Former Seattle Mariner Dave Valle spent 12 years behind home

plate in Major League Base-ball. But some of his fond-est memories of the game come from his � rst home growing up in Bayside, N.Y.

“My dad was really involved,” said Valle. “I was the � � h in the family and we always had teams at the house.”

Playing the game with family and friends at “Chicken Coop Stadium,” which his father built in the backyard to facilitate the game, was how he learned the basic skills for his career. Valle knows how important the game can be for families and communi-ties and said that is why he decided to be a part of the Kirkland National Little Leagues’ (KNLL) annual FanFest on Saturday.

“It brings me back to

when I was 11 years old,” said Valle, who is also part of the Mariners’ current broadcast team. “It makes me jealous. I wish I could turn the clock back and do it again.”

FanFest played host to 47 KNLL, tee-ball and so� ball teams and more than 500 people at Big Finn Hill Park. Valle’s participation came courtesy of Frontier Communications’ program “Get Your League in Gear,” along with the Seattle

Mariners’ broadcast partner 710 ESPN.

“Our charter is about community building,” said KNLL president Ken Mc-Cumber. “We have been doing this as long as I can remember.”

But having Mariner play-ers visit has been a recent thing, with Mariner great Edgar Martinez � lling in last year.

Juanita Friday Market shows eclectic mix of vendors and beautiful surroundingsBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

Frogs, crepes and soap have very few things in common – until now.

� e Juanita Friday Market at Juanita Beach Park opened Friday with 22 vendors selling everything from living aquariums to fresh vegetables. But the big topic of discussion for market goers and vendors was what side of the street the market was set up on.

“I think it is going to be a lot better than last year as long as they do a little more marketing,” said Tal Chang, who runs the Living Aquariums busi-ness.

Council recommends zoning change for Potala Village landBY MATT PHELPS

[email protected]

Kirkland City Council members were deeply divided Tuesday evening. In a 4-3 vote, the council recommended to the Planning Commission that a hotly contested Business Neighborhood (BN) zoned property on Lake Street South be changed from a Resi-dential Market designation to Neighborhood Center.

� e move is just a recommenda-tion and does not mean that the property, which is slated for the controversial Potala Village develop-ment, will necessarily be changed to neighborhood center - but it is a move in that direction.

� e commission asked for a recommendation from council as they review the city’s Com-prehensive Plan and the BN-zoned properties in the city. � e other BN-

zoned property is already designated as a Neighbor-hood Center.

� e di� erence between the two designations is an up-zoning for the commercial use of the property. � e Neighbor-hood Center designation would allow for com-mercial use of the space to be more broad, including something like a grocery

store. A residential market designa-

tion would limit the commer-cial use of the space to a smaller retail

store such as a drug store.

Neither designa-tion deals with the density of the residential part of the mixed-use project.

Many in the audi-ence, who have fought the Potala develop-ment’s high density, were not pleased with the decision as a larger commercial use could ultimately bring more tra� c to the area.

Reporter should be o� cial newspaper of record

As Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill, said, “All politics is local.” So why is the Seattle Times the only newspaper in which the City of Kirkland places noti� cations for public hearings? Historically it has served as the city’s o� cial newspaper. Well, we’re not Seattle, and we need an update. I think it’s high time that the Kirkland Reporter be included as an o� cial newspaper of record, to broaden the city’s reach in inform-ing the community about important public hearings, such as the upcoming EIS hearing and the one to be held by the Planning Commission with regard to the 143-apartment Potala Village project proposed to be built on the corner of Lake Street South/10th Avenue South

Residents have named the Kirkland Reporter their No. 1 source for news about local government, according to the “2012 Community Survey,” a biannual citizen survey commis-sioned by the City of Kirkland, which

was conducted by Elway Research this year. � e report states: “� e Kirk-land Reporter is the top source (31 percent mention) for news about city government.” As long as we’re paying for the survey, I think it would be prudent for the city to take advantage of the results and include the Reporter in its noti� cation process. I’m sure city o� cials would want to inform as many interested residents as possible about their right and opportunity to participate in local government. Con-sequences of decisions made by city council members have a major impact on the quality of life for all who live in and love Kirkland. � e more people know about what’s going on, the more they will want to participate with their neighbors and have a hand in guiding the future of their city. To that end, I hope that the City of Kirkland will include Kirkland’s No. 1 newspaper as an o� cial newspaper of record.Robin Herberger, Kirkland

King County Council members balk at ICE detainer program

It’s a felony if someone who � les a

tax return uses a false Social Security number for employment. � at person becomes a criminal. If it’s someone other than an illegal or legal alien, they are normally prosecuted. Not so with aliens.

Citizenship should be determined.Fingerprint records need to be sent

to the FBI to be checked against a national immigration database. � e program has been adopted by 2,792 jurisdictions in 49 states.

Checking against the data base takes time. It’s the reason why Im-migration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) place a 48-hour detainer.

Now, we have three King County Council members - Gossett, Phillips, and Patterson _ who are “balking” at the ICE detainer program. Are these Council members willing to abet felons and give up millions of tax dollars currently being held by SS in a holding fund established on question-able returns? Are our three Council members humane concerns for us or for illegal aliens who become felons if they use a false SS number? It is not a minor o� ense. � e 48-hour detain-ment helps to insure the safety for our citizens and instead of abetting

criminal activity, it helps prevent it. It should not be balked at by elected o� cials who should uphold the law. Robert L. Style, Kirkland

Juanita Safeway’s restrooms stink

I have to say I’m so disappointed and frustrated with my local Juanita Safeway and their bathroom upkeep. It seems the bathrooms are con-stantly either � lthy or out of service. I moved to Kirkland a little over a year ago from Ballard and Safeway there seemed challenged by bathroom maintenance as well.

I understand high volume low margin sales, that the e� ect the homeless population puts on public restrooms can be great but Safeway is a multi-billion dollar company and why they can’t put a courtesy clerk in charge of hourly bathroom checks is beyond me.

I’ve walked out of the one working restroom before and seen a woman waiting to come in and have been truly embarrassed and thought to myself if that were my mother/wife/daugh-

Those of you reading this newspaper today obviously get your local news from the Kirkland Reporter.

As the city’s only print newspaper, we provide local news coverage to the widest cross-section of our community – roughly 26,000 households.

Yet, the City of Kirkland designated the Seattle Times as the city’s o� cial newspaper of record in 2007. Before that, it was the daily King County Journal that is no longer in service.

By law, the city must make its residents aware of legal notices, such as public hearings, ordinance summaries, request for proposals, requests for quali� cations and bids and land use/building notices. This must be done through a print publication.

What does this mean for you?You must subscribe to the Seattle Times if you wish to keep

abreast of these city happenings. There is certainly a � nancial burden involved with paying for a newspaper, as opposed to getting one – like the Reporter – delivered free on your doorstep.

But beyond � nances, the city should designate the Reporter as its o� cial newspaper of record because of who we serve. Yes, the Times is the largest daily newspaper in the Seattle-Metro area. But who in Port Orchard or Duvall cares about a public hearing in Kirkland? The Reporter o� ers hyper-local news to a targeted audience – those who truly care about Kirkland City government live and work in Kirkland.

The city justi� es its decision to use the Seattle Times because smaller newspapers, such as the Reporter, “do not have the cir-culation and/or do not publish frequently enough to adequately meet the city’s needs,” according to city records.

But publishing notices is not so immediate that it would require a daily newspaper. According to the city’s Ordinance No. 4082, which designates the Times as the city’s o� cial newspa-per, all notices should be published “not less than � ve days prior to the hearing.” We could accommodate that.

The City Clerk’s O� ce has also indicated that it does send all notices to the Reporter, but the city cannot control what we do with the information. However, the city can control what is printed by guaranteeing a spot in print via advertising.

Sure, the Reporter would have some advertising dollars to gain if the city designates this paper as its o� cial newspaper. But this is not about money – it’s about providing a service to the city and our readers. It’s about being the newspaper of record in the city we represent.

And Kirkland residents have named the Reporter as their No. 1 source for news about local government, according to a 2012

city community survey, conducted by Elway Research.In the letter below, Kirkland resident Robin Herberger

summed it up best: “As long as we’re paying for the survey, I think it would be prudent for the city to take advantage of the results and include the Reporter in its noti� cation process.”

Herberger continues: “Consequences of decisions made by city council members have a major impact on the quality of life for all who live in and love Kirkland. The more people know about what’s going on, the more they will want to participate with their neighbors and have a hand in guiding the future of their city.”

We agree. Publishing public notices in the Reporter would empower the community to get involved. As a direct conduit to Kirkland residents, publishing notices in the Reporter would preserve public access to the legislative process and provide a service without which fewer would know what their elected leaders are up to.

[ LETTERS from page 4]

Dear Mrs. Brooke,I’ve never had the chance

to volunteer in my child’s classroom until now. What should I expect as a class-room volunteer and how can I be most valuable to the teacher?Parent of a third grader

Dear Parent,I appreciate your willing-

ness to be a volunteer in the classroom. I realize that all parents’ time is indeed very impor-tant, so I want you to know every min-ute is very much appreciated by your classroom teacher. I also love that you want to know how to be a “valu-able” volunteer. Classroom teachers want this volunteer experience to be the best for you and the students in the classroom. Here are some ex-pectations that will hopefully give you a better idea of what to expect and also enable you to be a valuable part of your child’s classroom:

1. Although it is exciting to be in your child’s classroom, realize that you will not be working solely with your child. Many times you may not even get to work with your child that day. You are there to work with the class and give your full attention to those kids who you are assigned to help. � ere are many times you may just be wandering the room helping students who need help, working in small groups, or even working one and one and your child may not be involved in the activity. Please explain this to your child as well. Remind them you are here to work with the class!

2. Remember that your own child’s behavior may not

be “typical” when you are present. Frequently, children act out or are very emotional when their parent is pres-ent. � is may just be out of excitement and joy that you are there, but sometimes it takes a di� erent form. Try to reinforce the class rules by directing your child to show appropriate behaviors.

3. Remember to follow all school rules and safety

procedures. For instance, schools do require that all vol-unteers and visitors to the school sign in and out at the o� ce and wear a name badge for identi� ca-tion.

4. Con� dentiality is something all educators must display as a professional in this � eld. Teachers expect volunteers who work in the classroom to be “profes-sionals” too. Never discuss academic progress of other students or issues involving other students outside the classroom.

5. Be � exible. O� en times an assembly is scheduled last minute, or � re drill, etc. � e teacher will try to forewarn you, but in some cases may not get a chance. Also, remember that you may not always be doing the same activity. Some days you might help prepare materials while other days you may be at a math station or reading with a child.

6. Try to make as little distraction as possible when entering the room. You are entering a learning environ-ment and you want to add to student learning, not take away. Many teachers have a certain area or bin full of copying and other tasks designated for volunteers to do if they come in the middle

of a lesson, which you can o� en get right to work on. Be sure to ask your classroom teacher about this and if not try to just blend in and see where you can help out.

7. Make sure if you are unable to make it on your day to email or send a note with your child prior to that day if possible. If the teacher is counting on you and you don’t show that may cause some inconvenience for all.

8. Be positive and respect-ful. Teachers usually always welcome another smiling face that enters the class-room. Although we may seem engrossed in what we are doing o� en we notice the little words of encourage-ment given to the students and the respectful interaction volunteers show that help to add to that culture of respect and joy of learning in the classroom we work so hard to create and for that we are so grateful.

As a teacher I don’t know what I would have done many times without my invaluable volunteers. � e other students in the class-room bene� t so much from dedicated individuals and so does your own child. As your child’s � rst and most impor-tant teacher, by volunteering in your child’s classroom you gain new insights in to your child’s learning and also show your child that you want to be a part of their world.

Contact Mrs. Brooke at [email protected] with questions regarding your child’s learning. Joy Brooke lives in Kirkland with family and teaches AM kindergarten at Ben Franklin Elementary. Her opinions do not re� ect that of the LWSD.

What should I expect as a classroom volunteer?

ter I would prefer her to use a public rest area or gas station restroom. I have written their corporate o� ce before but with no response, just that my message was being sent to the store manager. I spoke to an employee who said that the syringe/hazardous material dis-posal units were being � lled by people and the management decided to close the restrooms.

� is just seems ridiculous to me. Fred Meyer doesn’t have a problem with bathroom upkeep, possibly it’s because they have larger restrooms that I believe their employees use as well and have regular checks. Safe-way spends a ton of money on surveillance cameras I think they should move the syringe disposal unit outside the restrooms and put a camera on it if it’s such an issue. I just know that I’ve been a Safeway customer for more than 25 years and between groceries, gas and prescriptions we probably spend close to $2,000 a month at that store and because of my principals I’m going to be forced to no longer shop there and that upsets me. I don’t

enjoy shopping at QFC, Albertson’s or Fred Meyer – I think I’m going to start though, if they get their liquor permit. Albertson’s does have great spirits bottled under their name and they also carry Lesueur english peas. So long Safeway, I’ve enjoyed our time together but all good things must end.Chris McDaniel, Kirkland

Thank you for recycling, supporting Hopelink

Sandburg-DCS Elementary’s Green Team hosted a recycling event on May 6. 1 Green Planet came and collected about 12,000 pounds of electronics, computers, appliances, grills, mowers, bikes, etc. It was amazing! While the recycling was a free service, the Green Team collected donations for Hopelink’s End Summer Hunger Program, to help feed kids during the summer months when they don’t get free or reduced lunch from school. We collected $760! � ank you!Susan Vossler, Kirkland

Councilmembers Bob Sterno� , Toby Nixon and Dave Asher voted against the change, while Mayor Joan McBride, Deputy Mayor Do-reen Marchione, Penny Sweet and Amy Walen voted for it. Some on the council voiced displeasure with the decision as well.

“What has been expressed earlier in the generalization is where we want to ultimately go and get more businesses into neighborhoods that now require driving to go any-where to get anything,” said Asher. “And in doing that you don’t want to, to put it inelo-quently, screw the neighbor-hood, like I am concerned we are doing here tonight.”

His comments led to out-bursts from angry residents in the audience dressed in

their trademark red shirts.“� e comp plan envi-

sioned an island of commerce and mixed-use without dramatically greater density,” said Walen. “I don’t think that anyone envisioned unlimited density in that particular area … What I think we need to do is allow signi� cantly more density than 24 units per acre but we do need a density cap. I am interested in a compro-mise.”

� e council ultimately came to compromise on many issues.

� e issue with the project’s density has a direct impact on tra� c on Lake Washington Boulevard, which can be one of the most congested streets in the city. Sweet said that she understands the tra� c concerns of the residents but “a person went out and

purchased that property under an understanding of what they can do with this property. � at implies a con-tract to me to a certain degree that I believe we have to pay attention to.”

Sterno� agreed with Sweet but pointed out the same argument could be made for those who already live in the area.

“Zoning is to give some kind of certainty and that is not just for the developer. Truth be told, I am a devel-oper,” said Sterno� . “… � e certainty is for the people that already live there.”

Many residents have com-plained about not being able to get out of their driveways because of the tra� c volume on the street. � e issue of bus access to the area, in order to help mitigate tra� c conges-

tion for residents, was also discussed.

“� e big bus doesn’t go on Lake Washington Blvd., okay, big problem,” said Sterno� . “Buses go to centers. Buses go to where people are. Just because you put people somewhere doesn’t necessar-ily mean you’re going to have a bus there.”

But personal opinions fu-eled a lengthy discussion.

“I do believe that there needs to be more density there than folks are asking for,” said Sweet. “… I have read every single email about the tra� c. I am in that tra� c all the time as well … I don’t believe that 100 more units or something in that number is going to break anything.”

� ose emails and citizen activism changed the mayor’s mind - to a point - stating

that she could have sup-ported the original 163 unit proposal but has scaled back her opinion of the size of the development.

� e maximum three residents spoke on the issue during the public comment portion of the meeting.

“Kirkland is a community with a small-town feel, not a big inner city feel with high rises,” Kirkland resident Tom Grim told the council.

Council members agreed that they want to encourage businesses and not o� ce space in the structure and did so through a recommenda-tion on bu� ers for each. � e council recommended that the commercial space be limited to 4,000 square feet.

Despite the recommenda-tion to change the com-mercial designation, the

council did agree on most other recommendations for the property, most of which impact the residential density of the project. One of the big-gest was that there should be a residential-density limit for the land, something that had not been imposed. But that exact limit was not recom-mended during the meeting.

Nixon said that he believed the density should match or be close to the surrounding buildings, a statement that all the council members agreed with.

But Sterno� pointed out that the council’s recommen-dation of a 13-foot height limit for the commercial space on the bottom � oor, along with current height restrictions for the building, will limit the size of the build-ing and its density.

the west side of the parking lot with space for growth.

� e Friday Market showcases many unique businesses, including the Living Aquariums, which are designed to be their own ecosystem for a pet frog. � e self-contained environ-ment, which is about the size of a large thermos and up to a small lunch box, has a snail to clean the algae o�

the sides, plants to gener-ate oxygen for the frogs and gravel to clean the water. � e aquarium also comes with a year supply of food.

“Kids like them and some people buy them as a desktop pet,” said Chang, who will also be at the Kirkland Wednesday Market at Ma-rina Park this summer.

Haas, who has done the Friday Market for years, said that while small, the market has given her some of her most loyal customers.

“We had a good crowd last

year,” said Haas, who does multiple markets each year. “If we can get more booths it will help.”

� e Trimmed Wick sells handmade soy-based candles and soaps and has been in business for 10 years. � e homemade products have been so successful that “cut your own slice” vendors have been available at � ri� way stores. � e Trimmed Wick can also be found online at www.trimmedwick.com

“My son was born with eczema and started making

our own soaps,” said Haas, who is from Woodinville. “� e markets really help our product because we depend on word-of-mouth.”

Many of the businesses at the market depend on word-of-mouth to adver-tise and the market gives them a place to display their goods without the cost of a storefront. Some just sell delicious goods for the day at the beach like the Oak Hills Farms Hawaiian Shave Ice, which celebrates its 60th an-niversary this year.

Eight � re engines re-sponded to a large � re in the attic of a house in the Juanita neighborhood on Monday morning.

Fire o� cials said they received the call at 10:45 a.m. in the 9700 block of N.E. 142nd Court near the Bothell city limits in Kirk-land. Fire� ghters from Kirkland, Redmond, North-shore, Woodinville and Bothell, along with the Kirkland Police Department responded to the � re that sent a plume of smoke into the sky that could be seen from miles away.

“� ere were some good � ames before the water got going,” said neighbor Shawn Barrow, who lives in the neighborhood and was standing outside watch-ing � re� ghters put out the � ames.

Kirkland Fire Battalion

Chief Mike Haschak said that no one in the house was injured in the � re.

“We have some more in-vestigating to do but so far there is no one hurt (from KFD),” Haschak. “Upon our arrival there was heavy smoke and � re.”

Haschak said that � re was coming out of vents in

the roof from the attic.“Fires get up in

attics and they are tinder dry,” said Haschak. “� e roof

was sagging and we could not risk any � re-

� ghters up here to cut holes in it. Now we have to chase down every little hot spot.”

� e house sits in a cul de sac at the bottom of a dead-end hill.

“It took them a good 10 minutes to get water on it,” said Barrow. “I saw two guys come out of the house.”

� e � rst � re� ghters had to lay a dry line from a hy-drant at the top of the hill to the bottom, past eight

houses and then use the 500 gallons in their truck to start putting water on the blaze. � e next � re crew to respond used the dry line from the hydrant.

Joey Buong, whose family just moved into the house next door to the one on � re was not able to return home a� er learning of the � re.

“My brother saw the smoke and called me at school,” said Buong. “It is kind of weird that this hap-pens in the � rst month that we are here.”

� e � re was contained to the one house and did not spread to neighboring property.

Buong said that his neighbor’s house was an ac-tive place with a family.

“� ey have a lot of people there all the time,” said Buong. “I think they have a band or something.”

Fire� ghters moved three drum kits out of the house to the sidewalk.

“It did turn out there was a minor injury – noth-

ing serious,” said Washing-ton State Patrol Trooper Julie Startup, noting all right lanes were blocked for approximately 25 min-utes following the crash that happened around 6:30 a.m. � e lane blockage caused a signi� cant tra� c

back-up.� e WSP investigated

the crash, which happened near Northeast 116th Street. Startup said the cause of the crash is un-known, though it appeared that speed was a major factor.

Police are searching for a man who robbed

the Juanita neighbor-hood Subway on Tuesday morning, according to Kirkland police.

A man walked into the

Subway on 100th Ave. N.E. at approximately 8:30 a.m.

“The suspect had a gun visible in his waistband,” said Kirkland Police De-partment spokesman Sgt. Rob Saloum.

The man was wearing a long black sleeve shirt, dark brown pants and a scarf over his face. The man got away on foot headed northbound.

Police are still investi-gating the incident.

“It is an odd time for a robbery because it was just after they opened,” said Saloum. “I would imagine he got some-thing.”

A juvenile turned himself over to Kirkland police and was booked for trespassing a� er a manhunt through the Houghton neighbor-hood on May 11.

According to initial wit-ness reports, a Houghton

homeowner confronted the youth, who appeared to be bleeding from the knees, in his back-yard. � e juvenile took o� running, according to a NORCOM dispatch spokesperson.

“It turned out to be a juvenile going through

a couple of backyards here,” said Kirkland Lt.

Mike Murray, noting a K-9 unit helped to track the juvenile. “While searching, we had the area surrounded, and

he wound up coming out from an area behind

some houses and he turned himself in.”

Murray added that the youth had some slight in-juries on his shoulder, back and stomach that appeared “like he was climbing over fences in backyards.” How-ever, he was not bleeding, said Murray.

He said police have not received any reports of break-ins in the area, but the youth does face tres-passing charges.

Eastside Community Aid Thrift Store wins national recognition

Assistance League of the Eastside is an all-volunteer non-pro� t organization that puts caring and commitment into action through com-munity-based philanthropic programs to make a positive di� erence in the lives of children and adults touched by hardship or violence.

Operation School Bell is a national program of Assis-tance League; all 126 chapters across the U.S. participate in this program. At the heart of

the program is the belief that new clothing, and the result-ing increase in self-esteem and school attendance, contributes to a strong foun-dation for a child’s successful

school experience. � e local chapter’s program began in 1992 by serving 60 students in one school and has ex-panded this year to serve over 2700 students in 47 schools

in the Lake Washington, Bel-levue and Northshore school districts.

� e National Operation School Bell Award is given to honor those in the commu-nity, who through signi� cant � nancial, in-kind or service support, have had a direct, powerful and positive e� ect

on Operation School Bell, thus warranting recognition from National Assistance League. At its recent fund raiser, Assistance League of the Eastside honored one of its long-time local donors who has consistently support-ed the Operation School Bell program. Operation School

Bell Committee chairman Mavis Goetsch presented the National Operation School Bell Award to Eastside Community Aid � ri� Shop President, Jody Orbits. Since 1993, Eastside Community Aid � ri� Shop has donated over $83,000 to the chapter in 29 separate gi� s.

Curves of Kirkland gives back

Over the past few month

since Margaret and Daniel Broggel became the new owners of Curves of Kirk-land, and hired new manage-ment, there have been many great things happening for

our community. Curves of Kirkland raised

more than 1,700 pounds of food from the efforts of their staff and members to benefit Hopelink Food Bank. Now

as they celebrate National Women’s Health Week and National Curves Day, they will be giving away 30-day free memberships to the community through May 19 at Curves of Kirkland, 10627 N.E. 68th St., Kirkland.

“While we work to improve the lives of the women in the Kirkland area through Curves, we also feel it is important to reach out to others in our community,” said Maggi Broggel, owner of Curves of Kirkland. “It’s apparent to us that Hopelink cares about the lives and the health of the people in our

community. We are proud to be able to partner with them to help the Kirkland area.”

According to Broggel, one of Curves of Kirkland’s goals is to foster community in-volvement through charitable efforts and networking with other local companies in the overall health of our com-munity and in reducing the risk of heart disease, diabetes and obesity.

“Curves has always been dedicated to improving someone’s life - through weight loss or a charitable ini-tiative. It’s exciting to be able to give both to the Kirkland

community,” said Broggel. Curves’ exercise program

consists of 30 minutes of exercise three times a week, during which participants work all major muscle groups and receive a great cardio workout. It includes all five components of a complete exercise program: warm-up, strength training, cardio, cool down, and stretching.

In addition to a proven workout plan, Curves of Kirkland offers various programs for adolescent to senior women, with their individual or mother/daughter programs to help motivate and assist women in obtaining a healthy lifestyle, including: CurvesSmart™ personal coaching system, a new technology pioneered by Curves that offers a precision designed workout, moment to moment feedback and progress reports to keep members motivated while they work out; and www.CurvesComplete.com, an on-line weight-loss subscription service that provides sub-scribers with diet and fitness information, tools, experts and motivation to achieve their weight-loss goals.

You have heard the words adrenal fatigue and stress. What do they mean and what do they mean for your health and well being?

If you have di� -culty getting up in the morning, wake feeling unrefreshed by sleep, or are craving salt, you may be experienc-ing adrenal fatigue. Additional symptoms of ad-renal fatigue include: lethargy, increased e� ort to accom-plish daily tasks, decreased sex drive, decreased ability to handle stress, light-headed-ness when standing quickly, increased recovery time from illness, mild depression, less enjoyment of happiness with life, increased PMS, increased ca� eine usage, thoughts that are less focused, memory is less accurate, decreased tolerance to other people, and decreased productivity.

If you don’t feel awake until about 10 a.m., feel very low around 3-4 p.m., and then feel better a� er the evening meal than you may be experi-encing adrenal fatigue.

What causes adrenal fatigue? � e most common things are lack of sleep, poor food choices, staying up late even though fatigued, using food and drinks as stimu-lants when tired, trying to be perfect, lack of enjoyable and rejuvenating activities. � e biggest and most important cause is stress.

Stress is part of daily life

in our current society. Stress can come from a major event such as a death, divorce, or automobile accident. � ere

are other forms of stress that can cumu-latively add up, such as a bout with the � u, an unhappy relation-ship, pressure at work and poor diet. Our adrenal glands help our bodies deal with

major stress. If we are in a life-threatening situation our bodies produce adrenaline so that we can � ght for our lives or � ee. However, with the constant stress of running around, eating on the go, and trying to ful� ll demands life puts on us, our bodies get stuck in � ight or � ight mode. � is is where the troubles start.

When in � ght or � ight mode our bodies pump out epinephrine, also known as adrenaline. Adrenaline causes a physiological response in many systems. � e responses most relevant to our day-to-day health include our immune system and gastro-intestinal system shut down. � is causes gastrointestinal conditions, malnutrition, and frequent illnesses. When our adrenal glands are no longer able to respond to stress we are then in some stage of adrenal fatigue. � ere are adrenal stress tests available, as well as other physical tests your doctor can do. Consult your naturopathic doctor for the right assessment and treatment options.

special guest to start the events. Valle threw out the first pitch to a KNLL catcher, who in a twist on conventional events, signed the baseball for Valle. The former major league catcher spent nearly two hours signing autographs for the players and their families.

The KNLL honored the girls majors softball team, which placed third in the Western Region last sea-son, along with a KNLL team that won the City Championship last year.

McCumber also honored KNLL volunteer Keith Wilson in front of the 47 teams and player families in attendance.

Following the cer-emony, the 13 softball teams and 34 baseball and tee-ball teams took to the fields for skills competi-tions such as relay races, throwing contests and other events. Winning teams were given buckets of goodies.

“This is all just about having a good time and enjoying the game,” said McCumber.

KNLL was also one of six little league orga-nizations in the state to receive a $1,000 gift certificate to Kimmel Athletic in Redmond as a part of a drawing at last year’s FanFest.

For Valle, FanFest is the third such event he par-ticipated in this season.

“This is the age when you fall in love with base-ball and it is just fun to be a part of that,” said Valle, who has been involved in the game professionally for 34 years. “It is a part of the fabric of America.”

The Juanita so� ball team won the KingCo tournament title

Friday by beating cross-town rival Lake Washington 9-1.

But the big performance came in the pitching circle, as Juanita starting pitcher Alli-

son Rhodes threw a complete game no-hitter. � e only run scored by Lake Washington was unearned during the top of the sixth, as each team committed three errors dur-ing the game.

Rhodes � nished the KingCo title game with 11 strikeouts and just one walk.

� e Rebels hammered the

ball on o� ense with a one-run second, � ve-run third and three-run fourth.

Lake Washington quali� ed for the title game with a big win against Mount Si earlier in the day. � e Kangs scored two � rst-inning runs and added two more during the � � h to take a 4-0 lead. � e Wildcats would only show of-

fensive life during their � nal at-bats of the game, scoring two late runs during the bot-tom of the seventh.

Lake Washington will have the No. 2 seed from KingCo into the district tournament, earning them a � rst-round bye. Both teams played at Lower Woodland Park on Wednesday (a� er Reporter

deadline) in the second round of districts.

Lake Washington defeated Bellevue 3-1 on � ursday to advance in the tournament.

� e Kangs were led by Audrey Sundene, who threw a complete game � ve-hitter, giving up one unearned run, striking out one and walking one. Lake Washington gave

up its unearned run during the � rst inning but it didn’t faze Sundene. � e Kangs scored two runs for Sundene during the bottom of the fourth to take a slim lead and gave her a cushion with an additional run during the sixth. Kayla Hill was 1-for-2 at the plate with an RBI for Lake Washington.

� e Lake Washington baseball team battled its way to the KingCo title game last week, but came up just short of the cham-pionship, losing to Mount Si 3-2 on Friday. But it was the loss to Liberty on Sat-urday in a loser-out game to compete at state that stunned the team. Both games took place at Ban-nerwood Park in Bellevue.

Against Mount Si, the Kangs fell behind early

giving up an early run dur-ing the bottom of the sec-ond. But Lake Washington came right back during the next half inning, scoring a run to tie the game. Mount Si countered with a run during the bottom of the third for the 2-1 lead. � e Kangs temporarily tied the game during the � � h, but Mount Si scored the winning run during the bottom of the sixth.

Despite the loss, Kang starting pitcher Nick Johnson threw another good game. Johnson went

the distance, only allowing three runs on eight hits.

Victor May-orquin and Alec Wong both collected an RBI during the game.

Against Lib-erty, the Kangs needed a win to advance to state but a four-run � rst inning for the Patriots put Lake Washington down early. Despite the de� cit, the Kangs chipped away at the lead with a run during the bottom of the

� rst, two in the second and two in the third. � e game

was tied at 5-5 heading into the fourth inning.

A two-run sixth gave the Patriots the 7-5 lead and Lake Washington could only man-age one more

run before the game and their season came to a close. Steve Semler had two RBI during the game, teammates Zach Johnson and Jordan LaFave also

had an RBI each.� e team advanced to

the championship game of the KingCo tourna-ment � ursday with a 6-3 victory against Bellevue at Bannerwood Park in Bellevue.

� e Kangs jumped out to a 4-0 lead a� er three innings of play, as start-ing pitcher Zach Johnson sti� ed the Wolverines.

Lake Washington added to that lead, pushing their advantage to 6-0 during the bottom of the sixth.

Bellevue showed life

during the top of the seventh, scoring two unearned runs and one earned run to cut the lead in half but Johnson � nished o� the Wolverines for the win. � e starting pitcher threw a complete game six-hitter, striking out just one and walking � ve.

� e o� ense was led by Steve Semler, who went 2-for-2 with three RBI and a double. Jeremy Parkhurst scored three of the Kang runs.

� e Kangs � nished the season with a 16-7 record and second in the KingCo regular-season standings.

Kirkland high school girls athletes took nine first-place

finishes out of the 16 events during the 3A KingCo championship meet held last week at Juanita High School, while the Kang and Rebel boys scored three individual first-place finishes.

As a team, the Juanita girls finished second with 151.33 points behind Liberty with 154 points.

“We had an amazing meet for both squads,” said Juanita head coach Neil Kells. “We desperately wanted to win it this year, but Liberty had to have twice as many girls as us to win. Our 14 almost beat their 28.”

The boys also took second place overall with 117 points, behind KingCo champions Bellevue with 185 points.

The Lake Washington boys (54) and girls (68) both finished sixth.

Juanita senior Alanna Coker finished the meet with first-place finishes in three separate events. Coker won the 100-meters in 12.08 seconds and the 200-meters in 25.87 seconds. In the field events, Coker took first in the triple jump with a new KingCo record with 40-feet, 3-inches. She was declared the winner of the long jump with 17-feet, 1-inch on the first day of the meet but the

results were misinterpreted by a judge. Coker finished second in the event.

Juanita senior Kate Cry-derman won the discus with a career-best distance of 122-feet, 2-inches. Cryderman also won the shot put with a distance of 38-feet, 4-inches.

“Kate Cryderman and Alanna did an amazing job for us in individual events,” said Kells.

Juanita’s Molly Grager won the high jump with 5-feet, 6-inches.

The Juanita girls won two of the three relay events. Reb-els Kathryn Wuchter, Kaila Bass, Regi Lammers and Mikayla Jones teamed up to

win the 400-meter relay with a time of 50.33 seconds and the 800-meters with a time of 1:48.02.

“The team ... ran both races and got the baton around the track to Mikki Jones who came from behind in both races to win,” said Kells.

Sara Wilson won the only event for Lake Washington, taking first in the 300-meter hurdles in 47.43 seconds.

Rebels girls took three of the top five places in the 200-meters and the triple jump.

“We are going to take the momentum we have started at the Kingco meet and take it to the Sea-King meet against

Metro,” said Kells. “Our kids are hungry and are out to prove themselves.”

Juanita senior Alex Wallin won the 110-meter hurdles in a time of 15.25 seconds and the 300-meter hurdles (40.39).

Lake Washington junior Kenyon Butler won the 400-meters with a time of 49.76 seconds.

Juanita’s depth was on display in the triple jump as Rebel boys took second through fifth place and athletes from Kirkland took seven of the top ten places. Juanita boys took three of the top five spots in the 300-me-ter hurdles.

Kirkland golfers advance to state

Lake Washington High School’s Anna Jessen and Juanita High School’s Kyla Terashima both qualified for state Monday during the Sea-King 3A District Championship at Riverbend Golf Course. Jessen finished

the day with 86 strokes on the par 72, good enough to tie for sixth place overall. Terashima finished tied for 13th place with 90 strokes. The Rebels scored 11 team points to finished seventh.

Juanita baseball season comes to an end

The Juanita High School baseball season came to an end Tuesday with a loss to Bellevue, 3-2, during the

first round of the KingCo tournament.

The Wolverines struck first with two runs during the second inning at Ban-nerwood Park in Bellevue. But the Rebels came right back scoring two of their own during the third. But a big fourth inning run for Bellevue would be the decid-ing factor.

Juanita soccer season ends

The Juanita boys soccer

team’s season came to an end Wednesday at Mount Si High School, as Samma-mish took the second round KingCo playoff game 2-1.

It looked like the Rebels had just as much fire power brewing for this game as they did in upsetting King-Co No. 2 seed Mount Si on Monday. Juanita scored dur-ing the 17th minute to take a 1-0 lead as Genki Marshall sent a pass to teammate Jon Ellis for an early goal. But that was all the team could score against the Totems.

Dorothy C. Hansen, a long time resident of Kirkland, Washington, died

April 25, 2012, in Claremont, California where she moved in 2007

to be closer to her family. Born Dorothy Rose Carlisle

on March 1, 1914, in Kettle Falls, Washington, to Fred Green Carlisle and Ellen Agnes Carlisle, Dorothy grew up on her family’s apple farm along the Columbia River where she worked long days with her family throughout childhood. During the Depression the government purchased the farm, condemned to be flooded by the Grand Coulee Dam.

Dorothy was the salutatorian of her graduating class at Kettle Falls High School. In 1935, she married Ralph L. Hansen, a neighbor and friend she had known since birth. Their first child, Ralph Alan, was born in 1936. In the first years of their marriage she worked at various jobs to help support the family and to enable Ralph to return to college to prepare to be a teacher. Upon his graduation in 1940 from the University of Washington, they moved to Ryderwood, Washington where Ralph began teaching at Ryderwood High School and worked for the timber company. Their second child, Mary Ann, was born in 1942. In 1943, they moved to Clarkston, Washington where Ralph taught at Clarkston High School and worked in the Potlatch Lumber Mill in Lewiston, Idaho. Their third child, Dorothy Jean (Jeannie), was born in 1944. In 1947, the family moved to Kirkland, Washington where Ralph taught science and math at Kirkland High School (later named Lake

Washington High School) until his retirement in 1969.

Ralph died in 1975.After taking bookkeeping and typing classes, Dorothy

began work in 1950 at the Kirkland Bank, the only bank in Kirkland at the time. She continued to work at the bank under its successive owners and name changes until she retired from the Bank of America in 1979. She was a member of the Eastside Business and Professional Women in which she continued to participate after retirement. She was also, after retirement, an active member of the Bellevue-Yao City Sister City Program, travelling to Japan and hosting Japanese friends in her home. After retirement she also travelled extensively in Asia, Europe and the United States, attending many Elderhostels which she loved.

Dorothy spent a long life in service to others. She was actively involved and devoted to the work of the Rose Hill Presbyterian Church in Kirkland, serving as an elder, Sunday school teacher and in many other roles. She drove people to doctor appoint-ments, ran errands and cooked meals for shut-ins, and sat long hours at the bedside of those who were ill. For more than twenty years, she served weekly as a volunteer at Group Health Hospital in Bellevue.

Dorothy was predeceased by her parents and her siblings, Marguerite Smith, Loren Carlisle, and Marie Moles; by her husband Ralph; and by her son Alan.

She is survived by her sister Betty Abbott of Reno, Nevada; daughters Mary Ann Hansen (husband Rudy Larsen) of Glenn, CA and Jeannie Samuels (husband Don Samuels) of Diamond Bar, CA; grandsons Philip Jolley of Burlingame, CA, Dean Samuels of Diamond Bar, CA, and granddaughter Julie Salaz (husband Jack) of Hesperia, CA; great grandchildren Nicole and Ryan Samuels and Jenna and Joel Salaz; and eight nephews and nieces.

A memorial service will be held at the Rose Hill Presbyterian Church in Kirkland on June 27 at 3pm.

Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast

Since 1947 the Kiwanis Club of Kirkland has raised substantial money each year for a variety of local causes, but given the current state of the economy, few causes seem as critical as helping families who suddenly find themselves without a place to live.

For this reason, Kirkland Kiwanis is conducting their third annual all-you-can-eat Pancake Breakfast, with 100 percent of the net proceeds going to Kirkland Interfaith Transitions in Housing (KITH), an Eastside organi-

zation dedicated to providing transitional housing to needy families. Co-sponsors are KITH, and the neighbor-hood associations of Market, North Rose Hill, Highlands, South Rose Hill/Bridle Trails and Kingsgate (Evergreen).

This community event will run from 7 a.m. to noon on Saturday, May 26, at the Peter Kirk Community Center, located at 352 Kirkland Avenue in downtown Kirk-land. Breakfast will include pancakes, sausage, fruit and beverages. The suggested donation is $7 per person, although nobody will be turned away.

The fund-raiser breakfast will be held in conjunction with the 7 Hills of Kirkland bicycling event taking place

on Memorial Day, May 28. Food will be prepared and served by volunteers from the Kiwanis Club of Kirk-land, as well as Kiwanis Key Club members from Lake Washington High School, International Community School, and Juanita High School.

According to Walt Krueger, past president of Kirkland Kiwanis and co-chair of the Pancake Breakfast fund-raising event, the growth in the number of homeless people on the Eastside over the last three years has stretched KITH’s resources dramatically.

For this reason, the club’s goal in 2012 is to increase its contribution to KITH by

more than 50 percent over what was raised last year.

TechCity Bowl Thumpin’ Thursdays

TechCity Bowl in Kirkland announces Thumpin’ Thurs-

days, their new all-you-can-bowl event every Thursday night from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. weekly beginning May 24.

The event is hosted by their resident DJ Pete Fabian, and several of Seattle’s most talented guest DJ’s. The event boasts all-you-can-bowl sessions.
