With the holiday season here and winter fast approaching, one of the things people can do to beat the cold is put on a thick winter coat.
But not everyone can get a hold of one in a time of need. To address this issue, the Redmond Fire� ghters Be-nevolent Fund and International As-sociation of Fire Fighters (IAFF) Local 2829 — the union for the Redmond Fire Department (RFD) — teamed up to provide coats for students at Albert Einstein Elementary School in Redmond.
Using money from the benevo-lent fund — which bene� ts people in the local community, especially
those facing personal tragedy — the � re� ghters purchased enough coats to keep more than 60 Einstein students warm. In addition, principal Karen Belshaw said extra coats were even purchased for some of the students’ older and younger siblings who are not at Einstein.
“I have not seen a coat drive like this,” she said about the scale of it.
Belshaw said in addition to the drive, the school receives support from both the RFD and Redmond Police Department as a number of � re� ghters and o� cers will visit the school as lunch buddies and sit and eat with the students.
“We have a fabulous relationship with them,” she said.
DONATING MORE THAN JUST COATS� e drive was part of Operation
Warm, a nonpro� t whose mission is to provide warm winter clothing for children who need it. According to the organization’s website, “families strug-gling to survive prioritize food, heat, and rent above winter clothing result-ing in frequent absenteeism from school.” � e website continues, stating that this leads to forgone learning and missed opportunities for socialization, play and balanced nutrition provided through the Federal Free and Reduced Meal Program.
Dawn DeLoach, secretary of the benevolent fund, said they ended up participating in Operation Warm a� er � re� ghter Mike Navarro learned

Since a group of homeowners from Trilogy on Redmond Ridge � led a mass-action lawsuit against Shea Homes, Inc., the California-based homebuilder has been working with some of the homeowners to address their repair issues.
According to a press release issued by Shea, more than 700 of the 1,500 homes in the com-munity have responded to the homebuilder’s o� er to have their homes inspected and � xed — or receive a cash settlement for construction issues.
As previously reported,
some of those issues include water intrusion and rot damage caused by a lack of exterior water-proo� ng components.
“We are pleased by the positive response we have gotten from homeown-ers at Redmond Ridge who love their homes and community and want us to address issues, rather than join a lawsuit by plainti� s,” said Robb Pigg, vice president of opera-tions for Shea.
� e press release goes on to state that the com-pany has already complet-ed more than 400 home inspections and made o� ers or repairs to many of the inspected homes.

Lehtinen is scheduled for case setting on Dec. 3STAFF REPORT
Eric Emil Lehtinen, a Redmond man who is accused of injecting his son with heroin, had his Nov. 17 case-setting hearing continued to Dec. 3.
King County Superior Court documents include a letter from Lehtinen to the judge stating that he feels his attorney “has failed to handle this case in a professional and e� ective manner” as required by
Washington’s Rules of Pro-fessional Conduct. He asks that his case be transferred from the Society of Coun-sel Representing Accused Persons (SCRAP) to the Public Defender Associa-tion.
Lehtinen pleaded not guilty to the charge of � rst-degree attempted murder at his arraignment on Oct. 10, 2013 at the King County Courthouse.
Lehtinen’s son, who was 4 at the time of the Sept. 24, 2013 incident, was released from Seattle Children’s Hospital in October 2013.
� e man remains in the King County Jail in Seattle with bail set at $3 million. If convicted, he could face at least 15 years in prison.

Gotta Dance in Red-mond will open its door to the community on Dec. 6.
But rather than having
people come together to dance, the studio will be welcoming people inside for community service projects to give back to those less fortunate.
This will be the 15th year for the Giving from
the Heart event, which was started by Gayle Leyde in her garage.
The Sammamish resident — who is also the manager at Gotta Dance — got the idea after volunteering in
one of her daughters’ classes at Margaret Mead Elementary School as an art-start mom. She said when the kids discussed the holidays in terms of what they meant to them, many kids discussed what gifts they hoped to receive and other thoughts along those lines.
Sometimes, Leyde said, when kids are raised in more affluent communi-ties, they don’t always think about others who may not have as much as them.
Leyde said she started Giving from the Heart for her four daughters to teach them the im-portance of giving and supporting those less fortunate.
“Truthfully, that’s what the holidays should be about,” she said.
Although it began as a small service proj-ect in Leyde’s garage, Giving from the Heart has grown over the last decade and a half and is now its own nonprofit organization and all four of Leyde’s daughters sit on its board.
Through the organi-zation’s annual holiday event, Leyde said they have worked to collect 200-300 boxes of donated items each year. These items range from toys to clothes to gift cards.
“It’s huge,” she said. “It’s overwhelming that it started in our garage. It’s
amazing.”Leyde said they always
donate to Hope Place, a shelter in Seattle asso-ciated with the Seattle Union Gospel Mission. The shelter also offers a 12-18-month rehabilita-tion/treatment program with services including occupational therapy, family and parental counseling and life-skills training. Leyde said she chose Hope Place and has always chosen them because she knows they will use every part of the donations they receive.
In addition, she said they usually choose an-other cause to donate to. This year’s cause is sup-porting those in central Washington who were affected by the wildfires during the summer.
“We try pick some-thing unique each year,” Leyde said.
At the Giving from the Heart events, she said they usually start out by sorting donations into categories such as clothes, toys, blankets and more. Things are then boxed accordingly. Attendees also work to put together stockings for Hope Place. Stock-ing items include school supplies, toys, flashlights, small first-aid kits and more. Kids from the Gotta Dance community and beyond usually put together these stockings and Leyde said it gets them thinking about
what the recipients would be excited to receive.
Attendees also make fleece blankets and scarves for the homeless, which are distributed to the various Tent Cities in the area.
Leyde also takes the time each year to give a talk.
“I help them under-stand there is a huge community in need,” she said, adding that her favorite part of these events is when kids have the revelation that there are those in the com-munity who are not as fortunate as them and then realize how good it can feel to give back.
Those attending the Giving from the Heart event, which is open to the entire community, can also give monetary donations to benefit each of these causes as well as the organization’s Hayley Jenson Scholarship. The latter provides dance scholarships for students who might not be able to afford lessons otherwise. Leyde said the scholar-ship was named in honor of one of her daughters’ friends who was a dance teacher and died at 18. She added that the orga-nization also holds dance events throughout the year to raise money for the scholarship fund.
Gotta Dance is located at 17945 N.E. 65th St., Suite 100 in Redmond.

about the organization and thought it was something they could do to bene� t the community.
She said they spent about $3,500 from the benevolent fund to purchase the coats, which were distributed last Friday.
About 20 � re� ghters from RFD — most of whom had volunteered their time on their day o� — went to Einstein that morning to help the students pick up their coats.
“� ey put in their time,” said Redmond Fire Chief Tommy Smith.
He said this was the � rst time they had participated in Operation Warm, but RFD employees have given back to the community in other ways such as donating turkeys to the homeless and holding pan-cake breakfasts to raise money for the benevolent fund.
“� is is awesome,” Smith said about the coat drive.
EXCITED FOR WINTERDeLoach agreed, saying the best
part of the event was seeing how happy the kids were.
“It was great because you get to see them smiling,” DeLoach said about distributing the coats.
And there were a lot of smiles in the Einstein commons as the youngsters � led in to pick out their coats.
“It was kind of cool,” said third-grader Anthony Anaziz.
� e 8-year-old said he is excited about receiving his coat and wear-ing it in the cold weather. Anthony said he considered a green coat, but ended up going for gray and orange
— his favorite colors.While some students like An-
thony entered the room and knew, more or less, which color coat they wanted, others deliberated on their color choices. And when it came to the students who were unde-cided on color, the � re� ghters in attendance were more than willing
to o� er their opinions. A few — including Chief Smith — could be overheard telling students to pick a certain colored coat based on their favorite sports teams. And not everyone was a Seahawks fan, so there was also some good-natured ribbing among the � re� ghters and students alike.
� e students had been � tted for the coats earlier in October so the � re� ghters would know how many of each size to order.
“It was awesome when they came to � t the coats,” Belshaw said about how excited everyone was during the process.
Despite that excitement, she
said there was some hesitation among students who didn’t realize they were only being � tted for size and the coats they were trying on weren’t going to be theirs to keep at that moment. � at hesitation came from the students not liking the color of the sizing coats, Belshaw said with a laugh.
Because the students weren’t able to take the coats home during the sizing session, some had not real-ized that they would be able to take their coats home on Friday.
“I wish we could take them home today,” one student said a� er he tried on the coat of his choice. When he was told they would be able to take their coats home that a� ernoon, he became excited: “Oh yay!”
SUPPORTING THE STUDENTSBelshaw said Operation Warm is
just one event they have at Ein-stein to support families in need. Another event they held this year was Operation School Bell, which gave students an opportunity to go on a back-to-school shopping spree before the school year began. Belshaw said they worked to pick students and families for Opera-tion Warm who did not participate in the earlier event, that way more could bene� t.
Together the two events have supported about 225 families, Belshaw told the Reporter. In ad-dition, Einstein has a Pantry Packs program that provides students with food over the weekend, bringing the total to about 275 families sup-ported by various services.

November is National Family Caregivers Month
As a Washington State Council on Aging member, I send this letter because November is National Family Caregivers Month. Each year, more of us are caring for a loved one with a chronic condition, disability or simply the frailties of old age.
More than 850,000 Washington citizens are unpaid family caregivers, providing 80 percent of the services that allow family
members to remain at home as long as pos-sible. Recent state agency data reports the uncompensated caregiving is estimated to be valued at $10.6 billion. Caregiving is a very human concern and a financial one, as well. These unpaid caregivers lose about $300,000 in salary and benefits in their lifetime having minimal financial resources to begin with.
Washington state has a Family Caregiver Support Program (FCSP), but it currently only serves less than 1 percent of the 850,000 family caregivers in our state. Recent
research findings report some good news, though: the FCSP improves outcomes for caregivers — 84 percent of the participants showed significant improvements and were slower to transition to more costly Medicaid services.
Serving more family caregivers would be a great investment for our state. Our legislators and the governor should support expansion of FCSP. These caregivers need our support.Dr. Cheryl Townsend Winter, Bellevue

GUEST COLUMN
COURTESY OF THE LAKE WASHINGTON SCHOOLS FOUNDATION
With more than 26,000 students and numerous honors and awards, the Lake Washington School District (LWSD) is one of the largest and most successful school districts in Washington. Part of this success is due to financial support from the community through Lake Washing-ton Schools Foundation. Since 2005, the founda-tion has awarded the district nearly $2 million to support district-wide initiatives and pro-vide classroom tools to help all students suc-ceed. Foundation Board President Minerva Butler, along with the foundation’s board of trustees thanks the community for their donations and involvement in their schools.
The foundation’s board of trustees in-cludes President Minerva Butler, Vice Presi-dent Sarah Stone, Treasurer David Bies, Sec-retary Valerie Horvath, Glen Campbell, Dan Davidson, Jay Goldstein, Peg Hunt, Matt Isenhower, Shelley Kloba, Nicole MacKenzie and Kathleen Reynolds. Ex-official members include District Superintendent Dr. Traci Pierce and Colette Ulloa.
Almost 10 years ago, in March 2005, former LWSD Superintendent Dr. Don Saul brought together a small group of communi-ty members who believed in the importance of public education. This group envisioned a partnership between parents, businesses, community members and the school district.
Their goal was to raise money to help all students succeed.
Dr. Saul was inspired to organize a foun-dation after noticing the value that schools foundations were providing to neighboring school districts. Schools foundations play an important role in raising awareness of districts’ needs and provide a way for the community to engage with and provide extra funding to its schools.
“Lake Washington Schools Foundation is a key partner for the school district,” Pierce said. “They help us to build pathways for student success by funding programs that would not be possible without their sup-
port.”The founding members became the
foundation’s first board of trustees, many of whom are still active as either advisory council or board members. Last spring, founding member Terri Blier was hon-ored with the foundation’s first Education Champion’s award for her dedication to Lake Washington students. Blier stepped down in June after serving on the board for more than nine years, first as a member and then for two years as board president.
“I’m proud that despite challenges over the years, the foundation has endured and is fulfilling its founders’ original goal of equalizing the economic disparity within our district,” Blier said. “While, there are schools that can raise many thousands of dollars for their students, there are others that can barely raise a fraction of that. The founda-tion is building a stronger community by helping all children succeed.”
Tracy Hoien played a key role in the foundation’s success, serving as a found-ing trustee, board president and eventually executive director. “The foundation provides the vehicle for community members to work collaboratively to raise money and provide programs that enrich our students’ educa-tion, beyond the state’s funding of basic education,” Hoien said. “It’s for the kids.”
Launching the foundation took some cash. The foundation’s first fundraising initiative, the Founder’s Circle, provided critical fund-ing to launch the organization into its sec-ond and third years. About 105 individuals and organizations donated at least $1,000 to this cause, raising more than $120,000. For a complete list of Founders Circle members, visit www.lwsf.org/founders.
The foundation’s annual Legacy for Learn-ing fundraising luncheon is currently its central fundraising campaign. Held for many years at Juanita High School, the event regu-larly raises well over $200,000.
The foundation invites the community to attend its 2015 luncheon, scheduled for April

29, at which it will celebrate 10 years of investing in students and schools. There are opportunities for busi-nesses and organizations to sponsor the event.During the past 10 years, the foundation has funded a variety of school needs. It has helped children attend summer school, supported the LINKS mentoring and tutoring program and awarded Reaching for Success classroom grants. It has recently invested in a support program for new teachers and a high school anti-bullying program.Based on school district and community interest, the foundation has made science a special focus. This investment started in 2007 with funding for middle and high school
laboratory equipment. Most recently, the foun-dation helped launch the district’s new STEM-based Signature Programs in all high schools with grants totaling $320,000.In addition to support from the community, other major donors in-clude Microsoft, Waste Management, Sodexo, the Discuren Charitable and Wockner Foundations, local governments and PTSAs. For a complete
list of sponsors, visit www.lwsf.org/investors.The foundation is cur-rently reminding the community that it has a stake in the success of its schools with the theme of its fall fundraising campaign, “Our Kids, Our Future—It’s Up to Us!” Help the foundation reach its fall campaign goal of $25,000 by mak-ing a donation today at www.lwsf.org/donate.
City seeking summer-camp proposals
City of Redmond Parks and Recreation is currently seeking proposals for day-camp programs for the summer of 2015. Programs could include, but are not limited to, the areas of arts, dance, drama, outdoor education, science, special interest, sports and tech-nology.
Redmond’s summer day-camp programs fol-low the Lake Washington School District calendar,
and usually start the last full week of June and run through the end of August.
Camps generally occur in half-day (9 a.m. to noon or 1-4 p.m.) or full-day (9 a.m. to 4 p.m.) sections, with options for before and after care. Camps primarily take place at the Old Redmond School-house Community Center, Anderson Park cabins and several parks within the city limits.
Proposals are currently being accepted from new and existing contractors at www.redmond.gov/Sum merCampRFPs.
To be considered for the summer of 2015, all pro-posals must be submitted by 3 p.m. Jan. 5, 2015.
• The City of Redmond is also looking for citizen volunteers to fill a vacancy on its Civil Service Com-mission.
The Civil Service Com-mission is responsible for the hiring and promo-tional examinations for all regular status positions in the police and fire depart-ments. In addition, it acts as an appeal board for grievances.
Interested residents, who have lived within Redmond city limits for a minimum of three years and are U.S. citizens, should contact the mayor’s office at (425) 556-2101 or download the application form at www.redmond.gov/government/board scommissions.

More than half a million people in the Western Washington region go hungry every year. For more than a decade, QFC and you—our customers—have worked hard to reduce that number. Since 2001, our Bringing Hope to the Table campaign has put more than 4 million meals on the tables of hungry families in the Northwest. This year, our goal is to provide a meal for 300,000 hungry people in our community. From now through December 28, Food Lifeline and QFC are teaming up to give the community more opportunities to stock food bank shelves. Here’s how you can help at your local QFC store:
• Purchase a $10 pre-made bag filled with nutritious, protein-packed, food-bank approved products at any QFC location. Bag contents include peanut butter, steel-cut oats and more.
• Make a $1 or $5 cash donation when you check out.
• Drop your change in the coin boxes located at the register.
• Look for special tags throughout the store marking food-bank recommended items. Purchase one or more and drop them in designated bins at the front of every store.
• Purchase participating Kendall Jackson wines. For every bottle sold, Kendall Jackson will donate 50 cents to Bringing Hope to the Table campaign.
• Purchase any Full Sail product. The Hood River brewery will donate $1 for every 12 bottles sold to the Bringing Hope to the Table campaign.
• Purchase participating Bailey’s product. For every case sold, Bailey’s will donate $6 to the Bringing Hope to the Table campaign.
Join us in reaching our goal of delivering 300,000 meals to hungry area families this year. For more details, visit www.qfc.com/community. Thanks for all you do to help the fight against hunger during the holiday season and beyond.

“Although Shea pro-fesses to be working with over 600 homeowners, that is impossible because we represent nearly 1,000 of the 1,500 homes there, and we have seen practi-cally 100 rejected Shea of-fers from our clients,” said Dave von Beck of Levy–von Beck & Associates, one of the Seattle-based law firms representing the plaintiffs.
Tom Loeser of Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, the second law firm in Seattle representing the homeowners, said they filed an amended mass-action suit on Monday representing 964 homes. There are 1,521 homes to-tal at Trilogy. As a result, Loeser said at the most, Shea would be working with 556 homes in the community.
The Shea press release states that the company expected the filing on Monday, but continues to state that it is making tremendous progress in addressing homeowner issues and believes the plaintiffs’ attorneys’ al-legations and demands are “misleading, intentionally inflammatory and un-necessary.”
“We are actively ad-dressing homeowner issues,” said Pigg. “(On
Monday) the attorneys’ filing is unfair to Red-mond Ridge residents because we believe that it makes misleading ac-cusations intended to scare homeowners, not help them…As soon as Shea addresses issues, the plaintiffs’ attorneys raise new ones to sue over. We are proud of our homes at Redmond Ridge and will address any real issues because we want happy homeowners.”
He said they are en-couraging homeowners to speak with others in the community who have decided on the repair and settlement path “over liti-gation that may take years to settle and may not be successful.”
“We believe the best road to resolving issues is one-on-one meetings with homeowners at their home where we can answer their questions and respond to their con-cerns,” Pigg said, adding, “Shea would rather have homeowners satisfied and pleased with our repair/settlement program than forced to participate in a lawsuit that could drag on for years —and possibly result in no repairs to their home and no settle-ment.”
Shea said residents who would like to have their
homes evaluated for issues can contact the company directly by calling (866) 535-9959 or emailing cus [email protected].
While Shea has been offering to address the homeowners’ issues, Loeser said the offers they have seen from the company have not been adequate to cover the damages. In addition, he said Shea is aware of many problems homeowners are and could be facing. However, the homeowners may not be aware as some of the issues may not have cropped up yet. Loeser said these unknown mat-ters would not be added to the homeowners’ total settlements, so they would not be covered in the future.
“(Homeowners) may be losing the ability to get their full damages (cov-ered),” he said.
Pigg assured that the amount homeowners would be receiving would be sufficient.
“We are not at liberty to provide the figures, but we are addressing all of their issues by either re-pairing the items at issue or providing an agreed upon cash payment, at the owner’s choice,” he said.
In addition to inad-equate settlements, both Loeser and von Beck said Shea is not giving home-owners enough time to make their decisions — only a few days.
“Shea is pressuring these homeowners to quickly accept their of-fers,” von Beck said.
in the industry and it is a pleasure being part of the great team here in Redmond. I am also very excited to live in the greater Seattle area and being part of the larger community.”
Lange’s deep expertise in homebuilding and real estate development spans 25 years and includes serving as vice president of operations for Pulte Homes in Las Vegas, and executive vice president and CFO of Lyle An-derson Companies in Arizona. Lange is a certi-fied public accountant with a master’s degree from DePaul University and a bachelor’s degree from University of Notre Dame.
Clark adds, “Finding the right culture fit is one of the most important factors in finding the right person to fill the CFO role. I am confident we found that person in Rich. He brings a strong track record of integrity and professionalism to the position.”
Lange has served on
various community boards including Habi-tat for Humanity, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Junior Achievement.
He is a father of two college sons and will re-locate from San Francisco with his wife, Michele, to join Aegis’ home office staff in Redmond.

Rathan Mahendran is a ma-jor Seattle Seahawks fan, so it’s only fitting that he ended up on the CenturyLink Field prior to last Sunday’s matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
Like Seahawks players, the Redmond Middle School (RMS) sixth-grade math and science teacher, earned his spot on the gridiron by being a standout coach, mentor and role model for his students.
Thanks to a nomina-tion from former student Christine Ito, Mahendran scored a Symetra Hero in the Classroom award at a Nov. 18 surprise school assembly, which featured an appearance by Seahawks defensive end Cliff Avril. He won $1,000 for RMS, a customized Seahawks jersey, tickets for the game and a trip onto the field.
“It was a tremendous thrill
to be on the field to watch warmups, meet players and even try on a Seahawks Super Bowl championship ring,” said Mahendran, who is a sea-son-ticket holder. “I’m lucky to work with a lot of amazing teachers, many of whom I have looked to for ideas and have helped me become the teacher I am today, so it was a complete surprise to receive this honor.”
Mahendran is in his third teaching at RMS and he previously taught fifth- and sixth-graders for nine years at Norman Rockwell Elementa-ry. Along with his classroom duties, he currently coaches cross country, basketball and track.
His teaching game plan is to engage students with his lessons and make learning fun for them.
“My goal is to have students see the value of science and math concepts and how they are useful in their life, and not just as something they have to learn at school,” he said.
“I want to continue to inspire students to do their best.”
On the playing field, Ito — a 22-year-old graduate
student in the University of Washington’s Master’s in Teaching program — said Mahendran gets students excited about sports.
“He is competitive and pushes the students, but always makes light of the situation and knows when to balance the winning mentality with having a positive attitude and trying your best — no matter what,” Ito said. “Mr. Mahendran’s involvement in extracurriculars at school gives him the opportunity to make long-lasting connec-tions with students in every grade.”
Mahendran’s creativity, dedication and love for teach-ing resonated with Ito, and she aspires to have the same impact on students when she becomes a teacher.
The Hero in the Classroom remains a mentor to Ito and he invited her to tutor one of his math students about five years ago. Ito still tutors the student, who is now a junior in high school.
“His continuous sup-port and opportunities have pushed me to try new things and reach my highest poten-tial,” Ito said.

It’s November and we al-ready have shorter days and colder weather. Don’t fret! � is doesn’t mean we have to go inside under the blankets and forget about activity and the outdoors. Not here in Redmond.

Homeward Pet Adoption Center to hold Holiday Pet Food Drive
Homeward Pet Adoption Center will hold its Holiday Pet Food Drive today through Dec. 31.
� e nonpro� t, no-kill animal shelter is collecting pet food donations to help feed homeless animals in the community. People can drop o� their dog or cat food donations at Home-ward Pet Adoption Center (13132 N.E. 177th Place, Woodinville) or in Red-mond at Mud Bay (8867 161st Ave. N.E.), Pet Pros (15946 Redmond Way) and Petco (7215 170th Ave. N.E.).
All donations will be distributed to those in need through food banks in Woodinville, Bothell, Maltby, Monroe, Mill Creek and Kirkland and through local outreach programs.
‘Pound for Pound Challenge’ supplies food for local animal shelters
Pet lovers o� en want to share the holiday with their dogs and cats, so they stock up on healthy food and treats. � is year, local pet parents have the opportu-
nity to provide healthy food for local shelter animals at the same time, at no cost.
For the entire month of November, any Nature’s Variety dog or cat food purchased at an All � e Best Pet Care store will be matched, pound for pound, with a food donation to a local shelter. Additionally, those who purchase Na-
ture’s Variety food to donate to a shelter will get their gi� matched, pound for pound, essentially doubling their donation. All � e Best Pet Care has a Redmond store at 17875 Redmond Way.
� e food recipients will include Old Dog Haven, Cat Tales, Motley Zoo, Homeward Pet and PUPs.
“Last year, our ‘Pound for
Pound Challenge’ resulted in donations of more than 15,000 pounds of high-quality dog and cat food to our local shelters,” noted Susan Moss, owner of All
� e Best Pet Care.Jenny Martin from
Nature’s Variety said, “I’m really excited about this opportunity to make a huge impact on needy dogs and
cats in our community. To-gether, we will provide the high-quality food shelter pets need to get o� to a bet-ter start.”

When most of us wake up in the morning, the � rst thing we reach for is a cup of quick-brewed hot co� ee. Running between work, home and a� er-school activities, it seems like we can’t get through the day without on-the-go meals and several more cups of co� ee.
Bianca Szyperski, a busy mother of four, realized that she desperately needed to change this routine.
“I was always driving around and ended up at a co� ee shop. I’d go in and inevitably also come out with a pastry. I was really struggling to � nd healthy foods,” she said.
Szyperski and co-founder Mala Raman hoped to solve this everyday battle, and in 2013 opened Jujubeet’s � agship store in Bellevue. A juice bar,
Jujubeet o� ers healthy choices for an on-the-go clientele.
“We wanted to open a store that no matter what you chose, it was going to be good for you — not processed,” Szyperski said.
Jujubeet expanded across Lake Washington to open near University Village a year later. But many of the clientele that they were serving lived on the Eastside, and Szyperski and Raman wanted to bring their menu closer to customers. A growing � tness community in Redmond, along with the city’s growth helped make the decision to open Jujubeet’s newest store in Redmond Town Center.
“� is is the � rst time we’ve had a store in a mall-like set-ting, but there’s lots of foot traf-� c, which is really what we’re targeting,” Raman said.
Jujubeet makes a fresh start at Redmond Town Center

Jujubeet employs about 30 people across their three locations, including an on-staff dietician who offers advice on how to create nutritional recipes while avoiding face-scrunching flavors and textures that “all-natural” diets tend to create.
Take, for example, Jujebeet’s “artisan” juices. “Happy Greens,” “Carrot Zinger” and “Just Beet It!” pack a nutritional punch, the store owners say, without tasting like the bottom of the vegetable drawer. “Carrot Zinger” includes carrot juice, green apples, ginger and lemon, but the spiciness of the ginger is really all that you taste, with subtle notes of lemon and apple. The carrot is almost un-noticeable, making it a hit with people who other-wise might not have tried it because of the reputa-tion of juice cleanse-style drinks.
Jujubeet also offers a full range of salads, wraps, snacks and sweets.
For those with a sweet tooth, Jujubeet offers tasty treats like cinnamon truffles, raspberry-cashew
tortes and chocolate pots, all costing around five dollars. But even these treats offer health benefits, Szyperski notes, explaining that cinnamon is loaded with antioxi-
dants and has been shown to help with attention and focus issues like Atten-tion Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
Customers Bettina and John Clowry are
friends of Szyperski, and believe that a juice bar like Jujubeet is a more cost effective way to make healthy choices through-out the day. Juices cost between $7.95 and $9.95
and smoothies run be-tween $7.95 and $10.95.
“It’s awesome, so much better than just grabbing a cup of coffee in the middle of the day,” Bet-tina Clowry said.
“We’ve tried to do juice cleanses at home,” her husband, John said. “You buy the juicer and have all the intentions of using it, but you never do. And by the time you buy all of the fresh fruits and vegetables in addition to the juicer, it’s no longer cost effec-tive.”
Jujubeet also offers three different 10-day wellness challenges, cost-ing about $350, which include a three-day juice cleanse, a yoga package and a hydrotherapy ses-sion at a spa. Additional-ly, Jujubeet provides email support with recipes and inspirational information to keep clients motivated throughout the wellness challenge.
Jujubeet’s mission statement, in part reads, “We believe in seizing the moment — it only takes a moment to treat your body right; it only takes a moment to make a fresh start.”

SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
More kids are going to have a ride to Boys and Girls Club events thanks to the dona-tion of a surplus van from the King County Metro Vanpool Program.
Metropolitan King County Council member Kathy Lambert, who represents District 3 in northeast King County, presented the keys of the “retired” van to Zach Wenman, club director of the Redmond/Sammamish Branch of the Boys and Girls Clubs of King County.
“I was very excited to present a van to the Boys and Girls Club Redmond/Sam-mamish Branch as it’s a very valuable part of many family’s lives on the Plateau.” said Lambert. “I know the donated
van they received will be put to good use transporting kids to the many programs they o� er. � ey are so excited to have a retired van to help meet their many transporta-tion needs.”
“Our Boys and Girls Clubs vans do more than give kids rides; they help to keep kids safe. � e vans are transporta-tion from the local middle school to our Teen Center and during school breaks they are used on � eld trips all around the Puget Sound,” said Wenman. “By o� ering these services, our vans are helping us to ful� ll our mission of providing a positive place for youth in our communities.”
Earlier this year, the Metropolitan King County Council approved donating three retired vans in each of
the nine council districts to agencies that provide trans-portation assistance to local governments, community programs, senior citizens and young people.
“It was so much fun to deliver the vans and to visit with Zach and some of the students. Zach and his team are doing a great job with the club programming and have such great plans for the future.” Lambert said.
In 1995, the County Coun-cil began donating retired vans to nonpro� t groups for the transportation of low-income clients. � at donation e� ort has grown to include both nonpro� ts and local gov-ernments. � e vans now meet the transportation needs of low-income clients, youth, the elderly and the disabled.

SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
EvergreenHealth and Valley General Hos-pital announced Nov. 19 that their respective Boards of Commissioners have voted to ap-prove the third and � nal phase of an alliance agreement in which Valley General Hospital in Monroe will become part of the Kirkland-based health care system and managed by EvergreenHealth, which has urgent and primary care centers in Redmond.
As part of the agreement, Valley General Hospital will change its name to Evergreen-Health Monroe e� ective March 1, 2015.
Valley General’s Board of Commission-ers rati� ed the agreement on Nov. 13 by a unanimous vote.
EvergreenHealth and Valley General entered into an a� liation agreement in late 2012 in which EvergreenHealth committed to working more closely with Valley General, locating additional physicians in Monroe and sharing some core services.
� is latest agreement results in Valley General being fully integrated with Ever-greenHealth, including changing its name to EvergreenHealth Monroe.
“We are pleased to have this agreement in place, giving us the opportunity to further improve the breadth and quality of the services we can provide our growing popula-tion in east Snohomish County,” said Eric Jensen, CEO of Valley General. “Since our initial agreement in 2012, we’ve made great strides in stabilizing our operations, � nancial performance and delivering on the promise we made to our community when they en-thusiastically approved a small levy increase
to help maintain access to 24/7 emergency and trauma care and inpatient services.”
Valley General was recently recognized by the Washington State Hospital Association with an Achieving Best Care award for its e� orts to decrease patient harm through its participation in the Partnership for Patients initiative, a nationwide collaborative e� ort to reduce the number of hospital-acquired conditions by 40 percent and readmissions by 20 percent by the end of 2014.
EvergreenHealth Monroe will be gov-erned by a newly formed, integrated board structure for the 72-bed Monroe-based hospital while being part of the Evergreen-Health system.
Under the agreement, the two hospitals will create an Alliance Governance Board (AGB), consisting of two Board members from EvergreenHealth, two Commissioners from Snohomish County Public Hospital District #1 (SCPHD #1), and the CEO of EvergreenHealth. � e AGB will govern Val-ley General Hospital’s operations, while the SCPHD #1 Board will retain speci� c powers and responsibility for the public hospital district’s health needs.
“I am proud of our organization’s willing-ness to step up and help create this alliance, which will go a long way in serving those who rely on Valley General Hospital,” said Al DeYoung, chair of EvergreenHealth’s Board of Commissioners.
� e � nancial position of Valley General has improved greatly since the a� liation formed in 2012.
� e 2015 budget projects a positive net operating income of $1 million, thanks in
part to improved management and added tax support approved in 2012.
“I am excited about the potential this af-� liation o� ers, not only to make our hospital and our district stronger, but to provide enhanced medical services in areas that have been underserved in our district,” said Tony Balk, chair of Valley General Board of Com-missioners.
In the two years since the a� liation was created, EvergreenHealth has added new primary care, prenatal obstetrics, orthope-dic surgery and rehabilitation care to the Monroe community. In the late � rst quarter of 2015 a new 34-bed psychiatric hospital, operated by Fairfax Behavior Health, will open at Valley General Hospital in space previously occupied by Valley’s psych unit, which closed three years ago due to � nancial considerations.
“I have been practicing in Monroe since 2007 and I’ve watched this community and its needs evolve,” said Jonathan Borjeson, DO, board-certi� ed general surgeon and president of the medical sta� of Valley Gen-eral. “� is agreement means that residents of our growing community will have access to the highest quality care at the best value. It’s rewarding to be part of that growth and con-tinue to provide quality care in a community hospital setting.”
EvergreenHealth is the ninth largest hos-pital in the Puget Sound region, according to Puget Sound Business Journal, and has been named among the top 5 percent of hospitals in the nation by Healthgrades.
Last spring, U.S. News and World Report named EvergreenHealth the top non-academic medical center in the Puget Sound region.

The International Ballet Theater (IBT), which features Red-mond performers, is dedicating its upcom-ing performances of “The Nutcracker” at the Kirkland Performance Center (KPC) to two of the most influen-tial men in the city’s history. One of them, former Kirkland mayor Bill Woods, will also be performing in the ballet in the role of the grand-father. The other man is Chuck Morgan, who died in 2009 at age 98.
He was simply known as “Mr. Kirkland” and performed the role of the Godfather into his 90s.
Vera Altunina, a cho-reographer at IBT, said the theater’s take on the ballet is based on the traditional version first choreographed in 1892.
“I tried to keep on the original version,” she said. “It’s very warm.”
The performances, set for Dec. 5-7, signal a return to the KPC after six years performing at other venues in the greater Seattle area. A reception will be held for Woods and honor-
ing Morgan from 6-7 p.m. on Dec. 6.
Altunina said the dedication to Morgan and Woods is a gesture of gratitude for the work they did to create the KPC and encourage the arts in the city.
“In the past, Chuck Morgan was the greatest supporter of our com-pany,” she said. “He also tried to help to sustain our presence at KPC.”
She also said they’re paying tribute to the numerous times Mor-gan played the God-father role, which he finally relinquished in 2008.
“He was amazing,” she said. “He was an absolutely amazing person… We wanted to pay tribute to this man who had so much pas-sion and dedication to Kirkland.”
Woods, who was a close friend of Morgan, offered to take up the mantle.
“I said if you are up to the beats and you are able to dance and not afraid of stage, I am more than happy,” she said.
The Reporter was un-able to contact Woods for comment prior to press deadline. The two
men are credited with efforts to raise the $6 million that ultimately allowed the Kirkland Performance Center to open its doors in 1998. Altunina said during IBT’s hiatus from KPC they played at Meyden-bauer Center in Bel-levue, but they always felt like Kirkland was their home.
Now that they are back they are having to alter some aspects in order to accommodate the 85 performers on the smaller stage.
“It’s going to be pretty challenging to get all the dancers on,”
she said. “But I’ve done it before and it works pretty well. We might take out some theatri-cal effects because…the KPC facility is not equipped for it… other than that everything is stayed the same as choreographed.”
The IBT first per-formed “The Nut-cracker” in 2003. More information about the performances can be found at www.kpcenter.org/performances/thenutcracker and www.ibtbellevue.org. For more information and tickets, call (425) 822-7694.

LWSD seeks members for middle school grading advisory committee
When Lake Wash-ington School District (LWSD) changed from a junior high school (grades 7-9) model to a middle school (grades 6-8) model, it focused on making these schools a smooth transition from elemen-tary school to high school. In the course of that transition, staff and administrators realized the middle school report card was not serving students and parents as well as it could.
The district uses two different grading systems in elemen-tary school and in high school. High schools use the traditional letter grades. Those grades are used in determining college admissions and other post-secondary oppor-tunities. Elementary schools use a report card that assigns a number between one and four based on whether the student is not at, approaching, at or exceeds standard. This system, known as standards-based grad-ing, is widely consid-ered “best practice” for accurately reporting student performance as measured against learn-ing standards.
In fall 2015, the dis-trict will transition to

Special to the RepoRteR
The Metropolitan King County Council gave its unanimous approval to the county’s first biennial (two-year) budget, a $9 billion plan that revives the King County Sheriff ’s Domestic Violence Unit and pre-serves King County’s AAA bond rating by not using the county’s cash reserves or tapping the rainy day fund.
“Financial pressures from the Great Recession, ever-expanding population growth and a failing tax structure unable to keep up with citizen demands continue to challenge King County’s ability to deliver even basic services,” said Council Chair Larry Phil-lips. “Given these binding constraints, the council can be proud it reached in a timely manner an agree-ment on a balanced budget maintaining services at critical levels for public health and safety.”
“I’m proud of this budget
because, in spite of shrink-ing revenues, the county continues to help our most vulnerable neighbors,” said Council member Joe McDermott, who chairs the Budget and Fiscal Manage-ment Committee. “Our work will continue in the coming years as we work with partners to find more sustainable ways to provide and fund critical services — including those at our public health clinics.”
The adopted budget is the county’s first biennial budget for all county agen-cies, including those con-tained within the County General Fund. The adopted General Fund Budget was set at 1.5 billion, three-quarters of which is targeted for law, justice and public safety services.
“We have worked very hard on internal rate stabilization, cost contain-ment and organizational reforms,” said Council Vice Chair Jane Hague. “With-out these efforts, we could not have faced the tough
choices and still been able to provide this budget’s level of service in public health, public safety and infrastructure.”
At the start of the budget process, several public health centers were slated for closure. Residents of the communities that depend on the clinics testified at the special meetings held by the council about the importance of the centers. Partnerships and collabora-tion between the county, local jurisdictions and other community agencies helped locate the funding needed to keep the clinic doors open temporarily in Federal Way, White Center and Auburn. The council’s budget also includes fund-ing to help keep North-shore, the last of the clinics on the closure list, open into the biennium.
Potential reductions in transit service were also a concern going into the budget process, with the council committed to reviewing both the levels
of bus service and transit reserves during the devel-opment of the budget. The 2015-2016 budget funds full maintenance of existing bus service, while keeping adequate reserves in transit. In addition, the budget in-creases funding for transit’s alternative services delivery program, which provides transit service other than just a full-size (large) bus on a fixed route.
Public safety within the unincorporated communi-ties where King County is the “local” government will also benefit from the adopted budget. To help in the investigation of those accused of domestic violence, the 2015-2016 Budget includes the resto-ration of the domestic vio-lence unit—two detectives and a community service officer—within the King County Sheriff ’s Office.
“I’m pleased by the prog-ress in this budget. We have added $6 million for rural roads. While this does not solve the road maintenance
and repair issues, it is a step in the right direction. We have also added three dep-uties in the unincorporated areas. This is important as we are the only ‘local gov-ernment’ for these 250,000 unincorporated residents,” said Council member Kathy Lambert, vice chair of the Budget Commit-tee. “These deputies in the Sheriff ’s Domestic Violence Unit will help protect our citizens, allow specialized deputies to focus on these cases and free up other deputies to be back on
patrol. This budget also is balanced and preserves the county’s high credit rating which saves our taxpayers money.”
The ongoing effort to aid young people in the county, especially homeless youth and survivors of sexual abuse, received additional funding in the budget. The budget includes funding for “Project 360” a new innovative, collaborative program providing trauma-specific therapy, case man-agement and prevention
county biennial budget highlights secure families, communities
a grading system in middle school that helps students and their parents understand student progress toward meeting the new state standards. An advisory group of administrators, teachers and others are looking for parents to help shape a balanced, research-based report card that provides middle school students with a transition from elementary school to high school. This report card should help stu-dents understand how they are doing in learn-ing the standards they will need to success in high school.
The district seeks parents and commu-nity members to serve on the Middle School
Grading Advisory Com-mittee for the 2014-15 school year. Those interested in serving are asked to complete the brief online appli-cation indicating their interest and avail-ability by Dec.5. They can also email Linda Stevens, director of as-sessing and reporting, at [email protected]. Volunteer members will be selected based upon geographic location and diverse representation as well availability on the meeting dates.
Meetings will take place at the LWSD Resource Center, 16250 N.E. 74th St. in Red-mond.
The dates and times for the meetings are:

programs for homeless youth.� e adopted budget con-
tinues the County Council’s commitment to eliminating long-standing and persistent inequities and social injus-tices with the establishment of an O� ce of Equity and Social Justice.
“In the county that is named for America’s fore-most Civil Rights leader, I’m encouraged that even during this challenging budget time there continues to be a committed e� ort to meet the needs of the county’s underserved populations, populations that are pre-dominately communities of color,” said Council member Larry Gossett. “We did this through � nding partners to save programs in our public health clinics, ensuring that transit service remains stable for the next two years and with the continued support for programs that help young people who � nd themselves out on the streets of our county.”
King County is the “local” government for the 250,000 county residents who live in unincorporated communi-ties. � e 2015-2016 Budget will include additional funds for the road maintenance division, land-use nuisance
issues and noxious weed control.
“� is is a budget that protects public safety, keeps our health clinics open and restores funding for the Sher-i� ’s domestic violence unit,” said Council member Reagan Dunn. “As with most budgets, there have been many hard choices along the way, but I’m thankful we have been able to work together to maintain the services our residents rely on the most.”
“� e allocation of funds during the budget process was extremely competitive and di� cult, but by work-ing together I am happy that negotiations resulted in critical � nancial support for needed services in South King County,” said Council member Pete von Reich-bauer. “We need to support organizations which provide educational opportunities, retraining and jobs for those most in need living in South King County.”
With the unanimous vote, the 2015-2016 King County Budget will be sent to County Executive Dow Constantine for his signature.
“Our resources may be very limited, but we continue to work together as a council and avoid political gridlock,” said Phillips.

Every � ursday, you can � nd Eastside Baby Cor-ner (EBC) core volunteer, Sandi Dong, in the non-pro� t’s distribution center toy room sorting through half-dressed dolls, miss-matched puzzle pieces and all sorts of unidenti� -able toy parts that have been donated to the organization. She and her fel-low toy volunteers rejoin the parts and pieces, clean them up and get them ready to give out to more than 200 kids each week.
Dong’s dedication is the kind of commitment any vol-unteer-dependent nonpro� t like EBC yearns to have, but her involvement with the or-ganization goes even further. She and her husband Randy have also decided to support
EBC through � nancial con-tributions. Randy, who works for Microso� , and Sandi give to EBC through Randy’s workplace giving program. Microso� matches contribu-
tions so Randy and Sandi are able to double their gi� . Sandi shares that the doubling of their gi� is not the only reason they use the workplace giving program.
� ey also enjoy the ease of it. Each year around this time, Sandi and Randy sit down to discuss their giving plan. Randy gives the names of the organizations they decide to support to his employer, and they don’t have to think about it again for another year. It’s that simple.
� is is the time of year many of us are given the opportunity to participate in workplace giving through our
place of employment. While some people give to a charity of their choosing outside of the workplace giving pro-gram, these programs have some unique bene� ts that you might want to consider as you make your plans for charitable giving. Workplace giving bene� ts both the community and you, the employee in several ways.
First, the community bene� ts from your gi� in that the organization you give to has a better understanding of the funding it will have in the coming year. � is under-standing allows the organiza-tion to plan ahead and make the most of contributions.
� e employee bene� ts in
the obvious way that work-place giving is convenient. You can have your gi� taken from your pay check and can still take advantage of the tax incentives. Another clear bene� t to workplace giving is that if your employer matches funds, you double your con-tribution, helping organiza-tions like EBC do even more to accomplish the mission you believe in.
A less-obvious bene� t to employees that participate in workplace giving is that you get to help direct your orga-nizations’ charitable giving. You get to decide where they will spend their philanthropic dollars.
EBC receives more than $50,000 each year through workplace giving, with almost half coming from matching funds. We are able to use this money to buy the things that we do not or cannot receive through in-kind donations, like car seats, port-a-cribs, formula and diapers. We use our ability to buy these items in bulk, and at a discounted rate to stretch the funds that come in through workplace giving.
For more information, visit EBC (www.babycorner.org) or email [email protected].
Make your charitable gift count with
workplace giving

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.
