Pierce County voters are being asked to approve a 0.1 percent sales tax increase to pay for an upgrade to the county’s 911 system that
County Executive Pat McCarthy said would bring all dispatch services under the same roof. “We’re looking at trying to take a system that’s disparate and unconnected and connect it,� she said. The move is predicated by a 2004 FCC mandate to move communications services to a narrower broadcast band that must be completed by January 2013, but McCarthy said the main driver for the ballot measure is fixing the “Swiss cheese approach to radio commu-
nications� that currently serves the county. “Why not capitalize on this opportunity to really look at making a more efficient system for everyone?� she asked. But not all are on board, including many in the city of Bonney Lake, which has already spent more than $3 million to upgrade its own communications facilities following the mandate, money being paid off through debt service.

New boundaries provide more equal representation for southern and eastern parts of district By Daniel Nash Staff Writer
Responding to decade-long population growth in the east and south ends of district boundaries, the Sumner School Board has redrawn its director boundaries for more equal representation of its constituents. Like many public legislatures, the board evaluates its boundaries every ten years once new federal Census figures become available. Washington state requires school districts to develop a plan for adjusting their bounds to the population within eight months of receiving Census data.

Chronicling the lion’s path By Daniel Nash Staff Writer
Ron Lemco is a gentle, optimistic person, quick to share a funny anecdote and ready to rattle off his poetry at a moment’s notice, in his best and most practiced dramatic voice. It’s genuinely surprising to think he ever served time in prison. But he did. In 1977, Lemco borrowed a sizable amount of money from a loan shark to fund his poker games. One day the debt became too much. His creditor dropped in, gave him a gun and told him to get the money however he had to. Lemco and his then-girlfriend took the gun and robbed a bank in Eugene, after taking the bank’s president and his wife hostage. They were apprehended shortly after their getaway. Lemco was convicted of the armed robbery and sentenced to 45 years in prison. Thanks to good behavior and an unprecedented vouching letter from the bank president (the gun was unloaded and he apparently treated the captives well), he was paroled after four years. “I don’t recommend prison to anybody,” he said. “But it was positive for me. I didn’t have
much going on in my life before that time. I had a seventh grade education. But by the time I got out, I had my GED and college credits toward an AA degree. I kept my head down.” As he puts it, Lemco chose the path of the lamb. But the central protagonists of his novel, “Rest Stop,” are a character study on the path of the lion; inmates who couldn’t help but let their history of violence control their fates. Bobby, Pauly, Jesse and Billy are serving time in Priggs Cottage, a minimum security facility for prisoners with one foot out the door. Together, they rule the prison’s whites, selling dope and raking in protection dues while they wait for their imminent release. The book opens on the day everything changes. A protection response to a black-on-white theft escalates into manslaughter and a race riot, and Bobby’s gang find themselves being prepped to be shipped back to the main prison. Before that can happen, they stage an improbable escape and wind up on the outside with a high profile and limited options. They come up with a plan to make quick cash: take over the last rest stop before Las Vegas and rob every sucker with a wad

of gambling money in his pocket. No frills, in and out in 20 minutes. “The idea for the book came from conversations I would have with my cellmate,” Lemco said. “It was a goofy game; one of us would say to the other ‘If I busted out of here, I’d do this,’ and the other would go ‘Oh yeah? If I busted out I’d do that,’ and on and on. One night we landed on the rest stop idea, and that became the jumping off point for the book.” The story is comedic, actionpacked and, ultimately, tragic. Each chapter is framed by one of the poems Lemco wrote in his journal, in prison. No punches are pulled in the dialogue: the characters talk like prisoners, and the content isn’t recommended for younger readers. Lemco completed the first draft in the early 90s, but only decided to go ahead with self-publishing this summer (His brother Steve released his own book, “Joe & Me,” around the same time; an interview with him can be found in our Oct. 5 issue). Ron and Steve will be at the Bonney Lake Library Friday from 12:30 to 6 p.m. to sign copies of their books.

THE GREAT COVERUP! To some extent, the porcelain veneers that dentists often use to cover chipped, broken, misshapen, stained, or discolored front teeth are similar to the artificial nails that manicurists use to cover problem fingernails. The primary difference is, of course, that the veneers used on teeth consist of thin shells of porcelain that are carefully placed over damaged or misshapen teeth. The procedure involves removal of a thin layer of the affected tooth’s outer surface, after which impressions are taken that are used to create veneers that will fit precisely. The veneers are fitted, permanently bonded in place, and shaped. The result is a newly surfaced tooth with an extremely durable material that closely mimics enamel. P.S. With our CAD/CAM technology, veneers are done in a single visit! You can rely on us to answer all your questions about dental treatments and procedures. At LAKERIDGE DENTISTRY, PLLC, we appreciate the opportunity to provide you and your family with quality dental care.

The Sumner Downtown Association will operate without an official Executive Director through the remainder of the year. Executive Director Arla Holzschuh retired at the end of September, turning in her letter of resignation Sept. 29, which became effective Sept. 30. Holzschuh took over the Executive Director position in fall 2010, after former director Shelly Schlumpf left for the Puyallup/Sumner Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps her biggest accomplishment at SDA’s helm was to steward the association into 501C3 nonprofit status. A shift

of Lake Tapps. Jeff De Marre gave up said island neighborhood and expanded southward to include the area surrounding Bonney Lake Elementary. Mike Pavlik’s ward changed least, though it picked up Hendricks’ losses in Sumner’s city limits. Board directors are required to live in their wards; border gerrymandering was accomplished in such a way as to accommodate their location. However, each director represents the district at-large, as opposed to the interests of their own ward only. To comment on this story, view it online at www. blscourierherald.com.

The 2010 Census revealed the population within Sumner School District’s overall bounds ballooned to 43,512 people—an increase of 9,368 people—mostly in southern Bonney Lake. Therefore, an ideal constituent per director ratio would be about 8,702. The gerrymandering required to achieve that equality can be difficult, considering the division must be by neighborhoods and households. “Interestingly, the deviation from (director) ward to ward is fairly even,� District spokesperson Ann Cook said. “The school district was pretty good about trying to have equal representation across directors.�
Board director Greg Hanon had and has maintained the geographically largest ward, due to the low population density in the district’s south relative to other wards. Because his ward saw the greatest degree of population growth, other directors’ bounds had to be encroached into his space. Rick Hendricks’ abandoned portion of Sumner’s downtown, was “stretched� southerly through rural Sumner, then eastward to the neighborhoods surrounding Bonney Lake High School, Mountain View Middle School and Victor Falls Elementary. Sherm Voiles’ ward gave up that eastern territory and was extended into the Sky Island neighborhoods, as well as northward to one of the island neighborhoods

Monitoring a pet’s health can be a weighty issue Welcome to Buckley Veterinary Hospital’s monthly pet care column. This month we are answering a reader’s request to discuss ideal weights and how to recognize if your pet is underweight or overweight by their body shape and mass. Monitoring your dog or cat’s weight is an important part of keeping a pet healthy. If your pet is underweight, this could be an early indication of an underlying medical disorder. If your furry family member is overweight or obese, this can lead to health problems including diabetes, arthritis, heart problems and breathing problems. Obesity develops when energy intake exceeds energy requirements. The excess energy is then stored as fat. Once a pet is obese, they may remain obese even after excessive caloric intake
stops. The majority of cases of obesity are related to simple overfeeding coupled with lack of exercise. Certain groups of dogs appear more prone to obesity than others. Specific breeds (Labrador retrievers and pugs, for example) and older dogs are particularly prone. A body condition scoring system has been developed by veterinarians, serving as a useful, easy-to-use management tool to determine the nutritional needs of pets. At Buckley Veterinary Hospital, we use a numeric scoring system from one to five, ranging from emaciated to obese and the spectrum in between. Learning how to score your animal is easy to do and will help keep your pet in optimal condition. At home, you can do a self-assessment of your pet’s body condition by following these simple steps.
1
Gently glide your hands down your pet’s rib cage. You should just be able to feel the ribs without applying pressure. If you need to press firmly to feel the ribs, this is overweight. If you cannot feel the ribs at all, this represents an obese animal. If you can see the ribs and there is little to no fat cover, that is referred to as underweight. Observe and feel your pet’s tail if they will allow you to do this. You should just be able to feel the tail bones as you touch the tail. There should be a little fat cover over the tail bones so you cannot see them. You will need to apply pressure to feel the tail bones if your pet is overweight. You will not be able to feel any bones if your pet is obese. You will be able to easily see the tail bones in a pet that is underweight.
2
3
Observe your pet from the top so you can visualize their back. From this view, you should be able to observe a definite waist contour. If there is no waist at all and your dog or cat looks round in shape, this would be obese. A very thin or underweight animal will have an exaggerated hourglass appearance. Observe your pet from the side. An abdominal tuck should be present if your pet has an ideal body condition. The area behind the ribs should be smaller than the chest. If your pet has an exaggerated abdominal tuck, they are likely underweight. An obese animal will have no abdominal tuck at all. Again, more often than not, overweight pets are a result of too much food intake. In a recent study, the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention estimated that
4
44 percent of dogs in the United States are overweight or obese. Veterinarians can examine your pet to make sure there is not a medical cause for your pet’s weight problem. If medical reasons have been eliminated, we can recommend a diet that will be best to help to achieve an ideal body condition. Beyond a change in diet, regular exercise and restricting the quantity of food that is given are also usually part of a successful weightloss plan. It is imperative to have a veterinarian involved with any kind of weight loss plan. A diet that is too calorie restricted or a plan that results in rapid weight loss can be harmful to your dog and especially to your cat. As mentioned earlier, overweight pets have many added stresses upon their body and are at an increased risk of diabetes, liver prob-

I’ll support it, but I can’t occupy it The other day one of my more lefty-leaning Facebook friends posted a status update that asked if anyone else was feeling guilty about not being at any of the Occupy Wall Street protests. “No,� I replied. “I feel employed.� So no, you will not see me at Occupy Seattle. Despite my complaints about wages and workload, I am still one of the lucky ones. Let those who can be there draw attention to this issue. And Lord knows there sure are a lot of folks with time on their hands these days. Nearly 10 percent, in fact. But I certainly Brian Beckley do empathize with Staff Writer the protesters and I absolutely relate to their cause. I too have watched my wages stagnate at a subsistence level while the rich continue to get richer. And I too feel that the balance in this country has shifted too far toward the wealthy and their corporations. That seems to be the main message of these demonstrations (and I hesitate to call it a movement yet) anyway, that for too long we have slanted the policies in this country to make the rich richer while the rest of us languish, at best. Creating new policies to try and bring that back to balance is a good idea, in my opinion. I mean, how is it that a guy who runs his business so far into the ground that it needs a government bailout still gets a $25 million bonus at the end of the year while I can’t even get a cost of living increase? And how is it that the people who intentionally crashed the economy by selling people a product and then betting against that sale — a type of fraud — have not yet been charged for their part in all this? Meanwhile, millions of people are losing their houses, their jobs and their life savings as rich dude after rich

Deadbeat Illinois serves as a warning The dictionary defines “deadbeat� as someone who deliberately avoids paying their bills. It’s an unflattering label, but for Illinois, it’s now their unofficial new nickname: the Deadbeat State. Wracked by corruption and drowning in debt, the state of Illinois has surpassed California as the national poster child for fiscal mismanagement. In desperation last January, state lawmakers approved a massive increase in the state’s personal and corporate income taxes. Individual income taxes rose by 66 percent while corporate taxes increased 45 percent. Lawmakers also approved a two percent cap on spending increases, but acknowledged that higher pension and health care costs would more than absorb those increases, leaving state services and programs high and dry. Governors of neighboring Indiana and Wisconsin responded by urging Illinois businesses to move their companies — and their jobs — to more business-friendly states. Despite the tax increases, Illinois still has a $12 billion deficit, nearly half the state’s budget. That doesn’t count more than $60 billion in unfunded pension liabilities. There simply is not enough money to pay the state’s obligations. In September, the stack of unpaid bills lying on the state comptroller’s desk totaled more than $5 billion. The state’s solution? Don’t pay the bills. An Illinois newspaper has created a searchable online database of the state’s unpaid bills that is more than 3,000 pages long, listing more than 166,000 unpaid debts, some

dating back to 2010. Illinois’ Anne Johnson is being forced to close her century-old pharmacy because of late state payments. A Chicago funeral home owner may have to stop burying poor people because the state is six months behind in its payments. Drowning in debt, the state is taking on even more debt. And because every major credit rating agency has downgraded the state, Illinois now pays millions more in interest rates to borrow money. So, why should we care what happens in Illinois? Because Illinois is a warning to us all. Illinois is by no means alone in its fiscal crisis. The recession has revealed systemic weaknesses in cities and states across the nation — weaknesses that were masked initially by a strong economy and later by federal stimulus money. But the stimulus money is gone amidst record federal deficits. The U.S. federal government borrows 40 cents of every dollar it spends. Our national debt — the total of our unpaid bills — is nearly $15 trillion. That works out to a $200,000 credit card debt for a family of four. That’s not just an illustration, that’s what American
taxpayers actually owe. According to the U.S. Treasury, taxpayers currently fork out $454 billion a year just to pay the interest on the national debt. In August, the U.S. credit rating was downgraded for the first time in history. Still, the borrowing and spending continues. Whose fault is it? To a great extent, it’s ours. We all want cuts, but not to our programs. We call for fiscal restraint from our elected officials but howl when our ox gets gored. But if we are to put our fiscal house in order as a state and as a nation, we must all be willing to take a hit. In Washington state, lawmakers should again audit tax incentives. Those that don’t pay for themselves, attract new investments or create or preserve jobs should be eliminated. Gov. Chris Gregoire and legislators need to jettison non-essential services or turn them over to the private sector. Most importantly, they must streamline our state’s costly, complex and overlapping regulations. Simply put, the cost of permits is out of whack in Washington state and it is killing employers in the private sector, non-profit groups — even other essential services like first responders, hospitals and schools. Washington state should not slide into the same category as Illinois. Becoming a deadbeat state is not an option! Don Brunell is the president of the Association of Washington Business.

dude holds the economy hostage, demanding lower taxes for themselves (they are at the lowest level ever) while sitting on literally some of the highest profits in the history of the United States. What more do we have to give them? On top of that, I know my history and a quick glance at the numbers indicates that at every time since the industrial revolution in which the United States economy has been the strongest and most prosperous — the 50s, 80s and 90s, for example — tax rates on corporations and the wealthiest Americans were higher
than they are now. The problem seems to be that the wealthy and their corporations have much more access to legislators than say, you or I. This, obviously, is because they have the time and the money to get their attention. Running for office in this country has become so expensive that candidates are forced to prostrate themselves in front of the wealthy to help keep them on their feet. And if everyone you spoke to asked for lower taxes for the wealthy, you might begin to think that is what everyone wants. But it’s not. In fact, a majority of people in this country (heck, a majority of

Republicans in several polls) want to see the wealthy pay more in these difficult times. But again, that won’t happen, even though the country supports it, because doing so will mean less money in reelection coffers. This goes back to the old fallacy (reaffirmed in the Citzens United case) that money is somehow free speech. Money is not free speech, money is volume and if you believe money is speech, I recommend you trying to pay for your next purchase with a witty rejoinder or motivational bon mot. Money provides you with the amplification to shout down all other ideas by making sure your voice is the loudest in order to get whatever tax loophole or industry-friendly law passed that you need. But it is NOT speech. One can only guess this is what happened to the president, who went from railing against the banks and promising justice and help on Main Street to collecting more money from Wall Street than any other candidate in the race thus far. Well done, sir. Way to read them the riot act. Perhaps that’s why the president is not receiving a free pass in these protests. I, like many in my generation and the one coming after (which represent the core of the Occupiers, though this is a protest that crosses all races and age levels) vote for candidates, not parties, and while I admit I voted for President Obama in 2008, I do not expect to do it again. Fool me once... At this point, I am voting for myself. (I turned 35 this year; Beckley For America 2012. Still plenty of room on the bandwagon...) But what has impressed me most about
the whole Occupy thing is that, unlike the Koch-funded, Dick Armey-organized and Fox-promoted Tea Party, it really seems to be a grassroots happening. The “We are the 99 percent� message is a good one and should remind us that we have the numbers even if they have the money. And it is time to take back our government. I don’t care if it is Big or Small, I just want it to represent me for a change. And it’s all happening without having to bring guns to town hall meetings and with correctly-spelled signs, unlike the Tea Party gatherings I have seen. It’s hard to know where this will go if any substantial policy points will come from it, but for now, you have to appreciate the energy of the demonstrators and the attention they are bringing the issue of wealth inequality. Meanwhile, as a New Yorker, I know several people who have been attending the original Occupy Wall Street demonstrations in Zuccotti Park in Manhattan. One of my friends is a bookkeeper and is even volunteering to be part of the group’s finance committee to help deal with the hundreds of thousands of dollars of contributions they are collecting. She is concerned that the demonstrators must create a budget and manage their dollars and track every penny to make sure things get done and vendors get paid and blah blah blah. It was a huge list of things to do and all of it required a high level of organization and putting people with the right skills in the right position. “Wow,� I commented, tongue firmly in cheek. “It sounds like you need to form a corporation.� But I’m not sure she saw the irony.

Survey results show district wants cuts-only budget For The Courier-Herald
As your state representative it is important to know your values and opinions. A few weeks ago I placed a survey in the local paper. I was pleased with the number of responses. The survey gave people an opportunity to answer questions and also allowed them to share their own ideas as well. The survey results are below and although people shared many other great ideas, I will touch on a few of the common themes multiple folks mentioned. The overall goal of the survey was to judge how the people felt during these difficult economic times. Jobs and the economy are clearly the most important issues we face, but I put in a couple of other questions that many people have been writing to me about in recent months. The results of the survey are as follows: The legislature should address the shortfall in our state’s current budget crisis; 61 percent said only through budget cuts, 7 percent said through only increasing revenue and 32 percent said that we should do a combination of both budget cutting and increasing revenue. After a 3 percent pay cut and 7 percent reduction in work force to state employ-
ees in the past budget; 50 percent believe that the cuts need to go further, 40 percent believe they were about right, and 10 percent believe that they went too far. The regulation of marijuana should be left up to; 60 percent said the individual states and 40 percent believe the federal government should continue to regulate it. Increased partisan bickering has impacted the efficiency of the state legislature; 72 percent believe it has effected it to a great degree, 6 percent believe it had a moderate effect, and 19 percent felt it has stayedthe same. With the rise of gang violence how concerned are people in our community; 58 percent said they were very concerned, 37 percent mildly concerned, and 5 percent not concerned at all. There is a current initiative that would allow liquor to be sold in large major food retail stores; 61 percent support the state getting out of the liquor business and 39 percent want to keep the system as it is. In our struggling economy here is how people felt about the security of their jobs; 7 percent very secure, 25 percent mildly secure, 22 percent were uncertain, 18 percent not secure, 10 percent had lost a job, and 15
percent either didn’t have a job or were retired. Concerning people’s confidence about the security and economic stability for other folks in their community; 14 percent felt very secure, 12 percent mildly secure, 41 percent uncertain, and 32 percent not secure. This was very revealing about general consumer confidence. Additionally here are a few other issues: Many people said the state should have a balanced budget. Actually we do. This is a common misconception between Washington state and the federal government. Unlike the federal government, which can print money and spend as much as they want, Washington’s constitution prohibits us from having a budget deficit. Our budget is balanced every two years. Our budget shortfall comes from declining revenue when the economy goes bad. Many people also commented on cutting waste in state agencies, however, the vast majority of them pointed out the Department of Social and Health Services.
This is probably due in part to the large number of investigative stores that have run in recent months in the media about welfare fraud. DSHS is also a very large portion of this state’s discretionary spending. There are currently several proposals that would break up DSHS and in some cases return many of its functions back to the county or local level. Many efficiencies and cuts have already been enacted to state agencies in the last two legislative sessions. Some, like the Department of Corrections, could not sustain further cuts without putting the

911 FROM 1 Bonney Lake teamed with Sumner, Edgewood and Puyallup to upgrade its system to 800 mHz, an approved system, and construct a new tower as well as buy new radios. Though the city has not taken an official position on the ballot measure, Mayor Neil Johnson said he is personally opposed to the measure and does not think it is good for the city or its residents.
“The city of Bonney Lake will be axed twice for the same system,� Johnson said. “Our system is basically up to speed. We’re ready to go.� Johnson said he thinks the county is asking for too much money for what is needed and said he believes cities should be reimbursed for money they have already spent on the issue. Johnson sent McCarthy a letter in July outlining the city’s position on the measure, but said he did not hear back. “These cities had the foresight to get ahead of the curve should not be coerced

into paying for a second system which may not be able to match the same level of service we enjoy now,� the letter reads. McCarthy said the county has studied the issue for several years and the proposal to combine the dispatch under a single roof makes sense because of economies of scale, as well as making sure all first responders are interconnected in the case of an emergency. “In these days and times, we need to look at collaborating,� McCarthy said, adding that Bonney Lake would benefit from a “rising tide� that would help all of the county’s 23 jurisdictions and said the city is “not an island.� “This is something bigger than all of us,� she said. “It’s about creating a unified system.� Under the proposal, the county would collect the additional sales tax of one cent per $10 purchase, estimated to bring in approximately $11 per year. All of the county’s 911 centers would be consolidated into two facilities, including one in east Pierce County and one in Tacoma, to provide an emergency backup should one center be unusable. All police and fire dispatch would be run out of the

The tax is also scheduled to sunset in 25 years or when the debt service is paid off. “We’re all bringing resources to the table,� McCarthy said. “This sets the stage for the future and we do meed to be communicating across jurisdictions.� McCarthy said all of the county’s firefighters, including East Pierce Fire and Rescue is in favor of the measure, as well as 83 percent of the county’s police agencies. But Johnson said he still sees the issue as the county not taking the initiative when the mandate for change came down and now trying to make up the money on those who did. “Our 911 system works just fine,� he said. “If there’s issues, fix the areas that have issues.� Pierce County Proposition 1 is on the Nov. 8 ballot.

Due to a misunderstanding, a story in the Oct. 12 issue of the Bonney Lake and Sumner Courier-Herald incorrectly stated that construction is scheduled for next summer at Sunset Chev Stadium. The work is still in the preliminary stages and has not yet been presented to the Sumner Board of Directors. However, because it is a possibility, the Relay for Life committee decided it could not wait for a final decision to begin planning next year’s event, prompting the move to Bonney Lake High School next year.

Transitions students ready to work State cuts

A Sumner School District program prepares special needs students for the job market after high school By Brian Beckley Staff Writer
For many students, graduation means the end of schooling and the beginning of college or a chance to head out into the real world and find a job. But for students with special needs, college may not be an option and finding a job right away might be a little more difficult than expected. That’s where the Sumner School District’s Community Based Transitions Program comes in. “Our function is to transition from high school to the real world of work,” said Grant Pennington, the teacher who runs the program with job coaches Betsie Pavilonis and Peg Stecky. “Secondary, our mission is to help the community.” All of the students in the class are between the ages of 18 and 21 and all have graduated high school, but for those with special needs, a high school diploma may not give them everything they need to begin their adult lives. From work ethic and time management to social skills, eye contact and simple things like budgeting, the class focuses on preparing its small group of special needs students for life after school. “It’s really how to live,” Pennington said. “It’s a real opportunity for these guys.” Based at Liberty Ridge Elementary, the transition class splits its time between classroom work and days spent out in the field, doing work around the community, such as landscaping work, woodworking or gardening. The class has even landed a regular gig at the Old Soldier’s Home in Orting and last year grew more than 300 pounds

Much of the work is service-based, such as helping earlier this summer to level land for the Bonney Lake Senior Center’s greenhouse or making new shutters for the Inlet Island clubhouse. Perhaps the biggest skill the students are learning, however, is confidence and social skills, things that can be difficult for students with disabilities such as those on the autism spectrum. Liberty Ridge Principal Laurie Dent said the social skills and graces are the biggest thing she has noticed about the students in the program as well. “That’s what we work on more than anything else,” she said.

The state may have passed a 1.9 percent cut in its funding to local school districts, but Sumner teachers will be compensated for the loss in furlough days and an annual stipend. The balancing act came as part of the teacher contracts ratified in September and voted in by the school board Oct. 12. The contract additionally maintains each teacher’s daily planning time and class size, introduces professional development opportunities, and conforms employee evaluation criteria to new statewide standards. In a release sent to media outlets, Superintendent Craig Spencer praised teachers commitment to continue teaching students even as contracts continued to be hashed out in the negotiation process. He said discussions resulted in “a fair contract for teachers despite challenging budget issues.” The contract team calculated the 1.9 percent loss of state funding in terms of actual financial compensation lost to teachers and determined that it represented 3.4 work days— per school year—worth of pay. Teachers will receive two compensatory furlough days, with the remaining 1.4 days being paid as an annual stipend. Teachers will receive a check for $258 this school year, and another for $518 next year. The funding for the stipends will come from existing accounts and not new money, district spokesperson Ann Cook said. Teachers will also have broader use of benefits, notably extended leave benefits for maternity, paternity and adoption. Teachers lost state Learning Improvement Days, which will be balanced out through student waiver days and late starts. On those days, teachers will have opportunities for professional development, to be determined. That will bring the school year down to 177 days, from 180. Leadership development will also be offered through the district’s internally developed Teacher Leader Program. New state evaluation criteria kick in this school year. The pilot program requires educators to submit loosely defined evidence of classroom accomplishments and self-declared goals for professional growth. “Teachers get to define what the evidence of their accomplishments is,” Cook said. “Evidence is really important, because it’s not focused on just teachers’ and students’ standardized test scores.” In order to promote stability, new teachers will not be subject to involuntary transfers between campuses during their first three years with the district.

SMS adopts Rachel’s Challenge Rachel Scott was the first student to be killed at Columbine High School. Her acts of kindness and compassion, coupled with the contents of her diaries have become the foundation for one of the most life-changing school programs in America, one that motivates students to positive change in the way they treat others and shows adults how they can be a part of the change. Rachel left behind an amazing legacy and a simple challenge to anyone
who would accept it – treat others with kindness and compassion and you just may change the world you live in. Rachel’s Challenge programs are age specific for K-12. Programs include school assemblies, student and staff training, community presentations and follow along strategies to sustain the impact of the initial motivation to improve the educational environment. It is a powerful partnership that can replace bullying and violent behavior
on school campuses with kindness and compassion so students can learn more in a safer, more respectful environment. At Sumner Middle School, it’s been a year and a half of changes, upgrades, and opportunities for students and staff to create the kind of school we want it to be. As part of the school’s commitment to help support students, they have chosen to participate in Rachel’s Challenge. Students will participate in a 60-minute presenta-

Senior Lungs could be trying to tell you something COPD has climbed the chart as a cause of death and perhaps nine of 10 cases stem from smoking Are you always stopping and resting because you’re short of breath, wheezing or coughing? Do you find that you have trouble with simple, daily activities like climbing stairs, carrying groceries or gardening? If this sounds like you, your lungs could be trying to tell you something. You could be experiencing symptoms of COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), a serious lung disease that over time makes it hard to breathe. Dr. James Kiley, director of the Division of Lung Diseases at the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, answers questions about COPD symptoms, risks and diagnosis. I haven’t heard much about COPD, is it a common disease? COPD, which recently surpassed stroke as the third leading cause of death in the United States, is more common than you think. Each year, COPD claims more lives than breast cancer and diabetes combined. Unfortunately, half of the people who have COPD are unaware that they are suffering from the disease. This is primarily because people who are at risk for COPD dismiss early symptoms as
Q. A.
a normal result of aging or being out of shape, therefore don’t think it warrants a visit to the doctor. What are the symptoms of COPD I should be looking for in myself and others? In COPD, sometimes referred to as emphysema or chronic bronchitis, the tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs are partially blocked, which makes it hard to breathe. Some of the most common symptoms you may notice in yourself or others are frequent shortness of breath, chronic cough, wheezing and excessive phlegm production. Take a look at things you do every day – like going up and down the steps, walking to the mail box, or shopping. Are these things more difficult than they used to be because you find yourself having to catch your breath? This could be COPD and it’s worth discussing with a health care provider. What are the most common causes of COPD? Smoking accounts for as many as nine out of 10 COPDrelated deaths. However, as many as one out of six people who have COPD never smoked. It can also be environmental; maybe you are exposed to chemicals, dusts and pollutants
Q. A.
where you live or work. Or maybe you are exposed to secondhand smoke. In some people, COPD is caused by a genetic condition known as alpha-1 antitrypsin, or AAT, deficiency. While very few people know they have AAT deficiency, it is estimated that close to 100,000 Americans have it. What should someone do if they are experiencing these symptoms? Regardless of their smoking history, if someone is experiencing these symptoms, they should talk with their health care provider and ask to take a simple breathing test called spirometry. It is quick and easy and can be taken right there in the doctor’s office. The earlier a person gets diagnosed with COPD and receives treatment, the better their chance to improve quality of life. My doctor has diagnosed me with COPD, how do I begin managing my symptoms? There is no cure for COPD, but there

are ways to make living with it a lot easier. If you smoke, the best thing you can to do prevent more damage to your lungs is to quit. Ask your doctor or health care provider about new options for quitting. The “COPD Learn More Breathe Better” campaign also partners with the American Lung Association and the COPD Foundation, which are both
great resources for smoking cessation information and support. Your health care provider may also suggest one or more of the following options: medications – usually in the form of an inhaler – pulmonary rehabilitation, exercise, avoiding exposure to pollutants that may further irritate your lungs or oxygen treatment in severe cases.

Planning makes the aging process smooth When it comes to financial planning, making smart investments and planning for the future aren’t your only fiduciary considerations. You also want to be sure you’re getting the most out of the money you spend on the process. Estate planning is an important component of your overall financial plan, regardless of your age, income or size of your estate. If you own property and have heirs, you need to think about estate planning. To do the job well, you’ll need the help of a team of professional accredited estate planners such as a certified public accountant, a lawyer, insurance professionals and financial planners and trust officers.

If you’re having problems hearing but haven’t yet done anything to address them, you’re not alone. Every day people put off getting help for hearing loss for a number of reasons that range from not wanting to show signs of vulnerability to being fearful of having to wear a bulky hearing aid. While these reasons are understandable, the benefits of getting hearing help far outweigh the reasons for avoiding seeing a hearing specialist. This is especially true when you take into account that hearing aids are more discreet than they’ve ever been – some can even be considered invisible. This makes it easy for someone to correct hearing loss without experiencing the discomfort or self-consciousness often associated with hearing aids.
Mistakes to avoid in estate planning 1. Lack of planning. 2. Unorganized finances. 3. Not having a will, trusts and durable powers of attorney or advanced health care directive. 4. Having out-of-date estate plan documents. 5. Not coordinating life insurance and retirement plan beneficiaries and ownerships with estate plans. 6. Not coordinating property title holdings with estate plans. 7. Not having enough life insurance. 8. Procrastination. 9. Not telling people where your planning paperwork can be found.
If you’re experiencing trouble hearing, here are five reasons to get help and visit a hearing care professional: 1. Increase your financial growth opportunity. If you have untreated hearing loss, there’s a good chance you aren’t reaching your full potential in the workplace, as you may be missing important items in conversation or unconsciously withdrawing yourself from your duties. Correcting hearing problems can allow you to perform your job to the best of your ability. 2. Improve your social life. Whether you know it or not, hearing problems can cause you to communicate ineffectively with others, which can hinder relationship building. It may also cause you to decide not to partici-
pate in activities or social gatherings as you otherwise would. 3. Improve your relationship with your family. Communication is even more important in the intimate relationships you maintain with family members. When communication is interrupted by hearing loss, it can weaken those relationships without the intention of doing so. Hearing loss can affect the subtle communication that is so important to maintaining a strong bond with your loved ones. 4. Today’s hearing aids are no longer obtrusive. For example, U.S. hearing technology company Starkey offers invisible hearing

(StatePoint) There may be some truth behind all those jokes about grandma behind the wheel. Even healthy adults with a safe driving record tend to make more driving errors as they age, such as failing to check blind spots, according to a new study published by the American Psychological Association. Most studies of older drivers have focused on people with dementia or other conditions that might impair their performance behind the wheel. This latest study was comprised of 266 volunteers age 70 to 88 who showed no signs of dementia, lived independently, and drove at least once a week. Normal aging causes distinct declines in brain functioning that could hinder driving skills, including the ability to focus despite distractions on the road, make quick decisions, and avoid other vehicles or pedestri-

An occupational therapist sat in the back seat and scored the drivers on various errors, including failure to check blind spots, speeding, sudden braking without cause, veering and tailgating. While men tend to think they are better drivers, they didn’t fare any better on the tests than women. Blind spot errors were the most common mistake (among both men and women), followed by veering across lanes and failure to use turn signals. During the tests, 17 percent of the drivers made critical and potentially hazardous

Today’s hearing aids address the most common concerns of wearers, including virtually eliminating feedback (buzzing and whistling) and providing noise management technology that identifies and preserves speech even in the noisiest environments.

The rate of critical errors during the driving test quadrupled from the youngest group, age 70 to 74, which had an average of less than one critical error, to the oldest group, age 85 to 89 with an average of almost four critical errors. There were no crashes during the tests, but participants who had reported an accident during the five years before the study also had a higher rate of critical errors. The participants had their vision checked before the driving test, but Anstey said more research is needed to determine if visual ability contributed to the high rate of blind spot errors.

Simple tips will keep all on their feet Forget aging gracefully. For today’s baby boomers, it’s more important than ever to stay healthy and active as they age. While growing older causes some unavoidable body changes, more boomers are focusing on healthy lifestyles that can help them prevent problems associated with aging – like mobility issues related to the feet and legs. Impairment of the lower extremities is a leading cause of activity limitation in older people, according to the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics. “Foot problems are a health concern that can lead to further complications like knee, hip and lower-back pain, all of which undermine mobility,” said Dr. Michael King, president of the American Pod iat r ic Med ic a l Association. “The human foot has been called the mirror of health. Systemic problems often related to age, such as diabetes, arthritis, and circulatory disease often can first be detected in the feet.” Fortunately, boomers can do a lot to maintain and even improve their foot health. APMA offers this advice to keep your feet pain free: Keep walking

Learn to recognize warning signs that often appear in the feet, including changes in skin color, swelling, numbness, pain, open sores that heal slowly, ingrown or fungal toenails, bleeding corns and calluses and dry cracks in the skin, especially around the heels. If you have diabetes, inspect your feet daily for cuts, bruises, sores or changes to the toenails. Wear thick, soft socks without seams that could rub or cause blisters. Always have new shoes properly fitted and never go barefoot, not even in your own home. Manage arthritis Arthritis can affect the structure and function of your feet. Common symptoms in the feet include joint swelling, joint pain or tenderness, redness or heat in joints, limited movement, early morning stiffness, and skin changes, including rashes and growths.

Panthers break off Hornets by their stingers, win 45-13 By John Leggett Staff Writer
In the battle for SPSL 3A football bragging rights on the Plateau between Enumclaw and Bonney Lake Friday at Pete’s Pool, the visiting Panthers initially got far more than they bargained for against a spirited 1-6 Hornet crew. Eventually, the cream rose to the top, as BLHS struggled to generate its customary 45 points. The Hornets were eventually swept aside 45-13, dropping to 1-7 overall and to 0-4 in league action. Bonney Lake rode the accurate right arm of quarterback Chris Brown, who threw for 236 yards and four secondhalf touchdowns. The Panthers are 6-2 overall and 2-2 in league play. The high-scoring Panthers will head into Friday’s engagement at Harry Lang Stadium against the 8-0 Lakes Lancers. Panther coach Chad Barrett hopes his troops perform better than they did in Enumclaw. “Give Enumclaw credit where credit is due,� he said. “The Hornets are a lot better team than their record indicated and they were playing out of their minds against us.�

What losing streak?
Setters in limbo this postseason
Staff Writer
In what coach Keith Ross could only describe as a crazy Friday night, Sumner High’s football squad broke a four-game losing streak in high fashion with the go-ahead, winning touchdown in the final 25 seconds of play, edging Washington 49-46. “Seven touchdown passes for us when we are a bread and butter running team, that’s wild,� Ross said. “We turn the ball over all over the place, but we scored all over the place,� Ross said. “Whoever had the ball last was going to win and that’s what happened.� Washington jumped on the board early with back-to-back touchdowns. Sumner scored on a 40-yard pass from freshman quarterback Chase Torgison to Taylor Fischlin.
David DeVries knocked in the point after for a 19-7 score at the end of the first quarter. Sumner more than matched Washington’s second quarter touchdown with two of its own. The first was an 84-yard TD pass from Torgison to DeVries, who also hit the PAT. The second was courtesy of Brendan Baker who grabbed a 4-yard pass from Torgison for the touchdown to make it 27-14 Washington at the half. Each team scored once in the third, Sumner on a 26-yard pass from Torgison to DeVries. Sumner came out firing with a trick play in the fourth period. After intercepting the ball in his role as defensive back, wide receiver Baker tossed the ball to Tayler Fischlin for a 60-yard reception in the

The Bonney Lake volleyball squad, which sat atop the South Puget Sound League 3A standings for most of the regular season, now finds itself in a nightmarish situation of limping around on the threshold of the postseason after a trio of its better players recently sustained potentially season-ending knee injuries. Now, the luckless contingent will have no other recourse but to stagger in to this Saturday’s subdistrict tournament at Auburn Mountainview High School at less than 100 percent efficiency. The chinks in the Panther armor began to appear early last week
when Bonney Lake hosted Auburn Mountainview. The Lions’ surprisingly swept the hobbled Bonney Lake bunch in straight sets Oct. 18, winning 5-12, 25-11, 25-9. Bonney Lake didn’t panic and took out its frustrations out on winless Decatur two days later, blowing the Gators out of the water 25-7, 25-12 and 25-17. Heading into subdistricts Saturday as the No. 2 seed out of the SPSL 3A, the Panthers had one more league contest on their schedule, hosting the rejuvenated Enumclaw squad Tuesday night.

Spartans get ‘em By John Leggett Staff Writer
The Sumner High volleyball squad came together in the recent “Climb The Peak� volleyball tournament at Glacier Peak High, to sweep a pair of South Puget Sound League 2A matches last week and get on track for postseason. As a consequence of wearing down Steilacoom on the road 17-25, 25-18, 25-23, 25-20 and then two days later hosting and eventually edging Eatonville 25-20, 16-25, 16-25, 25-14 and 15-13, the Spartans pushed their league mark to 8-6, likely sufficient to take fourth in the SPSL 2A and play in Saturday’s subdistrict at Washington High. The week began with Sumner visiting Steilacoom and prevailing in four games with great performances coming from Kendall Jamison, Hayley Steinman and senior setter Sara Heuett. “After that tournament in Snohomish we really began to gel as a squad and have since played some of our most solid volleyball of the season,� coach Mike Fitzpatrick said. After Steilacoom, Sumner hosted Eatonville Oct. 19. Action see-sawed back and forth as the match sifted down to an all-important sudden death set where the Sparts trimmed the Cruisers 15-13. Karissa Smith collected nine kills against Steilacoom early last week in the road tilt and then added another dozen kills in the cozy confines of The Fortress against Eatonville, to record 21 kills for a week’s toil, in spearheading the Sparts to their tandem of crucial SPSL 2A triumphs last week. Sumner played its final league encounter of the regular season at White River Monday and will spend the rest of this week preparing strategies for the Saturday’s subdistrict engagements.

But Panther receivers must have dropped six or seven passes in the first quarter alone, he said, and a touchdown was called back because of a holding call. Despite playing tough during in the early going, Enumclaw gradually fell behind 25-0 until with less than a minute before intermission, Hornet quarterback Tyler Carlson and Adam Cosgrove hooked up on a 75-yard pitch and catch. Bonney Lake worked out some of kinks in the halftime locker room and basically had its way with Enumclaw in the third and fourth stanzas. The Panthers began to gain some ground with their rushing attack as E.J. Harris and Joey Surber gained 80 yards each behind a formidable Bonney Lake offensive line. Additionally, Brown traumatized Enumclaw’s secondary in the second half with mid-range touchdown strikes to Kaleb Zahnow, Zach Zaragoza, Robert Combs and Keenan Jackson. Enumclaw added a second TD when Ricky Orris scored from 12 yards out. Enumclaw will trek across the Narrows Bridge Friday night to tangle with a Peninsula High group which at 3-1 in league and 7-1 overall, appears to be destined for playoff glory. “Peninsula will probably be the toughest, punch-outthe-yardage team we will face all year, because Peninsula’s physicality is unmatched in this league,� EHS coach Don Bartel said. “They don’t even bother trying to finesse you, they flat grind it out and bury you in the process.� Peninsula is led by ground-pounding machine Danny Welstad, who is the leading rusher in the SPSL 3A with well over 2,000 yards in the books already this year and who rambled for six TDs during last Friday’s 48-3 drubbing of Decatur.

Jordan Mezias put the Pats back in the lead on a 6-yard run. With the clock ticking down, Torgison hit running back Tyler Salisbury on a 19-yard reception for a slim 47-46 Sumner lead and Salisbury carried the ball over the line for the 2-point conversion to give the Spartans the 49-46 final. Sumner racked up 546 yards total offense. Torgison, who stepped in for starter Aaron Clark, went 17 for 28 for 370 yards and six touchdowns. DeVries caught six passes for 205 yards and went 5 for 5 on PATs. The Patriots tallied 578 yards total offense, 391 on the ground. Defensively, middle linebacker Josh Wilde replaced an injured Jon Mayer in the second half and racked up 13 tackles. The game also had a delay as Brandon Tuilaepa was taken from the field on a stretcher. “As he’s being carried off the field he’s saying, ‘all I want is for us to get a win,’ and ‘I need my hands free to wave to my teammates,’� Ross said. Ross said Tuilaepa had tingling down his spine and was taken to a local emergency room, but has been cleared. The Spartans close out the regular season Friday with league-leading White River at home in Sunset Chev Stadium. Kickoff is 7 p.m. “White River is playing for a league title and is coming down here ready to roll,� Ross said, but his Spartans should be ready. “One good win can do wonders for a program.�

SHS Cross Country
Lady runners Sparts advance to districts scorch earth Staff Writer
When the Sumner Spartan cross country squad competed at Saturday’s subdistrict meet at Fort Steilacoom Park, it lit up the competition for the most part and was very consistent. The way the 2A phase of the sub-=district meet is set up, the top eight teams and the top 40 individuals moved on to Saturday’s state-qualifying round at American Lake Golf Course in Lakewood, where the top five teams and top 25 individuals will qualify for participation at the state meet at Pasco’s Sun Willows Golf Course in early November. Both the SHS male and female factions will be advancing to American Lake as the boys finished fifth overall and the girls finished third. Both had productive afternoons as sophomore Abi Hensler and senior Gabby Phelps crossed the finish line of the damp course in 12th and 14th places with times of 20 minutes, 44.9 seconds and 21:11.03. This tandem was followed by Natasha Wilson, 22nd, 21:47.3; Robi Long, 25th, 22:07.3; Amanda Riley, 34th, 22:51; and Allie Sims, 42nd, 23:46.1. On the boy’s side, it was much the same success story only to a little less extent as Coltin Tanner and Cory Brandt finished 14th and 24th overall with clockings of 17:11 and 17:24. Behind them were Arturo Perez, 34th, 18:04.9; Reid Selmer, 42nd, 18:20.3; Shaun LaVigne, 46th, 18:35.6; and Josh Goodsell, 52nd, 19:06.4. Sumner’s girls wound up claiming the SPSL 2A crown for the second straight year going 12-0 and also earned the prestigious sportsmanship award. The boys finished

When the Bonney Lake cross country team participated in the subdistrict meet Saturday at Fort Steilacoom’s scenic 5K course, the girls team finished third overall and the boys faction will send a tandem of harriers to American Lake Golf Course in Lakewood Saturday for the West Central District jog fest. The Panther ladies scorched the ground at Fort Steilacoom with Marie Wilson and Sierra Espinal zipping across the finish line in third and fifth place, respectively, with clockings of 19 minutes, 29 seconds and 19:39. That dynamic duo was shadowed by Haley Theriault in 17th, Madisen Liddle in 28th, Yodi Lawes 39th, 22:40, Hope Dickson, 40th, 22:42 and McKenzie Voeller in 41st place with an accounting of 22:43, which head coach Andrew Foster said played a distinctive role in Bonney Lake finishing third. The entire Panther girls squad will make the trip to American Lake. The male segment of the BLHS cross country contingent was not so fortunate, as its team will not be moving on, but a pair of its runners will be, as the top 25 individuals in each gender progress to the next level. Nolan Weber completed the splashy course in 22nd place overall with a time of 17:28 and nipping at his heels was Ryan McGraw, who wound up in 23rd place only two ticks of the stop watch later.

SHS Girls Soccer
Second title in two weeks Sumner High’s girls soccer squad socked away its second consecutive South Puget Sound League 2A title last week, blanking Washington 8-0 Oct. 18 before defeating the Fife Trojans 1-0 in Thursday’s crown clincher. The nail-biting triumph over Fife gave Sumner an untarnished 10-0 league record, while its closest competition, Fife, fell to 8-2. The Spartans got their perfect week under way by blanking the Patriots. The onslaught over the 0-9 Patriot bunch was in little doubt from the meeting’s outset as Sumner poured it on to lead 8-0 at intermission. The first tandem of tallies were unassisted and fired in by Kaylie Rozell and Sarah Carter, followed

The Trojans, who have been nipping at the Spartan’s heels throughout the 2011 campaign, gave Sumner all the competition it wanted and more. Five minutes into the second half, Ellie Degoede broke the scoreless tie, drawing first blood with a blazing fireball just out the reach of the Fife goalie. The solitary score stood

Fierce competition between Wolfpack Panthers shut out Mt. View Fife and others and Wolverines left in wake BLHS Soccer
By Kevin Hanson Editor
Though the Valley Wolfpack and Enumclaw Wolverine Silver Bullet teams don’t keep score, the competition between the teams Oct. 9 at Enumclaw’s Pete’s Pool was fierce. The Valley Wolfpack Silver Bullets rocked the
Wolverines, starting with the 89ers, who hung tough and finally got in the end zone via Tyson Simons. The Sweet Peas scored big against Enumclaw, kicking off the contest with Kobe Landry’s 43-yard return for a touchdown on the opening play of the game. Trey Rainwater also raised eyebrows with his 63-yard run.
Two victories last week, including a crucial Oct. 18 shutout over league-leading Auburn Mountainview, allowed Bonney Lake High to jump into a first-place tie in the South Puget Sound League 3A standings. The successful week of play also included an easy, Thursday night trouncing of the winless Lakes Lancers. The victories improved the Panthers league mark to 6-2, the same as Mountainview and one game ahead of both Decatur and Enumclaw. The race
SHS Swim
for the regular season title wraps up this week. Bonney Lake traveled to Enumclaw for an important Tuesday showdown and will close out the campaign Thursday with a trip to Peninsula. Thursday’s easy victory over Lakes featured three goals by Gabby Robinson and the shutout goalkeeping of Madi Lowry. Also scoring goals were Megan Riggs, Carly Mingo, Olivia Ottinger and Ashley Cade. The big win over Auburn Mountainview came courtesy of second-half goals by Alicia Bowman and Madi Adams, along with the effort by Lowry in the net.
DO YOU SUFFER FROM
GRASS POLLEN ALLERGIES? FALLING FLAT As many as one person in four has flat feet, which tends to increase with age and may result from congenital bone deformities or injuries to the bone or soft tissue. Most frequently, however, flatfootedness afflicts adults who experience overstretching and degeneration of the posterior tibial tendon on the inner side of their ankles. Those involved in weight-bearing occupations or who are very active or overweight may also be at increased risk. While many flat-footed individuals do not have problems, others may overpronate and go on to develop foot, ankle, knee, hip, and back pain. Referral to a physical therapist may lead to an individualized treatment program involving stretching and strengthening exercises designed to alleviate pain, fatigue, tenderness, and swelling. Pain in your feet, from flat feet or from any other problem, can be a real pain in the neck. At Performance Physical Therapy, our therapists understand how devastating foot pain can be to your everyday activities and we will work with you and your doctor to create a regimen that alleviates the pain and mitigates the effects of flat feet. In addition, we can help you with recovery from surgery, injury, or an accident. Call 253-826-8520 or 360802-6756 if you would like an appointment. We are located at 21525 Highway 410, Suite B., Bonney Lake and 2776 Griffin Ave., Enumclaw. Physical therapy with a personal touch. P.S. Recent research indicates that flat feet contribute to arthritis.
If you (or your child) suffer from grass pollen allergies, you may want to know about this study. We’re enrolling a clinical research study of an investigational drug. The investigational drug may help prevent the body’s reaction to grass pollen, rather than to just treat allergy symptoms. What’s more, this once-a-day tablet is designed to be placed under the tongue. Study participation includes study-related care and study medications for the grass pollen season at no cost. 7R ¿QG RXW LI \RX RU \RXU FKLOG DUH HOLJLEOH WR SDUWLFLSDWH DQG WR OHDUQ DERXW WKH ULVNV DQG EHQH¿WV DVVRFLDWHG ZLWK SDUWLFLSDWLRQ LQ WKLV VWXG\ SOHDVH FRQWDFW XV WRGD\

Sumner High’s girls swim team left Fife swallowing chlorine after taking an Oct. 18 victory. The Spartans beat Fife 92-88. Madison Munger achieved a state-qualifying time of 2 minutes, 5.58 seconds for the 200-yard freestyle. Sami Hendricks placed first in the 50 freestyle and earned her best time of the year at 24.80. McKenna Roberts placed second in diving with a 99.3 score. “The gutsy swims came when Roberts and (Kallen) Gustafson turned around and swam as part of the 200 free relays,� Coach Dana Powers said. “(Alicia) Ditty, Roberts, Gustafson and (Elizabeth) Martin placed second with a 1:57.83.� The meet was close at the end with a tenuous two point lead on Fife. What pushed the team over the edge was a fine showing by the 400 freestyle relay team. The girls also defeated Steilacoom Thursday with a score of 113-66.

up as a stingy Spartan defense was able to keep Fife at bay. The Spartans will be preparing strategies for a sterling second season, which commences at 3 p.m. Nov. 5 at Renton’s Memorial Stadium for a West Central District showdown against a foe yet to be decided. The Spartans were granted a subdistrict bye and earned an unencumbered free pass to move on directly to the next level, the high-pressure district scene.

This is your chance to celebrate October by planning for spring. What you do now will pay off all spring and into the summer. Dig out or mulch over weeds in your beds, replace ugly or struggling trees and shrubs with better behaved selections and don’t forget to feed the lawn at least once before December with a winter lawn food.

Responding to decade-long population growth in the east and south ends of district boundaries, the Sumner School Board has redrawn its director boundaries for more equal representation of its constituents. Like many public legislatures, the board evaluates its boundaries every ten years once new federal Census figures become available. Washington state requires school districts to develop a plan for adjusting their bounds to the population within eight months of receiving Census data.

Not all support 911 ballot measure Bonney Lake mayor says city has already spent $3 million to upgrade its system By Brian Beckley Staff Writer
Pierce County voters are being asked to approve a 0.1 percent sales tax increase to pay for an upgrade to the county’s 911 system that
County Executive Pat McCarthy said would bring all dispatch services under the same roof. “We’re looking at trying to take a system that’s disparate and unconnected and connect it,� she said. The move is predicated by a 2004 FCC mandate to move communications services to a narrower broadcast band that must be completed by January 2013, but McCarthy said the main driver for the ballot measure is fixing the “Swiss cheese approach to radio commu-

nications� that currently serves the county. “Why not capitalize on this opportunity to really look at making a more efficient system for everyone?� she asked. But not all are on board, including many in the city of Bonney Lake, which has already spent more than $3 million to upgrade its own communications facilities following the mandate, money being paid off through debt service.
