It’s a place where divers can go underwater and where local fishing is known to be good, she

added. And there are restrooms nearby, which makes it a convenient stop.

Jerry Rowland, manager at the Port of Brownsville, is a fan of the water trails, too. “I think it’s going to bring more people to Kitsap County,� he said. “Instead of this being the place they travel through to get to somewhere else, they’re stopping and enjoying the view of our countryside from the water.�

While the Brownsville dock is small and doesn’t have a lot of amenities, he said he’s seeing more people use it as a place to launch their kayaks or stop off for a rest while kayaking. “I’m excited about it,� he said. “It’s great that it is happening.�

Another small town that has been helped by the water trails is Tracyton.

Last summer, the Port of Tracyton did work to its dock and added a rest area

for kayakers. There are picnicking areas nearby and a small grocery store and a pub.

According to Port Commissioner Ted Hilliard, the port decided to make improvements because commissioners were excited to be on the water trails. “It puts us back on the map,� he said.

Poulsbo is also expecting to see a benefit from the water trails. “It can’t be anything but

good if it helps promote the water and use of the water,� said Brad Miller, director of the Port of Poulsbo.

Although the Port of Poulsbo is a destination port for motorized watercraft and sailboats, Miller hopes it will attract kayakers and those who paddle. “If those visitors shop and eat and stay in Poulsbo, that definitely will have a positive impact,� he said.

Outrigger

Continued from page 4 often employ a single outrigger on the port side, while larger canoes may employ a single-outrigger, double-outrigger or double-hull configuration.

The sailing canoes are an important part of the Polynesian heritage and are raced and sailed in Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa and by the Maori of New Zealand.

Unlike a single-hulled canoe, an outrigger or double-hull canoe generates stability as a result of the distance between its hulls rather than due to the shape of each individual hull.

As such, the hulls of outrigger or double-hull canoes are typically longer, narrower and more hydro-dynamically efficient than those of single-hull canoes. Compared to other types of canoes, outrigger canoes can be quite fast, yet are also capable of being paddled and sailed in rougher water.

This paddling technique, however, differs greatly from kayaking or rowing. The paddle, or blade, is single sided, with either a straight or a double-bend shaft. Despite the single paddle, an experienced person will only paddle on one side, using a technique such as a J-stroke to maintain heading and stability.

The outrigger float is called the “ama” in many Polynesian and Micronesian languages.

The spars connecting the ama to the main hull are called “aiako” in Hawaiian and kiato in Maori; in Micronesian languages, the term “aka” is used.

The club was founded in 1997 by coach Rod Rodenhurst, who moved to Kitsap County from Hawaii. Members paddle on Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays at Silverdale on Dyes Inlet, and again on Saturday mornings. There is a club for youth who want to learn the techniques, which meets on Saturdays after the adults practice.

And throughout May, June and July, they compete in regattas. This July, they host the Whaling Days Dyes Inlet Dash July 26 as a way to share the sport with those who want

to come out and try outrigger canoe sprint team racing.

Straub and her husband joined the group in 2008, when they moved back to Kitsap County after both served in the Navy.

“I fell in love with it,” she said. “It’s something you can do all year round.”

Straub decided to try it when she had the desire to constantly be on the water, but in winter it was too cold to swim. While she’s visited Hawaii once, and didn’t ever want to leave, her real passion is “being on the water.”

She considers it a sport and is very competitive, but said many people see it as a recreational pursuit.

“It’s definitely different from regular canoeing,” she said. “You have to use your whole body in order to have the right technique as you paddle.”

She called it an art based on strength and rhythm.

“You have to be in line with everyone else who is in your boat,” she said.

As an experienced outrigger, Straub competes in regattas against teams from Seattle, Portland, Bellingham and those in the Tri-City area. She also competes in 500-meter sprints. In the winter months, she canoes in long-distance runs.

While traditional outrigger paddlers sometimes wear ceremonial dress, club members wear shorts and tank tops with the team logo. In colder months, they wear heavier clothing.

When the season begins, the club has a “Blessing of the Canoes,” usually performed in native Hawaiian language.

And when someone close to the club passes, club members celebrate the passing on the water where they all raise their paddles toward Heaven.

“Part of our work is to share the culture and bring awareness to the native ways of the Hawaiian population,” she said. “Some of it is ceremonial and some of it is just fun.”

There’s more underwater than you think

BY LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com

T

here’s no doubt in Jim Gunderson’s mind that the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails and its national status is bringing new divers to the area.

“It’s bringing more attention to what is under water in Kitsap County,” said Gunderson. “It’s an absolute treasure and most people don’t know that.”

Gunderson owns and operates Hula Kai Adventures, a Kingstonbased scuba diving business which he opened in October 2014.

Admittedly, most people don’t think about the Pacific Northwest when planning a scuba diving trip, Gunderson said. They typically think Hawaii, or the Caribbean or Belize.

According to Gunderson, our waters are home to the plumose anemone; a variety of nudibranchs, each of which is absolutely beautiful; seals and ling cod; Dungeness and rock crabs; the pink Pacific sea star and the sun star, the largest sea stars in the world; and the giant Pacific octopus, the largest known octopus in the world.

“All of these are here in the waters of Kitsap County, not to mention a number of ship wrecks,” he added.

At the Water Trails Festival on June 27, Gunderson plans to go underwater at Silverdale with a camera and a mask with a communication device so that he can describe what he’s seeing.

There will be a monitor on shore where people can

The pink Pacific sea star is one of the largest sea stars in the world, and it makes its home in Kitsap County’s waters.

view what he’s doing.

“We’ll start near the surface and look at two different species of mussels,” he said. “As we go deeper, we’ll see clams and feather duster worms and Christmas tree worms.

They’re not really worms

at all. The feather duster looks just like the feather duster your grandma used.”

Additionally, folks will be able to view hermit and Dungeness crabs and juvenile perch.

What he also plans to show those on shore is the trash that’s left at the bottom of Dyes Inlet.

“It will be a teaching moment — the sober side of things,” Gunderson said.

“Just because you throw a can or a cup overboard, that doesn’t mean it’s gone forever.”

In his years diving, he’s brought up many bags of trash, including golf balls.

“Hundreds of them,” he said. “There’s countless things down there that no diver wants to see. We have a beautiful treasure and we need to keep it pristine.”

On June 28, he or divers with Sound Dive of Bremerton will be at the Port of Brownsville to repeat the underwater camera dive. The U.S. Coast Guard is helping with the camera dive.

Great dive sites throughout Kitsap County include Rockaway Beach and Blakely Harbor on Bainbridge Island, Seabeck, Harpers Pier in Port Orchard, and many

“Just because you throw a can or a cup overboard, that doesn’t mean it’s gone forever.”

— Jim Gunderson others, he said.

With the notoriety of the Water Trails, word is getting out about what great dives can happen here, Gunderson said.

“There’s an uptick in interest of what is here,” he said. “I’ve been out talking to groups like the Rotary and Kiwanis to educate them about the incredible life that is under water around here.”

For most who scuba dive, watching the interaction of sea life with its environment is what takes them underwater.

“Just sitting and watching what’s there can be fascinating,” he said.

‘Cap’n Safety’ had roles in two films, TV program

BY LESLIE KELLY AND TERRY ASLA For Kitsap Week

I

f you’ve ever watched “Master and Commander,” “Pirates of the Caribbean” or “Once Upon a Time,” you’ll think the man in charge of safety for the Kitsap Water Trails Festival Paddles looks familiar.

His name is Captain John Morrison — “JB” to his friends — and he is the safety captain for the Brownsville Brownie Challenge Paddle on June 27 and the Keys to Keyport Fun Paddle and Raffle on June 28.

The two events are part of the Kitsap Water Trails Festival that will take place at the ports of Brownsville, Keyport and Silverdale.

Affable and outgoing, Morrison makes light of his movie-making experiences and how he wound up in front of the cameras.

“I was cast as a background actor in ‘Master and Commander’ and wound up taking on extra duties I was qualified for because of my nautical and safety background,” said Morrison, who once captained for Vessel Assist Tacoma.

Morrison, a professional sailor with a 100-ton masters ticket (license), takes safety on the water very

Diving

Continued from page 10 Another off-shoot of diving is underwater photography and videography.

“It’s considered a specialty of diving,” he said. “You can take incredible photos of the life under water. In fact, there are some phenomenal underwater photographers from this area who have been published in national magazines.”

Recently, the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails was featured in Scuba H2O magazine, which told divers about what they can find under the water in Kitsap.

seriously.

“While personal safety is each paddler’s responsibility, we will have safety boats laid on for the two paddles,” he said, “including a ‘Tail End Charlie’ that can give anyone who gets tired or cold a tow or ride.”

Captain Morrison has more than a decade of experience restoring tall ships and is presently in charge of rebuilding the tall ship Fiddler’s Dream at the Port of Brownsville.

Tours of the schooner and a kids’ toy wooden boat build will be offered from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

June 28.

A native of eastern Washington who ran away to sea for a life of adventure, his advice to beginning boaters is “Be prepared. Take a class, file a float plan and have the right equipment and clothing.”

Morrison grew up in a family that moved around

dives to his credit and has a degree in marine science.

He was a research diver for the University of Hawaii for three years before moving to Kitsap County. He came here because of the diving.

“Good diving brought me here,” Gunderson said.

“It’s world class.”

His company offers classes for beginners to experienced divers. Go to www.hulakaiscuba.com or call 360-297-3483.

Sound Dive, 5000 Burwell St., Bremerton, is another resource for those who want to know about scuba diving in and around Kitsap.

Other favorite dive spots of local scuba divers include Manchester, Harper Pier, Illahee Dock, Fort Ward, Port Washington and Hood Canal.

Bainbridge has scuba diving at Point White Pier, where the historic former Mosquito Fleet was once docked. Kitsap Memorial State Park near Poulsbo also is a beautiful setting for scuba diving.

Some must-sees at the Water Trails Festival

BY TERRY ASLA For Kitsap Week

Northwest BeechBoys will fly June 27 A group of private pilots based at Bremerton Airport who have taken precision flying to a higher level will perform at the Water Trails Festival on June 27.

Based on military formation flying techniques and procedures, they have formed a team that performs for festivals and other events in the Northwest. They have been flying about a decade.

They fly Beechcraft Bonanza aircraft, which is how they came up with the nickname “BeechBoys.”

“I started the concept when I lived in California,” said Jim Posner, flight lead. “There is a counterpart group that still performs similar forma-

Morrison

Continued from page 11 a lot.

“My father was in management and he kept getting promoted,” said Morrison. “As a kid, I moved 16 times.”

But his years spent near water made a lasting impression on him, and when it came time for him to be on his own, he chose the Pacific Coast.

Through a series of adventures and “pure luck,” he was able to train to sail tall ships.

“I did a very intensive two-week program on the Lady Washington,” he said. “And because of that, I was able to get work sailing with a number of tall ships. I loved it and I knew I wanted to stick with it and stay on the water.”

He has sea time aboard a dozen vessels including the HMS Surprise, Lady Washington, Hawaiian Chieftain, HMS Bounty — a square top-sail ketch — Argus, a schooner and Mary Day, with Vessel

tion demonstration flights there. When I moved up to Washington State, I started a group here and distinguished it from my formation flying friends in California by adding ‘Northwest’ to our name.”

Form flying requires discipline, practice and an attitude that safety is the primary goal, Posner said.

“We’ve never had an accident,” he said.

While the group’s flight configurations are similar to those of military formation flying demonstration teams such as the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels, they don’t fly nearly as close.

“Plus, we don’t have the engine power they do to maintain that kind of minute spacing,” Posner said. “Nevertheless, we do fly with about a three-foot separation — a safe margin but still requiring concentration and practice.”

Their flight June 27 will consist of three passes

overhead in different configurations to show how flexible this type of flying can be.

“We hope that you enjoy our show,” he said.

Assist Tacoma.

That experience led him to be asked to work on the sets of television shows and movies that included tall ships.

“Working as crew for TV and movies was an experience,” he said. “But I would rather have been on the water for real.”

As Morrison explained, much of the filming was done in studio with prop ships that were actually on barges. It was take after take of the same thing over and over.

“I kept thinking, ‘Let’s do this for real and get out to sea,’ ” he said. “But Hollywood, they like a controlled environment.”

He did work with Johnny Depp on the first “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie and more recently, he worked with Macklemore in his music video “Can’t Hold Us.” “That was more of a real thing,” he said. “We were out on the water

by Channel Islands near Ventura, California, and in Oakland Bay.” As for the future, he’s

not seeking out movies and TV anymore. He’s thrilled to be hired to rebuild the Fiddler’s Dream and be a part of bringing a tall ship to the Port of Brownsville.

He loves living onboard a Canary 33 sailing suite at the port and being near family. His mother and sister live in Seattle and he has a brother in Pullman.

Morrison thinks sailing got in his blood when he was young and lived near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where he saw all kinds of boats on the water.

“I watched boats all day long when I could,” he said. “I was just intrigued by sailboats, mostly because they weren’t loud or noisy and stinky. They were just beautiful and majestic.”

Festival marks years of work to create water trails

ome Saturday, chances are you’ll be able to see Kitsap County Commissioners Ed Wolfe, Rob Gelder and possibly Charlotte Garrido on the water in kayaks.

They say it’s the perfect way for them to celebrate the three to five years of work by the county and volunteers to ensure that the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails happened. In 2013, it was designated as part of the Cascadia Marine Trail by the Washington Water

Trails Association.

And with it now being designated as a part of the National Water Trails System, a celebration is truly in order.

The Water Trails Festival will be June 27 and 28, with activities on Saturday at the Silverdale Waterfront Park.

But it’s at Evergreen Park in Bremerton, where about 100 kayakers will put their boats in the water, along with Wolfe and Gelder. Wolfe and Gelder are experienced kayakers and Garrido has kayaked in the past.

“I’m just hoping the tide will be with us,” said Wolfe, who was elected to the commission last year. “The trip is about five miles and if all goes well, it will only take us a couple of hours.”

Wolfe said he and his wife like to put their kayaks in the water in Dyes Inlet just about anytime that the weather is good.

“I can leave work and go home and be on the water in about 20 minutes,” he said. “That’s one of the reasons I love living here.”

Gelder, in the past, was a serious kayaker who paddled and camped for week-

Bainbridge Island, to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and the waters of Hood Canal. There are 13 separate trails designed as a continuous tail experience, to make up the entire trail.

Kayakers can map out where they want to travel, based on their time and experience. At stops along the way, there are amenities such as connections to parks and trails for hiking, restrooms, places to picnic and rest, campgrounds and nearby stores and restaurants.

Visit Kitsap Peninsula actually developed the Water Trails map which

started the process of applying for national trails status, said Patty GrafHoke, executive director of Visit Kitsap Peninsula.

According to Eric Baker, policy manager for the Kitsap County commissioners, the county’s role in the creation of the Water Trails has been to work with the various jurisdictions along the trail to make sure that everything came together in an orderly fashion.

“In general, there is a robust outdoor recreation community in Kitsap County,” Baker said. “The SEE FESTIVAL, PAGE 3

long trips through the San Juan Islands. He is more a day kayaker now.

“I didn’t have room in my garage for the 17-foot kayak, so I sold it,” he said.

“Now, when I go out, I just rent a kayak.”

For this trip from Bremerton to Silverdale, Gelder is looking forward to a “nice leisurely paddle.”

“It’s on an incoming tide,” he said. “It will be great to have nature help us paddle.”

The Peninsula Water Trails includes more than 371 miles of shoreline from North Kitsap County to

Building Quality Dinghies and Yacht Tenders since 1987

Expertly crafted, custom-built rowing and sailing boats from 8-17’ Gig Harbor Boat Works is the builder of a unique line of custom small boats for rowing and sailing. Our boats are modern reproductions of small boats used during the last century of working sail when people earned their living using only wind and oar.

As custom boat builders, the experience of buying a boat from us is different than you’ll find in a big-box store, or even most online retailers. Ordering a boat from us is a personal experience.

For most of us, buying a boat is a major decision, so it’s very important to us that you get the boat that will make you happy. Along the way, you will have the benefit of our decades of experience in construction and design, as well as our first-hand knowledge of recreational boating. And in the end, you’ll end up with a boat that is the best fit for the way you are going to use it.

commissioners have been working very hard to see that the Waters Trails happen for the recreational opportunities it brings, and for the economic ecotourism that comes along with it.”

In dollars, the county has spent about $50,000 in improving amenities along the trail, plus staff time. And there has been more than 10,000 volunteer hours put toward the project in the past three to five years.

Leading the pack of volunteers is John Kuntz, owner of Olympic Outdoors Center in Port Gamble.

Wolfe said he was the power behind the formation of the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails. Kuntz has been paddling in Kitsap County since 1996 and in 2008 he joined the North Kitsap Trails Association to work on trails on land and water.

“John has been passionate and persistent about the Water Trails,” said Wolfe. “He has so much to do with everything that has happened.” Kuntz said

KITSAP PENINSULA WATER TRAILS FESTIVAL

the water trails is a dream come true for him.

“It is something that I never imagined would happen but believed it could,” he said. “To take an idea I had almost 20 years ago and have invested thousands of hours of my time and many others and transform it into a reality is very gratifying and humbling.

“The thing that occurs to me most is how passionate and sincere this movement has become.

It is truly everyone’s trail that touches so many lives and improves our quality of life through recreation, eco-tourism, environment, education, and more.”

Kuntz estimates that paddling-related activities bring $1.7 million annually to the Kitsap County economy. Wolfe thinks that’s just one of the great things about the water trails getting so much attention.

“Kitsap used to be known as the ‘Gateway to the Olympics,’ ” said Wolfe.

“That’s true. But now we are a destination in and of ourselves.”

People come here and stay here for recreation, he said. That means they spend their dollars at local hotels and restaurants, too.

But, he said, it’s a quality

of life issue, too.

“For people who live here, it’s a big deal,” he said. “They crave outdoor experiences. And it gives people a reason to stay here for their entertainment.”

He added that “natural pursuits” have brought companies like REI, Inc. to the area. A grant by REI was used to create the signage all along the water trails, he added.

While great strides have been made with the Water Trails creation, the work isn’t finished. The Water Trails Alliance, a group of about 60 members, will oversee any future growth.

Baker said the alliance will communicate with shoreline owners and recreators along the route in addressing issues that may face the water trails. Such things as keeping trail and rest stop standards equal and adding points to the trail are among things they will oversee.

All jurisdictions that have shoreline along the water trails are represented in the group, including the county, several port district, four Kitsap County cities, Gig Harbor, the community of Union, Visit Kitsap, Mason County, and Kuntz.

Festival

Continued from page 12 can summon emergency help.

By establishing the National Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails, Kitsap is inviting people to come and paddle our beautiful waterways. But bad weather and dangerous water conditions are always a possibility. While it is ultimately up to the individual to paddle responsibly, the Water Trails Festival Committee sees the festival as an opportunity help people learn to paddle safer.

So, Olympic Outdoor Center will be offering paddling and equipment instruction in Silverdale on June 27 and Bremerton West Marine will participate in a paddling basics class on June 28 at Brownsville.

Additionally, safety boats will accompany the two free paddles originating from Brownsville — the Brownsville Brownie Challenge Paddle for

experienced paddlers on June 27, and the Keys to Keyport Fun Paddle and Raffle for beginners on June 28.

SPOT will be going along on both paddles. It is the festival organizers’ hope that, when people see how well SPOT works — and how affordable it is — serious kayakers will purchase their own, and outfitters and ports along the Water Trails will make SPOT or similar products available for rent.

To learn more and to see SPOT in action, visit the SPOT booth in Silverdale June 27 and in Brownsville on June 28.

Brownsville, Keyport and Silverdale are National Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails destinations that offer three distinctive glamping styles to choose from.

Arriving by human-powered craft is the only way you can get a tent-camping site in the Port of Brownsville’s beautiful Burke Bay Overlook Park.

Free firewood, a giant fire pit, picnic tables, showers and restrooms, recreational games and a gazebo shelter for those really wet nights (it does rain in Washington) are just the beginning.

There’s the deli, famous for its giant sandwiches and music on Friday nights, the Daily Stop convenience store and the Host Boat, whose staff offer you concierge services including first aid.

STARS ABOVE KITSAP SUZANNE O’CLAIR

As the “owner” of the moon, Cancer intensifies this full moon, which is in Capricorn, the sign that escorts Winter Solstice in.

Considering that winter is one long opportunity to lose our lives in the dark and cold, you can imagine that Capricorn’s approach is 180 degrees different from Cancer. His concern is the welfare of the entire community. He wrestles with collective issues and getting the job done.

Emotions are not needed for pragmatic endeavors.

In the light of this moon, we consider our place between Cancer, the great mother, and Capricorn, the great father. Which end of the seesaw do you lean toward — duty or feelings, personal con-

cerns or community focus, what we feel or what they think? Where are you out of balance?

Crafting a lifestyle that works for you is selfcare (Cancer) at its best.

Summertime gives us a chance to ponder these conundrums. Bonus planets help this full moon guide where our hearts want to go at home and on the job. Get busy feeling your way down the path.
