What takes almost a month to happen in North Bend happens almost daily in Seattle. That’s probably no surprise, but the same is true for Renton, Everett and Auburn — it can happen overnight in areas in each of these cities. It’s graffiti, specifically, graffiti that lands on freshly painted abutments, walls or any other surface that is visible to the public, plus some that aren’t. “It’s on the bridges, it’s on anything that’s concrete, it’s on the signs,” said Brian, who asked to omit his last name, both out of concern for reprisals and because he’d admitted to doing something illegal, technically.

A Bridge Tender uses special paint, which matches the concrete of a bridge abutment, tocover up graffiti. The state’s Department of Transportation dedicates four full-time staffers and a budget of nearly $400,000 annually to fight graffiti on state-owned property. “People can be cited for The North Bend man is he did about a month ago, unlikely to get arrested for but the letter of the law dic- trespassing,” said Harmony painting over offensive graf- tates that he was trespassing Weinberg, spokesperson for fiti on an overpass on the on state property when he Snoqualmie Valley Trail as did it.

Two men and two women in a car with an infant were arrested early Monday after an incident that began in North Bend and ended on a dead-end road following a chase down the freeway and through Issaquah. Snoqualmie Police Officer Richard Cary was patrolling at the North Bend Premium Outlets mall at 11:30 p.m. Sunday, when he noticed a suspicious vehicle. He began following the vehicle, to monitor it, according to city of Snoqualmie spokesperson Joan Pliego, in a press release Monday morning. The vehicle suddenly sped off toward the Interstate-90 on ramp, without any sort of signal from the police, Pliego said, and took the westbound onramp at high speed. Cary pursued and called in assistance from King County’s Guardian 1 helicopter, as well as the county’s tactical (SWAT) team. SEE CHASE, 3

PORTRAIT FROM 1
I asked my friend Andrew Farley to model. He was in a college improv troupe with me.
This year’s competition drew a recordbreaking 2,748 entries by artists from 92 countries around the world. In its 36th year at the National Portrait Gallery, the competition offers a first prize of £30,000, making it the most prestigious international portrait painting competition of its kind. Orcutt is the daughter of Steve and Joy Orcutt. She graduated in May from Gordon College, in Wenham, Mass., with a degree in painting. Following her trip to London, she will return to the Valley to put on her annual Joyful Summer Art Camp (http:// beckyorcutt.com/page22.html) with her sister, Amanda, and mother. Before the portrait show opening ceremony, Orcutt answered a few questions about her work by e-mail with the Record.
Without Andrew’s face, what makes this painting a portrait?
Tell us about your painting work. Do you have a favorite medium, favorite subject? I have been painting from a young age, but drew a lot too. I began primarily painting more than anything else in high school. Oil paint is my favorite medium. My favorite subject is the figure, but I enjoy painting it in relation to other objects or spaces.
How did you create the painting selected for the Portrait Award show? What inspired it, and what made you enter the competition? I painted the piece in the fall as a beginning for my senior art thesis painting project. I had the image in my head for a while before I painted it. It came from an exploration of the conflicting realities of comedy and tragedy in life. I was trying to capture something of the absurdity of this, of what daily life can often bring, a sense of humor, and also despair, and not quite knowing which to embrace. My professor, Jean Sbarra Jones suggested entering the competition.
Although his face is turned away, it can still be considered a portrait because portraits capture a likeness of someone, and that doesn’t just have to be through the face, but in something about their essence, their being. Many elements of the painting seem like Andrew to me, the patterned sweater that he often wears, his feet turned in, the spinning top toy. He is very funny, and has a playful personality, that sometimes seems at odds with the world.
Tell us about your work. My website shows personal work that is really just about what I am interested to make at the time. I’m not trying to make it come across a particular way, people could see a lot of different things. My most recent work came from an interest in comedy and absurdist theatre.
How did your Joyful Summer art camp come about? The art camps my sister and I run are all about joy. Art has brought us both joy, and we want to encourage a love for art that we found as children. My mom’s name is Joy. She is a Kindergarten teacher, and I have so much admiration and respect for her. She has inspired me over the years with her amazing teaching ability, genuine care and dedication to her students. She also taught us so much and always encouraged us to create. I am so grateful for her and my dad’s support always in following my dream to paint, and so the camp has been a sort of way to share a love for learning and art that my parents shared with us.
What’s next for you? I will be moving to New York City in August to study painting in graduate school at the New York Academy of Art.
SUMMER IS HERE! WE CAN HELP YOU GET THE JOB DONE!

GRAFFITI FROM 1 the Washington Department of Transportation, which owns the overpass. Just like the vandals who put the graffiti there in the first place, well-intentioned people like Brian are crossing a line, onto private property, even if they’re trying to help. “We don’t want average citizens out there, because it’s just not safe,” explained Weinberg. Neither is the graffiti itself, she adds, because it can be a distraction to drivers. So WSDOT has a small staff of Bridge Tenders, four full-time staffers who go out at least twice a week to paint over graffiti. “They’ll get to it within two days,” said Weinberg, and sooner if it’s “offensive or disturbing to the traveling public… It’s pretty much a rare day that they’re out doing their work and have nothing to clean up.” Most of the cleanup happens in the areas that produce the complaints, the bigger cities in our corridor, south to Pierce County and north to the Canadian border. Smaller cities, like those in the Valley, don’t generate a lot of reports. “We mainly see graffiti on the I-5 corridor between Renton and Seattle,” said Weinberg, with a couple of “hot spots” near Auburn and Everett. Brian, though, sees graffiti throughout the Valley. “I didn’t think DOT even came out for (graffiti),” he said, since he’s been complaining about it for two years. He finds tags on most of his running routes, especially on the less-public sides of some structures. He said he has contacted various law enforcement agencies and city officials, as well as WSDOT. Most of the complaints WSDOT receives come through its online graffiti reporting system, Weinberg said, adding that she was surprised that Brian had not seen any kind of response. He didn’t know about the website (www.wsdot.wa.gov/Northwest/ ReportGraffiti.htm) until after he had done his own, only partly successful cleanup of the overpass. “Kind of difficult to match the correct color of a concrete wall… but at least it’s covered,” he wrote in an e-mail message

Above: A North Bend man attempted to cover up some of the graffiti that concerned him along the Snoqualmie Valley Trail. The tags included possible gang signs and “there were a couple of F-bombs in there, too,” he said. Not all of it was concerning, he said, like a heart symbol, so he left that as it was. Below: Damage caused in the Snoqualmie Community Park restrooms by a group of teens in 2012.
CHASE FROM 1 When he attempted to stop the vehicle, a passenger in the front seat fired multiple rounds at the squad car. Cary was not injured and there was no damage to the car. He continued pursuing the suspect car through downtown Issaquah. The pursuit ended near the May Valley and Issaquah-Hobart Roads on a dead-end rural residential road, with Snoqualmie Police and county law enforcement. All four suspects were taken into custody without incident. The driver of the vehicle, a 24-year-old woman and the mother of the infant, was booked into King County Jail and faces charges of rendering criminal assistance and eluding an officer. The passenger who shot at the police patrol car is a 20-year-old and the father of the child. He was also booked into King County Jail and will be charged with assault with a deadly weapon, drug and weapons violations and reckless endangerment of an infant. The man and woman in the back seat, both 19, will be charged with obstruction. The man went to King County Jail and the woman, to Issaquah. The baby, a 9-month-old boy, was put under the care of Child Protection Services and was released to his maternal grandmother Monday afternoon. The Snoqualmie Police Department is investigating the incident, with the assistance of the Coalition Major Crimes Task Force.
with before-and-after photos of a whitesplotched concrete wall. Finding paint to match is not a problem for WSDOT, but mismatched paint is actually one of the organization’s big concerns with people doing their own cleanup. “Driver safety is the number-one thing,” Weinberg said, “and if you’re seeing something that’s not normally there, you’re going to look at it.” Their reasons may differ but Brian and Weinberg definitely agree on the need to cover up graffiti. “It’s an eyesore,” said Brian. “If you let it continue, it will just expand.” And if it’s a sign of gang activity, which he wonders about, but doesn’t really know, he says, “it needs to be nipped in the bud.” Brian added that he rarely sees suspicious people in the areas that he finds graffiti, and “I don’t really think it’s the homeless people that are doing this.” Many Valley cities have struggled with graffiti problems in recent years, but there is little evidence that past tagging incidents have been gang-related. North Bend and Snoqualmie have both experiences a few sprees of graffiti, mostly attributed to teens. In 2012, North Bend established code to declare graffiti a public nuisance and require all instances of it to be covered up within 48 hours. Two years ago, Fall City experienced a rash of tagging that covered public and private property and at least one car. The incident sparked discussions about gang activity in the community and proposals to create more murals, which are rarely tagged. The King County Sheriff ’s office later arrested a Fall City teen in connection with at least 15 of the incidents, and determined that his tags were not signs of gang activity, but signs of how easy it is for someone to look up gang signs online. Weinberg did not comment on the possibility of graffiti being gang-related, but re-emphasized the safety issues associated with graffiti, and with covering it up. “It’s our job to maintain our structures and keep them in the best condition that we can,” she said. “For instance, some of these people who like to put graffiti on state structures are (tagging in) places we would never send our workers in … without a harness.”
In Brief North Bend runs parks survey
Residents and businesses in North Bend, as well as outdoor enthusiasts, are asked to participate in a confidential online survey about North Bend parks. The city is currently updating the parks element of its comprehensive plan and will use the survey to gather public input on local parks and amenities. The feedback will help the parks commission and city staff better understand the needs of the community and help shape the future of local parks and area open space. The survey will include ample opportunity for making written comments. Find a link to the survey in the News & Highlights section of the city website at http://northbendwa.gov. The survey will be open through July 8. To request a paper copy of the survey, send e-mail to soppedal@northbendwa.gov or call
the City Clerk at (425) 888-7627. For questions related to the survey, contact Associate Planner Lynn Fredenburg at lfredenburg@ northbendwa.gov or (425) 888-7646.
Access road from Lake Alice to Snoqualmie Ridge reopens To address the temporary closure of Lake Alice Road for repairs this summer, King County Roads will re-open an access road from Lake Alice Road Southeast to Southeast Sorenson Street on Snoqualmie Ridge. The access road opened June 22, and will remain open through Aug. 28, or until the project is completed. Snoqualmie’s Public Works Department will monitor the project within the Snoqualmie Ridge neighborhoods in collaboration with King County, which will manage the project in the Lake Alice neighborhood.
The detour route, used during an earlier phase of the project in 2013, starts at Lake Alice Road, goes through the access road, onto Southeast Sorenson, then left onto Southeast Carmichael Street, and right onto Douglas Avenue Southeast to reach Snoqualmie Parkway. The detour route map is posted on the King County website at http://bit.ly/ LakeAliceProjectDetour. Lake Alice Road is the sole access to approximately 200 homes in the Lake Alice neighborhood. The temporary closure of the road is necessary to replace a 48-inch-diameter culvert, located 35 feet below the road surface. The culvert has rusted through and could collapse, which would make the road completely impassable. Send project questions to Tristan Cook, County Community Relations Planner, at tristan.cook@kingcounty.gov or call (206) 447-3842. Send traffic management questions to Kamal Mahmoud, Snoqualmie Project Engineer, at kmahmoud@ci.snoqualmie.wa.us, call (425) 831-4919 (office) or (425) 449-6350 (cell).

PAST
This week in Snoqualme Valley history Thurs., June 28, 1990
Whispering footsteps Fire dangers, threats to people and animals, seem more real after experiencing drought conditions on barefoot travels
F
ire officials give out the numbers all day — record numbers of fireworks permits sold in Washington this year, 432 incidents of traumatic injury and fire damage directly attritibuted to fireworks on or near July 4, 2014, 306 wildfires started already this year. People talk about the high risk of fire in the coffee shops, on the radio, and in online community groups. I’ve been hearing about it several times a day for the past month, and noticing the August-level rivers everywhere I drive. I had started to develop some vague fears about fires, not just on the Fourth, but for the entire summer. They got a huge boost on Friday, when I took off for a long weekend on Whidbey Island. I stayed at a place in the woods, near the water, and I went barefoot a lot, since the area was mostly dirt trails and grassy
fields. I discovered that pine needles, if they’ve dried out long enough, are surprisingly soft to walk on. But the grass really got my attention. It was uniformly straw-colored and brittle in a lot of places, and it didn’t crackle under my feet, like snow or dry leaves; it just got crushed. My footsteps whispered. That’s when I really started to get scared. To be fair, it’s not just the fireworks I’m worried about. The wildfire that closed off Mount Si Road in July, 2013, was declared to be humancaused. The guess I’ve heard most often is that a hiker didn’t properly dispose of his or her lit cigarette butt, but dropped it on a trail. That fire was, luckily, contained to mainly DNR lands and no one got hurt. And my experience with it was kind of exciting. I “toured” the fire, or at least the parts that had been mostly extinguished. I saw how it affected wildlife, learned what an impressive the DNR system has in place for fighting these fires, and I got a photo of a burning rock. Going into the fire area, I had a strong craving for bacon, but it was gone by the time I was out.
Where to find fireworks shows? One of the closest, and often best fireworks shows put on for Independence Day is right in the Valley, in Carnation. Carnation’s fireworks show starts at dusk. The best viewing area is in Tolt-MacDonald Park, which has free parking and festivities going on all day. Visitors are advised to avoid the area just north of the park, where the fireworks are expected to fall after discharge. Area shows include: Carnation: Fireworks start at dusk at Tolt-MacDonald Park,31023 N.E. 40th St., Carnation.
Fireworks are on my mind right now, because officials are asking people to go to shows instead of setting off their own, but also because I’ve been hearing them in my neighborhood for about two weeks. That’s typical for this time of year, and we all know it’s not the adults who set them off early. I really have to give my neighborhood’s parents a pat on the back, though, because there haven’t been nearly as many early igniters as in past years. It’s a good sign. People are aware and being cautious. But that is always true. The number of responsible people who annually indulge their pyrotechnics obsessions safely — on pavement, away from trees and grass, with water hoses and buckets nearby — is probably five or six times as high as the number of people who have decided they just won’t make a mistake. It takes only one mistake, though. This year, I am going to take my own precautions. Hose down the roof — it’s metal, but there is moss — and the yard, then watch the fireworks and try not to worry.
Sammamish: Fireworks will be in Sammamish Commons Park, 801 228th Ave. S.E., Sammamish at dusk. Bellevue: Fireworks start at 10:05 at Bellevue Downtown Park, 10201 N.E. 4th St. Bellevue, with musical accompaniment from the Bellevue Youth Symphony Orchestra. Kirkland: Fireworks start at 10:15 p.m. at Marina Park, 25 Lakeshore Plaza Dr., Kirkland. Renton: A 20-minute fireworks show starts at 10 p.m. at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park, 1201 Lake Washington Blvd. N. Seattle: Fireworks will be set off at Gasworks Park, 2101 N. Northlake Way, and at Cal Anderson Park on Capitol Hill, 1635 11th Ave.
• There will be more oldgrowth forest stands set aside in the Northwest as a result of Friday’s listing of the spotted owl as a “threatened” species. Local sources believe the effect will not be devastating in the Valley. Very little of the harvesting done by local loggers involves the “ancient forest,” because there is little left in this part of the state. Dedication ceremonies for the Farm Shed project will take place June 29 at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum grounds. This ribbon-cutting marks the completion of some 10 years of planning and construction of an addition to the original Farm Shed, more than tripling its size. The construction was the museum’s centennial project and it will be a lasting legacy of the 1989 centennial in our valley. • State and federal wildlife biologists have located a second gray wolf den in Washington while conducting a howling survey in the Okanogan National Forest. They heard responses from two gray wolf pups June 18.
Thurs., July 1, 1965 • Mrs. Mary Brickey and her daughter, Jan, 9, representing the NW Sled Dog Association, won honors in the cart races at Taft, Ore., June 20. While snow is generally essential for sled dog racing, any “musher” can tell you wheels are used to train the dogs, so a cart is not too far afield. • Michael K Berkebile, 20, of North Bend, received lacerations above the eye when he was in a one-car accident one-half mile east of Snoqualmie on the Stone Quarry Road June 26. Trooper Leaf reports Berkebile was westbound at high speed when he went around a curve in a broadside skid, left the road and crossed the railroad tracks, striking a sign, then traveled back across the road and hit a stump. Damage to his ‘55 Ford coach was estimated at $250.

Officials project Snoqualmie infrastructure projects to be done in a month Snoqualmie officials said Wednesday that the city’s downtown infrastructure and improvement project is in final stages with a status of “substantial completion” expected by July 24. Intermittent one-lane road closures will continue Monday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. through project completion. Motorists may experience delays and are encouraged to use alternate routes. Road paving work along Railroad Avenue Southeast was scheduled to be completed on June 24. Work that was expected to be complete by July 17 included: boardwalk and information kiosk installation; sidewalk installation; energizing electrical system and street
Be safe, responsible with fireworks Last year, there were 432 fireworks related injuries and/or fires reported to the Office of the State Fire Marshal by fire departments and hospital emergency rooms. With retail fireworks stands opening across the state since June 28 and record numbers of fireworks sales permit applications reported this year in the state, this explosive event demonstrates just how important it is to celebrate safely. Always remember to use the three B’sy: Be Prepared Have water nearby. Put pets indoors. Purchase only legal fireworks. Be Safe Only adults should light fireworks Never throw fireworks, and never hold them in your hand. Light fireworks one at a time, move away quickly, and keep at a safe distance until the display is finished. Use fireworks outdoors, away from anything that can burn. Be Responsible Clean up fireworks debris.
Soak all fireworks remnants in a bucket of water. If a device does not light or fire, an adult should wait at least 15 minutes and approach it carefully. Keep all unused fireworks, matches, and lighters out of sight and reach of children. Don’t take any chances, be sure the fireworks you purchase are legal to possess and discharge. Know the dates and times fireworks are allowed in your community. Stay away from high powered illegal explosive devices. Do not alter fireworks or make any type of homemade device. The damage they cause can be devastating and life altering. For more information visit www.wsp.wa.gov/fire/ fireworks.htm. North Bend: Fireworks can be discharged in North Bend only on July 4, between 9 a.m. and midnight. Snoqualmie: Fireworks can be discharged in Snoqualmie only on July 4, between 6 p.m. and midnight. Effective Jan. 1, 2016, all aerial fireworks will also be banned in the city. Fall City: Fireworks can be discharged in Fall City (and all unincorporated King County) only on July 4, between 9 a.m. and midnight. Carnation: Discharge of any fireworks is illegal, yearround. Duvall: Fireworks can be discharged in Duvall only on July 4, between 9 a.m. and midnight.

On the Scanner Snoqualmie Police Dept. SATURDAY, JUNE 13 FIREWORKS: At 7:13 p.m., police received a noise complaint at S.E. Kaleetan Loop and Denny Peak Drive S.E., Snoqualmie. The caller said the noise sounded like fireworks, but it had stopped by the time he called. Police said they would patrol the area and asked the caller to call back if it happened again.
TUESDAY, JUNE 16 RACCOON: At midnight, a caller reported the alarm was going off in his car, parked in his driveway in the 6000 block of Crest View Avenue, Snoqualmie. The caller said a light was on inside the car, but he couldn’t see anyone near it. Police investigated and determined that the car’s trunk light had been turned on when a raccoon was checking out the car and set off the alarm.
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 17 NOISE: At 9:39 p.m., a caller in the 100 block of East Sixth Street called police about a loud engine running at a neighbor’s house. Police contacted the subject, who was pressurewashing his house, with a very loud pressure washer. The man turned off the engine and said he would do the work earlier in the day.
THURSDAY, JUNE 18 FOUND BIKE: At 9:43 a.m., an officer on patrol on Rhododendron Drive S.E., Snoqualmie, located a stolen bicycle and recovered it.
SATURDAY, JUNE 20 SPRINKLER: At 12:18 a.m., a caller in the 6500 block of East Crest View Loop, Snoqualmie, reported suspicious noises and a possible water leak in their new home. Police investigated and determined it was the home’s sprinkler system.
FRIDAY, JUNE 19 MISCHIEF: At 6:48 p.m., a caller reported that his wife’s car had been scratched with a key while it was parked at the North Bend Library earlier in the day. There were no suspects.
Carnation Police Dept. SUNDAY, JUNE 21 STORAGE SQUATTERS: At 5:50 a.m., a caller told police that someone had broken into her storage unit, in the 4300 block of Tolt Avenue. She found the unit unlocked, with the door partly open and a car parked in front of it. Two people, known to police, were sleeping inside the storage unit. They said their
travel trailer had been impounded by Monroe Police.
Snoqualmie Fire Dept. FRIDAY, JUNE 19 SUSPICIOUS FIRE: At 3:13 p.m., Snoqualmie firefighters were dispatched to the Stillwater Bog, behind Rhododendron Drive, for a burning deck attached to a home. The crew arrived to find that the found second-floor boards of a treated deck had been charred and burned through. Neighbors near the bog put the fire out with a bucket. They also said that there had been a group of kids riding off on their bikes as they came up to the deck. Crews made sure the boards were completely cool. They found many books of matches under the deck, too, and notified Snoqualmie Police, who are investigating.
SATURDAY, JUNE 20 PARK FIRE: At 9:58 a.m., Snoqualmie firefighters responded to a park in the Snoqualmie Ridge area, where a small smoldering bark fire had been reported. The fire was extinguished and Snoqualmie Police started an investigation.
SUNDAY, JUNE 21 BARK FIRE: At 2:47 p.m., Snoqualmie firefighters were checking fire hydrants, when a resident flagged them down and reported a bark fire behind one of the buildings at the Venture Commerce Center. Firefighters found a small, smoldering bark fire, about five feet in diameter, in the garden area away from the building. It appeared that someone tried to extinguish with a fire extinguisher, but was unsuccessful. The area still had quite a bit of heat coming from it, so they applied water to the bark until the ground was saturated. Firefighters noticed several cigarette butts near the fire, but not close enough to have been the cause. Several rhododendron bushes near some dry grass were damaged during the fire. It appeared to be a natural bark fire with no obvious cause. There was no property or structure loss.
MONDAY, JUNE 22 SMOKE: At 11:22 a.m., Snoqualmie firefighters were dispatched to the 7400 block of Lake Alice Road for a smell of smoke and chemicals in the area. The crew arrived in the area and spoke to a nearby neighbor but firefighters were unable to locate any smoke or foul smells. MEDICAL AID: In addition, Snoqualmie EMTs responded to six medical aid calls, bringing the total number to date to 577.

School’s out Valley schools celebrate last day of classes June 17
Snoqualmie Valley School District schools wished students and staff a happy summer Wednesday, June 17, with send-off celebrations throughout the district. At Fall City Elementary, though, there were mixed emotions. “I’ve been crying all morning,” admitted Wendy Stone, while she and husband Chris waited for their middle-school-bound daughter Claire to come out for a celebratory ride on Dad’s motorcycle. “This school has been very important to us,” she added, since her father had taught there, she’d attended the school herself and later, returned there to teach. Her last moments at the school were spent closely observing how secure Claire’s helmet was, and then wishing father and daughter a happy ride. Inside, students danced out of their classrooms as the bell rang, and one girl proudly shouted “I’m a fourth grader!” Then it was time for Otter Pops, big sunglasses, and a short show-and-tell of Glossary, the bearded dragon, who was going home with the Donaldson family for the summer.

Elementary tudents learn about wetlands from high schoolers
Mount Si High School AP science students and Snoqualmie Elementary School participated in a joint project to restore the Kimball Creek slough between the two school buildings. The program, funded by a Snoqualmie Valley Schools Foundation grant, involved the students removing invasive weeds, using gloves and tools purchased with the grant. High School students led fifth graders through a series of ecology focused stations highlighting the importance of wetlands as habitat and then worked together to remove invasive blackberry and ivy in the slough. Participating teachers included Shannon Wenman, who teaches AP Environmental Science at the high school, Andrew Rapin, who teaches AP Biology at the high school, and Danette Hruska, who teaches fifth-grade science.

n 1980, an African American woman sat on an old dilapidated couch, shaking, as tears flooded her eyes. Legs covered with bruises, terrified, she held her infant daughter, trying to comfort her. Nearby, her four year old was curled in a fetal position, moaning softly. The floor was littered with a broken lamp, patches of hair, torn clothing, and crushed cereal. All grim reminders of her husband’s violence a few minutes ago. He was a 7 ft. 2” tall minister. She remembered him putting his face close, his fists tight, as he knocked her to the ground. Her belly tightened with pain, fear, and dread for what he would do next. He yelled, “You little whore! Don’t you know I’m head of the house, and you have to do what I tell you! If you ever try to leave me again, I’ll kill us all!”

Riverview teachers union hosts forum on state education funding On May 26, the Riverview Education Association hosted a forum at the Riverview Educational Service Center focused on concerns with the state legislature and public school funding. Panelists included Marc Hillestad, teacher and REA President; Christina Malm, political liaison and incoming president, and Kory Loresch, president of the Riverview Public School Employees organization. Also presenting were Anthony Smith, superintendent of the school district and Bill Adamo, director of business and operations. Hillestad said the Riverview School District’s mission is to “educate children.” He added that in looking at the increasing number of districts walking out in protest of inadequate educational funding proposals from the state legislature, the REA decided to not walk out but attempt to “educate” the community regarding state funding concerns. Malm reiterated to participants that “...just because we are not walking out, does not mean we are happy.” She said Washington currently ranks 47th in the nation in average class size and 42nd in the nation regarding per-pupil spending. Adamo discussed and clarified how levies are used at the district level and how they are part of the fabric of funding education. He expressed great concern about proposals to change the manner with which levy dollars are to be utilized. At the heart of Adamo’s comments is Senate

Marc Hillestad, teacher and REA President, leads an education forum in May that Riverview School District teachers held instead of a walkout. Bill 6109, which would transfer about $1 billion in voter-approved local school district levy funds to the state budget, where it would be used to pay for McCleary. The bill is controversial in that it allocates using funds in ways not approved by local voters when they approved their local levies. Smith spoke about the school board’s positions on these issues and the timeline of the McCleary v. State of Washington court case, a lawsuit initially filed in 2007 by two families
who asked the courts to order the state to fully fund education for all Washington children. After the lawsuit was filed in 2007 failed at trial, the state appealed the decision. In 2010, the state Supreme Court ruled in favor of the plaintiffs and later found the state was in contempt of court for failing to fund education appropriately. Additionally, they retained jurisdiction over the case until 2018 to ensure the legislature met the court’s mandate. Speaking on behalf of the school board, Smith shared their requests of the legislature: Ensure competitive public school employee compensation; fund additional facilities; provide funding for increased training related to evaluation reforms; fully fund legislative requirements and impose no new mandates PSE president Kory Loresch reported that the state pays for 49 percent of the salaries and benefits of classified employees, with Riverview paying 51 percent through local taxes. Hillestad concluded the forum with additional information. He mentioned the six-year absence of a cost-of-living adjustment) for teachers in the state, adding that for teachers who complete 16 years of teaching in the state, their salary tops out and can never increase unless increases are locally bargained. Without those increases, actual spending power for teachers has been calculated to have decreased by 13 percent over the last six years. The REA concluded the forum by reiterating three key messages for lawmakers: Live up to the requirements of the McCleary ruling; reduce class size across all grades; and leave levy money in local schools with local control. The forum ended with a request that attendees contact their representatives and senators and let them know that teachers and schools have the community’s support.
Sometime later, she heard the sound of the front door slamming. Temporarily alone, she called a 24-hour Domestic Violence Hotline, and found connections to a network of advocates who provided the tools and resources she needed to become a survivor. Three very strong and brave African American senior women of faith were also always there to encourage and support her. The great combination of helpers was a key ingredient in rediscovering her own voice, and learning that she deserved to be treated right. I was that woman, and you too can make a difference in your own life, as well as others. We all have a responsibility to take action to end violence, so that no one has to suffer the pain of abuse ever again.

A classic: Grand Parade starts at 11 What’s better than an old-fashioned parade to celebrate the Fourth of July? Nothing, if you’re in Carnation, where all ages and cultures come together to celebrate the nation, with Chinese acrobatics, linedancing demos and horses of course. The theme for this year’s Fourth of July celebration is “Honor Our Veterans.” The parade gets started with the traditional children’s parade, at 10:30 a.m. down Tolt Avenue. All children are welcome, and are asked to meet across from QFC for the start of the parade. Children march in opposite direction of the main parade, bikes up front so they don’t bump into anybody. The main parade follows at 11 a.m. Each year, dozens of entries take part, with prizes on the line for the best in floats, horse entries, musical, cheer, vintage, political, and so on. Watch for the vintage cars heading for Tolt-MacDonald Park and the CarNation Customs & Classics car show starting after the parade. Grand Marshal Al Rush will judge parade and select one special winner of the Grand Marshal Award. Sign-in starts at 8 a.m. and entrants need to arrive by 10 a.m. The start area is at Tolt Congregational Church. Typically, some 40 entries take part, and the parade lasts about an hour. Arrive early for a good spot.
It’s his way

Carnation Grand Marshal Al Rush has a story to tell By CAROL LADWIG Editor
Al Rush has been the independent sort his whole life. It’s clear from the stories of his childhood in Massachusetts, where he worked as a pin-setter in a bowling alley and sometimes hitched a ride to Boston to see the Red Sox play — and from his present-day lifestyle of doing what he wants, when he wants, but regularly volunteering at Carnation’s Hopelink food bank, just because — that he’s always done things his own way. So it’s a good thing that the Carnation Fourth of July parade grand marshal has only a few official responsibilities. “I just have to sit in the car and look pretty,” said the 91-year-old Carnation man who will lead the parade for Carnation’s Fourth of July celebration Saturday. Then he laughs and asks, “I don’t have to make a speech, do I?” No speech is required, but if one was, it would certainly be worth a listen. Rush has been through some of the biggest moments in this country’s history, and was barely into his teen years for some of them.

Al Rush today, left, and during his service in the Navy, right. Take his early adventures in hitchhiking, sometimes to get to work, and sometimes to get to a Red Sox game, 40 miles away. It held few terrors for Rush, then a red-headed teenager, to get into a car with a stranger, but he said “the most dangerous ride I ever had in my life was on a motorcycle!” His hitchhiking was even less scary for his parents. “I just told them I was going to the ball game,” he recalled. “They didn’t know I was hitchhiking.” He loved baseball, and used to listen to the Red Sox games on the radio when he couldn’t catch a ride to see them in person. With his gift for understatement, Rush said, “They had a solid team… the first baseman was Jimmie Foxx — they called him double X — and there was Bobby Doerr, Dom DiMaggio — he’s Joe’s brother — and Ted Williams.” He laughs at the thought that he

The runners with the lowest combined finishing time in all three races, in both the men’s
got to see some of the most famous players in the world, and at the idea of asking for their autographs. “No, we didn’t do that, back then,” he said. As a young man, Rush joined the Navy, like his father. He served in the Pacific theatre during the Korean War, for a total of almost four years. When he came back to the U.S., it was to Seattle, where he met his first wife, June, who completely changed his life. “We met at a dance in Seattle, that she went to with her aunt and uncle,” he said. “She was a nice redhead.” When he was released from the Navy, he went home to tell his parents he was moving to Seattle, and marrying June, then he did. They were married for 20 years, and had six children together. In 1963, the family relocated to Carnation After the Navy, Rush worked for Weyerhaueser, in the planer mill. It
wasn’t so dangerous, he said, “You just had to watch what you were doing.” He also worked the pool tables at Pete’s Club, where he belonged to a league for about 20 years. He’d gotten pretty good at pool since his youth at the bowling alley and pool hall, he said, but gave it up when he decided it was time to quit smoking and drinking — all on the same day. He sounds a little wistful when he talks about pool, but says he doesn’t miss smoking or drinking, now. “It was kind of rough for a while,” he admitted. “They said I couldn’t do it, all at once, but I proved them all wrong.” After June’s death in the ‘60s, he left Weyerhaueser to take care of his children, still very young. He returned to work in the ‘70s and retired in the mid’80s, but by then, he’d already found a way to fill his days, volunteering at the food bank. He’d also remarried, and “the wife went to the food bank, because she wanted to volunteer, so I went with her.” Three decades later, that’s all the explanation he needs, or offers, for his long commitment to the food bank. Rush also keeps pretty busy with trips to the Sno-Valley Senior Center, “about every day,” and visiting his son, Bill, in Carnation, to “goof around.” He wasn’t so sure about accepting the title of grand marshal, he said, “but everybody said you’ve got to do it,” so he did, but in his own way. Rush leads the grand parade for the Carnation Fourth of July Saturday, at 11 a.m.

Car show comeback
Find fuel for your Fourth fun at Senior Center
Volunteers give traditional show a new name and location, plus pin-up girls By CAROL LADWIG Editor
Carnation’s “annual” car show has had a checkered past, in that it has struggled with locations in previous years. Also, there was no show last year. “Steve and Doreen Norton started Hot Rods & Harleys in the late ‘90s, said Carnation Fourth chairperson Kim Lisk. Under their guidance, the show went on every year, and it hit a bump when the couple stepped down from running it in 2010, but kept going. “But last year, we couldn’t find anyone to chair it.” So the Hot Rods & Harleys show didn’t happen, to the disappointment of this year’s show organizers, Trent Whatley of Sammamish and Tommy Vondra of Carnation. Both volunteered, separately, to put on the car show after finding out it was cancelled and in the course of organizing the event, they’ve changed the name and location, and gave a nod to show founder Steve Norton, who died May 7. They also made a daring decision — to have a pin-up girl competition as part of the event. Whatley recently took the time to answer a few questions about the show and why it’s important. He talks about pin-up girls, too.

Whats the new name? CarNation American Customs & Classics Show.
Why is it important to you to have the car show as part of the event? I have participated in the car show in past years and knew they were looking for someone to take over the show last year but figured a Carnation local would take on the role. I went to register for the show last year only to find that they had not found a volunteer for the job and had cancelled the show, what a disappointment. So I decided I would vol-

Where is the show going to be held? The new location at the Tolt-MacDonald Park I think will prove to be an even better and larger location for the car show.
By moving the show to the park and starting at noon it will allow the cars and bikes to be an actual part of the parade as well as a welcomed part of the afternoon activities including live music, food and other family events leading up to the main event, the fireworks show. King County Parks were very receptive to the new location and have been extremely helpful in making this transition.
What about the pinup girl contest? Well what would an allout family event be without a little home-town participation? I really wanted to do something fun with the

(The competition has a family-friendly emphasis, and participants must be 18 or older. See full rules at www.carnation4th.org/carshow_2015.htm.) We are also going to be honoring the founder of the first Hotrods and Harley’s show Steve Norton. Steve was a longtime Carnation resident and just recently passed away so we thought we give out a special trophy at this years Carnation American Customs and Classics Show in his honor, the Steve Norton People’s Choice Award.

unteer and see if we could get things started back up. Luckily for me the carnation Fourth Committee welcomed me and Tommy stepped up to help out as well so off we went. For me the Carnation car show has always been a favorite because it just feels different from a lot of other shows. The whole Carnation Fourth event represents what a hometown celebration is all about. It just didn’t seem right that it was missing last year.

Snoqualmie Tribe remembers honorary member, elder
Harriet Turner was a beloved elder and honorary Snoqualmie Indian Tribe member. She died June 14. Along with her lifelong support and interest in her community, Turner was pivotal in the Snoqualmie Tribe’s re-recognition by the federal government in 1997, which was finalized in 1999. She also supported the Tribe’s efforts in protecting Snoqualmie Falls. Turner had a passion for history and anthropology, especially that of the Snoqualmie Tribe. In the 1970s she interviewed several tribal elders and wrote a book “Ethnozoology of the Snoqualmie” which was published in 1976. The research she conducted and subsequently published was instrumental in the tribe’s re-recognition. In 1999, the Snoqualmie received re-recognition based on evidence that they had maintained a continuous community from historical times to present, helped in part by Harriet’s work. Turner was born in Seattle in 1920, and lived there for most of her life. She attended Roosevelt High School and the University of Washington, where she received a master’s degree in anthropology.
