Every time Nels Melgaard puts his A-frame signs up on North Bend streets, he knows he’s breaking the law. He’s not happy about it, but feels he’s at an impasse with the city. He can still joke about it, though.

“Those are the criminals there,” he says, pointing to three sturdy A-frames lined up outside a shed.

Giving her time to remember Tanner Jeans’ legacy and promote safe bike riding habits, Snoqualmie’s Laurie Gibbs is the founder of the Jeans Memorial Fo u n d a t i o n , organizing the annual bike safety Rodeo, June 9.

Melgaard makes the distinction because he just made up 100 other signs—simple yard signs declaring support for his business, The Nursery at Mount Si just outside city limits on Southeast 108th Street. Since May 25, when he got the signs, people have taken more than 80 and put them up in yards around North Bend.

The yard signs were inspired by the A-frames, which Melgaard sets out every week to direct travelers to his business, and which city of North Bend staffers occasionally confiscate for violating the city’s six-year-old sign code.

The gift Meet Laurie Gibbs, Jeans Foundation leader

By Carol Ladwig Staff Reporter

By day, Laurie Gibbs deals with worst-case scenarios.

Her analytical mind is constantly turning over prevention methods and damage mitigation for prison lock-

downs, school break-ins, and worse.

For the rest of her day— she’s one of those people who seems to have more hours to get things done than the rest of us—her heart takes over.

She organizes events for the Tanner Jeans Memorial Foundation that she started.

Customers were steady at North Bend’s Liquor Store No. 179 as the clock ticked down to closing time Thursday, May 31, but the shelves and stockroom were eerily clean as the selection sold out.

Thursday marked the end of Washington’s 78-year state liquor monopoly, and it was a bittersweet moment for staff like Cheryl McGee and Shannon Joyce, with 14 years of experience in the liquor business between them.

“There’s a whole future ahead,” McGee replies when she’s asked by a customer what she’ll do now.

“Unemployment first.”

McGee is among the thousands whose fate changed when the liquor industry went private.

LIQUOR FROM 1

For state liquor workers whose stores were bought, it’s a disorienting transition.

“One day, they’ll be a state employee,” Carpenter said. “The next, they’ll be in private hands. I’m sure it’s going to be amazing for them.”

With Initiative 1183, approved by voters last fall, taking effect, North Bend was one of the last 35 state outlets to stay open until the final moment.

“This is their last day of business. They will close tonight,” Liquor Board spokesman Mikhail Carpenter said Thursday.

Before they could shut down, every one of the state’s 300-odd stores had to be inventoried and audited. If new owners didn’t purchase the state’s old inventory, it got shipped back to the state.

Stores were closed in phases because, Carpenter says, there’s only so much manpower.

“There are a lot of different pieces in play,” he said.

Contract store

New competition While the state is now out of the picture at Mount Si Plaza, liquor sales will continue in the former state store under new owners. The state sold that store’s license in an auction, Thursday, May 24, after a prior bidder backed out.

Diwag Suneel and Anar Ersel of Renton bid $235,000 to claim the right to sell liquor there. In the last few days, they have been preparing for the handover, and intend to keep some of the former employees.

“They’d like to see us keep our clientele,” Jayne, a store manager, told the Record. The new owners, she said, intend to offer a wider selection of products unavailable at supermarkets.

The new owners must secure a lease with the landlord, or may re-sell their license or request an alternative location in a one-mile radius.

Meanwhile, both grocery stores in town, QFC and Safeway, intend to sell liquor, as do other grocers in the Valley. Twelve doors down from the North Bend liquor store, between the bread aisle and the deli, cabinets at the North Bend Safeway were draped, already partially stocked with rum, tequila, gin, brandy and whisky. Both the North Bend QFC and Safeway were set to serve liquor customers on Friday, June 1.

I-1183 allowed retailers of big enough square footage, 10,000 square feet or more, to sell liquor.

The new rules mean that the number of sales points in Washington jumps five-fold on Friday, from around 300 to about 1,500.

Meanwhile, Washington’s old liquor distribution system is being scrapped. The state’s warehouse and contracted trucking companies will be replaced by private industry. Distributing compa-

SIGNS FROM 1 There are two problems with Melgaard’s signs, according to the code. First, they are “off-site” advertising, meaning they promote a business that is not on the same property as the sign. More importantly, they are sometimes set up in the city’s right-of-way on sidewalks, which is against city code as well as the federal Americans with Disabilities Act. “When the signs are in public rights of way, they impeded ADA accessibility,” said North Bend’s Community and Economic Development Director Gina Estep.

After he finds that his signs are gone, Melgaard goes straight to “the orphan sign pile” at the city’s Public Works building to retrieve them, or if he’s quick enough, to the office of Community and Economic Development, where he usually gets a reminder about the city’s sign regulations.

“It’s just an old code, and it’s this goofy little game we play,” Melgaard said, adding that he’s done it, off

North Bend Liquor Store employee Lori Laughren straightens bottles of rum on Wednesday, May 30, the day before the state liquor store transitioned to private ownership. Two bidders claimed the right to sell at the Mount Si Plaza site on Thursday, wMay 24. nies under the new law pay multi-million-dollar fees for the right to haul strong spirits.

Brian Smith, another spokesman for the Washington Liquor Control Board, said the state expects to make an additional $215 to 250 million in liquor-based revenues over five years.

State liquor taxes already in place—a 20.5 percent sales tax and a $3.70 per liter tax—remain.

New fees include a 1 percent distribution fee and a 17 percent fee.

State distributors, liquor suppliers who will move booze now that the state is out of the business— are also on the hook for $150 million in required license fees.

The human cost includes the roughly 1,200 state employees losing their jobs. Bidders on the state’s liquor store licenses were offered a discount on their bidder’s premiums if they kept employees.

Saying goodbye Lori Laughren, an employee at the North Bend store, had some hard decision making to do on Wednesday. With the new bidders on board, Laughren was among the employees who had a day to decide whether to stay, in familiar surroundings but part of a whole new business, or go on unemployment.

She admitted she had a hard time facing the looming change.

and on, for the 13 years he’s been in business.

“The last time I had to go get ‘em was a couple of weeks ago,” he said, and that was the Friday before Mother’s Day, traditionally a big money-maker in the nursery business. He’d put the signs out in the morning, saw they were gone around noon, and found them in the back of a city Jeep Cherokee at Public Works, where they stayed all weekend because Public Works was closed.

“It’s amazing when I ask people how they found us, they say ‘oh, I saw your sign.’… Those signs make a difference, $200 to $1,000 a day,” he said. “That’s when I thought, ‘what’s bigger than the city?’”

He wanted to “let people know why I’m doing what I’m doing and let them have the opportunity to… make a statement.” His intent was not to lash out at the city, he said, and he was surprised by the online conversation that began on the City of North Bend Residents Yahoo group after his yard signs went out. The thread included accusations of dis-

“I don’t want to deal with being on unemployment or being unemployed,” she said.

For Laughren, as for others, the transition has been a time of uncertainty. She and fellow staff frequently met customers who didn’t understand what was happening.

“We’re still getting people who think, ‘You’re just going to be competing with the grocery store,’” she said.

Laughren said her state job was never cushy.

She makes around $12 an hour.

“Everybody thought we made so much money: ‘Oh, those state employees!’” she said.

Many worked for state benefits, now vanished.

The state liquor board will continue to exist, focusing on enforcement and education. But while the number of liquor purveyors in the state is rising five-fold, no new money is being set aside for enforcement measures, Carpenter said.

The liquor board did turn down a Seattle-led petition to extend sales hours, sticking to the current 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. rule.

Smith told the Record that the state managed an orderly transition.

“Did this work out for everyone? No,” he said.

Initiative 1183 affected an entire industry in Washington, and its new rules satisfy some of those involved, but not all.

“Many of them didn’t like how it turned out for them “ Smith said. “We can only implement it.”

“Those signs make a difference.

I thought, ‘What’s bigger than the city?”

In Fall City, Tom Bergstrom closed his doors for an extended inventorying session Thursday.

Operator of the Hayditter’s contract store, Bergstom will weather the transition, reopening as the Snoqualmie Valley Liquor Company.

The one-man shop has operated in Fall City for 21 years.

“It’s been very difficult,” Bergstrom said of the transition. He found a partner to come through at the last minute, providing funds to buy the inventory and license.

Now, with the state out of the game, Bergstrom’s business will buy liquor through its competitors, the major distributors.

“They’ve pretty much got us,” Bergstrom said.

He expects costs to rise as a result of the new playing field—“Some of the stuff they’re selling us costs more than when the state sold it, with tax”—but Bergstrom hopes to be able to join with other independents in a cooperative, buying liquor in bulk.

Customers have been weighing in, many vocally unhappy about the change. Bergstom also knows he has a lot of support from the Fall City community. But his clientele, he says, “can only handle the prices so far...We’ve got a lot of stuff to figure out.”

Route’s end For about 20 years, the Pozzi Brothers’ white trucks made the liquor delivery run to the liquor stores in North Bend and Fall City.

Lately, the Kent-based hauler brought upwards of 400 cases a week to North Bend, Fall City and the Snoqualmie Casino, hauling it from the state’s Seattle warehouse. That history ended last week, when Pozzi’s and three other haulers’ contracts ended. Distribution companies will now carry liquor with their own private fleets.

For owner Tom Pozzi, the change means downsizing his business, and letting 10 good drivers go.

“I don’t think it’s an easy change,” he said. By Pozzi’s calculation, the state moved 20,000 cases a day, five days a week, by its haulers.

“Now, it’s going to be an all new way,” he said.

“It’ll get done. For me, it’s disappointing because we’ve delivered it for 60 years.”

things need to be addressed if the code is going to be amended.”

Melgaard is in full agreement. “I’m not looking for any special privileges from the city,” he said.

But after two “disastrous” springs and two falls without a pumpkin patch—a value of about $40,000 in sales and traffic for the nursery —Melgaard says the nursery needs to regain some lost ground. He’s building a fence in the next few weeks to keep the elk out of his pumpkins this year, but the school groups that used to visit his patch each fall have probably all found new pumpkin patches to visit, he said.

“I’ve got 8,700 pumpkin seedlings in my greenhouse, which I fully intend getting into the field, so we can have a pumpkin patch this year,” he said. “It’s not just the pumpkins, it’s fall color, it’s the whole fall season. It’s my employees working, not being on unemployment.”

Crimes of opportunity: Don’t panic, just prepare I

never dreamed our beat-up late-model Ford would ever pose a tempting target to a car prowler. But my wife’s gym bag under the front seat must have looked enough like a purse or laptop bag for an opportunistic thief to smash, grab and dash over the Memorial Day weekend.

The experience left me and my wife feeling angry, victimized and a bit mad at ourselves for leaving goods in harm’s way.

The bandit grabbed what he found out later to be a wad of women’s workout clothing, an unopened box of Band-aids, and one Snickers bar. Besides a quick snack, I’m not sure what good the bandit got out of this senseless smash. So much trouble for so little gain, when an ounce of prevention could have saved us a heap of worry.

For us at the newspaper, I’m the second of a staff of six to fall victim to theft in the last month—our publisher just experienced a home-invasion burglary.

We’ve had items stolen before, but never so close to home, and never with dramatic property damage. With the benefit of hindsight, it’s obvious that the gym bag should have been Seth Truscott stashed out of sight. Now, after Valley Record Editor we’re done vacuuming up the glass and filing the online police report , we’re left with the reminder that crime takes no vacation and needs only the barest of opportunities to ruin your day.

Thinking about these personal, petty crimes, I can’t help but sympathize with the Valley residents, be they the homeowners victimized in Snoqualmie Ridge, or the travelers and visitors who occasionally find their cars burgled at local trailheads.

It’s important to keep in mind that a lot of Valley crime, such as car prowls, are crimes of opportunity.

Thieves are after the quickest, safest score. It’s not that there is a major spree going on—since March, Snoqualmie Police have investigated just four burglary reports in the city of almost 11,000. However, all were on Snoqualmie Ridge, and are just the latest in an ongoing, chronic visitation of opportunistic prowlers in that neighborhood and throughout the Valley.

It’s so easy to prevent these things. Please, keep your car and home secure. Lock your doors. Store or stow valuables. Report suspicious characters, communicate with your neighbors.

When you leave your garage open, or your doors unlocked, or your goods in plain sight, you make it easy for the criminals. Take the extra minute or so to secure and hide the goods—or spend your hard-won time and money picking up the pieces afterwards.

If there are strange people knocking on your door, attempting to sell you something or just get inside, don’t let them. Ask to see their business license.

“If you don’t know them, don’t open the door,” suggests North Bend Police Substation’s Kym Smith.

Legitimate solicitors will carry credentials. If something seems downright suspicious, call the police.

We shouldn’t overreact or be afraid of crime in our neighborhoods, or let it scare us or get us down— the Valley remains a safe place, by and large—but the lessons of 2012, from the break-ins to graffiti to extreme violence, show that we allneed to be aware and careful.

With prevention, I hope this is the last time I discover our property smashed and stolen. If you do the same, perhaps the same troubles may never visit you.

amount of food we are able to provide to people in Fall City and the surrounding Valley communities.

The need in our Valley is great and growing. Last year, we assisted more than 220 families with food and household items.

This number will be surpassed in 2012, judging by how many new families have signed up for assistance from the Food Pantry.

We would also like to thank the people of Fall City for their overwhelming and generous response to this appeal and to other food drives during the year.

Spruce up the Valley’s memorial Last week, when I read that there would be a Memorial Day Service at the fairly new Snoqualmie Valley Veterans Memorial, I really thought the city of Snoqualmie would make certain this memorial, right across from city hall, would be cleaned up and weeded for this sacred service to honor our

fallen local heroes.

But this morning, when I had the chance to drive by, I discovered the memorial was looking pretty rough with all kinds of weeds growing all over the place.

So based on the same, I have to ask, where’s the honor and dignity everyone said this new Veterans Memorial would give to our fallen local heroes?

Mid-term report County Exec Dow Constantine discusses gains, objectives in Valley Record visit

By Seth Truscott Editor

Seeking a stable footing and regional cooperation, King County is reforming, says Executive Dow Constantine.

Laying out the challenges and successes in his first two years at the helm, Constantine met with business and community leaders during a stop in Snoqualmie Wednesday, May 23, facilitated by the Valley Record.

Reprising his 2010 visit to the Valley Record with a mid-term report, he took questions from local leaders on issues from

financial stability to flooding, tourism and homelessness.

The budget As Constantine took office, the county had been in the midst of a decade of fiscal crisis.

State initiatives, annexations and the recession had hammered the county’s budget.

Constantine had pledged to find efficiencies and build a culture of performance. In his remarks at the Valley Record, he laid out how that had been undertaken.

“We are managing the things that are within our control,” Constantine said.

Nine out of 10 employees— everyone except the police union—partnered with the county to waive part of their pay and save services and jobs.

“They chipped in by really starting to take ownership of

Last year, the county unveiled a new service tier system for its roadways, which continues today.

Major arterials will be taken care of, but for many smaller, local roads, “there are not enough funds to maintain them properly,” Constantine said. The county’s road fund has been nearly halved, and a sixth of the

roads workforce laid off.

“The net result is that we simply don’t have the money to take care of the road system,” the executive said. “Unincorporated residents are still stuck with debt for roads that are now part of cities. Half their money is going to pay for stuff that is no longer in the unincorporated area. That is all the result of the way transportation funding is structured, coming down from the state.”

The tiers are a triage system.

“Some roads, when they reach a certain point, if nothing

changes, will have to be turned into gravel, which is a sad statement for the 21st century,” Constantine said.

The county continues to seek relief from the legislature, in hopes of stabilizing a revenue stream in line with needs.

“These roads are regional,” the executive said. “The few remaining residents should not be asked to pay for a road system used by everybody in the region.”

Tourism opportunity Valley businessman Sherwood Korssjoen asked Constantine to consider road improvements on the county’s two-mile stretch of a scenic connector to a major wilderness area along the Middle Fork.

“This is going to open up this area,” Korssjoen said. “It’s a little piece that will finish a road that will look just like the road to Yellowstone.”

“It’s good to know about,” the executive replied. “We have to

show Olympia, King County, our citizens what it would mean to have adequate resources.

“It’s a perfect fit for where the Valley cities are,” he added.

“More and more, Valley cities are home to people commuting to Seattle…. The character will not be lost. The new wealth gives us opportunities.”

Flood work Questioned on what the county is doing to prevent flooding, Constantine talked about his role in implementing the direction of the Flood District, which is overseen by the county council.

“We’re going to merge the flood and ferry districts into the county, so we can get rid of all the unnecessary duplication,” Constantine said. “It’s interesting that the county council is willing to cede that authority to save the money. That’s how boughtin they are to the idea that we can work in partnership and be more efficient.”

Homelessness Relaying the story of a Fall City woman who fell between the cracks of human services, Mount Si Food Bank Director HeidiDukich asked Constantine how the county can help keep people in crisis off the streets.

King County is focusing on housing projects.

“The model our region is following is we want churches, charities, etc., to deal with this so we can focus on building the permanent housing that we know is the key to long-term success,” the executive said.

Remembering the fallen

Reents earns Eagle Scout honor with restoration project Eagle Scout Luke Reents was recently honored athis troop’s May Court of Honor, Saturday, May 20, at the Falls Masonic Hall.

Achieving the highest rank in scouting, Reents belongs to Fall City Boy Scout Troop 425.

He passed his board of review in January, officially making him an Eagle luke reents Scout.

Reents is a sophomore of Eastside Catholic School and a resident of Carnation.

For his Eagle project, the teen planned and organized a wetlands restoration project in the nearby natural wetlands area known as the Evans Creek Preserve on Highway 202. One hundred dogwood trees were planted, many blackberry bushes were removed, ferns planted and mulch laid, all surrounding an area of trails that encircle the preserve. The project was completed in September 2011, just prior to the groundbreaking event for the Evans Creek Preserve.

During his scouting years, Reents learned scuba certification and kayak white water rafting, and built endurance in hiking 50 miles in less than a week with his troop. As he puts it, “Scouting has influenced my life by teaching me skills that I will use for the rest of my life such as first aid, social skills and responsibility.”

Valley Veterans and patriotic residents of all ages gathered last Monday, May 28, at cemeteries and the Snoqualmie Valley Veteran’s Memorial, to honor local men and women who died in military service.

The group, which included American Legion Post 79 and the Snoqualmie Valley Veterans Honor Guard, honored departed comrades at the cemeteries in Preston, Fall City and North Bend and finally at the Snoqualmie Valley Veterans Memorial.

As part of the remembrances, veterans honored the four soldiers from Joint Base Lewis-McChord who were killed in May, including 28-year-old Sgt. Michael J. Knapp and 23-year-old Sgt. Jabraun S. Knox, who were killed by enemy rocket fire in Kunar Province, Afghanistan. Lt. Travis Morgado, 25, died when insurgents attacked his patrol with a roadside bomb in southern Afghanistan. Pfc. Cale C. Miller, 23, died in Maiwand, Afghanistan, after enemies attacked his unit with an improvised bomb.

The American flag was flown at half-staff from sunrise until noon, then raised to the top of the staff until sunset, honoring those who made the greatest sacrifice for their country.

A six-year-old black cat named Oscar found himself the center of attention during Mount Si freshman Sam Egan’s photo shoot, Egan was drawn to the imagery of Oscar exploring a trellis.

When he and a friend started playing with the cat, tempting it over with a stick, the teen photographer found his shot.

“I liked how the lighting was, how the cat stood out in the picture,” Egan said.

The freshman was one of eight Mount Si High School students who earned state recognition at the 2012 Washington State High School Photography Competition.

About 80 schools entered the contest with judges viewing nearly 4,300 photos earlier this month.

Two Mount Si students’ were judged as select finalists: Senior Jonathan Harrington, for abstract, and freshman Natalie Werner, for color. Less than 1 percent of the total entered per category received this distinction.

Six others received Select honors, which less than 10 percent of the total achieve. The top six places were chosen from those advancing to Select Finalist. Earning select awards were senior Maura Murphy, for her portrait; sophomore Rachel Mallasch, for her landscape; and seniors Alex Pease and Journie Kirdain and freshmen Avery Dahline and Egan for their animal photos.

The eight awards doubled the amount won last year.

Spring Football Jamboree is Saturday The 2012 Mount Si Football team began its spring football practices. Last weekend, the team attended the Ellensburg High School 7-on-7 and lineman challenge. Varsity and JV squads went a combined 7-0-1 while competing against high school teams from around the state.

On Saturday, June 9, Mount Si Football hosts a jamboree with O’Dea, Inglemore, and Interlake High Schools. Varsity and JV scrimmage games will start at 4 p.m. in Mount Si Stadium.

Powerful impact Mount Si Baseball’s T-Lane gets ESPN state nod; Other honors pile up for ‘12 Wildcats Mount Si High School senior pitcher and first baseman Trevor Lane got a rare honor last week.

Lane was named ESPN High School’s Washington Baseball Player of the Year, sponsored by Gatorade.

In making the Player of the Year selections, the ESPNHS organization looks at athletic impact in the season, personal character and exemplary academics.

This spring, Lane was 7-1 on the mound with 77 strikeouts in nearly 49 innings. He’s a 2011 first-team all-state selectee, who happened to bat .446 with 19 RBIs, 23 runs and 11 stolen bases— all while maintaining a 3.18 grade-point

average. Lane also volunteers for the Foodball campaign to help Mount Si Food Bank, and is a youth coach.

Lane thinks his nomination is all about his dual offensive and defensive skills.

He’s proud of the recognition. He has signed with Western Nevada Community College, but is starting to get Division 1 college inquiries. Brother Robb Lane is at Central Washington University, but Lane is thinking the South might be an interesting place to play.

Looking back in the past season, he’ll remember “the strides we made... We got real strong as a team.”

“It’s a tremendous honor for Trevor,” Mount Si head coach Elliott Cribby told the Record.

Now preparing for summer throws and training, junior Bradly Stevens claimed a state championship at the javelin.

Here, he wears his championship shirt for the first time.

Mount Si javelin thrower Bradly Stevens sets sights on Junior Olympics, more broken records It’s been a big year for Mount Si junior Bradly Stevens, and it’s nowhere near over yet.

Stevens was Mount Si’s winningest track and field athlete, earning gold in his sport, the javelin throw. His track career has arced like sports fiction, but the facts are true. Stevens hit a personal record and personal goal at the WIAA state track finals last week, hitting 205 feet.

“Two-oh-five was my goal and I finally hit it,” Stevens said.”I’d been stretching and working hard for it.”

“Everything’s just kind of happening,” he added, “Everything we’ve been planning for, everything I’ve been working for, for the past five years.”

He now holds the high “I still have school record at Mount Si, beating out his broth- next year to break that er Kyle, a Mount Si grad who’s now a junior at record even WSU. Their father, Dan, more.” was the unrestricted javelin record holder for Bradly Stevens Mount Si. There’s no family rivalry in this family of throwers. In fact, Bradly’s sibling and father push him on.

“They’re rooting for me,” Stevens said. “And I still have next year to throw even farther, to break that record even more.”

The gold that Stevens won at track is now part of a “big clump” of medals in his room’s trophy stash. More could follow, as Stevens contemplates a Junior Olympics competition this summer. He came in first for his age at nationals by 10 feet, and thinks he can hit 230 as a Mount Si High School senior.

The six-foot-three Fall City athlete is now lifting weights daily, every Sunday training with coaches Jan Olov and Dave Ovall.

While it’s early, the Wildcat thrower would like to study as a Cougar at Washington State, where Kyle attends.

“We’d be throwing together—that would be cool,” he said. “We help each other out.”

Tennis team competes in league tourney The Mount Si girls tennis team’s singles players Kelcey Sharp and Samantha Lindmeier, and doubles duos of Olivia Howland and Kerry Pemberton, and Sierra Morin and Cheyenne Dixon, competed in the league tournament Wednesday and Thursday, May 9 and 10.

Mount Si lost their first-round matches against Mercer Island.

However, Lindmeier, Howland and Pemberton, and Dixon and Morin won their second matches, putting them at day two, where they went out, ending the season Coach Jane Job said the girls had a good season, with a 2-5 record in which two of their team losses were by slim margins.

IMPACT FROM 9 According to ESPNHS, Kamiakin head coach Ryan Carter described Lane as the best player the Kennewick team faced all year.

“He plays a great centerfield, too, and in the game

www.valleyrecord.com

we faced them, he threw a runner out at home to end the game. He is absolutely a well-rounded ballplayer,” the coach was quoted.

Mount Si was the KingCo title holder this year, going 20-4 and competing in the state playoffs. Lane was a league MVP winner with

a league first-team award.

Head coach Elliott Cribby was coach of the year, and senior pitchers Reece Karalus and Trevor Taylor and outfielder Joe Cotto were second-team honorees. Catcher Zach Usselman, shortstop Ryan Atkinson, infielder Carson Breshears and out-

fielder Daniel Besmer had honorable mentions.

While Mount Si was unable to claim another state trophy—Cribby said he’d trade his coach of the year honors for another set of team rings—the ranked Wildcats did a great tremendous job handling a

challenging season.

“We played with the target on our backs all year,” Cribby said. “It’s something to be proud of.”

For the future, Mount Si reloads with a core of experienced seniors. Breshears, Cotto, Connor Swift and Gunnar Buhner are expect-

s

safety events in the state, each year. While she worries that the rodeo might be a hard reminder to Tanner’s family, all she has to do is look at the results, she says.

“It’s become a family event.

We’ve had anywhere from a high of 2,000 to a low of 1,200.

I know from that event we’re doing the right thing.”

The rodeo has grown just like the foundation, quickly, and tremendously. Gibbs is not really sure how either got so big so fast, but knew she had to start the foundation when she’d received $15,000 in donations for Tanner’s memorial within two months.

Since then, the foundation has established three simple goals: Increasing safety awareness among area youth; Promoting healthy lifestyle via sports -- “Tanner really loved sports,” Gibbs said -- and promote education. Toward these goals, the foundation has raised thousands of dollars to put on the annual bike safety rodeo, offer elite-sports program scholarships to Valley athletes, donate to various educational programs in Snoqualmie Valley Schools, and, in one of its first acts, establish two full scholarships to the University of Washington for one boy and one girl from what would have been Tanner’s graduating class.

Gibbs will leave the Valley in August when she moves to

Vi

She goes to her daughters’ (Lainie, 14, and Lindie, 12) school concerts and soccer games, and gets herself and husband, Max, of almost 20 years, involved in their community.

Some weeks, that involvement means speaking her mind at PTSA, school board, Chamber or Snoqualmie Valley Schools Foundation meetings, others it’s singing with a loosely-organized rock band made of her friends and neighbors on Snoqualmie Ridge. This week, it means finalizing the plans for the ninth annual Tanner Jeans Memorial Bike Safety Rodeo, June 9 at Snoqualmie Community Park, 35016 SE Ridge St. “I call myself, a processor and a planner, and I work in risk management,” she said, but “the Foundation work is a gift from the heart.”

The foundation itself is a gift, too, from Gibbs, and the many community members who came together after 7 year-old Tanner Jeans was killed in a bicycle accident June 23, 2003. Looking at nothing, Gibbs recalled, in a low voice, the accident, and how, with the then-small community gathered at the scene, someone suggested raising funds for a memorial park bench.

She volunteered to organize the effort, wanting to do something positive, to keep busy.

“I can either do nothing, or I can do something,” she explained.

Gibbs’ dual nature helps her, along with the fivemember foundation board, the Snoqualmie Police Department and an army of volunteers, pull off the rodeo, one of the largest children’s

Virginia, and she’s struggling with it. As a work-at-home consultant, she’s moved and travelled quite a bit, besides growing up on the East coast, and attending college in New York and grad school in South Carolina (yes, you can hear the drawl), but she said this move will be one of the hardest.

She leaves behind a community that she plans to stay involved in, although from a distance, and a foundation the she hopes will continue to flourish without her.

Tanner Jeans is, because of the foundation, still a part of the community. “To me, it’s like he’s constantly around,” Gibbs said. “Even for people who’ve just moved here… They know who he is, and that to me is extremely important.”
