After 16 years in busi-ness, the Main Street AleHouse & Eatery in downtown Bothell closed its doors and beer taps on Aug. 29.

However, according to a sign the owners hung on the establishment’s front window and a notice placed on their Facebook page recently, Susan and Gary Southwick were set on incorporating the restaurant/bar into their other business, Preserva-tion Kitchen, which is located on Bothell Way Northeast.

The change took place on Sept. 1.

“One section will con-tinue to operate as fine dining while another will be a casual setting for The AleHouse & Eatery. One building with a variety of choices,” read the Face-book notice.

“We couldn’t negotiate a new lease,” Susan told the Reporter, adding that she and Gary discussed the situation with their

Over the last month, Susan said both restau-rants’ staffs have “blessed” the Southwicks with their support and help through the transition. AleHouse customers have said they’ll follow the road up Bothell Way Northeast to the newly named Main Street AleHouse and Pres-ervation Kitchen, Susan said.

Preservation Kitchen’s back bar and dining room is a little bigger than the AleHouse’s space, and they moved everything from the Main Street loca-tion into the new spot.

“It’s got that old ale-house feel to the building. It looks great,” Susan said. “I think change is good. It’s my belief that it can solidify our presence in Bothell at this location.”

Several months ago, a citizen issued a complaint with the Bothell Police Department about possible prostitution taking place at a massage and spa business located in the

22900 block of State Route 527 in Bothell, according to Capt. Denise Langford, public information o� cer.

On Aug. 22, a� er a lengthy joint criminal investiga-tion with the Bothell Police Department and King County Sheri� ’s O� ce involving

surveillance and undercover operations, members from both organizations served two search warrants at the Ginger Massage and Spa and a nearby associated apartment located in the 1600 block of 228th Street Southeast.

At around noon, Langford

her business as well. She’s serving beer and wine at her cafe, which is located next door to the Ale-House & Eatery.

The business is now open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday, with a 3-6 p.m. happy hour and an addi-tion of appetizers to the menu.

Henderson, who used the AleHouse & Eatery’s closure as a springboard to make changes, wants to draw people down-town during the eve-nings.

“Everybody loves the feel of downtown Main Street,” she said. “I want people to know (Alexa’s) as a destination place. We’re going to compete.”

Alexa’s Cafe’s new hours went into effect on Aug. 27. Henderson said the first night was a success and she “loves sharing that space with our community.”

Along with the Ale-House & Eatery, Three Cups of Tea on 102nd Avenue Northeast, off Main, also recently closed up shop.

“It makes me sad, all the changes,” said Hen-derson, noting that she hopes that existing Main Street businesses can weather the tight econ-omy and changes on the horizon with the city’s revitalization projects.

Three Cups of Tea owner Lea Miller couldn’t be reached at press time.

When I took over the Bothell-Kenmore Reporter editor’s seat 5 ½ years ago, I was thrilled to be back in the area full time af-ter working out of the company’s Bellevue and Kent offices for a few years.

I started my journey here in 1997 as sports editor of the old Northshore Citi-zen, and immedi-ately embraced the Northshore. The sports people were solid. Everyone I met off the fields were top notch, as well, and helped me along the way, showed me around and made me comfortable with the area.

It’s been a long and enjoyable ride.Now, I’ll be taking my reporter’s note-

book, camera and journalism knowledge up the road to Redmond and take over the editor’s spot.

Sound Publishing’s Kirkland ace reporter Matt Phelps will take over my position and will keep things rolling with quality re-portage. Former Bothell-Kenmore Report-er sports guru Tim Watanabe is working his magic to help with the transition, so readers are a lucky bunch with these guys on board.

The last 18 months of my tenure have been a wild ride of reporting on city council news, crime stories, schools hap-penings, sporting events and whatever else came my way. I did this mostly on my own, and I think I’m a better editor and reporter because of that.

Juggling many things at a time is the way of the world and I believe we should all try our hands at a variety of things in order to become stronger, more well-rounded individuals.

Whether it was during recent times or way back in 1997 and onward, I appreciate everyone in the Northshore area who gave me a story idea, allowed me to interview them and tell their story, supplied me with crucial information or pointed me in the right direction for sources in order to write the best stories I possibly could.

You know who you are. And there are many of you, so give yourselves a pat on the back for a job well done.

We were all in it together. Take care.

Support McAuli� e in NovemberI read with interest two recent letters to the

editor related to the candidates running for the District 1 state rep-position. I agree with the writers that Dawn McCravey and Rosemary McAuli� e represent very di� erent choices for this district.

I am proud to be a teacher in the Northshore School District, and grateful for the thoughtful leadership provided by Rosemary McAuli� e on education issues. Some may consider it a prob-lem that she does not support charter schools, but I, and my colleagues, support Rosemary McAuli� e’s stance on this question.

As professionals, teachers welcome an evalua-tion system that is rigorous, fair, substantive and tied to our performance and that of our students. Such a system for both teachers and principals is now in implementation stages. For those who fear that the teacher union protects bad teachers (despite the fact that as a group we do not want to protect our jobs at all costs, nor do we wel-come working alongside non-performing teach-ers), the new evaluation system is an appropriate and supportive response to teachers who need interventions in order to meet standard.

Charter schools are not the “magic bullet” solution to under-performing schools that those outside the � eld would like to believe. � ey are businesses that may or may not be run in a manner that best addresses educational high standards. Studies have shown that in compar-ing charter schools to public schools, a larger percentage of charter schools perform worse rather than better, and most perform around the same. � ey may or may not provide profes-sional development for teachers which is critical to the outcomes for students, may or may not

have good curriculum support or curriculum that is non-biased, do not have economy of scale when it comes to administrative support, and have little oversight. At best, I � nd this kind of solution to low performing public schools a risky and expensive experiment.

A recent conversation with a charter school teacher from Phoenix con� rmed my worst fears. He noted that the teachers in his school were consistently threatened with losing their jobs if they didn’t like directives, were given a 15-per-cent pay cut at the end of the year due to cost overruns, and had no professional development or curriculum guidance. Needless to say, morale was at an all-time low and those who could (in-cluding him), jumped ship. Obviously, students were negatively impacted. No one can perform to optimum standards in a threatening, and non-supportive negative environment.

I’m thankful for Rosemary McAuli� e’s work in supporting teachers, rather than blindly blaming teacher unions. We are the resource that most a� ects your child’s education. A rigorous evaluation system, strong curriculum support, continuing professional development, along with fully funding education, will go a long way toward improving education in our state. � is is the kind of leadership that has been provided by Rosemary McAuli� e. My hope is that voters will not embrace the charter school solution, and those who support them. I believe the future of education in Washington state is at stake.

Jennie Knapp, Kirkland

Referendum 74 approval: honoring loving relationships

Opponents of Referendum 74, the referen-

dum that legalizes same-sex marriage, will soon deluge us with literature, television and radio adds that are fear based, inaccurate, and full of half-truths. � ey will do this in the name of “religious faith.”

It will not matter that Jesus gave us the great commandment to love one another as we have been loved by God. It will not matter that Jesus cautioned all of us not to judge lest we be judged. It will not matter that the referendum clearly states that religious institutions do not have to perform or recognize same-sex marriage. It will not matter that the referendum will in no way penalize those same religious institutions for not performing or recognizing same-sex marriages. Have no doubt: you will not be presented with facts or the truth. � e appeal from the opposi-tion will be to emotional fear.

What does matter is that approving Referen-dum 74 will honor the long-term, committed, loving relationships of couples that happen to be of the same gender. What does matter is that there are many people of faith who assert that love is stronger than fear. What does matter is that there are many of us who are people of faith who believe we are being faithful by approving Referendum 74.

One of the founders of my faith tradition, Francis David, made the statement in 14th century Europe that I believe applies to our time and this issue: “We need not think alike to love alike.”

As a person of faith, recognizing that we do not all think alike, I ask you to join me in loving alike: vote to approve Referendum 74.

are trying to glean as much information as they can,” said Langford, who added that the Bothell Police Department called upon the King County Sheriff ’s Office to help because its detectives are experienced in prostitu-tion-related investiga-tions.

Langford didn’t know specifics about the citi-zen’s complaint: “Maybe they heard a rumor or saw something,” she said,

adding that these are the first prostitution-related arrests in Bothell that she can recall.

A Bothell Police officer was on duty in front of the business on Aug. 22 in the evening and informed at least one female customer that the

business was closed. The business’ phone number was disconnected at the Reporter’s deadline.

The business park where the massage and spa (it’s identified by its former name, the Asian Wellness Center, on the front window) is located

also houses several family restaurants, an insurance agency and a convenience store.

Two employees of neighboring businesses noted that they didn’t no-tice anything unusual tak-ing place at the massage and spa establishment.

Silicon Mechanics weathering the economic stormBy Andy nyStroM

[email protected]

When disastrous floods hit Thailand last fall, Eva Cherry and her Silicon Mechanics crew had to rack their brains in order to complete their rackmount-servers orders.

What happened a world away affected the Bothell company since the serv-ers need hard drives, and Thailand is the place where nearly 45 percent of the world’s devices are produced, according to an NPR report.

“The hard-drive-manufac-turing capacity was reduced by almost 30 percent,” said Cherry, 46, a Kirkland resi-dent and Silicon Mechanics president and chief executive officer. “We just got creative about how to fulfill our orders.”

With fewer hard drives available and prices for existing ones skyrocket-ing, Cherry ordered some devices at reasonable prices from Amazon’s Germany location and some from the United Kingdom. She had some hard drives delivered to her mother in her native Germany, and they were soon shipped to Bothell.

“It’s about building flex-ibility into your business, into the culture to feel, ‘Well,

whatever comes our way, we’ll somehow find a way to deal with that and make it through,’” said Cherry of her company, which manufac-tures rackmount servers along with storage and high-performance comput-ing clusters.

The Puget Sound Business Journal recently named Silicon Mechanics one of the Eastside’s 50 fastest-growing

private companies. It made $30 million in 2011 and has been profitable for the last 27 months, said Cherry, adding that the company hopes to hit $35 million in revenues this year. Most of its business is generated in the U.S. and it has 80 to 90 percent repeat customers, from small busi-nesses to larger firms.

“The atmosphere right now is extremely busy,

which is great,” said Steve Wiechert, chief operating officer and chief financial officer. “I think key to our success, especially in this difficult economy, is our ability to work more ef-ficiently than the other guy. We’ve put a lot of things in place that have ensured processes are followed; we’re doing better at documenta-tion, we’re getting the right people on board.”

Cherry, originally from Zwickau in the former East Germany, received her mas-ter’s in business administra-tion from Wits University in Johannesburg, South Africa, and has more than 20 years of executive management experience in technology and manufacturing, includ-ing 10 years as a manage-ment consultant in Deloitte’s Strategy & Operations and Enterprise Applications practices.

She joined Silicon Me-chanics in 2008 and stepped into her current role a year later. The company has been located in Bothell since 2006 and presently has 50 employees, with more on the way, Cherry said.

Her journey from Germany to South Africa and beyond began after the Berlin Wall fell in 1989. She was in Berlin at the time, and

soon a family friend from South Africa suggested she head to that country to Wits University.

“The world’s open all of a sudden,” Cherry said of the wall falling and her ensuing travels.

Cherry has found suc-cess along the way, but the struggling economy affected Silicon Mechanics a few years ago.

In order to weather the economic storm, Cherry, Wiechert and their staff pulled together, were up front with their customers about the firm’s financial situation and kept them on board, informing them that things would soon improve. That’s exactly what hap-pened, and now profits are up, Silicon Mechanics and its valued customers are tighter than ever and Cherry’s em-ployees are thriving under her leadership.

“Internally, I started ‘fireside chats’ and we talked about our financial perfor-mance, what the market was looking like and what our plans were,” said Cherry, who is married, has a Ger-man Shepherd and enjoys skiing, biking and golfing. “It’s neat to see how people have grown over the years, through the tough times,” she added.

President and CEo of Bothell-based Silicon Mechanics, Eva Cherry, said her company has remained profitable in the tough economic climate, citing a $30 million profit margin in 2011. AnDy nySTrOM, Bothell Reporter

...today’s parent

As many of you know, this is a very stressful time of year. To help you and your family

By AleksA OverBy, DirectOr Of kiDDie AcADemy - BOthell

establishing your family routinework together to get through this stress and move forward to establishing a new routine, please keep the following thoughts in mind.

Children often reflect the feelings of adults around them. If you are worried about your

child starting a new school, your child will pick up on this stress and their anxiety can increase drastically. They may think, “Wow, if Mom and Dad are this freaked out about this new school, it must be something really scary!” Of course, many of us will be a little nervous and there’s nothing wrong with driving behind the bus all the way to school to see your child get off the bus safely for the first time but we need to help children learn to be excited about changes and to view them as new opportunities, not as frightening unknowns.

Give yourselves a lot of extra time! No matter how well you plan out your morning, SOMETHING will come up that will alter that ever-so-thought-out plan. If you find that after a few days you really don’t need that extra time in the morning, great! And, going back to

the first point, the last thing that you and your child need to be feeling on top of the excitement of the transition is the feeling of being rushed.

Establishing routines takes time. Everyone needs to be patient and not be discouraged when witnessing some less-than-desirable behaviors come out. Some of the common behaviors you will witness during these transitions include being clingy, increased emotional outbursts or crying, excessive tiredness or lack of tiredness, vocalizing that they don’t want to go to school (we would all love to be on summer vacation all year round!), or changing eating or toileting habits. Just remember, that it is our job to use our self-soothing techniques to model for our children that changes can be fun and exciting as long as everyone works together and remembers to breathe.

Fifth-ranked Cougars ready to bounce backby TIM WATANAbE

[email protected]

Some teams in the tough 4A Kingco league would have been quite satisfied to finish the 2011 football season with a 6-4 record, like Bothell High did last year.

The Cougars, however, are not one of them.

The league powerhouse, fielding one of its young-est teams since head coach Tom Bainter took over in the year 2000, suffered a tough Week 10 defeat last fall to Bethel, 24-22.

The team’s early exit left a sour taste in the mouths of the coaching staff and the players, most of whom return this year to start as upperclassmen under the bright Friday night lights.

“They’re working hard and they’re doing every-thing we’ve asked,” said Bainter on his team’s prog-ress during the offseason and summer practices. “Of course, you’re never where you want to be at this point in the year, but we’re steadily working towards getting there.”

PROVEN RETURNERSWith the amount of

seniors taking the field this year for the Cougars, the “growing pains” of last year, which led to early losses to Mount Si and Newport, should be a thing of the past.

Every single one of Bothell’s linemen is return-ing and had started at least four games last year, led by the physically imposing trio of Chase Madsen (6-4, 270), Nick Omberllaro (6-3, 270) and Dylan Lindsey (6-3, 297).

The Cougars are loaded at other positions, in-cluding picking up of the state’s best running backs – Juanita transfer and BYU commit Darrin Laufasa – in addition to returners Danny Wilson and Kizhan Proctor. On the receiv-ing end, Jared Berry and Aaron Wilks will be look-ing to find their way into the end zone.

Linebacker Camden McLeod, cornerback Re-shon Watson, second team all-Kingco selections last year, will also be impact players for Bothell along with tight end Jeremy Ruef.

One position that the Cougars do not have ex-perience at is quarterback,

but Bainter is excited to see how sophomore sensa-tion Ross Bowers develops.

“He’s done a great job, got a strong arm, he’s de-veloping a great awareness of our offense and he’s im-proving daily on defense,” said the 13th-year coach. “He’ll be all right.”

Bainter, who takes his outstanding Bothell career coaching record of 110-30 (.785 winning percentage)

into the 2012 football sea-son, said that the keys to making a deep playoff run will be avoiding injury and getting better as the season progresses.

“We always talk about staying healthy, that’s go-ing to be key,” he noted. “I think daily improvement is something that good teams that play at the end of the season still do… we’ll have to let Ross develop a

bit, being a younger guy, and the whole team just developing and improving daily.”

INTO THE LION’S DENThe Bothell High School

mascot may be the Cougar, but the early part of the team’s 2012 schedule is akin to being thrown di-rectly into the lion’s den.

Wide receiver Jed Aboulhosn (right) leads the Cougars in some energizing warmups before practice. Aboulhosn scored a fortunate touchdown during the team’s 33-21 loss to Skyline, coming up with a tipped ball from quarterback Ross Bowers for an 11-yard score. TIM WATANABE, Bothell Reporter

Last Friday, the Cou-gars lost to defending state champion and No. 1-ranked Skyline 33-21, and slated for tonight is a matchup against the Bellevue Wolverines, who have held the 3A state championship trophy since 2008 and are ranked as the 8th-best football team in the nation by ESPN.

According to Bainter, the Skyline-Bothell matchup was pre-set, but Bellevue was originally scheduled to play Wood-inville and Bothell’s week two opponent was sup-posed to be Newport.

The Knights, however, have played Bothell three times in the last two sea-sons and were looking for a change of pace, while Woodinville opted out of playing Bellevue, creat-ing a dream matchup for Bainter’s Cougars.

“Bellevue called us and said, ‘Do you want to play?’ and we said, ‘Sure,’” he recalled. “We have a real tough schedule, but it’s a good one. It’ll challenge us for sure and we’ll know after the first couple of weeks where we stand.”

While kids come and go as they advance through Bothell High’s football program, Bainter and his

committed coaching staff are as driven as ever to make a push to return to the Tacoma Dome for the state semifinals, a venue that the Cougars have not experienced since 2009.

“We’re competitive as a staff… but I like to think this team is driven,” Bainter said. “They’ve certainly worked hard and we’ve talked about our (regular season) goals, how to achieve those goals, and reset new ones. There’s been talk about getting back to where we were in ‘06 and ‘07 and ‘09. Maybe this team can do that.”

The Inglemoor Vikings, by any stretch of the imagina-tion, are a better football team than their last two season records of 6-4 (2011) and 5-5 (2010) would indicate. But as longtime head coach Frank Naish knows well, thus is life in the 4A Kingco league – a conference that has sent a team to the state finals every year since 2003.

The 2012 season once again holds a lot of promise for the Vikings, as many im-pact players return including

one of the state’s top lineman prospects in Titus Makasini, a 6-foot-5, 270-pounder who loves putting the hurt on the opposition.

“Titus is a legitimate D-I prospect,” lauded Naish. “What makes him nice is that he runs really well, he’s not just a big, slow guy – you can use him to pull and run counter plays. He’s effective.”

The 34th-year coach also has the luxury of returning both of his quarterbacks from last year, Hans Fortune and Brandon Edwards, giving them depth and options at that position few other teams have.

“It’s up in the air still,” said Naish on which of the two would be tabbed as the starter. “I have that much confidence

that both of them can play. They’ll both get reps.”

Inglemoor got a tough break early this season, losing a key piece of its line, Mikey Tupou, to injury. Tupou is scheduled to return mid-season, but Naish is excited to return his entire backfield, some secondary defense and most of his special teams players, in addition to a trio of tailbacks that can fly around the field, led by Jacob Jones.

During last year’s season opener, Jones returned a kickoff 70 yards for the only touchdown in the Viks’ 10-0 win over Snohomish.

“We’re coming into a season, unlike last year, where we didn’t know anything,” Naish said. “These are guys that really feel they know how to play.”

The Vikings haven’t made it past week 10 of the football season since 2007, when they made it to the quarterfinals.

That year, they were shut out 35-0 by eventual cham-pion Lewis and Clark, and are looking for a little postseason redemption.

“You gotta get to (week 10) and be healthy, last year we were pretty beat up in that game,” Naish recalled. “You gotta get to that game and not have… team drama, team issues, and that was two years ago. Once you get to that level, you better be playing really well.”

Talented Viks ready for redemption

Viking head coach Frank Naish, who serves as the team’s offensive coordinator as well as Inglemoor’s athletic director, goes over a play with his offense at a recent practice. The Vikings fell to Juanita in their season opener, 23-7, and take on Meadowdale tonight at Pop Keeney, kickoff at 7 p.m. TIM WaTaNabe, Bothell-Kenmore Reporter

State’s No. 2 junior basketball recruit transfers to Bothell

Seattle Prep standout Josh Martin, one of the state’s top basketball pros-pects about to enter his junior year, has recently transferred to Both-ell High, according to a report by ESPN’s Husky Nation.

Martin, a 6-foot-7 power forward ranked as the state’s No. 2 prospect by ESPN.com, will be playing with UCLA-bound guard Zach Lavine. Martin has already received an offer to play for the Uni-versity of Washington.

According to a report by the Seattle Times, Martin’s mother Debbie said the relocation was for financial reasons, as her family could no longer afford the tuition at Seattle Prep.

The Bothell High boys basketball team, coached by Ron Bollinger, made its first state tournament appearance in 15 seasons last winter, losing twice to Davis and Mount Rainier after beating Olympia in the regional playoffs, 63-54.

Bothell grad Bedell starting sophomore season for pacific Univ.

Bothell High graduate Haley Bedell is a returning outside hitter for the Pacific University (Forest Grove, Ore.) volleyball squad.

Bedell, a sophomore, appeared in 24 matches last season and finished with 138 kills, 23 service aces and 143 digs.

The Boxers’ 13 wins and fifth-place Northwest Con-ference finish were the best for the team since 2007.

Webster gives back to the game he lovesBy Andy nystrom

[email protected]

Thirty years later, Cody Webster is still tuned in to the Little League World Series.

At age 12, he dominated his opponents while pitch-ing Kirkland National Little League to a 5-0 championship win over Taiwan in Wil-liamsport, Pa. He blasted a 280-foot home run during

that game and helped knock the Taiwanese off their five-straight-titles perch.

On a recent afternoon while sitting in a room at the Northshore Sports Complex in Woodinville, the 42-year-old Kirkland resident and Bothell American Legion baseball coach checked out the TV screen while play-ers from Curacao and Japan played on the same field he

did three decades ago.“It’s fun to watch this stuff.

These kids seem like they’re bigger, stronger, faster nowa-days — they’re so polished,” he said. “I’m pretty sure even if I didn’t experience what I experienced, I’d be watching it because it’s a good show.”

Webster was clearly enter-tained: “Look at how big that kid is — Wow,” he said at one point. “Look how he wears that hat,” he chimed in later.

Following his Little League days, Webster attended Juanita High, where his baseball and football teams won state titles.

During that time frame, he started thinking about coach-ing baseball, which is what he’s done on the Bothell baseball scene for the last six years. He currently coaches the local American Legion U-19 squad, which mainly features players from Bothell High, along with

one each from Inglemoor and Cedar Park Christian.

Webster has coached most of the players since they were 11, including his nephew, Kellen, who will be a junior at Bothell High this year. While his teams have experienced up and down years, he often plays them against older teams to prepare them for high-school ball.

When Webster was about 16 or 17 — the same age range as his players now — he started developing a coach’s mindset.

“I started getting interested and started paying attention more to my coaches and how they did stuff and why they did stuff. Kind of looked at the game in that different way,” Webster said. “Obviously when I was 12, I didn’t think that way — I probably thought I was going to play until I was 90.”

Whether he’s on the ball

field coaching and running camps, or helping play-ers hone their skills at the Northshore Sports Complex, Webster knows that tons of hard work will go a long way toward a player’s success.

He’s relaxed with the kids, works individually with each player to have them play-ing at a top level and, most importantly, doesn’t put a lot of pressure on them, he said. Pressure was in abundance during Webster’s baseball days, and he wants to stay far away from that, he added.

“You’ve got to play every day, you’ve got to put a lot of time and effort into it to be good. That’s what we did, that’s how we won the World Series, that’s what I was taught,” Webster said. “We practiced eight, nine hours a

day leading up to the tourna-ment. Whatever your ceiling is, you’ll never reach it unless you work your butt off.”

Todd Webster, one of Cody’s three older brothers and Kellen’s dad, feels that Cody’s experience as a suc-cessful player translates well into the coaching role. He can relate to his players, both on a personal level and skills-wise, Todd said.

“He recognizes a skill set and he wants the kids to achieve that,” said Todd, not-ing that as a father, he knows that Kellen is in good hands with Cody smoothly guiding the teenager to a higher level, as well.

Near his desk at the sports complex hangs a large, framed picture of the 1982 Kirkland National team. Webster smiled when he looked at those boys of summer and discussed what that time meant to him.

“The thing that I take from the Little League experience is those guys — a lot of them I’m still good friends with. There’s just a special bond there,” said Webster, noting that the sup-portive coaches and players’ families were also crucial parts of Kirkland’s success.

Each time Kirkland won, the boys got to play an-other day. Everyone was still together when the dust on the baseball diamond cleared. Victory was theirs, right up until the last day of the season.

“It was great, we won the World Series,” Webster said. “But it kind of sucked that the summer was over because it was so much fun.”

Webster and his Kirkland National teammates started the nonprofit Pat Downs Founda-tion, named after their 1982 head coach who died in 1997. The foundation raises money for young baseball players who can’t afford the costs to play. For more information visit www.patdownsfoundation.org

Bothell’s Cody Webster lived every Little Leaguer’s dream, hitting a home run during the championship game in a 5-0 win over Taiwan to help Kirkland National to the World Series title. Thirty years later, he has returned to the sport he loves, coaching youth baseball. aNdy NySTrom, Bothell Reporter

Bothell resident completes cross-state bicycle journeyFive day, 300-mile trip honors late wifeRaechel Dawson & anDy nystRom

[email protected]@kirklandreporter.com

Bothell resident Mark Gorow completed his five day bike trip Friday from Seattle to Spokane. It was a journey, he said, that was accompa-nied by the spirit of his wife.

“It was a time of solitude and a time to think,” said Gorow. “I felt like she was on the ride with me.”

Aug. 27 marked the first day of Gorow’s five-day trip in honor of his late wife, Shwulih, who passed away in 2005 from an inoperable brain tumor. She was 45.

To prepare, he rode about 50-100 miles a day, and has participated in the two-day, 200-mile Seattle-to-Portland event the last four years.

His daughter, Zoe Gorow, a Bothell resident, saw Mark off at 8 a.m. Monday in Seattle from the Swed-ish Hospital Neuroscience Institute on Cherry Hill. He stayed with his other daughter Felicia Gorow on day 3 and four other motels along the way.

Mark’s ride raised $1,800 and awareness for the 2012 Seattle Brain Cancer Walk and Team Shwulih.

He tweeted and blogged through-out his trip at www.twitter.com/cyclingforawalk and http://cycling forawalk.word press.com/.

The cyclist rode first to Cle Elum, then to Wenatchee, Moses Lake and Ritzville before hitting Spo-kane on Aug. 31. He rode 60

miles a day on average with a high of 80 and a low of 45.

He described the worst day was his 45 mile ride

from Moses Lake and Ritzville.

“There was absolutely nothing,” Mark said. “It was

only part of the ride, about four or five hours, but it seemed a lot longer.”

But the most rewarding part was the overwhelming support from friends, family and strangers along the way who said he inspired them.

“I’m so proud of him. For him to able to do this as his own healing process is really commendable,” said Felicia, who noted that Mark drove back to Seattle after finish-ing his journey.

Shwulih, who was born in Taichung, Taiwan, met Mark at the University of Washington in 1984 and

they were married three years later.

“Six years ago, I started riding as a way to cope with the loss of my wife. For me, it was challenging myself to do something like this to keep me going.”

Mark, who works in King County Metro’s Web department, said he hopes to be able to raise money for the Brain Cancer walk again in the same way but maybe next year there will be a dif-ferent, slightly harder route.

“For good or bad,” Gorow said, “I have this thing about topping myself.”

Eleanor Catherine (Bird) GreenEleanor, born in Seattle on December

17, 1917, died with her family beside her in Kirkland on July 14, 2012, age 94. Her parents were A. Frank and Esther Bird. After Seattle’s Roosevelt High School, she earned a degree in Sociology from the University of Washington in 1939, where she participated in Delta Delta Delta, the YWCA, and student government, serving as president of the Associated Women Students. Most importantly, she met

Ron Green at the Varsity Ball during their freshman year. They married in December, 1939 and settled in Ron’s hometown of Bothell.

Following work for the UW ticket office, she devoted herself to home and community life. After Ron joined the Army Air Corps, Eleanor joined him in Hondo, Texas. In Bothell after the war, they kept busy with the family Ford agency and expanding the house to provide room for growing children. In the mid-1960s, Eleanor became Director of Volunteers at Harborview Hospital, then Community Resource Coordinator at the Women’s Prison in Purdy. Retiring in 1980, she and Ron returned to Bothell. Beginning in 1999, they enjoyed living at Brittany Park in Woodinville. After Ron’s death two years ago, Eleanor moved to the Golden Spirit Adult Family Home in Kirkland, where she lived with grace and gratitude.

A lifelong believer in civic responsibility and public education, Eleanor helped to found a community cooperative pre-school in the late 1940s and won awards for serving on the Citizens’ Committee and the Recreation Coordinating Council. In the early 1960s, she led a Horizon Club (Camp Fire) group of high school girls, the Bothell Horizon Pioneers. She and Ron served as church historians and as hosts at the Bothell Historical Museum. They helped compile and publish A Slough of Memories, a book of personal accounts of Bothell-Kenmore-Woodinville history. Their interest in international friendships brought frequent guests from abroad into their home, and they traveled extensively during their retirement years.

Survivors are her children Ron Green, Jr. (Claudia), Bothell; Janet Hunter (Richard) San Diego; and Darrell Green (Pam), Redmond, and eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. She is also survived by two dear exchange student “daughters,” Yoko Ueyama Shiga, Japan, and Ursula Mielke-Hoelscher, Germany. Granddaughter Karen Hunter predeceased her. Ron, her beloved husband of 70 years, died in 2010.

A memorial service was held on August 13 at the Bothell United Methodist Church, where Eleanor was an active member for over 70 years. The family suggests memorial gifts to either the Bothell United Methodist Church , 18515 92nd Ave N.E., Bothell, WA 98011; or the Eleanor Bird Green Fund, Camp Fire Central Puget Sound, 4241 21st Avenue West, Suite 200, Seattle, WA 98199-1250.

roaD constructIon comIng to kenmore

The city of Kenmore participates in the county-wide asphalt overlay program, which is part of a maintenance plan designed to prolong the life of city streets. Streets are selected for resurfac-ing using a pavement

management program that rates the conditions of city streets, which allows the city to prioritize streets for maintenance. Streets are then grouped together by location to minimize cost associated with mobiliza-tion of paving crews.

This year’s overlay program was scheduled to begin this week and run for approximately four weeks. However, weather or unforeseen conditions may affect the overall schedule.

Activities will normally take place between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

City officials ask drivers to watch for equipment, flaggers and workers along the road when driving through a work zone, and expect reduced speed limits.

Construction is sched-uled for the following overlay roads:

• Northeast 181st Street from 62nd Avenue Northeast to 67th Avenue Northeast

• Northeast 181st Street from east of improvements at 68th Avenue Northeast to 73rd Avenue Northeast

• Northeast 182nd Street from 64th Avenue Northeast to 66th Avenue Northeast

• Northeast 187th Street/64th Place Northeast from 64th Avenue North-east to end of road

• Northeast 186th Street from 64th Avenue North-east to end of road

ClearChoice team of specialists brings you a dental implant solution that fi ts your budget ... in just one day!*

A LEADER IN DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT

Virtually every adult will lose a tooth, and as we get older, more Americans will suffer with missing and failing teeth. These days, however, there are dental implant solutions that either didn’t exist in the past or which were diffi cult to access. But now, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers are leading the way in innovative dental implant treatments. Dental Implants are a permanent solution for dental problems. And now your treatment, from our team of specialists, can often be accomplished in just one day*… and without the need for additional bone graft surgeries. In fact, dental implants can last a lifetime and have become the treatment of choice for replacement of missing and failing teeth. With more than 10,000 dental implant procedures performed, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers have become a leader in dental implant treatment delivery.

TECHNOLOGY

Every ClearChoice Dental Implant Center includes an on-site 3D CAT Scan. The 3D CAT Scan technology costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. This technology provides three-dimensional and cross-sectional views that allow ClearChoice doctors to examine the quality and density of the bone that will anchor the dental implants; select the correct type and size of implants; determine the precise placement of implants, and avoid the nerves and sinuses.

Since every smile is custom designed, each ClearChoice Center has a specialized Dental Implant in-house lab to custom make your smile.

TEAM OF SPECIALISTS

The technology alone cannot elevate ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers in their fi eld. Our technology is paired with an expert professional team of doctor specialists enabling ClearChoice to empower so many patients around the country to change their lives. These qualifi ed specialists include an oral surgeon who places implants, and a prosthodontist who designs your custom new smile. Each of the doctors has special expertise and can be trusted to deliver your high quality implant care. Dental Implants are a surgical procedure and the ClearChoice doctors have extensive experience in this area including administering anesthesia to provide comfort. Custom fabrication of the patient’s new smile and replacement teeth are accomplished by trained lab technicians in the on-site dental implant lab.

Our local specialists are available for a FREE initial consultation or even second opinions. Why wait, call now!

SATISFACTION & WARRANTY

Whether for a missing single tooth, multiple teeth or a whole mouthful of missing or failing teeth, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers provide comprehensive implant treatment professionally and affordably in a fraction of the time it would take many other professionals. That’s why in an independent study of thousands of patients, ClearChoice patients would overwhelmingly recommend ClearChoice to others† and we warranty our work.

Actual ClearChoice Patient

Before After

“I suffered with bad teeth since I was a teenager.  Imagine dealing with failing teeth so young in life.  As a musician, I’m often in front of an audience. I wanted a rock star smile ... and now I have one.” - Kurt C., real ClearChoice patient

Tooth loss is not your fault. Doing nothing about it is. Come see how easy it is to live the comfortable life you deserve ...
