The most expensive project in city history, if it’s built, could add about $500,000 to the price tag.
The Federal Way City Council held a special meeting on Sept. 5 to dis-cuss the proposed Perform-ing Arts and Conference Center (PACC) envisioned for the city center.
Lead member of Lorax Partners on the project, P.J. Santos, was on hand to give an update to the council. Santos shared an interest-ing addition to the PACC: a “patron room” that he had hinted at in a presentation to the council in February.
As envisioned now, the patron room would be situated on the upper floor of the PACC, and would be like a “members only” room, where those wish-ing to go inside would pay a small fee, likely through donations.
“That patron room cost…was $500,000 for our project,” he said. “This was not in our original pro-gram. A key piece here is about the operations of the future facility. It’s not just affording (the construction)
of the building and then letting it go, it’s having (the PACC) be built and become its own self-performing piece so it can handle all its costs and revenues itself.”
Santos had some eight-year averages for the potential benefits of the patron room. His projec-tions showed that it could generate $18,000 a year in average patron rental, and that its estimated aver-age patron donor revenue would be approximately $46,000. This would, under his projections, work out to an average return on investment of 12.5 percent per year, and the room itself could pay itself off within

PACC update: ‘Patron room’ will raise cost
By ANDy HOBBS
Up to three recreational mari-juana retail stores will be allowed in Federal Way, according to rules an-nounced last week by the Washing-ton State Liquor Control Board.
However, marijuana stores are still banned in Federal Way.
“We are in the process of review-
ing the Liquor Control Board’s proposed rules. However, the city’s position on business licensing remains the same,” city spokesman Chris Carrel told The Mirror in an email. “The city code prevents the city from issuing business licenses for activities that are illegal under local, state or federal law. Since marijuana sales remain illegal under federal law, should the city
receive an application for a busi-ness license for a marijuana store, the city would not issue a business license.”
In 2011, Federal Way issued moratoriums on three medical marijuana dispensaries that opened in city limits. Despite the passage of Initiative 502, which legalized marijuana in Washington after a

Vehicular homicide charges were filed against a driver who struck and killed a bicyclist last month in Federal Way.
SeaTac resident Dara Keo, 30, was arraigned Sept. 12 at the Regional Justice Center in Kent. Keo pleaded not guilty. He is being held on $250,000 bail.
The fatal collision occurred just before 11 a.m. Aug. 30 in the 28600 block of Military Road South. Keo was driving on the shoulder of the road when he slammed into a bicyclist, according to police documents. The impact knocked the vic-tim off his bike and into the middle of the center two-way turn lane.
Kent resident Craig B. Cronister, 44, suffered se-vere injuries to his head, neck and body. He was transported to Harbor-view Medical Center and died at 1:03 a.m. Aug. 31. A memorial service was

FRED, a new program that Federal Way Public Schools (FWPS) rolled out this past summer as a com-bination of a summer aca-demics and meals program, improved the participation rate for the meals program by almost 400 percent.
FRED, which stands for “Fun. Read. Eat. Dream.,” served nearly 41 percent of the 33,470 total summer meals, according to Mary Asplund, Nutrition Services Director for the school district. That equals 13,711 meals served by FRED.
“956 average meals were served each day, with 319 of those from FRED,” Asplund told the Federal Way School Board on Sept. 10.
Various community partners, among them the Multi-Service Center
(MSC) and Communities in Schools (CIS) also helped increase the reach of the summer meals/education program between 2012 and 2013, Asplund noted.
“That resulted in an almost 400 percent increase in meals served,” she said. “In 2012, there were 8,449 meals served at school sites only. In 2013, there were 33,470 meals served between FRED, our vended partners (MSC and CIS), and school sites. FRED has staying power with our children. The last day we served them was our second highest day.”
The new program, with its green repurposed buses featuring a frog on the side, visited high-need areas throughout Federal Way from June 24 to Aug. 23. The program ran Monday through Thursday, and provided children with

breakfast, lunch and a late-afternoon snack.
Initially, FWPS had planned to only run the program through Aug. 1, but the response was so positive that the program was extended beyond the initial dates, Asplund said.
Besides serving meals during the summer, FRED also focused on education for children who partici-pated, Asplund said.
“These kids were quietly eating and visiting. They were coloring, playing games, they were on the computers,” Asplund said.
It was this combination, Asplund believes, that gave FRED such drawing power.
Asplund said that 50 percent of FRED is funded
from a U.S. Department of Agriculture program, while the remainder came from donations by community groups, district funds, and partner organizations like United Way-Seattle/King County, the City of Federal Way, the Franciscan Foun-dation, CIS, South King Fire and Rescue, the Fed-eral Way Rotary, Federal Way Lions and others.
Asplund said those involved with FRED have ideas that include putting another bus into ser-vice, extending the days of operation to Monday through Friday or even into the weekends, running the program during the school year after school, and ex-panding the areas it serves.
Following is a sample from the Federal Way police log:• Hot dog removed from car: At 1:27 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 36000 block of 19th Way South, police received reports of a dog locked in a car in a parking lot. Police removed the dog and located the owner. A background check of the owner determined the owner had active warrants. The owner was arrested for the warrants and animal cruelty.• Man jumps from balcony: At 1:41 a.m. Sept. 8 in the 33000 block of 24th Avenue South, police responded to reports of a fight in a residence. Upon arrival, police heard loud screaming from inside and forced entry into the residence. A known male jumped from a bal-cony at the residence and fled the area upon police entry. The report notes that it was determined the male had a no-contact order with a person in the residence, and was also in violation of a firearm law.• Police respond six times to one couple: At 10:53 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 4900 block of SW 319th
Lane, a boyfriend and girlfriend got into an argument, and the girl-friend contacted police regarding the argument. Police eventually determined that the girlfriend had texted the boyfriend to come back to their residence. The report notes this was the sixth time in two days police had responded to this par-ticular couple.• Cellphone theft: At 3:55 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 2200 block of South Commons, a male in his early 20s came up to the juvenile victim and grabbed the victim’s cellphone from his hand. The report notes the suspect fled and was unable to be located.• Man tries to get dog, ends up arrested: At 6:34 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 33000 block of 8th Avenue South, a man came to pick up his dog from the city’s animal control department. During the process, it was discovered the man had active warrants. He was arrested without incident.• German shepherds stolen: At 7:01 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 28000 block of Military Road South, un-known suspects stole two German shepherds from an enclosure in the victim’s yard.• Woman robbed: At 8:44 p.m. Sept. 8 in the 31000 block of Pacific Highway South, a woman was
robbed of $1,300 in cash by an unknown suspect.• Another cellphone theft: At 11:56 a.m. Sept. 7 in the 31000 block of 23rd Avenue South, an un-known male grabbed the victim’s cellphone from their hand, and then fled to a car waiting nearby.• Man’s computer stolen while he’s in hospital: At 2:19 p.m. Sept. 7 in the 32000 block of Military Road South, the victim reported his computer had been stolen while he was in the hospital for an extended stay. According to the report, several people had ac-cess to the man’s apartment while he was in the hospital, although no one admitted to taking the computer.• Vehicle prowls: At 6:10 p.m. Sept. 7 in the 1600 block of SW 304th Street, three cars were bro-ken into in a parking lot while the vehicles’ owners attended a wed-ding at the location. According to the report, approximately $3,150 in personal items were stolen from the three vehicles.

The races for school board may be the most interesting in several years.
The economy is improving, the Legislature is stepping up with additional funding for education, there are new issues to debate, and there are good candidates.
With the improved economics also comes more discussion over priorities and more pressure on the candidates.
Although likely not intended, the Federal Way School Board’s travels — and the pay raise they gave the superin-tendent — brought increased public attention. Test scores, grading standards, charter schools and graduation rates hovering at 70 percent were already high on the list of issues. But now, money and travel have captured public attention because they set an understandable symbolic tone.
What should the priorities of your school district be?
Everyone wants a good superintendent, and the board was expressing its view that Rob Neu fits that description when they raised his salary by 22 percent. And most people want to pay a fair salary for a job that may be the most important in the community.
But what is fair? District observers countered that classroom supplies, transportation and pay raises for teachers and other staff are just as important.
Most people in our multi-cultural commu-nity recognize the need to prepare our students for a changing future.
However, board and superintendent trips to China, Australia, Korea and Indonesia this summer — along with a planned trip this
month to Scotland, England and Finland — raise that question to a new level due to the election. The trip to Europe has four board members going, and includes Angela Griffin, who is not seeking re-election.
In a budget of $215 million, the trips and salary increase are small line items for the school district. But to the
candidates and the public, they open the door to question priorities.
Ed Barney is seeking another term on the board and is its most senior member. He has served as chair and currently serves as legisla-tive liaison. His supporters point to his long service and believe his experience is critical to the board. He is active in the Republican party and other organizations. Barney is supportive of the board’s current direction and the super-intendent’s salary increase, as were all board members. He supports the Global Initiatives Project and is listed as going on the trip to Eu-rope. Barney is well known in the community and has previously run for the Legislature.
Barney is being challenged by Geoffery McA-nalloy, who believes it is time for fresh ideas. He has three children in Federal Way schools and has been active in PTSA. He was honored as volunteer of the year at his children’s school. He is active in the Democratic party.
School board wastes our money on trips
It is disheartening to read how our school board is wasting our district’s funds.
Superintendent Rob Neu seems to be doing a respectable job, but can anyone point to something he’s done to earn a $42,000-a-year raise? Has our graduation rate risen above 70 percent during his tenure? Is every student passing standard-ized testing?
Beyond this, I am appalled at the money being thrown at expensive overseas trips. Does our district really have $83,000 lying around for vacations to Asia and Europe when we don’t have enough textbooks in our classrooms?
In a world connected by technol-ogy, surely we can discover how the Scottish school system runs without most of the school board and the superintendent taking a taxpayer-funded trip there.
It seems that when the district wants more money, they portray the students as suffering from our district’s poverty, and yet when it comes to the wants of the adminis-tration and board, there’s plenty of money to be spread around.
In my eyes, every dollar in the district represents the hard work of those who live in our state and our
district, and should be treated with more respect. I will not vote for any incumbent school board member as they come up for re-election, and I encourage others to do the same.Shelley Mooth, Federal Way
Flawed approach to government surveys
I was delighted to see Matthew Jarvis’ column encouraging greater participation by citizens in local government, schools and utilities in last Friday’s Federal Way Mir-ror. His proposed approach was
through surveys — and while ini-tially this approach seems appeal-ing, it does have some flaws.
First — we already have multiple easy ways of citizens putting views to government. For example, all citizens can attend and speak at city council meetings. Matthew is aware of this, since he attended and spoke at the Federal Way City Council meeting the evening before his column was published. Oddly, he makes no mention of this open channel to expressing our views.
Further, email addresses and phone numbers for the mayor, city council members and staff are available through the city’s website — and similar access is available for the school district and other public

Among the thousands of posts about Miley Cyrus’ ac-tions at the MTV Video Music Awards, there are judgments of her, kudos for her, wonderings about her mental health, people weeping for her and still others praying for her.
There are also a much smaller number of posts about Robin Thicke (who was singing part of “Blurred Lines,” already mired in controversy over its misogynistic lyrics and video).
So what are smart parents to do?Parents have been concerned about musical
performances since Elvis and the Beatles, right on up through Madonna, Beyoncé and Lady Gaga.
We haven’t succeeded in changing the behavior (no matter how sensational and inappropriate) of rich, famous, media-driven, entertainers in the last century. What makes us think that venting on social media will change anything now? It won’t.
What we can do is talk about it, in person, with our kids. Here are some tips.
1. Use your parental power. Check www.com-monsensemedia.org for the scoop on movies, games, TV shows, websites and more. What ages are they appropriate for? What will your child see if he or she watches it/plays it? What ques-tions might you ask? Remember: MTV is not a network, and not subject to the same restrictions network channels are.
2. Monitor computers, phones and social media. Even if you don’t allow your child to watch the music awards on TV, it’s very likely many of them have at least seen pictures or part of Miley’s act on someone’s smartphone, tablet, or computer. Find out if they’ve heard about it and keep talking.
3. Watch with them. Refrain from judging and lecturing during a performance. Instead…
4. Engage their brains. Having a conversation with questions that require more than yes or no answers engages the part of the brain that needs the most practice — the thinking and decision-making part. News flash: this part doesn’t fully develop until age 25. If you want it to be strong in your child, it needs to work out on a regular basis, which means it needs the kind of exercise that comes from thinking and deciding how to answer questions and deciding how to behave — not the kind that comes from blowing off your parents because (eye roll) here they go again with their judging.
5. Ask questions. (Hint: choose a few from be-low and be curious, not judgmental, while asking)
• Do you see any differences in the behavior of the male and female performers?

entities. In contrast, for private companies it is often difficult or impossible to find email addresses for the CEO, board members or staff.
Second — surveys are costly to run, typically have very low response rates, and then must be followed up if to be respected. There is a cost to all of this, more so in Federal Way where our di-versity will probably require us to produce surveys in multiple languages. While Matthew preaches efficient government, he makes no mention of how these costs should be funded — extra taxes or reducing services like police perhaps?
Third — surveys done
by private sector organi-zations are not quite the palliative he suggests. Very infrequently, I see feedback and changes to practice. More often the survey is a marketing ploy to make consumers feel they are being listened to, or to find consumer contact details so that they can be contacted with future offers. As with government, much the best way of registering concerns and achieving change is to do it in person in a timely manner. There is little point about complaining about the bad bed in a hotel two weeks after the visit — complain while there, and often the room is changed.
So, all credit to Matthew for raising the issue that our public representatives and
staff need more feedback from citizens. However, let’s encourage more use of the channels that already exist rather than creating more work and cost for govern-ment.Graham Evans, Federal Way

Food trucks and downtown FW
A past column by editor Andy Hobbs from the Nov. 4, 2011, issue of the Federal Way Mirror got me think-ing about something:
“Speaking of enrich-ing Federal Way’s culture and economy, here’s some genuine food for thought.
A food truck festival fad is sprouting in several U.S. cities. For example, the Mayor’s Food Truck Fiesta in Tampa, Fla., kicked off last week with a bunch of wheeled restaurants doling out everything from tacos to burgers to sandwiches.”
My wife Karla and I had the fantastic opportunity to drive back from Florida in a “hot” merlot colored Nissan 350Z, or I should say the weather was hot, so hot in fact that we couldn’t put the top down at any point in trip. The coolest tempera-tures were found here in Federal Way, of course, on the day we pulled into our driveway. It was 96 degrees and screamingly beautiful.
On the trip, we used our smartphones to find
interesting places to visit, restaurants to tickle our palates, and hotels to rest our weary heads. But, as we were closing in on Portland, Ore., Karla was checking out places for lunch on her iPhone.
Portland has more than 500 food trucks/carts situ-ated in what they call pods, as small as three and as large as 15 or more.
We stopped at one that had roughly 12 dining opportunities clustered around a large lot.
There were all kinds of selections from pizza to some pretty fancy Asian plates. The prices were very economical, but the flavors were astronomical — or perhaps that should be “gastronomical.”
What a great opportunity for Federal Way to maxi-mize the AMC Theatres site for something many residents have been asking for and something that will definitely set Federal Way apart from its sister cities. It will easily fit within the scheme of development, and it’s extremely flexible in operation. And with the proposed fountain in that area and Mount Rainier as a backdrop, it will be enchantingly funtastic.Roger Flygare, Federal Way

• Are there different rules for guys and girls? If so, what are they? Why do you think they are different? Is it fair?
• Do you think this is cool? If so, why?
• Re: the public’s reaction to this year’s Video Music Awards — why are some people criticizing the 20-year-old woman and celebrating the older man (Robin Thicke, in this case)?
• Do you think drugs or alcohol had a part in shaping Miley’s or Robin’s judgment or behavior?
• If you were friends with either of them, what would you have told them before or after this?
• What values do you use to help you decide if something is right or wrong?
Even the best parents can’t protect their children from ever seeing a shocking media performance. Chil-dren and teens need to practice skills to help them think through situations and decide what they will do, despite the inappropriate behavior of others. Rather than disparaging celebrities, engage your kids’ brains and talk about it. It’s the right thing to do.

[ JOHNSON from page 4]
McAnalloy felt it was not appropriate to give the super-intendent such a high raise prior to pay raises for district teachers and staff. He also feels that while the Global Initiative may be valuable, sending four board members and the superintendent to Europe is too many people. He also disagrees with send-ing a retiring board member along. He wants to see more emphasis on classrooms and graduation rates.
In the race to replace retir-ing board member Angela Griffin, there are two candi-dates — Carol Gregory and Medgar Wells — who have worked in the education field.
Gregory’s resume is impressive and includes classroom work, the state superintendent’s office and the governor’s office. She has previously run for the state Legislature and will prob-ably run the best campaign. She is a Democrat. She wants to improve the graduation rates, ensure all students have access to a quality education and increase public participa-tion. She feels that Superin-tendent Neu may have de-
served a raise, but felt it was too high for only three years of tenure. She also feels the board needs to be more sensi-tive to the needs of employee groups who haven’t had pay raises. She doesn’t feel the Global Initiative project has been fully explained to the public, and she was surprised that four board members including Griffin were going on the Scotland trip.
Wells is principal at Over-comer Academy, a K-6 pri-vate school of 140 students. He has not been involved in the district prior to running for office, although he has a professional and personal history of education involve-ment. His departure from the Seattle school district seems unclear. Wells is supported by Tony Moore, who is Federal Way’s current board President. Like Gregory, Wells would have supported employee raises before con-sidering the superintendent’s raise, and would oppose Griffin being included in the Scotland trip. He does believe that sharing experiences and professional development have value.
This election will provide a community pulse on the di-
rection of the school district. Barney and the current ma-jority of board members have established a policy direction that has resulted in several awards and many positive acknowledgments. But grade standards, graduation rates, salaries and travel have raised other questions.
Political observers note that McAnalloy and Gregory, while not promoting dramat-ic change, could align with incumbent Claire Wilson to look at policymaking in a more critical way.
Wells, although he also ex-pressed concerns about travel and salary, seems more likely to follow current board’s direction. The superintendent isn’t likely to be part of any change in direction as he seems to have the support of all the candidates. But in what may be a pointed mes-sage to the board, the Federal Way Education Association (FWEA) has endorsed McA-nalloy and Gregory.
The key question to voters: Which way do we go from here?

All elementary schools in Federal Way will offer free all-day kindergarten by Sept. 30, thanks to an ad-ditional financial windfall.
On Aug. 23, the district discovered that its new LAP (local assistance program) allocation could include money for all-day kinder-garten, said Cindy Black, the district’s executive director of elementary education.
“So we ended up pulling in the seven remaining schools and said, ‘What do you think? What’s the reality of getting this started?’” Black said at the school board’s Sept. 10 meeting
The remaining schools’ administrators “jumped on board” and were “thrilled to have the opportunity” to offer all-day kindergarten to their students, Black said. She noted that Superin-tendent Rob Neu said the district should move cau-tiously, asking for a poll of parents of those students to see if it was feasible.
“So they did that (poll-ing), and very few people were unable to think their kids weren’t ready for this. The majority of them, su-permajority of them, were all on board,” Black noted.
Starting Sept. 30, three elementary schools — Green Gables, Enterprise and Meredith Hill — will have fully implemented their all-day classes going, and the district will have every school with all-day kindergarten. The other four elementary schools to adopt all-day kindergarten are Lakeland, Twin Lakes, Woodmont and Sherwood Forest.
“You know what that means for our kids and how it’s going to impact their education and opportunity, and we are so excited to have made this happen for
our district,” Black said.With the short prepara-
tion period because of the late timing on the funding, Black noted that there’s a transition program occur-ring for those parents and students who might not be up to the challenge quite yet.
“For those families that were not quite certain their kids were ready…or that they were ready, we created
an opportunity to transi-tion them on their
time so they didn’t have to make that call. They could start half-day, and
then we’ll work on stamina, for both the
moms and dads and the kids, to get them ready for all-day.”
Board member Claire Wilson, who specializes in early learning development with the Puget Sound Edu-cational Service District, said the expansion of all-day kindergarten is another step in the right direction for student learning in their youngest years.
“It helps us on our path-way…We’ve done the early learning work, so we know we’re creating that path-way for families,” she said. “And oftentimes, I don’t think we believe our kids can do what they can do, when they’re ready to do it. I’m very proud and just so excited.”
In a press release, Neu said these additional all-day classes will have a long-lasting impact on FWPS students.
“We are extremely pleased to be able to ac-celerate the state’s plan to make free all-day kinder-garten available to all stu-dents (in the state) within the next three years,” he said. “Improving our aca-demic outcomes at the high school level starts by getting kids off to a great start in their early years, and free all-day kindergarten is key to that.”

From staFF reports
The Federal Way Police Department (FWPD) lost one of its K-9 officers.
The dog known to friends, family and fellow officers as “Fax” died on Sept. 3 after battling cancer.
According to a biography put together by Fax’s han-dler, Officer Matt Novak:
“Fax, born Fax von den Herbstzeitlosen in Fran-kenburg, Germany, and was imported to the United States for police work at the age of one. Initially destined for a career with a Cana-dian police department, FWPD’s K-9 unit was the first to evaluate him.”
According to Novak, Fax immediately stood out because of his excep-tional drive and work ethic. Fax became a member of FWPD shortly after coming to the U.S.
Novak and Fax under-went the required rigorous training, and were certified as a generalist K-9 team.
Novak and Fax were tasked with the protection of his fellow officers and the community, and were most often deployed to track down and apprehend felons on the loose in the commu-nity. According to Novak’s bio, Fax assisted in the ap-prehension of 95 criminals in his lifetime/career, most of whom were wanted for serious, violent crimes.
The German shepherd was also responsible for locating 30 pieces of evidence instrumental in criminal prosecutions, and
was called out for assistance on 425 different occasions during his career.
One of Fax’s most important apprehensions came when Fax was called to track a homicide suspect in freezing temperatures and snow. Fax was able to locate the suspect, and the suspect’s murder weapon was also recovered, which resulted in a guilty sentence and a 31.5-year prison sen-tence for the suspect.
The loyal K-9 officer was also a mainstay in the com-munity, joining Novak as a goodwill ambassador for the police department by attending dozens of safety fairs and similar events throughout his career and lifetime.
“Fax was a loyal partner, friend, family member and protector of the commu-nity. His loss leaves a hole within the department and he will be missed by all,” Novak concluded in his bio of Fax.

Grace Church and south King Fire and rescue have been collecting school supplies for four years to benefit Federal Way area families in need. This year, Heritage Bank partnered with them to help get the word out to the community. On average, they are able to serve around 100 to 150 students with backpacks and school supplies between three to four schools in the Federal Way School District. Any leftover supplies go directly to the school district to distribute to the schools that are in need. They also assist the school district in cleaning up two schools a year. COURTESY PHOTO

BOYS TENNIS: Raiders ready to dominate Thomas Jefferson aims for state title
FOOTBALL WRAP: Season openersBY CASEY OLSON
Federal Way 62, Rogers 42The third-ranked Federal Way Eagles got a scare in
their season-opener Friday night at Puyallup’s Sparks Stadium. But, like they have done for the past two years, the Eagles found a way to win the South Puget Sound League South Division game. Federal Way exploded and scored 34 points in the second half to beat the Rogers Rams, 62-42.
The Eagles, who have won the last two SPSL South titles with unbeaten records, trailed by 15 points dur-ing the second quarter. Their last league loss came in 2010. Federal Way leaned on its star players against the Rams. Keenan Curran and Chico McClatcher led the Eagles to the victory. Curran, the Eagles’ quarter-back, finished with a career-high 274 yards on just 18 carries. McClatcher rushed 11 times for 102 yards. The pair also hooked up on a 53-yard pass.
The Rams bolted out to a 15-0 lead and led 29-28 at halftime. Rogers extended that lead when quarter-back Grayson Madland hooked up with Kyler Ooley on a 71-yard touchdown on their opening posses-sion, extending the lead to 36-28.
But it was all Federal Way from that point on. The Eagles tallied four consecutive touchdowns to put the game away. James Black scored on a 15-yard run, Da-vid Tiumalu ran back an interception 20 yards, Mc-Clatcher caught the 53-yard TD and Curran bolted 60 yards. Curran added another 51-yard touchdown run late in the game. Federal Way’s first-half touch-downs came on a 19-yard McClatcher run, a 3-yard Eric Ah Fua run, a 37-yard fumble return by Charlie Taumoepeau and a 10-yard TD run by Curran.
The Eagles hosted the Emerald Ridge Jaguars on Thursday (after press time) in another key SPSL South contest.

Since taking over the Thomas Jefferson High School program 23 years ago, head coach Andrew Buchan has compiled a record of 235-42.
Last year, the Raiders finished 10-0 in the SPSL Central, won the West Central District title and finished third at state. The program’s last loss in the SPSL came in 2008, a streak of 45 consecutive matches.
“We have three goals this year: win the SPSL, win WCD, win state,” Buchan said. “We have the talent and experience to make a run and will definitely give it our best effort. Winning state is uncharted territory for TJ tennis, but we are encouraged by last year’s finish at state and the vet-eran returners.”
Alex Chan returns for his sophomore year after finishing fifth at state last year. The four players who finished ahead of Chan are not returning to the court this season.
Also back will be state veterans Cameron Mar-tin and his older brother, Zach Martin, who finished fourth in doubles’ action at state. Also back are seniors Hakeem Clark and Vivek Ramanujan, who will play doubles.
Rounding out the varsity roster will be juniors Do-navon Gomez and Michael Ziccarelli.

erans,” Buchan said. “Our weakness is our depth. Although the top eight are very solid, the players below No. 3 doubles lack match experience.”
The Raiders also added another title last year when they won the Class 4A State
Academic championship with a grade-point average of over 3.8.
However, the biggest story of the boys tennis season doesn’t come from Jefferson, but Federal Way. Eagles senior Mitch Stewart will not be defending his
state singles championship this year. Stewart chose not to turn out for the tennis team.
Stewart won his sec-ond consecutive Class 4A singles championship last spring at the Columbia

Girls golfThe Thomas Jefferson High School
girls golf team was the class of the South Puget Sound League a season ago. The Raiders finished a perfect 10-0 in the SPSL Central Division and fourth at the Class 4A State Girls Golf Championships.
Jefferson hopes to continue that success again this year and will be counting on Han-na Yi to accomplish the goal. The junior finished in seventh place at the state tournament a season ago after firing a first-round 80, followed with an 83 in the second round.
Head coach Jim von Doehren will also count on newcomers Angelica Bogue and Jenna Mullar to score points.
“If the girls come to practice every day and are willing to focus on their skills, we should be competitive,” von Doehren said. “Our expectations are that we are competitive in the SPSL Central.”
But the Raiders aren’t the only Federal Way school district team that claimed a state trophy last season. The Decatur Gators also return a state podium finisher in junior Celia Beyke.
Last season, as a sophomore, Beyke finished an impressive fifth at the Class 3A Girls State Golf Tourna-
ment at the Lewis River Golf Course. Beyke’s individual fin-
ish led the Gators to a fourth-place team trophy.
Taylor Trembly and Mi-randa Lehman also played at
the state championships for the Gators, and both made the cut. The Beamer girls should drop off a
little after finishing 6-4 a season ago. The Titans return Hannah Prince and Kyra Adams, and have four newcomers.
“We have some young, inexperi-enced newcomers,” head coach Justin Mentink said.
Boys golfOn the boys’ side, Jefferson is also
loaded to make a run at the SPSL title. The Raiders will be led by state veteran A.J. Seo, who failed to make
the cut by one stroke. Jefferson will also count on Sean Ye, Eugene Kim, David Jang and Jacob Ward to score points.
The Decatur boys should also fin-ish near the top of the SPSL 3A Divi-sion. Head coach Kevin Olson brings back an impressive group of four in senior Carsten Olufson, juniors Spencer Clapp and Nick Brainard, and sophomore Devin Martinez. Clapp finished 17th at state last year.
Newcomers Nick Zellerhoff, Danny Klein and Dalyn James should also provide some depth for the Gators.
“We have four strong returning players, but because of our lack of depth, we are asking some inexpe-rienced young players to develop quickly and play under varsity match pressure,” Olson said.
“We should be competitive in our league if Spencer and Carsten play well. Our top players should be mak-ing a run at qualifying for the state tournament.”
The Beamer boys will be leaning on Dax Wallat to lead the way during the SPSL Central season.

Loudest stadium in the world? Seahawks fans need ear plugs this weekendFROm StAFF REpORtS
When football fans converge on Sept. 15 for the Seattle Seahawks home-opener against the San Francisco 49ers, they can expect something more than a football game. They can expect so much noise that it could damage their hearing for life.
CenturyLink Field could become the loudest stadium in the world, with noise levels expected to ex-ceed 130 decibels – a level that can cause permanent hearing loss.
A fan group named Vol-ume 12 has applied to the Guinness Book of World Records for CenturyLink to be certified as the world’s loudest stadium, with the goal of topping the current record of 131.76 decibels
set at a 2011 soccer game in Turkey.
While the record-break-ing attempt will enthrall some fans, it could present a health risk for others. Exposure to noises exceed-ing 100 decibels can harm hearing after as few as 15
minutes, according to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
That’s why hi HealthInnovations
is giving away 10,000 ear plugs to people as they
enter the stadium, help-ing football fans to enjoy the world-record attempt while maintaining their hearing health. Dr. Lisa Tseng, CEO/audiologist of hi HealthInnovations, says people should limit expo-sure to loud noises, such as music, lawn mowers, or motorcycles, to no more than 20 minutes at a time. When attending concerts or sporting events, consider wearing hearing protection.

Thomas Jefferson 32, Kentlake 7
The Raiders kicked off their season with a big-time win over the perennial power Kentlake Falcons on Friday at Federal Way Memorial Stadium.
The Falcons, who finished 6-4 a season ago, were picked by the league’s coaches to finish at or near the top of the SPSL North, while TJ was predicted to finish near the bottom.
The Raiders scored 20 points in the second quarter and got a pair of touch-downs from junior running back Zach Grayson.
Grayson led off the scoring with a 32-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, but the Raiders missed the extra point. Kentlake then went right down the field to tally its only touchdown of the night to take a 7-6 lead.
But it was all TJ from there. The Raiders took the lead for good when Heng Yon returned a Kentlake fumble 39 yards for a touchdown. Senior fullback Shane Seumae scored on
a 6-yard run, and Grayson caught a 6-yard touchdown pass from senior quarter-back Niko DelaCruz late in the second quarter to give Jefferson a 26-7 halftime lead.
Lonyea Jones collected the lone score of the second half when he caught a 10-yard pass from DelaCruz in the fourth quarter.
Defensively, the Raiders were led by Alex Norton, who forced two fumbles and recovered two more.
The Raiders host the Kentwood Conquerors in a huge early-season SPSL North clash Friday night. Kentwood downed seventh-ranked Auburn in its opening game.
Puyallup 37, Beamer 21The Todd Beamer Titans
held a pair of leads last Saturday against the Puyal-lup Vikings, but couldn’t hold them before losing the SPSL South Division game at Federal Way Memorial Stadium. Beamer jumped on top of the Vikings in the first quarter when quarter-back Taylor Davis hit Chris-tian Stafford on a 21-yard

touchdown pass. Puyallup battled back with a pair of touchdowns to take a 14-7 lead. Davis and Stafford hooked up again, this time on a 75-yarder to tie the game. Beamer’s Brody Martinez then scored on a 13-yard run to put the Ti-tans back in the lead in the second quarter, 21-14.
It was all Puyallup from there. The Vikings tallied a pair of touchdowns before halftime to take a 28-21 lead into the locker room.
The Titans couldn’t stop Puyallup quarterback Bren-dan Illies and receiver Levi Jordan. Illies finished with more than 400 yards pass-ing and four touchdowns, and Jordan caught nine passes for 257 yards and three TDs.
Wilson 32, at Decatur 20
The Decatur Gators and Wilson Rams continued their postponed game Saturday night at Federal Way Memorial Stadium,
with Wilson dominating the second half to run away with the non-league win.
The game actually started Thursday night, but was suspended in the second quarter because of thunder and lightning in the area.
Decatur scored three touchdowns in the second quarter to take a 20-12 lead into halftime. But the second half was all Wilson. The Rams outscored the Gators, 20-0, in the third and fourth quarters to get the win.
Decatur got a pair of touchdowns from Isaiah Diggs. The first came on a 42-yard pass from junior quarterback Isaiah Hatch and the second was a 10-yard run. The Gators’ third touchdown came on a 15-yard run from Devin Brown.
Wilson’s Isaiah Simpson tallied three touchdown runs in the second half.
Decatur traveled to Renton on Thursday night (after press time) for an-other non-league contest.

Stewart dominated the com-petition by not losing a set in his four matches and beating Gon-zaga Prep’s Alex Marchinkowski in the championship match, 6-2, 6-1. The win also completed Stewart’s second unbeaten season in a row. His only loss came in the state title match during his fresh-man season.
The Eagles, however, do return seniors Daniel Chung and Luke Newman, along with juniors Thomas Hayashi and Yun Lee, from a team that finished 1-9 in
the SPSL Central.Beamer should improve on its
3-7 record from a season ago un-der the direction of Pat Nam. The Titans bring back junior Max Dal-rymple, Ken Chambers and Ben Arata, along with sophomores Brad Hoefel and Charlie Wong.
The Decatur Gators, under the direction of John Cassens, hope to keep the momentum going that they had during the latter part of last season. After starting the SPSL 3A season with an 0-7 record, the Gators won their last three matches, including a win over Peninsula to knock them out of the league championship.

statewide vote in November 2012, the city’s ban stands.
The liquor board ap-proved a total of 334 marijuana retail outlets statewide, with 61 slated for King County. Seattle was approved for 21 stores, with 11 “at large” stores approved for the county.
A formula based on population determined the
number of retail locations for each municipality. Other cities such as Kent — which was approved for three stores by the liquor board — have maintained moratoriums on recreation-al marijuana outlets.
“If there’s a moratorium in the city, it’s not going to stop us from granting a license for a location, but we do want them to be in compliance with local regu-
lations,” said Brian Smith, liquor board spokesman.
Smith reiterated the board’s focus of creating a “tightly regulated market with emphasis on public safety and restricting youth access.”
Although licensed and regulated by the state, the stores will be private-sector businesses. The first stores are expected to open in June 2014 with the state’s
first legally grown and pro-cessed marijuana crop. The stores could generate up to $2 billion in tax revenue statewide during the first five years, according to the liquor board. I-502 does not address medical marijuana outlets, which are exempt from the regulations ap-plied to recreational outlets.
In August, the U.S. Department of Justice is-sued a memorandum that
held Sept. 8.
Keo was arrested at the scene for investigation of vehicular assault and was booked into King County Jail. Witnesses told police that Keo was swerving on the road in his Honda Civic while traveling southbound.
According to police, Keo had a hard time maintain-ing his balance, and was also slurring his speech and going through mood swings. Keo allegedly told a Federal Way police officer at the scene that “most people would have run away, but I stayed and checked on ‘her’ to see if ‘she’ was OK.” According
to documents, Keo passed a breathalyzer test with a .000 blood alcohol content (BAC). However, the officer believed Keo was under the influence of drugs. Keo admitted to the officer that he was a habitual user of marijuana and prescription drugs like Percocet, Oxyco-done and Suboxone.
A warrant was obtained for a sample of Keo’s blood, and results are still pending with the Washington State Toxicology Laboratory. Keo has no known criminal history, although he was caught driving without insurance or a valid license in 2008, according to docu-ments. He received a valid driver’s license in Oct. 2012.

recognized the autonomy of states like Washington and Colorado to enforce their own laws related to legal marijuana cultivation, sales and regulation.
The memo noted that federal enforcement priori-ties will focus on preventing the distribution of mari-juana to minors; preventing revenues from benefit-ing criminal enterprises; preventing marijuana from being used as a cover for criminal activity; prevent-ing cultivation and use of marijuana on public lands and/or federal property; preventing drugged driving; preventing violence related to cultivation and distribu-tion; and preventing the spread of marijuana to other states.
State timelineThe liquor control board
announced the following timeline in regards to new rules for legal marijuana.
• Oct. 9: A public hearing will be held on the pro-posed rules, with time and
location to be announced.• Oct. 16: The board will
adopt or reject the pro-posed rules.
• Nov. 16: The rules will become effective.
• Nov. 18: The board will begin accepting applica-tions for three types of licenses: producer, proces-sor and retailer.
• Dec. 1: Deadline for rules to be complete, as mandated by state law.
• Dec. 18: Deadline for license applications.

A steel beam from the World Trade Center, along with a rock from the crash site in Shanksville, Pa., will form the centerpiece of a future 9/11 memorial in Federal Way.
The memorial will be built at South King Fire and Rescue Station 64, located on South 320th Street, just east of I-5.
Originally scheduled to open this year, construction on the project was delayed
due to funding and changes in design, said Lt. Chris Burdyshaw. A commit-tee is finalizing plans for the memorial and seeks a building permit. Burdyshaw anticipates a dedication for the site next year on Sept. 11, 2014.
The memorial will also include a stalwart pear tree in tribute to the only tree that survived at Ground Zero in New York City.
Nearly 3,000 people — including 343 firefight-ers — died in the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
On that date, members of the Islamic group al-Qaida hijacked four passenger jets and crashed them into both World Trade Center towers, the Pentagon in Washing-ton, D.C., and a field in Pennsylvania.
Two years ago, South King Fire’s Lt. Scott Mahlen and firefighter Sven Schievink drove to New York to retrieve the steel beam, which was stored in a warehouse at JFK Interna-tional Airport.
Inside the warehouse was evidence from the suicide attacks on the twin towers. There were rows of fire trucks and smashed police cars, along with a piece of jet engine from an airplane that crashed into one of the skyscrapers.
Mahlen and Scheivink loaded the steel beam
onto a trailer with run-ning boards that listed all the victims in the attacks. When they parked at Ground Zero, random peo-ple came up to the trailer to point out family members and share stories.
“Ten years later, the feel-ings were still just as raw back there as if it had just happened,” Mahlen said of the 2011 journey.
As the firefighters drove the steel beam back to Fed-eral Way, the trailer caught the attention of passing motorists on the interstate, Mahlen said. Even at 60 mph, other vehicles would crowd around the trailer to get a glimpse of the beam.
During the 2011 trip, the firefighters also picked up a rock from Shanksville, Pa., with help from the National Park Service. The cracks on
the rock resulted from the impact of United Airlines Flight 93, which crashed into a field, killing all 44 people on board including the four hijackers.
One of the passengers aboard that flight was Todd Beamer, who helped lead a revolt against the hijackers with the battle cry, “Let’s roll.” Beamer is the name-sake for Todd Beamer High
School, which opened in Federal Way in 2003.
Learn more• The 9/11 memorial in
Federal Way is expected to cost $25,000. Businesses and residents who wish to donate may call (253) 946-7240 or email [email protected]. Extra proceeds will go to-ward 9/11 victim funds.

“When you come into our facility, you’re going to see that room, and you’re going to want to come in. So there’s an element that helps us in terms of cash flow for this project,” he added.
Santos noted that cost projections for the proj-ect had lowered since the last presentation, from $31,750,000 to $31,350,000. If the patron room is included in the project, that total price tag would be ap-proximately $31,850,000.
“This was driven with great rigor to make sure that we’re building the appropriate facility for the project,” Santos said. “We’re not trying to gold-plate it, but also (want to) make it a special place.”
There is no timeline for building the PACC, which
is slated for the abandoned Toys R’ Us site on 20th Avenue South. The city has promised to build the project without debt.
With the addition of the patron room bumping up the total price to $31.85 million, the city would still need to make up a dif-ference of approximately $12.9 million, according to figures provided by Patrick Doherty, economic devel-opment director.
Doherty said that as it stands, the city envisions it could make that difference up with the Federal Way Coalition for the Per-forming Arts’ (FWCPA) capital campaign effort, and through the federal government’s New Markets Tax Credit Program. The city is hoping FWCPA can raise approximately $5.75 million, while the New Markets program could cover $7.2 million. There’s
hope that the New Markets program will be an effective source of money for the project, Doherty said.
The next phase of the project will likely be a land use permit at a cost of about $65,000, Doherty said.
FundraiserFWCPA’s Joann Piquette
was also on hand to pres-ent to the council on the group’s fundraising efforts. She said the group has gotten pledges worth ap-proximately $477,500 and has been working on grants that could potentially total out to $1.5 million or so. FWCPA is also planning on a concert/fundraising drive soon, she added.
The fundraising rally will begin at 2 p.m. Nov. 23 at Saghalie Middle School and will feature six local per-forming groups, she said.

[ PACC from page 1]
By GREG ALLMAIN
The Federal Way City Council held a special meeting on Sept. 5 to review the proposed Performing Arts and Conference Center (PACC) and the project’s progress to this point. The meeting included a public comment session after presentations by city staff and the development team from Lorax Partners and LMN Architects.
A variety of concerns — from those both for and against the PACC — were raised. Concerns ranged from culture to parking to the proposed project’s costs.
Resident H. David Kaplan said he was wholeheartedly in favor of the PACC, be-lieving it could be an economic catalyst.
“The breadth of activities that could be held at such a facility extends beyond the basic needs of the city itself,” he said. “For example, the Lynnwood convention center is currently holding a week-long bridge tournament attended by people from all over the country. I know of Federal Way people who are staying there for the entire week, eating in (Lynnwood’s) restaurants, and shopping in (Lynnwood’s) stores.”
Resident Byron Hiller said his concerns mostly focus on running the facility.
“I don’t fear building the facility, I fear running it. The facility management, I don’t think it’s reflected in the numbers,” he said, referencing a pro forma budget outline provided at the Sept. 5 meeting. “Either the numbers are dumbed down, or they’re missing key elements…If you were to get this facility built, it’d be a great thing for Federal Way, but…operating it (is) going to be a little more of a challenge. Let’s look at our Federal Way Community Center as one example of that.”
Norma Blanchard raised the question why this project isn’t being put to a vote of Federal Way citizens.
Mayor Skip Priest said one reason why the issue has not been put on the ballot is because of the council’s intent to not seek traditional methods for funding large pub-lic works, like Federal Way Public Schools did last year with its levy to rebuild Federal Way High School. Priest also said citizens
still have power over the process when it comes to voting for the council.
“To some extent, there’s always a vote,” he said. “It’s called electing city council members. ... At least up until now, because there were going to be no additional funds needed from the taxpayers, because of other devices, that has not been an issue that’s been raised.”
Lynda Jenkins, a 51-year resident of Fed-eral Way, said the PACC would be out of place in the city’s blue-collar environment.
“I look around Federal Way, I walk around picking up beer cans. I see a lot of trashy places, really trashy. And places that are vacant, that don’t have a lot of business,” she said. “And yet, we have people wanting this now for everybody. I don’t think every-body wants this….I just don’t think you’re going to fill it up with the average person. I don’t think they want it, I don’t think they care about it. How many people are here? Is this representative of the average citizen(s) of Federal Way? I don’t think so.”
Jim Burbidge, husband of Councilmem-ber Jeanne Burbidge, said he supports the PACC, but is concerned that local perform-ing arts groups might be left in the cold.
“One of my concerns is that this per-forming arts facility remain economically viable for the performing arts groups in our community,” he said. “I see the total revenue for the theater rental is $147,750 for a year, the first year. I belong to the Federal Way Chorale. How much is it going to cost the Federal Way Chorale to have two concerts in there in the fall and in the spring? How much is it going to cost for the symphony to have a concert there?”
