Mamma’s Hands Valley shelter helps women in crisis By Kira Clark SVR Staff Intern
Alva was a government employee, working at Ministry of Justice in her home country of El Salvador, when life changed. When Alva’s boss upset the wrong people, her job became deadly. “Men with guns said ‘You leave or I kill you,’” said Alva. “I can’t talk about this. It was really dangerous for me.” Alva and her son Daniel fled as refugees. Today, they live at one of Mamma’s Hands Houses of Hope shelters. See HOPE, 2

Carnation man launches new open-air market
SEAFAIR

The sign is up and the 77th Street Market is open, but then, it’s always open. The new venture by Carnation man Jeff Dunham is an open-air roadside stand, that he hopes will host farmers, ranchers, crafters and other artisans as it starts to grow. “It’s a lot of different things all at once,” says Dunham, a wood turner who’s selling his own works at the market and planting crops he expects to sell there next year. The idea behind the 77th Street Market, located just off S.R. 203 on 77th Street, north of Carnation, is to give small home-based businesses an opportunity to sell their products, at no cost. There are no up-front fees; vendors pay for their space on a sliding scale, based on sales. There are also no schedule commitments or minimum quantity requirements. Businesses can set up shop for a day or a season, with as little product as they have. “There’s no ‘too-small’ category here,” Dunham said. The 77th Street Market is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays. Interested vendors can contact Dunham at (425) 395-6028, or send e-mail to 77stmarket@gmail. com.

HOPE FROM 1 Staying at one of the Valley shelters for women and children in crisis, Alva has been working on gaining permanent resident status and learning English so that she can get a job in the health industry. “It is a home, a good place for living,” she says. Now in their 19th year of operation, Mamma’s Hands’ Houses of Hope offer struggling women a place to sleep, prepare meals, shower, do laundry, push for goals and simply function, day-to-day, in a safe environment. “We are a place for women who are ready to rebuild their lives, and work towards independence and self sufficiency,” says founder and president Denny Hancock.
Mamma’s origins In the fall of 1991, Hancock was in debt and losing his home. As he was driving away from the house where he had raised his children, Hancock realized he was blessed to have a family and supportive friends. Instead of feeling sorry for himself, Hancock decided to pour his time and resources into providing for people who had fallen into homelessness. Hancock began by serving dinner to Seattle homeless men and women out of an old potato chip delivery truck turned kitchen. Today his Valley ministry, Mamma’s Hands, provides crisis housing to up to a dozen women and children at a time. As Hancock spent time working with homeless individuals, he began to realize that warm meals weren’t enough, especially for mothers trying to raise small children. “I started to think about what it would be like to raise children in a homeless shelter,” said Hancock. “I wanted to provide something else.” Hancock began reading about a transitional home run by nuns in Chicago. When he called them to get information, they invited him up for a visit. The two nuns who managed the home defied stereotypes. Sister Connie, a former military officer, smoked and wore an eye patch. Sister Therese was tiny, and always tried to smooth over Sister Connie. “They ran a tight ship,” said Hancock. “Sister Connie always said, ‘We don’t put up with excuses.’” Their facility was clean and wellrun. Many of the women who left the ministry were self-sufficient and stable.
Setting the rules Inspired by the nuns, Hancock returned to implement their ideas in the Snoqualmie Valley. In 1994, he purchased Mamma’s Hands’ first house. Today the Bellevue-based organization owns three homes in the Valley and vicinity. Women are selected into the program, case by case. Each application is carefully reviewed as staff seek to place women in conflictfree living situations. “We have to thinking about everyone’s personalities and how everyone will get along,” said Mamma’s Hands employee Kaylene Fraser. Women must agree to attended required meetings and counseling sessions, participate in chores, follow house rules and abstain from drugs and alcohol “We explain the rules and make sure they are willing to abide by them,” Fraser said. General policy is that children should be age 12 or younger, “but we do make exceptions,” she said. Most women typically stay six months. “I honestly love each and every one of them, and they know it,” says Hancock. “There is nothing to compare with a 4-year-old looking you in the eye and telling you that they love you.” Volunteers are always needed for maintenance, babysitting, activities with residents and driving. The organization also hosts an annual auction and a number of corporate service days. Cash donations, groceries and help with utilities are often needed. • You can learn more about Mamma’s Hands House of Hope and its programs at http://www.mammashands.org.

444 Fire update: Mount Si trails open, wildfire now fully contained, being patrolled The main Mount Si and Little Si trails reopened Aug. 1 after being closed due to the “444 Fire,” first reported Friday, July 26. The state Department of Natural Resources, which directed fire-fighting efforts, reports that the fire was fully contained and controlled July 31. Hikers are asked to be cautious while using the trails, as the fire remains in patrol status. The Garden Loop Trail remains closed indefinitely. Initial reports indicated the fire was caused by human activities, but the cause of the fire remains under investigation. The 444 wildfire burned 18 acres in steep rocky terrain at the base of Mount Si, between the Mount Si and Little Si trails. Firefighters from the DNR and Eastside Fire & Rescue, along with two DNR helicopters worked to control the fire. DNR fire managers ask that the public remember to practice good stewardship of state’s natural resources and be careful when visiting wooded areas.

Outside jogging on the morning of Saturday, June 29, Snoqualmie citizen Lars Gunnarsson heard calls for help and realized a neighbor was in distress. Without hesitating, Gunnarson went to the woman’s aid, to find her husband unconscious and unresponsive. Gunnarsson immediately removed the man from the bed and began CPR until the Snoqualmie Fire Department arrived. Fire crews and paramedics started caring for him, transporting him to the hospital. By time they reached the hospital, the man had regained his pulse and blood pressure. By his timely, proficient actions, Gunnarsson saved a life. He was given the Mayor’s Lifesaving Award at the council’s July 22 meeting.
Eastside marijuana zoning meeting is today Fall City hosts the Eastside site of a town hall meeting on the zoning of marijuana businesses in King County, The Valley meeting is 6 to 9 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 7, at Fall City Library, 33415 SE 42nd Pl., Fall City. The first hour is an open house with King County staff available to answer questions. The public comment period will begin at 7 p.m. Following the voter initiative creating a state licensing system for production and sales of recreational marijuana, a King County agency has developed proposed standards for the zoning of marijuana-related businesses that would be regulated by the state and located in unincorporated King County, outside of cities. Copies of the proposed ordinance can be downloaded at www.kingcounty.gov/permitting.
Ask for that ID: Deputies get ready for another round of liquor stings in North Bend, county King County Sheriff’s Deputies are readying for a round of annual liquor patrols, starting in August and continuing over the next few months. North Bend Police Chief Mark Toner reports that deputies have started notifying local sales points, reminding them of the rules and ways that they can avoid illegal sales to minors. Random stings using teenage ‘agents’ will follow, putting vendors to the test. All sales clerks in the Valley try to do a good job, says Toner. “But kids are telling me that they’re able to buy beer and spirits at different spots,” he said. Furnishing a minor with liquor is a gross misdemeanor that carries a penalty of up to 364 days in jail and a $5,000 fine. “Another concern that is often overlooked is jobs — we realize that if a clerk gets caught making an illegal sale, they are likely to be fired,” Toner told the Record. “This is not the time for putting people out of work, and this is a key reason as to why we are doing our educational visits to the businesses prior to the patrol.” Historically, deputies see spikes in liquor sales just before school gets out, in late summer, and in October and November. Last weekend, a deputy arrested and booked a woman for allowing her home to be used by juveniles to have an alcohol party. In the last set of business checks, in 2011, “we had only a few sales and received very positive feedback from the stores, the schools, and the public,” Toner stated. “There is no way to determine how many accidents didn’t happen due to our efforts, but every one that was avoided may have been one or more life saved.” The goal behind the warnings and checks is to achieve 100 percent compliance, making the community safer for all. “I hope kids say there’s no place to buy a drink in this town,” said Toner.

ith King County’s sheriff’s deputies getting ready to do their annual liquor sales patrols—also known as stings—it’s important for local businesses, cashiers, managers and owners to understand a few things. First, that the person who bonks that bottle of wine or beer on the counter some time in the next few weeks might be younger than he or she looks and acts—and might be working with a cop outside to test you. So, second, you better know the rules. The goal of these annual visits is to save lives by following the liquor law, says North Bend’s police chief Mark Toner. When Toner and company run into minors who have alco- Seth Truscott hol, they always ask where the teens got it. They follow up right Valley Record Editor away, checking with store managers and employees to make sure they know the rules. But it’s also standard procedure to run random stings to make sure everybody’s on their toes. Sheriff’s deputies and liquor agents don’t play games—with a possible year in jail and a $5,000 fine, not to mention loss of your job as a cashier if you screw up, plus a charge of furnishing liquor to a minor in your file, this is serious business. The teens who come in to try to test you don’t carry ID, and Toner says they don’t come in during a rush to trip up a flustered clerk. But they may come in singly, in twos or threes. The lesson is, no matter what, ask for that ID.

We’ve been through a lot of changes, liquor-wise, in this Valley over the last year. From 1933, right after prohibition, until 2012, you couldn’t buy liquor anywhere but from a state agent. Today, the hard stuf is sold out of bigger stores and supermarkets, mostly. Small-time operators are few and far between, with Fall City’s decades-old store the exception that proves the rule. More changes are coming. The state and county are pondering how newly legalized marijuana will be sold, and where. If you’re wondering how cannabis will fit into the big picture, it might be worth attending the Eastside’s sole town hall meeting on marijuana zoning, 6 to 9 p.m. this Wednesday (today), Aug. 7, at Fall City Library, 33415 SE 42nd Pl., Fall City.

Fresh voices at Snoqualmie Arts Market
Golf for ‘Cats
An exciting new generation in live music takes the stage this week at the Snoqualmie Arts Market in historic downtown Snoqualmie. Performing at 1 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 10, is LocoMotive, a young rock band formed a year ago at Big Star Studio on Snoqualmie Ridge. LocoMotive has also performed at Finaghty’s Irish Pub and The Bindlestick, sharpening their talents on a repertoire of classic hits from the 1980s. Live music performances are becoming an important part of the Arts Market, which started July 27. “The music performances are like a real-life soundtrack to the whole scene here,” says coordinator Kim Ewing. “Guests can be talking with vendors, sitting down to eat, or shopping for produce, but they really take note of the music and have commented on it. For me, this simply means the music is good and they enjoy it.” Snoqualmie Arts Market (SAM) is at Railroad Community Park, noon to 4 p.m. on Saturdays through Aug. 24. In addition to music, SAM showcases local artists and artisan crafters, handmade burgers, salads, pastries and frozen yogurt, along with fresh produce from Oxbow Farm.

ning toward the Northwest Railway Museum, and then along the trail from the museum. When officers caught up to him, the man was belligerent and appeared intoxicated. He said he was jogging home, but had a warrant for a domestic violence assault, so police took him to jail instead.

Peggy Buckingham, a volunteer with the school supply drive and pastoral assistant at Our Lady of Sorrows, her church, drops off a few bags of pencils and such, then does a quick assessment of what’s there, and what’s missing. “I’ve bought about half of what we need,” Mount Si member and drive co-organizer Jane Benson tells her. What they need are backpacks, pens and pencils, paper, binders, folders, and all the other essentials to outfit about 200 Valley children for the start of school. Shoes, too. “To me, back-to-school always means a new pair of shoes,” said Jan Van Liew, who’s coordinating the ninth annual new shoe drive at Snoqualmie Valley Alliance. Volunteers from SVA and Mount Si will together pass out shoes and filled backpacks on the last two Wednesdays in August at the Mount Si Food Bank.
Sign-ups Both drives are estimating 200 students because that’s roughly the number who signed up for help with school supplies and new shoes at the food bank in July, but both know from years of experience that there will probably be more. They want to be prepared for as many as they can
be, during the Aug. 24 and 31 distributions. They will be, too, because the Valley is full of kind, generous people, says former organizer Nancy Flanagan. She spearheaded the drive from Mount Si Lutheran starting around 2003, a few years after Mount Si member Cindy Peach launched it as a joint effort with Our Lady of Sorrows, and says she’s never had to turn anyone away. Some years, she notes, she’s had a few extra supplies, which she just stored for the next fall. “On that first day of school, it’s so important for every child to feel like they’re prepared and ready to learn, and they don’t stand out for not having something,” she said. Congregation members give money, supplies and time to the school supplies project each year. Some donate cash, some buy a few items on the drive’s wish list or from the “apples” on a giving tree in Mount Si, or on the church bulletin list at Our Lady of Sorrows, and some buy it all, bringing in fully-stocked backpacks, ready to be distributed. Others help with their time, coming to the Mount Si work party to fill the backpacks. After the donation deadline, Aug. 12, Benson said she and co-organizer Joan Ritland will take inventory of all the gathered supplies, then start moving them into a larger room, and organizing them for the

will go further, too, Benson says, because she personally bought a supply of kid-sized paper totes with coloring books and other treasures inside. These are for the preschool siblings of the students picking up their supplies, she said, “because the younger ones always feel left out.”

work party, when “People just grab a backpack and a list and ‘go shopping!’” At SVA, congregation members can help out while doing their own back-toschool shopping. Donors take cards, each one listing the age, gender, shoe size and first name of a student who needs shoes, and then hit the stores. “We just tell our people to buy a pair of shoes that they’d buy for their own kids,” Van Liew said. All shoe donations are dropped off at the church, where Van Liew organizes them for distribution. Van Liew started the drive after talking to Flanagan, saying she wanted to help people with back to school preparations, but didn’t want to duplicate the other churches’ efforts. “It’s really cool that all these churches work together to give kids a really good start,” she said. Whether the children receiving the shoes and packs understand all the work that goes into it, they definitely appreciate it. “The kids are very excited when they get their new backpacks,” Benson said, smiling.

The rescuers
Valley’s search and rescue volunteers honored as 2013 parade marshals By Carol Ladwig Staff Reporter
Bree Loewen sees things pretty clearly, and acts accordingly. When she and her husband, Russell Anschell, found themselves in the mountains every weekend, they decided to move to North Bend. Since they are “heavy back-country users,” she said it only made sense for them to volunteer with Seattle Mountain Rescue. Because they have a 5-year-old daughter, she is a stay-at-home mom, and they avoid working on the same missions, to minimize their risks. It all sounds logical enough, but that’s not all there is to Loewen’s commitment. “It really comes down to ‘this is our community,’” she says. “We’ve been doing this for such a long time and I think people have really come to rely on us.” Loewen, a volunteer with King County Search and Rescue since she was 15, will represent the organization as grand marshal of the Festival at Mount Si parade Saturday. Festival volunteer Tina Brandon, who chose the 490-member organization for the honor, said by e-mail that she always tries to choose a grand marshal with “a real connection to the community—that will bring a smile or maybe a tear to the crowd.” Brandon, who’s lived near the Mount Si trailhead for 15 years and seen a lot of search and rescue efforts in that time, described how some of the recent incidents on the mountain — the 2012 plane crash and a missing skydiver earlier this year, as well as the overwhelming response from SAR volunteers —moved her to tears. “I can’t think of anyone more deserving than (they) all are. Or anyone more likely to get a great response from the crowd,” she said. Loewen, meanwhile, feels that she gets as much from her volunteer work as she gives. First, she says, “This is a beautiful place. There’s a reason we all live out here.” A lifelong climber, she says “This is my user group, and these people are my friends.” These people include her community, and the 51-member Seattle Mountain Rescue branch of Search and Rescue, in which she is the training chairperson.
SMR is one of eight branches in King County, and as the technical mountaineering experts of the organization, they are often in the North Bend area, where, she says, more than 90 percent of all Search and Rescue missions take place, “between Snoqualmie Pass and North Bend.” “We come out on almost all of the missions that happen in King County,” she continued. “We do all the technical rescue and anything in mountaineering, anything that’s difficult to access. We also provide a lot of field leadership.” Last year, rescue organizations in King County were sent on 128 missions, and SMR was on 99 of them. The most common call? Ankle injuries. “We probably get maybe 15 or 20 broken ankles a year between Rattlesnake, Mount Si, Tiger Mountain — those are the big three — and Mailbox,” she says. “Those have the largest numbers of users, so it’s just statistical, it’s going to happen there.” Loewen has volunteered and worked for Search and Rescue agencies in other places in the past, she said, but has never found the level of teamwork and professionalism she has here. “It’s kind of unparalleled,” she says, thinking about past missions. “Just the number of people it takes to carry out someone with a sprained ankle … It takes 30 people, because after you carry someone for a few minutes, your arms burn up.” Also, because the volunteers Bree Loewen are all recreational mountain users themselves, “There’s a feeling, whenever we go to get someone, that we’re getting one of our own.” Last year, Loewen went on 33 missions, some of them multiple days. She says she has “a great setup” for childcare when she’s on a mission, with both her parents and in-laws nearby, but she is also aware of the risks she’s running every time she goes on a mission, especially with her husband, a construction worker, doing the same volunteer work. “We definitely made some conscious decisions not to be on the same team at the same time,” she said, and family members understand. “It’s rare to go a year without rescuing someone that I know,” Loewen said, and “I think my family has come to recognize that I’m giving back to a group that will probably come get me one day!”
“There’s a feeling, whenever we go to get someone, that we’re getting one of our own.”

The 490-member volunteer organization was chosen for grand marshal honors in recognition of their dedicated volunteer efforts in the area. Left: SMR members train for a river rescue last January. Giving back is a challenge at times, requiring “an enormous amount of training,” and a minimum number of missions each year. Then there are the missions themselves. “Usually these things tend to start in the middle of the night — I don’t know why that is,” Loewen said on a recent Monday morning. “Whenever it’s least convenient, 2 a.m. Monday morning is very popular, and there was one that actually started at 5 a.m. this morning…” Rescuers keep their gear packed and ready to go, so they can respond quickly, she says, then “we’ll meet in base and discuss the overall big picture ... go through an incident action plan, then head into the field and take care of it.”
Sounds simple enough, and it is. “We do feel like we’re part of the community,” she said. “We don’t judge and we don’t charge.” Because she has a daughter interested in climbing and back-country skiing, she wants to keep things that simple. “There’s always the desire, as a parent, to have your child take up table-tennis,” she admits, but “You want to live life, doing what you want to do, and I want that for her, too. I’ll just teach her to do everything right, and make her read Accidents in North American Mountainering!” Loewen will probably keep her close to home, too, because she says, laughing, “This is a great place to get injured!”

embers of the Mount Si Artist Guild are eager to get you into art. That’s why the Arts in Festival Hall expo, which returns for a fifth year at the Festival at Mount Si this year, continues the emphasis on master classes by Valley artists and artisans. Artists at work include Jeff Waters, who will share techniques of watercolor painting, and Snoqualmie artist Patricia Tamburini hosts a class on acrylic painting. Portrait pro Mary Miller offers tips on photography, Richard Buchmiller will showcase basic cross-stitching and Hilde Gettinger will urge passersby to try a hand on her loom. Showing off his pottery technique, Jeff Griswold will be on his wheel. For the younger set, a children’s corner where children can work on their own, interactive projects is also planned. With one of the biggest festivals in the Valley, it’s a great opportunity to involve people in the local arts community, explains Alraune Chowdhury, a member of Mount Si Artist Guild. “We want to showcase art as a big part of what we do in the Valley. It’s a part of our cultural fabric. We have a very robust community of artists,” she says.
Live shows Arts in Festival Hall uses the Si View Community Center’s wood-framed indoor stage as a venue for live arts. On the slate: Dancers from Cascade Dance Academy, IGNITE Dance and Yoga, a local Zumba group, student dancers from Big Star Studios in Snoqualmie, a group of Irish-style dancers, and the Veils of the Nile, the Valley-based belly dancing troupe. Audiences are encouraged to come into the hall during the festival and see these performers, of all ages, showcasing their talents. Environment and community plays a role in how a painter, a dancer, potter or weaver creates. “It’s important for us to be there, be present, and the hall to be alive, being the center of arts in the middle of the festival,” says Chowdhury.

Festival at Mount Si’s annual fireworks gala is a gift to the community from Wyrsch family By Seth Truscott
N
Editor
orth Bend gas station owner George Wyrsch, Sr., always loved the thrill of things that go boom in the night. An avid Lions Club member, he staffed the charity fireworks stand in town. Every Fourth of July, the elder Wyrsch took his family to Carnation to watch the show. “He was always a bit of a pyro,” recalled his grandson, Bryan Wyrsch. “He loved fireworks.” It’s been more than three decades since Wyrsch took over sponsorship duties for what is today’s Festival at Mount Si show, a rare late-summer display that draws onlookers to North Bend on Saturday. George, Sr., died in 2010. His son, George Jr., and grandson have continued as owners and operators of the local Chevron and Shell stations, and Wyrsch Towing. “I like fireworks as much as the next guy,” says Bryan Wyrsch, son of George, Jr., who splits the cost of the show, about $15,000, with his dad. “It’s a neat thing to do for the town. It’s a way we can say thank you for everybody being customers and supporting us.”

Fireworks maker cians are usually several feet away, the launch is near simultaneous. They wear helmets with visors for protection, and use flashlights and the light from the flares to see what they’re doing. Finales are fired off electronically. A big show of North Bend’s size launches about 1,000 shells of all sizes. Shells launched at community fireworks shows are surprisingly big. An eight-inch shell weighs 20 pounds. A 12-inch shell, some of which are featured in North Bend, is so heavy that it’s lowered into its steel mortar by a rope. The biggest shells make a sphere of fire 600 feet across, which means their charge has to lob them 1,200 feet up. Most fireworks have names: The ones that shriek and spin are called “fox howls.” A “peony” is a common effect with a starlike explosion that turns into a bulging circle of stars. A “crossette” spits stars that explode into smaller, crisscrossing stars. Hoyle’s favorite is all noise: the shells called Salutes. “They just go up and go boom!” he said. “If they’re good ones, they make the windows rattle.” Pyrotechnics can be an exciting thrill, even for the people on the business end of a mortar. “All the young guys, they want to light the show,” says Hoyle. “I want the crowd to be happy and pleased, and nobody to get hurt.” Eagle typically fires one of its own makes for every imported firework. The Chehalis-made bombs stand out. Hoyle credits their decades-perfected recipes. “It’s unmistakeable. Eagle colors are more brilliant,” says Hoyle. “That really sells the show. People want Eagle fireworks because they are the best.”

North Bend’s show is the second largest one that Eagle Fireworks Co. of Chehalis puts on yearly, and is its longest running display. Eagle’s legacy goes back decades. It’s the oldest pyrotechnics contractor in Washington. Current owner Steve Thornton bought the company about 20 years ago. Thornton “takes the most pride in that show,” relates Chris Hoyle, an Eagle employee and pyrotechnic assistant. Coincidentally, it falls right around Thornton’s birthday, so it gets extra love. Eagle’s team is hopping in the summer. Part of the reason is that, by law, they can’t transport or set up shells until 72 hours before the show. That means North Bend’s show is set up the afternoon and evening of the event. It’s all action on the launching ground. North Bend’s show is mostly lit by hand with flares. The fuse burns at 55 feet per second, and the pyrotechni-
• Fireworks were invented in China, more than 2,000 years ago. The first mention of them comes from 7th century A.D. China. • China makes and exports most of the fireworks in the world—90 percent of all fireworks come from China. • The first Fourth of July fireworks display was in 1776, in the then-U.S. capitol city of Philadelphia. • Dreaming about fireworks means that you like to be the centre of attention and are showing off to others. It also symbolizes enthusiasm and exhilaration. • Fireworks are not fun for animals. Always keep dogs and cats inside the house when fireworks are being let off. Stay calm and make sure they have somewhere to hide. • The word for firework in Japanese is ‘hanabi’, which actually means “fire-flower”. • A sparkler burns at a temperature over 15 times the boiling point of water. Three sparklers burning together generate the same heat as a blowtorch. When your sparkler goes out, put it in a bucket of water. • France uses fireworks to celebrate Bastille Day and the storming of the prison of the Bastille. • Static electricity in synthetic clothing can set off firecrackers. People making firecrackers wear only cotton clothing. • At first fireworks were only orange and white. In the Middle Ages new colours were achieved by adding different salts. The hardest colour to create is blue. • Sparklers can be used to make funny pictures. All you need is a totally dark setting, a sparkler to draw with and a camera recording a long exposure. The world’s largest firework display to date was when 77,282 firework projectiles were launched in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of Kuwait’s constitution, on November 10, 2012. • Source: Wikipedia.com, thefireworksfirm.co.uk, ehow.com

What’s Cookin’ Chili Cookoff brings a taste of community flavors
The Festival at Mount Si lets you indulge your sweet tooth in some berry-licious activities. Juicy events at this year’s event again include the Burstin’ with Blueberries cooking contest, at 12:30 p.m. Saturday, and the cherry pie eating contest, 2:15 p.m. on Saturday.
A
Pie contest In this competition, hungry competitors attempt to eat as many pies as possible in five minutes. The winner usually eats close to two whole pies, berries, crust and all. Entrants will be divided into two age groups; ages 5 to 12, and 13 and above. Winners will take home a mini-pig trophy and bragging rights. Twede’s Cafe, which has sponsored the event since its inception, supplies the fresh-baked, homemade pie. Participants devise creative stage names to represent themselves, and spectators cheer for their favorites by ‘name’ as competitors pig-out on pie. Those interested in competing are encouraged to register at 1 p.m. at the information booth on Saturday, as there will only be enough pie for a limited number of adults and children. Then it’s just a matter of working up an appetite and scarfing down as many pies as possible. The event draws upwards of 300 spectators and creates quite a bit of noise. Contestants need to be at the second stage by 1:45 p.m., and all eaters must fill out a waiver form. Children under 18 must have their parents sign; you must be at least 5 to take part. The contest has made good use of the staple cherry pies at Twede’s Cafe. The pastries got a shot of fame from the Twin Peaks cult mystery series; Café owner Kyle Twede says he goes through about 70 pies a week.
Twede advises contestants to stretch their stomachs prior to the contest. Another tip: Be hungry.
Blueberries galore Lower on the mess scale, but just as heavy in food and fun, is the Burstin’ with Blueberries Dessert Contest. Lifelong foodie and host Jan Marie Johnson started the blueberry dessert contest for cooks throughout the Valley to show what they can do. Participants whip up their favorite home-made, blueberrythemed desserts to present to the contest judges. You can enter as many dishes as you wish. “I like to promote the local businesses and berry heritage of the Valley,” Johnson said. “It’s a great time to celebrate the season and what is home grown.” First, second and third prize winners will each receive a trophy. The top contestant will also take home $25 cash and five pounds of blueberries from the Bybee family farm. Those interested in entering one of their original creations can register at the information booth at 11:45 a.m. Judging begins at 12:30 p.m. and the winners will be announced at 1:15 p.m. To learn more, contact Cynthia Golpe of My Cakes at cynthia@mycakes.biz.

bubbling, well-seasoned pot of chicken chili won a major award. And brought mom and daughter a little bit closer together. In 2012, the Old Hens, a mother-daughter team of Deanna and Brittany Morauski, took home the people’s choice award in the Festival at Mount Si Chili Cookoff for their Chick Chick Chili. Deanna, who runs the Old Hen Bed and Breakfast in North Bend, has every year fun cooking with her daughter, and enjoys the hearty competition at the Festival cooking challenge, which is judged by a local panel and by the people. With Brittany, a Mount Si graduate who took part in the culinary program, Deanna explores how Murphy’s Law affects the art of the chili pot. “I try to get her to watch me deal with mistakes or catastrophes, as well as positives,” Deanna said. “We laugh our way through. It makes for wonderful memories.” One year, the stove wouldn’t work. Deanna had to convince a competitor teammate to help, which he did, after humorously refusing. Competition is real, but lighthearted. Deanna remembers how, one year, opposing teams handed one team a sympathy card for failing to win—even before the judging took place. “We were kind of poking fun under that tent,” she said. “There’s a lot of fun and silliness.” As ever, the battle rages on between the chili purists, who prefer their stew without beans, and folks who grew up with bean-filled chili con carne.
Above, soup cooks stir the pot in the annual Chili Cookoff. “I actually prefer no beans,” says Deanna, who refines her chili recipes annually, says there’s a lot of memories tied to the recipes. Deanna was honored to be chosen tops by the audience. With all chili cooked from scratch, the day of the event, you’ve got to have your soup skills sharp. Expect Deanna, teams from Sallal Grange and plenty of other locals to grab their chili spoons and return to the What’s Cookin’ Chili Cook-off, sponsored by the North Bend Bar & Grill, 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 11, on the festival grounds at Si View Park. There are two contests, a judge’s choice and the people’s trophy. Judges are local restaurateurs, movers and shakers. The people’s choice is made by festival-goers, who pay $5 for a chance to taste chili. Proceeds are donated to the festival. The community sampling begins at 1 p.m. Awards are announced at 2:15 p.m.

ou already know how great your pet is, but why not let everyone see it for themselves? Bring your critter to the Festival at Mount Si, and let him or her strut their stuff in the Amazing Pet Contest, starting at 4 p.m. Saturday at the lawn tent. “It’s very casual, you just bring your pet. There’s no pre-registration, no fee, it’s just a fun time,” says pet contest coordinator and event emcee Kathy Paulus. Pets, and their owners, can compete in two categories, Best Trick and Best Costume, so almost any pet can enter. A panel of judges will award trophies to the firstplace winner of each category, and second and thirdplace winners will receive ribbons. Prizes include gift baskets from dog-bone-bakery Paws-a-licious. Paulus is a longtime volunteer, and volunteer coordinator, with the festival, but new to the pet contest. She decided to run it after a mix-up last year that almost cancelled the contest permanently. “We were thinking of dropping it,” she explained, “but to me it’s a family event, so I asked how hard could it be?” Then she laughed heartily, adding “I’m a delegator!” Paulus praised the many people who have helped her put the event together, especially the teens who will serve as judges for the event, saying “I like to bring teenagers into doing some fun things for the festival.” Everyone will share in the fun Saturday, whether or not their tricks or costumes succeed, because Paulus says, “It has to be absolutely positive the entire time. And you have to appreciate what effort everybody has put into their trick or their costume … you have to make it fun and positive, so they’re happy to be there.”

North Bend’s Bybee berry farm open for pickers North Bend’s blueberry farm, Bybee Farms, opened for selfpickers on Monday, July 22. The farm is open 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., seven days a week, and picking conditions are great right now, reports owner Kelli Berlin. The farm has six varieties of berries. “It’s always good for people to call us or check our website before coming out to make sure we’re not closed for a day or two due to the uncertainties of farming,” says Berlin. No dogs are allowed in the picking fields. Bybee Farms is located at 42930 Southeast 92nd Street. Call the farm at (425) 444-8175.

A successful block watch program can make neighborhoods and homes safer, and could increase property values as city crime rates decline. Another benefit of a lower crime rate is that it could lead to fewer calls for police service, freeing deputies to focus their energies on other issues and to have faster response times to in-progress calls.
