Fourteen Shoreline firefighters completed the 69 floor climb of the Columbia Center and donated $10,000 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

This was 69 floors, 1,356 steps and 788’ in elevation. This is in full gear which adds a minimum of 50 extra pounds.

Teams from all over Washington state participated, as well as multiple teams from Canada, Idaho, Montana, and Oregon. Also represented were the states of California, Alaska, Nevada, Wyoming, Utah, Texas and more.

The registration for the event is capped at 2,000 individuals and fills up early every year.

The funds raised to date this year are over $2 million. You can still donate to the Shoreline team here.

This was the 32nd year for the event, which was started by a Shoreline fire captain, David Engler, (see his story here) who made his first climb in full gear in 1990 and challenged other firefighters to join him in 1992.

North Seattle resident deals with kidney disease with persistence and optimism

Saturday, March 11, 2023

Julia Sterkovsky at home in the garden
By Steve Winter and Cynthia Flash

Julia Sterkovsky has spent 25 years advocating for equity and fairness for people in Seattle and King County through the Seattle Human Services Coalition. It’s a challenging job that has kept her deeply engaged in local communities. 

All the while, the North Seattle resident also had to deal with kidney disease. 

Although she received a donor kidney in 2001, it has since decreased function and she now also has to do dialysis treatments to clean the waste and water from her blood because her kidneys can no longer fully perform that function.

In her job, Sterkovsky champions fundamental causes of bringing resources and support to undeserved communities, including early childhood education, youth development, food, shelter, and housing, community healthcare, services for seniors, advocacy, as well as domestic violence and sexual assault response and prevention. 

Although kidney disease adds more pressure to life, she said, “the choice of how to deal with it is yours. If you want to live, these are your choices.”

March is National Kidney Month, a time to focus on kidney disease and its causes. Sterkovsky hopes that her story helps educate others that they have options for living well with kidney disease, which affects one in 10 American adults. 

Risks include diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, smoking, and family history of kidney disease. Those who are African American, Asian American or Native American, people who are overweight, and those over age 60 are at higher risk for developing kidney disease.

Sterkovsky is one of small percentage of people with kidney disease who can’t point to a specific cause for her disease. However, her mother had nearly the same experience at the same early age, so an unknown genetic cause is the obvious suspect. Her mother received dialysis treatments at home in Ohio in the 1970s.

Brian and Julia Sterkovsky
While some dialysis patients receive treatments in a clinic, Sterkovsky has chosen to do peritoneal dialysis, which can be done at home or work– usually with the help of a partner. 

Sterkovsky is lucky to have her husband Brian to help with the logistics of her care.

Sterkovsky learned how to give herself dialysis treatments at Northwest Kidney Centers, a nonprofit dialysis provider that serves 2,000 patients a year in 19 dialysis centers and eight hospitals in the Puget Sound region, including the Lake City clinic in Lake Forest Park

She said the ins-and-outs of learning how to give herself dialysis treatments reminded her of learning to drive. 

She recalled “being in driver’s education class with all sorts of new information being thrown at you, and then actually driving with so many things to track on the road and on the dashboard. And then a week later it seems like you can remember to do all of those things pretty easily. It becomes second nature.”

Sterkovsky is ready to receive another transplanted kidney. She has been on the waitlist for more than four years; she waited two years the first time in 2001. The average wait time for a kidney transplant is three to five years.

True to form, she is persistent and optimistic. 

In fact, Sterkovsky has thought of a way to address the long wait periods for donor organs. Her idea could be accomplished with a simple change on driver’s license applications. The change would require people to opt out of being an organ donor rather than having to opt in. 

While families would still retain the final say regarding organ donations, this fundamental change could profoundly impact the large number of people waiting for donated kidneys as well as those in need of other organs. More than 90% of people waiting for organ transplants are waiting for kidneys.

Whether one is a patient, a donor, or neither, everyone can take steps to improve their kidney health. Tips include:
  • Following prescribed treatments to control diabetes and/or high blood pressure.
  • Eating a kidney-friendly diet (low or no salt). Look here for a kidney-friendly diet and recipes or attend an Eating Well, Living Well class to learn how to eat a kidney-healthy diet. See classes at https://www.nwkidney.org/living-with-kidney-disease/classes/.
  • Staying active through exercise that is enjoyable.
  • Avoiding overuse of over-the-counter pain medicines or prescription medicines.

Jersey Mike's Subs donates all sales on March 29, 2023 to Seattle Children's Hospital

Jersey Mike's Shoreline in Aurora Village

Seattle Children’s Hospital is joining forces with 46 Jersey Mike’s Subs in the Seattle-Tacoma area for the 13th Annual March “Month of Giving” campaign to support local charities. 

During the month of March, customers can make a donation at participating Jersey Mike’s restaurants.

The Month of Giving campaign will culminate with Jersey Mike’s “Day of Giving” on Wednesday, March 29, 2023 when local Jersey Mike’s restaurants will give 100 percent of the day’s sales – not just profit – to Seattle Children’s Hospital.

On Day of Giving, local Jersey Mike’s owners and operators throughout the country will donate their resources and every single dollar that comes in to more than 200 different charities including hospitals, youth organizations, food banks and more.

This March, Jersey Mike’s hopes to exceed last year’s record-breaking national fundraising total of $20 million and help local charities striving to fulfill their missions and make a difference.

“I would like to extend a personal invitation to you and your family to visit Jersey Mike’s Subs throughout the month of March, and especially on Day of Giving when 100 percent of sales – every penny – goes to help a great local cause,” said Peter Cancro, Jersey Mike’s founder and CEO, who started the company when he was only 17 years old.

Throughout March, customers can make donations through the Jersey Mike’s mobile app or onsite. On Day of Giving, Jersey Mike’s restaurants will donate every single dollar that comes in – whether in-store, on-line or through the app.

Since Month of Giving began in 2011, Jersey Mike’s has raised more than $67 million for local charities.

Firefighters from Shoreline Fire who will be participating in the LLS Firefighter Stairclimb will be in Lake Forest Park on Saturday to raise funds on behalf of their team for the Lymphoma and Leukemia Society (LLS).

The Shoreline team has already done one fundraiser at the Town and Country Market in Shoreline. Their second one is this Saturday March 4, 2023, beginning at 8:30am at Lake Forest Town Center in front of Third Place Books.

Firefighters from around the U.S. - and the world - send teams to participate in the Stairclimb, which will be held on Sunday, March 12, 2023,

Participants, who must be career, volunteer, or retired firefighters, climb the 788 feet, 1,311 steps, and 69 floors of the Columbia Tower in Seattle wearing 60+ pounds of full gear.

Each one commits to raising $300.

Registrations are limited to 2,000 people. The 2020 event filled in 14 minutes.

This is the 32nd year for the event, which was started by a Shoreline fire captain, David Engler, (see his story here) who made his first climb in full gear in 1990 and challenged other firefighters to join him in 1992.

Thank you for your interest and support of the Stairclimb, it’s a wonderful tradition to be a part of and it fills a lot of us with pride that it was all started by our department.

Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics

Tuesday, June 14, 2022


The mission of the Law Enforcement Torch Run® Campaign for Special Olympics Washington is to create awareness and excitement for Special Olympics and to encourage support and attendance of the State Spring Games.

The involvement of law enforcement at the Opening Ceremony is an important addition to the pageantry of the Games. Law enforcement’s role as “Guardians of the Flame” is apparent as officers from around the state join together to carry the “Flame of Hope” into the arena.

The 2022 Law Enforcement Torch Run Final Leg will take place from June 15-17 with runs across Washington State.

The torch will be in Shoreline Friday morning, June 17, 2022. 

The route runs the length of Shoreline as Edmonds police officers meet Shoreline officers at the county line. The Shoreline group, which includes Kenmore, Lake Forest Park and others, will run with the torch and some athletes to the Seattle line where it will be handed off to Seattle PD.

Eventually, all will converge at Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma to kick off the Special Olympics Washington State Spring Games on Friday evening, June 17. 

The lighting of the cauldron from the torch marks the start of the Games and the beginning of competition for more than 2,000 athletes, Unified partners and coaches from across the state. 

Law enforcement’s role in protecting the symbolism and integrity of this ceremony greatly enhances the experience of the athletes participating in the Games.

A Way To Support The Ukrainian People

Sunday, March 20, 2022


By Megan Peterka

We learned about and just saw this beautiful and tragic movie called the "Guide" that is playing at the Crest Cinema, https://www.landmarktheatres.com. It will be showing there until at least Thursday, March 24, 2022.

Proceeds from all ticket sales go to the Ukraine Relief Fund (see below). Throughout the ages, popular national culture was sustained in Ukraine by blind minstrels, called kobzars, who traveled from village to village with young guides, performing ancient folk songs and epic ballads. 

In The Guide, an American boy, Peter (Anton Sviatoslav Greene), and blind musician Ivan (Stanislav Boklan) are thrown together by fate amidst the 1930s Russian subjugation of Ukraine. The "Terror Famine" of the ‘30s is incredibly current given the attempts of Russia to once again crush the independence and freedom of their Ukrainian neighbor. (Partially subtitled) ~ "The Crest"
The Ukraine Relief Fund has been established in cooperation with Human and Civil Rights Organizations of America, Inc. (HCROA), which is managing donations and ensuring they reach organizations working effectively in Ukraine and countries supporting Ukrainian refugees. You can make direct contributions here: standwithukrainethroughfilm.org ~ "The Crest"

The Crest is located in the Ridgecrest business district at 5th NE and NE 165th. 16505 5th Ave NE, Shoreline WA 98155.
