Parks to host meeting on potential lease of seminary building
BY SARAH KEHOE
Bothell resident Heather Heyer started a movement in her community to bring her neighbors together and help each other.
� e Buy Nothing Project began as an experimental hyper-local gi� economy on Bainbridge Island and in just two months, it has become a social movement, growing to more than 4,000
members in 16 groups from San Jose, Calif. to Seattle. � e idea is for local groups to form gi� economies that are complementary and parallel to local cash economies. Heyer uses a
Facebook group page to get her neighbors connected.
People join because they’d like to quickly get rid of things that are cluttering their lives or simply to save money by getting things
for free.Heyer started the group
in Bothell a few months ago and it has around 400 members.
“Our Bothell group is one of the largest and most
active groups in the project and we are growing every day,” Heyer said.
People can post on the group page if they have a need for something or post

Top 10 most read stories of 2013BY SARAH KEHOE
Stories about a Bothell man charged with murdering his estranged
wife were the most-read headlines this year, as the murder, investigation and eventual arrest occurred throughout the year. Bothell/Kenmore Reporter readers also paid close attention to a scandal involving Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb and chipped in to help a Bothell family whose mother battled a brain tumor.
Here are the top 10 most-read stories in order, accord-ing to Google Analytics:
1. “Bothell residents ask Mayor Lamb to step down over a� air,” Dec. 14, 2012.
Several Bothell residents asked Mark Lamb to resign from his position as Bothell Mayor, claiming his admitted a� air has drawn embar-
rassment to the city and distracted the council from important issues, during a council meeting.
A former employee of the North Creek Law Firm, Micaela Mae, 23, sued the business, Lamb and his wife for wrongful termination and invasion of privacy over the two-year a� air between the employee and mayor. Mae � led the civil suit in Snohom-ish County Superior Court on Oct. 29, 2012 seeking unspeci� ed damages for lost wages, future wages and emotional distress.
Lamb admitted to a sexual relationship with the woman in court � lings on Nov. 8, but denied most other claims in her suit.
City Manager Robert Stowe said the city would not take any measures to remove Lamb from his position or investigate the issue. “It’s not

LETTERS | Residents voice opinions on potential Saint Edward Seminary lease [4]
BY SARAH KEHOE
Washington State Parks is beginning a planning process to evaluate a potential long-term lease of the seminary building located at Saint
Edward State Park in Ken-more on the boundary with Kirkland.
� e public is invited to a workshop Jan. 14 to give their input on the building’s future. � e meeting is from
6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the Northshore Utility District Meeting Room, located at 6830 NE 185th St. in Ken-more.
“I just really hope that this meeting tells us all what we
want to know; and that is, what will happen to the park surrounding this build-ing,” said Tom Fitzpatrick, member of the Friends of Saint Edward State Park. “� ere’s been so many issues
surrounding this building over the years and so many rumors. Basically, the most important thing to me is that we keep the integrity of the park.”

Jaden Villa, 2, giggled as he propped himself up on gymnastic rings with
the help of his coach at Both-ell Gymnastics Club.
“I really like taking him here because the coaches are nice and it’s much healthier for him to be active here than sitting at home watch-
ing television,” said Jose Villa, Jaden’s dad. “He always has so much fun during gymnastics class; just look at that huge smile on his face. He always smiles when he’s here.”
Keala Hopps and Amy Linhardt opened the club in October to teach gymnastics to children from preschool to high school.
“I fell in love with coach-ing and am passionate about gymnastics and teaching kids how to live an active, healthy lifestyle,” Hopps said.
Hopps and Linhardt talked about opening their own club together for a long time before signing a lease for the facility in April.
“We decided to do it in Bothell because we really
liked the friendly feel this community has,” Hopps said. “We felt this was a safe area as well, which we knew would be an important fac-tor for our parents.”
Linhardt and Hopps said this is the only gymnastics club in the Bothell area. � e closest location for the other clubs is Everett.
“Now Bothell residents can just hop on the freeway and come over,” Hopps said.
Hopps grew up doing gymnastics in Kirkland and competed through level 6 as well as on her Eastlake High School varsity gymnastics team. She began her coaching career while attending Gonzaga Univer-sity in Spokane. She started by coaching preschool and recreational gymnasts, and then started an in-house and Rec-Op Team program at the gym in Spokane. Hopps was called by the owner of a local Seattle gym and asked to come and manage the recreational program.
Linhardt grew up in Oak Harbor and participated in gymnastics at Oak Harbor Gymnastics School for 10 years, retiring as an ad-vanced optional gymnast at 17 years old. She started coaching classes at her gym at age 14. A� er high school,
she moved to Edmonds to attend college and worked as a site manager for a gym where she stayed for 22 years before deciding to return to her gymnastics roots.
“Gymnastics is a great sport because there are so many elements to it and it requires a lot of discipline, which gives kids that ‘try, try again attitude,’” Hopps said. “� is carries over to other areas of life and helps kids become successful people.”
� e club has 300 kids already.
“I think families really ap-preciate our facility in these winter months when the weather is too cold for kids to play outside,” Hopps said.
Bothell Gymnastics Club
o� ers morning and a� er-noon classes, a preschool playtime and hosts birthday parties. � e owners said that although gymnastics is thought to be a sport for girls, they have many classes speci� cally for boys.
“We truly have something for everyone here,” Hopps. said.
Hopps hopes to continue to build the club.
“We want to grow as we watch our students grow,” she said. “We hope to hire more sta� and o� er more classes in the future.”

a matter for the city to be in-volved in,” said Stowe, during the council meeting.
He added that expenses for council members’ travel “are approved or audited reg-ularly and I have no reason to believe that any of them are inappropriate, so I see no justification for any further action at this time.”
2. “Search warrants reveal new details in Bothell mother’s murder,” March 1, 2013.
Search warrants found there must have been a strug-gle between Susann Smith, 37, and her killer.
Detectives believed she was attacked in her bed with a blunt force object and the struggle continued into the bathroom. An ax was found in the home but detectives determined that it was not used in the attack.
Bloody footprints, both bare or with socks along with a sole, were found in the home. All the prints were determined to be the same size.
Police took blood samples from the residence for DNA testing that investigators said would be instrumental in solving the case. They also served search warrants on Susann’s estranged husband Alan Smith’s apartment and vehicles.
Alan was named as a person of interest in the crime and police searched his car and questioned him. The couples’ divorce battles were examined and other witnesses came forward to discuss Alan’s behavior dur-ing the past year.
Bothell police Sgt. Cedric Collins confirmed that Susann died of “homicidal violence.”
3. “Bothell police warn naked man about sex in front yard of home where
wife was murdered,” June 20, 2013.
Last summer police were continuously called by neigh-bors of Alan Smith, a Bothell resident recently charged with murdering his estranged wife, for loud screams and other disturbances coming from Smith’s home.
In June, a neighbor heard a scream emanate from the home while outside with her landscaper, according to the police report. The neighbor did not observe any other suspicious activity.
Three Bothell police of-ficers responded at 1:23 p.m. after a detective spoke with the reporting party. When officers arrived they walked down the driveway to the front gate. The front yard is enclosed by the gate and a large hedge.
From the gate, officers could see Smith and a woman engaged in sexual acts in a corner of the yard. Police took photos of the couple engaged in the sexual acts for the report and then contacted the couple.
Police told residents to call 9-1-1 if anything was out of sorts in the neighborhood. Smith was only a murder suspect at this time.
4. “Bothell family faces hardship as mother battles brain tumor,” Aug. 16, 2013.
Krystal Warwick had been battling a brain tumor for two-and-a-half years when she was told by doc-tors she had less than a year to live.
Warwick’s faith in God was tested as the thought of leaving behind her husband, her 2-year-old daughter, and her sons, ages 3 and 5, made her heartbroken. Yet it didn’t take long for Warwick let go of her negative thoughts and focus on the thought of heaven and enjoy the time she had with her family.
At the time the article was written, Warwick had lost all right side function and required a wheelchair for her day-to-day living. She also lost all her peripheral vision on her right side.
Family and friends set up a website asking the community for help as her family faced extreme finan-cial hardship with medical expenses, home healthcare for Warwick and daycare costs for her children, as her husband works fulltime outside the home. The Bothell community stepped up and helped the Warwick family reach nearly $5,800 of their $20,000 goal when the article was published in August.
5. “Bothell police arrest Alan Smith for his wife’s murder,” June 27, 2013.
Four-and-a-half months after a mother-of-two was found brutally murdered in her Bothell home, police arrested her estranged husband for the crime.
Alan Justin Smith, 37, was arrested at 8:25 a.m. on June 27 and booked on investigation of murder in the first degree at the Sno-homish County Jail.
“There was no one particular thing that led to this,” said Bothell police Sgt. Ken Seuberlich, the day of the arrest. “There were a number of things that culminated and made detectives confident to make the arrest.”
Seuberlich said that Smith was “cooperative” with detective at the time of the arrest and “not com-bative.”
Smith was served a search warrant on June 20 for his passport. But he was arrested for obstruction when he refused to turn the passport over to authori-ties.
“While [he] was in cus-tody, a second search war-rant was served on Alan Smith for inked images of [his] feet,” said Seuberlich. “Once the images were obtained, Alan Smith was transported to the Sno-homish County Jail and booked on obstruction.”
Search warrants the Reporter gathered in March showed that police obtained a blood stained footprint from the scene of the crime.
6. “Bothell murder victim died of head inju-ries, medical examiner confirms,” Feb. 15, 2013.
On Feb. 15, the Sno-homish County Medical Examiner’s Office identified a dead woman found in her Bothell home as Susann Smith.
Smith, age 37, died of head injuries as the result of a homicide, the of-fice confirmed on Friday. Bothell police found Smith during a welfare check at her home in the 200 block of 240th St. SW in Bothell on Tuesday morning.
Smith’s employer, Z2Live, contacted the Bothell Police Department on Tuesday because they were concerned about Smith’s welfare, said Z2Live CEO Lou Fasulo in a statement on Wednesday.
Bothell police Sgt. Cedric Collins said Smith died of “homicidal violence,” but did not have any further details about the investiga-tion.
7. “Documents show Bothell homicide vic-tim, husband in midst of heated divorce, custody battle,” Feb. 27, 2013.
On Feb. 27, Police identi-fied the woman found mur-dered in her Bothell home and named her estranged husband as a person of
interest.The Smiths were in the
midst of a contentious divorce, according to hundreds of Snohomish County Court documents pertaining to their divorce and obtained by the Re-porter.
It was found that the couple, who was mar-ried for eight years and have two small children together, were separated on Nov. 18, 2011.
They even considered living together when they originally decided to sepa-rate but that did not work out.
Court documents state that “the marriage is ir-retrievably broken.”
The couple’s two children, ages 3 and 6, spent the majority of the time with Susann and extended week-ends with their father.
Alan stated in court documents that they had “reached a fairly high level
of cooperation for eight months without any court orders” prior to hiring law-yers in August.
The couple did have a restraining order keep-ing them apart when the divorce was initially filed.
The most recent disputes at the time centered on Susann’s desire to move her-self and the children to her native Germany to be with her family, according to the documents.
8. “Husband considered person of interest in Both-ell woman’s homicide,” Feb. 22, 2013.
The Bothell Police Department confirmed Feb. 22 that they consider the estranged husband of a Bothell woman who was found dead in her home as a person of interest and served a search warrant on the man’s residence.

if they have something to of-fer. There is strictly no money exchanged and no strings at-tached to giving or receiving. The Bothell group also has a Lending Library were members are welcome to “check out” items that they may need then return them. This way they don’t have to spend money on something they would only use once a year or for a specific project.
“It has been amazing seeing the impacts that the group has made and how it is changing the lives of it’s Bothell members in profound ways,” Heyer said. “The real wealth is the people involved and the web of connections that forms to support them.”
Heyer said she has made many new friendships from interacting with people on the Buy Nothing Project page.
“When we exchange or give items to each other, we
don’t mail them; people come to the home and have an interac-tion while getting their items,” Heyer
said. “The goal is to get people outside, out of
their homes and interacting with one another.”
The project is for anyone, but it can be a great resource for those struggling in the downward economy.
“This is a safe place for someone to post something like, ‘my husband lost his job and we don’t have enough money to buy our child a Christmas present,’” Heyer
said. “Someone will respond to them, encourage them and provide them with a present or something.”
If too many people want an item, Heyer said she does a drawing and picks a winner.
“We wish we could give everyone absolutely anything they want but sometimes we have to filter,” she said. “We do a drawing to make everything fair.”
The Buy Nothing Project encourages sustainable prac-tices as well.
“Our mantra is that almost anything can be reused,” Heyer said. “So people are encouraged to come here in-stead of going out and buying something new.”

Groups see common ground for Seminary building
We write to set the record straight on the position of Friends of Saint Edward State Park regarding a pending proposal for the Seminary building and to o� er perspectives of two key community groups.
At this point, the Friends group has not taken a stand opposing a potential tenant for the Seminary Building. In fact, the charter of the Friends of Saint Edward State Park requires that the group act in support of e� orts by the State Parks Commission.
Members of the Families for Active Parks in Kenmore and the Friends group have met and see potential for common ground between our organi-zations – and the community at large - as follows:
• � e Saint Edwards Seminary building is a panoramic, historic building that is rapidly decaying and needs a signi� cant infusion of funding to be preserved;
• It would be a tragedy for our community and region to lose this facility, and yet we must be cre-ative to save it as State Parks is � nancially strapped and will not see any signi� cant state funding for the foreseeable future;
• � ere are ways to ful� ll key objectives of the “CAMP” document done for Saint Ed’s in October 2008 in a way that combines restoration of the semi-nary building, preservation of historic spaces, and enhancement of recreational facilities;
• We’re encouraged that an individual who could more cost-e� ectively site his cyber-security o� ce space anywhere in Kenmore is considering up to $40 million in seminary building renovations and signi� cant upgrades to surrounding grounds and recreational facilities, out of love for the State Park;
• We see value in State Parks approving an initial short-term occupancy agreement so a more thoughtful long-term process can proceed.
Still, we believe much more information is neces-sary to vet this proposal for the long-term.
We stand ready to speak to the importance of this proposal, in a productive way, at the Jan. 14 public meeting and therea� er.Friends of Saint Edward State Park President Heather Kaminsky and Families for Active Parks in Kenmore President Mike Mulcare
Historical revisions with Seminary building
I want to respond to the letter “Revising history with Saint Edward Seminary” in the Dec. 20 issue. I served on the citizen advisory committee during the park CAMP process, and am a past president of the Friends of Saint Edward State Park.
With all due respect, the historical revisions are � ying thick and fast. McMenamins is a great company with a great business model. It’s easy to see why many thought the seminary building would be a good candidate for one of their destination facili-ties. But the proposal fell of its own weight for two reasons; � rst, the huge cost of the needed repairs to the building, and second, its location at the end of a long, two-lane cul-de-sac, which most members of the community want to keep the current condition.
� e proposal didn’t fail because of opposition from “a few bicyclists and play � eld advocates.” And regarding the opposition, it consisted of a vast majority of the surrounding community.
I look forward to hearing more about the new proposal for re-use of the seminary building at the Jan. 14 public meeting, and hope a use can be found that results in rehabilitation of the building as long as the rest of the park is protected for future genera-tions to enjoy as it is now.Tom Fitzpatrick, Kenmore
Revising history on McMenamins in Kenmore
Recently the Kenmore Reporter ran a letter from
Susan Gardner, “Revising history with Saint Edward Seminary.” � e letter states that “a few bicyclists and play � eld advocates” sunk the McMenamins’ project. � is statement could also be classi� ed as revising history.
As one of a few community members who led the e� ort to promote the need for ball � elds in Kenmore, and as a member of the Saint Edward State Park Advisory Committee that was assembled to produce the Classi� cation and Management Plan (CAMP) for the state park, it is false to assert that the ball � eld leaders opposed or worked against the McMenamins’ proposal. We have always recog-nized that ball � elds and recreational amenities o� en require a collaborative e� ort between public, private and community partnerships.
� ere are many reasons that the McMenamins’ proposal did not succeed, but to put the blame on bicyclists and ball � eld advocates would be a complete mischaracterization of the process and a misunderstanding of who the opponents of this proposal were. Brent Smith, Kenmore City Council
Everyone should enjoy their own creativity
� e Dec. 20 article may continue to mislead parents and students about STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math in education). � e most important word is missing - creativity. It should be clearly recognized that the STEM focus is on tools. However, tools themselves are of little value without a starting the idea and that comes from creativity. � is is what future education should be emphasizing. Wonderfully, every person already has this capability and it only has to be released and encouraged. � at is what every youngster and the parents should realize. Students can be creative and innovate their own ideas successfully in life without being good at math, chemistry or physics. � is is underscored by the motto of UW Bothell seen on local billboards “Inspiring through Creativity & In-novation” not “Inspiring through STEM.”Graham Allan, Kenmore
Revising history with Saint Edward State Park
I would like to chime in on the subject of the prior letters by Susan Gardner and Tom Fitzpatrick.
McMenamin’s could have been an ideal tenant and concept by my recollection, were it not for the following serious issues which needed solutions and funding mechanisms that have yet to material-
ize. Whatever new plan emerges, these challenges could/would still remain and need addressing.
I think McMenamins was interested, listened and decided the hurdles and associated timelines were too great.
� ere were more citizens expressing concerns on a variety of fronts than “a few bicyclists and play � eld advocates.”
First, tra� c volume impacts on Juanita Drive, and the Sammamish River bridge could/would need signi� cant capacity relief related to any major occupancy growth. � e recent tra� c light addition on Juanita at the Park/Bastyr entrance/exit road has been very helpful. Bastyr, as I understand it, has taken steps to try to stagger their tra� c � ow, and have added BU bus transport for students to get to their Seattle facility.
Second, the volume of parking required ... any signi� cant paving would overtake much of the lawn that is aesthetic and enjoyable to the park, and structured (vertical parking) is expensive, and ought to be aesthetically consistent with the seminary.
And � nally, the issue of alcohol in the park seemed to hit a nerve with some of the objectors as well ... I would however have deferred to examining McMenamin’s record for managing their facilities (et al) as a sample of what the public might have ex-pected. I don’t have knowledge of what that record might be, good or bad or in between, but they’ve been very successful with their business model.
I look forward to learning more at the public meeting in January at the NUD meeting room.William “Bill” Leak, Kenmore
Future of Saint Edward Park at stake
Saint Edward State Park is a jewel in the crown of public lands on the shore of Lake Washington and o� ers a unique opportunity for visitors from around the Puget Sound region to experience the natural environment. � e property was purchased by Washington State taxpayers under the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund in 1977 and is to be retained in perpetuity for outdoor recre-ation. Now there is a proposal by State Parks, as reported in your paper on Nov. 27, to convert the park’s seminary building and surrounding grounds into a private o� ce park complex. � is proposal is a hastily devised plan which will compromise the intended recreational uses of the publicly purchased state park and impose long term limitations on future park users.Judy Finn, Seattle

Lockheed Martin hosts Women in Engineering Day
Lockheed Martin’s Bothell business hosted 24 young women on site as part of our annual Women in Engineering Day event on Dec. 6. The sophomores and juniors from three schools in the Northshore School District were selected to attend for their demon-strated interest in math and science.
During the event, Lockheed Martin intro-duced its guests to the exciting opportunities the field of engineer-
ing has to offer and show them how they can translate their interests in math and science into advanced technology careers.
The girls toured the facility, met with a panel of successful women
engineers and had lunch with the local senior leadership team.
Additionally, the stu-dents competed in the spaghetti marshmallow tower challenge, during which teams had 18 min-utes to build the largest
tower that could hold a marshmallow using one yard of tape, one yard of string, and 20 pieces of spaghetti.

Evergreen Academy students donate to Childhaven
Evergreen Academy locations in Both-ell and Kirkland teamed up this holiday season to collect donations for Childhaven, a nonprofit organiza-tion in Seattle that helps children who have been abused or neglected.
As part of Evergreen’s Giving Without Walls program, which teaches
students about commu-nity service and giving to others, children and their families set up Giving Trees at each school loca-tion and collected toys, clothing and diapers.
Students brought dona-tions to the Childhaven facility on Dec. 13 and presented them to a rep-resentative from the orga-nization. Through this outreach project, students learned the importance of
caring for others in need.
Childhaven is a nonprofit organization in
King County that provides care to chil-
dren between the ages of one month and five years who have been abused or neglected. For more information, visit www.childhaven.org.

Never before have we had the abundance of technology avail-
able to our culture as we do today. Websites and blogs have become an everyday part of our life. FaceBook, Tumblr, Instagram and Snapchat are now household names. A social phenomena and an integral means of connecting, their use can be a fun way of being with friends. At other times, its use can
be dangerous and socially damaging.
It is imperative young people using technology distinguish between real and virtual worlds, and are able to emotionally respond congru-ently and appropriately in each of these domains. It’s also vital that Internet com-munication be complemen-tary to social relationships, not replacing their presence or used to avoid human interaction.
As teens and their families navigate the use of technol-ogy in their home, I have noticed these websites have become a source of concern
and tension among families — as teens desire freedom in these regards and as parents seek to implement limita-tions inspired by care and protection. Parents, as you and your children have conversation about their use of the Internet, I encour-age you to explore www.saf-eteens.com for information as you seek to increase safe Internet decisions. I also o� er the following suggestions: never speak with people you haven’t already met in person or who haven’t met a close
friend or family member. When communicating
with online acquaintances and friends becomes more important than the real peo-ple in your world, it’s time to
re-evaluate Internet access. Never pub-licly post personal or private information if you don’t want the entire world to see it. In addition to per-sonal websites and Internet blogs, the
use of cell phones and text messaging has also become a consistent means of com-municating among young and old alike. When used to enhance relationships and convey important informa-tion, it can be an invaluable tool. When its use begins to take over one’s life or its use begins to take the place of genuine human conversation, the impact can be destructive to relationships and to the social development of our youth. � is is a vital develop-mental time for our young people as they navigate rela-tionships — it’s crucial that technology not infringe the ability to practice social skills of personal relationship.
For those texting: Keep it simple. If you’re texting para-graphs, pick up the phone instead. Discuss emotions or decisions about relation-ships by phone or in person. Avoid text conversations about di� cult topics where misunderstandings o� en take place. Avoid gossip. Messages can be forwarded and conse-quences are messy.

BOTHELL/KENMORE˜
BY JOHN BOYLE
Herald Writer
Depending on your perspective, Richard Sherman
is either best known as one of the NFL’s top corner-backs, or as one of the NFL’s biggest talkers.
In reality, he is both.Sherman’s standout play
is why he’s in the spotlight in the � rst place, but his brashness/con� dence/cockiness/whatever you want to call it is also a big part of who he is. On the � eld, Sherman uses his trash talk to get into an opponent’s head — we’re looking at you, Steve Smith — and o� the � eld he uses it to build his brand.
Here we o� er a small sampling of Sherman’s greatest hits, so to speak:
“U Mad Bro?” — Oct. 14, 2012. Sherman, via Twitter, with his now-signature line pasted over a picture of New England quarterback Tom Brady following a Seahawks win over the Patriots.
“Sometimes, man, when the bully gets bullied, that’s how it happens.” — Oct. 24, 2012. Sherman responding to 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh’s complaints about the physical play of Seattle’s defensive backs.
“In my 24 years of life, I’m better at life than you.” — March 7, 2013. � e money shot from a some-times hilarious, sometimes awkward takedown of ESPN’s resident instigator, Skip Bayless, during an ap-pearance on “First Take.”
“It helps when you don’t listen to the idiots in the dra� room. When you don’t listen to the idi-ots, you � nd players like Jeremy Lane and Byron Maxwell and myself and Kam Chancellor, the list goes on, Russell Wilson. But if you sit there and listen to the idiots like Mel Kiper and Todd McShay and things like that, you miss a lot of good players.” — Dec. 19, 2013. Sher-man explaining why the Seahawks have been able to � nd so many steals in the dra� .
“I don’t want to be an island. I want to be more of a tourist attraction. You stop here, I take your
money and you go.” — Nov. 14. 2013. Sherman when asked if he takes it as a sign of respect that
teams are throwing away from him, which is how cornerback Darrelle Revis earned the nickname “Re-vis Island.”
“I’ve been proud of you since you spurned us. I told you, I didn’t want you to go down that path, I’m proud of you, boy.” — Jan. 6, 2013. Sherman, who was mic’d up, to Washington quarterback Robert Grif-� n III following a playo� win, a reference to the fact that Sherman encouraged Gri� n not to come to Stanford, in part because Andrew Luck was also heading there, but also, perhaps, because he didn’t want Gri� n to be sub-jected to playing for Jim Harbaugh.
“A.J. Green is just a lot of noise talking and bad routes.” — Oct. 30, 2011. Sherman to Sports Radio KJR’s Curtis Crabtree following his � rst NFL start, a game in which he su� ered a concussion early and kept playing, accord-ing to an article he wrote this season for � eMMQB.com.
“I’m still a � � h-round pick last I checked. � at will never go away.” — Dec. 27, 2012. Sherman describing why he’ll always play with a chip on his shoulder, even a� er gain-ing recognition as one
of the NFL’s best corner-backs.
“I wanted to make a statement to my city. I’m from Compton (Calif.), and it’s hard for people to understand that you can be an athlete and have high academic standards and achieve high academic things. So, I really wanted to make that known to people that you can go to Stanford from Compton.” — April 30, 2011. Sherman
on the day he was dra� ed, explaining why he went to Stanford despite also hav-ing an o� er from USC.
“He’s an incredibly per-spicacious guy.” — Oct. 3, 2013. Sherman, describing former Stanford teammate and current Colts quarter-back Andrew Luck, who a day earlier had described Sherman as vociferous. In the game of vocabulary one-upmanship, Sher-man’s description of Luck means, “having or showing an ability to notice and understand things that are di� cult or not obvious.”
Sherman: one of the best at talking and defending
Seahawks Richard Sherman is one of the best cornerbacks in the National Football League and one of the biggest talkers. Sherman � nished the season with the most interceptions of any defensive back in the NFL. JENNIFER BUCHANAN, Everett Herald

Bothell/Kenmore Reporter, Kenmore Grand Opening Page Ad 9.833”wide X 6.5” high
BY SARAH KEHOE
Bob Donovan re-members developing photographs with dad,
Jim, in a darkroom when he was a child.
“I love photography,” Bob said, smiling. “It’s always been a part of my life.”
Jim started Kenmore Camera in 1974 for photog-raphy enthusiasts in a small 528-square-foot store in downtown Kenmore. Today Jim’s children, Bob, Scott and Mary, have carried on his legacy by adding more features to the store and continuing to attract a wide variety of customers.
� e company has outgrown its current location and will move to a 17,000-square-foot building in Kenmore Village � lled with two classrooms, an equipment room, shipping and handling rooms and a sales � oor.
� e new Kenmore Camera facility will open for custom-ers during the � rst week of January, with a Grand Opening event happening sometime in February.
“We can’t wait to open our
doors to the community,” Bob said.
� e new facility is a far cry from the business’s humble beginnings.
“I don’t think my dad ever envisioned that Kenmore Camera would become what it is today,” Bob said. “He was just focused on what has always been our mission - to deliver great items to our cus-tomers and provide excellent service.”
� e family-owned busi-ness is a premier provider of photographic equipment and services. � e business is renowned for its extensive training for beginners and professionals, as it has mul-tiple classes o� ered.
“We were all stepping on each other in the old store, it was just too close of quarters,” Bob said. “We had to host our classes at a business across the street and our events at a place in Lynwood.”
Now, many of its events will take place in this ex-panded facility in downtown Kenmore. � e move will provide more than triple the square footage of the current store, which is just across Northeast 181st Street from
the future location.“� is has been more than
20 years in the making,” Bob said. “� is move will allow us to o� er more extensive classes and better serve our customers.”
� e Kenmore City Council approved a purchase-and-sale agreement on June 11 with Kenmore Camera owners Jim and Martha Donovan for a portion of the Ken-more Village property that has been owned by the city since 2003. � e city is selling a 54,000-square-foot piece of property, which includes Kenmore Camera’s new facility, formerly occupied by Grocery Outlet. � e pur-chase price was $1,250,000. � rough a boundary line ad-justment, the city will retain 15,000 square feet of frontage on Northeast 181st Street from the original parcel.
Council members see this agreement as an important step in downtown redevelop-ment and supporting the expansion of a strong local business.
“We welcome this invest-ment because it will bene� t downtown redevelopment goals, which have been the
focus of community interest and discussion over many years — and it ensures the long-term presence of an im-portant Kenmore business,” said Mayor David Baker.
� e city was engaged in a Disposition and Develop-ment Agreement with Urban Partners (later known as RECP/UP Kenmore, LP) for redevelopment of the 9.6-acre Kenmore Village property from 2007 to March 2012, when the parties mutually agreed to end the agreement. � e Kenmore Camera agree-ment stipulates cooperation and coordination with future redevelopment to achieve a smooth function and � t between the properties.
“� e city has been so great to work with,” Bob said. “� ey believed in our vision for the store and have been extremely supportive. We are really grateful that we were able to stay in Kenmore with our new facility, because we love this community; it is our home. “
Bob believes it is the per-sonal touch his sta� provides and the quality of the cam-eras they sell that has made Kenmore Camera thrive
in the midst of a struggling economy and new technol-ogy, such as iPhone cameras.
“� ere’s a place for iPhone cameras and cameras similar to that,” Bob said. “And I be-lieve that place is limited for photographers because those cameras don’t allow you to control light and those lenses are very small; it is more for casual use, like uploading to the internet. When people come to us, they want more than that.”
Bob pointed out most cus-tomers coming to the shop want to use their cameras to take pictures of a speci� c hobby.
“We get everyone from the mom that wants to take
a picture of her kids playing sports to the hiker wanting to capture moments on the trails,” Bob said. “And we talk to them about what they want to use the camera for and � nd the perfect � t for them.”
Kenmore Camera works closely with vendors and gets new products before most stores.
“Vendors trust us because we o� er training, so the cus-tomers will know how to use the cameras they get, which is very important to the manu-facturers,” he said. “So with our training and relationship with the manufacturers, I feel we don’t compete with the big guys, they compete with us.”
Local landmark Kenmore Camera moves to new facilityBob Donovan stands inside the new Kenmore Camera store. SARAH KEHOE, Kenmore Reporter

Washington State Parks is beginning a plan-ning process to evaluate a potential long-term lease of the seminary building located at Saint Edward State Park. The seminary structure and associated cultural landscape were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.
During the past sev-eral months, a group of historic preservation, political and community leaders, has been meeting with Washington State Parks, to discuss how to preserve the Saint Edward Seminary building and grounds. In response to emerging potential for partnerships, the Wash-ington State Parks Com-mission adopted a resolu-tion on Nov. 14, 2013 authorizing the Director to “explore partnerships with other public and pri-vate sector entities for the purpose of rehabilitating the Saint Edward Semi-nary building.”
A private real estate broker approached Wash-ington State Parks with a proposal to lease the seminary on a long-term
basis in November. The client has chosen to stay anonymous and all par-ties are complying with the request. The firm has indicated that the client is a locally based software company specializing in cyber security and that the interest in building use is for office space and related functions.
The discussions have gone so far as broker Kid-der Mathews’ representa-
tives drafting a letter of understanding outlining prelimi-nary lease details. The idea that
the organization attempting to lease
the building may have ties to the Department of Defense riled many in the community.
Any lease of the build-ing would have a direct impact on Bastyr Univer-sity by increased traffic on the two-lane road through the park.
Built in 1930, the semi-nary needs an estimated $40 million in restora-tion. The Washington State Parks invested $2.4 million in storm drainage, water proofing, grading, paving and replanting in 2008 and 2009. Most of the building has been closed to the public during the past four decades.
In 1976, Archbishop Raymond Hunthausen an-nounced the closure of the seminary. One year later the building and 316 acres were sold to the Wash-ington State Parks for $7 million.
State Parks is beginning a public planning process to evaluate this proposal and develop recommenda-tions to the Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission on an appro-priate development plan.
In January 2007, fol-lowing an extensive public process, State Parks adopted a park manage-ment plan including land classifications and a long-term park boundary to provide direction for future preservation and development of the park. These agency actions will serve as a starting point for the current evaluation process.
Last week, State Parks staff organized a meeting with Kidder Mathews and several participants in last summer’s exploratory dis-cussion. As a result, State Parks staff determined the agency should move forward to explore the proposal. While continu-ing to gather public com-ment, State Parks intends to pursue a short-term agreement and a long-term lease exploration.
Short-term, they plan to prepare a temporary right-of-entry agreement authorizing the client’s representatives access to the seminary building to make improvements necessary for the client to establish occupancy quickly. Such improve-ments would bring a small
part of the structure up to a secure, usable standard; for example, cleaning and routing utility and com-munication lines into the building. The intent of the right-of-entry would be to avoid or minimize any changes in public use of the park during the term of the temporary agree-ment. A draft right-of-entry agreement will be available to the public at the Jan. 14 meeting in Kenmore and will be included in a report to the Commission at its regular meeting Jan. 23 in Olympia.
The long-term lease exploration involves working with the client’s representatives to develop
and evaluate a long-term lease proposal. This in-cludes preparing building and site rehabilitation plans and conducting an environmental review process with appropriate public participation, prior to commission consider-ation of a lease proposal. State Parks will decide the specifics of the process for this second step in the coming months.
“We believe we have an obligation as the steward of this significant historic building to explore this lease proposal,” said Don Hoch, director. “It is un-likely that State Parks will receive sufficient capital funds to take care of the building, and the broker-
age firm has expressed that its client has the means and willingness to make a significant investment.”
Hoch emphasized that all necessary and appro-priate planning, permit-ting, environmental review and public involvement would need to be com-pleted before the Com-mission could consider a long-term agreement.
“If we want to keep the proposal alive for further evaluation, we need to allow the client to occupy some part of the building relatively quickly,” Hoch said. “So we want to do what we can to make that happen so we can explore the longer term potential.”

Woman assaulted on north Creek regional Trail
A woman walking alone on the North Creek Regional Trail on Dec. 13 was assaulted, according to the Bothell Police Department.
The attack occurred at 1:30 p.m. in the 19000 block of the North Creek Regional Trail that runs between North Creek Parkway South and 120th Ave. NE, in the city of Bothell. As she was walking, she was approached from behind by an unknown subject,
grabbed and pulled to the ground. The female was able to escape by fighting back and im-mediately reported the assault to the Bothell Po-lice Department, accord-ing to police records.
The suspect was described as being ap-proximately 5-foot-8, medium build, wearing a black puffy jacket with a hood pulled over the face and denim jeans.
The Police Depart-ment is actively investi-gating this assault and anyone with additional information is asked to contact the Bothell Police Department Tip Line at (425) 487-5551.

Woman arrested after brief pursuit, struggle
A 24 year-old Tacoma woman suspected of mail theft was taken into custody this morning following a pursuit and brief struggle. The incident began around 4:20 a.m. when a Snohom-ish County Sheriff’s Office deputy was contacting the woman in her vehicle at 9th
Ave SE and Filbert Drive. They struggled and as the woman fled the scene in her car, the deputy was briefly dragged before falling to the ground.
The deputy returned to his vehicle and pursued the suspect to the Canyon Park QFC, where he used a PIT maneuver to attempt to end the pursuit. The woman rammed the deputy’s patrol car with her own vehicle and then continued to struggle with the deputy after being taken into custody. The deputy deployed his pepper spray and Taser to subdue her.
The deputy was not injured and the woman was taken to a nearby hospital to be treated and cleared for booking.

Wayne Au to chair UW Bothell Diversity Council
Wayne Au, an associate professor in the Education Program, has been appoint-ed to chair the University of Washington Bothell Diver-sity Council by Chancellor Wolf Yeigh. The Diversity Council was established in 2009 as a major priority of the 21st Century Campus Initiative strategic plan to enhance campus com-mitment to diversity and inclusiveness.
As he assumes leadership of the Diversity Council, Au will also chair the search committee for a newly cre-ated position at UW Bothell, the Director of Diversity and Campus Engagement. That search will begin in 2014.
Au is a nationally recog-nized scholar on issues of so-cial justice in education. His academic interests broadly encompass critical educa-tion theory and teaching for social justice. More specifi-cally his research focuses on educational equity, high-stakes testing, curriculum theory, educational policy studies and social studies education.
A broad representation of the entire campus—fac-ulty of all programs and ranks, staff, administration, and students—make up the Diversity Council. All members volunteer their time and assist on one of several committees: website and technology, faculty, staff, curriculum, speaker series, and student activities.

Bothell home prices are up 20 percent while Kenmore home prices were down by 8 percent in November, according to a report done by real estate company Redfin’s Real-Time Home Price Tracker. The numbers highlight an anomalous end to a slow year for real estate, impacted by
slower lending, according to Kenmore real estate agent Jirius Isaac.
The report studies local home prices, sales volume and inventory. The numbers only reflect transactions on the Mul-tiple Listing Service, a local or regional database of available real estate for sale by member brokers.
The November report showed the median home
price for Bothell was $308,722. Sales were up by 2 percent, with 124 homes sold. Homes sold 57 percent faster, spend-ing an average of 10 days on the market.
The median home price reported for Kenmore homes was $386,000. Sales remained flat with 19 homes sold, but homes sold 18 percent faster, spending an average of 19
days on the market.Isaac said the Redfin
statistics are not a very accurate representation and don’t reflect what he has seen in the market this year.
“Frankly, there haven’t been enough sales this year to make too much of a distinction,” he said. “November and Decem-ber are always strange months in our market.”
Isaac noted Bothell homes are typically un-derpriced and sales tend to be higher in that area than in Kenmore, which might be the reason for the increase in Bothell home sales and the stag-nation in Kenmore home sales.
“More than anything, though, the biggest influence on the housing process is loans,” Isaac
said. “It is really hard for people to get loans these days, there are so many guidelines, the banks are making it almost impos-sible.”
Isaac said the best mea-sure of home sales come in the warmer weather, after the holiday season.
“We should be able to get more accurate year to year changes in the spring of 2014,” he said.
