Sound Transit nears decision on light rail route through Kent BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
Sound Transit will pick a preferred light rail route this summer for a more than $1 billion project
to extend tracks from SeaTac to Kent and eventually to Federal Way. The agency will release on Friday a draft environmental impact statement (EIS) that
examines route alternatives and multiple station options. The potential routes are along State Route 99 (Pacific Highway South), the west side of Interstate 5 or a hybrid system that
uses Highway 99 and I-5. With the release of the EIS, the public will have a chance to tell Sound Transit which route they prefer at public meetings on Wednesday, May 6 at the Federal
Way Community Center, and Thursday, May 7 at Highline College. Public hearings start at 5:30 p.m. at each meeting. [ more RAIL page 5 ]

Hundreds of Kent-Meridian High School students, staff and community members gathered last Friday to remember Lupo Benson with a candlelight vigil at French Field, where Benson had spent much time practicing and playing football for the Royals. Benson, a senior, died April 1, a
day after falling off a car’s hood in the school’s parking lot. (See related story, page 4.) “This has been a tough week for everybody,” Kent-Meridian principal Wade Barringer said at the vigil. “It is always tough when you lose a friend, a classmate, a son.” Benson’s smiling face was a common sight in the high school [ more LUPO page 4 ]

Kent man faces charges after police chase, gun pointing BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
Kent Police arrested a 30-yearold Kent man for allegedly pointing an AK-47 assault rifle at several people during a chase last Saturday along State Route 167. The man, driving a white 1998 Honda Civic 4-door, allegedly pointed the rifle at a father and his two young children in Auburn and then fled the scene with Auburn Police officers in pursuit, according to probable cause documents filed by the Kent Police. The man also used his vehicle to strike three motorcycles with the riders mounted. He later pointed the gun at drivers in Kent before police used
a pursuit intervention technique and the subject lost control, resulting in his vehicle overturning just as he was getting onto the 84th Street northbound on-ramp to Highway 167. As officers surrounded the vehicle, there was a brief exchange of gunfire as gunshots were heard inside the vehicle. Police took the man into custody at about 6:30 p.m. The man made his first court appearance on Monday when a King County Superior Court judge set bail at $750,000. He remains in custody in the county jail. County prosecutors expected to file charges against him on Wednesday, after the Kent Reporter’s press deadline.
The man faces potential charges of first-degree assault, seconddegree assault, felony eluding a police officer and reckless endangerment. Around 4:45 p.m., Kent officers responded to a call in the 10200 block of Southeast 240th Street for another report of a subject, driving a white Honda, who had pointed a gun at another driver. The car then fled west on SE 240th Street. Officers quickly located the vehicle at the intersection of James Street and Central Avenue. The vehicle matched the description of the vehicle that had fled from Auburn Police. As the suspect travelled north on Central Avenue, he tried to elude the officers during a pursuit.
County executive orders inquest into shooting death FOR THE REPORTER
King County Executive Dow Constantine on Wednesday ordered an inquest into the death of Richard Duncalf following an exchange of gunfire with Kent Police on July 20. According to the police investigation, the man was the subject
of a manhunt in the 22900 block of 86th Avenue South in Kent when officers came under fire and returned fire, fatally wounding Duncalf, 28. The King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office recommended the inquest after reviewing materials from the Auburn Police Department, which conducted the
investigation on behalf of the Valley Investigation Team, according to a county media release. Inquests are fact-finding hearings conducted before a six-member jury. Under a standing executive order, inquests are convened to determine the causes and circumstances of any death involving a member of any law

A short standoff between the police and the subject took place as officers attempted to get the suspect to come out of the vehicle. Owing to the circumstances and the potential dangers involved, Valley SWAT responded to the scene and the suspect was safely taken into custody. The subject appears to have sustained minor injuries as a result of the collision and gunshot wounds to his arm. Medics were on scene to provide the necessary medical attention, and he was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation. “It appears this suspect’s actions threatened the public during several incidents (Saturday) and it was fortunate he was taken into
custody without further risk to the community. In these types of circumstances, safety to the community, the officers, and the suspect is our highest priority,” said Kent Police Assistant Chief Derek Kammerzell. Because of the volatile circumstances, both lanes of travel were temporarily shut down on Highway 167 for safety and containment purposes. The investigation is being handled for Kent Police by the Valley Investigation Team, which is composed of surrounding police agency investigators. The officers involved in the discharge of their weapons have all been placed on administrative leave, which is standard practice in incidents like this.
enforcement agency within King County while in the performance of his or her duties. Inquests provide transparency into law enforcement actions so the public may have all the facts established in a court of law. The ordering of an inquest should carry no other implication, county officials said. Jurors answer a series of interrogatories to determine the significant factual issues involved
in the case, and it is not their purpose to determine whether any person or agency is civilly or criminally liable. The order signed by the executive requests King County District Court Presiding Judge Donna Tucker to assign a judge to set a date and conduct the inquest. The ordering of inquests is a function vested in the county executive under the King County code.

Couple plead not guilty to pimping girl

BY STEVE HUNTER
shunter@kentreporter.com
A Kent couple faces charges of promoting commercial sexual abuse of a minor in connection with recruiting a 13-year-old girl to work as a prostitute out of the man’s East Hill apartment as well as on a trip to Oregon. LaDontae M. Lewis, 20, and Tamika L. Jones, 18, each pleaded not guilty to the charges on March 30 in King County Superior Court. Lewis remained in custody this week at the county jail at the Maleng Regional Justice Center
in Kent with bail set at $75,000. Jones remained at the county jail in Seattle with bail set at $75,000. “They directed the child to pose provocatively and took pictures of her, which they then posted online,� senior deputy prosecuting attorney Val Richey said in charging documents. “They prostituted the victim to dozens of men and took the money paid by the sex buyers.� Kent Police initiated the case in early March when a detective reviewed backpage.com for potential victims of sex trafficking being posted in the escorts section, according to charging papers. He discovered an ad
that featured four photos of a young female posed in various stages of undress. The ad listed a phone number and a $150 special fee in Kent. The detective posed as a customer and the undercover investigation began. Eventually, the 13-year-old girl called 911 to report a domestic dispute between herself and Jones at the same Washington Park Apartment complex along Kent Kangley Road that police had been looking at as the possible home base for the girl. The girl told police said she had met Lewis in Skyway a few months ago through a friend. A couple of weeks later, Lewis and Jones asked

Work to repair the Lower Russell Road levee along the Green River in Kent has been pushed out a year by King County officials because a preferred project plan has yet to be chosen. The original project schedule anticipated selection of a preferred repair alternative by the King County Flood Control District in February, according to an update on April 3 from the flood district. Due to on-going evaluation of different project alignments, this decision is now expected in June. Construction work along rivers cannot take place during the rainy season, and permit conditions require that work in the river only occur in the

summer between July 1 and August 31 when Chinook salmon protected by the Endangered Species Act are not present. Because of these constraints the delay moves the construction of the project from 2016 to the summer of 2017. The Lower Russell Road Levee setback project is along the right (east) bank of the Green River between South 212th Street and Veterans Drive/South 228th Street. The 1.4-mile-long levee improvement project will replace an old levee and revetment that do not meet current engineering design standards. The new levee will be set back from the river, where feasible, and better protect residential and commercial development behind the levee, while also improving riparian and aquatic habitat along the Green River for fish and wildlife. The project is funded with $17.4 million in King County Flood District funds.

While at the apartment, the girl said the couple had her undress to her bra and panties and took photos of her that they wanted to post on backpage.com, according to charging documents. Jones taught the girl about how to respond to phone calls and what to do with the money she received from men while in the apartment. The couple also reportedly took the girl to Portland where she had sex for money with about 10 men in one day in a hotel room.

A Kent-Meridian High School student died from head injuries he suffered falling off the hood of a car at the school’s parking lot. Lupo Benson, 18, a senior, died on April 1 from the injuries at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle, said Chris Loftis, spokesman for the Kent School District, in a phone interview about the March 31 accident. “He was very wellliked, respected, friendly and outgoing,� Loftis said. “It’s a big loss to the school.� Benson was riding on top of a car’s hood. When the car stopped moving, he fell to the ground and hit his head, Loftis said. The accident occurred at about 2:18 p.m., just eight minutes after school got out. People rushed to aid Benson immediately and paramedics arrived Forrest said the anniversary of Benson’s death will forever be etched in her memory. “April 1st will no longer be April Fool’s Day for me, but a day to remember one of my closest friends,� she said. Benson planned to join the Air Force after graduating high school, Barringer said. The school will call Benson’s name at graduation in June and present his family with his high school diploma. Following the vigil, some students gathered
within four minutes, Loftis said. “(Benson) was riding on the hood of the vehicle and was thrown from the vehicle when the vehicle made a sharp turn while in the school parking lot,� according to a Kent Police media release. Police are unsure how fast the driver was going at the time of the incident. A Kent accident investigator intends to wrap up the investigation this week, said police spokeswoman Melanie Robinson on Wednesday. The case will then be turned over to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office to determine whether or not charges will be filed against the driver. “This incident is a reminder to teens that this is a dangerous game and the risks can prove to be tragic,� Robinson said about what’s referred to as “surfing� on the hood of a car. on the football field to release balloons in Benson’s honor. Football players and coaches circled around the “KM� in the end zone for reflection and prayer. Benson’s classmates gave his parents banners signed by the students as well as a banner from Kentlake High School students. The football team presented the family with a helmet signed by the players. Representatives from the football programs at other Kent high schools also attended the vigil.

www.kentreporter.com [ RAIL from page 1 ] People can give feedback at federalwaylink.org through May 26. Sound Transit plans to extend light rail from South 200th Street at Angle Lake in SeaTac to near South 240th Street in Kent. Eventually, if funding is available, the track would go to South 272nd Street in Federal Way and then to the Federal Way Transit Center near South 320th Street. “Hopefully, in June or at least sometime this summer, the Sound Transit board will identify a preferred alternative,” said Cathal Ridge, South Corridor development manager of Sound Transit, at a Kent City Council workshop on Tuesday to preview the draft EIS.
Decision in 2016 The agency will release a final EIS on the preferred route in the middle of next year and the board will make a final route decision in late 2016, Ridge said. After the design phase, construction is scheduled to begin in 2019 and service will start in 2023 to Kent/ Des Moines. The estimated cost of the alternative routes range from a low of $1.32 billion for an I-5 route with stations in Kent near I-5, at South 272nd Street by I-5, and at the Federal Way Transit Center; to a high of $1.84 billion for a Highway 99 route with stations at South 216th Street, near

and transition to I-5 in the Kent Des Moines Road and 30th Avenue South station area • Start on I-5 and transition to State Route 99 near Kent Des Moines Road and 30th Avenue South station area Ridge said the primary concerns raised so far by residents, property owners and city officials include
April 10, 2015 [5]
minimizing impact to commercial parcels along Highway 99; protecting investments by cities along Highway 99 to develop the corridor; construction impacts of the project; allow for future construction of State Highway 509 extension; a general desire to locate a station close to Highline College in Des Moines; support transit-oriented development around the stations; unanimous concern for enough parking and transit connections to the stations. “These are the things we have heard in outreach activities so far,” Ridge said. “We’ll probably hear a lot of these themes in the upcoming public comment period. But this gives you a flavor of what people are thinking of as they look at our analysis.” The draft EIS also breaks down how many businesses or residential developments will be bought out by the agency depending on the route chosen. More businesses would be displaced with the Highway 99 route while more residential developments are impacted by an I-5 alternative. Sound Transit is looking at as many as eight potential locations for the Kent-Des Moines station. The alternatives include on the Highline campus; on the west side, east side or in the middle of Pacific Highway South; on 30th Avenue South; as well as along I-5.

Apologizing for my actions My name is Robert Cal Adams III. I am writing to the media in order to apologize to the employees for the robberies that took place in March through April of 2014. People go to work every day to provide for their families, to live a comfortable life. Every job has its purpose, and a lot of people love their jobs. All people should have the luxury of feeling safe at home, at work and even in just everyday life. Nobody deserves to come to work and be put in a bad situation. I blame nobody but myself for the actions I took. They were very stupid and selfish. There is absolutely no excuse for committing any crime. What I can say is that I had an addiction that I’m now working on. I’m a work in progress. I’m not apologiz-

New rail safety regulations are welcome North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple has announced new rules that reduce the vapor pressure in oil tanker cars leaving his state’s booming oil patch. The goal is to reduce the risk of fiery explosions like the one that killed 47 people in Lac-Megantic, Quebec in July 2013.
In separate efforts, Congress is beefing up safety standards for oil tank cars and the White House is calling for increased rail inspections and slower speeds for oil trains traveling through populated areas. Meanwhile, the Washington Legislature is working to tighten regulations on oil trains and
But seriously, I want to apologize from the bottom of my heart, and please know that I will do anything to make it up and try and prevent these things from happening. I’m working on my problems and trying my best not to go back to that way of life I was living. I apologize to everyone I affected. I never wanted or intended on hurting anyone and never will. – Robert Cal Adams III, “The Rapid Fan Bandit”

COMMENTARY
?
Question of the week:
There will be no pomp or ceremony when Gov. Jay Inslee sits down with the Democrat and Republican leaders of the House and Senate to talk budget. Rather, the state’s chief executive and four caucus honchos will try to figure out what routes to take – and which to avoid – to reach agreement in the 18 days left before the Legislature is scheduled to adjourn. What should be apparent, though maybe not admitted in this week’s particular gathering, is neither majority party enjoys much bargaining advantage at the outset of this year’s negotiations because the balance of power in each chamber is, well, pretty balanced. In the House, Democrats only outnumber Republicans 51-47. That doesn’t give Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, much extra muscle with which to try to impose his will on the process. In the Senate, Republicans operate with a 26-23 edge on Democrats. (The Republican Caucus has 25 adherents of the Grand Old Party and one centrist Democrat). That doesn’t provide Senate Majority Leader Mark Schoesler, R-Ritzville, much extra strength to force matters his way either. Such numeric equality fuels optimism among Olympia’s political class – sort of like what Chicago Cub fans feel this time of the season – in the ability of the House and Senate to reach the hundreds of little compromises on spending that are the guts of the 500-page spending tome. These are the $1 million, $5 million and $10 million decisions for budgets of state agencies and the provisos for studies, task forces and reports to the Legislature. These same insiders’ aren’t quite so effervescent about lawmakers easily resolving conflicts between the chambers on modifying

Additionally, BNSF Railway announced in February that it will spend $189 million this year on maintenance and improvements on its track system in Washington. The work focuses on replacing almost 50 miles of rails and 200,000 railroad ties along more than 1,000 miles of track. [ more BRUNELL page 7 ]

County mails ballots; emergency radio levy measure up for vote King County Elections mailed ballots on Wednesday to all registered voters for the April 28 Special Election. This special election includes measures from seven jurisdictions on issues such as transportation, school construction, public safety,

This is where they hope House Democrats and Senate Republicans are cognizant of the thin ice on which they’ve set their bargaining stakes. Consider the House’s position.

Democrat leaders insist the votes are there and they brush off repeated challenges by their Republican counterparts to prove it. Democrats contend if they did pass it and sent it to the Senate for consideration, it would be ignored, so why go through the exercise. Senate budget negotiators will no doubt point out this shortcoming as they look to whittle down the size of the House Democrat’s plan. In the meantime, Senate negotiators are operating on weaker ground in some areas themselves, after what happened in a marathon session that began on the

Railroads and highways are the backbone of America’s transportation network. Rail cars and trucks carry essentials that we use daily. Unfortunately, some of that cargo is hazardous. While the current focus is on crude oil accidents, other substances have been involved. For example, in the early morning of April 11, 1996, a train traveling

afternoon April 2 and finished the next morning. Senate Republicans made it harder to amend their proposed $37.8 billion budget with a rule change requiring a supermajority vote of 60 percent to pass any amendment offered on the floor. This meant passage required votes of at least 30 of the 49 senators. This blunted the Democrats, while at the same time allowed moderate GOP members to vote for a Democrat-sponsored amendment on a controversial subject without fear it would pass or be used against them in a future campaign.
40 mph through western Montana derailed when a worn rail broke, sending 19 cars off the tracks. Six of those cars contained hazardous chemicals, including chlorine, a gas commonly used in water purification and sewer treatment. The derailment sent a cloud of chlorine gas toward the small town of Alberton, 30 miles west of Missoula. Emergency responders immediately evacuated the town, closed Interstate 90 and transported 356 people to hospitals for chlorine inhalation. Today, that same track carries tank cars loaded with gasoline bound for Spokane, northern
But the system on which all these entities and personnel lean is 20 years old, and given recent population growth and the countless advances in technology since 1995, the system is showing its gray hairs.

There were 32 roll call votes on Democratsponsored amendments. Of those, 10 received 25 or more votes, which is a majority in the chamber. A key one dealt with pay hikes for state workers. The Senate budget contained raises of $1,000 per employee per year. The amendment called for approving new contracts negotiated between the state employee unions and the governor’s office, putting it in line with the House budget. Six Republicans joined the 23 minority Democrats to support the revision but, because of the rule, it failed
Idaho and northeast Washington. Originally, the gasoline traveled through the Yellowstone Pipeline from Billings to Spokane. But in 1995 – the year before the derailment – the Salish and Kootenai tribes terminated a lease that allowed the pipeline to operate under their land. As a result, refined petroleum must now be loaded onto tank cars in Missoula, railed 100 miles northwest to Thompson Falls and then re-injected into the pipeline, which ends in Spokane. While pipelines may be the safest way to transport oil and gas, projects like the Keystone XL are stymied by President Obama’s

Stopping rail shipments of crude oil and hazardous cargo is not a viable option. It is better to strengthen railroad beds, replace aging track and bridges, separate tracks from busy roads, enact better safety standards, increase inspections, continue to train emergency responders and invest in new technology and modern equipment.

Safer equipment and increased inspections benefits freight and passenger trains, as well. Additionally, railroads are purchasing safer rail cars and newer locomotives that are more efficient and environmentally friendly. Freight rail is an important pillar of Washington’s economy, generating ten percent of the state’s GDP. Railroads support more than 342,000 Washington jobs and are vital to the region’s international trade.

Drop the beer Police arrested a man for investigation of fourth-degree assault after he reportedly punched a bouncer who told him he couldn’t take his beer outside a bar. Employees at the Cloud 9 bar, 806 Central Ave. S., called 911 at about 1:41 a.m. on March 29 to report that security had an uncooperative man held down in a parking lot, according to the police report. The man had tried to walk out of the bar with
an open beer container and when a bouncer tried to stop him from taking the beer outside, the man punched the bouncer in the face. Another bouncer helped take the man to the ground and they held him until police arrived. Officers arrested the man for investigation of fourth-degree assault.

The car flipped onto its roof but all four occupants were able to walk away from the crash and each fled the scene, according to the police report. Police stopped two young men walking along Southeast 224th Street who witnesses had seen leaving the car. The two said they were occupants of the vehicle and the driver had lost control going through a curve while driving fast. The driver called 911 several hours later to report he had been carjacked at knifepoint. Police talked to the man and determined he was the same man witnesses told them had been driving the Impala that crashed earlier in the day.

The council passed an ordinance that the five board members would include one person from the faith community, one from the business community, one with human resources expertise and two at-large commissioners. The members are: • Greg Haffner (business community representative) Attorney/partner at Curran Law Firm; Kent Chamber of Commerce member; past president Rotary Club of Kent; pro bono counsel for Kent Downtown Partnership; served on Kent Public Facilities District (ShoWare Center) board and Lodging Tax Advisory Committee. • Mizanur Rahman (faith community representative) President, Islamic Center of Kent; volunteer leader for the Bangladeshi community in South King County; senior engineer Solid Waste Division King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks; project manager for new Islamic Center
multipurpose building. • Mason Hudson (human resources expert) Human resources director at St. Clare Hospital, Lakewood; previously worked as human resources consultant at MultiCare Health System, Tacoma and director of human resources at University of Washington Medical Center; past board member for United Cerebral Palsy. • Kelly Beckley (at-large representative) Owner and president of BDP Design LLC, Kent; published author of children’s literature; board member of Jubilee Women’s Center and Kent Downtown Partnership; previously worked as senior marketing executive in real estate and as Frause public relations executive. • Coreen Jones (at-large representative) Secretary for Kent Senior Advisory Committee; volunteer at Kent Senior Center Deli Cafe and Full Life Adult Heath Center; retired from Department of Veterans Affairs and Defense Department; Air Force veteran. Neither the mayor nor the part-time council has had a pay raise in more than 10 years even though the council had the au-
thority to raise pay. “I would guess we are going to have to go over all of the facts of the background of the salaries,� Beckley said during an interview after the meeting. “It’s been 10 years, I didn’t realize that. I would like to give them a raise for all that they do but we have a lot of good people on this commission who are going to have a lot of good input. I look forward to working with them and coming up with a good solution. “I thought it would be a good opportunity for me to learn more about the city council, what they do and what they deserve to be paid,� she said. Cooke makes $102,192 per year as a full-time mayor. The part-time council members are paid $13,752 per year. The council president, a two-year term, gets $14,496 a year. Rahman said during an interview that he’s confident the commission can stay independent from the mayor and council as it makes a decision on pay increases. “I don’t think they will influence us, we should work on our own,� Rahman said. “We work for the population of the city, not just the council and the mayor.� Cooke suggested last fall during her preliminary budget report to
April 10, 2015 [9] the council a mayor’s pay raise to $133,192 to put the salary more in line with peer cities such as Everett ($158,198), Renton ($134,400), Bellingham ($132,792), Auburn ($126,444) and Federal Way ($112,800), according to 2013 figures compiled by the city. The council didn’t take any action on Cooke’s proposal. Rahman said he’s uncertain if pay raises will be given or not. “We have to look at how things are going with other cities and other mayors,� Rahman said. “If it didn’t happen for the last 10 years, maybe they deserve it or maybe not. It depends on the condition of the city and how much revenue is generated by the city. It depends on many factors, so to tell you now that there will be some increment or not, it will take time for the commission to work on it.� Committee members are expected to meet at least twice before July 1 and come up with salary figures. The commission could decide to adjust salaries and benefits and include a fixed annual salary inflation factor. If the board goes that route, the council will take steps to disband it but keep the salary schedule established by the commission.

[10] April 10, 2015 [ CHARTER from page 1 ] “The church doesn’t need the building when we need it,� he said. Excel is one of six charter schools scheduled to open across the state for the 2015-2016 school year. The state’s first charter school, First Place Scholars, opened last fall in Seattle. An eighth school is slated to open for the 2016-2017 school year. Washington voters approved the creation of 40 charter schools over a five-year period in the 2012 election. Charter schools are independent public schools operated by non-profit organizations that are allowed more flexibility to be innovative with their educational program and are held accountable for improved student achievement. Charter schools receive federal, state and local funding.

School’s first students selected Sefrioui said school representatives spent much of the fall and winter going door-to-door and volunteering in the community to spread the word about Excel. “The level of interest is higher than what we expected,� he said. The school is able to enroll 88 students in each grade. The school had a lottery on April 3, but all students who had applied were selected, even though there were 96 sixth-grade students. For the seventh grade, 67 students applied. Sefrioui said typically about 60 percent of students selected in the lottery actually enroll. Parents have until April 17 to submit the enrollment paperwork. Sefrioui said if more than 88 students
enroll for sixth grade, he can ask the state Charter Commission to increase the enrollment cap and hire additional teachers. Sefrioui said the school will continue to accept applications. Students applying for seventh grade will be accepted on a first-come, first-served basis, while those applying for sixth grade will be placed on a waiting list. School starts with orientation for sixth grade students on Aug. 18 and seventh grade students on Aug. 19.
Parents, students excited about Excel Shannon Ford said she has followed the charter schools movement for a while and was excited when she heard Excel would open in Kent. Ford said the school’s focus on science, technology, engineering

and math (STEM) appealed to her because her son, Dennis, is interested in computer science. Dennis said he looks forward to attending the school. “It is different because it is a charter school,� he said. “I think it will be fun.� Deanna Lugo heard about Excel when volunteers came to her house last fall. Lugo decided her daughter, Victoria, who will be in sixth grade, needed a change in her education. Lugo said she believes Excel will be able to equip her daughter for success after graduation. “It has the programs so my child can move forward in life,� she said.
School structure Sefrioui said the school is set up to be fully supported by federal, state and local levy funding. He said under Washington charter, the school is not eligible for public funding until it opens to
students, so Excel has funded start-up costs through grants and private funding. Excel received a more than $500,000 Charter Schools Program grant from the U.S. Department of Education, a $400,000 Planning and Implementation grant from Washington Charters and a $25,000 community engagement grant. Excel’s school day will go from 8 a.m. to 4;30 p.m., two hours longer than a traditional public school, Sefrioui said. The school year will be 193 days long as opposed to 180 days in traditional schools. He said the school day will begin and end with 30 minutes of homeroom, with lunch in the middle of the day. Students will focus on math and English in the mornings, and science, physical education and fine arts in the afternoon. He said this set up will help break the day up for students. “When you talk about

Students will take computer science courses each year and it will be also integrated into other parts of the curriculum. Sefrioui said he has hired four of the nine teachers needed for the fall. The filled positions include an orchestra teacher, two math and science teachers and an English language arts teacher. He said the school still needs teachers for math, science, English, physical education and special education. He said as the school grows, it will hire four to five new teachers each year. Sefrioui said after-school programs will be offered based on what students want. He said there seems to be a lot of interest in track and field. For more information, visit excelwa.org.

50th ANNIVERSARY VIETNAM WAR COMMEMORATION LOCAL EVENTS APRIL 12-17
Seattle and Washington State have an unusual role in the Vietnam War Commemoration, a national initiative to thank Vietnam veterans a half century after the United States rapidly escalated its deployment of troops to South Vietnam following the Gulf of Tonkin incident. Many of the troops who returned home were met with disdain rather than with the thanks that veterans of other conflicts received. Joe Galloway, the Vietnam correspondent who authored the book “We Were Soldiers Once... And Young” (adapted into the 2002 film “We Were Soldiers”), is in Seattle for a week of interviews with local Vietnam veterans. He will speak at Seattle Rotary’s noon luncheon April 15 and will be featured at a breakfast interview session at the Columbia Tower Club on April 17. The Vietnam War Commemoration is aimed at spurring events and activities in states, cities and towns around the country to recognize Vietnam veterans and their families for their service and sacrifice. The partners’ program is designed for state and local communities, veterans’ organizations and other nongovernmental organizations to assist in thanking and honoring Vietnam Veterans and their families.

Galloway has been going around the country doing three two-hour interviews a day with Vietnam veterans from across the services spectrum and by now has well over 75 two-hour interviews done, as he explained it, “beginning with Colin Powell and working outward.” Galloway was a Texas boy who became a correspondent for United Press International and, in the battle of Ia Drang that his book and its movie adaptation made famous, he was decorated for heroism on the battlefield, receiving the bronze star for rescuing two wounded soldiers while under fire. He was praised by the late Gen. Norman Schwartzkopf as “the soldiers’ reporter” because of his caring and regard for those whose battles he covered.

Honoring the long history, lore of Odd Fellows GKHS, museum trace fratnernal order’s work, purpose in the valley BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@kentreporter.com
A service-oriented and community-minded society shares a long history and a special place in Kent. The Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF) – a voluntary, altruistic and benevolent fraternal organization – has served Kent and the valley for 130 years. That’s five years before Kent became an incorporated city. That’s four years before Washington reached official statehood. Telling the Order’s quiet role but impactful history is important to today’s IOOF leaders and the Greater Kent Historical Society (GKHS), which honors the group’s work and lore with a temporary exhibit at the Bereiter Museum. The display – replete with photos, momentos, garb, jewels, documents and stories – celebrates the Order’s rich history and its storied hall of many decades, Kent’s Titusville Lodge No. 34, which served the valley for generations since its institution on April 2, 1885. The lodge, which was founded during Washington’s territorial

is honoring the 130-year history of the organization with an exhibit. The Reitans are holding a 1908 photo of Canton Rainier No. 13, a uniformed branch of the IOOF, in front of Titusville Lodge No. 34. MARK KLAAS, Kent Reporter
They are an important part of the valley history,” said Zachary VanTassel, GKHS museum executive director. “(The Order) is about making people better. It’s an organization that makes you live
up to great ideals.” The Reitan family understands this. They have a deep-rooted connection to the fraternal order. “A practicing Odd Fellow teaches you good citizenship,” said Ed
Reitan, 77, a member of the IOOF Grand Lodge of Washington and a member of the Order for 59 years. He and other members were on hand for the exhibit’s open house at the museum last Friday. “For me, back in my day when I was a young guy, it was like a spiritual renewal. “We met weekly,” he recalled. “We would go to the lodge, see your brothers, hear what was going on and find out how everybody was doing. … Then we were going to go out and challenge life for another week.” Reitan’s great-great-grandfather, Robert C. Ramsay, began the family lineage, joining the Order during its infancy back in 1889. Ramsay, who owned 80 acres in Kent back in the day, is recognized today as the name of the short street that weaves its way through Kent Station. Retian’s great-grandfather and father followed suit, representing the Order in many capacities. And like his father, Reitan served as grand master, which is the position his son, C. Allan Reitan, 42, holds today. The tradition is passed on and the Order’s mission continues despite changing times. Although fewer in numbers, the Order still meets regularly in Des Moines [ more ORDER page 22 ]

[ NORRIS from page 14 ] combining disciplines from football and rugby. “In Rex, we couldn’t have found a more qualified person to lead these efforts,” the statement from Serevi read. “He not only knows and has succeeded in both sports for decades but also has the respect of his peers in the coaching world.” During his time at Serevi, Norris will continue to coach the Crusaders. And Kentwood won’t be completely rid of him yet. The statement said he has offered to assist the school in the transition period of finding a new coach. “I have been a part of Kentwood for 20 years,” Norris said. “Whether they like it or not I will always be connected to Kentwood. I have grown up with it.”
During his time with the Conks, aside from the winning record, Norris was part of a number of other honors. He was named the South Puget Sound League coach of the year in 2010 and 2012. The Conquerors have also had 14 all-state players during Norris’ time as head coach. Kentwood won the league title five times and were second the other six years during Norris’ tenure. Apart from his years as head coach, Norris has been teaching at Kentwood for the past 20 years. He will finished out the year as a teacher but his official duties as head coach ended March 18. The Kent School District is currently accepting applications to fill the head coaching position. Kentwood hopes to name the new head coach by the end of April.
Digging up some cost-saving tips
1.
Mulch around your trees and shrubs now to seal in spring moisture. A mulch is like a frosting that sits on top of the soil to keep out weeds and conserve water. Bark dust, wood chips, gravel and composted moo-doo are all types of mulches that can pay dividends later in the summer with less weeds and lower water bills. Mulch is an investment that saves our liquid assets.
2.
Learn how to grow a healthy lawn without chemicals. By aerating your lawn in the spring, using lime to break up clay and
THE CITY OF KENT is looking to hire lifeguards to work at Lake Meridian Park this summer. Applicants must be at least 16 years old and able to work from mid-June through Labor Day in September. The city will hire for about 10 to 15 positions. The hours are up to 40 hours per week with pay from $10.80 to $12.80 per hour depending on experience.

keep down moss and not mowing the grass too short you can skip the expensive weed and feed products in favor of slow release nitrogen lawn foods that will keep the grass thick enough to crowd out weeds. The most important time to fertilize you lawn is in the fall and spring before summer weeds can take over. Mow your grass when the blades are three inches tall and remove just one third of the blade so the lawn grasses are never shorter than two inches. One more thing – leave the grass clippings on the lawn. They will decompose to add free nitrogen to the soil.
THE GARDENER
Homeowners waste a lot of money trying to have a lovely landscape. The biggest waste could be the amount of water used to keep lawns green and plants healthy. Local water districts have been offering free classes and garden seminars to educate their customers on how to use water most efficiently to keep their lawns and landscapes healthy. Here are 5 dirt cheap garden tips that you can bank on:
Marianne Binetti
the faceoff dot at 13:54. His shot appeared to be going wide before taking a soft bounce off a Portland defender. Nic Petan won the game for the Winterhawks at 19:01 with a shot from deep within the faceoff circle. The shot just barely made it over Seattle goaltender Taran Kozun’s glove-side shoulder and bounced off the inside of the crossbar for the goal. Kozun stopped 36 of 41 shots but still came away with the loss. Hill won his fourth game of the series after making 46 saves on 50 shots. Oliver Bjorkstrand scored on a rebound for Portland to make it 1-0. Scott Eansor’s two-on-one breakaway ended with a goal to tie the game at 14:48. The Winterhawks scored again at 2:17 of the second, with Dominic Turgeon picking up the goal this time. Bjorkstrand added a second goal at 3:23. Shea Theodore created on his own and ended up with a fantastic goal to make it 3-2. Theodore carried the puck into the zone on a line change and beat his defender. Millette tipped a Theodore point shot into the back of the net during a Seattle power play at 11:37. The play immediately went to review as to whether Millette had used a high stick to do so but was ruled a good goal, tying the game. EvanWardley’s shift to forward after Portland’s third goal continued to spark the T-Birds, who controlled the pace of the game with physical play up and down the ice. Portland took back the lead with a Miles Koules wraparound goal at 11:25. The goal was unassisted. Eansor scored with 1:40 left in the game to tie it back up and keep the T-Birds’ season alive for a bit longer.
3.
Invest in smaller, less expensive trees and shrubs and watch them grow. Young shrubs in one-gallon pots are easier to transport, easier to transplant and will adjust more quickly to your soil. You’ll also have the joy of watching them grow up and out for years before you have to worry about them
growing too large for their space.

cupboard for dirt cheap pest control. Aphid and white fly can be sprayed with a soapy mix made from a mild dishwashing soap. Scale insects can be controlled by dipping a cotton swab into rubbing alcohol and black spot on roses can be prevented using skim milk painted on the undersides of the foliage.
5.
Recycle and reuse – especially when it comes to containers. Cardboard egg cartons make great seed starting cubbies and recycling galvanized buckets, garbage cans or even wooden packing pallets are all ways to grow more while buying less. One of the best ways to recycle empty water bottles is to use them in the bottom one-third of large pots as drainage material. The empty plastic bottles not only keep the planter lightweight and draining freely but also mean you’ll need less potting soil to fill up your container.

Changing suppliers, demographics and shopping habits have created a perfect storm and the opportunity to walk away. Recognizing today’s challenges to sustaining a family-owned business, Jim and John Rottle concede it is time to move on. Rottles Clothing and Shoes – the unmistakable, flag-bearing business on Auburn’s Main Street since 1939 and one of the largest independent clothing stores in the Green River Valley – officially closes June 27. The twin brothers plan to retire. Third-generation proprietors, they have worked, co-owned and co-managed the apparel giant for a combined 75 years. They have accepted the impending closure with mixed emotions. “It no longer makes financial sense for us to continue to do business the way we have done business,� Jim said while
preparing the store for the 11½-week liquidation sale that began Thursday. “Our core customer, the baby boomer, they buy less clothes. “If you think about it, there are no stores like us within, who knows, 100 miles or more,â€? he added. “Large, specialty stores like us have gone by the wayside, primarily because of, A, competition, and B, ownership has no succession plan, so they just shuttered their doors.â€? GA Wright Sales, a Denver marketing company, is running the store-closing event, which includes the total liquidation of inventory and fixtures. The Rottle family hopes to sell or lease the two-story, 15,000-squarefoot building to a “viable retail businessâ€? to serve the community and a growing residential population downtown. The store has a staff of 15 part- and full-time employees. Financially, the brothers said, Rottles was doing OK, but, as Jim admitted, “It’s not worth what we get out of it.â€?

Rainier Youth Choirs delight audience; season finale announced FOR THE REPORTER
A packed audience enjoyed choral music performed by more than 100 local youth during the Rainier Youth Choirs’ March 15 concert. The eclectic event featured two RYC singers who won their Green River Region solo contests.

[ ROTTLES from page 17 ] According to the brothers, Rottles and other stores of its kind are struggling to keep up with the larger, corporate, chain-heavy competition. The retail landscape of brick-andmortar retailing has changed dramatically, they said, with the advent of Internet sales, big box stores and a general downgrading of dress codes. “The fashion culture has changed,� Jim said. “Most of our key manu-

to conduct business and spread goodwill. “One of the challenges members of my generation face today – with social media and modern technology – is that people look at a lodge as rather antique or antiquated,� said C. Allan Reitan, a fifthgeneration member of the Order. “They don’t fully understand the fun and camaraderie we have of just being together with people, sharing a common interest and a common sense of goals.� Since the beginning, the Order was about duty and giving something back. Membership included royalty. It also was one of the first fraternities in the country to include both men and women. The fellowship began in 18th century England before coming to the U.S. and Canada. Westward expansion brought it the Northwest and Washington, where Olympia instituted the territory’s first lodge in 1855. Kent’s first five mayors were members of Titusville Lodge No. 34, which still stands today on Meeker Street. As mayors, it was part of their civic duty to foster leadership and development, helping Kent become a thriving farming community. Nearly half of Kent’s mayors were Fellow brothers.

It historically supported orphanages. It presently maintains a senior living community in Walla Walla. The fellowship also supports many groups, notably youth and elderly, and charitable causes in the community. Mindful of those high and exalted virtues indicated in its three-link motto – friendship, love and truth – the Order teaches that “a man cannot be an Odd Fellow in spirit and in truth unless he is grateful to his creator, faithful to his country and fraternal to his fellow man.� Friendship, love and truth are basic guidelines worth following in daily life. Such an approach has served Ed Reitan well. “As long as you have those three things, you have the strength to get through life,� he said. To learn more, visit www. ioofwa.org.
