Business News October 2008 Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce Your Chamber of Commerce is hard at work on a number of fronts. Downtown Winslow Parking – Due to the enforcement of a 1985 agreement between the City and the state, boat trailers have precedence in parking on Bjune Street. The city has to make at least 20 spaces available to boaters on weekends. The ruling, which has been loosely enforced over the years, will have an impact on employee and customer parking in Downtown Winslow on weekends. The Chamber, along with the City, has been visiting individual businesses explaining the ruling and offering alternatives. Those include parking in other lots, the Chamber’s gravel lot below BPA and on Wyatt Way in front of the Homestead Apartments. Meanwhile, employers and employees participating in the Chamber’s Downtown Employee Parking Program should be aware that their current passes will expire on October 31. New passes – in place from Nov. 1, 2008 to April 30, 2009 – will be issued beginning October 13. The parking program is a partnership between the Chamber and the City. Lightbulb Exchange – The Chamber’s second annual Light Bulb Exchange will take place on Saturday, October 11, from 10am - 2pm at the Bainbridge ACE Hardware. The Chamber, ACE, and Puget Sound Energy are teaming up to provide islanders with an opportunity to exchange their inefficient incandescent light bulbs for more energy efficient compact fluorescent bulbs (CFL). Must be PSE residential electric customer to qualify for all event promotions, so bring your PSE electric bill or photo ID for verification. For more info, visit www.bainbridgechamber.com. Candidates Debate - The Chamber will hold its annual Candidates Debate Forum on Wednesday October 15 at Wing Point Golf & Country Club. It will be the program for our October Luncheon. We are highlighting four races: 23rd District Representative Position 1 and Position 2; Kitsap County Auditor; and Superior Court Judge Court 1. The format will include a moderator, prepared questions from the Chamber, and questions from the audience. Cost is $15. Please RSVP at (206) 842-3700. Photos by Elizabeth Gadbois This Month: Parking, lightbulbs, Debates “Big Taste of Success” At Lynwood Headline in The Bainbridge Review Congratulations to all of the merchants in Lynwood Center who have created an amazing event that is sure to become an island tradition. With estimated attendance of 2,000 - 3,000, the first ever Taste of Lynwood was a huge success, due to the creative and diligent efforts of the event team, including Edna’s Beach Cafe, Treehouse Cafe, Walt’s Market, Lynwood Theater, Village Music, Bay Massage and Skincare, Salmon Canyon Cafe and the Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce. Also special thanks to Deanne McCulloch of John L. Scott Real Estate and Steve Brady who provided a transportation sponsorship, and volunteer coordinators Maggi Gruber and Mike Sciacca, whose indispensable efforts helped this event grow wings. The Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce was proud to be part of the event planning team and a co-sponsor of the First Annual Taste of Lynwood. A dunk tank benefiting the Boys and Girls Club featured Patick Murray, Arnie Sturham & Bill Nelson as well as beautiful Kaleigh Ritchie, who got dunked numerous times in her wet t-shirt. Vendor’s booths included Bainbridge Island Land Trust, Hyla Middle School, numerous artisans and kid’s activities. Musical entertainment permeated the streets, with Alan Simcoe and his students leading the way. Soon after followed talented local musicians, including Mazama, Get the Oxygen Tank & Lena Davis. The grand finale of the block party was Motown-inspired Soul Provider, which had the crowd dancing in the streets. After the block party, people wandered over to Walt’s Market for a wine tasting party, and others dined at Edna’s Beach Cafe, with music by Alan Simcoe. The gorgeous sunny day ended for many with a nice glass of wine and views of an amazing sunset from the Edna’s: the first Taste of Lynwood was a party many of us will remember for a long time! www.bainbridgechamber.com www.bainbridgechamber.com Chamber Calendar of Events October Luncheon Date: Wednesday, Oct. 15 Time: 11:30 a.m. Place: Wing Point Country Club Program: Candidates Debate Register & Info: 842-3700 or www.bainbridgechamber.com october After Hours Date: Thursday, Oct. 23rd Time: 5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m. Host: Kitsap Credit Union, 1050 Hildebrand Lane # 103 Bainbridge Island No Reservations Necessary, Public Welcome.

August After Hours – We want to thank Dave and Diane Beck and Charlie and Carolyn Frame for hosting the August After Hours event at the Blue Ocean Café. A wonderful buffet was provided by our hosts, including chef Charlie’s tasty barbecue treats. The new restaurant features free Belgian waffles most mornings. State of Our Schools – How are our schools doing? Thanks to new Bainbridge School Superintendent Faith Chapel and a panel of local private school educators – Trish King of The Island School, Thomas Weber of Hyla Middle School, Ben Klasky of Islandwood, and Gordon Parke of West Sound Acedemy – Chamber members learned a great deal about our schools at the September Chamber luncheon at Wing Point. Enrollment at Island School (95), Hyla (86) and West Sound (70) are above last year or holding steady, while the School District saw its enrollment dip slightly to 3,812 students. One encouraging fact is that kindergarten enrollment is up 10 percent to 242 students. As Chapel pointed out, however, our district still faces long-term funding challenges. Bainbridge Island Chamber of Commerce Chamber After Hours at Blue Ocean Business News Faith Chapel Panel of local schools October 2008 www.bainbridgechamber.com Spotlight On Business Dr. Roger Libby Liberty Bay Marina, Poulsbo, WA 98370 360-394-4568, drlibby@drrogerlibby.com www.drrogerlibby.com Dr. Roger Libby is a board-certified sex therapist and a marriage counselor/relationship therapist. He helps couples and individuals with sexual and other relationship concerns, including low and inhibited sexual desire, erection and female arousal problems, lack of orgasm, premature and retarded ejaculation, painful intercourse and vaginismus and other pelvic floor disorders. He also addresses compulsive sexual behavior (such as those who spend hours every day on porn sites and in sexual chat rooms on the Internet), as well as sexual trauma and abuse and body image and self-esteem issues. He works with clients regardless of their sexual orientation or sexual lifestyle. Dr. Libby utilizes a combination of clinical sexology, medical consultations with physicians, and cognitive behavioral therapy. He helps clients get rid of distorted thinking, and he facilitates better communication with a partner. Humor is part of his therapy. He believes that more balance in a relationship is partially achieved through healthy laughter. When there is a couple, he sees each person separately, and then he sees the couple together. This gives him more thorough information, so he knows where to put is energy to solve the problems as quickly as he can. In addition to solving basic sexual problems, Dr. Libby also is a sex coach. He helps couples reach a higher peak of mutual pleasure and intimacy by coaching or fine-tuning their lovemaking. He does this by assigning videos (he created the Better Sex videos) and by offering insights in his sessions, complete with home-play suggestions. Dr. Libby has offices in Poulsbo and at Leschi on Lake Washington in Seattle. He also writes books about sex, and he has hosted radio shows. He is in the process of developing a new radio show in Seattle, Sex Once a Week. He is also an Adjunct Professor at The Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality in San Francisco, and he speaks to a variety of medical, civic and college audiences. He has appeared on Oprah Winfrey twice, as well as The NBC Nightly News and CNN News Night. Dr. Libby may be contacted through his website, www.drrogerlibby.com, or at 360-394-4568.
