New bathhouse may set stage for state park’s future
Star-spangled Sammamish
By Tom Corrigan tcorrigan@isspress.com “This is the beginning of the promise that the new park holds, not the end,” said Janet Farness, executive director of the nonprofit Friends of Lake Sammamish State Park. She was referring to the opening of what she called a new beach house or bathhouse on the park’s Sunset Beach. The Friends and the state held a joint ribbon-cutting ceremony for the rebuilt facility the evening of June 7. According to
a state press release, the older facility on the same spot had outlived its usefulness. The new bathhouse carried a price tag of $2.3 million, paid for with state capital bond funds. The ribbon-cutting event also was meant to mark the annexation of the state park into the boundaries of the city of Issaquah earlier this year. “For decades, Lake Sammamish has been a destination for people to experience outdoor adventure or enjoy a See PARK, Page 2

Spurred by the sudden destruction of the Kampp barn on 228th Avenue Southeast in October 2014, the Sammamish Heritage Society applied for and has won an $11,000 grant from 4Culture, a King County cultural services agency. The money will be used to create a database of historic homes and other structures in the city in the hopes of saving them from disappearing as development in Sammamish moves forward. “We do have a lot of historic structures,” said Doug Eglington, a member of the heritage group. He said volunteers would find, study as much as possible and, perhaps most importantly, catalogue approximately 160 structures built in the city prior to 1941. When possible, surveyors will interview current owners or inhabitants. The society has
split the city into zones that will be visited by designated groups of volunteers. “It’s going well so far,” said Ella Moore, president of the historic group. “It’s going to be a lot of work.” Moore added the heritage society does not have a lot of volunteers, but described those volunteers as very dedicated. As they put together the list of local historic structures, Eglington said the Sammamish group has one tremendous resource to fall back on.

Heritage From Page 1 1930s, Eglington said county officials created what’s become known as the Puget Sound Regional Archives — pictures and, in many cases, histories of taxable structures throughout the area. For the Sammamish project, that information has proven invaluable, Eglington said. Using the grant partly to hire a consultant, the heritage society has developed a questionnaire that volunteers will fill out for each notable structure. In some cases, a first step will be to ensure the property still exists, Eglington said. Surveyors will then take a basic look at the condition of the property and photograph it. Besides being presented to the public, the final list will go to the city and the county. At the end of the project, if a property deserves landmark status to help preserve it, the society will be in a much better posi-
tion to make that request. In the instance of the Kampp barn, heritage society archivist Walt Carrel said the barn dated back to about 1910. This area was first known for logging, but by the time the barn went up largely had switched over to farming. Carrel said the barn was in really good repair and actually was being used to store items by the Kampp family almost right up the end. Carrel said the family sold their property to developers Polygon Homes, who also got plenty of attention for what appeared to many to be a clear-cutting of trees on its 228th Avenue property. He said the barn was torn down quickly, though preservationists were offered a chance to remove parts of the structure for what Carrel clearly thought of as an exorbitant fee. Polygon Homes did not return calls asking for comment. “I’m sure somebody would have salvaged the barn given time,” Carrel said.

SAMMAMISH REVIEW many purposes as possible, including classes for children, which would be a great tie-in with the $750,000 playground planned for nearby. The bathhouse was designed by well-known architect Christopher Patano, whose design won a Top Ten Green Award from the Seattle Chapter of the American Institute of Architects in 2008. Yes, the plans have been sitting around that long, Farness said. The delay isn’t hard to explain, she added, saying most people called the problem a recession. “We have been dead in the water,” Farness said, in terms of rebuild-
ing what many consider a neglected park. She added that’s why the bathhouse is so important to her and the park, saying it shows the revamping of the recreational area is moving forward again. “I think that’s one of the bigger messages,” Farness added. “We’re not done.” Green qualities of the bathhouse building include a “living” roof with plants to blend with the park’s open beach space as well as solar panels. The restrooms and concession stand were constructed of wood reclaimed from a dismantled dam in northern
California. Future plans for the state park include rebuilding beaches and possibly new floating boat docks. Though there was some doubt as to whether funding would pass muster, funding for the playground and $1 million for the boat docks were included in the final version of the state budget passed last week, Farness said. Impending and recent improvements include a nature trail and interpretive signing to be completed this fall. The park’s boat launch was renovated and a boardwalk added to the mouth of Issaquah Creek in 2013.

Klahanie man is curling royalty By Tom Corrigan tcorrigan@isspress.com From the point of view of the average American, curling might seem a somewhat fringe sport. If it weren’t, Klahanie’s Tom Violette probably would be a certified superstar. Violette has been part of any number of state and national championship teams, most recently helping bring home the gold in the World Senior Curling Championship held in Sochi, Russia. Not incidentally, for Violette and his family, curling — huge north of the border — is definitely not on the fringes. “I grew up in Minnesota,” said Violette. “It’s almost like Canada. Every little town has a curling team.” Violette, now 54, started curling when he was 14, along with friends and his brother Greg. “I was just hooked from the very beginning,” Violette said.
By Céline Stucki/World Curling Federation
Tom Violette delivers a stone during the finals of the 2015 World Senior Curling Championship on April 25 in Sochi, Russia. Fast forward to April 2015, and Violette and three Seattle-area teammates, coached by Greg Violette, defeated Canada at the former Winter Olympic venue in Sochi to win the men’s World Senior Curling Championship for Seattle’s Granite Curling Club. At the same time, the team won the national club championship for its
age bracket. It is the only team to ever win both championships in the same year. “I’m still amazed how well we did,” Violette said. “It was just a dream season. I don’t even know
how to put it.” When Violette and his family originally came west, they landed in Los Angeles. Violette said he tried to continue his time on the ice. “It wasn’t exactly a curling Mecca,” he added. Violette spent a lot of time traveling to Seattle for matches. He competed against, but also became friends with, a Seattle squad that had won a number of major titles. When a spot opened up on that team, Violette was asked to fill it and moved to the Seattle area at least partly in order to do so. “It gave me the goal to move up here,” Violette said, adding the team won the state and national titles that very first See CURLING, Page 5

OPINION
SAMMAMISH REVIEW
Editorial Be a safe driver, not a dangerous one School is out and that means one thing — children are everywhere you look during the hours they used to be in school. What does that mean? It’s up to every one of us to keep them safe. People need to stop treating driving like they’re just out for a joyride ¬— eating, drinking, shaving, reading, texting, talking — and treat it like it is: You’re piloting thousands of pounds of steel and glass and other materials that can kill in an instant. And once that instant is over, it can never be taken back. Of course, there are rules for the road, and we all (should have) read them once when we got our driver’s licenses. But how many people can recall even a handful of those rules? Now people are texting and taking pictures and posting to Facebook and tweeting, all while behind the wheel of a vehicle that can take a life in less time than it took to do any of those things. Here are some simplified rules for the road. You should follow them whether you’re on foot, on a bicycle or motorcycle, in a car or truck, or even driving something much larger, like a motorhome or a tractor trailer. First, adjust your attitude before you turn the key. Are you angry or too tired or rushing to get somewhere? Take a deep breath and remember how serious this driving thing is. Second, watch for everything. Not just children, not just animals, not just other vehicles. Scan ahead and look at the shoulders of the road coming up. Are they clear, or is someone about to cross in a crosswalk? Is a dog or a deer right by the curb, where it might dart out suddenly? Third, drive. Only drive. Listening to the radio is fine. Playing air drums while you drive is not. Don’t get on the phone. Don’t update anything. Just drive your vehicle the best you can at an appropriate speed at all times. Your life, and the lives of others, depends on it.

Letter to the Editor Bring Klahanie area into city before the election At the June 16 City Council meeting, Mr. Harmon, a Klahanie resident, gave public comment supporting an earlier annexation date. City Manager Ben Yazici’s response was completely inappropriate, condescending and should not have been allowed by Mayor Tom Vance. As a future citizen of Sammamish, Mr. Harmon has a right to present his opinion in a civil environment. The vision statement of Sammamish states the city intends to provide accessible, quality government service and encourage active, involved citizens; and develop civic and cultural opportunities and experiences. Annexing Klahanie and giving residents the vote would help achieve this vision. Further, I don’t understand the city
Review sammamish
manager’s frustration with the annexation process. In “How to Annex a City,” Washington State Boundary Review Board for King County (2013), the last step of annexation is becoming part of the city. It states: “Step 11 – Becoming a Part of the City: Once the annexation is completed (e.g., ordinances/resolutions adopted, elections verified), and filed with the State, the area becomes a part of the City. The City will conduct a census of the annexed area. The information will establish representation, service levels, revenues and costs. (Time Period: Open – generally occurs within 3 months.)” Using this guideline, it seems the annexation should become effective much sooner than Jan. 1. The annexation date that is ultimately accepted is up to council members, who can be held accountable by the citizens, not the city manager.
If each council member truly believed his or her own statements saying they would “love to give Klahanie the ability to vote,” they would think a little harder about the annexation date. Every possible step should be taken to try and make that happen for our new citizens. Stephanie Sullivan Sammamish

Our readership has surely noticed that local sports coverage hasn’t been the same since Bob Taylor left The Issaquah Press a few years ago. Just like every other business, money dictates how we do things, and we’ve Neil Pierson had to cut back on reporting staff and editorial space. It’s unfortunate, because the people and organizations who comprise our communities deserve better. I never knew Taylor, but from what I’ve heard, his work was greatly valued and proved irreplaceable after his retirement. Recently, we made a change that will hopefully turn things around. In May, I was named the sports editor for our newspaper group, meaning the bulk of the sports coverage you’ll find in The Issaquah Press and Sammamish Review falls under my responsibilities. Consequently, you’ll likely see my name more in our other two publications, SnoValley Star and Newcastle News, although we have dedicated sports people for those papers already.

Coverage From Page 4 in Newcastle, where Christina Corrales-Toy will continue covering Liberty and Hazen high schools, and part-time reporter Sam Kenyon will keep being the point person for Mount Si High School, and anything in and around Snoqualmie and North Bend. There were a few reasons for altering my job description, but to state it simply, we wanted to give recognition to more teams and athletes, and we wanted the quality of our stories to increase. What we were previously doing wasn’t cutting it, since the way our reporting beats were divided meant that Issaquah High School didn’t get much coverage. Bizarre, for sure. That’s been rectified. As sports editor, I’m now in charge of coverage for four local high schools — Issaquah, Skyline, Eastlake and Eastside Catholic. You’ll see me at each of those places on a regular basis, although we recognize it’ll still be less than hardcore sports fans would like. There’s only one of me, and a heck of a lot of teams.

The World Senior Curling Championships began in 2002. In 2014, Violette’s Granite Club team went undefeated and headed to the national championships in Eveleth, Minnesota.

From there, it was on to Sochi. “I had heard just nightmares about Russia in general,” Violette said. “Looking back, everything was first class.” Sochi was, he said, a big circle of different venues. Teams walked to pretty much wherever they needed to go. “The atmosphere was really incredible,” Violette added. “You didn’t feel you were in Russia at all.” He and his teammates did have an opportunity to do some sightseeing in the city of Sochi, where, Violette noted Russian President Vladimir Putin has a summer home. Back on the ice, Violette said playing in Russia was a little different.

With Tom Violette as coach, the Granite Club junior team won the national championship in 2014. Those matches were held in Seattle. Luc is now playing for a Youth Olympic team that may make a trip to Lillehammer, Norway. He said his dad obviously has played a big part in his curling career, adding he doesn’t really think of curling as unusual. “I grew up exposed to it,” Luc said. “I just enjoy it.”

The ice was unusual and the Russians scrape the bottoms of the “rocks” thrown during the matches which makes the rocks curl more, Violette said. Violette’s team had to go through some stiff competition to make it to the finals. They beat an Irish squad that won the championship two years ago. They also had to take on Scotland, New Zealand and, of course, Canada. “There’s kind of a saying in curling that’s it’s not a gold medal unless you play Canada,” Violette said.

SAMMAMISH REVIEW
Pitching keys Lakeside Recovery’s doubleheader sweep By Neil Pierson npierson@ sammamishreview.com A season that’s been defined by superb pitching got even better for Lakeside Recovery last week as the team returned to the friendly confines of Issaquah High School. Pitchers Todd Reese and Jack Dellinger didn’t allow a run in Lakeside’s July 1 Senior American Legion doubleheader sweep of the visiting Evergreen Sports Center Tigers. Lakeside not only kept control of the Northwest League lead at 18-1, but added to its stellar defensive numbers this summer. The team has recorded 12 shutouts en route to an overall record of 21-9, and has posted four consecutive shutouts in league play. Opponents average only 2.27 runs per game against Lakeside. “Everybody goes out there and they throw strikes,” catcher Jonathan Chriest said of the pitching staff’s success. “There’s no question whether or not they’re going to come out and go after hitters and use their best stuff.” Reese dominated the Auburn-based ESC Tigers in the opening game of the twinbill. The Newport High School product tossed a complete game, scattered five hits and one walk, and struck out 10 in a 9-0 victory.

By Neil Pierson
Lakeside Recovery pitcher Todd Reese delivers during the first game of a July 1 doubleheader against the ESC Tigers. Reese was masterful in a 9-0 win, allowing five hits and striking out 10 batters in seven innings. Listed at 5-foot-10 and 210 pounds, Reese isn’t the biggest or most imposing pitcher, but he makes the right pitches in the right situations. “He throws hard and he’s got a great changeup, mixes up his off-speed well,” Chriest said. “He’s got it all.” Lakeside grabbed control in the first inning, scoring four times off Tigers starter Brady Robic. The only hit of the frame
was Mitchell Morimoto’s triple to deep center field, which scored Danny Sinatro and Alex Lambeau. Morimoto, a 2014 Issaquah High School graduate, had a strong doubleheader. He was 3-for-7 with three RBIs and three runs scored, upping his season average to .410. Morimoto also had an outstanding spring at Mesa Community College in Colorado Springs, Colorado, where
he batted .393 with 45 RBIs. He earned a spot on the junior college AllAmerican second team. “It’s a lot different — everyone is throwing hard, everything is competitive,” Morimoto said of his first season of junior college baseball. “You’re being looked at to do everything, all the little things … so it just taught me a lot, and it was a good experience overall.” Robic settled down and
kept Lakeside from adding to the lead until the fifth, but a throwing error that allowed leadoff batter Morimoto to reach opened the floodgates. AJ Block doubled into the right-field corner for a run, and Tommy Swinscoe hit a sacrifice fly to make it 6-0. Travis Laydon replaced Robic on the mound, and Chriest greeted him with a two-run triple to the rightfield gap. Lambeau’s single scored Chriest with the game’s final run. “We’ve been scoring early,” Chriest remarked. “The key for us is just to kind of keep putting teams away late in the game, and scoring more late in the games, for sure.” In the nightcap, Lakeside
needed minimal run support again as Dellinger, an Issaquah senior, was in charge. He allowed three hits and one walk with 11 strikeouts in seven innings to earn a 5-0 win. Morimoto’s RBI single in the third inning put Lakeside ahead. Will Langan and Reese added RBI hits in the fourth and fifth, respectively, and Sinatro’s two-run triple in the sixth cemented the victory. Lakeside plays at the annual Brandy Pugh Memorial Classic at Bellevue’s Bannerwood Park from July 8-13. Subregional tournament play starts July 18, with qualifiers moving on to the state tournament July 24-28 in Bellingham.

OVERLAKE URGENT CARE TREATED HIS BRONCHITIS. AND HE COULD BREATHE EASY WHEN HE GOT THE BILL. When you need a doctor right away but it’s not life-threatening, Overlake’s Eastside Urgent Care clinics can treat you for around the same price as a typical doctor’s visit. Our Issaquah and Redmond clinics are open 7 days a week, 7am to 11pm, and our new Downtown Bellevue clinic is open Monday – Saturday from noon until 10pm.
We think about you
