NEEDLE BRIGADE MARCHES ON BY LINDA BALL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Walking into Peggy Petty’s Issaquah basement on a Tuesday morning, you feel like you’ve entered a happy version of a sweat shop. Up to a dozen women might be there, cutting, stretching, sewing and ironing, creating soft, lovely quilts and other items for the less fortunate. They call themselves the Needle Brigade. Most of them met swimming at Julius Boehm Pool. Petty said they sort of inherited the project, but you can tell they love what they’re doing. These foot soldiers of fabric create quilts, nightgowns for children, little hats for premature babies, hats for cancer patients and tablecloths for the Elks club for their banquets and free senior dinner each Christmas. “If someone needs help, they call,” Petty said. The group is set up as a 501c3 nonprofit. Most of the fabric they use is donated, except for fleece, which they use to back some of the quilts. The women keep their eyes open for coupons from Joann Fabric, and they are always open for donations of sewing items or fabric. Nothing goes to waste. Any scraps of mate-

rial they have leftover go to a lady in Centralia who makes pillows. Most of the quilts and baby items are for Eastside Baby Corner, but the preemie hats go to Children’s Hospital in Seattle and the cancer hats are for Overlake Hospital and Group Health. They also make wheelchair bags for Providence Marianwood in Issaquah. The personalities and stories of each of these women are unique and engaging. Eloise Rouse is the oldest one in the group — she’ll be 98 in August. She lives in her own apartment at Providence Point, does her own housework, swims and plays bridge every day. She jets around in her Smart Car which she loves. “I think a lot of it is attitude,” Rouse said. Rouse has four daughters, 15 grandchildren, 32 great grandchildren and six greatgreat grandchildren. And she keeps track of them all. Renate Bowerbank is the engineer in residence. Bowerbank is a retired vice-president of engineering who spent over 30 years as a top-level executive in high-tech. New to the group, she didn’t know how to sew, but she does know how to mend. With her business SEE BRIGADE, 10
As their neighbors did last week, the Issaquah City Council unanimously approved the interlocal agreement regarding the Klahanie Potential Annexation Area, at its April 21 meeting. This opens the door for Sammamish to amend its comprehensive plan to include the Klahanie PAA. Issaquah must take all necessary steps to amend its comp plan to remove Klahanie. As part of an agreement between the two cities about Klahanie, Sammamish agreed to support Issaquah’s effort to get an Urban Center designation from the Puget Sound Regional Council. Also, Sammamish has agreed not to impose or accept any retail sales tax credit from the state and will take immediate steps to fund improvements to Issaquah-Fall City Road if it annexes the Klahanie PAA. Sammamish will place $3 million in a separate transportation account for the road within one year of annexation of the Klahanie PAA. Finally, Sammamish will reimburse Issaquah $30,000 for full use of it annexation study done by Tom Nesbitt, of Nesbitt Planning and Management, Inc. “This is a major milestone for Klahanie,” said Issaquah City Councilmember Tola Marts. The council agreed that support from Sammamish for the CIP is powerful as are improvements to Issaquah-Fall City Road.

Eastlake Spanish students spend spring break in Cuba nature reserve in the mountains, and visiting the first privately owned bookstore. For junior Rebekah Horne, the trip was a once in a lifetime opportunity. “You can’t go to Cuba without an educational license, so when the opportunity to go where so few Americans have been before came up, I took it,” she said.
BY KELLY MONTGOMERY ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Earlier this month, 11 Eastlake High School students traveled to Cuba to expand their Spanish skills and gain some global cultural insight. “Going to Cuba was a lot like time traveling, everything there has history,” said Carmen Callahan, an Eastlake junior. “Learning more about Cuban history was really fascinating, especially because I didn’t know much about Cuba before the trip.” Sophomore Morgan Pearl said she went on the school-sponsored trip to the Dominican Republic last year, but she wasn’t sure she wanted to go to Cuba. “I knew it was really safe,” Morgan said. “But I wasn’t sure if it was the right trip for me. My parents put a lot of pressure on me to go because they thought it was a great opportunity. They said, ‘When will you ever be able to go to Cuba again?’” Morgan’s sister, Madison, a senior, also took the trip. “I went to the Dominican Republic last spring break with Ms. Egashira and had an amazing time. So when I heard about Cuba, I knew
Morgan and Madison said that many people had concerns about them going to Cuba, asking how they were able to travel there with the U.S. embargo. What many don’t know, is that people can in fact travel to Cuba if it is for academic, cultural or athletic reasons. “People think it’s more dangerous than it really is,”
Madison said. “I think a lot of people don’t realize how much the Cubans want to know what the United States is like. They’re honestly some of the friendliest people I have ever met, so I think it’s sad that so many people have such skewed views of Cuba. I think Cuba SEE CUBA, 16

I had to go,” Madison said. “Not many people get this opportunity, so I thought I should take it.” Alicia Egashira has been at Eastlake for 13 years, teaching both Spanish and French. Cuba was her eighth trip with Eastlake students, having been to Costa Rica, Peru, Europe, Guatemala and Belize, Argentina and Uruguay, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands and the Dominican Republic before. “Being on an educational visa was difficult because of the restrictions we had in terms of where we could go and who we could interact
with, but not in a bad way. Just different,” Egashira said. “I went to Cuba about 10 years ago, but it was a different experience because I was able to travel freely.” Egashira said that they stayed at Hotel Comodoro in Havana, where they spent the majority of their time. However they also traveled to Las Terrazas and Vinales. Some of their major activities included visiting Jose Fuster’s house, one of Cuba’s most famous artists, visiting historical Cuban caves and spelunking, going to Las Terrazas, a small community and

Commission picks location for new skate park
BY LINDA BALL
ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
The Issaquah City Council got a number of “thumbs up” for the location of a new skate park from residents, including kids, Monday night. As one youngster named Levi noted, Top Pot doughnuts is only a block away, so how can that be bad?
A citizen’s advisory committee considered seven sites, finally settling on one in Tibbets Valley Park because of its openness and proximity to the Issaquah Transit Center. In addition, there is a buffer between the site and Newport Way. Also, parking is abundant in an adjacent lot that also serves people using the ball fields.
Comparisons to the skate park in Sammamish, which is well-lit and heavily used given its safe and family-friendly location by Sammamish City Hall and the library, were brought up more than once at public meetings in Issaquah. In contrast, Issaquah’s current skate park is rarely used for skating, but more for illegal activities since
Jack Walsh testifies at the April 21 City Council meeting that the Tibbets Valley Park location is a good choice for the new skate park. “It’s a highly public place and a lot of people will go there,” he said. LINDA BALL/Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter
it’s hidden away from plain sight. The new skate park will be 8,000 to 10,000 square-feet, much larger than the existing park off of the Rainier Trail by the Issaquah Community Center which is only 5,600 square-feet. Last year the city ap-
The new skate park will be constructed in this grassy corner as you enter Tibbets Valley Park off of Newport Way. It is well lit and there’s plenty of parking. LINDA BALL, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter proved $350,000 in the 2014 budget to build a new skate park and demolish the old one. Brian Bernsten with Issaquah Parks and Recreation said the old park won’t be demolished until the new one is built. Funding will come from $150,000 of real estate excise taxes and $200,000 from the park mitigation
fund. The location will be reviewed by the council services and safety committee May 1, before returning to full council May 19 for final approval. Next steps after that will be the design phase. Linda Ball: 425-391-0363; lball@ issaquahreporter.com

Parks department looks at a different method to upgrade pool BY LINDA BALL ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER
Half of the $10 million park bond passed by voters in November is set aside to restore the aging Julius Boehm Pool in Issaquah. But instead of the customary design, bid, build methodology, the City Council approved an interagency agreement with the Washington State Department of Enterprise Services to renovate the pool under a performance contract, at the April 21 regular meeting. Under the agreement, DES furnishes the personnel and services to do the work. The department has 13 contractors they work with said Todd Flynn, an engineer with DES who will be the project manager. Parks Manager Ric Patterson said the city will save money on staff time to review all the requests for
qualification — 2,500 pages — that DES has already reviewed. He wouldn’t throw out a specific number, but Flynn said the savings is 20-25 percent. The majority of the savings comes in energy performance, Flynn said. Windows, insulation values, heat recovery components, operational changes and water savings are just a few of the systems the DES will examine. Flynn said typically they do retrofits, not new construction, with the goal of energy savings. DES has done a pool before — Julius Boehm is over 40-yearsold. “Hopefully we’re here to provide oversight — be the advocate for the city,” Flynn said. Patterson said the next step for the city is to interview the 13 contractors that have been vetted by DES. If one is selected, the contractor must then perform an investment-grade audit where measurements are taken
to determine how much energy the pool is using. That will give the contractor and engineers a guideline to seek new technology to make the facility more energy efficient. If the city is not happy with any of the contractors, they still must pay for the audit, and continue to a design, bid, build scenario. The $5 million budget is controlled by the city and includes a contingency fund. “Obviously,” Flynn said, “DES intends to stay within the budget.” The program has been around since 1986, but it was called General Administration, which incorporated several agencies. The city also gets a performance guaranty — no surprises. Change orders would be limited to items such as the new pool liner and deck surfacing. Linda Ball: 425-391-0363; lball@issaquahreporter.com
Video game tournament to benefit Bellevue College Bellevue College will hold the third-annual Autism Acceptance Video Game Tournament on April 26 to raise acceptance for autistic individuals and funds for its Autism Spectrum Navigators program. The program helps autistic students access college life, including academics, student services and more. Admission is free and for $10 players can enter and compete in an all-ages Nintendo Wii Mario Kart tournament, with prizes handed out to the top competitors. All video game equipment will be provided. In addition to the tournament, the event will feature several seminars designed to educate parents and others in the community about autism: • Make Yourself Shine in the Workplace; Dr. Nancie Payne, Payne & Associates. • Transition Starts Now: Preparing Your Student for College and Beyond.
• Ben Wahl, MSW, Aspiring Youth. • Autism Spectrum Navigators Student Panel. Other attractions include: • An Xbox Kinect Kids Play Room. • A quiet room, provided by FEAT of Washington. • Board game table. • A silent auction with a variety of items, including a Stratocaster acoustic guitar, a “Salmon” basket which includes a $100 gift card to Anthony’s Restaurants, a knitting basket which includes a two-hour knitting class for four people, and more. Bellevue College created the Autism Spectrum Navigators program in 2011. Students in the program have access to a network of support, including meetings each week with trained peer mentors and participation in group classes and discussions. This year’s tournament is hosted in partnership with
Autism Day Washington, which will hold a Q & A session with Perspectives on Autism to answer respectful questions and talk about what living with autism means. The event will be held after the tournament from 4-8 p.m. at Eastside Catholic School in Sammamish. “So many young people are attending college with an autism spectrum condition, and we need programs like this that can help students access college and campus services so they can have the bright future they deserve,” said Sara Gardner, the program’s manager, who has been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder herself. The event at BC will be held in the college cafeteria (C Building) on the main campus of Bellevue College, 3000 Landerholm Circle S.E.

Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District receives clean audit The Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District received a clean audit report from the state auditor’s office at the April 14 board of commissioners meeting. In recognizing the district’s sound fiscal management, the state representative highlighted the district’s history of clean audits and extended the option to SPWSD to audit on a less frequent basis, due to confidence in its fiscal practices. The state auditor’s office performs a financial and accountability audit on an annual basis.
In reporting to the board, the state representative noted that the district has had no findings in over 10 years. The district has an annual budget of $29 million, a staff of 49 and is a regional provider of water and sewer service to nearly 55,000 residents of areas of the cities of Sammamish and Issaquah and unincorporated King County. The Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District provides water services to over 17,000 customers and sewer services to nearly 11,000 customers.

THE ELECTION School kids and bus riders take it on the chin
A
pparently good schools aren’t enough in the Lake Washington School District. Too many voters want them cheap as well. While a slight majority of voters approved a $404 million bond for new schools Tuesday, the district needed a 60 percent “yes” vote for the measure to pass. The defeat could haunt the district for years. The district, which includes the Sammamish area, expects to see an additional 4,000 students in the next eight years. That’s not surprising. The state just this week honored 25 of its schools with achievement awards. Of them, 17 were singled out for overall excellence. The bond issue would have built three elementary schools, a middle school and replace and expand Juanita High School. Money also would have gone to build a school focused on science, technology, engineering and math. Bond opponents want the district to build more affordable schools. We’ll probably see that happen shortly. They’re called portables.
T
he defeat of King County Proposition No. 1, to help pay for transit as well as road maintenance and improvements, puts pressure on the Legislature to deal with this issue on a statewide basis. That’s where it belonged from the start. But we can’t blame the county from moving ahead on its own. After all, the Legislature had a chance to do this at the start of the year, but ducked its responsibility. Sadly, that’s not surprising, given that most lawmakers will be up for election this fall and don’t want to be on the record as voting for more taxes. Unfortunately, people here will take the hit for the Legislature’s inaction. Bus service will be reduced, some routes will be discontinued, more buses will be standing room only during rush hours and some people – bus drivers – likely will work fewer hours or, worse, lose their jobs. Metro ridership has been climbing over the past few years, but obviously most voters aren’t bus riders. And for them, why pay more taxes when they’ve already got comfortable seats and a great sound system in their car to see them through what likely will be a more congested commute. – Craig Groshart, Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter ISSAQUAH | SAMMAMISH

Lessons learned at Oso disaster
T
hat venerable adage ‘It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it’ came to mind Tuesday as President Barack Obama departed the Oso firehouse. It was Obama’s subtle acknowledgement that the emergency response to the deadly mudslide did not get carried out in letter-perfect fashion. Families and neighbors of the deceased and missing encountered frustrations with first responders during those first days after the earth moved. “Some terrific lessons were learned in the midst of very hard times during this Jerry Cornfield process, because almost uniquely, we had not just coordination between state, local and federal officials, but also coordination between volunteers and those officials,” Obama said to the crowd at the firehouse. “And I know that it required some improvisation and some kinks getting worked out, but it was important for the family members themselves and the community themselves to be hands-on and participate in this process — particularly a community like this one where folks are
?
Question of the week:
hearty and know how to do things, and take great pride in being self-reliant. “It was important that they weren’t just bystanders in this process, they were involved every step of the way,” he said. Rep. Elizabeth Scott, R-Monroe might feel validated by his words; she made much the same point a month ago. She expressed particular pique with the decisions to bar Darrington residents from joining the search for victims and restoring a private road for emergency vehicles to access the site – prohibitions the hometown folks promptly ignored and officialdom eventually welcomed. Those were probably the kind of “kinks getting worked out” that Obama had in mind. There would be a time to discuss what didn’t go right and what to do about it, she said. When that time comes — if Scott picked up any tips from Obama — it will be to make sure what she says gets the attention, rather than how she says it.

Ballot defeat means cuts coming to Metro BY BRANDON MACZ BELLEVUE REPORTER
King County Metro will begin phasing in cuts and reductions to nearly 200 bus routes in September following the defeat of Proposition 1 in Tuesday’s special election, affecting 28 of 35 routes in Bellevue. Prop 1 was failing by 55 percent as of press time for the Reporter on Wednesday night with 412,248 ballots counted or 35 percent turnout. Based on a March revenue forecast the proposed cuts and changes to King County Metro routes changed slightly from 74 to 72 routes lost. That’s roughly 34 percent of the Metro system. The 107 routes proposed to be reduced or changed dropped to 84. Of those reductions, 48 percent will occur during peak transit hours. “As far as Plan B, it’s still the same as it was before the election,” said Chad Lewis, spokesman for the King County Executive’s Office. Prop 1 would have allowed for a recently formed King County Transportation Benefit District to implement a one-tenth of a cent sales tax and a $60 car-tab fee. Low-income county
residents would get a $20 rebate. Prop 1 was anticipated to generate $130 million in revenue, with 40 percent going to local road and transportation projects. Lewis said there is no current plan to run another ballot measure in the future. Metro service changes occur three times each year, meaning the first cuts, reductions and route changes will start in September, said Rochelle Ogershok with the King County Department of Transportation. Three more rounds of cuts and changes will occur in February, June and September of 2015. Ogershok said the staffing cuts that will come with the cuts and reduced service have not yet been determined. “If you have less service, you have less buses on the street clearly,” she said. Without funding, the transportation benefit district can remain dormant. There has been no indication from King County Council that it wants to dissolve the district.

Two students named Merit Scholars Two area students have been named winners in the 59th annual National Merit Scholarship Program and will receive scholarships from corporate sponsors. Corporate sponsors provide National Merit Scholarships for finalists who are children of their employees, who are residents of communities
the company serves or who plan to pursue college majors or careers the sponsor wishes to encourage. The winners are: Audrey R. Storm of Issaquah received a Varian Medical Systems scholarship. She attends Issaquah High School. The possible career field is undecided. Brandon S. McNerney of Sammamish has received a Boeing scholarship. She attends the International Community School in Kirkland. The possible career field is civil engineering.
Pine Lake Middle school hosted their HEROpalooza event on Wednesday, April 23, to honor students who have volunteered at least 10 hours toward charities in Sammamish, Issaquah and surrounding communities. More than 300 students participated in the program. In addition, more than 3,000 volunteer hours were provided. Students volunteered at the Issaquah Food Bank, provided food and warm blankets to Tent City, pulled weeds for Mountain To Sound Greenway, held
bake sales to raise money for Kids With Cancer, collected dog food for the Humane Society and performed many other services for those in need. For the event, each student prepared a presentation board showing where and how they volunteered including photos. They were displayed in science fair style. “We are so proud of our students,” said Jill Knutson, a humanities teacher at Pine Lake Middle School. “They are real heroes.”

The Eastside’s beloved orchestra returns from the dead Bellevue Philharmonic now Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra BY GABRIELLE NOMURA SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
When describing the dramatic comeback of the Eastside’s only professional orchestra, Bellevue Philharmonic, Michael Miropolsky doesn't mince words: “You simply don’t see orchestras come back from the dead; this hardly ever happens in the music business,” said
Miropolsky, an accomplished violinist and conductor. Since 1967, Bellevue Philharmonic had been connecting audience members with classical repertoire and professional, high-caliber musicianship. Many of the artists also played for Pacific Northwest Ballet, Seattle Symphony and other regional groups. When the economic downturn forced Bellevue Philharmonic to close its doors in 2011, Eastsiders thought they had lost one of their community jewels. “The Eastside has its own cultural identity. Every cultural center needs its own orchestra without having to cross over a bridge,” said Martha Garrett, a violinist who got involved SEE SYMPHONY, 17

background, she streamlined the system to make washcloths and bibs from recycled material. Myrtle Strader doesn’t really sew either, but she is a self-proclaimed expert ironer. It’s important that all the seams be pressed down, and with her stateof-the-art iron, which she was happy to demonstrate, she cranks out the work. Once the iron stops moving, it automatically lifts itself up off the surface. Who knew? Elke Lott is also fairly new to the group. She was working on a serger, which finishes the cut edges of the fabric and seams at the same time. They use the
serger on nightgowns, wash cloths, bibs and receiving blankets. She is retired from Farmer’s Insurance after 30 years, and really enjoys helping out with the brigade. Petty said Lott and Rouse are also excellent knitters, but they mainly knit for their own families. The basement workshop used to be a home office, Petty said, but the Needle Brigade has worked out of there now for about four years. Others in the group are Pina Mull (whose brother named the group), Judy Kenyon, Grace Elder, Betty Roberson, Lorella Haakenson, Joan Abel and Shirley Small. If you would like to donate sewing goods, or even volunteer, call Petty at 425-392-8173. Linda Ball: 425-391-0363; lball@issaquahreporter.com

New clinic to hold open house (L to R) Back: Carmen Malsbury, Bob Ittes, Melodee Bergsma, Jaclyn Hess. Front: Charlotte Jacobs, Julie Greenwood, Dorothy Mann.
The Newest Bank In Town Has A Very Familiar Look To It. When Bob Ittes was asked to open a Whidbey Island Bank branch in Issaquah, he knew exactly who should help him run it. He’d worked closely with Carmen, Charlotte and Julie for decades. Melodee, Jaclyn and Dorothy were also obvious choices to round out the crew, as each had extensive experience with other banks in Issaquah and the surrounding communities. What made it an even better fit for the bank and the new staff was the common belief that a successful community bank is based on the support of local people and businesses. With everyone back together again, this team is poised to become the bank for the eastside of the eastside. So if you’ve ever had the pleasure of working with any one of these folks, you might want to stop by and get caught up. Because in today’s ever-changing world, a familiar face can make all the difference.
Overlake Medical Clinics Issaquah will hold an open house April 26. The event will include an interactive tour of the clinic and enjoy a free latte or smoothie. Free BMI and blood pressure screenings also will be available at the event and a special giveaway is planned for the first 250 guests. Radio Disney will be onsite for family-friendly entertainment, games and giveaways. The open house will be from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 5708 E. Lake Sammamish Parkway S.E.

Funny Girl next up at Village Theatre Village Theatre will present Funny Girl next month and for scenic artist Julia Franz, what's old will be new again. Franz will celebrate her 100th production with Village Theatre, back where she started, so to speak. Her first production was also Funny Girl, and was also directed by Steve Tomkins and designed by Bill Forrester, back in the spring of 1994. At a time when many theatre companies are converting to printed set drops, Franz remains dedicated to keeping the lost art of handpainted sets, drops and floors alive. "Hand-painting allows for more control and flexibility in our work," Franz said. "What we do is an art form and with the human hand we can achieve a visual aspect that a computer printout simply can’t.” Singing the title role of Fanny Brice will be Sarah Rose Davis of Bellevue. Fanny Brice is Funny Girl; the irrepressible comedienne, Vaudeville star, and one of the most celebrated entertainers of her time. This semiautobiographical musical is based on Fanny’s life, career, and stormy relationship with professional gambler and con artist Nick Arnstein. It includes favorite tunes “Don’t

With each sip of a Slide Ridge Estates wine, you know it was made with hard work and a true passion for the purity of each grape. Named after the great landslide that overlooks it, and procured as an underdeveloped vineyard, The Thomas Family pioneered innovative approaches of care by blending New and Old world growing techniques. Like the wild Mustang, it is with bold spirit that we proudly bring you handcrafted, homestead wines.

Eagles face Bellevue with top spot in conference at stake
Sports Roundup
News and notes in sports and recreation
Skyline out front in Crown
BY JOSH SUMAN
JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
When Issaquah meets Bellevue Friday in a matchup of two of the conference’s top three teams, it is unlikely either will see many similarities. The Eagles feature a balanced offensive attack, with 10 players having scored a goal and six with double-digit points on the season. By contrast, coach John Baumann’s Wolverines have relied on a pair of Division I bound seniors in Hank Bethke and Eric Haehl to carry the load offensively. The duo have combined for nearly half of the team’s scoring output during league play, with Bethke posting a conference best 48 goals in 13 games on the year. Defensively, the story is also one of contrasting styles. Senior goalkeeper Cole Cansler and the Bellevue defense have not allowed more than nine goals in a game while building a 12-1 record, with the only loss coming by a single goal in the Northwest Invitational. The Wolverines have been even tougher against in-state foes, surrendering only three goals per contest against Washington competition. “They are very strong defensively,” Fortier said of the Wolverines. “I envision a low scoring game.” For Fortier, the defense is still a work in progress. “We’re definitely getting better,” he said, adding communication on that end of the field has been a key for a group with several new starters. “We’re too timid, and there isn’t that quarterback on the defensive end.”
Issaquah sophomore Ryan Egland has been part of the attack this season. MICHAEL JARDINE, U.S. Lacrosse Washington
KingCo Lacrosse Showdown Where: Bellevue High School, 10416 Wolverine Way When: Friday, April 25, 8 p.m. What’s at stake: An unbeaten record in conference play, and the inside track to a top seed in the playoffs The Eagles have more than held their own against instate competition, as no Washington prep squad has scored more than five goals in a game. But Fortier knows games against fellow conference frontrunners Bellevue and Mercer Island, as well a potential run through the playoffs, will require a more polished effort. “Everyone is aware of it,” Fortier said of his team’s need to clamp down. “It is just experience, and maturing.”
Only a week remains in the 4A KingCo baseball season, and Skyline finds itself at the top of the Crown Division with three games remaining. The Spartans fell 6-2 to Redmond April 18, and met Garfield Thursday after the Reporter’s deadline looking for its first win in three games. The final week of the season will give Skyline a pair of opportunities to lock up a division championship and top seed in the conference tournament, with games against Issaquah and Newport. The Knights and Eagles met Wednesday, and are in the mix with Roosevelt in a tightly packed division race.
Eastlake after playoff spot The Wolves lost 5-2 to Issaquah Monday, and have a week off before getting back into Crest play to finish the regular season. Eastlake meets first place Bothell and last place Woodinville next week, with the Falcons trailing by only one game for the fourth and final KingCo tournament spot.
Crusaders hoping for strong finish Eastside Catholic beat Nathan Hale 4-2 Monday to pick up its fifth Metro win of the season, and faces Bishop Blanchet twice to finish the week looking to gain ground on Seattle Prep and Bainbridge in the Mountain Division.
Skyline softball in solid position Skyline is one of only two teams in the division with a winning record in conference play, along with Newport, and met Redmond Wednesday after handing Garfield a 27-2 defeat Monday. The Spartans host Roosevelt Friday at 4 p.m.

Issaquah baseball rivalry intensified by father-son ties BY JOSH SUMAN JSUMAN@BELLEVUEREPORTER.COM
Todd Reese remembers the days as a youngster around the Issaquah baseball program, following head coach and father Rob around the old natural grass diamond, idolizing the purple and gold clad varsity team members. The memories of the family ties to their KingCo championships and a trio of state titles are also fond ones for the longtime skipper of the Eagles, along with a pair of assistants in Steve Sanelli and Fred Caponigro who have known and coached Todd throughout his youth. But rather than suiting up for his father and the Eagles as a player, after doing so as a bat boy for state championship squads, Todd headed to the other side of Newport Way, to Issaquah’s fiercest rivals on the baseball diamond. “I played Thunderbird Little League my whole life, and grew up with these guys,” Todd said of the Bellevue league that feeds Newport High School and draws from the area that borders the Issaquah School District boundary. Rob said the plan was always for his son to attend Newport and remain with his neighborhood classmates and friends, rather than inherit the pressure of being the coach’s son for the Eagles. But during his childhood, as Rob led Issaquah to state championships in 2000, 2004 and 2007, Todd and the rest of the family were a fixture in the stands and on the field. Rob said one of the most vivid memories of his coaching tenure is the program’s most recent title, when he grabbed a young Todd from over the Safeco Field railing and brought him on the field to join the celebration. “I still watch the video of that one sometimes,” he said,

flicted instances when he faces Issaquah. “It’s been really difficult, not being able to see him and not having my wife here,” Rob said. “He has such a great group of friends he grew up with.” Newport coach Brad Files has coached for nearly two decades alongside Rob, Sanelli and Caponigro with Lakeside Recovery’s American Legion program during the summer, and as close family friends has known Todd his entire life. “We’ve been looking forward to having him here, and it has gone by fast,” Files said. “We try to make the most of it every day and enjoy the experience.” The decision has worked out well for Todd, and even better for the Knights during his varsity tenure. He is third on the team in hits and second in RBI. He has been the workhorse of the pitching staff, throwing a team high 34 innings and a third, and posting a 2.04 earned run average. Even with the unenviable task of taking on his own father as the starting pitcher in a Newport win over Issaquah earlier this year, Todd has shined. “It’s probably the most nervous I’ve ever been,” he said of a 5-4 victory where he started on the mound and delivered the game winning base hit. “It felt good to beat them. But there was no gloating, anything like that.” The two met again Wednesday, after the Reporter’s deadline, and could also face off in the KingCo tournament. Todd said the respect between he and his dad, developed through baseball, has been one of the most rewarding parts of his growth in a game he has been around for longer than he can remember. On the day he was born, his father’s Eagles were slated for a non-league game against Kentridge. After staying for the birth, Rob headed to the diamond to catch whatever was left of the early season tilt. Not long after, his wife was released from the hospital and came to the field, starting a connection on the diamond that has helped shape their lives in the years since. “I was in my jeans,” Rob recalled, having passed along head coaching duties to Sanelli for the day. “Tami got out of the hospital and brought Todd. He’s been around Issaquah his whole life.”

is actually as safe as the U.S. I never felt like I was in any kind of danger when I was there.” Horne said it’s hard to pinpoint one part of the trip that stood out as her favorite, but she loved learning about the Cuban culture. “Art and music are so important to the Cuban people, and we saw that everywhere we went – the beautiful mosaic tiles at Casa Fuster, the creative street art all over Havana, the musicians playing ‘Guantanamera’ at every restaurant we ate at…I think what surprised all of us the most was that we all had this idea that everyone in Cuba was going to be really Communist and brainwashed to love Castro, but some of the people that we talked to actually disagreed with some of the government actions and were not afraid to be vocal about it,” Horne said. Colin MacRae, an Eastlake senior, also noted Cuba’s passion for art and music, explaining how it’s so much more prevalent compared to the U.S. MacRae also said that it was much harder to speak Spanish then he had expected because of Cuban’s thick accents. “It was just so completely different from what we’ve learned,” MacRae said. “But it definitely helped us to learn. It was hard.” Callahan said she has studied Spanish for five years, and was surprised at how well the locals spoke English. “Their English was much, much better than my Spanish,” she said. Horne said the Cuba trip was the first time she was able to meet and talk directly with Spanish-speaking locals, using the language skills she has learned in school. “I think that was a really great experience for all of us,” she said. Morgan said the trip opened her eyes to stereotypes, and how you never know the truth about something until you try it or see it for yourself. “I really miss Cuba, and if the embargo is ever lifted, I will definitely go back and see how things change with the U.S. influence,” she said. Egashira said that she hopes her students learned the value of travel and gained an appreciation of other cultures. And most of the students said that they plan to study Spanish in college, with the hopes of studying abroad or traveling. “After taking this trip, I know that I definitely want to study abroad in the future, hopefully in a Spanish-speaking country so that I can really immerse myself in the language and learn to speak fluently,” Horne said. “I would tell anybody who has the opportunity to travel to another country for any kind of educational purpose to take the chance and do it. It might just turn out to be one of the best experiences of your life.” Kelly Montgomery: 425-391-0363; kmontgomery@issaquahreporter.com

with the group in the early 2000s. At the time, she said, local musicians viewed the Philharmonic as “the next big thing.” From the passion of musicians like Garrett and Miropolsky, and the persistence of dedicated music lovers and community members, miracles can happen. Almost three years after implosion, the group did indeed “come back from the dead” and with a spiffy new name, Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra. Led by Miropolsky, artistic director, the musicians handle both performing and administrative responsibilities with a new artist-driven model. While this means many long hours of essentially volunteer-work for some involved, especially in the initial stages, Miropolsky said the structure is much better fit. “The managers know the business from the insideout,” he said. The group gave its inaugural performance this March at Lake Washington High School Performing Arts Center, treating roughly 250 people to the works of Strauss, Alfven, Bizet and
WWW.ISSAQUAHREPORTER.COM
Rimsky-Korsakov. “The musicians played with such great energy; that’s what makes the music,” said Miropolsky, who led the group from the podium. “I can’t believe they pulled it off in only three rehearsals.” It felt incredible for Garrett to sit down on stage with her violin and perform once again for many of the people who had made the original orchestra so beloved. She hopes that the company will only continue to grow, adding additional concerts each year. To jump-start that goal, the organization will hold a “Symphony of Gardens” fundraiser event from 9-4 p.m. June 29. Attendees will have the opportunity to tour “all-star” gardens in Medina, Clyde Hall, Hunts Point and Kirkland with live music provided by the orchestra. Tickets are available at www. brownpapertickets.com/ event/604208. Garrett said the musicians are overjoyed to be back, and grateful to all who have stepped forward to support the group in some way. “It’s been overwhelming,” she said. “At our inaugural concert, we were floating on air.” Gabrielle Nomura is a freelance writer. She lives in Seattle.

Eastside Fire and Rescue receives pet oxygen mask donations
Eastside Fire and Rescue has received a donation of 15 oxygen mask kits for pets from Invisible Fence Northwest. The donation is a part of the company’s Project Breathe program, with the goal of equipping every fire station in the United States and Canada with pet oxygen masks. These masks allow firefighters to give oxygen to pets who are suffering from smoke inhalation when they are rescued from fires and can often save pets’ lives. Invisible Fence has donated a total of more than 10,000 pet oxygen masks to fire stations and reports indicate more than 120 pets have been saved by the donated masks so far. Although the number of pets that die in fires is not an official statistic kept by the U.S. Fire Administration, industry, web sites and sources have cited anywhere from 40,000 to 150,000 pets die in fires each year, most succumbing to smoke inhalation. “These masks truly are blessings for the Issaquah area” said Battalion Chief Dave McDaniel. “We’ve seen residents run back into burning homes to save a pet. It’s understandable, but extremely dangerous. These masks will give residents comfort in knowing we can possibly save their pets if they are suffering from smoke inhalation.” The company has set up a website, www.invisiblefence.com/O2, where people or companies can support the effort. For more information about the donated oxygen mask kits to EFR, contact Battalion Chief David McDaniel at McDaniel@esf-r.org. Contact Dannielle Collins with Invisible Fence Northwest at dcollins@invisiblefence.net for information on Project Breathe.
Sammamish makes storm water runoff a community center priority
Large building projects such as the Sammamish Community and Aquatic Center oftentimes produce negative side effects in the storm water runoff. However, as the city of Sammamish prepares to invest $34.5 million in the project, it has stated that a portion of the funds will be used to make the entire site and nearby acreage more absorbent. The center will include a vegetated rain roof that will capture moisture and six acres of nearby land will be reforested as part of a drainage easement. In addition, pervious surfaces will absorb rain and water will be conserved on site, allowing for recycled use. The city said that the reforestation effort will extend to the lower bowl of Sammamish Commons, the spot where Wetland No. 61 serves as the headwaters of Ebright Creek. The trees will aid in holding on to rain before it reaches the ground, and drawing in more of the water through their root systems.
ORCA card to test one-day pass
A new regional transit pass will allow riders to travel by bus, train, streetcar or water taxi all day for one price. The Visitor Day Pass is being piloted by Puget Sound transit agencies and will be available for the next six months. One or more days’ worth of passes can be loaded onto a reusable ORCA smart card. The regional day pass will cost $9 and will provide unlimited trips when the fare is $4 or less. It will , but local residents also can purchase the day pass anywhere ORCA cards are sold. People who do not have an ORCA card can buy a card for a one-time $5 fee. The day pass cannot be used on Washington State Ferries.

Police reports from Issaquah and Sammamish
Sammamish
Issaquah
Stolen plate: A Sammamish resident called police
Freeway louder than music: A noise complaint was reported April 11 at a party in the 2400 Block of Newport Way NW. A neighbor said the music was loud. The host was advised of the complaint and said he’d turn the music down. The police report said the music wasn’t as loud as the freeway noise. Oops: A caller to IPD reported that someone threw a bottle and some rocks at him and his brother on April 12 while they were in the parking lot adjacent to the Brewhouse and the old Issaquah Press building in the 100 Block of Sunset Way. The subject who threw the bottle wasn’t found, but it turned out the brother was wanted on a KCSO warrant. The 22-year-old Burien male was taken into custody. Wrong car: On April 12, in the 100 Block of Sunset Way, an intoxicated subject waiting for a taxi got into a citizens car and waited in the passenger seat. He stated he thought it was a taxi. A real taxi took him to his residence in Seattle. Vehicle prowl: An iPod, backpack, school books, and a Nintendo Game Boy were stolen from a 2008 Subaru in the 22400 Block of Southeast 48th Place on April 14. The total loss was $800. Arrest made at transient camp: An officer checked on a transient camp in approximately the 4700 Block of East Lake Sammamish Parkway. He had sent the property owners a letter the previous week advising of the problem and asking them to remove the camp. He went to check on progress of clean up, if any, on April 15. While on the property, he contacted a subject who had a DOC escape warrant for assault three. The 47-year-old male was arrested. Flying pipe: On April 16 an officer was dispatched to contact the reporting party via phone regarding a pipe hitting her windshield. The officer contacted her and she said she was driving downhill on Northwest Talus Drive near Shy Bear Way Northwest. She said while driving downhill an unknown object fell out of the sky and struck her windshield on the passenger side bottom.
on April 6 reporting his license plate had been stolen within the last week. The victim said that he saw his license plate on his car when he washed it on March 27, and only drove his car on April 3 when he went to dinner at Chuckaways in Bellevue. He said that everywhere he parked was either in a covered spot or close to entrances, and doesn’t know his license plate was stolen. No suspect has been located at this time. Dog fight: At approximately 2:20 p.m on April 9., an officer was dispatched to the Knolls Apartments on Inglewood Hill Road due to a pit bull fight occurring in the parking lot. Three dogs were involved in the brawl. The owners were attempting to break it up and were covered in blood. When the officer arrived, there was only one dog on scene. One of the dogs was inside the owner’s home, with the owner refusing to cooperate, and the other had run off during the fight. The cooperative owner was treated for her bite wounds on the scene, after which the officers helped her look for her dog, a pit bull mix named Doodle. The dog was seen by another officer on NE Inglewood Hill Road, but when the Deputy attempted to get the dog to come to him, it ran into the woods. It is unknown whether the dog has been found. Act your age: A Sammamish citizen reported that a home on 229th Ave N.E. has been the source of a lot of house parties when the parents are away. The weekend of April 12 was no exception, with the neighbor finding beer cans in his yard. An officer arrived on scene, knocked on the door, was rejected by a young man refusing to talk. The other occupants put the blinds down and refused to answer the door. The officer recorded the plates that were at the home and saw a lengthy history with the two young men associated with the home. He attempted to reach the parents, but could not get ahold of them. The officer told the neighbor to call the homeowner’s association to see what action could be taken to reach the parents and let them know about the parties. He also advised the neighbor to call 9-1-1 any time his peace was disturbed. The officer said he will be forwarding the report on to administration to see if follow-up can be done to “prevent the peace from being disturbed and from tying up police personnel by dealing with young men that act the part of young teens.” Suicide attempt: On April 11 an officer was dispatched to a Sammamish home due to a suicide attempt. The resident claimed she had taken 100 Trazadone pills in an attempt to take her life, but had thrown them up. She was weak and lethargic and unable to leave the bed without assistance. She was involunarily commited to the hospital for a mental health evaluation.
Trouble on the trail: On April 17 an officer spoke with a man who was the father of 15-year-old daughter. The father stated that his daughter told him she seen two white males on the Rainer Trail at about 7 a.m. on Monday April 14 who had what appeared to be a gun. She was unable to tell if the gun was a rifle or a handgun.

Friday, April 25, 2014 Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx agr.wa.gov/inspection/WeightsMeasures/Firewoodinformation.aspx
