Sound Transit is entering its � nal design stage and moving forward with a public art plan for East Link. As the project design edges forward, details such as station mate-rials and landscaping will need to be taken into consideration.
With 14 miles, 10 stations, retaining walls, tunnels and yards of concrete rebar, says Barbara Luecke, Art Program Manager for ST, design is critical to the � nal product.
“[Sound Transit’s] established public art
program is tightly integrated with the de-sign process,” said Luecke, “because public art is a big part of the culture here.”
Outside Seattle’s Central Link Columbia City station, Luecke recalls a piece by Gale McCall, called “Relic in the Garden.” Two colossal bronze magnifying glasses, enclose what look to be etched into the lenses, outlines of � owers, a garden faucet and other intricate details, a piece that she says re� ects the character of the neighborhood. In Rainier Beach glass mosaics adorn a substation and service building. At Othello,
stacks of oversized icons – chopsticks, a rice bowl and a Japanese sandal – created by Roger Shimomura is said to provoke conversation about immigrant culture in the U.S.
� e agency hopes to preserve the same attention to detail with its East Link exten-sion. � at means taking into account that the city will grow and demographic change before East Link opens in 2023. Luecke says development of city pockets like the Spring District, will be monitored to account for � nal design.
“It’s an exciting question for the com-munities: What makes a good space? What are the features that make people want to linger?” says Luecke. “Alignment doesn’t open for 10 years. It will be a larger place with di� erent people using these stations and I think this is an exciting opportunity for people to contribute to the commu-nity…Because it’s rare that any of us gets to build on this scale.”

� e Bellevue Parks Department plans to install seven new interpretive signs at Coal Creek Park by the end of the year. A kiosk near the top of the hill will orient visitors and introduce them to the park’s history. � e remaining signs will note locations easily overlooked, says Dustin Van Nieulande, a park ranger and program coordinator at Mercer Slough Environmental Education Center.
“One of the coolest things about Coal Creek Park is once you leave your car and walk down into the canyon, you’re surrounded by nature,” says Van Nieulande. “It’s so thick and lush down there that you forget you’re walking through a suburban area of the city.”
� e signs, which are funded by a grant issued to the Eastside Heritage Center, will eventually go up in portions of the park, spotlighting for instance the concrete founda-tion of an old steam generating plant, a railroad grade and places in the stream where you can see the culvert that once carried water and allowed trains to ride on top. Coal Creek Park used to be the site of an extensive coal mining operation in the late 1800s and early 1900s.
Nothing comparable has been done at the site before, except for a few independent e� orts by Boy Scout Troops and invested citizens. Steve Williams, a retired manager of Cougar Mountain Regional Park, occasionally hosts his-tory or nature hikes through the Eastside Heritage Center.
Once construction is complete on the culvert and new

As part of Bellevue’s Environmen-tal Stewardship Initiative, the city has completed an analysis of its progress in reducing greenhouse gas pollution and created an online display, or dashboard, to share the data with the public.
� e dashboard, available at https://city-of-bellevue.scope5.com/public_dash-board, tracks progress on a variety of environmental targets set in 2007, when Bellevue signed on to the U.S. Mayors Climate Protection Agreement. It dis-plays key indicators of the organization’s environmental footprint.
� e dashboard pulls data from resource-consuming activities across all city departments, showing costs and emissions associated with vehicles, buildings and other operations in user-friendly charts.
“� e dashboard is a win, win, win for Bellevue,” said Mayor Conrad Lee. “It leverages the Eastside’s technology expertise, supports local business and im-proves the economic and environmental performance of city operations.”
� e U.S. Mayors Climate Protec-tion Agreement set a target to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 7 percent below 1990 levels by 2012. � e target is tied to an international treaty, the Kyoto Protocols, adopted by some countries in 1994. In the U.S., more than 1,000 cities, representing 89 million people world-wide, signed the agreement.
� e new dashboard measures 2012
greenhouse gas emis-sions for both municipal operations and for the entire city, and com-pares the results to 2006 baselines, and to Bel-levue’s adopted goals.
Compared to the previous greenhouse gas inventory, completed in
2006, emissions from municipal opera-tions have been reduced by more than 12 percent due to collaboration by city departments as part of the Environmen-tal Stewardship Initiative.
City measures to reduce pollution have included adding 90 hybrid vehicles to the organization’s � eet over the past three years, and implementing a resource conservation program that resulted in ap-proximately 22 percent less energy being used at City Hall in 2012, compared with 2009.
Communitywide emissions have lev-eled o� from 2006, increasing by only 0.3 percent despite a growth in population of more than 5,800 residents. While prog-ress is being made, Bellevue still needs a 22 percent reduction to meet greenhouse gas reduction targets established by the Climate Protection Agreement.
“� is data shows that even as more people move to the Eastside for jobs, schools and the quality of life, environ-mental impacts can be managed with smart, proactive planning,” Lee said.

Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC) to review permits, setbacks, landscape devel-opment requirements and context-sensitive design means that Bellevue and ST are still making sense of what community involve-ment will look like. In the meantime, ST is accepting applications for artists interested in projects ranging in size, complexity and budget (from $30,000 to $600,000). Art
projects won’t be limited just to station de-sign, but also will include elements between stops. � ose selected will be included on a roster to be considered for future art proj-ects, but are not guaranteed to be assigned anything.
“It’s important,” says Luecke, “to make these facilities more livable, workable addi-tions to the neighborhood.”

BY SARAH GERDESSPECIAL TO THE BELLEVUE REPORTER
Two teens, a basketball hoop and an idea to attempt the impossible trick shot. � at’s how it all began for 13-year-old Chip Conyard of Bellevue, who was motivated to “get away from the television screen” by his mother, Betsy.
Little did she know that less than two years later, her son and his friend, Will Hendricks, would be featured during the Olympics and recognized by local television stations.
All for trick shots.“He’s always been a wiggly boy, full of
energy,” Betsy said of her son, who found a
passion with a basketball.At � rst, Chip and a friend, Michael Hoving,
who has since moved to California, “started making goofy shots,” explained Chip, but this soon evolved into hours of planning sophis-ticated shots. Will recalls Chip and Michael taking shots and asking him to join in.
Not long a� er, Chip came up with the name of the group, United Shots of America, naming Michael CEO, himself president and Will Vice President. � ey were o� cial.
� e teens made videos for nearly two years before saving enough money to buy a light, portable hoop for $80. Hours of practice resulted in a number of videos on YouTube.
Word spread, viewers watched and the young men didn’t remain anonymous for long.
A high note came when one of the mem-bers of Dude Perfect, a college group, com-mented on United Shots of America.
“� ey have millions of followers,” said Chip proudly, along with sponsors and books. � e increased visibility led to a clip shown during the 2012 Olympics.
When it comes to determining who takes the shot, they ask one another “how you feel about the shot.”
“I’m better at backwards shot and Will’s better at bouncing o� the curb shots,” said Chip. “Michael was good at throwing it from
as far away as possible.”A� er Dude Perfect commented on the
Unites Shots of America, at least one person was thinking sponsors would come calling.
“� at was me,” admitted Will’s mom, Kris-tin Fletcher-Hendricks.
“I was just wondering where is my next shot coming from” said Chip, noting there are only so many shots you can do.
How long will it all last?“A long time,” predicted Kristin. “At some
point they will get jobs. But when the weather is cooperative, it’s their imagination in action.”
Sarah Gerdes lives in Bellevue.

Transportation group to discuss I-90 tolling
The Eastside Transportation Association will discuss proposed tolls on I-90 from 8-9:30 a.m. Wednesday, March 20 in Bellevue.
Discussing the issue will be panel members Lisa Belden, Co-Chair of No Tolls on I-90; Elizabeth Campbell, Direc-tor, The Democracy Workshop, No Interstate Tolls; Steve Marshall, Mercer Island resident; and Jim Horn, former state Senator, 41st District and former Mayor of Mercer Island
The 2012 Legislative direction and current WSDOT evaluation of tolls on I-90 to help fund the completion of SR 520 in Seattle has put the Puget Sound region in the center of a local and national debate on the concept of tolling Interstate Highways, and in particular, I-90 from Bellevue to Seattle.
The meeting is free and will be held at the office of Bel-levue Master Builders, 335 116th Ave. SE.

City, residentshave a disconnect
It was nice to read that some of the 2008 Parks Levy projects are � nally about to come to life. It seemed for a while that the levy money had been squandered and the promises had long been forgotten about.
But did I voice my concerns to the city? No I didn’t. What would be the point? � ey’d just nod and smile and
go about their business anyway. Such is my perception of the city today.
It’s a problem that comes with growing at such a rate as Bellevue has. As our city has expanded, so has the gap between us and our government.
When the folks in City Hall seem more interested in development projects for potential residents than cleaning gra� ti o� the fences of exist-ing tax payers, we distance ourselves from them. When they take forever to do something, we give up on them. Likewise, the city distances itself from us as more people voice more con� ict-
ing and o� en ridiculous opinions, and they are forced to go it alone for the sake of expediency. � e long overdue West Sammamish Parkway project is a prime example of that.
And so, with the growing popula-tion, goes our democracy. � ere must be a better framework to involve those Bellevue’s citizens who live outside the current clique, but for now we shouldn’t give up on our civic institu-tions, since every now and again, they still do what they are supposed to do.
And a� er all, it’s OUR City anyway.Lyndon Heywood, Bellevue
LETTERS
About a week ago a stark six-minute video on mash-able went viral. Within several days it’d registered millions of views. But unlike most viral sensations,
which feature some variation of cats, lip-syncing or the latest dance craze, this one spotlighted a weightier cause: income inequality in the United States.
Social media sites quickly dubbed it the new Kony 2012. Its power lies in its dramatic graphics, so if you haven’t seen it, check it out for yourself at www.mashable.com/2013/03/02/wealth-inequality.
“Americans don’t understand the extent of disparity in the U.S., and that [we] desire a more equitable society,”
said Dan Ariely, one of two who conducted the study that inspired this graphic.
� e video opens by outlining American’s perceptions of current income gaps, then moves on to display the actual income inequality rampant in society, demonstrating that the country’s wealthiest don’t even register on the graph.
I recently began reading journalist Chrystia Freeland’s book, “Plutocrats: � e Rise of the New Global Super Rich
and the Fall of Everyone Else.” I won’t spoil the ending for you (if the title doesn’t already accomplish that), but it’s full of anecdotes about cutthroat business tactics, and a self-entitled hyper-wealthy upper class with zero social responsibilities.
Income inequality is concerning precisely because it’s so entrenched, and though it’s not a new topic of conversa-tion, its o� en only shallowly understood by Americans. What’s eye-opening about this surprising viral hit is the huge discrepancy between American ideals of wealth distribution and actual distribution. � at disconnect, I suspect, is partly why there isn’t more societal outrage.
Critics were quick to point out the video’s � aws and worry aloud that it promoted socialism, but the value of this video is that it attaches words and pictures to a phenomenon that has grown too big and abstract to fully understand.
� e question now, is how we turn these strong visuals and anecdotes into action? Occupy Wall Street made the movement catchy, now, presented with the facts, we have no excuse but to act.

The plutocrats among us

As � e Reporter was going to press Wednesday night, it appeared that a bill in the Legislature to require background checks for all gun sales had
been shot down in the House. Yes, we used that word intentionally.
We mourn the bill’s death.� e bill would have required those buying guns at
gun shows to undergo a background check. � at’s noth-ing di� erent than what people who buy guns at gun shops have to do now.
� e goal, obviously, is to make sure that people who shouldn’t have guns, don’t get them.
People such as convicted felons.
People such as those with a serious mental illness.What’s so wrong with that?Some gun rights activists feared such a bill would
make it easier for the government to con� scate guns from law-abiding citizens. Anything is “possible,” but really...?
We do agree with gun rights proponents that the bill wouldn’t, of itself, end gun violence in our country. Af-ter all, Adam Lanza, the man who killed 20 children and six adults in Newtown, Conn., last December, got the guns he used from his mother, who had them legally. He killed her, too, of course.
But background checks are there for a reason. Making it harder for felons or unstable people to get their hands on guns should be something we all favor.
Apparently, we don’t.

“I’m not 87, I’m Italene,” Italene Gaddis said.
So is the mantra of the Newcastle resi-dent, who has been writing songs since she was 14 years old – but never made them public until she was 62.
For Gaddis, music has always been an important part of who she is, but she got so distracted by life she forgot to make it a priority.
� at is, until she promised her two sons she would do something with her songs – eventually. When a friend told her about a local songwriting competition, she knew she had to get involved.
“I thought it sounded like the dumbest thing ever,” Gaddis said. “But it was a good way to keep my promise to my sons.”
When she won the competition – and a recording deal – Gaddis found herself performing on a variety of local news and radio programs, at retirement homes and senior centers and even the University of Washington.
“A man called me from the university and said he heard me on the radio,” Gaddis said. “And asked me to come perform.”
When Gaddis arrived, and the booker noted her age, he asked if she wanted to
skip the performance. “He was worried the students would
heckle me,” Gaddis said. � at wasn’t an option for the musician,
who took the stage to play a three-song set. When she � nished, she received a standing
ovation. Inspired by things that make her smile –
like the goodness in people, her faith and love – Gaddis said she has written approxi-mately 300 songs. Each song took about 10 minutes to write.
“If I can’t write them in 10 minutes, I throw them out,” Gaddis said.
For the most part, Gaddis’ songs carry a theme of positivity and encouragement, both of which she hopes her listeners take to heart.
“Everybody needs to be encouraged and hear something positive.”
Gaddis admits she doesn’t have the best voice ever, and that in the beginning it wasn’t her intention to sing at all. Even so, she wants to share her message of compas-sion.
Ultimately, Gaddis said her goal is to change the world and teach people to love each other for who they are. � at’s why she recently published a book featuring the lyrics to her songs and original poems, entitled “From My Heart To Yours.”
“People were always asking me for the words,” Gaddis said about the decision to publish her work.
She says she’ll continue to write, and share her words with others for as long as she’s able.
“I don’t run out of energy,” Gaddis said. “I run out of time.”
Dressed in a glittery performance vest, her autoharp in hand, it seems that time is a long way o� .

Renton: � e suspect in a double homicide, Micheal (Chadd) Boysen, 26, was captured in Lincoln City, Ore., March 12, a� er a 10-hour stando� with Linclon City Police. Boysen is suspected of killing his grandpar-ents, Robert and Norma Taylor, March 8 or 9. Boysen was released from the Monroe Correctional Facility on March 8 a� er serv-ing a year for burglary. His family threw him a welcome home party and he was to spend the night at his grandparents.

North Bend: Tattoo parlors are not allowed in North Bend, except in an em-ployment park zone on the extreme east-ern edge of the city. At least, that’s what North Bend planning staff thought until tattoo artist David Herman, currently of Redmond, made plans to move to North Bend.

Woodinville: A small plane crashed into a home in unincorporated King County near the City of Woodinville on Saturday, March 9, killing the pilot, a Redmond man, and critically injuring a passenger. � e pilot, Jay Uusitalo, 45, died at the scene. � e passenger, Uusitalo’s nephew, was taken to Harborview Medical Center, where his condition was listed as serious on March 10.

Bellevue’s King and I restaurant has o� ered customers a rich collection of � ai dishes for more than 25 years. Its reputation has earned busy lunches, dinners – and sometimes lines out the door.
“We love it, it’s the food and the people,” said Sheila McConnell of Bellevue, who has been coming to the restaurant with her husband, Ron, since before they were married 22 years ago.
� e restaurant took its name, King and I, from the 1956 musical � lm “� e King and I,” which takes place in Siam, a name formerly used for � ailand.
� e restaurant’s lease is up at the end of this year, and the possibility that their favorite place will relocate worries the McConnell’s. � e sign in front of the restaurant indicates that changes may take place, but no one is certain when.
“At the moment, everything is in the air,” said owner Nooch Bunyaketu. “We hope that our customers will fol-low us anywhere we go.”
� e owners, Nooch and her hus-band, Kane Bunyaketu, say they work very hard, but it is more than reward-ing.
“� e management style is di� erent here; the restaurant feels like a family,” Nooch said.
Two of the chefs, Nai Ian Fong and Manyvanh Keovongsa, have been working there for 18 years, and some of the other sta� for about 10. Bunya-ketu spends most of her time in the
restaurant, side by side with the rest of her team, which is important to her, she said, adding that the atmosphere and the dynamic of the restaurant is di� erent when the management par-ticipates in the day-to-day operations.
“I treat my customers the way that I want to be treated,” Bunyaketu said.
While Bunyaketu did not start cook-ing until she was 28, she said enjoyed the cooking of others, one person in
particular – her grandmother. She always paid close attention to which ingredient went where. Her culinary interest from a young age landed her at the doorsteps of King and I.
Kane originally bought the restau-rant with a partner, and Nooch started working there – doing everything. When the partner le� , Nooch and her husband became the primary own-ers. � is is when she became more involved in cooking and developing her own recipes.
If she has to move the restaurant, Bunyaketu suspects the change will take place in about a year. She hopes to keep King and I in the Bellevue area, mainly because of the strong commu-nity and friendships she has built over the years. In the meantime, she and the rest of her team will continue to do what they know best, bringing smiles and joy to their customers.

Top international fashion brand, Façonnable, has opened its � rst free-standing store in the Northwest at Bellevue Square. � e store is next to Burberry on the � rst � oor of the Nordstrom corridor. Founded in the 1950s, Façonnable is known for its collections of men’s classic French tailoring and resort wear.
As part of its grand opening, 15 percent of its sales from March 20-24 will be donated to the Bellevue Youth � eatre Foundation. � e foundation and the City of Bellevue are raising funds for a new youth theater facility at Crossroads Park, with groundbreaking set for April.
Also on tap for the Square is Orogold Cosmetics, which features a product line formulated with gold. � e gold in the product is extremely small particles of gold that carry across the skin barrier and are absorbed into the body. Opening is planned for fall at a location yet to be deter-
mined.Camper, which debuted in Barcelona, Spain, will bring
its footwear styles to the Square in mid- to late-April on the � rst level adjacent to North Face. � e company also has stores in London, Paris and Milan.
Tommy Bahama plans to open a new store at the Square on April 24, bringing its popular sportswear and swimwear to a second-level location next to Nordstrom and Apple.
Cactus will bring its Northwest version of a Southwest kitchen and bar to the former location of Z’Tejas, which closed Jan. 31. Opening is set for June.
Chic, contemporary fashion store bebe will return to Bel-Square on March 21 in the former location of Build-A-Bear on the � rst � oor just south of Center Court.
And Lego’s Bellevue Square store, one of the company’s top U.S. sales per square foot stores in the country, has in-
creased its space on the � rst � oor near Sephora and Mikael Kors. Lego will hold a special event this weekend at Center Court to celebrate.

Leadership doesn’t always come naturally to Jessica Kent. � e Newport senior and three-time state quali� er in golf
is mostly reserved and rather quiet, a far cry from the in-your-face leaders sports are accustomed to.
But a� er spending time with peers from around the country through a summit organized by � e First Tee, a youth golf program aimed at making golf accessible to all populations and using it to instill social lessons, Kent is looking at herself in a di� erent light.
A� er being nominated by the Seattle Chapter of � e First Tee, which Kent has been part of since 2006, she rushed through the application process in only two days, gathering recommendations and responding to essay questions about leadership and its relationship to golf. To her surprise, the late push was enough to earn one of only 32 spots at the Outstanding Participant Summit, which brought together members from across the country to talk about leadership, the mission of � e First Tee and meet Annika Sorenstam, one of the most accomplished golfers in history.
For Kent, it was an opportunity to take a risk on herself as a leader.
“I might be quiet at times, or I might mumble,” she said. “For me, it is about being more assertive.”
� e participants spent the four-days in Nashville meet-ing with one another and leadership from � e First Tee to speak about the ways golf can help build their communi-ties and pass on life lessons. Kent said the experience was sometimes challenging, especially as the only participant from Washington, but quickly became another example of how golf, social interaction and networking can come together.
“I learned I’m a better speaker than I thought,” Kent said.
“I have the resources to make change in my community.” Newport golf coach Frank Nimmo said while she is not
one of his more outspoken players, Kent is a consistent force on the team and has become the classic model of, “lead by example.”
“She just comes here, does her job and has all the traits,” Nimmo said. “She’s respectful, reliable, plays with integrity, that is � e First Tee’s foundation.”
Already a volunteer on the youth advisory board of her chapter, helping with fundraising, Kent said she has plans to become more involved in helping with youth classes and being on the front lines as a First Tee coach and mentor.

� e old baseball � elds at Lake Sammamish State Park aren’t much to look at, on most days.
But Rick Ravsten remembers when the � elds were home to state championships and some of the area’s most earnest competition as the home to the Liberty rugby program, the � rst of its kind on the Eastside.
“It was really challenging to � nd � eld space,” Ravsten said. “We stepped into Lake Sammamish by default.”
Coach Josh Young and the Eastside Lions, which recently signed a three-year agreement to make the park their new home and bring rugby back to the park it � rst called home in the region, hope the area between North-west Sammamish Road and the south end of the lake can again bring together a community and gives a glimpse into a park’s uncertain future through its past.
� e group is using the � eld for practice this season, while it helps make improvements, and will hopes to host games there next year.
“Rugby is all about community,” Young said. “We want to create a place families can come.”
A� er beginning with only a dozen youngsters in 2007, the Lions now � eld teams at six levels including its mini’s
program, and also operate an adult men’s team and a budding women’s program. � eir growth has mirrored the increased popularity of the sport and made a more expansive locale a necessity, Young said. It also allows them to maintain the sense of community that comes with a � eld capable of supporting a day full of games.
“It’s already a beautiful park,” Young said. “� ey want it maintained well and that is what we plan to do.”
Sports at Lake Sammamish State Park are nothing new and while Ranger Rich Benson said as a general principle, the state has moved away from contracting with sports clubs for use of its spaces, it could be a way to increase visibility and sell more of the Discovery Passes that are on pace for a drastic shortfall from projected revenues.
A local Little League helped put in the baseball � elds now used by the Lions decades ago and the Issaquah Soc-cer Club calls another set of � elds adjacent to NW Sam-mamish Rd. home. Benson said lacrosse and even cricket, another sport making its way to the Eastside via expats, have also shown interest in one form or another.
“We’re di� erent from most state parks,” Benson said, noting its relatively urban location. “We have much more of a demand for that kind of thing.”
Even more, it gives the program and park a connection
to it’s sporting past. For Ravsten, who recently retired from coaching a� er nearly 30 years of bringing the game to the area, it is also a bridge for the current rugby community.
“Josh has done a tremendous job,” Ravsten said. “It kind of ties in the old and the new.”

Drivers on the SR 520 bridge would be able to plead their cases with a judge if they feel they got unfairly penalized for not paying the bridge toll on time – and they can get the penalty thrown out if the judge buys their argument, under a bill by Rep. Cyrus Habib that passed the House 98-0 on Saturday, March 9.
Currently, judges in the state’s special “toll court” don’t have the authority to reduce or waive penal-
ties assessed for late payment of tolls on the bridge, regardless of cir-cumstances. House Bill 1941 gives the judges the leeway to do that a� er hearing from the
penalized driver.“Most drivers pay the tolls,” Habib
said, “and those that try to avoid
payment on purpose should be pe-nalized. But sometimes, it’s not their fault – and everyone should have a chance to make their case.”
Tolls were � rst imposed on the 520 bridge last spring, but there are no traditional booths for collecting them.
Habib’s bill does not excuse un-fairly penalized drivers from paying the actual toll.
� e measure now goes to the Sen-ate for further action.

Even though summer seems far o� , enrollment for day camps and summer camps has already started in many districts. As space at camps and day programs is usually limited, it is important to talk to your children now and decide where and how they want to spend their summer vacation.
A multitude of camps propose many di� erent formu-las. Begin by carefully evaluating the personal needs and wishes of your child.
� e � rst thing to consider is the choice between a sum-mer camp and a day camp. Longer or shorter stays are usu-ally an option at either one. � e main di� erence, of course, is that the former includes on-site lodging and full meals, while the latter only includes daytime activities, according

Summer Fun2013
Most years, summer seems to � y by fast. But that wonderful, warm season can seem very long when you’re not prepared. To ensure that you can give your children the best summer ever, look into the variety of summer camps on o� er in our region and book them in early.
� ese days, summer camps o� er an aston-ishing breadth of choice for all kinds of inter-ests. Traditional outdoor activities, science, sports, arts, language immersion, and scouting are just some of what’s available for kids. It is worth taking the time to browse the options along with your children; their comments will reveal exactly what is most likely to work for them.
Know how to listen and be decisiveMaybe your children have already expe-
rienced summer camp, in which case you’ll be able to make a choice according to their likes and needs. You could also � nd out about camps that their friends go to, as they will
probably be tempted by the same ones.If none of the camps available are of inter-
est to them, you could compare the di� erent possibilities yourself. � ere are general camps suitable for a wide range of children, while there are many others that aim to develop one particular strength. You could even take into account their school work or their personal aptitudes to help you come to a decision.
Is it still hard to decide? Just follow your instincts. Book a short week instead of a full summer away, and then you’ll know for next year. And share all the positive experiences you had as a child at summer camp, or even better, show them some photos of your own life-long summer camp memories.
Browse the di� erent types of camps with your children: sciences, sports, arts, scouting, and language immersion are just some of the choices.
Life-long summer camp memories
Children with a chronic illness or a disability are o� en surprisingly mature for their age. � ey learn to live with their condition and accept it. � ey grow up trying to push their limits to the maximum and inspire family and friends with their strength of character.
Even though the majority of parents are ready to � ght tooth and nail for the well-being of these “di� erent” children, they feel sick at heart every
time a door is slammed shut in their faces. � at is why they are so appreciative of specialized summer camps that allow young people with physical or intellectual disabilities or a chronic illness such as diabetes, asthma, or cystic � brosis to experience an unforgettable time, one that is perfectly suited to their abilities.
Some of the many advantages of these camps are that they allow children to escape their daily routine and stress and participate in challenging activities that they’ll love to tackle, all without any pressure to � t in with their peers.
Summer camps also o� er some valuable respite to o� en overwhelmed parents who need the assurance that their children will be cared for by a competent team, including
nursing sta� . Safe surroundings, quali� ed special counselors, and personalized activities are some of the essential elements of this kind of camp.
Parents who tend to overprotect their children are giving them the beautiful gi� of independence. Even if a child is ill or limited in their physical or intellectual development, they still need games, laughter, mischief, and discovery. And, above all, they need to build their personality, their self-esteem, and to be � lled with wonder, as all children do.
Specialized summer camps allow young people with physical or intellectual disabilities to experience an unforgettable time that is perfectly suited to their abilities.

Temperatures rose and the sun hung over Bellevue for most of the day on Friday, March 8, bringing everyone from dog-walkers and joggers to curious toddlers to the Downtown Park for an brief spring preview.
� e sunshine and seasonally warm weather hung around through Saturday, before rain showers moved back, just in time for Daylight Savings Time on Sunday.
Fun in the Bellevue sunA young man makes a leaping catch of a frisbee on one of the park’s lawns.
Stella, an 11-month-old Scottish Terrier and Bellevue resident, energetically interacts with the ducks.
Walkers, runners and joggers were in no short supply, as a number of men, women and children took to the park’s trail for some fresh air and exercise.
A man and woman share conversation near the waterfall, overlooking Bellevue.
Elliot Antrosio, a resident of downtown Bellevue and nearly two years old, looks on as ducks swim in the reflection pool.
Pets for adoption‘Rescue’ your next best friend
Scrappy is a 2-year-old Chi-huahua/Terrier mix that loves to bounce and his athletic nature would lend itself well to agility training. Scrappy can soak up the love as the center of your attention or share the limelight with another tail-wagging pal.
Pumpkin is a 6-year-old gentle-man that needs a warm lap and a kind word. He adores people and looks forward to a life full of head rubs and back scratches. Both are at the Seattle Humane Society in Bel-levue, located at the intersection of I-405 and I-90. It is open seven days a week from noon to 6 p.m. For directions call 425-641-0080.
Gabbie is a 5-year-old kitty that was saved from a local shelter when she had run out of time. Gabbie has a pretty, sleek black coat and talks to you with adorable little chirps. She is up for adoption at Purrfect Pals Cat Shelter’s o� site adoption center inside Bellevue Petsmart (100 108th Ave N.E., near Toys ‘R Us).
Tink is a 12-year-old female do-mestic medium hair Calico that may be petite, but she has a big heart and loves to interact with people. All she wants is some love and a� ection.
Tink is available at the King County Pet Adoption Center in Kent, located at 21615 64th Ave S. Call 206-296-PETS for more information.

Bellevue resident and Renton Technical College instruc-tor, Martin Paquette, was named “� e 2012 Surveyor of the Year” by the Land Surveyors’ Association of Washington. Hosted by the LSAW, the annual Award Banquet Dinner was held at the Tulalip Resort in Marysville on March 8.
Paquette has practiced surveying for over 35 years, but moved to Bellevue and began his career at Renton Techni-cal College in 1991.
“� is is the greatest honor that I’ve ever received” said Paquette.
Surveying is the discipline of measuring points above, on and under the surface of the earth. Renton Technical Col-lege’s Land Surveying program is one of only three in the state, and as surveyors retire, there is a growing need for professional surveyors.
Paquette has dedicated many hours to teaching at LSAW chapter meetings and seminars. He also serves as the chair of the LSAW Education Committee and sits on the Survey Advisory Board of the Washington State Department of Natural Resources.
Twelve Washington State chapters submitted nomina-tions for this honor.

One person’s story and experience cannot represent an entire culture or race. Bellevue women from around the world will focus on that message at the next Cultural Conversations meeting on March 19 at the Crossroads Community Center.
Sharing stories of diverse cultures and practices has always been a primary activity in the Cultural Conversations group, which includes women from many countries. But cultures have too many layers to be captured in one person’s experience.
At the March 19 meeting, participants will see a � lm clip of a speech from Nigeri-an storyteller Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie called “� e Danger of a Single Story.” Adi-chie shares the experience of � nding her authentic voice, and warns that if we hear only a single story about another person or country, we risk a critical misunderstand-ing. Participants will have an opportunity to share their perspectives in small groups during the event.
Cultural Conversations was launched in 2010 as a partnership between diverse women in the community and the city’s Neighborhood Outreach team. � e concept was initiated by women who hoped to de-velop community connections and enhance their knowledge and understanding of dif-
ferent cultural practices and world views.Monthly gatherings are free, with re-
freshments served, and women of all ages, faiths and cultures are welcome to attend. Meetings are on Tuesdays at the Crossroads Community Center, 16000 NE 10th St. Meetings scheduled through June are:
Apr. 23, 1-2:30 p.m. Stress relievers in di� erent cultures; and
June 4, 1-2:30 p.m. Cultural attitudes toward money and � nancial security.

John Robert Hudson1948 – 2013Our beloved Bob Hudson died Thursday,
February 28, at the University of Washington Medical Center.
Bob grew up on the Eastside, graduating from Bothell High School and Renton Technical College.
Bob was a land surveyor who loved the outdoors and reveled in the camaraderie of his survey team buddies. Later in life, he
switched careers to work in the retail grocery and restaurant industry, and then in transportation, when he joined MV Transportation.
Bob married his wife Hannah Kimball on September 26, 2004 after a long and glorious courtship. He is also survived by son Thomas Hudson (wife Martina, daughters Cheyenne and Riley); daughter Cecilia Duncan (husband Michael, son Gabe); stepdaughter Allison Kimball (husband Nick, son Alex).
Bob loved snow skiing, tent camping, hiking, music, his p-patch garden, reading, football games and spending weekends at his beach house in Ocean Shores. Bob’s greatest enjoyment was playing pool -- he was well-known across the Eastside for his skill, his sense of fair play, and his willingness to mentor budding pool players. He was a determined competitor.
John Robert Hudson was a vibrant man who loved life and all the people in it. He laughed easily and often, and his sense of joy was genuine. Bob captured hearts and minds with his sense of humor, outgoing nature, and mischievous grin. The lights dimmed when Bob died.
Bob’s family suggests donations in his memory to: Bellevue Medic 1, 450 110th Ave NE Bellevue, WA 98004 or Hope Heart Institute c/o Development Office, 1380 112th Ave NE Suite 200, Bellevue, WA 98004.

BY GABRIELLE NOMURASPECIAL TO THE REPORTER
With some shows, one time is the charm. With Teatro ZinZanni, no matter how many times you go back, new wonders and a trans-formative experience await you at this Seattle circus-dinner-theater.
� is time? It’s an out-of-this-world Nordic, rock 'n’ roll extravaganza where the audience is invited to come party with the gods: Wotan, � or, Freya and the gang in Valhalla through an evening of bleach blonde wigs, steamy passion, acrobatics, comedy (not to mention heavenly smoked white cheddar and gouda soup!).
Co-directed by ZinZanni founder, Norm Langill and Swedish triple-threat, Tobias Lars-son, the show is ZinZanni at its best. Highlights include former Paci� c Northwest Ballet balle-rina, Ariana Lallone, in a half-ballet, half-aerial routine as she uses a hoop suspended from the ceiling to spin, leap, and jump.
Additionally, back by popular demand, the sultry Verti-cal Tango duo could not be more mesmerizing. Using simply a pole in the middle of the room, the two acrobat’s bodies twist and turn around one another while suspended in mid-air, holding on to the pole, only to slide down with perfect control and dancer-like grace.
An ode to the Northwest’s Nordic community, Dinner At Wotan’s rocked the tent with a hybrid of classical operatic scores and epic rock ballads such as Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody.”
Note that ZinZanni is famous for it’s audience participa-tion, but never fear: it’s impossible not to have fun under this vintage tent, especially with a few glasses of wine or
champagne. While in this economy, even going to the movies can
seem like a splurge, the magic of ZinZanni is worth saving up for and will li� your spirit in this dreary Northwest win-ter until spring arrives. No other show allows patrons to see ballerinas or acrobats close-up, or opera divas rocking out with clowns and drag queens.
Dinner at Wotan’s plays through May 12 at Teatro Zin-Zanni, 222 Mercer St., Seattle. For tickets, go to dreams.zinzanni.org.
Gabrielle Nomura is a former staff writer with the Bellevue Reporter and Scene Magazine and lives in Seattle.

Interlake High School student Audrey Chen will spend her summer playing in one of the greatest concert halls in the world as a member of the first-ever National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America (NYO-USA).
Chen, a cellist in Interlake's Chamber Orchestra, is one of 120 young musicians in the country – and one of six in Washington state – chosen to participate.
A second Interlake student, Dong Hee Lee, was named as an alternate.
As part of the orchestra, Chen will travel to New York this June, where she will spend two weeks rehearsing and work-ing with professional musicians. Following the rehearsals, Chen will embark on a worldwide concert tour with the orchestra, which will take them to Washington, D.C.’s Ken-nedy Center, as well as Moscow, St. Petersburg and London.
“It’s really a one of a kind experience,” said Chen, a junior. “I’m really excited to be in such a high level orchestra with such
amazing conductors and amazing soloists.”
The orches-tra was cre-ated by Car-negie Hall’s Weill Music Institute and features students ages 16-19 from all 50 states. Students were required to submit a performance video, along with a written application.
Students in the inaugural orchestra will be led by world-renowned conductor Valery Gergiev and perform with acclaimed violinist Joshua Bell.

In addition to offering attendees the chance to see the movie on the big screen, The Sing-a-long “Sound of Music” is a major audience participation event with captions for all the songs. Prizes will also be awarded for the best costumes.
The festivities kick-off at 2 p.m., each day. Tickets are $20/person or $16/person for groups of four or more at www.brownpapertickets.com. The Theatre at Meydenbauer, 11100 NE 6th St., Bellevue.
SSO presents spring concertSammamish Symphony is proud to welcome conductor
and music director, R. Joseph Scott back to the Meydenbauer Theater for a special concert at 2 p.m. on April 7, 2013. Founder of the Bellevue Philharmonic, Scott will conduct “From the New World”.
Scott grew the Philharmonic from it’s inception in 1967 until 1997; in 1999 he took a position with the Sammamish Symphony Orchestra. Now in it’s 21st season, Sammamish Symphony features more than 90 musicians.
The April concert will also feature special guest Ben Haus-man. Principal Oboist of the Seattle Symphony since 2006, Hausman has previously held that position in L’Orcheste Symphonique de Quebec, the Savannah Symphony, the Florida Philharmonic, the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, and has ap-peared with the San Francisco Symphony and Los Angeles Phil-harmonic. He is also an accomplished pianist and composer.
Tickets for the April 7 concert are available at the door or at www.TicketWeb.com; $16/adult, $12/Seniors and students, Free/Children 10 and under.
The 5th Avenue Theatre’s 2013/14 season features a variety of new productions and Broadway classics.
The season opens with a new new musical, “Secondhand Lions” (Sept. 10-Oct. 6), followed by the Broadway tour of “Anything Goes” (Oct. 15-Nov. 3). The 2011 Tony Award-win-ning show is packed with Cole Porter songs.
The theater will celebrate a Christmas with Oliver! (Nov. 29-Dec. 31) to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the first Broadway production of the classic Dickens’ tale.
The 5th begins 2014 with Monty Python’s “Spamalot” (Jan. 30-March 2). The Tony Award-winner for Best Musical is based on the 1975 film “Monty Python and The Holy Grail.”
Spring will bring “A Room With a View” (April 8-May 4), a
new musical based on the E.M. Forster novel that inspired the Merchant Ivory film. It is set in the same era as Downton Abbey.
The 5th will continue its annual collaboration with ACT by co-producing “Little Shop of Horrors” (April 12-June 29). Based on Roger Corman’s cult horror B-movie, the musical comedy tells the story of a nerdy florist shop worker who raises a vicious, raunchy plant that feeds on human blood.
To close the season, The 5th is bringing the Broadway tour of this year’s Tony Award winner for Best Revival – “Porgy & Bess” (June 11-29).
Tickets are available online at 5thavenuetheatre.org, by phone at 206-625-1900 or in person at the theater’s box office, 1308 5th Ave., Seattle.
