The Redmond man who struck and killed a Kirkland cyclist plead not guilty to charges of vehicular homicide Dec. 22.

Nominated for best Folk Album, original band members met at Kirkland Junior High BY MATT PHELPS mphelps@kirklandreporter.com
or most kids the last day of school is not a big deal - other than waiting for summer vacation. For Robin Pecknold and Skyler Skjelset, the last day of seventh grade at Kirkland Junior High would change their lives and popular music. “He was friends with some of my friends,” said Skjelset, about the day his friendship with Pecknold began. “We hung out over the summer. We both started playing guitar at the same time. But it took a year or two to find our musical connection.” But that connection has taken the two friends around the world with their band the Fleet Foxes.
Their second full-length album, “Helplessness Blues,” was recently nominated for a Grammy. “We never really had aspirations past just playing together,” said Skjelset over the phone from New York. “It has never been about getting somewhere with it. We just love playing music.” The band has been around since the two attended Lake Washington High School when they played under the name The Pineapples. The band’s first show was at the Old
Fire House Teen Center in Redmond. “We played two or three times at the Lion’s Den in Bothell and Victor’s Coffee in Redmond,” said Skjelset. The band got noticed pretty quickly after changing its name, adding a few more members to the lineup and playing their first show as the Fleet Foxes at Neumos on Capital Hill in Seattle. The band signed with the Seattle music label Sub Pop, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Records, in January

2008. They released their first album that year, simply titled “Fleet Foxes,” and toured for a year to support it. Skjelset said the members of the band have a pretty diverse background in styles. “It’s all pretty eclectic. Robin is more into folk music, Morgan (Henderson) was in the thrash band ‘Blood Brothers’ in Kirkland and I really like stuff like Sonic Youth,” said Skjelset. “Our sound is pretty organic.” The band utilizes vocal harmonies and acoustic instruments. Pecknold writes most of the vocals and music, while Skjelset brings a distinct lead [ more FOXES page 2 ]
After years of struggling to find space to offer youth tennis programs, Tennis Outreach Programs (TOPs) will soon have a home of its own. The Redmond-based nonprofit, which offers lowcost tennis classes to underserved and at-risk Eastside youth, secured Travis Roach $1 million in funding to renovate a 58,000-squarefoot facility in Kirkland. Construction is underway on the vacant warehouse in Kirkland’s Totem Lake neighborhood and is set for completion by the end of January. The new public Outreach & Performance Tennis Center (OPTC) will include six full-sized indoor tennis courts, with six additional 36-foot courts designed to give kids 8 and under a less intimidating introduction to the game. The facility is located at 10822 117th Place N.E. just off of I-405 in Kirkland. Marceil Whitney, who founded TOPS in 2003, is a tennis educator who has taught and coached tennis for over 36 years. She said the Eastside is currently underserved in public indoor tennis courts. There are only 16 public indoor tennis courts in King County, only one of which is located on the Eastside in Bellevue.

He said he likes branching out to new instruments to keep things fresh and it helps him to learn more about guitar. “I think this music draws influence and inspiration from popular music and folk rock of the mid ‘60s to the early ’70s …,” Pecknold wrote on the Sub Pop website. Pecknold sites musicians such as Peter, Paul and Mary, John Jacob Niles, Bob Dylan, The Byrds, Neil Young, CSN and Judee Sill as inspiring the Fleet Foxes sound. “The Northwest is such a beautiful and inspiring place,” said Skjelset. “I can’t imagine the music sounding the same if we grew up somewhere like L.A. or New York. Growing up in Kirkland was part of that.” That sound has put the band in an interesting spot between alternative music and folk music. Their Grammy nomination comes in the Best Folk Album category and

But despite the fact that the band has scattered a bit from the Seattle area where it got its start and is on the road a lot, they still have a connection with each other and the Pacific Northwest. Pecknold, who grew up in Redmond and Magnolia, along with the Houghton and Highlands neighborhoods of Kirkland, now lives in Portland. Skjelset recently moved to New York. “I lived in the same house all my life,” said Skjelset about growing up in Kirkland. “And I plan to come back for Christmas to see my parents.” The 54th Annual Grammy Awards will air on CBS Feb. 12.

BRIEFS
Oath of Office Ceremony At the Jan. 3 Kirkland City Council meeting, Council members Bob Sternoff (Position No. 2), Toby Nixon (Position No. 4), and Dave Asher (Position No. 6) will take a ceremonial Oath of Office administered by City Municipal Court Judge Michael Lambo. Kirkland residents are invited to the ceremony that begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Council Chambers at City Hall, 123 5th Avenue. Also at this meeting, the council will select a Mayor and Deputy Mayor who will serve through Dec. 31, 2013.
520 tolls The City of Kirkland is encouraging drivers to be aware, prepared and patient before, during and after tolling begins on the 520 bridge on Dec. 29. An informational webpage has been created at www. kirklandwa.gov/520tolling that includes useful infor-
mation, helpful hints and online resources. Good to Go passes will also be sold at Kirkland City Hall from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 4-5. The Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) will closely monitor all of the Lake Washington corridors to determine how tolling is affecting traffic and will report its findings to the State Legislature, local governments, including the City of Kirkland, and the State Transportation Commission. WSDOT will conduct before and after tolling traffic counts. The City of Kirkland has conducted pre-tolling traffic counts and will continue to monitor traffic impacts particularly along the Lake Washington Blvd./Market Street/100th Avenue corridor and the N.E. 116th Street/Juanita Drive corridor. Ridership is expected to increase on Metro routes that cross SR 520. In response, service has been added to Route 255 and other key routes. Park and Ride lots like Kingsgate and South Kirkland may fill up sooner than usual, so plan ahead.

Kirkland robotics group ranks 7th in First Lego League competition A robotics group from Kamiakin Junior High participated at the regional qualifying round for the First Lego League robotics competition on Dec. 3. It was the first year the team, the “Flying Penguins” has worked together and their robot managed to rack up 151 points overall, ranking 7th out of almost 30 teams. Team members included Judy Brewer, Joel Frostad, Alexander Novokhodko, Nick Teoh and Matthew vonAllman. The theme for the competition this year centered on food safety and the Flying Pengiuns focused on toxins in fish and ways to avoid contamination.
Registration for 7 Hills of Kirkland Registration is now underway for the 2012 7 Hills of Kirkland, presented by Evergreen Healthcare. One of the Northwest’s premier cycling events, 7 Hills will be held on May 28, 2012, Memorial Day, at Marina Park in Kirkland. Whether you choose the traditional 7 Hill Route (approximately 40 miles), the popular Metric Century Route, or the challenging Century Route, you’ll enjoy the scenery and support KITH. Travel at your own pace through urban, suburban and rural roads on a holiday when cyclists seem to outnumber vehicles. Follow the signs and “Dan Henry’s” to great food stops, challenging ascents and wonderful descents. Climb Winery Hill and be rejuvenated by the applause of your own cheering section and the lovely strains of a bagpiper. All of this for such a great cause, to end homelessness. The event is a fund raiser for KITH. KITH assists individuals and families on the Eastside who are caught in a homelessness crisis. Whether people are living in their cars, housed temporarily in shelters, or facing eviction, KITH will work with them to stabilize their situation.
For more information about the event or to register, visit www.7hillskirkland.org.
“Marceil’s programs have operated for many years in local community centers and public courts on a smaller scale and now finally we have a home for those programs so we can serve so many more kids,” said Travis Roach, executive director of OPTC. “And having six dedicated courts that we don’t have to go rent from the city, or if we’re forced not to have a program because a community center closes, is huge.” Roach said the new facility will provide tennis opportunities for all ages and all skill levels. “We want it to be a complete public tennis center, so we want it to be a place where everyone can come and learn,” said Roach. “Whether it’s a 3 or 4 year old who touches a racket for the first time or a high school player who’s been playing since they were 3 or 4, we want to offer something for everyone.” The facility will provide much-needed affordable public indoor courts for adult and junior play. OPTC will sublease courts to Northwest High Performance Tennis, a nationally-recognized junior high performance program, run
by Dan Willman and Mike Calkins. For kids, the program aims to serve 150-200 kids per day, providing youth with a safe and productive place to play tennis. The facility will offer dedicated court time to youth, as wells as various programs before and after school. In addition to tennis, youth tutoring services and fitness programs will be given. “We’ve seen from the kids in our community center programs ... that just having a positive thing to look forward to each day, whether it’s a beforeor after-school program, (helps with their education)” added Roach, who
volunteered with TOPS for many years and most recently served as general manager of the Mercer Island Beach Club where participation in the tennis programs doubled during his tenure. The new nonprofit facility will offer scholarships to provide youth in need with rackets, shoes and training equipment. He said the programs will also focus on fun. “Some perceptions about tennis have been where you see an instructor feeding balls to kids standing in lines and that’s not the way tennis is anymore, especially the way we’re teaching it,” said Roach. “It’s very active, keep-
ing the kids moving and engaged.” Roach, a former tennis coach who started playing tennis himself just before high school, said he looks forward to expanding TOPs programs at the new facility. “Just getting to see the growth of kids through the tennis experience has always been something that I’ve enjoyed,” said Roach, adding, “The number of opportunities that tennis has provided to me, I’m excited to share that with others.”

he 2011 year in news for Kirkland had everything from “A”nnexation to “Z”oning codes disputes. But some of the biggest stories were also some of the most tragic in the city’s history. The Reporter began the year with its five-week long in-depth series on the Totem Lake Malls. We looked into the history, financial issues, ownership and future of the place that had been called everything from a “ghost town”to the “white elephant.”The series generated a nationwide response like any other we have ever received. The new downtown Kirkland Transit Center opened in March to great fanfare. The transit center was expanded and construction shut down Third Street for months. House Bill 1812 nearly started a war in Olympia and Kirkland. It aimed to shutdown the Houghton Community Council but residents fought the measure and won a reprieve. In April, Rep. Jay Inslee visited Lake Washington High School for Democracy Day. The event was coordinated with schools across the country and featured a speech by the now candidate for Washington State Governor. Former astronaut Dr. Bonnie J. Dunbar was the guest speaker at the annual Lake Washington School District luncheon at Juanita High School. The event raised $145,000 for the district. Kirkland said goodbye to one of its most trailblazing former mayors Doris Cooper, as she died at age 85. Along with being the first woman mayor of Kirkland, Cooper was partly responsible for purchasing land on the Kirkland waterfront and turning it into city parks, a feature that defines the city to this day. The Juanita girls softball team won the state title over Bainbridge Island during June. One of the worst tragedy’s in the city’s history came to a close for many as Leonid Milkin moved back into his home, which was rebuilt by community members. Milkin, a service member, was stationed in Iraq in 2006 when his family was murdered in their
Kirkland home and it was burned to the ground. The City of Kirkland became the 12th-largest in the state in June after a long anticipated annexation of the Finn Hill, Juanita and Kingsgate neighborhoods. During that same month contractors hired to renovate Juanita Beach Park were fired after they failed to complete the project on time. The park finally opened three months later after a new contractor was hired to complete the job. A six month string of tragic deaths began when Kirkland resident Steve Lacey was killed by a drunk driver July 24 on busy N.E. 85th Street. Tragic news continued in August as a cyclist was killed on N.E. Juanita Drive. A second cyclist would lose his life in December. September saw the announcement that LWSD Superintendent Dr. Chip Kimball would step down following the school year. The announcement of the Potalla Village project on Lake Washington Boulevard would set off a fight between residents, the city and the developer over the scale of the project. The project has been put on hold as the city takes time to reassess the zoning codes and the Comprehensive Plan for the area. The fall election gave Kirkland its first council member from
the newly annexed neighborhood of Kingsgate, as Toby Nixon narrowly defeated two-term incumbent Jessica Greenway for Position No. 4. Kirkland father Solomon Metalwala’s son Sky went missing in November and the search continues for the boy. Sky was left in his mother’s car in Bellevue on the side of the road and she claims he was gone when she returned after going to get gas for the vehicle. Metalwala would gain custody of his daughter Maile in December. The owner and cook at Amici, an Italian restaurant in downtown Kirkland, were charged with rape of a woman at the establishment after hours. Tragedy struck again at the end of November as Scarlett Paxton, 19, of Juanita was allegedly stabbed to death by LewisMcCord soldier Dakota Wolf. The year finished on a more optimistic note for the future of Kirkland, as the City Council voted to approve the purchase of the old BNSF rail line through the city for $5 million. The property could be used for a bike and pedestrian trail or even Lightrail.

Timeliness is critical for Eastside Rail Corridor development We are very pleased and excited about the newly purchased railroad line segment. We were long-time bicyclists, but no longer have any easy access to a safe local bicycle trail. We are also both avid walkers and a new walking trail would be just terrific. Please count us in for support for a walking/biking path. As for a rail commuter corridor, the surrounding communities will have to come up with a master plan. In the meantime, a walking/biking path would benefit all of us. The issue of timeliness is critical. These issues can be studied to death as we all know. We hope we don’t fall into the same trap the East Lake Sammamish trail did for over 10 years. Let’s get the ball rolling so we
can use this wonderful asset as soon as possible.
Chuck and Cynthia Telford, Kirkland
City’s indebtedness still growing Evidently you haven’t followed what’s happening in Kirkland. Even with the state’s 10-year reimbursement of a percentage of sales taxes, the city’s indebtedness will be $40 million greater than it would have been without annexation. Add to that the $30 million plus for buildings and millions more for roads, bridges, surface water management and parks being brought up to city standards, you have a huge financial burden on the taxpayers brought on by the legislators failure to act responsibly. Kirkland’s quality of life will decrease; citizens will be paying more for fewer services, and they will be forced to pay for broken promises in
an area that cannot have the services they want without having someone else pay for all or some of them. All of this on top of the council preventing the citizens to even take an advisory vote on annexation. Promises were made by Jane Hague without King Council’s approval at her meetings with just two Kirkland council members (Joan McBride and Mary-Alyce Burleigh) who also did not have their council’s approval in their discussions with Ms. Hague. Add to that the efforts for Mr. Toby Nixon trying to regain political power with hopes to become a Kirkland Council member from the newly annexed area and he ran a successful hypocritical campaign against Jessica Greenway. Then, State Rep. Larry Springer collaborated with the now Kirkland Mayor McBride to pass state legislation to assist with the cost of annexation. They were in cahoots with each other in trying to gain political power
for the council. He’s now saying: don’t blame me for not knowing what the Governor would do in the budget crunch. Why didn’t he become aware of the risk of budget reductions and alert the citizens of the pending possible actions. He made many phone calls and had many meetings with state, county, and city staff and elected officials. He knew of the risk and kept the citizens in the dark hoping it did not happen. I also cringe when I hear that Kirkland cherry picked all the revenueproducing areas leaving the county bearing the cost for urban services in the unincorporated areas. Over the years, the unincorporated areas have had the same opportunity to become incorporated or annexed to gain revenue producing areas.

What is next for Kirkland? T The volunteerism embodied in the KDA, 4th of July, the new Kudos Kirkland and other groups is special. This esprit du corps inspires residents and businesses to volunteer their “time and treasure” to clean, decorate, plant flower pots and organize to accomplish community needs, some that were funded by the city in better times. This can and should happen all over Kirkland – it is time to do the same for North and Bill Vadino
FINAL THOUGHTS
South Juanita, Kingsgate, Houghton, Bridle Trails and our other areas. Not only are there current and potential volunteers and donors in the wings, many of the businesses that step up now with time and/or treasure (that would take a full page of this paper to name) have other potential partners that are ready to step up. Second, we need to continue to build on our past successes to help our non-profits. These are in the areas of community need (those needing housing,
These needs would be under one banner, encompassing an annual “one ask” linked with focused fund-raising events under the diverse umbrella areas of the arts, the underserved and education/youth. A foundation would be nimble and would also be able to respond to emerging needs, such as the reality that today volunteer donations augment the school’s free breakfast and lunch programs by providing backpacks of food so the same students can bring food home for the weekend. And this is in Kirkland, 98033. The key is getting there together as “one.” There is an adage that much can be
done when there is selflessness, sharing and no issue of whom gets credit. I think we are up to the task, especially now with another 40,000 citizens who share our values. These are movements and strategies I hope would be considered and I would support if I were to stay in my current role — and, in fact, in my new ventures I would volunteer to assist. So, with respect, those are my thoughts as I write this on Christmas Eve. Let the dialogue begin.
Bill Vadino is the executive director emeritus of the Greater Kirkland Chamber and KDA.

hanks to the Reporter for the opportunity to give some thoughts on where we should aspire to go as a community as I transition roles from the Kirkland Chamber and Downtown Association to oversee the Kirkland Concours and other ventures. It has been a momentous 10 years in Kirkland and it was fun to personally play a part because of the kind of community we have. Residents and businesses have a heritage, resilience and commitment that many communities only dream of having. As I look to the future, I think we all can agree with Robert Frost who said, “We have many miles to go and promises to keep.” What is next? I would venture we need to continue to be vigilant about the strengths of our community and take it a significant step further. In other words, and in deference to a group formed by U2’s Bono, let’s call it “One Kirkland.” First, the magic of downtown needs to be spread to the other neighborhoods and business districts of Kirkland.
medical care, employment and sustenance), the arts and, of course, the needs of our youth and education system. Citizens, businesses and most notably service organizations (Rotary, Kiwanis, KITH, etc.) are generous and step up to meet these needs. The challenge is that there is so much need and so many events to help support these causes that perhaps the volunteer commitment and energy expended can be used more effectively and more efficiently. Thus, it is time for us to seriously look at an idea espoused by many, most notably former mayor and “first citizen” Bill Woods: the forming of a Kirkland Foundation.

During the same post season run, the Juanita wrestlers finished in third at KingCo, while Lake Washington had three state finishers at the 3A meet in February. Joel Navas finished sixth, Jerry Petrechko was fifth and Jack Michels was fourth. Juanita’s Jeremiah Laufasa was second overall. In boys basketball, Lake Washington’s season ended in the district tournament in February against Rainier Beach. The Kangs were 15-11 overall. In March, Kirkland

he last 12 months have, as is typical, been busy in Kirkland – especially in sports. Local teams have hit new highs and individuals have accomplished impressive feats. In January, local tennis phenom Henrik Wiersholm heated up the court overseas, playing in the international Les Petitis As tournament in France. The Kirkland native, 13, also reached the finals in
an English tournament in singles and doubles. He competes with the U.S. Tennis Association. Weirsholm later went on to compete in the World Junior Tennis Finals in the Czech Republic last August. The Juanita girls basketball team had a strong winter season, winning the KingCo league title for the first time since 1987. They went on to fall to Cleveland in the district tournament. The Rebels finished with a 19-7 record.
readers met Ruby Engreitz, a Kirkland native and University of Washington gymnast. After missing her senior season during high school because of injury, she bounced back in college stronger than ever. She had an extremely strong season, both in the gym and academically. The Juanita girls softball team won the 3A state title over Memorial Day weekend, beating Bainbridge 6-1 for the win. The team also won the KingCo title and its third straight district title. The Lake Washington baseball team capped a strong spring season at the end of May with a run to the first round of the state tournament. They lost to Richland 14-8. The Juanita girls track team finished seventh as a team in May during the 3A state track meet in Tacoma. The Rebels top finisher was Alanna Coker in second place in the 100 meter race.

It appears KingCo schools can prepare for some reclassification. While the numbers won’t be official until next month when the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association meets, it’s very likely there are changes coming for KingCo schools. Based on current enrollment numbers Lake Washington High School will be dropping down to compete in 2A, while Juanita will stay at 3A. Lake Washington Athletic Director George Crowder said the school plays where it lands in terms of classification. Currently the Kangs have an enrollment of 998, according to the Lake Washington School District website, putting the school well within the 2A range of 5131085. Juanita High School sits at 1036, also within the 2A range, but has opted up to play in 3A.

...obituaries Vance L. Nixon
January 31, 1932 – December 20, 2011
Vance LaVerne Nixon, father of Kirkland city councilmember-elect Toby Nixon, passed away on December 20 in Redding, California, after a long illness. He was born January 31, 1932 in Dayton, Ohio. In 1943 he moved to North Hollywood, CA with his parents and four younger siblings. During the Korean War he proudly served as a medical technician in the U.S. Air Force. Afterward, he worked in a variety of positions and businesses including manufacturing and sales. Genealogy was his passion for many years, and he created an extensive family history database going back over 400 years. He married his first wife Patricia Hodgkins in 1956 and they had three sons. In 1970 he moved to Redding with his sons. He married his second wife Joan Severtson in 1976, and they were married over 34 years until her passing in July, 2011. He is survived by his first wife Patricia, who lives in Kirkland; his three sons, Toby of Kirkland, WA, William of Sacramento, CA, and Lawrence of San Diego, CA; sisters Mildred and Elizabeth; brothers Raymond and Leslie; and eight grandchildren. He was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Services will be held at Lawncrest Memorial Chapel in Redding on December 30. 566134
Frank M. Gough At the age of 79, Frank passed peacefully of liver cancer at home on December 20, 2011. He was born to Helen and Clifford Gough April 26, 1932 in Sweets Mining Camp, Sweets, Utah, which has now disappeared from the map. Frank served his country with the U.S. Army during the Korean Confl ict and his true passions were hunting and fishing which he excelled at. He was an avid fisherman from the time he picked up a rod and reel. He hunted the high hills of Utah at an early age and continued on to adulthood. Many knew Frank as a man of excellent work ethics and a good sense of humor. Frank was preceded in death by his loving wife of 48 years, Sharron, with whom they had 5 children. Alan (deceased), Sharra (deceased), Lisa, Jan and Jill, and 4 grandchildren, Khayla, A.J., Chandler and Shane. His greatest achievement in life was achieving the status of “GREAT” father, husband, grandfather, brother, son and friend. He is survived by his second wife, Jody and daughters Kelly and Terry, and brother Brooks. Frank gave many loving hours to the Kirkland First Baptist Church over the years and was an active member of the Rotary Club of Bellevue Overlake. His medical problems in later years curbed his volunteering efforts. In Lieu of flowers, remembrances can be made to Bellevue Overlake Rotary and the Harbor Club 777 N.E. 8th Ave. Bellevue, WA 98004. For the many lives that Frank touched, a celebration of his life will be held on January 7, 2012, at 11:00am at the First Baptist Church 701 First Ave., Kirkland, WA 98083. Lunch to follow the memorial service. YOU MADE ME LAUGH A THOUSAND TIMES. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME YOU EVER MADE ME CRY. Loving you, Jody. 565367

sational,” said Lovitt. “Polly would write the scripts and the music, sew the costumes, all kinds of things.” Lovitt said his wife was gifted at working with the middle-school age group, especially the girls. “I think a lot of them kind of saw her as a surrogate mother,” he said. Throughout her life, Polly encouraged women to find self-fulfillment, and she was particularly interested when women took up nontraditional careers, for instance, truck driving. After Polly died in December 2010, Lovitt set out to preserve her legacy. He is writing a book about her life, using as a backdrop decadesworth of letters Polly wrote to her family and meticulous scrapbooks she compiled. He created the music scholarship to honor her in perpetuity

education in 1952, a master’s in music education in 1960 and a doctorate in education in 1966. Polly grew up in Emporia. During her junior and senior years at KU, she sang in the KU Chorale, a 16-member choir directed by nationally known musician Clayton Krehbiel. She described this as one of her most meaningful experiences at KU. After graduating from KU, Polly shared her contralto voice in prestigious choirs, including the Washington National Cathedral choir and the Kansas City Symphony Chorus. Later, as a middleschool music teacher, Polly turned her talents and energy to inspiring a love of music in her students. When needed, she even would develop student music shows from scratch. “Her programs were sen-
