What is it like for people of color to live on Bainbridge? What is race equity? And, how do we create a community where all feel a sense of belonging and inclusion? The Bainbridge City Council is setting up a Race Equity Task Force to explore these issues, and you could join. In this podcast, BCB host Christina Hulet sits down with Sal DeRosalia of CrossFit gym, Erin Phillips of We Live Here Too, City Councilmember Matt Tirman and Karen Vargas, Co-Chair of the Multicultural Advisory Council to discuss these complex questions -- questions that the city's newly formed Race Equity Task Force will consider when it convenes in February. The City Council approved a motion during the December 4 Study Session to form a Race Equity Task Force to provide advice and counsel to the Council to ensure that Bainbridge Island serves as an open and welcoming community for all. The City is seeking seven volunteers to serve on the Task Force, which will meet once a month at City Hall. The day and time of the meetings will be decided at a future date. Councilmembers Matt Tirman, Rasham Nassar and Joe Deets will also serve on the Task Force. If you're interested in serving on the Race Equity Task Force, applications can be found on the City's website, and must be submitted by 4 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 25. Task Force interviews will take place Jan. 28 – Jan. 31.  More information on the Race Equity Task Force and how to apply is available on the city's website: visit https://www.bainbridgewa.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=548  to learn more.

In an inspiring example of community collaboration, the Battle Point Astronomical Association and Bainbridge Artisan Resource Network are teaming up to upgrade the BPAA telescopes and functionality. In December of 2017 the Bainbridge City Council, acting on the recommendations of the Cultural Funding Advisory Committee, awarded a grant of $20,000 to be used to repair and restore the Edwin Ritchie telescope, which is the largest telescope in Washington State and one of the very few publicly accessible telescopes in the Pacific Northwest. Using the skills and resources of the BARN facilities and volunteers, the main telescope will be retrofitted, the numerous smaller donated telescopes will be repaired as needed and made available to the public, repairs will be made to the observatory's leaky roof, cabinetry and furnishings will be provided to house and support educational activities, and video equipment will be developed to make it possible to transmit images from the telescope via the internet. Listen here as BCB host Sonia Scaer talks with BARN's Peter Moseley and BPAA's Stephen Ruhl about their plans for the collaboration and the learning and volunteer opportunities involved. To learn more about the project or to volunteer, contact Stephen Ruhl at president@bpastro.org or Peter Moseley at metal.lead@bainbridgebarn.org.

Community has always been a passion for BCB founder Barry Peters, who with his wife, Channie, will be leaving Bainbridge Island this fall to join their daughter and grandchildren in Denver, Colorado. It was that passion for Community that drove Peters, who moved to Bainbridge Island in 2001, to help found Sustainable Bainbridge in 2005, and to serve on the Bainbridge City Council from 2008 to 2011. But this podcast is about his years with Bainbridge Community Broadcasting, which he founded in May of 2014 specifically to help build community. BCB is the first community-focused podcasting organization in the country, and since its inception Barry has been responsible for establishing and equipping the necessary recording studios; setting up the web presence, hosting over 100 podcast interviews, and recruiting and managing additional volunteers who have collectively hosted over 575 community podcasts.  All of those podcasts have been focused on the people, organizations, issues and events of our local Bainbridge Island community. But who is Barry Peters? In this podcast BCB Tastes of Bainbridge producer Bob Ross interviews Barry to learn more about what led him to BCB -- and Bainbridge -- in the first place. Listen here and learn about Barry's early years in radio, the surprising decision he made on his first date with Channie -- who is BCB's most prolific podcast host -- and his hopes for the future, both for BCB and its new BARN family, and for his own adventures as an active grandparent of two irresistible granddaughters.  As Barry says in his interview, "It's a terribly poignant and difficult time for us to leave so many friends and so much that has been meaningful for us in our life here on Bainbridge, but the magnet of grandchildren is very powerful!" Though we here at BCB can understand the choice that Barry and Channie have made, we will definitely miss them, and wish them all the best in their new adventures.

In this 25-minute podcast conversation, Hilary Franz looks back to her favorite community accomplishments during her four years of service on the Bainbridge City Council, from 2008-11. She tells about the farm on the north end of the Island that attracted her to move here in 2000. And there's a story about sheep and roosters. She explains that, even though her years on City Council were burdened by the severe national recession and a collapse of the local economy and local government funding, it was also a time of innovation and working for shared island values. She discusses favorite memories of those years such as: improving the Winslow downtown by repairing the pipes of Winslow Way, widening sidewalks and creating bike lanes; protecting the harbor and Puget Sound from stormwater runoff; honoring the historic home in Eagle Harbor for the liveaboard community; creating incentives for greener building and more affordable housing; updating the zoning code to preserve local farming; taking action to resist climate change by working on home energy audits and energy efficiency refits; innovating with a public-private partnership to put solar panels on the City Hall roof; and looking for projects to allow community members and local government to be more effective together.
