YarrowBay hot topic for mayoral candidates

BY KRIS HILL

Todd Hulbert found out a year ago that opening a bookstore wasn’t easy but he discovered keeping it open is harder.

Hulbert, owner of Finally Found Books in Black Diamond, announced June 17 the store will relocate to Auburn. Hulbert took over after Bob Charles decided to retire from bookstore ownership.

Charles operated Baker Street Bookstore in the same location for 17 years.

The deal to buy the store from Charles came together just days before the doors were to shut for the last time.

In a release sent out June 17, Hulbert said he posed a twopronged question to newsletter subscribers in May: Should Finally Found Books move or close and is there still a need for locally owned, independent bookstores?

As the Black Diamond mayoral race kicks off, YarrowBay’s master planned developments and the city’s survival are hot topics for the candidates.

Three candidates, incumbent Mayor Rebecca Olness, Keith Watson, and Dave Gordon, will be on the ballot in the August primary, two of whom will go on to the general election in November.

Rallying for Rachael in the race for a leukemia cure

BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com

In a lab in Philadelphia doctors are re-engineering 9-year-old Rachael Weinstein’s T cells, teaching them to eradicate her leukemia from within.

In a few short weeks Rachael will receive an infusion with her new, stronger cells and then the wait will begin.

She is only the 18th patient in the world to participate in the

CART19 trial, but the results have been so promising, her parents Angelique and Craig are hopeful that this will be what will defeat their daughter’s cancer once and for all.

If all goes well Rachael could even be in school on the first day of class this fall.

“Our goal is to have her in school Sept. 3,” Angelique said.

Rachael was first diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leu-

JUNE SPECIAL

kemia in February 2012 after she complained of foot pain.

“From there we just started with the standard treatment for leukemia as every child does,” Angelique said. “After a months time they recheck to see where the children are and Rachael was not at the numbers that they like which put us in a high risk category.”

The standard treatment for ALL is two and a half years of intense chemotherapy or a bone marrow transplant.

“We were fortunate that Rachael had a lot of potential matches for her and a lot of families don’t have that option,” [ more CURE page 12 ]

MAPLE VALLEY FIREWORKS SHOW NEXT THURSDAY The city of Maple Valley’s annual Independence Day picnic will take place July 4 at Lake Wilderness Park. The day will include a fireworks show at 10 p.m. with musical accompaniment by the Maple Valley Youth Symphony.

Also included in the day will be live music and dancing and family activities.

Family activities begin at 4 p.m. with free arts and crafts.

The live band will take the stage at 5 p.m.

Bakers can show off their skills in the Pie Baking Contest.

There is no fee to enter and the pies must be homemade from scratch and have a fruit filling. Entrants can register for the contest online at maplevalleywa.gov or in person at the Parks and Recreation offices before July 2.

In the early 1980s when Shannon Henderson first started at a brand new Kentwood High she taught shorthand, typing and business machines.

Today Henderson teaches computer programming.

“It’s really changed a lot since I first worked there,” Henderson said. “Technology has really changed my career, but for the good, it’s been fun.”

In order to be on the cutting edge, Henderson applied for and earned a spot at the Cyber Security Boot Camp at James Madison University June 10-14, one of just 20 teachers selected from across the country.

The importance of ensuring students had the opportunity to learn the latest technology has led Henderson on many an educational adventure.

Henderson started at Kentwood in 1981 the year it opened then took 16 years off when she started a family. She returned to the school in 2000.

When she began teaching again, the school had a programming teacher who left and after the position was still open after a couple of school years, Henderson made a decision.

Kent School District offers free lunches The Kent School District sponsors free summer lunches for children 18 and under during the months of June, July, and August.

The program kicked off June 24. The

“I said, ‘It’s not fair for the kids to not have any computer programming (classes),’” Henderson said. “I thought, ‘It can’t be that difficult, I’ll just learn it during the summer.’ It’s been a such a great challenge. I’ve continually learned. It’s been a cool journey and one that I wouldn’t change for the world.”

In addition to computer programming, Henderson teaches business law and accounting, but her desire to teach kids about programming in a way which is engaging and relevant has led to that course growing considerably.

During the first semester of the school year she teaches a beginning programming courses using Java and the second semester she teaches about game programming.

“They learn all the critical skills they need to have when they graduate from high school,” Henderson said.

So when the opportunity arose to apply for the Cyber Security Boot Camp, Henderson applied, knowing it would be another tool in the toolbox for her as well as her students.

“I thought, ‘Gosh, this is something I know ab-

solutely nothing about,’” Henderson said. “Kids need to know about this for their future job opportunities.”

Henderson spoke to the Reporter June 12, three days into the program, and by that point the 20 educators learned a significant amount about how people break into computer systems through lectures and hands-on work.

“At this point we’ve been dealing with, talking about and using some of the software hackers use to crack passwords, to determine what ports are available in different systems,” Henderson said. “We’ve been learning a lot of hacking but not for that purpose. You have to understand that to go at the defenders side. It’s been fascinating.”

When she spoke to the Reporter by phone, Henderson said, that day they had practiced cracking passwords so they understood how to defend against it in the activities planned for the next day.

“We’re using a virtual program, a virtual operating system on top of the operating system on the computers,” she said. “We’re using pretend stuff, but, even with the pretend stuff we were able to get into the systems. And that’s just

great example of teachers wanting the most current and relevant information possible to share with their students. Our students therefore, will learn information that will give them a competitive edge over other students who are not privy to such up-to-date information and skills.”

Henderson described the professors at James Madison who ran the program as “brilliant.”

The Cyber Security Boot Camp was funded by the United States Department of Defense.

Henderson looks forward to sharing with her students and pursuing this area of technology further on her own.

“It’s been fascinating, I’ve learned a lot. My brain is full,” Henderson said. “This has just opened up my eyes to a whole other area I need to do some more exploration in and incorporate into my classes so that kids can benefit. Anything I can do to help kids and open up their eyes to options is worthwhile I believe.”

VITAMIN D AND OBESITY Studies have found that people who are obese tend to have less vitamin D in their blood than people who are of normal weight. This may be because of lifestyle choices.

For example, people who are sedentary and not often out in the sunshine, which is the only place the body synthesizes vitamin D on its own, have less opportunity to create vitamin D. However, the problem could also be that fat cells store vitamin D instead of letting it course through the blood. Vitamin D plays a role in bone health as well as in keeping people from getting a host of chronic illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes, and some cancers. If you are overweight or obese, ask your healthcare provider to test your vitamin D levels.

Vitamin D is important for fighting infection, absorbing calcium and maintaining a healthy immune system.

with the free software you can find on the Internet.”

While it wouldn’t be prudent to teach students about hacking, Henderson said, there are many applications for the knowledge she’s gained in the classroom and not just with her programming students.

“This is something I can talk about in my business law class,” she said. “This kind of career path might interest them, so, I want to educate them on what’s involved here and the kind of opportunities they have and how much money they can make. There’s hardly a niche in our society that doesn’t have a need for cyber defense. There’s so much that isn’t even addressed that’s vulnerable.”

For Kentwood Principal Doug Hostetter, the kind of approach Henderson is taking to her own professional development and teaching is vital for students.

“The workforce and the technology skills required are changing faster than schools can update their curriculum,” Hostetter wrote in an email interview.

“Teachers such as Shannon want to stay close to the ‘cutting edge’ of technology as required in our workforce. Attending this Cyber Security Boot Camp is a

Movin’ on up to middle school

Finally. Bring on the sun! School is out for summer.

Crestwood Elementary students along with others are bathing in the sun, years may be ahead of them for that wonderful school. But for us class of 2019 sixth graders, we are out forever from elementary.

That school was amazing.

We learned so much and I made so many friends.

Seven years I was there, I would never have thought it would have gone so fast.

Neither did my parents.

Like most schools, our last day was a half day. Kids were yelling their way home at 12:08 p.m. on a beautiful June 19.

The day though, was pretty great, too. Most of the day was consumed by an end of the school year assembly. All the school groups were recognized somehow by the lead authority of that bunch. Some groups like student council and track were recognized by standing in the middle of a sea of kids so you stuck out like a sore thumb, and most of the clubs were noticed by their name being called up and receiving a certificate on stage. Some groups were very small such as lunch helpers or office helpers but some were large, for example safety patrol or library helpers. That cluster was up to 50 plus people!

Next was the actual memories of 2012-2013 slideshow. That was created by moi, along with supervision and help of a few others. That was the hype of the day. There was hip music like “Gangnam Style” by Psy and “What Makes You Beautiful” by One Direction. Everyone was singGuest Columnist

ing, clapping, and laughing while enjoying their final moments of school. Funny pictures really helped that situation.

From there school was not even school. We were dismissed to a 20 or 30 minute recess, and that was basically it! I was stuck on safety patrol on my last day of elementary school, but it was sort of fun getting to see everyone leave. My ears were blaring, the buses and cars were honking like crazy. Kids were screaming and teachers were saying goodbyes to their students. It was a very good way to end elementary.

Next, Mattson. I’ve been there twice and both times I had a tour. Most of the sixth graders have some information on a few places like the library and gym, but I will definitely need some practice

when the orientation comes around. Other than seeing a few rooms the only thing I know is that the school is huge. Most of the kids that went to Crestwood with me are going to Mattson along with many other schools in the area. I’m hoping to keep my friends but I’m going to see a few new faces. Actually, a lot of new faces.

Change is good though, and I think Mattson is going to be great. Yes, I have a fusion of emotions, but excitement overpowers my fear. Some kids are petrified to be moving to middle school, but I am so excited to be ‘stangin up.

Annie Livengood of Covington is an aspiring journalist and will be a seventh grader at Mattson Middle School in the fall.

regular customers by name and drink. In fact, I always feel guilty when I drive through in the morning because I always screw up their rhythm.

As a regular you just pull in and your coffee is handed to you with this amazing smile and thank you.

It doesn’t matter which one is working at the window they all feel the same, that their customers should feel this is their second home.

Grabbing one of their coffees shouldn’t make you feel like you now have a status symbol when you walk in your office, head to school, etc.

Every time you see their cups they want you to smile and think of it as your home away from home. It truly does have the feel of being at home when you can curl up in front of the fire place with a book and a great cup of coffee, or on our hot summer days enjoy their home made granita, smoothies and fresh strawberry lemonade while you sit outside and relax.

Since 1991 when Connie first opened City Perk — originally called Austin Chase — she wanted to provide the best in customer service, have customers become part of her family, and most importantly be a supporting force for the community.

She has done just that and her customers absolutely love her! I was witness to many of these conversations Tuesday morning.

I loved seeing the smiles on peoples faces when Connie was sitting with me. They could come up and give her a hug, thank her for allowing them to use her shop for a baby shower, or Jason the barber who came in to show us this funny picture he took of us sit-

ting there and just laughing!

It truly is such a great place to just hang out and shop, of course! I love the jewelry, the soaps, pictures, candles, decor and more.

I think I am most excited about the new project we just created for her husband Steve.

He is the one that makes the beautiful bird houses you will see in there. But now he is going to be creating pallet jar chandeliers.

Connie and Steve make a point of supporting causes that are close to their hearts.

One of them is our local Susan G. Komen Foundation 3 Day Walk for the Cure team. She works with Tina McDonough, founder of Valley Girls & Guys!, to determine what the team needs each season.

Currently you can go in and see this breathtaking wine barrel that will be part of the auction that is coming up next month.

Throughout the year they continually support the Maple Valley Food Bank along with their customers to provide families with backpacks, Christmas presents, turkey dinners and so much more.

She also opens her doors to anyone who needs a place to do a fundraiser, bible study, Bunco events and more.

During construction at Four Corner Square, where City Perk is located, enter between Dairy Queen and the City Perk building off of Kent-Kangley or come thru from the new Johnson’s building.

City Perk is open Mon. thru Fri. 5 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sat. 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sun. 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

ment has turned to frustration and downright fear.

I had no idea the hornet’s nest we moved into! Yes, the teachers are amazing but I have become aghast at the overcrowding, substandard facilities, lack of community support, lack of funding.

I now worry about my children’s health — they attend Lake Wilderness Elementary with a myriad

of structural and mechanical issues as well as known mold problems.

I worry about them socially — some of their friends are already being redistricted out of LWES because of overcrowding.

I worry about their future in this school system — which elementary school will they end up at next year? Or the year after that?

We moved here from out

of state and bought a house site unseen as to avoid moving our children twice and ease their transition.

What do I tell them when they are involuntarily uprooted again? And what happens when that school becomes overcrowded?

From what I hear we’re nearly there already which has prompted talks about rotating year round schedules.

This doesn’t even take into account the teachers!

How many of our amazing teachers are going to stick around under such poor conditions?

I am beside myself. This is not what we read about when we were doing our research on area school districts.

Where was this info beforehand? Sadly what I hear after talking to many

we are saddened to leave our historic building and town, the current issues facing the book industry have mandated that we needed to move or close. With e-readers, the Internet, big box stores, and Amazon’s discounting, our customer base has dwindled and the small community here simply can no longer support a larger independent bookseller. In fact, many communities across the

nation are losing many of their local businesses due to a lack of support. If people don’t get out and frequent them, they will die or in our case, move away.”

Hulbert said the site in Auburn — 3705 Auburn Way N. — fit the criteria for the right building based on information about competition, market demographics, input from patrons as well as the fact it is located 20 minutes from an existing

retail site, is convenient in many ways and had favorable lease terms. All those factors made the decision easier, he said in the release.

Finally Found Books will close July 14 in Black Diamond and re-open Aug. 20 in Auburn.

Hulbert, who owns an online clothing and apparel business, told the Reporter in June 2012 he had books but no place to put them.

In fact, he had more than

150,000 used books he had acquired, sitting in storage.

Most of them are now lining shelves in Finally Found Books.

Hulbert’s task now is to move them to the new location. It was a challenge to get the Black Diamond store set up, he told the Reporter in 2012, describing it as “the most demanding task of my life, trying to sort these books.”

That, however, is what

awaits.

“Although we don’t look forward to relocating our 100,000 plus tomes, we are excited at the prospect of a healthy business, supporting our community, and offering a great space for gathering, socialism, and a love of books,” Hulbert said in the release. “In return, we hope the community will support us during the next month and in our new location.”

Do baby teeth really matter?

YES – they matter a lot!

Anticavity Tip: Water consumption is the most effective way to slow cavity progression in children because of its natural ability to reduce intraoral acidity and cleanse the mouth.

How much water is enough? As a general rule, the amount of water your child should consume (ounces) a day is equal to half their total body weight in pounds.

Example: 28 pound child = 14 ounces or 2 cups; 46 pound child = 23 ounces or 3 cups.

will be a key concern for the city.

“The thing that I think people don’t realize is that everything is incremental,” Olness said about the MPDs. “They build a certain number of houses and there’s a checklist that if this impacts traffic more than they said it would, or whatever, or if they don’t use the design guidelines then the city issues no more permits until they fix everything. It’s really a safeguard.”

Providing services for residents now is something Olness sees as a major challenge for the city in the short term.

“Again, I think we’ll be OK in two or three years,” Olness said. “I believe that if we are very, very careful we can maybe tread water for two or three years until we get some revenue. And that has to be through businesses and through growth.”

The city is currently engaged in a funding agreement with YarrowBay which should help the city stay afloat until the growth materializes.

“YarrowBay decided to do that (the funding agreement) so that when they were doing they’re applications there would be adequate staff to take care of things,” Olness said.

“Now YarrowBay funds, I believe, 19 out of 21 (city staff positions).

Correct watering key to hanging basket plant health garden.

Here are some tips for keeping baskets and container gardens happy once you take them home form the nursery.

Keep your baskets watered â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not too much.

Incorrect watering is the number one reason container gardens and hanging baskets fail to thrive. Most hanging baskets need water every single day â&#x20AC;&#x201C; unless they are subjected to heavy rains or cold nights. You need to water until you see the drainage run out from the bottom of the pot. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t water a plant that looks wilted without first poking your finger into the soil. Overwatering or poor drainage will rot the roots of any plant and the result is a plant that looks thirsty but is actually drowning. Poke your bare finger into the soil down to the first knuckle. If the soil is moist, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t add more water â&#x20AC;&#x201C; check to see that your potted plants are not being swamped by rain or sitting in a saucer of their own drainage water.

Fuchsia baskets are especially sensitive to faded blooms. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remove Marianne Binetti

The Compleat Home Gardener

The last week of June is when outdoor living really begins. Nurseries are still filled with flowers to fill your container gardens and landscaped beds and it is not too late to start a vegetable garden or plant some incredible edibles like blueberries, cucumbers, herbs, and potted patio tomatoes and peppers.

To conserve water and cut back on lawn weeds, raise the height of your mower this week so that you are removing only one third of the grass blade when the lawn is two to three inches tall. A lawn allowed to grow taller in the summer casts shade onto the roots to keep sun-loving weeds from sprouting and conserves the moisture already in the soil.

Got hanging baskets?

Baskets are fantastic celebrations of summer and now is when you can find fuchsia baskets on sale to hang from a shaded porch, ivy geraniums in a container to splash across a sunny patio and mixed displays of blooming annuals to brighten every part of the

the old flowers and the berry-like bead just behind the blossom of a fuchsia then the basket will stop flowering as it puts energy into seed formation. Snip back petunias, verbenias and other overly enthusiastic annuals in baskets or pots if they start to grow leggy. Remove the spent blooms from geraniums by bending back the stem from where it is attached to the trunk of the geranium.

You should feel a satisfying snap when you dead head geraniums.

Plants in pots cannot search out food with long

reaching roots. Hanging baskets do best when they are fed with a liquid plant food every week â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but at a diluted level. If you are not going to give weak but weekly feedings to your plants then add a slow release plant food like Osmocote to the soil so that they can enjoy a constant supply of nutrients even if you forget to feed them.

Avoid the heartbreak of coming home to dirty laundry and dead plants when you return from summer vacation. The best plant insurance is a trusted neighbor to water your

potted plants while you are away but for short trips you can soak your pots and then move them into the shade or place potted plants into a shallow wading pool with a few inches of water.

Drip irrigation on a timer is another option to keep your plants hydrated for weeks at a time.

When you see hanging baskets on sale this week donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fret if you have no place to hang them. Simply set the basket down in a leaky bird bath or empty pot turned upside down.

Anything from an old stump to a metal chair can

be used as a holder for a hanging basket. You can also bring the basket home and carefully deconstruct it or remove all the plants from inside the basket. If you immediately plant and water the plants you just removed you can fill several smaller containers with the abundance of plants that fill a large basket. Use a serrated bread knife to saw through the roots so that each plant has a root ball before you transplant them to a new location.

Swimmer turned coach on deck at Pacific Lutheran Kentwood grad Courtney Eronemo is giving back to the swimming community through coaching

BY KATHERINE SMITH

ksmith@covingtonreporter.com

KENT PLAYERS EARN ALL-STATE BASEBALL HONORS Kentwood High catcher Reese McGuire and Kentridge pitcher Jeremy Rabauliman were selected for the 2013 Class 4A All-State first team by the Washington State Baseball Coaches Association.

Kentridge junior infielder Joe Wainhouse and Kentwood senior outfielder Tanner Wessling were named to the second team.

These days Kentwood graduate and swimming standout Courtney Eronemo can be found coaching on the pool deck or in class at Pacific Lutheran University where she is the assistant swim coach and is studying for her second degree.

Eronemo competed at the 2004 U.S. Swimming Olympic trials when she was 16 and graduated from Kentwood in 2006 after winning six swimming state titles in six different events.

She then attended the University of California at Berkley where she studied biology and nutrition and swam for the Bears. Her main events were the individual medley and butterfly.

She also competed at the 2008 Olympic trials.

“When I went on my recruiting trips it was just the place I felt completely at home,” Eronemo said of how she decided on Berkeley. “The coach wasn’t trying to sell anything and she

really believed in making the swimmer better people, not just faster swimmers.

I saw a lot of growth opportunity.”

In all the experiences she had at Berkley, Eronemo said, the best part was the day-to-day life of school and training.

“My favorite moment is just the daily experience,” Eronemo said. “Just the waking up early every morning and walking to practice and 20 girls jumping in the pool and training our butts off.”

Eronemo gravitated toward studying science because it intrigued her more than English or history courses.

“I knew I loved health and I loved science, that was the kind of the brain I had,” Eronemo said. “I wanted to be involved in health and fitness but on a more scientific level, so nursing was the ultimate goal.”

After finishing her career in the pool and graduating from Berkeley, Eronemo

returned home to Washaway and I was at a family ington while she worked on dinner at my house and hammering out the details my dad was like, ‘I think of what she wanted to do they have a swim team, you next. should look up if they need “I didn’t know what any help.’,” she said. “So I exactly I wanted to do and just Google searched PLU I knew I had a home and swimming and emailed the parents who were coach and by the willing to support next week I was on me until I figured the coaching staff.” out what I wanted This fall will be to do,” Eronemo Eronemo’s third said. season coaching for The answer the Lutes. to that question “This year at came in pursuing Courtney Eronemo conference we a second bachelors had a phenomenal degree, this time (meet),” Eronemo specifically in nursing at said. “Our men and our PLU.

memorable thing, their expressions.”

While Eronemo loves what she’s doing and the chance to give back to the sport that has been such a big part of her life and has meant so much to her, she sees graduation from PLU and pursuing a nursing career as what will likely be her exit from the sport.

“I think when I swam in high school and college I got so much from swimming and so coaching is giving me an opportunity to give that back,” Eronemo said. “I love that right now I’m able to help the swimmers that I coach find the love of swimming that I have found but I think that’s the end of the road. I’m giving back right now and then I’m ready to move on.

I want a family and a nursing career.”

One of the biggest lessons Eronemo learned from her years involved in swimming is the value of relationships and doing what you love.

“I love swimming and the people that I’ve met through swimming are people that I’ll have in my life forever,” Eronemo said.

“And then also that if you love something and put everything into it that you have you can get whatever you want (out of it). There are so many opportunities within something like that. I’m putting that into nursing now. I love what I’m doing and that passion and compassion I have for patients I can tell, it’s the same emotions I had in swimming.”

Three candidates chase open Kent School Board position

DISTRICT COUNTS MORE LANGUAGES FOR CREDIT The world is getting smaller, and Kent School Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world language program is getting bigger.

Gone are the days where French, German, and Spanish were the only foreign language electives. In a school district in which 138 languages are spoken, the Kent School District is expanding its language program in partnership with the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instructions, with support from a grant by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

The new program, which was implemented this spring, assesses proficiency of students who already speak another language. The assessment allows them to earn high school credits for their current language skills.

This year students had the chance to test their skills in Arabic, Japanese, Mandarin, and Italian, in addition to Spanish, French, and German. In year two, KSD hopes to expand the options to other languages in which many Kent students are likely to be literate, such as Vietnamese, Russian, Somali, and Punjabi.

This spring 75 students participated, and 74 of them earned high school credit.

Next year assessments will be open to eighth-grade students for credit. Earning these credits allows students to focus on English as a Second Language classes, new languages, or other classes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kent School District serves students who reflect the workforce of the future.

Goers said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to apply a systematic business approach to addressing the challenges facing the district and positioning our students as life-long learners and accomplished contributors to society. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the fourth largest school district in the state, Kent has an opportunity and an obligation to impact a great number of our future leaders. Forward thinking from elementary through high school with clear, measurable goals outlined in the strategic plan is the first step in positioning the district for ongoing sustainable growth.â&#x20AC;?

Goers had a kickoff campaign June 8 at a gathering hosted by Paul and Debbie Willis.

Elliott was raised in Renton and has lived in Kent since 1978. He is a Kent cattle and crop grower and a board member of the King-Pierce Farm Bureau. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am a candidate because I want to help insure that Kent schools continue to provide a quality education to our children,â&#x20AC;? Elliott said in his candidate statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am not convinced that administrative decisions like increased short days are the best for our students. We must focus the bulk of our resources in the classroom, where learning occurs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to maintain local control of this process, not hand it over to Washington, D.C. The duty of our schools is to teach our children core subjects and help them gain practical life skills. The future of our work force and a prosperous community depends on this. We face modern challenges, but that is no excuse to fail in providing this generation with the educational foundation they need.â&#x20AC;?

Three candidates are running to replace Tim Clark for Position No. 5 on the Kent School Board.

Maya Vengadasalam, Carmen Goers and Bruce Elliott will clash in the Aug. 6 primary election with the top two vote getters moving on to the Nov. 5 general election. Clark is running for Kent mayor against incumbent Suzette Cooke.

School Board member Agda Burchard is running unopposed for the Position No. 4 seat.

Vengadasalam, a 22-year resident of Kent, will host a campaign kickoff from 6-8 p.m. Friday, June 28 at Kona Kai Coffee, 124 Fourth Ave. S. in downtown Kent across from City Hall.

Vengadasalam has volunteered for more than 10 years at Kent schools, according to her media release. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Serving my community has been an important priority all my life,â&#x20AC;? Vengadasalam said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Teaching the kids the importance of developing good work habits, staying in school and lifting young people up to believe that they can accomplish their dreams through hard work, a good education and community support - this is the essence of why Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m running for the Kent School Board.â&#x20AC;?

Vengadasalam emphasized communication as the key to accomplishing tasks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I believe in collaborating and building solid relationships with stakeholders to effectively link and improve policies, processes, and practices,â&#x20AC;? she said.

[ CURE from page 1] Angelique said.

Angelique and Craig opted to go for the transplant as children who receive transplants have a higher rate of achieving long-term remission.

In May 2012 Rachael achieved remission, which is a condition for a transplant, and a month later received the transplant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It went well, we had great success, we were passing all the markers, all the doctors were incredibly impressed,â&#x20AC;? Angelique said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then in January she started complaining of foot pain again which had been one of her markers before.â&#x20AC;?

By March Rachael had

officially relapsed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could do another bone marrow transplant with her but we arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ready to go down that path with her,â&#x20AC;? Angelique said.

Angelique and Craig were looking at other options and were considering what studies they could participate in. They heard about the CART19 trial at Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital of Philadelphia, which is specifically for children with ALL, through a number of sources before they ever thought theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d need it.

Once they knew Rachael had relapsed it became one of their top choices and Rachael met all of the study criteria.

itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an infusion, they just put the cells back into her,â&#x20AC;?

Angelique explained.

Angelique said they chose to participate in the study because it focuses on teaching the body to fight the cancer from within, without the side effects and limitations that patients who undergo a transplant face. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been living that life already, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re still living that life for us,â&#x20AC;? Angelique said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our daughter is 9, she needs a life. She needs to go back to school, she needs to have friends again. With CART19 she can do that.

She can go back to school in September.â&#x20AC;?

The last few weeks leading up to the trip are filled with packing and spending time with family as well as

looking forward to a future without cancer.

So far there are studies published on the first eight children. For two of them, the trial was unsuccessful â&#x20AC;&#x201D; one had lymphoma and one had B negative cells, Angelique explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It means hope,â&#x20AC;? Angelique said about the study. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It makes sense to us, fighting cancer from within.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really excited about this opportunity.â&#x20AC;?

Angelique said they look forward to participating in a study that can also offer hope to other families. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ultimately we just want Rachael to be a 9-year-old again,â&#x20AC;? Angelique said.

In May Rachael and her mom traveled to Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital of Philadelphia so her T cells could be collected and the doctors could test her cells to make sure they would grow outside of her body, as they have found that not everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s do. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rachaelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s T cells grew phenomenally,â&#x20AC;?

When Rachael and her family, including her big sister Aureliana, 11, travel back to Philadelphia later this summer Rachael will receive up to four days of chemo and then the infusion of her new T cells. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not even a procedure,

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are fortunate that we have a plan A and a plan B,â&#x20AC;?

Angelique said.

Another transplant is still an option for Rachael. For many families in the study, she said, it is a last resort because they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t achieve remission and therefore canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do another transplant.

Rachael began chemo again in April and once again has achieved remission, but Angelique said they know it is only temporary. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find any leukemia cells in her marrow currently but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been there before, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hiding somewhere in her body,â&#x20AC;?

Angelique said.

Requirements for the study included a relapse of ALL, no cancer in Rachaelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s central nervous system,
