LOVING CARE Swedish-Issaquah ready to accept premature babies
BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
S
wedish-Issaquah is ready to take on the tiniest, most fragile patients with the opening of its Level II nursery.
Monday, the neonatal unit for premature babies opened for business. The unit is housed on the second floor, which is completely dedicated to women’s and children’s health. The floor contains labor and delivery rooms, the obstetric and gynecologist clinic, high-risk ob/ gyn and pediatric in-patient rooms. Every patient room looks out on a rooftop garden which changes colors with the seasons. The nursery is opening in two phases as the team eases its way into caring for these small patients. Half of the beds are for babies born at 34 or more weeks of gestation, The other half will have 15 beds for babies born as young as 32 weeks of gestation and will open sometime in the fall. Born at 32 weeks gestation, a baby needs oxygen support and IV support for nutrition because the child’s brain hasn’t had time to process how to suck, swallow and breathe
“Even though we’re caring for the baby, we’re also caring for the family.” - Debra Bender, nurse practioner at the same time. According to the March of Dimes, a baby’s brain at 35 weeks weighs only two-thirds of what it will weigh at 39 to 40 weeks of gestation, so a majority of brain development happens in the last few weeks. Instead of the baby being in a big ward with other infants, the infant has its own room with a fold out bed for a parent to stay overnight, and a rocking recliner for skin to skin contact with mom or dad. Each room also has a private bathroom with shower for the parents. The televisions are set up for relaxation channels. Babies respond to peaceful sounds or sounds like a heartbeat, so the setting is to
recreate where they just came from — humid and calm, hearing mom’s heartbeat. “Even though we’re caring for the baby, we’re also caring for the family,” said neonatal nurse practitioner Debra Bender. State-of-the-art incubators keep the baby warm, even when a caregiver reaches in the holes on the side to care for the baby. “Cold is a stressor for babies who are already in jeopardy,” said Wendy Colgan, the nurse manager for obstetrics and pediatrics. Bender said a premature baby’s evaporative state is high because their little bodies are 85 percent water. Therefore, the incubators are maintained at 80 percent humidity. For more at-risk babies, radiant warmers are used instead of incubators for more hands-on access for the caregivers. Bender said it’s no longer the case that even a few weeks early is okay. Because of developmental organization, there is still a great deal of growing going on in the final weeks of a normal pregnancy term of 39 to 40 weeks. Until now, babies born prematurely at Swedish-Issaquah were transferred to other area hospitals to receive neonatal care. Swedish received approval for this Level II nursery SEE BABIES, 2
More than a year’s worth of scientific research, evaluations by the Planning Commission and often heated debate between landowners and environmentalists reached a conclusion Tuesday night in Sammamish. In its sixth session of discussing and amending rules and regulations, the City Council finalized a new Environmental Critical Areas ordinance with five of the seven members in favor. “Call it a compromise rather than a consensus to help citizens both that own property and those concerned about the environment,” said councilmember John James, one of the five who reluctantly voted in favor. “I can live with the fact that it’s better than it was before and if we go back to what we have today ... it will all be for not.” The exact wording and code still needs to get the final stamp of approval at Sammamish’s July 15 City Council meeting, but it is essentially a done deal. A hot topic in the ECA revolved around pilot programs that would allow landowners to build in areas previously off limits because of environmental concerns — areas like streams, wetlands and terrain prone to erosion, like hillsides. Landowners and potential developers wanted looser regulations, while environmentalists wanted to deny the programs all together. The council decided to fall in the middle, allowing restricted No Disturbance Area pilot programs. “We are moving forward SEE ECA, 2

once it met the state’s required 1,000 deliveries at the campus. The team includes neonatologists from Pediatrix Medical Group, several neonatal nurse practitioners — one on staff at all times so the nursery is covered 24/7 — 12 neonatal nurses, dietitians, social workers and pharmacists. Volunteers will be needed as the staff puts together a cuddler program, where men or women 18 and older volunteer to hold the babies.

with pilots that did not exist previously here, we are going to be limited in scale, but we will still be able to test them, measure them and have some best available science we can hang our hat on,” Deputy Mayor Ramiro Valderrama said. Under the regulations, the number of proposed programs is limited to 4-6 projects. Three of those projects will be tested using three different methods of stormwater disposal and when they’ve proven there’s no environmental failures, three more would be allowed. Mayor Tom Odell admits he wasn’t fond of the pilot programs and several other aspects of the ECA, but conceded it will be a good opportunity to test previously banned projects. “I hope we don’t find out some number of months or years down the road we made a horrible mistake here,” he said. Councilmembers Don Gerend and Nancy Whitten opposed the approval of the ECA for separate reasons. “I put the sunset clause in so we would address certain issues and what we’ve done
“I hope we don’t find out some number of months or years down the road we made a horrible mistake.” - Tom Odell, Sammamish mayor is skipped over those issues and zeroed in on some other issues,” Gerend said. “I’m really disappointed in the product.” Whitten was frustrated with the process of the ECA. “I have a lot of angst around this,” she said. “I think the process is flawed when they decided to weigh property rights against the environment, I don’t think that’s what we’re supposed to be doing.” When officially approved, the new ECA ordinance will be good for 10 years.

Issaquah men climbs for a cause BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Human trafficking is an issue so sensitive that many people bury their head in the sand thinking it can’t be happening in their hometown. But it is. “It’s here, you can’t ignore it,” said Issaquah resident Robby Hipp. Hipp and Ken Hart of Issaquah, along with 16 other men, ages 28 to 30, depart Friday, July 12, on what they call adventure philanthropy. The team will reach the summit of Mt. Rainier Saturday or Sunday, all to raise money — and awareness — of the scourge of human trafficking. “I can’t imagine a more despicable thing being done to another human,” Hipp said. “It just personifies hate.” The group, Climb for Captives, focuses on girls and women who are sexually exploited. Hipp said girls as young as 8-years-old in India, have been sold or given away into sexual slavery. So far this year the group has raised $60,000, exceeding the original goal of $52,400 which provides a year of after care for 44 girls in India who have been rescued.
WWW.ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
It started out in 2008 as just mountain climbing for themselves, but then they thought about how to bring awareness to something they hate. Hipp said Seattle is one of the worst cities for human trafficking. So, the group focuses its efforts both locally and globally. One of the team members, Jeremy Vallerand of Kirkland, founded Rescue: Freedom International, whose mission is to “bring freedom to victims of human trafficking and exploitation around the world.” Hipp said not only are they rescuing exploited women and girls and dropping the hammer on their perpetrators, they are focused on rehabilitating them since their lives have been shattered. Rescue: Freedom, a 501©3, states that most girls are 12 to 14 when they are forced into prostitution. With a 2-year-old daughter, and a 4-year-old son, Hipp said this issue has heightened his sensitivity. “This industry thrives because there is a demand for it,” he said. “It is culturally accepted to exploit girls, women.” Hipp said all of the 18 men on the team value life and want people to live an abundant life, but it’s hard for these women who have been snatched so young and

With several local organizations supporting them, the new goal is to raise $75,000 total, which will include paying for college for 18 women in India. All are experienced climbers, but Hipp said Mt. Rainier is not something they take lightly. They have all the proper gear thanks to many sponsors and supporters. “Rainier can be tricky,” he said. “It creates its own weather patterns. Our goal is to get to the
parking lot via the summit.” Climb for Captives will be climbing Mt. Adams Aug. 9 and 10 to fund local efforts to fight human trafficking. A recent prostitution arrest in Issaquah, which was the first of its kind in many years, was not linked to human trafficking according to Detective Bryan Horn with the Issaquah Police Department. He said a 44-year-old woman from California is waiting for her day in court for voluntary
prostitution. Horn said he has worked on local cases in the past, in conjunction with Homeland Security which did include human trafficking. “At the end of the day, we want to bring to light the devastation this brings to lives,” Hipp said. “We want to inspire people to take action.” To help out, visit climbforcaptives.com to make a donation and view the profiles of the entire team.

GETTING AWAY It’s hard to cut electronic ties
I
recently took a one-week vacation. The goal was to "get away from it all." But, as the accompanying photo shows, that isn’t what actually happened. Four of us, myself, my wife, our daughter and son-inlaw, went to Lake Chelan. In all, the four of us brought along one laptop, a Kindle, three tablets, four cell phones, a digital camera, a portable speaker for a Zune and an iPod with a Bose speaker. We could have left most of our electronics at home, but they often are substitutes for what we would do anyway. My Kindle, for example, merely replaced the books I would have brought along with the plus of Craig Groshart being a lot less weight in the suitcase. The iPod lets us have our favorite music with us and the Bose system makes it share-able and enjoyable. That said, the other devices were mostly used for playing games and staying in contact with friends. For my part, I probably come by this attachment to modern conveniences naturally. My mother always insisted that "roughing it" on vacation meant putting up with a black-and-white TV. I don't remember us ever camping. Even so, electronics aren't critical for a vacation. While our timeshare had a TV, we didn't watch it much. Instead, we combined to complete a number of jig-saw puzzles – low tech, but still lots of fun.

Got to have faith in the M’s
I
’m not a sports writer, which is a good thing, because there are very few team sports I really understand. Football is far too complicated and soccer seems silly. But I do like baseball, probably because I saw my son play from a little tot in T-ball, to AllStars as a freshman in high school. Although the thick rule book confounded me, I had the basic gist down, and rooted heartily for his team. Growing up in Alaska, where there is no major league team of any kind, I really didn’t have anyone to root for in bigtime professional sports. We had a great hockey team at the University of Alaska, Linda Ball Anchorage, and a minor league baseball team that was pretty good. Now that I live in Seattle, this is the first time I’ve lived where I actually have a team I can root for! So, I have decided to devote my sports fandom to the Seattle Mariners because I like baseball, I like Safeco Field and I love the energy of being at a live baseball game. It thrills me. I don’t go all the time as it’s not in my budget, but when I do go to a game, win or lose, I’m in awe of how very good they all are. If a ball was coming at me at 90 mph, I’d duck! So I get really upset about all the bad-mouthing about the Mariners. Come on people, whatever happened to root,

root, root for the home team? Support here is imperative. There are some fine players on our home team. This just in: “The Seattle Mariners have two of the top starting pitchers in the MLB this season, and they’ll both be able to showcase their talents at the All-Star Game at the New York Mets’ Citi Field July 16. Mariners ace Felix Hernandez was named to his fourth American League All-Star team on Saturday, and fellow right-hander Hisashi Iwakuma was selected as an All-Star for the first time.” And how about Monday night’s game against the Red Sox! The Mariner’s crushed them 11-4, and I was whooping in my living room wishing I was there. Raul Ibanez rocks. Not too shabby. The last live game I was at was a good one. In the eighth inning the other team (I forgot who they were – I’m focused on OUR guys!) tied it up at 3-3. I overheard some guys behind me moaning about how they may as well go home. I turned around and told them to think positive! The game went into extra innings (11) and by golly, we won, 4-3! See? Those same guys then high-fived me! So don’t give up on the Mariners. They’re our team. And I’ll just bet most of you reading this would also duck if a ball was coming at you at 90 mph. Staff writer Linda Ball can be reached at 425-391-0363, ext. 5052.
bag use in Issaquah? Did that decision consider the best long-term interests of Issaquah residents and those of neighboring communities by far exceeding any requirement of the Washington State Department of Ecology? Why, then, when the issue at stake is as great in magnitude as the injection well at the Lower Reid Infiltration Gallery (LRIG) and the very real and
immediate potential to contaminate an aquifer shared by two cities, are councilmembers willing to advocate for safe drinking water only as far as the state’s minimum standards? Allowing the LRIG injection well to start again is irresponsible and shortsighted. The council should continue to act as the prideful bastion of the trust and well being of its city, its residents and the greater community.

Challenge Races return The Rotary Club of Issaquah will bring some fun back to the streets of Issaquah on July 20 for the 16th annual Challenge Series Races. The event allows participants with disabilities to experience the thrill of racing down Second Avenue in front of the Community Center into downtown Issaquah in a soapbox derbytype race. For each race, two participants climb into the seat of a gravity powered car. Racers dash along Second Avenue with an able-bodied driver at the wheel and the youngster with the disability an integral part of the team and the ride. This event began when longtime Issaquah resident Leo Finnegan found his son, Tim, wanted to race with his brothers in regular soapbox derbies, but couldn’t because of his disability.The races are supported by many volunteers from the Rotary Club of

Fireworks calls up in Sammamish, damage down BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
This graphs shows the levels of fireworksrelated calls in Sammamish this Fourth of July holiday. COURTESY OF THE SAMMAMISH POLICE DEPARTMENT
With a renewed emphasis on its fireworks ban, the city of Sammamish received an abnormally high number of calls over the Fourth of July holiday. “That is to be expected with a public awareness/enforcement effort,” said Sgt. Jessica Sullivan. The Sammamish Police Department received 50 fireworks-related complaints between June 30 and July 7 — up from 32 complaints in 2012 and 34 in 2011. The majority of complaints only provided general information as to the location of the issue. Officers were dispatched, but in most cases the fireworks had stopped or they were unable to pinpoint a source. The emphasis patrol, which was on the clock from 8 p.m. to midnight July 2-5, did confiscate fireworks from three groups of juveniles and handed out citations to two of the seven individuals involved. The other five received warnings. The fine for possessing fireworks within the city is $500 and $1,000 for discharging them. While calls were up, Sullivan said she was pleased by the decrease in damage. There were only five reports of damage this year, opposed to 11 in 2012. Two of the five damage reports occurred at Beaver Lake Park and Big Rock Park where vandals damaged a base pad, an outhouse and a garbage can.

A grand celebration
Thousands gathered last Thursday in Sammamish for the seventh annual Fourth on the Plateau. The event, which was held under mostly clear skies, featured several children’s activities, food booths and live musical performances before the grand finale — a $25,000 fireworks display. Because the event has multiple points of entry and is free to the public, it was hard to nail down an exact number of attendees, but officials have estimated the average to be close 10,000 in previous years. “It was a beautiful day and the event was very well attended,” said Joanna Puthoff, event organizer. “The attendance was pretty much equal with what we have seen during previous years.”

Klahanie annexation inches forward BY LINDA BALL LBALL@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
The effort to bring the Klahanie potential annexation area (PAA) into the city of Issaquah inched forward Tuesday night as the Land and Shore Committee voted to present the agenda bill to the full council at the Monday, July 15, regular meeting. The committee consists of chair and city council member Stacy Goodman and council members Tola Marts and Fred Butler. Diane Marcotte, the city’s finance director presented the highlights of the study done by consultants Tom Nesbitt and Cynthia Stewart while pointing out that the Issaquah business community supports annexation of the PAA. After the initial start-up costs of annexation are paid off — $1.2 million — the net revenue to the city will be about $600,000 annually according to the study. Cost to the city to service the new areas would be about $5.85 million. Five police officers and one records specialist will be added to the Issaquah Police Department. The city administration will have to apply for the state sales tax credit, which will offset start-up costs. The sales tax credit is good for 10 years. If the full council approves the plan, the issue will go to voters in February 2014 at the same time the Issaquah School District presents its local levy to voters. Beyond the money, city administrator Bob Harrison presented several key points as to why the annexation is a good fit for Issaquah. Once the city hits a population of 50,000, it becomes an entitlement city for federal community development block grants. With
11,000 coming into the fold from the PAA, the city will likely reach 50,000 in population by the 2020 census. Also with annexation, the housing mix will be more versatile. The vast majority of the PAA is single family homes, and the bulk of new development for Issaquah is multifamily housing. Harrison said this will help maintain a balance in housing. Also, the addition of homes will add to the city’s overall property tax base. The social aspect cannot be ignored. Many of Klahanie’s residents are already active and involved in city boards and commissions. “We consider ourselves to be Issaquah,” said long-time Brookshire resident Dick L’Heureux, who was on the nine-member task force appointed by Mayor Ava Frisinger. “What does it take to pull the trigger?” Mike Foss, the vice-president of the Brookshire Homeowner’s Association, said he didn’t realize for three years that he did not live in Issaquah. “I was here the last time around; it’s the right thing to do,” Foss said referring to the 2005 effort for annexation. But Tom Harman of Klahanie thought things were moving too fast. One of his concerns, which was discussed, is Issaquah-Fall City Road which needs to be expanded due to heavy traffic, which is estimated to cost about $40 million. However, it’s a county road, so it is not just a problem for Issaquah. Harrison said the city administration will be meeting with county executive Dow Constantine in the next couple of weeks and Issaquah-Fall City Road will be a part of that discussion. “It’s a regional road, so it needs a regional solution,” Harrison said.

The Blotter
Police reports from Issaquah and Sammamish BY KEVIN ENDEJAN KENDEJAN@ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
The following information was compiled from Sammamish & Issaquah police reports:
UNDERWEAR IN THE BRUSH Sammamish Police were contacted by a landscaper July 3 who found several items of young ladies underwear behind a neighborhood sign. Officers crawled through the
brush to get behind the sign at Southeast Belvedere Way and Trossachs Boulevard Southeast, to find “four old wet and bug infested girls underwear.” The underwear were not torn. Police reported the spot was hidden from view of homes and traffic and may have been a place for teens to go and engage in sexual activity.
MAN HIT BY MIRROR Sammamish police were called on the Fourth of July after a man was allegedly hit by the mirror of a vehicle after questioning teens in his neighborhood. The man flagged down the car, which followed him down Southeast 35th Street, before turning around at a dead end. Earlier the man said he saw a firework

fly out the vehicle’s window. When the car stopped, the man said he asked the driver why he was in his neighborhood and a young man responded by saying he was just trying to get home. The man told the teen he knew he didn’t live in the neighborhood and that’s when the car revved its engine and took off, striking the man in the elbow. The man wasn’t hurt. The incident is still under investigation.
ATTEMPTED BREAK IN A Sammamish woman called police July 2 after someone attempted to break down her door with their foot. The woman’s husband checked the door, which was still locked, but severely damaged. Police searched the area near the 1700 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway Southeast with a K-9 unit, but were unable to locate any suspects.
PLASTIC WRAPPED TREES A Sammamish woman called police July 5 after noticing plastic wrap surrounding trees near the intersection of Southeast 25th Street and 272nd Way Southeast. She said there were instances of plastic wrap being stretched across the street about a year ago and was concerned juveniles in the area might be starting to do it again.
SIDESWIPED A Sammamish man called police July
1 after discovering someone sideswiped his BMW, causing $1,300 in damage to the rear drivers’ side. The man, who was parked along the 4200 block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway, said he wasn’t sure who did it, but there has been work going on near his residence involving big trucks.
CAR PROWLER Two Sammamish residents contacted police June 28, reporting someone broke into their vehicles in the early morning. One man went to gas up his vehicle before noticing that his driver’s license and two credit cards were missing from his wallet. He left the billfold in his vehicle overnight. Another neighbor called to report someone stole three pairs of sunglasses from her car valued at $800. Both victims were parked in front of their homes in the 23300 block of Southeast 26th Place.
GARBAGE CAN BOMB A Sammamish man called police July 2 after someone blew up his garbage can lid with fireworks. The man, who lives in the 23900 block of Southeast 25th Court, heard a loud bang the night before and noticed the damage in the morning. The hinges on the lid were torn apart by force, but the garbage can was still standing.

Shoulders are rather indispensable. And it’s amazing the things you can do with them when they don’t hurt all the time. If you’ve put part of your life on hold because of shoulder pain, then come to a free seminar at Swedish — the place that does hundreds of shoulder surgeries every year. An expert surgeon will answer all your questions about shoulder replacement, non-surgical options, and other sport-related injuries. So take the plunge. Our seminars take just two hours, and the rest of your active life is waiting.

Issaquah Chamber meets and greets Members of the Issaquah Chamber of Commerce gathered at the Meadow Creek Business Center in Issaquah on Tuesday, June 25 for
one of the organization’s regular “meet and greet” events. Attendees enjoyed food, refreshments, door prizes and more.
The event gives businesses a chance to present displays and discuss their business with members of the community.
Community partners representing a variety of King County user groups and non-profit organizations — including Issaquah Little League, Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance and the Sammamish Rowing Association — gathered recently for a special recognition dinner to reflect on the achievements of their partnerships with King County Parks that resulted in new or better facilities. “Getting behind Community Partnership Grants and embracing the passion and energy of our community partners makes sense for the county,” said King County Councilmember Larry Phillips. “The results speak for themselves: In the past decade, more than 50 community based projects have been completed with a public investment of over $14 million that was amazingly matched by over $40 million in private funding.” In 2003, the CPG Program was established as a public/private partnership initiative to empower community-based organizations to develop public recreation facilities and run programs on King County land, which would not be possible with parks current funding. King County contributes use of land and capital improvement grants for partnership proposals. Community partners contribute the necessary additional capital and in-kind resources to develop the new or enhanced facility, as well as operations, maintenance, and programming, which is typically accomplished through volunteers and/or revenue-based programs or other resources. One of the popular outcomes of the CPG Program include Duthie Hill Park, a partnership with the Evergreen Mountain Bike Alliance, that brought more than 20,000 hours of volunteer labor to build the impressive network of mountain biking trails.

Maniez for the colorful tale of Ben Legg, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 13 in the historic Train Depot Museum. On March 28, 1920, Ben Legg had reportedly been drinking moonshine when he grabbed his gun and set out after his neighbor, Tom Hall. By the end of the day, shots had been fired, Legg
was in jail, and the Seattle Times headlines blared, “Bad Ben Legg Has An Aim That Matches His Heart!” Find out what happened in Legg’s life before and after that day in 1920. It is a tale that sheds light on the organized labor movement, the difficult life of loggers in early Issaquah, and the importance of community connections. Admission is free.

Summer Home Improvement
Understanding all the options
New windows often appear at the top of the renovation list when comfort and energy savings are the main goal. There are a myriad of options available, however, so it is a good idea to do your research before making any decisions. Here, we debunk a few myths to help you find the best window solutions for your home.
Myth: PVC is less efficient than other materials with regard to noise insulation, ventilation, and protecting against home break-ins. Reality: over the last few years, new types of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) have been produced; it is now more rigid and therefore more resistant to wind and break-ins. In addition, PVC now provides good thermal insulation, thanks to its multi-chamber profile technology. What’s more, this material can withstand any type of weather and is easy to maintain—sponging it down once a year is all it needs.
BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT
Reality: Beautiful, natural wood deserves to be cared for year after year. However, maintenance work can now be delayed for several years thanks to the application of insecticide, fungicide, damp-proofing treatments, and factory-applied finishes. The pricing of windows depends on the material and type of glass, as well as on the type of opening mechanism, the window’s thermal efficiency, and where it is installed.
Rotary Club of Issaquah is hosting the 16th Annual
Myth: aluminum windows are not as well insulated as other types of windows. Reality: aluminum can meet or even surpass current insulating standards when a
thermal break (a strip of urethane that blocks the transfer of heat through the metal) is inserted between the two profiles. The advantages of this type of window are its rigidity, solar gain, and its ability to withstand any type of weather. Powder coatings give a variety of choice in color and finish. Myth: a wood window requires a great deal of maintenance.

Caring Hearts event introduces mission of Eastside Friends of Seniors Overlake Terrace will provide drinks and light refreshment for an informational Caring Hearts event in July to introduce the free services provided by the volunteers from Eastside Friends of Seniors. The event will be from 5:30-7 p.m. July 16 at the retirement community, 2956 152nd Ave. NE in Redmond. The will not be a request for financial donations during the short presentation. Eastside Friends of Seniors was founded in 1997 to enhance the lives of independent seniors living in Issaquah and on the Sammamish Plateau. The organization grew to offer its free services to seniors in the Snoqualmie Valley and expanded into Bellevue last year. There is no cost to attend the event and no financial requirements to receive the free assistance from the non-profit organization. Volunteers from Eastside Friends provide rides to and from medical appointments, help seniors with shopping, housework and routine home maintenance. “Our goal is to allow seniors to remain independent and live in their own homes for as long as they want to there,” said Tracy Fitzsimmons, board president. There are always more requests for assistance than available volunteers, according to Executive Director Claire Petersky. She emphasized the Caring Heart event is open to all potential volunteers, seniors and anybody in the community who wants to get involved.

REPORTER Q and A | Eastside alum & Toronto Blue Jays draft pick Matt Boyd sweet to be playing on that stage. I’m just very grateful.
BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM
Long before Matt Boyd tossed one of the most dominant performances in College World Series history for the Oregon State Beavers in June, he was a Little Leaguer in Thunderbird Little League and State Player of the Year at Eastside Catholic. A recent signee of the Toronto Blue Jays, Boyd helped coach Pat Casey and the Beavers get back to Omaha, Neb. for the first time since 2007 and didn’t disappoint, throwing a complete-game four hit shutout in his team’s 1-0 win over Indiana. Boyd took some time with the Reporter, just before shipping out to Florida to begin his first professional baseball assignment.
Q A
What was the most memorable part of this year off the field?
Just how close-knit our team was. Our team was the closest team I’ve ever played on and I’ve played on teams that had some great chemistry. I lived with five other ballplayers and we’d have at least another five hanging out playing Xbox or watching baseball. That was a huge thing and I think it really contributed to our success on the field.
Q A
Was Omaha and the College World Series everything you thought it would be from an experience standpoint?
It was everything and more. It was the closest thing to a big league experience and it was very special. You’re a superstar in that town for the few weeks you’re there and everything is baseball. It was pretty
Q A
When you go back to Little League and your start in baseball, what do you miss from those early days?
The thing that was always fun was just playing with your best friends. The thing that really sticks out is all those memories playing the game. If I played good I’d get a Slurpee and pack of baseball cards with my dad. I was out to dinner with my grandma a few nights ago and saw a team there from Mercer Island Little League. Those were the best times of the year, trying to win state and go to the world series.
Q A
What do you remember from CWS 1-0 win over Indiana?
Everything, I remember every little nuance of that game. I prepared like I would for any other game. It was awesome. I had a very calm demeanor to myself. At the end, when I made the final out, it kind of sunk in. Being on that mound shaking my teammates hands, it was pretty sweet.
Q A
What will you miss most about the Pacific Northwest?
I love the Northwest. I’m going to miss playing at Goss Stadium. I loved the atmosphere we brought with our team. The way people around the town got around the team. I’m going to miss that the most. It was so special. You’re kind of a local celebrity. Being able to wear that black and orange and really fight for that common goal of Omaha. It’s a little different than the pro ranks. You’re with them from September to June. I’m going to miss it.

Former Skyline standout Kasen Williams arrested in Chelan Former Skyline wide receiver and All-American Kasen Williams, currently a rising junior with the University of Washington football program, was cited in Chelan County in May for driving a motor vehicle after having consumed alcohol or marijuana and paid a series of fines totaling $695.50 this week to resolve the case in Chelan County District Court. According to the arrest record, Williams was spotted speeding in a 30 mph zone by a Washington
State Trooper just before midnight on May 26 heading northbound on State Route 97A. The trooper verified the speed electronically and clocked Williams at 45 mph, before pulling him over in a hotel parking lot. The record states the trooper noticed Williams’ eyes were “red and watery” when he exited the vehicle and could smell marijuana and alcohol on his breath. Williams admitted to consuming one alcoholic drink earlier in the
evening and the trooper also noticed a “large glass smoking device commonly used for the ingestion of marijuana,” in Kasen Williams the car. Williams was arrested and taken to Chelan County District Court before being released later in the evening.
A passenger in the vehicle at the time of the arrest, who was not identified, was allowed to leave. The matter was closed in the court system after Williams paid his fines and agreed to two years of supervised probation, but he could still face disciplinary action from head football coach Steve Sarkisian as it relates to the upcoming 2013 season. Williams was a superstar at Skyline before graduating in 2011 and seeing action in all 13 games

Bare Buns runners take to Tiger Mountain on Sunday BY KEEGAN PROSSER KPROSSER@SOUNDPUBLISHING.COM

Local youth group heads to Africa to make a difference Sammamish’s Good Samaritan Episcopal Church’s Senior High Youth Group is on its way to make the a difference in one of the poorest countries in the world. The group, which raised $40,000 the last two years, left for Tanzania, Africa on July 3. While there, the kids will spend time at St. John’s Anglican Church’s AIDS Orphanage where they are scheduled to purchase and bring various supplies to children and their families impacted by the disease. Much of the time will be spent in the home of the Bishop Simon Makundi and his wife, Martha. The Emeritus Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Makundi
comes from the same family as Alex Haley, the writer of “Roots.” The group will also have an opportunity to spend time with nature at Lake Manyara Wildlife Park and the Nrongoro Crater National Park where some of the largest concentrations of wildlife roam. Vicar of Good Samaritan, the Rev. Dr. Suzi Robertson will be accompanying the kids and their other adult sponsors. She and her husband, the Rev. Nolen Holcomb lived in Tanzania in 20032004. They said they are pleased to have “their families” from the opposite side of the globe connect. Robertson was scheduled to preach at Christ Church Anglican Cathedral on July 7.
Looking for a fun way to spend the weekend with the family? This Sunday marks the 22nd Annual Bare Buns Run (West) at Tiger Mountain in Issaquah. And while this might not be the most conventional of options, it’s sure to be one to remember. Sponsored by the Fraternity Snoqualmie Nudist Park, the 5K (3.1 mile) Trail Run/Walk will be held at 11 a.m., starting and ending at FS. The challenging course runs over unpaved road, with a short section of cross country, uphill to the turn-around and back downhill. “A lot of serious runners run it just to say they did it,” says Dawnzella Gearhart about the difficulty of the course. Gearhart, who serves as PR chairperson for Fraternity Snoqualmie, has been a member of the organization for 19 years. Started by the Kaniksu Ranch in Spokane in 1984, the Bare Buns Run was brought to the western side of the state by Gearhart’s husband in 1991. Other Bare Buns Run take place in Vancouver, British Columbia; at Wreck Beach on the southwestern coast of Vancouver (July 21); and Mountaindale Sun Resort, 30 miles Northwest of Portland, Ore. (Aug. 4). As is tradition, this year’s race is cloth-
ing optional. Gearhart says less than 10 percent of participants generally wear clothes. “[The race] reminds people that you can be happy in your own skin and run around,” Gearhart says. A new addition to this year’s race will be the Chaotic Noise Marching Band Corps. that will perform throughout the race. Gearhart says her favorite part about the race is cheering on all the runners – and seeing her long time friends at Fraternity Snoqualmie reach their personal goals. As part of the Fun Run festivities, the Fraternity will host a variety of other activities, including a wine and cheese night on Friday followed by an attempt on Saturday to join with similar organizations to set a Guinness world record for the largest number of people simultaneously in the water without swimsuits. Registration for the race is $30; children under age 18 are free, but must be accompanied by parent or legal guardian. Those registered by July 1 are guaranteed a free T-shirt. Those coming to the park on race day must catch a shuttle at the Tibbett’s Valley Park-and-Ride at 965 12th Ave. NW, Issaquah, from 8-10:30 a.m. Carpools of three or more may get a voucher at the Park-and-Ride to drive directly to the park.
