Student shift Elementary schools to change
attendance boundaries for 2016By CAROL LADWIG
Editor
Two meetings this week should help Snoqualmie Valley School District staff finalize plans for pop-ulating its sixth elementary school, now under construction. The meet-ings, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, at North Bend Elementary School, and 6:30 p.m. Wednesay, Oct. 21, at the Mount Si High School Freshman Campus, will cover the two elementary school boundary change proposals, Options B2 and C2, now being considered by the school district.
Both meetings are informational, says Jeff Hogan, district co-superinten-dent. Community members will have further opportunities to raise concerns with the school board through surveys and at the board’s Oct. 29 meeting. Neither of this week’s meetings are expected to be contentious,
“When we’re adding a school, these (processes) are pretty quiet,” Hogan said. “When we’re not adding schools, it’s tougher.”
The new 31-classroom elementary school, located on Snoqualmie Ridge is set to open next fall. It will draw students from three of the five exist-ing elementary schools in the district, and four of the five schools will see some change as a result of the new boundaries.
“One of the criteria was to have stu-dents attend school in the cities where they live,” Hogan explained.
Currently, about 600 of the 1,150 students who live on Snoqualmie Ridge are being bused to Fall City, North Bend and Snoqualmie Elementary Schools. Under both of the new boundary proposals, about 500 of them will be within the new school’s attendance boundaries.
Roughly 100 students from Fall City Elementary, 200 from Snoqualmie Elementary and 200 from North Bend Elementary will attend the new school next fall. Another 100 stu-dents will be added to the North Bend Elementary boundaries from Opstad Elementary, to allow addi-tional capacity at Opstad for expect-ed growth.
Snoqualmie Elementary School will remain the district’s largest elemen-tary, both in capacity and population, Hogan said.
A committee of staff, including the district’s transportation manager and several elementary school principals, has been meeting weekly for several months to develop the attendance boundary proposals. They initially considered five proposals, but last week narrowed the field to two.
The committee will present its rec-ommendation to the school board at its Oct. 29 meeting and the board is expected to adopt the new boundaries at a special meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 4.
For more information on the bound-ary review process, visit the school dis-trict’s website, www.svsd410.org.
Name the new school Naming a school is neces-sary, but challenging, say Snoqualmie Valley School District officials. As they pre-pare to begin the nomination process for naming the district’s sixth elementary school, they have worked to avoid the many pitfalls that can come with a specific name, such as Cascade View Elementary, which shares a name with schools in Snohomish and Tukwila.The rules for the process are few. Anyone can suggest, or nominate, a name, via the district’s online survey or at the district office. There is no limit to the number of suggestions, but to be considered, names must be significant to the area, not conflict with other place names, and not include a person’s name. The nomination process will begin Nov. 9. School board members will review the suggestions Dec. 6 and each will select up to three names. Their choices will be announced as the finalists, and more feedback gathered. The vote on the name is expected on Jan. 28.

Options B2, above, and C2 are the top two selections of five boundary change proposals under consideration for the district’s transition from five elementary schools to six. A sixth school, 71,000 square feet, is now under construction and scheduled to open next fall.

“I thought there must be a better way to raise money that’s more team-building, fitness-oriented and just a great experience for everyone involved,” Eastwood said.
Cindy Conlon, vice presi-dent of fundraising for the PTSA, was happy with the way the event turned out.
“It’s been really easy and fun and it’s been very well received by both kids and parents,” Conlon said.
Thursday’s fun run wasn’t the only day for fundrais-ing. Working with Orange Ruler, participants were able to start taking donations online in the weeks leading up to the run.
“Everything is done online so parents can see things live,
real-time updates. I think that was a huge part of the success.” Reul-Shapiro said.
Eastwood said a lot of the organization of these of events comes down to finding volunteers — a typi-cal event takes 800 to 1,500 volunteer hours. This year the Snoqualmie Elementary PTSA was able to more than double its previous fund-raising record.
The fun run itself is more of a celebration for all of the work the kids did.
“Today is just kind of a celebration of all (the stu-dents’) hard fundraising efforts,” Reul-Shapiro said. “As far as our fundraising goes we have never brought in more than about $40,000 and we are currently at $83,000 and money is still coming in.”
Candidates were asked if they felt the criticism was warranted and what they would do to improve that aspect of the commission.
Weaver, the only can-didate present who was not currently on the commission, could not speak to the past, but said increased transparency could be easily achieved with improved advocacy in the community.
Speikers said he has appointed two people to help on the finance com-mittee which is “headed in the right direction” to improve communication.
Roberts said the trans-parency issues stem from years past and the current board is trying to be as transparent as they can.
Young called out the pub-lic, stating they have pub-lic board meetings every month at city hall that are poorly attended.
“I’d love to see anybody there,” she said.
Circling back to finances, the candidates were then asked about their strate-gic vision to deal with the thin margins of the medical business.
Speikers, Roberts, and Young all felt similarly, stating the majority of the hospital’s user base doesn’t
pay because they are on Medicare and Medicaid. Roberts said they need to look into a strategy that will take the hospital to a “fee for service” model and that this is a common con-cern with hospitals. Weaver spoke about possible affilia-tions with other healthcare providers and changing the entire reimbursement structure.
On the topic of com-munity outreach and mar-keting the hospital, the candidates agreed letting people know about the new hospital is important and is something the current board is trying to address. Weaver suggested events and lunch-and-learns to bring more people into the facilities and Speikers sug-gested looking for grants that could help fund out-reach projects.
The final question of the forum addressed the rela-tionship between board members, the board and the leadership team.
Roberts described the board’s past working rela-tionship as tumultuous, but said he has been an impor-tant contributor to bring-ing the relationships “from hostile to amicable.” Young agreed with Roberts’ asser-tion that the board has a better working relationship than in years prior, but said not all the board members are totally respectful of oth-ers, creating some issues.
Speikers said his position on the finance committee had been one of the most heated areas of disagreement for years, but now people were working together and focusing on issues.
As the self-proclaimed “outsider” on the panel,
Weaver said from his expe-rience, the board’s relation-ship could be described as “cautious tension,” and while it has improved, it seems as though they are “in a mode of ‘fake it till you make it.’”
He also said that in his career in management, he creates strong work-ing environments and he would be able to do that for the hospital board.
A Si View Metro Parks Commission candidate forum was also scheduled at the luncheon. Only Susan Kelly participated.

Snow sports celebs star at museum opening
On Saturday, Oct. 10, the Washington State Ski and Snowboard Museum held its grand opening with 13 Olympians in attendance.
Located directly across from the Summit Inn on the Snoqualmie Pass, the museum is home to many exhibits detailing the his-tory of snow sports and how they have evolved.
David Moffett, president of the museum, said the grand opening was a suc-cess, with hundreds of peo-ple showing up to see the new exhibits and the spe-cially invited Washington Olympians.
“It was fabulous, we had about 300 people there,” Moffett said. “We had 13 Olympians which was pret-
ty amazing, and we had a lot of donors.”
Some of the Olympians at the grand opening included World Cup skier Judy Nagel, gold medal-ist Deborah Armstrong, and Phil and Steve Mahre, brothers regarded as some of the best skiers of their time.
Moffett explained that the museum is aiming to be a more lively, interactive place through the use of digital content in exhibits.
“It’s a very informative museum, we have eight monitors that tell stories, most are touch screens,” Moffett said.
Having a digital compo-nent to the museum also enables staff to change up the content regularly to make it a fresh experience for repeat visits, he added. The exhibits on display are not just a history of snow sports, but also a look at how these sports have evolved
and the accomplishments of Washington athletes.
Exhibits include a 1940s-style rope tow that runs across the whole muse-um, a booth about the his-tory of skiing gear, Nordic skiing traditions, and a booth for the Outdoors for All Foundation, which helps bring skiing opportunities to people with disabilities.
Moffett’s personal favor-ite is the awards display that showcases Washington athletes’ achievements over the years, like Mahre’s World Cup and Armstrong’s Olympic gold medal.
The museum is open from 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Fridays through Sundays. The museum is staffed by volunteers, including three from North Bend. Moffett said the museum is look-ing for more volunteers. Contact him at the museum at (425) 434-0826, or visit more at www.wsssm.org.

Debate club grows numbers, demos talents
By EVAN PAPPASStaff Reporter
While most students get nervous or scared by the prospect of public speak-ing, the debate team competes in it. The Mount Si Speech and Debate team, a very successful club at Mount Si High School, hosted a public showcase debate to raise money to travel to tournaments, raise awareness and possibly attract more stu-dents to the club on Tuesday.
Two teams of two debated on a topic set by the National Speech and Debate Association. Lauren Zinkan, treasurer of the club, explained. The discussion prompt they debated relates to the refugee crisis in Europe.
“In response to the current refugee crisis, a government should prioritize the humanitarian needs of refugees over its national interests.” Zinkan read.
Dana Korssjoen, co-president, said the club is using the showcase to help get people to notice them and to show how the debate process works.
“Basically what we are doing with that event is we are trying to get a lot of com-munity visibility and we want to open debate up to the rest of the community in hopes that they see what’s going on here and what kind of a change it can make for people,” Korssjoen said.
Ruary Thompson, co-president, said the club started small, but grew exponen-tially in a short time. Current member-ship is 73.
“It grew over 1,000 percent,” Thompson said. “We started with four members two years ago, membership has gone up expo-nentially.”
Korssjoen thinks that the club’s con-sistent success at tournaments has made more people interested in joining than ever before.
“Last year we got first and second in state, we had two teams go to nationals, myself and Ruary, and two people who graduated. We did really well at all the national tournaments we competed at,”
Korssjoen said, noting that at one event, Zinkan was named first speaker from all of the students competing. “We had a lot of success and it has spread via word of mouth.”
Thompson said the team has never per-formed poorly at a tournament. In fact, they usually bring back some sort of acco-lade from every tournament they attend.
According to him, the showcase also was a practice session for the upcoming tournament season and as a lesson for the new members of the club.
“All the new members get to come and watch, so everything that they’ve been learning gets contextualized with an actu-al debate,” Thompson said.
Korssjoen, Thompson and Zinkan all agreed that joining the speech and debate club was one of the best decisions they’ve made.
“If there is one thing that I could take away from this, it’s that all the accom-plishments are great, but what debate does for you as a person and the things it teaches you are things that are really hard to learn if you don’t have that experience. You are doing all this research and trying to find both sides of something that you might not agree on. It really opens up your mind as a person and it really allows you to put all those thoughts into one area and be able to say what you think.” Zinkan said.
“I think debate is the best decision I’ve ever made,” Thompson said.
“Yeah, I second that,” Zinkan said.Korssjoen agreed. “I third that.”

ews Retain Roberts
for hospital commissioner
As a former Air Force officer, fighter pilot, Vietnam prisoner of war and international commer-cial airline pilot, I know the importance of leadership. Unfortunately, we don’t appear to have enough of that in our country today. That’s why I’m asking you to retain Ryan Roberts as com-missioner of King County Public Hospital District 4, position 3.
As a graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, a former fighter pilot who has served his country in combat, and Navy veteran, Ryan has already proven himself as a leader.
He brings the skills and expertise required of an officer in today’s modern Navy into the demands and rigors of managing complex business processes and has done so successfully in the health care industry for the last eight years.
We are so fortunate to have such a dynamic, intel-ligent and qualified young man to serve on this board.
It is an honor and privi-lege to ask you to join me in voting for Ryan Roberts for commissioner.

Herron is challenging wrong opponent
In the Snoqualmie Valley Hospital District race for position 3, between Emma Herron and Ryan Roberts, I was dismayed by impli-cations raised in the local voter’s guide.
Herron notes the dis-trict is “deeply in debt” and laments the 2012 decision to sell the old hospital to the Snoqualmie Tribe at a 50 percent discount. While I agree these decisions were unsound, Herron is run-ning against the wrong commissioner.
The decision to accept the discounted purchase price from the Snoqualmie Tribe was made in June 2012. Decisions to incur substan-tial debt date back to the mid-2000’s. The district incurred further debt on the new hospital.
If Herron disagrees with these decisions, why doesn’t she run against David Speikers in Position 1 or Joan Young in Position 5? Speikers has been on the board since 2006 and Young since 1999, when the debt was incurred. Both voted in
favor of the discounted sale of the hospital.
Roberts became a com-missioner in May 2014. He has worked to establish fiscal accountability and responsibility. His career is advising the healthcare industry in risk manage-ment. Roberts also under-stands the need for this new hospital to expand patient care by improving quality of healthcare provided.
Herron and the commu-nity would be better served by her running against the commissioners who per-petrated the decisions she opposes.
Roberts stands apart by actively engaging in steps to fix prior mismanage-ment, place the district on sound financial footing, and ensure the district advances the interests of patients and taxpayers.
As I agree with all of these actions, I will vote for Roberts.

Bilanko understands government
We whole-heartedly endorse Judy Bilanko for North Bend City Council. Judy brings applicable knowl-edge and skills from her work as Public Information Officer for the city of Wenatchee, 15 years in banking and her cur-rent position on the city parks commission.
She understands city gov-ernment, budgeting and finance. She is smart, knowl-edgeable, and an outstanding communicator. She follows through on responsibilities.
Her statements at the can-didate forums have shown that she does her home-work, analyzes topics and develops realistic proposals for issues such as growth, infrastructure, downtown revitalization and affordable housing.
She demonstrates con-cern for making responsi-ble financial decisions. For example, Judy recommends more affordable approaches to full downtown revital-ization, rather than a bond issue for the historical block which her opponent rec-ommends and which may benefit his own business. She has no personal agen-das other than serving the entire city.
Judy is recently retired and has stated she will devote whatever time is needed to be prepared and present at the multiple meetings each month required to compe-tently conduct city business.
We are confident Judy will be an excellent council member. We will vote for
her and recommend others do the same.

Experience makes Bilanko the right choice
I strongly endorse Judy Baker Bilanko for North Bend City Council posi-tion 7. Judy will bring a rare combination of skills to the position. Her career in banking and as a city public information officer provide direct knowledge of municipal government and finance.
Her family history and roots in the Valley provide historical perspective. She is currently an active member on our parks commission.
Judy has unwavering integrity, high intelligence, and excellent communica-tion skills, with a dash of humor appropriate for the situation. She is analytical, organized and fulfills her commitments.
Effective council mem-bers devote much time and effort to the job. There are seven or eight scheduled meetings per month (three for council, two for commit-tees and two or three liaison groups), plus meetings with staff and constituents.
For committed mem-bers, those meetings involve time, preparation, reading and research. Judy won’t be out of the city when busi-ness needs to be done. She will be prepared and at the table.
Judy’s substantive responses at the recent
candidate forums reflected the in-depth thinking and background work she uti-lizes to become familiar with city issues, study the city budget and understand the legal constraints which determine what cities can and cannot do regarding issues such as housing developments, impact fees and timing of infrastruc-ture improvements. She offers reasoned and finan-cially feasible solutions.
Judy’s opponent pro-motes a major project in the block where his busi-ness is located. Judy has no special interest other than the betterment of the entire city.

Kelly will bring wealth of experience
I encourage you and your readers to vote for Susan W. Kelly for Si View Metro Parks Commission, Position 5.
Having worked closely with Susan on the com-mission, I can attest to her sharp, community-forward mindset.
Many of our district’s successes can, in one way, shape or form, find a thread back to her incredible con-tribution.
She brings a tremendous wealth of experience and passion back to the com-mission. Susan knows the board, the topics and issues that need to be addressed,

...obituariesRuth Martha Grew
Former Snoqualmie Valley resident Ruth Grew died September 3, 2015 at her home in Maple Valley, WA, at age 88. Ruth lived in North Bend for more than 50 years.
Ruth was born to Alex and Martha Scha� er, February 9, 1927 in Sinneringen, Bern, Switzerland. Growing up, she loved long walks with her parents and brother Hugo.
Ruth learned to play the accordion at an early age. She acted and sang in local plays, landing the lead role in “Vreneli,” a highlight of her young adult years.
She graduated from a 3-year business college, Kantonale Handelsschule Bern, served an apprenticeship at Kaiser AG, and worked at � rms in Zurich and Bern.
Ruth met Snoqualmie Valley native William Grew, when Bill visited his aunt in the fall of 1949 in Stettlen, Switzerland. Living next door to Bill’s aunt, 22-year-old Ruth Scha� er caught Bill’s eye. Bill and Ruth married November 24, 1949 in Stettlen. Shortly afterward, Ruth traveled with her husband back to America. For years they made their home on the family dairy farm in North Bend, which today is known as the Nintendo property. Bill and Ruth were blessed with three sons while living on the farm. In 1959 the Grews moved into town, and Ruth gave birth to a daughter in 1960. The family was most important to Ruth and Bill.
After the kids grew older, Ruth landed the � rst job she applied for in America, as a librarian with Snoqualmie Valley School District. She started at Fall City Elementary for a couple years, then spent 17 years at North Bend Elementary. Ruth and Bill participated in many Swiss cultural events in the western U.S.; Ruth also performed solo gigs in Washington state, playing her accordion and yodeling.
Upon retirement Ruth and Bill enjoyed traveling, gardening, and spending time together on Vashon Island, where they built a vacation home in the 1980s.
In 1992 Bill lost his life to cancer. Ruth’s faith in God kept her strong through her heartbreaking loss. She made her � nal trip to Switzerland in 2008 when she attended her 65-year high school class reunion. In recent years Ruth continued her love of knitting, reading, writing, and trying out new recipes. She was active on Facebook and had fun reconnecting with many of her former library students.
Ruth is survived by her children, William; Hugh (Ingrid); Daryl; Shirley; and granddaughter Alyssa.
A memorial celebration will take place Sunday, October 25, at 1:30 pm at the Meadowbrook Interpretive Center. The family suggests remembrances be made to the Snoqualmie

Peterson is dedicated to cityThe November election for Snoqualmie City Council
includes one of the most dedicated Snoqualmie citizens that I know of. I served on the council for two terms in the 1970s with then-mayor Charles Peterson. In that time, Snoqualmie grew from the classification of “town” to the city it now is.
I think the citizens of Snoqualmie are lucky to have a choice of good, experienced candidates running for office but I believe Charles Peterson is the man for the job. He will rep-resent both historic Snoqualmie and the Ridge with equality.
Ed Wentz
Snoqualmie
Peterson has unmatched knowledge on city issues
I am writing to encourage the citizens of Snoqualmie to re-elect Charles Peterson to Snoqualmie City Council. Charles has devoted his life to the service of this city and we are very fortunate that he is willing to continue.
I had the pleasure of serving on the council with Charles for nearly 10 years. He is an exemplary public official who is intelligent, honest, hard-working and truly devoted to all of the citizens of Snoqualmie. His knowledge of the city, its development, its politics and its history are unmatched on the city council or in the administration. He brings all of his knowledge and his research skills to bear on his decisions. He encourages deep and thoughtful discussions that make full council decisions better. With nearly half of the current council new in their positions, it is very important to retain Charles’ experience, dedication and historical knowledge to support the new members.
Charles is known all over the region as a very well respected public official. He is endorsed by five current Snoqualmie City Councilors, an incoming councilor, sev-eral former Snoqualmie City Councilors, the Mayor of North Bend and representatives of the North Bend City Council, numerous Snoqualmie city commission and board members, and many other community leaders and citizens. Charles is a man of integrity and an extremely valuable resource to this city and the region.
I urge you to join me in voting to re-elect Charles Peterson to the Snoqualmie City Council.

What started as a proj-ect for the U.S. bicenten-nial celebration became a massive effort involv-ing thousands of people that would improve the Tolt-MacDonald park for decades.
John MacDonald, bank-er, Navy veteran of World War II and volunteer for the Seattle Council of Boy Scouts of America, had a development idea for a
park and campground that had been acquired by King County in 1964.
Alan Sinsel, King County Parks District Maintenance Coordinator, explained that a notice from the pres-ident to the Boy Scouts of America is what spawned the idea in MacDonald.
“During the Nixon administration, he put out a notice to Boy Scouts to do projects for the (United States’) bicentennial,” Sinsel said.
A campground had
already been built on the Carnation park, but the area on the west side of the property had not been developed. Developing that portion of the park was MacDonald’s brainchild.
He wanted a bridge that could connect the two sides of the park, split by the Snoqualmie River, and found help in com-pleting the project from the Army Reserves’s 40th Engineering Company,

A Valley TraditionMount Si GC has been a Snoqualmie Valley tradition since the 1920’s when the land was transformed from a hops farm into a golf course. It became an 18-hole public course in the 1930’s. In 1958,1985, and 1994 the course under-went signi� cant changes and has evolved into a popular public golf course. The restaurant saw changes to its outside and inside looks in the late 2000’s and continues to serve excellent food along with a smile.

which worked on the approximately 500-foot suspension bridge. He also organized all the Boy Scouts in the greater Puget Sound area, approximately 20,000 of them, and over a four-month period, they cleared the land, built campsites, shelters, cabins, and an amphitheater that are still there today.
The bridge was the Army Reserve’s job, but they didn’t have much experi-ence in building suspen-sion bridges so they went up to Canada and got help
from some of the armed forces there who had expe-rience in building that type of project.
MacDonald was able to bring together a massive amount of people to work together on this commu-nity project, but was unable to see the result of all the work they had done.
“Unfortunately, he had a heart attack and died on May 10, 1976, weeks before the project was finished,” Sinsel said.
The park was named the “Tolt-MacDonald Park and Campground” when the project was finished in June, 1976.
Years later, one of MacDonald’s sons was vol-unteering at a King County Parks event and got in
touch with them to share some of the historic pho-tos and newspaper clip-pings that his family had recorded and kept for over 30 years.
On June 26, 2011, the 35th anniversary of the development’s comple-tion, King County Parks held a rededication to cel-ebrate the work that John MacDonald, the Army Reserve and the Boy Scouts did all those years ago.
“We rededicated the campground to him and to bring awareness to the project because the history had been lost.” Sinsel said.
Many of MacDonald’s
family attended the event along with King County representatives like Dow Constantine and Kathy Lambert, and about 200 Boy Scouts.
In fact, according to Sinsel, King County Executive Dow Constantine
was one of the Scouts who helped out on the project.
Today, the bridge is kept up-to-date with annual inspections and has seen some improvements as recently as 2014 where additional support weights were added to each side.

The Snoqualmie Valley has always had a historic connection to the movies. From the era of the silent film to today’s modern era, the local theaters have always played an important part in the Valley.
Due to the collec-tion of Valley history in the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum and
the hard work and research of David Battey, recording secretary for the museum board, the history of these theaters has been preserved. Almost all the information available on these theaters was recorded by Battey.
Battey has written several articles about the history of the Valley’s theaters since the early 1900s. The Valley had three major theaters: the Sunset Theater, the
Pictureland Theater, and Brook Theater.
Cristy Lake, assistant director at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum, said the Sunset Theater was built into an existing Snoqualmie building that is now Sigillo Cellars in Snoqualmie.
“The Sunset Theater is still around,” Lake said. “It was repurposed as a town hall and fire hall, then it was
the union hall for years, and then Christine purchased it and restored it as Mignone and then it’s been several business since then.”
In 1923, the Brook Theater, built by William and Geneva Cochrane on the Northeast corner of Meadowbrook Way and Park Street in Snoqualmie, opened.
The Brook was the larg-est and most luxurious of the theaters in the area. It
could seat over 400 people, had cushioned seats and the newest movie screens and projection technology. Over $20,000 (roughly $280,000 in 2015 value) was put into the building’s development.
These theaters showed the latest silent movies with
live music accompaniments by a pianist and a violinist.
According to Battey, E.W. Sandell, the owner of both the Sunset and Pictureland theaters, sold both the-aters to the Cochranes in

late 1923 due to the huge competition the Brook had brought to the Valley.
“The guy that started the two silent movies before the Brook, he just kinda disap-peared back to Issaquah and then the Brook folks bought him out. So they had all three,” Battey said.
In the late 1920s, sound was introduced to the world of movies. The two com-peting technologies, the Vitaphone and Movietone systems, were both installed in the Brook so the selec-tion of movies wasn’t cut off. Battey described these systems as reminiscent to format wars we have seen in the last couple decades.
“It is kind of fun when they started the talkies. It was like VHS vs Beta,” He said. “There were two ways to show talkies and they had to pay to have both of those systems installed in the Brook Theater.”
The Brook saw a lot of suc-cess when it started showing “talkies,” but this new tech-nology made the Sunset and Pictureland theaters large-ly irrelevant as they were still limited to silent films. Due to the recession, which started in 1929, both the-aters were closed in 1930 so the Cochranes could focus on the Brook Theater.
Battey gathered much of his information from Cochranes’ corporate records for his research into the business behind the the-aters in the 20s.
“If you are going to waste money when you have none, a movie ticket is an absolute wonderful indi-cator of how much spare change there was in the Valley, so I thought that was amazing to find all of the corporate books of the Cochrane Motion Pictures Corporation, including the closing down of Pictureland and Sunset and the begin-nings of Brook, all there,” Battey said. “It was just amazing.”
The Cochranes ran the Brook Theater until the 1940s when they sold it. The theater eventually closed its doors in the 1960s.
But that was not the end of movies in the Valley. In 1941, the North Bend Theater opened. It is still standing in the same spot and is still open for busi-ness.
Lake said having three theaters in such a close range to each other really showed how important that kind of entertainment was to people. The fact that the North Bend Theater is still standing and in good condi-tion after 74 years is a testa-ment to the hard work and passion the community has
for the history of the Valley.“I think it’s very cool we
had three theaters in a rela-tively small community,” Lake said. “To me that shows it was a huge community draw that so many people were able to go and sustain three theaters. Of course the Depression hit and two of them closed, but I think it’s really significant that with-in two miles of each other there were three theaters. It’s really rare that there is a historic theater intact today and we are lucky to have that in our community.”

One of the oldest institutions in the Valley is also in charge of preserving its history. The Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum was started in the early 1900s by Ada Hill, a school teacher in North Bend.
Cristy Lake, assistant director at the Snoqualmie Valley Historical Museum, explained that through Hill’s work, the Valley gained an important organization.
“She started collecting things from the pioneers who were the parents of the kids she had in her class and over time the collection grew,” Lake said. “By the ‘60s it was filling the whole classroom and the school. The baby boom had happened and the school needed the classroom space so they asked Hill to remove the
stuff from the school and at that point, the historical society was formed to help take care of the collection.”
Since then the museum has been obtaining historical artifacts through a mixture of purposeful collecting and donations from people in the Valley. Lake said that over time the museum’s collec-tion has narrowed in subject to better focus on the region it is in.
“Originally the museum had a much broader mission that it does now. We focus specifically on Snoqualmie Valley now,” Lake said.
“When Hill started the collection it was Washington State and Pacific Northwest pioneer history. So parts of our collection are better represented than other parts.”

The Fall City Historical Society has begun an exten-sive effort to provide histor-ic signs for many locations in town. A template has been designed, for overall cohesiveness of the signage, and development of signs for the Fall City Masonic Hall and the Neighbor-Bennett House, both on the National Register of
Historic Places, is under way.
Each sign will include a QR code, the familiar pattern seen many places these days, allowing mobile devices to access informa-tion. On the sign, the code will link to a more exten-sive report on the location, with additional background and images. These reports
will reside on the Fall City Historical Society’s website, www.fallcity.org/historical.
The historical society is also considering making site information available in a GPS-linked format for mobile devices, such as the Stqry app.
This project, and many other programs from the society are supported in part by King County Heritage 4Culture.
Walking tours will be offered soon. When a wide range of background infor-mation has been assem-bled, an updated Fall City Walking Tour will be made available, both in printed and digital form. Volunteers are being recruited to serve as tour guides at times.
Another guided tour, of the Fall City Cemetery, is also being developed.
Coming upThe annual Fall City
Calendar for 2016 is now available, the 10th in the series and the second in full color. It is available for purchase at the Farmhouse Market and will be featured with other ‘History in your Hand’ items at the Fall City Holiday Market Dec. 5 at Chief Kanim Middle School.
