Covington pool hits swimming milestone

Covington Aquatic Center staff celebrated a major milestone Nov. 15 when the 100,000th in-water customer of 2013 came through the doors. Linda Lee of Covington was the patron who hit the lucky number and was surprised with a free oneyear aqua family membership for the Covington Aquatic Center. Attendance has been a particular focus for pool staff for more than a year. A new marketing plan was implemented, a restructured fee schedule was put into place last year which increased some fees and reduced others which in conjunction with a significant increase in patrons created a considerable bump in attendance, according to information provided by Karla Slate, the city’s communications and marketing manager. In fact, the staff set a goal of 93,000 in-water visits for this year but surpassed that goal in October. If the current rate continues, the attendance will be close to 110,000 program participants by the end of the year. This would constitute an increase of 25 per-

A group of moms from Maple Valley have formed Maple Valley Family Circle to continue Toddler Time and Family Movie Night at the Greater Maple Valley Community Center on a short term basis while they search for a long term solution. The moms — Farinaz Barker, Christie Cummings, Tonia Mosieur, Laura Skobin and Joy Stramer — came together after the Community Center announced in early October that at the end of the month the Children’s and Family programs at the center would be discontinued due to budget cuts. “We didn’t even plan it (to become a group), we just came together and kept going,” Mosieur said. Mark Pursely, executive director of the community center, explained in an interview with The Reporter in October that more than 70 percent of the Community Center’s annual budget comes from various grant funding sources. The rest comes from program fees, fundraising, facility rentals, program sponsorships

McDonough never stops raising money for a cure BY KRIS HILL khill@maplevalleyreporter.com

Just because the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s 3 Day Walk for the Cure in Seattle has come and gone, that doesn’t mean Tina McDonough quits working to raise money to find a cure for breast cancer. McDonough, along with her husband Cory, own One.7, Inc., an environmental equipment and

street maintenance dealership in Ravensdale. This year marks the fourth the McDonoughs have pinked out one of the machines One.7 offers — this year a Vactor 2100 combination sewer cleaner — and sold it to donate a portion of the proceeds to the Komen Foundation. A truck came to pick it up from the One.7 shop Nov. 13. The Vactor 2100 was covered

She said it was the first time they made a hose in that color. “When Tina called to ask if Vactor Manufacturing would support One.7, Inc’s, plan to (detail) a used Vactor truck for the Susan G.

Toymaker bounces back after thumb injury BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com

This year Vern Heinle did not make as many wooden toys for the Forgotten Children’s Fund as he hoped. Heinle was working in his shop behind his home in September when his left thumb was caught for a moment in the table saw

blade. The injury kept him out of his workshop for six weeks after it was surgically repaired. “It was a sad day,” said Heinle, who has spent 40 years as a carpenter. “I had high hopes of doing more toys this year.” A year ago, Heinle made 300 cars, planes, tanks and trucks out of wood. This

year he cut back his output to 200 cars. “Last year was a good year,” Heinle, 80, said. “Everything went well. I’ll have to push harder next year.” This is the sixth year he is building toys to give to needy children at Christmas. Heinle, who lives in Kent, will donate the handmade wooden toys

to Seattle-based Forgotten Children’s Fund this year. He often enlists the help of his grandsons — two of whom graduated from Kentlake High in June while another graduated a few years ago Kentwood — in the process or delivery of the toys. Heinle first became involved with the holiday drive when Jim Pelletier, the former manager of the Shari’s on 132nd Avenue Southeast and Southeast Kent-Kangley Road, asked him. Pelletier, who moved from Covington to Enumclaw in 2012, is now the manager of the Shari’s on Russell Road in Kent so now Heinle drops off his toys there. While in his workshop Nov. 14, Heinle was working on the last batch of toy cars, listening to country music though he also enjoys listening to Elvis Presley’s renditions of gospel music. “Just cars (this year) because they’re easy to make, they’re fast,” Heinle said. “Most of the kids in the 4, 5 and 6 year old range, they don’t get much. I do what I can do.” His thumb has a long white scar on it, but, the carnage suffered in September is undetectable. Heinle said it works well thanks to the fantastic work the surgeon did to repair the

damage. Next year he will try to make more toys. In the meantime he is trying to encourage others to contribute handmade items while also teaching the younger generations of his family about what it means to help others. “I’ve taught my children how much joy there is in giving,” he said. “Now I’m trying to teach my grandsons and granddaughters and they seem to be receptive.” His wife, Caroline, pointed out that their youngest grandchildren who are 9 and 10, understand it is important to be generous. She believes today’s generation of children grasp what it means to give back to those less fortunate. “We hope to finish, that will be my grandsons and some of my sons and I, the weekend after Thanksgiving,” Heinle said. “On (Dec. 14) my grandsons and I will give out little toy cars to kids 10 years old and under.” That day he’ll drop off the toys at the Shari’s on Russell Road in Kent. With his white beard and a red hat, Heinle may be mistaken for Santa Claus. Toys will be handed out from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Heinle is particularly grateful to those who do-

nated cash or materials to his effort this year, specifically to Jennifer Tingey, Mathew Croft, Henry Kosteleky, Bryan Heinle and Terry Sullivan. He encourages anyone who wants to support the Forgotten Children’s fund — a nonprofit which has been doing this since 1975, when a letter to Santa landed in a restaurant, where a group of people decided to ensure that needy children and their families would not go without at Christmas — to drop off donations at any Shari’s location in western Washington. As Heinle gets older, he would like to see other artisans help out. “To all the woodworkers and craftspeople, the opportunity this time of year to make toys,” Heinle said. “You will get a lot of joy out of it because they’re going to people who have a need. Next year I plan to do more, but, again, I don’t know. There are a lot of older people over the age of 65 and retired who might have the time on their hands. Building toys is rewarding.”

Covington Rotary partners with Grocery Outlet Maple Valley residents Greg and Jessi Powell, own Kent location, help Backpack Buddies program

BY KRIS HILL

khill@covingtonreporter.com

DANCERS COLLECT CANS FOR FOOD BANK Dancers and their families from Ensemble Ballet Theatre participated in a food drive to benefit the Maple Valley Food Bank on Nov. 16 at the Maple Valley QFC. Over the course of the afternoon the dancers were able to collect six grocery baskets full of donations as well as $130 in cash. Ensemble Ballet Theatre is a local nonprofit Ballet company. Dancers perform in two major productions per year, The Nutcracker and a spring production. They also perform at the Maple Valley Farmer’s Market, Leavenworth, local schools and Disneyland.

As Covington Rotary members work to help more hungry children in the community they are cementing more partnerships. During the summer Jo Blyth, a member of the Covington Rotary Club, connected with Greg and Jessi Powell, the owners of Grocery Outlet in Kent. The Powells live in Maple Valley. In October Blyth began shopping for items at the Kent Grocery Outlet for its Backpack Buddies program, which provides packs full of food on Fridays to students in need at Covington, Jenkins Creek, Cedar Valley, Crestwood and Grass Lake. On Mondays the children bring the empty packs back to school. “It’s pretty unique, truthfully,” Greg Powell said. “Jo, she’s a great customer of ours. In speaking with her throughout the months, she had talked about this program. We’ve supported their auction in the past. So, we just began to build

a relationship. Late this summer she spoke to me specifically about how we could help, what they currently do and what retailers they utilize.” In an email in September, rotarian Carol Judd said the club now feeds 250 children in Covington area elementary schools, so partnerships such as the one with the Powells are critical. And stretching the dollars raised at the club’s annual auction is vital as well, which is another benefit of the connection with Grocery Outlet. Powell described Blyth as a costconscious shopper. During the first shopping trip in October, Powell said, Blyth and another woman who is the coupon clipping expert, purchased nearly $3,000 worth of groceries for about $1,700. “It goes for a great cause,” Powell said. “They were able to put additional items in the backpacks because of our pricing. It also allows them to bring more youth on into the program. Then they didn’t have good trans-

portation to get the product to the church where they store it so I deliver it two days in a row. That’s just part of the thing that makes us unique, being independently owned and operated it gives us that personal touch.” Powell and his wife bought the Kent Grocery Outlet location in July 2011 when it relocated to a shopping center of 240th and 104th. Having come from a large retail company prior to purchasing a Grocery Outlet franchise, Powell said, one of the things he likes about this business model is the approach the company has in terms of community service. “It’s just culturally different,” Powell said. “This organization is so family oriented and driven to help each community that we serve. It makes my wife and I to feel very good to be part of communities.” Powell said the partnership does not stop with the shopping at Grocery Outlet. After attending a Rotary meeting the Powells

CITY COUNCIL RECRUITING ALTERNATE PLANNING COMMISSIONERS The Alternate Planning Commissioner attends meetings so that he/she will be prepared to fill an unanticipated vacancy. The Planning Commission meets from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. the first and third Wednesdays of each month, with occasional special meetings and workshops. Applicants must be residents of, or own property in, the city of Maple Valley. Persons should have an

donated $500 cash to the cause as another way to show their support for the program. This all began when past president Kevin Holland came up with the idea and pitched it to the club. He first heard about a program in Texas like this and thought it would work well here. Now different groups go to the Storehouse during the week and fill backpacks. Girl Scout troops, church members, Rotarians, teachers, to name a few. And the packs are filled with applesauce, boxed juices, peanut butter cracker sandwiches, and other items. It is important the backpacks are filled with items that are easy to open, prepare and eat since children as young as 6 years old take them home. Children who take home backpacks on Fridays may not otherwise have food at home and a vicious cycle continues. When students are hungry, they struggle in school, but if they have food throughout the weekend and then eat at school

during the week those issues seem to dissipate. In the beginning, the rotary club worked with the Maple Valley Food Bank as well as The Storehouse, which is supported by a consortium of churches in the area. Both had facilities where they could pack and the staff at both food banks knew how to shop to get the most bang for Rotary’s buck. With the addition of Grass Lake this year, the need is larger and the ability to stretch the money raised is critical, which is why the partnership with the Powells is so important. “Their dollar stretched so much further which all goes to the kids,” Powell said. “And Jessi and I’s personal donation, as well, and we have full intention to continue that, as well, to show our personal commitment. We’re very energized and excited to continue to build our relationship with them, stay in communication and go to as many Rotary meetings as we can possibly go to, help in any way.”

interest in environmental affairs, planning, land use, and residential and commercial development as evidenced by training, experience, or actions. The term of office for a Planning Commissioner position is four years and for an Alternate Planning Commissioner it is two years. The application deadline is 5 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 10.

ALL ABOUT CONSTIPATION There seems to be plenty of interest around the topic of regularity, at least according to yogurt commercials on TV. The truth is, frequency of bowel movements is a personal issue in more ways than the obvious. Even though some people “go” three times a day, it’s also normal to have a bowel movement once every few days. Once-a-day bowel movements are common, and there’s nothing wrong if the amount of movements varies somewhat from person to person. What is a problem is if there is no bowel movement after two weeks or if constipation comes on suddenly in a person who usually has regular movements. These instances warrant a timely trip to the doctor’s office. Whether bright red, maroon, or black, blood in the stool is always a reason to call your healthcare provider. You can prevent constipation by consuming lots of highfiber foods, including fruits, vegetables, beans, and wholegrain cereals and breads. It’s also important to drink plenty of water. If you’re not used to eating as much fiber, add it to your diet gradually to help reduce related gas and bloating. Regular exercise, such as walking, biking or swimming, can help stimulate intestinal function. To schedule an appointment at Southlake Clinic, please call (253) 395-1972. Our Covington clinic is located at 27005 168th Place SE. Our primary care providers are supported by a network of multispecialty physicians and services.

O D I D Y O U K N O W ? : Kentwood High School’s Munch Madness has raised tens of thousands of pounds of food since it began in 2008, when more than 28,000 were brought in by the school community. In 2012, Kentwood students, staff and parents donated more than 55,000 pounds to area food banks.

Students going beyond school

Staff Writer Katherine Smith

So it hasn’t been all that terribly long since I was in high school myself, but in the last year and a half or so that I’ve been writing about schools in Maple Valley and Covington I’ve definitely noticed a shift. This week as I was writing about the food drives at Kent high schools I had a ‘kids these days’ moment. But not of the traditionally thought or expressed exasperated eye-rolling ‘kids these days, back in my day we knew better/ acted better’ variety. More like, ‘wow, kids these days, we didn’t used to do cool things like this.’ In the time I’ve spent in schools and the students I’ve talked to and the things I’ve seen them do, they’re just so much more aware. By that I mean that the awareness of helping people and actively looking for ways to make a difference. When I was in high school there was the annual food drive, but that’s the thing that stands out to me the most. Raising money to fight various types of cancer seems to be the dominant theme now. I’ve lost count of all the fundraisers I’ve heard about in the last year and a half. Everything from raising money for specific students and staff members who were diagnosed with cancer — last year the Kentwood girls swim team collected money and made a blanket for a Tahoma swimmer who had just been diagnosed and last spring Kentlake held a silent auction to raise money for one of the school’s administrative assistants who found out she had cancer — to raising money

Komen Foundation or Maple Valley-based Wings of Karen or the American Cancer Society through established third party events or students creating their own like turning a football or soccer game into a fundraiser and having a show of support by pinking out a stadium. And there are other topics students have undertaken to raise awareness about. Students tackled a tough topic with Domestic Violence Awareness Week at Kentlake and the environment through Tahoma students who are involved with the Watershed Report come to mind. It’s neat to see so many students driven to help others and to make that difference. To take the time to learn. Personally and selfishly for me it’s cool to see all these things happen and I love getting to

write about them. I’m a big fan of sharing the things we hear about here in The Reporter office. So often it seems like students get a bad rap and they all get lumped together with their peers who make bad decisions. I remember how it felt to have that happen to me, and while, yes, that is small potatoes in the big scheme of things, it mattered to me then, and it bothered me. And a belief that people’s stories matter is one key part of why I do what I do. Students are getting outside themselves and their high school worlds. They’re interacting with the community and the region and giving of their time and talents and passions. And that’s a pretty cool thing to see.

Council held a public hearing on the proposed establishment of a community facilities district that will allow the construction of eight infrastructure projects for road improvements, water and sewer facilities. These infrastructure improvements will be built and paid for by YarrowBay but will benefit all of the current residents. There will be no cost or risk to the city. The costs of the projects will be borne in the cost of new homes in the new developments. One project to be built and paid for by YarrowBay — only if the council passes the CFD — is a satellite fire station, including emergency response vehicles, located in the main part of the city, perhaps in the Lawson Street area. The station would be staffed 24 hours, seven days a week. This would give the central part of Black Diamond much needed fire protection and life saving services. The Lake Sawyer area has excellent response from Fire Station 98 on Lake Sawyer Road. I live near this station. My father-in-law had a heart attack while visiting our home. I called 911 and we had emergency personnel, vehicles

and fire trucks in our drive way in 2 minutes. He received the fast, excellent response that all residents of Black Diamond deserve. Mayor-elect Gordon is opposed to the CFD as it taxes residents in the new developments differently but that is not uncommon. The city has multiple school districts and three different utility districts all taxing us differently. The different valuation of homes means a different amount of taxes are paid by current residents. The safety of our citizens should be the priority. The city council has the resolution to accept or reject the CFD formation on the Nov. 21 agenda and must act to either approve or deny the CFD application by Dec. 8. They have a chance to give equal protection to all areas of Black Diamond by approving the CFD.

Kent-Kangley Road, back toward Highway 169, my toe caught on a rise in the sidewalk and I stumbled for several feet before finally hitting the concrete. The first points of contact were my face and my left hand. I broke my glasses and as I found out later my nose. There was a lot of blood on my face, my hand and the ground. I was able to sit up and call my wife, Linda, on my cell phone. People coming from the Safeway parking lot shouted offers to call 911 but I told them that help was on the way. I looked around me at the three people who had stopped their cars to help. One gentleman brought me cloth towels to stop the bleeding on my head and hand. A lady brought paper napkins to wipe the blood from my face and

eyes. She then spotted a MultiCare Medical Clinic in the Town Square Shopping Center on the north side of Kent-Kangley. She held my arm and guided me across the street to get medical attention. A second gentleman stopped traffic so that we could cross safely. I thanked her again and again as we walked and she said something like “this is what people do to help others.” When Linda and I left the medical clinic and headed to the emergency room in Covington, all the people that had helped me were gone. I don’t know their names and I probably wouldn’t recognize them if I saw them again BUT I will never forget their kindness and their assistance in a time of need.

All it takes is for the city council to stop playing politics and put the safety of the residents — 2,500 of us — in the original part of the city first. The process can start immediately — all it takes is for the city council to pass the CFD that YarrowBay has asked for that applies only to their property. Please do not keep us at risk any longer.

City needs other fire station The City Council of Black Diamond has an opportunity to have a desperately needed fire station in the older part of the city paid for by YarrowBay. Why is this station desperately needed, you ask.

Substandard means the time for a fire apparatus to arrive is eight minutes or more. In eight minutes your house would

New Sponsorship Opportunity The Southeast Regional Shuttle program assists over 600 individuals in the Greater Maple Valley, Covington and Black Diamond areas each year. These individuals are considered transportation dependent and struggling to remain independent within the rural communities they love. The SRS has been offering rides to medical appointments, physical therapy, grocery stores, hair appointments, jobs and lunch dates since the fall of 2011 for only 50 cents each way. Unfortunately our two year grant cycle was not fully funded for the 2013-2015 biennium, so we have decided to offer the local business community the opportunity to step up and support this much needed and valued program. Beginning November 1, 2013 the SRS Transportation program is offering the vehicle windows as ad space for your business. We have two mini buses that are on the road four and five days a week covering over 150 square miles of Southeast King County. What a great way to have your business name presented to the community and to support such an important human service program. Everyone wins here! Please contact the Greater Maple Valley Community Center or Southeast Regional Shuttle for more information. 425-413-7433 or visit our website: www.maplevalleycc.org/srs 927366

Black Diamond student assists in research at WWU From Alaska to Southern California, something is killing the West Coast’s sea stars — the ubiquitous, child-friendly favorite of tide-pool explorers everywhere — and nobody knows why. Yet. Benjamin Miner, as associate professor of biology at Western Washington University, has received, along with his colleague Ian Hewson, a geneticist at Cornell University, a one-year research grant from the National Science Foundation to begin to explore the potential reasons for the region’s dramatic loss of sea stars due to what is known as Sea Star Wasting Disease. Undergraduate biology student Warren Kohl from Black Diamond will be working alongside Minder during the project. “Getting a chance to work on research like this as an undergrad is just a phenomenal opportunity,” Kohl said. Miner said his part of the research involves going into the field, surveying 30 to 40 sites throughout Washington state in search of samples to bring back to his lab to collect samples to send to Hewson. Sea Star Wasting Disease can sweep into an area and within a week or two, turn healthy colonies of dozens of sea stars into dead zones where the only thing left are mats of bacterial ooze — the remains of the stars after the

disease has run its course. “You’ll start to see lesions ‚ white, open sores on the sea stars. Then they’ll begin losing their legs, and before too long they have been reduced to this white mat of goo,” Miner said. Miner said the disease seems to affect five or six of the 20 or so local varieties of sea star, although varieties that live in deeper water or are rarer may also be affected. Miner and Hewson will soon begin to seek answers to some of the basic questions about this epidemic. First and foremost, what is causing it? There is almost no published research on this topic, so they will be starting almost from scratch. Is it one disease or a so-called perfect storm combination of illnesses? Can sick sea stars infect others by touch, or is it spread through the water column? Can it be passed to other sea stars of different species? “We don’t have any of these answers yet, but hopefully within a year, we will,”Miner said. Miner will be sampling both intertidal areas on foot and near-shore sites by diving. The sites are both in the Pacific Ocean and inside the Salish Sea, and he will compare the populations he finds there with historical records. Given the prevalence of the disease, if there are no sea stars in areas historically known to have robust popula-

if we can come up with a plan or a number as to how much it would take to run the programs again. So then that’s what we’ve been doing at this point is meeting and coming up with how much we think the staffing would cost and supplies.” The women all said that they stepped up to fight for the programs and decided to get involved because they believe they are vital programs of huge benefit to the community. “Having somewhere where so many of their gross motor, fine motor, pretend play, linguistic needs are met, in an indoor, enclosed, warm place is amazing,” Skobin said of the importance of Toddler Time. The women also spoke about what Toddler Time has meant to them and how it helped them connect, make friends, and how the group also offers support to the moms, and to all the different caregivers, who come. “It’s not just for toddlers or kids, but this is how I met friends,” Cummings said. Barker added that a big reason she wanted to get involved was because of what the programs mean to her own children. “That, I think is one of the main reasons we want to continue for now, is because we didn’t want to tell our own kids that it was done,” Barker said. “That was the hardest thing.” Barker said after the initial tension between them and the Community Center staff, the working relationship between them has improved.

“I would like to say personally, I can’t speak for everyone, since we’ve assumed this volunteer role, we’ve had a lot of great reception from the employees at the Community Center,” Skobin said. “They’ve been helpful, accommodating, and I really do feel that they’ve kept their word and done their part to provide the facilities and be helpful to us in that way. It’s nice that we’ve reached a point of good communication and it feels like collaboration.” Skobin said she hopes they can even reach new families who have never been involved at the Community Center before and that families continuing to come to the programs will be a vital part of the groups’ success going forward. “That people believe in it enough to keep coming even though the faces have changed a bit, means a lot,” Skobin said. “We can show up every Tuesday and Thursday and let our four kids play together, but the fact that the community still wants it really makes it worth while.”

The next Family Movie Nightis scheduled for Dec. 13 at the Greater Maple Valley Community Center where “Despicable Me 2” will be shown. The cost is $5 per person.

tions, he can assume that the disease has swept through the area already. Other areas, he said, have seemed to remain untouched, with normal, healthy sea star populations. What about these areas is different from the areas that have been affected? “It’s a fascinating question, and an important one,” Miner said. “Sea stars are ravenous eaters of shellfish like mussels. If there is no predation of mussels, their populations will explode, crowding out other species and dropping biodiversity. Mussels can take over an ecosystem, and sea stars are the check-and-balance that prevents that.” Moreover, what worries Miner even more about the sudden onset of this disease is that it hasn’t done what sicknesses usually do: appear in one place then leapfrog its way into new areas. Sea Star Wasting Disease has arrived along virtually the entire North American West Coast almost simultaneously. “The geographic scale of this disease outbreak is especially alarming and, frankly, almost unheard of,” Miner said. For more information on the grant or his Sea Star Wasting Disease research, contact Ben Miner at (360) 650-3640 or Benjamin.miner@wwu.edu.

When the work is complete in early 2014, according to information provided in September by Scott Thomas, the city’s parks and recreation director, it will only increase the Aquatic Center’s ability to serve patrons, whether they are Covington residents or not. This could lead to even greater attendance and revenues. “It is going to be fabulous to be able to have birthday parties or other kinds of functions,” Thomas told the Reporter in September. “This new room is going to be associated with the plaza … so the aquatic center is really going to be able to provide a lot more service to the community than we have in the past.

That many peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s waistlines expand during the holiday season is a well-established fact. But, as a new study found, the reason why most of us overindulge at this particular time may not be so much the countless opportunities for extra munching but rather the need for extra comfort due to heightened stress. The study, which was conducted at the University of Konstanz, Germany, showed that participants who had a tendency to reach for food when stressed did not continue to do so after they were more relaxed, even though they were given equal access to the comfort foods they craved when they felt tense. Other participants had reverse reactions. They ate less or stopped eating altogether in acutely stressful situations and compensated â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or often overcompensated â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for the depriva-

tion afterwards when the tension ebbed. In either case, eating was connected to their stress experience rather than the availability of food. Stress eating, or emotional eating as it is sometimes called, is not yet fully understood by scientists. In fact, the expression â&#x20AC;&#x153;stress eatingâ&#x20AC;? itself should be a contradiction in terms. Acute stress as a short-term response supposedly blocks the desire for food due to hormone releases in the brain that suppress appetite. But when high stress levels persist, as with chronic stress, cortisol, an appetitestimulating hormone, secretes in the adrenal glands and remains elevated until the stress period ends, which may be indefinite. Some foods seem to be more effective for stress relief than others. Comfort foods, which are typically highly processed and filled with fat and sugar, are among the favorite choices

of the chronically stressed. These are also the kinds of food that one can easily snack on, often mindlessly. Overeating, of course, is not the only widespread response to stress. Because of its energy-draining and exhausting effects, both physically and mentally, stress prevents many people from exercising and often from getting enough sleep. Alcohol and drug use, not unheard of among stress sufferers, add to the likelihood of unhealthy weight gain and other body dysfunctions. So, what makes us so much more vulnerable and so inclined to succumb to our cravings during the holiday season? The fact is that this is no holiday at all for most people who find themselves burdened with many additional tasks and obligations while their everyday lives still must go on as usual. Thus, stress sources multiply. That, at least, may be one reason.

Still, whatever we do to cope with those challenges, it is important to understand that we are not helpless when it comes to controlling our impulses. For example, do you have a sweet tooth? If so, you can limit your access to your favorite treats. Do you easily forego exercising and make excuses for staying sedentary? You can draw up a fitness plan and join in with likeminded people who can hold you to it. Are you chronically sleep-deprived? You can make a point of increasing your sleep time. The list can go on and on. It would be naĂŻve to think that all this can be accomplished with a quick resolution. Instead, I recommend to start with one thing, something concrete you can take on right now. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter what exactly you choose to do. Read a book, go for a walk, meditate, whatever. Stay with it, and that gift might just keep on giving.

KENTWOOD VOLLEYBALL FIFTH IN STATE Kentwood brought home the fifth place trophy at the 4A state volleyball tournament Nov. 15-16 at St. Martin’s University. During the course of the tournament Kentwood lost just one match, a 3-0 defeat in the quarterfinal at the hands of Curtis, which made it to the championship contest. Kentwood beat Bothell 3-1 (25-22, 25-13, 21-25, 25-18) in the opening round when the Conquerors played in one of three 8 a.m. matches that kicked off the tournament. After the loss to Curtis, Kentwood bounced back the second day with a 3-1 victory over Central Valley then held off Camas in a 3-2 victory, winning 16-14 in the fifth set to claim the fifth place trophy. The Conks did not play in the state tournament a year ago, which snapped an eight-year appearance streak which included a secondplace finish in 2011.

Thankful for garden chores the Northwest gets to skip cover your rose plants with ugly Styrofoam cones or hay piles to protect them from the snow as they do in the North. Be thankful you don’t have to mow and trim the lawn. Lawn rangers have permission to mow, trim and edge the lawn any time of the year that the ground is not frozen or so wet that it feels mucky. We have just enough cold weather to keep most lawns dormant until April so homeowners get a break from mowing – without a winter of snowing. In Chicago they just change lawn mowers for snow blowers. At least umbrellas are easier to operate. Be thankful you don’t have to prune your fruit Marianne Binetti

The Compleat Home Gardener

Time for the annual Thanksgiving column so that gardeners in Western Washington can once again be grateful for our mild climate, abundant rainfall and beautiful gardens. This year you’ll also get to be thankful for the garden chores you don’t have to do this week: Be thankful you don’t have to go outside and prune your roses. Roses can be pruned back anytime from February until March so don’t fret if you haven’t yet gotten snippy with them. While you’re thinking of roses, be thankful you don’t have to battle June bugs like they do in the South or

trees. Applies trees, plum trees and cherries all produce fruit without annual pruning. If you want to prune to shape the tree or to increase fruit production than go ahead. We have a choice about pruning in our state. In Hawaii and Florida they must hack back the explosion of plant growth all year long as the plants never go dormant. Plus in the tropics you must watch out for giant reptiles with sharp teeth and poisonous fangs. At least our slugs are easy to stomp. Be thankful we can enjoy locally grown Christmas trees and deck the halls with local boughs of holly and local swags of cedar. In warmer climates the Christmas trees sit on paved lots, dropping

What’s blooming at Lake Wilderness Arboretum Now that the November rains are here, all the leaves have fallen from your trees. Instead of throwing it into the yard waste bin, why not start a compost pile? Composting is a way of creating an environment for organic waste to decompose quickly into a rich, natural additive that can nourish the soil, helping plants to grow disease and pest free, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers and lowering our carbon footprint. The key to a fully functioning compost pile is to use one simple technique for combining three basic ingredients: layer an

needles as they gasp in the heat. Fake tinsel trees stand in for our native evergreens but without the natural fragrance of pine and cedar. Communities in California pay to bring in piles of snow so local kids have a chance to wear mittens. Pity the poor Santa dressed in fur from head to foot. In our climate a fallen branch from a fir tree can be poked into an empty pot and displayed outdoors for months – needles still intact. Be thankful we have real mountains. In Western Washington our dramatic snow-capped mountains make the perfect backdrop for any photo – I am so embarrassed for those poor folk in other parts of the world that call their modest green hills “mountains.”

Only in Switzerland did the local mountain range earn my respect – but they can’t grow rhododendrons, Japanese maples and fuchsias in Switzerland the way we can. Be thankful you are reading a local newspaper. Weekly newspapers and daily papers printed by local publishers have been struggling for years to adjust as the internet took over. Finally it seems that citizens respect the credibility of the printed word when it is written by a local journalist – paid to be subjective and report on local news instead of depending on a internet news site – often with writers paid to create publicity for attentionseeking celebrities. The world and the media is changing all around us – but this is the week to be

thankful for those changes as well. Just like a garden, change challenges us to keep growing.

equal amount browns - dead leaves, branches and twigs – on top of greens - grass clippings, vegetable waste, fruit scraps and coffee grounds. Add water abundantly to alternate layers of browns and greens, so the carbon and nitrogen they contain can break it all down into its essential elements. Once your pile starts decomposing to create that rich organic substance known as humus, you’re composting! Now, you can replace the layering process with burying materials in the center and incorporating them when you water and turn the pile. This spring, spread your compost on the lawn, garden patch, flower beds and container plants, too.
