If you have any questions regarding any of these notifications please contact your studentrsquos school office or the district office at 5093323581
Prior to May 2009 school districts in the State of Washington were re-quired to expend over the life of a school building at least two percent of the buildings value on structure main-tenance regardless if a need existed or not On a forty million dollar high school that would amount to $800000 over the life of the building The re-quired amount did not include cus-todial maintenance or general day to day maintenance effort The target was capital improvements to the building
The problem with the requirement intent was realized in the last two or three years of the building life If any of the designated expenditure remained it had to be applied to the building prior to end of the buildingrsquos life To meet compliance dollars needed to be invested into a building that may be demolished within the next two or three years The penalty for not com-plying was the potential loss of state as-sistance dollars for the construction of a new school building In many cases state assistance will exceed ten million dollars which in turn reduces the fi-nancial support needed from the local
community for the construction of a new school building
Following a lengthy effort by or-ganized committee the 2 rule was abolished Still realizing the need to hold school districts accountable for maintaining buildings the committee established a new method of compli-ance through what is now called the Asset Preservation Program
The Asset Preservation Rule re-placed the 2 Rule and became ef-fective May 28 2009 It applies to all school districts that received state as-sistance for new and new-in-lieu (built new in lieu of modernizing) school buildings accepted by local school di-rectors after December 31 1993 and will want to be eligible for state assis-tance for these buildings in the future
Local school boards must adopt by resolution and implement an As-set Preservation Program The Pull-man School District board of direc-tors and the administration has met the requirements of the program both through resolution and the develop-ment of the processes needed for an-nual compliance
To comply with the program re-quirements staff at Pullman School District needed to conduct initial building evaluations and report the re-sults to the school board and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruc-tion (OSPI) Thereafter it is required that an annual report on the condition of the building be made to the district board and forwarded to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction for approval
For all participating districts every six years during the 30 year life of the building (as establish by OSPI) a certi-fied evaluator must perform a detailed building-condition evaluation and report the results to the local school board and to the Office of Superinten-dent of Public Instruction
The goal driving the Asset Preser-vation Program is the identification of structure condition and need to hold school districts accountable for recti-fying building issues Through the sys-tem now established school districts have purpose and direction for facility condition and responsibility School
buildings must be maintained to a standard determined by professionals in the industry
The Pullman School District board of directors administration and staff are committed to preserving the dis-trictrsquos facilities in a safe healthful and educationally effective manner that is compliant with applicable codes and requirements and meets the standards as set forth by State Legislature and the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction

Gladish Community and Cultural Center Business Directory bull GLADISH is great for Educationhellip Celebrationshellip Performanceshellip and Events Contact us today
Richard ldquoDickrdquo Domey recently received the 2012 Pullman Mayorrsquos Art Award for his many contributions to arts and the community as recommended by the Pullman ArtWalk com-mittee He is a long-time member of Friends of Gladish Board of Directors
In 2003 he was recognized as one of four ldquocommunity treasuresrdquo for work enhancing the Gladish Community and Cultural Center one of Pullmanrsquos homes for the arts including the Washington Idaho Symphony dance studios and more He donated many hours of labor to renovate and modernize the Gladish audito-rium for symphony and other performances
Today the Gladish auditorium is the Richard L Domey Auditorium recognizing his contribu-tions that were way beyond the norm on com-munity service to benefit the arts
The Gladish Community and Cultural Cen-ter provides recreational performing arts and meeting room facilities for the community and maintains low cost facilities for many commu-nity service organizations schools day care providers performing and visual artists youth programs and small businesses
Dick and his wife Diane Gillespie are major supporters of the Washington Idaho Sympho-ny as benefactors and members of the Music Directorrsquos Circle and in particular as sponsors of
the annual Young Artists Concert They are also supporters of the WSU Museum of Art includ-ing the Buy a Busload of Kids program
Dick is also active in theatre 2003 found him directing Pullman Civic Theatrersquos produc-tion of ldquoCat on a Hot Tin Roofrdquo and also doing set design and lighting Most recently he di-rected the 2012 production of ldquoBus Stoprdquo by the Moscow Community Theatre
ldquoI know much much more can be found to recommend Dick as a recipient of the Pullman Mayorrsquos Award for the Artsrdquo his nominator said ldquoBut I believe I have given you enough to show that he is a remarkable artist and supporter of the arts very worthy of this awardrdquo
Since things slow down during the summer at Gladish staff volun-teers and contractors have taken ad-vantage of this time to do some ma-jor remodeling and upgrades in the building Probably the most striking and noticed (at least to women) are the new countertops sinks and baby changing station in the womenrsquos rest-room next to the Auditorium on the first floor The picture tells it all This is primarily due to the master work of the Gladish Maintenance worker Brad Warner
Another remodeling project is the two beautiful tile displays and water fountains inside the Gladish Gym These used to be painted plywood and the new works vastly change the appearance of the gym Much of this work is thanks to Avi Levy of Saunders Interiors and was overseen by Dick Domey and most of the work and material was donated This beautiful work is pictured at right
A major upgrade is the new fire sprinklers that were installed on the first floor and on the Auditorium and Montessori side of the build-ing This was completed by Simplex Grinnell of Spokane The sprinklers in over 10 rooms will add to the safety and protection of the children and other patrons who use Gladish which allows expanded student ca-pacities for Montessori and other child education tenants of the build-ing The photo to the right shows the new sprinklers in one of the Montes-sori classrooms
On June 15th 2004 the Health Journal pub-lished the article Being bilingual protects brainrdquo Later on January 12th 2012 the North West Journal published the aticleBilingual brain effects probed Both articles emphazise scientif-ic findings that learning a second language can boost brain power
Researchers from Northwestern University say bilingualism is a form of brain trainingmdasha mental work out that fine-tunes the mind
Speaking two languages profoundly affects the brain and changes how the nervous system responds to sound lab tests revealed
Experts say the work in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences provides biologi-cal evidence of this
It is important to start as young as possible with a second language Parents that speak an-ther language other than English should be speaking the other language to their children from the beginning
In this way the brain starts recognizing sounds and making a network of connections that grow and evolve with time
Also adults that learned a second language in school or college and did not practice for years are able to reconnect that language net-work with time and practice
Pullman Language offers Spanish classes for adults and children private or small conversa-tion groups Children have the opportunity to be immersed and to learn the Spanish language from a very young age Children learn by play-ing interacting and doing different activities At a young age listening and speaking is very important They do different activities and are exposed to several techniques such as games songs Spanish videos storytelling physical oral and visual exercises to promote and develop lis-tening and speaking skills

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion

First Aid and Food HandlersOur center provides a curriculum
designed to meet the socialemo-tional cognitive and physical needs of all children We believe play is essential to a childrsquos growth and de-velopment Play is a childrsquos way of learning and exploring through his or her world Through play children learn cooperation problem solv-ing mathematics and broader vo-cabulary skills Partnered with our ldquolearning through playrdquo philosophy our classrooms also place a strong emphasis on literacy We also offer music and foreign language taught weekly by a specialist

In accordance with recent chang-es in public law ELS has strength-ened its provision of home-based and community-based services Designed to improve opportunities for infants and toddlers experienc-ing developmental delays the Indi-viduals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) Part C provides structure to Wash-ington Statersquos Early Support for In-fants and Toddlers (ESIT) program ESITrsquos guiding principles based on evidence-based best practices in the field of early intervention recogniz-es that family relationships are the central focus in the lives of infants

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

If you have any questions regarding any of these notifications please contact your studentrsquos school office or the district office at 5093323581
Prior to May 2009 school districts in the State of Washington were re-quired to expend over the life of a school building at least two percent of the buildings value on structure main-tenance regardless if a need existed or not On a forty million dollar high school that would amount to $800000 over the life of the building The re-quired amount did not include cus-todial maintenance or general day to day maintenance effort The target was capital improvements to the building
The problem with the requirement intent was realized in the last two or three years of the building life If any of the designated expenditure remained it had to be applied to the building prior to end of the buildingrsquos life To meet compliance dollars needed to be invested into a building that may be demolished within the next two or three years The penalty for not com-plying was the potential loss of state as-sistance dollars for the construction of a new school building In many cases state assistance will exceed ten million dollars which in turn reduces the fi-nancial support needed from the local
community for the construction of a new school building
Following a lengthy effort by or-ganized committee the 2 rule was abolished Still realizing the need to hold school districts accountable for maintaining buildings the committee established a new method of compli-ance through what is now called the Asset Preservation Program
The Asset Preservation Rule re-placed the 2 Rule and became ef-fective May 28 2009 It applies to all school districts that received state as-sistance for new and new-in-lieu (built new in lieu of modernizing) school buildings accepted by local school di-rectors after December 31 1993 and will want to be eligible for state assis-tance for these buildings in the future
Local school boards must adopt by resolution and implement an As-set Preservation Program The Pull-man School District board of direc-tors and the administration has met the requirements of the program both through resolution and the develop-ment of the processes needed for an-nual compliance
To comply with the program re-quirements staff at Pullman School District needed to conduct initial building evaluations and report the re-sults to the school board and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruc-tion (OSPI) Thereafter it is required that an annual report on the condition of the building be made to the district board and forwarded to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction for approval
For all participating districts every six years during the 30 year life of the building (as establish by OSPI) a certi-fied evaluator must perform a detailed building-condition evaluation and report the results to the local school board and to the Office of Superinten-dent of Public Instruction
The goal driving the Asset Preser-vation Program is the identification of structure condition and need to hold school districts accountable for recti-fying building issues Through the sys-tem now established school districts have purpose and direction for facility condition and responsibility School
buildings must be maintained to a standard determined by professionals in the industry
The Pullman School District board of directors administration and staff are committed to preserving the dis-trictrsquos facilities in a safe healthful and educationally effective manner that is compliant with applicable codes and requirements and meets the standards as set forth by State Legislature and the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction

Richard ldquoDickrdquo Domey recently received the 2012 Pullman Mayorrsquos Art Award for his many contributions to arts and the community as recommended by the Pullman ArtWalk com-mittee He is a long-time member of Friends of Gladish Board of Directors
In 2003 he was recognized as one of four ldquocommunity treasuresrdquo for work enhancing the Gladish Community and Cultural Center one of Pullmanrsquos homes for the arts including the Washington Idaho Symphony dance studios and more He donated many hours of labor to renovate and modernize the Gladish audito-rium for symphony and other performances
Today the Gladish auditorium is the Richard L Domey Auditorium recognizing his contribu-tions that were way beyond the norm on com-munity service to benefit the arts
The Gladish Community and Cultural Cen-ter provides recreational performing arts and meeting room facilities for the community and maintains low cost facilities for many commu-nity service organizations schools day care providers performing and visual artists youth programs and small businesses
Dick and his wife Diane Gillespie are major supporters of the Washington Idaho Sympho-ny as benefactors and members of the Music Directorrsquos Circle and in particular as sponsors of
the annual Young Artists Concert They are also supporters of the WSU Museum of Art includ-ing the Buy a Busload of Kids program
Dick is also active in theatre 2003 found him directing Pullman Civic Theatrersquos produc-tion of ldquoCat on a Hot Tin Roofrdquo and also doing set design and lighting Most recently he di-rected the 2012 production of ldquoBus Stoprdquo by the Moscow Community Theatre
ldquoI know much much more can be found to recommend Dick as a recipient of the Pullman Mayorrsquos Award for the Artsrdquo his nominator said ldquoBut I believe I have given you enough to show that he is a remarkable artist and supporter of the arts very worthy of this awardrdquo
Since things slow down during the summer at Gladish staff volun-teers and contractors have taken ad-vantage of this time to do some ma-jor remodeling and upgrades in the building Probably the most striking and noticed (at least to women) are the new countertops sinks and baby changing station in the womenrsquos rest-room next to the Auditorium on the first floor The picture tells it all This is primarily due to the master work of the Gladish Maintenance worker Brad Warner
Another remodeling project is the two beautiful tile displays and water fountains inside the Gladish Gym These used to be painted plywood and the new works vastly change the appearance of the gym Much of this work is thanks to Avi Levy of Saunders Interiors and was overseen by Dick Domey and most of the work and material was donated This beautiful work is pictured at right
A major upgrade is the new fire sprinklers that were installed on the first floor and on the Auditorium and Montessori side of the build-ing This was completed by Simplex Grinnell of Spokane The sprinklers in over 10 rooms will add to the safety and protection of the children and other patrons who use Gladish which allows expanded student ca-pacities for Montessori and other child education tenants of the build-ing The photo to the right shows the new sprinklers in one of the Montes-sori classrooms
On June 15th 2004 the Health Journal pub-lished the article Being bilingual protects brainrdquo Later on January 12th 2012 the North West Journal published the aticleBilingual brain effects probed Both articles emphazise scientif-ic findings that learning a second language can boost brain power
Researchers from Northwestern University say bilingualism is a form of brain trainingmdasha mental work out that fine-tunes the mind
Speaking two languages profoundly affects the brain and changes how the nervous system responds to sound lab tests revealed
Experts say the work in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences provides biologi-cal evidence of this
It is important to start as young as possible with a second language Parents that speak an-ther language other than English should be speaking the other language to their children from the beginning
In this way the brain starts recognizing sounds and making a network of connections that grow and evolve with time
Also adults that learned a second language in school or college and did not practice for years are able to reconnect that language net-work with time and practice
Pullman Language offers Spanish classes for adults and children private or small conversa-tion groups Children have the opportunity to be immersed and to learn the Spanish language from a very young age Children learn by play-ing interacting and doing different activities At a young age listening and speaking is very important They do different activities and are exposed to several techniques such as games songs Spanish videos storytelling physical oral and visual exercises to promote and develop lis-tening and speaking skills

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion
Thank YouA special thank you goes to the 2012

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho
At Sears Academy of Dance ballet is recognized as the fundamental building block of all dance forms
and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances
ldquoI am continually amazed by the young dancers at our studio It is impressive to see how quickly they learn in an environment that is both well-structured and nurturing It is my belief that the dedication and confidence they learn at dance extends beyond the classroom into all aspects of their school personal and extracurricular activitiesrdquomdashAna Maria Sears director and owner of Sears Academy
To celebrate the completion of their recent ex-pansion Sears Academy is offering a Back to School Promotion where all new dancers receive free dance clothing and shoes For more information on dance programs at Sears Academy or to enroll your child call 509-332-8965 or contact Chrissy Shelton at asksears1gmailcom

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

If you have any questions regarding any of these notifications please contact your studentrsquos school office or the district office at 5093323581
Prior to May 2009 school districts in the State of Washington were re-quired to expend over the life of a school building at least two percent of the buildings value on structure main-tenance regardless if a need existed or not On a forty million dollar high school that would amount to $800000 over the life of the building The re-quired amount did not include cus-todial maintenance or general day to day maintenance effort The target was capital improvements to the building
The problem with the requirement intent was realized in the last two or three years of the building life If any of the designated expenditure remained it had to be applied to the building prior to end of the buildingrsquos life To meet compliance dollars needed to be invested into a building that may be demolished within the next two or three years The penalty for not com-plying was the potential loss of state as-sistance dollars for the construction of a new school building In many cases state assistance will exceed ten million dollars which in turn reduces the fi-nancial support needed from the local
community for the construction of a new school building
Following a lengthy effort by or-ganized committee the 2 rule was abolished Still realizing the need to hold school districts accountable for maintaining buildings the committee established a new method of compli-ance through what is now called the Asset Preservation Program
The Asset Preservation Rule re-placed the 2 Rule and became ef-fective May 28 2009 It applies to all school districts that received state as-sistance for new and new-in-lieu (built new in lieu of modernizing) school buildings accepted by local school di-rectors after December 31 1993 and will want to be eligible for state assis-tance for these buildings in the future
Local school boards must adopt by resolution and implement an As-set Preservation Program The Pull-man School District board of direc-tors and the administration has met the requirements of the program both through resolution and the develop-ment of the processes needed for an-nual compliance
To comply with the program re-quirements staff at Pullman School District needed to conduct initial building evaluations and report the re-sults to the school board and the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruc-tion (OSPI) Thereafter it is required that an annual report on the condition of the building be made to the district board and forwarded to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction for approval
For all participating districts every six years during the 30 year life of the building (as establish by OSPI) a certi-fied evaluator must perform a detailed building-condition evaluation and report the results to the local school board and to the Office of Superinten-dent of Public Instruction
The goal driving the Asset Preser-vation Program is the identification of structure condition and need to hold school districts accountable for recti-fying building issues Through the sys-tem now established school districts have purpose and direction for facility condition and responsibility School
buildings must be maintained to a standard determined by professionals in the industry
The Pullman School District board of directors administration and staff are committed to preserving the dis-trictrsquos facilities in a safe healthful and educationally effective manner that is compliant with applicable codes and requirements and meets the standards as set forth by State Legislature and the Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction

Gladish Community and Cultural Center Business Directory bull GLADISH is great for Educationhellip Celebrationshellip Performanceshellip and Events Contact us today
Richard ldquoDickrdquo Domey recently received the 2012 Pullman Mayorrsquos Art Award for his many contributions to arts and the community as recommended by the Pullman ArtWalk com-mittee He is a long-time member of Friends of Gladish Board of Directors
In 2003 he was recognized as one of four ldquocommunity treasuresrdquo for work enhancing the Gladish Community and Cultural Center one of Pullmanrsquos homes for the arts including the Washington Idaho Symphony dance studios and more He donated many hours of labor to renovate and modernize the Gladish audito-rium for symphony and other performances
Today the Gladish auditorium is the Richard L Domey Auditorium recognizing his contribu-tions that were way beyond the norm on com-munity service to benefit the arts
The Gladish Community and Cultural Cen-ter provides recreational performing arts and meeting room facilities for the community and maintains low cost facilities for many commu-nity service organizations schools day care providers performing and visual artists youth programs and small businesses
Dick and his wife Diane Gillespie are major supporters of the Washington Idaho Sympho-ny as benefactors and members of the Music Directorrsquos Circle and in particular as sponsors of
the annual Young Artists Concert They are also supporters of the WSU Museum of Art includ-ing the Buy a Busload of Kids program
Dick is also active in theatre 2003 found him directing Pullman Civic Theatrersquos produc-tion of ldquoCat on a Hot Tin Roofrdquo and also doing set design and lighting Most recently he di-rected the 2012 production of ldquoBus Stoprdquo by the Moscow Community Theatre
ldquoI know much much more can be found to recommend Dick as a recipient of the Pullman Mayorrsquos Award for the Artsrdquo his nominator said ldquoBut I believe I have given you enough to show that he is a remarkable artist and supporter of the arts very worthy of this awardrdquo
Since things slow down during the summer at Gladish staff volun-teers and contractors have taken ad-vantage of this time to do some ma-jor remodeling and upgrades in the building Probably the most striking and noticed (at least to women) are the new countertops sinks and baby changing station in the womenrsquos rest-room next to the Auditorium on the first floor The picture tells it all This is primarily due to the master work of the Gladish Maintenance worker Brad Warner
Another remodeling project is the two beautiful tile displays and water fountains inside the Gladish Gym These used to be painted plywood and the new works vastly change the appearance of the gym Much of this work is thanks to Avi Levy of Saunders Interiors and was overseen by Dick Domey and most of the work and material was donated This beautiful work is pictured at right
A major upgrade is the new fire sprinklers that were installed on the first floor and on the Auditorium and Montessori side of the build-ing This was completed by Simplex Grinnell of Spokane The sprinklers in over 10 rooms will add to the safety and protection of the children and other patrons who use Gladish which allows expanded student ca-pacities for Montessori and other child education tenants of the build-ing The photo to the right shows the new sprinklers in one of the Montes-sori classrooms
On June 15th 2004 the Health Journal pub-lished the article Being bilingual protects brainrdquo Later on January 12th 2012 the North West Journal published the aticleBilingual brain effects probed Both articles emphazise scientif-ic findings that learning a second language can boost brain power
Researchers from Northwestern University say bilingualism is a form of brain trainingmdasha mental work out that fine-tunes the mind
Speaking two languages profoundly affects the brain and changes how the nervous system responds to sound lab tests revealed
Experts say the work in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences provides biologi-cal evidence of this
It is important to start as young as possible with a second language Parents that speak an-ther language other than English should be speaking the other language to their children from the beginning
In this way the brain starts recognizing sounds and making a network of connections that grow and evolve with time
Also adults that learned a second language in school or college and did not practice for years are able to reconnect that language net-work with time and practice
Pullman Language offers Spanish classes for adults and children private or small conversa-tion groups Children have the opportunity to be immersed and to learn the Spanish language from a very young age Children learn by play-ing interacting and doing different activities At a young age listening and speaking is very important They do different activities and are exposed to several techniques such as games songs Spanish videos storytelling physical oral and visual exercises to promote and develop lis-tening and speaking skills

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion

First Aid and Food HandlersOur center provides a curriculum
designed to meet the socialemo-tional cognitive and physical needs of all children We believe play is essential to a childrsquos growth and de-velopment Play is a childrsquos way of learning and exploring through his or her world Through play children learn cooperation problem solv-ing mathematics and broader vo-cabulary skills Partnered with our ldquolearning through playrdquo philosophy our classrooms also place a strong emphasis on literacy We also offer music and foreign language taught weekly by a specialist

In accordance with recent chang-es in public law ELS has strength-ened its provision of home-based and community-based services Designed to improve opportunities for infants and toddlers experienc-ing developmental delays the Indi-viduals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) Part C provides structure to Wash-ington Statersquos Early Support for In-fants and Toddlers (ESIT) program ESITrsquos guiding principles based on evidence-based best practices in the field of early intervention recogniz-es that family relationships are the central focus in the lives of infants

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Gladish Community and Cultural Center Business Directory bull GLADISH is great for Educationhellip Celebrationshellip Performanceshellip and Events Contact us today
Richard ldquoDickrdquo Domey recently received the 2012 Pullman Mayorrsquos Art Award for his many contributions to arts and the community as recommended by the Pullman ArtWalk com-mittee He is a long-time member of Friends of Gladish Board of Directors
In 2003 he was recognized as one of four ldquocommunity treasuresrdquo for work enhancing the Gladish Community and Cultural Center one of Pullmanrsquos homes for the arts including the Washington Idaho Symphony dance studios and more He donated many hours of labor to renovate and modernize the Gladish audito-rium for symphony and other performances
Today the Gladish auditorium is the Richard L Domey Auditorium recognizing his contribu-tions that were way beyond the norm on com-munity service to benefit the arts
The Gladish Community and Cultural Cen-ter provides recreational performing arts and meeting room facilities for the community and maintains low cost facilities for many commu-nity service organizations schools day care providers performing and visual artists youth programs and small businesses
Dick and his wife Diane Gillespie are major supporters of the Washington Idaho Sympho-ny as benefactors and members of the Music Directorrsquos Circle and in particular as sponsors of
the annual Young Artists Concert They are also supporters of the WSU Museum of Art includ-ing the Buy a Busload of Kids program
Dick is also active in theatre 2003 found him directing Pullman Civic Theatrersquos produc-tion of ldquoCat on a Hot Tin Roofrdquo and also doing set design and lighting Most recently he di-rected the 2012 production of ldquoBus Stoprdquo by the Moscow Community Theatre
ldquoI know much much more can be found to recommend Dick as a recipient of the Pullman Mayorrsquos Award for the Artsrdquo his nominator said ldquoBut I believe I have given you enough to show that he is a remarkable artist and supporter of the arts very worthy of this awardrdquo
Since things slow down during the summer at Gladish staff volun-teers and contractors have taken ad-vantage of this time to do some ma-jor remodeling and upgrades in the building Probably the most striking and noticed (at least to women) are the new countertops sinks and baby changing station in the womenrsquos rest-room next to the Auditorium on the first floor The picture tells it all This is primarily due to the master work of the Gladish Maintenance worker Brad Warner
Another remodeling project is the two beautiful tile displays and water fountains inside the Gladish Gym These used to be painted plywood and the new works vastly change the appearance of the gym Much of this work is thanks to Avi Levy of Saunders Interiors and was overseen by Dick Domey and most of the work and material was donated This beautiful work is pictured at right
A major upgrade is the new fire sprinklers that were installed on the first floor and on the Auditorium and Montessori side of the build-ing This was completed by Simplex Grinnell of Spokane The sprinklers in over 10 rooms will add to the safety and protection of the children and other patrons who use Gladish which allows expanded student ca-pacities for Montessori and other child education tenants of the build-ing The photo to the right shows the new sprinklers in one of the Montes-sori classrooms
On June 15th 2004 the Health Journal pub-lished the article Being bilingual protects brainrdquo Later on January 12th 2012 the North West Journal published the aticleBilingual brain effects probed Both articles emphazise scientif-ic findings that learning a second language can boost brain power
Researchers from Northwestern University say bilingualism is a form of brain trainingmdasha mental work out that fine-tunes the mind
Speaking two languages profoundly affects the brain and changes how the nervous system responds to sound lab tests revealed
Experts say the work in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences provides biologi-cal evidence of this
It is important to start as young as possible with a second language Parents that speak an-ther language other than English should be speaking the other language to their children from the beginning
In this way the brain starts recognizing sounds and making a network of connections that grow and evolve with time
Also adults that learned a second language in school or college and did not practice for years are able to reconnect that language net-work with time and practice
Pullman Language offers Spanish classes for adults and children private or small conversa-tion groups Children have the opportunity to be immersed and to learn the Spanish language from a very young age Children learn by play-ing interacting and doing different activities At a young age listening and speaking is very important They do different activities and are exposed to several techniques such as games songs Spanish videos storytelling physical oral and visual exercises to promote and develop lis-tening and speaking skills

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Today the Gladish auditorium is the Richard L Domey Auditorium recognizing his contribu-tions that were way beyond the norm on com-munity service to benefit the arts
The Gladish Community and Cultural Cen-ter provides recreational performing arts and meeting room facilities for the community and maintains low cost facilities for many commu-nity service organizations schools day care providers performing and visual artists youth programs and small businesses
Dick and his wife Diane Gillespie are major supporters of the Washington Idaho Sympho-ny as benefactors and members of the Music Directorrsquos Circle and in particular as sponsors of
the annual Young Artists Concert They are also supporters of the WSU Museum of Art includ-ing the Buy a Busload of Kids program
Dick is also active in theatre 2003 found him directing Pullman Civic Theatrersquos produc-tion of ldquoCat on a Hot Tin Roofrdquo and also doing set design and lighting Most recently he di-rected the 2012 production of ldquoBus Stoprdquo by the Moscow Community Theatre
ldquoI know much much more can be found to recommend Dick as a recipient of the Pullman Mayorrsquos Award for the Artsrdquo his nominator said ldquoBut I believe I have given you enough to show that he is a remarkable artist and supporter of the arts very worthy of this awardrdquo
Since things slow down during the summer at Gladish staff volun-teers and contractors have taken ad-vantage of this time to do some ma-jor remodeling and upgrades in the building Probably the most striking and noticed (at least to women) are the new countertops sinks and baby changing station in the womenrsquos rest-room next to the Auditorium on the first floor The picture tells it all This is primarily due to the master work of the Gladish Maintenance worker Brad Warner
Another remodeling project is the two beautiful tile displays and water fountains inside the Gladish Gym These used to be painted plywood and the new works vastly change the appearance of the gym Much of this work is thanks to Avi Levy of Saunders Interiors and was overseen by Dick Domey and most of the work and material was donated This beautiful work is pictured at right
A major upgrade is the new fire sprinklers that were installed on the first floor and on the Auditorium and Montessori side of the build-ing This was completed by Simplex Grinnell of Spokane The sprinklers in over 10 rooms will add to the safety and protection of the children and other patrons who use Gladish which allows expanded student ca-pacities for Montessori and other child education tenants of the build-ing The photo to the right shows the new sprinklers in one of the Montes-sori classrooms
On June 15th 2004 the Health Journal pub-lished the article Being bilingual protects brainrdquo Later on January 12th 2012 the North West Journal published the aticleBilingual brain effects probed Both articles emphazise scientif-ic findings that learning a second language can boost brain power
Researchers from Northwestern University say bilingualism is a form of brain trainingmdasha mental work out that fine-tunes the mind
Speaking two languages profoundly affects the brain and changes how the nervous system responds to sound lab tests revealed
Experts say the work in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences provides biologi-cal evidence of this
It is important to start as young as possible with a second language Parents that speak an-ther language other than English should be speaking the other language to their children from the beginning
In this way the brain starts recognizing sounds and making a network of connections that grow and evolve with time
Also adults that learned a second language in school or college and did not practice for years are able to reconnect that language net-work with time and practice
Pullman Language offers Spanish classes for adults and children private or small conversa-tion groups Children have the opportunity to be immersed and to learn the Spanish language from a very young age Children learn by play-ing interacting and doing different activities At a young age listening and speaking is very important They do different activities and are exposed to several techniques such as games songs Spanish videos storytelling physical oral and visual exercises to promote and develop lis-tening and speaking skills

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho
At Sears Academy of Dance ballet is recognized as the fundamental building block of all dance forms
and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances
ldquoI am continually amazed by the young dancers at our studio It is impressive to see how quickly they learn in an environment that is both well-structured and nurturing It is my belief that the dedication and confidence they learn at dance extends beyond the classroom into all aspects of their school personal and extracurricular activitiesrdquomdashAna Maria Sears director and owner of Sears Academy

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

6 Pullman Community UPDATE September 2012city of Pullman
With the start of a new school year it is important to think about safety for kids and drivers Here are a few reminders
KidsmdashAlways cross the street at corners or crosswalks and obey the crossing guardrsquos instructions Whenever possible walk with friends There is strength in numbers and a group is more visible than a single pe-destrian Stay on sidewalks and do not cut through yards or alleys NEVER accept rides or get into the car with people you do not know
ParentsmdashWalk the approved route to school with your child before school starts You can assess potential hazards and pick a route with the fewest number of street crossings ensuring that the route is safe Also yoursquoll know where to start looking for your child if there is a problem while walk-ing to or from school Discuss with your child safe places to go for help like trusted adultsrsquo homes school and businesses Discuss what to do if an unknown adult tries to get your child to come into his or her vehicle or house or grabs them Your child should say ldquoNordquo scream for help fight back if grabbed get to a safe place and tell a trusted adult and call 911 Know who your kidrsquos friends
are and where they live Keep a list of ad-dresses and phone numbers handy Keep older kids active and involved in activities because studies show that after-school hours are the most likely time when teens get into trouble or try drugs
DrivingmdashBe aware of children walking and riding bicycles to school and use caution Take extra care to look out for children not
only in school zones but also in residential areas and around playgrounds and parks Do not drive around school buses when the overhead lights are flashing red and the ldquoSTOPrdquo sign is out Use caution around tran-sit buses as well Pullman Transit transports school children Children walking to or from their bus are usually very comfortable with their surroundings This makes them more likely to take risks ignore hazards or fail to look both ways when crossing the street Obey crossing guards Always stop when directed to do so by a school crossing guard Be alert Young pedestrians are the most difficult to see and are very unpredictable
NeighborsmdashKeep an eye out for suspi-cious people or drivers who seem to be pay-ing attention to children walking or at play Report any older kids who are fighting or engaging in other illegal activities in parks and alleys before and after school Keep sidewalks clear of debris or obstacles for pedestrians
The start of a new school year is an excit-ing and busy time for families It is up to all of us to be safe and watch out for kids
Particularly when school is in ses-sion vegetation that overhangs side-walks or areas where people walk can be a problem for pedestrians By law the area which must be cleared of overhanging vegetation is seven feet in height above the surface of a paved walkway located in a public street right-of-way In addition all vegetation on the surface of walk-ways whether growing or dead must be removed or destroyed when it ob-structs the publicrsquos full and free use of the sidewalk or pedestrian clearance area
Please do your part to help the city to keep its pedestrian walkways free of debris and clear of obstacles Con-tact the city of Pullman at 338-3300 if you notice areas that require atten-tion
Thank YouA special thank you goes to the 2012

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho

and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances

The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

First Aid and Food HandlersOur center provides a curriculum
designed to meet the socialemo-tional cognitive and physical needs of all children We believe play is essential to a childrsquos growth and de-velopment Play is a childrsquos way of learning and exploring through his or her world Through play children learn cooperation problem solv-ing mathematics and broader vo-cabulary skills Partnered with our ldquolearning through playrdquo philosophy our classrooms also place a strong emphasis on literacy We also offer music and foreign language taught weekly by a specialist

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho

and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

First Aid and Food HandlersOur center provides a curriculum
designed to meet the socialemo-tional cognitive and physical needs of all children We believe play is essential to a childrsquos growth and de-velopment Play is a childrsquos way of learning and exploring through his or her world Through play children learn cooperation problem solv-ing mathematics and broader vo-cabulary skills Partnered with our ldquolearning through playrdquo philosophy our classrooms also place a strong emphasis on literacy We also offer music and foreign language taught weekly by a specialist

At Pullman Christian Childcare Center we believe in the value of providing a Christ-centered atmo-sphere where children can explore Godrsquos world experience His love and learn principles for everyday living Our goal is to lay a solid spiri-tual social emotional physical and academic foundation that will help shape them into successful and re-sponsible adults We endeavor to develop the whole child and seek to prepare them for success in the up-coming years of formal education We promote and teach Biblical val-ues such as forgiveness respect re-sponsibility honesty and obedience In addition to teaching children new academic skills through age-appropriate curriculum relational skills are taught from an early age to help them express their needs and feelings in words develop manners show empathy and learn to share and take turns
Additionally each staff mem-berrsquos lifestyle is based on Biblical
standards of conduct reflecting the Biblical perspective of integrity and appropriate relationships business conduct and moral behavior The staff at PCCC is selected based on vocational qualifications in addi-tion to qualifications based on their overall character Teachers have an educatorrsquos mindset and are passion-ate about making a difference in the lives of young children Our goal is to partner with parents as their child grows and learns about the world around them By regular communi-cation between staff and parents we are dedicated to helping parents feel connected with their childrsquos devel-opment Our desire is to be a ldquohome away from homerdquo and to nurture each child in an environment where they feel secure valued and loved for how God made them Call Cas-si Fitzgerald at 509-332-3545 or e-mail cassifpullmanchristian-childcarecom for more informa-tion or to set up a tour

A Big Thank You to All Our Festival Volunteers
It takes an army to put on the biggest party of the Palouse We extend a big thank you to all who made the National Lentil Fes-tival possible And thanks to the many spon-sors who helped put on the biggest party on the Palouse You make a difference in your community and we hope you had fun
Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho
At Sears Academy of Dance ballet is recognized as the fundamental building block of all dance forms
and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances
ldquoI am continually amazed by the young dancers at our studio It is impressive to see how quickly they learn in an environment that is both well-structured and nurturing It is my belief that the dedication and confidence they learn at dance extends beyond the classroom into all aspects of their school personal and extracurricular activitiesrdquomdashAna Maria Sears director and owner of Sears Academy
To celebrate the completion of their recent ex-pansion Sears Academy is offering a Back to School Promotion where all new dancers receive free dance clothing and shoes For more information on dance programs at Sears Academy or to enroll your child call 509-332-8965 or contact Chrissy Shelton at asksears1gmailcom

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

A Note from the CEOOver the last few months I have greatly enjoyed hav-
ing the opportunity to introduce myself to the com-
munity as the new executive director and CEO of the
YMCA at WSU I am in awe of all of the resources and
support that our available to families in our commu-
nity I have been inspired by the passionate and com-
munity-minded student volunteers staff and Board of
Directors that drive our programs
The Yrsquos unique model serves both college students
and the greater community by engaging student vol-
unteers in programs that support children families
and individuals with special needs Through student
involvement with YMCA programs Washington State
University and University of Idaho students develop
leadership skills and a commitment to community ser-
vice Student volunteers participate in our academic
mentoring program and supporting children in after
school care Student volunteers are also involved in
supporting Whitman Countyrsquos Special Olympics as
well as the Young Athletes Program we operate

First Aid and Food HandlersOur center provides a curriculum
designed to meet the socialemo-tional cognitive and physical needs of all children We believe play is essential to a childrsquos growth and de-velopment Play is a childrsquos way of learning and exploring through his or her world Through play children learn cooperation problem solv-ing mathematics and broader vo-cabulary skills Partnered with our ldquolearning through playrdquo philosophy our classrooms also place a strong emphasis on literacy We also offer music and foreign language taught weekly by a specialist

Changes have come to the face of Early Learning Services As the primary provider of Birth to Three Early Intervention Services in Whit-man County for over 40 years ELS serves more than 50 infants and tod-dlers with special needs in Whitman County each year
In accordance with recent chang-es in public law ELS has strength-ened its provision of home-based and community-based services Designed to improve opportunities for infants and toddlers experienc-ing developmental delays the Indi-viduals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) Part C provides structure to Wash-ington Statersquos Early Support for In-fants and Toddlers (ESIT) program ESITrsquos guiding principles based on evidence-based best practices in the field of early intervention recogniz-es that family relationships are the central focus in the lives of infants
and toddlers and that young chil-dren learn best through everyday experiences with familiar people in familiar settings (natural environ-ments) Functional outcomes are measured based on childrenrsquos ability to use social emotional skills to ac-quire knowledge and to use appro-priate behaviors to meet daily needs
As a result expect to see our team members spending more time working with children where they typically spend their days For more information about the services our team of professionals (Early Child-hood Special Educators Physical Therapists Speech Therapists Oc-cupational Therapists and Family Resources Coordinators) can pro-vide to families please contact us at (509) 332-4420 stop by our office in the Gladish Community and Cul-tural Center Suite 106 or email Sue at suek-elspullmancom

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho
At Sears Academy of Dance ballet is recognized as the fundamental building block of all dance forms
and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances
ldquoI am continually amazed by the young dancers at our studio It is impressive to see how quickly they learn in an environment that is both well-structured and nurturing It is my belief that the dedication and confidence they learn at dance extends beyond the classroom into all aspects of their school personal and extracurricular activitiesrdquomdashAna Maria Sears director and owner of Sears Academy

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Sears Academy of Dance began as a recreation-al dance program in a small room at the Gladish Community Cultural center in 2005 Seven year later it has grown into a comprehensive dance school located in a three-thousand square foot facility complete with profes-sional-grade flooring ballet barres mirrors and sound systems Ana Maria Sears di-rector and owner of Sears Academy offers both a Recreational Dance program as well as a more progressive dance pro-gram in which dancers audition to be placed on Dance Companies Members of both Recreation and Company groups perform in bi-annual recitals most recently held at the Jones Theatre on the WSU campus Company dance members have the oppor-tunity to perform at athletic events in the Pullman community such as Pullman High School and WSU Menrsquos basketball halftimes Distinguished Young Woman programs and local talent shows In addi-tion Senior Company members have the oppor-tunity to perform at the Spotlight Dance Cup and Kids Artistic Review competitions held annually in Coeur drsquoAlene Idaho
At Sears Academy of Dance ballet is recognized as the fundamental building block of all dance forms
and is the main emphasis in both dance programs In addition dancers get to explore tap jazz lyrical hip hop and contemporary dance styles In all class-
es at Sears Academy the goal is to create the perfect combination of discipline and fun Dancers are taught to set individual goals but are aware of the role they play in the success of their group performances
ldquoI am continually amazed by the young dancers at our studio It is impressive to see how quickly they learn in an environment that is both well-structured and nurturing It is my belief that the dedication and confidence they learn at dance extends beyond the classroom into all aspects of their school personal and extracurricular activitiesrdquomdashAna Maria Sears director and owner of Sears Academy
To celebrate the completion of their recent ex-pansion Sears Academy is offering a Back to School Promotion where all new dancers receive free dance clothing and shoes For more information on dance programs at Sears Academy or to enroll your child call 509-332-8965 or contact Chrissy Shelton at asksears1gmailcom

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

The Pullman Walk of Fame program sponsored by the Pullman Chamber of Commerce is back with a new manufac-tured stone product that has been approved by Pullman City Council New inductees were honored again this year during the National Lentil Festival Aug 17-18
The Walk of Fame was established in 2003 to honor individuals who have served the Pullman community in a significant way promoted goodwill improved the quality of life for Pullman residents or brought acclaim to the area through their contributions Commemorative granite plaques bearing the names of these individ-uals have been installed in the sidewalks of downtown Pullman After the installation of the 2008 plaques Pullman City Council asked the Pullman Chamber of Commerce to stop the program due to complaints about the slickness of the tiles when wet The program started back up in 2011 with the approval of the new product
ldquoThe plaques have all been replaced and the committee is continuing fundraising effortsrdquo said Fritz Hughes former Cham-ber Director and Walk of Fame committee chair
The cost for each stone is approximately $300 and includes installation fees Cost for the yearly granite plaques has been paid for by Pullman Civic groups including the Pull-man Lions Kiwanis Rotary Club and the Chamber of Commerce Those groups will continue to pay for new plaques as they are added The brainchild behind the program Duane Brelsford Jr paid for a large por-
tion of plaques at its inception For infor-mation on the program or for financial con-tributions contact the Pullman Chamber of Commerce
The tradition continued this year with three new inductees to the Walk of Fame program

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

A Note from the CEOOver the last few months I have greatly enjoyed hav-
ing the opportunity to introduce myself to the com-
munity as the new executive director and CEO of the

support that our available to families in our commu-
nity I have been inspired by the passionate and com-
munity-minded student volunteers staff and Board of

unteers in programs that support children families

vice Student volunteers participate in our academic

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

By Ashlee Eskelsen Dietetic and Masterrsquos of Science Student University of Idaho
Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout
With this information you are ready to start running Consider signing up for a fun fall race such as the annual Summit Pumpkin Dash held on October 6th Categories in-clude the mile 5K and 3-mile relay family participation is encouraged Awards are given for the best costumes and pumpkins are provided for every participant age 12 and un-der Proceeds benefit the YMCArsquos Special Olympics and Young Athletes programs in Pullman Find the registration form on-line at wwwpullmanregionalorg or call Summit Therapy (5093325106) for more information

Today I got out my old clarinet I hadnrsquot played it for maybe thirty years Itrsquos still in its worn oversized brown-leather case with two pennant stickers on it from high school (UMD Honor Band rsquo60 and rsquo61) Therersquos also a round yellow sticker added later from the Association of University Women It says ldquoOnly she who attempts the absurd can achieve the impossiblerdquo What did that say about my future musi-cal career Although the key word is ldquoat-temptsrdquo from my present vantage point as an emeritus English professor not a pro-fessional musician ldquoabsurdrdquo and ldquoimpos-siblerdquo stand out Clearly I channeled my university ldquoattemptsrdquo elsewhere Still my old clarinet holds fond memories of con-cert and marching band pep band orches-tra woodwind quartet and quintet of solo competitions and summer band camps of the year our high school band brought down the house with ldquoFinlandiardquo by Sibel-ius and the year we got the Best Marching Band award in the Minneapolis Aquaten-nial Parade
This clarinet is not the ebonite one a cousinrsquos hand-me-down I had in fifth
grade Itrsquos a better wooden instrument marked ldquoNoblet Parisrdquo My late parents achievement-oriented children of immi-grants saved to buy it for me when I was in junior high school did well at my music lessons and had a younger sister in need of the used one I still have a 1958 photo of our ninth grade concert band onstage at Cloquet (MN) High School There I am holding my new wooden clarinet leading the section Unbeknownst to me then I was preparing for a future off-stage as an appreciative and supportive member of a concert audience
Do you as one of our symphony-page readers and audience members have old memory-triggering musical-group pho-tos (from before 1970) tucked away some-where If you bring one by the downtown office (Flat Iron Building) of our Board Treasurer Carmel Minogue she will scan them for possible future inclusion on this page Include your name and where you are in the photo your musical instrument and the date and place Wishing you good musical memories and as your Symphony begins its 41st season wonderful new ones

Have you ever crossed the finish line in a race What an exhilarating experience Yet the accomplishment is not just the race but all the work leading up to it
Running has many benefits some of which may include improved cardiovascular health bone health and mood as well as better maintenance of weight and coordination Run-ning is convenient inexpensive and a great way to explore new places Just put on your running shoes and go
If you are just starting to run begin with timed inter-vals (1-2 minutes) of walking and running As you become comfortable and your body adapts extend the time of the intervals until you are completing a continuous run When starting you can choose to run with a friend listen to music and even sign up for a race Make running a habit like brush-ing your teeth
To improve running performance apply proper nutrition and hydration principles Carbohydrates are the most impor-tant source of calories for runners Whole grain bread pasta rice quinoa fruits and vegetables are good options Lean protein and fat including omega-3 fats from fish are also part of a healthy diet Since water is imperative in the bodyrsquos functions a good hydration status should be maintained throughout the day Stay hydrated by drinking an estimated 8 cups of fluid a day and checking your urine Clear urine with minimal odor means yoursquore hydrated
Eating before and after a run will give you the energy you need Aim to have a small meal or a snack 1-2 hours prior to a run and a snack mainly of carbohydrates within 30-45 min-utes after completing a run Post-run nutrition allows you to restore your energy reserves for your next workout

Welcome to Pullman Regional Hospital BirthPlace where new families receive the finest in care from a ma-ternity unit with national recognition in patient satis-faction scores
In a recent survey Pullman Regional Hospitalrsquos BirthPlace maternity unit was ranked in the top 98 percentile and third in overall patient satisfaction out of 149 maternity units nationwide
Dennise Stannard Director of Pullman Regional Hospital BirthPlace and Amber Roberts Assistant Di-rector said this level of patient satisfaction is because of an exceptional staff ldquoWe are honored and proud to be part of the BirthPlace team They consistently exceed expectationsrdquo said Stannard
The annual survey was conducted by HealthStream a healthcare training and survey company that has partnered with Pullman Regional Hospital since April 2010 to conduct patient satisfaction surveys to help im-prove clinical and business outcomes
Marie Erickson Pullman Regional Hospital Birth-Place administrative assistant and Certified Nurs-ing Assistant said that this is a pleasant surprise for BirthPlace and a huge accomplishment for Pullman Regional Hospital ldquoWe work hard to make sure our patientsrsquo needs come first and provide a comfortable atmosphere where they are able to feel at homerdquo said Erickson
Erickson a 20-year employee of Pullman Regional Hospital said the staff at BirthPlace is incredibly pas-sionate about what they do not just for new moms but for the entire family
ldquoKnowing that out of 113 patients surveyed 91 gave us a nine or 10 on a scale of zero to 10 shows the dedication this staff has and encourages us to work that much harder in the futurerdquo Erickson said
Pullman Regional Hospitalrsquos BirthPlace is constantly upgrading services and amenities to make sure expect-ing mothers and their babies get the best care New ser-
vices offered in BirthPlace include massage therapy for pregnant mothers as well as post-birth physical therapy
For newborns infant massage classes offered by li-censed massage practitioner Jill Herbold are provided to help parents bond with their infants in addition to helping increase infant circulation and digestion im-prove sleep patterns and reduce symptoms of gas and colic
Post-birth physical therapy is also offered by Cheryl Rudd certified physical therapist with Pullman Re-gional Hospitalrsquos Summit Therapy and Health Services to support new mothers recovery from childbirth Ses-sions include assistance in relieving lower back pelvis and abdominal pain muscle training for bladder con-trol and helping with cesarean section scar and muscle management
Although Pullman Regional Hospital is always look-ing for upgraded conveniences its traditional Birth-Place services are still emphasized throughout the pregnancy and delivery of expecting mothers
Education classes come in all shapes and sizes and cater to the patientrsquos schedule Class options include Childbirth 101 a seven-week course designed to pre-
pare the expecting mother and her partner for the physical and emotional aspects of childbirth a one-time refresher childbirth class designed for parents who have experienced a previous prepared birth or a weekend childbirth workshop which is a condensed version of the Prepared Childbirth course offered on two full Saturdays
Services specific to Pullman Regional Hospital are 24-hour phone access to registered nurses available to answer questions and concerns newborn counseling and education a complimentary diaper bag handmade baby hats and booties (knitted and donated by Pullman Regional Hospital Auxiliary members) and product samples along with pre and post-delivery visits
To maintain the close-knit culture of community at Pullman Regional Hospital overhead chimes an-nouncing every babyrsquos birth can be heard throughout the entire hospital All babies born at Pullman Region-al receive baby book footprints a beaded baby name bracelet and their first picture
Not only are expecting mothers a priority at Pullman Regional but family members can enjoy the spacious family suites which includes a pullout bed microwave refrigerator TV and DVD player table chairs and desk with free Internet access To celebrate the arrival of the newest family member a complimentary gourmet meal for three or an ice-cream cake that serves up to 10 is just another additional touch
Amber Roberts Assistant Director of BirthPlace said making sure patients receive top care is second na-ture for the staff of Birthplace ldquoOur staff takes the time to go above and beyond This is something they all do every day with every shift and with every patient The staff in BirthPlace is wonderful they have worked hard to earn an exceptional reputationrdquo said Roberts

A Note from the CEOOver the last few months I have greatly enjoyed hav-
ing the opportunity to introduce myself to the com-
munity as the new executive director and CEO of the
YMCA at WSU I am in awe of all of the resources and
support that our available to families in our commu-
nity I have been inspired by the passionate and com-
munity-minded student volunteers staff and Board of
Directors that drive our programs
The Yrsquos unique model serves both college students
and the greater community by engaging student vol-
unteers in programs that support children families
and individuals with special needs Through student
involvement with YMCA programs Washington State

leadership skills and a commitment to community ser-
vice Student volunteers participate in our academic
mentoring program and supporting children in after
school care Student volunteers are also involved in
supporting Whitman Countyrsquos Special Olympics as
well as the Young Athletes Program we operate

terschool programs academic tutoring and men-
toring and summer day camp
