Walking into Peggy Petty’s Issaquah base-ment on a Tuesday morning, you feel like you’ve entered a happy version of a sweat shop. Up to a dozen women might be there, cutting, stretching, sewing and ironing, creat-ing so� , lovely quilts and other items for the less fortunate.

� ey call themselves the Needle Brigade. Most of them met swimming at Julius Boehm Pool. Petty said they sort of inherited the project, but you can tell they love what they’re doing.

� ese foot soldiers of fabric create quilts, nightgowns for children, little hats for prema-ture babies, hats for cancer patients and ta-blecloths for the Elks club for their banquets and free senior dinner each Christmas.

“If someone needs help, they call,” Petty said.

� e group is set up as a 501c3 nonpro� t. Most of the fabric they use is donated, except for � eece, which they use to back some of the quilts. � e women keep their eyes open for coupons from Joann Fabric, and they are always open for donations of sewing items or fabric.

Nothing goes to waste. Any scraps of mate-

rial they have le� over go to a lady in Centra-lia who makes pillows.

Most of the quilts and baby items are for Eastside Baby Corner, but the preemie hats go to Children’s Hospital in Seattle and the cancer hats are for Overlake Hospital and Group Health. � ey also make wheelchair bags for Providence Marianwood in Is-saquah.

BY KELLY MONTGOMERYISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Earlier this month, 11 Eastlake High School students traveled to Cuba to expand their Spanish skills and gain some global cultural insight.

“Going to Cuba was a lot like time traveling, every-thing there has history,” said Carmen Callahan, an Eastlake junior. “Learning more about Cuban history was really fascinating, espe-cially because I didn’t know much about Cuba before the trip.”

Sophomore Morgan Pearl said she went on the school-sponsored trip to the Dominican Republic last year, but she wasn’t sure she wanted to go to Cuba.

“I knew it was really safe,” Morgan said. “But I wasn’t sure if it was the right trip for me. My parents put a lot of pressure on me to go because they thought it was a great opportunity. � ey said, ‘When will you ever be able to go to Cuba again?’”

Morgan’s sister, Madison, a senior, also took the trip.

“I went to the Dominican Republic last spring break with Ms. Egashira and had an amazing time. So when I heard about Cuba, I knew

I had to go,” Madison said. “Not many people get this opportunity, so I thought I should take it.”

Alicia Egashira has been at Eastlake for 13 years, teaching both Spanish and French. Cuba was her eighth trip with Eastlake students, having been to Costa Rica, Peru, Europe, Guatemala and Belize, Argentina and Uruguay, Ecuador and the Galapagos Islands and the Dominican Republic before.

“Being on an educational visa was di� cult because of the restrictions we had in terms of where we could go and who we could interact

with, but not in a bad way. Just di� erent,” Egashira said. “I went to Cuba about 10 years ago, but it was a di� erent experience because I was able to travel freely.”

Egashira said that they stayed at Hotel Comodoro in Havana, where they spent the majority of their time. However they also traveled to Las Terrazas and Vinales. Some of their major activities included visiting Jose Fuster’s house, one of Cuba’s most famous artists, visiting historical Cuban caves and spelunk-ing, going to Las Terrazas, a small community and

nature reserve in the moun-tains, and visiting the � rst privately owned bookstore.

For junior Rebekah Horne, the trip was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

“You can’t go to Cuba without an educational license, so when the op-portunity to go where so few Americans have been before came up, I took it,” she said.

Morgan and Madison said that many people had concerns about them going to Cuba, asking how they were able to travel there with the U.S. embargo. What many don’t know, is that people can in fact travel to Cuba if it is for academic, cultural or ath-letic reasons.

“People think it’s more dangerous than it really is,”

Madison said. “I think a lot of people don’t realize how much the Cubans want to know what the United States is like. � ey’re hon-estly some of the friendliest people I have ever met, so I think it’s sad that so many people have such skewed views of Cuba. I think Cuba

Commission picks location for new skate parkBY LINDA BALLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

� e Issaquah City Council got a number of “thumbs up” for the loca-tion of a new skate park from residents, including kids, Monday night. As one youngster named Levi noted, Top Pot doughnuts is only a block away, so how can that be bad?

A citizen’s advisory committee considered seven sites, � nally settling on one in Tibbets Valley Park because of its open-ness and proximity to the Issaquah Transit Center. In addition, there is a bu� er between the site and New-port Way. Also, parking is abundant in an adjacent lot that also serves people using the ball � elds.

Comparisons to the skate park in Sammamish, which is well-lit and heav-ily used given its safe and family-friendly location by Sammamish City Hall and the library, were brought up more than once at pub-lic meetings in Issaquah. In contrast, Issaquah’s current skate park is rarely used for skating, but more for illegal activities since

it’s hidden away from plain sight.

� e new skate park will be 8,000 to 10,000 square-feet, much larger than the existing park o� of the Rainier Trail by the Issaquah Community Center which is only 5,600 square-feet.

Last year the city ap-

proved $350,000 in the 2014 budget to build a new skate park and demolish the old one. Brian Bernsten with Issaquah Parks and Recreation said the old park won’t be demolished until the new one is built.

Funding will come from $150,000 of real estate excise taxes and $200,000 from the park mitigation

fund. � e location will be re-

viewed by the council ser-vices and safety committee May 1, before returning to full council May 19 for � nal approval. Next steps a� er that will be the design phase.

Beautiful Plants for $4.97 each! My Wife is Crazy. I keep telling her to raise her prices but she keeps saying, “No, no, no. I want people to get a good deal.” I get that, but $4.97 for Japanese Maples? That’s nuts.

She’s got Dogwoods, Redbuds, a bazillion different Shrubs, Groundcovers, Herbs, Hostas, and more Daylilies than I can count.  She’s practically giving them away at $4.97.

She’s even selling Judy Zuk Magnolias and Summer Gold Dogwoods - $80 trees retail - for less than $50! Sheesh!

Parks department looks at a different method to upgrade poolBY LINDA BALLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Half of the $10 million park bond passed by voters in November is set aside to restore the aging Julius Boehm Pool in Issaquah.

But instead of the customary design, bid, build methodology, the City Council approved an interagency agreement with the Washington State Department of Enterprise Services to renovate the pool under a perfor-mance contract, at the April 21 regular meeting.

Under the agreement, DES furnishes the personnel and services to do the work. The department has 13 contractors they work with said Todd Flynn, an engi-neer with DES who will be the project manager.

Parks Manager Ric Patterson said the city will save money on staff time to review all the requests for

qualification — 2,500 pages — that DES has already reviewed. He wouldn’t throw out a specific number, but Flynn said the savings is 20-25 percent.

The majority of the savings comes in energy per-formance, Flynn said. Windows, insulation values, heat recovery components, operational changes and water savings are just a few of the systems the DES will examine. Flynn said typically they do retrofits, not new construction, with the goal of energy savings. DES has done a pool before — Julius Boehm is over 40-years-old.

“Hopefully we’re here to provide oversight — be the advocate for the city,” Flynn said.

Patterson said the next step for the city is to inter-view the 13 contractors that have been vetted by DES. If one is selected, the contractor must then perform an investment-grade audit where measurements are taken

to determine how much energy the pool is using. That will give the contractor and engineers a guideline to seek new technology to make the facility more energy efficient.

If the city is not happy with any of the contractors, they still must pay for the audit, and continue to a de-sign, bid, build scenario.

The $5 million budget is controlled by the city and includes a contingency fund. “Obviously,” Flynn said, “DES intends to stay within the budget.” The program has been around since 1986, but it was called General Administration, which incorporated several agencies.

The city also gets a performance guaranty — no sur-prises. Change orders would be limited to items such as the new pool liner and deck surfacing.

Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District receives clean audit

�e Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District received a clean audit report from the state auditor’s o�ce at the April 14 board of commissioners meeting.

In recognizing the district’s sound fiscal management, the state representa-tive highlighted the district’s history of clean audits and extended the option to SPWSD to audit on a less frequent basis, due to confidence in its fiscal practices.

The state auditor’s office performs a financial and accountability audit on an annual basis.

In reporting to the board, the state representative noted that the district has had no findings in over 10 years.

The district has an annual budget of $29 million, a staff of 49 and is a regional provider of water and sewer service to nearly 55,000 residents of areas of the cities of Sammamish and Issaquah and unincorporated King County.

The Sammamish Plateau Water and Sewer District provides water services to over 17,000 customers and sewer ser-vices to nearly 11,000 customers.

Apparently good schools aren’t enough in the Lake Washington School District. Too many voters want them cheap as well. While a slight majority of voters

approved a $404 million bond for new schools Tuesday, the district needed a 60 percent “yes” vote for the measure to pass.

� e defeat could haunt the district for years.� e district, which includes the Sammamish area, expects

to see an additional 4,000 students in the next eight years. � at’s not surprising. � e state just this week honored 25 of its schools with achievement awards. Of them, 17 were singled out for overall excellence.

� e bond issue would have built three elementary schools, a middle school and replace and expand Juanita High School. Money also would have gone to build a school focused on science, technology, engineering and math.

Bond opponents want the district to build more a� ordable schools. We’ll probably see that happen shortly. � ey’re called portables.

The defeat of King County Proposition No. 1, to help pay for transit as well as road maintenance and improve-

ments, puts pressure on the Legislature to deal with this issue on a statewide basis. � at’s where it belonged from the start.

But we can’t blame the county from moving ahead on its own. A� er all, the Legislature had a chance to do this at the start of the year, but ducked its responsibility. Sadly, that’s not surprising, given that most lawmakers will be up for election this fall and don’t want to be on the record as voting for more taxes.

Unfortunately, people here will take the hit for the Leg-islature’s inaction. Bus service will be reduced, some routes will be discontinued, more buses will be standing room only during rush hours and some people – bus drivers – likely will work fewer hours or, worse, lose their jobs.

Metro ridership has been climbing over the past few years, but obviously most voters aren’t bus riders. And for them, why pay more taxes when they’ve already got comfort-able seats and a great sound system in their car to see them through what likely will be a more congested commute.

Lessons learned at Oso disaster

That venerable adage ‘It’s not what you say, it’s how you say it’ came to mind Tuesday as President Barack

Obama departed the Oso � rehouse.It was Obama’s subtle acknowledge-

ment that the emergency response to the deadly mudslide did not get carried out in letter-perfect fashion. Families and neigh-

bors of the deceased and missing encoun-tered frustrations with � rst responders during those � rst days a� er the earth moved.

“Some terri� c les-sons were learned in the midst of very hard times during this process, because almost

uniquely, we had not just coordination between state, local and federal o� cials, but also coordination between volunteers and those o� cials,” Obama said to the crowd at the � rehouse.

“And I know that it required some improvisation and some kinks getting worked out, but it was important for the family members themselves and the com-munity themselves to be hands-on and participate in this process — particularly a community like this one where folks are

hearty and know how to do things, and take great pride in being self-reliant.

“It was important that they weren’t just bystanders in this process, they were involved every step of the way,” he said.

Rep. Elizabeth Scott, R-Monroe might feel validated by his words; she made much the same point a month ago.

She expressed particular pique with the decisions to bar Darrington residents from joining the search for victims and restoring a private road for emergency ve-hicles to access the site – prohibitions the hometown folks promptly ignored and o� cialdom eventually welcomed.

� ose were probably the kind of “kinks getting worked out” that Obama had in mind. � ere would be a time to discuss what didn’t go right and what to do about it, she said.

When that time comes — if Scott picked up any tips from Obama — it will be to make sure what she says gets the attention, rather than how she says it.

BY BRANDON MACZBELLEVUE REPORTER

King County Metro will begin phas-ing in cuts and reductions to nearly 200 bus routes in September following the defeat of Proposition 1 in Tuesday’s spe-cial election, affecting 28 of 35 routes in Bellevue.

Prop 1 was failing by 55 percent as of press time for the Reporter on Wednes-day night with 412,248 ballots counted or 35 percent turnout.

Based on a March revenue forecast the proposed cuts and changes to King County Metro routes changed slightly from 74 to 72 routes lost. That’s roughly 34 percent of the Metro system. The 107 routes proposed to be reduced or changed dropped to 84. Of those reduc-tions, 48 percent will occur during peak transit hours.

“As far as Plan B, it’s still the same as it was before the election,” said Chad Lewis, spokesman for the King County Executive’s Office.

Prop 1 would have allowed for a recently formed King County Trans-portation Benefit District to implement a one-tenth of a cent sales tax and a $60 car-tab fee. Low-income county

residents would get a $20 rebate. Prop 1 was anticipated to generate $130 million in revenue, with 40 percent going to local road and transportation projects. Lewis said there is no current plan to run another ballot measure in the future.

Metro service changes occur three times each year, meaning the first cuts, reductions and route changes will start in September, said Rochelle Ogershok with the King County Department of Transportation. Three more rounds of cuts and changes will occur in February, June and September of 2015.

Ogershok said the staffing cuts that will come with the cuts and reduced service have not yet been determined.

“If you have less service, you have less buses on the street clearly,” she said.

Pine Lake Middle school hosted their HEROpalooza event on Wednesday, April 23, to honor students who have volunteered at least 10 hours toward charities in Sammamish, Issaquah and surrounding communities.

More than 300 students participated in the program. In addition, more than 3,000 volunteer hours were provided. Students volunteered at the Issaquah Food Bank, provided food and warm blankets to Tent City, pulled weeds for Mountain To Sound Greenway, held

bake sales to raise money for Kids With Cancer, collected dog food for the Hu-mane Society and performed many other services for those in need.

For the event, each student prepared a presentation board showing where and how they volunteered including photos. They were displayed in science fair style.

“We are so proud of our students,” said Jill Knutson, a humanities teacher at Pine Lake Middle School. “They are real heroes.”

Bellevue Philharmonic now Lake Washington Symphony OrchestraBY GABRIELLE NOMURASPECIAL TO THE REPORTER

When describing the dramatic comeback of the East-side’s only professional orchestra, Bellevue Philharmonic, Michael Miropolsky doesn't mince words:

“You simply don’t see orchestras come back from the dead; this hardly ever happens in the music business,” said

Miropolsky, an accomplished violinist and conductor. Since 1967, Bellevue Philharmonic had been connecting

audience members with classical repertoire and profes-sional, high-caliber musicianship. Many of the artists also played for Paci� c Northwest Ballet, Seattle Symphony and other regional groups.

When the economic downturn forced Bellevue Philhar-monic to close its doors in 2011, Eastsiders thought they had lost one of their community jewels.

“� e Eastside has its own cultural identity. Every cultural center needs its own orchestra without having to cross over a bridge,” said Martha Garrett, a violinist who got involved

When Bob Ittes was asked to open a Whidbey Island Bank branch in Issaquah, he knew exactly who should help him run it. He’d worked closely with Carmen, Charlotte and Julie for decades. Melodee, Jaclyn and Dorothy were also obvious choices to round out the crew, as each had extensive experience with other banks in Issaquah and the surrounding communities.

What made it an even better fit for the bank and the new staff was the common belief that a successful community bank is based on the support of local people and businesses.

With everyone back together again, this team is poised to become the bank for the eastside of the eastside.

So if you’ve ever had the pleasure of working with any one of these folks, you might want to stop by and get caught up. Because in today’s ever-changing world, a familiar face can make all the difference.

Activities include “Green Gardening” with master gardener Jessica Klein DiStefano from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. where participants will plant a seed in a biodegradable pot and help it grow. � ere also will be face painting, coloring on recycled paper at an activity station, learning how to make organic fertilizer from the lawn and garden, entertainment and a scavenger hunt.

Supplies are limited and are on a � rst-come, � rst-serve basis. Guests who bring in their old cell phones to recycle will receive $2 o� zoo admission.

background, she streamlined the system to make washcloths and bibs from re-cycled material.

Myrtle Strader doesn’t really sew either, but she is a self-proclaimed expert ironer. It’s important that all the seams be pressed down, and with her state-of-the-art iron, which she was happy to demonstrate, she cranks out the work. Once the iron stops moving, it automati-cally lifts itself up off the surface. Who knew?

Elke Lott is also fairly new to the group. She was working on a serger, which finishes the cut edges of the fabric and seams at the same time. They use the

serger on nightgowns, wash cloths, bibs and receiving blankets. She is retired from Farmer’s Insurance after 30 years, and really enjoys helping out with the brigade.

Petty said Lott and Rouse are also ex-cellent knitters, but they mainly knit for their own families.

The basement workshop used to be a home office, Petty said, but the Needle Brigade has worked out of there now for about four years. Others in the group are Pina Mull (whose brother named the group), Judy Kenyon, Grace Elder, Betty Roberson, Lorella Haakenson, Joan Abel and Shirley Small.

Arts RoundupWhat’s happening in the world of art

Village � eatre will present Funny Girl next month and for scenic artist Julia Franz, what's old will be new again. Franz will celebrate her 100th production with Village � eatre, back where she started, so to speak. Her � rst production was also Funny Girl, and was also directed by Steve Tomkins and designed by Bill For-rester, back in the spring of 1994.

At a time when many theatre companies are converting to printed set drops, Franz remains dedicated to keeping the lost art of hand-painted sets, drops and floors alive.

"Hand-painting allows for more control and flexibility in our work," Franz said. "What we do is an art form and with the human hand we can achieve a visual aspect that a computer printout simply can’t.”

Singing the title role of Fanny Brice will be Sarah Rose Davis of Bel-levue. Fanny Brice is Funny Girl; the irrepressible comedienne, Vaudeville star, and one of the most celebrated entertainers of her time. � is semi-autobiographical musical is based on Fanny’s life, career, and stormy rela-tionship with professional gambler and con artist Nick Arnstein.

It includes favorite tunes “Don’t

Rain on My Parade,” “People,” and “You Are Woman, I Am Man,” and is packed with all the glamour and glitz of the Ziegfeld Follies. Village Theatre’s production showcases over 180 costumes and countless scene changes spanning over four decades.

Funny Girl musical will run from May 15 to July 6 in Issaquah. Issaquah tickets ($30 to $65) are on sale now at www.villagetheatre.org/issaquah/tickets.php or at the box o� ce (425-392-2202) from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

In 2009, The Thomas family set out on an endeavor to make pure, simple and handcrafted wines. Every grape is handpicked, every label is hand placed. Each bottle is unique. With each sip of a Slide Ridge Estates wine, you know it was made with hard work and a true passion for the purity of each grape.

Named after the great landslide that overlooks it, and procured as an underdeveloped vineyard, The Thomas Family pioneered innovative approaches of care by blending New and Old world growing techniques. Like the wild Mustang, it is with bold spirit that we proudly bring you handcrafted, homestead wines.

Slide Ridge Estates is located in Manson, WA and is proudly featured at Capco on Gilman Blvd in Issaquah, WA.

Issaquah sophomore Ryan Egland has been part of the attack this season. MICHAEL JARDINE, U.S. Lacrosse Washington

BY JOSH [email protected]

When Issaquah meets Bellevue Friday in a matchup of two of the conference’s top three teams, it is unlikely either will see many similarities.

� e Eagles feature a balanced o� ensive attack, with 10 players having scored a goal and six with double-digit points on the season.

By contrast, coach John Baumann’s Wolverines have relied on a pair of Division I bound seniors in Hank Bethke and Eric Haehl to carry the load o� ensively.

� e duo have combined for nearly half of the team’s scoring output during league play, with Bethke posting a conference best 48 goals in 13 games on the year.

Defensively, the story is also one of contrasting styles. Senior goalkeeper Cole Cansler and the Bellevue defense

have not allowed more than nine goals in a game while building a 12-1 record, with the only loss coming by a single goal in the Northwest Invitational.

� e Wolverines have been even tougher against in-state foes, surrendering only three goals per contest against Washington competition.

“� ey are very strong defensively,” Fortier said of the Wolverines. “I envision a low scoring game.”

For Fortier, the defense is still a work in progress. “We’re de� nitely getting better,” he said, adding commu-

nication on that end of the � eld has been a key for a group with several new starters. “We’re too timid, and there isn’t that quarterback on the defensive end.”

� e Eagles have more than held their own against in-state competition, as no Washington prep squad has scored more than � ve goals in a game.

But Fortier knows games against fellow conference front-runners Bellevue and Mercer Island, as well a potential run through the playo� s, will require a more polished e� ort.

“Everyone is aware of it,” Fortier said of his team’s need to clamp down. “It is just experience, and maturing.”

Issaquah baseball rivalry intensi� ed by father-son tiesBY JOSH [email protected]

Todd Reese remembers the days as a youngster around the Issaquah baseball program, following head coach and father Rob around the old natural grass diamond, idolizing the purple and gold clad varsity team members.

� e memories of the family ties to their KingCo cham-pionships and a trio of state titles are also fond ones for the longtime skipper of the Eagles, along with a pair of assis-tants in Steve Sanelli and Fred Caponigro who have known and coached Todd throughout his youth.

But rather than suiting up for his father and the Eagles as a player, a� er doing so as a bat boy for state championship squads, Todd headed to the other side of Newport Way, to Issaquah’s � ercest rivals on the baseball diamond.

“I played � underbird Little League my whole life, and grew up with these guys,” Todd said of the Bellevue league that feeds Newport High School and draws from the area that borders the Issaquah School District boundary.

Rob said the plan was always for his son to attend New-port and remain with his neighborhood classmates and friends, rather than inherit the pressure of being the coach’s son for the Eagles. But during his childhood, as Rob led Issaquah to state championships in 2000, 2004 and 2007, Todd and the rest of the family were a � xture in the stands and on the � eld.

Rob said one of the most vivid memories of his coaching tenure is the program’s most recent title, when he grabbed a young Todd from over the Safeco Field railing and brought him on the � eld to join the celebration.

“I still watch the video of that one sometimes,” he said,

recalling his own parents in the front row with his wife and Todd. “I will never forget that the rest of my life.”

� e past two-plus years have been anything but easy as a father, with Rob only able to see his son play in the con-

� icted instances when he faces Issaquah. “It’s been really di� cult, not being able to see him and

not having my wife here,” Rob said. “He has such a great group of friends he grew up with.”

Newport coach Brad Files has coached for nearly two de-cades alongside Rob, Sanelli and Caponigro with Lakeside Recovery’s American Legion program during the summer, and as close family friends has known Todd his entire life.

“We’ve been looking forward to having him here, and it has gone by fast,” Files said. “We try to make the most of it every day and enjoy the experience.”

� e decision has worked out well for Todd, and even better for the Knights during his varsity tenure.

He is third on the team in hits and second in RBI.He has been the workhorse of the pitching sta� , throw-

ing a team high 34 innings and a third, and posting a 2.04 earned run average.

Even with the unenviable task of taking on his own fa-ther as the starting pitcher in a Newport win over Issaquah earlier this year, Todd has shined.

“It’s probably the most nervous I’ve ever been,” he said of a 5-4 victory where he started on the mound and delivered the game winning base hit. “It felt good to beat them. But there was no gloating, anything like that.”

� e two met again Wednesday, a� er the Reporter’s dead-line, and could also face o� in the KingCo tournament.

Todd said the respect between he and his dad, developed through baseball, has been one of the most rewarding parts of his growth in a game he has been around for longer than he can remember.

On the day he was born, his father’s Eagles were slated for a non-league game against Kentridge. A� er staying for the birth, Rob headed to the diamond to catch whatever was le� of the early season tilt. Not long a� er, his wife was released from the hospital and came to the � eld, starting a connection on the diamond that has helped shape their lives in the years since.

“I was in my jeans,” Rob recalled, having passed along head coaching duties to Sanelli for the day. “Tami got out of the hospital and brought Todd. He’s been around Is-saquah his whole life.”

CUBACONTINUED FROM PAGE 3

is actually as safe as the U.S. I never felt like I was in any kind of danger when I was there.”

Horne said it’s hard to pinpoint one part of the trip that stood out as her favorite, but she loved learning about the Cuban culture.

“Art and music are so important to the Cuban people, and we saw that everywhere we went – the beautiful mosaic tiles at Casa Fuster, the creative street art all over Havana, the musicians playing ‘Guantanamera’ at every restaurant we ate at…I think what surprised all of us the most was that we all had this idea that everyone in Cuba was going to be really Communist and brainwashed to love Castro, but some of the people that we talked to actually disagreed with some of the government actions and were not afraid to be vocal about it,” Horne said.

Colin MacRae, an Eastlake senior, also noted Cuba’s pas-sion for art and music, explaining how it’s so much more prevalent compared to the U.S. MacRae also said that it was much harder to speak Spanish then he had expected because of Cuban’s thick accents.

“It was just so completely di�erent from what we’ve learned,” MacRae said. “But it de�nitely helped us to learn. It was hard.”

Callahan said she has studied Spanish for �ve years, and was surprised at how well the locals spoke English.

“�eir English was much, much better than my Spanish,” she said.

Horne said the Cuba trip was the �rst time she was able to meet and talk directly with Spanish-speaking locals, us-ing the language skills she has learned in school.

“I think that was a really great experience for all of us,” she said.

Morgan said the trip opened her eyes to stereotypes, and how you never know the truth about something until you try it or see it for yourself.

“I really miss Cuba, and if the embargo is ever li�ed, I will de�nitely go back and see how things change with the U.S. in�uence,” she said.

Egashira said that she hopes her students learned the value of travel and gained an appreciation of other cultures. And most of the students said that they plan to study Spanish in college, with the hopes of studying abroad or traveling.

“A�er taking this trip, I know that I de�nitely want to study abroad in the future, hopefully in a Spanish-speaking country so that I can really immerse myself in the language and learn to speak �uently,” Horne said. “I would tell any-body who has the opportunity to travel to another country for any kind of educational purpose to take the chance and do it. It might just turn out to be one of the best experi-ences of your life.”

with the group in the early 2000s. At the time, she said, local musicians viewed the Philharmonic as “the next big thing.”

From the passion of musicians like Garrett and Miropolsky, and the persistence of dedicated music lovers and commu-nity members, miracles can happen.

Almost three years a�er implosion, the group did indeed “come back from the dead” and with a spi�y new name, Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra.

Led by Miropolsky, artistic director, the musicians handle both performing and administrative responsibili-ties with a new artist-driven model. While this means many long hours of es-sentially volunteer-work for some involved, especially in the initial stages, Miropolsky said the structure is much better �t.

“�e managers know the business from the inside-out,” he said.

�e group gave its inaugural performance this March at Lake Washington High School Performing Arts Center, treating roughly 250 people to the works of Strauss, Alfven, Bizet and

Rimsky-Korsakov. “�e musicians played

with such great energy; that’s what makes the music,” said Miropolsky, who led the group from the podium. “I can’t believe they pulled it o� in only three rehearsals.”

It felt incredible for Gar-rett to sit down on stage with her violin and perform once again for many of the people who had made the original orchestra so beloved. She hopes that the company will only continue to grow, adding additional concerts each year.

To jump-start that goal, the organization will hold a “Symphony of Gardens” fundraiser event from 9-4 p.m. June 29. Attendees will have the opportunity to tour “all-star” gardens in Medina, Clyde Hall, Hunts Point and Kirkland with live music provided by the orchestra. Tickets are available at www.brownpapertickets.com/event/604208.

Garrett said the musicians are overjoyed to be back, and grateful to all who have stepped forward to support the group in some way.

“It’s been overwhelming,” she said. “At our inaugural concert, we were �oating on air.”

Marymoor Park summer concert series schedule released

Issaquah is in the running for up to a $40,000 grant to install a solar demonstration project. The city will compete with Redmond and Puyallup to see how many additional homes and businesses sign up for the com-pany’s Green Power program, which allows PSE electric customers to pay a little more to guarantee some or all of their energy is from clean, renewable sources.

The winner will be crowed the “Greenest Town in Puget Sound.”

Each city has a different goal. Issaquah needs a net increase of 180 participants, Redmond 250 and Puyal-

lup 200. Each city that meets its individual challenge goal will be awarded a $20,000 grant to go toward a solar project in their city. Each city will determine where its project will be located and how it will be implemented.

The city with the highest percentage of new enroll-ments out of available accounts compared to the other cities will be awarded an additional $20,000 to go toward their city’s solar project. The challenge officially ends on Dec. 31.

PSE residential customers can purchase 100 percent green power for approximately $10 to $12 a month based on their actual usage or buy a specific amount, with a minimum purchase of $4 per month for 320 kilowatt hours (kWh). Additional green power can be bought in increments of $2 for 160 kWh. Business customers can also participate at rates specific to their situation.

Community RoundupWhat’s happening in Issaquah and Sammamish

Eastside Fire and Rescue receives pet oxygen mask donations

Eastside Fire and Rescue has received a donation of 15 oxygen mask kits for pets from Invisible Fence Northwest. �e donation is a part of the company’s Project Breathe pro-gram, with the goal of equipping every �re station in the United States and Canada with pet oxygen masks. �ese masks allow �re�ghters to give oxygen to pets who are su�ering from smoke inhalation when they are rescued from �res and can o�en save pets’ lives.

Invisible Fence has donated a total of more than 10,000 pet oxygen masks to �re sta-tions and reports indicate more than 120 pets have been saved by the donated masks so far.

Although the number of pets that die in �res is not an o�cial statistic kept by the U.S. Fire Administration, industry, web sites and sources have cited anywhere from 40,000 to 150,000 pets die in �res each year, most succumbing to smoke inhalation.

“�ese masks truly are blessings for the Issaquah area” said Battalion Chief Dave Mc-Daniel. “We’ve seen residents run back into burning homes to save a pet. It’s understand-able, but extremely dangerous. �ese masks will give residents comfort in knowing we can possibly save their pets if they are su�ering from smoke inhalation.”

�e company has set up a website, www.invisiblefence.com/O2, where people or com-panies can support the e�ort. For more information about the donated oxygen mask kits to EFR, contact Battalion Chief David McDaniel at [email protected]. Contact Danni-elle Collins with Invisible Fence Northwest at [email protected] for information on Project Breathe.

Sammamish makes storm water runo� a community center priority

Large building projects such as the Sammamish Community and Aquatic Center of-tentimes produce negative side e�ects in the storm water runo�. However, as the city of Sammamish prepares to invest $34.5 million in the project, it has stated that a portion of the funds will be used to make the entire site and nearby acreage more absorbent.

�e center will include a vegetated rain roof that will capture moisture and six acres of nearby land will be reforested as part of a drainage easement. In addition, pervious surfaces will absorb rain and water will be conserved on site, allowing for recycled use.

�e city said that the reforestation e�ort will extend to the lower bowl of Sam-mamish Commons, the spot where Wetland No. 61 serves as the headwaters of Ebright Creek. �e trees will aid in holding on to rain before it reaches the ground, and draw-ing in more of the water through their root systems.

ORCA card to test one-day passA new regional transit pass will allow riders to travel by bus, train, streetcar or water

taxi all day for one price. �e Visitor Day Pass is being piloted by Puget Sound transit agencies and will be available for the next six months. One or more days‚Äô worth of passes can be loaded onto a reusable ORCA smart card.

�e regional day pass will cost $9 and will provide unlimited trips when the fare is $4 or less. It will , but local residents also can purchase the day pass anywhere ORCA cards are sold. People who do not have an ORCA card can buy a card for a one-time $5 fee.

�e day pass cannot be used on Washington State Ferries.

EvergreenHealth launches palliative care outpatient practice

Sammamish Stolen plate: A Sammamish resident called police on April 6 reporting his license plate had been stolen within the last week. The victim said that he saw his license plate on his car when he washed it on March 27, and only drove his car on April 3 when he went to din-ner at Chuckaways in Bellevue. He said that everywhere he parked was either in a covered spot or close to en-trances, and doesn’t know his license plate was stolen. No suspect has been located at this time. Dog fight: At approximately 2:20 p.m on April 9., an officer was dispatched to the Knolls Apartments on Inglewood Hill Road due to a pit bull fight occurring in the parking lot. Three dogs were involved in the brawl. The owners were attempting to break it up and were covered in blood. When the officer arrived, there was only one dog on scene. One of the dogs was inside the owner’s home, with the owner refusing to cooperate, and the other had run off during the fight. The coop-erative owner was treated for her bite wounds on the scene, after which the officers helped her look for her dog, a pit bull mix named Doodle. The dog was seen by another officer on NE Inglewood Hill Road, but when the Deputy attempted to get the dog to come to him, it ran into the woods. It is unknown whether the dog has been found. Act your age: A Sammamish citizen reported that a home on 229th Ave N.E. has been the source of a lot of house parties when the parents are away. The week-end of April 12 was no exception, with the neighbor finding beer cans in his yard. An officer arrived on scene, knocked on the door, was rejected by a young man refusing to talk. The other occupants put the blinds down and refused to answer the door. The offi-cer recorded the plates that were at the home and saw a lengthy history with the two young men associated with the home. He attempted to reach the parents, but could not get ahold of them.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the de- livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
