Man takes action for domestic violence victims BY RAECHEL DAWSON rdawson@kirklandreporter.com

One Kirkland man has worked hard to collect donations for victims of domestic violence this holiday season. Bill Henkens, owner of The Game Neighborhood Grill and Bar in Kirkland, said customers have donated $600 in gift cards and surpassed their goal by fulfilling 125 wish tags. Wish tags are cards with a written wish by children or

mothers affected by domestic violence. The restaurant’s goal was to satisfy 100 wishes. But Henkens expects they will receive up to 140 donations, which will help at least 120 families on the Eastside. The wishes are not extravagant or grandiose, Henkens says, but usually basic necessities. “Sometimes the mom just wants a haircut and the kid wants new T-shirts,” Henkens said.

This is the restaurant’s third year asking for donations to give to LifeWire, formally known as the Eastside Domestic Violence Program. Henkens holds the title as the King County Coalition Against Domestic Violence 2010 Take Action Award winner. His daughter is a therapist and does teen outreach for LifeWire. But Henkens said it was Jennifer Chambers, the restaurant’s general manager, who spear-

headed the effort and it’s the customers who are making a difference. According to him, former Kirkland Mayor Santos Contreras and Councilmen Bob Sternoff and Toby Nixon have donated through his restaurant. “The holidays can be a difficult time for a parent who is not able to provide gifts for their children,” said a LifeWire bulletin. “Each wish [ more LIFEWIRE page 3 ]

Couple awakes in sinking boat

Hope for Sandy Hook: Kirkland community sets up memorial fund

Strong winds made for a rocky and nerve-racking night for many boat owners in Kirkland. But for one couple it was what they awoke to Monday morning that was the scariest of all. A couple, sleeping in their boat at the Kirkland marina, awoke to a stranger yelling for them to get off their 40-foot vessel that was sinking. “They were woken up by a jogger,” said King County Marine Patrol Sgt. Jim Kanauss. “The winds over night damaged the boats to the point that they began to take on water.” Kanauss said that the boats were moored improperly, which contributed to the sinking. One boat sank to the bottom of the shallow marina waters but the top half of the boat was still visible. The other was still floating but on its side. The couple was able to get

Mike Iszley, left, awoke on his boat to the lights of rescue vehicles Monday morning, as two other boats in the Kirkland marina sank due to high winds and being moored improperly. MATT PHELPS, Kirkland Reporter off the boat on their own but did sustain minor injuries, including a laceration to the head, according to a Kirkland Fire spokesman. Both were treated at the scene. One of the boats had a large piece of the transom broken off, according to the Kirkland Firefighters’ Facebook page. “They had to get down into the water to get off the boat,” said Kanauss, who noted that it only took first responders 3-5 minutes to get to the

marina. The Kirkland Fire Department responded first to the call for a surface water rescue at 5:45 a.m. at 25 Lakeshore Plaza. In all, seven units responded to the incident. The crews found two 40-foot boats sinking independent of each other at the marina. “Both boats went sailing with the Christmas Ships last night and were moored here overnight,” said Kanauss. Mike Iszley of Seattle was

also sleeping on his boat Sunday night at the Kirkland marina after joining the Christmas Ships event. “I stayed the night and woke up to the red lights from the police and fire rescue vehicles,” said Iszley. “I was surprised my boat was the only one left floating.” Iszley said he did not know the couple in the boat that sank but that he gave the man a pair of shoes as he did not have time to grab any.

hen Kirkland resident Joene LaBou heard the news of the Sandy Hook Elementary school shootings her heart broke just as many Americans’ hearts did. And, like many Americans, she asked what could be done – not in politics, social reform or mental health research, but out of love for her fellow neighbors, and naturally she went to Facebook and planted an idea. “I have a thought. As I read about (the tragedy) today and how difficult it would be for the children and teachers to return to that school, what if we each send a single brick to Sandy Hook?” Labou wrote on her Facebook wall. “If

everyone in the country could, they could build a new school with bricks of hope and prayer from our love and concern. Who’s with me on this? If you are, please share.” And people did. LaBou said she’s received well over 100 responses, mostly from Kirkland residents, and the number is growing. Brick by Brick was formed with the intent to send bricks with personalized messages of comfort, inspiration or love to Sandy Hook Elementary or the fire station that housed the children after the shooting. “This has gone so fast, I didn’t expect it to get so big,” Labou said. “I feel like we’re all walking around wishing there was something [ more HOPE page 3 ]

How to talk to your kids about shooting tragedies O

situation. Here are some other tips for helping kids: • Encourage children to talk about their feelings. Ask what they have seen or heard and if there’s anything they’re worried about. Then give them only as much information as you feel they need, and let their responses guide you. • Let your children know their fears and emotions are okay by acknowledging their feelings while providing reassurance. Don’t minimize their concerns by telling them not to worry, especially since any subsequent incident will diminish that line of logic. • During the heat of the crisis, keep the news off when your kids are in ear shot and try not to bring it up excessively.

Even young kids absorb more than you realize, even when they don’t appear to be paying attention. • Use the news as a teachable moment when you can share your family values. For instance, you might point out the importance of helping those who are unable to help themselves. • With older children, use the news to discuss tough issues raised in these stories, like accepting people from different religions or cultures. • Keep the news off when your kids are in earshot and reduce talking about it when they might overhear. It’s important to remember that as scary as these recent random acts of violence have been, more kids are harmed by guns in the home.

Figures gathered from emergency rooms across the US show that around 20,000 children are injured by firearms each year, and 900 incidents are fatal. If you own a gun, this is an ideal time for a safety check: keep it locked, out of reach of kids, and unloaded. But even if you don’t own a gun, remember your child may still play at a home that has guns, or be exposed to a gun if someone brings it to school or the park. Tell your children that if another child shows them a gun or they see an adult other than a police officer or soldier with a gun in a public setting, they should absolutely tell you or another adult immediately. If they are alone and have a cell phone, instruct them to dial 9-1-1.

Assure them that they won’t be in trouble, and that it could help avoid someone getting hurt or killed.

currently in the process of securing a warehouse and forklift to set up shop. She’s already raised a couple thousand dollars and says the money will be used for installation of the monument, brick pathway or garden patio, depending on how many bricks she gets. LaBou contacted a representative with the

St. Rose of Lima Catholic Church in Newtown about her idea and she said he was very thankful and planned to announce her efforts at mass. LaBou said on Tuesday evening the church had been doing two funerals a day for the victims and that when she spoke to the church official last Saturday, he was “over-

wrought with grief.” “There are no words,” she said. “From the west coast to the east coast, this great country of ours can show Sandy Hook our support, hope, our

In 2011, LifeWire staff answered 10,716 crisis line phone calls and served 5,179 individuals. Funding for the organization has been fairly steady from the cities around the Eastside, but this year Henkens traveled to a Bothell City Council meeting to ask them to reconsider funding cuts. “We must protect our mothers, sisters and daughters and we must educate them to be aware of the early warning signs of domestic violence,” Henkens told the Bothell City Council in November. LifeWire development director Kelly Becker said funding from cities has usually been pretty stable but because the cost of living is always increasing, the steady funding they receive is often

we may not be able to protect our children from crisis, but we can react in a way that prevents it from causing undue stress. When disaster or violence hits the news, we sometimes want to hold our kids closer and avoid similar settings. But it’s important to let them go about their usual activities—even if it includes a trip to the theater. When kids hear these stories, they often have fears about whether it will happen to them. Talk with them honestly about what happened, but don’t overly focus on it. Sometimes fear can be allayed in older children by helping them plan what they would do to stay safe if they were caught in a dangerous Patti Skelton-McGougan

n behalf of the staff at Youth Eastside Services, I offer our condolences to the families of the victims of the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut and the shooting at Clackamas Town Center in Oregon. The news of 29 deaths, 20 of them children, is heartbreaking news for adults; it is even more unfathomable and frightening for children. In the past year, it seems we have been bombarded with stories about senseless violence. And while such tragedies may create worry for even the most hardy adult, the intensity and constant be especially confusing and frightening for children and teens. So how do we help our kids cope?

I am humbled by the trust you have placed in me and all the members of the council to make difficult decisions on your behalf.

Lake Street Place building is monolithic The proposed Lake Street Place development, the 5-story monolithic building in the heart of downtown Kirkland, hard against its neighbors to the north and east, will forever change the downtown’s open and refreshing character. And once erected, there is no going back. Once built, the resulting dark 15-20 foot wide tunnels along the building’s north and east sides (which one of the DRB members termed “medieval”) will never receive the sun, and will repel, not invite Kirkland’s citizens. Tinkering with wall surface treatments does nothing to ameliorate this dreadful situation. Only by lowering the building’s height is there hope of retaining Kirkland’s human scale and inviting

personality.

Forcing cars to wait for holiday runners is negligent Sunday morning I was on my way to work at Bellevue Square. I went up State Street to 68th, where I hit the beginnings of a major road block: the 12ks of Christmas Holiday Run. There were police officers at the corner letting pedestrians walk, jog, trot and run by. I was just between the entrances into the Houghton Market, about six cars back. As I looked in my rearview mirror I saw cars and a Metro bus starting to form a long line going back down to State and Lakeview. After about 10 minutes, I called the non-emergency police number and asked if someone could communicate with the officers directing the pedestrians to please halt them every now and then to let some cars through to relieve the backup congestion. The dispatcher told me that if there were uniformed officers directing traffic, no one would contact them. Frustrated, I turned off my car, got out and locked it, then ran up to the officer closest to me directing the pedestrians. I asked him to please let some of the cars through, that the conges-

tion was starting to get dangerous as people were trying to pull away, turn around, blocking driveways and making U-turns. He refused. As I was walking back to my car, people were opening their windows asking me what his response was, and getting angry when I relayed it. I was able to turn around in the parking lot and tried taking a few back streets to go towards Bellevue. Finally, I came up to an area where the pedestrians were heading toward the South Kirkland Park and Ride. Another officer tried to tell me to turn around, and I told him I couldn’t as there was nowhere to go “back.” Finally he allowed me to slip through a break in the foot traffic and I managed to get past the pedestrian traffic. Kirkland needs better traffic control in such situations. Luckily, I had left with an hour to spare, but forcing me to wait for half an hour just to get across Northeast 68th and causing serious traffic issues all to allow pedestrians to move forward in an uninterrupted line across a major city street is tantamount to negligent. Why did the officers not halt pedestrians every so often and allow cars to go through? What is the justification for creating a major traffic jam in a residential area? How can we prevent this from happening again?

Woodlands Park Tot Lot needs community support The Woodlands Park Tot Lot needs your support as it is not part of the recently passed levy. The small play area near Mark Twain Elementary School, funded by city bond funds in 1986, has now been removed for safety reasons due to deterioration. The North Rose Hill Neighborhood Association and Kirkland Kiwanis have been raising money for over a year to replace the structures and so far have only reached just over $4,000 of its approximate $12,000 goal. If you can help our children have a better place to play this summer, make a year-end holiday tax deductible a 501(c)3 contribution to the Kirkland Kiwanis Foundation, 328 19th Ave. 98033-4927. It would be a shame to not see this portion of the park reopen in six months after 25 years of use.

Support bipartisanship resolution of economic issues Elected officials must work together to keep from going over fiscal cliff. Right now, we are not Democrats, Republicans or Independents. We are simply “Americans,” and

as Americans we must stand up for what is best for our country at a critically important time. For far too long, a “fiscal cliff ” has loomed over the U.S. The issue is serious, and CEOs across the nation are working together to encourage Congress to demonstrate that principled compromise is alive and well in this country. Many employees of Frontier Communications live in Kirkland. I have asked them, and I ask all who read this piece, to reach out to their congressional members and support bi-partisanship resolution of the economic issues that demand immediate attention. As we all know, our country is capable of great things; when the cause demands it, we can work together on any issue. The time is long overdue for Congress to do just that. I am proud to be part of a campaign led by CEOs across the country to encourage Congress and the Administration to do the right thing. We are asking our elected officials to work together to prevent the significant negative economic, employment and social consequences of going over the fiscal cliff and the resulting across-theboard tax hikes and dramatic spending cuts scheduled to occur on Jan. 1, 2013. A failure to act will be devastating to the U.S. economy and will harm future generations.

It seems that there should be some follow up communication.” The resident’s home abuts Tent City 4 and he says he believes the parish officials and SHARE members are “very well intended individuals,” but that the organizations’ transparency is lacking. Magnoni said the parish did not reach out to the public because the weekly random sex-offender checks were never implemented and the people who wanted them in place ended up leaving Tent City 4. SHARE officials, who established Tent City in 1990, stated on their website that sex offender checks are always performed prior to admittance and the camp also does outstanding warrant checks as part of their “Good Neighbor Policy.” The issue with Erskine was simply that he had no warrants and was not in the Sex Offender Registry at the time he was accepted to live at the camp, according to SHARE. “Imposing random sex offender checks on individuals because they live in a homeless encampment isn’t based on

the record; it is based on fear,” said SHARE officials on their website Nov. 16. Nonetheless, a select few of Tent City 4 residents made a decision to meet with the pastor on the issue and thus break SHARE’s policy, and eventually break away from SHARE itself to form Camp Unity Eastside. Both SHARE and the barred nine members acknowledge there were deeper issues regarding the split. “SHARE’s our parents so we have to go by their guidelines and their rules,” said Joe Gladson, the current Tent City 4 camp advisor of 37 residents. “They (the nine barred) spoke out of turn.” Now, it seems the 70 or so residents in Camp Unity and their host, Lake Washington United Methodist Church (LWUMC), are meshing well together. Pastor Kelly DahlmanOeth said the members of Camp Unity are “progressing forward” and are in the process of building a shower. He says six to 12 people regularly attend the church services and one person has even joined the church choir. “We make it available without expectation or obligation,” said Dahlman-Oeth about attend-

In his budget message, City Manager Kurt Triplett conveys, “This budget funds the priorities and vision of our citizens as identified by our community survey and achieves progress on the goals adopted by the city council.” He further states, “This budget provides the opportunity to recalibrate the projected revenues and service needs now that the city has been operating in the new neighborhoods since June 1, 2011.” The budget is comprised of 24 separate funds that are independently balanced (i.e. revenues equal expenditures).

The Kirkland City Council adopted the 2013-2014 budget, the 2013-2018 Six Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and the 2012 Property Tax Levy during its Dec. 11 meeting. The two-year budget totals approximately $540 million, which is a 13.2 increase increase from the previous biennial budget due to the full two-year cost of providing services to the new neighborhoods, increased health benefit costs, the passage of Propositions 1 and 2, construction and occupancy of the Public Safety Building and anticipated increases in revenue from Real Estate Excise Tax (REET), impact fees, and lodging tax due to the improving economy. In order to balance the budget, $5.3 million in cuts were necessary to ensure the city’s expenses would

Tent City 4 will move to St. Jude Parish in Redmond on Jan. 12, while Camp Unity is planning to move to Wooden Cross Lutheran Church in Woodinville by Feb. 14. Dahlman-Oeth confirmed that Camp Unity is currently applying their own random weekly sex-offender checks. He says the church has had two community meetings about Camp Unity’s move to the church and there are about three people who are still concerned about the encampment. “We’re all fearful of the ‘stranger in the neighborhood’ and so now we have 70 new people in the neighborhood,” Dahl-

man-Oeth said. “So, I’ve encouraged the people to meet with them, go watch football. Folks are always welcome to have a tour or meet the people.” The pastor said residents of Camp Unity have been very helpful and are regularly looking around to ask how they can help the church.

Grandma falls victim to scam, warns others BY CARRIE RODRIGUEZ

crodriguez@kirklandreporter.com

hen 77-year-old Carol Mahre heard who she thought was her grandson plea for her help on the telephone, she had one thought – he’s in trouble. “First he said, ‘Hi, grandma,’ just like my oldest grandson says,” Mahre recalled of the Nov. 28 phone call. “I said, ‘Hi, Lewis, how are you?’ He said, ‘I’ve got a problem and I’m in jail. I’m being held against my will in a jail in Mexico and I need $2,200 to be released.’” The man told Mahre that he was in an accident and a woman from the U.S. Embassy would call and tell Mahre how she could help her grandson with his release. “I was just astounded and thought, oh, he’s been in a car accident,” said Mahre, who lives just blocks from her grandson in Bothell. “I was so sure I was talking to him. I should have tried to contact my grandson first, but he said, ‘Don’t tell anyone in the family, I’ll tell them when I get home.’” A woman who identified herself as Anna Marie Weston called Mahre and told her that there’s a gag order in place and if she didn’t tell anyone about the accident that the Embassy would send her grandson home right away. The woman, who was very articulate, instructed Mahre to go to the Rite Aid pharmacy in Kirkland’s Totem Lake neighborhood and wire $2,200 in cash to Mexico City via Western Union. When the transaction did not go through, the woman told Mahre to go to a different Rite Aid in downtown Bothell and wire the money to Manila. This time, the transaction went through. That night, Weston called Mahre and

said the money got there too late for the Embassy to get her grandson out of jail that night. She said she would meet with the judge and prosecutor in the morning to discuss his release. The next morning, the woman called back and said the accident was alcoholrelated and Mahre would need to send $10,000 in cash. “I just gasped,” said Mahre, noting that the woman reduced that amount to $6,300 based on her reaction and asked Mahre to send the money in two installments. She went back to the Totem Lake Rite Aid and an employee said, “Weren’t you just in here yesterday? She said, ‘That doesn’t sound right,’” Mahre recalled. Regardless, she wired another $3,900. But when she went to wire the second installment of $2,400 via a MoneyGram to Mexico, an employee at the Lynnwood Walmart noticed something was wrong. “Oh, that’s a scam - don’t you send one more penny,” the employee told Mahre. “The woman said we get people in here all week long that get caught in this scam, don’t send another penny.” Mahre says she fell for the scam “hook, line and sinker. I just feel so stupid - I should have called (my grandson).” She said while most people in this situation would want to hide from embarrassment, she wants to warn as many people as she can so that it doesn’t happen to others. The Washington Attorney General’s Office warns residents about the “grandparent scam,” where cons posing as relatives try to convince elderly victims to wire cash to help pay for emergency car repairs,

medical bills, or even post bail. The Federal Bureau of Investigation said the grandparent scam has been around for several years, noting its Internet Crime Complaint Center has received reports about it since 2008. But the scam and scam artists have become more sophisticated, the FBI reports. The Internet and social networking sites like Facebook help criminals uncover personal information about their targets, which makes impersonations more believable. “They are so slick,” said Mahre. “The police said they call these family names up on a computer and pick people in my age bracket. We love our grandkids so much that we’ll do anything for them.” Mahre said her grandson, who she is really close to, was “just sickened” when he found out what happened. “My kids said, ‘Oh, mom, how could you be so gullible?’” Mahre warns others not to be fooled by the scam. And make the call, she says. “Even though you’re told not to contact your family member, make the call to the person who supposedly needs the money and you’d prevent all of this heartache.” She also said to invest in a caller ID, which she now has to identify callers. Luckily, the cons did not completely ruin Mahre’s Christmas. The Bothell police helped her get her $3,900 back from Western Union. However, they were not able to recover her $2,200. “That’s still a lot of social security checks,” she added. Bothell police officer Steve Kerzman, who helped Mahre get some of her

Carol Mahre, 77, sits in the living room of her Bothell home. She was conned into wiring thousands of dollars at several Western Union locations, including Kirkland, to help her “grandson.” CARRIE RODRIGUEZ, Kirkland Reporter money back, said this type of scam is “unfortunately becoming a common trend where elderly people are being targeted.” Some of the issues the Bothell police have seen are cons calling the elderly and saying they are in jail or the hospital and need money. “The other thing we’re seeing is callers who say the person has won the sweepstakes and asking them to wire the tax money from the sweepstakes,” said Kerzman. “This is all getting wired to other countries, unfortunately, so this makes it very hard for police enforcement to get it back.” He said the department has seen several people recently fall prey to similar scams at the Green Acres Mobile Home Park retirement community in Bothell. “We have people there who’ve been targeted and who have sent well and above $10,000,” he noted. He said the department is in the process of trying to work with local senior communities to bring awareness about scams that target the elderly.

“The elderly tend to be more giving, so there’s not as much hesitation from them,” noted Kerzman. The Bothell Police Department has also discussed ways to alert employees at various Western Union locations about the scam, such as creating an informational brochure. The Washington attorney general made a multi-state agreement with MoneyGram in 2008 that aims to prevent U.S. residents from becoming victims of wire transfer scams. MoneyGram paid $1.1 million to fund a national peer-counseling program to be overseen by the AARP Foundation. The company also agreed to print an attention-grabbing warning on its form that is used to send money and provide enhanced training to branch agents. State attorneys general reached a similar agreement in 2005 with Western Union. Kerzman said the biggest way for people to protect themselves from the grandparent scam is to verify and follow-up with their loved one before sending money.

The list highlights the 510 “best of the best” places to stay in the world according to rigorous screenings by the 47,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers whom voted in the annual Readers’ Choice Survey. Troy Longwith, general manager at The Heathman Hotel, Kirkland said, “It’s been an amazing year for The Heathman Hotels — ranking on the Gold List and in the Top 100 Hotels in the world. Both of the Heathman Hotel establishments offer so much to their communities and guests, and I am eager to share these world-class services with

How to detect a scam The Washington State Office of the Attorney General offers the following tips to detect a scam: 1. Don’t fill in the blanks for the scammer. For example: Caller: “It’s your granddaughter.” Grandparent: “Which one?” Most likely, the con will then hang up. 2. Do whatever is necessary to confirm the real relative’s whereabouts. Call your grandchild’s home, school or work. 3. Don’t send money unless you have verified that your relative is really in trouble. If a caller asks for your bank account number or urges you to send money via Western Union or MoneyGram for any reason, that’s a good indication of a scam. Cons prefer wire transfers because they are fast, there are transfer agents in most communities and funds can be picked up in multiple locations.

Exercise (ACE), a non-profit fitness advocacy organization. Those figures can quickly swell to 4,500 calories and more when all the feasting is considered. Many people start by snacking throughout the day, which combined with the meal can lead to substantial overeating, according to Dr. Cedric Bryant, an exercise physiologist at ACE. However, those casually added calories are rarely remembered. Another source of uncounted calories are often alcoholic beverages. It’s no secret that alcohol consumption escalates during the holiday season. The distilled spirits industry alone makes more than 25 percent of its annual profits from Thanksgiving to New Year, according to reports by Forbes, based on data from the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States. “Many may not realize that even a little daily drinking can lead to weight gain over time,” says Dr. Samara Joy

Nielsen, a senior fellow at the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS). She admits that even health experts tend to forget how many calories from beverages contribute to the total calorie intake among adults. “Although the risks of excessive alcohol consumption in terms of injury and chronic disease are well known, less is known about the calories consumed from alcoholic beverages. As with calorically sweetened beverages, alcoholic beverages are a top contributor to calorie intake but provide few nutrients,” says Dr. Nielsen in a study report published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). While people are becoming increasingly aware of the effects of sodas in terms of weight gain, alcoholic beverages have so far escaped similar scrutiny. Of course, the impact of alcohol on the waistline is not limited to the holidays. About one-third of men and one-fifth of women in Amer-

ica consume calories from alcoholic beverages on most days, according to the CDC report. For most Americans, the average intake is less than 100 calories per day, however, 20 percent of men and 6 percent of women consume more than 300 calories from alcohol on any given day. One of the reasons why the consequences of alcohol consumption are not always understood may be that many people don’t even know what constitutes a “drink,” says the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA). A “standard drink” in the U.S. is defined as any drink that contains 0.6 fluid ounces or 14 grams of pure alcohol. For regular beer that is equivalent to 12 fl oz, for table wine 5 fl oz, and for 80-proof spirits 1.5 fl oz. For beer that’s about 150 calories and for wine 100 calories. For hard liquors, especially when mixed or combined with other ingredients in cocktails, those numbers can be much, much higher.

In light of the the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn., Lake Washington School District Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce has sent an email out to parents and guardians stating that student and school community safety is “always at the forefront” of their efforts. In the letter, Pierce said the district does think about the possibility of these types of incidents and prepares for them with response plans that address a range of emergency situations. “We have lockdown procedures that we practice, as a way to keep intruders from getting into classrooms and other parts of the school,” Pierce wrote. “We have communications tools, both for alerting police of a situation and alerting parents to what has happened and where to go to be reunited with their children. We do drills to prepare for emergencies, whether natural or man made.” Pierce’s letter also said that the district practiced their parent-reunification procedures in October. She said the district will encourage schools to review their crisis plans and reinforce school security and campus visitor procedures. “As part of this effort, we will also reach out to our families and school communities to build greater awareness and knowledge regarding these plans,” Pierce added in the letter. Pierce’s letter has also been posted on the LWSD website.

Holiday light displays benefit a variety of causes BY ELEANOR MUELLER

Close on the heels of the 12K’s of Christmas, Kirkland now celebrates the holidays in yet another way – with its local neighborhoods’ extravagant Christmas lights. From brightly-lit Corgies to arches that flash along with

“Jingle Bells,” houses across town are stepping up their holiday-decoration game, and benefitting a variety of causes in the process. First on the tour are the McConnells, who reside at 12837 101st Place N.E. Their decorations have been a community favorite for years, with more than 50,000 lights serving to

Set to 22 minutes of music streamed from an FM radio station (107.3), the couple’s display, which includes a 15-foot-tall rotating tree, is so impressive that one year a stranger actually paid their electrical bill for them. “It’s like a winter wonderland,” says Barbara McConnell. “We have a stream, a waterfall, deer and trees, as well as lights on the house that look like falling snow.” However, they didn’t do it for the fame.
