‘Let it not happen again’ Political talk of discrimination ignites islanders BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
Mary Woodward looked out across the crowd that packed the Japanese American Exclusion Memorial, their many faces illuminated by the flickering flames of candles in the frigid night air, and was impressed. Others would be, too, if only they could be there. “I just really wish that my mother and daddy were here. They’d be over the moon to see this,” she said. Woodward, of course, is the youngest daughter of Walt and Milly Woodward, the couple who bought the Bainbridge Island Review in 1940 and found themselves thrust into a lonely sort of fame the following year when Japan launched its surprise attack at Pearl Harbor and the United States was pulled into World War II. The Woodwards famously stood by their island neighbors and friends — Japanese Americans, many of whom had lived here for a generation or more — as war hysteria swept the nation. TURN TO VIGIL | A45

CONTRACT TALKS AT AN IMPASSE
School district, classified employees seek mediation BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
Brian Kelly | Bainbridge Island Review
Mary Woodward, daughter of famed Review editors and outspoken protesters of the Japanese internment Walt and Milly Woodward, speaks at Monday’s vigil.
For the first time in its 16-year history, the union that represents classified employees of the Bainbridge Island School District and the district are going into mediation. Negotiations over a new contract have stalled. “Our bargaining team has spent more than a year preparing to negotiate with the district, but we are at an impasse,” Mike McCloud, president of the Bainbridge Island Educational Support Professional Association, said at last week’s school board meeting. He was joined by more than 60 colleagues, dressed in black to express their frustration with the provisions in their current contract, which expired on Aug. 31 of this year. Bargaining teams from the district and BIESPA have met for 11 negotiation sessions since late last spring, with the primary dispute centered around compensation. District officials, however, have said inadequate state funding makes it difficult to address the salary concerns of classified staff. “When we took our jobs with the district, we never expected to get rich,” McCloud said. “We love our kids and are committed to their education. But we also

They wore black to show solidarity with colleagues who voiced contract concerns. know that we are not paid what we are worth. “That’s not just me saying that,” he added, referencing a June 2012 report from the Compensation Technical Work Group, which found that classified staff across Washington earned significantly less than their private sector counterparts — anywhere from 5.5 to 27.6 percent, depending on the position. “Throughout the Great Recession, we have been patient,” McCloud continued. “We realize that many of these financial hardships are the result of factors that none of us could control. “But now, after years of patience, with the economy improving and the state funding increasing, we think it’s more important to take care of all district

employees, the people who are the lifeblood of our mission, than to add to an already unhealthy fund imbalance,” he said. Classified staff have endured a series of losses over the past six years, starting with negligible cost-of-living adjustments and surging medical insurance premiums, McCloud explained. “Bus drivers’ hours have been cut; custodial staff have been cut while square footage has increased; para-educators have lost planning and consultation time,” he said. “Most of us are no longer included in staff meetings as we once were.

In Our Opinion
’Tis the season - to recycle
C
hristmas is coming! With the promise of gifts, stuffed stockings — and piles of trash and wrapping paper. But here comes Bainbridge Island Zero Waste to the rescue: the group has gathered a long list of recycling information that will help this holiday season cause less of a strain on landfills while preserving our planet’s limited resources. Some highlights: Have bubble wrap? Recycle it (clear, not colored; remove all tape) – from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 16 and Sunday, Jan. 17 at Bay Hay & Feed. Styrofoam (snappable) blocks (clean, dry, white; remove tape and stickers) will also be accepted. Dud or dead batteries? Take them to the transfer station on Vincent Road. While you’re there, you can also drop off cardboard boxes and gift bags (remove non-paper handles and non-paper decorations) unless you have curbside recycling. The transfer station also accepts computer monitors and CPUs, laptops, tablets and TVs. Cell phones and small items (calculators, camcorders, iPods, MP3 players, printer cartridges, video games, etc.), computer peripherals can be taken to Best Buy or Staples. Compostable “peanuts” – put them on the ground, add water and watch them disintegrate. Holiday light strings can be dropped off at Ace Hardware through Jan. 17. Plastic bags can be dropped off at Town & Country and Safeway. And your leftover tree? Boy Scout Troop 1564 will pick it up at the curbside on Saturday, Jan. 9, 2016. Trees are chipped and used locally. Make a reservation for pick-up at www.treerecycle.net. Have a happy holiday season, but please recycle. And if you can, leave the coal out of the stockings and in the ground.

Letters In response
Timely thoughts on what, where to donate To the editor: I dropped off some clothes at Helpline the other day. Something hit me that I think needs to be shared. If you would be embarrassed to have your name written on a label attached to a piece of clothing, (or anything), you probably shouldn’t assume that the people who use Helpline want it either. When people drop off clothes with stains, rips, or just plain dirty, that says something about you. Likewise, appliances that are useless or just crappy. Helpline is not an in-town dump, and the people who need assistance there shouldn’t be made to feel like less than you. Don’t misunderstand, I’m not referring to the many people who support Helpline with wonderful donations. Obviously I’m not talking to you. You know who you are. The people who put in long hours as volunteers shouldn’t have to spend time going over every donation to make sure it is presentable. Helpline is a true gift to the island and should be treated that way. I also replaced all my bed pillows the other day. I looked ridiculous standing in line totally hidden by a huge white cloud that went from my head to the floor. A woman behind me asked what I was going to do with my old pillows, and since they were pretty bad looking from years of service, I was thinking of tossing them. She suggested I donate them to the Kitsap Animal Shelter. Dogs don’t mind what they look like and it gives them a soft bed to curl up on. Made wonderful sense to me. ROBIN MELTON Bainbridge Island
Bicyclists: Please bathe in reflective clothing To the editor: I read the sad news this past week about the bicycle commuter being hit by a bus on 305 and I thought it’s a good time to remind our bicycling commuting friends what you look like, in the dark, from behind, in the wee hours of the morning. Most of you have red lights on the back of your bike, and that’s a great start. Some blinking (better), some not, some bright (better), some not so much. But the ones we really see are the ones who bathe themselves in reflective tape, or clothing. There’s one person whose entire jacket is made out of reflective material and I can see him (her?) from a mile away. And keep in mind, if your jacket has reflective tape on it, but your backpack covers it up, it’s no help to you or me on you being seen. Put the reflectors on your backpack — hello? When it’s dark and rainy out there, and you’re grinding it out at oh-dark-and-rainy-thirty on your way to the ferry, please help yourselves to be safe by being as visible as possible. Might save your life. JIM FOOTH Manzanita
Health care
Virginia Mason will move medical center To the editor: Virginia Mason Bainbridge Island Medical Center is proud to have served the community for decades from 380 Winslow Way. We are dedicated to ensuring Virginia Mason provides an exceptional setting for island residents to receive remarkable care for generations.
We appreciate the historical presence of the Winslow Way location, however, the current facility and size of the property limit our ability to expand services to meet the evolving health care needs of the community. We have been exploring numerous options for a replacement medical center during the past two years. This has been a thoughtful and thorough process in which we have looked at existing facilities and sites, including the existing site, as well as new development alternatives. The Wintergreen Walk development at High School Road and Highway 305 presents the best opportunity for us to create a facility that will allow for the needed expansion of services and medical procedures. We anticipate moving into our new location in late 2018. One of our top priorities is to build the right facility in the right setting, and we are mindful of the potential impacts of new development. We will also invite our patients and community residents to take part in planning events that focus on the patient experience at the new facility. Over the next several months, we will announce dates, times and locations of these public events and we hope you and your family will actively participate. All of us at Virginia Mason Bainbridge Island Medical Center are grateful to be part of this special community and for the opportunity to call a new corner of it home for our medical center of the future. Also, we are very grateful to Dr. Tom Haggar, owner of the building at our Winslow Way location, for the support he has provided our medical teams through the years. DR.

Second opinion
Do desperate times call for desperate measures?
INSPIRE YOUR HOME WITH GREAT DESIGN.
In the song “Boy in the Bubble,” Paul Simon sings “these are the days of miracle and wonder.” And indeed they are, replete with powerful technology that effectively shrinks time and space, medical prowess that extends and improves lives and a staggering scientific understanding of our universe — from the minute to the magnificent. But, as Simon also sings, these are the days of “the bomb in the baby carriage,” camo-clad couples firing fusillades, and dictators and military extremists forcing refugees to flee their homelands. How to respond? Is it any wonder we mostly meet these spasms of violence with bigoted bombast and simple solutions — our animal brains are quick to stereotype and differentiate in an anxious effort to seek short-term safety. We are not unlike the orcas that avoided Penn Cove for nearly 45 years after seven young whales were captured there in the early 1970s. Like us now, the orcas then were confused; they mistook a symptom (dangerous coves where their cousins were entrapped) for a cause (commercially motivated humans who could seek them out anywhere). Are we making that same mistake when faced with spasms of violence that sear our screens? Are the perpetrators of senseless violence the cause or are they the symptom of a deeper issue: a cultural unrest that killing the killers will not cure? It may be helpful to compare our global society to a person: what if the violence that is poisoning our world is not so much an incarnation of evil as a species self-injury? Therapists tell us that when an individual compulsively engages in self-harm, it’s often the result of intense anger and frustration fused with extreme impatience to make that anger and frustration go away. Many people who self-harm describe “being at war” with their
Interfaith

bodies. Self-harming is not suicidal; it’s a twisted attempt at self-soothing. Further, though self-injury is an impulsive act, it’s usually not without preparation. People who self-damage anticipate the action and imagine how to accomplish it wherever they might be—at home, at school, at work. (When I read that the California couple who opened fire in San Bernardino died with a significant cache of weapons and ammo left behind, I thought they must have been compulsively preparing and impulsively acting.) So what’s the treatment for dysphoria — personal or cultural? First, radical acceptance. We need to acknowledge our situation; we need to — in Twelve-Step parlance — “conduct a fearless and searching inventory” of ourselves. As the Alcoholics Anonymous Big Book spells it out, “we searched out the flaws in our makeup which caused our failure.” Among those flaws in our global body: those in power often abuse that power to selfish advantage; we are inclined to make decisions based on short-term rather than longterm consequences; and we can easily abandon moral principle when faced with physical threat. Second, cultivate compassion. Seek to treat each other as we wish to be treated ourselves. The implications of this ancient cross-faith directive — the Golden Rule — are discomforting but necessary. Can we still from our fear/confusion/anger and seek out our enemies’ humanity? Rather than fixating on whether an assailant is “crazy” or “a terrorist,” can we consider that he or she
may be a profoundly wounded individual whose actions may be borne out of intense anger and frustration? Can we allow that the desire to resort to violence is universal (look how quickly France and the U.K. unleashed bombs on ISIS after the Paris attacks, or how rapidly the U.S. waged war following Sept. 11, 2001) — and recognize that violence always begets more violence? Third, communication. Eboo Patel, president of Interfaith Youth Core, says that while we know there are fundamental things we disagree about, we should seek to identify fundamental things on which we agree. Food and safety, for starters. We should build on those. And we commit to listening deeply to those we see as enemies: recognize they can teach us a lot. There are heartening examples of the movement towards this kind of cultural health — specifically seeing refugees as common victims of violence, not the enemies themselves. Here are two: our community gathering in support of Muslim Americans at the Japanese Exclusion Memorial on Monday, Dec. 14, and expressing commitments to help Syrian refugees at this month’s Bainbridge Island/ North Kitsap Interfaith Council meeting. If we can, even for a moment, silence our fears, we may gain perspective and open an avenue for hope. As Simon concludes his song, “[imagine] the way we look to a distant constellation/That’s dying in the corner of the sky/These are the days of miracle and wonder/And don’t cry baby, don’t cry.” Reed Price is a member of Eagle Harbor Congregational Church and communications coordinator for the Bainbridge Island/North Kitsap Interfaith Council. He is involved in the effort to make Bainbridge Island a registered Compassionate Community with The Charter for Compassion International. doesn’t always always It Itdoesn’t happen to happen to the the other guy! guy. other

Bainbridge Island Review
eremy Loerch’s art really moves people. So fast, in fact, they should wear a helmet. His industrial aesthetic, currently on display downtown as the main window display at Bainbridge Arts & Crafts in the form of one custom motorcycle, is probably not what comes to mind when most art lovers think of Bainbridge Island. Then again, Loerch himself probably isn’t what comes to mind when most people think of Bainbridge Island. But beneath the motor oil stains, the back road metal shop and all the tattoos is a mentor who is truly passionate about teaching — especially keeping the trade industries alive in today’s education system. As the founder of the nonprofit school Alchemy Industrial Arts, Loerch and his fellow instructors work to inspire an increased
interest in the trades, such as the machining, welding, and fabrication fields, as an alternative to other career paths — as well as instilling creativity and DIY learning opportunities for both children and adult students. “I was a teacher for 14 years,” Loerch said. “My background actually is in education.” His accomplishments in the field were numerous and prestigious, but the former kindergar-
ten and middle school teacher said he eventually knew it wasn’t the path for him. “I got burned out with the education system primarily because every kid [was] supposed to fit into this niche and it’s just not the case,” he said. Though the master fabricator, owner of Monkey Wrench Fabrications, has built several motorcycles, he said that the one on display downtown is his

favorite. “I feel like it almost willed itself to be built,” he said. “I had some ideas in my head, but it just kind of came together nicer than any other motorcycle I’ve ever built.” Starting with a rebuilt motor and transmission from his old ’74 Harley FLH, Loerch then built the entire frame from scratch using welding and blacksmithing techniques to shape the twisting, sinuous forms. “The shiny stuff,” as he calls it, is aluminum; cut, brushed and decorated in his shop. The whole project took approximately 320 hours, he said. “The bike in the window just started off as a collection of just random parts I had,” Loerch said. “I just kind of wanted to build something really over the top. “I’ve always loved riding, but I’ve been welding and messing around with metal since I was 11,” he added.

Author talks of snakes and sunrises Our breath catches and we jump in fear at the sight of a snake. We pause and marvel at the sublime beauty of a sunrise. These reactions are no accident, argues Seattle author and evolutionary biologist Gordon Orians. In fact, he writes that many of our human responses to nature are steeped in our deep evolutionary past. Orians will visit Eagle Harbor Book Company at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 7 to discuss this idea and his book “Snakes, Sunrises, and Shakespeare: How Evolution Shapes Our Loves and Fears.” We fear snakes because of the danger of venom or constriction, and we welcome the assurances of the sunrise as the predatory dangers of the dark night disappear. Many of our aesthetic preferences — from the kinds of gardens we build to the foods we enjoy and the entertainment we seek — are the lingering result of natural selection.

Historic rock ‘n’ roll photo show on display through January at Paper & Leaf BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
The primary subject of the photo series on display now, the first solo artistic exhibition at Paper & Leaf, would appreciate the venue. He was, after all, known to get high. With a little help from his friends, of course. Bainbridge-based photographer Linda Wolf’s collection of classic rock imagery from the historic 1970 Joe Cocker “Mad Dogs & Englishmen” tour, along with shots from the Mad Dogs Tribute Concert event and reunion with the Tedeschi Trucks Band earlier this year, will be on display at the island cannabis shop through mid-January. The exhibition happened just in time to mark the oneyear anniversary of Cocker’s death last December. Wolf, who moved to Bainbridge in 1990, has created many photographs which can be found in museums, libraries and private collections around the world — including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Stephen White Gallery, National Museum of Women in the Arts and the National
Library of France in Paris, among others. It was in the world of concert photography where she first made a name for herself when, at the age of 20, while traveling with Cocker and the many musicians on the “Mad Dogs & Englishmen” tour, she served as one of only two official photographers. Wolf boarded the tour bus — along with 42 others, three kids and a dog — and captured more than 4,000 images during their two months on the road. Footage from many of the historic performances on the tour show her moving around on stage freely capturing the show, Wolf said. It was a very different time in the entertainment industry. “In the ‘70’s, that’s the way it was,” Wolf said. “We were all part of this ‘Mad Dogs’ circus and so there wasn’t this feeling of separateness. Everybody was together making it happen, including the audience. Oftentimes, the lights would be on in the auditorium so that everybody felt [like they were] a part of it. “It was a very special time,” she added.

said. “He was so, so loving. He just had a great ability to bond with people.” She recalled one particularly personal moment when, later in his career, Cocker performed at the Moore Theatre and brought with him something special for her, who he had not seen in almost 40 years by then. Another “Mad Dogs” tour alumni had given Cocker an important tape days before to give to Wolf. Then, after the concert, when Wolf and her family went backstage to visit with Cocker, he proceeded to deliver the tape to her immediately, not through an assistant or a roadie, but himself. “When Joe emerged from the dressing room he went straight to me,” she remem-

And it was like, ‘He carried it?’ ‘All this time?’ To make sure he wouldn’t forget to give it to me. It was really an emotional moment for me, because it reminded me how much I mattered. “It was just like him to do that,” she laughed. Wolf’s work done during the time she spent living in France will be the subject of a second exhibition at Hitchcock Delicatessen in downtown Winslow early next year. She said she has also begun writing a memoir as well. Visit www.lindawolf.net to learn more about Wolf and her work. The barrier-breaking bohemian said that though she shoots with a digital camera these days and hasn’t been in a darkroom lately, her shooting technique and her creative mindset have not changed. She loves the continued democratization of photography, she said, through more user-friendly cameras, cell phone imagery and even Instagram. “Art elitism is, in my opinion, part of a systemic issue in our culture,” Wolf said. “I think that every human being should recognize that they can be creative and artistic and learn.”

He also holds a free open shop session every Thursday from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m at 9392 Wardwell Ave. NE. “I like older things, when there’s a history to it,” Loerch said. “If I can salvage it and save it, I like to restore it. If not, I cut it up and make something gnarly out of it because it’s just fun to do.”

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS READY TO BUILD COOL STUFF This coming Spring, Fairbank Construction Company is hosting three high school interns as part of our Career in Construction Program. This program was developed in 2014, thanks to great efforts from Tom McCloskey working on behalf of the Rotary Club of Bainbridge Island, staff and personnel at the Bainbridge High School and our VP of Business Operations, Jeremie Lipton. Last year, Caitlin Williams successfully completed a 13-week program focused on Finance, Human Resources, Project Management and Field Work. We are excited to announce that this year’s program will touch on the same disciplines as last year, along with the added challenge of building a neighborhood bus stop. John Hutchins (Eagle Harbor High School), Mitchell Young (Bainbridge Island High School), and Albert Ragsdale (Bainbridge Island High School) have been competitively selected as this year’s interns. John, Mitchell and Albert will work with the oversight of our skilled labor force and management team to construct a neighborhood bus stop and manage the business aspects of a construction project. If you would like your neighborhood to be considered, please contact Jeremie Lipton at (206) 842-9217 or by email at jeremie@fairbankconstruction.com. All proposals must be received by Wednesday, December 30th. Please limit written communications to 3-5 sentences and include the location of the proposed bus stop. We will select a proposal based on what we feel will provide the best opportunity for our interns.

NEW YEAR’S
Mochi Tsuki returns to IslandWood A sweet tradition returns to IslandWood for the 27th year in early January: the annual Mochi Tsuki gathering. For more than a millennium, making and eating the sweet rice treat mochi (moe-chee) has been a celebrated New Year’s tradition in Japan, with generations of families and communities coming
together to wish good health and prosperity for the new year. As one of the nation’s longest-running public mochi tsuki (moechee-zu-key) events, the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Community welcomes everyone to the 27th annual community celebration on Sunday, Jan. 3 at IslandWood. The event runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Highlights include performances from the acclaimed Seattle taiko drum group Kokon Taiko, and to comply with fire safety laws, each of the three taiko drum performances will be limited to 175 seats. Free tickets for each performance will be available 20 minutes prior to each performance on a
first-come, first-served basis. The award-winning historical exhibit “Kodomo No Tameni – For the sake of the children” and a video and images of Bainbridge Island Japanese American Exclusion Memorial “Nidoto Nai Yoni – Let It Not Happen Again” National Historic Site will be on display. There will, of course, be “Mochi-making 101” to highlight the day. Members of the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Community will prepare some batches of mochi in the centuries-old method of first steaming the sweet rice over an open fire, then placing the cooked rice into a warm stone or concrete bowl called an usu.
Using large wooden mallets, two people rhythmically pound the rice in the usu, while with bare hands a third person swiftly moves the rice between each mallet crash. After several minutes of vigorous pounding, the rice becomes a thick, smooth dough — mochi. From manual pounding in the usu or special mochi-making appliances, the mochi is removed and children of all ages hand form the steaming-hot mochi into small handball-sized cakes, filling some of them with a sweet bean paste called ahn. While arguably mochi is best eaten hot and fresh, many enjoy roasting it in the oven, then dipping MOSS CONTROL • TUTORING • HOUSE CLEANING • HAULING • HANDYMAN SERVICES • PAINTING • PIANO TUNING • LESSONS • ROOFING • AUTO REPAIR • LANDSCAPING • WORD
explores the role of evolution in human responses to the environment, beginning with why we have emotions and ending with evolutionary approaches to aesthetics. He reveals how our emotional lives today are shaped by decisions our ancestors made centuries ago on African savannas as they selected places to live, sought food and safety and socialized in small hunter-gatherer groups. During this time our likes and dislikes became wired in our brains, as appropriate responses to the environment meant
the difference between survival and death. Orians’ rich analysis explains why we mimic the tropical savannas of our ancestors in our parks and gardens, why we are simultaneously attracted to and cautious around danger and how paying close attention to nature’s sounds has resulted in us being an unusually musical species. We also learn why we have developed discriminating palates for wine; why we have strong reactions to some odors; and
why we enjoy classifying almost everything. Orians is professor emeritus of biology at the University of Washington. Visit www.eagleharbor books.com to learn more about this and other upcoming author events.

Last chance to catch Kroehler show at BPA BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
A truck full of windows helped Christopher Kroehler share his view with the world. The Shoreline-based painter, whose illustrative, graphic work is the subject of this month’s solo exhibition at Bainbridge Performing Arts, said he first began working in what would become his trademark style — oil paintings on glass — via experimentations with woodworking. “When I first graduated from UW, [and] I studied painting, fine art, I decided to put painting aside and I started creating furniture,” he said. Eventually he began adding some decorative painting to his creations, especially his handmade tables. “I started dropping a piece of glass on the tabletop in the center and sometimes I would do a simple painting on the back of it,” he said. “I started taking the tops off

Kroehler began experimenting with new paints and techniques while working on the old windows, eventually having his work discovered by a Seattle Art Museum rep during a group show at Bumbershoot. “That’s how I kind of started getting known for that style of painting — through that venue,” he said. “It was
just gimmicky enough and just different enough that people hadn’t seen a lot of paintings on windows like that before.” Kroehler said his theatrical and narrative style comes from many of the styles he was exposed to while growing up in Japan, as well as his love for the work by the German Expressionist painters, though it is of an admittedly lighter mood. “My pieces aren’t deep,” he said. “I’m not trying to come up with any kind of grand

BEHIND THE LIGHTS
A Paris apartment, two visionaries and a little help from their friends BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
Sandy White is up early on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, unraveling extension cords. Next, he and six other men — Arnie Sturham, Mike Juneau, Bob Grimm, Tom Bryant, Howie Paine and Paine’s stepson, John Zheng — tackle the van, unloading parts. And within a few hours, Winslow Way’s stars and scrolls are up and glowing. Fifteen years in, they’ve got the system down pat. “It’s really smooth,” Paine said. He shows up every holiday to lead the effort in honor of his friend, Bob Cederwall, who inspired and coordinated all sorts of merry-making in downtown Bainbridge. As an expert tree surgeon, Bob Cederwall was constantly climbing. But every three years, he’d make a special trek up the fir near his wife’s downtown studio, pockets packed with bulbs. About 30 feet up, he’d encounter the extension cord that’s perpetually plugged into an outlet at Flying Penguin Design. And another 90 feet or so, he’d reach his target: a 5-foot wide star, encased in tape from its many years of wear and tear at the summit. He’d

The pieces depict the contract between the happiness found in life and among family that many people experience, and disappointment from falling short of the gilded concept of the American dream by failing to reach career and life goals.

Cederwall’s next holiday scheme, certainly less hair-raising, came by way of Dana Berg. Berg was in Paris one December, mesmerized by the twinkling lights on Rue Cler, the cobblestone market
street outside her apartment. That’s when she decided Bainbridge needed some luster. “There are over 70 streets in Paris that have lights across them,” her husband Bart explained. “It’s very dramatic the way they do it. It’s artsy, designed to the space. You get pretty encour-

BLOEDEL RESERVE
Candle-lit solstice walk at the reserve This year’s shortest day feels a little brighter when traipsing through the trails of the Bloedel Reserve by candlelight. Doors to the event, which takes place Monday, Dec. 21, open at 4 and the walk begins at 4:45 p.m. After looping through the grounds, the group will gather for cider and conversation. The $15 ticket includes a lantern and a candle and is available at www. brownpapertickets.com/ event/2361839. Guests are encouraged to wear proper footwear and exercise caution, as the only light will be from the candles. For more info, visit www.bloedelreserve.org.
aged by how things look.” Berg set to work with her friend Bob, and “after much research, measuring and decision-making,” Bob’s wife Denise recalled, “their plan came to fruition.” Berg, who owned Dana’s Showhouse at the time, made the purchase and rounded up other merchants to help cover the costs. The first year, they had
just two stars and scrolls, Bart said. But eventually, the display grew to seven, stored in the Berg’s garage. After fix or six years, Bob took over, and added another tradition: the annual “screwing party.” It was more innocent than it sounds. “They’d fix all the lights from previous years,” Denise said. When Bob passed away three years ago, there was some question if the tradition would continue. They were supposed to put the stars and scrolls up six days later, White recalled. Paine had to scour the property for all the pieces. “It was chaos!” he said. “I don’t know where he keeps his stuff. I had to comb through his truck and into his personal belongings and several outbuildings.” But it was perhaps helpful for the grieving. “It was creepy and enjoyable at the same time, just reminiscing about all the good times we had,” Paine said. Bob’s parting gift to the island was another
festive plot featuring his wife. A month before he died, Denise said he volunteered her to decorate the tree at Madrone Lane. “The first year we all kind of badmouthed Bob as we were putting it up because it was kind of a hassle,” she laughed. But now, on year three, it’s a book club tradition. Last year, Andie Mackin, former executive director of the Bainbridge Island Downtown Association, received a Rotary grant to strip, powder coat and completely rewire the stars and scrolls with new wide angle LEDs. The gang fixed up Bob’s star, too. It needed it badly. “He must have used 10 rolls of electrical tape to hold that thing together,” Paine said. “But now it’s killer!” New this year is a memorial star by Winslow Green, dedicated to Bob and Dana, who passed away in April. “It’s a reminder of two incredible individuals who were always about the, ‘OK, we can do that!’” Denise said.
Holiday Village returns for season Dwight Shappell continues to expand upon his handmade Holiday Village at the Bloedel Reserve, now an annual tradition with whimsical trains and exquisite houses filling multiple rooms at the reserve’s Visitor’s Center. Kids will enjoy taking in every detail — from the tiny bedspreads to the wooden shingles — with a new scavenger hunt that guides them through the exhibit. Adults will be impressed, too, as they admire Shappell’s structures, made entirely out of materials he’s collected, with the exception of paint and glue. Cider and cookies, plus entrance to the exhibit, open through Jan. 3, are included with admission. The reserve is at 7571 NE Dolphin Drive and is closed Mondays, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

Bainbridge couple planning zipline tour at Pleasant Beach BY BRIAN KELLY
Bainbridge Island Review
Islanders may soon have the chance to fly through a forest of tall trees like a wide-eyed woodpecker. A Bainbridge Island couple who have been pioneers in the commercial zipline industry are planning on starting a zipline canopy tour business near Pleasant Beach Village. Rachel and Matthew DeSpain have applied for a conditional use permit for their new zipline business with the city of Bainbridge Island. A zipline is a gravity-powered cable system that allows riders in a harness to ascend steep slopes through scenic landscapes, and have proven popular across the United States and the world. Rachel DeSpain said the couple hopes to create an attraction for islanders, especially one that will give families with children something to do on Bainbridge. “It’s just really a unique experience,” she said. “It’s not an adrenaline thing. It’s more of like gliding from tree to tree. It’s just a really nice outdoor experience.” The DeSpains have a long history with ziplines. The couple moved to the island from Alaska, where they opened the third zipline tour to open in the
United States in the winter of 2005. They operated the business for 10 years, and it was once rated the number one tour in Juneau. The pair have also served as consultants in the zipline industry, and Rachel DeSpain served for four years on the International Zipline/ Canopy Tour Committee through the Association of Challenge Technology, where she helped with developing standards for installation, inspection and construction of zipline tours around the world. The first time she ziplined was in Costa Rica 15 years ago, she recalled, and she’s been on so many tours since then that she’s lost count. Her love of nature, she said, is a main reason why she’s become such an advocate for ziplines. “I’ve always had a huge love for the trees and for nature,” she said. Her husband, too, so much so that they named their 4-year-old daughter Zoelle Arbor. “Now, as parents, we’re excited to give our daughter and her friends nice, outdoor, family friendly activities to do on the island. There’s not a lot of options for that on Bainbridge,” she said. The couple’s proposal is planned for a parcel near the pool at Pleasant Beach. It includes five zipline cables, 10 aerial platforms, four suspension bridges and two elevated platforms, where zipline

There will also be gravel trails through the operation. Construction and the operation will be low-impact. The location was chosen “very mindfully,” she said, and should fit in well with the existing amenities at Pleasant Beach Village. DeSpain said they also plan to open a retail space, called Bainbridge Island Outfitters, at Pleasant Beach Village. The location will sell merchandise — and provide everything
from outdoor gear to bike and paddleboard rentals — but will also be used to check-in people taking the zipline tour. DeSpain said ziplines have widespread appeal. “You don’t have to be hardcore super fit. If you have a sense of adventure, and basic strength and mobility, then most people can do it,” she said. Tours will be fully guided, with staff on hand to prepare riders for the tour, handle the equipment and gear, and serve as guides for the
zipline experience. “In Alaska we had two people in their 90s who even did the tour,” she recalled. Safety is a serious concern, she said. She noted that during the company’s decade of operations in Alaska, they didn’t have a single insurance claim or incident. The DeSpains hope to have the business up and running by spring. A public hearing on the zipline proposal isn’t planned, but the city is accepting comments on the couple’s application through Dec. 28. DeSpain said the couple will maintain an emphasis on serving the community. The business isn’t aiming to capture tourists already coming to the island. “If tourists were the main thing we were after, we would be in a different market,” she said. “We’re not doing this to be a big, money-making adventure,” she explained. “It’s purely because we’re raising our daughter here. We generally would like to see more fun outdoor activities that are family friendly on the island.” “This is our passion; this is what we do. It just seems like the perfect fit,” she said. DeSpain encouraged those who want to know more about ziplines or their proposed tour to contact the business at info@bainbridge outfitters.com.

Around the Island FORT WARD BAKERY
Fort Ward group earns state grant The Fort Ward Community Hall project has been awarded a $1,000 grant from the Washington Trust for Historic Preservation. The grant was given from the trust’s Valerie Sivinski Washington Preserves Fund, which promotes historic preservation “where it really happens: at the community level.” Awards are given in the name of Valerie Sivinski, a preservationist who died in October 2000 while performing preservation-related work. Sivinski was a longtime WTHP board member who served as president in the early 1990s. Chris Moore, WTHP executive director, noted the demonstrated level of community support and coordination for the Fort Ward Community Hall project as key factors in the grant committee’s decision to award funding. “Funds from our Sivinski Grant Program are often used to assist with projects aimed at re-purposing historic structures for new uses,” Moore said. “With the community hall project, the Friends of Fort Ward have thoughtfully and comprehensively envisioned a future for the building that is entirely compatible with its former role as a bakery.” Other projects earning Sivinski grants announced last week include the 1926 fishing vessel Commencement built in Gig Harbor, the 1866 Haller House in Coupeville, and the 1880 Kirkman House in Walla Walla. In total, nine projects across the state received $10,000 in funding through the Sivinski Grant Program. The grants were awarded Dec. 8 at the trust’s annual holiday gala at the historic StimsonGreen Mansion in Seattle. Douglas Crist, Friends of Fort Ward board member, thanked the WTHP for the Sivinski grant funding. “To receive funding from a statewide organization is a real honor,” Crist said. “The Fort Ward Community Hall will serve residents of the island, but restoring the bakery building serves the larger goal of preserving Washington history and letting our heritage sites tell their stories.” The project will see restoration of the historic brick bakery building on Evergreen Drive, constructed in 1910 as part of the Army Coast Artillery Corps installation at Fort Ward. The building was repurposed as a power station to support the fort’s Naval Radio Station during World War II. It became a private residence after the fort was decommissioned in 1960. The restored building will
include an 1,100-square-foot central hall for meetings and classes, with an adjacent kitchen facility. It will join Seabold Hall, Island Center Hall and Camp Yeomalt among local historic buildings that have been preserved for public use. Kitsap County (Fort Ward) Sewer District No. 7, which purchased the building in 2007, will maintain ownership and keep a small corner office for management of its utility operations. The rest of the building will be managed and programmed by the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District under an interlocal agreement. Fundraising for the restoration project is ongoing, and community groups and potential donors can arrange tours of the building by emailing fort wardhall@gmail.com. More information can be found online at www.fortward hall.org.

Man charged for selling hot laptop A 34-year-old Bainbridge Island man was charged with second-degree trafficking in stolen property after police claimed he sold an Apple MacBook Air laptop to a Bremerton pawn shop that was stolen during a Bainbridge car prowl. Zachary Joseph Nelson was charged with the felony in Kitsap County District Court on Friday, Dec. 4. According to court documents, the laptop was reported stolen on Oct. 30 after a Bainbridge resident said it had been taken, along with a briefcase that had been left inside a vehicle that was parked at his house on Falk Road. The computer was valued at $1,000. Police later learned the stolen computer had been sold at the Cash America store in Bremerton on Nov. 23, and Nelson had been paid $120 for the laptop. An officer checked the laptop the next day and found that personal identification had been removed, but some files and WiFi log-in sessions still contained the owner’s name. The owner came to the Bainbridge police station on Nov. 25 and said the laptop that had been recovered from the Cash America store was the one stolen from his vehicle. Officers contacted Nelson just before 12:30 a.m. Dec. 4 at the Clearwater Casino. Nelson allegedly told police that he had traded a tablet computer for the laptop from a person named “Sheila,” but did not know her last name or phone number.

The Fort Ward Community Hall was one of nine projects statewide to be honored with WTHP grants.
He also told police that he didn’t steal the laptop, but an officer said he was not being arrested for the theft but for possessing and selling stolen property. Conviction of second-degree possession of stolen property can result in a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. KITSAP SUPERIOR COURT
Plea deal pushed back for ex-teacher A plea deal is still in the works for a former Bainbridge High teacher accused of having an inappropriate relationship with one of her students. Jessica Marie Fuchs, 27, a firstyear biology teacher at BHS, was charged earlier this year with two felonies — first-degree sexual misconduct with a minor and tampering with a witness — and the gross misdemeanor of communication with a minor for immoral purposes. Authorities allege that Fuchs had a sexual relationship with one of her students, then tried to cover up the relationship after authorities learned about it in February. Fuchs appeared in Kitsap County Superior Court on Nov. 16 for a hearing on a plea deal that would see her change her plea to guilty, and allow her to gain a “special sex offender sentencing alternative,” which would include treatment and a suspended sentence instead of a possible prison term between 22 to 29 months. The hearing only lasted minutes, however, as attorneys acknowledged a pre-sentence investigation had not been
completed and wouldn’t be finished until mid December. Fuchs’ legal counsel has asked that the change of plea occur at the same time as sentencing. The hearing on the change of plea was postponed until Dec. 28, and the trial date has also been set back to Jan. 4. The Bainbridge Island School District suspended Fuchs after the allegations came to light and later notified her that her teaching contract would not be renewed. She no longer lives on Bainbridge Island. COBI
City to form task force for utility issue Bainbridge Island City Manager Doug Schulze is creating a task force to help with a study of the feasibility of starting a Bainbridge owned-and-operated electric utility. Islanders have been gathering signatures for a petition in recent months to gauge support for an island-based power company that would replace Puget Sound Energy. City officials said Schulze is looking for volunteers to assist with the development of a “request for proposals,” consultant selection, and report review for a study that will consider the viability of a city-run electric utility. The task force would be comprised of eight to 10 members of the community, with volunteers preferably having backgrounds in utility finance, management, engineering or utility law. The task force will meet one to two times per month for
approximately seven months. Interested individuals should send an email with resume to Schulze no later than Friday, Jan. 8. During its meeting on Nov. 17, the city council directed the city manager to draft a request for proposals for the completion of a study analyzing the viability of forming a municipally operated utility on Bainbridge Island. The discussion regarding creation of a publicly-owned electric utility was initiated by Island Power, a local organization formed for the purpose of promoting the creation of a publicly-owned power company. In response to the input received from Island Power and many community members, the council initially discussed the topic during its Oct. 6 meeting, where they asked for a plan that would provide the council and community with comprehensive information to help make a decision on electric power service on Bainbridge Island. City officials said that following the October meeting, information was gathered through discussions with electric utility general managers, legal counsel specializing in electric utility issues, Puget Sound Energy and consultants. Based on these conversations, the city said, it was determined that there are three general areas of study or assessment recommended: financial acquisition cost (including funding options, cost of service, and a rate study), engineering capacity (including transmission, energy efficiency and renewable resources plan, conservation potential assessment), and legal process for acquisition of the system.

Taylor is Metro League’s ‘Athletic Director of the Year’ BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge High School Athletic Director Kaycee Taylor has been chosen as the latest recipient of the Metro League’s Athletic Director of the Year award, school officials announced Monday. The annual awardee is selected by a vote of all athletic directors throughout the league. It is a reflection of Taylor’s tireless work with all sports programs at the school, BHS Principal Duane Fish said. “We are proud to call Mr. Taylor our AD,” Fish added. The Metro League, often cited as one of the most competitive in the state, is made up of 17 schools. “I feel both honored and humbled that my fellow ADs voted for me to represent the Metro League with this recognition,” Taylor said. “When I think about the caliber of people in the league, the schools they represent, and the fact that Metro produces so many state cham-
pions in all of the sports, I know what a great honor it is to be chosen by my peers. “Each league in the state puts forward the name of one of their own to go to the next level for recognition,” he added. “In our case, that would be Sea-King District, and then finally to state to determine the AD of the Year for all of Washington at the annual conference in Spokane in the spring; while it is exciting to think about those recognitions, the Metro League ADs work so closely together that having those people choose me is honestly what really counts.” Taylor said he had no idea whatsoever that he was the frontrunner for the award. “When the nominees were read at the last meeting I thought there was little chance I would win,” Taylor admitted. “The other ADs had more experience in the league or their schools have multiple state championship titles, so I figured I was a long shot at best.” Taylor added that his selection echoes a larger

Looking better, despite defeat, in boys loss to O’Dea BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Luciano Marano | Bainbridge Island Review
BHS junior guard Marcus Clyde drives the ball down the court early in Tuesday’s game against O’Dea. Despite better play overall, the Spartans were bested 68-63.
Like a great movie with a disappointing ending (I’m looking at you, “Signs”) Tuesday night’s home court varsity basketball matchup between the Spartans and the visiting squad from O’Dea had some great moments. But not quite enough of them. The island team was defeated 68-63 after leading, falling behind, staging a lightning-quick comeback and then falling short in the finale. The contest was marked by improved cohesion among the Spartan squad, BHS Head Coach Steve Haizlip said, as well as improved consistency, focus and communication. “I feel about as good as you can when you lose,” Haizlip said afterward. It was a victory in itself, he added, that the Spartans were able to keep O’Dea’s Fighting Irish to only 68 points, when they had been averaging 88 per game so far this year. The entire game was incredibly tight, with neither team breaking away in any quarter. The Irish towered over the Spartans on the court — only one player on the squad did not exceed 6 feet, and many were pushing 7. Things weren’t looking good in the first half, which closed with the Spartans down 36-29.
O’Dea started to roll and pulled away by five after the first quarter, and also outscored BHS 18-16 in the second. But in the third, the Spartans came back like a fresh team and quickly chopped away at the deficit. They outscored their guests for the first and only time (17-14) before an incredibly even fourth (18-17 O’Dea) brought the night to a close. The comeback was the result of a lot of things being stressed in practice lately coming together at once, the coach said. “We’ve been challenging them to play consistently and play hard and get extra possessions — and we did,” Haizlip said. “That was the difference [in the second half]. We got extra possessions. We had Sawyer [Conrad] and Brendan [Burke] and Miles [Gori] and Eric [White] crashing the boards like we hadn’t seen before. “I’m not happy we lost,” the coach added. “But, I’m happy with the level of play. I think they really stepped it up in the second half.” Burke led the night in points. In fact, he was way out in front, finishing the game with 34 to his credit. The next highest scorer was O’Dea’s Michael Carter, with 14. Rounding out the top Spartan offensive efforts, Conrad chipped in 11 points, and TURN TO O’DEA | A18

both White and Marcus Clyde each managed seven. The loss, their third in a row, brought the Spartans’ overall season record to 2-3. The island team’s last win came on Dec. 5, against Emerald Ridge at Auburn Riverside High School during the Tipoff Classic. The Spartans are looking ahead, however, and not back. “We’re going to take the positives from this game and move forward,” Haizlip said. “Losing doesn’t feel good, but, in Metro, it’s a grind.

adding that ferry travel time is great for that type of thing. “Their support and encouragement were tremendous,” Taylor said. “All of the league ADs really care about each other. Our schools compete like crazy against each other and all schools want their teams to win, but every single AD in the league wants what is best for all kids at every league school and we look out for each other, too.” Taylor said the award reaffirmed the work he’d done at the school. “I like to think this job matters to what is happening here at BHS and that in some way I am making a positive impact on student-athletes and the community,” he said. “It is much harder to see that when I am not interacting with kids on a daily basis like I did as a teacher. At the same time, I think our community should be very proud of our teams, and see the work of the coaches, support staff [and] admin. And my role as the AD is to create a long-term, sustainable,
vibrant, healthy and competitive program that will last much longer than any individual involved.” The former social studies teacher said that time will be the true test of any progress he has made during his tenure as athletic director. “When I look at all of the pictures, trophies, banners and the recognition of our teams on campus, I want that to continue for as long as possible with or without me. “Athletics provides space, opportunities and challenges for people to be part of something bigger than themselves,” he added. “I hope I can continue to contribute to that here at BHS now and into the future.” Taylor will continue as athletic director, he added, saying people will still see him at school, games and meetings unless he has a medical appointment or needs rest. A GoFundMe account has been set up to raise financial support for Taylor and his family. In just 13 days, the campaign has received 218 individual contributions amounting to nearly $22,000 for Taylor’s treatment. To contribute, visit www.gofundme.com/ BHSTeamTaylor.

BIDC divers earn medals in Oregon
Spartans win the day in gymnastics
BEAVERTON, Oregon Seven divers from the Bainbridge Island Dive Club competed at the 2015 Northwest Holiday Classic in Beaverton, Oregon and brought back a busload of medals. The Northwest Holiday Classic, held Dec. 5-6 and hosted by the Tualatin Hills Dive Club, was the first dive meet for three new divers: Brian Taylor, Morgan Dunscombe and Mia Alpaugh. Lead by coach Chris Miller and four experienced divers — Carter Wolff, Brit Hepworth, Henry Sauerman and Bryn Tiernan — the Bainbridge Island Dive Club repeatedly made their way to the podium to accept their medals. In the 16- to 18-yearold JO 3-meter event, Brit Hepworth dove her way to a third-place finish. In the 11-and-under JO 1-meter event, Bryn Tiernan won the event and Mia Alpaugh came in eighth. In the Future Champions Level 6 event on the 3-meter board, Alpaugh won the event. In the FC Level 3 event on the 3-meter board, Morgan Dunscombe came in fifth place. In the FC Level 6, 1-meter event, she came in second. In the JO 3-meter event, Bryn Tiernan won second place.

Marcus Clyde led the scoring game for the Spartans, ending the night with nine points. Miles Gori added eight and Sawyer Conrad chipped in four as well. The non-league loss left Bainbridge with an even 2-2 overall season record and the third-place spot in the Metro Mountain division, behind Seattle Prep (1-0) and Eastside Catholic (1-0).

BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge Spartans won their home-opening meet in girls gymnastics late last week, prevailing against both Roosevelt and Chief Sealth. BHS finished first with a score of 148.85. Roosevelt followed with 137.4 and Chief Sealth was third, 108.7. Bainbridge had multiple top-five finishers in multiple events. Emma Chee won in bars and floor, while teammate Briana Bruyere was first on beam. “They had a good meet,” said Spartan Coach Cindy Guy. Scores and routines are improving, she said. The team scored 140 in its first meet, and had set a goal of 142 for their home kickoff. The Spartans rolled past that by well over six points. The Spartans are doing better on bars, Guy said, and staying on beam, mostly, though vault scores are down a bit, despite the girls throwing the same vaults. There’s one obvious reason for the higher score overall: the rise in start values for the BHS gymnasts. Credit the modifications made in the difficulty level of the Spartans’ routines. “We were really pleased with the changes that we made in practice,” Guy said. TURN TO ROUNDUP | A19

Bright lights and big smiles BAINBRIDGE - There were smiles all around on Wednesday, Dec. 2 when Bainbridge Island Girls Lacrosse hosted the first LAX Under The Lights. The event was held at the stadium at Bainbridge High for girls of all ages interested in finding out more about lacrosse. Twenty-five girls, grades third through eighth, participated in fun and games, led by BHS varsity lacrosse captains Robin Hilderman, Amy Willerford and Sonia Olson. Participants warmed up with the high school players, played the ever-popular “shipwreck” game, and had their shots on goal clocked by a radar gun. The three fastest shots among age divisions belonged to: Avery Pujolar (grades 3-4), Maggie Reibsamen (grades 5-6) and Kendall Havill (grades 7-8). They received special prizes of vintage lacrosse jerseys. All participants received a BIGL T-shirt. The biggest hit of the evening was a cardboard cut-out of varsity coach, Tami Tommila. Tommila couldn’t be part of the
event since it would be a violation of league rules to be present with her high school players with their lacrosse sticks in-hand. BIGL decided that a cardboard cut-out of the Washington Hall of Fame coach would be the next best thing and sure enough, it was! Registration is now open for youth and high school teams; visit www. bainbridgegirlslacrosse. com to find out how to be a part of this winning island tradition.
Spartans advance more to state meet SEATTLE - Eight for state. The Bainbridge Spartans notched state-qualifying times in eight events as BHS beat Roosevelt 114-65 in boys swimming and diving late last week. The lopsided match at Evans Pool in Seattle saw the Spartans speed past the entry mark for the 3A state championships in the 200-yard freestyle, 200-yard individual medley, 50-yard freestyle, 100-yard butterfly, 100-yard freestyle, 500yard freestyle, 100-yard backstroke and 100-yard breaststroke. In the 200-yard free, Parker Bushey swam to first place with a state time of 1:51.89. Teammate Henry Bacon was second in 2:03.77, and also advanced to state. (The qualifying time is 2:06.20). Sam Alpaugh and Adrien Chaussabel also earned a shot at state in the 200-yard IM. Alpaugh won the race in 2:16.56, and Chaussabel was second in 2:18.37.
(The qualifying time is 2:23.20). In the 50-yard free, Andy Yalung was first in 24.36, and fellow Spartan Miles Hogger was third in 25.25. Both were state-qualifying times (the 3A mark is 25.30). Bainbridge also saw state-worthy swims in the 100-yard butterfly from Jem Bullock, who won in 57.59, and Sam Chapman, who took third place in 1:02.68. (The qualifying time is 1:04.50). In the 100-yard free, Bushey also qualified for the state championships by passing the state mark of 57.50 with a 50.75 finish against Roosevelt, where Bushey came in second. Bacon was fourth, with a time of 55.22. Bullock and Chapman won first and second in the 500-yard free, with Bullock winning the race in 5:22.31, and Chapman clocking in at 5:25.00. (The qualifying time is 5:39.00). Alpaugh claimed second place, and a state berth, in the 100-yard backstroke with a time of 58.50, well in front of the qualifying time of 1:06.90. The Spartans took first, second and third in the 100-yard breaststroke with state times from Chaussebel (1:08.74), Cole Sander (1:09.24) and Jack Kapel (1:10.78).

Rough Riders cruise past BHS BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge High varsity girls basketball team suf-
fered a lopsided loss at home Wednesday, Dec. 9 against the visitors from Roosevelt High. The final score was 65-26 Roosevelt. The Spartans were outscored every quarter, though admittedly closed the gap as the game went on: 11-5, 23-7, 17-8, 14-6. Perennial scoring machine Taylor Tye led the island squad offensively with eight points. Carly Lant managed five and Katie Usellis chipped in three. The loss at home brought the BHS overall season record to 2-1, earning them the fourth spot in the Metro Mountain Division rankings. The Spartans traveled to play against Garfield Friday, Dec. 11 before returning home to host Holy Names Academy Wednesday, Dec. 16.
Bainbridge falls at home match BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge High varsity wrestling team came up short in its first home match of the season Thursday, Dec. 10, a doubleheader against Chief Sealth and Garfield grapplers. The Spartans first faced off against Sealth, losing 54-22, before making a go against Garfield, who defeated them 42-34. Despite the overall losses, there were several individual Spartans who had standout matches — including some who won both bouts. Against Sealth’s Nathan Perrite in the 132-pound bracket, Cade Topham won in an 11-3 decision. Also in the night’s first match, BHS team co-captain Hague Bush pinned Sealth’s Johnny Banchero in 3:02 to claim a win in the 170-pound bracket. Against Garfield, the solo female Spartan wrestler Rachel Longridge claimed a 9-1 decision win over Logan McCallister in the 106-pound division. Topham again came out on top in the night’s second match, claiming a win by default over Cole Davis in the 132-pound bracket. Bainbridge’s Clay Wren secured the 152-pound spot, pinning Garfield’s Abdikarim Mohamed in 1:57. BHS co-captain Aaron Jumpa followed that win up with one of his own, pinning Garfield’s Mikhail Kamila in just 15 seconds to claim for Bainbridge

the 160-pound bracket. Bush also repeated his early victory, pinning Garfield’s Rogan Zangari in one minute flat in the 170-pound match. Bainbridge also claimed three forfeit wins throughout both matches, and double forfeits negated only two matches total. The Spartans are not slated to wrestle at home again until the annual Island Invitational Tournament on Saturday, Jan. 9.
Epic victory for BHS swimmers BAINBRIDGE - For the first time in recent memory, Bainbridge Island dealt Mercer Island a stunning defeat in boys swimming and diving this week at the Bainbridge Aquatics Center. Mercer Island has been dominating in the sport in recent years, with six 3A state titles since 2006 — and second-place finishes in every year the crown eluded the islanders. The Spartans prevailed, however, with a 116-69 win. Equally fantastic, though, were the state-qualifying performances for two Spartan teams in the 200-yard medley relay, 100-yard butterfly, 100-yard backstroke and 400-yard freestyle relay.

BHS co-captain Hague Bush pinned Chief Sealth’s Johnny Banchero in 3:02 to claim a win in the 170-pound bracket during the first match of last Thursday’s meet.
In the 200 medley relay, the Spartan A team of Garrett Waite, Kevin Houseman, Makai Ingalls and Andy Yalung placed first with a state time of 1:40.81, a nice improvement over their seed time of 1:45.00. The Spartan B Relay team of Sam Alpaugh, Aron Markow, Jem Bullock and Aidan Wagner placed second and also punched
their ticket to state by finishing in 1:44.06. (The state 3A qualifying mark is 1:44.50). In the 100 fly, Garrett Waite won the race with a qualifying time of 53.87. Ingalls backed up his fine showing in the 200 medley relay with a win in the 100-yard backstroke. He took first, and qualified for state, in 56.85.

Holy Names steals split-second, single-point win over Spartans BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Call the police! The Spartans have been robbed. During Wednesday night’s game against the visitors from Holy Names Academy, the Bainbridge High varsity girls basketball team found themselves going quickly from being ahead a full 10 points (33-23) at the start of the final quarter, to being ahead by only four points with less than a minute to go — and to finish with finding their hoop dreams stolen. The game’s final score was 45-44. It was a shocking and dispiriting outcome for the island team. The guests led, admittedly, at first — 5-4 with about five minutes left in the first quarter. But Bainbridge wasn’t having it, and regained the lead 17-13 by the start of the second. The Spartans pulled further ahead then, leading 20-15 by the end of the half. The third saw Holy Names start on the comeback trail, but Bainbridge managed to stay ahead to lead going into the final minutes. Then the fourth quarter

go (trimming the Spartans’ advantage to 44-40). A quick score later, and the Cougars were down by just two points with about 20 seconds to go. Holy Names then managed to snag the lead with a big three-pointer with less than 10 seconds left, and to hold it long enough to secure the win — clutching

a jaw-dropping win from the mouth of what had seemed an almost certain defeat. The Spartans were visibly disappointed, and BHS Head Coach Nicole Hebner declined to comment on the loss. Assistant Coach Liz McCloskey, however, said that the whole team was looking forward to “a fresh start”
in the next game after such a “frustrating loss.” The loss — their third in a row — left the Spartans with a 1-4 overall season record and the sixth spot in the Metro Mountain Division standings. Serial Spartan standout Taylor Tye led the team offensively, finishing Wednesday’s game with 14 points.
Katie Usellis managed 10 points as well. Kiera Havill contributed eight. The island squad will travel to play Seattle Prep Friday, Dec. 18. The Spartans will return home to host Cleveland High Friday, Jan. 8, after two more road games in between.

Cox leads BHS at state, sprints to Seattle Marathon BY PAUL BENTON Contributor
At the prestigious Border Clash at Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon, Bainbridge High senior Ryan Cox helped the All-State Washington Cross Country Team defeat the elite Oregon team. Cox earned the entry honor at the state cross country championship in early November, while leading his Bainbridge team to an impressive seventh place finish. A week after finishing sixth at the Metro Championship, the Spartan harriers earned their first trip to state since Cox’s freshman year by moving up to fifth in the two-league SeaKing District, overtaking Metro rivals Garfield, Franklin and perennial XC power Bishop Blanchet in the deep mud of the Lake Sammamish 5K course. A week later, at the state meet on the firm grass of
Pasco’s Sun Willows golf course, the Spartan varsity surged past both close rival Nathan Hale and SeaKing runner-up Juanita, proving themselves the fastest, deepest cross country team Bainbridge has ever fielded. Six of the seven varsity runners set personal records at state. Cox’s 15:46 5K — a 16 second PR — smashed both the Bainbridge all-time 5K record (Nolan Amy’s 15:57 in 2003) and the BHS record at the state meet (Keith Carlson’s 16:15 in 2014), as well as his own BHS freshman record at state (16:36 in 2012). Senior Devon Reynolds used a powerful kick to finish in 16:13, a 38 second PR and 52 seconds faster than his time at state last year. Just as amazing was freshman Sebastian Belkin, a novice runner who won the Metro Championship JV race in 17:23, then ran 16:18

arm. Hard-running senior captains Johan Griesser and Ben Scott were close behind in 16:51/16:52 (a 14 second PR for Scott). Junior Cole Brundige, improving his PR by 24 seconds to 17:01, showed the teams depth by finishing as the third fastest No. 7 runner in the race. Overall, the top five team average of 16:23 obliterated the previous school record, the 2012 team’s 16:51. “Our goal was to make the top 10,” explained head coach Anne Howard Lindquist. “Several places above the team’s ranking going in. We wanted to show we belonged at state, beat some teams ahead of us at district, and take advantage of the fast grass surface — so unlike the Sammamish mud. Seventh place was amazing, and the guys all put down their best race ever to get it done.” A large group of JV runners and members of the girls XC team joined varsity alternates Will Gleason, Jared Cordell and Wyatt Longley as team supporters on the trip to Pasco. A week later, eager to keep racing, 26 BHS harriers drove to Boise to compete as a post-season team in the Nike Cross Regional Championship. Top team
honors went to senior Johan Griesser, taking 17th place in his division of over 200 runners and a seventh place trophy for the girls’ varsity team. When the XC season had wrapped up for BHS, some continued to extend fall competition. Cox ran a PR 15:44 at the Bainbridge Turkey Trot 5K, then, three days later, ran his first marathon, finishing sixth overall in the Seattle Marathon in 2:42:05. That’s 7 minutes faster than the previous best marathon time this year for any runner under 19 in the state. His teammate Jared Cordell also ran his first marathon (3:32, seventh place in his age group), while veteran coach Mike Shiach added another marathon to his long resume. Fifteen other high school XC runners ran the half marathon, most of them for the first time: Johan Griesser, Cole Brundige, Will Gleason, Dmitry Chandler, Kawin Nikomborirak, Nick Shiach, Jack Friedman, Matthew Carlson, Jacob Carlson, Julia Denlinger, Emma Goidel, Lydia Goss, Vega Piper, Anna Banyas and Jennifer Friedman — plus coach Anne Howard Lindquist and her daughter Signe, now a member of the Whitman cross country team.

BIFC U18 boys advance with win BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge Island Football Club U18 boys team will
compete in the quarter-finals of the Washington Youth Soccer Recreational Cup, following a recent win over Jefferson County SC at Battle Point Park. The opening minutes saw both teams create scoring opportunities. Bainbridge opened the scoring in the fifteenth minute through a shot from Asher Bedell from outside the box.
Only two minutes had passed when a quick combination with Byron Alvarez and Evan Hanson fed Bedell for his second goal of the game. With Bainbridge’s confidence rising, Nate Marx playing center defense, flanked by Ian Mackin and Cole Schardein, won the ball, carried it forward and played an excellent pass to Wilson Donohue to
make it 3-0 after 28 minutes of play. Bainbridge would continue making attacking runs through Ruark Bohonos, Jonathan Owen and Harrison Hung, with Owen and Hung scoring in the second half. Head Coach Mark Hanson has coached the team for five seasons. Visit www.bifc.net for more information.

Village effort underway to help islanders age in place BY JESSICA SHELTON Bainbridge Island Review
There are now more “seniors” than school children. At least, that’s what a graph on the Bainbridge Public Library’s “Public Demographics” page says. In studying U.S. Census data, Rod Stevens found that, between 2000 and 2010, the 60-plus set was the fasting growing population on the island. What’s more, every other age group (under 5, 5 to 17, 18 to 34, 35 to 59) remained nearly stagnant. “Seniors” accounted for 90 percent of the overall growth in population. Several weeks ago, Judy McKenzie shared this statistic at a workshop held at the Waterfront Community Center, attended by 50 or so mostly gray-haired folks. “I think our culture sort of suggests we don’t have a future,” said McKenzie, who is 75. “But the Village is about taking charge.” Founded in 1999 by a group of friends in Central Boston, the Village is a grassroots movement for people who want to age in their own homes and take care of themselves and each other, instead of ending up in retirement communities. Members pay a small fee to be supported by and connected to vetted service providers. By dialing just one number, they gain access to a slew of services — most of them discounted and some of them free — from transportation to health care to companionship. The concept has spread to 200 communities, with another 150 in progress. Island residents have batted the idea around for a few years, but at a community conversation organized by Sue Barrington this past February, it finally picked up steam. Despite gorgeous weather, 70 people showed up, and their chief criticism at the end of the four-hour meeting was that they didn’t have enough time, Barrington said. “Obviously, there was some real meat there,” she added. Intrigued by what they heard, McKenzie and her husband John volunteered to be the planning facilitators for the project. With their joint backgrounds in strategic planning and organizational develop-

Companionship is one of the services that would be available to village members. ment — the McKenzies had a consulting business for 10 years, and before that, Judy led a nonprofit with a $5 million budget — she figured they could help make the village a reality. Their first task is to find out if there is enough support for the project, which “is not a foregone conclusion,” McKenzie said. A steering committee of 18, co-led by Steve Walker and Sandy White, is in charge of developing a work plan and determining the project’s sustainability. They’re joined by representatives from Housing Resources Bainbridge, Island Volunteer Caregivers and even the city.
To gauge interest, the committee has started to distribute needs assessments, which will be followed by listening tours and interviews with the boards of existing nonprofits. “We’re really trying to figure out how we can do this right,” McKenzie said. She can think of plenty of reasons that Bainbridge is ripe for a village: an aging population, a culture of leadership, a strong network of existing services. “The engagement of retired people here and other service agencies is really quite incredible,” McKenzie said. “That might lead you to say that we don’t need a
village because we already have one,” she added. “But a village would help strengthen [the community]. It would also help to coordinate the services, increase access and redefine the notion of asking for help. “Already, Bainbridge is a very caring community. The village would just stimulate more and more neighbor-to-neighbor kind of help,” she said. If the steering committee can establish a broad support base, its goal is to launch a Bainbridge village within three years, with a business plan in place by December 2016. Meanwhile, the brand, the village’s mission and values and membership logistics are some of the major details that still need to be worked out. Typically, membership fees constitute half of a village budget, with grants and donations providing the other half. The average village serves 135 members, who pay anywhere between $75 and $1,200 (per couple) annually, McKenzie said. She’s not sure where the fee will fall on Bainbridge, but stresses that there will be plenty of subsidies for low-income members. The ultimate figure will depend on the breadth of services and the number of support staff provided; most villages rely on a mix of paid staff
and volunteers. McKenzie hopes the village concept will appeal to younger residents and their families as a way to pay it forward. “It’s the notion that ‘OK, I’m healthy and strong right now and I’m in the stage that I’m volunteering and I want to be a member of this organization, but five to 10 years from now, I may need the service,’” she explained. But it’s also likely that there will be ways for younger members to benefit immediately. Time banking, or organizing members around the sharing of talents and services, is a big portion of what some villages do, Barrington pointed out.
An older member with a bad hip might not be able to walk her dog or change her light bulb, but she may be fluent in German and love to bake cookies. “Everybody’s time in a time bank is equal,” she added. “It’s not a barter system, but a very flexible scaffolding upon which you formalize community relationships. At the end of the day, this is just a community building tool. People can find the support they need and have genuine, meaningful opportunities to share their gifts.” For more information, visit www.bivillage.org.

LAST SHOP STANDING
Silver Screen Video is Kitsap’s last movie rental shop BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Cut! That’s a wrap. Bainbridge Island’s Silver Screen Video is now the last of its kind in Kitsap County. Amidst a smattering of Redbox kiosks and a few grocery stores keeping their hand slightly in the game, the iconic island shop stands alone as the only dedicated movie rental locale in town, the sole survivor in a marginalized marketplace left decimated by the proliferation of digital services and the domination of giant online services. Owned and operated by Colin Randall, a former staff member, the store was set to close last year before an outcry of protest from its fanatic fans forced the previous owner to reconsider. Ultimately, the store stayed open, but much of the extra inventory was sold off and the shop was downsized to its current location (325 Tormey Lane NE, Suite 143). That part of the story, however, doesn’t seem quite as well-known. “About half of our existing customers never came to the new location,” Randall said. “So, he was going to close it for good. It was a matter of the video store going out of business or somebody else taking it over.” And, like the hero in any classic cliffhanger from Hollywood, Randall showed up in the nick of time to save the day. “I’m glad I did,” he said. “Because it was a close call [to] not having one in the entire county. “There were independent stores all over Kitsap County, and they’ve

He’s also, however, a realist. “We’ve lost business — and we still lose business — consistently, year after year,” he said.
“I have a schedule. I agreed with myself to run it for five years [and] we’re a year and a half in. If it goes longer than that, I’d be happy to stay open.” The new owner inherited an admittedly bleak picture when he took over, but things got even worse almost right away, when the Kitsap Regional Library, who had
purchased in bulk used copies of new releases from the shop for distribution to all the county’s branches for 20 years, suddenly canceled their contract. The library opted instead, Randall said, to purchase its DVDs from an East Coast company that could also provide cataloging services, thus presumably eliminating
the need to pay someone here to do it. “It was a big deal,” Randall said. “It was a substantial portion of our monthly income. We literally lost an employment position here.” The losses have since leveled off. He’s not, however, making long TURN TO LAST | A37
A class in cannabis: Paper & Leaf hosts monthly education trade show BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Decades of prohibition fell by the wayside last year, and from the dust rose the recreational cannabis industry, springing to life in four states with shops, growers and vendors scrambling to set up and meet the veracious demand. And there was much rejoicing. There was also much confusion. Not about the legalities of the industry, which were quite clearly reported. But, actually about the product itself. Especially among the older crowd, most of whom
had not used pot in decades — if ever. Other users were so used to obtaining their product via other channels that they distrusted the new legal shops. Still others, pot newbies, were curious, but too intimidated by their own lack of knowledge to wander in and check it out. For all those reasons, Steven Kessler said, he and Brendan Hill, the founders of Bainbridge’s first and only recreational cannabis shop Paper & Leaf, decided to host an educational outreach event. A cannabis class. A ganja guide. A chronic college.
The first Cannabis 101, as they call it, was held in November. It was slightly more formally organized and saw surprisingly large crowds, Kessler said. They refined the December event. It became more of a trade show than a seminar, and featured several guest vendors as well, thus giving the customers who are ready for it an advanced cannabis class as well as a user-friendly introduction. “The people who wanted the education were able to get it,” Kessler said.

It’s a low pressure, inclusive atmosphere. “I can guide people to the right products when they describe [what they want],” Kessler said. “There’s been no science. There’s been TURN TO CANNABIS | A37

term entrepreneurial plans. Make money. Lose money. It’s all the same to Randall — for a few more years anyway. “What I’ve done is I’ve bought myself a job,” he said. “Normally, people give you a job. They don’t ask you to pay for it. I’ve always wanted to run a small business and every time I tried to think of one, all I could think of was the video store. “We all have to work for a living, but I think people should remember that they have a choice about what they can do,” he added. “I just don’t understand people that hate their job. There’re a lot of options in America. Why not pick something you enjoy, even if you don’t make very much money doing it? The money you make in a job is only part of your compensation. The other part of it is the satisfaction and the pleasure of going to
work in the morning.” Silver Screen Video has survived on Bainbridge due to a combination of unique circumstances, Randall explained. The store must compete with the big boys in three key areas: convenience, selection and experience. “The competition beats us with convenience,” he said. “But you don’t get a lot of selection, and there’re other drawbacks.” And the experience of browsing in a real video store, Randall said, just can’t be duplicated online. “There’s something about browsing,” he said wistfully. “We’ve got all of this great collection that you can’t get anywhere else.” The shop has been tailored over the years to cater specifically to Bainbridge Island movie lovers, who, Randall said, have very demanding tastes. “I think it’s the clientele on Bainbridge, their tastes, that make the difference,” he explained. “I don’t think we’d be able to survive if we just had more of the middleof-the-road clientele.

When most 14-year-olds hop on their bikes, they maybe grab a helmet and then they’re on their way. Sebastian Belkin gears up like a gladiator. Of course, his ride’s usually a little more intense than a quick jaunt ‘round the neighborhood. Belkin, 14, a freshman at Bainbridge High School, is a rising star in the extreme sport of competitive down-
hill mountain bike racing. Recently, he concluded his first serious season on the competitive circuit by bringing home the first-place medal from the Northwest Cup, the premiere mountain bike racing event in the region, in Category 2, boys age 15 to 18, at Stevens Pass. Downhill mountain biking — or “DH” — is a specific kind of bike race that is run on steep, rough tracks and

Bart’s stomach was bloody and there was a puncture wound behind his hind leg; Rasham surmised that the coyote had gripped him in his jaw, and that the momentum, from being carried, is what caused his little neck to break. “I never thought that this was a possibility; never did it even cross my mind that it would be a possibility,” Rasham said later.

The troupe’s repertoire is primarily from Zimbabwe, with influences from throughout Africa, in addition to original compositions. Anzanga plays using eight marimbas—three sopranos, three tenors, a baritone, and a bass—and hoshos, or gourd shakers. The marimbas are hand-crafted xylophones made from various hardwoods.

Joseph “Robert” Miller June 21, 1921 - December 6, 2015 Father Joseph Miller, also known as Robert Miller, passed away on Dec. 6, 2015 in Seattle. He was 94. Father Joseph was born Robert Stanford Miller on June 21, 1921 in Independence, Kansas to Charles Marvin and Hattie Paul Miller. He grew up in Topeka, Kansas surrounded by a large extended family. He graduated from Highland Park High School in Topeka in 1939, and completed his undergraduate studies in music, philosophy, education and psychology at the Kansas State Teachers College, the Juilliard School of Music, and Conception College. He received his doctoral degree in education at the University of Kansas. During his many years of distinguished work as an academic and psychologist, he held counseling positions at the University of California, Los Angeles, Washington State University and Central Washington University, where he directed the Student Counseling Center, served as Dean of Student Services, and worked in the testing and evaluation center. Robert took the Christian name of Joseph when he converted to the Orthodox Christian faith in 1973. With the blessing of the Holy Synod of the Old Calendar Orthodox Church of Greece, Joseph was ordained to the Priesthood, at 80 years of age, by the retired Metropolitan (then Archbishop) of Etna. He was assigned as assistant pastor at the Church of the Dormition of the Theotokos in Port Townsend, where he served for some seven years, prior to the closing of the parish. Fr. Joseph was amazingly unique; a true Renaissance man who was curious about nearly everything and had many interests in his long life. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Barbara Aly Miller; sons Karl Miller of Los Angeles, California and Paul Miller (Karen), of Columbus, Ohio; daughter Anne Strandoo (Robert) of Seattle; niece Katherine Aly Stavrinou, of Drammen, Norway; and adored grandchildren Robert, Genny, Erik, Claire and Grace. Dad, you were extraordinarily special to each of us. Your unfailing love and support was and will always be an immeasurable gift.

She was 27 years old. Emelie grew up on Bainbridge Island, graduating from Bainbridge High School in 2006. Emelie was devoted to her family and her brothers Christopher and Michael held her heart. She had a passion for life and an adventurous spirit. Emelie loved spending time with her friends cheering on the Seahawks, off-roading in her Subaru, snowboarding and dirt biking. She really loved dogs and was looking forward to the day when she could have her next four-legged friend. At family gatherings, she brought Olympic-level competitiveness to card games or badminton or whatever game her cousins could talk her into playing with them. Emelie was kind and funny and beautiful in every way people should be beautiful. Emelie leaves behind her cherished mother Jean Hey and Jean’s husband Alan Kleppe, her loving father Mark Durfee and her beloved brothers Christopher and Michael Durfee and Alan’s children Ryan and Tessa Kleppe. Emelie’s extended family includes her Uncle Bud Hey and his son Alex; Uncle Ken Hey (Jennifer) and their children Madeline Emerson and Mark Hey; Uncle James Hey (Michele) and their children Joseph and Rachel; Aunt Bobbi Leahy (Niall Leahy - deceased 1997) and their daughter Shannon; Aunt Jackie Hey Williams (Clarence) and their children Jordan, Lauren and Anna; Aunt Marlene Peters (Mark) and their children James and Breanna; Aunt Madeline Durfee, Uncle Allan Wells (Joanne) and their children Jeff, Dan and David; Aunt Anne Reynoldson and her children Laura, Karl and Craig.

shortage of substitutes. The landscapes that groundskeepers maintain have become more complex and challenging. And, as this crisis has steadily increased, our takehome pay has shrunk, year by year.” Eight others stood up to make the case to the board that classified staff deserve a living wage.
WWW.BAINBRIDGEREVIEW.COM
Ailene Isaf, a para-educator at Sonoji Sakai Intermediate School, recounted the demands of her role and the limited pay that accompanies it. As a member of the Sakai opening team, she starts her day early, securing the grounds while also welcoming the community. She runs a before-school homework club and, after hours of helping students with long division, organization and behavioral issues, she’s hosting an after-school homework club,
too. Technically, it ends at 4 p.m., but there are plenty of days when Isaf stays later, sometimes an hour over, because parents are running late and she doesn’t want to leave children sitting in a dark office by themselves with nobody else in the building. She doesn’t get paid for that time, but even if she did, it wouldn’t amount to much, she said. “I do all this on about what a 12-year-old gets paid to
babysit,” Isaf said, eliciting a big “Amen!” from the crowd. “Unless he or she worked past midnight and then they’d beat me hands-down, believe me.” Add to that the fact that there’s no hope for improvement and the picture is pretty bleak. Isaf is already at the top of her pay scale. “I will never make a penny more than what I make now because I’ve been working here for 17 years,” she said. Considering that many of these roles are also part-time,
Page A43
it’s no surprise that some classified staff have to take on second jobs to support themselves and their families. Marcia Millican, a special education para-professional at Ordway Elementary, said that out of 24 classified employees at Ordway, she knows of at least 10 that also work outside the district. Some of them hoped to show up to the meeting, but couldn’t make it, Millican explained, because they were working. And then there’s the tes-
timony of staff who owe the district money. Stephani Mar, an attendance secretary at Bainbridge High — now into her 20th year with the district — brought her June pay stubs to show the board. She’s elected to be paid on a 10-month basis, meaning health insurance costs for July and August are taken out of her June paycheck, which, accordingly, tends to be the lowest of the year. Since 2010, she’s watched TURN TO CONTRACT | A44

her take-home pay drop from $771 to $690 to $430 to $301. And then, last June, she actually owed the district money. Just a dollar, but Mar finds the trend alarming considering she hasn’t made any changes in the last five years. “My deductions, my benefits, my health coverage — none of that has changed,” Mar explained. “I have done
WWW.BAINBRIDGEREVIEW.COM
nothing to increase them.” Kathleen Abell, a special education parapro at Ordway, found herself in a similar boat. “I work at three schools, and last year, I had to change my medical benefits because I was getting negative paychecks,” she said. “I’ve worked for the district for 20 years.” Associate Superintendent Peter Bang-Knudsen said later he couldn’t speak to Mar or Abell’s situations specifically, but noted that employ-
ees make their own choices when it comes to deductions. “Depending on how many deductions you are taking, it can vary what your actual net pay is,” he explained. He added that rising insurance costs might also account for a diminishing paycheck. The fundamental challenge with raising classified compensation, Bang-Knudsen said, is that the district is underfunded by the state. “Forty-eight percent of our classified positions are not funded by the state — they’re
Friday, December 18, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
funded completely locally,” he said. That’s true for 14 percent of certificated positions, too, he said. “We’re going to give every state-funded employee a 3 percent cost of living adjustment. Well, since we have 48 percent of our classified staff that are not funded by the state, we have to come up with that 3 percent COLA out of our local levy. That’s one of those fundamental unfairness pieces and one of those things that I think make it so
difficult.” The district also has other priorities to consider, BangKnudsen added. “We’re certainly interested in paying our employees more, but we also have to be fiscally prudent and maintain a solid budget that supports all our students.” Still, classified salaries for the district are up to par with those elsewhere on the Peninsula, he said. “It’s our goal to pay competitive salaries compared to surrounding districts. And
we think that overall we have competitive salaries for a classified association.” Bang-Knudsen is optimistic a mutual agreement will be found with the help of a mediator from the state’s Public Employment Relations Commission. “We’ve, overall, got a really positive relationship with our organization,” he said. “I think this was a particularly challenging year but I’m optimistic that with a mediator’s help we will be able to reach a positive outcome.”

Friday, December 18, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
VIGIL CONTINUED FROM A1
Mary Woodward recalled the newspaper’s front-page editorial the day after Pearl Harbor: “We’ve got folks living here who look like the enemy, but we know they’re not. Let’s not go off halfcocked.” Talk of rounding up anyone of Japanese ancestry — including those born here — quickly followed Pearl Harbor, as did President Roosevelt’s signing of Executive Order 9066 in February 1942. By the end of March, 227 island residents were assembled at the Eagledale dock amid a gauntlet of soldiers sent to the island to take them away — part of the first group of nearly 120,000 of Japanese ancestry who were eventually sent to internment camps. Daily newspapers from Seattle to Everett and beyond supported the evacuation of Japanese Americans to the internment camps, with some adding that those taken away would never be welcomed back. Not the Woodwards. The couple stood firm, and continued to call attention to the ongoing injustice as the war continued from the pages of the Review. They also made correspondents out of those sent to the camps, and shared their stories with readers. “Their issue was the Constitution,” Mary Woodward said. But while many in the crowd at the Japanese American Exclusion Memorial were well familiar with the Woodwards’ story, Bainbridge Islanders found a new sense of urgency over the past week in recalling that troubled chapter in American history. A candlelight vigil was hurriedly organized for Monday in response to recent comments by two candidates for president who called for people of Muslim faith to be banned from entering the country. The comments followed the recent terrorist attacks in France and San Bernardino, California. The vigil was organized by Marsha Cutting, who recalled hearing the proposal to ban Muslims and immediately thought of Bainbridge’s own experience with discrimination. “I was literally sick to my stomach. And when I heard a national presidential candidate repeat that sentiment, I really felt like we had to do something,” she said.
Some people may think the idea is abstract, she said. It’s not. “For those of us who live here, it’s real. It happened here. It was neighbors, coworkers, fellow students, friends, who, as you know, were taken away in the space of a week with only what they could carry,” she told the crowd. “Thank you so much for showing up. Thank you for turning out to say, ‘Let it not happen again,’” she said. Clarence Moriwaki, a board member for the Bainbridge Island Japanese American Community, said it was wrong to exclude another class of people from American soil. “We who live on Bainbridge Island must speak up, as it was on our island that the exclusion of islanders of Japanese ancestry — two-thirds of them United States citizens — began,” he said. “Here, from a dock on Eagle Harbor, island families were loaded onto boats for the first leg in their journey to imprisonment. This shameful event is memorialized at the Japanese American Exclusion Memorial at that same spot on Eagle Harbor,” Moriwaki said. “We have seared this occasion in our consciences, and have not forgotten this country’s misguided decision to discriminate against people who merely shared the face of one of our enemy nations during World War II.” “We urge every citizen to remember this tragic event when our nation succumbed to fear, racial prejudice, war hysteria, and a shameful lack of political leadership, and say, ‘Nidoto Nai Yoni’ — let it not happen again,” he said. The discrimination didn’t end with the war, recalled state Rep. Drew Hansen. He recalled how returning Japanese American war veterans came home to find themselves excluded from the island’s veterans organization, so they created their own. He told the crowd of their visits each year to the state capital, and the thunderously warm welcome they receive each time from the legislature. With many supporting the call to ban Muslims, he said, it’s apparent that some have forgotten our country’s history — and not just those in the Republican Party. “It’s not some fringe opinion. It is shared, apparently, by a large number of voters in that party’s presidential primary. And it’s not just one party. You hear the Democratic mayor of Roanoke, Virginia looking

back on the internment of Japanese Americans as a model of for how we should think about dealing with national security,” Hansen said. “It does look like, at least in many places in this country, some people are starting to forget. And it’s very appropriate for us on Bainbridge Island, when people forget, to help them remember,” he said. Organizers of the event
Page A45
read statements of support from U.S. Senator Patty Murray and U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer. Kilmer, during his first term in Congress, helped get a bill passed to rename Bainbridge’s memorial to more fittingly recall the internment of Japanese Americans. “This memorial remembers every man, woman and child interned during World War II who had their
American Dream frozen in time,” Kilmer said in his statement. “This memorial is a testament to how our community will be forever vigilant in fighting prejudice and discrimination. “Our community has not forgotten what happened just a generation ago — when our values as Americans were compromised for a false sense of security in the face of global instability. It’s critical to keep all Americans
safe and secure, but it is also important in times like these to remember our values and to continue to serve as a beacon of freedom for the world. “We are showing that Bainbridge Island, Washington state, and the United States of America will refuse to exclude communities of people just because they practice a certain religion or come from a certain country of origin,” Kilmer added.

For tickets, go to www. admiraltheatre.org or call 360-373-6743. Tower of Power’s musical odyssey began in July 1968 during a band rehearsal at Emilio Castillo’s house in Oakland, California. When baritone saxophonist Stephen “Doc” Kupka auditioned, Castillo’s father called Emilio into the kitchen and offered him the following advice: “Hire that guy, he’s got something.” The next month, Tower of Power began playing gigs and soon became very well known in the San Francisco Bay area.

Cheers to the holidays with affordable NW reds I
f your wallet is feeling a little light from holiday spending, yet you still need to find a few bottles of wine for parties or a midweek meal, then there still are plenty of red wines to be found in the magical $15-and-under category. Larger wine producers tend to dominate our lists of “best buy” wines because they can make wine in larger amounts, thus cutting costs in labor, equipment, grapes and bottles. That certainly is true in this column, with such companies as Ste. Michelle Wine Estates, Precept Wine and Milbrandt Vineyards crafting six of the nine wines reviewed here. All should be easy to track down at your favorite wine merchant. ■ Columbia Crest 2013 Grand Estates Limited Release Gold,
Primarius produces a rare Oregon Pinot Noir that is priced for less than $20
NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
Columbia Valley, $12: This blend of Cabernet Franc and Merlot spent 17 months in 32 percent new French oak. It offers lots of freshly brewed espresso aromas, joined by notes of Chukar Cherry, dried plum and roasted plum. A pour yields rich and dark flavors of milk chocolate, sweet blueberry and raspberry. (13.5 percent alcohol) ■ Ridge Crest 2013 White Bluffs Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $14: This is a lightly oaked Cab with aromas of red currant, Van cherry, fresh hay and drip coffee. Inside, it features flavors of dark blackberry, black currant
and plum, backed by a remarkable mouth feel of flannel-like tannins and a touch of cinnamon spice. (13.5 percent alcohol) ■ Sagelands Vineyard 2013 Merlot, Columbia Valley, $10: Precept rescued this brand, and its example of Merlot offers a mellow nose of milk chocolate, ripe red plum, black cherry and Assam tea. There’s a pleasant and rich approach to the palate, which brings luscious Bing cherry and black
currant flavors, backed by moderate tannins and Marionberry acidity. (13.5 percent alcohol) ■ Chateau Ste. Michelle 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $15: Aromas begin with a stroll through a North African spice market and past an espresso shop as it leads to hints of Hostess Berry Pie, graham cracker and lime peel. On the pour, expect a youthful presentation of dark purple fruit, framed

Give cynicism the boot ... spend time in a garden T
he classic novella, “A Christmas Carol,” by Charles Dickens is always a reminder that the season is not about happiness through buying or hoarding things. Cynical old Ebenezer Scrooge learned the hard way about his miserable existence, which he paid for at the expense of not only himself, but those around him too. It is a classic tale about accumulating wealth that never gratifies; he ended up in a greedy, unsatisfied existence. “A Christmas Carol” has never gone out of print since the time Dickens wrote it. A century and a half later, we still find it on the shelves of our favorite bookstores. The story deeply resonates with our humanity. Back then, the novella came about because of the author’s concerns over the gap between the rich and poor in England and the exploitation of child workers — exploitation that is as real a problem today as it was back when he penned the story. Today, Dickens’ concerns might include our

want to buy happiness, and as cheap as possible, even if keeping the costs down on goods means the exploitation and misery of people on a global scale — all for more stuff, mostly meaningless stuff. We don’t have to choose cynicism. We don’t need to go to the big stores and fight to find a parking space, fight the crowded lines, or fight over goods laid out on the table. Isn’t it strange that shopping at this time of the year contains so many “fight” words? I believe we make the holidays what we want them to be. If I want to take the commercial out of Christmas, I simply step away from the commercial! What will our hearts remember about this holiday season? Most likely, the time we spent together, the family stories, and our connections to friends. Happiness comes wrapped up in the gift of giving of ourselves to others. These are more precious than

any item at a store. In the end, what we regret is time we didn’t spend with loved ones, not what gifts we didn’t give or receive. What has any of this to do with a garden? Spending time with friends and family in a garden decorated for the season I think is a splendid way to take the “fight” out of Christmas. Some of the following gardens charge a fee; however, these are not big commercial operations, and money spent in these places stays within our communities. These gardens are stress-free environments where you become a participant in
the enchanting experience — a great way to unwind with loved ones and reconnect to the magic of the season. Best of all, there is no “bah humbug” in these gardens! ■ Bellevue Botanical Garden brings us the charming Garden d’lights and is worth a trip across the moat. The garden displays use over half-million lights that are put together by volunteers from the community and beyond! Be prepared to ooh and aah over the charming displays. Fee: $5 (no admission fee for children under 10). www.gardendlights. org. ■ Just across the Tacoma Narrows Bridge,
you can enjoy the Point Defiance Zoolights. Another event with lights in the zoo garden, plus the admission fee includes viewing the nocturnal animals, camel rides, meerkats and piranhas, and a large octopus or two.

Women, cats help each other build new lives Kitsap Humane Society’s Pawsitive Prison Program
Nichole Alexander and Patrick at Mission Creek Corrections Center for Women. “Patrick brings all of us so much comfort,” Alexander said. “We get to love him and pet him. We get to nurture something.”
BY LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com
P
atrick has known hardships. He’s shy. He doesn’t like meeting new people. Sometimes he’s afraid to show his face. He’s been passed over many times in life. Much like Patrick, Nichole knows hardships. She’s been in trouble. She’s made bad decisions. And she’s been rejected. And that’s why Patrick and Nichole have become such good friends. They’re good together. They met in prison. But they aren’t your typical cellmates, because she’s got two legs and he’s got four. She has soft skin and he — well, he has fur. Patrick, a 9-pound brown and white tabby, is a cat. Nichole Alexander, 35, is an inmate, a mother and a former drug dealer, who is serving four years at the Mission Creek Corrections Center for Women near Belfair. They became friends through the Pawsitive Prison Program of the Kitsap Humane Society (KHS), which brings kittens to be fostered and cats to be socialized to the corrections center. The program began in September. “Everyone thinks we are rehabbing the cats,” Alexander said. “But really, the cats are rehabbing us.” And that’s the key. Participants, both the twolegged kind and the fourlegged kind, get something out of it. For the cats, many who are passed over for adoption because they aren’t social, get time to learn to trust human beings. The women get an opportunity to nurture and be comforted as they fulfill their prison terms. Angela Hosking, correctional unit supervisor of the Gold Creek unit, brought the program to Mission Creek. “I wanted to give it a try,” she said. “I had heard of it working other places and I thought it could work here.”

Michelle Thomas likes to spend quiet time in the afternoon reading to Noel. Thomas has been around animals all her life and hopes to work at or even begin her own shelter when she gets out of Mission Creek Corrections Center for Women. Leslie Kelly / Sound Publishing Any inmate who wants to participate and is in good standing at the correctional center can apply to take part. A thorough background check is made and as long as the person has no history of crimes against animals or vulnerable people, she can be considered. Currently, 20 women are participating. Staff at the Kitsap Humane Shelter in Silverdale choose which cats will go to prison. Each cat has a primary handler and a secondary handler assigned to them. With the first group, there was an adult cat and a mother cat with eight kittens. After about six weeks, the cats and kittens were deemed ready
for adoption and were returned to the shelter, and KHS officials just announced that all have been adopted. Currently, there are five cats in the Gold Creek unit. Among them is Patrick. “When we first got Patrick, he didn’t come out of his kennel for nine days,” Alexander said. “Once he came out, he began exploring, but he still was very shy.” So, she began to earn his trust and soon, she was able to hold him. Eventually, after a few weeks, she was able to take him out to the day room, where he met other women and began to warm up to some of them. Now, the women
ask Alexander to “bring Patrick out.” “He likes to be on his leash and go exploring,” she said. “Sometimes, he’ll actually jump down from the bed and want to go out.” It’s taken some time, but Patrick is becoming more social and less scared. He does, however, prefer being in his room to being in the hallway or the day room. Recently, he’s discovered the window in his room and likes to sit and watch the world go by. “He hasn’t really discovered birds yet,” Alexander said. “He just watches the people.” Alexander has a son, 16, and a daughter, 8, at home. She misses them
a lot and has more than three and a half years to go on her sentence. “Patrick brings all of us so much comfort,” Alexander said. “We get to love him and pet him. We get to nurture something. Many of us are mothers and we miss mothering our children.” Each handler also learns responsibility. They have to care for their cat, feeding it and cleaning its litter box daily. They set aside time to play with the cat and they keep a journal of the cat’s progress. Prior to taking part in the program, they attend a class taught by KHS where they learn how to pick up and hold a cat, and they observe such things as how a cat is dewormed. Alexander was chosen to participate because she hopes to become a veterinarian technician when she is released. “I grew up around animals,” she said. “We lived on a small farm and I had goats, baby cows, chickens and even a wolf. One of my favorite memories is of me and my sister when we had a mother cat and 13 kittens. We’d take them in a basket out to the garden and just let them walk around.” Having been in the medical field prior to her drug conviction, she thinks caring for animals would be satisfying to her because she’d “still be helping a living thing.” Down the hall, Lori Johnson and Susan Carriker are the handlers
ABOUT THE PROGRAM Kitsap Humane Shelter supplies all of the items needed for the Pawsitive Prison Program, and there is no cost to the correctional center to participate. The Humane Society is looking for help to continue the program. Needed are donations of cat playpen kennels, kitten and cat food (both wet and dry), nonclumping cat litter, cat toys, cat dome beds, cat brushes, kitchen scales used to weigh the kittens, bleach and spray bottles. Donations can be taken to the shelter at 9167 Dickey Road in Silverdale, or ordered from the shelter’s wish list on Amazon.com. For more information about this program or the shelter, call 360-6926977. Kitsap Humane Society is an independent, nonprofit organization that has operated in Kitsap County since 1961. Its goal is to rehome stray and abandoned animals. — Above, the program logo, designed by women inmates in a graphic arts program. for Ricky, a 3-year-old male all black Bombay cat. Not only is Ricky shy, but he also has had a hard time being adopted because he is black. “Many people won’t adopt black cats because of the stigma,” Hosking said. This breed of cat is all black, has gold eyes and a dense mink-like feel to its fur. “He’s very unique,” Johnson said. “He’s only been with us a couple of weeks and he’s just beginning to come out of his shell.” He’s warming up to people, Johnson said. She told of a situation earlier in the day when another woman See CATS, Page 9

Cats
Ruby, a Torbie, is one of the cats being trained by women at Mission Creek Corrections Center near Belfair.
Continued from page 8 was having a hard time. “I took Ricky to her and he really calmed her down,” Johnson said. For Carriker, Ricky is helping her connect with her 9-year-old daughter. “My daughter is scared to come here because she’s seen all those prison programs on TV,” Carriker said. “When I told her we had cats here, she began to realize that it’s not a bad place here and that I’m here to get better.” Her daughter has a cat named Tom at home and when they talk by phone, “we share cat stories,” she said. Other four-legged residents at Gold Creek right now include Sienne, a 4-month-old female; Ruby, a 2-year-old Torbie; and Noel, a 5-year-old buff-colored female. Noel’s handler, Michelle Thomas, likes to spend quiet time in the afternoon reading to Noel. “She wasn’t too social at first,” Thomas said of Noel. “But she’s made herself right at home.” Thomas has been

around animals all her life and hopes to work at or even begin her own shelter when she gets out. “This has been very therapeutic for me,” she said. “I’ve been locked up for two years now and was on blood pressure medications when I came here. But since working with the cats, my blood pressure has gone down.” Valorie Matz, Sienna’s handler, can relate to the cats. “Many of them have been abandoned or abused,” Matz said. “Many of the girls in here have also been abandoned or abused. We know what it’s like not to fit in. We relate to each other.”
Like all of the women in the program, Alexander knows the time will come when she’ll have to let Patrick go. There’s no set timetable, Hosking said. When each cat leaves is based on its own individual progress. “I’d love to keep him here to be our mascot,” she said. “Many of us would. But we’re just his adoptive moms. He needs to have a real home.” And, as Alexander tells her daughter, helping with the cats is important for the women inmates. “It shows that even though you’ve made mistakes, you can still do good things,” she said.

into your home or gifting one to another home. 1.Who will be the primary caretaker of the pet? Around the holidays, people may decide to give a pet as a gift. Do not let a pet be a surprise to the recipient or their family. Just because Grandma is lonely does not mean you should rush out and get her Fido. Make sure your loved one is a willing pet owner and fully prepared to care for the animal. If you are giving the pet to your child, are you ready to care for an animal? Your child may promise to train, feed and clean the pet, but this promise may be short-lived. As the adult in the home, the parent is ultimately responsible for making sure a pet is being cared for properly. 2. Is the home appropriate and prepared for the pet? Being a responsible pet owner means you are able to properly house and provide care for the animal. Will the pet live in an apartment or a house? Will it need a yard? Are there other family pets and are they ready to have another “sibling?” How many hours a day

Bainbridge Review 206-842-6613 Central Kitsap Reporter 360-308-9161
will the pet be left alone? Animals have different needs for space, exercise, vet care and social habits. Make sure to thoroughly research the kind of pet and breed you are interested in and what its space, veterinary and exercise needs will be. 3. Where and who will you be acquiring the pet from? You may have heard someone say, “Adopt, don’t shop,” but what does that actually mean when you are preparing to purchase a pet? Adopting not only helps your community and your pocket book, but it’s also a smart and thoughtful way to do what’s right. When you adopt, you save money on costs since adoptable pets from rescues and shelters are already spayed or neutered, up to date on shots, microchipped and treated for worms and fleas. Best of all, when you adopt, you can be proud that you gave a homeless animal its forever home. Thousands of pets are waiting at local shelters for new homes. Purchasing animals, on the other hand, can support puppy
mills, which contribute to pet overpopulation and cause countless dogs lifetimes of suffering. Caring for an animal is a major commitment and a long-term responsibility. There are many other questions to ask yourself before bringing a pet into your home or the home of a loved one. If the household is ready for this commitment and you would like to give the joy of a new pet to a loved one, consider purchasing a gift certificate from a local shelter or rescue. “Gift certificates are a great way for you to give the gift of a pet to your family while still allowing you to bond with the animal and pick the pet that is right for you and your family’s lifestyle,” said Natalie Smith, director of animal welfare at Kitsap Humane Society. “Kitsap Humane Society sells gift certificates yearround that can be used for adoption fees, microchips and spay/neuter services, and they have no expiration date.” Meowy Christmas and Yappy Holidays! — Rebekah Johnson is events and outreach manager of the Kitsap Humane Society.

CELEBRATE
GLUTEN-FREE FOODIES By LISA GARZA
THE HOLIDAYS
You taste big flavor in every Brazi Bite
AT THE POINT
THE RAT PACK TRIBUTE FRIDAY, DECEMBER 18TH & SATURDAY, DECEMBER 19TH

razi Bites are the perfect for every occasion. What are Brazi Bites? Savory gluten-free cheese bread born in Brazil but made in Portland, Oregon. Brazi Bites are made with eight naturally gluten-free ingredients and are nonGMO, with no preservatives, no sugar, no trans fats and nothing artificial — 100 percent natural. I love these little Brazi Bites because they are packed with big flavor and are available in four varieties: Asiago and Garlic; Original Cheddar and Parmesan; nitrate-free
Tickets $10 Advance & $15 Day of Show Doors open 7:00 PM | Show 8:00 PM
Try some Brazi Bites — savory gluten-free cheese bread — Lisa Garza / Gluten-Free Foodies with your brisket. Bacon with Cheddar and Parmesan; and Jalapeño and Pepper Jack. Just imagine: cheese bread that is deliciously decadent alone or as a snack that is the perfect pairing in place of crackers or plain bread. Find them in your freezer section of your local store.
Make this cheesy bread for breakfast to dip into fried eggs in place of toast or serve with smoked salmon in place of bagels. It is so fun to make them for a nibble platter for game time. I love the Asiago and Garlic and
