Teen clothing bank outfits those who care most about clothes

By Carol ladwigStaff Reporter

Lost and found is no longer the boneyard for for-gotten sweatshirts, dropped gloves, and last semester’s gym clothes. These days in the Upper Valley, a school building’s lost and found section is a treasure trove, but only half because it’s full of free stuff.

“It’s kids’ clothes,” explains Monica Rutherford, organizer of the Upper Valley’s teens-only clothing bank, the Teen Closet. “I know it’s teen clothes, because it belongs to the teens.”

And teens are the target market for the free bimonthly event focused on helping Valley children in grades 6 though 12, from financially struggling families, find the clothes they like to wear.

Teen Closet was created last year, just for this age group, Rutherford said, because when she worked for Encompass, she saw lots of organizations providing help for families with young children, and for seniors.

“But what about the kids who are in middle school and high school?” she wondered, and started asking around, she said. “There isn’t really a lot for them… and that’s the age when they really start to care about their clothes.”

She also focuses on teen clothing because she doesn’t really have enough space available to broaden the target.

Parents boost math,

science offerings at frosh campus

Exploratory class scrapped for expanded STEM lessons

By Carol ladwigStaff Reporter

“We have been listening.” Principal John Belcher’s

announcement Thursday was both to the school board and to the broader community, in response to criticism leveled against proposed curriculum offerings at the district’s future freshman campus.

At the board’s Thursday, Nov. 29, meeting, Belcher presented a revised slate of curriculum offerings, which scrapped the four-quarter exploratory classes in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) in favor of more tra-ditional lab-based sciences and classes being given the STEM treatment.

Until a few months ago, the event didn’t actually have a consistent home.

“This church (Mount Si Lutheran) just opened the doors and invited the Teen Closet here!” Rutherford said. She isn’t a member of the church, although a friend and volunteer helper at last Tuesday’s sorting and prep night, Suzy Schuba, is.

Schuba, Rutherford, and about a dozen others gath-ered at the church that night to sort, stack and hang the clothes that will be available for “shoppers” at the Teen Closet, 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 5. After the clothes were hung and the storage closet was stacked high with extra bins of clothing for the event—“Yeah, that’s Monica,” Schuba said—she and Rutherford stayed to sort through several shopping bags full of soaps and toiletries that Rutherford had received from an Issaquah business.

Donations tend to find Rutherford, she admitted, sometimes just appearing on her porch. She goes to each school’s lost and found a couple of times a year —each of them first tries to reunite kids and clothes for months beforehand, she says—and appreciates their generosity.

“All of the middle schools and the high school have been really generous about letting me dig through their lost and found,” she said. “The middle school custodi-ans especially have been awesome. I’ve had stuff that they’ve laundered for me!”

Her last scouring of the Chief Kanim lost and found yielded about five trash bags filled with hoodies, T-shirts, and other clothing destined for the Closet.

The work does increase right before a Closet night, Rutherford said, but it’s far from a full-time job for her. She gets a lot of help from volunteers, at first friends and neighbors, but “now that the word is getting out about Teen Closet people are contacting me about what they can do, how they can help,” she said.

A core group of moms help her to staff every shop-ping night, she said, which is wonderful because “I don’t have kids help at the Teen Closet.” She strives to protect the privacy of the 30 to 50 people who come to the Closet, about half of whom are kids themselves.

She wants everyone who comes to find a few items they like, and she doesn’t limit participation.

“If they actually show up here to get some clothes, they get some clothes,” she said.

Teen Closet shoppers will find plenty of basketball shorts, yoga pants, and casual clothing, but no formal wear. Rutherford apologetically explains why to Audrey Miller’s mom—Audrey volunteered for the sorting night—that she just doesn’t have the space to store such items.

“What about right before an event? There’s a winter formal at Mount Si this weekend,” Audrey’s mom asked hopefully. She had a closet, stuffed with Audrey’s past formal dresses, that she wanted to reclaim.

No luck for Miller there, but Rutherford had learned about the Dec. 8 dance, which neither of her high-schoolers had mentioned. It turns out the Teen Closet is a good place to pick up information, too.

Jingle Belles

Draft horses and wagon rides give Snoqualmie tree lighting celebration an old-fashioned touch

Story and photoS by Seth truScottEditor

From the sidewalk, windows and balconies, onlookers wave and smile as Bonnie and Belle, pulling an oversize wagon and a well-bundled family, pass.

The big Belgian horses enlivened the evening of Saturday, Dec. 1, offering free rides during Snoqualmie’s holiday cel-ebration.

The bells on the wagon jingle energetically as driver Jeff Van der Peyl navigates the intersection, cars and trucks slowing to make way.

“It’s fun to drive because of their size,” said Van Der Peyl. “You’re dealing with 4,000 pounds of draft horse.”

“It makes people happy to be around horses,” says Marcy Buckner, who, with her husband Wayne, owns a herd of the draft horses on an 80-acre Fall City farm.

“These were the tractors of yesteryear,” Buckner said. “We still like to keep that kind of stuff alive.”

The horses are trained for pulling, plowing and logging. Owning them, Marcy says, is a hobby that pays for itself.

“They know that they’re working,” she says. “They will run up the ramp of the truck when you’re taking them to do a job.”

Belle and Bonnie are sisters. Belle is the leader, and she wants to work hard, pulling more than Bonnie.

“Even though they’re sisters, they’ve got different person-alities,” Marcy says. “Bonnie kicks back. She knows Belle is doing most of the work.”

Carmichael’s True Value Hardware owners Wendy Thomas and Bryan Woolsey have paid for the holiday wagon rides for two years.

Thomas greeted riders with cookies and souvenir bell after the ride. She loves the nostalgia, and sees the rides as part of her mission as a business owner. When Thomas was a teen, she worked with horses on Bellevue’s Kelsey Creek farm.

“This is an old-fashioned store, an old-fashioned business model,” she said. “It’s about what we want to do here for our community.”

The evening also included an open house for business throughout the downtown. The city celebrated the lighting of the Christmas tree, the Cascade Team offered free photos with Santa in the gazebo, the Sno Valley Winds commu-nity band played holiday songs, and the Mount Si Chamber Choir sang carols.

Santa photos can be found at the Cascade Team website, http://www.thecascadeteam.com/local-events.php.

Expectations for a new

sports seasonVa

lley

OQUA

LMIE

With December underway, so too is another winter sports season. It’s time to see whether our winter athletes—

the basketball players, wrestlers and gymnasts—can match the amazing accomplishments of the fall, which included state performances by the Mount Si football team, volleyball team, cross country, and the possibility of a state appearance by a local golfer.

Fall sports are grand, but I love winter sports—perhaps selfishly, because I’m not getting rained on and windblown. There’s something about the thrill of standing only a few feet away the action, and being right up in the thick of it.

Winter high school sports, held in gyms, allow the reporter to do that. You’re face to to face with the game, and you can see the looks of triumph, deter-mination, and sometimes tragedy, in these young athletes’ eyes.

When I came to this newspaper, six years ago, sports weren’t part of my brief. But situations and faces change, challenges come and go, and you rise to the occasion. The way it’s done today is different, but expectations still remain.

So, for the parents and coaches out there who wonder why we do things a certain way, I’ll do my best to share how and why we cover athletics the way we do.

First, I believe that every player has a role, and as such, deserves some mention. It may seem like only the stars get the ink. But every sport deserves to get coverage equally, and every athlete worthy of note should get that recognition, even if doesn’t always work out that way. Tennis and golf are just as important to their players and parents as football and baseball are to theirs.

With only so much ink and time to go around, I’ve tried to go for that balance. I keep a folder with every sports page we do all season. On the two or three occasions when a parent or partisan would call, demanding to know why their favorite sport wasn’t getting enough ink, back to the file I’d go, to see whether coverage was indeed lopsided.

We had one fan insist that Mount Si football deserved more ink in the early season. Maybe that was true then, but the football team went pretty much the full distance this year. They got, deserv-edly, far more cov-erage than almost any other sport in November, if only because they out-lasted everybody.

Another thing about winter sports: There are only seven of them in the entire

Valley, as opposed to a dozen or so in the spring and fall seasons. That means we can put more attention on all of them, get to know the players and their stories better. And more than just the big stars get their faces in print.

I enjoy covering sports, but I’ll be the first to admit that I’m an imperfect instrument. I don’t understand some intricacies of all the events. I can’t go to every game. But what I can promise is that I’ll strive for a balanced approach, in which every sport and, hope-fully, every player is given due attention. Because in sports, as in life, we all have some role to play, some contribution to make. We all have a story.

Gene-altered foods need to be labeled

Last week, the King County Democrats unani-mously passed the resolution I wrote asking the Legislature to require food products con-taining GMOs to be labeled.

A genetically modified organism (GMO)-is a plant or an animal whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering (GE) techniques. So far, this is being done with bacteria and yeast, plants, fish, birds and mammals. The tech-niques enable the combi-nation of genetic materials

from life forms that normally do not breed with each other. For example, corn can be grown to produce its own pesticide by being injected with genetic code from a bacteria called Bacillus thu-ringiensis (or Bt). Humans exposed orally to 1000 mg/day for three to five days of Bt have shown no ill effects. However, no long-term stud-ies have been conducted.

GMOs are believed by many to have serious adverse effects on human health, particularly in children or the elderly, and to lead to environmental contamina-tion including harm to such beneficial insects as bees (the principal pollinators of apples).

The Washington Apple Commission and the U.S. Apple Association have recently announced their opposition to GE apples.

Certain people’s dietary or religious restrictions may be violated by eating foods containing GMOs. U.S. food-labeling regulations require disclosure of calorie and nutritional information, country of origin, transfat content and several speci-fied allergens, but there is no federal or state requirement to identify GE foods. Many other countries have adopted outright bans on GE foods, and 49 others (including Japan, South Korea, China, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Russia, the European Union member states and other key United States trading partners) have enacted laws mandating the labeling of GMOs on food labels.

We have several organic farms and ranches here in the Snoqualmie Valley who need to know whether the seed and feed they buy are genetically engineered or contain GMOs so they can export their products or sell them as organic products in our markets.

I believe many consumers want to know, and all are enti-tled to be informed whether the foods they purchase are genetically engineered or contain GMOs. Signatures are being collected so that Initiative 522, “The People’s Right to Know Genetically-Engineered Food Act,” which would require labeling of GE food products sold in the state, can be put on the bal-lot. Vitamin World on North Bend Way and the Nursery at Mt. Si are two local busi-nesses that are collecting sig-natures.

I urge qualified Washington residents to sign, and to gath-er others’ signatures to put Initiative 522 on the ballot. Write your 5th Legislative District State legislators, Mark Mullet, Jay Rodne, and Chad Madendanz, to adopt Initiative 522 in the upcom-

ing 63rd legislative session.The 5th District Democrats

covering Issaquah, the Snoqualmie Valley and other parts of King County have endorsed I-522, “The People's Right To Know Genetically-Engineered Food Act.”

Valley police, state troopers are part of holiday DUI sweep

The Washington Traffic Safety Commission is planning a “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign. Commission Director Darrin Grondel urges drivers to plan ahead.

“Don’t let a DUI ruin your holidays. Before you leave home for a holiday party, think about how everyone can get home safely. Designate a sober driver, take a taxi, stay the night,” Grondel says.

As part of the campaign, extra officers will be canvass-ing roadways through January 1, throughout King County, searching for alcohol-impaired drivers.

Sheriff ’s deputies and police in North Bend, Snoqualmie, Duvall/Carnation and the Washington State Patrol will par-ticipate in Washington state’s first-ever Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign.

The King County Target Zero Task Force organizes and supports this enforcement effort.

“We do not want to give up on our focus for STEM,” Belcher said, “for all the reasons you’ve already heard, for the job demands, the future and where education is going.”

Hi did, however, want to address parents’ concerns about the STEM exploratory requirement not being rigorous enough, about the availability of physical education classes, and about the need for a social studies offering.

The new freshman schedule will include language arts and algebra, as originally planned, plus two options for inte-grated science—a full year of IS 1, or IS 1 and 2 combined, Belcher said, “for those students who are prepared and ready to push that hard.”

STEM is still required, Belcher said, but students will have four options for meeting that requirement. The stan-dard offering will be a semester of Project Lead the Way (www.pltw.org) curriculum, and a semester of a STEM-based physical education class being developed by district staff, called Fit for Life. Other options include a full year of Project Lead the Way, a full year of AP Human Geography (this class is a semester-based offering, but Belcher said the social studies staff wanted to stretch the course over the full year, since the AP exam is in the spring), or a full year of a STEM-based social studies class called “The Big History Project” (www.bighistoryproject.com).

Project Lead the Way and the Big History Project both provide curriculum materials free to participating districts, Belcher said, but they require teachers to attend specific training on the curriculum before they can teach it. Since these classes fall into the Career and Technical Education category, enhanced funding will be available to the district for these offerings.

Freshman will still have two electives, including foreign language. American Sign Language, French, German and Spanish will be available in classrooms, and any other language will be offered to students online, through the Snoqualmie Valley Virtual Academy (www.svsd410.org/schools/svva).

Board members had several questions about specific classes, and brought up a recurring question about what counts as a lab-based science. Belcher asked how he could reassure the board and the community that his proposals did meet those college requirements, “I haven’t had anyone

show me the evidence that a university wouldn’t value inte-grated science compared to biology.”

He added that he consulted with the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and was told “It’s a local decision on what is a lab-based science.”

Also, he said, students who took either version of IS as freshmen would meet one lab science requirement, but they’d still need an algebra-based lab science class on their transcripts, which would be available in high school. He also noted that as freshman offerings became more advanced, the higher-level classes would have to follow suit.

Several board members expressed appreciation to Belcher for his hard work in addressing the concerns of the commu-nity, and most gave a verbal approval to the revised plan.

Student board member Connor Deutsch summed up many of their feelings with his comment, “It’s great that there are so many different options because there’s lots of different students … I think it went, kind of, from fixing problems at the freshman campus to fixing problems with Mount Si’s curriculum. And now, these are really great offerings.”

Parent Anna Sotelo, part of the Valley Coalition for Curriculum Choice group which last week called on the school district to revise its freshman curriculum, said by telephone Monday that she was “very happy” with the changes, and even more so with what they represented to the community.

In the past two years, she said, on freshman campus issues, “so many parents were just hesitant to get involved… It was wonderful to see and to show these parents that it does make a difference to get involved.”

STEM FROM 1 Mount Si students earn AP Scholar awardsFifty-eight students at Mount Si High School have earned 2012 Advanced Placement (AP) Scholar Awards in recognition of their exceptional achievement on AP exams they took last spring. This is an increase from last year’s 29 AP Scholars at Mount Si. The College Board’s national Advanced Placement Program® (AP) gives prepared students the opportunity to take college-level cours-es while in high school. Students with successful performance on AP exams may earn college credit, qualify for advanced placement in college, and stand out in the college admissions process.Success on an AP exam is defined as a score of 3 or higher (on a scale of 1 to 5.) Research shows that students who score a 3 or higher on AP exams typically experience academic success in college and have a higher college graduation rate than students who do not partici-pate in AP in high school.Seventeen Mount Si High School students received the 2012 AP Scholar with Distinction award, which recognizes students who earned an average score of at least 3.5 on all AP exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on five or more of the exams: Shannon Barnhart, Chace Carlson, Brian Copeland, Molly Cordell, Landon Edwards, Riley Edwards, Gillian Goodwin, Azhar Khandekar, Jeremy Knight, Margaret Krivanec, John Marshall, Sally Miller, Robert Rollins, Syed Abbas Tahirzadeh, Ben Wheeler, Taylor Wiles and Alena Wooldridge. In addition, Wooldridge qualified as a 2012 National AP Scholar, averaging 4 or more on all AP exams last year, and scoring 4 or higher on at least eight exams the preceding year. Fifteen received the 2012 AP Scholar with Honor award for averag-ing 3.25 or higher on all AP exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on four or more of these exams: Jessica Adams, Molly Boord, Brynn Davis, Madeline Gill, Jennifer Green, Maria Kajercline, Matthew Kawachi, Haley McColgan, Maura Murphy, Sam Omalie, Emily Pemberton, Kyle Seymour, Ryan Sharon, Kayla Tostevin and Megan Wachtendonk.Another 26 students earned the 2012 AP Scholar award for scoring 3 or higher on three or more AP exams: Eden Altwies, Delaney Aydel, Alex Censullo, Daniele Curley, Heidi DeHart, Joshua Hamann, Rhett Haney, Janna Haskin, Rachel Hayford, Rachel Hong, Andrew Kim, Carmen Kroschel, Erin Lamos, Molly Mabel, Van Magnan, Shannon McEldowney, Erik Meister, Sierra Morin, Lucy Murdoch, Mari Patis, Alex Pease, Lydia Pinkley, Lexie Read, Lynell Solene, Courtney Wilhelm and Emma Wright.This school year, Mount Si High School is offering 17 AP college-level courses that cover a broad range of academic disciplines, and an enrollment of 728 seats are being filled in AP classes by MSHS students. Advanced Placement courses offered at Mount Si High School this year include biology, calculus, chemistry, computer science, English language, English literature, environmental science, European his-tory, government and politics, physics, Spanish, statistics, studio art (2D and 3D), US history, and world history. In addition, Mount Si students have access to seven AP subjects online through the Snoqualmie Valley Virtual Academy: art history, French, English language & composition, macroeconomics, micro-economics, psychology, and US government.For information, visit http://apcentral.collegeboard.com.

4,800 miles and countingMount Si alumnus starts a heart-

health fundraiser on hiking odysseyBrad Hankins, a 1986 graduate of Mount

Si High School, was featured in a recent issue of the South Whidbey Record, just before he completed a 2,650-mile hike on the Pacific Crest Trail. Hankins is the son of Barry Hankins of North Bend and Fran Abel of Whidbey Island. Barry joined Brad for the 72-mile stretch of the trail between Snoqualmie and Stevens Pass.

By BEN WATANABESouth Whidbey Record Reporter

Brad Hankins has spent months in the wilderness.

He crossed one international border and two state lines. Hankins, a Whidbey Island resident, is in Central Oregon on the Pacific Crest Trail. It is Day 122 of his journey, and there are a few more weeks left before he will finish his trip.

Back in May, Hankins started at the U.S.-Mexico border. As he trekked the trail, Hankins has hiked hills and climbed rock walls. He ascended peaks, circumnavigated forest fires and met fellow crest walkers. Somewhere along the 2,650-mile path from Mexico to Canada, Hankins found a pur-pose to keep plodding along.

Hankins is raising funds through his sojourn to support the Pacific Crest Trail Association and the American Heart Association. The trail association is a non-profit whose mission is to “protect, preserve and promote the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as an internationally significant resource.” And the heart association aims to “build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.”

With the help of his mother, Langley resi-dent Fran Abel, he created the website www.heartonthetrail.com, which has a $1 dona-tion for Hankins to etch hearts, easily wiped away by boots, wind or rain, in the ground along the Pacific Crest Trail. Hankins’ goal is to raise and evenly donate $10,000 — a lot of trail hearts.

“Inspired by the need to improve my physical and mental health, I’ve spent a year hiking, including a heartbreak along the way,” Hankins wrote on the heartonthetrail webpage. “I have since committed my last

three months of hiking to raising money for heart disease (research) and hiking trails.”

His health was in a bit of jeopardy in late August. As Hankins made his way through Oregon, forest fires burned along the Pacific Crest Trail and his traveling group was escorted through one of the fires. Hankins wrote on Day 113 (Aug. 26) that lightning is the suspected fire starter.

“And we’ve had lots of lightning,” Hankins wrote. “But, given all the signs of inap-propriate camping behavior and the gen-eral lack of knowledge regarding wilderness camping do’s and don’ts, I have concerns.”

“Lightning or no lightning, both the trail and the hikers would benefit from better outdoor preparation.”

Hiking well-known and lengthy trails is a hobby for Hankins. Earlier this year, Hankins walked New Zealand’s 1,800-mile Te Araroa Trail and finished in April. He had the time only after his architecture firm Design Build Brad went flat as home con-struction and the housing market dropped.

His journey was far from over. He flew to Mexico and began his conquest of the Pacific Crest Trail. Hankins planned to reach British Columbia earlier this autumn, the culmination of nearly 11 months away from Whidbey Island and his home.

Some elements of his home came to him in July. Abel met her son at a few points in California, where she acted as a “trail angel,” leaving cold drinks along the path, picking up trash and taking hikers into towns to resupply.

“I never put together the significance of the word ‘crest,’” Abel said. “They’re really high up.”

Since completing the Pacific Crest Trail hike on October 5, Hankins has continued his fundraising efforts for Heart on the Trail. He hopes to raise $10,000 to be split between the American Heart Association and the Pacific Crest Trail Association. His next trip takes him to China, where he plans to hike the 150-miles Annapurna Circuit in Nepal, after having some dental work done.

“I’m taking my trekking poles, It’s a very strenuous trail,” he said. He plans to draw hearts on that trail, too.

Hankins writes about his adventures in his blog, http://dbbrad.blogspot.com, and you can donate to his organization by visiting heartonthetrail.com.

Santa’s coming to North Bend

Boxley’s Place in North Bend will be hosting one of the night’s big stars Saturday, and Santa, too.

While most families will be lining up outside the restau-rant around 5:30 p.m. Saturday for photos with Santa in the fireplace room, a slightly older crowd will be anticipating the appearance later that evening of singer Kelly Eisenhour.

“She lives right here in North Bend, and she’s kind of a rock star,” says Danny Kolke, Boxley’s owner and coordina-tor of musical artists appearing in local venues throughout the evening. “I’m really excited she’ll be here!”

The Boxley’s Music Fund is sponsoring Eisenhour’s appearance, as well as music at the North Bend Bar and Grill and Pioneer Coffee.

Kolke is also excited for the festivities that will shed a new, and charming light on the community he’s been dedi-cated to for years.

“I think it’s really important to light up the town,” he said, “It just looks pretty, and the town needs it.”

“He’s looking to support and help every business in our downtown,” city economic development director Gina Estep said of Kolke.

High SChool winter Sports previewReal determinationThe basketball court at Cedarcrest High School has been a virtual stomping grounds for seniors Molly Hammontree, Courtney McKinney, Sarah Stauffer and Kaelyn Campbell.For four years, these four seniors have started on varsity. This year could well be their year, to do things the Red Wolf girls team has never done.“We want to be the first Cedarcrest girls team to win the league championship, and the first to go to state in the history of the school,” says head coach Brad Knowles, who’s helmed the program for two years.“We hold ourselves accountable in practice, and work hard against each other to get better,” McKinney says.With their time on varsity, “we’ve helped build up the program,” says Campbell. “It’s been through hard work.”Campbell, ar post, is personally working to rebound and score when she gets the shot. “We’re really fast,” she says. “We can run teams to death.”Hammontree, who spent the fall hustling as a cross coun-try athlete, says basketball is the most team-oriented sport she plays. “We’ve played together since fifth grade,” she adds.

Who’s got game?Experience is the hallmark of the Red Wolves boys’ basketball team this year. This group of seasoned athletes, led by six seniors and last year’s league MVP, are counting on their experi-ence to lead them through a challenging season, all the way to the Sundome in Yakima. “Everybody’s going to be tough this year,” said senior and co-captain Zach Taylor, a strategic guard whose strong shooting, averaging almost 20 points per game, helped him to the honor of Cascade Conference MVP last season. “There are no bad teams,” added senior Brett Young during a recent practice. Not many teams will have the same seniority as Cedarcrest’s, though, with half a varsity lineup of seniors who’ve played basketball together since grade school, backed up mostly by juniors. “We have a solid team,” said head coach Mark Prince, “and these kids have high expectations this year.” Last year’s near miss at the regional tournament -- Cedarcrest lost by one point in a first-round heartbreaker -- has inspired the 2012-13 Red Wolves, and their coach, to be ready for all comers, from their perennial rival Kings, to their love-hate match-ups with the Sultan Turks.

Mount Si High School SPORTSMaking an impactOne year ago, two players that would otherwise have made big impacts to the Mount Si boys team were riding pine due to injury.Now, Trent Riley, a senior, and Tyler McCreadie, a junior, are back from the sidelines. Expect them to make a big difference this year on a reloaded team that includes varsity-experienced players Levi Botten, Jason Smith, and Griffin McLain, Beau Shain, Tyler Button and Jack Nelson. Eli Gogan moves up from junior varsity, while Parker Dumas looks to make an impact as a freshman newcomer.“All our guys are older and bigger,” said Botten. “We’re going to come together more, be a closer-knit team than last year.”Smith, who will share shooting duties with Riley, puts high expectations on the team, and has his eye on Mercer and Bellevue.To make up for lost time, Riley’s got definite goals.“I want to do the best I can,” specifically league awards and player honors. He’s put in time with a top club, Friends of Hoops. As a point guard, it should be exciting to see how this highly athletic, offensive player of the year in football, transitions to the game.

their time to shineOnce you’re a die-hard gymnast, there’s no going back. That’s certainly the case for Mount Si’s crop of seniors this winter. Hannah Richmond, Elizabeth Holmes and Jessica Trotto have been on the varsity team all four years of high school.Coach Jessica Easthope has watched them grow up in front of her eyes.“They were all talented, as people, which has only improved their gymnastics,” she says. “They have all just blossomed.”Trotto, a captain, remains part of the team. But a back injury will likely keep her on the sidelines. Expect Trotto to support her team mentally and vocally, helping encourage younger gymnasts while having her varsity team’s back.Junior Carissa Castagno, and sophomores Jenn Rogers, Mackenzie Brown and Hailey Johnson are all expected to be important players in the Wildcats’ core team. Rogers went furthest last season, the highest scorer in a complete contin-gent at state, where Mount Si took fifth. The team was undefeated last season, taking second at districts. Mount Si has high expectations of returning to state. Easthope hopes to see the team break into the top three.“This team is the best we’ve had so far,” said Richmond. “If we work hard at it, we can definitely get there.”“I’ve definitely seen a lot of improvement from everybody so far,” Holmes says—particularly on beam. “That will be the secret to state.”“The main key is confidence,” Trotto said. “That can make or break you.”

2012 winter sports Preview

Experience pays offThe Wildcat wrestling team will benefit from a depth that comes from years of experience on the mat. Mount Si, under four-year head coach Tony Schlotfedlt, includes a set of varsity returning seniors including Nate Whited (220 pounds), Tim Corrie (182), Max Kenaghy (160), Mitch Rorem (195), Cole Palmer (170) and Bruce Stuart (145). “We’re going to do pretty well this year,” predicts Whited, who returns at 220. He took fourth in Kingco last year; overall, Mount Si was Kingco’s champion team.This sport prepares him for a career goal with the U.S. Marines. He runs two miles daily and works out after school.He’s pumped about beating rival and potentially toughest competitor, Mercer Island.Every sports fuels another sport for Tim Corrie, who will wrestle at 182. He ran this fall on the Mount Si cross-country team, one of the faster boys, and lifted weights. Wrestling is a big focus, but it also powers up the balanced senior for track.Corrie seeks to master a few more moves, and “This year, I want to make state, not just by a little bit, but by a lot,” he says.Stuart recalls being caught early and laid flat by a Bellevue opponent late last season. Ever since, he’s been hungry for a rematch, pushing the cardio, running plenty, and working on speed.He expects the Wildcats to send plenty of wrestlers to state.“We have the mentality now,” he says. “We went from a team that wanted to do well at league to a team who thinks we can place at state.”

the wildcat connectionLook for team building experiences to make a difference as the 2012 Mount Si girls basketball team comes together. “Last year we were really close as a team,” said senior guard Katie Swain. “That was really reflected in our play.”Mount Si girls ended last winter in a heartbreak in-or-out game at Bellevue. Senior guard Grace Currie wants to see the team, new players included, go beyond the league barrier.“I think everyone will,” she said. Teams that these Wildcats have their eyes on include Juanita and Bellevue.Mount Si is connecting to that end. On any given day, “We’re here with each other,” says Currie.Molly Sellers, another senior, has been out with a knee injury, but is excited to return soon. She brings a crucial shooting component.Also, look for sophomore Elizabeth Prewitt to make a difference in games this year. She stepped up for useful shooting last season.Katy Lindor, who comes from a family with a long line of siblings on varsity, is expected to do a good job of getting players the ball and keeping things spread out on the floor.You can follow Mount Si girls basketball at http://www.mshsgirlsbasketball.com/

Driven to succeedLook to seniors Carlos Toledano and Nick Decker to lead the pack of Red Wolves wrestlers this winter.Toledano, who will hold down the 152-pound class, and Decker, expected to weigh in at about 140, trained hard for the season. They’re back and looking strong.Toledano took fifth in state last season, and wrestles extensively, year-round, with Snoqualmie Valley Wrestling Club. Both boys took part in an intensive two-week camp this summer to build their skills.Wrestling is life for Toledano.“I dedicate my life to it. It’s all I do all year,” he says.Combatting illness, he took fifth at state last year. His goal this year: To be a state champion.He wants to see his team push to succeed. Practice is important.“You can’t have a lazy partner—you won’t get any better,” Toledano says. “You have to push each other. You both have to be driven, or else you’ll take short-cuts.”Decker got to regionals last year, and like Toledano, he’s hungry for a title.Both attended the same two-week camp in Oregon this year.“It was tough,” Decker said, with an emphasis on run-ning and wrestling.Smaller in numbers this winter, this team, he says, is a unique group. “There’s no one else like us,” Decker says.“Just keep pushing,” he advises his teammates. “You can’t give up.”

Winter Pineapple Classic runs through North Bend farm, raises $450K to help fight blood cancer

The Hawaiian-themed Winter Pineapple Classic, a five-kilometer fun run benefiting the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, was held on Saturday, Nov. 10, at Mountain Meadows Farm in North Bend.

The run raised an estimated $450,000 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Washington/Alaska chapter. Nearly 2,500 partici-pants, some donning grass skirts, costumes and even a bikini or two, battled the winter elements to finish the 5k obstacle course and help raise money for the fight against blood cancers.

“This is our seventh Winter Pineapple Classic and we are once again blown away by the amazing outpouring of support and enthusiasm from the thousands of people in our community who joined us,” said Wilma Comenat, deputy executive director of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Washington/Alaska chapter. “The event continues to grow both locally and nationally. With every step participants take, we move closer to finding a cure for blood cancers.”

At the end of the race, participants were rewarded with a full-scale Hawaiian luau that featured free food and beer provided by Kauai Family Restaurant and Georgetown Brewing Company.

The Winter Pineapple Classic was developed seven years ago by Eric Cox after his wife and son were able to successfully recover from a simultaneous battle with breast cancer and leu-kemia. Since its inception in 2006, the event has raised nearly $2.5 million for LLS’ mission, and has become one of the most anticipated fundraising events of the winter season.

Duvall seeks artists for centennial gateway

The year 2013 will mark the city of Duvall’s centennial, and to commemorate the event, the city is seeking an artist or artists to create sculptures to be placed along a promenade leading to the historic railroad depot and McCormick Park.

The Duvall Cultural Commission is now accepting pro-posals for the project. The concept should include three or five sculptures, representing Duvall’s history, or the river theme, both of which were highlighted in public art dur-ing a 2008 Main Street remodel. The city wants to extend these themes to the park entrance. Artwork should be between 2 and 8 feet high, durable for an outdoor environ-ment, and reflect one of more era of the city. The project is open to professional artists, 18 older, who live or work within the Puget Sound Region, and have experience in outdoor installations. For more details, visit http://duvall-culture.org, or contact Kass Holdeman, Duvall Community Coordinator at 425-939-8069 or send e-mail to [email protected].
