Snoqualmie family rescues flood-stranded goldfish

This is a fish story, but not about the ones that got away.

In this tale, the fish come back home, and are all living happily ever after, thanks to an observant neighbor.

Jesse Herrin of Snoqualmie is the hero of our story, rescuing seven large goldfish stranded in his back yard by the rapid rise and fall of the Snoqualmie River Jan. 6.

It all started when the river overflowed its banks Jan. 6, rolling through the back yards of the Southeast Park Street neighborhood, and making the fishes’ pond a whole lot bigger. The fish,

Right: goldfish owner Maureen Irey, left, with the neighbors who rescued her goldfish, Ashton and Viviane Fender, and dad, Jesse Herrin. pets of Rick and Maureen Irey, just swam into Herrin’s back yard, where the slowly receding water left them stranded by Tuesday night.

“When I left (for work) Wednesday morning, there was no water in the yard,” Herrin told his wife, Diana Fender, as the two recounted the story for the Record last week.

It’s hard to say what the Best in State team of Tolt Middle School students found more appealing in a recent competition, the opportunity, or the swag.

“At first, we just wanted to do it for the prizes,” said Ryan LaTurner, an eighth grader.

His classmate Clayton Kristiansen diplomatically added, “We also thought it would be a fun experience to do an app.”

“I couldn’t believe it when he showed up at the door!”

Maureen Irey, Snoqualmie resident, talking about Jesse Herrin, goldfish hero

FISH FROM 1 When he came back a few hours later, to care for their daughter Viviane who was ill, the yard was dry enough that he decided to start cleaning up.

The flood had left behind a fine layer of silt, and had scattered clutter throughout the yard, he said, so he just started picking up toys.

He noticed a bright fish in the grass, he said. “I thought it was a toy… it was just bright gold, and the sun was out,” he said. Then he picked it up.

“I knew for sure that it was someone’s goldfish,” he said.

The fish didn’t look good, but he decided to put it in water anyway, a large outdoor water table in the yard.

He was pleasantly surprised to see that the fish got more lively, but then went back to his cleanup job.

“I came across another one, and then near it was another one,” he said. “They did not look like they were going to make it.”

Herrin guessed they’d been out of the water about eight hours by then.

Into the water table they went, though, and when he saw them perk up, too, he decided to do an actual search for the fish. After a sweep of his yard, he’d found six, all of them starting to revive in the water. He spotted another one in a neighbor’s yard, and rescued that, too.

When he couldn’t find any more fish, it was time to find their owner.

“My contribution to this story was just to tell him that he had to find the owners, or else this story wouldn’t have a happy ending, it would have a sad one, with those fish getting eaten by a raccoon overnight,” Fender said.

They almost did, anyway, because Herrin and Viviane walked around their neighborhood, knocking on a few doors, showing their camera-phone pictures of the fish and asking everyone, including friends on social media, if they knew someone who owned a pond and might be missing some fish.

They’d started to think that the fish may have come from further away than their own neighborhood, and it was early evening by then.

“We were just about ready to stop looking,” Herrin said, when they talked to their next-door neighbor, who knew the Ireys, and knew they’d just gotten back from a vacation.

Maureen Irey was “ecstatic” when Herrin showed her the pictures of the fish.

“I couldn’t believe it when he showed up at the door!” she said.

They joked that Herrin found Nemo, but none of the fish have names. They are all special to Irey.

“I put in a pond three years ago, and bought 10 little fish,” she said. “Ten fish for a dollar…

Below left: A few fish are visible in the pond, but Irey said the water is still murky from the flood, and more should be seen soon. Below, right: The seven fish that Herrin found went into this water table, where they quickly revived. Bottom right: The Herrins back yard had about four feet of water flowing through, when the fish came to vist and got stuck in the yard by the receding water.

“I bought the ones they sell for food.

I said ‘we’re going to rescue 10 of them, at least.’”

The rescued fish flourished in her pond, and they reproduced there, too.

Irey said there were 15 goldfish in the pond before the flood, and she could find only four afterward, but she thinks there might be more, once the silt settles.

“They were all getting down in the mud,” she remembered, in the days before they left on their trip.

“They must have known something was coming.”

As for the missing fish, Irey hopes they are in the river, or found their way to someone else’s pond.

Her own fish are now community pets; the Herrins are invited to stop over and see them any time.

New Value Village Store Opening in Issaquah

Paid Advertisement

National secondhand store Value Village opens the doors to a new location on Thursday, February 19.

National secondhand store Value Village opens the doors to a new location in Issaquah on Thursday, February 19, bringing unexpected treasures and incredible deals to the community. This will be the 26th Value Village store in Washington.

Through its unique business model of purchasing, reselling and recycling donated items, Value Village provides sustainable funding to nonprofit organizations, offers communities a smart way to shop, and saves more than 650 million pounds of goods from landfills each year – making Value Village one of the largest recyclers of used goods in the world.

“We’re thrilled to bring our good deeds and great deals to local residents,” said Cheryl Brincefield, Value Village store manager.

“We take great pride in working with our nonprofit partners and in looking after the environment, while at the same time providing our customers with the best selection and shopping experience of any secondhand store. Everyone likes to find a great deal, and people really love to support their local communities. We make it easy to do both.”

The new store opens in conjunction with a rising thrift shopping trend, which is one of the fastest growing retail segments. Lifestyle, economy and social trends have contributed to the growth, including the popularity of do-it-yourself projects, a renewed interest in vintage clothing, and importantly, environment and budget-conscious consumers. Value Village stores have been rapidly growing in popularity among all types of shoppers – ranging from families on a budget to six-figure professionals.

Carrying everything from clothing and accessories, to housewares, electronics and more, Value Village is no ordinary secondhand store and has more than 100,000 high quality items on its sales floor at any given time. Customers will find a fresh stream of value-priced goods including authentic vintage finds and name brand fashions, with 10,000 new items stocked to the floor daily.

Despite this large volume of merchandise, shoppers won’t spend hours shuffling through stacks of items. Value Village is clean, bright and well-organized with racks of men’s, women’s and children’s clothing sorted by category and size, and shelves of housewares, books and even electronics neatly labeled for an enjoyable shopping experience. Average prices include $3.99 - $7.99 for most men’s shirts; women’s dresses from $7.99 - $14.99; shoes and handbags for $7.99 on average; and books from $0.69.

And where does Value Village get this impressive inventory? Each store partners with local nonprofits, paying the organizations for used merchandise collected at Community Donation Centers located on-site at Value Village stores or donated directly to the nonprofits. The new Issaquah store’s Community Donation Center, which is now open, provides an easy, convenient way for residents to donate gently used clothing and household items.

In the Issaquah community, Value Village has teamed up with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Puget Sound and Issaquah Schools Foundation. The partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters supports the organization’s mission to provide children facing adversity with strong and enduring, professionally supported one-to-one mentorships.

From February 17-21, donations made at Value Village will also support Issaquah Schools Foundation’s Basic Student Needs Program. The Basic Student Needs Program assists students in need with clothing, dental care, breakfast food, school supplies, and other basic needs that prevent students from learning.

Located at 5530 East Lake Sammamish SE, grand opening festivities begin Thursday, February 19, starting at 8:45 a.m. with a ribbon cutting ceremony. The new location will be open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Fuel for the fireworks As Snoqualmie debates public safety and individual rights, let’s look at the rules already on the books

H

owever you may feel about fireworks, love them, or hate them, well, I completely agree

with you.

As a pet owner, I cringe at the noise, choke on the smoke, and pretty much dread the week before Independence Day, because of the people who just can’t wait to set off their fireworks. Have you ever tried to get a terrified hundred-pound dog out the door for his nightly toilette when the world is exploding around you? Or ever noticed how many more missing dog and cat posters appear at the post office after July 4?

As a home owner, even with a fouryear-old metal roof, I hold my breath when I see the sparks fall in my neighborhood, or watch a floating lantern rising into the sky, wondering where it will come down, and if it will have enough of a spark left to ruin someone’s night.

I was even that kid, the one everyone has a story about, who stepped on a sparkler and burned her foot. I loved fireworks a little too much, and got too close.

But I still love fireworks. There’s the ooh and ahh element, and getting together with people to watch. There’s the science behind it — what makes those beautiful colors as it burns?

We have a surprising amount of light pollution in the Valley, so not many opportunities for watching shooting stars and such, unless you CAROL LADWIG go for the man-made Valley Record kind.

Editor They are beautiful and meaningful, whether you are celebrating the birth of a country, or the fact that you get a day off to celebrate.

The Snoqualmie City Council is considering a ban on aerial fireworks right now, prompted by a house fire last year.

Based on the public comments made to the council, and the conversation that sprung up following the fire last year, there are two issues at the heart of the debate, safety and individual rights.

Safety people say it’s a bad idea to let people have a party, maybe a few drinks, and then set off small explosives in a dense residential area.

Rights people say it’s a bad idea to restrict their responsible use of fireworks, and point out that it was an illegal firework that caused last year’s fire.

Snoqualmie’s council is expected to vote on an aerial fireworks ban Feb. 9, and discussion has begun on the city presenting a public fireworks show by a pyrotechnics company, as an alternative.

Meanwhile, Carnation has had a July 4 celebration for many, many years, including a big public show. But they also faced this issue, and had this same conversation.

In 2001 and in 2003, the city and surrounding area suffered several fireworks-caused fires. The causes varied, but all were illegal; one was caused by fireworks discharged outside the allowed hours, one by an illegal firework, and one in 2003, by a groundbased effect that had been made illegal the previous year by a city ban on all fireworks but sparklers. Since then, the city has also banned shake roofs on all new construction, as a precaution.

So, the city that already had a public event, and a big fireworks display, still had problems with fireworks.

It reminds me of something Snoqualmie’s Fire Chief, Mark Correira said. All year, firefighters focus on safety and education about fire prevention, but then it suddenly changes.

“There’s one day a year when we say, ‘OK, let’s throw fire in the sky, and hope nothing bad happens,’” he said.

Right there, in one sentence, he sums up both sides of the debate. We all hope nothing bad happens, but it is only once a year. People have the right to celebrate, but not the right to harm someone else or damage their property.

Before I put a stake in the ground on this issue, though, I have to wonder about a few things. What would happen if everyone just followed the rules that we already have?

If everyone checked to make sure they bought only legal fireworks, and if they then limited their fireworks fun to the designated hours, then maybe we’d hear fewer sirens on July 4.

I’d certainly see my cat that week, without having to look under the bed.

Correction The city of Snoqualmie did not allocate human services funding to the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital, as stated in last week’s paper. That information was erroneously included in the original news release from the city of Snoqualmie.

PAST

This week in Snoqualme Valley history

Thursday, Feb. 1, 1990 • Fire District 27 (Fall City) has requested that the Public Disclosure Commission investigate whether Fire District 10 (IssaquahCarnation) violated state law during a recent petition campaign.

At issue is a District 10 bid for a partial merger involving property south of Ames Lake. This area, approximately 3.5 square miles, is presently served by the Fall City district. However, the property lies between the two “halves” of District 10 created when the Issaquah and Carnation-area districts were united in last November’s elections.

• It’s not easy to find people in this area who are in favor of a prison being built a few miles east of North Bend. The local opposition group now has over 1,500 signatures behind its stance. The few who do favor it seem to be of the mind that, granted, there is a need for more facilities in the state, and they have to be built somewhere. Governor Gardner is saying the same thing. Gardner and Department of Corrections Secretary Chase Riveland have proposed new legislation that would enable a new Correctional Facility Siting Authority to exercise eminent domain to site such necessary public facilities.

• Carnation’s Sewer Task Force will meet Feb. 5 to select alternatives for further evaluation in the wastewater facility-planning project. Both Carnation and Fall City are in the midst of planning with King County’s community development office for future sewer systems. Carnation is approximately three weeks ahead of Fall City in the process; a similar meeting to the above is scheduled for Feb. 27 in Fall City.

Thursday, Jan. 28, 1965 • An ambitious and exciting undertaking, a Snoqualmie Falls Summer Theater, is about to be launched by the Christian Players, an outgrowth of the highly successful Passion Play annualy presented in Fall City. A series of organizational meetings already has laid much of the groundwork for the thrilling new venture which would establish a full-fledged tourist attraction for the Snoqualmie Valley. Projected plans call for a natural-setting amphitheatre for presentation of Biblical and religious drama, a children’s theatre, a retreat center and a picnic and camping area.

• Mr. Bert Roselair of Snoqualmie is in critical condition at Providence Hospital in Seattle, where he underwent brain surgery on Friday following an accident at his home workshop. Mr. Roselair suffered extensive head injuries on a table saw some time Thursday morning. He was found unconscious, by Mr. Loyal Hall of Snoqualmie, with whom he regularly rode to work.

Find a fitness routine just for you at Mt. Si Sports + Fitness It was rainy and cold as the flood waters rose around Snoqualmie and North Bend last month. Fortunately, the flood never reached Mt. Si Sports + Fitness, located between Snoqualmie and North Bend off S.R. 202 on Boalch Avenue.

“We’re probably the only folks in town who don’t mind seeing the rains fall, although sometimes it can be little bit much,” Lynn Grisham said to her business partner Ben Cockman, who agreed.

He agreed, saying, “We like warm, sunny weather as much as anyone, but our club is such a welcome reprieve from the elements. The weather adds value to us.”

In 2003, Lynn and Ben founded Mt. Si Sports + Fitness with a plan to create a fitness center offering an affordable, inviting and unpretentious environment, with something for everyone.

“We want to have a club that offers a broad range of appeal. Whether you simply want to walk on a treadmill while watching TV or train for the Ultimate Fitness Challenge, this is the club for you!” Ben said.

“We have hard-core athletes here with lots of experience as well as folks who have come to us having no idea how to exercise at all,” says Lynn. “No matter! You will find a safe and comfortable environment and all the resources you need to get it done. We have members of all ages, shapes and sizes and they include a lot of very nice people. They bring good energy to our gym.”

“The reality is, those members who learn about and embrace the principles of exercise and commit to being consistent, they usually find success,” says Ben. “For us as gym owners, personal trainers or class instructors, playing a role in the process of helping someone be successful in achieving their goals is most gratifying. Exercise can truly make a difference in someone’s life and a one-hour workout is only 4 percent of your day!”

Are you interested in learning to exercise and use the gym but have little experience? No problem. When you join the club you receive a free introductory session with a personal trainer (a $55 value).

The trainers at Mt. Si Sports + Fitness are experienced professionals who can help formulate and implement an exercise program for you.

It is important to adopt an approach to exercise that fits your lifestyle. Continuous effort, not strength or intelligence, is the key to unlocking our true potential.

Motivation is what gets you started, but habit is what keeps you going. Consistency wins.

Personal trainers include Monica Lynne, Kelley Mast, Michael Constantin and Washington middle-weight boxing champion Mike Gavronski.

If you want to get fit and meet new people at the same time, consider taking group fitness classes. Beneficial for introverts and extroverts alike, group fitness classes are suitable for anyone.

Many people mistakenly think of group fitness as a room full of women and men in sweatbands doing aerobics, circa 1980, or Richard Simmons and Jane Fonda.

Times have changed! Mt. Si Sports + Fitness’ group fitness classes include yoga, sculpt 101, core strength, spin cycling, Fatigue Friday, boot camp, the ever-popular Zumba and others.

Yoga classes are among the hidden gems at the club.

Classes are conducted in a warm studio. The program includes alignment yoga, Hatha fusion yoga, yoga for athletes, as well as basic and power yoga. Instructors are Carlye Lowell, Nina Cambern, Josephine Silverwolf and Samantha Pairis. Additional specialty classes offered include women’s self-defense, spiritual selfimprovement, ‘Just Eat’, and mobility and breathing workshops.

Here is what some members have to say about some of the classes and instructors at Mt. Si Sports + Fitness:

Above, Mount Si Sports + Fitness staff members, and right, club owners Lynn Grisham and Ben Cockman.

“Core strength is a great workout. Monica does a very good job. I really look forward to the companionship and laughter of each class,” said Anita Wambaugh.

“Sculpt 101 has been perfect for me! Diann and Susan are amazing; they make the class quite challenging and they’re always changing it so the workout routine stays fresh. This is muscle toning at its best,” said Katie Sjoboen.

“Zumba is a blast! I always leave class feeling good and it is a lot of fun… you barely notice how hard you are exercising! Dan and Heidi make Zumba very inviting and comfortable for everyone, especially beginners. I truly look forward to every class,” said Dena Wright.

“Carlye’s basic and power yoga classes are superb. Her knowledge of poses, explanation of the benefits and safety concerns with modifications is superb. I look forward to the yoga but more important is the inspiration I feel from these classes,” said Debbie Sanchez.

Mt. Si Sports + Fitness has been voted ‘Best Place to Exercise’ in the Valley each year since it opened 12 years ago. Perhaps it’s time for you to drop by for a tour and see why.

What are you waiting for? It’s a new year and time for a new you. There has never been a better time to join the club now, while the $75 enrollment fee is reduced to $35; monthly dues are only $45.

In August, we will have lived in the Valley for 40 years. Both of our children graduated from Mount Si High School and we feel fortunate to live in District 410, where the administrators and faculty take their charge seriously.

It is normal for us, as senior citizens, to feel we have paid our dues to the local schools and time for us to lean back and protect our ‘fixed’ income. That is dangerous thinking, with serious consequences.

Education is so critical to success in life and strong healthy communities.

We owe up-to-date school infrastructure and state-ofthe-art technology to our grandchildren’s generation and to the community we call home.

Current school bond is not the answer I believe taxpayers have an obligation to support necessary school improvements. However, we should also demand responsible

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

spending, since we are the ones asked to bear the tax burden; in this case, $244.

Without argument, our school district needs an elementary school. Enrollment projections reflect our growth and elementary schools are the hardest hit.

Unfortunately, the $35 million needed to build a new elementary school is just a small piece of the bond.

My real concern is with the largest portion of the bond, $190,000,000 to rebuild Mount Si High School. The proposed bond does not address the projected growth beyond eight years of the school opening.

We may see another megabond in the next decade to address these shortcomings: Not economical — The plan only increases high school capacity by 200 students. At a price tag of $190,000,000, while increasing the school portion of our property taxes (on average) by 50 percent, compared to 2014 rates.

The current high school is structurally sound; it was heavily renovated 20 years ago. It could use a refresh, but not for nearly $200 million. The board wants to move the successful freshman campus back to the high school, yet keep the freshmen in their own building; $190 million to move them one block?

Not long-term or comprehensive — The district’s demographer projects high school enrollment to be within 200 students of maximum capacity on opening day, and eight years after opening, it will be at capacity, with no room to add portables. I do not understand how this translates into a long-term, comprehensive solution.

Inadequate land, parking and fields —Mount Si High School is situated on 30 acres.

New high schools require 40 to 50 acres to provide enough building space, parking, and sports fields.

Building a much larger school on an undersized parcel leaves us short on parking, and doesn’t provide adequate sports fields for the number of students and teams needed to support a mega-high-school sports program.

The land surrounding the school is all residential, homes in the floodway, leaving no room for growth.

Lack of teacher support — Last spring, teachers were shown the new high school proposal and their feedback was overwhelmingly against it. Additionally, the teachers union has not endorsed the bond.

We need a true long-term solution; unfortunately this is not it. Please vote No, and let’s ask the board to remove

the high school from the bond proposal until a better long-term solution is found.

Time to invest in schools and students As current and former members of the Snoqualmie Valley School District Board of Directors, we are united in our endorsement of the bond measure being placed before voters on the February ballot.

Collectively, our service on the board spans nearly 30 years, with some of us serving as far back as the 1980s.

During the past 30 years, we have seen our district grow, change, and develop into one of the best in the state of Washington. In fact, the Snoqualmie Valley schools have been nationally recognized for providing quality education. This bond measure is critical to ensuring that we maintain our strong schools and make them even better.

For many years now, our district has also enjoyed tremendous levels of support from the community. This

bond proposition is another opportunity for the community to demonstrate its support of the schools and the students in them.

It has been over 10 years since a school bond measure of significant proportion has been approved here in the Valley. Consequently, our facilities needs are now at a critical level and our schools need your support to address those needs.

Please take time to learn about the bond proposition by visiting the SVSD website, www.svsd410.org.

It’s time to once again invest in our schools, our kids, and our community.

Please join us in voting Yes for this important measure.

Bond improves safety, schools Local firefighters work hard to keep the Snoqualmie Valley community safe. This is why we feel that the safety and education resources for Snoqualmie Valley students are a high priority. We encourage voters to support Proposition 1 with a Yes vote on Feb. 10.

This bond will provide funds to make safety and security improvements at Mount Si High School, as well at all other school district facilities. Modernizing and expanding Mount Si High School will benefit students in the community by flood-proofing the building, making seismic and other safety upgrades, improving the building’s security design, and enhancing learning spaces to better prepare students for the future.

Like my parents before me, and my grandpa before them, I have been a Snoqualmie Valley student for my entire education. I am proud to be from a district that promotes excellence and strives to prepare students for future success.

As a student, I have often taken things like adequate facilities, reasonable class size, and safety for granted. My peers and I are able to focus solely on our studies rather than how to get noticed in a classroom over-filled with students. We have been the beneficiaries of a foresighted district, backed by a community that made education a priority, and for that, I thank you.

I fear the students of tomorrow may not be so fortunate.

Classes are filling fast and buildings are growing old. The solution being proposed will address these concerns. With the addition of another elementary school and the rebuilding of Mount Si, which would reinstate the third middle school, the district would be well prepared for current needs and future growth. Most importantly, it would ensure Snoqualmie Valley students continue to have access to the best possible public education.

On behalf of the students who will soon be sitting in the chairs I once sat in, please support quality of education by voting Yes for the school bond.

A force in the paint

Bellevue Bulldogs sophomore back on the floor after an early season injury

By SHAUN SCOTT Bellevue Reporter

Bellevue Bulldogs sophomore forward Anthony McLaughlin couldn’t wait to get back on the floor after a one-month hiatus.

McLaughlin, who suffered a strained groin against the Highline Thunderbirds on Dec. 14, returned to the Bulldogs’ lineup against Shoreline on Jan. 10. A week later, McLaughlin scored 18 points and secured 12 rebounds in the Bulldogs’ 85-79 win against the Skagit Valley Cardinals on Jan. 17.

“It is awesome to be back out on the court with my teammates. It was so hard watching these guys play and not being able to contribute,” McLaughlin said. “We have such a great group of guys. Being able to get back out there on the court is a lot of fun.”

McLaughlin said camaraderie and team unity drive the Bulldogs.

“From the very beginning, we all bought into coach (Jeremy) Eggers system. We play team basketball and that is the biggest key to this team’s success,” McLaughlin said.

“We don’t have a star. On any given night any one of us can step up for our team. I feel like that is what makes us so special.”

McLaughlin throughly enjoys playing collegiate basketball just 19 miles from the town he grew up in.

He is a 2012 graduate of Mount Si High School in Snoqualmie.

“My family makes it to almost every single game. They’re awesome supporters,” he said. “Being that close to home is great.”

Recently the Bellevue Reporter had an opportunity to ask McLaughlin a few questions about his life away from the basketball court.

Bellevue Reporter: What are your favorite eateries in Bellevue?

Anthony McLaughlin: I would have to go with The Cheesecake Factory, Tokyo Steakhouse and Joey’s.

BR: What is your favorite movie of all time?

AM: “Remember the Titans.” I have probably seen that movie more than any other in my entire life.

BR: What is your biggest pet peeve?

AM: When someone isn’t working hard.

BR: What is your favorite dinner dish?

AM: Some kind of steak.

BR: What is something unique about you that nobody would know?

AM: I still watch Spongebob SquarePants. It is one of my favorite TV shows.

BR: Where is your dream vacation destination?

AM: Somewhere that is tropical and somewhere that is sunny.

BR: Who was your favorite sports team growing up?

AM: The Seattle SuperSonics. I went to so many games when I was kid. When they left it was a big disappointment.

but so was the chance to design an app for a mobile device.

On this team, all seventh and eighth graders and friends working together on other technology problems in the Technology Student Association club, it turned out to be the challenge that drove them.

All six boys talk at once when asked about the project that won them a Best in State ranking in the nationwide competition.

“Per the challenge, we just needed to come up with the concept,” said Connor Aksama.

“And in the modern world, we figured that not a lot of people volunteer,” said LaTurner “Jake (Tisdale) and I are in National Junior Honor Society, and we needed to do volunteer hours, too,” Kristiansen said.

So with all that in mind, along with the geography of the Valley, the boys created a plan for their iVolunteer app.

“It pinpoints places to volunteer,” explained LaTurner, and uses GPS data to show a user those

places by their distance.

It also considers things specific to this Valley.

“For people who have bad cell coverage, we use a smaller information packet,” explained Vivek Patel.

They solve a lot of problems with their invented app, and they acknowledge that they may have created one with their choice of names. The “I” in iVolunteer is a reference to the first person, not to the Apple platform prefix.

“It’s on Android,” said Patel, explaining how the name came about.

As an afterthought, he said, “Husein (Syed), you’re the lawyer.”

They shouldn’t need a lawyer any time soon, though. The app itself doesn’t exist just yet.

Look for it in the next year, though, because after winning Best in State with just the concept — and a well-produced video — they say they plan to continue working on the app into the next school year.

Aksama and Syed will still be at Tolt, but the group agreed that the others will pursue the concept in the Cedarcrest High School TSA program.

Shopping locally is important to us, which is why we have partnered with several terrific local vendors: Pioneer Coffee, Steve’s Doughnuts and Rose Ridge Café & Deli. We also have a fantastic staff of experienced, friendly baristas that you will enjoy getting to know. Some unique items we offer are “Bacon In A Bag” (yes, just 4 pieces of delicious hot bacon!), “Bull Shakes” (Red Bull frappe) and “Muscle Mochas” (iced protein drink with 2 espresso shots). We want the locals to know that weekday traffic at the Interchange is not bad, come on out and give us a shot!

New look, shared outlook Under new ownership, remodeled George’s Bakery will look new, but keep the same community feel

By CAROL LADWIG Editor

For the last month or so, North Bend has been different, missing something, but that changes this week. George’s Bakery, closed Jan. 5 for renovations, will re-open on Wednesday, all new, but almost all the same.

The pastry destination and lunch stop on North Bend Way has been part of the city’s downtown for almost 90 years, and it really didn’t need changing, said new owner Steve Teodosiadis. He should know, too; he’s been shopping at George’s since 1983.

“I know George’s Bakery from when George was here!” he says.

George Macris, the namesake of George’s Buttercrust Bakery, started running the bakery in 1964, and operated it for several decades. A lot of people remembered George, and those people are the reason Teodosiadis wants to keep the bakery going, just as it was.

“The staff is going to stay, the products are all going to be the same,” said Teodosiadis. “We’re not changing the recipes.”

Joe McKeown, the baker and former owner is also staying, but his wife and bakery co-owner, Kathy Stokesberry, has officially retired.

People will notice a few changes, but little that wasn’t there all along.

A dropped ceiling was removed, and a row of windows along the original ceiling are now uncovered. They were part of the original construction, Teodosiadis said, based on photos of the building he looked up at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum in North Bend.

“The pictures showed that the windows had to be there,” he said, and they were probably walled over, both inside and out, some time after the 1940s.

The “new” windows will provide more light in the bakery and, even though the bakery is surrounded by other buildings, a scenic view, too.

Top: Georgia and Steve Teodosiadis, new owners of George’s Bakery, take a break from renovations for a photo. Middle: The Alpine facade of George’s Bakery was removed earlier this month during a remodel, to reveal a row of windows, right, from the original 1928 construction.

“You can see Mount Si out the windows, almost all the way back,” said Teodosiadis, stepping off the distance from the storefront to the counters, mostly still in place at the back of the shop.

Although the bakery gained a view, it also lost something, the Alpine façade that had been a prominent feature of many North Bend businesses in a move to increase tourism to the city.

“It was the last one that was still around from that effort in the ‘70s,” said Teodosiadis.

Inside, there’s new paint, new wainscoting, and a bit of furniture rearrangement, too. Some of the counters have been moved and a window display will be replaced by more seating.

There will also be a subtle change to the bakery’s name.

“My wife is Georgia, so it will be called Georgia’s Bakery,” Teodosiadis said.

The Teodosiadis family had already owned the George’s Bakery building for about a year, buying it from Jean Macris, the widow of George and the owner of the adjoining Nature’s Marketplace. They hadn’t planned on running a bakery until McKeown and Stokesberry said they wanted to retire.

“I wanted to keep it a bakery,” Teodosiadis said. “It was really important to us. We couldn’t find anyone willing to do it, so…”

So he and Georgia, along with their four children, ages 23 to 12, decided to take it on. Neither of them are professional cooks, said Teodosiadis, but “first and foremost, I’m a good eater.”

They, like Macris, are also Greek, and are considering adding such Greek specialties Spanakopita, and loukomades to the menu, eventually.

For now, though, the menu is not going to look any different.

BAKERY FROM 13 “The doughnuts are good, the maple bars are good, the apple fritters are good, the quiche is good,” he said. “None of that is going away.”

As Teodosiadis talks about the future, a small group walks by on the sidewalk.

There’s scaffolding over the entire storefront, and two men are at work on the façade, but they peek in the window anyway, hopeful that the bakery is open.

“Just being closed, you can tell people miss it,” Teodosiadis said.

He’s seen a lot of that kind of thing, and is anxious to get the bakery re-opened.

Last week, he said, a cycling club rode up, and one of the members told him the Bakery was on their regular route. Later, a father and his young son came by. They told Teodosiadis that they always stopped at George’s on their way to the mountains, and again on their way back home.

Teodosiadis hopes the community approves of the renovations, and the continuity. He plans to participate in farmers markets and the upcoming Jazz Walk, as always, and to offer local products soon.

“To me, it’s not a drastic change,” he said. “We just want to be that bakery, where people come together.”

George’s Bakery is located at 127 West North Bend Way, (425) 888-0632.

The Cleaning Authority Snoqualmie Valley

Your Estate Broker

The Cleaning Authority is Locally Owned and Operated by Paul and Stephanie McMahon.

Asked to describe myself, I’d say I’m a country boy at heart. I’m from a small town in Mississippi. The kind of town where everyone knows your name and every adult is your parent. My memory of life as a boy is of hot summer days playing in open fields, riding around on my great grandfather’s tractor, and doing what to this day has become one of my greatest passions… fishing! I love fishing. It’s a sport that’s taught me to be humble, the value of preparedness, patience and respect for nature.

I left the rural south to live closer to my grandparents in Southern California. This is where my exposure to buying and selling homes began. My grandfather was a real estate broker. He owned and operated a small office and because it was located within walking distance from home, I could often be found there helping out answering the telephone. He enjoyed this work because he believed he made a difference in people’s lives. My grandfather also owned homes and at times worked tirelessly as his own handyman and gardener. I vividly recall getting up early Saturday mornings to help him go cut a lawn or repair a broken fence. Like him, I possess a strong work ethic.

I came to Washington to attend college. After earning my bachelor’s degree in communication from Trinity Lutheran College in Sammamish, I decided to make Washington my home. It’s a place that’s enabled me to combine my worlds growing up into one. I joined John L. Scott to make a difference in people’s lives… a difference that I hope will enhance their happiness and well-being.

Along with their housecleaning business Paul and Stephanie take a great deal of pride in their professional, highly trained and, dedicated housecleaning staff.

Ready to grow Sno Falls President/CEO has big plans for Valley credit union

By CAROL LADWIG Editor

Maybe he’s joking, but when Tim Williams says he doesn’t sleep a lot, it sounds believable — he’s too busy. The banker and entrepreneur has spent the past six months, assisted by a staff of 25 mostly longterm employees, pushing out innovations and new products at Sno Falls Credit Union. He and staff will be doing more of the same through June, when he marks his first anniversary as the president and chief executive officer of the credit union.

All of that work—a recently completed rebranding effort, the launch of a new website in December, the new checking account offering this month, the new computer system to be implemented in February, and the updated online banking system and mobile banking app expected in March—is really just a good start, though.

“These things are just basically getting us caught up to where we need to be,” says Williams, a career

goes back to the members in different forms,” said Williams, including larger dividends, lower loan rates, and no-fee services.

Updates like the ones now in play at Sno Falls will help keep the facility competitive, but they aren’t always welcome, Williams says.

“Change can be difficult,” he says, but “everything we’re doing is for the benefit of our membership.”

None of the changes will involve staff, or locations (there are three branches, at the North Bend QFC, the Ridge Market on Snoqualmie Ridge, and the main office on Meadowbrook) although many of them should improve the organization’s

overall productivity.

The new computer system, for instance, is “…going to allow us to be even better at service,” Williams said.

“It’s going to allow us to be faster and more nimble.”

It will also enable the facility, now well over the regional economic struggles of 2008, to expand.

“We’re ready to start growing again, growing the asset base of the credit union, growing the membership,” said Williams. But rest assured, he says, “We’ll always be Valley focused.”

Williams was hired last June to replace retiring CEO Linda Larion.

After serving eight years in the Navy, he made his life in Washington, getting a degree in finance from St. Martin’s University, then serving in various leadership roles at Hometown National Bank, KeyBank, Verity Credit Union, and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. He also owned a Ford dealership.

Every day, he considers new possibilities for Sno Falls Credit Union, too. It’s strategic planning, tempered by business realities.

“Some of the projects we’re doing take a year or a year and a half to do,” he says, “but we don’t have a year or a year and a half.”

The modern world, he says, has changed banking for the better, in many ways, but it’s created challenges, too. For the 58-yearold Valley institution, the challenge is keeping their 6,000-plus customers happy —they are the owners, after all—while keeping up a stiff competition with other financial institutions.

“It’s a balancing act, to be able to continue to offer the products and services that our older customers want, and the modern conveniences that younger customers want,” Williams said.

Credit unions are owned by the members who bank there, and so, are not-for profit, like other banks.

D’Ambrosio named permanent Twin Falls principal

We believe every child should be treated the way we would like our own children to be treated.

Jeff D’Ambrosio, who served for the past six months as interim principal at Twin Falls Middle School, was named to the position permanently Thursday, Jan. 22.

“I have been impressed with Jeff ’s performance through my observations of his work and the many discussions that I’ve had with him….His passion for teaching and learning, student-first focus, and ability to work productively with parents and staff are just a few of the qualities that I believe Jeff brings to the principalship,” Snoqualmie Valley Superintendent Joel Aune wrote, in a message to the school.

Powerful in purple

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

Relay for Life Snoqualmie Valley launches season with Paint the Valley Purple, Kickoff Feb. 10

Don’t be surprised if you see a lot more purple in the Valley starting next week.

Sure, the Seahawks’ blue and green will still be around, but for a couple of weeks, anyway, purple will probably be a lot more prominent.

Paint the Valley Purple, an awareness campaign by the Snoqualmie Valley Relay for Life, is a two-week event designed to get people talking about Relay for Life, by putting purple, the Relay’s signature color, on display wherever they can, Feb. 1 to 14.

“Our goal is to make it even bigger than last year,” Jorgensen said, as she planned for the 2015 Relay for Life. “And we’re offering to paint people’s windows for them.”

The purple lights, ribbons and even window paintings, offered for a small donation this year, lead up to the Relay Kickoff event, starting at 5 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 10, at the North Bend Theater.

Come to the kickoff for a small sample of what the Relay is like -- gatherings of friends, live entertainment, inspirational speakers, food and drink, and one unifying goal, fighting cancer.

“It’s not always about the money,” says Jorgensen. While the event is a fundraiser for cancer research, she says, “It also becomes a very hopeful, family event for people.”

For teams that are already organized, the kickoff gives them a head start on the fundraising, too. Proceeds from the event are divided equally among the teams that register at the kickoff. So far, Jorgensen knows of 11 teams that have formed, which is a good start on the organizers goal for the 2015 Relay.

“Our goal is 45 teams this year,” Jorgensen said. Last year, they set a goal of 40 teams — up from 20 — and got 41 teams, so this year’s goal is just for growth.

Teams can have from five to 20 people.

The fundraising goal remains $100,000, Jorgensen said, and every year, the group gets closer to reaching it. Last year’s Relay brought in $87,000 and the 2013 event, $54,000.

In addition to the entry fee, $10 for the party and a 7 p.m. showing of “The Fault in Our Stars,” the kickoff raises funds through sales of luminarias honoring those who have or had cancer.

Relay for Life of Snoqualmie Valley is set for July 11 and 12 at Torguson Park in North Bend.

Expect Seahawks to use group effort to defend Patriots’ Gronkowski

By JOHN BOYLE

Everett Herald Columnist

Despite what you might have heard from Seattle cornerback Jeremy Lane last week, New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has the undivided attention of the Seahawks heading into Super Bowl XLIX. “Today I went back to a cut-up of Rob just to check him out, to see if there’s some things we could help our guys out on, because he’s such an effective player,” Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll said Monday.

“He really has all of the elements that you’re looking for from a big-time tight end, every aspect of it. I was looking real close again just to see if there’s a way to find some approach that we could slow him down. ...

They will get the ball to him, it’s just how effective will it be? And we’ll try to do a terrific job of it, because if we don’t, he can control the football game.”

One of the best matchups in a Super Bowl full of them figures to be Gronkowski against Seattle’s strong safety/ damager of souls Kam Chancellor. But while I hate to be the one to ruin a juicy story line, Sunday’s game won’t really be a matchup between “Gronk” and “Bam Bam” unless the Seahawks go way off script.

Yes, Chancellor will cover and/or try to tackle New England’s All-Pro tight end plenty, but so too will linebackers K.J. Wright and Bobby Wanger and free safety Earl Thomas, to name a few. Think back to Seattle’s playoff game against New Orleans last season; there was no single player responsible for taking Jimmy Graham out of the game, it was a group effort.

It has been discussed so often now it’s almost easy to take for granted as the Seahawks once again were the best defensive team in football. But part of what makes Seattle’s defense so dominant is its simplicity. With very few exceptions, Seattle’s defense isn’t out to fool you; instead the Seahawks line up, either playing cover three or man-to-man coverage, and just try to out-execute and out-hit you.

Even when they’re facing one of the most dominant players in the NFL this season.

“It’s clear cut, it’s basic, it’s simple,” Chancellor said. “Whether it’s me playing in the box, whether it’s me playing mancoverage, whether it’s me playing robber, whether it’s cover three, it’s just plain and simple rules. Beyond that, it’s just reading and reacting, studying film, it’s how teams are going to attack you. That’s it.”

And make no mistake, the times Chancellor, arguably the best strong safety in the game, and Gronkowski, who had 1,124 yards and 12 touchdowns this season, do face off, it will be must-see TV. Asked what would happen if those two physical players collided at full speed, Richard Sherman said, “I don’t know, but I’ll be sitting there with popcorn.”

Or as Wright puts it, “It would be a classic matchup. Our best against their best.”

But what it won’t be is a matchup that is forced on Chancellor down after down.

That’s not how the Seahawks operate. In the eyes of Carroll, one of the best defensive minds in the game, the best defense is a fast, physical and disciplined one that doesn’t require too much thinking in the heat of the moment.

“We have a simple scheme that we play with on defense, because we found that it allows these guys that we have to really demonstrate the wonderful stuff that they can bring to the football game,” Carroll said. “So that’s why we’ve done it and how we’ve done it in all phases.”

As for Lane’s “I actually don’t think he’s that good” comment about Gronkowski, it obviously wasn’t the smartPete Carroll, est thing to say. Well, Seahawks head coach unless Lane’s goal was to earn some notoriety before the Super Bowl, in which case, mission accomplished. But I don’t think Lane was saying it to be malicious, but rather that he was just reflecting the extreme confidence — the borderline arrogance, if you prefer — that helps make this historically great defense tick.

It isn’t that the Seahawks don’t think Gronkowski is a good player — “great” was the word repeatedly used by just about every member of Seattle’s defense besides Lane — it’s that the Seahawks truly believe they are better than any offense they’ll face, if they are taking care of their business.

The way these players see the world, if everyone just does their job, whether that’s Chancellor or Wright or Thomas or anyone else dealing with Gronkowski, that will be enough.

“We worry about what we have to do,” Thomas said. “We worry about our job and it is just the personnel and the matchups. We match up very well in this game, so we are going to focus in our job and own our role. I want to be the best free safety for the Seattle Seahawks and we will see what happens at the end of the game.”

CAR MAINTENANCE TIPS Dirty Air Filter

Semi-clogged air filters hurt fuel economy for the same reason you don’t like to run with a potato in your mouth. The question is, when is your filter dirty? Under a Norman Rockwell schedule of small-town errand running and church duty, an air filter might not see much grit. But grimy city surface streets or just looking at a dirt road on a map are often enough to overwhelm air filters. This one is about conditions. If you go near dirt, the air filter may need changing twice as often as the schedule calls for. Your Dealer should inspect your air filter on every visit, follow their recommendations.
