Welcome sign set for construction

By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer

A proper sign welcoming visitors to Enumclaw has long been discussed at City Hall and, finally, it appears talk is turning to action.

Money had been set aside in the 2013 budget, designs had been created and tin-

kered with and a trio of likely locations had been identified. During their Aug. 12 meeting, members of the Enumclaw City Council neatly tied the loose ends together and gave their final blessing for the $22,000 project.

With needed dollars in the municipal budget, the task of designing a “monument sign” was handed to Pacific Northwest Sign. The original concept was for a sign between 20 and 25 feet wide and somewhere between 6 and 8 feet tall. Problem was, bids for a sign of that size ranged from $50,000 to $120,000.

The election for Enumclaw City Council Position No. 1 narrowed at the Monday, Aug. 12, council meeting when Pam Harding announced she has withdrawn from the race against Morgan Irwin.

Harding said she had contacted King County Elections and requested her statement of withdrawal be placed in the voter’s guide.

Despite her statement of withdrawal her name will appear on the general election ballot.

According to King County Elections spokeswoman Kim Van Ekstrom the last day for a candidate to withdraw was May 20.

Big burger goes YouTube viral Staff Writer

Beau Chevassus rolled up to the Enumclaw Jack in the Box drive-through and ordered a Jumbo Jack with 20 extra patties. That alone is a very large sandwich but he didn’t stop there; it contained the makings of several sandwiches, as well as two fried eggs and onion rings. The behemoth handed to him at the window clocked in at $38.23, an estimated 9,000 calories and measured more than a foot tall. It was named “The Kraken.”

The adventure was cap-

tured on YouTube and news agencies around the country took notice. ABC News, The Today Show and The Huffington Post were among the outlets to give Chevassus’ creation a bit of attention.

Yes, he actually ate the concoction and a week later, Chevassus still hadn’t finished but said he has every intention of doing so.

“Heck, I paid good money for it,” he said. “At close to 1,000 calories per sitting, it’s taking me a long time to finish it. I’ve been running a lot to make up for it.”

This isn’t his first rodeo.

Beau Chevassus built this 9,000 calorie burger and captured the building on YouTube. Courtesy photo Chevassus is a YouTube partner and got the idea for The Kraken after a previous video of his went viral. The previous escapade resulted in a $47.30

frappuccino, ordered from the Enumclaw Starbucks.

Skeptics may balk at the irreverence of ordering such extravagant menu items in the name of humor, but

where viewers will find “viral videos, comedy, martial art films, hidden camera stuff, & a few thoughtprovoking short films.”

Collectively, his videos have garnered more than 20 million views.

He also teaches a Christian-based form of mixed martial arts, called Kalos Agon, at Combat Sports and Fitness in Enumclaw.

“I throw myself 100 percent into whatever peaks my interest,” said Chevassus.

The question is, what’s next? Only time will tell what Enumclaw’s own “adventure videographer” has in store but he hinted at the possibility of a dessert.

No bids received for land across from park Family of Minnie Nolte say only parties with claim are The Holy Names Sisters of Jesus and Mary

By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer

The state of Washington failed in its initial bid to sell some pristine acreage adjacent to Nolte State Park, but the story appears far from over.

At issue is a 27-acre parcel directly opposite the popular park north of Enumclaw, just across VeazieCumberland Road. Members of the State Parks Commission declared the

land surplus months ago after determining it has no potential value to the state system. Bids were to be accepted through Aug. 13 with a minimum purchase price of $469,999.

No offers were received so the status of the land remains unchanged.

Virginal Painter, a spokeswoman for State Parks, said the department will most likely wait a while, then put the land on the market again.

Meanwhile, descendants of Minnie Nolte – who willed a large piece of land, including Deep Lake, to the state – haven’t given up efforts to see the land protected from the auction block.

When the state took ownership of Nolte’s property, which was used for

years as a popular, private resort, it was with Minnie Nolte’s decree that it be used for the public good. The land west of Veazie-Cumberland Road was made into a public park and remains a popular destination.

The land east of the road is another story.

Nolte descendants maintain is should follow the same dictates, that it be used for public enjoyment.

Painter said the Office of the Attorney General has ruled that State Parks can legally dispose of the land because it has been declared surplus.

Mary Vidano is a great-niece of Minnie Nolte. She shared in a recent

that is exactly why he does it, said Chevassus.

“I treat editing a video as a blank canvas,” he said. “I have connected my artistic passion with my faith but every once in awhile, I have to do something completely irreverent.”

Chevassus is the president of Knok Studios, a nonprofit group that provides creative media for organizations that wouldn’t normally be able to afford it. As a theater and religion major from Whitworth University, he is passionate about media artistry and doing good work with the talents he has. But every so often, he gets the hankering for something a little less serious, he said.

Chevassus lives in Enumclaw with his wife and young daughter. As a self proclaimed “adventure videographer” his YouTube channel is called BeauCh,

During public comment Harding said, “I must reluctantly withdraw my candidacy for Enumclaw City Council.”

After the meeting Harding said she recently started a new job after two years of unemployment and the demands of the job have increased. According to Harding, she is working for Next Dimension media, a marketing firm.

During public comment Harding said, “My professional life has grown to an extent where I cannot provide the time that is required of an effective council member.”

Harding said she is, “confident that the other candidate will do a fine job.”

tion. It was determined the monument sign will be at the northeast corner of the intersection of state Route 410 and Warner Avenue, in the vicinity of the Foothills Trail trailhead. The sign was originally planned to be closer to the trail, but – with the reduced size – the decision was made to move the sign as close as possible to the highway.

Other locations considered were Triangle Park at the intersection of SR 410 and Cole Street and a spot on the west side of 410 in front of the city’s wastewater treatment plant.

POLICE BLOTTER Enumclaw

MONEY ISSUE: Organizers of the Creation festival called police the morning of Aug. 11, reporting a possible theft of money generated through sales.

Contact was made with all parties and the complainant was to make further inquiries and follow up with police.

TWO ARRESTED: Police responded shortly before midnight Aug. 11 to a Kibler Avenue address and a report of people living in a tent. A man was arrested for violation of a court order and a woman was arrested on a warrant issued by Buckley.

SUSPICIOUS ITEM: An officer responded the afternoon of Aug. 11 to a Mountain Villa Drive address after someone found a package wrapped in black plastic with orange tape. The Washington State Patrol had the package X-rayed and opened. It was found to contain wet clothing.

MINOR IN POSSESSION: Police were advised at 1:04 a.m. Aug. 11 of a large group of juveniles running around a park and being excessively loud.

A female was taken into custody for being a minor in possession of alcohol.

She was transported to the city jail and evaluated by medical personnel.

TOO DRUNK: Police were called to a city restaurant at 2:01 a.m. Aug. 11 to deal with a man who passed out in his vehicle after receiving food at a drive-through window. He was taken into custody and his vehicle was impounded. Six minutes earlier, a patrolling officer had spotted an intoxicated man on Cole Street. He was taken into custody for creating a public

disturbance, cited and released.

THREAT ISSUED: Police were notified Aug. 10 after a teenager threatened to kill another teen over the theft of a wallet. The suspect allegedly said he had a gun and was coming after the victim. The victim claimed another person was responsible for the theft. A day earlier, police had been told of a wallet that had been recovered in the garbage with $600 missing.

NOT WANTED: A Porter Street resident arrived at the police station at 3:31 a.m. Aug. 10, complaining of subjects using drugs in her house and refusing to leave. The subjects were contacted and advised they had one day to move out.

GOLF DAMAGE: A vehicle parked at a venue on 284th avenue Southeast was struck by golf balls coming from the adjacent golf course the evening of Aug 10. A suspect was located and ordered to stay away from the course.

The suspect and the owner of the vehicle exchanged information and were to reach an agreement regarding damage done to the automobile.

HURTING BUSINESS: Staff at a Griffin Avenue business complained to police Aug 10 of a film crew that was blocking a road longer than was to be permitted. The road closure reportedly was causing a loss of revenue. When an officer arrived the filming had been wrapped up and the road was open.

HIT AND RUN: A hit-and-run incident was witnessed at 12:38 a.m. Aug. 10 in a Roosevelt Avenue parking lot. The witness informed the owner of the damaged vehicle and was able to provide the license plate number of

ASSAULT: Police were told at 2:52 a.m. Aug. 9 an employee of a Roosevelt Avenue business had been punched in the face by a male suspect.

The man also threw something at a vehicle and shattered a rear window before departing in a gray Ford pickup. The victim declined medical assistance and the suspect could not be located.

I finally had the chance last week to watch CNN’s documentary on Richard Nixon. The program uses homemovie footage shot by H.R. Haldeman, President Nixon’s chief of staff and others.

During most of the Watergate years I was in Philadelphia and, at times, in Bethesda, Md. I remember very well watching Nixon’s resignation in Philadelphia with a friend who was upset with the process. He was one of the few young guys I knew who were Republicans for Nixon.

I have always believed Nixon was one of our more intriguing presidents, principally because Dennis Box his demons were so Editor visible. Most presidents and political leaders at any level are far better at hiding their scares.

I wrote in an earlier column I did my first in-depth research of Nixon while working on an Alger Hiss project. Hiss went to jail for perjury following allegations by Whittaker Chambers that he was a Communist. Nixon was a representative from California and a member of the House Committee on un-American Activities. He was the sole member of the committee who believed Hiss was lying and, like a dog with a bone, he would not let the case

I recently read an article in this newspaper highlighting some changes to the EHS cross country program that will go into effect this year. Readers who aren’t familiar with the program or its coaches may have thought it all sounded great, but they would be wrong.

For almost two decades there has been a runner taking to the streets and track with our cross country athletes almost every day of every season. You may have noticed this more “mature” runner sweating alongside our kids as they made their way up Warner or Semanski. Assistant Coach Judy Revell was never content

Our Corner

LAST WEEK: Should the U.S. boycott the 2014 Winter Olympics is response to Russia’s crackdown on gay rights?

Longtime cross country coach treated unfairly

to wait at the school for her runners to return or supervise from her car.

She believes in a “feet-on” approach where she can put her 30-plus years of competitive running experience to work by modeling smart running, and giving encouragement as well as mid-run advice to the runners individually. Having received a “full ride” to Seattle Pacific University for her running talent, where she achieved All-American status her junior year in the 1500 meters as well as national ranking, and in recent years completed two Boston marathons with numerous qualifications, she has a wealth of running wisdom to share.

With patience and dedication Revell has worked within the “assistant” guidelines year after year waiting for her shot as head coach when unrestrained, she could apply her deep running knowledge. As this

season drew near, the start of which would usher in her 50th birthday, it was announced that the boys and girls teams would be splitting and each would have their own head coach. The assistant coach thought her time had finally come, only it hadn’t.

Coach Revell was informed that although coach Jacobson would remain as the boys’ head coach, she would have to interview for the girls’ top spot. Surprised by the news, she prepared to interview for the position she thought she had earned. It turned out to be the first of several nasty surprises which would eventually see her passed over not once but twice before learning through the grapevine that another coach had been hired.

Conflict needs healthy resolution I bet I can predict how you deal with conflict.

How can I do that? Because there are only five possible ways: avoidance, accommodation, compromise, competition and collaboration.

I recently took a weeklong Basic Mediation Training at the Pierce County Center for Dispute Resolution in Tacoma how to become a mediator. One of the things I learned is that conf lict is a normal and inevitable part of human life. Because it is a given, we all need to learn how to deal with conf lict in a healthy way.

Whether we realize it or not, we all fall into one or more of these

five coping strategies.

Which is the best way? Read on.

Let me define each of the terms to help you understand which one(s) you use as your way of coping with conflict: Avoidance: Rather than dealing

with conflict, people who use this technique don’t deal with it. They leave the room, don’t answer questions or change the subject. They don’t even want to think about strife so they blot it out of their consciousness.

In my experience successful politicians are masterful at this approach.

They are avoiders in that they know just exactly how to give nonanswer answers to questions by talking so long people forget what was asked.

Sometimes avoiders also just don’t answer; they leave the listener hanging.

100 Years on the Plateau!

The Wilkeson Products Company coal mine commenced operations in 1943, heavily capitalized with government funding to support the coal industry during those uncertain times. Much of American industrial expansion during World War II was financed through the Defense Plant Corporation. Plants were then leased to private companies. Pictured here is the working face of the Wilkeson Products Mine with large sawn timbers holding up the roof. Most mines used round timber, not milled lumber, due to cost considerations.

Because this mine was built with government dollars, frugality in construction costs was not a concern.

Despite the best construction and equipment that money could buy, the mine closed in less than two years producing a paltry 54,000 tons of coal, yet claiming the lives of two coal miners, Jack Cloves Smith and Harold E. Barber. This photo of the interior of the mine shows miner Jim “Corkie” Kelly. To the right is a ladder accessing a chute which is being driven up the coal seam. This March 18, 1944, photo comes from the Richard Studios Collection, courtesy of Tacoma Public Library, image number D17170-19.

Unfortunately, if one is dealing with a bully, giving in is only the beginning of demands. The bully is looking for limits and boundaries, not peace. Historically, accommodation was called appeasement and was the major cause of World War II. When dealing with nonbullies, accommodation will often bring peace without creating conflict and life will go on. I find that it’s easier to say, as I get older and find myself in conflict with my wife on matters of décor, “Yes, dear.” Sometimes it’s a better form of conflict resolution than a debate. Choosing one’s battles is part of the art of living.

Compromise: Representative democracy is supposed to be good at this technique for coming to agreement; lose a little, gain a little.

Unfortunately, our current Congress seems to have lost the art of compromise. It’s either I win, you lose, or you win, I lose, or we both (or others) lose.

This is what is happening after the

CORNER FROM 6 drop. It catapulted Nixon into the national spotlight, providing the first steps on his march to the White House.

The CNN documentary was interesting but, like almost all programs and works on Nixon, it leaves so many essential questions unanswered or unclear.

The obvious ques-

tions are: when he had the opportunity, why he didn’t destroy the tapes that eventually brought him down, and why did a person known for his political acumen allow himself to be defeated by his lack of political judgement?

The more vexing questions are what drove Nixon to be what he was.

The answer to that puz-

B

is just a resolution or recess until the next conflict.

As long as people remain in relationship with each other, there will be conflict. We all have perspectives and values that will clash with others. Reaching maturity in conflict requires us to realize that all these ways to attain conflict resolution work, depending on the situation.

The correct solution to a conflict will depend on the stakes, and the importance of the relationship of the opposing sides.

King Solomon stated this principle in the ancient book of Ecclesiastes: “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven: a time to plant and a time to uproot, a time to kill and a time to heal, …a time to search and a time to give up a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace” (Ecclesiastes 3:1-8).

The difficulty we mortals have in dealing with inevitable conflict is knowing which of the five conflict resolution techniques to use at the right time and with the right finesse.

That is the art of living in relationship with other humans.

zle is at the heart of what drives political leaders at all levels. This may seem far removed from our local races, but it isn’t.

The driving force is still complex as is all human action.

I often wonder why local folks are willing to run for office considering the atmosphere of whack and attack in American politics

recent decision to allow sequestration – government workers are furloughed and vital programs are cut without any choices allowed as to where the cuts should be made.

Competition: With this approach, dealing with conflict means that the stakes are raised to the point where long-term relationships are endangered and/or destroyed. Of course, sometimes this is necessary, especially if the opponent is not worthy of a continuing relationship. The ultimate example is war where you win or you lose and there is nothing in between.

Trial lawyers use this approach in our adversary-based court system. These are the times this approach is absolutely necessary.

Collaboration: This approach seeks synergy where both sides benefit from agreement, and neither loses. Creative solutions are found as both sides feel like their needs are met. The problem with this approach is that it takes a lot of time to get agreement, something not always available.

In my view, this is the ideal technique, but unfortunately with some personalities and egos, the stakes are often too high to be able to reach this ideal. The ultimate goal with this approach is to maintain and improve long-term relationships. This technique recognizes that the most important conflicts do not end; there

a whole nest of vampires, in most vampire films there are only a few blood-suckers praying on unsuspecting parties. Not so with zombies. In TV’s “The Walking Dead” and in Pitt’s latest movie, “World War Z,” there are entire armies of the hungry undead. Tens of thousands of them are racing down the streets and alleys of cities, for apparently zombies have taken over most of the world. A handful of “undefined normal” fellows and gals are frequently clinging tenaciously to a small chunk of ground, often in a wooded region away from the urban madness, where they gallantly kill the rampaging hordes by beheading them or driving spears through their skulls, or by the sweep of a countless number of assault rifles – which at times can get a bit disgusting and which makes no sense whatsoever because you can’t kill something that supposedly is already dead. Anyway, the entire mess will eventually be cleaned up after the required amount of gross carnage has been enacted.

I looked over to see a man, fairly young, engaged on an old piano outside of the music shop in town.

I don’t know the man’s story but I am pretty sure it doesn’t include a house at this time and he had the look of someone who is living on the street, but his fingers “spoke” of a different time and years of lessons.

The moment was truly overwhelming. The pages of the book were telling a story of people who had to overcome great obstacles in their lives due to tremendous tragedy…in front of me was someone who was obviously facing his own challenges and yet in

Doesn’t everyone like a “pleasant” surprise? I know I sure do. To awake to a fresh cup of coffee and a breakfast that I didn’t have to prepare; reaching into a pocket and finding cash that I didn’t know was there; or having a wait person deliver a “free dessert” to the table at the end of the meal. All these are pleasant surprises to me.

I firmly believe that God likes to give us pleasant surprises. It reminds us of his goodness and his love for his children.

Sometimes those surprises come through the actions of others.

Local firefighters collect more than $11,500 during annual ‘Fill the Boot’ effort

to support MDA’s vital research programs and the Association’s 200 medical clinics nationwide. They stood in Cole Street intersections to collect donations from passing motorists.

“We deeply appreciate the work firefighters in Enumclaw do for MDA,” said Executive Director Shelli Kind. “It does make a difference to all the people and families here who are living with muscle disease. They see these American heroes going out to support them, and it tells them they have strong partners standing by their side.”

Firefighters took to the streets of Enumclaw to “Fill the Boot” for the Muscular Dystrophy Association recently and raised more than $11,566 to help find treatments and cures for neuromuscular disease.

Yet, let’s not overanalyze the whole thing. After all, however gross the subject matter and whatever its unconscious ramifications, the main purpose of vampires and zombies is simply to scare the living hell out of us and that won’t do most of us any harm.

No, actually it is an, often, overused medical term to

TIA stands for transient ischemic attack. It results from a brief lack of blood flow to a part or parts of the brain.

deficiency or a combination of the above.

Even though a TIA could be a symptom of something less scary than an impending stroke it is still a good idea to get it checked out immediately to make sure it isn’t a true TIA. That is why I see patients in my TIA clinics within 24 to 48 hours of their symptoms and often the same day when the symptoms are more concerning. Many patients do not address the symptoms right away, understandably so, because as by definition, the symptoms of a TIA are transient and completely resolve. They feel that since it resolved there is no longer a concern. This isn’t further from the truth. They also feel if they go to an emergency room they will have to wait for an extended period of time to be assessed. This is often the case as the secret to getting an urgent evaluation at an emergency room is to have the acute onset of neurological deficits that do not go away.

So then the question is where and when is the best way to evaluate symptoms of TIA? Sooner the better is the answer. However there are practical factors to consider such as is the emergency room the most appropriate place to be evaluated for a TIA. I am obviously biased.

As a stroke specialist I feel that a TIA clinic operated by a stroke neurologist can provide

an urgent and efficient workup to determine if the symptoms are truly a TIA and then determine the best course of action for proper testing and treatment at a low cost.

When patients are seen in an emergency room there is an extensive workup performed that can end up being very expensive.

In a recent government publication the cost of many common diagnoses seen at hospitals determined that the charges for an ER visit for a single TIA are from $20,000 to more than $40,000.

Even with all of this cost, the patient has still not yet seen a stroke specialist to determine the cause of the symptoms to prevent a potential stroke. The costs are some of the highest for ER visits in Pierce County averaging $42,000 per TIA visit. TIA clinics operated by a vascular neurologist can offer an option to an ER visit for patients with TIA symptoms. Patients can be seen urgently by a specialist; with a focused workup tailored to the patient’s symptoms at less than 10 percent of the cost of an ER visit.

Is this bullying or not? A few simulations worth discussing Even though adults are increasingly aware of the problem of bullying, it isn’t always easy to determine with any certainty if a particular type of behaviour should be considered as such. This is especially true if we did not witness the act. This is why it is important to be able to tell the difference between bullying and regular conflict, misunderstanding, or harmless teasing.

Generally speaking, a conflict involves two people of equal strength, and the resolution of this conflict is part of the growing up process all children go through. On the other hand, bullying involves two parties between whom there is a real or perceived power imbalance. Here are a few situations to help you understand this problem that far too many young people have to confront.

eXaMple #1 : niCknaMes Calling a peer by a nickname with the sole purpose of gently teasing that person cannot be classified as bullying. Example: calling a friend a turtle because he or she walks slowly to school. However, if a

nickname hurts or humiliates people and causes them distress, then this is considered to be direct verbal bullying. Example: calling someone a turtle as a way to publicly mock their learning difficulties. eXaMple #2 : eXClusion Refusing to play with a friend or to sit next to him or her in the cafeteria the day after an argument is not necessarily bullying, but rather a dispute between friends.

But this exclusion can be described as social bullying if it involves a group of people and becomes repetitive and hurts the victim by humiliating him or her.

Is it bullying or just an argument? For young people, it can be a fine line between the two.

It won’t be long before school starts again. Kids will be out in greater numbers on the streets and sidewalks. As parents, we want our children to enjoy their years in school and return safely home each afternoon.

Whether your child is riding a bike, walking or taking a bus, there are a few simple safety rules you should discuss before school starts.

dangers walking or biking. Children between the ages of 5 and 9 have probably not developed the skills and experience to navigate traffic safely and judge speed and distance. Before school starts, practice safe pedestrian skills with your child and provide adult supervision to and from school if possible.

Victim or witness: now’s the time to act!

Tell your child to: • Mind all traffic signals and/or the crossing guard.

• Never cross the street against a light, even if there’s not traffic coming.

• Walk your bike through intersections.

• Ride or walk with a buddy.

• Wear reflective material to be more visible to street traffic.

Taking the bus is a safe mode of transportation. However, according to the National Safety Council, about 9,000 children are injured each year in incidents involving school buses. Surprisingly, these injuries occur as children enter and exit the bus. Review these safety tips with your child: • Have a safe place to wait for the bus, away from traffic and the street.

• Stay away from the bus until it comes to a complete stop and the driver signals you to enter.

• When being dropped off, exit the bus and walk several giant steps away from the bus. Keep a safe distance between you and the bus. Also, remember that the bus driver can see

Types of bullying Bullying is not only about pushing people around or calling them names. There are in fact four principal types of bullying, and being able to identify them is a first step in the fight to eradicate this scourge.

Some victims can also feel physical symptoms such as headaches, stomach aches, nausea, fatigue, and panic attacks. Bullying can even lead to academic problems, including dropping out of school. In a few cases — and only one case is too many — the pain caused by bullying can cause the victim to consider committing suicide.

According to the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, at least one Canadian teenager out of three can tell stories about what it’s like to be a victim of bullying at school. Other Canadian studies show that bullying occurs every seven minutes in the playground and every 25 minutes in the classroom. Do these statistics shock you? Whether you’re a student, parent, or educator, you have a role to play in putting an end to bullying.

SAFETY

Be sure that your children understand the significance of traffic lights and know when they can cross a road without putting their lives in danger. Taking a walk with your children is a great way of making them more aware of, for example, how many traffic lights there are in your neighborhood or in the downtown area. This can be an amusing way of getting children to understand that they should only cross the road at intersections and where there are traffic lights or stop signs. All light signals are a good excuse to learn more about safety: the white lights at the rear of a vehicle indicate that it is reversing, flashing lights on a school bus compel vehicles to stop, a pedestrian signal is a white light in the form of a man and pedestrians should never start crossing the road when the red hand is flashing...

and someone who has trained and raced with Coach Revell for 10-plus years, I am ashamed of her treatment. Her enthusiasm and love of coaching along with her obvious qualifications and years as assistant coach should indeed have earned her the opportunity to stand at the helm. The district’s insensitive disposal of her is somehow reminiscent of another letter to the editor that I read in recent years regarding a longtime P.E. teacher and a football coach.

In an increasingly selforiented world, loyalty and dedication are fading relics of a lost value system.

Employers lament their loss but are they really the ones responsible for the shift?

Good outweighs bad at Creation As an Enumclaw resident, I would like to respond to some of the noise complaints made about the presence of Creation here.

I think that if the people of our town understood the impact of this event, they might extend some tolerance, or even compassion, for the mere four days it takes place. This is an event that encourages our youth to make strong moral choices and live lives of integrity, honor and purpose, something that our culture doesn’t readily invite or promote.

Our youth are so inundated with sexual pressures, drugs and alcohol that we should find it a privilege that Creation comes to our city for such an admirable purpose, reaching over 10,000 people.

Something else that Creation promotes is world missions. Statistics show that the number of people dying of starvation, malnutrition, disease, homelessness and unclean drinking water has decreased significantly over the last 10 years as a result of the mission work done by many of the organizations Creation supports and promotes. It is because of events such as Creation that the hearts and funds of mission work is restored and encouraged. Without these organizations, so many needs in our world would become unmet and the hands of hope destroyed.

You may be thinking, “Great! But why does Creation have to be so loud

and go on so late?” If you have children or grandchildren, you may recognize that it is difficult to purposefully communicate or relate to the younger generation. Creation is trying to set up a way of communication that is good and fun and purposeful, which quite frankly means bringing in something that some may feel is incredibly loud and obnoxious…but the youth love it and through it are introduced to music artists that are good examples for them to look up to. Imagine the energy of thousands of youth dancing and singing together in a beneficial environment, they could last all night! However, Creation has worked really hard to respect the quiet hours established in our city. But also recognize that the event is only four days.

It is difficult to pack all the music groups, speakers and activities into such a short time.

Please take a few minutes to consider all the good that comes from this event, including the increased revenue that 10,000 people bring to our city in just four short days. Even if it only changes one life, turns one kid from suicide, turns one girl from a life of promiscuity, encourages one person to sponsor world missions or turns one parent from divorce, isn’t it worth the inconvenience of four loud, late nights? As an attendee of the event, I can attest to the fact that Creation has accomplished far more than changing one life, but hundreds, potentially thousands of lives leave this event encouraged and strengthened to change their lives for the good.

BD voters seek a new direction The citizens of Black Diamond voted by over 66 percent for a new city mayor, Dave Gordon, in the primary election.

This huge majority clearly shows that the citizens of Black Diamond are not happy with the direction the incumbent mayor has taken this town.

With fewer than 19 percent of the vote the incumbent lost for several reasons: 1. She is a strong supporter of the massive YarrowBay development project. The vast majority of the Black Diamond’s citizens oppose YarrowBay and want a less

disruptive future.

2. Her attempts to mislead the voters on the financial and legal issues around the development did not fool the people.

3. Mayor Olness ignored the will of the people, demonstrated in 2011 when we elected a new city council by over 70 percent of the vote. The YarrowBay development was the issue then and it is the issue now. The citizens of Black Diamond have sent a clear message that they meant what they said in 2011 and they are going to continue to take back the city.

The upcoming general election campaign promises to be a nasty affair. Mayor Olness will use lies, distortions and campaign tricks to distort the positions of Dave Gordon. Already she is posting ridiculous claims about Dave Gordon’s intentions on her Facebook page.

Mayor Olness’ mudslinging is doomed to fail. The citizens of Black Diamond are not stupid, even though Mayor Olness thinks they are, and when they talk to Dave Gordon they find a highly approachable, honest man with well thoughtout goals for this city.

The citizens of Black Diamond have spoken and we want a new direction for this city.

citizens are at work, but the room is over capacity with firefighters and a few union reps from elsewhere.

No discussion whatsoever as to why the big increase. Zero. Not at any previous commissioners’ meetings has the topic been discussed with any detail.

In my opinion quickly installing a new commissioner (Larry Jensen) that would agree to raising taxes was important because the deadline for placing a higher tax increase on the November ballot was days away.

I will not vote for a fire district tax increase because I’ve experienced with my own eyes and ears, a total disrespect for the taxpayers in this district by the management of Fire District 28.

With very few exceptions

Let’s Go Golfing!

Aug. 24th, 2013

Golf between 7AM-3PM Duck Race at 5PM Boise Creek at the Golf Course It's not your typical golf tournament! Simply go golfing on August 24th at the Enumclaw Golf Course and purchase a Duck Race score card for an additional $15 on-top of your regular green fees. The special card allows eligibility for games and prizes.

Need to make the best of Creation Creation might not return to Enumclaw next year? What a shame if that happens!

What better way could a family, young adults and teens spend a weekend than in beautiful Enumclaw under sunny (or drizzly) skies celebrating with music, performances and games?

I live one mile from the fairgrounds so have minor inconveniences, but they’re nothing I can’t handle for one weekend. I see most households across the street profiting by renting parking and camping space.

Some even make improvements on their homes each year.

I say, if you think you’ve been handed a lemon, make lemonade!

Sharon Sawhill Enumclaw

No respect shown for taxpayers The monthly Fire District 28 commissioners’ meeting (Aug. 5) was held at the convenient time of 10 a.m. Most taxpaying

all the firefighters have remained extremely professional and remain the best in the business.

Superintendent’s Message How many days of the week can be extraordinary?

Last August, I spoke of Jim Collins’ book Good to Great. This past spring and summer I have spent a great deal of time with his new book Great by Choice. In this book, he shares a vast amount of research where he and his team studied companies that have weathered the economic down-turn of the past 5-7 years. They looked closely at what strategies were used to outperform other businesses during this intense time period.

One concept in his book that I particularly enjoyed was around the word “luck.” Businesses (and people) have their share of both good and bad luck. The businesses that Collins studied had relatively the same amount of each. The key that distinguished one business from another was their “return on luck.” Did they get a “great return on good luck or a poor one?”

Did they get a “great return on bad luck or a poor one?”

The essence of “managing luck” involves four things: (1) cultivating the ability to zoom out to recognize luck when it happens, (2) developing the wisdom to see when, and when not, to let luck disrupt your plans, (3) being sufficiently well-prepared to endure an inevitable spate of bad luck, and (4) creating a positive return on luck— both good luck and bad— when it comes. Luck is not a strategy, but getting a positive return on luck is.

For the past 5-6 years, our economy has provided the opportunity to endure a bit of bad luck when it comes to K-12 school budgets for school districts in our state. During that time, our school district had to make reductions to personnel and programs. We also attempted to make key decisions to propel our school district forward when the funding changed. During this time we were still able to expand the arts, STEM and instructional technology. We kept true to our instructional focus of our CORE work of Professional Learning Communities, Five Dimensions of Teaching and Learning and the shift to Common Core State Standards. We kept our budget stable during this time while also not allowing the salaries of our employees to be reduced in our system, even though they were reduced at the state level. We hope we “endured this inevitable spate of bad luck.”

On June 30th, Governor Inslee signed the two-year biennium budget. This budget made a down payment to K-12 education as a result of the McCleary lawsuit that states that K-12 education is not fully funded. This was a very late budget for us to receive (the latest that I have experienced since becoming an administrator). Our Human Resources Department and Business Office have worked very hard within a short timeline to prepare our budget. We feel that this budget was a bit of “good luck” for our system. After five years, we will again be offering a full-day kindergarten for all students! We believe this will not just be a “good” return on luck, but a “GREAT” return on luck!! We have also had the ability to carefully expand a few programs that had been reduced in recent years.

We have had great luck in hiring some amazing new teachers and staff members in our district.

Please be sure to check out biographies on each of them on our website! Our staff is so very excited to welcome the return of our students on September 3! It’s going to be an extraordinary year!

“It never failed to amaze me how the most ordinary day could be catapulted into the extraordinary in the blink of an eye.”

In Partnership with YOU!
