“The Beaverton Resource Guide is a vibrant snapshot of the Beaverton Community.� Marie Prins, Washington County Visitors Association

Message from the Mayor By Mayor Denny Doyle

C

an you believe it’s already late spring and we’re ready to start summer barbeque season? I had a lot of fun in April getting to throw the opening pitch for the start of the Murrayhill Little League season. It is so great to see the kids EXUVW RQWR WKH ÂżHOG ZLWK HQHUJ\ WR start the season. Speaking of starts, I can’t wait for the summer to begin. We’ve been busy at city hall planning for our annual summer events that are enjoyed by more than 30,000 people. This year we’ll be out in full force to talk about “Be Green in ‘17â€? and how we can all do our part locally to support a healthy environment. One of the best parts of my job is getting to work with so many different people who share

a common goal—to make our city even better. One of the things that sets Beaverton apart is our community visioning work. Our volunteer group is scheduled to give us an update at city council in May. I’ve had a chance to get a sneak peek at their report, and was very pleased to see that we’ve made progress on more than 84 percent of the ideas in the plan. Way to go! You can see the progress we are making throughout the community. This month we’ll celebrate a groundbreaking for Rembold Development in the heart of our downtown at the former Westgate Theater site. We are making great strides on the development of our Beaverton Center for the $UWV :HœUH KRVWLQJ RXU ¿UVW 5RVH Festival Half Marathon and look forward to starting a new annual tradition for Beaverton. I want to thank you, the Beaverton community, for all of your support. On behalf of the women and men who work for you at city hall, in our police department, in our libraries, and in public works, we couldn’t do what we do without your unwavering support for your city.

#3( )JTUPSZ The Beaverton Resource Guide (BRG) is a free monthly community paper written, edited and published in Beaverton, by Beaverton residents and for the businesses and people of Beaverton, Oregon, USA. Cedar House Media published the ďŹ rst edition in April of 2011 featuring local businesses, community news, and the Farmers Market. That ďŹ rst issue was 16 pages. Today, the paper is 32 pages and sponsored by a diverse cross section of public and private community organizations.

#3( (PBMT Beaverton has so many positive attributes and many go unnoticed. The BRG is our way of giving back to the community by highlighting what makes our city a great place to live, work and shop. With a focus on small, local businesses, we’d like to encourage our neighbors to ďŹ rst patron nearby businesses and give them a chance before looking at stores outside our community. #3( "EWFSUJTJOH With our unique layout, colorful design and exclusive community content, our readers are beyond loyal as reected by our 80%+ readership rate each month since early 2013. Not only do they want to know what’s happening in Beaverton each month, but they also agree with our philosophy staying local. As a business in the Beaverton area, your ad will be seen by those who are most willing to go out of their way to keep their dollars close to home. These shoppers, your potential new customers, also happen to be our best readers! In addition, we don’t print large quantities and mail them out to uninterested parties. Our papers are located in convenient and high trafďŹ c locations ready to be picked up by those who shop local. With low rates, targeted distribution and a willingness to provide more value than what you pay for, you’ll ďŹ nd that we’re just as interested in introducing your business to the community as you are!

Nom De Plume By Anne Harris

emember the term “onomatopoeiaâ€? from your English classes of yore? It’s the name given to a word that sounds like the thing it describes. Rude people slurp and the ruder ones burp. Cats say meow and dogs say bow-wow. But birds rule the repartee roost: They peep and cheep, twitter and tweet, hoot and whoop, coo and cuckoo and even cock-a-doodle-doo. But there’s one bird that is actually named for the sound of its call: the killdeer (Charadrius vociferus). The killdeer is a kind of plover, so it’s technically a shorebird, but LW OLYHV LQ RSHQ ÂżHOGV LQ WRZQV like ours, not often near the RFHDQ :LWK D VFLHQWLÂżF QDPH OLNH vociferus and a common name like killdeer, you’d think this bird was about six feet tall and equipped with teeth, but this brown-andwhite Beaverton native is just 11 inches long and eats bugs. Its call is unmistakable: kill deeah, deee, and dee ahy, delivered in a high, rapid trill when

Zoo Backs Kickstarter Campaign to Save Imperiled dP Penguins By Oregon Zoo Staff

A

frican penguin populations are in trouble. Over the decades, commercial interests have harvested nearly all of the guano deposits they need for nesting, and the birds are struggling to raise their young. Now the Oregon Zoo has joined forces with other zoos and aquariums to help reverse this trend — and you can help. Today, the Association of Zoos and Aquariums launched “Invest in the Nest,� a crowd-funding

campaign on Kickstarter that seeks to raise $150,000 to help build and SODFH DUWLÂżFLDO QHVW ER[HV for African penguins in South Africa and Namibia.

The nest boxes have already been successfully tested at penguin nesting sites, and conservation biologists are now looking to deploy them widely. “We brought together scientists and engineers to help us design the best nest for African penguins,� said AZA president and CEO Dan Ashe. “Now we need the public’s help to build and place the nests in South Africa. ‘Invest in the Nest’ is an opportunity for anyone to help save a species.� Supporters of the campaign won’t go away empty-handed. A

variety of rewards is available for backing the Kickstarter campaign, including a behind-the-scenes opportunity at the Oregon Zoo penguinarium, original artwork from the zoo’s Humboldt penguin colony, plus T-shirts, totes, posters and more. “The Oregon Zoo has been involved in Humboldt penguin conservation for years,� said Dr. Don Moore, zoo director. “But African penguins need our help too, and this campaign is a great way for the community to join us in helping save penguins in the wild.�

To back or follow the campaign, visit aza.org/kickstarter. The project is part of the Saving Animals From Extinction program, which brings together the expertise and resources of AZA, its members and partners to help save species from extinction.

ANTS: Public Enemy #1

Sunesta Light Benders Retractable Awning

By Geary Lydell

By Lora Creswick

W

ith the onset of summer and warmer weather every day, our neighborhood ants start to become active and eventually swarm. It’s not uncommon to have ants active inside a structure year-round, however as weather improves they start to become active outside as well. As they begin to crawl around, they are mainly looking for either a food source or a new nesting location. Does your home provide either or both? Two common house ants Odorous House Ants are a nuisance pest, very small 1/16�-1/8� long brown to black in color and a food contaminator. Carpenter Ants are a wood destroying pest, much larger 1/4�3/4� long black, red or a combination, and can cause damage to a structure over time. These are the two most common ant species in our area. Did you know? Nests can have several thousand ants per colony and there may be several colonies or subcolonies in and around your house. Ants are mobile and may travel 300-500 feet from their main nest outdoors to a structure where they have found a food source to infest. As ants make their way into a home, they leave a pheromone scent trail for other ants to follow.

H Preventing infestations ‡ prune trees and shrubbery off your house, including wood soil contact, ‡ eliminate moisture sources ‡ GRQœW VWRUH ¿UHZRRG RU building materials against the outside wall of your house ‡ PDNH LW GLI¿FXOW IRU DQWV WR HQWHU \RXU KRXVH E\ ¿OOLQJ LQ cracks on the exterior with silicone caulk Ants! What do I do? Once the structure is infested you should have your home professionally treated to eradicate the infestation. A follow up call may also be needed to make sure the infestations will not reoccur. Save time and money by being proactive rather than reactive. As with most things in life, prevention is always the best solution.

For further information and help with inspections, please call Guaranteed Pest Control Service Co. a family owned local company here in Beaverton since 1949.

ere’s the way to have more time on your deck, patio, outdoor restaurant dining areas, etc. and add more character and architectural interest to your structure at the same time: Add an Awning! How many times do you wish you could be outside but there is a misty rain or the sun is too bright? An awning creates another comfortable living space outdoors. With a Retractable Awning, you don’t have to worry about posts or angle bracing getting in the way- they simply roll up when you don’t need them and extend when you do.

Food and nutrition: As you grow older, your brain is exposed to more harmful stress due to lifestyle and environmental factors, resulting in a

Hypertension, diabetes, obesity, depression, head trauma, higher cholesterol, and smoking all increase the risk of dementia. Get your annual check-up, follow your doctor’s recommendations and take medications as prescribed.

exercises may improve your brain’s functioning and promote new brain cell growth, decreasing your likelihood of developing dementia. Social interaction: Stay connected.

Studies have shown that those with the most social interaction in their community experience the slowest rate of memory decline. It’s never too late to promote our brain health.

ave you ever noticed in relationship with a friend, coworker or even family member that there are misunderstandings? This is because most people see the world through their eyes only. They identify closely with their own feelings and experiences - so much so that they believe this to be the only reality. There are times when it could be to your advantage to become the observer. To pull back from a situation to gain perspective and understanding from a more neutral point. Consider what you may need to know about a situation or person in order to be more benevolent. Understand, what’s right in your mind may not apply in every situation. Sometimes it’s just better to be kind. I’m not suggesting you allow someone to walk all over you. What I’m suggesting is neutral observation from a distance. Take your emotions out of it. Back up, look through your wide angel

lenses and gain some perspective. Is it really important to the relationship that he/she puts the toothpaste cap on or that your co-worker offers you a cup of coffee when he/she gets one for themselves. It might be considerate however were we not all raised the same. What’s important to you may be oblivious to another. When you decide you care more about the person or the relationship than being right (in your mind) you can grow as a person. Connect to your goal. Is it a relationship you want or is it to be right. One is considerate and open hearted, the other is self serving and isolating. Being okay with differences is loving, having to be right is not. It’s based in fear.

Outdoor pools and splash pad open in time for our hot summer weather by THPRD

rab your towels and some sunscreen, THPRD’s two outdoor pools are set to open on June 26. Somerset West Swim Center and Raleigh Swim Center will host children’s lessons, adult classes and lap swimming along with open swim time for the whole family. THPRD offers swimming programs year-round at its six indoor pools, but “there’s something special about our outdoor facilities,” said Superintendent of Aquatics Sharon Hoffmeister. “People love them.” In fact, the open-air pools are so popular, Hoffmeister has ¿elded several calls from residents requesting that the district open them earlier. She acknowledges this may be the latest the pools have ever opened.

“Our seasonal schedules are tied to the Beaverton School District calendar, which has a later release date this year,” she explained, noting the unusually harsh winter weather has been another factor. The tight schedule has intensi¿ed preparation. “We train summer staff over the course of a week,” she said. “This year, we’re doing it all in two days.” Most of the district’s 300 part-time Aquatics positions have already been ¿lled, but some lifeguards, swim instructors, water ¿tness instructors and front desk staff may still be needed. Hoffmeister admits ¿lling part-time positions has been challenging the past 2-3 years. “Lifeguard certi¿cation costs $240,” she explained. “The fee can be an impediment for those seeking part-time employment.” To get more youth certi¿ed,

It features a toddler bay with low-spraying features and dumping buckets and aimable sprayers for older children. Private cabanas are available for rent during the summer. Also, the entire splash pad is available for private rental. At THPRD’s Somerset West Swim Center (18300 NW Parkview Blvd.), children and adults relax and play under the summer sun. The center offers swim lessons, open swim, lap swim and other programs.

the district is offering a variety of programs and incentives. This includes certi¿cation discounts to high school swimmers and water polo players immediately following their season and

very day on average, two Oregonians commit suicide and nationally, someone gives up WKH ¿JKW QHDUO\ HYHU\ PLQXWHV This article is to educate people on knowing who is at risk, the warning signs of someone in crisis and how you can help save a life. Who’s to say what it is that ZLOO EUHDN HDFK RI XV ¿QDQFLDO and legal troubles, divorce, job loss, depression, substance abuse, and having a family history of suicide are at the top of the list. Suicide rates are highest among males aged 65 and over. Studies show it’s because seniors are more isolated and less likely to be rescued. Warning Signs ‡ Talking about killing oneself ‡ Means of killing themselves ‡ Acting reckless ‡ Feelings of hopelessness ‡ Saying goodbye in an ambiguous way ‡ Changes in eating, sleeping and grooming habits ‡ Feeling a burden to others ‡ Increasing alcohol or drug use ‡ Giving away treasured items

I ‡ Withdrawing from friends, family and society ‡ No sense of Purpose ‡ Mental illness What should you do if you suspect someone might be at risk? Ask if they are thinking of hurting or killing themselves. Contrary to what many people fear, asking someone directly will not give them the idea to kill themselves. Remove weapons, pills, or other possible lethal means and call for help. Most people desperately want to live, they just are unable to see a solution. HELP LINES: Washington County Crisis Line, 503-291-9111. Call 911 for persons in immediate danger. National Suicide Prevention LifeLine, 800-273-8255.

June Vehicle Maintenance

Introducing Beaverton’s New High School

By Larry “The Car Guy“ Ferguson

Hello Beaverton Readers! une is a great time to get your vehicle serviced and make sure all systems are in working order for the summer months. This is also a perfect time to get your vehicle cleaned up on the interior, as well as the exterior.

J

Wash Away Winter Sludge Salt and de-icers used on roads to melt ice and snow, can cause serious damage to cars, especially their undercarriages where metal can rust. If you’ve taken your vehicle up to the mountains to ski, your car has likely picked up these corrosive chemicals. Take your car to a highly rated car wash to get rid of salt and other chemicals, and check to make sure the car wash has sprayers that clean the undercarriage. Even if you haven’t been in ice and snow, spring is a great time to give your vehicle a thorough cleaning.

Don’t forget to check window ZDVKLQJ ÀXLG OHYHOV DV ZHOO DV your brake and cooling system ÀXLGV Rotate Tires and Check Air Pressure We recommend tire rotation every 5,000 miles to keep tread wear even. Your car’s tires affect the ride, handling, traction and safety. Often front tires wear out prematurely which can lead to handling issues. Rotation and keeping proper air pressure in your tires will lengthen their life and give you a smoother safer ride. Inspect brakes It’s critical that your brakes function properly. Spring is a good time to have the pads and rotors checked. Once again, neglecting this simple task can lead to more expensive repairs later on.

Check Your Vehicle’s Alignment and Suspension Did you know that merely driving over potholes can damage your car’s alignment and suspension? You might have a problem if you notice the steering wheel vibrates or the car pulls. An alignment check typically costs $25 to $40 and is easy to perform. Even if you don’t notice any visible symptoms, spring is a good time to get your alignment and suspension checked. Change Oil and Check All Fluids If your last oil change was before winter, this is a good time to change it again. We recommend changing your car’s oil every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. ,WœV DOVR D JRRG WLPH WR ÀXVK \RXU WUDQVPLVVLRQ ÀXLG 7KLV LV RQH of the most neglected maintenance tasks and it’s one with a costly repair (between $2,000-$4,500) if

The new high school is all part of a $680 million bond measure that will also usher in two other new schools and the rebuilding of four others.

TVF&R Offers Tips to Prevent Window Falls By Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue

A

s we welcome warmer summer weather, Tualatin Valley Fire & Rescue reminds parents, grandparents, and babysitters that window falls are preventable. Each year, window falls account for about eight deaths and more than 3,300 injuries to young children in the United States. In Oregon, 26 children ages 5 and younger fell from windows in 2016. 79) 5 ¿UH¿JKWHU SDUDPHGLFV responded to an incident last May involving a 3-year-old boy who IHOO IURP D VHFRQG ÀRRU ZLQGRZ of his Tigard home. The child was transported to an area hospital for injuries he sustained when he landed on a concrete sidewalk after pushing out a window screen. Window screens are not strong enough to keep a child from falling out of a window. They are designed to keep bugs out, not kids in. Because children frequently land on their heads, many require hospitalization for fall injuries and may have permanent disabilities. A majority of falls occur between May and September, but can happen anytime windows are open.

The encouraging news is that simple steps can help prevent injuries. As a partner in the Stop at 4 Inches Campaign to Prevent Window Falls, TVF&R urges parents and families to continue their commitment to window safety. Please share the following tips with friends, family, or anyone else who has children living in or visiting their home. ‡ Keep windows closed and locked when not in use. ‡ Keep furniture and anything a child can climb on away from windows. ‡ Do not open windows more than 4 inches and install window stops. Window stops prevent windows from opening wide enough to allow a child to

tumble out. ‡ Window stops should be easily removed by an adult in the HYHQW RI D ¿UH RU RWKHU HPHUgency, as windows serve as a secondary means of escape. ‡ For a double-hung window, open the top portion near the ceiling for ventilation while keeping the bottom portion closed. ‡ Actively watch children near windows — no device can replace adult supervision. Encourage children to keep a safe distance away from windows. ‡ Ask about window safety when your child visits other homes.

For more information about window safety, appropriate safety devices for your style of windows, and locations to purchase window stops and guards, visit www.StopAt4.com. For more life safety information, visit www.tvfr.com.

Traffic Q&A:

With the Beaverton Police Department

Q:

Can a vehicle ever stop in the middle of an intersection?

A: Before you start through an intersection, tion, crosswalk, or railroad grade crossing, be sure there is room on the other side for or your vehicle. Even if you have a green light, do not start across an intersection if it causes your vehicle to stop in the intersection and block other trafďŹ c or a pedestrian crosswalk.

Q:

When are you allowed to pass on the right?

A: You may pass on the right only when: t There is room ahead on the road; t Your lane or pavement is wide enough for two lanes of trafďŹ c going the same direction; and, t The driver you are passing has stopped, is making or has signaled for a left turn. You may not pass on the right if any part of your vehicle will be off the paved part of the highway or into a bike lane. A vehicle may not drive in the bicycle lane to pass on the right. Use extra care when you pass on the right. Other drivers do not expect to be passed on the right. When overtaking and passing another vehicle traveling in the same direction on a two-lane road, you should pass only to the left of the vehicle. If you have a trafďŹ c question that you'd like us to ask the Beaverton Police Department for this column, email us at: BRG@cedarhousemedia.com (For all other police questions, call the police non-emergency number: 503-526-2260)

Something terrible has happened between kindergarten and 12th grade.â€? 14-year old Line Dalile echoed Sagan’s observations in her piece ‘How Schools Are Killing Creativity’. Dalile writes that at school, individuals “learned to stop questioning the world... and that [there is] only one right answer to each questionâ€?. Dalile reiterates her statement with the harsh reality that many students

face at a greater magnitude with each passing year: “The ‘whys’ [students] have always wanted to ask are never on the test, and they are omitted from the curriculum.� Sir Ken Robinson, an international advisor on education, suggested in his most famous Ted Talk that creativity is as vital to education as literacy and that nowadays, students “don’t grow into creativity, [they] grow out of it�. He highlights how the American education system fosters a fear of being wrong and demonizes the making of mistakes: two obstacles to generating original

American schooling impedes one’s natural sense creativity. Instruction coaches how to metaphorically stay within the box and color in all of the lines as required, it conditions children to see “different� as “bad�, which also gives rise to bullying. Students are taught to obey, to conform, rather than to question their world, to be eccentric and open to enlightenment. Students learn from an early age that compliance equals success rather than perceptive thinking equals societal change. The Torrence Tests of Creative Thinking indicated that children have become less emotionally and verbally expressive, less energetic and passionate, and less imaginative and unorthodox as they go through the American education system. Failure is condemned by the general culture of American education, discouraging students from being original and taking creatively-inclined risks.

Put the Breaks on Homelessness FUNDRAISER

Adoption: Need a Friend, Got a Friend

Cats that Need New Homes ADOPTION Hermione is an oldie but goodie, she initially has a shy side but will quickly warm up to you and show you her sweet disposition. Not as active as a young cat but she is fun to watch toss her toys around, she is spunky and fun to be around. She would love to sleep on your bed and snuggle at night. She recently had lab work done and is healthy with no issues except her eye sight might not be what it once was. Small frequent meals are best for her digestion (senior diet). Hermione is already spayed, house trained and up-to-date with vaccinations. She is easy to care for basically requiring only “you” for her happiness! A home with adults would be best for this senior kitty.

Drive In - Sleep Out Help put the brakes on child and family homelessness in Beaverton! BBQ, Live Music, Games, Fun, Movie, Sleep Out and Breakfast.

Register your car for just $25. Want to participate but don't want to sleep out? Register as a backseat driver. Participants are asked to raise $100 in pledges. Go to http://bit.ly/FPBDiSo to register and for more info.

Turbo

she loves her head scratched. She is usually good at meeting new people. She has lived with multiple cats, and tolerated them and will sleep near calm dogs. Like any cat it might take her a few days to adjust to a new environment, but that’s okay, because she is worth it. She is slightly overweight so she should be fed weight control food. and she loves to drink lots of water. Her current owner has horrible allergies and has decided Princess should be rehomed because she is unable to give her the affection she deserves. Can you be the one to give this kitty a loving home and the affection she wants. Turbo is an active, mostly gray, 6-year old male. He is an indoor only cat and likes to greet people at the door. He is very playful especially with a lazar pointer. He loves to snuggle especially when watching TV on you lap. He is neutered, house trained, and current with vaccinations. Years ago he had a urinary tract blockage so he eats exclusively Science

Diet Urinary Health food and has been healthy ever since. He has always been an only cat. He has only known one family and was a bottle-fed kitten. He currently lives with a dog and a 7 year old child, no other cats. Infants or toddlers would not be good for him. Recent major changes in the household has his owner believing it would be in Turbos best interest to be rehomed though she love him very much.. Can you give Turbo a loving home and the understanding he will need to settle in a new home.

Fire Brew an apple cider vinegarbased health tonic. It is raw, organic vinegar that is steeped for 4-6 weeks in an abundance of nutrient-dense vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices (that are hand chopped, shredded, juiced…) for optimal health benefits. It’s then strained and pressed and the concentrated vitamin-packed liquid is bottled to have you firing on all cylinders. It is not a relaxing sipping vinegar, though you can certainly sweeten with honey, cut with your favorite beverage and/or add it to your foods.

What began as a hobby, quickly became an obsession. Having gotten a degree in Graphic Design, and subsequently working in Marketing and Communications for years, I knew that the 2-dimensional world of print left something to be desired. I decided to get my hands dirty, or should I say clean, and take my soaps to the local market place. Making soap provided a creative outlet, and once I got started, I couldn’t stop. Making beautiful soaps, that left my skin feeling supple and soft, became my passion, and subsequently, Lion and Rose was born.

Why? The question is: Why not? The amount of immuneboosting, nutritional goodness in this tonic is awesome. The ‘brew’ should be taken daily as a preventative measure in either shot form, in your beverage of choice or integrated into your food choices (i.e. in your salads or marinades). It can also treat a number of maladies that arise from common colds, to inflammation, digestive and circulatory issues, high blood pressure etc.

Essance currently offers two lines of skincare products: one for oily or mature skin, and another for dry or sensitive skin.

The show also highlights the abilities of many of our young performers. Fun for the entire family.

From the charm of Lisbon to the call of the Algarve, from the wines in Douro Valley to the thermal springs of the Azores, and from the castles of the city of Sintra to the fashion-forward streets of Cascais, Portugal is poised for its moment in the tourism sun.

The Azores offers a bounty of activities for all types of travelers. The archipelago boasts varying landscapes and a mix of experiences that are laid back or intense as you choose.

t The employees were a blur of action keeping the restaurant clean! Had a bit of a learning curve, as they have quite an extensive menu, with many options, and I had not been in before. The employee behind the counter was great. Very interested in me, very patient, and it was easy to tell she was focused solely on helping me. She called me Sir!! That does not happen often! COOL! I got my sandwich, and man, it was good! As I sat and ate, I noticed the employees

Poem For the Dreamers

When Connor is not doing his Kumon you will find him on the ice where his team this year went on to win the Season Championships and he was chosen to be the 7th Man at a 2nd round Playoff Game for the Portland Winterhawks, where he was in-

Sarah looked out the window without answering. She was supposed to say no, that she’d had no idea and that she was sure he’d acted alone. But lying had never come easy to her. She’d known he was going to detonate that bomb, because she was the one who’d told him to do it. She handed the photo of her son to the detective. “Let me tell you a story.”

She thought she’d have more time with him. Her baby boy. The way his hair stuck up in all directions after sleep. His crushing little-boy hugs. His shrieking laughter whenever a dog licked his face. His favorite game of building towers taller than himself using anything within his reach.

Mary Elizabeth Summer is the author of the young-adult Trust Me mystery series. She lives in Beaverton with her wife, their daughter, their dog, and their evil overlor—er, cats.

FLASH FICTION Sarah Ausman clutched the photo of her son, careful in her grief not to let tears fall on the faded image. He’d been ten when the photo was taken. She’d spent far more money than it was worth on the baseball jersey, the overpriced team photos, the matching mug, but she’d wanted him to have something that other kids had. She wanted him to have friends, a good role model, something more than she could offer him just by herself.
