Then there’s the most famous reindeer of them all, Rudolph.

And be sure not to forget the backup, Olive.

For the 23rd straight year, Cougar Mountain Zoo is hosting Santa and his entire team of flyers the entire month for its annual Reindeer Festival, which runs Dec. 1-23 and 26-30. “It is a very unique fun, family event, said Robyn Barfoot, zoo curator. “People get to know that reindeer are real, they do exist and they’re really cute.�

City Council gave a resounding “no� to the Highlands developer who asked for an unprecedented $3 million to complete a long-awaited business district. “I thought that was pretty outrageous,� said John Traeger, council president. “Nobody has asked for that kind of money before.�

The request would have come from the 2012 budget, which is being finalized next week. It would have made up about a tenth of the city’s total budget for next year.

The council is now waiting for Regency Centers to make its next move. So far it hasn’t presented a plan for what the Grand Ridge business district would look like.

It did, however, suggest including a plaza and about 1,700 parking spots for the 14 acres.

Presumably the money would go toward making the development more walkable.

When first conceived, the land was supposed to follow an urban village concept, which encourages people to walk to shops and drive less.

So far, the area has proven to be car dependent and there hasn’t been much retail, but there is still hope, Traeger said.

WHEW! Boeing, Machinists union show how to get things done

T

here is a sense of relief – along with a lot of smiles – in the region now that Boeing announced that it would build its 737 MAX in Renton and the Machinists have approved a fouryear contract extension.

To anyone who works or lives here or is concerned about the future of the aerospace industry in Washington state, the decision seemed like a no-brainer. But Boeing did look around, just like it did for a 787 production plant and a new world headquarters. We know how all that turned out – two low points on the roller coaster that is life with Boeing.

So, it should be clear that, as Gov. Chris Gregoire has pointed out, we can take nothing for granted. We are in a competitive atmosphere that spans the globe for such manufacturing prizes as the production of what’s been called a game-changing airliner.

That’s why it’s so important to credit one of the key players in the talks that ultimately led to Boeing’s decision – the Machinists. The Machinists and the engineers union have been on board the statewide effort to keep the 737 MAX production in Washington state.

Despite years of acrimony and strikes, the Machinists and Boeing found common ground. We all should thank them for their willingness to do what’s right for everyone. We like what Machinists Local 751 president Tom Wroblewski had to say: “This proposed agreement with Boeing is good for our members, good for the company and good for our communities.”

Of course, each side benefitted. But the point is they set aside their differences and gave a little or a lot to reach this landmark agreement.

That’s the type of leadership we demand from our political leaders in Washington, D.C., and Olympia. Our nation’s capital has become a bastion of do-nothings, hamstrung by philosophies that play to the extremes, leaving out all of us in the middle.

So, while Boeing and the Machinists have taken a critical step forward to keep the 737 MAX production in Renton, we must all work to ensure the success of Gregoire’s plan to keep the aerospace industry strong and even present in our state.

We must strengthen our math and science programs at all levels of education and train or retrain workers at such important twoyear colleges as Bellevue College in the skill that increasingly are necessary for the 21st century. Our four-year universities are wilting under Olympia’s failure to adequately fund education. That must be reversed.

So while we’re at it, we would also demand that legislators quickly approve the training and education package valued at about $9.8 million that Gregoire has put forth to ready our state to prepare future aerospace workers.

It was a good week in our state for the aerospace industry. Let’s build on that and get the rest of our economy moving ahead, too.

LETTERS THIS WON’T BE A PLACE WITHOUT ACE I needed to replace a bolt. So, naturally I headed down to the Sammamish ACE hardware.

Now I don’t really know anything about bolts, and about the only tool I know how to use is the dollar bill. I wasn’t worried in the least because I could always depend on the people of the Sammamish ACE Hardware store to solve whatever problem I presented them with.

So, me and my rusty bolt arrive at 8 a.m. and at the front door are greeted by a sandwich board informing me that the store has lost it’s lease and, if a suitable alternative is not found, will close sometime in 2012.

I wish I had the time to tell you all of the stories of good neighborliness that the Sammamish ACE hardware store has shown to me. I’ll just relate one here, I’m sure if you think about it, you too have many similar stories.

Some years ago I asked a clerk there where I could get my mower repaired. They sent me to the John Deere store in Redmond. Last year that store closed.

Last summer I had a problem with my mower so I called ACE for another recommendation.

I described my problem to the young clerk who took the call. He said he thought he knew what the problem was, asked me where I lived and said he could stop by

after work. He came by, fixed it and left without charging me a dime.

As a 75-year-old guy I remember fondly growing up in a small town with a Main Street lined with small friendly shops.

Sadly, they are all gone now. The Sammamish town center may be somewhere else, but Sammamish’s heart is at the ACE Hardware store.

Strung out on Christmas lights

M

y wife likes Christmas lights across the top of our house. I do. too.

That means it’s once again the annual struggle to find something — anything — that will work.

Call it the curse of the flat roof.

We have what’s called a French drain system on our roof. That means the gutter is internal; there’s no metal trough that runs along the fascia board.

That also means there’s no place to hook/clip/tie a string of lights.

Believe me, I’ve Craig Groshart tried. All I’ve got are boxes of lights to show for my failed attempts.

In the past I’ve tried stretching strings of mini-lights along the fascia. But they just sag. My wife doesn’t have to step too far outside the front door to give a thumbs down.

A couple of years ago I switched to C9 bulbs when I discovered they had a little clip on the side. Hey, I thought, this clip will slide up inside the flashing, giving me a perfectly straight line of bulbs.

That worked just fine except that the plastic clips wouldn’t always fit under the flashing edge.

Worse, the clips, being plastic,

would break off. The result was more sagging bulbs. One year, mid-way into the Christmas lighting season, I resorted to using duct tape and nails to straighten out sagging bulbs.

Have I mentioned that all of this usually happens in the midst of a cold winter rain?

Of course, with conventional incandescent bulbs, I can only connect two sets together. That means I also must make a trip to the flat – but slippery in the winter – roof to lay out extension cords. Did I mention that it rains in the winter around here?

It’s gotten so bad that this summer, when we were having some work done on our roof, I considered spending an additional $2,500 to have exterior gutters put on the house. $2,500!!!! Am I crazy? Well, I’m getting that way.

This year, in the spirit of saving the planet, I bought LED bulbs.

Wow, I thought, you can string 30 or 40 sets together. No more crawling around on the roof.

When I took the lights out of the box, I discovered that they didn’t have clips, but since they were smaller and I figured a couple hundred push-pins would be enough to anchor all the lights.

Unfortunately, these LED lights had twisted wires, which not only don’t straighten out but also end up pointing the bulbs in every conceivable direction.

My wife was even faster with

her thumb.

In desperation, I went back to the store (I think I’m singlehandedly keeping Lowe’s profitable along with helping million of workers in China stay gainfully employed) bought some more C9 bulbs with the plastic clips. They would supplement unused C9 strings I still had from previous failed lighting attempts. Yes, they still had plastic clips, but I figured if they just last this year I could redouble my efforts at a solution next year.

Did you know that different manufacturers put male/female plugs on different ends of the string? The result is that while half my light sets have clips facing the flashing, the other half face the street and, of course, means they won’t attach to the flashing.

I won’t say I’ve given up on the project, but more and more I’m remembering a old Seinfeld episode where George Costanza tells of his father’s effort to decommercialize Christmas.

“Festivus” anyone?

Jealous boyfriend smashes car windows

BY CELESTE GRACEY CGRACEY@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

The following information was compiled from city of Issaquah and Sammamish police reports: An ex-boyfriend smashed out three windows of his girlfriend’s Chevy Tahoe, after falsely accusing her of seeing someone else.

The girlfriend told police he often says such things and harasses her with texts and calls when he’s drunk. The ex-boyfriend uses the truck to get to work and makes payments on it, but it was purchased in the girlfriend’s name.

He told her he planned to drop off the truck Nov. 26. The next morning she found the car with the broken windows, but no glass underneath the car.

There were loose pieces still in the windows, so the officers thought the man must not have driven far from where the windows were smashed. They found the smashed glass at a nearby park and ride, and were able to match the safety sticker to the car model.

When they called the boyfriend, he told them the windows were smashed outside a club in Seattle, and that he didn’t report it, because he wasn’t supposed to be driving.

CHICKEN DISPUTES An employee at a grocery store on Front Street in Issaquah got into an argument with a customer over a piece of allegedly stolen chicken.

The customer, who contacted police, said the conversation got heated when he produced a receipt proving he had paid for the piece of chicken.

He was asked to leave the store.

When he walked into the parking lot another employee called him a “slave” Nov. 25. The man decided to contact police after that.

DRUNK DRIVES DOWN CENTER OF 228TH A drunk man argued with a Sammamish officer as to why he was pulled over, saying it was perfectly legal to drive down the middle of two lanes on 228th Avenue Southeast, because no one else was on the road.

It was about 3:30 a.m., Nov. 27.

During their conversation, the man was so nervous he started smoking a cigarette to calm his nerves. When the man failed a field sobriety test, the officer arrested him. He pleaded with the officer, saying the officer was about to ruin his life.

The 59-year-old then exhibited a roller coaster of emotions from

POLICE BLOTTER crying, being pleasantly jovial to argumentative. He told police that he was embarrassed, because he had children that were supposed to look up to him.

While walking out of the Sammamish police station, the man continued to argue with the officer over the reason for the initial stop, saying it was better for the road to drive down the middle.

BEAVERS HIT Two beavers were hit by a car Nov. 23 on West Lake Sammamish Parkway. At least one of the two died at the scene. Animal control was called to collect them.

ILLEGAL FIREWORKS There were multiple reports of illegal fireworks in west Issaquah Nov. 28, one incident including a mailbox being blown up.

At first someone reported hearing gunshots or fireworks on Jasmine Place. Fifteen minutes later and about a mile and a half away, someone called in a report of what sounded like gunshots from Oak Crest Drive, but at the same time someone reported hearing seeing flashes of fireworks

from nearby Pine Cone Drive.

Then, about 20 minutes later, someone called in about their mailbox being blown up on Forest Drive.

FENCE HOPPING Police confronted a man who was reportedly hopping fences and wandering through people’s backyards in Issaquah, when they learned he was looking for his lost cat Dec. 4.

They verified his story with a neighbor who also lived on the 200 block of Dorado Drive Northwest.

BAD DRIVING RECORD Police arrested a 19-year-old after driving about 20 mph over the speed limit on the IssaquahPine Lake Road Nov. 28.

After running the teen’s ID number, the officer learned he had multiple outstanding traffic tickets, which caused his license to be suspended. The teen knew about the tickets, and thought he had paid the ones that would have caused his license to be suspended.

The teen also didn’t know that he had a DUI pending blood result tests.

Knowing the teen’s reckless behavior, the officer decided to arrest him. The officer then drove

the teen home, and advised his parents that he shouldn’t be driving.

NEW JOB TURNS INTO SCAM A Sammamish man was scammed out of about $5,000, after taking a secret shopper job he found online Nov. 28.

The scammers sent fake checks to do the secret shopping. The couple thought they had been cashed, and had wired back about $5,000 to various places throughout the world, when they learned that some of the checks were fake.

Investigation with the postal office revealed that all of the checks were fake. The police took 20 pages of emails as evidence.

The scammer was linked back to a home address in California.

GRAFFITI IN ISSAQUAH There were four reported incidences of graffiti in Issaquah Nov. 30-Dec. 1, including spray paint at the Food Bank to tagging on the footbridge at 17th Avenue Northwest.

The other incidences were on Rowley properties and tagging on transformers along Lake Drive.

QFC Meat Donations Help the Hungry Meat is one of the few sources of wholesome, nutritious protein in food pantry visitors’ diets. But for many food pantry visitors, meat is something that rarely is put on the table.

Food pantries that serve the hungry often don’t have the resources to provide meat to the people they serve.

However, for several years now QFC has been able to help these agencies by donating wholesome meat products that no longer meet our standards for appearance or freshness. Last year, QFC donated 560,000 pounds of meat to food pantries in Washington and Oregon. This is part of QFC’s Grocery Rescue program.

“Healthy food is important for everyone, but particularly so for low-income people suffering from illnesses, as well as children and seniors. QFC meat donations enable people to maintain healthier lifestyles and give people the energy everyone needs to care for themselves and their families,” says Food Lifeline Grocery Rescue Program Manager Laura Johnson.

QFC stores are allowed to donate any meat product in good condition that is frozen on or before the date on the package. This can include beef, poultry, pork, and seafood, as well as pre-packaged meats such as fully cooked lunch meats and hot dogs.

When meat products no longer meet QFC’s standards for selling to our customers and become eligible to be donated, it is critically important that we maintain safe handling and storage procedures. There are very real cross contamination risks when handling meat. For that reason, we keep all meat donations separate by species while awaiting pickup. We use plastic tubs provided by Oregon Food Bank and Food Lifeline; the bins nest and stack and help us to separate meat by species in our meat freezer. All meat donations are frozen solid before leaving the store.

Practices we follow before donating meat products include: freezing to 0o Fahrenheit on or before the date on the package and separating the

meat by species.

A Food Lifeline agency that participates in the Grocery Rescue program says, “Thanks for the food you give to those in need. We are seeing an increasing need in our community and you are a big part of why we can help.”

By donating product that doesn’t meet our selling standards, QFC helped our neighbors and friends in

Western Washington and Oregon feed their families. This helps people get back on their feet after experiencing challenges like losing their homes or jobs.

Do you have questions about donations? Need additional info? Want to volunteer at a local food pantry? If so, please contact Ken Banks at 425-4622205.

Julius Boehm’s Legacy: The Garbusjuk Family and Boehm’s Candy

BY MARY SCOTT

In July, The Reporter printed “Boehm’s Candies: Remembering Julius Boehm.” That article took us through Boehms’ history from Julius’ birth in 1897 to his passing in December 1981.

This explores what’s happened since.

When Julius Boehm died of cancer at age 84, Boehm’s Candies was already a corporation; ownership devolved to a board of directors. Bernard Garbusjuk, Julius’ assistant and friend who had been with Boehm’s since 1972, became general manager. Bernard was a board member, and is now the owner. A second generation of Garbusjuks, Bernard’s son Tyson and daughter Narissa, have joined the company.

Bernard is “adamant about letting everyone know that Boehm’s Candies and the Edelweiss Chalet are Julius Boehm’s legacy”, according to Peggy Braeutigam in an article about Bernard. In 1982, Bernard asked Braeutigam, an Issaquah artist, to make calligraphic signs for the candy counter. “Each time they needed new signs, Bernard would walk through the door (of The Issaquah Gallery) and enticingly say, Peggy, I’ve brought you a goodie bag.”

Bernard knew how to “entice” folks into helping improve the candy company, and the community. Over the years, service organizations and community causes

IN THIS VALLEY have received Boehm’s generosity. The company became active in the Issaquah Chamber of Commerce, and in efforts to promote Issaquah tourism.

Bernard spent his first 17 years in East Germany, “at a time when freedom to choose one’s vocation wasn’t so good.

He knew his dream of being a veterinarian wasn’t possible there, so he moved to West Germany. It soon became apparent that he needed to earn a living; the fastest possible way was to become a pastry chef because his maternal grandfather was a well-known pastry and confectioner chef. He spent the next seven years as an apprentice in kitchens of some of the finest hotels and spas of Germany,” Braeutigam wrote.

Bernard concluded that to earn the title “Chef” would take many more years as apprentice. Then he met a Seattle restaurant owner who was visiting the spa; she offered to sponsor Bernard as an immigrant to the U.S. if he would cook in her Bothell restaurant. Within a year, Bernard moved to the U.S. He soon was working two jobs, in Bothell and Seattle.

Then Julius Boehm asked Bernard to move to Issaquah to work in the Candy Kitchen. Braeutigam says, “Julius proved to be a hard task master but an invaluable mentor to Bernard.”

ISSAQUAH | SAMMAMISH

In 1981 the Candy Kitchen had three retail outlets. Bernard increased their number. The mail-order business was enlarged. As business expanded, the facility was also expanded—several times. The most recent major expansion began in 1986 and took a year. By 1987, Boehm’s was reporting more than one million dollars in sales.

The “Chocolate, Wine, and All That Jazz” food carnival began in 1988 on Boehm’s grounds. A Chamber of Commerce event, it gives local food, wine, and jazz providers a way to offer their latest selections to annual sell-out crowds.

Bernard became active in Retail Confectioners International, a group of 480 candy companies working to improve the industry. Bernard served on their Board of Directors. Now Tyson Garbusjuk serves on the Board.

Bernard says, “Small companies sometimes try to be Costco, and they can’t.

Or, they try to stay the same as they were, and hang on. Boehm’s chooses a more stressful and demanding, but modern, approach. We try to be out in front of changing markets.”

Bernard’s wife Joanne was responsible for much “forward thinking”, especially ways to streamline mail orders, and to increase tourists and tours. Mindi Reid, an employee, tour conductor, and unofficial Boehm’s historian, says people describe Joanne quiet but strong, a person who communicated in a way that “oiled the wheels and united everyone.” Joanne certainly did that when this writer worked at Boehm’s. Although Joanne died of

cancer in 2001, her presence continues to be felt.

Others who continue to be felt include ageless retirees Rae Pickering, who started in 1956 when Julius opened the business, and Grace Tietje, who never told me what year she started making chocolates. Daughters of Grace and of Rae were also candy makers when I worked; at least one continues dipping chocolates today.

Boehm’s has been a first job for many local high schoolers. Lots of them work for years, then return from college to work holidays. Young ladies usually do sales; young men do clean-up, maintenance, and yard work. In some families, sibling after sibling has worked at Boehm’s. It’s that sort of place, but busy, precise, particular, and demanding. Currently there are 27 full time and part time employees.

Two years ago the unit was dismantled for budget reasons, and this June she was sent into North Bend to help with patrols.

Her heart, she said, is still in Sammamish. She was pleased to see people’s generosity continue.

“Times are tough out there. Money is tight, and they’re really, really giving,� she said. “There is going to be a lot of happy kids come Christmas morning.�

They made their first trip to the Cougar Mountain Zoo last December. “We talked about it all year,� Karen said, smiling.

Grace, who just finished feeding apple pieces to the reindeer, was quick to name her favorite antlered friend. “Rudolph, because of his nose,� she said.

She even had the answer for why his nose wasn’t lit up in the daylight. “Because it needs to save energy for when it’s dark,�

she said.

The Reindeer Festival is open from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., daily through Dec. 23. Pictures are available with Santa in his house through that time frame.

Once a special investigator for domestic violence, Amy Jarboe has a soft spot in her heart for children.

So when the King County Sheriff ’s department transferred her out of Sammamish, she continued her annual Sammamish Police project to collect hundreds of toys for children in need.

With help from the community, the station was piled high with toys for the sixth year in a row. The officers filled a moving pod, donated courtesy of PODS. The toys went to support the Toys for Tots program, run by the U.S. Marines. “I have a spot in my heart for the kids. I think Christmas gifts are a great way to show that people care for them,� Jarboe said.

She started the project while working at the Sammamish office and realized City Hall would make a great drop off site for the community.

Celebrate Christmas with us!

Story of Christmas unfolds in United Methodist Church lawn By Dec. 25, Joseph and Mary will reach the cow shed, attended by shepDr. Beryl A. Ingram herds.

The Magi will arrive later. We’re having fun and

we hope you will come by and watch the story unfold.

This congregation has a long history of community involvement. Maybe you are involved in some of these efforts, too: making meals for the Crossroads Feeding Program, gathering supplies for the Church of Mary Magdalene and Sophia Way, supporting Hopelink, sending clean-up crews to assist when natural disasters occur, participating in a Habitat build, and hosting and helping with Tent City 4. We look forward to hosting TC4 again in another year or so.

All the money raised in the gigantic spring Rummage Sale goes to mission

work, most of it spent here in the greater Eastside.

We love finding new ways to be a good neighbor, and on Dec. 17 we are offering a hands-on experience for elementary-age children who come to “Bethlehem Village� between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. while their parents go shopping or get other errands done. You can learn more about it on our website www.fumcbellevue.org, but basically we are recreating Bethlehem in the time of the Roman occupation.

Children will make new friends; chat with shopkeepers eager to teach them their craft and happy to talk about the exciting happenings; visit with some wise men

about constellations and the bright star they’ve been studying; use hammers, saws and hand drills to create their own miniature stable in the carpentry shop; and much, much more.

This year as an alternative to the divisive public discourse so rampant today, we are focusing on the ancient teaching, “Love Your Neighbor,� and we are getting to know our neighbors who follow the teachings of Islam or Judaism or Buddhism. Representatives from the various faith communities have been marvelous instructors, and our “field trips� to mosque, synagogue, temple, and this week an Orthodox Cathedral are invaluable connections for interfaith and ecumenical dialogue. We are into dismantling walls, not creating

them.

All are welcome at First United Methodist Church.

We are a Reconciling Congregation and enjoy GLBTQ individuals and families along with traditional families. We are also a Greening congregation, into recycling and composting, and we are working toward replacing much of the front lawn with native grasses and other low impact, sustainable plantings.

All this we do out of our understanding of what God is calling us to be and do: to be disciples of Jesus Christ and change the world by how we live. Come join us.

There’s a place for you.

Rev. Dr. Beryl A. Ingram is Senior Pastor at First United Methodist Church in Bellevue.

If you’ve driven past First United Methodist Church (1934 108th Ave. NE) in the past week you have noticed the characters in the Christmas story begin to populate the front lawn. These straw-stuffed figures are the brainchildren of members of the congregation working together for the joy of telling the real Christmas story in an unusual way.

Skyline girls look to build on last year

BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

Last year’s ride to the state tournament is one the Skyline girls basketball team won’t soon forget.

In fact, it’s something they’d love to duplicate in 2012. “Everyone truly valued that experience and have dedicated all that we do to put us in a position to potentially enjoy that again this season,� head coach Greg Bruns said.

The Spartans, who went to state for the third time in program history before losing in the first round to South Kitsap, bring back a key core.

Seven players return varsity experience from last year’s 16-9 team. “They all are driven, have a real passion for basketball, and are great friends on and off the court,� Bruns said.

Senior captains Megan Wiedeman and Allie Wyszynski lead the returning group. Both are post players and a force down low. At 6-foot, Wiedeman averaged a double-double last season with 11 points and 12 rebounds. Wyszynski scored six points and averaged four rebounds per game.

The Spartans also add 5-11 trans-

fer Shelby Kassuba and 6-2 sophomore Bryn deVita.

While Skyline is deep at the post, it also loaded at the guard position with the return of seniors Morgan Farrar and Susie Tinker, and juniors Haley Smith and Lacey Nicholson.

They also get back junior guard Rachel Shim, who sat out all last season with a knee injury.

All the depth at guard will make the Spartans tough to guard this season — especially due to their all-around size. “We not only have height but have some of our most talented and experienced players in those positions,� Bruns said. “We could conceivably start 6, 6-1, 5-10, 5-11, 5-8 if the matchups dictated.�

On top of that, Skyline is athletic. The Spartans plan to use their conditioning and speed to pressure teams and create offensive opportunities.

While a return to the state tournament might be ideal, Bruns knows there’s no looking ahead. “We all know and understand how difficult it can be in the KingCo conference, so our focus and attention is always in the here and now — each and every game, one game at a time,� he said.

Eastlake returns senior leadership

BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

With three starters returning from last year’s 21-4 team one thing is certain for the Eastlake girls basketball team in 2012 — the potential for success is high. “We have a great group of returning seniors who have played together for since about the fifth grade,� head coach Sara Goldie said. “We are really looking forward to a great season.�

Leading the way for the Wolves is University of California, Santa Barbara-bound Kendra Morrison. The 6-foot, 1-inch forward averaged 16 points and eight rebounds per game as a junior. “Kendra is a very Eastlake senior Kendra Mortalented player who rison returns as one of the makes her teammates top players in KingCo.

Issaquah girls loaded with youth, athletes

BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

With seven seniors graduated from last year’s 17-7 team, the Issaquah girls basketball team certainly had some holes to fill in 2012.

Head coach Kathy Gibson likes the way things are headed so far. “I think this team can be really good, I love the potential this group has,� she said.

Six girls with varsity experience and a key group of newcomers have helped the Eagles get off to a 5-2 start.

Eastside Catholic girls target consistent success

BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM

First-year Eastside Catholic girls basketball coach Cassandra Snyder is aware that it can take a team awhile to learn a new system.

She’s also fully confident that when her team adjusts, the possibilities are endless. “Personally, I have high expectations for this group of young ladies because of the talent and experience they bring to the table,�

Snyder said. “Once all the girls are on the same page and are more comfortable with our new system, we have the potential of realizing consistent success on the court.�

Snyder, who assisted at Lakes High School the last two seasons, took over a Crusader team that finished 6-15 in 2011.

She feels she has the pieces in place to have a much improved season in 2012 —

displayed when Eastside won its first two games against class 4A Bothell and Mariner. “I have a great group of girls here at Eastside Catholic — very coachable with positive attitudes,� Snyder said.

Leading the group of returners is senior guard Michaela O’Rourke. The 5-foot-9 guard averaged 17 points and three assists per game as a junior. “She can finish with both hands and a good decision maker by finding her teammates for an open look when the defense collapses,� Snyder said. “Michaela is a natural leader putting the team first. She will always go all out, leaving everything on the court.�

Seahawks’ linebacker coach Ken Norton, Jr. She averaged 11 points and seven rebounds per game as a junior.

The Eagles also return senior guard Taryn Holmes as team captain as well as senior forward Ngozi Monu. Junior guards Aimee Brakken and Quincey Gibson along with sophomore guard MacKenzie Wieburg bring valuable varsity experience.

In addition, Issaquah has some key newcomers, including sophomore Mandie Hill. The transfer from California is averaging a team-high 14 points through seven games. “She is a point guard with an offensive mind and shooter’s mentality,� Gibson said.

One thing the Eagles lack, however, is size.

Norton is the team’s tallest player at 5-10. “We know it’s a disadvantage, so we will need to work harder on the defensive side and on rebounding,� Gibson said. “Most teams seem to have at least one 6-footer, some have two or more — just not us.�

Issaquah plans to counter its lack of size with defensive pressure and an up-tempo style of play. “We will look to push the tempo but will need to take care of the ball in the process,� said Gibson, noting young teams can struggle with consistency.

As usual, goals are high for the Eagles, who have made the state tournament five out of the last seven seasons. Gibson thinks as the season progresses things will just get better. “The girls work hard, have pretty good team chemistry and are coachable,� she said. “They seem to really want to get better which has been a lot of fun.�

better,� Goldie said. “She is incredibly unselfish and sees the floor really well. Kendra is one of our captains this year and is someone who the team finds strength in.�

The Wolves also return experience at the guard position with starters Caleigh McCabe and Abby Carlson.

The pair were among the team leaders in assists last year, combining for 14 points per game. Eastlake would have a fourth starter

including 5-foot-9 Maggie Douglas and 6-foot-3 Marijke Vanderschaaf. According to Goldie, Douglas is smaller, but is physical and understands the game. She said Vanderschaaf has solid post moves and her size in the paint will be tremendous.

After losing its first two games, Eastlake has found a groove winning its next two.

The Wolves have high hopes of another successful season — possibly taking it a step farther than last year where they lost a pigtail winnerto-state game to EdmondsWoodway. “I would love for them to experience the joy of the ups and downs of a season, and the reward of hard work in the postseason,� Goldie said.

The Crusaders also return 6-foot-2 senior post Sarah Hill, who averaged five points and five rebounds per game. “Because we don’t have much height it is crucial to have Sarah inside for us on both ends of the floor,� Snyder said.

The economy, however, isn’t conducive to the urban village concept anymore, said Mark Mullet, a city councilmember and Highlands business owner. “I think if left to its own devices, the market is going to do something that’s more like a strip mall,� he said, adding that to get the walkability vision, the city needs to ask first what it’s willing to invest.

Other returners include senior guards Shannon Graves and Shelby Newell, along with junior forward Lauren Johnson and sophomore guards Emma Burnham and Ana Wu. The Crusaders have lost their last four games, but Snyder is aware that there will be ups and downs. In the end, she believes persistence will lead her team to a suc-

cessful season. “We have a handful of returning players with varsity game experience, who, together with our younger players are adjusting and transitioning to a new system,� she said. “Indeed it’s been a classroom on the court, however, I have seen improvement in all aspects of our game on a daily basis.�

exchange for structured parking and walkability.

Given a choice, he’d choose development now over waiting another five years for a more walkable development.

Timing is a major concern, because Regal Cinemas would likely pull out of the project if it can’t open by summer 2013. A theater is key in attracting high-quality retail, he said.

About nine out of ten city comments Mullet hears from customers at his Highlands pizza and ice cream shops are in regards to the need for more retail, he said. “It’s the single most important issue to everyone who lives there.�

Regency plans to work with the city to find a solution everyone can support, said Craig Ramey, senior vice president of the Regency Pacific Northwest division. He wouldn’t comment further on the plan.

The city council already approved a change to the development agreement that would allow for a gas station to be built alongside a grocery store. The council plans to continue to work with Regency.

When Regency presented its request in late November, city councilmembers were in deep discussions over $20,000 projects. The $3 million request was hard for them to even wrap their minds around, Traeger said.

The money would have had to come from allover the budget, from putting off transportation projects to cutting park funding and even maybe public safety dollars.

Finishing the business district in the Highlands is important, he said, “but you have to be realistic.�
