Efforts to develop a brand for the city of Covington which reflects an identity that goes beyond being a pass through to other places continues with the design phase for logos. The city’s Economic Development Council partnered with the Covington Chamber of Commerce in the fall of 2012 to develop a brand which would help make the city more recognizable to those from outside the region. As the process progressed city and chamber officials recognized what the city’s image is now and want to refine it to communicate what Covington has to offer beyond traffic and shopping. Karla Slate, Covington’s communications and marketing manager, explained that the brand audit is complete and presentations to stakeholders were made
A land dispute between the Tahoma and Enumclaw school districts was settled in favor of Tahoma Oct. 3. The Puget Sound Educational Service District Regional Committee on School District Organization unanimously denied the Enumclaw School District’s proposed land transfer of the North Triangle, located in Black Diamond, from the Tahoma School District to Enumclaw. The North Triangle, which is about 54 acres and is slated for commercial development as part of the proposed Lawson Hills master planned community by YarrowBay in Black Diamond, is currently undeveloped. Enumclaw officials initiated the petition in late 2012 because of the parcel’s status as part of the master planned commu-

Council delays vote on Ravensdale park funding BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com
The Maple Valley City Council put off deciding to commit an additional $1.5 million to Ravensdale Park Monday night, citing the need for more information. City Finance Director Shawn Hunstock told council there are two options for funding parks: councilmanic bonds, which do not require a vote by residents, or a larger bond issue which would necessitate a vote. In his budget presentation in September, Hunstock identified potential revenue streams the city could use to pay the debt service on councilmanic bonds which included maximizing property and utility taxes, implementing a
business and occupation tax, as well as other taxes and fees. At the Maple Valley candidate forum Sept. 26, Mayor Bill Allison said he wouldn’t support a business and operations tax and that is something the city doesn’t want to do. At the City Council meeting Monday, Hunstock said he included all of the potential revenue streams when he was compiling the list, whether or not they are something council members said they would be in favor of because, technically, they are options. Members of the Ravensdale Park Foundation approached the Maple Valley City Council about helping to fund the park project about a year ago and the city
created a parks commission to vet the idea and offer its recommendation. The commission presented its report to council in March in which it recommended the city give $2 million to the project. The City Council agreed to fund $500,000 for the park and consider the additional $1.5 million. The plans for Ravensdale Park, which is located outside the city limits of Maple Valley, are laid out in the Ravensdale Park Master Plan and is overseen by the Ravensdale Park Foundation. The master plan was adopted in 2009 and includes a community meadow, six fields designated for baseball, soccer and all purposes uses. Phase one of the master plan was completed in January 2012 which included renovating a preexisting field. Phase two of the project, for which the foundation is currently [ more PARK page 9 ]

State board set to adopt marijuana regulations Black Diamond and Covington to develop zoning rules for marijuana while Maple Valley is prepared for retail sales BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
As the adoption of final regulations regarding the sale of marijuana approaches, cities throughout the state including Covington, Maple Valley and Black Diamond, are considering
how to regulate retail sales. The state’s Liquor Control Board, which was tasked with developing rules to govern the marijuana industry, was expected to adopt regulations Wednesday, after the Reporter’s press deadline. These new rules come
thanks to Initiative 502, a voter-approved initiative passed in November 2012 which legalized the recreational use of marijuana. A set of rules adopted in early September would allow for 61 stores to be licensed to sell recreational marijuana in King County,

business venture meets the criteria under our zoning code it would be able to open in the eligible area. The business still must be licensed through the state of Washington Liquor Control Board. The state said it would allow only one retail operation within Maple Valley. If an investor is interested, our Community Development staff has taken the location parameters set forth in state law and have determined the possible locations where a marijuana retail establishment could be located.” Meanwhile, Covington officials have fielded a number of questions in recent weeks. The city’s attorney put together a response to inquiries regarding Covington’s policies on recreational marijuana. It currently has a moratorium in place on medical marijuana facilities that will expire in February 2014. Work has begun on interim zoning for medical marijuana-related businesses. Covington is working on developing interim zoning regulations for recreational marijuana businesses that may set up shop within city limits, according to information provided by
Richard Hart, the city’s community development director. The City Council will likely vote on regulations before the state Liquor Control Board begins to accept recreational marijuana license applications Nov. 18. Black Diamond, however, has not regulated medical marijuana specifically unlike its neighbors to the north and west. Instead the city used its business license process to regulate marijuana collective gardens instead of developing zoning regulations. The Black Diamond City Council did take up the issue at its Oct. 3 meeting. Members voted on a pair of proposed ordinances which would put six month moratoriums on recreational and medical marijuana businesses in the city. “The City Council placed moratoria on all marijuanarelated activities for six months in order to establish appropriate policies and zoning to comply with state statue,” wrote Black Diamond Mayor Rebecca Olness in an email interview Tuesday. “No permits or business licenses will be issued in this regard until the City Council finishes its deliberations.”

with Maple Valley slated to get one license while Covington and Black Diamond did not get any. It is possible, however, that retailers may be able to obtain a license to operate in one of those cities by applying to the state Liquor Control Board and going through a lottery process. “Locations not assigned to a specific city are at large,” stated a document on the state Liquor Control Board’s frequently asked questions section of its website. “The specific locations will be selected by lottery in the event the number of applications exceeds the allotted amount for the cities and county.” It is not clear on the Liquor Control website just how many at large licenses will be available. While Covington and Black Diamond plan to develop regulations in the near future, Maple Valley officials are ready for whomever may apply to run a retail marijuana business there. “Maple Valley considers retail marijuana shops the same as any retail establishment,” wrote Maple Valley City Manager David Johnston in an email interview. “Thus, if the
Safety tips for driving in heavy rains: 1. Slow down! Rain decreases your vision and reaction times.
2. Avoid “hydroplaning”, where your tires ride on a layer of water rather than the road. Hydroplaning is more likely to happen at high speeds, if your tire tread is worn, or if your tires are not properly inflated. 3. Allow extra time to reach your destination. 4. Drive defensively. Leave extra space between you and the vehicle in front of you. Drive extra-safely since some others may not. 5. Check your brakes when driving in the rain. Wet brakes take longer to stop your vehicle. Tap your brakes occasionally to dry brakes off. 6. Ensure your windshield wipers are in good condition and that the window washer reservoir is filled. Safety tips for driving near/in standing water: 1. Check news and city web sites to discover areas to avoid. 2. Plan your route and make sure others know where you are going. 3. Avoid flooded streets. It only takes 12 inches of water to stall most vehicles. Water can also cause irreparable damage to engines, exhausts, and electrical systems. 4. Flooded streets may hide washed out roads and culverts that can trap the unwary. 5. Obey “road closed” signs and take an alternate route. 6. If you must drive through standing water, drive slowly and in the left hand lanes. 7. If your vehicle stalls in standing water, do not panic. Call for assistance and wait in your vehicle with the emergency flashers operating. Only leave the vehicle if it begins to float. The best and safest course of action is to not go out on the road unless you have to.

Erika Morgan is running against Bill Roth for the open seat of Position No. 2 on the Black Diamond City Council. Morgan was unable to be interviewed but provided the following responses via email to The Reporter.
WHERE ARE YOU FROM ORIGINALLY?
I grew up in Washington, and have lived in BD since 1978.
WHY DID YOU MOVE TO BLACK DIAMOND?
I always wanted to live in Black Diamond. Even as a child when we drove through, I liked how there was communication from yard to yard over the fence. As an adult, I found a culture that “cares for your neighbor as one of your own.” There is a basic equality between our citizens. And I am still blown away by the ecology of the Black Diamond Lake and surrounding natural area.
TRUNK OR TREAT EVENT TO BE HELD AT KENTWOOD Kentwood High School is holding its annual Trunk or Treat event from 5:30-7 p.m. on Oct. 31 in the front circle at the school. Elementary age children are invited for a fun and safe place to trick or treat and admission is free. The school will be collecting non-perishable food items for Much Madness, the school’s annual canned food drive. The school is located at 25800 164th Avenue Southeast in Covington.
WHY DID YOU WANT TO RUN FOR OFFICE? I understand the continuing mistakes the city has made as it reviewed the developer’s proposals. I’ve seen dozens of local citizens, with their particular understand-
ing of their home, be ignored. I’ve witnessed big mistakes in the city before, such as the failed sewage lagoon in the 80’s that turned Lake Sawyer green for years. In addition, I have been watching the government of Black Diamond closely for 33 years, many times I was the only “public” at the public meetings. I want to do more for the people of Black Diamond. Citizens have asked for and deserve a responsive government that avoids mistakes by relying on best proven practices, and insists on financial guarantees and performance bonding for its contracts. My experience living and working as a part of a fully responsible manufacturing firm with 60 years of success has giving me insight into finances, work orders, purchasing schedules, contracting, engineering, and employee law and management, that I know will benefit Black Diamond.
WHAT ARE THE TOP THREE ISSUES YOU WOULD WANT TO FOCUS ON? 1. Protecting our area from the problems of over-development. The YarrowBay development will cause traffic problems, school crowding, failures within our natural environment, and probably new taxes and

McDonough was selected for leading the number-one fundraising team in the U.S. for Susan G.

financial obligations. I will be a watchdog that protects us and our neighbors. 2. Transparent government and public participation. We can’t have public participation without transparency, and the city has not been transparent. They have made it difficult to get documents regarding city and YarrowBay’s detailed plans. They have continuing problems with recording public meetings and timely posting of public documents. 3. Basic municipal services for current citizens—road needs, utilities, police and fire, are the priority. Future planning must be reality-based rather then the fantastical, but the actual plan must happen now resting on actual reality on ground level, not from the programmatic level described in the developer’s plan, or we won’t have the trails and parks, walkable schools or proper placement of municipal amenities in our future. I won’t waste good money chasing misguided ideas that do not benefit our current citizens currently.

1. The problems of future over development by YarrowBay. YarrowBay is a private contractor who we can expect will first be caring for it’s own interests and maximizing its own profits. Maintaining the spirit, financial integrity and character of our city is the responsibility of Black Diamond’s City Council in consultation with its citizens. 2. Maintaining Black Diamond’s friendly small town culture while supporting and encouraging our existing and emerging local businesses. Once Black Diamond’s balance sheet was in the black, once there were adequate reserves in the bank. We need to get back there through very prudent spending, that is how we built the reserves before, we must do that again.

DANGER OF ARTIFICIAL SWEETENER With the staggering number of overweight and obese individuals in this country today, it’s no surprise that many switch from full calorie soft drinks to diet drinks. At first, the decision seems sound: consuming fewer calories equals less weight to gain. However, there are some new studies that say the danger in drinking diet soda or foods with artificial sweeteners but no sugar might be greater even than the dangers associated with the chemicals these products are made from. The body is fooled by the sweet taste into thinking that sugar is coming into its belly. When no sugar appears, the metabolic response is tricked, and over time, the body might stop responding to actual sugar the way it should. Studies have shown that those who consume diet drinks regularly have a 200 percent increased risk of weight gain, a 36 percent increased risk of pre-diabetes or metabolic syndrome, and a 67 percent increased risk of diabetes. So if you want something sweet, have a small treat with real sugar, or better yet, grab a piece of fruit! And remember--the best beverage to quench a person’s thirst without any negative side effects, is water. To schedule an appointment, please call Southlake Clinic at (253) 395-1972.

O D I D Y O U K N O W ? : At 7 p.m. on Oct. 15 people across the country will light candles in honor of Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day.
Lighting a wave to remember
Staff Writer Katherine Smith
I dropped a card for my sister in the mail last week. Yes, a good old fashioned card, with a stamp and everything. It seems such a little thing, but I sent it because I wanted her to know that I was thinking about her. Before I sent it I wrote across the seal: “open Oct. 15.” See, Saturday, Oct. 15 is Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day. It’s a day recognized by my family each year. It’s a chance for us to honor the memory of my niece —my sister and brother-in-law’s firstborn — to remember the moments of joy her too short existence brought us and to recognize the loss and grief that they have endured. I know I’ll never forget the day I opened my mailbox and found an envelope addressed to “Auntie” or the shock and sadness that reverberated through our family when we found out Sierra Mae’s heart had stopped beating. In 2006 the 109th Congress officially recognized the Pregnancy and Infant Loss Remembrance Day and made it a national day of remembrance and a chance to support those who lost a child whether it be as an early pregnancy loss, an infant loss, or a time in between. In 1988 Ronald Reagan proclaimed October to be Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness month. “When a child loses his parent, they are called

an orphan,” Reagan said. “When a spouse loses her or his partner they are called a widow or widower. When parents lost their child, there isn’t a word to describe them. This month recognizes the loss os many parents experience across the United States and around the world. It is also meant to inform and provide resources for parents who have lost children due to miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, molar pregnancy, stillbirths, birth defects, SIDS, and other causes.” Pregnancy and Infant loss is an all too common tale. Estimates are that approximately 1 million such losses occur each year. It’s a topic that people really don’t like to talk
about, and who can blame them — it is a hard thing to talk about, after all. In my experience it seems like most people know somebody who has been there. In the aftermath of losing Sierra that June I was surprised by how many people I knew had similar stories in their families or circles of friends. Next Tuesday my sister will arrange pink roses in a vase and she’ll go drop off the teddy bears we made last summer at her local labor and delivery unit for moms who lose a baby. I’ll light a candle in honor of my niece and my oldest sister as part of the wave of light and I’ll pause to remember.
ally rising cost of street repairs are depleting our street funds. In 2017 the street fund will be completely insolvent. After sitting on a citizens (budget priorities advisory) committee for Covington, I learned and saw how well the city of Covington spends its tax dollars. That citizen review group found Covington lives responsibly within its means. We learned that by state law, much of Covington’s revenue is for a specific use. It cannot be used or available for streets or police. A transportation benefit district is a long term solution to the problem. Proposition 1 raises the sales tax by a modest 0.2 percent to 8.8 percent which still is under surrounding cities’ rates. This increase would generate roughly $750,000 per year to address Covington’s unmet transportation needs. In addition, if the measure passes, it would allow the City Council to take the funds subsidizing the street fund — $250,000 currently — and dedicate them back into hiring an additional police officer and increase code enforcement by 10 hours a week. The tax will be spread and shared by all who use Covington roads when they shop in Covington. It is certainly fair that all who use the roads help maintain them.
Like all of you I try to maintain a balanced budget in my household and if I see the need for cost to go up I want to understand it, learn about it, and see if it is really needed. Proposition 1 to me has double benefits. We are taking care of our street maintenance so the problem and the cost do not increase down the road and it increases our police protection and code enforcement. This maintains our unmatched quality of life and keeps Covington moving. In simple terms you can relate to an increase in items purchased if the tax goes from 8.6 percent to 8.8 percent as to cost: 1 cent on a $5 latte or 20 cents on a $100 purchase. On average, citizens will pay $10 more a year from the increase to get a great bang for your buck. I know I can afford to do that and I urge all of you to vote yes on Proposition 1 Covington transportation benefit district and keep Covington moving!

Vote yes, keep our city moving BY LESLIE HAMADA For the Reporter
We all can relate to the fact that everything seems to cost more today than a few years ago. When the city of Covington was incorporated, there was a financial plan where the gas tax and other dedicated revenues were sufficient to cover street maintenance. Since then those dedicated revenues declined and the cost of road repair has grown dramatically. The situation escalated where incoming revenues and output of cost was so out of balance that it forced the City Council to shift $250,000 from the current budget each year into infrastructure to stop complete decay. Money dedicated to repair city roads is dwindling. Reduced driving, increased fuel efficiency, unforeseen initiatives and continu-

School bond good for economy In general I am very skeptical of the need for higher taxes. My knee jerk reaction to suggestions for higher gas taxes, implementation of a state income tax or increased federal income taxes is not just “no” it is “hell no.” I have a hard time understanding how 28 percent of my income is not enough now! However, there are occurrences when infrastructure needs that are demonstrable, have financial limits and are administered by trustworthy public servants, that I can be persuaded. That is why I support the Tahoma School District capital improvement bond. Lake Wilderness Elementary was designed for 550 students yet is home to over 1100 students. Out of 1,002 elementary schools in the state, Lake Wilderness is the largest. Overcrowding and inadequate facilities within our district are undeniable. We pack them in portables and inefficient facilities like sardines. As a result we have the first, fourth, and ninth largest elementary schools in the state. We simply cannot put any more children in our current facilities. Aside from building we are faced with the only other alternative of year around school. Maple Valley is desirable as a place to live because of its schools performance
in spite of its facilities. Tahoma School District’s performance metrics are among the highest in the state. That is one reason why I moved my family here 16 years ago. We have been named as one of the best places to raise a family by multiple publications and realtors advertise the fact that a property sits within the Tahoma School District. However, without an adequate learning environment how long can that be maintained? Families evaluating our increasingly overcrowded schools are going to hesitate to purchase homes here. And attracting top notch teachers will become more and more difficult. Even if you have no children in our school district or have a vested interest in education, you should support the construction bond for purely economic reasons. Maple Valley residents need a recovery of home values since the recession. It is an imperative for many who one day hope to sell their homes. Because of the time frame when Maple Valley grew it is estimated that 43 percent of us have no equity or are underwater on our mortgages. Home values are appreciating once again but that is not guaranteed to continue. And the gap to get us back to pre-recession values is still large. The perception of the quality of our community is an important factor in that recovery. The variation in increase between commu-
nities in home appreciation is large, some much faster and some slower. Passage of the construction bond will spur that appreciation. Look at the increase property tax from the construction bond as an investment in the value of your home. That investment is estimated to be about $36 a month on a home valued at $300,000. If the appreciation of home values due to a desirable school district only increase 1 percent on a $300,000 home that would be $3,000 a year. Your return on investment is $432 in increased property taxes into $3,000 home appreciation for a 694 percent return. Of course there are many reasons which cause home values to appreciate and desirable schools are only one. But this is the only reason you can vote on this fall. Vote for the recovery of your home value if nothing else.

brings stability, a wealth of knowledge, and a historic perspective of where we have been to lead us where we as a city want to go. Most importantly, Victoria has a proven track record of her commitment to serve the residents of Maple Valley and the level headed good judgment for sound decision making. A criticism I’ve heard from a few about Victoria is her length of time on the council. Do you vote someone out of office for doing a great job? How foolish is that? One of Victoria’s strongest attributes is her professional approach to campaigning. She has always kept her campaign directed at the issues important to the public and never reverted to negative attacks against her opponent! I believe this raised the bar, not only on ethical behavior, but has provided us all an opportunity to think to our city’s future rather than be diverted to character attacks. I think this was reflected in Victoria’s landslide win of almost 67 percent over her opponent in her last bid for office. Victoria is an unsung hero regarding service to our community. No matter
what organization is holding a function, Victoria is usually there in attendance and often contributing platters of homemade candies or baskets of goodies. I’d particularly like to point out her 20 years of volunteerism to the Maple Valley Food Bank and her work as co-founder and volunteer market manager of the Maple Valley Farmers Market. She’s over there early every Saturday morning from June to October, without remuneration, interacting with the vendors and customers. Maple Valley has received numerous accolades — even nationally — as to what a great place we are for families. We have fantastic schools, our business community is growing, we live in a well managed city where a real sense of community thrives. Handshakes for this progress go out to many. I’d say we are on the right track! Voters know the form of good government they’re getting with Victoria Jonas — she has proven herself many times over as a proponent of fiscal accountability and responsibility. It’s important to Maple Valley to retain the effective leadership qualities Victoria
October 11, 2013 [5] has demonstrated.

Incumbent being irresponsible Election rumors spread by the incumbent mayor’s side show the kind of government she has run. The incumbent is the one being irresponsible with the people’s resources such as our tax dollars, our city staff, and our natural environment. The old mayor has not listened on these issues with regard to the giant YarrowBay development. Dave Gordon will use the city’s resources appropriately to represent the people. Our best chance to save the city from YarrowBay’s fiscal insanity is Dave Gordon. He will make city hall work for us! We can make a better plan. The threat that YarrowBay could sue Black Diamond or that Black Diamond would break its contract is just a scare tactic to confuse the people. [ more LETTERS page 6 ]

Dave Gordon’s city attorney will ensure rock solid legal advice protects the city. YarrowBay may bluff and try bullying, but they will not enter a frivolous law suit because then their investors would run from a scheme where the developer is in a lawsuit against the city!

for Housing. Victoria has worked hard for our community which is reflective of her numerous endorsements from municipal, regional and state elected leaders. Due to Victoria’songoing community support of our first responders and educators, she has earned the endorsement of our police, our firefighters and our teachers. As we move forward, Maple Valley will continue to face many complex challenges that require experienced, proven leadership to ensure that our long-term prosperity and quality of life continue. I believe the residents of Maple Valley deserve the best local government possible.

Growth is important I am writing regarding the politics going on in Black Diamond. I am sickened by what one candidate is saying to get people to vote for him. I don’t usually voice my opinion on politics, but I feel people need to know how this candidate told lies regarding the husband of a very dear friend of mine. I cannot express the hurt I saw in my friends eyes when she talked about all the lies he was saying about her husband. This candidate talks about how involved he is in our community, but had no idea who the chairman of the Planning Commission was and that Black Diamond has a food bank and community center. Does that sound like someone who is involved in our great community? Anyone who really cares about our city should be very concerned if this candidate gets elected as our mayor. If he is willing to tell lies to get elected what [ more LETTERS page 7 ]

www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com [ LETTERS from page 6] will it be like with him as mayor? If he can’t see evidence of the food bank or the Community Center in Black Diamond, how will he be able to see less visible aspects and needs of this community? I have lived in Black Diamond for the past 18 years. When we were building our home here, the contractor told us that Black Diamond would be growing to a city of around 15,000. My sister-in-law works with a Lake Sawyer resident and has been talking about the issues of YarrowBay building here. My sister-in-law asked this resident, if you knew 18 years ago this was going to be coming why are you now deciding to do something about it instead of when you found out about the building. The Lake Sawyer resident’s response was, “now they are starting to go forward with it.â€? So my question to everyone who think they can stop the growth is if it has been mandated by the state and county why do you think you can stop it? I agree that the development needs to be done in a controlled manner to help preserve the great city of Black Diamond, but I also know that growth is important. My kids are now adults, but they used to ask, “Why isn’t there a bowling alley or something for us to do close?â€? I work in one of the local businesses here in Black Diamond, and if you think growth isn’t essential to the city, let me tell you what I hear from some of my customers. I have customers that live in Maple Valley and Enumclaw who tell me, “We don’t get here very often because it is too far.â€? So if we are too far for them to drive to support us, why should we have to be forced to drive outside of our community, to do our shopping? Everyone is about buy local, support local businesses. Wouldn’t it be awesome if this city could be self-sufficient and become a destination place with great businesses and residents that would draw people from the surrounding cities? If Black Diamond had grocery stores, specialty shops, and more things for our youth to do, just think of how much revenue our city would receive. Please think long and hard when you vote for our mayor as the person in that office makes decisions that affect our future and our children’s future. I ask that you research and become informed on the issues and the candidates before you vote.

Black Diamond. When you’re wrong, you’re wrong, and when the mayor no longer represents the people she vowed to represent then she is wrong and no longer fit to lead. Her open defiance of the majority of residents means that she needs to step aside or be replaced by a mayor who shares the visions of the majority. In this case our lifestyle will best be represented by Mayor Dave Gordon, and reform City Council candidates Erika Morgan, Janie Edelman and Carol Benson.
Terry W. and Natalie S. Sheely Black Diamond
Incumbent mayor doesn’t represent Black Diamond Let’s drop straight to the bottom-line of the upcoming Black Diamond mayoral and city council elections. Bottom line: Who will represent the lifestyles and interests of the majority of families who live here? Sadly, the incumbent mayor has not and does not represent the wishes of the people she vowed to serve. That the majority wants transparent, reasonable and planned city growth is evidenced by the primary election results overwhelmingly endorsing both the incumbent’s opponent, Dave Gordon and his call for progressive, steady, responsible growth. As residents we are not anti-growth, we are realistic, practical and object to our lifestyle and wallets being devoured by a high-powered national developer. Despite that irrefutable evidence directing how we want our city to grow incumbent Mayor Olness continues to vow that if re-elected she will continue pursuing her agenda and YarrowBay’s wishes — not ours. Forget the hot button accusations. It does not matter if her agenda is being driven simply by a massive “I know best� ego or influenced by the hundreds of dollars in political contributions from vested contractors. Bottom line: Black Diamond residents want progressive, well considered managed growth. Mrs. Olness wants an overnight explosion of massive developments with the city, school districts, road systems, wildlife and environment paying for shortcuts, services and fees that rightfully should be paid by those who stand to profit — developers Yarrow Bay, their subcontractors and retail allies. That is just wrong. Black Diamond has a master plan for growth that will responsibly steer our lifestyle into a future of reasonable development and planned expansion. That Mrs. Olness chooses to re-interpret this plan in order to shore up her cause, ignoring the wishes of the plan’s creators and the majority of families, reveals the bottom-line: she is no longer a leader who represents the residents of the city of

Vote for Edleman and Benson This November the citizens of Black Diamond have the opportunity to select council members who will guide our city over the next few years. We all realize our city is growing with many changes on the horizon. We need hard working open, independent minded members of the council. Here are just a few reasons why I believe it is critical Janie Edelman and Carol Benson retain their seats on the Black Diamond City Council: Both have strong management and business backgrounds, are used to working in a team environment and have strong skills enabling them to manage long term complex projects. Both spend many hours a week volunteering in our community Prior to council meetings they thoroughly research all agenda issues. When necessary this includes meeting with city staff and Black Diamond residents so that when a decision is made it is the best possible one for the city and its residents. Candidates running in November have been called pro or anti-growth. Carol and Janie realize our city is growing, but want to make certain it is done in a responsible manner with the welfare of current and future Black Diamond residents in mind. They are not one issue candidates; they are concerned about the fiscal health of our city now and for years to come. They are addressing the strength of the city’s infrastructure to insure current and future residents receive the services they require. Please join me and cast your votes for Carol Benson Black Diamond City Council Position 4 and Janie Edelman Black Diamond City Council Position 3.

[8] October 11, 2013 [ LAND from page 1] nity. Hypothetical future residents of the proposed community, which is geographically separate from the commercial section, would attend the Enumclaw School District and thus district officials stated that the commercial section of the community should be in the same district. The idea therefore being that the taxes on revenue from the proposed commercial developments would go to the Enumclaw School District instead of Tahoma. The piece of property is not currently, and isn’t projected to ever, be home to any students. The regional committee oversees all land transfer requests and acts as mediator when districts have a dispute about boundary lines. At the public hearing Oct. 3 both districts presented their arguments for and against the transfer and citizens also had the opportunity to voice their opinion on the proposed transfer.
www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com Enumclaw’s presentation included the argument that with the potential addition of more than 3,000 new students related to the proposed master planned developments, the revenue from the proposed commercial developments would help the district provide for students and could also be a selling point when the district tries to pass construction bonds. Another point district representatives made was that city boundaries, urban growth area boundaries, and the MPDs should align. Tahoma’s presentation argued that there are also Tahoma students who live in Black Diamond who have an equal relationship to any future development on the property, that the loss of revenue would negatively impact Tahoma students, and that the various boundary lines don’t have to match. The district representatives also argued that simply transferring property to gain revenue because it is near where students lives sets a precedent that would ultimately negatively impact students. Those who
spoke on behalf of Tahoma also encouraged the committee to focus on the land as it is today, not based on speculation about the future. “There are no students involved in this commercial growth,” said Tahoma School Board President Tim Adam during the meeting. “There’s no students involved, and that’s what we’re all in this game for. It’s all about proper education and the best education for our students … if students were involved, I’d have a different opinion (about the transfer), but they aren’t.” Five community members, four who reside in the Tahoma School District and one who lives in the Enumclaw School District all spoke in opposition to the transfer during the public hearing portion of the meeting. No community members spoke in favor of the transfer. Both districts filled out a questionnaire prior to the hearing and submitted it to the committee, the answers to which committee members reviewed and discussed after

during the past six months as the partners worked on developing the city’s brand and identity. “Now we’re working on the graphic part of that, what image will represent the brand,” Slate said. “We still have our two consultants and myself working on the project together.” CEDC is serving as the steering committee for the effort, Slate said. At the last CEDC meeting Sept. 26, Slate and the consultants presented 10 different logo design concepts, which were narrowed down to four ideas that the committee members wanted to see further developed. “We’ll go back to them at the Oct. 24 meeting with those four (concept designs) for them to decide what to do,” Slate said. “Then at that point what we’d like to do is a joint meeting with CEDC, the chamber and the council to get buy in and to see if everybody will get behind it.” Slate said she expects all three groups to support the concepts they developed as they have checked in with them and other stakeholders throughout the process to keep them in the loop throughout the branding process. During the first phase
the public hearing closed. In discussing the questions, committee members focused on the negative impacts of the transfer on Tahoma students, the fact that many territories cross boundaries, and the amount of speculation involved in trying to predict future growth and revenue. “We’re obviously pleased with the decision,” said Tahoma School District spokesman Kevin Patterson. “It was our position from the beginning that the property should remain within the Tahoma School District and we feel that the evidence put forward by our district and by people who spoke to the board certainly confirmed that position. It’s really good that this is behind us now and we can turn our full attention back to educating kids.”

there were workshops that gathered the input of Covington department heads, CEDC, chamber members and others. A significant element of Covington’s identity is a connection with nature, but, that’s on the other end of the spectrum from the concept of the city as a short cut, a place to shop or the city people drive through to get to Maple Valley. In order to develop an identity for the city those two elements need to be unified somehow. “That’s really what the branding strategy is about,” said Derek Gillette, one of the consultants on the project, at a chamber luncheon in March. “A branding strategy is not necessarily changing the plan of the city. A branding strategy just finds a way to communicate that (identity) in a better way. It invites people to the party and to participate.” During the second phase of research and data gathering, Gillette said at the luncheon in March, they defined three main audiences for the branding message: those who live in Covington, those who do business in the city and those who are visiting Covington. To that end, a working tagline, “Growing Towards
Greatness,” was developed and the logo designs incorporated that to varying degrees. Thus far, Slate said, the city has not spent much money on this branding effort thanks in part to the pro bono work done by Gillette, who lives in the area. Eventually, the city will need to budget some cash to pay for the use of a new logo, but that’s something Slate expects to happen in phases. Once a branding graphic, a new Covington logo, is selected, Slate said, the next step would be to develop an action plan to determine how, when and where the new image would be used. “Aesthetically speaking, they want something that’s simple, that is easy to read but is more modern and colorful (than the current Covington logo),” Slate said. “Thinking more on the line of themes, they’re really looking for something that reflects the fact that Covington is a growing community and not just growing in development.” That is the message behind the “Growing Towards Greatness” tagline. “All of our messaging going forward will convey that (theme), so it will always be the underlying tone,” Slate said. “We have a ways to go, but we’re still growing.”

Antimatter and the search to understand how we’re here the reason we are still alive to ponder antimatter is still a mystery to scientists worldwide. In the first days of our universe, equal amounts of matter and antimatter were created in a cataclysmic event called the Big Bang. The vast majority of these matter-antimatter pairs collided, however, for reasons still largely unknown, an extremely small amount of matter survived this particulate armageddon (estimates range from one-millionth to Science Corner

Many people have heard of antimatter, an opposite to matter which destroys all the matter it touches. The energy released from this destruction was even used to power the Enterprise in Star Trek. Such a source of energy would indeed be impressive, as just 40 pounds of antimatter combined with matter could power King County for a month. As beneficial as antimatter could potentially be, it also had the potential to destroy the entire universe, and

ated a parks commission to vet the idea and offer its recommendation. The commission presented its report to council in March in which it recommended the city give $2 million to the project. The City Council agreed to fund $500,000 for the park and consider the additional $1.5 million. The plans for Ravensdale Park, which is located outside the city limits of Maple Valley, are laid out in the Ravensdale Park Master Plan and are overseen by the Ravensdale Park Foundation. The master plan was adopted in 2009 and includes a community meadow, six fields designated for baseball, soccer and all purposes uses. Phase one of the master plan was completed in January 2012 which included renovating a pre-existing field. Phase two of the project, for which the foundation is currently preparing and plans to break ground in January with estimated completion next fall, is budgeted to cost $6 million and include adding two multiuse fields, additional parking, restrooms, a concessions stand, play structures, an open area, trails, and maintenance facility.
one-billionth of the original matter in the universe), which forms everything we know today. The European Council for Nuclear Research has been working to explain our existence for quite some time, and various scientists have developed partial theories on the issue. Despite their best efforts, however, we have yet to attain an incontrovertible answer to how any matter survived. Scientists agree that if matter and antimatter follow exactly the same rules, then every atom in the universe would have met its
The foundation is receiving funding at the county and state level, as well as funds from the city and multiple private donors. The council chose to delay committing to funding the additional $1.5 million at its meeting Monday to give staff time to find answers to questions about how the city could generate funding and about wording of an interlocal agreement with King County regarding the funding. Councilwoman Linda Johnson reiterated her position — which she argued for at a previous council meeting — the city should put the issue to voters. “These are taxes that we’re putting on the citizens that they have no say in,” Johnson said. “That’s why I think it’s important to go through the bond issue.” City staff said that the soonest a bond issue could plausibly go to voters would be fall of 2014 and that if it passed funds would be available in early 2015. Councilman Noel Gerken said he believes the city should focus on Tahoma School District’s construction bond measure, which is on the November ballot, and the council should come back to parks later. Allison was strongly in favor of the councilmanic bonds and committing the

anti-atom, thus resulting in a high energy universe with nothing in it. The fact that we exist is proof that this did not happen, and this has led scientists to believe that something, however minor, must be different between the two. Unfortunately, years of searching and tens of billions of dollars have failed to located a concrete difference between the two. Part of the problem may be that scientists don’t know what to look for, and this is where the various theories come in. Some scientists think that certain small particles have a very slight chance to produce matter without antimatter. Beginning experiments seem to support this idea. However, out of over 70 trillion collisions, only 1,000 of these particles were
produced, and only a few lacked antimatter. Given that these observations are very difficult, the apparent lack of antimatter may simply have been human error. Even if such a particle does exist, the theory is far from complete. This particle is so rare that almost no matter contains it, therefore, even if this theory is correct, it would only explain about two percent of the universe’s matter. Another theory suggests that matter may have more energy than antimatter. When matter and antimatter is subjected to gravity, it has been noted that regular matter can resist gravity’s effects with its momentum better than antimatter. If this is true, large sources of gravity such as black holes may have allowed a small
additional $1.5 million because $2 million, “is not a big amount of money in the big scheme of things — it’s not.” Deputy Mayor Victoria Jonas said that she supports the park but doesn’t support raising taxes and thinks the city should consider selling property assets. City Manager David Johnston refuted that idea and said that it wouldn’t be likely to help with a near-term request, like that of funding Ravensdale Park. “Selling our assets isn’t going to be done quickly,” Johnston said. Councilman Sean Kelly said he agreed with Allison in supporting parks and also agreed with Gerken that the immediate top priority is the school bond. “I’m not wild about councilmanic bonds but I’m also not wild about waiting until 2015,” Kelly said. Councilwoman Erin Weaver said that she fully supports parks and prefers the idea of running a larger bond issue to also include funding for Summit Park and Ballfields. “I’m very surprised to hear that $1.5 million isn’t a big deal,” Weaver said. “Tell that to the two people who we laid off last year.” Weaver said that for her, the issue is about funding and the city’s resources.

“This all comes down to we don’t have $1.5 million to spend,” Weaver said. Members of the community, who turned out in force for the meeting decked out in team jerseys and apparel, spoke during the pubic comment period of Monday night’s meeting and said that they expected council to vote in support of funding the additional $1.5 million and were disappointed and frustrated by the council’s lack of action. Bruce Laing, who spoke on behalf of Ravensdale Park Foundation, said the foundation is out for permits to do construction and it can get the park built faster and cheaper than the city could and expressed his frustration. “There’s a lot of talk, there’s very little action,” Laing said. Also among those who spoke was Maple Valley Youth Soccer Association coach Scott Serpa. “For you guys not to have the intestinal fortitude to take a stand is beyond me,” Serpa said. “Figure out how to make it work. It’s why you’re here.”

regular dump. We decided on a powdered compound we found at Home Depot. You pour it into paint, it turns it from a liquid to a solid—really more of a gelatinous mixture. We chose it because it came in little packets like dehydrated soup. Hindsight, we probably should have gotten a couple bags of sand. Another couple hours were spent opening cans, pouring the powder in, stirring it up and waiting for it to do its job. We swept up, gathered other items for the recycle facility, poured powder, stirred, threw more items in the truck for the dump run. Around 2 p.m., we headed off to the dump with garbage, latex paint and hazardous waste. I haven’t even told you about the hazardous waste. After you dump your trash (and solidified latex paint), you weigh, pay, and make a U-turn and go into the hazardous waste area. They got pretty excited over the variety of our hazardous waste. They were training new people and suddenly had many new hazards to show the trainees, but really, being a small town in a remote area, they didn’t normally get much business, and certainly not such an assortment. I think we make their week. We then went back to the house and garage, satisfied Gretchen Leigh
My husband and I have been helping his parents clean out their home of 25 years. They’re getting ready to downsize and needed extra hands to help with this enormous task. My fatherin-law saved everything. And I mean everything. As we wrapped up cleaning the garage this last weekend, we finally had to deal with all those things we kept shoving into the corner to “deal with later.� I think there is a mindset that later will never come. But it always does. We spent the first hour we were there trying to get our bearings, but I really think we were overwhelmed deciding what to do with all the latex paint my husband’s father had collected. I’d like to say it was from projects he had done, but it really just came from thrift shops—it was a good deal at $2.00 a can. He may or may not have had projects in mind. Who knows? All I knew is it was time to deal with it. Have you ever tried to get rid of 20 gallons (give or take 10 gallons) of latex paint? Many months before, we had asked the people at the dump what to do with it. It’s not collected at the household hazardous waste sites anymore. They instructed us to solidify it with something, sand or dirt, then we could throw it away at the

with a job well done. But there was one more big paper elephant in the room: 40 plus years’ worth of paperwork. Every receipt, every bank statement, every credit card bill, every letter, every greeting card, other people’s letters and cards, every tax refund and all the papers that went with it. I know I said they’d lived in the house for only 25 years, but he moved all his papers with him every time he relocated. We hauled it all home with us. I had imagined I’d find the great shredding place in the sky, but I came up empty handed, at least for anything open over the weekend. We’re talking eight large garbage bags and three boxes full of paperwork. I’ll let you speculate what we may have decided to do with all this paperwork, but we did go through every bit of it. My husband and I bonded. We reminisced. I learned new things about his family. Our marriage is much stronger after this weekend, we didn’t kill each other. But next time we want to spend alone time together, we should just go out to dinner.

Autumn decorating a reminder of glorious season door. A football on display is optional. • Staple some large fall leaves onto a length of twine or thick yarn. Use this as a garland to outline a doorway or frame an outdoor window. • Pile fallen leaves into a bushel basket, metal wash tub, or wheelbarrow.

You’ll have your own cornucopia of plenty. • Make a dirt cheap scarecrow from old clothing that you stuff with fallen leaves. Use a bucket or pumpkin for the head of your leaf man.

The autumn foliage that falls from trees will not absorb herbicides from the soil – especially if the soil was treated months ago. RoundUp is a glysophate soap that breaks down quickly.

these three things: add a shovel full of soil to the bag to inoculate the leaves with leaf-chomping soil critters; poke holes into the plastic bag so the decaying leaves can get air; and, finally, store the bags out of site under a shrub, outdoor table or inside a garage or shed for the winter. Come spring you’ll have a leafy, moist mulch to spread around trees and shrubs that will smother the spring weeds and seal in moisture for the summer.

Patti Billet suffered her first breakdown six weeks into her first teaching job after she had to write a detailed student improvement plan for her students at Kent Mountain View Academy. “This is part of this profession that I have no idea about, I’m expected to know and I have no idea,” Billet said. Billet found help in a colleague and finished the plans, but new teachers don’t always have a veteran to help them learn the ropes. That’s where Kent School District’s Teacher Mentor Program steps in. The mentor program provides first and second year teachers with an experienced counterpart to help them through their first years. Whether it’s providing technical feedback on lessons and classroom management or giving emotional support to novice educators, mentors exist to ease a teacher’s integration into the district. “Teaching is a unique profession where you’re
expected to be a veteran on your first day,” said mentor Lynn Lofstrom. Lofstrom, along with Kjell Rowe and Cynthia Huber make up the three person mentor team at Kent Mountain View. Lofstrom works with kindergarten through eighth grade teachers and Rowe works with high school teachers. Huber fills in where necessary. “From the get-go, you have to be a professional, and it’s hard,” said Billet, who teaches sixth grade core classes and third grade math. “It’s a huge learning curve.” Billet, 28, graduated from Cal Lutheran University in 2007 with a degree in liberal studies but had to wait until she and her husband had the finances for graduate school. While she spent most of her time between schools working with children, she said she was unprepared for the sheer amount of management that comes with heading a classroom. “Your students are angels and want to please you, but once they figure out who you are, they start to test you,” Billet said.

her failures and successes at Sunrise Elementary. “I feel like when things go wrong you’re mad at yourself and when things go right you don’t have anybody to celebrate with,” Shilleto said. Lofstrom provided her with a way to celebrate her successes and commiserate in her failures. “I would have Lynn to share good things with, and she would be just as excited as I was,” Shilleto said. “And if I was upset about something she’d kind of talk me through it.” Having a trusted friend in the district, someone who isn’t evaluating their performances professionally as a principal would, has been invaluable for many teachers. Lofstrom said it’s a very rewarding line of work. “This is a fabulous job and what’s so exciting about it is we get to work with folks that are right out of a college program, they’re really excited about teaching and learning,” Lofstrom said.

Beyond meeting oneon-one with teachers, the mentors also host classes for teachers to improve their skills. After a particular class regarding getting students to participate even if they don’t know the answer, she felt her own classroom management skills improved. Billet said that having an experienced voice to share her concerns with has been cathartic to her experience. “Each time, whether I’m flustered or excited or I tell her things are going really great, she always says is there anything you want to talk about, how are things going with parents, she knows the right questions to ask. I can tell her exactly how I’m feeling,” Billet said. The mentors provide more than just assistance for classroom management or educational processes. They’re a key emotional support for teachers to go to when they feel overwhelmed or need to talk. This is how Leslie Shilleto felt when she first came to the district from Michigan.

All of these wrestlers went on to compete in college.
Kentlake junior Derek Welch follows in his brothers’ footsteps to the Falcons tennis team
BY ALEXANDRA BOLTON
For the Reporter
T
ennis is in the Welch family’s DNA. Junior Derek Welch continues a legacy started by his older brothers Landon, a 2007 graduate, and Taylor who graduated in 2010, on the Kentlake courts during their time as Falcons. He is currently dominating league play in the SPSL North as he warms up for another run at state in May. Welch, who is left handed, began his tennis career young, becoming more committed as he realized his natural aptitude. Playing with his brothers and practicing with their varsity teammates before entering high school himself, he was pleasantly surprised to be chosen as an alternate for state as a freshman. As a sophomore, he was frustrated with a tough draw that ended his post season in the quarterfinals of the state tournament. This year he intends to place. Alex Chan, a sophomore at Thomas Jefferson High School, beat Welch in the state tournament last year on his way to a fifth place finish. He will be back to challenge Welch in league play and maybe again at state. Otherwise, three of the four top finishers at
Kentlake’s Derek Welch returns serve against Tahoma’s in a match Oct. 4 at Tahoma High School. Welch is one of the top boys tennis singles player in the South Puget Sound League North. KRIS HILL, The Reporter state last year graduated, and the fourth, champion Mitch Stewart, is no longer playing high school tennis. Bolstered by these prospects, Kentlake’s head tennis coach Barry Fredericks is confident that Welch has the ability to do well come spring. Both Fredericks and Welch’s father, Rob Welch, who played tennis at Utah State University, think Welch’s serve is one of his greatest strengths. Being left-handed gives him
October 11, 2013 [13]
another advantage. A consistent player, Welch knows he has good ground strokes, but he has been working on his attack. “I’ve got to come to the net more and put pressure on the guy.” Welch said. Fredericks commented that Welch also lacks a real weapon, the shot that wins points. While this may not be as apparent in league play, where Welch has only lost one match the last two seasons, the competition
will intensify at the state level. Facing the possibility of knee surgery in November, Welch is trying to make it through the season without further injury. Welch described the dead bone on his knee cap that forces him to play through pain and with the knowledge that his next pivot could tear his ACL. Showing what Fredericks sees as a new level of maturity, Welch is taking his injury as an opportunity
to more often use practice as a time to help his teammates. Kentlake has a young team this year with only two seniors. Six of the 16 boys that make up the varsity and JV have never played tennis before. Welch sees himself as another coach, working with his teammates on technique and strategy. Practicing with someone of Welch’s caliber is also beneficial to the other players. “They don’t see anybody who hits the ball hard, except for Derek. It helps them.” Fredericks said. To prepare for state, Welch trains with Kent-Meridian High School’s head coach, Steve Walters. Welch works with Walters three to four times a week once his high school basketball season concludes in early February. Though neither of his brothers played college tennis, Welch would like to keep playing. “One of my buddies goes to Gonzaga and plays there, and I play with him quite a bit,” Welch said. “So, if I could play at Gonzaga, that’s my dream. Whether I play there or not, I think I have a good shot at playing at another Division II or smaller Division I.”

Tallud brings broad golf experience to Tahoma’s boys team BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com
Senior RJ Tallud is back on the golf course for the Tahoma Bears this year after spending the past two years traveling and playing in tournaments. Tallud, who is homeschooled via an online program, learned to play golf from his dad who taught him the game when the family moved to the Philippines when Tallud was 9. “I picked it up and fell in love with the game,” Tallud said. Earlier this season Tallud shot back to back rounds of 32 at Druids Glen on a par 36 and Jade Greens, on a par 35. The thing that Tallud said he loves most about the game is its competitive and individual nature. “All the victory was on me or all the defeat was on me,” he said.
While living in the Philippines, Tallud played on the Philippine Junior Golf Tour and the national tour of golf. Tallud moved back to the area in 2008 and attended Tahoma High for his freshman year. Tallud said the thing he likes best about doing online school is the freedom it gives him. He said the reason he decided to start doing school online was because he was traveling so often to play in tournaments and would be gone for three to five months at a time.

Kentlake struggles in loss to Auburn, Tahoma and KW roll BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com
Kentlake couldn’t hold off Auburn at French Field while Kentwood and Tahoma followed up by rolling over their opponents in the fifth week of South Puget Sound League 4A North play. Auburn’s ground game just could not be contained by Kentlake as the Trojans three-pronged running attack of Kieo Buchanan, Ercle Terrell and William Jefferies racked up yardage en route to a 60-38 win over the Falcons.
play from scrimmage in the second quarter to make it 21-6 Auburn with 3:51 left in the first half. Kentlake quarterback Tino Wells responded with a 52 yard touchdown run of his own but the two point conversion failed. Auburn’s lead was cut to 27-12.
Jordan Axelson started things off for Kentlake with a 21-yard touchdown run after the Falcons recovered a squib kick on the opening kickoff to set up deep inside Trojan territory. PREP
Buchanan then took the hand off on the first play from scrimmage for Auburn on its ensuing drive and took it 62 yards to the house to put the Trojans up 34-12 with 2:47 left in the first half.
FOOTBALL
Auburn answered two series later when Ercle Terrell capped a 63-yard drive with a 23 yard touchdown run with 5 minutes, 38 seconds left in the first quarter. Jefferies hustled 52 yards on the first
A promising start to the second half cut the Auburn lead to eight when Daunston Kaunda scored for Kentlake on its opening drive of the third quarter.
Tallud said that is his teammates and the camaraderie of the team. “Just hanging out with good guys and the team being there for each other,” Tallud said. In golf, Tallud said, the mental aspects of the game are one of the greatest challenges. “Your worst enemy is yourself and that’s really brought out in golf,” Tallud said. Playing at the Manila Golf Course with two of his uncles and two professional players stands out to Tallud as his favorite round of golf he has played. “The weather was great
Kaunda scored again for Kentlake after an Auburn fumble on the Trojans 22 yard line. The Falcons punched in the twopoint conversion but then Buchanan took the ensuing kickoff from his own 14 to stretch the lead back out to 41-26 with 5:06 left in the third quarter.
and the course was beautiful,” Tallud said. “It’s something I’ll cherish forever.” Tahoma golf coach Mike Hanson said that Tallud is an asset to the team and has an incredible work ethic. “He shows up every day and works really, really, really hard. He’s really dedicated,” Hanson said. “As a golfer on the course he’s just incredibly talented.” Hanson said Tallud is always willing to help out his teammates and support them. “All the kids have a ton of respect for him so it’s not surprising they listen to him,” Hanson said. Tallud said after high school he plans on getting a college degree and also wants to continue golfing and hopes to someday go pro. “He’s really a focused kid,” Hanson said of what stands out to him most about Tallud. “Then the really obvious one is he’s really stinking good at golf.”

Maple Valley Rotary annual auction supports the community Winter is coming fast and as the weather is rapidly changing and the nights are getting colder, my thoughts go to the people in our community who are at risk. There are many single parent families who are one mishap away from living in their car or worse. Vine Maple Place provides emergency housing and self sufficiency programs for up to 12 families at a time. The nonprofit’s new project, Stable Families, is this year’s Fund-a-Need at Maple Valley Rotary’s annual auction set for Saturday, Oct. 19, at Green River Community College. The program focuses on catching families before they end up at the point where homelessness is inevitable. Through this program, Vine Maple Place can help scores more families than what it has physical housing for. Next time you feel the chill in the air that harkens the coming of winter, please consider filling a seat at the auction. What does it really cost to attend an auction? Let’s
be real. We know that most people who attend auctions spend some money. Some spend quite a lot and some, not so much, but we all know that if we go, there is bound to be something we just can’t leave without. We also know that fear of overspending can keep some people from attending at all, but then they hear about what an amazing time they missed and are left wondering why they didn’t go. Maple Valley Rotary is hosting its 24th annual auction which, since its humble beginnings to fund scholarships alone, has become the major fundraising activity for the entire year’s budget. In order for it to be successful, it must be well attended and must have offerings that create buzz. We are asking our friends in the community to support us with attendance, donations and sponsorship. Our very generous sponsors are making it possible to put all proceeds including the sale of dinner tickets toward the many projects and programs the club does or supports throughout the year.
I would like to talk about the benefits to our attendees. Since we know everyone is thinking long and hard about how to spend their money, how much to give to charitable organizations, how much to spend on entertainment and vacations, etc., I have to say that after attending eight or nine Maple Valley Rotary auctions, I consider them to be at the very top of the list of perfect evenings out. The dÊcor is always lovely, attendees are dressed to the nines, the hospitality is over the top, and the party atmosphere is palpable. It is just plain fun and the dancing is as much fun for those who watch as for those on the dance floor! I got to sample the menu which is absolutely marvelous this year and Bill VanRuff is going to continue the champagne greeting that Sean Henderson started last year. You don’t get a high quality meal out with cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, dessert, and entertainment anywhere for the price. Speaking of entertainment, our emcee Denny Pierre and auctioneer Brett Habenicht, are
two of the funniest people I have ever known. Prepare to spend an evening laughing and building up your endorphin supply — which saves on doctor bills. This is not going to be your typical live auction! And back to conscientious spending, let’s be honest here. We all know that the silent part of any auction contains bargains. There are items ranging from themed baskets for entertaining, enjoying with family or giving as gifts, to trips large and small, theater tickets, household items, sports memorabilia, massage, and many things you didn’t even know you could get for a song. Your entertainment and Christmas shopping budget can be stretched at the auction. The most exciting thing as far as I’m concerned is the raffle. We don’t have it nailed down yet so I can’t tell you exactly what the item is but it is a trip, and one that is so amazing that the ticket price isn’t even 1 percent of the value! You must attend to participate and win and tickets are limited. I’m going to buy mine

INTRODUCING‌

before I do anything else! What I am trying to say here is that attending our auction will be an evening of entertainment that is a terrific value in itself and that what you spend at the auction can actually save you money in several categories such as entertainment, travel, gift giving, and who knows what else. Transferring money you would spend anyway to do double duty as community support makes good financial sense. With the auction little more than a week away we are at the critical part now. We still need silent auction items and a few very amazing live auction items. If you have a fantastic idea, would like to donate an item or experience or know of something or someone we can get, please contact Bill VanRuff at billvanruff@ msn.com. He is also your contact if you would like to sponsor the auction and have your business highlighted there, on Facebook, on our website, and in the catalog, or if you would like to attend — by the way, major sponsors receive tickets
