Get on the list for Northshore CERT class
Following a major disaster, local Fire, Medical, Police, City, and other first responders may not be able to meet the demand for their services. Residents and visitors to our community may need to rely on each other for help in order to meet their immediate life sustaining needs.
The Northshore Emergency Management Coalition CERT program will educate participants about local hazards, basic disaster preparedness, and provide hands on training that includes fire safety, light search and rescue, and disaster medical operations. After completing the CERT academy, volunteers will have the opportunity to participate in additional drills and exercises to keep their skills sharp and continue to enhance their knowledge and abilities.
The next CERT academy will begin on September 11, 2017. Registration opens approximately four weeks prior. Classes do fill up and registration is open to the first 30 that submit a completed registration form along with the $35 class fee.
For more information on Northshore Emergency Management Coalition CERT program or to be sure to be notified as soon as registration begins, contact the program manager at 425-354-1744 or by email.
Letter to the Editor: By failing to condemn, Trump condones
I am responding to Maggie Wilson’s letter published on August 15th. Extremists of any sort can be a danger. But to call the Charlottesville protestors of hate speech “anti-First Amendment” and to put leftist violence on the same plane as the organized espousal of institutional racism serves only to obscure the real issue: The particular menace of hate groups is that their messages promote violence (and worse) against minorities.
Secondly, Wilson has missed the message in Trump’s choice of words. By failing to condemn the hate groups up front (not their right to hate-speech), Trump implicitly condones them. If you have any doubt about that, read what the alt-right is saying about his words.
I would also like to point out that the “dead cops” clip Wilson attributed to BLM was actually of a small contingent of protestors taken after the end of the 2014 Millions March, whose actions were later disavowed by the event’s organizers.

Finding Kind: end girl-on-girl bullying
Wednesday, August 16, 2017
Almost every girl has experienced bullying. Unfortunately, almost every girl has also contributed to bullying.
The Finding Kind campaign is a movement to end girl-against-girl bullying.
Surveys of girls who participate in a finding kind event report that:
- 96% were compelled to be kinder to girls after the event
- Two out of every three girls apologize to someone during or after the event
- 90% agreed that they did not want to participate in gossip or drama after experiencing the event.
- 90% realized that they were not alone because of their participation.
The trailer for Finding Kind is here
While this event is open to the public, the program is designed for girls and their parents/leaders.
Police department Charity Salmon BBQ Sunday in LFP
The Police Department and our officers are committed to helping Special Olympics Washington with this wonderful fundraiser. Last year, with the help of our major sponsors (Albertsons, Costco, and Icicle Seafoods), we raised just over $13,000. 100% of the proceeds go directly to those special athletes.
In addition to the BBQ, there will be a raffle. The grand prize for the raffle are two club level tickets to the Seahawks v. Cardinals game at Centurylink on December 31st. And, there are UW Football tickets to the Cal game on October 7th.
Lastly, there will be a dunk-tank where you can come try to dunk the Mayor, the police chief, or other officials!
Chief Sutton says, "Thank you all for your support of the Police Department and this event in the past- hopefully you can make it out this Sunday to support our effort this year!"
Jazz Walk - where the beats and the eats and the treats hit the streets
The Eats were many and varied. Besides Krispy Kreme, and the Here and There food truck, Leena's and Peking House moved to the street. Here and There had a steady but manageable line all through the event. Easy Monkey, North City Bistro, North City Lounge, and Vesper served food inside.
North City Water had popcorn and snacks. Standard Bakery has Sweet Treats. Bethel Lutheran had root beer floats. Rain City had pretzels and beer.
There were a lot of options.
Hook Me Up is a loud and lively, toe-tapping group. They always play at an outside venue, filling the street with music. They kept the beat going into the night.
Vesper Restaurant and Bar has enough indoor space for the bands and some spontaneous dancers. Music performed by Hopscotch and Daniel Arteaga.
13 year old Brooke Lambert was one of the featured singers at the Bethel Lutheran venue. Young in age, but a mature and professional sounding singer, she's one to watch.
The sun was going down and the Rain City Rotary Beer Garden had the best seats in town.

Dahlias for Senior Center
| Oregon Reign Photo by John Hibbs |
Hibbs is a dahlia grower, with 75 varieties in his Ridgecrest yard. He has partnered with the Ridgecrest Public House and Bastyr University to provide bouquets of dahlias.
Suggested donation is $1 a stem.
The Senior Center, which took a significant financial hit last year when United Way decided to concentrate its funding elsewhere, can use the money.
Last year, Hibbs raised $1670 for the Senior Center with his blooms. He is hoping to bring in more this year. Bastyr is partnering with him once again. Last year they took 100 blooms a week for six weeks and contributed $600.
Bastyr used the flowers to decorate events, acknowledge employees, grace Board meetings, offices, and cafeteria tables.
You can pick up a bouquet at the Ridgecrest Public House, located at 520 NE 165th St, Shoreline 98155 in the Ridgecrest business district, open 4pm – 12am seven days a week.

Letter to the Editor: Political violence has indeed come from "many sides"
To the Editor:
Jesse Salomon's sensationalistic letter about Charlottesville is wrong on so many levels.
Salomon calls Heather Heyer a "pro-democracy activist". Heyer's death was tragic, but she was at the scene as part of an anti-First Amendment mob, there to deprive others of their right to free speech. To me, that's kind of the opposite of "pro-democracy". The free speech in question was vile and hateful, but it's still protected by the First Amendment - just look up "Skokie Nazi march".
Salomon condemns President Trump for mentioning violence "on many sides". Where has Salomon been for the last 2 years? There's been plenty of political violence, and it has indeed come from many sides, and frankly, most of it has come from Salomon's side - the so-called "progressive left". A few examples:

Op-Ed: Washington state Republican chair responds to Charlottesville
Susan Hutchison, Chair of the Washington state Republican party, issued the following statement:
The event in Charlottesville called “Unite the Right” was a White Supremacist and neo-Nazi protest march and had nothing to do with the Republican Party. Republicans will never “unite” with these extremists and their views.
I am a co-sponsor of this RNC resolution which denounces these extremist organizations and also explains the historical record of Republicans against racism. Please read it here.
It came to light yesterday, that one participant at the march was the President of College Republicans at WSU. While the Republican Party has no authority over the organization called College Republicans (CR), I promptly contacted their national and state offices with this message:
Swift action is required against James Allsup, the President of CR-WSU who marched in the “Unite the Right” event this weekend. His videos were repulsive and do not represent the values and standards of the Republican Party. I call on you to denounce his actions and affiliations with all white supremacist and neo-Nazi groups.
Allsup resigned late yesterday. It should be noted that in a news report Sunday, Allsup did not claim to be a Republican but instead a “paleo-conservative” or “right wing libertarian”.
The Democrats and leftists in our state hope to tie this ugly episode to the Republican party, our elected officials and candidates. Instead, we will use their attacks as an opportunity to affirm our Party’s stand against racism and bigotry.
Respectfully,
Chairman Susan Hutchison
Washington State Republican Party

Letter to the Editor: Trump's response to the Nazis
In reference to The Seattle Times article from 8-12-17 "Trump says many sides to blame for violent clashes in Virginia".
My grandmother grew up in Nazi Germany. She used to tell me of the times that led to the rise of the Nazi party. During the instability and economic chaos of the Weimar period fascists and communist supporters would clash in the streets, much like we are starting to see today in the U.S. The Nazi party successfully took advantage of the chaos they helped create by arguing that they would bring stability.
Trump is sowing chaos and racial discord. By refusing to quickly condemn the Nazi terrorist murder of a pro-Democracy activist at a Virginia rally this weekend he sent the message that the victims are equally to blame. In his own words he described the event as an "egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence that’s on many sides.”
This was about a Nazi murderer and a pro-democracy murder victim. That Trump refused to quickly condemn the Nazis shows which side he is on.
The lesson that I learned from my grandmother is this: Never let them get away with it. If they intimidate you into silence they will take advantage to secure their own power. That is their goal. They are not asking to be heard, or to have a dialogue. As they become more powerful they will intimidate you more and the consequences to you will be more severe. These are the times where we can still speak out and stop the rise of racists and fascists. Today that is our most patriotic American duty. It is a duty not left to protestors but to all of us.

Services Thursday for William Hugh Thomas
![]() |
| William Hugh Thomas 1918-2017 |
January 23, 1942, he married the love of his life, Shirley Jennings. They recently celebrated their 75th wedding anniversary surrounded by their large family.
After his graduation from Lincoln High School in Seattle in June 1937, Bill joined the U.S. Navy on his birthday at age 17, the earliest he was eligible to enlist.
During World War II, Bill worked as a carpenter’s mate on several ships. Following the war, he stayed in the Naval Reserve until 1949, when he received his discharge papers.
While in the Naval Reserve, he also worked in the Seattle Police Department until rejoining the military in April 1949, this time in the U.S. Army, as a Second Lieutenant. He retired from the Army in December 1963, as a Chief Warrant Officer in criminal investigation.
Following his graduation from the University of Washington in June 1967, Bill established the Law Enforcement program at Shoreline Community College. He retired in 1981 after teaching at SCC for 16 years.
He and Shirley spent considerable periods of time in Israel and enjoyed numerous cruises in various parts of the world. He carried out his love of gardening at their homes on Dayton Avenue North in Shoreline (1963-1973), in Kingston, Washington (1973-1995), and at Richmond Beach in Shoreline, Washington (1995-2015).
A proud Welshman through and through, Bill sang in church choirs and Welsh choirs his whole life. He especially enjoyed singing with many friends in the choir at Calvin Presbyterian Church in Shoreline.
Bill is survived by his wife, Shirley Jennings Thomas; sons John, David (Linda), Stephen (Glennyce), James (Sandra), and Daniel (Julie) Thomas; numerous nieces and nephews; 11 grandchildren; and 13 great-grandchildren. He is preceded in death by his parents, brother Robert (Aileen) Thomas and daughter-in-law Shelly Thomas.
A celebration of Bill’s life will take place at 2pm on Thursday, August 17, 2017, at Cristwood Activity Center in Shoreline, Washington, with his grandson, The Rev. Seth J. Thomas, officiating.
Donations can be made to King’s Schools at Crista Ministries, 19303 Fremont Ave N, Seattle, WA 98133.

Sasquatch: Man-Ape or Myth Aug 17

| Shoreline resident Vicki Montzingo in her role as Baby Sasquatch in the movie Harry and the Hendersons |
Throughout the Northwest, people have been reporting encounters with the Sasquatch — a hairy, eight- to ten-foot-tall hominid — for hundreds of years.
Yet aside from a collection of large footprint casts and a sizable assemblage of eyewitness accounts, some attributable to the earliest humans in the Northwest, no scientifically accepted evidence has been offered to establish this being's existence.
Author David George Gordon evaluates the data gathered about the legendary Northwest icon, discusses the rules of critical thinking and the workings of the scientific method, and explains how one can become an effective "citizen scientist" by gathering credible evidence that can be used to substantiate the Sasquatch's status as either Man-Ape or Myth.
Attendees are encouraged to tell their tales and share their experiences with this mysterious creature.

State seeks volunteers to count people who bike and walk
![]() |
| Photo by Mary Jo Heller |
The number of people who choose to walk or ride bicycles as their mode of transportation is increasing in Washington each year.
Volunteer support is vital to the success of this project, and about 400 people are needed for the count. In 2016, volunteers tallied more than 78,000 people biking and walking in communities across Washington.
For this ninth annual survey, the Washington State Department of Transportation and Cascade Bicycle Club are partnering with FeetFirst, Washington Bikes and Futurewise to help count the number of people bicycling and walking Tuesday, September 26 through Thursday, September 28.
“Data from this survey help state and local governments plan and evaluate improved connections for Washingtonians who walk and bike, in a similar way we plan for other modes of travel,” said Active Transportation Division Director Barb Chamberlain. “Volunteers make the collection process possible – we couldn’t do this work without them.”
This volunteer effort makes sure that people who bike and walk are counted as essential users of the transportation system. Data collected during the count is used by state and local agencies to estimate demand; measure the benefit of bicycle and pedestrian project investments; and improve policies, project designs and funding opportunities.
In addition to the annual count, WSDOT, Cascade Bicycle Club, and local agencies are partnering to install permanent counters at locations around the state. To see data from both data collection programs, visit the WSDOT Bicycle and Pedestrian Count Portal.
To learn more, visit WSDOT’s website, email Cascade Bicycle Club or call 206-954-4896.

Drive sober or get pulled over
In north King County, the Lake Forest Park, Seattle, and Shoreline Police Departments, the Washington State Patrol, and the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board will be canvassing the roadways in search of impaired drivers.
The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign is designed to encourage all drivers to make the right choice.
Designate a sober, drug-free driver, take a cab, catch a ride share, Uber, Lyft or walk with a friend.
These extra patrols are part of Target Zero — striving to end traffic deaths and serious injuries in Washington by 2030.
