City to purchase land from county to build stormwater pond SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
The Metropolitan King County Council voted at its Monday meeting to authorize the sale of property along Northeast Union Hill Road to the
City of Redmond. It was an 8-0 vote with one member — Dave Upthegrove — absent from the meeting. A public hearing was also offered at the meeting, but there were no volunteers to provide input.
The piece of land is 1.41 acres and located at 19101 N.E. Union Hill Rd. just outside of the city. It will be used for a stormwater pond, which will take up about 1.2 acres of the land, said Eric Dawson, construc-
tion project manager for the city. Jon Spangler, a construction division manager for the City of Redmond, said the pond is part of the city’s regional plan for Southeast Redmond. The pond

Redmond police have received 22 calls related to mail thefts this month, and on Tuesday officers arrested a 29-year-old woman who was seen rummaging through mailboxes at an apartment complex. At approximately 3:45 a.m., a resident of the complex in the 9300 block of Avondale Road called the Redmond Police Department (RPD) and said
of the land, he said there is also the cost of the pond’s construction, which is estimated to be about $1.55 million. To help fund the pond’s construction, the city [ more LAND page 7 ]
from his window, he witnessed the suspect opening mailboxes at the complex, according to Janessa Rosick, public information coordinator for the RPD. The resident added that the suspect was sitting on a bicycle and carrying two backpacks and a fannypack. When officers arrived on the scene, they arrested the woman without incident and the resident confirmed that she was the person he saw opening the mailboxes. She was booked into RPD and transported to the King County Jail. Rosick said officers found mail in the suspect’s bags and that out of 10 unsecured mailboxes in that area of the complex, eight [ more MAIL page 2]
Windstorm topples six-story scaffolding into downtown street No one injured, minimal damage SAMANTHA PAK AND ANDY NYSTROM spak@redmond-reporter.com, anystrom@redmond-reporter.com
When the windstorm tore through Redmond on the evening of Dec. 11, scaffolding fell in the 8300 block of 160th Avenue Northeast in downtown Redmond. The scaffolding was from a construction site and struck the canopy of the LionsGate North
Apartments located across the street from the site, said Janessa Rosick, public information coordinator for the Redmond Police Department (RPD). Part of 160th Avenue Northeast between Northeast 83rd Street and Northeast 85th Street was already closed that night because the construction company, Compass General Construction of Kirkland, was scheduled to remove a crane last Friday morning.
NO INJURIES, MINIMAL DAMAGE
There were no injuries, but six apartment units at LionsGate
were evacuated after they were determined to be unsafe by the RPD, as well as the Redmond Fire Department (RFD) and City of Redmond Public Works Department — who all responded to the incident — Rosick said. There were seven people living in the six single-family units. “Thankfully, no injuries,” Rosick said. She said the residents were moved to the Hyatt House Seattle/Redmond for the night and Compass covered the cost. [ more STORM page 7 ]

of them were empty. However, officers didn’t note if all the mail was from the complex and they were going to check with day-shift officers “to see if anything connects” with the other mail-theft cases, Rosick added. One of the officers recognized the suspect from a car-prowl call in September, Rosick said. Just after 4 a.m. on Sept. 3, Redmond police responded to the 17700 block of Northeast 90th Street where they came into contact with the woman, who was driving a vehicle, and her 27-year-old male passenger, who was arrested for theft via car prowls after officers found several pieces of mail in the vehicle. He was booked into RPD and transported to King County Jail. On the mail thefts, Rosick said that people should try to not send money or gift cards in the mail, and it’s helpful to have a locked mailbox.

Brian Estrin still remembers when he received a bicycle for Christmas when he was about 6 or 7 years old. He still remembers his excitement in that moment, and now that he is manager at Redmond Cycle, he is doing his part to help other youngsters discover their potential love of bicycling — with the help of some of his customers. It all started when Estrin was speaking with a customer — who wishes to remain anonymous — about what the customer would do with the rewards he had earned during the course of the previous year. Estrin, whose store is owned by his father Ernie, said the rewards program at Redmond Cycle is a loyalty program in which customers can earn 10 percent back from every purchase they make during the course of a year. That 10 percent comes back to customers in the form of a voucher they can use during the month of December on anything in the store. After Estrin’s conversation with the customer, an employee brought up the idea of donating rewards to a good cause. Estrin said he then cautiously brought up the idea to the customer the next time he came into the store and it turned out that the customer had the same idea. The two decided to use the rewards voucher the customer had earned to purchase bicycles to donate to Toys for Tots in Pierce County. Estrin then mentioned the idea to other regular customers and in the end, a total of eight customers donated to the cause and together, they collected enough rewards dollars for 31 Giant brand bicycles. “It was awesome,” he said about his customers donating their rewards. In addition, Redmond Cycle donated 12 bikes to the cause for a total of 43. Estrin said they also included helmets so the kids who receive the bikes can ride them safely. He added that he had reached out to KIRO Radio and they received
some help from the station’s listeners, as well. “It kind of snowballed,” Estrin said about the support they received. Jeff Wilkes and his wife Wendy Wilkes were among the customers who also donated their rewards to purchase the bikes for kids. Wendy said they were in the same predicament as the other customer and asking themselves how they would be spending their rewards. She said they usually buy things as they need them, but they weren’t in need of anything at the moment. Estrin said the bikes they purchased are for youngsters about 8-9 years old and younger, wanting to focus on getting kids interested in bicycling at a young age. They were even able to purchase a number of push bikes, which have no pedals and are designed for little ones from about 2-and-a-half to 4 years old. “We’re happy to hook them young,” Jeff added. Originally, Estrin said he wanted to keep the bikes local and donate to an organization in King County, but after thinking about it, he just wanted to make sure the bikes went to kids who might not normally receive a bike as a gift. He said for some of these kids, this bike may be their first bike ever or their first new bike ever. Jeff agreed, adding that at least the bikes are staying in Washington. “This is our small way of giving back to the community,” he said. “Wendy and I are super excited to participate in the program.” Estrin said the Giant bikes they purchased run between $129 and $185, retail value. In addition to the cost of the bikes, he said store staff also had to assemble the bikes in-store. This may have been the first time Redmond Cycle has done something like this, but Estrin said he hopes to continue with the reward-donating program in the future. He would like to see more people participate and maybe donate less of their rewards, to spread the wealth. “I would love more people involved,” Estrin said.

Speaking out about LWSD’s proposed boundary options We are writing to express our concern with the impact of the proposed reboundary plans, which will add students to Rosa Parks Elementary School and Evergreen Middle School. Rosa Parks is already stretched to the limit, presently at 126 percent of capacity, and with the proposed reboundary plans will reach 146 percent to 157 percent of capacity. (Editor’s note: These figures do not include the school’s 10 portables.) Our clear impression is that the district does not have the students’ best interests at heart, and it only attempts to add a patch over a previous patch. The situation at Rosa Parks is already difficult, affecting school performance, and the experience of kids at the most vulnerable age. Presently, the cafeteria does not have enough space to accommodate the school’s population. There is not enough time for kids to stay in line, get the food and eat the food. To accommodate the large numbers, shifts were created based on grades. The kids that happen to be on the last shift need to eat their lunch in the classroom, as lunch time comes to an end by the time they get their food. Bathrooms are overcrowded, as bathrooms in the main building also serve the student population in the portables. The playground is also overcrowded. There is not enough shelter for kids to avoid rain during recess. Recess shifts were created to accommodate the increased population, however they only disturb classes in portables. Kids are sent out during recess even during solid steady rain, because there is not enough space for them inside the school (the inflexible rule being that kids cannot remain in class during recess). Portables do not have air conditioning for summer, when they overheat. There is no running water in them and no bathrooms. Kids need to run to the main building every time they need access to bathrooms, which is disruptive. There is no pavement to the portables — some have wood railings, which are slippery during rain. Portables also take away much needed playground space. Extracurricular activities are harder to get by due to very limited common room space for programs (portables do not provide common room). The gym is not really a gym, as it is not separated from the main school building — it is a large lobby instead (common space). It is noisy and disturbs classes. All the above will certainly get worse if more kids join Rosa Parks. Access to the school driveway will also increase the list of problems with the addition of school buses. As taxpayers, we would like to see a better use of the money spent for schools. Instead of finding an optimal use of the available school space, the district wants to bring even more portables to already agglomerated schools. Portables are costly, are supposed to be temporary and they provide an unsatisfactory class environment. The district already uses them as a permanent solution, and apparently there is no end in sight to how many more portables can be installed. The Finn Hill Middle School has available space — why not use it instead of throwing good money after a bad idea (portables)? Assigning student population to Finn Hill would also avoid adding more students to Rosa Parks — hitting two birds with a stone. What is wrong with this approach? Busing kids that already use the bus for another two to three miles seems like a better compromise than having the kids spend the entire day in inadequate portables.
We understand that unfortunately the bill to fund building of additional schools was defeated recently — but at the same time, more kids in our schools means more parents have moved to the area. Many of these families earn good wages, which brings additional money to the county’s coffers. Where goes all the additional tax money? Recently, a full-spec solid concrete bridge was built across Novelty Hill to allow wildlife to cross — and miles of fencing were built along the road. Was that bridge more necessary than providing funds for a new school in the area? The proposed changes do not appear to consider the kids best interests — at the end of the day, public schools have a certain mandate, which is to provide proper education, and that should be the main factor in making decisions. It is in kids’ best interest to have a good experience at school, and not have to go to overcrowded overstretched facilities. Rosa Parks and Evergreen are good schools as they stand — why lower the standard by pushing the limits? Please take another look at the proposed boundary changes with kids’ best interest at heart.
Endre Amiras, Redmond
••••• Members of the Redmond Learning Community are concerned about the district’s last-minute plan to allow Evergreen Middle School to become the next “Rosa Parks,” with its recent proposal to add four more portables to the nine already on site. Evergreen is already 200 students over original building capacity. (Editor’s note: This figure does not include the added capacity from portables.) It is now slated to nearly double that capacity to 1,120 seats with four more portables (including restroom portables) and space reconfigurations. As the community has testified to the school board many times before, adding classroom capacity does not translate to increased capacity in a school’s many shared spaces (cafeteria, gym, library, small-group learning areas, restrooms and playground as examples). Students are already impacted at Rosa Parks and Wilder elementaries by multiple shifts and scheduling of common spaces, not being able to run on sections of the playground due to crowds, and eating lunch in a noisy cafeteria or in classrooms since the cafeteria cannot accommodate all of the student body. Kids who are interested in participating in extracurricular activities are frequently unable to do so because of limited program space. The student population would also need to be split for student assemblies and after-school events at Rosa Parks with the new
proposed numbers, which is divisive to the school. We’re asking the boundary committee to take a harder look at utilizing existing permanent classroom space at middle schools in adjacent learning communities, including Finn Hill Middle School to the west where growth and development are more stabilized and fewer young families reside. The bus ride to Finn Hill would only be about two to three miles farther than busing those same students east to Evergreen. This would result in a less crowded experience for all students involved, and also limit millions of dollars being spent on portables at a time when district funds are tight or unavailable due to failed bonds. Overcrowding has adversely impacted our community for too many years already. We hope the school board and boundary committee won’t miss this important opportunity to address the situation with a true district-wide effort, rather than significantly adding to the problem.
Vinod Sharma, Redmond
••••• I am a concerned parent of Rosa Parks Elementary School and Evergreen Middle School students. It is now at least four years in a row that Rosa Parks is overcrowded, and yet it is on the radar of the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) to make it even more overcrowded. A generation of students are facing lower-quality school experiences in such basic daily activities as enjoying play time, having lunch with friends in the commons area (rather than sitting in the classroom) and even going to the bathroom. A couple of years ago, we appealed to the LWSD when they wanted to overcrowd the school by 80 percent, and which they reluctantly backed down to about 40 percent. All the while, there are other fair and reasonable options available to distribute the students to other area schools. The LWSD rationale behind singling out Rosa Parks and then Evergreen are at the best not well thought off. I am completely clueless why LWSD continues to target one area, and condemns one entire generation of students to miss out on quality education. It is plain wrong. They will be creating outliers on the wrong end of the spectrum. I also question the fiscal responsibility of LWSD in the light of other area school districts with similar demographics building new schools, adding new programs while LWSD is overcrowded and cutting school program budgets. Can we at least get a reasonably good school experience for our kids?

Medic One-trained paramedics make a difference in people’s lives
Metro sets all-time record for ridership in 2014 Metro Transit will close out 2014 with an all-time high in number of bus trips taken in King County. In the days just before Christmas, Metro expects to break the annual record for most rides taken in its 41-year history. Preliminary data show Metro’s annual ridership will be about 2 percent higher compared to 2013.
That’s more than 120 million rides — or an average of nearly 400,000 trips each weekday. Metro is the ninth-largest transit agency in the United States for ridership. “Our work in recent years to increase efficiency and productivity is helping to move more people than ever before,” said King County Executive Dow Constantine. “The transit measure approved by Seattle voters last month will help keep pace with increasing demand within the city, but sustainable, long-term funding is needed to satisfy the growing unmet need for reliable public transportation throughout our county and region.”

On Jan. 10, 2011, Becky Cole was getting ready for bed when she started feeling dizzy. And before she even had a chance to put down her toothbrush, she collapsed. The Woodinville resident said her husband had thought she was having a seizure but she had actually gone into sudden cardiac arrest. “I was gone,” Cole said about how her heart had just stopped beating. Cole’s husband called 911 and she said the operator instructed him on how to perform CPR. Soon, first responders — from the Redmond Fire Department (RFD) and other surrounding agencies — arrived to take over for Cole’s husband. While recounting the story, Cole explains that all the information she shares is secondhand as she has no memories of the incident after the initial dizziness she’d been feeling. “That’s the last thing I remember,” she said. Almost four years later, Cole — who was eight months pregnant with her fourth child at the time — is happy and healthy. Her almost-4-year-old son is fine, as well. “Like a typical 3-and-ahalf-year-old, getting into trouble every day,” she said. Cole credits her and her son’s survival to the para-
medics who responded to the 911 call. The first responders were Medic One paramedics, who must complete an intensive, 10-month training program. The program is privately funded through the Medic One Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing excellent prehospital care for patients in emergency situations. According to its website, the foundation was started when Dr. Leonard Cobb and Seattle Fire Chief Gordon Vickery initiated a program in 1969 to test two questions: Is it possible to save the lives of critically ill patients outside of a hospital? And can they train non-physicians to provide advanced care under the remote direction of a physician? “Within two years, they showed that the answer to both questions was ‘yes,’ and Medic One became a permanent community service,” the website states. According to its website, the foundation has provided the primary support for the research, paramedic training and medical review behind the Medic One response system for more than 30 years. Jan Sprake, executive director for the foundation, said Medic One trains paramedics for all of King County and a good portion of Snohomish County as well as other agencies throughout the Puget Sound region. While not all paramedics in Snohomish County
and other Puget Sound-area agencies are required to go through the Medic One training, Sprake said in order to become a paramedic in King County, the first-responders-to-be must go through the Medic One program. “You cannot be a paramedic in King County unless you go through our training program,” said Sprake. Currently, she said, 46 Medic One-trained paramedics have served the Redmond community. It is this intensive training — which totals 2,500 hours — that Cole is grateful for, saying the more advanced care Medic One paramedics learn made the difference in her case. She said if she had been living somewhere else, she probably would not have received as good care. “Without (Medic One), our lives would be totally different,” she said. At the moment, Medic One is training 23 soon-tobe paramedics — including two from Redmond. This is the largest class Medic One has had since 2003, Sprake said. The training program, which began in October, costs $575,000 and the Medic One Foundation has been holding a fundraising campaign, which will run through the end of the year, to cover the expenses. An additional $40,000 will go toward two new training defibrillators, Sprake said, bringing the total to
$615,000. She said they still need about $100,000 by the end of the year. Just as the foundation’s year-end fundraiser will help pay for medical equipment, Sprake said they have done the same in the past. For the City of Redmond, she said the Medic One Foundation has provide one automated external defibrillator, an emergency staff vehicle and a multiple casualty trailer. Sprake said the latter is to transport equipment and supplies needed to set up a headquarters in the case of a large disaster.

CAG presents final recommendations for Energize Eastside routes SAMANTHA PAK spak@redmond-reporter.com
At its final meeting on Dec. 10, Puget Sound Energy’s (PSE) Community Advisory Group (CAG) offered its final route recommendations to the utility for its Energize Eastside project. The panel — made up of neighborhood, business and civic leaders — spent about a year examining the 16 different segments of the route. These segments formed 18 possible routes stretching 18 miles between Redmond and Renton. After narrowing down its choices, the CAG recommended two routes: Oak and Willow. According to a PSE press release, of the 20 advisory group members and residential alternates present at the meeting, 17 supported the final recommendations. Of
those 17, eight expressed preference for the Oak route and five expressed preference for the Willow route, while four supported either route. Three advisory group members had a dissenting opinion and supported none of the routes. Both routes begin at the Sammamish substation off of Willows Road Northeast and contain the same first three segments (A, C and E). These segments run south, just west of 140th Avenue Northeast, ending at Southeast 30th Street in Bellevue. From here, the Oak route contains the segments G2, I and K2. This portion of the route runs west along Southeast 30th Street until it hits Richards Road and continues south along that road, which turns into Factoria Boulevard Southeast. The route then runs down SPECIAL!

These final two segments continue southwest through Renton, just west of Monroe Avenue Northeast and end at the Talbot Hill substation just off of Beacon Way South. At the point where the two routes separate at Southeast 30th Street in Bellevue, the Willow route continues south with the J segment, just west of 139th Avenue Southeast before veering slightly southwest to Coal

Avenue West in Edmonds. With assistance from Edmonds detectives and the North Sound Metro Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) Team, Pro-Act arrested a male for burglary and theft; the arrest was made in connection with a Dec. 4 burglary case in the 16100 block of Cleveland Street in Redmond. Investigators recovered stolen property related to the burglary at the scene. A female at the residence was also arrested for possession of stolen property for items not related to the investigation. Redmond’s Pro-Act Unit conducts investigations with crimes related to auto theft, car prowl, burglary and financial fraud. Pro-Act works collaborative investigations with nearby agencies and regional
partners, in this case the North Sound Metro SWAT Team, which includes Lynnwood, Edmonds, Monroe, Bothell, Kirkland and Lake Forest Park agencies. In the Dec. 4 case, officers responded to the report of a burglary at approximately 7:40 a.m. Office staff arrived at the place of business to find the office door had been forced open. A desktop computer, its components and multiple packages were missing. Recovered surveillance footage showed a man entering the business and taking packages and a computer between 2:50 a.m. and 3:12 a.m. The male placed the items into a vehicle with a female subject, who exited the driver’s seat. The surveillance footage was forwarded to investigators.

Kristen Brewer, who lives nearby in the 15100 block of Northeast 82nd Street, said while she did not witness the scaffolding falling or stop by the scene after she learned of the incident, she did hear many sirens from emergency vehicles at the time. Brewer works at the
QFC on Redmond Way just southwest of where the scaffolding fell and said one of her coworkers was getting off work around the time of the incident and heard it. She said her coworker saw people coming out of Ooba Tooba Mexican Grill (15802 N.E. 83rd St.), to see what had happened. Brewer’s coworker drove to the site and said the scaffolding was “covering the entire road from the building under construction to the buildings across the street.” The building under

The tenants were allowed back into their apartments by last Friday morning, she said. Rosick said when the scaffolding fell at around 8:10 p.m., winds were at an estimated 20 mph and still had not reached their peak speed for the night. The portion of scaffolding that fell was about 30 feet across and six stories high. It toppled all the way across 160th Avenue Northeast and struck the LionsGate canopy. Dan Selin, one of the vice presidents at Compass, said the property damage to the canopy is minimal, at about $2,000. As he surveyed the scene and watched the crane removal in progress last Friday morning, Selin added that they worked through the night to clean up the fallen scaffolding, which was piled up on a sidewalk. Compass planned to start rebuilding the scaffolding this week. Sages Restaurant, an Italian-European eatery not far up the street from the LionsGate canopy at 15916 N.E. 83rd St., was not struck. Selin said there had been diners inside the restaurant at the time. Sages owner Bart Kuliczkowski was in the kitchen cooking pork marsala when he felt the floor shaking and heard a rumble, which he thought was a car accident at first. “There was a large group of ladies at one table and I heard the ladies screaming.

The third party involved in this case was Safway, LLC. he said. “It’s not inspected by city staff,” Lynch said. All of the scaffolding around the building has been re-certified and deemed safe, Lynch said, adding that how secure scaffolding needs to be to withstand high winds depends on its height. Selin said Compass has never experienced tumbling scaffolding on one of its projects before. “The scaffold’s engineered and it’s rated for certain wind loads. I can’t tell you exactly where the wind gusts were, but obviously it was above what was anticipated,” he said. “There’s ties that hold it to the building, so it’s not an independent thing. It’s just a freak wind caught that corner.” Rosick said 160th Avenue Northeast was closed from Northeast 83rd Street to Northeast 85th Street as the construction crew worked to clear the debris. In addition, eastbound lanes along Northeast 83rd Street were closed from 158th Avenue Northeast to 160th Avenue Northeast and westbound lanes along Northeast 83rd Street from 161st Avenue Northeast to 160th Avenue Northeast were also closed. All roads were reopened over the weekend. LionsGate management declined to comment on the story.

EVERGREENHEALTH LAUNCHES NEW SERVICE
EvergreenHealth now offers a free, personalized service for consumers seeking an estimate for the cost of their care. With one call or online request, patients can get an estimate of their outof-pocket cost for medical and surgical care based specifically on their health insurance policy. In addition to the personalized service, EvergreenHealth has launched a Web page dedicated entirely to information and resources related to the cost and quality of care. Visit www.evergreenhealth. com/estimate or click the “Understanding Your Healthcare Costs” box on the EvergreenHealth home page.
Of course, you knew already that you should eat right, exercise regularly, not smoke and not drink too much alcohol. Now a new study found even more evidence that you are well advised to follow these guidelines. In fact, your life could depend on it. Among countless other health benefits, people who maintain a healthy lifestyle have a significantly reduced risk of stroke, the study concluded. A stroke occurs when one of the arteries carrying blood from the heart to the brain is either blocked or bursts. As a result, part of the brain does not get the blood it needs, and starts to die. When this happens, the brain either temporarily or permanently malfunctions, depending on the severity of the damage that has been caused.
While previous studies honed in on individual risk factors for stroke, this one looked at the effects of an overall health-promoting lifestyle. Conversely, by analyzing the combined risks from less health-conducive behavior, a more complete picture emerges of what may actually lead to a stroke and how it could be prevented, the researchers suggested. After reviewing medical data from nearly 24,000 people, and analyzing each person’s stroke-related risk factors, the researchers found that improving diet and lifestyle choices could significantly lower the number of strokes that occur every year. “Our combined risk factor analysis indicated that about 38 percent of primary stroke occurrences could have been prevented in our study population if all study participants had maintained the healthiest risk profile,” said Kaja Tikk, an epidemiologist at the Cancer Research Centre in Heidelberg, Germany, and lead author of the study report, to Reuters. According to the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 800,000 people suffer a stroke per year in the United States alone. The most significant contributors to stroke-related risks were found to be smoking and weight problems. Fortunately, these are areas in their lives where people have a great deal of control, said Ms. Tikk. Weight loss and smoking cessation can be done successfully by the individual, and taking such steps has almost immediate benefits. Staying within (or returning to) a normal weight range, eating a healthy diet, and exercising regularly to keep the weight off rank among the best measures for stroke prevention, according to the CDC.

Friend, who also had 15 points and 12 rebounds in a recent win over Eastside Prep, was named one of the Washington Interscholastic Activities Association’s athletes of the week. the right person to lead this program essentially since Sue Haviland Elaine Morse retired a year and a half ago. Girls lacrosse coaches are the hardest positions to fill and to be fortunate enough to have a talented coach like Elaine Morse want to take the reins is a great gift to our lacrosse community.” Katie Flinn served as the interim head coach for the 2014 season and guided the Owls to a 7-4-1 season. Said Wiley, “I made Katie a promise that she’d only have to be the head coach for one season. She is much happier as an assistant coach in our program, though she did a great job. She’s just as excited as I am that we landed Elaine.” Morse spent five years as a head coach in the Eastside Eagles program at the youth and junior high school level and assisted with the Lake Sammamish DII program. She helped start elementary (grades 2-4) girls lacrosse programs on the Eastside, trained new coaches, trained youth officials and served on the executive board for two years for the Washington Schoolgirls Lacrosse Association. As a player, Morse played at the collegiate level for Earlham College in Indiana.

Raven Rock Ranch in Redmond has announced that it will host an international learning program in equine therapy offered by the nonprofit institute Human-Equine Alliances for Learning, or HEAL, beginning in May 2015. The HEAL training attracts professional educators, counselors, therapists and life coaches from around the world, preparing them to incorporate the alternative therapy known as “equine-facilitated psychotherapy and learning,” or EFPL, into their work with clients. In EFPL, participants work with horses as a way of learning about themselves and gaining successful experience in relationships. “Raven Rock Ranch is a perfect fit for our work in teaching the HEAL model — which is a specific way of facilitating EFPL for the benefit of our human clients,” explains Leigh Shambo, licensed clinical counselor and president of HEAL. “The HEAL model provides an environment that is empowering to both human and horse. Psychologically, this is a model that is helpful for healing the effects trauma.” Shambo is the author of research studies on EFPL and also author of the book “The Listening Heart” about the HEAL model. The pairing of the HEAL model with Raven Rock Ranch as the venue is no accident. “Our ranch serves kids who have experienced trauma in some way — emotional trauma,” says
Sandy Matts, the founder (along with husband Tim) of Raven Rock Ranch. “Either they’ve been abused, or bullied, or… some other difficult thing. But the good news is: I get to try to help them out of that difficult spot.” The strategy at Raven Rock is to pair a rescued horse with an at-risk child. The experience of connecting to the horse gives each child a starting place to reconnect with the community. There is no cost for Raven Rock students, as the ranch is 100 percent supported by donations. For more information on Raven Rock Ranch, visit www.ravenrockranch.org. For more information on HEAL and its training programs, visit www.humanequinealliance.org.

Ecology seeking public comments on proposed plan through Dec. 31 Thanks to a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Washington Department
of Ecology is developing a statewide plan to better manage wetlands. Once regarded as wastelands, wetlands are now recognized as important features of the landscape. Healthy wetlands are among the most productive ecosystems on the planet. Ecology’s proposed plan includes developing a statewide wetland monitoring program and assessment strategy, as well as provides support for local governments in need of wetland expertise. The plan establishes a statewide structure that better protects and restores Washington’s wetlands and streamlines the permitting process. Ecology worked with tribes, local governments, state agencies and conservation districts to gather input for the proposed plan. The public is now encouraged to review and comment on the plan. The proposed plan is available for review on Ecology’s website (www. ecy.wa.gov/). Citizens also can request a mailed

E-Cycle: 250 million pounds of electronics collected through program
E-Cycle reached a milestone in November as Washington’s statewide
electronics recycling program passed 250 million pounds of TVs, computers and other electronics collected since starting in 2009. Over the past six years, Washington residents have turned in more than 5.4 million electronic devices. Electronic items contain toxic heavy metals such as lead, mercury and cadmium, and should not go to a landfill. The Washington Department of Ecology estimates the E-Cycle program has prevented 23 million pounds of lead from ending up in the trash. “Computers and electronics are essential to our society, and so is a clean environment,” said Maia Bellon, Ecology’s director.
...obituaries Jeffery Lawrence Hayenga
Jeffery Lawrence Hayenga was born March 13, 1951 in Coeur d’Alene, ID as the oldest son of five children to Wallace and Marian Hayenga. Jeff was a graduate of Coeur d’Alene high school (1969), North Idaho College (1971) and the University of Idaho (1974). Jeff married Patricia Edwards in 1976 and they were blessed with two children, Phillip and Kari, who are Jeff ’s proudest legacies. His family grew up in Washington, first in Prosser and then in Kennewick. He and Patricia have made a home most recently in Redmond. Jeff dearly loved his parents and four siblings. He was preceded in death by his father. Jeff will be remembered for his patience, keen mind, and servant’s heart. He worked for 20 years as a mechanical engineer on the Hanford reservation. In the community he was a member of the Tri-Cities & Redmond Rotary organizations. He served on the Voluntary Chore Service & Bike Program teams. While it was in Jeff ’s nature to serve, he was also a teacher at heart and he loved passing his skills onto willing students. As a result he leaves behind very capable children, nieces, and nephews. Jeff joined the Catholic Church in 2012 and through this was blessed with dear friendships and a sense of peace. Jeff ’s perpetual optimism carried he and his family through his heroic health battles with immense dignity. All who knew him were inspired by his will to live life to the fullest. Jeff ’s favorite pastime was sailing on his boat on Puget Sound and he loved getting away with his family in their RV. He was a wood working craftsman like his father, and the past several years found a talent for photography art. Jeff peacefully slipped into heaven on December 13, 2014 surrounded by his family. A Catholic Mass will be held at 12:30 pm on Saturday, December 20th at Mary, Queen of Peace Catholic Church in Sammamish, WA with a viewing at 11:30 am. A memorial service is planned for 12 pm on Saturday December 27th at Yates Funeral Home in Coeur d’Alene, ID. In lieu of flowers the family asks that donations be made to Habitat for Humanity. We are comforted by the memories of how he lived his life. He was an inspiration to all who knew him and will be greatly missed. Sail on Jeff! 1206456

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves
NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension. To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx
