Children and parents raised more than $80,000 for their PTSA when they gathered on Thursday, Oct. 15, for the Orange Ruler Fun Run at Snoqualmie Elementary School. The event was a collaboration between the cchool, PTSA, and Orange Ruler, an educational fundraising organization. Diana Reul-Shapiro, PTSA president, said that the group had done fun run events in the past but after hearing about the Orange Ruler from schools in the Issaquah School District,

he wanted to find a better method to raise money for schools.

Under the microscope Hospital Commission candidates discuss finances, relationships at forum By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter

Accountability, in finances, transparency, and public outreach was the theme of the third and final Snoqualmie Valley Chamber of Commerce candidate forum on Oct. 16. This time, candidates running for positions on the Hospital District Commission answered the public’s questions. Only four of the six candidates attended, David Speikers, incumbent in position 1, Ryan Roberts incumbent in position 3, and for position 5, Joan Young, incumbent, and Steve Weaver. Fritz Ribary challenging Speikers for position 1, prepared video messages for his opening and closing statements. Emma Herron, challenging Roberts, did not attend. Moderator Steve Pennington asked the candidates six questions over an hour at the monthly

The forum started with a discussion of the hospital’s $98 million debt and whether tax-payers would be liable for it. Roberts said the district was performing as predicted and the hospital is making the necessary payments. The remainder of the debt is on an amortization schedule and will be paid over the next 30 years. All candidates agreed there was no need to increase taxes at all.

It has been several years, since Mount Si High School has marked Homecoming with a parade, but the tradition is back for Homecoming 2015. Community members and alumni are invited. The parade starts, 5:15 p.m. Friday, Oct. 23, at the back parking lot of the high school, turns right onto Schusman and proceeds to Park Street. At Park, the route turns right, then right onto Meadowbrook Way, on to the front parking lot of the school. A pep rally starts at 6 p.m. at the stadium and the Homecoming football game starts at 7; Mount Si hosts Newport.

Pennington then asked the candidates why they feel they are a better choice than their opponents. Young spoke about her history in the medical field, citing her involvement in nursing for over 40 years and her experience seeing health care change over the years. Weaver said bringing a business and management perspective to the board would be more useful than a medical perspective today because board finances don’t require an in-depth medical background. “We’ve got a staff that can educate us to those issues,” he said. Speikers said he has taken a leadership role on the board through his handling of the finances and his knowledge of the hospital district. He emphasized his passion for this role and his ability to work while under pressure. Roberts spoke about his career working with hospitals and physician groups around the state. He said his work gives him a unique perspective into running a hospital as he has seen the challenges many hospitals around the state face and understands the business side of what they are dealing with. The hospital has been criticized for not being transparent about its decisions and finances. SEE HOSPITAL, 3

Student shift

Elementary schools to change attendance boundaries for 2016 By CAROL LADWIG Editor

Two meetings this week should help Snoqualmie Valley School District staff finalize plans for populating its sixth elementary school, now under construction. The meetings, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, at North Bend Elementary School, and 6:30 p.m. Wednesay, Oct. 21, at the Mount Si High School Freshman Campus, will cover the two elementary school boundary change proposals, Options B2 and C2, now being considered by the school district. Both meetings are informational, says Jeff Hogan, district co-superintendent. Community members will have further opportunities to raise concerns with the school board through surveys and at the board’s Oct. 29 meeting. Neither of this week’s meetings are expected to be contentious, “When we’re adding a school, these (processes) are pretty quiet,” Hogan said. “When we’re not adding schools, it’s tougher.” The new 31-classroom elementary school, located on Snoqualmie Ridge is set to open next fall. It will draw students from three of the five existing elementary schools in the district, and four of the five schools will see some change as a result of the new boundaries.

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

“One of the criteria was to have students attend school in the cities where they live,” Hogan explained. Currently, about 600 of the 1,150 students who live on Snoqualmie Ridge are being bused to Fall City, North Bend and Snoqualmie Elementary Schools. Under both of the new boundary proposals, about 500 of them will be within the new school’s attendance boundaries. Roughly 100 students from Fall City Elementary, 200 from Snoqualmie Elementary and 200 from North Bend Elementary will attend the new school next fall. Another 100 students will be added to the North Bend Elementary boundaries from Opstad Elementary, to allow additional capacity at Opstad for expected growth. Snoqualmie Elementary School will remain the district’s largest elementary, both in capacity and population, Hogan said. A committee of staff, including the district’s transportation manager and several elementary school principals, has been meeting weekly for several months to develop the attendance boundary proposals. They initially considered five proposals, but last week narrowed the field to two. The committee will present its recommendation to the school board at its Oct. 29 meeting and the board is expected to adopt the new boundaries at a special meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 4. For more information on the boundary review process, visit the school district’s website, www.svsd410.org.

Options B2, above, and C2 are the top two selections of five boundary change proposals under consideration for the district’s transition from five elementary schools to six. A sixth school, 71,000 square feet, is now under construction and scheduled to open next fall.

Naming a school is necessary, but challenging, say Snoqualmie Valley School District officials. As they prepare to begin the nomination process for naming the district’s sixth elementary school, they have worked to avoid the many pitfalls that can come with a specific name, such as Cascade View Elementary, which shares a name with schools in Snohomish and Tukwila. The rules for the process are few. Anyone can suggest, or nominate, a name, via the district’s online survey or at the district office. There is no limit to the number of suggestions, but to be considered, names must be significant to the area, not conflict with other place names, and not include a person’s name. The nomination process will begin Nov. 9. School board members will review the suggestions Dec. 6 and each will select up to three names. Their choices will be announced as the finalists, and more feedback gathered. The vote on the name is expected on Jan. 28.

Candidates were asked if they felt the criticism was warranted and what they would do to improve that aspect of the commission. Weaver, the only candidate present who was not currently on the commission, could not speak to the past, but said increased transparency could be easily achieved with improved advocacy in the community. Speikers said he has appointed two people to help on the finance committee which is “headed in the right direction” to improve communication. Roberts said the transparency issues stem from years past and the current board is trying to be as transparent as they can. Young called out the public, stating they have public board meetings every month at city hall that are poorly attended. “I’d love to see anybody there,” she said. Circling back to finances, the candidates were then asked about their strategic vision to deal with the thin margins of the medical business. Speikers, Roberts, and Young all felt similarly, stating the majority of the hospital’s user base doesn’t

Roberts said they need to look into a strategy that will take the hospital to a “fee for service” model and that this is a common concern with hospitals. Weaver spoke about possible affiliations with other healthcare providers and changing the entire reimbursement structure. On the topic of community outreach and marketing the hospital, the candidates agreed letting people know about the new hospital is important and is something the current board is trying to address. Weaver suggested events and lunch-and-learns to bring more people into the facilities and Speikers suggested looking for grants that could help fund outreach projects.

The final question of the forum addressed the relationship between board members, the board and the leadership team. Roberts described the board’s past working relationship as tumultuous, but said he has been an important contributor to bringing the relationships “from hostile to amicable.” Young agreed with Roberts’ assertion that the board has a better working relationship than in years prior, but said not all the board members are totally respectful of others, creating some issues. Speikers said his position on the finance committee had been one of the most heated areas of disagreement for years, but now people were working together and focusing on issues. As the self-proclaimed “outsider” on the panel,

Weaver said from his experience, the board’s relationship could be described as “cautious tension,” and while it has improved, it seems as though they are “in a mode of ‘fake it till you make it.’” He also said that in his career in management, he creates strong working environments and he would be able to do that for the hospital board. A Si View Metro Parks Commission candidate forum was also scheduled at the luncheon. Only Susan Kelly participated.

Debate club grows numbers, demos talents By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter

Washington Olympians and Hall of Famers came out to celebrate the grand opening on Oct. 10. Pictured from left are, back, Phil Mahre, Susie Luby, Debbie Armstrong, Mark Bathum, Scott Macartney, Steve Mahre, Judy Nagel, Angeli Van Laanen, and Patrick Deneen; front row, Libby Ludlow, Shannon Bloedel, and Randy Garretson.

On Saturday, Oct. 10, the Washington State Ski and Snowboard Museum held its grand opening with 13 Olympians in attendance. Located directly across from the Summit Inn on the Snoqualmie Pass, the museum is home to many exhibits detailing the history of snow sports and how they have evolved. David Moffett, president of the museum, said the grand opening was a success, with hundreds of people showing up to see the new exhibits and the specially invited Washington Olympians. “It was fabulous, we had about 300 people there,” Moffett said. “We had 13 Olympians which was pret-

ty amazing, and we had a lot of donors.” Some of the Olympians at the grand opening included World Cup skier Judy Nagel, gold medalist Deborah Armstrong, and Phil and Steve Mahre, brothers regarded as some of the best skiers of their time. Moffett explained that the museum is aiming to be a more lively, interactive place through the use of digital content in exhibits. “It’s a very informative museum, we have eight monitors that tell stories, most are touch screens,” Moffett said. Having a digital component to the museum also enables staff to change up the content regularly to make it a fresh experience for repeat visits, he added. The exhibits on display are not just a history of snow sports, but also a look at how these sports have evolved

and the accomplishments of Washington athletes. Exhibits include a 1940s-style rope tow that runs across the whole museum, a booth about the history of skiing gear, Nordic skiing traditions, and a booth for the Outdoors for All Foundation, which helps bring skiing opportunities to people with disabilities. Moffett’s personal favorite is the awards display that showcases Washington athletes’ achievements over the years, like Mahre’s World Cup and Armstrong’s Olympic gold medal. The museum is open from 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Fridays through Sundays. The museum is staffed by volunteers, including three from North Bend. Moffett said the museum is looking for more volunteers. Contact him at the museum at (425) 434-0826, or visit more at www.wsssm.org.

Korssjoen said, noting that at one event, Zinkan was named first speaker from all of the students competing. “We had a lot of success and it has spread via word of mouth.” Thompson said the team has never performed poorly at a tournament. In fact, they usually bring back some sort of accolade from every tournament they attend. According to him, the showcase also was a practice session for the upcoming tournament season and as a lesson for the new members of the club. “All the new members get to come and watch, so everything that they’ve been learning gets contextualized with an actual debate,” Thompson said. Korssjoen, Thompson and Zinkan all agreed that joining the speech and debate club was one of the best decisions they’ve made. “If there is one thing that I could take away from this, it’s that all the accomplishments are great, but what debate does for you as a person and the things it teaches you are things that are really hard to learn if you don’t have that experience. You are doing all this research and trying to find both sides of something that you might not agree on. It really opens up your mind as a person and it really allows you to put all those thoughts into one area and be able to say what you think.” Zinkan said. “I think debate is the best decision I’ve ever made,” Thompson said. “Yeah, I second that,” Zinkan said. Korssjoen agreed. “I third that.”

While most students get nervous or scared by the prospect of public speaking, the debate team competes in it. The Mount Si Speech and Debate team, a very successful club at Mount Si High School, hosted a public showcase debate to raise money to travel to tournaments, raise awareness and possibly attract more students to the club on Tuesday. Two teams of two debated on a topic set by the National Speech and Debate Association. Lauren Zinkan, treasurer of the club, explained. The discussion prompt they debated relates to the refugee crisis in Europe. “In response to the current refugee crisis, a government should prioritize the humanitarian needs of refugees over its national interests.” Zinkan read. Dana Korssjoen, co-president, said the club is using the showcase to help get people to notice them and to show how the debate process works. “Basically what we are doing with that event is we are trying to get a lot of community visibility and we want to open debate up to the rest of the community in hopes that they see what’s going on here and what kind of a change it can make for people,” Korssjoen said. Ruary Thompson, co-president, said the club started small, but grew exponentially in a short time. Current membership is 73. “It grew over 1,000 percent,” Thompson said. “We started with four members two years ago, membership has gone up exponentially.” Korssjoen thinks that the club’s consistent success at tournaments has made more people interested in joining than ever before. “Last year we got first and second in state, we had two teams go to nationals, myself and Ruary, and two people who graduated. We did really well at all the national tournaments we competed at,”

Retain Roberts for hospital commissioner As a former Air Force officer, fighter pilot, Vietnam prisoner of war and international commercial airline pilot, I know the importance of leadership. Unfortunately, we don’t appear to have enough of that in our country today. That’s why I’m asking you to retain Ryan Roberts as commissioner of King County Public Hospital District 4, position 3. As a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, a former fighter pilot who has served his country in combat, and Navy veteran, Ryan has already proven himself as a leader. He brings the skills and expertise required of an officer in today’s modern Navy into the demands and rigors of managing complex business processes and has done so successfully in the health care industry for the last eight years. We are so fortunate to have such a dynamic, intelligent and qualified young man to serve on this board. It is an honor and privilege to ask you to join me in voting for Ryan Roberts for commissioner. Joe Crecca North Bend

Herron is challenging wrong opponent In the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital District race for position 3, between Emma Herron and Ryan Roberts, I was dismayed by implications raised in the local voter’s guide. Herron notes the district is “deeply in debt” and laments the 2012 decision to sell the old hospital to the Snoqualmie Tribe at a 50 percent discount. While I agree these decisions were unsound, Herron is running against the wrong commissioner. The decision to accept the discounted purchase price from the Snoqualmie Tribe was made in June 2012. Decisions to incur substantial debt date back to the mid-2000’s. The district incurred further debt on the new hospital. If Herron disagrees with these decisions, why doesn’t she run against David Speikers in Position 1 or Joan Young in Position 5? Speikers has been on the board since 2006 and Young since 1999, when the debt was incurred. Both voted in

favor of the discounted sale of the hospital. Roberts became a commissioner in May 2014. He has worked to establish fiscal accountability and responsibility. His career is advising the healthcare industry in risk management. Roberts also understands the need for this new hospital to expand patient care by improving quality of healthcare provided. Herron and the community would be better served by her running against the commissioners who perpetrated the decisions she opposes. Roberts stands apart by actively engaging in steps to fix prior mismanagement, place the district on sound financial footing, and ensure the district advances the interests of patients and taxpayers. As I agree with all of these actions, I will vote for Roberts. Mark Hawkins Snoqualmie

Bilanko understands government We whole-heartedly endorse Judy Bilanko for North Bend City Council. Judy brings applicable knowledge and skills from her work as Public Information Officer for the city of Wenatchee, 15 years in banking and her current position on the city parks commission. She understands city government, budgeting and finance. She is smart, knowledgeable, and an outstanding communicator. She follows through on responsibilities. Her statements at the candidate forums have shown that she does her homework, analyzes topics and develops realistic proposals for issues such as growth, infrastructure, downtown revitalization and affordable housing. She demonstrates concern for making responsible financial decisions. For example, Judy recommends more affordable approaches to full downtown revitalization, rather than a bond issue for the historical block which her opponent recommends and which may benefit his own business. She has no personal agendas other than serving the entire city. Judy is recently retired and has stated she will devote whatever time is needed to be prepared and present at the multiple meetings each month required to competently conduct city business. We are confident Judy will be an excellent council member. We will vote for

her and recommend others do the same. Jeri and Frank Cranney North Bend

Experience makes Bilanko the right choice I strongly endorse Judy Baker Bilanko for North Bend City Council position 7. Judy will bring a rare combination of skills to the position. Her career in banking and as a city public information officer provide direct knowledge of municipal government and finance. Her family history and roots in the Valley provide historical perspective. She is currently an active member on our parks commission. Judy has unwavering integrity, high intelligence, and excellent communication skills, with a dash of humor appropriate for the situation. She is analytical, organized and fulfills her commitments. Effective council members devote much time and effort to the job. There are seven or eight scheduled meetings per month (three for council, two for committees and two or three liaison groups), plus meetings with staff and constituents. For committed members, those meetings involve time, preparation, reading and research. Judy won’t be out of the city when business needs to be done. She will be prepared and at the table. Judy’s substantive responses at the recent

candidate forums reflected the in-depth thinking and background work she utilizes to become familiar with city issues, study the city budget and understand the legal constraints which determine what cities can and cannot do regarding issues such as housing developments, impact fees and timing of infrastructure improvements. She offers reasoned and financially feasible solutions. Judy’s opponent promotes a major project in the block where his business is located. Judy has no special interest other than the betterment of the entire city. Jeanne Pettersen North Bend

Kelly will bring wealth of experience I encourage you and your readers to vote for Susan W. Kelly for Si View Metro Parks Commission, Position 5. Having worked closely with Susan on the commission, I can attest to her sharp, community-forward mindset. Many of our district’s successes can, in one way, shape or form, find a thread back to her incredible contribution. She brings a tremendous wealth of experience and passion back to the commission. Susan knows the board, the topics and issues that need to be addressed, SEE LETTERS, 6

Peterson is dedicated to city The November election for Snoqualmie City Council includes one of the most dedicated Snoqualmie citizens that I know of. I served on the council for two terms in the 1970s with then-mayor Charles Peterson. In that time, Snoqualmie grew from the classification of “town” to the city it now is. I think the citizens of Snoqualmie are lucky to have a choice of good, experienced candidates running for office but I believe Charles Peterson is the man for the job. He will represent both historic Snoqualmie and the Ridge with equality. Ed Wentz Snoqualmie

I am writing to encourage the citizens of Snoqualmie to re-elect Charles Peterson to Snoqualmie City Council. Charles has devoted his life to the service of this city and we are very fortunate that he is willing to continue. I had the pleasure of serving on the council with Charles for nearly 10 years. He is an exemplary public official who is intelligent, honest, hard-working and truly devoted to all of the citizens of Snoqualmie. His knowledge of the city, its development, its politics and its history are unmatched on the city council or in the administration. He brings all of his knowledge and his research skills to bear on his decisions. He encourages deep and thoughtful discussions that make full council decisions better. With nearly half of the current council new in their positions, it is very important to retain Charles’ experience, dedication and historical knowledge to support the new members. Charles is known all over the region as a very well respected public official. He is endorsed by five current Snoqualmie City Councilors, an incoming councilor, several former Snoqualmie City Councilors, the Mayor of North Bend and representatives of the North Bend City Council, numerous Snoqualmie city commission and board members, and many other community leaders and citizens. Charles is a man of integrity and an extremely valuable resource to this city and the region. I urge you to join me in voting to re-elect Charles Peterson to the Snoqualmie City Council.

...obituaries Ruth Martha Grew

Former Snoqualmie Valley resident Ruth Grew died September 3, 2015 at her home in Maple Valley, WA, at age 88. Ruth lived in North Bend for more than 50 years. Ruth was born to Alex and Martha Schaffer, February 9, 1927 in Sinneringen, Bern, Switzerland. Growing up, she loved long walks with her parents and brother Hugo. Ruth learned to play the accordion at an early age. She acted and sang in local plays, landing the lead role in “Vreneli,” a highlight of her young adult years. She graduated from a 3-year business college, Kantonale Handelsschule Bern, served an apprenticeship at Kaiser AG, and worked at firms in Zurich and Bern. Ruth met Snoqualmie Valley native William Grew, when Bill visited his aunt in the fall of 1949 in Stettlen, Switzerland. Living next door to Bill’s aunt, 22-year-old Ruth Schaffer caught Bill’s eye. Bill and Ruth married November 24, 1949 in Stettlen. Shortly afterward, Ruth traveled with her husband back to America. For years they made their home on the family dairy farm in North Bend, which today is known as the Nintendo property. Bill and Ruth were blessed with three sons while living on the farm. In 1959 the Grews moved into town, and Ruth gave birth to a daughter in 1960. The family was most important to Ruth and Bill. After the kids grew older, Ruth landed the first job she applied for in America, as a librarian with Snoqualmie Valley School District. She started at Fall City Elementary for a couple years, then spent 17 years at North Bend Elementary. Ruth and Bill participated in many Swiss cultural events in the western U.S.; Ruth also performed solo gigs in Washington state, playing her accordion and yodeling. Upon retirement Ruth and Bill enjoyed traveling, gardening, and spending time together on Vashon Island, where they built a vacation home in the 1980s. In 1992 Bill lost his life to cancer. Ruth’s faith in God kept her strong through her heartbreaking loss. She made her final trip to Switzerland in 2008 when she attended her 65-year high school class reunion. In recent years Ruth continued her love of knitting, reading, writing, and trying out new recipes. She was active on Facebook and had fun reconnecting with many of her former library students. Ruth is survived by her children, William; Hugh (Ingrid); Daryl; Shirley; and granddaughter Alyssa. A memorial celebration will take place Sunday, October 25, at 1:30 pm at the Meadowbrook Interpretive Center.The family suggests remembrances be made to the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Society. 1442891

Tolt-MacDonald Park’s bicennential bridge

What started as a project for the U.S. bicentennial celebration became a massive effort involving thousands of people that would improve the Tolt-MacDonald park for decades. John MacDonald, banker, Navy veteran of World War II and volunteer for the Seattle Council of Boy Scouts of America, had a development idea for a

park and campground that had been acquired by King County in 1964. Alan Sinsel, King County Parks District Maintenance Coordinator, explained that a notice from the president to the Boy Scouts of America is what spawned the idea in MacDonald. “During the Nixon administration, he put out a notice to Boy Scouts to do projects for the (United States’) bicentennial,” Sinsel said. A campground had

already been built on the Carnation park, but the area on the west side of the property had not been developed. Developing that portion of the park was MacDonald’s brainchild. He wanted a bridge that could connect the two sides of the park, split by the Snoqualmie River, and found help in completing the project from the Army Reserves’s 40th Engineering Company, Courtesy Photo

He also organized all the Boy Scouts in the greater Puget Sound area, approximately 20,000 of them, and over a four-month period, they cleared the land, built campsites, shelters, cabins, and an amphitheater that are still there today. The bridge was the Army Reserve’s job, but they didn’t have much experience in building suspension bridges so they went up to Canada and got help

from some of the armed forces there who had experience in building that type of project. MacDonald was able to bring together a massive amount of people to work together on this community project, but was unable to see the result of all the work they had done. “Unfortunately, he had a heart attack and died on May 10, 1976, weeks before the project was finished,” Sinsel said. The park was named the “Tolt-MacDonald Park and Campground” when the project was finished in June, 1976.

Years later, one of MacDonald’s sons was volunteering at a King County Parks event and got in

A Valley Tradition

Mount Si GC has been a Snoqualmie Valley tradition since the 1920’s when the land was transformed from a hops farm into a golf course. It became an 18-hole public course in the 1930’s. In 1958,1985, and 1994 the course underwent significant changes and has evolved into a popular public golf course. The restaurant saw changes to its outside and inside looks in the late 2000’s and continues to serve excellent food along with a smile.

From silent to sound: A history of movie theaters in the Valley

Courtesy Photo

The Brook Theater and the adjacent stores on the corner of Meadowbrook Way and Park Street in Snoqualmie. By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter

The Snoqualmie Valley has always had a historic connection to the movies. From the era of the silent film to today’s modern era, the local theaters have always played an important part in the Valley. Due to the collection of Valley history in the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum and

the hard work and research of David Battey, recording secretary for the museum board, the history of these theaters has been preserved. Almost all the information available on these theaters was recorded by Battey. Battey has written several articles about the history of the Valley’s theaters since the early 1900s. The Valley had three major theaters: the Sunset Theater, the

Pictureland Theater, and Brook Theater. Cristy Lake, assistant director at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum, said the Sunset Theater was built into an existing Snoqualmie building that is now Sigillo Cellars in Snoqualmie. “The Sunset Theater is still around,” Lake said. “It was repurposed as a town hall and fire hall, then it was

the union hall for years, and then Christine purchased it and restored it as Mignone and then it’s been several business since then.” In 1923, the Brook Theater, built by William and Geneva Cochrane on the Northeast corner of Meadowbrook Way and Park Street in Snoqualmie, opened. The Brook was the largest and most luxurious of the theaters in the area. It

THEATERS FROM 10 late 1923 due to the huge competition the Brook had brought to the Valley. “The guy that started the two silent movies before the Brook, he just kinda disappeared back to Issaquah and then the Brook folks bought him out. So they had all three,” Battey said. In the late 1920s, sound was introduced to the world of movies. The two competing technologies, the Vitaphone and Movietone systems, were both installed in the Brook so the selection of movies wasn’t cut off. Battey described these systems as reminiscent to format wars we have seen in the last couple decades. “It is kind of fun when they started the talkies. It was like VHS vs Beta,” He said. “There were two ways to show talkies and they had to pay to have both of those systems installed in the Brook Theater.” The Brook saw a lot of success when it started showing “talkies,” but this new technology made the Sunset and Pictureland theaters largely irrelevant as they were still limited to silent films. Due to the recession, which started in 1929, both theaters were closed in 1930 so the Cochranes could focus on the Brook Theater.

Battey gathered much of his information from Cochranes’ corporate records for his research into the business behind the theaters in the 20s. “If you are going to waste money when you have none, a movie ticket is an absolute wonderful indicator of how much spare change there was in the Valley, so I thought that was amazing to find all of the corporate books of the Cochrane Motion Pictures Corporation, including the closing down of Pictureland and Sunset and the beginnings of Brook, all there,” Battey said. “It was just amazing.” The Cochranes ran the Brook Theater until the 1940s when they sold it. The theater eventually closed its doors in the 1960s. But that was not the end of movies in the Valley. In 1941, the North Bend Theater opened. It is still standing in the same spot and is still open for business. Lake said having three theaters in such a close range to each other really showed how important that kind of entertainment was to people. The fact that the North Bend Theater is still standing and in good condition after 74 years is a testament to the hard work and passion the community has

Bottom: The the Sunset Theater on what is now Railroad Avenue. for the history of the Valley. “I think it’s very cool we had three theaters in a relatively small community,” Lake said. “To me that shows it was a huge community draw that so many people were able to go and sustain three theaters. Of course the Depression hit and two of them closed, but I think it’s really significant that within two miles of each other there were three theaters. It’s really rare that there is a historic theater intact today and we are lucky to have that in our community.”

Fall City creates historical signs

Courtesy Photo

Sample sign for Neighbor-Bennett House, built in 1904. The Fall City Historical Society has begun an extensive effort to provide historic signs for many locations in town. A template has been designed, for overall cohesiveness of the signage, and development of signs for the Fall City Masonic Hall and the NeighborBennett House, both on the National Register of

Historic Places, is under way. Each sign will include a QR code, the familiar pattern seen many places these days, allowing mobile devices to access information. On the sign, the code will link to a more extensive report on the location, with additional background and images. These reports

will reside on the Fall City Historical Society’s website, www.fallcity.org/historical. The historical society is also considering making site information available in a GPS-linked format for mobile devices, such as the Stqry app. This project, and many other programs from the society are supported in part by King County Heritage 4Culture. Walking tours will be offered soon. When a wide range of background information has been assembled, an updated Fall City Walking Tour will be made available, both in printed and digital form. Volunteers are being recruited to serve as tour guides at times. Another guided tour, of the Fall City Cemetery, is also being developed. Coming up The annual Fall City Calendar for 2016 is now available, the 10th in the series and the second in full color. It is available for purchase at the Farmhouse Market and will be featured with other ‘History in your Hand’ items at the Fall City Holiday Market Dec. 5 at Chief Kanim Middle School. See www.fallcityhistorical.org for a preview of the calendar and instructions for ordering by mail.

Snoqualmie Valley Museum got its start at school

North Bend is now home to the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum. By EVAN PAPPAS Staff Reporter

One of the oldest institutions in the Valley is also in charge of preserving its history. The Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum was started in the early 1900s by Ada Hill, a school teacher in North Bend. Cristy Lake, assistant director at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum, explained that through Hill’s work, the Valley gained an important organization. “She started collecting things from the pioneers who were the parents of the kids she had in her class and over time the collection grew,” Lake said. “By the ‘60s it was filling the whole classroom and the school. The baby boom had happened and the school needed the classroom space so they asked Hill to remove the

stuff from the school and at that point, the historical society was formed to help take care of the collection.” Since then the museum has been obtaining historical artifacts through a mixture of purposeful collecting and donations from people in the Valley. Lake said that over time the museum’s collection has narrowed in subject to better focus on the region it is in. “Originally the museum had a much broader mission that it does now. We focus specifically on Snoqualmie Valley now,” Lake said. “When Hill started the collection it was Washington State and Pacific Northwest pioneer history. So parts of our collection are better represented than other parts.”
