Walkers came to Redmond’s Marymoor Park from as far away as Boscobel, Wis., and as close as Woodinville to help fight breast cancer during last weekend’s Susan G. Komen Seattle 3-Day event. Pam and Mark Cashman from Wisconsin completed the first 20 miles of their 60-mile journey last Friday with arms raised as they entered the elaborate two-night camp site at Marymoor, which featured 500 pink tents for guests and a Main Street with a large dining tent, hot showers, a post office, foot massages and more. “I’m a survivor. We try to do one (3-Day) every year, so we picked Seattle this year,” Pam said. “It’s exhilarating, and that’s what keeps you going.” Mark said there were some challenging hills to tackle, but they conquered the scenic course through Seattle, Bellevue and Redmond. “We’ve been up since about 3 o’clock this morning getting ready and then we took off walking, and we’ve been walking ever since,” he added. “The people support is really good — they cheer you all along.” Christi Dudzik of Woodinville flashed a No. 1 sign to a friend after she crossed the first-day finish line and received cheers from volunteers

She walked in honor of one of her best friends who died of breast cancer at age 36. “I had to help tell her 4-year-old and 6-year-old that their mother wasn’t coming back, so that had a huge impact on me,” said Dudzik, walking in her eighth 3-Day. “I believe that everybody needs to stand for something, and this is what I stand for, this is my cause. It seems that every year when I sign up to do the 3-Day walk, I know of another (friend’s) new diagnosis of breast cancer. And it just makes me mad. This is my way of being able to do something — to help end this disease that takes people way too young.” In all, 1,300 women and men participated in the event and helped raise more than

Participants walked through Washington communities and concluded their trek with a closing ceremony at Memorial Stadium in Seattle. Komen 3-Day national spokeswoman Dr. Sheri Phillips noted that Seattle numbers are down from 2,000 participants last year, but the walkers are as strong as ever. [ more komen page 22 ]
While it may be common knowledge now, there once was a time when people didn’t realize there was a link between smoking and lung cancer; they didn’t know being overweight could increase their chances of getting cancer or that physical activity, diet, medications and vitamins are all factors when it comes to cancer risk. All of these discoveries were made thanks to cancer-prevention studies conducted by the American Cancer Society (ACS). “Who knows how long it would’ve taken to diagnose (these) correlations (without these studies)?” said Kimberly Dinsdale, Western Washington Region communications manager for ACS. The health organization has begun recruiting people nationwide to participate in its third research study, Cancer Prevention Study-3 (CPS-3). In the Puget Sound area, recruitment began last Saturday at 17 locations including EvergreenHealth in Redmond. Dinsdale said they are looking to recruit 10,000 participants locally to contribute to the national goal of 300,000 participants. Participants must be between the ages of 30 and 65, have never been diagnosed with cancer and willing to commit 20-30 years to the study. Dinsdale said when they first sign up, participants will need to sign a consent form, complete [ more study page 21 ]

A Regional Approach Produces Efficiencies, Competitive Edge Message from the Chair | John Marchione, Mayor, City of Redmond I’m pleased to announce that Cascade has progressed from its original status as a watershed management partnership, to a municipal corporation. This important step provides Cascade with flexibility to address future challenges as we continue to strive to provide water resources to the region for the future. the change in status was made possible through the recently adopted joint municipal utilities services authority act (JmUsa) that allows more efficient use of public dollars when municipalities and special districts combine to provide essential public services. Legislators saw the benefit and the act gained broad support. JmUsa was adopted in 2011. in July, Cascade became the first municipal corporation in the state to be formed under JmUsa. Our customers, residents and ratepayers will all benefit as a result. A Competitive Edge for Puget Sound | according to a pronouncement made earlier this summer by Cascade and all the major water providers in King, pierce and snohomish counties, the puget sound
region will have enough water for the next 50 years. Better forecasting, wise infrastructure investment by the utilities, and smart use of water by consumers and the utilities means water will be available. this is not only important for us as we turn on the tap at home but it offers the region a tremendous economic advantage as we look out to the future. Unlike in other parts of the country, we can tell business that the region will have enough water to support population and economic growth. We are well positioned here in this region when it comes to the essential necessity of water.
this summer sharing with residents how our members have combined to form Cascade to ensure they have high quality great tasting water today and tomorrow. From local fairs to farmers’ markets and other events, thousands of Cascade area residents stopped by to visit our booths, getting information about Cascade and our water saving ideas. enjoy these last days of summer and the coming of fall—and use our wonderful water wisely!

Helping your child deal with bullying Patti SkeltonMcGougan
Most of us have been bullied at some point, whether we endured teasing, namecalling, or even physical aggression. Although the initial sting may go away, the memories of the experience haunt some people for the rest of their lives. You may forever be self-conscious about a crooked nose, your weight or the way you dress — all because a bully made fun of you in middle school. Research estimates that on any given day, 160,000 children miss school because they’re afraid of being bullied. Encountering a bully can ruin a child’s school experience. Now with cyberbullying, your child can be attacked in the safety of your own home. Bullying is more than a childhood rite of passage, it can lower self-esteem, increase rates of depression and suicide and negatively impact a child’s academic performance. Bullying occurs at almost any age, but it’s most prevalent in middle school. As a parent, it’s important to recognize the warning signs of a child being bullied. These may include emotional signals such as withdrawal, a drop in grades or loss of friends; and visible effects such as torn clothing, bruises or other signs of fighting. Another indication of bullying is when your child becomes upset about going to school, sports practice, daycare or wherever the bullying is occurring. Danny Hanson, who oversees the PEACE Anti-bullying Program at Youth Eastside Services, recommends that parents encour-

age children to start with simple steps after telling school personnel about the problem. First, avoid a bully by playing in a different area. Because there is safety in numbers, he also suggests hanging out with a buddy. Finally, Hanson reminds parents to encourage kids who witness bullying to speak up and report it to teachers or an adult, even if it wasn’t directed at them. It’s important to encourage your child to tell you when another child is being hurtful, either physically or emotionally. Let your child know that you are there to help. Dismissive statements like “It’s no big deal,” can shut down further communication, since bullying is a very big deal to a child. Don’t assume your child knows how to talk to a teacher or counselor if the incidents involve a classmate. Rehearse how to ask an adult for help —ideally before any bullying has occurred. Offer some ways to help your son or daughter stand up for to a bully without being confrontational, which
can aggravate the situation. For example, discuss a made-up scenario or one from your childhood, and talk through ways that your child could respond. Check in regularly to ascertain if your child continues to be bullied. You may need to get involved and talk to school personnel. Unless you have an existing relationship with a family, it’s best to avoid confronting a child bully or the parents of a bully. This can backfire and result in more aggressive behavior. If your child is having a difficult time overcoming the harm inflicted by a bully, it may be a good idea to seek counseling to avoid long-term issues.

Senior: ‘Never would I vote for McKenna’ (In response to last issue’s pro-Rob McKenna letter): Let us not forget that Rob McKenna joined the forces that tried to kill the Affordable Care Act. As a senior citizen, I found that action as despicable. If chief justice John Roberts were running for governor, I would vote for him, but never would I vote for McKenna.

From the Web: Speaking out on Rosa Parks overcrowding story I am the mother of a current secondgrader at Rosa Parks, and next year I will have a kindergartner. The district needs to implement a solution to significantly reduce enrollment across ALL grades at Rosa Parks by next year. If I didn’t already have a child at the school, I would definitely be asking for a variance to Wilder for my kindergartner, however that is not a great solution for people that have siblings in
the school already. I am a frequent volunteer at the school, and if my kids were split between schools, I wouldn’t be able to offer as much to the schools. The overcrowding also causes a huge problem for our before- and after-school programs. Many open spaces we used to have in the school have been converted to classrooms, and can no longer be used for programs. With almost 800 kids, the programs fill up instantly and many families do not get spots in the programs that they are interested in.
Shayna Hennings Begun, Redmond
Overcrowding at Rosa Parks is also impacting our ability to continue school-wide events like science fair at the same level. In years past, we have always displayed science fair projects in our commons area (lunch room/gym) during the school day so that all students/classes can view the projects. This year, we were told that use of commons area during the day for science is no longer feasible because of the multiple demands for use on that space (lunch & P.E. and drama classes). That means science fair will be an evening-only
event. This also severely limits the time we have to evaluate the projects and provide meaningful feedback prior to the evening viewing of science fair projects (literally limiting the time to a couple of hours after school to review about 200 projects or more). It’s frustrating for parent volunteers to feel so rushed to judge and set up projects, and to limit the viewing time of projects only to the evening. In the past, science fair was a terrific chance for students to showcase their science work to their peers and teachers, but because of overcrowding, that opportunity is now more limited.
Beth Torlone Sigall, Redmond
To fix overcrowding, you have to build more schools, which means approving more construction bonds. This is made more difficult in our current anti-tax political environment. We’ve got to recognize that we get what we pay for...if we need more services from our government, we have to raise taxes to do the job. Remember this in 2014 when we vote to fund school construction.

Your specific condition will be evaluated by our doctors, and a treatment plan will be customized for your individual needs and lifestyle.

How Does This Treatment Work? Spinal Decompression has been one of the most important medical advancements in the non-surgical, non-invasive treatment of back pain in the past 10 years. This FDA cleared technology is safe, painless and is utilized by many different types of doctors across the United States. During decompression, there is negative pressure created within the spinal discs. This allows herniated discs to be gently repositioned or moved back into place. This correction can lessen the pain brought about by the pressure of the protruding discs on the spinal nerves. The vacuum effect also increases the flow of nutrients, oxygen and fluids into the injured disc, thus stimulating a natural healing effect. This FDA cleared technology has helped thousands of back and neck pain sufferers avoid surgery and has given them the freedom to live without pain.

SEALING FANS
Parents should remember that young children have enough difficulty summoning the manual dexterity needed to properly clean their teeth. Of particular concern are the nooks and crannies in the biting surfaces of the back teeth where food and plaque may be difficult to dislodge. To help in the effort to prevent decay from gaining a toehold in these hard-to-reach areas, the dentist may prescribe “dental sealants.” As their name implies, these plastic coatings cover tooth surfaces with a hard material that is impervious to decay. The procedure is painless and simple, requiring only that the targeted area be prepared with acid solution, coated with a thin layer of plastic, and dried with a special curing light. Dental sealants, which are also recommended for adults in some cases, have been in use since the 1980s. Brushing twice a day and flossing daily helps prevent tooth decay and gum disease that can lead to tooth loss. At NW FAMILY and SPORTS DENTISTRY, preventive dentistry is our goal for every patient. It involves daily care, good nutrition, and periodic check-ups and cleanings that maintain good dental health already achieved. Oral health is a long-term commitment we share with each patient. Please call 425.641.4111 to schedule an appointment. We’re located in the Forest Office Park, Building F, at 14655 Bel-Red Road, Suite 101, near the Microsoft Main Campus in Bellevue.

This year’s Shoot for the Stars golf tournament raised $15,000 for the Behind the Badge Foundation. The event was held Aug. 27 at the Bear Creek Country Club in Woodinville and was organized by Zetron, a mission-critical communications systems provider in Redmond. This was the second annual Shoot for the Stars event and the money raised will go to an organization that serves Washington’s injured and fallen law-enforcement officers and their families. From these two events, Zetron has raised $25,000 for Behind the Badge in the last two years. The money raised by the event included participant donations, corporate sponsorships, donations from Zetron employees and matching funds provided by Zetron and Zetron president and CEO Ellen O’Hara. Local companies and Zetron employees also donated prizes for raffles held at the event. Participants in the
tournament included law enforcement and public safety personnel from agencies throughout Washington including King, Pierce, Snohomish, Thurston, Whatcom, and Kitsap counties. Representatives from Zetron, other public safety equipment vendors and local businesses also took part. Volunteers from Behind the Badge, Kirkland Police Explorers and Silver Lake Cheer squad assisted with the event. “We are very pleased that, for the second year in a row, Zetron’s Shoot for the Stars tournament has been such a great success,” said O’Hara. “The event is an important community effort and demonstration of our support for Behind the Badge and the officers and families the foundation serves.” To view pictures of the event, visit www. facebook.com/zetroninc.

on what’s best for students to succeed. Present at the meeting were members of the Lake Washington Schools Foundation and Cascadia Community College President Eric Murray, whose Bothell students will start classes on Monday. Murray was particularly interested in Hunter’s views on the recent McCleary Decision, in which the State Supreme Court ruled in favor of school districts in a lawsuit against the state over inadequate funding for education. Hunter noted that 43.8 percent of the state’s 20112013 operating budget is spent on public schools with 8.7 percent going to higher education. He feels there’s still a long way to go in helping students through the school system. “We need to improve the pipeline for students heading into college so they are prepared,” he said, adding that more collegeprep classes should be offered in high school. Hunter noted that proper funding in this area should help students

While Tom is no longer owner, he is in semi-retirement and still involved at Cascade, helping around the shop a couple of days a week and filling in for Caleb if his son is out sick or on vacation. “I’m not just sitting around,� Tom said, adding his continued involvement in the shop, as well as other activities has made his transition into semi-retirement easier. Caleb said he has enjoyed working with his father all these years, but admits it can be challenging at times, as is the case when working with family. But that’s OK. “We’ve been doing it for 12 years and we haven’t killed each other,� Caleb said. Cascade will be moved in to the new building by this weekend and open for business at the beginning of next week. They will have their grand opening the week of Oct. 1. Caleb said they will hold an open house from 4-6 p.m. on Oct. 3, which will feature free snacks and beverages. People will also have the chance to check out the new building.

his life in the business. Caleb said he followed in his father’s footsteps with his love of cars, which may sometimes be a problem, as at age 29, he has owned about 25 cars. Some of these cars, Caleb would have for only a few months and he admitted that some people think he’s nuts. Something else Caleb has learned from Tom, who ran an auto parts store in Redmond before he bought Cascade, has been the importance of customer service. Caleb said they are not a “numbers shop,� looking to meet a specific quota. This means if a customer needs work done on their car, Caleb won’t push them to have it done immediately. Instead, he said he will give them a timeline for when it needs to be done so the customer can plan and save money for the service. “They can budget it,� he said. Caleb said they work on vehicles of all makes and models and offer a wide variety of services ranging from transmission and timing-belt work to tuneups and oil changes. “You have a problem with

FOOD DRIVE SET FOR THIS WEEKEND
On Saturday and Sunday, members of the Redmond City Council will roll up their sleeves and host a food drive as part of the Month of Concern for the Hungry at the QFC at 8867 161st Ave. N.E. in the Bella Bottega shopping center. The food drive will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day. Council members will be asking shoppers to donate the most-needed canned goods, such as vegetables, soup and beans. These donations will help local food banks meet the increasing demand for food assistance at a time when many organizations are experiencing significant funding cuts. All food collected will be delivered to Hopelink. City of Redmond Mayor John Marchione encourages all residents to stop by and donate food or
consider hosting a food drive during the month. “A food drive is a great employeremployee effort, as well as a great school or neighborhood effort to show you care,” he said. This Month of Caring Food Drive is part of a community-wide effort with other participating cities: Bellevue, Kirkland, Issaquah, Mercer Island and Sammamish.

Eastside women painters in their 90s are young at art Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com
While many people tend to slow down as they get older, three Eastside women are proving that old age doesn’t mean you have to stop. Lucille Berkowitz, Doris McFarland and Jessie Irene Fernandes, who are 91, 90 and 91, respectively, are three local artists whose paintings are currently being shown at the Redmond Senior Center (RSC), located at 8703 160th Ave. N.E. Fernandes, who lives in Bellevue, said by showing their work in the senior center, they hope to show other seniors how much they can still enjoy life and do activities they enjoy even as they get older. “It gives them hope,” she said. Ken Wong, teen and 50+ programs administrator for the City of Redmond, said the artwork they showcase at the senior center is usually by artists who are 50 or older, but this is the first time they have featured artists who are 90 and older. Each woman has about half a dozen pieces on display at the senior center. Fernandes’ pieces are all watercolors; Berkowitz’s pieces are all acrylics and McFarland’s pieces are a combination of the two mediums. All three women said they have been painting since they were young and have worked with a variety of materials. “I was born with a paintbrush in my mouth, no silver spoon, just a paintbrush,” said McFarland, who lives in Trilogy on Redmond Ridge. Berkowitz, who said she took her first painting lesson at 13, still attends classes and paints on a daily basis. The RSC will feature Berkowitz’s, McFarland’s and Fernandes’ paintings through Jan. 7, 2013.

Courtesy photos • How do you feel like your experiences have changed you as people? Hannah: I guess as Americans we tend to have this perception of disabled orphans in foreign countries as people who need our help and kind of our pity, our charity. When we got there, they were a lot like normal kids, they had the same kind of goals and dreams and it was great to work with them and see what their lives were really like. We thought that the strength of these kids was really inspiring. Kelly: Also, now when I’m talking to someone, especially my family, I am consciously thinking about the fact that I have these family and friends and that I am building a relationship with them. I’m just aware that I have

people don’t push themselves when doing core work. I’ve seen plenty of people stop their set right when they start to feel the “burn.” Others may only use their body weight, never thinking that weights might actually challenge them even more. Remember, the harder you work your abdominals, the less you’ll have to do them — and you’ll get better results.

I’ve been having a tough time with my energy levels for my 6 a.m. workouts. I was thinking coffee might help with this, but it seems like it’s always getting mixed reviews. Any cause for concern before a workout?
First things first. If you’re experiencing low energy levels, and you’re not necessarily focused on fat loss, try having a small breakfast, or even a bar or a shake, before you go workout. This will definitely provide the much-needed energy you’re looking for. However, if you’re trying to drop body fat and you’d like to avoid calories that early in the morning, ng Session! coffee is an excellent alternative. The caffeine in coffee is considered a central nervous system stimulant and will pro-

serious core work, focusing on the abdominals, obliques and low back area. In doing this, most people make one of two mistakes. The first mistake is working these muscles too many days of the week. Some think you need to do abs almost every day, but you wouldn’t do this for chest, back and legs, so why would you do it for your abdominals? The other common problem is that

This is the prevailing theory, but unfortunately, this is not the case. Many people think that running on a slightly softer surface will help with knee pain, and that seems to make sense. But it’s the force of your overall body mass on your joints that is causing the problem, so running on a treadmill versus pavement really doesn’t matter. Your best bet would be to change up your modes of exercise and incorporate a little more biking, elliptical or rowing into your training. This will give your knees some much-needed rest, and then hopefully you can continue to run with little to no pain. Remember, if the pain gets too severe, you may want to take some time off and/or go see a sports physician to see if the pain is stemming from a more serious injury.
these effects are relatively mild, especially for healthy folks. In fact, much of the research these days is focused on the potential health benefits of coffee, rather than any health risks.

In the right amounts, caffeine has been shown to reduce the perception of effort during a workout, which means your workout will seem easier than it actually is. Not bad for a little cup o’ joe, huh? Keep in mind, coffee does increase heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure, and it can make you a bit jittery if you’re a newbie. Luckily,

Tack on another victory for The Overlake School. At halftime of the girls home soccer match versus rival University Prep on Sept. 28, representatives from Coach and Athletic Director magazine will present the Redmond school an Interscholastic Sports Program of Excellence 2012 award. Coach and Athletic Director editor Michael Austin said Overlake caught his and the judges’ attention for its students’ 82-percent athletic participation, overall 3.63 grade-point average (GPA) for varsity players, community service, parental involvement and coaches’ professionalism.
“They foster a positive athletic environment and the students get more out of school that way,” Austin said. “It’s recognition for what our kids do as student-athletes,” said Overlake athletic director John Wiley. “We’re very excited about being acknowledged for more than wins and losses. It’s what can you do beyond the field?” The magazine’s inaugural awards went to two schools in the midwest, one in southern California and Overlake, which takes home the prize in the category of private schools with an enrollment of less than 500. A high degree of teamwork, integrity and ethics while displaying good sportsmanship are other qualities present at Overlake and factored into the judging. Community service activities abound at

Quarterback Zach Wheat scored on an 8-yard run in the fourth quarter to lift Redmond to a 20-15 win over visiting Ballard last night in 4A Kingco football action. It was the Mustangs’ first win of the season. In the non-conference matchup, Redmond (1-2 overall) overcame a 15-13 deficit after three quarters to win. Ballard took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter, but Redmond knocked back with a Nick Kopak 45-yard field goal and a Wheat 14-yard run to take a 10-7 lead after Kopak’s extra point in the second.

Redmond scouts harvest potatoes to benefit local food banks
HELPING OUT COMMUNITY
A HARD DAY’S WORK
Sleeman’s son, Ian, participated in the great potato harvest and said the potatoes had already been pulled out of the ground and they just had to pick them up and put them in buckets. While this was the case, he said the work was still a lot harder than expected, especially after three hours. “It is a lot of work,” the 10-year-old said. He added that the work they did is really important because not only are they helping the farmers with the harvest, they are also bringing fresh vegetables to people who wouldn’t usually get them. Although Sleeman is in charge of the Cub Scouts,

These harvests have been on Monday, but they will now be Sunday afternoons from 4-5:30 p.m. through the end of October. For more information, call (425) 885-5822.

The harvesting took place at a farm at 20121 W. Snoqualmie River Rd. N.E. in Duvall and was part of Clean Greens Farm and Market, a nonprofit with the mission to bring fresh vegetables to inner-city and lowincome families who may not have access to the produce otherwise. Jim Eichner, the rector at Holy Cross, is leading the church’s involvement in the program and said the potatoes they harvested have been delivered to a Northwest Harvest hub in Renton, which will distribute the potatoes to various food banks in the area.

He said in addition to an opportunity to help the community, the harvesting event also gave the cubs a chance to meet and work with their older scout counterparts. “I saw them doing a lot of hard work,” he said about all of the scouts. Like Ian, Jackson and Robert Leavitt could attest to this. The two brothers also helped with the harvest and admitted that it was fun initially, but they became wiped out fairly quickly. “It was really hard, but it was good for the community,” said 10-year-old Jackson. He added that their experience made him think more about the food that ends up on his dinner table and the people who worked to get it there. Younger brother, Robert, 8, said one of the things he learned from the harvest was that there are all different kinds of potatoes. “I just thought they were all the same,” he said.

Last weekend, members of Redmond’s Cub Scout Pack 591 and Boy Scout Troop 591 received a firsthand lesson in hard work by participating in a potato harvest to benefit local food banks. On Saturday, about 15 scouts, their families and friends, as well as members of the Church of the Holy Cross in Redmond, worked together to harvest 5,135 pounds of Yukon gold, red new, russet and fingerling potatoes — about 20,000 servings of mashed potatoes.
volved after Martin Sleeman, pack master for the Cub Scouts, learned what Eichner was doing and wanted to lend a hand. Sleeman thought it was a great opportunity for the scouts to help their community. “It is one of the major focuses of scouting,” he said. Sleeman added that it was also an opportunity for the boys to get outside and visit a farm, which many of hadn’t experienced before this. “They were pretty excited,” Sleeman said about the scouts’ reactions to getting involved.

DanceWorks will mark its 11th year with a party Samantha Pak spak@redmond-reporter.com
DanceWorks Studio in Redmond opened its doors on Sept. 10, 2001. In the wake of the terrorist attacks that took place the following day, cofounders Scott Franklin and Suzana Persa debated whether to hold the Friday night dance party they had planned for later that week. In the end, they decided to continue with their plans and included a moment of silence during the party to remember and honor those who had died earlier in the week. The night was a huge success.
“And we’ve been dancing ever since,” said Franklin who is also co-owner and manager of DanceWorks. From basic hip-hop and beginners’ foxtrot to the Argentine tango and all levels of the West Coast Swing, the studio has been getting people moving for more than a decade. To celebrate its 11th year in business, DanceWorks will host a special anniversary showcase performance and party beginning at 7 p.m. on Saturday at its downtown studio, located at 16641 Redmond Way. Franklin said the evening will open with a one-hour rumba dance lesson, fol-
The Lake Washington School District (LWSD) Elementary Quest Program will accept applications for students who will enter grades 2-5 in the 2013-14 school year. Applications are available from Oct. 1 until Oct. 30, 2012 at 4:00 p.m. First grade students attending LWSD schools should not apply during this application period. Details on first grade applications for LWSD students will be announced in school newsletters and on the Quest website. Parents are invited to attend the elementary Quest information night: Thursday, Sept. 27 at either 4:30 p.m. or 7:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at Redmond Middle School: 10055 166th Ave N.E. Redmond, 98052. Attendance at this meeting is not required to apply. Go to www.lwsd.org/quest for more information or contact the Quest office 425-936-1238; quest@lwsd.org.

lowed by performances by students and instructors, as well as professional dancers. The evening will end with a dance party. Franklin added that fine hors d’oeuvres will be served throughout the evening. The event is open to the public and tickets are $15 in advance or $20 at the door. For more information, visit www.danceworksstudio.com. Franklin said DanceWorks has actually been in business for about 12 and a half years, but for the first year and a half or so, the dance lessons took place on racquetball courts in athletic clubs, in students’ homes or wherever they could find space. “It’s been a great ride,” he said about the past dozen or so years. “I’m very grateful to the students.” While Franklin gave the lessons, Persa oversaw the design and construction of the studio. Persa has now retired from the business, but Franklin said her input and role early on has been a critical component in creating a welcoming environment they strive to maintain at the studio. “It’s a very inviting place,” he said.
FOR 2012-2013 CLASSES
DanceWorks focuses mostly on social dancing and very little on competitive dancing. Peggy Hail, who has been taking lessons for about a year, said she appreciates this more low-key approach to dancing and finds it more fun. She mostly dances West Coast Swing and a little bit of salsa, but she also likes to try different styles when she has the time to attend a class. Hail began taking dance lessons as a way to get out of her comfort zone and said the most challenging part of learning to dance has been learning the different steps. Although she may find danc-
ing difficult, it hasn’t stopped Hail. “I’ve always wanted to dance,” she said. Hail will be one of the students performing on Saturday. She will be dancing cha-cha, waltz and West Coast Swing to a medley of country music. “It’ll get me out of my comfort zone for sure,” she said. Franklin said people take dance lessons with them for a variety of reasons including date night for couples, creative outlet, stress reliever and socializing. DanceWorks students’ ages range from 12-
workers dumped 35 yards of gravel/ dirt in three piles the day before to cover the trail, which is about .25 of a mile in green belt. Volunteers smoothed out the piles. • Farrel-McWhirter Park: 60 volunteers showed up to remove blackberries from Farrel-McWhirter.

85 and represent all demographics. “We have a real broad range,” Franklin said. He added that he really enjoys seeing some of the transformations in his students during the course of their lessons. For example, Franklin said one individual who came to the studio had a real desire to dance, but they were very quiet and shy. Eventually the student broke out of their shell and performed during one of DanceWorks’ showcases. “To see that transformation is really rewarding for me,” Franklin said.

King County has launched Smart911, an effort to allow citizens to create a safety profile with their own secure personal information, including primary language, medical, disability and more. Smart911 will soon be available to all King County 911 centers and emergency responders when citizens call 911. “With Smart911, people can put critical personal information in their safety profile associated with their various phone numbers,� said City of Redmond Mayor John Marchione. Smart911 is a supplemental data service that allows people to register in advance any and all of their phones — landline, wireless or VOIP. They can also add addresses associated with that phone number. They can do the same for work, school or cell phones, as well. Citizens can register their whole family.

If you’re suffering from nerve problems in the arms and legs, you must read about a clinical study that showed…
How 85% Of Patients Eliminated Numbness, Tingling, or Sharp Pains Numbness, tingling, and pain is an extremely annoying problem. If You Read Nothing Else,
Read This: More than 20 million Americans suffer from peripheral neuropathy, a problem caused by damage to the nerves that supply your arms and legs. This painful condition interferes with your body’s ability to transmit messages to your muscles, skin, joints, or internal organs. If ignored or mistreated, neuropathy can lead to irreversible health conditions. Why not get help by those trained to correct the major cause of peripheral neuropathy. Read the full facts on this page. It may come and go...interrupts your sleep...and even makes your arm or legs feel weak at times. Maybe you’ve even been to other doctors and they claim all the tests indicate you should feel fine.
More Pills Are Not The Solution
A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method. While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, anti-seizure mediations, and anti-depressants -- all of which have serious side effects.
The Likely Cause Of Your Problem
My name is Dr. Justin Schallmann, owner of Back In Balance Chiropractic. I have been helping people with neuropathy and nerve problems with an Upper Cervical Care procedure called NUCCA (National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association) for over 8 years. Often neuropathy is caused by a degenerating spine pressing on the nerve roots. This can happen in any of the vertebral joints from the neck all the way down to the tail bone. The good news is that chiropractic treatments have proven effective in helping to remove the pressure on the nerves. By using this gentle technique, I’m able to release the pressure that has built up on the nerve. This allows the nerve to heal and the symptoms to go away.
For example, numerous studies have proven chiropractic’s effectiveness in helping nerve conditions. Patients showed an 85.5% resolution of the nerve symptoms after only 9 chiropractic treatments. - Journal of Chiropractic Medicine 2008 With chiropractic care, patients had “significant improvement in perceived comfort and function, nerve conduction and finger sensation overall.” – JMPT 1998 “Significant increase in grip strength and normalization of motor and sensory latencies were noted. Orthopedic tests were negative. Symptoms dissipated.” – JMPT 1994 What these studies mean is that you could soon be enjoying life...without those aggravating nerve problems.
Could This Be Your Solution?
It’s time for you to find out if Upper Cervical Care will be your neuropathy solution. “For the first 25 callers only, $29 will get you all the services I normally charge new patients $250 for!” What does this offer include? Everything. Take a look at what you will receive: • An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being where I will listen…really listen…to the details of your case. • A full set of specialized x-rays to determine if a spinal problem is contributing to your pain or symptoms… (NOTE: These would cost you $130). • A thorough analysis of your exam and x-ray findings so we can start mapping out your plan to being pain free. • I’ll answer your most probing questions about nerve problems and how Upper Cervical Care can help.
Our Patients Say It Best… “This was my first visit to a chiropractor; I am now pain free and have taken back the walker I had to rent. I have full mobility and the improvement to my neuropathy in my hand and feet has been amazing.”
DON’T LET NUMBNESS, TINGLING AND PAIN HOLD YOU BACK FROM ENJOYING LIFE. If you are one of The First 25 Callers, you can get everything I’ve listed here for only $29. The normal price for this type of evaluation including x-rays is $250, so you’re saving a considerable amount by taking me up on this offer. Call 425-437-9974. We can get you scheduled for your consultation, exam and x-rays as soon as there’s an opening. Our office is called Back In Balance and we are located at 2761 152nd Ave NE in Redmond. When you call, tell the receptionist you’d like to come in for the Nerve Evaluation so she can get you on the schedule and make sure you receive proper credit for this special offer. Sincerely, Justin Schallmann, D.C. P.S. Remember to call and reserve an appointment at this significant discount for The First 25 Callers. Why suffer for years in misery? That’s no way to live, not when there could be an easy solution to your problem. P.P.S. Nothing’s worse than feeling great mentally, but physically feeling held back from life because your arms or legs hurt – and the pain just won’t go away!
