RETURNING HOMEBY CELESTE [email protected]

For Issaquah native Robin Kelley, Salmon Days is about homecomings.

As a youth she couldn’t have left small town Issaquah quicker, but over a decade later the festival helped bring her back into the community.

She’s now dedicated 20 years of work to Salmon Days, most of which she’s served as its director.

Even before her return home, Salmon Days made its mark in her life.

Th e fi rst time she encountered the festival was on her wedding day. She planned to be married at her childhood church, St. Michaels, in 1976.

Th e day of the wedding, the road to the chapel was blocked for the festival. So when the newlywed couple drove off , cans rattling behind the car, they moved through the thick of festival, joining the celebration with

one of their own.Since it was founded 42 years ago, it

has grown from a small-town celebration, where neighbors would go to see each other, to one of the largest festivals on the Eastside.

Last year Salmon Days attracted 180,000

people over two days to a city of 30,000.Organizers plan this year’s celebration,

Oct. 1-2, to be of equal stature.Most of those visitors are from the

Eastside, and they come because they have a positive connection to the city, Kelley said.

Th e festival is no longer a town cel-ebrating its community, its about a region celebrating Issaquah, Kelley said. “It’s really powerful to get to share it.”

Kelley, whose maiden name is Hailstone like the historic feed store, grew up in Is-saquah when it had with a large Labor Day celebration.

When that event petered out, the cham-ber organized a celebration of the salmon’s return to the town’s hatchery, she said.

Th en, too, visitors would go to Issaquah creek to view the salmon, she said, as she looked out her offi ce window toward the

Issaquah residents could fi nd them-selves in a congressional district with residents of Wenatchee and Chelan while people in Sammamish could be grouped with those in Whatcom under one proposal to redistrict the state.

A state commission is drawing up new boundaries for what will be 10 congressional districts in the state and new lines for legislative districts. Th e districts are adjusted every 10 years af-ter the most recent census to make sure each member of Congress represents the same number of people.

Th e Wenatchee/Whatcom County proposal– only a draft for now – by commission member and former State Rep. Tom Huff , is far diff erent from those proposed by former Sen. Slade Gorton, Tim Ceis and Dean Foster. New maps for the state’s congressional and legislative districts are due to be completed by Jan. 1, 2012, but mem-bers say that are aiming for a Nov. 1 deadline to give the public time for comments.

Th e other three proposals take a diff erent track. Gorton keeps Issaquah and Sammamish remain pretty much as they are today in a district that includes northeast King County and north Pierce County.

Ceis and Foster would put Issaquah and Sammamish with such cities as Redmond, Kirkland, Edmonds and other cities north of Seattle.

Regarding legislative districts, Gor-ton keeps Issaquah in the Fift h District, but puts Sammamish in the 41 District with Newcastle and Mercer Island.

Ceis puts Issaquah in the 41st District and Sammamish in the 45th District.

Foster puts Issaquah into the 41 Dis-trict with south Bellevue and Mercer Island, and most of Sammamish in the 5th District.

Huff leaves most of Issaquah and Sammamish in the 5th.

Th e committee is taking comments from the public on the draft maps up until its Oct. 11 meeting.

Nat Levy can be reachedat 425-453-4290.

All of the details for this year’s Salmon Days Festival can be found in a pull-out section inside this issue of the Reporter.

The “ofhishal” guide includes a cal-endar of events for Oct. 1-2, details on how to best get there, and a complete list of events for kids.

Desperation, longing and full musical-theater belting rocked the house, as actors performed “Take me America” at Village Th eatre opening night, Sept. 14.

Th e name of the musi-cal was also the the cry for help uttered by seven of the characters in the show, refugees who had come to the U.S. from all over the world, including Algeria, Darfur, China, El Salvador,

Haiti and Palestine.Th ose seven actors

grappled with an added challenge of singing and acting with accents from their character’s respec-tive homelands. Whereas Aaron Finley, Dennis Batemen and a hilarious performance by Leslie Law, played the U.S. offi cials who determined whether they would stay or go.

Standout acting included

Ben Gonio, who played a Chinese poet fl eeing perse-cution under Communist China. Gonio’s dramatic performance was gripping as he recounted atrocities he suff ered in prison. On the other hand, performer Diana Huey, who played his wife, sparkled with an impressive vocal range and tenderness in her duets with Gonio.

More immediate than immigration, asylum re-quires people to prove they are fl eeing from harm’s way in their homeland.

In reality, this life-and-death situation happens

everyday in the U.S.“Take Me America”

writer and lyricist Bill Nabel was inspired by the PBS documentary “Well Founded Fear,” where fi lm-makers Michael Camerini and Shari Robertson enter the closed corridors of the Immigration and Natural-ization Services. Th e fi lm reveals a stark, haunting true story where human rights and American ide-als collide with the nearly impossible task of trying to know the truth.

Some refugees seeking asylum lie about their rea-sons for wanting to come to the U.S.

Th at was touched on in Nabel’s show with the char-

acter Jean, a Haitian refugee played by J. Reese. Jean lied about his reasons for seek-ing persecution, because no one will believe that he is actually a gay man.

Th is brings up another success of “Take Me Ameri-ca” – it’s ability to entertain, while still presenting a seri-ous topic. It’s a musical that both excites, and wrenches the heart.

While Jean’s story of be-ing discriminated against for his sexual orientation was somber, the song “Not Gay Enough” was upbeat

and humorous.Finally, the show closed

with projections of Lady Liberty over the simple, yet versatile set (a series of fi le cabinets) as refugees once again cried out the show’s signature phrase.

Hearing these desperate cries, to be taken or rescued by America, was a reminder to audience members of their own freedoms in the U.S. As Nabel had hoped, the show redefi ned conventional notions of the American experience with both poignancy and a powerful delivery.

Take Me American runs now until Nov. 20 at Village Th eatre, 303 Front St. N., Issaquah. For more information, go to www.villagetheatre.org or call the box offi ce at 425-392-2202.

Old ones gotta goSundays when the Hawks are

not doing well I cannot help but fl ip through the channels. Some-times I land on 21. Sammamish’s own Park and Rec show, but they call it the City Council. Th e comic value is high. Don’t they know that they are on TV?

When the lady starts talking like she is the star and then for-gets her point and someone else has to remind her what she was talking about, it makes the Hawks look good.

I understand why most posi-tions have term limits. It is a gracious way to disinvite a person to be a camera hog. Get on with business and let the citizens enjoy their lives. You cannot run every-thing. Please extend term limits to Sammamish. Eight years is more than enough.

Let Curley run the show and it will get over on time.

Tom Short, Sammamish

Richardson has fair, balanced approach

What we need now in Position 2 on the Sammamish City Coun-cil is a councilmember with hon-esty, dignity and commitment. Th at person is Kathy Richardson.

While Kathy brings open, reasoned decision-making to the table, and comes with an honest desire to serve, her opponent has abused that council position for

years and routinely failed to meet her responsibilities.

As a councilmember, Richard-son’s opponent has sat in meetings with her arms crossed in defi ance, has turned around with her back to her council colleagues when she can’t get her way – and once left in the middle of a meeting because she was angry. Another time, she skipped a City Council executive session altogether to attend an election party. As an incumbent, she has shown repeat-edly that she is not an option thinker, oft en clinging emotional-ly to an agenda she can’t persuade others to join.

Now is the time to demand fair and balanced representation of all Sammamish residents. In November, let’s say clearly that we want a councilmember who is free from personal agendas and

committed to the interests of an enlightened and desirable family-friendly community. We can make that statement by electing Kathy Richardson.

Richardson brings strong busi-ness and public service experi-ence. As vice-president of the Planning Commission for two years, she has learned how the city works and how to lead in the pub-lic sector. As a senior director for Cascade Technical Services, she has led annual strategic planning eff orts, managed global initiatives, and headed their Program Man-agement Offi ce. Managing key client relationships for her fi rm, she clearly knows how to work with and for people.

Let’s bring those skills to the Sammamish City Council and move our city forward.

Jack Barry, Sammamish

Since schools have just started we thought we’d give all of our readers in Issaquah and Sammamish a pop quiz.

A: Does Issaquah have more in common with Sammamish or Wenatchee?

B: Does Sammamish have more in common with Issaquah or Whatcom County?

If Issaquah residents answered Sammamish in question A, and Sammamish residents answered Issaquah in question B, they obvi-ously know more than one of the members of the state redistricting commission.

Tom Huff would lump Issaquah in with Wenatchee – and even Chelan – in the same congressional district. He would put Samma-mish in with almost all the towns in Whatcom County into another congressional district.

Huff , and three other commissioners, are charged with drawing up new boundaries for what will be 10 congressional districts in our state. Th e districts are adjusted every 10 years aft er the most recent census to make sure each member of Congress represents the same number of people.

It’s a particularly diffi cult task in our state since most people live west of the Cascades and at some point residents from other areas might have to be added to balance things out. But Wenatchee and Chelan? Whatcom County? And we thought the current Eighth District was bad stretching from northeast King County into Pierce County.

Yes, we know it’s worse in eastern Washington where congres-sional districts also stretch over several counties. But that’s because there are so few people over there, compared to the west side.

Fortunately, we don’t expect Huff ’s solution to be the one that’s fi nally adopted. Th e plans from the three other commissioners (for-mer Sen. Slade Gorton, Tim Ceis and Dean Foster) keep Issaquah and Sammamish together, mostly with neighboring cities and/or suburban areas.

RACHEL’S GOOD LIFE LIVES ON - Th e remarkable story of Rachel Beckwith continues to amaze. Th e 9-year-old Issaquah girl died last July in a pileup on I-90. News of her death brought an outpouring of support from people around the world aft er it was learned that Rachel’s birthday wish raised $300 for a charity to pro-vide water to African villages. More than $1 million has been raised.

Now Rachel has provided even more life. One of her kidneys was donated to a California man who had been waiting for a transplant for fi ve years.

Th e man, Mark (he doesn’t want his last name used, according to a report on the KOMO web page), also has made a donation to charity:water in Rachel’s name.

“I plan to carry her charitable torch for the rest of my life,” Mark said.

Rachel has done so much for a life cut so short.

LETTERSEDITORIAL

Th is the fi rst of three questions posed to two candidates run-ning for the only challenged seat on Issaquah City Council this November.

Q: Do you support the un-derlining philosophies of the Central Issaquah Plan, which will determine what the central area will look like in 30 years?

T.J. FilleyTh e Central Issaquah Plan is

comprehensive plan to a strategic problem, and still a work in progress.

My hope for the Central Issaquah Plan is that it cre-ates clear rules regarding the development of Issaquah, and

that from it those who wish to develop in Issaquah will be able

to plan with certainty, get permits quickly and move forward with their projects with a minimal amount of red tape, expense and bureaucracy.

Joshua SchaerI support the draft plan’s guid-

ing principles, and will make certain that any plan we adopt improves our ability to move around Issaquah; preserves the natural resources that defi ne our community and make it great; and enforces

balanced retail, commercial, and residential growth targets.

Th e key to ensuring the plan’s success is an ongoing commit-ment to economic, environmental and social sustainability. As a councilmember, I have fought to meet these goals by preserving

the character of Issaquah with re-sponsible development, maintain-ing funding for Complete Streets and adding aff ordable housing.

It is important that our access to – and through – the Central Area is effi cient and can be ac-complished using multiple modes of transportation. We need to invest in our infrastructure and enhance connectivity across both sides of the interstate; one example which my eff orts helped move forward is the I-90 under-crossing.

Changing an area with 75 percent surface parking into a vibrant, livable neighborhood will require sound policy decisions to create practical solutions that can be attained within the next 20 years. During another term on the Council, you can depend on me to bring a positive vision for the Central Area one step closer to reality.

creek. “You can’t do that in many places, but you can do that here.”

As the festival marks the salmon’s homecoming, it marks Kelley’s as well.

She knew Issaquah as a small town, and as soon as she could, she left.

At first it was to Bellevue and Seattle, but after marrying a Portland man, they decided to move to San Diego.

Five years into the adven-ture, the sprawling city left them too restless, they wanted community again. They found community in Washington, D.C., and enjoyed some of the best performing arts.

However, a vacation visit home reminded them of some-thing they missed, Kelley said. “There was a familiar feel to (Issaquah), but it had changed and grown.”

While she had reconnected with her family, she didn’t have a community circle. So her sister encouraged her to volunteer at Salmon Days.

She has the free T-shirt she earned that weekend sewn into a quilt.

The move had given Kelley the chance to explore what she wanted to do next, and the festival’s art drew her in.

Once caught up in the high-pressure life of D.C. law offices and courtrooms, slowing down to work with a non-profit was appealing.

After about four years of office work, she was named director.

“The chamber is really blessed in Issaquah, because she is one the finest individuals you will ever meet,” said Pau-line Middlehurst, the festival sponsorship and promotions

manager.Kelley has an intuition with the festival that’s hard to

translate. When she sets the footprint, she can visualize how people will receive it, Middlehurst said.

For Kelley, the festival reconnected her to the commu-nity.

“I had to leave to come back and appreciate it,” she said, her office cluttered with salmon sculptures and memora-bilia from the years.

She breathed deeply, a tear dropping down her cheek.“It’s an amazing city with amazing people, and it’s an

honor to be here.”

Th ree times in the last seven seasons the Eastside Catholic vol-leyball team has fi nished second in the 3A state tournament — tak-ing the runner-up spot in 2003, 2008 and 2010.

A great accomplishment, yes.But to get so close and fall short

is also something that eats away at the Crusaders — a fact new head coach Mike Bryant learned very quickly about his team.

“Th at was one of the fi rst things they mentioned to me when I met them,” he said. “It represented this hunger and desire to do great things.”

Th e 2011 Eastside roster boasts eight seniors, many who not

only participated on last season’s second-place team, but on the 2008 squad.

In order to take that next step, Bryant, who has assisted colle-giately at Seattle University, Idaho and Pittsburgh, is very careful in his approach.

“We’re not talking about end results at all,” he said. “We’re pri-marily talking about process and how to get there.”

It’s a philosophy the team ap-pears to have bought into early in the season.

“Right now we don’t really have an end goal, we just want to better ourselves,” senior Marlena Norwood said.

Leading the group of senior returners is 5-foot-11 outside hitter Kameron Mclain. Th rough

six matches, the Division I college recruit has 71 kills.

Other returning key seniors include Norwood, a defensive specialist, middle blocker Aman-da Mahan, outside hitter Lauren Rehn, defensive specialist Nicole Boswell, setter Emilee Derus, set-

ter Jordan Gates and outside hitter Danielle Leider.

Th ere is also a core of key returning underclassmen, includ-ing junior setter Hannah Christie, who has 146 assists in fi ve match-es. Junior middle blocker Sarah Hill, junior defensive specialist

Kiana Atwater and sophomore Katherine Towslee provide even more range.

“Having so many kids back from a team that achieved a lot of things last year — it’s a great

situation to have that much depth and experience,” Bryant said. “I think that’s going to carry us far.”

Another possible secret to success this season could be the group’s cohesiveness.

“We just really support each other,” Mclain said. “No matter if we win the point or lose the point, we come together as a team.”

Eastside Catholic, which

carries a No. 1 ranking early in the season, is off to a 6-0 start. The team is putting all that aside for now, however.

“We’re not looking right now to win state,” Mahan said. “We’re looking to let’s get our next point, next game and match.”
