RESIDENT SERIESPROVIDENCE POINT GARDEN CLUB
BY ALICE WARM, GARDEN CLUB PRESIDENT
The Point Garden Club has been a part of Providence Point since 1992 and member-ship is open to all residents who enjoy gardening or who just enjoy the social aspect of our group.
Our first project was the garden area at Town Hall which has now been turned over to the Property Management Office for maintenance and over the years we’ve had other gardening projects in some of the common areas. Now the club primarily concentrates on the hanging planters that are displayed along Providence Point Drive and in front of the South Community Building.
We offer a variety of interesting programs throughout the year, including trips to gardens and nurseries in the area and speakers on various gardening subjects. We also put on a Fall Fashion Show and Luncheon, a Christmas Tea, card parties and luncheons during the year and our biannual Home and Garden Tour, which many of you enjoyed last year and will occur again in July 2011. The last two years we participated in the annual Craft Show at Collin Hall. Many of these activities are fund raising events.
We are a group of over 200 members and the hanging planters are a large expense. We work with Squak Mountain Nursery, who creates them under the watchful eye of Thelma Budlong. The nursery hangs them for us when the weather permits. We cover the cost to have them watered and fertilized every day and watched for any insects which might try to inhabit them. In the fall, Squak Mountain Nursery comes and takes the planters down, cleans and stores the empty planters and gets them ready for planting the next year.
We have 42 planters and this expense is over $8,000, which includes delivery, pick-up, and weekly maintenance. We all are very aware of the beauty of the hanging planters, how they are enjoyed by our residents and how they also increase our property values. Many new residents express how they were so impressed with the planters that they bought a unit here. We will once again this year be providing the planters for all of you to enjoy.
The Point Garden Club members pay dues of only $20.00 a year, as we try to keep them affordable for everyone. We work very hard every year to raise the money for the hanging planters and are finding it increasingly difficult. In the past, we have depended upon donations as well as our fund raising events. These donations have decreased in

the past years and we are asking you, the residents, to help us.
If every unit would just donate a small amount, even just $5.00 or $10.00 to help out, we will be able to continue to sponsor the planters. You may take your donation to the Activities Office and they will take it for us. We also encourage all residents to consider joining the Garden Club. We are a fun group and a wonderful way to make friends in Providence Point.

ARE yOU READy fOR AN EARThqUAkE?
BY PAUL BROGAN, EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN
Shortly after the news releases about the recent mega earth-quake in Chile, the local media had stories about how we, in the Northwest could also experience a similar mega earthquake or larger. The Scientists and Geologists pointed out that just 50 miles off the Pacific Northwest coast is an ‘earthquake hotspot’. This fault has been dormant for more than 300 years, but when it awakens--tomorrow or decades from now--the consequences could be worse than what Chile just experienced.
Brian Atwater, a geologist with U.S. Geological Survey and the University of Washington was quoted as saying that “the Pacific Northwest has a long geological history of doing exactly what happened in Chile.” He went on to say, “It’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN the next one will happen.”
The Juan de Fuca plate is diving beneath the North American plate. At some point centuries of pent-up stress in the Cascade subduc-tion zone will cause the plates to slip. The Experts cannot predict when the earthquake will occur--only that one will happen.
At Providence Point we have been stressing that residents should: Make a Plan, Build a Kit (food, water, and medicines to last for at least 3 days); and Get Involved (increase your networks, meet your neighbors, and increase your ability to recover quickly). You should know your building captain and who has the walkie-talkie radio to call for assistance when telephone service is out. Join CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) classes. Or, if you are a retired medical professional then join our Providence Point medical team. Offer your time, talent, and tools.
What should you do during an Earthquake? DROP, COVER, AND HOLD-ON. Practice in advance. Practicing teaches your muscles the action so that it won’t matter if your thoughts are less than clear. Teach the other people in your life to stay in one spot until the shaking stops. Don’t try to run.
Have you read pages 3 & 4 of the Providence Point phone book? After the shaking stops, get outside the building to your designated building ‘gathering place’ and report to your building captain.
In a major disaster we could easily be totally isolated for days--with the Plateau having over 40,000 people and only nine (9) First Responders on duty at any one given time--we could need to be prepared for at least 3 days… maybe even longer before outside help could be available. Therefore, we as a community should posture ourselves to be prepared. Getting prepared isn’t hard to do or costly, but if you are not prepared you could be very uncomfortable.
Disasters are inevitable ---the outcome is NOT! Most damage from natural disaster can be avoided by making slight changes to the things you already do. Know what risks you face and reduce them. Know what resources you have and increase them. Be your own best resource.

4:15 p.m. Last StopFor more than 25 years, Cutters Bayhouse has served both tourists and locals’ seafood in a casual setting. Italian glass chandeliers plus marble and African mahogany paneling and floors give Cutters more style than most waterfront restaurants. On a clear day you can see forever through eight-foot-high windows framing a view of the city skyline, waterfront and Olympic Mountains. The apple wood grill is the heart of the kitchen and it yields gems such as
golden-edged Alaska Weathervane scallops, king salmon filets, sea bass and Columbia River sturgeon. Asian flavors dominate in some preparations, such as mussels simmered in coconut milk, curry, lemon grass and kaffir lime. The wok-seared whole Dungeness crab arrives with a lip-tingling garlic-black bean-chili sauce. If you're not in the mood for seafood, check out the meat selections. When the kitchen wanders into cattle country, it still does well. A copy of the menu is available in the activity office for viewing. The cost of this trip is $6.00 for transportation. Dinner is at you own expense. Signup Day is May 28. You can sign up in the activities office on or after this date.

GREENWATER RIVER / MEEKER LAKES8:30 a.m. Last Stop
The singular beauty of this Greenwater hike can only be (partially) explained by the photos on the Hiking Bulletin Board. This four mile hike has more than average bumps to negotiate because of the “horsey-set” that use the trail… Two hiking sticks are recom-mended by most Orthopedists. Get the “hang” of them on our nature trails. Bring a plastic bag for the boots and a comfortable pair of shoes for après hike. Hikers bring enough water for a heavy workout and lunch. Cost of transportation will be about $15.00 plus money for an après coffee/ice-cream stop. Hikers are expected to have read and to comply with fitness parameters on the “Hik-ers’ 2010 Information and Recommendations” sheet. Please call Helen Bell if you don’t have one. The sign-up sheet will be on the Hikers’ BB 8 days prior to the hike. Questions? Helen 369-9067 or Claire 427-0588.

10:30 a.m. Last StopOver 75,000 art-lovers from the greater King and Snohomish counties and beyond attend the popular three-day Arts Festival.

This novel moves back and forth between the Soviet Union dur-ing World War II and modern-day America, as Marina, an elderly Russian woman now suffering from Alzherimer's Disease, recalls her youth during the height of the siege of Leningrad. At that time she was a tour guide at the Hermitage, helping to remove the museum’s priceless artworks for safekeeping while facing the cold and starvation associated with the lengthy siege.
The July book will be a book by a young Northwest doctor, Emily R. Transue. The titles of her autobiographical books are 1) on call: a Doctor’s Days and nights in residency, and 2) Patient by Patient; lessons in love, loss, hope, and healing from a Doctor’s Practice.

10:00 a.m. Winthrop BuildingMaintaining balance seems to be important in several aspects of our lives. It is certainly recommended around such things as nutrition, exercise, work, and finances. But it is also significant, as well, when one considers emotional health.
How we balance our fears and anxieties with our dreams and hopes. How we counter negative self-talk with something more positive and uplifting of the spirit.How we carve out time for ourselves without forgetting to have some time with others. And how we navigate the tough spots in the road of life.
The Elderberries group is a great place to voice anything, and everything. Whatever is shared is respectfully heard by those gathered, and is held in confidence. We may not know who is coming, but the meetings always begin at 10am. Their next will
be on Monday, June 28th in the First Floor Social Room of the Winthrop Building in Washington Village at 3941 226th Place SE. All are welcome! We continue to request modest use of fragrances so that our chemically-sensitive neighbors can also attend.

HIKING GROUPWALLACE FALLS – GOLD BAR
8:30 a.m. Last StopThis was David Blattner’s (Hike Leader Extraordinaire) favorite hike. You may understand why… It has a running, jumping river, alongside, much of the way with dappled forest shade, elevation not too high, various alternatives for the intermediate and strong hiker and a different way down, if you like. It is a mostly uphill trail with the usual rocks and roots along the way that must be navigated… including downhill from the top, harder than uphill for most hikers. The various views of the falls are worth-it. And, forgive us God for a cheeky observation: but we’ve never hit bad weather on this hike. It will seem new to many since we haven’t taken it for a few years.
The usual recommendations apply: two sticks, lunch and extra water, etc. on the “Hikers’ 2010 Information and Recommendations” sheet. Sign-up sheet will be on the BB as of June 18. Questions? Helen 369-9067 or Claire 427-0588.

LIBRARy NEWSThe annual Book Sale will be held during the first weekend of June, on June 4, 5, and 6. Shirley Hilgeman and her helpers have been very busy getting items ready for the sale! It is always a fun event, and it raises funds for supplies for our own Providence Point Library. I hope you'll be at the Sale!
On another subject, there are going to be major changes in our Traveling Library Service from the King County Library System. Some of you may have seen the notices about this change that were left with us at the end of April and during May. The first part is that the Traveling Library will ONLY deliver books here ONCE A MONTH, on the third Wednesday of each month. The second part will be an even greater adjustment: the materials that are not picked up during the hour they are here will NOT BE LEFT for our residents to pick up afterwards. Arrangements may be made on a one-time basis for pick-up by someone else, but more lengthy arrangements for later pickup would be for those who are shutins and can not get to one of the Library branches, such as those in Issaquah and Sammamish.
I went to the Library headquarters and met with the manager for the Traveling Library and Outreach, Darth Nielson, to try to understand why this change is being made. There seems to be a change in philosophy to emphasize the "Outreach" part of their mission. Instead of providing a special service for all seniors in residential communities, KCLS wants to provide this special service only for those who can not reach a Library branch on their own. If there is a medical reason or another hardship that prevents a person
PROVIDENCE POINT DOES NOT ENDORSE ANY BUSINESS OR ENTERPRISES INCLUDING THOSE WHICH MIGHT ADVERTISE IN THIS PUBLICATION. 1�
from going to a branch, then the Outreach branch need to know about it and may be willing to leave materials here at Providence Point. The Library Outreach service now also sends a truck or bookmobile to day cares or other places that serve children who would not get to a Library branch otherwise, and the King County Library System has recently expanded its services to serve all of Renton, which was previously served by a separate library system. I was told that the Outreach service must now become more "ef-ficient," particularly with these additional routes. They also hope that this change will introduce some of our "independent" seniors to the local branch libraries, where they can find other programs and services as well.
I am very disappointed to see this change in our service from the King County Library System. If you have questions or comments about it, I suggest you call the King County Library System Service Center, 425-369-3200, and ask for the Outreach Department.

PLANT SELECTION AD-hOC COMMITTEE REPORT
BY HELEN BELL, CHAIRMAN
Plants that do badly here are often in the wrong place… in sun most of the day and/or don’t get enough water during drought periods. So far it has been a good weather year, both for water and temperature for our plants. Spring bloom has been beautiful and the plants are flourishing.
In the ten years I have been a resident I have seen several drought years during which our Sammamish Water District mandates turn-ing off the lawn watering and limiting all irrigation through higher water prices. Turning “down” the water leaves our plants “high and dry” during the summer months when they need supplemental watering. This is one reason your Umbrella Grounds Committee has appointed an Ad-hoc Committee to formulate a list of plants that will literally fit our varied landscapes (“right plant – right place”), if they are sited according to projected available moisture. The list includes mostly woody plants that are already here with a shorter list of some basic herbaceous perennials.
The Plant Selection Ad-hoc Committee has voted for consideration by the Grounds Committee a list of pest resistant plants which in most cases depends upon their summer drought resistance. The list is largely based upon what already grows well at Providence Point. The Grounds Committee will vote on a finalized version of the Plant Selection Ad-hoc Committee suggestions, and that version will go to the Umbrella Board for their approval to be incorporated in Policy Resolution No. 13, “Landscape Manage-ment Plan”.
