The Port of Brem
erton will be dis-
cussing on
Tuesday an
agreement
reached nearly three years ago with the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard resident expressed concerns
about the nature of the pact.Steve Slaton, the port’s director of m
a-rine facilities, said that interest in the contract w
as sparked after a letter to
the editor written by M
ark Morgan w
as published.
“Based on m
y conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his w
alk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and w
anted to know about the fish-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining that w
hile there were tribal m
embers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason
for the barrier.“O
ne of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t w
ant anyone to
be harmed by w
alking on it,” he said.H
owever, Slaton said he also explained
to M
organ the
agreement
the port
reached with the Suquam
ish Tribe in D
ecember of 2005, w
hich he described as m
itigation for a planned expansion of the B
remerton m
arina.

The South Kitsap School D
istrict is a little closer to closing its $2.9 m
illion defi-cit for the upcom
ing school year.Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-tim
e custodians w
ho left the district after the last school year.
She said that will save the district
$250,000.Patton said the deficit stem
s from un-
foreseen circumstances w
hen the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004.
She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as
issues.In addition to the m
oney saved on cus-todians, Patton said the district w
ill dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 m
illion. She said that’s not all bad because the
district saved more than it anticipated in
its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also will save through
not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanimously adopted the
budget.Patton w
arned in previous meetings
that the “hard decisions” likely won’t end

Tensions between tw
o Port Orchard
neighbors that erupted after one attempt-
ed to open a home business last year led
both wom
en to head down to the K
itsap C
ounty Courthouse M
onday and file re-straining orders against each other.
Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a re-
straining order against Am
ber Keehn
after returning home from
a camping trip
Aug. 17 and discovering pellets had been
shot in three of her home’s w
indows.
Cronan, w
ho lives on the 200 block of Flow
er Meadow
s Street in Port Orchard,
said she believed the attack was part of an
ongoing dispute with K
eehn, whom
she alleges has been running a hair salon out of her hom
e without a business license
and in defiance of a city “stop-work”
order.K
eehn, 30, said she filed for permission
from the city of Port O
rchard to operate a hair salon out of her hom
e on the 2300 block of Flow
er Avenue soon after pur-
chasing it last spring.C

Director
James
Weaver confirm
ed that Keehn received
a conditional-use permit to operate a one-
chair hair salon out of her home, w
hich he described as “pretty innocuous” and som
ething that doesn’t typically reach “the level of intensive use,” as far as im
pacts on the neighborhood are con-cerned.
How
ever, since Novem

The stage has been set for the Port Orchard council at-large and West Sound Utility District commissioner’s race. Each race had three candidates and the top two finishers face each other in the Nov. 5 general election.
The Kitsap County Auditor’s Office Election Division reported more than 22,000 ballots were cast in the Aug. 6 primary.
According to unofficial results posted on the county website, incumbent Councilman Jerry Childs easily outdistanced his clos-est opponent — by receiving more than 58 percent of the votes. Childs got 969 votes compared to newcomer Eric Gonnason, who finished second with 434 or 26 percent of the

An investigation is under way by the Port Orchard Police Department into an apparent sui-cide by a 29-year-old male inmate in the Kitsap County Jail.
Deputy Scott Wilson, Kitsap County Sheriff ’s Office spokes-man, said the coroner’s office reported that Steven Tyler Ellis, 29, of Belfair was pronounced dead at 3:05 p.m., Saturday, Aug.
3, by attending staff at Harrison Medical Center in Bremerton.
Wilson reported Ellis was found around 6:50 p.m. in a shower in the inmate’s housing unit by sheriff ’s corrections offi-cers Aug. 2.
Police Chief Geoffrey Marti said Ellis apparently hung himself inside the jail facility.
According to charging papers, Ellis was charged with second-degree assault on July 30 in Kitsap
County District Court. He was arrested by Port Orchard police on July 29 and booked into jail on a charge of second-degree assault with bail set at $100,000.
He was being held in jail on a pre-trial status.
After Ellis was found, emer-gency first aid was administered to the inmate by jail medical per-sonnel and corrections officers until they were relieved by South Kitsap Fire and Rescue emergen-
cy personnel.Wilson said the inmate was
transported to Harrison Medical Center’s emergency room in Bremerton, where life-saving efforts continued.
Wilson said because the inci-dent occurred while the man was in the custody of the sheriff ’s office, the investigation is being conduced by an outside agency per standard operating proce-dure.

Firefighters get upper hand Tuesday on South Kitsap fire
By DANNIE OLIVEAUXEditor
A South Kitsap Fire and Rescue bat-talion chief said fire crews contained a a slow-burning fire Tuesday, between the end of Overaa Road SE and Colvos Passage.
Battalion Cheif Jon Gudmundsen said the fire, which was discovered about 7 p.m. Sunday, was an “under-ground fire” which burned between 2-3 acres of a heavily wooded area south of Sedgwick Road in South Kitsap.
“It’s slow moving and we got the upper hand,” said Gudmundsen, as crews had containment by Tuesday afternoon.”
The fire was about 1,000 feet from the end of Overaa Road SE and no homes were threatened.
Gudmundsen said the fire has been burning for a long time.
“The speculation is that the fire has been burning underground for more than a month, working its way around into the root systems,” he said.
He said the fire was complex because of the size and the topography of the terrain.
Local residents notified SKFR Sunday night after they smelled smoke in the area late last week, Gudmundsen said. Fire crews arrived at the scene and began cutting trails to reach the blaze.
“We spent about an hour trying to pinpoint the fire once we arrived in the area,” Gudmundsen said. “We spent several hours before we were able to get out about 2 a.m. early Monday morn-ing.”
He said the area contains a different type of vegetation compared to Eastern Washington.
“It’s really wet here,” said

Changes to ferry fares approved
Staff report
OLYMPIA — New, across-the-board ferry-fare increases will go into effect Oct. 1 as a result of action taken by Washington State Transportation Commission following a final hearing July 30.
The commission adopted the new fares to ensure the state meets the ferry-fare-revenue target set by the Legislature in the recently enacted 2013-2015 transpor-tation budget.
The commission’s action is based on recommenda-tions from Washington State Ferries, members of the cit-izen-based Ferry Advisory Committee on Tariffs, responses from public out-reach meetings and email comments. Detailed infor-mation is available at www.wstc.wa.gov.
Key elements of the pro-posal are implements across-the-board, general fare increases are:
• 2 percent increase on passenger fares and 3 percent increase on vehicle fares.
• 2 percent increase on passenger fares and 2.5 per-cent increase on vehicle fares on May 1, 2014.
• Completes implementa-tion of a three-phase plan that was started in 2011, provid-ing reduced fares for smaller vehicles. In this final phase, the vehicle fare for cars less than 14 feet will be charged 70 percent of the vehicle fare charged for standard vehicles (14 feet to less than 22 feet).
• Eliminates the motor-cycle oversize surcharge. Vehicles that currently pay the motorcycle oversize sur-charge will pay either the under-14-feet-vehicle fare or the motorcycle fare depend-ing on their size.
• Increases the youth dis-count from the current 20 percent off the full fare, to 50 percent off the full fare.
Based on comments heard during the public outreach process, the commission incorporated some changes to the initial proposal:
• Aligned the new 50 percent off “youth fare” with the 50 percent off “senior/disabled fare” – different rounding assumptions in the proposal had resulted in a slight variance in the initial proposal.
• Made a minor downward adjustment on the ferry char-ter rates to reflect updated cost information.

History was made in the Port Orchard Police Department last week when an officer became the first-ever female supervisor.
Police Chief Geoffrey Marti announced that Officer Donna Main was promoted to police sergeant. It was effective July 31.
“Donna has proven herself as a highly motivated, profes-sional police officer, with a focus of making the commu-nity she serves better,” Marti said. “I am confident that she will be an outstanding ser-geant for our police depart-ment and the city.”
Main, 47, was commis-sioned as a police officer in February 2010 under former police chief Alan Townsend.
“It’s real exciting to be in this position,” Main said. “I was very surprised.”
Main is one of two women in the police department. The other is a detective.
She said she is training three new officers who have joined the department.
“Now I’m still doing field training and trying to do a little bit of the sergeant’s job,” Main said. “I haven’t officially been doing any training as sergeant, but I have taken on those responsibilities.”
She said her new position will involve more desk time and paper work, and less patrolling.
“I won’t be patrolling as much, but I’ll still be out there,” said Main, who will finish her fourth year with the department in September.
She was 43 years old when
she attended the police acad-emy.
During her earlier years, Main said she knew she
wanted to do something with law or the medical field.
“I got out of college and landed a fairly good job that was stable and it worked for my family,” she said.
After college, Main was an account representative with ConAgra Foods for about 15 years.
“But I reached the top of my game and didn’t want to get promoted because I would had to move to Nebraska,” she said. “I didn’t want to move.”
Main said she hasn’t for-getten where she came from. Behind her desk sits a can of Chef Boyardee to reminder her.
“It gave me an opportunity to develop my life lessons,” she said. “It allowed me to raise my family and come here with all the ‘young stuff ’ out of the way.”
Main said she didn’t want to always be an account rep-resentative. That’s when she decided to become a police officer.
“I wanted to make a differ-ence,” she said.
In February, Main
was the recipient of the “Accommodation for Ongoing Community-Related Service” by American
Legion Post 30. She is a 1985 graduate of
South Kitsap High School and played four years of basket-ball at Western Washington University in Bellingham. She received her bachelor’s degree in exercise science and sports psychology, and was an assistant coach at WWU for one season.
As a mother of two teen-age boys, Main said her sons don’t see the police uniform — they just see “mom.”

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen at First Lutheran Community Church on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-ing difficulty finding people to take the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and good meals, but our attendance is down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-unteered with the kitchen since it opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low attendance to increased difficulty finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices went up, our people coming went down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family
Kitchen volunteer. “Also, they’ve cut down on bus routes, and that’s anoth-er way that they get there.”The Family Kitchen’s volunteers try to make every guest feel welcome by not pushing a particular belief sys-tem — even though most of them are Christian — said Sally Murphy, a volunteer. “The tables are set. No questions are asked. We just want to help,” said DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers still try to cook enough food for about 100 people — the number who used to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes from food and money donations as well as unpredictable free food from the federal government through com-modities.
“Commodities are a strange thing,” said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a certain dish and then you see that half the ingredients are missing,” said Bill Kepper, who has cooked dinner on the last Friday of each month for the kitchen for about three years.
The menu varies from meal to meal, but each dinner has a main course, a salad, a roll, a dessert and a beverage.“They like the spaghetti and meat sauce that I make,” said Kepper. “Another very popular dish is a salmon
loaf with fresh celery cream sauce.” Volunteers prepare the free dinners on the last two Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays of each month at 5 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in Port Orchard.

Family Kitchen aims to feed SK’s hungry — if it can find them

Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with the Ondracek for the past 16 years,
wrote: “she has worked at creating a loving home for her family, at the same time she has helped create a safe, dependable entertainment resource for the community.”Through the years, the Ondraceks operated two local theaters. They bought a drive-in theater near the Bremerton National Airport in 1986, and they also opened the Redwood Cinema in Bremerton in August 2002. The Redwood closed in 2005, but the drive-in still shows movies start-ing at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
According to the website, the drive-in has “three screens and a total car
capacity of over 850,” which makes it the “second largest outdoor theater complex and by far the largest and oldest family-owned drive-in in the Northwest.”
Drive-in theater owner gets probation, fine for tax evasionCindy Ondracek will pay $30,000 to settle the complaint

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.
“Even the state’s expert witness will testify that, had he been in the

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

The Port of Bremerton will be dis-cussing
on Tuesday
an agreement
reached nearly three years ago with the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port Orchard resident expressed concerns about the nature of the pact.
Steve Slaton, the port’s director of ma-rine facilities, said that interest in the contract was sparked after a letter to
the editor written by Mark M
organ was published.
“Based on my conversation with Mr.
Morgan, he had run into a barrier during
his walk on the (Port Orchard Marina’s
dock), and wanted to know about the fish-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining that while there were tribal members fish-ing nearby, the boats were not the reason for the barrier.
“One of the metal hinges on the public dock broke, and we didn’t want anyone to
be harmed by walking on it,” he said.However, Slaton said he also explained
to Morgan the agreement the port
reached with the Suquamish Tribe in December of 2005, which he described as mitigation for a planned expansion of the Bremerton marina.

Expectations were turned on their head in two Kitsap County political contests during Tuesday night’s primary election, as the perceived front-runners came in third and were disqualified in their re-spective races.
Republican Tim Matthes drew the most
votes in the South Kitsap commissioner’s race, followed by Democrat Charlotte Garrido.
Monty M
ahan, who was the first to de-clare for the seat and earned the endorse-ment of local mayors, came in third (See related story, page A3).

The South Kitsap School District is a little closer to closing its $2.9 million defi-cit for the upcoming school year.
Terri Patton, assistant superintendent for business and support services, said at Wednesday’s school board meeting that the district won’t replace five full-time custodians who left the district after the last school year.
She said that will save the district $250,000.
Patton said the deficit stems from un-foreseen circumstances when the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004.
She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as issues.
In addition to the money saved on cus-todians, Patton said the district will dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 million.
She said that’s not all bad because the district saved more than it anticipated in its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also will save through not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanimously adopted the budget.
Patton warned in previous meetings that the “hard decisions” likely won’t end

Tensions between two Port Orchard neighbors that erupted after one attempt-ed to open a home business last year led both women to head down to the Kitsap County Courthouse M
onday and file re-straining orders against each other.
Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a re-straining order against Amber Keehn after returning home from a camping trip Aug. 17 and discovering pellets had been
shot in three of her home’s windows. Cronan, who lives on the 200 block of
Flower Meadows Street in Port Orchard,
said she believed the attack was part of an ongoing dispute with Keehn, whom she alleges has been running a hair salon out of her home without a business license and in defiance of a city “stop-work” order.
Keehn, 30, said she filed for permission from the city of Port Orchard to operate a hair salon out of her home on the 2300 block of Flower Avenue soon after pur-
chasing it last spring.City Development Director James
Weaver confirmed that Keehn received a conditional-use permit to operate a one-chair hair salon out of her home, which he described as “pretty innocuous” and something that doesn’t typically reach “the level of intensive use,” as far as impacts on the neighborhood are con-cerned.
However, since November of 2007, Cronan has filed multiple complaints with the city regarding traffic, noise and other
activities she reported as stemming from Keehn’s attempts to operate a business out of her home.
Weaver said following an April 11 hear-ing with the city’s Hearing Examiner, cer-tain conditions were placed on Keehn’s permit to mitigate Cronan’s concerns be-fore she would be allowed to operate her business.
“(Keehn) has addressed all but one of those conditions, with the last being the letter from the (Kitsap County) Health Department,” W
eaver said, explaining that Keehn’s current sewer facilities are

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen at First Lutheran Community Church on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-ing difficulty finding people to take the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and good meals, but our attendance is down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-unteered with the kitchen since it opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low attendance to increased difficulty finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices went up, our people coming went down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family
Kitchen volunteer. “Also, they’ve cut down on bus routes, and that’s anoth-er way that they get there.”The Family Kitchen’s volunteers try to make every guest feel welcome by not pushing a particular belief sys-tem — even though most of them are Christian — said Sally Murphy, a volunteer. “The tables are set. No questions are asked. We just want to help,” said DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers still try to cook enough food for about 100 people — the number who used to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes from food and money donations as well as unpredictable free food from the federal government through com-modities.
“Commodities are a strange thing,” said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a certain dish and then you see that half the ingredients are missing,” said Bill Kepper, who has cooked dinner on the last Friday of each month for the kitchen for about three years.
The menu varies from meal to meal, but each dinner has a main course, a salad, a roll, a dessert and a beverage.“They like the spaghetti and meat sauce that I make,” said Kepper. “Another very popular dish is a salmon
loaf with fresh celery cream sauce.” Volunteers prepare the free dinners on the last two Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays of each month at 5 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in Port Orchard.

Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with the Ondracek for the past 16 years,
wrote: “she has worked at creating a loving home for her family, at the same time she has helped create a safe, dependable entertainment resource for the community.”Through the years, the Ondraceks operated two local theaters. They bought a drive-in theater near the Bremerton National Airport in 1986, and they also opened the Redwood Cinema in Bremerton in August 2002. The Redwood closed in 2005, but the drive-in still shows movies start-ing at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
According to the website, the drive-in has “three screens and a total car
capacity of over 850,” which makes it the “second largest outdoor theater complex and by far the largest and oldest family-owned drive-in in the Northwest.”
Drive-in theater owner gets probation, fine for tax evasionCindy Ondracek will pay $30,000 to settle the complaint

The Port of Brem

cussing on
Tuesday an
agreement
reached nearly three years ago with the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard resident expressed concerns
about the nature of the pact.Steve Slaton, the port’s director of m
a-rine facilities, said that interest in the contract w
as sparked after a letter to
the editor written by M
ark Morgan w
as published.
“Based on m
y conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his w
alk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and w
anted to know about the fish-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining that w
hile there were tribal m
embers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason
for the barrier.“O
ne of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t w
ant anyone to
be harmed by w
alking on it,” he said.H
owever, Slaton said he also explained

agreement
the port

The South Kitsap School D

illion defi-cit for the upcom
ing school year.Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-tim
e custodians w
ho left the district after the last school year.
She said that will save the district
$250,000.Patton said the deficit stem
s from un-
foreseen circumstances w
hen the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004.
She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as
issues.In addition to the m
oney saved on cus-todians, Patton said the district w
ill dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 m
illion. She said that’s not all bad because the
district saved more than it anticipated in
its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also will save through
not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanimously adopted the

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

Deputy involved in Aug. 3 crash
A Kitsap County Sheriff ’s deputy received minor inju-ries from an early morning crash on Saturday, Aug. 3, in South Kitsap.
According to Deputy Scott Wilson, KCSO spokes-man, the accident occurred at 12:13 a.m. at the intersec-tion of SE Lund Avenue and Harris Avenue SE.
Wilson said the deputy was driving a black and white 2008 Ford Crown Victoria (patrol vehicle) when he was struck by a 2008 Honda Element, driven by a 31-year-old Central Kitsap resident.
South Kitsap Fire and Rescue emergency personnel responded and treated both drivers.
Wilson said the deputy was transported to Tacoma General Hospital, where he was treated for minor inju-ries, held for observation and released.
The Honda’s driver was treated at the scene and released, Wilson added.
The crash is under inves-tigation by the Washington State Patrol.

Charges were filed Aug. 5 in Kitsap County District Court against three men — two from Port Orchard — who were involved in a series of thefts of vacation houses and homes for sale near Panther Lake in South Kitsap.
The men were arrested Aug. 3 by Kitsap County
Sheriff ’s deputies after a truck, loaded with items, crashed into a wooden area during a pursuit.
Daniel Lee Carter, 38, of Port Orchard, was charged with first-degree possession of stolen property and sec-ond-degree unlawful posses-sion of a firearm, according to court documents.
Michael James Cook, 21, of Port Orchard, was also
charged with first-degree possession of stolen property
Matthew James Bedker, 33, of Lakewood, was charged with first-degree possession of stolen property and sec-ond-degree unlawful posses-sion of a firearm. Bail for Carter and Bedker was set at $200,000, while Cook’s bail is $55,000.
On Aug. 2, deputies responded after a woman
called about 8:40 p.m. to report she found possible stolen items stashed under a tarp near Panther Lake Road. There were trash cans full of house hold items, along with yard tools and a washer and dryer.
Charging papers stated a deputy were headed to the Panther Lake Road area when a white Ford F250 — with three men inside — passed a deputy on Bear Creek Dewatto Road, then turned onto Panther Lake Road. When the deputy tried to pull him over, the truck’s driver sped away. He later lost control and crashed into a wooden area and struck a tree. The three men exited the vehicle and ran.
According to the sher-iff ’s office report, a K-9 unit was called to the scene and tracked down the three men.Inside the truck, which was reported stolen from Kitsap County, two firearms were found. They were reported stolen from Pierce County.
Man charged with vehicular assault
A Port Orchard man was charged with vehicu-lar assault and hit-and-run,
while his 51-year-old mother, Cynthia Sue Hooser, was charged with hit-and-run on Aug. 6.
According to court docu-ment, Eli Zachary Romack, 23, was driving on a four-door coupe with a male pas-senger inside on Feigley Road in Gorst on Aug. 3 when he lost control, rolled down an embankment and hit a tree. Romack called his mother to pick up him and the male passenger. Hooser took them to her Long Lake Road resi-dence, where the two men showered and changed clothes.
Romack and Hooser took the other man home and later called Bethel Towing to remove the car. A pass-erby called 911 to report the collision and when depu-ties arrived at the scene they found the car abandoned, stated court documents.
Dispatcher advised depu-ties the parents of the male passenger, who had sustained a serious head injury from the collision, was taken to Harrison Hospital Urgent Care in Port Orchard. He was later airlifted to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
The following informa-

An investigation continues into three suspicious fires that occurred last month in Port Orchard and South Kitsap, according to Kitsap County Fire Marshall Dave Lyman.
Lyman said his office is conducting interviews with people who were on the top floor of two-story Port Orchard building when a fire started on July 11. The top-level apartment was above the former Los Cabos res-taurant at the corner of Bay Street and Fredrick Avenue.
“We believe a fire started in a bedroom on the southwest corner of the apartment,” Lyman said.
He said his office did not
identify an accidental cause for the blaze.
Lyman said material from the fire was sent to the crime lab, but he is awaiting results.
“It may take weeks or months, or even longer to get results back,” he said.
The fire, which happened about 8 p.m., started in the apartment’s main entryway.
About eight hours after the downtown fire, another one erupted in the west end of Division Street. It destroyed a 26-foot motorhome, boat and trailer, and camping trailer.
“We believe that fire was due to arson,” Lyman said. “We also submitted materi-als to the crime lab and we expect we’ll find accelerants were there.”
Port Orchard police have been working with the Fire Marshall’s Office on the Bay and Division street fires.
“We are continuing to interview some people involved with the fire,” Lyman said.
A July 20 fire partially destroyed a vacant South Kitsap modular home near the intersection of Bethel Avenue and Pine Road.
Lyman said material from the fire will be submitted to the crime lab and deputies have another lead they are checking into.
Lyman said none of the fires are connected.
Anyone who has informa-tion about the fires can leave their name and phone num-ber at 360-337-4442.
Investigation continues into Port Orchard, SK fires

Some smokers consider park as ash trayLast week, I had the privilege of going to the new South
Kitsap skate park with my 10-year-old grandson and his scooter.
I realized after observing the rolling activity for a few minutes that I was watching a truly amazing event of unplanned, human cooperation. Riders of all sizes, shapes and ages were riding scooters, bikes, skateboards and roller blades in every conceivable direction, jumping, turning, and rolling at variable speeds without crashing, swearing, making unkind gestures or crude remarks at each other.
This harmony could never have been orchestrated with stop lights, round a bouts, speed bumps or speed limits. Not one rider was smoking, eating, texting or talking on
the phone while rolling. And many riders were wearing their required helmet.
Too bad that smokers consider the landscaping, park-ing lot and surrounding trails and wooded area their personal ash tray. Disgusting cigarette butts surround the track. I am willing to pick up some trash, but that’s as far as my goodwill goes.
Too bad discourteous smokers control an otherwise delightfulenvironment. The skate park is a stage for goodwill in our community. So soon it is being visually destroyed by thoughtless smokers.

Port Orchard city councilmem-bers will spend many hours today interviewing 10 applicants to fill
the District 1 vacancy left on the coun-cil by Jim Colebank, who resigned last month.
Judging by the letter of interests pre-sented to the city, the council has several people with interesting background and résumés.
To the council, I would say, “Pick the best candidate, not your friend or political ally. Select the best man or woman who has the most to bring to the council.”
The city is facing some tough choices in the future with increasing population, creating revenue, budgets, providing public services and others.
Remember, the newly appointed councilmember will help make decisions that will affect the city and its residents, along with poli-cies.
Among the applicants are people of all ages with college degrees, those who are active in the community, those active in civic groups and organizations, those with business experience in the profit and non-profit sectors and those with work or military experience.
Some have lived in the city for long periods of time, some a few years.
Seven of the 10 are women, so the chances for another female councilmember on the male-dominated group are pretty good.
Really, what the city needs is a person with vision, energy, integ-rity, passion and who can be a team player. Actually, the city needs someone who sees the “bigger picture” and not just about their political ambitions.
Legendary college football coach Paul Bear Bryant once said, “In order to have a winner, the team must have a feeling of unity; every player must put the team first ahead of personal glory.”
Pick the best team player that can help the council, not the “glory hog” who is looking out for him or herself.

Piling on BP — but who’s next?In football, players who
jump on the ball carrier after he’s been tackled
get a 15-yard penalty for pil-ing on. But in a courtroom, piling on can get you billions of dollars.
That’s exactly what the trial lawyers are doing in the lawsuits against BP for the Deepwater Horizon spill.
In 2010, BP’s oil rig explod-ed, killing 11 workers and spilling almost five million barrels of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico more than 87 days. It was a disaster for BP and the Gulf states, but since then, the company has attempted to make amends.
In 2012, BP agreed to four years of government moni-toring of its safety practices and ethics, paid $4.5 billion in fines to the Department of Justice and was suspend-ed from new government contracts. Forbes Magazine reports that, as of February 2013, the Gulf oil spill has cost BP more than $42 billion in legal settlements and environmental restoration.
Apparently, that’s not enough.Trial lawyers say the settlement agreement BP negoti-
ated is actually open-ended, and they are actively recruit-ing businesses to make claims against BP even if the spill didn’t directly harm those businesses.
BP challenged that interpretation, but the settlement fund’s administrator agreed with the trial lawyers, as did U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier, once the head of the Louisiana Trial Lawyers Association. BP has appealed
AWB View
Don Brunell
See brunell, A7
Barbier’s ruling to the Federal Appeals Court.
What’s in it for the law-yers? Fees totaling millions or even billions of dollars.
Critics charge that this is nothing short of a feed-ing frenzy by trial attorneys to turn the BP settlement into a bottomless pocket for the trial bar. Trial lawyers respond that it’s the agree-ment BP signed, and BP’s lawyers should have done a better job if they didn’t like the terms.
People who may be tempted to cheer for the trial lawyers as they pile on BP should think again.
This isn’t about just BP, because if the trial lawyers
succeed in expanding dam-age suits against BP to those not directly impacted by the spill, it opens a whole new area of costly litigation that we will all pay for.
Imagine that your home insurance is deemed to cover not only the damages to your neighbor who was injured on your property but also to that neighbor’s dry cleaner or grocer or car service because they didn’t make as much money while the neighbor was laid up. Where does it end?
That’s called piling on. What employer could do business — or afford insur-ance — under those circum-stances?
While it is important to seek justice, it is equal-ly important that we not declare war on U.S. compa-nies that are already battling
global competition, high taxes, costly regulations and the economic slowdown. After all, they provide thou-sands of family-wage jobs, pay dividends for retired people and stimulate the economy.
Lawsuit abuse saps resources that businesses could otherwise use to cre-ate jobs or expand. In fact, liability costs in the U.S.
amount to roughly 2 percent of our gross domestic prod-uct. Runaway lawsuits are especially costly to manufac-turers and contribute to the structural cost disadvantage facing U.S. manufacturers.
While it may be fun to watch trial lawyers pile on BP, we should take care, lest we find our economy and our jobs buried at the bot-tom of that pile.

State Senate needs Jan Angel
State Rep. Jan Angel is an honest, caring and real con-gresswoman who will bring so much to the State Senate.
I got to know Jan Angel when we were fighting for a dog park. She helped and listened, and without her we would have lost our fight.
Get Jan in the Senate and begin to believe in honesty and hard work in politics again.
She is the real deal.Joan McNelly | Port Orchard
SeIU versus the votersI think almost all would
like to see efficient, effec-tive state government. The one big exception is the SEIU (Service Employees International Union) bosses.
They want more union dues, higher pay and less work per union member. They are involved in the political process, elections, so they can get their puppet politician into office. I have watched live, state legislation being removed from the ses-sion agenda, that had biparti-san support.
It was removed because the union bosses called their puppet Legislator and told him to table it indefinitely.
Many cities and coun-ties have gone bankrupt due to these puppet politicians. Detroit is an example of the most recent case.
We now have an election in the 26th Legislative District for state senator. Incumbent Nathan Schlicher gets a 100 percent rating from the union bosses. His opponent, Jan Angel, gets a 100 percent rating from small businesses. The union bosses are fund-ing the majority of the PAC attack ads on Angel, nearly $120,000 spent so far. Their ads are lies.
If you want efficient, effec-tive state government please vote for Jan Angel to be our next 26th District state sena-tor.

waiting for the rest of the circus to arrive
Have all the county engi-neers retired or been fired? Because cars traveling on the east-west road are coming to the north-south road slowing down to do a quick look and turning right, heading north up the hill at 20 mph on the north-south road.
This little uncourteous “I have the right of way, you can wait for me,” move causes
northbound traffic on the north-south road moving at 45 mph into a hard-braking situation. This same situation happens when east-west traf-fic turns left very abruptly onto the north-south road heading south up the hill at 20 mph causing 45 mph southbound traffic moving at 45 mph into a hard-braking situation.
The situation at the present time is that the road is being made wider it would appear. It would also appear that the power poles on the north-south road are being moved back away from the road. As the road has been established for more than 40 years traf-fic on the east-west road was somewhat restricted keeping accidents at this location low. Now it would appear that more lanes will be added to allow more cars to enter the intersection to travel at 20 mph up the north bound hill and 20 mph up the south bound hill. It would appear the that the north-south hard braking situation will still exist but be increased by the admission of more east-west cars into the north-south traffic pattern at a higher vol-ume.
According to the rumor and the print media, the modification is being made because of the number of collisions at the intersection. This traffic modification is brilliant, absolutely brilliant, posing the question, “How will this traffic modification decrease the number of acci-dents at this intersection?”
It would appear that because the power company is moving power poles that power is already present at this intersection. Therefore, would it not have been more logical and cost effective to put a traffic signal in at this alleged dangerous intersec-tion with traffic cameras to photograph those that do not stop? This signal would also eliminate any modifications to the existing road and the addition of additional lanes saving the county funds at a time when the county con-tends they are in financial straights.
Additionally, the project could be done in a few weeks rather than months as is the plan now at far less expense. At the rate of occurrence of people that do not stop at this intersection, the signal tickets should pay for the modifica-tions in a very few years.
All of this leads me back to my original question, “Have all the county engi-neers retired or been fired?” Because it appears that all of the clowns have arrived and are just waiting for the rest of the circus to arrive at the cor-ner of Mullenix and Bethel-Burley roads.

Staff report
Former Port Orchard Mayor Lary Coppola has been named as the new executive officer of the North Peninsula Building Association (NPBA).
Coppola succeeds FaLeana Wech, who accept-ed the position of communi-cations and public relations director with the Building Industry Association of Washington.
Coppola will be respon-sible for the day-to-day
business operations of the association, as well as mem-bership and revenue growth, including the group’s well-respected Future Builders Program, aneducational partnership that introduces high school and college stu-dents, to all aspects of the building industry.
He has served as a board member of the Homebuilders Association of Kitsap County (HBA) and on its Government Affairs and Legislative Policy Committees for
almost 20 years. In addition, he has been a state direc-tor for the Building Industry Association of Washington, serving on its Legislative Policy Committee and its political action committee, the Washington Affordable Housing Council (WAHC).
He was responsible for overhauling the city’s per-mitting system so now it is one of the fastest and most certain in the Puget Sound region. He was honored by the HBA as its city Official of the Year in 2010, and had
been previously recognized twice as its Affiliate of the Year.
The Kitsap Association of Realtors (KCAR) has also recognized him as its Citizen of the Year and Associate of the Year twice each.
Coppola is the former president and chief execu-tive officer of Wet Apple Media, which he founded. The company publishes the Kitsap Peninsula Business Journal, West Sound Home and Garden and Remodel Kitsap magazines.

BUSINESS TALKPort Orchard
By LESLIE KELLYFor the Independent
Rising interest rates, rising prices and rising consumer confidence are creating a “positive cyclone of home sales activity,” according to members of the Northwest Multiple Listing Service. A robust job market around the Greater Seattle area is also spurring sales.
Member-brokers reported 9,565 pending sales during July for an increase of more than 13.6 percent from a year ago — the highest year-over-year gain since January. Last month’s mutually accepted offers across 21 counties also marked a slight improvement on June’s total of 9,484 pend-ing sales.
Northwest MLS direc-tor John Deely, the principal managing broker at Coldwell
Banker Bain in Seattle, said multiple offers are being reported in all price ranges “with properly priced new listings, and we’re still seeing a surprising number of all cash buyers.”
He also noted many trans-actions are conditioned on the closing of a pending sale as move-up sellers enter the market to buy a new prop-erty.
The number of closed sales and the prices on those trans-actions both rose by double digits compared to a year ago. Members recorded 7,772 completed transactions area-wide to outgain the year-ago volume by 27.5 percent. The median price of those closed sales, which included single family homes and condomin-iums, was $282,363. That’s up 10.8 percent from the year-ago figure of $254,900.
“We experienced a mini power surge of sales activ-ity that was touched off by a sudden raise of interest rates during the month of May,” observed J. Lennox Scott, chairman and CEO of John L. Scott Real Estate. Scott attributes part of the surging activity to buyers who rushed forward to purchase a home before rates climb higher. He also reported more sellers are listing their homes “due to the realization that the next home they purchase will be at a higher interest rate.” As these sellers become buy-ers, they’re contributing to the “positive cyclone of sales activity,” Scott stated.
MLS members added 10,860 new listings to inven-tory during July to boost the system-wide selection to 25,272 active listings. That is only about 5.5 percent fewer
listings than a year ago when inventory stood at 26,747 active listings.
In Kitsap County, 515 new residential and condomini-um listings went on the mar-ket last month creating 1,542 total active listings.
There were 465 pending sales which was almost 16 percent more than during the same time last year. There were 385 closed sales, up 35 percent over last year for the month of July.
The average selling price was $287,209 with the medi-an price being $232,950, which was down by about 4 percent from last year’s medi-an in July.
Despite improving inventory overall, supplies remained low, particularly around job centers. Area-wide there is about 2.6 months of supply, which
indicates a seller’s market. In a normal market, a healthy supply level favoring neither buyers nor sellers is around 6 months, according to indus-try analysts.
MLS director Frank Wilson, representing Kitsap County where there is 3.3 months of supply, expects the seller’s market will con-tinue for at least the next few months.
He noted 16 percent more homes in Kitsap County went under contract than the same month a year ago, crediting some of that uptick to the sense of urgency that buyers are feeling because of recent jumps in interest rates.
The average fixed rate on a 30-year mortgage was 4.37 percent last week, up from January’s rate of 3.41, accord-ing to Freddie Mac.
Buyers should be aware of
interest rates now and lock in a rate, stressed Wilson, the Kitsap District manager and branch managing broker at John L. Scott Real Estate Poulsbo – Kingston.
“There is nothing more disappointing than hav-ing your offer accepted on a home, then have an inter-est rate jump disqualify you from the purchase,” he said, adding, “if you want to gam-ble go to Las Vegas; if you want to buy a home lock the rate.”
Three counties have less than three months of supply. At the current pace of sales in King County, it would take just 1.5 months to sell the current supply.
In Snohomish there is only 1.6 months of supply and in Thurston County the existing supply would be exhausted in about 2.9 months.

KHS running over with catsSILVERDALE — Kitsap Humane Society (KHS) is over-
flowing with cats of all ages, shapes and sizes. For a limited time, KHS is offering 50 percent off adoption fees for all adult cats more than one year old.
Also, KHS has seen a recent influx in the number of “barn cats” coming to the shelter and is looking for cat lovers who have a barn or other secure outdoor structures. The cats are not suitable for life inside a house or are simply unhappy liv-ing inside.
Cat temperaments range from feral to friendly. KHS’ barn cat program is designed to find homes for cats that have traditionally been deemed un-adoptable through its normal adoption procedures. Barn cats are free to good homes. Applications are available at [email protected].

Olalla church celebrating 20 years of service
By DANNIE OLIVEAUXEditor
The Spirit of Life Lutheran Church has been a staple
in the Olalla community since 1993. But like many churches, it has had its “ups and downs,” but the church members remain faithful and supportive.
On Sunday, Aug. 11, the church’s congregation will celebrate their 20-year anniversary with a special celebration worship service at 11 a.m., followed by a barbecue dinner at 12:30 p.m.
The church, located at the corner of Mullenix and Phillips Road, began under George Larson, the former pas-tor.
Larson, who pastored the church from 1991 until he retired in April 2006, said he named of the church after he asked his congregation to submit name ideas for the new church.
“Spirit of Life just came to the top,” he said.
Marvin Lutz, 67, a char-ter member, attended the church’s first service at Mullenix Elementary School after moving to South Kitsap from California.
He went to work at the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and bought property in South Kitsap.
“I heard they were start-ing a new church here and we gave it a try,” Lutz said. “It fit like a glove.”
Lutz also was chairman
of the church’s first Building Committee that helped to raise money for a church building. The building was completed in October 1993 with help from a church member who was a contrac-tor.
Lutz said the church paid him $1 and the church borrowed money from the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America Synod.
The bottom level of the church was constructed in 1996. The sanctuary also serves as part of the daycare.
“The church was designed to be multi-purpose,” said Pastor Sarah Roemer, who has been min-istering at the church since December 2010.
Roemer, who said her congregation is between 60 and 65 people, is a mixture of people of different ages.
“We’re a congregation in the pro-cess of rede-veloping,”
Roemer said. “We are trying to renew ourselves. We are a congregation that is engag-ing in transformation and renewal.”
Viola Baskett, 87, said she started attending the church after she and her husband saw a newspaper ad about a new church starting and that the church needed a bulldozer.
“My husband had big toys and a bulldozer,” Baskett said. “I told him we have to check out the church because they need a bull-dozer. That’s how we started coming. We never left.”
Baskett said when she started attending Spirit of Life it was like a new begin-ning.
She attended larger church in Parkland and was “burned out” before coming to Spirit of Life.
“I’ve always been a church-goer and I had to go to church,” said Baskett, who has live in South Kitsap for 23 years.”
Joann Smith, who worked for the U.S. Navy in San Diego and Guam, and her husband returned home to South Kitsap and met a man selling Christmas trees at the church. He invited them to come inside and see the church.
“The next Sunday we came here,” Smith said. “And all my old friends were here.”
Janet Hane, 74, said the daycare was started before the building.
Hane, a life-long
Lutheran, started attending Spirit of Life in 1996 after she transfered from First Lutheran Church.
Greg Coste, 58, one of the churches newest mem-bers, said he was a lost soul before coming to the church in 2010.
“I found my way here to give something back,” said Coste, a former Catholic who also works at the church’s food bank, which is open on Saturdays.
Baskett and Smith said they feel the word “family” describes the church, while Lutz said it is a “giving” church.
Hane said the church is a beacon of light showing Jesus Christ’s love to the community.
“After 20 years, we’re still here and it’s been a strug-
gle,” Hane said. Roemer feels that “praxis”
best describes the church today.
“It’s that place here you faith becomes your action,” Roemer said. “This church has a practice of praxis. It’s unlike any church I’ve ever encountered. It is always going and always doing. It’s always trusting in the midst of all those actions because of faith and not about themselves or ourselves, but about the world around them.”
Lutz said the church means a lot to the com-munity, including giving away food baskets dur-ing the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays.
“With the size of our congregation, more than every household gave a
basket during the holidays,” Roemer said.
The church also has a full-time daycare for ages up to 12 years old.
Lutz said the idea of the daycare and food bank was not to attract members, but the serve people in the com-munity.
“That’s the main purpose of Spirt of Life is to serve the community,” he added.
Roemer said it has not been an easy road for the church’s congregation.
“We’re always working hard and sometimes it hard to maintain a budget at time,” Roemer said. “There has been some really big dreams here that have died, but the people continue to be faithful because God will provide.”
despite ups and down, Spirit of Life survives

XNOTICE TO
OCCUPANTS OR TENANTS
The purchaser at the Trustee’s Sale is entitled to possession of the property on the 20th day following the sale, as against the Grantor under the deed of trust (the owner) and anyone having an interest junior to the deed of trust, in- cluding occupants who are not tenants. After the 20th day following the sale the purchaser has the right to evict oc- cupants who are not tenants by summary proceedings under Chapter 59.12 RCW. For tenant-occupied proper- ty, the purchaser shall provide a tenant with written notice in accor- dance with RCW 6 1.24.060. If the Trus- tee’s Sale is set aside for any reason, the sub- mitted bid will be forth- with returned without interest and the bidder will have no right to pur- chase the property. Re- covery of the bid amount without interest constitutes the limit of the bidder’s recourse against the Trustee and/or the Beneficiary.
XlNOTICE TO ALL PER- SONS AND PARTIES WHO ARE GUARAN- TORS OF THE OBLIGA- TIONS SECURED BY THIS DEED OF TRUST: (1) The Guarantor may be liable for a deficiency judgment to the extent the sale price obtained at the Trustee’s Sale is less than the debt se- cured by the Deed of Trust; (2) The Guarantor has the same rights to reinstate the debt, cure the default, or repay the debt as is given to the grantor in order to avoid the trustee’s sale; (3) The Guarantor will have no right to redeem the property after the Trus- tee’s Sale; (4) Subject to such longer periods as are provided in the Washington Deed of Trust Act, Chapter 61.24 RCW, any action brought to enforce a guaranty must be com- menced within one year after the Trustee’s Sale, or the last Trustee’s Sale under any deed of trust granted to secure the same debt; and (5) In any action for a defi- ciency, the Guarantor will have the right to es- tablish the fair value of the property as of the date of the Trustee’s Sale, less prior liens and encumbrances, and to limit its liability for a de- ficiency to the difference
between the debt and the greater of such fair value or the sale price paid at the Trustee’s Sale, plus interest and costs.

South Kitsap will kickoff its 35th anniversary as a
charter member of the Narrows League when the Wolves open Sept. 6 at Kentridge. But will it be the last?
Two years ago, South appeared poised to join Kentridge — and many oth-ers — in the Class 4A South Puget Sound League. Mount Tahoma was set to move to 3A Narrows with the other Tacoma Public Schools, (excluding Stadium) along with Shelton. Those defec-tions threatened to leave 4A Narrows with just six members — a number that South athletic director Ed Santos felt was too small to remain a viable league.
That supplied the impetus for South and four others — Bellarmine Prep, Central Kitsap, Gig Harbor and Olympia — to seek admission to the SPSL. According to SPSL president of athletic direc-tors Rick Wells, South and Central even submitted applications to join the league.
Enter Yelm.Officials at that school
thought enrollment numbers would keep the Tornados in the 3A clas-sification. But when the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association, which calculates classifica-tions by percentages every two years to avoid imbal-ances, released its prelimi-nary enrollment numbers Dec. 6, 2011, Yelm had a dozen students more than 1,304 cutoff for 4A. Schools with the top 16 to 17 per-cent enrollment, such as South, are recognized as 4A. There also is the option to “opt up” to classifications with larger enrollments.
At the time, Yelm athletic director Thad Nelson said they were “in the process of double checking all of our numbers and making sure they’re completely accurate.” And after watch-ing several of his programs, with the exception of wres-tling, struggle through the
transition to 4A Narrows, expect Nelson to do the same when the WIAA again releases enrollment counts later this year. In 3A Narrows, the Tornados might have played for a
state-playoff berth. Instead, they needed a win over light-weight Mount Tahoma in the Narrows’ cross-over game just to finish 5-5.
Think Yelm would not be excited to return to 3A Narrows?
Without the Tornados, it is difficult to
envision 4A Narrows con-tinuing. None of the teams in 3A Narrows were close to the 4A cutoff two years ago and that is unlikely to change. If Yelm returns to 3A Narrows, South and the rest of the league’s 4A schools would have the option to join them in a multi-classification league.
But outside of Stadium, whose administration prefers remaining with the other Tacoma Public Schools, that option does not resonate well with 4A Narrows schools. Santos and others have maintained that a multi-classification Narrows comes with a risk of diminished competition when they play smaller schools regularly during the season and face similar-sized ones in the postsea-son.
But a move to the SPSL presents some negate fea-tures, as well. Longtime Wolves’ fans expressed disappointment when the old Bay and Bridge divi-sion format prevented them from playing rival Bellarmine during the regular season from 1997 to 2007.
Adding six schools would give 4A SPSL 24 teams. Regardless of the divisional numeric arrange-ment, which theoretically could be anywhere from two to four, South and oth-ers regularly could miss playing traditional rivals in football.
There also is the mat-ter of geography. For Kentwood and Mount Rainier, roundtrips to
Central, Olympia and South would be more than 90 miles.
Those are the primary downsides to a potential move. The biggest asset in a move to 4A SPSL would be competition. The Wolves regularly meet those schools, particularly in boys and girls soccer, with state-playoff berths at stake. Kentwood has won two of the last four state baseball championships and the Conquerors perennially are a title contender in several
sports. Several other 4A SPSL schools have been successful at state, as well.
Joining the SPSL also could solve some inequali-ties — or at least perceived ones. For example, former South baseball coach Jim Fairweather groused in 2011 that despite being a higher seed than Kentwood before the West Central District Tournament, his team faced the prospect of playing Conquerors at Kent Memorial, which is their home field. That did not
come to fruition as South played Puyallup at Kent Memorial, but the point remains.
“We’re slappies,” Fairweather said at the time. “They think they’re that much better than we are. Now they’re even load-ing the table more by put-ting all of the playoff sites in their backyard. Nobody crosses this bridge, ever. We could go up to the [Kitsap County Fairgrounds] and play.”
But with South and oth-
ers having an equal voice in the same league, that might not be an issue. Perhaps we will see the Wolves hosting Federal Way or Tahoma at the Kitsap County Fairgrounds.
For now, the only cer-tainty is South will open its football season in four weeks at French Field in Kent. And that might be a regular occurrence — with playoff implications — in the near future.

South Kitsap and Kentridge, who face each other in the Sept. 6 season opener, could be assigned to the same league in the near future.

community briefS
By MICHELLE BEAHMStaff Writer
It’s the stuff summer memories are made of. Whether it's that time when your mom and dad
piled you and your siblings in the car with the bag of just-popped popcorn, or whether it was the time as a teen, when you met all your friends there, drive-in movies have been a part of many of our pasts.
It's nostalgia at its best.And although the number of drive-in theaters has
sharply been reduced — from 4,000 at their prime to just more than 350 now — Kitsap County residents don't have
to go far to enjoy a night at the drive-in theater. Just outside Bremerton, sits the Rodeo Drive-In
Theatre, with three separate screens and space for more than 1,000 cars. After more than 60 years, it’s still going strong. It's open from around mid-March until around late-September and offers first-run movies on the giant screen.
In fact, at the Rodeo Drive-In, movie-goers get two movies for the price of one.
One of only six drive-ins left in Washington, Rodeo Drive-In has been around since the height of drive-in popularity. The first drive-in theater was established in 1933 by Richard Hollingshead, Jr., and at one point there were more than 4,000 drive-in theaters in the country. Now, there are 357, according to the United Drive-In Theater Owners Association.
In the spring and fall, the Rodeo Drive-In is open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. In the summer, it’s open seven days a week. Movie tickets are $9 for each adults, and $6 for children 12 and under, and seniors 55 and older.
“It’s a good price to watch two movies,” said Amber Etchells, a regular visitor to the drive-in theater.
The Rodeo Drive-In was first opened in 1949 and start-ed with just a single screen, and is now the only drive-in movie theater in Kitsap County.
By the time the current owners bought it in 1986, there were already three screens and a concessions stand, but renovations did not stop. Recently, updates were made at the Rodeo Drive-In to switch their movies from film to digital.
“The studios have decided that they are going to use digital as their medium of choice, and within the next year, we expect them to stop providing motion pictures on film,” said Jack Ondracek, owner of the Rodeo Drive-in.
Because of the studios’ decisions to go digital, and without following suit, the amount of movies available to Rodeo Drive-In would have decreased, soon, he said. Eventually, no new movies would have been made avail-able.
According to Ondracek, the conversion cost about $250,000.
“We’ve known this project was coming for 10 years,” he said. “We've been planning for this for a long time. We bought and paid for this with the support of our custom-
ers.”Everyone is welcome at the drive-in, and in Field 1,
with the largest screen at 43 feet by 86 feet, is used to show the new movies, especially family movies. Kids can run around on the playground at this location before the movies start.
“We like that, while we’re waiting for the movie, they have a place to play and keep themselves occupied instead of getting antsy while we wait,” said movie-goer Kysa Burch. She was at a show recently to celebrate her son’s sixth birthday. “It's more comfortable, more relaxed.”
Etchells was also visiting the drive-in with her son, who is 18 months old.
“We have a kid, so if he starts screaming, we’re inside a car,” laughed Etchells, and said that's one reason why she prefers the drive-in over the regular, indoor movie theater.
Ondracek said drive-in theaters and indoor theaters each have their “fans,” but that there’s a bit of a crossover.
"I think the drive-in is an environment that is not quite so formal," he said. “The kids can play in their play-ground. The experience is different. Part of it, too, is the personality of the theater. Every drive-in is different. Most indoor theaters are built pretty much the same.”
Some drive-in theaters have speakers out in the parking areas, but Rodeo Drive-In plays the audio for the movies over radio waves, so anyone attending can hear the movie on their car radio and adjust the volume to their own lik-ing.
And, just incase of a dead car battery, the staff keeps equipment on hand to jump-start any cars that need it.
Since 1986, Rodeo Drive-In has been a family-owned and operated business. Ondracek said during the months when the theater is open seven days a week, he and his family are working seven days a week.
“Every night's different out here. We have a huge number of fans," said Ondracek. “We really enjoy it a lot. We’ve raised our family here. The kids have all worked the snack bar.”
Ondracek's daughter, Cheryl, still works there, manag-ing concessions, staffing and security.
While drive-in theaters seem to be numbered with the passing of time, Ondracek hinted that the Rodeo Drive-In plans to stick around.
“We’re planning on being here for a lot of years,” he said.

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen at First Lutheran Community Church on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-ing difficulty finding people to take the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and good meals, but our attendance is down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-unteered with the kitchen since it opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low attendance to increased difficulty finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices went up, our people coming went down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family
Kitchen volunteer. “Also, they’ve cut down on bus routes, and that’s anoth-er way that they get there.”The Family Kitchen’s volunteers try to make every guest feel welcome by not pushing a particular belief sys-tem — even though most of them are Christian — said Sally Murphy, a volunteer. “The tables are set. No questions are asked. We just want to help,” said DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers still try to cook enough food for about 100 people — the number who used to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes from food and money donations as well as unpredictable free food from the federal government through com-modities.
“Commodities are a strange thing,” said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a certain dish and then you see that half the ingredients are missing,” said Bill Kepper, who has cooked dinner on the last Friday of each month for the kitchen for about three years.
The menu varies from meal to meal, but each dinner has a main course, a salad, a roll, a dessert and a beverage.“They like the spaghetti and meat sauce that I make,” said Kepper. “Another very popular dish is a salmon
loaf with fresh celery cream sauce.” Volunteers prepare the free dinners on the last two Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays of each month at 5 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in Port Orchard.
Sharon Demianiw put some of the extra cilantro, lettuce, apple and carrot salad into a to go box for a guest.
Family Kitchen aims to feed SK’s hungry — if it can find them
By KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with the Ondracek for the past 16 years,
wrote: “she has worked at creating a loving home for her family, at the same time she has helped create a safe, dependable entertainment resource for the community.”Through the years, the Ondraceks operated two local theaters. They bought a drive-in theater near the Bremerton National Airport in 1986, and they also opened the Redwood Cinema in Bremerton in August 2002. The Redwood closed in 2005, but the drive-in still shows movies start-ing at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
According to the website, the drive-in has “three screens and a total car
capacity of over 850,” which makes it the “second largest outdoor theater complex and by far the largest and oldest family-owned drive-in in the Northwest.”
Drive-in theater owner gets probation, fine for tax evasionCindy Ondracek will pay $30,000 to settle the complaint

The blessing is for all creatures great and small,

Pastor Orv Jacobson blesses the animals by dousing them with water from a palm branch dipped into a pan of

No questions are asked. We just want to help,” said DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers still try to cook enough food for about 100 people — the number who used to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes from food and money donations as well as unpredictable free food from the federal government through com-modities.
“Commodities are a strange thing,” said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a certain dish and then you see that half the ingredients are missing,” said Bill Kepper, who has cooked dinner on the last Friday of each month for the kitchen for about three years.

Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball.

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

The Port of Bremerton will be dis-
cussing on
Tuesday an
agreement
reached nearly three years ago with the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard resident expressed concerns about the nature of the pact.
Steve Slaton, the port’s director of ma-
rine facilities, said that interest in the contract was sparked after a letter to
the editor written by Mark M
organ was published.
“Based on my conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his walk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and wanted to know about the fish-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining that while there were tribal m
embers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason for the barrier.
“One of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t want anyone to
be harmed by walking on it,” he said.
However, Slaton said he also explained to M
organ the agreement the port
reached with the Suquamish Tribe in
December of 2005, which he described as
mitigation for a planned expansion of the
Bremerton m
arina.

The South Kitsap School District is a little closer to closing its $2.9 m
illion defi-cit for the upcom
ing school year.Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-time
custodians who left the district after the last school year.
She said that will save the district $250,000.
Patton said the deficit stems from
un-foreseen circum
stances when the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004.
She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as issues.
In addition to the money saved on cus-
todians, Patton said the district will dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 m
illion. She said that’s not all bad because the
district saved more than it anticipated in
its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31. Patton said they also will save through
not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanimously adopted the
budget.Patton warned in previous m
eetings that the “hard decisions” likely won’t end

Tensions between two Port Orchard neighbors that erupted after one attem
pt-ed to open a hom
e business last year led both wom
en to head down to the Kitsap County Courthouse M
onday and file re-straining orders against each other.
Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a re-straining order against Am
ber Keehn after returning hom
e from a cam
ping trip Aug. 17 and discovering pellets had been
shot in three of her home’s windows.
Cronan, who lives on the 200 block of Flower M
eadows Street in Port Orchard, said she believed the attack was part of an ongoing dispute with Keehn, whom
she alleges has been running a hair salon out of her hom
e without a business license and in defiance of a city “stop-work” order.
Keehn, 30, said she filed for permission
from the city of Port Orchard to operate
a hair salon out of her home on the 2300
block of Flower Avenue soon after pur-
chasing it last spring.City
Development
Director Jam
es W
eaver confirmed that Keehn received
a conditional-use permit to operate a one-
chair hair salon out of her home, which
he described as “pretty innocuous” and som
ething that doesn’t typically reach “the level of intensive use,” as far as im
pacts on the neighborhood are con-cerned.
However, since November of 2007,
Cronan has filed multiple com
plaints with the city regarding traffic, noise and other
activities she reported as stemm
ing from
Keehn’s attempts to operate a business
out of her home.
Weaver said following an April 11 hear-
ing with the city’s Hearing Examiner, cer-
tain conditions were placed on Keehn’s perm
it to mitigate Cronan’s concerns be-
fore she would be allowed to operate her business.
“(Keehn) has addressed all but one of those conditions, with the last being the letter from
the (Kitsap County) Health Departm
ent,” Weaver said, explaining
that Keehn’s current sewer facilities are

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen at First Lutheran Community Church on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-ing difficulty finding people to take the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and good meals, but our attendance is down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-unteered with the kitchen since it opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low attendance to increased difficulty finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices went up, our people coming went down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family

The menu varies from meal to meal, but each dinner has a main course, a salad, a roll, a dessert and a beverage.“They like the spaghetti and meat sauce that I make,” said Kepper. “Another very popular dish is a salmon
loaf with fresh celery cream sauce.” Volunteers prepare the free dinners on the last two Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays of each month at 5 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in Port Orchard.

Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with the Ondracek for the past 16 years,
wrote: “she has worked at creating a loving home for her family, at the same time she has helped create a safe, dependable entertainment resource for the community.”Through the years, the Ondraceks operated two local theaters. They bought a drive-in theater near the Bremerton National Airport in 1986, and they also opened the Redwood Cinema in Bremerton in August 2002. The Redwood closed in 2005, but the drive-in still shows movies start-ing at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
According to the website, the drive-in has “three screens and a total car
capacity of over 850,” which makes it the “second largest outdoor theater complex and by far the largest and oldest family-owned drive-in in the Northwest.”

The blessing is for all creatures great and small,
which describes Rylie Jo Cudahy and her chihua-
hua, Josie.
Pastor Orv Jacobson blesses the animals by dousing them with water from a palm branch dipped into a pan of
water held by Pastor George Larson. This year’s event attracted around 60 pets, including a llama.
By JEFF RHODES
“Last year we had 99
percent dogs and one tur-
tle,” recalled Pastor George
Larson. “This year it’s 99 per-
cent dogs and one llama.”
All told, Larson estimates
about 60 pets — and their
owners — participated in
First Lutheran Community
Church’s annual Blessing of
the Animals service on Sept.
25 at the Mitchell Avenue
location.Larson began performing
the blessings about a dozen
years ago while pastor at
Spirit of Life Community
Church in Port Orchard.
Since retiring, he has affili-
ated with First Lutheran and
has brought his dog and pony

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen at First Lutheran Community Church on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-ing difficulty finding people to take the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and good meals, but our attendance is down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-unteered with the kitchen since it opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low attendance to increased difficulty finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices went up, our people coming went down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family
Kitchen volunteer. “Also, they’ve cut down on bus routes, and that’s anoth-er way that they get there.”The Family Kitchen’s volunteers try to make every guest feel welcome by not pushing a particular belief sys-tem — even though most of them are Christian — said Sally Murphy, a volunteer. “The tables are set. No questions are asked. We just want to help,” said DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers still try to cook enough food for about 100 people — the number who used to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes from food and money donations as well as unpredictable free food from the federal government through com-modities.
“Commodities are a strange thing,” said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a certain dish and then you see that half the ingredients are missing,” said Bill Kepper, who has cooked dinner on the last Friday of each month for the kitchen for about three years.
Sharon Demianiw put some of the extra cilantro, lettuce, apple and carrot salad into a to go box for a guest.

Cindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old co-owner of a local drive-in theater, was sentenced on Friday to three years probation and fined $30,000 for tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-lion in gross receipts between 2001 to 2005 from two movie theaters that they owned, but they didn’t file federal tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time, according to the indictment and plea agreement. They also admitted that they knew what they were doing, and they inten-tionally concealed their gross receipts from the IRS.
“It is clear that both Jack and Cindy Ondracek willfully attempted to evade their taxes,” according to the plea agreement. But only Cindy will face charges, since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the affirmative acts of evasion,” according to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the defendant described her as a smart, honest woman who loves her family. Her sister said that Cindy was the valedictorian of her graduating class in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-pated in many high school extracur-ricular activities including honor soci-ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with the Ondracek for the past 16 years,

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

The Port of B
remerton w
ill be dis-cussing
on Tuesday
an agreem
ent reached nearly three years ago w
ith the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard
resident expressed
concerns about the nature of the pact.
Steve Slaton, the port’s director of ma-
rine facilities, said that interest in the contract w
as sparked after a letter to
the editor written by M
ark Morgan w
as published.
“Based on m
y conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his w
alk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and w
anted to know about the fish
-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining
that while there w
ere tribal mem
bers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason
for the barrier.“O
ne of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t w
ant anyone to
be harmed by w
alking on it,” he said.H
owever, Slaton said he also explained
to M
organ the
agreement
the port
reached w
ith the
Suquamish
Tribe in
Decem
ber of 2005, which he described as
mitigation for a planned expansion of the

The South K
itsap School District is a
little closer to closing its $2.9 million defi-
cit for the upcoming school year.
Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-tim
e custodians w
ho left the district after the last school year.
She said
that w
ill save
the district
$250,000.P
atton said the deficit stems from
un-foreseen circum
stances when the district
presented its last levy to voters in 2004. She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as
issues.In addition to the m
oney saved on cus-todians, P
atton said the district will dip
into its reserve fund for $1.72 million.
She said that’s not all bad because the district saved m
ore than it anticipated in its last fiscal year, w
hich ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also w
ill save through not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanim
ously adopted the budget.

Tensions between tw
o Port Orchard
neighbors that erupted after one attempt-
ed to open a home business last year led
both wom
en to head down to the K
itsap C
ounty Courthouse M
onday and file re-straining orders against each other.
Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a re-
straining order
against A

n after returning hom
e from a cam
ping trip A
ug. 17 and discovering pellets had been
shot in three of her home’s w
indows.
Cronan, w
ho lives on the 200 block of F

as part of an ongoing dispute w
ith Keehn, w
hom she
alleges has been running a hair salon out of her hom
e without a business license
and in
defiance of
a city
“stop-work”
order.K
eehn, 30, said she filed for permission
from the city of Port O
rchard to operate a hair salon out of her hom
e on the 2300 block of F
lower A

chasing it last spring.C

Director

ed that Keehn received
a conditional-use permit to operate a one-
chair hair salon out of her home, w
hich he described as “pretty innocuous” and som
ething that doesn’t typically reach “the
level of
intensive use,”
as far
as im
pacts on the neighborhood are con-cerned.
How

The Port of B
remerton w
ill be dis-cussing
on Tuesday
an agreem
ent reached nearly three years ago w
ith the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard
resident expressed
concerns about the nature of the pact.
Steve Slaton, the port’s director of ma-
rine facilities, said that interest in the contract w
as sparked after a letter to
the editor written by M
ark Morgan w
as published.
“Based on m
y conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his w
alk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and w
anted to know about the fish
-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining
that while there w
ere tribal mem
bers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason
for the barrier.“O
ne of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t w
ant anyone to
be harmed by w
alking on it,” he said.H
owever, Slaton said he also explained
to M
organ the
agreement
the port
reached w
ith the
Suquamish
Tribe in
Decem
ber of 2005, which he described as
mitigation for a planned expansion of the
Brem

The South K
itsap School District is a
little closer to closing its $2.9 million defi-
cit for the upcoming school year.
Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-tim
e custodians w
ho left the district after the last school year.
She said
that w

the district
$250,000.P
atton said the deficit stems from
un-foreseen circum
stances when the district
presented its last levy to voters in 2004. She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as
issues.In addition to the m
oney saved on cus-todians, P
atton said the district will dip
into its reserve fund for $1.72 million.
She said that’s not all bad because the district saved m
ore than it anticipated in its last fiscal year, w
hich ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also w
ill save through not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanim
ously adopted the budget.

arned in previous meetings

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009.
Depending on how long the prelim-inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.
Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one
can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”
Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.
“Even the state’s expert witness will testify that, had he been in the

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.
“When we first heard about it, we couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”
The episode began around 4:16 p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.
According to Wilson, deputies arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

Gudmundsen. “There is a big canopy here that keeps the sun from drying out fall-en leaves. It’s a fairly damp area with a creek running through it.”
Gudmundsen said the cause of the fire is unknown.
“We speculate it could be from a camp fire or some-thing like it,” he said. “We have not found anything that indicates that so far.”
Gudmundsen said he dis-continued fighting the blaze during the night because it was too dangerous for fire-fighters.
“Some firefighters were reporting they would be walking along, then all the sudden they would fall into a 2- to 3-foot hole that had been burned out,” he said.
The battalion chief said the fire was burning into the root systems and up in the trees.
“Some of the trees were torching up spontaneously and branches were falling out of the trees,” Gudmundsen said.
He said crews cut paths to the blaze so fire hoses could be laid. Water tenders trav-eled to and from the area until Tuesday afternoon.
“We started getting water on the fire, as well as the hand crews digging around
the fire,” Gudmundsen said.He noted a strike team
— comprised of firefight-ers from within Kitsap, King and Pierce counties
— arrived Monday and Tuesday to assist with the fire. About 30 firefighters battled the blaze Tuesday.
Gudmundsen said during
the summer months, SKFR responds to brush fires in the area, but nothing as large this week’s fire.

In West Sound UD com-missioner’s race, two cur-rent commissioners run-ning for the same position will face off in November
for the position. James J. Hart was the top vote-getter (1,254) with more than 61 percent of the vote, while Jeannie Screws (1,038) received more than 36 per-cent.
Kevin P. Long finished third with 18 percent or 540 votes.
Hart and Screws are vying for a single commis-sioner’s seat after two dis-tricts merged to form West Sound UD.
Republician State Rep. Jan Angel, of Port Orchard, made a good showing in the party primary race against 26th Legislative
District Senator Nathan Schlicher, a Democrat from Gig Harbor.
Angel, the top vote-get-ter, received close to 60 per-cent of the voters in Kitsap and 52 percent in Piece. In Kitsap, she finished with 7,240 votes to Schlicher’s 5,441 or 42 percent.
Overall, Angel had 13,134 votes (55 percent) to Schlicher’s 10,863 (45 percent).
“This is a good indica-tor to tell us where we are at,” Angel said during the National Night Out event in Port Orchard on Tuesday.
In a Wednesday press
release, Schlicher stated he’s gained positive momentum with the results.
“We are excited to see the gap closing,” Schlicher stat-ed. “With three months to go, we have the momentum and are excited to see the final results in the general!”
The Secretary of State’s office reported that 24 per-cent of registered voters in the county cast ballots and 1,500 ballots remained to be counted Tuesday night.
The Election Division will post unofficial results and will update them regu-larly until final results are certified Aug. 20.

OLYMPIA — Homelessness has decreased throughout the state, accord-ing to numbers released July 9 by the Washington State Department of Commerce.
The numbers are from the statewide annual Point in Time Count that took place Jan. 24.
Local homeless service providers and volunteers across the state counted 17,775 people living unshel-tered or in emergency shel-ters or transitional hous-
ing. Of those, 5,043 were unsheltered — an 8 percent decrease in the rate of home-lessness from 2012 and a 15 percent decrease from 2006.
There were 133 unshel-tered families with children (463 people) — a 28 percent decrease in the rate of home-lessness from 2012 and a 73 percent decrease from 2006.
“We are moving in the right direction to reduce homelessness across the state,” said Gov. Jay Inslee. “These numbers illustrate
the effectiveness of programs like Housing and Essential Needs, the Consolidated Homeless Grant, and other local and federal programs. However, there is still work to be done to help people living on the streets, in the woods, in cars and in shel-ters.”
The reduction in home-lessness can be attributed to an increase in homelessness programs. These include programs like Housing and Essential Needs and the
Consolidated Homeless Grant – which both started in 2012 — and other local, state and federal homeless-ness programs.
These programs address homelessness by providing resources to help people out of homelessness and into their own permanent hous-ing with temporary rental assistance.

Volunteers plentiful, but attendance at church-sponsored meals has dwindledBy KAITLIN STROHSCHEIN
Leaders at the local Family Kitchen
at First Lutheran Community Church
on Mitchell Avenue have had increas-
ing difficulty finding people to take
the free meals they give away. “We have lots of volunteers and
good meals, but our attendance is
down,” said Bea DeBoer, who’s vol-
unteered with the kitchen since it
opened 22 years ago.Several leaders attribute the low
attendance to increased difficulty
finding transportation.“We’ve noticed that when gas prices
went up, our people coming went
down,” said Nobi Kawasaki, a Family
Kitchen volunteer. “Also, they’ve cut
down on bus routes, and that’s anoth-
er way that they get there.”The Family Kitchen’s volunteers try
to make every guest feel welcome by
not pushing a particular belief sys-
tem — even though most of them
are Christian — said Sally Murphy, a
volunteer. “The tables are set. No questions
are asked. We just want to help,” said
DeBoer. “It’s a good, warm, friendly
setting and good food.”About 30 to 50 people eat at each of
the kitchen’s dinners, but volunteers
still try to cook enough food for about
100 people — the number who used
to go back in the program’s heyday. Leftover food is boxed and sent
home with Family Kitchen’s guests. Support for the program comes
from food and money donations as
well as unpredictable free food from
the federal government through com-
modities. “Commodities are a strange thing,”
said DeBoer, because there’s no telling
what kind of food they will bring. “Sometimes you plan on making a
certain dish and then you see that half
the ingredients are missing,” said Bill
Kepper, who has cooked dinner on
the last Friday of each month for the
kitchen for about three years.
The menu varies from meal to
meal, but each dinner has a main
course, a salad, a roll, a dessert and a
beverage.“They like the spaghetti and meat
sauce that I make,” said Kepper.
“Another very popular dish is a salmon
loaf with fresh celery cream sauce.” Volunteers prepare the free dinners
on the last two Mondays, Tuesdays,
Thursdays and Fridays of each month
at 5 p.m. at First Lutheran Church in
Port Orchard.

Family Kitchen aims to feed SK’s hungry — if it can find them
By KAITLIN STROHSCHEINCindy Ondracek, the 49-year-old
co-owner of a local drive-in theater,
was sentenced on Friday to three
years probation and fined $30,000 for
tax evasion.Ondracek entered a plea agreement
in March of this year. Cindy and her husband, Jack
Ondracek, received more than $2 mil-
lion in gross receipts between 2001 to
2005 from two movie theaters that
they owned, but they didn’t file federal
tax returns for themselves or for either
of their theaters during that time,
according to the indictment and plea
agreement. They also admitted that they knew
what they were doing, and they inten-
tionally concealed their gross receipts
from the IRS. “It is clear that both Jack and Cindy
Ondracek willfully attempted to evade
their taxes,” according to the plea
agreement. But only Cindy will face charges,
since Jack didn’t deal with the couple’s
banking paperwork.“Because Cindy Ondracek did the
couple’s banking, she committed the
affirmative acts of evasion,” according
to the plea agreement. Several letters in support of the
defendant described her as a smart,
honest woman who loves her family.
Her sister said that Cindy was the
valedictorian of her graduating class
in 1979, and she said Cindy partici-
pated in many high school extracur-
ricular activities including honor soci-
ety, cheerleading, pep band, volleyball
and basketball. A film buyer, who has worked with
the Ondracek for the past 16 years,
wrote: “she has worked at creating
a loving home for her family, at the
same time she has helped create a safe,
dependable entertainment resource
for the community.”Through the years, the Ondraceks
operated two local theaters. They bought a drive-in theater
near the Bremerton National Airport
in 1986, and they also opened the
Redwood Cinema in Bremerton in
August 2002. The Redwood closed in 2005, but
the drive-in still shows movies start-
ing at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday
and Sunday.According to the website, the drive-
in has “three screens and a total car
capacity of over 850,” which makes
it the “second largest outdoor theater
complex and by far the largest and
oldest family-owned drive-in in the
Northwest.”
Drive-in theater owner gets probation, fine for tax evasion
Cindy Ondracek will pay $30,000 to settle the complaint

“Last year we had 99 percent dogs and one tur-tle,” recalled Pastor George Larson. “This year it’s 99 per-cent dogs and one llama.”All told, Larson estimates about 60 pets — and their owners — participated in First Lutheran Community Church’s annual Blessing of the Animals service on Sept.

Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009. Depending on how long the prelim-
inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.“Even the state’s expert witness
will testify that, had he been in the

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.“When we first heard about it, we
couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”The episode began around 4:16
p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.According to Wilson, deputies

The Port of Brem
erton will be dis-
cussing on
Tuesday an
agreement
reached nearly three years ago with the
Suquamish Tribe after at least one Port
Orchard resident expressed concerns
about the nature of the pact.Steve Slaton, the port’s director of m
a-rine facilities, said that interest in the contract w
as sparked after a letter to
the editor written by M
ark Morgan w
as published.
“Based on m
y conversation with M
r. M
organ, he had run into a barrier during his w
alk on the (Port Orchard M
arina’s dock), and w
anted to know about the fish-
ing boats he saw,” Slaton said, explaining that w
hile there were tribal m
embers fish-
ing nearby, the boats were not the reason
for the barrier.“O
ne of the metal hinges on the public
dock broke, and we didn’t w
ant anyone to
be harmed by w
alking on it,” he said.H
owever, Slaton said he also explained
to M
organ the
agreement
the port
reached with the Suquam
ish Tribe in D
ecember of 2005, w
hich he described as m
itigation for a planned expansion of the B

The South Kitsap School D
istrict is a little closer to closing its $2.9 m
illion defi-cit for the upcom
ing school year.Terri Patton, assistant superintendent
for business and support services, said at W
ednesday’s school board meeting that
the district won’t replace five full-tim
e custodians w
ho left the district after the last school year.
She said that will save the district
$250,000.Patton said the deficit stem
s from un-
foreseen circumstances w
hen the district presented its last levy to voters in 2004.
She cited escalating teacher salaries
and pension rates along with inflation as
issues.In addition to the m
oney saved on cus-todians, Patton said the district w
ill dip into its reserve fund for $1.72 m
illion. She said that’s not all bad because the
district saved more than it anticipated in
its last fiscal year, which ends Aug. 31.
Patton said they also will save through
not filling other vacant positions in the district, and through cutting expenses on supplies.
The board unanimously adopted the
budget.Patton w
arned in previous meetings
that the “hard decisions” likely won’t end

neighbors that erupted after one attempt-
ed to open a home business last year led
both wom

Shelia Cronan, 49, said she filed a re-straining order against A

shot in three of her home’s w
indows.
Cronan, who lives on the 200 block of

as part of an ongoing dispute w

alleges has been running a hair salon out of her hom
e without a business license
and in defiance of a city “stop-work”
order.K
eehn, 30, said she filed for permission
from the city of Port O
rchard to operate a hair salon out of her hom

South Kitsap’s Source for News & Information Since 1890
By KAITLIN STROHSCHEINStaff Writer
Jury selection began on Monday in the trial of Daniel James Mustard, a South Kitsap teen accused of kill-
ing his 87-year-old neighbor, Ruby Andrews, on April 5, 2009. Depending on how long the prelim-
inaries take, opening statements were expected by the end of the week.Mustard pleaded innocent by
insanity to the murder.“I cannot defend this act. No one can,” said Mustard’s lawyer Bryan G. Hershman. “It’s god-awful, and it’s a tragedy, but that’s not what this story is.
“This is a mental health problem,” he said, “that was accelerating and becoming more acute during a period when we can confirm that he was 100 percent sober and not taking drugs.”Mustard, Hershman said, was in a
period of “psychiatric crisis” so severe that he was taken to the emergency room at Harrison Medical Center nine days before the murder accord-ing to Hershman.“Even the state’s expert witness
will testify that, had he been in the
Mustard trial hinges on insanity defenseDefendant claims a laundry list of mental problems led him to kill his 87-year-old neighbor

Despite public skepticism, investi-gators are convinced the Monday night incident in which a 4-year-old
boy apparently wounded his 23-year-old mother with a shotgun happened exactly as reported.“When we first heard about it, we
couldn’t imagine how a thing like that could happen, either,” said Kitsap
County Sheriff ’s Office spokesman Deputy Scott Wilson. “But once we arrived on the scene, the evidence made it pretty clear.”The episode began around 4:16
p.m., when deputies were dispatched
to a report of a gunshot injury sus-tained by a young woman at a resi-dence in the 10400 block of Glenwood Road SW, in South Kitsap.According to Wilson, deputies
arrived at 4:21 p.m. followed by a South Kitsap Fire & Rescue medic

Kayakers and Paddleboarders enjoy the warm weather recently on the waters of Dyes Inlet. Paddle Kitsap begins at the inlet Aug. 10. Seraine Page / Kitsap Week
By Seraine Page Kitsap Week
K ayakers and water-craft enthu-
siasts of all skill levels will paddle up the Kitsap Peninsula during the sixth annual Paddle Kitsap on Aug. 10-11.
And they want you to join them.
This year’s route is new and goes from Silverdale to Poulsbo along the
Kitsap Peninsula Water Trail. The trail used to be 35 miles and extended from Poulsbo to Port
Gamble. This year’s trip is shorter —
20 miles — but takes two full days with an overnight stay at
Illahee State Park in East Bremerton.
“We’re excited because we’ve changed the route a bit for this year,” said Forrest Wells, manager of www.kayakproshop.com and Olympics Outdoors
Center. “We’ve made it shorter
for folks who may have not done this paddle before.”
The paddle begins at Dyes Inlet and ends in Poulsbo’s Liberty Bay.
According to the Paddle Kitsap website, paddlers of all ages are welcome: “Paddle Kitsap is for all levels of paddlers. You do not have to be an expert to paddle this course. It is fully supported so you can paddle a little or all

The Saints Car Club of Port Or-chard welcomes car owners, visitors, city and county residents to the 26th annual “The Cruz” on the waterfront in downtown Port Orchard Aug. 11.
This is the Saints 15th year promot-ing and producing on “The Cruz” car show. It was started in Bremerton 26 years ago, and after two years it was taken over by Van Vlist and moved to Port Orchard where it has been ever since.
The Saint’s Car Club took over “The Cruz” in 1998 and has been building the event every year to the community affair it has now be-come.
The Saint’s Car Club was started in 1953 and continued until early 1962 when it disbanded. The club restart-ed in 1995 and now has 65 mem-bers, several were past members from when the club started in the early 1950s. Today’s members own a variety of vehicles built in 1973 and older, including antique cars, street rods, customs and muscle cars as well as a couple of “rat rods”.
The club is active in the communi-ty and works with organizations such as the South Kitsap Helpline, provide two scholarships for South Kitsap High School students and make vari-ous donations to other charities each year. The club was recognized as Car
Club of the Year 2012, for the State of Washington by the Washington Car Club Council.
We expect more than 700 vehicle to enter this year’s “The Cruz” and we will award trophies in 53 classes of vehicles. Dash plaques are given to all vehicle entrants as well as door prize tickets. Event T-shirts and raf� e tickets will be for sale. The club will also be taking donations for Helpline and the South Kitsap Scholarship Fund.
“The Cruz” attracts about 15,000 spectators for the annual one-day event.
Shuttle busses will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. from the parking lot at the South Kitsap Armory on Mile Hill Drive and the Kitsap County Court-house on Division Street to “The Cruz” event. The foot ferry will also be operating between Port Orchard and Bremerton. Handicap parking will be available at the Port Orchard boat launch.
The primary sponsor of “The Cruz” is Kitsap Bank. Musical entertainment and vendors will be at “The Cruz” and a street fair will be downtown on Bay Street in Port Orchard.

Saints Car ClubHosts 26th Cruz
BY DANNIE OLIVEAUXEditor
The featured car for this year’s 26th annual Cruz is a mixture of old car parts with some modern design.
The two-door 1936 Ford coupe is owned by Olalla resident Dan Jones.
Jones started working on the car in 1995 and 15 years later his dream car was complete.
“I would work on it in the evenings after work until 2006,” Jones said.
For those 15 years, Jones’ friend Andy Barchek, would help him once a week to build the car.
“Andy was a real driving force for me,” Jones said. “Without him, I don’t think I would have ever � nished this car if he didn’t hammer me. He also was instru-mental in giving me ideas.”
Jones purchased the car’s body — without the transmission, engine and interior — from an Everett resident.
“The � oorboards were in pretty bad shape and I had to put in all new material,” he said. The � oor-boards are now covered with tan carpet.
Jones said he did all the sheet metal work himself. The original car body was a “hump-back” when Jones started, but he cut the hump off and replaced it with a slanted back end.
“Now it’s a slantback, instead of a hump-back,” Jones said. “I have more than 1,000 hours of work just on the body.”
The front headlights, from a Porsche, are mounted to hand-made sheet metal panels that sit inside the two front fenders.
The running boards are steel, the tail lights are from a 1937 Ford and the rear bumper is from a
1944 Ford and was heavily modi-� ed to � t the car.
“We’d cut and chop and ev-erything else we could do to it to make it � t the car,” Jones said.
The car also has a touch of modern conveniences, such as
a power antenna, cruise control, air conditioning and a digital radio neatly hidden behind a panel on the dash board.
“You have to have a radio for some music,” Jones said.
A 16 gallon fuel tank was added for extended cruis-ing and the dash-board is complete
with a speedometer, tachometer, fuel, oil and water temperature gauges.
For a comfortable ride, Jones installed two tan bucket-seats from an Isuzu Impulse. “I drove an Impulse back and forth to work for � ve years,” Jones said. “I loved the seats, so I found another set.”

have a radio for some music,” Jones said.
BY JOHN KINCLSpecial for the Independent
Joe Hubert (1935-2012) was the ultimate “car guy.”
Old family movies show two-year-old Joe drawing pictures of cars on a chalkboard, explaining the details with childish enthusiasm. He pur-chased his � rst car — a 1940 Willys station wagon — before he even had a driver’s license.
Foreshadowing his amazing au-tomotive skill and vision, he quickly converted it from a wagon into a coupe. There are many stories of his escapades with his high school buddies in that old Willys. His next car was a 1940 Mercury which he embellished with � ames on the hood — one of the � rst “� ame jobs” in Kitsap County.
His interest in cars was not just a teenage phase for Joe; it remained a focus throughout his life. After serving for two years in the U.S. Army, he returned to Port Orchard
and took a job as the parts manager at Cleveland Chevrolet in 1957. He was also a founding member of the Saints Car Club in the 1950s and designed the club’s logo — which is used today.
He was meticulous about his cars, washing them daily and keeping everything spotless under the hood.
In 1958, Joe bought his � rst Chevrolet, a 1957 fuel-injected Bel Air, thus beginning his conversion to a hardcore Chevy enthusiast. He loved drag racing and competed in his 1957 car at Bremerton and Puy-allup raceways. In 1961, he bought a 1959 Corvette which he souped up with a 348 cubic inch engine.
In 1962, he ordered a Chevrolet 409 engine directly from the factory — before they were even avail-able in new cars — and put it in his 1962 Corvette. He continued to use that engine, installing it in numerous cars over the years, and it remains with the family today.
By the early 1970s, Joe retired
from drag racing. With a wife and children, commuting to work, and building a second house for his family, time and money for drag racing became scarce. He changed his focus to restoration. His � rst ma-jor project was a 1934 � ve-window Chevrolet Master Deluxe coupe.
The rusted-out chassis arrived along with a bevy of cardboard boxes containing the rest of the parts. He did all the restoration work himself — mechanical and wiring, painting and upholstery. He spent many hours going to swap meets and wrecking yards, hunting for that one certain part.
A whole new phase of life opened up for him.
In 1994, Joe retired from Boeing and was able to spend more time on his cars. He continued col-lecting old cars, starting with old Chevys then other General Motors models, mostly Cadillacs and La-Salles. He did beautiful body work, using his own self-taught tech-niques that he perfected by trial and error. It was dif� cult for him to
part with a car after he had put so much time and care into it, and his collection grew to a total of 14.
Among these were a second 1957 Bel Air which he restored to look just like his � rst one, an elegant 1932 LaSalle touring se-dan, a 1940 LaSalle sedan that he transformed into a one-of-a-kind woodie, and a bright red 1958 Impala, his dream car from his younger years.
Joe remained active in the Saints Car Club throughout his life and was quick to share his knowledge with anyone who asked. Even in his later years, Joe could iden-tify any passing classic car with a simple glance. In 2002, Joe began to experience health problems that affected his vision and prevented him from working in his garage as much as he would have liked.
But his appreciation for a “beauti-ful body” never waned. In 2010, he purchased a 2011 Camaro, a fan of Chevy’s decision to reprise the original body style. His diminished vision did not allow for much driv-ing time, but he took comfort in its presence in his garage next to his other treasured works of art.

My Dad and my hero was Larry Dean Smith — “Pickles” to all those who knew him in Port Orchard.
Dad was an amazing man, wonderful son, brother, husband, grandfather and father to � ve children.
He was born in Kitsap County on Dec. 18, 1934 in South Colby and was a hometown boy until he died on Nov. 8, 2011 at age 76.
He loved Port Orchard, al-though we moved away for work off and on, we always came back. Dad graduated from South Kitsap High School in 1953, but it didn’t come easy. He was a star athlete in several sports at South Kitsap. At 16 years old, he was involved in a terrible ac-cident. While pushing a car up Mile Hill Drive, he was pinned by the car and lost both his legs.
The town rallied around him and money was collected in big pickle jars for his future — hence the “Pickles” nickname from a kid stuck with him even more. After graduation, he attended Olympic College and worked at Boeing for more than 38 years as a quality control inspector and IAM union delegate.
Dad was an inspiration to all who knew him.
I didn’t even know what the word handicap was growing up. With him as a father, he never let it affect what he loved to do in his life. He loved to garden, hunt, and barbeque with friends and family. But most of all he loved watching the South Kitsap High School football and base-ball games with fellow alumni and he was a member of the Port Orchard Eagles.
Dad had a love for old cars for many years, but raising � ve children he put that on hold. He even sold some favorite cars and trucks to help support his family.
Shortly after he retired and settled into his Port Orchard home, I found a beautiful green � ve-window 1950 Chevrolet
truck down in Manchester that a nice gentleman had restored to stock.
I called Dad and told him it was a “10” and he said I’ll buy it. Sight unseen but I had the trust of my Dad and years of his experience being shared with me. It meant a lot to me that he trusted me.
It was a rush to see him start to enjoy a new chapter of his life and get together with all his old buddies from the Saints Car Club again. Harvey, my older brother, joined him and they made many happy memories for us all.

My Dad, my hero — Larry Dean “Pickles” Smith
See My Hero Pg 6
The annual Cruz Classic Car show sponsored by the Saints was something Dad always loved, getting up early and work-ing the registration table. He was always excited and proud about donating money earned from the show to community organiza-tions and high school scholar-ships.
There was one little problem with the little green truck — he could not drive it since it was a four-speed due to insurance liability with legs. This always bothered me because trust me he was a great driver and didn’t have one accident driving all his life.
He could drive a stick bet-ter than anyone I knew and he
taught me to double clutch! I remember test driving a 1958 Chevrolet truck when I was just 16.
Dad drove the truck off the lot and the � rst stop light he turned to me and said, “Reach over and put your foot on the brake when I tell you too.”
I did as he said and he pulled over after the light.
“Your turn to drive,” he said. It seemed the steering column
was in Dad’s way and he braked with his right leg. I heard it hit the column about the same time he told me to push on the brake. He was calm as a cucumber, but we didn’t buy the truck with the fancy paint and big wheels.
Dad found a truck for me parked in a � eld. It was a 1948 Chevrolet that cost $100. He told me I would appreciate it more
� xing it up and he was right. I did and I have loved working on old trucks since and plan on do-ing it when I retire.
Dad’s favorite past time after he retired was the car club, which he was a founding member.
I found his original car plaque from the 1950s and my brother cleaned it up and we gave it to him to put on his 1950 Chevrolet.
My brother and Mom and I took turns driving the truck to shows and to Buck’s A&W on Wednesday evenings, where he loved to hang out with all his car buddies.
Then one day, we � nally talked him into putting an automatic in his 1950 Chevy. He loved the stock truck so much and he didn’t want to ruin it. But a good friend found a stock automatic and they put it in.
I will never forget the look on his face and excitement in his step when he drove it to the church car show. He got a big trophy that day, too. It was like watching a kid with his license for the � rst time and I was so proud of him.
Dad had a sense of humor that carried him through some dif-� cult times in his life. He never ever felt sorry for himself for hav-ing arti� cial legs and never used it as an advantage in his life.
All who knew him were aware of his sense of humor and loved being teased by him. He always had a smile on his face and he loved people and classic cars and trucks!
We miss you Dad and I will al-ways be proud to be Pickles’ kid.

easy access to the trunk.Jones credits Stitches in Bremer-
ton for the car’s upholstery.Inside the trunk there is a large
sub-woofer speaker that drives the music when out for a cruise.
Other parts and pieces that were used to complete Jones’ ‘36 Ford include a steering column from a 1980 Chevrolet Camaro and a power sunroof from a Volvo.
The door handles have been “shaved” which creates a clean, no handle look and are operated with a remote control device to open them from outside the vehicle. There’s a button on the interior console that also operates the doors from inside the car.
Under the hood features a 327
Chevrolet small block engine mated to a 350 turbo automatic transmission and the rear end is a 9-inch Ford. The dual exhaust system pumps out a note that will please any car enthusiast’s ear.
The car’s stance was created by
using staggered 14 inch wheels on the front with 15 inch wheels on the back. The wheels are Ameri-can Racing’s Torque Thrust model, which provide a modern and clas-sic look at the same time.
While Jones said the bulk of
the work on the car was done by himself, when it came to the paint he enlisted the help of Keith Russell who painted the car using an Audi Hibiscus Pearl Red.
“It has a lot pearl in it and � ne metallic particles in the paint,” Jones said.
“I’ve been to quite a few car shows and I’m trying to get to even more,” he said. “I took it to Good Guys car show last year in Califor-nia. This car drives so well, it’s un-believable. This really drives sweet.”
“This car was built to � t me,” Jones said. “We constantly got me in and out of the car to make sure everything was the right � t.”
Jones estimates the car is worth about $80,000, but he said during the 15-year project he put about $35,000 into the car.

of it depending on your ability and how you are feeling. Most of the course does not leave the shoreline and the open water crossings are short in duration. What is for sure is that there will be excellent scenery, glimps-es of wildlife, and great friendships.”
In 2009, the event was voted the “Best Paddling Event of the Year” by Johnson Outdoors. The cost of the event is $189 for adults and $125 for youth for the full two days. For the one-day option, the cost is $99 for adults and $65 for youth. The price does not include kayak rental or sales tax, but does include food and shuttles to and from launch sites.
The event is open to any human-powered watercraft, including standup paddleboards, kayaks and canoes. Prior experience is not needed.
Participants can paddle with the group or on their own. It is recommended that participants bring their own tent, sleeping pad and sleeping bag,
according to Olympic Outdoors Center. Family members may also bring a camper to the site for the overnight stay.
“This trip is so fun my family and friends come from Utah, Idaho and Seattle to join me,” Olympic Outdoor Center program director Spring Courtright wrote. “My mother, who is a 66-year-old local, also joins every Paddle Kitsap trip.”
Safety boaters will be out on the water to assist paddlers.
“One of the rewarding parts about the event in the past has been helping people accomplish a goal they set out to check off their list,” Wells said. “For me, it’s just about helping folks make that next step from recreational paddler to more of an enthusiast.”
Participants should be mindful that the event is not a race and is meant to be relaxing, Wells said. To keep things in order, an experienced paddle guide will take the lead and one will trail the group. Floaters will also be available in the middle of the group to assist those with questions.
“We’re not out to set any records for how fast
we complete the event,” Wells said. “It’s just about enjoying the environment and getting out and enjoy-ing the people you’re pad-dling with.”
Participants can expect to spend between four and six hours on the water each day, Wells said. There will be breaks before and after lunch. Participants can choose to end their trip any time there is a break.
For those who aren’t regular paddlers, it might
take some time to get used to sitting in the kay-aking position, so Wells recommends spending time before the event sit-ting in the watercraft.
“It’s always good to spend some time in the boat just getting your body used to it,” he said.
The number of par-ticipants generally varies year to year, depending on the weather. Wells said
the group number has reached more than 100 people when the weather is good. At press time, the weather was expected to be mid-to-high 70s and partly cloudy.
“Once everybody’s out on the water, the energy’s always real positive,” he said. “We’re all kinda traveling like a big pod of orcas.”
Partial proceeds from
the event will be donated to the North Kitsap Trails Association, which preserves and protects water access in North Kitsap. The associa-tion created the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trail, a designated 238-mile water trail along the Hood Canal and Puget Sound. The trail has 90 public access points, according to Olympic Outdoors Center.
Additionally, the Kitsap Peninsula Water Trail has been added as a segment of the Cascadia Marine Trail, which is a National Scenic Trail.
According to the Washington Water Trails Association, paddling-related activities contrib-ute almost $1.7 million to the Kitsap County economy yearly.
Paddle Kitsap offers waivers for those who cannot afford the full price of the event. Go to www.paddlekitsap.com.

Jherek Bischoff performs Aug. 16 at Bainbridge Performing Arts
It has been an inter-esting half-decade for Northwest grape
growers and winemakers, and it looks at this point as if Mother Nature will not be creating too many headaches for them this fall.
In fact, in Washington and Oregon, wine grapes appear to be on track or even a bit early, and harvest is expected to begin before Labor Day weekend.
Let’s take a look back at the previous four vintages and the roller coaster they’ve given growers and winemakers a ride on.
2009: This was looking to be a warm, near-perfect vintage in Washington until a sud-den frost occurred Oct. 10 that all but ended the growing season three weeks early and left growers and winemak-ers scrambling to bring in grapes immediately. Winemakers in western Oregon were given a break and brought in their grapes without too many issues related to weather.
2010: In Washington, this was the coldest year since 1999, with few red grapes being harvested before Oct. 1 — a full two weeks later than normal. Many wondered if it might be a lost vintage, but patience paid off, as growers and winemakers
worked hard into early November. Oregon also was extremely cool, and the late-ripening crop was susceptible to migratory birds, which stopped and feasted on the precious Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris and Chardonnay, decimating much of the crop — often by as much as half.
2011: If Washington winemakers thought 2010 was cold, then what was 2011? The new standard for a cool vintage. First, a November 2010 freeze crippled vineyards across the valley, especially in the Horse Heaven Hills. Then bud break was
two to three weeks late, and vines never caught up. Harvest began even later than 2010, push-ing into the third week of September. Harvest went into November. Oregonians saw this as another miracle vintage, with one winemaker equating it to being down to his last strike with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning before the rally began. It was not unlike 1991 and 1999, when a late, dry push helped deliver the grapes.
2012: In Washington’s Columbia Valley, this looked more like most of
the prior decade, with the grapes being on a normal track and ripening with-out issue. Harvest started around Labor Day and ended around Halloween, just as it should. In fact, a few winemakers told us they felt guilty because 2012 seemed so easy after the prior three vin-tages. The result was a record harvest of just shy of 200,000 tons of wine grapes. Western Oregon winemakers also fared well, dealing with the usual amount of rain dur-ing harvest and dodging any big storms that might wash out the vintage.
And this year? Growers and winemakers are still in their crossing-
our-fingers mode, but they are set up to begin harvest in Washington as early as the last week of August in some areas and right around Labor Day in others. The only problem might be that it is too early and too warm. Winemakers prefer a bit of extra hang time for their grapes so their juices can develop into something complex.
In Oregon, Willamette Valley winemakers are expecting their crop to be at least 10 to 20 per-cent lower than normal because of poor weather in June when the grapes just were beginning to form. However, they are pleased with what is
on the vines because of warm temperatures and otherwise dry weather.
While everything looks good, Mother Nature can still step in at any time and change things. However, Washington and Oregon grape growers and winemakers are set up to take advantage of this year’s so-far stellar weather, and this leaves a sense of optimism as we head into harvest around the first week of September.

BainBridge island reviewDiver who died in Blakely Harbor was Bainbridge resident: The deceased diver who was pulled from Blakely Harbor July 29 was 65-year-old Gene Priestman of Bainbridge Island.
The cause of death was not released at press time.
Priestman’s body was recovered in approximately 108 feet of water just south-east of Blakely Rock by a lo-cal diver and divers from the Seattle Police Harbor Patrol just before 1 p.m., July 29.
Priestman had been part of a group of recreational divers near Blakely Rock; he was reported missing just before 10:30 a.m., July 27.
Marine 8, the Bainbridge Island Police Department’s marine unit, was on patrol in the area of Blakely Rock when officers heard about the missing diver over the radio.
A diver told Bainbridge police that a fellow diver

Central Kitsap reporterHospital affiliation will not require a Certificate of Need: The proposed affiliation between Harrison Medical Center in Kitsap County and the Franciscan Health Care System will not require a certificate of need process.
That is the determination of the state Department of Health, which was just made public by the department.
The certificate of need process is a lengthy process that potentially would cost millions of dollars and would include public comment. A certificate of need deter-mines if a plan fulfills the needs of a community.
Officials at Harrison and Franciscan have said that the process was not required because the affiliation is not a merger or a purchase and the state has now agreed.
The two medical entities plan to affiliate and this deci-sion by the state makes that reality a faster process with less public interaction.

north Kitsap heraldSound Works Job Center seeking new home; Aug. 15 shutdown date: Sound Works Job Center has been notified by the City of Poulsbo to vacate its office at 780 Iverson St. by Aug. 31.
The office, next to Cof-fee Oasis, will be used for other purposes. The city has allowed Sound Works use of the office rent-free since 1995.
Sound Works Executive Director Bob Middlebrook said he and his board of directors have diligently, but unsuccessfully, searched for a new home during the short extension granted by the city.
In order to accomplish
this move out, Sound Works is shutting down Aug. 15 to relocate the free internet, fax, computers, software, tele-phone and training materials used by job seekers.
Sound Works Job Center is asking the public’s help in finding a new location to continue its service to the community. According to Middlebrook, more than 98 percent of the organization’s funding goes back into the operation of its free employ-ment services. As a result of this, the organization does not have the funding to buy or rent an office.
With more than 40,000 client visits for employment services since the job center moved into its office on Iver-son Street, nearly everyone in North Kitsap has a family
member or knows someone that has been directly af-fected by this organization, Middlebrook said.
