Mayor proposes property tax increase BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

City property taxes could take another jump next year under Mayor Suzette Cooke’s proposed

budget. Cooke scolded the City Council during her mid-biennium budget presentation on Tuesday night for turning down her plan last fall to

raise the business and occupation (B&O) tax and start a vehicle license tab fee of $20 per year. Cooke said Council President Dana Ralph told her those revenue options were

off the table, so the mayor decided to go with a property tax hike. “I turned to the one revenue source you tapped last year, our banked property tax capacity,”

While there may not be a fairy godmother to turn a pumpkin into a carriage, the Cinderella Project helps make homecoming memorable for high school students in Kent. Each homecoming and prom season, the Kent Area Council PTA-run program brings its collection of more than 1,000 dresses – varying in color, size and style – to the district’s high schools for girls to borrow at no cost. All that’s needed to borrow one is a student ID card and a form signed by a parent. The program, which has been around for about 10 years, is open to all students regardless of income. When Amy Bickleman took

over as chair for the project in 2012, students had to pick out the dresses at Kent Phoenix Academy, where they are stored. Bickleman wanted to make the process more convenient for students, so she got rolling garment racks to hang the dresses, and started bringing them to each of the schools before the dances. “We wanted to make it easy for the kids to borrow the dress without having to go somewhere,” she said. Girls return the dresses to their school the Monday after the dance. When Bickleman started with the project, there were about 200 dresses. Community members and students have donated previously worn dresses to the project. “I haven’t bought a single dress,” Bickleman said. On Monday and Tuesday, racks of dresses filled Kentridge’s orchestra room. [ more DRESSES page 9 ]

Circus to take hiatus from Kent shows

FAIRYTALE GOWNS Cinderella Project loans homecoming dresses to students

Cooke said of her efforts to balance the budget with expenditures and revenue of about $87 million in 2016. The property tax jump would generate about $863,000 per year and cost the owner of a $300,000 home about $20 more per year.

Don’t expect to see the circus back for at least a couple of years or more to Kent’s ShoWare Center or anywhere else in the Pacific Northwest. Feld Entertainment, Inc., the parent company of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circuses, will soon close down the touring unit that appeared last weekend at the ShoWare Center and Oct. 1-4 at the Xfinity Arena in Everett. “We’re being told they are taking the gold (touring) unit off the road,” said Tim Higgins, ShoWare general manager, during a phone interview last Friday. The circus has appeared every year at the ShoWare Center since it opened in 2009. The first year Ringling Bros. brought their largest unit, known as the three-ring circus, to Kent. That unit travels by train and the stop included a

Rock the Green Saturday at Green River College BY HEIDI SANDERS hsanders@kentreporter.com

Blood moon A total lunar eclipse combined with a supermoon was visible in the skies above Kent Sunday evening. A supermoon occurs when a full or new moon makes its closest approach to Earth, causing the moon to look bigger and brighter than usual. A supermoon combined with a total lunar eclipse, is a rare occurrence. The last one was in 1982, and another won’t happen again until 2033. The next lunar eclipse will be in 2018. HEIDI SANDERS, Kent Reporter

The community is invited to Rock the Green this Saturday on Green River College’s main campus, 12401 SE 320th St., Auburn. The college and the Green River Coalition co-host the event, which is geared toward promoting conservation awareness, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Green River Coalition has hosted the event on a smaller scale in past years, primarily as a fundraiser. As the organization has received additional

grant funding, the event has become more focused on education. The coalition approached the college about partnering to host the event this year, said Heather McCurdy, the college’s director of conference services. “That fit well with our mission to the educate the public,” McCurdy said. The event takes the place of Gator Fest, which the college hosted in 2013. “We really wanted to put it a little more in direct alignment with the college mission, not just a fun event but also the edu-

Cameras to catch speeders at two more schools

SHERIFF’S OFFICE WARNS ABOUT JURY DUTY SCAM CALLS Phone callers trying to get people to pay money for missed jury duty or owing back taxes are a scam. The King County Sheriff ’s Office sent out a media release on Tuesday that it does not solicit for funds over the phone under any circumstances. If someone contacts you and tells you there is a warrant out for your arrest because you missed jury duty or that you owe back taxes, this is a scam. Discontinue the call immediately. The caller says that they are from the King County Sheriff ’s Office, or from the courts of King County, stating that because you missed jury duty there is a warrant for your arrest. They will tell you to pay hundreds of dollars to avoid being arrested. They use high pressure tactics to get you panicked and are very professional sounding. The Sheriff ’s Office or the courts will never call you for money on a warrant or tell you they are coming to arrest you.

Kent Police will send traffic citations to the owners of vehicles caught speeding through the photo-enforced school zones at Meridian and Millennium elementary schools. The registered owners of the offending vehicles will receive a $124 ticket when the speed violation is 1 to 9 miles per hour over the 20 mph school zone speed limit. If the violation speed exceeds 10 mph or more, the penalty is $248. Police only issued warnings during the first month of the program but

started issuing citations on Oct. 1. “Drivers need to be vigilant of their speed in school zones because children can dart into traffic and surprise a motorist at any moment,” said Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas. “Police will use the speed cameras as an enforcement tool to establish and maintain a safe environment for kids walking to and from school.” Meridian is at 25621 140th Ave. SE and Millennium at 11919 SE 270th St. Indicating the size of the problem, 236 warning notices were

issued between Sept. 1-24 at the two schools. “The number of warnings issued demonstrates the daily threat children face from motorists speeding in school zones,” Thomas said. “The cameras are in place to keep kids safe. The 20 mph speed limit has not changed. To avoid a ticket, drivers simply need to slow down and obey the law.” City officials in 2014 set up traffic cameras to catch speeders at NeelyO’Brien Elementary and Sunrise Elementary. A total of 12,578 tickets were filed with Kent Municipal

Court during the first 19 months of the program from January 2014 through July 2015, according to court statistics. The program has brought in more than $1 million to the city from the cameras at just two schools. Kent Police will spend $845,000 of school zone traffic camera funds on city jail renovations, police overtime costs, a use of force training simulator and traffic safety equipment. The cameras operate during school hours when the school zone beacons are flashing.

Kent Turkey Challenge fundraiser for food bank starts REPORTER STAFF

In an effort to collect donations for the Kent Food Bank, businesses and organizations are invited to participate in the 5th Annual Kent Turkey Challenge starting Monday, Oct. 5. “We were extremely blessed with the recordbreaking support shown last year with over $22,500 in donations raised and 10,800 pounds of food collected,” said Torklift Central owner Jack Kay in a media release. “For its fifth year, our goal is to collect 10,000 pounds of food and $25,000 in donations for the Kent Food Bank.” Over the past four years, cumulative donations exceeded $56,500 and 16,800 pounds of food.

Abandon boat Crews tow an 18-20 foot fiberglass boat from the east side of Lake Fenwick in Kent to the boat launch area on the west side where a tow truck removed it. The boat was investigated at noon Tuesday after a passerby noticed it overturned and called 911, according to a Kent Fire Department Regional Fire Authority media release. Divers and water rescue firefighters from several south King County departments, including Kent, responded to the scene and determined that the boat was unoccupied and appeared abandoned. Divers also searched the bottom of the small lake under the boat. At this point it is not clear why the boat was overturned and abandoned. There was no boat registration on the hull. Lake Fenwick is 17 acres in surface area and is on the West Hill of Kent. COURTESY PHOTO, Kent Fire Department RFA

again support the event through an official proclamation to be read on Oct. 20 during its meeting at City Hall. With nearly 70 Kent businesses, schools and organizations contributing last year, Torklift Central is gathering participants and plans to drop off donation boxes to participants beginning Oct. 5. Donations are accepted through Nov. 20. Businesses and organizations are challenged to a friendly competition to see who can collect the most food and monetary donations. Complimentary donation boxes and materials are provided to each participating business by Torklift Center. More than 45 businesses and organizations already are signed up. Businesses interested in participating can sign up by contacting Torklift Central marketing director Katie Brown at 253-720-1969 or Katie@torkliftcentral.com.

without the annual circus tour. “Now we have that time frame and will look for something else for that spot,� he said. Stephen Payne, a Feld Entertainment spokesman, said he expects the circus to return to the Pacific Northwest in the future, but wasn’t sure when. “Right now we don’t have any future dates,� Payne said during a phone interview. “But it’s an important market for all of our shows. My counsel is don’t be surprised to see the Ringling Bros. coming back.� When, however, remains to be determined as the circus enters its 146th edition in 2016. “It’s too early to tell,� Payne said about any Pacific Northwest or Kent dates. Julie Furlong, who serves as a Seattle area media consultant for Feld to promote the circus, said during a phone interview there are no plans for the circus to return to the Pacific Northwest. “The unit will end in October,� she said. Furlong said she was told it’s a part of doing business and that Feld will focus on growth in its other shows.

out of the circus by 2018. The elimination of elephants from the circus came as good news to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). The group protested the use of elephants in the circus for more than 35 years with claims of abuse of the animals. Protesters showed up with signs last weekend outside the ShoWare Center against using elephants in the circus, a march they have done each year in Kent. Payne said the lack of elephants in the circus isn’t the reason for ending the gold unit. Many other circus acts still draw crowds. He also said crowd numbers remained strong in the Pacific Northwest even with the circus coming

to town each year for the last several years. But Payne added routing tours for the two larger units to the Pacific Northwest becomes more of a challenge because of the travel by train. The company doesn’t travel into Canada, so booking enough stops becomes a challenge as does figuring out where to park the large circus train for several days during an arena show. “As we move forward with future shows, the Pacific Northwest is always a great market,� he said. “We need to look at logistics but it’s a positive market. I would not be surprised if we bring a larger unit there.�

Im also is enjoying the opportunity to work with Williams. “He is a very amazing person, and so humble for a person who has accomplished as much as he has,� she said. “I call him my Zen master because he’s always so calm.� As is Im, a teen who is enjoying the moment. “It’s been the most amazing experience any girl could ever ask for,� she said.

She initially tried to strike the bus but it already had pulled away. She then started to chase the nearby woman. She swung the stake at the woman and told her she was going to kill her. A third woman in the area told the woman being chased to go into a nearby restaurant for safety. That worked as the woman with the stake stopped her pursuit, broke the stake over her leg and began to walk northbound along Central Avenue South. Police found the woman walking in the 1200 block of Central Avenue South.

Kent Kangley Road. Officers noted that the apartment complex had a surge in calls over the last few weeks because of transients using a Dumpster area as a bathroom and to ingest drugs, according to the police report. Police took one of the men into custody because he had a warrant for failing to appear in court for a possession of drug paraphernalia charge.

Marie and her family moved to Rochester, New York, where Marie graduated from Monroe High School in 1937. Marie worked as a medical secretary at the Genesee Hospital School of Nursing and later with a Rochester orthopedic surgeon. Marie married Robert Nesteroff , of Rochester, N.Y., on September 20, 1941. After Robert joined the Army in 1944 and during his 26-year career in the military, Marie accompanied him to postings in the U.S. and Japan. Early on Marie set a pattern for lifelong volunteer activities with involvement as a Girl Scout leader and with St. Joseph’s Home, an orphanage in Tokyo, Japan run by the Sisters of Sacred Heart, who were from her family’s native Quebec. When her two children were in high school, Marie returned to work as a medical secretary in the Radiology Department at Western Clinic in Tacoma.

I read your article, “Kent firefighters help promote cancer awareness month”, Sept. 25, Kent Reporter), with great interest. But I don’t recall seeing any stats on male breast cancer. I was diagnosed with stage 3a breast cancer at age 49 three years ago. I had a mammogram, ultrasound, biopsy and a BRCA genetic testing. That was followed by a mastectomy, six rounds of aggressive chemotherapy, which was followed by 25 daily doses of radiation. So far, there is no further evidence of disease. Amen. And I take every opportunity to reach out in cases like this to educate and try to get the message out. Men get breast cancer, too. You can help now and in the future to help educate men.

Question of the week:

How does one introduce Shakespeare to teenagers? As soon as you mention the name of the famous playwright in a classroom, most students react in a Pavlovian fashion and tune out the lesson. I know, because I was one of them. Ever since reading Hamlet in the seventh grade, I never thought I’d really understand, let alone like, Shakespeare’s plays. But then I went to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and, suddenly, all I thought I knew about the 400-year-old dead white dude flew out the proverbial window. My girlfriend, a major fan of the Bard, helped this miracle in no small part, and I’m sure she would attest to my recalcitrant attitude toward anything related to Shakespeare if asked. So when her history lessons failed, when all the cajoling and flattering and the encouragement that I would like his plays if I would just give them a chance fell on deaf ears, she turned to me one day and said, “Did you know Shakespeare wrote one of the oldest ‘your mom’ jokes?” To give you a frame of reference for how quickly and intently I started paying attention, do you remember the first time you heard your teacher swear in class? It was exactly like that. And she wasn’t giving me click-bait either. Shakespeare really did write a “your mom” joke into “Titus Andronicus,” act 4, scene 2. Chiron: “Thou hast undone our mother.”/ Aaron: “Villain, I have done thy mother.” I won’t get into the specifics of the story, but yes, what you just read was Shakespeare making a punny joke about Chiron’s mother – not bad for a 400-year-old dead white dude. This isn’t an isolated occurrence, either. All of Shakespeare’s plays, and even some of his sonnets, contain jokes, puns and veiled references to sex. We just don’t notice because we assume Shakespeare is all posh

As I get ready to vote next month, I am reminded of the importance of selecting the right candidate for this job, therefore I am supporting and voting for Toni Troutner for Kent City Council Position 6.

Toni is always doing whatever it takes to help those in need and ensuring success in whatever she does. Toni has volunteered on many community committees and served as a PTA president.

ones who still hurt. Those coming home with parts missing, physically and emotionally. Those we have heard about. It’s not prime-time news anymore. But it remains vivid, painful and real for those Americans who wake up every morning with wounds. We try to remember, but it’s hard unless we were those who actually paid the price. I’m always been proud of Kent, but never prouder when I was asked to help our residents improve [ more DINSMORE page 7 ]

www.kentreporter.com and plot instead of inappropriate and occasionally obscene (thanks for nothing, Laurence Olivier). So I’m passing on the same wise words my girlfriend said to me that finally got me interested in Shakespeare. If you think Shakespeare is tedious, monotonous and one corner short of a pentagon, or you just need to be pointed in the right direction to find something you can get interested in, these words are for you; “Shakespeare is full of sex.” So why did Shakespeare weave all of these after-hour references into his classical works? Because he wasn’t just writing for the nobles and upper class who enjoyed plot and drama – he also wrote for the peasants and the uneducated working class, who enjoyed putting up their feet (metaphorically, because they all had to stand to see his plays) and have a good time laughing at inappropriate jokes. Shakespeare’s humor, decent or crass, is one of the many reasons people in 16th century England were able to emotionally connect to his plays.

[ DINSMORE from page 6 ] Veterans Drive up to Military Road. The street was set aside a couple of years ago for the city to honor those who served to keep us free and safe. The city wants to make Veterans Drive longer with American flags flying and places for veterans and their families and friends to sit and remember. It may even include a couple of picnic tables, so that our kids could learn over lunch about those who gave everything for their freedom.

But Shakespeare didn’t just put sex jokes into his plays to make them entertaining for the unwashed masses – occasionally, he’d write them just for himself (or some other lucky person), like in Sonnet 151. “Love is too young to know what conscience is;/Yet who knows not, conscience is born of love?/ Then, gentle cheater, urge not my amiss,/Lest guilty of my faults thy sweet self prove./For thou betraying me, I do betray/My nobler part to my gross body’s treason;/My soul doth tell my body that he may/Triumph in love; flesh stays no farther reason,/But rising at thy name, doth point out thee/ As his triumphant prize. Proud of this pride,/He is contented thy poor drudge to be,/To stand in thy affairs, fall by thy side./No want of conscience hold it that I call/ Her ‘love,’ for whose dear love I rise and fall.” I might have actually paid more than the minimum amount of attention necessary during my English Shakespeare lessons if I knew half the stuff he wrote could be considered literary

The city asked me to start a Kent Veterans Association that would bring out those who served. It’s an opportunity for veterans to be more visible in our city – the foundation and strength that they are. Kent does not want our city to become complacent with the memories of the fallen. An appreciative Kent wants to honor our neighbors, our police officers, our firefighters, people we work next to every day, the homeless on our streets, those who served and offered their lives for our freedom.

pornography. So to all the high-schoolers reading this, you are now well armed to tackle what you thought was going to be another semester of doldrums reading Shakespeare (think about all the fun you could have writing final papers now). The same goes for you teachers and professors out there – there’s absolutely no reason to be boring while covering Shakespeare. His works have survived for 400 years for many reasons; his stories can have us rolling on the floor laughing or bawling in our seats, and his sonnets have practically become the definition of romance and love (yes, even the one you just read). But the main reason his work is still widely studied and taught, in my humble opinion, is because they’re relatable, no matter who you are or what time period you’ve been born in. That, and sex jokes will never, ever get old. Ray Still is a reporter for the Enumclaw Courier-Herald. You may reach him at 360825-2555, ext. 5058, or rstill@ courierherald.com.

We need your ideas, we need your help, we need you, the veteran. We need families of veterans to bring proud memories and pride of service together.

[ TAX from page 1 ] The council last year approved a similar property tax hike that goes beyond the 1 percent state cap by using what’s called banked capacity. Kent has saved about $6 million in banked capacity because the city reduced its property tax levy by $1 per $1,000 assessed Cooke valuation in 2011 after voters in 2010 approved the formation of the Kent Fire Department Regional Fire Authority (RFA). The RFA levies a property tax of $1 per $1,000 assessed valuation. “It still leaves about $5 million in the bank, an amount I consider a bare minimum as

we face future fiscal realities,� said Cooke, who added the city will lose its Panther Lake annexation sales tax credit of about $4 million per year in 2021 and could lose other state-shared revenue as the Legislature figures out how to put more funds toward K-12 education. The mayor proposed the property tax jump to cover the remaining deficit in the 2015-16 budget. The city started the year with a deficit of $2.1 million. But tax revenues are coming in about $450,000 above estimates, cost of living adjustments (COLA) came in nearly $375,000 under budget and a public works engineering allocation budget correction saved $339,000. The council will spend the

next couple of months discussing Cooke’s budget proposal and deciding whether to go with her plan or come up with its own. A public hearing abut the budget is set for the Oct. 20 council meeting at 7 p.m. at City Hall. The council is expected to approve the budget adjustment on Dec. 8. The council began to debate the budget after Cooke’s presentation. “I like to keep things simple in my simple mind,� Councilman Bill Boyce said as he directed a question at City Finance Director Aaron BeMiller. “I’m always thinking about the taxpayer, so my neighbor who will say ‘you’re raising taxes again.’ Would it be a safe statement for me to say the only impact to you is $20,

assuming your house is worth $300,000, that’s the only impact to the taxpayer in the city of Kent, is that a true statement?� BeMiller replied the budget proposal only includes the property tax increase. He said how much someone spends on goods (and pays sales tax) also could determine whether they pay more in taxes 2016 or not. In addition to raising property taxes last year through banked capacity that will bring in about $1 million extra this year and in 2016, the council increased the solid waste (garbage) tax rate to 18.3 percent from 7.8 percent on each bill. That increase brings in about $3 million per year for street maintenance in neighborhoods.-

Sophomore Sierra Strege browses dresses on display at Kentridge High School in search of the perfect homecoming gown. HEIDI SANDERS, Kent Reporter

[ DRESSES from page 1 ] Girls spent their lunch period and time after school combing through the dresses to find the perfect one. Parent volunteers helped them select their gown. Freshman Harnoor Dhillon heard about the program during school announcements and decided to shop for a homecoming gown from the Cinderella Project. “I don’t want to keep buying new dresses every year,� said Dhillon, who tried on dresses before selecting a full-length, black gown with white trim. Sophomore Sierra Strege bought a dress for last year’s dance but wanted to check out the selection available through the Cinderella Project. “I didn’t want to become broke again,� Strege said. “It is nice to see what they have.� It is rewarding to see a girl find a dress that makes her feel beautiful and confident, Bickleman said. “I have girls come in who have said they have never worn a dress in their life,� she said. “I have had par-

ents come back and say, ‘My daughter is different since she wore this.’ It is about making girls feel really good about themselves.�’ Last week the dresses were at Kentwood High School and they will make their way to Kentlake on Oct. 5-6 and Kent-Meridian on Oct. 12-13. Bickleman has work parties several times a year to organize and inventory the stock of dresses. She recruits students to help and lets the girls try on dresses while they sort through them, pulling dresses they think are out of style. Dresses that are discarded still get put to good use, Bickleman said. “Some of them no one is ever going to wear, but we keep it in the school by donating to the drama programs,� she said. Bickleman has lent dresses to high school fashion clubs for shows, and in 2014 the Kentridge choir borrowed gowns for an Oscar-themed concert. “As long as we keep it in the school district and it is for a school event, we are willing to loan the dresses,�

she said. Bickleman gets calls from students in other school districts asking to borrow dresses. She can’t lend them out of the district, but she has helped neighboring districts, like Tahoma, set up their own Cinderella project. To get involved with Cinderella Project or to donate a dress, email Bickleman at cinderellaproject@kacpta. org.

Boxing club, KentHope host open house The Kent East Hill Boxing Club helped serve homeless women and children of the KentHOPE Day Center as city and community leaders toured the facility during an open house and barbecue on Sept. 24. The club does service projects throughout the community during the year, according to its director, Leslie Hamada. The KentHOPE Women and Children’s Day Center continues to make an impact

since opening on Dec. 16, 2013. It now hosts an average of 30 women and children each day and provides immediate needs: three substantial meals a day, showers, laundry facilities, computer access and resources for housing and jobs. Community partners such as Catholic Community Services, Sound Mental Health, HealthPoint, Valley Cities, Sober Solutions and Seattle’s Union Gospel Mission are helping guests as they move out of homelessness. In its first 19 months

of operation, the day center has helped 198 women and children find housing and 85 women find jobs. Day Center staff provides ongoing case management while encouraging and assisting guests to regain stability and obtain employment and housing. Demographic statistics show that more than 80 percent of the women the Day Center served are from South King County; and 50 percent have experienced domestic violence.

October is a good time to plant spring bulbs

Getaway to Little Norway Family Friendly Events

THE GARDENER

A. Romance in bloom is on the way. There is a company that has been selling spring bulbs in 100 lot color groupings for more than 50 years. They do require a $60 minimum order but they have taken the guess work out of mixed bulb displays by testing combinations together for perfect timing and color blends. The company is called “ColorBlends� and you can contact them at colorblends.com or phone 888-847-8637 and ask for a catalog. I found a red and white combo of tulips for you called “White Hot� and you can order 200 tulip bulbs in a 50/50 blend of colors. They also offer blends of daffodils and muscari, hyacinths and even amaryllis for indoor blooms. It is the classic tulip blends that made this company a favorite of public and private show gardens. Order early for best supply. Q. Can you help me figure out what type of bulb to plant? I was visiting a now gone neighbor and impressed that she had these very tall and impressive flowers in bloom despite the deer population in our neighborhood. I cannot remember Marianne Binetti

The beginning of October is a great time to plant spring flowering bulbs. Our cool winters and dry summers are what many bulbs need to bloom happily. Purchase bulbs as soon as you see them for sale at local garden centers or nurseries and if you cannot plant them right away, store them in a cool, dry spot where you will not forget about them. Finding a forgotten bag of unplanted tulip bulbs is almost a spring tradition for some gardeners. Your bulbs really do need to go into the ground before January for the best spring display. Planting bulbs in October will give them the time they need to develop roots before winter arrives. Q. Where can I buy a large amount of tulip bulbs at a wholesale price? I want to surprise my wife by planting several hundred red and white tulips in a newly vacant garden bed. She will be gone for a weekend and so that is when I plan to do the bulb planting in secret. I hope to surprise her this May with hundreds of tulips in bloom for a milestone anniversary. J.K. Tacoma

the name but I do remember the were taller than tulips and the flowers hung upside down. I believe they were e orange in color. Any ideas? R.T., Olympia A. Sounds like the majestic crown imperials a frittalaria that is very popular in Europe and needs to be planted more often especially in areas where deer and rodents damage tulips and other spring bulbs. The bulbs are large and need a sunny site with good drainage. Local nurseries and garden center have been selling them in the fall next to their display of other bulbs. Plant a generous grouping of six to 12 crown imperial frillalarias this fall and you’ll have neighbors knocking on your door this spring asking you what they are. I have also heard that Crown Imperial Frittalaria are called “punk flowers� because the unusual top notch of green leaves above the blooms looks like hair do you would see in a punk rock band. Q. I would like to force some fragrant bulbs indoors for enjoyment this winter. I have a special glass vase called a “hyacinth� vase and I used this last year to force hyacinths into bloom. Is there a daffodil that I can also force? Do I need a special daffodil vase? W.D., Enumclaw

You can watch the show via podcast at www.diginseattle.com or on Channel 22 KZJO TV at 12:30 p.m. Saturdays. The show focuses on local gardening tips and cooking demos from local chefs. A. What a lovely winter you have in your future if you take the time to plant some fragrant bulbs now for indoor bloom. The daffodils that are best for indoor use are called “Paperwhites� and they do not need any special chilling or treatment – nor any special vases. Just set these daffodil bulbs on a tray or saucer of pebbles that are kept moist and watch them grow. You will need to stake or corral the tall stems to keep them from flopping over but the sweet fragrance will permeate an entire room. Paperwhites will flower 5 to 6 weeks after planting so you can plan your bloom time to have fragrant indoor flowers for the holidays. They really are nature’s version of air fresheners.

Gropp, T-Birds aim for success on the ice

FEENSTRA WINS THIRD PACIFIC NORTHWEST PGA PROFESSIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP PGA pro Tim Feenstra of Seattle’s Broadmoor Golf Course came from five strokes behind fellow pro Brian Thornton of Meridian Valley Country Club in Kent to win his third Pacific Northwest PGA Professional Championship in a playoff Sept. 24 on the Canyon River course in Missoula, Mont. Feenstra had six birdies on his way to his 6-under par 66 to force Thornton into a playoff. On the first hole of the playoff, Feenstra birdied to win after Thornton’s birdie putt narrowly missed.

Ryan Gropp and the Seattle Thunderbirds anticipate big things this season. “We’ve got a real good group of guys,” said Gropp, the T-Birds left winger. “We are all just a year older from last year. Anything short of the playoffs is not good enough for us. I think, for us, we want to make a run this year. We have the group and the personnel behind us, so it is going to be a big year for us.” The T-Birds, who lost their Western Hockey League season opener at Vancouver last week, 3-2, open their home slate against Prince George on Saturday. Face-off is 7:05 p.m. at the ShoWare Center. Gropp returns to Kent ice after getting a taste of the highest level of pro hockey this summer. The 19-year-old Kamploops, British Columbia,

Gropp enjoyed the camp experience. “It is good to see all those pro guys and how they work day in and day out,” he said. “You just want to take little things from them and try to take that to your game, so it is huge positive to be able to do that.” The strength and size of the NHL players impressed Gropp. ”I think that is what I need to work on the most — getting stronger physically to be able to handle those guys,” he said. Gropp looks to take the next step to the NHL by making the Rangers’ American League team in Hartford, Conn., but right now he is focused on playing well this season. “I think me being a little bit of an older guy, I am just trying to lead by example on and off the ice, and hopefully this year lead [ more GROPP page 13 ]

Stars add two more soccer players FOR THE REPORTER

The Tacoma Stars have added defender Elliot Fauske and midfielder Michael Ramos to their roster. The duo joins the Stars in advance of the club’s first full season in the Major Arena Soccer League. The Stars, who open the season Oct. 24 at the Dallas Sidekicks, will feature 10 home games at the ShoWare Center in Kent. Fauske, 34, spent the last four years playing in the MASL with the Rochester Lancers and has also logged time with the Kitsap Pumas in the Premier Development League. Fauske played collegiately at Seattle University, where he helped the Redhawks advance to the NCAA

Division II Elite Eight as a senior. “Elliot is a veteran indoor soccer player that I have known since his days with the Kitsap Pumas,� said Darren Sawatzky, Stars coach and general manager. “He has a great resume as a player and he fits with our philosophy of winning games and winning in the community. I look forward to his arrival and leadership on this team.� While with Rochester, the Spokane native earned the club’s Community Dedication Award three times for his volunteer work in the community. “I couldn’t be happier to be back home in the Northwest playing for the Stars,� Fauske said. “Growing up I would watch Tacoma Stars games and our training facility is the first place I ever played indoor soccer as

a kid. I’m looking forward to being part of this club’s continued legacy under the leadership of coach Darren Sawatzky.� Ramos, 24, comes to the Stars after spending last season with the Kitsap Pumas of the PDL. Born in Spokane, Ramos went on to play at Walla Walla Community College, Seattle University, and Whitworth University. Coming out of college, he was drafted in the third round of the 2015 MLS SuperDraft by Toronto FC, but did not sign. “We faced the Kitsap Pumas twice this past year with the Sounders U-23 team, and Mike was a handful,� Sawatzky said. “You can see his quality on the ball and his ability to score in each competition.�

Brian Campbell threw for three touchdowns and ran for two more, leading Kentwood to a 62-24 rout of rival Kentridge in a South Puget Sound League Northeast Division 4A football game at French Field on Sept. 24. Campbell found Isaiah Williams on a 15-yard strike and hit Sukhraj Nahal from 20 yards out in the first half as the Conquerors (1-0 league, 3-1 overall) built a 34-10 halftime lead over the Chargers (0-1, 1-2). On the night, Campbell completed 10 of 20 passes for 134 yards. He also rushed for 110 yards. Kentwood finished with 212 yards on the ground. Campbell also connected with Bryce Richard on a 20-yard TD in the third quarter, a period in which the quarterback reversed field, escaped the pocket and made a 49-yard dash to the end zone, boosting the Conks in front, 55-17.
