Schools labeled as failing, but are they? School and state officials sound off against the idea schools aren’t measuring up BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com
Who’s going to flinch first? The state and the US Department of Education are playing a game of chicken that by design puts Washington state students in the middle. A lack of action on Capitol Hill in DC related to updating the Education and Secondary Education Act — its most current iteration is known by the name “No Child Left Behind” — has trickled down to Washington’s school districts, which were required to mail home letters that labeled schools as failing. The label came from the US Department of Education, which revoked Washington state’s waiver from requirements in No Child Left Behind earlier this year, making Washington the first state in the country to lose its waiver. One of the requirements in No Child Left Behind is that schools meet Annual Yearly Progress, or AYP, benchmarks. Among those benchmarks is by 2014 every student pass their state’s standardized tests in reading and math. The ESEA has historically been updated regularly, but has been overdue for a revision for a number of years. That update would replace No Child Left Behind. As the date for refreshed legislation came and went with no action in Congress and the 2014 deadline for meeting AYP approached, the Department of Education granted states waivers on a yearly basis. For the past two years Washington had received such waivers.
This year, however, the state’s waiver was denied because of a Department of Education requirement that students performance on standardized tests be a component in teacher evaluations. In Washington, including that component in evaluations would require a change in state law by the legislature. No change equaled no waiver. Besides mailing home the letters, there are also federally imposed financial ramifications for districts. Schools that receive Title 1 funds — e.g. schools that meet a threshold in the number of students who receive free and reduced lunch and receive federal funds for programs that help economically disadvantaged students in the classroom through additional programming — and are labeled as failing must set aside 20 percent of the Title 1 funds for either private tutors or to transport students to other schools. Additionally, after two years of not meeting AYP, schools enter a series of remedial steps as outlined in NCLB, which can conclude in the reorganization of
Great Horror Campout spooks out a success BY ERIC MANDEL emandel@covingtonreporter.com
The Great Horror Campout may not have reached its lofty attendance goal, but organizers of the event are still planning a return trip to Black Diamond in the future. The Black Diamond Police Department estimated 500 people attended the inaugural two-night event in Black Diamond, held July 25-26. A spokesperson for Ten Thirty One Productions said that number was “hugely incorrect” but that the company does not release attendance figures. No matter the exact number of bodies, the ominous, wooded environment was unlike any other on their tour.
a school.
DISTRICTS MAKE A POINT OF THEIR OWN Last week the superintendents of 28 school districts in the Puget Sound Educational Service District, which provides additional resources and support for school districts and includes Kent and Tahoma, signed a letter that went home to parents explaining the situation. The letter also took a stance against the “failing” label, calling it “repressive” and “punitive.” In addition, PSESD held a press conference last week with four of the superintendents and one of Kent’s elementary principals to discuss the impact of schools being labeled as failing. “It’s clear, the evidence is overwhelming that schools are not failing,” Kent School District Superintendent Edward Lee Vargas said at the press conference. “We want to be held accountable and now it’s time to hold accountability accountable.” Vargas went on to call the law antiquated [ more SCHOOLS page 7 ]
“The fan passion levels for the Great Horror Campout have surpassed our wildest expectations and frankly been shocking,” said Melissa Carbone, CEO and president of Ten Thirty One Productions, in an email. “The Seattle (Black Diamond) location was the favored location on the tour. We absolutely will be back next year.” Organizers of the Great Horror Campout describes it as a “choose your own adventure” overnight. The 12-hour interactive camping experience targets 18-34 year olds. Ten Thirty One Productions, out of Los Angeles, created the event in 2013 and planned tours of major cities in California and Texas this summer. The event consists of cages, kidnappers, voodoo rituals, “blood tag,” horror movies and the “Hell Hunt” interactive challenge. Electronic billboards promoted the event in

Police chief candidates interview for opening BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com
The city of Maple Valley is continuing to move toward selecting its next police chief. Two candidates, Capt. Scott Somers and Capt. DJ Nesel, both from within the King County Sheriff ’s Office, were interviewed by the City Council Monday night in MAPLE a special council VALLEY meeting and by City Manager David Johnston on Tuesday. Both were also previously interviewed by a panel of senior city staff members and by a panel of current members of the Maple Valley Police Department. The top post in the department opened earlier this summer when Sheriff John Urquhart decided to shuffle staff within the Sheriff ’s Office, including reassigning [ more CHIEF page 9 ]

William Kombol, manager of Palmer Coking Coal, had no complaints about the event. “I think it went well,” he said. “They picked up every gum wrapper, did a good job, paid their rent on time.” Kombol said when he informed Ten Thirty One of some litter he found on the property after initial cleanup of the event, they immediately sent workers from Portland to finish the job. “Most people would say, ‘why don’t you just pick it up [ more CAMPOUT page 6 ]

talking to about a dozen people. “Most of them are not suspects, but we need clarification and we’re going to do our due diligence by talking to all of them,” Urquhart said. “So it’s an ongoing process.”
NEW CHIEF DEPUTY Pugel, the Seattle Police Department’s former interim chief of police, takes over for Anne Kirkpatrick, who retired from the sheriff ’s office in June. Pugel, 55, spent 31 years in law enforcement before briefly retiring in January. During the press conference, Urquhart said Pugel will add experience and a fresh perspective to the position. “I could not be happier,” Urquhart said. “I could not have more confidence in Jim and he’s a great choice.” Pugel will begin his role on Sept. 1 and earn around $173,000, Urquhart said. Pugel said he had a “good break” during his

temporary retirement but was excited to be back in law enforcement. He said a main goal is improving relations and trust with the public. Urquhart said no other candidates were interviewed and dismissed a question of whether members of the sheriff ’s office would be upset about being passed over by someone from the outside. “I think my people are better than that,” Urquhart said. “I think they understand that what’s best for the organization is what’s best for them.”
LEAD PROGRAM Urquhart said Pugel will help as the county continues working on the Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion program, which is described as “a pre-booking diversion pilot program developed with the community to address low-level drug and prostitution crimes in the Belltown neighborhood in Seattle and the Skyway
area of unincorporated King County.” The program allows officers to redirect low-level offenders to communitybased services instead of jail. Urquhart said, if done correctly, the LEAD program will save the county a “tremendous amount” of money. “Low level drug crimes have incarcerated an entire generation of young people, and mostly people of color,” he said. “We’ve got to figure out another way to do that. I said during the campaign, I-502 is one way to do that, the LEAD program is another way to do that and I’m sure there are other things we can do as well as we go forward. We have to be open to that.” “We cannot arrest our ways out of society’s problems, and I’ve heard Jim say that as well,” Urquhart continued. “I’m not sure which one of us coined the phrase - it was probably me.”

expenses and to keep the school’s opening on schedule.” The legislation will be sent to the Budget and Fiscal Management Committee for discussion and possible action.
King County Councilman Reagan Dunn introduced ordinances to the King County Council on Aug. 5 related to the sale of 35 acres of county owned land to the Tahoma School District. The ordinances request council approval of the Purchase and Sale Agreement of the land and seek appropriation approval for the transaction. The district would utilize district funds and a contribution from the state of Washington to meet the $9 million proposed purchase of 35 acres of the 156 acre site for a new high school development. The district plans to have the new high school ready for students by 2017 and have requested closing by the end of 2014 so construction of the facility can proceed. “We’ve reached a critical juncture,” said Superintendent Rob Morrow in a press release. “We need to move quickly toward closing of the sale by mid-November to avoid unnecessary and costly delay

Marriage in our modern world at times looks like a roll with some loaded dice. I doubt the trick of hanging together through the best and worst has only arisen since the advent of TV and store-bought bread. There are some lucky ones who have found the formula and the answer … somehow. Maple Valley resident Chuck Hardaway is one. He will be celebrating 60 years of marriage to his wife, Marge. Chuck found Marge when they were high school students in Michigan. They met in chemistry class and the rest of the story is a formula for the love and devotion that makes a marriage more than living in the same house. Chuck said it was the best decision he ever made, and he made many during a highly decorated career as an Air Force officer flying more than 100 missions during the Vietnam War as a forward air controller. Marge was the valedictorian of her high school class and Chuck describes her as “the smart one.” She is. Chuck and Marge were married in August 1954 and lived a remarkable life during Chuck’s military career and in Maple Valley after leaving the Air Force.
Gates praises and criticizes Robert M. Gates is probably the only secretary of defense who can claim to have had a “honeymoon” for his entire four and one-half years of service, serving under a Republican president, George W. Bush, and then a Democratic one, Barack Obama. Gates has written a book called “Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War.” As borne out in his book, Gates had clear goals to bring a lasting positive outcome to the War in Iraq. He has both praise and criticism for the presidents he served. Gates admits the Bush administration made many major mistakes in getting us involved in the war in Iraq, but he also found President Bush willing to listen, and a much better leader, especially in the last two years of his term when Gates served as his “secdef,” than he has been given credit for. Gates never saw the military as trying to “jam” Bush deeper into commitment in Iraq and Afghanistan, as opposed to how Obama and his advisers feel about Obama’s term. The former secretary of defense is probably saying “I told you so” as he observes the Sunni Islamic State resurgence in Syria and Iraq. His goal as Secretary of Defense was to keep just such an event from occurring. His view was that the U.S. had to maintain a strong presence in Iraq for a long time. Without that presence Iraq would see the resurgence of sectarian strife that would plague the Iraqis and our nation for decades. President Obama’s goal was
The couple raised a son, John, who, like his mother, was valedictorian and class president of his 1986 Tahoma High graduating class. He went on to graduate from the Naval Academy and is a captain and director of ophthalmology at Tripler Army Medical Center on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. He and his wife Christina have two children, William and Catherine. Chuck and Marge’s life together may seem like a common story of marriage; it is most uncommon. During the time I have spent with Chuck and Marge there is something electric in the air.
She helps him when he struggles to hear and corrects him when he gets times or dates wrong. Marge’s health has caused many trips to the hospital and care facilities recently. Chuck is there, each and every day. How have Chuck and Marge made it work? Magic. The kind of spell that flourishes from the first glance in a high school chemistry class through the best and worst of six decades together. This kind of magic is allotted to a lucky few. Chuck and Marge are two who have made one.
to get out of Iraq and to keep his promise to end U.S. participation in the war. Gates would also probably blame President Obama for not working hard enough to influence the Iraqi government to allow the American military to stay beyond their December 2011 pullout date. President Obama wanted a law passed by Iraq’s Parliament to protect American soldiers from prosecution in Iraq. Expecting the Iraqi Parliament to do this while not being very effective himself in getting legislation passed in the U.S. Congress must seem ironic to Gates. The Iraqi leadership wanted U.S. soldiers to stay after their pullout date, according to Gates, but they feared public opposition to any more foreign occupation. As a result, Americans left, helping to create the situation we see today in Iraq. Gates stated in his book that the Bush Administration chose al-Maliki as Shia Prime Minister of Iraq because he was weak. But he has become too strong and is now unwilling to cede power. He has been too parochial, favoring the Shias over the minority Sunni Muslims who have now risen up and taken over half the country. Al-Maliki also replaced Sunni military officers with Shia political allies, who have little knowledge of leading the military. These decisions have helped the Sunni uprising and the Iraqi military defeats. Being patriotic and caring deeply as a “soldiers’ defense secretary” for those who fought, were wounded and who died in that war, Gates must be grieving the loss of cities like Mosul and Fallujah to IS. During his time at Defense, and with Gen. Patraeus as his general, they were able to get the Sunni majority to become allies against al-Qaeda and to end much of the
violence in Iraq after the surge. Two and one-half years after the U.S. military withdrawal, half of Iraq and part of Syria are under control of the IS and the Kurds are virtually independent. Iraq, with al-Maliki’s insistence on favoring his fellow Shias, has alienated the Sunnis who have risen up with a strict, violent and intolerant response, publicly executing hundreds, and driving Christians and other religious minorities out from their area of control. As I watched Frontline’s “Losing Iraq” and read Gates’ “Duty,” I pondered whether the IS takeover could have been avoided. The answer is not easy. Is Obama having second thoughts since the rise of IS? His decision to bomb this past week shows that he has. He has said he won’t send combat soldiers back to Iraq. His current policy approach is to force neighbors like Turkey, Iran, and Saudi Arabia to deal with their own regional issues. The U.S. can’t be stretched too thin because it takes away options in other parts of the world, like Asia and Europe. Additionally, Iran, already tied up with its ally, the Shia Hezbollah forces fighting against Assad in Syria, is now even more threatened by the Sunni Muslim resurgence in Iraq. That should keep them busy for a long time and diverted away from trying to create a new Shia Persian Empire in the Middle East. We may find it easier to get an agreement from Iran over its nuclear buildup. All is not bad, since Israel does not feel pressure from Hezbollah on its northern border while dealing with Hamas in Gaza. Where will all this unrest in the Middle East lead? We will see the repercussions played out in our lifetimes. Decisions made in 2003 still haunt us today. I’m betting Gates is thankful his watch as secretary of defense is done.

DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS There are two types of veins. “Superficial veins” are close to the surface of the skin and increase in prominence after exercise or during hot weather. “Deep veins,” found far below the body’s surface, transport large amounts of blood. In these veins, often in the legs or pelvis, a blood clot (“thrombus”) can form. Deep vein thrombosis is a risk factor when a person has been sitting for a long time such as in the car on a long trip, in a plane, or when placed on bed rest. Serious problems can occur when a piece of the clot breaks free and travels through to the heart and then into the lungs, where it may cause a pulmonary embolism. Although sometimes clots in the deep veins cause leg pain, the clots often form without ever showing any symptoms. To diagnose deep vein thrombosis, your healthcare provider will ask you several questions about your symptoms. You’ll also have a physical exam in which your doctor can check your skin for areas of swelling, tenderness or discoloration. A CT or MRI can provide visual images of your veins and may show if you have a clot. To schedule an appointment, please call Southlake Clinic at (253) 395-1972. Our primary care providers are part of a multispecialty physician network and are also available on Saturdays. Our multi-specialty group has a clinic in Covington at 27005 168th Place SE. 1098268

However, Goral said permitting with the city allowed for those interactions with attendees. “Some of the citizens didn’t like those announcements going, but they were within their permit to do so,” Goral said. “We had a discussion before the start of the second night… but they wouldn’t change their event for that, nor would we tell them to.” Police had one officer in attendance to bolster Ten Thirty One’s security team. There were no reported injuries or traffic

Goral said there was one unsolved theft report involving items stolen from a tent. “You expect when you have a few hundred people together you might have a theft,” he said.

Through continuing education, post-graduate coursework, and professional study club affiliations I have been able to stay on the leading edge of dental technology and research. I currently hold memberships with the American Dental Association, Washington State Dental Association, and Seattle-King County Dental Society.

KENT “In Olympia you had folks who just could not make a decision, and in DC you had people who decided to make a point,� Kent School District Spokesman Christ Loftis said, summing up the situation. In the Kent School District, 21 of the 41 schools receive Title 1 funds. None met the 100 percent AYP threshold. “Because the standard for 2014 is perfection for all, the reality is that no school in our district, no school in the state, could meet that,� Loftis said. Loftis said that in Kent alone, $1.7 million in Title 1 dollars will have to be reallocated. “It’s affecting our ability to bring in curriculum resources and replace curriculum resources at our Title 1 schools,� Loftis said. “It’s real.� Loftis said that the list of programs and services that will be affected includes early learning and preschool programs in the Kent valley, staffing and staff training at schools in Covington, replacing dated curriculum at low income schools across the district, and individual approaches to identifying students’ needs and addressing them. “Title (1) funds allow us to do that more tailored approach in our poorer incomes and low income areas,� Loftis said. “It’s going to impact our ability to offer that tailored and tiered system.� Kent will use some reserves to reduce cuts, but because the dollar figure is so large Loftis said that the district couldn’t do a complete match of funds. Loftis also pointed out that

Patterson also said that, for this year anyway, the district will most likely use reserves to make up the funding difference so that no programs or services have to be cut. “It means maybe some other things somewhere else in the system don’t get funded or you don’t have quite as much in reserves,â€?

Choosing poor-quality vinyl windows is a mistake.
Our Fibrex® material is
2X STRONGER THAN VINYL
Choosing the proper window material is everything. Even in moderate temperature swings, poor-quality vinyl windows can warp, lose whatever energy efficiency they once had, and invite drafts and leaks. Significant home improvements are supposed to last, but can you imagine the expense and frustration of replacing your windows a second time, after just a couple of years? We custom-build our windows from our own patented Fibrex® material. Fibrex® is a patented wood composite that has the rich, elegant look and feel of finely crafted wood windows without the maintenance. Why did we make our Fibrex® material twice as strong as vinyl? To serve homeowners who only want to replace their windows once.

www.covingtonreporter.com • www.maplevalleyreporter.com three main options that could come to fruition. In no particular order: the state Legislature could opt to change state law and make student performance on standardized tests – that is, on the Smarter Balanced tests — a part of teacher evaluations, which would most likely result in restoration of the state’s waiver. Or, the Department of Education could decide to relent and extend a waiver to the state despite not including test data in teacher evaluations. The third option is that Congress enacts an update to ESEA, thereby replacing the requirements for every student to pass state tests — once again, the Smarter Balanced tests — in No Child Left Behind with new standards.
[ CHIEF from page 1] longtime Maple Valley Chief Michelle Bennett. Somers told council that he wanted the post in Maple Valley due to his prior experience with the community, including previously serving at Maple Valley chief for one year while Bennett was away getting additional experience after she had been promoted in rank. “When I was here before and standing in for Michelle I fell in love with the community,� Somers said. Both candidates detailed their many years of service in various posts across the Sheriff ’s Office. Nesel cited his desire to work in Maple Valley because of his affinity for the area and the proximity to his home. He also said he wants the opportunity to put his leadership style — which he referred to as “inclusive� and “collaborative� — to work in the community. Both commended each other to the council and told the council members that no matter whom they choose, they can’t go wrong. The captains also fielded questions about their philosophy on community policing, their vision for
Loftis pointed to graduation rates as one way the district measures success. Kent’s percentage, he said, is up to the high 80s. Patterson said that Tahoma looks to graduation rates and test scores but also to the whole student. “It’s not just an arbitrary set of test scores or rules that guide us,� Patterson said. “It’s also teachers being professionals and administrators doing their job and monitoring them as they go through the system.� The problem with perfection, Loftis said, is that it can very rarely be reached. “Using Utopia as your standard means that failure is always going to be your circumstance,� he said. “And people can’t survive in a failing circumstance forever.� Until circumstances change, and despite the negativi-

the department, how they perceive Maple Valley, their impression of the police department and how they see the relationship between the position of chief and city council members. “Community policing is where your police department gets involved with things other than crime and disorder issues,� Somers said. “I think community policing is a form of servant leadership and it’s a philosophy for serving the community as a whole.� Nesel said that the biggest difference between himself and Somers were their differing leadership styles, which he attributed to generational differences. Despite that — Somers also told council that “it’s a style difference� during his interview — both spoke about the need to be out and engage the community, building on relation-
ships with residents. Nesel spoke about the importance of communication and accessibility of the department to residents. “Community policing is going out every day and communicating,� Nesel said. “The number one point of our job is to communicate, communicate, communicate.�

Scrapbooking is an art form full of firsts Gretchen Leigh
Living with Gleigh
Being an avid scrapbooker, I did not settle for store bought baby albums for my daughters, where all I had to do was fill in the blanks; even though I actually had storebought ones for them. I probably should have used them, I would’ve been done long ago. In fact, my oldest daughter’s store-bought book was almost finished, but it was before I knew about the way to “properly” scrapbook. With that book, I committed the second worst scrapbooker’s sin after using “magnetic” albums: I stapled everything into the book. If you read last week’s column, you’re probably wondering why I’m writing about this again. It’s just taken me a long time to work out the details of these albums and has consumed my being. It’s all in the name of emptying a few plastic bins for my daughter to take to college. I bought preprinted scrapbooking pages back when my daughters were toddlers. Now I have to dig deep to remember my
intention for those albums. Finally, last Thursday I found my groove. I picked up my youngest daughter’s album looking for a page I had created. It was only in her album because I had been stressed about whether I had a picture of my youngest for every month of her first year, so I made a collage of them. With your oldest, you’re like a baby paparazzi, snapping pictures at every breath they take. With the younger kids, you’re so busy with the older kids, they get a little less Kodak moment time. I know for some of you picture taking is not a concern, nor are baby albums or school albums. I think it’s a hobby you’re either into or you’re not. I’m a big recorder of time, especially of my kids’ moments, so it weighs heavily on my mind. Imagine my surprise when I opened my youngest daughter’s album and not only found the page I had previously created, but that much of the album was completed. To me that’s like finding a $100 bill in a coat pocket. Now I essentially have a blueprint off which to work for my oldest daughter’s album.
I have to admit, part of what has been hanging me up, besides my lack of photographic skills those early days, was reliving my children’s baby years. They were good years, but a bit chaotic as I navigated early motherhood. It was with both joy and pain that I looked through all those pictures: remembering what was; knowing my kids are growing up and on the threshold of leaving home. As I flipped through the album looking at the pages’ themes, I got to the place titled “Firsts.” I had a few pictures already in there: first steps, first drink out of a sippy cup. As I searched for more, I was both grinning and grimacing while reliving those times when I was mostly concerned about keeping them alive and healthy. I found her first bites of food, her first Christmas, first Easter, first birthday. I was trying to organize it all when I got a text from her. She was at the high school helping the drama club clean out the props closet: “We’re done early, we heading out to our friend’s house.” Me: “As of yesterday you are legal to drive other kids. Make sure it’s okay with their parents. Be careful.” Daughter: “I will.” Ten or fifteen minutes later, she texted that they had made it safely. I texted back and told her to take a picture of that momentous event. I’m going to put in it her baby book under “Firsts.”

Does your dog jump on people? Does your dog run out the door or gate? Replace Fido’s bad behavior with a Sit! With your dog on leash, nicely command your dog to Sit and use your hands to gently help him sit. Hold his collar with one hand and use your other hand to tuck his rear. If you prefer to use food, hold a treat above his head to lure him into a sit. Either way, make sure he remains sitting until you say “Okay!” Be patient and consistent, and take care not to nag your dog by repeating commands. When Fido is reliably sitting on command, teach him to sit instead of jumping on people. Ask a friend or family member to calmly help you perfect a Sit for Greeting. Practice at the front door, in the yard, on a walk and when you come home from work. Make sure your helper is calm and quiet, otherwise Fido will get overly excited. Think of all the times throughout the day when it would be nice to have your dog sit: at the front door, the car door and the gate to your fence; before meals, before you toss the ball and before you hook or unhook the leash. The next time your dog offers a behavior you don’t want, replace it with a sit!
Overweight, Obesity and Pain in Cats Is obesity really a problem for cats? Obesity in pets is now the most important disease process pet owners must face. And the effects of obesity are far reaching because it contributes to many other diseases and shortens cats’ lives. What other medical conditions are associated with obesity? One major concern is the dramatically increased risk of diabetes mellitus. In addition, obesity increases the risk for and consequences of heart disease and cancers of all types. Even more common than diabetes, obesity sets the stage for joint damage and osteoarthritis (OA), leading to chronic pain.. It takes years of joint damage for such changes to show up on an x-ray. That means cats that are overweight or obese are traumatizing their joints over a very long period before we can see clinical evidence of that damage. How can I tell if my cat is overweight or obese? The most reliable way to evaluate a cat’s body condition is with a hands-on examination. There are three key areas of the body to evaluate: • Just behind the shoulder blades, you should be able to feel individual ribs easily with the flats of your fingers. • At the end of the ribcage where the lower back begins, you should feel a clear indentation–similar to the shape of an hourglass–on your cat’s sides. • Although some cats have a fold of skin that “droops” between the rear legs, the actual abdomen should feel “tucked up.” If all of these criteria are met, odds are strong that your cat is in good body condition, which will contribute to a pain-free lifestyle. I’m not sure if my cat is overweight or obese. How can I be sure? The best first step in the “battle of the bulge” is an evaluation by your cat’s veterinarian. Your cat’s weight and body condition score will be recorded in your cat’s medical record as a baseline (starting point). Be sure to ask that a pain assessment be included in the exam. If pain is present, the earlier it is detected, the quicker your cat can be treated and have its pain resolved.. He or she will recommend a specific food and portion per day and will provide guidance about how to deliver that portion based on lifestyle, convenience, and your cat’s individual needs. If there is already evidence of OA, reducing inflammation and pain will help encourage your cat to become more active, which will speed appropriate weight loss.

Enumclaw’s Lucarelli wins again in the Lads BY DENNIS BOX dbox@soundpublishing.com
Trainer Frank Lucarelli picked up his second consecutive stakes victory Saturday after scoring a win in the Emerald Derby at Emerald Downs. Trackattacker, a 2-year-old gelding, muscled his way to finish first in the 6-1/2 furlong $50,000 Washington Thoroughbred Breeders and Owners Association Lads Stakes. On Sunday, Lucarelli, an Enumclaw resident, won the Emerald Derby with Mebossman in a thriller at the wire against race favorites Del Rio Harbor and Noosito, both trained by Doris Harwood. Juan Gutierrez was riding. Mebossman is a 3-year-old Washingtonbred by Petionville out of Peaceful Wings and was bred by Buckley residents Rick and Debbie Pabst on Blue Ribbon Farm, which has been in operation since 1973.
WTBOA LADS Saturday, Trackattacker set a WTBOA Lads stakes record in 1 minute, 16.19 seconds. Trackattacker is undefeated in three starts, all at Emerald Downs, and has collected $59,318 in earnings. Following the race, jockey Leslie Mawing said, “He’s a strong horse and he was pretty much the giant in this race. I just wanted to extend his stride and let him run free.” Mawing, who has ridden the winner in the last eight stakes at the Auburn oval, said
Trackattacker is, “at the top of the list of 2-year-olds I’ve ever ridden.” The gelding broke from the second post position and went straight to the front extending his margin at every call, finishing the race seven lengths ahead of Moby who ran second. He paid $2.10 for a win and $2.10 for both show and place. Lucarelli said the plan is to run Trackattacker next in the $50,000 Daily Racing Form Dennis Dodge Stakes on Washington Cup Day, Sept. 7, and the $65,000 Gottstein Futurity Sept. 28. “You never know with 2-year-olds, but as long as he’s healthy, that’s the plan,” Lucarelli said. Lucarelli won the Gottstein Futurity and the Lads in 2008 with Gallant Son. The 8-year-old son of Malabar Gold has earned $552,278 lifetime and is still running and winning. Gallant Son won the Jess Jackson Owners’ Handicap at Santa Rosa Aug. 10. He has a record of 11-2-6 from 39 starts. Trackattacker, the son of Harbor The Gold out of Eclatante is owned by R.E.V. Racing, the nom de plume of Roy and Ellie Schaefer of Port Orchard.
EMERALD DERBY Mebossman’s Emerald Derby victory was the first stakes win for the bay gelding. He is 3-3-1 from 12 starts finishing second in the 2013 edition of the Gottstein Futurity to Del Rio Harbor. Mebossman ran the 1-1/8 mile derby in 1:47.23 paying $13, $5.40 and $2.60.
Trackattacker set a 6-1/2 furlong stakes record winning the WTBOA Lads Saturday at Emerald Downs. The Frank Lucarelli-trained 2-year-old will likely run in the Gottstein Futurity PHOTO COURTESY EMERALD DOWNS The gelding ran out of the four hole and came from three lengths back in the stretch to run down Noosito and edging Del Rio Harbor by a neck at the wire. “I knew it was going to be a tough race because Noosito and Del Rio Harbor are tough horses to beat,” Gutierrez said. “Frank (Lucarelli) told me to be patient and ask him at the end. I was confident in my horse on the backside because I was behind the other horses and I had a lot of horse
under me. My horse was closing pretty good, little by little.” Mebossman’s win check was $41,250 increasing his lifetime earnings to $109,917.

Trends in Veterinary Medicine By Melanie Caviness, DVM One of the challenges in veterinary medicine is getting pet owners to bring their pets in for annual preventative care or in the early stage of disease. Recent trends show people bringing their pets to the vet after the pet has been sick for a few days. Waiting can make a disease more difficult to treat. Many in the veterinary community have looked to wellness programs to encourage pet owners to bring their pets to the vet more frequently. These “Wellness Plans” include complete preventative care for pets of different ages at a discounted fee with monthly payment options. I’m excited to say that Wilderness Animal Hospital has a full range of Wellness Plans available for every life stage. Wellness Plans are developed to provide services for annual wellness as well as proactive care to try to not just treat illness, but try to eliminate problems before they happen. We have always offered puppy and kitten packages, but now we also have the options for spaying and neutering. For adult pets we offer five levels of care, each building on the previous level. Each Wellness Plan is priced at a significant discount to normal pricing. An additional benefit is pets that have a Wellness Plan are eligible for unlimited complimentary exams. This is my favorite part of the plan, because I hope this removes the barrier many people have to bringing their pet in for exams and gives the chance to treat disease in earlier stages. All in all I think this is a great way to make comprehensive care more convenient, affordable and helps us to prevent disease and detect problems at an earlier stage.

CONKS SOAK UP ICE BUCKET CHALLENGE The Kentwood Football team joined the fundraising fad on Aug. 15, posting a video of 110-plus athletes and coaches soaking themselves in the Ice Bucket Challenge for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Kentwood football coach Rex Norris said the ice and buckets were all donated by area businesses and a company, that he declined to name at this time, will donate to ALS in Kentwood’s name.
Return of the king Hall of Fame coach Tom Ingles will return to the Kentwood sidelines after an 11 year absence
BY ERIC MANDEL
emandel@covingtonreporter.com
He’s back. Former Kentwood football coach, and two-time state champion, Tom Ingles will return to the Conks sideline for the 2014 season as a quarterbacks coach. Ingles, who had guided Kentwood to a 102-32 record from 1989 to 2003 moved back to the area and retired from head coaching after leading a squad in Sacramento for the last two years. “I’m hoping to be able to blend in,” Ingles said. “Learn to be an assistant coach again… It will be a little bit of an adjustment I’m sure.” Ingles left Kentwood for Puyallup in 2003 after exhausting his eligibility with the Kent School District’s retire-rehire process. He resigned in 2009 after six years as the Vikings’ head coach, finishing as one of the most successful high school football coaches in state history. Over 33 years as a head coach in Washington, he finished with three state championships (Kentwood, 2001 and 2002, and Liberty, 1988) and a record of 248-103. He was inducted into the Washington State Football Hall of Fame in 2005.
Tom and his wife, Zena, commuted back and forth between Washington and Northern California, as Tom took care of his ill parents and she worked as a principal in Davis, Calif. After his parents’ deaths, Tom resigned from Puyallup and joined his wife. In Sacramento, Ingles worked as a substitute in various roles for his wife’s school district — librarian, paraeducator, security guard, etc. and also began a rebuilding project for the Bella Vista High School football team, a school that drastically improved in his first season that ended with four wins. “It was more than they had won in a while,” Ingles said. “We beat a team they hadn’t beaten in 10 years. It’s different when you are in a program that isn’t used to winning. I was a little shocked. I haven’t been a part of a losing team in a really, really long time.” Ingles said he enjoyed the experience with the Broncos, building offseason programs and creating a football culture. “It takes a little time,” Ingles said. “We worked at it day by day and started to get a little stronger, faster, bigger - things you have to do to
The Kentwood football team will add a Hall of Famer to the sidelines, when former head coach Tom Ingles returns to the Conks staff. File Photo stay competitive.” After Zena retired last year, the pair moved back to their Covington home, arriving earlier this month. Ingles remained close with current Conks head coach Rex Norris, who Ingles hired as a Kentwood assistant in 1995, and recalls some
of the other assistants as his former athletes. Ingles listed proximity and comfort with the coaching staff as reasons for his return to Kentwood. “At this point I don’t want to be [ more RETURN page 13 ]

a head coach anymore,â€? he said. “There is a system in place that I had a part in putting together so I know a little bit about it.â€? Norris couldn’t believe his luck. “It’s a pretty cool thing,â€? said Norris, in his 11th year as head coach. “He’s been an extraordinary man and one of my mentors. I feel blessed that he’s even considered it.â€? With Ingles working with the quarterbacks, it should give Norris time to focus on overall coaching. But Ingles expects to give a hand wherever it will be taken. “I’m sure I’ll be watching all of it,â€? he said. “I’ve coached both sides of the ball. I really love the game or I still wouldn’t be doing it‌ I think I have a little bit to offer to all of the players, and hopefully they will be receptive.â€? Ingles said he is excited about working with ninth graders, who weren’t allowed on varsity during his time as coach. “I’m hoping this will invigorate me a little bit and I’ll have a little fun,â€? he said. Ingles, known for his direct and straightforward approach, said he hasn’t worked as an assistant since the mid-1970s, but hopes to make positive contributions to the team. “I was at conditioning the other day; it’s been a lot of fun so far,â€? he said. “But I haven’t stood out in a cold October night in the rain yet.â€? Ingles called the quarterback position one of the most difficult positions to play in any US team sport. For him, it’s about building confidence in a young signal caller. “You try to get as much as you possibly can with the ability that they have,â€? he said. “I haven’t seen any of the Kentwood guys play, so it’s pretty hard for me to say this is what I’m going to do with these guys until I look at them.â€? As for compensation, Ingles says he isn’t sure if he is volunteering or will be paid. “It doesn’t really matter,â€? he said. “Coaching is coaching.â€?

Bait for slugs now to protect your garden in the fall and store dill seed? B.P. Dill is a great herb because it is easy to grow and both the foliage and seeds are great for flavoring food. To harvest the seed, cut the flower umbels or clusters when the oldest seeds in the bottom of the cluster start to turn black. Place the entire seed head in a shoe box and store in a cool, dry spot. In a few weeks you can shake the ripe seeds onto paper and then pour them into a glass container with a tightfitting lid for storage. I am growing several types of basil. One has beautiful purple blooms. Must I clip off the flowers of the basil plant to keep the leaves coming? H.,
perennials like iris, poppies and pulmonaria or lungwart. Do not move peonies or shrubs until fall when the weather cools and the rain returns. Raspberry plants that gave fruit in June will have yellow canes this month and these can be cut all the way to the ground. Everbearing raspberries still giving fruit can be harvested until they stop producing berries; then cut back the oldest canes by one-half. I am growing dill plants and want to store the seeds for winter use. How does one harvest

The middle of August is the best time to bait for slugs. Dry weather may mean you don’t see these slimy creatures, but all the slug eggs that were laid earlier in the summer will begin to hatch as soon as the nights grow longer. Baiting for slugs and snails in August will keep the population under control for the fall gardening season. New slug baits are pet and vegetable safe so invest in slug control now. August is also a good time of year to dig, divide or transplant early-summer

WASHINGTON STATE PARKS ANNOUNCE ‘FREE DAY’ FOR AUG. 25 The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission is giving the public a “free day” on Monday, Aug. 25 at the state parks. Day-use visitors will not need a Discover Pass to visit state parks. The ‘free day’ is in honor of the birthday of the National Park Service, which was established on Aug. 25, 1916. State Parks ‘free days’ are in keeping with legislation that created the Discover Pass, a $30 annual or $10 one-day
permit required on lands managed by Washington State Parks, the Washington departments of Natural Resources and Fish & Wildlife. The Discover Pass legislation provided that State Parks could designate up to 12 ‘free days’ each year when the pass would not be required to visit state parks. The Discover Pass is still required to access lands managed by WDFW and DNR on these days. ‘Free days’ apply only to day use, not overnight stays or rented facilities. Washngton State Parks will have two more ‘free days’ in 2014: Sept. 27, in recognition of National Public Lands Day and Nov. 11, in honor of Veterans Day.

You can remove half the basil blooms and enjoy the purple majesty of the other half but if you allow your basil to flower in late summer it will take a vacation from making new foliage and your fresh supply of basil will dwindle. Keep your basil plants well watered and fertilized in hot weather and you can be enjoying new foliage and making pesto until the first frost. My neighbor told me not to fertilize my roses in August or they will die in the winter. Is this advice true of false? Anonymous False. Feeding roses late in the sum-
Q A
WHAT’S BLOOMING AT LAKE WILDERNESS ARBORETUM Throughout the summer daylilies bloom in the Arboretum’s Legacy Garden, which preserves both rare and unusual plants including those from two well known gardeners, Loie Benedict and Marjorie Baird, both cited in Plantswomen in the Pacific Northwest. Daylilies are also popular plants for home gardeners, because they thrive in a variety of planting zones and soil conditions, blooming every year with
mer will not cause them to die but it can make them more susceptible to an early frost because feeding promotes tender new growth. To keep your roses in bloom all autumn you should continue to deadhead or remove the faded flowers from hybrid tea roses and other varieties that are repeat bloomers. Some roses such as climbers, species and old-fashioned varieties only bloom once in the summer. These will not rebloom no matter what you do so don’t feed the “once and done” roses this month so they can slip into winter dormancy with ease. Roses are thirsty plants and they will attract

almost no extra attention. Hemerocallis, the botanical name, means “beauty for a day,” which describes the life of a daylily flower that opens in the morning and withers by day’s end. Each flower scape has many buds that allow the plant to bloom for several weeks. Most daylilies planted by home gardeners are hybrid cultivars. Choose them by early, mid, and lateflowering plants at different heights, which will bloom throughout the summer. Use moist, well-draining
soil amended with compost to plant daylilies in full sun; space 12 to 18 inches apart. Late summer is the best time to divide daylilies. Use a sharp knife or spade to separate healthy young fans, replanting immediately. Discard any small or diseased plants. Mulch for the winter.
