Three hurdles on the way to a decision on library annexation were cleared last week, setting the stage for an April 17 citywide vote.

At issue is whether Enumclaw cit-izens will retain ownership of their public library or turn operations over to the King County Library System.

Near the close of the Feb. 27 gath-ering of the Enumclaw City Council, City Administrator Mike Thomas noted two steps had been taken that day in Seattle. First, members of the King County Council formal-ly instructed the county’s Records and Elections Department to pre-pare the Enumclaw library issue

for the April ballot. Also Monday, the King County Library System’s board affirmed Enumclaw’s request for annexation, should the April 17 vote be affirmative.

The local step in the process came Monday night when council members named the four people who will be responsible for writing the “pro” and “con” statements that will appear in the Voters Pamphlet. Thomas said the city solicited volun-teers from a list of citizens who had expressed an opinion about annexa-tion during the past year.

A six-hour work-shop, sponsored by the Enumclaw-based Citizens Alliance for Property Rights, is planned for Saturday at Southcenter.

Rosa Koire, founder of

Democrats Against UN Agenda 21 and author of “Behind the Green Mask,” an exposé of how corpo-rations have co-opted the environmental movement, is one of the featured speak-

ers at the seminar, titled “Requiem of the Dream: The Assault on Private Property in America.”

The lineup includes environmental experts; a nationally-recognized expert on government plan-ning; economist Randal O’Toole, a fellow at the Cato Institute; Koire, a forensic real estate appraiser; and Paul Hirsch, a lawyer who is also an environmental scientist.

The workshop precedes CAPR’s annual fund-raising banquet at the Doubletree Guest Suites in Southcenter. The workshop begins at 9 a.m. and will

end at approximately 3:30 p.m. Information, includ-ing a link to register, can be found at http://capr.us/2012_workshop.php.

Those wishing to attend the fundraising banquet can sign up at http://capr.us/banquet_flyer.php.

Citizens’ Alliance for Property Rights was orga-nized in 2003 as a non-partisan, political action committee supporting equitable and scientifical-ly-sound land use regu-lations that do not force private landowners to pay disproportionately for public benefits enjoyed by all.

Buckley Mayor Pat Johnson divulged that

Buckley has now official-ly become “an island” to the Pierce County Transit System and will no longer be part of the transporta-

tion operation.Therefore, Buckley resi-

dents will no longer be charged an extra sales tax on goods purchased in the community, which is where the annual $200,000 fund was being derived from.

Additionally, Buckley will now no longer have to put its time and resources into de-annexing from the transit system.

In other items during the Feb. 28 meeting, coun-

cil members:• accepted a check for

$5,600 from the Wink fam-ily, which annually operates the Fright Factory.

• heard from Jeff and Alice Money, who live near the haunted house on A Street. They logged an official complaint con-cerning the controversial byproducts of running such an attraction, such as vehicle and tour bus lights glaring into their bedroom, people walking

through their yard, loud screaming and the need to chase off young men urinating on the side of their house.

Alice Money related how an intoxicated woman punched her in the face last fall, after being asked to refrain from walking on the Money’s lawn.

Prior to the citizen par-ticipation phase of the meeting, the council had debated whether it would allow the haunted house

again in October.After hearing the

Money’s testimony, the council decided to post-pone the vote and instead host a workshop to study the issue.

In addition to their testi-mony, the Moneys provid-ed the council with a peti-tion signed by disgruntled neighbors who live near the Fright Factory.

and then continued the issue to a second public hearing.

The matter will go before the council again on April 9, at which time a decision is likely to be rendered.

The land in question is bordered by McHugh Avenue on the south and Southeast 424th Street on the north, pushing against the Thunder Mountain Middle School property. The proposal derives its name from the fact that 268th Avenue slices through the area, with most of the land falling on the east side.

Four of the six citizens stepping to the microphone Monday night spoke against the annexation proposal.

“I really do appreciate the rural lifestyle,” neighbor-hood resident Tom Allen said, noting the change is population density “seems excessive for the area.”

If the acreage is pulled

into the city limits, por-tions will be zoned R-1 and R-2, which allows for tradi-tional, single-family homes on city-sized lots.

Allen also cautioned the council against believ-ing everyone in the area supports the idea. While acknowledging that the petitioner has acquired the necessary signatures, Allen noted that just one prop-erty owner could push the level of support below the required level.

“This is not a slam dunk,” he concluded.

Steve Fasoli took a differ-ent approach when he testi-fied in support of annexa-tion. He already sees plenty of traffic through the area, Fasoli said, adding that he would like the opportunity to vote in city elections and receive city services.

Cindy Proctor addressed the council twice, tying the annexation issue to the pro-posed YarrowBay develop-ments in Black Diamond and the eventual fallout in terms of school capacity and

the financial hit on patrons of the Enumclaw School District – particularly those on the Enumclaw side of the Green River.

She criticized what she called a lack of commu-nication between the city of Enumclaw, the city of Black Diamond and the Enumclaw School District.

To Mayor Liz Reynolds, Proctor said, “you’ve lacked leadership on this.”

City Planner Clark Close told the council the 101 acres under consideration is home to approximately 85 people. There are 42 indi-vidual parcels on those 101 acres, he said, that carry an assessed value of $9.8 mil-lion.

The land has, for many years, been included in the city’s Urban Growth Area and it is wedged between a pair of fairly recent annexa-tions.

As things stand now, residents would see their property tax bills decrease if they were annexed into the city.

ment, and Charles Sansone, who will write the opposing view.

The city will take no formal role in creating either the pro or con state-ments.

The library has remained a hot-button issue in Enumclaw in recent years. The council has chipped away at funding, resulting in decreased staffing and curtailed hours of opera-tion. The library has tra-ditionally been supported through the city’s general

fund, but the money to keep the library operating in 2012 was pulled from a pot of cash generated by property sales and lease arrangements. It is seen as a one-time source of funds.

If annexation is approved in April, a transfer of management would begin during the following cou-ple of months. According to terms of an arrange-ment already agreed upon, the King County Library System would take owner-ship and responsibility for the library building, the grounds immediately sur-rounding the brick struc-

ture and the connected parking lots. It is a 50-year agreement and, should the district stop using the building for library pur-poses, ownership would revert to the city.

There are financial implications for city resi-dents. If annexation is approved, Enumclaw property owners would, in January 2013, begin pay-ing taxes to the library district in the sum of 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value. That means an additional $125 on the annual tax bill for the owner of property assessed at $250,000.

So I said, “I was talking to God the other day.”

“Wait,” he said, “You talk to God, I mean not like, eh, pray or something, I mean you talk to God?”

I said, “Hmmm, how do you define praying, if not talking to God?”

He said, “Oh you know, you get down on your knees, usually in a church, and fold your hands and say,’ Our father who art in heaven.’ You know like that.”

“Yes,” I said, “I do do that sometimes, but mostly I just talk to him as I’m driv-ing or sitting in my study or

going for a walk. I usually talk to him through letters in my prayer journal.”

“I see,” he said. “Does he talk back to you?”

I figured he was being sarcastic but I answered him anyway. “Yes, he does actually.”

“Oh, you’re one of those

kind.” The sarcasm left and antagonism took its place.

“Those kind? What do you mean those kind?” I knew where he was going but I egged him on.

“One of those who hear voices and sees visions and that kind

of stuff.” His antagonism started turning to disdain. “So what did he say to you? Did he say anything about me?” His disdain turned to cynicism.

“Yes he did, actually. He said He loved you.” I could see the amusement in his face.

“Yeah, right, God told you that he loved me. You’re a nut. I thought you pastor guys were whacked but now I know it.”

“No really, God said, that He loved the world so much that he sent his only son to

give you eternal life (John 3:16).”

“That’s not God, that’s the Bible. I know that verse. You said he talked to you.”

“Well, God speaks through the Bible, I read the Bible, so he speaks to me. And since you are one of the ‘world’ that he speaks of, he was talking to me about you.” I could see he wasn’t really buy-ing it but I ventured on. “And he says he wants you to love him and that he wants me to love you (Mark 22:30,31).”

With some obvious amusement he said, “So how are you doing with that last part?”

“I’m working on it. But I know that’s what he wants. So do you. Even John Lennon, who tried to imagine God away, knew the truth of that. God wants me to love and care for you

the same as I love and care for myself.” His amusement was contagious. “It’s hard at this moment, but I know that’s what he wants. So I’m working on it.”

“So you don’t really hear voices. I mean, he doesn’t really talk to you.”

“I don’t hear him audibly no, but I know his voice when I hear him speak to me as I seek him in the Bible. He doesn’t speak to my ears, he speaks to my soul, and I know it when I hear it. And to tell the truth, I usually first know he’s speaking to me direct-ly because of the natural resistance I have to what he tells me to do. Don’t get me wrong, I like you, but he tells me that I’m sup-posed to not just care about you but to care for you. I’m supposed to help you, even serve you if you need some-thing from me. My soul resists that. I want to care for myself and get the most for myself. What I naturally want is for you to help me. I want it all to be about me. So when I hear him tell me

to do otherwise I feel his truth way down deep in my soul.”

“Really? Would you wash my car?”

Fortunately for me I could see his car and it was spotlessly clean and it was pouring rain. “If that is the greatest need you have in your life, then sure, I’ll help you wash your car. I don’t really want to, but if that would show you that God loves you, I’m your man.”

“I don’t really need you to do that, I was kidding” he said with the amusement, disdain and cynicism gone, “but I’m sure there are things I could use your help with. Can I call you?”

“Sure,” I said, “that’s what God says I’m supposed to do and my desire is to do what he tells me to do.”

“OK,” he said, looking me in the eyes, “I’ll put that to the test one of these days.”

“Fine,” I said reluctantly, “God and I will be waiting for the opportunity to be of help. Just give one of us a call.”

Go to www.whiteriver.dollarsforscholars.org to get started. The White River Dollars for Scholars schol-arship deadline is March 30.

White River Dollars for Scholars encourages students to begin devel-oping their online pro-files, to assure they are alerted about scholarship opportunities in advance of deadlines. In addition to scholarships, students will also have access to exclusive volunteer and internship opportunities that may be available to them, as well as a wealth of financial aid and col-lege success tools and resources provided by Scholarship America

Time to scream about issue of church and state

Ever since I can remember there has always been a small but very vocal segment of the population trumpet-ing the idea of “separation of church and state.” These folks base their belief in this notion on their interpretation of correspondence between President Thomas Jefferson and the members of the Danbury Baptist Church. In their view the result of said correspondence was that government is protected from interference by religion or the church. That now generally accepted interpreta-tion is used by the secular left to protect our schools and other public places from all those religious fanatics.

I have read the First Amendment several times and no matter how careful I am I just cannot find anything about the separation of church and state. As a matter of fact, the only wording I can find is one that protects the church and people of faith from the government intruding into the practice of their reli-gion – not the other way around.

So…enter stage left…President Barack Hussein Obama and his sec-retary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sillybillyus…or something, whatever…anyway, imagine the surprise when President Obama announced that under his Obamacare plan employ-ers, to include religious entities, will be required to provide healthcare to their employees to include birth control, contraceptives and even the so-called

“abortion pill.”Now the Catholic Church became

very upset about this and started mak-ing a lot of fuss about it. Seems they have a problem with providing these “health services” as they violate the tenets of the faith. Well it seems to me that we should all be upset and making a fuss about this because it violates the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. I ask you, where are all those voices screaming about separation of church and state?

After a bit Barry, oops, I mean the president, realized that he would have to do some damage control ‘cuz folks started saying crazy things like “We are all Catholics now” and making an even bigger fuss. So the president comes out with a great compromise. Employers will still have to provide these servic-es, but if you are a religious organiza-tion, you won’t have to pay for it…your insurance company will. Yep, those big nasty insurance companies will have to give the services to the employees free of charge to boot! What a deal, huh? I ask you, just how stupid does the president think we are?

Who pays the premiums to the insur-ance company? Right, the employer does. So, in effect, the employer is still providing those services that they object to on reli-gious grounds. If the organization objects to and doesn’t pay the premiums how fast do you suppose insurance companies will start dropping coverage for faith-based organizations because of the cost of all the free services?

This great compromise brings up a couple of constitutional questions: where is it written in the U.S. Constitution that the president can mandate a private

company provide any product or ser-vice? Where does he get the power to fine a company that does not comply with his mandate?

The media has been trying, with some success, to get us to think that this is all about contraception and women’s health; don’t buy into that folks. This is about our Constitution and our basic rights. Here is a refresher of the first for those of you who have not read it in some time. (Seems that would be you Mr. President)

“Congress shall make no law respect-ing an establishment of religion, or pro-hibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of griev-ances.”

It is past time to wake up my fellow Americans. While you’ve been sleeping, “The Fundamental Transformation of America” has been rolling on. It’s not too late to contact your representatives and senators and tell them to support the Respect for Rights of Conscience Act. Do a little screaming of you own about the separation of church and state.

More money needed to keep level of service

What services do you expect your Enumclaw city government to pro-vide? Do you expect them to pay for operation of the library? How about

March has always been the start of many things. Spring begins and little buds push through the soil to reach toward our taunting sunlight.

In business, March also marks the beginning of the fiscal year. Many businesses, including The Courier-Herald, use this new beginning as the time to make key changes we feel put us in the best position to succeed for the approaching business cycle.

For our newspaper team, this has meant a slight r e s t r u c t u r i n g , which has brought back a familiar face, and also seen the departure of some of our much-loved employees.

Enumclaw and Bonney Lake will be our new editor, Dennis Box. Dennis is an Enumclaw native, who previ-ously served as the founding editor of the Bonney Lake Courier-Herald. Dennis was promoted to regional edi-tor and has worked in Covington and Kent, overseeing the editorial department for Sound Publishing’s South King County group of newspapers.

Former editor Kevin Hanson is now our senior reporter, and will continue to provide exceptional news coverage.

Dennis returned to help us maintain the quality of coverage provided by Brenda Sexton, our previous senior reporter, who retired last month. Brenda’s out-reach to the community in that role set a new bench-mark, which we are committed to maintain – with your help.

Many of you have also had the pleasure of meeting our lead sports reporter, John Leggett, at school sport-ing events.

The A&U Lumber Company grew out of the Smith-Welte mill that originated in 1908. Pictured above are some of the mill crew. A&U got its name from owners Appleton and Uphus; the latter eventually sold his inter-est in the company to Frank Inglis. The company was founded on cutting trees but, when that waned, the own-ers went into the retail lumber business. A&U was a prominent part of the business community into the 1960s.

hiring a new police officer in the light of our recent annexations and our often short staffing? How about fixing city streets? Which priorities should come first, operating the library, or fixing our streets and hiring at least one more police officer?

These were some of the issues discussed at the Feb. 13 city council meeting when the council agreed to put the question of annexing to the King County Library System on the ballot on April 17. We citizens of Enumclaw need to understand how municipal funding has been deeply impacted by several factors that make it difficult to provide even the core services to our community, and how we as a community must face up to that reality, and quit denying that to properly run a city we must fund those core services.

We are currently fund-ing operation of our library out of a proper-ty fund (Fund 180) that came out the sale of prop-erty on Battersby and the land that the Sears store rests upon. Fund 180 was designated to be used for capital expenses to maintain our buildings: Roofing and other major repairs and other main-tenance.

That money is a reserve fund. Once it is spent, it’s gone forever. Sound finan-cial policy teaches us that we should not use reserves to pay operating expens-es, and yet we did that very thing for budget year 2012. The Council saw that there was a shortfall in the general funds. They decided they were not going to use the money left over from the transfer of the fire department to District 28.

Yet, what will the coun-cil do in 2013 if the KCLS annexation vote is defeat-ed in April? Where will the funding come from when we can’t even hire one new police officer or fix our streets which become more and more costly the longer we delay? At least two council mem-bers have said publicly the city will have to shut down the library because we can no longer afford it.

Property tax money for city operations is declin-ing due to decreased revenue. Because of the Eyman initiative, city government is limited to 1% increases per year when inf lation has been 3% per year or more for most years since vot-ers passed the initiative several years ago. REET (Real Estate Excise Tax), which comes from the sale of houses, has been declining since the Great Recession hit in 2008,

now going on its fourth year.

Some on council sug-gested the city give back the money to the taxpay-ers spent on the library if the KCLS passes. That will further decrease the city’s ability to operate the city to the past levels. Others suggested that we should run a levy to pay for the library, but if we do that, it decreases our taxing abil-ity to raise money to fix our streets and hire new police officers. Again, we must make difficult deci-sions. The city has been making cuts since 2009, and there is not much left to cut. There is no excess fat in city government.

We citizens must face up to the fact that unless we increase our city’s fund-ing, the core services the city has been providing must be cut. There is no such thing as a free lunch. No more tax increases will mean major cuts in service. Are we willing to face reality, or do we think we can cut city income forever and still have the same level of service as we have in the past. We need to wake up to that reality.

Kevin McCallister is the protagonist of the iconic ‘90s movie, “Home Alone.” Kevin -- age 8 -- is mistakenly left at home during the Christmas season after his family flies to France to celebrate the holiday. Kevin must defend his home against bumbling burglars and generally fend for himself.

While the premise of “Home Alone” is a humorous one, and Kevin certainly has the smarts to outwit the two fool-ish thieves and seems relatively self-sufficient, in real life the idea of letting an 8-year-old stay home by himself is one that would no doubt raise an eyebrow. In fact, many states have laws in place that regulate the age at which a child is legally able to stay home alone.

... Stay Home Alone?Age limits vary according to area and can be verified

by contacting one’s local child welfare agency. However, the National SAFEKIDS Campaign recommends that no child younger than 12 be left at home alone. It is only by the age of 12 or 13 that kids are able to think logically and self-supervise for an extended period of time. Even at this age, it isn’t recommended that pre-teens stay at home alone overnight.

... Use the Oven?With adult supervision children can begin cooking with

the oven and the stove top at age 12. Parents may want to wait until the child is 14 before allowing him or her to cook foods unsupervised. Proper training on safety procedures, including how to use a fire extinguisher, should be given before enabling a child to use appliances unattended.

... Shower or Bathe Alone?This is really a case of personal preference. The American

Academy of Pediatrics Policy states that children younger than 4 should not be left alone around or in water due to the risk of drowning. Parents can gauge whether a 5- or 6-year-old child is mature enough to shower or bathe on his or her own, since at this time some children experi-ence embarrassment or issues of privacy as they become more aware of their unclothed bodies. Even if the decision is made to allow unsupervised bathing, parents can regu-larly check in on the child to ensure that he or she is OK.

Home alone? Some kids are up to the task

Leaving children home alone means balancing the needs of work schedules with the safety of children. Courtesy photo

Meet Marianne Binetti at 11 a.m. Saturday at Furney’s Nursery (www.Furneysnursery.com) for a free talk, “Welcome to Spring.”

She will speak at 2 p.m. Saturday at Overlake Hospital’s Active Senior Fair, the topic being “Garden Opera: Heroes, Villains and Divas.”

All I am saying, is give peas a chance.

This is the week to leap into spring as February stretches into March and it is time to plant the seeds of a healthy harvest. Plant pea seeds now if your soil is well drained or you gar-den in raised beds. Delay planting if you can grab a handful of soil and a good squeeze causes water to run through your fingers. This means the soil is still too wet and seeds could rot.

In most areas, sweet peas, garden peas, bare root strawberries, raspberries, fruit trees, rhubarb and asparagus can be planted now.

If you’ve never grown peas from seed you are missing one of the sublime sensa-tions of tasting the sweet

color green. Like tomatoes and sweet corn, home-grown peas have a superior flavor. Our kids preferred fresh peas to candy and we still serve them in the pod as portable snacks and after -dinner treats.

You don’t need a vegeta-ble garden to harvest a crop of peas. A pot at least 2 feet deep or half-barrel planter can provide enough root room for a small harvest. There are several types of dwarf or bush peas perfect for small gardens, and there is a short-growing sweet pea you can even grow in a window box. Imagine swooning from the sweet fragrance every time you open the window.

All three of the varieties below are sold by local Ed Hume seeds, easy to order online or to find in seed racks at local nurseries.

Best pea for the begin-

ning gardenerAlaska peas:

Super-early har-vest from this more cold-resistant pea that ripens on bushy vines that grow only 2 to 3 feet tall.

Best Pea for the gourmet cook or a lazy gardener that

doesn’t want to shell peasOregon Sugar Pod II:

Edible pod pea perfect for stir fries or eating fresh. The bushy vines grow to 4 feet so use all those fallen twigs and branches from the wind storm to poke into the ground and support the seedlings as they grow.

Best sweet pea for the romantic at heart

Dwarf sweet peas “Little Sweet Heart.” Another bush variety but these are bloom-ing sweet peas, the old-fashioned fragrant flower that still inspires sonnets to be written, music to be composed and old folks to fall in love all over again.

In our small town the local post office often dis-plays a Mason jar full of cut flowers during the summer, home grown by the friendly employees. When the sweet peas are in season, some

visitors confess they post a letter every day – just to have an excuse to visit that vase of fragrant sweet peas. Bury your nose in an old fashioned sweet pea bou-quet and all will be right and sweet with the world.

Pea Planting TipsWork or loosen the soil

and then add steer manure or compost as peas love organic matter.

Soak the seeds overnight or pre-sprout them by wrap-ping in a damp dishrag for a few days.

Dig a trench 6 inches deep. Lay two inches of manure into the bottom of the trench. Cover the manure layer with an inch of soil then set the pea seeds into this trench. Add anoth-er inch of soil on top of the peas. As the peas grow, fill in around the seedlings until the trench is filled.

If planting in a window box or container garden or if your soil is well worked (this means it is light and fluffy) you can simply poke the pea seeds 4 inches down into the soil.

It pays to follow the spac-ing instructions on the seed pack. Crowded seedlings are prone to disease.

Pea PestsBait for slugs and cover

the crop with netting to keep out the crows. These intelligent birds watch you plant the seeds, read the label that says the peas will spout in 10 days, then arrive on that very same day to pluck each seed from the

soil. Of course, these feath-ered thieves wait until they hear the shower running or watch until your car drives away so you never catch them in the act.

At QFC, young people are a vital asset to our business. Our courtesy clerks play a key role in our stores: keeping our checkstands stocked and sparkling, greeting customers, helping them fi nd items and, of course, taking their orders to their cars. A beginning job as a courtesy clerk has served as a springboard to a career as a store manager or company executive for untold numbers of our company leaders, past and present. We value the contributions of our youngest associates and know the potential they possess to lead productive lives as adults, and we are proud to sponsor two charities this month which are each working with care to bring out the potential in the youth they have chosen to serve. Treehouse in King County provides a variety of programs to support foster children and Trillium Family Services in Oregon focuses on helping youth with behavioral and mental health issues.

Treehouse began through the efforts

of volunteer caseworkers in the late 1980s and didn’t hire paid staff until 1993. The goal was and is to develop programs to meet the unique needs of children in foster care. As its website notes, “Treehouse makes a difference in their lives by helping with school, fulfi lling key material needs and paying for extras that are, for most kids, just a regular part of growing up.” There are six programs for foster kids that help them with things like clothing and school supplies, taking part in activities like driver’s education, going to summer camp, getting tutoring and preparing for college.

Trillium Family Services was formed in Oregon in 1998 and has an integrated treatment system with a statewide reach to serve more than 5,000 children and families each year. The children who are treated at Trillium Family Services have mental and behavioral health issues. These can include: severe depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia,

aggressive behaviors, attention defi cit disorder and other conditions. Trillium offers specialized therapeutic programs with age-appropriate activities to provide cost-effective care that can help to teach teens and young adults the life skills necessary to cope with their mental health challenges and become successful adults.

QFC is proud to partner with Treehouse and Trillium Family Services to raise awareness about the important

work they are involved in and to help raise funds to support the services they offer to their young clients. We invite you to make a donation at any QFC checkstand or designate your bag reuse credit to Treehouse in Washington or Trillium Family Services in Oregon until March 31st.

Leaving the door open or encouraging the child to sing a song so that a par-ent can hear him or her is another option.

... Take a Shower Instead of a Bath?

Again, this is an issue of preference for both the parent and the child. Some kids take to showering like a duck to water. Others are insecure in the shower and prefer bathing. If a 5- or 6-year-old child is capable of washing his or her body and rinsing shampoo from his or her hair, parents can allow them to shower alone and see how things go. Install a nonskid bath mat to help prevent falls. In addition, limit the shower time to 5 or 10 minutes to lessen the chance for hijinks.

... Stay Alone Overnight?Although a teenager may

be able to stay alone over-night by age 15 or 16, a child’s maturity level should carry significant weight in the decision-making pro-cess. It is also important for parents to realize that laws regarding partying that involve underage drinking often place the responsibil-ity on parents -- some of whom have served jailed time as a result of teens get-ting out of hand. Parents can think about whether the child is the one who wants to stay home alone overnight or if it’s the par-ents’ wish to go away sans kids. If the child doesn’t feel comfortable no matter the age, he or she shouldn’t be left alone.

... Babysit Another Person?

There are no rules gov-erning the acceptable age at which a child can watch another child. Usually by age 14 a child is mature enough to watch a sibling for a little while. Unless the sitter is well known and comes recommended by others, parents may want to insist their babysitters are at least 14 or 15. Leary parents can share childcare duties with other friends who have kids.

There is no guidebook for parenting, and many times caregivers must use their own judgement when deciding whether a child is physically and emotion-ally ready to do many of the things adults take for granted. While there are laws governing when a person can drive or drink alcohol, there are no such guidelines for many other important milestones. Parents often have to use their own discretion.

The Enumclaw Rotary Club is, for the fourth year, teaming up with World Vision and inviting local churches, community groups and individuals to join volunteers worldwide who assist AIDS victims by providing Caregiver Kits as part of an Enumclaw community project. Last year the project raised a little more than $4,400 and assembled approximately 150 kits.

One way to get involved is to join Enumclaw Rotary between 8 to 10 a.m. Saturday for a pancake-and-eggs breakfast at the Applebee’s restaurant in Bonney Lake. The meal is $10 with half that amount going toward the purchase of AIDS Caregiver Kits. That morning, Enumclaw Rotarians will be the waiters and wait-resses, and Applebee’s kitchen staff will do the cooking.

Anyone or any group can get involved with the international Caregiver Kit project.

This World Vision project supports the volunteers who are already trying to care for the nearly 40 million people currently infected with HIV with very few tools. Nearly 3 million people die as a result of AIDS each year with a total of 25 million people dying since it was first identified in the 1980s. Today, one in every eight people contracting HIV is a child younger than 15. There have been some improvements in preventing infection and conversion to AIDS, but many of the victims are in very poor areas with little or no health care. The village volunteer may be one of the few care

providers available.The Caregiver Kits are strong cases filled

with anti-diarrheal medicine, batteries and flashlight, acetaminophen, cotton balls, washcloths, notebook and pen, latex gloves, petroleum jelly, soap, and, what touches the volunteer caregiver the most, a per-sonal note thanking them for their work. Each kit costs $30. Kit contents are sup-plied and then shipped by World Vision – with the kit assembly done by community organizations.

There are additional ways to join the Enumclaw effort to help raise the neces-sary funds:

• Purchase a Taco Time fundraiser cou-pon Books for $1 from a Rotarian. All pro-ceeds go to the Caregiver Project.

• Sponsor the cost of one or more kits.• Volunteer to assemble the kits from 1 to 3

p.m. June 9 at the Enumclaw Senior Center.Enumclaw Rotary Club is supporting

this event as an international project and has contributed $500. Other community groups have expressed an interest in par-ticipating. To join the effort, see photos of previous year’s event or for informa-tion, contact the Enumclaw Rotary Club by visiting www.enumclawrotary.com. On the homepage, click on AIDS Event under download, and/or e-mail questions to the International Service Committee via the link on the left side of the homepage. Information also is available be phoning Nancy Baer at 360-825-4484.

Ten years ago, Aaron Brenner came to town and opened a bakery in the alley behind Vinnie’s Deli and the Village Shop. Today, both those businesses have folded, but the bakery is still going strong.

Arron produces all kinds of unique and tasty breads and pastries from fam-ily recipes that have passed through several generations for at least 100 years and he justifiably takes consider-able pride in the fact that he uses all-natural ingredi-ents and no preservatives. Arron delivers his products to many local restaurants and stores and all around the Puget Sound region from Tacoma to Seattle.

In 2009, he opened a deli and espresso bar in front of his bakery, facing Cole Street, that specialized in his pastries and sandwich-es made, of course, from his bread, but he recently closed that part of his oper-ation. The deli wasn’t losing money, but it simply didn’t merit the time and energy it required.

“Enumclaw has enough

coffee shops,” Arron says with an insightful little smirk. Then too, his bakery business has recently taken off and therefore needs more of his attention.

A few months before he closed the deli, the adjacent Village Shop also folded up and cleared out its invento-ry. So, in conjunction with the deli, this left another rather large, vacant store-front on Enumclaw’s main street, which is the last thing our suburban enclave needs.

Fortunately, Kyle and Kari Diercks came to our rescue. They’re currently at work renovating the site for a retro look; that is, they’re stripping the 100-year-old building of its modern trap-pings and resurrecting its original appearance. When

this project is complet-ed, they plan to open the “Mountain Aire Mercantile,” which will feature a natural goods grocery with locally produced meats, chees-es, eggs, produce and other regional goods, including Aaron’s bread and local beers and

wines. They’ll also have a deli that will offer home-made soups, sandwiches, other specialties and an espresso bar.

In short, Mountain Aire wants to celebrate local orchards, dairy farmers, fishermen, artisans and the Plateau area in general. They hope to open in May.

After living in half-a-dozen cities scattered all over the world, from Hong Kong to New York, the Diercks bought a vacation home in Greenwater 10 years ago. Last year they decided to settle down in the Enumclaw area full-time and, after all their worldwide travels, this is quite a compliment for our community. Apparently, they were impressed by

the Cascades, convenient outdoor activities, our fine schools and friendly people.

I sometimes lapse into a

reminiscent mood and find myself missing, once again, the noise, crowds, hectic pace and savage energy of Manhattan. I guess none of

us is ever completely satis-fied with our current sta-tion in life.

Why do we think we should be?

Sandwiching Thursday and Saturday vic-tories around a Friday evening loss allowed the White River High girls to claim a third-place finish in the Class 2A state basketball tournament.

The Hornet girls joined seven other hoop hopefuls for the three-day extravaganza staged in the Yakima SunDome. All had survived the regular season, plus district and regional battles, to earn a spot in the 2A’s Elite Eight and a trip to Yakima.

For White River, the third-place show-ing ties for the best finish in school history. The 2000 club also placed third while competing at the Class 3A level.

“I was very pleased,” veteran coach Chris Gibson said. “If someone had told me at the beginning of the season we’d go 27-3 and take third at state, I would have taken it.”

Gibson had high praise for this year’s squad, pointing to a strong work ethic and team camaraderie.

“They do things the right way,” he said.

White River 42, Blaine 28Thursday, March 1

Neither team shot well, but that’s not uncommon during the first day of a state tournament. Each connected on just 18 percent of their shots from two-point range. The biggest difference was White River’s ability to get to the free-throw line; the Hornets went 21-of-33 from the stripe while the Borderites were good on 11 of their 19 attempts. The White River bench also made a difference, outscoring Blaine’s nonstarters 14-4.

Senior Cassidy France was particular-ly active, scoring nine of her game-high

15 points at the line. Freshman Kristin Sturdivan also cracked double figures, draining three 3-pointers on her way to 11 points.

After trailing 9-8 following the first quarter of play, White River rattled off a 15-4 advantage during the second frame and never looked back.

East Valley-Yakima 46, White River 40

Friday, March 2No one wants to start a tournament

game ice cold, but that’s exactly what hap-pened to the Hornets. White River found itself trailing 12-0 and didn’t make a field goal until Kennedy Hobert’s layin at the buzzer.

The second quarter was a different story entirely, as White River suddenly got hot, outscored the Red Devils 15-8 and trailed just 20-17 heading into halftime. The third quarter showed the Hornets were for real, as White River took a lead on the No. 2-ranked team in the state.

Perhaps the rally took a toll on the team. White River led by three heading into the final eight minutes of the contest but could muster only six points during the fourth period.

“We had some good looks, but just missed shots,” Gibson said.

Again, free throws played a crucial role in the outcome. The Hornets outscored the Red Devils from the field, but were sent to the free-throw line just four times, making two. The Yakima crew connected on 15 of their 20 attempts from the stripe.

Hobert, who was named to the all-tour-nament team, led the Hornets with 17 points and 10 rebounds.

White River 56, Lynden 46Saturday, March 3

Anyone who thought the Hornet girls would drop into a deep funk following Friday’s loss was mistaken.

Trophies times two for Hornets

Since the days of Roman gladiators, it has been an important factor in an athlete’s self-preservation to emerge victorious in the close ones.

In the three games that an under-dog White River boys basketball squad competed in during the Class 2A state basketball championships in Yakima’s SunDome, the Hornets won a pair of cliff hangers before being thrown to the ferocious Lynden Lions Saturday afternoon. It was a little like the Christians being tossed to a merciless den of lions, as nothing could have saved the Hornets against a red-hot and deep Lynden team that outrebounded WRHS nearly 2 to 1 to become the latest Class 2A state cage champion. Lynden outscored White River 58-34 in the final three peri-ods to cruise to a convincing 66-45 triumph.

“No excuses, Lynden is a very tal-ented and very deep squad, with a fabulous bench,” Hornet coach Rick Tripp said.

“By the second quarter of that championship tilt, we were f lat out fatigued,” he said, pointing particu-larly to Alex Sayler, who had spent considerable energy defensively.

Tripp and his troops finished the season with the second-best overall season mark in White River boys bas-ketball history at 24-7.

Lynden boss Brian Roper admit-ted that White River’s quickness on defense had given his cagers head-aches early. Lynden fell behind 11-8 after the initial quarter.

Just as it had against Sumner High in the Sweet 16 state regional round at Mount Tahoma High two weeks ago, the cavalry came charging to the res-cue when Lynden reversed the trend with a trio of players going 11-of-13 from the f loor, pushing the Lions to a 29-18 advantage at intermission.

Try as the enormous throng of faithful fans and followers might to exude strength against Lynden, it was apparent that White River sim-ply didn’t have much left in the tank after the previous two evening’s hero-ics. The fact that the vaunted senior guard tandem of Billy Kiel and Jason Tyler combined for 26 points couldn’t make up for the fact that Sayler – the Lilliputian but lively backcourt threat who at times carried the Hornets to a postseason run that saw them go 8-for-10 – was held scoreless in the lopsided affair. Lynden played some stellar defense to hold Sayler to 0-for-9 from the f loor and did not send him to the foul line.

In the previous two evenings the hot rod entry from Buckley had refused to lose as it was given the checkered f lag twice; once trimming the feisty Bulldogs of Ellensburg 67-65 in over-time Thursday night and then slip-ping past the Lindbergh Eagles 41-40 in the bonus frame Friday.

Sayler, right along with Kiel, Tyler and the rest, definitely exceeded Tripp’s expectations in regard to what the campaign might hold for a group that hadn’t gone deep into the playoff jungle for years. Did he envision a state tourney trip? No, he admits.

“This great group of guys did seem to peak at the right time,” Tripp said, noting that the only losses during an 8-2 playoff run were in the district title game against Sumner and in the state finale against Lynden.

White River High’s Marcus Dickson, who has electrified South Puget Sound League 2A track fans, got his senior season off to a fantastic start at the Brooks Athletic Gear Invitational.

Competing in the 1-mile run, Dickson came out of the gate fast and never looked back as he covered the dis-tance in 4 minutes, 7 sec-onds, exceeding his previous best in that event by a full six seconds and setting a Brooks Invitational record.

The meet, staged at the

Dempsey Indoor Field House facility on the University of Washington cam-pus, was Dickson’s initial serious jaunt of the spring cam-paign.

While excel-ling at the mile, Dickson maintains that the events offering him the greatest personal reward are the 200 and 400 meter sprints. The most grueling, he adds, is the 800 meters,

a harrowing mix of speed and endur-ance.

Dickson eclipsed his school’s long-standing record in the 800 meters by galloping to an eye-popping time of 1:53.52 at last May’s Class 2A subdis-

trict track and field festival in Sumner’s Sunset Chev Stadium.

With a growing list of accomplishments, Dickson

has drawn the attention of collegiate track coaches around the country and is currently entertain-ing offers from such track and field giants as Brigham Young University, Boise State University and the legendary University of Oregon track program, which seems to spe-cialize in distance running.

While Dickson has not yet decided where he will be lacing the shoes to his fleet feet in the spring of 2013, he hopes to do so soon.

Dickson leaves field in dust

By Kevin HansonSenior Writer

There were temptations aplenty as Scott Rose decided where he would spend the next four years of his life.

Large, Division I programs made limited offers and a powerful Big Sky suitor came calling with a last-minute pitch. But, in the end, the White River High football stand-out knew in his heart what was best.

“It just felt right,” Rose said of his even-tual commitment to tiny Menlo College in Atherton, Calif. “It was a real good fit right away.”

As Rose played his senior season for the Hornets, interest built in the 6-foot-4, 295-pound tackle. He was noticed by Pacific 12 programs like the University of Washington and Washington State and

even had a discussion with Boise State, which has become a national power. Each of those programs offered Rose the same opportunity, to become a preferred walk-on. Such players initially pay their own way with hopes of performing well enough to land a scholarship.

At the same time, Rose was clearly on the radar of the coaching staff from Menlo, a program that was on the way to building a 5-5 record while play-ing an entirely independent schedule. Menlo’s coaches invited Rose to attend their game in Puyallup against Pacific Lutheran University. In short order, Rose was hopping on a plane on a Friday night – following a White River game – and jetting to the Bay Area to visit the Menlo campus and watch the Oaks take on Oregon’s Willamette University.

With an eye toward earning a degree in sports management, Rose wanted to see what Menlo offered academically. From that standpoint, Menlo – which bills itself as The Silicon Valley’s Business School – was a slam dunk.

“They had exactly what I wanted to study,” Rose said. And an advertised ratio of one professor per 14 students doesn’t hurt.

It was the only recruiting visit Rose would take, but the decision to attend the institution less than 30 minutes from San Francisco almost was derailed. The University of Montana was a late entry into the game, suddenly offering Rose the same full-ride scholarship Menlo had put on his plate.

The Grizzlies play in the respected Big Sky Conference and are the biggest draw

in football-mad Montana. Switching his allegiance to Missoula, where the Griz boast a program of national renown, was tempting, Rose said. But his instincts left him leaning south to Atherton.

A key selling point was the opportu-nity to play right away. Menlo’s new coach, Mark Speckman, and his staff have told Rose they hope he can make an immediate impact.

“They want me to start right away,” Rose said, adding that coaches have penciled him in at the crucial left tackle position.

Shrugging off the obvious pressure that comes with starting as a freshman, Rose takes the glass-half-full view. “I look at it as a great opportunity,” he said, envision-ing four seasons as an anchor on the Oaks’ offensive line.

The White River Wolverines are now the of� cial football and cheerleading feeder program to White River High School!

It is with great excitement and support of the White River head foot-ball coach Sprouse and other participating middle school coaches, that we announce this partnership. Although this decision wasn’t an easy one, we felt it was necessary for the long-term bene� t of the organization. We look forward to a future where kids can thrive and grow in the fundamentals of junior football and cheer from the elementary level all the way to high school.

This organization will remain non-pro� t and is dedicated to the development and growth of boys and girls to become better citizens through teamwork, self-pride, dedication and sportsmanship. This organization will operate in the best interest of White River kids and the community it serves!

ALL-LEAGUE FROM 15

“I was proud of the way we came back and played very well,” Gibson said. “I liked the energy we showed and the passion we played with Saturday.”

That doesn’t mean the Hornets made it look easy. A 15-point halftime lead (34-19) was whittled to nine points in the third quarter. The Lions outscored White River 15-9 during those eight

minutes to cut the margin to 43-34 heading into the fourth quarter. The Hornets weathered the brief in fine fashion, though, and went on to claim then third-place hardware.

White River had its best shooting night of the tournament, connecting at a 48 percent clip from the field. And, again, the Hornets held the advantage at the foul line, making 17 free throws to Lynden’s eight.

France led the offense with 12 points and Hobert chipped in with 10.
