Hernandez teaches all of his students to respect one another and their elders, and it shows. He said teach- ers in the school often tell him that a student's behav- ior improves markedly after participating in NJROTC. "They always get com- pliments for their courtesy and politeness," he said. Hernandez said he teach- es students about respect and how it is both given and earned. "You can't get respect unless you give it," he said. "An adult can stamp their foot on the deck and say 'I want respect,' but it's an- other thing to earn it. It's worked for me for 12 years." Students also learn about leadership in Her- nandez' class. After their first year in the class, many students become squad leaders, he said, and are in charge of groups of their peers. Stu- dents in NJROTC are all members of a Naval science class at the school. While Hernandez is bringing positive attention to Shelton's NJROTC pro- gram through his award, the group faces an uncer- tain future. With dwindling recruit- ment numbers, the Shel- ton NJROTC was notified this summer that the Navy planned to disestablish, or disband, the Shelton unit. While the NJROTC now has the required 100 mem- bers, it might still be bro- ken up at the end of June 2013. Hernandez said he and others involved in the pro- gram are focused on the present and having the best NJROTC group they can. "My concentration right now is to make sure I pro- vide positive energy," he said. "The community's re- ally shown a lot of support. You do the best you can daily." And the NJROTC is do- ing the best it can. On Nov. 17, the NJROTC Color Guard took first place in a drill team competition at South Kitsap High School. Each day, NJROTC mem- bers show up at the school at 6:30 a.m. to practice drills. "That's motivation," Her- nandez said. 360-426-,2600i Page B-6 - Shelton-Mason County Journal- Thursday, Dec. 6, 2012 Harstine Continued from page B-1 across time and space. Mark your calendar now to attend this joyous con- cert. Shows will be at 7 p.m. on Dec. 14 at the Shelton United Method- ist Church; 3 p.m. on Dec. 15 at St Hugh Episcopal Church in Allyn; and 3 p.m. on Dec. 16 at the Harstine Island Commu- nity Hall. There will be only one LaJune Senior Lunch this month and that will be Dec. 12. They will be serving pulled pork with mashed potatoes and pork gravy along with green salad, buns and bread pudding. All residents old- er than 50 are invited. The doors open at noon, but be advised to get there a lit- tle early because the com- munity hall fills up fast. One hundred twenty family, friends and neighbors celebrated Thanksgiving 2012 in that special fashion that only the Harstine Island Hall could provide. Five roasted turkeys, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gra- ~T were accompanied by a myriad potluck dishes, such that no one could leave the table without grand portions of their holiday favorites. Hosts Linda and Mike Benson, Ruth and Jim Irish and Lynn Fish wish to express their gratitude to the kitchen help, including Anne, Barbara, Pamela, Whickey and to the Ben- son and Irish families for their special contribu- tions. Volunteers in the Harst- ine Island Community Club are again putting to- gether a New Year's Buf- fet and Dance. It will be Dec. 31 and it will be in the community hall. The buffet will run from 8-11 p.m. and there will be mu- sic played from 8 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. And that music will be played by Swing Fever and their big band sound. If you haven't danced in the new year with this group, you have missed out -- they are terrific. Advance tickets are $20 a person and at the door they will be $25. This is a BYOB event. Tickets can be bought from Bill Shoaf 670-9645 or at the Fresh Start Dell.
