DESCRIPTION
February 24, 2012 edition of the Issaquah/Sammamish ReporterTRANSCRIPT
BY CELESTE [email protected]
Erinn White knew there was something wrong with her son when he was born, but
a diagnosis eluded doctors.William’s weight fell o� the charts, and at four months he still couldn’t hold up his head. Specialists prepared the family for the worst possibilities – it could be muscular dystrophy.
� e little boy spent a year in physical therapy before he could sit up. He turned two before taking his � rst steps. But as he progressed, Erinn’s fears melted into hope.
William still has what specialists call motor and speech delays. He’s clumsy on his feet and occasionally slurs a sentence, but the 4-year-old now romps around the playground with peers. A few weeks ago he
was even seen cutting in the slide line by climbing up a ladder.
William still doesn’t have a diagnosis, and so the White family can only guess where he’ll be 10 years from now. How-ever, early intervention made his ability to walk before preschool possible, Erinn said. “Even just the fact that we’re talking
about putting him in a kindergarten class feels wonderful.”
One force helping with William’s prog-ress is the Issaquah School District, which is required to provide education for children with disabilities from birth.
As a baby, William re-ceived services through Kindering, a Bellevue-based nonpro� t for disabled children. � e district paid some of the cost.
When William turned 3, he joined the district’s preschool pro-gram, designed for children with a range of challenges. � e program has 100 students spread across three schools.

Eastside Fire and Rescue will no lon-ger be sending out � re trucks to every medical call.
A new program will keep a medical technician 12 hours a day to handle non-emergency medical problems, which make up a tenth of EFR’s call volume.
� e move would free up � re crews to focus on heart attacks and house � res, said Greg Tryon, EFR’s deputy chief of operations.
As it is now, if � re� ghters respond to a non-emergency call and an emer-gency call comes in, they have decide whether to split the team or leave the patient. Under the new program, the Community Medical Technician would have responded to the � rst call.
� e program also will reduce wear and tare on expensive aid cars and � re engines, providing a cost incentive. � e CMTs use an SUV truck.
King County Public Health put forward $243,000 a year to pay for the one-year pilot program, plus money for new equipment. � e University of Washington also has an interest. It’s studying the CMT program as well as something similar in Woodinville.
It won’t require EFR to hire any new sta� , and will draw from about 60 � re� ghters who volunteered for the program.
Program frees � re� ghters from non-emergency medical calls

We create great smiles
Non-motorized water sports enthusiasts are expected to flock to Is-saquah this spring for the 2012 Northwest Paddling Festival.
The event, which takes place May 11-12 at Lake Sammamish State Park, will feature industry vendors, product demon-strations, kayak tours and more.
The Issaquah Chamber of Commerce estimates the festival will draw more than 1,000 visitors.
“Outdoor recreation activities like kayaking fit perfectly with what Issaquah has to offer so we are thrilled to have this event in our city,” said Nathan Perea, member-ship and tourism support manager.
The festival is expected to bring thousands of dol-lars in economic impact to
Issaquah’s economy.“The Northwest
Paddling Association members will deliver an event that will bring new visitors to Issaquah and overnight guests for our hotels,” said Philip Mor-ris, general manager of the Motel 6 and co-chair for the Issaquah Tourism Committee. “The associa-
tion has embraced local sponsorship and non profit participation and we look forward to hosting them.”
Locally-based Issaquah Paddle Sport/Kayak Academy helped recruit the festival to Issaquah. The event, which is in its second year, was held in West Seattle last year.

‘Race to Nowhere’ comes to Issaquah
Issaquah education groups are bringing “Race to Nowhere,” an award-winning docu-mentary about rising pressure on students, to the community March 1.
The film explores the high-stakes, high-pres-sure environment that has taken over children’s lives. The screening will be followed by a post-film panel.
The show starts at 6 p.m., at the Issaquah High School Performing Arts Center. Tickets are $10 online, and $15 at the door. The doors open at
5:30 p.m.The event is being
organized by Community Conversations, a net-work of Issaquah’s PTSA, district, teacher’s union and the Issaquah Schools Foundation.
Winning ticket sold at local store
Two lucky Washingto-nians won the biggest Hit 5 jackpot in state history and one of those winners purchased their ticket from an Issaquah retailer.
The other winning Hit 5 ticket was sold by an Arlington retailer.
The Hit 5 jackpot total was $730,000 so the two winners will be splitting it evenly, taking home $365,000 each.
Issaquah residents should check their tick-ets, state officials say.
The winner has 180 days to claim their prize. The winning numbers are 09-10-24-25-29.

Eastside Catholic Chief Financial Officer Kris Galvin is up for one of the more prestigious business awards in the region.
The third-year EC em-ployee is one of five nomi-nees in the running for The Puget Sound Business Jour-nal’s CFO of the Year for non-profit organizations.
“I am proud of how I contribute to the school’s success, but I also believe that its success is a major factor in my becoming a nominee,” said Galvin, not-ing the past few years the school has opened a new
campus in Sam-mamish, added a middle school and is attracting increased interest from fami-lies in the greater Eastside as being a top tier school.
As Eastside’s CFO, Gal-vin is responsible for the school’s finances, budgeting and accounting, technol-ogy, facilities and general administration.
Galvin is in the same category with Matt Hayes of
The Museum of Flight, Tim McLaughlin of SightLife, Amy Michael of FareStart and Diane Pietrowski of the Plymouth Housing Group.
“Kris Galvin’s selection as a Puget Sound Busi-ness Journal CFO of the Year finalist is a tremen-dous honor for our entire school,” said Sister Mary E. Tracy, president and head of Eastside Catholic. “Kris, in his role as CFO, is integral as a member of our executive team, in setting EC policy and in carrying out operations at all levels.”
The CFO awards ceremo-ny takes place Wednesday, March 7 at Benaroya Hall in Seattle.

BOND APPROVAL APPRECIATED
On behalf of the Board of Commissioners for King County Fire Protection District 10, I would like to take this oppor-tunity to thank the voters of the fi re district for supporting and successfully passing Proposition 1: Construct and Remodel Fire Stations and Acquire Firefi ght-ing and Life Saving Equipment proposal.
It was a diffi cult decision for the board to ask our neighbors for their approval of a revenue bond during these tough economic times. But, the need was there. The most important need was to relocate Station 78 to a more central location in May Valley to improve response times to a larger portion of the service area. In addition, there is a need to strengthen our volunteer stations in Maple Hills, Tiger Mountain, and Lake Joy to aid in accom-plishing their mission and attract more volunteers.
When the board considered the favorable bond market and construction climate, the need coupled nicely with opportunity.
The Board of Commission-ers appreciates the trust you have demonstrated in approving Proposition 1 and pledges to not squander that trust and to wisely steward these funds to provide you the best value for your emer-
gency service dollar.Rick Gaines, Fire District 10 Commissioner
VOTE WRONGI fi nd it reprehensible that one
legislator is allowed to squelch the will of the majority. Sen. Rosemary McAuliffe, chair of the Senate Education Committee, refused to allow a vote on charter schools/transformation zones, even though there were enough votes to pass the bill out of committee.
Whether we agree or do not agree on charter schools, don’t we all want democracy to reign in Olympia? I’m sorry that Sen. McAuliffe doesn’t like charter schools.
Something is very wrong with the leadership in Olympia. I applaud Sens. Steve Litzow and Rodney Tom for standing up to
such tactics.Janet Suppes, Bellevue
SAMMAMISH NIMBYSThe vocal NIMBY groups are
alive and well in Sammamish. When the builder that built the house you are now living in, where were you to throw out whatever “sticks to the wall” to save the trees, birds, wildlife, bugs etc. to stop progress? After all, it is your neighbors’ land and how would you feel if your neighbors turned on you when all you were doing is exercising your free right to sell land you owned?
If you really want to keep your “free” park/green space forever, do as we all do when we want something, just buy it.
Thomas E. Harsh, Sammamish
Apparently people in and around Seattle have millions of dol-lars stuffed in socks or under their mattresses. That’s the only conclusion we can draw about Seattle’s hoped-for NBA/
NHL stadium being talked up for that city’s Sodo District.The proposed stadium deal would have Seattle and King County
jointly sell $200 million in bonds for construction costs with team owners obligated to repay that money through ticket and concession sales, among other things. If revenue from those sales fall short, team owners would have to make up the difference.
Here, then is the problem: Are there millions of dollars a year not already being spent on some other discretionary activity that can go to basketball or hockey? If so, great. If not, that means for every dollar spent at the NBA/NHL stadium, a dollar isn’t being spent else-where. And those dollars likely will be taken from local activities. Around here, think restaurants and the Village Theatre.
There’s also the possibility that dollars spent on an NBA or NHL game will just be money shifted from the Mariners, Seahawks, Sounders or Huskies.
We would like to see professional basketball and hockey in this area. The sports are entertaining and can boost the region’s profi le.
But this is only worthwhile if adding something new doesn’t hurt what’s here already. We already have millions invested in sports teams and entertainment options. They deserve our consideration, too.
THUMBS UP, THUMBS DOWN
For Pierce County Detective Ed Troyer and Sheriff Paul Pastor who used their own money and funds from Crime Stoppers Tacoma-Pierce County to buy the plots adjacent
to Charlie and Braden Powell’s burial site in order to prohibit Josh Powell from being buried next to the children he murdered.
Also, a Thumbs Up for 97.3 KIRO FM’s “Ron and Don Show” for rallying listeners to reimburse the two law enforcement offi cers and Crime Stoppers.
Thumbs Down For an uncle and aunt of Josh Powell who blamed “various questionable government agencies’ practices, religious bias, the Internet kangaroo courts, and
sensationalized news media” for Powell’s killing of his children. Really? Let’s put the blame where it belongs – on an evil man who committed an evil act.
� umbs Up for Amanda Knox who has a book deal reported-ly worth $4 million. HarperCollins, the book’s publisher said “Knox will give a full and un� inching account of the events
that led to her arrest in Perugia and her struggles with the complexi-ties of the Italian judicial system.” “Struggles” are right. Nothing can replace her four years of unjusti� ed imprisonment in an Italian jail. But $4 million is a nice way to try to get over that travesty.

WANNA BET?Millions for basketball and hockey could take money from local scene
LETTERSEDITORIAL
At � rst, I was daringly skep-tical of Facebook.
� e whole idea of “social media” seemed at the time disconnected and impersonal, far more media than social.
But managing my � rst “career-job,” starting to lay the foundation for a family and a decreasing a� nity for the nightlife has le� me swapping more evenings on the town for evenings on my couch.
And with plenty of time to rediscover Facebook.
A� er a short-lived � irtation around the time the network launched in 2004, I was out of the loop until a couple of years ago. When I came back, it was like Christmas morning.
Initially, an email address ending in “.edu” was required for
� e Social Network. I reentered the fold in 2010 delighted to � nd everyone and their mother (and mine, a� er I recently relented to her requests) was now part of the Facebook generation.
According to Facebook’s own statistics, the network had 845 million monthly active users and 483 million daily active users at the end of December 2011. Around 80 percent of those come from outside the U.S. and Canada.
Sure it was fun catching up with people from high school and my childhood who had moved on to colleges and were pursuing various career paths. But college students show only a thin slice of the cross-section of society and for the most part have a shared set of experiences.
Not the case once the exclusiv-ity is removed from the equation.
Now, a quick scroll of the news feed o� ers more entertainment than I could have ever imagined when only students populated my friends list.
What ever happened to that guy who was dismissed from the football team for repeated disci-plinary problems and le� school? Playing in the NFL, waving hun-dred dollar bill fans and sharing rap mixtapes, of course.
� e kid who used to crack rac-ist jokes in seventh grade? Still in pursuit of a four-year degree, four years a� er the “chink” writing this column � nished his.
From stalking exes to recon-necting with that in� uential teacher or coach, from hundreds of birthday wishes and con-dolences to memes with furry animals, Facebook continues to change the way we interact and view relationships.
And all from the comfort of the couch.

The program is based at EFR’s headquarters in Issaquah on Newport Way. The CMT would respond to calls within a 15 minute drive from that location. It would include Issaquah, most of Sammamish and parts of North Bend.
The types of calls CMTs would take are geared more
toward social service needs. A technician might respond to a drunk who needs help sobering. If an elderly man falls, isn’t injured but needs help getting up, a techni-cian would respond and then maybe see if there was a community service that could help prevent future falls.
“The purpose is to create a more efficient emergency response system by sending right people to the right call,” Tryon said.

PCC and the Burke Museum present “Hungry Planet”
PCC is partnering with the Burke
Museum of Natural History and
Culture to present “Hungry Planet:
What the World Eats.” Hungry
Planet examines how people from
different countries and cultures
feed their families. The exhibit
also features “Salish Bounty:
Traditional Native American Foods
of Puget Sound,” which explores
5,000 years of traditional tribal
diets, as well as the revitalization
of native food traditions. The
exhibit currently is on display and
runs through June 10. During
that time, PCC Cooks will provide
weekend tastings, PCC staff
will offer nutrition lectures and
programs on food production
and distribution, and more. For a
full list of dates and details, visit
pccnaturalmarkets/r/1194.
Going vegetarian one meal or more each week can improve your personal health and the health of the planet by reducing the amount of energy and finite resources farmers use to raise livestock. Even better, going meatless weekly also can taste great with the help of hearty recipes that don’t skimp on flavor.
Why Monday? Leading public health schools including Johns Hopkins, Syracuse and Columbia say Monday is the best day each week for a fresh start, to form and stick with healthy new habits.
Why meatless? Those same public health schools say going meatless even once a week may help reduce your risk of chronic conditions like cancer, heart disease, diabetes and obesity. Reducing demand for meat also can help conserve precious resources such as the fossil fuel to operate all the machinery used to grow livestock feed and the fresh water used to irrigate all those crops. When you do eat beef or lamb, they strongly recommend meat from
grass-fed herds, free of artificial hormones and raised on pasture rather than in feedlots.
Kick off your Meatless Mondays with this delicious recipe for Black Bean and Yam Quesadillas. Then find even more hearty vegetarian recipes in PCC’s Recipe Database: pccnaturalmarkets.com/pcc/recipes/taste/meatless-mondays You might be surprised how delicious beans, grains, tempeh and other meat alternatives can be.
Meatless Monday: a growing movementBlack Bean and Yam QuesadillaServes 1 (2 quesadillas)1 teaspoon olive oil, plus extra for spraying 1/2 cup finely chopped onion 1 clove garlic, finely chopped 1 teaspoon Mexican seasoning (available wherever bulk spices are sold) 2 teaspoons water 1 cup grated yam (about 1/2 medium yam) 1/4 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained Salt and pepper 2 corn or wheat tortillas 1/3 cup grated cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese Your favorite prepared salsa
Heat the oil in a medium, nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 3 minutes or until onion is soft. Add the seasoning and water and cook 1 more minute, stirring. Add the yam and beans, stir. Cover and cook for about 6 minutes until the yam is tender but not mushy. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a bowl.
Place tortilla in a skillet; spray with olive oil. Turn over and spray the other side. Add some of the mixture to half of the tortilla, top with some of the cheese and fold tortilla in half. Cook in a skillet on each side for about 2 minutes, until cheese melts and the filling is warm. Repeat with other tortilla. Serve with prepared salsa.

teacher Jackie Funk slips into a chair and begins a conver-sation with them. It’s social skills time.
“What do you think you’re going to learn at kindergar-ten?” she poses to the table.
“I don’t know,” says a straight-faced boy. He then sighs. “It’s going to be hard.”
About half the stu-dents in her classroom will enter kindergarten among typically develop-ing peers. Funk’s eyes are on the transition.
“� e demands on kids are so high,” she says. “It’s always learning to learn.”
When Cash Sorensen � rst came to Funk’s preschool, he couldn’t sit in a chair long enough to participate in circle time.
His parents didn’t learn about state-funded programs until he was 3. He had lost a couple years of early interven-tion, crucial to children with autism.
“Somehow he fell between the cracks,” said his father,
Mike.Now the 4-year old participates in groups, takes turns
with his peers and has made some progress talking. A quiet boy who sprints around the playground alone, he still has challenges ahead. His father hopes to see him become more verbal.
“It de� nitely is helping him, and I’m appreciative of it, most de� nitely,” Mike said.
Just before a song about Rudy the Rectangle, Cash stood up from his chair at circle time and placed his name in a good-morning book. Most students will learn to recognize their names and many will learn to write them.
“When you see the progress, it keeps you going,” Funk said.
A MATTER OF CIVIL RIGHTSDiane Roth was in the sixth grade when she � rst had the
opportunity to work with children with disabilities.A special-needs private school was using space on her
campus, and she volunteered. Roth met a girl with Down syndrome, and an instant fascination hooked her.
She’s now about to retire as the head of ISD’s Early Childhood Education, but there wasn’t such a program when she started teaching.
� at all changed a� er 1973 with a civil rights move-ment for the disabled. New federal laws took students from institutions and introduced them into the classroom. � e movement came with a mix of emotions for Roth, who saw both the opportunity and the challenges.
“I can remember feeling tremendously happy,” she said. “It was also scary being moved into a regular school.”
But as the teachers grappled with exactly how to write a program for special needs kids, their programs eventually became something much more than daycare.
In step with the movement, Issaquah decided that being in the same building wasn’t quite enough.
Struggling children need the opportunity to interact with typically developing kids, Roth said.
Funk’s classroom has two such children, called peer vol-unteers. At that age, children don’t discriminate, so there was little problem persuading the girls to interact with other classmates. � e community is so seamless, it can be di� cult at � rst to pick them out.
While kindergarten is the focus in Funk’s classroom, the measure of success varies per child. Each has a di� erent struggle and di� erent goals. It’s about making sure students are more prepared than they would have been.
“You never know what happens when they go out your door,” Funk said. “You just hope you did the best for them.”
Next week the Reporter Newspaper will focus on what ISD is doing to help prepare special needs students for work a� er graduation.

Edward Kim continued on his way to the career goal of eight individual titles, but it was Issaquah that � nished the highest of any KingCo school with a second place team total at the 4A state swim and dive championships.
Kim swam an Automatic All-American time of 1:38.32 in the � nals of the 200 free, nearly � ve seconds in front of second place � nisher Brendan Weiner.
He also picked up a championship and Automatic All-American time in the 100 backstroke, winning in 48.84 ahead of Logan Rysemus of Stadium.
Eastlake � nished second in the 400 free relay and Newport was fourth. Issaquah earned an eighth place � nish in the � nal race of the day.
� e Eagles, which � nished second in the team scoring behind champion Stadium, were led by the 100 free title of senior Brian Ruggles and the � rst place � nish in the 200 free relay.
A� er taking the top time in the preliminaries, Rugles held o� Sebastian Bury of Newport in the � nals by just a tenth of a second with a winning time of 47.39.
Eastlake’s Zach Alleva was third in the race in 48.32 and also earned an All-American consideration time of 58.06 in the 100 breaststroke, which he � nished second in.
In the 200 free relay, William Matsuda teamed with David Nam, freshman Gabe Florsheim and Ruggles to hold of Sta-dium and defending team champion Kamiak in 1:28.68.
Ruggles � nished just nine-tenths of a second behind the All-American consideration time of champion Chase Bublitz from Kentridge.
Max Levy of Skyline � nished just fractions of a point be-hind the champion from South Kitsap in the diving competi-tion. � e junior earned a 388.50 in the � nals.
Matsuda was sixth and Florsheim seventh in the 100 � y.� e Eagles 200 medley relay team � nished second with
Matsuda, Melody, Florsheim and Ruggles just ahead of an Eastlake group that consisted of Kim, Alleva, Jason Kroon and O’Neil.

Eastside Catholic freshman Matt Iwicki rebounded from a semi-� nal loss to Colton Tracy of Bonney Lake Saturday to take third place at 113 pounds in the 3A bracket at his � rst ever Mat Classic.
“I knew third as a freshman was good and I wanted the best possible outcome,” Iwicki said. “It was hard right a� er the match (against Tracy) but a� er a while I got back together.”
Iwicki pinned Christian Bagdadi of Everett and then earned a 10-0 win over Marcus Hartman from Camas to secure his spot in the semi� nals. One of the three freshman to begin the day in the 113 pound bracket in class 3A, the longtime club wrestler was the lone remaining freshman on the second day.
“I thought it was great that I would place in the top eight,” Iwicki said of his mindset entering the second day. “But I didn’t want to settle with that.”
Jou Stoutt lost in the � rst round at 195 pounds but won three straight matches, all by decision, to earn a spot in the third place match.
“I was pretty bummed,” Stoutt said of losing his � rst match of the tour-nament. “If you told me I would end up wrestling for third I would have told you that you were crazy.”
Stoutt was dropped in the third place match and � nished the tour-nament in fourth place, but that couldn’t stop the Crusaders from rel-
ishing in the most successful season in school history.
“It felt good to be in the top 20 teams and be one of the top teams in Metro,” Stoutt said. “It was great to see we were scoring more team points than other teams from the Eastside and that is a testament to how far our program has come. Our head coach had an excellent year and I’m glad it was my senior year.”
Eastlake’s Eric Harper reached the semi� nals before a shoulder injury cut short his match against eventual champion Sam Voigtlander of Mead and resulted in an injury defeat.
“I kind of went back and my shoul-der hit him and just went out,” Harper said. “We don’t really know what hap-pened but I couldn’t really move it or
anything. It just kind of went limp.” Despite doing so with essentially
one arm, Harper elected to take the mat for his next match against Garrett Autrey of Tahoma for a spot in the third place match.
“I had nothing to lose since it was the last tournament of the year,” Harper said of the choice to wrestle with the injury. “I wanted to get a chance to wrestle for third place.”
A� er being pinned by Autrey, Harper was unable to wrestle in the � � h place match and ended his tour-nament in sixth place for the Wolves.
“I’m hoping I can do better as a senior,” said Harper, who has � nished in sixth place in back-to-back sea-sons. “Hopefully I can win state next year.”

This is great news for your wallet if your furnace is over eight years old. Because yes, it’s absolutely true, you can actually replace your old (and probably very inefficient) furnace and air conditioner as a package for at least $2,159.00 less then you would have to pay at any other time.
Please allow me to explain. Every year, the months of January, February and March can “destroy” my business. I end up losing a ton of money during these “business destroyer” months and it can take me the remaining nine months to make up for them. I’m looking for the same thing to happen this year. That is why…
My Problem Is An Excellent Opportunity For YouI employ great people and I want to keep them working during these long hard months. That is why I’ve decided to give up trying to make a profit during the “business destroyer” months. If I can only minimize my losses during January, February and March, I will come out ahead of the other nine months.
Here’s how this (admittedly daring) offer came about: Every year, the big manufacturers of air conditioners have to guess how many to build to meet demand. Of course, they’re never exactly right. So, they always have some inventory that must hold over until next summer season. I went to one of these companies, York and contracted for the purchase of 36 premium air conditioners and furnaces in the four most popular sizes used in Seattle. And, because of the quantity and time of the year, I was able to buy them at drastically reduced, dirt cheap, “out of season” prices.
They are brand new 2012 models and they are NOT the seconds or “blems” or standard “builder” models. They are factory-fresh, premium air conditioners and furnaces and have full factory warranty.
Keep Reading To Learn How To Get A Furnace For PeanutsBy putting this furnace and air conditioner package together (then “jaw boning” the factory) and committing to a do-or-die purchase agreement of 36 systems. I was able to buy both the furnace and the air conditioner for less than anyone should have a right to pay!
So, if you buy one of these normal 36 new premium air conditioners (but only if one of the
four sizes I have will fit your house of course), I am “giving” you the furnace and all I ask is for the $541.00 in labor it costs to have your furnace installed.
Perfect Fit For Your HomeJust call me at (425) 562-5162 any time. I will come out and measure your home (and determine the availability of the proper size). Don’t forget, I only have 36 matched systems in four sizes. When they are gone, this remarkable offer ends also.
I will show you the “real world” price on the air conditioner that fits your home. Then, I will show you the substantial savings. And it will include all labor and installation materials. Nothing is left out.
What A Really Simple ConceptBy letting you win big now I will win at the end of the year. I’m betting that if I make you an offer that is “irresistible” (at least it should be if your furnace or air conditioner is over eight years old) and barely mark it up above the price I paid, I will accomplish two things:
1. I can pay my professional staff of six employees to work instead of paying them or not paying them to sit at home.
2. I will cover my rent, utilities, insurance and taxes in the “business destroyer” months.
If I can accomplish these two objectives, I will minimize my losses and the rest of the year, I can be a winner.
Absolutely No ObligationEven after I completely explain the installation, there is absolutely no obligation. If you decide you don’t want to take advantage of the spectacular savings, that’s okay. I will give you a surprising gift worth $50.00 because you are kind enough to read this letter and give me a chance to solve my challenge. I want you to think well of OutToday.com even if you don’t buy.
You Can Buy With NO CashYou don’t even have to pay me right away. I have set up a terrific bank rate financing plan. I even decided not to mark up
the interest rate like some companies do.
Consider this: if you decide to make monthly investments instead of paying cash, the entire amount of your payments might be more than offset by the savings on your utility bills. It’s like “having your cake and eating it too.” In some cases you can receive up to $1850.00 or more in tax credits and rebates.
Why This Offer Can’t LastYou must act before March 15th. Here are two reasons why:
1. I can only have nine of each of the four sizes. When all air conditioners are sold and all furnaces are “given” away in a particular size, that’s it. There are no more at this price.2. If I have any of the 36 systems left on March 15th (although I doubt I will), this offer still ends.
Here’s Why…The only reason I am making this virtually no-profit (for me) offer is because of the “business destroyer” months. My business always starts to improve in April and because furnaces cost me so little, I can sell them at 2010 prices next November and December and still come out ahead.
Give me a call now at: (425) 562-5162 and I will set an appointment for your no obligation survey.
