SKSD officials again will pursue a second high school District has not had a successful bond measure since 1988 By CHRIS CHANCELLOR
cchancellor@soundpublishing.com
South Kitsap School District officials again will try to construct a second high school. Superintendent Michelle Reid
gained unanimous approval from the school board during a June 23 meeting to pursue a capital-facilities bond next year to construct a new high school on the 56-acre plot the district purchased in 2003 near the intersection of Old Clifton and Feigley roads.
“I’m ready to go,” board member Greg Wall said. “We should go for it. I see no advantage to waiting. I think it’s important. Our population is growing.” Fellow board member Patty Henderson shared similar senti-
ments. “We’ve been talking about this for years,” she said. “I would like to think our community is ready now because that’s what we hear all of the time.” Henderson was on the school board when the last attempt to construct a second high school failed in 2007. At that time, district officials asked for a $163.2 million capital-facilities bond that would have paid
for a new high school, rebuilt South Colby Elementary and improved technology infrastructure, roofing, heating and cooling systems, and physical education and athletic programs. It failed by about 8 percentage points of the required 60 percent to pass. SKSD has not had a successful bond measure since February 1988.

WSF fares may rise twice to cover budget shortfall By BOB SMITH
rsmith@portorchardindependent.com
Vehicle and passenger fares on Washington State Ferries are likely to rise once more on Oct. 1, and again May 1, 2016. WSF says it has determined that the 2015-17 state transportation budget recently passed by the state Legislature is insufficient to fully fund the ferry system’s operation. Ferry

officials have recommended to the Washington State Transportation Commission that it approve fare increases of 2.5 percent for drivers and 1 percent for passengers and walk-ons. The proposed increase would close the funding gap, according to WSF officials, by also including an second, identical rate increase in May 2016. The state transportation commission will hold public hearings in July across the Puget Sound region in areas that are served by WSF, according to the commission representative Eralee Sawtell. Residents living in the Port Orchard area can attend a hearing in Bremerton July 22 at the Kitsap Conference Center at Bremerton Harborside. The hearing will be held at 6 p.m. in the Oyster Bay conference room, 100 Washington Ave. Those unable to attend the Bremerton session can go online at 12 p.m. July 13 and participate in a virtual public hearing.

SKSD explores high school partnership with Olympic College By CHRIS CHANCELLOR
cchancellor@soundpublishing.com
South Kitsap School District and Olympic College officials will explore a partnership at a potential new high-school campus. That was agreed upon during a June 23 meeting between both parties at SKSD’s administrative office. Michelle Reid, SKSD superintendent, said the partnership could entail an electrical-engineering lab that would be used by students from both schools. She said the building could be open to students within the district from 7:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. during weekdays with OC attendees using it after those hours. That would only be possible if the district passes a capital-facilities bond next year to construct a new high school on a 56-acre plot the district purchased in 2003 near the intersection of Old Clifton and Feigley roads. Jim Page, chairman for
OC’s Board of Trustees, said a potential partnership is appealing because more students from SKSD attend the college than those from any other area. “We are making a concerted effort to reach out to all of the school districts,” he said. “But we know you guys have been a great feeder school district.” Olympic College President David Mitchell shared similar sentiments. “There really is a strong connection with South Kitsap,” he said. “Sometimes people see the [attendance] numbers and they are surprised.” According to Reid, 60 percent of high-school graduates in Washington “successfully enter post-secondary education,” which she said means being “career and college ready.” She said SKSD’s average was 46 percent upon her arrival and has increased to 51 percent. For the Class of
2020, Reid wants that number at 80 percent. She believes a partnership with OC would help move the district toward that goal. Reid also noted that there is a shortage of engineers — and many students who plan to major in that subject switch because of the challenges they encounter with classwork. She feels a partnership could remedy some of those issues because students would learn — and receive support — with their work at a younger age. While several OC board members expressed interest in the project, Mitchell said the “larger challenge” would be obtaining capital funding from the state to move forward. OC board member Alice Tawresey suggested that a joint committee comprising educators from both institutions investigate the possibility and report back to both boards in August or September.

Get ready for a wild ending to your virtual hydroplane ride By BOB SMITH
rsmith@portorchardindependent.com
In this age of video games and virtual reality excitement, a new attraction — a hydroplane simulator — should be an attention grabber at the Fathoms O’ Fun Summer Festival June 27-28 in Port Orchard. The simulator earlier was the Buccaneer racing hydro in its former life, says Bob Wright, spokesman for Jerry Hopp Racing, which owns the unique piece of equipment. It will sitting firmly on terra firma atop a boat trailer at Marina Park, but people who climb aboard the vessel will experience a wild, virtual watery ride inside. Greg Hopp, son of legendary driver Jerry Hopp, purchased the 1974-era racing machine and gave it new life by equipping it with a video screen that provides a up-close-and-personal simulated experience. For a $3 fee that goes to pay down the Fathoms O’ Fun fireworks bill from last year, rookie ”drivers” will spend four or five minutes seeing, hearing and feeling what
an actual driver driver experiences while barreling down a straightway skimming the top of the water. When they enter the simulator, Wright said, the lid is lowered and, courtesy of two speakers inside, the virtual drivers get an earful of what is sounds like to pilot a hydro. He said there’s plenty of vibrations that accompany the sounds. Near the end of the virtual race, Wright said the crew gives the two drivers a command: ”Crash the boat! Remember that there are no brakes or clutch in a hydro. We then hit a button and give the people inside an instant replay. They always come out laughing,” Wright said. Pignataro Volkswagen in Everett is the simulator’s sponsor. Wright added that the simulator appeared recently at the Edmonds Waterfront Festival and regularly makes the festival circuit in Western Washington. The simulator will appear at Marina Park from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday, June 27 and also on Sunday, June 28 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

IN OUR OPINION
Ferry commuters: voice your concerns
W
ashington State Ferries want drivers to leave their vehicles at home and instead walk aboard the ferries. To encourage the practice, WSF has employed for several years a pricing differential plan for fares paid by drivers and those by passengers and walk-ons. Since then, almost yearly fare increases approved by the Washington State Transportation Commission has widened the disparity in fares between passengers and walk-ons, and drivers. Between that practice and the need to fix state budget mistakes, the fares continue to rise precipitously. The state Legislature last month approved a transportation operations budget for 2015-17, but a projected shortfall in the ferry system budget has necessitated a need to implement a 2.5-percent fare increase that would take effect Oct. 1 for vehicles and a 1-percent jump for passengers and walk-ons. Fares also would increase by the same margin on May 1 next year. It’s unclear whether this experiment in behavioral engineering is working. What is crystal clear is that Kitsap commuters heading into Seattle without vehicles face a daunting challenge each day. That’s because their options are limited. Kitsap Transit’s coverage area in the Port Orchard area is sketchy. And one way or another, people need to get to work. A commuter File photo using the transit M/V Cathlamet option preferred by state transportation planners would likely face six or more bus transfers each day to a job site in downtown Seattle. That’s assuming the bus and ferry schedules allow for convenient passage. Otherwise, a carless commuter might spend five hours a day on a bus and ferry. Incompatible connections between county bus systems complicate the issue. It’s difficult to ascertain where the tipping point may be for weary travelers. Exactly when commuters would swap their vehicles for a bus route is hard to determine, but getting to work within a reasonable travel time on public transit — an option not now available — could help sooth their pain. The Washington State Transportation Commission will hold public hearings in communities served by WSF next month on the increased fares proposal. A meeting is set for Bremerton July 22. In addition, an online virtual meeting is scheduled for July 13. If you’re a commuter and have concerns, voice your opinions. Attend a hearing and make your opinions known.

SKSD school bond decision doesn’t add up The construction of a new high school is back on the table again in the South Kitsap School District. I find it very interesting that a committee was formed consisting of unelected and unpaid people in order to rule that the taxpayers of South Kitsap will pass three bonds to fund the district. The district has an architectural firm projecting bloated enrollment numbers that are unrealistic to give support to SKSD’s second highschool idea. Lee Fenton of BLRB Architects is presenting high-school construction models and promoting a second high school for SKSD. The district is pushing a second
360-876-4414 360-876-4458 360-779-4464
high school based on imaginary enrollment numbers that have held in constant decline of around 2 percent per year for close to two decades now. More important here are two architectural firms who have huge profits in mind due to design and construction supervision of all these new schools. The media constantly states that SKSD is the largest high school in the state at 1,545 students (2014); but that’s not likely. Additionally, SKSD continually states the high school is overcrowded at 1,545 student when the superintendent of Business Services stated that, as built, the current high-school capacity is 2,140 students. How do you resolve this shortfall
in numbers to justify building a second high school based on student count needs? You move all ninth graders up to the high school, as Michelle Reid wants to do and supported by the school board, in order to deliberately overcrowd the high school to force construction of a second high school. SKSD states Peninsula has two high schools for 1,000 less students than SKSD. Look at this: 1,000 less students than SKSD — that is 500 students, or 250 at each high school. That’s ridiculous. Also ridiculous: SKSD wants two high schools with 750 at each — just as ridiculous — for the low price of $100 million. LARRY MANN Port Orchard

LETTERS Approve state budget that serves the needy The deadline for avoiding a government shutdown on July 1 is fast approaching, yet the Washington Legislature still cannot agree on a budget. Food banks received notices this week notifying us that if there is no budget, we will not get the funds from the state that are critical for us to be able to help the hungry in our community. At the South Kitsap Helpline Food Bank, we serve residents in Port Orchard and our surrounding communities like Sunnyslope, Olalla, Burley, Harper, Manchester and South Colby.

We will have much less food available as a result and then we will have to severely limit the amount of food we can provide to people in crisis. The negative impact would go on and on. The legislature has an obligation to agree on a budget in a timely manner and one that shares our priorities for all Washingtonians. The House budget includes funding requests for food banks and other key anti-hunger programs while meeting basic education funding obligations, thanks to the inclusion of a modest capital-gains tax. Not passing a budget is not an option, and neither is passing one that doesn’t support our neighbors who are still struggling.

That would only be possible if the district passes a capital-facilities bond next year to construct a new high school on a 56-acre plot the district purchased in 2003 near the intersection of Old Clifton and Feigley roads.

There will be two significant changes for South Kitsap School District’s summer-lunch program. The program runs from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. during weekdays from June 16 to Aug. 14 at East Port Orchard, Orchard Heights and Sidney Glen elementary schools and at South Kitsap High School. That marks the most locations where the program has been offered. Ariane Shanley, SKSD director of food and nutritional services, said those sites were selected because they have the highest levels of students on free- and reduced-price lunch in the district, while SKHS qualified because it is the only high school in the district. She hopes 150 to 200 lunches will be served daily at each site. But that does not mean the lunch portion of the program is limited to low-income students. Shanley said anyone 18 years old or younger is eligible to receive lunch. The program is federally funded. Shanley said the district served 22,318 lunches last year. Through community partnerships, Shanley said sack lunches also will be provided at another other location this year. Each Wednesday, the Port Orchard Library will provide lunches from 11:30-11:45 a.m. at the Port Orchard Marina’s gazebo through Aug. 12. Amy Miller, SKSD’s director of community relations, said another component of the program — one that used instructors for subjects ranging from reading to
OC’s Board of Trustees, said a potential partnership is appealing because more students from SKSD attend the college than those from any other area. “We are making a concerted effort to reach out to all of the school districts,” he said. “But we know you guys have been a great feeder school district.” Olympic College President David Mitchell shared similar sentiments. “There really is a strong connection with South Kitsap,” he said. “Sometimes people see the [attendance] numbers and they are surprised.” According to Reid, 60 percent of high-school graduates in Washington “successfully enter post-secondary education,” which she said means being “career and college ready.” She said SKSD’s average was 46 percent upon her arrival and has increased to 51 percent. For the Class of
2020, Reid wants that number at 80 percent. She believes a partnership with OC would help move the district toward that goal. Reid also noted that there is a shortage of engineers — and many students who plan to major in that subject switch because of the challenges they encounter with classwork. She feels a partnership could remedy some of those issues because students would learn — and receive support — with their work at a younger age. While several OC board members expressed interest in the project, Mitchell said the “larger challenge” would be obtaining capital funding from the state to move forward. OC board member Alice Tawresey suggested that a joint committee comprising educators from both institutions investigate the possibility and report back to both boards in August or September.
robotics — has been eliminated. Michelle Reid, SKSD superintendent, said a “Grade 3 Summer Boost” program has been added in its place. There are two sessions for that program: July 6-31 or July 20-Aug. 14. Summer Boost is open to students who just completed third grade and scored a Level 1 on the Smarter Balanced English Language Arts Reading Assessment. The program, which runs from 9 a.m. to noon at EPO, includes lunch. There is no charge for Summer Boost. The Summer Lunch Program was implemented five years ago. Late deputy superintendent Kurt Wagner said at the time that elementary-school students often viewed summer school as a “punishment.” He said research from numerous studies did not portray a “flattering” picture of traditional summer-school programs for elementary students. Former superintendent Dave LaRose renamed it the Summer
price lunch receive Title I designation. At the time, Reid said finances were the impetus for a gradual pace. She said the all-day kindergarten program required the district to hire 7.5 teachers at a cost of $536,000 during the 201415 school year. Reid said she expected about half of that cost to be covered by the Learning Assistance Program, Title I funds and other state grants. But when she introduced the plan in March 2014, Reid said it was a necessary expense. She said the implementation of Common Core State Standards, which are part of a multi-state effort to develop common educational goals in addition to assessments that can be utilized to compare schools and students from around the country, has resulted in the continuous expansion of the kindergarten curriculum. Despite that, instructional time for kindergartners in SKSD remained at 2 hours, 40 minutes. Advocates say that children who enroll in all-day kindergarten programs perform better academically and socially. Cheney said all-day kindergarten has given students time for more “purposeful and meaningful play.” She said an example of that is students working together constructing a building out of blocks. “It’s not only working on ensuring our students have a strong foundation, but also that we’re nurturing those skills they need to collaborate with each other,” she said. “They use their thinking skills.” For more information, visit www. skitsap.wednet.edu or 360-8747000.

Hard work and a little help from volunteers fulfills Habitat for Humanity homeowner’s dream By BOB SMITH
rsmith@portorchardindependent.com
When Shena Tionquiao was a little girl in her native Philippines, she vividly remembers helping adults there build a Habitat for Humanity home from the ground up. Years later, the Port Orchard resident is standing next to an opening where a front window will be fitted in a home under construction. Just as it happened in The Philippines years ago, Tionquiao is Daryl Daug now helping a team of volunteers build a residential development, one house at a time. This time, however, Tionquiao is helping construct her own home at Harris Court in Port Orchard – one nail, board and window at a time. It’s all being accomplished with a passion and sense of love that’s unique to Habitat for Humanity. Daryl Daugs, Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap executive director, says the not-forprofit organization’s mission is to build simple, decent and affordable homes for people living in inadequate conditions. Habitat became nationally known through former President Jimmy Carter’s volunteer work helping build affordable housing. The organization is, in fact, the largest home building in the U.S., Daugs said. When this community at Harris Road and Darrell Lane is completed, it will feature 32 homes built by Habitat for Humanity of Kitsap County volunteers and the people who’ll live in them. The Harris Court development, conceived and designed in 2008, is working toward becoming a valuable addition to the community. Habitat found a 4-acre site on Harris Street — littered with derelict trailers and a magnet for crime. Local resident Tom Herstad designed simple but efficient homes for the neighborhood. Just as the project was ready to proceed, it was suddenly slowed by the collapse of the financial market that led to a global recession. But today, several years later, the project is in full swing. The homes are being built in stages. When a new homeowner is selected, work

on their house begins. The work and the materials aren’t substandard, Daugs said. Although homes in Harris Court are being built as simple, basic structures, not built on the cheap. Daugs says the homes will exhibit quality workmanship, an efficient layout with 3, 4 or 5 bedrooms, and energy efficient heating systems. The main floor of the homes are tiled, not carpeted, for durability. Tionquiao, who holds down two jobs at the Silverdale Goodwill and at Stafford Healthcare, is happy her place won’t begin to deteriorate only a few years after construction ends. But she’s excited for another reason — one that means so much more. She’ll have ownership of her own place. And it will provide a
place of pride for her three boys, ages 21, 14 and 7, and her sister. It also will represent security, permanence and accomplishment. It means being able to pay an affordable monthly mortgage. And there’s accomplishment in learning new skills along the way from talented community volun-
teers. For Tionguiao, it has meant conquering an old fear reprised by a tall ladder. “I was afraid of heights the first time I had to climb a tall ladder,” Tionquiao said. “I was nervous,” she said of being perched 20 feet off the ground while attaching siding to her new home. “Now, I’m not afraid. I consider that an accomplishment.” Tionquiao is among hundreds of volunteers who are adding their own sweat equity to the project. As a Habitat homeowner, she must contribute at least 400 hours to the project. And 150 of those hours must be devoted to working on houses other than her own. Daug said Tionquiao has burned through those hourly
requirements — and then some. He estimates she’s put in at least 1,000 hours at Harris Court. But, to be clear, Habitat for Humanity isn’t giving away homes to new owners just for their labor. There are other requirements to be considered as a Habitat homeowner: an applicant must have a documented need for new housing, be financially capable of making mortgage payments (they average between $620-$650 monthly), and have taken financial management classes. In return, these new homeowners get a zero-interest mortgage that’s based on onethird of the home’s value. The final sales price is calculated by determining the costs to
Page A7
build it, not by appraising its market value. “It’s a tremendous deal for them,” Daug said. Many of the volunteers say the experience they’ve gained at Harris Court has been valuable. Don Brunk, a painting contractor and a Habitat volunteer for three years, said his experience “has been rewarding from start to finish.” “If you have the ability to help out, you have to do something to help others,” Brunk said. And he added with a smile: “You also get to meet some wonderful people.” South Kitsap’s active-duty and retired military residents are a great source for Habitat’s volunteer pool. Daugs estimates about 70 percent of volunteers either are active-duty military or are retired. He said a contingent of Navy personnel from Bremerton regularly work Sundays at Harris Court. “Military folks have a mentality of needing to serve their community and nation,” he said. “They’re a wonderful corps of people.” Volunteers also come from faraway places. Daugs said 20 college students from St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia spent part of the summer last year working at the project. Their spring-break work was part of the national Collegiate Challenge program. The Harris Court project is indeed an accomplishment for the local Habitat organization. Daug said homes in the rising development will feature solar electric power and radiant heating, all designed by the organization. When completed, it will be the largest neighborhood in the state in which every home is equipped with solar panels. “Solar isn’t for rich people any more,” Daugs said. “Its
long-term efficiencies can’t be beat.” The solar system will be efficient in summer and will generate surplus power, he said, which then is sold back to the utility company. It also affords home buyers a 30-percent credit on their federal income taxes. Daugs said the solar system uses components manufactured in this state and include microinverters manufactured by Poulsbo’s Blue Frog Solar. Sunergy, a West Seattle solar manufacturer and installer, approached Habitat with a proposal to partner on the Harris Court project. The company is supplying the
Volunteer Don Brunk system and has instructed Habitat volunteers how to install it. When Tionquiao’s home is completed, it will be turnkey: ready for occupancy and complete with Whirlpool appliances. The home will be easy to maintain and care for, Daugs said. That’s good news for the new homeowner. And Tionquiao’s ready to tackle any problem that might come her way — even if it calls for a tall ladder. For information about Habitat for Humanity, call 360479-3853.

Kitsap County BOND Prosecutor’s CONTINUED FROM A1 Office
W
hen people hear “Prosecutor’s Office” the words that inevitably come to mind are “crime,” “defendants,” “punishment,” and “jail.” While these are all on point, the role of a prosecutor’s office also includes empathy and compassion. These are two core values the Kitsap County Prosecutor’s Office strives to embody as we assist victims of domestic violence through the court process. How does an office historically based on cold, hard justice manage to maintain such idyllic values? Like most, if not all, other prosecutors’ offices throughout the country, we work to achieve those values through partnerships, education and awareness. Our prosecutors and staff work very closely with the domestic violence advocates at the YWCA of Kitsap County. Through our long developed relationships and partnerships with the YWCA and other community based organizations, we are able to enhance our understanding of the dynamics of domestic violence cases. By enhancing our understanding, we are more equipped to achieve the goal of interrupting the cycle of domestic violence and prevent future incidents. To do this, we work to empower victims by guiding them through the intricacies of the judicial system and link them with necessary resources from community based organizations. Partnering with qualified advocacy agencies such as the YWCA gives us confidence that victims will receive the long-term support they need to live safe, healthy and productive lives. Partnerships on a statewide level are important as well. We support the efforts of the Washington State Coalition Against Domestic Violence and urge you to register today for the Goodwill Refuse to Abuse® 5K at Safeco Field at refusetoabuse5k.org.

It was used to help construct three elementary schools — East Port Orchard, Hidden Creek and Sidney Glen — in the early 1990s. Henderson expressed some concern about the district’s previous struggles to pass a capital-facilities bond. With that in mind, school board president Chris Lemke recommended that SKSD retain an outside consulting firm that specializes in helping pass bond measures. Lemke said he has met with some firms in the past at National School Boards Association gatherings that have helped school districts with unsuccessful electoral track records -- including those in the Northwest -- pass capital-facilities bonds with 85- to

within SKSD to address enrollment growth; demonstrating fiscal responsibility and “ongoing stewardship” in the community; modeling around a goal to keep tax rates level; maximizing state funding for construction; and minimizing portables with an eye toward eliminating them. Through those objectives — and the plan for SKSD to begin moving from a junior high to middle-school education model as soon as the 2016-17 school year — Fenton said the group reached a “consensus” to construct a 1,500-student high school.

During the June 16 school board meeting, construction of a new high school was cited as the top priority for SKSD’s “long-range capital facilities committee.” Lee Fenton of BLRB Architects, who is a volunteer, presented a model “with a goal to consider all district facilities within a 30-year timeframe.” Through 18 members of the school district and community on the committee, Fenton said they developed a series of goals to determine priorities for SKSD. Those included reflecting on facilities upgrades and proposed levies during the last 30 years; developing a model to address all district facilities during the next 30 years; incorporating grade realignment in the model; achieving a “right-size school” for students; locating schools in appropriate areas

90-percent success rates on their first attempt. Lemke’s colleagues seemed receptive to the suggestion. “I think that’s an excellent idea,” Wall said. “Asking our staff to do it is maybe more than they have time for.” Reid told the school board that she was not looking at “setting a dollar amount or a tax rate,” but she and Tom O’Brien, SKSD director of facilities and operations, needed direction because the school board does not meet again until July 15. “Tom and I need to get busy real quick to give you a series of legitimate proposals to look at,” Reid said.

Meanwhile, Quinlin is seeking approximately $10,000 to sponsor a hydro at Seafair and the Tri-Cities race later this summer.

Jerry Hopp Racing is bringing a hydroplane simulator to Fathoms O’ Fund during the Grand Parade weekend June 27 and 28. The modified Buccaneer racing hydro has been outfitted to present a racing ”experience” for riders in the driver’s seat. The simulator will be stationed during the weekend at Waterfront Park.

Both the second and third levies would be set at $88.5 million. The second levy would construct a new middle school to replace Cedar Heights, a new elementary school — Fenton noted that Olalla, Orchard Heights and South Colby are candidates for replacement — and a modernization of South Kitsap High School. The third levy would replace two more elementary schools and modernize other grade and middle schools.

City Council approves solid-waste contract Public Works also seeking grant money By BOB SMITH
rsmith@portorchardindependent.com
PORT ORCHARD — The Port Orchard City Council approved a revised franchise agreement June 23 with solid-waste service provider Waste Management of Washington. The agreement was agreed to unanimously during the council’s scheduled Tuesday night meeting at City Hall. The council delayed approval at its June 9 meeting because of an unresolved issue between the city and Waste Management over terms of a proposed agreement. Waste Management initially asked that any annexed property by Port Orchard would receive services for 10 years following annexation in place of the usual 7-year service agreement stated in the contract. After additional negoti-
ations between both sides, an agreement was struck in which contract terms stipulated a 5-year franchise agreement, with two extensions. The first extension is for three years, the second for two years. Waste Management collects garbage, recyclable material and yard debris from homes and businesses in the Port Orchard area. In other actions, the council agreed to allow the city’s Public Works department to pursue a $1.6-million grant managed by the state Emergency Management Division that would provide funding for seawall repair associated with the Marina Pump Station.

approved by the council. The plan approval allows the city to begin developing a project list to be adopted as part of the impact fee ordinance under consideration by the council. City council members are considering adoption of a plan to collect impact fees from developments that would impact Port Orchard’s transportation network.
According to the city transportation funding plan, impact fees are necessary to ensure ”adequate facilities are available to serve new growth and development” and to ”promote orderly growth and development by establishing standards by which cities may require…that new growth and development pay a proportionate share of the cost” of new facilities needed to serve new growth and development. The city’s plan also reports that impact fees are to be imposed based on established
procedures and criteria so that developments don’t pay arbitrary or duplicate fees. The City Council will hold a special public meeting June 30 at City Hall, 216 Prospect St., to discuss transportation projects and impact fees. According to the city clerk’s written notice, the meeting will focus on transportation projects that could be funded by traffic impact fees and how those fees would be determined. The meeting will be held in council chambers at 6 p.m.

Boaters will be reminded that anyone born after Jan. 1, 1955, who operates a vessel with 15 horsepower or more must possess a Boater Education Card. The card can be obtained through the Internet at www.parks. wa.gov or at in-person classrooms. The effort is part of a
nationwide campaign to curb boating under the influence awareness and enforcement, according to Sgt. Trey Holden of the Port Orchard Police Department. He says the best way to do that is to help change the cultural acceptance of combining drinking and boating. Vessels that pass with flying colors will receive the 2015 Vessel Inspection sticker. Holden noted that the city already has registered a ”BUI Vessel Collision With Injuries” incident this year. ”We are hoping it will be the last,” he said. According to a media release from Port Orchard Police, alcohol use is the leading contributing factor in recreational boater deaths. The nationwide campaign by the Port Orchard Police, U.S. Coast Guard and other law-enforcement agencies is focusing on spreading awareness of the dangers of boating while under the influence of alcohol. In Port Orchard, the Bremerton Sail and Power Squadron will be teaching one-day courses on July 11-12 at Fire Station 31, 200 Tremont St.

John Malcomson, 61, passed away unexpectedly Wednesday, May 6th at his home in Nordland, WA. Born to the late Charles and Edith Malcomson in 1954 John graduated from Ingraham High School. After living in Northgate for years, John moved to Marrowstone Island in 1994. Working at the Nordland General Store, John quickly became the heartbeat of the community that he loved. Throughout Nordland, Port Townsend, and beyond, John’s laughter and light will be missed every day. John is survived by his sisters Kathy and Carrol, his brother Chuck, his brother-in-law Bill, and many loving nieces and nephews. In lieu of flowers, we all know that John would appreciate donations to the Port Townsend food bank. The song may have ended, but the melody lingers on. TRIBUTE Paid Notice

South did not learn it joined those ranks until the final event of the state meet when it finished sixth in the 1,600-meter relay in 3 minutes, 23.53 seconds. The relay — along with a little help from Eastmont — pushed the Wolves into first place in Class 4A with 50 points. Wenatchee finished second with 47.5 points. “It has been pretty surreal,” Zimmer said. “It has been an amazing ride.” South accomplished that behind its throwers, who earned the maximum 30 points in those events. Cole Sunkel took the javelin title at 193 feet, 1 inch, while Nolan Van Amen won both the discus (165-0) and shot put (5709 1/4) titles.
For those reasons, Zimmer was quick to credit co-coach LaRae Rodriguez, who officially is the girls coach but works with both teams, and their slew of assistants. After all, Zimmer broke into coaching as a volunteer assistant with the Wolves’ cross-country program in 1999 under Ed Santos. He considered Santos, who guided South’s girls cross-country team to a state title in 1997, a mentor. “In my book, Ed was one of the best coaches to come through here,” said Zimmer, adding that Santos helped him learn “the pieces” to succeed as a coach. Zimmer then was involved with the cross country and track programs for most of
the next decade. In 2012, he moved into his role as co-coach of track and field with Kathy Ballew as they succeeded Joanne Warren, who resigned to move into an administrative position. Ballew retired after the 2014 season and was replaced by Rodriguez. It was a role Zimmer never envisioned as an adolescent. The Manitoba native, who was among six boys in his family, grew up with an ice rink in his backyard. A forward-center, he played part of a provincial championship game, which his team won, with two of his siblings on the same line. There was some trepidation SEE COACH, A19

when Zimmer was discovered by the coaching staff at North Dakota’s Valley City State University to run cross country and track. After all, he only ran in high school to stay in shape for hockey. “For a Canadian kid, that was a hard decision,” he said with a laugh. While Zimmer did not visit the Northwest until he vacationed here during spring break in the 1990s — he was called for an interview at South while honeymooning along the Oregon Coast — Logue grew up about an hour away in Port Townsend. He came to South in 2008 as a student teacher and returned four years later when he was hired as a government/politics teacher. Logue inherited a much different situation than
Zimmer. The Wolves won three state baseball championships during Elton Goodwin’s tenure — 1983, 1996 and 2003. But South had only advanced past the opening round of state once between 2004-12. Logue took South to the state championship game in each of his first two years. This marked the first time that the Wolves have advanced to the semifinals during three consecutive seasons. It might have been the most improbable run in Logue’s tenure. South started the season with a 2-5 record and often had three freshmen in its starting lineup and the absence of the three hitters in the middle of the order from 2014, all of whom had graduated. “Everybody talks about this team exceeding what was expected of them,” Logue said. “I knew what they’re capable of.” And he seemed to get the

Third-year South Kitsap baseball coach Marcus Logue guided the Wolves to their first state championship since 2003. most out of them. To win the championship, the Wolves had to get past three teams — Decatur, Gig Harbor and Newport — that all beat South at least once
during the regular season. The Wolves, who finished with a 20-7 record, needed eight innings to outlast Newport in the title game. Austin Hackman pro-
duced the go-ahead RBI in the eighth inning and Mac McCarty followed with a two-RBI single. “Talk about just resilient kids,” Logue said. “I told
them out there that they got this because they’re the most humble team of high-schoolers in the state. It’s an absolute result of the focus, effort and determination they’ve had since they were little.” While South’s athletes produced the highlights to secure the championships, several said they could not have done it without their coaches. “He did a really great job to inspire kids,” McCarty said of Logue. “He’s a great man overall. He’s someone I look up to.” Mason Villarma, who signed to run cross country and track next season at Gonzaga University, shared similar sentiments about Zimmer. “Coach Zimmer has been my teacher, my coach, my best friend,” he said. “He’s always been there since day one. I love the guy and I don’t know what I’m going to do without him next year.”

hen most people hear the term “water trails,” they might think kayaks, canoes and paddle boards. But the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails, and its designation as part of the National Water Trails system, means much more. According to local officials and business owners, having that designation and being part of the Washington Water Trails Association means tourism dollars and a boost to the local economy. Patricia Graf-Hoke, executive director of Visit Kitsap Peninsula, the region’s official tourism development agency, said it means national and international attention and the opportunity to attract more outdoor recreation visitors. In May 2014, U.S. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell approved Kitsap County’s application to have the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails added to the National Water Trails System. Since then, the Water Trails has been featured in national press release announcements, National Park publications and mostly in local, regional newspapers. In the past few months, media exposure has included a feature article in the May edition of Alaska-Horizon Airlines’ inflight magazine, Beyond, with a readership of 600,000; and in the June issue of Scuba-H2O, an international magazine

focus of the Water Trails tends to be on paddling, it includes other water-related activities including sailing, stand-up paddle boards, Tribal canoes, outriggers, boating and fishing.” Kitsap already is a popular destination for cycling, mountain biking and marathons, Graf-Hoke said. The national designation of Kitsap’s Water Trails provides another opportunity to build on the brand, the Natural Side of Puget Sound, that Visit Kitsap Peninsula has been promoting since 2009.

Economy
Continued from page 2 for Parks & Outdoor Recreation. The task force was charged with looking at the economic impact of outdoor recreation and short- and long-term funding strategies. To help identify the economic benefits of outdoor recreation, waterways and parks, Washington State hired Earth Economics to conduct a study and prepare a report, which was released in February. Key findings in the report showed that recreation associated with “public waters” generates the highest tourism-related revenue — $21.6 billion is spent every year in Washington state on outdoor recreation. Washington residents average 27 visits per year to local parks, making local parks the most visited land type for outdoor recreation. The Earth Economic report ranked Kitsap fourth in the state in
employment, with 6,700 jobs attributed to outdoor recreation, and sixth with $700 million in sales and expenditures related to outdoor recreation activities and visitors. The Visit Kitsap Peninsula board decided in 2009 to make Kitsap’s natural environment and outdoor recreation assets a primary focus of its branding, marketing and tourism strategy. Since it didn’t have the advantage of mega hotels, sport complexes or large conference centers, the board decide instead to take advantage of the region’s close proximity to Seattle/ Tacoma and the Eastside (Bellevue) metro area and target urban employees and dwellers. “The Earth Economic’s study and the national water designation definitely validates the VKP’s decision to target outdoor recreation visitors,” said Graf-Hoke. “It’s a logical way to help diversity in the economy and help hoteliers increase sales among lei-

sure travelers which have more disposable income and can pay higher room rates versus government travelers which are
capped at a lower per-diem rate.”
It’s a strategy that appears to be reaping positive results for local government and hotels, she said. According to recent Smith Travel Reports, lodging revenues for Kitsap County are up more than 15 percent over the last year and in some cases up 23 percent month to month. Sales in Kitsap County are up nearly $900,000 in the first six month. Additionally, the water trails is being enjoyed by
more than boaters. It’s spawned improvements to docks and marinas along its route that are also used by day hikers and those who fish. It has also increased the number of folks who enjoy other water sports such as scuba diving and underwater photography. Among those who are seeing a greater interest in Kitsap County waterways, partly due to the water trails, is Kathy Garcia, manager of the Bremerton Marina. “At both Bremerton and Port Orchard (marinas), we’re seeing a lot of interest in the water trails,” said Garcia. “People have been coming in more frequently and asking about kayak storage. More and more people are trying to get to the water via trails.” Garcia said the marinas are no longer just a place to put motorboats in the water. See ECONOMY, Page 4

Polynesian outrigger canoe club will be in festival BY LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com
T
hey’re on the water at least three times a week from March to October. Some are natives of Hawaii. Some are folks who have traveled to Hawaii and love the culture. Others just like to paddle. They are the Hui Heihei Wa’aa Polynesian outrigger club of Kitsap County, and they are more than 60 members strong. The club will be at the Water Trails Festival on June 27, at Silverdale Waterfront Park. They plan to share information about the sport, show techniques on dry land

and, if possible, take some folks out to paddle. “We want to spread the word about the culture
and tradition behind this sport,� member Debee Straub said. “We want to share our love of pad-
dling.� According to paddling experts, the outrigger canoe is a type of canoe
featuring one or more lateral support floats known as outriggers, which are fastened to
one or both sides of the main hull. Smaller canoes
allows kayakers to tie up their kayaks, was influenced by the water trails. Harper Pier also serves as a recreational facility for fishing and diving. “With the re-opening of Harper Pier, the connection to the water trails is great,� Garcia said. “People can tie up their boats and take a walk along the beach.� It’s a place where divers can go underwater and where local fishing is known to be good, she
added. And there are restrooms nearby, which makes it a convenient stop. Jerry Rowland, manager at the Port of Brownsville, is a fan of the water trails, too. “I think it’s going to bring more people to Kitsap County,� he said. “Instead of this being the place they travel through to get to somewhere else, they’re stopping and enjoying the view of our countryside from the water.�
While the Brownsville dock is small and doesn’t have a lot of amenities, he said he’s seeing more people use it as a place to launch their kayaks or stop off for a rest while kayaking. “I’m excited about it,� he said. “It’s great that it is happening.� Another small town that has been helped by the water trails is Tracyton. Last summer, the Port of Tracyton did work to its dock and added a rest area
for kayakers. There are picnicking areas nearby and a small grocery store and a pub. According to Port Commissioner Ted Hilliard, the port decided to make improvements because commissioners were excited to be on the water trails. “It puts us back on the map,� he said. Poulsbo is also expecting to see a benefit from the water trails. “It can’t be anything but
good if it helps promote the water and use of the water,� said Brad Miller, director of the Port of Poulsbo. Although the Port of Poulsbo is a destination port for motorized watercraft and sailboats, Miller hopes it will attract kayakers and those who paddle. “If those visitors shop and eat and stay in Poulsbo, that definitely will have a positive impact,� he said.

Get Ready - Here it Comes! Outrigger
Continued from page 4 often employ a single outrigger on the port side, while larger canoes may employ a single-outrigger, double-outrigger or double-hull configuration. The sailing canoes are an important part of the Polynesian heritage and are raced and sailed in Hawaii, Tahiti, Samoa and by the Maori of New Zealand. Unlike a single-hulled canoe, an outrigger or double-hull canoe generates stability as a result of the distance between its hulls rather than due to the shape of each individual hull. As such, the hulls of outrigger or double-hull canoes are typically longer, narrower and more hydro-dynamically efficient than those of single-hull canoes. Compared to other types of canoes, outrigger canoes can be quite fast, yet are also capable of being paddled and sailed in rougher water. This paddling technique, however, differs greatly from kayaking or rowing. The paddle, or blade, is single sided, with either a straight or a double-bend shaft. Despite the single paddle, an experienced person will only paddle on one side, using a technique such as a J-stroke to maintain heading and stability. The outrigger float is called the “ama” in many Polynesian and Micronesian languages. The spars connecting the ama to the main hull are called “aiako” in Hawaiian and kiato in Maori; in Micronesian languages, the term “aka” is used. The club was founded in 1997 by coach Rod Rodenhurst, who moved to Kitsap County from Hawaii. Members paddle on Mondays, Wednesday and Thursdays at Silverdale on Dyes Inlet, and again on Saturday mornings. There is a club for youth who want to learn the techniques, which meets on Saturdays after the adults practice. And throughout May, June and July, they compete in regattas. This July, they host the Whaling Days Dyes Inlet Dash July 26 as a way to share the sport with those who want
to come out and try outrigger canoe sprint team racing. Straub and her husband joined the group in 2008, when they moved back to Kitsap County after both served in the Navy. “I fell in love with it,” she said. “It’s something you can do all year round.” Straub decided to try it when she had the desire to constantly be on the water, but in winter it was too cold to swim. While she’s visited Hawaii once, and didn’t ever want to leave, her real passion is “being on the water.” She considers it a sport and is very competitive, but said many people see it as a recreational pursuit. “It’s definitely different from regular canoeing,” she said. “You have to use your whole body in order to have the right technique as you paddle.” She called it an art based on strength and rhythm. “You have to be in line with everyone else who is in your boat,” she said. As an experienced outrigger, Straub competes in regattas against teams from Seattle, Portland, Bellingham and those in the Tri-City area. She also competes in 500-meter sprints. In the winter months, she canoes in long-distance runs. While traditional outrigger paddlers sometimes wear ceremonial dress, club members wear shorts and tank tops with the team logo. In colder months, they wear heavier clothing. When the season begins, the club has a “Blessing of the Canoes,” usually performed in native Hawaiian language. And when someone close to the club passes, club members celebrate the passing on the water where they all raise their paddles toward Heaven. “Part of our work is to share the culture and bring awareness to the native ways of the Hawaiian population,” she said. “Some of it is ceremonial and some of it is just fun.” To contact the club, write to Hui Heihei Wa’a, PO Box 2852, Silverdale, WA 98383, or email info@ hhwsilverdale.org.

There’s more underwater than you think BY LESLIE KELLY lkelly@soundpublishing.com
T
here’s no doubt in Jim Gunderson’s mind that the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails and its national status is bringing new divers to the area. “It’s bringing more attention to what is under water in Kitsap County,” said Gunderson. “It’s an absolute treasure and most people don’t know that.” Gunderson owns and operates Hula Kai Adventures, a Kingstonbased scuba diving business which he opened in October 2014. Admittedly, most people don’t think about the Pacific Northwest when planning a scuba diving trip, Gunderson said. They typically think Hawaii, or the Caribbean or Belize.
According to Gunderson, our waters are home to the plumose anemone; a variety of nudibranchs, each of which is absolutely beautiful; seals and ling cod; Dungeness and rock crabs; the pink Pacific sea star and the sun star, the largest sea stars in the world; and the giant Pacific octopus, the largest known octopus in the world. “All of these are here in the waters of Kitsap County, not to mention a number of ship wrecks,” he added. At the Water Trails Festival on June 27, Gunderson plans to go underwater at Silverdale with a camera and a mask with a communication device so that he can describe what he’s seeing. There will be a monitor on shore where people can

view what he’s doing. “We’ll start near the surface and look at two different species of mussels,” he said. “As we go deeper, we’ll see clams and feather duster worms and Christmas tree worms. They’re not really worms
at all. The feather duster looks just like the feather duster your grandma used.” Additionally, folks will be able to view hermit and Dungeness crabs and juvenile perch. What he also plans to show those on shore is the trash that’s left at the bottom of Dyes Inlet.
“It will be a teaching moment — the sober side of things,” Gunderson said. “Just because you throw a can or a cup overboard, that doesn’t mean it’s gone forever.” In his years diving, he’s brought up many bags of trash, including golf balls. “Hundreds of them,” he said. “There’s countless things down there that no diver wants to see. We have a beautiful treasure and we need to keep it pristine.” On June 28, he or divers with Sound Dive of Bremerton will be at the Port of Brownsville to repeat the underwater camera dive. The U.S. Coast Guard is helping with the camera dive. Great dive sites throughout Kitsap County include Rockaway Beach and Blakely Harbor on Bainbridge Island, Seabeck, Harpers Pier in Port Orchard, and many
“Just because you throw a can or a cup overboard, that doesn’t mean it’s gone forever.” — Jim Gunderson others, he said. With the notoriety of the Water Trails, word is getting out about what great dives can happen here, Gunderson said. “There’s an uptick in interest of what is here,” he said. “I’ve been out talking to groups like the Rotary and Kiwanis to educate them about the incredible life that is under water around here.” For most who scuba dive, watching the interaction of sea life with its environment is what takes them underwater. “Just sitting and watching what’s there can be fascinating,” he said.

‘Cap’n Safety’ had roles in two films, TV program BY LESLIE KELLY AND TERRY ASLA For Kitsap Week
I
f you’ve ever watched “Master and Commander,” “Pirates of the Caribbean” or “Once Upon a Time,” you’ll think the man in charge of safety for the Kitsap Water Trails Festival Paddles looks familiar. His name is Captain John Morrison — “JB” to his friends — and he is the safety captain for the Brownsville Brownie Challenge Paddle on June 27 and the Keys to Keyport Fun Paddle and Raffle on June 28. The two events are part of the Kitsap Water Trails Festival that will take place at the ports of Brownsville, Keyport and Silverdale. Affable and outgoing, Morrison makes light of his movie-making experiences and how he wound up in front of the cameras. “I was cast as a background actor in ‘Master and Commander’ and wound up taking on extra duties I was qualified for because of my nautical and safety background,” said Morrison, who once captained for Vessel Assist Tacoma. Morrison, a professional sailor with a 100-ton masters ticket (license), takes safety on the water very
Diving
Continued from page 10 Another off-shoot of diving is underwater photography and videography. “It’s considered a specialty of diving,” he said. “You can take incredible photos of the life under water. In fact, there are some phenomenal underwater photographers from this area who have been published in national magazines.” Recently, the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails was featured in Scuba H2O magazine, which told divers about what they can find under the water in Kitsap.

seriously. “While personal safety is each paddler’s responsibility, we will have safety boats laid on for the two paddles,” he said, “including a ‘Tail End Charlie’ that can give anyone who gets tired or cold a tow or ride.” Captain Morrison has more than a decade of experience restoring tall ships and is presently in charge of rebuilding the tall ship Fiddler’s Dream at the Port of Brownsville.
Tours of the schooner and a kids’ toy wooden boat build will be offered from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. June 28. A native of eastern Washington who ran away to sea for a life of adventure, his advice to beginning boaters is “Be prepared. Take a class, file a float plan and have the right equipment and clothing.” Morrison grew up in a family that moved around
dives to his credit and has a degree in marine science. He was a research diver for the University of Hawaii for three years before moving to Kitsap County. He came here because of the diving. “Good diving brought me here,” Gunderson said. “It’s world class.” His company offers classes for beginners to experienced divers. Go to www.hulakaiscuba.com or call 360-297-3483. Sound Dive, 5000 Burwell St., Bremerton, is another resource for those who want to know about scuba diving in and around Kitsap. Owners Geoff and Besty Pentz offer a full-service,
6,000-square-foot dive center that provides services, classes, equipment and activities. They’ve been in business for 41 years. Go to www.sounddivecenter. com, or call 360-373-6141. Other favorite dive spots of local scuba divers include Manchester, Harper Pier, Illahee Dock, Fort Ward, Port Washington and Hood Canal. Bainbridge has scuba diving at Point White Pier, where the historic former Mosquito Fleet was once docked. Kitsap Memorial State Park near Poulsbo also is a beautiful setting for scuba diving.

Some must-sees at the Water Trails Festival BY TERRY ASLA For Kitsap Week
Northwest BeechBoys will fly June 27 A group of private pilots based at Bremerton Airport who have taken precision flying to a higher level will perform at the Water Trails Festival on June 27. Based on military formation flying techniques and procedures, they have formed a team that performs for festivals and other events in the Northwest. They have been flying about a decade. They fly Beechcraft Bonanza aircraft, which is how they came up with the nickname “BeechBoys.” “I started the concept when I lived in California,” said Jim Posner, flight lead. “There is a counterpart group that still performs similar forma-

Through a series of adventures and “pure luck,” he was able to train to sail tall ships. “I did a very intensive two-week program on the Lady Washington,” he said. “And because of that, I was able to get work sailing with a number of tall ships. I loved it and I knew I wanted to stick with it and stay on the water.” He has sea time aboard a dozen vessels including the HMS Surprise, Lady Washington, Hawaiian Chieftain, HMS Bounty — a square top-sail ketch — Argus, a schooner and Mary Day, with Vessel
tion demonstration flights there. When I moved up to Washington State, I started a group here and distinguished it from my formation flying friends in California by adding ‘Northwest’ to our name.” Form flying requires discipline, practice and an attitude that safety is the primary goal, Posner said. “We’ve never had an accident,” he said. While the group’s flight configurations are similar to those of military formation flying demonstration teams such as the Thunderbirds and Blue Angels, they don’t fly nearly as close. “Plus, we don’t have the engine power they do to maintain that kind of minute spacing,” Posner said. “Nevertheless, we do fly with about a three-foot separation — a safe margin but still requiring concentration and practice.” Their flight June 27 will consist of three passes
overhead in different configurations to show how flexible this type of flying can be. “We hope that you enjoy our show,” he said.
Assist Tacoma. That experience led him to be asked to work on the sets of television shows and movies that included tall ships. “Working as crew for TV and movies was an experience,” he said. “But I would rather have been on the water for real.” As Morrison explained, much of the filming was done in studio with prop ships that were actually on barges. It was take after take of the same thing over and over. “I kept thinking, ‘Let’s do this for real and get out to sea,’ ” he said. “But Hollywood, they like a controlled environment.” He did work with Johnny Depp on the first “Pirates of the Caribbean” movie and more recently, he worked with Macklemore in his music video “Can’t Hold Us.” “That was more of a real thing,” he said. “We were out on the water by Channel Islands near Ventura, California, and in Oakland Bay.” As for the future, he’s
not seeking out movies and TV anymore. He’s thrilled to be hired to rebuild the Fiddler’s Dream and be a part of bringing a tall ship to the Port of Brownsville. He loves living onboard a Canary 33 sailing suite at the port and being near family. His mother and sister live in Seattle and he has a brother in Pullman. Morrison thinks sailing got in his blood when he was young and lived near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, where he saw all kinds of boats on the water. “I watched boats all day long when I could,” he said. “I was just intrigued by sailboats, mostly because they weren’t loud or noisy and stinky. They were just beautiful and majestic.” For more event information, go to www.water trailsfestival.com.

Festival marks years of work to create water trails By LESLIE KELLY

ome Saturday, chances are you’ll be able to see Kitsap County Commissioners Ed Wolfe, Rob Gelder and possibly Charlotte Garrido on the water in kayaks. They say it’s the perfect way for them to celebrate the three to five years of work by the county and volunteers to ensure that the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails happened. In 2013, it was designated as part of the Cascadia Marine Trail by the Washington Water
Trails Association. And with it now being designated as a part of the National Water Trails System, a celebration is truly in order. The Water Trails Festival will be June 27 and 28, with activities on Saturday at the Silverdale Waterfront Park. But it’s at Evergreen Park in Bremerton, where about 100 kayakers will put their boats in the water, along with Wolfe and Gelder. Wolfe and Gelder are experienced kayakers and Garrido has kayaked in the past.
“I’m just hoping the tide will be with us,” said Wolfe, who was elected to the commission last year. “The trip is about five miles and if all goes well, it will only take us a couple of hours.” Wolfe said he and his wife like to put their kayaks in the water in Dyes Inlet just about anytime that the weather is good. “I can leave work and go home and be on the water in about 20 minutes,” he said. “That’s one of the reasons I love living here.” Gelder, in the past, was a serious kayaker who paddled and camped for week-

Bainbridge Island, to the Tacoma Narrows Bridge and the waters of Hood Canal. There are 13 separate trails designed as a continuous tail experience, to make up the entire trail. Kayakers can map out where they want to travel, based on their time and experience. At stops along the way, there are amenities such as connections to parks and trails for hiking, restrooms, places to picnic and rest, campgrounds and nearby stores and restaurants. Visit Kitsap Peninsula actually developed the Water Trails map which
started the process of applying for national trails status, said Patty GrafHoke, executive director of Visit Kitsap Peninsula. According to Eric Baker, policy manager for the Kitsap County commissioners, the county’s role in the creation of the Water Trails has been to work with the various jurisdictions along the trail to make sure that everything came together in an orderly fashion. “In general, there is a robust outdoor recreation community in Kitsap County,” Baker said. “The SEE FESTIVAL, PAGE 3

He is more a day kayaker now. “I didn’t have room in my garage for the 17-foot kayak, so I sold it,” he said. “Now, when I go out, I just rent a kayak.” For this trip from Bremerton to Silverdale, Gelder is looking forward to a “nice leisurely paddle.” “It’s on an incoming tide,” he said. “It will be great to have nature help us paddle.” The Peninsula Water Trails includes more than 371 miles of shoreline from North Kitsap County to

Expertly crafted, custom-built rowing and sailing boats from 8-17’ Gig Harbor Boat Works is the builder of a unique line of custom small boats for rowing and sailing. Our boats are modern reproductions of small boats used during the last century of working sail when people earned their living using only wind and oar. As custom boat builders, the experience of buying a boat from us is different than you’ll find in a big-box store, or even most online retailers. Ordering a boat from us is a personal experience. For most of us, buying a boat is a major decision, so it’s very important to us that you get the boat that will make you happy. Along the way, you will have the benefit of our decades of experience in construction and design, as well as our first-hand knowledge of recreational boating. And in the end, you’ll end up with a boat that is the best fit for the way you are going to use it.

commissioners have been working very hard to see that the Waters Trails happen for the recreational opportunities it brings, and for the economic ecotourism that comes along with it.” In dollars, the county has spent about $50,000 in improving amenities along the trail, plus staff time. And there has been more than 10,000 volunteer hours put toward the project in the past three to five years. Leading the pack of volunteers is John Kuntz, owner of Olympic Outdoors Center in Port Gamble. Wolfe said he was the power behind the formation of the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails. Kuntz has been paddling in Kitsap County since 1996 and in 2008 he joined the North Kitsap Trails Association to work on trails on land and water. “John has been passionate and persistent about the Water Trails,” said Wolfe. “He has so much to do with everything that has happened.” Kuntz said
KITSAP PENINSULA WATER TRAILS FESTIVAL
the water trails is a dream come true for him. “It is something that I never imagined would happen but believed it could,” he said. “To take an idea I had almost 20 years ago and have invested thousands of hours of my time and many others and transform it into a reality is very gratifying and humbling. “The thing that occurs to me most is how passionate and sincere this movement has become. It is truly everyone’s trail that touches so many lives and improves our quality of life through recreation, eco-tourism, environment, education, and more.” Kuntz estimates that paddling-related activities bring $1.7 million annually to the Kitsap County economy. Wolfe thinks that’s just one of the great things about the water trails getting so much attention. “Kitsap used to be known as the ‘Gateway to the Olympics,’ ” said Wolfe. “That’s true. But now we are a destination in and of ourselves.” People come here and stay here for recreation, he said. That means they spend their dollars at local hotels and restaurants, too. But, he said, it’s a quality
of life issue, too. “For people who live here, it’s a big deal,” he said. “They crave outdoor experiences. And it gives people a reason to stay here for their entertainment.” He added that “natural pursuits” have brought companies like REI, Inc. to the area. A grant by REI was used to create the signage all along the water trails, he added. While great strides have been made with the Water Trails creation, the work isn’t finished. The Water Trails Alliance, a group of about 60 members, will oversee any future growth. Baker said the alliance will communicate with shoreline owners and recreators along the route in addressing issues that may face the water trails. Such things as keeping trail and rest stop standards equal and adding points to the trail are among things they will oversee. All jurisdictions that have shoreline along the water trails are represented in the group, including the county, several port district, four Kitsap County cities, Gig Harbor, the community of Union, Visit Kitsap, Mason County, and Kuntz.

Continued from page 12 can summon emergency help. By establishing the National Kitsap Peninsula Water Trails, Kitsap is inviting people to come and paddle our beautiful waterways. But bad weather and dangerous water conditions are always a possibility. While it is ultimately up to the individual to paddle responsibly, the Water Trails Festival Committee sees the festival as an opportunity help people learn to paddle safer. So, Olympic Outdoor Center will be offering paddling and equipment instruction in Silverdale on June 27 and Bremerton West Marine will participate in a paddling basics class on June 28 at Brownsville. Additionally, safety boats will accompany the two free paddles originating from Brownsville — the Brownsville Brownie Challenge Paddle for
experienced paddlers on June 27, and the Keys to Keyport Fun Paddle and Raffle for beginners on June 28. SPOT will be going along on both paddles. It is the festival organizers’ hope that, when people see how well SPOT works — and how affordable it is — serious kayakers will purchase their own, and outfitters and ports along the Water Trails will make SPOT or similar products available for rent. To learn more and to see SPOT in action, visit the SPOT booth in Silverdale June 27 and in Brownsville on June 28. For a full schedule of events, go to www.water trailsfestival.com

As the “owner” of the moon, Cancer intensifies this full moon, which is in Capricorn, the sign that escorts Winter Solstice in. Considering that winter is one long opportunity to lose our lives in the dark and cold, you can imagine that Capricorn’s approach is 180 degrees different from Cancer. His concern is the welfare of the entire community. He wrestles with collective issues and getting the job done. Emotions are not needed for pragmatic endeavors. In the light of this moon, we consider our place between Cancer, the great mother, and Capricorn, the great father. Which end of the seesaw do you lean toward — duty or feelings, personal con-
cerns or community focus, what we feel or what they think? Where are you out of balance? Crafting a lifestyle that works for you is selfcare (Cancer) at its best.

Pisces (Feb. 19March 20), benevolent co-workers, bosses and underlings feel your vibe and get on board. Jazz up your personal routines for the best you. Do your creative work or just go play, for Pete’s sake. Focus on you and your feelings. Aries (March 21April 19), mother and father issues are mixed up between work and home. Your boss isn’t your mama. Your spouse isn’t your daddy. They have needs as do you. Untangle this with an older friend because acting it out will make you the child. (It feels personal because the confusion is in you.) Taurus (April 20-May 20), travel, even for work, may look like all fun, but the hanging out and chatting is activating tender desires about “home.” Imagine the life you want. Home is an asset. Try it! Gemini (May 21June 20), continue exploring options. The right situation feels right and brings financial and emotional security. Don’t let old family wounds keep you from seeing what the right hand is doing. Call, text, drop by old friends.
