Making just a few last-minute changes, members of the Enumclaw City Council adopted a 2012 operating budget during their final meeting of 2011. As was the case all across the state, the process wasn’t an easy one, as the ongoing economic downturn took its toll. “This has been a very, very difficult budget season,” Mayor Liz Reynolds said. “We had our ups and downs, but I think we handled it pretty well.” The budget passed by a 6-1 margin, with outgoing council member Rich Elfers taking a philosophical, opposing stance. Stating his belief that the 2012 spending plan does not emphasize the city’s core services, Elfers cast the lone dissenting vote. Councilman Sean Krebs had made it clear he would bring

Librarian books on into retirement By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer

When Enumclaw Public Library Director Bob Baer retires at the end of December, it’s the people he will miss. Not just the crew he works with inside the walls at 1700 First St., but the folks who come in looking

for assistance with research, asking specific questions about the local history, or wanting a recommendation for a good read. “I didn’t have a desire to be an administrator at a larger library,” Baer said, reflecting on his 30 years at the Enumclaw Public Library. “It would have taken me away from the front desk and the people.”

Born and raised a New Yorker, Baer went to college and worked as a librarian in New Jersey for a time. He also spent time in the Midwest. He married Nancy in 1973 and after a while they were itching to leave the East Coast. They weren’t sure where they were heading, but

ENUMCLAW VEHICLE PROWLS: A Park Street resident reported the morning of Dec. 14 a stereo had been stolen from a vehicle during the previous night. Damage was done to the dashboard. The morning of Dec. 11, a vehicle prowl at a Roosevelt Avenue address resulted in the loss of two chainsaws, a drill set and some clothing. Damage was done to the vehicles that were prowled. TIRES SLASHED: A Pioneer Street resident told police Dec. 14 that vehicle tires had been slashed the previous night. Damage was estimated at $300. FOUND PROPERTY: An apartment maintenance supervisor told police Dec. 14 he had found drug paraphernalia and a gun case in a unit that had recently been vacated. The caller was told to dispose of the property and notify police if drugs were located. ASSAULT: Police heard Dec. 14 of a female victim who had been assaulted at an apartment on Cole Street. She declined to press charges, but was to pursue a restraining order against the suspect. The male suspect could not be immediately located and the victim was given a ride and turned over to a relative. DO NOT DRIVE: Police responded to an Enumclaw High parking lot the afternoon of Dec. 13. The two subjects in a vehicle were not supposed

to be on school grounds, so they were ordered to leave. Because both had a suspended drivers license, they departed on foot and agreed to have a licensed driver pick up their car. ANIMAL ISSUE: Police received a complaint Dec. 11 of a pit bull being kept at a Lincoln Avenue residence. Police spoke with the owner, who said the animal was a mixed breed. King County Animal Control was asked to check the animal to determine if it possessed breeding that would make it illegal in the city limits. The dog was friendly with police and was allowed to stay until KCAC could respond. DISTURBANCE: An officer was advised at 12:30 a.m. Dec. 10 of a disturbance at a Railroad Street address. Contact was made and the situation was settled. One man was advised that, if he wanted to pursue the matter further, he should do so when he became sober. HARASSMENT: A citizen told police Dec. 10 of receiving harassing text messages from an identified subject. Both the complainant and the sender of the texts were contacted and were advised to block the phone number of the other. The complainant was to obtain a court order prohibiting such contacts. HELP NEEDED: A 911 call was received at 5:21 a.m. Dec. 10 and, when the call was returned, it went directly to an answering machine.

done. There were no suspects in either case. FIGHT IN PROGRESS: Police responded the afternoon of Dec. 9 to the vicinity of Garfield Street and Elmont Avenue and a report of a fight in progress. All involved fled in two vehicles but officers located both parties. The situation was handled and parents were notified. CIVIL DISPUTE: A Black Diamond resident asked police for help Dec. 9 in getting money back that he paid to an Enumclaw business. He was told it was a civil situation and he would have to take the business owner to small claims court.

BUCKLEY UNWANTED GUEST: On the afternoon of Dec. 14 Buckley police got a call regarding an unwanted female guest annoying the resident of a Park Avenue apartment. When police arrived, the unwelcome

woman was discovered to have a warrant out of Enumclaw Municipal Court. The female was arrested and the person reporting the incident requested that officers take a rifle from the apartment for safekeeping. The offender was booked into the Enumclaw jail and the firearm was secured into the Buckley Police Department evidence room for safekeeping. ITEMS STOLEN: On the morning of Dec. 11 a Second Street resident notified police that two items had been stolen from his parked and secured vehicle the previous evening. The man said that a pair of field glasses and his iPod were stolen. FIGHTING OVER THE REMOTE: Shortly before midnight Dec. 10, police were dispatched to a Ryan Road address. During the investigation for possible domestic violence assault, the female reporting the altercation testified that she

was struck by her husband with a remote control device during what had started out as only a verbal disagreement. Visible injuries could be seen on the wife and her husband was arrested for fourth-degree assault. IN THE DITCH: In separate incidents the night of Dec. 10, a tandem of female drivers requested assistance in removing their vehicles from ditches along state Route 410. In the initial incident, which occurred around 7 p.m., the driver told officers she had simply missed a turn and driven off the roadway. Her undamaged car was safely removed from the ditch and driven from the scene. At the intersection of 282nd and SR 410, the driver told officers she had fallen asleep and drifted off the roadway into the ditch. A tow truck removed the car from the ditch and a check of the vehicle showed no damage.

Police responded and found a person who had fallen and could not get up. Police entered the home and medical aid was summoned. NOTHING FOUND: A person walking across from Thunder Mountain Middle School the afternoon of Dec. 10 heard someone yelling for help. The citizen called county authorities, who notified city police. A check of the area turned up nothing. PUSHED FROM CAR: Police heard Dec. 10 of a woman being pushed from a moving vehicle in the vicinity of Griffin Avenue and Pioneer Street. Both police and fire personnel responded. The woman was transported to St. Elizabeth Hospital. The suspect was located and taken into custody on an assault charge.

Buckley City Council splits 4-2 on budget By John Leggett Staff Writer

The Buckley City Council split 4-2 Dec. 13 on a 2012 budget that looks to keep the city afloat for another 12 months, without the cutting of any major services. “Basically, the only cut that was made for next year is the amount of hours which the youth center will be opened,� City Administrator Dave Schmidt said, “but that is

working on the assumption that we are going to keep the Buckley jail up and running, going to be getting our usual excise tax returns from the city of Buckley’s liquor sales back from the state and going to be maintaining our newly revamped state-of-the-art 911 facility.� Schmidt said the statewide Initiative 1183 and Pierce County legislation regarding 911 services will negatively impact small cit-

Schmidt was quick to point out, however, “the revenue projections are just that‌projections.â€? With the dubious condition of the economy in the city, county, state and nation, Schmidt said times are tough on cities everywhere. “There is no longer a safety net and we are struggling week-to-week, monthto-month to simply exist,â€? he said. “We are running on future projections and a bare bones budget in which there are no guarantees.â€?

James Montgomery and Doug Harple voted “no� on the spending plan. Prior to the vote, Harple offered a dissenting view. “I have concerns regarding the proposed budget for the upcoming year,� he said. “Many cities across the state and country have had to make major administrative cuts to adopt a budget that will get them through the upcoming year. Those have included pay cuts, departmental reductions in hours and even layoffs. I believe we have not yet done enough within this budget to reduce spending in the upcoming year.� Harple pointed out that during the coming year Buckley plans to hire a new communications manager and a part-time clerk, promote two employees, add

Focus is on increasing math skills at Sunrise By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer

Sunrise Elementary School teacher Nicole Leahy had a math student who was struggling with the concept of “less than� and “greater than.� She shared her story with fellow teachers Nancy Tubbs and Elisabeth Carlson. Carlson didn’t hesitate, suggesting Leahy teach the student how to place a single dot under the smaller number and two dots below the greater number. When the dots are connected, Carlson said, they form the symbol correctly indicating which number is greater and which is less (3>1). Those ah-ha moments are happening across the Enumclaw School District Friday afternoons. The kids may not physically be in the classroom at that time, but the conversation is all about them. When teachers gather for Professional Learning Communities, they’re meeting to discuss student work and intervention methods. Leahy, Carlson and Tubbs were part of a demonstration during the Enumclaw School Board’s Dec. 5 workshop. Board and audience members sat in on their PLC session at Sunrise. The trio went through data Carlson compiled from earlier assessments. Each group has a data team that inputs, sorts and shares information with colleagues. Carlson’s data showed the teachers’ fourth-grade students were having no

problem understanding factors and multiples; a few were still not grasping solving equations or solving for the unknown number; and a much larger number were not understanding finding the area and perimeter of complex shapes. Together, they decided to divide the groups according to learning level and team them with intervention specialist Desi Gibb. Gibb and an assistant can work with pockets of students, concentrating on specific skills during 30-minute blocks of intervention time. Fifth-grade student Nolan Hildebrand said the special attention he received helped. He used a rubber band to help him visualize the process for finding the area and perimeter of complex shapes. Kage Bowdre, also a fifth-grade student, said he used his time to work on multiplication, division and area and perimeter, while Amaya Varga needed additional assistance with function tables and algebraic equations. She used a magic tunnel application on a SMARTboard to help her

“get it.� “They get more practice in a smaller group,� teacher Marsha Henderson said. “They get more one-on-one attention.� Teachers also ask, “How do we enrich those who are getting it?� Gibb finds more challenging work for them, sometimes online, or through different, but related, activities, like creating a dream home. “Area and perimeter aren’t just used in math, but in a bunch of different situations,� fifth-grader Garrett Rismiller said. He related how he learned from an additional assignment that let students design a home. Students also get the connection between the work their teachers are doing Friday afternoon and the work they are doing in their specialized groups. Gibb said Sunrise math test scores are increasing and students are meeting standard due to a new math curriculum, PLCs, dedicated intervention times and afterschool support and tutoring. “A lot has happened in the world of math in the past three years,� Gibb said.

Sunrise PTA The board also met Sunrise PTA President Mary Alicea, who gave them a quick overview of how parents work with school leaders and teachers there. This year, the Sunrise PTA has budgeted $12,000 for field trips, curriculum and family nights, a year-end barbecue and assemblies. The PTA also purchases

Superintendent Mike Nelson took a moment to thank the group for their effort in providing Thanksgiving dinners for the needy. Organized by Sunrise’s fifth-grade students, the school collected more than 700 food items, including nearly 20 turkeys. Along the way, the students also generated a multitude of chain links of kind gestures for Rachel’s Challenge.

The Best Days and the Hardest Days By Britt Nelson Director, Plateau Outreach Ministries

562647

It’s Wednesday – food bank day and emergency assistance day at Plateau Outreach Ministries. This day begins early as volunteers fire up the coffee pot, unpack the food boxes delivered Monday by Northwest Harvest, stock the shelves from our food donations and ready their posts with compassionate hearts that pray there will be enough. For me personally, Wednesdays have been the best days and hardest days all at the same time. I witness shelves overflowing, bread racks piled high and bins heaping as we begin the day. This seeming abundance reflects the generosity of our community. This is the “best� part of the day. By noon the shelves are nearly empty. This is the “hardest� part of the day. Each week we see 80 – 100 families needing food. Most families never expected to need this kind of help. Jenny and Paul (not their real names), a young couple, were in last week. They had both been working and attending school for professional degrees. They had their future planned, were on track and were making it. At the time they came through the food bank, they weren’t sure they had enough food at home to get through the week. As they walked from station to station at the food bank, their story came spilling out. “My work hours got cut. Books and tuition got too expensive. Jenny’s mom got sick. She had to quit school to go take care of her. We never thought we would need to come to the food bank. I had to quit school this semester to try to find more work. Our car broke down this week, so this month’s

rent money paid for repairs. This month’s food money is paying for rent. We’ve never had to ask for help. Too many things happened all at once for us to make it this month.� Jenny and Paul had a lot of unfortunate circumstances happen, but they are not unusual. This type of story is becoming more and more common as people are stretched so thin financially. As the volunteers cleaned up after a very busy morning, I started hearing their comments, “We saw 100 people today!� “Some sure looked like they needed food really bad,� “The cereal boxes set out special for the holidays were gone by 11:00.� “It was only 11:30 and we were down to the bare bones.� “We made it another week.� Somehow the people coming through during the last 30 minutes were still able to leave with food. A thankful sigh emerged from the volunteers. This is the other “best� part of the day. We have once again had enough to feed every family. Wednesdays are probably a “best� day for families coming through our doors as well. They know they will receive food for at least a few meals that week. The generosity of our community helps us support these families week in and week out, long after the Christmas decorations and greetings of holiday cheer disappear. I pray that you can keep the story of Jenny and Paul and others like them in your heart throughout the coming year. Your contribution to Plateau Outreach Ministries through Neighbors In Need enables us to help families cope with hardest days when “too many things happen at once.�

Digester gets official kick-off Enumclaw dairy farmers were joined the afternoon Dec. 12 by King County Executive Dow Constantine, among others, to celebrate the beginning of construction on a digester project that will transform cow manure into green energy and other valuable resources. “The robust agriculture industry on the Enumclaw Plateau is the perfect place for this innovation that will generate renewable energy, save money for family farmers, and preserve the environment,� Constantine said before joining a handful of others to turn some ceremonial dirt during the groundbreaking ceremony. Rainier Biogas, a partnership between Skagit County-based company Farm Power Northwest, and at least three local dairies near Enumclaw, will build and operate the digester. The digester is an air-tight

tank that uses microorganisms to break down or “digest� the manure and organic matter. The bacteria produce waste gas that can be harnessed to make electricity. Construction on the $4 million project is scheduled to be completed in summer 2012. Manure waste management on dairy farms is a significant operational challenge for farmers because of its volume and handling expense. Processing manure in a 1-million-gallon digester vessel, Rainier Biogas will generate enough electricity to power 600 typical homes. The elimination of manure lagoon methane emissions combined with clean electricity will reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by the equivalent of 9,000 tons of CO2 per year, which is the equivalent of removing 2,200 cars from the road. In addition, the treatment process separates digested

The other day I learned another friend had been laid off. The economy may be looking up, but it’s far from sunny. Christmas brings out the giving hearts in communities, but I am thankful we live among folks who give year round. For example, Sheila Smith stopped by recently to let me know the need for new underwear and socks for school-age children is great. Sheila runs the Enumclaw and White River school district clothing banks. The Buckley clothBrenda Sexton ing bank is named Staff Writer in memory of her father Donald Loomis. When Sheila asks, Sheila receives. The community has always rallied to her call to clothe toddlers to teens no matter the time of year. Last year, the Buckley clothing bank helped more than 475 people, infants to adults. The Enumclaw clothing bank saw a tremendous increase in users, helping 1,400 people in the area, up from 900. Those aren’t the only numbers up. We feel our family is blessed and in return we do what we can to help Plateau Outreach Ministries in Enumclaw. It’s amazing to read the statistics in the newsletter we receive quarterly. In the third quarter of this year, POM’s food bank served an average of 322 households – 26,522 pounds of food donated, 38,485 pounds of food went back out the door to needy neighbors. In that same time period, POM’s Samaritan Project helped Plateau residents keep a roof over their head by assisting with rent; covered expensive, but necessary prescriptions; provided emergency shelter from the below-freezing temperatures; kept the lights and heat

LAST WEEK: Should mail service be reduced to save money?

I read with dismay the article about the proposed fire tax rate increase for District 28 in the Dec. 14 CourierHerald. It seems that in these tough economic times with tight budgets that the fire district could have shown some financial restraint. When they took over operation of the city fire department in 2009 there were $2 million in district reserves. What happened to that money? Now Fire District 28 wants even more property tax money? I object to this proposed rate increase for three reasons. First, does the district need more firefighters? The city hired three new full-time firefighters in 2009 to add a third shift. This move increased the number of fire personnel from 8.5 to 11.5. Within approximately 30 days of going to the district all the fire employees got substantial raises. In 2011 the fire district hired 6 more full-time firefighters, part of it from reserves, part from a two-year grant. Now, the proposal is to increase that number to 18 firefighters by 2018! The three additional firefighters hired in 2009 were able to cut down response time to acceptable levels. Since that time, based on the last census, the population of the city has decreased, as have property valuations. Does the district really need that many firefighters to do their job? Second, does the fire district need to build a new headquarters when $528,000 was spent in 1999 on a remodel of the current headquarters,

not to mention a new roof in 2010 at a cost of $165,000? True, a new, shiny building would be nice, but the old one is quite functional. I’m reminded of owners of professional sports teams demanding upgrades to the Kingdome and KeyArena because they weren’t fancy enough even though KeyArena had been renovated just a few years before. We also saw the tearing down of the Kingdome so two new stadiums could be built. Was that really necessary? $1.5 million for a new building is quite a contrast to the $100 per year paid to the city for our old fire station. Third, and most importantly to me, increasing the fire district tax rate means there will be less money for the city from property taxes. Now that the fire district has a primary position to the city in regard to property taxes, the city will lose that much income to run its operations. The more the fire district receives, the less the city has to pay for other things like police, streets, and parks. In short, there is only so much in the way of tax dollars that can be mined from this community, especially in tough economic times, and fire needs to be cognizant of that. I urge the voters in Fire District 28 to reject the levy request set for April 2012. Increasing costs and taking money from the city was not what the voters or the Enumclaw city council had in mind when we/they voted to transfer operation of the fire department to District 28. It wasn’t what I had in mind when I voted for it. Richard Elfers Enumclaw Editor’s note: Richard Elfers is a member of the Enumclaw City Council. His term expires Dec. 31.

It’s time for government to evolve with society As has been the case for the past few decades, the vast majority of professional politicians believe that the citizens of America do not deserve a chance at self-government. It is suggested that we genuinely do. What we experience and participate in today is no longer reflective of a fully self-governing society. With small to medium sized protests occurring across America and in Europe, where some violence has taken place, it is obviously the right time to recognize that our governmental branches need to evolve to a level in which the government supports the direction that our particular society (and along with a few others around the globe as well) wants to go, versus tolerating an overreaching national government that insists on being in control of the general populace 100 percent of the time. Another great challenge for us today is not what we can do for our country, but rather what we can do for ourselves and our communities that will lessen or eliminate the societal damage that is presently being caused by high-level politicians and mid-level bureaucrats that are largely unseen. We need to consider a new method of thinking and comprehension, which will in turn increase our awareness of wisdom and how it can provide inspiration for ourselves, our great country and, last but not least, all of humanity.

100 Years on the Plateau! Dynamite was an important part of underground coal mining. The seams of coal were like a face of hard rock, though coal is typically softer and easier to break than the surrounding shale and sandstone. In this photo, John Costanich is about to load a stick of dynamite into a 2-inch diameter hole drilled into the intact coal. Bill Kombol is handing him the stick of dynamite. A series of parallel holes would be drilled and each loaded with dynamite. The last couple of sticks were filled with clay and referred to as “dummy bags.� The purpose was to seal the end of the drill hole so the explosive power of the dynamite broke up the coal rather than blasting out of an unsealed hole. Costanich was a lifetime coal miner and the son of a coal miner. This photo was taken by Barry Kombol in 1974 at the Rogers No. 3 mine, the last underground coal mine in the state of Washington. Costanich retired after the mine closed in 1975 and died in November 2007 at the age of 91. Photo provided by Bill Kombol

McBarron named school’s first Daffodil Princess

DECA program made the princess program possible Daffodil Princess Megan McBarron has White River High School DECA to thank for her historical premier. For years, the White River was the only school district in Pierce County that has never had a Daffodil Princess. In order to have a princess, a high school must enter a selfpropelled f loat in the Daffodil Grand Floral Parade with a minimum of 2,000 daffodils. This spring, it happened. Leaders decided the school district would no longer be left out of the scholarship opportunity and other benefits of being part of the Royal Court brings. “I think it’s a great opportunity for a young woman,� said 2012 Daffodil President

daffodils, Chris Gibson and Arrow Lumber, who contributed the golf cart, Madelin Grimm and Jessica Tidwell who designed costumes and Jennifer Gormley, who served as assistant art director. The float’s construction also took a lot of work from Nate Armstrong,

Susan McGuire, a White River School Board member who has been trying to get her district involved for the past 12 years. She said last year, the Daffodil Scholarship Foundation awarded $53,000 in scholarships to the 23 girls who were members of the Royal Court. Members of the Royal Court also act as leadership ambassadors for Pierce County, visiting 20 to 25 festivals around the state, as well as participating in experiences that lead to personal growth and service before self. DECA accepted the challenge and put together a small float, propelled by one of the school’s golf carts, a creative entry that met the 2011 parade theme “Spirit of Adventure.� The WRHS float was based on the movie “Up!� – Up with WRSD!

The house on wheels cruised through parade routes in Tacoma, Puyallup and Sumner and, spurred by the response, the WRHS band and cheerleaders continued by adding the Orting parade at the end of the day. It was a huge undertaking with plenty of folks contributing like Marci Tidwell, chaperone, Rhonda Orndorff, artistic director, Jeanette Schuster, who procured materials, Colby Herrington, Matt Holznagel and Terry Veltkamp, who constructed the skeleton of the float, Susan McGuire, who donated the 2,000

Clayton Holm, Trevor Kurtz, Amethyst Loccinole, Reagan Ledbetter, Nick Nelson, Ryan Roulier, CJ Schierling and Brooke Ulrich. Nick Nelson, Micaela Gomez, Tidwell, Grimm, Tyler Ousely, and Alyssa Wagner marched in the parade.

Megan McBarron will be the first White River High School student to represent the school and community as a Daffodil Princess. S h e w a s s ele c te d to represent White R i v e r High at Megan McBarron the 2012 Daffodil Festival Nov. 9. She was escorted that evening by Kyle Durrant. McBarron presented a speech on the 2012 Daffodil Festival theme “Don’t Stop Believing� and answered an impromptu question. According to White River High DECA President Ryan Roulier Jr., the club’s production of a f loat for the 2011 parade was instrumental in securing a princess. The float was small by Daffodil Parade standards, but entering it in the 2011 Daffodil Parade made it possible for White River to become a part of the Daffodil Royalty Program. White River School Board member and 2012 Daffodil President Susan McGuire presented McBarron with her tiara. McBarron will compete with other Princesses at the Queen’s Coronation March 16 at Life Center in Tacoma. The Queen’s Coronation is a celebration for the young women of the Royal Court. That evening, a queen is selected to reign over festival activities that take place throughout the year. The queen and her court are the official ambassadors of the festival. The nearly two dozen young women participating in the royalty program are selected by their schools and communities to represent the Daffodil Festival and Pierce County as the festival travels throughout the Pacific Northwest. They not only vie for the title of queen, but also for scholarships provided by the Daffodil Scholarship Foundation. During the coronation program, princesses are judged on their academic standing, personality, attitude, speaking ability,

appearance, sociability, content of their speech, festival awareness and impromptu speaking. Through the years, the program has evolved, McGuire said. The duties of the Royal Court have expanded to include community service projects and personal development.

We’re all pretty ordinary – and that’s special Have you ever had a personal encounter with someone famous or important? My dad traveled quite a bit for his business when I was younger and would often recount the famous people he would see in his travels. He’d come home and talk of how he sat next to “so and so� on the airplane, or saw “so and so� in the terminal in this or that airport. And then, I had my own brush with fame. While helping to decorate our church in Louisiana for Christmas one Saturday morning, someone came and found me in the sanctuary and said I had a phone call waiting for me. As I walked to my office to answer the call, the individual said, “Oh, it’s Sen. Bob Dole.� I thought for sure she was joking. But no; as I picked up the phone, I heard

JAMES DARBY Enumclaw native James “Jimmy� Darby died Dec. 9, 2011, at his daughter’s home in Echo, Ore., following a year-long battle with cancer. He was 76. He was born March 10, 1935, in Enumclaw to Roy and Movano (Rogers) Darby. He attended Enumclaw High School and, James Darby following graduation, served in the U.S. Army, Navy and Army National Guard. On March 21, 1958, he married Linda Lou Henry. They raised their family in rural Enumclaw in a home that he built in his spare time while working at Isaacson Steel in Seattle. Family vacations were spent fishing at Alta Lake and clam digging in Grayland, Wash. When Isaacson Steel closed its Seattle plant in 1983, he set out on an adventure to Mena, Ark., to mine for gold with his brother-in-law Larry Thornton. After returning, he began work as a machinist for Boeing, retiring in 2005 at age 70. He is survived by daughters Cindy Parks and husband Craig, Tammy Ellingsen and husband Don and Cathy Goode and husband Ed Josie; sisters Sharon Thornton and Dee Lund; brother Darrell Klanke; 13 grandchildren

The White River School District put student safety at the forefront during its Dec. 14 meeting when it approved an outline for safe student walking areas and hazard zones. Human resources and transportation directors Keith Banks and Randy Gregg have spent months ironing out a plan that brings attention to the district’s school walking routes. According to Gregg, Washington state provides guidelines that recommend a 1-mile walking zone for school, but in Buckley many of those roads are too narrow for students to walk, do not have shoulders or sidewalks, have heavy traffic and are not lit. Students should not be allowed to cross state Route 410, the report said. “Safety is most important,� he said. In the past, the district did not receive funding for students it transported within the walking radius, even if it was not safe. But, naming those areas as hazard zones may help the district get some of those funding dollars back. About 250 students fall into the area. Gregg and Banks are also working on grant options that would erect signs and beacons to help in some of those areas. PTAs also reviewed the information.

Former Enumclaw resident James Anthony Forza died Dec. 2, 2011, at the age of 88. He was born Sept. 2, 1923, in Tacoma and had lived in Enumclaw from 1991 to 2008. He was a veteran of the U.S. Navy who served during World War II, fought in the South Pacific and received the Purple Heart. He was a 37-year employee of the U.S. Postal Service, retiring in 1981. He is survived by wife of 31 years Patricia Forza; sons Jerry Forza of Enumclaw and Larry Forza of Springfield, Mo.; daughter Marie Clay and husband Dee of Riggins, Idaho; stepsons Jay Diebell and wife Linda of Vashon Island, Wash., and Gene Diebell of Klamath Falls, Ore.; 21 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by brothers Reno Forza and Harry Forza. A funeral Mass took place Wednesday, Dec. 14, at Holy Disciples Catholic Church and burial was at Tahoma National Cemetery.

CORNER FROM 7 on in a number of homes and a number of other necessities you and I take for granted. POM leaders interviewed 145 clients and provided vouchers for financial assistance to 101. For those who don’t know, the churches of the Plateau Ministerial Association formed POM more than a decade ago to answer the call to Love Your Neighbor. POM helps those in crisis two ways, with food, clothing, housing and emergency financial assistance in the form of vouchers and case management. Its loving arms stretch around the Enumclaw School District, Buckley, Wilkeson, Carbonado, South Prairie and Black Diamond. A grant is helping with renovations at POM’s building so it can better serve its user base. Its annual spaghetti dinner and auction in October generated $21,000 for local families, but it goes fast. That money raised can be handed out as vouchers in about three months. I know another fundraiser is planned for New Year’s that usually brings in $8,000. The Courier-Herald partners with POM for its Neighbors in Need program, a big fundraising event for the organization that helps it get through the winter months. I’m sure you’ve been reading the stories each week by POM Director Britt Nelson. The

stories are about people we know. They truly are our neighbors in need. The needs don’t stop after the holiday season. POM’s food bank, as well as the Kiwanis food banks in Enumclaw and Buckley, are always in need of canned vegetables, meats, stews, chili, macaroni and cheese, as well as toilet paper, diapers, tissues and other toiletries. We have friends who live in Bonney Lake and are amazed at how difficult it is to keep food on the shelves at the food banks there. The community recently responded to a call for help from the food banks, but those donations disappear from shelves in short order. A Bonney Lake-Sumner Courier-Herald article reported food banks in that area are serving an average of 1,200 families or more a month. Similar to Sheila’s program, the Bonney Lake-Sumner schools are fortunate to have the Lions 4 Kids House to supply muchneeded clothing. Organizers there have also seen an increase in visitors. Bonney Lake and Sumner are communities where the needy and homeless may be harder to see on the streets, but as we are finding out, these days those most in need are likely living right next door. It’s good to know no matter where you live on the Plateau or in the valley, there are giving hearts and places folks can turn when they are stretched too thin.

JAMES EARL RODEN JR., D.C. James Earl Roden Jr., 84, a longtime resident of Enumclaw, died December 7, 2011 in Seattle, while holding the hand of his beloved wife Norma and surrounded by his loving family. Earl was born September 8, 1927 to Eva and James Earl Roden Sr. in Everett, WA. The family moved to Kelso, WA when he was a baby. He graduated from Kelso High School in 1945. In 1947, Earl married his high school sweetheart Norma Jean Borland, also of Kelso. They were married for 64 years. Career opportunities allowed the family to enjoy life in Astoria and Roseburg, OR; Lombard, IL; eventually settling in Enumclaw, WA which quickly became their favorite home. Earl had many achievements. At 15 years old, he was the youngest licensed barber in the State of Washington. He became an initial stockholder and log buyer for Astoria Plywood at its beginning. Along with two business partners, Earl built a wood flour mill in Roseburg, OR which burned down in 1969. He subsequently followed his dream of becoming a Chiropractor and went back to college at the age of 40. Earl graduated from the National College of Chiropractic in Lombard, IL. Earl opened his chiropractic clinic in Enumclaw, where he practiced until his retirement at the age of 70. In 2011, Earl and Norma moved to Seattle to be closer to family. Earl and Norma had four children: Dan Roden (Barbara Dickson) of Seattle; Gary Roden (deceased); Mark Roden (Pam) of Indianola; and Jeanyce Almgren (Jeff) of Seattle; and 6 much loved grandchildren and 5 adored great-grandchildren. Earl’s lasting legacy is the love of family, hard work, generosity, and the joy of the afternoon nap. Family and friends always knew they were loved and could call anytime. Although his family grieves, they are grateful Earl is now at peace. Earl died of pneumonia and the complications of Alzheimer’s disease. Earl was preceded in death by son Gary, sister Maxine Goody and brother Monte Roden. At his request, no service will be held. Condolences may be sent to 9001 Lake City Way NE, Apt. 416, Seattle, WA 98115. In lieu of flowers, please make any donations to Providence Hospice, the Alzheimer’s Association or the charity of your choice.

Resolve to take healthy steps If you’re not planning on adding “lose weight” to your list of New Year’s resolutions, you’re in the minority. In fact, losing weight is one of the most commonly made resolutions, year after year. But it’s definitely not the only health resolution you should consider making for 2012. While losing weight offers a host of benefits for many people, addressing other health issues, like your hearing health and psychological well-being, can make equally compelling New Year’s resolutions. Go ahead and add “drop a few pounds” to your resolution list, but consider jotting these ideas down as well: Resolve to take care of your hearing health. About 10 percent of Americans report having hearing difficulties, and that includes about 1.4 million children, according to the Better Hearing Institute. You may think you’re too young to worry about your hearing, but the BHI also reports that the majority of people with hearing loss (65 percent) are younger than 65. Our increasingly noisy world exposes people of all ages to potentially damaging sounds, so it’s more important than ever to pay attention to your hearing health. Have your hearing professionally tested every year. If you’re diagnosed with hearing loss, talk to your health care provider to determine if a hearing aid will help you. Resolve to take care of your emotional health. Stress seems like a natural part of our

busy lives these days, but too much stress can be harmful to your overall well-being. According to WebMD, stress can negatively affect your mental health, your immune system, heart, digestive system, skin, lungs and reproductive organs. Resolve to take steps to relieve stress. Stress-busting can take on many forms for many people, whether it’s spending time with a pet (interacting with animals can lower blood pressure and heart rate), listening to music, meditating or getting rigorous exercise. Don’t worry over how you relieve stress, just do what feels right for you and fits into your schedule and lifestyle and you’ll reap the benefits. Resolve to take care of your bone health. Healthy bones are important for everyone, not just post-menopausal women and growing children. Most of your body’s calcium is stored in the bones and teeth. When your body doesn’t get enough calcium from outside sources, it starts drawing what it needs from storage, and osteoporosis occurs. While anyone can experience osteoporosis, certain groups are more at risk than others, including Caucasian women who have gone through menopause, older adults, people who are small in stature, and those with low-calcium diets or who are physically inactive, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Ensure your diet includes the recommended amount of calcium per day, and stay active by doing physical activities that help build

Holiday memories more precious than presents Christmas Memories Thinking back on my childhood, I realize one of my favorite holiday memories is of working in the kitchen with my mother and sister, preparing holiday baskets for our neighbors. Rolling out sugar cookies, decorating cupcakes, the aroma of banana bread baking in the oven. My sister and I would spend hours deciding what would go in each basket and then choosing just the right ribbon candy (do they even make ribbon candy anymore?) to sprinkle in the package. I decided to ask some of the elders in our community to share their early Christmas memories, by asking, “What do you remember most of Christmas holidays when you were a child?” The stories shared are remarkable, telling of a time that many of us can’t imagine or funny little incidents that can make you laugh 80 years after the fact. Sibyl, age 81, remembers growing up during the depression in Missouri.

Senior Highlights Jobyna Nickum Enumclaw Senior Activity Center Director

“We didn’t have much at Christmas time – there simply wasn’t any money during those years.” She remembers all the family coming together for Christmas and an unmarried uncle who made sure all the kids got a paper maché Santa with candy pieces in his bag. That was often the only gift received. For Christmas dinner, the family had chicken. Although they raised turkeys, those were to sell to pay for the taxes on the house. In 1940, when she was a schoolteacher at the county school, she remembers buying a banana and an orange for each of her students (out of her own pocket). As she says, “that might be the only banana or orange those kids got all year! It was quite a treat.”

bone strength, such as walking, running, dancing and weight lifting. Resolve to take care of your feet. The condition of your feet can clue you in to your overall health, and signs of serious problems like arthritis, diabetes and circulatory issues can all be detected in the feet. More Americans have foot pain than in any other part of their bodies they consider vital to health, such as the skin, teeth or even the heart, according to a survey by the American Podiatric Medical Association. To prevent foot problems, make sure you wear shoes that fit well and offer plenty of support, don’t wear the same pair every day, and avoid walking around barefoot, the APMA advises. If you experience foot pain, don’t ignore it; seek a doctor’s help. Resolve to get more rest.

Think you’re OK squeaking by with just five hours of sleep a night? Think again. The National Sleep Foundation says sleep is essential to your overall health and wellbeing, yet 60 percent of American adults say they have problems sleeping a few nights a week or more. On average, adults need about eight hours of sleep; some will be alright with an hour or two less, while others will need more. To help ensure you get the rest you need, maintain a regular sleep schedule, avoid caffeine before bedtime, don’t have a heavy meal or drink alcohol before you sleep, and create a sleep-friendly environment with minimal light and noise.

Dennis, age 72, grew up on a farm in Nebraska during the 1930s. “The winters were very cold, often well below zero,” he said. “I remember 8 foot drifts of snow.” To go to the homes of other family members for Christmas, the whole family would put on snowshoes (woven bamboo overshoes) and trek across the fields. “You had to be real careful you didn’t drop the gifts in the snow,” he said. He remembers when the whole family would come to their homestead for Christmas dinner: “There would be 50 to 60 people with all my aunts and uncles and their kids. Because our dining room table only sat 12 people, we would eat in shifts and my mother would have to wash the dishes between each setting. We didn’t mind; we had a good time visiting with one another.” Norma, age 70, was the youngest of 13 children, growing up on a farm in Oklahoma during the 1930s. Her Christmas memories are centered around the family doing things together: stringing popcorn for the tree, pulling taffy, making tree ornaments out of construction paper and the special treat of her mom making hot cocoa for everyone. “We always made our star for the top of the tree; all of us kids would save gum wrappers all year long and then we would

Stay healthy this winter: Get a flu shot By Dr. Jude Verzosa For The Courier-Herald

The single best way to protect yourself against the flu is to get vaccinated each year. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control recommends that people get their seasonal influenza vaccine as soon as the vaccine becomes available, as it is now in our community. Vaccination before the end of December is best because this timing ensures that protective antibodies are in place before flu activity is typically at its highest. This Dr. Jude Verzosa year’s vaccine will protect against the three influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the flu season, including an influenza A (H1N1) virus and an influenza B virus. One shot does it all – and a nasal form is available for those who hate needles. Everyone six months and older should get an annual flu vaccine, the CDC recommends. Between 5 and 20 percent of the population catches the flu, on average, every year, according to available statistics. Also, approximately 200,000 people are hospitalized annually in the U.S. with flurelated complications. Influenza is a serious disease and people should take it seriously. It’s especially important that specific groups get vacci-

nated either because they are at high risk for flu-related complications or because they live with or care for people at high risk for developing health complications related to influenza. These include: pregnant women; children younger than 5, and especially children younger than 2; people 50 years of age and older; individuals with certain chronic medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes and heart disease; residents of nursing homes and other longterm care facilities; and individuals who live with or care for those at high risk for flu-related complications, including health care workers and parents of children less than 6 months of age (these children are considered too young to be vaccinated). Some people should not receive a flu vaccine without first consulting their physician or health care provider. These include individuals who have a severe allergy to chicken eggs, those who have previously experienced a severe reaction to an influenza vaccination, and individuals who have developed Guillain-Barre syndrome after a flu shot. Guillain-Barre syndrome is an autoimmune disorder in which the body’s immune system attacks itself. Exactly what triggers this rare condition is unknown. The syndrome may occur at any age but is most common in men and women between 30 and 50. In addition to getting vaccinated, other tips for staying healthy during the cold and flu season include proper hand-washing techniques (washing regularly with

This month was the annual Magic Strings performance at EHS auditorium! Elementary students performed a variety of Christmas songs using violins and cellos. Magic Strings is an integrated music and arts experience. All students enrolled in Magic Strings receive string instruction during the school week on either violin or cello. Magic Strings began in September of 2000 with a $25,000 grant from the VH1 Save the Music Foundation. The grant provided 22 violins and 9 cellos. Parents and the community have played a vital role in acquiring additional resources. We continue to purchase instruments through the fund raising efforts directed by our parent group.

Enumclaw High earns trip to state robotics championships By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer

In early December, Enumclaw High School’s Team 4213, the Techno-Bots, qualified for the Washington state robotics championships. The team also won the “Think� award, a judges’

award based on the quality of the team’s documentation relating to the engineering process of the robot. Adviser Corey Cassell said senior Danielle Terrell did a fantastic job on the engineering book, which is a crucial part of the competition as judges score teams heavily on the use of engineering

principles on their projects. Terrell also coached the team during competition. Sebastian Churchel skillfully piloted the robot and mechanics Michael Pederson and Sam Phelps helped keep the robot on the field by fixing any mechanical issues. Kayla Terrill provided support to the administration of the team duties and the mechanics. Cassell noted the robot had some technical difficulties throughout the day, but in the end they performed

well enough to qualify for the state contest, which is scheduled for Jan. 14 and 15. Enumclaw High Team 5447, RoboBees, and Team 5446, Mecha-Militia, are hoping to earn a spot at state in the third and final qualifier Saturday at Henry Jackson High School in Mill Creek. Those results were not available at press time. “We are confident that the teams will be able to work out the challenges and be ready for a good performance on the 17th,� Cassell said.

CREEK FROM 8

“These grants do two things: They provide needed money for local organizations to help repair damaged rivers and streams and protect the most pristine areas,� said Don “Bud� Hover, chairman of the state funding board. “They also create jobs. They will put people to work improving the environment and restoring something that is important to Washington’s economy: salmon.� A Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife study in 2006 pegged the economic impacts of commercial and recreational fishing in Washington as supporting an estimated 16,374 jobs and $540 million in personal income. This new round of grants is expected to provide more than 300 jobs during the next four years. Information about the Salmon Recovery Funding Board and the Recreation and Conservation Office is available online at www. rco.wa.gov.

and Parks will use this grant to begin restoring the creek, which historically fed into Newaukum Creek, a tributary to the Green River. The county will build about threequarter mile of new stream channel, create open-water and emergent pools, place logs and tree root wads into the newly-created stream channel and wetland and replant the creek banks. Big Spring Creek will be rerouted from roadside ditches to the recreated channel. Additionally, King County will monitor and maintain the area for at least five years after construction. The project received slightly more than $131,000 from the Salmon Recovery Funding Board. King County will contribute $275,000, bringing the total cost of the project to more than $406,000.

Inside 4Hornet senior Riley Scott inspires Enumclaw swim and track teams, page 22. The junior set the previous record early in the 2010-11 season with a time of 1:01.38. The record-breaking pace is also a state-qualifying time. The Hornets dropped the South Puget Sound League 3A meet to Peninsula 10779. In addition to VanHoof’s victory, EHS earned wins from the 200 medley relay team of Thomas Petersen, VanHoof, Gabe Sales and Will Cooper, which finished in state-qualifying time of 1:45.47. Cooper also won the 100 butterfly in 56.97 and the 500 freestyle in 5:08.38. Petersen won the backstroke with a time of 58.30. All three times on the edge of state qualifying. The Hornets also got second-place finishes from Sales in the 100 backstroke, the 400 freestyle relay of Cooper, Petersen, Quinn Warner and VanHoof, VanHoof in the 200 individual medley and Logan Ross in the 100 freestyle.

The top-ranked Enumclaw High gymnastics program aced its toughest test of the season, topping a four-team field Dec. 14 at Auburn High. Among the opposition was the talented crew from Class 4A Thomas Jefferson High of Federal Way. When the chalk settled, Enumclaw had tallied 173.75 team points, slipping past Jefferson’s 170.95. Rogers High of Puyallup was third with 150.3 and the host Trojans trailed with 142.4. Jefferson’s Madi Kellar won two of the four events, scoring 37.10 points to take the all-around title. Enumclaw

EHS Gymnastics put five girls into the top 10, however, to claim team honors. Olivia Bannerot was second with a total of 36.50 and was followed by Madison Ward, third, 35.50; Molly Mattheis, fifth, 34.85; Emily Berte, eighth, 33.45; and Michelle McKinlay, 10th, 32.15. Bannerot won the vault with a score of 9.5, was third in both the bars and beam and tied for sixth in the floor exercise. Ward topped the field in the bars, scoring 9.10, was second in the beam and floor exercise and finished 25th in the vault.

Mattheis was third in the vault, fourth on the bars, fifth in the floor exercise and seventh on the beam. Berte tied for sixth in the floor exercise, placed sixth in the vault, was ninth on the beam and 11th on the bars. McKinlay was sixth on the bars, ninth in the vault, 13th in the floor exercise and 18th on the beam. Enumclaw’s Erica Bonthuis was 11th overall after placing ninth on the bars, 11th in the vault, 12th on the beam and 14th in the floor exercise.

Lady Hornets pull off one-point criteria victory By Brenda Sexton Staff Writer

First-year White River High girls wrestling coach Rich Valdez said he picked up a few more gray hairs Thursday night as the Hornets edged Rogers 37-36 in dual-match action. Rogers handed the Hornets a forfeit at 100 pounds and WRHS gave one back at 106 for a 6-all start to the match. “Then the craziness started,� Valdez said. The Rams pinned White River’s 112-pounder in 25 seconds. Hornet Morgan Shirey answered with a 59-second fall to tie the match at 12. White River gave the Rams six with a forfeit and they picked up another quick six with a pin, six more with a forfeit and another pin for a quick 36-12 lead.

WRHS girls prepare for toughest challenge By Kevin Hanson Editor

The White River High girls will hit the road during the holiday break for a trio of nonleague contests. The Hornets will trek to Kent Thursday to challenge Mount Rainier High at 1 p.m. at the ShoWare Center. It will be part of a busy day, with eight games on the schedule. The ShoWare contest shapes up to be one of the Hornets’ toughest challenges of the year. Mount Rainier presently is ranked No. 2 in the state’s Class 4A teams. The White River crew will cross the mountains for the Dec. 29-30 WilburEllis SunDome Shootout in Yakima. The first day, the Hornets will be paired against Lakeside High from Nine Mile Falls, just outside Spokane; the second day has White River taking on Burbank, another small school from eastern Washington.

Seattle tournament fills holiday calendar By Kevin Hanson Editor

A nonleague game against Sumner and a three-day hoopfest in Seattle will keep the Enumclaw High girls basketball team busy during the holiday break. The Hornets host Sumner at 7 tonight, Wednesday. Sumner plays in the South Puget Sound League’s 2A division. Then, between the holidays, the Hornet girls will take part in the King’s Holiday Tournament, hosted by King’s High. Opponents and game times have not been announced, but EHS will play three consecutive days, Dec. 28-30. The Enumclaw squad hosted North Thurston Monday and Capital Friday; results of those games could not be included here, but scores are posted at www.courierherald.com. The Hornets hosted Tacoma’s Stadium High Dec. 12 and rolled to an easy 57-21 victory. The win evened the team’s overall record at 2-2. Enumclaw was never really challenged by their Tacoma guests, who managed only five points in the first half. During those 16 minutes, the Hornets took control by scoring 28. Eleven Hornets found their way into the scoring column, led by Nadine Huff, who finished with 11 points.

Staff Writer

Kristen Green and KC Moulden earned top honors at the inaugural Lady Hornets Classic wrestling tournament Dec. 10. The round-robin, skill-based tournament was a joint effort between White River and Enumclaw high girls wrestling programs. It matched athletes on skill level, weight and experience at three bracket levels – state level; experienced, but not state level; and new to the sport. The tournament drew 14 teams from across the state and 125 wrestlers. Team scores were not kept. Green was among those with limited experience. She placed first in the

118-pound bracket. Moulden was placed in the experienced bracket where she won her 275pound division. Chantel Capps won three of four matches in the lower bracket at 195 pounds for second place. She currently has four wins on the season. The Hornets’ experienced 155pound Logann Erskine finished third. She went 2-1 for the day, but finished third due to criteria. She pinned champion Dylan Fagan from White River, but Fagan had two pins for the day. Hoquiam wrestler Samantha King also had two pins. Jade Paterson also placed third in

the top bracket. The 195-pounder dropped a decision to White River’s Sam Mitchell, then lost a decision before earning a pin. At 106 pounds, in the middle bracket, Jasmine Anderson lost her opening two matches before pinning Rebecca Kautz of Spanaway for third. Back in the top bracket, EHS’s Danielle Cormier finished third at 145 pounds. She dropped the first two matches before earning a 13-3 decision. Kasandra Renfrow finished fourth in the 155-pound top bracket. The Lady Hornets were at the Rogers Holiday Tournament Saturday, but results came too late to be printed here.

Inspiration comes from different places. Painters can be inspired by a beautiful sunset. Writers can be inspired by a good story. Athletes can be inspired by a underdog versus Goliath victory. Last year, the Enumclaw High boys swim team and the Hornets’ track team found its inspiration in teammate Riley Scott. Scott, a senior with special needs, is marking his fourth season in the water with the Hornets and come spring, plans to turn out for track again as well. It’s Scott’s work ethic in the water that earned him the respect of his teammates who, through a blind-balloting process, voted him Most Inspirational. “He’s always there,� 2010-11 team captain Travis Culp said. “Right after you race he’s there telling you you did your best. “He’s always happy, putting you in a good mood, laughing and telling jokes.� “He’s an all-around good guy. He’s awesome. There aren’t any words to describe him other than awesome.� “He gives all of his heart,� said Sam Horn, who served as team captain with Culp last season. “I wish more kids on this team were like Riley,� he said. “He’s at practice every day. He never goofs off. He swims the whole time and shows great character.� In track, Hornet captains were tasked with selecting someone who stuck out to them as a hard worker and team player for the Captains Award. That was Scott. “He is such an inspiration,� EHS track coach Janelle Murrell said. “Riley is a person who is committed and dedicated. He inspires others through his actions and caring personality.� “It’s fun. I just like practicing,� said Scott, whose speciality in the pool is freestyle and on the track is the 100-meter run, shot put and javelin. Scott, who raced to a personal-best in the 100-yard freestyle in February’s subdistrict swim meet, said he participates because he feels he can help the team. “It makes me happy and proud,� he said. Scott swam a leg of one of the Hornets’ 200 freestyle relay Thursday against Peninsula. The relay finished sixth. He also raced in two junior varsity freestyle heats and paced the pool deck as cheerleader for those heats he was not racing. 9-1 and earned the school’s first Seamount League football championship, tied with Sumner, with five members named first-team all-conference, four members on the second team and several members setting offensive and defensive league records.The team ended its season ranked third in state.

BAER FROM 1 Baer said they planned to land somewhere between Salem, Ore., and Bellingham, Wash., to be near Nancy’s family. They hopped in their VW bus and took off south and west across America, visiting friends and family along the way. When they landed in the Northwest, Nancy landed a job first in Tacoma. Shortly after, Bob was hired by the city of Enumclaw, where employees were encouraged to live in town. When Baer arrived he found himself in charge of a library building stressed by a growing community, the Stevenson-Yerxa Building which now houses the city’s Department of Community Development. It took three attempts before voters approved the bond issue desired to build the current library. It was one of the many changes during Baer’s tenure. The people who use the library and the library’s place as a resource for the community have changed little during the past three decades. Today, libraries continue to provide information. There are still children’s

programs, where parents bring toddlers to learn a love for reading. It’s a sanctuary for the public to relax and read. Baer said there’s been change, but it’s in the delivery method. “When I started there wasn’t a PC in the building,� he said. Staff doesn’t pull a 1963 Newsweek off a shelf these days, but if there’s a request for that particular issue, they help patrons find it online or in a video file. “I still think libraries can be a good guide for helping people find things, especially in the information age we live in,� Baer said. That information age, he said, makes the resources of a smaller public library greater today. “Today, so much is online now, people need to know where to look, or aren’t aware of certain resources,� he said. “There are resources we still purchase that are subscription-based on the Internet that we provide.� Subscriptions and other programs have been hard to keep during these tough financial times. “The last two years the budget has been disastrous,� Baer said. “When you don’t get a book budget or materials budget, that’s disastrous. That’s the heart of the library, along with

staff.� As part of staffing changes in the city, Baer found himself leading Community Services in addition to his librarian job. The extra work was a pleasant addition, he said. As a former Vista worker and with his wife Nancy’s background in the field, social services was not too great a stretch for him. As a bonus, he said, he was able to work with wonderful people at the senior and youth centers and on the Human Services Advisory Board. The past couple of years, the city has been considering turning library services over to the independent King County Library System. Although Baer will not be part of the plan, he will be watching to see how things unfold. He worries about the people. “When you talk about the hard times it’s been hard on the staff,� he said. “I’m supportive of their needs. “I never envisioned working forever,� he said. “I saw some point of an end, and I guess it’s now. Who knows what the future holds?� The clearest part of the future, come Jan. 1, is to have a hot meal for Nancy at dinner time. “Dinner on the table when she gets home, that’s Numeral Uno,� Baer

laughed. Also on the menu will be volunteering with the Enumclaw Education Foundation, where he will be joining its board of directors. He would like to get Enumclaw’s history in order. Through the years, the library has become keeper of some of the town’s history – photographs, pioneer oral histories, the Rural Heritage Project – and he’d like to see everything organized and preserved. “There are projects,� he

said. “Ongoing projects that I’d still like to work on. Now I have the time.� As time marches on, he said, some local history could be lost. “There are cassette tapes that are 40 years old. They need a format to be better preserved,� he said. “There’s a lot of history. It’s not been

You need a tangible plan for today and tomorrow

When out on my lawn, (it’s brown and abused) I could see poor old Santa, looking confused. No list had been left for Santa to see, no gardening gifts were under the tree.

His knees are so dirty, his back how it aches, his boots stomp on slugs, (he gives them no breaks) Santa only works winter, you can surely see why, The rest of the year it’s a gardening high. Elves plant in the spring, pull weeds all summer, in fall they all harvest, but winter’s a bummer

But wait there’s still time, it’s not Christmas yet, and gardening gifts are the quickest to get. You can forget the silk tie, the fluffy new sweater, give something to make the garden grow better. If she wants a gift shiny, then don’t be a fool, it’s not a dumb diamond, but a sparkling new tool.

And so Christmas gives Santa a part-time employment, ‘Till spring when the blooms are his real life enjoyment.

If fragrance is listed you can forget French perfume, it’s a pile of manure that’ll make gardeners swoon. Give night crawlers, not nightgowns, the type of hose that gives water. (Anything for the kitchen is not worth the bother.)

So ask the big guy for garden gifts this year, Seeds, plants and tools, Santa holds them all dear. You see malls may be crowded, vendors hawking their ware, but visit a nursery, stress-free shopping is there.

Krebs’ budget suggestions passed 6-1, with Elfers rejecting the requests. Elfers said he had submitted a list of questions to the chamber following the council’s Nov. 28 meeting, but had not received a reply. He also questioned whether the chamber was current on its rent payments to the city. “In good conscience, I cannot fund the chamber in this amount,� Elfers said.

It’s seen as a one-time alternative, as the city will ask voters to annex into the King County Library System during an upcoming election. Traditionally, the library has been supported by the city’s general fund. That contribution has been whittled in recent years, however, as the struggle to match revenues with expenditures grew more difficult. The council also agreed to contracts with three employee groups during its Dec. 12 session. The largest entity is represented by the American

Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees. That group represents workers in finance, parks, utilities, courts, the library, golf course, senior center and Enumclaw Expo Center. The two-year pact will save the city a reported $94,000. Employees will take two furlough days each year without pay and will receive no cost-ofliving adjustment. A new insurance plan will see employees paying higher premiums while experiencing greater annual deductibles. The council also approved contracts with the Police Officers Association and a separate group that includes police dispatchers and jail employees.

cover a cardboard star with the foil. It was beautiful!� Al, age 94, when asked to recall his most favorite Christmas memory, laughingly states “I wouldn’t say that it was my favorite Christmas memory, but it is my most vivid!� When he was a very young child, growing up in Pennsylvania, the Christmas tree was always placed in the sitting room on the second floor of their two-story house. Small candles were placed all over the tree (remember this was before stringed lights). Well, one evening the tree caught on fire. Although he was only 4 or 5 at the time, he remembers very clearly standing there in the room watching his father open the bay windows and throwing the flaming tree out the window while his mother shouted “don’t set the curtains on fire.� That would be a memory to last 90 years! Vivian, 80, states that her earliest memory of Christmas was crawling under her father’s roll-top desk and looking at all the decorations hanging on the tree which caught the light from the room and shined so brightly. Lois, 63, recalls a very special holiday memory. “I was very small, barely walking, and we stayed Christmas Eve with my grandparents. We went to bed early, but before we went to sleep, we heard a noise on the roof – it was Santa and his reindeer. To this day, when I go to bed on Christmas Eve, I still wait to hear Santa on the roof.� While all the stories shared were very different, there was a common thread. The things most remembered from holidays as a child were never purchased gifts. Family get-togethers, activities with neighbors, or simple pleasures were the memories that lasted decades. So this holiday season, as we are all pressured to buybuy-buy from television ads

and magazines and Martha Stewart wants us to set the “perfect table� and we feel we must send the “best� card – the hustle and bustle is not what the season is all about. Your son or daughter of 7 years old will not, when they are a senior, remember the electronic toy they “just had to have� this Christmas, but will instead hold close the memories of family, community and traditions. So let’s learn from the experience of our elders we should be making memories – not shopping lists! The staff of the Enumclaw Senior Activity Center wishes for each of you the happiest of holidays and a New Year filled with peace, health and happiness. (This article is reprinted from a previous year to reduce the writer’s stress level this year!)
