It was revealed Wednesday by City Manager Brenda Bauer that a portion of the Civil Service Commission’s files have gone missing, including files pertaining to Bainbridge Island Police Officer Jeff Benkert, who fatally shot Douglas Ostling in October 2010 after responding to a 911 call. The matter arose as the City Council was addressing an ordinance defining the position of the CSC’s secretary/chief examiner — the ordinance was later passed by a 4-2 vote. Bauer was fielding prepared questions from Councilor Bob Scales regarding the S/CE when it was revealed that the files were missing. SEE MISSING FILES, A3
Public, ethics board challenge code revisions Proposal forwarded to city’s Ethics Board for further review after lengthy discussion. By RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer
Proposed revisions to the city’s ethics program prompted heavy public response Wednesday as the City Council debated the controversial issue. The proposed revisions to the city’s ethics program have caused public anxiety that they will harm government transparency, and place emphasis on control of the city’s administration over the city’s
Ethics Board and how it handles complaints against the city. “The present attempt by a majority of four on our current council to muzzle an independent citizen ethics advisory commission is a veiled attempt to protect the city manager’s executive department from independent citizen check and balance,” Council Member Bill Knobloch, said in a statement regarding the matter representing his opposition to the revisions.
“...The proposed legislation... will work to undermine ‘due process’ for transparency and accountability in our city government.” In response to mounting public concern over his revisions to the ethics code, Councor Bob Scales went page by page through the code explaining each change, and the history behind them — an approach that occupied nearly an hour of the council meeting. Though even after his presentation, several members of the audience said the issue was being rushed through the council without inclusive public and city participation.
“Without some input from the Ethics Board we find this objectionable,” said Dennis Willerford, chair of the Ethics Board. “Many of these proposals are completely unworkable. I think it displays an innocent lack of understanding of how the Ethics Board works.” After strong public response, and council debate, the council unanimously decided to hand the revisions over to the Ethics Board for review, and wait to hear the members’ opinions on the matter, which will most likely occur in 2012. “I don’t see any threat to transparency in the suggested revisions,”
said Councilor Barry Peters. “The fact that our City Council has enacted a local ethics code, which is in addition to the ethics standards that apply under state law, is a plus for transparency here in Bainbridge. Many cities have no separate ethics code at all.” Knobloch statement further said that a motivating factor for the alterations stemmed from the recent Civil Service Commission (CSC) controversy where the Ethics Board made a determination negatively reflecting upon City Manager Brenda Bauer — a SEE ETHICS, A5

CorreCtion The prize amount for the Bainbridge Island Historical Museum’s “Save History” raffle was incorrect in last week’s Review. The raffle’s first prize is 20 percent of the total proceeds. As of Tuesday, the museum has sold more than $21,000 worth of tickets, so the first prize will be at least $4,000. Its license with the state allows it to sell up to $25,000 which is the goal by noon, Dec. 5. If that goal is reached, the first prize winner will receive $5,000. The raffle drawing will be held at 2 p.m. Monday at the museum. For more information, call 842-2772 or visit www. bainbridgehistory.org.
around the island UAC recommends ‘no’ to sewer rate hike Dan Mallove, chair of the Utility Advisory Committee, submitted the committee’s official recommendation Wednesday that the city refrain from raising sewer rates by 19.5 percent. Mallove noted that the recommendation was unanimously passed by the committee. The rate was scheduled to go up in 2012, but the committee concluded that there are sufficient revenues in the utility to forgo the rate increase next year. Mallove further asked the City Council to to direct the UAC to revisit the issue in the middle of 2012 to ensure that the utility will not require another rate
increase for the coming years. The council expects to see an ordinance next week that will remove the rate bump scheduled for 2012.
Woman dies in fatal Port Madison fire Investigators are unable to determine the exact cause of a fire that occurred Saturday morning, resulting in the death of a woman and her dog in their Port Madison area home. The Kitsap County Coroner’s Office determined that smoke inhalation caused the death of 67-year-old Shirley Dillenburg, who was discovered inside her home on Washington Avenue. While the exact cause of the fire is unclear, investiga-

tors were able to conclude that the fire began in the living room and spread so quickly that Dillenburg was unable to flee the smoke in time. Investigators also cited that they were unable to locate any signs of smoke alarms within the home. Flowers had begun to collect a few days after the fire, forming a memorial in front of the home as investigators clear the singed remains. The home was entirely engulfed in flames by the time the fire department arrived from the Madison Avenue Fire Station. It took around 10 minutes to bring down the fire to a point safe enough for firefighters to enter, and another 30 minutes to fully extinguish the fire B.I. Fire Chief Hank Teran said. The resulting damage has been estimated at $50,000.

State Auditor says city has room for improvement Cost allocation plan could result in higher utility charges. By RICHARD D. OXLEY Staff Writer
The State Auditor’s Office offered suggestions for improvement as the results of an audit into the city’s overhead charging practices that was made public Monday. The audit is the culmination of more than a year’s worth of effort by the office, which focused on determining if overhead costs between the general fund and utility funds were distributed according to leading practices and state law. Overhead costs deal primarily with administrative services, or even materials, that support the
utility. The audit did not look at operational costs such as pay for employees of the city’s Public Works Department. “The City of Bainbridge Island is pleased to receive the results of the audit,” said City Manager Brenda Bauer. “We continue to work towards using all best practices in choosing a proxy for our allocations.” The audit report noted that in the past some cities have overcharged their utilities in order to pay for overhead costs that should be paid for through tax dollars. This audit was designed to determine if practices are in place to provide fair and legal distribution of funds. While the City did exhibit room for improvement, since 2009, the year on which the auditors concentrated, there have already been changes implemented to update the
city’s practices. State auditors looked into how the city allocated money in 2009 to various departments from its utilities and the general fund according to leading practices and state law. The results of the audit suggests that the city should improve in three of the seven leading practices, including: • Being up to date and having detailed the basis for overhead charges. • The use of allocation factors that equitably allocate overhead to each fund and department. • The allocation of overhead to all benefitting funds and departments, or charge the general fund for any overhead the city chooses not to charge to some benefiting funds and departments. While the city was found to be lacking in the first two lead-
ing practices, the final practice was cited as not having adequate enough documentation to make a determination. The results also indicated that the city needs to use better documentation to support the money it allocates across departments. The city was shown to have “no support” for staff time in accounting, budget, payroll, human resources, IT services, legal, purchasing, and accounts payable. “If they had used time that was recorded we would say that was sufficient,” said Chris Cortines, principal auditor for Local Government Performance Audits. “But instead they were based on estimates.” Bainbridge Island did not have an overhead allocation plan prior to the audit, which is recommended by the state. However, the report said that
the city allocated overhead in a “logical fashion.” The City was commended for having developed a plan that incorporates many of the leading practices since the audit began. “Since 2009, the city has moved to more allocations based on leading practices,” Bauer said. “…In addition, some staff members use work orders, which allows the allocation of their time to be based on actual experience.” With the help of a consultant, the city developed a cost allocation plan in 2009 that integrates new leading practices. The plan was presented to the council in 2010, but has yet to be adopted. State auditors recommended that the time city employees use on the utilities should be better documented to support the charge to the utilities. When the city pays for
overhead costs associated with utilities, such as electricity or the support from the IT department, it gets paid from the general fund. The general fund recovers this money by charging the utilities. The audit found that there were additional charges to the utility that the city wasn’t making use of, such as janitorial and maintenance, or electricity costs. This leads to the city’s ability to charge the utilities more. “(The auditors) think it’s a good plan,” Cortines said. “It would likely result in more overhead costs to the utilities, but it would support those charges and how those amounts are determined... the charges could go higher than what they were in 2009.” Bainbridge Island was one of eight Washington cities audited. The audit was at no cost to the city.

determination that the council opted not to consider before reading. Scales explanations for his revisions were rooted in the city’s experience with the CSC actions. A number of revisions were proposed, including one that bars the Ethics Board from making any of its determinations easily accessible to the public. Under the proposed code the board would no longer be allowed to post determinations on the city’s website, or distribute them in other ways. The only avenue for the public to know of any official determinations is for individuals to make a public records request to the city. “The worst thing that can happen to you is we find that you have violated the ethics program,” Scales said. “With everything on the Web, that is the worst thing that can happen to you. Once it’s on the Web, it’s there forever.” Scales noted that by
www.BaInBRIDgeRevIew.com
removing the process from the Web, those involved in ethics complaints won’t be smeared as much before a final determination on the matter has been made — an issue he felt came up in the CSC ethics complaint. “Unless we preserve confidentiality during the early preliminary phase of the complaint review process, an innocent volunteer could forever after have Google searches showing ‘ethics violation’ or ‘ethics complaint’ against their name,” Peters said. “Even if the complaint is later completely dismissed.” Other revisions include limiting the ethics group to receiving advice from the city’s attorney only, or removing portions of the program stating that the board shall report violations of the law to appropriate authorities. “Having city employees and officials involved in the process undermines the independence and credibility of the original intent for the board,” Knobloch said. “Having to ask for the record from the city clerk begs the question as to how is the public going to know what is
going on?” Knobloch, along with Christine Rolfes, Debbie Vancil and Bob Scales, originally drafted and proposed the city’s ethics program in 2003. After a series of revisions, it was finally passed in 2006. At the time there was no accountability with the mayor or city hall, according to Knobloch, who further feels that the current ethics program has been working fine and doesn’t need to be altered. Earlier this year the ethics code was amended to include not just the council, but also members of committees and commissions, many of whom are volunteers. The code now applies to 10 times as many people, according to Peters, and therefore the risk of running into ethics violations is now higher. Peters said that the revisions will help volunteers, such as giving them access to the city attorney for advice. The proposal is now in the hands of the Ethics Board, which will review it before any further decisions are made.

Fairbank Construction Co. workers are putting the finishing touches on the main hall of the new Manor House event center at Lynwood Center in preparation for a public open house next week.
Pleasant Beach Village’s first piece of puzzle is nearly ready By DENNIS ANSTINE Staff Writer
From the street, the new Pleasant Beach Village at Lynwood center doesn’t look all that different these days from the old Blossom Hill development it is replacing. But the project, now owned by Windermere founder John Jacobi, is gathering momentum as the first phase of the makeover nears completion. The Manor House event center, nee Edna’s Beach Café, will be open for business soon after a public open house is held on Wednesday, Dec. 7 from 4-7 p.m. “We already have 13 events scheduled, including four or five Christmas parties,” said
Jim Laws, the owner/broker of Bainbridge Windermere who is involved with the project. The Manor House will have a capacity of about 200 people with a full bar, restaurant and patio seating. The project still isn’t fullspeed ahead, but work is being done inside of the four buildings located to the north of the Manor House. There’s been somewhat of a delay as Jacobi’s request for a rezone goes through the city process. Jacobi wants to put an eight-or nine-room inn in the building closest to the Manor House. He needs the city to rezone the Neighborhood Service Center part of the Comp Plan to include inns
with no more than 15 units. The rezone request has sailed through the city process with no objections and the council could approve it on Dec. 7. The development will also have a 12-unit apartment complex located in three of the four buildings, including two penthouses. There’s also the need to fill 10,000 square feet of retail space on the bottom floors of the unfinished buildings. “The plan is to finish the inside of the buildings, then add the stucco facade and landscaping,” Law said. “The goal is to have a grand opening in late spring or summer.” For Manor House information, call 842-8439.

IN OUR OPINION
Want to avoid a $450 ferry parking ticket? Think twice
W
arning: In response to legitimate complaints by people with ADA parking permits, the Bainbridge Island Police Department recently became more aggressive in enforcing illegal parking by people without permits in the seven ADA spots located near the Bainbridge Island ferry terminal. Some violators have received a $450 ticket, even when they are parked only temporarily while unloading passengers. Police Cmdr. Sue Shultz said the tickets are non-negotiable, though that’s always up to the individual officer’s discretion. Disabled citizens, some of whom have been complaining for years about the terminal’s ADA parking spaces being used by drivers without permits, say it’s about time police begin enforcing the law. Why now? BIPD recently hired a new parking enforcement officer and can devote more time to the terminal. It’s a sticky situation since the city is forced to administer an area owned by the state, which would prefer no involvement whatsoever with this “parking lot from hell” that islanders and commuters have been experiencing for years. About the only choice open to drivers trying to drop off a passenger – if the right-lane parking area is full, as it often is – is illegal parking in one space or another. That’s probably not a wise option now. Why not get a little exercise by parking up on Winslow Way East where there are often empty two-hour parking spaces? For one, people argue, it can be treacherous when walking with luggage through the terminal parking lot. Secondly, people are used to the airport dropoff scene and want it here, too. Regardless, Shultz said there will be no backing off the recent increase in enforcement, which means islanders will need to make the adjustment – unless they want to gamble against receiving an expensive parking ticket. It seems unfair, perhaps, but those of us without restrictive disabilities should always put the well-being of those who bear that cross ahead of our own personal needs. Even if for only a parking-lot moment.

LETTERS Ethics Code
Proposed revisions are necessary and sensible I am writing to support Mr. Scales’ proposed revisions to the Bainbridge Island Ethics Code. Unlike many of the complainants about the revisions, I actually read the whole document and I am in support of the revisions. I served on the Ethics Committee of the United Church of Christ for a few years and took ethics training during that time, so I come to this with some frame of reference. I appreciate the intent to clarify the process, and the “rules of the road” regarding conflicts of interest for all public servants – hired, elected or volunteer. It brings to the forefront the need to treat all perceived ethics violations and possible “respondents” in similar fashion. One wishes that an Ethics Code would not have to be spelled out in such specificity, but given the number of accusations of “corruption” that have been made and lawsuits threatened, these additional clarifications proposed by Mr. Scales do seem absolutely necessary. My Social Work Code of Ethics is very specific and I think it serves both professional social workers and the public it serves well. Gloria Sayler MSS Bainbridge Island
Human Rights Day
Conflict areas require international observers Human rights are fragile and often violated around the world, but
nowhere more egregiously than in places where conflict leads to ongoing armed violence. Human Rights Day (observed yearly on Dec. 10) has adopted the slogan “dignity and justice to all of us.” In conflict zones, where civilians are uprooted and terrorized, international observers can foster dignity and justice by bringing the spotlight of world attention, and by applying the moral suasion of nonpartisan advocacy. Currently, members of Nonviolent Peaceforce do such work in the new country of South Sudan, where risk of war remains high. Unarmed civilian peacekeepers, who come from all over the world, are stationed near its Northern border and in other sensitive locations to protect peacemakers and protect civilians, especially children at risk of abduction.

Veteran’s Day
Annual event brings the best out of people Thank you, Robbie Sitzman, for the Veteran’s Day letter (“Veteran’s Day ignored,” Nov. 18). The Bremerton area Veteran’s Day is held at the County Fair Pavilion. I represented the Nisei Veterans Organization at Washington State’s largest Veteran’s Day program. We had over a thousand in attendance as we have every year. The program is always full of VIPs and speakers. Each year the program is directed by both retired U.S. Navy Capts. Sandra and Earle Smith. After returning from this Veteran’s
Day program, Rosie and I briefly stopped at a market to do some shopping where a young and beautiful lady shook my 89-year-old hand. She had many kind words of thanks for serving our country and expressing all of her gratitude she had for my volunteering, etc. I believe that kind and thoughtful person was you, Robbie. If it was not, then there are more than one very nice Robbie types on this island. John Fujinari Bainbridge Island
Winery
Business owner caused his own ‘code’ problem The title of the article last week, “City codes threaten winery,” is wrong. It should read, “Winery willfully violates city ordinance.” Mr. Wilford knew what the constraints on a home business were when he signed the permit. Now it sounds as though he wants a growing business, not a home hobby, and does not like the constraints. Too bad. No neighbor wants to have the winery’s fruit flies, smells and a bunch of barrels next door to them for a number of weeks. The neighbors and community are protected from these intrusions by the constraints put in the business ordinance. If Mr. Willford truly wants a growing business (if you want to run with the big dogs then get off the front porch), he and others like him should lease a shared space in an industrial complex and get serious. Otherwise, just go back to a home hobby. Please don’t rationalize or blame the city; you caused your own problems. George Sterling Port Blakely

Remindful of turkey vultures, mountain beavers ‘Tis the season for hanging out with weird relatives. I received my first injection of strange relative juice last week with Thanksgiving and expect to receive a number of other doses between now and New Year’s. I’m sure that your family, like mine, has some truly strange members who come out of hiding at this time of year. My great uncle Bill is a fine example. This 70-year old man is, well, gross. Let me just say that I’ve only been at one Thanksgiving meal during which someone welcomed the turkey with a loud fart – yes, Bill was at the table and he had a sly grin on his face. Bill reminds me of a local
meals through their sense of smell, which is highly unusual because most birds’ sense of smell is absent or minimal. It is believed that turkey vultures can smell rotting meat up to 12 miles away. Possibly the most unusual trait of turkey vultures is their primary defense mechanism – vomiting on you. This is where I find myself thinking of Bill again. I’ve never seen the man vomit, but when my mom once took him to task for encouraging a cousin to eat dog food, I could see that he wished he could vomit on her. Turkey vulture vomit is surprisingly bad smelling and if you get it on your face or eyes, it will sting. Vultures

wild animal that most people don’t realize lives here – the turkey vulture. If you see one or more black specks of birds circling high in the sky around here during the summer, they are probably turkey vultures. Their main food source is carrion, meaning animals or fish that are already dead. Turkey vultures find their

It’s wise to wear gloves when handling a mountain beaver, which are feisty vegetarians. also defecate on their own legs to help cool themselves down when hot. West Sound Wildlife received its first turkey vulture patient this year. He’s a juvenile whose wing was badly broken. He was found by a bighearted hunter who brought him to us for care. Indeed, he has tried to vomit on us – many times. Another relative I’m looking forward to seeing next month is my aunt Martha. She’s probably not as

ancient as she appears, having led a hard life of drinking and smoking. But she seems like a relic of an older time, which reminds me of the mountain beaver. Mountain beavers are not related to the American beaver, which is the beaver that makes dams and cuts down trees. Rather, mountain beavers are the largest rodent in the Puget Sound. They are fascinating animals that live in large burrows and tunnel systems, are brown in color, ferocious vegetarians and are 12- to 20-inches long. Most noteworthy, they are the oldest and most primitive rodent on the planet and live only in the wet temperate coasts of the Pacific Northwest. In fact, mountain beavers have been living here for 50 million years. When I see mountain beavers described as “living fossils,” it brings to mind a number of my relatives. But I think of Martha in particular because of another strange mountain beaver trait – they have to drink one-third or more of their bodyweight each day. I don’t know if I’ve
ever seen Martha without a drink in her hand. West Sound Wildlife receives a handful of mountain beaver patients most years. One of our mountain beaver patients this year was attacked by a dog, which is not unusual. Luckily for her, she was able to make a full recovery. Oh, did I mention that mountain beavers are the sole target of the largest flea known to modern science? The females of this flea can be one-third of an inch in length. Now that is disturbing. I’ll appreciate the rest of my holiday interactions with strange relatives a little more after having written this column. The relatives, including Bill and Martha, will be just as weird as before, but I’ll enjoy thinking about Bill vomiting up half-digested meat and Martha digging a burrow. I’ll try to avoid thinking about what types of fleas Martha is carrying. Kol Medina is executive director of the West Sound Wildlife Shelter on Bainbridge Island.

Friday, December 2, 2011 • Bainbridge Island Review
Go to work, open email, day-dream a bunch I received a funny article over the Internet the other day. I was at work at the time, so, of course, I immediately dropped everything and read it. Since a bus station is the place where the bus stops, and a train station is the place where the train stops, I think you can guess what happens in my office at my work station. The gist of this particular article was that English is a strange and funny language. For example, there’s no egg in eggplant, no ham in hamburger, and neither pines nor apples in pineapples. English muffins were not invented in England nor were French fries invented in France. Sweetmeats are candies while sweetbreads, which are neither sweet nor bread, are meat. Boxing rings are square. Guinea pigs are not pigs and do not hail from Guinea. We ship things by truck and send cargo by ship. We have noses that run and feet that smell. And how can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same thing, yet a wise
THE LATTE GUY By TOM TYNER
man and a wise guy be opposites? How can your h o u s e b u r n down as it is burning up? And why do we fill in a form by filling it out? When the stars are out they are visible, but when the lights are out they are invisible. Finally, why doesn’t the word ‘Buick’ rhyme with ‘quick’? I don’t disagree that English can be a strange and funny language. However, I’d argue that it’s no stranger or funnier than many of the other things invented by the human race, which, by the way, is not a race at all but rather a species. Thinking about strange and funny things got me to thinking about Douglas Adams’ classic five-part
series, “The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy,” in which Adams created a world where dolphins were the highest form of earthly life. Adams’ dolphins spent several millennia trying to teach mankind to speak their language in order for us to advance to their level of intelligence, to no avail. When the dolphins finally gave up on humans and departed the planet, they were gracious enough to say goodbye and thank us for all the fish. Therein lies one of the principal differences between men and dolphins. Thinking about smart dolphins and water reminded me that Tom Robbins once theorized that water might be the earth’s dominant intelligence, and that human beings were themselves invented by water as a device for transporting itself from one place to another. Here’s a little workplace productivity tip for you.
If you find yourself in your office late in the afternoon pondering the nature of the universe after reading a funny e-mail about the English language, and your guides on that little diversion are Tom Robbins and Douglas Adams, your chances of engaging in any further productive activity on behalf of your employer that day are slim at best. But as long as your afternoon has been freed up, you might use the extra time to ponder some of life’s bigger questions. For example, do you think a church should function as a clubhouse for saints or as a hospital for sinners? And is it true that going to a church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car? A couple of weeks ago, SF Gate columnist Mark Morford wondered if religious people are human beings seeking a spiritual experience or spiritual
beings seeking a human experience. I’ve forgotten what my point was in all this. In fact, I’ve forgotten if I even had a point. But as long as we’re talking about forgetting things, I wonder if having a good memory is really an unequivocal blessing, or whether it might be evidence of an unhealthy inability to forget?
Maybe a clear conscience is just a sign of a fuzzy memory. I’d love to keep talking with you, but I think I’m getting another e-mail. Tom Tyner is an attorney for the Trust for Public Land. He is author of “Skeletons From Our Closet,” a collection of writings on the island’s latte scene.

History of Shig’s restored island dory travels full circle Some of the grandest events held on Bainbridge Island have been boat launchings. For example, 3,000 people came to Port Madison in 1871 for the launching of Wild Wood, the first full-rigged tall ship built on the West Coast. And our local museum is filled with photos of launchings at Hall Brothers’ Shipyard in Port Blakely and Winslow. With Capt. Ed Shields, whose family managed Poulsbo’s Bering Sea cod fishing fleet, I once inventoried sites on island shorelines where boats had been built and launched. Nearly every beach had known the magic of a vessel’s birth. The grandest launch in the last 50 years was that of the sloop, Persis, built by Charlie Taylor – last of the great wooden ship builders – and his grandsons. Hundreds of boaters witnessed, cheered and sounded horns when Persis slid down the greased

ways east of the ferry dock. And Andy Goodwin of Port Madison launched his yacht, Indian, in Eagle Harbor, bringing Port Madison water with him for the christening so Indian would know her home. Last Saturday, in similar traditions, Shigeru Moritani, the last surviving child of the island’s first strawberry farmers, christened his restored dory with water from Cannery Cove so that “like a salmon planted in Cooper Creek, it would always find its way home.” Thirty small-boat enthusiasts, oldtimers, and Friends of Cannery Cove gathered with “Shig” to dedicate and relaunch the dory we recently restored. It takes a community. Shig built it well 50 years ago.

Shigeru Moritani pours water from Cannery Cove on his restored dory. Moritani is the youngest and only surviving child of Hayano and Hyakutaro Moritani, who, with Sakakichi Sumiyoshi and a Mr. Torii, became the island’s first strawberry farmers in 1908. Born Hayano Hashimoto in
Hiroshima, Shig’s mother came to this country as a picture bride. When her arranged husband could not marry her, his friend, Hyakutaro, did. In the years that followed, their farm and family grew with three sons, Nobuichi (“Mort”)Tatsu (“Tats”) and Shig. The two oldest were in their early teens when Hyakutaro died from complications of a tragic fall. Hayano persevered, raised three sons and with their help, ran a farm whose Olympic loganberries were a specialty of Frederick & Nelson’s store. The family was uprooted from its home during World War II and Shig eventually became a merchant seaman. For 50 years he traveled the world and became a prolific reader. When his mother became ill in 1961, he returned home to help care for her during her last days. During this time, he built a rowing dory and enjoyed taking it out on Puget Sound. He used it for more than a flat-water,
exercise machine in the harbor as many people today. It was useful for clamming, fishing and transportation. Last Saturday, folks huddled by a kerosene heater beneath overcast skies. Some sang “Row, row, row your boat” and remembered the late Kim Bush, who rowed to Alaska and whose memorial was earlier that day. Thanks were given to those who helped restore the dory. Cheers were given the restorer’s wife, who had suggested the dory be painted – in the living room. We are still married. Before the dory was placed in Cannery Cove this cold day, hearts were warmed. With the new name of the dory carved in the transom, Shigeru Moritani ceremoniously poured Cannery Cove water over the bow proclaiming to cheers, “I now christen you ‘Hayano’ Maru!” Gerald Elfendahl is an island historian who often works on boats.

Big-hearted ‘Brigadoon’ will have you smitten By CONNIE MEARS Staff Writer
Ovation!’s holiday season musical, “Brigadoon,” illustrates what can happen when (the right) two people come together. Life imitates art in this case: Seattle actress/costumer Rachel Wilkie, cast as Fiona MacLaren, had to “wait for her dearie” when, after initial auditions, the lead part of her onstage love interest, Tommy Albright, still wasn’t cast. Enter dashing local theater veteran Dan Engelhard, who responded to a notice of the vacant part after returning from travels. He was worth the wait, as it’s a match made in theater heaven. For the audience, the impressive vocals, believable chemistry and Wilkie’s irrepressible smile feels “almost like being in love.”
Lost and found The play begins with New Yorkers Albright and his cynical sidekick Jeff Douglas, played with punch by Wilkie’s real-life husband Alan Wilkie. After getting lost in the Scottish countryside on a hunting expedition, they stumble upon a mysterious village, Brigadoon, where things don’t quite add up. As Fiona, gifted Rachel Wilkie takes the audience, Albright and her voice into the highlands, where love mingles with the Scottish heather she must gather for her sister’s wedding. Tommy is immediately smitten. “I’m a romantic at heart,” said Director Ron Milton in his selection of the family classic. “It has beautiful music and good cheer.” In fact, the entire ensemble evokes good cheer with high-watt energy throughout. Besides the two highly accomplished leads, the cast is filled with seasoned performers of all ages. Myriah Riedel, who plays the spirited and love-crazed Meg Brockie seems too young to have 25 productions to her credit, one of which includes the lead in Ovation!’s summer rendition of “Carnival.” Alan Wilkie, who has appeared in more than 100 Northwest

A well-organized miracle “Brigadoon” runs Dec. 2-18 at Bainbridge High School Theatre, 9330 High School Rd. Performances are at 7:30 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 3 p.m. Sundays.

productions and also is a director, tempers the sentiment with sardonic potency. The shadow from Ron Mackley’s manic Harry Beaton gives some depth to the otherwise bonny vibe.
Fan of the clans The play’s unique Celtic flavor is expressed via lovely tartan costuming by Shannin-Strom Henry with assistance from Victoria Kight. Highland dancing features a quartet of ladies including Carolyn Baractaon who teaches the stylized dance, Ali Lorenz who plays the bride Jean MacLaren, Madeline Mikami and Amanda Swanson. Ovation! Music Director and Orchestra Conductor Todd Hulet said the Highland-style music is unique in many ways. The percussionist, for instance, brought his usual gear only to settle on chimes, bells, and other instruments he wouldn’t normally use. There is even a bagpipe dirge, played by BHS freshman Nick Stahl. As usual for Ovation! the set is spare with a few nimble scene changes in the two-hour two-act production, including a 15-minute intermission.

Places everyone Once the casting was complete, the production quickly gelled. Both Rachel Wilkie and Engelhard have played their respective roles in other productions, which meant they could spend time developing the characters even further. It also allowed for more run throughs than many productions get. “Repetition creates an atmosphere of no fear and confidence,” Milton said. “It allows the audience to settle into their chair.” All that polishing paid off. Aye, “Brigadoon” gleams in all the right places. For more information, visit www.ovationmtb.com.

Boys, girls get first wins Spartans Bell, Dieterich receive first-team honors ‘new’ coaches Basketball teams’
have been around before. By DENNIS ANSTINE Staff Writer
Nicole Hebner, the head coach for the Bainbridge girls basketball team, says she’s definitely prepared for her new job after spending five years as a BHS assistant under two different coaches. “I’m enjoying it and we have a good group of kids,” she said the day after the Spartans opened the season with a 46-26 win at home over Olympic. “Of course, I know them all and that helps.” Orness is no less familiar with his team though he resigned from his position as BHS boys’ head coach after the 2007-08 to spend more time with his young children. He didn’t leave the sport behind, however, choosing to coach the Woodward Middle School’s team for three years. But he missed the job and

Orness knows how to prepare a team for the Metro League since he led the Spartans into the finals of the Class 3A state tournament in 2007 before losing. This year’s team may not be as talented as his last BHS group, but it’s too early to tell how good it will be. The Spartans opened with a 58-54 win over Kingston,
then were handed a 56-52 loss by Sequim. The Spartans have had difficulty shooting the ball, but not all of them. Senior Chris Bell totaled 20 points and 12 rebounds in the opener and then had 32 points and 9 rebounds in the game at Sequim. The boys face Central Kitsap at home Monday and then travel to Bishop Blanchet Tuesday for their league opener. Hebner was pleased with her team’s opener, primarily because of the defense it played. “We did some things really well, especially on defense,” she said. “We had four kids with four steals and two others with three. We were real solid.” The Spartans, who were led by Hannah DePew’s 12 points, led 19-11 at halftime and then went on a 17-8 run in the third quarter to put Olympic away. “We started controlling the tempo off our defensive pressure and got some good shots,” she said. The Spartans play Monday at Central Kitsap and Tuesday at Blanchet.
Bainbridge High Quarterback Chris Bell and defensive tackle Logan Dieterich were named to the first team chosen by the football coaches for the Metro League’s Mountain Division during the 2011 season. The two seniors led the Spartans into the first round of the state 3A playoffs with a win over Ingraham. The Spartans then lost to Camas, which advanced to the semifinals before losing to O’Dea. Bell led the Spartans in rushing with 508 yards on 93 carries, and passing with 813 yards, completing 46 of 105 attempts. He threw for seven touchdowns and ran for six. Bell also earned secondteam honors on defense for his play as a safety. Dieterich did double-duty as an offensive tackle, but was dominant on the defensive side. He had 68 total tackles, including 8.5 tackles for a loss and 4.5 sacks. He also recovered two fumbles. Linebacker Nik Moore was also named to the sec-
ond team on defense. Moore led the Spartans in total tackles with 80. Bainbridge had 11 players given honorable mentions: Center Bobby Miller, guard Sammy Orrey, tight end Cameron Brink, wide receivers Lars Nelson, and Kyler Mikami, running backs Josh Fitch and Max Wysong, kicker/punter Connor Winship, defensive end Josh Molskness, defensive tackle Connor Kenyon and cornerback Alex Coplan. The first team, including players given special honors: Defensive MVP – Jayshawn Jordan, O’Dea Special Teams MVP – Chevy Walker, Eastside Catholic OL of Year – Sam Flor, O’Dea. DL of Year – Cody Fulleton, O’Dea. Coach of year – D.R. Clawson, Seattle Prep.

Four years ago, owners Beth & Dennis Kommer weren’t happy with how much metal was ending up in landfills, so with a dream and a plan, they started a small home-based metal recycling business out of their shop. As demand grew, so did their business and just recently they began leasing property adjacent to the Hansville Garbage Center. From the little tin of Altoids that was dropped off to the big truck loads that come in, they take it all, big & small!

I promise not to add to your shopping stress. I might even be helping you in that regard. First on my list are our downtown merchants. They’ve taken quite a beating from the seems-to-goon-forever street work in front of their shops. They need our business and we need them to survive. Let’s all do ourselves a favor this

Of course the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center could use some help too, and the best way to add BISCC to your gift list is by selecting it as part of your One Call for All donation. This way, the Senior Center receives a bonus beyond your gift amount because undesignated donations are shared by all the named groups to which people have given. You’ve cast your bread, or in this case another kind of dough, upon the waters and it’s come back as more. A holiday miracle. Now let’s look at the rest of your gift list. Do you want to give something different that is both entertaining and delicious, while serving a helpful purpose? Snatch up some BISCC Chocolate Festival tickets that go on
sale Dec. 14 at the Senior Center. I say snatch because there are only 250 available and they won’t last long. At the reasonable price of $15 ($10 for Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center members), you might want several. They’re great holiday gifts and the admission price includes a raffle ticket for a basket of goods and gift certificates from local establishments. Additional raffle tickets are available for $5, or five for $20, which makes them excellent stocking stuffers. The Chocolate Festival takes place on Saturday, Feb. 4, just in time to suggest some yummy ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day. All proceeds from the sale of Festival and raffle tickets go toward funding the warm-
ing station and the fuel to keep it warm. The Chocolate Festival is also an opportunity to showcase Bainbridge restaurants and confectioners through the delicacies they’ve donated for sampling by Chocolate Festival’s attendees. What could be better than a gift that delights and informs, while doing something good for our community? Well, now that you’ve taken care of all your shopping right here in town, you deserve some fun and relaxation. Since you won’t be stressed and tired out from fighting the traffic and crowds in the malls and big box stores, you can get into the holiday spirit at 11 a.m., Dec. 13, while enjoying the Evergreen Singers
“Christmas in Song from Merry Olde England” concert. Listen to wonderful old carols and sample the tradition of the wassail bowl (spiced apple cider) for a jolly good time.

Jocelyn Clise Horder August 4, 1923 - November 18, 2011
Sydney was born July 16, 1916 in Seattle to Hilda and John McManus and passed away peacefully November 22, 2011 at her home for the past five years, the Marymoor Assisted Living Facility in Redmond. She grew up in West Seattle, graduating from West Seattle High School in 1934. Sydney married Lewis Daughters the following year and lived in a very scenic beach home close to the Alki Point lighthouse for several years. They later moved to Bainbridge and operated the Eagledale Market for many years and then “Macs Grocery” in West Seattle until retirement. Throughout their lives both Syd and Lew loved to drive, and they went through a number of GM cars over the years while traveling around the Northwest. One memorable trip included towing a homemade trailer to the 1939 New York World’s Fair long before the interstate highway system was built. Sydney’s primary focus in life concerned her immediate family including her two children, three grandchildren, two great grandchildren and a niece and her three children. This included attending numerous (hundreds) of sporting events and dance recitals as they all grew up. More recently Sydney continued to follow her granddaughter’s high school swim team events. She was even asked to time a swim meet when well into her 80’s. Sydney is survived by a son Jack and his wife Mary of Bellingham, a daughter, Tricia and her husband Bill Ebert of Redmond, a niece, Judy Kiriluk of Belfair and her two sons Bob and Jay, three grandchildren, B.J. Ebert, Kris Daughters and Susan Auld and two great grandchildren, Kellen and Evan Auld. A family burial service was held at Lakeview Cemetery December 2. Those who wish to make a contribution on Sydney’s behalf may contribute to Children’s Hospital or Evergreen Hospice.
Jocelyn Clise Horder, 88, passed away peacefully on Friday, November 18, at her home in Poulsbo, Washington, with her family and her beloved dog Rosie, by her side. A third generation Seattleite, she was born August 4, 1923, to Charles and Rosalind Clise. She attended Bush School and in 1944 graduated from the University of Washington School of Art where she received the Lambda Rho Art Honorary. She later studied print making under Amelio Amero at Cornish School of Art. Her wood engravings were exhibited in many NW art shows, the Library of Congress and the Pennsylvania Art Academy. During WWII she worked as a draftsman for Colby Steel and volunteered as a nurse’s aide at Swedish Hospital. She met her husband, Garrett Provine Horder, while racing sailboats on Lake Washington. They married in Seattle in 1949 and spent their honeymoon sailing together. With their four children, they cruised throughout the Northwest, Alaska, the Queen Charlotte Islands, Tahiti, Maine, Chesapeake Bay, the Caribbean and Scotland. She was a member of the Seattle Yacht Club and the Cruising Club of America. An avid mountain climber, Jocelyn summited Mt. Rainier, Mt. Shuksan, Mt. Olympus and Mt. Hood. She also loved hiking, crossing the High Divide in the Olympic Mountains and leading many of her Girl Scout troops exploring deep into the Olympics and Cascades. She had a lifelong passion for plants and developed an award winning garden which is included in the Smithsonian Archive of American Gardens and many publications. More than 4,000 visitors have toured her garden. She served as a Horticultural Judge for the Garden Club of America for five years. She created an extensive collection of bonsai. For twelve years she was curator of fern spore for the American Fern Society and Hardy Fern Foundation, exchanging spore with fern enthusiasts around the world. She was a member of numerous northwest garden clubs. She and her sister, Sylvia, spent many happy hours exploring, botanizing and arguing over the scientific names of plants. Jocelyn lived each day with vibrance, joy and a twinkle in her eye. She was generous and unassuming. A voracious reader, she had a keen intellect and an endless curiosity. Her knowledge, love and understanding of the natural world was an inspiration to those around her. Throughout her life she strove to protect the world she loved. She served on the boards of the Totem Girl Scout Council, the Northwest Horticultural Society, the Washington Chapter of the Nature Conservancy, the Hardy Fern Foundation and the Mountain Cabin Memorial Society, dedicated to servicemen killed in World War II. She is survived by her four children, Rosalind Williams (Ron) of Kingston, Morley Horder (Colleen) of Bainbridge Island, Bill Horder of Seattle, and Constance Horder (John Lyndes) of Canyon Creek, Montana, her four grandchildren, Garrett Kephart (Amy), Anna, Sarah and Catherine Horder, and her sister, Sylvia Clise Duryee of Seattle. Her caregiver, Carolyn Chase, loved and cared for her in her last years. She was preceded in death by her husband, Gary, and her brothers, Alfred and Charles. She was greatly loved. Her kind ways and gentle spirit touched many people. She will be remembered and held close in the hearts of those she knew and loved. There will be a private service. Donations may be made to the Hardy Fern Foundation, Children’s Hospital, Hospice of Kitsap County or a favorite charity. Please visit and sign the online guestbook at www.cookfamilyfuneralhome.com.

FYI POLICE BLOTTER Bainbridge Police reported the following incidents: Nov. 22 4:41 p.m. An Arrow Point resident discovered that his home had been entered and burglarized while he was away. Entrance was gained through the home’s bathroom or the unlocked front door. He said that among the items missing were a partially consumed bottle of Tylenol with codeine, one roll of toilet paper, one cigarette and around $10 in loose change. Items such as laptops, video games and TVs were left behind. Nov. 23 9:49 a.m. A boat attached to a Hidden Cove Road resident’s dock partially sank and police were called by neighbors. The boat was a 2005 Glacier
www.bAinbridgereview.com Bay 34-foot catamaran with twin outboards. The port pontoon had flooded. Both motors and most of the cabin were under water. No indication was found that any fuel spilled into the water. After pumping out the water and not finding a hole in the hull, it was concluded that after a recent heavy rain a malfunctioning automatic bilge pump had caused the sinking. 6:52 a.m. While backing up in the pickup zone at the Bainbridge ferry terminal, a taxi driver briefly pinned a pedestrian against the front bumper of another taxi. The taxi driver told officers it was dark and that the pedestrian was wearing dark clothing. The woman complained of leg pain and went to a Seattle hospital for treatment. Nov. 24 3:59 p.m. Residents sighted a row boat adrift in the water off Rockaway Beach Drive. They kayaked out to the boat and towed it ashore. Police were called and the boat was
placed ashore and the city’s harbor master was notified. Nov. 25 9:56 p.m. Two men got into an argument in the parking lot of a Winslow Way restaurant. The noise prompted a noise complaint to the police. Management broke up the argument and ordered the men to leave the premise After the argument, the staff announced “last call” and some patrons were upset because it was a little early. Management asked police to stay in case things got out of hand. There were no problems and police left after an hour. Police returned to the bar three hours later for another noise complaint. Several people in the establishment’s parking lot were being loud and officers told the people to lower their voices, which they did and then dispersed. Nov. 26 10:20 a.m. A 7-foot tall toy alligator for the Pop-Up Toys
store on Madrone Lane was damaged. The head, which was welded atop the body, was broken in several places. There were also large chips and dings all over the body. The owner said he would fix the damage himself. 1:10 p.m. Police checked out a vehicle parked off High School Road and found an intoxicated man sleeping inside. Officers gave him a “courtesy ride” to his home. Nov. 29 11:57 a.m. Banners advertising the Bainbridge Island Youth Soccer club were damaged while attached to a fence at Battle Point Park. The banner’s nylon mesh had been cut. 6:50 p.m. A woman living in Winslow called 911 requesting a visit from police because she was involved in a verbal dispute with her boyfriend Upon arrival, officers discovered the dispute was over a ring that the man had given her as a gift. The boyfriend wanted to sell the ring, but woman refused to give it back.

Bethlehem
Continued from page 1 as they drive through the makeshift city of Bethlehem, transporting them back in time. They will witness a bustling city, nomad encampments and town fixtures such as the tax collector and bakery. “We are trying to make the scene as authentic as possible, without going crazy,” coordinator Molly Dunn said. Actors will be allowed to wear glasses (a
relatively new invention) but children are encouraged to keep their light-up shoes at home. More than 117 costumes have been created for the townspeople. Members of the congregation have had great fun choosing their characters. Costumes range from ornate and lavish for the very wealthy, to tattered and worn for the poor — and come in all sizes, from extra-extra large to extra small. Dunn, who was part of a
similar experience at a church in California, brought the idea to Rolling Bay Presbyterian in midSeptember. She expected the congregation to start planning it for the 2012 holiday season. Instead, the idea was met with such enthusiasm it was decided to move ahead with it this year. The difference between Dunn’s church in California and Rolling Bay is many of the California congregants work in the movie industry
and have easy access to lighting and props. “But here we have livestock right across the street,” Dunn said. And although they may not work in Hollywood, congregants at Rolling Bay have proven their own with set and costume design. Marathon sewing sessions took place in the church basement. Those who lacked sewing skills cut fabric or ironed. Props were collected, See BETHLEHEM, Page 3

Ideas for gift-giving and coping with music Dear Erin, What’s the best gift to get grandparents, or the people who have it all? — Ideas needed in Indianola Dear Ideas, The old saying, “It’s the thought that counts,” really rings true. A gift shouldn’t be about the object, but should rather spring forth from your thought. So sit back and think about the people you are shopping for this holiday season. What are their hobbies or interests? Being aware of their interests makes the receiver feel cared for and important. From robot building to collecting

munity theater or movie theater? For fun, you could wrap up the tickets with an inexpensive pair of theater glasses or oversized candy. For grandparents, you can’t go wrong with personalized items such as a calendar featuring the grandchildren, or notecards made from their artwork. With a bit of thought, the receiver will be touched by your gift. People can smell “easy gift giving” miles away —in the form of hastily purchased, generic items. Vow this year to think before purchasing. Not only will the recipients be pleased with your efforts, but you’ll be excited to give the gift as well.
Bethlehem

Pastor Marty Shelton-Janck estimates that when the entire production is complete, more than 5,000 volunteer hours will have been spent. “The hope is to make this an annual event and invite anyone in the community and other churches to join us next year,” Shelton-Janck said. But for now, Rolling Bay is pleased by the efforts of its members. “It’s been very nice to see new members involved, as well as people like me who have been here for 35 years,” Thompson said. “We have a wide spectrum of ages and it’s fun to see how people have been able to plug themselves into the project.” Teens dressed as Mary mingle with older members dressed as wise men. Babies crawl on the floor among wooden shields and play swords. “Even if we stopped

Dear Erin, How do you cope when holiday music is playing all around you and you can’t stand to listen to it? — No more Fa-la-la-ing in Olalla Dear Fa-la-la, You aren’t alone in your misery. There is a Facebook page titled, “I hate Christmas songs,” with 696 followers. But short of staying home for the next month, or constantly wearing ear muffs, I think you’re out of luck. Just like the super-early shopping hours on Thanksgiving night, it seems like holiday music began
prematurely this year. The week before Halloween, I was shopping at a local grocery store and heard “Jingle Bell Rock,” followed by a song by the Black Eyed Peas. It was almost like they were easing us in to the holiday season. Your best bet may be to use earbuds or earplugs when entering any store, cafe, elevator or gas station. And by all means, avoid the 24-hour holiday music radio station. — Ask Erin is a feature of Kitsap Week. Have a question? Write Ask Erin, Kitsap Week, P.O.

Gamache wines are big on the palate NW WINES
By Andy Perdue And eric degermAn
Wine Press Northwest
B
rothers Bob and Roger Gamache began growing wine grapes on a plateau above the Columbia River in 1982, primarily for Ste. Michelle Wine Estates. But in 2002, they decided to launch a winery — named after their family — with the help of Charlie Hoppes. Very quickly, Gamache Vintners wines became highly acclaimed. Roger oversees the viticulture side of the business, while Bob handles the winery, and their synergy is paying off. Their wine was originally made at Cañon de Sol near Richland, Wash., where Hoppes made his own Fidelitas label, and the brothers opened a tasting room not far away. They’ve since relocated to a posh tasting room at the Vintners Village in the Yakima Valley town of Prosser, within walking distance of about a dozen other wineries. The vineyard is near the town of Basin City, nearly

Tom is a very friendly and handsome boy who loves to be petted. He likes to watch the birds and squirrels at the feeders. Tom likes to be close to you and get as much attention as he can. He loves chin rubs and backscratching. Tom will be hanging out at the Poulsbo Petco this week hoping to meet a new family of his own.

is 185 acres in size, and the brothers manage another vineyard that is about 220 acres in size. Additionally, they farm 215 acres of tree
fruits. Not long ago, they purchased a five-acre block on venerable Red Mountain, adjacent to Fidelitas. The block is unplanted, as the Gamaches wait for water to arrive through a project with the Kennewick Irrigation District. Gamache sells grapes to about 20 different wineries, and about 10 percent of its grapes is used for the estate label. Here are a few Gamache wines we’ve tasted in recent weeks. Check with your favorite wine merchant or order directly from the winery (509-786-7800). n Gamache Vintners 2006 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $28. This big Cab from estate fruit is a beauty, opening with aromas of blackberries, black cherries, raspberries, mint, vanilla and pomegranates. The ample palate is dominated by ripe black fruit, including black cherries, as well as dark chocolate, blueberries

Taking care of certain foot conditions early will prevent them from developing into problems that are more serious, uncomfortable, and difficult to treat. Ingrown toenails may seem minor to many people, but they can pierce the skin and allow bacteria to enter. Pay attention to heel pain too, as it can indicate a fracture, a tight Achilles tendon, or a pinched nerve. It can also be the result of tissue inflammation. Pain in the back of the foot behind the ankle could be Achilles tendonitis. If not treated early, it could get worse and the tendon can rupture. Have ankle sprains treated early, or they can contribute to instability in the ankle. New patients welcome and seen on the same day. Early & late appointments available. Most insurances accepted.

and olives on the finish. The bold tannins are well integrated through the lengthy finish. n Gamache Vintners 2006 Gamache-Champoux Vineyard Select Cabernet Sauvignon, Columbia Valley, $40. The Gamache brothers and Horse Heaven Hills grape grower Paul Champoux are family, so they combine grapes annually for this reserve-level Cabernet Sauvignon. It is loaded with dark fruit, including aromas of blackberries, black cherries and dark plums. It’s a big wine on the palate, with flavors of black cherries, plums and black pepper. Opulent tannins back all the fruit and make it approachable in its youth, though we think it also will age beautifully for the next decade or so. n Gamache Vintners 2006 Estate Syrah, Columbia Valley, $28. This stunning Syrah opens with big, jammy aromas of ripe blackberries, dark plums, boysenberry jam and a

The tannins and acidity do a nice job of backing up the ample fruit. n Gamache Vintners 2007 Estate Malbec, Columbia Valley, $28. Malbec, a minor red grape in Bordeaux, has become a major force in Washington the past few years, not unlike the growth in Syrah a decade ago. This example opens with aromas of black cherries, ripe plums, pipe tobacco and cedar, followed by flavors of purple fruit such as plums and huckleberries, as well as ripe Bing cherries and black pepper. It is beautifully balanced with integrated tannins, leading to a lengthy finish. n Gamache Vintners 2008 Estate Boulder Red, Columbia Valley, $18. This blend of Bordeaux varieties adds a splash of Syrah (8 percent). The aromas include dried Bing cherry, citrus, cedar and a bit of leafiness from the Cabernet Franc (16 percent). It’s lively and juicy on the palate with Marionberries and plums. Subdued tannins give way to a pinch of ground pepper in the finish. — Andy Perdue and Eric Degerman are the editors of Wine Press Northwest magazine.

new worship language: Catholics in Bremerton experienced a whole new language of worship at Mass Nov. 27. Along with changes to familiar and cyclical hymns, the liturgy — or words that are said at Mass — have also undergone significant revisions. “The Lord be with you,” said Rev. Derek Lappe to his parish at the first advent Sunday Mass. “And also with-” started a few members of the congregation, their habit to
reply with the familiar phrase “and also with you.” But they quickly correct themselves with the new liturgy, “And with your spirit.” The Vatican approved the changes in April 2010, and churches were granted the power to incorporate some of the new phrases as early as September of this year. Our Lady Star of the Sea parish in Bremerton began replacing the most familiar sacred phrases five weeks See AROUND, Page 9

Vasquez and other parish members have taken the changes in stride. Some have even eagerly anticipated the change, believing that the language brings a more poetic and spiritual tone to Mass. — BremertonPatriot.com
Central Kitsap reporter Glass artist restores his-
toric building: When glass artist Lisa Stirrett first walked into the old glass factory on the corner of Silverdale Way and Bucklin Hill, she saw more than a crumbling building. The renowned Pacific Northwest artist, best known locally for her work at the Bremerton ferry terminal, said that many in the community viewed the old Dahl Glass Company as an “eyesore” which was too run down to be left standing in the middle of the busy thoroughfare on Silverdale Way, just south of Bucklin Hill Road. “It was ready to fall down when we saw it, but I jumped up and down anyway. I was so excited. My dad, who is actually a realtor, laughed at
me,” Stirrett said. The building itself is a piece of Silverdale history. Its wood-truss ceiling and domed exterior are a blast from the architectural past, and its previous owners were prominent figures in the town’s commerce in the 1940s and 1950s. Stirrett said it was paramount that she keep everything as historically accurate as possible. That means keeping the look of the original wood ceilings, reinforced by a network of trusses. She will also leave the original half divider walls and a vintage spindle to crank open the garage door. — CentralKitsapReporter. com

The annual 5K and 1 mile race was open to military families, all commands, Defense Department civilians, retirees, and anyone else with base access and the need to run. “We had an overwhelming number of pre-registrations.
When I heard that snow was forecasted, I thought, ‘Oh, no!’ ” said Julia Krassin, Bangor fitness manager. Of those on the course, a large number were military dependent families with infants in strollers and kids running alongside their parents. “November is the month of military families, so we made sure there was a new family division included,” said Lisa Bertolacci, event coordinator. While many ran for fun, just as many ran for glory.

Mathes wins mayor’s race by five votes, prompting manual recount: Tim Matthes won the election for Port Orchard mayor by five votes. The Kitsap County Auditor’s office certified the election results Tuesday morning, and the final tally shows Matthes with 2,442 votes
From left, Tim Matthes is leading Port Orchard Mayor Lary Coppola by five votes. Tim Kelly / Port Orchard Independent
and incumbent Mayor Lary Coppola with 2,437. The Auditor’s Office website posted this statement: “The Port Orchard mayoral race is separated by less than 1/4 of 1 percent which means we will be conducting a manual recount.” The Independent called Matthes for his reaction to the election outcome Tuesday morning, but the call went to his voicemail. Coppola, reached by phone Tuesday morning, said, “There is going to be a recount, and we’ll just see what happens.” At first, he said he would reserve his comments “until the outcome is final.” However, he added, “We ran a clean campaign all the way through, start to finish,
and I have to believe that integrity wins, and if integrity was easy, everybody would do it.” Asked how he would spend the rest of the day Tuesday, he responded, “I’m still the mayor until Dec. 31. I’ve got work to do.” County elections manager Dolores Gilmore said the recount process will begin Dec. 5, when ballots will be retrieved and sorted by precinct. The next day, the actual recounting of ballots will be done, with two people checking each ballot. Two matching counts of each precinct’s ballots are required before the next precinct is counted. — PortOrchardIndependent.com

Editor’s note: This is part one of a four-part series by local writer Ron Corcoran. By RON CORCORAN SPECIAL TO KITSAP WEEK
I
t is unlikely that you are familiar with the 3rd century Turkish man who became history’s first “annual gift-giver.” Yes, the heritage of today’s Santa Claus has been an untold story — until now — and, as you are about to discover, it is one with a few surprises. By reading this story, you will learn how several of today’s Christmas traditions began — and why. So, here we go … The story of annual giftgiving begins more than 1,700 years ago in the old city of Myra in the country of Turkey. Have you ever heard of the city of Myra? Probably not. It doesn’t exist as a city anymore. However, that old city does have a unique linkage to our present day Christmas celebrations and pageantry. Historical records of that era indicate that rock relics discovered about 2,200 years ago in the City of Myra were found to exude a clear, watery liquid with a
fragrance similar to that of rosewater. This liquid was believed to possess mystical powers and was very highly-valued. Because of the name of the city (Myra) in which these water-producing rock relics were discovered, the liquid was named myrrh. Have you heard of myrrh? Of course you have. It’s known to have been given as a special gift (along with gold and frankincense) by a far-originated, camel-propelled, westwardleading, star-following royalty who traveled in a threesome. These three men were also reputed to be wise. Fourth century Turkish history then relates the story of a very wealthy man
who lived in Myra — a man who (because he had experienced such good fortune in his life) wanted to become generous. So he decided to disperse some of his wealth to the less-fortunate residents of his city. Of particular significance, the man decided to disseminate gifts of considerable value: gold coins, other precious metals and fabrics, and fragrant substances — even a little myrrh. The man created a giftdistribution plan that was both unique and memorable. In fact, the manner in which his gifts were to be distributed 1,700 years ago just might sound a little familiar to you. His plan entailed an
itinerary of traipsing from rooftop-to-rooftop throughout the city, descending (inside) the chimneys of his intended gift-receivers, and leaving gifts in front of each domicile’s fireplace. As regards the schedule, the man’s gifting was to be done late at night while the recipients were fast asleep. (Today, such activities might be referred to by our local law enforcement officials as “third-degree felonious breaking and entering” but, again, this was 1,700 years ago.) And so, the man’s first rooftop “gift-giving” escapade was conducted, and was so successful that he decided to do the same thing again next year. And the year after that. And the year after that. — Next week: The first guy who wore red and white.
