LITTLE BOSTON — As the wooden totem pole carved by her husband was raised at the Port Gamble S’Klallam Early Childhood Center Tuesday, June Jones wiped tears from her eyes.
She said the emotions are full of joy and seeing the pole raised in her honor is “a little overwhelming.”
POULSBO — It will be a red, white and blue Veterans Day in North Kitsap schools.
All of the schools in the district are planning assemblies to celebrate Veterans Day (which is Sunday, Nov. 11), but the content of each assembly is up to the individual schools.
SUQUAMISH — Ed Barnhardt and Carol Rose hope to create some solace in Suquamish, as new owners of the Coffee Cantina.
One of the first things they did was change the name to match their vision.
KINGSTON — Little Red Riding Hood, a black cat, fairy princess and a ghoul or two were a few of the pint-sized Halloween partiers who gathered up candy by the handful.
But that wasn’t the only treat of the night at the Builder’s Club Halloween Fun House Wednesday.
POULSBO — Tiny dinosaurs mingled with bears. Peter Pan and Captain Hook shook hands and Elvis was sighted — likely not for the last time — surrounded by aliens in Poulsbo as hordes of kids from all reaches of Kitsap County hit Front Street in search of sweet treats.
Halloween night brought over two thousand children and parents to Little Norway, and some of the best costumes this side of Transylvania. Superman took off work early from the “Daily Planet” and numerous Batmen left the crime of Gotham City up to Commissioner Gordon for a chance to engage in the family-oriented fun.
After all the interviews are over, the forums adjourned, ads, flyers, yard signs, letters to the editor and newspaper endorsements appear—you, the voter decides who deserves your precious vote.
For several years, senior Navy officials and politicians have heavily promoted the plan that the four oldest Trident submarines at Subase Bangor are worthy of being converted into cruise missile or other conventional platform assets, rather than being decommissioned.
But, funding for that conversion was the sticking point, until now.
Election results for the general election will be posted to this website as they become available Tuesday, Nov. 6.
Remember to cast your ballot by mail or at the polls.
SUQUAMISH — It was time for Vicky Enriquez to have some good luck.
Enriquez, a para-educator at Suquamish Elementary, endured her share of tragedies last year. Her husband Alberto died in a car accident and a daughter died in a fire.
Enriquez, who returned to work this year after a one-year leave of absence to be with her family, came back to a small piece of luck as she won a 1991 Ford Explorer as part of a raffle held by Hope4Youth.
Enriquez bought four raffle tickets at a garage sale for $20.
TACOMA — Moments after an exhausting loss to Capital High School that ended the North Kitsap soccer team’s season, Viking head coach Teri Ishihara was doing something unexpected: she was smiling.
Ishihara, whose team had just lost in a shootout to the 8-5-1 Cougars, was proud of the Vikings’ run this year. She was also aware of one important fact: the young, speedy Vikings will graduate only two players from this year’s team.
POULSBO — Appropriately enough, it took more than the usual 40 minutes of football to decide the winner of Friday’s Poulsbo/Kingston game.
The game is always the capstone of the season for the two cross-county rivals. But this year, with each team coming into the game with a 3-2 record, it promised to be close.
POULSBO — When Coast Oyster Plant was razed into a pile of rubble along Fjord Drive, many nostalgic residents in Poulsbo recalled “better days” when the local shellfish industry boomed and families reaped the financial benefits that accompanied harvest time.
Others, however, looked to the future and envisioned small waterfront amenity which would serve generations yet to come. Poulsbo Parks and Recreation Director Mary McCluskey and the Poulsbo NK Rotary were among them — seeing more than broken oyster shells and rotten wood but an opportunity as well.
POULSBO — The eroding rock wall at Waterfront Park is shaping up as the top issue for the Port of Poulsbo Commissioner candidates as they make their final pitches before the Nov. 6 general elections. With threatened moorage at the marina and structures along the shoreline, the matter is much more than an election issue though — it’s a fullblown problem.
POULSBO — A trio of touchdowns by Vikings defensive back/receiver Reuben Scuffy wasn’t enough to collar the Cougars Thursday night.
Five candidates–three North Kitsap School board positions. Voters this year have a variety of candidates and solutions to problems to choose from.
The candidate for district five, Kingston, is Brad Camp; he is unopposed.
There are two candidates for district three, Suquamish; Bethany McDonald, the board president who is pursuing her second term on the board, and Christopher Tibbs, an Olympic college student who is pursing his first.
KINGSTON — You wouldn’t want Sam Slade to solve a crime for you. But you would certainly want him to entertain you.
Slade is the main character in the new play by Kingston Junior High drama program, “Touchtone ‘M’ for Murder.”
