Rainier School ducks veto, gets $3 million

By Dennis Box Editor

Gov. Chris Gregoire’s veto pen was poised to strike out $3 million earmarked for capital improvements at Rainier School in Buckley when some last-minute phone tag changed her mind.

The funds had made it through the Senate with the help of 31st District Sen. Pam Roach, R-Auburn, and the House budget with the help of Rep. Chris Hurst, D-Greenwater, and Rep. Cathy Dahlquist,

R-Enumclaw.

The representatives received a call from the governor’s office April 23, informing them the $3 Chris Gregoire million would be vetoed by the governor.

“After I got off the phone I called (House) Speaker Frank Chopp, (D-Seattle),” Hurst said. “He is tenacious.”

Chopp, who toured the Rainier

School grounds in November, told Hurst he would make the call.

“Fifteen minutes later I got a call from the govFrank Chopp ernor’s office,” Hurst said. “He said the speaker won. The governor is not going to veto the $3 million.”

Hurst said if it were not for Chopp, the Plateau economy would have lost the $3 million for

improvements to the school, which serves the developmentally disabled community.

“This is critically important as a commitment to the longevity of Rainier School and the Buckley economy,” Hurst said. “This is the best possible care for the state’s most vulnerable citizens.”

Dahlquist said, “This is the right thing to do for the residents and the people of Buckley.”

The representative stated the $3

After hearing how the city’s streets are deteriorating each year, members of the Enumclaw City Council declined to accept a low-interest loan that would have paid for eight miles worth of repairs.

An acceptable influx of new money simply isn’t available to repay the borrowed cash, the council agreed during an April 23 meeting.

Previously, the council had asked Public Works Director Chris Searcy to look at options for repairing the city’s aging, oftencrumbling asphalt. On the 23rd, Searcy responded with a “state of the streets” rundown, as well as various options for generating $3 million that would allow his department to catch up on repairs.

While sympathetic to the need for a smoother ride around town, council mem-

HURST Staying Connected

Congratulations to Buckley & the Rainier School!

In October of 1939 the Rainier School opened in Buckley. Although it has undergone many changes throughout the years, today, the Rainier School cares for our state’s most vulnerable disabled citizens. The Rainier School provides a home for these folks in a caring and safe environment. It is also an important part of Buckley’s economy. The Rainier School has never been a partisan issue as all of the members of your legislative delegation join together to support the Rainier School.

However, as an aging facility, it’s become necessary to do some remodeling to keep the Rainier School functioning properly. I am very pleased to announce that we were able to get $3 million in the Capitol Budget to move forward with these long overdue renovations, which will also provide income for local contractors and folks in the building trades.

New Balanced Budget Requirement

000000

During this legislative session major changes were made to how the state does business.

The most important reforms in decades, which passed with bipartisan votes, will help ensure that we don’t find ourselves in this much trouble in the future. We reigned in government spending and enacted significant efficiencies.

Although there were many reforms, one of the most important is a requirement that the state not only pass a balanced budget in the current fiscal cycle, but that the budget not create a deficit in the following two years.

This type of fiscal responsibility is something

that I have been working towards for many years and am very pleased that it was enacted by the legislature.

Re-Shoring

An interesting new word is popping up in America, it’s called Re-Shoring. Everyone has heard of the off-shoring and out-sourcing of jobs to foreign countries. This cost us millions of American jobs to countries like China. But Americans are now realizing that this has ravaged our economy. Who wants to save a couple of dollars when you buy a product made in China at the local hardware store if it means one of their friends or neighbors is going to lose their job? Are you tired of calling customer service and finding that the person speaks such poor English that you can’t understand each other? American built products = American jobs. If you buy products made in America, or even better yet, products made locally, you’ll be part of this new movement, bringing American jobs back home. In the legislature we worked hard in the last two years to make Washington a more business friendly place and to speed up the process of Re-Shoring. Re-Shoring, simply put, means bringing American jobs back to American shores. We can all help by shopping locally.

Mai Tai’s and Margaritas at Your Local Grocery Store?

Well sort of. Last fall Washington voters overwhelmingly voted to get the state out of the liquor business. Large grocery stores that

CHRISTOPHER HURST chrishurst2010@q.com

•

are over 40,000 square feet will be allowed to sell hard alcohol. Small grocery stores and convenience marts are prohibited from selling these products under the initiative voters passed. The old liquor stores that were owned by the state have been exempted from this size restriction and were auctioned off last week.

Although the state is leaving the liquor business I think it is time for us to reflect on this change and recognize that no matter who sells alcohol, we all bear a responsibility as a community to reduce alcohol abuse and driving. As far back as I can remember we have had yearly tragedies involving young people, alcohol, and car crashes. Although the rate of drunk driving fatalities has actually decreased in the last 20 years, a single life lost is one too many.

I spent 25 years as a police officer and have seen society’s values change. It’s no longer funny when somebody gets drunk and drives.

It’s much more common for a friend or a relative to ask a person to hand over the keys if they’ve been drinking. Designated drivers are now common place. But as we transition to private alcohol sales, it is a great opportunity for us all to talk with our friends and family members about how to intervene when someone drinks and drives. If all else fails it’s our responsibility to grab a phone and dial 911, and maybe save someone’s life.

Sincerely,

An Independent voice for citizens wanting solutions, not partisan politics.

Musicians, book lovers and friends bid farewell to Baker Street

BY KRIS HILL khill@maplevalleyreporter.com

aker Street Bookstore was on the verge of closing when just days before the iconic Black Diamond business was to shut its doors a white knight rode in to save it.

Patrons gathered on Sunday to mourn its closure, celebrate the joy the business had brought to the community as well as its owner, when it was announced that Kent resident Todd Hulbert was the white knight who had purchased the business from owner Bob Charles.

Charles explained that when he made the announcement on Sunday those in attendance cheered and applauded.

The deal was sealed just days before the store was to close, Hulbert said.

Hulbert, who owns an online clothing and apparel business, said he had books but no place to put them.

“My speciality is in Internet marketing,” he said. “Books fit so beautifully into that. I wanted to get into the online book business, so, I started buying very large lots of books all up and down the West Cost.”

Charles and Hulbert were able to come to an agreement, Hulbert said, and now the store will be home to 150,000 books he’s acquired.

After months of thought, Charles said, he decided in February to close the store and made the announcement March 1.

“I had been thinking about it the past six or seven months, business had been going down because of the economy and people switching to ebooks,” Charles said. “Then on March 8 I took a tumble and fell on my back. I like to joke that the bookstore was getting even with me.”

He woke up 12 days later at Harborview Medical Center with screws and rods in his back “and a whole bunch of nurses and doctors looking at me.”

His prognosis is good, though, and he is looking forward to retirement after owning and operating the store for 17 years.

Charles started the store in the north half of the building in 1985 after looking for the right place he settled in the small community because “Black Diamond seemed like home to me.”

As the business grew, Charles explained, he eventually took over the entire building which is 3,000 square feet.

One of the features of the business that many patrons at the going away event — which Charles described as a wake but everyone else called a party — said they would miss would be the live jazz performances on Friday nights.

That began with a simple conversation, Charles said.

“About six years ago one of my good friends, Doug Ostgard, he would come in and buy books, and we were talking about music,” Charles said. “I was complaining that the only

Lori McKenna, vocals, and Paul Jackson on drums in the background, perform with the band By Committee April 22 at Baker Street Bookstore in Black Diamond. Kris Hill, The Reporter kind of music you could get out here in southeast King County was country western. Not that there’s anything wrong with country western. He asked me what kind of music I liked and I said, ‘Well, I like jazz myself.’”

It just so happens that Ostgard is a jazz musician — he’s a saxophone player — and knew quite a few jazz musicians in the area.

Pretty soon musicians were playing twice a month.

Word got around among the jazz artists in the area, Charles said, and before he knew it there were three

performances a month by “a whole litany of different groups and performers.”

Bob Jay, a Maple Valley resident, while perusing “The Junks and Sampans of the Yangtze” on Sunday afternoon said he would go to all the gigs on Friday nights over the years.

Fred Davis, a horn player with the group of Enumclaw musicians who performed at the beginning of the event, said “this is a great event to celebrate all the great things Bob’s done for jazz over the years.”

Maple Valley resident Ed Monger, who taught music

for 30 years in the Tahoma Schools, said the free jazz performances in a corner of the bookshop were something the community enjoyed.

“People were free to drop in and listen,” Monger said.

“More importantly it brings jazz musicians to the area that we ordinarily wouldn’t get to hear.”

While the music may not continue at the store, Hulbert does have plans for other ways to make customers feel at home, and

the building will be his effective May 1, Charles said.

Hulbert said the plan is to close the store for 60 days in order to make a few upgrades around the shop as well as stock it with the thousands of tomes he’s purchased. The plan is to re-open under a new name, Finally Found Books, in July.

There is one, part-time employee, Hulbert said, whom he plans to retain and someday he may hire one additional part-time staff members.

Given the history of the business and the fact it’s the only bookstore within a 15-mile radius which serves not just Black Diamond, but Maple Valley, Covington and surrounding unincorporated areas, it was important to preserve it, Hulbert said.

“Bookstores are integral to any community,” Hulbert said. “Having a bookstore within any community is important. Books are so important. This particular store is an icon within the community because it’s been around so long.”

And Baker Street Bookstore can continue to be a gathering place in the era of e-readers.

STREETS FROM 1 bers shied away from the idea of going to the public for the necessary cash.

There were several options presented, all requiring fresh funding.

The first possibility is a loan from the Public Works Trust Fund, which is making a pool of about $400 million available this year,

Searcy said. The advantage to PWTF money is the low interest rate, which starts at 1 percent and works downward. Searcy said the city would likely pay a lesser rate, perhaps as low as onefourth of 1 percent.

Another option would be issuing general obligation bonds, but that would require 60 percent voter support. The city of Auburn recently tried that route and

www.courierherald.com

failed to gain even a simple majority, it was noted.

The city also could look at forming a Transportation Benefit District, which would generate money through additional fees on vehicle license tabs or by an increase in the local sales tax.

A final option – and the one recommended by Searcy – would be to use some of the city’s “banked” levy capacity. When cities do not implement the entire tax rate they are allowed by law, they are permitted to retain the unused taxing authority and use it at a later date. Enumclaw has a healthy bit of taxing authority saved up.

In the end, none of the options appealed to the council and the street-

repair issue fizzled.

“It makes me extremely nervous to commit to a loan,” Councilman Jim Hogan said. “I’m just not comfortable taking on the debt until we have a revenue stream.”

The city paid for a detailed review of its street system five years ago and, on average, city streets rated a score of 68 on a scale of one to 100. Using a model of “theoretical degradation,” the average has now slipped to 54, Searcy said.

He said it would take between $3.5 million and $4 million to return the city’s street system to where is was in 2007.

There are 39 miles of paved streets in the city sys-

Question of the Week

Have you changed your driving habits since the hand-held cellphone ban took effect?

I watched the April 24 Enumclaw City Council meeting with dismay when the topic of funding our streets came up for a vote. Since 2007 the city has paid consultants more than $27,000 to do evaluations of our streets. The findings were that the longer we wait to fix our streets, the more it will cost us.

Since 2007 our streets have degraded even further with minimal upkeep. No money was budgeted in 2012 to fix them.

Based upon the PowerPoint shared by Public Works Director Chris Searcy at the council meeting, the percentage of good-quality streets has diminRich Elfers ished from 62.8 percent in 2007 to 28.8 percent in 2012.

Additionally, our poor quality streets have increased from 7.6 percent in 2007 to 20.8 percent today. Five of the council have had to deal with this problem for 11 years. How long are we going to wait to fix our streets?

The council discussed the opportunity to take advantage of a .75 percent state interest rate public works loan for 15 years. The administration wanted to borrow $3 million to upgrade our streets. If we were to finish construction within three years it would decrease to .25 percent interest; if we finished in four years it would cost us .50 percent interest. There are currently no matching fund requirements. A loan like this does not come along very often. The issue that was the sticking point was that the council had to find a funding source for this loan.

Even one of our newest council members, Darrel Dickson, saw the financial advantages of such a loan.

He’s a businessman who knows a deal when he sees it.

The council was offered three potential funding

Letters Did they develop a new breed, like hazy holstein?

I was reading Wally’s column (April 18) and became intrigued by his mention of a “translucent veal.”

I have worked around animals most of my life and have never heard of this before. I was wondering if it was created perhaps through genetic engineering by scientists to develop a particular breed, such as see-through Charolais or hazy holsteins, or is it the result of a particular preparation of a cut of meat for the production of minute steaks and/or special weightloss diets?

Seriously, I am glad he had such a positive operation and appreciated his sharing his experience.

Tired of writer’s criticism of local fire department Mr. Qualls, are you done yet? For months now, you have brought your brasher, roughshod version of “Get Jesse” to this town while publishing personal attacks toward elected officials whose sole intent is to help protect the people of this community. As a nearly lifelong resident of Enumclaw and one of the taxpayers you supposedly represent, I can appreciate your time to investigate issues such as these that affect the people of this town – many of whom are elderly and on fixed incomes. I also believe that there are standards of professionalism one should follow when pursuing these types of endeavors, which do not include name-calling, personal attacks, bias, fabrication and presentation of fact and fiction, or getting thrown out of city council meetings.

I’d like to step back and tell you

a little story. I am a 1992 graduate of Enumclaw High School. Many students were fond of a particular science/geology teacher at EHS who really cared about his students and worked hard to let them know he cared. He used to work out in the gym either before or after school and was always there to boost his students’ morale or help them in times of need. Several years ago this teacher suffered a cardiac arrest at his home here in town. An important piece of Enumclaw was lost that day.

No one knows for sure whether or not he could have been resuscitated; however, community awareness was heightened and concerns were expressed as to whether or not a delayed response time by the volunteer system to that 911 call may have at least been a factor in the final outcome. Regardless, the citizens of Enumclaw never faulted the firefight-

Jack A. Morris (1918-2007) is shown standing beside the Caterpillar D-8 bulldozer he was operating in 1955 on Franklin hill, north of Enumclaw and east of Black Diamond. He was the son of Palmer Coking Coal Co. founder John H. Morris. A typical surface coal mining operation from this era first involved logging the timber in the area to be mined. A bulldozer would then remove the topsoil and anything else above the coal seam. The raw coal would then be mined with an excavator or a crane until the depth of economical mining was reached.

ers involved in that incident, but felt rather that the staffing system in place at the time was in need of revision. Thus began the movement toward a 24-hour, fully-staffed fire department.

AccordingtoCommissioner Dave Hannity, Enumclaw’s volunteer firefighters continue to play a huge role in those staffing efforts. I now sleep well at night knowing that our station has qualified volunteer and professional firefighters and EMT on call 24 hours a day. I also know that providing this valuable service costs money. As many different types of upstanding businesses do, the fire department and its fire commissioners did extensive wage and benefits studies involving other area departments in an attempt to bring their employees up to par with surrounding districts. This is a responsible, legitimate exercise necessary for quality service as the department brought itself up to area standards.

Wouldn’t you agree that employees who feel they are treated fairly perform their duties and tasks better and more efficiently than those that don’? In addition, our fire chief is now paid in line with area chiefs in similarly-sized departments, yet he does his

job without the additional help of assistant chiefs, deputy chiefs and other personnel that are often found in other departments.

Over the course of these past months you’ve been called out on several occasions by other letters for misrepresentation of facts. If any business were to operate based on one-sided, incomplete information obtained as carelessly and haphazardly as yours has been, that business would be discredited and no longer in business within weeks.

Let’s talk next about the new property bought in town – yes, I say in town because it was recently annexed into Enumclaw’s city limits, greatly increasing its value. A reliable source (city of Enumclaw’s Building and Planning Department) ensured me that, although the King County Assessment website says wetlands may in some way affect 75 percent of the property, there aren’t any official wetland studies or designations submitted by the EPA or other government agency.

King County’s online iMap system provides current mapping tools that delineate wetlands and other sensitive areas recognized on various properties. iMap corroborated the city of Enumclaw’s statement that there currently aren’t any “Sensitive Area” restrictions, including wetlands.

There aren’t any abandoned coal mines or 100-year flood plains either, in case you were wondering.

Here is another spin on this property. As a financial advisor, I’m sure you are familiar with investments for future economic planning.

This property is zoned R-2.

This designation makes it eligible not only for a fire station, but also for subdivision into 8,400-square foot residential building lots.

What am I getting at? Let’s do the math: property is 5.85 acres x 43,560 sf/acre = 254,826 sf divided by 8,400 sf/lot = 30 possible lots based strictly on square footage. Let’s go conservative and say 24 lots by the time you add city streets, fire department access, etc. If each of those lots sells for a conservative $50,000 each, you’re at a value of about $1.2 million.

Not a bad investment if you ask me, even after required capital improvements such as sewer extensions, etc. I’d buy in if I could afford it.

I’ll let the comment blog at http://www.courierherald.com/lifestyle/147390835. html# from The Courier Herald’s website do the talking in regards to your statements about Mr. Dave Hannity and AMR. I don’t have enough room (nor time) in this editorial to dispel all of the magic you’ve twisted here; however, I would like to

STREETS FROM 6 sources to pay back the public works loan over 15 years: Use just 22 cents out of the 89 cents per $1,000 assessed value banked capacity gained from turning over the fire department to District 28. That’s about $60 per year for a

home worth $250,000.

The other two options came from forming a Transportation Benefit District – an independent taxing district (like some cities have park districts) that has taxing authority to either: • raise car tab fees $20 without voter approval (probably politically suicidal); or

Rails to Sails Tracking the Sound's Industry Boom from Shore to Ship

• with voter approval increase the sales tax by up to .2 percent (about $30 on a $30,000 vehicle).

For some reason the council was unwilling to consider any of these options. Were they afraid of creating a debt?

Now the opportunity is gone for this year, creating even worse streets with higher costs in the future.

Since the council declined to vote for it, they essentially gave up the opportunity to acquire a large infusion of dollars to jumpstart a pavement management plan at historically low interest rates.

Streets are a core service.

Just look at the streets in our town. Some of them are an embarrassment. The council was elected to make difficult decisions. It takes courage to act. When will we get our streets fixed?

How long must we wait?

The longer we wait the more it will cost us.

ROACH FROM 6 Human Trafficking Bills My bill, SB 6257, adds “sexually explicit acts” to the crimes of trafficking and commercial sexual abuse of a minor. It was signed into law with the 11 other bills. We are the first in the nation to enact such tough legislation.

Saving Pensions In South Prairie This session I worked closely with local leaders. When South Prairie Mayor Peggy Levesque had a critical employee pension issue I introduced SB 5950 (regulating nonstate pension plans offered by towns) which was signed by the governor.

Fire Commissioners Request SB 6766 (addressing fire protection district commissioners) allows seven-member boards up from the current five. This bill was requested by East Pierce Fire and Rescue. Like some other consolidated districts it is now too large for a five member board to comfortably administer.

Protecting Rainier School The protection of Rainier School continues to be a major focus. I asked for $3 million for renovations to be added to the Senate budget and it made its way to the governor’s desk. It is subject to veto by the governor.

If the state makes capital improvements then there is less of a chance the facility will be closed in the future.

I also put a reasonable $100,000 in the budget for funding of a vision statement for Rainier School as it relates to the local communities. The measure may have been sabotaged in the House when the amount was upped to $600,000. The higher amount is not needed and makes it a target for veto.

If we lose the funds I will continue work on the project through my office.

The entire Pierce County legislative delegation supports the clients, employees and surrounding community in Buckley.

Unfortunately, there are other forces, including DSHS, which want to close the facility.

Unemployment Concerns I continue to hear from many who are still out of work and that concerns me deeply. I know what it is like as it happened to Jim and me when our kids were young. I will always remember what that was like.

The key to creating needed jobs is economic recovery. I continue to work for a better business climate that will provide job stability.

Accomplishments Noted This session I received recognition from the Association of Washington Business for my work to improve the business climate.

I also received the “Key” award from the Washington Coalition for Open Government. And, on occasion, I am participating in their panel discussions. I continue to champion government accountability.

Last month, I was at American University in Maryland to receive an award from the Women and Politics Institute for leadership among women.

Barn Warming At Our Home This summer, Jim and I plan an open house for our new barn. We now have room to have you all visit. Our new black Lab puppy will be waiting for you. Watch for a date.

As always, it is an honor to serve you.

Please contact me with comments or concerns. My aide, Cheryl Marshall, and I help on a variety of issues.

Join QFC in the Battle to End Breast Cancer In July of this year Susan G. Komen for the Cure® will celebrate the 30th anniversary of its founding as a nonprofit organization dedicated to saving lives and ending breast cancer forever.

QFC is proud to again be the presenting sponsor of the Seattle Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure being held on Sunday, June 3rd, at the Seattle Center.

Komen for the Cure has in some way touched every major breast cancer breakthrough in the last 29 years and has been associated with three Nobel Prize winners. Thanks to the many volunteers, sponsors and participants, the Komen organization has been able to raise and invest over $1.9 billion for breast cancer research, treatment and education. It has affiliate organizations in over 120 U.S. communities and relationships in 50 countries around the world.

Of the money that Komen raises at its events, 75% stays in the local community for breast health education, breast cancer screening and treatment and other direct help. In 2011, Komen invested $93 million in local community programs, which provided for 700,000 breast health screenings and diagnostic procedures.

The remaining 25% of funds raised support breast cancer research. Currently,

Komen manages nearly 760 active research grants totaling $300 million.

Those grants provide funds for research in: • Early detection, diagnosis, prognosis •

Biology

•

Treatment

•

Prevention

•

Etiology

•

Cancer control, survivorship, outcomes

•

Scientific model outcomes

Worldwide, breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and the leading cause of cancer death among women. More than 1.6 million are diagnosed each year. One in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed in her lifetime and breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among U.S. women 40 – 59. The work that Komen is doing to eradicate breast cancer is making a tremendous impact.

In 2007, economists estimated that Komen funded research and programs saved 4,500 American lives. Between 1989 and 1999 the percentage of women

aged 40 and above getting annual mammograms rose from 54% to 71%.

There are currently more than 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. Susan G. Komen for the Cure® has played a huge role in raising awareness and supporting research, treatment and education.

If you would like to join QFC in supporting the valuable work of Susan G. Komen for the Cure® there are several ways you can do so. One way would be to join us at the Race for the Cure on June 3rd. Every QFC store has been asked to create a store team. You don’t have to be a QFC associate to be on your favorite store team. We encourage family, friends and our great customers to join our teams. Ask

any of the store managers for information on how you can be on our team, to walk or run with us, or just to donate.

Asecondwaytosupporttheorganization is to donate at our checkstands. We have donation scan cards in $1, $5, and $10 amounts and also change jars for your spare change. You can also donate your bag recycle credit. We thank our generous customers for their great support and for joining with us to support a truly worthy organization.

Big-time gambling and big-time troubles When most Americans think of gambling in Nevada, they think of the tourist-oriented Strip in Las Vegas. With more than a dozen huge casino-resorts – some of the largest in the world – and their gaudy, colorful walls of neon, water ballets and spectacular streetside theater, there’s good reason for the Strip’s fame and popularity. It’s one of the most awesome and unique urban centers on the planet and, make no mistake about it, visitors come from all over the world. Everyone from British royalty to the crown prince of Saudi Arabia.

But the gambling mecca that Nevada celebrates goes beyond the Strip.

Excluding that sensational stretch within the city limits of Law Vegas there are more than 25 additional full-service casinos that are specifically designed to attract local people, not tourists. Indeed, the typical Las Vegas resident very rarely goes to the Strip, preferring the neighborhood casino just a block down

But before we jump into this first-class, irreversible financial circus, a note of caution is justified. Nevada is one of our least populated states. With the exception of the Vegas and the Reno/Carson City complex, most of the state is merely uninhabited, arid desert. Nevertheless, it leads the nation, year after year,

in such felonious crimes as murder, rape, aggravated assault, robbery and burglary. Furthermore, Nevada’s suicide rate is double that of other states, year after year.

And it currently has the highest rate of personal bankruptcies and home foreclosures.

Can all this be simply a matter of sheer chance, year

after year?

Despite these negative consequences, I predict full-scale, Washington statewide gambling is on the way, sooner or later.

And while we’re at it, let’s legalize pot and prostitution as well. If we’re gonna open one financial floodgate, we may as well open them all.

Count on it: traveling with kids will take some planning to your mobile phone. These will keep you posted and save you the hassle of going online and checking your flight status every few hours.

• Check in ahead of time. Many airlines allow passengers to check in ahead of time, typically within 24 to 36 hours of the flight’s scheduled departure. When kids are coming along, the less time you spend in line at the airport the better, and checking in ahead of time can save you from waiting in long check-in lines at the airport.

• Confirm what you’re allowed to bring on board.

Parents of very young children, be it infants or toddlers, should confirm what they’re allowed to pack and bring on board in advance of their flight. Sterilized water, for instance, might be acceptable to bring on board, but the airline might insist that it be stored in a baby bottle.

Contact the airline a few days before you plan to pack to learn the company’s guidelines. Different airlines might have slightly different guidelines.

• Explore the airport. Depending on if you will be flying a domestic or international flight, you might be

Many people enjoy traveling. The opportunity to spend free time experiencing other cultures or visiting faraway lands appeals to many people’s inquisitive and adventurous natures, and it’s no wonder retirees often devote so much time traveling the world.

Yet traveling as a carefree retiree and traveling as a parent to young children are two entirely different things; and parents’ love of travel is often put to the test when the kids are in tow. But traveling with kids doesn’t have to be a logistical nightmare. The following are a few travel tips for parents about to go on vacation with their little ones.

• Check your flight status. Flights are commonly rescheduled, which can be inconvenient for adult travelers who don’t have a couple of kids tagging along. For parents, though, extra time waiting at the airport with kids can be stressful and tough to handle. Before leaving the house, check your flight status to ensure you won’t be spending extra time sitting and waiting at the airport and looking for things to quell your child’s boredom. When booking the flight, sign up for flight updates that are sent directly

Enumclaw High lands new football coach

By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer

Mark Gunderson, who has been on the football staff at four high schools in seven seasons, has realized his dream of landing a head coaching job.

It was announced last week the 30-year-old Gunderson has been chosen to take the reins of the Enumclaw High program.

“This has been my long-term goal,” he said of running a program of his own.

Gunderson is a defensive-minded sort, figuring if the opponent is kept off the scoreboard winning becomes much easier. He said Hornet fans shouldn’t

expect to see a lot of wild offense shootouts under his regime.

“We’re going to have a rock-solid defense,” Gunderson said.

He was a three-sport athlete at Sumner High Mark Gunderson graduate who made the most of an opportunity to play for legendary coach Frosty Westering at nearby Pacific Lutheran University. He spent five years with the Lutes – including a redshirt season – and wound up as a three-year starter. His final two seasons, Gunderson garnered all-conference honors.

His first job was under Keith Ross at Sumner High and he coached two years with his alma mater. From there, Gunderson spent the 2007 season at Kent-Meridian, sharing defensive coordinator duties and overseeing special teams; in 2008 and 2009, he was at Kentlake, working with defensive backs, running backs and wide receivers; and the last two seasons were spent at Foster High School where he served as defensive coordinator. Last year, Foster advanced to the state playoffs for the first time in 22 seasons.

While his focus in on the defensive side of the ball, Gunderson knows what he wants from his offense. He has a

coordinator in mind but is waiting to see how other career opportunities shake out before making an announcement.

Gunderson’s offensive system starts with a Power-I backfield with some spread offense thrown in to keep defenses honest. But the intent is to run the ball down opponent’s throats.

“We’re going to be grinders, for sure,” he said.

Gunderson, who will teach physical education and health at EHS, replaces Don Bartel, who resigned in mid-March after four seasons at the top of the Hornet program. Bartel has taken a job as defensive coordinator for the Skyline High program in Issaquah.

Hornet tracksters post double-dual victory

WR lifters prepare for state Both White River High powerlif ting teams – boys and girls – placed second during a mid-April meet in Shelton, Wash.

Coach Juan Garibay reported many school Stephan Dominguez records were broken and personal records were set during the competition.

The boys lost by a point to defending state champion Montesano High School.

A second-place tie with the host school was tipped in White River’s favor due to the team’s two individual champions, compared with none for Shelton.

Sophomore Lucus Doll at 114 pounds and Stephan Dominguez, a senior at

242, broke the tie with their first-place efforts.

What really made the difference was the final lift of 300 pounds in the deadlift for Doll and the 450 pound squat for Dominguez.

Lucas Doll Seniors Brian Mitchell and Mikaela Kilcup, freshman Justyna Shilts and sophomore Gloria Rodriguez placed second; Garrett Quiles and Janel Shilts finished third; and Amedeo Gallucci, Caleb Maurseth, Julio Valdez, Tristan Knaus and Austin Ross all placed fourth.

Next up for the Hornets is the state meet May 12 at Northwest Christian High School in Lacey.

Hornets earn league victories

By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer

Behind Marcus Dickson’s blistering pace in the 1,600meter run, the White River High boys defeated Sumner Thursday afternoon in South Puget Sound League 2A track and field action.

Dickson’s time of 4 minutes, 5.83 seconds is the best in the state of Washington this season by runners of any classification.

A handful of teammates also won events as the Hornets coasted to victory on the White River campus.

Leading the way was Nick Wells, who won both the 100- and 200-meter sprints as well as the long jump.

Also taking first in their events were Chris Fisher, 800 meters; Wes Fueston, 3,200 meters; Devin Liebel, 110-meter hurdles and 300-meter hurdles; Blake Maresh, shot put; and Scott Anderson, javelin. The 4x100 relay team also took first-place honors; making up the crew were Brandon Dove, Xavier Russell, Josh Miller and Wells. The foursome of Coughlin, France, Crawford and Kunst teamed up to win both the 4x100 and 4x200 relays.

James a. “Jim” Rubado James Allen Rubado died April 23, 2012, from complications of Alzheimer’s disease. A longtime resident of Washington, Jim was born November 11, 1937 in Milwaukee, WI. He lived a very full life filled with family, friends, pets, and the great outdoors. He loved hunting, fishing, photography and driving his truck to get ice cream cones for his beloved dogs Skagit and Rocko. He started his adult career as an inspector at Boeing. Then, in 1968, he moved with his family to Enumclaw and opened Diamond Saw and Cycle. He was a self-employed log and long distance trucker for many years. However his real talents came to light when he went back to Boeing and worked on some of their advanced defense systems. He retired from Boeing after a 30 year career.

Jim could be counted on for applying a little “muscle” when you had a big job that needed doing. It was surprising when you saw the fine detail work he accomplished with his big hands on his HO gauge model railroad replica of a western town in his garage. And, he was skillful with woodworking, both practical and artistic. Jim served as Rear and Vice Commodore at the Day Island Yacht Club and was also a member of the Washington State Truckers Association. Most of all, Jim will be remembered for his wonderful huge heart that he wore on his sleeve, warm engaging smile, and love of life. He was always a family man who was happiest when his children and grandchildren were by his side.

He was predeceased by his father William “Cy” Rubado and his much beloved Grandmother Dora Kennedy Grupp. He is survived by his loving wife Carol Rubado, children Patti Adam, Jeff Rubado and Diane (Horace) Russell; grandchildren Britni, TJ Russell, Nicole Beale, Kaili Jo and Brienna as well as his mother June D. Rubado; sisters Joy Nobles, Margey Rubado, and Kathleen (Jerry) Nuernberger; and Grizzly, his black lab.

Jim undoubtedly is feeding carrots to his favorite horse Jar, playing poker with his grandmother Dora and walking through the mountains that gave him such peace and joy.

We stress special care & personal service to all

where flights are about to depart.

• Separate kids on the plane. If you have two or more children in tow, avoid seating them next to one another on the plane. This can lead to spats that will almost certainly upset your fellow passengers. Let Mom sit with one child and Dad with another, and give kids the window seat so they can entertain themselves by looking out the window when the plane is in flight.

• Bring your own entertainment.

Kids are going to get bored on the flight, so be sure they have plenty to do while in the air. Bring along a tablet with video capability to keep kids occupied with a movie or television show. This will help reduce the restlessness and boredom they’re likely to feel in the air. Or buy kids a new book or magazine at the airport so they have something new to occupy their time until the plane lands.

Traveling with children is seldom easy. But a few tricks of the trade can make the trip go more smoothly.

She studied at the University of Washington, earning a master’s degree in elementary education with an emphasis in art.

“This allowed me to explore a wide range of artistic mediums and methods,” she wrote. “I have continued to take art classes, keeping my hands busy and my mind occupied in the creative processes.”

Following her retirement from teaching in 1999, Berthon took courses at the Frye Art Museum, learning to draw and paint with oils and watercolor, to work with glass and carve stone. She also studied stone carving at the Pratt Fine Arts Center.

Some plants go out now, others must wait Q.

Marianne Binetti Columnist

What variety do you recommend?

S.H., Tacoma.

What a lovely idea.

Rhododendrons are one of the best shrubs for our climate, plus they are evergreen, some bloom in the shade and in the right place will live for years with very little care. For deep shade and early bloom nothing beats the pink “Christmas Cheer” rhodie and for windy or hot locations lavender “PJM” thrives with attractive burgundy foliage. For small spaces the compact “Scarlet Wonder Dwarf ” is a slow-growing charmer less than 3 feet tall and then there are the weevil resistant “yak” rhododendrons like ’Yaku Princess” or the furry and chunky “Teddy Bear” rhododendron. The yak rhodies have compact and tidy growth forms and leaves that have their undersides covered with a densely hairy and soft “fur.” It is this furry texture that makes the leaves more resistant to insects. Enjoy your search for

the perfect rhododendron; you can’t choose wrong even if you simply pick a plant with the best-looking blooms.

My question is about an old lilac shrub. The winter ice storm split and broke many stems and it has not been blooming well for years. Should I cut it to the ground? Dig it up?

Help! W., email.

Lackluster lilacs can be renovated with an extreme makeover. Grab a saw and chop it all down. You’ll soon see new shoots and after a threeyear wait your lilac could bloom again. Pruning right after blooming is the general rule of green thumb. You might also consider replacing your weary lilac with a fresh new variety. Life’s too short to put up with ugly plants and plants are not like children – you do not owe them a lifetime of commitment.

New and improved lilacs shrubs include the compact dwarf Miss Kim, the repeat blooming Bloomerang that flowers once in the spring and again in the summer, and the more shade-tolerant President Lincoln lilac. You can find lilacs in white, pink, deep purple and even wine-red colors. Lilacs love full sun, wind and good drainage. For the best blooms do not overwater your lilacs.

Pastor: Dan Martin

“A Joyful Family Centered in Christ”

Q.

I have a nandina domestica or heavenly bamboo plant that has grown taller but the lower half of this shrub is leafless. Plus, I see some black stems.

What should I do? R.T., Buckley.

Get some courage, sharpen the saw and cut that baby down to a few stumps.

Nandina, hebe, spiraea and plenty of other winter weary shrubs will reinvent themselves as healthy, happy plants after a drastic spring pruning.

What perennials or plants that are easy to grow should I plant in a shaded area? There are also tree roots so the soil is dry. Nothing wants to grow in this spot. C.B., email Dry shade is tough for most plants but if you add some compost and water well the first year you’ll have some luck with lamiums, heucheras, euphorbias, vinca, pachysandra, sword ferns and a new golden sedum called sedum

A.

Q. A.

Angelina. Plant some rocks and boulders as well. You can’t kill a good rock.

I love lavender plants.

Can I grow lavender in the shade? S., email.

Don’t even think about it.

The Compleat Home Gardener

617271

May Day! May Day! All hands on deck – and patio – as this is the week to fill your container gardens and window boxes with geraniums, bacopa, lobelia and petunias. Wait a few more weeks to set out heat-loving annuals like zinnias, marigolds, impatiens and coleus. These could suffer from the cool nights even if they don’t get hit by a frost.

The most weather-resistant and adaptable annuals that will thrive outdoors now are pansies, violas, lobelia, alyssum, bacopa, vinca, and dianthus. Add more color with the silvery foliage of Dusty Miller or deep purple leaves of heuchera, “Black Scallop” ajuga, black mondo grass or hardy perennial plants mixed in with your annuals.

Most hanging baskets will thrive outdoors this time of year but only if they are under the protection of a roof eave or covered patio. All plants grown in a comfy greenhouse appreciate some “hardening off” or gradual introduction to the cold cruel world.

Bring them home but keep them protected the first few nights by moving them into a garage or under cover. If a late frost or hail storm threatens, drape a sheet or other light covering atop the plants.

I am going to give a rhododendron as a gift.

HOW A FAMILY-OWNED FERRY SERVICE IS

GOING THE DISTANCE FOR LOCAL RESIDENTS — AND THE SEATTLE ECONOMY.

For more than 25 years, the iconic red-and-blue Clipper fleet has been ferrying commuters and vacationers alike between Seattle, Victoria, B.C. and the spectacular San Juan Islands. To keep the fleet as modern and comfortable as possible for passengers, Clipper Vacations began working with Bank of America in 2007.

We initially helped by restructuring loans that enabled engine upgrades, allowing the fleet to reach speeds of up to 30 knots. More recently, we provided financing to modernize the fleet’s interior cabins. It’s a relationship that’s not only helping to get Seattle residents where they need to go — it’s also helping to generate local economic growth: the family-owned fleet employs 150 people.

Clipper is another example of how we’re working to help locally based businesses grow and hire in the Puget Sound — and across the country. In 2011, we provided $222 million in new credit to small businesses in Washington — an increase of 28% from 2010.
