It’s coming. Just look for the blue-and-gold Grand Chapi-teau.

That’s the Cirque du Soleil’s big top, which will rise to the sky this Thursday and stand tall in Marymoor Park for 46 days. Inside, the 50-member troupe will perform its latest creation, “Amaluna,” which is set on a mysterious island governed by Goddesses, guided by the cycles of the moon and protected by Valkyrie warrior women, who also fly high with their aerial talents.

From Jan. 31-March 17, the performers — most donning lavish costumes — will display their acrobatic/street enter-tainment talents while dancing, sliding in and out of a water bowl and jumping onto a tightrope, unicycle, teeterboard and other apparatuses, often contorting their bodies and always pushing their athleticism to the limit.

It’s been about five months since the U.S. Postal Ser-vice (USPS) closed its downtown Redmond post office and moved retail operations to Southeast Redmond and officials said things have been going well.

Ernie Swanson, a spokesperson for the USPS’s Seattle district, said there were some initial questions and con-cerns from customers about having to drive further east to the post office, but not anymore.

“It seems any concerns or apprehension have gone away,” he said.

Despite a less-centralized location, Swanson said post office workers do not think there has been any real drop in customers at the Southeast Redmond site and they were very busy during the holidays.

The move to 7241 185th Ave. N.E. came after an unsuccessful search for a new downtown location as a

Changes are coming to the Redmond Fire De-partment (RFD) as two of the top jobs will become vacant this month.

Fire Chief Kevin Don-nelly will be retiring from the RFD with his last day set for Jan. 31. In addi-tion, Deputy Fire Chief Bill Newbold has left the department for a position

at the Bellingham Fire Department. His last day was earlier this week.

City of Redmond May-or John Marchione said he and Donnelly began hav-ing conversations about the fire chief ’s leaving in mid-December 2012. Marchione said Donnelly wants to travel with his wife and spend time with his grandchildren, adding that Donnelly had not foreseen this opportunity when he accepted the job with RFD in March 2011.

Most people tend to associate Girl Scouts with cookies rather than science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), but members of two local troops are doing their part to change this.

From building bridges to building robots, these young ladies are proving science can be fun.

BRIDGING THE SCIENCE GAPMaggie Duffy, a Red-

mond High School (RHS) senior and member of Girl Scout Troop 43266, is organizing and leading two mechanical engineer-ing workshops for middle school students. The two-day workshops will be held at Evergreen Middle

School (EMS) and Redmond Middle School (RMS).

The workshop at EMS, 6900 208th Ave. N.E., will be held from 3-5 p.m. on Feb. 1 and 22. The workshop at RMS, 10055 166th Ave. N.E., will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Feb. 2 and 23. Aimed toward sixth- through eighth-graders, the workshop is $20. To reg-ister, visit www.redmond.gov/register and enter code 44329 for the EMS work-shop or code 44330 for the RMS workshop.

The workshop, Tiny Truss, is part of Duffy’s Gold Award. This 80-hour community service project is the Girl Scout equivalent to the Boy Scouts’ Eagle

Scout ranking.Workshop at-

tendees will learn the basics of con-struction and what makes a structure strong and be given the task to build a small truss bridge using coffee stirrers, glue and

paper. The bridges will be tested for their integrity and weight-bearing capacity on the second day of the workshop.

“So we smash them, pretty much,” Duffy said about the bridges.

Although Duffy is graduating at the end of the school year, City of Redmond teen programs administrator Ken Wong said they plan to continue her work by offering pro-grams emphasizing STEM education.

Duffy presented her ideas for Tiny Truss to the Redmond Youth Partner-ship Advisory Committee (RYPAC) in October and Wong said they liked the concept of the program and addressing the need for more STEM programming.

“I think young people like Maggie, who want to make a difference for others, are step-ping up,” he said. “Initially this may be a project that she has to complete but it has become a passion that she wants (to) share with others. What we like is that she wants it to be sustainable and that is what RYPAC will try to do based on teen interests.”

Wong said he is not sure yet whether RYPAC will continue the Tiny Truss workshop or if they will offer other STEM-related programs.

Duffy said she chose to do this workshop for her Gold Award because she participat-ed in one like it when she was younger and it was fulfilling to see something she made stand up to natural forces.

“That’s what got me into math and science,” she said. “Before that…it wasn’t appli-cable to anything I was doing.”

Duffy said she wanted to focus her workshop on middle schoolers because there aren’t many programs and activities at that level to get students

interested in science, whereas there are science fairs at the elementary level and various clubs and internship opportu-nities at the high school level.

A HANDS-ON APPROACHAs with Duffy, science and

math became much more interesting to Katrina Sanko and Jenna Kaufman after they were able to see a practical use for it.

The two girls are part of a six-member team called the Mustache Bunnies represent-ing Redmond’s Girl Scout Troop 41295 in the First Lego League (FLL), a program that challenges participants to design, build and program an autonomous robot to perform various tasks in competition. The first-time team — whose remaining members are Alexis Albay, Nicole Repede, Kathryn Hilbert and Melody Hanley — recently competed in a regional competition last month and have advanced to the Western Washington Championship in February.

“So not bad for a group of rookies,” said Tom Sanko,

Katrina’s father and one of the team’s coaches.

Sanko said Girl Scouts of Western Washington places special emphasis on STEM education and offers financial support to troops participat-ing in such programs, includ-ing FLL.

The Mustache Bunnies were formed after members partici-pated in a robotics club while attending Benjamin Rush El-ementary School in Redmond. The girls, now all in sixth grade and attending different middle schools throughout the Lake Washington School District, reunited after Sanko and another parent stepped up to be coaches.

Katrina and Jenna both said they already enjoyed science before they joined the robotics club at Ben Rush, but their participation in the club defi-nitely changed the way they viewed science and math.

Katrina said a lot of the science they study in school is more nature based such as natural disasters and land-forms. Robotics is a more technical and hands-on ap-

proach.“I really think I like the

more technical side of (sci-ence) because it can be more fun and involving,” she said. “You don’t really get to make landforms.”

Jenna agreed, saying she particularly enjoyed learning how to program their robot to perform different tasks. She added that programs like FLL are a different way to learn sci-ence and could get more kids interested in the subject.

In addition to their robot, the Mustache Bunnies also had to give a presentation on a research project addressing a specific problem. This year’s theme was “Senior Solutions,” aimed at the challenges that senior citizens face in accom-plishing daily tasks.

The team came up with an anklet with an ultrasonic sen-sor that would vibrate to warn seniors of possible obstacles in their path that may cause them to trip.

“They actually had it work-ing,” Sanko said. “(It was) very clever, and they did that completely on their own.”

Community BRIEFS

www.redmond-reporter.com[4] January 18, 2013

Rosa Parks Elementary School up on Redmond Ridge is usually in the news about being overcrowded with students.

I’d been up there for a night meeting in September to speak with parents and Superintendent Traci Pierce about the issue. Everyone I met with was talkative and passionate about wanting students to learn in a comfortable atmosphere.

The students are fervent about learning, as well.

On Monday morn-ing, I returned to Rosa Parks and met this time with third-grade instructor Alyssa Wa-chtveitl and 26 of her students to discuss journalism in her newspaper class.

When I arrived, Wachtveitl handed me a copy of their impressive paper, The Rosa Parks Reporter, and I sat in front of the class for the next 45 minutes and answered an array of the students’ questions about the newspaper business.

I’ve done this sort of Q-and-A thing before — with both adults and kids — and I must say that this was one of the most inspiring meetings I’ve had yet.

Right from the start, students raised their hands to ask their intelligent questions — and for the full 45 minutes, I was talking nonstop about reporting, writing, organiz-ing a work week, meeting deadlines, taking

photos and more.I hope I sounded intelligent myself and

maybe inspired some of these students to take a crack at a journalism career.

As I looked out at the students — many of whom were wearing pajamas to mark Spirit Week — I realized that it was around third grade when I began writing stories, as well. I first chronicled my youth soccer team’s results in The Dribble, our league’s magazine. I then moved on to writing re-ports on rock bands for my school’s news-paper in sixth grade, and continued on my

journalistic path in high school, college and beyond.

From what I saw of the 26 young scribes at Rosa Parks on Monday, I know the future of journalism will be in good hands with these students.

And with Wachtveitl leading the way as editor-in-chief of her classroom, I’m sure there will be plenty of solid stories in The Rosa Parks Reporter to come and, of course, in the publications that these stu-dents choose to write for when they leave Rosa Parks and take on the world.

Background checks should be required for all gun sales

First off, let me say I am not opposed to hunting, target shooting or the possession of a gun. Farmers need guns for the control of pests. What I fail to understand is the desire or need to own an assault weapon with a high-capacity magazine. Such weapons are designed for the military — for mass destruction of life. Where do you draw the line — a rocket or grenade launcher? Machine guns were outlawed long ago.

When I read that that some of the children in Newtown were riddled with as many as 16 bul-lets (the kind that are designed to fracture bones and macerate flesh and organs) I was sickened, as were most Americans.

The rush to buy such weapons of mass destruction increased dramatically following that incident, resulting from those fearing that it would cause arms restrictions. Those Nean-derthal idiots with testosterone poisoning, who were vowing to take up arms against the govern-ment, should that occur, are the least desirable persons to be in possession of weapons of any kind.

Background checks should be required for all gun sales, including private sales. This would necessitate the registration of guns, similar to that of car registration.

If you own a car, it must be registered with the state. You must have a license to drive it and pass a test to obtain that license. The registration must be transferred if you sell it.

Australia was mentioned by one of the recent letters to the editor as a failure in gun control.

I disagree. After several high-profile multiple murders there, the government banned semi-automatic and automatic weapons and had a compulsory buy-back program. Homicide and suicide by firearms dropped dramatically. America had 30,000 deaths by firearms in 2012. That is equivalent to almost half the population of Redmond.

I think assault weapons and high-capacity magazines should be outlawed. We should have a limited time buy-back program for them and any person found to be in possession of them should be fined and prosecuted.

The obstacle to federal gun control is political, not constitutional. Even Justice Scalia has said that the Second Amendment should not stop the U.S. from banning certain weapons, that the amendment leaves room for gun control.

We can’t prevent every incident from happen-ing. Does that mean we should do nothing?Gail Bjorkman, Redmond

Gun-control discussion, Part 2In the Jan. 11 Redmond Reporter, Dick Bowne

wrote that when it comes to gun violence, “de-ranged, criminally-inclined and those in need of heavy-duty anger management” are the problem. Shari Newton adds that “guns do not kill people, people kill people.” As such, gun-rights sup-porters should be able to agree with gun-control advocates that it would make sense to close major loopholes in our program of background checks (concerning gun shows and private sales), so that it is, in fact, less easy for criminals and unstable individuals to acquire guns.

Likewise, I wonder if Dick Bowne or Shari Newton are in favor of citizens owning tanks, missile launchers or grenades? Personally I think it would be a heck of a lot of fun to own an M1 tank, and maybe blast targets with its 120mm cannon out behind my house. But even though it would be fun (and a big help when the zombie apocalypse arrives), I’m not sure society should allow me to do that. I suppose there would be a lot of broken windows in the neighborhood, if nothing else.

In fact I imagine that Mr. Bowne and Ms. Newton probably agree that it is reasonable for some limits to be placed on the ownership of military-style weaponry. And if that is the case, then perhaps they would also agree that it’s reasonable to ask whether the right to own guns should necessarily extend to weapons such as automatic assault rifles and large-capacity maga-zines. These are weapons designed specifically for the mass killing of large numbers of humans, and not for hunting or personal self-defense.

As a matter of fact I’ve seen no serious national proposals in the wake of Newtown for broad restrictions on citizens owning or carry-ing guns. The discussion has been centered on placing reasonable limits on specialized mili-tary-style weaponry far beyond any legitimate sporting or recreational use, and on making sure that the “bad guys” don’t have as many loop-holes available to them to acquire guns without the existing checks being applied. These are the kinds of sensible measures that the gun-control advocates, gun owners and the NRA should all be able to support. Eric Johnson, Redmond

CRIME ALERTThis week’s…

Police Blotter

www.redmond-reporter.com[6] January 18, 2013

In 2011, I spent six months hiking the Appa-lachian Trail from Georgia to Maine. Here are some things I learned along the way that lead to a happier and healthier life.

1. “Hike your own hike.” Hikers use this phrase as a reminder to ourselves and each other to respect our own progress, honor our own journey, make our

own decisions. It is easy to compare yourself to others and believe that they are faster, more efficient, stron-ger, better. Every day, try to trust yourself and do your best as you travel your own path. You deserve your own respect, no matter where you are on your journey.

2. “Don’t carry more than you need.” It took me almost three months of la-boring under a ridiculously heavy pack to realize that I was making life harder than it needed to be by carry-ing useless weight. In my day to day life, I find that I am sometimes burdened by worries, anxiety and negative thoughts. When I think about those things as extra weight slowing me down, I find relief by taking a deep breath, prioritizing my thoughts and shedding those heavy, useless feel-ings. The lighter you are in your heart, the lighter you are on your feet.

3. “Appreciate the small things.” I remember the joy of finding some gummy bears lying on the ground near a fallen tree one day while hiking. Just a few pieces of candy in the dirt became the highlight of my day. Now that I’m back in the “real” world, I try to ap-preciate all the small things

Successful hiking and healthy living

“I’m really nervous about seeing you so soon after my surgery.”

I suppose I’ve been working with acute trau-

ma for such a long time that this statement kind of took me by surprise. How-ever, my client, “Jim” (not his real name) had every right to be nervous! He’d just underwent his third back surgery three weeks prior to seeing me, and wasn’t sure what I could do for him. Of course with such a recent surgery, I’m not going to do the “tra-

ditional” type of massage that most people think about. But Jim didn’t know that — I’m not sure what his doctors had advised him about massage. All I knew was that I needed to make him feel comfort-able before even laying my hands on him, so I let him know that my own husband has had multiple surgeries, and I’ve been able to help him heal from them so I’m well versed in treating acute injuries. (Acute is a fancy word for “recent.”)

This really shifted Jim’s nervousness into reas-surance, and I furthered this energy by letting him know exactly what I would be doing before actually

doing it: manual lymphat-ic drainage, or MLD to us massage nerds, a very light, non-invasive tech-nique which helps reduce swelling and minimize scar tissue formation. It keeps swelling (“edema” to nerds) at bay while maintaining mobility and preserving range of mo-tion. Because it is non-in-vasive, it can be done very frequently after surgery or any other kind of trauma (accidents, falls, etc.).

As I was massaging and explaining the benefits of MLD, Jim asked, “How soon after your husband’s surgery did you start mas-saging him?” and was a bit surprised that I answered, “The day of the surgery.”

I wasn’t able to directly address the surgical site, but was able to prepare his lymphatic system to receive the extra swelling, which helped him heal quickly. Even the surgeon, a massage skeptic, had to comment on my husband’s great healing ability.

Jim immediately no-ticed benefits after only a 30-minute session, and is very eager to get on my table again! I am honored to help facilitate a healing environment for him.

Think massage is just about feeling good for a few hours? Remember, it’s an ancient healing technique that has many fans, even Hippocrates, the father of modern

medicine. He strongly ad-vocated its use in getting the body to heal quickly. It’s a craft I am passionate about, continue to learn and be amazed by, and am absolutely enthusias-tic to share and educate with both doctors and the general public. Be sure to include massage therapy into your regular health maintenance routine — your body will thank you!

I took for granted before — a clear view of the mountains, how good it feels to take a shower after a hard workout and having my friends and family within hugging range.

4. “Help is there when you ask for it, generosity is there when you need it.” I consider myself to be pretty resilient. On the trail however, I faced many times when I just plain needed help. Whether it was a ride into town to resup-ply, an encouraging word

to overcome a moment of weakness, or something to eat when I didn’t have enough in my food bag, I found that when I asked for help, people around me gave selflessly and eagerly. Trusting the warmth and generosity of others is one of the best things I learned on the trail. True kindness and selfless love are still strong forces in this world.

5. “When you embark on a tough journey, surround your-self with supportive people.” So many times while hiking, I felt hurt and weak and lonely. I

almost convinced myself that I couldn’t do it. Having the sup-port of my friends and family at home and the daily encour-agement of other hikers who were working just as hard as I was toward the same goal made it possible for me to find the strength and confidence to continue each day. It helps to have people around who believe in you and remind you to believe in yourself.

On Monday, Lake Washington School District (LWSD) Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce presented her recommendation on the temporary boundary change between Rosa Parks and Lau-ra Ingalls Wilder elementary schools to the district’s board of directors.

The boundary will be in effect for the 2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16 school years and addresses overcrowding issues at Rosa Parks, which has an enrollment of 795 and is projected to reach 1,024 by 2015-16 if no change is made.

Pierce met with members of the Rosa Parks commu-nity who were concerned about with the size of the school in September 2012 and formed a temporary boundary committee to come up with a solution. The committee presented three

possible scenarios to mem-bers of the community, who then provided comments and feedback.

After this whole process, Pierce recommended Sce-nario C to the board.

This option would move all of Redmond Ridge East to Wilder except for the Deve-ron neighborhood, affecting 201 current students and 112 projected students.

Julianne Bogaty, a parent whose daughter attends Rosa Parks, said one of the top priorities community members have expressed in their feedback is to keep neighborhoods together. The exclusion of Deveron from the move to Wilder in Sce-nario C does the opposite.

“It’s not keeping Redmond Ridge East together,” she said.

Kathryn Reith, com-munications director for LWSD, said they did not include Deveron in Scenario C because that would put Wilder at full capacity with no wiggle room, especially as more housing is being developed in the area, which

would bring in an unknown amount of students.

She added that includ-ing additional elementary schools in the area would not be a viable solution as there would be issues of figuring out which neighborhoods would go to which schools — further breaking up the community — as well how students would get there. In addition, LWSD projections have all Redmond elementa-ry schools at or over capacity in the next three years.

In response, Bogaty said, “It’s frustrating that Wilder and other area (elementary schools) are safeguarded from reaching even their full capacity, when Rosa Parks has gone way over capac-ity for years with no such protection.”

She said parents also have safety concerns with the over enrollment.

Although Rosa Parks is a walking school, many families will drive to school when the weather is particu-larly rainy. As a result, the surrounding area, as well as

the school parking lot, can be particularly chaotic and dangerous at the beginning of the day.

“It just takes one misstep (from a child),” she said about the potential for ac-cidents.

Following Pierce’s presentation on Monday, board members asked the boundary committee to take another look at the numbers and see if there is a creative way to include all of Red-mond Ridge East at Wilder.

Bogaty said she and other community members appre-ciate this effort to utilize all available seats at Wilder.

The LWSD board will vote on the specific proposal on Jan. 28 and the community is encouraged to comment and provide input between now and then. Reith said the best way to do this is to email [email protected]. People can also send a letter to PO Box 97039, Redmond, WA., 98073 or call the district office at (425) 936-1200 to leave a message for any of the board members.

with the task of hiring a new fire chief, the mayor said he understands the other man’s reason for leaving.

One of Marchione’s pre-vious jobs before becom-ing Redmond mayor was working as the assistant to the city manager in Federal Way, which he left to be a

stay-at-home dad and take care of his son.

“You can pause your career but you can’t pause your family life,” he said.

The news of Donnelly’s retire-ment was announced to city employees on Jan. 2.

Once Donnelly leaves, Redmond Police Chief Ron Gibson will tempo-rarily oversee the fire department. Jeri Rowe-Curtis, chief policy adviser and communica-tions and market-

ing administrator for the city, said Gibson has served as acting fire chief before and is “ready to do so again to assist the city during this transition.”

Under Gibson’s leader-ship, the fire department will go through its strategic planning process for the year, which Marchione said will address the services the fire department provides, how these services are deliv-ered and whether standards are being met and more. Changes may come as a result of this process or the department may decide the structure they have in place already works well, but the mayor said they won’t begin looking for a new fire chief until this planning process

is complete. He said this will make it easier to write a job description for the fire chief, adding that they will ask the community for help with this as they have done previously. Marchione said this will probably take about a year.

Before leaving, Newbold, who had been with RFD for 19 years, was one of two deputy fire chiefs reporting to the fire chief. He oversaw the medics in the fire department while Deputy Fire Chief Russell Albertson oversees the department’s operations.

Marchione said previ-ously, the medics were under one chain of command while firefight-ers were under another chain of command. Now that Newbold has left, the medics will merge with the firefighters and operate as a team. Marchione said this means everyone will now be under the same leadership structure, reporting to a battalion chief, who reports to the deputy fire chief.

This plan to synch the medics with the firefighters has been two years in the making and while residents won’t see any changes in service, Marchione said this is a more cost-effective way to deliver services as there will be more people on the front line and less in supervision.

With this shift, Mar-chione said it has not been determined whether New-bold’s position will be filled, left vacant or eliminated completely. He said this will be up to Gibson as he and the fire department go through the strategic plan-ning process.

“Everybody seems to really connect with it and find an emotional intensity that empowers them. Theater should be there to support people to dream and believe in the impossible,” artistic director Mark Pawsey said of “Amaluna,” which opened in Vancouver, B.C., at the end of November. The tour is slated to run for five years under the big top before moving onto the arena circuit.

“I know it’s not the same as doing brain surgery or helping people to sur-vive, but it’s a tool that enables people to get something good in life,” Pawsey, 47, added.

The Cirque, which was founded in Baie-Saint-Paul, Quebec, Canada, in 1984, welcomed Pawsey on board 14 years ago. Prior to that, he “had prob-ably the best job in London” as stage manager for “Phantom of the Opera” for four and a half years.

Back in his “Phantom” days one of the actresses asked Pawsey to attend the Cirque’s “Saltimbanco” with her at the Royal Albert Hall in London. He didn’t know anything about the Cirque — and he didn’t want to go.

However, the afternoon’s enter-tainment ended up being a life-chang-ing experience for Pawsey, who said that he couldn’t speak afterward.

“I was transport-ed to a place that I had never been be-fore and I decided I was going to work for this company,” he added.

Following the show, Pawsey deliv-ered a hand-written letter to an em-ployee at the stage door and received a message on his phone machine by the time he returned home. Cirque officials met with Pawsey the following day, but it took two years before the right job came along and they eventually joined forces. During his Cirque tenure, Pawsey has worked in the capacity of artistic director, tour man-ager, assistant tour manager and general

stage manager for “Amaluna,” “Alegria,” “Quidam,” “Zumanity” and “ZED.”

While Pawsey said that his first Cirque show was a surprise to him, people who attend the performances nowadays usually know what they’re in for since they’ve seen clips on television or the Internet.

“It’s difficult trying to give them something different while staying true to the Cirque style and theme, so there’s different challenges now,” said Pawsey, noting that Redmond will be the fifth city on the “Amaluna” tour. “It’s grown and evolved and changed. People find their identity. They develop relation-ships within the show, so the show gets layered and layered and more and more rich and that’s only beneficial to every-body. We work on constantly changing the acrobatics and making them more exciting and better.”

Pawsey has always been interested in live theater. He studied stage manage-ment in London at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art and earned the presti-gious Liverpool Playhouse Award. He worked in London’s West End on pro-ductions that featured Hugh Jackman, Julie Andrews, Bob Hope and others.

“I found that (the theater) was a place where I could be transported and disappear and feel emotion. It was the first place I really found somewhere that made me laugh and cry,” he said. “I found it glamorous. I found that there was this appeal that wanted to suck me in.”

That could describe “Amaluna,” as well.

Pawsey’s infatuation with theater is stronger than ever on “Amaluna,” which features performers ages 14 to 52 and a strong story line that each audience member can interpret on their own since there’s no dialogue, he said.

Vinie Canovas, a 30-year-old from Montpellier in southern France, is one of the Valkyries in “Amaluna” and said that audiences have been entranced by the performers, whether they’re slither-ing about on stage or flying high above the crowd like she does.

“It’s nice performing in the tent, you can see the audience, compared to before in the arena,” she said. “It’s really interesting to see their reaction.”

Physical activitydoes your body good

Sports are so much more than just good fun. Getting involved with sports leads to physical fitness and robust health. For children, its benefits include healthy weight maintenance and improved blood circulation and cardiovascular health. Best of all, participation in sports has also been shown to have a beneficial effect on academic success.

Scientific studies have demonstrated that participating in sports activities has a positive impact on school drop out rates. This can be explai ned in terms of an increased sense of confidence

and be longing. Phy sical ac tivity also im proves one’s ability to concentrate. When students are more concentrated in the classroom, the learning process is facilitated.

Children who participate in a sport on a regular basis also have im proved lifestyles, including better sleep hab-its and diet. These students tend to opt for healthier foods, avoid smok-ing, and get better rest at night. In general, their moods also seem less volatile, which makes them much more pleasant to live with!

The social aspect of team sports should not be forgotten either. On a team, children learn to communicate better and integrate themselves into a group environment. For those who could benefit from learning better social skills, playing a sport can help them build friendships and learn to deal with disappointment.

Even though participating in sports ac tivities can in crease the risk of inju-ry for children, the benefits they gain greatly surpass the risks. However, it is important that children enjoy their chosen sport, so giving them the oppor-tunity to try a few different activities is definitely the right way to go.

1,000 reasons to do a sport

decline in mail service prompted USPS to find a smaller location. Swanson said this drop in service is a trend USPS is seeing nationwide as more people move to electronic means to take care of tasks previ-ously done by mail such as communicating and paying bills.

USPS is also required to pay the federal govern-ment an annual fee of $5.5 billion to “pre-fund” future retiree benefits through the year 2081 as a result of the 2006 Postal Account-

ability Enhancement Act. With the decreasing mail volume — USPS went from 214 billion pieces in 2006 to 167 billion pieces in 2011, according to earlier reports — and as a result, a decreasing revenue, mak-ing these annual payments is not easy. USPS defaulted on its payment on Sept. 30, 2011 and was given until Aug. 1, 2012 to make the late payment. USPS was unable to make the payment, nor was it able to make the annual payment for 2012, which was due Sept. 30, 2012.

Swanson said USPS is

selling off properties na-tionwide to accommodate this and closing the down-town Redmond post office was a financial decision.

The Southeast Redmond post office was on a na-tional list of potential sites to be closed this year but in earlier reports, Swanson said it was saved because it is also a delivery distribu-tion center where Eastside-bound mail coming in from Seattle gets sorted before it is distributed throughout northeast King County. Another reason the site was taken off the list is because it is now the only post of-

fice in Redmond.While Swanson said

things have been going well with just one post office in town and there is no need for a post office in the downtown, City of Redmond Mayor John Marchione said he is disap-pointed about the post office moving out of the downtown core.

Marchione called this move poor customer service and why USPS does not receive much support from the general public, adding that government shouldn’t mistreat its cus-tomers for support.

The mayor said he hopes USPS will come to its senses and bring its retail operations back to down-town Redmond.

Before the downtown post office closed at the end of July 2012, USPS had been looking at a new downtown location at 8215 160th Ave. N.E. However, earlier reports state that of-ficials determined it didn’t make good business sense, in light of USPS’s finan-cial issues, to lease a new location when there was an existing post office within two miles.

Once the idea for a new

standalone post office was scrapped, USPS spent some time looking into open-ing a contract postal unit (CPU), which is a post office within a commercial business. CPUs offers all the services of a standalone post office except for post office box rentals.

Swanson said throughout this search, they did not find anyone interested so things have been put on hold.

“It’s not active right now,” he said about the search for a possible CPU in down-town Redmond.

Interlake coach headed down 520 after three years leading SaintsStaff RepORt

There’s a new Mustang in town.

Former Interlake High School head football coach Jason Rimkus will take over the Redmond High School (RHS) spot next season, according to Mustang athletic director John Appelgate.

Jeff Chandler resigned as the head football coach at Redmond in

December.Chandler — who had

a 7-21 record in three years coaching the Mus-tangs — left the position to pursue a career in school administration.

Rimkus comes to Red-mond after serving with Interlake for the past three seasons.

“We are excited to be bringing in a coach with head coaching experi-ence within the Kingco Conference (2A/3A),” Appelgate said. “Coach Rimkus has done an out-standing job at Interlake and we look forward to his knowledge, en-ergy and enthusiasm in continuing the upward

path of the RHS football program (4A Kingco).”

Rimkus, who com-piled a 12-23 record with Interlake, was an all-4A Kingco defensive back at Bothell High and played at Pacific Lutheran University (PLU). He was part of the coach-ing staffs at Bothell, PLU and Western Washington University.

Appelgate said he hopes the same traits that helped Rimkus at Interlake can benefit a Redmond program that last posted a winning season in 2007.

“We feel like we’re on the right track,” he said. “We have a bubble of

talent coming back and we’re on track to be com-petitive next year.”

Appelgate said Chan-dler more than ful-filled his main goal of increasing the turnout for football during his time there, and while a Kingco title may be an unrealistic expecta-tion for a program that won only three games in 2012, the hope around the athletic department is that Rimkus can infuse the program with the same energy.

According to Interlake athletic director Art Kuehn, that shouldn’t be a problem.

“He was really passion-ate about everything,” Kuehn said of Rimkus. “He’s done a great job.”
