Cougar/Squak park opensBY DANIEL NASHISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

On Saturday, the King County Department of Natu-ral Resources and Parks opened a new trailhead and of- cially closed the chapter on a nearly three-year e ort to turn a former campground and potential logging site into a park.

Now the County is seeking the publics ideas for what to do with the newest 216 acres of Cougar/Squak Cor-ridor Park.

Issaquah Alps Trails Club President David Kap-pler cut the ribbon on the expansion in front of more than 100 people outside of the old Issaquah Highlands Recreational Club lodge and the beginning of the new Margaret Way trail.

Representatives from the County, the Washington State Trust for Public Lands, grassroots organization Save Squak, the Washington Trails Association, Moun-tains to Sound Greenway Trust and outdoors retailer REI were in attendance, among others.

e expansion creates a south-end access point to Squaks county and state trail network, accessible from State Route 900.

And its not only connectivity for hikers; its connec-tivity for wildlife, Kappler said.

In November 2012, Kappler found out from others in the community that the old Issaquah Highlands Recreational Club had been purchased by Erickson Logging Inc.

Over the subsequent half-year, the company applied multiple times with the state Department of Natural Resources to harvest the lands timber, some of which were accepted. However, the Trails Club and grassroots organization Save Squak continued to lobby King County to purchase the land.

e county didnt have immediate funds to purchase the land, but the club and Save Squak attracted the attention of the Washington Trails Association and e Trust for Public Land.

e Trust for Public Land eventually made a deal in July 2013 to purchase the land on behalf of King County for $5 million. King County acquired the land in December 2014 a er completing repayment to e Trust for Public Land.

We were lucky, Kappler said.On Tuesday, County DNRP spokesman Doug Wil-

liams gave the Reporter a tour of the park expansion. Hiking up the Margaret Way trail named for late Issaquah City Parks Planner Margaret Macleod, who died of lung cancer in December 2013 Williams pointed out the evidence of the sites former life as a

e Sammamish Police Department arrested 21-year-old Chase Dunkel June 1, a er linking him to numerous vehicular smash and grabs throughout the city in May.

Police received 53 reports of smashed windows and stolen property, including four in Klahanie, involving more than 70 vehicles, between May 19 and May 30. Of those, Dunkel has been linked to 17 incidents.

We got hit hard, Chief Nathan Elledge said.

O cers recovered at least $60,000 in sto-len property at Studio 6, a hotel in Mount-lake Terrace, where the man was staying, Detective William Albright said. Police had served a search warrant on the hotel room and the suspects car on June 1.

Erik Luden pleaded not guilty Friday in Whitman County Superior Court to one count of alleged second-degree murder, for his role in the death of his father last weekend.

Luden was arrested Sat-urday, May 30, a er police responded to his College Hill apartment to nd his fa-ther, Virgil C. Luden, 58, of Sammamish, Wash., dead. Luden reportedly told 911 dispatchers his father had at-tacked him with a knife and he responded by hitting him with a kitchen pot.

Whitman County

Coroner Pete Martin ruled the manner of death as homicide.

Luden also received injuries to his hand consis-tent with being in a ght and had three lacerations to his le forearm, described as self-in icted. He was treated at Pullman Regional Hospi-tal before being transported to the Whitman County Jail where he remains in custody on $500,000 bail.

Second-degree murder carries a maximum sentence of life in prison and up to a $50,000 ne, plus restitu-

tion. e second-degree murder charge also includes enhancements for domestic

violence and possession of a deadly weapon.

If found to have been armed with a weapon at the time of the alleged incident, Luden could face an additional 24 months added

on to any sentence.Luden is scheduled to

appear in court again Friday for an omnibus hearing and July 10 for readiness.

A trial is tentatively scheduled to begin July 20.

Some, like electrical hookups extend-ing several hundred feet up the side of the mountain, may be removed in the near future, he said.

Others proved to be a boon, like the camps backroads up Squak. Volunteers were able to incorporate the roads as particularly wide trails and branch out further trails.

ey took advantage of this old network of roads, Williams said. ey could go up the roads, pop a trail in and get some elevation.

As many as 475 people in 60 work parties

worked on the expansion and trail over 7,500 hours, according to an article from Trails Club Vice President Doug Simpson for the clubs newsletter.

King County held an initial community meeting taking public input on Cougar/Squak Corridor Park May 27.

A second meeting will be held 6:30 p.m. June 17, at the Eagle Room in Issaquah City Hall. Written comment will be accepted until June 26.

ORDER AND DETERMINATION BY THE DIRECTOR

Washington State is experiencing a drought emergency. We have record-low snowpack in themountains, and snowmelt through the spring and summer is what traditionally keeps rivers flow-ing, crops watered, and fish alive. We are starting to feel the pain from this snowpack drought.Impacts are already severe in several areas of the state.

More than 70 percent of the state's snow monitoring stations have record-low snowpack. As aresult, many of our major rivers are forecasted to have record-low flows - the lowest in the past64 years - between April and September. This shortfall is a serious threat to municipal anddomestic water supplies, irrigated agriculture, and fisheries throughout Washington.

With the concurrence of Governor Inslee and following consultation with affected Indian Tribes,I hereby expand the drought emergency to include all of Washington State.

Snowpack conditions across the state have continued to decline since the initial regional droughtdeclaration on March 13, 2015. Dozens of major rivers are at record-low flows for this date. Thelonger-term weather forecast is for warmer and drier-than-normal conditions for this spring andsummer. Conditions are likely to get worse.

Reduced snowpack creates risks to municipal and domestic water supplies. The Department ofHealth has identified numerous water systems throughout the state that draw water from shallowalluvial aquifers, which are dependent on groundwater recharge from snowmelt.

Agriculture faces a risk of crop loss throughout the state. Farmers in the Yakima and the WallaWalla basins are being curtailed, which could have devastating impacts on orchards and vine-yards. Curtailment is likely to occur in the Little Spokane, Nooksack, and Chehalis basins, andcould occur for the first time ever in the Colville Basin. Loss to perennial crops in these regionswould be a significant hardship to individual farmers and agricultural communities.

Throughout the state, there is a high risk that fish populations will experience hardship from ex-tremely low flowing rivers this year. Hatcheries will face warmer water, increased risk of disease,and potential loss of water supply. Tributaries and smaller streams may drop to levels wherestream channels become impassible to fish. Pools of water will become disconnected from otherpools, isolating fish and increasing the risks of predation and harassment.

Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of RCW 43.838.405, IT IS ORDERED that all ofWashington state is hereby under a drought emergency. This order is effective immediately andshall remain in effect through December 31, 2015, unless terminated prior to that date.

In accordance with the provisions of WAC 173-166-060, the Department of Ecology may, underthe terms of this order, take the following emergency actions: (1) Issue emergency permits forwater. (2) Approve temporary transfers of water rights. (3) Provide funding assistance to publicagencies to alleviate drought conditions. (4) Take other actions depending on future developments.

Other state and local agencies with authority to issue permits or authorizations related to thedrought emergency actions must provide a decision to an applicant within fifteen (15) calendardays of the date of application.

In accordance with the proclamation of the Washington Governor, dated January 3, 1989,(Centennial Accord), nothing herein shall impair or infringe upon the treaty reserved rights orgovernmental authority of any federally recognized Indian tribe nor shall this order be deemed anassertion of state authority over Indian reservation lands. The Department of Ecology intends towork cooperatively, on a government-to-government basis, with all affected tribes.

Further details about this order or the actions available under it, may be obtained by contacting:Jeff Marti, Department of Ecology, PO Box 47600, Olympia, WA 98504-7600; 360-407-6627;Email: [email protected]

Applications for emergency water permits or temporary transfers of water rights are available bycontacting one of the Department of Ecology's regional offices: Northwest Regional Office; Bellevue, WA; 425-649-7020; Email: [email protected] Central Region Office; Yakima, WA; 509-575-2597; Email: [email protected] Southwest Regional Office; Lacey, WA; 360-407-6859; Email: [email protected] Eastern Regional Office; Spokane, WA; 509-329-3541; Email: [email protected]

Deputy nance director digs into Klahanie annexationBY MEGAN CAMPBELLISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Sammamish Deputy Finance Director Chris Gianini is buried in neatly stacked documents orderly spaced on her desk.

Her current project involves digging through research so when the Klahanie annexation takes place, the city of Sam-mamish can start collecting the estimated $6.5 million in annual revenues. Of that, Sammamish expects to see $1.4 million in excess a er subtracting the costs for services.

Its a fascinating project, she said thumb-ing through an 89-page handbook the Municipal Research and Services Cen-ter prepared for annexing within the state.

Gianini will use this document, as well as the 65-page report the city pre-pared, in correlation with state laws to be sure the city noti es all parties to send

tax revenues, like sales tax, fuel tax or liquor excise tax, to the city instead of the county.

Finance Director Joe Guinasso jokes that Gianini does all the work in the o ce.

She is very key and instrumental to everything that goes on here, Guinasso said. She knows the citys nances, I would say, better than anyone in the city. Shes a master of research.

He recently rec-ognized her during a May 5 council meeting for earning the Professional Finance O cer award in 2014, for the 23rd time in a row.

e Washington Finance O cers Association, a nonpro t that promotes excellence in governmental nance throughout the state, presents the award to those who qualify. To be eligible for the recognition, nance o cers must show ongoing commitment to professional development, communication for the public bene t and ongoing education.

To me, its more like Im

doing something Id have to do anyway, she said.

She said a lot of the work she has done to earn the recognition she would have to do anyway, to maintain her certi ed public accoun-tant license.

Some of the quali -cations shes met include leading nancial discussions outside of the Sam-mamish nancial team and serving on

the Puget Sound Finance O cers Association board of directors.

Gianini, 66, has been working for Sammamish since 2008. Before that, she held two positions in city of Redmonds nance depart-ment.

While working in Redmond, she completed her bachelors from City University in Seattle when she was 40, a er raising her two children, now grown, with her husband. eyve lived in unincorporated King County, just south of Issaquah, since 1976. Shes been married for 47 years.

Her job is mostly detailed administrative work with a lot of Excel spreadsheets and numbers.

But shes fascinated by the work being done in the other departments.

Im really interested in how this money is spent, she said. What does it mean for Sammamish?

Over the years, shes gone on many tours, where other department leaders explain how and where theyll construct improvements, like turning the swamp-like path of 224th Avenue into a functional road.

She said its nice to get out, because even her eyes will glaze over when analyz-ing the numbers.

CHRISGIANINI

Behind the scenes with numbers, researchin unincorporated King County and surrounding areas, like Redmond, Elledge said.

is is not just a Sammamish thing, Elledge said.While car prowls and larceny are common crimes in

Sammamish, these incidents stood out due to the physi-cal damage the suspect caused, he said.

e naturally trusting nature of Sammamish resi-dents puts them at risk for these types of crimes, Elledge said.

Its just inviting someone to do something, he said. e is on the rise.

Between 2013 to 2014, there was nearly a 50 percent increase in the s throughout the city. ere were 277 incidents reported last year, whereas there were 186 in 2013, according to the chief. ese statistics include all forms of the , not just vehicular.

e department does not have a tally for the in 2015.

Elledge suggests people remove their valuables from their vehicles or at least remove valuables from plain sight. If residents hear a car alarm or see something suspicious, dont ignore it, he said.

For an emergency or ongoing incident call 911. e nonemergency dispatch line is 206-296-3311.

If you walk around the Capitol today you wont get the sense theres a crisis looming in the state. A government shutdown is a mere three weeks away but on another sunny and warm day, theres not much visible activity taking place to prevent the shuttering of agencies. Whats needed is a new two-year state budget. And as a small number of House and Senate members try to hash one out, the majority of lawmakers as well as lobbyists,

reporters and other inter-ested parties are left to swap rumors about the progress of those e orts. Its clear House Democrats are insisting on additional revenue and Senate Repub-

licans are resisting. Whats not clear is exactly how close the two sides got to at least agreeing on how much money to spend before deciding where that money would come from. What is known is Gov. Jay Inslee stepped in last week to help guide House and Senate negotiators toward an agreement. Democratic and Republican envoys from each caucus came to his o ce every morning, to try to construct a bridge across the rhetorical and nancial chasm between the majority parties in the two chambers.

This was a big moment for Inslee. Hes garnered a reputation around the Capitol as being averse to such deep engagement in the legislative process unless the subject matter is climate change. Yet there he was at the table every day slogging it out with lawmakers and sta .On Friday, Inslee and his budget director David Schum-acher met privately with Rep. Ross Hunter and Sen. Andy

High stakes, low drama and no budget deal

Budget negotiations remain stalled

Annex Klahanie by August 1

e annexation of the Klahanie PAA could happen August 1, 2015, and would allow the citizens to vote in the November Elections. e City Council needs to make this decision.

If the date of annex is not until Dec 31st, then voting rights will not be available. It is our right as citizens of the Unites States of America to vote in elections per our constitution. e City of Sammamish would collect about $2.9 million for taxes, that the County normally would be collect-ing, but not for the rest of 2015, and the City would be. So the remaining balance could be used to lessen the cost of the Issaquah Fall City Road upgrade. As is, the City is asking the State of Washington for money, and the rest will be funded by Sammamish Bonds, and paid for by the money made and saved from the Klahanie PAA property taxes. e Klahanie PAA is perfectly ne with providing the same level of services for them-selves as they have been doing for 35 years or so, which means the City of Sammamish can transition smoothly to the new annexation area with the help of the PAA. With that said, it would awesome for the City to take over management of the King County Park in Klahanie before end of sum-mer and fall, to make it more to City standards.

Rob Young, Klahanie

Valderrama best for Sammamish Council

I strongly believe our Nation and the individual States have survived and thrived as a result of key foundational

principles of governing that were out-lined by our Founding Fathers nearly 240 years ago.

Article 1, Sec. 1 of Washingtons Constitution, rati ed in 1889, lays it out clearly, All political power is inherent in the people, and govern-ments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, and are established to protect and maintain individual rights.

Lest any elected or appointed of- cial forget the source of their power, Article II, Sec. 1 should leave no doubt in his/her mind. . . .the people reserve to themselves the power to propose bills, laws, and to enact or reject the same . . ..

As Sammamish citizens begin to evaluate the candidates for Novembers City Council elections, Im reminded that with every right, comes responsi-bility. Successful government does not happen without involved citizens and elected o cials who understand their role is not to be an autocratic source of power, but to be a representative for all the citizens. An example are the positions taken pro or con by seated Council Members on the recent Initia-tive/Referendum Advisory Vote.

I look forward to supporting candi-dates who are willing to listen to and work together with Sammamishs citi-zens, sta and other elected o cials. I want my representatives to respect the laws of the City by applying them to each of us equally and without bias or exceptions. Finally, I want to know that these candidates are committed to decisions based on truth, even if it doesnt support their desired outcome.

My observation of Ramiro Valder-rama as a City Councilman over the past 4 years is that he meets my criteria. I look for forward to evaluat-ing candidates for the other positions through the same lens.

Mary Jo Kahler , Sammamish

Let educators not lawmakers design tests

In a recent letter to the North Kitsap Herald, (a Sound Publish-ing newspaper,) entitled, Common Core wont improve education, James Behrend nailed it when he identi ed a root cause of the failure of Common Core as politicians in Washington, D.C. who are frustrated with the problems in education they do not understand.

Because reformers only solve the problems they de ne, incorrect de ni-tions are doomed to produce failing and o en unnecessarily expensive re-forms. As a retired career high school teacher, I speak with experience.

Standardized tests are not the solu-tion to improvement of student learn-ing. Tests designed and administered by professionally trained classroom teachers are a far superior option.

Both the NEA and WEA oppose the standardized testing regimen.

I trust the judgment of profession-ally educated classroom teachers to teach and evaluate individual student performance because classroom teachers are the real experts who understand from daily experience the real problems in mandatory formal education.

e chief value of standardized testing is to identify where and how to sequence curriculum content and concepts taught. Standardized tests evaluate the delivery system, not how well individual teachers teach or indi-vidual students learn.

e bipartisan compromise reform by politicians Patty Murray and La-Mar Alexander is not a real solution to a real problem because this proposed compromise reform remains rotten at its core.

To the editor

Hill, the lead budget writers of the two chambers. That conversation ended with a greater sense of optimism at the proximity of an accord than at any other point in awhile at least from the perspective of the governor.Schumacher told reporters they were pretty close to an agreement on the level of spending AKA the size of the box.At one point he described it as a tentative agreement if both caucuses go along with the framework put together by negotiators.Apparently that characterization de ated the buoyant mood and kind of ended Inslees tenure as a potential deal-maker.Schumacher, in the view of lawmakers, committed a major foul by telling reporters about what purportedly transpired behind those closed doors. For all their disagreements, Democrats and Republicans agree there must be a cone of silence on those conversations. Thats why the door is closed.An alternative tale circulating in the rumor mill is the tentative bridge collapsed under the weight of opposition from conservative Republican senators and not anything Schumacher said.Budget o ers are continuing to get exchanged between the two chambers. If an accord is reached on how much will be spent in the next two-year budget, the other pieces are sup-posed to fall into place quickly, budget writers have insisted.Thats where things appear to stand as the threat of a shut-down grows nearer every hour.

in 2008 when the city told them they could not build on the small wetland located in the middle of their property.

It was seven years of heck, Megan Gee said. Its not over until they give us that shoreline variance.

Per the settlement agreement, the city will allow the Gees to submit a variance which would allow them to develop in the buer around the wetland. is variance is still dependent on the hearing examiner and the Washington State Department of Ecology review. If the plans are not ap-proved, the case will go to trial.

In the early 2000s, the Gees bought two parcels on Beaver Lake. One already had a structure on it and the other, the low-grade wetland.

Megan Gee hoped to build a single-family home overlooking the lake for her young children.

ats all I want. I just want to be able to see the lake, she said. (Now) that dream is over.

In 2008, when the Gees began talks with the citys community development depart-ment, sta told the couple the wetland posed a signicant barrier to their dream home overlooking the lake, court docu-ments say.

e 3,800-square-foot wetland, located in the middle of the undeveloped parcel, in addition to the 50 foot buer zone and minimum distance requirements from the lake, meant the Gees only option to build was a small area near the road.

Not only was building so close to the road a safety hazard for their son with spe-cial needs, but the 12,000-square-foot space did not support a sewage system, according to the critical areas study Seattle consultant ENVIRON International Corporation pro-duced in 2009 at the Gees request.

e Gees had tried to sell the property in 2009.

Nobody would buy it, Megan Gee said. And the value plummeted.

In 2012, the Gees decided to take part in the citys review of the environmentally critical areas (ECA) regulations. is re-view was part of the larger comprehensive plan update, due this year as mandated by the states Growth Management Act.

e Gees hoped the city would allow wetlands under 4,000 square feet to be lled; whereas, current regulations permit wetlands of 1,000 square feet to be devel-oped on.

e Gees argued that their wetland was created by urban development, does not support animal life and has very little use for ltering pollutants from the water. e

ENVIRON report supports those claims.Megan Gee made her rst public records

request in January 2012 for an inventory of all known isolated[d] wetlands under 5000 (sic) square feet within the [C]ity, according to court documents.

In response, Community Development Deputy Director Susan Cezar said the city does not have an inventory of all wetlands under 5,000 square feet, but listed three sites she and sta could recall o the tops of their heads, according to court docu-ments.

City sta then asked for the reason Gee made the request, which goes against the Public Records Act.

In any case, Gee responded.We are interested to help inform

the Planning Commission and the City Council about the actual and likely (future) impacts of the current ECA ordinances and of potential changes to the ECA ordinanc-es, including such things as the denition and regulation of hydrologically isolated wetlands (sic), Gee wrote in her response to the city.

A few months later, city senior planner Evan Maxium gave a presentation to the planning commission where he said there were several isolated wetlands in Sam-mamish, according to court documents.

e Gees submitted another records request March 2012 in order to gather a list of wetlands not previously released.

In response, Kathy Curry, a wetland biologist and senior environmental planner with the city, said it would be near impos-sible to provide a more detailed response, and resent the previous list sta gave in January 2012, court documents say.

It was this response that was unsatisfac-tory and the basis for the lawsuit, as city sta eventually did produce a list of 42 hydrologically isolated wetlands, under 4,000 square feet, throughout the city at the request of a city councilmember during the May 2013 ECA update meeting.

ese cuto wetlands have similarly low habitat scores to that of the Gees wetland.

Megan Gee said it felt like the citys re-sponse was a personal attack on her family.

e city has acted in a horric way, Gee said. Citizens should be shocked.

e case was scheduled to go to trial June 15.

City spokesman Tim Larson said the de-cision to settle was based on a risk assess-ment; that is, it would be more expensive to go to court.

e city maintains settlement is a two-party process, one that is usually achieved close to the trial date.

Frankly, I think (the city) got a scream-ing deal, Gee said of the settlement.

e variance the Gees seek will not set precedent for other homeowners.

LAWSUITCONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Police on Wednesday searched for two suspects a Sixth Avenue Southeast resident reported had ille-gally entered their home.

e owner of the home on the 100 block of Sixth Avenue Southeast con-fronted the men shortly aer they entered the

home through an open door at 4:30 a.m. ey ed the scene.

Police responded with the assistance of a K-9 unit from the Bellevue Police Department but did nd the suspects.

One of the suspects was described as a clean-

shaven Hispanic male with short hair, 17-20 years old, 5-feet 10-inches tall and 170 pounds. He was wearing a T-shirt and jeans at the time of the crime.

Police ask the public to call their on-duty sergeant at 425-837-3200.

the lead budget writers of the two chambers. That conversation ended with a greater sense of optimism at the proxim-ity of an accord than at any other point in awhile at least from the perspective of the governor.Schumacher told reporters they were pretty close to an agreement on the level of spending AKA the size of the box.At one point he described it as a tentative agreement if both caucuses go along with the framework put together by negotia-tors.Apparently that characterization deated the buoyant mood and kind of ended Inslees tenure as a potential deal-maker.Schumacher, in the view of lawmakers, committed a major foul by telling reporters about what purportedly transpired behind those closed doors. For all their disagree-

ments, Democrats and Republicans agree there must be a cone of silence on those conversations. Thats why the door is closed.An alternative tale circulating in the rumor mill is the tentative bridge collapsed under the weight of opposition from conservative Republican senators and not anything Schumacher said.Budget oers are continuing to get exchanged between the two chambers. If an accord is reached on how much will be spent in the next two-year budget, the other pieces are supposed to fall into place quickly, budget writers have insisted.Thats where things appear to stand as the threat of a shutdown grows nearer every hour.

You decide to sell your house. You hire a real estate broker to list, prep and show the property. Af-ter an open house, several appointments and several dead ends, it sells.

In the end, the price for service is a percentage commission paid by the seller and split between the sellers and buyers agents. at commis-sion uctuates real estate research group Real Trends reported the aver-age commission at 5.38 percent in 2013 but the standard accepted amount is 6 percent.

Now one local family of real estate profession-als believes its online brokerage can bring that commission down to 1 percent.

Sam Owens, Dee Owens and their son Tim Owens launched ReallyOne.com on May 1 with their eyes on attracting homesellers with a minimal commis-sion rate accomplished by automating processes

like listing on the North-west Multiple Listing Ser-vice and putting sellers in charge of tasks like taking photos and showing their property.

A lot of homeowners love their houses so much they think they can do a better job selling than the listers, CEO Sam Owens said. And the truth is, they know their town, they know their schools and they know things about their community an agent might not.

e process sacri ces real estate standbys like the open house, but Sam said those o en bene t an agent more than a seller.

e idea came from a family breakfast, Sam said. Sam, reading the sports page, looked over the corner of his newspaper to see his two sons on their iPads. He assumed they were playing games or fooling around, but when he asked what they were doing, they told him they were also catching up on the news as many news services as they liked over the Internet. Over time, he

began to wonder whether those same advancements could be applied to real estate, he said.

Sam and Dee enlisted their web-savvy son Tim, now the companys CTO, to build the website.

We were kind of educating them (about real estate) as we educated ourselves, Sam said.

Despite operating as an online business, the Ow-ens have leaned on tradi-tional marketing iers, ads and word-of-mouth to get the word out.

As the business begins, ReallyOne is focused on sales in King County. It could theoretically expand statewide.

But at its commission rate, the Owens will have to do brisk business, Sam said.

Were going to have to sell a lot of volume, he said.

A local musician and music teacher has earned an honorable mention in the International Songwrit-ing Competition for his funny song about a clock.

Now Glenn Lestz will perform e Clock and other songs with his band Pink Camel at Issaquahs Make Music Day, on June 21.

e Clock is a simple, 43-second song just Lestz on vocals accompa-nied by his guitar about a clock found in a trash can.

Lestz had already composed the song in GarageBand, a method he said he uses to keep track of melodies as they come into his head.

But it wasnt until he took a songwriting class at the Kaleidoscope School under Laura Lagerstedt, in 2013, that he developed the lyrics.

Its kind of weird, Lestz said. We were just doing some exercise or other and it came out.

Lestz had his eye on an entry into the Nashville, Tenn.-based International Song Writing Competi-tion. His friends thought the song was funny, so he entered it into the Novelty/Comedy category.

Lestz entered the com-petition alongside roughly 18,000 entrants from 118 countries, split across 22 categories.

ough out of the top three for its category, winning an honorable mention was no small achievement, according to an email from the competi-tions Founder and Director Candace Avery. A spokes-man for the competition con rmed that only 10 entries receive honorable mentions in the novelty/comedy category.

Lestz began playing music in 1965, when he was just a 10-year-old boy watching e Beatles play e Ed Sullivan Show from his living room in Roslyn, New York.

His sister played piano but a teacher deemed

Lestzs ngers too stubby and put him on the ac-cordion.

en, of course, I real-ized guitar was all that, Lestz said.

Music became his life-long obsession. He gradu-ated with a music degree from Queens College and completed management internships with three orchestras, including a stint at the Boston Pops where he coordinated a laser show for composer John Wil-liams.

A er working as arts manager for the Wichita Symphony Orchestra in Kansas, Lestz and his wife moved to the Paci c North-west in 1986 and Lestz went into accounting though he worked for a time with the Seattle Symphony Orchestra.

He began teaching music again, something he had done back east, in 1997.

Lestz will play bass with folk-rock, rhythm and blues band Pink Camel led by Lagerstedt on the Grape Arbor stage at Sunset Way and Front Street during Make Music Day, Issaquahs celebration of International Music Day.

Skyline Spartans senior Kelli Sullivan will pack her bags later this month for a trip of a lifetime more than 5,300 miles from her hometown.

Sullivan, who will play college soccer at Colorado College as a freshman this fall, will compete in the 2015 World University Games soccer extravaganza in Gwangju, South Korea in early July.

e 11-day, 16-team tournament which begins on July 2, will feature incoming freshman, current and recently gradu-ated players from the Colorado College womens soccer team which will represent the United States overseas.

e team will begin pool play with a game against South Africa on July 2 at Honam University Stadium. Sullivan is excited to lace up her cleats with her new teammates against squads from all over the planet in the tourney.

It is a once in a lifetime opportunity. It is really amazing and Im just so lucky to get to do this, Sullivan said. It is pretty incredible to just go to another country and get to watch soccer, let alone play it. It is going to be an incredible experience. I cant wait to do it.

Sullivan is looking forward to playing

with a multitude of her future college teammates in Korea.

It is exciting for me because I will get to play with some of the other recruits (incoming freshman), she said. Most freshman dont get that opportunity until the pre-season starts in August. It is going to be a great thing to start o my college career and get that experience with my teammates early on.

Sullivan is jack-of-all-trades type of player on the soccer eld. Her favorite position is center mid elder, but she has played forward and outside defender in the past.

I try to be versatile and do whatever my coaches need me to do, she said.

Having the chance to continue her soccer career at the collegiate level isnt something Sullivan is taking lightly.

When youre younger you love the game and you want to play it as much as possible. When youre in high school you think about taking that next step to play in college. It is something you kind of dream about, she said. At the end of the day, having the opportunity to do what I love to do for another four years and have the opportunity to be successful is a really great feeling.

Michelle Fowler will play so ball at Pomona CollegeBY SHAUN SCOTTISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

Issaquah Eagles senior tri-captain Michelle Fowler played a pivotal role in her teams success during the 2015 season.

Fowler, who will con-tinue her so ball career at Pomona College in California next season, helped guide her team to a 19-5 overall record during the 2015 season.

Following a 15-4 win against Skyline on May 11, Fowler and her teammates were con dent about their chances of success in the playo s.

Weve had an incred-ible season so far. We have a near perfect record. We are de nitely the team to

beat in our league right now, Fowler said. We want to go as far as we can in the postseason.

e Eagles defeated the Mount Si Wildcats and Bothell Cougars in the playo s but lost to Ingle-moor and the Redmond Mustangs.

e loss against the Mustangs on May 20 eliminated the Eagles from postseason action.

Recently the Issaquah Reporter had an opportu-nity to ask Fowler a few questions about her life away from the so ball eld.
