State to talk I-90 tolls at Bellevue meeting
The state is considering putting tolls on the I-90 bridge, perhaps as early as 2014. MEGAN MANAGAN, Reporter Newspapers
The Washington State Department of Transportation will host three public meetings this month – one of them in Bellevue – about the possibility of tolling Interstate 90 from I-5 in Seattle to I-405 in Bellevue. The meetings are part of the environmental assessment being done by WSDOT. Tolls are being considered to generate revenue to help pay for replacing the SR-520 floating bridge. Tolling on I-90 is also projected to help alleviate congestion
on the road. “Tolling on I-90 between I-5 and I-405 is needed to generate revenue to help complete the SR 520 program and to help alleviate congestion on I-90,” WSDOT said in a statement. “Scoping is an opportunity to gather feedback that will shape the tolling study.” The three meetings are part of the public input process, which is open from Jan. 22 through Feb. 22. The Bellevue meeting will be from 4-7
p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30 at Bellevue City Hall, 450 110th Ave. N.E. The environmental assessment is required by the National Environmental Protection Act to understand any influences, both positive and negative, about the project. Public input will allow residents to take part in the process and to learn more about the study. The study will ask why tolling is beSEE I-90, 7

Eastside residents turned out at a Bellevue town hall meeting Tuesday, Jan. 8 to protest Sen. Rodney Tom’s Senate coup, brandishing signs that read: “Traitor Tom” and jeering when he spoke. The 48th Legislative District town hall attracted a crowd of nearly twice its normal size, observed Rep. Ross Hunter (D-Medina). Tom (D-Medina) and Hunter were joined by Rep.-elect Cyrus Habib (D-Bellevue), a first-time politician and graduate of the district’s public school system. The three legislators told constituents the Eastside presented a unique set of needs and challenges this legislative session, among the top concerns being transportation to meet the growing population, the McCleary ruling on school funding and

initiatives to promote the Eastside’s economic viability. McCleary alone presents a huge hurdle. At least $1 billion is needed in the next biennium to meet a judge’s ruling to adequately pay for education – a task that Hunter said was difficult without additional revenue. “Judge us on our end product,” said Tom, addressing several noticeably upset constituents.

“BEST ET ETHNIC FOOD” IN BE ELL LLE EVUE The Bellevue Reporter, r 2012 r,
A candlelight vigil attracted about 35 people Dec. 30 at Bellevue’s Downtown Park, to pay tribute to ‘Nirbhaya,’ the young woman in India who died after being raped. A total of 27 people signed petitions urging Indian government to take urgent action against rapists and make strict laws against such crimes. COURTESY PHOTO
Bellevue memorial service pays tribute to ‘Nirbhaya’ Members from different ethnic groups gathered to pay tribute to “Nirbhaya,” the New Delhi gang rape victim, at a memorial service on Friday, Jan. 4 at the Westin Hotel in Bellevue. The attack on the 23-year-old woman, who died of severe internal injuries, provoked a fierce debate across India about the routine mistreatment of females and triggered protests all over the world demanding action and social change. Attendees at the event commented on the perceived indifference of the country’s ruling elite and its failure to protect women. The participants also put their thoughts into written words, all of which would be sent to the Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh. The event, organized by the Washington State and India Trade Relations Action Committee (WASITRAC), a Seattle based non-profit advocacy group that has been working for a stronger bilateral trade relationship between Washington state and India since 2007. “Political apathy towards such incidents is a big problem in India,” said Debadutta Dash, a Co-Chair of WASITRAC. “India is largest democracy, but regretfully it has not gone beyond the traditions of thousands of years in which women were inferior to men, and its people and leaders must change that.” Habib M. Habib, another Co-Chair of
ERIC ODE
WASITRAC, read out a message sent by Seattle Congressman Jim McDermott, which said he was shocked by the crime. “We as a society cannot tolerate such senseless violence against anyone,” McDermott’s letter said. “Sadly, sexual assault remains commonplace in many parts of the world. At a certain point, we have to look at violent crimes against women in the eye and say ‘no more.’ I hope this tragedy will be a catalyst for such change.” Dr. Chandra Bhanu Satpathy, a noted scholar, philanthropist and humanitarian leader who recently visited Seattle and was honored by the City of Seattle and Washington state, was concerned about the increasing atrocities towards women. In a message, he said: “The rape of any woman anywhere in the world is the worst incidence of barbarism and hence is a crime against humanity. It has to be condemned in unequivocal terms. What has happened in India is a total dishonor of womanhood the world over.” Washington state Rep. Marcie Maxwell, whose 41st Legislative District includes part of Bellevue, attended the service and expressed her condolence for “Nirbhaya” and concern for the safety of women in India as well as other part of the world. The memorial service ended with a moment of silence.

EDITORIAL
President takes strong stand on dangerous guns
P
resident Obama has taken a strong first step in the effort to control the deadly spread of guns and death. While some people may disagree with some parts of his proposal, much of it should be implemented by Congress – now. The first is to renew the prohibition on assault weapon sales. This isn’t a radical change. That was in effect in our country until 2004 when the requirement expired. There’s no reason it shouldn’t be reinstated. The president also wants criminal background checks required on all gun purchases. Again, perfectly reasonable. And those checks must extend to weapons purchased at gun shows. Another no-brainer all Americans should support. Also called for is better access to mental health. That’s something the president can do now by executive order. While we praise Obama’s plan, we know that it won’t end gun deaths in this country. Too many millions of guns already exist in the hands of people who shouldn’t have them. But doing nothing, or delaying action, only will make things worse. Predictably, the National Rifle Association immediately launched a PR campaign and blanketed Capitol Hill with its supporters. We agree with the concerns about the Second Amendment and that it has constitutional protection. But that doesn’t mean that gun laws can’t be improved. Also, we’re appalled by the NRA accusing the president of being “just another elitist hypocrite” because the Secret Service protects his daughters, yet he has turned down the proposal to place armed guards in schools. The NRA’s true believers may agree with that thought, but most Americans should find the statement shameful.
Money talks Interesting to see that Americans for Prosperity, a conservative group that has the backing of the wealthy Koch family, big donors to Republicans, is telling the GOP to take it easy in the battle over raising the U.S. debt ceiling. Hmmm. Could it be that the U.S. defaulting on its payments might adversely impact people’s investments? – Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

Volunteering: it’s good for you, too BY JUDY SMITH t the Y, volunteering is part of our DNA as more than half a million people donate their time and talents at Ys across the country in a variety of capacities. Whether serving on the board of directors or tutoring (and everything in between), the Y relies on volunteers to make an impact in communities. On Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, Jan. 21, the Coal Creek Family YMCA encourages residents of Issaquah, Renton, Newcastle and south Bellevue to honor Dr. King’s legacy not only by giving back and supporting our neighbors, but also by reflecting on how each of us can further activate the passion for contributing to the community that lasts all year long. But what does it mean to volunteer? Volunteering means more than giving your time to an organization or cause and then getting back to your life. It is about helping others, contributing to our communities and helping ourselves as well. A recent Gallup poll showed that nine out of 10 people said they receive an emotional boost from doing kind things for other people. When activated, that kind of emotional boost from contributing to the community goes from something you do to a part of who you are. Nonprofit organizations like the Y can help individuals find that emotional boost by providing rewarding experiences that benefit the community as a whole. In Issaquah, Renton, Newcastle and south Bellevue, volunteers at the Coal Creek Family YMCA were able to provide more than 100 kids with Christmas presents this year… no children were turned away. There were at least 96 volunteers who donated their time in purchasing and wrapping gifts for

families who were not able to afford them for their children. Without the help of these volunteers, families would not have been able to enjoy the holidays. We were able to come together and provide them with a pleasant, stressfree holiday season. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is the perfect time to get into a volunteer routine, to help others and yourself. We are closed on this day of remembrance to allow others to give back. To learn more about volunteer opportunities at the Coal Creek Family YMCA, contact Vicky Hinds at vhinds@ seattleymca.org. Judy Smith is Branch Operations Executive for the Coal Creek Family YMCA.

What’s happening in Bellevue and elsewhere
Munchbar shooter pleads not guilty
Ja’Mari Jones, charged in a fatal Christmas Eve shooting at Bellevue’s Munchbar, pled not guilty to seconddegree murder, Jan. 10. Jones, 19, is charged in the shooting death of DeShawn Milliken. A Renton man was also seriously injured after at least five shots were fired into the crowded bar. More than 600 people were estimated to be at the venue, many of them celebrating the Seahawks victory the night before. Jones is currently being held on a $5 million bail. If convicted, he could face 20 to 28 years in jail. Jones was convicted alongside two other teens in the murder of Ed McMichael, better knows as Seattle’s “Tuba Man.” Family and friends of Milliken were present for the hearing morning. Many wore shirts in his memory. “[Milliken] was very close to his sister and his mother,” said Scott O’Toole, King County Senior Deputy Prosecutor, “and to have that happen in such a horrific period of time, is devastating to the family.”
Hague named vice chair of county council
King Council member Jane Hague will serve as Vice Chair of Regional Coordination on the King County Council. Hague represents the Bellevue area on the council. Larry Gossett, of Seattle, will serve a third consecutive year as Council Chair and Councilmember Julia Patterson will serve as Vice Chair of Policy Development and Review. “This Council is clearly placing an important emphasis on regional affairs by appointing me Council Vice Chair of Regional coordination,” said Hague. “In the spirit of the strategic plan, leading the charge on building lasting regional partnerships will be an exciting leadership role for me in 2013, especially my focus on long-term planning for the Eastside Rail Corridor.”
Meeting set on comprehensive plan Ever think about what Bellevue will be like in the future? Will cars drive themselves on Lake Hills Boulevard or will your home’s lights be controlled by the Internet? The next 30 years are sure to bring dramatic changes. Bellevue city planners want to hear residents’ hopes, concerns and visions about the future as they begin to update the Comprehensive Plan, the city’s vision for the future. A “scoping” meeting, one of the first steps in the process to define what the update should address, will be held from 5-7 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 29 at Crossroads Community Center, 16000 NE 10th St. The Comprehensive Plan will look to what Bellevue will be like in 2030, 2040 and beyond. It helps the city plan for places to live, learn and play, for jobs and a strong local economy, and for creating and preserving a healthy environment. Residents’ participation is considered vital by city officials to provide thoughts on what issues should be the focus of the update, to help guide and shape the plan, and to ensure that the plan continues to embrace the community’s vision.

BC employee to receive Governor’s Trophy Susan Gjolmesli has been selected to receive a Governor’s Trophy in Memory of Carolyn Blair Brown from the Washington State Governor’s Committee on Disability Issues and Employment (GCDE). The award is given to an individual who has significantly enhanced the empowerment of persons with disabilities in the community and workforce. Gjolmesli will be honored in a ceremony in Olympia on Jan. 23 and also by Bellevue
College on Jan. 24 with a reception and open house on campus. The BC event will be from 2:30-4:30 p.m. in the Bellevue College Garden Room – Building C, Room 130 on the main campus, 3000 Landerholm Circle SE in Bellevue The trophy is part of the Governor’s Employer Awards Program, which honors employers who have demonstrated exemplary practices to recruit, retain and promote individuals with disabilities. While most
awards honor an employer, the Governor’s Trophy is presented to an individual. The committee selected Gjolmesli to receive the award because of her reputation as an advocate who can articulate current research and represent the disability community with grace and poise. “Susan has simply refused to see herself or any of the people for whom she advocates as being unqualified to live a full life,” said Michael McDermott, a friend and colleague. “It has been this singleminded focus on what each human being has to offer that has made her one of the premier advocates for persons living with differences in the state of Washington.” Gjolmesli has been a member of the Advisory Council for the Department of Services for the Blind (1986-1990-appointed by Gov.

I-90 trail at Factoria near the I-90/I 405 interchange, to the east end of the Bellevue city limits. Filling this gap is a major element of the Mountains to Sound Greenway vision of a connected trail system from Seattle to Ellensburg. The trail study was funded by a $160,000 National Scenic Byways grant secured by the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust in 2011, with $39,000 matching funds contributed by Bellevue. Much of the trail corridor lies in the Interstate 90 right-of-way, making the Washington State Department of Transportation a major partner in this effort. The trail will likely be constructed in segments and will include major new infrastructure such as flyover bridges over the I-90 off-ramp at Factoria Boulevard and over Factoria Boulevard itself to ensure safe and efficient travel for bicyclists and pedestrians. The Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust and the City of Bellevue will seek construction funds for this important trail link, according to Welti.

Woman taps into passion for horses to help patients By Carrie Rodriguez Reporter Newspapers
Horses have surrounded Kelsey Devoille since she was a girl. She grew up in Duvall, where she rode horses and competed in a three-day event known as the horse triathlon. By the time she was in middle school, she taught other kids horseback riding. Devoille opened Next Phase Eventing, her Redmond-based business that specializes in training riders, while attending the University of Washington where she earned an undergraduate degree in Finance and Psychology. But through her work as a trainer and coach, she realized she wanted to do something more with her passions for horses and people. “Through that process I recognized the impact that horses have on people, not just riding for competition, but also on their emotional well-being,” said Devoille. “I got to experience situations where my students were going through a very tough life event and I got to see how the horses helped them through that.” So she went to graduate school at Seattle Pacific, pursued her psychology degree and learned about the art of equine-assisted psychotherapy. The Kirkland resident opened Un-

bridled Counseling in the Bridle Trails neighborhood last June. Her practice offers traditional and equine-assisted therapy to youth and adults struggling with eating disorders, autism spectrum disorders, anxiety, depression and family issues. “Equine therapy can be a really unique and non-threatening way to approach challenges in life,” said Devoille, who still competes and has her A rating in the United States Pony Club – the highest rating a rider can achieve in the sport. “Counseling doesn’t always have to be so serious or intimidating. This can really just be a different way for people to be able to look at their own growth and challenge themselves.” At Unbridled Counseling, clients can either opt for traditional talk therapy, or equine therapy. If they choose the latter, Devoille will introduce them to the three therapy horses she uses: 8-yearold Poppy, an Irish Sport, Arabian mix; 12-year-old Dublin, an Irish
Sport horse; and 26-year-old Ria, a Morgan horse. She said her patients interact with the horses and can choose which horse to stay with during subsequent visits. So why horses? Part of it, Devoille says, is because of their size. “They are huge, 1,000-plus pound animals, so they are naturally intimidating,” she said, noting the horses’ size helps some of her clients with power and control issues. Horses are also intuitive and can pick up on certain cues that she may miss, she said. “When a client is anxious, horses act anxious,” she said. “It’s a great way for clients to see how their anxiety or fear is affecting the horse.” Devoille specializes in working with people with eating disorders and says that equine therapy is also a great way to work on topics like assertiveness or control that sometimes arise in recovering from an eating disorder. So far, Devoille says business is going great. About half of her clients use traditional therapy, while the other half use equine therapy. Some inpatient treatment centers have also brought therapy groups to her business to engage in therapy with the horses.

New healthcare said plus for patients BY CELINA KAREIVA BELEVUE REPORTER
After 35 years of practice, Dr. Peter Schock found himself spending less and less time with patients, a fact that left him frustrated and discouraged. He rarely had time to explain the nuances of an issue or condition. But with a growing patient volume, he had little choice but to spread himself too thin. It’s a phenomenon many today know as the “six-minute doctor’s visit.” Now, a new healthcare model might help change that. MDVIP, a national network of physicians that caps patient loads to ensure more one-on-one time with doctors, launched its newest practice in Bellevue under Dr. Schock this December. MDVIP, which charges an annual membership fee, part of which goes toward a comprehensive wellness exam, is based in Florida, and partners with 565 physicians nationwide. The model already has been
implemented in Vancouver and other parts of Washington. “I’m really looking forward to being able to extend myself, maybe even into home visits...which is Dr. Peter Schock something I haven’t done in the last 10 years,” said Schock of the freedom allowed him under the MDVIP model. “I can see the lifestyle and the environment these patients are living in, so that I can tweak it toward safer, happier health.” The propensity for preventive care is a given. But Schock counts among the advantages to the model an ability to better tailor care to the city’s large foreign-born population, many of whom are unfamiliar with U.S. medicine, or have encountered new health concerns since moving to the States. It can be difficult to provide care because of cultural misunderstandings, language
barriers and an unfamiliarity with the health climate immigrants are coming from, says Schock, who has a particularly multicultural practice, with patients from Eastern Europe and India. “Languages and cultures can act as a barrier, unless I can take the time to understand them better,” he adds. To properly treat these ailments, Schock says he needs the extra time allowed by the MDVIP model to sit and explain to patients the link between lifestyle choices and health conditions. Schock, who now expects to have 500 patients instead of his usual 3,000, hopes the added time will allow him to create a total health picture. But the MDVIP model doesn’t just benefit foreign born. Mark Sklaroff, a patient of Schock’s for the last 30 years, says that its focus on wellness and preventative care will be advantageous for everyone. Physicians are able to practice personalized care that fits their own style, like organizing doctor-patient walks, or reintroducing home visits. Under the current status quo, Mark Murrison, MDVIP’s President of Marketing & Innovation, says patients have become used to “conveyer belt” of care. And the implications are huge.

nal of Managed Care, showed that for five consecutive years, the MDVIP model had reduced hospital visits significantly: by 79 percent for Medicare patients, and 72 percent for those with commercial insurance between the ages of 35-64. “In the past if you wanted to see [Dr. Schock] quickly, as in any conglomerate
practice, you get the first doctor available,” said Sklaroff. “Under this set of circumstances you won’t have to wait two to three weeks.” Sklaroff, who says Dr. Schock helped deliver his daughter, thinks the switch to more concentrated care is nothing but beneficial. “It’s going to be extraordinary not only for patients...but because now we can look into things that before we’d only looked into superficially.”

Hidden Valley Park to get additions BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Bellevue (BGCB) and the City of Bellevue will partner on the construction of new facilities planned for Hidden Valley Park. The project includes a 24,655 square foot community center, with three basketball courts, office space and room enough for sports like pickle ball, volleyball, badminton, even batting cages. Thirty-seven parking spaces will be added and outdoor ballfields will be converted to synthetic turf. To make room for the construction, three buildings will need to be demolished. If approved, the city would lease land for the gym at a rate of $1 per

The Crabapple Restaurant Integral to the early development and atmosphere of Bellevue Square was the Crabapple Restaurant, which was located at the north end of the mall under a memorable madrona tree. Owned by Charles and Patricia Pefley, the restaurant was a gathering spot for families and business men. The waitresses wore crabapple-print aprons and each plate was garnished with spiced apples. The Crabapple gained national recognition when Duncan Hines featured it in his Adventures in Good Eating dining guide. Charles Pefley previously ran a lunch counter for the Washington State Press Club in Seattle, where he met many local artists. Using those connections he decorated the restaurant with local artwork and the response was so positive he began the Bellevue Arts and Crafts Fair in 1947. Now called the Pacific Northwest Arts and Crafts Fair, the show is still an annual event in Bellevue Square. Heritage Corner is a feature in the Bellevue Reporter.

year, and in exchange would be able to use the facilities when not in use by the BGCB. Early estimates projected a total cost of $9.6 million, $6.8 million of which would be funded by the BGCB for the construction of the new gymnasium, fields and other site projects. The remaining $2.8 million would be funded by the city. The city will continue to own and operate Hidden Valley Park. The BGCB had earlier investigated using Surrey Downs Park for the new gymnasium, but with Rapid Transit planned for the neighborhood, construction did not seem feasible. Another location at Bellevue Way and Northeast 20th Street, was also vetoed because the space was found to be too small.
“This park needs improvements, and by partnering with the city [on something] the city couldn’t do alone…It’s an exciting venture,” said Kathy Haggart, President and CEO of the BGCB. If the project proceeds as planned, Haggart expects construction to be complete by the end of 2014. “There is a shortage of gyms and fields [in Bellevue],” she added. “This will allow us to serve that many more kids. We’re always competing for fields and gyms, and this will be a huge impact on what we can provide.”

Habib said that having lost his eyesight to cancer at age eight, he well understood the importance of protecting the most vulnerable. Without “wraparound” programs, he said he likely would not have made it to college. Tom agreed with Habib, but added that perhaps the definition of the country’s most vulnerable had been
expanded too wide for the current economy. “Any decision that happens at the state level will affect all cities in the area,” said Steven Kasner of Bellevue. “I understand that there’s very limited money, but there are very large ripple effects.” This year’s legislative session started Monday, Jan. 14 and will run through April 28.

Two from Bellevue play with ODP Bellevue’s Sophie and Lillie French and their Eastside FC GF 97 team made it all the way to the finals of the Regional Championship soccer tournament in Las Vegas before falling 2-0 to a team from California.

Newport’s Dotson to WSU Newport senior Isaac Dotson, a standout in basketball and top prospect in football, announced that he will head to Washington State to play for coach Mike Leach and the Cougars.

same 2A status Rimkus and his predecessor did during parts of their time at the helm. As school enrollment has swelled, it now trails only Newport in the district’s high schools and will remain a 3A competitor for the foreseeable future, meaning only a finish in the top third of the conference will result in a trip to the postseason. Kuehn said he expects Rimkus to take most of his staff with him to Redmond and will begin the search for a new coach within the week. “I think we can keep the offseason program rolling,” he said, adding that a current member of the staff has agreed to oversee conditioning. “It’s going to be really tough, but that is part of the deal. I’m happier than heck for him.”

Bellevue broke Mercer Island’s seven-year dual meet win streak in swim and dive with a 97-89 win behind wins in all but one event and a host of state qualifying times.

Matt Williams was anchor leg on the 200 medley relay team and won the 50 free and 100 free. Todd McCarthy (200 free, 500 free), James Doucette (100 fly and 200 medley relay) and Ciliv Morgan (100 breast) also picked up wins to help the Wolverines to the dual meet victory. Bellevue had not outpaced Mercer Island in a regular season dual meet win in more than 10 years.

When Interlake athletic director Art Kuehn was tasked with replacing popular head football coach Sheldon Cross before the 2010 season, he knew it would be a challenge. As he looks to replace Cross’ successor Jason Rimkus, who took the Saints to the postseason in two of the last three years and recently accepted the head coach position with Redmond High School, he knows the challenge could be even greater this time around. Cross, despite facing the same challenges that have continuously relegated the Saints to also-ran status in ever-powerful KingCo, took his team to the 2A playoffs during the 2008 and 2009 seasons and was mostly beloved by his players. When he left to pursue a coaching opportunity in college, Kuehn hired Rimkus and was immediately impressed. “He got a really good offseason program rolling that has been good for all of our athletes, not just football,” Kuehn said. “He has a really positive attitude and knowledge of the game.” Rimkus will take over for Jeff Chandler in leading the Mustangs and RHS athletic director John Appelgate said he hopes the same traits that helped him at Interlake can benefit a Redmond program that last posted a winning season in 2007. “We feel like we’re on the right track,” he said. “We have a bubble of talent coming back and we’re on track to be competitive next year.” Appelgate said Chandler more than fulfilled his main goal of increasing the turnout for football during his time there and while a KingCo title may be an unrealistic expectation for a program that won only three games in 2012, the hope around the athletic department is that Rimkus can infuse the program with the same energy. According to Kuehn, that shouldn’t be a problem. “He was really passionate about everything,” Kuehn said. “He’s done a great job.” Interlake went 5-4 in the regular season in 2008 and made the playoffs in 2A, falling to Lynden 34-0 with Cross on the sidelines. He took the team back to the postseason the following year before falling to Mark Morris and leaving the program to Rimkus, who won only one league game but still won three playoff games with standout running back Jordan Todd. Todd won state offensive player of the year honors during a senior season that saw him break the state’s singleseason rushing record the following year in 2011, when the Saints again won a pair of playoff contests and lost to Lynden in the season-finale. While Redmond now has its new man, Interlake is left searching for a replacement that will also not enjoy the

Rudy Thomas speaks to a group during an event with former Sonics and Storm players. COURTESY PHOTO, City of Bellevue
For more than 25 years, Rudy Thomas was an indispensable asset to the city of Bellevue. Thomas spent more than two decades as the programming coordinator at the Crossroads Community Center and impacted thousands of young lives. A former member of the Harlem Globetrotters, Thomas was also part of the 1972 men’s basketball team at Western Washington University that won its first 21 games and finished the

Reporter: How did you end up with the City of Bellevue? Thomas: I was working at Yesler Terrace for the Seattle Parks Department. They were having some problems at Crossroads Community Center with gangs and stuff and I was in the middle of it where I was. I had seen drive-by shootings. I just got lucky and I stuck with it.
Reporter: Talk about your time with the Globetrotters and what you recall from those days. Thomas: A bunch of crazy guys…I’m serious. Hanging out with those guys, most of them had been there. To be able to sit back and listen to them was kind of like an education. These guys
Reporter: Talk about your approach working with kids and the lessons you have learned over the years. Thomas: Most kids look at me, because I’m tall, they look up to me and I try to make sure they don’t call me Mister, it’s just Rudy. I try to get down to their eyelevel so they aren’t always looking up and just relate, and having that patience.

Recently retired from his full time position with the City of Bellevue and recovering from foot surgery, Thomas took some time with the Reporter to talk about the Globetrotters, working with youth and why he first delved into basketball.
Reporter: Why did you end up making the transition to basketball? Thomas: The girls, to be honest and truthful. All the girls were going to the basketball games. I fell in love with it. I had played pickup ball and they talked me in to trying out for he high school team. One thing led to another and I just dropped baseball. No one was really going to the games back in those days, especially the women. That’s what made me get into the gym.
