Kent School District officials are considering combining two classes in the Cedar Valley Support Center into one for the 2013-14 school year due to low enrollment. The Support Center, which is located at Cedar Valley Elementary, serves special education students. There are currently 12 students served in two classrooms. According to the district website, the Support Center, “is designed for students who cannot succeed in regular education settings or our Integrated Program, even with the supports of accommodations and modifications to the curriculum.” Stated goals of the program include teaching academic, life and social skills, helping students to be as independent as possible, and how to be a self advocate, with knowledge of how to get the
Covington’s Planning Commission needs a new member, and soon. A vacancy opened up recently and with a series of important issues to consider, explained commission chairman Daniel Key in an email interview, it is vital to get the spot filled by June 1. Key wrote that he has served nearly eight years on the commission. A Covington native, Key wrote that he moved back to raise his family here, and since then is proud and impressed with how the city has grown since it incorporated in 1997. “I have always been civic minded and when I saw an advertisement in the Reporter for an opening I applied,” Key wrote. “I had no agenda or specific issue to address. I just felt this was a great opportunity to serve and help Covington continue its success.”

Relay for Life provides family way to fight back BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
Jennifer Leverton wanted a way to fight back after her husband Marty went through treatment for a rare form of bone cancer in October. “I had to figure out a way to turn this into a positive experience,” Leverton said. “Just anything not to sit here. That’s how I found Relay. I started researching things to keep busy.” Leverton, who lives in Covington with her husband and two children, heard about Relay for Life from a friend who asked her to participate. She called her friend who invited Leverton to a planning meeting the following
week. This journey began with a sore throat, Leverton said. Marty mentioned the symptom. And then it wouldn’t go away. He started off at urgent care. He was given a numbing spray. The sore throat persisted. Marty went to his primary care doctor who referred him to an ear, nose and throat specialist. Leverton said the ENT doctor couldn’t put a tube down Marty’s throat so he referred him to a specialist at University of Washington Medicine. In July, the Levertons found out Marty had cancer, chondrosarcoma of the cricoid cartilage in the voice box. “It felt like somebody pulled the

pin on the hand grenade, tossed it then turned around and ran,” Leverton said. “Turns out he has such a rare type of cancer … we didn’t have many places to turn.” Marty Leverton is a police officer in Renton. He is a motorcycle officer trained in drug recognition. After his diagnosis, Marty was at a conference for that realm of his job and spoke with a doctor he’d gotten to know, his wife explained. This doctor he spoke with at the conference referred Marty to a physician in Boston, Dr. Steven Zeitels. Leverton said Dr. Zeitels took the time over the phone to talk to her husband and was just the kind of physician they were looking for so they flew to Boston. “Dr. Zeitels explained everything to us,” Leverton said. There are just 271 documented cases of this type of cancer. So few, in fact, that there isn’t enough [ more RELAY page 7 ]

Interview with Olympian Courtney Thompson Cedar Heights seventh grader Jordan Fong’s Q&A with Thompson, a 2003 Kentlake High school graduate Editor’s note: Jordan Fong, a seventh grade student at Cedar Heights Middle School interviewed Olympian Courtney Thompson who graduated from Kentlake in 2003 and represented the United States at the 2012 games in London.
you focus on volleyball? CT: For some reason the recruiting came a lot easier for me in volleyball I was getting more attention there than I was in other sports. We also did well in high school so that always makes it more fun. What are your future plans after volleyball? CT: I would love to coach someday. I have been fortunate enough to have some amazing coaches throughout my entire life that have made me who I am as an athlete and as a person. They have all meant a lot to me in my life, and I would love to be able to give back a little bit and make a difference in an athlete’s life the way they did for me. I think eventually it would be fun to be an athletic director at a University, that is something that has always sounded fun to me.
How did you choose which position you were going to play in volleyball? CT: The first coach I ever had put me at the setter position I think because I was short and liked to talk a lot. It just kinda stuck and I’ve been there ever since.
What was one of your favorite moments with your teammates while you were on KJVBC, UW, and the USA Olympic team? CT: I have been fortunate to have a lot of great moments. A lot of the most memorable and meaning ones have been off the court — just those fun moments spent with your teammates on the bus and

The first day we got to London and got all our new USA gear was pretty cool. Everyone on the team was really excited it was just a neat moment to experience and one that I have dreamed about for a long time.
What is a typical day like when you are training with the Women’s USA Olympic team? CT: On a typical day with the USA team I get to the gym around 8:15 a.m. for treatment - then we practice from 9 a.m. to noon or 1 p.m., then we shower and eat lunch... get treatment if needed. Rest a little maybe watch some film, or just relax. Then we either have weights from

I enjoy being surrounded by other competitive women who compete their butts off every day, and I love the constant challenge that sports brings. At a high level, you have to be physically, mentally, and emotionally ready to compete every time you step on the court. Learning how to do all of those things better is really hard, and I love that challenge.

[ THOMPSON from page 2] about the entire experience. It really hit me early on that I was getting to do something that so many people have always dreamed about...truly, and because of that I didn’t want to take one second for granted. I tried my best to enjoy everything about the experience, and do everything I could to represent the millions of people that would have loved to be where I was for those two weeks. It was an incredibly humbling and wonderful experience. How did you encourage and motivate your teammates when you faced challenges against other
teams? CT: I believe my job as a setter is to make those around me better, and that’s always my goal. To help my teammates be successful. I have found that the best way to do that is to work really hard for people with a servant type attitude, and when a teammate feels you working as hard as you can for them they will in turn play hard for you. I believe in my teammates, and that comes from watching the thousands of hours of training we’ve done to prepare for those hard moments so the belief that they would succeed was genuine and I think that’s something teammates can feel.

As a fellow volleyball player I have sprained my ankle multiple times, did you sustain any injuries during your athletic career? If so what challenges did you encounter and how did you get through them? CT: Injuries are really difficult to deal with. The hardest part is all the mental challenges that come with having to sit out. Like anything in life, you can only control what you can control and often times, an injury is something we have no control over. All we can do is move forward and use all that disappointment, and frustration that

What kind of diet do you maintain during training? CT: I try to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables every day. I also eat some sort of lean protein at every meal, like eggs, salmon, Greek yogurt, chicken etc. I eat a lot of oatmeal and whole grain breads as well, and a ton of nuts and seeds. I drink green tea and yerba mate a lot too, it’s my favorite! If I am really craving something that isn’t good for me like pizza, or chocolate or whatever I will eat it, just not every day.

chasing your Olympic dreams? CT: My friends and family are everything to me and I wouldn’t be where I am today without them. When you’re going through any challenge in life it forces you to remember where you come from, and where your strength comes from. Mine has always come from my family and they were huge for me this entire summer. What was your favorite destination while you were traveling with your teammates? CT: I’ve been lucky to see a lot of great places... a few that come to mind are Montreau, Switzerland, and Brazil. Just so that I can learn more about you, I am going to ask you some personal questions… If you had a chance to change something from your past what would it be? CT: There are certainly moments I’d like to have a redo on so to speak... but I can’t think of anything specific at the moment. Nothing hugely significant anyhow. What was life growing up in the Thompson fam-
ily? Did you have siblings and pets? CT: Life growing up in the Thompson family was busy, competitive, and very fun. I have two older brothers who I am very close to and they’ve always been a huge part of my life and are still my two best friends. We have one dog a labradoodle named Rylee and she’s awesome! I miss her a ton when I’m gone. What was your major at UW? With the schedule demand for volleyball and training, were you able to complete your degree within the four years? CT: I majored in business administration and yes, I was able to finish my degree on time. As a seventh grader playing on KJVBC, school basketball, soccer, and maintaining a high GPA, what advice would you give me to stay focused and continue my education and staying active in sports? CT: My best advice would be to work hard to be the best that YOU can be. Be true to yourself, be a good friend, and if you love something do it as much as you can and work hard it. And most importantly, be nice to everybody.

Facebook is an interesting social network for me. I’m also on Twitter and LinkedIn, but, I’m most active on Facebook. I have about 300 friends on Facebook which is a mix of people I know through work, through school and online forums. On a fairly regularly basis I get story ideas on Facebook. In late April I got an interesting request from Dave Wright, the Advanced Placement statistics teacher at Tahoma High, via the site. After his students take the AP test in early May, Wright gives them a project to work on until the end of the school year for which they conduct a statistical analysis. The kids sample a population and predict what that entire population thinks based on the sample results. Wright said he asks community members to come up with project ideas. He often approaches those in the business sector. He asked me if there was anything we wanted to know about a certain population so we batted a couple of ideas back and forth. Then I filled out a form with my request and contact information. About two weeks ago I got an email from one of Wright’s students who asked to schedule a time for her group to meet with me about my request. I met with them Monday and explained what I was looking for: an evaluation of voting patterns since 2004. I want to see if there has been a shift in patterns in Covington or Maple Valley or if they’ve remained consistent since I wrote a story about voting demographics in 2006. I’m also curious if there’s been demographic shifts — socio-economic or racial or both — that might be correlated to any voting shifts. It was really cool to spend 30 minutes with these students as they explained the purpose of the project and asked me questions to clarify the scope of the investigation I’m asking them to conduct. I was quite impressed with their thought process as well as the fact they were taking the project seriously. There’s a month until they graduate, they took the AP test, Wright could easily let them coast through the end of
the year with some simple assignment. And they could fall prey to the senioritis that plagues so many 12th graders so close to that diploma. Instead, this a final project and a significant portion of their grade. The idea is to take all the things they’ve learned over the course of the year and to put them together into this project. It’s an awesome idea. I also like that the kids not only are analyzing data but they’re working with community members on the project and also will develop questions to ask real people so they can collect their own data. This is what educators refer to as authentic assessment. It builds that bridge between the classroom and the real world. It helps teenagers see that what they’re learning has relevance outside of school. Wright told me he didn’t reach out to me for an article, but, I was so happy to help and enjoyed the first meeting with the kids so much I wanted to tell my readers about it. I look forward to the second meeting when the students bring
Cash mobs give more than cash One of the hardest things anyone can face is raising children alone without money, housing or food. It can be demeaning, frustrating, emotionally devastating and so much more. Hudson and I experienced this first hand when we were living up on the Eastside. We needed resources that would keep us from spiraling even lower and from falling into a never ending cycle of hopelessness that so many single parent families face on a daily basis. We were so blessed to find Hopelink in our com-
munity — it truly was an absolute blessing and broke all the chains that we were fighting. We were able to pull ourselves out of the negativity and lead a wonderful life as we moved forward. Three years later we moved to Maple Valley when I married Steve and ultimately started our business. We asked our banker to tell us about some of the local nonprofits in our community that we could partner with. He started to list a few and when he got to Vine Maple Place we told him to stop right there. We knew it was a perfect fit! VMP is a lot like Hopelink and I could immediately see the blessings it was providing single parent families right here in our community. Two weeks after making the decision to partner with VMP I attended the annual Planting Seeds of Hope breakfast that happens in May — what a phenomenal event.

back their results. This is one of the many reasons why Tahoma has a reputation for being a good school district. It’s no wonder people — even my husband and I — moved to Maple Valley because they are so impressed with the school district. This connection to this group of students happened because I am Facebook friends with teachers and coaches I know. There are some journalists who are hesitant to connect with sources through social media, particularly Facebook, but I am often pleasantly surprised. I’ll report back after the students present their results. I’m looking forward to it.

I cried with joy the entire time because of the hope this brings to these families. Not only are clients given hope but they also receive the love and respect some of these parents have never had their entire lives. When families come to VMP they are provided housing, skill training, mentor programs and a variety of other assistance to help them get back on their feet and break the cycle of hopelessness. As these families work at getting back on their feet they also need the help and hope Maple Valley Food Bank and Emergency Services provides. Not only does the Food Bank provide recipients with food, paper products, cleaning supplies and so on that are needed to run a home on a daily basis, they also have services to help keep families from becoming homeless.

Again the administration is trying to combine the Cedar Valley Support Center to become K-6 due to low enrollment. This is a disappointing decision to make for our students with special needs. Our children are in the support center because they need support and are guaranteed an individualized education. Putting children of such a diverse age range in a classroom with only one teacher and only a few (paraeducators) is irresponsible educating
[ CASH from page 4] assistance so that families don’t lose the roof over their heads, have access to transportation to get them to work, keep food on the table and keep the lights on. They do an amazing job of keeping a little bit of hope for these families and not putting parents in the position of telling their children they do not have food for dinner. As a community we are so blessed to have both of these resources right here in town. But they need our help. On June 4 we are doing a Giving Cash Mob. Not

Letters should be about 250 words. Letters may be edited for style, clarity and length. All letters to the editor will require
or at best, simply a lack of understanding. The district is federally mandated to supply their children a free education that is tailored to their individual needs. I’d like to see a curriculum plan for how this is going to happen for a classroom of children ages 5-12. You would never see a general education class combined over more than two grades. How is it OK to make our children with special needs be in a classroom that spans seven grades? Instead of making this change, I challenge the Kent School District to resolve this problem. We have three Title I schools within three
miles of each other. A solution could be to have a K-2 program at one school and a 3-6 program at another. There are probably many other solutions available, but putting all of our students with special needs in one classroom makes absolutely no sense. The reason I am writing this letter is because of my son Nate. He has a diagnosis of high functioning autism. He transferred to Cedar Valley four years ago for kindergarten. He spent most of his day in the support center while getting some time with a paraeducator in the general education room. Slowly over the years he
has become fully integrated into general education and will probably — we haven’t had his IEP meeting for this year — move out of the SC program and into the IP program. This is an achievement that I have dreamed of for so long! There is no way that he would have made it without the amazing efforts of his special ed teacher, Mrs. Hudgens and his paraeducator, Shannon Davis. They have been able to keep in close contact with me regarding his progress, letting me know what to work on at home. This has been invaluable. These educators are helping my son be as successful as pos-
only will this give you a chance to learn more about each organization you will be able to contribute first hand. Tours of the Food Bank will be available to understand how recipients receive food and toiletries when they visit. VMP will have a video presentation of its amazing program and the opportunity to sign up to tour their community. This night will show you how families are changed forever through both of these programs. Please feel comfortable bringing your children if you feel this is something
that they can learn from. Fajita Z’s will be set up so that you are also able to purchase dinner as you hang out and chat.

Heart Health Awareness Has a Long Way to Go dietary cholesterol, which is only present in animal food products, was one likely reason, as was a smaller intake of saturated fat and sodium. Especially sodium, often added in high doses to processed foods, is believed to contribute to high blood pressure and heart disease. While the researchers did not investigate other factors than diet that could have benefitted the vegetarians, they are confident that the abstinence from meat, in particular red meat, has made the difference. “The effect is probably at least partly due to the lack of red meat – especially meat high in saturated fat – in vegetarian diets,� said Dr. Francesca Crowe, professor of nutritional epidemiology at Oxford University, England, who led the study. “The extra fruits and vegetables and higher fiber in a non-meat diet could also play a role,� she added. Besides diet, insufficient physical activity is most often named as a cause of heart disease. In fact, studies have found that sedentary behavior can be as harmful as smoking. If nothing else, there is at least a “statistically significant association between a lack of exercise and coronary heart disease,� said Dr. Carl Caspersen, a researcher at the CDC. None of these findings are surprising. We have long known that heart disease is a mainly lifestyle-related illTimi Gustafson
HEALTHY LIVING
The American Heart Association, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and other health organizations remind the public to pay more attention to the issue of heart health – and for good reason. Heart disease remains the number one cause of death in the United States, ahead of cancer and respiratory diseases. Well over half a million Americans die every year from heart problems, according to data collected by the CDC. Poor diet, sedentary lifestyle, stress and sleep disorders are among the contributing factors. Smoking and alcohol/drug abuse also play a role. The Standard American Diet, also known as the Western Diet, is notorious for its preferences for meat products and processed foods, which often contain high amounts of sugar, salt and refined grains. There is mounting evidence that the changing dietary trends of the past few decades, not only in America but also increasingly around the world, are responsible for the growing prevalence of heart disease. Diet changes are among the first steps experts recommend for better heart health. A recent study from Great Britain showed that participants who adhered to a strictly vegetarian diet were less at risk of developing heart disease than their non-vegetarian counterparts. Lower levels of
ness, as is diabetes. The good news is that we are not helpless in the fight against health problems that are, at least in part, of our own making. Raising awareness is an important first step, but it can’t stop there. Showing sympathy and expressing support for heart patients by wearing red clothing is laudable, and I applaud all those who take up the cause. But we also have to turn our insights into action through education, policy changes and regulations. Many Americans still know too little about the potentially catastrophic consequences their diet and lifestyle choices can have for their health and what they can do differently to avoid further damage. As with most bad things in life, we tend to believe that they only happen to others – until they happen to us. When it comes to the heart, it may then be too late.

How to keep your child safe around windows in warm weather With the recent warm weather, it’s a good time to remind parents of the dangers that open windows pose to children. Even screened windows can be dangerous: Window screens keep bugs out, they
don’t keep children in. Nationwide, thousands of children are injured or killed from window falls every year. The most common victims are toddlers who fall out of an open bedroom window with a screen. To prevent window falls, follow these tips from the
Center for Childhood Safety at MultiCare Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital & Health Center: 1. Move furniture away from windows and balconies. A bed, couch and other furniture allows a child to get higher and closer to a window.
2. Only open windows outside of a child’s reach or climbing distance. Open double-hung windows from the top. A child can fall from a window opened as little as 5 inches. 3. Every year, many children fall out of open windows with window

Lupus occurs when the body’s immune system turns on its own tissues and organs and begins to attack them. Lupus can affect the joints, skin, kidneys, blood cells, brain, heart, and lungs. The disease is chronic and inflammatory, and it can often be quite difficult to diagnose because so many of its symptoms can mimic other problems or diseases. The symptoms of lupus depend on which part of the body the illness affects. However, lupus does have one distinct hallmark: a butterfly-shaped rash that spreads over both of the cheeks. This rash occurs on most of the people who have lupus, but not all of them. There is currently no cure for lupus, but some treatments are successful in helping patients manage the symptoms. Lupus symptoms vary from one patient to another. Your healthcare provider will attempt to rule out other conditions, including other connective-tissue diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis, an infection, and cancer). To schedule an appointment, please call Southlake Clinic at (253) 395-1972. Our primary care providers are part of a multi-specialty physician network and are also available on Saturdays.

screens. Window screens will not keep your child from falling. 4. If you must open a window within a child’s reach or climbing distance, install an operable window guard. Window guards have horizontal bars no more than 4 inches apart that screw into the side of a window frame. Guards can be special ordered from a hardware store or over the Internet. 5. For windows that can’t be used for fire escape, install stops that keep a window from opening wider than 4 inches. These can be purchased at a hardware store for about $2. Some new windows come
with stops. 6. Plant grass or shrubbery around your home to soften the impact surface in case of a fall. 7. Monitor window safety at your child care location and anywhere children visit.

www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com [ RELAY from page 1] evidence to predict how likely it is the cancer could metastasize. The only way to completely remove the cancer, Leverton said, would be to remove Marty’s voice box. “But for Marty who is in his early 40s to have his voice box removed, with two small children and a career with many years ahead of him, it was like being hit with a ton of bricks,” Leverton said. “Now it’s a balancing act of removing enough of the tumor so on a daily basis he could breathe. There are no other treatments for Marty like chemo or radiation because this tumor is cartilage based instead of tissue based.” Through all of this, Leverton said, the amount of support the family received was tremendous. Donations poured in from all over the world, from police, from firefighters, and everyone in between. That was needed because Dr. Zeitels’ practice is so specialized he does not accept insurance. After spending three weeks in Boston for the surgery and recovery, the Levertons returned, and the family struggled to cope with the whirlwind of events from which they just emerged.
And Leverton found Relay. “It seemed like the right place to get involved especially when I found out that a portion of the money raised through Relay stays here in the community,” she said. “It makes me feel like I’m directly helping someone, I don’t know who they are, but I’m helping someone in the same town I live in.” As the work toward Relay began for Team Marty, Leverton said, support swelled. Teams are limited to 15 members. So, Leverton said, they formed Team Marty Survivors and moved her husband as well as her sister, who is also battling cancer, to that group. Then a third team was formed. In one event, the goal to raise $100 per team member, was met. Leverton said they threw a shindig called the Less Cancer, More Birthdays party. There more than 100 guests and $2,600 was raised. Next up this weekend is a cul-de-sac garage sale with 16 different families coming together to raise money while the Levertons’ neighbors are allowing them to use their yards. “For me, after all of this time, how do you fight,” Leverton said. “I want to do
Community News and Notes PARKINSON’S DISEASE SUPPORT GROUP MEETING MAY 21 The Southeast King County Parkinson’s Disease support group will meet at 10:30 a.m. on May 21 at St. John The Baptist Catholic Church located at 25810 156th Avenue Southeast in Covington. This month Pinnacle Medical Wellness will be visiting the group. Pinnacle offers physical therapy, occupational therapy, and has a dietitian available as well as many other wellness services. Pinnacle offers many locations to service your needs. For more information visit www.pinnacle-pt. com. The meeting will include a break out session for caregivers. The group also hosts monthly lunches on the first Tuesday of the month at Kent Senior Center, 600 E. Smith Street in Kent. The next lunch is at 11:30 a.m. on June 4. The June group meeting will be held at the Covington library.
something, so, that’s what I’m doing. I’m doing Relay.” But it doesn’t end there for Leverton. As she researched Relay she discovered the importance of healthy living in cancer awareness and treatment. After smoking for 25 years, she quit cold turkey. She started shopping for healthier foods. “I have to be an advocate of good health, I need to walk that talk,” she said. “So for me to set that example for my family, my friends … it’s now about organic, healthy foods, it’s about working out on a daily basis and doing whatever it is I can to fight.” Janet Swisher, one of the co-chairs for the Covington-Maple Valley-Black Diamond Relay for Life, told Leverton there is a Heroes Lap to recognize veterans and first responders. But, Leverton noted, Swisher said there weren’t many others beyond veterans who agreed to participate. “Janet said nobody wants to be called a hero,” Leverton said. “I called my husband’s sergeant and asked if it was OK for Marty to ride.” There will be at least five motorcycle officers who will ride, including Marty, to open the Heroes Lap.

TAHOMA NATIONAL CEMETERY TO HOST MEMORIAL DAY CEREMONY At 1 p.m. on May 27 Tahoma National Cemetery will be celebrating its 15th Memorial Day. The cemetery will be honoring veterans and would like to invite the public to attend the ceremony, honoring those who have gone before us. Veterans past and present will be honored, including those who are still in harms way. Flags will be lining the cemetery’s Street of Heroes and a flag will be placed on each grave. This is a reverent and glorious time to pay tribute to those men and women who sacrificed their life for our freedom. The ceremony will include patriotic music by the Tahoma High School band, a salute to our military forces, veteran soloists and much more. The ceremony will last approximately one hour. Parking at the cemetery is limited and additional parking is available just up the street at Tahoma High School.
May 17, 2013 [7]
For Swisher, the Leverton’s involvement brings so much to the Relay. “We are extremely honored to have the Leverton family involved with our Relay,” Swisher wrote in an email interview. “When I read Officer Leverton’s story, it really hit home for me again that cancer can strike any one of us at any time. And this is exactly why we all get involved with Relay: to not only raise funds for the programs and research that the American Cancer Society provides, but also to hopefully support our fellow community members who are facing this disease.” Swisher believes the presence of Marty and other
motorcycle officers will have a significant impact on the event. “Reminding everyone that our first responders are a critical part of our communities is extremely important, not to mention the visual presence of them leading our heroes lap,” Swisher wrote. “We are really encouraging other first responders to come to our event to participate or just see what we are all about. We would love to have teams of police officers, firefighters and other first responders participating in friendly competitions in support of our event!” Relay also offers something else Leverton said she has found helpful.
“Relay is a way for us to kind of stay connected and grounded and have a place, people still don’t like to talk about cancer, the people who don’t have it or aren’t dealing with it,” Leverton said. “It’s hard to talk about it except with other people who are going through it, so, being around Relay, those people become your cancer family. It’s a safe place to go talk about it if you need to talk about something and it’s a place that’s positive and we’re all trying to raise awareness.”

Global inspiration adds bright garden colors
HOT ORANGE AND BRIGHT YELLOW – GO WARM WITH INSPIRATION FROM SOUTH OF THE BORDER In our often-cloudy climate you can heat up your patio by choosing plants like bright orange calendulas, nasturtiums and geraniums paired with
yellow marigolds, vibrant coleus and classic terra cotta pots. Add more punches of bright color with pillows and seat cushions that are in the same color family and display your travel memories from Mexico or the sunny Mediterranean. Orange and yellow flowers will stand out on sunny patios but can also be used to brighten a shaded corner. Just substitute the intense red, orange and yellow blooms of begonias. The bright orange Bonfire begonia is a vigorous grower in sun or shade with more pointed leaves, often called the angel wing begonia due to the distincMarianne Binetti

tive leaf shape. The more rounded blooms and foliage of the Non-stop begonia has a name describing the flowering cycle – these begonias just keep blooming, non-stop, all summer long.
BRIGHT WHITE, WITH SPLASHES OF GREEN – CREATE A CLASSIC GARDEN THEME BY LIMITING THE COLORS Who can resist the rainbow of flower colors displayed at nurseries this month? If you have a desire for a cool, classic and formal look – especially for a front yard display – then seek out all-white flowers for a summer garden that will stand out from all the rest. Pristine white blooms can be found on variet-
ies of geraniums, lobelia, petunias, begonias and also in plants with variegated foliage. Show off the moon shades of these white bloomers by potting them in dark black or even deep blue pots and you’ll have a display that is fresh, arresting and contemporary. Don’t have any dark black containers? A color change is just a can of spray paint away. You can quickly transform an old pot into a new color with spray paint. New types of spray paint are now sold for painting plastic pots. Look for pillows and cushions in a graphic black and white print – or make your own outdoor cushions using the water-resistant fabric from a shower curtain.
PRETTY IN PASTELS – PINK, LAVENDER, ROSE AND CREAM. No color theme is as soothing as colors calmed by a tint of white and pastel colors are natural in the garden. Choose a brighter focal point color like a hot pink geranium and build around it in the same color family using lavender lobelia and blush-colored impatiens or mix it up with a rainbow of soft colors against soothing hues of aqua blue, pale yellow or rich cream accents. You can change the color of your outdoor furniture to match the hue or theme of your patio or deck makeover. No matter if your furniture is made of wood, metal or even wicker, you can freshen it up with
paint, or just scrub off the winter grime and get ready to enjoy the summer season in your very own colorthemed paradise.

Persevering in teaching our children well takes time they will always read the directions. I don’t want to find out they are driving through McDonald’s for breakfast, lunch and dinner because I didn’t show them how to fix a simple, healthy meal. And I don’t want to find out they don’t know how to buy anything but ice cream when they go grocery shopping. I think I have all of the above issues covered, except they probably could use a few trips to the grocery store for a lesson on how to pick out produce. And I should probably have a few more cooking lessons on how to cook produce. I’m aiming for healthy here so when they cook at their future homes, their diet consists of more than chili dogs. Although my daughters have no set chores, like cleaning bathrooms on Gretchen Leigh
Living with Gleigh
Ahhh, Mother’s Day — a time for mothers all over to reflect back on everything we’ve done wrong. Well, actually I try not to relive all the moments when I’ve been a less than stellar mother, because, quite frankly, there are probably more than I can count. So, what I choose to contemplate on this day when my daughters should be taking care of me, but they still need me to shoot directions from the other room, is that there are still some things I need to teach them. My ultimate goal in raising my daughters is that they don’t become one of those helpless 20-somethings when they finally move away from home. I don’t want to hear they put a whole box of detergent in the washing machine because no one showed them how to do laundry. No, we can’t expect
Saturday, they do respond when I ask them to help me pick up. But as I observe their daily actions in my house — they are my guests until they are old enough to get jobs and move away — I believe there are some important things I still need to teach them. Like how the empty hair conditioner bottle makes it out of the bathroom and into the recycle bin or even what happens to the empty milk jug they set on the counter. Do they ever consider how these things magically disappear? They also need to learn that the kitchen table, which is a convenient place to set things, doesn’t mysteriously clean itself. The fact that we eat dinner at the kitchen table most nights is a feat of enormous motivation on their mother’s part. They also need to understand that moving stuff from the kitchen table to the coffee table is not considered picking up. Yes, contrary to popular belief, if they pick up an object,
moving it into a different room to be in the way is a contradiction of the act of “picking up.” Their dad taught them that trick. I’m sure they don’t understand how our lights stay on and our water keeps flowing because if they had to pay for it they would take shorter showers. A lesson in utility bills would be a good idea before they get one in the mail someday and wonder what it is. And while I’m at that lesson, I’ll throw one in on the fine art of getting rid of junk mail properly — tear and shred
name labels, recycle the rest and don’t forget the hidden name label on the inside of catalogs. Then I obviously need to sit down show them how to plan some meals, because when they open the full refrigerator on the weekends when I don’t cook and exclaim, “There’s nothing to eat,” I know I have failed to show them how to put food together to create a meal. So as I reflect on another Mother’s Day, I know I am not yet finished. I will persevere in teaching my children well. I have time. I
will be their mother forever.

Tahoma comes up short in league title game, Kentlake earns seventh seed
Tahoma’s Bre West loads up to smack a base hit in the SPSL championship game against Emerald Ridge May 10 at Kent Service Club Ballfields. Tahoma moves on to districts Friday. KRIS HILL, The Reporter
Tahoma’s 7-0 loss to Emerald Ridge in the 4A South Puget Sound League fastpitch title game May 10 was just a flat tire on the road to state. That’s what senior captains Jena Waler and Courtney Cloud told the rest of the team afterward. For head coach Tom Milligan, it provided the Bears an opportunity to learn and improve, to understand what worked as well as what didn’t. So Tahoma will fix that flat tire before the West Central District tournament which starts Friday morning at Sprinker Recreation Center, then continue rolling down the road. “What you’d really like to see is it come full circle in districts or the next time you see them,” Milligan said. “You want to make those assessments and see that learning take place. There’s little things we need to be able to do. As a team that’s not a power hitting team … we need to be able to manufacture runs.” Still there were a number of positive things to take
from the SPSL tournament for Tahoma. There is the 9-5 win in the semifinal over Todd Beamer which put Tahoma in the league title game for the first time since Milligan took over as head coach. And the second seed is the highest the Bears have earned into the district tournament in recent memory, which sets them up for a more favorable first round draw. The focus now, Milligan said, is to get the two wins needed to punch Tahoma’s third straight ticket to state. If the Bears win their first two games Friday they will do just that. “We’re starting off going into Sprinker as a No. 2 team,” Milligan said. “That’s the best we’ve ever done. They need to let (the Emerald Ridge) game go. Let’s go do what we did successfully all season. We’ve got to go take game one immediately.” That first game at the district tournament, set for 10 a.m., is against Gig Harbor, the fourth seed out of the Narrows League. A win in that game would pit Tahoma against [ more DISTRICTS page 11 ]

Kentwood to take on Bothell in first round of state tournament After tough loss in district semi-final, Conquerors bounce back for third place BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
Kentwood baseball’s roller coaster post-season is still on track as the state tournament looms Friday. After a narrow loss to Puyallup in the South Puget Sound League championship game — the same team Kentwood beat in the 2012 4A title game — the Conquerors punched their ticket to state with a 5-0 victory over Heritage in the first round of the West Cen-

While it was a matter of playing for seeding in the state bracket, the higher the place the better the draw, generally speaking. South Kitsap had Kentwood’s number, though, and knocked the Conks off 11-1 in five innings. Kentwood’s

only run came early in the game when senior catcher Reese McGuire was able to score from first after the ball was fired past the first baseman into foul territory. Kentwood bounced back later that day, putting together a 9-4 victory over Skyview to secure the third seed out of the district into the state tournament. It wasn’t an easy win for the Conks, however, as they were down 4-2 heading into the seventh inning. And then Kentwood’s offense exploded in the bottom of the seventh, putting seven runs on the board to put the game away. Junior Andrew Ebner went 2-for-3 with a double while senior Tanner Wessling’s 2-for-4 day generated six RBIs, thanks in part to a home run. Meanwhile, Reese McGuire was 2-for-4 with a double and Mike Ciancio was 1-for-2 with an RBI, a stolen base and two runs scored.

Ridge and Beamer on day two. In the first round of the district tournament Kentridge will get Battle Ground, Union or Skyview out of the Greater St. Helens League. Those games
were not yet complete as of Monday morning. Kentlake, which earned the seventh seed into the district tournament, had quite a league tournament experience, taking two of its three games into extra
innings. First, the Falcons took the Titans from Beamer to nine innings in the opening game only to lose 4-3, then handily defeated the Raiders from Thomas Jefferson 18-1 in the second game
Freshman Jordan Jones pitched five innings, while Wessling and Spencer Greene each threw an inning of relief, with Green picking up the win for the Conks. Next up for Kentwood is Bothell at 10 a.m. Saturday at Everett Memorial Stadium in the regional round of the 4A state championship tournament. Bothell was the third seed in the 4A KingCo baseball tournament then beat Ballard and Eastlake to punch its ticket to state and get into to the KingCo championship game May 10, losing 3-1 to Woodinville.

since his freshman year and he was looking forward to the chance to improve it even more. The top three finishers in each event at districts will automatically be advanced to the state meet that begins May 23. At practice Monday Hammock said the challenge is to be at your best every week of the post season.
“You want to do enough to do well but you don’t want to tire yourself out,� Hammock said. In track and field, unlike in some other sports, there are no automatic qualifying standards that can assure an athlete a trip to state. “It’s mainly just qualifying for state each time,� Haverfield said of her post season goals. “It’s one false start and you’re out.�

YES – they matter a lot!

Mark Raymond Tomasevich passed away May 11, 2013 at the age of 69 after a hard fought battle with Early Onset Alzheimer’s Disease. Mark was born on November 22, 1943 to Mark Tomasevich and Merilyn (Beaune) Tomas, both deceased. Mark was the middle of three children. Born in North Hollywood, he moved with his brother to Camas, Washington, in 1959 and lived there for a few years before moving to the Seattle area. Mark had a love for life and lived it. They say that fishermen have tall tales but you haven’t seen anything until you met a pilot! Mark was good at embellishing stories. He put everything he had into everything he did whether it was work, motor homing, skiing or bicycling. If you worked for him, he stood up for you and you always mattered. He loved to explore and see new places. He was always making friends wherever he went and seemed to know someone everywhere he was. They don’t make them like Mark anymore and he will be missed. Mark is survived by his wife of 24 years, Diane Tomasevich, his son David Tomasevich (wife Susan Tomasevich) of Henderson, Nevada, son Bradley Sawler of Issaquah, Washington, daughter Stephanie Witt (husband Carl Witt) of Pasco, Washington, grandchildren Hannah and Aidan Witt of Pasco, Washington, brother George R. Tomasevich of Longmont, Colorado, sister Victoria L. Leadon (husband Thomas E. Leadon) of Alexandria, Virginia, nieces Laurette M. Leadon of Mesquite,Texas, MichelleV. Leadon of Alexandria, Virginia, and Adrienne R. Peros (husband Jessie J. Peros) of Ft. Collins, Colorado, and grand-niece Isabella Peros of Ft. Collins, Colorado. Last but not least, his Havanese dog Winston survives Mark. When Mark was at home prior to being placed in assisted living,Winston sat with him night and day while Mark sat and petted him for hours.

[ CENTER from page 1] help they need. Enrollment and service needs of current and newly identified students are factors the district is considering. District spokesman, Chris Loftis, said that no firm decision has been made yet and the district leadership is working with Principal Brian Rosand to determine the best course of action. “At this time, we are planning for one classroom,” district spokesman Chris Loftis wrote in an email interview. “But over the next couple of weeks as we monitor this situation, we may determine that two classrooms is again required to best meet
student needs.” Loftis also stressed that services available to students wouldn’t change if the classes were combined. “Special education is primarily about services, not a place,” Loftis wrote. “All district support centers have a variety of special education services available and that will not change if we have one classroom in place next year or in the future. Students, by federal and state law, are required to receive special education services first in general education if appropriate for their individual needs. Cedar Valley will still have a full variety of special education services as no services are being removed.” Loftis wrote that during the past five
years the program has decreased from a projected 19 students during the 2009-2010 school year to 12 students now. “Cedar Valley is a very small school,” Loftis wrote. “As the district focuses on increasing interventions and providing services as appropriate in a less restrictive setting which includes alongside general education peers, it is anticipated that students will receive less services in a segregated support center setting.” The current staff to student ratio is one to two or one to three. Loftis said that if the classes are combined the ratio would be one to three. “The number of adults per student will still be very high, just the physical layout
will be different.” Loftis said in a phone interview. The move isn’t about saving money for the district, according to Loftis, and no staff would be laid off. “Costs are not going away, but the usage capacity would increase if we do in fact consolidate.” Loftis wrote.

www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com [ COMMISSION from page 1] The vacancy on the Planning Commission is the first in some time. Key wrote that the commission membership has been stable in the past year as commissioners are appointed by the City Council to serve staggered four year terms. “Most commissioners will serve the full term,â€? Key wrote. “Many ask to be reappointed to a second term. Those who step down are most often pulled away
by other circumstances in their life.� This opening has been advertised in the Reporter and on the city’s website, Key explained. The city staff and City Council handle the application and interview process. It is important to fill the open seat, Key wrote, by June 1 because of the work ahead of the Planning Commission this year. The group advocates for residents and advises the Council on issues related to land use and zoning.
“The commission is also very collaborative and values diverse perspectives and opinions on each of the topics we discuss,� Key wrote. “As long as we have vacancies, we may be missing a point of view that would bring new insight into the discussion. This year, as in most, we have significant issues on the work plan and want to get new commissioners up to speed as quickly as possible.� Primarily, Key wrote, those who wish to volun-
teer for the commission should want to serve the community as well as have an interest in how the environment in the city, both natural and constructed, are managed. “We have some very exciting topics on the work plan for the remainder of the year,� Key wrote. “The most visible of those is what we call the Hawk Property Subarea Plan and (environmental impact statement). This is the current phase of the Northern Gateway Area Study initiated by the City
May 17 , 2013 [15] Council. This study will help the city develop land use, zoning and development regulations for what is now the gravel pit operation south of (state Route 18) at the Southeast 256th Street exit. The Planning Commission will review the proposed code amendments and take public input before making a recommendation to the council.� In addition, there are a number of other items on the commission’s agenda for the rest of 2013, Key wrote.
Key explained the commission’s work is intended to support the vision outlined in the city’s comprehensive plan. “If you care about the long term health and vitality of our city, I know of no other way for a volunteer to have a greater impact,� Key wrote.
