The one summer event no one wants to welcome early is upon us: Wildfire season. Starting on April 15, the season sprawls until October 15, affecting private and public lands, including 13 million acres of private and state forestland under the Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

With snowpacks only reaching 16 percent of its normal consistency, Washington State is experiencing the worst state-wide drought since 2005, according to the Department of Ecology. On Friday, May 15, Goy. Jay Inslee declared a state-spanning drought emergency, after his Emergency Water Executive Committee found 48 of 62 Washington watersheds reported

Tim Perciful, Mountain View Fire & Rescue, speaks at the Firewise Leadership Conference in Carnation about evacuation preparedness for families and pets. water supplies at 75 percent of normal or below.

Fire season typically begins in early July and tapers off in late September, but the season shifted after the DNR recorded roughly 900 wildfires on more than 315,000 acres of its protected lands last year, adding up to the state’s worst fire season.

“They’ve certainly gotten bigger and more intense,” DNR assistant

region manager for the South Puget Sound region, Doug McClelland, stated about the flourishing fires.

McClelland, who spoke to the Record by phone, has worked in King County for more than 30 years and added that as more people move to the woods, they add heartier complications to the growing urban-fire interface problems.

To prepare for the dry season, DNR is bringing on fire crews early

this year for training to protect their 12 million-acre span, but he said that during fire season, whether an employee’s job is trail maintenance or planting trees, it’s an “all-handson-deck” mentality.

Even though fires have changed, McClelland said what’s needed to suppress them hasn’t.

“What it takes to put out a fire has remained about the same,” he continued. “In reality, it takes hard-working people on the ground (to stop a fire).

That hasn’t changed at all.”

Crew work can involve anything from building trails around a fire and implementing hefty or tedious tools like bulldozers or axes and shovels, split between a 10-to-20 person crew.

Safety begins with awareness.

“If we’re all safe in the woods, we’ll be just fine,” McClelland urged before signing off.

DNR staff noted that 75 percent of the catastrophic fires last year were human-caused, and though forest fires are largely ignited by lightning strikes, especially on the eastern side of the state, abandoned campfires, cigarette ash and downed power lines are also common triggers.

No one was complaining Sunday at Snoqualmie’s Centennial Field Park. The 200-plus people gathered there dutifully moved two steps to the left, or four back, as requested by photographer Mary Miller for the fourth annual Heart of the Valley community photo. They chatted in line about what they were making, suggested other shapes, fiddled with the toy gliders provided for the day, and patted their, or other people’s dogs.

Just as they finished the second formation, an old-school smiley face, Nancy Mickel ran across the field to hug a friend goodbye, because she had to go to work.

“Nancy, come back, we need you as the dimple!” Miller’s assistant Anne Landry called over the PA system, but it was futile.

FIRE FROM 1 Most Washington residents aren’t strangers to basic fire prevention around their homes, but a little yard work can go a long way.

For those looking to engage in community firefighting preparedness and education, Firewise Communities (a program from the National Fire Protection Association) have become a strong force.

With more than a million people involved throughout 40 states and a $33 million community investment in 2014, Firewise brings neighborhoods together to tackle fire issues as a whole.

Valley-wide Firewise communities include: Wilderness Rim, North Bend; Tolt Triangle Fire Council, Carnation; St i l l w at e r Nor t h , Duvall; Ski Tur Valley, Snoqualmie Pass; and Lake Alice, Fall City.

Sparking a Firewise community begins and ends with neighborhood communication. To participate in the program, residents must contact Firewise (www.firewise.org) for a wildfire risk evaluation,

create a plan based on the evaluation for a “Firewise Day” (which include anything from chipper days to community clean-ups) and include fire mitigation activities that amount to a community investment of more than $2 per person annually, through grants or in-kind volunteer work.

Once the plan is implemented, a community can apply for Firewise recognition and continue to renew this each year.

Bud Backer, deputy chief for Eastside Fire & Rescue, attended the free Firewise Leadership Conference and addressed the looming fire risk on Thursday, May 7, at Camp River Ranch, in Carnation.

“We would like to see (Firewise) expanded,” Backer detailed over the phone. “We were talking about how to get people concerned… We expect a more active fire season than normal due to the extended drying period (expected this summer).”

Backer said there’s a misconception that wildfires never occur in the Valley, but he said that’s because there are a lot of fire departments and resources out

here, so they catch them quickly.

“Even if we have a ton of fire resources… eventually we’re going to be busy on one…” he warned.

Backer said Firewise provides more than just a fire preparedness, but encourages “communities preparing as a whole” to form evacuation routes, for example.

“When the fire department comes through and says ‘Run,’ you’ll have no time to grab photos or birth certificates,” he said.

One of the Firewise members who’s ready to run is Richard Werlein. He started the Lake Alice chapter after he said a burn ban, along with added disposal costs, removed the incentive for people to properly dispose of their yard waste.

“Throughout that process, we’ve become a lot tighter of a community,” Werlein stated during the conference. “It’s in our best interest to see our neighboring communities have a Firewise community, as well, and share resources.”

One community Werlein has his eye on is near Snoqualmie, where a field of elevated scotchbroom on

‘Hike and Write’ program to expand in wilderness this summer On May 30, Washington state Poet Laureate Elizabeth Austen will visit the Valley for a “Hike and Write” event during the day and a reading in the evening at the Black Dog Cafe in Snoqualmie.

Austen’s “Hike and Write” program consists of a short, meditative hike and a brief, guided writing session in response to the walk, starting at 12:30 a.m. at the Iron Horse Trail near North Bend. She will conduct a similar event July 18 in the Olympic National Park near Port Angeles.

“Hike and Writes are about sharing the practice of walking attentively, and letting that attention lead to writing,” said Austen.

The program debuted in 2014.

Austen will begin the local event at the Iron Horse Trail. The Hike and Write is free and open to the public.

No previous experience with hiking or writing is needed. Austen will begin the hikes with several example poems, then guide participants in letting their sensory experience lead to writing.

Writing poetry in the natural world has a deep resonance for Austen. A six-month solo trip to the Andes region of South America in her early 30s inspired her to spend her life focusing on poetry.

She says her goal with Hike and Write events is for people to leave with a first draft of a new poem and the desire to keep experimenting with writing and poetry.

the Ridge is a genuine firefear for his community.

“Fire is an integral part of our ecosystem. We just don’t to see it as often on the west side of the Cascades,” said Anthony Starkovich, south zone fire management officer for the U.S. Department of Agriculture, from his office in the National Forest Service station in North Bend.

“We have a lot more fuel in our forest,” he continued, though he said it’s predominantly waterlogged, which deters the fire from spreading.

Starkovich has worked for the forest service for 27 years and his fire unit covers as far north as the Glacier Peak Wilderness Area to the Mount Rainier National Park boundary in the south. “We stay pretty busy,” Starkovich quipped.

Starkovich said his department tip-toes along the delicate line between balancing controlled and naturally ignited fires in remote forests that healthily take their course, and making the decision to fight fires that might reach developed areas. He said his department is most aggressive with suppression in the mid-summer months, but it varies on a case-by-case basis.

To prepare for the fire season, the Mount Baker-

Snoqualmie National Forest Service is taking on the usual, seasonal 17-person firefighter team.

Behind the office building, there are two Type 3 engines, one smaller, patrol Type 6 truck.

The forest service also has a “mirror” force in the north zone, Mount Baker Ranger District, as well as the south zone at North Bend with the Snoqualmie Ranger District.

When asked about his fire-preparedness advice, Starkovich displayed the freshly cut vegetation, with shrubs reaching more than 18 inches away from the office building.

He stressed that personal fire suppression is key, especially after his department tackled roughly 30 humancaused fires last year from abandoned campfires gone awry.

“Number one, if you ignite any type of fire,” he continued, “make sure it’s extinguished completely before you leave it unattended.”

The Washington State Department of Natural Resources (DNR) recommends a few basic, household practices to protect your communities: • To protect your home from embers, clear leaves/debris from your lawn, gutters, eaves, porches, roofs and decks. Replace or repair shingles or roof tiles.

• Remove dead vegetation within 10 feet of the house or stored items from underneath decks and porches.

• Screen or box-in areas below patios and decks with wire mesh to prevent debris/combustible materials from accumulating.

• Store firewood, propane tanks and dry vegetation 30 feet away from your home’s foundation and outbuildings, including garages and sheds.

• Prune trees so the lowest branches are 6 to 10 feet from the ground.

• Keep your lawn hydrated and maintained, but cut it down if it’s brown.

• Cover exterior attic vents, under-eave and soffit vents with a metal wire mesh no larger than 1/8 inch to prevent sparks from infiltrating.

“Spending time surrounded by natural beauty—even the severe beauty of a rocky or desert landscape — calms the chatter in my mind, lets me drop into a more receptive, associative state of mind,” said Austen.

“My hope is that people who are curious about either hiking or poetry will give this a try, that it will be a safe and welcoming way to do something new—or to do something familiar in a new way.”

The event is scheduled for 12:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Participants will meet at 12:30 p.m. at the Rattlesnake Lake parking lot (exit 32 from I-90). Look for the “Hike & Write with the Poet Laureate” sign. Bring writing materials, water, snacks, warm layers and if you choose, something to sit on. The hike will be four or five miles in total length.

No pre-registration is required. In case of rain, the writing will take place in the Cedar River Watershed Educational Center adjacent to the Rattlesnake Lake parking lot.

This Hike and Write is co-sponsored by Humanities Washington, ArtsWA, and The Black Dog Arts Coalition.

Austen is the author of a collection, Every Dress a Decision, and two chapbooks, The Girl Who Goes Alone and Where Currents Meet. She produces literary programming for KUOW radio, a Seattle NPR affiliate, and is a communications specialist and educator at Seattle Children’s Hospital.

The Washington State Poet Laureate position was established in April 2007 when the state legislature passed a bill that recognized the value of poetry to the culture and heritage of the state. Washington joined several other states in appointing an official state poet laureate position. The poet laureate is sponsored

by Humanities Washington and ArtsWA, with the support of Gov. Jay Inslee. The position is funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and Humanities Washington.

HAPPY FROM 1 face, the people were ready to do what they came for.

“Now it’s time to do the heart!” announced Landry.

A new murmur ran through the crowd, and one little girl blurted, “Finally!”

People began moving right away, as if they already knew where to stand for the heart shape, and assistants Rich and Sharon Wiltshire made quick work of shaping the free-form heart up.

Miller, harnessed into a ladder bucket 100 feet above the ground, gave directions over the phone to Landry, who relayed them.

Some thought the heart was the end of the session, but Miller and company had one more surprise and challenge for the crowd, an outline of Mount Si, with the Haystack and three snowy channels down its face.

Rich Wiltshire, consulting the picture of the mountain on his phone, stepped back with quiet approval when the arranging was done. Then he was reminded to get into the photo.

Afterward, there were games, music by the Antone brothers and a continuation of the potluck.

Miller, back on the ground, was gratified to see people playing, either in organized games or, as she did four years ago with the original Heart of the Valley, making something up as they went.

“That’s the thing about playing,” she said. “It doesn’t have to be designed perfectly… you can relax and do your own thing.”

Bringing back memories Memorial Day honors those we lost, but is a day for the living, too

T

he official Memorial Day holiday is arriving a little late in my family.

For us, at least for those of us back home in Minnesota, it happened about a month ago, when my father’s cousin was returned home.

He was an Army sergeant when he went missing in action in the Korean War. Missing and presumed dead, he had a funeral in 1953.

Some time last year, his brothers were notified that his remains were found. Some of them, anyway. We learned more about his death. He’d been taken as a prisoner of war and probably died in prison camp in 1951.

It took months to arrange for his homecoming and burial. I don’t know all the details.

Last month, though, he was returned to his home town and was buried in our church cemetery, with full military honors.

The local newspaper there covered the homecoming and CAROL LADWIG the services for three Valley Record Editor consecutive weeks. I’d been getting the paper for about two months by then, and wondering when someone in my family would show up on the front page — it’s a pretty small town, even by Valley standards. It took maybe three weeks, and there was my Mom, smiling behind the quilt she helped make to donate to the local Relay for Life event.

A couple of weeks later, there were a lot more of my family, all on my Dad’s side, on the front page. That was a lot harder for me to look at. I never knew Arnold, but I knew all of those faces in the paper.

Now I am not a crier, not for sad movies, not for holiday commercials, not for anything fake. But I have no defenses against a real person in real grief. When I talk to veterans, that grief is just under the surface of the faces they show the world. They may be survivors, strong soldiers who made it home and lived their lives, but they lost something, too. It’s hard to acknowledge that, and harder to express it.

I haven’t read any of those issues of my home-town paper yet. The churn of work and projects and the lure of sunny days in the garden have kept me out of the frame of mind I want to be in when I read them.

I think this weekend will be good for that.

Commemorative events The American Legion will conduct ceremonies at all upper Valley cemeteries on Memorial Day, Monday, May 25.

Services will be at 9 a.m. in Preston Cemetery, 10 a.m. in Fall City Cemetery, 11 a.m. in Mount Si Cemetery and noon at the veteran memorial at the American Legion Hall. For details, see page 3.

Letters Preserving the peace is a partnership Friday, May 15, was Peace Officers Memorial Day, and the week of May 11 to 15 was Police Week in tribute to local, state, and federal peace officers killed in the line of duty. In 2014, 126 officers lost their lives protecting their communities.

Recently, it may seem that there is a battle between peace officers and some citizen groups across the country, not the unified battle against crime and social chaos. Peace officers protect those who are vulnerable. The battle against crime cannot be fought without the trust and support of the communities we serve.

The increased scrutiny of law enforcement agencies across the country may be seen as negative, but actually it is a positive, allowing agencies to ensure they are operating in the most ethical and professional manner.

There is positive news. In Washington State, during the last 30 years, serious felony crimes are down 43 percent and violent crimes are down 27 percent, based on crimes reported per 1,000 residents.

This has been accomplished without overincarceration in our prison system.

The number of police officers in our state has fallen by more than 330 officers

since 2008. All of this success could not have been possible without a substantial increase of public investment (you the tax-paying citizen) in the criminal justice infrastructure which is up 120 percent.

Washington state is one of the safest states in the country, and the Snoqualmie Valley is by far one of the safest parts of King County to live, work, and raise a family.

From a local law enforcement standpoint, we are fortunate to have a high level of trust and confidence from our residents.

This is the direct result of proactive community engagement and our “No Call Too Small” policing philosophy.

I would like to thank our residents for the overwhelming support of our officers serving in Snoqualmie and North Bend. I would also ask that you take a moment to remember the officers across the country who gave their lives in the name of preserving social order, safety and security.

When you see an officer, say hello and thank them for their service. This small, but very important, gesture means more to them than you know.

purpose of these walkouts has been for teachers to voice their disapproval of the state legislature’s lack of action to meet its mandate to fully fund basic education.

In these instances, teachers have made it clear their displeasure is not with their respective school districts, but with the legislature.

Teachers in the Snoqualmie Valley share those same concerns about the legislature’s lack of action in developing a specific plan to fund basic education. These concerns were magnified when the legislature concluded its 105-day regular session without adopting an operating budget for the next biennium.

While our teachers are extremely concerned with these developments, the Snoqualmie Valley Education Association has decided not to organize a one-day walkout. This action would negatively affect students and families in the Snoqualmie Valley when the teachers’ concerns are actually with the legislature.

Our administrators and school board members have the same concerns as our teachers. We are troubled by the lack of action on the part of the state legislature to fully fund basic education, per the McCleary decision. We are disturbed that the burden of funding for the day-today operation of our schools has steadily shifted from the state to the local level over the past several decades. The state legislature is not meeting the mandate of the state constitution or the dictate of the Supreme Court.

The city of Snoqualmie and Puget Sound Energy (PSE) have finalized a new tourism opportunity at the falls on Monday, May 11, at the city council meeting. Visitors now have access to a museum on-site at the falls, a historic train depot with displayed archival materials and a turbine (“Generator 5”) from the underground powerhouse.

The museum, located at the top of the falls on the adjacent side of the Salish Lodge, was built in a repurposed

carpenter shop and a glimpse of larger artifacts and retired equipment. The interpretative material will explain the hydroelectric history of the falls.

Operation hours are tentatively set for Wednesday to Sunday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m during the height of summer. This year, the program will begin in June and offers three new jobs for seasonal interpreters: two interns and a historic area coordinator, who will be managed by the city. Puget Sound Energy will cover expenses.

The museum is small and is slated to house roughly 50 people at a time. Elizabeth Dubreuil, consulting cul-

tural resource scientist for PSE, said the museum is open to working with schools in the future, but for now this summer opening will act as the pilot program.

The museum was built as PSE finished a four-year redevelopment project for two hydroelectric facilities after it received a renewed 40-year license in 2004. The renovated facilities were: Plant 1, the more than a century-old structure (the world’s first underground power plant), housed in bedrock 260-feet below the surface; and Plant 2, its above-ground neighbor located a quarter-mile downstream from the falls. Together, the facilities now produce up to 54 megawatts of energy (10 more than before the renovations), enough to power 40,000 homes.

Snoqualmie Valley Record • May 20, 2015 • 7

Two girls to golf at state Mount Si’s girls golf team advanced five of its 27 members to the District 2 tournament in post-season play last week, and two to the state tournament, coming up May 26 and 27 at Indian Canyon Golf Course in Spokane.

After finishing tied for third, one shot off the winning goal, in the first day of the district tournament, junior Caitlin Maralack finished in fourth overall. She was also named to Kingo’s allconference first team.

Kat Hodgson, a freshman, just made the cutoff for state, with 12th place. Only 12 golfers from the district, plus two alternates, can compete at state.

Two Mount Si girls, Bianca Backman and Kara Murray, also earned honorable mention in the all-conference announcements.

Working women who golf may want to clear their Tuesday evenings for the summer, to join a new ninehole league at Snoqualmie Falls Golf Course. The women-only league is not replacing or even competing with the established and much-loved daytime ladies’ league, just offering a casual evening alternative.

“Even members of the ladies’ league might want to come play,” said Michele Terney, one of the evening league organizers.

She and co-organizer Carol Whiteside are hoping there are more women golfers like them, who want to get in a little golf, but not on their already busy weekends, or during the day.

“I work part time and Carol works full time, so we can’t play during the day,” said Terney, adding with a sigh. “I guess some ladies are really lucky and don’t need to work.”

Timing is only part of the reason they wanted to try the league. The other part was competition, which neither of them was really interested in.

“We’re looking to improve our game,” said Whiteside.

She’s been golfing close to 20 years, she said, “and I’m definitely not quitting my job to go play in the LPGA tour.”

Casual is the word they both used to describe the league. Something that a golfer would enjoy, but not obsess over.

“I don’t hear about any casual men’s leagues, but I don’t know about every men’s league,” said Whiteside.

“Tuesdays are just different.”

“This is just an easy nine holes after work,” said Terney.

The ladies’ night league has openings for up to 16 players, four foursomes, starting at 5:30 p.m., Tuesday, June 2, at Snoqualmie Falls Golf Course. The league runs through September.

To sign up for a spot in the ladies’ Tuesday evening league, contact: Michele Terney - shellhm@comcast.net, or Carol Whiteside - earlandcarolwhiteside@comcast.net.

Teachers rally for schools

By CAROL LADWIG Editor

A serious issue brought Snoqualmie Valley teachers, students, staff and parents to the Snoqualmie Parkway Friday afternoon, but participants couldn’t

help but make it a fun event.

As video drones circled overhead and traffic backed up for construction, making the road more of a sidewalk, participants in the rally for education cheered with every honk of support from passing trucks and buses. They played Red Rover, and waved signs with sayings about education and the need for state funding.

“Fund my teachers” was written on one youngster’s sign. “We need

cash,” read another. Language arts teachers Brian McCormick and Susan Holihan just advertised their strengths, “Pathos” for McCormick, and “Logos” for Holihan.

They teach about Ethos, too, at Mount Si High School, they just didn’t make a sign for it.

Some of teacher Amanda Adcox’s students from Chief Kanim Middle School were waving signs, and held still just barely

long enough for her to get a photo of the boys.

“I didn’t know they were coming,” she said. The boys had asked her about the issue – the state legislature’s recent conclusion of a legislative session without a budget that addressed its fully-funded education mandate – in class, she said, and she’d told them a little about it, but was surprised to see them.

Asher Crosby put some thought

into his sign, asking for help to get him out of “mental classes.” “It means if you’re in a mental class, you can learn more with smaller classes,” he explained.

From the Parkway, the rally marched to the Snoqualmie Valley YMCA for speeches from the Snoqualmie Valley Education Association president Lisa Radmer, school superintendent Joel Aune and school board president Geoff Doy.

AVERAGE WHITE BAND The Average White Band is widely regarded as one of the best soul and funk bands in the history of music. Though perhaps best known for their timeless instrumental mega-hit ‘Pick Up the Pieces’ the band’s strength actually lie in their consistently accomplished song-writing, stretching across several gold selling albums and multi-grammy nominations for the legendary Atlantic Records. The current lineup of the band, with noted US musicians alongside founding members Alan Gorrie and Onnie McIntyre, continues to delight audiences and critics alike.

Ask Senator Mark Mullet... ?

Why did he vote to increase class sizes in Issaquah schools?* Sen. Mullet voted for a bill that overrides the voter-approved initiative to reduce class sizes in grades 4-12 and in high-needs schools. As a result, those students will continue to be packed into some of the largest class sizes in the country.

?

Why did he vote to support controversial high-stakes testing?+ Sen. Mullet voted for a bill that mandates the misuse of standardized student tests to make high-stakes decisions about students and teachers, even though there’s no evidence such a policy helps kids.

?

Why did he propose controversial tax legislation that fails to increase funding for K-12 schools?^ Sen. Mullet is the prime sponsor of a “levy swap” bill that rearranges school funding but fails to increase funding for schools in Issaquah.

Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is holding Sen. Mullet and the rest of the Legislature in contempt for failing to increase school funding as required by the Constitution.

Call Sen. Mullet at 800-562-6000 & Tell Him: • Fully fund smaller class sizes for all students • Oppose the misuse of high-stakes standardized tests • Increase funding for K-12 public schools Paid for by the 85,000 members of the Washington Education Association
