The Valley’s young jazz heads learn their chops on Wednesday night, Jan. 29, at North Bend’s jazz club, Boxley’s. Standing with a group of middle- and high-school-aged musicians, plus regular drummer Brian Gmerek, at right, club owner Danny Kolke recently made the decision with wife Robyn to turn the club over to its education and performance-focused non-profit arm, the Boxley Music Fund. The change is meant to preserve the club’s jazz focus. Below, a high school trio performs. From left are Seb Rowland, Jered Byford and Nick Mardon.

The two adult musicians are jamming on the stage at Boxley’s, the jazz club and restaurant in downtown North Bend, as middle-school and high-school age jazz musicians arrive for their Wednesday night show. “It’s easier to play jazz with a group,” says Byford. So, veteran musicians like Clark and Gmerek play alongside young people who are just beginning their journeys in jazz. “It’s a great experience, for us and for them,” says Gmerek. It’s that mixing of the old and new generations of players that’s one of the core facets of Boxleys. SEE LEGACY, 7

Snoqualmie Valley School District still has time to build and open a sixth elementary school by the start of the 2015-16 school year. So far, though, the district doesn’t have the money, and is running out of time. Although design work and planning for the 29-classroom building began last fall, paid for with school impact fees from the district’s capital facilities fund, the district has not committed to a bond to raise the estimated $35 million total project costs.

About 20 community residents, all neighboring the future project, raised these issues at the Feb. 4 meeting of the North Bend City Council, and several urged the council to live up to its own comprehensive plan.

Valley teen killed in SUV accident along Middle Fork

Meet the police; Snoqualmie Department to greet North Bend residents North Bend will have a new police department when midnight strikes on Friday March 7, and citizens will be able to meet their new police force a week later. Community members are all invited to an open house with the Snoqualmie Police Department, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 14 at the Si View Community Center Fireside Room. North Bend’s City Council voted in August, 2012, to enter a five-year contract for police services with Snoqualmie, and to end its 30-year contract with King County.

By Valley Record Staff

A Valley teen was killed in an SUV accident Saturday evening, Feb. 8, on the Middle Fork Road near North Bend. According to a report from the King County Sheriff ’s Office, the accident happened at about 7:50 p.m. Saturday. A 16-year-old boy was at the wheel of Toyota Landcruiser, driving on a dirt portion of Southeast Middle Fork Road, with four passengers, three 17-year-old boys and a 16-yearold girl. The driver lost control of the vehicle, which left the road and went down an embankment, smashing into trees and a large boulder. The boy in the left rear seat, a Mount Si junior, died from injuries at the scene. The other occupants of the car suffered minor injuries and were taken to a local hospital. Sheriff ’s office spokeswoman Cindi West told the Record that alcohol and drugs are not believed to be involved. Conditions were dry on the road at the time. Mount Si High School principal John Belcher released a message for parents Monday morning, Feb. 10. The school was closed due to snowy conditions that morning. “We will share with students first thing tomorrow if school is open,” Belcher wrote. “Extra support is being offered for anyone needing extra time and support when we resume school since we are closed today. The auditorium will be set up as an optional drop-in room to provide a quiet, safe place where students could go for support from other students and counselors. We are also working to monitor all of our students and reach out to those who seem to need support. Additional district counselors, staff, administration, and faith based community will be invited to support students and staff during this difficult time.” “Our sincerest thoughts and prayers go out to the student’s family, friends, teachers and neighbors for their loss,” Belcher wrote.

It’s a big, empty building, but the old North Bend fire station may be the perfect fit for a “little” new winery. Piccola Cellars recently signed a five-year lease on the property, and plans to relocate its business from Woodinville, and open a second public tasting room. The North Bend City Council approved the lease Feb. 4, allowing the company to proceed with the renovation. Piccola will use only the main floor portion of the building, for a 1,200-square-foot warehouse in what used to be the equipment bays, plus a 700-square-foot tasting room on the south end of the building, where various Piccola wines will be offered for sampling and for sale. “We’re hoping to open as close to the first part of March as possible,” company owner Diana Kaspic said. When they open, all Piccola products will be available for tasting, sale by the glass and other portable options. “We don’t do bottles,” Kaspic explained, “We just do returnable bottles.” Piccola wines are available in minimal-packaging forms like kegs, refillable growlers and disposable totes. Wines will be produced in eastern Washington, and packaged and distributed from the North Bend shop.

Where is the love? All around you, it turns out

WWW.VALLEYRECORD.COM

The winter can seem like a crummy time to live in the Valley. All this cold and rain. Even our snow days are rainy. The news can get you down—fire, crime, taxes, shoddy winter Olympics construction. But before you really get down consider that there’s a lot of love that makes the Valley go round. With Valentine’s Day upon us, let me just chalk up the things that may brighten your heart, locally speaking.

Boxley’s big gift Danny Kolke is a pretty unassuming guy. A musician and a collaborative type, he’s not SETH TRUSCOTT really the kind of guy to sing Valley Record Editor his own praises. So folks who heard that Danny and his wife Robyn had turned their North Bend restaurant and jazz club, Boxley’s, over to their non-profit music education foundation might have shrugged it off as just a business thing. But take one second and imagine the living history inside the historic McGrath Hotel. We’ve seen restaurants come and go—Easy Joe’s and Robertiello’s before it in the last few years. The Kolkes have realized their vision for a hopping, happening place that serves up regional and national artists while promoting local middle school and high school talent, talent that often gains college scholarships for jazz—and they do this every single week. The Kolkes, who won Business of the Year honors a year ago for their efforts in creating a cultural center in North Bend, realized that what they’ve built at Boxley’s goes beyond them. That personal love for music translates to big love for the community. Share that love—go over to Boxley’s on a Tuesday or Wednesday evening and cheer on the kids.

Love for the troops Valley resident Suzy Cassidy and the American Legion Auxiliary are making sure that, this year, local veterans aren’t forgotten on Valentine’s day. They adopted a troop of 35 soldiers that will receive care packages with cards and useful items. You can get involved in these care package projects by contacting Suzy at suzy@chocolate2die4.com.

Helping the people that care Life can be stressful for caregivers, the spouses and family members of adults of all ages who need deep, permanent care. They must devote much of their time to keeping their loved one healthy, something most of us take for granted. Sno-Valley Senior Center’s Adult Day Health program can help, with a support class aimed at those vital caregivers. A support group also meets on Thursdays, starting at 1 p.m. tomorrow. It costs you nothing to attend. If you care for a loved one in this Valley, you’re not alone. There are plenty of people who know what you are going through and want to help.

• Only weeks before 60 local workers will be idled by closure of Weyerhaeuser’s sawmill, 130 more have been left without jobs by the destruction by fire of the company’s plywood mill on Sunday. The tall orange glow of the great fire could be seen from all over the area. Because the plant’s sprinkler system never activated, and because the three closest fire hydrants were frozen by a recent deep freeze, there was little firefighters could do as the 120,000 square foot mill was engulfed in flames.

Well, I’ve been married to her for 42 years, 43 in May, but I don’t really observe Valentine’s Day. I found the right woman, and I hope she found the right man!” Arie Rice North Bend

“I’m not really a big Valentine’s Day fan, and my wife isn’t either, because every day is Valentine’s Day for us. We try to treat each other with respect and show our love for each other every day.” Andy Moreno North Bend

• The search continues for Albert “Ben” Young, 74, of Snoqualmie, who failed to return to his home Monday from a wood-cutting expedition. Searchers centered on the Camp 15 road above Tanner Tuesday after Paul Fleming, a county roads employee, passed him on the road the previous day.

Division undermines food bank support

As a concerned brother in the Lord and a lifelong resident of our Valley, I am disheartened by recent events pertaining to our local food bank.

Marriage is about community BY KIRA NELSON

Contributing Writer

hat is it about marriage that captivates us? Why is it that a show about finding the perfect wedding dress can run for 11 seasons on TLC? Why is it that the most liked pictures on Facebook are wedding and engagement shots? There is something inside of all of us that wants to believe in true love. But on an even deeper level, I think we all know that marriage isn’t just about romance; it’s about generations of people and the communities that are formed around them. When I was working for the Record this summer, one of my favorite tasks was going through old editions of the Record from 50 years ago, and pulling out interesting stories for our Out of the Past series. My favorites were always the marriage announcements. On the Monday two weeks before my boyfriend James would ask me to marry him, I read about the union of another couple. On June 29, 1963, Miss Bonnie Jean Willett, daughter of Mrs. Olive Willett of North Bend and the late Mr. Glenn Willett, became the bride of Mr. Ronald R. Brady in a simple ceremony at Mount Si Lutheran Church. Two and a half weeks later, James and I went to talk to Pastor Mark Griffith about getting married at Mount Si Lutheran. Of course I started daydreaming what my announcement in the KIRA NELSON paper would look like. Miss Kira Clark, daughter of Mr. Del Clark and Mrs. Alexandra Clark of North Bend, became the bride of Mr. James D. Nelson in a simple ceremony at Mount Si Lutheran Church on Dec. 22, 2013. We considered other venues, but for some reason we kept coming back to the Valley. We could have gotten married in a big flashy church downtown, but I’m not a flashy girl. I’m a North Bend girl and I love this place. I’ll probably never get a chance to know Bonnie Jean and Ronald Brady, but on a Monday in July they inspired me. As a 21-year-old, totally in love, I was reminded I wasn’t the first person to come up with the idea of marriage. But by getting married, I was entering into the greatest and longest tradition of mankind and the bedrock of our communities. During our marriage homily, Pastor Mark told James and me to look around at the people gathered in the little church. I saw Mrs. Matlock, who lives a street over from us and directed our home school plays, I saw Mrs. Rixon, who attempted to teach me how to sew and laughed at my rather creative concoctions. Carson Wise, my favorite 13-year-old, was all decked out and Beth Ryan, who faithfully drove me to dance class every Monday for two years, was beaming. “They are here because they love you, care about you, and will support you,” Pastor Mark said. “Remember them, remember this great coming together, remember them in the good times and in the bad—and remember, you’re not alone in this.” As I walked down the aisle, I was a mess of emotions. I can’t help but wonder if Miss Bonnie Jean felt the way I did. Was she nervous? Did she feel bittersweet about giving up her maiden name? I don’t know, but what I do know is that she got married and so did I. The community which formed us, which prepared us for this covenant, was part of the great tradition that we were stepping into. • Kira (Clark) Nelson interned for the Valley Record last summer. She lives in Cambridge, Mass.

NEW SCHOOL FROM 1 The school board is considering a $216 million bond, which includes the sixth elementary school, but two of the five board members opposed the bond proposal at a Jan. 23 work session, and community feedback at a series of public meetings in December was lukewarm in its support. By all enrollment projections, the district will need a sixth elementary school by the 2016-17 school year. Currently, district Business Services Director Ryan Stokes told the school board, each elementary school has about one available classroom, at current class sizes. He then presented estimated classroom needs in various class-size scenarios, which estimated the need for between three more classrooms at low enrollment projections, and 26 more at medium projections with reduced class sizes. Stokes said his projections did not account for a 17:1 class-size ratio the state recommends for the youngest elementary students, nor did they include the staterequired full-day Kindergarten, expected

to start in lower-income school districts in 2016-17. Asked about the timeframe for the school, Stokes said, “If a bond happened after April, we would not be able to open in 2015.” Following the enrollment report, board members heard from TCF architects working on the new elementary school, adapting their designs from Cascade View Elementary School. They reported that the project was on schedule, and they were ready to apply for permits, a project milestone that required more funding than the initial contract authorized. They asked the board to approve the final contract, to continue their work. Board member Tavish MacLean asked clarifying questions, to confirm the district wouldn’t be locked into building before it had the funds — the permits are good for a year and can be renewed for another year, if needed; and to confirm that a delay in approving the contract could delay work on the building — it could. The board unanimously approved the contract for the sixth elementary school, at an estimated cost of $35.3 million, with TCF Architects.

A pet pig escaped its enclosure on Southeast Delta Street in Snoqualmie and had a small adventure on Sunday, Jan. 26. With the help of the Snoqualmie Police Department, though, the animal was returned home, safe and sound, in the early afternoon. “I don’t know how they did it — it’s a big pig!” Snoqualmie Police Chief Steve McCulley. “It might be tame enough that it just comes along, but after a while, you learn to come prepared. I usually carry a leash.” McCulley said he wasn’t involved in the incident, but he was familiar with the pig. “This pig has a rap sheet!” he joked, recounting a time about two years ago when the pig nearly charged him, as he was searching the area for a fleeing thief. The pig, probably agitated by the commotion, was safely inside his fence, though, and couldn’t reach McCulley. The pig may have been agitated again on Sunday, because it was initially aggressive to the police officer. Before long, though, it was safe at home, in its fence alongside the house. “I think everybody knows about the pig in that area,” McCulley said, since it’s lived there for years. There is no law against keeping the pig, either, which McCulley says gives Snoqualmie its own charm. “It’s kind of like people with their chickens,” he explained. Familiar or not, though, McCulley urges people to call the police if they encounter an unexpected animal in their way. “If (you) see an animal like that running loose, yes call the police,” McCulley said. “Especially if it’s a pig!” The number to call is always 9-1-1, he added. If it’s a non-emergency like a loose pig (or chicken), the dispatcher will route your call to the right contact.

“We all… feel like something that we care about is being threatened,” Jack Harris said of his group of neighbors at the meeting. Dick Ryon said he wasn’t opposed to development, and understood that it was necessary, “but I also understand that the comp plan requires that developers and cities agree to not damage neighborhoods as they exist, and to build compatibly with those… and that doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen here.” The project is a subdivision of a 39-acre parcel of land on Southeast Tanner Road (currently serving about 50 properties) into 156 residential lots. Segale Properties of Kirkland owns the land and has filed the preliminary plat application, which will be the subject of an upcoming public hearing. North Bend Planner Mike McCarty assured the group of neighbors they would have more opportunities to comment in the future, and said all of their feedback would be considered in the staff ’s review of the application. That feedback included River Glen resident Barbara Wolosyn’s feeling that the project was incompatible with the city’s code. Citing the city’s 2007 update to its comprehensive plan and its 2012 transportation plan update, she claimed several discrepancies between the document and the proposed project. She was particularly concerned about runoff, since the entire neighborhood, as well as most of the city, is in a critical aquifer recharge area, or CARA, and wanted the developer to consider storm water mitigation options like rain gardens. Celia McNay, also from River Glen, emphasized a need to protect a belt of trees on a berm between her neighborhood and the north side of the project site. The trees have esthetic value, are used by wildlife, provide a buffer against noise and light pollution, and help protect the other area trees, she said. Two tree maintenance companies informed McNay and her neighbors that “our own trees would

be in significant danger with the removal of the berm,” from the spread of laminated root rot, falling limbs, and other problems. She proposed preserving the berm by removing it from the development area, at an estimated loss of 12 homes to the project. “It’s not a significant deduction for the builder, but it would be a significant safety issue for all of us who live along that area,” she said, including newcomers to the neighborhood. Ryon raised several concerns about Tanner Road, and strongly recommended that the city lower the speed limit on the road, and rebuild the intersection with North Bend Way to create a 90-degree turn, which would also help slow traffic down. At least one neighbor seconded these recommendations, and Harris told the council that the group there would continue to attend council meetings, and asked for guidance on how best to be heard. Terry Tatko appealed to the council’s sense of livability, by quoting the city’s recent ad in the Valley Record’s Spotlight on Business. “North Bend is the small town that is Jack Harris, creating the premier outRiver Glen resident door adventure destination in the Puget Sound region,” she read, then added, “My sincere hope is that this department, and this city council truly believe in that statement. As it stands, the proposed Tanner Subdivision does not seem to be in alignment with that statement.” McCarty, Mayor Ken Hearing, and several councilmen thanked the group for their comments, and McCarty gave an update on the project. Staff are currently reviewing the preliminary plat application, one of several phases in the project, and will weigh all of the public testimony against the city’s existing code, including environmental and traffic issues. A hearing examiner will make the final determination on whether the project is compatible with city code, after reviewing the project plans, city code, staff recommendations and testimony given at a public hearing. The hearing has not yet been scheduled, but will be announced on the city’s website and in the Valley Record legal notices.

LEGACY FROM 1 Keeping education and performance is a key reason why the club is changing from a business to a non-profit. On January 1, owners Danny and Robyn Kolke turned their restuarant over to the Boxley Music Fund, the non-profit organization they founded in 2010. It was part of a master plan to keep jazz flowing for many years to come.

Changing the business The Kolkes opened the club, named for a creek that runs southeast of North Bend, on September 27, 2009. Running the club is a sideline for both the former owners. “We both basically did this in our spare time,” said Danny, who works full time in the software industry, and remains the club’s general manager. Robyn plays a support role, stepping in as hostess as needed. Back when Boxley’s opened, the plan at first was “we’ll do this for as long as we have fun, and we’re done,” Danny said. He and Robyn could look back on their triumphs, such as the visits by world-class and Grammy-winning artists, brought to North Bend by the club. “We’ve had a lot of successes,” Danny said. “We’ve done the jazz walk, the blues walk. We’ve brought in a lot of big names.” “It’s a fun place to hang out,” says Robyn. As owners, they’ve spent a lot of hours here, also relying on a staff that is good at handling things when the they needed to get away. As owners, the Kolkes were also subsidizing their business with time and money. Business has improved most years, “but it’s been slow growth,” Robyn said. “The biggest stressor is financial.” “We never got paid a cent for being here, and we constantly put money into the place,” Danny said. While their passion is still strong, they couldn’t help but think about the future. “We were looking for a way that we could keep the club here for a long time, and have a succession plan,” Danny said. “We’re still having a lot of fun doing this now. But how many years do we want to do this?” “One option is you do this until you’re burned out. Or you do it past burnout and you get angry. We just didn’t want to go down that path.” Since those first days in 2009, Boxley’s had built momentum of its own. “We woke up one day and said, ‘This is bigger than us,’” Danny said. “When the city gave us the Business Owner of the Year award (for 2012), we started getting so many thank-yous from kids, parents.... It really shifted for us.” “Now, it’s not about, ‘let’s do this as long as we’re having fun,’” he added. “Let’s figure out how to do this for a long time.”

How Boxley’s will change The Kolkes started the Boxley Music Fund one year after open-

ing, as a way to support music programs and community events. As Danny put it, “we can’t charge enough for a cheeseburger to pay for this. We can’t charge covers.” With the support of the foundation, and the successes of the jazz and blues walks, now was a good time to make the change. Boxley’s, as the Valley knows, it wouldn’t exist without the generosity of patrons. That’s typical in this business, says Danny, and there are precedents. “Few jazz clubs are successful without foundations to support them,” said Danny. Putting the club in the hands of the Music Fund allows other, passionate people to rotate in and out of the organization. It brings community ownership. The restaurant remains a limited-liability corporation. When there are proceeds, they go to the nonprofit. Danny will still hold the general manager’s role. He’ll also remain visible as a regular musician at Boxley’s. “In the short term, not much is going to change. We’re still going to be very involved,” Danny said. Kolke sees himself as a collaborator, good at starting ideas and finding leaders to help with the details. He has a lot of confidence in the staff, including manager April Littlejohn, who joined shortly after opening, chef Blake Wardman and bar manager Nancy. The management of Boxley’s will report to a small volunteer board that in turn reports to the seven-person board of the Music Fund. A plan is afoot to revamp the foundation’s membership program, improving it for members. Right now, perks include online access to hundreds of hours worth of recorded Boxley’s shows. Music is recorded nightly, and members are mailed a compact disc album of music every month. Premium members get other perks, including monthly gift certificates to dine at the club. “Now it’s all one, we can blur the lines and come up with unique benefits,” Danny said. The Music Fund currently has more than 100 members and 10 corporate sponsors. “We just need about 50 more members, plus 10 sponsors to make it self-sustaining,” Danny said. From the members who pay premiums to support education and entertainment, to the diners and listeners who come to Boxley’s, and the parents who come to watch their children, to the musicians who share their knowledge with young people, “It really is a community effort,” says Danny.

Seeing it continue On Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, the club has a local focus, bringing students from Mount Si High School and Valley middle schools to the stage. Professionals play Thursday through Sunday. Thursday is date night, and features softer music. Saturdays are the biggest groups, and more boisterous. Danny plays with his jazz trio most Sundays. Depending on his mood, he plays quiet or loud. Sometimes Robyn has to come to the stage and “turn me down,” he said.

The Give Good Awards Foundation of Snoqualmie Valley released its 2014 nominees, announcing the names of 39 community members and one entire school body who represent the foundation’s mission of “Recognizing and celebrating those that inspire others!” Arts: Mary Miller, Jill Rockwell, Carol Reitz, Amy Friedman Business: Artitudes Design-Andrea Heuston, North Bend Theater-Cindy Walker, The Irwin Group-Christi Irwin, Carmichaels True Value-Wendy Thomas and Brian Woolsey, Snoqualmie Valley Hospital Courage: Snoqualmie Valley Relay of Life Environmental: Nicole Sanders-City of Snoqualmie, Erick and Wendy Haakenson-Jubilee Farms Educational excellence: Mickey Fowler, Laurie Shepherd, Matt Wenman, Brad Hillard, Brian McCormick, Rachel O’Neill Youth advocate: Zach Hadden, John Lockie, Michelle Carnes and Joel Bauer Parent volunteer: Joe Richter, Mike Hedricks, Curt Carlson Teen spirit: Kianna Hales, Max Haverfield, Sparkle Cheer Team, Rachel Mallasch Youth leadership incentive: Jessica Morris and Hannah Buzard, Christian Glennon, Abbey Bottemiller, Priceton See Unsung hero: Tom and Nancy White, Tina Laguna, Mark Hennig, Ashley Glennon, Rebecca Kitz Spirit of the Valley: Kevin and Laurie Hauglie, Del and Nancy Moore, DeAnna Haverfield Recognizing inspirational people and highlighting the hard work invested into making our community a great place to live, the Give Good awards aim to celebrate the everyday heroes, outstanding citizens, youth, businesses, and organizations with a red carpet event, 6:30 p.m. Friday, Feb. 28, at Church on the Ridge in Snoqualmie.

Bids are being accepted through Friday, March 7. To learn more, call Carol Nelson at (425) 8318104. High-school age performances were always part of the plan at Boxley’s. But the youth role has grown, more than Danny expected. “The real surprise here was definitely the middle school program. If you had said we were going to do a five o’clock jam session for middle school kids, I wouldn’t have believed you,” Danny said. Boxley’s weekly performances are a growth experience for students—students like Aaron Tevis and Matt Bumgardner, who earned college scholarships thanks to their jazz skills. “These kids, they were here all the time,” said Danny. “It’s exciting to see that. There’s a fifth grader (Walker Byford) playing drums now, there’s a freshman (his brother Jared, on trombone) who’s just a monster. He’s been jamming here for a year, and he’s in ninth grade!” “I see this. I want this to continue,” he added. • Boxley’s is located at 101 West North Bend Way. The North Bend Blues Walk returns April 26. The Jazz Walk is back on September 13. Learn more about the Music Fund at www.boxleymusicfund.com. Follow a music schedule at www.boxleysplace.com.

Secrets of a happy marriage Sudoku Couples in for the long haul share what drew, keeps them together Contributing Writer

Even in an age in which the longevity of marriage isn’t certain, many will agree that there is something almost magical about a lifelong love. Valley couples Harley and Kathy Brumbaugh, Jack and Bonnie Barker, and Lynn and Larry Anderson have all been married more than 50 years, and that’s something to celebrate.

Drawn together Fifty-seven years ago, Kathy made up her mind that she and Harley would meet. They were both students at Central Washington College, but given that she was a freshman and he was a senior, their only interactions were during choir practice. Her opportunity to finally catch his eye came when the choir toured the state. There were two buses and several private cars, and Kathy got her friends to make sure that she and Harley were in the same car. “I was like a lamb being led to slaughter,” Harley said. “He was just a friendly person and I had heard so many great things about him,” Kathy said. “Then we drove all around the state together and we got to know each other pretty well.” The summer after Harley graduated, he was drafted into the military. The week before he left, Harley asked Kathy to marry him under a big chestnut tree in his parents’ front yard in what used to be the city of Snoqualmie Falls. They then began a 10-month engagement. “We didn’t know if he was going to be sent KATHY AND HARLEY BRUMBAUGH, IN JUNE, 1958, out of the country,” Kathy said. “But in some JUST MARRIED. ways the separation was good.” “Whenever I start taking her for granted,” Harley said. “I remember how much I missed her during that period and the tears of joy when we finally got to be together.” This June, the Brumbaughs will celebrate their 56th anniversary. The Brumbaughs don’t pretend never to disagree, but say it’s important to consider the other person’s way of doing things. Taking sides separates you. “The main thing is to leave your ego at the door,” said Kathy. “It’s a team effort. You need to be more concerned with the welfare of the other person.” “It’s the man’s job to take responsibility to care for his family,” said Harley. “You’ve got to set the tone for the family and be mom and dad together.” Today, 57 years after their first college choir trip together, Harley and Kathy are still singing in the Snoqualmie Methodist Church choir which Harley directs.

Matched pair Bonnie met Jack 61 years ago on the North Fork in North Bend. After Bonnie’s brother introduced the pair, they started going steady. Bonnie says that she and Jack fit well together. Their dates to the movies and dance halls were just fun. On Friday nights, one of their favorite activities was eating at the Ben Paris Restaurant, a diner in Seattle where local boxers congregated. “We would just have coffee and hamburgers and hang out with all the old-time sports guys,” Jack said. “We just went there so we could look at them. All those boxers and their cauliflower ears,” Bonnie said. “Just watching them eat and hang out was all we did.” One night after a date in Seattle, Jack parked his light gray 1949 Ford in Bonnie’s driveway and asked her to marry him. They were married five months later, in the spring of 1953 at Mount Si Lutheran Church in North Bend. Bonnie had her dress and her bridesmaid’s tea length burgundy dresses made for a very reasonable price by a seamstress in Snoqualmie. SEE MARRIAGE, 16

Chip on their shoulders

Mount Si basketball team bringing physicality, trouble to postseason battle BY SETH TRUSCOTT Editor

Top league score for ‘Cat gymnastics Mount Si gymnasts claimed the KingCo championships as a team, competing at the league tournament on Saturday, Feb. 8, at Mercer Island. Mount Si led in all events but floor, in which it was narrowly edged out by secondplace Lake Washington. Junior Jenn Rogers was second in all-around scores, placing first on floor, second on beam, fourth on bars. Senior Carissa Castagno was fifth overall, placing fourth on beam, sixth on floor. Hailey Johnson tied for second on vault. Mackenzie Brown was seventh on bars. Castagno tied for ninth. “Mount Si took first on the strength of all the girls,” Coach Jessica Easthope told the Record. “Each and every single one of them contributed to our work with their hard work, dedication and outstanding performance at the meet.”

Cedarcrest boys hold off Falls at home The Cedarcrest varsity boys basketball team continues their march into the postseason, beating Falls at home Tuesday, 69-58. The Red Wolves rushed to a big lead in the first half, 19-11 in the first quarter, 16-6 in the second. Falls outscored Cedarcrest in the second half, 23-20 in quarter three, 18-13 in the fourth, but not enough to retake the Red Wolves lead. Chad Klingenberg led the Red Wolves with a double-double, putting up 17 points and snagging 14 rebounders. Kyle Walsh added 16 points, Austin Paxman added 10, Jordan Corpus scored seven points and had eight assists and five rebounds. Alex Paulson had seven points, Robert Cha and Andrew Gutmann added four. Anthony Ditore and Jake Kirschenmann had two points. Paxman made two three-pointers. Walsh and Paulsen each had one long bomb.

The Mount Si boys basketball team looks to be peaking at the right time, as they approach some crucial postseason battles. The team is playing with confidence and absorbing some key lessons, as is shown in the Wildcat’s home win, 56-40 against Juanita on Saturday, Feb. 8. Strong play by seniors Tyler McCreadie, Jack Nelson and Beau Shain anchored a very athletic performance. Nelson was Mount Si’s main scoring force, putting up 19 on the night, including several long field goals. McCreadie had a double-double, with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Shain was a big rebounder, adding 14. “It was all about the physicality,” said sophomore forward Parker Dumas, who added 11 points. “We were taller than them, but I think we were playing harder than them, too,” added McCreadie. “It was getting it swinging, getting it moving on defense.” Dumas praised McCreadie: “He came out big, and got us in that lead.” “We just try to keep it strong, keep it high,” McCreadie said. “Our game plan tonight was to feed TYLER MCCREADIE Tyler the ball,” said Nelson, and it worked. “We’re playing great basketball right now. We’re excited.” “Tyler has been huge for us,” said Mount Si coach Kyle Clearman. “When he goes, we go. Same with Jack, same with Beau. Our senior leaders keep us going.” “Tonight, getting it inside, we had a dominating performance, offensively and defensively. When we play to our strengths, we’re a pretty good basketball team,” the coach added. DANNY TOMSON At first, it looked like an easy win. Mount Si jumped out to a lead, but the Rebels were determined to give them a good game. Juanita clawed their way to within a few buckets in the latter half, in part due to a lack of focus on Mount Si’s end. That’s something Clearman wants to improve. “It’s been a problem, giving up too many points in the fourth quarter. Going into playoffs, that can’t happen. We need to play tough.”

Big plays and loud cheers While McCreadie, Shain or Dumas are scrapping their way closer to the net, chances are Nelson is strategizing for a sweet shot. SEE SHOULDERS, 23

Mount Si linemen Brad Christensen and Jack Nordby have played football together since their elementary-school days. The duo get a rare chance to continue that tradition, as they head to Monmouth, Ore., this fall to play for the Western Oregon Wolves. Nordby and Christensen were both key parts of the Wildcat’s hard-hitting and award-winning line this season. Christensen, in particular, a third-generation Valley football player, picked up first-team Kingco honors for his role on the offensive line, second-team for defensive line, and an all-state nomination. Nordby was right there with him. It was Nordby who picked Western Oregon University first, with its education department and its chance to further his ambition as a future history teacher weighing in, as well as the vibe he got from the coaches and players in the Division 2 program. “I just felt very welcome there,” said Nordby, who visited a couple of weeks ago. Christensen visited later. SEE SIGNERS, 12

“Their coach had called to ask about Brad,” Nordby said. “I told him Brad is a great guy, a hard worker.” Western is going to feel a little bit like home. “Their uniform is the same,” red and black just like Mount Si, Nordby said. “They have the same helmet! It’s going to feel like ‘high school part 2,’ only better.” Family members watched as the two linemen joined other athletes, signing their official commitment documents early Wednesday, Feb. 6. Nordby and Christensen sat at a table in the Mount Si Commons, posters of Western’s stylized wolf in front of them. “I’ve followed these boys for years,” said Brad’s grandma, Jeann Christensen. Now, she’ll just have to follow them a little further. Also signing Wednesday was Lauren Solene, a past Mount Si soccer player, goalkeeper and club player. She did not play for the Wildcats this fall, but played for Cascade, on the field, dad Eric Solene said. She committed to St. Peter’s University, a private, Jesuit school in New Jersey. Solene will play for the Peacocks. Last but not least, Class of 2014 quarterback Nick Mitchell made his verbal decision to play football for the Oregon State Beavers official. He actually committed last spring to play for Oregon State University, making the decision prior to senior year. Mitchell led the Mount Si team to the state semi-finals in 2012 and to the second round of the state playoffs last fall. He was named offensive player of the year for the Kingco conference, and to the first team. Mitchell joins his older brother Josh, class of 2012, on the gridiron at Corvallis. Josh is a lineman.

Ancient secrets of the Nile

his creature’s sharp-toothed grin is all paper. Harrison Clark used shoeboxes, paper mache, fruit cups and other household items to craft the eight-foot Nile crocodile. It took him two weeks and hours of work, and when finished, he hauled it in pieces to the Twin Falls stage in a big trash bag. Then he Velcro’ed the pieces together. Clark says he already knew a bit about crocs, “and I thought I would do good on my Fun Facts and essay.” “The important thing to know” about these beasts, says the sixth grader, is that “They are very dangerous. They will attack any human or animal.” “I don’t know if I have 80 teeth, but I have a lot,” he says, indicating the gaping maw. “I cut these by hand.” Real crocs have 80 teeth, and they can replace every one up to 50 times. Clark, a student in Miss Skoropinski’s class, presented his discoveries and handmade creation on Friday, Feb. 7, with the rest of the sixth grade class at Twin Falls Middle School. The occasion was the school’s fifth annual Egyptian Museum Walk. Students research ancient artifacts, people and events, then make a replica or model of their topic, along with an essay, picture, and several ‘Fun Facts.’ Parents are invited to stroll the exhibits and quiz the pupils on their discoveries.

Cole Landreneau, left, created a homemade crane, a cantilevered machine used by Egyptians to bring water up for irrigation. He used a wire-cutter to make a hinge, built the body from sticks in his backyard, and used clay and lead bits for the counterweight. The real model, he says, would have been big enough to dip into a real river.

Liam Roselli made this shield to represent Kadesh, a huge battle fought by the pharaoh Ramses II in 1274 BC. Thousands of pharaoh’s warriors carried the cowhide shields. Roselli bovined his up using a marker.

West African kora player to perform at Duvall center West African kora musician Foday Musa Suso gives a concert, 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 12, at the Duvall Visitor Center, 15619 Main St. in Duvall. Suso comes from a traditional Mandinka griot family from Gambia in West Africa. His main instrument is the kora, a traditional West African 21-stringed harp-lute. In the Mandinka tradition, the kora player is also a skilled singer, oral historian, geneologist and storyteller. Suso emigrated to Chicago in 1977 and has collaborated with many famous American jazz and classical musicians such as Bill Laswell, Philip Glass, Pharoah Sanders, Jack DeJohnette, Ginger Baker, Paul Simon and the Kronos Quartet. Suggested donation is $5 at the door. There will be no advance ticket sales. The concert is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts, ArtsWA (formerly the Washington State Arts Commission), 4Culture, and Northwest Heritage Resources, in partnership with the Duvall Cultural Commission and the Ethnic Heritage Council.

Mount Si readies for Festival of Arts

Rachel Sands holds up a colorful but sturdy peasant necklace that she made for her diorama on ancient jewelry. She also made a linked necklace of gold, meant for the upper crust. “The upper class wore solid gold and precious things,” while the common folk wore cheaper, more durable materials. Sands, for her part, prefers the gold.

Maya Nataros, in Dana Fowler’s class, explored the fashions worn by ancient Egypt’s people, from the woman’s linen dress and the pharaoh’s finery to the slave’s, well, nothing. “I thought it was interesting to see what they would wear,” she said.

Mount Si High School’s Festival of the Arts is now taking submissions for the annual event. The festival, set for 6 to 8:30 p.m. Thursday, April 25 at the high school library and in the Wildcat Court, is open to all students, not just those focused on art. Submissions will be accepted in a wide range of media, including ceramics, painting, drawing, sculpture, print-making, photography, animation, woods, metal, video, digital illustration, graphic arts, video games and horticulture. The deadline for submitting works is April 4. The show will be set up and judged Wednesday, April 23, and winners will be announced the following evening at the public viewing. The Mount Si High School PTSA sponsors the annual show, to give the arts program exposure and stress the importance of the arts in Snoqualmie Valley schools.

OBITUARIES

MARRIAGE FROM 9 In 1956, they moved their family to a little white house in Fall City. “It was an ancient, dinky little house, very small for four children,” Bonnie said. “But it was right on the river and right in town.” Together they raised children, horses, cattle, and sheep and even started a Christmas tree farm. Jack, reminiscing about first dating Bonnie, says that he just fell for her, in spite of himself. Today, after 60 years of marriage, Bonnie and Jack are still stuck like glue. “It helps not to argue about things too much,” Bonnie said. “If you do, just leave the house and work in the flowers till you forget about it.” “You have to have a lot of love for each other,” said Jack. “You can walk away and think of a whole bunch of reasons why you are right, but you’ve got no reason. It takes a little give and take. You’ve got to have love for the rest of the family.” After 60 years of marriage and commitment to family, Bonnie and Jack have 12 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren.

Left, Parker Dumas steels himself and goes up for a shot against the Rebels. Above, Isaac Benedict pushes the ball on offense. Right, Jack Nelson is airborne, taking a wild shot.

“If I can find a little spot where the defense loses track of me, get my feet set, then I’m ready to go.” Forward JoJo Hillel elicited cheers when he nearly dunked on a fast break. “I’ve been bugging my teammates that I could get one,” the junior said. Isaac Benedict also got loud cheers for his fast hands, tipping away a Juanita layup in the second quarter on a Rebel fast break. “I was just trying to not let them get into the post for that,” the sophomore said. “We had some good ball movement today,” said sophomore Danny Tomson. “ A lot of defensive steals, too. We just need to finish our layups.” Tomson is finding varsity play a fast-paced affair—“It’s a quick game.” “It’s been a team effort to make sure their confidence is up,” Nelson said of younger teammates. “They’re starting to play really well. We need everyone clicking if we’re going to do what we want to do.” Now, Mount Si needs to focus that energy going into a crucial contest with Bellevue Tuesday. The Wildcat win over Juanita sends them to the semi-finals, Tuesday, Feb. 11, playing the Wolverines at Bellevue College, and granting a place at the SeaKing district tournament. “We’re going to come out with a huge chip on our shoulder,” Nelson said.
