Saying ‘so long’ after years behind the counter Medication

policy a tough pill for schools to swallow

After 27 years, it’s the final inning for Team Sports store BY LESLIE KELLY

If you ask Ralph Rogers what he’ll miss most when he closes his business, Team Sports, at the end of the month, it doesn’t take him long to answer. “The customers,” Rogers said. “The people have been so great. I’ve had fathers bring in their kids for stuff who I’ve known since they were kids themselves. Their fathers brought them here, way back when.” Rogers has owned and operated Team Sports in East Bremerton for 27 years. And, although he’s quite a sports fan, he never intended to open a sporting goods store. It was after a career in the U.S. Navy that Rogers settled in Bremerton and bought an embroidery shop formerly known as J&J Embroidery. That shop, in Brownsville, had been in business since 1964. Soon, Rogers found himself doing screen printing uniforms and t-shirts for many own the local Little League teams and school teams. “They’d come in to get their uniforms and the coaches would tell me that they couldn’t find the right balls

among the funding options “We have only two options and those are increasing the sales tax or using the motor vehicle excise tax,” he said. “That’s all the legislature has allowed for us because we are operating at a Public Transportation Benefit District.” What has been discussed is a twotenths of one percent increase in sales tax, which would have to be approved by voters before taking affect. And Clausen also assured those attending that any fast foot ferry program would include the option of reservations. “We used that when we had the trial run in 2012 and we have that ability,” he said. Aaron Matthews, of Port Orchard, said reservations are needed to guarantee that he would get a seat on the

A change in the Bremerton School District’s medication at school policy, that would allow students to take their medications on their own, raised some eyebrows at a school board meeting last week. The board has been addressing its medication policy off and on since September. Currently, if a student has a prescribed medication that has to be taken during the school day, it must be administered by a school nurse of designated staff person. With the proposed new policy, students would be permitted “under limited circumstances to carry and self-administer medications necessary to their attendance at school,” the policy reads. At last week’s meeting, John Grant, supervisor of special services for the district, gave board members a list of more than 1,000 medications that students within the district are prescribed, including allergy, seizure, depression, anxiety and headache medications. Board members were told that in the 2013-2014 school year, the district dealt with 4,800 administrative prescription orders for students. “It’s staggering,” said Grant, adding that of the 4,600 students currently enrolled in the district, 3,936 have one or more health or medical concerns. In order for a student to be given a medication during school, a parent must sign a consent form and the drug must be administered by a delegated staff member with training or a registered school nurse. If the proposed policy is instituted, some students could carry and take their prescription drugs themselves without supervision. Teachers and principals who attended the meeting said they had concerns about students sharing medications. “How do we deter them from doing this?” one teacher asked. School board member Alyson Rotter said she thought the terminology

He’ll close his business at the end of the month after declining sales due to online competition. or bats or socks,” Rogers said. “I’d tell them ‘Let me see if I can get them for you.’ “Pretty soon I was special ordering so much stuff that I thought ‘Why don’t I just open a store?’” That was 1999. And since, his

store has moved several times and at one time, he had a store and two other t-shirt shops. In 2011, the store moved to the Redwood Plaza on Ridell Road just west of the intersection of Highway 303 and Wheaton Way.

“When we moved in here, we thought we had a great location,” he said. “There was so much traffic in and out of this shopping center and lots of walk-in traffic in the store.” SEE TEAM SPORTS, A9

Public gets to hear plans for Kitsap Transit foot ferries BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

It was the public’s turn on Monday to hear about Kitsap Transit’s plans to bring fast foot ferry service back to Bremerton. And some of them told Kitsap Transit that they needed to do a better job of marketing the idea. “Look around,” said Jamie Forsyth, a Bremerton resident. “This room should be full. Why are there so few people here? Your outreach is not very good. People didn’t know about this meeting.” About 20 people attend the 90 minute meeting Monday at the Kitsap Conference Center. They were told that the service could be in operation in Bremerton as soon as the fall of 2015. But in order for that to happen, funding has to be secured, and could

After a presentation by Kitsap Transit officials and consultants, a few questions were asked, most of them dealing with funding for the fast foot ferry. Several people said they didn’t want their property taxes

to increase to fund the service. Others said they thought the foot ferry system needed to have guaranteed reservations or else it would’t work. Addressing the funding, Kitsap Transit Executive Director John Clausen said property taxes aren’t

Human trafficking tied to drug operation The alleged leaders of a human trafficking ring busted in Bremerton on Nov. 13 have been charged by the Pierce County prosecutor with several human-trafficking related charges. Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist charged Marteze Ravoine Clair, 27, and Erica Jade Cromartie, 23, with human trafficking in the first degree, leading organized crime, promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor, and promoting prostitution in the second degree. Facing charges in Kitsap County are Erin Hart, Matthew Gary, Mitchell Fligor, and Raynaldo Medellin. According to Lindquist, Clair is a well-known East Side Piru gang member. During a seven-month period, beginning in November 2013, Clair and Cromartie allegedly posted 226 prostitution ads on Backpage.com, promoting the services of multiple women and girls. Clair and Cromartie allegedly pocketed the money that the victims earned during each “date.” The girls were allegedly given drugs and threatened with violence, according to Lindquist. Cromartie allegedly assisted Clair by recruiting girls, training them and collecting money. “Street gangs are moving into pimping to supplement their drug sales,” Lindquist said in an announcement of the charges. “We are vigorously prosecuting these cases — particularly those involving underage girls. Eliminating human trafficking is one of the goals of our gang unit and our office.” In the Nov. 13 bust, 11 suspected adult victims — the youngest of whom is reportedly 18 — were contacted, booked and released. According to Bremerton Police Chief Steve Strachan, booking adult victims is a best practice for helping them to exit prostitution, “so they are in the system but offered services.” Four children belonging to a suspect were turned over to Child Protective Services. A 3-month-old was brought along by a trafficker; two 7-year-olds and a 14-year-old were left at a nearby location by their mother, a victim. One of the suspects was also jailed for possession of methamphetamine. More than 40 law enforcement officers and agents from 19 agencies participated in the Nov. 13 bust.

Local Firefighter’s Provide “Coats For Kids”

There are 79 school kids feeling a whole lot warmer in Kitsap County, thanks to local firefighters. The Kitsap Firefighter’s Benevolent Fund, comprised of Professional Firefighter’s from Local 437 and Local 2819, recently distributed new winter coats at West Hills S.T.E.M. Academy in Bremerton as part of

the National Firefighter’s Coats for Kids campaign. This campaign is a program through Operation Warm and their commitment to fight poverty. The members of the Kitsap Firefighter’s Benevolent Fund are dedicated to the children in the communities we serve. With over 16.5 million children living in poverty in the United States, they wanted to do something to help keep some local children warm this winter. West Hills S.T.E.M. Academy was chosen due to its high rate of reduced fare or free lunches within the three school districts our jurisdictions serve. The coats are American Made and $2,652 was raised through the Benev-

olent Fund and Locals 437 and 2819 to cover the costs. Twenty coats that were leftover from last year’s campaign were also donated to the school so that administrators could hand them out as needed.

Association of Realtors to say thanks to Sheriff

The Kitsap County Association of Realtors will host a retirement celebration for Kitsap County Sheriff Steve Boyer, County Auditor Walt Washington and County Assessor Jim Avery at noon Dec. 3 at the Kitsap Golf & Country Club. Cost to attend is $25 and reservations are required. Call 360692-8852 to reserve a seat. The public is invited to the event.

Shop local this year

In surveys on BremertonPatriot.com and CentralKitsapReporter. com in 2013, a majority of respondents said they planned to do most of their holiday shopping locally or in Kitsap County. That was good news. It made a difference to our local economy. And we hope to see it repeated this year. “Shop local” is no mere commercial slogan. During the recession and recovery, we were reminded how important we are to each other. Money we spend here stays here. It pays local wages, puts food on local tables, pays local rents and mortgages. It’s passed on in the form of donations to nonprofits that make up our local safety net. It generates sales tax revenue, which supports public services that benefit you. Do your holiday shopping elsewhere, and your money stays elsewhere. Shopping local makes sense in other ways. First, you know who you’re buying from and often you’ll purchase an item that is made locally. Second, local items are unique. Locally produced art, books and clothing reflect the wealth of creativity in our area. You’ll find local food products, as well as award-winning vintages from Kitsap wineries, in local stores. If you’re looking for eco-friendly items, Kitsap offers more than its share. Try a gift certificate to a local gallery, store, or dinner at a local restaurant. This area is a world-class destination known for its natural beauty. Consider a donation in a family member’s name to the Kitsap Humane Society, Central Kitsap Food Bank, Bremerton Foodline, or the Kitsap County Historical Society. There’s always the Navy Museum in Bremerton, the Kitsap Salvation Army, Kitsap Rescue Mission, or Hospice of Kitsap County. Make the donation to the charity that means something to the recipient. And, of course, shopping in Central Kitsap and Bremerton comes with all the holiday cheer and lights and fun that accompany the season. So, skip the ferries, freeways and fill-ups. There is a lot to enjoy — and share — in shopping locally. (And skip shopping out of the area online. While convenient, it doesn’t help support Kitsap businesses, unless the businesses you are shopping online are from here.) We wish you all the best this holiday season.

Giving more and keeping less The coming holiday season can bring out the best and the worst of any situation. Certain family members that, as much as you love to see them again, you also love counting the seconds until you see their backsides headed out your door. After waiting until at least the day after Thanksgiving to start putting up your Christmas decorations, you may find that you are already exhausted and somewhat jaded from being visually assaulted with retail store displays that had holly, reindeer and snowflakes in your face since before Halloween was even over. The competitive commercialism of the holidays is a monster that needs to constantly be beaten back into a submissive role. It is one thing to enjoy the delights of the season and yet another to use it as an excuse for gluttony at every level. Over the past few seasons, I have written about how our family enjoys giving experiences instead of stuff. This year it will be a week-long spring trip to the Grand Canyon and a NASCAR race in Las Vegas. It will be the first time for all of us to visit one of the greatest national parks that resides within the United States. We will make memories of a family experience that will last much longer than the temporary wrapping and the bows

Colleen Smidt under the tree. Most of the small gifts we do get for each other, certain family members or a small group of friends will be purchased locally from some of our favorite vendors. There will also be a few larger purchases from the small but important group of regional and national chain stores that are pushing back and keeping their doors firmly closed on Thanksgiving Day in appreciation of the hard work of their employees and their families. We also plan to increase what we donate this holiday season to others, instead of focusing on what we keep or receive for ourselves. Do we really need all of that stuff? Can we, instead, make the season of giving, into a true season of giving to others?

Here are a few of the organizations we will be helping this year: The Bremerton Foodline is always at the top of my list of recommendations for donations. Whether it is food or cash, what goes to Bremerton Foodline is distributed locally to families right here in our community. (www. bremertonfoodline.org.) The Salvation Army is another local safety net many members of our community rely on to get them through the worst of the winter months. That spare dollar or the handfuls of change that you can put into the red kettles which are manned by dedicated volunteers throughout town go on to make a huge difference. (www.bremertonsalvationarmy.org.) Lastly, there is always Toys For Tots. The call has gone out this year that toys for infants and teens are sorely needed. New unwrapped items can be dropped off at the Kitsap Mall, ToysRUs and other locations that can be found through their website. (www.toysfortots.org/donate/toys. aspx.)

Preparing for the holidays is hard on seniors For most of us, the holidays are a wonderful time to share the joys of family life and friendship. But for many older adults the holidays can be highly stressful, confusing, or even depressing if their mental, physical and emotional needs are not taken into account. If you, or a senior member of your family have any physical, emotional, or mental challenges, here are some simple tips that can help you (and them) enjoy the holiday season: Stroll down memory lane. Holidays provoke memories, which can be especially powerful in the later years of life. Older people whose memories are impaired may have diffi-

important for the young as well—children enjoy hearing about how it was “when your parents were your age.” Using picture albums, family videos and music, even theme songs from old radio or TV programs, can help to stimulate memories and encourage older seniors to share their stories and experiences. Plan ahead. If older family members tire easily or are vulnerable to over-stimulation, limit the number of activities they are involved in or the length of time they are included. The noise and confusion of a large family gathering can lead to irritability or exhaustion, so schedule time for a nap, if necessary, and consider

designating a “quiet room” where an older person can take a break. Avoid embarrassing moments. Try to avoid making comments that could inadvertently embarrass an older friend or family member who may be experiencing shortterm memory problems. If an older person forgets a recent conversation, for example, don’t make it worse by saying, “Don’t you remember?” Create new memories. In addition to memories, seniors need new things to anticipate. Add something new to the holiday celebration, or volunteer for your family to help others. Enjoy activities that are free, such

as taking a drive to look at holiday decorations, or window-shopping at the mall or along a festive downtown street. Beat the blues. “Holiday blues” are feelings of profound sadness that can be provoked by all the activities of the holiday season. Seasonal blues can have a particular impact in the lives of older people. Depression is a dangerous and life-threatening illness in older people. Tragically, suicide rates increase with age, specifically for older men. Depression is not a normal part of aging and should never be ignored or written off. Monitor medications and alcohol. If you have senior

family members, be sure to help them adhere to their regular schedule of medications during the frenzy of the holidays. Also, pay attention to their alcohol consumption during holiday parties and family gatherings. Alcohol can provoke inappropriate behavior or interfere with medications. Remember … older family members with special needs can get lost in the shuffle and chaos of happy family gatherings. So, with all the hustle and bustle of the season, just remember to be sensitive and loving. And plan ahead.

doesn’t have enough food? “Food insecurity means an empty refrigerator. Food insecurity means soda instead of milk. Food insecurity means a child coming to school hungry and unable to focus. Poverty may not look exactly the same in our country as it does in a war-torn region or a developing country, but it is affecting our children and their futures. Sometimes, working parents have to choose between rent and food, medicine and food, or gas and food. Brandt suggests four things you can do to help prevent childhood hunger. • Support non-profit organizations like Feeding America (www.FeedingAmerica.org). Previously known as Second Harvest, Feeding America is a national network of food

banks that feeds more that 37 million people through food pantries, soup kitchens and shelters. It’s the nation’s leading organization for countering hunger and educating the public about this crisis. (Feeding American is recognized by the Food Lifeline name in and around Seattle and supplies food to food banks in Kitsap County.) “Public awareness is important,” Brandt said. “Many people simply do not know that we’re surrounded every day by hungry children.” • Talk to your children about childhood hunger and how they can help. “When I was a child I opened my best friend’s refrigerator to get a snack and was shocked to see it held almost nothing,” she

said. “I didn’t know what to do.” As an adult, Brandt said she’s amazed by the number of people who share with her their own stories of childhood food insecurity. “Rather than sheltering your children from this sad fact of American life, talking to them about it can help nurture their compassion and empathy,” she said. “And there’s plenty they can do to help, from making posters to raise awareness, to organizing a food drive at school.” Taking action teaches children that they do have the power and ability to change the world for the better. • Don’t make childhood hunger a political issue. Of course, childhood hunger doesn’t exist in a vacuum;

issues like welfare, minimum wage, income inequality and access to health care – all of which are heavily politicized – surround the problem. Whatever your take on these topics, realize that no matter the decisions a parent has made in his or her lifetime, children are innocent and have no control of their family’s circumstances. • Volunteer with your family at a shelter or food pantry during the busy holiday season. While serving or cooking food for a holiday-themed meal at a shelter during Thanksgiving or Christmas does not solve the larger problem, it will affect every person whose life you touch that day. Your efforts and kind words can become a fond, lifelong memory for

a child, or remind adults that others care and they’re not alone. Volunteering also has personal benefits, not the least of which is knowing that, despite whatever problems you’re facing, you were able to help someone else.

lies while removing this critical support for millions of low-income children and their families. This, on top of proposals for nearly $600 billion in new tax breaks for corporations. Did you know that the cost to the average tax payer per year for food stamps is $36, while the cost to the average tax payer for corporate subsi-

dies is $870? From 1980 to 2012, the median U.S. household income grew 9 percent, while corporate profits grew 239 percent. Important improvements to the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and Child Tax Credit (CTC), which lifted 8.8 million people out of poverty in 2013 - are set to expire if Congress

doesn’t act. Unlike welfare, families and individuals must be employed to receive EITC benefits. Statistics show that the EITC succeeds at helping families get back on their feet such that EITC recipients pay more in federal income taxes over time than they receive in EITC benefits.

Most EITC recipients get the credit for two years or less. Our new Congress needs to address the needs of all of us, not just the top 10 percent. Improvements to the EITC and the CTC need to be made permanent.

Sad statistics about American’s hungry children BY LOIS BRANDT SPECIAL TO SOUND PUBLISHING

While most Americans will worry about eating too much this holiday season, 16 million of our country’s children live in households that struggle to afford food, according to a 2012 report from the United States Department of Agriculture. “We hear about ‘food insecurity’ quite a bit, especially after the 2008-09 economic crash, but I think most people don’t have a clear picture of what that means,” said Lois Brandt, a former Peace Corps volunteer and author of “Maddi’s Fridge,” (www. MaddisFridge.com), a children’s picture book that asks the question: what do you do if your best friend’s family

Dear Congress ...

LETTER

I noticed a recent article where AAA Washington kicks off their annual donation drive to collect toiletries for local shelter and food banks. In fact, 277,670 visits were made to eight Kitsap food banks in 2013. The U.S. census tells us that one in seven children in Kitsap County have been growing up in poverty. This compares with one in five kids nationally who live in poverty. Meanwhile, this summer the U.S. House of Representatives passed an expansion of the Child Tax Credit for upper-income fami-

Lois Brandt is a children’s fiction writer whose work has appeared in Highlights. Her new book “Maddi’s Fridge,” is the first picture book to address child hunger in the U.S. It was inspired by Brandt’s childhood memory of opening her friend’s refrigerator and finding only condiments and a lunch milk carton her friend had saved from school for her little brother. Some of the proceeds from her book sales will be given to hunger relief.

That old 1-2-3 punch of Old Man Winter returns This time two weeks ago, Old Man Winter made an unexpected arrival and pummeled much of Maine with a foot of snow. In his wake: downed power lines, crippled trees and heaters that came to an abrupt stop. I must say, the Old Man has terrible timing. His tantrum came on the heels of Halloween and setting

back the clocks. It was a one-two-three punch of circumstances. First was Halloween. I actually offered my neighbor cash to take the kids to run laps the morning after Halloween. Second, the time-switcharoo made those same kids get up at 4 a.m. With all this nonsense, no one even saw the Old Man’s approach.

they always do: they left the shovels in the yard so that two hours later they were buried under 6 inches of snow. At 2 p.m., the lights flickered one last time, and then they went out. The hum of the heater in the basement abruptly stopped. And in the winter, everyone knows two things: (1) precipitation that makes noise is bad, and (2) a heater that goes silent is worse. The kids didn’t care about the lack of heat or lights until 4 p.m. That’s when, thanks to the time change, it started to get dark outside. Now we were all inside, looking at each other as the darkness set in.

By 6 p.m., the kids were frantic, mostly because they realized I couldn’t make the hot spaghetti I had promised them. In the dark, I made peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, and (brace yourself) accidentally grabbed the crunchy peanut butter instead of smooth. This mattered much more than the fact that I couldn’t see well enough to know if there was mold on the bread. The house was now 50-degrees and we had wet clothes in the washing machine, but the bloodcurdling scream from our kitchen was, “Nooooooooo, I refuse to eat this crunchy peanut butter!” The kids ate Halloween candy instead. Except no one touched the Almond Joys. We weren’t that desperate. Yet. Back in the living room, we tried to entertain ourselves. I gave each of the kids a flashlight in case they needed to venture away from the candles to use the restroom. “Stop turning on the

flashlights,” I said. “You’re wasting the battery.” “Look at this cool Bat signal I can make on the ceiling,” Owen said to Ford. “Not with the flashlight,” I said. “What are we going to do if those batteries run out?” “Look at my face when I put the light under my chin,” Lindell said to his brothers. Owen, apparently not listening to me, flicked on the light again. “Look, it’s a giant rabbit on the ceiling.” That’s when I lost it. “Why can’t I trust you with a flashlight? Do you have to push the button? Why does a 12-year-old have to push the button?” The boys looked scared. Then Ford said, “Seriously guys, why have we resorted to anarchy so quickly?” It happens so fast. I mean, I wasn’t thinking about work, laundry, or even personal hygiene anymore. In just one day, I had gone into survival mode. We all slept huddled together in one bed for warmth. Lindell cried when his brothers explained what

armageddon means, and then he panicked when he thought his eyelashes froze. Eventually, we decided we’d had enough of the barbarism of no TV or Nintendo, so I made a reservation at a hotel. The temperature inside the house was 40 degrees. Normally, I don’t let the kids pack for themselves. Now I remember why. While I ran around gathering snacks, they threw swim trunks, sunglasses, favorite board games and 14 pairs of underwear into their suitcase. There was a slight struggle getting the car out of the garage, and our gas tank was nearly on empty, but we soldiered on toward the hotel. And just as we turned into the parking lot, our neighbor sent a text: “Power is back on!” All at once, our everyday reality hit us. Lindell had homework. I needed to get to work. Our laundry was still in the basement. And when we got home, three little flashlights lay on the couch, pointed at the wall, and switched on.

Those who come out are asked to bring food items for the Central Kitsap Food Bank and toys for the Toys For Tots campaign. Items will be collected at the John L. Scott Silverdale office at 8382 Silverdale Way N.W. Since 1954, a very tall Christmas tree has illuminated the skies for the holidays in Silverdale, thanks to a coordinated effort of dedicated community volunteers, Silverdale Rotary, Silverdale Dandy Lions, and Kiwanis. Brothers Rich and Roland Arper have continued the tradition of their father — legendary Silverdale Rotarian Bob Arper — and are the major force behind the project. The tree is now 128 feet tall. On Oct. 12, a work party cleaned up the blackberries around the tree, spread mulch, and lowered half of the 12 light strings for maintenance, changing out bulbs and fixing the wiring. Several Silverdale Rotarians participated. Silverdale Rotary Club has provided the funds for light bulb replacements since 1955.

Local shops offer unique gifts for all

BY SERAINE PAGE AND LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com Don’t be the lame gift giver who dashes out at the last minute to buy a gift card for purchases at a big-box retailer. Instead, try planning ahead and keep dollars here by shopping local. The receiver of your gift and the shop owner will thank you for being so thoughtful. Here’s a roundup of local stores offering items that likely won’t be found elsewhere. Take your list and check it twice, there’s gifts for all those you know, both naughty and nice.

FOR THE EARTH LOVER Stop in at F.R.O.G. Soap to pick up yummy smelling soaps for anyone on your gift list. F.R.O.G. stands for From Reclaimed Oil and Glycerin, and shop owner Laura Kneib is happy to tell you about her environmentally-friendly process of making soap. Most everything in her shop has been recycled in some manner, and she even packages her items from recycled materials. Last year, Kneib sold hundreds of her soap wrapped in a washcloth to look like a reindeer, priced at $9.95. With a red pom pom nose and wiggly eyes, the reindeers are a good go-to gift. “They’re chipper,” she said. For those who can’t choose just one or two scents, Kneib can make customizable baskets depending on what a customer wants. With a price in mind, she can help a customer pick out items based on their budget. She’s got most every scent anyone can think of and welcomes folks to sniff away. Peppermint soap tends to be a favorite around the holidays, Kneib said. This year she’ll have green soap in the shape of a Christmas tree to add a special touch to baskets. And if feeling brave enough, check out her daily special which may require singing a favorite show tune to get 20 percent off a purchase.

Visit F.R.O.G. Soap at 530 Fifth Street in Bremerton. Call 360-3370934 for more information.

always, she will offer customers who walk through her doors tea and coffee. The opportunity to peruse without pressure is the main goal, and if it takes some time for someone to make their way through her shop, she understands.

FOR THE HOMEBODY

“I want them to explore the experience,” she said. “It’s just a really pleasing atmosphere to take in.”

If there’s someone on your list who loves all things home decor, Real Deals is the place to go. Owner Vicki McRoberts welcomes guests at the front door with a smile and her expertise as a “retail therapist.”

Visit Real Deals Thursday through Saturday only at 5960 State Highway 303 N.E., Suite 160 in Bremerton. Call 360-479-3325 for more information.

While customers may be afraid to touch the delicate displays, McRoberts encourages them to ask her for assistance. If someone you know has a blank wall that needs to be filled, McRoberts has a variety of special decor to fill the spot. Clueless husbands may get some assistance this holiday season after a girls’ night out event will allow wives to tag favorite items at her location.

FOR THE CLASSY AND SASSY Anyone who enters Elizabeth’s House of Wax will be entertained by the atmosphere provided by owner Elizabeth Brooling. As a longtime local business owner, she’s excited to see customers at any time, but especially during the holidays.

This Christmas she anticipates she’ll sell a lot of clocks since she has all shapes and sizes.

“Truly, I’m able to have the advantage of saying what other people are thinking in their workplace and putting up what I think I would buy,” she said. “I think the holidays are a time of relationships and to touch base with your family and giving the unexpected.”

“I just love clocks, so I’ll have lots of different, unique clocks in here,” she said. “We have a clock in each display in some way, shape or form.” Clocks range in price from $10.99 to $150, depending on the size and extravagance. She has bedside clocks and huge wall clocks that take up a good chunk of space in a room.

While gift certificates are certainly available for waxing services, Brooling’s small office foyer provides an intimate shopping experience for buying unexpected and unique items.

Mirrors are another hot item she believes will sell quickly because of how much ambiance one can add to a room. During the holidays, a perfectly placed mirror above a mantle can be surrounded by fresh garland or other decorations. “To have a unique mirror reflects so much character if put in the right place,” she said.

Brooling offers Miche line products, which are customizable purses that have “shells” that can be changed daily. The handles, rings and color are all interchangeable, offering a new look each day. Those who own Miche bags can replace worn rings and handles and choose from a selection Brooling has in stock.

Real Deals mirrors range from $25 to $200 and come in all shapes, sizes and weights.

“It is good quality,” she said of the bags, which range from $60 to $80. “People like to change their purse shell all the time.”

McRoberts plans to host a shopping event Dec. 11-13, and as

Starting at $10 and up, Poo-Pourri is for avid bathroom users. Other than her main waxing services, Brooling’s Poo-Pourri display items are a big seller.

“I think we’re all so busy, that’s why it’s so hard to find something meaningful,” she said. “It’s nice you can get it and go if it’s nice and wrapped and looking beautiful.”

“They’re great stocking stuffers,” she said. “Royal Flush is probably the most popular (scent).”

Stirrett’s studio will be open on Black Friday at 8 a.m. with “misfit” items offered at a fraction of the regular price. Last year, customers were lined up outside her door standing in line covered in blankets, she said.

This year, for the first time ever, she invites the public to utilize her studio’s new “play area” to create glass art gifts. Those who have taken a class with Stirrett before can stop in on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Saturdays to create gifts for themselves or others for the holidays. Gift options vary in price for various projects including tea light holders and ornaments. “There’s so much you can do with the glass, it’s mind-boggling,” she said. “I’ve always made homemade gifts. We can go to the store any day of the week.

Five holiday baking tips from a pro

2014

BY SERAINE PAGE It’s time to break out the cookie cutters and rolling pins. While the task of holiday baking and cookie decorating may seem daunting, if done in the right setting with the right preparation, your cookies will likely come out with that extra dose of sweetness. Daleen Grimes, the owner of Sugar Studios, a specialty cookie shop in Old Town Silverdale, bakes huge batches of goodies every week. She loves being creative in the kitchen so much that she estimates she owns at least 350 cookie cutters.

sure to clean your kitchen prior to baking, pulling all necessary tools — bowls, spatulas, decorating tips and the like — out before starting. Bakers don’t need to disrupt the flow of production by searching cupboards with sticky fingers halfway through creating. “Be organized, neat and clean. Use the right tools for the job,” Grimes emphasizes.

DETAILS DO COUNT

Here, she offers her expert tips to getting the perfect cookie every time from snickerdoodles to basic sugar cookies.

One of the most important parts of baking comes down to planning ahead. That means having enough timers and improvising while baking. “It’s in the details,” Grimes says. “Don’t overbake. Cut your cookies thicker than you would think. Watch the timer. Be a slave to the timer.”

USE REAL INGREDIENTS

HOMEMADE IS BEST

Don’t pass on quality items, Grimes advises. When possible, use the freshest ingredients possible to have the most delicious cookies or baked goods. It’s the ingredients that will make or break taste when it comes down to it. “Do use real butter, real vanilla and fresh eggs,” she says. “If you can get them from the farmers market, do it.”

Since you’re baking goodies from scratch anyway, why not add a little extra step and create your own icing too? While the store-bought stuff is quick and easy, the flavors aren’t as tasty as some good ol’ homemade icing. “Real icing is so easy,” Grimes says. The secret to making it is meringue powder that isn’t over whipped, she says. She sells it to bakers who may not know where else to find it during the holidays when baking shelves empty quickly.

“It’s labor intensive. It’s fun,” she says. “Decorating cookies is easy.”

ONE LAST MORSEL ...

To keep the momentum going, even several batches in, Grimes advises holiday bakers to turn on some good tunes.

And when you can’t bear to look at one more cup of sugar or ounce of food coloring, just try to remember why you turned the oven on to 375 degrees in the first place. When a relative takes that first bite into a cookie or baked goody you made, just enjoy the look on their face as they eat your savory treat.

“I do adore Pandora,” she says. In her shop, she changes the music to match the mood of the shop or customers stopping in. She even has a special selection for the kiddos who come bounding through her doors for their sugar fix. “We do sing-a-longs,” she says. Whether you prefer classic Frank Sinatra Christmas music or a pop remix, turn up the radio and enjoy the memories being created in the kitchen.

“I feel like it’s giving love back to your family, back to your community,” Grimes says. “It’s the old adage: when family gathers, food is present. It is an easy thing to consume — the whole grab and go. It’s a special gift when presented.”

Let us help you make that perfect gift a perfect present under the tree. Custom Ribbon’s, wrapping paper, gift bags and more.

Brothers’ work helps keep Silverdale’s Christmas tree aglow

Santa will be back again this year to greet children in Silverdale — on Nov. 29 when the holiday tree will be lighted. There will be wagon rides and events for children at the Silverdale Library, as depicted here in 2013. File photos

BY CHRIS TUCKER ctucker@centralkitsapreporter.com What’s blue, green, yellow, red and 131 feet tall? It’s Silverdale’s Christmas tree, and brothers Rich and Roland Arper are two of the many folks who work to keep its colors shining bright. “We’ve worked on it, oh golly, I’m guessing 20 to 25 years,” said Roland, 59, a member of the Silverdale Dandy Lions Club. Rich, 66, is a member of Silverdale Rotary. The Arper brothers are carrying on a tradition put in place by their father, Bob, who was a Silverdale Rotarian, and Rotarian Hank Mann and Lions Club member Bill Seelow. The tree was first lighted in 1954, Rich said. “I was probably there then, but I don’t remember it,” he said. Rich recalled Seelow and Mann working on the tree until about 2006, when they both became ill. “For years, those two guys did basically almost everything,” Rich said. But when they were no longer able, everyone else had to step in and figure out how Seelow and Mann had done their work, Rich said. Keeping the tree illuminated is a team effort. About a dozen members from the Lions, Kiwanis and Rotary clubs work to repair the lights in September and October. They take down the lines, tape wires, and replace light bulbs and sockets. This year, they took down five lines of lights from the front for inspection, Roland said. “They (the lights) stay up all year,” Roland said. Additionally, Roland said a crew of six to eight kids from the Kitsap County Juvenile Detention Facility work to clear brush from the area.

Need help with Christmas this year?

Roland said the bulbs are 25-watt incandescents, “Just like the lightbulbs you’d put in a lamp in your house.” The tree had 12 strings of light. Each string had 34 bulbs for a total of about 288 lights. It also has a star at the top.

We have CASH for anyone!

“Some years, we’ve got to take the star down,” Rich said, which is more difficult than the rest of the lights due to the weight and size of the star. Two different types of LED lights have been explored as replacements for the incandescent lights. “The challenge we have is if we go to LED, the electrician tells us they’re actually a heavier bulb. The wiring won’t support the heavier bulb,” Roland said. That would mean completely rewiring the tree in order to support the extra weight. The wiring would be handmade, in lengths of 140 feet. One issue with commercially available LED lights, Roland said, was whether they would be bright enough to see from a distance. The cost of the LED bulbs, which Roland said was $4 per bulb, is also a factor. “We put some in several years ago and they weren’t very bright at all. And they were quite small. We got a new one this year that’s a full-size bulb but it seems like it is heavy because the base of an LED has some kind of electronics in it,” Rich said. This year marks the 60th year of the tree-lighting ceremony, on Nov. 29. Families can watch the holiday season start when Santa arrives to turn the lights on. Activities will start at 1 p.m. and conclude at 6 p.m.

Indianola woman is a ‘citizen of the world’ BY SANDY MCKAY SPECIAL TO SOUND PUBLISHING

During her lifetime, Indianola resident Pam Perry has traveled extensively to interesting, exciting and exotic locations around the world. Her parents, Linc and Fredi Perry, were “big travelers”, as she puts it. “They always inspired me with the with stories of places they had been,” she said. “They would also ask us — my brother Ken, my sister Andi and me —what we wanted from their travel destinations, their ports-of-call.” Pam and her siblings were always motivated to by their parents’ stories to learn about where they traveled. “It forced us to a lot of research to learn about those countries and what they produced that we might want,” Perry remarked. She has had a travel visa from the age of 12. As a family they went to Mexico, Japan, Hong Kong, and to Hawaii three times. “I have always had wanderlust,” she said. “We had a great family unit with weekly family meetings, organized by my dad, to keep up to date with everything that was happening to each of us,” Perry said. “I always felt loved and supported by my parents and siblings, and that continues to this day.” She had an extended family, as well. In her early childhood she was “adopted” by close friends of the family, Paula and Hal Hubbell. “Paula didn’t have any daughters, and her silliness made me laugh. And somehow I made her laugh,” she said. “We just really connected. I went to see them several times at their home in Santa Cruz, California, and they came up here for class reunions. Paula and I were pen

Much of Perry’s life has been dedicated to world travel inspired by her parents. pals in those days and we often sent involved letters to each other. Paula’s love for travel also inspired me. In fact, on my first solo trip that I took immediately after college, I planned it to begin in Costa Rica because I knew she would be there.” Perry worked from 1994 to 2008 in public relations for Parsons, a local ecological company that specializes in home, garden and green building, and for the EcoTeach Foundation, a Kitsap-based organization whose purpose is to save the Leatherneck sea turtles of Costa Rica. It also offers tours to that country. She helped EcoTeach set up five tours and as a result part of her payment was a trip to Costa Rica with her then-business associate. While they were there on that eco-tour she learned about the plight of the turtles. Their numbers had declined 85 percent in the past 20 years, she said, mostly due to fishing practices and poaching. On that trip, they discovered that in order to build an

education center it would be necessary to raise $50,000. At the center, locals could learn about the many threats to the turtles, and the Costa Rican students sent to the United States could learn to spread the all-important ecological message of a threatened species. That dollar amount seemed small to her, and it was rapidly decided that the goal was easily achievable. They came back to the U.S. and raised $60,000 by holding two separate auctions. The money was not only to build the center, but also to fund conservation efforts at Estacian Las Tortugas, a sea turtle conservation center located on the Caribbean coast of that country. “Our funds were tremendously useful to the center,” Perry said, “and since that time poaching was reduced from nearly 100 percent to around 10 percent, a remarkable achievement.” She is still involved with fund raising for the foundation as a board member. She also leads tours to the South American country during the Leatherback turtle nesting season to help raise awareness of the serious decimation of the reptiles, and helped to raise

additional funds to help support conservation efforts. Next year’s tour will take place from May 30 to June 11. Cost is $2,495. Of that money, $500 goes directly to support the efforts of EcoTeach. More information about this can be found by logging on to www. groups.ecoteach.com/foundation.

“l believe in the universe.” ~ Pam Perry, traveler When working for Parsons, Pam Perry became unhappy with her job. She had always dreamed of world travels and so, after giving a year’s notice, on Sept. 14, 2008, she departed — alone — on a flight to Nepal. She had always wanted to trek in the Himalayas, her primary reason for starting her trip there. She later volunteered with an organization — ANSWER Nepal — that finds American sponsors for Nepali children in order to pay for their private school education. Also, in Nepal, she met a

woman from The Netherlands. They decided to travel together for a while. The “while” turned out to be for five months, and their acquaintance resulted in a lifelong friendship. After that, Perry toured India. “I was just drawn to the colors, flavors, history and the people,” she said. “It was a remarkable experience. I’ve returned there several times.” Southeast Asia came next. She started in Thailand, proceeded to Laos, then Cambodia where she did more volunteer work. She spent the last week of the trip in Saigon with a friend, enjoying the delectable food of Vietnam. Perry also visited Poland — the land of her ancestors — with her mother whom she met there. “That was a wonderful experience,” Perry said. I visited the grave sight of my great-grandfather with my second cousin and just felt connected to the world, and especially my history in a way I never had before. It was remarkable.” She stopped briefly in Holland to meet her Dutch friend, then spent the final three months of her trip in Guatemala. She lived with a family there and studied Spanish with a private teacher for four hours every day. “It had been a dream of mine for years and finally I had time to do it,” she said. During the last month of her trip she also spent time at a meditation retreat at Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. “It gave me the chance to ‘be still’ and focus on my new life when I returned home,” she said. “I’d had so many experiences, knew that I had changed, but hadn’t been able to consciously incorporate the changes, or to think what my new life would look like.” She wrote a mission statement which read:: “To connect people with experiences that crash open their souls for the purpose of making change.” When she returned to the U.S. in August 2009 it was her goal to make that happen. While she had been traveling, the U.S. economy had tanked. The first bank crashed one day after she left the States, her dog Sadie had died, and her bank account was virtually empty. Upon her return, a new life was before her, but she had no idea how that would look. That changed in a hurry. Shortly after she got back to Washington she received a phone call from a man whom she had met in June 2008 in Seattle — before her big trip. He had previously contacted her when she was in Nepal and

southern India. He asked her if she would be interested in running a United States-based company called Grand Asian Journeys that would create, market and sell trips to Asia. Her answer was an immediate and resounding “yes.” The job description included selling the trips on the company’s Web site in Nepal, Bhutan and India, plus customized trips to visit these places and southeast Asia. “About 90 percent of my job is working with clients to make sure they are getting the experience they’re hoping for,” Perry said. “The other 10 percent of the time I travel, including leading tours, as well as scouting new locations.” This fall she is leading a tour to south India, featuring its cuisine and culture. After that she will do a scouting trip to Sri Lanka. Next year she plans to lead a 13-day trip to Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. When she “comes in for a landing” Perry enjoys the domestic scene with Keith, her significant other whom she met on a camping trip at the Fairholm campground at Crescent Lake in 2010, and their dog, Willow, a golden retriever. She enjoys getting out into nature and thinks the Olympia National Park is one of the most beautiful places in the world to hike, mountain bike, and go kayaking. She is also an avid cook, and enjoys spending time in the kitchen learning new recipes and new cuisines. And she enjoys playing creative word games with her six nieces and nephews. Her religious beliefs, she said, are simple. “I believe in the Universe,” she said. “I believe that if you are a good person you will enjoy love, support and community.” She also has strong political opinions. “I believe in government’s providing for the people,” she remarked. “And I am willing to pay more taxes for more services like health care, education, infrastructure, et cetera. I guess that makes me liberal.” And her philosophy of life? “Life is short. Have fun. Take care of your personal temple — your body. Love people. Laugh often. Ask questions. Listen. Don’t judge others, as you never know what is going on in their lives. Don’t engage with people who bring stress or unnecessary drama to your life.” She said spend your time with “people who nourish your soul. Learn. Read. And smile at strangers.”

TEAM SPORTS CONTINUED FROM A1

But after Chips casino moved out, and they stopped giving driver’s license tests at the Washington State Department Of Licensing office in the shopping center, walk-in customers dried up. It’s been that and the amount of business he’s lost to online stores that’s caused Rogers to decide to close the business. Many of the school teams in the area now buy their uniforms and supplies directly from Nike, Rogers said, and this year, the local Little League teams bought their uniforms online. “We didn’t even do one Little League team this year,” he said. While the business made it through tough economic times during the past five year, his sales have gone from $1 million a year to $300,000. He once had 13 employees and now has just three. One of those employees is his son, Matthew, who plans to open a new

boat and get to work on time. “I’m here because my intent is to use the ferry system,” he said. “I moved to Port Orchard because I didn’t want to live in Seattle. But I work in Seattle. “If a fast foot ferry is available, I’ll pay the extra to use it instead of the regular (car) ferry. But if I’m going to pay extra, I need to know that I will get on it every day. Otherwise I’m wasting money.” Monday’s meeting on passenger-only ferries between Bremerton and Seattle, followed an-invitation only meeting earlier this month where 100 civic and community leaders were briefed on the plans. Consultants from KPFF Consulting Engineers repeated their presentation at the public meeting this week. Plans include adding three foot ferry routes in Kitsap County. Routes include from Bremerton to Seattle, Kingston to Seattle and Southworth to Seattle. Each would run about 30 to 35 minutes and each route would have three roundtrips during the morning and afternoon commutes. Mike Anderson, consultant for KPFF and the former Washington State ferries director, recommended that

That shop will carry everything for disc golf, shirts and sweatshirts with the logos of local high schools, and all the local pro sports teams shirts.

As for the made-to-order embroidery and screen printing, Matthew plans to keep that, too. “He’s got that set up at his house right now,” the elder Rogers said. “It will go in the new place.”

Page A9

Rogers said one of the reasons why he tried so hard to keep the business going was that he hoped to pass it on to one of his children. “All four of my kids worked in the business,” he said. “Those are some of my best memories of having the business. But Matthew is the only one who really had any interest in it and I’m glad he’s doing what he’s doing — opening a new business that has great prospects.” Although Rogers is ready to take it easy, he does plan to help his son in the new store. “I want to be there to help until he gets his feet on the ground,” Rogers said. But Rogers won’t be in need of things to do to keep him busy. He’s active in Rotary and he’s in his 17th year as a commissioner for the Central Kitsap Fire & Rescue District. He started with the district as a volunteer firefighter 37 years ago. Rogers wife, Sandra, will mark 30 years with the Central Kitsap School District in 2015, and he hopes to be able to talk her into retiring so they

can spend some time together. One thing, however, he said he won’t be watching more sports than he does now. “I don’t think that’s possible,” he said. “I watch two games on Sunday and during baseball season, there’s a game every day.” Besides the Seahawks and the Mariners, he’s a Dallas Cowboys fan. “I grew up in Texas,” he said. “I got to be for the Cowboys.” As for himself, he played a bit of football back in high school for the Ysleta High School in El Paso. His letter jacket hangs on the store wall. He’s not sure if that will get moved to his son’s new store. But there are a couple of “things” that will go. One is a yellow lazy older border collie and lab mix named Siskiyou. The other is a brown Rhodesian mix named Chewy. “That dog is Matthew’s shadow,” Rogers said, of Chewy. “He’s right there where ever Matthew goes.” The going-out-of business-sale will continue through Nov. 30 at 1550 N.E. Riddell Rd., Suite 110.

I’m concerned about that.” Too, school teachers said they were concerned about whether students would take the appropriate amount of their medication, and if not, would the school district be liable.

And some said they were concerned that, if left up to the student, they might not take their medication. For example, students who now need medication at school for such conditions as diabetes are often reminded by teachers to

take their medications. The policy change, and the specific wording of it, is something that is being suggested by the Washington State School Directors Association. But board members were told that the district could

set more specific wording that would further define the “under limited circumstances” which would help clarify the policy. Superintendent Aaron Leavell said he could see that the policy was something that

needed further discussion and told the board that he would place it on an upcoming agenda so that the board could study the options more thoroughly.

the routes from Kitsap County to Seattle be phased in. Anderson also said that Kitsap Transit should own the service and contract with King County that already operates foot ferry routes to run it. KPFF was hired last April at a cost of $300,000 to prepare a comprehensive business plan and long-range strategy for a fast foot ferry. Costs are expected to be $44 million to set up the Kitsap Transit service and about $8 million a year to run it. The upfront costs would be paid from mostly federal transportation grants. Operation costs would need to come from local sales or excise taxes because fees for service will not cover the costs. Clausen acknowledged that the public meeting was put together hastily. But he said, he was trying to get public input prior to the holidays and prior to the Kitsap Transit board of directors January meeting where they will consider whether to go forward with plans for a fast foot ferry. “We always have a challenge about how to get the word out,” he said. If the plan goes forward, the routes would use boats similar to the one used in the trials in 2012. The 118-passenger Rich Passage 1 ran test trials from June to November 2012 that

showed it could travel at 37 knots (42.5 miles) per hour without damaging the shoreline. The vessel has since been in storage, waiting to be put into service. Eventually, three Rich Passage ferries would be needed

as all routes are put into service, Anderson said. The Bremerton route would get service first — as soon as October 2015 — because it has a boat and a dock ready to go. Following that, Kingston would be added in the fall of

2017 and then Southworth in 2023, after construction of a passenger terminal because there is not one currently at there. The transit board is expected to decide in January whether it wants to place a tax increase on an upcoming

ballot, possibly in February or next August. Similar sales-tax based efforts failed in 2003 and 2007. A final report by the consultants will be published and posted on the Kitsap Transit website later this month.

Military service is all in the family for the Quitanias BY LESLIE KELLY LKELLY@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

For Virginia Quitania of Bremerton, Veterans Day last week was both happy and sad. Happy, because of all the memories she has of her husband and children all of whom have served in the U.S. Military.

And sad, because she lost her daughter, Marianne, six years ago on Veterans Day. Her daughter died very unexpectedly of a brain aneurism. To honor Marianne and others in the family who have served, Virginia’s daughter Cathy QuitaniaPool of Tombal, Texas, made a collage of photos

of family members in uniform. Included are her father Eufemiano, sister Marianna, brother Michael, daughter Natalie, husband Jocks, and Cathy, herself, who also served. Cathy was in the Army for four years, and so was her husband. Her daughter is now carrying on the

family tradition, and began this summer at the Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland. Marianne, who was 39 when she died, served in the Army as did her husband, Pete Kilpatrick, who now lives in Arizona. Cathy’s brother Michael is career Army and is Battalion Commander

of the 3rd Battalion, 13th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. Army at Fort Jackson, South Carolina. Her father spent more than 20 years in the Navy. His work took him from Annapolis to San Diego, to Bremerton in 1976 where he and Virginia settled. “Military service was just part of us,” she said. “Myself, my brother and my sister went into the military to be able to go to college. We always thought we’d end up in the Navy like Dad, but we all were Army instead.” Hearing all the stories of service throughout her life

is what Cathy thinks influenced her daughter to think about the military. And now that her daughter is in the Navy, Cathy said it feels good. “With my sister having planned to go to Annapolis, and now my daughter is there, it’s like it’s come full circle.” Cathy’s mother is just plain proud. “I am especially proud of all of you for your dedicated service to our country — with all your heart and soul,” said Virginia, after seeing the collage.

Two Marine Corps Security Force Battalion (MCSFBN) Bangor Marines were recognized by the Navy League of the United States (NLUS) Bremerton/Olympic Peninsula Council recently. Sergeant Eric Dale, of Lakeville, Minnesota, was the Non Commissioned Officer of the Year. According to Sgt. Maj. Steven Burkett, Dale, a recent Distinguished Graduate of the Sergeants Course at Staff Non Commissioned Officer Academy Quantico, Virginia, was the Battalion’s representative to a Washington D.C.- based study group assessing security and vulnerability mitigation at nuclear weapons facilities nationwide. Lance Corporal (now

Corporal) Ryan Clark, of Greenville, Texas, was the Marine of the Year. According to his citation, Clark personified the core values of Honor, Courage, Commitment, and demonstrated exceptional leadership skills while serving as a Team Leader within the Waterfront Restricted Area. During a recent Defense Nuclear Surety Inspection (DNSI), which Burkett called “our version of the Super Bowl,” Clark dedicated his own time to ensuring that the Marines under his charge were highly proficient on the required post knowledge; and his extensive nuclear weapons security knowledge directly contributed to Bravo Company’s overall success of the inspection.

Tatiana Tubberville, Kelsy Cain, and Grace Smith cheer on teammate Leah Avery during the state championship swim meet last weekend in Federal Way. BY BRIAN KELLY BAINBRIDGE ISLAND REVIEW

The top swimmers from Central Kitsap High School competed in the 3A Girls State Swim & Dive Championships last week at the King County Aquatics Center in Federal Way. During Friday’s preliminary races, Tatiana Tubberville competed in the 200-yard freestyle. Tubberville qualified for the state meet with a time of 2:06.10. A freshman, she improved on her time and finished in the preliminaries at 20th place, in 2:06.06. Tubberville also swam in the 500-yard freestyle. She punched her ticket to the state meet with a time of 5:37.13, and claimed the 20th spot in the preliminaries by finishing in 5:39.70. Fellow Cougar Leah Avery, a senior, raced in the

200-yard individual medley. Avery qualified for the state championships with a time of 2:17.46, and her time of 2:19.22 in last Friday’s preliminaries put her in 16th place with a chance to swim again the following day. She finished again at 16th in the consolation race on Saturday, and posted a time of 2:19.49. Avery also raced in the 100-yard backstroke. She advanced to state with a time of 1:03.49, then picked up the pace to finish at 1:02.90 in the preliminaries for 17th place, just missing the cut for the finals. Grace Smith of Central Kitsap raced in the 100-yard butterfly after qualifying for state with a time of 1:02.65. The sophomore finished at 21st in the preliminaries with an improved time of 1:02.24. The Central Kitsap

400-yard freestyle team of Tubberville, Kelsy Cain, Smith and Avery advanced from Friday’s preliminary race in the 400-yard freestyle relay to qualify for the consolation race on Saturday. The foursome finished in 15th place in 3:55.05, an improvement over the relay team’s qualifying time of 3:55.28. The team advanced to Saturday’s final in the 400 free, where they claimed the 16th spot in 3:53.92.

Indies First

Continued from page 2 were playing a soccer game,” As Irwin tells it, Alexie — an award-winning and best-selling author — made up for the missed appearance by coming into the bookstore to work a shift as a bookseller. The author, widely known for his works “The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven,” and “The Absolute True Diary of a Part-Time Indian,” stood in as a staff member, helping customers among the bookshelves. Many were surprised to find the face from a book jacket in front of them in the flesh. “Who wouldn’t want Sherman Alexie as a book seller?” Irwin said. Alexie didn’t stop at the one-day appearance. He put a challenge out to other authors to come into their own independent bookstores. “He challenged other authors to do the same,” Irwin said. “He put out an open letter. A lot of booksellers did it. Seattle was a big location because (Alexie’s) from here.” Indies First now coincides with Small Business Saturday, an annual event that encourages conscientious shopping at local, small businesses. This year it is on Nov. 29, the day after the Black Friday shopping blitz. The challenge attracted

legions of authors to their local, independent bookstores in 2013. This year, author Neil gaiman and musician-author Amanda Palmer have written an open letter asking for the same support, and in Kitsap, authors are returning. Author garth Stein, of the best-seller “The Art of Racing in the Rain,” will start the day at Liberty Bay Books, and then will work the aisles at Eagle Harbor Book Co. that afternoon. “Last year, we introduced him to lefse,” Butler said. Liberty Bay is not only bringing Stein back to their store, but will also have more lefse — a traditional Norwegian flatbread — on hand. “Lefse and lattes with garth,” Butler said. Eagle Harbor will open the event with David guterson, author of the award-winning novel turned film “Snow Falling on Cedars.” The setting of the novel closely mirrors Bainbridge Island’s own history. The stores will have additional attractions. Butler said Liberty Bay has preordered extra books from the featured authors, as well as books the authors recommend. “They will be in here signing their own books and we asked them to pick books that they’d like to sell,” she said. Eagle Harbor Book Co. will have cider and cookies to go with its authors. Butler said last year’s author event, and Small Business Saturday, made a difference for the independent shops. “It was our best selling day, it was very successful,” Butler said. “It

brought so many people downtown and it brought people to other stores too.” Irwin agrees with that sentiment. “It made a difference (last year),” Irwin said. “We got a good start to our holiday season. That day was above what it would have been.” Irwin admits the stores are businesses and therefore want to make a profit, but the money traveling through independent cash registers have a greater impact locally. “A dollar spent here stays more locally than a dollar spent online,” she said, noting that local shopping contributes to local tax dollars and more. “We are a place where we know our customers, we know our community,” Irwin said. “When you shop here, you are giving back to your community. “In the long run, we feel our deals are as good, if

STARS ABOVE KITSAP LOCAL ASTROLOGY

SIGNS

By SUZANNE O’CLAIR

lert, alert! You are guaranteed to overextend this month. The holidays loom and cosmic winds are at our back pushing us to overdo. Yikes! There are patterns among the sun, moon and planets that may have us struggling between idealistic dreams and realistic ambitions — with tendencies to live large. With the Sagittarian new moon on Nov. 22, Venus encourages reaching for the stars but strict Saturn is driving in our blind spot making us skittish. He ends his two years of reality building in Scorpio and moves to

aries: March 21 - April 19 Taurus: April 20 - May 20 Gemini: May 21 - June 20 Cancer: June 21 - July 22 leo: July 23 - Aug. 22 Virgo: Aug. 23 - Sept. 22 libra: Sept. 23 - Oct. 22 Scorpio: Oct. 23 - Nov. 21 Sagittarius: Nov. 22 - Dec. 21 Capricorn: Dec. 22 - Jan. 19 aquarius: Jan. 20 - Feb. 18 Pisces: Feb. 19 - March 20 Sagittarius for the first time in 28 years. Saturn will capture the optimistic, visionary energy of Sagitarrius, the Centaur, and using patience and discipline will forge dreams into reality. What do you want to manifest over the next few years? Pick carefully because you are about to get to work! Also, on Dec. 14, we have the sixth contact

between revolutionary Uranus in overly-active Aries and the power-broker Pluto in ambitious Capricorn. Let me dissect that sentence for you. Most planets have three contacts when they do-sido. They touch hands in greeting, one backs away, then moves forward again, then they shake hands good-bye. This do-si-do has had six contacts — and another will come

LIVE UNITED

in March. With Uranus and Pluto slam-dancing together, radical change is afoot. The times are seriously changing. This month it’s all too easy to go crazy over-eating, over-drinking, over-spending, and over-extending. Perhaps we can use overdoing itself as a trigger to remind us to slow down. The point of the season ahead is to open our hearts and inspire ourselves to live our best lives as Oprah says; She has Sagittarius rising in her chart. So make a plan that saves money, time, energy, (and calories) as though tomorrow will be a rainy day because it will rain - and only you can keep yourself dry.

Horoscopes

Nov. 22 - Dec. 6 Sagitarrius, when you come through the door, the party ramps up. Your generosity of spirit and optimism lights the winter fire. Use the power of your presence wisely. And remember to choose your words well. Blurting things out doesn’t work when you are stage center. With Saturn wrapping up his time in your sign, Scorpio, you may feel a wee bit of an extravagant present to yourself is due

as a graduation present! You worked hard and there may be some last minute detailing about how you present yourself to the world in a way that feels safe to you. Capricorns are focusing on their quiet zone until Solstice. Quiet? Right! Be very strategic in plans about where you will make cameo appearances and stick to the plan. If you do, you’ll be rested and ready for the holiday magic. Leo, you bring radiance and warmth to the party, too. Experiential gifts will please everyone, especially if the occasion explores innovative possibilities. This new moon is in home territory for you. Shine on and light everyone’s fire. Aries, you may feel like flying off to a new locale, if not in body, then in the mind. Remember, though, that the company’s holiday party is part of your work image. Stay conservative. It’s hard, but you may be being groomed for a big move in the new year! For you, Gemini, this new moon brings in the element of “others,” mirrors who reflect us back to ourselves. Sometimes we need privacy to work on our stuff so enjoy the winter evenings at home. The day-to-day routine has a

merry note. Libra has that party thing going on, too, in everyday activities. Still, you need to communicate with care – which is rare for you. Your broader networks could be more fun than the family. Yes, sometimes even home needs your negotiation skills. You love networking in humanitarian groups, Aquarius. Spouses and close friends are up for play. Break up any dull and deadly ruts — maybe share more of your goofy side? Virgo, running around isn’t your thing for the moment. Make merry from the home front, from the fireside with your partner and envision your future. Recreation has a decidedly purposeful tone. Don’t let it kill your sense of play. Party, Taurus? Home could be the perfect place! But, you may find yourself in a quieter, more personal and intimate mode where you like what you are discovering about yourself. Out in the world, projects are moving slowly but surely to a peak. Take your quiet time to fuel focused action. Not all the to-do-lists belong to you, Cancer. Delegate — even if work See aSTrOlOGY, Page 9

aroundkitsap BaiNBridge islaNd revieW Island considers regulations on film-making: Lights! Action! Permit? Future filmmakers on Bainbridge Island may have to get a permit from the city manager before shooting any motion pictures, television shows or Internet offerings if the City Council approves a comprehensive set of new regulations. The Bainbridge City Council was to consider new rules at its meeting Nov. 18 that would require city permission for filming on the island. The city would also collect permit fees and “any extraordinary costs incurred by the city in connection with the permit,” according to the proposed ordinance. Those costs may include staff time of police and public works, litter disposal and other items. Filming on the island had a brush with controversy last summer, after some islanders complained about the farmers market being used — along with other places on the island — to film a commercial for a new Oral-B toothbrush. The proposed ordinance has been in the works for months, according to the city. At the Nov. 18, council members will get an overview of the new regulations. According to the agenda bill for the ordinance, the permit process will give the city manager the authority “to place conditions on filming and production to insure that such filming and production activities do not interfere with the public health and safety.” The rules will not apply to filming that’s done for personal or private use, or to studios that have gotten a business license from the city. Still, it’s unclear from the proposed ordinance how far the ordinance will restrict filmmakers who produce content for the Internet, as the ordinance does not define “personal or private use.” News organizations such as newspapers and television stations will be allowed to film without a permit, and the exemption also applies to nonprofits with 501(c) status from the Internal Revenue Service. The amount of the filming permit fee will be set by a resolution adopted later by the City Council. According to the new rules, filmmakers seeking a

Wolfe announces transition team: Central Kitsap Commissioner-Elect Ed Wolfe announced a transition team to assist him in the weeks ahead as he prepares to begin his Kitsap County Commission term. “My years of experience in government, law and the private sector have prepared me to serve as a county commissioner,” Wolfe said. “Part of that preparation includes surrounding myself with those who can provide the best guidance and advice on how to get to work quickly and eﬃciently”. Wolfe’s transition team includes Patty Lent, Bremerton mayor and former County Commission member from Central Kitsap; Al Townsend, Poulsbo chief of police; Alice Tawresey, Olympic College trustee and former Winslow mayor; Jon Rose, president of Olympic Property Group; Teresa Osinski, executive vice president of the Home Builders Association of Kitsap County; Daryl Daugs, organizational management specialist; Guy Stitt, the Navy League’s ambassador to the Navy; and Steve Sego, land use and public policy adviser. “I’m honored to have been elected by the voters of Kitsap County,” Wolfe said the announcement. “Now it’s time to get to work, and this team of community leaders who each bring valuable and diverse experience, will help me begin with the information I need to serve more effectively”. The transition team will function as an ad hoc task force and will complete its work by year’s end. Because Wolfe’s predecessor, Linda Streissguth, was appointed to fill a vacancy, Wolfe can take oﬃce as soon as the Nov. 4 election results are certified. — BremertonPatriot.com

Port orCHard iNdePeNdeNt Logo ‘doesn’t fit’ Port Orchard: More discussion on selecting a design for wayfinding signs and logo for Port Orchard will happen in the near future. The City Council voted 5-2 to delay discussion on the signs. Council members Bek Ashby and Fred Chang opposed the delay. At the Oct. 28 council meeting, three logo options, which included designs and color schemes, were presented by Ray Ambrosini of Ambrosini Design Ltd., of Portland. Councilwoman Cindy Lucarelli doesn’t think any of the three logo designs “fit Port Orchard” and are “very modern.” “When I look at it, I think ‘international airport,’ ” she said. “I think ‘large new area,’ ‘new shopping area.’ I don’t see ‘historic’ in this and these are going to be ‘wayfinding’ signs to our historic downtown.” Lucarelli told Development Director Nick Bond that she is not opposed to the designs, but “it’s not appropriate for Port Orchard.” “We made a whole list of materials we would like to see in our development,” she said. “I don’t see that reflected in these decisions.” Ashby, a member of the wayfinding sign committee, said the group went through many iterations and pages. “I personally like them,” she said. “To me they say Port Orchard. I don’t see them as modern. I see them as ‘marine’ or more ‘mariner.’ ” Other members of the wayfinding sign committee were Bond, Mayor Tim Matthes, Public Works Director Mark Dorsey, Chris Stansberry, Trish Tierney, Amy Miller and Gary Johnson. Matthes told council members if they want to go another direction with the sign, more money would be needed in the budget. “We’ve spent a lot of the budgeted money to get this far with these three options,” Matthes said. “That’s sad, I think, actually,” Lucarelli remarked. Ambrosini’s work used up about half of the $55,000 contract. He said $40,000 was allotted to arrive at a final design and $15,000 was for preparing plans to where the signs should be placed. — PortOrchardIndependent.com

Great whites from the Great NW Invite I

n early October, we conducted the second annual great Northwest Invitational Wine Competition at the Columbia gorge Hotel in Hood River, Oregon. For the past couple of weeks, we’ve been taking a look at the top red wines, and now we will review some of the white wines that earned gold medals. Of particular interest is the broad range of varieties and styles featured, from the Spanish Albariño to the german Siegerrebe to the French Semillon to a Chardonnay from the cool Columbia gorge. These are exciting wines worth tracking down. Ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. ■ Palencia Winery 2013 Albariño, Ancient Lakes of Columbia Valley, $18: Victor Palencia launched his own label in Walla Walla while keeping his day job as head winemaker for Jones of Washington in Quincy. He’s scoring big with this white Spanish variety. It opens with aromas of lime zest, spice and honeydew melon. On the palate, the variety’s typically bright acidity is apparent on first sip, followed by incredible flavors of melon, Asian pear and white lavender. (13 percent alcohol) ■ San Juan Vineyards 2013 Siegerrebe, Puget Sound, $20: The first Siegerrebe grown in North America was on Bainbridge Island. The german white grape continues to thrive on the Salish Sea island of San Juan. This example reveals aromas and flavors of lychee, ripe golden Delicious apple, starfruit and honeydew melon. This is finished mostly dry and has a rich, luscious finish. (12 percent alcohol) ■ Avennia 2013 Oliane Sauvignon Blanc, Yakima Valley, $25: This Woodinville winery flashes its brilliance with this gorgeous Sauv Blanc. The nose hints at seashells, freshcut lemon and gooseberry. Its barrel fermentation with French oak doesn’t shave much off the bright acid profile of yellow

grapefruit, white peach and apricot pit. Lingering salinity should serve this well with oysters or seared scallops. (12.9 percent alcohol) ■ Chateau Ste. Michelle 2013 Harvest Select Sweet Riesling, Columbia Valley, $10: This broad-production wine is definitely on the sweeter side of the International Riesling Foundation scale at 4.3 percent residual sugar, but the gorgeous acidity balances everything, so it is far from cloying. Rather, the aromas of baked apple and vanilla ice cream give way to flavors that are rich, bright and juicy. (10.5 percent alcohol) ■ Cinder Wines 2013 Dry Viognier, Snake River Valley, $18: Two of Idaho’s premier vineyards — Sawtooth and

NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN

Williamson — set the stage for owner Melanie Krause to the produce some of the Northwest’s best examples of Viognier. Tropical fruit aromas pick up hints of cotton candy, peach blossom and orange Creamcicle. The flavors follow through in a beautiful fashion, and the Snake River Valley’s 2,800 feet of elevation allows for more natural acidity than is found in most areas of the world. Krause enjoys serving this with salads with goat cheese, vichyssoise, crab cakes and risotto. Earlier this year, this same wine earned a gold at Sunset magazine’s international wine competition. (14 percent alcohol) ■ L’Ecole No. 41 2013 Semillon, Columbia Valley, $15: L’Ecole owner Marty Clubb has carried the flag for Semillon for decades, crafting greatness from this noble Bordeaux

variety grown in the arid Columbia Valley. Classic aromas of dried pineapple and fresh fig meld with hints of caramel and ghee. On the palate, it reveals flavors of rich tropical fruit. Tired of Chardonnay? give Semillon a try. (14.5 percent alcohol) ■ Tranche Cellars 2011 Celilo Vineyard Chardonnay, Columbia Gorge, $45: Aussie-born Andrew Trio and the Corliss family take their time with all their wines, including this high-style Chardonnay from one of the Northwest’s most acclaimed sites for white wines. The nose hints at Asian pear, medium toast, fig, honey and hominy. The full mouth feel brings lemon and cream with fig and jicama leading to a finish of quince and kumquat. (13.5 percent alcohol) — Andy Purdue and Eric Degerman own and operate the online site Northwest Wines. Learn more about wine at www. greatnorthwestwine.com.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r â€™s a n d b u y e r â€™s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the sellerâ€™s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord.

PUBLIC NOTICE

Naval Base Kitsap Bangor Invites You to Participate in the 5-Year Review of Cleanup Actions August 2009 through July 2014 The Navy, in cooperation with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Washington State Department of Ecology, is initiating the fourth 5-year review of environmental cleanup actions at Naval Base Kitsap Bangor and invites the public to participate in this process. The purpose of the 5-year review is to ensure that the cleanup actions (remedies) established in the Records of Decision (RODs) under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) continue to be protective of human health and the environment. The 5-year review is also intended to identify possible deficiencies and recommend corrective actions. The 5-year review is required under federal law because the cleanup actions have left some contamination in place. Site Name, Location, and Address: Naval Base Kitsap Bangor Silverdale, Kitsap County, Washington • 120 South Dewey Street, Bremerton, WA 98314 Operable Unit (OU) 1 (Site A), OU 2 (Site F), OU 3 (Sites 16, 24, and 25), OU 6 (Site D), OU 7 (Sites B, E/11, and 10) and OU 8 (Sites 27, 28, and 29) Lead Agency Conducting the Review: United States Navy BACKGROUND An initial statutory 5-year review was finalized in September 2000, the second in September 2005, and the third in October 2010. This is the fourth 5-year review. There are eight OUs at NBK Bangor. The Bangor Ordnance Disposal site (OU 1) was added to the National Priorities List (NPL) in July 1987, and Bangor Naval Submarine Base site (OUs 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8) was added to the NPL in August 1990. Because no further action was recommended for OUs 4 and 5, these OUs are not included in the five year review. The fourth five year review report covers the remedies selected in the RODs for OUs 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, and 8. Pursuant to the RODs for these OUs, contaminants were left in place above levels that allow for unrestricted use and unrestricted exposure. As recommended in the last 5 year review, Sites 2 and 26 at OU 7 were removed from the 5-year review process. Cleanup actions for the OUs and sites that are addressed in this 5 year review are summarized below. OU 1 Site A consists of an ordnance disposal area. Cleanup actions included soil removal and treatment and groundwater treatment. Monitoring of groundwater has been conducted to evaluate effectiveness and adjust performance of the groundwater treatment system. More information on these actions can be obtained from the ROD for OU 1 and three Explanations of Significant Differences (ESDs) for OU 1. OU 2 Site F consists of a wastewater lagoon and overflow ditch used during the demilitarization of ordnance. Cleanup actions included soil removal and treatment, installation of an infiltration barrier to protect groundwater, and groundwater treatment. Monitoring of groundwater has been conducted to evaluate effectiveness of the groundwater treatment system and natural attenuation. Detailed information on these actions can be obtained from the Interim Remedial Action ROD for OU 2, a subsequent ESD, and the Final Remedial Action ROD. OU 3 Sites 16/24 and 25 consists of former solid- and liquid-waste incinerators and a drum storage area, respectively. Institutional controls at these sites restrict land use. Monitoring of groundwater has been conducted, per the ROD, and has resulted in a conclusion that no additional monitoring or remediation is necessary. OU 6 Site D consists of a former ordnance disposal area. Cleanup activities included soil removal and treatment and short-term groundwater monitoring, as detailed in the ROD. All remedial actions at OU 6 are considered complete. OU 7 includes known or suspected waste sites located across Naval Base Kitsap Bangor. Cleanup activities at OU 7 Site B included construction of a soil cover and shoreline protection system, control of rainwater infiltration, and monitoring of marine sediments and clam tissue. Site E/11 has been addressed through removal and disposal of soils, groundwater use restrictions, and groundwater monitoring. Site 10 cleanup activities included maintenance of asphalt pavement, groundwater use restrictions, and periodic monitoring of groundwater. Details of cleanup and monitoring activities can be obtained in the ROD for OU 7. OU 8 cleanup actions at Sites 27, 28 and 29 include groundwater monitoring and use of a free-product recovery system The ROD for OU 8 details cleanup activities and goals. Institutional controls have also been implemented at all of these sites, with the general purpose of limiting exposure and/or limiting groundwater use. Site-specific information and links to documents such as the previous 5-year reviews and RODs are available on the EPA website at the following addresses: • http://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/csitinfo.cfm?id=1001121 • http://cumulis.epa.gov/supercpad/cursites/csitinfo.cfm?id=1001206 • http://cumulis.epa.gov/fiveyear/index.cfm?fuseaction=fyrsearch.showSitePage&id=1001121 • http://cumulis.epa.gov/superrods/index.cfm?fuseaction=data.RODSList YOU ARE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS PROCESS The Navy welcomes your participation in the 5-year review process. You may participate by submitting your comments or concerns about these environmental cleanup actions at Naval Base Kitsap Bangor by mail or email. Point-of-contact information is provided below. The draft fourth 5-year review document will be available for review at the Kitsap Regional Library at 1301 Sylvan Way, Bremerton, WA in April 2015 and the Naval Facilities Engineering Command Northwest website at http://go.usa.gov/kQ6e. The anticipated date of completion for the fourth 5-year review is October 2015.
