Skating skills come quickly for sisters Hallie and Ava Goetz, ages 3 and 6, with parents Debbie and Geoff of Snoqualmie. They learned to ice skate, minus the ice, at the Winter Magic festival, held Sunday, Dec. 14, at Snoqualmie’s Railroad Park. Downtown King Street was closed off to host the synthetic ice rink and related attractions. The rink moves to Snoqualmie Ridge YMCA on Tuesday, Dec. 23. Find more photos and a schedule on page 9.

Recent enrollment projections, past elections and a 2012 court ruling all point to an upcoming shortage of space and teachers for Snoqualmie Valley schools. To be ready for at least part of the shortfall, school district staff are working on facilities plans that will need board approval by spring, and developing a streamlined teacher hiring process.

Demographer Les Kendrick’s predictions are part of the push. Earlier this year, he forecast that the district would have about 7,400 students by the year 2020, and would require a third middle school a year earlier. November’s election results and the passage of Initiative 1351 calling for reduced class sizes, could move all school districts in Washington SEE SCHOOL GROWTH, 5

A community Christmas Valley donators, One VOICE volunteers help hundreds in 4th holiday drive

BY CAROL LADWIG Staff Reporter

Toys, clothes and books streamed out of the Snoqualmie Valley One VOICE event last week, as gifts and supplies for area families in need.

Donations of the same were coming back in almost as fast, along with pizzas and other donations to feed the army of volunteers who helped to put on the fourth annual event.

“I just want people to see this,” said Debby Peterman, a member of Snoqualmie Valley Kiwanis, which helped organize the event. This season, the holiday drive included more than 2,400 tags for children or adults, on more than 40 Giving Trees. “It’s such a community outpouring!”

Peterman may have been exhausted from the many weeks of work she put into the two-day event, but she wasn’t exaggerating. At least 40 area churches, clubs, schools and businesses have contributed to the joint effort to help struggling families, and that’s not counting the individuals.

In Brief

Snoqualmie council endorses ‘Proposition 1’ school bond The Snoqualmie City Council voted 7-0 last Monday, Dec. 8, to support Snoqualmie Valley School District Proposition 1, a facilities improvement bond, which will be on the ballot for the February 10 special election.

Council members passed City of Snoqualmie Resolution 1279, stating “improvements to school facilities are needed in Snoqualmie Valley School District No. 410, in order to provide the students of the district with adequate, proper, and safe education facilities.”

Snoqualmie City Council members encouraged voters to pass Proposition 1.

Information about Proposition 1 is on the school district website at www.svsd410.org.

Training session, meeting on winter shelter planned

Above, event helper Kim Irvine holds some of the year’s most popular toys—anything to do with the movie “Frozen”—from the storage room for OneVOICE donations. Below, Sarah Ricks, a volunteer personal shopper, helps her client keep track of the items she’s collecting. The Snoqualmie woman went above and beyond her job by helping her client decide on various options for her children.

GIVING FROM 1 Genie Industries in North Bend sent over at least 45 of its employees—with pay— to help sort clothes in the clothing bank, work with clients to “shop” for holiday gifts, drive to various Giving Tree sites in the Valley and collect donations, and, before the event opened, to help convert the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in North Bend from a church to Santa’s workshop, of rooms filled with new toys and clothes, plus, of course, a gift-wrapping station.

“I’m here for whatever they need me to do,” said Sabrina Steinback, a human resources staffer at Genie.

“She can probably run the place by now,” added Stacey Cepeda, community activities manager with Encompass, also a key player in the creation of the annual event.

The gifts Now that it’s started, though, One VOICE seems to be running itself. Any job that needs doing, gets done.

Volunteers check in the clients, who previously signed up at the Snoqualmie Valley Food Bank for a specific time to shop, then brief them on the process. They get a bag, and a personal shopper who helps them gather up items and tracks them on a score card—each gift is

A Valley Renewal Center volunteer training session is planned for 6 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 18, at the North Bend Library, 115 East 4th St. All volunteers interested in serving in any capacity at the winter shelter, outside of meals, should complete this one-night training, along with a background check, prior to visiting the shelter.

The shelter will be holding monthly public meetings throughout this winter’s shelter season. The next meeting is 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 8, at the North Bend Library. To learn more, send an e-mail to Jennifer Kirk, shelter director, at director@valleyrenewalcenter.com or call (425) 505-0038.

Four host families needed for Korea exchange Ten Korean students from Snoqualmie’s sister city of Gangjin will arrive on January 9 for a three-week stay. Local host families are needed. Four Korean girls still need homes for a three-week stay January 9 through 29. Students will attend either the Mount Si Freshman Campus or Twin Falls Middle School.

All exchange students will have insurance and spending money.

During the exchange, Snoqualmie Sister Cities Association members will chaperone some field trips. For more information about becoming a host family, contact Joan Pliego at jpliego@ci.snoqualmie.wa.us or (425) 516-1616.

Rep. Reichert’s sex traffic prevention bill becomes law

worth one or more points— and they collect other necessities, like toilet paper, shampoo and diapers, contributed by other churches.

Then they head to the gift-wrap and raffle room.

During check-in, each client got raffle tickets to try to win a gift from the especially choice items that were set aside, including a radio-controlled helicopter, air hockey table, Tonka fire truck, Easy-Bake oven, and a large stuffed Olaf, from the movie “Frozen.”

Anything “Frozen” is the hot item this year, so not all the Olafs hit the floor at once. There are a few tucked away in a storage room, along with four or five basketballs and footballs, Lego sets, and Star Wars toys, and

they come out of storage as needed.

“We try to keep it so the clients who come in the afternoon or after work have the same opportunity,” said Kim Irvine, a volunteer with the LDS church.

One mother, then shopping in the gift room, was considering her opportunities. “My daughter actually has these books,” she told her shopping helper, as she picked up a gift set in a pink box. They looked at the listed contents, art supplies like paper, glitter and stickers, and she put it back on the shelf. “Those stickers would be all over the floor,” she sighs.

One VOICE is the collaborative effort of many Valley service organizations. It was

started four years ago as a way of extending the help that organizations could offer people, both during the holidays and in a summer event, without duplicating efforts.

And, says Steinback from Genie, “It’s fabulous. You’re doing good work for the community.”

Get involved

The Giving Trees will be on display throughout the Valley until Christmas. To contribute, take a tag from a tree and buy a gift appropriate for the gender and age listed on the tag. Donations will be accepted through Christmas, and anything not distributed by the holidays will be stored for next year’s event.

A recent bill, the “Preventing Sex Trafficking and Strengthening Families Act,” was signed into law this fall by President Obama. This bipartisan legislation includes bills from Rep. Dave Reichert, of the Valley’s Eighth District, to prevent the sex trafficking of youth in foster care (H.R. 4058) and to ensure proper child support payments even when a parent lives abroad (H.R. 1896).

“In 33 years of law enforcement, I saw all too often the tragic circumstances these children could end up in if not properly taken care of,” Reichert said in a statement. “Now, this new law will help protect children from the horrors of sex trafficking and give them opportunities to lead more normal and successful lives.”

The new law will specifically act to prevent sex trafficking by: • Requiring state child welfare agencies to identify, document, and determine appropriate services for children in foster care or who are otherwise involved in the child welfare system who are victims of child sex trafficking or at risk of becoming victims.

• Requiring state child welfare agencies to promote “normalcy” for youth in foster care allowing them to more easily participate in ageappropriate social, scholastic and enrichment activities.

Snowbird reunion planned for February 2015 The 12th annual Snoqualmie Valley Snowbird Gathering is noon Wednesday, February 4, at the Foothills Eatery in Yuma, Ariz.

For more than a decade, Valley residents who fly south for the winter have gathered on Groundhog’s Day. Anyone from the upper and lower Valley may attend. To learn more, call Vicki at (623) 974-9944.

Don’t mean to brag, but..

Valley Record’s 2014 awards list includes a look at changing chiefs, singalong, bikers

O

ne of the thing we’ve accomplished at the Valley Record this past year was to pick up a slew of awards in the 2014 Washington Newspaper Publishers Association’s annual better newspaper contest.

This year’s awards showcase not only our work, but also underscore just how special this Valley is. The personalities, passions and events that drive the news in the Snoqualmie Valley not only keep us constantly scrambling to cover everything, they also show what true community is about.

Reporter Carol Ladwig was, once again, a Writer of the Year finalist, this time for features.

Among the stories we submitted that got her this recognition were “Blending of Worlds,” a look at Johann Sasynuik’s kung fu school in Fall City; “Home, again,” a story about Kris and Dick Kirby’s restoration of Dick’s original home in Carnation; “To the ends of the earth,” about Marty and Chris Fagan’s Antarctic journey of a lifetime; and “The guide,” about Gene Grantham’s puppy-raising work for Guide Dogs for the Blind.

“Highway to Heaven,” Ladwig’s story about Preston’s annual motorcyle SETH TRUSCOTT dedication, got a third place for best long, general feature Valley Record Editor story. This piece explores how deep religious faith and leather-wearing bikers go together, instead of canceling each other out.

Next up is a 2014 first place for best general, long feature story for my March look at the transition in leadership at Snoqualmie Fire Department, titled “Changing of the Chiefs.”

Bob Rowe, who helmed the fire department during its crucial years of growth, was stepping down after 15 years with Snoqualmie Fire. At the same time, Mark Corriera was coming on board as the new head of the department, so the two chiefs had to work together and share knowledge during a time of change.

I also got a third place for best story on the arts, for last fall’s “Swing Years” story, all about Harley Brumbaugh’s 1940s singalong for the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum. It’s easy to grab an award if the subject is Harley, a local legend in the teaching, sharing and performance of song and music. Many more words can and should be written in this paper about his civic work, and it was good to see him continuing to do his thing at the recent North Bend holiday tree lighting festival.

The Record also picked up a third place award for an in-house advertisement promoting our carriers, the “Carrier of the Month” ad. This was something I had wanted to give some attention to for several years.

Carriers are among the people who make the Record stand out, ever since we switched to this delivery mode four years ago. While using real carriers to bring you your paper introduces the human element, complete with the vagaries of weather, turnover, learning curve and all that, it’s also a way for young people to get their first job, learn how to do a good job and be responsible, and we’ve had quite a few kids try it over the years. Our award-winning ad showcases those young workers who stand out and do a great job.

These awards were announced back in October; The next round of submissions is next spring. You can bet we’ll be going over the archives soon for the 2015 contenders. If you had a favorite story, let us know; drop a line to editor@valleyrecord.com.

“He’s the love of my life, since I married him.”

• Twenty-seven years ago, a new restaurant was opened by Don Tift. A month later, Caroline Main, who had worked for Tift over at the Mar-T Cafe, began her job at the Tift Haus. Now, after staying on through two other bosses, Main’s last day working over the restaurant stove will be Dec. 29.

• Late last week, a draft interlocal agreement was transmitted to the King County Council, Snoqualmie City Council and Weyehaeuser, signaling a possible end to differences on the Snoqualmie Ridge proposal. The deal specifies what will be allowed on the Lake Alice plateau, and protects the environment on neighboring lands.

jected to have no free classrooms next year, and may require portables. In Fall City, the addition of portables would require an expansion of the septic system.

Funding question Also, Stokes felt that the board would need to decide on buying portables no later than March.

“We don’t anticipate the legislature to finish their session prior to July 1, which I think is too late to be able to make some significant budgetary decisions for next year,” he said. “I think we may have to make some decisions regardless of what we think is going to happen at the legislature.”

It’s probable that education funding will be one of the last issues settled by the legislature, including action on McCleary and funding for the voter-approved class-size reduction measures. Stokes said the district would not likely be able to “make very significant changes in class size reductions from a McCleary or state funding level standpoint in 15-16, nor can we probably expand very many of the full-day K offerings,” Stokes said.

“Assuming that the state comes through with McCleary… elementary six won’t be sufficient for all of our needs for class size reduction,” he said. A seventh elementary school would be needed.

Elementary six is part of a proposed $245 million

bond that school district voters will consider for the Feb. 10 special election.

The proposal would build, repair or remodel buildings at all grade levels, in an eight-year phased process that would result in a sixth elementary school, a rebuilt Mount Si High

School, and the conversion of the freshman campus back into a third middle school.

And finally, the state supreme court’s pressure on the legislature to fully fund public education, commonly called the McCleary decision, may force a solution from the legislative session starting in January.

“We are expecting a shortage of qualified teachers with the new state funding,” assistant superintendent Ryan Stokes told the school board at its Dec. 11 meeting.

He described the highlevel plan for the district to speed up its mechanism for offering teachers contracts in the summer, and then went over the facilities needs, based on existing conditions and projections.

For the 2015-16 school year, he said, the middle school grades are expected to grow by 20 to 30 fulltime equivalent students, but should not need to add portable classrooms. Chief Kanim Middle School could have one free classroom, and Twin Falls Middle School staff are considering converting three computer labs into classrooms, and using computers on carts to add capacity.

Three elementary schools, Fall City, Opstad and Snoqualmie, are pro-

Full-day Kindergarten was required by the state legislature for all school districts, by the start of the 2017-18 school year, although a funding mechanism was not included.

Currently, the district received about 60 percent of its funding from the state.

It offers some full-day programs, and some half-day, so Kindergarten students are counted as half of fulltime equivalent students.

The expansion to full-day for all Kindergartens would require significantly more classrooms, as would 1351 and McCleary, Stokes noted.

Natural Helpers inspired to help others

North Bend‘s Forest Heintz is National Merit Commended Student Eastside Catholic School student Forest Heintz of North Bend has been named a Commended Student in the 2014 National Merit Scholarship Program.

Eastside Catholic had a total of 10 students named Commended Students. Also being named were Dino De Raad, Ian Dorney, Preston Ewart, Matthew Iwicki, Brooks Meadowcroft and Joseph Meehan of Sammamish, Daniel Assumpcao of Woodinville and Miwako Ito and Quinn Murphy of Bellevue.

“We are all very proud of the accomplishments of these students,” said Principal Polly Skinner. “Each of them have shown outstanding dedication and focus for academic success.”

A letter of commendation from the school and National Merit Scholarship Corporation, which conducts the program, was presented to the seniors.

About 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation are being recognized for their academic promise. Although they will not continue in the 2014 competition for National Merit Scholarship awards, Commended Students placed among the top 5 percent of more than 1.5 million students who entered the 2014 competition by taking the 2012 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test.

Every year, a group of Mount Si High School students are trained to be Natural Helpers at a weekend retreat. They return to the school with inspiration and enthusiasm for improving the school climate and helping others.

At their training in November, students learned communication skills, how to recognize depression and substance abuse, how to help prevent suicide, and how to better reach out to peers and when to refer students in need.

After the training, students said things like: “Best learning experience I have ever had. It has made me a different person.”

“This camp was amazing and I am very thankful I was allowed to be a part of it.”

Mount Si High School’s PTSA has funded the Natural Helpers Training Retreat for several years.

To find out more, contact the Mount Si Natural Helper Club advisors, Phoebe Terhaar on the main campus or Brian Mccormick at the freshman campus.

Katrina Alegado, an eighth grade science teacher at Twin Falls Middle School, has been accepted into Ecology Project International’s Marine Education Fellowship in Costa Rica, April 18 to 25.

She will travel to Costa Rica to focus on inquiry-based instructional methods through hands-on learning initiatives and field research. With 13 other teachers, Alegado will participate in leatherback sea turtle census research, and explore the tropical rainforest while learning about Costa Rica’s incredible biodiversity.

Alegado has been chosen for the past four consecutive years as a top 10 national workshop participant for the EARTH (Education and Research: Testing Hypotheses) Workshop through MBARI the (Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute) focusing on real-time data and current ocean research.

“I am super excited for this opportunity because it will bring real-life field experiences into my classroom and school to enrich instruction,” said Alegado.

The teacher is also organizing a nine-day trip for students to Yellowstone National Park this summer with Ecology Project International. The trip, August 8 to 16, is for students in grades 8 to 10 who want to participate in ongoing wildlife conservation research projects. EPI’s programs use science education in an experiential setting to engage youth in field research and empower them to take an active role in conservation.

“I am looking forward to an amazing week-long Yellowstone adventure for interested local students in August through EPI. This trip will inspire students to learn about the natural world and focus on conservation efforts,” added Alegado.

Registration deadline is Feb. 15. For more information, contact Alegado at alegadok@svsd410.org or visit the Ecology Project International website at www.ecologyproject.org.

Two Rivers PTSA group is official

Two Rivers PTSA members received the organization charter from the Washington PTSA Region 2 director this fall. Two Rivers, a choice school for middle- and high-school students is the last school in the Snoqualmie Valley School District to form the organization for parents, teachers and students. Pictured above, from left are: Kitty Lynch, treasurer; Stephen Kangas, legislative chairperson; Jane Dulski, director, State PTSA Region 2; Trissa Barney, secretary; Monte Lynch, vice president; Gail Thompson, president; Jack Webber, community liaison; Amy-Montayne Johnson, Two Rivers principal; and Joel Aune, superintendent.

More than 75 members helped to charter the organization, which developed this summer. The organization’s priorities include helping the school by sponsoring enrichment speakers, grants for teachers, encouraging alumni involvement, and helping to fund educational field trips. Increasing membership is also a priority, says president Gail Thompson.

“We made all the kids honorary members,” she added.

The next general membership meeting will be in January, but Thompson said the board will meet, “kind of any time, anywhere,” to talk about their work.

The first Two Rivers PTSA fundraiser is also underway, a holiday wreath and garland sale. For information about the organization or the sale, contact Thompson at Go2gailt@ gmail.com.

Snoqualmie Valley School District teachers who recently earned national board certification were recognized Dec. 11 at the school board meeting. A total of 15 teachers earned the certification after a lengthy qualification process. Superintendent Joel Aune said that 15 teachers receiving certification in one year is a record for the district, which now has 51 teachers (another record) holding national board certification.

Gail Smith, a district teacher on special assignment, told the board that the district was slightly ahead of state averages. Statewide, the average percentage of nationally board certified teachers in a school district is 14, but “We’re approaching 15 percent,” Smith said.

About half of the teachers to be recognized were unable to attend the meeting. Pictured above, from left, are School Board Vice President Carolyn Simpson, teachers Janice Wintermyer, Karen Schotzko, Christina McCloskey, Salina Fassler, Kelsey Carr and Nathan Barnes, and Superintendent Joel Aune.

By school, the following teachers have recently earned the certification: Mount Si High School, Jessica Easthope, Megan Marino, Leann Stewart, Benjamin Tomlisson, David Ramseyer, Elizabeth Rugh, and Karen Schotzko; Chief Kanim Middle School, Janice Wintermyer; North Bend Elementary School, Kelsey Carr, Christina McCloskey and Salina Fassler; and Snoqualmie Elementary School, Diane Tatum, Nathan Barnes, Sheena Harter and Erin Whitney.

Snoqualmie Corridor Recreation Plan open for public comment The Snoqualmie Corridor Recreation Plan, which covers a landscape that sees more than 800,000 outdoor enthusiast visits each year, is now open for public comment.

Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) released the plan for State Environmental Policy Act (SEPA) review and the public is invited to submit comments until 4:30 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 19.

The planning area includes Tiger Mountain, Rattlesnake Mountain, Raging River State Forest, the state trust lands surrounding the community of Preston, and Mount Si and Middle Fork Snoqualmie natural resources conservation areas.

Julie Frazier, a Duvall author and illustrator, has put out a new children’s book, “Bird Brainz.”

The colorful book sends a message about differences and appreciating unique qualities in others.

“If children can gain an appreciation for the uniqueness in themselves and others, it will help them to celebrate their differences,” stated Frazier. “When children learn to celebrate the uniqueness in themselves and others, they become Bird Brainz!”

Finding their footing Mount Si gymnasts coming into their own for first home 4A meet

BY SETH TRUSCOTT Editor

After a rocky start on beam and vault, Jen Rogers upped her game on the beam and just plain rocked it on the floor in the Wildcats’ first home meet of the gymnastics season.

Like other gymnasts, Rogers is starting to find her footing in 4A. Mount Si gymnasts competed against Redmond last Thursday, Dec. 11, in a three-way double dual with Interlake and Newport. The Wildcats had the second-highest team score of the match, 159.25 to Newport’s 165.65.

Rogers was first on floor with a 9.7.

“I’m basically perfecting what I’ve been doing,” the senior said. “With me and my floor routine, I like to keep it as clean as I can. If it’s not going to be clean, I don’t like putting it in. I’ll work, and by the end of the season, I’ll have some new tumbling passes.”

Sophomore Samantha Holmes was third with a 9.5, senior Hailey Johnson was ninth with an 8.7, junior Maggie Kenow was 12th and sophomore Lauren McCallum tied for 13th.

On floor, “the adrenaline really kicked in, and that’s what took me to a great routine,” McCallum said, in this, Mount Si’s second meet of the season.

“After the first meet, we went to practice and broke it down—this is what you need to do” for higher start values and better performances, said coach Jessica Easthope. “I threw at them so many corrections, and they took the time to to listen and implement those. It showed tons.”

“We’re matching up in 4A, which is nice,” said Hailey Johnson. That’s good, she said, because the team wasn’t sure quite how they would transition from 3A. Holmes had a great night on floor, the coach commented, and on beam, Kenow and Holmes both had very strong routines.

At the Centralia Tiger Classic wrestling tournament, held Saturday, Dec. 13, Mount Si placed third in the boys varsity division.

Of the nine wrestlers who entered, eight placed. Mark Mulligan was the champion in his 170-pound bracket. Gunnar Harrison was third at 138 pounds; and Mason Marenco was third at 152 pounds; senior Cameron McLain was fifth at 220 pounds; senior Justin Edens was fifth at 160 pounds; Duncan Harrison was fifth at 126 pounds; Tyler McConnell was fifth at 132 pounds; and Jack Hamerly was fifth at 145 pounds.

Against Eastlake on Thursday, Dec. 11, Mount Si beat Eastlake, 46-24.

Senior Justin Edens, at 170 pounds, beat Eastlake’s James Jensen in a major decision, 11-2.

At 138, Gunnar Harrison pinned Andrew Collins; at 145, Hamerly won a major decision, 11-9, over Collins; at 152, Marenco beat William Gallarpe in a technical fall, 15-0; at 160, Kurtis Olson beat Rogan Kopper of Eastlake in a 7-4 decision.

Mount Si wresters won four forfeits, forfeited one loss, and there was one double forfeit. Eastlake had three pins.

In other action, on Thursday, Dec. 4, Mount Si beat Redmond, 39-33.

First they learned to walk on the slick surface. Then, after a few minutes, they were dancing, twirling, laughing and sometimes landing flat on their backs. So it goes when children start to skate.

Snoqualmie’s Winter Magic festival got started Sunday, Dec. 14, on a closed-off section of King Street next to downtown’s Railroad Park, on the first day of skating sessions planned for both downtown and Snoqualmie Ridge. The afternoon event also lured families with carriage rides, a bonfire, and photos with two “ice princesses” courtesy of Princess Parties by Palettes and Pairings.

The littlest skaters held hands with parents, watching older children zoom around on the synthetic surface of the rink.

Moments after opening, the rink had drawn a crowd. Onlookers from the Santa Train at Northwest Railway Museum gathered along the fence to watch children and parents skate.

“It’s nice that they did this for the community,” said Tracie Smith, watching her daughter Gracie, 9, swirl excitedly. “It gets people outdoors, and it’s a great day.”

“It’s really fun,” said Gracie. She had the occasional fall. “I just get back up and start skating.”

The cost is $10 for skaters age 10 and older, $5 for children ages 3 to 9.

The fee includes skate rental and a 45-minute skating session.

For the remainder of the week, the ice rink schedule is: • Wednesday, Dec. 17, open skate, 2:30 to 5 p.m.; family skate 6 to 8 p.m.

• Thursday, Dec. 18, open skate, 2:30 to 5 p.m.

• Sunday, Dec. 21, open skate, 1 to 4:30 p.m.; family skate, 6 to 9 p.m.

The following week, the rink moves to the basketball court at the Snoqualmie Ridge YMCA, 35016 S.E. Ridge St. Skate times are: • Tuesday, Dec. 23, open skate, 1:30 to 4:30 p.m.

GYMNASTS FROM 8 “It’s early in the season, we have room to grow,” coach Easthope said. “I think they’ll do great.”

“By midseason, not only mine but everybody else’s skills are going to be upped,” Kenow

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

said. “It’s all going uphill.”

In her floor routine, Holmes tried out a new double salto (flip) pass, with a double handspring, a front pike (a jump that looks like you’re trying to touch your toes in the air) and a front tuck, or somersault.

“It adds more value to my

routine,” she said. “I really think that influenced it.”

“I’ve definitely improved a lot, everywhere, but specifically on floor,” Holmes added.

“It feels really good to be able to do that.”

Rogers got second on beam with an 8.5. Freshman Morgan Lowell was fourth

with an 8, and Johnson tied for sixth with a 7.8. Holmes was ninth with a 7.6.

Beam has always been a challenge, said Lowell, who was proud of her result.

“This meet, I added a dive cartwheel, which improved my score a lot,” she said. “I feel more solid this year.”

On bars, Rogers was second with a 7.8. Holmes was fourth with 7.35, followed by Lowell at fifth with a 7.1. Johnson was seventh with 6.85, followed by Kenow with a 6.7. Sophomore Lauren McCallum was 16th with 5.65.

In all around scores, Rogers was second. Holmes was third. Lowell was 10th and Kenow was 12th.

Mount Si always emphasizes their team dynamic, and this season is no exception.

“This group is really good about cheering each other on,” said Easthope. “Younger ones are not afraid to cheer on the older ones, and the older ones are doing a good job of mentoring the younger ones.”

“We fit together as a team,” says McCallum. “Even though gymnastics feels like an individual sport, we come together and support each other.”

Vaccines are the best way to weather the flu season

Flu and cold season is in full swing, but it’s not too late to get immunized. A flu vaccine is the best way to prevent this serious illness, which is prevalent in the Northwest from November to April. The sooner you get vaccinated, the more likely you are to be protected against the flu.

“This year has the potential of being a very challenging influenza year,” Dr. Kim Witkop, Vice President of Medical Affairs for Snoqualmie Valley Hospital, said. “It’s not too late to receive your vaccine. Getting vaccinated now will protect people throughout the flu season and avoid spreading it to others who are at higher risk, such as young children and older adults.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that everyone aged 6 months and older should receive the annual flu vaccine. Each year, the seasonal vaccine is designed to protect against the main flu viruses that research suggests will cause the most illness.

Unlike a regular cold, the flu comes on suddenly. Symptoms include fever, sore throat, dry cough, headache, dizziness and general body aches. Getting the vaccine is especially important for people at higher risk of developing serious complications from the flu, including pregnant women, children younger than 2 years old, people 65 years and older and those with certain chronic medical conditions.

In addition to getting vaccinated, using good health habits can also help prevent spreading the flu to others. Wash your hands frequently, cover your cough and stay home when you’re sick. If you develop flu-like symptoms, there are prescription antiviral drugs, such as Tamiflu, that can make your illness milder and shorten the time you are sick.

See your doctor right away if you think you may have the flu as it is treatable for the first few days only. If you wait, it can take up to three weeks to recover.

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

“Everyone is susceptible to the flu virus and the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones is to receive the vaccine,” Witkop said.

Flu vaccines are provided at Snoqualmie Ridge Medical Clinic at 35020 S.E. Kinsey St., Snoqualmie. No appointment is needed. Office hours are from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. Vaccines are also available at the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital Primary Care Clinic during normal business hours. Learn more at www.SVHD4.org.

Shaun Sears of North Bend rescues Evee in late November, after she’d been stuck in a tree for two days. He and Tom Otto of Olympia, are the founders of Canopy Cat Rescue, a donation-based organization dedicated to helping cats in high places.

Cats in trees for Christmas

A year’s worth of cats rescued from trees might be the ideal gift for an animal lover on your list, and it’s easier to wrap than you might think.

The Canopy Cat Rescue Calendar, a first-time fundraiser for the North Bend and Olympia-based team of climbers, features 12 stranded cats and their rescue stories, plus other fun cat facts.

Climbers Shaun Sears of North Bend and Tom Otto of Olympia have rescued hundreds of cats, stuck in trees, on utility poles, and in other high places, for years.

Across

They work for donations only.

“We don’t want to make money off other people’s misfortunes,” Sears explained.

They do take donations through their website, and sell Canopy Cat logo gear.

All purchases, including the

calendar sales, go to fund their work.

The 11-by-17-inch fullcolor calendars are $25 each, which includes shipping. Find the Canopy Cat Rescue Calendar on their website, www.canopycatrescue.com, or on Facebook.

Rachel Friedman and dad Scott play Dickensian characters in ‘Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol,’ at North Bend’s Valley Center Stage.

Christmas Mystery Moriarty and other spirits haunt fiction’s great detective, Dickens style, in Valley Center Stage’s holiday production, “Sherlock Holmes and the Case of the Christmas Carol.”

The show, running through Dec. 20, focuses on the ill-tempered Holmes, refusing to celebrate the holidays despite Dr. Watson’s best efforts to cheer him. He is visited by three unexpected callers, who help him solve the most important mystery of his life.

“It’s an allegory about how imporant people are in one’s life,” says North Bend actor Rene Schuchter, who plays Dr. Watson.

The play was written by Seattle Playwright John Longenbaugh, and features Brendan Elwood as Sherlock Holmes.

The show runs through Saturday, with 7:30 p.m. performances Thursday and Friday, Dec. 18 and 19, and two showings, 2 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 20.

Shape up with exercise classes at SnoValley Center Sno-Valley Senior Center offers a number of fitness opportunities for seniors.

The Sno-Valley Senior Center is located at 4610 Stephens Ave., Carnation.

DMW Martial Arts in Snoqualmie held their black belt graduation on the weekend of November 15 and awarded Black Belts to 14 successful students.

Third-degree black belts were awarded to Veronique and Elizabeth Bourgault. The two have been training at DMW for nine years and have been role models to the younger students, coaches said. Two second-degree black belts were awarded to Christopher Buyagwan and Kyle Bolin. First-degree black belts were awarded to Shawn Masters,Trajen Hockenbury, Princeton See, Donavan See, Rudy Herman, Cameron Myers, Alex Williams, J.D. Howard, Branson Corneil and Delanie Wilson.

Few people have the dedication to earn a black belt.

Generally, it takes four years of consistent training to attain the rank.

“We are very proud of our new black belts. Their hard work and determination has distinguished them in the community,” said Dan Cartan, owner and chief instructor.
