Sound Transit hosts a series of neighborhood drop-in sessions this week through April 17 to give the public a chance to hear about alternatives for extending light rail service from SeaTac to Federal Way. There are three April sessions scheduled in Kent: • Tuesday, April 8, noon-2 p.m., The Market Place Plaza, 2311 Pacific Highway S. • Thursday, April 10, noon-2 p.m., Lowe’s, 24050 Pacific Highway S. • Thursday, April 17, noon-2 p.m., Lowe’s, 24050 Pacific Highway S. A session also is scheduled for Wednesday, March 26, from 5 to 7 p.m., at Highline Community College, 2400 S. 240th St., Des Moines.

The agency has identified several alignment, station and grade alternatives for extending light rail from the future Angle Lake Station at South 200th Street, which opens in 2016, to the Federal Way Transit Center near South 320th Street, a distance of about 7.6 miles.

Forecasted voter-approved funding is sufficient to cover the extension of service to the Kent-Des Moines area by 2023, with extensions farther southward subject to identifying additional funding sources. Sound Transit will prepare a Draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) to evaluate potential environmental impacts and benefits of the identified alternatives.

The DEIS is expected to be available for public and agency review later this year.

Citizens are encouraged to stop by the meetings, where Sound Transit staff will be available to share the agency’s plans for extending light rail farther south.

COMMISSION SEEKS APPLICANTS FOR SERVICE PROVIDER FUNDING The city of Kent Human Services Commission has announced the release of the 2015/2016 Request for Proposals for human services.

As a member of the Human Service Funders Collaborative, Kent is a participant in a joint application process with 15 other King County cities.

Starting March 19, human services providers will be able to submit one application to any of the 16 cities online at Share1app.culturegrants. org, a complete grant management website that allows for common reporting, contract management and data collection.

Kent’s Human Services Commission will review applications during May and June and present funding recommendations to Mayor Suzette Cooke in early July.

Commissioners consider community needs, how the program meets the funding priorities set in Building a Health Community: City of Kent Human Services Master Plan and efficient, effective use of Kent funds.

www.kentreporter.com [ GRCC from page 1 ] “These are extraordinary careers that have built America,” said Joshua Clearman, dean of Technology and Trades Divisions and Workforce Education at Green River.

The project has had a troubled history that started more than 20 years ago, when thenpresident Karen McGavin elected to replace the older building. Funding restrictions and shifting educational priorities toward four-year degrees led the college in other directions.

The school shelved the project indefinitely during the economic collapse of 2008, and it was only in the last two years that the school could bring the project out of mothball status to the tune of $2 million.

Much of that money was tied up in redesigning plans and schematics that were many years old at the time.

Producing the plans for the building has taken some time. A team of architects had to review the original plans for changes, then advisors and teachers had to draft a fresh set of plans, which were turned over

again to architects for code checks. Much of the money went to finishing the incomplete design document, said GRCC capital projects director Sam Ball.

The college finalized

the design process and put it out to builders in 2013, and by the fall they had secured Walsh Construction as the contractor.

The 55,000-squarefoot complex will house

March 21, 2014 [5]

everything necessary for manufacturing, auto mechanics, carpentry and metal fabrication.

It is expected to open in 2015 and will cost $34.6 million, with the college fronting six million of those dollars.

“All these shops will match and mirror everything you see in industry,” Clearman said.

Clearman has high hopes for the programs, especially the dual bays at the automotive section.

Ideally, he says, manufacturers ranging from Kia to Porsche will be able to stock the bays with their own experts and tools, making it easy to learn mechanics for a specific car type at Green River.

“We’ll have existing mechanics train here, and out students will all benefit ‘cause they’ll go through the same thing.

And the sky’s the limit,” Clearman said. “We going to talk to Porsche, we’re going to talk to Mercedes.”

Clearman says that in the last year and a half many graduates with bachelor’s degrees have returned to community colleges after finding few job prospects. The demand for trade jobs is increasing.

“I can’t tell you how many people we’ve had who graduated from a four-year degree, and now they’re back learning a specific trade,” Clearman said.

Numbers seem to back up Clearman’s assertions.

As four-year degrees have found less demand in the past six years, two-year trade school degrees have been seen as more profitable. In a study published by collegemeasures. org, those students with two-year degrees made an average of $10,000 more in the first year out of college over their fouryear counterparts.

While GRCC has grown dramatically in the last eight years and is looking at adding a baccalaureate program, school president Eileen Ely says that they have no plans of competing directly with a four-year institution.

For now, teachers and students are looking forward to having a classroom where they won’t, as automotive teacher Dan Sorensen says, “have to move a garbage can to the middle of the classroom when it rains.”

She planned for her then 2-yearold daughter and son to stay with a babysitter overnight. According to charging documents, she left a voicemail with the babysitter the morning of her disappearance, stating that she would pick them up later in the day so she could do some shopping. Johnson also made plans to have lunch with a friend in Bellevue but never showed up. “[Her friend] drove to Sandi’s house in Kirkland and noted that her car wasn’t there and she didn’t answer the door,” according to charging documents. “He continued to try to contact Sandi throughout the day but he never heard from her again.”

After Johnson failed to pick up her kids and missed her son’s first birthday party, her estranged husband reported her missing.

That weekend, Burien Thriftway Market employees reported a green Ford Escort station wagon in the driveway, matching the description of Johnson’s vehicle. The doors were unlocked, the key was in the ignition, her cell phone and papers were in plain view and the seat was all the way back – unusual considering Johnson was petite, the documents continue.

Johnson’s wallet was later found on Rainier Avenue South at the Eagle Hardware store with a missing license.

Chamber, council not working in our best interests Did we elect the Kent Chamber of Commerce to the City Council?

It’s my understanding that the members of the City Council are beholden to all the citizens of Kent and not just to members of the Chamber of Commerce.

The chamber is holding the council hostage to promises that the business and occupation (B&O) tax would only be used for chamber-dictated projects before they would approve the new tax. When did the chamber get the idea that they dictate city policy?

It’s not the chamber’s business to tell city officials what taxes they will enact and what the terms of the tax usage will be – but in Kent, Washington it appears that government is run differently.

Why is the council making promises to the chamber?

Question of the week:

My plan with this week’s column was to write about something brainy, like free speech. You know, that First Amendment thing politicians and community cranberries throw around like a dayglow Frisbee?

Once I started writing, my brain began to hurt and images of buttermilk popsicles began dancing in my head. Here is the rub. No one really likes free speech, unless it’s their unfiltered gossip. That is why we have a First Amendment (that apparently no one reads if they can possibly resist).

Free speech means someone has the right to annoy, irritate and infuriate someone else with political speech … whatever that is … I think … kinda.

My daughter, Katy, exercises her free speech on me all the time. I never knew I was such a dumbwad until she learned to free speech me when she was 2. Now I get free speeched all the time.

My best attempts at suppression just seem to get me in deeper trouble. That may be the problem with daughters going to college and getting all smarty.

A week ago or so, Katy made me buy a new smarty-pants phone, which she picked out.

Yesterday, while I was writing this column, I had to take a picture with my new smartypants phone and send it to someone. I hit every button thing I could find and could not figure out where the dippy device hid the photo.

I finally caved out of desperation and called Katy to find out where my phone from the evil region put the photo.

It was cleverly hidden under photos. What sort of logic is that?

I got a lot of free speech from Katy for that one.

After being thoroughly annoyed by my phone, I decided to do something I was good at – cooking. I made some popcorn.

While it was popping on the stove, I became distracted with my hellish device looking at some recipe apps, and burned my popcorn. Fortunately, I have discovered a cure

because the businesses that comprise the Chamber use 16- and 18-wheeler trucks to receive and distribute their goods. These heavy trucks are responsible for the horrible state of our streets and roads and the businesses are responsible to pay for this damage through appropriate taxes. The chamber fought the B&O tax and, as a result, the council passed a pitiful tax on businesses that was full of loopholes and exemptions.

The truth is that the B&O tax should be increased and expanded so that Kent’s streets and roads can be sufficiently renovated, and appropriate safety projects should be included in “the list.”

Kent’s streets and roads are a mess and it is because the council kowtows to the business community is such an outrageous manner that they seem subservient to the will of the power-wielding chamber.

SPECIAL

City Council is loaded with business owners who support legislation favorable to businesses and not the interests of the citizens of Kent.

It’s outrageous to hear the council members placating the business community and ignoring the safety concerns of citizens and whole communities.

The B&O tax needs to be expanded to fix the pathetic condition of our streets and roads. It is the business community that causes the damage and they are responsible to repair the roads and provide safety measures to protect the people who live in Kent.

It is not the job of the City Council to serve at the behest of the Chamber of Commerce. Council members who are also influential chamber members need to get their moral obligations straightened out. We did not vote for the chamber to run our city. Back-room

deals between chamber members and council members is not appropriate. You are on the council to represent us – all of us – not just the businesses in Kent (including your own) whose vans and trucks destroy our streets and roads and who endanger our citizens when hazards are not remedied. – Sandra Gill

A painter, sculptor and printmaker, Pierce has works in various mediums included in the permanent collections of many of the world’s finest museums.

Since the 1950s, he has also been producing hand-crafted books which are written, illustrated and printed completely by the artist.

Pierce also taught at several major universities, and locally after he moved to Kent in 1953 at Seattle University, Cornish College

After teaching art in Alaska, Pierce worked as an art instructor for 20 years at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.

He retired and returned to Kent in 1985.

Laura Haertel, a Seattlebased American art historian who helped set up the

“It’s a chance to see a lot of his work together in one place that spans a period of his life at different places in our country,” Haertel said during a 2010 interview with the Kent Reporter. “He has paintings and drawings of a whale hunt in Alaska, logging in Oregon, lobster farming in Maine and cattle ranching in California that are all parts of the American experience in the 20th century.”

Prior to teaching in Alaska and Wisconsin, Pierce studied at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles before he was drafted in 1942 during World War II. He served in the Army from 1942 to 1945. While serving in the Army, Pierce met his wife, Julia, in Colo-

It surprised Pierce that he became a teacher.

“If anybody had told me at the time I would become a teacher I would’ve laughed at them,” Pierce said. “I use to stutter so bad I couldn’t talk.”

She was a registered nurse and served as a 1st Lieutenant in the U.S. Army during World War II. After marrying Danny Pierce on July 19, 1943 in Topeka, Kan., she became a homemaker, and together they raised four children.

OMAX hires senior Berry Plastics to lay off 118 employees Business sales manager BRIEFS for government and education REPORTER STAFF

FOR THE REPORTER

OMAX Corporation, a global leader in the design and manufacture of advanced abrasive waterjet cutting technology, recently named Chris Baer its new senior sales manager, government and education.

Baer will replace Steve Brown, who will retire on March 31 after 10 years with the company.

Baer is responsible for all Depart- Baer ment of Defense and government accounts in the United States, working directly with government and in tandem with OMAX’s government distributor Phillips Corporation, and handles future business development for government applications. He also oversees all sales to four-year colleges and universities as well as

QUALIFYING BUSINESSES can now file their business and occupation (B&O) taxes annually instead of quarterly with the city of the Kent.

The change is in line with suggestions from business owners, those whose quarterly B&O taxes due were less than $250 for each quarter of 2013, to file annually.

Other qualifications include: • Must have previously filed city B&O tax returns for 2013 • Possess a city business license • Have paid all city B&O, admissions, gambling and utility taxes owed • Be registered for online filing The change will save a lot of time and effort for those qualifying businesses says city auditor Robert Goehring.

development of training curriculum for educational customers.

Prior to joining OMAX, Baer served as a director of strategic projects within the industry. He holds a degree in chemical engineering, and in his 25-year career has been involved in process engineering, project management, and management of a wide range of sales, marketing and corporate issues and projects.

Mike Ruppenthal, vice president of North American sales at OMAX Corporation, said, “Chris is a great choice to handle two important and growing market segments for OMAX. Considering its longer sales cycle compared to commercial accounts, managing and growing government sales offers a significant challenge.”

“This change will benefit about 40 percent of businesses that paid the tax last year, as well as those that filed but didn’t owe any tax.

From the beginning, our desire has been to partner with the business community to ensure correct filing, while also easing the administrative burden of compliance,” Goehring said.

Previous filers receive email notification March 14 of their placement on annual filing status. Qualifying businesses that don’t receive this notification have until March 31 to submit an application for annual filing status.

The City Council also recently approved exemptions and deductions for some non-profit organizations such as homeowners associations and labor unions, as well as deductions for initiation fees, dues, contributions, donations and tuition.

Celia C. Field, Corporate Moving Systems, Kent, was recently honored with the United Van Lines 2014 Excellence in Sales Award. “Celia has a grace and tenacity about her that earns her the respect of others,” said Casey Ellis, senior vice president of sales for United Van Lines.

“A large part of her success is the longstanding, trusting relationship she builds with clients by listening to their needs and helping them solve problems.”

Betty Ferrin, 86, went to be with her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Tuesday, March 11, 2014, in American Falls, Idaho.

She was born on August 19, 1927, the only daughter of Ole and Ruth Kolden, in Aberdeen, South Dakota. Betty met her husband Carrol H. Ferrin in South Dakota, and later followed him to Seattle, Washington, and was married there on January 11, 1957.

Betty, at heart, was a wife and mother first, and a friend to everyone else. She took joy in taking care of her family, and would at times go without something so that her kids would have what they needed.

Her strong faith in Jesus was a testimony to her family and friends, and she was always ready to send prayers up to heaven at a moment’s notice. Her favorite hobby was decorating wedding cakes. This became profitable enough to supplement the family income, and be a safety net in the lean times. Betty loved to talk to anyone about the many cakes she decorated over the years.

She is survived by her brother Robert Kolden, South Houston, Texas and sister-in-law Helen Kolden, Aberdeen, South Dakota. Her daughters; Dawn Ferrin, Kent, Washington, Traci Ferrin, Seattle, Washington, Penny (Melvin) Martin, American Falls, Idaho and daughter-in-law Diana Steele-Ferrin, Kent, Washington. Her sons; Kevin (Cheryl) Ferrin, Burien, Washington and Kelly Ferrin, Renton, Washington. Eight grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband Carrol Ferrin, parents Ole and Ruth Kolden, brother Harlan Kolden, sisterin-law Kathlryn Kolden and also her nephew Michael Allan Kolden.

Graveside service was held March 15, 2014, at the Hillcrest Burial Park, 1005 Reiten Road in Kent, Washington.

HIALEAH, FL – An ingredient often used to treat inflammation in racehorse legs is now back on the market in its original doctor recommended clinical strength formula.

According to a national drug survey, the formula at one time became so popular that it rose to the top of pharmacy sales for topical pain relievers. But the company marketing the product at the time changed the formula and sales plummeted. One of the inventors of the original formula has brought it back under the trade name ARTH ARREST and

says it can relieve pain for millions.

ARTH ARREST works by a dual mechanism whereby one ingredient relieves pain immediately, while a second ingredient seeks out and destroys the pain messenger signal before it can be sent to the brain. Considered a medical miracle by some, ARTH ARREST is useful in the treatment of a variety of painful disorders.

ARTH ARREST is available without a prescription or call 877-581-1502.

What is known in South King County as Military Road is, in fact, part of the Fort Steilacoom-Fort Bellingham Road constructed under the supervision of the U.S. Army, which included a number of future Civil War generals, in the late 1850s. Although the name has changed outside South King County, the route remains largely unchanged from the six-foot-wide wagon road constructed on the eve of the Civil War. As a wagon road carved out of the wilderness over 150 years ago, Military Road encouraged settlement and commerce throughout its length, a legacy that continues today.

School board stays quiet on potential programs to return with levy

BY ROSS COYLE rcoyle@kentreporter.com

The Kent School District has remained hush-hush about potential programs it will renew with funds granted by the Feb. 11 voter-approved maintenance and operations levy voters.

While the district marketed the levy on the promise of returning old programs and providing new opportunities to schools, school officials have yet to provide

concrete examples of what the board plans on doing with the new money.

“We are not prepared to give specifics of how those dollars will be spent at this point as the budgeting process for the coming school year is in its early stages,” said Chris Loftis, the district’s executive director of communications and school/community partnerships.

“To comment here on a specific line item might impact the options the school board will have when they

review all of the requests, needs and requirements.“ The board is reviewing programs based on three cost questions: how much a program would cost each year; programs that were cut along with budget cuts; and the costs of adding new programs.

Kent School Board vice president Karen DeBruler said that much of the discussion among board members on programs has been speculative.

“I don’t want to say anything because if I say something and that’s put out there, then people will think, ‘well, that’s the way it is,’” DeBruler said.

DeBruler explained that any program decision will have to be considered and planned in advance, so discussion has been limited until formal forums are opened to the public. The board hopes to begin discussions as early as Wednesday’s meeting.

From there, the board will solicit

ideas at less formal community meetings and use surveys to gauge Kent’s interest in programs.

“We’ve got to figure out budget wise what we can afford,” DeBruler said. “We’ve got innovations that we want to expand or some new things that we hope to put in place that will really be good for our student achievement. Those things could be brought forward to us in the next couple years, they could be brought forward now.”

Mary Newell, Kent School District’s nurse facilitator, is among 15 forward-thinking, districtlevel leaders to be recognized by Education Week in its second annual Leaders To Learn From report.

Newell was selected from more than 900 people nominated by readers, members of the Education Writers Association, and state and national education groups.

Newell oversees the district’s 27 nursing staff and its student health services. One of her most impactful projects was to develop an in-school health clinic at Kent Phoenix Academy (KPA), one of the district’s “choice schools,” which serves a high-poverty student population.

At the inception of KPA, the district determined 15 dropout risk factors for students, and Newell’s health program, which was eventually named the Teen Health Center, addressed 13 of those factors.

Staff at KPA have been able to address conditions that threaten to keep students out of the classroom. For example, they have referred students to optometrists for glasses, identified anxiety disorders, helped students struggling with suicidal thoughts devise safety plans, and enabled students to discuss their health situations with their parents, which can be an intimidating task.

ents and children struggling with emotional, behavioral and/or substance abuse challenges by providing one-to-one parent peer support, parent classes and family social events for King County children and youth, their caregivers, parents and family members.

“I have talked to women around the country,” Herman said. “Mothers feel guilty for doing too much and guilty for doing too little for their children; guilty for having worked outside the home and guilty for not having worked; guilty for divorcing their child’s dad and guilty for staying. And what’s most distressing is that they sometimes feel guilty when their adult children are upset with them, even when they have no idea what they have done.”

Herman, who has practiced psychotherapy in Kent for 15 years, wrote the book, “Parents to the End:

LET US BE YOUR COMPANION ON THE PATH TO PARENTHOOD. Everyone approaches parenting differently. That’s why we give you more choices in prenatal care and a range of birthing options to fit your needs.

CENTRAL AVENUE CLEANUP: Those who visit downtown Kent on Sunday, are sure to find themselves in a sea of yellow. Yellow vests, that is.

About 100 volunteers from the World Mission Society Church of God of SeaTac will descend upon Kent to perform a cleanup campaign under the slogan, “Clean heart, clean city with the love of Passover!”

In honor of the upcoming Christian Passover on April 13, members from the Church of God say they are eager to put their faith into practice by arming themselves with gloves, trash bags, pickers and whatever else it takes to make Kent’s Central Avenue shine like new.

The Kent project marks the church’s sixth cleanup campaign.

The cleanup campaign will begin on James Street at noon and extend south through 259th Street, with an estimated completion time of 4 p.m.

The church invites anyone who wishes to come out and share the love. Signups can be done by contacting Jennifer Goble 775-881-8900 or Deborah Kwon 206-465-0255.

GETTING THE PLAY-BY-PLAY CALL Kent’s Williams is the new baseball voice of the WCL’s AppleSox FOR THE REPORTER

There will be a new voice calling all the action this summer for the Wenatchee AppleSox. Kent native Trevor Williams, who attends the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication at Washington State University, has been hired at the team’s radio broadcaster for the 2014 season.

Fans can hear Williams announce all 58 AppleSox game this summer on the team’s new flagship station, 93.9 Sunny FM. “Words do not adequately describe how excited and honored I am to be the next radio play-by-play voice of the Wenatchee AppleSox,” said Williams, a Kentwood High School graduate. “I want to thank the AppleSox organization for believing in my abilities and trusting me with this tremendous opportunity.

“I can’t wait for the start of the 2014 baseball season and am eager share a game that I love with the best fans in the West Coast League,” Williams said. “It is my goal that this season, at the ballpark and on-air, we can all celebrate summer one inning at a time, together.”

Williams has been active during his time at WSU. He has announced football, basketball, soccer, volleyball, and will begin broadcasting baseball this month for the school’s student radio station, KUGR.org.

In addition to his on-air experience at WSU, Williams works for the athletic communications department and has served as a

reporter for The Daily Evergreen.

Last summer he interned for Sports Radio 950 KJR in Seattle and was the lead play-byplay announcer for Kentwood basketball for Game Time Northwest.

Williams makes his debut for the AppleSox behind the mic on June 4 when the season begins with a two-game series at home against the San Francisco Seals.

The AppleSox will play a 59-game schedule this summer that includes 32 homes games.

For a pair of new faces, Kentlake’s coaches are awfully recognizable in the soccer community.

The Falcons bolstered their sideline pedigree for 2014 by adding two former professional soccer players to the staff. Head coach Chris Scotti, originally from Federal Way, played at Oregon State

before advancing to the professional indoor soccer stage for 10 years between 1993-2002, finishing as the ninth all-time leading scorer in the World Indoor Soccer League. One of his assistants, Othaniel Yanez, was drafted by the MLS’ Columbus Crew in the fourth round in 2010 after starring for the University of Louisville.

Scotti sees his and Yanez’s professional experience as an advantage

– being able to demonstrate nuances of the game, such as how to properly protect corner kicks, break down the final third during offensive attacks and understand the different speeds on grass compared to turf.

“We get in and play; showcase technique,” Scotti said. “I think that’s a little extra, more than the typical head coach can do.”

The Falcons are looking up from

over Tri-City, was his 44th with the team, tying him with Deron Quint (19931995) for most goals by a T-Bird defenseman.

While the 18-year-old Theodore continues to blossom for the T-Birds – so far he’s clocked 22 goals and 57 assists this season alone – he’s got an even brighter future, perhaps in the NHL. Last fall the Anaheim Ducks signed the Aldergrove, B.C., native as their first-round draft pick – 26th overall choice in the NHL Draft – to a threeyear-entry level contract.

He will remain in the junior ranks until he finishes high school.

He attended the Ducks training camp in 2012, a valuable experience for him.

“Everything’s just at a higher level than you see here,” said the 6-foot-2, 180-pound Theodore.

“Their job’s on the line every time they come into camp, so it was pretty cool to get to see.”

Getting drafted and playing for an NHL team means earning a professional salary.

“If it’s your contract year and you’re trying to sign, it’s definitely a pivotal year,” Theodore said.

Players who don’t sign with an NHL team often head to the American Hockey League, the 30team development league that primarily feeds the NHL.

Joining the T-Birds Theodore grew up in rural town about five minutes from the U.S.-Canadian border and signed with the T-Birds in 2011 for a half-season. He returned to play his first full season in 2011-2012.

The move down to Kent was a change, but Theodore most distinctly remembers the size of his audience.

“I played my first few games as a 15-year-old, so going from playing in front of, I don’t know, probably 50 people at a Midget game up in the Fraser Valley to playing in front of probably 3,000 on an average nightly basis here … it’s pretty special,” he said.

Theodore describes himself as an “offensive defenseman.”

“I’m a D-man first,” he said, “but I’ll join the rush, sometimes I’ll lead the rush.

You’re manning the point on the power play, you’re

playing a lot of minutes.”

He didn’t intend to adopt this style of play, he says, but it was a byproduct of circumstances.

Playing on a small team in the 12,000-person town of Aldergrove forced Theodore to become a versatile player.

“I grew up in a small town, so we didn’t have that many kids to pick from,” Theodore said.

While larger cities in his area, such as Abbotsford, might attract 400 kids to try out for a 19-person team, the Aldergrove Snipers drew around 22.

“Our team’s obviously not going to be as good, and I always had to step up going through minor hockey,” Theodore said.

“So I kinda had to put a little bit of load on my back. I tried to do as much as I could growing up, and I guess that kinda just carried over and kinda made me the player that I am.”

Theodore’s talent also has taken him around the world. He joined the Canadian under-18 championship team to play in Sochi, Russia in 2012 and followed it with playing in the U-18 championship team again in the Czech Republic in 2013.

His team won gold medals both years.

One of his toughest experiences, and the time he realized he needed to make some personal improvement, was after his under 17 championship team auditions.

The under-17 and under-18 teams are all-star teams made up of the best young players in a country.

Canada fields four teams.

Theodore tried out for the under-17 team in 2011, but didn’t make the cut. He returned the next year to try out for the under-18 team and made it in, bypassing the U-17 that feeds most players to the U-18.

With several successful seasons with the Thunder-

birds behind him, as well as his work on the U-18 teams, Theodore will be a name to watch as he moves up in the ranks.

Coached by Debbie Max and mentored by the IT professors at Green River Community College, the team earned the win by quickly and effectively establishing and maintaining secure networks in a series of increasingly difficult scenarios in which computer systems have been compromised.

The purpose of the competition was to tackle what President Obama has called “one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation; the cyberthreat.�

Good time to repair, treat your lawn THE GARDENER

of lawn is to dig sod of the same shape and size from the edge of the lawn and use this matching grass section to fill in the bare spot. Then reseed in the less visible perimeter parts of the lawn where you removed the sod patch.

Marianne Binetti

The last half of March is a prime time for lawn repair, rose pruning and berry feeding.

If you have not yet given your lawn a spring feed now is the time to apply a slow release lawn food with nitrogen. If there are bare spots in the lawn then repair them this week by raking out the moss and debris and sprinkling fresh seed. Be sure to use the same type of grass seed or overseed the entire lawn as different grass seed varieties will be different colors.

Another way to repair a patch

Q. When do I fertilize raspberries and what type of fertilizer should I use? J.H., Maple Valley A.

Pull on the garden gloves and shovel up some manure because March is the month to

pile manure around the roots of raspberries, blackberries and blue berries as these small fruits wake up from winter dormancy and decide how much fruit to bear this summer. A mulch of rotted manure applied in early spring will also help to keep down weeds that compete with the raspberries for food and water. Roses and perennials also appreciate a blanket of manure or Moo-Doo this time of year.

Q. I have a rose this supposed to be yellow but over the years it has been taken over by long shoots that bloom with red flow-

ers. I am thinking I should just dig it up and plant a new rose.

Can I plant a new rose in this same spot or will all roses turn red like the yellow rose? J.P., Olympia

A. I agree it is time for a change and March is a good month to add bare root roses to your landscape. Your yellow rose was taken over by a sucker that emerged from the root stalk of your grafted rose plant. To prevent this hostile take over you can purchase roses that are grown on their own roots such as the David Austin varieties or hardy “landscape” roses. The real root of the problem for most

rose plants is not digging a big enough planting hole. When you are placing a new rose in the same spot that an old rose had been growing you also need to replace the soil in that area to prevent “rose replant” disease. Dig a hole at least 2 feet wide by 2 feet deep and use soil from a different part [ more BINETTI page 27 ]

www.kentreporter.com [ BINETTI from page 26 ] of the garden to fill in around the new rose plant.

Soak bare root roses overnight before planting and if there is a cardboard box around the roots remove this despite what it says on the planting instructions.

New rose varieties are more disease resistant than ever before so get them off to a good start and I can promise you a rose garden.

Q. I have a hedge of healthy Flower Carpet roses and I have never pruned them. I also rarely fertilize

or water these roses. Do I need to cut them back every so often to keep them healthy? A.T., Tacoma

A. No, the reason the Flower Carpet roses are sold in pink plastic pots and not bare root like other roses is because they are grown on their own roots and are more closely related to our wild or native roses.

Flower Carpet roses and other landscape roses do not require annual pruning and get by on less water and fertilizer than the traditional hybrid tea rose. These tough varieties do grow

into large plants however so if you want to give them a spring hair cut just prune to shape by shortening all the branches by one third or use long handled loppers to snip out any branches that are dead, diseased or damaged.
