The Beaverton Resource Guide (BRG) is a free monthly community paper for the city of Beaverton, Oregon. Cedar House Media published the ďŹ rst edition in April of 2011 with the help of the city and the Farmers Market. That ďŹ rst issue was 16 pages. Today, just over one year later, the paper is 32 pages and sponsored by a huge cross section of the city from shopping malls like Washington Square and Cedar Hills Crossing to public entities such as the police and ďŹ re departments, the Visitor’s Association (WCVA), the Senior Citizen’s Advisory Committee and the park district (THPRD) to name a few.

THPRD: connecting people, parks and nature District making a splash with its new water playground E\ %RE :D\W 7+35'
he Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District has introduced a new recreational amenity to the Beaverton area this summer: a water playground, or “splash pad,� at Conestoga Recreation & Aquatic Center.
T
The facility – the ¿rst of its kind in THPRD’s 57-year history – is located at 9985 SW 125th Avenue, right next to Southridge High School in south Beaverton. The splash pad features above-ground toys and in-ground and wall nozzles
that spray water in different patterns and directions. It is the perfect place to cool off on hot summer days. And it’s not just for kids; adults can join in, too, and the whole place is ADA-accessible. There are four computer-controlled zones (toddler, teen, family and waterfall) that users can activate by pressing large buttons. Each zone runs for a set time period, then turns off until activated again. The computer also varies where the water sprays. That unpredictability only adds to the fun. The splash pad uses a recirculating water system with ¿ltration like a swimming pool’s. Water is collected, sent to an underground tank, ¿ltered and treated, and pumped back out to the splash pad toys and nozzles. The splash pad is part of an extensive
Grand opening celebration planned for Aug. 22 THPRD will celebrate the completion of its bond measure project at Conestoga Recreation & Aquatic Center with a grand opening on Aug. 22 from 3 to 7:30 p.m. The public is invited. The event will feature free use of the new splash pad and Âżtness room, free swimming, and other fun activities. Refreshments will be provided. A brief dedication ceremony with ribbon-cutting is planned for 6 p.m.
THPRD’s new splash pad at Conestoga Recreation & Aquatic Center – the ¿rst of its kind in the district – opened this summer. The water playground has been a popular place for children to cool off on warm days.
upgrade at Conestoga funded by THPRD’s 2008 voter-approved bond measure. The Park District has completed two other major bond projects so far this year: the redevelopment of Camille Park and the expansion of the Elsie Stuhr Center for users “55 and better.� Meanwhile, construction on numerous other bond projects has started.

Just For Fun Spotlight: My Masterpiece Art Studio
M
y Masterpiece Art Studio is a unique place for people to discover the power in their artistic expression. The studio was formed by two mothers when art curriculum was stripped from local schools, leaving students with no exposure to the arts. Now, families can drop into the open studio in Beaverton that features 3,000 square feet of space to spread out and paint, sculpt, draw, collage or print using high quality non-toxic art materials. Take a class; there are professionally instructed lessons available for artists of all ages and levels of ability. My Masterpiece Art Studio is also a great place to get together with friends and family to celebrate a birthday or special event. Classes, camps, and parties are offered to inspire anyone to create their very own masterpiece. Throughout the year there are special workshops and themes based on holidays and the seasons. The most important idea behind My Masterpiece Art Studio is that there is never any pressure to do anything D VSHFLĹ…F ZD\ MXVW GR DUW

Roasted Baby Carrots C
arrots! Raw or Cooked? For my family, it’s normally 'eat them raw' since I can’t get my husband and son to eat them cooked. It's a texture thing I suppose. So we munch on them raw or blend them into smoothies. The other day I bought some baby carrots from the Beaverton Farmers Market and set out to roast them. My husband was skeptical. I was too but deIngredients t 2 bunches Baby Carrots (1 1/2 lbs. once trimmed); Wash them thoroughly; Leave the skin on or peel them if you like. t 3 Tbs Olive Oil (2 Tbs for tossing the carrots in and 1 Tbs mixed with fresh herbs to drizzle on the roasted carrots) t 2 Tbs Honey (I used local organic honey) t 2 Tbs Orange Juice t Salt (to taste) t Cracked Black Pepper (to taste) t Fresh Herbs (minced) - We grow our own herbs in our garden so I decided to use what we have in surplus right now: Parsley and Dill. You could also use Thyme. Directions 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. 2. Blanch the carrots in a pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes and then drain. 3. Mix together the 2 Tbs of olive oil, orange juice and toss the carrots to coat. 4. Line the carrots on to a baking tray, cover with foil and roast for about 10 minutes.

MiNGO
n 2004 MiNGO opened at The Round in Beaverton under Michael Cronan and Michael Tocchini. Along a parallel vein to its cousin and longtime successful restaurant, Caffe Mingo in NW Portland, the Michaels’ follow a genuine, old-style method to running a restaurant. Welcoming customers as if into their own home and adhering to the slow food philosophy and local food to table concepts of Italy are the mainstays of the MiNGO genre. Clean and simple food, wine that speaks of its land, craft cocktails, creating a family out of staff and friends out of customers; WKHVH DUH VRPH RI WKH HQMR\DEOH HOHPHQWV RI 0L1*2ģV VXFFHVV
termined to cook up a carrot my husband would eat. I ended up roasting them shorter than required and that left a good little crunch to it. Success! Both my husband and son loved them. I consider this a great life accomplishment. This dish would go very well with any poultry or meat entree. They are also very good to snack on. 5. Remove from the oven and toss the carrots in honey, salt and pepper and then line them up again on the baking try and bake, uncovered, for another 10 minutes. 6. Mix 1 Tbs of olive oil with minced herbs. Place the roasted carrots on a plate and drizzle this herbed olive oil on the carrots.

Dr. Young got right to the source of my pain and after 4 treatments of his Viceral Manipulation, I ďŹ nally could sleep without pain. What a relief, I am so grateful. Janet M (Aloha)
0VU PG UIF 8IFFMDIBJS After being treated for a serious accident injuring my pelvis and knee, I decided to visit Young Chiropractic. Not being able to go up the stairs for treatment, Dr. Young came to me in the parking lot. He assessed my body and after 3 or 4 visits, I walked up stairs for a few more visits. I believe because Dr Young had survived a near fatal accident himself. He was more aware of my own bodily trauma. This man is such a gift. Thank you Dr Young. Dan F. (Hillsboro)

oyce Martinazzi is an author and co-founder of the Tualatin Historical Society. She will review highlights of Tualatin’s 100 year story. Loyce is the author and editor of several publications chronicling the city’s growth and development since incorporation in 1913. She was born and raised in
Tualatin. Her many stories come from listening to her fathers stories about the old days, her mother’s newspaper articles for the 1959 Oregon State Centennial and her own experiences watching the town grow from a village to a city of 27,000. Tualatin is now making a name for itself with the discovery of ancient mammal bones and evidence of the Ice Age.

ell, it's summertime and the weather has warmed up here in Beaverton. The Senior Citizen's Advisory Committee (SCAC) would like to give our Seniors a few tips on how to avoid getting heatstroke. Heat Exhaustion, or more commonly known as heatstroke, is the combination of exposure to high WHPSHUDWXUHV LQDGHTXDWH ņXLG LQtake (like water), and overworking or exercising in hot weather. This in turn causes one to perspire and then the loss of water and electrolytes (salt) leads to dehydration. When your temperature continues to rise from the dehydration it can result in heatstroke. The elderly are more susceptLEOH DV WKH\ DUH QRW DEOH WR DGMXVW very quickly to the changes in the weather. This makes it easier for them to get heatstroke, especially, if they stay out in hot weather or in a hot, non-air-conditioned living space and are not keeping properly hydrated. Symptoms of Heatstroke: Feeling tired, confused, nervous, weak, dizzy, nausea, or faint. You may also have muscle cramps, a headache, sweating, vomiting and cold, clammy skin. Care and Prevention: Get out of the Heat! Stay in cool surroundings like the shade or air-conditioned room. Lie down with your
feet up and rest for awhile. You may also take a cool water bath. Drink lots of cool liquids like water or an electrolyte drink.

ational Night Out (NNO) is the brainchild of The National Association of Town Watch (NATW) which is a QRQSURĹ…W FULPH SUHYHQWLRQ organization that works in cooperation with thousands of crime watch groups and law enforcement agencies throughout the country. National Night Out, “Americas Night Out Against Crimeâ€?, was introduced by the Association in 1984. In an effort to heighten awareness and strengthen participation in local anticrime efforts, the NATW felt that a KLJK SURĹ…OH KLJK LPSDFW type of crime prevention event was needed nationally. The NATW recognized how popular the typical crime watch communities were but lamented that only 5 to 7% of the residents were participating actively. A national program was proposed and National Night Out was born. National Night Out is designed to: ÄŞ Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness ÄŞ Generate support for & participation in, local anti-crime programs ÄŞ Strengthen neighborhood spirit & police-community partnerships ÄŞ Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and Ĺ…JKWLQJ EDFN Last year’s National Night Out campaign involved citizens, law enforcement agencies, civic groups, businesses, neighborhood organizations and local RIĹ…FLDOV IURP RYHU FRP-

Festivities will begin promptly at 6pm and will run until 8pm.

Each year several public and private agencies partner with us by setting up information stations and providing personnel to answer questions. Along with the traditional display of outdoor lights and front porch vigils, cities, towns and neighborhoods celebrate NNO with a variety of events and activities such as: ÄŞ Block parties ÄŞ Cookouts ÄŞ Visits from local police and sheriff departments ÄŞ Parades & Exhibits ÄŞ Flashlight Walks ÄŞ Contests ÄŞ Youth programs You and your family have our personal invitation to attend our festivities on August 7th.

elcome to our August Beaverton Hero where we highlight local Residents and non-profits that are making a difference in our community. I'm especially proud to be able to share the story of Ms. Jennifer Abeyratne. “Ms. Jennifer� is the former owner and teacher at Aloha Montessori Preschool located at Murrayhill Christian Church in Murrayhill. A wonderful lady who had devoted more than 30 plus years of teaching preschoolers the Montessori method of education to so many families in the Beaverton area. My personal experience with Ms. Jennifer began 6 years ago when I heard through a friend DERXW DQ DPD]LQJ SUH VFKRRO MXVW down the street from where I live. All 3 of my kids had the opportunity to attend Aloha Montessori and have been blessed to have Ms. Jennifer and her teachers, Ms. Kathy and Ms. Erin, be an important part of their early education. When Ms. Jennifer decided to retire last year (the same year as Oprah), I referred to her as the “Oprah of Montessori�. She was that good! Wanting to learn more, I was happy when Ms. Jennifer agreed to share her story as we sat by the pond in Murrayhill. Ms. Jennifer is originally from Sri Lanka where she was trained in the Montessori method (very popular in India and Europe at that time). After teaching in the US for 13 years, Ms. Jennifer got the idea to open up her own Montessori preschool where she could more effectively touch the lives of children and give them the best early
eduction she could. Aloha Montessori Pre-school was born in the basement of Murrayhill Christian Church. T h e love, care and guidance Ms. Jennifer gave all the kids who attended has no doubt left a lasting memories with the families who have gone through the doors of Aloha. After 20 years, MS. Jennifer felt that it was time to retire and close the doors to the school. She truly loved what she did and it is that passion, love and dedication for all the kids that went through the school that makes her our August hero. It doesn’t take the bank account RI %LOO *DWHV RU WKH VHOņHVV GHGLcation of Mother Teresa to make a meaningful contribution. Ms. Jennifer has made a difference in the lives of so many families by instilling a foundation of love of learning at an early age for these children. I feel extremely blessed that my kids got their start with Ms. Jennifer and appreciate the kindness and love she has shown, not only to my family but to all families she touched. Thank you Ms. Jennifer!
If your child went to Aloha Montessori Preschool, Ms. Jennifer would love to hear from you. Direct letters to: Ms. Jennifer Abeyratne c/o Murrayhill Christian Church 15050 SW Weir Road Beaverton, Oregon 97007 Parisjat Umscheid is a mother of three, crossďŹ tter, event planner & writer.

Attempts at Serious Conversations
T
he other day as I was doing chores and half-listening to my children, it dawned on me how quickly we accustom ourselves to the idiosyncrasies of our families: t My 3 yr-old was doing mouthto mouth resuscitation on her swim oaties with periodic counting and side-breathing; t The 7 yr-old was eating macaroni one noodle at a time (with chopsticks), while contorting her face into ecstatic looks of pleasure on the off chance a camera might roll in and begin ďŹ lming; t And my 10 yr-old, lost in a reverie of music and literature, missed slamming into a wall by mere centimeters--only to quickly reverse, spike approach, and slap every door frame she encountered.
To someone peeping through the window, we probably look rather odd; quite honestly, though, these antics don’t even cross my radar anymore.
