Chasing down a would-be purse snatcher

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@maplevalleyreporter.com

Memo to would-be pursesnatchers in Maple Valley: You might want to seek business elsewhere.

That’s what one man found after he allegedly attempted to steal a Maple Valley woman’s handbag at the new Fred Meyer. The result was a chase on foot, road block and eventually the suspect was caught and detained by citizens.

Laura Bingle stated in a telephone interview that she was just about to leave Fred Meyer around 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday, when a young man grabbed her handbag from inside of her car as she was carrying a grocery bag.

Rather than merely call for help, Bingle said she kicked off her shoes and pursued the suspect barefoot across the parking lot.

Bingle said outright anger made her chase after him.

“I had never been mugged before,” she said. “I had no idea what was I thinking. I was mad.

I couldn’t believe it. I was just thinking I needed to get my bag.

He must have thought I wouldn’t chase him.”

The chase continued onto Kent Kangley Road and eventually toward Summit Landsburg Road.

Seeing cars on the road, Bingle began to scream at them to stop the suspect.

“At that point there was enough traffic in the street that people knew what was going on,” she said. “He was running through [ more PURSE page 4 ]

If bigger and better was what Relay for Life organizers hoped for this past weekend then they got their wish and then some.

By the end of the CovingtonMaple Valley-Black Diamond Relay June 2-3 at Kentwood the number of participants was nearly twice as many as in 2011 and the number of teams nearly doubled, as well.

Co-chair Lacy Parker said Monday that the event far exceeded her expectations.

“I’m in shock and in awe and inspired, just amazed at all the support,” Parker said. “Just watching everyone have fun, watching everyone get into it, especially with a lot of new teams this year and not knowing how they would accept what was going on.”

The amount of money raised also exceeded what the event brought in a year ago by nearly $20,000 as the total on Sunday afternoon came to $73,301. That total could go up, however, as donations can be accepted until August.

When she saw how much had been raised, Parker said, she was

Crestwood Elementary finds new principal

BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@covingtonreporter.com

While Tom Shearer may be new to the Kent School District he is not new to education.

Shearer, who was recently hired to take over as principal at Crestwood Elementary School in Covington, has among the experience he’s

acquired in 32 years stints at junior highs and high schools as social studies teacher, principal and superintendent for a State Department-funded school in Nigeria.

A graduate of Mt. Tahoma in Tacoma, he later returned to serve as the principal,

Thomas Shearer

which included working through construction of a new school building in 2004.

Having learned much since his first day in the classroom, Shearer said, he is ready to bring his experience to

Crestwood. “I believe you give what you get,� he said. “It’s not reverse. You have to give and expect what you put in is what you get out of it. That’s really what I’ve learned.

People respect effort. If you give a high quality effort they respect your work.

I don’t take anything for granted. I’m going to work

to earn our community’s respect.�

His love for education first started when he was a student at a Catholic primary school in Tacoma and then a high school student at Mt. Tahoma. “I had such a great experience in high school at Mt. Tahoma,� he said. “I had great role models in my formative teenage years. They were people of high integrity, people who pushed me academically, people I think about almost every day, all the time still.�

The high expectations those role model placed on Shearer, as well as on themselves, left an indelible impression on him about the positive influence a teacher can have on a student. “They were smart people,� he said. “To know your business is one thing.

To care about the people in front of you is another.

They invested a lot of time and energy into me.�

When Shearer graduated, he attended Central Washington University, double majoring in political science and special education.

He then went on to earn his master’s at the University of Washington.

Shearer stated that although he toyed with the idea of being a firefighter for a brief spell, he had his heart set on teaching. “I wanted to be a teacher,� he said. “I wanted to have an impact on kids. I really admired what they (my teachers) did and how they went about it. I wanted to

emulate them. I know it sounds cliche, but it’s true.�

By the time he graduated in the late 1970s, the unemployment rate in Washington state was roughly 6.6 percent. “Back in those days it was tough to get a job,� he said.

He finally got his foot in the door in 1980 when he was hired as a social studies teacher at Stewart Junior High in Tacoma. “I was very lucky to get the opportunity to get a job and try to start a life instead of being a poor college kid,� he said.

Although Shearer said it was relatively effortless for him to grasp the curriculum teaching methods, he wasn’t as prepared when it came to maintaining order and consistency in the classroom “It wasn’t easy,� he said. “I had to work at it. I thought it would be a breeze, a piece of cake. But then I found out it was hard work. You have to plan for it. Not every class is the same. You may have a lecture plan, but it doesn’t always go the same for each class.�

He worked there for two years before transferring to Foss High School. Two years later, he was hired at Mt. Tahoma as an administrative assistant, and then was promoted to assistant principal in 1989. In the early 1990s he switched over to Lincoln High.

[ CRESTWOOD from page 2] call from the Tacoma School District.

The school district had a partnership with American International School (AIS), which runs private schools funded by the State Department. As part of the partnership, the school district often sent teachers and administrators to the schools overseas on a leave of absence for several years.

One of the AIS schools in Lagos, Nigeria, had an opening for an assistant superintendent, and the school district was wondering if Shearer wanted to go.

Shearer said he had known of the program and had been given very positive feedback about it.

But he didn’t know if the timing was right. He had just moved into to a brand new house he had built in Gig Harbor with his wife and two young sons. “We were living the American Dream,� he said.

At the same time, however, Shearer felt it was an opportunity he couldn’t pass up.

Finally, after thinking it over, Shearer decided to take the job.

It was a decision Shearer didn’t regret, as he called the AIS of Lagos one of the finest performing schools in the world. Run by a nine-member board,

COMING TO CRESTWOOD It was while working for the Seattle School District Shearer heard about the opening for a principal at Crestwood Elementary after Linda Butts resigned.

As the school board struggled to find a replacement principal, the board finally appointed Leonora Noble in August, who was to serve for the remainder of the academic school year. In March, however, she stepped down and the school board started to search for a new replacement.

Shearer said he was familiar with the Kent School District, but knew next to

The Fourth of July can be a frightening and dangerous time for pets as we celebrate our nation’s independence.

The loud fireworks can cause pets to become agitated, nervous, destructive or even worse ~ to panic and escape from home or become injured.

If your pets become agitated and nervous or are whining and crying try to distract them by playing ball, frisbee or laser (many dogs and cats love to chase laser pointers). This positive reinforcement can overcome their anxieties or at least wear them out so they sleep better.

Please do not console or reassure your pet with phrases such as “Don’t worry, it’s okay�. Maintain a regular confident voice, i.e. no baby talk or coddling. These things only reinforce the fear and anxiety by saying that there is something to be afraid of.

For many pets giving them a safe place to hide is the most comforting. Cats will often choose to hide under the bed or other furniture. For dogs providing a “den� such as a crate, bathroom or closet works well: the more confined the better. Try to get them used to this den well ahead of the Fourth if they are not crate trained. Do not pull them out from their hiding place as this may upset them more. Shut all the windows and drapes and play loud music with the bass booming to muffle the sound of the fireworks. Basements are often more soundproof than the rest of the house.

Keep all pets indoors or secure on a leash while walking. You never know when a firework will be set off and cause your pet to flee. Some pets will not go outside during firework displays. Take them out well before dark to relieve themselves. It is ideal if a family member can be at home through this time, as your mere presence is comforting as you go about your regular business. Make sure all pets have proper I.D. Collars and tags are their ticket

Specializing in Dentistry for Infants, Childrens & Adolescents.

Special care for nervous children dental health checkups.

As before, he accepted the position and spent another five years in Nigeria before coming back in June 2011.

Unfortunately, he returned to find the Tacoma School District didn’t have any work for him at the time. “I decided to take some time off,� he said.

He left the country again, this time working at the AIS of Cairo which was faced with a sudden evacuation in October. After the experience there, Shearer considered working for the State Department, but then was offered a substitute administrator position in the Seattle School District.

nothing about Covington’s schools. “I didn’t even know where Crestwood was,�

Shearer said. “The last time I came to Covington there was a four way stop on Highway 18.�

After interviewing with the Kent Superintendent Edward Leee Vargas, Shearer was offered to serve until they could find a new principal.

What attracted him to the position, he said, was the strong reputation of the school district. “Kent’s really on the ball,� he said. “There’s sharp people and they’re on the ball.�

Ironically, Shearer said he only intended to serve as the interim, and he didn’t apply for the permanent principal position until the last day available. “I thought, ‘What a nice community, nice kids, great staff,’� he said. “This is a nice place to be. I said, ‘I think I want to stay.’ I didn’t know what to expect. I just put my name in the hat.�

After a series of interviews, Shearer received a call informing him that he had landed the job. “There’s a lot of good things about this school that’s already in place,� he said. “I think we’re going to do a lot of great things here.

I’m an eternal optimist.�

home from rescuers. Microchip implants are an excellent backup in case a collar is lost.

Some pets need medication to calm them or even prevent them from harm. For pets with mild to moderate fears and that are non-destructive we recommend the use of two over-the-counter natural calming remedies called Rescue Remedy (liquid) and Calms Forte (tablet). For cats 2-4 drops of Rescue Remedy on the tongue works well and can be applied every 30-60 minutes if needed.

For dogs Calms tablets can be used together with Rescue Remedy. Smaller dogs can get 1 tablet and larger dogs up to 5 tablets, again repeated as needed. Both of these products can be found at health food stores and some grocery stores or pharmacies. Benadryl at 12.5mg for small dogs and up to 50mg for large dogs can have a mild drowsiness effect to help them sleep and again can be used with both of the above remedies.

For more severe cases an actual tranquilizer such as Acepromazine may be needed. This is very rarely needed for cats. Be aware that this medication can be very potent and may have side effects, such as altered behavior.

It does not decrease the anxiety and may actually increase noise sensitivity. Its use is to merely sedate a dog so that it is calmer and does not hurt itself or escape. It normally lasts between 6-8 hours. Note that this is a prescription medication and for your pet’s safety most vets require a recent physical exam. It should often not be given to pets with seizures, heart conditions, anemia, or liver disease.

For some pets anti-anxiety medications are a better choice than a sedative. Please consult your vet if you have any questions on these medications. Remember most pets do not need prescription medication even if nervous or upset.

Have a happy, fun and safe 4th of July.

â—? QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

June 8 , 2012 [5]

Whether ‘tis Nobler in the mind to suffer/ The Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune,/ Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles, And by opposing end them.� - Hamlet Act III scene I

The uncertain criminal mind Last week provided one of the greatest contrast of outcomes due to pro-active citizens I’ve ever seen.

On Tuesday, a man tried to steal Laura Bingle’s handbag out of her car in the Maple Valley Fred Meyer parking lot. Bingle could have simply called for help and not tried to stop him herself.

Instead, she gave chase and managed to get other citizens involved in the pursuit. People driving by helped cut the man off on the road, and one of them, Ron Read, got out of his car and tackled the man before he could flee into the woods.

All of Bingle’s belongings were recovered. No one was hurt. Even the Sheriff ’s Office spokesperson admitted, on the record, that she would have chased after him herself.

It was a happy ending for everyone — except the thief.

The next day, a similar incident occurred. A man attempted to steal a car from a woman in Seattle. Like Bingle, the woman also tried to stop the man.

Unlike the thief, however, the man, Ian L. Stawicki, who had already shot and killed three people, pulled out a gun and shot her before he drove away in her car. Eventually he killed himself.

The similarities and stark differences in these incidents didn’t occur to me until I read a very thoughtful comment someone posted on the story I wrote about Bingle, which I feel is worth quoting here. “While this story’s outcome was so rewarding we never know who we are dealing with in these situations,� Judy Williams posted to the Reporter website.

After reading it, I realized how things might have turned out for the worse in Bingle’s case.

The thief might have been armed and, like it is now believed about Stawicki, mentally unstable.

He could have either shot her as she chased after him or as the helpful motorist who jumped out TJ Martinell Staff Writer

of his truck on his way home from work went to tackle him. From there, it could have gotten worse.

At the same time, the situation in Seattle could have mirrored that of Maple Valley.

But it didn’t. And we really never know who we’re dealing with until it’s too late to change course. When a person is in the process of being victimized, they can either choose to let it happen or fight back.

In certain jobs I worked at, we were taught that if we were robbed we were not to try and stop the robber ourselves, but wait until they left before calling the police.

The logic was that trying to stop them would only lead to greater confrontation and a higher possibility for violence.

Around that time, a bank teller in Seattle was fired for chasing down a would-be bank robber, which had the same rules. I can’t help but wonder if someone contemplating a bank robbery wouldn’t be more likely to choose a bank like that instead of one where the tellers are permitted to take some initiative.

This leaves us with a very troubling conundrum. Do we as a society encourage people to stand up for themselves and fight back in a non-

violent crime, even if there is a potential risk of being hurt? Or do we consider it too great a risk?

At what point are people putting themselves in unnecessary danger and should leave it to the police, or, the opposite, enabling criminals who know that when they break the law no one will oppose them out of fear for their own bodily safety?

Whatever the answer may be, it’s not something that the government or law enforcement should take an official stance on. Promoting either side would most likely lead to one extreme or the other.

It would lead to the type of environment where people are murdered in broad daylight and others simply watch with indifference, or one in which undisciplined posses and vigilantes take the law into their own hands like Patrick Drum, who just this Sunday was arrested for allegedly killing two convicted sex offenders.

I think it’s a decision everyone has to make for themselves as individuals when that moments happens to them.

But ultimately it’s a choice we all have about how we respond, and with that choice comes responsibility and consequences. There’s always the risk that the choice is the wrong one.

healthy man to a frail, pale shadow of his former self.

Cancer may have won the battle against my father’s physical body. It put him in his grave much sooner than he deserved. But I believe Dad won his war with cancer.

As devastating as the cancer was to his body, it couldn’t dent the spirit and will of the man who remains my greatest hero. If anything, during the many rounds of radiation and chemotherapy, as doctors fought to halt the rampant spread of cancer through his body, his spirit and will seemed to grow and take on new dimensions.

My father, who served 25 years in the U.S. Navy before retiring as an E7 Chief Petty Officer, kept working long after chemo and radiation started. Five days a week he commuted to South Seattle, where he worked his second career, for the U.S. Postal Service.

I asked him why he did it. Because, he said, he still could.

I didn’t realize it then, but Dad already had a plan. One of cancer’s cruelest realities, especially for types like esophageal with

high mortality rates, is how the afflicted must prepare for the worst-case scenario while still trying to maintain a will to fight and live. Not just breathe, but truly live. And you do that by wresting what you can from each day left.

My dad did that with grace, humor and dignity. For him it wasn’t about quantity, it was about quality. And by investing time in his relationships, he made the most of his final days. He rekindled friendships with many of his high school friends in North Dakota, spending hours with them on the phone. He received visitors by the score, relatives, old friends and coworkers who travelled to that bright, cheery yellow house in Federal Way to spend time with Dad. He spent countless hours with my wife, my sister and my three children, just being “Papa.�

He reveled in the company of my uncle, Sheldon, and aunt, Shereen, and our closest family friend, Amy, who put aside her life in Virginia to spend months helping ease Dad’s journey.

And, most important, he spent all his time in the company of my mother, Shirley, his high school sweetheart and wife of 41 years. And

Ink in memory of my father I have one tattoo. It’s on the inside of my left forearm. Nothing fancy, just a simple, black, fouled anchor, the insignia of a United States Navy Chief Petty Officer.

What this tattoo lacks in intricacy and splendor, it makes up in significance. Wrapped around the anchor is a one-word banner – DAD. Below the tattoo the years 19502011 denote the 61 years my father, John Charles Skager, spent on this planet.

This past Sunday marked a year since May 13, 2011, the day esophageal cancer took Dad’s life.

From the time doctors diagnosed him in the fall of 2009 to the moment on that sunny, Friday morning when he drew his last breath, I watched him wither away from a robust,

The Heimlich Maneuver is one procedure that everybody should be familiar with since it can mean the difference between life and death for a person who is choking.

Someone who has started to choke can’t talk, breathe, or cough. Since no air can make it in or out of the lungs, the person may turn gray or blue. If the person can cough, let him or her try to cough the object up, but call 911 if there is a concern about breathing. Otherwise, become familiar with the steps of the Heimlich Maneuver in advance, or, better yet, take a local life-saving class in order to practice on a life-sized mannequin. Never attempt the Heimlich Maneuver unless you are sure the person is choking.

Although the Heimlich maneuver is simple and effective, it can be painful and even cause injury to the victim. It should be used only in actual emergencies, when it is fairly certain that the person is actually choking. In infants and small children, a different technique of the Heimlich maneuver is recommended. Discuss the proper first-aid choking technique for your child with his or her physician.

Money raised at the event goes to provide services for cancer patients in the Puget Sound region via the American Cancer Society.

The evening was punctuated by an appearance by the Tahoma High school

pep band drum line.

A video of the performance can be found online at the Relay’s Facebook profile: https://www.facebook. com/maplevalleyrelay. “I have to give a huge shout out to the Tahoma drum line,� Parker said. “It was darn cool. You’ve already been there for quite a few hours walking. Midnight comes around and people are kind of wearing out. This is my sixth year doing this event and never

in all those years have I seen that many people on the track in the wee hours of the morning.�

This year’s event, led by co-chairs Parker and Janet Swisher, featured two significant changes over past years: an earlier date on the calendar as well as a new venue.

Moving the event to early June and from Tahoma Junior High to Kentwood seemed to have the desired effect.

“I think the biggest highlight now that I look back on it was simply the positive feedback about the change in our location,�

Swisher wrote in an email interview Monday. “People were able to find us better, knew exactly where we were and were able to easily see us from the roads. I suspect that we had some people drop in to the event simply from driving by and seeing the event in progress.�

There were more than 40 teams, with more than 400 participants, up from 26 teams a year ago with some 200 more in attendance than in 2011. “I am still reeling from the event in the best possible way and am still amazed at the huge turnout and positive feedback that we received from our event,�

Swisher wrote. “It goes to show you that hard work, perseverance and having a spectacular committee behind you will pay off. We had the largest turnout our event has ever experienced.�

For Swisher, a cancer survivor who first signed up for Relay from her hospital bed during a 36-hour chemotherapy treatment, the event felt a bit like a scene out of the 1988 film “Field of Dreams,� when Kevin Costner’s character was told “If you build it, they will come.� “I felt like we spent the last 6 months or so building the structure for a great Relay and when Saturday arrived, they really did show up and in droves,� Swisher wrote. “It was so amazing to see our vision come to fruition and to hear how happy everyone was with everything that we had done. I know that some people not involved in Relay may think that our only goal is to raise money for the American

Cancer Society, but it is also about the physical and emotional experience of Relay: raising funds, but also coming together on that track with that common bond of paying tribute to our survivors and those who have been lost as well as bond with others who have experienced the effects cancer can have on a family and community.

Camping out on a track, walking and showing that dedication throughout the night when it would be so much easier to just donate money and call it good: that’s the difference. Cancer doesn’t sleep and neither did we!�

Swisher and Parker made a two-year commitment to serve as chairs of the event.

Parker, however, said if it weren’t for all the committee members Relay would not have been near the success it was this year. “We had a really strong committee this year,â€? she said. “We have set the bar high. We’re going to need more committee members ‌ so we can just continue to grow. We need the committee to be bigger, better and stronger.â€?

Given how well this year’s Relay for Life went, Parker may just get what she wished for again in 2013.

Surviving a scorching summer with Sedums and succulents try growing cannas in the pond. J.M., Olympia A. Welcome to the water world because cannas are can-do plants that will adapt to life in the pond or water garden. First, you need to repot your cannas into a plastic or clay pot lined with burlap or a thick layer of newspaper to block the drainage holes. Use a potting mix made for pond plants or make your own by using 20 percent potting soil and 80 percent sand. Mix this soil with water from your pond to make a thick “mud pie� in the pot. Then remove your potted canna from the original pot and rinse off the old regular potting soil before adding the fleshy bulb to the new pot with muddy soil. Leave 3 inches of room at the top of the pot and fill this with stones to keep the soil in place and weigh down the pot. Now you can lower your newly-potted canna into your pond or even a large water-filled container using a flat rock as a base below if necessary to keep the rim of the pot just a few inches from the top of the water.

Fertilize your canna monthly to enjoy the tall and dramatic blooms but use only fertilizer that has been made for aquatic plants. Never use regular plant food in a pond or water garMarianne Binetti

The Compleat Home Gardener

The second week of June is when your potted plants and hanging baskets start needing more water. Roots fill the container and there is less room for the soil to store moisture. Feel the soil by plunging a finger into the top inch.

If it is dry, add water until you see it run from the drainage holes. If you notice hanging baskets with limp plants it could be due to too much water or poor drainage – check the soil before you water.

Overstuffed hanging baskets in the sun or heavy bloomers like hanging petunia baskets may need water twice a day during hot weather. Here’s tip for easier maintenance: place a potted plant beneath your hanging baskets to catch the drainage water. This way you’ll be “potty training� your hanging baskets so they don’t pee all over the deck or patio.

Q. I love the tropical look of cannas and always buy a few of these large jungle plants to use in the center of container gardens. I have noticed cannas growing in ponds and pots of water in magazine photos. My question is, are these the same cannas as the Canna Tropicanna that I grow with good drainage in containers? I do have a small pond and would like to

Problem is, we have very little room as this deck is small and we are gone a lot and sometimes forget to water our plants. Yes, we have killed plants in the past but really need privacy and we need it very fast. I will read your column every week to find the answer and will read you forever if you have a solution to this problem! Don’t use my name or initials as I don’t want my neighbors to see it is me. Anonymous A. Buy a roll of bamboo or twig screening from a home center store and put up an instant wall of privacy. You can secure the screening material by placing a rebar stake at either end of the deck and secure the rebar right to the rails on the deck with duct tape or by using concrete mix in the bottom half of a pot to set the tall stakes of rebar into pots. You need enough tall rebar stakes to create a frame for the screen so it will not fall forward in the wind. If there is a roof on your deck you may be able to secure the screen from the ceiling as you would a roll down shade.

Q. We have a vacation house on Lake Chelan in eastern Washington. It gets very hot over there and often nobody is around to water the potted plants. Is there anything we can grow in pots that will survive without water for weeks at a time? T.N., Maple Valley A. Sedums and succulents to the rescue. The fleshy leaves of golden sedum Angelina can act as a groundcover or trailing plant to be a spiller in a container composition while the tall upright form of sedum Autumn Joy can be used as the thriller or focal point plant. Add the new and improved Hens and Chicks or sempervirens as the fillers to fill up any open space in the pot and you’ll have a colorful and texturerich planting that can go weeks without extra water. Sedums and succulents do best when partially shaded in hot summer climates and do appreciate a good soaking every few weeks after their soil is allowed to dry out. For more potted plants without the drama of drinking problems consider lavender, yuccas, rosemary and other Mediterranean herbs that adapt to heat and dry weather.

Kent Knights embrace philosophy change Youth football program will offer junior teams to feed directly to each of the Kent high school programs

BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com

Anyone who looked at the 4A state football brackets in November likely noticed a common thread among the teams — they all have youth feeder programs.

For the Kent Knights, a junior football program offered for youngsters since 1979, that model seems like one worth emulating.

This summer will mark a conceptual shift for Kent Knights as those who run the program, in partnership with head coaches from the four high schools which field football teams, go from a large one-size-fitsall to something tailored to feed into each high school.

Steve Delvo, president of Kent Knights, said the concept has been under consideration for a few years now. “We’ve got kids who play at all the high schools, so, we go to a lot of high school games,� Delvo said. “We don’t see the community participation you’d like to see. There are times on a given Saturday where there

are more people at a junior football game on Saturday than at the high school game on Friday night.�

While the idea of pushing all four high school football programs — Kentwood, Kentlake, Kent-Meridian and Kentridge — into playoff contention consistently in three to five years there’s a more broad intent behind the shift. “We’d like to get kids ‌ wearing their respective jerseys running around their neighborhoods at age 7, raising awareness and get the community more involved as well as getting more kids playing football,â€?

Delvo said. “When you have all your second graders and they’re all going to be playing together, they’re going to start that camaraderie and teamwork at a young age. We’d love to be able to have all those kids play in one program and playing together from the second grade. That’s a huge team builder.�

For Kentlake’s Chris Paulson, who will start his third year as head coach of the Falcons in August, envisions children embracing

their future high school as early as second grade. “I want 7-year-olds walking around the community with Kentlake Falcons stuff on,� Paulson said. “That’s what’s going to breed success, anytime you can get the community on board.�

And at Kentlake, Paulson noted, this new feeder program could be part of a larger effort to build community spirit while developing a strong culture as well as identity for future Falcons spearheaded by second-year Principal Joe Potts. “Joe Potts has done such a great job here at really trying to make some changes in this school and tie this school to the community,�

Paulson said. “This is going to be a huge step in that direction. Right now in Kent, kids don’t have that early connection to the school like they do in Bellevue and Skyline. It helps that they’re running similar schemes at the youth level, but, I don’t think it’s about the Xs and Os. It helps that there’s an extra 200 to 300 kids walking around with Kentlake [ more KNIGHTS page 10 ]

[10] June 8, 2012 [ KNIGHTS from page 9] Falcons gear on in the community.�

Paulson is also looking forward to the kind of football players he will get coming out of the Junior Falcons football program.

In the past, kids from the age of 7 to 14 could play for Kent Knights, but there were weight restrictions which made it tricky to get bigger kids in to teach them how to play line positions.

As the program develops, Paulson said, he said he hopes the kids will practice at Kentlake so the coaching staff can develop relationships with kids before they are freshmen.

Paulson is not the only Kent School District football coach excited about this shift for the Knights.

Brett Allen, who will also start his third season as a head coach this fall at KentMeridian, said not only will future players and the program benefit in the long run but he sees some critical short-term impacts.

“I thought this was a good idea because it would build a stronger sense of culture and it would help each high school build a brand from the ground up,�

Allen said. “That’s one of our big issues is drawing the talent from the hallways because our big athletes don’t play football.

We do get those kids who do come and take a peek who aren’t necessarily football players, so to speak. There are a lot of talent that walks our hallways and we’ve been trying to get those kids out.

That’s the most exciting thing about this for me, we took this over knowing we had to make a huge culture change, there hasn’t been a winning season in more than 15 years.�

This new feeder program, however, can help Allen and the K-M football staff build a culture of winning from the ground up.

It will help develop a sense of team, a sense of family, a sense of commu-

nity for the kids.

This could also help develop those friendly district rivalries from an early age so players are excited to get to high school.

Allen said he envisions third and fourth graders wearing their Junior Royals jersey to a high school football game on a Friday night.

But there’s also opportunity to bring his high school athletes into the process, Allen said. “Camps are a way to do that,� Allen said. “Just having a presence by having our kids go to their games, help by holding the chains and working their concessions stands. Those little kids look up to our players, they see them as football gods. If we can get those kids in front of the little kids and show them, ‘You’re part of this family.’ They’re building a legacy.�

The camp will be run by Kentwood Head Track and Field Coach Steve Roche, Assistant Track and Field Coach James

about junior football feeder programs.

Norris is a native of West Texas, where high school football takes on an entirely different meaning for communities. “It’s a philosophy change,�

Norris said. “It gives us some structure. Being from Texas, that’s what everyone has. What we have going here isn’t bad, it just doesn’t allow us to start developing kids in our systems to when they get here they’re learning easier.�

In a few years, Norris said, freshmen who haven’t come up through the Kent Knights program won’t have to re-learn fundamentals and won’t lose their whole first year of high school ball.

Norris has also seen this formula work here in Washington state. “In ‘04 when we played Stanwood, I remember going to the fields there and watching grade after grade after grade (of youth football) before our game ‌

and their stands were full,� he said. “Kent is a sports town, always has been.

There’s a lot of history here and a lot of tradition. This would accentuate that.�

This new approach could also allow the Kentwood community to grow closer.

While Kentwood is known as a sports power, Norris said, it doesn’t have a dedicated feeder middle school.

Having a dedicated youth football program Norris can see not just parents, friends and neighbors stepping up to support it. “With Kent Knights being the umbrella, it opens the door for businesses to support the programs versus ‘I can’t support Kentwood because I’ve got Kentlake students,’� Norris said. “Hopefully (this will lead) to more community awareness of our field use.

Then turn these things into events instead of something that just happens.�

Norris said the school definitely has the athletes

The Schedule runs a follows: Monday: Sprints and hurdles Tuesday: Long jump, triple jump and high jump

with the potential at Kentwood.

A dedicated program will help them learn the schemes early on, help the Conks run and maintain a successful spread offense because they’ll get quarterbacks coming out of the Kent Knights Junior Conquerors program every year, but more than anything it will help all the schools build relationships with the community. “It will attract families to our area,� he said. “It will help be part of the decisionmaking process. You have sports-oriented families and they want to find the best programs they can get their kids into and it’s benefiting the schools that have it. I think this will only help us. It’s going to take a lot of community support.�

In general, baby teeth that get dislodged are not re-implanted due to the risk of compromising the forming adult tooth.

For dislodged permanent teeth, do the following: –locate all of the pieces or whole tooth, hold tooth by the crown not the root and rinse gently with warm water if dirty. Never transport the tooth in water or scrub the root. Place the tooth in either milk or saline solution. The tooth has the best chance of survival if replaced within 30 minutes. Follow up with dentist as soon as possible. For more information about how to keep your child’s mouth healthy, visit us online at www.akidsplacedentistry.com
