The sparkle effect Everybody learns in first-ever Mount Si developmental cheer partnership
King County will return former golf course to farming
BY SETH TRUSCOTT Editor
BY CAROL LADWIG Staff Reporter
A proposed 18-home development near Fall City was stopped recently, by the sale of the 191-acre site. King County recently purchased the former Tall Chiefs Golf Course, and intends to restore much of the land to the county’s Agricultural Production District.

As schools close down for the holidays, two groups of employees in the Snoqualmie Valley School District are still at work under the terms of expired contracts. Both the Public School Employees (PSE) and the Snoqualmie Valley Administrative Secretaries Association (SVASA) unions have been in negotiations with the district bargaining team off and on since last spring.

Partners on the Mount Si Sparkle Effect team, cheerleaders Avery Dahline, Amanda Antoch and Hailey Weed support Eve Clemens as she learns to be a flyer in a human pyramid. In its first year at Mount Si High School, the Sparkle Effect mixes children with developmental disabilities with a group of committed cheerleaders, as a competitive cheer squad where every participant discovers something new.

“Mac!” calls Kaitlyn Rogers. “You did a good job today,” the Mount Si freshman tells her cheer teammate. Mac responds with a smile, and a thumbs’ up sign. As she speaks, Rogers is also communicating with the gestures of American Sign Language. Her sign language textbook sits on the table nearby. “I’m a visual learner,” says Rogers. Mac, 16, has global development delay, and doesn’t speak. “If he can see a connection with hand motions and what I’m saying, it’ll better connect, and get the point across.” There is learning happening for everybody in this room. Today, just like every Tuesday evening, is cheer practice for Mount Si’s Sparkle Effect team. Newly formed at the start of this school year, Sparkle Effect mixes young people with developmental disabilities with typical cheerleaders. Except, the case could be made that nobody’s typical in this room, and that some exceptional things are happening. Take Rogers. She wasn’t asked to learn sign language. “I’m doing it because I love to learn,” she said. She sees the benefits in learning to work with other people who aren’t exactly like her.
What is Sparkle? Snoqualmie resident Marci Nicholson is the advisor for this new program, sharing coaching duties with her sister, Mount Si head cheer coach Jessii Stevens. SEE SPARKLE, 3

The spirit of Christmas
necessary to purchase toys for her boxes. Julia said her least favorite job was scooping dog poop. “She would come to me in March when it was pouring down rain, asking for any job she could do to make money for shoeboxes,” said Sandy. “Making 50 boxes for an 11-year-old kid doesn’t just happen. Month after month, week after week, I watched her do odd jobs and save her money to make her boxes.” These weren’t just any boxes. Every box Julia packed, she packed to the point of popping open with all kinds of Christmas delights like caterpillar stuffed animals, toothbrushes, green-and-blue-swirled bouncy balls, sparkly jump ropes, and her personal favorite, fart putty. “I always thought, what would be the kid’s reaction, should I add a little more of this or a little more of that?” Julia said. Before sending away her boxes for shipping Julia would check each one to make sure it was just right. Julia wanted each box to be an explosion of toys, every spare nook and cranny of the box would be packed with chewing gum or blue pencils. In early October, Julia worried that she wouldn’t be able to make her goal. She was 15 boxes short. She went out to her dad’s old office, which she has set up as a shoebox assembly room, and laid out the last 15, nearly empty boxes. She remembered her favorite Bible verse, which she often has written on her hand. “Philippians 4:13 says that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me,” said Julia.
11-year-old North Bend girl meets big goal in Operation Christmas Child BY KIRA CLARK Contributing Writer
Last Thanksgiving, around the time most kids start dreaming about owning the latest iPad or epic roller skates, 11-year-old Julia Navidi of North Bend, started dreaming about packing shoeboxes filled with gifts for other children her age. In 2012, Julia personally funded and packed 33 shoebox gifts. But that wasn’t enough—the goal had been 50 and she had come just 17 short. She was determined to make her goal of 50, but it would take her an entire year of planning and working to make that dream a reality. In the third week of November, Julia packed up her car with 50 boxes and drove them to the nearest collection center, at Bellevue Christian School. Her shoeboxes are a part of Operation Christmas Child, a project of the international relief organization, Samaritan’s Purse. Each year millions of boxes are packed in the United States and sent to some of the world’s most impoverished children. She had made her goal, but it took of all of the 11-year-old’s efforts to make it happen.

Eleven-year-old Julia Navidi of North Bend personally funded and packed shoebox gifts for Operation Christmas Child. She met an ambitious goal this season. “I always wondered what the kids would think, when they got a box,” said Julia. “I already have everything I want, but other kids have so little. I wanted other kids to have a great Christmas, too.” Julia’s boxes were packed with gifts that she either paid for with her own money or that supporters donated so she could reach her goal. Her mom, Sandy Navidi, said Julia spent everything she earned and everything she was given on shoeboxes. Sandy estimates that her daughter spent over 150 hours doing odd jobs to make the money

SPARKLE FROM 1 “We are a family who loves cheerleading,” says coach Nicholson. Pom-poms and human pyramids run in the family, and Nicholson’s own daughter has cheered since she was a tot. “We just believe, a lot, in the value of cheerleading,” she says. As she sees it, not every girl goes out for soccer or basketball, but any girl can have the desire to belong. “Cheer can totally have an impact,” she added. “When our seniors graduate, they talk about how their life is different because of cheerleading. What would they be doing if they didn’t have cheer? This is a calling for them.” For several years, Nicholson and Stevens have noticed teams of cheerleaders made up of teens with special needs, doing exhibitions at the various regional competitions that Mount Si attends. If other schools can do it, why not Mount Si, thought Nicholson. She introduced the Sparkle Effect, a national, student-run program which mixes typically developing cheerleaders with teens with special needs. To get it started, a group of Mount Si cheerleaders volunteered to be leaders, making a yearlong commitment and signing a contract to stick with the program. They attend practices every Tuesday, after their regular cheer practice, at the Freshman Campus, teaching the routines. It’s a lot of extra work, and everyone has a role. Mount Si’s Sparkle Effect team attends games, as well. Just four teens from the community, Mac Davis, Eve Clemens, Silas Palmisano and Serena Thorpe, took part this year. Nicholson wants this number to grow, until it’s a one-to-one basis for every cheerleader.
Strong bonds can beat any differences Photos by Seth Truscott
In the Sparkle Effect, teens with development differences learn, dance and perform stunts alongside committed members of the Mount Si cheer squad. They will build powerful bonds over the course of a year. Top left, Silas Palmisano flexes his muscles with Erin Antoch, doing a practice stunt in December. Top right, Silas is embraced by Joann Richter following the Wildcats homecoming routine in October. Below right, Mac Davis helps as the base of a human pyramid. He doesn’t speak, but communicates in other ways, including signs, with the cheerleaders. Below left, cheerleaders including Lyric Lewis, Erin Antoch, Kaitlyn Rogers, Avery Dahline and Amanda Antoch gather with Sparkle teammate Serena Thorpe.
High flyer Eve Clemens smiles as she is lifted into the air by Avery Dahline, Amanda Antoch and Hailey Weed. Learning her routine for the upcoming cheer season, Clemens is getting the full cheerleader experience as a flyer, a team member who goes airborne in the team’s competitive stunts. Born with Down’s Syndrome, Eve is 19, short and quiet, but Sparkle is where she shines. She shows in ways other than words. “When I say, ‘Get ready for Sparkle,’ it’s not like school, where I have to fight to get her out the Suzanne Clemens, door,” says Eve’s mom, Mount Si Sparkle Effect parent Suzanne Clemens of Fall City. “She does get ready!” Eve loves these girls, and while she wouldn’t show off these routines for mom, she knows them and does them for her Sparkle teammates. It allows her to show a different side of herself. And that’s part of what this is all about. Clemens is impressed by how the girls make time to do this. “They’ve got hours of homework,” she said. “To take time to do this, after their own practice, is huge,” Clemens said. “It’s not lost on me.” “They’re all just beautiful,” she added.
“To take time to do this is huge... They’re all just beautiful.”
Friendships In the next few months, this team will take part in several Sparkle Effect contests and will give an opening performance at the state cheer competition. “Silas, are you excited to perform at state?” asked one cheerleader. “I’m performing at state?” he replied. “Yeah, I’m excited.” Along with routines, this group has built trust. “It was hard to get Eve to learn to stunt,” said Joann Richter. “But now, she’s almost moving up to preps. She’s really enjoying herself.” The cheerleaders have discovered that there’s much more to their new partners than just differences. They’ve learned that Mac has programmed jokes onto the computer device that speaks for him. Silas, too, is outgoing, and plays a lot of jokes. Eve loves sharing hugs. And “Serena is the sweetest,” said Antoch, “always so excited. Watching Serena at a football game, she was so happy—I cried.” Cheerleader Erin Antoch has a senior culminating project due tomorrow. Yet, after finishing regular cheer practice, she’s here to work on routines with her Sparkle Effect teammates.
“It’s hard to manage time, but I’m ready,” she said. Antoch and the others girls do this for the experience, which they see as valuable “for now, and the world and greater things.” The cheerleaders have noticed how their Sparkle partners rarely complain. “They work harder than 90 percent of the athletes I know,” said Joann Richter. “When I come to cheer practice, there are girls who do not want to be there,” said Antoch. “When you come to Sparkle, every kid is ready to go. Even though it’s late, it’s the end of the day, it makes you feel so much better.” “It’s cool to see how much confidence they get,” said cheerleader Sophia Caputo. “At the first parade, Eve was scared to walk with us. Now, she’s out there, every day.” “They learn from us, but at the same time, we learn how to be better people,” summed up Caputo. • You can learn more about the Sparkle Effect program at thesparkleeffect.org.
TRADE FROM 1 “Saving this fertile land for farming will create more jobs for rural residents, support a more robust local food supply, and ensure an even stronger wall against sprawl,” said King County Executive Dow Constantine, who announced the $4.5 million acquisition this week. Tall Chiefs had been one of the Valley’s first dairy farms, operating from the early 1900s to the 1950s, when the golf course was built. The golf course operated until 2009, and owner John Tomlinson later began pursuing plans to create a unique community on the property. Preliminary plans called for development of only
22 acres for the 18 homes, with the remainder of the site planned as open space, small farming plots for each family, and 43 acres of farmland to be leased to another Valley farmer. Flooding concerns and opposition from farmers downstream were raised while the King County Council considered the project, but it was approved in a split vote last July. The land was purchased with Conservation Futures Tax funding, and protected from future development through the county’s Transfer of Development Rights program. The Tall Chiefs property is part of a larger TDR deal transferring 800 density credits, worth $18 million, from roughly 2,000 acres of farmland and 23,000 acres of forest, to the South Lake Union area.

Things you can do to make a better Valley—today
T
he holidays are a time to come together and do good to your loved ones, friends and neighbors. So, with the spirit of community in mind, I’d like to offer the following ways you can do good for the people around you, now. Deadlines may apply, so get your do-gooding done before the new year begins and it’s back to business as usual.
Reward the virtuous The close of the year is generally a quieter time for elected governments. Budgets are passed, outgoing officials say farewell, and awards are presented. North Bend recently closed nominations for its Citizen of the Year award, winners of which will be revealed soon. Another awards list, however, is still in the process of taking names. I’m referring to the second annual Give Good Awards, created by Valley resident Angela Craig to recognize inspirational people and all the hard work that makes the Valley a great place to live. These awards are for everyday heroes, outstanding citizens, youth, businesses, and organizations—they get a red carpet event all their own, February 28 at the Church on the Ridge in Snoqualmie. If you can think of one friend, neighbor, family member, orga- SETH TRUSCOTT nization, or business that really inspired you, cast a vote in 12 Valley Record Editor categories at www.givegoodawards.org. Nominations close December 31. Voting is easy and takes less than five minutes.
Be honest—do you believe in Santa Claus?

Sign up for green power There’s still a few days left to help the city of Snoqualmie hold and keep its lead as the greenest city in the Puget Sound Energy network. Snoqualmie is now first in PSE’s Green Power Challenge, in which communities compete to see who can sign up the most people for a program that ensures at least part of their power at home or work comes from independent, sustainable sources like wind, solar and biogas. If Snoqualmie wins, the community gets a $40,000 grant for a community solar generating project at the Y. It helps a city with ambitions on being green take an important step to boosting hometown solar energy. Snoqualmie already generates green power at Snoqualmie Falls, and a big solar project using free power from the sun is an easy bonus. Snoqualmie may be ahead, but there’s no telling what Tumwater, Kirkland, Anacortes and Bainbridge Island residents are doing to to try to catch up. If you’ve ever thought about going greener with your own power use, there’s no better time than now to sign up and help your neighbors get over the hump. We can all be proud if Snoqualmie wins and those solar panels go up to power the community center. In the 98065 zip code, 255 PSE customers are taking part in the program, out of 4,400 properties. There’s room to grow. Let’s win this thing. Sign up at www.PSE.com/GPChallenge or call 1-800-562-1482. Make sure to let the city know if you’ve signed up, as they’re doing a prize drawing for participants. Call the city at (425) 888-1555 to let them know.

...obituaries Lee Nelson
Our father Lee Nelson, was born and raised on the family farm outside of Council Grove, Kansas. He attended a one-room schoolhouse through high school, and then went on to attend Kansas State University. He worked very hard, financing his school through extra paid work and a loan from his Uncle Oscar. At Kansas State, he met our mother Gloria Spiegel, then 17, at a school mixer at the Farmhouse Fraternity. He cut in and she was dazzled: “Not only was Lee tall...he was also dark haired and handsome. Add to that a gift of gab, very witty, charming, beautiful smile, and polite, and you have all the ingredients...” WWII interrupted his education, but not his determination to marry mom, which he did during a break from duty on a Tuesday evening, March 14, 1944. Lee had joined the U.S. Army Air Force, predecessor of the U.S. Air Force, on December 11, 1941, four days after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Upon graduation from Aviation Navigation School he became a Navigator Instructor first at Ellington Field in Houston, Texas and then at Hondo Army Air Field in Hondo, Texas. He volunteered to join the 315th Bomb Wing on Guam as a Navigator on Bellbuilt Boeing B-29 bombers. He flew missions from Guam to targets in Japan every other day. In that role he flew the longest mission of World War II, 18 and a half hours round trip, and also flew the very last mission of World War II.While returning to Guam from that final mission to Japan the crew received word of the Japanese surrender. This last mission was commemorated in the book, “The Last Mission” by Jim Smith.When his wife Gloria gave birth to twin boys in Kansas, he gained the “points” needed, and returned home from his work in the Air Force. Returning to college with the valuable assistance of the GI Bill, dad graduated from Kansas State University with a BS in Civil Engineering. In the 1950’s, Lee participated in the last land rush in the continental US. On a section of land lacking power, water, or road, he led the effort to make it a working farm. Today it is an apple orchard near Othello, WA. Gloria later wrote a book about those years titled, “We Built a Farm” which featured her on the cover astride their bright red FARMALL Tractor. After 5 years, the family moved to Spokane where Lee worked for the Federal Bureau of Conservation until his retirement. In his “leisure time” he built a lake house and dock at Hayden Lake, where the family vacationed. He invested in properties to supplement his income and became a helpful and understanding landlord--several tenants actually became good friends. Lee was proud of his four children; two of whom became electrical engineers, one who went into medicine and later became a playwright, and one who pursued nursing, homemaking and voiceover production. Lee was always a crack shot with his .22 rifle, having had years of practice as a child helping to provide food for his family in rural Kansas. From Spokane, he and Gloria moved to Carnation, WA to be closer to family. When Gloria died, Lee moved into the Norse Home in the Phinney Ridge area of Seattle where he lived four years, passing away peacefully at almost 97 years of age.

Eastside Fire and Rescue’s board of directors recently approved a new funding model for the emergency services partnership, ending nearly two years of debate on the future of the group. The new funding model takes effect in 2015, for a seven-year period. The changes include many of the updates the city of Sammamish had requested when officials there first announced they were considering withdrawing from the partnership. The Eastside Fire board also accepted changes to the interlocal agreement as recommended by an Ad Hoc Committee, formed in late November to review suggested changes as submitted by the five-party consortium. Most of the changes related to budget approval processes and member ownership of assets. Now, each of the partner entities will be asked to review and approve the new agreement before the end of January. Eastside Fire & Rescue was formed in 1999 by agreements involving Issaquah, King County Fire District 10/Carnation, North Bend, Fire District 38, and Sammamish. Medical, fire, and rescue services are provided to 120,000 residents over 190 square miles.
Mount Si to add school resource officer The Snoqualmie Valley School District and the city of Snoqualmie are partnering to add a School Resource Officer (SRO) at Mount Si High School this school year. The hiring process for the officer is now underway. The uniformed officer will be based at Mount Si High School, to assist with school safety and security needs. The Snoqualmie Police Department will hire the officer, but high school students and staff will be represented on the hiring team. While the officer will be a city of Snoqualmie employee, both the city and school district will share salary costs. “Mount Si High School is one of the few high schools in King County without a school-based officer,” explained Principal John Belcher. “We are excited about this partnership with local law enforcement and look forward to welcoming the new SRO. An onsite officer will help our staff ensure the safety and security of our school environment, as well as offer a positive role model for students.” The school resource officer will interact with students and staff, to forge a stronger working relationship with the school, and provide students personal involvement with local law enforcement. With a regular presence on campus, the officer can help deter or prevent incidents, conduct investigations when needed, serve as a liaison between the school and department, and assist in the classroom education regarding safety. “About 10 years ago, there was a school resource officer in our school district, but unfortunately, that service was discontinued due to budget cuts. Now, we look forward to re-establishing this relationship and the benefits it will provide our schools and our community,” said Snoqualmie Chief of Police Steve McCulley, who was instrumental in cultivating this opportunity. While school is in session, the SRO will be based primarily at Mount Si High School, but may support other schools as needed. When school is not in session, the officer will support other needs at the Snoqualmie Police Department.
CONTRACT FROM 1 The aim was to renew their contracts which expired Aug. 30. PSE includes most classified, or non-certificated, school staff such as bus drivers, custodians, aides and food service workers. SVASA membership includes most of

the district secretarial staff. Both unions have requested mediation help, with limited success so far. “There's been no movement,” says Karen Seiser, copresident of SVASA, which had its first mediated meeting on Dec. 13. No offer resulted from that meeting, but another one is scheduled for Jan. 22. PSE negotiations did produce an offer, for a four-year contract with a roughly 2 percent annual pay increase, that the leadership team brought before its members in November. Union president Jill Holen had been hopeful that the offer would be acceptable to members, but the Nov. 25 vote was 68
to 60 against the offer. Since then, Holen said, no meetings have been set, but the leadership is planning on some member outreach. “We want to get a survey out, and see why it didn't pass,” she said. “We can't do anything until we find out what needs to change.” In recent months, members of both unions have filled the audiences of school board meetings, and called on the board during public comments to negotiate fair contracts. They felt they weren't being respected, and asked for a contract similar to the one accepted Sept. 8 by the Snoqualmie Valley Education Association, as teachers were
preparing to strike. That contract awarded teachers a 2 percent annual pay increase that, with other healthcare benefits, came to a roughly 8 percent increase over the three year term, according to state PSE representatives. Both unions agreed to postpone their contract negotiations over the summer months, to allow the district to resolve its contract with the teachers in time to avert the strike.
SPIRIT FROM 2 “I prayed that God would help me fill my boxes so that other kids could feel loved,” Navidi said. The next Sunday at church five different women came up to Julia and gave her rest of the toys she needed to fill her boxes to the brim. “She’s worked tirelessly for these boxes and the outcome has been magical. Her desire to give to others is really the true spirit of Christmas,” said Sandy Navidi. “It’s amazing what even a kid can do if she sets her mind to it.” Julia has already started working on her boxes for next year. Her goal is to make 75. In order to make her goal, Julia will need to earn over $1,000. National collection week for Operation Christmas Child is generally the third week in November. For more information about how to pack your own box visit occ.org or contact Tricia Howland, Valley relay coordinator at (425)-417-2386. To support Julia contact her mom, Sandy Navidi at snavidi@comcast.net.

Kicks for a cause
Ways you can stop germs in their tracks
DMW Martial Arts runs kickathon charity drive for local food banks Every November, DMW Martial Arts school in Snoqualmie holds its Kickathon fundraiser to help those in need. Chief instructor Dan Cartan said that last month, as part of their character education, DMW students worked hard and blew through a goal of 750,000 kicks. As a school, they performed a total of 895,600 kicks for the week and raised more than $5,000 for local food banks.

Students at Snoqualmie’s DMW Martial Arts show their physique during the week of Kickathon, held in November. Students are challenged to build their character by working hard and helping local food banks. Below left, students line up on the first day of the event. November was Gratitude Month as part of DMW’s character development program. Students were studying, developing and experiencing powerful life lessons . “As it turns out; it feels good to give,” stated Cartan. “Studies have shown that the same brain region that is activated when people win money is activated when they give to charity. A cyclical effect begins; pro social giving makes us feel good, so we give more, and so on. Starting this cycle early is key.”
Everywhere you go, there is usually someone coughing, sneezing or sniffling. Winter is a prime time for cold, flus and other infections. The question is, what can you do to avoid getting sick? Understanding how germs spread can help decrease your risk of infecting yourself or others. Infectious diseases are spread through direct contact or indirect contact with another person, through the air and by contaminated food. The most common way to transmit germs is through physical contact or exchanging body fluids. Coughing and sneezing can also spread germs. Organisms can live on objects such as tables, doorknobs and faucets for a short period of time. If you touch the object soon after the exposed person and then touch your mouth, nose or eyes, you may be exposed to infection. Food may also carry bacteria that can spread through your body if it is not prepared properly. More than 50 percent of all food-borne illnesses in the United States are caused by norovirus, which is sometimes referred to as the stomach flu. Norovirus infections occur year-round but more commonly in the winter months. Another common illness affecting people in the winter is influenza. While there is a vaccine available for the flu, there is no vaccine to prevent the norovirus. So what can you do to ward off these infections? According to Lynn Cravero, Infection Control Nurse for the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital, the answer is simple: wash your hands often and cover your cough and sneezes. “Containment of coughs and sneezes is important, but the biggest preventative measure is through good hand hygiene practices at home, work and anywhere you go,” she said. “Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water often and especially before you touch your face. This is the most effective way to prevent spreading infections.” • Learn more about Snoqualmie Valley Hospital at www.snoqualmiehospital.org.

Peyton McCulley joins Rep’s youth board After a rigorous selection process, Peyton McCulley, a 17-year-old North Bend student and senior at Mount Si High School, was selected in November as a member of Congressman Dave Reichert’s 2013-2014 Youth Advisory Board. She is the only Valley representative on the 23-student board, which was first formed in 2011 to get input from young men and women and future leaders. “I am honored to be joined by this group of bright young men and women,” stated Reichert. “Today’s youth are very informed and understand that federal policy affects us all, no matter how young or old. Therefore, it is especially important to hear everyone’s opinion. These young people will also one day be in charge of leading this nation, so I believe that encouraging them to get involved now can only be a benefit to this state and this country.”

Shutout season for Valley boys on Eastside Crusaders Eastside Crusaders Junior Football capped a 9-0 shutout season in November with a 27-0 win over the Mountlake Terrace Hawks. It is the second time in three years that the Crusaders have captured the title of Northwest Junior Football League champions. Fifteen members of this year’s Junior team were part of the 2011 championship team. This year, the team scored 256 points, had only 25 points scored against, went 9-0, and ran 7,200 flights of stairs in 42 practices, equaling two-thirds of the height of Mount Rainier. The Crusaders are not a school team.The team includes five players from the Valley: Andrew Yan, Jacob Keller-Rusch and Owen Stoutt from Carnation, Jacob Cooper from Fall City, and Benjamin Lombardi of North Bend. “A championship in middle school should not and will not be the highlight of these boys’ lives,” wrote assistant coach Jen Heger. “It is, however, a great template in moving forward. I hope that these young men have learned to work hard with goal-oriented determination, bounce back and learn from mistakes, handle pressure with grace, have fun, lead, follow, adjust, be part of a larger group and win with both pride and humility.” We have a Truck To renT for LocaL Moves

Hannah set the five-kilometer cross country record this season. “I love running,” says Joe Waskom. “I probably started when I was 6. I wanted to run home every day from school.” He started running seriously in the sixth grade, ran track at Snoqualmie Middle School, and plans to run distance this spring for Chief Kanim Middle School. Running comes naturally. “I train and work hard every day,” said Waskom. “So does my sister. We love running as a family. We just go out on Sundays and run for fun, usually five miles.” The competition draws him in. “I like getting faster times, and beating fast people,” Waskom said. Racing against 400 other runners in the Junior Olympics, Waskom had to burst out of the gate. He rushed to the front and stayed with the leader.
In San Antonio, conditions were very windy. Waskom strategized and let the other boy lead and take the brunt of the wind. “About 800 meters to go, I had to really turn it on,” he said. “My sister taught me how to kick—she usually has a kick at the end.” A three-kilometer race is 1.86 miles. Besides school events, Waskom has run four Snoqualmie Ridge Turkey Trots, three Saint Patty’s Day and three Railroad Days five-K runs. Outside of running, he hustles as a forward on his Eastside FC soccer team. A national title was his first goal, and he’s met it. His second goal is to one day make it to the Olympic Games. “I’m going to work hard, train hard and eat healthy,” Waskom said. “As my times improve, so will I.” • You can see the full event results at http:// www.usatf.org/Events---Calendar/2013/ USATF-National-Junior-Olympic-CrossCountry-Champi/Athlete-Info.aspx.
