For the past several months visitors to Bonney Lake Police Chief Mike Mitchell’s office have been greeted by a large, blue pig with a Seahawks logo painted on the side, wearing a scarf.
“It’s drawn a lot of question,” Mitchell said with a laugh. “I think it would have been invited to several tailgate parties this year.”
But the chief has other plans for the giant plastic porker: He is

Time for school!
By Daniel NashStaff Writer
School started Tuesday, busi-ness-as-usual. Teachers welcomed students into their classrooms to begin another year of education.
But there was an important difference, sight-unseen: those teachers were not working under contract.
The most recent employment contract between teacher rep-resentative Sumner Education Association and the Sumner School District expired with the close of August, after being draft-ed three years before.
It’s a story not-at-all unique to Sumner after state lawmak-

donating it to Seattle Children’s Hospital.
Mitchell bought the pig, which came with a certifi-cate to have it signed by the entire Seattle Seahawks football team, in May at the fundraiser put on for Mayor Neil Johnson as he was about to begin his can-cer treatment. The pig was one of the large items avail-able as part of the auction during the dinner at the Swiss Sportsman Club.
The chief said he bought it for $725, mainly as a joke.
“It was a good deal,” he said Thursday in his office.
But because of the NFL
Players’ Association strike, the pig sat in his office, unsigned. While it was there, the chief decided the pig had already helped the mayor with his treatment and could probably do even more good.
So instead of keeping it for himself, Mitchell decid-ed to redonate the pig to a place where it could bright-en the day and maybe even raise a little more money.
“I thought, ‘What can I do to continue that streak?’” Mitchell said. “It could help far more children—especially children going through a tough time in their life.”
So Mitchell called Children’s Hospital, where the 2-year-old daughter of his best friend has been receiving treatment for a leukemia and offered it to them.
“It’s just a great organiza-tion and they do a lot for kids and families in need,” he said, adding “They were very excited about it.”
Mitchell suggested installing the pig before it was signed and having play-ers come to the hospital to put their John Hancocks on the big, blue boar, but again,
because of the strike and the shortened preseason, that was not possible.
So instead, representa-tives from the hospital were by this past week to pick up the porker and take it out to Renton to be signed by the Seahawks.
Mitchell said the plan is for the pig to be signed, stay at Children’s for a short time and then be re-auc-tioned to raise money for the hospital.
Representatives for Children’s said they were excited about getting the pig up to the hospital.
“We are extremely thrilled that Chief Mitchell has chosen to donate the Seattle Seahawks pig to Seattle Children’s,” Eve Kopp, director of develop-ment at the hospital, said in a statement.
“We are looking forward to having the pig at the hos-pital for our patients and staff to enjoy, and are cur-rently working on a plan to ensure the pig will have a positive effect on as many of our families as possible,” she said.

The school year may be just starting for students, but report cards for the school districts themselves have already arrived.
And both the Sumner and Dieringer school dis-tricts are getting grades well above the state aver-age in almost every cat-egory.
In Sumner, scores for every testing level except seventh grade beat the state average, some cat-egories by double digits. However, seventh-graders finished below average in reading, math and writ-ing score, though not by much.
Scores for seventh-grad-ers across the state were generally lower than other grades meaning it could be a testing issue.
Compared to last year’s results, Sumner scores are up in every category except 10th-grade writ-ing, but the percentage in that group dropped by less than one percentage
point.And in some categories,
such as fifth- and sixth-grade math, the scores are up considerably over the last report card.
Scores in the tiny Dieringer district also bested the state average, usually by considerable margins. In reading scores, for example, not a single grade level had a passing rate below 82 percent and at the third-grade level, 92.9 percent of Dieringer students passed the exam compared to a state aver-age of 73.1 percent.
Dieringer’s math scores also bested the state aver-age across the board by a minimum of eight per-centage points.
Dieringer’s results also showed improvement from last year in every category except eighth-grade read-ing, which declined by 1.6 percent.
It was the science cat-egory where Dieringer showed the most improve-ment with fifth-garders raising their passing per-centage from 38.7 percent
last year to a whopping 74.5 percent in this year’s results, nearly 20 points above the state average.
Statewide, this year marked the first time the state’s new math stan-dards were tested, using the end-of-course exams or EOCs.
Statewide, 62.4 percent of students passed the Year 1 EOC while 72.9 percent passed the Year 2 exam.
In Sumner, the district bested the state average in the first exam with 65 percent of students pass-ing the Year 1 exam but only 65.7 percent passing the Year 2 test.
In Dieringer, 96.7 of students passed the Year 1 EOC while every single student who took the Year 2 exam passed it. However, because the Year 2 exam, which covers geometry, is usually taken in high school, the number of stu-dents at Dieringer who took it is most likely a small sample of advanced placement kids.
All state testing scores from spring 2011 are avail-able at the state’s report card site at http://report-

Bonney Lake parents
who want their teenagers to have a practical education can rest assured that they’re getting the best, and that’s
official.The state association
for Career and Technical Education named Bonney
Lake High School teacher Tricia Littlefield the Family and Consumer Sciences Teacher of the Year for 2011.
The organization cited her work in parent pre-paredness programs—both in school and through the community—as well as her leadership among her peers. She provides profes-sional support at the state level to other family and consumer sciences teachers. Those teachers selected her to represent them at their annual summer conference in SeaTac in August.
A role in developing innovative programs is a requirement for receipt of the award. Students have the opportunity to earn their professional 20-hour State Training and Registry System certification in Littlefield’s Careers with Children course, to prepare them to enter a childcare center ready to work.
Littlefield’s students pro-vide childcare, registration
assistance and teach about appropriate interaction with children at evening kindergarten success pro-grams.
“The success of my pro-grams is highly dependent on Tricia and her skills as a teacher in her high school classroom,” said Pam Marshall Stoner of Sumner’s Early Learning Center. “What she does for families in our communi-ty is invaluable and she is appreciated not only by me, but by the families and staff that I work with.”
Outside the class-room, students can join Littlefield’s Family, Career and Community Leaders of America. Workplace and leadership skills are applied through service projects, leadership and competitive events. Some of the club’s service projects include blood drives, food bank col-lections, and work for the Children’s Miracle Network and Children’s Hospital. Two of the members went
on to national competition.“She is constantly seek-
ing ways to improve student learning,” Bonney Lake Assistant Principal Sharon Fochtman. “She is a devot-ed, inspiring, hard work-ing, professional educator.”

ers passed a budget includ-ing a 1.9 percent cut in state funding for teacher compensation (though it should be noted that not all districts use the same proportion of state to local funding for teacher pay). Teachers in nearby Tacoma began school Thursday without a contract.
“The two things teachers and the district still need to look at is the 1.9 percent cut and the reallocation of funds to pay teachers,” district spokesperson Ann Cook said. “It’s amicable and we expect to have a contract in a few weeks.”
The next collective bar-gaining meeting between the district and the Sumner Education Association is scheduled for Sept. 15.

Police in Bonney Lake had to use their vehicles to stop a car on Myers Road on Aug. 25 after its driver attempted to flee a hit-and-run accident.
T he P u r s u i t Immobilization Technique, or “PIT” maneuver, involves using the police vehicle to collide with a suspect vehi-cle and turn it in order to prevent further pursuit.
The driver of the sus-pect car was believed to be intoxicated.
The incident began with a phone call to police at approximately 8 a.m. reporting a vehicle in the 18100 block of Bonney Lake Boulevard that was weav-ing all over the roadway.
While police were head-ed toward the location, dis-patch advised the vehicle had collided with a fence and was headed toward Myers Road. The suspect vehicle then turned north on Myers Road, failed to stop for flaggers in a con-struction zone and then finally stopped, exchanging words with a flagger before continuing on Myers Road.
The officer followed the suspect vehicle on to South Tapps Drive East and watched the vehicle swerve across the center line and then overcorrect, swerving into the ditch.
The officer passed the vehicle and watched it again swerve into a ditch before pulling back on to the roadway and continue ahead. The driver turned onto MaryAnn Drive, nearly sideswiping a vehicle
coming the other direction and then going across the road, into the ditch and back out again.
A second officer then joined the pursuit and the driver eventually stopped at the intersection of 198th Avenue Court East. The second officer pulled his car in front of the suspect vehicle and approached the driver, who had her face in her hands and appeared to be giving up.
But as the officer approached, the driver backed up slightly and pulled back on to the road, hitting the police car twice and pushing it for-ward before taking off at a high rate of speed on West Tapps Drive. The car was estimated to be traveling faster than 55 mph in a 35 mph zone.
Police requested and received permission to use
the PIT maneuver as soon as possible.
The suspect vehicle con-tinued on Forest Canyon Road and lost control on a left turn, driving into a ditch for approximately 75 feet before coming back on the road.
A third Bonney Lake police officer then joined the chase.
The third officer, a ser-geant, performed the PIT maneuver as the suspect vehicle attempted to make a left turn on to South Tapps Drive, driving the front of the patrol car into the back panel of the suspect vehicle and turning it sideways as the second officer pushed the front end of his patrol car into the front of the vehicle to prevent it from moving again.
The suspect then gave up, was handcuffed and placed into a patrol car.
The total distance of the pursuit was approximately four miles.
As she was being taken to the patrol car, the driver said “I want to die” several times and repeated it when asked if she understood her rights.
East Pierce Fire and Rescue was called to attend to the woman and she told them she had taken two Zoloft pills.
Police also found Zoloft in the woman’s purse.
She refused a portable breath test but was trans-ported to Good Samaritan Hospital in Puyallup. She declined a blood test and again said “I want to die.”
During an interview with police she asked the officer “Would you kill me, please” multiple times and once said, “I’m a good mom.” She also asked if the officer had a wife and then said,
“don’t beat her.”Police received a warrant
to draw the driver’s blood,
which was done by a regis-tered nurse at the hospital.
The woman never admit-ted to drinking, though police noted she smelled of intoxicants. She was booked on charges of DUI and eluding police.
Bonney Lake Police use PIT maneuver to end pursuit
President Obama and the newly appointed congressional federal debt reduction committee need to look under every rock to find ways to save money and do things differently. Part of the process should be to re-exam-ine previous offers of assistance from the private sector.
For example, the administration should reconsider its rejection of an IBM offer for free software to detect Medicare and Medicaid fraud.
The Wall Street Journal reported the offer last September in an inter-view with IBM Chief Executive Officer Samuel Palmisano. “We could have improved the quality and reduced the cost of the healthcare system by $900 billion,” said Palmisano. “I said we would do it for free to prove that it works. They turned us down.”
Then FOX News confirmed that a second meeting between Palmisano and Obama administration officials yielded the same result: “No thanks!” — even though the proffered “fix” would have eliminated 90 percent of the nation’s health-care deficit — and cost taxpayers nothing if it didn’t per-form as guaranteed.
Don’t get me wrong, IBM stands to make millions if its software succeeds in reducing fraud. But the stakes are high for U.S. taxpayers as well. According to The New York Times last October, a “band of Armenian-American gangsters” billed Medicare for more than “$100 million by invent-ing 118 bogus health clinics in 25 states.” The gangsters made off with $35 million in cash that cannot be
recovered. That’s $35 million in tax money that won’t be available to pay for our grandparents’ medications or treatment.
Fraud is rampant in Medicaid as well. According to the Manhattan Institute’s Steven Malanga, “abuses of Medicaid alone eat up at least 10 percent of the program’s total cost nationwide — a waste of $30 billion a year. Unscrupulous doctors billing for over 24 hours per day of proce-dures, phony companies invoicing for phantom services, pharmacists filling prescriptions for dead patients, home health-care companies demanding payment for treating clients actually in the hospital — on and on the rip-offs go.”
Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., is the Senate co-chair of the debt reduction “super committee.” If seven of its 12 members can’t agree on a plan to save $1.5 trillion over the next decade or if its suggestions are not approved by Congress, it would trigger major spending cuts, including big reduc-tions in the nation’s $533.8 billion defense budget.
If the defense budget gets whacked, Boeing will feel the blow. In 2010, the company made $31 billion from the
defense side of its business, according to Defense News.
The stakes are high, and our elect-ed officials — and U.S. taxpayers — can’t afford to blithely reject offers of assistance from the private sector. Remember when President Kennedy challenged our country to put a man on the moon by the end of the 1960s? NASA got the assignment, but Grumman built the space capsule. Boeing and IBM were among the key contractors on the Saturn V rocket and International Latex Corp. made the space suit Neil Armstrong wore when he walked on the moon.
Hopefully, President Obama and Congress will empower the private sector to help solve our financial woes. That market-based entrepreneurial spirit made America great, and it can help make it great again.
Don Brunell is the president of the Association of Washington Business.
The majority of my 55 years spent hanging out on this big blue marble we call earth, have been spent as a pessimist. The reason for this being, I used to tell myself, is that if I don’t expect good things to happen, then I won’t suffer mind-splitting disappointment when things don’t pan out exactly the way I hoped they would.
Within the past couple of decades though, I have shaken this defeatist attitude and my philosometer
has been pegging on the cup half full side of life.
Driving home from the salt mines the other day for example a bunny rabbit went hippi-ty hopping across SR410 right out in
front of my speeding Malibu...No, I didn’t squash him, or her, or it into pancake style roadkill. It was a rather close call for the frightened little creature though as the guy in the other lane locked’em up to avoid flattening the little bugger.
My point is, I sort of looked upon that as being a good omen of things to come as I watched the rab-bit scurry into the brush on the shoulder of the road, apparently safe and sound.
If I may use a four letter word beginning with an H that my former pessimistic self would have loathed to say, I now allow myself to H-O-P-E for certain sce-narios or outcomes, somewhat secure in the fact that I ultimately have at least some control in determining my own fate.
Things on the plateau and the valley below are start-ing to look up as of late, especially in the world of sports (and after all what else really matters). Both Bonney Lake and Sumner High Schools are going to have great football squads and fabulous girl’s cross country, soccer and volleyball squads all at the same time.

I digress though, as I often do when I start going off on sports tangents.
I was very excited recently when I found out about a wonderful woman who lives right here in the Lake Tapps area, named Heidi Hubler, who in a few days from now on Sept. 11 will jump aboard a jumbo jet to Henderson, Nev. to par-ticipate in the Half Ironman World Championships.
She will not be engaging in this unbelievably cool activity automatically or because this is something she just elected to do on a lark. She had to earn the appearance and she had to train diligently for this appearance. This energetic 36-year-old teacher quali-fied for the Worlds by fin-ishing third in her age group at the Nationals held in Lake Stevens, Wash. two weeks ago at the USAT sanctioned triathalon by completing the grueling disciplines in 5 hours and 5 minutes flat...That is moovin’ and groov-in’ people.
The really nifty element in all of this, is that Huber works in a vocation in which she can make a difference in working with impres-sionable little minds. She is a first- and second-grade teacher in the Dieringer School District and her ambitious nature is certainly contagious. Hubler said that the majority of her kids are aware of her involvement in this hardcore exercise and either think she is certifiably insane or a super hero.
“The other day I told my students that as kind of a warm-up for the half iron-man in Neveda, I was in a bicycle race from Seattle to Portland. Anyway they leaned forward like they were listening intently, so I sort of latched on to that opportunity to teach them a little bit while I had their attention.
“You know kids at that age haven’t been taught distanc-es yet. Lengths and mea-sures are kind of a difficult concept for them to wrap their heads around. So when I told them that it would be like riding their bicycle or tricycle all day long without even stopping to eat dinner
or anything, their eyes got real wide as it sunk in and they all said, ‘Wooowww Mrs. Huber! That would be a really fun thing to do.’”.
Mission accomplished Mrs. Hubler.
In fact, doing something fun was how “Mrs. Hubler” got involved in this rather intense and extreme level of exercise.
“When I was earning my masters degree with a bunch of teacher friends of mine back in 1999 at Western Washington University, and we all began to feel like we were getting out of shape. I had always liked doing stuff in the outdoors like skiing, swimming and hiking, but we all decided that we were
getting soft around the mid-dle and out of shape. So we all decided to try to get back into to shape and began training, so that we might enter the Women’s Danskin Triathalon in Bellingham,” offered Hubler with a gig-gle. “Anyway. Do you know what? It wasn’t the big scary deal I thought it was going to be and actually, it was really kind of fun too,” she contended.
Since that life-changing event, Hubler has been in 25 marathons, 15 half Ironmans and three full Ironmans.
A full Ironman consists of swimming 2.4 miles, pedal-ing a bicycle 112 miles and then running 26.2 miles.
According to Hubler, who also teaches a boot camp fitness class for adults at the Tahoma Athletic Club in Lakeland Hills, this last of the three disciplines is where most people hit the dreaded wall, due to the fact that they hadn’t taken in enough nutrition prior to the race or hadn’t trained adequately.
More and more there has been an onset of obesity because children are con-suming convenience foods like burgers, fries and milk-shakes, packed with grease, sugar, fat and preservatives. Additionally youngsters are leading sedentary, inac-tive lives, spent in front of video games, x-boxes, televi-
sions or texting on their cell phones.
In that I am not perfect myself, by any stretch of the imagination, I do not judge people. Never have and never will.
So, alrighty then, I will climb my oversized, yet not hypocritical butt down off the soap box now. I just admire and would try to model myself after folks like Hubler.
People like Hubler truly inspire me to at least hit the gym as often as possible and forego slipping into the unhealthy patterns.
I have adopted a new credo to survive by, if you will. Eat so that I can live and no longer live to eat.
CORNER FROM 6
The beginning of September is the start of autumn garden mainte-nance and there are a few things to do that will make your landscape and garden more successful all year long. You don’t have to do
all these chores this week, but do try to do them before the weather turns cold and wet.To make your lawn happy
Fertilize your lawn in the fall. Be sure you use a “fall and winter” lawn food and
apply after the fall rains have soaked the soil. This usu-ally means late September to early October.
Fall is the most important time to feed a lawn in west-ern Washington because a slow-release lawn food will
be pushed down into the root zone by winter rains. When the weather warms in spring, the nitrogen will be available to the grass roots just as they wake from their winter slumber. A well-fed lawn can overpower spring weeds and shade out moss.
Rake autumn leaves from your lawn before they suf-focate the grass. In our wet climate, big leaf maples can drop enough heavy, wet foliage to smother even a healthy lawn.To make your flowers
happySnip off faded blooms
and pinch out leggy growth on bedding plants like petunias and marigolds.
Fertilize hanging bas-kets and container gar-dens of annual plants. Deadheading, watering and feeding will keep many annuals blooming until the first hard frost.
Don’t cut back perenni-als like lilies, sedums, asters and daylilies just yet. The
September sunshine helps perennial plants make and store food in their roots for the winter. They need green foliage to absorb the last bits of sunshine.
Cut back and clean up any plant foliage that has turned yellow, brown or mushy. To make your roses happy
Don’t fertilize your roses any time in the fall. The goal is to lure them into dormancy so they’ll sur-vive the winter. Pruning also stimulates undesired growth.
Leave a few faded flow-ers on your rose shrubs so they can form swollen hips. At that point it goes into
a resting phase that can better survive cold weather.
Remember to enjoy your roses during the Autumn season. We live in a climate where roses bloom well into December.To make your doctor happy
Get outdoors and rake, weed, dig and plant. Fall is for planting and gardening is the one activity that offers the bone-building benefits of lifting weights, the aero-bic benefits of jogging, the flexibility of stretching and the stress-busting of yoga.

Issues of body weight are complex and often stigmatized, especially for children and teens. As students begin to return to school, conversa-tions about body image and health should happen with children of all sizes – thin, medium and heavy.
Bodies come in all shapes and sizes, so try to emphasize health and wellness above dieting and weight loss. When speaking with children, it’s important to talk about weight from a compassionate, strengths-based approach.
To get the conversation start-ed with your child, here are some open-ended questions that parents may ask:
health (physical, social, emotional).
like for you?
port you for better health (physical activity ideas, eliminating trigger
foods from the house, etc)?
body? If you are concerned about
your child or teen’s weight, talk to your doctor about your child’s growth history, body development, physical health and eating habits, as your child may benefit from a weight management assessment. The Weight Management Clinic
helping families and children ages 6 to 17 who face weight and eating issues.
The children and teens who come to us are often being teased or bullied about their weight. As a result, they can have moderate to severe body hatred. We aim to provide a safe and compassionate atmosphere that does not stigma-tize but rather educates about the complexities of childhood obesity.
With our “health at every size” approach, we respect the diversity of body shapes; promote eating
that balances individual nutritional needs, hunger and pleasure; and promote enjoyable, life-enhancing physical activity, rather than exer-cise that is focused on a goal of weight loss.
We also communicate about the topic of “weightism,” which is “prej-udice or discrimination against someone based on weight.” Often this is applied to people who are “too fat” or “too skinny.” When we talk about discrimination, we often think of sexism or racism.
a more acceptable form of teas-ing, such as giggles when a heavier
person walks by, comments about what a heavier person is eating, or perhaps comments that a thin person “can eat anything she wants and never gain a pound!” We don’t often think about the stigmatiza-tion that these comments or glanc-es cause.
There is also rampant over-sim-plification of weight issues. Weight is multi-factorial and complex in terms of causes (genetics, lifestyle, physiology, environmental stres-sors, etc). Focusing on a stigma, or personal-responsibility approach, is ineffective and harmful to one’s sense of well-being. Often heavier people have tried to lose weight, have been on numerous diets, and have not been successful. This con-tributes even more to a sense of shame and blame.
When a child is struggling, par-ents often have feelings of guilt and
you can do:
home, if you hear people make fun of someone because of their weight, say something: “I know that you are making a joke, but it’s very personal to me, and I don’t think it’s funny.”
or teen is being bullied due to weight, have them talk it out and make sure that the school provid-ers are aware. This might be a great time for training on “weightism”
at school.
More you make it about healthy behaviors and not about the num-ber on the scale the higher chance of success.
guage. We all have body parts that we wish we could change: tummy, hips, arms. Rather than ignoring that part of your body or telling yourself, or others, that “you are fat.” Try to give yourself some posi-tive self-talk. Make some peace with that body part. “Tummy, I know I think you’re flabby, but you digest well, and I admire you because you are part of my body.”
approach: Focus on what your fam-ily is already doing well. Perhaps a family is great at eating health-ful meals together but they have challenges being active. Every fam-ily is different, so celebrate your strengths while you work toward improvement.

Sumner High School’s girls swim team carried home a third-place state trophy and left six school records shattered at the close of the 2010 season. In SPSL 2A, they were undefeated champs. And the Spartans’ 200-yard freestyle relay team won the school’s second title ever.
But coach Dana Powers’ girls aren’t resting on their laurels. “It sets the bar higher for next sea-son,” sophomore Ashley Huynh said at the close of last season’s competition.
Junior Sami Hendricks added that they could be first this season.
To do so, the team’s roster of talented swim-mers will have to step up their already impressive
game. Madison Munger,
Huynh and Hendricks are all returning school record setters in the 200 medley relay, 200 individ-ual medley, 50 freestyle, 100 butterfly, 100 freestyle and 200 freestyle relay.
The three plus graduate Emma Thompson came out state champions in the 200 Freestyle.
Munger was state champion in the 200 indi-vidual medley, posting a 2:09.57 time.
Promising newcom-ers to the team include Erica McDaniels and Alexandria Castro. Castro has swum competitively since she was a young girl, Powers said.
The girls have their first match against Bonney Lake High School Thursday at Sumner Pool.

It almost seems unfair that Bonney Lake should have two juggernaut juniors on the same girls cross country team.
Coach Andy Foster’s roster is graced by not only Sierra Espinal but also by Marie Wilson. These two are best friends and have been making an impression in SPSL 3A meets, regional and state tournaments for the past couple of years. Now this one-two punch appears to be poised to step out of the shadow cast by former Panther Veronica Stinnett and ignite this year’s BLHS cross country team.
The tandem will not be alone in their quest to return to state. Aid will come from junior Hope Dickson and sophomore
Haley Theriault, which rounds out the top five scorers.
The boys side is impres-sive as well, as Foster explained the girls and the boys reported for the first few days of tryouts in better shape than ever.
Leading the boys squad will be senior Andrew Cunningham, who enjoys being part of the team to stay in shape for the wres-tling season, junior Ryan McGraw and freshman Nolan Weber.
The Panthers will com-mence their season today, Wednesday, with a non-league warmup against Sumner High School.

TEETHING REMEDY WARNING
The FDA recently issued a safety announcement that warns parents against using benzocaine teething products in children under the age of two years. The use of these products (including Orajel, Baby Orajel, Orabase, and Anbesol) can lead to a serious condition known as “methemo-globinemia,” which involves the inability of the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells to transport oxygen to the body’s cells and tissues. Fortunately, there are a number of alternative treatments to benzocaine teeth-ing gels, including chilled rubber rings that babies can chew on to soothe their teething discomfort. Solid frozen rings, on the other hand, should be avoided since they can cause injury to baby’s tender gums. Parents can also massage their baby’s gums with clean fingertips. P.S. A good teething remedy is a wet washcloth that is twisted into a rope and set in the freezer for a few minutes. Teething babies can chew on the washcloth until it re-turns to room temperature. You can rely on us to answer all your questions about dental treatments and procedures. At LAKERIDGE DENTISTRY, PLLC, we appreciate the opportunity to provide you and your family with quality dental care. Our team is made up of well-trained profes-sionals who work together to provide the highest quality treat-ment in a warm, caring setting. We’re located at 8412 Myers Road E., Ste. 301.

The Bonney Lake volleyball squad should be able to carry on the tradition that has exist-ed under the tutelage of coach Shirley Baker. This season, she has reloaded with sophomore and junior talent like middle hitters Bailey Kinkel and Erica LeFevers.
With the exception of Taylor Watkins and skilled senior setter Chelsea Merkel, Bonney Lake had a relatively inexperienced contin-gent last season but still managed to reach regional competition, narrowly missing state participa-tion.
Bonney Lake once again fig-ures to be a thorn in Enumclaw and Auburn Mountainview’s side, when the Panthers’ South Puget Sound League 3A schedule gets under way later this month.

The Sumner High volleyball team plans to give its SPSL 2A opponents fits.
Sara Heuett is one of the few seniors grac-ing this year’s roster. She is a talented and experienced setter. Backing up Heuett is junior returning starter Brittany Smith, a well-rounded player who can offer support in all positions.
Other juniors are Cassidy Sargeant, a mid-dle hitter, and Amanda Friermuth, an outside hitter outed by injury last year.
“We are young again this season, but we have a number of girls returning from last year’s squad who developed while they were learning the ropes,” coach Mike Fitzpatrick said. “Despite the fact that we are in a tough SPSL 2A, with much-improved (rivals)... we should fare pretty well.”
Sumner will travel to take on district rival Bonney Lake tonight, Wednesday, then travel to Franklin Pierce Thursday in league. Both contests begin at 7 p.m.

Six Spartan boys golfers were league titleists in the 2010 season. Seniors Brandon Barlow and Austin Spanier placed in the top 20 in state competition. Juniors Kai Taylor and Tom Murphy also made it to the state tournament, and juniors Carson Dunham and Joe Bethards made districts.
Promising newcomers are freshmen Johnny Staley and Riley Bruil.
Junior Olivia Durham will be the girls team’s strong returning player this year, coach Casey Adcox said. Durham made the SPSL 3A tournament as a sophomore.
Juniors Rachel Fox and Skylar Runions, sophomores Madison Henken, Samantha Walsh and Tianna Munroe, are the newcomers to watch this season.
The teams will play Bonney Lake High today, Wednesday, in nonleague play. League play kicks off at 3:15 p.m. Thursday versus Clover Park High at Meadowpark Golf Club. Look online for scores.

While the top senior on the girls side is Gabby Phelps, the females will also be fortified by juniors like Jasmine Babcock, Natasha Wilson, Allie Sims, Katie Wire and Robi Long.
Sophomore candidates are Saylor Nygaard, Esther Hong and particularly Abi Hensler, who burned up the track in the distance events late last spring as a ninth grader.

Sumner boys tennis coach Chris Heacox thinks his team will hold its own with anyone in their league, including last year’s state champion Washington team.
“It’s the biggest (team) I’ve had in seven years,” he said.
Despite a large team, 18 of the players are freshmen or sophomores. Heacox said he expects to play freshman Zak Landers in the No. 1 singles position.
Landers has played some club tennis and should do pretty well in the top singles slot. The No. 2 singles position is still up in the
air. The Spartans experience will come into play in the doubles matches, where Heacox plans to play three seniors in the four positions for the top two doubles teams. Heacox said Hunter Bleha, Will Mortell and Alex Landes will definitely play and he expects to round out the teams with either Brandon Walsh or junior Scott Brown.
“The exciting thing is there are a lot of kids who are pretty talented behind them,” he said, adding that there are 10 guys fight-ing for the final two spots on the team.
Sumner finished third in their league last season.
The Spartan tennis team opens the sea-son today, Wednesday, at Fife.

Rainier Hills Photography Club shutterbug Barbara Ogolsky captured this shot of Mount Shuksan under an October sky last fall. A near perfect refl ection can be seen in the water. Shuksan in the Lummi language means, liter-ally, “High Peak.”

Sumner city councilman Leroy Goff loved his neighbor’s porch front garden so much, he had to snap a picture before the end of the season left these gorgeous fl owers to wilt. According to Goff , the owner takes the time every year to make her home stand out.
So pink!If there was any doubt left that the earth is round, Summer Kozisek eliminated it in one fell swoop with this stunning photo of a tulip crop in full bloom. Kozisek’s use of a fi shbowl lens makes the landscape positively dizzying as rows and rows of fl owers vanish toward a single point on the horizon. Kozisek is another mem-ber of the Rainier Hills Photography Club.

Thank You… to our Staff and Volunteers, for your years of dedication. We honor our extended family of residents, families and friends.
In observance of National Assisted Living Week®, September 11 to 17, Expressions and Living Court will host a series of events developed as a special opportunity to bring together residents, families,
employees, volunteers and the surrounding community to celebrate. “FOREVER PROUD.”

Assisted Living
Week ★September11 - 172011
National Assisted Living Week® is an annual celebration sponsored by the National Center for Assisted Living, Washington, D.C. and assisted living facilities nationwide. For more information on National Assisted Living Week®, visit www.nalw.org
Forever Proud, a patriotic theme, was chosen because the fi rst day of National Assisted Living Week begins on the 10th anniversary of 9/11. While we remember the fallen we also recognize the pride we feel as American citizens and in our community. Forever Proud also addresses one’s pride in work done well, family and friends, or a skill mastered. Feeling proud about our citizenship, community participation, friends
and families is a universal feeling. This week long celebration is a demonstration of the commitment Expressions of Enumclaw and Living Court Assisted Living Professionals feel when providing care and services to residents in our communities.
