By Rebecca GourleyReporter

It’s a literal race against time – capturing the perfect photo at magic hour.

If you’re lucky, you are in the right place at the right time.

If you’re a pro, you get to the right place 10 minutes early. And if you’re an amateur, you get there an hour early without gloves and have to wait for the magical moments before the sun sets.

Fall is upon us, which means fewer weekend hiking trips for the summer adventurers out there. But, colder months mean clearer skies in some cases, and that means great opportunities for some stellar photos.

You’ve seen the photos that look like the stars are all shooting in a circular motion, right? The ones that look like paintings rather than photographs? Well those, I assure you, were not taken with a cell phone camera. Most were likely not even taken with a point and shoot camera (the smaller, compact version of the big ones). They were all probably taken with a single-lens reflex camera – or SLR.

Digital SLRs are becoming more and more popular to the average consumer, with lighter weight ones and more user-friendly models. Choosing one, however, can be a daunting process.

It’s all pretty technical.Frame rates, ISOs, megapix-

els, sensors, and then there’s also the lens that may or may not be included.

With advanced technology com-ing out, it’s actually quite possible for some point and shoot cameras (the ones with no detachable lens) to do the job of some of the beginner level DSLRs. But, you have to know what to look for.

If you want to shoot mainly landscape photos, with the ability to manually adjust your settings for those picturesque star trails photos, there are a few things you need to look for when choosing a camera for your adventure.

First, image stabilization. In all things camera-related, look for opti-cal image stabilization as opposed to digital – the same rule applies to zoom.

Second, how many megapixels does the camera boast? (or how big can the photos be printed at a high resolution). For most landscape photography, anything less than 15 MP (megapixels) won’t get the job done properly.

The third most important aspect to a point and shoot camera is the maximum aperture. A high aper-ture setting (at least f/8.0) is ideal for landscape photography. This ensures everything in the frame will be in focus, no matter how far away it is – except planets obviously.

Aperture works like your eyes: The smaller the number, the wider the lens (or pupil) will open, the shallower the depth of field will be. The larger the number, the narrower the lens will open, and the longer the depth of field (and the less light it will let in).

Think about when you go to a dark movie theater. The moment you step outside, you are blinded by the sun and it takes a few moments to adjust.

In the movie, your pupils were wide open to take in as much light as possible. When you leave, your pupils haven’t adjusted, so they let in more light than necessary. Once they shrink back to normal, you can see just fine in the bright sun.

Aperture’s best friend is definitely the shutter speed. You have to be able to set these two independent of each other in order to achieve the results you want – especially on the star trails photos.

When you are shooting landscape photography, a higher aperture (also referred to as f-stop) is needed. This means there will be less light, so the shutter has to be open longer to let in enough light to properly expose the photograph you’re taking.

A slow shutter speed (at least 60 seconds) will let you capture some pretty amazing shots on your adventures.

To put this in perspective, the shot above was taken with a DSLR

with ISO 100, an aperture of f/8.0 and a shutter speed of 4 seconds. My DSLR can actually go up to f/29 and I can open the shutter for an infinite amount of time (using a remote control and “bulb” mode), but I wanted to simulate what a decent point and shoot can do. If you can find a point and shoot with bulb mode, that would be ideal for those star trails photos.

Feel free to experiment with the settings a lot. You may be surprised what works and what doesn’t.

Other equipmentOptical image stabilization will

only get you so far. For anything longer than a shutter speed of 1/30

second, you need to have a tripod. Or, since you’ll be outside, a sturdy and semi-flat rock will do. Anything that won’t move and can hold your camera up will suffice. A tripod will just be more flexible. Rocks can get heavy. You don’t need an incred-ibly fancy tripod either. Spend your money on the camera itself, not the thing that holds it up. You can buy small tripods for less than $10 or spend your life savings on one, it’s really up to you.

Patience is also something you need to come prepared with – es-pecially shooting star trails photos.

Sumner not to reopen recycling center, keep trail head spacious

By Ray StillReporter

The city of Sumner’s recycling center at the end of State Street will not be re-opening as planned.

The center was closed mid-June while the Wastewater Treatment Facility was expanded. The center was planned to be re-opened sometime in the fall.

Instead, the city decided to keep the recycling center closed in order to give more parking space to visitors of the Sumner Link Trail and residents picking up their Bonney Good Sumner Grow soil amendment.

“Looking at the park-ing lot, looking at the trail being finished and that being more of a trailhead, it didn’t make sense to bring the recycling cen-ter back,” said Sumner Communications Director Carmen Palmer. “Having that trail is a huge priority for the entire town, so hav-ing good access to the trail

actually moves us forward.”However, current con-

struction means the kiosk for the Sumner Grow is still temporarily closed.

Alternate locationsSumner residents can

still recycle their newspa-per, cardboard and glass at the recycling center off East Main Street in Puyallup, approximately a mile and a half away from the old State Street center.

There is also a DM Disposal facility on 70th Ave East, off of Levy Road in Fife. This site closes at 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, and is sometimes open on weekends.

Bonney Lake also offers two glass recycling areas; one at Allan Yorke Park and the other at the Justice and Municipal Center.

Fall Clean UpUnrelated to the closed

recycling center is the annual Fall Clean Up, when DM Disposal takes extra garbage, yard waste, and

even old appliances away for free.

For residents to request DM Disposal to take their extra trash away, they must affix official Fall Clean Up coupons onto trash bags or appliances.

The coupons will be mailed out to Sumner residents, but can also be downloaded on the Sumner website at http://ci.sumner.wa.us/wp-con-tent/uploads/2015/10/Fall-Clean-Up-2015.pdf.

DM Disposal accepts up to three extra bags or trash containers up to 32 gallons each, with a officially desig-nated coupon on one of the bags or containers.

The company will also accept the same amount of extra yard waste.

Extra trash and yard waste will be collected on Nov. 10.

DM Disposal will only remove one old appliance left out of the curb, and will pick up the appliance between Nov. 9 - 13.

You’re invited to Bigfoot’s Birthday Party at The Sequel books!

1456 Cole St., Enumclaw • 360-825-3144OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK!

Nov. 7th at11:00AM Book signing with Eric Ode,

author of “Bigfoot does not like

birthday parties”

It’s Bigfoot’s birthday, and the townspeople of Mossy

Pockets are throwing Bigfoot an appropriately BIG party.

Everyone, from the mayor to the acrobat, plays a part in festivities that keep getting

bigger and bigger and bigger. But the guest of

honor is hiding because Bigfoot does not like

birthday parties! How will he ever be able to enjoy his

special day?

denied that each defendant involved in the SR 410 proj-ect is responsible for the death of the Ellis family, and specifically denies the com-pany was negligent or that it caused injury.

Staton, Hamilton, WHH Nisqually, McGee and the city of Bonney Lake have declined to comment on the suit.

The Pierce County Prosecutor’s Office has not released a decision concern-ing any criminal prosecu-tion in the case.

In October the state Department of Labor and Industries levied fines against four of the five construction companies involved in the project.

What is a wrongful death suit?

There are two kind of suits in cases like this, according to Kevin Sullivan, the attorney who represents the plaintiffs in this case.

The first type of claim is a wrongful death suit.

“That is for the losses suf-fered by the survivors of the decedent (dead person),” Sullivan said. “The entire

immediate family was killed in the accident. In the stat-ute, those would be what you would call ‘first tier beneficia-ries.’ Next level beneficiaries are parents of the deceased.”

According to Sullivan, par-ents of adult decedents can only collect damages if they can prove to the court they were financially dependent on the deceased.

The only surviving fam-ily member that meets these requirements is Hess, who starting living with her daughter and Josh in 2013, rent-free.

Beginning in 2014, when the family bought a home in Bonney Lake, Hess started paying $500 in rent and the family paid all other house expenses, according to Hess’ declaration.

Currently, Hess is living with Brown and his wife, and wrote in her declaration that she still cannot financially support herself.

In addition to wrongful death suits, families of the deceased can also claim dam-ages under the survival stat-ute, no matter their financial status.

“Under the statutes, (this covers) the funeral expenses, their pre-death conscious pain and suffering, and the

net-loss accumulations to their estate,” Sullivan said.

According to Sullivan, funeral expenses were mini-mal because they were picked up by the Ellis’ church, Eastpointe Foursquare Church.

Additionally, there are no pre-death conscious pain and suffering costs, because the Ellis family died instantly when the concrete barrier fell on top of their truck’s cab.

This only leaves the value of the Ellis’ estates in ques-tion. Josh, Vanessa and Hudson each have their own, but related, estate.

“What is the value of their estates? That’s a battle between different experts,” said Sullivan. “Work-life expectancy is one variable. The second is the discount rate that is applied to the income stream. The third is the personal accu-mulation rate of the individual decedent. All of those are in controversy, which they nor-mally are.”

Sullivan declined discussing the specific monetary amounts the plaintiffs are looking for, but said, “The family trusts that the jury will do the right thing.”

The trial is currently set for Aug. 25, 2016 in the court-room of Pierce County Judge Ronald Culpepper.

SUIT FROM 1

erty tax collections for 2016 will increase to a little more than $1.8 million.

That means Enumclaw property owners will pay approximately $1.54 in prop-erty tax for every $1,000 of

assessed property value. The owner of property valued at $300,000 paid about $452 this year and can expect to pay approximately $462 in 2016.

The city’s property tax levy will be the topic of a public hearing during the council’s Nov. 9 meeting. The public

is welcome to attend and address the council with questions or concerns. It will be the second public hear-ing on the proposed property tax.

A third and final public hearing is planned for the council session that begins at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 23.

When winter approaches, you probably take steps to prepare your home - insulating water pipes, sealing windows and doors, or covering and storing outdoor furniture. If you’ve also been following the backyard chicken trend - and enjoying fresh eggs all summer long - you’ll want to take steps to care for your flock when

the weather cools. And if you’ve been considering getting some chickens, but think you have to put it off until spring, think again - you can still start a flock, or keep an existing one thriving, and laying, throughout winter.

You’re part of a growing trend if you already have a flock; nearly one in five people would be more

likely to raise chickens if they knew more about it, according to a 2015 national survey conduct-ed by Tractor Supply Company. Interest with parents is even high-er, as 27 percent would consider raising chickens with their fami-lies if they had more information on the hobby.

The chicken experts at Tractor Supply Co. offer some advice for keeping a flock healthy and pro-ducing through winter months. Anyone raising chickens this winter should focus on four areas of care:

Keep coops warm, dryChickens are fairly resilient

and can tolerate some very low temperatures, especially when they huddle together for warmth. Helping them stay warm and dry through winter means they’ll

be safer and happier - and more inclined to keep laying eggs. The best way to keep chickens warm in winter is to keep their coop dry and comfortable. Wet living conditions can lead to disease and death within days. You can use tarps to help keep water and dampness out of your coop.

The general rule is that coops need to be slightly above freez-ing to keep chickens happy. Keeping your coop above 35 degrees will protect your chickens from cold weather and keep their drinking water from freezing. Only if the tem-perature falls below 35 degrees should you consider purchasing a heater or heat producing light to provide extra warmth. Under these frigid circumstances, a great option is the Producer’s Pride Brooder Lamp.

Airflow is keyEnsuring adequate ventilation

is a critical component of cold weather chicken care. Overly warm coops can not only inter-fere with chickens’ tolerance for cold weather, but can also lead to a buildup of humidity, which cre-ates an environment for harmful mold to grow. Cleaning the coop regularly helps combat mold, while encouraging airflow with screens placed on coop windows can facilitate airflow during the day. But remember to close those windows at night when tempera-tures fall.

Provide lots of lightSome chicken breeds, such

as the Brahma or Chantecler, are natural winter egg layers.

Holidays a prime time for mutt mannersThe holidays are just around the corner

and now is a perfect time to work on your dog’s manners.

Greeting holiday guests calmly and politely can be quite the challenge for many dogs and a potential source of embar-rassment for their owners. No one wants their dog knocking over a friend or family member.

So how do we help Fido learn to greet guests like a perfect host? To begin, it is important to understand that your dog is probably really excited to meet new people. To set your dog up for success, make sure you help him burn off any excess energy. A tired dog is a good dog. For many dogs, a calm walk is not enough exercise to tucker them out. Try games that encourage your dog to run (like fetch).

When you have drained your dog’s ener-

gy, it is time to start working on holiday manners. The best way to get your dog to greet guests with all four feet on the floor is to teach him that sitting is the proper way to say hello. A dog that is sitting is not jumping up. Start by reviewing the sit command with your dog. If your dog does not know sit, you can quickly teach him by putting a treat in front of his nose and moving your hand up toward the ceiling and slightly backward (toward the back of the dog’s head). When a dog’s nose moves in this way, they will naturally sit. When your dog sits, give him lots of praise and reward him with the treat. Review this command with your dog until he sits con-sistently on cue.

The next step is to practice with another person. At first, it is best to practice with someone the dog already knows. This

makes it less exciting for the dog. To start, instruct the other person to stand across the room. Put your dog on a leash and ask him to sit. When he is sitting calmly, ask the other person to approach. If your dog gets up, instruct the other person to ignore him and walk away. Ask your dog to sit again. Repeat as necessary until your dog can sit politely for the greeting. If your dog is struggling with this step, you may need to practice sit with the other person in the room before they attempt to greet him.

When your dog can maintain a sit while the other person approaches, then he is ready to greet!

Instruct the other person to give your dog plenty of attention and praise. This is his reward for sitting. If at any point the dog gets up, instruct the other person to

ignore the dog and walk away. The goal is to teach the dog that sitting nicely gets him lots of attention, but getting up does not. It also does not give the dog the opportunity to jump up. A dog that is sit-ting cannot jump. With enough practice, your dog will learn how to greet holiday guests politely.

If you do not have time to prepare your dog for guests, or if you find that your dog just can’t contain his excitement on the big day, don’t worry. Put your dog behind a baby gate or exercise pen until he his calm. When the dog can sit calmly on the other side of the gate, then he can be released to greet your guests.

Don’t attack freedomI dispute the premise(s) as stated in

“Freedom without order is just chaos” as stated by Richard Elfers (Courier-Herald, Oct. 21). To denigrate freedom and conclude “any virtue becomes evil without limits” is both naive and wrong and another example of the liberal/progressive concept that con-trolling human virtues is the respon-sibility of government and that indi-viduals need “intervention” in order to comply with government edict and benevolence.

If you look up the definition of free-dom you will find the following defini-tions: 1. moral excellence; goodness; righteousness. 2. conformity of one’s life and conduct to moral and ethical principles; uprightness; rectitude.

How can this be construed as chaos? Only a liberal would be so arrogant to believe that these virtues have to be controlled by the government.

Associating freedom with the Umpqua murders is ridiculous; this may come from the looney idea that it was the gun that killed the people, not the mentally deranged person who com-mitted the horrendous act. We are a nation of laws and the purpose of laws is to provide a “system of rules that a particular community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties.” Let’s not attack the positive virtues such as freedom but enforce the laws that protect citizens from aber-rant behavior of those in society who would harm the freedom-seeking indi-viduals who are exercising our rights as given to us by our Constitution (the American template and foundation for all laws). Our framers would surely cringe at the concept that freedom would be disparaged in such a manner as this editorial nonsense!

Abolish tier systemEditor’s note: the following was sent

to County Executive Dow Constantine and the County Council and forwarded to The Courier-Herald for publication.

I first wrote to you in February 2015, when I became aware of the road tier system. I never received a response. Since then I have had contact with many very courteous and helpful people from the Roads Department.

Prior to 2011, we did not have a road tier system. Everyone in King County was able to express their road safety concerns to the roads department. And everyone was able to have their safety concerns (mowing, de-icing, fix-ing potholes, cleaning out ditches, etc.) addressed as money was available. All of us pay taxes and all of us had a voice in the road safety conditions.

When developing the road tier sys-tem, someone must have picked out dead-end roads on a map and decided that those roads should not have any service. Those areas included New Horizons, Fairway Hills and our own Glacier Vista – vibrant neighborhood communities in Enumclaw.

It was the most gut-wrenching email I have ever received.

My mom went in for her annual screening and the results were iffy. After another couple tests, we found out she had breast cancer.

The prognosis was good, though. Which is more than most people can say. If there is ever an “earli-

est moment” cancer can be detected in a human being, this was it. For that, we are forever grateful.

I’ve always been a full supporter of women — and men — getting annual screenings for can-

cer. But now, more than ever, I know the importance.Because of the early detection my mom received, she

didn’t have to go through chemotherapy. She did, howev-er, opt to do several rounds of radiation. Coincidentally, she finished her last treatment last month, the month of awareness for the thing she just got irradiated from her body.

Even though she couldn’t bare to talk about it at first — hence the email — my mom now uses her early diagnosis to remind people to get regular screenings.

“Do not put it off,” she said in one of her reminders. “I am a perfect example.”

However, “putting it off” is the new recommendation by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force.

The group — which is made up of 16 volunteer experts in prevention, evidence-based medicine and primary care — recently came out with a draft of their

“Human nature is basically good.”

This is Google’s core philosophy about human beings, accord-ing to Laslo Bock, Google’s head of people operation (human relations) in his recent book, “Work Rules!”

And because it is good, Google treats people with trust and positive expectations. This philosophic view

of human motiva-tion has helped make Google into a multi-billion dol-lar corporation with more than 57,000 employees. It has been rated as one of the best places in the world to work.

This attitude also causes Google to hire the best of the best employees, spending a great deal of time, careful research and effort to do so.

Having read Bock’s book, it’s hard to argue with him. Google’s results seem to prove his point. But is human nature really basically good? If it is, how then can we explain ISIS and its cruelty to other humans who had the misfortune to get in their way? How can we explain cyber hacking, bank robberies and world wars?

The belief that humans are basi-cally good causes us to trust others. Having taught high school students

In Glacier Vista we have approximately 60 homes. We are bordered by the White River, Highway 410 and farmland that cannot be developed. We have small children playing here, school buses ferrying students to and from school, delivery trucks and garbage and recy-cling trucks on our roads. We have been very con-cerned about being unable to have our ditches cleaned out, having no mowing (probably less than an hour’s worth), multiple potholes creating unsafe conditions for all of

us and being denied poten-tial de-icing on hilly roads in stormy weather.

Whenever we call the Roads Department, they have to tell us that we aren’t Tier 1 or 2 roads, so our con-cerns will not be addressed.

I would like you abolish the tier system and revert back to the previous system of giving service to every taxpayer. I trust the Roads Department to do their best to prioritize and meet every-one’s needs, considering the amount of money available.

Thank you for your con-sideration.

LETTERS FROM 8

for more than 40 years now, there is an advantage to taking this perspective. If human nature is good, then it’s my job as a teacher to be more patient with human frailties. Students tend to live up to adult expecta-tions.

Political parties are based upon differing beliefs about human nature. Republicans, being conservative, tend to view human nature negative-ly. Discipline is required to overcome our selfish natures. Punishment for wrongdoing is absolutely necessary in order to main-tain order and respect for authority.

Those Republicans who manage others see the need for safeguards and security to protect property and

resources. These views are based upon painful expe-riences with people who take advantage of kindness and naïveté. As a landlord I learned that some renters would take advantage of me if I were too trusting.

Democrats, on the other hand, tend to hold on to hope about the perfectibil-ity of human beings. What is needed is more educa-tion to train, discipline and perfect the human mind to higher levels of proper behavior. Those who act in a negative manner do so because that has been the example they have grown up with. Proper role models and mentors will help any person to improve behav-ior.

Our beliefs and experi-ences with human nature shape our perceptions. And those perceptions shape our behavior toward oth-ers. Our beliefs on this issue

place all of us somewhere on a continuum of good and evil in our dealings with others. None of us can escape having an opinion about this topic.

Personally, I’m not as optimistic as Google, nor as pessimistic as many con-servatives. I have helped raise several children and have come to the view that all humans are self-centered and self-absorbed as a default. That self-cen-teredness is neither good nor evil. It just is.

We need to take care of our needs and, at the same time, care for others. Finding the balance and the wisdom to know when to do which is a struggle we deal with our entire lives.

As we age, humans learn to control those self-cen-tered tendencies. We can be taught to care for oth-ers as much as we care for ourselves. We can also

realize that caring for oth-ers is really a way of help-ing ourselves. Selfishness can be a good thing in that context.

As we mature, we are better able to maintain that tension between self-absorption and concern for others. Times of great stress demonstrate to others and to us how mature, or how childish, we still are deep down. It takes a lifetime of making choices between the two perspectives to set our characters.

As Socrates noted nearly 2,500 years ago, “an unex-amined life is one not worth living.” So not being aware of the two roads we all face on a minute-by-minute, day-by-day and week-by-week basis makes it less likely that we will ever become the kind of employees that Google and the rest of the world are searching for.

new screening guidelines, specific to breast cancer.

The task force recom-mends women waiting until age 50 to start regu-lar screening, instead of age 40. They also recom-mend getting a mammo-gram every two years, instead of annually. And screenings should stop for women 75 years and older. The group does say women aged 40-49 should

get screening on an indi-vidualized basis, such as if they have family history.

The task force claims its recommendations are evidence-based, and they may very well be. But, anecdotally, I can’t imag-ine what would have hap-pened to the cancer in her body had my mom had waited another year to get a screening. I’m not a doc-tor, but I don’t think it would’ve been as early of a stage, one year down the road.

My advice — albeit it’s

not evidence-based — is to listen to your body and get screenings as often and as early as you need to. Many insurance companies pay for the first screen-ing mammogram of each

calendar year, no mat-ter your age. If you don’t have insurance, there are often specific programs designed to help women pay for their screenings at local facilities.

Wilkeson’s fire station is among 45 grant recipients of Georgia-Pacific’s Bucket Brigade program this year. The department will receive $4,000 to help fund equipment needs.

The grant money will help purchase several new sets of full-body protective gear, which cost more than $1,600 each. The station, which is staffed by volunteers pro-vided under an agreement

with the city of Buckley and town of Carbonado, has not had any protective gear of its own.

“While the arrange-ment with Buckley and Carbonado has greatly enhanced fire protection and EMS in Wilkeson, we still lack the funds to pur-

chase protective clothing for our volunteers,” Fire Chief Alan Predmore said. “This grant will help us get the proper gear to safely and effectively serve the Wilkeson community.”

This year, Georgia-Pacific awarded $207,000 in grants to fire departments

for equipment critical for the safety of the firefight-ers. Since the program started in 2006, Georgia-Pacific has given more than $1.75 million to fire depart-ments that serve the com-pany’s facility communities across the country.

This year, Bucket Brigade

grants ranged from $1,000 to $8,000. Grants are based on need and are funded by the Georgia-Pacific Foundation and local Georgia-Pacific facilities. Funds are typically used to purchase new protec-tive clothing and replace items.

Take time to slow down, savor God’s gifts“Lord, please give me patience

– right now!”Have you ever prayed such

a prayer? Soon we shall enter into the holiday season, during which life has the potential to become even more hectic and busy than “usual.” Exactly during such times we might benefit from slowing down and savoring the gifts God gives. That, in part, is what Thanksgiving is all about.

Recently, a team of research-ers from three universities con-ducted a study with the unusual title: “Can gratitude reduce impa-tience?” Adult participants in the study were divided into three groups. All were told they could receive $50 immediately or they could wait 30 days and receive $80. The control group was left

to whatever feelings they came in with, while the other two groups were told to write a short paper about a time when they felt either happy or grateful.

The participants who felt either neutral or happy showed a strong preference for immediate payouts – as in “Gimme that 50 bucks now!” But those who were in a grateful frame of mind showed more patience. What’s more, the

degree of patience exhibited was directly related to the amount of gratitude any individual felt (reported by Jessica Stillman, “The Cure for Impatience—Gratitude,” Inc. 4-7-14).

I think that is an interest-ing correlation: gratitude and patience. Biblically, patience is one of the fruits of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22). Patience, then, is an outgrowth of Christ-like char-acter that is made evident in our attitude and behavior.

What would patience look like? A calmness in the midst of a “storm”? A willingness to per-severe and “hang in there” dur-ing a time of change? Exercising restraint and self-control (anoth-er fruit of the Spirit!) when a situ-ation is not to our liking?

As the season of Thanksgiving approaches, we would do well to pause and take time to reflect: What have been the blessings of the day – the week – month – year?

How is my life richer in “intan-gibles” like patience? Love? Peace? Joy? If those qualities are in short supply, where does one acquire more? They are not sold at the local market or grocery store. (There really are some things that money cannot buy!) But they are more valuable than most tangible items we can purchase.

The source of these all good gifts is the Creator God, the one who loves us and fills us with the Holy Spirit. Then these Christ-like attributes begin to grow in us. They are free but may, indeed, cost us something – our self-cen-

tered orientation in life is replaced by a Christ-centered one. So I am no longer the center of my uni-verse, but Christ is. As I step out of the center and allow Christ to be the one calling the shots, I dis-cover great riches as I experience growth in love, joy, peace and patience, which all can lead to a greater sense of gratitude.

Recently a local church had this message on their reader board: “Be Greatful for your blessings!”

While the school teacher in me says “They mean “grateful”! I love the fact that we can indeed, be “full” of gratitude, for the “great” number of blessings that we enjoy.

So, be patient, God isn’t fin-ished with us yet! Meanwhile, be grateful for all God’s gifts, tan-gible and intangible.

OBITUARIES FROM 11

Gladys Schenke

The city of Enumclaw and 4Culture of King County present pastel paintings by local art-ist Patricia Doyle. Her work will be on display in Gallery 2015 from Nov. 5 through Dec. 1.

Doyle recently received the People’s Choice Award for her entry in the Enumclaw GEMs Juried Miniature Exhibit. She has participated in many Enumclaw art events, including Art in the Garden, is a member

of the Enumclaw Arts Commission and is active-ly involved with the Arts Alive! Gallery.

“When I decided to make the art in my life more than a hobby I threw away the books, opened my eyes and took a real look at what I saw,” Doyle said in a prepared state-ment. “Real art is all around us – the deep blue and movement of the ocean, constantly chang-ing shapes of white clouds, the vivid color of a field

of f lowers, quietness of a forest, the wisdom of an old wrinkled face, two red tomatoes, and the trust you see in your pet’s eyes. That’s art.”

After working with most types of painting, Doyle has settled on pas-tels.

“In the past fifty years I have tried most avenues of painting and I believe I have come full circle,” she wrote. “Pastel, with its true vivid colors, softness, and difficulty in use, com-

bined with the challenge and drama, is what keeps me painting.”

Gallery 2015 is located in the Council Chambers at Enumclaw City Hall. 1339 Griffin Ave. Hours for the exhibition space are 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Call to ArtistsThe city of Enumclaw

is calling for artists to exhibit original two-dimensional artwork in

Gallery 2016 and, addi-tionally, is interested in filling the display case in the City Hall lobby.

Sought are artists inter-ested in showing small, three-dimensional works of art like pottery or jew-elry.

Anyone interested is asked to email Gary LaTurner at [email protected].

Seeking vendorsThe city of Enumclaw is

calling for artist vendors

who would like to partici-pate in Whistle-Stop Art Fair 2016.

This is a large, family-oriented community event to feature the arts. There will be music, art and hands-on art for children. Space rents for $100 for the June 25-26 event.

Anyone with questions about any of the events can contact LaTurner. Information and appli-cations are listed on the city’s website at www.cityofenumclaw.net.

Area cross country run-ners are headed to American Lake Golf Course Saturday for the Westside Classic, a district meet that whittled the field for this weekend’s state championships.

The state meet for all classifications takes place Saturday at the tradition-al site, Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco.

Mother Nature provided no favors for those com-peting in the West Central District meet, as heavy rain, wind and cool fall tempera-tures were the order of the day. Adding to the intrigue were the accompanying mud and standing water on the course.

The following is a run-down of local results.

Enumclaw girlsThe Hornet girls took

on a technically-chal-lenging course and ran to a Class 3A district cham-pionship, qualifying for a team berth in the coming state meet. The team was

Area high schools were often at the top of the league standings during this fall athletic season.

Teams from the immediate area – mean-ing Enumclaw, Bonney Lake and Sumner in the South Puget Sound League 3A and White River in the SPSL 2A – either won, or shared, 11 championships during the

campaign now headed into postseason play.

First-place efforts were turned in by the following:

Cross country (boys): Bonney Lake dominated the SPSL 3A, taking the title with a perfect 7-0 mark.

Cross country (girls): Enumclaw went 7-0 to win the SPSL 3A.

Football: Sumner High took the 3A championship with a 7-0 league record (9-0 overall). The Spartans head into the

postseason ranked No. 4 in the state.Golf (boys): Enumclaw High went 12-0

to again capture the SPSL 3A title, while White River finished 13-1 to tie Fife for 2A honors. For EHS, it was the fourth league championship in a row.

Golf (girls): White River went 10-0 in league and overall to take the 2A title. It was the second year in a row the Hornet girls finished undefeated.

Soccer: There were two local title win-ners, as White River captured the SPSL

2A championship and Sumner finished 13-1 to win the 3A division. White River finished the regular season Monday, following press deadlines; the outcome would not impact the league champion-ship as the Hornets were 13-0 heading into the final contest.

Swim and dive: Enumclaw’s girls fin-ished 7-0 to win the league.

Tennis: The Sumner boys tied Auburn Riverside at 13-1 to take a share of the regular-season championship.

Orting 27, White River 21A disappointing regular season

ended on a sour note Friday night as the White River High Hornets were defeated 27-21 at Orting.

The loss put the wraps on a regu-lar season in which White River won just a single game, the lone vic-tory coming against a Clover Park squad that finished winless. The final regular season tally was 1-6 in South Puget Sound League 2A play, 1-8 overall.

Like most teams falling short of

making the playoffs, White River ends its campaign this week with a Thursday night “Week 10” contest. For details, see separate story on this page.

The Hornets fell behind 14-0 Friday when Orting scored the only touchdown of the first quarter, then added another in the second. White River responded in game-tying fashion, however, first getting a scoring pass from Ryan Redford to Ethan Clay. The Hornets’ second TD came on a Justin Tidwell sprint to the end zone from 25 yards out.

Alex Morris was good on a pair of extra-point kicks and the Hornets

and Cards were deadlocked at 14.Orting scored two more rush-

ing touchdowns – one in the sec-ond quarter and one in the third – to account for its 27 points. White River tallied the game’s final touchdown in the final period with Tidwell again doing the honors, this time on a short pass from Redford.

Enumclaw, White River set for Week 10 football games

Two of the area’s four high school football teams have qualified for postseason play, leaving the others to square off in “Week 10” contests.

The annual Week 10 games come at the conclusion of the regular season and are nonleague affairs, giving prep players a final week of competition.

Locally, Sumner High captured the South Puget Sound League 3A championship and this week begins postseason play. Bonney Lake won Friday to also qualify for the playoffs.

Those who will wrap up their 2015 campaigns with Week 10 tilts are:

• Enumclaw: the Hornets will face North Thurston High at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5. The contest against the Narrows League 3A opponent will be at South Sound Stadium in Lacey. North Thurston won big in its regular-season finale and finished the regular season with a record of 3-4 in league, 4-5 overall.

• White River: Week 10 brings a home contest against the Decatur Gators of the South Puget Sound League 4A’s Northwest Division. The Gators finished last in the four-team division with a record of 0-4 in league, 0-9 overall. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5, on the White River campus.

STATE FROM 12 McCleary on fight cardBuckley’s Jeremy McCleary, a gradu-

ate of White River High School, returns to the ring Saturday, Nov. 7, when he faces Health Cline in a featured under-card bout at Battle at the Boat 103 at the Emerald Queen Casino in Tacoma.

The 21-year-old McCleary brings a record of 7-1-0 into the featherweight contest and is coming off a unanimous decision over Benjamin Vinson in his most recent bout on Aug. 15.

“Jeremy made his professional debut

two years ago at Battle at the Boat when he was only 19 years old and is definitely an up-and-coming young fighter,” pro-moter Brian Halquist said.

McCleary was a three-time Junior Golden Gloves champion and posted an amateur record of 50-19 before turning pro.

Tickets are available through the EQC box office and all Ticket Master outlets. Doors open at 6 p.m. with preliminary bouts starting at 7 p.m.

SUMNER SCHOOL DISTRICTVISIT US ONLINE: SUMNERSD.ORG

The challenge of properly bal-ancing work and life, what some refer to as work-life balance, is a � nely tuned act many of us try to achieve.    Administrators, teach-ers, parents, and our students, need to strike a delicate bal-ance between busy lives   (work) and relaxation (play).   Achieving that balance brings satisfaction, equilibrium and makes us feel

whole.  It’s a sweet spot when we achieve it.  Honestly, I’m still working at it!

Work-life balance is a phrase we often hear but is it pos-sible with all of the demands of our modern culture?   Is achieving a balance in our daily routine actually attain-able?  Renowned author and speaker, Jon Gordon,   takes a fresh look at work-life balance, explaining it is realistically about � nding a doable rhythm in life, as opposed to a day to day balance.  He believes there is a “time to work hard – and a time to rest.”  Further, he advises to work towards balancing the scales of work-life on a big-picture basis, rather than a short term timeline.  I like the way he com-pares the balances to seasons:  there is a season to dive into work with both feet, and a season to recharge one’s battery through calm and rest.

Sometimes, we have no option but to dig in and solve a dif� cult problem.  For example, our district is hard at work � nding immediate solutions to accommodate the growing number of students in schools and planning ahead for the growth that is hitting our area.  November 18, the School Board votes on a resolution for putting a capital projects bond on the February 2016 ballot.    Bond funding would allow the district to focus on the schools with the highest facility needs.  Plan B is coming up with solutions to ac-commodate the growth while keeping class sizes low, and maintain facilities without extra funds.  It’s a dif� cult puzzle to solve, and something we must plan for now.  Additional portables and possible boundary changes are alternate so-lutions that the Bond Planning Committee is evaluating.  

The work is intense and demanding right now.  But as we move towards the beginning of the holiday season and cel-ebrate Thanksgiving, it is my wish that you will set aside work to focus on a season of rest and rejuvenation with friends and family.  As Sumner School District leaders, our hearts are � lled with gratitude for excellent teachers, prin-cipals, support staff, bus drivers, facilities people and board members.  We appreciate the support of our amazing com-munities, both Bonney Lake and Sumner.   As we take time to focus on gratitude, we allow our hearts to be refreshed to come back and continue the important work of public education.

PREPARING FOR WINTER WEATHER

READY! For Kindergarten is a FREE program for parents and caregivers of children birth to age � ve. Developed by the National Children’s Reading Foundation and the Kennewick School District, READY! For Kindergarten is an educational program pro-viding tools that help prepare children for Kindergarten and success in school.

A happy and successful learning experience is the ultimate goal for new Kindergart-ners. Often parents wonder what a typical 5-year old knows, or should know, the � rst day of school. There are readiness skills called Kindergarten Targets. They are not requirements, but learning goals. Children who are taught these skills at home get off to a great start at school. They start ahead and stay ahead, year after year.

The goal of the READY! For Kindergarten program is to provide information about how children learn at each age level, along with essential “tools” and activities to do together to make learning easy and fun. Children begin learning at birth – learn how to give your child a great start!

Class participants receive an early learning tool kit for each class they attend con-taining age-appropriate learning materials for them to use with their child at home. Fall class dates and location:

• Tuesday, November 3 at Liberty Ridge Elementary • Wednesday, November 4 at Bonney Lake Elementary• Tuesday, November 10 at Daffodil Valley Elementary* *Supper Available at DVE class only, 5:45-6:30 p.m. FREE For Children 0-18, $4.25 for adults• Thursday, November 12 at Maple Lawn Elementary

Families new to READY! classes must attend orientation, 6:00 – 6:30 p.m.Age level classes will be held 6:30 - 8:00 p.m.

Classes are FREE to families residing within Sumner School District boundaries. Childcare is provided for children 12 months and older, pre-registration is required. Visit the Sumner School District Web Site for more information at www.sumnersd.org

Winter weather brings road and driving conditions that might result in school delays or closures. Road conditions in the valley and the hill can be very different but still impact the entire district. Safety for your child is our primary concern. When win-ter weather impacts speci� c areas of the district, Limited Bus Transportation service areas may be announced. We try to make information available about school closure or changes to the schools schedule by 5:00 a.m. Families should remember to check the Website or call the District Hotline at 253-891-6001 for updated information about school operations.

CAPITAL PROJECTS BOND INFORMATION: BONDS ARE FOR BUILDING, LEVIES ARE FOR LEARNING

Bonds are used for capital projects—the construction of new buildings, major renovations or land purchases and are � nanced for an extended period of time.

The last time local voters passed a school bond was in February of 2007. Every project promised as part of that bond was completed on time—and under budget. A total of 6 schools were identi� ed during that time as having critical facil-ity needs. Four schools were modernized to update major mechanical systems, improve wiring and technology infrastructure to support computers in the classroom and bring building up to all current energy, seismic, � re and life safety building codes.  Lakeridge Middle School was replaced to reduce overcrowding and Sumner High School  received new heating, ventilation and air cooling system to improve air quality.

As families continue to move into the Sumner School District, we need to plan for future schools and new students. Currently developers contribute impact fees for each new single-family house built. Impact fees fund the purchase of portable classrooms to accommodate increased student enrollment, but the fees are not suf� cient to cover the cost of new construction or facility modernization.

School district bonds are different than other taxes: voters approve a total amount of money. If property values go up, the rate per thousand goes down.

School modernizations are not just a cosmetic � x. These projects will extend the useful life of our facilities for years to come.

SPOTLIGHT DINNER

Page 18: Enumclaw Courier-Herald, November 04, 2015

The regular season ended with the undefeated Sumner Spartans winning its ninth game of the season Friday.

The Spartans beat the Auburn Riverside Ravens 42-7.

The Ravens took an early lead with less than four minutes remaining in the first quarter.

The early touchdown for Riverside would be its only score of the night.

Sumner’s first score came before the end of the first quarter.

The Spartans trailed the Ravens 7-6 after a 30 yard touchdown pass from soph-

omore quarterback Luke Ross to junior running back Connor Wedington.

The point after was unsuccessful.

Sumner scored two more times before the half.

A 12 yard touchdown pass from Ross to junior receiver Tyson Rainwater added six.

The Spartans went for two but were unsuccessful converting.

A fumble was returned by senior outside line back-er Kolby Nikolaisen for 22 yards added another six to Sumner’s score.

The point after by junior kicker Nick Philips was good and the Spartans led

son with a 21-17 loss to Auburn Mountainview at Auburn Memorial Stadium.

All that’s left for the Hornets in the 2015 campaign is a Week 10 game; see separate story on page 13 for details.

Enumclaw concluded the regular season with a 2-5 mark in South Puget Sound League 3A play and went 3-6 overall. The Hornets opened the season with a nonleague victory over White River in the Battle of the Bridge, then added league wins over Peninsula and Auburn Riverside.

Thursday’s loss saw Enumclaw jump on the scoreboard first, thanks to a Garrett Berquist field goal.

Auburn Mountainview (5-2 league, 7-2 overall) was operating at less than full speed, with stand-out quarterback Gresch Jensen – who will play college ball at the University of Montana – on the side-lines due to injury. In his absence,

the Lions counted on running back Bitner Wilson, who scored on a pair of first-quarter, red-zone runs to put the hosts on top 14-3.

The Hornets outscored Mountainview in the second quar-ter, but it wasn’t enough to secure a win. Connor Pierce sliced the Lion lead when he scored on a 7-yard run, but Auburn Mountainview answered with the game-winner when Wilson took off on a 25-yard TD jaunt.

Pierce scored in the game’s closing minutes on a short touchdown blast to account for the final margin.

Wilson was the difference-maker in the contest, cracking the 100-yard barrier on 20 carries.

FOOTBALL FROM 13 Spartans and Panthers head into playoffs

However, once fall molt is over, many birds won’t start naturally laying until January or February, unless light is added to the coop. As a result, sup-plemental lighting is vital to keeping your hens lay-ing. Use multiple lights to achieve an even distribu-tion of light throughout the year. Incandescent lights are generally best. To encourage chickens to lay, set your light to a timer that goes on one hour before sunrise and turns off one hour after sunset. Generally, a 40-watt incan-descent bulb with a reflec-tor positioned 7 feet above the ground will light about 200 square feet.

Diet is keyProviding your f lock

with an adequate diet will benefit egg fertility once breeding season begins in the spring. That being said, your chickens’ dietary needs will change during fall and winter. In autumn, begin feeding them a high-density, vitamin-rich feed. The additional vitamins will help provide the nutri-ents birds need in order to cope with colder temper-atures. A good option is Purina Layena Plus Omega-3 SunFresh Recipe Poultry Feed, which is made with whole grain and flaxseed and is designed to provide enhanced nutrients in your flock’s eggs.

Water is the single most important feeding aspect for a flock. If enough fresh water

is not available, your chickens won’t eat, which will result in loss of egg production.

As always, when working in the coop and handling birds, be sure to remember

safe handling practices to prevent the spread of dis-ease, such as washing your hands with soap and water and cleaning the tools used to care for your birds.

Now is the time to save plants for the springThe beginning of

November is your last chance to save tender bulbs and plants that need win-ter protection. There are many uncontrolled vari-ables that go into a suc-cessful save, including how low the temperatures drop this winter, where you store your plants and even how much humidity is in the air. Look at this project as a fun experiment because you don’t have much to lose – even if your gerani-ums, fuchsia basket or can-nas fail to make an encore appearance next summer you will still have time to visit your local nursery and replace failures with beau-tifully-grown greenhouse plants.

If you are impatient for more color in the month of May these saves may not be for you – overwintered plants sometimes take until

mid-July to perk up from the long days in dark winter storage.

Three Ways to Save Geraniums

The easiest method is to place the potted plants close to the house and shelter them on cold nights with a tent of plastic bubble wrap. Water very little – I like to check the soil on holidays – about once a month. If our winter is mild, geraniums will survive and, with some extra feeding in May, they will thrive and bloom a sec-ond summer.

If your geraniums are growing in the ground, pull them up by their roots, put a string around the base of the plant and hang the uprooted gerani-ums from the rafters of a cold – but not freez-ing – garage or garden shed. You can prune

the top of the plants by one half to make them more manageable. In April cut down the hanging, bare root geraniums and repot into fresh potting soil. Grow indoors near a bright window until May.

If you a have a green-house or sunroom you can overwinter potted gerani-ums by keeping the soil on the dry side and not fertil-izing until you see signs of spring growth. You can also try taking cuttings from old plants and rooting them over the winter.

Two Ways to Save Fuchsias

The easy way is to hang or place the basket near a protected corner of the house and drape them loosely with bubble wrap, using clothes pins to secure the plastic in several spots on the rim of the pot. Help them go dormant by hold-ing back on water and fer-tilizer until you see new growth in late spring.

A more reliable way to coax your fuchsia into a second year of blooms is to cut back the entire hanging basket to 6-inch stumps. Next, place this butchered basket in a cold but not freezing spot or dig a hole one foot deep, deposit the basket and cover it with fallen leaves. Place a tarp on top to mark the spot and keep out the rain. Unearth the dormant

plants in March and bring them indoors to grow near a sunny window until all danger of frost has passed. You do not need to take any heroic measures to save hardy fuchsias (Fuchsia magellanica). These are the shrubby fucshias with tiny leaves and small flow-ers. Just leave then in the ground and resist the urge to prune back their woody tops until you see new growth in June.

Two ways to save canna, begonia

and dahliasThe safest way to recoup

your investment from plants that sprout from tender bulbs is to cut off the stems at soil level this month and dig and remove the tuber from the soil. Shake off any soil and allow the root to dry a bit indoors

for 24 hours. Then place the root inside a brown paper bag (plastic holds too much moisture) and store in a cool garage, basement or crawl space. The hard part is remembering where you put the bulbs and when to replant them. Mark the calendar now so you can replant begonias and can-nas indoors in pots during the month of April for set-ting outdoors in late May. Dahlias can be planted back into the soil outdoors in early May.

An easier way to save tender bulbs if you are a gambling gardener is to leave them in the ground or in their pots and cover the newly cut crown of each plant with sword fern fronds or a section of tarp. By keeping out the rain and snow your tender bulbs can

CONCLUDED

district last went to patrons with a bond request. Now, following a process that began well over a year ago, Carbonado school boosters are asking the community to step up and provide the dol-lars that will keep the five-building campus operating at contemporary levels.

Voters will decide the bond proposal in February 2016. Passage will require a 60 percent show of support.

District is home to 180 students

The Carbonado School District has a deep, rich history, going back to the days when the communi-ty rivaled Tacoma in size. Workers in the company town sent their children to a system that boasted a high school that few remember; a new school building – the brick structure still the cen-terpiece of the district – was built in 1929.

That building now houses sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade classrooms, along with a gymnasium, outdated

restrooms and small admin-istrative offices. Most stu-dents are housed in a series of portables: the building for first and second graders, as well as students with special needs, has been around since 1968; the portable home to fourth and fifth grad-ers came on board in 1991; and the building now hous-ing kindergarten and third grade was put in place in 1998. A building used for the district’s library and com-puter lab was built in 1989.

The Dan Argo Gymnasium, which was constructed in the late 1930, is where students eat lunch and is used for physical edu-cation and music programs. None of the bond money is dedicated to that facility.

The sprawling district is small in numbers but geo-graphically large. It shares borders with the Orting and Eatonville districts, as well as neighboring White River. Directly to the east is Mount Rainier National Park.

How much is being sought?On the February bal-

lot, the Carbonado School District will ask voters to approve a bond request

pegged at $4.4 million. That number is misleading, though, as the state would pony up $2.65 million of the total, leaving district prop-erty owners on the hook for the remaining $1.75 million, a sum that would be col-lected during a 20-year span.

Superintendent Scott Hubbard said bond organiz-ers were determined to come up with a financial plan that would address the district’s needs without increasing the tax load for area residents.

Carbonado property own-ers currently are paying for the bond that was used for construction of White River High School. The property tax assessment is $2.12 per $1,000 of property value and the bonds will be retired at the end of 2015, meaning the tax bill disappears.

Should the Carbonado bond be approved in February, a new collection of $1.80 would be imple-mented.

An important factor is the White River School District bond proposal that also will be on the February bal-lot. Through an agreement between the two districts, Carbonado property owners

will not be assessed if the White River bond passes.

Because Carbonado is a K-8 district, parents can send their children any-where beginning with the ninth-grade year. Most, but not all, Carbonado kids head down the hill to White River High, though some attend other, nearby high schools in Enumclaw and Bonney Lake.

How will the money be spent?

Hubbard is quick to term Carbonado’s plan as “mod-ernization,” as there is no new construction planned. The town presently is lim-ited due to water availability and there’s no housing boom in sight; so, there’s no need to increase school capacity.

Nearly all of the work will take place in the main build-ing.

According to a fact sheet provided by the district, almost a dozen items will be addressed should the bond get voter approval. Most vis-ible will be a transformation to the front of the building, where an awning stretches the length of the school and covers a concrete ramp that

slopes in both directions.The ramp was not part

of the original building, so its removal is met with enthusiasm by the National Historic Register, which sup-ports a return of buildings to their original appearance and limits what work can be done.

The center section of the building is elevated from the rest, making access difficult. Construction would lower the office space and the bas-ketball court that is home to special events. In addition, a lift will be installed so visi-tors can watch those events from a mezzanine.

“My No. 1 priority is making the building ADA accessible,” Hubbard said, recalling a time when a mother couldn’t join the rest of her family for an event. Accommodations were quickly made, but she was separated from everyone else.

Another priority is main-taining comfort for students and staff through upgrades to the heating system; also part of the plan is the addi-tion of air conditioning, a luxury the building has never offered.

Other money would be used for technology upgrades in four classrooms; security improvements that would allow for a lockdown during an emergency; replacement of some windows; and reno-vation of bathrooms so they are no longer accessible only from outdoors.

District is also proposing an M&O levy

Also on February’s bal-lot, the Carbonado School District will ask voters to renew the maintenance and operation levy last OK’d in 2012.

Like other school districts, Carbonado counts on M&O money to continue with cur-rent offerings. The present levy provides 25 percent of the total operating budget for the district and pays for things like transportation, school maintenance proj-ects, co-curricular offerings and some mandated by the state but not fully funded by Olympia.

Hubbard is hesitant to attach dollars and cents to the coming M&O levy, instead emphasizing that it is a replacement levy without a tax increase.

BOND FROM 1

Some of them were shot with a shutter speed of 15

minutes. And that’s just one photo. Do you have the patience for that?

Other applications�ere are some other fun

results you can achieve with the same settings as the star photos. You can set up your camera on a tripod with a high aperture setting and

a slow shutter speed (30 seconds or more), to make some interesting art with a �ashlight. Spell out words, draw pictures, symbols, play tic-tac-toe, anything really.

Just face the camera, point the �ashlight at it and start waving your arm like a crazy person. Works every time. Results may vary.

Location, location, location

You will want to �nd a place that has a low amount of light pollution (far away from city-centers).

If you live in the middle of the city, shooting from your roo�op will probably achieve pretty hazy results. Even some parks have 24-hour lights.

You can use this light pol-lution map to check where in

your area will have the least amount of arti�cial light. You can also use a clear sky chart at www.cleardarksky.com to check which nights in the next 48 hours will have the greatest possibility to see some stars in your area.

Other featuresSome cameras come with a

lot of bells and whistles these days – built-in WiFi, HD vid-eo shooting, touch screen. All of those things are great, but don’t let them be the deciding factor when you’re choosing a camera. If you want it to take great photos, go for the specs �rst, not the frills.

Star trail photos step-by-step

Tripod, remote control, “bulb” mode on camera, low light pollution, higher eleva-

tion, clear dark sky.Camera settings:f/8.0 or moreAt least 5 min. shutter

speed or bulb mode and a remote control w/ locking mechanism

ISO 400 or less (the higher the ISO, the more grainy the end result will be)

Adjust your settings from here depending on your results. If the photo comes out completely black, hold the shutter open for 10 minutes. If it comes out hazy, you probably have too much light coming in from another source (*cough* your cell phone *cough*). If it’s too light, then turn down the ISO to 200 or less.

Tweak the settings however you want to get the result you’re looking for. No one photo needs to be taken with the same settings.

MESSAGE FROM JANEL

November 4th 2015

The enthusiasm and creativity arcing across the Buckley Fire Hall Oct. 13 gave me goose bumps. It was electric to see and hear the 50 area residents, school parents and faculty members at the White River School District symposium brainstorm ideas for transforming Glacier Middle School into a contemporary learning environment and an activity hub for the community.

Symposium participants were divided into eight small groups and tasked with playing

architect; moving building pieces around a large, middle school site photo to test possible new campus layouts. Ground rules for the activity included retaining several buildings for renovation while replacing structures that are functionally obsolete, and creating a cohesive plan that allows the large classroom building and attached commons and central kitchen to be occupied during construction. Each group debated tough topics such as improved security, better traffi c fl ow, and a diversity of learning experiences for students and teachers, while light-heartedly embellishing their plans with amenities such as a coffee stand to revive sleepy parents. After reaching consensus, a spokesperson presented each group’s design, outlining the opportunities and challenges of their proposal.

Of course, the activity means little if the community rejects our February 2016 bond proposal, but the success we’ve posted since the last bond creates an enthusiasm among us to keep up the great work. Let me share some of our impressive outcomes from the past bond election. In 2004, the WRSD graduation rate was 82 percent, and a total of 59 students took Advanced Placement (AP) exams in a handful of AP courses. Just a decade later, following construction of the new White River High School, the district proudly boasts one of highest (extended) graduation rates in the state at 94 percent, and more than 400 students sat for exams in the 10 diverse AP courses we offered in 2014. Although the 2001 bond will soon be paid off, the investment continues to pay high dividends as students thrive at White River High School.

Dreaming, and dreaming big, for a middle school structure to build on that success was key to the symposium. Michael McGavock, principal of the Tacoma-based fi rm McGranahan Architects, invited participants to consider how a school facility contributes to student success. Contemporary education strives to prepare students with skills for yet-to-be imagined careers in an evolving work environment and world economy. Jobs are trending toward being more collaborative, more creative, and increasingly technology

integrated. Just as private offi ces and cubicle walls and are disappearing from the workplace in exchange for open collaboration, so too are straight rows of student desks in classrooms as educators rethink the effectiveness of period-long lectures. Learning environments need to be fl exible and adaptable for activities ranging from hands-on model building and science experiments, to fi ne arts critique and small group discussions. As much learning takes place outside the classroom as inside, informally, in shared activity areas and “maker spaces” where a student’s ideas are conceived, built, tested and re-imagined.

Students, parents and faculty are not the only ones who will benefi t from a transformed middle school facility. A frequently articulated goal among symposium participants was the concept of Glacier Middle School serving as a community center for the Buckley area. Suggestions for connecting with the local community included welcoming adult education on campus, promoting health and fi tness opportunities, supporting dance and drama productions and making current outreach programs more accessible to those in need.

Similar to the 2001 bond, an approved February 2016 bond proposal will fund improvements at every school in the district. In addition to a major rejuvenation of Glacier Middle School, each elementary facility will receive modest repairs such as new roofs, paint and carpet, and the replacement of most portables with permanent classroom space. Last, but not least, Hornets sports fans can look forward to cheering on the White River High School home team under a new covered stadium.

Sincerely, Janel Keating, Superintendent

White River School District

Eight different possible layouts of the Glacier campus were brainstormed and shared

Portables comprise about 40% of current classroom space. These would be replaced by a permanent, up-to-date structure.

Bond Information Update

Elk Ridge Elementary was originally built in 1969 and is need of a full renovation. The Elk Ridge site also has room to expand by 30,000 square feet. Doing both the renovations and expansion at the same time saves money and accommodates future growth. Proposed housing developments within the City of Buckley will impact Elk Ridge Elementary capacity in the near future. Elk Ridge also houses our elementary special education programs for students with significant disabilities, a growing population with

specific learning and classroom space requirements. Under the proposed renovations, Elk Ridge will also upgrade technology, and improve safety and security with the addition of new intercom, communication and phone systems. Playground equipment and fields will be improved. The plumbing, electrical and heating systems are nearing the end of their useful life, so replacements would be included. Elk Ridge would gain additional classrooms and improved playground facilities.

White River Pride Runs Deep

Watch D.O.G.S.

Dads Of Great StudentsElk Ridge is proud to have a Watch DOG program on campus and going strong for the third year in a row. Watch Dogs (Dads of Great Students) was started in 1998 in Arkansas and has grown into a nationally recognized program with an intentional focus on bringing dads and father � gures into schools.

Up until three years ago if you visited Elk Ridge you would notice lots of moms and even a few grandmas volunteering, but not many dads. The Watch DOG program has helped change this and welcomes dads, step-dads, and grandpas into our school. We ask our DOGS to volunteer one day during the year. The day starts with being out at buses to greet students, includes working with kids in several classrooms, eating with kids and lunch, and being out at recess. Our DOGS get to be stars for the day and kids love to have them on campus. Our DOGS help making connections with kids and you can often see them surrounded where ever they go. It’s important our kids have dads and male role models at school, especially since there are few male sta� members in our school!  Our DOGS also help by being an extra set of eyes in many of our key locations during the day. 

We are thrilled to have many DOGS sign up for multiple days during the year and share how their volunteer experience has helped them have a better understanding of our school and expectations. We typically have about 25 DOGS during the year with many returning for multiple days.
