Bainbridge teachers hold one-day walkout Strike intended to light fire under state lawmakers BY SERAINE PAGE
Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge Island teachers taught the Legislature a lesson this week: Ignoring the needs of the education system is not the way to get an A for effort. On Thursday, island teachers abandoned their classrooms and lesson plans for a one-day strike to protest the state’s chronic underfunding of schools. Island teachers joined a massive statewide effort to bring the underfunding into the spotlight through walking off the job. Educators in other school districts have already held walkouts or have strikes planned in the coming weeks. As far as funding basic education goes, Bainbridge teachers think the Legislature gets a big, fat F. “In teaching, we always struggle with having to do so many things and it has gotten progressively worse,” said Keri Schmit, a Woodward eighth-grade teacher. “Every year the Legislature puts new mandates on us, and they’re unfunded mandates.” Schmit said it pained her to see school canceled due

to the protest, but felt — like many of her colleagues — that it was the only way teachers’ voices would be
heard. Over the past 24 years of her career, she’s watched fellow teachers leave the field
and confers with current teachers who are looking at other professions — a prospect that bothers her.
Many have become “disappointed, frustrated and overwhelmed,” she said, by the fact that basic education
is grossly underfunded by nearly $3,000 per student annually. For her, the simple fact that lawmakers are disconnected from the everyday realities of the classroom has been proven time and time again by the state’s inability to fund education properly. They aren’t listening, she said, as phone calls, pleas and letters from teachers have been ignored when they demanded the state Constitution’s mandate for adequate funding of public education be followed. “I feel like I had a lot more freedom to do what things I thought was best for students. Now, I have politicians telling me — who are not even educators — what is the best for my students,” Schmit said. The walkout was approved by union members earlier this week, and by no small measure — 99 percent of teachers were for the strike. All public schools on the island were closed because of the walkout, and some after-school activities were canceled as well. Originally, the strike was planned for May 1, but a large school carnival fund-raiser may have been impacted by that date, said David Layton, TURN TO STRIKE | A14
Dialing up community: Senior Center now taking Collect Calls BY SERAINE PAGE

Sue Barrington, Waterfront Park Community Center program manager, tests out the new Collect Call Phone Booth at the senior center.
Everyone has a story to tell. Now, there’s one special place on Bainbridge Island to share those tales. Starting May 1, anyone can stop by the Bainbridge Island Senior Community Center to record a personal story in a handcrafted Collect Call Phone Booth. The StoryShare project is a way to gather and share memories of those who reside on Bainbridge Island. “It collects the calls that you place inside of it,” said Sue Barrington, Waterfront Park Community Center program manager. “We will have a repository for all sorts of Bainbridge Island stories — whether those took place 50 years ago or last week.”
Standing over 7-feet tall and made of red oak, the old-school phone booth sits in the center’s lobby waiting for someone to open its door and record a memory on a circa 1900s vintage phone. Inside the mouthpiece is a voice-activated recording device that will capture any spoken words. “I hope that people will feel like when they’re in this booth, they feel really safe and speak their truth,” said Barrington, who spearheaded the project. “I expect it to be pretty moving stuff along the way.” Phone booth visitors can choose to remain anonymous. The five-year project is a way to record history as experienced by the islanders, along with personal stories,
Barrington said. Tapes will reviewed weekly, and the most interesting ones will be archived at the Bainbridge Island Historical Museum and possibly included in a Bainbridge Community Broadcast. Those who stop in are asked to record their name and phone number for follow-up purposes. “I think the nature of an island, being that it is so self-contained in a lot of ways, can really create a unique sense of community,” Barrington said. “There’s a real pride on Bainbridge Island about its history and being from here.” Each week, those who step into TURN TO CALLS | A19

A talented tribe of regional nature lovers converged on Bainbridge Island recently to spend a sunny Saturday morning in the woods getting high. About 100 feet high, actually. The fourth annual Bainbridge Island Open Masters Tree Climbing Competition saw both recreational and expert climbers as well as professional arborists and excited onlookers gather at a private residence on Agate Point Road NE Saturday, April 25 to catch up, converse and, of course, climb. “The climbers who show up to this event are mostly working arborists from Portland, Seattle, Kitsap and [British Columbia],” said Katy Bigelow, the event’s organizer. “They all love trees enough that many of them spend extra time away from their day job climbing and competing in trees as hobbies. “All the climbers climb this event spur-less and often use up-to-date and specialized climbing equipment,” she added. Indeed, conservation is a major focus point of the event and, in addition to the ban on spurs and spikes,

Around the Island The return of a classic

Shawn Hamilton, of Berry Sign Systems of Everett, puts the “&” in Town & Country on the market’s iconic signboard under blue skies Wednesday afternoon. The signboard was replaced as part of the market’s ongoing renovation, with the lettering and reader board the final phase of the installation. Hamilton, who’s been installing commercial signage for more than two decades, said the display will look even better once neon lighting has been installed within the letters over the next few days. He complimented the market for making the extra investment in a glowing tube array. “Nobody spends the money on neon anymore,” he said. “They all go LED. But you can’t get the same look as neon — it’s a classic look.”

of the job’s appeal. “Every other animal or anything else develops a fight or flight response, [but] trees, whatever happens to them, they have to deal with it.” Most arborists, Collier explained, work with the tree’s health as their primary focus. “For most of us, we kind of focus more on preservation work,” he said. Dead wood removal, branch weight reduction and general health evaluations are all part of a typical day at work for an arborist, Collier added. “Whatever the tree needs,” he said. “We are kind of self-described tree doctors.” To bring the competition to a more public location is the goal for the future, Bigelow said, which would allow the public to attend. “This is the fourth year I’ve held this event,” she said. “Every year it’s been at private homes and the amount of spectators and climbers has had to be limited.” Bigelow said she has reached out to the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District to inquire about the possibility of hosting a larger version of the event next year in a public location.

In Our Opinion
Be wise, be ready
T
he devastating 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Nepal earlier this week that left more than 5,000 people dead is a startling reminder that we live in a volatile and unpredictable world. Washingtonians know full well that our region is also prone to natural disasters, from destructive floods and earthquakes to deadly landslides and unimaginable-until-they-happen volcanic eruptions. While the scope of some potential tragedies may make it appear that preparedness might be futile, residents should remember that being ready for the day when disaster strikes will pay off even if the worst of our nightmares are never realized. Local officials say that even an earthquake with a magnitude of six could severely damage as many as 1,500 homes or more on the island. Structural damage to homes will only be one of the initial problems facing islanders. We should expect, in the worst of events, disruptions to ferry service and perhaps the loss of the ability to cross the Agate Pass Bridge. Local responders will likely be overwhelmed by the number of emergency calls, and self-reliance in the early days of any disaster will be key. While most authorities acknowledge that people need to maintain three days’ worth of food and water, islanders should be ready to stand on their own for even longer. Local authorities recommend being ready to withstand at least five days of emergency conditions. Also, think about necessities beyond food, water and candles; extra supplies of pet food, blankets and flashlights with fresh batteries and a radio, should be in every resident’s preparedness kit. Islanders have access to expert advice in getting ready. The Bainbridge Island Fire Department, at both the Madison Avenue and Phelps Road stations, have materials for the public on disaster preparedness, including information on the “Map Your Neighborhood” program which has proven very successful nation-wide. To learn more about the island’s disaster response protocols or to speak with a firefighter about setting up a disaster response plan for your family or neighborhood, call 206-842-7686, visit the “Emergency Preparedness” section of www.bifd.org or email contact@bifd.org.

Letters In response
More thoughts on religious freedom To the editor: The recent letter regarding religious freedom caused a backlash. As many Catholic bishops have expressed concern about threat to religious liberty, I want to answer those who say our nation is secular. Secular can mean religious neutral, but it can also mean exclusion of religion in the public square. This second definition seems to be the current interpretation leading to a “state religion” of no religion. That “state religion” was in full force with “politically correct” economic sanctions against the state of Indiana because adhering to one’s faith in business transactions is unacceptable. The letter writer stated that “businesses have a right to refuse services if doing so violates their deeply held religious beliefs.” Now the wording is vague and prone to bigotry clothed in Scripture, but there is also bigotry masked in tolerance. Take, for example, the florist who said she could not do the flower arranging for a same-sex wedding because she could not be part of something that was contrary to her religion. Now, if a gay man or woman asked to buy a bunch of flowers and was denied because they thought it was for a same-sex wedding, that would be bigotry based on an assumption. That would be discrimination against the person and not the action. The official Catholic opposition to same-sex marriage makes me uncomfortable because I cannot deny anyone something I would want
denied to me. If I were the florist, I would have accepted the request. However, these are based on feelings and not objective truths. If there is an objective truth involved, I cannot force anyone to violate it no matter what I feel. FRANCIS JACOBSON Bainbridge Island
Let’s Pull Together and stop Scotch broom To the editor: Spring is here and broom is blooming! You may welcome the bright yellow blossoms of Scotch broom, but soon they will be replaced by seed pods. A mature plant can produce over 30,000 seeds in a year, and they remain viable up to 70 years! Of all the plants listed in Washington as noxious weeds, Scotch broom is the most rambunctious! Thanks to the efforts of several groups (Weed Warriors, Sustainable Bainbridge, Noxious Weed Advisors, the Bainbridge Island Land Trust, the Student Conservation Corps, and the Bainbridge Island Metro Park & Recreation District), in many areas we are seeing fewer blooms this year. A coalition of sponsors and generous donors support the Let’s Pull Together campaign: adults and school-aged kids are out to set an example for all to follow in our fields and roadways. With persistent effort, Scotch broom can be eliminated in broad areas, and where it persists we can control its spread. Now through June is the best time, while the soil is moist and seeds have not formed, for pulling small plants and cutting the larger ones below their lowest branch. Let’s Pull Together focuses on publicly owned land, and we call on landowners to control the Scotch broom on their own property. If you need assistance or advice
please contact our coordinator for Let’s Pull Together, Clarice Cutler at 802-922-0643 or email her at stopscotchbroom@gmail.com. LEN BEIL Weed Warrior and Kitsap County Noxious Weed Advisor
Message to lawmakers: We say enough is enough To the editor: I am a very lucky person. I get to live and work in an incredible community. I get to teach amazing kids: my friends’ kids, my neighbors’ kids, kids who I have had the benefit of watching grow up into fantastic young adults. I have the best job in the world. I am a Bainbridge Island teacher. Over the next few weeks and months our Bainbridge Island community is going to hear about the frustrations that are shared by the teachers in the state of Washington. Community, you are going to hear about possible rolling walkouts, rallies in Olympia, letter-writing campaigns. You will hear of these things from the news, on Facebook, and from your friends and neighbors who are teachers. Please know, Bainbridge Island community, we teachers are not mad to you. We are not frustrated with our district, our students, or your continued support. We are angry at some of our legislators in Olympia. We are frustrated that some of our legislators refuse to follow the will of the people in reinstating the teacher COLA, and limiting class size for elementary grades. We are frustrated with the legislators for refusing to fully fund education, as is mandated by the Washington Supreme Court. Bainbridge Island community, your support has been wonderful. Legislators, enough is enough. TODD ERLER Bainbridge Island

Spartans score season’s seventh soccer shutout BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
One goal can make a dramatic difference in a soccer game, especially when it’s the only one scored. The Bainbridge High varsity boys soccer team scored a 1-0 shutout win over the visitors from Ingraham High Friday, April 24, with a single decisive goal scored late in the second half by rising frosh Spartan star Mario Vukic. The win was the Spartans’ seventh shutout of the season and secured for them the second-place spot in the Metro’s Sound Division. The BHS squad has an overall season record of 8-1-3 (7-1-3 in league play). The top team, Garfield, has a league record of 8-2-1. Despite the game’s sparse presence on the scoreboard for the majority of the contest, it is actually the team’s endgame that needs the most work, several Spartan players agreed Friday. “I knew we had what it took to score the goal, it’s just [that] we have problems with finishing,” Vukic said. “We get all these opportunities and we can’t just put it in the back of the net, but I knew we were capable.” Vukic added that though the team had been getting nervous at the half, staring down what could easily have ended up as yet another tie, he never doubted their skills. “If I’m on a breakaway, then I’m confident that I can score, and [it’s] the same with our other forwards,” he said. “We just had to get that one in and we’d have momentum.” Cal Barash-David, who leads the
BHS team in assists this season, said that Ingraham was a deceptively tough opponent. “I think they’re real hard workers. They work really hard midfield and they’re a way better team than their record shows,” he said. Spartan Head Coach Ian McCallum praised the team for their determination throughout the back-and-forth match. “I think that, what we’ve said before, every game’s going to be a tough game here,” he said. “I mean, Rainier Beach beats Blanchet [Thursday] night 2-1? Unless you’re completely focused, you’re going to give up goals or you’re going to miss opportunities. “I think in the first half we were trying to be too complicated,” he added. “In the second half, again, we tried to simplify a little more.” Perhaps the biggest advantage the Spartans found late in the game, McCallum said, was not something they started doing right but instead something Ingraham started doing wrong. “They changed their game plan a little bit, which gave us a little more space behind our defense,” he explained. “Which, I don’t know why they did — but I’m thankful.” He was also grateful, he said, for the sole goal the Spartans were able to sneak through. McCallum said that Vukic, who had been making his presence known to coaches and fans throughout the season with continual quality performances, was a young player to keep an eye on. “[He] started on JV and he’s come in and he’s exciting to watch when he’s on the ball,” McCallum

The guys love playing with him.” Off the field, McCallum said, Vukic is well-liked as well. “He’s a freshman, so he’s a little quieter, but he gets on well with everyone,” he said, adding that the freshman’s two older sisters had also been great Bainbridge soccer figures. “They’ve just got a family history of good soccer,” he laughed. With only four games left on the regular schedule, McCallum said, the Spartans are playing with an eye to the postseason. “I’ve strained my vocal chords,” the coach chuckled — though, he admitted, that whether the injury had been sustained while yelling from the sidelines at the Spartans or yelling at home “at my own kids,” he was unsure. Maybe it’s a bit of both. “I don’t want to look too far forward,” McCallum added. However, he added, the Spartans’ final home match of the
regular season (Monday, May 4 against Garfield) is a key game as higher placement in the league bracket going into the postseason could make all the difference. “Whoever ends [the] regular season in the first position is going to be in a better position,” Luciano Marano | Bainbridge Island Review he explained.

BHS scores 15-8 Senior Day baseball win over Roosevelt BY LUCIANO MARANO Bainbridge Island Review
Luciano Marano | Bainbridge Island Review
The BHS varsity baseball team scored a 15-8 win over the visitors from Roosevelt at their finale home game of the regular season Wednesday.
This year’s final home varsity baseball game got started with a bang. Two of them, actually. Right off the bat, the Spartans claimed the lead with two consecutive home runs during their first at bat and announced — in no uncertain terms -—whose field it was. They would continue to
lead throughout the Senior Day game Wednesday, ultimately scoring a 15-8 victory over the visitors from Roosevelt High. The win left the Spartans in the top-ranked spot in the Metro’s Mountain Division with an overall regular season record of 17-2 (7-1 in league play). Garfield is the number-two team with a league record of 5-1. The BHS squad will
face off against the winner of Wednesday’s Bishop Blanchet/Nathan Hale game next Saturday in the first game of the postseason. Spartan Head Coach Simon Pollack said after the three-hour long game that, while it was no time to start resting on their laurels, the team should take a moment to be proud of their accomplishments this season, especially the seniors. “Frankly, it’s the mark of
a good team that they kept the bats rolling, which was key,” Pollack said. “Certainly Roosevelt made their errors — and we made our errors — but that’s the thing about a good team. You know you’re a good team when you can play through the errors that you make.” Pollack said that the excitement surrounding the final home game and of TURN TO BASEBALL | A13

Spartans corral the Rough Riders SEATTLE - The Bainbridge Spartans certainly gave the Roosevelt Rough Riders a bumpy ride. Actually, it was worse than rough. Bainbridge blasted Roosevelt 13-1 in girls varsity softball Tuesday that was called after three innings because of the mercy rule. The Metro League contest was a makeup for a game that was first planned for April 14, but postponed due to weather and field conditions.
The Spartans wasted little time in this week’s restart at Woodland Park. Bainbridge scored one run in the first, then three in the second, to jump ahead 4-0. Then, in the third, it was good night, Irene. Bainbridge scored 13 runs to send the Rough Riders back to the barn. Riley Gregoire was per-

Spartans deliver Puyallup putdown BHS sailing team BAINBRIDGE - Ellen takes fleet crown Carpenter and Sonia Olson saddled Puyallup with four goals apiece as the Spartans galloped to a 20-3 win in girls varsity lacrosse last week at Bainbridge’s Memorial Stadium. If the outcome was ever in question, any doubts were erased early on as the Spartans pummeled Puyallup from the start, with a half-dozen goals in quick succession. Bainbridge led 5-0 with a goal by Olson with 20:12 left to play in the first half. Paige Brigham followed with another goal — one of three in the game for her — moments later. The Spartans continued to suffocate Puyallup and led 10-0 with nearly 14 minutes left before intermission. Nine Bainbridge players in all scored in the game. Amy Willerford had the Spartans’ second hat trick of the night, and also poured in three goals. Robin Hilderman con-

The Varsity A and Varsity B boats both won their first race and maintained their first place ranking overall through 11 races on Saturday and Sunday. The Varsity A sailors were Stasi Burzycki, Will Brown and Nick Dresel and the Varsity B sailors were Jackson McCoy, Hannah Harrison and Josh Rentz. The team finished with a score of 67.

had to wait for more than three hours for their second race in the series, while squalls blew in from the west until the wind direction settled and the race course could be set. Sunday, winds were steady from the east, causing considerable chop. TURN TO ROUNDUP | A9

BI rowers win medals in 27 races EUGENE, Oregon Bainbridge Island rowers captured dozens of gold and silver medals in the Covered Bridge Regatta, their first official regatta of the spring season, last weekend in Eugene, Oregon. More than 100 junior (high school) and almost 20 masters (adult) rowers raced in 37 heats at the regatta over the two-day period. According to Head Coach Tim Goss, the Bainbridge team came in second for the overall team trophy, with first place going to Serra High School from San Mateo, California. The outstanding showing was especially welcome as the Bainbridge rowers get ready for the 45th annual Brentwood Regatta, which runs from Friday, April 24 through Sunday, April 26 on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. “With the weather alternating head wind and tail wind conditions and the sun blazing we had a lot of great racing,” Goss said of the Covered Bridge Regatta. “Our rowers represented Bainbridge well. We love this venue as it provides a superb benchmark for the remaining four weeks of the season,” he added. “We are well prepared for our biggest event of the season this weekend, hosted by Brentwood College on Vancouver Island.” The Covered Bridge Regatta featured 516 entries and 26 rowing clubs from Washington, Oregon and California. The weekend also was a family affair for Bainbridge rowers, with three generations of one family; two mothers and their sons; and 10 siblings, rowing on the Masters and Juniors teams. VARSITY BOYS Varsity boys showed solid racing throughout, earning six medals out of nine races for Bainbridge. In a late Saturday heat, the Varsity Boys Four smoked the competition, leaving Seattle Rowing Center in their wake and earning gold with a fast 7:33.9 finish (M. Aber, K. Vander Leest, J. Danielsson, J. Najarian,

BELLEVUE - The Bainbridge High varsity coed tennis team scored an epic win in Bellevue last Friday and claimed a 10-1 win over Eastside Catholic. Bainbridge won every match except Girls Singles No. 1, where Ellie Van Slyke was bested 6-1, 6-2 by Rachel DeCaires. The Spartans were awarded Girls Doubles No. 1 by default. In Girls Doubles No. 2, Raya Duessen and Hayden Tutty claimed an 8-1 win. Jeremy Lipshutz and Alec Chan were forced to go the distance (7-6, 6-6, 7-2) to win the Boys Doubles No. 1 match.
Aiden Sullivan and Maxwell Brown had a much easier go (6-0, 6-0) in Boys Doubles No. 2. Luke Hurd and Elizabeth Viele brought home the Mixed Doubles match for BHS 6-6, 11-9, 6-4. In Girls Singles No. 2, Tara Nikomborirak claimed a 6-2, 6-3 win. The third Girls Singles match saw Quinn Dassel similarly represent the Spartan squad: 6-1, 7-5. Bainbridge also claimed all three Boys Singles events as well. Ben Devries (6-0, 6-0), Holt Ogden (6-0, 6-1) and Eli Wagner (6-0, 6-0) each served and swung their way to a win for BHS.

Spartans win in ninth inning BAINBRIDGE - The Spartans outlasted the Beavers and BHS beat Ballard 4-3 Monday in a two-inning wrap-up to their weather-suspended varsity softball matchup earlier this month. The Bainbridge-Ballard game on April 13 was stopped in the eighth inning with the score tied 3-all thanks to the rain, and in the finisher on April 27, the Spartans plated a single run in the ninth inning to break the deadlock. For the Beavers, the end-
ing proved to be as aggravating as the April weather. The Spartans finally finished off the Beavers as Natalie Allen was sent to first on a bases-loaded walk in the ninth inning to drive in the winning run. Deahna King pitched for Bainbridge and finished with nine strikeouts and her fifth win on the mound. In the game’s first installment, Natalya Niehaus had a double for Bainbridge and an RBI.

Bainbridge drubs Seattle Prep 10-1 BAINBRIDGE - Four scores and 10 runs ago, our Spartans brought forth on this fastpitch field, a new victory, conceived at home plate, and dedicated to the proposition that not all softball teams are created equal. With apologies to Honest Abe, the Bainbridge varsity softball team piled up the runs across the first four innings in its battle against Seattle Prep but then became Stonewall Jackson to the Panthers by allowing just one run as Prep perished at the big bats of Bainbridge, 10-1. The Spartans drew first blood by scoring a run in the first inning during last week’s matchup. Then in the second, Bainbridge shelled Seattle Prep with another five runs to forge a 6-0 advantage. The Panthers mustered a solo run in the third to trim the tide to 6-1, but the Spartans answered with two runs in both the third and fourth innings to seal the scoring at 10-1. Sara Colley went the distance to pick up her

second win on the mound for BHS. She allowed seven hits but just one run across seven innings, and left three Panthers fanning at the plate. Riley Gregoire came up big for Bainbridge; she went 2-for-3 at the plate with a home run and three RBIs. Fellow Spartans Megan Spray went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBIs, Lauren Vchulek was 2-for-3 with a double and two RBIs and Emma Lindsay was 3-for-4.
BHS tennis team served a 7-4 loss BAINBRIDGE - The Bainbridge High varsity coed tennis team suffered a 7-4 loss to the visitors from Lakeside Friday, April 24. Elizabeth Viele went the distance and came out a winner in Girls Singles No. 2 (6-2, 1-6, 10-2). BHS won two of the three Boys Singles matches. Eli Wagner secured a Spartan win in the No. 2 match (7-6, 2-6, 10-2), as did Holt Ogden in the No. 3 match (6-2, 6-3).

playing in front of such a large crowd may have gotten to the Spartans momentarily, at times, and caused some jitter-induced mistakes. Water under the bridge, he added. “Ultimately, last game of the season, we make some errors and come out on top? I couldn’t be happier or more proud of these guys,” Pollack said. With the lengthy break between games, the team intended to drill heavily and stay focused, he added, saying that though they did not yet know who their first postseason opponent would be that it really didn’t matter. “We didn’t lose in April; we’ve won our last 15 games or something like that, and you don’t win all those games without being a little lucky sometimes,” he said. “But we will run into some tight defensive ball clubs.” “We can certainly play with anybody, but the top echelon of the Metro League is elite.” That being said, Pollack admitted, it would be a mistake for the other teams to not be feeling nervous about playing Bainbridge as well. “I would say we’re in the same boat,” he laughed. “You got to be looking at us and the number of runs we scored and the way that we lace it up and the guys that we bring to pitch and you’ve got to certainly put us in the mix for the Metro champs.”

dents gathered in the parking lot of Woodward. “I appreciate how hard it is for teachers to go on strike,” Owens told the crowd. “She [Rolfes] is constantly battling all the time to get education fully funded.” Owens told teachers the agenda for the Legislature’s Special Session — which star ted Wednesday — includes several bills the House and Senate are working on together to try to meet the demands of the McCleary v. State of Washington decision. The ruling by the Washington Supreme Court unanimously found that the state of Washington was failing in its “paramount duty” to properly fund basic education for K-12 students. Some of those current bills — if passed — won’t go into effect until 2017, including proposals to raise teacher salaries without the assistance of local levies. “It’s a long, slow process,

Bainbridge Island School District employees and parents gather at Woodward Middle School prior to heading to Olympia during Thursday’s protest. Educators want to see education fully funded, which has not happened. let me tell you,” said Owens, of the plans that could cost upward of $1 billion a year. Will Brown, a Bainbridge High senior, showed up bright and early at Woodward to show his support for teachers even though he had the
day off. “I think it’s important for the students to stand with the teachers today,” he said. Brown said since the start of his high school career, he’s noticed huge cuts to programs that aren’t STEM-
related, which is a disappointment to him and others. When it comes down to it, he said, it isn’t the fault of teachers that student interests and needs are being ignored. Like his teachers, Brown blames the Legislature. “It’s the Legislature neglecting the students, not the teachers,” he said. “I hope they see we’re watching them, and we know that our constitutional rights have been violated and we’re holding them accountable.” The cancellation of school due to the strike is being treated by district officials as an “unplanned snow day.” District officials will schedule a make-up day to comply with state laws on the number of days students must be in school. If the board approves a make-up day at the end of the school year, the last day of school will be Wednesday, June 17.

the president of the Bainbridge Island Education Association, the union that represents public teachers on the island. Teachers decided to protest a day earlier instead. During the busy morning commuting hours Thursday, dozens of teachers and parents waved signs near the Bainbridge ferry terminal to remind islanders about the state’s impasse at funding education. BHS football coach Andy Grimm said that the demonstrators standing at the intersection of Highway 305 and Winslow Way got many horn honks and hand waves of support from passing commuters in cars, bikes and on foot. Though some gathered were family and supporters,
“about 90 percent” of the sign holders were faculty members from around the district, he added. The group had assembled in the morning to reach the most commuters possible, Grimm said as he waved to some newly arrived Avalara employees — BHS alumni, he said — coming up the hill from the latest ferry sailing from Seattle. Slogans splashed on signs included “Our Kids, Our Future,” “It’s time for smaller class sizes,” “Honk 4 Schools” and “Fully fund education.” Some of those same educators then made their way to Woodward Elementary to get pumped up for a caravan trip to Olympia where they planned to meet with local state representatives, including Sen. Christine Rolfes. Rolfes’ legislative assistant, Linda Owens, offered an update to nearly a hundred teachers, parents and stu-

Friday, May 1, 2015 - Bainbridge Island Review
onsters, robots and Jerry Lee Lewis tunes abound in the Bainbridge High School theater’s production of “Return to the Forbidden Planet,” a campy retro sci-fi musical based ever-so-loosely on William Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” and the classic 1956 film, “Forbidden Planet.” Originally, BHS drama teacher and theater director Barbara Hume said the students were slated to perform “Footloose,” but instead decided they’d rather find a story that was a little more out there. Hence, Shakespeare in space. Rediscover a time when life and music were a little simpler in this timeless take on the classic story: boy meets girl, boy and girl meet mad scientist and then everyone gets attacked by a vicious monster. The annual spring musical ends the dramatic calendar at BHS, Hume explained, which features three large events, including the ever-popular Winter One Acts as well as the fall play. When the students approached her about staging “Return to the Forbidden Planet,” Hume remembered, she was intrigued. “My theater officers brought it to me,” she said. “They had me rethink ‘Footloose’ because, [while] this show is dated in a good way, ‘Footloose’ is dated in a bad way.” Upon closer inspection, Hume said, the students and she agreed that many parts — especially the female parts — had not aged well.
What: The Bainbridge High School theater spring musical “Return to the Forbidden Planet.” When: 7:30 p.m. Friday, May 1 and 8 as well as Saturday, May 2 and 9 (Doors open at 6:30 p.m.). Where: The BHS Large Group Instruction Theater. Admission: $8 for students and $12 for adults. Tickets for sale at the door. No presales available.
The cast of the Bainbridge High School theater’s production of “Return to the Forbidden Planet” work through a practice session.
“They actually called it misogynistic,” Hume said of the students, referring specifically to songs like “Holding Out For a Hero” and “Let’s Hear it for the Boy.” “I agreed after I took a closer look,” she said. “The female roles were not all that inspiring. They were a little too submissive for our tastes.” Then, reviewing the students’ suggested alternative with the show’s choreographer Alyza DelPan-Monley, Hume said they were both instantly on board. “We both really got a hoot,” she laughed. “This is the English version of ‘Rocky Horror Picture Show.’ This was the brainchild of a producer in London who loves American pop culture and early rock ‘n’ roll.” And rock it does, as well as roll, boasting a Jukebox-style soundtrack including hits like “Wipe Out,” “Good Vibrations,” “A
Teenager in Love,” “Great Balls of Fire,” “Monster Mash” and more. Along with the richly vintage music, the show includes enough sly Shakespeare references to please even the most bodacious Bard booster. “He writes struggles that we all relate to even today; universal themes,” Hume said, explaining the ease with which Shakespeare’s works can be made to fit any medium and genre. “Nothing is authentic in this show,” she laughed. “It’s very ‘comic book’ in its look. I think of it as an ongoing comic strip because there’s very few black outs and it just rolls from one song into the next. It is just this sort of constant roll of this cartoon that unravels in front of you.” Tasked with staging the movement in this moving comic strip, DelPan-Monley, a Seattle dancer/ choreographer with a taste for contemporary dance and vibrant

moving in zero gravity or thinking about aliens and tentacles or thinking about a robot and the way a robot moves,” she said. Though nothing about this production ultimately turned out the way she first envisioned earlier this year, Hume agreed that — though the differences were surprises — they had all been good surprises. “This was a real stretch. It takes us someplace we’ve not gone before in the theater program.”

Bainbridge Community Broadcasting is celebrating its first anniversary and new studio location with public tours and a party from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 2.

The party will include studio tours, tasty treats from Jake’s Pickup, a chance to experience the thrill of a podcast interview and numerous elegant door prizes hand-crafted by local artisans. “It’s our way of saying thank you to the community, and it’s an open invitation to new volunteers,” said manager Barry Peters. “This community has been incredibly supportive of our BCB start-up since last May.”
In its first 12 months, more than 70 different Bainbridge organizations have been featured in BCB podcasts. “Bainbridge Community Broadcasting is everything you could want in a radio station,” said Wes Schulz, conductor of the Bainbridge Symphony Orchestra. “A group of dedicated and talented individuals bringing you the best news and information about Bainbridge Island. The work BCB is doing is not only fantastic, but it’s great fun for listeners and on-air personalities alike.” Peters said that the anniversary event was the perfect opportunity for volunteers to connect more with the community. “Our anniversary celebration offers us an opportunity to give back,” said Peters.
“Plus, we’re really looking forward to showing off our wonderful new studios in the Hildebrand Village. This has been a very exciting venture for our all-volunteer team of adults and high school students and we’re looking forward to another year of extraordinary growth.” Bainbridge Community Broadcasting is an all-volunteer community service project of Sustainable Bainbridge, a nonprofit organization. The studio is located at 325 Tormey Lane Suite 144, in Hildebrand Village next to Silver Screen Video. Visit www.bestofbcb.org to learn more.

Winslow bakery closes for ‘reorganization,’ organizers of fundraiser promise to return donations BY SERAINE PAGE
Bainbridge Island Review
Bainbridge Bakers is closed for now. Late Sunday, a Facebook status posted on the Bainbridge Baking Co. Inc. (Bainbridge Bakers) page read, “Bainbridge Bakers continues to be closed for reorganization. Thank you for your support.” The temporary closure comes after weeks of
turmoil for the bakery’s owner, Mike Loudon, and the bakery’s staff. In midApril, a bakery manager set up a GoFundMe account, claiming that $100,000 was needed to cover payroll and keep the bakery going. During that time, a second Bainbridge Bakery location closed as staff scrambled to find ways to save money. Questions have swirled around the operations of the

iconic downtown business. Staff claimed the business was suffering from a theft of funds, but did not provide specifics, and the online appeal came amid allegations that Loudon had not been paying employees for their work at the Winslow business. Loudon has now announced that more than $8,000 in donations collected through the website would
be returned. Loudon acknowledged concerns about the fund-raiser on his bakery’s Facebook page on April 22. “Public feedback from the last week and counsel with private advisors has caused us to alter our strategy for securing the funds to meet the bakery’s obligations,” Loudon wrote. “There has been great concern about the well-inten-
tioned GoFundMe account, and ultimately, in the interest of creating a strong and transparent solution, I am to returning those funds to the donors now, which will be received within two to five days.” Loudon continued: “They [the donated funds] are not enough to cover what the bakery owes and I believe, as I communicated to our staff this morning, that they
deserve a comprehensive solution. I am working around the clock to raise the money and have a few viable approaches that I am pursuing with all the haste possible.” He encouraged those who wish to support the bakery to contact him via email as “a more structured loan option” was being put together to provide a “clear remedy” to the current situation.

the phone booth will have a topic to base their story on. The topic for May 1 through next week will be “first kiss” memories.

inside to record their memory. The project was nine months in the making and required the assistance of multiple agencies, Barrington said. The senior center, Bainbridge Community Broadcast, the Bainbridge Island Historical Museum, Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network and the Bainbridge Island Metropolitan Park and Recreation District all had a hand in the project. “I like that the project is involving the community in a new way and that the seniors have a vital role in the end product. Also, that the project is giving value to peo-
ple’s memories and stories, giving a sense that what each person has seen and done has relevance to the community,” said John DeMeyer, newly retired recreation services director for the Bainbridge park district. “I think people understand that each community is unique. The experiences that collectively shape the community memory are time-sensitive,” he said. “Some will be lost forever unless recorded or captured by this process.” DeMeyer added that he hopes it will “develop a stronger sense of community.”

Community is part of the reason BARN took on the project. The nonprofit asked for proposals for a community service project its woodworkers could take part in. When the phone booth idea came up, Dave Whitacre and other woodworkers jumped at the chance. “I gotta say I’ve never made a phone booth before. This is a new one,” said Whitacre, a BARN member and community project coordinator. “I’ve never heard of a story booth concept before.” Over a period of five weeks, members pieced together the
phone booth using an image that Barrington had given them for inspiration. Pieced together almost entirely by screws, it took four hours for BARN members to set up the booth in its new home. “The satisfying thing to me is that it still fit together,” Whitacre said. “Everything went together just like a jigsaw puzzle,” he said. “It was good to see it standing there.” Whitacre isn’t finished with the project, however. “I would like to hear some of the stories,” he said.

ITTLE BOSTON — Run to the hills … of North Kitsap ... to The Point Casino where the ladies of rock are gonna shake you all night long. And if you’re a naysayer who thinks they can’t handle the rock, well, you’ve got another thing comin’. In May, The Point Casino is hosting a month-long feature of tribute acts to some of rock’s most distinguished bands: AC/ DC, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin and Judas Priest. “It’s a lot of high energy, and a lot of fun,” said Mandy Reed, bass player for local favorite Hell’s Belles, an AC/DC tribute band. Reed hails from Bremerton, and the other members are Northwest residents. “It’s just good old rock ’n’ roll,” she said. “Adrian, our Angus, is all over the place. See ROCK, Page 3

Continued from page 1 We play the music well. It’s a really fun, high-octane show. Forget work, forget the day. Just go in and have a good time and let your hair down.” Hell’s Belles have been together for 15 years. Recently, its members formed another band that is also appearing at The Point: Belles Bent for Leather, performing the songs of Judas Priest. “It’s a lot of leather and guitar solos,” Reed said. “Amber, our singer, does a fabulous job singing Rob Halford. It’s just a lot of good visual and fun.” The Belles are just two of the four bands that will grace, and rock, The Point’s stage in May. Also coming to town is Zepparella, performing the hits of Led Zeppelin. Los Angeles’ The Iron Maidens will perform, you guessed it, Iron Maiden. Rock music has a heavily male-dominated history, but that hasn’t stopped some women from shredding their way to the top, and the four bands landing at The Point are no exception.
CONCERT SERIES At The Point Casino Event Center, 7989 NE Salish Lane (off Hansville Road), Kingston. n May 9: Zepparella (all-female Zeppelin powerhouse). n May 16: The Iron Maidens (the world’s only female tribute to Iron Maiden). n May 29: Belles Bent For Leather (Hell’s Belles alter ego tribute to Judas Priest). n May 30: Hell’s Belles (World-famous all-female AC/DC tribute band). Tickets: $10 advance, $15 day of show. Call 866-547-6468 or www. the-point-casino.com/ event-calendar /2015/05/ women-rock-in-may-0 “We definitely like to support the ladies playing music, for sure,” Reed said. “Nowadays, it’s more and more common. Back when I started, there wasn’t a whole lot of women playing. “I think you still get the skeptical people that come in and don’t think you can
do it. Unfortunately, that happens and there are still people that think that way. I like to school them a bit. When they come and see us play, they leave surprised. That’s the goal. We like to change the minds of naysayers.” Linda McDonald, drummer for the Iron Maidens, had a similar experience when the band formed 14 years ago, but things have changed since then. “The first shows, we were always met by audiences with crossed arms and they wouldn’t stand near the stage,” McDonald said. “They were disbelievers. It took half a song and it was over, hands were up and they come up to the stage. And they come back.” “They” have been coming back for 14 years. “It’s pretty remarkable, considering we started this all for fun,” McDonald said. “It was just something to do. We thought it would be fun to get out there and play some of the songs we loved. It just hasn’t stopped since then.” Iron Maidens attempts to recreate the arena experience on a smaller scale, McDonald noted.

hits of Led Zeppelin. The band formed nearly a decade ago and have been going strong ever since. “I wanted to learn the catalog of John Bonham and I mentioned that to my guitarist, Gretchen Menn, and she wanted to learn Jimmy Page’s stuff. And that was 11 years ago,” said Clementine, drummer for the band. “We really approach the material from a musical aspect,” Clementine said. “Everyone in the band (is a) really great musician. We like to stretch out an improvise in different part where allowed. There’s a nice cohesive musical joy coming from the stage.” From “The Wicker Man” to “Thunderstruck,” and “Breakin’ the Law” to “Ramble On,” The Point is set to 11 this May. For those women about to rock, we salute you.

Art meets poetry in Ars Poetica 2015 42 works in four venues BREMERTON — For four years, Collective Visions Gallery in Bremerton has been collecting — and then connecting — visions from West Sound poets and artists. Back in 2012, when Collective Visions Gallery first conceived of Ars Poetica, the project involved about 40 West Sound poets and artists. Now, four years later, the project includes works by 84 West Sound poets and artists. This year, for the first time, every one of the 42 jury-selected poets has had at least one poem chosen as inspiration for an artwork by one of the 42 participating artists. Where does the term “Ars Poetica” come from? In Latin, it means “the art of poetry” — title of a poetical epistle written about 20 BC by the Roman poet Horace. In his Ars Poetica, he wrote, “The making of a poem is like that of a painting,” and, “Painters and poets alike have always had license to dare anything. We know
that, and we both claim and allow to others in turn this indulgence.” Ars Poetica is continuing that tradition. In January, West Sound poets were invited to submit poems on any subject. Next, 60 of those poems, by 42 poets, were jury-selected and then presented to the 42 participating artists, who could each select one or more poems to interpret visually in any medium they chose — paintings, drawings, sculptures, fabric arts, photography, etc. One CVG artist, Susan Cavanaugh of Silverdale, selected the following poem, by Anne Kundtz, to interpret:

Unplugged If I listen to my headphones while walking I might miss the morning sky cutting blue lace into the dark fir trees,
Silverdale artist Susan Cavanaugh’s “Morning Song” is a visual interpretation of Bainbridge Island poet Anne Kundtz’s “Unplugged.” Courtesy of the artist
How did Kundtz, a Bainbridge Island teacher
and poet, come to write this poem? Here is what she says: “I have walked in my neighborhood nearly every day for 20 years, sometimes in the black of morning with a headlamp and sometimes in the late afternoon, exhausted from a day of teaching. “Often I walk with friends, or I listen to a poet or a podcast. But one day, that was all too much noise and I turned it all
off. It was lovely. I began to realize how much I was missing on those walks. What I was seeing, hearing, smelling then rose to relax and invigorate me. So I wrote a poem. “I am honored to be a part of Ars Poetica 2015. To blend art and poetry as a way to showcase local artists is a wonderful idea. As a middle school teacher, I’d love to see something of this sort developed at the teen

f that happens, our ferries are the best boats to fall off of. Our state ferries stop quickly and once stopped, the rescue boat can have you back aboard in under ten minutes. That’s important in our 50-degree water where exhaustion comes in 20 to 50 minutes. (Being chubby is a plus.) I learned this, and more, from the Spokane crew’s impressive person-overboard drill. If you see someone go overboard, tell the crew ASAP so they can get the ferry stopped. There’s a roving crew member on the car deck; on the passenger deck, telling the galley will get the word to the crew. Because it’s moving at 400 yards per minute, the sooner the ferry stops the more likely the rescue. Next, throw over a life ring. The orange life ring

FERRYFARE WALT ELLIOTT gives the crew a bright marker near where the person fell over. People alone in the water are hard to see, looking like a “bag of trash.” At a night rescue on Bainbridge, rings were thrown off from each side and the crew was able to head back between the life rings’ blinking lights to find the person. If someone else is nearby when someone goes overboard, have them tell the crew while you throw the ring and — this is important — keep sight of, and point to, the person in the water. Up in the pilot house, they’ll mark the position on their navigation screen while stopping the boat. Then they’ll shift control to the other end and head

back down the ferry’s track. When close to the victim, a rescue boat is launched. The boat has a web-like device to drop into water for rolling weakened victims up into the boat. There’s also a sling, which has been used to tow divers with tanks ashore at Edmonds. While all this is going on, the crew is assembling
the defibrillator (AED), oxygen, blankets and other equipment. Crews often do CPR. Mate Joel Michaels has used the AED twice in the last few months to save two heart-attack victims.

the water nearby, go to it but don’t try to swim any distance. In our cold water, you won’t last long swimming. Kingston-Edmonds has a rescue about monthly, usually rescuing divers from the Edmonds dive park. Being unfamiliar with the hazards, divers become disoriented and exhausted and cannot get back to shore. Ferry crews routinely check buoys for divers hanging on, and check the water for bubbles when docking. If you’re buying a wet suit, consider an orange one as it’s easy to spot and doesn’t look like a seal to an orca. If someone turns up missing, the ferry stops, musters the crew and searches the boat. The Coast Guard runs the search and rescue and the ferry searches back down its track. So that’s one rea-
son for that announcement not to forget your bicycle. The only time a crew member turned up missing on Kingston-Edmonds was one dark night. It later turned out he had been a witness in an out-of-state criminal prosecution. Hmm. In the last couple of years, there have been at least a dozen rail jumpers. Washington State Ferries inevitably pulls jumpers back aboard as they’re too weak to resist. Jumpers make lots of other riders late and also get a $5,000 fine. So, please don’t jump for any reason. But if you do fall in, don’t panic. There’s a top notch crew there to save you.

“Leo, get out there — see and be seen. You are breaking into a future that lets you be all that you are and gives you moments of applause. For you, applause is fuel for growth.” HOROSCOPES May 3-17 Note: If you know your rising sign and moon sign, read those too. Taurus, financial and emotional security are up. Consider what is most important to you and the price you are willing to pay for it. Emotionally, it could be them, it could be you — make no assumptions. Your body knows, though. Partnerships require you to speak up, even if you aren’t perfect. Gemini, with Mercury and Venus in Gemini, women friends can give you invaluable reality checks about how you come across. And, since someone on the horizon has your eye ... relax and do your chatty thing. Be kind to yourself with daily routines — they only have to work for you. Cancer, Venus arrives in your sign May 7 bringing some adoration — which helps you feel good about you. Step out and enlarge your circle to support your long-term goals and dare to put your personal stamp on your life. It may feel risky, but go, little crab — left then right, but go. Leo, get out there —
see and be seen. You are breaking into a future that lets you be all that you are and gives you moments of applause. For you, applause is fuel for growth. Invite power players who can help your star rise home for dinner. And while you are there, reflect humbly on your roots. Bravo! Virgo, there’s a whole lot of talking going, but be sure you are speaking straight, direct and clear. Mercury turns retrograde soon so be sure you are clear — that’s how you get to the future you want. You are the own authority of your life. Otherwise, it’s just one darn thing after another ... Libra, his, hers, ours — it’s about personal and joint possessions. Remember the contributions you make to the joint accounts and be willing to recognize your value. Diplomacy counts with your Venus in sensitive Cancer, but don’t cave. There is a fair, balance point, Libra, and it includes you.

nearest and dearest. The discussion is pushing you forward where you can be seen. Breathe deeply and trust your partners. It’s about grabbing hold of dream. Swing on a star! Sagittarius, if you were a rock band, would you be a rowdy band member or the manager trying to get the group taken seriously? What if you were both? You know you want to rise high. What part of being your own worst enemy do you need to give up? Yep, that is what it is going to take. Capricorn, regrets? (I’ve had a few.) It feels heavy, so call in the clowns. Take every chance to lighten up by doing some gad-about, silly stuff. Ask for extra-sensitive babying, get out into nature and plant a petunia. It’s been hard, but you ain’t dead yet! Deep healing is happening ... be gentle. Aquarius, between home, work and partner, you may feel quite left out, especially on May 11. Remember, you carry the banner for the Age of Aquarius so find your tribe. Tune into TED Talks and listen to them as though they have a message from your future. Still, it’s your voice we need. Pisces, part of you can be extraordinarily logical and that part is very active. Tap in and write down your insights — really, write it down, space cadet. These ideas are pragmatic enough to make real. You have energy, friends and growing authority to make things happen! Make it so. Aries, get your financial ducks in a row and be sure they match your ideals. After May 11, touching base with those who can aid with your objectives will bring surprising results. Time at home is sweet, softening your heart to yourself. There is a solid leader breaking out of the rebel mode here. — Suzanne O’Clair is a practicing astrologer of 40 years.

Meet the hard-working engineers of Carpenter Lake KITSAP OUTDOORS BETSY COOPER
O
n a recent walk to Carpenter Lake, the special bog behind Gordon Elementary School, we were pleasantly surprised to see that there was some urban renewal going on. Well, what I really mean is that we saw a bunch of trees had been downed and rearranged. Also, there were some areas with standing water that had just been damp before. We quickly realized that we were seeing the work of beavers. Beavers are nocturnal animals and are the largest rodents in our area (the only larger rodent is the capybara of South America). Wild beavers typically live about 10-12 years. They can be up to 3-feet long, including a flat tail that can itself be a foot long. They have an important relationship with water and are considered the natural water engineers of watershed, modifying water ways to create homes and places to shelter, feed and raise young. They can stay submerged under water for up to 15 minutes. To be so
Consider taking a trip to Carpenter Lake to view the changes being made by the lake’s resident Courtesy photo beavers. comfortable in the water, their noses and ears have valves that keep water out. They also have two layers of fur and produce an oily substance called castoreum, which they comb through their fur as a waterproofing. They forage for food and do their construction of dams and lodges at night, much of it underwater. Here are some amazing facts about beavers. They have fur-lined lips that close and seal behind their teeth so they can peal bark and carry branches
underwater. They use very strong teeth for gnawing trees, and other work with wood. Their teeth grow continuously through their lives and contain a large amount of iron, giving them strength and an orange color. They use these teeth to cut down trees for making structures they live in and for areas to store food. While they don’t eat the trees cut down, they do strip and eat bark and consume smaller branches. They have colonies of microorganisms in their
You can see the affect they are having in the area around Carpenter Lake. If you take the short walk that starts in the Gordon Elementary parking lot behind the portable buildings and down the marked trail in the woods behind the school, you will encounter — just as you reach the boardwalk area — sections with standing water. Look to your left and you will see tree stumps with that characteristic whittled shape that shows beavers have chopped them down. When you look to your right farther on, you will see a beaver dam keeping the water level a bit higher than it had been before. This kind of engineering
gives beavers homes, but it also is beneficial along creeks because it increases shallow water habitat for young salmon. So, consider taking a trip to Carpenter Lake if it’s been a while since you have been — or if you have never been. It is a rare sphagnum bog with a kettle hole lake in the middle located in our Carpenter Creek watershed. It is a wonderful place to view birds, specialized bog plants like sun dews (carnivorous plants) and Labrador Tea — and now, to see the signs of industrious beavers. — Contact Betsy Cooper at betsycooper1@gmail.com.
guts that allow them to digest cellulose. Beavers are vegetarians, eating bark, clover, water plant tubers, leaves and even apples. While they are food themselves for coyotes, weasels, eagles and domestic dogs, one of their important defenses is their lifestyle — living in and on the water. They are called natural water engineers because they build structures that hold water on the landscape so that the entrances to the dens/ lodges are hidden from predators.

Barbera finding a home in the Pacific Northwest Coyote Canyon Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills grows many varieties, including Barbera.
NW WINES By ANDY PERDUE and ERIC DEGERMAN
I
n its native Italy, Barbera is the thirdmost-planted red wine grape — after Sangiovese and Montepulciano — but here in the Pacific Northwest, it isn’t much more than a niche variety. But interest in the bright, rich red variety is beginning to grow as winemakers and consumers alike begin to stretch their imaginations and exploration of wines beyond Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. Barbera is most often associated with the Piedmont region, which is in the northwestern corner of Italy. In Piedmont, Barbera is grown alongside Nebbiolo and Dolcetto. It ultimately is made into an approachable wine with lots of rich, ripe fruit backed by ample acidity and modest to low tannins.
Eric Degerman / Great Northwest Wine
This makes Barbera a perfect accompaniment to tomato-based Italian dishes such as pizza, lasagna, linguine and spaghetti and meatballs. Barbera has been
proven to grow well in a diversity of regions, and it certainly has found a comfortable home in the Pacific Northwest, particularly in the warm and arid Columbia Valley

of Eastern Washington. The dry, sunny conditions appear to be ideal for Barbera, and the handful of winemakers who work with the grape find it creates delicious, food friendly and crowd-pleasing wines. Here are five superb examples of Barbera, all from Washington and Oregon wineries. Each of these won a gold medal at the third annual Great Northwest Wine Competition, which was staged in March at the Columbia Gorge Hotel in Hood River, Oregon. These are made in small amounts, so ask for them at your favorite wine merchant or contact the wineries directly. ■ Lady Hill Winery 2013 Red Willow Vineyard Procedo Barbera, Columbia Valley, $25: Lady Hill Winery is in the
Willamette Valley town of St. Paul, Oregon, and it brings in grapes from throughout the Northwest. This luscious Barbera comes from highly touted Red Willow Vineyard in the western Yakima Valley and is crafted by winemaker Erik Brasher. Aromas of black cherry, cola and minerality give way to flavors of blackberry and boysenberry. Mild tannins provide just enough grip to create the perfect structure. ■ Coyote Canyon Winery 2012 Barbera, Horse Heaven Hills: $26: Mike Andrews owns this small winery in the Yakima Valley town of Prosser, and these grapes come from estate vineyards in the Horse Heaven Hills. This expression of the racy Italian grape offers aromas of plump red and purple fruit, followed
“Barbera is made into an approachable wine with lots of rich, ripe fruit backed by a ample acidity and modest to low tannins.” by luscious flavors of blackberry, Bing cherry, sarsaparilla and a vein of minerality. Its mild tannins make this beautifully approachable. ■ Cathedral Ridge Winery 2013 Bolton Vineyard Reserve Barbera, Columbia Valley, $48: This young wine from a top Columbia Gorge producer in Hood River uses grapes from near Dallesport, Washington. The resulting wine opens with complex aromas of minerality, plump dark fruit and a hint of dark chocolate, followed by round, luscious flavors of espresso, blackberry cobbler and a touch of French vanilla. ■ Mt. Hood Winery 2012 Barbera, Columbia Valley, $28: Winemaker Rich Cushman crafts the wines for this Hood River producer. It opens with notes of cherry reduction sauce, sarsaparilla, horehound and slate. On the palate, it offers flavors of plush Rainier cherry, round pomegranate and ripe red plum. Mild tannins make this a delicious wine to enjoy now. ■ Cascade Cliffs Vineyard & Winery 2013 Barbera, Columbia Valley, $60: Longtime Columbia Gorge winemaker Bob Lorkowski is known for producing superb reds in boutique amounts, and this beautiful Barbera is another great example. It opens with aromas of elegant spices, ripe raspberry and a sprinkling of cocoa powder. On the palate, it offers flavors of Rainier cherry, black raspberry and pomegranate. Racy acidity provides ample structure, and this is a perfect wine to enjoy with rich Italian dishes. — Eric Degerman and Andy Perdue run Great Northwest Wine, a news and information company. www.greatnorthwestwine. com.

‘Flavor Flours’ will help you expand your palate, and your mind GLUTEN-FREE FOODIES
“Flavor Flours” will have you looking at — and using — flour in a new way.
By LISA GARZA
O
h, what a lovely surprise! This gorgeous cookbook — “Flavor Flours” by Alice Medrich — is such a gift in so many ways. The cookbook offers stunning detailed insight on using a variety of flours as “hero ingredients” for flavor, rather than as substitutions for wheat. There are more than 125 purely decadent recipes that will expand your palate and your mind. Medrich uses whole, ancient grains and nut flours that just happen to be gluten-free. Regardless if you have read one or all of Medrich’s cookbooks you know how brilliant she is with incorporating just a few ingredients that create a masterful mouthful of pure delight. Medrich started experimenting with non-wheat flours with her cookbook, “Pure Desserts,” and replaced a portion of the wheat for a new or different gluten-free flour. Much to her surprise, the recipes turned out more flavorful, delicate and decadent. So, in “Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunch Melt-In-Your-Mouth Cookies,” the ultimate cookie lover’s cookbook, she worked on a few more recipes with the new flavor flours and treated them as “hero ingredients” without wheat. So, after years of testing one recipe after another, it is time for all of us to celebrate the flavor and hero ingredients that Medrich calls “Flavor Flours.” I absolutely appreciate the organization and layout of “Flavor Flours,” which includes eight sections with fine points about each — rice, oat, corn and cornmeal, buckwheat, chestnut, teff, sorghum, Nut and Coconut flours. Each section includes recipes that shine the light on the specific hero ingredient. In addition, the final
Lisa Garza
elements section provides a wealth of knowledge on how to customize or accompany any recipe. This includes tips and tricks for bakers of all experiences. Just imagine Chocolate Génoise, Nutmeg Shortbread, Chestnut Jam Tart, Seed Crackers, Boston Cream Pie, Apricot Walnut Rugelach and Maya’s Chocolate Fudge Cake with Milk Chocolate Frosting or Dark Chocolate Soufflés! Plus so many more. Did I mention that “Flavor Flours” is 368 pages? Practically every page is filled with tantalizing photography that will make you want to dive into your kitchen to bake and indulge. A few years ago, when I met Medrich and had
a brief discussion about gluten-free flours, I couldn’t help but be giddy to think that Alice Medrich, a James Beard Award-winning author, was interested in baking with flours that happen to be gluten-free. I love this cookbook so much it will be the center of my coffee table and may never get to rest on a shelf. This cookbook is so perfectly exquisite that it makes a lovely gift for everyone. I think it is wonderful for any baker to expand their flour horizons and learn about the plethora of flours available to us. This lovely cookbook only needs a big red bow to give as a gift. — Read Lisa Garza’s blog at www.glutenfree foodies.co.

BAINBRIDGE ISLAND REVIEW Quiet protest expected: School grounds were expected to be quiet April 30 across Bainbridge Island as teachers walked off the job to protest the state Legislature’s inadequate funding of public education. Teachers and families planned to gather in downtown Winslow to greet morning commuters with signs displaying their displeasure for the lack of state funding. Educators also planned to caravan to Olympia to meet with Sen. Christine Rolfes, said David Layton, president of the Bainbridge Island Education Association, the union that represents public teachers on the island. There was to be no protesting in front of schools or on school grounds, Layton noted. “That’s not what the message is,” he said. “There’s still going to be classified people [on campus] and deliveries [going on] and we just want school to be neutral.” Parents were asked on April 27 to find alternate care for their school-aged children during the walkout. Afternoon activities were not expected to be impacted as teachers involved with after-school programs would be back from Olympia in time, Layton said. Layton has said repeatedly that the protest was not
aimed at the local school district, but rather at the state Legislature for not keeping its promise to fund education. — BainbridgeReview.com
BREMERTON PATRIOT Taiwan officials discuss economic development: Bremerton port commissioners were scheduled to host a delegation of officials from Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, for an economic development discussion and tour April 30 at Bremerton National Airport. The meeting, in the Bill Mahan Conference Room in the port administration offices, is open to the public. The delegation includes Andy Chin, director general of the Taipei Economic & Cultural Office in Seattle; and six Taipei business leaders. According to a special meeting notice issued by the port, Taipei and Bremerton officials were to “discuss economic development opportunities” in Kitsap. The Taipei delegation was welcomed at 9:45 a.m. by port CEO Jim Rothlin. Kitsap Economic Development Alliance executive director John Powers was scheduled to brief officials on Kitsap’s economy at 10:15 a.m. The mayors of Bremerton and Port Orchard, and U.S. Rep. Derek Kilmer, D-Bremerton, were scheduled to
comment at 10:30 a.m., followed by comments from the members of the Taipei delegation. At 11:15 a.m., a tour of the airport and industrial park was scheduled, followed by lunch at Port Orchard’s Lighthouse restaurant. — BremertonPatriot.com
CENTRAL KITSAP REPORTER Central Kitsap cancels school for teacher walkout May 7: A teacher’s union walkout on May 7, to protest legislative proposals on school funding, led the Central Kitsap School District to cancel school that day. The district is asking parents to arrange alternate care for their children. All after-school activities and athletics for kindergarten through eighth grade will be cancelled or rescheduled. Schools will start rescheduling activities and athletics and will communicate through their regular channels. All high school AP testing and after-school athletics will continue as originally scheduled. The union has been clear that this walkout is not directed at Central Kitsap School District or our community. It is part of a statewide effort to influence the Legislature. The union indicates that its purpose is to apply political pressure to do what teachers believe is right for students. The school board must approve any make-up days. The district will propose making up the missed day of school on June 17. This date was originally scheduled on the district calendar as a possible makeup day. The district said it apologized for the inconvenience the walkout might cause to students and their families. — CentralKitsapReporter. com

creative juices flowing,” said seventh-grader Izzy Poole. Poole is one of many students whose work was shown during the festival April 29 at Kingston Middle School, which included students from every school in the district. Poole is one of the fashion students at Kingston Middle School who presented a fashion show during the festival, featuring artistic clothes made from garbage bags. The festival included performances by choirs, drummers, acrobats, guitarists, dancers and others. It featured fiber arts, paintings and drawings, pottery, a “make and take” section, a community papier-mache project and more. The location changes schools every year, said Kingston Middle School art teacher Diane Stewart. “As art teachers, we get an opportunity to really be the leader of it for a year,” Stewart said, “which is kind of exciting. Kind of exciting and a little nerve wracking.” Since this was Stewart’s year to be “the head honcho,” she added a unique feature to the festival: an Empty Bowls Drive. “It’s about a 25- to 30-year(old) thing, where artists make bowls and donate them, and then people will fill them with soup or salad or whatever the people decide, and then the people get to keep the bowls,” Stewart said. The bowls are “sold” for donations; the proceeds go to charity. At the Festival of the Arts, the bowls were filled with ice cream. Donations, suggested at $10, will go to ShareNet, a food bank and thrift store in Kingston.
The donations are tax deductible. “I wanted to make sure that I gave a clear message to my art students that I think art can make a real difference in the world,” Stewart said, “so whenever artists take their time and donate pieces of artwork and then give the money away, I think that’s a very important message — that they know that art really can save the world, like the bumper sticker says.” But the festival benefitted more than just ShareNet. It also benefitted students. “I think that we see a lot of athletes shining and we get to see a lot of people have a way to celebrate their uniqueness,” Stewart said, “and I think the Festival of the Arts really brings out a lot of kids that might be overlooked, and so I think it really gives some kids an opportunity to seriously shine.” Heidi Lenz said, “It shows (students) teamwork, working with others, getting ideas from all sorts of places and it just boosts their creativity and their social life.” Poole added, “It’s fun for people to look at their friends’ art.” — NorthKitsapHerald.com
PORT ORCHARD INDEPENDENT South Kitsap Fire and Rescue levy approved: Voters resoundingly approved South Kitsap Fire and Rescue Proposition No. 1 on April 28 to renew a property tax levy for emergency medical services for another six years. More than 76 percent of the 12,678 voters that cast ballots voted in favor of the resolution.
“We’re very pleased with the support of the citizens,” SKFR Fire Chief Steve Wright said. “I’m glad they were willing to continue to fund us at the existing rate.” The current levy, which expires Dec. 31, is 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation annually for South Kitsap property owners. The EMS levy covers for staffing paramedics and emergency medical technicians, equipment and supplies. SKFR serves more than 72,046 residents in a 117-square-mile area. In 2014, SKFR responded to 9,068 calls for service, an average of more than 24 calls per day from the 911 system. Medical-related responses totaled 6,157, 68 percent of SKFR’s calls. A simple majority was required to pass the levy. There were 9,661 votes in favor of the levy and 3,017 against it. SKFR’s current levy was last approved in 2009. “They tend to have a fairly good level of support,” Wright said. “We touch a lot of people with our call volume and I think people recognize that.” Wright said the EMS levy is 25 percent of the district’s tax collection. But, “70 percent of our work is medical emergencies,” he said. With the $1.50 fire levy and 50-cent EMS levy, the owner of a $200,000 home would pay approximately $400 a year for SKFR services. Wright said the EMS levy would generate about $3.5 million per year. — PortOrchardIndepen dent.com

ay is a great month to experience — and learn more about — some of the cultures of North Kitsap. The Suquamish people are one of the indigenous peoples of the Kitsap Peninsula. The Treaty of Point Elliott of 1855 made land in the region available for non-native settlement, and Norwegians began settling in what is now Poulsbo in the 1880s, attracted by similarity in climate and resources to their native country. Poulsbo’s population doubled and diversified during the Second World War. Today, people of Mexican and Central American ancestry comprise 10.9 percent of Poulsbo’s population, according to the U.S. Census.

LIBERTY BAY AUTO CENTER CELEBRATES ITS 25TH ANNIVERSARY!

Reaching for another 25 years of great service BY LESLIE KELLY

A
nyone entering Liberty Bay Auto Center in Poulsbo might think they’ve stepped back in time, to the 1950s. They might think that they’re in a small diner and that the Fonz may come around the corner any minute. Although the decor is from the 1950s, the business is just completing its 26th year, and looking forward to another 25 or more. “I’d love to be right here in another 25 years, celebrating our 50th,” said owner Dean Church. “Our customers know we’re here for them today and we’ll be here for them tomorrow.” A community “celebration” of the business’s 25th anniversary happened last summer with a party in the parking lot where the band Jr. Cadillac played. But Liberty Bay Auto Center is happy to share its story of success with the Kitsap community. According to Dean, it
was his father Sandy who was the motivation behind Liberty Bay Auto Center which came to Poulsbo in 1989. Dean grew up on Bainbridge Island and feels
“First of all, I like to do business in Poulsbo when I can,” he said. “I’ve known Kevin (Hogan) my salesman for a long time. He’s been there forever. Liberty Bay has always treated me well ever since I bought my first car from about 15 years ago. In total, I’ve bought four cars from Contibuted Photo them.” Poulsbo Lumber, the future Liberty Bay Auto Center as it appeared in the late fifties. – Jeff Eagleson, owner of J.J.’s Fish House in Poulsbo that this plays an important part because this is where his roots are and where his children are growing up also. His father was a partner
with his brother-in-law at Bill Smith Cadillac, Oldsmobile, Toyota and Volvo in Bremerton for 20 plus years. “When I was young, I’d spend the weekends there,” Dean said. “My first job was to go around and pick up cigarette butts at the car lot.
Congratulations Liberty Bay Auto for 25 years of providing business and service to Kitsap! Thank you for your contributions to our Community!

“That was in the early 1970s “when most everybody smoked,” he said. But advancement was in his future. His next job was weeding, and then, eventually washing cars on the lot. “I was always interested in cars,” he said. “I loved working around them
and when I returned from Washington State University, I began selling cars for my dad in Bremerton.” When his father sold out of that dealership, Dean opted to sell cars in Seattle but soon found he missed the familiarity of folks in Kitsap County.
“I wanted to connect with people when I worked with them and that just wasn’t happening over there,” he said. “So I came back to Kitsap and worked at Parr Ford for a couple of years.” Dean and his father were looking for a location to begin a used car business. They discovered the right location when they found the former Poulsbo Lumber site at the Head of Liberty Bay in Poulsbo. “We looked all over Bremerton, Bellingham, Bellevue - but we ended up right here in Poulsbo,” Dean said. They began buying cars to sell, but until they had the needed permits, they couldn’t put the cars on the lot. “We had about 26 cars inside this building,” he said. “On the first day we opened, we pulled them all outside. We had five or six employees when we started.” Because the former lumber business building was so large, they also rented out space to individuals who needed somewhere

to store their boats. At the time they had a very small service department, and over the years, it, and the sales operation have grown to need every inch of space in the building. The building has been renovated and updated several times, including last year when they installed solar panels on the roof in order to be more energy efficient. It took Dean 17 years to buy out the stock of Liberty Bay Auto Center from his father, who worked in the business until about eight years ago. Sandy and Sally still reside in Hansville and spend winter months in warmer climates. Dean and his wife Sherri own the property as well as the building to the south, which houses Autoglass Clinic, Mobile Radio, and Performing Arts, a dance studio. Sherri is also the office manager and manages all the monthly financial statements. The auto center includes just about any make and model of car, and the company has two full time employees that are on the road buying late-model lowmileage cars, according to Doug Haughton, general manager for Liberty Bay. “We get them from lease returns, from residents who have received orders with the military to move overseas and can’t take their cars, to others who advertise their cars for sale,” Haughton said. “We buy other dealers’ trade-ins and we do buy at the auctions.” At any one time, Liberty Bay has about 65 to 75 cars on its lot and as far as turn over, Haughton said just about every car, every month comes in and goes out. “Our business model is to bring in barely used cars, and get them on their way to a new owner,” he said. “But we do that by

General Manager Doug Haughton matching cars to customers in a way that doesn’t include pressure sales.” Instead, he said, employees listen to the customers’ needs and help them choose the right automobile. “We consider ourselves consultants,” he said. “Our sales people have the ability to understand the needs of our customers, and then work diligently to meet those needs. It’s not about shoe-horning some one in to a car because they happen to drool on it on the way in.” It may be that the customer needs a bigger car, something that seats more people. Or it may be that they need a newer car but have financial concerns. Or it may be that they just
want to make their neighbors jealous. “We listen,” Haughton said. “That’s why our customers return again and again. We treat them like family, with respect. It’s not like they’re dollar signs to us. They’re not a number.” Haughton has been with Liberty Bay Auto Center for many, many years and a part of Deans family before Liberty Bay Auto Center opened. He’s been in the car business for 53 years. “I’m actually thinking about making it my career,” he joked. As a youngster, he loved cars and he knew that’s what he wanted to do when he got older. He met Sandy Church 35 years ago when they worked together at a

dealership in Bremerton. It’s Haughton who brought about the 1950s diner-style look to the car business in Poulsbo. Besides being a fixed-wing and helicopter pilot, he collects and restores automobile related signs, memorabilia and gas pumps. “I’ve got some in my airplane hangar, at my house, and I’ve restored all of these that are owned by Dean and Sherri,” he said, pointing around the car showroom. “I’ve been doing this for years, and in 1999, when I became general manager here, I converted the place and gave it this theme.” Among his favorites are a 1929 bright yellow Wayne gasoline pump a 1951 Erie pump which he restored from looking as if they were just junk, to a pristine condition. “In rust we trust,” he joked. “I tell people rust is my favorite color.” In the showroom, sales desks look like 1950s tables at the diner. Each has a personalized license plate with the sales person’s name on it in their booth. And there’s a red and white diner booth in the front of the showroom for customers to sit at while they wait. Vintage bicycles sit on the showroom floor near a couple of modern-day cars that are for sale. Every wall is covered with old photographs and signs such as the “Approved Packard Service” sign. “We like to have fun here,” Haughton said. “But we take our customers’ needs seriously.” In fact, he and Dean think that’s why the business has succeeded. “We see our customers at the grocery store and all around town,” Dean said. “We want to be able to know that they’re happy with their purchase, ser-

vice repairs and detailing so we make every sale right and we do what we need to to see that that happens.”
“I’ve been with Liberty Bay Auto since Sandy first bought it. I knew him from the dealership in Bremerton and then he started the used car business in Poulsbo. “I’ve bought cars from Liberty Bay and so has my son. It’s absolutely the only place I’d go. – Jerry Cooper, retired Poulsbo Fire Marshal All vehicles come with a full tank of gas, a second set of keys and a free first lube, oil and filter change, 90 day warranty and a 48 hour money back guarantee. In 2014, the auto business sold 1,500 cars and completed 10,000 repairs. It averages 800 to 900 repairs a month in its service & detail division which will work on cars whether or not they were purchased at Liberty Bay Auto Center. Liberty Bay is known for its complete service, which includes vacuuming and a car wash with every service. Liberty Bay Auto Center has top ratings from American Automobile Association and has been named a Top Shop by AAA for multiple years. It has been voted as the West Sound’s Best Dealership in Kitsap County for many years straight. They have also received Five Stars from EnviroStar for its environmental work. Besides the solar energy they store and use, they also use LED lights inside
and out and have replaced florescent tubes with T8 energy-saving tubes. “We want to be very efficient with our use of energy,” Dean said. “It’s fun to see the meter slow down and see that we’re saving energy in the long run.” In all, Liberty Bay employs 45 people in administration, service, detail and sales. Many of them are long term employees like Russ Shorten, a service technician who has been with the dealership since day one. Salesman Kevin Hogan has been with the company for 16 years. “This company sells a nice product,” Hogan said. “And we take care of our customers before, during and after the sale. It’s just not that way at other dealerships.” Hogan said there are no gimmicks when they sell. “We’re here to serve our customers,” he said. “We’re not out here to make quotas or pressure sell anything. We really want to fit our customers with what they need so they’ll be back when they need their next car. And that happens all the time.” In fact, Liberty Bay Auto Center has sold cars to many families whose children and grandchildren are now buying cars from us. Like their motto says, “We’re the friendliest car store on the planet,” and that’s another reason Haughton thinks they’ve been so successful. “We look at our customer base as a long term relationship, not just a one-time sale,” he said. “Generations have come here. We know families and we watch them as they grow. It’s like we’re all just one big family.”
Happy 25th Anniversary Liberty Bay Auto Thank you for being a huge and positive part of our community. We appreciated winning your traveling t-shirt contest. Congratulations on 25 years! - Todd & Sue Tidball

The Autoglass Clinic & Mobile Radio Serving Kitsap County Since 1982 33 years ago Ron Ohnhaus followed his dream to start his own car accessory business after serving in the Navy for 10 years as a Sub Mariner. He started the business out of the back of his 1972 Volkswagen installing radios for car dealerships and at night repairing radios at his kitchen table. It didn’t take long before Ron Ohnhaus built the business into several stores in the Kitsap area. In 1998 he merged Mobile Radio with another well known business in Poulsbo, The Autoglass Clinic, owned by a friend Doug Haughton. This would make for a great partnership with both having the same grass roots customer service and quality workmanship as their #1 priority. Doug and Ron retired from the business to start new ventures. For Ron it was as a Farmers Agent in Bremerton and for Doug, General Manager of Liberty Bay Auto Center. Ron Ohnhaus Jr. started the second generation of the 4 Bremerton First location in 198 and his children aus. company in 2000 with his wife Adrienne who is the Ron Ohnhaus Sr. an Laura Ohnh Ron Ohnhaus Jr. d Office Manager for the Company. The Autoglass Clinic & Mobile Radio owe its success to its hard working and caring staff as well as our continued loyal Kitsap County customers and friends over the past 33 years. We look forward to serving our customers for many more years to come. Thank you to everyone that has made the last 33 years possible.

The Kitsap Great Give The Kitsap Great By Kol Medina, Kitsap Community Foundation Executive Director
What is the Kitsap Great Give? 2014 was the first year of the Kitsap Great Give. In that first installment, over 2,000 different donors gave $540,000 to 200 nonprofits working in Kitsap County. Simply put, that was the greatest single day of charity that Kitsap County has ever experienced! This year, in the second year of the Kitsap Great Give, the goal is to raise at least $750,000 in online donations for local nonprofits. Whether or not we reach that goal and provide this amazing gift to our local nonprofits is up to you and the thousands of other residents of this County who we hope will participate on May 5. No donation is too small, so please take part in the Great Give.
Why should I bother to donate online on May 5? There are lots of reasons to take part on May 5. First, you’ll be part of something bigger than yourself, a group of thousands of people who donate that day to celebrate and support 230 nonprofit organizations working in every corner of the Greater Kitsap area. If we all take part, we can smash the goal of raising $750,000 that day! Second, this is your chance to learn about all of the wonderful nonprofits that are working hard every day to make our communities better places to live, work, and play. At www.kitsapgreatgive.org you can view the profiles of 230 nonprofits that work in Kitsap County. Third, any donations you make
This publication is produced by:
that day will be magnified by sponsors of the event. For instance, if you donate $100 to a nonprofit through www.kitsapgreatgive.org that day, the nonprofit will actually receive $110, $115, or more dollars. You see, some very generous sponsors have donated over $140,000 to this event. That money will be given to all of the nonprofits taking part on May 5 – the more donations a nonprofit receives, the more of the $140,000 they will receive. So make sure you donate to your favorite nonprofits on May 5 and help them get part of that $140,000!
Give’s Sponsors
Finally, there are fun prizes throughout the day. For instance, between 9:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. that day, one donor will be randomly chosen each hour. The winning donor each hour will have $250 added to their donation! Take part on May 5 and help “your” nonprofits win these prizes!

Lead Sponsors $20,000 +
Sponsors $10,000
So how exactly does it work? It’s very simple, really. For 24 hours, from 12:00 a.m. on May 5 until 11:59, May 5, you can go to www. kitsapgreatgive.org, look through the 230 local nonprofits listed there, and donate as much or as little ($10 minimum) to as many nonprofits as you’d like in a single transaction using a credit card. That’s it. The website will keep a running total in real-time of the total amount raised so far; so you can check in throughout the day and see if we’re getting close to the $750,000 goal. And you can also see, in real-time, how much money each of “your” nonprofits has raised that day. Help nonprofits. Help our communities. Win prizes for your nonprofits. Feel good about yourself. Please be a part of the biggest day of charity in our County’s history!

The Importance of Charitable Giving in our Communities
Mother Teresa once said, “To keep a lamp burning, we have to keep putting oil in it.” I like to think of this quote in the context of philanthropy (charitable giving). I think of the size of the flame in the lamp as a sign of the health of our communities; and I think of philanthropy as the oil in the lamp. Charitable giving, the dollars and time that we all give to nonprofits in our community, has a huge impact on the size of the flame because the nonprofits in our community provide so many of the services and qualities that make our communities healthy. The Kitsap Great Give is designed to put a lot of oil in our communities’ lamps. If we all take part in the event, we’ll raise over $750,000 for nonprofits in our community on May 5. It will be the largest day of charity ever experienced in this County, the single greatest injection of oil ever made into the lamp! 230 different nonprofits are eligible to receive your donations at www.kitsapgreatgive.org on May 5.
That’s 230 organizations that educate our children and adults, protect and improve our environment, take care of our elderly and disabled, provide fun and meaning through arts and culture, support our veterans, provide food to the hungry, give clothes to the poor, and help to heal those suffering from drug addictions and mental health issues. I encourage you to go to www.kitsapgreatgive.org on May 5 and, if nothing else, just look through all of the nonprofits listed there and see the immense benefits that nonprofits and philanthropy bring to our community. We need to keep all of these lamps burning brightly. As it stands already, a lot of oil is put into our nonprofit lamps in the greater Kitsap area. In 2012, a massive study was released showing the level of giving in each community around our country in 2008 (you can look it up online at “How America Gives” and search by your city). This study found
that the good citizens of Kitsap County donated over $105 million dollars to charity in 2008. And the study was only capturing about 60% of actual giving, which means it is likely that members of our community –you, me, and all of our neighbors in this County – donated over $150 million to charity in 2008. That ranks Kitsap County as the 255th most giving county in the country (out of 3,115 counties). Also of note is the total revenue of the nonprofits in our community. There are approximately 250 public charities based in Kitsap County. In 2012, they had a combined revenue of $650 million. That’s $650 million that these nonprofits spent to help us, our neighbors, and our families and to make our community a better place to live, work, and play. Please support these nonprofits by putting oil in the lamp at www.kitsapgreatgive.org on May 5!

Once again United Way of Kitsap County would like to thank both the Kitsap Community Foundation for establishing the Kitsap Great Give and all of the many sponsors who have contributed to the local matching pool of dollars. This year, thanks to the great success of last year’s Great Give, the sponsorship pool is increased over last year; that means even more matching dollars for those who contribute this year. The Kitsap Great Give is a growing opportunity for not only the participating charities, but for the donors, and the community as a whole. Remember, all of the funds raised on this one day of giving will go to the hard working and dedicated
nonprofit agencies throughout Kitsap County that make up our community’s safety net. This network of nonprofits, including United Way and the Kitsap Community Foundation, strive every day to provide a safety net services to help the less fortunate and vulnerable families struggling to make ends meet each day. These services are critical to providing safe, warm housing and adequate food on the family table. As a Presenting Partner alongside the Kitsap Community Foundation, we are invested in the Kitsap Great Give’s matching funds pool and pledge that every dollar pledged to United Way on May 5th will also be invested in programs that help people in our community who are struggling to survive. We are committed and work hard every year to raise charitable dollars to meet the most critical needs facing the Kitsap
Communities. The Kitsap Great Give is one more way to help the safety net of health and human service agencies aid those most in need. Together we can help lift individuals and families out of poverty and create a better life for their children. To those who participate in this day of giving, we thank you in advance for partnering with United Way, Kitsap Community Foundation and all of the Great Give Sponsors for your gifts. It is through charitable giving that the Board of Directors at United Way and the Kitsap Community Foundation are able to help provide a strong and vibrant community safety net giving those most vulnerable in our community an opportunity for a better life.

If there was no hospital? This is the story for many in Burkina Faso, the most illiterate country in the world. Last summer, Mohamed, a boy who came down with meningitis, and his parents had to travel on a bicycle 20 miles to the nearest hospital. They were turned away because the hospital was concerned he would contaminate other patients. This happens every day around the world because people do not have access to such basic needs like health care, clean water and education. When you give to Walk In the Light International (WITLI), on May 5th, you become part of the solution. Founded in 2009, WITLI's goal is to give children, like Mohamed, an opportunity to be the change-agent of their future, their families and their country.

This isolation can bring on depression, compound illnesses, and even lead to untimely death. Since 2001 Faith in Action has been supporting the seniors of North Mason and South Kitsap by providing volunteer-based, free, non-medical services. In 2008, in response to the unmet needs of our senior's for community we began fundraising for the HUB Center for Seniors. The HUB is now being built at 111 NE Old Belfair Hwy. in Belfair. Even though building has begun, we are still in need of funds to finish and furnish the first class facility that our senior's deserve. Partner with Faith in Action and honor your senior family members, friends and neighbors by giving them a warm and loving place to thrive. For more information call Patti at: 360-275-0535.

In 1984 the Thrift store moved to 1117 N. Callow and the Food bank and Assistance Office to 1137 N. Callow. The Assistance Office and Food Bank serve food baskets, government commodities, clothing furniture, furnishings, school supplies and various other types of assistance, which includes rental and utility funding to all those in need. Special holiday food baskets are available for families struggling during the Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter holidays. Compassionate assistance is given at no cost and without discrimination.
