Saving par 3? Council wants consultant to study golf course BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

No for sale sign is going up yet at the city of Kent’s par 3 golf course. Despite city staff recommendations to sell the property, the City

Council won’t make any decision about whether to try to sell the course to a developer for at least another six months. Instead, council members directed city staff on Tuesday night to seek proposals from golf manage-

ment companies about what they might do to turn the Riverbend Golf Complex into a moneymaker. City officials are trying to find a way to resolve the financially struggling complex, which also includes an 18-hole course,

driving range and pro shop. The council spent more than 90 minutes discussing the issue at its workshop before asking staff to find a consultant to study the golf complex and possibly keep the par 3 course.

“It’s not a secret I’m not a big fan of consultant contracts, I don’t like to spend money that way,” Council President Dana Ralph said at the workshop to Parks [ more COURSE page 4 ]

Kent firefighters ready to join big field in a difficult climb for others BY ROSS COYLE rcoyle@kentreporter.com

Come Sunday, Kent firefighters will join almost 1,800 firefighters from the U.S., Canada and overseas for the 23rd Scott Firefighter Stairclimb up the Seattle Columbia Center. They’ll throw on all their 70 pounds of bunker gear and an oxygen tank and race to see who can climb 70 floors the fastest. That’s 1,311 steps, a swift vertical elevation gain of 788 feet.

Last year’s winner, 31-year-old Andrew Drobeck of Missoula (Mont.) City Fire, conquered the climb and the overall field in 10 minutes, 48 seconds. Like a pink ribbon marathon, the stairclimb is a friendly competition that combines a firefighters “race” with the chance to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. The Kent Fire Department plans to send 13 firefighters to the climb from [ more CLIMB page 4 ]

Sister Janet Benish, who won state and local awards for her volunteer work in Kent, has died. Benish, 92, died Feb. 13 at the Talbot Center in Renton after living the previous 19 years at the Harrison House in Kent. A memorial mass is set for 10 a.m. Friday, March 21 in the St. Anthony Chapel at Holy Spirit Catholic Church, 304 Third Ave. S., in Kent. Benish won the Governor’s Outstanding Volunteer Service award in 2008. She crocheted hats and scarves for the homeless for decades. She helped with numerous projects at the Kent Chamber of Commerce, the Kent Downtown Partnership and the Pediatric Interim Care Center (PICC) in Kent, where she cuddled drug-exposed babies. “Sister Benish is an angel in our eyes,” said Barbara Drennen, executive director at PICC, in a 2008 Kent Reporter article. “When she comes down to hold the babies, everyone goes out of their way to give her babies to hold. She’s very special to

said Robin Knudson, program coordinator at RSVP, in an 2008 article. “She has a quiet, selfless nature yet she has made an irreplaceable impact in the community. She truly has a servant’s heart.” Benish was born May 20, 1921, in Denver. She was the eldest of four children. She wrote a book of poetry, “Angels’ Advocate,” with her sister, Maggi Nolan, and had poems published in various publications throughout the years, according to her obituary posted on the Kent Reporter website.

The Kent School District had 420 homeless students in the 2012-13 school year. The latest numbers were released Feb. 27 by the state Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction. The state had 30,609 students counted as homeless, an 11.8 percent increase from 2011-12. Kent’s homeless numbers included 100 high school students, 105 in middle school and 215 in elementary school. Other numbers for neighboring Kent districts include Highline 917, Renton 432, Tukwila 305, Federal Way 297 and Auburn 180 homeless students. Seattle had 2,370 homeless students. The federal McKinney-Vento Act ensures that homeless children have access to “the same free, appropriate public education, including a public preschool education, as provided to other children and youths.” McKinney-Vento defines a student as homeless if he or she lacks a fixed, regular, and adequate nighttime residence. The student is classified as homeless if he or she lives in: • Emergency or transitional shelters • Motels, hotels, trailer parks or camping grounds • Shared housing due to loss of housing or economic hardship • Hospitals secondary to abandonment or awaiting foster care placement • Cars, parks, public spaces, abandoned buildings, substandard housing or similar situations • Public or private places not ordinarily used as sleeping accommodations for human beings Districts are required to annually report their homeless student numbers based on the McKinney-Vento definition. The law requires that homeless students be given the same access to education as other students and cannot be separated from other students. Where feasible, the student can remain in the district he or she was in before becoming homeless and is provided transportation to and from school.

...obituaries Dorothy Mae Neff Dorothy Neff passed away peacefully in the loving arms of family on February 26, 2014 at her home in Kent, WA. She was born November 17, 1916 in Englevale, ND to William Ralph and Grace Humphrey. She grew up on the family farm until completing High School, when they moved to the Seattle area. A farmer’s wife, she married Harris Cavett and they ran a dairy farm until his sudden passing. She then married Joe Neff and they continued to run the farm until his retirement in 1999. Neff Farms was always a hub of activity, and all who visited experienced Joe and Dorothy’s legendary hospitality, only leaving after a good drink, and full of homemade salami or pie. In retirement at George, WA, Dorothy’s strength and ability to always live for the present and future carried her into her 90’s, when no illness or accident however serious, could keep her down for very long. She enjoyed semi-regular trips to the casino to play the slot machines, and until her final days, enjoyed her weekly card games, bingo, meals, and other activities with friends at Farrington Court in Kent. She is survived by her daughters, Diane Walton of Parkland, Dolores Cavett of Arlington, Heidi Elliott (Bruce) of Kent, daughter-in-law Carol Cavett of Orting; brother Dean (Helen) of Fargo, N. Dakota; nine grandchildren and 13 greatgrandchildren. Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by her brothers, Fowler and Duane; sisters, Viola and Barbara; husbands Harris Cavett and Joe Neff; sons, Joey Neff, Gary Cavett; grandson, Jeff Walton and son in law Dave Walton. A memorial service will be held at Price-Helton Funeral Home in Auburn on Friday, March 7, at 11:00am. Remembrances can be made to the Swiss Sportsmen’s Club of Tacoma (c/o Swiss Kids Kamp) or Providence Hospice. Mom was humble, never complained and always put the needs of others before her own. She was considered a mentor and inspiration to so many friends and family, she will be deeply missed.

“The fixes that are out there are small. We would be glad to look at other options. But we are at our wit’s end in trying to come up with a solution. The problem is the complex, the solution is the par 3. The entire complex is not operating in the black, the only way we can see to fix it at this point is to sell the par 3.” Developers have told the city they are interested in the prime property along West Meeker Street and the Green River Trail to build a mixed-use project that could feature retail shops, public open spaces, a hotel, apartments and possibly condos if the city decides to sell its par 3 course that sits across the street from the 18-hole course.

So far the Kent Fire Department has raised more than $13,000 and will be accepting donations until the end of March. As firefighters make connections for fundraising they find other victims and survivors of cancer. After he registered for his first stairclimb three years ago, firefighter Art Weichbrodt discovered a classmate whose daughter had died from leukemia and another acquaintance whose son, Jackson Fitzgerald, was battling the disease. “The more you dig into it the more you find people,” Weichbrodt said. Some of the team’s honorees don’t even have explicitly leukemia or lymphoma, “but cancer is cancer,” Weichbrodt said. For Kent firefighters, leukemia hits close to home. Cancer has claimed the lives of two firefighters in the district, and two more are in remission from the disease. The firefighters train for the climb in several different

But often it comes back to just getting out and seeing how much vertical ground you can cover with the most weight in as short a time as possible. Those who have attempted the climb before say maintaining the physical endurance isn’t the most difficult part of the climb. “It’s mostly mental, and it’s hard to train for that,” said Capt.

knew what I’m getting myself into, but since I don’t, I’m just going to put my head down,” he said. The year between climbs gives firefighters a chance to recover from the aches and pains, but only just enough time to remember why they did it. “As miserable as you are in the stairwell,” Cox said, “the mental challenge, within five to 10 minutes you’re done you’re thinking I’ll do it again. Your body forgets so quickly the misery you just went through.” It’s a grueling climb, but firefighters say it’s worth it. “I think when you get back

another six months when we kind of know the likelihood is really slim if anyone is going to come forward to solve the budget problem?” City officials started public discussions in November 2012 about how to resolve revenue shortfalls at Riverbend. City staff held community meetings last year for ideas about what steps to take. Several members of the Committee to Save the Par 3 attended the Tuesday workshop as did representatives of youth golf groups that use the course. “This is something that we all take extremely seriously and we want to make sure we are doing the right thing for this community,” Ralph said about hiring a consultant. “It doesn’t quite accomplish the goal but it’s a step forward.”

to the motivation of being in the stairwell and it’s hot and uncomfortable and you look up and you see your honorees, that’s the motivation,” Weichbrodt said. Other firefighters, like Nate Strobel, carry lists of names. In Strobel’s case, it was a sweat-stained paper with the names of his 69 sponsors that he kept taped to his uniform. At every floor he pulled it off and read a name from the list. Ultimately, the motivation comes from knowing the difference that they can make in someone’s life. When Weichbrodt reached the end of the course last year, he found Jackson Fitzgerald waiting for him. The 4-year-old handed him a Batman sticker and a SpiderMan sticker. “He handed those to me because they were superhero stickers and he thought I was a superhero,” Weichbrodt said. Now, when the Fitzgeralds pass the Columbia Center, Jackson calls it “Art’s Building.” “That’s what makes this very personal,” Weichbrodt said.

Kent officers arrest daughter for spitting in mother’s face BY STEVE HUNTER

Police

shunter@kentreporter.com

Kent Police arrested a woman for investigation of fourth-degree assault after she reportedly spit in her mother’s face during a dispute. Officers responded at about 6:28 p.m. Feb. 23 to a house in the 600 block of Sixth Avenue South after the mother called 911, according to the police report. The daughter told police she was visiting with her four children at her mother’s house when they got into an argument after one of the children fell on a coffee table. The daughter then fled the house and sent a text message to her mother about the incident. “I am sorry, please don’t let them take me to jail,” the daughter wrote. “I wasn’t trying to spit on you, I was upset and spray just came out.” The mother, who has non-parental custody of all four of her daughter’s children, told officers her daughter tilted her head back and moved it forward as she spat. Police stopped the daughter in her car near the house shortly after the incident.

Malicious mischief Officers arrested a man for investigation of third-degree malicious mischief after he allegedly threw his girlfriend’s cellphone against a wall after she received a text message from an ex-boyfriend.

BLOTTER The boyfriend also threw an end table against a wall, putting a hole in the wall and breaking the table in the 6:41 a.m. Feb. 23 incident at an apartment in the 400 block of East Novack Lane, according to the police report. The woman told officers that a former boyfriend, who is in jail, sent a text message to her and that upset her boyfriend. He reportedly threw her cell phone against a wall, which broke the phone. The woman then became angry about the broken phone so she threw an end table at a TV. The boyfriend, who lives in Seattle, admitted he broke the woman’s phone because she was texting another man.

Drugs Police cited a man for failing to signal, improper use of a horn and for having no insurance at about 1:33 p.m. Feb. 24 in the 10200 block of Southeast 256th Street. Officers also tested the man for possible use of cocaine and marijuana, according to the police report. An officer saw a Ford Expedition driver honking a horn for no apparent reason, although there was a woman

walking westbound on the sidewalk. The driver drifted from one lane to another along 256th Street and didn’t signal. The officer pulled the vehicle over in the Kent-Meridian High School parking lot. Police noted that the driver had droopy eyelids and bloodshot eyes. The driver failed a couple of field sobriety tests. Police reportedly found a few small pieces of crack cocaine on the man. Officers obtained a search warrant to take a blood sample from the man to test for cocaine as well as marijuana, which the man admitted to using. Results of the toxicology test were not yet available.

Helicopter assists Kent Police in search for robbery suspect BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

A King County Sheriff ’s Office helicopter helped search on the East Hill in Kent for an alleged robbery suspect. Kent Police responded to a 911 call about an alleged robbery at about 12:49 a.m. Feb. 28 in the 24200 block of 117th Avenue Southeast, said Melanie Frazier, Kent Police spokeswoman, in an email. Guardian One, the Sheriff ’s Office helicopter, happened to be up in the air when the call came in so it assisted in the search. “The caller indicated that he was robbed by suspects who were armed with a rifle,” Frazier said. “He said they fled the area in a white Toyota Corolla. Kent Police officers searched the area with the help of Guardian One but were unable to locate the vehicle or suspects.” The man who claimed to be the victim later called in additional information to police that he was parked in a vehicle with his girlfriend and that three unknown suspects approached them. He said one had a rifle in hand but didn’t point it at him or make any threats. The man told officers he ran to a nearby residence to call 911. “The case is still under investigation, but it appears that there is likely more information that the (alleged) victim is failing to disclose,” Frazier said. “As the case reads right now it does not appear to be a robbery, but more so suspicious circumstances.”

Illegal camping Officers cited two men for investigation of illegal camping after finding them in homeless camps on city property Feb. 25 near the Bend of the River apartments in the 8700 block of South 259th Street. Officers responded to several reports of homeless people camping along the Green River, south of the apartments, according to the police report. Police found a large camp with multiple tarps and found a man inside. Officers told him he couldn’t camp on city property. Farther down the trail, officers found a second camp, about 8 feet in diameter and dug about 6 feet into the ground. The camp included a chair, clothing, food and propane tanks. Officers found a man at the camp who said he had lived there for about a month. An officer recognized the man from previous contacts for illegal camping. The man told police he stayed at the camp because he didn’t like homeless shelters.

The City Council is about to decide the fate of Riverbend’s par 3 course. If they do, it will be sold to developers. This gift of Mother Nature will be replaced with condos and apartment complexes. The tranquil sounds we hear and the fresh air we breathe will be replaced by noise from traffic jams and pollution from added housing complexes.

EDITOR’S NOTE

“Do you text and drive?”

Mark Klaas

?

Question of the week:

The message was succinct and appropriate. Save It Seattle. The messenger was Golden Tate, the man with soft hands and big-play ability for the Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks. Tate appeared last week at Auburn Riverside High School, surrounded by students, faculty and staff pumped up in 12th Man spirit and graced in blue and green. Tate was a special guest, a sports celebrity amplifying the cause for a corporate-backed mission – stop texting and driving. “So many things can go wrong … so don’t do it,” Tate urged teens packed inside the gymnasium for an afternoon school assembly on Feb. 27. “If I can get you some advice, don’t do it. If you don’t do it for yourself, do it for somebody else.” Tate’s visit was the grand prize for Auburn Riverside winning the second annual Verizon Wireless Save It Seattle contest. The company’s online-driven awareness campaign challenged students at seven South Puget Sound high schools to take a pledge against texting and driving. Auburn Riverside students made the commitment and cast the most pledges. The schools were Auburn, Kentridge, Kentwood, Emerald Ridge, Decatur and Todd Beamer high schools. Last year’s contest winner, Roosevelt High School, received a visit from Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson after collecting the most pledges. Last week it was Auburn Riverside’s turn. “It was pretty exciting,” said Levi Durr, a junior, who got the chance to rub shoulders and take a photo with Tate before the assembly. “He asked me how I was. For him to come here with the this message is important. I think it makes a difference.” For Tate, the appearance was a chance to give something back to the community.

health and financial security that they never had before. Last year Washington state continued to show leadership in the nation by voting to expand Medicaid and giving low-income people in our communities access to health care. After just five months, more than 38,000 newly eligible low-income people in King

County and approximately 3,800 in Kent have enrolled in Washington Apple Health (our state’s Medicaid program). That means more than 60 percent of Kent’s uninsured who were eligible for Medicaid are now covered. Beyond the numbers, Medicaid is changing people’s lives.

[ KLAAS from page 6 ] The message was clear. “You can do literally everything on a Smartphone. That’s a temptation in itself,” Tate said. “But when it comes to texting and driving, it can wait. … Even a simple message can end badly. … Those are things we can avoid.” A 2011 study finds nearly half of U.S. high school students aged 16 or older reported texting or emailing while driving in the past 30 days. Texting while driving was also found to be positively associated with other risky motor vehicle behaviors, says the American Academy of Pediatrics. Texting while driving has now replaced drunken driving as the No. 1 cause of teenage deaths on the road in the U.S., new research has found. The study, undertaken by the Cohen Children’s Medical Center in New York, found that more than 300,000 teens are injured and more than 3,000 die each year as a result of

sending text messages while behind the wheel. Tate warns teens to do the right thing when taking the wheel. “If it’s that important, pull over and text or pull over and make the call,” he said. “It’s easy to say, ‘No, I’m not going to text’ …. I know it’s tough, but it’s something everyone can work on.” Tate also hopes the Seahawks will work out a new contract when the free agency season officially begins Saturday. He was asked: Can Seattle save Tate? The four-year NFL wide receiver hopes so. The Seahawks face difficult roster decisions as the world champions wrestle with the salary cap. The team must decide whether to re-sign several young free agents, notably Tate, fellow wideout Doug Baldwin and defense lineman Michael Bennett. Tate is unsure about his future. He led the Seahawks with 64 receptions for 898 yards and five touchdowns in 2013. “I’m just enjoying be-

Individualized Learning

ing a world champion. I have tremendous faith that everything is going to work out regardless if it’s here or somewhere else,” Tate said in a pre-assembly news conference at Auburn Riverside. “I really can’t worry about it because I did my part, the tough part, performing on the field. “Hopefully I can call Seattle home for a few more years, but we will see,” Tate said. “I know Coach (Pete) Carroll has expressed that he would like to have me on the team, and I’ve expressed I’d like to stay on this team because I see this team winning for a long time. We’ll see. Only time will tell.” Free agency has never been too kind to a champion’s roster. The Baltimore Ravens lost eight starters after winning the 2013 Super Bowl. “The sad part about the Super Bowl is looking in that locker room (and knowing) it’s never going to be the same. Never,” Tate said. “You’re going to lose coaches, lose players. It’s just the game. It’s tough, but

it is what it is.” With negotiations looming, Tate has stayed busy in February. He recently joined teammates in Brazil to participate in a camp to teach children football fundamentals. He was honored in his hometown of Hendersonville, Tenn. When Verizon Wireless came calling, he gladly appeared in Auburn, spreading an important message. He basked in the glow, spent time high-fiving students, signing autographs and leading cheers. He handed out “Golden” Globes at the assembly, recognizing student and staff achievements. “This is important,” he said. “It’s a small way to give back.” Verizon Wireless officials hope to continue the awareness campaign next year. Elona Zadneprovoskyaka, a sophomore, came away impressed. “Having someone like him here makes you listen to what he has to say,” she said. “It most likely will have an effect on me.”

Once again, Kent travel agent Sally Goodgion has given back to those less fortunate in her community. This time it was to Kathy Pedrini, a Kent resident who received two tickets for a paid vacation to the Seattle Mariners’ spring training camp in Arizona from March 12-19. Goodgion acquired the tickets through her yearly auction of assorted Mariners memorabilia she holds to raise money to take someone without the economic ability to do so. The package Goodgion raised to send Pedrini and her mother cost $3,000. Pedrini could barely contain her enthusiasm when she found out that she was going on the trip. She gave almost everyone in the room a hug and started

and often have instability in their lives. Many people don’t even know they are eligible. That’s why Community Health Centers in Washington are calling on legislators to fund an outreach campaign when the Exchange marketing ends in March, to educate people that they can enroll in Medicaid at any time. Funding this campaign throughout 2014 will help Washington State achieve its high enrollment projections, creating state budget savings. HealthPoint and other health centers are also working with legislators to ensure that new Medicaid enrollees can choose their health plan when they enroll. Currently they are auto-assigned— they have no choice. If a patient is assigned to a plan that doesn’t contract with their current doctor, it creates more than just an inconvenience for someone with serious medical conditions. Changing plans also wastes valuable and already scarce resources for enrollees, providers, health plans and the Health Care Authority. Higher-income individuals

enrolling in coverage on the Exchange can choose a plan. Why not those enrolling in Medicaid? As we celebrate and work toward a day where all Washingtonians have access to affordable quality health care, we know that these newly achieved gains are fragile. Despite continued tight state budgets, we can’t turn our backs on this progress. We must push on to preserve critical health care safety net programs that are protecting lives and saving the state money, like Medicaid, Maternity Support Services and interpreter services. It is my hope that next fall a Kent Reporter headline will read, “Kent’s Uninsured Rate Dropped to Zero.” We can make that a reality with continued hard work.

www.kentreporter.com used consultants twice to find new superintendents. “They are specialized into knowing the market, knowing what’s out there and knowing the top candidates,� Boyce said about consulting firms. “Their reputation relies on bringing the top candidates to, in this case the city of Kent, for the two positions. At the end of the day, the mayor has the right to fill her staff and we want to make sure we get the right people for the right job.�

[ PILOTS from page 1 ] See, to Watson, Peterson and the other GRCC flight students in the professional pilot degree program, “reasonable distance� means something different than it does to an ordinary Joe. A “great office view,� says Watson, 26, a former Marine using the GI bill to put himself through college. Having the Auburn Airport and Galvin Flight Services, which handle the practical flight instruction, so close to the college has made it much easier for flight school students to get air time, whereas before they had to travel up to Boeing Field in Seattle for their classes. Instructor George Comollo said there is a growing need for pilots in the industries, using Boeing Aerospace, which produces one 787 Dreamliner every three days to meet a demand for more than 1,000

Both jobs are filled by interim hires. Tom Brubaker has served as interim CAO since John Hodgson retired in May. Paula Barry is the interim finance director after Bob Nachlinger retired in January. The $60,000 will come out of the city’s general fund. Barry said the money exists because of savings from vacant positions. Thomas said the money to hire a consultant could have been included in the city budget for 2014

because Hodgson left last spring and Nachlinger told the council last fall he would be retiring. “That would have been up to you,� Cooke said. “I presented my budget before that time occurred. Quite honestly, I don’t think any of us were even thinking about it at that time. We were looking at all of the other budget issues.� Lorraine Patterson, city human resources director, told the council she received only 22 applications from advertis-

ing the finance director position locally and none of them had experience as a finance director in a comparable city. Karras will contact people already employed about coming to Kent, Patterson said. She added the company has found new hires for the governor’s office, King County, Sound Transit and the Seattle mayor’s office. The pay range for a new CAO in Kent is $121,200 to $169,668 per year in salary, according to the city of Kent 2014 pay rate list. The

planes, as an example. “If you look at the demographics of the pilots, as George says, they’re getting older,� said Josh Clearman, dean of Green River technical programs. According to Clearman, airline companies realize that a large manpower gap is coming, as many pilots approaching retirement ages find their stock portfolios recovering. “As a wave swells, you can feel it building, and then there’s that break point, so we feel like we’re somewhere on the point of that wave, closer to the top than the bottom,� Clearman said. Pilots aren’t limited to working for passenger services. One student may train on fixed-wing craft to work for a major airline, whereas another may train on helicopters or commercial transport planes. Peterson, who hopes to work in Alaska, is training to be a bush pilot. GRCC offers training

for the three different pilot licenses – private, commercial, and air transport – and side certifications for multi engine, instructor, and instrument ratings. And according to Comollo, the courses can’t be taken lightly. New students should expect to work their tails off. “You really need to come in and realize that you’re jumping such a high level of steps in knowledge for every lesson you take,� said Comollo. “You’re really preparing for a world that is fairly quick. It’s not like you have a slow educational process to get you to that level of knowledge and understanding.� Comollo said that the most successful pilots have a strong logical mindset that can process the methodical steps that flight schools require. One of the hardest classes, Peterson and Watson agree, is instrument reading, and they don’t expect it to get easier. Each class

gets more in depth, says Peterson. For private license training, students only learn what each instrument does, but for other classes, such as the instruments course, they have to learn precisely how the instrument functions on a mechanical and physical level. While flying can be an exciting career, prospective pilots shouldn’t jump into flying for the money. According to several sources, pilots may expect to make less than $40,000 a year in their first years of flying, whereas the average cost of training runs in excess of $80,000. The ratio of wages to the program’s high costs has turned many potential students away, and has contributed to the workforce shortage projected in the coming years. Still, for the chance to have an office with a window at 35,000 feet, the risks might be worth the rewards.

highest but it is competitive. That should not be a problem. Actually, the state pays less than us and so if you are able to recruit from the state, we look really good compared to the state.� It will take about 12 weeks for Karras to find candidates for the jobs, Patterson said.

Fly like an eagle: Deon Thomas leaps to land a shot during the Kentridge Chargers’ regional playoff game against Arlington last Friday. ROSS COYLE,

KENTWOOD ADVANCES TO HARDWOOD CLASSIC The Kentwood girls basketball team won its 4A regional playoff game against Chiawana 65-55 Saturday, and advanced to compete in the first round of the eight-team Hardwood classic on Thursday against Lynnwood at the Tacoma Dome.

Kent Reporter

Kentridge edges Arlington, secures spot in Hardwood Classic BY ROSS COYLE rcoyle@kentreporter.com

No. 4 Kentridge earned a ticket to this week’s elite eight Class 4A state tournament after rallying to defeat No. 7 Arlington 65-61 in a regional boys basketball game last Friday at Kent-Meridian High School. Keasean Kelly had 17 points, Jawan Stepney scored 14 points and Hussayn Ford added 10 points for the Chargers (25-1). Brady Brummel led Arlington (20-4) with 23 points. After Brummel’s 3-pointer with 40 seconds left in the

game, Ford hit the go-ahead shot with 23 seconds left. Kentridge trailed by six heading into the final period but responded. The tension down the stretch could be cut with a knife by the end of the fourth quarter when a two-point free throw attempt gave Arlington the chance to tie the game and send it into overtime. “My heart almost stopped every time something happened,” Kelly said. “It was just an incredible pace,” said Chargers coach Dave Jameson. “Even if we had lost that game, that was a playoff game.”

“That’s what you expect coming into one of these games,” said Kent resident Mike Simmons, who attended the game to root for Kentridge. “That’s playoff basketball.” Students flooded the court when the clock hit zero to celebrate with the team, hoisting players into the air and grabbing photos with the victors. The Chargers secured a second seed in the Hardwood Classic, and played their first around against Garfield Thursday. The score was not available at press time.

Kent man prepares for the chance to become a ‘Ninja Warrior’ Motivational speaker trains for the chance to compete on nationally televised obstacle course Hoan Do has spent the last four years of his life motivating high school and college students around the country to make more of themselves, and now he’s putting his beliefs to the test as he prepares for one of the biggest challenges of his life. Do is auditioning for the sixth season on G4TV of “American Ninja Warrior”, an intense obstacle course that challenges the contestant’s strength, agility and mental fortitude. When contestants aren’t running up walls, they’re leaping across pits using circular rings or navigating a 20-foot lateral peg wall. If he’s selected, competing on the show is just one more entry in Do’s list of accomplishments. Do holds a unique accolade as one of the youngest motivational speakers in the United States. He got into speaking at the end of his time studying at Pepperdine University, and now travels throughout the country speaking to high schoolers and college students, providing tips for ways they can succeed in college and high school by changing their mentality. His work has taken him around the nation to speak in locations as far away as Pennsylvania or as close as Seattle University. Running a speaking business out of the house demands a great degree of coordination and discipline, but also requires motivation and dedication to an idea. All of these skills have helped Do as he trains for the show.

Do, a Federal Way native and Kent resident, decided to audition for the show after his crossfit trainer tagged him in a photo with the Twitter hashtag american ninja warrior. “In that moment I thought, ‘Why not,’ ” he said. Training to become a Ninja Warrior and training at a crossfit gym are two different tasks, which Do has taken to with a certain zeal. Do’s athletic background as a wrestler and triathlete have kept him in shape but the tasks on the show require different skills. To compensate for this, Do has incorporated a training program into his daily routine, including 6 a.m. workouts and visiting two gyms. In the mornings, he visits Ronin Training Center to prepare for the obstacles on the course. Many of the Ninja Warrior obstacles are oriented around the urban sport Parkour, or free running. Among its other obstacles, the gym features a wall climb with one-inch wood slats to grip and a salmon ladder where the user must throw a bar up a notched wall. Gym owner Travis Ramsey, a former contestant, built the gym around his experiences on the show. “I’ve got no doubt that if he decides he wants to be the first person to finish it, he’ll be the first person to finish it,” Ramsey said. In the evenings, Do attends crossfit training at Renton CrossFit, where he works on his overall strength and fitness

Ninja in training: Kent resident Hoan Do is training for the “American Ninja Warrior” obstacle course, which incorporates strength and agility to find the most fit competitors in the United States. ROSS COYLE, Kent Reporter through lifting and calisthenics. The grand prize for completing all four Ninja Warrior courses is $500,000 in cash. Do, ever the organized economist, plans to divide it up among a number of investments and personal expenditures. Do isn’t sure when he’ll hear back from the “American Ninja Warrior” producers to see if he’s been selected for a slot. Many of his friends and fans believe that with his motivation and athletic background, he would be a shoo in as a competitor.

MEMBERS OF THE STATE SENATE recently honored Tara Radford and soccer players from Kentwood and Kentridge high schools for their work on “Kicks for a Cure.� The program raises money for breastcancer screenings to support women’s health. Sen. Joe Fain, R-Auburn, sponsored

Senate Resolution 8691, which highlighted the Kentwood girls soccer team’s work in raising more than $21,000 to provide breast-cancer screenings for low-income women through MultiCare Covington’s “Women Get It� program. Since Tara Radford, wife of Kentwood soccer coach Aaron Radford, launched the

effort in 2009, the team has played five fundraising matches along with other community events to raise funds and awareness. “This is a great example of turning tragedy into opportunity,� Fain said. COURTESY PHOTO, Kathy Strauss, Washington State Legislative Support Services

The beginning of March is a good time to plant seeds of cool season crops like peas, sweet peas and lettuce. It is also time to buy hellebores in glorious bloom and prune roses and ornamental grasses if you have not done so already. Pruning early flowering shrubs such as forsythia, flowering plum and cherry can produce the benefit of fresh flowers for the house. Just add the cut stems from the budded branches to a vase of warm water and watch how easy it is to fool Mother Nature.

Q. Why when I plant a row of peas – up to 50 seeds, I only get four of five that actually sprout? I even buy fresh pea seeds and don’t use the left over seeds from last year like my penny-pinching father. Yet all his peas sprout and we plant at the same time and live nearby. I am very frustrated.

Try this: Scatter the pea seeds onto a damp dish cloth and wrap it up. Leave the peas indoors for a few days in the damp cloth and then plant outdoors after they have sprouted. Pre-sprouting peas will keep them from rotting in cold soil. Then cover the area with light netting to keep out the crows and place a mouse trap in the row under a bucket or pot slightly propped to keep out pets but allow mice inside. Wait until mid-March to plant your peas and you can expect better results.

Q. I love sweet peas and want to grow my own cut flowers this summer. I have an area that gets only half a day of sun. Can I still grow sweet peas? G. Email A. Yes, sweet peas will sprout and bloom with 4 to 5 hours of sunshine but they still need to have

Add the pea seeds. Once they sprout add another layer of soil then more manure. By putting manure in the bottom of a trench the seedlings will have warmth and nutrients right when they need it. Once you harvest a few stems of sweet pea blooms keep on cutting. Sweet peas continue blooming as long as you keep harvesting the flowers.

of the few spring flowering bulbs that will thrive in damp soil or even in meadows that get flooded by spring rains. This makes it a great early spring bloomer for damp sites where other bulbs would rot.

You can enjoy this bulb in your garden now even if you didn’t plant in the fall.
