Right, an information display at the station, already marked for moving. Bottom, Office Manager Kym Smith, in mock anger, gently corrects someone on how long KCSO has been serving North Bend (it’s 40 years).
oving day hasn’t quite arrived at the North Bend Sheriff ’s substation, but the signs show that it is coming. Colored slips of paper marked “city” or “KCSO” are taped to tables and desks, and one corner of the front office is stacked with stuffed boxes, marked “Star Wars” or “Bath Sets” (leftovers from the department’s annual Operation Santa gift drive). The staff photos in the lobby aren’t coming down just yet, though, and more of the walls are being covered as Office Manager Kym Smith continues building her history display of the department’s 40 years as North Bend’s police force. That’s right, 40 years, Smith says, pointing to the Dec. 27, 1973, issue of the Valley Record, with a photo of Mayor Oscar Miller signing the agreement to contract with the King County Sheriff ’s Office for police services. The relationship built on that contract ends at midnight, March 7, when the Snoqualmie Police Department begins covering North Bend. Well, the formal relationship ends, but both Smith and Police Chief Mark Toner can foresee staying in touch with the community they’ve served for years. Smith and administrative assistant Erin Mitchell both live in North Bend and hope to continue working in the community. Sgt. Toner leaves after four and a-half years as the city’s police chief for a patrol position south of I-90. SEE TRANSITION, 2

Looking back on North Bend’s long arm of the law Kym Smith has a passion for the history of North Bend law enforcement. The office manager for the soon-to-close North Bend substation, she’s spent several years diving into the early minutes of the city, and the Valley Record’s archives, building a picture of the history of independent policing in this community, a legacy that ends, or changes, with the new contract putting police duties in the hands of a new Snoqualmie-North Bend department on March 7. Policing in North Bend dates back to the days of George H. Mead, the town’s first, cigarsmoking justice, and Frank E. Harte, the first chief of police, who took office in January 1912. Two years later, on Feb. 10, 1914, the police department was armed, with one Colt pistol. Cost: $17.25. In those early days, police chiefs were not just cops. They were dogcatchers. They certified citizens’ sewer systems. And they collected their own salaries from tickets and fees. Most of their work came from minor offenses like setting off fireworks illegally, or drinking in public. The city’s own police department ended in 1974. In that year, King County sheriff’s deputies took over, in the first contractual arrangement between a city and the county. Since then, a dozen King County sergeants have acted as the city’s police chiefs. They applied for the job, and the final choice was made by the city council and mayor. Sgt. Richard Phillips was the first deputy to serve as chief. One man, Dave Jolly, served on three different occasions. The substation, where Smith has assembled her archive for Thursday’s open house, has housed the local force since 2000. Prior to that, the police substation was the current conference room at North Bend’s City Hall. Since taking over North Bend’s policing duties in 1974, the sheriff’s office has investigated some interesting, high-profile and occasionally quirky cases:
Cops on bikes Roger Connelly, left, demonstrates how police were able to sneak around more using 10-speed bikes instead of patrol cars in 1974. The idea is that the bikes are quieter than the noisy Dodge police cruisers, so that deputies can surprise gas-siphoning thieves who work nights.
Keg crackdown Right, deputies confiscated two kegs of beer from a drinking party crackdown in April of 1976, the first haul from the party patrols that local police do every spring, through today.
Marijuana grow In June of 1974, deputies destroyed a 1,500-plant marijuana growing operation on Weyerhaeuser land near Snoqualmie, one of the biggest potgrows ever found in the Valley. An “unidentified reliable source” told deputies about the illegal farm.
Serial killer’s dumping ground North Bend was known to be used as a body dump site by serial killer Gary Ridgway and, just outside of the North Bend Sheriff’s station coverage area, by Ted Bundy. In 1976, the Record published a police sketch and warning by deputies seeking a killer named “Ted”—a long-haired Bundy—believed to be responsible for the vanished women.
The big crimes The sheriff’s office has handled its share Annie and David Chung of high-profile cases in North Bend. Among Chief Timeline the most sensational North Bend Police Department ceased at midnight on were the Oct. 28, 2004 murder-suicide of Annie December 31, 1973.

Familar faces at the North Bend Sheriff ’s substation, from left, Administrative Assistant Erin Mitchell, Office Manager Kym Smith and Police Chief Mark Toner. Each will move on to other duties after helping to close down the substation, but many of the deputies could remain in the area, since North Bend’s C-1 area will soon have two cars on patrol.
TRANSITION FROM 1 “But my e-mail and phone number are all the same, so people can still get hold of me,” he says, and many of the 10 North Bend deputies will still be around, patrolling C-1, the unincorporated areas of King County surrounding North Bend. “We’re only losing one position, that’s me,” Toner said. The department currently has two cars, patrolling D-1 in the city, and C-1 in unincorporated areas at all times. Both cars will remain in C-1 after Snoqualmie takes over. It’s a large area, Toner explained, and “we rely on our own,” so when a deputy calls for backup after March 7, it would have to come from one of the deputies patrolling east King County, from Carnation, or from the Sammamish substation. “So, instead of having to wait for somebody to come from a long ways away, we’ll just take the car that was in the city, and bounce ‘em out,” Toner said. Some of the changes are happening “behind the scenes,” like the handoff of 911 dispatch services now being coordinated. It should be smooth, and the public shouldn’t notice a difference, Toner said. What they will notice, though, is the loss of the substation. “This place is a hub of the community,” Toner said, attributing that primarily to Smith’s and Mitchell’s work with citizens. “How many calls do we get about ‘how do I do this?’” People came to the substation to register their bicycles, apply for concealed weapons permits, get information on how to improve their home security, get rid of expired or unwanted medicines, and get help from one of the assistance organizations that collaborated with the department — or sometimes the department itself.
Helping community There’s Operation Santa, which both Smith and Toner agree was “huge.” Smith is an admitted mother hen — “I’ve always been around law enforcement. I think it’s just vital to be that mother… make sure all my little chicks are all taken care of!” she says — and extremely proud of the department’s holiday support program. “Operation Santa started (in 1993) when an officer went into a residence after a call and realized that this family didn’t have a tree, they didn’t have anything,” she said. Then police chief Dave Germani had been involved with a similar program in a previous position, and thought it
would be good for North Bend, Smith said. So when officers found families in need at the holidays, they reported the details back to the office, where Smith worked part time. With the number of children, their ages and genders, Smith and office manager Judy Lawler would go out and buy the family gifts, “…then that officer would turn around and take back the toys,” she said. With the support of the community, the program grew quickly. Smith said many people wanted to do more than just buy toys. “We had lots of people come in and say, I don’t want to just donate, I want to adopt a family…. or I want to help with the needs, tell me what they need, not just want.” One year, she said, they helped get the heat working in a Fall City family’s trailer, and for many years they provided sleeping bags for children who didn’t have any other bedding. By the time the program ended, after the 2009 holidays, Smith said they had helped 344 families, 763 children and 364 adults. In early 2010, the department began meeting with the organizations on how to work together in providing services, a meeting that eventually led to the OneVoice collaboration. The department has also sponsored Safe and Sober Summers teen dances (1998-2000), free bicycle registration and bicycle safety programs since 1998, a bicycle rodeo from 2006 to 2009, Pizza with a Cop from 2003 to 2009, and offers free gun locks. People can get help from the Salvation Army there, use the department’s fingerprinting services and meet with an advocate for domestic violence victims. “This is what I’m talking about with the office,” Toner said. “They’re the conduit… People are reaching out, looking for a place to help,” and Smith and Mitchell help close that loop. Those connections are at the heart of law enforcement in North Bend, Toner says, and the main thing that Snoqualmie officers will have to develop when they start here. “My hope is that Snoqualmie rolls into town and is bored,” he said, meaning “we left a clean house, they don’t have to worry about a remodel right away, and they’ll have the time to build those relationships.” Community-based law enforcement is what North Bend needs, on all issues, not just the hot topics of illegal drugs and the city’s homeless population. Those are two different issues, by the way, Toner says. “Homelessness is still an issue,” he said, and there is some overlap with drug-users, but they aren’t the same.
“Homelessness has been an issue, since, ever. It’s always there,” Toner said. As for the other H-word, heroin, he says the Seattle area has a 150-year history with the drug, which rises to prominence every 10 years or so, declining in use as law enforcement attacks it, then increasing when they focus their attention on whatever drug supplants it, such as prescription drugs, most recently. “Heroin is the fallback drug,” Toner said, adding “People are going to say I’m naive, but I don’t see North Bend as any more significant, or any better, than almost any other city I’ve worked in.” He is frustrated by accusations that North Bend is a “heroin hamlet,” and says the citizens should play a role in ending that image. Referring to an e-mail message he received, asking him for a report of his day-to-day actions in attacking heroin, he said, “My response is what are you doing about it? How many times have you called it in? … What have you done to make your home more environmentally safe, or your town more environmentally safe?” It’s not defensiveness, he says, because “In reality, the onus is on the community to make the place safe. We’re simply one of the tools to get there.” The switch to Snoqualmie, he predicts, will be fine, although citizens will have to travel a little further for some of the services they used to get at the Boalch Avenue substation. Concealed weapons permits applications, available since 1974, are no longer offered at the substation, as of Feb. 20, and the prescription drug drop box closes Wednesday, Feb. 26. “We collected more than 300 pounds with that,” Smith says, recalling some of the people who used it to make their homes a little safer. “People are still using it, and it’s not just for people,” she said. “We’re also getting pet medications, over-the-counter medications…” “That was the community coming to us, too,” Toner said of the drop box. The Snoqualmie Valley Community Network approached the department in 2010, asking for help in preventing prescription drug abuse. “They explained the need and in less than two months, we had the box,” Toner said. Snoqualmie’s Police Department also has a drug drop box in the station at 34825 SE Douglas St., and there’s one at the Sammamish City Hall substation. North Bend’s substation, 1550 Boalch Ave. N.W., officially closes Thursday, following an open house event from 3 to 5 p.m. Many current and former deputies will be there, and the public is invited to come say goodbye.

This towel, above, and burp cloth, below, was found near the body of an infant, dubbed Kimball Doe, discovered last week in a wooded area near North Bend Way. Sheriff’s deputies are investigating the abandonment of the newborn, and seeking tips from the public.
Investigating the death of a newborn child near North Bend, the King County Sheriff ’s Office needs the public’s help in solving the case. Deputies have not yet released the sex of the baby, who was named Kimball Doe due to the proximity of the Kimball Creek bridge where the infant was foundWednesday afternoon, Feb. 12, in a wooded area a few feet from North Bend Way. Detectives said the tips they have received so far in the case have been checked and ruled out. Investigators released a photo of a towel and a burping pad that was found with the baby, hoping that someone will recognize it. A flyer with photos of items found with the child is also posted on the Snoqualmie city website at www. cityofsnoqualmie.org. If you have tips or information, call the King County Sheriff ’s Office at (206) 296-3311. You can remain anonymous and be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000 by calling Crime Stoppers at (800) 222-TIPS.

In Washington, there are other choices and options for the parents of newborns who are in a desperate situation. The Safety of Newborn Children Law allows for babies under 72 hours old to be left with qualified personnel at hospital emergency departments and fire stations during hours of operations, and federally designated rural health care clinics. Police will not be called for infants less than 72 hours old. The Snoqualmie Fire Station and the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital both accept newborns less than 72 hours old to save the lives of unwanted newborns in danger of abandonment and to help preserve the health and future of their mothers. Reach the Snoqualmie Fire Station, 37600 Snoqualmie Parkway, at (425) 888-1551. Contact the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital, 9575 Ethan Wade Way S.E., at (425) 831-2300

Future bond
Valley needs a new elementary school By all enrollment projections, the Snoqualmie Valley School District will need another elementary school by the 2016-2017 school year. Planning and design work for the building began last fall and has been paid for with school impact fees from the district’s capital facilities fund. In order to continue with the project, which would provide 29 more classrooms for our Valley’s growing number of children, the school board needs to commit to a bond to raise the estimated $35 million total project costs. Educating our youth is one of the best things we can do for our community. Elementary school is particularly important to future social and cognitive development. We learn our social skills and study habits during these years and disrupting that with overpopulated schools is not fair to the future of our community’s youth. If a bond passes it will provide our youngest students with the state recommended 17:1 class size ratio they need during this impressionable age. Large class sizes dramatically affect communication between teachers and students and creates opportunities for students to fall behind. It is very difficult for students to rebound and succeed in the classroom once they develop social and learning challenges in elementary school. While the hard working parents of our community are busy during the day, children deserve above adequate classrooms and education to set them up for their future. It has taken me till now, halfway through my higher education at Western Washington University that I truly understand the role education has had on my life. The degree I will earn is much more than something to put on my resume. My schooling has provided me with the tools and knowledge in order to enjoy a meaningful and fulfilling life. The lessons I learned in elementary school have helped me navigate this crazy world we live in, and I would hate for our community’s youth to get left behind and miss out on this. I hope the school board members and voters of the Snoqualmie Valley will take this chance to improve the lives of elementary school kids and our community by voting for a new elementary school.

Reichert was right to lift debt ceiling Kudos to Congressman Dave Reichert for voting for the lifting of the debt ceiling, so that the United States can pay the bill for the spending the United States Congress has authorized. The debt ceiling is a law from the last century from when the United States was a small nation, not the superpower industrial and financial powerhouse of the world. If we don’t pay our bills and default on the debt we incur, we would collapse the world economy. Thank goodness Congressman Reichert listened to the adults in his party and voted to lift the ceiling. It is the responsible thing to do, and we should acknowledge his bravery in standing against the Tea Party, which would burn down the United States’ and the world’s economy in order to get their way.

Concerns over neighborhood I’d like to thank the Record and staff reporter Carol Ladwig for taking notice of our concerns about the two new proposed developments (Segale and John Day) impacting our neighborhood and the greater North Bend community. I believe there are significant traffic and pedestrian safety concerns, loss of one of the best kayaker take-out/put-in, environmental impacts. Not to mention the city planners not considering the combined impacts of these two developments. Please continue to investigate and report on these two projects. Rich Formisano North Bend

Letters to the Editor
Kirk Harris, Chair, Snoqualmie Valley Citizens for Schools
Council and staff weighed in on the potential negatives of a state bill exempting tribal property from tax during the committee-of-the-whole discussions on February 10 and 24. Passed by the house and now before a state senate committee, House Bill 1287 would free property owned by Indian tribes, used for economic development, from property taxes. HB 1287 defines economic development as an essential government service that would be exempt from tax. If passed, it would take effect on January 1, 2015, and would expire in 2022. Washington’s constitution exempts property owned by federal, state or local governments from property tax. State law also frees all property belonging to tribes from state taxation if the property is used for essential governmental services, such as administration, fire, police, or health. Federal law prohibits state taxation of tribes on reservation land. Tribal property that is leased out and exclusively used for economic development comes under a payment in lieu of tax, or PILT, which would be determined through negotiation with the county. However, the city sees a big loophole there.
One clause of the bill allows one local taxing district to seek amends for the loss of property taxes—fire districts may negotiate with the tribe for their City’s objection services. Larson testified against HB Larson calls HB 1287 “probably the worst piece of public 1287 before the legislature. He policy I’ve ever seen or read. plans on going to Olympia again to oppose it.

hurdles in the Senate.” Magendanz echoed Rodne. “The staff briefing we received certainly indicated at the time that the analysis from the city administrator might have been missing an important aspect of the PILT that would increase overall revenue for the city of Snoqualmie,” he told the Record in an e-mail. Mark Mullet, fifth district state Senator for the Valley, told the Record he is against the bill. Sherry Appleton, the state representative for the 23rd District, based in Poulsbo, defended the bill, which she introduced several years ago. Appleton is among seven sponsors of the HB 1287. “The whole basis for the bill is parity,” she told the Record. Appleton pointed to local governments and universities that own economically active property, such as golf courses and hotels, on publicly owned land. But tribes, she said, don’t get the same breaks. “This is a good piece of legislation. We’re addressing parity, sovereignty and economic development. “Nobody wanted taxpayers to foot the bill,” said Appleton. “We’re working long and hard to make the bill as acceptable as it can be.” “People don’t realize how much money tribes put into the state economy, about $3 billion a year,” Appleton said. “Think about the employment the tribes do.” In her home district, the Suquamish tribe is the largest employer. “Thousands of non-natives are employed by tribes. Every one of them buys groceries, fills up with gas. That money does come back to the community.”

Real food for everybody
In Brief
Improve finances at Lunch and Learn
Rose Mitra takes down to earth approach at Snoqualmie’s Ridge Cafe and Deli Making real food, and making sure people who need it, get it, is a passion for Rose Mitra, owner of Rose Ridge Cafe and Deli on Snoqualmie Ridge. Mitra purchased the former Spicoli Sub Shop in June of 2011. “My goal is to serve people ‘real food’,” says Mitra. “My goal is to make you feel at home.” She explained where the cafe’s name came from. “With help from the locals, we came up with the name Rose Ridge Café & Deli,” Mitra said. “I wanted the Rose to be a play on words,” so the rose in the name is the dot in the I of “Ridge.” “I wanted to do more than just subs, due to my culinary background,” she said. “I love doing breakfast. It gives me so much pleasure when I feed people their first meal of the day.” She found it hard to get people to try a “sub shop” for breakfast, so Rose Ridge Cafe & Deli was born on January 1 of last year. Mitra serves breakfast and lunch, and she’s very happy with her offerings, which include hot entrees Monday through Friday, fresh salads, gluten-free breads, homemade goods and sweets. Her biggest seller is a breakfast sandwich served with fresh home fries. “I sell these to several coffee stands, so when I am not serving breakfast, you can still get them,” says Mitra. “Some of the locals have a nickname for these sandwiches. They call them the ‘SOBS’, Simply Outrageous Breakfast Sandwiches.”

Farmers, apply for farm pad help Agricultural landowners or operators who work in the Snoqualmie Valley Agriculture Production District can reduce their risk of loss from flooding by building a farm pad or elevated structure, where livestock and farm equipment can be placed during floods. Over the last several years, the Flood District has provided Snoqualmie Valley farmers with technical assistance for 26 farm pads, which will help to reduce flood impacts to farmers and livestock. To download an application, go to www.kingcounty.gov/ flood or call (206) 477-4815.
For the past three years, Mitra helped provide holiday meals to the homeless, prepping, cooking and delivering most of the food served at the North Bend Community Church’s homeless shelter Thanksgiving dinner last November. The shelter has been open one year. Mitra worked with Snoqualmie Valley Winter Shelter staff member Mary Small to make the meal happen. “For the past two years, I have put on a Thanksgiving dinner at the restaurant for all to enjoy,” Mitra told the Record in an e-mail. “I tried to get the word out to the homeless, but after the second year, was told the Ridge was too far for them to travel. So I packaged up about 20 full dinners and went around to where the homeless hung out and gave them a free dinner.” The first year, she got eight diners. The second, nine. Small suggested she team up with the shelter, “and the rest is history. “I loved seeing all the hard work that went into making the food, appreciated,” she wrote. She has donated food for the local art walk, senior center Christmas fair, local churches, children’s fundraisers. “The community has given me support,” Mitra stated. “The least I can do is give back.” Rose Ridge Cafe and Deli is located at 7823 Center Boulevard Southeast, Snoqualmie, in the former space of the Spicoli Deli. Hours are 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Friday and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 pm. Sunday. Call the cafe at (425) 888-7827.

Just because you have macular degeneration (or other vision-limiting conditions) doesn’t always mean you must give up driving or reading. A Seattle optometrist, Dr. Ross Cusic, is using miniaturized binoculars or telescopes to help people who have lost vision from macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy or other eye conditions. “Our job is to figure out everything and anything possible to keep a person functioning,” says Dr. Cusic. “Whether it’s driving, reading, TV, seeing faces, check writing, bingo or bridge. We work with whatever is on the person’s ‘wish list.’”
Patient Driving with Bioptic Telescopic Glasses With interest-free payment options this technology is now more affordable than ever. “Definitely worth the $2150 cost. I should have come sooner,” said Dr. Cusic’s patient. For more information and a FREE telephone consultation,

‘Orphan Train’ author visits North bend
Seed-saving and gardening event is Saturday
“Orphan Train” novel author Christina Baker Kline will give a book talk and signing, 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 28, at Valley Center Stage, 119 W North Bend Way. This free program is sponsored by King County Library System, Valley Center Stage and the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Society. Books will be available for sale and a book signing will follow the program. Between 1854 and 1929, so-called orphan trains ran regularly from the cities of the East Coast to the farmlands of the Midwest, carrying thousands of abandoned children whose fates would be determined by pure luck. Would they be adopted by kind and loving families, or would they face a childhood and adolescence of hard labor and servitude?
Gardeners and small farmers will find more than seeds this year at the Snoqualmie Valley Seed Exchange and Garden Fair. This fourth annual exchange will run from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, March 1 at the Sno-Valley Senior Center, 4610 Stephens Ave., Carnation. Collect new seeds, talk to other gardeners and farmers, and attend workshops to learn more about seed saving and cultivation. Learn more at www.snoqualmievalleyseedexchange.org.

In partnership with the Snoqualmie Commerce, the Valley Chamber of Commerce Valley Record will publish the 2014 Snoqualmie Valley Business Directory & Community Guide. This annual guide will feature useful local business listings and information on where to shop locally. It will also spotlight what to see and do in the Valley, along with great ideas for community activities and events,
health insurance (look for more information), immigration reform (much needed), legalizing recreational marijuana (“Why are we telling our kids it’s OK to smoke pot when we’re trying to tell them it’s not OK to smoke cigarettes?”), and minimum wage legislation in the Senate (doesn’t have enough support to pass the House). Then, from three different sources, he was asked about flood insurance reform. A recent vote in Congress will delay implementation of some elements of the BiggertWaters Act, he said, “but it’s more of a pause button.” Chamber CEO Nate Perea, North Bend Mayor Ken Hearing, and insurance agent Angela Donaldson all asked for Reichert’s comments on the bill, and Donaldson asked for a further delay in implementation, saying neither agencies nor home-owners had enough time or money to address the changes that start when parts of the bill take effect Oct. 1, particularly since they are all working from old, potentially outdated floodplain maps. “If the floodplain management part of it had time to catch up and implement the digital maps,” Donaldson said, “…if we had the time to put that information into a system, then we’re all winners, because we save lives and we save property values.” Biggert-Waters, the 2012 bill to make the national flood insurance program more self-sustaining, will drive flood insurance premiums up in the Valley, in some cases by thousands. The main effect is a four-year phased increase in flood insurance premium for primary homes, but the full increase in the next year for other properties. Other aspects of the reform include the need for some properties to get elevation certificates, which may call for other expensive flood-proofing measures on a property before it can qualify for the insurance. Reichert listened attentively, and assured the group that their concerns were not new information to him. He said there were several entities involved in implementing the bill, which may have led to some complications and citizens’ frustrations with the process to date. He also said the entities were still working together on solutions to the issues people raised.

State title for Cedarcrest grappler Ely Malametz Cedarcrest wrestler Ely Malametz holds a state title in wrestling. Wrestling in the 2A 160pound class at Tacoma’s Mat Classic, the senior pinned Zach Braun of W.F. West in four minutes, 41 seconds in the first round, then beat Colville’s Ryley Smith on points, 2-0. He won a 6-2 decision over Sumner’s Jed Schliesman, and took down Elijah Camacho of River Ridge in a 9-1 decision to take gold. Malametz was ranked fourth in the state at the 138-pound class last season. Fellow Red Wolf and junior Bailey McBride, at 113, took fourth. He fell to Grandview’s Fidel Medina by a point, 9-8, in the first round, then battled his way up the loser’s bracket, beating Tumwater’s Logan Greenwell, 19-7, East Valley’s Randall McDonald, 3-2, and Burlington’s Hugo Diaz, 503, before falling to Ellensburg’s Hunter Bair, 2-1.

he van was packed up and the wrestlers were assembled for the trip to Tacoma when squeals from the stadium interrupted departure. A makeshift parade of parents, siblings and kids from Ryley Absher’s mom’s preschool, Imagination Station, surprised the Mount Si wrestling delegation before they left for state. Mount Si wrestling has consistently sent groups to the Mat Classic at Tacoma over the years. This season, the Wildcats sent one regional champ, Eli Clure, fellow senior Abscher, and a sophomore, Andrew Harris, with senior Tanner Stahl accompanying as an alternate. “I don’t know what to expect,” said Harris, Mount Si’s heavyweight, on his first trip to the dome. “Just try my hardest.” “It’s definitely intimidating,” said Clure, who went as an alternate last year. Absher, too, went as alternate twice. SEE STATE, 12

Mount Si’s Jenn Rogers soars through her floor routine for the benefit of pupils at Mount Si Gymnastics Academy, in her final practice before state. Rogers led the team in scoring at the Tacoma Dome, improving on last year’s scores.
Moments after practicing her floor routine, Jenn Rogers did it again, for a special audience—the much younger athletes at Mount Si Gymnastics Academy. “They wanted to watch, so the kids can see my energy,” said the junior, who has worked here for the past two years, coaching 6- and 7-year-olds. “It’s awesome to be able to pass my passion on to the little kids,” Rogers says. They in turn watch her at high school meets. Rogers was giving her routine the final go-over before heading to the Tacoma Dome Exhibition Hall last weekend for state gymnastics finals. Mount Si’s strongest individual competitor, Rogers is far beyond where she was as a sophomore last season. Mount Si’s squad, indeed, is far beyond where they were in 2013, with all returners improving their scores. Mount Si finished third as team by score, behind winner Kamiakin and Enumclaw. On vault, junior state returner Hailey Johnson finished 10th with a 9.1. Rogers was 25th. SEE GYMNASTS, 12
“When you walk in, and see all the mats, all the wrestlers, you’re, ‘Whoa!’” Clure said. “It gets to you in the first 10 minutes. Then you get practicing, rolling around, it’s just another tournament.” Clure has seen plenty of those. He won the Best of the West tournament in Pasco, took second in two others in his class, and dominated at regionals. Clure’s approach is “to go out there, wrestle hard—wrestle my style. I can’t be pushed around. Be aggressive.... Most of the time, it’s ‘That’s it, I have to hit it,” he said. Practicing hard, and with high morale, Clure finished fourth at state in his 120-pound weight class. He faced some tough early matches, beating David Ramos of Kennewick by pin, then facing and losing to Brahm Trujillo of Auburn. He battled his way through the bottom bracket to challenge Trujillo again. Absher’s goal was to get on the podium through focus and determination. “Everything my coach pushed me toward, that’s what I’m going to be pushing for,” he said. Wrestling at 145, Absher finished fifth, he beat Shadle Park wrestler Grover Escobar on points, then fell to Lakes wrestler Tino Nieves. He pinned Mount Spokane’s Christian Nibarger in 4:43 to take the final podium spot.
Clure and Absher have been wrestling since elementary school days. Both boys dyed their hair pink as a gesture to Eli’s mom Lisa, a breast cancer survivor. Harris won an 11-4 decision over Chief Sealth’s Daron Camacho, then fell to Meadowdale’s Ciaran Ball and lost a decision to Chance Stolz of Peninsula. Mount Si finished 24th as a team out of 53 teams. This year’s team will be remembered for their work ethic. Now in his fifth year helming the Mount Si program, Coach Tony Schlotfeldt worked with Harris, Stahl, Absher and Clure as far back as middle school. “I’ve got a close bond with them. They’ve done a lot of work,” he said. Absher took five of seven tournaments this season—“he’s right up there, he’s just in a stuffed region,” the coach said. Senior Stahl’s season was cut short this year by a hand injury. It was a tough break, especially since he had practiced hard in the off-season. Back in time for the postseason, his trip to state reflects his skill. With two more years to go, Harris has the most promise for the Wildcats. State was a great experience for him, said Schlotfeldt. Next year, in addition to Harris, look for Justin Edens, Gunnar Harrison and Cameron McLain, all juniors who had good seasons in a stacked region, to lead the team.

The Mount Si boys basketball team ended its season last Saturday, Feb. 15, on the road against Bainbridge Island, falling 62-47 to the Spartans. The Wildcats came into the match from a win over Liberty two days prior, but fell to a Bainbridge team that dominated on rebounds in the first round of the SeaKing Districts. The Wildcats ended their season with a 9-11 overall record. “Our varsity season ended sooner than we all thought it would, but the energy around that team and our program is exactly how we envisioned it from the the start of the season,” commented head coach Kyle Clearman on the team’s webpage, looking back on his first season. “‘Peak at the right time’ was a daily phrase that we really believed in and executed at the end of the year. We came a long way and went through some adversity, as every team does, and in the end, I just hope these guys learned as much from me as I did from them.” Mount Si graduates senior starters Jack Nelson, Tyler McCreadie and Beau Shain, but can look forward to some strong juniors and sophomores moving up, such as Parker Dumas, JoJo Hillel, Ryan Stewart, Colton Swain and Isaac Benedict, among others.

Freshmen Maddie McGavern and Riley Baltazar went as alternates. Brown and Castagno graduate this spring.

Mount Si chosen for ‘Essentially Ellington’, major jazz competition Mount Si High School’s Jazz Band achieved a long-held goal last week, when it was selected as a finalist in the 2014 Essentially Ellington Jazz Competition in New York. “We are pretty excited,” said band director Matt Wenman, in a phone call while the school is on winter break. Essentially Ellington is one of the most prestigious high school jazz events in the country. Mount Si has auditioned for several years, but only the top 15 bands are selected in this fierce competition to attend the three-day festival and competition. This year’s event is May 8 to 10 at the Frederick P. Rose Hall at Lincon Center, and will include workshops, and rehearsals, before performing in front of Wynton Marsalis and a panel of judges in a final competition. Two other Washington schools, Garfield and Roosevelt High Schools in Seattle, will also be attending.
For Two Rivers School students, amateur transmission brings a window on a wider world Two Rivers School in North Bend became a ham radio station for a day, Feb. 12 during the nationwide School Club Roundup event. Middle school teacher Joe Burgener, with assistance and equipment from parent volunteer Stephen Kangas, introduced students to the world of amateur radio, from the science of radio waves, to the regulations for amateur operators, to the hands-on work of hanging antennae, and finally, to the actual operation of the radio equipment. Students spoke with several operators in California and one at the North Pole during the day. This is the sixth year that Two Rivers has been a part of the roundup, promoted by the National Association for Amateur Radio. Learn more at www.arrl.org/schoolclub-roundup.
Another first for Mount Si Debate Mount Si High School’s speech and debate teams are having a stellar year, on the heels of last year’s successes which sent two students to national competition, where they placed both individually and as a team. This year’s club, competing in the Jan. 10 and 11 competition at the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, claimed three of the top four places after nearly 28 hours of competition. The team of juniors Ryan Hartman and Kevin Pusich took first, followed by seniors Duncan Deutsch and Christian Henriksen in third, and seniors Riley Dirks and Kevin McLaughlin in fourth. Mount Si now has a district-record three teams with multiple state competition bids, and is one of a handful of schools with more than one team qualifying for the WIAA State Tournament in March. Hartman and Pusich will travel to California in February to compete at Stanford University’s high school debate tournament. They have already qualified for the national Tournament of Champions in Kentucky this April. Last year, Hartman and his now-graduated brother Andrew, competed in the Tournament of Champions and finished seventh in the public forum debate category.
