Rally for Arts raises more than $126,000 PACC fundraiser brings donations to almost $600,000
County will put own legislation to voters if state transportation package isn’t created
gallmain@fedwaymirror.com
The Federal Way Coalition of the Performing Arts (FWCPA) reported that it surpassed its goal of $100,000 in pledges by hitting $126,525 for its fundraiser “Rally for the Arts,” which took place on Nov. 23. That $126,625 will add to the nearly $475,000 the group had raised in direct donations and pledges prior to the event. The FWCPA, which was formed in 1989 to promote and help raise funds for a large performance hall in Federal Way, has been helping with the “capital campaign” portion of the proposed Performing Arts and Conference Center (PACC) that city leaders are trying to build in downtown Federal Way. FWCPA member Joann Piquette was extremely happy with the results from the Nov. 23 event. [ more pacc page 13 ]

Federal Way teen Kajmere Houchins’ goal of including students in the process of creating anti-bullying policies in schools got a significant boost earlier this month. The Washington State Board of Education (WSBE) approved Houchins’ resolution to include students in the process. After Houchins’ presentation to the WSBE in September, the issue was handed over to
WSBE student board members Mara Childs and Eli Ulmer. From their perspective, Houchins’ resolution made perfect sense, according to a release from the WSBE. “The ways in which kids interact with each other are changing quickly and it is hard for adults to keep up,” Childs said in a news release. “Anonymous question sites, social media, texts, and instant messages are a recipe for bullying. Kids are ahead of the game when it comes to technology and they hold the most weight in changing student behavior.” Ulmer noted that bullying has a ripple effect in school communities, which creates even more stress and worry among students. “Bullying doesn’t affect just the bully and their target. There are also [ more bullying page 27 ]

Way City Council in January. She filled a vacant position, but lost her election bid in November. She is grateful for her time on the council and will continue her public service. The most memorable accomplishment during her time in Federal Way involved the city’s incorporation efforts in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The county wanted $30,000 for an environmental study, but the process was mired in bureaucratic red tape. “It was like an impossible goal,” she said. Noble-Gulliford joined the citizen group that persuaded government officials to assist with the incorpora-
tion effort. At the time, she learned about the link between government decisions and quality of life. Traffic and apartment complexes took a foothold in the area, and the people were suffering. The struggle to incorporate Federal Way sparked a decades-long interest in community planning. Noble-Gulliford eventually served on the city’s planning commission. Federal Way City Councilmember Susan Honda nominated Noble-Gulliford for The Mirror’s Citizen of the Month. “Diana is one of those people who serves others without letting everyone
know what she does. She doesn’t need others to praise her and write about her. She does what needs to be done without fanfare. She just does it,” Honda wrote. “She is a hero in my eyes for everything she has done. Diana is not afraid to stand up for what she believes in, even if it isn’t the popular thing to do.”

Neither Walmart nor McDonalds add value to the local economy How much more will you tolerate in the name of saving a buck or get a faster cooked burger before you say “enough?” Recently, two major names that have multiple units here in Federal Way took insulting their employees to another level. Walmart had a Thanksgiving meal food drive for their employees, asking customers and employees to donate food in pretty little

Big errors define mayoral race dia. It looked misleading to the public. Then Priest, who is a financial conservative, came out strongly in favor of the PACC as an economic development tool. While that was the leadership many PACC supporters were seeking, the significant costs were not popular among many of the city’s lower income residents. More importantly, it started to define the issues of the election to Ferrell’s advantage. The Pinewood murders then brought Ferrell into the race, with crime joining the PACC and economic development in the election debate. Next came the complaint by Councilmember Kelly Maloney about Priest’s behavior. Priest’s temperament, or “direct mode” as he called it, was not a secret to most insiders, but the general public was unaware of it. Priest’s supporters felt the press should not have reported the complaint. Others felt that not reporting it would have looked like a coverup. Some accused the Ferrell camp. Priest’s political background showed, as he won the public relations battle with Maloney among the city’s movers and shakers. However, Maloney, who was not previously well known, had a very strong primary vote, suggesting she had gained credibility with the average voter. That would become bad news for Priest. In the continuing saga of twists and turns came the second investigation about the mayor. Video footage showed him picking up his campaign signs from the city “sign jail” late at night. The question in town was, “what was the mayor doing out at 10 p.m. picking up signs?” Didn’t he have a campaign worker that could do that [ more ROEGNER, page 7 ] Bob Roegner
Other suburban cities have had the “strong mayor” system for more than 100 years. But in Federal Way, it is still a new experience, as this year marked only our second election under the new system. It exposed some raw feelings and class distinctions along with some surprising decisions that would frame and ultimately alter the election. Three years ago, Republican State Rep. Skip Priest defeated Republican Federal Way City Councilmember Jim Ferrell for the position. Ferrell remained on the council, but kept a low profile, with only a few disagreements with Priest — although he didn’t support the Performing Arts and Conference Center (PACC). Ferrell has since switched parties and became a Democrat, at least in part to keep his political options open. Early in the year, there were rumors that Priest was reluctant to run. In fact, some of his supporters said he didn’t really seem to be enjoying the job. Ferrell wasn’t sure he could defeat Priest, so he announced he wouldn’t run. Most political observers felt Priest might run unopposed and was strong enough to control his own destiny against Ferrell or anyone else. But then Priest made a key error, along with a strategic decision, that would set the tone for the election and re-emerge many times during the campaign. In making his announcement for re-election, Priest used old 2011 crime statistics that were more advantageous to him than the more current 2012 statistics. Ferrell and the Federal Way Police Officers Guild, who wanted Ferrell to run, noticed this along with the me-

It was in November 2007 that I first met Andy Hobbs. I had sent him an article I had written for parents about handling holiday stress. In addition, I was passionate about a new sexuality education ministry we had started at our church called Our Whole Lives/Sexuality and Our Faith. I mentioned in my email that I’d like to talk with him about a series of articles for The Mirror about sexuality education for parents, if he was interested. I hit send. Truth be told, my heart was pounding a little bit. I mean, I had just proposed to some editor I didn’t know that I’d write some articles for the local paper about sex. How crazy was that? Not five minutes later, the phone rang, and the next day, I was having a face-to-face meeting with the indomitable Mr. Hobbs. Andy liked my idea. He said I approached the subject respectfully and thoughtfully and that he’d give me a chance. I suppose it’s fitting that it was again November of this year that I met with Andy face-to-face once again. This time to say thank you and goodbye as he embarks on a new adventure in Olympia. We spent time reminiscing about some of the more controversial Sex in the Suburbs articles. Like when I wrote about states that outlawed sex toys, but not semi-assault weapons. I got a bunch of angry and condescending emails, and he got angry letters to the editor that called me names and said I didn’t know what I was talking about. Later, I wrote about — If Jesus were a girl — and focused on women’s issues and got lots of women writing to tell me I couldn’t possibly be a real Christian. And there was the man who wrote in to say he’d no longer read the paper because I’d ruined Christmas by asking people to think about how they’d feel if Santa were gay. Andy says he admires my courage to write these things in the paper. I admire his willingness to publish them. We both value the newspaper as a venue to present a variety of opinions and invite people to think. I always knew that whether people were angry with what I wrote or applauding it, Andy would be smiling. The conversation is what matters to both of us. At this time of year, I am especially thankful that we live in a society and a community where free speech is valued. People have all kinds of opinions in Federal Way and The Mirror prints a variety of them. Though Andy has moved on, I’m not planning to go anywhere anytime soon. So thanks to you, Federal Way, whether you’re someone who embraces your “sex lady,” argues with her, laughs with her, condemns her, asks her for help, prays for her soul, or feels compassion with her about issues that affect the children and families in our community. What matters is that we keep the conversation alive.

bins. McDonalds posted some tips to help their employees make it through hard times on their McResource employee support website. One tip instructed that employees could stretch their food a bit farther if they busted it up in pieces, and another tip said that they could sell unneeded personal items on eBay or Craigslist to raise additional funds.
To add to insult, McResourses has a link to their state DSHS website so the employees can apply for food stamps. Both of these companies continue to see profits rise each year. Their executive management receives pay raises and obscene bonuses, and the employees see none of it. The other thing they share in common is they are the biggest
benefactors of the social safety net. Each Walmart store, according to Dailykos exploits approximately $400,000 annually in social welfare due to the fact that they do not provide a living wage. Their CEO makes more in one day than the average employee makes in one year, all the while the corporation makes over $15 billion in clear pure profit. Walmart is also guilty of distorting union values. Here in Federal Way, it would be an interesting study to see how much Walmart receives in tax breaks for their two stores and how [ more LETTERS, page 8 ]

Q&A with Mr. FW: The collective ‘we’ can make a difference
during the day? Since a police officer apparently saw the mayor, it is likely that the guild knew about the issue. News of the video footage spread. The facts, as reported in a police department press release authorized by the chief, seemed to suggest there wasn’t anything wrong. But this is where Priest was placed in a no-win situation. The chief, city attorney and mayor knew they had to have an outside review or they would be accused of a coverup. But to the public, the chief asking for the attorney general to investigate sounded like the mayor had done something very wrong. We still don’t know the answer, as the investigation has not been reported as of press time. But two investigations are hard to overcome in an election. During the two biggest debates of the election sponsored by The Mirror and Federal Way Chamber of Commerce, Ferrell was the aggressor as he raised public safety, the PACC and other Priest weaknesses. Priest was on the defensive, and even though Ferrell had his own vulnerabilities, Priest didn’t exploit them. This was a strategic error, as Ferrell was clearly gaining ground. As the candidates headed into the home stretch, a story broke about a little girl and the city telling her she had to get rid of one of her pet pygmy goats. The issue gave voters an idea of the candidates’ sensitivity to problem solving, children and animals. Priest made the first move by meeting with the girl. Ferrell didn’t react. But when Priest didn’t follow up, Ferrell did, and he won crucial political points. The council didn’t change anything, but Ferrell
bittersweet after Neu and the school board go back to a more traditional grading system. What is Mr. Federal Way going to write about every week? Q: Mr. Federal Way, what are you thankful for on this Thanksgiving? A: Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks (hence the name of the holiday). And there’s a lot of thanks to go around that has made Mr. Federal Way who Mr. Federal Way is. Mr. Federal Way gives a big thank you to the patriarch of Federal Way’s first family — Mr. Federal Way’s dad. It was he who gave Mr. Federal Way the ability to look at every situation through sarcastic-colored glasses. Thanks for that, dad. Mr. Federal Way would also like to give thanks to Mr. Federal Way’s mom. She was always there for Mr. Federal Way and makes the best pumpkin pie known to man. Lastly, Mr. Federal Way would like to thank former Mirror editor Andy Hobbs, whose last day was Friday. Hobbs has moved up in the journalism world and is now a
got the political benefit from the public. Then in another unforced error, the school board adopted a resolution thanking Priest for actions he took three years ago as a state representative. With a majority of the board and the superintendent supporting Priest’s re-election, the tribute was seen as a thinly veiled endorsement. The Public Disclosure Commission called it “suspect.” Public reaction was negative. Lastly, it was well known that Priest and his supporters were unhappy with the media. In the closing weeks, the Tacoma News Tribune endorsed Priest and The Mirror endorsed Ferrell. However, in looking at the membership on The Mirror’s editorial board, most observers — including Ferrell — expected Priest to get the endorsement. That he didn’t get the endorsement raises questions about his preparation. Priest also declined to do any advertising in The Mirror, which could have given him his best opportunity to define himself on his own terms. He missed an opportunity to show popular supporters such as House leader Rep. Pat Sullivan (D) or Secretary of State Kim Wyman (R), or former candidate for governor Rob McKenna (R). It was another questionable political decision, and it left the ad pages to Ferrell alone. In the end, Priest simply made too many mistakes, and Ferrell made almost none. On election night, Ferrell won comfortably in a race that could have gone the other way. Federal Way resident Bob Roegner, a former mayor of Auburn: bjroegner@comcast.net.
reporter at The Olympian. But it was Hobbs who cultivated the idea for Mr. Federal Way writing the Mr. Federal Way column. Obviously, Mr. Federal Way puts the words on paper and the opinions belong to Mr. Federal Way, not Hobbs. However, Hobbs is the one who kept pushing Mr. Federal Way to push the boundaries and to hold the city, school district and everyone else accountable for their actions. Hobbs is a true “journalist” and Federal Way’s loss is Olympia’s gain. Mr. Federal Way will continue writing Mr. Federal Way’s column, but it will be a little different not having Hobbs looking over the copy before it “hits the streets” of Federal Way. Q: Mr. Federal Way, what can we do to make Federal Way a better place to live? It seems like the city has been getting a lot of bad press lately. A: Mr. Federal Way loves living in Federal Way. This comes despite poking fun and pointing out things that Mr. Federal Way doesn’t agree with. Mr. Federal
Way has chosen to live in Federal Way and will continue to live here. How can we make Federal Way a better place to live? There’s a pretty easy answer — get involved. During this Thanksgiving break, Mr. Federal Way would like to point out how to get involved in making Federal Way a better place. Volunteering is a huge part of making a city like Federal Way a great community. And there are volunteer opportunities all over Federal Way. All you have to do is look a little bit. Federal Way’s website, cityoffederalway.com, has a huge list of volunteer opportunities around the city and the list is updated quarterly. There is also a volunteer application that people can fill out and someone will be in contact with you to discuss potential opportunities. Happy volunteering. Q: Mr. Federal Way, do you get paid for writing your column? A: None of your business. Got a question for Mr. Federal Way? Email mrfederalway@federalwaymirror.com
New mayor must live up to slogan The election results are known and it is important to thank all who sought elected office, congratulate those who were elected, and thank those who served but are not returning. Skip Priest deserves additional accolades for his years of service as a city council member, state legislator and as Federal Way's first elected mayor. He became mayor at a time when Federal Way’s operating expenses were greater than its revenues, and he worked diligently to manage costs. He was willing to make tough decisions, and sometimes those decisions were under-appreciated or misunderstood. But let’s be honest, while Federal Way is a decent place to live, it is a city with lots of challenges going forward. Mayor-elect Jim Ferrell now has the responsibility of living up to his campaign slogan of “We can do better.” Running for office is different than governing and leading. As a voter, I believe all elected officials believe they can do better. I’d like to believe their efforts are on behalf of the community rather than themselves or specific interests, but the reality is both aspects intertwine. A Mark Twain quote is often applied to the art of politics: “It is easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled.” Frankly, Federal Way got off
to a late start at being a city. Much of this city’s growth occurred before it incorporated in 1990. Developers conceived it as a bedroom community in an unincorporated part of King County. It was loosely planned without any real governance. The promise of low-cost homes was attractive to individuals or families not focused on the elements necessary to build a sustainable and exciting city. Now at 90,000 residents, Federal Way is being challenged to become more than a bedroom suburb. Bedroom communities generally have a solid base of middle to upper income residents living in quality homes that retain and grow in property valuation. In turn, this generates tax revenue to cover services, build and maintain infrastructure, and establish a basic to high quality of life for its residents. Federal Way is attractive to entry-level homebuyers and considered by many — because property values are perceived as reasonable — as a good opportunity. This can be an advantage for attracting new residents. But if they come with low expectations and a desire to keep values low because of their means, this is a negative, and this city will fail in its efforts in attracting businesses that are able to support nextKeith Livingston
[ roegner from page 6]
These are steps in the right direction. Mr. Federal Way firmly believes that Neu and the school board will make the changes necessary to change the current system’s “power law” equation that unfairly penalizes students and teachers. “We appreciate your communication and advocacy on behalf of your students,” Neu wrote. “We are working to move swiftly but with care. We must ensure any changes made are appropriate to the needs of all 22,000 students, and that grades are consistent with the skills and knowledge students have when they complete the course.” Mr. Federal Way thanks Neu and the school board for listening. It’s appreciated. Mr. Federal Way also thanks the parents, students and teachers who spoke up regarding the grading issues. Like Mr. Federal Way tells his kids, the collective “we” can make a difference. But it’s going to be a little
COMMENTARY
Q: It looks like Federal Way Public Schools are going back to a more traditional grading system. Can I get Mr. Federal Way’s thoughts? A: Mr. Federal Way has been all over the Federal Way school district over the past couple of months, criticizing a lot of the decisions that have been coming out of the district’s offices. But now it’s time for Mr. Federal Way to give the district a little pat on the back. At first, it really seemed like they weren’t listening to the general public regarding the controversial standards-based grading system. However, the district finally is doing something about all the complaints. They are listening and changes are coming. Last week, the district sent out a survey regarding the grading system, and Superintendent Rob Neu penned a letter to parents and guardians stating that “modifications are needed.”
generation jobs and economic sustainability. Every council and mayor since incorporating believed they could do better. If one takes the time to look at the progression of this city since 1990, they have. It has not been a straight line, nor has it always happened with a clear vision. Also, it has often been done over the objections of this city’s old core of regressive thinkers who did not support incorporation or the school initiatives that would have put this city on the fast track to being the premier city in the South Puget Sound. If "we can do better” means we will be progressive in our thinking, let’s do it. Let’s invest in cultural resources, focus on supporting our schools, improve neighborhoods and existing housing stock, upgrade our visual infrastructure with an aesthetic flourish, and find developers who are interested in building a quality product with an eye toward creating an economically sustainable community. If we establish high expectations for ourselves as a city, we will succeed in becoming a high-energy attractive city built to support the needs of its residents and businesses. If we don’t do better, please re-read Mark Twain’s quote. Federal Way resident Keith Livingston: keithlivingstondesign@gmail.com

I would bet that that Walmart doesn’t add any real value to our local economy and tax base.

I’ll bet very few of the Federal Way Walmart employ-

So while you are preparing your Thanksgiving evening shopping list, ask yourself why you find it beneficial to be roped into the store like cattle on Thanksgiving night by our capitalist culture.

Walmart employees are not paid premium pay for putting their napkins down and putting on their blue smock so

Randall Smith, Federal Way
Be involved in Grading System Conversation I hope as many individuals as possible will take advantage of the opportunity
to provide feedback to the school district through the FWPS parent and teacher survey issued this week. If you only received one parent survey for your family, it is possible for another guardian to request an additional survey under a separate email account following links on the district website. At the same time, I would like to encourage all parents and students to be aware and participate in current conversations related to grading. The current FWPS
grading system is not functioning for some students as it was intended. Parents of students experiencing unintended consequences have been extremely vocal to demand immediate change, and any change could potentially impact every student in every class at every grade level. If you didn’t attend the Nov. 26 School Board meeting, be sure to watch the cable broadcast, live stream or YouTube video archive. I expected Superintendent Neu to make a
proposal and the Board of Education to take some form of action to correct unintended grade results. Any decision taken, or lack of action altogether, could potentially impact every student. Become informed about the grading system. The current system is a complex multi-layered calculation, influenced by varying interpretations of academic policies and methods by which teachers collect and input assess[ more letters page 9 ]

Our schools need painting here, not in Ghana Just got my copy of the Mirror and read the article on Superintendent Neu’s promise. Yes a bold promise. Moving on. Then I read about the principal at Decatur High School in Ghana painting a school. So, how does that work? We help other countries, but not our own. Hmm, OK, I get it. If I’m not mistaken, don’t we have kids here that need
help with the 3 r’s? And by the way, who do we know in Ghana? The money we spent on sending the principal to Ghana could have been used for tutors, books, and educating the American kids right here in Federal Way. I see the city is more worried about the PACC than our children. I don’t know about you, but I live here in Federal Way, not Ghana, or any other country. Let’s fix our house first.

www.federalwaymirror.com “We are really so pleased with the results, because a lot of people scoffed that we would be able to raise that kind of money in one event like this,” Piquette said. “We’re thrilled that we exceeded what we hoped for.” At the Rally for the Arts, “six local performing groups presented musical performances, with fund raising rallies interspersed between acts.” According to the FWCPA, “several audience members pledged for naming rights for seats in the PACC, and the (FWCPA) pledged $50,000 toward naming rights for a meeting room in the facility.” Piquette and the FWCPA are continuing their grant writing campaign, which Piquette said is very much a “waiting game” for some of the grants they have applied for during this recent round of fundraising. The PACC is projected to cost approximately $32 million, with the city able to cover approximately $16 million. The city is exploring a number of options to make up the difference, among them a federal tax credit program and organizations like the FWCPA and its fundraising drives.
Community team up to serve families The Federal Way Police Department (FWPD) will renew its partnership with Grace Church this year for the annual “Adopt-a-Family Program”, according to a press release from FWPD. Federal Way Public Schools (FWPS) plays a role in the process by helping FWPD and Grace Church identify families in need. “This partnership has successfully increased our service to a growing number of families annually,” said FWPD chief Brian Wilson. Grace Church and FWPD are set to host a Christmas Experience for 60 families this year, which will include “activities, entertainment, presents and a stocking for the children.” The adopted family will also go home with a Christmas ham for their family dinner. The Christmas Experience will be held from 7-9 p.m. on December 13, at Grace Church (1232 SW Dash Point Rd, Federal Way). According to FWPD, this year’s event can
handle double the amount of families, thanks to The Korum for Kids Foundation and other community sponsors in the city and throughout the region. Grace Church senior pastor Jon McIntosh is happy to be able to serve more families this year. “It is a privilege to help facilitate yet another expression of our officers and police support staff as they continue to serve our city, and serve our neediest families,” he said. “We are deeply grateful to the Federal Way Police Department, their labor groups, and the Federal Way school district for the way they model both servant leadership and the power of partnership.” Those interested in helping can drop of a new, unwrapped toy or food donation to the FWPD at City Hall (333325 8th Ave S). Those interested in making a financial donation can make those donations out to Federal Way Police Department, Attention: Lynette Allen Adopt-a-Family Program.
Wild Waves park to host holiday lights Holiday with Lights,
OPEN 6AM BLACK FRIDAY WE’LL SEE YOU FOR BREAKFAST! FRIDAYY! ONL BER NOVE2M9
Wild Waves Theme Park’s annual nod to the holidays, is set to return on December 6. The park’s one million lights are set to transform the usual summer attraction into a Winter Wonderland, according to a press release from the park. “We can’t wait to flip the switch on Holiday with Lights and ring in the season,” said Wild Waves general manager Todd Suchan. “It’s a wonderful time to be at the park, and a great opportunity for local families to build a fun holiday tradition.” December 6 marks a month’s worth of festivities as “Santa Claus arrives at Wild Waves Theme Park for the ceremonial Christmas tree lighting at 5:30 p.m.” Until Dec. 23, “children
can visit Santa’s Workshop in the North Pole to get a photo with Jolly St. Nick, and tell him what’s on their Christmas list.” According to the park, “Mrs. Claus will also be providing hot cocoa and treats throughout the park.” On Dec. 7, Dec. 14, and Dec. 21, “families can enjoy classic holiday carols sung by Brooklake Christian School Choir”, at 7 and 8:30 p.m. Children twelve and under are invited to Toyland, where there’s a “winter crafts tent, (a) letter writing station to Santa, (a) snowfilled area to play in and festive photo stand-ins.” Frosty the Snowman and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer are also expected to be in attendance throughout the month, and
will treat guests to a “festive sing-a-long on the Toyland stage every day at 6:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.” Another children’s favorite, Brobee from the TV show “Yo Gabba Gabba” is slated to be available for a meet-and-greet after the daily sing-a-longs. Ticket prices for Holiday with Lights are $12.99 for adults, and $9.99 for children under 48” tall at the gate. Discounted tickets of $9.99 are now available online and at 45 Safeway locations starting Dec. 2. 37 local Denny’s restaurants will also have coupons good for one free photo with Santa available throughout the month.

One for the books, Eagles down Richland Federal Way will play in the state semifinals for the first time since 1976 Saturday against Pasco’s Chiawana By CASEY OLSON
sports@fedwaymirror.com
The Federal Way Eagles made history Friday night. For the first time since 1976, the Eagles will play in the state’s Final Four. Federal Way beat the Richland Bombers 41-34 in the Class 4A state quarterfinal football game at Federal Way Memorial Stadium. The win earned the Eagles a semifinal berth against Chiawana at noon at Edgar Brown Stadium in Pasco on Saturday. The winner will play for the state championship on Dec. 7 at the Tacoma Dome. Chiawana beat Wenatchee in the quarterfinals Saturday at the Apple Bowl. “This feels amazing,” said senior fullback/linebacker Eric Ah Fua, who had some huge runs up the middle against Richland. “I can’t even put into words what’s going through my mind right now. It’s so amazing. We are making history at Federal Way.” Friday night’s loss by Richland (10-2) was the Bombers’ first since being blown out in the third week of the season by Chiawana (11-1). Chiawana, a relatively Federal Way senior quarterback Keenan Curran led the Eagles to a 41-34 win over the Richland Bombers Friday night at Federal Way Memorial Stadium in the Class 4A quarterfinals. Curran finished with 207 yards rushing. casey olson, The Mirror [ more Eagles page 19 ]

Federal Way native J.R. Celski ended the World Cup season in impressive fashion last weekend in Russia. Celski won a pair of gold medals and a bronze at the ISU World Cup in Kolomna. Celski won the 1,500 meters and anchored the United States’ 5,000-meter relay team. He also finished third in the 1,000 in Russia. “I’m really happy to have won gold in the 1,500,” Celski said. “It’s really cool to have the opportunity to race the best skaters in the world and I’m grateful to have come out on top. This competition is important as we are qualifying spots for the Olympics, so it’s nice to know that the USA can compete and win on [ more celski page 18 ]
play the winner of a game between Camas and Bellarmine Prep on Dec. 7 in the Tacoma Dome. Camas and Bellarmine Prep are playing Saturday inside the Tacoma Dome. Why Chiawana will win: The Redhawks have been on a huge roll. The secondranked Pasco school is a perfect 10-0 when playing
teams from Washington. Their only loss came to Lake City High School from Idaho, 33-26. But in their 10 wins, the Riverhawks have been dominant. They have scored 40 or more points in all 10 games and have been over 50 in their two state tournament games, wins over Moses Lake and Wenatchee. [ more preview page 18 ]

Lamar Neagle has been doing a lot of moving since he finished school at UNLV in the summer of 2009. After making five stops along the way, though, he has found himself back in his comfort zone playing forward for his hometown Sounders FC, breaking out with eight goals in his fifth profesLamar Neagle sional season and earning recognition as a finalist for MLS Comeback Player of the Year.

season with the Montreal Impact in 2012. “I took a step back in Montreal and that was frustrating. But once I got regular playing time, it built my confidence and I was finally able to put a few in the back of the net,” said Neagle, who graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School. “I keep going back to my confidence and my belief. I was moved around so much and when that happens, you start to question yourself and if you’re able to play. Once I started playing, there was a different kind of freedom about how I was on the field and that helped me a lot.” Neagle struggled to find that rhythm at the start of the year, playing just nine minutes in the first four matches of the regular season. In the first match that he registered more than two shots, though, he injected an offensive burst, scoring two goals in a 4-0 win over the San Jose Earthquakes. That sparked a stretch of four starts that saw him tally four goals and three assists. While his personal confidence was at a peak, one contributing factor to that self-assurance was the confidence of another welltraveled teammate – Obafemi Martins. An international star who had played with some of
TJ grad Lamar Neagle is one of three nominees for MLS Comeback Player of the Year. The award will be announced Dec. 2. file photo the top clubs in the world, Martins saw something in Neagle that assured him that they could succeed together and Neagle cherished the opportunity to learn alongside a player of his caliber. “Right away, we connected. I was going to work for him from the start and I knew he was going to work for me,” Neagle said. “He genuinely wanted me to do well and that made me want to work even more. That kind of partnership made it great playing with him.” In 14 matches that the duo started together, they combined for eight goals and six assists while Seattle went 8-3-3. It wasn’t the first time that a player of international renown saw something
special in Neagle though. When he was with the team in 2009 and in training camp in 2010, Freddie Ljungberg also spoke highly of Neagle’s practice habits, though they never saw time together in games before Neagle went to the Charleston Battery, where he was the 2010 USL-2 MVP and Golden Boot winner. “He was constantly giving me pointers,” Neagle said of Ljungberg. “I don’t know what it is, but I’m grateful every time I can learn from these guys that have had such great careers. That gives me even more confidence – connecting with these players and knowing they believe in me.” In 2011, Neagle scored five goals for Sounders FC, including a hat trick at
home against the Columbus Crew. In the offseason, he was dealt to Montreal along with Mike Fucito for Eddie Johnson and struggled to regain his form from 2011. Now back in Seattle, he is more comfortable than ever playing in front of friends and family. How comfortable? Neagle scored all eight of his regular season goals at CenturyLink Field, drawing chants of his native telephone area code “2-5-3” from the Emerald City Supporters. As rewarding as that is, Neagle knows that if he can find similar success away from home he can continue to climb the MLS ladder. “It’s great to hear the whole ECS chanting ‘253.’ It’s nice to have that backing,” Neagle said. “To get to the next level, I need to expand that comfort zone. This year has shown me that I can be one of the better players in the league and that’s what I want to be.” In his three seasons with Seattle, Neagle is fifth on the list of all-time scorers with 13 goals. A perpetual workhorse, Neagle hopes to improve his technical ability in the offseason as he looks to climb higher on that list. “I think a lot of this year, I relied on hard work and my speed got me through a lot,” he said. “My first touch and finishing and decisionmaking need improvement.
In the offseason, I hope to work on that.” Neagle is up against Conor Casey of the Philadelphia Union and Kevin
Alston of the New England Revolution for Comeback Player of the Year. The award will be announced on December 2.

this level.” Celski won the 1,500-meter title after a photo finish and beat Russia in the relay. The 23-year-old currently lives and trains in Utah. Celski now returns to Salt Lake City to continue his training for the U.S. Olympic Short Track Trials, which will take place Jan. 2-5 in Utah. The 2014 Winter Olympic Games will be in Sochi, Russia, Feb. 7-23. Celski is hoping to qualify for his second Olympic Games. He brought home two bronze medals from the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, as a 20-year-old. Celski’s career started as a 4-year-old inline skater at Federal Way’s Pattison’s West with his father, Bob, and two brothers, Chris and David. After numerous inline national championships, Celski switched over to the ice as a 12-year-old. Celski is the current world record holder in the 500 meters. He is the first person to skate a sub-40 in the distance, setting the world record with a time of 39.937 in the first World Cup of last season on Oct. 21, 2012. Celski won the 2012 overall title at the U.S. Senior Short Track Speedskating National Championships in December.

Offensively, the Riverhawks are a little different than Federal Way, in the fact they have a balanced offense led by quarterback Joey Zamora. The Eagles have completed only one pass in their last two games and it was a halfback pass by Chico McClatcher. Zamora has thrown five touchdowns during Chiawana’s three-game postseason run.

a full-ride to play running back at Stanford. Why Federal Way will win: The Eagles have fallen behind 14-0 in their last two playoff games and came back to beat Skyline and Richland. But falling behind to Chiawana might not be the recipe for a win. The Riverhawks seem to be a more complete team, with a solid offense, defense and special teams. It also hurts that Federal Way will be making the four-hour bus ride over the Cascade Mountains to the Tri-Cities to play on Chiawana’s home field at Edgar Brown Stadium. But the Eagles have gotten used to winning on the road during their three-game postseason run. Federal Way beat Edmonds-Woodway and Skyline on their home fields, before taking care of Richland in Federal Way. Obviously, the Eagles will be leaning heavily on Keenan Curran and Chico McClatcher, who might be the most dynamic duo in the state this season. Both are over 2,000 yards of total offense apiece and both have rushed for over 1,500 yards in 12 games. McClatcher, a junior, has rushed for 1,542 yards and
has scored a grand total of 31 touchdowns this season. He also has 632 yards receiving and has touchdowns on punt, kickoff and interception returns and has thrown two touchdown passes, including one against Richland last week. McClatcher already has offers from college programs like Washington, Washington State, Utah, UCLA, Boise State and Arizona State. Curran, a 6-foot-2, 185-pound athlete, has rushed for 1,505 yards and 16 touchdowns from the quarterback position and also has 646 yards passing with six TDs. On the defensive side of the ball, Curran led the SPSL with six interceptions. He was voted the SPSL 4A South Division Defensive Back of the Year this week. Curran already has scholarship offers from Air Force, Army, Idaho, San Jose State, Wyoming and Yale. The Eagles have also got a huge boost in their already-potent running attack from senior fullback Eric Ah Fua. The 5-foot-9, 255-pounder has opened up huge holes for McClatcher and Curran by carrying the ball through the middle of the defense.
was last week when the Eagles outscored Skyline, 26-6, during the third and fourth quarters. The Eagles went 57 yards on their first drive of the second half to tie the game at 28-all on McClatcher’s 11-yard touchdown run. Friday, the Eagles’ offense started the second half by driving 57 yards, which culminated in an 11-yard touchdown run by McClatcher to tie the game at 28-28. Curran picked off a Zach Whitby pass on the Bombers’ next possession, which set up the halfback pass from McClatcher to sophomore Tyson Penn. The 51-yard play worked to perfection after Curran pitched the ball to McClatcher, who connected with a wide-open Penn with 5:27 left in the third quarter. It was the only Federal Way pass completion of the night. The Eagles didn’t complete a pass during the win over Skyline. Junior Jared Pulu led the impressive performance in the second half by the Federal Way defense. Pulu finished with two sacks, a forced fumble and also knocked down a pass. Whitby threw four interceptions during the Bombers’ six second-half
possessions. The Eagles made it 4128 on McClatcher’s third touchdown run with 10:59 left in the fourth quarter and Richland never really threatened after that. The semifinal berth will be the first time the Federal Way program has played in the Final Four since 1976. And that’s something that gives the Eagles motivation. “We just talked about it last night,” Meagher said of the 1976 team. “It’s always the first time since 1976. There’s only one thing left to do from 1976 and that winning it all. So we will see.” The win over Richland was the last game at home for Curran and his fellow seniors. The last time the Eagles played on the turf at Federal Way Memorial Stadium came during a blowout loss to Curtis in the final game of the South Puget Sound League South Division regular season. The Eagles finished third in the division behind Graham-Kapowsin and Curtis. “Everyone knows that our last game here, we got beat up by Curtis,” Curran said. “I made it my destiny to get a win here in my last game. I told my guys before
the game that we were going to make history. It’s a great feeling.” “We were never going
to lose on this field,” McClatcher said. “We had the motivation. It’s just a great feeling.”

new school from Pasco, downed Wenatchee Saturday on the road, 56-34. It will be the program’s first-ever trip to the state semifinals. Federal Way got three rushing touchdowns from Chico McClatcher during their win over Richland. The junior also threw a touchdown pass and intercepted two passes for the eighth-ranked Eagles. McClatcher finished with 92 yards on 22 carries, including what proved to be a much-needed insurance touchdown in the fourth. “He’s just a special player,” said longtime head coach John Meagher. “Just a special talent.” Senior quarterback Keenan Curran also had a huge game for Federal Way, finishing with 21 carries for 207 yards and two TDs. “Keenan made some great decisions,” Meagher said. “He was huge for us.” But just like last week when Federal Way upset second-ranked Skyline, the Eagles struggled early. After falling behind 21-7 early and 28-21 at the half, the Eagles dominated. They forced five turnovers, including four interceptions.
“The least important stat in football is the halftime score,” Meagher said. “These kids just battle all the time. They always want to win.” Trailing 14-0 in the first quarter, Federal Way finally got on the scoreboard on a 20-yard run by Curran. After Richland tallied another touchdown, Curran scored for the second time on a 52-yard scramble with McClatcher throwing the decisive block near the goal line to make it 21-14. It was then, that Federal Way’s defense forced Richland to punt for the first time in the game. After the punt, the Eagles knotted the score when McClatcher got outside on a 4-yard sweep with 4:10 left in the half. But it wouldn’t stay that way for long. After a Federal Way punt gave the Bombers possession inside the Eagles’ territory, Richland scored on a 14-yard run with just 14.7 seconds left in the first half to take a 28-21 lead into the locker room. “Coach just told us to keep playing,” Ah Fua said of Meagher’s halftime speech. “We just needed to do a better job.” The second half was all Federal Way, just like it

of King County to preserve and maintain their roads and make related transportation improvements,” according to the county. As temporary funding measures begin to expire in the coming year, the county indicates it’s critical for King County to obtain this “local option” and to seek voter approval in 2014. According to the county, if this particular option is not forthcoming from Olympia, “existing state law does allow the Metropolitan King County Council to enact an ordinance creating a transportation benefit district with specific revenue authorities, including sales taxes and a flat annual vehicle fee.” King County Councilmember Larry Phillips said time is running out, and the region deserves the right to vote on whether to accept drastic transit cuts. Phillips also chairs the the council’s Transportation, Economy and Environment Committee. “Putting this decision in front of voters in time to save their transit system,
[ bullying from page 1 ] others around them who witness the aggression,” Ulmer said. “It affects everyone and can cause attendance issues, is a distraction, creates stress and anxiety and makes you feel alone.” Houchins tackled the problem following her own experiences with bullying in her short life. A number of issues in her life have made her a target of bullying, among them her extended absences from school due to her battles with cancer, which meant she got held back a grade. In an earlier interview with The Mirror, Houchins noted that her diminutive size and her non-traditional family life made her a target of bullies as well. For now, Houchins is extremely happy the WSBE adopted her resolution. “As they voted on my resolution, I was like ‘Oh my gosh, I can’t believe I just did this!’ Houchins wrote in an email to The Mirror. “I think starting this at a young age will prepare me for things when I get older and not a lot of kids can say they made a state law. I’m one of the few that can and it is really important to me.” She added: “I’m looking forward to my next achievement and how big it will be. I was the kid who overcame cancer and now I can move
with or without state legislative action, is the right thing to do,” he said in a news release. If the transportation benefit district option is exercised, the revenues generated would be distributed to Metro Transit for bus service, and to funding roads and transportation needs to cities and the unincorporated parts of King County. One positive development toward solving the funding problem is a tentative agreement reached between the county and the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 587. The ATU represents Metro bus operators, mechanics and various other jobs associated with the transit agency. According to the county, the agreement could “preserve jobs and produce millions of dollars in savings for Metro Transit.” “Local 587 recognizes Metro is in the midst of an unprecedented funding crisis,” said ATU president Paul Bechtel. “This is an agreement we feel we can take to our membership —
past that and say I’ve done something else.” Houchins’ mother, Julie Smith, said she’s incredibly proud of her daughter for standing up and changing things for the better. “As Kajmere’s mother, I am beyond proud. I wasn’t sure if she understood how big of an accomplishment it was so we talked about it,” Smith wrote in an email to The Mirror. “I smiled so much my face hurt and I teared up as I tried to take pictures and seeing the resolution on the screen was beautiful. It was real. Everyone was so excited for her and the teens who wrote the official resolution kept it as true to what she asked for as possible.” Houchins’ contribution to the anti-bullying effort can be found in the Revised Code of Washington 28A.300.285. The RCW states that a district’s antibullying “policy and procedure should be adopted or amended through a process that includes representation of parents or guardians, school employees, volunteers, students, administrators and community representatives.”

the work of negotiators on both sides.” According to the county, the proposed agreement would save Metro between $8.4 million and $12.7 million over the life of the contract, or about 40,000 of the 600,000 hours of bus service that would have to be cut in the absence of stable funding. This will be accomplished by a wage freeze in the first year of the contract, followed by a 2 percent wage increase in the second and
third years of the contract. There’s also the possibility of a 1.67 percent wage increase in the third year of the contract, contingent upon Metro’s ability to avoid a deep service loss. ATU is expected to vote on the agreement in December. According to the county, Metro is facing “unprecedented” cuts in its 40-year history if that stable funding solution is not found. The cuts would roll back service to 1997 levels, “despite the fact the county has grown 22 percent with 360,000 more people.” Accordingly, the transit agency should be growing by 15 percent instead of shrinking. Metro saw
its second-highest ever amount of average weekday rides last month, with 412,000 rides daily. Metro is also nearing its annual record for ridership of 119 million riders. That record was set in 2008. The transit service estimates it needs approximately $75 million in additional funding to maintain current service levels.
