BY MEGAN CAMPBELLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

� e Washington State Patrol is looking for any witnesses to an Aug. 27 hit and run collision that ejected an Auburn couple from their motorcycle on Interstate 90 near Issaquah, according to Trooper Chris Webb.

� e male victim, 28, underwent surgery a� er su� ering a broken wrist, clavicle and ankle. He is still at Harborview Medical Center.

� e female victim, who turned 27 that day, su� ered a broken arm in three places. She was discharged from the hospital, but might have to undergo surgery.

It was her birthday request to go for a ride that night, Webb said in an email.

� e victims were traveling westbound in

the HOV lane around 9:35 p.m. near State Route 900 (around exit 15) when they were struck, according to a witness, by a ma-roon, mid-1990s vehicle, possibly a Honda or Toyota.

� e suspect struck the motorcycle while passing on the le� shoulder of the high-way; there should be damage to the right rear door or right rear quarter panel of the vehicle.

� e driver sped from the scene and was last seen going westbound on I-90 ap-proaching Bellevue.

State patrol detectives ask anyone with information to contact Detective Brody Ford at [email protected] or 425-401-7742.

State patrol seeks witness to hit and run collision near Issaquah

BY MEGAN CAMPBELLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Puget Sound Energy crews worked through the weekend and overnight to bring power back to areas a� ected by a Saturday, Aug. 29, wind storm. Still thou-sands remained without power by Monday, Aug. 31.

High winds and heavy rain caused power infra-structure to fail throughout the region, which kept more than 238,000 PSE customers without electric-ity Saturday, according to a PSE press release.

As of Monday at 6:30 a.m., the majority of the outages were isolated to

Skagit and Whatcom Coun-ties, still with about 34,000 customers without power.

� e company estimated most of the area in South King, Pierce and � urston Counties, a� ected by large outages were restored Mon-day morning.

Whatcom, Skagit and North King Counties’ power was restored by Tuesday morning.

King County adds service to Metro Route 200 to better serve the Issaquah HighlandsBY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

On August 26, King County Executive Dow Constantine sent his recommenda-tions to the county council regarding improvements to the King County Metro transit system.

Among the more than � ve-dozen ser-vice changes proposed by Constantine was a service extension to Metro Route 200 in Issaquah, in order to better serve the Is-saquah Highlands.

If approved by the county council, 200 would begin serving Swedish Medical Center’s Issaquah campus in March 2016. � e route would simultaneously cease service to Southeast Bush Street near Is-saquah High School under the proposal, in order to accomplish the extension without increasing the cost of the route.

� e proposal has been a priority for Swedish Issaquah’s Dr. Rayburn Lewis. Having worked previously in four hospi-tals in areas with greater urban density and infrastructure, he’s long known the bene� ts of public transit access for patients and health care employees alike.

“I’ve been chief executive here for a year and a half and one of the � rst things I did was ask folks at the city why there

wasn’t a bus stop at our doorstep," he said.

As they worked to see the proposal move forward, Lewis and Swedish Is-saquah o� cials worked with the mayor’s o� ce and Land Development Manager Lucy Sloman in her capacity as sta� liaison to the Urban Village Development Com-mission.

� e city, in turn, communicated the idea to King County Metro.

Route 200, a free-to-ride route, was ex-tended to the Highlands Park-and-Ride in June. It previously served the valley � oor exclusively.

“Both [the June extension and the cur-rent proposal] are giant leaps for Issaquah Highlands residents,” said Issaquah City Councilor Nina Milligan, a Highlands resident and the communications manager for the Highlands Council. “However, there is still a little gap that I hope — some day — will be � lled, connecting the High-lands and North Issaquah directly to Olde Town.”

� e King County Council is scheduled to discuss the public transit proposals over the coming weeks. Any changes approved by their vote will be implemented in March.

As soon as that happens, Swedish Is-saquah administrators plan to announce the new bus availability to sta� , Lewis said.

It has been everywhere in the news. It is back to school time, and media outlets are reminding parents to get their children immunized. Public health o� cials say that

vaccination rates are up across the nation and that fewer people are opting out. The national data also showed that just 1.7 percent of parents in 2014 sought exemptions from state vaccination requirements. Yet within our own enlightened state of Washington, the news isn’t so good. It is one of 11 states with vaccine exemp-tion rates above four percent; the fourth-highest rate of ex-emption in the nation. The Centers for Disease Control found that state exemption rates range from 0.1 percent in Missis-

sippi (which does not allow exemptions for religious or philosophical reasons) to 6.5 percent in Idaho. In order to protect the larger community, vaccination rates must reach 95 percent. Yes, some people cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons. But everyone else

needs to get with the program. KUOW reported that last year, public health o� cials found that just two-thirds of toddlers in Washington state were fully vaccinated by age 3. Another news report indicated that in Seattle, only 81 percent of eligible children have received a polio vaccine. Po-lio! It is unimaginable that such a terrible disease, declared eradicated in the Americas, could return. So far this year, 159 people in the United States got measles, including a handful in Washington state. Many were traced to the Disneyland outbreak. Of that number, 71 were unvaccinated or had an ‘unknown vaccination status’ (67). Twenty-nine of those unvaccinated were infants, who were still too young for the vaccines. Those 29 babies did not have any choice in the matter. They and their parents had to rely on the majority who vaccinate not only to protect themselves — but also their families, neighbors and friends. That is what a community or civilization does.

To the editorA call to fight King County’s appeal on trail

As a Sammamish resident living along the East Lake Sammamish Trail, I have followed the actions of the Sammamish City Council very closely. In very obvious retrospect, it is apparent now that only Ramiro Valderrama and Nancy Whitten didn’t drink the goodwill Kool-Aid King County was serving. The façade of interest in and concern for resi-dent inputs covering tree removal, privacy intrusion, and storm water runoff built by Kathy Huckabay and Tom Vance crumbled under the Permit Appeal filed by King County in July. It was always just a farce.

The question now becomes “Now What?” Will the council use the power they have to work through these issues with the King County Executive and give us a trail that reflects the concerns of trailside resi-dents or will we see something else? I know what to expect and appreci-ate the positive efforts of Ramiro Valderrama in this regard. I ask the other members of the Council to show similar concern for their con-stituents who are trailside residents and fight King County throughout this appeal process.

Food for Back to SchoolWith the new school year, parents’

attention is turning to school clothes, supplies, and lunches. Yes, school lunches!

In past years, USDA had used our nation’s schools as a dumping ground for surplus meat and dairy commodi-

ties. Not surprisingly, one-third of children have become overweight or obese. Their early dietary flaws become lifelong addictions, raising their risk of diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.

Gradually, the tide is turning. New guidelines mandated by President Obama’s Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act, require doubling the servings of fruits and vegetables, more whole grains, less sodium and fat, and no meat for breakfast. A survey released last week shows the guidelines sup-ported by 86% of Americans.

64% of U.S. school districts now offer vegetarian options. More than 120 schools, including the entire school districts of Baltimore, Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Houston, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Oakland, Philadelphia, and San Diego have implemented Meatless Monday. Some schools have dropped meat from their menu altogether.

As parents, we need to work with school cafeteria managers and our own children to encourage the avail-ability and consumption of healthy, plant-based school foods. Entering “vegetarian options in schools” pro-vides lots of good resources.

Frank Edwards, Bellevue

Continue work toward women’s equality

Women’s Equality Day, which commemorates the passage of the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote, is an opportunity to reflect on how much we have accomplished and how far we still have to go.

Each year on August 26, we remember the long struggle and ulti-mate victory to grant women the

ability to exercise their self-determi-nation by having the equal right to cast a vote for the candidate whom they believe will best serve them and their families. Today we recognize that we must continue to do so much more to ensure that all women have the full capacity to make the best decisions for the course of their lives and for the future of their families.

We must address current econom-ic injustices in the workplace and health care access disparities which disproportionately affect women. Women still suffer from overt and institutional discrimination in the workplace. Many women still lack access to paid parental leave, paid sick leave, affordable child care, job opportunities in all fields, equitable pay and the full range of reproductive health care, including contraceptive and abortion care, without which a woman does not have full equality to determine her future.

In light of recent attacks on wom-en’s health care across the nation, I encourage Eastside leaders to redou-ble their efforts to stand with women by supporting them with policies that ensure their equal participation in our economy and democracy.

A 23-year-old Sam-mamish man died Aug. 19 in a �ery crash on Interstate 15, just north of Fillmore, Utah, local news agencies reported.

�e driver, identi�ed by Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Todd Royce as Derek J. White of Sammamish, had been driving a Honda Civic northbound when he entered a construction zone where tra�c must merge le� due to a closed

right lane, the Salt Lake Tribune reported.

White’s vehicle dri�ed to the le� edge of the road when he overcorrected to the right, Fox 13 Salt Lake City reported. �en he steered sharply back to the le�, heading toward the median. �e vehicle went o� the road before White sharply steered right, which sent the car into a clockwise rotation heading back toward the travel lanes.

Finally, the Honda came to a stop sideways in the

le� travel lane. Shortly therea�er, a semitrailer traveling northbound struck the Honda.

�e impact sent both vehicles to the right, through a right-of-way fence, stopped and caught �re.

White was pinned in his vehicle.

�e driver of the semitrailer survived with minimal injuries.

Utah Highway Patrol did not return the Report-er’s phone call regarding the crash.

Bosslet was unable to provide more informa-tion as to whether or not any of those infected are Sammamish or Issaquah residents. She did say one person infected is a child; the others are adults. She did not give speci� cs, due to privacy concerns.

� e Bellevue-based food vendor, Los Chilangos, is the alleged link between all six infected with E. coli O157.

� e � rst person infected ate Los Chilangos food 10 days before experiencing symptoms in mid-August, Bosslet said.

Los Chilangos serves food at seven farmers markets in King and Snohomish counties, operates two food trucks and caters events. It uses a shared kitchen space, Eastside Commercial Kitchen in Bellevue. Dozens of other food businesses share the space and equipment in the kitchen.

“Because that site does share some equipment between vendors, we closed it down and we’re investigating,” Bosslet told the Reporter.

Due to the potential for cross-contamination and the imminent health hazard, Bosslet wrote in a statement, Public Health closed Los Chilangos Aug. 21 and the kitchen Aug. 27.

“� e kitchen must take several corrective ac-tions, including the repair of several physical con-ditions, improved storage, refrigeration and water,” Bosslet wrote in an email. “Similarly, Los Chilan-gos must prove improved sanitation and cross-contamination protocol and � nd a new facility that can support them that meets our standards.”

Health o� cials found the kitchen did not have adequate facilities to properly store or maintain safe temperatures of potentially hazardous food; it had inadequate hand washing facilities and inad-equate sanitizing equipment, according to county closure records.

Public Health’s goal is “to locate the source of

the problem, address it and prevent any future illness, but we may never know for sure what the culprit is,” Bosslet said.

All seven of the food vendors using the kitchen have been noti� ed and are not allowed to use the facilities, according to the records.

� e vendors include Mo’ Pockets, Cheweya, La Riviera, Buns, Panchitos, Kalinka and Jai Balaji. All are food trucks, and used the location to prepare food for sale across Bellevue and other communities.

“All the vendors permitted by Public Health that use the commissary have had their operations temporarily suspended,” Bosslet said. “We have been working with them individually to relocate their operations to other facilities so that they may re-open.”

Financially, vendors will have to pay for a re-inspection fee as well as 50 percent of the permit-ting costs; this is in addition to the loss already experienced due to the kitchen closing, Bosslet said.

People can get E. coli through several sources. � is includes eating or drinking something contaminated with animal or human fecal matter, by contacting another person already a� ected or through animal contact.

As the investigation is ongoing, county health o� cials recommend the public to continue good food safety practices, like washing hands prop-erly and cooking or storing food at the proper temperature.

Sammamish, Issaquah schools re-opened Sept. 1BY MEGAN CAMPBELLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

With the new academic year — class began in Lake Washington and Issaquah school districts Sept. 1 — drivers will encounter slower-moving tra�c in school zones. By law, they are not to exceed 20 mph in these areas, or else they face a �ne.

�e Sammamish Police Department issued 388 tickets between Septem-

ber 2013 and June 2014 in school zones.

�e previous school year, 2013-2014, the department issued 281 tickets in school zones.

Fines for speeding in a Washington school zone are double that of a normal speeding ticket, according to state law. �is penalty cannot be waived, reduced or suspended.

�e amount ticketed for speeding in a school zone is based on how many miles per hour over the speed limit someone is traveling.

�e Issaquah and Sam-mamish police will be on patrol, once again monitor-ing these areas for speeders.

Two speed cameras along Second Avenue

Southeast in Issaquah will be reactivated in conjunc-tion with the �rst day of school, according to the city of Issaquah. �e cameras operate only during school days to increase safety and reduce speed violations near Issaquah schools. �ey will be active from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.

�e cameras monitor both lanes of tra�c near Clark Elementary, Issaquah High, Issaquah Middle and Tiger Mountain Commu-nity High schools.

When a vehicle exceeds the 20-mph speed limit, it is photographed and video-taped. A set $124 �ne will be mailed to the owner of the vehicle a�er Issaquah police review the footage and con�rm the violation.

Fi�y percent of all �nes collected go to the state treasurer. Only the Washington tra�c safety commission can use those funds for school zones, student transportation and school bus loading and

unloading improvements.Along with obeying

tra�c laws in school zones, drivers are also asked to watch for students walking or riding bikes to and from school.

When a school bus dis-plays yellow, �ashing lights, vehicles must slow and prepare to stop.

When the school bus �ashes its red lights and the stop sign is displayed, vehicles must stop — both behind the bus and in the opposite lane approaching the stopped bus.

�ose witness to drivers breaking tra�c laws or acting suspiciously around schools or children are urged to call 911.

public funding for each of its full-time students — an amount that administra-tive documents note is nearly $1,000 less than the statewide average.

Projections through the end of the current de-cade show slower district growth over the next four school years. But the school population is expected to sit at nearly 19,600 students by the 2019-2020 school year.

�e district is currently looking at putting a bond measure on the spring 2016 ballot to fund two new elementary schools, a middle school and high school, while expanding several existing cam-puses. A bond committee recommended a $518.5 million bond measure to the superintendent in May. Superintendent Ron �iele will bring his recommendation to the school board for approval at a future date.

lion end-of-the-year bal-ance. In all, the city will use these funds to cover an increase in budget of about $240,000.

“We’re dealing in a market where we have too many construction projects and not enough contractors to perform the work. Most of our bids are coming in high,” Sammamish Parks and Recreation Director Jessi

Bon said Tuesday. “Frankly towards the end of the year, I think we’ve been a little surprised by market conditions. � ey really are favoring the contractors right now.”

A� er rejecting the only bid it received in July, which was about 70 percent higher than the city engi-neer’s original estimate for the work, the city opened the process up again in August.

� is time it received three responses, all above the engineer’s estimate

made about a year and a half ago during planning.

Paul Brothers’ total bid came in about $30,000 less than the next lowest bidder.

Going to bid again — whether in an attempt to get a lower overall cost or to remove something from the project’s scope to lower costs — would delay the project into the next year, Bon said.

Sta� estimated construc-tion to begin September and carry through Decem-ber, taking about 90 days

to complete. Delaying this would defer several other projects.

Bon and her sta� are also not convinced the city could get a better deal.

“We do feel this is the number that’s representa-tive of market conditions,” she said referring to the Paul Brother’s contact. “We do have the funds available to complete this work.”

� e park, � rst donated to the city in 2011, had been pegged for a number of natural play structures, most notably a zip line.

Paul Brothers’ work will include installing an asphalt parking lot, ADA accessible trails, stone walls, a natural playscape, park structures, planting, irrigation, a new park entrance and overlook. It will use a less expensive trail surfacing, saving the city about $61,000. � ese savings are re� ected in the � nal contract.

� e contractor will not build the central board-walk, which Bon said is an essential component of the park and accessible walkways. � e portion of the work was advertised as a separate piece during the second round of bids. Ul-timately, the parks depart-ment did not recommend paying a contractor for the work, in favor of using volunteers who have done

this before.She told the council it’s

“within our skill set and capacity to do this work in house.”

Councilmembers Tom Odell, Nancy Whitten and Ramiro Valderrama-Ara-mayo opposed the motion to approve, with Mayor Tom Vance, Deputy Mayor Kathy Huckabay, Council-members Bob Keller and Don Gerend approving it.

� e majority of concern from the opposing three related to completely emp-tying the parks contingency fund.

Bon tired to dispel this worry, saying this is the last parks project of the year. � ere will be funds in the upcoming year for contin-gencies.

� ere was also a layer of concern regarding the

current � nancial climate in the nation and abroad and how that would a� ect the city and its project estimates. Speci� cally, Bon and council members used the Sammamish Landing project as an example of bids coming in higher than anticipated.

“I’m reluctant to go gung-ho on both these projects with this kind of an overrun,” Whitten said.

But the majority of the council was con� dent in its � nances and the Big Rock Park project.

“We’re doing very well with the parks budget,” Gerend said. “I don’t think it’s time to say the sky is falling.”

A Sammamish couple started their new business to teach their boys some responsibility.

“Living in this area, we are privileged,” Sandra Collins said. “We wanted to show them you have to work hard in life.”

Collins and her husband, Wayne, opened � e Dog Spot this summer, selling dogs at various community events like the Wednes-day Sammamish Farmers Market.

� ey o� er 100 percent beef, smoked sausage and polish hot dogs, with chips

and drinks for sale as well. A dog on its own is $4. For a meal, it's $6 — or $5 if you qualify for the student discount. � e meal includes the hot dog, chips and a drink.

� e Collins boys — Jera-miah, 6, Isaiah, 13 and Joshua, 19 — do the heavy li� ing, like loading the cart, and help with the business side of things, like manag-ing the inventory, while their mom works the events.

“It's really a family busi-ness,” Sandra Collins said.

� e Collins have lived in Sammamish for 18 years.

Sandra, 48, and Wayne, 50, had been talking about opening a Caribbean res-taurant, but there were too many obstacles to take that on right now.

“We wanted something we could do where we could both keep our jobs,” Sandra Collins said.

So a hot dog vendor it is.As well as teaching their

boys important life lessons, Collins has had help from her friend's son.

Trey Kubalanza, 17, al-ready had his food handlers card from working in a restaurant in Bothell. He

said he likes working. It's taught him organizational skills and that maintaining a positive presentation is important in any customer service job.

“It kind of makes you an overall better person,” Kubalanza said. “I just like seeing people enjoy the stu� you make.” Kubalanza has worked with Collins the last several months, including at Sammamish Days on Aug. 22.

Collins will continue to cater to events and various groups into the fall.

For example, she'll be at the Northwest Children's Fund Golf Tournament in Redmond, Sept. 11. She'll also be at the Discovery El-ementary School Art Walk, also on Sept. 11.

To book � e Dog Spot, call Collins at 206-972-1964.

New hot dog vendor sets up cart in Sammamish

Sandra Collins, 48, stands near her hot dog cart outside the Sammamish City Hall off of 228th Avenue Northeast. The Dog Spot, her family’s new business, began serving at the Sammamish Farmers Market earlier this summer. Collins and her husband started the business to teach their three boys responsibility.

parents,” said Wang. “I want to do something with technology for the community, not just the 20-somethings.”

Since going live in March with summer camp o� erings, the website has had more than 10,800 unique visitors, formed partnerships with 50 pro-viders and logged more than 3400 camps in their online system.

� e summer camps were open across Issaquah, Bellevue, Seattle, Kirkland, Lynnwood, Redmond, Mercer Island and other areas. � e computer system itself could easily be used by any school district in the state, and potentially nationwide.

With the initial success of the summer o� erings, Wang began working on creating a system in which parents can vote for the in-school and outside of school extracurricular activities hosted by their school. While she is still in discussion with schools to implement this system,

“� is is something schools can use to leverage the collective wisdom of parents,” she said. “� ere are schools that were involving parents in the process, but so far, it’s been in an ad hoc manner. � is is just more information for the people who make the decisions.”

� e website will also help parents schedule and book a� er school activities, a process which Wang said can sometimes be more challenging than � nd-ing the programs. “Even for well-known programs, the problem o� en isn’t discovery, but scheduling,” she said.

� ere is no fee for parents or administrators to use the website – the only cost is a small fee levied on program providers when the site helps them � ll empty seats in their programs.

Along with the positive parent feedback Wang has received and the multitude of updates made to the system, the team at 6crickets is continuing to learn and improve the website.

� e programs included on the site at this point have largely come through parent recommenda-tions. Wang has started recording and posting � ve minute long video interviews with some providers in which she asks them about their background, curriculum and instruction style.

Take control of your income in retirement

Retire with a monthly payment that is guaranteed and predictable

When it comes to your retirement, it’s best to avoid surprises. And that’s why many retirees choose the guaranteed income offered through annuities. Investing in an annuity can provide a predictable monthly payment to cover your essential expenses, and offers assurance that you can take care of your financial needs throughout your retirement years.

Join Wells Fargo Advisors for a complimentary seminar designed to help you evaluate your retirement income sources, understand annuities, and determine whether investing in an annuity might be the solution for providing guaranteed income throughout your retirement.

Variable annuities are long-term investments suitable for retirement funding and are subject to market fluctuations and investment risk.

School began for Lake Washington School Dis-trict and Issaquah School District students Tuesday, Sept. 1.

Parents, guardians and their children huddled under the covered area out-side Discover Elementary School before the doors opened at 9 a.m.

Buses rolled into the parking lot at about 8:55 a.m. Slowly, at �rst, some holding their hoods to pro-tect their faces, students ran from the bus and scurried to the school’s entrance. Discovery Elementary sta� welcomed them back as they went inside.

Friends gathered brie�y outside, some hugging a�er the long break. Others

showed o� their back-to-school gear. Parents took one last �rst-day-of-school photo before letting their

little ones run into the building.

School for these students o�cially began at 9:05 a.m.

The Eastside Catholic Crusaders celebrate after defeating the Bellevue Wolverines 35-13 in the Class 3A state championship game in December of 2014 at the Tacoma Dome. The Crusaders return senior starting quarterback Harley Kirsch this fall. Kirsch verbally committed to Cornell University this summer.

Gridiron stars are ready to kickoff 2015 seasonBY SHAUN SCOTTISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

� e sound of popping pads will be on display tonight as the majority of high school football programs in Washington will kick o� its season under the bright glare of Friday night lights.

Below the Issaquah/Sammamish Reporter takes a look at how the Eastside Catholic Crusaders, Eastlake Wolves, Skyline Spar-tans, Issaquah Eagles and Liberty Patriots will fare on the football � eld this fall.

EASTSIDE CATHOLIC CRUSADERS

Head coach: Jeremy � ielbahr (� � h year)Last year: 14-0 (Captured Class 3A state

championship)Key players: Harley Kirsch, QB; Bran-

don Wellington, RB/S/LB; Matt Laris, WR/LB; Devon Arbis-Jackson, WR/CB; Hunter Bryant, TE/WR.

� e Eastside Catholic Crusaders reached the pinnacle during the 2014 season, knocking o� the Bellevue Wolverines 35-13 in the Class 3A state championship game in December of 2014 at the Tacoma Dome. Eastside Catholic’s victory snapped Bellevue’s 67-game winning streak. � e

Crusaders will be led by senior signal caller Harley Kirsch this fall. Kirsch, who verbally committed to Cornell University earlier this summer, epitomizes what it means to be a leader.

“Harley has transformed our program into something that you can’t duplicate. I think having him do what he’s done and the way he leads our team is awe inspiring,” Crusaders’ head coach Jeremy � ielbahr said in mid-June. “I’m really excited for him this year. He has got a great future ahead of him.”

� e Crusaders may have won their � rst football state championship in school history nine months ago but that doesn’t mean they will rest on their laurels and slew of press clippings from last year’s magical run.

“It is obviously a great position to be in but it is also a lot of pressure,” Kirsch said of defending the state title in June. “We have a great group of guys. I love playing with these guys and hopefully we can pull out one more state title. We will just give it our all on every single play then whatever happens will happen.”

� e Crusaders open the 2015 season on the road in the San Diego Honor Bowl at 8 p.m. tonight against Oceanside High School.

FOOTBALLCONTINUED FROM PAGE 12

SKYLINE SPARTANS Head coach: Mat Taylor (eighth year)Last year: 6-4 (lost to Skyview in district playo� game)Key players: Blake Gregory, QB; Rashaad Boddie, RB;

Danny Sinatro, WR/CB; Henry Bainivalu, OL/DL; Cam-eron Hill, OL/DL; Logan Wanamaker, WR/DB; Bradley Kim, S; PJ Cox, OLB.

The Skyline Spartans, a football program that won state championships in 2000, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2011 and 2012, saw their season come to and courtesy of a 34-31 home loss against the Skyview Storm in a winner-to-state, loser-out playoff game in their final contest of the 2014 season. Skyline head coach Mat Taylor and his team has put last season in the rearview mirror and is totally focused on the 2015 campaign. The Spartans return two of the best players in the state, quarterback Blake Gregory and running back Rashaad Boddie. Taylor said Gregory has looked “awesome” during the first few weeks of practice.

“I wouldn’t trade him for any quarterback in the state. People know about him but by the end of the sea-son everyone in the state are definitely going to know about him by the time the season is over,” Taylor said.

Taylor expects his team to have a successful season. “We’re always confident. The bottom line is its about

a group of 15-to-18 year-old kids playing as one unit. They play with a lot of confidence. We as coaches have that same confidence in them,” he said.

ISSAQUAH EAGLESHead coach: Buddy Bland (second year)Last year: 5-5 (didn’t advance to postseason)Key players: Tyrus Tuiasosopo, WR/DB; Cam Hum-

phrey, QB; Jake Collins, TE/DL; Conner Pederson, WR/DB; Connor Smith, OL/DL; Jordan Minnix, OL/DL; Trey Gevers, WR/DB; Joe Nelson, WR/DB; Bryce Hughes, RB/DB; Mark Findlay, WR/LB; Ashton Sorrento, WR/DB; Ethan Koppel, WR/DB; Kirin Junsay, RB/DL

Issaquah Eagles starting quarterback Cam Hum-phrey is a seasoned signal caller and the undisputed leader of his football team.

Humphrey, who started 10 games at quarterback during the 2014 season, is ready for the season to be-gin. Issaquah head coach Buddy Bland said Humphrey is blessed with experience, outstanding ability and football smarts.

“Cam is one of the best quarterbacks in the area,” Bland said in June.

Bland said the Eagles’ vocal leaders consist of Hum-phrey, Ethan Koppel, Connor Smith and Jake Collins.

“We have superior senior leadership, a balanced of-fense and above average game experience,” Bland said.

Bryce Hughes, who emerged as a significant con-tributor during the second half of the 2014 season will start at running back after backing up Issaquah 2015 grad Mikey Giannopulos last season.

LIBERTY PATRIOTSHead coach: Steve Valach (17th year)Last year: 6-4 (lost to Fife in district playo� game)Key players: Nate Solly, QB; Preston Mitsui, WR/DB;

Dulin Hayden, WR/DB; Austin Porter, OL; Max Batali, RB/DB; Marquel Ellis, RB/DE; Sam Harrington, RB/DB; Jack Chartier, TE/LB; Isaiah Owens, WR/DB; James Workman, OL/DE/LS; Joseph Cunningham, RB/LB; Torey Anderson, WR/DB.

Putting up points shouldn’t be a problem for the Liberty Patriots on the gridiron this fall.

The Patriots return starting quarterback Nate Solly and offensive lineman James Workman to the starting

lineup this season. The dynamic duo were elected as co-captains by their teammates.

“They are both leaders who lead by example,” Patri-ots head coach Steve Valach said.

Valach is a firm believer that coaching high school football is about more than just what happens between the hashmarks and white lines of the field.

“Our whole mission is to unlock greatness in the players we coach — in all aspects, not just football,” he said. “I’m not a screamer but I’m super excited about having the opportunity to influence boys’ lives through football.”

EASTLAKE WOLVESHead coach: Don Bartel (third year)Last year: 7-4 (lost to Bothell in the first round of

the Class 4A state playoffs)Key players: Mark Whitley, QB; Jacob Kaufman, C/

DL; Connor McCabe, OL/DL

The Eastlake Wolves football team will be led by se-nior starting quarterback Mark Whitley. Whitley, who started three games as a junior, exuded his leadership qualities in the months leading up to the season.

“When you know you’re the guy (starting quarter-back) it is such an advantage coming into the season. We’re (coaching staff ) excited for him,” Eastlake head coach Don Bartel said this past June. “Mark is a com-petitor and he’s already got his own set of goals of what he wants for the season and how he wants our season to go. His whole consideration is to do whatever he can to help this team. That is what I love about him as a leader. It is going to be awesome.”

The Wolves, who benefit from one of the best homefield advantages in the KingCo Conference due to their boisterious crowd, will open the 2015 season on the road against the Class 4A state champion Bothell Cougars at 7 p.m. tonight at Pop Keeney Stadium in Bothell.

How to help children before, during and after a change of school

BEFOREBefore the big day, it’s

essential that children visit the place that will be like a second home to them for the next few years. If possible, organize a meeting with their future teacher, as it will help reduce some anxiety. However, as a parent, the best way to reassure your children is to tell them about your own experiences (in positive terms, of course!). If you’ve never experienced a change

of school, draw an analogy with your � rst day at work. Feel free to use some humor to lighten the mood.

DURINGThe big day has � nally

arrived! Inspire con� dence in your children by putting on your best smile. Set aside plenty of time this morning for talking to them. Ask them how they feel and be sure to tell them that the stress they’re feeling is normal. Because it’s their � rst day, tell them that you’ll walk them to their classroom if they would like you to.

Every child is unique, so it can be di� cult to gauge the level of anxiety generated

by a change of school, either during the year or at the beginning of a new school year. In any case, you can help calm their fears with a few caring gestures and lots of encouragement. The goal is to show your complete support.

AFTERA change of school requires

an adjustment period that varies from child to child. After they get through the � rst few days, watch for their reactions and be attentive to what they’re saying. You could always contact the school psychologist if you feel your child needs professional help in adapting to all the changes.

Calling the shots on the soccer � eld is something Eastlake Wolves senior defender Cami Kennedy has been doing her entire life on the pitch.

Kennedy, who will be one of the Wolves team captains this fall, said playing Stopper (center defender) is a huge responsibility she shoulders without a hesitation.

“I like it a lot,” Kennedy said. “It is a really important position. My best strength is communication with everyone because I can see the full � eld. My job is to make sure everyone stays organized and stays positive.”

Kennedy’s positive attitude permeates throughout the entire program.

“It is important to always be positive. If we get negative, it is a bad in� uence on the team,” she said.

� e Wolves have been pushing them-selves through rigorous summer practice sessions in preparation for the fall season. � e Wolves conducted uno� cial voluntary workouts four times a week throughout July.

“We’re out here every morning putting in the work. We’re really focused on having a family atmosphere and working hard for each other,” Kennedy said. “We’re growing that team bond.”

Recently the Reporter had an opportunity

to ask Kennedy a few questions about her life away from the soccer � eld.

Issaquah Reporter: What is your favorite movie of all time?

Cami Kennedy: Mean Girls. It is a clas-sic. Everyone watches it.

IR: What is your biggest pet peeve?CK: When people aren’t being positive. I

think its a very important thing to be posi-tive. I love having a good time, laughing and cracking jokes.

IR: What is your favorite eatery in Sam-mamish?

CK: Mod Pizza. I love pizza. It is my favorite food.

IR: What is your dream vacation spot?CK: Florida. I like tropical areas that are

warm. My dad is from there.

IR: What is something unique about you that nobody would know?

CK: My favorite TV show is Grey’s Anatomy.

IR: Who was your favorite athlete grow-ing up?

CK: Alex Morgan (professional soccer player). She is really inspiring.
