Voters to weigh in on fireworks ban in Kent
Sound Transit picks I-5 route for light rail to Kent, Federal Way BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
Sound Transit plans to extend light rail tracks along the Interstate 5 alignment to Kent and Federal Way rather than along Highway 99. The Sound Transit Board of Directors voted unanimously to pick the west side of I-5 route as the preferred alternative for the 7.6-mile route from SeaTac to Federal Way at a July 23 meeting in Seattle. But the board couldn’t agree on where the agency should build a station in the Kent/Des Moines area, instead it approved amendments for staff to further study whether to put a station on the east side or west side of Pacific Highway South near Highline College in Des Moines. City officials from Kent, Des Moines, SeaTac and Federal Way already had agreed that I-5

An emotionally loaded question about fireworks requiring a simple yes or no answer will face Kent voters on the Nov. 3 general election ballot: “Shall the sale, possession and discharge of consumer fireworks be prohibited in the city of Kent?” The City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday at a special meeting to refer the advisory proposition to voters. The council will use the results of the vote to help determine whether to ban fireworks in the city. Any new ordinance passed by the council would not apply to the city’s Fourth of July Splash fireworks display at Lake Meridian or any other permitted display. Numerous complaints from residents to the council over the last few years about fireworks going off in their neighborhoods before, during and after the Fourth of July caused the council to consider a ban.

Young student pilot hopes his dreams take flight BY REBECCA GOURLEY rgourley@maplevalleyreporter.com
Brett Easter, a 14-year-old student pilot living in Covington, has a grand goal. This summer he hopes to become the youngest person to fly solo across Washington. Easter has been taking flying lessons at Crest Airpark in Covington since he was 11. His passion for flying no doubt was embedded by his dad, Bill, a former pilot himself. “(My dad) always talked about it,” Easter said. Another part of Easter’s mission is to raise money and awareness for multiple sclerosis, a disease his mom, Kyna Lawless, was diagnosed with in 2006. Easter said his mom is coping well with her disease, but endures flare ups once in a while. Easter started a GoFundMe page (www.gofundme.com/brettsultralight) a couple months ago to help him both buy the plane he needs to make the trip across Washington and raise money for National Multiple Sclerosis Society. His goal is to raise $10,000. About $4,000 of that will be put toward the purchase of the plane,
which is called an ultralight. An ultralight aircraft, under Federal Aviation Regulation 103, can be legally flown solo by someone who is 14 years old or older. Any other aircraft requires the pilot to be at least 16 years old to fly it. After fuel expenses and storage fees for the aircraft are paid, the rest will be donated to the MS society, Easter said. The trip Easter plans to take is 270 miles from Westport to Spokane. In all, the trip will take him six to seven hours he said because the plane goes about 48 knots, or 55 mph. Easter said he’s not nervous about making the journey, although his dad has a different view. “I would be (nervous) if he were leaving today,” Bill said. He said the aircrafts his son has been training with for the last three years have been very different from the ultralight he wants to use for the trip. Instead of a yoke steering mechanism, it’s the older style stick, and instead of having flight instruments to aid him, Easter will only have visual aids. He’ll have a radio that he will use to keep in contact with his family on

He said he wants to be a professional pilot once he’s done with school, but whether he’s going to be a military pilot or a commercial airline pilot is still up in the air.

City to add school zone speed cameras at two more sites BY STEVE HUNTER
shunter@kentreporter.com
Drivers will discover Kent’s school zone camera program spreading this fall to catch speeding violators at two additional schools. Cameras and warning signs will go up starting Aug. 31 at Meridian and Millennium elementary schools. Cameras already exist at
Neely-O’Brien and Sunrise elementary schools and brought in more than $1 million in fines to the city during the first year of operation. Drivers caught by Meridian, 25621 140th Ave. SE, and Millennium, 11919 SE 270th St., will receive warnings in the mail between Aug. 31 and Sept. 25. Starting on Sept. 28, vehicles exceeding the speed limit of 20 mph will receive tickets mailed to the car’s registered owner. Drivers will be issued tickets starting Aug. 31 at NeelyO’Brien and Sunrise elementary. “Our goal is to get drivers to observe the speed limit, especially
in school zones,” Police Chief Ken Thomas said in a media release. “To improve safety for school kids and to avoid receiving an infraction, all a driver needs to do is abide by the 20 mph speed limit. It’s very straightforward.” Cameras will operate on school days when the school zone beacons are flashing. Signs are in place to alert drivers that the school zone is a photo enforcement area. Cameras will capture images of the license plate of vehicles that exceed the school zone speed limit. Police issue a $124 fine for a ve-

Zachary Damien Craven pleaded not guilty to charges he murdered his grandmother and a short time later a friend of his former girlfriend. The 24-year-old Kent man was arraigned July 23 in King County Superior Court in downtown Seattle on two counts of first-degree murder, with a firearms enhancement, and one count of second-degree assault. He’s being held on $5 million bail in the King County Jail in Seattle. His next court appearance is Sept. 22 at the King County Courthouse. Craven’s grandmother, 66-year-old Angelika Anna Hayden, was found dead July 7 in her home on West Hill near Renton by his grandfather Robert W. Luxton. Just hours later, Meagan Smith, 21, was found dead in the Renton home of Rodney and Margaret Cunningham. Smith had agreed to housesit for the Cunning-

hams while they were on vacation with their daughter, a good friend of Smith’s. The assault charge stems from allegations that Craven used a gun to pistol whip and threaten his grandfather in Kent on July 2, according to prosecutors. Wyman Yip, senior deputy prosecuting attorney, wrote in charging papers that Craven is a threat to the community and has a history of abuse toward family, his girlfriend and animals. His prior convictions include animal cruelty for stabbing his grandmother’s cat to death as well as first-degree theft and domestic violence. The girlfriend of Craven broke up with him in June after about a three-year relationship. Smith was a friend of the girlfriend and was killed in the girlfriend’s family home. Smith and Hayden each died from single gunshot wounds to the head, according to the King County Medical Examiner’s Office.

State PDC fines City Council candidate Stober $2,000 for campaign violations Kent City Council candidate Bailey Stober must pay a $2,000 fine as ordered by the state Public Disclosure Commission (PDC) for campaign violations in 2011 and 2013 when he ran unsuccessfully for the council. The commission ordered Stober on July 23 to pay $1,000 within the next 12 months and the remaining $1,000 within 24 months as part of a payment plan, said Lori Anderson, PDC spokeswoman. The commission concluded Stober failed to file contribution and expenditure reports in a timely manner as well as committed other violations. The PDC agreed to suspend an additional $2,000 in fines as long as Stober has no more campaign

“There are no excuses. As a candidate, the buck stops here.� PDC staff began an investigation in January 2014 after Kent resident Don Mason filed a complaint in November 2013 about alleged campaign violations by Stober. Investigators found that Stober racked up a number of violations. Staff found that Stober failed to amend a C-1 candidate registration form in his 2011 race against Ranniger that listed Janet Stebbins as his campaign treasurer on 17 reports even though she no longer performed treasury duties and that he failed to preserve donation and expenditure records from his 2011 campaign. In 2013 when Stober lost to
be set. The jury convicted him on July 23. The bodies of the three men, each from Pierce County, were found March 10, 2011 by an employee of Rainier Nursery near the West Valley Highway, in the 26200 block of 65th Avenue South. The three men had been shot in the head and then buried. The motive for the killings appeared to be connected with a shooting in Lakewood that resulted in the death of two people and a foot injury to Avila-Cardenas, according to charging papers. It is believed that a cousin of Quezada-Ortiz may have been the shooter in the incident. King County Prosecutor Dan Satterberg said the case was solved as a result of the hard work and persistence by detectives with the Lakewood Police Department and the King County Sheriff ’s Office. “The Lakewood Police Department put extraordinary effort into this case when it was just a missing persons report, and the Sheriff ’s Office was able to use that work to swiftly build a case against the defendant once the victims’ bodies were found,� Satterberg said. “I also
Ken Sharp, investigators found that Stober failed to make his campaign books open for public inspection. In both years, Stober failed to file the campaign reports in a timely and accurate manner, according to PDC documents. Stober asked for and received a payment plan to cover the fine. PDC staff said Stober indicated he couldn’t afford to pay the full fine now because of significant personal expenses he had taken on by retaining custody of his grandmother had put him in a financial bind. When a commissioner asked staff if those extra personal expenses had been verified, he was told staff did not verify that Stober had taken on additional financial obligations. Mason, who filed the initial
complaint, attended the meeting in Olympia. “It’s over now,� Mason said during a phone interview. “I feel good about doing what I did. The laws are the laws and he (Stober) violated them.� Mason said the fine should have been higher. The PDC can fine candidates as much as $10,000 for campaign violations. “I was disappointed since there was about eight different things (violations) listed,� he said. Mason had hoped to testify before the PDC but didn’t get that chance. “I would’ve said there are laws and he (Stober) broke laws,� Mason said. “If every candidate did that they would need a thousand people to handle the cases.�
Alberto Avila-Cardenas, seen here in 2011 entering a not guilty plea, was convicted on July 23 by a jury for the first-degree murders of three men found buried in Kent in 2011. FILE PHOTO, Kent Reporter want to thank the prosecution team for all their hard work in bringing this case to trial.� A co-defendant in the case, Jose Alfredo VelezFombona, 29, pled guilty last month to a charge of second-degree murder and faces a sentence range of 10 to 18 years in prison. He’s scheduled for sentencing on Aug. 28 before Judge
Bruce Heller at the Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent. Cellphone records of Avila-Cardenas and Velez-Fombona show the two men traveled Dec. 12, 2010 to the Lake Union florist shop in Seattle where Bejar-Avila, Quezada-Ortiz and Rangel worked. They waited until the men got off work at
about 3 p.m. Cellphone records indicate Avila-Cardenas and Velez-Fombona traveled south, likely on Interstate 5, at around 3:30 p.m. The same records show the men arrived at about 4 p.m. in the area of the Rainier Nursery, and then leaving the area about 5:50 p.m. The records then show Avila-Cardenas and VelezFombona in the area of Velez-Fombona’s Kent residence on the West Hill, just a few miles from the nursery. Detectives served a search warrant on the residence of Velez-Fombona. They found the cellphone used in the Dec. 12 calls as well as a goldish-colored GMC Yukon bearing Oregon plates, expected to be the same vehicle a witness saw when at least two men picked up Avila-Cardenas Dec. 12 at his Lakewood home. Detective Christopher Johnson of the King County Sheriff ’s Office investigated the case. The prosecution team included Senior Deputy Prosecutors Mary Barbosa and Kristin Richardson, and paralegal Sue Trujillo and victim advocate Karen Kunde.

“Did the state Legislature do enough to support public education?”

?
Question of the week:
After six months of debate and convening three special sessions, lawmakers in Olympia finally reached agreement on a state budget for 2015-17. The new budget voted on in July increases spending on K-12 public schools from $15.26 billion to $18.15 billion, an increase of 19 percent. Lawmakers achieved this large rise in spending with the natural increase in current revenues, without imposing new taxes on Washington families and business owners. Earlier, Gov. Jay Inslee broke a campaign promise and said he wanted to impose a capital gains income tax, saying it was essential to fund schools. Lawmakers of both parties rejected the proposal. The new budget funds class size reductions to 19-22 students in grades K-3, to 17-21 students in grades K-3 in high-poverty schools, expands all-day kindergarten and preschool, provides large increases in materials, supplies and operating costs, expands learning assistance and other categorical programs and increases the pay of teachers and other school employees. Republicans in the Senate pushed hard for education spending increases without raising taxes. Democratic and Republican lawmakers worked hard to fulfill the requirements of the state supreme court’s 2012 McCleary decision. Since then lawmakers have increased state spending on public schools by over $4.5 billion, a 32-percent increase in four years. The 2015-17 budget represents one of the largest one-time increases in public education spending in state history. While administrators and union executives will certainly welcome more public money in the system, funding boosts in past years show that more spending alone does not improve learning outcomes for children.

And yes, on long summer days I would draw faces on my new starchy friends.
Secretary of State Kim Wyman has predicted an eventual 26-percent turnout for this offyear primary on Tuesday. That is the same as 2013, the last comparable election year without statewide races on the primary ballot. Ballots must be: postmarked no later than election day, Aug. 4; returned to a designated ballot drop box by 8 p.m. on election day; or returned in person to your county elections department by 8 p.m. on election day.

[6] July 31, 2015 [ FINNE from page 5 ] As the court ruled in McCleary: “Pouring more money into an outmoded system will not succeed.â€? Here are some of the structural reasons more spending alone doesn’t work: • Only 60 cents of every education dollar reaches the classroom; • The majority of school employees are not classroom teachers; • Seniority rules keep “lemonâ€? teachers in the classroom; • Tenure rules make it hard to fire low-performing principals;
www.kentreporter.com • Good teachers cannot receive performance bonuses; • Teachers must pay union dues or be fired. Lawmakers did offer bills to end automatic seniority rules in layoffs and assignments, in an effort to raise teacher quality, but these improvements were blocked by union executives. The session again highlighted the state’s powerful teachers union, the WEA, as the primary obstacle to reform. Union executives closed schools across
the state in a series of rolling, one-day walkouts, yet the only message behind the strike action was more spending, especially pay raises for adults, not policy improvements to help children. In the years ahead we should not be surprised if the large increases in education spending do little to improve student learning. Large increases have been enacted before, while overall test scores remain flat, the dropout rate is about the same and the achievement
gap has grown worse. The good news is lawmakers decided not to increase the financial burden they place on Washington families with a tax increase. Still, there is no reason to think a 19-percent increase in education spending without structural improvements in how the money is spent will produce better results for children. Liv Finne is the education director at Washington Policy Center, an independent, non-profit organization. For more information, visit www. washingtonpolicy.org.

Mayor’s pay raise? Having recently moved to Kent, I cannot say that I know anything about the mayor (Suzette Cooke) or her way of running the city. I do know that getting a 35 percent raise would upset most voters since they are lucky to get a 1-5 percent raise nowadays. I think that if the commission thought the mayor’s salary should be that high, they should have raised it over a period of years rather than giving an embarrassing raise like that. As for having her vacation time bought out? We should have a useit-or-lose-it policy, unless we feel we cannot do without the mayor
working every day of the year. But I do not think that is the case. Even the president of the United States takes vacations. When you pay someone for their vacation time, you are paying them twice for the days of vacation they have built up. Just take the vacation, the city will go on without you while you are gone. If the mayor has a conscience at all, she will have the commission that decided she needed a 35 percent raise, go back and have a “do over.� If not, then I hope someone starts a petition to strike down the raise and make it something reasonable. But that is just my opinion. What is yours?

Shane juggles Blue Origin job, hydros BY HEIDI SANDERS
hsanders@kentreporter.com
SEATTLE MIST TO PLAY LAS VEGAS SIN IN WOMEN’S FOOTBALL The Seattle Mist women’s football team wraps up the regular season with a Western Conference game against the Las Vegas Sin at 8 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 1, at the ShoWare Center in Kent. Seattle, with a 3-1 record in the six-team league, has locked up a spot in the Western Conference playoffs of the Legends Football League and hopes to advance to the 2015 Legends Cup on Aug. 23 at the ShoWare Center. The league used to be called the Lingerie Football League. Las Vegas has a record of 0-3-1.
Jimmy Shane spends his working days as an integration engineer in Kent. But on weekends, the 29-yearold Covington man is a fierce competitor with a zeal to race high-powered hydroplanes. “It has always been a pretty large passion starting as young as I did,” said Shane, a world and national champion who drives the U-1 Oberto/Miss Madison machine in the H1 Unlimited Hydroplane Series. Shane, reigning Gold Cup and H1 Unlimited High Points champion, and the Oberto team return to Lake Washington for the Albert Lee Appliance Seafair Cup this weekend. Shane will look to capture his second Seafair showdown in three years in Sunday’s final (4:40 p.m., KIRO 7 TV).
All in the family Shane began racing boats at the age of 8, following in the footsteps of his father, who first took up the sport in 1969. Shane’s mother and sister also competed, form-
Jimmy Shane, who works in Kent, and lives in Covington, drives the U-1 Oberto/Miss Madison to victory last weekend along the Columbia River in the Tri-Cities. COURTESY PHOTO, Christopher W. Denslow ing a family contingent that raced each other during Shane’s teenage years. “We all traveled together as a family,” he said. “It was fantastic.” Shane was named Shane American Power Boat Association Region 4 Rookie of the Year in 2001. He drove in the limited classes before entering unlimited competition as a substitute driver in 2007.
He raced his first full season in the H1 Unlimited series in 2012 and joined the Oberto team in 2014. Shane’s passion for hydroplanes also includes their construction. He built his own boats when he first started racing. “My family owned a custom metal fabrication business,” he said. “I grew up in the industry of metal
fabrication.” Shane’s background in metal fabrication and experience building boats led to a job building rockets at Blue Origin, LLC, a privately funded aerospace manufacturer set up by Amazon.com founder Jeff Bezos. Shane began working at Blue Origin about two years ago, when he moved to Covington from his native Maryland with his wife, Bianca, who is originally from Sammamish.
“She got her way and we ended up here in Seattle,” Shane said. Shane is able to balance his job with racing, using vacation time to go to races. “They (Blue Origin) knew hiring me about the hydroplane racing,” Shane said. “They have been absolutely great to work with.” Shane’s wife and 2-yearold son, Colton, often travel with him to the races. “We like to do that as family,” he said. Shane said he will let Colton decide when he gets older if he wants to race. “If he is anything like me, it is going to be really hard for him not be somewhat involved growing up in that environment,” he said.
Striving to be the best Racing has taught Shane many life lessons, such as trying new things and learning from failing. “Setting goals and trying to achieve to the highest you can is one of biggest life lessons I have learned,” he said. [ more SHANE page 11 ]

log boom makes for choppy waters, not allowing the boats’ waves to dissipate, Shane explained. “When the wind gets blowing it throws another toughness to the race course,” he said. “It is very unpredictable and changes every single lap. … It is exciting for the fans but tough for the race team to win Seafair and keep the boat in one piece.”
Shane achieved one of his goals this season, repeating as Gold Cup champion with a win in the Tri-Cities last Sunday. The win on the Columbia River was Shane’s ninth career conquest in H1 Unlimited Hydroplane Series racing, putting Oberto in the lead for the National High Points title. For Shane, winning the Gold Cup on the Detroit River last year in his first season with the Oberto hydro was a big accomplishment, since it had been 43 years since Miss Madison won the prestigious trophy. Shane and his crew are now targeting a second goal – another series title. Such a feat, Shane pointed out, not only comes with the U-1 number for the boat but gives the team bragging rights Golden day: Jimmy Shane and the U-1 Oberto team came away with the Gold for an entire season.

[ LIGHT RAIL from page 1 ] would be the preferred route for the more than $1 billion project. That consensus by the cities impressed the Sound Transit board, which is composed of elected officials from across the region and chaired by King County Executive Dow Constantine. Sound Transit plans to expand light rail from the Angle Lake Station at South 200th in SeaTac, which opens in 2016, to Kent/Des Moines near South 240th Street by 2023 and then the full 7.6 miles to Federal Way near South 320th Street when more funding is secured. Construction is expected to begin in 2019 on the SeaTac-to-Kent extension. Now that the agency has a preferred route, staff will prepare a final environmental impact statement (FEIS) for the preferred route with a final board decision to be made late next year.

well. I think we’re at a point where it’s time to listen to the rest of the community that perhaps haven’t had the opportunity.” Kent city code allows people to purchase and possess legal fireworks from June 28 to July 4, but fireworks can only be discharged from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. on July 4. Violators of the code must pay a $250 fine. State law allows fireworks sales and use on certain hours between June 28 and July 5. According to state law, any ordinances adopted by a county or city that are more restrictive than the state shall have an effective date no sooner than one year after their adoption. That means if the council adopts a ban later this year or early next year, it won’t become effective until 2017. “We have received a great deal of correspondence about this,” Councilman Dennis Higgins said. “This is an advisory vote, it’s non-binding but I will personally consider it binding. The council is going to have to follow through, assuming a ban
is voted in favor of by the people. If they don’t vote in favor, of course, the council doesn’t need to take any action and the status quo will be in place. “My crucial point is at the end of all this there’s going to be some sizable portion of the city that will be disappointed. I may be one of them, I don’t know,” Higgins said. “It could go either way and I will probably be disappointed in some way, shape or form. … I hope that everyone will respect the will of the majority and follow through on that, even those who end up on the losing side of the argument I hope they will respect the will of the majority.” It will cost the city less than $5,000 to put the measure on the ballot, according to city documents. Kent is one of the few cities in South King County without a ban. Federal Way, Des Moines, Burien, SeaTac, Renton and Tukwila have bans. Auburn, Maple Valley and Covington restrict use. Maple Valley city leaders are considering a ban.
City seeks pro, con arguments for voters’ pamphlet The council seeks people to serve on the pro and con committees to prepare written arguments in support and in opposition to the fireworks ban, which will be included in the King County Elections local voters’ pamphlet for Nov. 3. Applications to the city are due by 5 p.m. Monday, Aug. 3. Apply online at Kentwa.gov/ProCon. For more information, contact city clerk Ronald Moore at 253-856-5728 or rmoore@ kentwa.gov. The council will appoint up to three people to each committee at its meeting at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 4. Each committee’s statement must be no more than 200 words and be submitted to King County Elections no later than 4:30 p.m. on Aug. 13. Any rebuttal statements are due by Aug. 17. There is a limit of three members, but committees may seek advice of any number of people to assist in developing the statements.

7. Be polite. Being a customer doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re entitled to any sort of service or product, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll gladly refuse to serve you if you bark orders at me or my coworkers. The corn will keep roasting, no matter who you are. 8. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask us where another food vendor is. Just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. 9. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask us if what we serve is organic. Looking for organic food at a street fair is like trying to find common sense in a Donald Trump speech. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to be there, and at the end of the day, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to be swallowing a lot of crap anyways. 10. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t complain about our prices. We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t set them and we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t change them. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to pay, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fine â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there are literally hundreds of other people who will. Working any sort of food vending job is hard. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intense work with long hours and little pay, so please, when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re enjoying your next street fair, keep these tips in mind, and we will gladly reciprocate your kindness and genteel manner with the most delicious piping hot, buttered-up corn on the cob we can.
yS
So maybe it was the heat, or the blisters running the length of my foot or the lack of sleep I had during this venture back into the blue collar world, but I found myself barely holding back the urge to enact a â&#x20AC;&#x153;mandatory tipping feeâ&#x20AC;? every time a customer deviated from proper food vendor etiquette. So if you enjoy those large fairs with rides that spin so fast they make you sick, drinks so large they make you sick, and where you can eat as much corn as you want until you make yourself sickâ&#x20AC;Ś please consider these tips when you order your food. 1. Look at the stand youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ordering food from. This seems like a no-brainer, but if I had a dollar for every time someone stood underneath the awning of the booth that advertises our roasted corn in green letters as large as my forearm and asked me if this is where everyone is getting their corn, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d never need to shuck another cob again. 2. Know what you want. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a slow day, please come ask us what an Arnold Palmer is, and what sort of free samples we have of those yummy, crunchy, cinnamon-glazed nuts we carry. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way to break out of the monotony, and I get to perform my well-rehearsed spiels about the food we serve. But if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a busy day and you are at the front of a line 20 people deep, please tell us what the beast in your stomach is
craving and step to the side. 3. Give us your order all at once. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t parse out your order in three or four separate sentences because that makes it hard for us to keep a running total of corn and drinks to serve. 4. Have your money ready and out of your wallet. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re about to partake in one of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest, albeit messiest, treats. Even if you pay with a $100 bill, just have it out in your hand and put your change in your pocket so you can grab hold of that delicious corn dripping with butter instead of trying to juggle your fancy purse or leather wallet with your large lemonade and weapon of buttery destruction. 5. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fold your bills. This may be the cardinal sin of vendor shoppers, even worse than not having your money ready. Every time I have to unfold or un-wad a mess of one dollar bills, I want to club you with the corn that should rightfully be used as nourishment, not a tool for corporeal punishment. 6. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask for special treatment. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t roast the corn differently, shave the corn into a cup or MacGyver some sort of holding instrument for your food when I have a line of famished corn-ivores behind you. And if I do help you, because your kids are extra cute or you obviously need the help, keep us happy by putting your change into the tip jar. A dollar or two goes a long way in making sure everyone who needs special treatment receives it.
into college.â&#x20AC;? MultiCare has long recognized the need to encourage a more diverse and well-prepared health workforce. It began its first Nurse Camp in 2003, graduating 30 students. Every year since, the camp has grown in popularity, with an increasing number of young men considering nursing careers, too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The experience was phenomenal,â&#x20AC;? said Jared Luna, a Nurse Camp graduate and volunteer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was pretty sure I was going to go into nursing. â&#x20AC;Ś (The camp) was a great final stepping stone to confirm (my interest in) nursing.â&#x20AC;? Luna, of Tacoma, volunteers weekly in the emergency department at St. Francis Hospital in Federal Way. He begins a four-year nursing degree program this fall at Pensacola Christian College, Fla., and has his sights set on a career as an advanced practitioner nurse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking to specialize in either emergency or trauma (department nursing),â&#x20AC;? Luna said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to be flexible. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who or whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coming in (for immediate nursing care).â&#x20AC;?
RN recruiters say many Nurse Camp participants go on to careers as RNs, some decide to become specialists, like imaging technicians or physical therapists, and still others choose medical school. Options like that intrigue Faatihma Nasheed, 17. The senior-tobe at West Auburn High School wanted to see for herself what Nurse Camp was all about. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like fast-paced things. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m outgoing and get along with everybody. I care about people. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know there were so many fields in the medical profession,â&#x20AC;? said Nasheed, who is exploring the possibility of becoming an obstetrician. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My grandmother was a midwife, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen many births of my cousins and family. â&#x20AC;Ś I just think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beautiful.â&#x20AC;? Avry Freaney, a junior-to-be at Kentwood High School, is debating between careers in medicine or nursing. The camp has provided a great opportunity to see if nursing is the right fit for her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really great exposure,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It gives you an idea of what you might like to do before you go

ments and other factors play a part at any given time at whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s available to those breaking into the specialized nursing profession. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There currently is a great demand for nurses. We are in the early stages of another nursing shortage,â&#x20AC;? said Kim Giglio, director of talent acquisition programs for MultiCare. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of it has to do with demographics. When people went into nursing there was a period of time when nursing wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t at the top of the list of professions that people were choosing. They were choosing high tech or other fields. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And then, here in Pierce County, we did a really good job of building visibility for the career of nursing through events like Nurse Camp, working with the schools, educating students about the fact that nursing is a great career choice,â&#x20AC;? Giglio said. As RN recruiters point out, todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nurse needs to be well organized, customer-service oriented, empathetic, flexible, and have good time-managementand problem-solving skills.

annual Nurse Camp July 20-24. During the five-day camp, students tried out medical devices, performed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Skittlectomiesâ&#x20AC;? on mannequins, practiced suturing on pig kidneys and shadowed professional nurses and other health care professionals in various departments at MultiCareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five hospitals â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Auburn, Tacoma General Hospital, Mary Bridge Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital and Health Center in Tacoma, Good Samaritan Hospital in Puyallup and Allenmore Hospital in Tacoma. The camp was everything and more to Rosales, 16, a junior-tobe at Kent-Meridian High School. The process is competitive, and this year the camp chose 109 of the 250 teens who applied. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to go in with high expectations, nor low expectations, but I know that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely been something very eye opening for me,â&#x20AC;? Rosales said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now I know, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, This is probably something that I will be doing.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I feel more certain and confident.â&#x20AC;? Rosales, the elementary school
girl, wanted to become a doctor one day. But the teen had a change of heart after a Nurse Camp promo on her high school bulletin board caught her attention and offered a preview of a different career choice. She has come up with a new plan. She begins a two-year prenursing degree program through Running Start at Highline College in the fall. She intends to pursue a four-year degree and preferably work as a pediatric nurse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For a long time I thought I wanted to be a doctor, but I really realized that wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for me,â&#x20AC;? said Rosales, whose great-uncle is also a nurse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really wanted to spend time with people, take care and interact with them. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always been interested in the medical field, always had that connection.â&#x20AC;? Rosales figures that when she graduates from college, the demand will be great for registered nurses. According to RN recruiters at MultiCare, there is a demand for nurses now. The size and nature of the RN work force fluctuates, runs in cycles, they explained. Retire-

TO THE TOP: A JOURNEY UP MOUNT SI BY REBECCA GOURLEY rgourley@maplevalleyreporter.com
Not everyone’s idea of a perfect day off is waking up at 5 a.m. and hiking for six hours. Usually it involves shutting off all alarms, sleeping in, enjoying a nice cup of coffee at your leisure and planning out the rest of your day. But, when you want to do a hike and avoid heat and crowds, waking up at 5 a.m. on your day off is really the only way to get the job done. Mount Si is known in this area for the spectacular view at the top and possibly one of the longest day hikes. In the early morning, the trail is entirely shaded by the mountain itself and the thick canopy of trees. This obviously makes for an easier ascent. It’s still not an easy hike, especially for a pair of amateur hikers, but it is certainly better than leaving the bottom mid-day and arriving back at your car when it’s been in the mid90s for several hours. The hike itself is about eight miles roundtrip and about a 3,000-foot elevation gain. My first word of advice
for anyone wanting to try to tackle this beastly hike is… take is sloooooow. Take it very slow. Especially if you’re new to big hikes. I had a goal of making it up to the base of Haystack, which is the name of the last climb (literally a climb) to the very tippy top, in less than 3 hours. I made it, with two minutes to spare. Climbing Haystack took another 40 minutes or so. We encountered a man who passed us on the trail five times. Yes, that means he ran up and down Mount Si three times in the time it took us to do it once. That should give you an indication of how slow we were going. The man said he does it almost every weekend. So don’t go trying to run Mount Si even once unless you’re an advanced runner/hiker (crazy person). During the course of our adventure going up and down the mountain, I took note of a few things that may be helpful to the amateur hiker that wants to challenge themselves with a trip up Mount Si. First, items that you cannot forget: sunscreen, chap stick, bug spray, self-adhe-
sive gauze wrap, bandaids, at least two liters of water per person, high-protein energy bar (we brought Clif Builder’s bars and zucchini chips), an extra pair of socks and of course your camera or phone for a picture of the view from the top. We also saw people with walking sticks who looked like they made the climb a bit easier, whole picnic lunches and their dogs. I don’t think our cat, Gary, would have liked the hike too much so we left him at home. The first few minutes of the hike are very deceiving. It starts out very flat and then quickly becomes very steep. If you can make it to the 15-minute mark without turning around and stopping for a while, you’re probably good to go the rest of the way. At a certain point, pain and being out of breath all becomes very relative. What was painful to you at the beginning of the hike becomes a piece of cake about an hour into it. Still take breaks whenever necessary because all that matters is that you make it up, not that you can do it in an hour.

What is an Advance Directive? When a loved one is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease there are many questions. One of the most confusing aspects can be the legal documents that need to be signed while your loved one is still able to participate in decision making.
Haystack Climbing the last part can be very challenging, especially for those of us that are terrified of falling to our death (me). If you’re not very balanced, I would just pick a nice spot at the top of Mount Si and call it good. The view is still pretty good from here. But, if you’re up for the challenge and for
the ego-building ability to say you got to the top of Haystack, by all means keep going.
