ore than 500 people braved cloudy skies and occasional drizzle to volunteer their efforts at the annual Beautify Bonney Lake community clean-up event Saturday. Teams met at the Park and Ride at 9 a.m. and fanned out to 20 sites around the city including Ascent Park, above, where Alex Fuqua and Casey Lovehealey, both 11, helped pull weeds. At a site near Victor Falls Elementary, right, Brooke Lawerence, 3, and Summer Puljan 6, got a little help planting bulbs from Ashley Lawrence. Volunteers also did clean-up and maintenance work at Allan Yorke Park, City Hall, the Public Safety Building, Viking Park, the Community Garden, the Sky Stone, Art Park and many other sites throughout the city. The event is one of the largest community service days in the state.

Beginning in November, it’s going to cost more to ride the bus. The Pierce Transit board of commissioners voted Sept. 13 to increase regular adult fares by 25 cents, which means beginning Nov. 1, it will be $2 to catch a ride. Vanpool fees are also slated to increase. For commuter vanpools with five and six riders, the increase will be $9 per rider per month. For pools of seven and eight, the increase will be $7 per rider per month. There is also a $5 per month increase per rider on pools of nine and 10, a $2 increase on pools of 11 and 12 and a $1 increase for pools of 13 and 14. Regular adult fares were last increased in January 2009 and vanpool fares increased in October 2008. In addition, Pierce Transit will begin charging for rides on Christmas and Thanksgiving, days which have been free.

Sumner approves church expansion plans By Chaz Holmes Staff writer
After several months of litigation, the city of Sumner and Calvary Community Church have reached an agreement on the church’s expansion project. The church applied for a conditional use permit (CUP) in January 2008 in order to expand the existing church and construct new buildings on the grounds. Sumner hosted a public hearing on the matter in February 2009 and the presiding hearing examiner issued his decision March 19, 2009, granting the permit to the church.
Upon appeal, the council conducted a closed-record hearing in which a resolution was drafted and modified the hearing examiner’s decision and denied much of the proposed project. In response, the church appealed the city council’s decision to Pierce County Superior Court in January. The church claimed in the appeal Sumner’s decision conflicted with the federal Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act. At a special council meeting, Sumner City Attorney Bret Vinson said like any compromise, it’s one in which both parties are not
entirely pleased. Sumner and the church decided to resolve the issue by reducing the project’s scope. This agreement, known as the Revised CUP Site Plan, entails a number of alterations to the original expansion plan. Among these changes are the allowing of the new sanctuary to be built, but with the total square footage of the sanctuary to be 78,150 square feet. The seating at the sanctuary is to be limited to 1,527 seats on the main level and the seating cannot be expanded. On the second story

A dog show in Sumner Saturday and Sunday aimed to create awareness of and improve the health of a specific breed of dog. From 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at It’s a Dog’s World in Sumner, the Hurricane Ridge Havana Silks breeder group hosted an informational show on the Havana silks dog breed. Jennifer Haugland of the breeder group said she hopes people learn more about the dogs. Years of breeding has caused health problems in the Havana silk dogs and the group aims to correct this. “We wanted to bring breeding back to the original standard,” Haugland said. Health problems include, among other things, dwarfism and blindness. At eight weeks of age, the dogs have a skeletal structure very similar to an adult dog and an examination can determine whether it’s in proper health in certain ways. “You breed away from shorter fronts,” she said. To breed the dwarfism out of the dogs, the ones with the straighter front legs are selected. Haugland hopes the organization and others like it can breed healthier dogs.

31st Candidate addresses rumors about his past State Senate hopeful Matt Richardson discusses the accusations against him By Brian Beckley Staff writer
For years, Sumner City Councilman and 31st District Senate candidate
Matt Richardson has been dogged by allegations about his past. Rumors of all sorts — including a criminal background — have simply refused to go away.

This year, as Richardson is attempting to step up to a state-level office, the accusations have resurfaced, including on a website designed to look like a campaign page for Richardson. That site, however, is being run by a supporter of his opponent, Sen. Pam Roach. But as the Nov. 2 general election approaches, Richardson sat for an exclusive interview with The Courier-Herald to discuss the allegations. Perhaps the most disturbing of the allegations involves accusations of abuse involving Richardson’s cousins. Richardson and his female cousins were all minors at the time of the multiple occurrences, which are alleged to have happened in the early 1980s. Richardson

available through the King County Courts and includes a determination of probable cause, which includes many of the original allegations. Richardson strongly denies all of the allegations and points to the time between the alleged events and the court case as an indication that it was a false charge. “If the charges were accurate, why would he wait 12 years to bring them against me?” Richardson asked. “I was the victim of a wrongful prosecution.” Though a protection order was initially granted, it too was dismissed “with prejudice” in January 1993. The Courier-Herald has decided not to publish the specific allegations as Richardson has been cleared of the charges. Richardson also points to his multiple background checks since that time as further proof his record is

A GR 15 is a document designed to destroy, seal and redact all court papers regarding the incident. Because of that, records of the case and the charges are not available, including the GR 15 itself, though Richardson has a copy, which was examined by The Courier-Herald. “I was accused of something as a minor 32 years ago,” Richardson said Sept. 2. “They never had any proof of anything, that’s why it was dismissed three and a half months later.” However, an order of protection suit was filed against Richardson by his aunt and uncle in 1992 when he was working as a security guard in the Kent School district.

clean. Because of his job as a teacher, as well as his previous work experience in the U.S. House of Representatives, the state Senate and as an adjunct professor for the U.S. Navy, Richardson has been through numerous background checks, including multiple checks from the FBI, Homeland Security, Department of Defense and the Washington Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. Copies of all of the checks, as well as the resulting clearances and passes, indicate nothing that would prevent him from working in schools or at any level of the government. “I have all the background checks,” he said. Richardson displayed documents from an FBI background check in 2009 showing “no arrest and/or conviction record.” In addition to the documents from the early-1990s, an additional set of papers has shown up detailing the end of Richardson’s employment with the Federal Way School District in 2006. The issue revolved around an allegation of sexual and malicious harassment involving three female students at the middle school where Richardson taught English Language Learning. The girls alleged that Richardson stared at the students’ breasts and buttocks, appeared to obtain arousal in the classroom, had worn pants that purposefully exposed his buttocks, yelled at students, called them derogatory names and allowed a male student to grab a female student. After an investigation by the district, Richardson was cleared of the malicious and sexual harassment accusations, though he did receive a letter of reprimand for using inappropriate language, yelling at students

“People need to know the facts. They have had nothing but rumors to rely on.” Matt Richardson State Senate Candidate
Richardson vehemently denies having an affair with the woman and said the e-mails were an “inside joke” about Sumner being a “rumor mill” and how people would talk if the two of them were seen together. Richardson says the e-mails were “crass” and that the two got “carried away” but insists the innuendo was all a joke. “That’s why there’s an LOL at the end,” Richardson said of the e-mails. A review of the e-mails shows an odd code between the two, but contain no proof of any sort of illicit affair. Many contain exchanges on city business. In the most potentially damning e-mail, Richardson appears to be setting up a meeting between the two at a hotel in Seattle by using a code, however, the e-mail includes an “LOL” at the end. When the woman responds that the day he mentioned was Mother’s Day, Richardson wrote back, changing the code and the date to a week later. Richardson’s e-mail begins with “haha, yes of course. I was lost in the humor about the date.” In the most recent event
to prompt negative attention, Richardson was pulled over for reckless driving Aug. 1 in Puyallup. According to the police report, Richardson and another driver were both traveling south on Meridian Avenue at 77 mph in a 35 mph zone. It appeared to the officer the two vehicles were racing and he radioed ahead to another officer and both vehicles were pulled over. According to the report, Richardson told the officer “that guy cut me off” and the officer asked “if that was any reason to travel at double the posted speed limit. Richardson said ‘no.’” Richardson said he was on his way to the Woodcreek Health office in the 1700 block of Meridian because his wife had taken his 3-year-old son in for an emergency. Richardson said that he was in the left lane and needed to make a right turn into the medical facility and tried to get ahead of the other car, but the other driver wouldn’t let him in. “When I stepped on the gas, he stepped on the gas,” Richardson said of the incident. “This was not a sustained rate of speed.” Because of the mitigating circumstances of
his son and a clean driving record, the charge was reduced to a traffic citation at Richardson’s court date. For many, the question is – with a past like the one he appears to have – why would Richardson run for a higher office, knowing the allegations would likely come out? “I was falsely accused and I stand on my experience over the last 16 years,” he said. Richardson also said he was not surprised his opponent was trying to use his past against him, adding that Roach had used similar tactics against every opponent she has faced. “Nobody should be surprised,” he said. “She engages in politics of total destruction and her career reflects that.” Voters will determine whether the allegations in Richardson’s past will sway their vote, but Richardson said he is comfortable with the facts of each incident being put forward. “People need to know the facts,” he said. “They have had nothing but rumors to rely on.” To comment on this story view it online at www. blscourierherald.

and allowing a male student to touch a female student after a request was made to intervene. The letter states, the “effect of your actions had towards (sic) creating a hostile learning environment in which students experiences extreme discomfort and a fear of your reprisals.” Richardson said the events stemmed from an incident in which he tried to write up the girls for inappropriate dress. “I was strictly reading the rules of dress code violation,” he said. Richardson said he was “lecturing” students that he would not allow the violations and denied ever saying he would retaliate against the students, though he admitted he may have cursed. Richardson also said he believes the reprimand was retribution against him because of his role as a union representative within the building and said the administration was “manipulated by the students.” “I was in the process of following school policy,” he said. The letter goes on to recommend to the administration that Richardson remain on unpaid leave for the remainder of the year and that his contract not be continued. In a response letter to the district, Richardson wrote that there were are “very serious problems” at the school and tendered his resignation, effective at year’s end, claiming the school’s vice principal contributed to a hostile work environment against him. “I wasn’t going to work in that district anymore,” he said. “Are you kidding?” Earlier this year, a series of e-mails between Richardson and a woman who was a
member of the Sumner Planning Commission also drew attention because of exchanges between the two that appear sexually charged. In one e-mail, the pair appear to be setting up a tryst at a Seattle hotel, leading to accusations of an affair between the two.

Ecology approves Lake Tapps water rights The Washington State Department of Ecology on Thursday granted the Cascade Water Authority the approval to use a portion of Lake Tapps water as a future drinking source. This will be the first regional water supply to come on line in the Puget Sound area in many years. The decision also guarantees summer recreation levels for one of Pierce County’s most popular lakes and robust flows in the White River that support habitat and salmon runs while improving the river’s water quality. “The work to decide who gets to use the public’s water is some of the most difficult we face at Ecology,” Ecology Director Ted Sturdevant said in a press release. “I believe we’ve struck the right balance with this decision. The key interests of each party have been preserved, reflecting the art of compromise necessary for good water decisions.” Pierce Councilman Shawn Bunney and state Rep. Chris Hurst, two of those who have been actively involved in
negotiations, agreed. “Although the devil’s always in the details, I think we have a good proposal and am pleased that we may soon see a successful end to this process that has now lasted over a decade,” Bunney said. Cascade is a consortium of eight municipalities and provides drinking water to nearly 400,000 residences and more than 22,000 businesses in eastern King County. The finalization of these rights completes a decade-long effort to identify and develop a way to preserve the Lake Tapps reservoir from drying up. Lake Tapps is a reservoir created in 1911 as part of a hydroelectric project on the White River. When Puget Sound Energy announced in 1999 it might not have the ability to continue operating the system, concerns arose about the lake’s future. Lake Tapps community homeowners and others who enjoy the lake were particularly worried about maintaining appropriate lake levels for swim-

ming, boating and other recreational activities. Proposals emerged in the early 2000s to save the lake by turning it into a drinking water supply. Puget Sound Energy ended the hydroelectric operations in 2004 but agreed to keep the lake filled while negotiations to sell the lake were ongoing. Cascade purchased Lake Tapps from Puget Sound Energy in December 2009. The work to secure four new water rights and to transfer another has been a lengthy and complex process, requiring thorough environmental scrutiny. It involved negotiations with many stakeholders, including Cascade, the Muckleshoot and Puyallup tribes, the Lake Tapps Community Council and four other neighboring cities. “I would like to see the fine print, but it seems that we are finally at the end of this long journey with an agreement which protects the lake, citizens of Lake Tapps, fish and a regional water supply for the future,” Hurst said. Ecology’s decision gives Cascade the right to eventually divert up to 48 million gallons of water daily from Lake Tapps to serve its customers. Cascade agreed to prioritize specific flows in the White River and summer recreation levels in Lake Tapps ahead of taking water for municipal use. Cascade does not plan to develop this regional water supply for decades, and will still have to build water treatment and delivery systems. Ecology’s decision is final pending any appeals which must be filed within the next 30 days.

Mayor Neil Johnson in April designated Viking Park as the temporary location for a new dog park. Since then, teams of volunteers have hosted work parties to prepare the park for its opening. In addition, the Bonney Lake Dog House donated a waste station for the facility. The park features a double-gated entry system designed to allow dog owners the opportunity to remove or fasten leashes prior to entering or exiting the facility. The park’s grand opening celebration is scheduled to include Sparky, East Pierce Fire and Rescue’s Dalmatian mascot. And unlike traditional ribboncuttings, the mayor will open the park by cutting through a ribbon made of doggie waste bags. The dog park is free and will be open tot he public every day from dawn until dusk. To comment on this story view it online at www. blscourierherald.

A hospital by any other name ... What a good choice St. Elizabeth is for Enumclaw Regional Hospital. St. Elizabeth of Hungary is one of the Catholic patron saints of nurses, hospitals and charities. Catholic saints are, or were at one time, regular Joes like us who, like Jesus, walked the walk and talked the talk. Through their everyday lives, they did extraordinary things. Some were sacrifices, others were simple things we can do like feeding the poor or caring for the sick. The point was, they responded to God’s invitation to use the gifts he had given them. Patron saints Brenda Sexton are chosen as speStaff writer cial protectors or guardians over areas of life. These areas can include occupations, illnesses, churches, countries — just about anything. Each year at Sacred Heart Church, where I teach religious education, we put on a Saints Festival for All Saints Day Nov. 1. The children, and teachers like myself, dress as saints and tell their stories to a small audience. I love when we get to study the patron saints. The children often select a saint with meaning in their lives. In the past I have been Saint Francis de Sales, the patron saint of journalists and writers, and Saint Maximilian Mary Kolbe, who produced a religious magazine and later in life died with other prisoners in a German concentration camp. All the hospitals in the Franciscan Health System family follow the pattern: St. Joseph in Tacoma, St. Francis in Federal Way, St. Clare in Lakewood and St. Anthony in Gig Harbor. But, St. Elizabeth isn’t just a good choice because she’s the patron saint of hospitals and nurses and it looks good on Franciscan stationery. It’s her story that hits close to home.

Perhaps America should take its cues from Cuba and cut the government In the classic children’s story “Alice in Wonderland,” a little girl falls down a rabbit hole and finds herself in a strange world where everything is upside down, where all the rules have changed and peculiar people do inexplicable things. I know how she feels. According to a Sept. 14 BBC broadcast, Cuban President Raul Castro will lay off at least 500,000 state employees by mid-2011 and boost opportunities in the private sector to help those workers find new jobs. He suggested that as many as 1 million government workers will be laid off to ease the burden on the Cuban government. Currently, the state employs 5 million people, 95 percent of the Cuban workforce. The move is seen as an attempt to stabilize the Cuban economy, which has suffered from economic boycotts and the loss of subsidies from the now-defunct Soviet Union. Castro’s privatization plan includes allowing more Cubans to run their own businesses, form nongovernment cooperatives and shift more state land, businesses and infrastructure into private hands through long-term leases. T he Cuba n Workers Confederation, the only labor union allowed by the government, supports the move, saying, “Our state cannot and should not continue supporting businesses, production entities and services with inflated payrolls.” Here in the United States, we seem
Business view Don Brunell Columnist
to be going in the opposite direction. Government employment is increasing while private-sector employment is decreasing, and while the Cuban government is expanding private enterprise, our government is steadily encroaching on the private sector. Take government jobs, for instance. The Obama administration says the federal payroll will grow to 2.15 million workers this year. The federal government has added almost 200,000 jobs during the recession while private employers have shed some 8 million net jobs. And while the Cuban government is easing its grip on private businesses, the U.S. government is broadening its reach into the private sector. Bailouts, financial reform legislation and aggressive federal regulators are all increasing the government’s control of the private sector. At a minimum, the situation is ironic. At most, it is unfathomable. While Cuban officials warn of the danger of supporting bloated inefficient businesses, our government borrows billions to prop up compa-
nies deemed “too big to fail.” While the Cuban government vows to promote private-sector opportunities, our new health-reform law and the proposed cap-and-trade legislation threaten to trap private employers in a complex and costly web of mandates, restrictions, fines and penalties, and regulations that will continue to drag our economy down. Like Alice, we find ourselves in a mystifying world where down is up and up is down. Cuba, one of the world’s most high-profile communist nations, appears to be recognizing that government control of the economy doesn’t work. Propped up for decades by billions in Soviet subsidies, Cuba is now on its own and its economy is crumbling. Even the revolution’s old guard acknowledges that things must change, so they are beginning to embrace capitalism and economic freedom as a way to save their country. Cuba is realizing that stifling federal control of the private sector doesn’t work, period. Castro found out the hard way that individual economic freedom to innovate and be creative is the key to growth, prosperity and just plain making family life better. I know this sounds bizarre, but perhaps the U.S. should take its cue from Cuba. Don Brunell is the president of the Association of Washington Business.

CORNER FROM 7 According to information the folks at Franciscan Healthcare provided and what I found on my own, Elizabeth was born in 1207, the daughter of the king of Hungary. She married a prince and could have lived a life of leisure. Instead, she dedicated herself to helping the poor. She became associated with the Franciscans when they established a monastery near her home. A few years later, she built a Franciscan hospital at the base of a
www.blscourierherald.com
mountain and often personally tended the sick and poor. What a coincidence: our hospital is associated with the Franciscans and is at the base of a mountain. It’s either really good public relations,or faith at work that Enumclaw Regional Hospital would become St. Elizabeth. I’m leaning toward faith. As we sat around the table with hospital leaders, they were sure, in time, St. Elizabeth would get a nickname like St. Joseph, who people know as St. Joe. They liked the sound of St. E - for Elizabeth or Enumclaw.

request for a classroom at a religious institution could be construed as denying the free exercise of religion because it could be proven to hamper the religious education of children. During the public comment periods of the hearings, citizens expressed their concerns regarding the project’s effect on Sumner. One of the biggest concerns was the traffic increase in an area which already has a heavy flow at peak hours. To curb the traffic in the area, the agreement establishes guidelines on when church events may start and end. According to the agreement, “Regularly scheduled Church functions will not commence or conclude during the weekday p.m. peak traffic hours between 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. without prior written approval from the City’s Public Works Director.” Church parking is lessened from 840 spaces as planned, to 730 stalls. In the agreement, the church pays $50,000 to a traffic mitigation fund. The fund is to adjust the timing of traffic signals in the area and to pay for the cost of maintenance of a new signal at the north entrance of the facility. Applause followed the unanimous approval of the agreement’s adoption at the meeting. “This has been a lot of work and a lot of people have worked hard,” Mayor Dave Enslow said.

fares FROM 1 Fares for seniors and the disabled will remain at their current rate. Pierce Transit is in its third year of addressing impacts of sharp declines in sales tax revenue. The agency was one of the first entities to experience a layoff of personnel – a 5 percent reduction. Other actions taken to date include: delaying or eliminating capital projects, reducing service by nearly 6 percent, and increasing regular adult fares in 2009.
Wednesday, September 22, 2010 • The BONNEY Lake & SUMNER Courier-Herald • Page 9 Those actions combined with employee identified operational efficiencies have saved over $72 million. In July, the board selected a plan to preserve service levels with the goal of providing financially sustainable public transportation that area residents value and use. The board directed staff to put forward a ballot proposition for the Feb. 8 election to exercise the final 0.3 percent sales tax authority available to Pierce Transit to provide funding to meet current service demands. The increase would amount to
an extra 3 cents on every $10 purchase and would take the transit authority to its maximum taxing capacity. Presently, Pierce Transit has a taxing authority of 0.6 percent. The transit authority is trying to deal with a gap between revenue and expenditures that is expected to reach $68 million by 2012. Officials have said the transit authority receives approximately 70 percent of its funding through sales tax revenues. Reach Brian Beckley at bbeckley@courierherald.com or 360825-2555, ext. 5058.

Bonney Lake Polce Blotter DISORDERLY CONDUCT: Police late in the evening of Sept. 7 were dispatched to the 19400 block of 68th Street Court East for a report of a disorderly male subject who was intoxicated and yelling about “biting someone or going to fight someone.” Upon contact, police determined the man to be intoxicated and was rambling about his sister getting ripped off and wanting to go to a mental insti-
tution. Officers suggested he go in and go to sleep and the man began to yell louder, including profanities. He then took off his coat and raised his fists toward the police. The officer withdrew his Taser and ordered the suspect to the ground. He complied immediately and was secured in handcuffs. He was transported to Buckley Jail and booked on charges of disorderly conduct.
SHOPLIFTING: Police on Sept. 9 were dispatched to the Walmart for a report of two juvenile shoplifters in custody. Store security watched two female teens conceal makeup on their person and attempt to leave the store without paying. The teens were released to their parents and the case was forwarded to Remann Hall for charges. VANDALISM: Police on Sept. 9 were dispatched to the 18800 block of Mountain View Drive for a malicious mischief call. The resident reported damage to the inside of the residence
that had taken place while they were out of town, including a hole in the bedroom door and broken glass. The resident provided suspect information and police are investigating. THEFT: Officers on Sept. 12 were dispatched to the Fred Meyer for a suspicious persons call. The reporting party said the juveniles were acting suspicious at Safeway and he observed them go into Fred Meyer as well. The witness identified the car the juveniles arrived in and the juveniles as they exited the store. When the officers
motioned for the teens to come toward them, one knelt down and appeared to the officer to be hiding something under a car. Under the car, police located three packs of undershirts and a bottle of cologne. A second teen had a pair of jeans and four pair of socks stuffed in his pants. The total value of the merchandise stolen by the two teens was $751.92. Both were transported to Remann Hall and booked on theft charges. More

Mountain View to host family math night By Daniel Nash Staff Writer
Parents and guardians concerned about their child’s math development outside of school have a place to go this week. Mountain View Middle School will host a Family Math Night for elementarylevel students and parents Thursday. The 6 p.m. event is cosponsored by STARR Project, the 21st Century Learning Center and Sumner School District. The object of the evening is to strengthen math concepts by presenting them in an entertaining game form, according to an information release on the district website. Tips will be presented for ways families can help with homework and reinforce math skills at home. Teaching consultants Box Cars and One-Eyed Jacks will give a presentation at the event. The district focus on math skills is being pushed forward in part to foster student success in performance benchmarks such as K-8 testing platform Measures of Academic Progress. “Our world of technology demands strong skills in mathematics, and these demands will only increase over the lifetimes of our children,” an information release authored by district spokesperson Ann Cook read. “Parents must become involved early and stay involved over the school years to build children’s skills in math and develop positive attitudes toward mathematics.” Mountain View Middle School is at 10921 199th Ave Ct E in Bonney Lake.

Math is a continuing problem area for Sumner School District’s standardized testing in 2009-2010, especially at the high school level. Above are graphs of math testing results for fourth, seventh and 10th grade, presented at the Sept. 15 school board meeting, While the former two are improving and exceeding federal standards, 10th grade results are below the standard and in decline. Graphs courtesy of Sumner School District/To view or buy photos go to www. blscourierherald.com.
fourth-grade reading, math and writing. Exceptions were third- and sixth-grade math, which were 0.4 percent and 4.4 percent below the state average, respectively. Math education was and will continue to be the biggest hurdle for the district, Lynch said. A comparison of the fourth, seventh and tenth grades showed that the for-
mer two exceeded the federal benchmarks, beat the state average and improved from the 2008-2009 school year. While 10th grade math results for the district beat the state average, they were below federal benchmarks and have continued to fall since the 2007-2008 school year. “This (10th Grade is where the graphs get a bit sad,” Lynch said. “We have
a lot of work to do. We don’t have the answers, obviously, or else we would be celebrating a 100 percent pass rate. But our teachers are working hard.” To comment on this story view it online at www. blscourierherald.com. Reach Daniel Nash at dnash@courierherald.com or 360-8252555 ext. 5060.

Stage company Local artist opens doors recreates It’s that time of year again! As leaves are turning shades of orange and red, Stage Door Productions cast members have been involved in rehearsals for their fall production. This season, Stage Door will be presenting a double feature for its fall performance beginning Oct. 7 at the White River High Trudy D’Armond School theater. “Black Comedy” and Columnist “The Real Inspector Hound” will be directed by Lucus Amundson. “The Real Inspector Hound” is a short, one-act play by Tom Stoppard. The plot follows two theatre critics named Moon and Birdboot who are watching a ludicrous setup of a country house murder, in the style of a whodunit. By chance, they become involved in the action causing a series of events that parallel the play they are watching. It is a parody of the stereotypical parlor mystery in the style of Agatha Christie’s “The Mousetrap,” as well as of the critics watching the play, with their personal desires and obsessions interwoven into their bombastic and pompous reviews. In “The Real Inspector Hound,” SDP is inviting anyone who would like to be the “guest” dead body that lays motionless in the middle of the scene throughout the entire play. Imagine being a guest star with no lines, with the best seat in the house! Call Amundson at 253230-4074 or Frank Thompson at 360-825-2212 if you’d like to donate your body for an hour as a special part in this play. Back stage assistance for scene changes, selling and taking tickets is always welcomed as well. “Black Comedy” is a one-act play by British dramatist Peter Shaffer, first performed in 1965. The play is, suitably enough, a black comedy in which the effect loss of light would have on a group of people who all hold things from each other is explored; as such, its title is a pun. The play is a farce set in a London flat during an electrical blackout and was written to be staged under a reversed lighting scheme: that is, the play opens with a dinner party beginning on a darkened stage, then a few minutes into the show “a fuse blows,” the stage lights come up and the characters are seen shambling around apparently invisible to one another.
Art Corner
landmark By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer
John Bitney is always tinkering, building, creating. Now, the recently-retired dairy farmer is forging a future in the arts. In August, the Enumclaw resident put the finishing touches on a restoration project at Seattle’s Pike Place Market. He was brought in to create a landmark – to build a replica of the historic light fixture first installed above the site’s public restrooms in 1908. The lamp was hidden behind the famous neon Public Market Center sign and clock and still sits in that location, but the Pike Place Market Preservation and Development Authority is in the first phase of a renovation project and the lamp is a centerpiece for a new terrace and outside stairway. To call the lamp a restoration project is modest. Bitney started with the structure’s 100-plus-year-old, 15-foot tall, 6,000-pound base. He found a couple of photographs from 1916 and 1920 which featured the lamp from a distance. And, through some good detective work, he got his hands on the original ink-on-linen drawings of the

piece from the early 1900s. “It is an interesting piece with an interesting history,” Bitney said. It also posed some interesting design dilemmas, which for a problem-solver like Bitney, proved a good match for his keen intellect and creative juices. “It was quite a feat for a little one-man shop like mine,” Bitney said. Bitney finished his design work in December and then went through six months of pressure-cooker patterning and casting to make the deadline. The pattern construction alone took two months. The 1,000-pound, cast iron, fixture has eight arms, each with a 16-inch glass globe. The 20-inch globe, which because of its size had to be handblown, rests on the top. The piece was dedicated Aug. 17. Creating the piece was the work Bitney’s been craving. Raised on the Enumclaw farm, he earned a degree in mechanical engineering and another in animal science. After graduation, he worked as an engineer briefly before

returning to the dairy business. He retired his herd about a year ago. “All the while I was fabricating and casting metal as a hobby,” he said. With the milking done, he had more time for that hobby. “I’ve always done metal work,” he said. “Now I’m trying to ramp it up.” He did some cast-iron castings for the Pioneer Square pergola after its collapse. He created newel posts for the stairways for Seattle’s Lincoln High School remodel. Most of his jobs have been creating iron and hardware for highend handrails and boats and doing one-of-a-kind custom work. “It was always sporadic. Industrial art is the sort of thing I’d like to do more of,” he said. Slowly and surely, he’s get-

Hooray for hydrangeas, fall’s bloomers Meet Marianne Binetti from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Saturday at Furney’s Nursery in SeaTac. Enjoy a free seminar on fall gardening and landscaping with less water waste.
The last week of September is still too early to harvest pumpkins but
not too late to plant garlic or onion sets. You don’t have to harvest potatoes, carrots or brussels sprouts as these vegetables store better when left outdoors all winter. Swiss chard will also overwinter in well-drained soil and in our climate this vitamin-packed veggie can keep producing for two full
years. I grow the beautiful leaves and colorful stems of Swiss chard in container gardens and in front yard beds surrounded by flowers. Growing Swiss chard close to the house makes the leaves easy to harvest all winter long and even the tough stems can be cut up and added to soups, stews
and stir fries. There is still time to replant those summer-weary container gardens with winter-tough herbs and perennials. Just rip out the past-their-prime petunias and sever the tops off seedy snapdragons and wilted coleus. Nurseries are still offering “Fall Magic” plants perfect for perking up containers. Make this the winter you enjoy your patio planters all year long by add-

Binetti FROM 14 Fall is when hydrangeas are still blooming while other flowering shrubs are long past their prime. This is a good time to pick out the perfect hydrangea for the landscape. Hydrangeas love our climate and thrive for years with very little care. There are hundreds of hydrangea varieties including dwarfs that do well in pots and climbing hydrangeas that will cover a garden shed or wall. Last year I wrote about my newly-planted hydrangea room. This space is still in glorious bloom and you can transform any partly sunny area into an outdoor space enclosed by hydrangea walls. I made compost piles right on top of the lawn then added some topsoil and planted hydrangeas into these new raised beds. The taller varieties go in the back and the dwarf hydrangeas are near the front so even in winter when you enter this garden room you have a vision of living walls. Here are my favorite hydrangeas for adding carefree color and autumn drama to the landscape: The Darling Dwarfs: Mini Penny, Buttons and Bows and Pink Elf These compact hydrangeas are less than 3 feet tall and perfect for pots on the patio or the front of a shrub border. The pink
Wednesday, September 22, 2010 • The BONNEY Lake & SUMNER Courier-Herald • Page 15 blooming ’’Mini Penny” in my garden flowers from July until October, survives harsh Enumclaw winters in an urn and has been growing happily in the same pot for four years. The Dramatic Paniculata Hydrangeas: Pee Gee, Angel’s Blush, Pinky Winky and Pink Diamond These are not your grandmother’s mophead hydrangeas. The hydrangea paniculatas have giant pointed blooms up to 16 inches long in shades of cream, peach and pink. Some, like the “Pee Gee” in my garden, can be trained to a tree shape while the “Pinky Winky” hydrangea makes a tidy 6to 8-foot hedge. The paniculata hydrangeas bloom on new wood so pruning them back in late fall or early spring will produce armloads of new flowers.
ed quite a sensation because the white to creamy blooms are an incredible size – up to a foot wide, held aloft by strong, straight stems. But what I find most incredible is the amount of abuse this plant will take. I’ve grown it in dry shade, lousy soil and also in a spot where moles and voles burrow into its roots. Still, “Incrediball” manages to bloom each summer. This is one hydrangea that needs pruning attention each spring. The heavy blooms need the support of branches that are cut to the ground every year. Expect this shrub to grow 4 to 5

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Spartans remain perfect By John Leggett
SHS Soccer
The Sumner High soccer squad bolted to an early 2-0 South Puget Sound League 2A mark as it first beat the White River Hornets 1-0 and then traveled to Eatonville High’s turf and blanked the Cruisers 4-0. At Sunset Chev Stadium, a true defensive struggle took place with WRHS, but Sumner striker Kaylie Rozell broke the scoreless tie with five minutes remaining in regulation time. Rozell booted in the goal off an assist by junior Megan Fenton and the Hornets were unable to answer,
as Spartan goalkeeper Alex Hoyt secured the shutout. When Sumner traveled Sept. 16 to Eatonville, Hoyt managed her second cleansheeting of the campaign with the help of her defenders. Taylor Hobart drew first blood 14 minutes into the drubbing, with an unassisted rocket through the Eatonville pipes. In the second half, the Spartans got an unassisted goal from Melissa Kocher, another score at the 50 minute juncture that featured sophomore Sarah Carter scoring off another
Staff Writer
Fenton assist and Rozell hammering the final nail into the Eatonville coffin at the 61st minute. “Kaylie is really quick, but she displays a whole different dimension as well with her physically,” coach Robi Turley said. “It’s like she is an offensive and defensive threat at the same time.” Sumner hosted a winless Clover Park contingent Tuesday night and hosts Washington High Thursday.

Salisbury pulls Spartans to win By Brenda Sexton
SHS Football
Tyler Salisbury rushed for three Sumner High touchdowns Friday night, but his biggest score of the night came on a fourth-quarter, 20-yard interception he ran into the end zone to give the Spartans a 27-21 win over Fife. “He starts both ways for us and plays special teams. He never comes
off the field,” coach Keith Ross said. “He ended up winning the game for us.” The victory lifted the Spartans to 3-0 and dropped the Trojans to 2-1. Salisbury rushed for 167 yards on 21 carries. His three TDs came on short runs of 2, 2 and 1 yard. His backfield partner in crime Cody Haavik also rushed for more than 100 yards.

For a while it looked like the Spartans weren’t going to get the win. Fife jumped to a quick 7-0 lead but the Spartans answered to knot the game at the end of the first quarter. Fife sprinted ahead in the second quarter with a 47-yard pass play and a 75-yard TD run. Salisbury put another six on the board for the Spartans and David DeVries kicked in the extra

Panthers rout Foss By John Leggett Staff Writer
The panther is known to be one of the most frightening big cats in the jungle because of the quickness and stealth with which it dispatches its prey. Those traits were evident Friday night when Bonney Lake High hosted the Narrows League’s Class 3A Foss at Sunset Chev Stadium. The Panthers dominated every phase of the contest as they shredded Foss 48-7, despite most starters sitting out the second half. Bonney Lake’s receivers repeatedly beat Foss defenders like a drum and sophomore Panther quarterback Chris Brown connected for five scoring aerials in the lopsided affair. Bonney Lake coach Chad Barrett credited his offensive line with the easy win. “Brown was not touched, not once did he come close to getting sacked,” Barrett said. “The linemen deserved the game ball for this one, because they really played Panther football.” Brown went 16-for20 passing for 256 yards, although he did toss a couple of interceptions. “I just have to keep reminding myself that Brown is only a sophomore who has basically played three-anda-half games in his short career,” Barrett said. Austin Marshall brought down five catches for a night’s work for 104 yards and touchdown grabs of 41 and 10 yards. Lee Boggan ran under a 45-yard rainbow for one of the second stanza’s three Bonney Lake touchdowns. The other tandem of passing touchdowns were to running backs Tyler Babukas and Marcus Kaelin. Barrett was also proud of his defense which held the Falcons to less than 100 yards of total offense. Panther special team performer Nigel HaywoodAnderson blocked a Foss punt in the first period and recovered the ball in the Falcon end zone for the tilt’s only defensive score.

Bonney Lake win streak continues By John Leggett
BLHS Volleyball
Although Bonney Lake High’s volleyball team has yet to begin its South Puget Sound League 3A campaign, it is off to a 5-0 nonleague run. After snuffing Shelton’s Highclimbers 27-25, 25-16, 25-10, the Panther ladies met with a bit more opposition when they traveled to
Spanaway Lake Sept. 15. The duel with the Sentinels went five games and Bonney Lake prevailed 15-13 in the finale. During those five games, senior setter Chelsea Merkel pitched in with 45 assists and 15 digs while upperclassmen Bailey Kinkel kept things going with 24 digs and senior hitters Taylor Watkins and Erica LeFevers combined

Lady Panthers sweep butterfly in opener
INLAYS AND ONLAYS Among the cosmetic dentistry procedures that provide restorative benefits are inlays and onlays made from porcelain or composite materials. Dental inlays are used to treat teeth with decay within their indented top surfaces. Onlays are used to treat decay or damage that extends to one or more tooth cusps. Both restorations usually require two appointments. One involves taking an impression and placement of a temporary inlay or onlay in or over the tooth. Once the inlay or onlay comes back from the lab, where the impression was used to create the restoration, it is cemented in place. Not only do inlays and onlays require less tooth reduction than a crown, they are durable enough to last up to three decades. We will be glad to discuss inlays and onlays and other options available to keep your smile a beautiful, happy one. At ADVANCED DENTAL GROUP, we believe in an informed patient, and we promise to provide you with information regarding all aspects of your dental care. You can always count on our experienced, honest recommendation for the treatment best suited to your dental needs. Our goals are the same as yours at 2617 Griffin Avenue—a healthy mouth and a brilliant smile. Call 360-825-2191 for an appointment. P.S. Inlays and onlays can also be used to replace old or damaged fillings with tooth-colored materials that will neither contract nor expand due to changes in temperature. 410734

Panthers score fifth win over Tornados By Kevin Hanson Editor
The Bonney Lake Panthers remained undefeated Thursday night, defeating the Yelm Tornadoes 5-0 in nonleague soccer action. All five of the Panthers’ early-season wins have been of the nonleague variety. A quintet of players shared scoring honors, starting with Tesla Pappas and Lindsey Handbige, who gave Bonney Lake a 2-0 halftime lead. Madi Adams added a goal in the 67th minute, Rachel Secrest scored at 71 minutes and Karissa Burnett found the goal in the 75th minute. Rendi Johnson and Madi Lowry split time in goal to register the shutout. Bonney Lake’s fourth victory of the season came Sept. 14, a 3-0 victory over Wilson High of Tacoma. Johnson went the distance in goal to preserve the win. All the scoring came in the second half, starting with a Savannah Moorehouse goal at 54 minutes. Carly Mingo scored a minute later to provide the Panthers a bit of breathing room and Adams tallied an unassisted goal at 60 minutes to polish off the scoring. Bonney Lake continued nonleague play Tuesday night with a trip to Bremerton. To comment on this story, view it online at www.courierherald.com.

Hernandez runs Panthers incredible race capture By John Leggett Staff Writer
Forty-three Sumner High cross country runners headed south for the annual Seaside Invitational Saturday, a huge meet that annually includes teams from the west coast as well as Nevada, Colorado and Utah. While all three of the “poker chip” races measured 5,000 meters this year, there were still varying degrees of difficulty for runners to contend with, including the difficult course’s mud pit. On the hard course in the boys division, which was comprised of a field of 532, Sumner sophomore Jose Hernandez ran what his coach, Kristin Martin, called an incredible race. Hernandez was the first Spartan to cross the finish line with a respectable clocking of 21 minutes, 54 seconds for 53rd place. Cory Brandt and Jobe Layton finished in 87th and 166th place with times of 22:30 and 23:55, respectively. Four Sumner ladies were brave enough to take the challenge of the hard course. Finishing with times of 29:28 and 30:00 were Natasha Wilson, 124th place, and Abby Hensler, 143rd. In the boy’s medium difficulty race, sophomore Coltin Tanner ran a smart race, finishing 79th with a time of 21:20. Tyeanne Lubking was the first girl finisher in the medium race with a time of 28:47 for 146th place. “Lubking told me prior to the race that she was going take it easy and enjoy the race, but she is so competitive, I knew she would end up working hard and finishing strong, which she did,” Martin said. The Spartan cross country team will quickly shift gears, because Thursday it will host its first South Puget Sound League 2A meet against Fife and Washington High.

At Saturday’s Fort Steilacoom Invitational, the Bonney Lake High girls placed eighth in a field that included teams from all over the state. Sophomores Marie Wilson and Sierra Espinal crossed the finish line 10th and 11th with clockings of 19 minutes, 57.5 seconds and 20:06.5, respectively. The Bonney Lake boys did not finish in the top 15 teamwise or individually. Bonney Lake’s boys and girls both had excellent showings Sept. 15 at Enumclaw High’s home course at Nolte State Park. Besides Enumclaw High, which hosts Bonney Lake’s initial South Puget Sound League 3A cross country engagement today, Wednesday, Bonney Lake also got a sneak peek at Kennedy Catholic, Highline and Hazen. Wilson was the trail-
blazer throughout the girls race, winning with a time of 18:46. Espinal came in five seconds behind her to claim second. The Panther boys were nearly as successful, featuring male runners Nolan Weber and Reed Hawkins coming in second and third place, with times of 16:21 and 16:24, respectively.

Fife buzzes past Sumner By John Leggett
SHS Volleyball
After bolting to a 2-0 start in South Puget Sound League 2A volleyball, demolishing Franklin Pierce and Clover Park, an inexperienced Sumner High volleyball squad was ambushed Thursday at Fife. “We ran into a buzz saw called the Fife Trojans and they carved us into a thousand pieces,” explained longtime Sumner coach Mike Fitzpatrick. Fitzpatrick said his team learned where it is vulnerable after losing 25-10, 25-19 and 25-4. “We are kind of going through some growing pains in this new league and are going in blind at times against teams like Fife that we’ve never faced before,” he said. Fitzpatrick added it is good to have an experienced setter at the helm like senior
Janille Panula. “Janille has been taking the bull by the horns so far this season,” the coach said. “She had 12 assists against Fife. She can’t do it all though, and I think this inexperienced bunch is starting to feel its way along as we go and figure that out.” The Spartans hosted Washington High Tuesday and makes a road swing to Steilacoom Thursday before heading into the heart of its league schedule against Eatonville and White River next week.

Brandon Barlow earned medalist honors in the Spartans’ 65-16 win over Washington Sept. 15 at Lake Spanaway Golf Course.

He and teammate Barlow shared the honor with a 2-over par 38 in a 68-40 homecourse win over Steilacoom Sept. 7. The Spartans added a 75-67 big win over one of the league’s top teams, Franklin Pierce, Sept. 9. Murphy earned medalist honors with a 1-under par, 35-stroke round at Brookdale Golf and Country Club. Taylor shot 1-over. The girls picked up their first win of the season 53-15 over Washington Sept. 15. Rebecca Turcotte, one of three returning seniors, earned medalist honors with a 7-over par at Lake Spanaway Golf Course. In addition to Turcotte, returning for the Spartans are Natalie Mohn and Karleigh Warner. Coach Steve Anderson also has newcomers in seniors Taylor Friermuth and Taylor Henken, and sophomore Olivia Durham. The new league, which adds an additional four matches, puts the girls in the heat of competition more often with less prep and practice time, Anderson noted. The Spartans suffered a 68-39 loss to Fife Sept. 13. League play continues for both teams with Clover Park today, Wednesday, and Steilacoom Friday.

PAIN IN THE KNEECAP The quadriceps muscles of the thighs act as shock absorbers for the knee joints. If they are not sufficiently strong to absorb the forces placed on them, the knees can suffer. Patellofemoral pain, which occurs at the junction of the kneecap (patella) and thighbone (femur), is one of the most common problems in sports medicine, affecting dedicated athletes and beginners alike, as well as older adults suffering from osteoarthritis. The pain is usually the result of overuse, patellar tendonitis, friction where the kneecap meets the thighbone groove, or patellofemoral arthritis. Fortunately, more than 90% of patients with patellofemoral pain improve without surgery. A workout plan that focuses on strengthening the quadriceps is particularly important. If you’re suffering from kneecap pain and your doctor suggests physical therapy to strengthen your quads, then call 253-826-8520 or 360802-6757. Our experienced and compassionate therapists provide hands-on therapy for all sorts of athletic injuries, from a painful patella to more serious injuries. We will work with you and your doctor to create a regimen that takes into account your unique needs. In addition, we can help with recovery from a car accident, a on-the-job injury, or surgery. Our addresses are 21525 Highway 410, Suite B, Bonney Lake and 2776 Griffin Ave, Enumclaw. Physical therapy with a personal touch. P.S. The kneecap (patella) glides within a groove in the lower thighbone and is attached to tendons that connect the quadriceps to the lower leg.

A
n integral part of the City of Bonney Lake’s community character is healthy, forested neighborhoods and tree lined streets. As an active participant in the National Arbor Day Foundation’s “Tree City, USA” program, the City always encourages retaining as many healthy trees in our community as possible. In the event that a property owner feels that a tree should be removed there are certain steps to consider before contacting a tree service or starting up the chainsaw. The size of the property, the size and number of tree(s), and the parcel location help determine whether a tree removal permit is required. There are specific guidelines in the City’s Municipal Code regarding tree removal and the possibility of a prescribed tree re-planting plan. Tree cutting regulations can be found in BLMC Section 16.13 which is online via http://www.codepublishing.com/ wa/bonneylake/. In some instances, such as on a steep slope or within a wetland or wetland buffer, a critical areas study may need to be completed by the property

onney Lake staff is working with the Park Board to update the Bonney Lake Park Plan. When completed, the draft will go to the Planning Commission for review, and then on to the City Council. As part of the process, the City administered a park and recreation survey. 450 citizens completed the survey. Respondents listed additional sports fields as the top priority for active recreation. A YMCA or community recreation center remains the top interest
for recreational facilities, with an indoor swimming pool as the main feature. Community gardens and dog parks rated high on the priority list for special uses, while trails and picnic shelters topped the list for passive recreational needs. A performing arts center and/or amphitheater rated the highest in the cultural arts category. Overall, active recreational facilities are citizens’ highest priority, according to the survey. !
