Getting looped Downtown merchants call for alternative tourism flow

By Seth Truscott Editor

When it comes to her big idea, Wendy Thomas is eager to keep things positive. That explains the hula hoops.

Thomas, as owner of Carmichael’s True Value Hardware Store, has been a presence in downtown Snoqualmie for 10 years. In that time, she’s watched the tourist traffic flowing through her neighborhood ebb with the times.

She wants to reverse that with a new tourism traffic route linking down-

town, the Ridge and Snoqualmie Casino—a loop, hence the hoop, a prop for her route argument.

The prop seems apt. Two years ago, Thomas broke out stop signs and hard hats in the spring of 2010, gathering downtown business owners for a “Stop in Snoqualmie” photo opp just prior to the Downtown Infrastructure Improvement Project that put new sidewalks and utilities in the downtown block. In the two years since, she’s pondered how else to promote her neighborhood.

This spring, Thomas began calling for the city’s official tourist-attraction signs to be moved from Interstate 90’s Exit 25 to 27.

Getting ‘loopy,’ Kim Ewing of The Black Dog cafe in Snoqualmie, and hardware store owner Wendy Thomas are among proponents of a new tourism loop through the Snoqualmie. Thomas says the idea, endorsed in an open letter by dozens of merchants, would improve business for the broader community.

PARTY

North Bend, Wash.

A 50-year-old man missing since Friday, July 6, was found dead on Green Mountain near North Bend around 2 p.m. Monday.

John Wright, of University Place, apparently fell several hundred feet off a cliff.

Wright was reported missing Friday, when he didn’t return from a hike as planned. The King County Sheriff ’s Office began a search for him when they pinged his cell phone near the Cedar River Watershed. His car was parked near the trailhead. They narrowed their search to Green Mountain after a hiker who’d met Wright on Friday told deputies he was heading to that area.

Helicopters searched over the weekend, and search and rescue personnel, using 4-by-4 and horses, travelled the trails on the mountain. They found footprints believed to be Wright’s.

Just hours before finding Wright’s body, searchers were still optimistic.

“His family is up here, and they said he’s a very experienced hiker,” said King County Sheriff ’s Sgt. Cindi West.

100year party

Family fun at Ridge’s Independence Day They pedaled, rolled, walked on two or four legs, pogo’ed or jump-kicked their way down Center Boulevard under shining summer skies.

The annual Independence Day Celebration, held Wednesday, July 4, on Snoqualmie Ridge helped the mostly young participants get into a festive spirit, beginning with the children’s and pet parade led by Mayor Matt Larson and family, followed by free children’s activities like pony rides, a petting zoo, pilotable ‘robot’ rides and a teen alley at Community Park.

“This is our biggest outreach to the community,” said Stacy Caiarelli Brown, events manager for the Snoqualmie Ridge Residential Owners’ Association, organizers of the event.

All proceeds from the ROA Fourth of July event are donated to the Mount Si Helping Hand Food Bank in North Bend. Learn more about ROA at www.ridgeroa.com.

Family fun comes fast at Carnation Fourth

Fix coming for Pickett, Boalch In anticipation of an extra $400,000 in annual sales tax revenue, the North Bend City Council has committed to rebuilding stretches of two of the city’s worst streets.

In a 4-2 vote at its June 5 meeting, the council authorized the sale of up to $1,430,000 in bonds for the reconstruction of Pickett Avenue between Northeast Sixth Street to Northeast Twelfth Street, and Boalch Avenue reconstruction. These two projects, estimated to cost $690,000 and $625,000 respectively, are the highest priorities listed on the city’s six-year Transportation Improvement Plan.

The families gathering from as far as Issquah, Monroe, and Seattle were pretty good proof that the Carnation Fourth of July celebration is all about family fun, but the three-onthree basketball tournament was the clincher.

Partway through the Pit Bulls vs. Fat and Bald game in the adult division, the teams called time-out, and 7-yearold Conner Montoya subbed in for his Dad, Harley Willett.

He was about a third the size of most of his opponents— Fat and Bald subbed in one of their sons, too—but with his 16 year-old brothers Skyler and Collen, he was fearless, handling the ball, dribbling, passing, shooting, and yes, going up for the rebound.

“It’s a family Fourth,” Willett, a Carnation resident, explained, “so he gets to play too, right?”

Everybody got to play at Carnation’s annual extravaganza, from the kids on their bouncy toys to the Moms high-stepping with the West Coast Country Heat dancers during a brief lesson after the parade, to the Dads (and kids, moms, grandpas and grandmas) taking in the sights and sounds of the Hot Rods and Harleys show.

We believe every child should be treated the way we would like our own children to be treated.

It is our goal to implement the highest standard of care at every patient encounter whether it is a child’s first visit to the dental office, a teenager who is headed off to college or a special-needs adult patient we’ve been seeing for decades.

Valley Record SNOQUALMIE

Downtown’s potential W

endy Thomas kept telling me that she didn’t want to relive the past. Specifically, she didn’t want to keep reopening old wounds—the ten years of missed opportunities that she and fellow downtown merchants experienced when Snoqualmie’s main tourist route changed from Highway 202 to the Snoqualmie Parkway. Ever since, she and other merchants have described a changed neighborhood, where, at its most extreme, fewer than half of the number of visitors stopped and shopped.

I never knew that the downtown had seen such changes, as I’m a relative newcomer here. But I’ve had some time to think about Thomas’ views over the last few weeks, and it strikes me that what happened to Snoqualmie is something of a miniature version of what happened to North Bend when the bypass came.

So Thomas’ idea is akin to a downtown renewal.

Recently, I wrote that the Valley needs some creative, consensual thinking when it comes to taking full advantage of tourism. Wendy’s loop idea is just that.

With her dozens of signatures of local merchants and residents, both downtown and Ridge, because it shows how people who might normally compete are seeking to pull in the same direction.

There’s potential here. In the best case, all Snoqualmie merchants, Ridge and downtown, succeed, and the wealth gets Seth Truscott spread. At worst, things stay the Valley Record Editor same. Maybe a sign-led driving loop is an anachronism in today’s smart-phone powered world, but consideration of it—and a community conversation on the best ways to promote and capitalize on our natural, tourist resources—is a step in the right direction. Thomas is already thinking about linking with North Bend, and then, Fall City. She’s ready to put the past behind her, and can’t wait for a brighter, busier future for everyone. Hear, hear.

Doing up the schedule this week, I’ll admit I was surprised to see that a lot of my North Bend Block Party favorites were missing in 2012.

The annual Strongman Competition, the pet events, the skateboard contest, George’s Bakery’s donut eating contest, and even Twede’s Cafe’s big, messy burger eating contest—scene of a food fight last year—were out.

But the block party itself continues on, with some new ideas, like Destiny by Design’s makeover reveal, or Boxley’s Future Jazz Heads student performers. Kyle Twede is retooling the beloved eating contest with a new idea: Hot chicken wings. Even if events change, the fun will continue and the crowds will still come. That’s what’s important.

Block parties began three years ago as a way for North Bend to celebrate its centennial, making sure to include local merchants in the fun. Even though North Bend now has not one but two summer festivals, I still believe the block party is a grand idea that deserves support, just like most other Valley festivals. So, at the Record, I and fellow staff back that talk with pullout sections in our editions, doing our part to promote these events.

Why does the Block Party, or Fall City Days, or Railroad Days, deserve our support? Because it brings out the best in our communities, and helps our local merchants succeed. Every time I attend one of these events, I hear how people get to meet neighbors they otherwise rarely meet. They celebrate local talent, from artists to dancing kids, and learn about good causes like Relay for Life or the Snoqualmie Valley Veteran’s Memorial, or about local businesses, big and small.

Events like these are about more than just helping kids beat the summer boredom. They’ll always be held in towns like these, because they always build community.

I’ll see you at the North Bend Block Party this Saturday.

Representatives from the Army Corps of Engineers were here last week to update citizens on a proposed river-widening project, which could be done by 1993, they estimated.

The project would widen 1,000 feet of river channel, but destroy 63 acres of wildlife habitat at a cost of $5 million. It would also reduce the flood stage in Snoqualmie by two to three feet, while increasing flood levels downstream by two inches in Carnation.

Let’s get looped

Prior to 2003, Snoqualmie Falls visitors—those traveling westbound on Interstate 90—took exit 27, also known as Highway 10, now North Bend Way, turning down Meadowbrook Way and continuing to Railroad Avenue and Highway 202.

This meant many visitors drove through downtown Snoqualmie, often stopping for a meal, to shop or have a look around. This traffic pattern was very important to the vitality of this small town. When the Snoqualmie Parkway was built, it became the most direct route.

Signs went up at exit 25 to direct travelers to use this route, three tenths of a mile shorter. This had the effect of bypassing downtown.

Over the years, there has been much discussion regarding the revitalization of downtown, and how to encourage the many Snoqualmie Falls visitors (two million or so annually) to make their way there.

Beautiful streetscape improvements were financed, designed and constructed. Signage has been placed on I-90 indicating the Historic Downtown and the Northwest Railway Museum are to be reached via the Snoqualmie Parkway. Follow-on signs direct travelers how to reach these attractions. Unfortunately, but maybe not so surprisingly, after visiting Snoqualmie Falls, drivers generally return to I-90 via the Parkway—the “Look and Leave” route, so to speak.

They say “a picture is worth a thousand words.” Might it also be worth a thousand directional signs? They say “seeing is believing.”

Might folks believe they’d like a longer visit or future return trip? They say “show me the money.” Might this be worth thousands, or more, in tourism dollars? By traveling those extra three-tenths of a mile, visitors will have the chance to see so much more of what Snoqualmie has to offer them, not just its charming historic downtown. They need an opportunity to see the amazing amount of public, nonprofit and private time, effort and money that has been invested in this place, not to mention the amazingly scenic surroundings.

So, let’s make the trip! Envision if you will a loop route starting at Exit 27 and returning over the Snoqualmie Parkway. As visitors exit on 27, they can take in a stunning viewpoint and hiking trail at Snoqualmie Point Park. As they continue down North Bend Way, they will see the Snoqualmie Casino. A new roundabout at the intersection of North Bend Way and Meadowbrook Way serves as an attractive gateway as well as the solution to a difficult intersection.

Signs at the intersection of Meadowbrook Way and Railroad Avenue would indicate that just ahead is another golf course (Mount Si), an award-winning park (Centennial Field), an amazing dog park and natural area (Three Forks Park), and access to the Snoqualmie Valley Trail, Snoqualmie River and Meadowbrook Farm. As visitors turn and travel along Railroad Avenue, they see the new streetscape in the Historic Downtown, the beautiful Visitor’s Center/Chamber of Commerce building, the National Register-listed Railroad Depot, Northwest Railway Museum, Railroad Park, Sandy Cove Park and the Centennial Interpretive Trail. They can visit the Falls and then return through Snoqualmie Ridge, perhaps stopping to shop or for a bite to eat before returning home.

There is so much to see and do in this beautiful place! People just need to be shown that it’s here waiting for them. Let’s share ourselves and our love for this wonderful place with them. A loop route will make sure they don’t miss out (and neither does Snoqualmie).

Course helped junior golfers I just wanted to mention what a great job was done at Twin Rivers Golf Course on Monday, July 2, for a Washington Junior Golf Association event. Thanks go out to Richard Rutledge, owner, for hosting our event and letting us use the course for most of the day. Doug Rutledge and his grounds crew went over and above to make the course very enjoyable for 152 kids that day. Kudos to Curt Roddewig and the entire staff in the clubhouse and snack bar for all their help. Without courses like Twin Rivers, and the many volunteers that help make these events happen, WJGA could not be such a great organization.

North Bend Way and Meadowbrook Way would become the gateway to Snoqualmie for interstate drivers, who would be directed to leave via Snoqualmie Ridge and Exit 25.

“Traffic is an asset,” says Thomas. “If you bring them in by 25, they leave by 25. They never get to downtown.

“You’re not showing them the eye candy—all the wonderful things we have here,” she added. “You’ve got to show them! You’re not utilizing that traffic to its highest and best use: to expose the most amount of your city.”

Thomas has authored an open letter, “Let’s get Looped,” signed by 30 merchants, property owners and residents, mostly from downtown but including several from the Ridge, making the case for a new tourism loop route (read it on page 5). She’s shown it to Snoqualmie’s seven-member Economic Development Commission and the Ridge Merchants Association, and presented it to the city.

It’s now up for discussion by the city council’s Community and Economic Affairs Committee.

“This is potentially a feel-good moment for the town,” Thomas said.

The way it used to be Thomas remembers when the Snoqualmie Parkway became the de facto gateway for visitors to Snoqualmie Falls, circa 2003.

“It was a huge change,” she said.

Harold Nesland, owner of Sahara Pizza and Adventure Bowl, agrees.

“This town has been good to me,” Nesland says. But he remembers a much busier time for his business, and those of his neighbors.

Before the visitor route changed, “On Saturdays and Sundays, this road used to stop,” said Nesland, gesturing to Railroad Avenue.

“There were so many people.” Every parking stall was full, he recalled.

“The second they re-routed that… One day there was traffic, the next there wasn’t…. Just like a light switch,” he said. “I used to have people ask me where the Falls was. Nobody does that any more.”

The city’s blue direction-finding signs, he says, don’t do the downtown justice.

“You’ve got to get the traffic back,” he said.

Nesland said his sales more than halved following the re-route. He had 24 employees in Snoqualmie then, 14 now.

To Nesland, traffic could mean more jobs and a better community presence for his business.

“When I do better, I spread the wealth,” he said. “I sponsor teams, I give more pizza to DECA. I’m more active in the community.” His employees, in turn, would be spending money locally.

“If I was doing 60 percent more, my building would look different. I would remodel,” Nesland said. “Most of these businesses would have the money to make tenant improvements.”

To Nesland and Thomas, it’s a matter of appealing to tourists.

“Do you want them to stay for six hours, or 15 minutes?” asked Nesland.

“You’ve got ‘look and leave,’ or you’ve got the loop,” Thomas added.

There’s no question that a loop route would be positive for downtown, said Wes Sorstokke, owner of Snoqualmie Falls Candy Factory.

“I’m for it. I signed the letter,” Sorstokke said. “It would definitely help us. I’m not sure it would hurt anyone else.”

Thomas said she’s been pondering the idea of a loop route for a few years.

“I don’t know why I didn’t think of it a bit sooner,” the hardware store owner said. “Probably because I sell plungers.”

Thomas says she recognizes that growing downtown’s economic vitality is a longtime city objective.

“Maybe it’s as simple as ‘Drive people through downtown,” she said.

Direction finding

In a statement, Snoqualmie Mayor Matt Larson said the city would like to see Snoqualmie’s wider business community work together on marketing that would increase traffic flow through every district.

“Therefore, we appreciate the efforts of those business owners who are attempting to create a community conversation that would ultimately benefit all of them,” Larson said. “As the City, we are intent on serving all districts equally, and of course interested in ensuring that visitors to the area find the most convenient ways into and out of our city so as not to frustrate them and possibly prevent them from returning.”

Snoqualmie Valley Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Kevin Dwyer told the Record that the loop sounds like a good idea.

One challenge could be state highway division approval.

FALL CITY LIQUOR STORE

“We’re living in an age when people are using… their iPhone, Google Maps, Mapquest,” he said. Digital directions could complicate things.

But “the concept of having a loop makes some sense to get exposure for our great tourism assets,” Dwyer said.

The chamber applied for $6,500 in Lodging Tax Advisory Committee grant funds to put a manned visitor kiosk at Snoqualmie Falls. There, a docent would direct visitors to attractions in the wider Valley.

“We think that’s going to help with some of her concerns,” Dwyer said of Thomas.

The future of jazz

Providing help for all-new looks in a makeover reveal at the North Bend Block Party, Destiny by Design staff are, from left, back row, Susan Duin, Lizzie Purser, Suzanne Peterson, front, Wendy McKelvey, Sherry Saucedo, Kathy McMeins, Jessie Littlejohn, Shandra McNulty.

For years, North Bend’s Boxley’s Place has helped young musicians hone their skills in front of a live audience. For the first time, Boxley’s owner Danny Kolke is bringing that Future Jazz Heads program to the streets, with a set of the Valley’s best up-and-coming young jazz musicians playing alongside local pros and legends during the North Bend Block Party.

The Future Jazz Heads All Stars play at 3 p.m. on the Main Stage.

During Future Jazz Heads, held most Tuesday evenings at 7 p.m. at Boxleys, students from local middle schools and Mount Si High School play in front of a live audience, often alongside pros.

“It makes it more real for them,” Kolke said.

Students get tips and pointers between songs, boost their confidence and build their love of jazz. The evenings cover everything from jazz standards to more challenging compositions.

Every so often, Boxleys brings in an entire school’s worth of musicians for a special performance.

The All Star pros slated to come to the block party include local bassist Chris Clark, Cascade Jazz Trio drummer Brian Gmerek and local pianist and drummer Reuel Lubag.

They’ll work alongside up-and-coming student musicians such as Matt Bumgardner, Hayden Kajer-Cline, Aaron Tevis, Quinton Cook, Michelle John and Cole Van Gerpen.

“These kids have been doing so much,” Kolke said. “It’s great for them to be part of the Block Party.”

Far from going silent, jazz music is growing in stature in the Northwest, especially in award-winning regional schools, including those in the Snoqualmie Valley.

“Jazz is one of the most original American art forms that we have,” Kolke says. “Jazz evolved out of American history.”

In the Northwest, many jazz musicians find themselves as educators.

“They take their love of the music with them,” Kolke said. “If teachers are passionate, kids catch on.”

Time for a change North Bend’s Destiny by Design salon brings makeover reveal, calendar promotion to Community Stage

649131

Kelly was ready for a big change. With her baby grasping for her long, curly blonde hair, the new mom decided she was ready for a short, dramatic cut.

“She surprised me,” said her hairstylist, Suzanne Peterson.

“She’s a very beautiful woman.” Peterson already knows she can pull off the cool new cut.

Kelly is one of a half-dozen locals, mostly women but also a few men and kids, taking part in Destiny by Design

Salon’s Makeover Reveal, planned for 7:15 p.m. Saturday on the Community Stage.

The reveal, which shows the results of dramatic makeovers by the Destiny by Design staff, is part of a promotion benefiting the Mount Si Food Bank that includes a calendar to be released this autumn. North Bend photographer Mary Miller is documenting the transformation, and more makeovers may follow for the Festival at Mount Si. The models were considering changes, but in several cases, it took a good cause to convince them to make the big step, said Sherry Saucedo, owner of Destiny by Design.

“They just needed our push to do it,” Saucedo said.

Her staff are doing haircuts, colors, makeup and waxing.

A merchant donated clothing for the makeovers.

For the stylists, the makeover gives a chance to explore their creativity and showcase skills..

Saucedo has operated Destiny by Design for 19 years.

She loves her line of work. The beauty industry is cyclical but ever-changing. Today, she finds the styles of the 1980s are coming back.

• Destiny by Design Salon is located at 249 Main Ave. South, North Bend.

are well-rounded, bright individuals and we believe that the skills they learn in dance contribute to that!”

With selections on two stages, watch youth dancers leap, spin and shimmy in North Bend Block Party performances Saturday.

Cascade Dance Performing at 12:45 p.m. on the Community Stage, Cascade Dance Company brings a selection of musical theatre dances including “Ease on Down the Road” and “Forget About the Boy.” “These pieces allow our students to practice their acting skills in conjunction with dance,” said Cascade’s Kelsey Jamieson Ruth.

“They’re fun, high-energy numbers that get a crowd pumped up.

“We believe dance, and performance opportunities like North Bend Block Party, are great tools for developing our youths’ confidence, teamwork, and ability to self-express,” Ruth added. “We’re very proud of how much our company dancers have accomplished not only in their dance lives, but in their personal lives as well.

Mount Si Gymnastics The competitive gymnastics team from Mount Si Gymnastics Academy and Dance Studio, ranging in age from 5 to 13, brings a demonstration of their progressions when they perform at 3 p.m. on the Community Stage. They’ll also do a choreographed routine to music.

According to owner Amy Norton, gymnastic skills naturally develop strength, balance, flexibility, coordination and confidence.

“Gymnastics lessons equip children with fundamental movement skills that allows the child to pursue other activities or sports, be it soccer, volleyball or even P.E. in school,” Norton told the Record. “Children who are skilled movers even do better academically. Young children who participate in gymnastics also establish exercise as a daily need or lifestyle.”

IGNITE competition team Members of the IGNITE Dance Competition Team will perform at 4 p.m. on the Main Stage.

This group of dancers travel to regional and national level competitions throughout the year, so the block party is a great opportunity for the dancers to perform locally for their community, instructor Katie Black says. IGNITE team dancers rarely pass up a chance to be onstage—every moment helps prepare them for their future, no matter what they pursue.

“Our hope is that the audience is truly moved by each performance, and witness how hard work and dedication really pay off,” she told the Record. “IGNITE is all about community, so we were more than happy to be a major sponsor of the Block Party this year. We feel blessed to be a healthy place for families to connect and ignite their passion.”

Saturday’s musical line-up on the Community Stage of the North Bend Block Party is widely varied, showcasing western and MiddleEastern dance, gymnastics, line dancing and more throughout the day. One act in particular, though, demonstrates real versatility.

The Snoqualmie Strings youth orchestra, playing their final scheduled performance of the summer, will blend their traditional symphonic fare with folk music, movie themes, and a patriotic tune, too.

“We’ve added ‘The Stars and Stripes Forever’ this year,” says orchestra director Sheila Bateman.

The small group, comprised of whoever among the sudents, age 6 to 18, is available for the performance Saturday, will perform some of their “summer songs,” a core body of music that students are responsible for learning and practicing throughout the year, but especially during the summer.

“We don’t get together throughout the summer, except maybe a rehearsal,” Bateman said, but after their final concert in May, “We spend the rest of the school year refreshing our summer songs,” she said.

Most of the musicians play violin, which Bateman described as “more of a virtuoso instrument. It’s the kind of instrument people write solos for.” However, a lot of the students are virtuosos in that they play multiple instruments.

“In May, we did ‘The Carnival of the Animals,’ which has a lot of piano, and it just so happened that one of our violinists’ first instrument was piano,” Bateman said. The violinist put down his bow for the piece and took up the keyboard to give a wonderful performance.

The Snoqualmie Strings are scheduled for 4:30 p.m. Saturday, and Bateman hopes they’ll be able to play their full songlist, which includes the 1812 Overture, Cindy, I Love to See the Temple, Old Joe Clark, and the Mission Impossible theme.

Twede’s Cafe owner Kyle Twede introduces spicy chicken gobbling contest to Block Party

By Carol Ladwig

W

Animals and amazing reptiles Scott Peterson, the Northwest’s own Reptile Man, presents his fascinating animals, 5 to 6 p.m. on the Block Party’s community stage.

Peterson runs the Washington Serpentarium just outside of Monroe. He has the biggest collection of reptiles in the Northwest, including the world’s ten deadliest snakes.

He’s a frequent presenter at regional schools and libraries, where he shows off interesting creatures such as desert tortoises and albino snakes.

He works to create an interest in the natural sciences and teach students about the importance of all animals in the balance of nature.

ithout a strong man contest, how can the toughest of the tough show their stuff? In the Twede’s Cafe hot wing challenge, of course.

Participants in this year’s eating contest at the North Bend Block Party will have to exhibit a different kind of strength, as they eat six hot wings, brushed with fiery sauces and served one at a time. It may only be six wings, but “they start off hot, and go to the hottest,” said Twede’s waittress Brandy Haave.

In just six wings, contestants will sample hot sauces ranging from 47 times hotter than regular Tabasco sauce, to 4,782 times hotter, or about 4 million Scoville heat units. For perspective, Tabasco has about 2,500 units on the Scoville scale, and jalapenos, about 5,000.

“It’s a nasty thing, I did it myself,” said restaurant owner Kyle Twede. “It was easy the first time, so I got some hotter sauces.”

Twede said he chose the hot wings contest this year instead of the giant burger-eating contest he’s sponsored in the past, for a couple of reasons. Last year’s unfortunate ketchup-squirting of the crowd was part of it, but the restaurant is also adding the challenge to its regular menu, with some reservations.

“We tell all the waitresses to plead with the customers not to do the challenge,” Twede said, but those who are determined, like contestants at the block party, will have to sign a waiver. They then have 30 minutes to consume all of the wings. If they don’t complete the challenge, they’ll have to pay for their meal.

However, “If you do it, you get a big glass of milk and a free T-shirt,” Twede said. You’ll also get to add your name to the “fire walk” plaque, a tie-in to the Twin

Iced water, fish oil, or candle wax: These “cures,” wrong, partially right, or inspired by Homer Simpson, are all recommended to those brave souls heading into a hot wing challenge, like the one Twede’s Cafe is hosting for the North Bend Block Party.

Some of them may even work, either to defer the burning sensation until after the contest, or to lessen it afterward, but the tried-and-true cures all have delved into the science of spicy food.

Most hot foods get their zing from capsaicin, a chemical compound produced in chili peppers, which the Scoville scale ranks as the hottest with 16 million heat units (www.scovillescaleforpeppers.com). Capsaicin dissolves in fat or alcohol, but not in water, so the best ways to quench the fire of spicy foods are: • Milk, yogurt, ice cream, anything with dairy fat molecules that bind to the capsaicin; • Beer, wine, or other alcohol, which dissipate the compounds, but don’t stop them entirely; • White bread, crackers and other simple starches which absorb the compounds; • Acidic foods like tomato juice or lemon wedges; or • Sugary foods and drinks.

The worst things to do when your mouth is on fire are: • Drinking water, which just spreads the compound throughout your mouth; • Drinking or eating anything hot, either in temperature or in spiciness; • Letting the food touch any part of your lips or nose; • Touching ANY part of your body during or after the contest, unless you’ve thoroughly washed your hands.

Rock around the block Local music fans need look no farther than North Bend Way to find two different stages playing host to a bevy of local bands, singers and dance acts.

Regional rock outfits, jazz groups, cover bands and singersongwriters from the Snoqualmie Valley will appear on the Main Stage, on Main Street across from Cook Real Estate, while local talent also appears on the Community Stage, located on Bendigo Boulevard.

Kellee Bradley Playing the Main Stage at noon, Northwest singer-songwriter Kellee Bradley has been compared to Aimee Mann and Sheryl Crow, yet she has a sound all her own. She’s opened for major national acts, and with three albums under her belt, she’s become a seasoned professional and is a fixture in the Seattle music scene.

Deeply involved in music as a child, Kellee Bradley Kellee found her way back to music after she returned to the Northwest. When her daughter was 4, she realized she needed something more if she was going to be a good parent. She needed to feed her soul and give back to herself.

She picked up the guitar again and started writing. One thing led to another, and she released her first album. Learn more about Bradley’s music at www.kelleebradley.com.

Jessica Oliver Next, at 1 p.m. on the Main Stage is North Bend’s own Jessica Oliver. The acoustic, folk and pop performer is a 2007 Mount Si High School graduate. Oliver, who attends Northwest University, has added piano playing to her routine and plays guitar, continuing to hone her solo act.

“I like singing soulful stuff,” such as Adele, Sara Bareilles and Annie Lennox, she said.

Jessica Oliver “I have one more year of school left and I’m excited to see what the future holds,” Oliver tells the Record. “I really hope to captivate my audience and stir up inspiration as they listen. I’m thankful for the support I have and grateful to have the opportunity to share my music with others.”

Learn about her music at www.myspace.com/oliverjess#!.

You can hear her songs and watch videos online on YouTube.

Dorian Blu

Issaquah-based band Dorian Blu plays a high energy blend of modern and classic rock, 2 p.m. on the main stage.

The band enjoys challenging and surprising songs that an audience would still recognize and dig.

Dorian Blu traverses from classic rock like The Doors or The Knack to blues and jazzy numbers like Van Morrison, to epic Pink Floyd numbers—think “Shine on, Crazy

Playing the main stage at 4 p.m., and backed by the Kolke Jazz Trio, jazz vocalist and North Bend resident Kelly Eisenhour been a regular headliner at North Bend’s Boxley’s Place since it opened in October of 2009. A professional singer and educator, Eisenhour recently joined a vocal jazz group called Groove For Thought, a Seattle-based group of 7 singers who were featured on quite a few episodes of the NBC show “The Sing Off ” in its second season “I love working with Danny Kolke and the guys,” Eisenhour told the Record. “They are fantastic musicians with a great sense of humor—always a good combination!

The music is fun, and last year, I watched people singing along and moving their bodies back and forth to the groove.

“I look forward to doing the Block Party again this year,” she added. “It’s a very friendly group of people who attend and I really enjoyed it last year.”

Diamond.” The band has played at the block party, The Festival at Mount Si, and other Eastside venues.

“We like to do songs that people recognize but might not expect a cover band to do, songs that require more finesse and technique,” said band member Charles McCrone. “We try to avoid a lot of the more over-done, super-familiar cover band material. We also love variety, so we’ll do a Muse song, then a Lynyrd Skynryd song, then a U2 song, then an Evanescence song all in the same set.”

“With a seven-person lineup, we also try to capture more of the guitar harmonies, vocal harmonies, percussion work, and other finer details of familiar music. We want to transport the listener into the original style and vibe of each song,” McCrone added.

Juvenile scuffle: At 7:25 p.m., police were called to a disturbance in the 500 block of East North Bend Way, where several boys were riding their bikes over some jumps. One boy reportedly tried to ride his bicycle narrowly past a group when another boy stood up and confronted him. In a struggle, one of the boys fell and broke his ankle.

Fireworks, fireworks and more fireworks: At 5:42 p.m., an officer saw someone throw a lit M80 firework from a moving vehicle at the North Bend Way and Interstate-90 intersection. Police responded to fireworks complaints from late the evening of June 30, through nearly 4 a.m. Thursday, July 5.

Wednesday, July 4 On the run: At 6:46 p.m., a motel employee in the 43200 block of Southeast North Bend Way called police after hearing a loud argument coming from one of the rooms. Police responded and found the door of the room wide open and no one inside. The occupant had apparently jumped out through the bathroom window and run off when police arrived.
