System is tardy: Kent school traffic cameras delayed BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
School traffic cameras will get a late start in Kent. Kent city officials had hoped to have the first cameras operating when Kent schools opened on Aug. 29.
“They’re not up yet ...we’re waiting to hear from the contractor on an actual start date,” said city spokeswoman Michelle Wilmot in an email. “While we had hoped they would be installed and operational by the start of the school year, we’re likely looking at mid-October.”
Arizona-based American Traffic Solutions (ATS), Inc., contracted with the city to provide the camera services that include the equipment as well as mailing out tickets. ATS contracts with Des Moines, Seattle, Federal Way, Issaquah and more than 300 other communities in 21 states to pro-
vide traffic camera services. “We’re told the design and installation process at the video camera locations has taken longer than the contractor originally proposed,” Wilmot said. Charles Territo, ATS spokesman, said during a phone interview Tuesday that the company
ran into “equipment availability issues.” “Kent remains a priority,” Territo said. “We hope to have them installed by mid-October. These are very sophisticated pieces of equipment. We operate on an [ more CAMERAS page 4 ]

Seahawks fan charged for punching man BY STEVE HUNTER
shunter@kentreporter.com
King County prosecutors have charged a 35-year-old Kent man, who also is a Seattle Seahawks fan, with second-degree assault for allegedly punching a Minnesota Vikings fan while leaving a game last November at Century Link Field in Seattle. Seattle Police arrested William D. Vanmeveren for investigation of assault after the Nov. 4 game. He was booked into the King County jail in Seattle and released early the next
day on $1,000 bail pending further investigation into the severity of the victim’s injuries, according to charging papers filed Aug. 26 in King County Superior Court. Vanmeveren is scheduled to be arraigned on Monday, Sept. 9, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. He has been issued a summons to appear in court. The Kent man reportedly “sucker-punched” a Vikings fan in the face as the they left their seats near the end of the game. The Vikings fan fell backwards on stairs

words were exchanged and he didn’t know why someone tried to punch him. He stated the punch barely grazed his chin, so he punched the man (the Vikings fan) in front of him, who was below him on the stairs. Vanmeveren said he knocked the man down and then left. He said he had no injuries himself. He did not report that the man he punched was the person who punched him. The Vikings fan suffered a fractured nose, concussion, cuts and abrasions.

Witnesses said that Vanmeveren attacked the man out of nowhere. The Vikings fan had engaged in good natured joking with the Seahawks fans sitting near to him and his wife during the game. Police arrested Vanmeveren at the game. He told officers he was walking down the stairs and a fist came flying towards his face. No

Late school starts The Kent School District observes a districtwide late-start schedule for all elementary, middle and high schools one day a month except for December. The nine dates: are Sept. 25, Oct. 30, Nov. 20, Jan. 15, Feb. 5, March 5, April 2, May 7 and June 4.
The city of Kent’s ban against recreational marijuana businesses won’t go up in smoke despite the federal government’s stance last week to allow the state to implement its voter-approved recreational marijuana law. “This has no real impact on Kent,” said Tom Brubaker, interim city chief administrative officer, in an email. “The City Council has zoning regulations in place that prohibit the ‘point of distribution centers’ for medical marijuana and also prohibit the manufacturing, distribution, and retail sale of marijuana under Initiative 502. “The City Council has determined that these uses will not be allowed, and that shall remain the city’s course until otherwise directed by the council.” Council President Dennis Higgins would like to see the city lift its ban. But he said he doesn’t have the support of a council majority to dump the ban. “Unless one of my colleagues changes their mind
“We take the time to care for both our Owners and Tenants”
now with the federal stance we’re still in the situation where there will not be any amendments to the code to allow them to come in,” Higgins said during a phone interview. The council banned medical marijuana collective gardens with a 4-3 vote in June 2012 because it believes the businesses violate federal law that lists marijuana as an illegal drug under the federal Controlled Substances Act. The council upheld that view two months ago when told by city staff that the medical marijuana ban also will result in a ban against recreational marijuana businesses. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder issued a statement Aug. 29 that the Department of Justice updated its federal marijuana enforcement policy in light of recent state ballot initiatives in Washington and Colorado that legalize, under state law, the possession of small amounts of marijuana and provide for the regulation of marijuana production, processing and sale. “I think he’s doing the right thing,” Higgins said about Holder’s statement. “I was pleased with their
approach that it’s up to the state to be responsible and make it work and I think they will - not that it makes any difference in Kent.” Higgins wished the city would zone to allow marijuana businesses, similar to Seattle and Kirkland. “We’ll have all the costs of having the bad actors the criminal activity with marijuana - and not get any benefit from the good actors such as the cities that are zoning and that is too bad,” Higgins said. Council members Les Thomas, Bill Boyce, Deborah Ranniger and Dana Ralph voted for the medical marijuana ban. Higgins, Elizabeth Albertson and Jamie Perry were against the ban. Boyce said during a phone interview that he still supports the city’s ban against marijuana businesses. He said that might change next year after he sees how I-502 works next year in other cities. “I want to see how it works first,” Boyce said. “Kent doesn’t have to be the first one. Let’s see how it goes in other cities.”

[4] September 6, 2013 struggling Riverbend Golf Complex. An option to sell the Par 3 course and possibly the driving range to a developer while keeping the 18-hole course remains in play for the city-owned complex. Council members at a Tuesday workshop also discussed the option to cover Riverbend’s debts, capital investments and operating losses through the general fund. The city covers losses of the city-owned ShoWare Center through its general fund. “Before selling the Par 3, I’m open to exploring further how the general fund would absorb the golf course,” Councilwoman Deborah Ranniger said. Councilwoman Jamie Perry proposed using money from the city’s strategic opportunity fund to cover the estimated $650,000 to
$1 million per year it would cost the city to pay down Riverbend’s debt, pay for capital improvements and cover operating losses. “I think it’s a community asset,” Perry said about the complex. “I want to save the whole thing.” Councilman Les Thomas had a quick response to Perry’s comment. “That’s a little bit dreamy,” Thomas said about keeping the entire complex despite the financial struggles. “Maybe the Par 3 and driving range could go to a developer for a hotel or something with the (18-hole) golf course across the street.” Riverbend’s operating losses and a $2.25 million debt has caused city officials to look at ways to get the complex self-sustainable financially. The facility has lost nearly $1.4 million over the last four years, including $220,903 in 2012, according to city documents. The debt

It’s not an excuse, just a reason.” The City Council unanimously approved plans in May to install cameras on streets in front of Sunrise Elementary, 22300 132nd Ave. S.E., on the East Hill, and at Neely-O’Brien Elementary, 6300 S. 236th St., in the Valley. “I am disappointed because I had hoped we could have started when school started,” said Councilman Bill Boyce during a phone
is owed to an inter-fund loan, money that the city borrowed from its water and fleet funds to help pay off the bond for the golf complex. “We’re talking about the survival of the entire complex and how do we save golf in Kent,” said Council President Dennis Higgins, who asked city staff to look into whether it would make sense to try to sell the complex to a private operator. Higgins, Thomas, Bill Boyce and Dana Ralph each said they were opposed to covering the golf course costs through the general fund. Councilwoman Elizabeth Albertson did not attend the workshop because of a dental procedure. “To take money out of the general fund to subsidize the golf course, I can’t do that,” Boyce said. “I know we do that for ShoWare, but I hope we don’t have to continue that and it will show a profit.”
interview Tuesday. Boyce, a former Kent School Board member, brought the proposal for school traffic cameras to the city to improve safety for children and not as a way for the city to increase revenue. “It’s all about public safety and making sure kids are safe,” Boyce said. The program initially is projected to bring in an estimated $421,000 in the first year to the city, according to city documents, although that figure is expected to be adjusted with the installation delay.
Thomas said he didn’t think most residents would want the city to cut police officers out of the general fund in order to pay for the golf course. But Perry later brought up the idea to use the strategic opportunity funds rather than cutting other city services. Residents who showed up at Riverbend open houses earlier this summer mainly opposed selling the Par 3 course. Higgins said at the workshop he would like to have a decision by the council by the end of the year. City staff will return to the council with more information about the potential options later this fall. “We’ll look at the strategic opportunity fund, other city needs and the enterprise option,” said Tom Brubaker, city interim chief administrative officer. “We’ll bring back options the best we can.”
An update about the school traffic cameras installation is expected at the council’s Public Safety Committee meeting on Tuesday, Boyce said. Tickets will cost $124 for drivers going 1 to 9 mph over the 20 mph speed limit and $248 for drivers 10 mph or more over the limit. Wilmot said the city will provide plenty of advance notice when the date is determined when the cameras become operational. The program will cost the city about $150,000 per year, including $97,000 to ATS for the four

cameras; $20,000 for pay to police officers to review the video; $26,000 for Municipal Court staff; and $7,000 for city legal staff. Revenue, which will easily cover the costs, is projected to be $571,000 the first year based on the number of speeders who exceeded 20 mph during the traffic studies at Sunrise and NeelyO’Brien. The two schools were chosen for the cameras because speeding traffic studies showed the most violations at the two schools, according to city officials. The program is aimed at reducing speeds

cemetery itself. Bouton says that she selected the threshold idea over three others, which she felt were too esoteric and lacked a connection to the cemetery. By stepping through each threshold, she says, visitors are acknowledging that person’s markerless grave. The Saar Pioneer Cemetery is the final resting place for many Kent-area pioneers. Of the approximately 200 people buried here, including five Civil War veterans, there are 89 graves with no existing headstones. Burial remains from 1873 through 1949 include many infants, some suicides, a murder victim, as well as deaths from childbirth, drowning, disease and old age. 4Culture, a Seattle nonprofit, dedicated to preserving the arts and cultural heritage in King County, provided funding for the project, a fourpart application process. First Bouton submitted a proposal to the organization, which took her proposal and solicited artists. The artists then sent Bouton concepts, and Bouton’s selected concept was vetted again through 4Culture. Nelson and Gunn will host a closing ceremony for the artwork on Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. and it will be dismantled on Sept. 29.

Prothero explained that Sharp needed money to help his struggling business and his mother agreed to loan him the money. Sharp owns Minuteman Press in Kent. He served as president last year of the Kent Chamber of Commerce. “Ken’s business was failing during the recession and his mom wanted to help her son, the man who had been helping her and taking care of her on a weekly if not more frequent basis,� Prothero said. “She wanted to help him and help his business and she chose to do that. Everything that Ken did was done openly, honestly and in good faith which his mother understood and agreed to.� The seven counts are for the seven dates between August 2010 and August 2011 when Sharp transferred funds from Helen Sharp’s bank account into his own account, according to charging papers. “Sharp, with intent to deprive another of property, did wrongfully obtain such property belonging to Helen Sharp and did obtain
Kent City Council candidate Ken Sharp, left, chats with attorney Mark Prothero after pleading not guilty to theft charges on Aug. 29 in King County Superior Court in Kent. STEVE HUNTER, Kent Reporter control over such property belonging to Helen Sharp by color and aid of deception, and did exert unauthorized control over such property belonging to Helen Sharp,� Senior Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Page Ulrey wrote in the charging documents. Ken Sharp received power of attorney in 1995 for Helen Sharp’s financial decisions with the approval of her family members. Helen Sharp had lived in her Tacoma home until moving to a Federal Way assisted-living facility in 2008 because of failing health. At that time, Helen Sharp had liquid assets of $220,000 and monthly living expenses of about $5,000 per month that Ken Sharp paid for out of Helen Sharp’s bank account. Family members told police in April that they later discovered from a reverse mortgage statement mailed to Helen Sharp that Ken Sharp had initiated a reverse mortgage loan on Helen Sharp’s home in Tacoma in August 2010. Ken Sharp had told his mother a loan was needed to fix up her house. Detectives discovered through bank records that Helen Sharp’s account received a wire deposit of $263,596.08 on Aug. 19, 2010, just a week after the reverse mortgage application was completed. On that same date, $200,000 was transferred from Helen
Sharp’s account into Ken Sharp’s account. “His sisters were aware of the loan,� Prothero said. “They advised their mother not to do so but she chose to do so and she was competent at the time. One of her daughters suggested that she cancel the loan so even her sisters believed she was competent at the time in 2010.� During an interview with detectives, Sharp said he paid his mother’s bills out of her account or by transferring money to his account. He said the more than $490,000 transferred into his account between 2008 to 2011 was with understanding from his mother that she would help him pay off his debts and bills from his business. Prosecutors found evidence to charge Sharp with the theft of $297,500 out of the $490,000 that changed bank accounts. Helen Sharp signed a notarized statement on Sept. 8, 2012, where she stated: “I, Helen Sharp, gave rights to Ken Sharp as my Power of Attorney so he could pay my bills. I did not want a reverse mortgage or any other loan on my house. I did not give Ken Sharp any money for his business or any other reason.� Detectives confirmed through an interview with the Federal Way assistedliving facility director that Helen Sharp suffers from

Prothero said Sharp planned to pay the money back after his business took off again. “The hope was that (money) would be recuperated as the business got on its feet and grew and profited and the housing market returned and the house would be able to be sold for what it was worth at the time,� Prothero said. “Neither of those things happened and that’s why we’re here. Ken made attempts to reach out and rectify things and make arrangements to begin to pay back on the loan and that was rejected by his sisters because they didn’t think the monthly payments were enough and they wanted more.� The charging papers indicate that Ken Sharp reportedly used the money to help out his financially struggling business as well as to pay for trips to Spain and South Africa and to buy jewelry (with debits to a jewelry store in Tacoma of $10,000 and $2,358). Prothero denied Sharp spent any of his mother’s money on trips or jewelry. “Ken met his now wife Sara Sharp, a U.S. Army veteran who had savings and income that they lived off of,� Prothero said. “She surprised Ken with the trip to Spain. The trip to Africa was purchased at a charity auction event at less than half of what it was really worth. They paid for that out of Sarah and Ken’s money. He did derive an income from his business. He paid himself for the

that payments for Helen Sharp’s care at the Federal Way assisted-living facility fell behind in 2010 and 2012 with numerous late fees charged.

Sharp faces a prison sentence of 22 to 29 months, according to Dan Donohoe, spokesman for the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. Sharp is scheduled to return to court Oct. 2 when a trial date could be set or attorneys could ask for more time to prepare the case. Sharp said in an email after charges were filed Aug. 15 that he “absolutely� planned to stay in the race against Bailey Stober to replace Elizabeth Albertson, who decided not to seek reelection. Despite publicity about his arrest for investigation of theft, Sharp won the primary race Aug. 6 over Stober and Barbara Phillips to determine which two candidates advanced to the Nov. 5 general election. “Ken’s not guilty of criminal theft,� Prothero said during an interview after the plea. “He had no criminal intent to steal from his mother. Our position is that his mom was competent in 2010 when they entered into the loan agreement. She was subject to independent evaluations by the mortgage company and the U.S. HUD (Housing and Urban Development) certified counselor that interviewed her to make sure she knew what she was doing and that is what she wanted to do.�
work he did so he did have an income when this was happening. To suggest he lived a lavish lifestyle from money out of his mother’s account is not true. “They were a middle-aged couple falling in love and courting and dating. They did take these trips but it wasn’t out of mom’s pocket.� Police also discovered

Stober is not qualified for Kent City Council Bailey Stober’s entire resume is at best an embellishment. He has held at best three or four positions in the past three years of no note or responsibility worthy of consideration to qualify to hold any position on the Kent City Council. He touts abilities that are not proven out in any body of work, blows out of proportion past jobs and imagined accomplishments that are not traceable or able to be proven. You can find his name synonymous in the dictionary with the word “sinecure,” as someone who “aspires to an office or position requiring little or no work, especially one yielding profitable returns.” You will find Mr. Stober currently enjoying such a position in the office of African American Affairs for the State of Washington,

We recently got word of three more sales – The Boston Globe, Newsweek, and The Washington Post. The Globe is notable for it’s diminished value, what the New York Times Co. bought for $1.1 billion they sold for a tiny frac-
tion at a mere $70 million. Jeff Bezos, of Amazon. com, bought the Post for $250 million, also undoubtedly less than the paper would have fetched a decade ago. Does anyone even remember Newsweek? There is the still-looming question of what will happen to the

Question of the week:
Washington state’s economy may be getting back on track but it will jump off again quickly if our state legislators cannot put aside their differences and put together a transportation package fully funding major projects in our South Sound region, such as the completion of both SR 509 and SR 167, the Federal Way Triangle and the enhancements to the southern part of I-405. Thousands of short-term jobs and tens of thousands of long-term jobs are at risk if we do not complete projects that have been in the pipeline for nearly 40 years designed to reduce the regional congestion that frustrates citizens, delays the moving of goods and services through our ports, and forces businesses out of the area. The Kent Chamber of Commerce is a member of the South Sound Chamber of Commerce Legislative Coalition (SSCCLC), and understands the importance of thinking broadly about our transportation solutions. The SSCCLC came together several years ago to force this broader discussion. After seeing transportation dollars going all over the state with no thought to overall economic benefit, we wanted to highlight how investments in our region impact the economy of the entire state. The impact is backed up by statistics out of the Connecting Washington Transportation Task Force clearly showing the South King County and Pierce County regions as an area for significant potential job growth and business location. The completion of SR 167, as an example, is estimated to create 80,000 long-term permanent jobs according to the Washington State Department of Transportation. Studies show that completing SR 509 will generate $700 million new construction, and nearly
Tribune Co. papers, namely the Chicago Tribune and LA Times. Speculation has swirled for years about their sale, which was stirred up again this year when Tribune Co. emerged from bankruptcy.

sive background in policy and public relations. Before his appointment to the Commission, Bailey served as a Community & External Affairs Director in the healthcare sector. In that capacity he represented healthcare interests to community groups, elected officials and stakeholders. In previous roles he has worked with a wide range of elected officials on public policy and legislative initiatives both locally and statewide. In addition to public policy, his professional background includes experience in Corporate Loss Prevention & Investigations. He has worked with law enforcement agencies and prosecutors on internal investigations, organized retail crime investigations and complex fraud cases. He is a member of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners as well as holds an advanced certificate in the Reid Institute’s [ more LETTERS page 7 ]
flagship of the company. And then there is the experiment that is the Orange County Register, where two middle-age owners have poured money into the place and adding pages, sections, and entire publications not to mention adding to the newsroom staff. It’s the classic “if we build it they will come” tactic. Time will only tell if that approach will work. It’s not all bad news, there are papers out there that are still profitable, albeit at smaller margins than [ more SMITH page 7 ]

www.kentreporter.com $34 million in new state and local tax revenues. In addition, our region includes both major seaports and an international airport that handle cargo and passengers from all across the state. However, our region is also home to some of the most frustrating traffic congestion – congestion that puts Washington at a competitive disadvantage compared to the rest of North America. With other states and Canada putting more money into their ports, along with the improvements to the Panama Canal, our state’s ports are at risk of losing business if we don’t improve freight mobility. With 40 percent of the state’s jobs – in both Eastern and Western Washington – tied to port-related
[ SMITH from page 6 ] they used to be. The smaller, community journalism papers have been known to be in the black. It happens. With a sale comes the inevitable question which have plagued journalism professionals for the past decade: what will become of us? Collectively, however, the business model for journalism is broken. It has been limping along, wounded by a circulation scandal in the mid-2000s, the implosion of advertising revenue thanks to the Internet and the bursting of the housing bubble – the latter of which was accelerated by economic collapse of 2008. Historically, advertising has
activity, harming our ports’ competitiveness would be devastating. This past legislative session, legislators came closer than ever to developing a package that put more focus on transportation projects that would have a significant benefit to the entire state. This meant the South Sound region was finally given the attention it deserves because of the overall statewide economic impact. We appreciate all of the work that was done this session and were frustrated that agreement could not be reached. However, we are hopeful that our legislators and those from around the state will come together and put together a plan that works to build our state’s economy. The transportation plan, as it currently stands, still
needs some work. We need to make sure the public is assured their dollars are being spent wisely and funded projects will have tangible benefit for the state. In addition, we need to make sure we do not partially fund projects with the promise of “completion later.” The SR 509, SR 167, Federal Way Triangle and I-405 projects have been identified as necessary for the state’s economy but the economic benefit can only be realized with completion. Our state’s businesses and citizens need to be able to count on the reduced congestion and freight mobility in order to plan for the future.
carried the industry – the newsstand and subscription prices have never been enough to support the production costs – which worked fantastically when it was the main vehicle for reaching consumers. But we’ve all seen how that came crashing down. This has led may to believe that journalism is dying. A sad state of affairs that would be. As long as we live in a republic, we need the fourth estate. We need passionate, committed people who are willing to search for the truth, have the knowledge, and put in the time to inform citizens. We need people who are willing to serve as the watchdog. To survive, to flourish,
we need to try new things. We need to be unafraid of trying. What other option do we have? Journalism isn’t dying, but it is evolving. Will, our society value our work enough to come along for the ride? No one yet knows what Bezos’ strategy with The Post will entail in practice, but in his letter to the staff he emphasizes innovation and experimenting. Perhaps that means he will be willing to try something new, and not re-hash what other owners have tried to no avail. But he’s willing to try, so I have to give him props for that.

as well, even though the plan is for 2007-2009. That entire website denotes an utter lack of attention and effort. It is an empty shell. The only up-to-date portion of this entire website is the calendar and the resume of the executive director and the executive assistant. Let us take a look at the most important item on this website, the most current posted budget from 2007. It lists 59 percent of $242,000 as salary for the two staff members. This is an appointed position by the governor, according to the website. It does not look like the governor or the state is getting much that at least is visible to the naked eye. I would
like to know the current budget for this office. This office could easily suffice on the backs of the current volunteer board members without the office, the staff, and the administrative expenses, and still have the ear of the governor at no taxpayer expense. Stober is not qualified for any office that directs the funds of the taxpayer to their use in any civil government setting, whether elected or appointed. After a year on the job in his current capacity, he has proven that doing nothing so far is profitable.

Matthew Nelson best describes his dad’s legendary music and acting career as a series of comebacks. When criticized – even booed off the stage – undaunted Ricky Nelson would return to play again. “What I learned from him, more than anything, is to never give up, and he never did,” Matthew Nelson said of his famous father, America’s first “Teen Idol” of the 1950s who eventually blossomed to became a Rockabilly and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame musician and singer-songwriter. Globally recognized but not universally loved, Ricky Nelson played to his own beat, performing music that transcended genres, from rock to pop, folk to country. Despite the critics, especially those who scrutinized the man late in his up-anddown career, Ricky Nelson persevered to become one of the most important rock artists and influential musicians of the last 50 years, producing more than 100 million lifetime record sales. “He was one of the only guys who really reinvented himself and did something completely different,” Matthew Nelson said by phone from Nashville, Tenn. “A lot of people in America

were writing him off as a made-for-TV pretty boy … only to (became) a vital and relevant artist. … He got a chance to find himself but had to do it very publicly because he was always so famous.” Ricky Nelson’s life and music touched millions and greatly influenced his twin sons – multi-platinum recording artists Matthew and Gunnar Nelson – who relive the star’s music and memories in an interactive multi-media event, Ricky Nelson Remembered. The two-hour celebration of the late artist’s career comes to the Kentlake Performing Arts Center
Big tour The musical event – one of 100 tour stops the 45-year-old twins will make this year – is heartfelt, soulful and full of laughter, all in tribute to their beloved dad. “He was the nicest guy you have ever met, that’s what impressed me most of all,” Matthew Nelson said. “I never saw him have a celebrity moment or throw a celebrity tantrum. … I
never saw him act like he was better than anybody else. He always looked them in the eyes, shook their hand. He was always sweet. “He always had a smile on his face,” Matthew Nelson added. “His charisma? It was almost worldly. He was really special that way.” For many fans, Ricky Nelson was cool then – on TV, stage and screen – and he remains cool today. “People still love him and they miss him, and that’s why they come to this show,” Matthew Nelson said. Ricky Nelson is the only artist to have a No. 1 song, No. 1 movie and No. 1 TV show in the same week. Life Magazine coined the phrase “Teen Idol” after him. He is credited with pioneering the country rock sound. But as the times changed, so did the music, and Ricky
Nelson struggled to capture an audience. That became evident when Ricky Nelson was booed off the stage at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, seemingly because he was playing his newer, country-tinged music instead of the 1950s-era rock that had made him so successful earlier in his career. In response, a disgusted Ricky Nelson came up with “Garden Party,” which became a 1972 hit, reaching No. 6 on the Billboard charts. Lyrically, Nelson shot back, realizing “you can’t please everyone, so you’ve got to please yourself.” It was yet another unforeseen comeback for Ricky Nelson, whom the music industry considered washed up at the time.

Call it the lunch lady farm tour. Just as the new school year kicks off, two dozen nutrition staff members from the Auburn, Renton and Kent school districts recently gathered at the
Renton School District Nutrition Services office and climbed aboard a big yellow school bus for an hour-long ride to visit Viva Farms in Mount Vernon. It was a chance for those who prepare and serve food for thousands of school
Finding the Connection Since 1989
Ethan Schaffer, executive director of Viva Farms, speaks to the tour group, which includes Janet Gilchrist, far right, with the Kent School District; Tricia Kovacs (with the hat), outreach and education coordinator with the state Department of Agriculture; and Tammy Waterman (blue shirt) with the Kent School District. COURTESY PHOTO programs in their own schools,� Kumagai said. “They meet farmers, chefs, and school officials with successful programs of their own. It’s all about sharing practical, usable knowledge and gaining ownership of their Farm to School programs.� Last June, the three districts used school meal funds to buy asparagus from a Sunnyside farm and radishes from Viva Farms. Tara Hester, with the Renton School District, had her doubts about the asparagus. “I wasn’t sure they would like it raw,� she said of the school children. “They loved it.� This past year, Renton schools have sought more ways to become involved in Farm to School efforts, said Heather Mann, field manager and dietitian in the Renton district nutrition services. Harvest of the Month Program is one effort, where cafeteria staff members highlight a specific crop weekly for an entire
month. This year, as the district’s Farm to School program develops, they’ll try to use local crops more, Mann said. At Viva Farms, executive director Ethan Schaffer led the tour through fields of strawberries and raspberries. Last year was the first time the farm sold produce to schools, he said. One reason was to promote good nutrition in institutional meals, but there are other reasons, too. “One of our missions is to help new farmers succeed,� Schaffer said. “It’s essential to find new markets and schools are a great new market for farmers.� Later, at the nearby Washington State University test kitchen, Chef John Fisher, culinary arts instructor at Renton Technical College, demonstrated school lunch recipes using fresh, local produce like plums and cabbages for September and October Harvest of the Month features.

necting schools to local farmers in their area,” Kumagai said. Carol Barker, child nutrition director for the Auburn School District, said her district has a long history of providing fresh produce and locally sourced foods for its meals. The tour, she said, gave nutrition staff members a chance to see where some of the food comes from, get ideas for preparing fresh produce in an appealing way and learn the purpose behind Farm to School programs. “If they’re excited about it, it’s going to come across in how they present it and how they sell it to the kids,” Barker said. “Kids don’t always want to try new things, but if you talk it up, that can make the difference.”
[ NELSON from page 10 ] “ ‘Garden Party’ is relevant because it was him in particular,” Matthew Nelson said. “After a lifetime of being what everybody wanted him to be … when everybody kind of made a judgement on him, he got to a place to where he finally said, ‘OK, I’ve just been booed off the stage by 20,000 people because I don’t look like I did in the ’50s, and I’m playing Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan songs and new stuff with long hair, and I think I need to say something about it.’ ” Nelson’s comeback was short lived. He produced music and had minor roles on television shows, with moderate success. He died in a plane crash on his way to perform a New Year’s Eve concert in 1985. He was 45. His legacy includes 53 hit singles on the Billboard Hot 100 and 19 other top-10 hits. Now his sons play on, continuing his music, his legacy. “He was our best friend,” Matthew Nelson said. “I always felt that he’s still on the road (performing). He just hasn’t come back yet.”

Kent volunteer group prepares for communications emergencies FOR THE REPORTER
The Kent Communications Support Team (KCST), a dedicated community group of more than 25 amateur radio operators, is an activity of the Kent Emergency Management Department. The group is tasked with providing emergency communications support for the city of Kent in the event
of a natural or man-made disaster. As part of its continuing training, KCST members recently participated in a national amateur radio event, Field Day. The purpose of the event was to prepare and operate an amateur radio site under simulated emergency conditions. The group assembled a multi-operator station at
the Kent Department of Public Works site at 245th Avenue and 224th Street. There were three voice (single sideband-SSB) and one Morse Code (CW) tents, each running 100 watts of power – all powered by gasoline generators and using antennas specially erected on site. The 24-hour exercise was successful and resulted in 262 phone and 114 CW
The KCST (Kent Communications Support Team) is composed of more than 25 amateur radio operators dedicated to providing emergency communications support for the city of Kent. COURTESY PHOTO contacts from Hawaii to Newfoundland. KCST, which has been in operation for four years, has set a high standard for membership.

TOO EMBARRASSED TO SEE A DENTIST? We get it. But we're a different kind of dental office. Really. We focus on complex cases and patients who have dental fears or embarrassment. Your previous dentist may have made you feel bad. But you are welcome here. And you'll be amazed at the difference that makes.

The Kent-Meridian High School girls volleyball team returns to maintain its pedigree next week during its first home match. The Royals feature just two returning starters. Getting the new players up to speed has been the focus of coach Michael Christiansen, who has spent the last week focusing on building cohesion and maintaining a winning mentality. “I’m hoping some of these underclassmen step up and take control of the idea of winning and competing every time we go out and play,” he said. More than 20 girls tried out for the junior varsity and varsity teams, almost twice the number of previous years, Christiansen said. The team’s practices have focused on coordinating positioning as well as passing and setting skills. Despite hitting the ground running from between tryouts and the first days of school, the girls have approached practice enthusiastically. Whether it’s diving for a bump or leaping for a spike, the Royals don’t plan on giving ground easily, and Christiansen’s intense practice
sessions keep the team on its feet and thinking fast. His drills incorporate quickly moving the players around the court, quickly bumping, setting, and spiking before rotating out for another pair. Another highlight of the Royals preseason was their trip to Seattle University on Monday to see the Redhawks square off against the Eastern Washington University Eagles and learn a thing or two from the college teams. Senior setter and team captain Faith Faamausili said that she liked seeing the teams warm up and play, and saw ways to improve her team. Specifically, Faamausili said that while college-level players may execute with more complexity than high school teams, the basics of Kelsie Wang jumps to spike a ball during the Kent-Meridian Royals passing, positioning and footwork remained practice.

Seattle Thunderbirds defenseman Shea Theodore will participate in training camp with the Anaheim Ducks of the NHL before returning for the Western Hockey League season. COURTESY PHOTO, Kyle Scholzen Draft. Last season Theodore was third on the T-Birds in scoring with 19 goals and 31 assists for 50 points with 32 penalty minutes. Delnov will join the camp of the Florida Panthers. He was their fourth-round selection, 114th overall, in the 2012 NHL Draft. Delnov had 20 goals and 29 assists for 49 points last season with the T-Birds. The T-Birds acquired Delnov in the 2012 CHL Import draft with their first round selection. Elliot will attend the Vancouver Canucks camp as a free agent invite. Last season
he played 63 games and had two goals and three assists with 147 penalty minutes. Hauf will attend the Philadelphia Flyers camp as a free agent invite. He had 11 assists in 72 games with 80 penalty minutes last season. Hauf was ranked 103rd in the NHL Central Scouting Rankings for draft eligible players in 2013. Seattle right wing Branden Troock, selected by the Dallas Stars in the fifth round, 134th overall, in the 2012 NHL Draft, is recovering from off-season shoulder surgery and will not be at-
tending the Stars camp. The T-Birds travel to Kennewick for two games at the Red Lion Hotels’ Preseason Tournament at the Toyota Center. On Friday, they will face the Tri-City Americans at 7:05 p.m., and on Saturday, the TBirds will play the Portland Winterhawks at 3 p.m. Seattle closes out the preseason schedule with a home-and-home series against the Everett Silvertips. The T-Birds visit Everett on Friday, Sept. 13, for a 7:35 p.m. game. The T-Birds then make their only pre-season appearance at ShoWare Center on Saturday, Sept. 14 for a 7:05 p.m. contest against the Silvertips.

SPSL swim teams hit the pool BY KATHERINE SMITH ksmith@maplevalleyreporter.com
The South Puget Sound League North girls swim and dive league season is shaping up to be a repeat of last year with Tahoma and Mount Rainier expected to compete for the division title. Kentlake is also looking to be in the hunt this year and improve on its 2012 record of 3-2, with losses to Tahoma and Mount Rainier last year. This year the Falcons have a new head coach, Brad Williams, who has a background in competitive swimming and whose daughter is on the team. Key returners for Kentlake this season are Kyndal Phillips, Allie Losacco, Trisha Glover, Laura Williams, Erin Jones and Jenny Stephanescu. Phillips said she sees one of the teams strengths being how well the girls get along. “Definitely how close we are,” Phillips said. “We get to do a lot of team bonding,” Glover said that the meets and enthusiasm her teammates bring to them is her favorite part of the season. “Everyone gets really pumped and really excited about it,” Glover said. The Kentwood girls swim team has lots of room to grow this year after finishing 1-4 last season. Seniors Natalie Lesnick and Iliana Sanchez have their sights set on improving individually and as a team as well as enjoying their senior year. Lesnick is working toward a trip to the state finals in the 200-yard freestyle and 500 free and Sanchez’s goal is to qualify for the league meet. “I feel like everyone really gets along and we encourage each other,” Sanchez said. Lesnick added that she’s looking forward to the 200 free relay and getting the relay team qualified for the district meet at the end of October. Top returners this year include Lesnick, Sanchez, Drew Vagen, and Mae Waite.

3. Beautify your borders with heucheras. These leafy perennial plants are heaven sent for the gardener that wants both fall and winter color. Grouping peach, orange and burgundy heucheras into color families near walkways and into container gardens is a quick way to cast a warm autumn glow to the landscape. Add some spikes of ornamental grasses, the rich tones of purple and blue asters and fill in with some low-growing winter pansies. The fresh color and new buds is sure to spike a bout of spring fever – even in September.
fall and spring color from the contrast in foliage. Surround the taller smoke tree with three to five dwarf barberry plants. You can also find Golden Spirit smoke trees with glistening gold leaves and use dark purple barberry plants for a color contrast in the same bed. Neither of these plants drink too much or demand extra attention. That’s what I call a marriage of convenience.
For dry shade: Goldstrike Aucuba, Japanese Anemones
Does your landscape drink too much? September is a good month to have an intervention and forcibly remove any landscape plants that need constant water. Adding organic matter to the soil and covering roots with a blanket of mulch will help conserve water around many shrubs but another choice is to plant the drought-resistant couples below for a beautiful plant marriage – with no drinking problems.
The tall, delicate blooms of autumn-blooming Japanese anemones come in shades of white, pink and purple and these perennial plants come back year after year even if grown in the dry shade of cedar and fir trees. Just don’t plant this garden tramp in fertile soil or she will spread quickly and invade other beds. Aucuba is a well-behaved evergreen shrub with large shiny leaves that will thrive in even the darkest shade. Gold spots on the variety Mr. Goldstrike light up any dark corner, but Aucuba is especially valuable near a dark entry where a house can provide protection from winter winds.
For full sun: Royal purple smoke tree and golden nugget barberry
For part sun/shade: Japanese maples and winter creeper euonymus
These two thrive even in rocky or sandy soil. You’ll enjoy great

Enjoy the colors of a second spring with fall magic
glory is as easy as pulling a rabbit foot’s fern out of hat. Here are three quick changes you can make now: 1. Yank out the tallest plant in your potted flowering container and replace it with the colorful stems and leaves of “Rainbow Delight” Swiss chard. This nutritious and shade-tolerant vegetable will provide greens all winter long and by growing it near the kitchen on a porch or patio you’ll have easy access to fresh chard during cold weather. A beautiful bonus is how nice Swiss chard looks with winter pansies and autumn mums. 2. Fill a basket with potted mums and pumpkins. There’s no need to dig, buy potting soil or get your hands dirty. Just bring home some already potted-up mum plants and set them still in their pots inside a bushel basket, hollowed out pumpkin or anything vintage or rusty. An old wagon or wheelbarrow is ideal. Hide the plastic pots with pumpkins and gourds or even colorful fallen leaves. Now you have an autumn display that celebrates the change in seasons. Tip: Check daily to make sure the potted mums have moist soil and buy mum plants with plenty of buds for a long bloom season. Marianne Binetti
The “ber” months begin as autumn ushers in the cold, but here in Western Washington we still have a month of warm weather to enjoy. This is the time to get serious about deadheading, cutting back and watering well if you want to enjoy summer flowers until the first hard frost. Don’t fret if your hanging baskets, container gardens or blooming beds are looking sunburned and summer worn. September begins the show of “Fall Magic” and this is the month when local nurseries renew their stock for a fresh season of flowers. September also is the month to take a critical look at those plants in the landscape with serious drinking problems. You can lower your water bill and raise your real estate value by replacing wilted, leaf-dropping rhododendrons and sun-scorched hydrangeas with drought-resistant trees and shrubs that will happily survive on rainfall alone.
Meet Marianne Marianne Binetti will speak on “Fall Magic” at 10 a.m. Saturday at Windmill Gardens in Sumner. Call 253-863-5843 to reserve a spot. From 10 to 11:30 a.m. Sunday she will address “Drama without the Drinking: Plant Marriages for Fall Color.” Learn to landscape with plants that don’t need water at McLendon’s Hardware, 440 Rainier Ave S. in Renton. There’s no need to register in advance for the free session.
the spectacular Japanese maple will thrive on rainfall alone – but like all newly planted trees and shrubs you will need to keep the soil moist until the roots are established. The low-growing, evergreen euonymus like Emerald Gaiety or the golden Emerald and Gold euonymus adds sweeps of year-long, weed-blocking color. Japanese maples have great figures, come in many shades and leaf sizes and love our winter wet climate. This is the best time of year to add a Japanese maple to the landscape. Marianne Binetti has a degree in horticulture from Washington State University and is the author of “Easy Answers for Great Gardens” and several other books.
