While the director and camera crew set up a scene, Edward Furlong brushed back his hair and gazed upward at the striking stained-glass windows inside the Bastyr Univer-sity chapel in Kenmore.

� e actor may have been on hand to � lm scenes for Seattle-based Mirror Images’ “Matt’s Chance” on March 22, but the 34-year-old star of “Terminator 2” and “American History X” in the 1990s was � xated on the 54-year-old European-style building’s o� erings for a few min-utes before shooting resumed.

“Quiet on the set” and “cue, dolly,” director Nicholas Gyeney said for the umpteenth time that day as the 30-person crew hushed and one of them gently pushed the cameraman — set on the wheeled contraption — toward Furlong and co-star Edi Zanidache on the altar. Furlong, who plays cowboy Matt, consulted with Zanidache, a priest, about what to do a� er he discovers his girlfriend is a cheater.

� ey ran through their lines as the camera rolled. A� er a few tries at the altar scene, they nailed it. And the silence that once ruled over the

chapel was blanketed with a round of applause from the crew. Success.

“� ey’ve hit it spot on every time, which is incredible. I mean, their lines are just perfect and (we) can’t ask for a better eight minutes than what they gave us,” said producer Nate Riley about the two actors. (Furlong also � lmed a bank-robbery scene with Seattle Seahawk Mar-shawn Lynch in Bothell recently.)

Samantha Jones, the producer’s assistant, intern manager and marketer for the � lm, said that Day 3 of the � lm’s 15 days of shooting in Seattle was going well as the hours rolled on during the one day of shooting at Bastyr.

“It’s an independent � lm — gotta get in, get out,” she said of the two-week schedule, which featured Lee

Majors, Margot Kidder and Gary Busey acting at Seattle spots like the Acme Barber Shop, Dante’s bar and more.

� e Bastyr scenes provided an interesting exchange of ideas be-tween cowboy and priest, Jones said.

People run, walk strong at Northshore

Can-Do eventBY ANDY NYSTROM

[email protected]

As the rain splashed down on the runners during the � nal race of the day, Susanna Smith gave it her all from start to � nish. Sporting a multi-colored raincoat, she pumped her arms and legs to the hilt and closed out last Saturday’s Can-Do kids’ dashes with a smile that received a cheer from the crowd.

Her dad, Eric, noted that his special-needs girl also participated in the 1-mile walk at the fourth annual Northwest Special Fami-lies (NSF) and Northshore YMCA event that took place at the Seattle Times building in Bothell. Also on tap were a 5K run/walk, a 10K run and a 1K youth run.

“We’re so proud of Su-sanna, because she ‘can do’ it — she gets up every day and does a great job with all the things that she has to do,” said Eric of Edmonds.

“It was good,” said Su-sanna, 9, who was joined at the event by her sister, Chloe, 12, who tackled the 5K and kids’ dash, as well.

NSF’s Natalia Bynum estimated that more than 1,000 people participated in the event (1,442 registered), which raises funds for NSF’s programs for the Center

for Human Services and the Northshore Y’s annual campaign, Partners with Youth, and to create inclusive and adaptive programming there. Bynum said they are on target to raise more than $22,000.

“It was great to see everybody coming out in the rain. Watching people coming across the � nish line, it’s really a community event celebrating what we all can do,” Bynum said.

Over at the Northshore Wranglers booth, Judy Grat-ton said the people with the nonpro� t special recreation and services program backed all the runners and walk-ers during the event, which featured people with and without disabilities.

“It’s gone very well — I am so proud of them,” Gratton said. “As the mother of some-one with disabilities, I know how hard it is just to do day to day (tasks). So especially to bring those individuals out on a freezing-cold raining day and get them to walk or run this sort of thing is really a miracle.”

Added Glennona Hoover of Woodinville, who cut tags o� runners’ shoes as they concluded the 5K: “It’s just thrilling to see all that they do in order to support each other — it’s wonderful.”

Special to the Reporter

� e Associated Student Body leadership for Ing-lemoor, Bothell, Woodinville and Secondary Academy for Success (SAS) schools received a unique oppor-tunity on March 27 when they attended a Northshore school-board forum at the district o� ces in Bothell.

During the forum, students discussed the district’s policies as it relates to four-year high schools; harassment, intimidation and bullying; technology; community service and the rigor and relevance of school curricula.

“� e school board wants to hear from kids,” Super-intendent Larry Francois said. “� ey hear a lot from adults. � ey hear a lot from administrators. � ey hear a lot from teachers… and the one group they don’t o� en hear a lot from is students, and really, that’s why we have the school system — it’s to serve students.”

� e � rst of its kind, the

forum was intended to form a bond with the school board and the students.

“� ere’s lots of decisions that get made at the district,” board member Todd Banks said. “Its nice to touch base with the kids to � nd out how decisions are a� ecting them and if we’re achieving what we want to achieve.”

First on the day’s agenda was the four-year high school. � e Northshore School District is one of three districts in the state that still maintains a three-year high school. In light of this, the school board is now listening to discussions on whether Northshore should adopt the four-year model.

“Ninth-graders in the high school would be a little bit better prepared and more in-formed about such topics as post-secondary careers and colleges,” Woodinville junior Matt Spencer said.

� e rest of the panel agreed with Spencer’s sentiments.

By adopting the four-year model, “we can have every-one on the same equal level

of togetherness because we’re a community and we need to act that way,” SAS freshman and leadership council mem-ber Kobi Robinson said.

“It’s a � nancial and a logistical issue more than a philosophical issue,” board member Sandy Hayes said. “We have two high schools that do not have space for 500 more kids. We cannot move a whole grade level into Bothell or Inglemoor.”

However, putting an end to harassment, intimidation and bullying is well within the districts � nancial and logisti-cal parameters.

“We go into classrooms and talk to students,” Inglemoor senior and ASB assistant coordinator Ellie Swanson said. “It’s a lot more e� ective to spread a message student to student versus administration to student. Students can relate, and it seems more personal.”

Austin Wright-Pettibone is an Inglemoor High senior.

Redmond Reporter

Wheaties may be the breakfast of champions, but the breakfast of heroes was in the spotlight on March 27 at Seattle’s Wash-ington State Convention Center as the American Red Cross recognized King County individuals who have gone above and beyond the duties of the everyday citizen.

Stephanie Schoo, regional communications director for Red Cross, said people were honored for a number of different things, but their actions all personified the Red Cross’ mission: neighbors helping neighbors when they need it most.

“Some are pretty dramatic and literally life saving and some are work-ing day in, day out to help make our community a safer, stronger place,” she said about the acts and individuals who were hon-ored at the 16th Annual Heroes Breakfast. “They’re doing it selflessly. They’re not doing it for themselves.

They’re doing it to help other people.”

At the event — which was also a fund-raiser for the Red Cross — Redmond Fire Department (RFD) assistant fire marshal Todd Short of Kenmore received the Medical Rescue Award.

OFF-DUTY CALLShort was at the Great

Harvest Bread Company in Redmond when a man on a cell phone entered the bakery demanding the address. Short said the other man was aggressive

and something about the situation didn’t “settle well” with him. So Short looked out to the parking lot and saw the man on the phone and a woman standing outside of a car with an open driver-side door. Inside was a man slumped over the steering wheel.

Short rushed outside and immediately began assisting the unconscious man, who was Don Trombly of Issaquah. The woman was his wife, Dixie Trombly. Once Short and the other man, who had

been on the phone with a 911 dispatcher, got Don out of the car, Short began chest compressions. With-in a minute, Don began regaining consciousness, which was a great sign as it usually takes longer, Short said.

Although Short now works on the fire preven-tion side of the RFD, he began as a firefighter and has maintained his medical training, which he said just kicked in while assisting Don. Within minutes, an ambulance arrived and Don was taken to the hos-pital, where he underwent triple bypass surgery.

Before the breakfast, Short had spoken with the Tromblys on the phone and met them once before while shooting a video for the event. He said before meeting the couple, he didn’t feel he deserved the title of “hero.” It was just a case of being in the right place at the right time that Friday morning, which was pure chance as Short usu-ally doesn’t work Fridays. He said he was in Red-mond because he went into

work briefly for a meeting and had been off duty when he assisted Don.

Short said this feeling of outside factors control-ling the situation was a common sentiment among the other honorees at the breakfast.

“We didn’t do anything that anyone else would’ve done,” Short said.

However, once he met the Tromblys and saw how his actions had impacted the couple, Short began to understand things from their perspective. During his speech at the breakfast, he said the reward and satisfaction he has expe-rienced “runs deep and is lasting.”

A WORTHY CAUSEShort said after attend-

ing the breakfast he was impressed by the Red Cross and all the organiza-tion does. One thing he pointed out was how 91 cents of every dollar do-nated goes to people who need it — the remaining 9 cents goes toward admin-istration and overhead,

which he said is com-mendable for such a large organization.

Schoo said one of main services the Red Cross of-fers is local disaster relief. These disasters are usually house fires and she said while donations have re-mained at about the same level, the level of support people need has increased due to the down economy.

The money from the breakfast, which usually brings in about 800 people, goes toward general Red Cross programs and services, which in addition to disaster relief, include first aid, CPR and lifeguard training. This year’s break-fast brought in $397,000.

Schoo said her favorite thing about the event is listening to all the inspi-rational stories, which remind her that there are good people out there, despite how negative the news can be.

“It’s all a good cause,” she said about the Red Cross’ different events. “But this is the one event I leave where I feel good.”

In last November’s election, Bothell annexation failed by the count of 3,767 “no” votes to 3,359 “yes” votes.

In the April 17 special election, citizens of the North, East and West of Bothell Annexation (NEWBA) area will vote again on whether they want to become Bothell residents or stay residents of unin-corporated Snohomish County.

For this issue of the Reporter, we decided to let those in the trenches speak out about Bothell’s proposed annexation.

On one side you’ve got Patrick LeDoux of Bothell YES, and on the opposite end, there’s Bud NcCorchuk of Citizens for Responsible Annexations.

Both men are passionate about their stances on annexation and have been vocal over the last month in the media and in person to whoever wants to discuss the issues at hand.

You can read their columns below, and hopefully readers can gain some more insight into the annexa-tion issue and tally their vote on April 17.

In recent annexation news — this is fact, not the Reporter taking sides as has been written on some chat boards — most of you know that the city has commit-ted to keep Fire Station 22 open for at least � ve years and sta� ed with � re� ghters and paramedics. Bothell has also executed agreements with Snohomish County � re districts 7 and 10 for continued high-quality service in the annexation area.

Also, according to the city, since April 2010, it has broken ground on $89 million in fully-funded down-town projects; property taxes have not been raised in Bothell for more than six years; and annexation-area

residents would not assume any of the city’s bonded indebtedness.

On the state of Washington’s side, Larry Springer, Deputy Majority Leader and State Representative, 45th Legislative District, notes that “Since the passage of the Growth Management Act 30 years ago, the state has encouraged annexations or incorporations of urban areas outside of city boundaries. � ese unincorporated urban areas deserve urban levels of service, which are best provided by cities rather than counties.”

Whether you vote “yes” or “no” on April 17, make your voice heard in this election.

BY PATRICK LEDOUX

Bothell YES

I born and raised in the city of Bothell. When I moved to the North, East and West of Bothell Annexation (NEWBA) area 11 years ago and still had a Bothell address, I didn’t think there would be a difference in my new community.

Today, I can first hand tell the differ-ence in the two communities and that is why I have joined over 1,000 of my neighbors in committing myself to the citizens of the NEWBA area to bring us into the greater Bothell community that I grew up in for all of the right reasons.

We want to be part of Bothell for its lower taxes and higher quality of ser-vices. We want to keep our tax dollars local and not spread them throughout the county. We understand that every dollar counts in this difficult economy, and lower taxes and better services are exactly what we need. We want to be part of something great and part of the Bothell community.

Our core benefits of annexation are the following:

• Local government — We can vote for all seven city councilmembers in Bothell. We can only vote for one county councilmember in Snohomish County.

• Lower property taxes — The Sno-

homish County Assessor confirmed that annexation to Bothell is a property tax cut for every homeowner in the NEWBA. More importantly, the money stays here instead of going to a much bigger area.

• Better services — There will be more police officers patrolling our neighborhood, and a local and more responsive public works and parks departments.

• Fire service — Bothell has reached agreements with fire districts 7 and 10 and will staff both fire stations 24/7 in the NEWBA area providing para-medics and additional services by the internationally acclaimed Medic One Services.

• Fiscally sound and responsive gov-ernment — Bothell has lower property taxes and a better credit rating than the taxing districts that currently take our money.

I wanted this opportunity to set the record straight on the matters that are vitally important for the quality of life of our neighborhoods and families.

I understand more than ever the importance of lower taxes and services that are faster and of higher quality that will be provided by the city of Bothell.

Please help us achieve this vision for a greater and better Bothell community. Vote Yes!

Citizens for Responsible Annexations

� is annexation is about more than just the � re service. It is all about the money — isn’t every-thing? Follow the money and it will all make sense.

Look at the tax situation: Bothell says that the di� erence is $288 dollars, but do they mention the 25 cents to a thousand � re tax? It is conveniently missing from their data. � e numbers just don’t match up. Bothell will have private in-dustry build and own the new $40 million city hall and then Bothell will lease it back for $2 million a year.

� e � rst quarter is over, where is the city’s � nancial report for the fourth quarter of last year? Yes, again it is conveniently missing because the third quarter of last year showed that Bothell’s out� ow of expenses outpaced the in� ow or revenue by over a million dollars.

We do not think it is wise to increase the population by 45 percent overnight and have this kind of a � nancial picture. A $150 million downtown revitalization plan, new $5 million King County � re station, $10 million Bothell

Landing project, $40 million city hall with 300 underground parking stalls, and purchase of the school property for $20 million and then basically gi� ing it to the McMe-namin family. Can you see the picture? Who else in the state is this ambitious in this economy? Nobody!

As for � re stations closing? Fire District 1 has been committed to Station 22 for 42 years and has had paramedic services for over 30 years. Why change something that is state of the art? In fact, Fire Dis-trict 1 just completed their Utstein cardiac survival rate study. It shows that a survival rate of 62.5 percent while other local studies show a 48.5 percent survival rate. � e best place to have a heart attack is in Fire District 1.

In last November’s election, 3,767 citizens said NO and Bothell continues to disregard the very people they are trying to reach. Bothell’s mayor recently said, “� ey will not take Yes for an answer.” My very point — that’s good local representation for you. � e only local control you Yes folks have will be from the mayor a� er you wake up and get out from under his thumb.

We’re fortunate to have professionals educating our children

Bob Terry’s treatise on education and the accompanied aspersions in the Reporter’s March 16 opinion column gave me reason to respond.

During my 16 years of service on the Northshore school board, we realigned and cut more than $20 million from our budget. Part of this was due to bringing our district up to the new standards, increased costs in all areas and reduced funding from the state. In making those cuts, there were very few areas that remained untouched, every one of our unions and schools were af-fected. I can vouch that cutting people and programs does not make one particularly popular. So when I chose to again run for the school board, I was both surprised and honored to be endorsed by those who work so hard on our children’s behalf.

Mr. Terry is correct, I did register with the PDC (Public Disclosure Com-mission) that I would spend $10,000 on my campaign, as did my opponent. That amount barely covers printing and postage for one brochure.

While I cannot vouch for excellence in every district across our country, I can in Northshore. We are fortunate to have students ready to learn, involved parents and teachers who are commit-ted and care. This is what ultimately leads to success.

While much of Mr. Terry’s com-ments are time-worn arguments, I completely agree with his statement that “caring and committed, superior teachers make the difference.” How fortunate we are in Northshore to have just such professionals educating our children.B-Z Davis, Bothell

Gloria Fletcher has been named president of Sound Publishing, home to the Bothell-Kenmore Reporter.

Fletcher comes to Sound from Gatehouse Media, where she was regional vice presi-dent responsible for 85 publications spread over 13 states based in Joplin, Mo. Prior to Gatehouse, she was division vice president for Community Newspaper Holdings from 2000 to 2007, responsible for their Oklahoma group. She also worked for American Publish-

ing Company from 1988 to 1999, after beginning her career

working for a small daily in Woodward, Okla., in 1985.

She is an honors grad-uate of the University of Oklahoma and serves on the board of direc-tors of the Local Media Association (formerly Suburban Newspapers

of America). Fletcher is married with two sons, ages 14 and 17, and she and her family are ex-cited about the move to Seattle and the Pacific Northwest.

She will take up her new position in April and will be relocating her family over the

summer. “I’m honored to join Sound

Publishing and Black Press,” Fletcher said. “I’m anxious to be on-site to learn about the area, the plethora of print and digital news products and really get to know the many talented people who produce them. My family and I are very excited to get there.”

Fletcher’s appointment was announced March 26 by Rick O’Connor, chief operating of-ficer of Black Press of Victoria, B.C., Sound Publishing’s parent company, and company owner David Black.

“David and I are excited about the quality of leadership

that Gloria brings to her new position and we hope to build on the new acquisitions we an-nounced in the fall of last year,” O’Connor said.

O’Connor thanked both Josh O’Connor and Lori Maxim, vice presidents of Sound Publish-ing, for their leadership and guidance of Sound over the past two years. He also thanked executives Mark Warner and Don Kendall for their work in bringing both the Port Angeles and Sequim newspapers into the Sound group over the past few months.

Bothell’s downtown revitalization on target

Leading the largest municipal downtown project in the state, the city of Bothell

will soon hit upon the two-year anniversary of the official April 2010

groundbreaking and is reporting that it’s on target for reaching the $650 million

private investment goal.Based on projections from private

developers and Building Code Council valuations for square foot, the city

anticipates that by the close of this year both projects under way and projects

proposed combined will total an estimated $207 million dollars of private

investment in the downtown planning area.

“After collecting information from committed developers, we are

anticipating new development in the pipeline to total around $207 million,” said Bob Stowe, Bothell city manager. “That is one-third of our $650 million,

25-year private-investment goal for the downtown subarea.”

Bothell Police equiP Patrol officers with aeds

The Bothell Police Department has equipped and trained all patrol officers with automated external defibrillators

(AEDs), enhancing their ability to provide assistance during cardiac emergencies.

AEDs are not new for Bothell police officers; however, citizen donations have

made it possible to put an AED in every police car out on patrol in the city.

for Skyview Junior High’s Outdoor Environmental Learning Center and

has helped refine and support many sustainability projects, including the

school’s water resource and conservation curriculum and its forest and soil units.

He also institutionalized the school-wide food scrap collection program and acquired funding and materials to raise

Coho salmon in the classroom. • To reduce Canyon Creek Elementary’s

ecological footprint, sixth-grade students created projects to support

the waste reduction and the classroom and lunchroom recycling programs they

had helped institute. They developed presentations, posters and videos to

Dog-day afternoon

Aside from a throng of Northshore participants, Zoe Allen came to town from Kent to run the 5K with her husband and cheer him on along with all the others involved.

“It’s for such a great cause, and it’s really fun seeing the kids run and just be active and show families that you can be active together,” she said.

Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb was on hand to start the event and Rep. Derek Stanford of Bothell showed up later to dole out awards to the 5K and 10K run win-ners.

Lindsay Trieb and her workmates from Trader Joe’s in Totem Lake got involved by handing out bananas and other fruit to runners as they crossed the finish line.

“It’s really inspiring. I work with a couple of young ladies who are handicapped, and it’s honestly inspiring to see people get through something like that. And to be able to come out here and support is a really big deal for us,” she said.

“It’s great to watch them be so excited about just finishing a mile. I’ve really enjoyed it.”

Although she couldn’t attend the event, Gabri-elle Kruegar, a 6-year-old with a severe seizure disorder, was there in spirit via her friends, the Gersons, Meghann and her daughter, Lily.

Wearing signs on their backs that said, “I’m walking for my friend Gabby,” they were proud to be at the Can-Do

while Gabby was in Children’s Hospital.

“We decided to walk today because she can’t walk herself and her mom can’t be here to walk for her,” Meghann said.

“It’s very emotional, to be totally honest,” she continued, noting that the rain was tough on Lily. “I kept reminding her that if Gabby could walk here, she would today.”

In Loving Memory ofDorothy Schmidt

Dorothy Schmidt, born October 31, 1917, passed away March 25, 2012.

Dorothy was an avid gardener and loved to cashier for the Bothell Garden Club Plant Sales, where proceeds were donated to the Bothell Senior Center. Originally from Patoka, Illinois, she graduated from Sandoval High School in 1934 and went on to get her beauty license. Three years later she started her own business, Dorothy’s Hairstyling. She married Paul Schmidt, October 2, 1940 and in 1956 when Paul’s work brought him to Seattle, she drove across country with five kids to reunite the family. Not long after, she again opened her own salon, Dorothy’s Hairstyling overlooking the Kenmore Air Harbor. Two more children were born in Seattle.

Dorothy retired in 1982 and was active in both the Lake Forest Park Garden Club and the Bothell Garden Club. Her garden was a sanctuary enjoyed by family, and friends.

She is survived by all of her children and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be in our hearts forever.

Memorials can be made in her name to Habitat for Humanity, Special Olympics, or National MS Society. Contact address: 24318 7th Ave. SE, Bothell, WA 98021. Please sign the online guestbook at

“(Furlong is) coming to see his priest buddy, who’s like a rappin’ wannabe gangster priest, and fills him in on what’s going on, and they talk about getting revenge,” she said. “Edi — Daddy Dave is his character — is telling him,

‘Well, she needs to go down, we need to get her back,’ and he pours him a shot in the chapel.”

The secular Bastyr chapel, which also features hand-carved oak paneling, dark oak pews, marble columns, terrazzo floors and glass mosaic artwork, was part of

the original seminary grounds and attracted the Mirror Images crew when they were scouting locations for another film. Riley remembered the chapel when “Matt’s Chance” came around and contacted the university.

“(They) wanted to read the script first, though, which

was a little bit tough because there’s a lot of swearing in there. We got in, though, nonetheless — we’re here,” Riley said. “We’re going with a neo-noir-type of feel and look, so very vibrant colors, deep dark shadows, so it really fits with the different color schemes that are out here in the chapel.”

Jones said it’s one of the bigger sets Mirror Images has worked on, and it’s a bonus that the chapel is easy on the eyes.

“You’d think that people are glued on the actors, but you can see everyone just kind of … their eyes are wandering all over the walls, it’s really gorgeous,” she said. “I came in here before we started shoot-ing and I was just snapping pictures everywhere.”

Mirror Images plans to re-lease “Matt’s Chance” in 2013.

The chapel’s ideal acoustics have also drawn the atten-tion of Hollywood recording engineers. The orchestral soundtrack to “Mirror, Mir-

ror,” which stars Julia Roberts and hit theaters March 30, was recorded there, along with scores for the films “Mr. Holland’s Opus” and “Die Hard 3” and video games like “Warcraft” and “Zelda,” according to Pam Vaughn, Bastyr’s director of conference services.

“It’s fun having that going on at the university,” said Vaughn, who added that recently a classical pianist re-corded there, along with local choral groups. “It’s exciting.”

Staff RepoRt

A 24-year-old Bothell woman was alone in her house at the 600 block of 219th Place Southwest at about 9 a.m. on March 19 when she awoke to the sound of someone breaking into the home.

Terrified, the woman attempted to hide in the bedroom closet when she saw a white male adult wearing a hoodie enter her bedroom, according to Bothell Police Department Sgt. Elmer Brown in a press release. The intruder fled from the house when he saw the woman, who then called 911. She

was not harmed during the incident.

During the subsequent investigation, Bothell police developed probable cause to arrest a 27-year-old Bothell man, who was located and ar-rested in the city of Edmonds on March 28, Brown said. The suspect provided Bothell officers with information that led them to an Edmonds motel located in the 23900 block of Highway 99, where officers arrested a 28-year-old Mountlake Terrace woman along with two adult indi-viduals for unrelated drug crime violations.

Bothell detectives respond-

ed to the motel after officers discovered evidence of stolen property within the motel room. Detectives conducted a search of the motel room un-der the authority of a search warrant and recovered a large quantity of suspected stolen property. Detectives now be-lieve these items were stolen by a larger group of suspects during several burglaries, car break-ins and mail thefts throughout the region.

Bothell detectives are pro-cessing and sorting through the property in order to iden-tify and notify the multiple victims, as well as identify additional suspects.

Working in the com-munity newspaper industry for nearly four years, I’ve always been one to embrace change.

While my duties as a sports writer for the Both-ell-Kenmore and Redmond Reporter newspapers have changed slightly over the years, one thing has never changed: My commitment to covering the local high-

school sports scene to the best of my ability.

I’ve always felt that our sports section was one of our strong suits and it was a very tough decision to leave such a wonderful commu-nity to take on a new career opportunity outside of jour-nalism, effective April 6.

Going forward, the sports duties will be covered by our fearless editor, Andy Nystrom, who has a strong sports background — as well as selected contribu-tors and interns from the high schools themselves. I have no doubt that they will combine their efforts to de-liver the same solid sports coverage you have seen for

the last four years.Looking back on my time

here, it’s been filled with great memories that will stick with me forever.

• Covering the Both-ell High’s first-ever state baseball championship last spring at Cheney Stadium in Tacoma, seeing the pure elation of the boys and longtime head coach Paul Moody after history was made.

• Watching some of the state’s finest athletes grow, mature and achieve great things: Bothell’s Zach LaVine (basketball), Mi-chael Hartvigson and Colin Porter (football) and Brian McAfee (baseball), as well

as Inglemoor’s Taylor Pea-cocke (basketball, fastpitch) and Cedar Park Christian’s Rachael Staudacher (bas-ketball), names that we will almost certainly hear about at the college or maybe even professional level years down the road.

The memories weren’t just reserved for the court, field or pool, either.

My story “The Ultimate Fighter” on current Cedar Park Christian School girls’ basketball coach Alan Dickson — and his long battle with prostate cancer — won a first-place award for sports feature writing.

This job has allowed me the opportunity to meet

some of the sports world’s biggest personalities, from former WNBA superstar Sheryl Swoopes to Olympic silver medalist in gym-nastics Jonathan Horton, as they both visited the local community to inspire youths.

But perhaps most impor-tantly, I really cherished the connections I made and the relationships I developed with local coaches, athletic directors and others in the prep sports community.

While it was a challenge at first, over time I fostered those relationships and got to know a lot of the Bothell and Inglemoor head coach-es on a first-name basis.

I’ll miss the intensity of guys like Tom Bainter and Frank Naish on the football field and Ron Bollinger and Greg Lowell on the basket-ball court as they fired up their squads in the fourth quarter of tight Kingco games.

Now that I’m leaving the Reporter (but not the area), I can say without fear of journalistic repercus-sions that I will forever be a Cougar, Viking and Eagle fan for life.

Thank you everyone for your readership and sup-port, and may the upcom-ing years bring many more wins and positive influences on our kids through sports.

This year’s “Light a Fire for Learning Luncheon” to celebrate education and North-shore students will feature keynote speaker Dr. Bonnie J. Dunbar, retired NASA as-tronaut and Washington state native. The ninth annual event will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. April 26 at the Lyn-nwood Convention Center.

The luncheon will welcome 500 guests, with proceeds benefitting all students in the Northshore School District. The goal of the luncheon is to raise more than $100,000 that will further the foundation’s continued funding initiatives, which include supporting teacher excellence; STEM (sci-ence, technology, engineering and math) education; support for advanced and disadvan-taged learners; fitness, health,

music and enhancement; and literacy support in all 31 Northshore schools.

Since 1985, Dr. Dunbar has served in five space flights, logging in more that 1,208 hours in space. Dr. Dunbar now serves as director of Higher Education & STEM and leads education policy and strategy, integration of colleges and universities into Boeing’s school portfolio and strategic development and alignment of the company’s initiatives.

The luncheon will also feature Northshore student presentations and entertain-ment. The Lynnwood Conven-tion Center is located at 3711 196th St. S.W. To register for the luncheon online, visit www.NorthshoreSchoolsFounda-tion.org or facebook.com/northshoreschoolsfoundation.

Congratulations. You just found out you’re pregnant. Nine months from now, you and your husband will be parents for the � rst time. While you would love to stay at home with your child, you don’t think that’s going to be � nancially feasi-ble, so you’re going to have to � nd a day care provider. Where do you start?

First, you need to know what day care options are available. � ere are four basic types:

• One-on-one day care. In this setting, one person, o� en a relative or nanny,

Choose the right day-care

provider

[ more CARE page 13 ]

cares for a child or group of siblings.

• Family day care. In this setting, one person, oft en a friend, neighbor or relative, cares for a small group of children in their home.

• Group day-care centers. In this setting, several li-censed professionals care for a large number of children, oft en providing hands-on learning activities.

• Cooperatives. In this setting, several sets of parents get together and take turns watching each other’s children or they go in together and hire someone to watch over their children as a group.

Once you’ve decided on a type of day care for your child, you should start looking for a provider. Ask friends and family for recommendations. Schedule a meeting with the provid-ers you fi nd and ask the following:

• How long has the provider been caring for children?

• How many children do they care for?

• Is the provider licensed? Are they trained in fi rst aid and C.P.R.?

• How much does the pro-vider charge per week? How do they handle holidays? Do they charge extra if you are running late?

• How does the provider handle discipline problems?

• What kind of activi-ties do they provide for the children they care for?

Th ese are just some of the questions you should ask potential providers. As a concerned parent, you will probably have more. Write down your questions and don’t hesitate to give your list

to the provider. You should also take a tour of the home or facility where the provider works and make sure it’s safe and clean. In addition, you should arrange a time when you can bring along your

child and see how well the provider interacts with them.

Choosing a day-care provider isn’t easy, especially for fi rst-time parents. With some work, you can fi nd the right one for you. Good luck!

BY KAREN HERGERT

Summer camp is an op-portunity for your child to enjoy time with friends and gain new experiences. And there are so many choices. Some basic questions to consider include your child’s temperament, their age, individual interests, safety and location.

Children ages 3 to 6 tend to thrive in programs that provide routine in one location versus con-stantly changing venues. A program off ered at one location with enough visits for your child to become

comfortable, allows your child to enjoy their experi-ence versus constantly readjusting to new places and faces. A good program should include a variety of structured and free play opportunities. For this age group, the social and emotional skills so recently acquired can continue to be enhanced with guidance from experienced teachers. A good program includes plenty of outdoor play, art, music, group activities and age-appropriate games.

Younger children need an environment that provides a heightened degree of

safety and sanitary practices since they are still learning self help skills. Programs featuring secure play-grounds, qualifi ed supervi-sion, and well designed, clean classrooms are better suited for the younger set.

Grade-school children tend to like more structured activities such as sports, drama, and music camps. Th ey are ready for a greater variety in routine and are more resilient to changes in venues. Choose programs that you’re comfortable with fi rst, and then discuss these choices with your child so they are involved

in the fi nal decision. Once you have decided, relax and enjoy your summer.

Karen Hergert is the owner and director of Morning Star School, Inc., located in Kenmore and Woodinville. For more information, call (425) 486-9333, or visit the Web site at www.morningstar-school.com.

Bothell catcher Samuel Lee rips a two-run home run over the left-field fence during the Cougars’ 4-3 win over rival Inglemoor on March 26. Lee, a junior, is currently batting .519, which is the third-best average in the entire league. TIM WaTanabe, Bothell Reporter

By Tim WaTanaBe

[email protected]

Fresh off the Bothell High baseball program’s first state championship last spring, one would expect the blue-clad boys to be riding a wave of confidence heading into the 2012 season.

The Cougars, however, graduated nearly all of their impact players from last year, including staff aces Brian McAfee – now pitching at Cornell University – and Henry Bail-largeon, leaving them with the need to form their own identity.

“We’re just in a process of rebuild-ing after losing such a strong senior class,” said head coach Paul Moody, adding that his team was mired in a five-game losing streak after an opening-day win over Bellevue. “ We started out a little slow… then won our last three (games).”

SLAMMIN’ SAMMYThe main problem facing the

Cougars this year is that graduating the amount of seniors the program did last spring, it didn’t allow many of this year’s starters much in the way of varsity playing time.

And in the tough Kingco league, it can be a steep learning curve.

The main exception to that rule is junior catcher Samuel Lee, who got to start as a sophomore last year and has put up torrid numbers at the plate so far this year. He is currently third in the league in batting average

at .519 (14-for-27) and second in slugging percentage (.815).

“Being around all those players last year really helped him,” noted Moody on Lee’s success. “He’s one of the few legitimate comeback kids I have, that were on that team. He’s a good player, a good catcher, hits pretty well and works hard.”

Also off to solid starts are seniors

Rex Carlin, a pitcher and second baseman batting .385, and first base-man Zach Anderson (.308).

On the mound, the Cougars graduated one of the state’s finest in McAfee, but the 16th-year coach hopes the pitchers that have paid their dues in the program will step up while it is their turn to shine.

“Probably our best pitcher right

now is Brady Mickelson,” said Moody. “He’s done okay (for) a se-nior that didn’t get to pitch much last year. He’s kind of earning his wings this year.”

So far in four starts, Mickelson is 1-1 with a 1.75 ERA, with his only loss being a tough-luck 1-0 shutout to Roosevelt back on March 20.

Vikings ready to rise to the Kingco challengeBy anDy nySTrOm

[email protected]

Tyler Beahan doesn’t mind the pressure of playing in the tough 4A Kingco baseball league.

The Inglemoor High senior rose from the junior-varsity ranks last year to help the varsity club notch a 15-9 record and fall just short of making the state tournament.

When coach Bryan McNaghten brought the junior up to varsity for the fifth game because he was on a hitting hot streak, Beahan was ready.

“That motivated me quite a bit to strive harder,” said Beahan, who had played Little League with a lot of last year’s seniors. His hitting suc-cess continued and he started every game for the rest of the season. “It was a pretty big boost.”

And when this year rolled around, Beahan’s confidence level remained high and he was set to play some fast-paced Kingco ball again.

At press time, the Vikings were 3-3 in league and 5-4 overall, including three shutout wins over

Ballard, 9-0, and a pair of non-leaguers against Shorewood, 1-0, and Monroe, 6-0.

“We’re learning. We’re a bit inex-perienced, we’ve only got a couple returning starters, but they’re com-ing along,” said fifth-year Inglemoor coach McNaghten, adding that with some more games under their belt, the Vikings should do well this season.

Inglemoor surely hung tough with defending state champ Bothell on March 26, losing 4-3 in eight innings. McNaghten said it was a

classic, hard-fought Inglemoor-Bothell game.

“It’s good for us to see the boys fight like that. Because that’s the way it’s going to be in the playoffs,” the coach said. “It’s who gets that little thing done at the end is who keeps playing. This is an incredible league, so it’s huge for us, anytime we can play games like that.”

Beahan, who went 3-for-4 with a double against Bothell, feels the hard work and intensity is coming on for Inglemoor.

Viking senior southpaw Danny Larsen, left, and righty Brady Mickelson of Bothell lead their respective pitching staffs in the 2012 baseball season. Larsen pitched an early-season gem against Ballard, a one-hit shutout, and has a 1.31 ERA through 16 innings of work. Mickelson has also been effective, allowing just four earned runs in four starts for a 1.75 ERA. Along the way, he has struck out 22 batters while walking 13. TIM WATANABE, Bothell Reporter

Senior le� y Danny Lar-sen, who was an All-Seattle Premier League honoree with his FM Sports Lux team over the summer, is one of a handful of Vikings who will handle pitching du-ties this year. Other notables are seniors Blake Wilson, Lucas Wimmer and Ryan Caylor, along with Gavin Harris and Curtis Bafus.

Larsen, who � red a one-hitter against Ballard, said he’s in� uenced by Obie Taylor from last year’s team:

hit your spots, throw low, get guys out.

“I don’t usually beat guys with my speed, so I just try and make them hit the ball. I don’t walk a lot of guys, so I just let my defense do all the work,” said Larsen, who’s been pitching since he was young, but has hit his stride the last two years.

� e seniors have be-come leaders this year a� er modeling themselves a� er last year’s older guys, Larsen said.

And Beahan knows how to show teammates how

it’s done from the plate by smashing a game-tying hit against Bothell in the sixth inning.

“I like those kinds of situ-ations a lot,” he said. “� ey put a lot of pressure on you, but when you deliver, it’s a good feeling.”

� e Vikings played a road game against Newport late � ursday a� ernoon, a� er the Reporter’s deadline.

� ey also play Kennedy Catholic tomorrow at home in a nonleague exhibition game, with � rst pitch com-ing at 2 p.m.

A NEW IDENTITYGoing forward, Moody

said that he doesn’t talk about last year’s success with his team, because it’s apparent that the Cougars are a differ-ent squad.

“I think by now they’ve kind of divorced themselves from (winning the champi-onship), because they know that so many of those kids are gone,” Moody described. “They’re just trying to be themselves, and play the best they can. We’re just letting them develop their own year.”

Bothell, however, is not the only team that lost a lot.

The Redmond Mustangs, who joined the Cougars in Tacoma last year as state

semifinalists, lost three Divi-sion I-bound athletes and are currently 1-7.

The key, according to Moody, will be how quickly his players can gain that pre-cious experience and learn what it will take to put a “W” on the board.

Clearly, the proverbial pot of gold is still on the other side of the rainbow, ready for the taking if the team can peak when it matters most.

“We need to gain experi-ence quickly,” he said. “The second key is learning how to win in this league. It’s a tough league.”

The Cougars resumed their league schedule on Thursday night on the road against Eastlake, after the Reporter’s deadline.

Prep roundup: Bothell bats come aliveThe power-laden Both-

After taking a 2-0 lead after the first inning, the Cougars broke the game wide open with seven runs in the second inning and never looked back.

For Bothell, LaSalle University-bound Kendra Heyer went 2-for-3 with a team-high 3 RBIs, with Kelsie Morgan and Arista Honey also notching two hits.

As a team, the Cougars took 11 free passes, scoring their 16 runs on only 12 hits.

Starter Savanna Rose and Kat Balyeat combined for the shutout as the Cougars improved to 2-2 (6-3 overall).

Playing in a 4A Kingco league matchup at home on Tuesday night against Ballard, the Viking fastpitch team fell behind early and eventually lost to the Beavers, 9-2.

Shelby Johnson had a great game at the plate, going 3-for-3 with a double, and freshman Izzy Riddle added two more hits for the Vikings, who were snakebitten by six defensive errors.

The loss dropped the Viks to 3-1 in league, 6-3 overall.

Fresh off a 5-3 makeup win over Roosevelt on Monday, the Vikings showed no signs of slowing down on Tuesday in a 3-1 win over Is-saquah, snapping the Eagles’ four-game winning streak.

Brandon Edwards was the star of the game, going 3-for-3, including a two-RBI double in the first inning, as lefty Danny Larsen earned the win behind a great de-fensive effort by his team.

Larsen went the distance to earn his third win while allowing just three hits. With the win, the Vikings improved to 3-3 in league and 5-4 overall.
