hile most of her peers are going to be graduating from high school in three or so years, Gabi Sciuchetti will be accepting a different kind of diploma – a bachelor’s degree from the University of Washington.

Currently, Gabi is a sophomore at UW based on the amount of credits she has earned, and she’s Gabi Sciuchetti barely 15 years old. On top of being four years ahead on her education, she also made the dean’s list for the 2014 fall quarter, earning at least a 3.5 grade point average.

Gabi, from Covington, attended the Early Entrance Program at The Halbert and Nancy Robinson Center for Young Scholars at UW during the 2013-2014 school year.

This transition school enabled her to skip high school and start earning college credits in spring 2014.

After the program finished, she immediately dove head-first into

Vaccine bill aims to eliminate personal objection exemption

BY REBECCA GOURLEY rgourley@maplevalleyreporter.com

The state House Committee on Health Care and Wellness voted 10-5 Feb. 18 in favor of a bill that would make it more difficult for parents to make their kids exempt from getting vaccinated in Washington.

Currently, state law allows parents to not vaccinate their school-aged children for medical reasons, a personal objection or religious beliefs.

This bill would eliminate the “philo-

sophical or personal objection” exemption option, but leave medical reasons and religious beliefs in place.

Rep. Chad Magendanz, R-Issaquah, is listed as a co-sponsor of the bill – HB 2009.

However, when asked about his reasons for supporting it, he said he was considering taking himself off the sponsor list.

“My initial inclination was to support it because of the potential public health risk of unvaccinated children to the elderly, infants and immunocompromised, but I’m discovering there’s also considerable (well-

documented) risk to our kids when they’re inoculated with live virus,” Magendanz said in an email.

Rep. June Robinson, D-Everett, is the primary sponsor of the bill and said at the committee meeting last Wednesday the bill is centered on public health.

“Ultimately it’s a bill about public’s health and the community’s health,” she said. “We all live in community and we Chad Magendanz need to think about how our actions affect those around us.”

The recent push for vaccination reform in several states is at least partially due to the recent outbreak of measles at Disneyland. That outbreak, which started in De-

After almost an hour of discussion, the Maple Valley City Council unanimously voted to refinance the city’s $2.9 million in general obligation bonds using a tax-exempt structure, keeping the status quo on the Legacy Site.

The tax-exempt option saves the city approxiMAPLE mately $47,000 VALLEY more than the other option of taxable bonds.

The tax-exempt option also keeps the current use restrictions on the land, which Councilman Layne Barnes said it is “just enough flexibility” for what the original plan was for the land.

“At the end of the day, based upon what the CAC’s (Citizen’s Advisory Committee) report was… I have every belief that flexibility exists with the tax-exempt situation,” Barnes said.

Councilman Dana Parnello agreed with Barnes.

“One option gives us more flexibility, the other maintains the flexibility we’ve had.” [ more COUNCIL page 5 ]

In 2013, measles cases were slightly below 200, nationwide, according to the CDC. Last year, the number of measles cases more than tripled from June Robinson the previous year. So far, 154 cases of measles have been reported across 17 states and Washington, D.C. this year.

CITY OF COVINGTON NOTICES CITY COUNCIL NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 2015 – 7:00 PM NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that pursuant to Chapter 35A.63.220 of the Revised Code of Washington the Covington City Council will a hold a public hearing on a proposed Ordinance which extends interim zoning regulations for the production, processing, and retailing of recreational marijuana, at its regular meeting on Tuesday, March 10, 2015, at 7:00 p.m., to be held in the Council Chambers at Covington City Hall, 16720 SE 271st Street, Covington, WA.

Lake Wilderness Park dock replacement The dock replacement project is underway at Lake Wilderness Park.

The boat launch will have periodic closures the week of February 23-27 as the construction crew removes the old dock.

The project is expected to be complete in late March 2015.

In 2007, the city completed a master plan for Lake Wilderness Park and Lodge. That master plan identified ten different phases of work that were to be designed and built over a 20-year period.

With the recession affecting available funding for park development projects, starting in late 2007, this first phase of development at Lake Wilderness Park was put on hold for several years.

In 2011, a firm specializing in dock design was hired through a competitive recruitment process and a “condition survey” was completed late that year. The results of the survey showed that the dock and pilings were failing and needed to be replaced in the near future.

In 2012, a preliminary design was developed to replace the existing dock in a similar configuration and add a boat rental float.

In 2013, project staff completed a Joint Aquatic Resources Permit Application and filed that with the state of Washington to start the permitting process.

In late 2014, the project was put out to bid. The successful low bidder was Neptune Marine, LLC and the city entered into a contract with them to remove the existing dock and pilings, and construct the new dock.

But, she says, it’s not all about studying and classes, she also participates in several extracurricular activities. She’s an actor in the drama society for students with early acceptance and she’s also a mentor for students going through the transition school that she finished last spring.

She plans to apply for the engineering major at the end of the year, specifically aeronautical and astronautical engineering.

Gabi said she’s almost done with the prerequisites for her bachelor’s degree.

In addition to her studies, she’s also getting some hands-on experience.

They will just be attending different classes,” he said.

She also said she doesn’t think she’s missing out on anything by not having the high school experience her friends describe to her.

She said high school seems to be “mostly focused on sports and drama… and I get plenty of that here.”

Gabi still lives in Covington with her parents, Traci and Scott, and her younger brother, Antonio, who has ocular albinism, which makes him legally blind.

Gabi must have handed her brainpower down to her brother because he, like his sister, also skipped a grade in school. He’s a 10-year-old sixth grader.

The commute for Gabi to get to Seattle can be long, ranging from one to three hours on a metro bus, but it is necessary because she’s not yet old enough by UW’s standards – 17 – to live on campus, Scott said.

Her days are long, too.

Gabi wakes up at 6 a.m. most mornings and doesn’t return home until 7 or 8 p.m. That’s longer than most adults’ work days.

Being 15, Gabi won’t be getting a part time job during the summer. Instead, she’ll continue to take classes at UW, full time. She’s on track to graduate from UW in the spring of 2018, but if she continues to take classes over her summer breaks, she’ll most likely graduate even earlier.

as “herd immunity.”

In the Covington, Maple Valley and Black Diamond area, seven schools have a vaccination rate of less than 90 percent. One of those schools is a private middle school and has a

vaccination rate of 26.9 percent, according to Public Health of Seattle and King County. The exemption rate – either for medical, personal or religious reasons – for that school is 6.4 percent.

HB 2009 could move on to the House floor for a vote in the next couple weeks.

But, it will likely be met with some resistance because at least one cosponsor is reconsidering his stance on the bill.

Magendanz said, “Even if I stay on the bill, I may introduce a floor amendment to address some of the public’s concerns.”

realm of mechanical engineering and focuses on microspheres. The technology developed as a result of the research could potentially be used to create something like an invisibility cloak, she said.

In addition, Gabi has already completed a job shadow at an aeronautical company. Which, she said, should help her with her application for the engineering major.

Gabi plans to go to graduate school when she’s done at UW. But, there could be a roadblock in her way and it probably won’t be her grades.

Scott, Gabi’s dad, said she’s too young for a lot of the scholarships for grad school.

“She is going to have to come up with some scholarships for her school to continue,” he said. “She has the problem of being too young to apply for many of them as they are geared toward the high school seniors.”

Despite the fact that Gabi would start grad school a few months before her 18th birthday and all of her friends would be just starting college, she said she doesn’t feel like she’s jumping ahead of everyone.

Scott agreed and said he thinks it’s good timing.

“I kind of look at it this way, she will be starting a new college the same time as many kids her age start.

GREATER MAPLE VALLEY UNINCORPORATED AREA COUNCIL MEETING The Greater Maple Valley Unincorporated Area Council monthly meeting is from 7 to 9 p.m. on Monday, March 2 at the Maple Valley Fire Station. Guest speaker, Karen Wolf of the King County Office of Performance, Strategy and Budget, will provide information on the upcoming four-year major update to the King County Comprehensive Plan.

Members of the public are invited to attend and can address the area council on any local issue during an open comment period.

For years, when she lived at home, I nagged my oldest to shorten her shower time.

Her excuse when she was in high school was that her long hair took a lot of time between the washing and conditioning and she couldn’t possibly shorten it. I even bought a timer once so she would be more aware.

There was a time in those last few years when I got her down to about 17 minutes.

Now she has short hair, she lives with other people and her showers have increased in length. I asked her what she was doing in there. She said she was ruminating on the world.

Everyone uses their shower time for some sort of mental exercise: at 4 a.m. my husband uses it to wake up, my youngest uses it at 6 a.m. to help her face the reality that she has to go to school, I use it at 9 or 10 to Gretchen Leigh

Since my oldest daughter has been away at college, my water bill has gone down quite markedly, but when she was home this weekend, her shower seemed longer than normal.

I went into the bathroom and commented to her how long she had been in there and she said, “Yeah, they’ve gotten longer since I’ve lived away from home.”

How could that have happened when she lives in an apartment with three other girls? Apparently, none of the others shower in the morning like my daughter does. I personally don’t know many other people who don’t shower in the morning. I’ve never been able to get away with showering at night because I’m a hot sleeper. Meaning to say, I snuggle up under my down comforter and sweat the night away.

How not to share is new college curriculum go over the tasks I have to complete for the rest of the day. So I understand how solving the problems of the world would take exponentially longer than those other tasks.

However, I really thought living with three strangers rather than her family would help my daughter come out of her selfish, teenage ways of using more than her share. Not only has that plot failed miserably, but even her eating habits have become more self-involved.

She’s always been my child who would eat the leftovers. Now that she’s not living at home, in order to make sure food doesn’t get wasted, I only cook two or three times a week. I put a portion in the freezer for my college daughter (if she’s deemed it freezer-worthy) and the three of us who live in the house eat a lot of leftovers during the week either for dinner or lunches.

When my oldest came home Friday night, she im-

mediately hit up the fridge for leftovers as she hadn’t eaten dinner, then again in the morning for breakfast.

She poked fun at her sister for reheating only roasted potatoes, but not the pork I served with them, “Way to ruin everyone’s weekend,” she said.

This statement irritated me. Not only are her showers considerably longer than they’ve ever been, but she feels entitled to all the food in the fridge, because all the food that she personally brings into the apartment is hers. The girls don’t have much communal food.

So what it basically comes down to is we parents spend their whole formative years teaching them how to share only to have all those lessons thrown out the window in six short months of living away from home.

I expected her to learn a lot at college, I don’t remember “How Not to Share” being part of the curriculum.

Diabetic wine aficionados take heart: drinking wine in moderation might benefit people with type 2 diabetes. People with diabetes must be very careful when consuming alcoholic beverages for several reasons.

Drinks with lots of sugar can cause a dangerous blood sugar spike, while drinking on an empty stomach or in conjunction with certain medications can cause a low swing. Now, promising research might offer a positive outlook. It turns out that wine, either red or white, may help the body use insulin more effectively. Still, caution is advised. Low blood sugar and an alcohol buzz can seem the same, so wearing an ID that lets others know about the diabetes is recommended. Diabetics should also be sure to stay hydrated.

Alcohol can affect other medical conditions you may have, like diabetic nerve damage, diabetic eye disease, and high blood triglycerides. Check with your health care provider to make sure alcohol doesn’t complicate any of your medical conditions or interfere with your medications.

Keystone Pipeline: A Tempest in a Teapot

What’s all the fuss about the Keystone XL pipeline proposal anyway? The proposed 1,179mile pipeline from Alberta, Canada, would diagonally cross Montana and then traverse South Dakota, to Steel City, Neb., where it would be connected to already existing pipelines to Gulf state refineries.

Liberals don’t like it because it would take tar sands from Canada, causing higher pollution: the extracted oil produces 17 percent more carbon pollution than normal petroleum production, according to a Nov. 18, 2014, New York Times article by Coral Davenport.

They object to the whole process of extracting oil from tar sands because it is environmentally destructive.

Conservatives want it, Davenport goes on, because they say it will create 42,000 temporary, two-year jobs. Eventually, upon completion, the pipeline would create 35 permanent jobs and make the U.S. more energy secure by getting oil from Canada. Their argument is that this pipeline just adds to the thousands of pipelines that already criss-cross the nation.

The fact of the matter is that environmental groups have turned the Keystone XL pipeline into a symbol for them. Because the pipeline crosses an international border, the president is open to pressure from these groups not to approve it. They’re seeing the pipeline issue as a litmus test of the president’s loyalty to environmental causes, according to Bernard Weinstein, associate director of the Energy Institute at Southern Methodist University in a Feb. 4, 2015, article on Watchdog.org.

COVINGTON MAPLE VALLEY

OPINION

[4] February 27, 2015

These groups are exaggerating the issue of pollution because whether or not the pipeline is built, Canada will continue to process its tar sands into petroleum and then ship it via rail or truck to the west coast, as long as it remains cost effective. Of course, with the recent drastic price reductions of crude oil, the issue could become moot.

The arguments of conservatives ignore the fact that recently created railroad and trucking jobs would be lost as a result of the pipe construction.

Additionally, most of the jobs created by construction would be temporary. Republicans and Democrats have turned the proposed pipeline into a political issue to rally their base constituents in preparation for the 2016 elections.

In other words, this whole pipeline controversy is not that important one way or the other.

The Republican-controlled Congress may soon pass a bill favoring construction, while President Obama has promised publicly he will veto any related bill that lands on his desk.

The Keystone XL pipeline decision is actually another straw man for larger differences between the Democratic president and the Republicancontrolled Congress.

All of this emotion, threats and name-calling will continue for the last two remaining years of the president’s term, not because it is in the nation’s best interest but because the power of politics has a much greater voice than rational thinking in the nation’s capital.

the Grocery Manufacturers Association spent several million dollars to defeat a food-labeling initiative, then tried unsuccessfully to keep its donors secret.

This bill creates a new class of political committee called incidental committees.

These would file reports with the state Public Disclosure Commission if they spend at least $25,000 in a campaign for a statewide office or statewide ballot measure or $5,000 in a local contest like a county council race. Only those who contribute $2,000 or more to a committee must be identified.

Enough with the advice: House Bill 1323 would eliminate those statewide advisory votes that let voters weigh in whether they like or dislike revenue-generating bills passed by the Legislature. These nonbinding measures are the result of a provision in Initiative 960 which Mukilteo’s Tim Eyman sponsored and voters approved in 2007.

It costs taxpayers to give their advice. The text of the bills and the votes of the lawmakers must appear in the voter pamphlets. In 2014, that information filled six pages and cost the state $87,761. In 2013, the tab was $164,444 for 10 pages of content.

Election reduction: There would no longer be elections in February and April if House Bill 1379 became law. Instead, there would only be a primary in August and general election in November with provisions for special elections to deal with recalls and unexpected vacancies.

Elections in February and April are typically

when school districts and fire districts put their funding measures on the ballot.

Picking up the tab: Some lawmakers worry the cost of a stamp — 49 cents for first class — is a barrier to voting. They’ve drawn up Senate Bill 5344 to require that return envelopes for primary and general election ballots include prepaid postage. Counties would pay and get reimbursed by the state. It might not be cheap.

“The legislature finds that the postage, while only a small amount, amounts to the poll tax for many of our citizens,” reads the bill.

Hold that budget-busting initiative: There’s a bipartisan uprising to keep expensive initiatives off the ballot unless they include a means of paying for themselves. Thirty-eight senators — half of them Republican, half Democrat — are proposing a constitutional amendment to turn down initiatives that would knock the state budget out of balance because of cost.

Senate Joint Resolution 8201 must be approved by a two-thirds majority in each chamber and then it goes to the people for a simple majority vote.

Voters’ approval of Initiative 1351 in November is pushing lawmakers in this direction.

That measure requires smaller classes at every grade level. It will cost an estimated $4 billion to carry out and lawmakers don’t know where they will get that kind of money. That’s why it’s likely that sometime this session lawmakers will act to amend or suspend the ballot measure.

Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.com.

Editor’s note: On Tuesday, Feb. 23 President Obama vetoed the Republican bill that favored the Keystone XL oil pipeline.

Lawmakers are looking at ways to make the election process cheaper for voters, easier to see who is funding campaigns and harder to run initiatives with financial consequences.

Holding fewer elections, paying the postage on mail-in ballots and new disclosure rules for pop-up political committees are among the ideas put forth thus far this session.

Here are five bills receiving attention from lawmakers that could mean big changes in coming election cycles.

Exposing dark money: Senate Bill 5153 takes aim at an emerging force in campaigns — political committees created and funded by nonprofit associations. Under existing rules, they can pretty much mask their identity and shield the source of their money because of their status.

This is a big topic nationally — think Koch Brothers — and it is showing up in this state as well. In 2013, a group called Working Washington dumped bunches of money into passing a minimum wage measure in SeaTac. It took time to track the source of the money to a union-sponsored group. Also that year,

BY SARAH WEHMANN swehmann@covingtonreporter.com

On Saturday, Feb. 14, firefighters from the Maple Valley Fire and Life Safety responded to a residential fire in the 21100 block of SE 248th Street.

Aiding the Maple Valley firefighters were some from the Kent and Renton Fire Department.

Once on scene, they found an abandoned home with the roof already burned and the second floor engulfed in flames.

The Maple Valley Fire Marshal Scott Webster said because the driveway leading to the house was so long, firefighters had to use “1,700 feet of hose to reach the house.”

Maple Valley Fire & Life Safety respond to a residential fire early Saturday. Damage is estimated at $300,000. Contributed photo He added, it took roughly two hours to “extinguish the fire.”

Site was purchased using the bonds, the other fifty percent was purchased using the city’s money. In the tax-exempt structure, this means the half not purchased with the bonds and up to 5 percent of the half purchased with the bonds can be used for private purposes.

The rest has to be set aside for public use under that limitation.

As stated at the meeting Monday, the term “public use” can be broadly interpreted. It can mean a library, a City Hall building, a jail, open space and recreation center.

In a letter to the City Council dated Feb. 4, former council member Victoria Laise Jonas expressed her agreement with the option to refinance using the tax-exempt structure.

She stated in the letter this option will “continue to protect the vision of this public land.”

He said he didn’t see a compelling argument to not go with the tax-exempt option.

In the original Citizen’s Advisory Committee report dated June 27, 2005, the committee made recommendations to the City Council at the time for potential uses of the Legacy Site. Among those recommendations was the construction of a City Hall, a community meeting hall, a performance center and community amphitheater and commercial/retail use.

Barnes presented two maps to the council Monday night, both from the original CAC report in 2005.

One map outlined three “potential primary development zones,” or areas that the CAC recommended could be used for private purposes or sold. It also says these zones are the “maximum suggested extent” for this use.

“The three areas represent less than 50 percent of the site,” Barnes said.

Meaning, “We don’t have more than 50 percent of the land to sell.”

Attract pollinators with these plants

Marianne Binetti

Snowdrops, crocus and daffodils can be spotted in bloom this week. These early flowering bulbs may be small but they are welcome signs of spring and easy to grow in most landscapes. These bulbs are usually planted in the fall as they need a few months of winter chill to get them in the blooming mood.

The good news for Western Washington gardeners is that our climate allows color-seeking gardeners to buy potted, blooming bulbs from the nursery now to add to the garden for instant gratification and years of perennial color. Local nurseries and garden centers now offer spring bulbs in plastic pots much like they do summer annuals. Bring them home, slide the bulbs, soil and roots out of the pot and plant the blooming color into any well-drained site in the garden. You can even leave the potted bulbs in their containers, bury them a bit into the potting soil of your empty porch or patio pots and enjoy container gardens that bloom with early spring color. Once the spring flowers fade simply transfer the bulbs from the pots into the landscape for years of more spring bloom.

Do you think you don’t have room for early bloomers in your garden? Think about our pollinators and think again. Pollinators include birds, bees, butterflies and moths that all need the nectar of flowers this time of year for the energy it takes to pollinize the plants and keep us humans alive.

Hummingbirds may be the divas of the pollinator crowd but native bees and night-flying moths are also mixing up the pollen and doing their part to create new life. Loss of native habitat has meant the loss of pollinators so it is up to gardeners to save the world and plant more early bloomers.

Here are some great plants to add to your landscape that attract and feed

pollinators.

Lungwart or Pulmonaria – ugly name, pretty plant.

This early-blooming perennial likes shade but will adapt to sun. The blue-gray foliage is spotted and attractive. In early spring the small, bell-shaped blooms appear in shades of blue, fading to pink, with some varieties flowering white or salmon.

Hummingbirds and bees dip into the blossoms with gusto so adding just a few pulmonaria to your garden will create a hum from all the pollinators in the neighborhood.

Ribes, Currant or Gooseberry – all are members of the same family and some ribes are native shrubs in Western Washington. These plants flower with lovely, dangling clusters that put a rumble in a bumblebee and put the hum into hummingbirds. Many birds love the summer berries but it is the hummingbirds that benefit the most when you add a pink or red blooming currant shrub to your landscape. You won’t need to keep your artificial feeder filled to get the hummers fighting over a food supply and putting on a show. If you add native huckleberries to the mix you might just entice the hummingbirds to collect some moss and spider webs and construct a tiny nest to dangle from the branches of these under used shrubs.

Sarcococca or Sweet Box is a winter-flowering

The Compleat Home Gardener

evergreen shrub that comes in several sizes from a petite dwarf less than 2 feet tall (Sarcococca humilis) to a more robust version (Sarcococca ruscifolia) that can be used as a hedge. The big news here is that Sweet Box thrives in the deepest, darkest shade so it can provide tidy evergreen structure on the north side of a house where moisture collects and moss likes to grow. Plant vanilla-scented Sarcococca and you may never notice the tiny white blossoms that appear in February but you will never forget the strong, sweet fragrance and the many thanks from the grateful pollinating bees and moths.

Forsythia – The bright yellow blooms on this upright, woody shrub will never be called subtle as the flowers appear before the foliage, creating a mass of sunshine color that alerts the pollinators from miles around. You can buy forsythia shrubs dirt cheap as bare root plants but don’t invest in a large specimen.

Any forsythia will become a large specimen in just a few years if left unpruned.

The smart location for this winter bloomer is someplace in the background where it can grow wild and free and never need pruning. A location where it gets at least half a day of sun will force it into flower but the garden gossip on forsythia is that she does not age gracefully. Once the bloom of spring has sprung this long-lived shrub will spend the summer looking dowdy and a bit unkempt. Keep this in mind when choosing a location.

By Kathy Lang, Family Dog Training Center Seattleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show is coming up March 7-8, indoors at the CenturyLink Field Event Center. If you love dogs, head to the show between 8 am and 6 pm both days. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a chance to see dogs from all over the country, including South King County, struttinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; their stuff.

Conformation: More than a beauty contest, this is where breeders and owner/handlers present their dogs for evaluation based on structure, movement and temperament. After earning enough wins over competition, dogs may achieve their American Kennel Club (AKC) breed championship title. Well over 100 different breeds of dogs, and more than 1,000 total dogs, are presented each year.

Agility: Like all performance events, agility is open to mixed breed dogs who have registered with the AKC. Cheer for your favorite dog and handler as they race through tunnels, jump over hurdles and weave through the poles. The fastest dog in each height category wins the blue ribbon, but every dog that qualifies takes one step closer to an agility title.

Obedience: From the entry-level classes where dogs work on leash to the most advanced Utility competition, all dogs and handlers are judged on teamwork and accuracy. Heeling, hand signals, jumping, retrieving and out-of-sight stays are just a few of the exercises youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see assorted dogs perform.

Rally: Some folks think of rally as a cross between agility and obedience. Handlers are judged on both speed and accuracy as they navigate a course with stations that require the team to perform specific maneuvers.

Meet the Breeds: Many local breed clubs and breeders will be on hand, giving attendees a chance to meet their dogs and learn more about each breed.

Vendors: Dozens of pet-related vendors offer items for sale. Dog food, treats, artwork, clothing (for humans and dogs), fancy collars, leashes and hundreds of cool items only found at dog shows will be on display.

Entertainment: The demonstration and performance rings begin at 10:00 am with a skit and dance routine featuring Family Dog Training Center from Kent. Ten dogs, along with Amy the Pig, will perform, followed by herding, nose work, police K9 units, and musical freestyle dancing demonstrations throughout the day.

For more info: Only dogs entered in the show are allowed to attend. Entry fees, parking information, free show tours and judging schedules (so you know exactly what time to be ringside to see your favorite breed) are available at seattledogshow.org.

ANIMAL HOSPTIAL 2015 marks the 50th year that Wilderness Animal Hospital has been in business. To confirm this information was correct, we consulted with two long term Maple Valley residents, and both confirmed that Wilderness Animal Hospital (formerly Lake Wilderness Veterinary Clinic and Wilderness Veterinary Clinic) did exist in 1965.

2015 is going to bring exciting changes as we plan to expand into the space next to us. One of the biggest changes is the addition of two exam rooms, making it possible to schedule more time for our technicians, including a new service we are adding; cold laser therapy. We are excited to add this treatment modality, as it has many uses to help decrease inflammation and encourage healing.

We will also be adding a cat specific hospitalization ward and a cat only waiting area. The entire clinic is going to be updated keeping in consideration our clients and patients. With emphasis on safety, comfort and best care possible. Look for our Open House which will be scheduled this summer!
