On a Tuesday afternoon, Nashville musician Chad Chapin was giving a tour of his new remote learning class-room at Michelle’s Studio of Dance in Bonney Lake. The room is set up with an upright piano, drum set, four guitars — two acoustic, two electric

— arranged standing in a semicircle around a stool, and a lone webcam on a tripod stand. Chapin aimed the camera at the piano’s ivories, which were now being transmitted to a television mounted on the wall, and had begun walking through the stu-dent experience when an incoming Skype call replaced his hands on the flatscreen.

“So let’s say a student has a lesson at 4 p.m., they just sit at the piano with the camera pointed like so,” Chapin said. “So the instructor can-”

The call comes in. Chapin answered and the image on screen

became a man sitting at home, posi-tioned in front of a keyboard, head-phones on his head to prevent echoes from the other side of the call.

“Oh, that was perfect timing,” Chapin said. “This is Andrew Higley, one of our instructors, and right now he’s calling from Cincinatti. So let’s say a student has a lesson with Andrew at 4 p.m. They sit at the piano and during the lesson they can look directly at him, and he sees his students’ hands on the keys — and if you look in the corner of the screen, that’s what our camera is showing

Justin Linn, 28, who was shot Aug. 22 in Buckley by a Pierce County Sheriff ’s deputy, died Aug. 30 at Tacoma General Hospital, according to the Pierce County Medical Examiner’s Office.

According to the exam-iner’s office the cause of death was a gunshot wound to the neck.

Linn was shot near the West Main Motel in Buckley when he refused to stop when ordered by a deputy, according to sher-iff ’s spokesman Ed Troyer.

The sheriff ’s depart-ment reported Linn had arrived in Buckley Aug. 21 on a stolen Suzuki motor-cycle and stayed the night at the West Main Motel.

Linn is alleged to have stated he was in Buckley to kill an adult child and the parents who were aware of home invasion crimes he was alleged to have com-mitted.

Linn was confronted by deputies outside the motel the morning of Aug. 22. The deputies had tracked Linn to the motel and were aware of the threats. The deputies told Linn he was not going to be allowed

to leave. Linn ran a short distance and was shot in a grassy parking strip. He was treated at the scene by emergency personnel and taken to Tacoma General.

There is no report of Linn firing on the deputies or if he was armed. Troyer said the deputies assessed the danger Linn presented at the scene and decided to shoot when he fled.

Linn was a suspect in a July 27 Spanaway home invasion where a victim was shot in the chest. In that case Linn is suspected of first-degree burglary, robbery and assault.

The invasion involved

two women who entered the home, followed by two masked, armed men. The four forced their way into the victim’s bedroom.

During a struggle the sheriff ’s department allege Linn shot the victim in the chest.

He eluded police on two occasions, once on foot when deputies found a loaded firearm Linn had dropped.

According to the sher-iff ’s department Linn had made threats to “shoot it out with law enforcement and to seriously injure wit-nesses and civilians.”

Suspect shot in Buckley dies at Tacoma General

will be held Oct. 9 at an as-yet unannounced time and location.

Voter Initiative 502, passed during the 2012 gen-eral election, laid out the basic three-tier commercial market for recreational can-nabis. For the past year, a task force of the state Liquor Control Board began for-mulating rules to regulate the market and answer the questions raised by the law, such as: Which licensees are responsible for transport-ing product? How will the distance from schools and other prohibited areas be measured? And how can an applicant’s criminal his-tory be objectively measured when considering a license application?

Along with the proposed rules, the task force released a list of municipalities, by

county, and how many retail stores each city would be allowed to have based on census and consumption data. Bonney Lake will be allowed one retailer, but unincorporated Pierce County will be allowed 17 retailers. Tacoma, at fewer than 200,000 people, will be allowed 8; Seattle, which contains more than three times the population of Tacoma, will only be allowed 21 retailers.

The city of Sumner was allocated no stores. Last November after I-502’s pas-sage the City Council passed an ordinance banning producers, processors and retailers of marijuana from doing business within city limits, citing the continued federal ban on cannabis.

The proposed rules can be read on the Liquor Control Board’s website, along with a list of changes to the rules since the last draft was sub-mitted July 3.

sales and a slight inventory improvement indicate strong buyer demand in the region.

The listing service rep-resents 21 counties, four of which are in the Puget Sound region - King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish. In those four counties, there was a total of 6,916 pending sales reported in August, the highest since 2006.

The median cost of com-pleted sales for single-family residences in the region also increased from $250,000 in August 2012 to $283,000 this year. The median of homes in Pierce County was reported as $225,000 in August.

Two other months have seen higher year-to-year jumps in 2013. A 14.9 per-cent increase was reported in March and there was a 13.4 percent increase in May.

Pierce County’s August cal-culations specifically showed an 18.5 percent increase in pending sales and an 8.6 per-cent increase in median home prices over last year.

At the time of press, the listing service reported home prices in the greater Puget Sound region have gone up 18.3 percent since the begin-ning of the year.

“We have seen 22 straight months of strong-surge sales activity,” John L. Scott chair-man and CEO Lennox Scott said. “Job growth, pent up demand by local home buy-ers, residential investors, incoming transferees, a strong local economy and historical-ly low interest rates have led the way during this recovery phase of the residential hous-ing market.”

All persons in the police blotter are presumed inno-cent unless proven guilty in a court of law.

HIT AND RUN: On Aug. 28, a caller reported a hit and run in the parking lot of a state route 410 retailer. The caller was parked in front of the suspect vehicle, which he said backed out of a stall and hit an unat-tended vehicle to the rear. An officer arrived to confirm the damage. us-ing suspect information provided by the caller, the officer confirmed he was a Buckley man and coordinated with Buckley police to contact him about the damage. The Buckley officer contacted the man, confirmed the damage, and connected the suspect with the Bon-ney Lake officer to give a statement about the inci-dent. he was cited for hit and run and for having no vehicle insurance.

FALSE IDENTITY: At 1:43 a.m. Aug. 29, an officer stopped a vehicle with defective tail lights. The driver could not furnish identification or insur-ance, but provided a name. A records check allowed the officer to determine the identity given was false. The driv-er afterward gave his true identity, which came up with a felony department of Corrections warrant for escaping community cus-tody. The driver was cited for making a false or mis-leading statement to a public servant, provided a notice of infraction for the taillights, identifica-tion and insurance, and booked into enumclaw jail. The car was towed.

NO CONTACT: On Aug. 30, an officer stopped a vehicle on Main Street east after a records check showed the registered owner had a suspended license. during the stop, a passenger was found to be in violation of a no contact order with the driver. The passenger was arrested and booked into enumclaw jail. The driver was cited for driving on a suspended license and given a notice of infrac-tion for failing to provide proof of insurance.

THEFT: On Aug. 30, a de-livery driver reported the

theft of his jacket from the back of his truck. The unknown suspect additionally damaged the pulley system on the roll-up door of the cargo compartment. An officer photographed the dam-age for evidence.

HANDGUN: On Aug. 30, a Bonney Lake man gave a statement on the theft of a .38 caliber handgun, magazine and box of am-munition from his 81st Street east residence. he had noticed the items missing on July 25 and said, because nothing else of value was taken, he believed the theft was by someone familiar with its location. The handgun was entered as stolen into the WACiC and NCiC crime databases.

WARRANTS EVERYWHERE: On Aug. 30, an officer stationed with a radar gun observed a car speed through an intersection on South Prairie road. An emergency stop was initiated and the suspect car appeared to pull over before taking off as the officer settled behind him. The officer followed the vehicle to a Lalapaloma drive resi-dence, where it stopped in the driveway. due to the circumstances, the officer approached the driver at gunpoint until backup could arrive. The driver and passenger were both found to have warrants for their arrest issued by Puyallup police. The property landlord came onto the scene and discovered an unknown woman in the home. An officer stopped the wom-an, later determined to be the driver’s girlfriend and registered owner of the vehicle, after she at-tempted to flee from the rear of the house. She was found to have a war-rant for her arrest issued by Lakewood police. All three suspects were ar-rested and transferred into the custody of the appropriate police agen-cies.

ASSAULT: At 6:09 a.m. Aug. 31, an officer was dis-patched to an assault on Church Lake road near Veterans Memorial drive. The caller had driven by a man and woman stand-ing on the side of the road and turned around after he heard a scream. The man left the scene as the driver turned. Ac-cording to statements taken at the scene, the man had punched the

woman in the back of the head several times and taken her money and cell phone. The suspect was found to have a no contact order prohibiting him from being near the victim. he was not lo-cated near the scene, but was issued citations for violating the no contact order and assault in the fourth degree. Two other people at the scene were found to have warrants for their arrest.

SHOPLIFTING: On Aug. 31, two officers responded to an Sr 410 retailer, where a shoplifting suspect and his young daughter were in custody. Loss preven-tion employees reported the man, known to them from a prior similar inci-dent, had attempted to leave the store without paying for a computer system and other mer-chandise in his shopping cart. Loss prevention had confiscated a magnetic security tool, capable of removing the anti-theft device on the item, in his possession. The sus-pect was booked into Pierce County jail and the daughter was released into her mother’s cus-tody.

DOMESTIC ASSAULT: On Sept. 1, officers were dispatched to a domes-tic assault report from a man being treated for a broken nose at a nearby hospital. he reported he was repeatedly struck in the face by his wife dur-ing an argument, while he was a passenger in a vehicle driven by her. he was eventually able to get away in his own vehicle, the windshield of which he said she had cracked with a rock. Of-ficers were unable to contact the suspect at her residence, but for-warded their report to the Pierce County Pros-ecutor to review possible felony charges of assault in the second degree and malicious mischief in the third degree.

STOLEN TRUCK: At 5:30 p.m. Sept. 2, officers were dispatched to a 196th Avenue east property, where the residents re-ported finding a man and woman attempting to enter their camper. The suspects fled on foot, leaving behind a pickup truck later discovered to be stolen from a hotel parking lot in Sumner. A K9 unit with the county sheriff’s department tracked the suspects’

scent to 96th Street east. residents in the area di-rected the unit through the neighborhood to a 198th Avenue east home where, after two search-es, the suspect woman was found hiding under rags in the garage. After questioning the suspect for more information on the incident, she was booked into Pierce Coun-ty jail for possession of a stolen motor vehicle and criminal trespass in the first degree.

“Honey, it’s time to mow the moss!”

I realize it is a bit early to address such a topic, but it will not be long before some homeowners may be faced with such a dilemma.

Sellers of lawn fertiliz-ers and moss killers are not going to like this story. Why? Because it will give hope to rain-soaked homeowners who suffer from moss-ridden lawns nurtured by our moist Northwest climate. Besides, this is a true story.

A few years ago in the rain forest near Allyn, Wash., the Bob Supino family was fight-ing a losing battle against the moss invasion of their freshly-planted turf. Of course, the lawn did have a few strikes against it to begin with.

First, it was lacking one key ingredient -- topsoil. Indeed,

the yard-to-be was a mix-ture of sand, rocks and clay perched on top of a hardpan.

Second, the struggling new turf quickly became a fine fescue feast for 40 million (a rough count) crane fly larvae.

Finally, as the moss was marching toward final victory over the rapidly-diminishing grass, Diane noticed that some unusual things began to happen.

“People began to stop by and compliment us on the

lush green appearance of our lawn at unusual times of the year -- like in the middle of winter when all the neighbors’ lawns looked like they were dead.

“We began to won-der if we should kill the grass and just go with the moss,” she said.

Even a friend who was a turf salesman checked out their yard to determine the feasibility of producing moss lawns for Northwest land-scapes. Possibly with tongue in cheek, he was impressed by the prospects.

Eventually, the moss was growing so fast that Diane had to mow it – even when neighboring grass lawns were still ugly brown and dormant. Passersby then began to com-ment on the nice appearing

patterns on the velvet-like lawn. Some felt it even rivaled some of the finest formal gar-dens of England.

“However, in the summer when the weather became drier,” she said, “the moss took on a different luster. That caused people to stop by and ask how we created the unusual blotchy, dead-like, orange-rust appearance when everyone else’s lawns were nice and green.”

All these things caused the family to ponder what it should do. First, they listed all the advantages they could think of for growing a moss lawn.

1. Low maintenance -- no watering, fertilizing or appli-cation of moss killers.

2. Enjoy the comments of passing strangers on the unique appearance of the lawn at unusual times of the

year.3. No need to worry about

invading buttercups, clovers or dandelions because their bright yellow and purple blos-soms proved to be attractive contrasts to the lush green hues of the moss.

4. When mowing, the moss clippings could be gathered in a moss catcher and fed to the family rabbits.

5. The cushiness of the moss created an unusual but pleasant spring in one’s steps when walking across the lawn.

However, they also recog-nized that moss lawns were not without their drawbacks. Bob noted two important ones.

First, they had to learn new clichés like, “The moss is always greener on the other side of the fence.”

Second, they experienced

serious difficulties when shopping for “keep off the moss” signs.

Finally, Diane reported that squirrels began to hide bulbs from the neighboring yard in the moss turf. She com-plained that they remembered where each one was hidden and their activities tore up portions of the lawn.

Well, Lily-Miller and Nulife, with these serious drawbacks, maybe there is still hope for grass lawns after all.

The smell of aging paper took over my senses the sec-ond I smelled the book. This is the best part of an old book; it is a wonderful smell. The worn out hardback cover had seen better days with scratches on it and the corners bent inward. The paper itself was delicate and thin, threadlike even. This soul work has been enjoyed by many others through different times, different homes and

places, and so this is a tiny piece of his-tory.

N o w , wouldn’t you like your own child or g r a n d c h i l d to experience

this? To smell the old book, to hold it in their small hands with awe and discover a new mystery?

I asked someone what they think if the next genera-tion of children doesn’t have old novels to enjoy and their answer was this, “They will lose the appreciation that someone used to type each and every word on a type writer with real ink and bind them together. That is art and history combined.”

Print books are dying off, it is a sad but true fact. There were around 280 million dollars in e-book sales while hardcover came to around 220 million in 2012, both were adult. If that was just the adult e-book sec-tion, think of how much more money they are making.

Jenna VanHoof,for the Courier-Herald

un·op·posed adj.Not challenged by another: The can-

didate was unopposed in the cam-paign.

Why do candidates run unop-posed? The candidate may be doing so well that the other eligible persons all support the candidate. Or, someone who wishes to oppose is not eligible for candidacy. Perhaps no one cares enough to enter the election. Or, a candidate is helping challengers in other races and those challengers are showing their appreciation by allow-ing the candidate to run unopposed in exchange for their tutelage, sup-port and mentoring to oppose other incumbents.

I may be reading too much into a recent column by this newspaper’s editor, Dennis Box. The part I keep mulling over is this:

“I have been thinking about the American attitude toward political leaders. Politicians are almost as low on the opinion polls as journalists. The difference is journalists gener-ally don’t care if they’re hated and politicians, by their nature, want to be loved. That explains why many say they are not politicians, but are community servants who happen to

put signs out asking people to vote for them.

“I understand the sentiment.“Most local political leaders real-

ly do go into office trying to serve their community – at least mostly. All human action is conflicted (this from the twisted mind of an editor known as Mr. Joyful).

“I have come up with a solution for politicians to get more lovey-dovey respect. Get more names – a lot more.”

I heard this as a call for more can-didates’ names on the ballot. Like I said, perhaps I read more into it than Dennis intended. I was thinking more races in the primaries. More choices for voters. Speaking of voters, where are you?

As of the Aug. 20 certification of

the primary, in Pierce County at large, the primary election saw a voter turn-out of 19.89 percent. Pathetic!

Of 445,539 registered Pierce County voters, 88,638 ballots were returned and counted as of certification of the August primary, according to the auditor’s office. Appalling!

There were 2030 votes cast for the Bonney Lake mayoral race and 11 people voted, but did not vote for mayor, just the other items on the bal-lot (under votes). This means about 11 percent of the citizens of Bonney Lake are making the choices for the over 17,000 residents. Inexcusable!

In the city of Sumner, Sumner City Council member Nancy Dumas has filed to run against incumbent Mayor Dave Enslow. Dumas said she decided to run to give Sumner residents a choice for their mayor.

“I firmly believe a candidate should never run unopposed,” she said. “I believe I can bring renewed energy to the team on council. Companies change their management all the time. I’m looking at it from a busi-ness standpoint to change the ener-gy, encourage creativity and keep it

fresh.” Of course, she wise-ly filed during the week in May for candidates to get on the ballot and in the voter’s pamphlet.

Synonyms for unop-posed: unchallenged, unobstructed, unrestricted, unhampered, unimpeded, unrestrained, uncon-strained, unchecked. Are these qualities you want in an unopposed candidate?

I found these com-ments on the web about the recent November 2012 election and unopposed candidates that made me chuckle. “Either vote or abstain. There’s no reason you can’t at least cast your vote. Might give hope next time around to a hopeful candidate.”

I like this one: “I like to leave it blank. It sends a message: blah blah ran unopposed and won with only 24 percent of votes....what?”

Another said, “I usually write myself in. It makes me chuckle.”

Per pages 20-21 of the Pierce County 2013 Election Guide for Candidates you merely have to file a Declaration

of Candidacy and pay the $48 to run for Bonney Lake Position 1 and conduct your write-in campaign. And of course all candi-dates must file with the state of Washington Public Disclosure Commission. The last day to file as a write-in is Oct. 18, but I think the sooner the bet-ter. Of course, you won’t be in the voter’s pamphlet and will have to campaign heavily to get your name out there so voters know you are asking for their vote.

Votes cast for write-in candidates who filed dec-larations need only specify the name of the write-in candidate in the Position 1 blank on the ballot in November and connect the arrow in order to be counted.

But write-in campaigns are tough. In the recent pri-mary, write-ins accounted for less than 1 percent of the total. It is a lot of hard work to run a campaign, let alone a write-in campaign but it can be done if you are moti-vated. Lynda Dabson ran a write-in campaign against me when I was elected to council. I imagine she and her supporters felt much like I do about unopposed

candidates. In fact Dabson ran against the unopposed one when he won his bid for City Council. Could the third time be the charm for her? The unopposed one and I are about as far apart as any two people can be. Could it be Dabson was one of those “community ser-vants who happen to put signs out asking people to vote for them?”

Anyone out there inter-ested? I personally think someone who is a proven winner is best for the job, like a former council mem-ber who knows the ropes, who has been previously elected. There are quite a number of us alumnus here in Bonney Lake. I wouldn’t want to see another situ-ation like Pacific…serious inquiries only please.

If you would like to hear what the candidates for Bonney Lake mayor and council have to say, you can attend the Bonney Lake Chamber of Commerce Annual Candidates Forum and Chamber Luncheon. It will be facilitated by Dennis Box, Editor of the Sumner/Bonney Lake Courier Herald. If you are not a chamber member, the

cost is $15 ($10 for cham-ber members). It will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 12, at Midtown Grill, 20609 SR 410 E in Bonney Lake. The event is sponsored by Kelley Farm. Reserve your seat by contacting Lora Butterfield by phone at 253-222-5945 or via email at [email protected].

GolfBoys

If the Bonney Lake High boys golf team has one thing going for it as it heads into the 2013 sea-son, it’s experience. With the exception of one gradu-ated senior, the Panthers retained their entire varsity roster from 2012.

“We finished (last sea-son) on a good note, going 4-1 the last half to finish 5-5,” Coach John Rushton said. “I was very pleased with how we finished.

Sophomore Curtis Koltermann made it to the state tournament in the spring, and Rushton said he hoped at least three Panthers would make it to the spring qualifier in 2014.

Rushton has six varsity spots to fill this season. Seniors Kash Koltermann, Jacob Rash, Quinn Williams and Taylor Mayfield were pegged as strong return-ers. Top juniors are Taylor Dow, Taylor Graham, Blake Ralton and Grant Townsend, as well as soph-omore Frank Griffin.

“I am very excited for this group this year,” Rushton said. “There are a lot of boys competing for the six varsity spots, so we will have a deep team. The key is: who will be consistent? Each boy I mentioned is capable of shooting a good round in the 30s for nine holes, but who will step up to the plate and be the one who plays the best?”

Rushton said he hopes for the team to finish in the top half of the South Puget Sound League.

GirlsLast season, Bonney

Lake’s girls golf team fin-ished with a 6-4 record in South Puget Sound League 3A, and now-graduate Desirae Haselwood fin-ished in sixth at the state tournament on Lewis River golf course.

The Panthers have four returning players for the 2013 season: seniors Kat Edwards and Sam Leader, and juniors Courtney Campbell and Hannah Martin.

“We plan to have fun and translate that into a positive individual and team per-formance,” coach Sharon Lovinger said.

Both the boys and girls

teams played Auburn Mountainview at the Auburn Golf Course Tuesday, after press time. Scores may be found online. Both teams play Decatur Thursday, with the boys playing at Twin Lakes Country Club in Federal Way, and the girls at High Cedars Golf Course in Orting.

Cross CountryBonney Lake High

School’s cross country teams are over 50-strong and hope to have a strong season in 2013.

Last year, the girls var-sity team made it to state for the third consecutive time, and two boys made it individually. Of the athletes who ran all the way to Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco, only Melissa Arima, Haley Theriault and Eric Voellger are returning to the Panthers.

On the girls side, the

team has filled with new athletes, and coach Andy Foster said he expected a fun season.

“The boys have a lot of returners that can fare pretty darn well this year,” Foster said. “Jacob Bohl, Tyler Free, Ryan Engledow and Eric Voellger are all returners that made it to districts last year. We also have a lot of newcomers that will give challenge to the varsity spots.”

The boys have sent indi-vidual runners to state, but have never qualified as a team. Team qualification is a goal of theirs for the sea-son, Foster said.

The boys and girls team will run in the Capital High School Invitational in Olympia Saturday.

SwimmingThe pool is looking more

crowded, but the Bonney Lake High School girls swimming team isn’t com-plaining. The Panthers have doubled their size to 32 members and coach Ruth Conrad hopes to dive deeper into postseason.

“We did not win a meet last season, though all three relays qualified for dis-tricts and two individuals

made it as well,” Conrad said. “Expectations are to win some meets, qualify all relays and many individu-als into districts. And hope-fully move on to state!”

According to Conrad, returning varsity swimmers to watch are Ashley Yandt, Emily Romano, Natasha Pedersen, diver Kaicee Fant, Kaylee Fletcher and Michelle Limanni. Strong newcomers are Kailah O’Brien, Rachel Hansen, Maddie Vendoloski and Sammi McCurley.

The Panthers will swim against Lakes High School Thursday in the Sumner pool.

Seahawks honor Hornets’ Stinson

By Kevin HansonSenior Writer

The Enumclaw High Hornets scored a pair of first-half touchdowns, survived a slight scare in the late going and tacked on a last-minute TD to claim a 23-6 vic-tory in the Battle of the Bridge.

The again-annual, nonleague tussle against neighboring White River High was played Friday night on the natural grass surface of historic Sheets Field in downtown Buckley.

Enumclaw first hit the scoreboard with 5:27 remaining in the opening quarter when Mauricio Portillo slashed into the end zone from six yards out. EHS had landed in easy scoring posi-tion after Trey Rodarte took a short pass from quarterback Peter Norby and turned it into a big gain.

It was 7-0 in Enumclaw’s favor after Garrett Berquist tacked on the extra-point kick.

With four minutes remaining in the first half, Norby and Rodarte teamed up on a pretty pass play that covered 55 yards and accounted for EHS’s second touchdown of the night.

Two additional points went

Enumclaw’s way in the fourth frame when a White River punt attempt went awry. A high snap resulted in a safety and a 16-0 EHS lead.

White River made things a bit inter-esting when Sean Hayes completed three straight passes, the final one resulting in a short touchdown strike to Dustin France with 7:04 on the

game clock. Looking to cut the lead to a manageable eight points, White River attempted a two-point conver-sion, which failed.

Enumclaw’s final TD came when Norby zipped around the right side with 45 seconds remaining to be played. Garrett Berquist added the PAT to account for the final score.

strong swimmers last year but Powers said with a lot of hard work, she expects to see the girls return to top 10 in state.

Returning to the team is powerhouse Madison Munger for her senior year. Munger has been state cham-pion in individual events for two of the past three years. She was state cham-pion in the 200 individual medley her freshman year. In her sophomore year she was state champion in the 200 freestyle, taking down a 35 year old record in the process. Last year she placed second in the 200 IM and third in the 100 fly. She was also part of the 200 medley relay that brought home the gold. Looking into her senior season, Munger will focus on swimming the 200 freestyle and 100 fly at state. She hopes to begin her college career swimming for a school in California next year.

Alicia Ditty is another strong senior swimmer this year, said Powers. During her junior year, Ditty was part of the 200 medley relay that beat the school record en route to becoming state champion.

Ditty plans on working hard this year to improve her plac-ing at state from last year’s twelfth place in the 200 IM and making finals in the 100 backstroke.

There are several new faces on the team this year with a roster of 30 students. Powers is expecting strong perfor-mances from freshman Michaelann Wilson; sopho-mores Petria Russell, Katie Korbuszewski, and Sami Baxley; junior Iliana Kaiser; and senior Kristin Easterly.

Powers said what she enjoys most about coaching is the opportunity to take fresh, talented individuals and help them realize what they are capable of. She hopes the stu-dents will learn to appreciate team commitment and goal setting during their time as Spartan swimmers.

GolfA youthful group of

Sumner golfers will be com-peting for first year coach Jay Johnston this season.

Johnston said, “I have very high expectations for this young but very talented group.”

The team does not have

any seniors on the roster, but skills are high.

Leading the boys team are Conner Smith, Riley Bruil and Johnny Staley.

The coach expects all three to be competitive throughout the season.

On the girls team Haley Walenceus and senior Tianna Munroe will be a solid core on the team.

Also senior Samantha Walsh is expected to play well for the team.

The boys roster is Smith, Bruil , Staley, Cole Rommel, Matthew Stevens, Alec Esterbrook, Drew Wehmer, Brinley Vaughan, Jake Lemke, Perry Hubbard, Alec Buckley and Preston Fullington.

The girls roster is Walenceus, Munroe, Claire Selmer, Ward, Walsh, Kristen Immel, and Rachael Suth

TennisSumner tennis is working

hard on the court for 2013 South Puget Sound League 2A season.

Coach Chris Heacox, entering his ninth year at the helm, is leading a competitive team of boys.

“I expect our team to again be very competitive,” Heacox

said. “We lost two seniors last year, one that was a first team all league player and state competitor. We do return two other players who were voted first team all league – Zak Landers, junior, singles, and Brandon Walsh, senior, doubles.”

Rounding out the top four for Sumner is senior Cody Jagodinski and freshman Zaylan Jacobsen.

“All of them will see time at singles and first doubles,” Heacox said. “Our second and third doubles are also extremely strong. I’m real excited to see our kids com-pete this year. We should be very strong at every position in the lineup.”

Heacox said the best aspect of coaching is, “getting to know the kids, helping them improve and growing the game of tennis.”

Cross CountryThe Spartans cross coun-

try runners are training for the distance as the 2013 South Puget Sound League 2A season opens.

Last season the girls team went 7-0 and after the sub-district meet won the 2A SPSL league title. The boys were 6-1 with the only league

loss to White River. They were the 2A West Central District champions.

Coach Kristin Chapman said by email, “We don’t have a lot of returners on the girls’ side, but we do expect to have a strong season finishing somewhere near the top of the pack. This is the strongest our boys program has been at the start of a season due to a number of returners and I anticipate something similar to last year, finishing in the top group of teams within the league.”

For the girls, senior Abi Hensler is a four-year veteran who won the 2012 2A Athlete of the Year award in cross country.

Senior Amanda Riley and sophomore Bailey Thomsen are also returners who are great leaders, work incredibly hard and will have successful seasons.

For the boys, Chapman said senior Arturo Perez is another four-year veteran “who is incredibly driven and talented and is one of our team captains.”

Chapman said sophomore Nate Weber, juniors Jordan Landes, Thomas Oliver and senior Zach Traufler round out the returning group of varsity runners who were a

part of the district champi-onship team.

SoccerThe Spartan girls soccer

tradition is continuing with another top team.

Coach Robi Turley lead the team to a state champion-ship last season with a 21-0-0 record. In her ninth year on the sidelines, she has high expectations for this season.

“We expect to always be competitive in our league and beyond each year,” Turley said. “This is what makes our program special. We have been to state seven of eight years at SHS.”

Leading the purple charge is midfielder Brooke Lancaster, a junior, who has committed to Seattle Pacific University. She was first team all league last season.

Goalie Jamie Lange was also first team all league last season, the league goalie and second team all state. She did not give up a goal all season.

Alyssa Murray and Dacia Alexander, both junior mid-fielders earned first team all league honors and will be running the pitch at full speed for the Spartans.

The Spartans found the right formula to kick off the football season – a 49-14 win over Auburn Mountainview execut-ed on the ground and through the air.

Sumner put it in high gear in the first quarter and never looked back.

The Spartans scored two touchdowns in the first frame and racked up 21 more in the second.

Coach Keith Ross said by email, “We wanted to wear them down with our rushing attack. We rushed for 369 yards.”

Ross said his offensive line did a great job as did the defense.

“(We) held them to 16 rushing and 159 total (yards), “ Ross said. “Austin Ford, Brandon Tulieapa and Jace Johnson played stellar pass defense. We had a

game plan and we execut-ed it to perfection.”

The Spartans displayed a balanced ground and air game on offense. Sumner quar terback Chase Torgison engineered an effective passing attack, throwing 8-13 for 97 yards, one pick and two passing touchdowns.

DeJon Lynch rushed for 179 and four touchdowns. Brandon Tuilaepa ran for 123 yards

Teen fiction is even more popular because this is the generation of technol-ogy. Print publications are dropping off the planet and readers should be worried.

The magical prop-erty about print books is you can share them with friends and family, you don’t have to charge them, you can feel the texture of the cover and paper, and you always know you can relive the enchanting tale. That novel will be for-ever yours, sitting on your shelf and maybe one day be passed down to your kids to get that enjoyable old book aroma.

I asked a friend what the best thing about a pa-perback or hardback is and she told me, “for me holding the book makes it more realistic, like I can emerge myself in the book and see the characters in the actual scene.”

My take as a writer is that I can become ab-sorbed in the book while holding it and I don’t have to worry about a dying battery. The emotions of the characters are the next thing that get me and by holding the publication, like the quote above, you can see the characters in the scene. When a writer is good enough they can make you feel so emotion-ally attached, you are right there with them.

I asked another friend

if they liked print books or e-books and they ex-plained this, “Print books. I haven’t read many e-book but print is easier on my eyes and I like to actually hold the real thing if that makes sense. Like flipping through the actual story, I guess flipping through the pages of a book because you’re excited about what is next in the adventure of the book you’re reading. You’re physically turning it instead of virtually.”

What will youths be missing if they don’t have print books? They will miss the turning of the pages, like said in the above quote, or hold-ing the book even. The smoothness of the cover or even that “new book smell” won’t be enjoyed anymore by someone who has never experienced this.

I asked one of my friends this same question and she said, “I’ve gotten a few of my books signed by the author and you can’t do that with e-books!”

I agree completely. A digital signature isn’t the same as a real signature in a book and what about first edition copies? Those can’t be sold through digi-tal format.

“The experience of the smells texture and even older stories that may never hit e-books...just the whole sense the book has to offer,” replied another person.

I asked seven people if they preferred e-books, print books or both. Five

preferred print, one e-book, and one both – 71 percent preferred print books. This was only out of seven people though and the sales in e-books have gone through the roof. I asked people between the ages 16 to 36 and the two 16-year-olds voted print.

A friend told me when talking about her favorite part of print books, “We can all click a button, but to physically turn the page is to become a part of the book.”

Print books are mag-nificent parts of history and wonderful pieces of art. It takes someone who can weave words together, empty their souls (maybe even without showing what’s wrong) and turn-ing characters into lovable and unforgettable roles that will be in the minds of people for years to come, all bound in the pages of a book.

Washington State Archives staff saved more than 700 documents from flood damage this week, according to the Secretary of State’s From Our Corner blog.

On Thursday, South Sound rainstorms brought a surprise f lood at the State Records Center in Tumwater. A two-inch

valve block left over from pressure testing of the center’s pipes caused a trough and several pipes to fill with water and even-tually overflow down building walls. The water landed directly onto shelves holding cardboard boxes full of state records.

Beautify Bonney Lake, the annual volunteer campaign to improve various locations around the city, will hold its 10th annual event Sept. 21. Five hundred to 700 volun-teers are expected.

The organizers identify at least 20 project sites each year. Much of the current appearance of Ascent Park is due to improvements made by Beautify volunteers.

In 2013, projects include planting rhododendrons in Allan Yorke Park, clear-ing overgrowth near the

senior center and weeding Cedarview Park. A full list of sites and projects can be found on the Beautify Bonney Lake webpage.

Volunteer groups include the Bonney Lake High School athletics depart-ment, the Lions Club, Boy Scouts and Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; but everyone is welcomed to help. All volunteers will meet at the Bonney Lake Park and Ride at 8:30 a.m. to receive assigned work locations. Helpers are asked to submit a group roster and liability waiver online, or mail a copy to Beautify Bonney Lake at:

PO Box 7431Bonney Lake, WA 98391

This year’s event has 47 sponsors, including Home Depot, Dickey’s Barbecue Pit and Harborstone Credit Union.

Every adult should be aware of the poten-tial disasters where they live and also have plans in place to deal with them, but senior citizens in particular can be more vulner-able and may need more help planning.

The following guide covers all the main topics to help you prepare for yourself or a family member.

1 – Assess the common risks near your home

This region may not be home to hurri-canes, but isolated areas can flood, wooded areas can turn to wildfires and, or course, the threat of an earthquake always exists.

2 – Know your local resourcesKeep a list of contact information

for reference:Local Emergency Management Office

County Law EnforcementCounty Public Safety Fire/RescueState, County and City/Town

GovernmentLocal HospitalsLocal UtilitiesLocal American Red CrossLocal TV StationsLocal Radio StationsYour Property Insurance AgentMedical Transportation CompaniesFor more tips and further information

on local risks and relief, the FEMA website at ready.gov is a great resource.

3 - Prepare an emergency plan for the relevant potential disasters

In some cases, senior citizens may need to shelter themselves within their own

homes. If the air outside is contaminated, it may be necessary to remain indoors. It is a good idea to pre-cut plastic sheeting, in case the doors, windows and vents need to be covered.

The nearest evacuation/community cen-ters should be located in advance. Senior citizens should consider using these plac-es as drop-off or meeting locations with friends and family if such an event occurs.

4 – Establish a Personal Support Network

If possible, senior citizens with cell phones should become familiar with text messaging. If there is an emergency, mak-ing calls is often unreliable, and this is the best way to communicate as texts can make it through in a matter of seconds or

a few minutes if communication lines are extremely busy.

People who are in each other’s support networks should let one another know when they leave town.

5 – Have an emergency kit and important documents

A first-aid kit is only the beginning, as each person should have food, drinking water, and regular medicines on hand and ready to go. Many people also neglect to make sure they have access to important documents and account numbers.

Putting together an Emergency KitWater (minimum one gallon per person

per day)

Seniors must be prepared for emergencies

See PREPARE, Page 17

When the challenges associated with the aging process require a senior to consider changing his or her living situation, it can be a stressful and confus-

ing time for all involved. However, there are a great number of potential options, and assisted living is an increasingly popular choice, because it combines

the best aspects of inde-pendence, community, ser-vices, and affordability.

From seniors who require help with a few weekly tasks, to those who need

regular medical monitor-ing and daily assistance, the assisted living option can be an appealing one.

Maximum independence is

maintainedPerhaps the most sig-

nificant benefit of assisted living is that each resi-dent may live as indepen-dently as they are able. These communities pro-vide health monitoring and assisted living services as needed but for a fully func-tioning senior it can be just like living in a private apart-ment or condominium.

It’s the best of both worlds, since each resi-dent has access to nursing advice and assistance, pre-pared food, transportation, housekeeping and commu-nity activities, but most of this is optional. Even so, the knowledge that these services are available, helps lessen the stress of the tran-sition for both the resident and his or her family.

Care can adjust to each resident’s needs

The majority of assisted living communities offer scaled pricing for health and lifestyle services. This means that a new resident, who requires very little help with day to day living, can move in at a modest monthly cost. Then, as the need or preference for addi-tional services arises, incre-mental fees are added for those additional services once they are provided.

By offering varying lev-els of care and services, an assisted living community can be an affordable and efficient choice for more independent seniors. Then,

the resident can remain in the same home as their need for assistance increas-es. Of course, moving is stressful, so it’s a wonder-ful benefit for a senior to be able to remain in the environment that they call home.

Social benefitsLoneliness is a real

problem for many senior citizens. Isolation can lead to depression and one of the most obvious benefits of an assisted living com-munity is the opportunity for social interaction. Each community offers a variety of activities, outings, and events, allowing each resi-dent can choose the ones that they prefer.

Most assisted living com-munities also offer a com-munity center or common-use area plus a dining room, so even when there are no planned activities, the resi-dents can come together for a chat or a meal. Since most residents are in a similar age group, making friends is far easier than when liv-ing elsewhere in an all-ages community. Nutrition and fitness made easy

The process of cook-ing and serving healthy meals can be quite a task

for seniors living on their own. From shopping and preparing the meal to serving and cleaning up, insuring adequate daily nutrition can be nearly a full-time job for a senior. At an assisted living com-munity, residents typically have access to two or three cooked meals daily, pre-pared with a senior’s nutri-tional needs in mind and normally included in the monthly fees.

Additionally, seniors living on their own often neglect exercise and other beneficial physical activi-ties. An assisted living community provides facili-ties and scheduled exercise classes for all residents. So joining in is easy. The fitness classes are geared toward seniors, so the level of exertion is appropriate for the age-range. Making the exercise regiment a group activity with sym-pathetic, supportive help from the coordinators, cre-ates an enjoyable stress-free health promoting activity for all residents.

Safety and securityAn important benefit

provided by the assisted liv-ing community is a level of safety and security that isn’t possible when living alone. Many residents will move into an assisted living com-munity because certain normal tasks have become difficult. There is the added benefit that if the senior falls or has another medi-cal or personal emergency, someone is always available on property to help imme-diately.

Additionally, assisted living communities provide the security of 24-hour staff. Visitors to the communi-ties typically are required to sign-in and most commu-nities have security systems to monitor hallways and common areas. Living in a secure environment with a dedicated staff on hand allows the family to rest easy knowing that someone is always there to help.

following items:Extra glassesHearing aidsHearing aid batteriesCollapsible canePet foodDepending on what spe-

cific emergencies occur in an area, senior citizens could include additional

preparation items. For instance, if the area has a risk of blizzards, the kit should include a knit hat and gloves; if the area risks hurricanes, the kit should hold rain ponchos and umbrellas.

Preparing important documents

In case of emergency, senior citizens should have photocopies of important documents handy. These should be kept safe in a waterproof container or folder.

This packet should include copies of:

Birth certificatesInsurance policiesMedicare cardsFinancial formsPassportState identificationFamily recordsDeedsWillsSocial security numberMedical recordsBank account informa-

tionTax recordsIf you are preparing for

a senior relative, make sure you also have a folder con-taining your own photo-copies of all of the above.

6 – Make plans for pets as well

You should assume that if you are being evacuated that your pet will be com-ing with you. If you live in an area that can flood, it would be wise to con-sider where you might ride the storm out, whether it’s a family members place in another area, or a pet-friendly hotel in a safer locale.

7 – Don’t be taken advantage of

Remember to be very cautious of any phone calls or emails that solicit finan-cial donations. Seniors in particular have increasing-ly become targets of scams. Here’s one suggested reply if you are faced with such a situation, “I am donating directly to the Red Cross, my church or other repu-table organization.”

8 – Social Security & Other Payments

If a senior citizen receives Social Security, other reg-ular payments or with-drawals from retirement accounts, consider having them paid electronically. This can help to ensure that payments continue to

provide a steady income should you not be able to return home to receive mailed payments.

Social Security direct deposits can be initiated by calling 1-800-333-1795, or visiting godirect.org.

135 Je� erson Ave & Hwy 410 - BUCKLEY (360)761-7267(253)770-3661 SOUTH HILL PUYALLUP 9am-6pm

A third Mariachi Alegre Mexican Restaurant and Cantina opened its doors for business Aug. 26 in Buckley.

Ruben Rodriguez and Jose Rodriguez debuted their first family-owned, family-friend-ly restaurant 10 years ago in Federal Way. That venue has closed, but they have since opened restaurants in Yelm, Rochester and now Buckley.

The local Mariachi is at 29401 State Route 410, a

highly-visible highway loca-tion. Operating hours are 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday; 11 a.m. to

midnight Friday; and 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. The restaurant can be reached at 360-761-7329

and information is available at www.mariachialegre.net..

Aside from the traditional menu offerings – burritos, enchiladas, seafood, fajitas, carne asada and chicken dish-es – the owners have mounted multiple televisions in the bar area for sports viewing and hope to install a fresh tor-tilla machine in the lobby. Additionally, their goal is to book mariachi bands to play on special occasions.

Mariachi Alegre opens in BuckleyCourtney Forthuber

decided to open her own business, Heavenly Hands, while doing the 24-day challenge and working out at Doxsa in Buckley. While helping a friend stretch, someone else pointed out Forthuber seemed to know what she was doing. In fact, she did, having recently graduated from Cortiva Institute.

“There isn’t anything like being able to bring people back to feeling what is considered their normal feeling,” Forthuber said, noting that she is trained in deep tissue, Swedish, trigger points and preg-nancy massage.

She stresses that health, fitness and well being are the three key ingredients to living a long, healthy life.

ers were at work, allowing them to minimize dam-age,” Secretary blogger Brian Zylstra wrote.

The documents did not come out unscathed, but they will no longer be lost. Archives staff cleared water and organized boxes from least to most dam-aged. Severely damaged boxes of records were taken to a Puyallup facility for freeze-drying.

him — he can see what they’re doing right, what they can improve and help them out just as if he were here. Hey, play something for us Andrew.”

Andrew plays a brief tune on his keyboard before signing off.

“And that’s basically how it works,” Chapin said.

Chapin is the founder of Pro Music Academy, a pri-vate instrument, voice and songwriting lesson service out of Nashville, Tenn. He is also a professional drum-mer and guitarist who has played with acts like Tait,

Ben Folds and DC Talk. Higley, too, has played with Ben Folds, and everyone on the Academy’s teaching ros-

ter has professional credits to their name. Instructors have played with acts like Carrie Underwood,

Whitesnake and Lenny Kravitz; one has composed music for Nickelodeon and the Discovery Channel, and yet another was a final-ist on American Idol.

For the past year, Chapin’s school has experimented with remote lessons via Skype to connect instruc-tors to students working from home, whether home is in Nashville or far-flung locations like Los Angeles or Seattle. So far, the pro-gram has enjoyed a 100 per-cent student retention rate, he said. Michelle’s Studio of Dance is the Academy’s first satellite studio, a place students can go if they don’t have their own instrument or equipment to Skype from home.

Dance studio owner Michelle Gunn met Chapin after her family relocated to Tennessee last year.

“My son has been work-ing with him specifically for songwriting,” Gunn said. “We just got to chatting one day about his vision for sat-ellites all over the country. I

encouraged him to go for it … I told him I have a com-mercial studio in Bonney Lake. I thought that would be great.”

One of her son’s instruc-tors is Garrett Goodwin, a drummer who works with Carrie Underwood. Gunn said it’s motivating for her son to work with someone who regularly brings his talents to venues like the Grand Ole Opry and CMA Music Festival.

Chapin said the Skype lessons were a result of a 3 a.m. idea, which came to him while on tour with Ben Folds. When it came time to find instructors, every-one he approached was receptive.

“I’ve toured for 18 years and met plenty of other professional musicians, so I just went through my phone list from Sheryl Crow to whomever,” he said. “Not one person said no.

“The thing is, everyone in the business had help getting to where they are. So for us now to give back

to kids and adults who want to learn, it’s just a nat-ural step.”

The satellite studio began its soft opening Sept. 2, and is offering discounts on monthly lesson pack-ages as interest ramps up. Pro Music Academy offers lessons in drums, vocals, guitar, piano and keyboard, bass, mandolin, other string instruments and songwrit-ing. More information can be found at www.promusi-cacademy.com.

Michelle’s Studio of Dance is located at 8708 188th Avenue East in Bonney Lake.

You can get more gardening tips by watching Marianne Binetti’s cooking/gardening show “Dig In Seattle” that airs at 7:30 a.m. Sundays on channel 10 (JOE TV) or watch anytime at www.diginseattle.com The TV show will end this month for the winter, but return in February with more garden and cooking ideas.

The second week of September is a good time for some garden math. Divide and then multiply your perennials now for maxi-mum return on your ener-gy investment. Iris, daylil-ies, phlox, hosta, brunnera and other summer bloom-ers can be dug from the ground and split apart with a shovel or ax. Some peren-nials like the shade-loving astilbe can be broken apart with your hands, replant-ing the young side shoots and discarding any inner or middle sections of the roots that look dark and damaged. The secret to a successful transplant oper-ation is to do the dirty deed on a cloudy or wet day or at least wait until the cool evening hours. Many plant roots have a vampire quali-ty and it is painful for them to be exposed to bright sun-light.

Q. If I plant let-tuce seeds in

September, can I harvest the leaves for fresh salads all winter? I put in a first garden this past spring and had good luck with beans, tomatoes, cabbage and cucumbers. I followed your advice and built a raised bed and filled it with a mix of topsoil and compost. Now I want to keep grow-ing! T.R., Puyallup

A. Yes - just grow for it. You can

plant the seeds of lettuce, Swiss Chard, cabbage and onions now and if you protect the seedlings from the coming cold with a cold frame or hoop house you can be eating from your garden and enjoying your salad days almost year-round. A hoop house is a removable structure made from “hoops” – usu-ally bent plastic PVC pipes attached to the side of a raised bed using brack-ets. Then a sheet of plastic is draped over the hoops so it does not touch the plants and still allows air circulation. You can also purchase hoop houses or cold frames at garden and home stores now. Fall is for planting, so dig in.

Q. We have a large apple tree and

there is no way we can eat all the apples. Many end up falling to the ground and attracting wasps. I think we need to clean them up or they will spread disease. My husband says the fallen fruit adds nutrients and organic matter to the soil. Who is correct? P., email

A. You both have a point,

but you’re missing an opportunity. Extra fruit and garden produce can be donated to your local food bank and apples are especially good for families that struggle to find food to fill a lunch box. Make an extra

effort to deliver your garden produce to a food bank clean and in good condition so you don’t create extra work for the food bank volunteers. You may also want to ask about “gleaning” opportuni-ties. This is when commu-nity groups volunteer to har-vest crops that have already been picked over or to collect

fruit from homeowners like you that can no longer eat or collect the fruit themselves.

Q. I have heard you speak about using

sedum Autumn Joy for long-lasting color in gar-dens like mine with poor soil – but at the nursery I

also see sedum. Brilliant with deep rose blooms and one with bright pink flowers called Neon. Are these just as tough as the sedum you recommend? They are much more colorful, but I am a very laid back gardener and don’t want to kill any more plants. N.M., Olympia

A. I think you should load up a cart with

any sedum that catches your eye and find out what sur-vives for you. Consider any plant that doesn’t survive a composting opportunity and a learning experience. In the grand scheme of things investing in plants is an inex-pensive gamble as you could hit the jackpot and stumble upon the perfect perennial that loves your site conditions and thrives on the care you give it. When that happens, consider it your signature or

theme plant and use it again in several more locations. By repeating a specific plant in your landscape you allow the eye to move easily around the view creating a sooth-ing scene. Just remember to loosen the soil all around the area where you add sedums and succulents to encourage good drainage. Do not fill a new planting hole for sedums with compost in the bottom. It is the winter rains that rot many plants rather than the winter cold that kills them in western Washington.

Q. What is the brilliant red shrub that I see

along the interstate and even in some parking lot planting strips? It has small leaves and can be really wide but it is not a tree shape. Also, what grow-ing conditions does it need? S.B., Kent

A. Sounds like the Burning Bush or

Euonymus alatus. This tough, flat-topped shrub has corky ridges on the branches but

otherwise fades into the back-ground until the fiery fall dis-play of brilliant red foliage. Easy to grow in well-drained soil, the biggest planting mis-take is not giving this shrub enough room. Even the ‘com-pacta’ or dwarf form will grow up to 10 feet wide and 6 feet tall. For the best fall performances do not give this euonymus too much to drink and make sure it grows in a sunny location. Add some low growing cotoneaster with bright red berries or plant a golden-leaved ginko or maple near the burning bush for a fire storm of intense autumn color.
