Median home price in Kitsap: $265,000

By RICHARD WALKER

POULSBO — The number of homes on the market is shrinking while demand is growing, real estate agents say. And that’s helping drive up home prices.

“During a healthy market, we have probably two to three hundred homes on the market

Byrnes: Back to basics in education

Real estate market on the cusp of falling out of balance on the island. As of yesterday, we have 60,” Carter Dotson said on June 24. He’s an owner of Windermere Real Estate, with offices in Bainbridge, Poulsbo and Silverdale.

So, what’s that mean to those looking to sell or buy a home?

“When there’s enough inventory, the seller doesn’t have the advantage because buyers have more [homes] to choose from.

The buyer doesn’t have to make an all-cash offer or pay $50,000 over the asking price to acquire a home,” Dotson said.

“When there’s not enough inventory, buyers don’t have any-

State wants your input on ferry fare proposal OLYMPIA — Kitsap residents can weigh in on state ferry fare increases proposed to go into effect in October.

The proposed increase must generate $357 million

between July 1, 2015, and June 30, 2017, as required in the two-year state transportation budget for Washington State Ferries operations.

Here’s what’s proposed.

Oct. 1: A 2.5-percent fare increase for vehicles and a 1-percent fare increase for passengers.

The over-height surcharge for vehicles less than 22 feet in length would be

eliminated. The over-height waiver for qualifying disability vehicles 22- to 30-feet long would be expanded to include any feature necessary to accommodate a disability on the vehicle that

Home sales

tial home buyers: Interest rates are low, the economy is growing and it’s possible to end up with a mortgage payment that’s comparable to rent.

“Anyone who can buy a home today at today’s prices with today’s low interest rates should do it,” said Mike Gain, president of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Northwest, in the latest Northwest MLS report. “In my opinion, prices and monthly payments will never be

lower than they are today.”

Renters are among those re-entering the housing market.

“They are finding their monthly payment to be less than their rent payment for a similar home,” Gain said. “They also like the fact their payment will remain the same. And they’re finding there are numerous low-down payment assistance and no-down payment mortgages available at incredibly low interest rates.”

The market hasn’t fallen out of balance yet, Gain said.

“Locally, home prices are continuing to rise at a steady pace, and they continue to outpace both inflation and wage gains. Sellers may never see a better time to be a seller.”

In Kitsap in May, there were 592 new listings, 950 total active listings, 554 pending sales and 353 closed sales, according to the Northwest MLS. Real estate firms estimate there

Continued from page A1 of a home in Kitsap County was $265,000 in May, up from $230,000 in May 2014 and the ninth-highest among the 23 counties in the Northwest Multiple Listing Service (MLS).

is 2.69 months of inventory on the market to sustain demand, down from 4.11 months in May 2014 and well below the four- to six-month figure used by many industry watchers as an indicator of a balanced market.

Leading the region in median closing price was King County, $434,000, followed by San Juan County, $365,075; Snohomish County, $335,000; Island County, $284,050; Whatcom County, $277,000; Chelan County, $275,000; Douglas County, $270,372; Jefferson County, $270,000; and Kitsap.

At the end of May, the total number of active listings in the region stood at 19,515, a more-than 18-percent drop from a year ago when MLS members reported 23,917 active listings. Only two counties — Douglas and Ferry — reported year-over-year gains in inventory.

Regionwide, 8,229 home sales closed in May, up from 7,187 in May 2014.

In the MLS service area overall, there is about 2.4 months of supply, according to the report. About half the counties reported less than four months of supply.

Kitsap home-sellers are benefitting from the lack of housing inventory elsewhere.

“This is a supply-demand-distance type of market,” said Frank Wilson, branch managing broker at John L. Scott in Poulsbo.

“They have run out of inventory in the Seattle market, so now it’s just a matter of how far a buyer needs to drive to find a home that is available and affordable. Kitsap is seeing that demand increase with a bit of a lag as the market

rolls from east to west into Kitsap and beyond.”

Luxury home buyers are also active participants in the current market. A check of MLS statistics shows 887 single-family homes priced at $1 million or more have sold during the first five months of the year. That’s up from 696 for the same time frame a year ago, a jump of more than 27 percent.

Despite the fast pace of housing activity, Northwest MLS brokers cautioned buyers and sellers alike to make sensible decisions.

Sellers should make sure their home is not overpriced and that it’s listed on the Northwest MLS. And buyers need to be ready to write a strong offer.

“We are still seeing buyers who think getting a loan is like it was in the old days: fog a mirror and get a loan. That’s no longer the case,” Wilson said, adding that prospective home buyers must have documents and verification all the way through closing.

“Buyers need to be ready to buy on day No. 1. This means getting approved with their lender, being clear about what they want in a new home, becoming educated about the market and being ready to write a strong offer when they find the right home.”

Dotson concurred. “With historical low inventory, what I would say is, be prepared,” he said. “If you’re a buyer, make sure your financing is squared away to make yourself as competitive as possible. If you’re a seller, be prepared that your home will sell quickly.

And be realistic. There are properties that will sit on the market if they are not ready or are overpriced.”

Local woman walking for suicide prevention

Courtesy / Nicole Tong

“On Dec. 28, 2014, we lost my brother Evan Tong to suicide. No one saw it coming, as he was surrounded by friends and family and showed no signs of depression or struggling,” she wrote.

“But he made his decision, and although I know there is nothing I can do to bring him back, I am proud to walk to support AFSP. Because of walkers

and donors, AFSP has been able to set a goal to reduce the annual suicide rate 20 percent by 2025.”

According to AFSP, close to one million people will make a suicide attempt and more than 40,000 will die by suicide in the U.S. this year.

“It is important to know that suicide can be prevented,” Tong wrote. “That is why I am walking in the Overnight. I want to take

action to prevent suicide.”

Proceeds from Out of the Darkness Overnight support research and prevention, advocacy and education programs including distribution of the foundation’s More Than Sad educational program on teen depression and suicide prevention to high schools across the country.

Pixton was named the Primary Teacher of the Year.

“I greatly admire Mrs. Pixton’s ability to truly see students as individuals, clearly respecting all backgrounds and abilities,” Jan Hellenga wrote on her nomination form. “Rather than shy away from even the most difficult student situations, she strives to find the ‘keys’ each individual needs for success.”

Pixton is dean of students at Poulsbo Elementary.

Hellenga, an intensive-support para-educator who has worked with Pixton, wrote, “Mrs. Pixton’s special teaching techniques grow from her honest respect for her students. She builds a ‘safety net’ that helps a student want to be there. …

Barbara Pixton is a valuable member of our school, our

district and our community.”

Debbie Beggs, who also nominated Pixton, wrote, “Mrs. Pixton’s teaching has always been one where the students are encouraged to dig deeper for the answer, rather than just getting the answer.”

Melissa Rogers wrote of Pixton, “She sets high expectations and, time and again, her students rise to meet them.”

“You might find someone with more years of experience,” Rogers wrote, “but you will not find anyone more qualified or deserving of this award. Mrs. Pixton is truly exceptional.”

Dunbar, an English teacher at North Kitsap High School, was named the Secondary Teacher of the Year.

Mira Beich wrote, “Peggy always encourages students to do their per-

sonal best. She connects abstract learning to concrete situations to nurture and encourage understanding, and helps students delve deeper into English and readings.”

John Davis wrote in his nomination, “In addition to motivating students, she has created a Book Talk evening, in which she matches juniors with community members after school to deepen the enrichment of a book experience.”

Debra Dyer said Dunbar “was the first teacher my son had in high school who truly challenged him to give more than the bare minimum.”

“She establishes a rapport with her students that is unmatched,” Dyer wrote in her nomination form.

“She has their respect and their admiration. She expects only the best out

of her students, and doesn’t accept anything less.”

Jennifer PippinMontanez said, “Peggy’s students describe her as caring, funny and generous. They remark on her creative assignments and engaging activities.

IN OUR OPINION

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 that are illegal to own or possess in Washington state.

Three, eight sparkler-bomb devices caused six multiple-trauma injuries and 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 warmer 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 only legal on S’Klallam or Suquamish land. Again, follow instructions, and ask the vendor for locations of safe places to enjoy your fireworks.

Meanwhile, here’s a list of fireworks shows, from north to south. Have a memorable, and safe, Fourth of July.

Why so many U.S. flags fly O

ur friends from Newcastle, Australia, Laurie (the guy) and Lynne (the gal) Wales, just completed a visit with us, their third. Always, I get a new perspective on my life, our beautiful area and my America when we are with them.

Over the years, discussion topics have been as disparate as, “Why is U.S. money so boring?

We have artists, poets, teachers, scientists and inventors on our bills; you have Ben Franklin, Alexander Hamilton and dead Presidents?” to “Why are food portions in America so large?”

Conversations with them are always fun, thought-provoking and enlightening.

This year, as we ate dinner, Laurie wondered out loud why so many flags fly in the U.S. “You could go days,” he said, “without seeing an Australian flying the nation’s flag. Why are Americans so patriotic? What are you Americans most proud of from your country?”

TOLMAN’S TALES

By JEFF TOLMAN As a result of the conversation, I became more aware of the number of flags flying from governmental offices, businesses, homes and on cars. American flags are, particularly since Sept. 11, 2001, ubiquitous.

Why are Americans so patriotic? What are we Americans most proud of from our country? Good questions with, no doubt, varied and individual answers.

I love the diversity of thought, experience and perspective in the States. A month in New York City would reveal a very different citizenry than a month in Omaha or Anchorage or San Francisco.

There are many blocks sewn together to create the American quilt. Despite our many inherent differences, the flag reminds us we 320 million Americans are in this world together. Fifty stars and

13 stripes on one flag, a symbol of the very diverse “us” as one country.

The flag also symbolizes the changing nature of our nation.

From the original 13 colonies to now half-a-hundred states. From rebelling against the British to putting a man on the moon. From a country where only males could vote or own property to a nation continually expanding its vision, and goal, of inclusion.

When I see the flag waving in the breeze, it symbolizes the non-symmetrical, up-and-down, sometimes smooth and often bumpy, vibrant, always moving journey America has taken and is taking today. Over the past 239 years, we have overcome, and survived, many issues, conflicts and heartaches. There are certainly more challenges ahead.

Immigration. The national budget.

Medical care. Education. Student loan debt. Race relations. Gun control. Foreign policy.

Like the flag flying in the breeze, our national journey will be a battle against strong forces of nature. Economic disparity.

Wealthy campaign contributors versus the politically unheard. The unemployed losing faith, hope and self-respect. Yet, like the flag, I am confident we will continue to survive the winds ahead. And fly.

Finally, seeing the flying flag reinforces my hope for my grandchildren. While many opine that See TOLMAN, Page A7

Suquamish Tribe’s spirit of giving

T

he Suquamish Tribe has gifted $4.45 million in philanthropic giving to Kitsap communities since 2007. This year, $553,121 was gifted to 241 organizations.

The funds come from Appendix X grants (Appendix X [section 14] of the Gaming Compact between the Suquamish Tribe and the State of Washington describes specific funds available for award to charitable, non-profit and Tribal community programs), as well as the Port Madison Enterprises Board of Directors Fund, Clearwater Casino Resort sponsorships and in-kind donations, and employee giving.

(Employees have raised a total of $31,898 for Relay For Life.)

This spirit of giving speaks to the growing economic strength of the Suquamish Tribe. But it also speaks to the Tribe’s culture of caring and sharing — a culture that is a vital part of our local safety net.

We raise our hands in thanks. Hy’shqa, Suquamish Tribe, for your generosity and stewardship.

Byrnes

Continued from page A1 “Sure, we can do this now,” she said.

Byrnes, 55, is one of three candidates for the District 4 position on the North Kitsap School Board. The others are Scott Henden of Kingston, an electrical contractor seeking a second term; and Glen Robbins of Port Gamble, president of the Poulsbo Sons of Norway Lodge.

The two top vote-getters in the Aug. 4 primary will advance to the Nov. 3 general election. School board members serve four-year terms and are not paid.

Her approach to education seems to mirror her approach to work she’s done in program design and performance management: direct and back to basics — establish a program, set goals and implement a process to monitor progress toward accomplishing the mission.

According to her bio, in her career for CARE, World Vision and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, she worked with farmers and stake-

holders to strengthen delivery of services to farmers; established project goals and implemented monitoring systems to ensure goals were met; and provided technical, financial and organizational support needed to accomplish increased ag production.

She believes education can operate the same way.

“I’ve been very involved in training and adult learning. It’s one of the reasons I’m interested in serving on the school board,” she said.

“The school district came up with a strategic plan and I have a lot of experience in that. They have a bunch of goals in the strategic plan, but it’s not clear what the activities are [to ensure they meet those goals]. For example, the overall goal is to increase the graduation rate to 95 percent of the state average by 2020, but it’s not clear what data they’ll use to measure that.”

Likewise for community engagement.“It’s one of their goals, but they don’t know how they’re going to do that. They haven’t been specific on what kinds of topics they need to engage

with the community on.”

Served on school board in Freetown, Sierra Leone

Byrnes, 55, has a bachelor of science in agronomy from Washington State University and a master of science in agricultural economics from Oregon State University. She and her husband have a total of eight children. The youngest graduated this year from Kingston High.

Her first experience as a school board member was in a uniquely challenging environment. She was working in Sierra Leone as food-security program coordinator for CARE and was elected to the board of the State Department’s American International School in Freetown.

“It was just as the civil war was ending,” Byrnes said. “The school had taken on damage from the war. It was difficult to get teachers.

“It was a small school — 50 students, five or six teachers and a principal/ teacher — and it was a great school. We just tried to be supportive of the principal in getting things done.”

From 1989 to 2008 — with the exception of a

year working as an economic analyst for the State of Washington — she lived and worked in Bangladesh, Rwanda and Sierra Leone as a socioeconomist or program coordinator.

After returning to the States, she worked for six months as King County WorkSource area director; four years as agriculture program officer for Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; and is now an independent consultant on program design and performance management.

She said she’s consulting in Bangladesh at the end of July.

Here’s what she had to say about some issues.

■ Common Core: Common Core (www.

corestandards.org) is an initiative that details what K–12 students should know in English language arts and mathematics at the end of each grade.

Common Core has been adopted by 41 states, including Washington; four states have repealed or withdrawn from it.

“I’m not an expert on Common Core, but my understanding is they have this assessment to measure whether children are learning what is in Common Core. But there’s a lack of clarity on what it is kids are really expected to understand or learn.”

She added, “It’s up to local superintendents to clarify what it means [to teachers], because they have to implement it.

They’ve been told they have to administer the test, but they don’t know what’s in the test.”

(Byrnes’ former employer, the Gates Foundation, is a financial supporter of the Common Core Initiative.)

■ Testing: “Testing and data are two different topics. A concern I have is, we’re changing tests too frequently. To change your mind every four years on how to test kids is like changing the goal posts in the middle of the soccer game.”

■ District and teen suicide prevention: Four North Kitsap district students have committed sui-

cide in the last five years.

“We never know the personal issue of why someone commits suicide, because it’s private and individual. Schools and school districts are expected to take on every issue, but if they were focused more on education and not expected to spend so much time on so many new programs, I think kids would be less likely to do those things, if they were fully engaged in learning and where they were going with their future.”

■ On how she stands apart from the other candidates: “Primarily, I’m very analytical. I would like the school board, the school district, to look at the bigger issues. If 30 percent of third graders cannot read, why’s that? If 30 percent of fifth-graders can’t read at grade level or at the third-grade level, should you send them on to middle school?”

■ On relations with Port Gamble S’Klallam and Suquamish governments: “I’m not all that familiar with it, but I know they do have sovereignty and they are very involved in the education of their children. It’s important that culture is included in their children’s education and that they get that cultural perspective. And it seems like the school district has a very good relationship with the Tribes.”

Poulsbo Community Orchestra performs June 28 POULSBO — Guest violinist Jennifer Yarbrough will perform with the Poulsbo Community Orchestra 3 p.m. June 28 at North Point Church, across from North Kitsap High School.

The concert is free and open to the public.

Yarbrough will play “The Lark Ascending, Romance for Violin and Orchestra,”

by Ralph Vaughan Williams, which was first performed in London in 1921.

Yarbrough is a professional violinist and Suzuki violin instructor with the University of Puget Sound’s Community Music Department. She earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Cincinnati, College-Conservatory of Music.

A native of Knoxville, Tennessee, she is a member of the Yakima Symphony Orchestra, teaches violin in her Poulsbo studio and coaches the Bainbridge Island Youth Orchestra and the Poulsbo Community Orchestra’s string section.

Jennifer Yarbrough is a professional violinist, an instructor at the University of Puget Sound, and a member of the Yakima Symphony Orchestra.

Contributed She formerly performed with the Olympia Symphony Orchestra and the Fayetteville (North Carolina) Symphony Orchestra.

The Poulsbo orchestra, conducted by Maestro Bruce Mansfield, will perform three additional pieces: “Finlandia, Op. 26,” composed by Jean Sibelius of Finland in 1899; “Peer Gynt,” by Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg, first performed in Oslo in 1876; and Grieg’s “Wedding Day

at Troldhaugen,” composed in 1896 for the celebration of his 25th wedding anniversary.

The highlight of the Poulsbo Community Orchestra’s concer t will undoubtedly be Yarbrough’s violin solo in “The Lark Ascending,” in recognition of the poem of the same name by George Meredith.

Composer Williams’ work on this piece was interrupted by his enlistment in the army in 1914 at the outbreak of

the Great War. After his service as an orderly in the Royal Army Medical Corps, he fine-tuned, orchestrated and completed his creation in 1919.

The Poulsbo orchestra’s free Sunday-afternoon concert is the fifth concert of great classical music in the young orchestra’s first 13 months. Concerts are also community fundraisers, and attendees will have opportunities to contribute to North Point Church’s “School Lunch Program” as well as to the orchestra, a nonprofit corporation.

Volunteer musicians, including high-school students and military family members from throughout the Puget Sound region, pay registration fees and rehearse weekly throughout the year. Auditions are not required, and a minimum of two years’ recent instrumental experience is required.

In addition to musician fees, funding for the orchestra comes from donations from the Poulsbo Lions and Rotary clubs; the Peninsula Music and Arts Society; and individual donors.

s k n a Th

Other sponsors include North Point Church and the Poulsbo Parks and Recreation Department.

On July 13, a six-week rehearsal session will begin with a focus on chamber groups, including the Viking Brass ensemble.

In mid-September, the orchestra (www.Poulsbo CommunityOrchestra.org), formed in April 2014, will become a full-time symphony in Poulsbo, according to executive director Steve Swann.

for the wonderful Anniversary greeting!

By SARA N. MILLER

BREMERTON — Familiar music played and the stands were filled with Jedi Knights and members of the rebellion as Safeco Field was transported to a gal-

axy far, far away on June 19. The first-ever “Star Wars Night” was a big success as fans flocked to watch the Mariners beat the Astros 5-2.

Two members in attendance were Bremerton’s Melissa

Bates and Patrick Lewis.

They met playing basketball at the Y and love sports, especially the Mariners.

“I was born in Seattle and raised in Bremerton,” said Lewis. “They’re the home team.”

Lewis’ father is in the Navy and he loves calling

Bremerton home.

“It feels like a big town and it’s nice to be able to hop on the ferry and enjoy the city life or hop over to this side for a break,” he said.

“It’s so easy to ride the ferry,” agreed Bates. “You can get stuff done and not

get stuck in traffic. It’s a guaranteed connection.”

Bates is a communications officer and has been stationed in Bremerton for the last three years. One of her favorite things about going to Mariner’s games is seeing the Moose.

“He’s always dressed up, wearing cute Daisy Dukes or something,” said Bates.

In Friday’s case, the moose was in full Jedi attire.

On the field, she likes watching Robinson Cano.

“That’s who my son likes to watch, so I like watching him,” said Bates. “That, and he’s a great second baseman and that’s the position I played.”

Lewis said, “Like everyone, I like Felix Hernandez.”

In an article published in ESPN the Magazine in March 2015, Kevin Van Valkenburg features Seattle’s favorite pitcher, Felix Hernandez.

In the feature, Van

Valkenburg quoted Felix talking about King’s Court saying, “That right there is why I never wanted to leave.

That’s why I want to win here.”

In summation: Mariner’s fans are loyal to those who are loyal to them. Like a fan outside of King’s Court quoted in the same article, “Griffey left. A-Rod left.

Randy Johnson left. We finally got a Hall of Famer who reciprocates the love we have for him.”

Lewis liked Felix’s opinion of the fans that come ready to cheer him on at Safeco every night. Dressed in Mariners jerseys, other Seattle team gear or full-on Storm Trooper attire.

“That’s one of the reasons I like him. Seattle has some of the most loyal fans,” said Lewis. “It’s the atmosphere at games, the players and the team, they make you feel a good connection to them.”

These kayakers love being on the water

By LESLIE KELLY

F

or Lynn and Mark Schorn, there’s no debate. If they’ve got time on their hands, you’ll find them on the water in their kayaks.

“We live on Gamble Bay,” said Mark. “So quite often, we just put our kayaks in the water by our house and kayak up to Port Gamble and back.

That’s about a four-mile trip.”

For them, that’s an easy, enjoyable route. But the couple, who have been kayaking together for more than 20 years, also enjoys the rough routes, too. They’ve done a sixweek trip in the water off southeast Alaska. In fact, for years they acted as guides and took other Kayakers on trips near Vancouver Island, Canada and Alaska.

“Each year we’d take a family trip, too,” Mark said.

“We’d spend five days on the water, camping on the beaches and taking everything we needed with us in the boat.”

Actually, he said, kayak camping beats hiking and camping any day.

“When you hike, you have to carry everything on your back,” he said.

“With the kayak, you can pack all the weight in compartments in the front and rear of the boat.”

Most kayaks can carry 300 pounds, according to

sive as some may think, they say. But before purchasing a kayak, they suggest renting one.

“Try different boats out,” said Mark. “See what you like and make sure its a sport you want to invest in.”

Some people prefer a double or tandem kayak where two people can paddle together. There’s even a triple kayak, with a seat in the middle, often used by couples with a child.

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.

To learn more about the services of the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office, visit http://www.kitsapgov.com/ pros/, email us at kpelland@ co.kitsap.wa.us or call us at 360-337-7174.

Dan Konopaski June 8, 2015 Dan Konopaski passed away June 8 at home in Hansville with family. Up to the last few days he was joking, which was typical Dan! He loved being where there were friends, family, music, laughter, a potluck or buffet and a good time. It tickled him to play Santa, play games with children, work with teens, and play guitar and sing around a campfire.

He enjoyed skiing, traveling, camping, boating, fishing, and hunting. One of his biggest adventures was an 8-week trip from Hansville to Skagway, AK and back with his wife in their 22’ outboard motor boat! His delight after retiring from teaching shop, art and math in California, Bellevue and Poulsbo, were his grandchildren, Chase, Kelsey, Aubrey and Gavin. Dan was a genuine North Westerner, born in Forks, raised in Sekiu, graduated from Port Angeles High, and WWU. He also served in the Navy at US Navy Hospital Camp Pendleton as a Corpsman. Born to Carl and Viola (Warner) Konopaski, he is surviv ed by his wife Ellen (Smith) Konopaski, daughter Dana Patrick (Bruce), 4 grandchildren, brother Rollin “Bud” Konopaski (Judy), sister Sandra Decker (Richard), sister Lisa “Jan” llk (Steve), Aunt Lorna Konopaski, nieces, nephews, and many, many cousins. A memorial will be later this summer.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Gideons, Hansville Community Church or N.W. Parkinson’s Foundation. Please visit Dan’s online guestbook at www. poulsbomortuary.com TRIBUTE Paid Notice

John Wallace (Jack) Harding, 97, passed away on June 8, 2015 at the Madison Avenue Retirement Center on Bainbridge Island. Jack was born on February 3, 1918 at Swedish Hospital in Seattle, WA to Edward Percy Harding and Ella Avis Walton Harding.

He graduated from West Seattle High School in 1936 and then went on to Whitman College in Walla Walla, WA where he graduated in 1940 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English. During his freshman year at Whitman, he met Elizabeth Fairbank, a senior majoring in Music, and they were married on April 5, 1941. They were married for 64 years until her death in 2005. Jack and Elizabeth had two children, John Wallace Jr. born on August 2, 1943 and Janet Elizabeth born on February 15, 1947.

Upon graduation, Jack went to work at the University of Washington as a buyer in the Purchasing Department and was promoted to Assistant Purchasing Agent in 1941.

Jack joined the U.S. Navy in 1942 and spent the war as an intelligence officer stationed at various Navy and Coast Guard bases from New York to South Carolina.

After the war, he returned to Seattle and the University of Washington where he worked in various positions including Director of the Physical Plant and Assistant Vice President for Business and Finance until he retired in 1972 Upon retirement, Jack and Elizabeth sold their home in the View Ridge area of Seattle and remodeled the family summer cabin on Bainbridge Island and moved permanently to the island.

After retirement, Jack and Elizabeth enjoyed weekend visits from their grandsons, annual trips to Maui to visit friends and car trips around the country to visit relatives.

They also enjoyed foreign travel to England, Spain, Italy, France, Turkey, Mexico and Thailand.

Jack enjoyed boating for most of his life and usually owned a small runabout for fishing and water skiing. In 1982, he and Elizabeth bought a 36-foot powerboat, named Astarte, which had enough room to feed and sleep four people for extended periods. It was this boat that allowed them to explore the San Juan Islands, Canada’s Gulf Islands, Desolation Sound and to take off for four months in 1986 and cruise to Alaska with Elizabeth’s sister Janet Thompson and her husband Reg. When boating became a larger part of their lives, they became active in the Poulsbo Yacht Club and the Agate Pass Sail and Power Squadron where they made many new friends.

Whitman College remained near and dear to Jack and Elizabeth throughout their lives. They attended the Whitman Senior Alumni College most summers until failing health precluded travel.

Jack was preceded in death by his wife, Elizabeth, his sister Grace (Lesher), his brother Edward and Janet Thompson, his companion from 2006 until her death in 2013.

He is survived by his son John Jr. (Phyllis) of Bainbridge Island, WA, his daughter Janet (Gary Rambo) of Seattle, WA, grandson Louis Rambo (Lindsey) of Los Angeles, CA, grandson Charles Rambo (Emily) of Olympia, WA, step-grandson Joseph Rambo (Jennifer) of Sisters, OR, step-great-granddaughter Courtney Rambo of Bellingham, WA, sister-in-law Martha Fairbank of Durham, NC, sister-in-law Janette Harding of Friendswood, TX and many nieces and nephews.

Services are planned for the end of summer.

No injuries occurred in Kingston apartment fire Dryer fire caused little damage

By MICHELLE BEAHM

mbeahm@northkitsapherald.com

KINGSTON — No one was injured in a small fire June 24 at Bay View Estates.

The fire, which appeared to start near the back of a dryer in the connective flexible tube, caused minimal damage. North Kitsap Fire & Rescue were alerted to the fire at 11 a.m., and the incident commander, Rick LaGrandeur, said the fire appeared to be out by

the time they arrived on the scene.

“There was nothing but some white smoke coming out of the tube,” LaGrandeur said.

According to LaGrandeur, lint somewhere in the tube connecting the dryer to the metal exhaust pipe “got hot enough to catch fire and burn up some backed-up lint within the tube.”

Building owner Dese Simpson said Above, firefighters examine a dryer vent after a fire started inside on June the fire started when 24, causing smoke to come out of both ends of the vent pipe. Right, firefighta construction worker ers cut into a ceiling after the fire to ensure the fire was completely put out was replacing a vent.

June 24.

Michelle Beahm / Herald The worker, David Bublat of Matthew said, “I was just replacing out. At one point, there was Hamilton Construction, one of the covers … and an observation of flames.”

Simpson, who was home just noticed smoke coming

“I’m thankful that we were able to catch it quick. There was a quick response from the fire department; that was nice.”

we were able to catch it quick. There was a quick response from the fire department; that was nice.”

After the fire appeared to be over, firefighters cut into the apartment ceiling to check the pipe and ensure the fire was completely out.

“What we’re most concerned about at this point is making sure the fire was contained to that metal tube, it didn’t get outside and endanger the other structural members, which is what we’re working on now,” LaGrandeur said.

“Doesn’t appear that it did.”

He said that it appeared all the damage occurred to the dryer unit and the flexible tube.

LaGrandeur said that fires like this aren’t very common; usually, dryer fires tend to start in the lint trap inside the unit itself.

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit restaurant opens in Olhava

Dickey’s Barbecue Pit opened its doors at 11 a.m. June 11 in College Marketplace, next door to Big 5 Sporting Goods in Poulsbo, following a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Owner Thomas “Doc” Dryer and City Councilman Ed Stern cut the ribbon. Dryer said he’s happy to open his second Dickey’s in the region — he owns another in Port Orchard — and he looks forward to growing the business in the city and becoming a member of the community. (The photo caption published on June 12, page A11, did not include the restaurant’s location.)

Michelle Beahm / Herald From left, That’s A Some Italian Ristorante owners Marti Grant and Tom and Marie Pelland celebrate their 25-year anniversary of opening the restaurant. “We’ve really enjoyed this community and the people here, and they’ve supported us well for 25 years,” Tom Pelland said. “It’s been a pleasure to get to know everybody here … I love this community and I like the business; I plan on just continuing to operate.”

The restaurant opened in 1990 and was the site of the Pellands’ wedding. It has since expanded into the neighboring property, incorporating a wine shop, Marie Pelland said. That’s A Some Italian is located at 18881 Front St. NE in Poulsbo, and offers “classic” Italian cuisine made from scratch.

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.

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

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

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-

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

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.

Get Ready - Here it Comes!

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

“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.”

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.

Glamping on the Kitsap Water Trails Even the most die-hard, back-to-basics paddler can crave some creature comforts after a hard day’s paddle — glamour camping or “glamping,” if you will.

He was one of 12 cats in the household. There were dogs there too which he chose to ignore. He would like to be an indoor only cat. You can meet Owlsen at the Poulsbo Petco this week. He’s ready to go to his new home.

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.

Full Moon: Sun in Cancer/Moon in Capricorn July 1, 7:12 p.m. ummertime and the livin’ is easy! You can count on two things during summer: memories of summers past, and our routines lighten up.

How can you not stop and smell the roses when they are in bloom, the sky is blue and the temperature is perfect?

Summer events gather the family. We take time off work on July 3 for the road trip to grandparents, the fishing trip with a brother, time at the cabin with cousins and barbecue on patios with friends.

Reigning over these festivities and blessing new memories sits the lovely Cancer, Queen of the clan.

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.
