Donations of shoes to help foster children
Couple hit by car outside Walmart

Dozens of families in and around Maple Valley have opened their homes to foster children. Those youngsters often have many basic needs when they come into foster care, among them a pair of shoes. When Kim Emmons learned about this from Lisa Wiscomb, who is the coordinator of the Fostering Together group that has met in Maple MAPLE Valley for more VALLEY than a year, it made sense to find a way to make sure the roughly 100 foster kids in Maple Valley got shoes for Christmas. Emmons, who owns and operates John L. Scott of Maple Valley in Four Corners with her husband, Jack, has learned quite a bit about the foster care system this year. The couple brought a baby into their home in May. It was through that Emmons discovered the Fostering Together group, which meets monthly to provide support, training and friendship to local families who
A 71-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of vehicular assault for allegedly hitting a man and woman outside the Covington Walmart around 8:10 p.m. on Thanksgiving, Nov. 22,, according to King County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman Cindi West. According to West’s Twitter account, the man and woman were hit by a red SUV in the Walmart parking lot in COVINGTON front of the entrance. The woman was trapped temporarily underneath the vehicle while the man was thrown on top of it. Both were taken to Harborview Medical Center. According to West, the woman is in serious condition, but is expected to recover, while the man is in good condition. The suspect was arrested on suspicion of vehicular assault. He was subject to a mandated blood draw and then released to his family. The Sheriff ’s Office is waiting for the toxicology report, which is expected to be complete in midDecember.

Relay for Life organizers kick off planning for bigger 2013 event BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
Though the next CovingtonMaple Valley-Black Diamond Relay for Life is more than six months away it’s never too early to get ready. Lacy Parker and Janet Swisher, co-chairs for the second year, are doing just that with a kick off event set for Monday, Dec. 3 at Covington MultiCare.
“We’re starting much earlier this year,” Parker said. “We’re already getting a head start.” For Swisher, who responded to questions via email, getting started now is crucial. “It’s important to get 2013 Relay planning started early so we can build up the size and momentum of our planning committees, brainstorm about ways to improve on the previous year’s Relay, and to find more ways to become
more visible to our communities throughout the year,” Swisher wrote. “Our three city Relay has been in existence in our communities for the last 13 years and there are still a lot of people who don’t know what Relay is or that we are here. When you consider that 1 in every 100 Americans participates in a local Relay, it means that we still have 99 out of every 100 residents in our towns to reach.” At the kick off, teams can register at a reduced rate. In fact, at the Relay in June at Kentwood High, 26 teams registered for the 2013 event to take advantage of [ more RELAY page 4 ]

NW Toy Run returns to Pacific Raceways BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
Thousands of cars will line up in the upper paddock Sunday at Pacific Raceways near Covington but it’s more than a place for gearheads to check out some sweet rides. It’s an opportunity to give back — a car show with heart. Sponsored by Lexus of Bellevue, the eighth annual NW Toy Run will feature close to 3,000 cars from hobbyists to racers, with the ultimate goal being to bring in donations for the U.S. Marine Corps Reserves Toys for Tots program. Import groups and car clubs from around the Northwest will participate, according to information provided by Pacific Raceways. It all began when a blogger and car enthusiast suggested a car rally, explained Derrick Albrecht, service and parts director for Lexus of Bellevue.

Kentlake students help those in need this season Link Crew coordinates a clothing drive while Leadership put together a food drive BY TJ MARTINELL tmartinell@covingtonreporter.com

Both dealerships are part of the O’Brien Auto Group. So, the employees from the Toyota store brought an event vehicle to the motorsports facility with a PA system. This year, in addition to Lexus of Bellevue, several O’Brien dealerships in the Puget Sound area —Toyota of Renton, Toyota of Kirkland, Lexus, Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo of Tacoma, Fisker of Seattle — are collecting donations. “This year, each dealership will bring a car loaded with toys to the event,� Albrecht said. “We’re hoping for 3,000 cars this year. Lexus of Bellevue last year brought in just over $3,800 in toys. We buried a car last year in Target bags. You could barely recognize it was a car.� A year ago 6,100 toys and 700 stocking stuffers were collected, according to information provided by NW Toy Run, plus more than $4,000 in cash donations came in which helped more
than 3,500 children in the Northwest have a brighter holiday season. For those who attend, there will also be a new feature this year with the opportunity for lead and follow on the 2.25 mile road course as well as rides in the ProFormance Racing School BMW taxi cab. Albrecht said many of the dealerships vendors such as Chevron and its primary body shop are involved, making donations or collecting toys at their locations. Customers have gotten excited, too, Albrecht said. On Black Friday some customers dropped off their car for service then went shopping. When they came back, half the bags were filled with donations for Toys for Tots. “Getting the energy and getting other people excited about it has been easy,� Albrecht said. “We know that we’re working harder than ever and we hope that bears more fruit this year.�

Some kids are in care just for a day, some kids are in care for a lifetime.� In addition to the real estate office, the Emmons also own Mitzel’s, a restaurant in Kent. “With both (businesses) we looked for a charitable contribution to make during the holidays,� Emmons said. “We worked with Lisa. And she identified shoes as a need. Generally when they come into foster care they need shoes.� Emmons suggested to Wiscomb that they throw a Christmas party for the foster families. It’s set for Dec. 11 at a facility space donated by YarrowBay. Santa Claus will
the opportunity to sign up for free. In 2011, Parker noted, a total of 26 teams participated. To have 28 signed up already is exciting. Especially given that’s half of the number of teams that participated in the event in June — there were a total of 449 participants in the Relay which began on a Friday night in early June and went until early the next afternoon. Relay for Life is an annual fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. There are hundreds of local Relays around the country and Western Washington. It
began, in fact, 27 years ago in Tacoma. With the tremendous growth the event organizers experienced hosting it at Kentwood — previously it had been in July at Tahoma Junior High — Parker said they have loftier goals for the 2013 Relay. “We’re super excited to see what we can do this year,� Parker said. “Just talking with past teams, they’re saying, ‘We’ve already started fundraising.’ Last year it was a struggle to get teams started. Everybody is starting earlier which means more funds can come in.� Swisher wrote that one

Donations of new socks, underwear and pajamas will also be accepted. Emmons put out a feeler on Facebook a few weeks ago to see if anyone would be interested in helping. She also put out the call for help using other methods. The response has been incredible, she said. “It’s amazing how the community has rallied,� she said. “I’ve always known we have a great community but so many people have stepped up and said, ‘What can I do? Oh, donate a pair of shoes? I can do that. OK. I want to do more.’ Doing this gives people an opportunity to give back.� Emmons said she hopes this becomes an annual tradition. Given the response she has already received, she said she has a feeling it will become a holiday tradition for both businesses. “It warms my heart tremendously that people have said, ‘I want to help. What can I do,’� she said.
thing she and Parker, as well as the other volunteers, learned about planning a Relay means they need to be comfortable getting creative. “Changing things up can really have an impact,� Swisher wrote. “We had some reservations last year about making so many changes to our event — location, date, etc. — all in one year, but that type of thinking is really what helps us take our event to the next level. We had so much great feedback from our participants about the changes that we made.� In addition to providing information about the
event and signing teams up, Parker said, the kickoff will allow the organizing committee to demonstrate its theme which is Glamp Out 2013: Making Hope Happen. “We’re going to have Cancer Action Network information and all the different programs the American Cancer Society has that are basically sponsored by the money raised by all the Relays,� Parker said. “It’s amazing to see, because they break it down in King County, where the dollars raised go. We’re going to go over great fundraising strategies and go over the process of the
different ways people can do fundraising.� Parker said they will need more volunteers. They could use more members on the committee and there are tasks which require varying levels of involvement. With the exceptional results of the 2012 event, Swisher said, they’ve realized what comes with that success. “The success of our 2012 event made us realize that we need more manpower to help us with our goals of continued growth,� Swisher wrote. “It’s that old adage: Be careful what you wish for because you may get it! Our biggest wish was
to grow the size of our Relay, which we have done consistently for the last several years. Growth translates into more sponsors, teams, and participants, more funds raised for the American Cancer Society and certainly more fun for all at the event itself. But that also means that there are a lot more logistical issues to deal with and more volunteers are needed to achieve those goals, which will ultimately result in us putting on a quality event on June 1.� For more information go to: www.relayforlife.org/covingtonwa www.facebook.com/maplevalleyrelay

teaches Leadership, said they are aiming for the food drive — which started this week and lasts until Dec. 16 — to raise around 30,000 pounds of food, another new for this year. Chance said the classes will be ranked based on
the amount they raised, with a first, second and third place. Prizes will be awarded for the classes that make the top three. “We wanted to try something different this year and change it from the march madness style in
years past where class quit bringing in food once they get eliminated,� he wrote in an email. “This will keep all classes involved for the entire drive.� Those wishing to donate food can bring it into the main office.
Meanwhile, Kentlake’s Leadership students have gone for a more traditional competition for their annual food drive rather than a March Madness bracket. Rick Chance, who

More than a decade ago, AIDS, or acquired immune deficiency syndrome, was the number one killer of people in the United States aged 25-44. The statistical number has now dropped down to sixth, but that doesn’t mean that AIDS awareness is any less important today than it was then. AIDS is the late-stage condition of the HIV infection. HIV is an infection that severely compromises and damages a person’s immune system, making it difficult to fight off certain diseases and cancers that a healthy person would have no problems with. The development of drugs to combat HIV and AIDS has slowed down the progression of the virus; however, there is still no cure for HIV or AIDS. Newer drugs that thwart the HIV virus have cut AIDS death rates dramatically over the last two decades. To schedule a consultation, please call Southlake Clinic at (253) 395-1972.

Holiday season inspires giving OUR CORNER
Kris Hill Assistant editor
This is a time of year when things like family gatherings, office holiday parties, and elbowing shoppers out of the way for the hot toy every kid wants can make people a tiny bit cranky. And the lovely weather doesn’t help. In those moments of holiday-induced stress it is worth remembering that the communities this paper covers — Covington, Maple Valley, Black Diamond and surrounding unincorporated neighborhoods — are full of people doing amazing things. From high school students to churches to local businesses, the spirit of giving is beyond measure, and these communities give all year long. But, there’s some kind of extra special embracing of those in need during the holidays around here that is beyond description. Let me throw out a bunch of examples just to give you a sense of the sheer amount of awesome we have around here. mons has reached out to the community for There’s the community at Kentwood High, which has already begun its annual Munch Mad- donations of shoes for children in foster care right here in this city. ness food drive, which last year raised nearly Or the Nutty Squirrel, co-owned by Maple 40,000 pounds for local food banks.

If you’ve considered researching your own family history, the genealogy collection at the Bellevue library is a good place to start. The collection contains general how-to guides, county records, surname guides, ship passenger lists and more. Most of these books are from the Eastside Genealogical Society collection. Your search won’t always be confined to old tomes. Genealogy research has gotten very sophisticated over the years as marriage, birth and death records are being digitized. The King County Library system also subscribes to a number of databases to help you on your quest to find ancestors. Databases such as 19th Century Newspapers, Ancestry Library Edition, Heritage Quest and America’s Obituaries and Death Notices give access to a variety of information including census and military records. This makes it easier to double check a middle name, learn of a mysterious first wife, debate Great-Grandpa’s actual war wound or find his height and weight at enlistment. High school

This allows parents to choose gifts for their children which they know the youngsters will like. Ginger ‘Mama’ Passarelli was in New York City last week with The Soup Ladies feeding Thanksgiving dinner to folks in need there. Then there’s the annual ‘Shop With a Cop’ event sponsored by Maple Valley Rotary, which is in partnership with Walmart and the Greater King County Police Activities League to provides each child $50 to go Christmas shopping with a police officer. Shop With a Cop will happen in December. As everyone emerges from the haze some in retail call “Christmas halftime,� also known as Thanksgiving, along with the crazy Black Friday experience, Cyber Monday and all the other sales which emphasize the first world-ness of the winter holiday season in this country, it is good to remember all the good people in our communities do. Perhaps it will inspire you to embrace the spirit of service this year to fend off the crankiness that can come from the overwhelming stress this season seems to engender.
yearbooks are even included in Ancestry Library Edition. Soon none of us will be able to hide those pictures of beehive hairdos, mullets or puffy bangs. If you still find yourself stuck on a particular branch of the family tree, try seeking help from the volunteers from the Eastside Genealogical Society. Volunteers like Bob and Judy are as sharp as detectives when you feel like you’ve reached a dead end. EGS volunteers are currently at the Bellevue Library on the first and fifth Tuesdays from 7-9 p.m. and every Wednesday afternoon from 1-3 p.m. While there is no guarantee you will find a rich relative, or rights to a noble title, you will find concrete details to mark your family’s place in history. That is priceless.

Days in Bremerton with the newspaper boys area – the mayor of Black Diamond, Rebecca Olness. I was talking with her on the phone recently concerning a story when the subject of Bremerton came up.

nent citizens in the city and Kitsap County. She met her husband, Ron, in Bremerton when she was in high school. She said her grandmother, who worked at Harrision Hospital, signed her husband, Ron’s, birth certificate. There is some synchronicity. The best part of our conversation was about being allowed to carrying a canvas bag and throw papers. Olness and a
friend were walking home from school one day when they decided delivering papers or be paper boys would be fun and a good way to spend time after school. “We thought why can’t we be paper boys,� Olness said. She and her friend went to the paper, the Bremerton Sun, a daily, and asked. “We thought it wouldn’t
be a big deal,� Olness said. To their surprise the girls were told no because only boys could be paper boys. This was the early 1950s and girls just didn’t deliver papers, or do a lot of other things. “I think we complained,� Olness said. “They said, ‘No girls can’t do this.’� Olness said it was her first experience with discrimination. Over the next
decades incidents like that would be major battles in the country, then it stuck with the mayor. After 32 years working as a teacher and spending the last three years as mayor of Black Diamond, getting gypped out of carrying a canvas bag continues to be alive for her. “I’m still mad,â€? she said. How things have changed‌. I hope.
Blessed with the Thanksgiving leftover dilemma Gretchen Leigh
giving Day? Any meals I plan leading up to Thanksgiving Day are simple and produce no leftovers. This residual dilemma of needing the fridge for everyday food can be an inconvenience. I find myself encouraging only beverages that come out of the door of the fridge (water) and snacking on unhealthy food they can find in the pantry. Cereal is probably not a good idea because it would require milk. If they try to get the milk out they’ll have to remove the condiments precariously stacked around the milk in my efforts to find more space. I’m not beyond directing my family to canned goods and a can opener, as long as they eat the whole can.

After I’ve prepared for days for our Thanksgiving feast, it is over in about 20 minutes; a half hour if people have seconds. Then I am faced with getting all the food back into the fridge. It seems this should be easier because much food has been consumed, but for some reason the volume of food seems to grow. I strip the turkey and put the leftovers in a plastic container. All the side dishes also go into storage dishes; remember I added a couple recipes on Thanksgiving Day. Everything is once again stacked precariously in refrigerator. If you take one thing out, chances are you’ll be removing five other things just to get to the food you’re after. If containers are not stacked
carefully, there is again risk of spontaneous explosion upon impact with the floor. Before all the leftovers are consumed, I make turkey soup with the stripped turkey carcass. I don’t usually have a plastic storage container large enough to hold all the soup, so the large soup pot has to be stored in the refrigerator as well. It’s just as big as the defrosting turkey was. So the circle of leftovers starts once again. A week after Thanksgiving, my family is turkeyedout, the side dishes are consumed and we are back to everyday dinner recipes. The refrigerator’s internal status is back to manageable leftover proportions while visions of turkey drums dance in our heads. I have to say, having too
much food is not an unpleasant dilemma considering all of the people who went hungry on Thanksgiving Day and all the those displaced from their homes by the past couple months’ storms across the country. We are truly blessed by this dilemma of how to fit all the leftovers into our refrigerator.

If you cooked Thanksgiving dinner at home, you are now faced with a dilemma – how do you fit all of that food back into the fridge? It starts before Thanksgiving even begins: that bird can monopolize a lot of space as it sits and thaws for several days. I put mine in my biggest mixing bowl and every morning when I open the fridge to grab half and half for my morning coffee, I poke the bird to see if it responds. It never does, but I can tell its thawing is progressing. I start making food a few days in advance so I don’t have to cook everything on Thanksgiving Day, but then I have to juggle casserole

Perry said, “I’m hoping when I leave they know they can do better than the year before.� That attitude, both Hopkins and Perry said, comes from the example set by the coaching staff, particularly head coach Chris Feist who preaches the importance of the team being a family, the wrestlers treating each other like brothers, while still working hard and going out with intensity. “On the mat (in practice) he’s not really your friend,� Perry said. “You beat him up but you love him.� It’s that kind of preparation, said senior Tim Whitehead, which will help Tahoma go after the goals the team has its sights set on. “We’ve got to stay focused,� Whitehead said. “We’ve got to keep up the intensity.� Whitehead, who will wrestle at 126 this season, finished second at state last year.

to not only get to state but to place. Every guy can contribute that way. “Especially because we don’t have any returning state champs like we did last year,� Autrey said. “Last year we worked on more of the lower placers. We need to do that again this year and focus on those guys.� Team unity, Autrey said, will help with that. So will confidence. “Last year we proved we can do it,� Autrey said of winning state. “We know we’re good enough. We’re not just going to drop off. People doubt us every year.� Those doubters learn, Autrey said, because once they hit the mat with Tahoma they discover how hard the Bears work in the practice room. And for those who don’t see that Tahoma has reloaded, Whitehead said, the Bears need to always remember to be on the offensive. “Right now we’ve got a target on us,� Whitehead said. “We need to go out with the mindset that we’re taking it again.� Each wrestler has goals for himself this season as well as all the bigger aspirations for the team. Velasquez said he plans to work on his technique by increasing his fluidity as well as his intensity. He expects the same thing from the rest of the team. “We’re an athletic team,� he said. “We’re a talented team.� Schuessler wants to place in the top five at state this year. He’s working on his technique, too, trying to have an offensive

mindset when the official’s whistle blows. He’s working specifically on fine tuning his attacks from the neutral position as well as scoring from the bottom position. Velasquez and Schuessler recognize the importance of learning from Feist as well as the seniors who lead the team this year. “Sam and I ‌ next year will be the leaders who could rally the team,â€? Velasquez said. “If we work hard enough, not only could we win state this year, we could win it next year, too.â€? Schuessler said he knows from his experience last year watching teammates who have since graduated that this season and next he needs to put in the best effort in the practice room to be a good role model but also by encouraging underclassmen when they’re struggling. This year, Tahoma will go out and fight to repeat as state champions, but the wrestlers will walk away from the mat with much more than medals and trophies. “Feist, he always tells us you can apply this go-getter attitude anywher,â€? Velasquez said. Schuessler added, “Feist always says we’re studentathletes and students first. With wrestling I’ve learned so much. I’ve learned to be disciplined. I’ve learned to be persistent.â€? No matter what happens, Schuessler said, win or lose, Tahoma will go after it. The Bears are on the attack.

A mandatory machine recount will decide the outcome of the tightly contested legislative race between State Rep. Mark Hargrove, R-Covington, and Kent Democratic challenger Bill Sizemore for the State House District 47 Position 1 seat. The recount will be on Friday, said Kim van Ekstrom, King County Elections spokeswoman. Hargrove, a Boeing instructor pilot and Air Force veteran, has a 157-vote lead through Tuesday’s tally by King County Elections. Hargrove has 50.08 percent (27,101 votes) while Sizemore has 49.79 percent (26,944 votes). There were 70 write-in votes for .13 percent. Hargrove’s lead dropped to 134 votes through Monday’s tally before going up slightly Tuesday. His
lead had been more than 300 votes until dropping to 284 votes on Nov. 19, 241 on Nov. 20 and to 134 on Nov. 26. Sizemore, a Kent firefighter and former Covington City councilman, is making his first run for a state office. Hargrove is seeking a second, two-year term after defeating Democrat Geoff Simpson in 2010. House District 47 covers the East Hill of Kent as well as Covington, Black Diamond and parts of Auburn. Any office must be recounted by machine when the difference between two candidates is less than 2,000 votes and less than .50 percent, according to the King County Elections website at www.kingcounty. gov/elections.

Recount ordered in 47th ballots included in the race will be pulled for the recount. Observers from political parties are invited to observe all recounts. In machine recounts, the tabulating equipment is programmed to examine votes for the specific race being recounted. Some ballots are identified for closer inspection by Elections staff to confirm that the original results were correct. After all ballots have been recounted, the Elections Canvassing Board reviews and approves the amended results. The board members are Sherril Huff, director of Elections; Kevin Wright, Prosecuting Attorney’s Office representative; and Anne Noris, King County Council representative. The board set the date of the recount. Hargrove led by just 91 votes over Sizemore when the first results were released on election night Nov. 6. A week later, Hargrove had built that lead to 369 votes before the Sizemore comeback began.
