Sheriff continues search for missing

Carnation womanLower Valley’s Bardy

not seen since ThursdayFor a week, the King County

Sheriff’s office has been seeking Lorene Bardy.

The 53- y e a r - o l d Carnat ion woman has not been seen since early the morning of Thursday, April 26.

She has life-threatening medical issues requiring medication, which was found at the house. Searchers aren’t sure what condition Bardy might be in, if found.

“We’re going to be cautiously optimistic, and move forward,” though, said Katie Larson with the sheriff’s department.

A search Saturday in the Carnation area was led by sheriff’s staff with search and rescue volun-teers, but Bardy was not found.

“We’re going to expand the perimeter around her house, move out farther,” said Larson.

Bardy lived in the 29200 block of Northeast 52nd Street in Carnation, with her husband. He was out of town the day she went missing. No foul play is suspected.

Bardy is described as 5-foot-7 and 125 pounds, with brown-blonde hair and blue eyes. She wears glasses. Anyone who has seen her is asked to call the King County Sheriff at (206) 296-3311 or 911.

Lost sled dog captured in Fall City after seven weeks on the loose

By Valley Record Staff

Smilla’s wild tour of the Snoqualmie Valley and greater Eastside is over.

The Norwegian sled dog, who spent seven weeks on the loose after busting out of her crate March 10, has been captured.

Smilla is fortunate: Not every dog lost for so long gets to come home, says Jim Branson, president of the Missing Pet Partnership and a lead organizer of the Valley search.

“Smilla did me a favor by letting me catch her,” he said.

On her way home from the Iditarod sled race in Alaska, the dog broke free when an overloaded crate broke. Locals noticed her

many times as the dog circled Fall City, rang-ing to Preston and as far as Renton but resist-ing every capture attempt.

Volunteers finally threw a net over her on Sunday, April 29, at Twin Rivers Golf Course, after slipping her the mickey, via some dog food.

Last week, Smilla ran from Fall City to the Greenwood Cemetery in Renton, 20 miles away. She spent the day in the cemetery and then ran back to Fall City where she started.

The partnership received reports on Saturday and Sunday that Smilla was trotting around Twin Rivers Golf Course in Fall City. Going to the course, Branson and MPP vol-unteers Scott Dungan and Miriam Kelly were watching Smilla and keeping her safe.

Many people, luck, skill helped police

end standoff at Peter Keller’s ridge bunker


Luck, skill, and commu-nity support led police to the hideout of suspected murder-er Peter Keller, North Bend Police Chief Mark Toner said Tuesday, May 1.

“The community did a fantastic job. We had a lot of tips, and I don’t recall anybody who was in a panic,” Toner said, in a report to the North Bend City Council about the events of the past week

Although the investigation of the murders and fire that Keller is charged with is still open, Toner was able to offer some details on the investi-gation, and the police work that led to Keller’s capture Saturday.

One factor was the num-ber of officers. Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman Cindi West estimated there were “about three dozen” members of vari-

ous SWAT and tactical teams on the site Friday morning, as they searched for the bunker.

The Snoqualmie Point trail and road were closed around 5 a.m. that day. Members of the Sheriff’s SWAT team hit the trail by 8 a.m. Toner said, and by 1 p.m., following

the smell of the woodsmoke they’d spotted from the Valley floor, they had located and surrounded the bunker, Seattle SWAT teams approaching from below, and Sheriff’s staff approaching from above.

Gone are the dark wood beams, the handmade quilts, and the sweeping balcony overlooking the first floor. In its place, there are two small activity rooms and a large “great room” plus restrooms, a reading nook with easy chairs, and a bank of computers arrayed down one hallway.

“I never would have dreamed there was this much room up here,” said member Donna Torluenke, on her first day back in the center.

Since last August, Torluenke, from Fall City, had been going to the center’s temporary home at Camp Don Bosco. The senior center building was closed for a $600,000 remodel to add activity rooms, restrooms and storage on the second floor, lower the soaring ceiling in the main hall, and make safety improvements throughout. Staff spent the week of April 23 to 27 moving back into the space, and opened the doors to their new old home on April 30.

“It was great here Monday morning, because people were coming by just to see it,” said volunteer reception-ist Sandi Olsen. “The whole place was just vibrating with people’s excitement.”

At first, it was nervous excitement. Many couldn’t envi-sion how lowering the height-of-the-building ceiling in the main hall—one of the senior center’s hallmarks for years —would affect the place.

“They were really worried,” said Denise McKenney, a volunteer driver for the center, who heard from many residents throughout the remodel. “Most of them were surprised how nice it looks.”

“We wondered how they were going to do it,” added Torluenke.

Fresh white walls and plenty of recessed lights in the white ceiling gave the room a dramatically different look, and an effect like the first day of sun after a long winter.

“It’s just so bright,” one woman chirped as she scurried in and out of the main hall, getting the noon meal ready to serve.

“It’s actually so bright… we used the dimmers in the exercise class,” said program coordinator Amy O’Bryant.

Quiet, too, said many members, who could actually converse and listen across the table about the new sushi place in town, or the national news. For a tall man like Del Moore, whose wife, Nancy, volunteers at the center, it was especially gratifying that the lowered ceiling did not result in a low ceiling.

“I’m really pleased with how this turned out. I thought the ceiling might be a lot lower,” he said.

Hap Berg was in the minority on the ceiling issue. He knew it would be fine years ago, when he “was the only member who was a general contractor,” and led a 1991 remodel of the space. He’s been waiting for it to happen since then.

“Isn’t this great?” he asks a staff member as he tours the upstairs improvements. “I wish my wife could have seen it.”

The late Mrs. Huntley Berg, he explained, “was fighting to have this space filled in then, and we had the architect, and we had the money to do it.”

They didn’t have the OK to do it back then, he added, “But it sure was worth waiting for.”

He was with the majority on that opinion. People toured the building throughout the day, noting

what’s changed, and what’s stayed the same, and always asking if people remembered how it was before. That link to the past was important, and the project planners clearly knew it.

“There are still places where you get back in touch with the original building, and the touches are lovely,” said Olsen. In the reception area, the wood ceiling stayed, and on the second floor, you can find beadboard accents at the top of one wall.

Oden points to the ceiling just above the second floor reading nook. “I like this part especially, because you can still see the sweep of the ceiling.”

Best of all, though, was just being back home. “It’s so nice to be able to do equipment loans again,”

said Olsen. Walkers and other medical aids normally loaned out from the senior center were put in storage during the remodel, and “That’s a big resource for the

community,” Olsen said. “Now we’re back here, I feel like we’re

back in the community,” said McKenney. Camp Don Bosco was a beautiful loca-

tion, and “we felt very fortunate that we were able to stay there the entire time… We’re very grateful to Camp Don Bosco,” Amara Oden, senior center director said.

With its distance from Carnation and rustic setting, though, it was a challenge for some mem-bers, and attendance did drop off.

Beverly Hornig, a volunteer registering guests for lunch, said attendance has been rising steadily.

“Yesterday, they were already at 63,” she said. “They really like it here.”

Personally, she didn’t mind the compromise, but she is glad to be back.

“I am going to take my car to be washed today, I haven’t been able to wash it in months,” she announced. “I was also able to wear some nice heels today,” she said, showing them off. “It makes a big difference.”

The camp did offer even nicer accommodations for Adult Day Health, a day-long program for a variety of frail patients suffering from physical disabilities, dementia, and other conditions.

“We were in the Thunderbird Lodge,” said the program’s activity coordinator, Joan Wheeler, “and every day, we built this rip-roaring fire. It was great, we had S’mores, almost every day.”

But the lodge was a stand-alone building, and “it’s nice to have seniors around us again,” she added.

“Seven months was a long time to be out of this facility, for all of our seniors,” said Oden, who is already pursuing grants for future renovations to the building. New siding will probably be installed this summer, Oden said, and “the plan is ultimately to reconfigure some more spaces upstairs, to redo our adult day health area, and to remodel the kitchen.”

Until then, members will just enjoy what they’ve got. “I think we all approve of it,” said Torluenke. “We can be

very proud of this.”

Above, Amy O’Bryant, program coordinator, gives Donna Turluenke a brief tour of the new computer lab in the senior center. The computers, at the top of the stairs, are directly across from a large piece of beadboard wall, left alone in the remodel.

Newspaper, partners can help reward, inspire

carriers with a scholarship

At lower left on this page, you’ll find the Record’s masthead, which names

the people responsible for putting together the paper in your hands. What’s missing from that list are the unsung heroes of the paper trade: The dozens of carriers, teens and adults among them, who hit the streets weekly in every kind of weather to ensure it comes to the reader.

Valley springs are serious affairs. With my tongue firmly in cheek, I’ve noticed that late-ly, local winters have dragged into midsum-mer.

With all that weather to contend with, good carriers show their worth by making sure that papers get to our customers in readable condi-tion, despite all the rain, snow, wind, ice, floods, and other obstacles of nature. We ask a lot of our carriers. To them I say, thank you for all that you do.

Our delivery has come a long way in the two years since we began

home delivery, with much credit due to the Record’s circulation manager, Patricia Hase, and her efforts on behalf of our small army of delivery carriers, instilling a customer service mindset.

We started the youth car-rier program here to help young people build their work ethic and job potential. It’s actually cheaper to hire adults to drive the paper around, but we wanted to make sure the dominant percentage of our carriers are in middle or high school. While the pay is modest, the opportunity helps Valley youth develop entrepreneuralism, follow-through, the importance of cus-tomer service and getting to know their neighborhood and the com-munity at large.

Once a month, we recognize the

fine people who fling you the paper, with a Carrier of the Month spot-light in our pages. We plan to do more.

Recently, the Valley Record started a Youth Carrier Scholarship program to reward and inspire our young team members. Scholarships can be used for college, or trade and vocational tech training.

Applicants need to have spent a year, at the least, as a carrier, be between 15 and 18 years old, with a minimum grade-point average of 2.7. They also need to perform well, have few complaints and get a rec-ommendation from a community member, neighbor or teacher.

In this first round, the application also included an essay, which asked young people to think about the impact that they make on their com-

munities, and the lessons they’ve learned from their route.

Scholarships prove to sthe fami-lies of our carries that we under-stand the hard choices being made in these economic times, and that the newspaper has faith in the suc-cessful contribution our youth car-riers will grow to make.

The first carrier scholarship recip-ients will be announced very soon. Later this year, we will begin the application process for the scholar-ship’s second selection. We are also seeking local business sponsors to help us build up the awards.

You can help. To learn more or help sponsor a scholarship, con-tact Patricia Hase at [email protected] or e-mail Publisher William Shaw at [email protected].

Paper helped make our 50th anniversary special

Thank you for your abun-dance of information on our 50th wedding anniversary on Friday the 13th of 2012. Because of your publicity, we saw many old friends at our party, who would not have known about the event otherwise.

Additionally, KING TV picked up the article and interviewed us that night, for later viewing several times—our 15 minutes of fame!

Our children, Julie, of Seattle, and Ryan, of Wenatchee, hosted the event for their appreciative parents.

Thanks again for the cov-erage.

Day of Silence should honor a different group: The veterans

Last year, our United States Congress passed a law making it legal for gay and lesbian individuals to serve openly in the United

States Armed Forces. Also, a couple of months

ago, the Washington State Legislature passed a law making same-sex marriages legal here in Washington State.

So, isn’t it time for all of our state’s public high schools to discontinue the annual Day of Silence events they’ve been conducting to show emphathy for gay and lesbian individuals, espe-cially since some individu-als are indicating these Day of Silence events are now meant to “honor and pay tribute to gay and lesbian individuals” just for being silent about their sexual preferences?

Or better yet, maybe our state legislature should pass a new law requiring that these annual Day of Silence events in our public high schools be used to “honor and pay tribute to our nation’s wounded warriors”, many of whom often spend the remainder of their lives suffering in silence due to the terrible wounds they sustained while serving all of us?

After all, our current state law just requires a one-hour Veterans Day assembly for all veterans instead of a full day of observance.

Family safety fair a big success

Sno-Valley Indoor Playground’s annual Safety Fair, held on Friday, May 4, was a rousing success, if you ask the little folks who lined up to explore a real fire truck and a sheriff ’s car! 50 free bike helmets were distribut-ed to local families, compli-mentary child car-seat safety checks were provided, and there were bags of informa-tion and coloring materials for each family. We’d like to thank the professionals who made it a great experience for the youngest members of our community: Eastside Fire & Rescue, the city of North Bend Police/King County Sheriff ’s Department, and the ‘Car Seat Ladies’ (Sue Emery and Kathy Kruger). As the Indoor Playground winds up its season before our sum-mer vacation, we are looking for new parents to join our all-volunteer board to keep the nonprofit Playground operating.

Contact our group at [email protected] if you want to keep this great community organiza-tion alive and vibrant.

Thursday, May 7, 1987 King County Superior Court set bail at $100,000 for transient Robert M. Zimmerman, who is accused of a North Bend armed robbery and kidnapping that took place April 28. According to the pros-ecutor’s office, Barbara May Allie, a maid at the North Bend Motel, was accosted by

the 19-year-old at noon that day. The man, who brandished a sawed off shotgun, forced Allie to give him money from the safe, put

her in the back seat of her car, and took off for Oregon. Ten hours later, a toll-taker saw her and called authorities.• A move by an opposition group to isolate city council members for input on the Snoqualmie Ridge development project pro-voked a discussion on the appearance of fairness. The Friends of the Snoqualmie Valley, which seeks to block a proposal by the Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company to develop land on the Lake Alice Plateau, had sought meetings with individual council members.

Thursday, May 10, 1962A recognized authority with more than a half-century of engi-neering experience stated matter-of-factly that two-multipur-pose dams on the Snoqualmie River will ‘start to materialize in the very near future.’ Bertram P. Thomas, chief engineer of King County Flood Control Division, made the statement at the latest gathering of the North Bend Chamber of Commerce at Thompson’s Homestead Restaurant.

Opening a business is never an easy undertaking; but, when it’s in your home-town, there’s a sense you have to do everything right. This is home, after all.

When the opportunity to open a Pioneer Coffee retail location in North Bend arose, Pioneer Coffee Roasting Company owners JoAnna and Chris Madsen didn’t waste much time.

After first spending time with a drive-thru location in Fall City, Chris Madsen started Pioneer in Cle Elum more than 10 years ago. The company has grown to include not only whole-sale coffee roasting and supplying commercial cli-ents across the country and online, but also two retail cafes located in Cle Elum and West Seattle.

But JoAnna Madsen’s mother, Julie Pleasants, who now serves as the company’s general man-ager, and sister, DeAnna Haverfield, who serves as Pioneer’s wholesale and customer service man-ager, wanted to return to North Bend, which the family has called home for some time. Both Madsen and Haverfield grew up in the Snoqualmie Valley. Haverfield still lives here, and had been commuting to Cle Elum to work for more than a year.

“We knew North Bend would be a great place for a Pioneer Café location and that DeAnna would be ecstatic to not have to com-mute so far,” Madsen said.

Haverfield said she is visualizing the new Pioneer Coffee café in North Bend as a place where the com-munity will come together. She said she’s focusing her excitement and positive anxiousness into making sure the Valley community feels at home. She has to pause during conversation because furniture—includ-ing a very comfy couch—is arriving.

“Pioneer is a very com-munity-oriented company,” Madsen said. We plan to be involved in as much as pos-sible—supporting youth is important to us, and other local businesses, as well.” In fact, much of the prepa-rations for the new North Bend location were put on hold while the entire clan attended the Snoqualmie Valley Little League open-ing day ceremonies on April 28 at Torguson Park.

In the coming days, the entire Pioneer Coffee team also will need to decide on additional lighting, a coat of paint, diaper changing sta-tions, as well as where the café’s traditional mural will be created.

But the three women have a bit of a blueprint already with the Cle Elum location of Pioneer Coffee.

“North Bend will have a similar look and feel to Cle Elum,” Madsen said. “The products will also be the same for the most part, with some special items and a more kid-friendly menu.”

Doors to the North Bend Pioneer café will open on May 12, with a more for-mal grand opening event to come a few weeks later, Pleasants said.

“We’ll be occupying a spot where a lot of folks were already coming together,” Haverfield said. “My hope is that we can elevate that even further.”

“It’s about the coffee,” she said, quoting the Pioneer Coffee slogan, “but it’s also about community. This is home; I’m home; I want everyone to feel that way when they come in, too.”

Hospital’s stroke, heart

care level upped by DOHThe Washington Department

of Health recently categorized Snoqualmie Valley Hospital as Level II Cardiac Center of

Care and Level III Stroke Center within a new facility classifica-

tion system. Now, local emergency medi-cal services (EMS) personnel have the option to transport patients in critical stroke or cardiac condition directly to

Snoqualmie Valley Hospital to reduce initial transfer times, where care coordination can

begin. “Snoqualmie Valley Hospital

has strong collaborative relationships with area hos-

pitals to ensure that patients receive the right care at the

right time regardless of where that care occurs,” said Rachel Weber, Director of Nursing at

Snoqualmie Valley Hospital. “Given the hospital’s new categorizations for stroke and cardiac care, those in

the Snoqualmie Valley and surrounding areas can now receive care sooner, which

could save lives.”

Heart of the Valley


Mount Si defenders link up in last,

heartbreaking push for league glory

They may not have made all the goals, but they did their part to ensure success for the whole team.

They’re the line: Mount Si soccer team’s defend-ers, and they faced a major test in the last week against league leader Mercer Island and league tournament foe Jaunita.

Mount Si tied with Mercer on Friday, 1-1, then had its playoff hopes dashed unexpectedly on Monday, May 7, against the Rebels, 3-2.

Eying their hoped-for push to state last week, Mount Si’s keeper, Hunter

Malberg, and defensive core, helmed by sweeper Johnny Cramer and stop-per Aaron Baumgardner, shared their critical role as the all-seeing eyes and stra-tegic voice of the team.

“On the back line, it’s crucial to communicate all the time,” Baumgardner said. When they’re linked up, the team plays cohe-sively. “We’ve gotten a lot better throughout the sea-son,” and intended to be well prepared for playoffs.

Following Mount Si’s narrow win Tuesday night, May 1, over Bellevue, head coach Darren Brown and assistant Ben Tomlisson emphasized balance and tighter talk for the defense.

The transition during games from defense to offense and back was a major focus as Mount Si

headed for its showdown against Mercer for the league crown Friday.

“It’s now or never,” Brown said.

Mount Si baseball claims KingCo crown, players breaking into record books

By Seth truScottEditor

Mount Si on Tuesday downed Lake Washington with Reece Karalus’ smooth, confident pitching and some pow-erful hits by what is becoming the Wildcat’s definite line-up.

On Wednesday, the team handled the visiting Interlake Saints, 4-2, to claim the Kingco title for 2012, led by senior Trevor Lane’s lightning strikeouts on the mound.

Bringing heat

On the line

See THe LINe, 10

See HeAT, 10


Lane struck out 17 Saints, and Mount Si again brought the hits. Reece Karalus was Mount Si’s heavy hitter, with a double that brought home Lane in the fourth. He had a run of his own off a Connor Swift at-bat.

In the fifth, Brian Woolley had a single that brought home Ryan Atkinson. Woolley stole second and came home himself on a Karalus single.

The win followed Mount Si’s masterful home game Tuesday, May 1, against Lake Washington, with big smacks by Trevor Taylor, lead hitter Joey Cotto, Lane and Connor Swift. Karalus pitched in that game, tallying 12 strikeouts.

“We’re starting to get hot,” said head coach Elliott Cribby. “When this team gets hot, it’s a scary juggernaut.”

The coach described Cotto’s bat prowess as “lightning in a bottle.” The junior has led the lineup for six games.

Karalus, whose throws have been in the mid-90s, was happy to be throwing strikes, knowing the team’s hits are backing him up.

Mount Si’s pitching staff have been per-

forming strong, “as advertised,” the coach said, and catcher Zach Usselman is growing in skill and strength, continuing to impress.

“Without him, I don’t think we’d be any-where close to where we are now,” Cribby said.

Mount Si is now 12-2 in league, 17-3 overall this season.

Into the record bookLane and Karalus are now deep into the

Mount Si baseball record books, and have the potential to set new numbers this season.

In 2005, player Adam Dentz set the record for strikeouts at 83, but both Karalus and Lane look primed to bust that number.

Karalus has 71, and Lane, with 67, just surpassed his prior record for third-highest in 2011, 63.

All three Mount Si pitchers—Trevor Taylor included—made the records last year.

Karalus already holds the team’s third-high-est opponent batting average, from last season and just behind Frank Tassara’s two prior seasons, with 0.169.

That statistic measures a pitcher’s ability to prevent hits during official at-bats.

Karalus also holds the record for saves with four in 2010, and the number-two record for season earned run average with 1.25.

Lane already holds the Mount Si record for wins as a pitcher with seven in 2011.

Taylor is among a trio tied for second place with six last year. Karalus now has six, Lane five, and Taylor four this season.

Karalus also looks to have broken his prior ERA average with 0.77; He was second to Dentz with 1.25 in 2010.

Mount Si grabbed victory on May Day, 3-2, by the skin of its teeth—on the strength of two goals by just-returned senior Dane Aldrich and a penalty kick by iceman Davis Karaica.

“I’m too excited right now!” said Aldrich. “It was a great game to come back to.”

Tomlisson praised the team’s “ability to roll up our sleeves and come back, not give up.

“We’ve got some dynamic forward players who, given the right opportunity, will get us goals,” the coach said. “There’s a balance between going forward and doing the right defending.”

Defense is about control and connectivity, with players fill-ing roles or changing them as needed.

Stopper-sweeper combo Baumgardner and Cramer compliment each other. Strong and fast, Cramer helps make for the perfect duo, his team-mate says.

“Our senior, Johnny Cramer, is a really strong sweeper,” Tomlisson said. “Aaron has been injured, but is an exceptional tal-ent as a stopper.”

Mount Si’s group of out-side backs include Tyler Cruz, Connor Williams, Colton Oord, Cameron Van Winkle, Chace Carlson and Matt Eichler. Cruz has worked hard and spelled a lot of minutes, coaches say, while Carlson is a forward who came back to fill an outside defend-er role, looking sharp in the process. Van Winkle, a junior Mount Si star football kicker, is a talent as an outside defender.

Chief goalkeeper Malberg, spelled by fellow junior Alex Anderson, is often shouting hints and comments, telling teammates where the ball is, promoting game awareness. Forwards can get caught up in the game. Defenders give them a deeper sense of the field, as part of the overall strategic

symphony that is soccer.Defense “tells me what’s

working, what’s not, where I need to go, how I need to show for the ball,” said senior forward Aldrich.

Physically, every game is different for the defender. Against stronger opponents, “we’re taking heat the whole game,” said Baumgardner.

Against weaker opponents,

their job is mostly passing the ball. Regardless, Baumgardner loves the flow and freedom of the game.

“I’ve been playing since I was a little kid,” he said. “I love how there’s no set thing you have to do, no time outs. When you’re out here, no one can tell you what to do.”

Rain, hail, sun, and wind welcomed a steady stream of customers to the opening day of the Carnation Farmers Market, Tuesday, May 1. The market is in its ninth year of operation, bringing produce and goods from local growers direct to the public. New this year is the Tolt Commons Community Shelter, a community project of the city of Carnation. The timber-frame shelter, with skylights and a cement walkway, was rec-ognized in a dedication ceremony, presided over by Carnation Mayor Jim Berger, with project sponsors USDA, Snoqualmie Tribe, and Sno-Valley Tilth all attending.More than 20 vendors were present for opening-day events, in a wide, yet balanced vari-ety. Shoppers found a selection of early-season fresh vegetables from several local farms, plant starts to begin their own gardens, fresh butter, cheese, eggs and bread, locally made wine, fresh flowers, and assorted hot food vendors. A host of booths provided books about local farms and farmers markets, face painting, volunteer opportunities, and community information.The Carnation Farmers Market is open Tuesdays, 3 to 7 p.m., through November. Music on the Grass, chalk art, and a children’s booth are regular features.

Two boys in a stump, a three-dimensional animated hippopotamus and six Avengers will make Thursday, May 10, a full day for movie-goers in North Bend.

The boys and the hippo are the stars of two student-produced films that will run at the North Bend Theater before the show-ing of the long-awaited Marvel produc-tion, “The Avengers.” There are stars in the Avengers, too, but the real reason for the evening is to showcase the work of the film-makers, all Mount Si High School students in the Wildcat Production Club.

The annual Wildcat Film Festival, as it’s called, “is our own little Snoqualmie Valley film festival,” said club advisor and video production teacher Joe Dockery.

It’s also a first opportunity for many stu-dent filmmakers to see their work on the big screen.

Xury Greer, club president and inventor of the 3-D hippo detective Hippo Crassy, a walking, talking, “stupid pun” personified, has done the festival before, and decided to try something un-Hollywood, this time.

“Every idea you can think of is going to cost a lot to film. Hollywood has millions of dollars to pump into their movies for set designs and costumes,” he said. “Indie” films can’t afford that, “so they edit in the effects after shooting,” he said.

“I’m really in filmmaking for storytelling, so if I never touch a camera, I don’t really care,” he said, which is why he’s been devel-oping skills, like animation and 3-D work that are “useful all around in any type of video production.”

He’ll showcase some of those skills in his 3-D animated short “Hippo Crassy and the Victimless Crime.”

“The whole story is just about him doing hypocritical things…. It’s pretty funny.”

Dakota Miller also decided on a comedy, after a false start more in keeping with his mysterious plot. The movie follows two boys who each wake up alone in the woods. They find a sword and pickaxe, and then they find each other.

“Originally, it was just this mysterious movie with them walking around in the woods,” Miller said. “Then we realized we aren’t mysterious people. We’re more of a funny bunch.”

It’s a silent movie, too, as much for the humor as for practical reasons.

“It was really windy that day,” Miller recalled, and the only audio equipment he had was on the camera itself, not up to the job. “The minute I decided it was a silent film, I just started shooting,” he said.

Miller also makes an appearance in his movie, but his friends Christopher Hodel and Landon Storud did most of the acting.

Greer also got help from Hodel, who did the music for his film. With that exception, everything else was Greer’s creation.

“I wrote the script, modeled the char-acters, created the textures, did the voice acting… I wanted all of it to be original,” he said.

Greer also worked with a team on another original effort that will be part of Thursday’s festival. Film-making, according to Dockery, is definitely a cooperative effort.

This particular film, he says, “is kind of neat. It’s from… last weekend (April 28 and 29) when we competed in the National Film Festival for Talented Youth…. On Thursday, they give you a line of dialogue, a prop, and a theme, and the kids have 48 hours to film.”

Dockery said the festival has some-thing that will appeal to almost everyone. “There’s an action film, a comedy, sports…” Dockery said. “It’s also a fundraiser, though. Admission is $10, and that gets you into the Avengers, which is a hot new film, and for each $10, the club will receive $5.”

The club uses funds to buy new video equipment, or for school trips, such as their visit to New York over spring break.

The Wildcat Film Festival starts at 5 p.m. with student films. The feature film “The Avengers” begins at 6 p.m.

We have a Truck To renT for LocaL Moves

Call about our Move-in Special

Smilla likes women bet-ter than men, so Miriam fed Smilla some sedative pills hidden in liverwurst. The dog settled down for a nap, but never fell into a deep sleep.

“Several times, she woke up just as I was sneaking up on her with a net,” Branson said. “The three of us followed her around the golf course for about four hours as she found new places to nap and we tried to sneak up on her.”

Branson rushed the last 10 feet, throwing a net over her as she was getting up to run.

“Nothing went exactly as planned, but it worked,” Branson stated. “She was too sleepy and disoriented to run away quickly.”

Smilla was not happy about being trapped, but volunteers were elated.

“We are all very pleased that she will no longer be at risk of being struck by a car,” Branson said.

Once dogs are on the run, afraid of strangers, they start learning to distrust all humans.

“It’s common for dogs to get in this state of mind when they’re on the run,” Branson said.

“Now that she’s back with people, she’s perfectly fine. She’s friendly, she wants to be with people. She’s accepting food.”

The dog was suffering from a giardia infection when she was found, but is otherwise healthy. And for a dog on the run for seven weeks, that’s surprising.

“She didn’t really lose much weight,” Branson said. “That’s because everybody was feed-ing her, trying to catch her, giving her treats, bowls of kibble. She ate pretty well.”

Smilla’s behavior made the big difference in her getting back to safety.

Branson says many lost dogs wind up in remote plac-es. Smilla, in contrast, pre-ferred to take a nap in the afternoon in a sunny, grassy place.

“She chose places that 360 degrees of escape. This made her very visible,” Branson said. “So a lot of people saw her. This allowed us to keep track of her.”

Volunteers, some from as far away from Ocean Shores, have invested hundreds of hours trying to capture Smilla, as have locals at the campground, cemetery, golf course.

More than a thousand called with sightings follow-ing a report by this newspa-per.

“We received 2,000 calls from people who had seen the story,” Branson said.

Smilla is now being board-ed by a friend of Carl Jesltrup of Fall City, a local acquain-tance of her owner, sled dog racer Silvia Furtwangler of Norway.

Should Furtwangler choose not to be reunited with the dog, Branson said there are several people who have volunteered to adopt the dog.

Branson hopes everything works out for Smilla.

“She is a high risk for escaping again,” he said.

The most important thing now, Branson said, is for Smilla’s handlers to make sure she’s wearing an escape-proof collar.

Branson is amazed by how far the dog roamed—and how she always found her way back to Fall City.

The dog ran all the way to Renton, and “ended up back in the same place,” he said.

“She was building a mental map of the area,” Branson added. Lost dogs often cir-cle and check out their sur-roundings, learning where water and food sources can be found.

“This is the first time we’ve had a case that a dog ran so far away from the point of escape and then all the way back.”

Change day looked at teen leadership

Local valley teens came together on Saturday, March 14, at Twin Falls Middle School in North Bend for “Be the Change,” an annual leadership conference spon-sored by the Snoqualmie Valley Community Network in partnership with the Riverview and Sno-Valley Youth Councils.

Students heard from facili-tator, Nigel Wrangham, took part in role-playing leadership activities, and, in breakout sessions, heard from other youth leaders and commu-nity members on topics such as Internet safety, “The Media and You, prescription drug abuse, reaching out for help, respect and diversity, stress management, suicide pre-vention, and “You and Your Brain.”

Wrangham has been a leader and innovator in the teaching, training and sub-stance abuse prevention fields since 1990. He is known for his dynamic, interactive style and for incorporating team-building activities into his leadership training events. He encouraged teens at the con-

ference to share their biggest challenges and their biggest dreams.

Students openly discussed the challenges in their lives, such as not being accepted, feeling judged, peer pressure, bullying issues, pollution in our communities, drugs and their influence and needing more opportunities for their voices to be heard.

Then students, one by one, shared some of their great-est dreams, including being accepted to a good college, making a positive difference, being accepted by their peers, going on a mission trip to help others, standing up for what is right and spreading awareness.

“There’s nothing more inspiring than being in a room filled with teens, such honesty, such hope, such promise,” SVCN Executive Director, Laura Smith said.

Prescription takeback in Snoqualmie

courtesy photo

Betty Morgan, right, a Snoqualmie Ridge resident, stopped by the Snoqualmie Police Department’s drug col-lection event Saturday, April 28, to safely dispose of some expired medicine. Officer Sherwood was on hand to help supervise the collection event, which gathered 63 pounds of unwanted medicines. The drugs were incinerated at a Seattle facility owned by the Drug Enforcement Agency, which sponsors the semi-annual col-lection days.

“We made several attempts to contact him, hailing him, ‘this is the police, it’s time to come out,’” Toner said. When that didn’t work, “We introduced some dif-ferent gasses into the bunker, CS gas, tear gas, that kind of thing.”

Later, Toner said, they thought they might have heard a muffled voice, as if Keller were speaking through a gas mask. By 8 p.m., a few team members had settled in for a long night of waiting.

“Based on the pictures we had, we knew this was a fortified bunker. Picture a log cabin built inside a hole,” Toner said.

Because there had been booby traps set at the home, officers were also cautious about traps at the bunker. They used robotic cameras to look inside the door and when there was no movement, determined to enter it. The next day, demolitions officers cautiously set charges to blow the roof off, and saw a pool of blood on the floor. Once inside, they found Keller, dead, lying next to the handgun he apparently used to kill himself.

Toner commended every-one involved in the operation, from the citizens who phoned in sightings or suggestions for flushing Keller out of the bun-ker, to the many law enforce-ment agencies involved, such as the Department of Homeland Security, which “loaned us some pretty cool equipment,” he said.

“It was a huge combination effort,” Toner added.

He noted that luck played a large part in the search.

The luck began with a neigh-bor’s quick action in reporting the fire, at 8:43 a.m. Deputies from the North Bend substa-tion were dispatched, along with Eastside Fire & Rescue, and were on-site within eight minutes, fast enough to stop the deliberately-set fire from destroying all the evidence in the home.

The fire had spread to the attic, causing it to flare up sev-eral times in the next day and a half, Toner said. Firefighters bal-anced the need for controlling the flames with investigators’ need to preserve evidence in the home, that might otherwise have been destroyed. Toner said they began to suspect foul play when firefighters recovered the bodies of Lynnettee and Kaylene Keller, and found several booby traps in the home.

Evidence teams were assem-bled, one for the house, one to investigate the family, and one to process all the evidence, Toner said. Before the end of the day, there were 26 officers at the home, including arson investi-gators and a bomb squad.

A recovered laptop computer was the next bit of luck. Its hard drive contained photos of the bunker Keller had apparently been building for eight years, and photos that enabled police to close in on the location of the bunker.

“Our belief is that the comput-er was supposed to be destroyed in the fire,” Toner said.

Instead, it went to a computer forensics specialist with the King County Sheriff’s Office, who found the photos and with her computer skills, enhanced them enough to identify the North Bend outlet mall in the distance. She was also able to calculate the angles of several pillars in the image, to determine the van-tage point of the photographer, on Rattlesnake Ridge. Power lines visible in the distance also helped.

Keller had taken a series of photos for a panoramic view, from exactly the right spot, as far as Toner was concerned.

“If you stood at the front door of the bunker and took those shots, you wouldn’t have seen the mall. If you were inside the bunker and took those shots out, to see what my view was, you wouldn’t have seen the mall… around this entire bun-ker, I found one location where you could stand and get that shot,” he said.

By Thursday, “we are pretty confident that we have the loca-tion,” Toner said. However, the Sheriff’s Office kept helicop-ters searching, and continued reporting that they were search-ing various areas, to prevent Keller from finding out what they knew.

At the same time, deputies were also searching for reports on the license plate of Keller’s red pickup truck, which several citizens had reported seeing at various trailheads. Police officers had, too.

“Officers, both Snoqualmie and our own, had run that plate in several locations,” Toner said, and “the David-1 car on Thursday, four days before the event, had run the license plate while it was sitting up at the Snoqualmie Point trailhead. It

turns out that’s the majority of locations where he had been.”

Friday morning, Seattle and KCSO SWAT teams assembled early to find the bunker, which was a half-hour of “extremely difficult walking” from the near-est parking spot, Toner said.

Having visited the site several times in the last few days, Toner said it was still difficult to find when he went there Tuesday to see the demolition. “Knowing where it was, and following the trail of hundreds of cops going in and out, I can’t imagine how they located it,” he said.

Now that it’s been found and demolished—DNR crews col-lapse it last week, and all planting restoration work is expected to be done by now—“The major-ity of the work from here on out is going to be figuring out why he did what he did,” Toner said.
