SJCC project underway for new auditorium $5 million for construction of new state-of-the-art facility on Mercer Island

By Mary L. Grady

editor@mi-reporter.com

Remodeling is probably not the right word for the $5 million construction project focused on a complete rehabilitation of the existing theater/auditorium and adjacent public space within the heart of the Stroum Jewish Community Center on East Mercer Way. Reinvention or renewal just might be a better way to describe it and the changes that lie ahead for the center.

SJCC CEO Judy Neuman calls it a transformation for the facility that will lead it to becoming

an even more essential element for Jewish life here and the larger community it serves.

Over the past many months the SJCC leadership has met to sharpen its view of the future for the institution based on its underlying values and the desires of its members.

The last capital campaign for remodeling the center was in the mid-1990s.

Most important in these discussions was the focus on the cultural aspects of Jewish life, Neuman explained.

“That is our overriding mission,” she said.

“When we chose to focus on the auditorium and the adjacent public areas first, we had to look at how they fit in within our mission and values,” she explained.

She pointed to the center’s mission

statement, “to create outstanding programs, partnerships and spaces that welcome everyone to learn, grow and celebrate Jewish life and culture.

“And there were some relatively straightforward questions that we asked ourselves,” she continued.

“What do our members want more of, and how do we accomplish those goals?”

A new, flexible auditorium/theater with adjacent, expanded open spaces integrate both the center’s focus on Jewish culture and the desire to have a place for gatherings and celebrations for members and the larger community, she said.

But the JCC is not just for those who are Jewish, she explained.

“We serve as an outreach to the Jewish community for Jewish life and culture. We are very culturally based. But our membership includes a large share of families and individuals who are not Jewish,” she said.

To set it all in motion, the board

Though it just opened last month, new store Terra Bella on Mercer Island is already adding features.

The shop, located across the street from Albertsons and next to Veloce Velo, will begin hosting food trucks this week in its parking lot.

“We’re really excited,” said owner Nancy Meade. “Everyone we’ve told about this has been really excited.”

For the time being, the trucks will be in the lot on Tuesdays and Thursdays for lunch from 11 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., and then for dinner

of directors set about asking a small group of donors for money to get this first phase of construction underway.

“While this is not an insignificant project,” Neuman said, “it is the first of many that we believe we will do in the future.

The idea is to successfully bring this one to completion, then demonstrate its success — and that of the ‘J’ — then build on that success for the next phase.”

The project is already well underway with a complete gutting of the existing theater/auditorium. The new space will have seating for 350 rather than 230 in the old configuration.

The new seats can be easily folded away into a much smaller unit than before, freeing up floor space to be used for celebrations such as bar mitzvahs, weddings and the like.

In addition, the old space was windowless and had dark coverings on the walls and seats. The plan calls for placing several skylights in the roof and windows along the north side, which can be covered with a touch of a button during performances and shows.

Nearly 200 people can be seated at tables for plated dinners in the remodeled space. The existing stage will remain.

The entire space will be rewired and reworked for a state-of-the-art digitized

really become a theater for the community, Neuman said.

Neuman emphasizes that this is not a money-making enterprise. “Our first obligation is to our members, but we will want to share with others,” she said.

But of course, as any property owner knows, upkeep is key.

And to that point, the first order of business for the 92,000-square-foot building was to replace the roof at a cost of $600,000.

At the present time, the SJCC is operating at

capacity, she said, pointing to the parade of children enrolled in summer activities marching through the hallways.

“We have 12,000 visitors every year,” she said. “We have many needs to deal with.”

And the ‘J’ is committed to sustainability, Neuman said.

During the demolition, nearly everything is being recycled or repurposed.

Even the auditorium seats are not being sent to a landfill. Parts and pieces of those are being reused.

Lawmakers grappled Washington lawmakers on Wednesday with what feel they did a better job at they should and should not funding public schools this emphasize to show they’ve made steady progress as year.

Now they hope it’s enough demanded by the court.

as training and evaluating teachers, and aiding schools with large numbers of students who fare poorly on tests of basic skills.

Democratic members also want to make sure that justices know the Legislature took money out of public schools by not providing teachers with a cost-of-living adjustment in wages, as sought by Initiative 732.

They said not paying the COLA amounted to a cut in education spending, reviving a partisan argument voiced often during the protracted legislative session.

“I absolutely think we don’t hide this COLA suspension in the closet,” said Sen. Christine Rolfes, D-Bainbridge Island. “I’d rather be honest and transparent about the salary issue.”

Rep. Jamie Pedersen, D-Seattle, said it would be “really misleading” to say the Legislature put $1 billion more into basic education without subtracting the $295 million for the COLA that was cut.

Rep. Gary Alexander, R-Olympia, one of the pan-

el’s two chairmen, objected to the Democrats’ request.

He said the Legislature had suspended those increases in previous budgets so their action amounted to a continuation of that policy and not a cut.

Meanwhile, Alexander said education reforms adopted by the Legislature should be emphasized as much as the dollars, because the court wants to see what the state is doing to improve the academic achievement of students.

But Democrats pushed back.

Pedersen said it was “certainly not my understanding or reading of McCleary” decision to give extra attention to those policies.

This will be the Legislature’s second report to the Supreme Court.

Justices criticized the first one submitted in September 2012, saying that it failed to demonstrate steady progress

in meeting the goals set out in the decision.

The committee writing the report is made up of eight people. It is divided evenly among Democrats and Republicans in each chamber with each caucus providing two members.

No Senate Republicans or members of the Majority Coalition Caucus attended Wednesday’s meeting.

The committee is scheduled to meet again on Aug. 20.

MISD board meeting Aug. 8 The Mercer Island School District Board of Directors will meet on Thursday, Aug. 8, at 7 p.m. in City Council chambers.

On the agenda is an update on I-90 tolling, the preliminary budget for 2013-2014, and the discussion of facilities and capital assets.

t is good news that several new businesses have chosen to open on Mercer Island. More choices help everyone. More places to shop or eat means more people on the street. People headed to one business or restaurant might just check the one next door. More money spent on Mercer Island means a more vibrant community and more sales tax revenue to the city.

Construction continues on The Mercer projects. A new hotel is being planned at 76th and the Sunset Highway.

Just down the block is the new Legacy project with apartments and commercial space. But there is more. There are at least eight homes listed for sale here that are labeled as ‘new construction’ with more in the pipeline. Community institutions are being remodeled or reinvented, such as the Stroum Jewish Community Center, which will spend $5 million reinventing their theater and public gathering areas there. The library is about to undergo an extensive renovation. Rite Aid has remodeled, as has QFC and Albertsons. Even the old ticket office next to the bike shop across from Albertsons has a new life as Terra Bella, an alluring decorating and home furnishing shop. Who knew?

Soon, there will be more construction — along I-90, the school district, at the YFS Thrift Store at Mercerdale Park and maybe Youth Theatre Northwest. All of these projects are signs of an improving economy and the release of pent-up demand for services. Again, they will bring tax dollars to the city and state. Workers, visitors and new residents will spend money. Are there downsides? Yes. More congestion. These new endeavors sometimes displace the old and familiar. Streets and views will be blocked. There will be more competition for a shrinking amount of space.

There will be loss — and a bit of anger and regret. Just why are the new buildings so tall? Where can I park now?

More buildings. More people. More vehicles. Regional planning agencies have long predicted these trends and planned for meeting them via the state’s Growth Management Act. The surge, delayed for a time, is back.

All of these projects are signs of an improving economy and the release of pentup demand for services.

To the editor Response to good Samaritan story This is a response to the article in the Reporter (July 24, 2013), “Man threatens good Samaritan with sledgehammer.”

I had a little trouble grasping all the elements of this article. It seems that a man (good Samaritan) with his family had taken a lost woman home on East Mercer Way. He was confronted by a homeowner with a sledgehammer who threatened the man if he didn’t move his car from his driveway. A scuffle occurred.

At this point, the homeowner’s wife came out of the house with a loaded handgun. The driver then quickly moved to his car. The police arrived and took the gun, clip and sledgehammer into evidence.

I find the woman’s actions appalling. What did she expect to do?

Shoot the man who had misparked?

Accidentally shot her husband, the family in the car, a passerby, a neighbor?

Did we have a George Zimmerman situation here? Yes! Luckily, nothing tragic happened.

By the numbers: Seafair patrols This year, though attendance was down, marine patrol on Lake Washington was still busy for Seafair.

During the event, 473 vessels were contacted and 34 BUI arrests were made — less than half the number of arrests over previous years, according to MIPD Commander Leslie Burns.

“Overall, it was a very quiet Seafair event,” said Burns. “The number of people on the Island to watch the air show was the smallest crowd I have seen in 17 years for the three the driver’s side window was smashed and his iPhone 4S and adaptor cord were missing.

CAR THEFT: A 22-year-old Mercer Island woman reported the theft of her 1989 Jeep Grand Cherokee from

days of the event.”

No injuries were reported.

Fifteen people refused to take a breath test, resulting in a $2,050 infraction, while four people were booked for BUIs. Forty-two infractions were issued over the weekend, and there were four medical assist calls. Two handguns were seized and one person was booked for possession of a stolen firearm.

Four search warrants were granted for blood draws, and one search warrant was granted for a vessel. The subject was booked for Violation of Uniform Controlled Substance Act. her driveway in the 3800 block of East Mercer Way.

Residents warned of new telephone scam

By Rob Jira

rob.jira@mercergov.org

A new telephone scam is sweeping Mercer Island.

Scam artists are calling up residents pretending to be representing law enforcement agencies, even the Mercer Island Police Department, asking for donations. These scam artists are asking for credit card numbers and personal information over the telephone to try and get you to “donate” to a good cause.

What you are doing is providing these scam artists with your personal credit card information and all of your sensitive personal information they will need to make fraudulent charges against your credit cards/ credit score. You are also providing them with information to open new fraudulent accounts in your name.

Not only can this hurt your credit score, but it can also cause unnecessary financial woes in your daily lives.

The first thing you need to remember is this: the Mercer Island Police Department will never call you and ask for a donation. We will also never ask you for your personal information over the telephone, unless it pertains to an investigation. However, keep in mind that some nonprofit agencies may be affili-

ated with law enforcement and do call up asking for donations.

Here is a tip to keep you safe from this scam: • Call and verify the legitimacy of the agency and claim. If they are claiming to be a police department, ask for their name and phone number, then tell them you will call them back. Go to your computer and cross reference their agency by searching for that police department online. Call the number you find online and inquire into the “donation” before you proceed any further. Then it is up to you on whether you want to donate your money to them.

Here are some important things to remember when dealing with other popular scams: • Other scams that we deal with target our elder community. These scam artists will attempt to prey on the trusting nature of people in their later years. Usually a scam artist will find the name of your family member, call you, and pretend to be that relative in trouble trapped in a foreign country. The scam artist will usually ask you to send money through a money order (i.e. Western Union) to “bail” them out of trouble. The scam artist will also ask you not to tell anyone about them being in trouble because they do not want anyone in their family to find out about it. The best advice that I can give you is to immediately call a family member to check on the location of the person claiming to be in trouble.

• Another popular scam is when someone will call you or send you mail saying that you have won a large sum of

New dermatology clinic brings doctors closer to home

By Megan Managan

mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

When it was time to be closer to home, the Gartons started looking for a place to establish their own dermatology clinic on Mercer Island.

Doctors Kyle and Rachel Garton, both dermatologists, will be the primary physicians at the new Dermatology Clinic.

The new clinic, located at 7707 S.E. 27th Street, Suite 104, next to Walgreens, was inspired by the pair’s desire to be closer to home. Since they already live on Mercer Island, it seemed like a natural fit.

“Like everyone, we moved here about three or four years ago for the schools. It’s a pretty common reason for people to move to Mercer Island,” said Dr. Kyle Garton.

“We’d been in Seattle since graduating from medical school, which was over 10 years ago. Rachel, my wife, the other dermatologist who will be here, worked at Group Health for about

10 years. A big reason for wanting to be here, we’re big believers in living and working in the same place, especially with three kids.

We’ve really grown to love Mercer Island and said let’s start a practice here.”

Rachel Garton will be the main doctor at the clinic as her husband will continue his work with medical students at the University of Washington and part time at another clinic in Bellevue.

Garton said he believes the practice is a good fit on the Island because they plan to focus on medical dermatology, helping patients with any problems related to their skin.

“Our real focus is medical and surgical dermatology,” he said. “It should be a really good complement to the other folks who are on the Island. We don’t do a lot of cosmetic procedures. If you look at your skin and there is a problem with it, we treat that.

One of our strengths that we can hopefully offer to

Doctors Kyle and Rachel Garton recently opened the Dermatology Clinic on Mercer Island. the community is we can take care of very complex to very simple conditions.”

Garton said more complicated procedures will be referred out, which gives them the ability to help patients pick and choose the right fit for them.

“We can be very picky and say, you should see this person and you should have this reconstruction done by this plastic surgeon because they are the best. I can be very selective,” said Garton.

A big part of any dermatology practice, Garton said, is helping to educate people about their skin and when it’s time to see a doctor.

“One of the biggest things we do is skin cancer

screening and protection.

The people who typically are going to need a dermatologist are people who have had a history of skin cancer, has a family history of melanoma or has simply noticed a change in their skin,” said the doctor. “Those are the folks who should really seek the care of a dermatologist. Also, patients with rashes, acne or psoriasis.

The good thing about the skin is you know if it’s broken. Pretty much, if it’s an abnormality, it’s a pretty good bet that a dermatologist should take a look at that. Or at least guide you and tell you what it is.”

He added that catching

Olympic Physical Therapy has moved its office to a new location on Mercer Island. The business is now located in The Mercer building at 7560 S.E. 27th Street.

Mark Bouma, one of the clinic’s physical therapists and clinic supervisor, said the business moved from its old office in part because of new technology and changes in the business.

The clinic was located in the Island Corporate Center for over 10 years, said Bouma, which was built to accommodate the clinic’s gym equipment, as well as patient rooms plus offices and space for charts and paperwork. Bouma said with all the changes in the last decade, and mov-

ing to electronic records, they just didn’t need as much space.

“The clinic we were in — we were there for over 10 years and it was a great location, but we just didn’t need that much space. We were looking for a new space and found this,” he said.

“We have the same gym size, and we’re able to bring all our equipment over.”

Bouma said Olympic will be expanding their athletic engineering program in the new office, and will be upgrading their computer system in the coming months.

“It’s more high tech,” he said. “It’s going to be better for our patients and physical therapists.”

He said the new location is open and ready for patients to stop by, and they will host an open house once a few finishing touches are done.

Help Support the Great Work of these Hospitals Two of the best children’s hospitals in the country are located right here in the Northwest – Seattle Children’s Hospital and Doernbecher Children’s Hospital in Portland, Oregon. Both of these facilities consistently rank among the best pediatric medical institutions in the United States.

Both also support and benefit from state-of-the-art research organizations that are leading the way in pioneering new treatments and finding cures for many vexing childhood ailments. These two hospitals are making a huge difference in the lives of thousands of children from Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Alaska every year.

Seattle Children’s Hospital and Doernbecher Children’s Hospital are our Charities of the Month for August.

Seattle Children’s goal for every patient and their family can be summed up in three words: hope, care, cure. Offer every patient hope and care, and do everything possible to affect a cure. Whatever medical problem a child arrives with, there will probably be an expert doctor to treat it.

Seattle Children’s can call on the expertise of physicians in nearly 60 pediatric subspecialties who can provide inpatient, outpatient, diagnostic, surgical, rehabilitative, behavioral, emergency and outreach services. Patients also benefit from the wide-ranging research that is part of Seattle Children’s. As noted on Seattle Children’s website, “Seattle Children’s Research Institute has nine major centers, and is internationally recognized for its work in cancer, genetics, immunology, pathology, infectious disease, injury prevention and bioethics. It is among the top five pediatric medical research centers in terms of National Institutes of Health grant funding. In its quest to cure childhood disease, the research institute brings discoveries to

the bedside in partnership with Seattle Children’s Hospital and Seattle Children’s Hospital Foundation.” The Foundation helps assure that every child from the geographic region that Children’s serves can count on being cared for, regardless of the family’s ability to pay.

Like Seattle Children’s, Doernbecher Children’s Hospital combines patient care with cutting edge research. Doernbecher is part of Oregon Health & Science University.

This nationally ranked research institution has more than 4000 research studies underway and is involved more than 80 active pediatric clinical trials and databases. Doernbecher offers a broad range of pediatric care and treatment including: •

Pediatric bone marrow/stem cell transplants

•

Pediatric epilepsy surgery

•

Phase I clinical trials for new pediatric cancer therapies

•

Comprehensive care for infants, children and adolescents with brain tumors

•

Pediatric hemophilia services

•

Pediatric renal transplant

•

Treatment for inborn errors of metabolism

•

Most advanced non-invasive treatments for heart defects

TO CONTRIBUTE, HAND A DONATION CARD TO YOUR CHECKER.

Join QFC In Helping Children In Need.

A donation of as little as $1.00 could provide two diapers for babies weighing under 2 pounds in our Doernbecher Neonatal Care Center.

Effective Date: August 4, 2013 - August 31, 2013

QFC is proud to support Seattle Children’s and Doernbecher Children’s as our Charities of the Month for August. If you would like to make a donation to support these institutions please hand a donation card to your cashier.

Thank you for your support.

Because of its stellar reputation, more than a quarter of all physicians in the U.S. pursuing pediatrics apply to Doernbecher each year as interns and residents.

Island business earns county honors for waste reduction Mercer Island’s American Classic Homes was named to King County’s Best Workplace for Waste Prevention and Recycling list.

The business was named as one of 21 businesses on the honor roll, given to businesses making the county’s list for five or more years.

The business was named to the 2013 list for its work

at reducing waste.

“Understanding that their industry is generally paper heavy, the employees at American Classic Homes have switched to scanning, sharing and storing their paperwork through their online server,” the county’s press release said about the winners. “To further cut back on paper and printing supplies, they switched to a multi-use, central office copier/printer that keeps track of usage and efficiency.”

In total, 89 businesses were named to the seventh annual list.

Patriots Jet Team takes to skies for Seafair

By Megan Managan

mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

Though it was a quieter Seafair than in years past, thanks to the wet and cloudy weather on Friday and Saturday, that didn’t stop curious onlookers from checking out this year’s Boeing Air Show practice on Friday, Aug. 2, on Mercer Island.

This year the Patriots Jet Team practiced over Lake Washington on Friday afternoon, and performed shows on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

The Patriots Jet Team last performed as part of Seafair weekend in 2007 and 2008.

The team of six planes includes pilots who have flown with the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, USAF Thunderbirds

and Royal Canadian Air Force.

The team was founded in 2003 as a two-plane formation group, but have since expanded to the current six.

The team’s performances include a computerized red, white and blue smoke system.

This year’s pilots include: lead Dean Wright (#1), right wingman Rob Hutchison (#2), left wingman John Posson (#3), slot pilot Paul Strickland (#4), outer left wingman Rob Mitchell (#5) and right wingman Scott Ind (#6).

This year’s Seafair attendance was down by 45,000 people. Officials expected 160,000 to attend over the weekend, but fell short.

Marines on charity run to pass through Mercer Island Saturday, Aug. 10

By Megan Managan

mmanagan@mi-reporter.com

Mercer Islanders are encouraged to come out and cheer on a group of Marines as they run 100 miles through the greater Seattle area on Aug. 10 and 11.

The run will raise money to research brain diseases and injuries experienced by veterans. It’s the third year that Always Brothers, a nonprofit fraternal organization made up of Marines and other veterans, has hosted the run.

A group of Marines and civilians will leave from Leschi at 6 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 10, and run through Mercer Island, Renton, Maple Valley and Enumclaw before stopping at the Washington State Department of Veterans Affairs Soldiers Home in Orting.

During the Mercer Island portion of the event, the runners will cross the Island on the I-90 express lanes.

Island residents are encouraged to come out Saturday morning to cheer on the runners.

The run will continue through Puyallup, up through Sumner, Auburn, Kent, Tukwila, South Park and West Seattle, where the group will get a police escort over the West Seattle bridge to finish at CenturyLink Field at 9 a.m. on Aug. 11.

The event will raise money for One Mind for Research, a Seattle nonprofit that is dedicated to curing brain diseases, including traumatic brain injury and post-traumatic stress.

“My original inspiration for working to improve diagnostics and treatments for brain injuries was the incredible number of soldiers returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan with TBI and PTS,” said One Mind’s CEO Gen. Pete Chiarelli (Ret.), Seattle native and former Vice Chief of Staff of the
