Marcella Fogg, an officer with the Redmond Police Department (RPD), is filing a $3 million claim against the City of Redmond for ongoing harassment and retaliation since going undercover as a senior at Redmond High School (RHS) in 2010.

According to previous reports, the seven-month-long undercover operation was part of a drug bust that resulted in the arrest of 11 students, who were involved in a variety of drugs including black tar heroine, ecstasy, cocaine and oxycontin.

Kathryn Reith, com-munications director for the Lake Washington School District, said the only person to know of the undercover investiga-tion beforehand was RHS principal Jane Todd.

“I’d learned about it the night before they were go-ing to go in and make the arrests,” Reith said, adding that the information was vague, only telling her that something big would be happening at the school.

KING 5 news reported that since Fogg completed the assignment — as a rookie — she received a chilly reception from fellow officers.

Court documents state that she couldn’t always count on them to back her up when she needed. This

included an incident in June 2011 in which Fogg responded to a domestic violence call while her part-ner returned to the squad car rather than stay outside in case she needed backup.

Fogg was also investi-gated for a hit-and-run accident by the Washing-ton State Patrol after she brushed her side mirror against another car on Dec. 1, 2011 while she was pur-suing a bank robbery sus-pect in Overlake, according to court documents.

RPD also hired the Bel-levue Police Department (BPD) in August 2012 to investigate Fogg after she began mentoring a troubled 16-year-old RHS student. Court documents state that the teen’s parents sent the RPD a letter praising Fogg and expressing their gratitude for counseling their son. This prompted speculation on Fogg’s relationship with the teen — including rumors that he was the father of her child, not Fogg’s husband — and RPD’s hiring Bellevue po-lice to investigate.

“It’s just horrendous,” said Fogg’s attorney Bob Kim about the accusations.

One month later, BPD closed the investigation, stating the rumors were “unfounded” and that, “there was absolutely no evidence or even an original complaint that indicated the allegation was legitimate.”

Ray Corona was 9 years old when his family moved from Mexico to Everett, and even at that age, he knew they’d arrived in the country illegally.

A dozen years later, he is still undocumented, but this hasn’t stopped him from pursuing his dream of going to college, and next month, the 21-year-

old will graduate from the University of Washington, Bothell.

Corona was enrolled in the Mukilteo School District and attended a high school that was part of the Achievers Schol-arship Program, which allowed him to apply for scholarships despite his lack of documentation. The scholarships he received helped him finance his

post-secondary education, but not all undocumented students will have the same access to scholarships as Corona.

To help others with similar backgrounds as his, Corona was part of a rally at Hartman Park in Redmond Friday afternoon to encourage people to contact local senators — specifically Sen. Rodney Tom and Sen. Andy Hill of the 48th and 45th Legislative Districts — to pass the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act for Washington. The bill has already passed in

the Washington House of Representatives but has yet to even make it on the Senate floor.

“They deserve a vote,” said Redmond resident Krista Jensen. “These kids are all going to be in the work force…These kids are all our kids.”

Q: Does cooking food in a microwave cause nutrient loss?

A: Despite their popularity, many people are convinced that radiation from micro-waves destroys nutrients. Thankfully, research does not back this up. The primary determinants of nutrient loss are cook time, cook temperature and the amount of liquid used. In other words, any form of cooking can lead to nutrient loss, but micro-waving is actually a BETTER option. Microwaves do a great job of heating your food very quickly, and microwaves

heat at temperatures that are lower than most other forms of cooking. The water-soluble vitamins, B-complex and C, are easily the most susceptible to heat, and are commonly found in beans, fruits and vegetables. Bottom line — use the microwave as often as you need to, but try to avoid using water in the cooking process to avoid leaching of those water-soluble vitamins.

Q: I’ve never been the best sleeper. Is this having a negative impact on my overall health?

A: Unfortunately, yes, it probably is! There is a lot of emerging research revolv-ing around sleep (or the lack thereof) and its associated health implications. There’s some data now indicating that those who get just one night of poor sleep end up with abnormal lab values indicative of pre-diabetes. That’s right, pre-diabetes! Folks with poor sleep cycles can end up with suppressed insulin secretion after a meal,

which leaves them with elevated blood sugar levels for far too long. They also have lowered resting metabolic rates, which could ultimately contribute to weight gain, as well. Other researchers have discovered that hundreds of genes get disrupted after just one week of suboptimal sleep, thereby impairing the body’s ability to heal itself. Chronic sleep problems have been associated with heart attacks, stroke, diabetes and obesity for years, but now we’re start-ing to see direct observations in the laboratory setting. In the end, optimal sleep is just as important as your fitness level and your nutritional sta-tus when it comes to overall health, so try to get at least eight hours a night, and more when you can.

Q: I lift five days per week consistently, but my strength gains have flat-lined. How do I continue to get stronger?

A: Despite not having much information to go on here, let’s see if I can provide some insight. First of all, there’s the distinct possibility that you’re working out too much. Maybe your volume (the combination of sets and reps) is too high — a common problem for those looking to gain strength as quickly as possible. And how long has it been since you’ve taken some time off to allow your body to fully recuperate from the stress of exercise? Some much-needed rest may do the trick, and amazingly, people often come back even stronger. I also wonder if you’re changing up your workouts enough. Many peo-ple get into the habit of using machines or free weights, but then never gravitate toward other forms of exercise. Cables, tubing, bands, kettle bells, medicine balls and even body weight exercises can all increase strength, so you should try to vary up your routine regularly. Lastly, you have to remember that strength doesn’t just increase exponentially on a continual basis. There is a threshold that you’ll reach at some point, and you could be there already. If you feel like you need help with your current program, talk to a certified personal trainer.

Ever had wrist pain? I think everyone just nodded. In our modern world, our wrists really do a lot — checking grocer-ies, using the computer mouse, opening jars, gar-dening, chopping herbs, doing pushups — OK, well maybe not the pushups! But our wrists are involved in a lot of things.

However, sometimes our wrist and/or hand issues actually stem from our necks. Or our shoulders. Or both, why not? Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned in my practice, it’s that the source of a client’s pain is generally not just because of one single issue. Our bodies are quite mi-raculous in what they can do — and they’re super complicated as a result. So when we have gen-eral aches and pains, the reason is generally quite a few causes.

When I hear a cli-ent tell me he has pain, numbness or weakness in his hand, I ask where? Knowing where discom-fort is located is the key to helping me help you. If it’s half the middle finger, the ring finger, and pinky, I’m going to check your

shoulder. If your shoulder is OK, I’ll look at your neck. It’s possible the brachial plexus is being impinged by a cranky muscle, maybe pectoralis minor, maybe subclavius, maybe anterior scalene. Don’t worry, I’m the one who needs to know where they are. But if you’re curi-ous, you can Google them. And then I’ll recommend you roll your shoulders back and listen to your mother — sit up straight! Hunching over is a great way to get numb hands. Another way is sleeping on your side without a pil-low to support your arms (I call it a “huggy pillow”). Generally, if your hands go numb and it’s due to pec minor, the simple act of rolling your shoulders back and sticking your chest out will help within 30 seconds. And about 80 percent of the time in my practice, it’s due to pec minor.

Pain, numbness or weakness in the thumb, forefinger and half the middle finger? It could be in the wrist. You have a carpal tunnel in each wrist (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is when you have an issue in your carpal tunnel). There’s actually a tunnel formed by the wrist bones (carpals) and a ligament that connects a couple of bones (the transverse carpal ligament). The tun-nel is really narrow, maybe a little more than a pinky width, but it has to allow nine tendons plus one

nerve through — not a lot of room. If any of those structures get cranky from overuse, they can get inflamed and cause a lot of trouble. Massage can help soothe the inflamma-tion, but nothing will beat some good old-fashioned wrist rest and maybe a hot Epsom salt soak or 15-20 minutes of ice (more than 15-20 minutes of ice anywhere can cause harm to your healthy tissue, so set a timer or use a bag of frozen peas, they usually thaw within 20 minutes). You may also want to try a wrist brace to keep the wrist in a neutral posi-tion — bending the wrist in different directions can put pressure on the carpal tunnel and make you unhappy.

So the next time you get a massage for any reason, know that when your mas-sage therapist asks ques-tions about your issues, she’s trying to assess where to start. Most of us are ac-tually not psychic, we just have training in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology and a few other –ologies — and we’re trying to get to the root of the issue so we can help you get better, faster!

Under the Washington state constitution, providing an ample education for all students is identified as state government’s “paramount duty.” Last year, the state Supreme Court ruled that the legislature had failed to meet that duty by persistently underfunding our schools. This year, the legislature is responding.

The governor and lawmak-ers of both parties agree that upwards of $1 billion in new funding needs to go to educa-tion. However, some lawmak-ers want to actually eliminate funding for one of our state’s most successful education programs: Navigation 101.

That program is scientifically proven to reduce drop-out rates.  A total of 52 percent of all middle and high schools in Washington use Naviga-tion 101 to help kids prepare for their future and graduate. Eliminating it now will make our state’s drop out problem worse.  

We use Navigation 101’s curriculum and tools to help our students develop their core compe-tencies in career and life planning, post-second-ary option decision making, college admissions, the financial aid process and more. The program also provides tools for counselors, teachers and administrators to track and monitor student and school performance.

Some kids thrive in traditional classrooms and

need very little help from specialized programs like Navigation 101. But for many others, tar-geted assistance is crucial. I have seen many kids stay in school, graduate and move on to success-ful futures because of Navigation 101.

It is hard to understand the rationale behind eliminating funding for this program. Years of data prove that Navigation 101 helps students succeed.

We know it isn’t expensive. The two-year budget to keep Navigation 101 available to all school districts is just over $5 million, not a large program in a budget of over $30 billion.

Nearly one in four of Washington’s students fail to graduate on time. Navigation 101 is designed

specifically to address this crisis. Why would we take this resource away from school districts that are using it to change lives right now?

The state legislature is working on a new two year state budget now. Several Eastside legisla-tors, particularly Rep. Ross Hunter, and Sens. Rodney Tom and Andy Hill, are crucial in this debate. They need to hear from you. Please call the toll free legislative hotline today at 1-800-562-6000, and ask Hunter, Tom and Hill to support continued funding for Navigation 101.

From the Web: Redmond’s 2030 comprehensive plan

(In response to Peter Rogerson’s guest column, “A voice against Red-mond’s Agenda 21 vision for 2030”)

• Peter, your arguments attempt to take on a “good old-fashioned conservative” approach, but instead come off as “I am personally an-noyed.” Redmond’s apartment buildings are not centrally planned. If a private company does not want to provide parking spaces, and instead wants to take a gamble on the idea that many of its residents will not need one, then who are you to tell them otherwise?

If you want, go live somewhere where you can drive your car and smoke in peace without bother-ing anyone. However, if people want to live in an area that is more pedestrian friendly and also allows people to not need to worry about second-hand smoke exposure, and they are willing to pay for this, then the free market has spoken and you lost this one. But, the beauty of free enterprise is that, if your price is right, there will always be someone available to meet your demand. It is your responsibility to go seek that

out for yourself.Stephen Barr

• I am confused by your argu-ments. You say you want to protect “our precious liberties,” yet you imply that Redmond was wrong to allow a private company to remove the trees on a property the com-pany owns? And I don’t understand how anyone in 2030 can force you to ride a bicycle? Or why you would choose an apartment with no parking when there are and will continue to be plenty of apartments in Redmond that do have park-ing? Or why non-smokers should have to put up with the stench and health hazards of another person’s smoke encroaching into their own homes? Whose liberties are being assaulted, and what, exactly, are you protesting?Laurie Ladbury

• Honestly, I can’t comment on 99 percent of that other than the smoking-in-your-home point. Personally, I’m am so annoyed by people that smoke in their apart-ment/home I can’t stand it. For one person’s pleasure, you incon-venience so many other people. Smokers always go and light it up literally after I’ve open my window on a warm summer day. No joke,

it’s every time. I hate it so much and I would support any law that com-pletely bans smoking all together. Yes, I know there are tons of other things individuals do that inconve-nience many others, but smoking is one of those things that is such a common recurrence it drives me crazy. So in summary, sorry Peter, bring on the non-smoking homes in Redmond, I 100 percent support them! I’m sure most of the city’s population would be on my side, as well.Todd Nappen

• UN treaty Agenda 21 was signed by GHW Bush — Clinton established a presidential com-mission that worked with the UN to write city and county regula-tions. These are introduced to city councils and planning commissions as ready-to-implement methods of protecting the environment by sav-ing trees, maintaining green spaces and reducing the use of resources. When cities adopt regulations written by federal and international bureaucrats, two things happen. 1. It catches on and becomes self-fulfilling. Other cities don’t want to be left behind, so they adopt the regulations, as well. We end up with cookie-cutter cities and lose the vibrant diversity and individual-

ism we used to see among cities. 2. People lose freedom. You no longer own your land, you lease it and the city can tell you what you can do on it — you can’t cut down trees, you can’t shade the lake, you can’t plant certain types of plants, you have to process garbage a certain way. Individually, the rules might not be too harsh, but taken together, they constitute an intrusion and diminu-tion of your freedom to live the way you want.

The ultimate goal of Agenda 21 is for everyone to live in high-density housing blocks with all necessi-ties within walking distance. The creators of A21 expect us to stay in these communities with little need to leave. We won’t need cars because we won’t go anywhere. It’s a vision of the future that I want no part of.

We should all demand that our councils and planning commissions do the work they are paid for and write regulations that are custom made for our cities, not just carbon copy what everyone else is doing. The next time you’re told you can’t remove a tree or plant ivy, ask your-self how many more things you’re willing to give up for a collectivist vision of the “greater good.” Is it really good if everyone is restricted?Jeanie McCombs

This week, six students from Louisa May Alcott Elementary School near Redmond and their families are traveling to Tennessee to participate in the Global Finals of the Destination Imagination (DI) competi-tion in Knoxville.

The competition will be from May 22-25 and the Awesome Assemblers — made up of fourth and fifth

graders — from Alcott will be the only team participat-ing from Washington.

“To make a long story short, I feel like a celebrity,” fifth-grader Sid Vijay said about having a chance to participate in something not many people have the opportunity to do.

Fifth-grader Ayan Gupta also acknowledged that competing in the Global Finals — which will have students from 49 states and

33 countries competing — is a big opportunity that they may not get again.

Alongside Sid and Ayan are fourth-graders Samarjit Kaushik, Patrick Pierson and Luke Jianu and fifth-grader Vedantha Venkata-pathy. Together, they will compete in the Technical Challenge category of Elementary School Division at the DI Global Finals, which is the top level of an international tournament that celebrates creativity, ac-cording to the DI website.

DI is a nonprofit that

helps kids discover their creativity with challenge-based programming that incorporates science, technology, engineering and math (STEM), the arts and service learning. The program is open to students

of all ages and teams can choose challenges in vari-ous categories.

Each of the Awesome Assemblers chose the tech-nical category because they thought the tasks would be more challenging.

“Because it sounded cool and it was the hardest out of all of them,” said Patrick about why he chose the technical category.

The challenge is split into two tasks. First, students

The City of Redmond will hold its Bike Bash from 4-7 p.m. tonight along the Sammamish River Trail at City Hall.

The free event will celebrate Redmond bikers and feature live music, food samples, massages, a photo booth, bike vendors and a cash beer garden by Redmond’s Bar and Grill.

For more information, visit www.gortrip.com.

• Dr. Eric Hansen will be hosting his 11th Annual Bicycle Helmet Safety Day from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. tomorrow at Eastside Life Chiropractic, 2032 148th Ave. N.E., Redmond.

“We give away hundreds of bike helmets every year

to kids of all ages and sizes and make sure to properly fit the helmets to ensure their safety. We have given away over 6,000 helmets in the last 10 years,” Hansen said.

Hansen notes that it’s an all-volunteer event with his staff, friends and family. Starbucks donates coffee, Poppin Jays caters the event with pastries and they have free chair massages for parents, as well. They work with the Brain Injury Association of Washington and the Washington State Chiro-practic Association.

Bike Bash is set for tonight

must build cars that are able to travel a pre-determined distance without human interference or the help of a remote control. The second

task is to write and perform a skit to go with the car challenge. The car dem-onstration and skit will be performed simultaneously before judges. In addition, teams will be given on-the-spot challenges to perform in just a few minutes.

Sid said the on-the-spot challenges have been his favorite part of DI because they have to think on their toes to perform them.

Ayan’s father, Deepak Ku-mar, is one of two Awesome Assemblers coaches and said DI teaches kids about collaborating, teamwork, leadership, problem solving and more — all the while encouraging them to be creative.

“They can think outside of the box,” he said.

As a coach, Kumar is not allowed to interfere with the team’s work, which he said is the hardest part of his job.

“We have to watch them fail,” he said.

Instead, he asks them probing questions to help them think through every-

thing.Jingyu Yang, the team’s

second coach, agreed that the “no interference” rule can be difficult, but said it is really rewarding when the boys figure something out and it clicks for them.

At 14, the Interlake High School freshman has par-ticipated in DI since fifth grade — spending three years as a competitor and two years as a coach. While she has been involved in the program for five years, this will be her first year going to the Global Finals.

“I’m really, really proud of them,” she said about the Awesome Assemblers’ success.

While everyone is excited for the upcoming competi-tion in Knoxville, the trip is estimated to cost almost $12,000. To help cover the expenses, the Awesome Assemblers have created a website where people can donate money to spon-sor their team. For more information, visit awesome assemblers.com.

reform and the DREAM Act, and was also at Friday’s rally. In addition to her and Corona, the rally also included members of OneAmerica, a nonprofit focused on advancing the fundamental principles of democracy and justice at the local, state and national levels by building power within immigrant communities in collaboration with key allies.

OneAmerica Organizing Director David Ayala said the goal of the rally was to make the public aware that the DREAM Act — which would allow undocumented individuals who arrived in the United States before they turned 16 (referred to as DREAMers) to apply for permanent residency and eventu-ally, citizenship — is still alive.

With permanent residency or citizen-ship, DREAMers would be able to apply for financial aid and scholarships that are currently out of their reach due to their lack of documentation.

“The only option available to un-documented students is private scholar-ships,” Corona said, adding that there are not a lot of those readily available.

A LEVEL PLAYING FIELDCorona said with tuition at a public

college or university set at about $13,000 per year, it is almost impossible to attend without options for financial assistance. Both Corona, who is the director of educational initiatives for WDAC, and Jensen said with such limited options to pay for college, un-documented students are likely to give up in high school because they don’t see the point.

“There’s no hope,” Jensen said.She said if the DREAM Act were

to pass in Washington, it would open up opportunities for students and put them on an even playing field as their peers as they would be eligible to apply for the same scholarships and financial aid.

“Where would (the undocumented students) go if they knew they had a pathway to college that would help pay for the bulk of it?” Jensen asked of the possibilities.

GOOD FOR THE ECONOMYAyala said the DREAM Act would

open up many opportunities to stu-

dents as they would be able to get a good education and be trained for — and work at — higher-paying jobs in Washington, contributing to the state’s economy.

“There are these bright minds there,” he said, adding that the DREAM Act would encourage DREAMers to put those bright minds to good use.

Steve Miller from the League of Edu-cation Voters for Washington said they strongly support the DREAM Act as most DREAMers have grown up know-ing no other country than the United States but are caught in limbo.

Like Ayala, Miller said making it easier for DREAMers to go to college and work in the state would be benefi-cial to Washington.

“These individuals have talents we can’t afford to waste,” he said.

After learning about the DREAM Act, Nathan Kruse, a junior at Red-mond High School and rally passerby, said hard-working students deserve to go to college — regardless of their status.

“This is the American Dream,” he said.

Kim, who is based in Covington, said although the investigation was closed with BPD stating the rumors were unfounded, it has still been documented and is on record. As a result, Kim said it will be pretty much impossible for Fogg to find a job outside of Redmond.

“They have hosed her career,” he said.

This, in addition to the psychological damage and the physical toll on Fogg, is why she is seeking the $3 million, Kim said.

When asked for a com-ment, City of Redmond chief policy adviser and communications and mar-keting administrator for the city Jeri Rowe-Curtis said

they are not able to provide an interview or commen-tary at this time.

“While the city would like to shed light on pend-ing claims for damages and personnel matters, out of respect for the litigation and personnel processes and the persons involved, our general practice is not to comment while these processes are ongoing,” Rowe-Curtis said in an email to the Reporter. “As a result, at this point the city believes it is premature to discuss claims for damages or complaints and respect-fully declines to do so. The city regrets any inconve-nience this may cause in reporting on all the facts pertaining to the story at this time.”

Ricky Olson and Morgan Cadigan know what it takes to compete in high-level golf tournaments.

Last week, the Bear Creek seniors earned medalist honors at their 2B district events, and next week they’ll both give their clubs a workout for the fourth straight year at the state tourney at Oakbrook Golf Course in Lakewood. Last year at state, Olson took seventh while Cadigan notched fifth and led her team to a third-place finish.

In addition to district solo titles, both golfers guided their teams to dis-trict crowns. Olson will be joined at state by sopho-more Colin Diamond, and Cadigan will have seniors Kiersten Sprick and Sarah Witt and sophomores Gra-cie Matthews and Wendy Hsia on her side.

The keys to success for Olson are “just play-ing smart, limiting your bad shots and just having fun, too,” he said. Olson, who shot an 18-hole 81 at districts, was also medal-ist at the Sea-Tac League championships.

He’s been golfing for about seven years and feels that he’s constantly improving his skills. He’s excited for another shot at state and thinks a top-five finish could be in the cards. Diamond, who competed at state as a freshman last year, also has the potential to place high, Olson said.

Cadigan first stepped onto a golf course six years ago, and her dad’s evalua-tion was, “’Oh, you have a natural swing, you might as well stick with it,’” she said, adding about her time on the course these days, “It’s

fun. You can’t stop improv-ing, getting better and lowering those scores.”

Cadigan, who shot a 93 at districts, likes the com-petitive fire and confidence she sees in her Grizzly teammates and is hopeful that they’ll place in the up-per echelon at state.

They’re all pushing each other to improve their scores each time out, she said, adding that they’re doing their best and never giving up.

REDMOND HIGHJunior Casie Helgeson

and her Mustang crew are set for state, as well, on May 21-22 at Club Green Meadows in Vancouver.

Helgeson, who took sixth at the 4A Girls’ District 2 Tournament, will hit the state links with senior Allison Hunt, junior Caitey Minifie and fresh-man Ally Collier, who all combined to finish second in the team standings at districts.

It will be Helgeson’s third year at state and she’s con-fident that she can perform well next week. The girls have been putting in some extra time practicing at the Willows Run Golf Course and Helgeson feels they’ve reached their peak at the right time.

“We kind of get home a

little late, but it’s all worth it,” she said of their Wednesday links sessions.

Helgeson has always been driven to succeed in golf tournaments, ever since she took up the sport in third

grade. She remembers at-tending junior golf camps and the feeling of excite-ment and hard work paying off during the end-of-camp tourneys.

She’ll be putting her short game to the test at state.

“It’s really a lot more important than you might think,” said Helgeson, add-ing that she’s been working

on her putting, chipping and 100-yard shots to help lower her scores.

OVERLAKEThe Owls girls, who

entered the 1A Emerald City League tournament in third place with an 8-3 record, won the event at Snoqualmie Falls Golf Course.

Junior Nicki Buecker was the medalist, leading the pack with an 89, and other juniors Bijou Basu (fourth place) and Jenay Brown (eighth place) played well and moved on to tri-dis-tricts with freshman Lizzie Riffle (14th place) as an alternate.

second at districts and, according to coach Jeff Loranger, use power

from their groundstrokes and serves as their main weapon,

their teamwork is getting better and their net game is improving

steadily.Hewitt and Harikrishanan placed fourth at districts,

and Loranger said they use a combination of foot speed

(Hewitt) and placement of shots (Harikrishanan) to work the

court, their net game is strong and their teamwork is one of the

best parts of their squad. Overlake went 8-0 in Emerald

City League play, won the team title in the league tournament and placed second at districts.

Redmond High senior Johnathan Stevens won the 1,600-meter run in 4 minutes, 16.44 seconds at Wednesday’s 4A Bi-District Meet at Lake Stevens High.

Stevens and fellow Mus-tang senior Alex Binkerd each won 4A Kingco track crowns last Friday on their home course.

Binkerd won the 100-me-ter run in 10.96 and notched the 200-meter run title in 22.23.

Stevens won the

3,200-meter run in 9:05.62, breaking the 26-year-old meet record of 9:16.2, set by John Hill, the current Bel-levue High coach who was at the meet. Stevens’ mark is a top-50 USA performance.

Stevens also won the 1,600 title on May 8 in 4:15.64.

On the Redmond girls’ side, senior Suzi French won the shot put last Friday with a throw of 34 feet, .03.75 inches.

RACE FOR THE CURE

Twenty years ago, gas was at $1.00 a gallon, a movie titled “Sleepless in Seattle” just

premiered and a young mother named CJ Taylor-Day brought together a small group of friends and volunteers to establish the Puget Sound A� liate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure. Losing her mother to breast cancer at age 17, CJ was passionately committed to ensuring “no child should ever grow up without a mother because of breast cancer.”

Since that beginning, Komen Puget Sound has grown to rank � � h out of 120 Komen a� liates nationally. As a result of this growth, the a� liate has been able to invest over $7 million into

medical research to better diagnose, treat and ultimately cure breast cancer. But the majority of the a� liate’s grants, over $19 million, have been invested right here in our community to fund breast health education, screening and treatment support. Komen Puget Sound continues to be the largest private provider of free mammogram support to low income and uninsured women. � e Komen Patient Assistance Fund has provided thousands of breast cancer patients in our community with � nancial support for life’s basic needs, allowing them to continue their lifesaving treatments. Women like Kate B. from

Renton, Washington said:“I have been incredibly anxious because my treatments for breast cancer have meant missing work. I was SO thankful for the money I received from the patient assistance fund because it allowed us to catch up with my mortgage payments. Without the Komen fund, we would have faced the stress of possible foreclosure. I want to say thank you very much for your help.”

� e � ght against breast cancer has come a long way in the last 20 years. Komen Puget Sound will continue this � ght until Komen’s promise of a world without breast cancer becomes a reality.

As volunteers Tath Hossfeld and Jan Slawson wrapped up preparations for the very � rst

Komen Puget Sound Race for the Cure in 1994, the only thing le� to wonder was “will it rain”?“It was very nerve wracking because it rained the day before and throughout the night,” says Jan. “It was a new race, and I didn’t know how committed people would be.”Tath agrees: “I was so worried that rain would keep people away from our Race. But boy, was I wrong!” More than 3,000 women showed up in pouring rain for the � rst Race, more women that ever ran in a Seattle Race before. “Seeing all those people united together around breast cancer, this huge sea of pink, was so powerful! It made me cry,” says Tath.Jan was not only at the � rst Race for the Cure, but she also was responsible for organizing the whole race, as the Race Chair. “I attended my

� rst Komen Puget Sound meeting, and they asked who would like to chair the � rst Race for the Cure. I just raised my hand,” says Jan. “I was a runner back then, and I was really drawn to the idea of a race to bene� t an important cause like breast cancer.”Tath chaired the � rst breast cancer Survivor’s Celebration at the Race. “It was so powerful to see so many breast cancer survivors in one room, nothing like that had ever been organized in Seattle,” says Tath. “We were one large support group for each other. During the lunch, we asked every survivor to stand up. � en we asked � rst year survivors to sit back down. � en � ve year survivors were asked to sit down, then 10 year survivors, and so on until there was just one woman standing. When we asked her how long she has been a survivor, she told us 35 years. � e whole room went crazy with applause

and tears. It is so valuable to celebrate long term survivors. It gives such a powerful message of hope.”“� ere is an atmosphere of joy and hope at the Race that is infectious,” says Jan. “When you are there, you � nd yourself among a happy community. � e Seattle Center is this beautiful park-like setting where you can feel you are away from everything. � ere is entertainment, food, and sponsors giving things to everyone. People are smiling and walking around with � lled goodie bags. It is just a great day of fun! I’ve always enjoyed myself.”“One day, we will � nd a cure for breast cancer,” says Tath. “When that day comes, the very next thing a woman will hear a� er a breast cancer diagnosis is: ‘It’s OK, we now have a cure.’ I really do believe this is possible, because I have seen how far we have come in the last 20 years.”

By Linda BallReporter newspapersMy favorite movie of all time is still the 1983 Best Picture winner, “Terms of Endearment,” starring Shirley MacLaine, Jack Nicholson, Debra Winger, Je� Daniels, Danny DeVito and John Lithgow.� e story centers on MacLaine’s character, Aurora Greenway, a widow, and her relationship with her daughter, Emma, played by Winger. Nicholson’s character, Garrett Breedlove, is a retired astronaut, a hard-partying lady’s man who eventually wins Aurora’s heart and vice-versa, in a very funny courtship. But it is Emma who steals our hearts, as she deals with her cheating husband, Flap (Daniels), and then discovers a lump in her armpit. For our Emma, who has three small children, it’s been caught too late. Other than this development, the movie really is a comedy. In one scene Emma is at lunch with her best friend, Patsy, and some of Patsy’s high-brow New York lady friends. � ese women all know that Emma has cancer, but they never say the word. Instead they skirt around the issue and make comments like how lucky her kids are to have such a wonderful mommy.A� er the lunch Emma is upset. When Patsy confronts her, she asks Emma, what do you want me to say or do? Emma says, “Tell them it’s all right. Tell them it ain’t so tragic. People DO get better! Tell them it’s okay to talk about the CANCER!” � e next scene in the movie is hilarious, as a woman at a party comes up to Emma and says, “Patsy tells me you have cancer!” Patsy, standing nearby, hacks up an hors d’oeuvres when she hears this.Who knew that 28 years later I would get the diagnosis of breast cancer. Only, unlike Emma, I survived. Now that movie line has even more meaning to me. I � nd that some people are uncomfortable if I bring it up. Don’t be. It happens. According to the American Cancer Society, the chance of a woman having invasive breast cancer some time during her life is about one in eight. � e chance of dying from breast cancer is about one in 36.

I have found that it has become a big part of who I am now. It’s not something to be ashamed of. At � rst I blamed myself – what did I do to bring this on? What didn’t I do that I should have? � ere is no good answer, other than that cancer has its own agenda. I’ve always exercised, and for the most part

maintained a healthy diet, so I couldn’t understand why me?On June 2, I will be participating in the Susan G. Komen Puget Sound Race for the Cure, a 5K run/walk to raise money for breast cancer research.

Seventy-� ve percent of the money raised as a result of the race and fundraising associated with it, will stay in Puget Sound to fund screenings, education, and treatment support. � e remaining 25 percent will fund global research to better diagnose, treat and ultimately cure breast cancer. It’s the least I can do, because I would very much like to see an end to this disease that robs so many women of years of their life while in treatment, or their entire life. It really sucks.But please know that talking about cancer to a survivor or even someone going through treatment is o� en what they need. Even though you can’t understand unless you’ve been through it yourself, lend a compassionate ear.Because it’s really okay to talk about the CANCER!Linda Ball is a sta� writer with the Issaquah & Sammamish Reporter.

IT’S OKAY TO TALK ABOUT CANCER

� e Seattle International Film Festival will feature the true story of University of Washington geneticist Mary-Claire King and her world-changing discovery of the BRCA1 breast cancer gene.

� e special bene� t screening will support the � ght against breast cancer, and will be shown June 6 at 7 p.m. and June 8 at 1:30 p.m. at the Egyptian � eatre in Seattle.

� e � lm stars Helen Hunt and Samantha Morton and follows a 15-year war against this cruel illness, waged on both scienti� c and emotional fronts by a pair of women demonstrating extreme bravery under pressure.

Annie Parker (Morton) has watched both her mother and sister succumb to breast cancer. When she herself is diagnosed, she struggles to hold her family together, displaying a force of spirit that belies the odds.

Meanwhile, geneticist Mary-Claire King (Hunt) is researching the idea of an undiscovered link between DNA and cancer, a process that � nds her scrambling for both funding and the support of her disbelieving colleagues. How the paths of these two women intersect is funny, irreverent and heartwarming without the burn.

Director Steven Bernstein’s feature debut de� ly balances the seriousness of the situation with the all-too-human response, � nding unpredictable grace notes of beauty and wit during even the darkest of times. Bernstein will be at the Egyptian to talk about the � lm.

In addition to Hunt and Morton, the supporting cast includes Aaron Paul, Rashida Jones, Bradley Whitford, and Maggie Grace.

Bernstein’s � lm pays ample tribute to one of the most important scienti� c discoveries of the 20th century as well as the people forever changed in its wake.

Tickets are $25.

When Alexandra Cuadra began volunteer-ing at Susan G. Komen in Seattle, the idea was that it would keep her busy until she found a job.

The former Redmond resident — who just moved to Bellevue earlier this month — now has a job working at the Mil-lionair Club Charity in Seattle but continues to donate her time to the breast-cancer foundation on a regular basis.

“They are really nice people,” Cuadra said about the staff and other volunteers at Komen. “It’s fun. It’s something I really enjoy.”

As a volunteer, her duties have ranged from manning information tables at various events to educate people, to stuffing envelopes.

While educating people on breast cancer, one of the challenges she has come across has been getting the mes-sage through to younger women. Cuadra — who is 23 — said it is difficult to get them to understand the importance of getting screened because young

people think they are invincible and will not get sick.

“That’s not the truth” she said.

Currently, Cuadra is working with Por La Mujer Hispana, a team for

Komen Puget Sound’s up-coming Race for the Cure on June 2 at Seattle Cen-ter. The event is a fund-raiser with 75 percent of the money raised staying in the Puget Sound area to fund breast-cancer

screenings, education and treatment support. The remaining 25 percent will fund global research to better diagnose, treat and help cure breast cancer.

Cuadra said they had 132 people on the Por

La Mujer Hispana team. Their goal for this year is to have 200 people and they are still recruiting members.

Before she began volunteering with the organization, Cuadra admitted she was not familiar with Komen. She had moved to Redmond in August 2012 from Peru and the nonprofit was just one of many organiza-tions she applied with to be a volunteer. Komen Puget Sound was look-ing for a volunteer who could speak Spanish to help with outreach to the Hispanic community and Cuadra fit the bill.

Volunteering is not anything new to Cuadra. She said when she was in Peru, she volunteered with kids.

“All my life, I try to be involved with helping people,” she said.

Cuadra said in addi-tion to educating people, she works to help people understand that Komen’s services are available to everyone, regardless of their age, race, socioeco-nomic status or any other factors.

“We help everyone,” Cuadra said, adding that

Komen’s outreach coordi-nator works with volun-teers of various cultural backgrounds to reach as many people as possible.

Cuadra said her family does not have a history of breast cancer so she did not know much about the illness. As a result, she had to learn about it.

“First, I needed to educate myself,” she said about her first step before she began spreading the word.

In the time she has been with Komen, Cuadra said she has been inspired by her fellow volunteers — some of whom have been with the organization for about 10 years. She has also found inspiration with the Komen Puget Sound staff. She said there are only 13 people on staff, but they are able to put on large events such as Race for the Cure.

Cuadra has received thanks and praise for volunteering with Komen, but she brushes it off because she feels she gets more out of it.

“’You guys saved my life because I was in my house doing nothing,’” she said about her response to the accolades.

Lori Vovak has never had breast cancer — but it’s affected her in the most personal of ways.

Vovak’s mother was di-agnosed with breast cancer in 1996, and though she beat the disease the first time around, her cancer came back in 2003. After months of battling, Vovak’s mother lost her fight in November 2003.

That’s why she works as a volunteer with the Susan G. Komen for the Cure.

“I think that started me wanting to do something,” Vovak said.

On New Year’s Eve of that year, Vovak and her family committed to take part in the Race For The Cure. Nine years later, the team — which includes Vovak’s son and daughter — is still going strong.

“Our little group has been getting bigger and

bigger,” said Vovak, who has rallied more than 50 people from the Olympia, Tacoma and Seattle for this year’s race.

But for Vovak, raising awareness about breast cancer is more than par-ticipating in the race once a year.

“I think it was last year I just thought to myself, there’s got to be something more I can do than just do-

ing the Race for the Cure.”At the time, Vovak

encountered a new co-worker, and breast-cancer survivor, and was working with the foundation. When Vovak showed interest in getting more involved, her co-worker connected her with the volunteer coordi-nators.

“It was just amazing tim-ing,” Vovak said.

She’s since started volun-

teering with the founda-tion on a more regular basis — stuffing bags for the race, sending mailers and handing out fliers on the Eastside. And while she admits most of the stuff she’s been working on has been behind the scenes, she’s eager to get even more involved. In fact, she said its her dream is to work for the Susan G. Komen Foundation someday.

Volunteering her time for a worthy cause is nothing new to Vovak. In addition to losing her mother to breast cancer, Vovak lost her husband to a rare blood disease in 1999. Vovak has been rais-ing money and volunteer-ing with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society for years.

“I just felt like — with losing so many people in

my family to breast cancer and cancer diseases — I just thought, there’s gotta be something more,” Vovak said.

As far as the race goes, Vovak said her team has rallied behind the moniker “Save The Tatas” — though she admits her daughter, Emily, 14, thought they should be called “Hakuna MaTATA.”

“It’s fun to have fun with it,” Vovak said. “Because it’s sad, but you still have to keep moving forward and somehow have fun with it, too.”

Vovak said she doesn’t set a monetary goal for her team because she doesn’t want to put too much pres-sure on people. However, most people on the team set their own personal goals. Vovak’s personal best was $1,000.

“Which I know isn’t that much,” Vovak said. “But every penny counts.”

Issaquah Reporter

Jenn Nudelman, 46, knew the odds were stacked against her. Breast cancer runs deep in her family so she knew her chance of getting the disease was one in three. Her grandmother died from breast cancer, and she has two aunts who are survivors.

Knowing this, she has been vigilant and aware, keeping up with her yearly mammograms and checkups. But the odds caught up with her.

“My family has a gene mutation that hasn’t been identified yet,” Nudel-man said.

A lump found in her breast was so small that it was only detected by a radiologist at Overlake Hospital as a result of her regularly scheduled mammogram.

The first biopsy came back atypia, meaning there was an abnormality in a cell. A subsequent MRI revealed three areas with increased blood flow, which can indicate malignant activity.

“It lit up the screen,” Nudelman said.

An MRI-guided biopsy confirmed that all three areas were malignant. What’s unique about her story is she never felt a lump. Even with her fam-ily history she was a bit surprised.

The diagnosis was multi-focal in-vasive ductal carcinoma. The recom-mendation was mastectomy.

Even though the cancer was only in one breast, Nudelman opted for a bi-lateral mastectomy.

“When I made that decision, even

though the other side didn’t have cancer I looked at it as a ticking time bomb,” she said.

Fortunately, since it was caught so early she didn’t have to endure chemotherapy; the cancer had not crept into her lymph nodes and her margins were all clear of cancer.

Nudelman waited three months for all of the pathology reports to be analyzed, then she moved forward with reconstructive surgery. Since her mastectomy was skin and nipple sparing, she was able to go the route of expanders, which over time are gradually filled with saline solution to expand the skin, in preparation for implants.

Two and a half weeks after hav-ing the expanders put in, Nudelman walked in the Komen Foundation’s 3-Day for the Cure, a three day, 60-mile walk to raise money for breast-cancer research. She walked all 60 miles and has done so a total of seven times — she was walking it before she got cancer, in honor of her grandmother. This year she will walk for the eighth time. She even has seven pink-ribbon tattoos on her leg for each time she has participated in the 3-Day.

“My body was tired,” she said of the walk after her surgery.

In her last 3-Day she was nominat-ed to be part of the survivor circle and was honored to carry the “optimism” flag into Century Link Field.

What she has learned from her cancer experience is how really strong

she is.“In a way, I consider cancer as a

blessing,” she said. “I was laid off half-way through my treatment, so I had time once I started feeling better to volunteer for Komen.”

Her work with Komen has taken her to large employers like the FAA and the IRS, and also a private school in Kirkland to talk to them about the importance of fund-raising for Ko-men. She found it gratifying to talk to high school kids.

“It’s being able to touch someone, to be able to talk to someone that age and make them see why this is impor-tant,” she said.

She was also the surprise speaker at Mammography Reporting System, which provides software for mammo-grams, breast MRIs, nuclear imaging and ultrasounds.

She said it was helpful for them to put a human face on breast cancer.

Nudelman, who lives in Issaquah, plans to re-enter the workforce soon, but in the meantime she started fostering and rehabilitating dogs. Along with a friend, they are starting a Shar-Pei rescue group called “Aleks Angels.”

She will be participating in Race for the Cure on June 2 in Seattle. Seventy-five percent of funds raised from Ko-men Puget Sound Race for the Cure stay right here, and 25 percent goes to national research. The percentages flip for the 3-Day, with 75 percent going to national research and 25 percent staying in the Puget Sound area.

LWSD committee recommends new literacy curriculum for elementary level

On April 18, the Lake Washington School Dis-trict’s (LWSD) Literacy Adoption Committee reached agreement on its recommendation for a new literacy curriculum for preschool through sixth grade.

The district’s Instruc-tional Materials Commit-tee (IMC) will review this recommendation and if approved, the recommen-dation will go to the school board for presentation on May 20 and board action on June 3.

The recommendations are:

Preschool: Opening the World of Learning (OWL), Pearson, copyright 2011

Grades K-5: Reading

Wonders Common Core Edition, McGraw-Hill, copyright 2014

Grade 6: Prentice Hall Literature Common Core Edition, Pearson, copy-right 2012

The 48-member K-6

Literacy Adoption Committee consisted of representatives of schools and district programs. Program representa-tion included preschool, English Language Learner, general education, Safety

Net, special education and gifted education. Six el-ementary school principals served on the committee.

The committee has been working since fall of 2011 to determine its recom-mendations for literacy curriculum. The commit-tee had narrowed down the curricula under con-sideration to three, which were piloted this spring. Three parent informational meetings gathered feed-back along with comments from the public display of

the materials. The commit-tee reviewed its identified priorities for the curricula, including alignment with standards.

The recommended programs are on display in the LWSD Resource Center. Parents can review the materials and submit

comments for IMC and the school board. The IMC will determine its recom-mendation to the school board at its May 2 meeting.

In making its decision, the committee also made several recommendations to ensure a successful implementation of this

new curriculum if it is approved by the IMC and subsequently the school board. Plans for profes-sional development are in process, including an opportunity for teachers to receive teacher materials in June prior to summer vacation.

“Woof-woof! Meow-meow! Tweet-tweet!”

The exotic languages of dogs, cats and birds filled the Redmond Senior Cen-ter last Saturday.

Whiskers, Wings and Wagging Tails, the City of Redmond’s annual pet fair, featured about 20 different vendors. These included pet adoption agencies, pet stores, local veterinarians, pet insurance companies, pet trainers, the King County library and several nonprofits associated with pet volunteerism.

“We call it a celebration of the joy companion ani-mals bring to our lives. We try to have wide variety of things,” said Teri Burke, a program coordinator of the Redmond Senior Center.

The event featured dogs, cats and parrots. The fair allowed attendees to bring their pets that were well-mannered, providing an opportunity for the com-munity to spend time with their little companions.

Vendors offered all sorts of good stuff for pet owners, including free samples, demonstrations of dog training and tricks, and even story-telling by a King County librarian.

“We have a full scope of vendors from pet insur-

ance to therapy animals to organizations that help folks with pet loss. So it’s a really nice combination of all kinds of different parts of having a pet,” said Burke.

The fair provided an opportunity for those who seek to volunteer with pets. Many nonprofits as-sociated with pet services participated in this event to promote their programs and to share their experi-ences with the community. These reflected a wide range of services, from a

medical assistance to pet rescue, but had one goal in common: working with or for pets for the betterment of the community.

Pam Hurnblad, a puppy raiser at Canine Compan-ions for Independence — a nonprofit organiza-tion that raises and trains assistance dogs for people with physical disabilities — was looking for more volunteers at the fair.

“It does take a lot of ef-fort to raise a puppy. But, if two people are doing it and sharing the responsi-

bility, then it’s a lot easier,” said Hurnblad.

Pet Partners, another nonprofit at the fair, takes therapy pets to visit patients in hospitals and nursing homes.

Sandy Kittelsow, a participant at the fair and volunteer with Pet Partners, visits St. Francis Hospital every week with her therapy dog named Chloe.

“They are all happy to see Chloe. Lots of them have animals at home that they are missing during

their stays. You can see their eyes light up when she (Chloe) comes in for a visit,” said Kittelsow.

Pet adoption was one of the major features of the fair.

“We do a lot of these events, mainly so that the pets can meet their potential adopters and raise awareness of pet adoption. Let people real-ize that there are so many great animals out there looking for homes,” said Bryan Thomas, marketing director of Motley Zoo, a nonprofit organization that promotes pet rescuing and adoptions.

The pet fair was a great event for pet owners, but it was also an educational place for children and families that don’t yet have pets. Vince Sicurello, a Redmond resident whose pets are currently limited to fish, brought his two

children to the fair so that they could mingle with dogs and prepare them-selves for the responsibil-ity of having a dog as a pet.

“Children who are just starting to think about getting a pet, it’s a really good place to come to see some animals and talk to some different folks to get some ideas. We try to make it an opportunity for everyone in our commu-nity to come here. It’s for the whole community,” said Burke.

“Too many dogs! I love it,” said young Michael Sicurello, who said he’s hoping his parents will get him a Chihuahua for a pet.

King County is set to break ground on a federally funded project aimed at preventing serious animal-vehicle colli-sions on Novelty Hill Road near Redmond.

The federal grant covers 100 percent of the eligible costs for the design and con-struction of the public safety project.

Over the past few years, King County has amassed nearly 40,000 infrared im-ages from 12 video cameras situated in forested areas along the Novelty Hill Road corridor. In addition to small critters, these cameras have captured images of several of the 175 different species that live in the area, including bear, deer, bobcat, coyote and cougar capable of causing life-threatening accidents.

Novelty Hill Road bisects an extensive 457-mile net-work of protected habitat that stretches from Enumclaw, north to Woodinville and east to the Cascades. Given the growing potential for serious accidents in the area, county engineers will con-struct a wildlife overpass be-tween Redmond Ridge Drive Northeast and 234th Place Northeast. Work should take

about a year to complete.At least 20 major collisions

involving wildlife have been reported along Novelty Hill Road since 1999 – and it is estimated many more acci-dents have gone unreported. Washington State Patrol receives reports of nearly 1,200 human injuries and two fatalities on average each year.

Development in the area surrounding Novelty Hill Road has been relatively sud-den and intense. In the past 10 years, it is estimated an additional 10,000 residents — the equivalent of the popula-tion of both Duvall and Carnation — have moved to developments that encircle the crossing area. Additional traffic has accompanied that

growth and traffic engineers expect about 15,000 ad-ditional daily trips by 2030 on the busy roadway, making a solution to animal-vehicle collisions even more urgent.

“This project drew the most support of any grant-funded county road project in recent memory,” said Roads Engineering Services Manager Rick Brater. “And the data tell us conflicts be-tween motorists and wildlife will only get worse as the area becomes more developed and traffic increases. This project gives us a way to pro-tect drivers from unnecessary tragedy in the future.”

The safety project will involve construction of a concrete overpass and fea-tures that will provide a con-nection to undeveloped land to ensure access to habitat. Fencing will be placed along the north and south sides of the road to prevent animals from entering the travel lanes. Other than the poten-tial for brief weekend closures this summer, the project is not expected to significantly impact traffic flow.

The use of wildlife cross-ings is growing in popular-ity throughout the nation and world as travel patterns change and roads in previ-

ously rural areas become busier. The potential for hu-man and economic loss has prompted scientists and en-gineers to consider a number of tools to mitigate conflicts between roads and wildlife. The most recent example in this state is a Washing-ton State Department of

Transportation project to add crossings along a 15-mile stretch of Interstate-90 from Hyak to Easton.

For more than 16,000 chil-dren in north and east King County, summer vacation means something other than a chance to spend the day outside playing with friends: it means no longer knowing for sure that you will have breakfast or lunch.

End Summer Hunger — running through August — is Hopelink’s annual grassroots campaign aimed at ensuring that local kids in low-income families have enough to eat while they’re on summer break. The fund-raising drive brings together local businesses, organiza-tions, schools and individu-als to help provide food for kids who receive free and reduced-fee breakfasts and lunches during the school year. Over the next several months, Hopelink is encour-aging groups and individuals alike to get involved with the campaign.

The proceeds from End Summer Hunger will stock the agency’s five food banks for the high-demand sum-mer months when kids

are not in school and the subsidized school programs are not available. In 2012, the End Summer Hunger campaign served nearly 5,000 children in 2,300 homes.

Hopelink President and CEO Marilyn Mason-Plunkett said End Sum-mer Hunger helps families continue to move toward self-sufficiency by ensur-ing they have enough to eat and are able to focus their energies on getting back on their feet.

“Food is essential. It is a building block. When fami-lies are hungry, stability is impossible,” Mason-Plunkett said.

“We know that consistent access to nutritious food enables our low-income families to direct their lim-ited resources toward other basic needs — such as heat, transportation, and child care — without worrying about whether their children have enough to eat,” she said. “And we know that having nutritious food and enough to eat is essential to helping

kids learn, thrive and grow into healthy adults.”

In 2012, Hopelink’s five food banks provided nearly 2.7 million pounds of food to more than 15,000 people in the community. The End Summer Hunger program provides additional healthy breakfast and lunch-type foods to current food bank clients with school-aged children; including fresh fruit and fruit juices, peanut but-ter, cereal, ramen and snacks.

“Hopelink’s proven

formula for addressing gaps in food security impacts thousands of families in Se-attle, but hunger doesn’t take a summer break — it’s always in session,” said Bob Peters Seattle and Washington state president, Bank of America.

For more information on how to get involved in Hope-link’s End Summer Hunger campaign, contact Emily DeWitt at [email protected] or visit: http://www.hope-link.org/take_action/end_summer_hunger.

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene announced that Alex Eppenauer of The Bear Creek School in Redmond as the winner of the 2013 Congressional Art Competi-tion for the 1st Congressional District.

DelBene joined local stu-dents, families and friends at a reception honoring all the participants who submitted artwork for the competition.

Eppenauer won with her piece, “Through Her Eyes.” For submitting the winning entry, Eppenauer will have her art displayed in the Can-non Tunnel of the U.S. Capi-tol building in Washington, D.C. as part of a yearlong national exhibition. Later this year, she will join DelBene in Washington, D.C. for the official unveiling of her win-ning artwork.

“I was incredibly im-pressed with the creativity and overall quality of work submitted by all of this year’s participants and want to thank them all for sharing their talents with us,” said DelBene. “Alex’s piece dem-onstrated a great amount of artistic skill and it’s going to be a great addition to the ex-hibit in our nation’s capital.”

The annual Congressional

Art Competition began in 1982 and involves hundreds of thousands of high school students from across the nation. The local competi-tion is open to all students in grades 9-12 who either reside or attend high school in Washington’s 1st Congres-sional District.

In addition to displaying the winning entry in the U.S. Capitol for one year, three runners-up and seven honorable mentions will have their artwork displayed in DelBene’s congressional office.
