Editor’s note: School districts are gearing up for ballot measures seeking hundreds of millions of dollars. In February, three area districts will be asking property owners to provide dollars to significantly upgrade their public facilities. Each is hoping to follow the lead of the Enumclaw School District, which had a proposal authorized a year ago. This week, we look at the proposal being floated by the small Carbonado School District. Last week’s issue covered the White River bond proposal; next up is an article about the Sumner School District request.

iming to put modern touches on a historic building, the Carbonado School District will be asking voters to approved a bond issue early next year. Sitting snugly inside the close-knit Carbonado community, the district has not gone after bond money for a generation. Unlike most districts, Carbonado has supported its operations – educating kids in kindergarten through eighth grade – with state funding and traditional maintenance and operation levies. But times have dramatically changed since 1986 when the

Enumclaw council to consider minimal property tax hike Public hearing on property tax scheduled for Nov. 9 City Council meeting By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
Property taxes in Enumclaw will increase minimally in 2016, according to figures detailed in the city’s annual budgeting process. A memo from the city’s Finance Department indicates the owner of property – including land and home – valued at $300,000 can expect a yearly increase of about $10. Figures are all preliminary at this point, as the seven members of the Enumclaw City Council will not
finalize a 2016 municipal budget until their meeting of Dec. 8. As a starting point, cities throughout Washington with a population greater than 10,000, like Enumclaw, can bump their property tax rate in one of two ways – either by 1 percent or the amount of the Implicit Price Deflater of the previous year’s levy. Cities, by state code, are limited to the lesser of those two options. Looking at 2016, the IPD is .251 percent, so city administration is looking to dip into some of its “banked” levy capacity. Allowed a 1 percent increase each year, the city hasn’t always taken the full increase; when economic times were good, only part of the allowable increase was taken and the remainder was “banked” for another day. Starting with last year’s collection and adding the IPD and some banked capacity, then figuring in new construction in the city, the city administration has determined prop-

t’s a literal race against time – capturing the perfect photo at magic hour. If you’re lucky, you are in the right place at the right time. If you’re a pro, you get to the right place 10 minutes early. And if you’re an amateur, you get there an hour early without gloves and have to wait for the magical moments before the sun sets. Fall is upon us, which means fewer weekend hiking trips for the summer adventurers out there. But, colder months mean clearer skies in some cases, and that means great opportunities for some stellar photos. You’ve seen the photos that look like the stars are all shooting in a circular motion, right? The ones that look like paintings rather than photographs? Well those, I assure you, were not taken with a cell phone camera. Most were likely not even taken with a point and shoot camera (the smaller, compact version of the big ones). They were all probably taken with a single-lens reflex camera – or SLR. Digital SLRs are becoming more and more popular to the average consumer, with lighter weight ones and more user-friendly models. Choosing one, however, can be a daunting process.
It’s all pretty technical. Frame rates, ISOs, megapixels, sensors, and then there’s also the lens that may or may not be included. With advanced technology coming out, it’s actually quite possible for some point and shoot cameras (the ones with no detachable lens) to do the job of some of the beginner level DSLRs. But, you have to know what to look for. If you want to shoot mainly landscape photos, with the ability to manually adjust your settings for those picturesque star trails photos, there are a few things you need to look for when choosing a camera for your adventure. First, image stabilization. In all things camera-related, look for optical image stabilization as opposed to digital – the same rule applies to zoom. Second, how many megapixels does the camera boast? (or how big can the photos be printed at a high resolution). For most landscape photography, anything less than 15 MP (megapixels) won’t get the job done properly. The third most important aspect to a point and shoot camera is the maximum aperture. A high aperture setting (at least f/8.0) is ideal for landscape photography. This ensures everything in the frame will be in focus, no matter how far away it is – except planets obviously.
Aperture works like your eyes: The smaller the number, the wider the lens (or pupil) will open, the shallower the depth of field will be. The larger the number, the narrower the lens will open, and the longer the depth of field (and the less light it will let in). Think about when you go to a dark movie theater. The moment you step outside, you are blinded by the sun and it takes a few moments to adjust. In the movie, your pupils were wide open to take in as much light as possible. When you leave, your pupils haven’t adjusted, so they let in more light than necessary. Once they shrink back to normal, you can see just fine in the bright sun. Aperture’s best friend is definitely the shutter speed. You have to be able to set these two independent of each other in order to achieve the results you want – especially on the star trails photos. When you are shooting landscape photography, a higher aperture (also referred to as f-stop) is needed. This means there will be less light, so the shutter has to be open longer to let in enough light to properly expose the photograph you’re taking. A slow shutter speed (at least 60 seconds) will let you capture some pretty amazing shots on your adventures. To put this in perspective, the shot above was taken with a DSLR
Capturing magic hour can be as easy as pointing and shooting. The early dark sky of the fall and winter months allows creative types to branch out. Photo by Rebecca Gourley with ISO 100, an aperture of f/8.0 and a shutter speed of 4 seconds. My DSLR can actually go up to f/29 and I can open the shutter for an infinite amount of time (using a remote control and “bulb” mode), but I wanted to simulate what a decent point and shoot can do. If you can find a point and shoot with bulb mode, that would be ideal for those star trails photos. Feel free to experiment with the settings a lot. You may be surprised what works and what doesn’t.
Other equipment
Optical image stabilization will only get you so far. For anything longer than a shutter speed of 1/30
second, you need to have a tripod. Or, since you’ll be outside, a sturdy and semi-flat rock will do. Anything that won’t move and can hold your camera up will suffice. A tripod will just be more flexible. Rocks can get heavy. You don’t need an incredibly fancy tripod either. Spend your money on the camera itself, not the thing that holds it up. You can buy small tripods for less than $10 or spend your life savings on one, it’s really up to you. Patience is also something you need to come prepared with – especially shooting star trails photos.

Sumner not to reopen recycling center, keep trail head spacious By Ray Still Reporter
The city of Sumner’s recycling center at the end of State Street will not be re-opening as planned. The center was closed mid-June while the Wastewater Treatment Facility was expanded. The center was planned to be re-opened sometime in the fall. Instead, the city decided to keep the recycling center closed in order to give more parking space to visitors of the Sumner Link Trail and residents picking up their Bonney Good Sumner Grow soil amendment. “Looking at the parking lot, looking at the trail being finished and that being more of a trailhead, it didn’t make sense to bring the recycling center back,” said Sumner Communications Director Carmen Palmer. “Having that trail is a huge priority for the entire town, so having good access to the trail

actually moves us forward.” However, current construction means the kiosk for the Sumner Grow is still temporarily closed.
Alternate locations
Sumner residents can still recycle their newspaper, cardboard and glass at the recycling center off East Main Street in Puyallup, approximately a mile and a half away from the old State Street center. There is also a DM Disposal facility on 70th Ave East, off of Levy Road in Fife. This site closes at 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, and is sometimes open on weekends. Bonney Lake also offers two glass recycling areas; one at Allan Yorke Park and the other at the Justice and Municipal Center.
Fall Clean Up
Unrelated to the closed recycling center is the annual Fall Clean Up, when DM Disposal takes extra garbage, yard waste, and
even old appliances away for free. For residents to request DM Disposal to take their extra trash away, they must affix official Fall Clean Up coupons onto trash bags or appliances. The coupons will be mailed out to Sumner residents, but can also be downloaded on the Sumner website at http:// ci.sumner.wa.us/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/FallClean-Up-2015.pdf. DM Disposal accepts up to three extra bags or trash containers up to 32 gallons each, with a officially designated coupon on one of the bags or containers. The company will also accept the same amount of extra yard waste. Extra trash and yard waste will be collected on Nov. 10. DM Disposal will only remove one old appliance left out of the curb, and will pick up the appliance between Nov. 9 - 13.

SUIT FROM 1 denied that each defendant involved in the SR 410 project is responsible for the death of the Ellis family, and specifically denies the company was negligent or that it caused injury. Staton, Hamilton, WHH Nisqually, McGee and the city of Bonney Lake have declined to comment on the suit. The Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office has not released a decision concerning any criminal prosecution in the case. In October the state Department of Labor and Industries levied fines against four of the five construction companies involved in the project.
What is a wrongful death suit?
There are two kind of suits in cases like this, according to Kevin Sullivan, the attorney who represents the plaintiffs in this case. The first type of claim is a wrongful death suit. “That is for the losses suffered by the survivors of the decedent (dead person),” Sullivan said. “The entire
TAX FROM 1 erty tax collections for 2016 will increase to a little more than $1.8 million. That means Enumclaw property owners will pay approximately $1.54 in property tax for every $1,000 of

In the statute, those would be what you would call ‘first tier beneficiaries.’ Next level beneficiaries are parents of the deceased.” According to Sullivan, parents of adult decedents can only collect damages if they can prove to the court they were financially dependent on the deceased. The only surviving family member that meets these requirements is Hess, who starting living with her daughter and Josh in 2013, rent-free. Beginning in 2014, when the family bought a home in Bonney Lake, Hess started paying $500 in rent and the family paid all other house expenses, according to Hess’ declaration. Currently, Hess is living with Brown and his wife, and wrote in her declaration that she still cannot financially support herself. In addition to wrongful death suits, families of the deceased can also claim damages under the survival statute, no matter their financial status. “Under the statutes, (this covers) the funeral expenses, their pre-death conscious pain and suffering, and the
net-loss accumulations to their estate,” Sullivan said. According to Sullivan, funeral expenses were minimal because they were picked up by the Ellis’ church, Eastpointe Foursquare Church. Additionally, there are no pre-death conscious pain and suffering costs, because the Ellis family died instantly when the concrete barrier fell on top of their truck’s cab. This only leaves the value of the Ellis’ estates in question. Josh, Vanessa and Hudson each have their own, but related, estate. “What is the value of their estates? That’s a battle between different experts,” said Sullivan. “Work-life expectancy is one variable. The second is the discount rate that is applied to the income stream. The third is the personal accumulation rate of the individual decedent. All of those are in controversy, which they normally are.” Sullivan declined discussing the specific monetary amounts the plaintiffs are looking for, but said, “The family trusts that the jury will do the right thing.” The trial is currently set for Aug. 25, 2016 in the courtroom of Pierce County Judge Ronald Culpepper.
assessed property value. The owner of property valued at $300,000 paid about $452 this year and can expect to pay approximately $462 in 2016. The city’s property tax levy will be the topic of a public hearing during the council’s Nov. 9 meeting. The public
is welcome to attend and address the council with questions or concerns. It will be the second public hearing on the proposed property tax. A third and final public hearing is planned for the council session that begins at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 23.

Holidays a prime time for mutt manners The holidays are just around the corner and now is a perfect time to work on your dog’s manners. Greeting holiday guests calmly and politely can be quite the challenge for many dogs and a potential source of embarrassment for their owners. No one wants their dog knocking over a friend or family member. So how do we help Fido learn to greet guests like a perfect host? To begin, it is important to understand that your dog is probably really excited to meet new people. To set your dog up for success, make sure you help him burn off any excess energy. A tired dog is a good dog. For many dogs, a calm walk is not enough exercise to tucker them out. Try games that encourage your dog to run (like fetch). When you have drained your dog’s ener-
gy, it is time to start working on holiday manners. The best way to get your dog to greet guests with all four feet on the floor is to teach him that sitting is the proper way to say hello. A dog that is sitting is not jumping up. Start by reviewing the sit command with your dog. If your dog does not know sit, you can quickly teach him by putting a treat in front of his nose and moving your hand up toward the ceiling and slightly backward (toward the back of the dog’s head). When a dog’s nose moves in this way, they will naturally sit. When your dog sits, give him lots of praise and reward him with the treat. Review this command with your dog until he sits consistently on cue. The next step is to practice with another person. At first, it is best to practice with someone the dog already knows. This
Follow tips to keep chickens healthy, laying all winter When winter approaches, you probably take steps to prepare your home - insulating water pipes, sealing windows and doors, or covering and storing outdoor furniture. If you’ve also been following the backyard chicken trend - and enjoying fresh eggs all summer long - you’ll want to take steps to care for your flock when
the weather cools. And if you’ve been considering getting some chickens, but think you have to put it off until spring, think again - you can still start a flock, or keep an existing one thriving, and laying, throughout winter. You’re part of a growing trend if you already have a flock; nearly one in five people would be more

makes it less exciting for the dog. To start, instruct the other person to stand across the room. Put your dog on a leash and ask him to sit. When he is sitting calmly, ask the other person to approach. If your dog gets up, instruct the other person to ignore him and walk away. Ask your dog to sit again. Repeat as necessary until your dog can sit politely for the greeting. If your dog is struggling with this step, you may need to practice sit with the other person in the room before they attempt to greet him. When your dog can maintain a sit while the other person approaches, then he is ready to greet! Instruct the other person to give your dog plenty of attention and praise. This is his reward for sitting. If at any point the dog gets up, instruct the other person to

Interest with parents is even higher, as 27 percent would consider raising chickens with their families if they had more information on the hobby. The chicken experts at Tractor Supply Co. offer some advice for keeping a flock healthy and producing through winter months. Anyone raising chickens this winter should focus on four areas of care:

Airflow is key
Ensuring adequate ventilation is a critical component of cold weather chicken care. Overly warm coops can not only interfere with chickens’ tolerance for cold weather, but can also lead to a buildup of humidity, which creates an environment for harmful mold to grow. Cleaning the coop regularly helps combat mold, while encouraging airflow with screens placed on coop windows can facilitate airflow during the day. But remember to close those windows at night when temperatures fall.

be safer and happier - and more inclined to keep laying eggs. The best way to keep chickens warm in winter is to keep their coop dry and comfortable. Wet living conditions can lead to disease and death within days. You can use tarps to help keep water and dampness out of your coop. The general rule is that coops need to be slightly above freezing to keep chickens happy. Keeping your coop above 35 degrees will protect your chickens from cold weather and keep their drinking water from freezing. Only if the temperature falls below 35 degrees should you consider purchasing a heater or heat producing light to provide extra warmth.

A dog that is sitting cannot jump. With enough practice, your dog will learn how to greet holiday guests politely. If you do not have time to prepare your dog for guests, or if you find that your dog just can’t contain his excitement on the big day, don’t worry. Put your dog behind a baby gate or exercise pen until he his calm. When the dog can sit calmly on the other side of the gate, then he can be released to greet your guests.

Don’t put off cancer screening
It was the most gut-wrenching email I have ever received. My mom went in for her annual screening and the results were iffy. After another couple tests, we found out she had breast cancer. The prognosis was good, though. Which is more than most people can say. If there is ever an “earliest moment” cancer can be detected in a human being, this was it. For that, we are forever grateful. I’ve always been a full supporter of Rebecca Gourley, women — and men Reporter — getting annual screenings for cancer. But now, more than ever, I know the importance. Because of the early detection my mom received, she didn’t have to go through chemotherapy. She did, however, opt to do several rounds of radiation. Coincidentally, she finished her last treatment last month, the month of awareness for the thing she just got irradiated from her body. Even though she couldn’t bare to talk about it at first — hence the email — my mom now uses her early diagnosis to remind people to get regular screenings. “Do not put it off,” she said in one of her reminders. “I am a perfect example.” However, “putting it off” is the new recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force. The group — which is made up of 16 volunteer experts in prevention, evidence-based medicine and primary care — recently came out with a draft of their

Don’t attack freedom I dispute the premise(s) as stated in “Freedom without order is just chaos” as stated by Richard Elfers (CourierHerald, Oct. 21). To denigrate freedom and conclude “any virtue becomes evil without limits” is both naive and wrong and another example of the liberal/progressive concept that controlling human virtues is the responsibility of government and that individuals need “intervention” in order to comply with government edict and benevolence. If you look up the definition of freedom you will find the following definitions: 1. moral excellence; goodness; righteousness. 2. conformity of one’s life and conduct to moral and ethical principles; uprightness; rectitude. How can this be construed as chaos? Only a liberal would be so arrogant to believe that these virtues have to be controlled by the government.

Associating freedom with the Umpqua murders is ridiculous; this may come from the looney idea that it was the gun that killed the people, not the mentally deranged person who committed the horrendous act. We are a nation of laws and the purpose of laws is to provide a “system of rules that a particular community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties.” Let’s not attack the positive virtues such as freedom but enforce the laws that protect citizens from aberrant behavior of those in society who would harm the freedom-seeking individuals who are exercising our rights as given to us by our Constitution (the American template and foundation for all laws). Our framers would surely cringe at the concept that freedom would be disparaged in such a manner as this editorial nonsense! David Asplund Enumclaw

I never received a response. Since then I have had contact with many very courteous and helpful people from the Roads Department. Prior to 2011, we did not have a road tier system. Everyone in King County was able to express their road safety concerns to the roads department. And everyone was able to have their safety concerns (mowing, de-icing, fixing potholes, cleaning out ditches, etc.) addressed as money was available. All of us pay taxes and all of us had a voice in the road safety conditions. When developing the road tier system, someone must have picked out dead-end roads on a map and decided that those roads should not have any service. Those areas included New Horizons, Fairway Hills and our own Glacier Vista – vibrant neighborhood communities in Enumclaw.

Wilkeson lands fire fighting grant Wilkeson’s fire station is among 45 grant recipients of Georgia-Pacific’s Bucket Brigade program this year. The department will receive $4,000 to help fund equipment needs.
The grant money will help purchase several new sets of full-body protective gear, which cost more than $1,600 each. The station, which is staffed by volunteers provided under an agreement
with the city of Buckley and town of Carbonado, has not had any protective gear of its own. “While the arrangement with Buckley and Carbonado has greatly enhanced fire protection and EMS in Wilkeson, we still lack the funds to pur-

resources. These views are based upon painful experiences with people who take advantage of kindness and naïveté. As a landlord I learned that some renters would take advantage of me if I were too trusting. Democrats, on the other hand, tend to hold on to hope about the perfectibility of human beings. What is needed is more education to train, discipline and perfect the human mind to higher levels of proper behavior. Those who act in a negative manner do so because that has been the example they have grown up with. Proper role models and mentors will help any person to improve behavior. Our beliefs and experiences with human nature shape our perceptions. And those perceptions shape our behavior toward others. Our beliefs on this issue
place all of us somewhere on a continuum of good and evil in our dealings with others. None of us can escape having an opinion about this topic. Personally, I’m not as optimistic as Google, nor as pessimistic as many conservatives. I have helped raise several children and have come to the view that all humans are selfcentered and self-absorbed as a default. That self-centeredness is neither good nor evil. It just is. We need to take care of our needs and, at the same time, care for others. Finding the balance and the wisdom to know when to do which is a struggle we deal with our entire lives. As we age, humans learn to control those self-centered tendencies. We can be taught to care for others as much as we care for ourselves. We can also
realize that caring for others is really a way of helping ourselves. Selfishness can be a good thing in that context. As we mature, we are better able to maintain that tension between selfabsorption and concern for others. Times of great stress demonstrate to others and to us how mature, or how childish, we still are deep down. It takes a lifetime of making choices between the two perspectives to set our characters. As Socrates noted nearly 2,500 years ago, “an unexamined life is one not worth living.” So not being aware of the two roads we all face on a minute-byminute, day-by-day and week-by-week basis makes it less likely that we will ever become the kind of employees that Google and the rest of the world are searching for.
get screening on an individualized basis, such as if they have family history. The task force claims its recommendations are evidence-based, and they may very well be. But, anecdotally, I can’t imagine what would have happened to the cancer in her body had my mom had waited another year to get a screening. I’m not a doctor, but I don’t think it would’ve been as early of a stage, one year down the road. My advice — albeit it’s
not evidence-based — is to listen to your body and get screenings as often and as early as you need to. Many insurance companies pay for the first screening mammogram of each
calendar year, no matter your age. If you don’t have insurance, there are often specific programs designed to help women pay for their screenings at local facilities.
for more than 40 years now, there is an advantage to taking this perspective. If human nature is good, then it’s my job as a teacher to be more patient with human frailties. Students tend to live up to adult expectations. Political parties are based upon differing beliefs about human nature. Republicans, being conservative, tend to view human nature negatively. Discipline is required to overcome our selfish natures. Punishment for wrongdoing is absolutely necessary in order to maintain order and respect for authority. Those Republicans who manage others see the need for safeguards and security to protect property and

LETTERS FROM 8 In Glacier Vista we have approximately 60 homes. We are bordered by the White River, Highway 410 and farmland that cannot be developed. We have small children playing here, school buses ferrying students to and from school, delivery trucks and garbage and recycling trucks on our roads. We have been very concerned about being unable to have our ditches cleaned out, having no mowing (probably less than an hour’s worth), multiple potholes creating unsafe conditions for all of
us and being denied potential de-icing on hilly roads in stormy weather. Whenever we call the Roads Department, they have to tell us that we aren’t Tier 1 or 2 roads, so our concerns will not be addressed. I would like you abolish the tier system and revert back to the previous system of giving service to every taxpayer. I trust the Roads Department to do their best to prioritize and meet everyone’s needs, considering the amount of money available. Thank you for your consideration. Mary O’Connor Enumclaw

As the season of Thanksgiving approaches, we would do well to pause and take time to reflect: What have been the blessings of the day – the week – month – year? How is my life richer in “intangibles” like patience? Love? Peace? Joy? If those qualities are in short supply, where does one acquire more? They are not sold at the local market or grocery store. (There really are some things that money cannot buy!) But they are more valuable than most tangible items we can purchase. The source of these all good gifts is the Creator God, the one who loves us and fills us with the Holy Spirit. Then these Christlike attributes begin to grow in us.

tered orientation in life is replaced by a Christ-centered one. So I am no longer the center of my universe, but Christ is. As I step out of the center and allow Christ to be the one calling the shots, I discover great riches as I experience growth in love, joy, peace and patience, which all can lead to a greater sense of gratitude. Recently a local church had this message on their reader board: “Be Greatful for your blessings!” While the school teacher in me says “They mean “grateful”! I love the fact that we can indeed, be “full” of gratitude, for the “great” number of blessings that we enjoy. So, be patient, God isn’t finished with us yet! Meanwhile, be grateful for all God’s gifts, tangible and intangible.

degree of patience exhibited was directly related to the amount of gratitude any individual felt (reported by Jessica Stillman, “The Cure for Impatience— Gratitude,” Inc. 4-7-14). I think that is an interesting correlation: gratitude and patience. Biblically, patience is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22). Patience, then, is an outgrowth of Christ-like character that is made evident in our attitude and behavior. What would patience look like? A calmness in the midst of a “storm”? A willingness to persevere and “hang in there” during a time of change? Exercising restraint and self-control (another fruit of the Spirit!) when a situation is not to our liking?

Soon we shall enter into the holiday season, during which life has the potential to become even more hectic and busy than “usual.” Exactly during such times we might benefit from slowing down and savoring the gifts God gives. That, in part, is what Thanksgiving is all about.

Local teams take handful of fall championships By Kevin Hanson Senior Writer
Area high schools were often at the top of the league standings during this fall athletic season. Teams from the immediate area – meaning Enumclaw, Bonney Lake and Sumner in the South Puget Sound League 3A and White River in the SPSL 2A – either won, or shared, 11 championships during the
campaign now headed into postseason play. First-place efforts were turned in by the following: Cross country (boys): Bonney Lake dominated the SPSL 3A, taking the title with a perfect 7-0 mark. Cross country (girls): Enumclaw went 7-0 to win the SPSL 3A. Football: Sumner High took the 3A championship with a 7-0 league record (9-0 overall). The Spartans head into the
postseason ranked No. 4 in the state. Golf (boys): Enumclaw High went 12-0 to again capture the SPSL 3A title, while White River finished 13-1 to tie Fife for 2A honors. For EHS, it was the fourth league championship in a row. Golf (girls): White River went 10-0 in league and overall to take the 2A title. It was the second year in a row the Hornet girls finished undefeated. Soccer: There were two local title winners, as White River captured the SPSL
2A championship and Sumner finished 13-1 to win the 3A division. White River finished the regular season Monday, following press deadlines; the outcome would not impact the league championship as the Hornets were 13-0 heading into the final contest.

Area cross country runners are headed to American Lake Golf Course Saturday for the Westside Classic, a district meet that whittled the field for this weekend’s state championships. The state meet for all classifications takes place Saturday at the traditional site, Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. Mother Nature provided no favors for those competing in the West Central District meet, as heavy rain, wind and cool fall temperatures were the order of the day. Adding to the intrigue were the accompanying mud and standing water on the course. The following is a rundown of local results.

EHS, White River conclude regular season with losses
Enumclaw, White River set for Week 10 football games
Two of the area’s four high school football teams have qualified for postseason play, leaving the others to square off in “Week 10” contests. The annual Week 10 games come at the conclusion of the regular season and are nonleague affairs, giving prep players a final week of competition. Locally, Sumner High captured the South Puget Sound League 3A championship and this week begins postseason play. Bonney Lake won Friday to also qualify for the playoffs. Those who will wrap up their 2015 campaigns with Week 10 tilts are: • Enumclaw: the Hornets will face North Thurston High at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5. The contest against the Narrows League 3A opponent will be at South Sound Stadium in Lacey. North Thurston won big in its regular-season finale and finished the regular season with a record of 3-4 in league, 4-5 overall. • White River: Week 10 brings a home contest against the Decatur Gators of the South Puget Sound League 4A’s Northwest Division. The Gators finished last in the fourteam division with a record of 0-4 in league, 0-9 overall. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5, on the White River campus.

Orting 27, White River 21
A disappointing regular season ended on a sour note Friday night as the White River High Hornets were defeated 27-21 at Orting. The loss put the wraps on a regular season in which White River won just a single game, the lone victory coming against a Clover Park squad that finished winless. The final regular season tally was 1-6 in South Puget Sound League 2A play, 1-8 overall. Like most teams falling short of
making the playoffs, White River ends its campaign this week with a Thursday night “Week 10” contest. For details, see separate story on this page. The Hornets fell behind 14-0 Friday when Orting scored the only touchdown of the first quarter, then added another in the second. White River responded in gametying fashion, however, first getting a scoring pass from Ryan Redford to Ethan Clay. The Hornets’ second TD came on a Justin Tidwell sprint to the end zone from 25 yards out. Alex Morris was good on a pair of extra-point kicks and the Hornets
and Cards were deadlocked at 14. Orting scored two more rushing touchdowns – one in the second quarter and one in the third – to account for its 27 points. White River tallied the game’s final touchdown in the final period with Tidwell again doing the honors, this time on a short pass from Redford.

SUPERINTENDENT MESSAGE The challenge of properly balancing work and life, what some refer to as work-life balance, is a finely tuned act many of us try to achieve. Administrators, teachers, parents, and our students, need to strike a delicate balance between busy lives (work) and relaxation (play). Achieving that balance brings satisfaction, equilibrium and makes us feel whole. It’s a sweet spot when we achieve it. Honestly, I’m still working at it! Work-life balance is a phrase we often hear but is it possible with all of the demands of our modern culture? Is achieving a balance in our daily routine actually attainable? Renowned author and speaker, Jon Gordon, takes a fresh look at work-life balance, explaining it is realistically about finding a doable rhythm in life, as opposed to a day to day balance. He believes there is a “time to work hard – and a time to rest.” Further, he advises to work towards balancing the scales of work-life on a big-picture basis, rather than a short term timeline. I like the way he compares the balances to seasons: there is a season to dive into work with both feet, and a season to recharge one’s battery through calm and rest. Sometimes, we have no option but to dig in and solve a difficult problem. For example, our district is hard at work finding immediate solutions to accommodate the growing number of students in schools and planning ahead for the growth that is hitting our area. November 18, the School Board votes on a resolution for putting a capital projects bond on the February 2016 ballot. Bond funding would allow the district to focus on the schools with the highest facility needs. Plan B is coming up with solutions to accommodate the growth while keeping class sizes low, and maintain facilities without extra funds. It’s a difficult puzzle to solve, and something we must plan for now. Additional portables and possible boundary changes are alternate solutions that the Bond Planning Committee is evaluating.

The work is intense and demanding right now. But as we move towards the beginning of the holiday season and celebrate Thanksgiving, it is my wish that you will set aside work to focus on a season of rest and rejuvenation with friends and family. As Sumner School District leaders, our hearts are filled with gratitude for excellent teachers, principals, support staff, bus drivers, facilities people and board members. We appreciate the support of our amazing communities, both Bonney Lake and Sumner. As we take time to focus on gratitude, we allow our hearts to be refreshed to come back and continue the important work of public education.

A GREAT PLACE TO LEARN!
FOR EVERY STUDENT, EVERY DAY, IN EVERY CLASSROOM READY! FOR KINDERGARTEN FALL REGISTRATION READY! For Kindergarten is a FREE program for parents and caregivers of children birth to age five. Developed by the National Children’s Reading Foundation and the Kennewick School District, READY! For Kindergarten is an educational program providing tools that help prepare children for Kindergarten and success in school. A happy and successful learning experience is the ultimate goal for new Kindergartners. Often parents wonder what a typical 5-year old knows, or should know, the first day of school. There are readiness skills called Kindergarten Targets. They are not requirements, but learning goals. Children who are taught these skills at home get off to a great start at school. They start ahead and stay ahead, year after year.
COLLEGE AND CAREER FAIR Families of students from both Bonney Lake and Sumner high schools can research local community and technical colleges, universities and other post-secondary options at the annual College and Career Fair. Students and families have the opportunity to talk one-on-one with representatives from universities, community and technical colleges, apprenticeships, military and community organizations. Hear from local business on planning for careers in specific industries and the road to follow to gain employment in those careers. There will be sessions on paying for post-secondary education with financial aid and scholarships, information on NCAA eligibility, entrance requirements, and the College Bound program for high school juniors. November 10 • 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. • Bonney Lake High School Commons
PREPARING FOR WINTER WEATHER Winter weather brings road and driving conditions that might result in school delays or closures. Road conditions in the valley and the hill can be very different but still impact the entire district. Safety for your child is our primary concern.

CAPITAL PROJECTS BOND INFORMATION:
BONDS ARE FOR BUILDING, LEVIES ARE FOR LEARNING Bonds are used for capital projects—the construction of new buildings, major renovations or land purchases and are financed for an extended period of time. The last time local voters passed a school bond was in February of 2007. Every project promised as part of that bond was completed on time—and under budget. A total of 6 schools were identified during that time as having critical facility needs. Four schools were modernized to update major mechanical systems, improve wiring and technology infrastructure to support computers in the classroom and bring building up to all current energy, seismic, fire and life safety building codes. Lakeridge Middle School was replaced to reduce overcrowding and Sumner High School received new heating, ventilation and air cooling system to improve air quality. As families continue to move into the Sumner School District, we need to plan for future schools and new students. Currently developers contribute impact fees for each new single-family house built. Impact fees fund the purchase of portable classrooms to accommodate increased student enrollment, but the fees are not sufficient to cover the cost of new construction or facility modernization. School district bonds are different than other taxes: voters approve a total amount of money. If property values go up, the rate per thousand goes down. School modernizations are not just a cosmetic fix. These projects will extend the useful life of our facilities for years to come.

FOOTBALL FROM 13 son with a 21-17 loss to Auburn Mountainview at Auburn Memorial Stadium. All that’s left for the Hornets in the 2015 campaign is a Week 10 game; see separate story on page 13 for details.
Enumclaw concluded the regular season with a 2-5 mark in South Puget Sound League 3A play and went 3-6 overall. The Hornets opened the season with a nonleague victory over White River in the Battle of the Bridge, then added league wins over Peninsula and Auburn Riverside. Thursday’s loss saw Enumclaw jump on the scoreboard first, thanks to a Garrett Berquist field goal. Auburn Mountainview (5-2 league, 7-2 overall) was operating at less than full speed, with standout quarterback Gresch Jensen – who will play college ball at the University of Montana – on the sidelines due to injury. In his absence,

the Lions counted on running back Bitner Wilson, who scored on a pair of first-quarter, red-zone runs to put the hosts on top 14-3. The Hornets outscored Mountainview in the second quarter, but it wasn’t enough to secure a win. Connor Pierce sliced the Lion lead when he scored on a 7-yard run, but Auburn Mountainview answered with the game-winner when Wilson took off on a 25-yard TD jaunt. Pierce scored in the game’s closing minutes on a short touchdown blast to account for the final margin. Wilson was the difference-maker in the contest, cracking the 100-yard barrier on 20 carries.

Spartans and Panthers head into playoffs By Sarah Brenden Reporter
The regular season ended with the undefeated Sumner Spartans winning its ninth game of the season Friday. The Spartans beat the Auburn Riverside Ravens 42-7. The Ravens took an early lead with less than four minutes remaining in the first quarter. The early touchdown for Riverside would be its only score of the night. Sumner’s first score came before the end of the first quarter. The Spartans trailed the Ravens 7-6 after a 30 yard touchdown pass from soph-
omore quarterback Luke Ross to junior running back Connor Wedington. The point after was unsuccessful. Sumner scored two more times before the half. A 12 yard touchdown pass from Ross to junior receiver Tyson Rainwater added six. The Spartans went for two but were unsuccessful converting. A fumble was returned by senior outside line backer Kolby Nikolaisen for 22 yards added another six to Sumner’s score. The point after by junior kicker Nick Philips was good and the Spartans led

However, once fall molt is over, many birds won’t start naturally laying until January or February, unless light is added to the coop. As a result, supplemental lighting is vital to keeping your hens laying. Use multiple lights to achieve an even distribution of light throughout the year. Incandescent lights are generally best. To encourage chickens to lay, set your light to a timer that goes on one hour before sunrise and turns off one hour after sunset. Generally, a 40-watt incandescent bulb with a reflector positioned 7 feet above the ground will light about 200 square feet.
Providing your flock with an adequate diet will benefit egg fertility once breeding season begins in the spring. That being said, your chickens’ dietary needs will change during fall and winter. In autumn, begin feeding them a highdensity, vitamin-rich feed. The additional vitamins will help provide the nutrients birds need in order to cope with colder temperatures. A good option is Purina Layena Plus Omega3 SunFresh Recipe Poultry Feed, which is made with whole grain and flaxseed and is designed to provide enhanced nutrients in your flock’s eggs. Water is the single most important feeding aspect for a flock. If enough fresh water
is not available, your chickens won’t eat, which will result in loss of egg production. As always, when working in the coop and handling birds, be sure to remember
safe handling practices to prevent the spread of disease, such as washing your hands with soap and water and cleaning the tools used to care for your birds.

FURNITURE THEFT: Officers were dispatched on Oct. 19 to a burglary of a house under construction. The reporting party told officers that kitchen cabinets that were being stored in the garage were notice stolen when workers, who were going to install the cabinets, noticed they were gone. No doors or windows were damaged. STOLEN STOVE: On Oct. 20, officers were contacted by a home-owner that an electric stove was stolen in a house she rents out. Officers were told the female renter of the house said she didn’t know what happened to the stove. The reporting party said she found out later the renter subletted the space, but would not tell her who the space was rented to. Officers were unable to contact the renter of the space, who has moved out. ATTEMPTED RETURN: Officers were dispatched to a Bonney Lake general store for a previous shoplift. Officers shows a video of a man placing cosmetics into a handbasket, then leaving the store without attempting to pay for the items. The next day, a female entered the store and attempted to return the stolen items. The return was declined because the female did not have a receipt and had an expired ID.

The Compleat Home Gardener
Three Ways to Save Geraniums
Two Ways to Save Fuchsias
The easy way is to hang or place the basket near a protected corner of the house and drape them loosely with bubble wrap, using clothes pins to secure the plastic in several spots on the rim of the pot. Help them go dormant by holding back on water and fertilizer until you see new growth in late spring. A more reliable way to coax your fuchsia into a second year of blooms is to cut back the entire hanging basket to 6-inch stumps. Next, place this butchered basket in a cold but not freezing spot or dig a hole one foot deep, deposit the basket and cover it with fallen leaves. Place a tarp on top to mark the spot and keep out the rain. Unearth the dormant
plants in March and bring them indoors to grow near a sunny window until all danger of frost has passed. You do not need to take any heroic measures to save hardy fuchsias (Fuchsia magellanica). These are the shrubby fucshias with tiny leaves and small flowers. Just leave then in the ground and resist the urge to prune back their woody tops until you see new growth in June.
Two ways to save canna, begonia and dahlias
The safest way to recoup your investment from plants that sprout from tender bulbs is to cut off the stems at soil level this month and dig and remove the tuber from the soil. Shake off any soil and allow the root to dry a bit indoors
for 24 hours. Then place the root inside a brown paper bag (plastic holds too much moisture) and store in a cool garage, basement or crawl space. The hard part is remembering where you put the bulbs and when to replant them. Mark the calendar now so you can replant begonias and cannas indoors in pots during the month of April for setting outdoors in late May. Dahlias can be planted back into the soil outdoors in early May. An easier way to save tender bulbs if you are a gambling gardener is to leave them in the ground or in their pots and cover the newly cut crown of each plant with sword fern fronds or a section of tarp. By keeping out the rain and snow your tender bulbs can

The beginning of November is your last chance to save tender bulbs and plants that need winter protection. There are many uncontrolled variables that go into a successful save, including how low the temperatures drop this winter, where you store your plants and even how much humidity is in the air. Look at this project as a fun experiment because you don’t have much to lose – even if your geraniums, fuchsia basket or cannas fail to make an encore appearance next summer you will still have time to visit your local nursery and replace failures with beautifully-grown greenhouse plants. If you are impatient for more color in the month of May these saves may not be for you – overwintered plants sometimes take until

district last went to patrons with a bond request. Now, following a process that began well over a year ago, Carbonado school boosters are asking the community to step up and provide the dollars that will keep the fivebuilding campus operating at contemporary levels. Voters will decide the bond proposal in February 2016. Passage will require a 60 percent show of support.
District is home to 180 students
The Carbonado School District has a deep, rich history, going back to the days when the community rivaled Tacoma in size. Workers in the company town sent their children to a system that boasted a high school that few remember; a new school building – the brick structure still the centerpiece of the district – was built in 1929. That building now houses sixth-, seventh- and eighthgrade classrooms, along with a gymnasium, outdated
CAPTURING FROM 3 Some of them were shot with a shutter speed of 15
pegged at $4.4 million. That number is misleading, though, as the state would pony up $2.65 million of the total, leaving district property owners on the hook for the remaining $1.75 million, a sum that would be collected during a 20-year span. Superintendent Scott Hubbard said bond organizers were determined to come up with a financial plan that would address the district’s needs without increasing the tax load for area residents. Carbonado property owners currently are paying for the bond that was used for construction of White River High School. The property tax assessment is $2.12 per $1,000 of property value and the bonds will be retired at the end of 2015, meaning the tax bill disappears. Should the Carbonado bond be approved in February, a new collection of $1.80 would be implemented. An important factor is the White River School District bond proposal that also will be on the February ballot. Through an agreement between the two districts, Carbonado property owners
restrooms and small administrative offices. Most students are housed in a series of portables: the building for first and second graders, as well as students with special needs, has been around since 1968; the portable home to fourth and fifth graders came on board in 1991; and the building now housing kindergarten and third grade was put in place in 1998. A building used for the district’s library and computer lab was built in 1989. The Dan Argo Gymnasium, which was constructed in the late 1930, is where students eat lunch and is used for physical education and music programs. None of the bond money is dedicated to that facility. The sprawling district is small in numbers but geographically large. It shares borders with the Orting and Eatonville districts, as well as neighboring White River. Directly to the east is Mount Rainier National Park.
How much is being sought?
On the February ballot, the Carbonado School District will ask voters to approve a bond request

It’s normal to feel loss when you care about someone who has Alzheimer’s disease. It’s also normal to feel guilty, abandoned and angry. It’s important to acknowledge these emotions and know that you may start to experience them as soon as you learn of the diagnosis.
How will the money be spent?
Hubbard is quick to term Carbonado’s plan as “modernization,” as there is no new construction planned. The town presently is limited due to water availability and there’s no housing boom in sight; so, there’s no need to increase school capacity. Nearly all of the work will take place in the main building. According to a fact sheet provided by the district, almost a dozen items will be addressed should the bond get voter approval. Most visible will be a transformation to the front of the building, where an awning stretches the length of the school and covers a concrete ramp that a slow shutter speed (30 seconds or more), to make some interesting art with a flashlight.

District is also proposing an M&O levy
Also on February’s ballot, the Carbonado School District will ask voters to renew the maintenance and operation levy last OK’d in 2012. Like other school districts, Carbonado counts on M&O money to continue with current offerings. The present levy provides 25 percent of the total operating budget for the district and pays for things like transportation, school maintenance projects, co-curricular offerings and some mandated by the state but not fully funded by Olympia. Hubbard is hesitant to attach dollars and cents to the coming M&O levy, instead emphasizing that it is a replacement levy without a tax increase. tion, clear dark sky.

The ramp was not part of the original building, so its removal is met with enthusiasm by the National Historic Register, which supports a return of buildings to their original appearance and limits what work can be done. The center section of the building is elevated from the rest, making access difficult. Construction would lower the office space and the basketball court that is home to special events. In addition, a lift will be installed so visitors can watch those events from a mezzanine. “My No. 1 priority is making the building ADA accessible,” Hubbard said, recalling a time when a mother couldn’t join the rest of her family for an event. Accommodations were quickly made, but she was separated from everyone else. Another priority is maintaining comfort for students and staff through upgrades to the heating system; also part of the plan is the addition of air conditioning, a luxury the building has never offered.

MESSAGE FROM JANEL The enthusiasm and creativity arcing across the Buckley Fire Hall Oct. 13 gave me goose bumps. It was electric to see and hear the 50 area residents, school parents and faculty members at the White River School District symposium brainstorm ideas for transforming Glacier Middle School into a contemporary learning environment and an activity hub for the community. Symposium participants were divided into eight small groups and tasked with playing architect; moving building pieces around a large, middle school site photo to test possible new campus layouts. Ground rules for the activity included retaining several buildings for renovation while replacing structures that are functionally obsolete, and creating a cohesive plan that allows the large classroom building and attached commons and central kitchen to be occupied during construction. Each group debated tough topics such as improved security, better traffic flow, and a diversity of learning experiences for students and teachers, while light-heartedly embellishing their plans with amenities such as a coffee stand to revive sleepy parents. After reaching consensus, a spokesperson presented each group’s design, outlining the opportunities and challenges of their proposal.
Eight different possible layouts of the Glacier campus were brainstormed and shared
integrated. Just as private offices and cubicle walls and are disappearing from the workplace in exchange for open collaboration, so too are straight rows of student desks in classrooms as educators rethink the effectiveness of periodlong lectures. Learning environments need to be flexible and adaptable for activities ranging from hands-on model building and science experiments, to fine arts critique and small group discussions. As much learning takes place outside the classroom as inside, informally, in shared activity areas and “maker spaces” where a student’s ideas are conceived, built, tested and re-imagined. Students, parents and faculty are not the only ones who will benefit from a transformed middle school facility. A frequently articulated goal among symposium participants was the concept of Glacier Middle School serving as a community center for the Buckley area. Suggestions for connecting with the local community included welcoming adult education on campus, promoting health and fitness opportunities, supporting dance and drama productions and making current outreach programs more accessible to those in need.
Community members, staff, and school board collaborated to share their ideas
Of course, the activity means little if the community rejects our February 2016 bond proposal, but the success we’ve posted since the last bond creates an enthusiasm among us to keep up the great work. Let me share some of our impressive outcomes from the past bond election. In 2004, the WRSD graduation rate was 82 percent, and a total of 59 students took Advanced Placement (AP) exams in a handful of AP courses. Just a decade later, following construction of the new White River High School, the district proudly boasts one of highest (extended) graduation rates in the state at 94 percent, and more than 400 students sat for exams in the 10 diverse AP courses we offered in 2014. Although the 2001 bond will soon be paid off, the investment continues to pay high dividends as students thrive at White River High School. Dreaming, and dreaming big, for a middle school structure to build on that success was key to the symposium. Michael McGavock, principal of the Tacoma-based firm McGranahan Architects, invited participants to consider how a school facility contributes to student success. Contemporary education strives to prepare students with skills for yet-to-be imagined careers in an evolving work environment and world economy. Jobs are trending toward being more collaborative, more creative, and increasingly technology
Portables comprise about 40% of current classroom space. These would be replaced by a permanent, up-to-date structure.
Similar to the 2001 bond, an approved February 2016 bond proposal will fund improvements at every school in the district. In addition to a major rejuvenation of Glacier Middle School, each elementary facility will receive modest repairs such as new roofs, paint and carpet, and the replacement of most portables with permanent classroom space. Last, but not least, Hornets sports fans can look forward to cheering on the White River High School home team under a new covered stadium.

Bond Information Update
White River Pride Runs Deep
ELK RIDGE BOND PROJECT
Elk Ridge Elementary was originally built in 1969 and is need of a full renovation. The Elk Ridge site also has room to expand by 30,000 square feet. Doing both the renovations and expansion at the same time saves money and accommodates future growth. Proposed housing developments within the City of Buckley will impact Elk Ridge Elementary capacity in the near future. Elk Ridge also houses our elementary special education programs for students with significant disabilities, a growing population with
specific learning and classroom space requirements. Under the proposed renovations, Elk Ridge will also upgrade technology, and improve safety and security with the addition of new intercom, communication and phone systems. Playground equipment and fields will be improved. The plumbing, electrical and heating systems are nearing the end of their useful life, so replacements would be included. Elk Ridge would gain additional classrooms and improved playground facilities.
DAFFODIL PRINCESS CORONATION
Watch D.O.G.S. Dads Of Great Students
Recently, White River High School held their 5th annual Daffodil Princess Selection. Maddie Meyer, daughter of Teresa and Chris Meyer, was selected to represent White River School District in the 2016 Daffodil Festival. Princess Maddie was escorted by Andrew Northam.
Elk Ridge is proud to have a Watch DOG program on campus and going strong for the third year in a row. Watch Dogs (Dads of Great Students) was started in 1998 in Arkansas and has grown into a nationally recognized program with an intentional focus on bringing dads and father figures into schools. Up until three years ago if you visited Elk Ridge you would notice lots of moms and even a few grandmas volunteering, but not many dads. The Watch DOG program has helped change this and welcomes dads, step-dads, and grandpas into our school. We ask our DOGS to volunteer one day during the year. The day starts with being out at buses to greet students, includes working with kids in several classrooms, eating with kids and lunch, and being out at recess. Our DOGS get to be stars for the day and kids love to have them on campus. Our DOGS help making connections with kids and you can often see them surrounded where ever they go. It’s important our kids have dads and male role models at school, especially since there are few male staff members in our school! Our DOGS also help by being an extra set of eyes in many of our key locations during the day.
The candidates: LeeAnna Shropshire escorted by Riley Johnson; Ashley Chess escorted by Tomas Peltram; Emily Kunst escorted by Marcus Henke; Sarah Brimhall escorted by Tyler Ussery, were interviewed by a panel of judges, gave a speech including this year’s theme, “Fun in the Sun”, and answered an impromptu question. 2015 Princess Bailey Rasmussen was there to crown the new princess and give her farewell speech. Princess Maddie will volunteer throughout Pierce County and surrounding areas and ride in the 83rd Annual Daffodil Parade on Saturday, April 9th, 2016.

We are thrilled to have many DOGS sign up for multiple days during the year and share how their volunteer experience has helped them have a better understanding of our school and expectations. We typically have about 25 DOGS during the year with many returning for multiple days.
