NB bank job: Was it ‘AK-47 Bandit’? Armed man who held up Chase could be a California fugitive
By Carol Ladwig
Like a lot of people, Dana Nohavec struggled to stick with an exercise program. It didn’t matter what type of exercise she tried, she couldn’t do it regularly, but it wasn’t a loss of interest that stopped her. “I’ve never been athletic, ever,” says the 25-year Snoqualmie resident and teacher at Snoqualmie Elementary School. “Every time I start to try to get in shape, knowing exercise is so vital, I’d just end up hurting something. My knee would swell up, or my ankle would break, or…” Or some other symptom of her Crohn’s Disease would flare up, and Nohavec, now training for her firstever triathlon in September, would have to give up on working out.

The man wanted for shooting a police officer, two bank robberies and one attempted robbery in California earlier this year may be the same man who took over the North Bend branch of Chase Bank just before closing on Friday, July 6. Dubbed the “AK-47 Bandit” by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the man wanted in the California robberies looks similar to the man who took an undisclosed amount of cash from the North Bend bank. The weapons used in each robbery were also similar, a black assault rifle, probably an AK-47, with a drum magazine. See BANDIT, 5

Three months ago, Keller and boyfriend Carson Brammer were taking their love of video games to a new level. The teens had dated for 15 months, drawn together by common interests and goals. Carson would haul a 32-inch television over to Kaylene’s North Bend house, or they’d push their computer monitors together, then explore and adventure in virtual realms like Skyrim or Portal.

Spicy fun for all ages at North Bend Block Party Nine people hungry for adventure—“Brave souls, every one,” remarked emcee Kyle Twede—lined up to test their taste buds Saturday evening, July 14. The scene was the Twede’s Cafe Walk of Fire wing eating contest at the Bendigo stage, part of the day’s big slate of activities for North Bend’s third annual Block Party, which, as usual, did not disappoint. The bold eaters, McKinley Cook, Min Ji, Mike and Lizzie Teague, Jeff Jones, Chris Littlejohn, Chris Hammond, Phil Lacefield Jr., and Logan Hernandez munched chicken wings doused with pepper sauce that ranged from 47 times hotter than Tabasco sauce to 4,700 times. Sweating, with tongues hanging out, grimacing and hollering, eight of the group survived the challenge, cheered on by the crowd. Lizzie Teague bowed out after wing two, soothing her taste buds with ice cream as the rest forged on. “I can’t feel my tongue!” exclaimed Ji after wing three, slathered in Ghost Pepper sauce. The North Bend Block Party pleased many with live music, an artist showcase, children’s activities and vendor booths.

Deadly decision
“She was good,” Carson remembers. Kaylene played better than anyone he knew. She was creative, too. Soon, he and Kaylene were dreaming of worlds of their own, then building virtual models. “We always talked about it. We had ideas,” said Carson. He made the maps and backgrounds, while Kaylene envisioned the characters and their stories. When her family members started asking her to get serious about college, she followed her dreams, and was working on a game development path. Then her happy future came to an abrupt, shockingly violent end.

In Brief Church on the Ridge, 35131 S.E. Douglas Ave. Gutwein is the founder of Hoops of Hope, an organization dedicated to helping African children affected by AIDS. Each Hoops of Hope fundrais-
er, including the one held in Snoqualmie last March, is a basketball-shooting event, in which participants, mainly children, obtain sponsorships to raise money for the organization. The organization formed after Gutwein, in the spring of 2004, saw a video about children who lost their parents to AIDS. He
decided to shoot free throws on World AIDS Day, 2,057 of them, to represent the number of African children who would be orphaned that day because of AIDS. Women of Vision, a volunteer ministry of World Vision, will host Gutwein’s presentation. Learn more at www. wovwashington.org/eastside, or www.hoopsofhope.org.
Peter Keller, the North Bend double-murder suspect who killed himself in April to avoid capture, may have had doubts about murdering his family, but he had none about the outcome. In a video that he made of himself in the weeks before the April 22 murders of his wife Lynnettee and daughter Kaylene, Keller was frank about killing himself, if necessary. Talking into the camera, a disheveled Keller described Peter keller how wet the winter had been, Murder suspect and how he was waiting for the weather to change so he could finish supplying his bunker and “… finally do what I have to do, get it out of the way.… At this point, I don’t know what’s going to happen. I may get caught right away. Basically, if I get caught, I’m just going to shoot myself. I could be dead in two weeks, or three weeks, I don’t know.” Keller didn’t specify what he had to do, but he knew police would be looking for him after he did it. He also suggested that he had no other choice. “I don’t think anyone knows where I’m at, but if they put it together,” he says, pausing and looking around the woods he’s hiking through. “At this point, I have to take that chance… I do have my escape, and that’s death (he laughs). I can always shoot myself, and I’m OK with that.” Police say Keller murdered his family by shooting both women in the head with a silenced weapon, then set fire to their North Bend home to cover the crimes, before fleeing to an underground bunker he’d been building for years on Rattlesnake Ridge. He was found dead inside the bunker on Saturday, April 28, the morning after King County Sheriff’s Office SWAT team members had surrounded the bunker and attempted to force him out. The video was part of the evidence officials recovered at his home, but it offers few answers to the many questions surrounding the three deaths. Keller says he used to question his plan, but then decided it made sense, never referring to anything specific. “Just the more I’ve thought about it, the more I understand it. I don’t really feel bad about it. It’s just the way it is. Certain things happen that cause this to happen.” In other excerpts released last week, Keller describes his stockpile of supplies, gives a tour of the bunker and lists the load being taken up the hill to his bunker, sometimes referring to himself, sometimes using the word “we.” At the start of what he claimed would be his final video, “about two weeks before the end,” he interchanged “I” and “we”, and referred to “this project.” He said he was beginning to “come to terms with it,” too. “I’m getting to the point where just trying to live, and pay bills, and live as a civilian, and go to work, that just freaks me out. It’s actually more comfortable for me to think about living out here, robbing banks and pharmacies, just taking what I want for as long as I can. At least it will be exciting. It won’t be boring. And I don’t have to worry about Lynette or Kaylene, and everything will be taken care of. It will just be me.”

Emergency response at park
Look, Mom, there’s a body in the dugout Here in the Snoqualmie Valley, we’re well versed in the need for search-and-rescue missions. It’s a necessity of living, working and playing this close to the wilderness. However, it is time to find a new staging area for search-and-rescue missions into the Central Cascade wilderness areas. Torguson Park is a very busy community park—six different activities besides just hanging out in the shade of a tree and staring at Mount Si are available here. During the latest incident, the Valley was enjoying some of the best weather we’ve had all year. For days, there was no access allowed to this community space. It was handed over to search-and-rescue crews, up to three helicopters, K-9 units and a fuel truck. At approximately 4:30 p.m. last Monday, July 9, once the sad news came down from the mountain that the missing hiker had lost his life; a body bag was unloaded out of a search-and-rescue helicopter at Torguson Park. But, no ambulance or other appropriate vehicle to transport the deceased was anywhere in sight. They put the body in the first-base dugout of Torguson’s Majors field, where many a family’s children play, including the Challenger League. It was nearly another two hours before the body was moved out of that dugout and transported out of the park, and it was unclear who finally took care of things. I can appreciate that the authorities on the scene were trying to keep the body private from the sensation-seeking eyes of the media. It’s easy to imagine that there was some sort of lag in the chain of custody for the body. But, a kid’s playing field? There are protocols, rules, and laws about how to handle a body. The handling of this hiker’s remains seemed very mismanaged, not to mention poorly placed. This is not to take anything away from the crews who volunteer, or whose occupation it is to participate in these missions. They are a rare breed and helped to bring closure to the hiker’s family by finding him and retrieving his remains. However, the bottom line is that Torguson Park is a place for community. It is not a place for emergency operations. It’s easy to think of several other places that would be better as a staging area in times of search-andrescue operations, which would not impact residents and homes and our children. The fire-training center off I-90’s Exit 38, where they also train emergency response personnel, for instance, is a good candidate. However, that’s only just one option. It’s time for our leaders in North Bend, King County, and search-and-rescue to make sure this happens. Casondra Brewster North Bend

Fall City Days volunteers
A successful Fall City day The rain held off until 4:30 on June 16 for our 41st annual Fall City Street Fair. From start to finish, the event was a concerted effort of many hard working volunteers in our community. I know how grateful I am to them and how much work goes into the event. Cheri and Susan helped check in vendors and troubleshoot for me in the early morning hours. The fun run was expertly led by Sean Sundwall and Kirk Dunckel (results on www.runsnoqualmie.com). Our road/ detour crew did a great job with new recruits, thank you to Bud, Dave, Steve, Del, Kevin, Terry and Lee for pulling it off. Don Hastings and his deputies did a fine job keeping the crowds and cars in line throughout the day. Jennifer Vierling and Fall City Arts were able to again garner great performances from local artists for us. See LETTERS, 5

Most of the community members on the Snoqualmie Community Planning committee, 10 of 14, are hoping to slow down the development of Weyerhauser’s Snoqualmie Ridge. They voted to ask the county’s Boundary Review Board to take jurisdiction over the 2,200-acre proposed development, and felt that the anticipated growth in Snoqualmie could be managed in an annexation one-third the size. • Carnation business owners are feeling more and more desperate about the lack of a good sewage system in the city, and 28 of them signed a petition calling for a specific plan for city sewers within 90 days.

In Brief
A “Thank you” to Kim for setting up the chairs in the park in Vanessa’s absence. Jane, Laurie and company waited patiently for the winning ducks to cross the finish line, after selling tickets all day. The parade had many floats to ooh and aah over, congrats to Marci and Cedars Montessori for winning the Grand Marshal trophy. Thanks to Libby and Laurie E. for your teamwork and our awesome parade. “Thank you” to Don Norman and family for being our outstanding Grand Marshal and judges this year. Melody ran and staffed our merchandise, hats, shirts and mugs are still available at the Hauglies Insurance Agency—Fall City Days HQ. Thank you to Bill A. and Dan E. for maintaining our electrical and technical systems throughout the day. Enrique (El Caporal) and Lyle (Raging River Saloon) were kind enough to let the food vendors use their establishments for water and other amenities and fed our crew during the day. The Boy Scouts of Troop 425 went above and beyond to clean up after thousands of people and some also jumped in to help our road crew; they did a great job as always. Gordon Construction came through again with use of their dumpster and Rainier Recycling lets us keep our supply shed on their property for easy access. As you can see, we could not accomplish any of this or donate money back to the youth organizations in the Valley, without the help and support of our community. Judy Dix Fall City Days
Snoqualmie weighs new levy for safety, parks, streets The Snoqualmie City Council will decide next week whether to send a 24-cent operations levy, supporting police, fire, parks and streets, to city voters this fall. Details are still fluid, but the measure would likely add paid positions to the city’s police and fire departments, which have been in a hiring freeze for nine years, while helping preserve basic maintenance of streets, parks, and trails within the city to avoid more costly improvements in the future. City officials say the property tax increase is necessary to maintain basic service because the city’s costs have
risen faster than revenues, particularly property tax revenues, which are capped by initiative. “We started with belttightening, but it alone is not a long-term solution,” said Snoqualmie Mayor Matt Larson. “We face important choices about whether to maintain the same high quality of fire and police protection. We need to keep up with infrastructure improvements rather than waiting and paying more later. We need to maintain safe parks and recreation facilities, and preserve natural areas so they are here for us to enjoy for years to come.” An ordinance introducing the measure was introduced to the council on July 9. The council will vote on the ordinance at the July 23 council meeting. Pending council approval, the ballot title will be filed with King County to be included on the November general election ballot.

BANDIT FROM 1 In North Bend, the robber entered the bank at 5:53 p.m. wearing a black ski mask and black gloves, pointing the gun and shouting demands, North Bend Police Chief Mark Toner said. There were three bank employees and three customers inside the bank at the time. The suspect was in and out of the bank in just over a minute, taking an undisclosed amount of cash. No one was injured in the incident. The man is described as 5’10” to 6 feet tall, with a heavy build, dark hair and “very hairy” forearms. He wore a black and gray striped long-sleeved shirt with the sleeves pushed up, baggy jeans and dark boots. He left the bank in a dirty, redorange vehicle believed to be a Jeep. The license plate had a blue stripe across the top, and may have been from out of state. The vehicle also had a rear-mounted spare tire with a multi-colored cover. The King County Sheriff’s Office stated that the North Bend robber is considered armed and dangerous. “We have found that this style of robbery is particularly dangerous,” Toner said, adding that the July 6 incident was the city’s first take-over style robbery. “You can accidentally shoot somebody very easily when you’re walking around
like that… excited and yelling. He might never have intended to shoot anyone, but it could happen.” The man called the AK-47 Bandit shot a police officer in the leg Feb. 29, in Chino, Calif., as he was leaving the California Bank and Trust. According to reports, the suspect saw the patrolman responding to the robbery call, and started shooting into the vehicle. He fled the scene in a dark grey sedan, which was also the getaway vehicle for a March 12 Bank of the West robbery in Vacaville, and an attempt on the Tri Counties Bank in Sacramento March 9. That suspect is described as a white male, 5’10”, 180 to 220 pounds. In the March 12 incident, he is also seen wearing a blue vest with the word “Sheriff” on the back. Police believe he may have phoned in a bomb threat from a pay phone near the Chino bank, as a distraction for police. The FBI is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the AK-47 Bandit. No definite link has been established between the North Bend suspect and the California suspect, however. Anyone with information about the North Bend robbery is asked to call Detective Mike Mellis in the King County Sheriff’s Office, (206) 263-2086, or call 911.

Local influence perfects first-generation app that ends checkout lines By Carol Ladwig Staff Reporter
Entrepreneurs, take note: Pie has power. People will do a lot for pie, and when threatened with the absence of the pastry at Thanksgiving dinner, they’ll do even more. That’s why software developer Aaron Roberts found himself queued up in the chaos of a Costco store on Thanksgiving Eve two years ago, sent by his wife to buy the forgotten pumpkin pie. “This was the busiest I’d ever seen it,” he sighed. “First there was a line to get pumpkin pie, and then there was a line to check out after you had your pumpkin pie.” Roberts came home with the pie, and an idea for a new way to shop. “I was waiting in line to get the pumpkin pie, and pleading with my wife through texts ‘do I have another option here?’” he said. “So I had a lot of time on my hands, and was thinking, ‘gosh, do I really need to stand in line at all?’” Two years later last week, Roberts and his new company, QThru (www. qthru.com) announced the availability of his pie-inspired shopping app on Apple’s iTunes app store. The free app, named for the Snoqualmie Ridge IGA where it was tested, lets IGA shoppers scan, bag and pay for their groceries, all with their smartphones. To use it, shoppers just start the app, then scan the barcodes or, for produce, weigh the items on a computerized scale which produces a barcode for them to scan. Sale items are calculated correctly, since the app is tied in with the store’s point-of-sale program and pricing data. Items can go into a cart or, for shoppers who don’t want the entire
store to see their purchases, something more opaque. Only the cashier who checks your purchase receipt against your items after checkout will look inside. Phil Stafford, who has led marketing efforts for QThru, said this privacy was an unexpected benefit that QThru developers hadn’t even thought of initially. “With this solution, you’re inaisle as you’re scanning, and you could even bring in your own cloth bag to put things into,” he said. What developers had thought about were the challenges of selfcheckout, from both the consumer side, and the store’s perspective. “This is all done as you shop in-aisle, and it becomes a little less stressful,” said Stafford. Checkout for QThru shoppers means touching a button on their phones, then scanning a final barcode on a display at the front of the store to authorize payment (the app stores information for a credit card). Finally, a checker verifies items purchased against the printed receipt. “You don’t have that pressure of someone standing behind you in line, they’re waiting for you to scan your stuff,” Stafford said. Also, Roberts says, the app makes self-checkout an affordable option for many stores. “Most of the traditional selfcheckout lanes that you see… low, low, low-end, they cost $25,000, all the way up to the $50- or $60,000 range.” The app currently charges the store a percentage on each item purchased through it, but as they expand its feature set and begin to work with advertisers, they hope to make the app free for stores, too. The Ridge IGA didn’t have a self-checkout option before March, when testing began for the QThru app. The store is the first and only place the app can be used, for now,

Right, QThru CEO Roberts with Phil Stafford, who will do marketing for the company. but Roberts said, “The goal is to have it in all Tyler’s stores.” Tyler is Tyler Myers, owner of the Ridge IGA and a handful of other grocery stores, plus several hardware stores. He became part of the QThru project through his relationship with Stafford, a Ridge resident and businessman. QThru wanted to try their app first in a smaller business, preferably a grocery store. “Grocery is the most difficult retail segment out there, because of the weights and measures, alcohol, you have all these things that come into play when you’re in a retail environment,” explained Stafford. He suggested the Ridge IGA because he knew Myers, knew many shoppers, and thought the arrangement would be mutually beneficial. “If we’re going to build this out and test it, this is the best environment,” he’d said. “We can solve all the problems here, so when we go to one of Tyler’s hardware stores, that will be a piece of cake,” Myers took an active role in the process, Stafford said, listing all of his concerns, many of which cen-

tered on theft, and the stores recent offerings of hard liquor — the app requires an additional level of verification if any alcohol is in the purchase. They “hand-picked” beta testers who were active troubleshooters to help with development. “We were very fortunate to have this scenario in a real-life store, reallife pricing, and also the transaction part, to be able to really fine-tune this,” Stafford said. “Because of that, we’ve been able to progress tremendously with what we’re building out.” Future versions of the app will be available on other phone operating systems, but for now, you’ll need an iPhone to use QThru’s “The Ridge IGA Supermarket” app. Roberts explained his company’s reasoning: “Just like we chose grocery as our first retailer, we chose Apple as our first platform because they’re both hard. You solve your hard problems first, and all the others, you almost get for free.” You can find the app here: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ the-ridge-iga-supermarket/ id526288243?mt=8#, and in case you’re wondering, yes, the app does pie.

CROHN’S FROM 1 Today, with her symptoms well under control and a habitually sunny attitude that must come from working with fourth and third graders for the last 20 years, Nohavec is nowhere near giving up. She runs, cycles and swims a few days each week, and has just renewed the commitment she made in May, to compete in her first ever triathlon this September. This, from the woman who laughs long and loud because “I run slower than I walk!” and has managed life with an autoimmune disease for decades. She’ll be part of about 20 Seattle-area athletes running the Team Challenge sprint triathlon, Sept. 9 in San Diego, as a fundraiser for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America (www.ccfa.org). “I wanted to earn money for Crohn’s and Colitis and this is the only one there is… that’s not a marathon,” she explained. She no longer has the “potty problems,” or inflammatory bowel condition, that would keep most Crohn’s patients from attempting a 26.2 mile run, but Nohavec decided to start small. “The distances are short, really,” she said, but that’s not the point. She wants to see if she can do it all, the 500-meter swim, 10-mile bike ride and

Twenty-five-year Snoqualmie resident and teacher at Snoqualmie Elementary School, Dana Nohavec competes in the Team Challenge sprint triathlon, Sept. 9 in San Diego, as a fundraiser for the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of America. 3-mile run — or walk, she says — and have fun doing it. What got her to this point, from her start as a college student who quit school when her Crohn’s symptoms became debilitating, was largely the work of the CCFA, an organization she’s been involved with for decades. “They offer a wide range of support groups,” she said, and a mentorship program
in which she has guided several newly diagnosed Crohn’s patients. Most importantly, though, they’ve expanded the treatment options for Crohn’s. “I am grateful to the foundation for using their funds so wisely!” she says. Nohavec developed Crohn’s at 19, either from a parasite in contaminated water on a hiking trip, or from her body’s reaction to the anti-parasitic drugs she took to treat it. Her symptoms then were anemia and the typical potty problems associated with the disease, and treatment was minimal. “There were virtually two or three medications, and that’s all there was,” Nohavec said. Mainly, she took prednisone, which had its own “horrific” side effects, and never completely controlled her condition. She had flare-ups three or four times a year. “Then I had my child, and it completely changed to elbows, knees, joints, everything along my back,” she continued. “I couldn’t hold my baby.” Nohavec’s condition was transformed, something that happens to about a third of Crohn’s patients after pregnancy. It looked and felt different, but was still a result of her body’s own defenses attacking her cells. “Crohn’s has so many different faces,” she said. “Mine acts like rheumatoid arthritis...and it changes depending on your state of growth.”
Snoqualmie Valley Record • July 18, 2012 • 7
That change of face opened up a new treatment option for her, though, a drug called Remicade, used to treat RA. She started receiving infusions of Remicade five years ago, one infusion every six weeks or so, and has taken her life back. First it was just walking before or after school, and occasionally getting back on her bicycle, she said. She had more energy, and she was willing to try. “Then one morning, I just woke up and had a hankering, to see if I could run!” she said. A friend had started a new running program that inspired her. “So I ran around my block and, honestly, I wasn’t sure I could make it, but I did, though I didn’t venture a second time.” Not that day, anyway. “I was really proud of myself,” she said, and soon she was “putting one foot in front of the other,” and discovering
that she might be an athlete, after all. “I thought maybe it was my mind that was weak, that my mind wouldn’t allow me to break past it, but I just really started liking it. I found I could go farther and farther!”
Events planned
She still has some obstacles to overcome, and she will always struggle with Crohn’s, since there is no cure, yet, but Nohavec has managed to see the positive side in much of her life’s challenges. Quitting the University of Washington’s occupational therapy program as a 19 yearold, for example, is what led to her becoming a teacher — “I landed on a special education course that just threw me back on track!” she said. And her periodic infusions “are not bad,” she says, adding “I’m just thrilled I don’t have to go to Portland for them!” The triathlon itself will be a challenge, as will raising the
$3,300 she’ll need by Aug. 20, but she feels good about her chances. There are some things she would change, though. Pointing to the Team Challenge logo on a poster promoting her upcoming triathlon, she says “Look how small the ‘Crohn’s and Colitis’ is! I would beg to redesign that, because people don’t know what it’s for!” Nohavec is planning a series of events to raise the $3,300 she’ll need just to enter the triathlon. They include: A booth at the North Bend Block Party, where she raffled off a Wii game system; A dinner and silent auction July 25 at Judkins Street Cafe in Seattle; A wine and hors d’ouevres party at Arts East in Issaquah, tentatively set for Aug. 2; To donate, supporters can also visit her website: www. active.com/donate/nwseattletri/triDNohave1.

Gentle chair yoga offered Tuesdays Instructor Kelley Rush offers a gentle yoga class, with poses that can easily be adapted to be done while sitting in a chair, Tuesdays at Sno-Valley Senior Center, 4610 Stephens Ave., Carnation.

Hospital districts were first authorized by the Washington State legislature in 1945. Hospital districts are authorized not only to operate hospitals, but also to deliver any service to help people stay healthy—physically, socially, and mentally. There are 56 hospital districts in Washington State, Rodger McCollum, CEO operating 43 hospitals, representing about half of the acute care hospitals in the state. Hospital districts play a vital role in allowing many rural communities to keep healthcare in their own communities. Both public hospital districts and not-for-profit hospitals focus on community service, facility upgrading and subsidized care for persons unable to pay the full costs of service. The vast majority of public hospital districts are located in areas considered to be “rural” in character, emphasizing the importance of public hospital districts in meeting the challenges facing rural healthcare. Public hospital district #1 is Valley Medical Center in Renton. Public hospital district #2 is Evergreen Hospital Medical Center in Kirkland, and public hospital district #4 is Snoqualmie Valley Hospital in Snoqualmie. This district was formed by voters in 1972. Our district is roughly the same size as, and has the same boundaries as, Snoqualmie Valley School District #410. Overlake Hospital Medical Center was originally intended to be public hospital district #3, but before their official opening in 1960, a decision was made to make it a private hospital.

Chevy Y uth Baseball Sponsored by
North Bend Chevrolet
Basics of the game Little League helps young players learn the game Roy Baunsgard sees the looks of pride in the young players faces when they sport their first real baseball jerseys. “There’s an element of cool,” says this baseball dad, whose two boys, ages 7 and 10, play youth ball in the Valley. “They wear them around town, at school.” Baunsgard, fundraising director for the Snoqualmie Valley Little League, said the youth league made it a point this year to provide new jerseys for the “farm league,” SVLL’s youngest players, ages 4 to 7. With help from Valley sponsors that included a $500 donation from Chaplins North Bend Chevrolet, they traded in their three-quarterssleeve shirts for the real deal. Those shirts are a big deal. “We wanted to make the kids feel

The North Bend dealership partners with two local Little Leagues each year. like they really belong to something,” Baunsgard said. “Kids buy into your program. They get something that they get to wear and be proud of. It builds a foundation for the future.” The $500 donation was part of Chaplins’ effort to support local athletics through Chevy Youth Baseball.
“It doesn’t happen without sponsors,” Baunsgard said. The jersey campaign was just one facet of the youth league that promotes the traditions, excitement and lessons of baseball for Valley youth. Youth baseball gives children “an opportunity to be in a team
environment, to play with other kids,” Baunsgard said. In Little League, kids learn work ethic, how to be part of a group. There can be tears and smiles. “Sometimes you’re going to win, sometimes you lose,” he said. “You’ve got to learn how to deal with both.”

Partnering for success Chevy Youth Baseball program helps local leagues meet goals
C
haplin’s North Bend Chevrolet has partnered with Falls Little League and Snoqualmie Valley Little League for the past three summers, providing new equipment, instructional clinics, a monetary donation and an opportunity to raise money through a Chevrolet vehicle sweepstakes. “Baseball is the anchor to every community,” said Leesa McKay, Chaplins’ in-house marketing administrator and outside saleswoman. “No matter how small a town is, it has Little League. We see all those kids out there playing, but I don’t think we all realize actually what it takes to get those kids to play — I know I didn’t.” “There is nothing more American than Chevrolet and baseball and Chaplin’s North Bend Chevrolet wants to combine America’s favorite brand and favorite pastime together for our families in North Bend to enjoy,” added McKay. The donation program is Chevrolet’s way of honoring America’s everyday heroes. In leagues across the country, the program has raised more than $13 million and affected nearly three million youth, assisting in
more than 2,000 parks improvements. Since the program began seven years ago, more than 1,600 Chevrolet dealers have gotten involved. Both Valley leagues receive $500 checks from Chaplin’s through the program, and teams also receive equipment bags, baseball buckets, whiffle balls, hitting net, batting tees and Chevrolet Youth Baseball T-shirts. The sponsorship also includes youth clinics featuring former major and minor league players and coaches. The Falls league chose to raise additional funds through a Chevrolet Youth Baseball ticket fundraiser. Sponsored leagues get 2,000 fund-raiser entry tickets to distribute for a suggested donation, and each league will keep 100 percent of the proceeds it raises. In addition to its commitment to youth baseball, Chevrolet also is the Official Vehicle of Major League Baseball™. “Chevrolet vehicles are designed and built for families,” said McKay.

Chaplin’s North Bend Chevrolet hopes to help Snoqualmie Valley Youth Soccer Association score. In the spirit of teamwork taught by youth sports, Chaplin’s is teaming up with Snoqualmie Valley Youth Soccer Association to provide their players and coaches a fundraising opportunity and equipment this fall. The Chevy Youth Soccer program is similar to the youth baseball program, but helps area leagues. “We are proud to be able to help the kids in our community by donating equipment and giving them the opportunity to raise much-needed funds for their league. We are excited to be part of the effort this year, and anticipate a fun-filled season with Snoqualmie Valley Youth Soccer Association” said Leesa McKay of Chaplin’s Chevrolet.

...obituaries Alice L. Chalfa
Alice L. Chalfa, of North Bend (formerly of Issaquah), passed away at home on July 8, 2012. She was 84 years of age. Alice was born on December 18, 1927 in Seattle, the daughter of Ross and Bertha (Stumpf) Hahne. She was raised in Seattle and graduated from West Seattle High School in 1946. She married Jack Chalfa on April 28, 1962 in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. They resided in Issaquah from 1963 to 1987 then retired to North Bend. Professionally, Alice worked for the US Navy, HQ 14th Naval District, Pearl Harbor, HI and HQ 13th Naval District in Seattle and for 33 years. She retired as the Passenger Manager for the Western United States transporting people and freight alike. Her passion for travel continued well into her retirement. She and Jack cruised through the South Pacific Islands, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the Mediterranean, Middle East, Carribean and the Americas. Her passion for travel was only surpassed by her love for Jack. He, in turn, affectionately recalls being smitten by “the beauty in the yellow sweater” and the rest is history. Whether canning produce from their abundant garden, traveling the world, or working on projects at their house on the Snoqualmie River, they were rarely apart. Alice and Jack celebrated their Golden Wedding Anniversary earlier this year. Alice is survived by her loving husband, Jack Chalfa, of North Bend; sister-in-law Dulcie Chalfa; several cousins, nieces and nephews. She was a second mother to many in the family and was fond of telling amusing stories of those early years that would have otherwise been forgotten. She never met a stranger and her quiet thoughtful ways gained her many lasting friendships over the years. Alice will be dearly missed. Funeral services will be held 11am Friday, July 13, 2012 at Flintofts Issaquah Funeral Home, 540 E Sunset Way, Issaquah. Committal will follow at Lower Hillside Cemetery, Issaquah. Remembrances may be made to the American Cancer Society or the Salvation Army. Friends are invited to share memories and sign the family’s on-line guest book at www.flintofts.com. Arrangements are by Flintofts Funeral Home. 650467

If you’re happy with your dentures, don’t read this!
Snoqualmie Valley Record • July 18, 2012 • 19
The ClearChoice team of specialists provides 21st century solutions to people struggling with dentures or bad teeth.
WHY SUFFER WITH DENTURES? For centuries, removable false teeth, or dentures, have been used to replace missing teeth. But denture-wearers report that many undesirable side effects come along with this less-than-ideal solution: Dentures are uncomfortable to wear and often slip or click; they can cause bad breath, and require ongoing and inconvenient maintenance; they often result in a weak bite, a fakelooking smile and an overly active gagging reflex. Care and comfort aside, those with dentures also are prevented from eating many of the foods and participating in many of the activities they enjoy. With today’s science, there’s simply no reason for anyone to struggle with dentures. In fact, many of the problems denture wearers struggle with can be solved in just one day* with the help of your ClearChoice team of dental implant professionals.
Denture wearers tend to struggle with: • Shame or embarrassment when smiling • Feeling limited in social situations • Maintaining a fully active lifestyle • Appearing older due to bone loss • Health issues related to their teeth
THE SOLUTION IS DENTAL IMPLANTS. Dental implants provide far better results than do dentures, because implants can prevent potential bone loss. Because they’re anchored into the jawbone, the fusion of the implant and bone provides stability, just as the natural teeth did. Implants perform and are cared for just like natural teeth! If you’re missing some or all of your teeth, dental implants can stimulate the bone, protect against atrophy and help preserve your natural facial features.
Unlike dentures, dental implants are fixed in place, perform like your natural teeth, and can last a lifetime! CHOOSE A BETTER LIFE TODAY. Most people who choose dental implants report the decision to be life changing. Not only do dental implants look great and boost your confidence, but they can also restore you to the active lifestyle you’ve been missing. Swim, ski, laugh and sing. Give business presentations. Eat what you like. Do it all without worrying about how your smile looks, or that your teeth will slip or fall out!
I had friends who had dentures, so knowing what they had to deal with, I just refused to go down that road. ClearChoice was absolutely the best option for me! — James, ClearChoice patient
WHY TRUST CLEARCHOICE? In addition to being the No. 1 provider of dental implants, ClearChoice has industryleading customer satisfaction and success rates. In fact, an independent study† of thousands of patients showed that those who chose ClearChoice would overwhelmingly recommend ClearChoice to others.
