Sahalee residents are reflect-ing after an Aug. 24 fire leveleda home and sent one of thegated community’s members tothe hospital with second-degreeburns.

And on Sept. 13, they metwith Eastside Fire & Rescueleaders at the country club’sclubhouse to retrace the chain ofevents that some thought wastoo slow and others simplywanted to understand better.

Fire Chief Lee Soptich andbattalion chief Glenn Huffmanspoke with concerned residents

about the house fire on the 2000block of 208th Place Northeast,which drew 21 firefighters andmore than a half-dozen aid vehi-cles from Redmond to Issaquah.

Dale Simpson, 87, is stillrecovering at HarborviewMedical Center, according to theSahalee MaintenanceAssociation. He suffered second-degree burns to his head, andsmoke inhalation. He was listedinitially in serious condition, butwas later was said to be improv-ing, according to a Harborviewspokeswoman.

Questions during the townhall style meeting focused on

the overall aid response to treat-ing Mr. Simpson, not necessarilyhow fast the fire trucks gotthere.

It came down, the agencyleaders said, to a communica-tions error between emergencydispatchers at the Bellevue-based NORCOM site and EFRfirefighters on the scene, accord-ing to radio and 911-call recordsand personal accounts from theincident.

“We had some communica-tion failures in this event,”Soptich said as he began the dis-

Sammamish may get to knowsome new representatives in bothOlympia and Washington D.C.next year.

The state redistricting commit-tee released proposals of whereto draw boundaries for congres-sional and legislative districtsSept. 13. Each of the four mapsproposes changes to which dis-tricts cover the city.

The commission is made oftwo Democrats and twoRepublicans.

Both parties in the House andSenate appointed a representa-tive. Each of the four menreleased his own draft of wherehe would draw the lines —including squeezing in a new10th Congressional District.

Redistricting happens every 10years, after the census has beencompleted, to reflect changes inpopulation trends.

Three of the four proposalsseek to create a congressional dis-trict made up primarily of minor-ity voters. Each of the proposalsseeks to benefit one politicalparty over the other, and eachforces some incumbents into adifferent district than they nowrepresent.

For Sammamish, plans varygreatly. Currently, Sammamish is

in the 8th Congressional District.The bulk of the city is in the 5thLegislative District, with a chunkof the northern part of the city inthe 45th Legislative District.

Republican appointee SladeGorton would leave Sammamishin the 8th Congressional Districtwhich would include most ofKing County east of LakeSammamish, and the northeasthalf of Pierce County.

Gorton’s legislative plan forSammamish would have thesouthern part of the city in the41st Legislative District alongwith Mercer Island, Newcastle,southern Bellevue and otherparts of Bellevue along LakeWashington and parts of Issaquaharound Lake Sammamish.

The northern half would be inthe 5th which would swooparound to cover southernIssaquah, Maple Valley, andstretch eastward to Snoqualmie,North Bend, and on to the countyline.

Tim Ceis, a Democratic

appointee, would shiftSammamish into the 1stCongressional District along withmuch of suburban King Countyand parts of Snohomish Countysouth of Everett.

He would also move most ofthe city into the 45th LegislativeDistrict, along with Redmond andKirkland, except for a sliver alongthe southern edge, which wouldgo to the 41st along withIssaquah, Newcastle and MercerIsland.

Dean Foster, the otherDemocrat, would also moveSammamish into the 1stCongressional District, whichwould also include Issaquah,Redmond and areas north ofLake Washington and north ofSeattle all the way to PugetSound.

It would continue north toinclude Mill Creek, but wouldstay south of Everett. He wouldleave the Legislative boundariesrelatively unchanged, althoughthe 45th District might move alittle further south and encom-pass a slightly larger part of thecity.

Tim Huff, the otherRepublican appointee, also putsSammamish into the 1stCongressional District. His takeon the 1st includes Snoqualmieand North Bend, and then goes

north to the Canadian border,covering most of Snohomish,Skagit and Whatcom counties.His plan carves Sammamish intothree different legislative districts.

The southern part of the citywould be in the 41st District, withparts of Issaquah, Newcastle,Mercer Island and southernBellevue. The central part is inthe 5th with the rest of IssaquahSnoqualmie, North Bend, MapleValley and the northern part is inthe 45th, which swings aroundskipping Redmond but goes toKirkland, Woodinville andDuvall, and eastward, encom-passing rural areas on both sidesof the King/Snohomish Countyline.

The final map will likelychange greatly from these drafts,which are little more than a start-ing point for negotiations. Nowthat the proposals are on thetable, there will be a 30-day pub-lic comment period.

The commission, consisting ofthe four men plus a non-votingchairwoman, Lura Powell, willmeet to hash out a final plan.

Three of the four commission-ers must agree on a map by theend of the year for the proposalto take effect; if they cannot, thestate Supreme Court will takeover.

The new districts will go intoeffect when voters go to the pollsin November 2012.

notes were never vocally relayedto firefighters at the scene, thechiefs said. That’s why no full-service ambulance (Medic One)with paramedics was dispatcheduntil nearly 15 minutes into thecall, Huffman and Soptich said.

“In that case, we failed our

The dispatchers in this casework for NORCOM, the NorthEast King County Regional PublicSafety Communication Agency,which is independent from EFR.

cussion Sept. 13 at the SahaleeCountry Club clubhouse. “We’renot proud of that.”

The call went out to firefight-ers at 6:16 p.m. Aug. 24.

Within about nine minutes,the first responders from Station82 had arrived, according to thecall transcripts from NORCOM,the dispatch agency in charge ofrelaying 911 calls and radio com-munication to firefighters. Threeengines with nine firefightershad arrived within 12 minutesand more were on the way.

“We performed within ourstandard,” said Soptich. “We hatespeed bumps, we hate gates, wehate trees … we hate anythingthat gets in our way.”

While all firefighters aretrained emergency medical tech-nicians and first-responding unitscan help treat basic injuries andhealth needs, Huffman andSoptich highlighted that firefight-ers had not been told for certainthere was anyone in the house orinjured in the blaze.

“If I’m having a heart attack,how many Aspirin will I need totake before I get an aid car?”asked a Sahalee resident whowished not to tell her name.

That’s where the breakdownin communication happened,they said. And that’s whatseemed to frustrate residents atthe community meeting.

At the scene Aug. 24, dozensof neighbors gathered in thestreet to call 911, help or watchevents unfold, according to resi-dents’ accounts at the Sept. 13meeting. In the panic, a few saidthey thought Mr. Simpson couldbe inside. But neighbor GregBarton had already rescued the87-year-old Simpson from theblazing house. Firefightersarrived shortly after — withinwhat they consider a reasonableresponse time — and began workto extinguish the fire. They hadnot been told of any possible vic-tim and focused on fighting thefire, Soptich and Huffman said.

“We had every reason tobelieve we didn’t have anybodyin the building,” said Soptich.“Where we see the flaw is infowas not communicated to thecrews. That could’ve been thegame-changer for us.”

The transcript from the eventshows the dispatcher jottingdown at 6:18 p.m. that a Sahaleeresident reporting the fire wasunsure whether there was anyburn victim or anyone inside thehouse. Again the dispatchernoted a similar claim in the nextcouple of minutes. But those

Meanwhile, at the City Council

Eastside Fire & Rescue Deputy Chief WesCollins was at the Sammamish City Councilmeeting Sept. 13 as part of an otherwise sched-uled appearance, but council members took achance to question him about the response tothe Sahalee fire.

Collins admitted that there had been a mis-take.

“There was a breakdown in communication,”he said.

According to Collins, the first units were onthe scene with seven or eight minutes after thecall came in. But it wasn’t until the battalionchief arrived, seven minutes after that, that acall went out to request a medic unit.

The closest unit, Medic 19 from Redmond,was on the scene of another incident. So the callwent to the next closet, Medic 14, based in theIssaquah Highlands. Collins said that unit took15 minutes and 42 seconds to reach the scenefrom the time the call went out for it.

Collins said that there are only a handful of

medic units in the county, and they are typicallyonly summoned when firefighters know there isa victim on the scene.

As is standard in house fire calls, an aid unitwas dispatched to the fire. However, aid units arestaffed by volunteers, and so take longer to reachthe scene of an incident than career firefighters.

Collins said that both EFR and the dispatchservice are conducting investigations into thelapse in communication.

“For us, that failure of communication meantwe didn’t provide as good a service,” Collins said.“It’s unacceptable to us.”

Councilman Mark Cross said he was glad theagencies involved are reviewing the incident,but noted that beyond that, deciding who goes towhich types of fires is more of a policy question.

City Manager Ben Yazici noted that for 10years, EFR has done a good job responding toincidents in Sammamish. He cautioned againstjumping to conclusions or recommendingincreasing staffing levels until the investigationsare complete.

OPINIONReview editorialRedistricting mattersto Sammamish

Washington State is in the midst of its once-a-decade chance to re-evaluate the lines on a map thatcreate our Congressional and Legislative districts.Unfortunately, redistricting has become a politicallypartisan activity.

Please, powers-that-be, draw the lines based onlogical groups of people, not on how best to achievea legislative majority.

Logic does not divide smaller size cities. Logicdoes not have a district that encompasses large por-tions of both sides of the Cascades. Logic does notbase district boundaries on today’s representationwithout acknowledging that elected officials andpolitical leanings will likely change dramaticallyover the next decade.

Washington uses a bi-partisan commission to draftboundaries. But a bi-partisan commission is a longway from a nonpartisan commission. Political par-ties appointed the commission members. When thecommissioners think in terms or red and blue, thegreens, and other third parties, are shut out.

The four suggested maps show a wide array ofideas. With public input, the anointed team mustcome up with a final solution, or let the SupremeCourt justices decide. It’s a tough assignment.

Of the four proposals, Tim Huff’s is by far theworst for Sammamish. He would place Sammamishin the same congressional district with people livingin rural areas along the Canadian border. Good peo-ple, we’re sure, but people with radically differentconcerns than folks in Sammamish. Huff would alsosplit Sammamish between three legislative districts,diluting the city’s oomph in Olympia. Yes, therewould be three sets of legislators answerable toSammamish, but none would have much stake inthe city.

The other three have pluses and minuses.Whichever Congressional district Sammamish

falls into, it should all be in a single district, pairedwith other nearby communities.

In legislative terms, ideally, Sammamish would beentirely in one district.

If it must be split in two (more is unacceptable),the most logical line would be along the school dis-trict boundary. Yes, this may contribute to the north-south divide, but it would also leave a large popula-tion of Sammamish voters in each district — enoughthat legislators would take the city’s concerns seriously.

Support for Valderrama

I have known Ramiro Valderramafor more than six years. I workedwith Valderrama on the East LakeSammamish Parkway Coalition ashe brought together more than 20homeowner associations, environ-mental groups and beach clubs towork together in search of effectivetransportation solutions for the city.

He strongly advocated fiscalresponsibility to the city and led thevolunteer work as citizens collabo-rated to design and present an alter-native design for the East LakeSammamish Parkway project thatcould address the safety concerns onthe parkway for a tenth of the origi-nal city plan.

Valderrama has since continuallydemonstrated he possesses the qual-ities for a great councilmember.Following the East Lake SammamishParkway Coalition, he mobilized andorganized citizens through Citizensfor Sammamish to capitalize on thecitizen’s diversity and experiences inworking with the city.

Valderrama listened to the citi-zen’s concerns and helped developeffective solutions to the city’s chal-lenges by promoting positive dialogwith the City Council and staff.

Valderrama’s tireless involvementfor Sammamish made him thespokesperson at many council meet-ings.

Valderrama has the knowledge,he knows the city and he hasSammamish’s future in mind — Iendorse Ramiro Valderrama forCouncilmember and ask you to votefor him. We need someone who canrepresent all of the citizens ofSammamish’s interests, help findsolutions and be financially respon-sible.

Barricade removal good

I had the opportunity to drive theroute where the Southeast 32ndStreet barricade was removed andwould like to commend LauraPhilpot and city Department ofPublic Works for the fine job theydid on this project.

The traffic calming improve-

ments are adequate to slow poten-tial speeding traffic without inter-rupting travel along the route. Thedesign improvements to stripingalong the edges of the traffic lanesprovide a visual path for safe trav-el for both automobile and pedes-trian users. The curb installationsare well located and enhancepedestrian safety.

I would like to thank LauraPhilpot for her outstanding perfor-mance handling this hot buttonissue. I also wish to commend theCity Council members for thethoughtful input and continuedefforts as we move forward on thebarricade issue.

Greg ReynoldsSammamish

Or maybe not so good

As I sat in my car just east ofwhere the old barricade stood onSoutheast 32nd Street, I watched acar coming towards me headedeast from what used to be theother side of the barricade. Icounted 12 seconds from the timethe car went out of my view(where the ‘dip’ is) to the time itcame back into my view at the topof the “dip.”

If a child, or a parent with astroller were crossing 32nd on footin the vicinity of where I wasparked, they would assume therewas no car coming, until it hit thetop of the hill, and them. A carturning left onto 223rd Avenuecannot see cars coming at themheaded east on 32nd either.

The city refuses to acknowledgethere is a sight distance problem,and removed the barricade statingthere is no sight distance problem.The city is placing your life injeopardy if you use Southeast 32ndStreet in that area.

Don’t buy Mystic lake

We need more income produc-ing property, not more park prop-erty that requires our tax dollarsfor maintenance.

We certainly don’t need to be

buying a parcel that is currently out-side the city limits. If the propertybecomes annexed to the city ofSammamish, 117 new homes wouldadd significant property tax revenueto the coffers.

Vaccines are necessary

As a parent and staunch advocateof immunizations, I’m horrified atthe state of Washington’s poorimmunization record. It is a shamethat some parents think that optingtheir children out of vaccines is anacceptable way to keep their chil-dren free of communicable diseasesthat have been all but eradicated inour country via those parents thatdo immunize.

I believe many parents opt outbecause they are misinformed to thepotential risks associated with vac-cines, namely autism. I beg parentsnot to abstain from immunizations,you are putting the general popula-tion at risk for diseases like polioand measles to resurface. Older, pre-viously immunized individuals mayhave their immunity wane over theyears and can then actually contractthese diseases – so please don’t putmy health at risk and ask that myimmunized child protect yours fromthese diseases.

hood from Sahalee Way and themain gate, 16 minutes into theresponse and was the first one tonotice Barton with Simpson lyingin a yard across the street andthree houses down from thehome on fire.

He and three other firefightersattended to him while they wait-ed for paramedics to arrive,Huffman said.

“Greg is a hero in my eyes,” hesaid. “He is a real hero in thiscommunity.”

Paramedics arrived by about6:45 p.m. and treated Simpson.He arrived at Harborview at 8:37p.m., Soptich said.

During the discussion, resi-dents also raised concerns aboutresponse time being hindered bythe gates and many speed bumpsthroughout Sahalee. Soptich andHuffman said those factors mayhave added a few seconds to theresponse time.

Huffman stressed that thefocus of the fire units’ responsewas to fight the fire and protectnearby property and trees.Highlighting that people’s safetyis always the first priority, headded it is standard procedure to

send paramedics if dispatch hasconfirmed reports of a victim onscene or a person trapped in abuilding. Paramedics were notcalled earlier due to the uncon-firmed reports and lack of com-

munication from dispatch. Thefirst-responding stations don’thave the full-service aid car thatwas needed in this case, just thestandard ambulance with basictreatment capabilities, he said.

“Had we showed up to thehouse with one truck and twoambulances, we would be havingthis community meeting on whythe neighborhood burned down,”Huffman said.

Aid car versus medic unitThe two main types of medical units to

respond in Sammamish, besides firefighters, areaid cars and medic units.

All firefighters are certified as EmergencyMedical Technicians (EMTs) and almost all fire-fighting vehicles have basic medical supplies.

Aid cars are staffed by two EMTs and carrymedical equipment. In Sammamish, they arestaffed mostly by volunteers. Since these volun-teers often have to come from home or work to

the fire station before responding to an incident,they can sometimes take longer to arrive on the scene.

Medic units are staffed by two professionalparamedics, who have training beyond that ofEMTs. They also carry more advanced life sup-port equipment. Medic units are funded throughthe Medic 1 tax levy, and there are only a hand-ful in the county. Because of their relative scarci-ty, they are typically only dispatched if firefight-ers know that there is an injured person on thescene.

Who knew church bake saleswere so lucrative?

Sammamish youth MarianaCuevas and her family sure didn’tuntil they organized one Aug. 28at Mary, Queen of Peace CatholicChurch to raise money for theEast-African famine crisis. Theyraised more than $1,400 in anafternoon, enough money to feedroughly 5,000 people.

“People were donating a lot,”said Cuevas, an eighth-grader atInglewood Junior High School.

But Mariana hasn’t stopped atbaking cakes and cookies. Withhelp from Sammamish-basedRandomKid, Cuevas started herown campaign to save as manylives as possible by educating fel-low youth across the country onthe humanitarian crisis and rais-ing funds for the UN World FoodProgram. It’s called “HappyTummies.”

“We’re trying to get this biggerand bigger,” she said. “I want toinspire kids all over the world,the U.S. and the state to help outin this because I think we can alldo it.”

Cuevas said she realized theurgent need to help those suffer-ing in East Africa one night whenher family was discussing waysthey could serve others together.Her mother had read an articleon the famine and that led themto talk about whysome peoplehave a lot andsome don’t havemuch. It donnedon the 13-year-old that she coulddo at least some-thing.

“We don’t real-ize what wehave,” Mariana said. “I knew itwas going be hard, but I neededto try. “I’m only 13, but I can tryto save lives on the other side ofthe world.”

Since the successful bake sale,Mariana’s cause has blossomed.She initially networked with her

friends and school to raise aware-ness and plan events.

But one day, her fatherTweeted the bake-sale accom-plishment to the World FoodProgram and, impressed with theefforts, the organization’s execu-tive director, Josette Sheeran,commended Mariana to thou-sands of followers world-wide,Mariana said.

Anne Ginther, founder anddirector of RandomKid, and ayouth-group leader at Mary,

Queen ofPeace,helpedMariana gether ideas offthe ground.She encour-aged herearly on tothink big andwork hard.

“If everybody did what spokedirectly to their heart, the worldwould be better off. You need todo something,” Ginther saidabout how she encouragedMariana. “They really want tomake a dent in this as quick aspossible.”

Mariana is in the beginningstages of developing goals anddesigning products, but she andGinther seem quite energeticabout the possibilities.

“She has a rare focus on thisissue and really is determined tomake a difference. She’s veryambitious to do this,” Ginthersaid. “We can tell that she’s very,very motivated. We support kidswherever they’re at.”

Mariana, who likes to draw,plans to design logos for T-shirts,lunch boxes and other merchan-dise, which she will sell from herRandomKid website. All proceedswill go to the World FoodProgram to help the famine aidefforts.

“This has taught me that asyoung as you can be, if you havean idea and you want to help, ifyou get your team of volunteersand family into this, then youcan do anything you want to withit.”

The production has been a six-month labor of love for Anandhand Krishnan. With the perfor-mance date rapidly approaching,the two have been rehearsingtheir parts daily.

“The dance is very demandingphysically,” Krishnan said. “If wedon’t practice every day we won’thave the stamina to perform it.”

With all the hard work that’sgone into the production,Anandh and Krishnan are hope-ful that Sept. 25 will be the firstof many showings.

“This is just the debut perfor-mance,” Anandh said. “We’re hop-ing we’ll have more opportunitiesto perform it because we’ve putso much money and effort intoit.”

As William Lam climbed upthe ladder, he and his Skylineclassmates watched for spidersdangling from and nestled in thewooden duck box attached to thetree.

Once over the fear of whatmight be crawling on him, hesearched and felt around the boxto open it up. He was looking forthe remains of a nest inside,where either a wood duck or amerganser would have laid eggsor hatchlings would have fledgedlast spring.

Lam and his fellow IB biologyand IB environmental systemsstudents spent their after-school

hours Sept. 15 doing mainte-nance for an ongoing researchproject on 13 duck boxes fastenedto trees around the Hazel WolfWetlands in Sammamish. Groupmembers extracted now-aban-doned nests to later observe anddissect at a Skyline biology clubmeeting, said research projectorganizers. They also added newmaterials for the next duck nest-ing season and stapled morecamouflaging material to the out-side of a box, if necessary.

“In biology club, we’ll gothrough ‘em CSI-style,” said TedBurris, a project leader withDucks Unlimited, as he explained

Skyline studentsstudy duck boxes

Sammamish resident Ted Burris, left, of Ducks Unlimited, explains to Skyline students what they

will be doing with the duck boxes Sept. 15 at Hazel Wolf Wetlands.

Photo by Christopher HuberConstruction on the Eastlake High School classroom and gymadditions begins. The Lake Washington School Board approvedan approximately $10.64 million budget for the construction of a14-classroom addition and an auxiliary gym addition to theschool, the digging for which began over the summer. This isone of three projects around the district funded by the 2011voter-approved capital levy.

Eastlake football fans maysee a new flashy scoreboard onthe field by the end of the sea-son, according to WolvesFootball Association presidentDavid Grotjahn.

That depends heavily onwhether or not LakeWashington School District offi-cials make decisions in the nextweek.

The football boosters clubhas been working withEvergreen Ford and the districtsince April to get funding andapproval to install a new score-board that would include an 8.5-foot-by-11-foot LED videoscreen. It would be the only ofits kind on the plateau. TheBothell football programinstalled a similar board at PopKeeney Stadium in 2009.

The Ford dealership offeredto donate the majority of thecost for the approximately$130,000 scoreboard on the con-dition that the board display itsname and logo graphics whenturned on at a game, accordingto Grotjahn and district documents.

The Lake Washington SchoolDistrict maintains a policy thatany use of district facilities befree of commercial or personaluse, unless approved by theboard.

And that is exactly what hap-pened at the board’s Sept. 12meeting, when it approved theuse of the scoreboard, andallowed the exception to bemade for the yet-to-be-pur-chased scoreboard.

Before committing to fundthe scoreboard, Grotjahn said,Evergreen Ford wanted writtenapproval from the district, con-

Eastlake to get new scoreboardfirming the exception to allow itto advertise on the board for 10years.

“Without this agreement,Evergreen would not participate,which would financially put thisout of reach for the booster club,”said Grotjahn.

To comply with policiesagainst advertising during schoolhours, the scoreboard would onlybe turned on after school, accord-ing to the approval request.

Grotjahn said the booster clubhad hoped to have the scoreboardinstalled by Eastlake’s openinghome football game Sept. 9, buttrouble getting the advertisingexception on the board agendaover the summer delayed theprocess.

Among the hang-ups are dis-agreements about which entityshould handle the money and thecontractor bid process for instal-lation. The booster club has par-ents in the building industry,who Grotjahn said are willing tohelp with the installation process.But thus far, the district has

New Commerce in SammamishWhen the Economy Improves?By Tom VanceReactions toc o m m e r c i a ldevelopmentin Sammamishrange from

total abhorrence to hoping for a Wal-Mart.

Town Center, the proposedresidential, commercial and civiccenter, will not have “big box stores.” Citizens committees, the PlanningCommission, and the Councilrejected them for environmental andaesthetic reasons.

As one local citizen said, “If wepave over Sammamish, we might aswell move to L.A. where the weather is better.”

In the 1980s and 90s, the bigretailers could have come here, witha growing population, and KingCounty in control.

They didn’t come. Costco, HomeDepot and others chose to locate near major highways. Town Center isabout 5.5 miles from 520 or I-90.That won’t change, regardless of ourplans.

Others have called for commercial development as a way to futurefinancial stability. As we’ve seenrecently, that isn’t necessarily so.Sales tax revenue, even in a healthyeconomy, can be exceeded by the

cost of increased public services,including public safety. Our publicservices are manageable because weare primarily a residential community.

Town Center was never conceivedas competition for the big malls, withall the extra traffic. Instead, it wouldmitigate traffic by giving localresidents options on the plateau. Andit would make us more self-reliant.

Town Center would offer localcorporations the opportunity to buildsatellite offices so employees couldavoid the commute to Redmond orBellevue. Medical and other office-based businesses would offer neededservices. Some of our many home-based businesses, ready to expand,could find local office space.

Mid-size and small retail wouldoffer choices for goods and services.The 2200 condos, townhouses, andsingle-family homes, along with office development, would help provide amarket for restaurants and cafes. Andincreased residential demand woulddrive the development of Town Center as a whole.

Could we be flexible if anappropriate “anchor” store wanted tolocate in Town Center? I wouldconsider that, provided thoseenvironmental and aesthetic concernswere met.

the plan to students at the trail-head along Windsor DriveSoutheast.

The goal of the duck-box pro-ject is to better understand thenesting habits of area woodducks, said Joelle Nelson, SkylineIB environmental systems teach-er. Some of the factors the stu-dents are researching include:why many clutches don’t hatch,whether temperature plays a rolein nest success and garneringmore details about nest dumping.

“Mostly we’ve found that theydon’t hatch and there’s lots ofnest dumping by mergansers,”Nelson said. “We’re really tryingto find out about nest dumpingand trying to find a solution tothat.”

Nest dumping happens when,for example, a mother wood ducklays eggs, flies off, and laterreturns to a nest full of hers and,say, a merganser’s eggs. She thenabandons the nest and none ofthe eggs hatch. Nelson said thestudents will work to figure outhow to attract wood ducks to anddeter mergansers from the duckboxes. Factors that may helpinclude placing a nest (duck box)farther from a trail or closer tothe water, or positioning it in full-shade areas.

The Skyline students recov-ered numerous nests with un-hatched eggs, but that also hadhatched chicks that never madeit out of the nest.

“It gives me some chance towork outside the classroom,” saidSkyline senior Sophia Long. Shesaid this was her fourth timedoing the wetlands project andfirst time helping extract thenests. Since she would like tosomeday do field work as a scien-tist, this is a practical way tolearn basic, but real-life researchmethods.

“It’s accessible and I get tolearn a lot while doing it,” she said.

In the past year, project orga-

nizers placed four cameras aimedat different boxes around the wet-lands area, said Gretel vonBargen, Skyline’s IB Biologyteacher. It gives them a new viewon the environment surroundingthe nests — bears climbing up tothe nests, other birds hinderingsafe nesting, etc. The studentsvoluntarily sign up for the workproject four to five times perschool year, the teachers said.Once back at school, they willrecord data, observing things likethe type of eggs in the nest, pres-ence of down feathers and eggshards (evidence that eggshatched), if there are multiple

species of eggs (evidence of nestdumping), etc. Eventually, thescience students will combinetheir data with other data fromBurris at Ducks Unlimited to helpdetermine the success of eachduck box.

“Whenever they can see theycan make a difference and see anapplication for what they’relearning, it makes them want tohelp,” said von Bargen.

insisted on opening a weeks-long bid process to determinethe right company to hire forinstallation.

“We still have a lot of work todo,” said Eastlake athletic direc-tor, Brent Kawaguchi. He alsosaid the school is trying to getapproval to move the newscoreboard to a location insidethe track area, closer to playersand fans. “It will be great, butwe still have work to do on relo-

cation approval.”Some booster club leaders

have seniors who play forEastlake, and Grotjahn noted itwould be nice for the olderplayers to enjoy the state-of-the-art scoreboard, which wouldenable the school to produceflashy introduction videos topump up fans and the team. Ifthings go smoothly in the endof September, he said, there’s achance the new scoreboardcould up be by early November.

“This is something we want-ed them to take advantage of,”Grotjahn said. “It may not evenget done by the end of this year.”

We thank and honor those who have served the citizens of Sammamish on the

council and city committees over the years. Now it’s time for new leadership,

unencumbered by ownership of and association with the past. The

establishment and policies that worked then, can’t provide the efficiencies we

need now!

Representing you on City Council, I will:

• Help keep our city fiscally sound through effective, efficient leadership and

stewardship of our tax dollars.

• Develop parks, the Town Center, an affordable Community Center, the

infrastructure and services we need for the future, with Smart Growth.

• Partner with the business community to help minimize our tax exposure and

maximize our business and job opportunities.

• Provide more opportunities for our city government to listen to our citizens, to

understand our needs and concerns.

The game officials madeEastlake players and fans wellaware that they supportedprostate cancer research Sept. 13.The refs made good use of thespecial blue flags for the occasion— in place of the traditional yel-low ones — as the EastlakeWolves and RooseveltRoughriders combined for 21 sep-arate penalties in the contest atEastlake High School stadium.

While the delays due to penal-ties made for a cumbersomegame that limited either team’sability to find a groove, the actionitself was fleeting and came inspurts, mainly for the now 3-0Wolves.

Relying on its steady defenseand rock-solid running game,Eastlake overcame a 12-7 half-time deficit to beat Roosevelt 41-20.

Senior all-league linemenKepa Hughes and Gino Bresolinmade the difference for Eastlake.Down 12-7 to open the thirdquarter, they pressured Rooseveltquarterback along with thedefense. Hughes shucked hisblocker and charged in from theright, punching the ball out frombehind.

“I came off the block quick,”Hughes said. He remembered hisfocus, “I’m not letting this guy

go.”And, applying what he learned

in “turnover Tuesday” practicelast week, Bresolin said he seam-

lessly scooped up the bouncingball and took it in for a 54-yardtouchdown return. He hadtweaked his ankle in the first

half.“But when I picked up that

ball, my ankle was fine,” Bresolinsaid.

The score put Eastlake up 14-12 and it was all downhill fromthere.

Skyline’s Andi Scarcello andEastlake’s Kara Beauchamp gottheir 2011 100-yard breaststrokeracing off to a competitive startSept. 13 at Redmond Pool.

Both girls, who have swamtogether on club teams since ageeight, made their 50-yard turnsimultaneously and held the paceall the way through. But in thefinal meter, Scarcello pulled off aMichael Phelps-like stretch inplace of an extra stroke thathelped her inch past Beauchamp.

“I was not expecting to dowell,” said Scarcello, who took ayear off from club swimmingbefore this season. “I just wantedto have a good race with Kara.Usually she’s always the one tobeat me.”

The decision wasn’t a game-changer by any means, butScarcello’s win provided someextra excitement for her team-mates watching and may haveset the pace for the event amongKingCo swimmers this fall.

In the end, the Spartans out-swam the Wolves 131-55 in the

second meet of the new season. “It felt good. It was fun to race

Andi again,” Beauchamp saidafter the meet. “I could havestarted out a little faster.”

Skyline brings back all but onemember of last year’s state-champ — 2011 graduate NinaZook. With 86 swimmers and

divers on the roster, it also looksas deep as the 2010 team thatdominated the competition at alllevels. The Spartans look espe-cially capable in the relay events,said head coach Susan Simpkins.

“We’re as strong as ever,” shesaid. “Fortunately, we have areally good group of captains.”

Katie Kinnear, who competesinternationally, will team up withDelaney Boyer, Lindsey Lee andJessie Dart as Skyline’s captains.

Among the team’s top swim-mers will be Kinnear, the 2010state champ in the 50-free, 100-butterfly, the 200-medley relayand the 400-freestyle relay.

Seniors Dart and MeghanO’Keefe, juniors MariaVolodkevich, Scarcello, SarahElderkin and Shanley Miller andsophomores Stephanie Munozand Yui Umezawa were all statequalifiers and will do some dam-age in the pool for Skyline. Theteam’s 200-medley relay and 400-freestyle relays look to beSkyline’s fastest events.

Against Eastlake, Skyline tookfirst in 11 of 12 swimming events.It won the 200-medley relay (1minute, 57.42 seconds), the 200-freestyle relay (1:50.74), and the400-freestyle relay (3:55.29).Munoz won the 200 IM in 2:22.27and the 100-freestyle in 1:00.36.Courtney Lo took first in the 100IM with a time of 1:15.02 andKinnear won the 50-freestyleevent in 24.98, 1.19 seconds slow-er than her state-winning timelast year. Kinnear also won the100-backstroke with a time of59.94 seconds. TeammateO’Keefe won two events, as well.She swam the 100-butterfly in59.54 seconds and the 500-

The perils

of tailgatingPolice arrested three juvenile

females at the Skyline HighSchool Football game Sept. 2 forunderage drinking.

Two of the girls were foundurinating in the bushes whenthey were observed by police.

Both denied having had any-thing to drink, but one was slur-ring her words so much policecould not understand her.

Police separated the girls. Oneblew a .079 on a portable breatha-lyzer. The other was too drunk tobe able to blow into it.

While this was happening,police were notified of a third girlwho was reported to be too drunkto walk.

Police approached her andobserved her slurring her wordsand having a hard time stayingup in her chair.

One girl threw up all over theback of a police car. Police decid-ed to bring the girls in for book-ing. As an officer was bringingthem to the Issaquah Jail, theofficer had to pull over so a girlcould throw up.

At the jail, the girls were givenanother breathalyzer test. Thefirst girl again blew a 0.79. One ofthe others blew a .27 and thethird blew a .23 which later camedown to a .179. The legal limit forpeople 21 and over is .08.

The Issaquah jail said it wouldnot admit one of the girls due toher drunken state and she wastaken to Overlake.
