Wizer block poised for transformation
Developers are hoping
for $5 million public
investment from the city
By KARA HANSEN MURPHEY
The Review
After more than a decade in the
doldrums, redevelopment of Lake
Oswego’s Block 137, owned by Gene
Wizer, appears to finally be moving
ahead.
Developers and city staff presented a
plan to the Lake Oswego Redevelopment Agency on Tuesday that would
transform the whole downtown block
into a development with 242 “upperend” apartments, retail spaces on the
street level and underground parking
along with a courtyard and a public
walkway. The block, between First and
Second streets, Evergreen Road and A
Avenue, has long been eyed for such a
project, but redevelopment has taken
place around the property rather than
on it over the years.
The Wizer block is now sandwiched
between Millennium Plaza Park, a commercial building housing the Italian
restaurant Tucci and other businesses,
and a few dozen three-level townhomes.
“This is a project that’s been a high
priority for the LORA board and the redevelopment agency for years,” said
Eyed for
redevelopment
for years, the
block where
Wizer’s has been
for decades is
now poised for a
transformation
into apartments
and retail spaces.

economic development, on Tuesday at
city hall. The LORA board is made up of
city council members.
Patrick Kessi of W&K Development
said Monday that his firm had reached
an agreement with Gene Wizer late last
year, although discussions between the
parties began as long as six or seven
years ago. Now, if all goes according to
plan, W&K will buy the property in the
heart of downtown where Wizer’s grocery store has served residents for
more than 50 years.
City meeting records confirm Wizer
has been in contact with numerous developers over the past decade, but a redevelopment project never came to
fruition on his block.
“Gene is very cautious,” Kessi said,
“and a really good man. He cares about
the community tremendously. He didn’t
want to just let a developer have all of
the control.”

School district
safety questioned
School board talks security, cougars
Superintendent Bill Korach said the Lake Oswego
School District is continually seeking to improve school
security, but sometimes the
issue gets a little more attention.
The school board discussed
changes to security protocol
during its Monday meeting,
touching on cougar sightings
and an unexpected visit from
KATU, a local TV news station.
A reporter produced a story
based on a visit to Lake Oswego Junior High during which
he did not sign in and filmed
students and potential security
vulnerabilities. The reporter
surprised a school district administrator with the footage
during an interview. The online story blurs students’ faces.
KATU officials “don’t care
about kids’ safety or the lives
of kids,” school board Chairman John Wendland said.
“They put our kids at risk.”
The KATU story was done in
response to community member Marti Long’s email complaint about seeing no security
at the junior high school’s front
entrance and a “lack of signage” for the office.
“Shame on you for failing to
protect our children,” Long
said in an email to the superintendent and school board.
An email from KATU News
Director Tiffani Lupenski to
school board members and a
district staffer was included in
the board packet.
“It is the job of journalists to
ask tough questions and showcase public vulnerabilities,”
Lupenski wrote.
Korach said earlier this
week that the filming and subsequent KATU interview with
an administrator “was an unfair setup” that “was not what I
would call appreciated.”
The school board agreed the
sign-in process, including the
type of badge, should be consistent among schools.
Korach said the school district already has protocols established, although recent cougar sightings and a report of
gunshots near area schools
last week brought some potential issues to the surface.
Students were locked in,
part of the protocol, for both
Police warn of
possible cougar
sightings
Cougar sightings in
several areas around
Lake Oswego led to a
lock-in early Monday afternoon at Westridge Elementary School; it was
lifted later that afternoon.
Westridge Elementary
school was placed on lockin at 1:50 p.m. due to a report of a large animal in a
tree in the area. The animal
was reportedly a cougar.
Lake Oswego School District officials were keeping
students inside of the
school because there had
been a cougar sighting in
the area Monday afternoon. Tuesday, Lake Oswego Policeofficers were on
foot while students boarded buses, and police also
were patrolling the area.
“All students are safe;
there have been no incidents on the school campus,” Lake Oswego Police
Sgt. Tom Hamann said.
There have been reports
of cougar sightings several
days earlier this week. Police are consulting a state
Department of Fish and
Wildlife tracker, Hamann
said. The goal is to capture
the animal, but it will be
euthanized if necessary.
Since the original sighting and alert, Hamann said
there has not been any actual sightings of a cougar.

incidents. About 80 parents arrived at Oak Creek Elementary
School to get their students
when they heard about the
gunfire, which is not such a
good thing “if a gunman is
loose,” said Patrick Tomblin,
director of special education/
special services at the school
district.

on Monday in the Westridge
Elementary School area, the

LO prayer day has
accent on youth
Believers gather by
city hall to pray for
leaders everywhere
By CLIFF NEWELL
The Review
P
eople of faith from all over Lake
Oswego gathered at the flagpole behind Lake Oswego City
Hall last Thursday for the National Day of Prayer.
It was a strong outpouring of faith because the day had a special meaning,
coming so soon after the bombing tragedy at the Boston Marathon.
Of all the groups there to pray, however, the most impressive was the leadership class from Our Lady of the Lake
School. The children’s prayers were mostly short, sometimes deeply felt or humorous. One girl prayed that her dog become
happier and appreciated the good home it
had.
“It was such a blessing to hear children
pray and to see their faces,” said Donna
Scales, who led the organizing committee.
“They set our theme. I’m glad their pastor
(Father Charles Wood) was here to hear
them.”
The students prayed for the homeless,
the hungry, the victims of the Boston
Marathon, their brothers, sisters and parents. Wood said their proxies for children
everywhere. In return, the students received an important lesson.
“What motivates me so much is that
when you have a freedom you need to
take advantage of it,” Scales said. “We
were free to praise God in front of city
hall.”
This was the 13th year for observing
the National Day of Prayer in Lake Oswego. It was started because the Lake Oswego Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast was canceled after just two years. This was disappointing to Scales and other church women, and they resolved to replace it with
another event. The day of prayer started
out with only four churches involved.

“I hope you send some prayers our way

Kent Studebaker.
Leaders and public servants at all levels were high on the prayer list. So were
American military men and women serving in the Middle East. It was a special
day for Lake Oswego’s Becky Cartier, who
has made caring for the families of soldiers her special mission.
“I got the idea for starting Cards for

Budget committee OKs staff, service cuts Fundraiser
Weigh in on the budget
The Review
When the Lake Oswego Budget Committee meets today, it
will dive into the details of the
biggest infrastructure project in
the city’s history.
The 2013-14 budget includes $112
million for the city’s portion of Lake
Oswego-Tigard Water Partnership
projects, paid for through residents’
and businesses’ utility bills.
In addition, the budget committee
could add money for road maintenance. City Manager Tom Coffee has
warned that Lake Oswego needs to
spend more than $3 million annually
to bring its streets up to average condition, and the city council has identified road projects as a key area to
focus on. But at this point in the process, the city has only planned for
about $200,000 in spending on basic
street repairs and maintenance.
The budget committee, made up of
the six city councilors, the mayor and
seven citizen members, will continue
reviewing the plan at 6 p.m. today at
city hall, 380 A Ave.
As proposed April 18, the $421 million spending plan mostly holds the
line on programs and services.
However, the committee on May 2
tentatively approved a handful of
“decision packages” that Coffee unveiled April 25. The packages target
specific services — and employees
— to cut.
The cuts would result in scaledback services. Duties and tasks associated with the eliminated positions would shift to other employees,
mostly in the city manager’s office.
The idea is to rein in spending on
The city council is expected to
review the committee’s approved
budget and adopt a spending
plan in June. The budget would
then take effect in July.

salaries and benefits, which account
for the lion’s share of general fund
expenditures each year, and to free
up money for street maintenance
and major equipment purchases
coming down the pike.
Growth in property tax revenues
is gradually falling behind the city’s
rising costs to pay employees, in part
because of ballooning retirement and
health insurance expenses. In addition, the city typically relies on its
fund balance — money left at the end
of the fiscal year — to cover expenses. But the amount left over each
year has been on the decline, according to the city.
Spending reductions tentatively
approved last week include:
n Economic development — The
committee voted to try to save $71,000
by cutting a project manager in the
economic development department,
although it opted to keep giving
$30,000 in support to the chamber of
commerce and a city marketing plan.
n Parks and recreation — one of
four recreation program supervisors
will be laid off, and a senior parks
utility worker’s position won’t be
filled when that person retires in the
coming year, with savings estimated
at more than $140,000.
n Planning — The committee voted to eliminate three long-range
planners, an estimated savings of
$232,000.
n Public affairs — The committee
voted to eliminate the city’s public affairs manager, an estimated savings
of $101,000.
While the city manager had suggested the committee drop Lake Oswego’s sustainability program, laying off the person who runs it, sustainability survived this round of
budget meetings — barely.
City Councilor Jeff Gudman noted
these votes are preliminary; the
group will revisit them after making
it through a hefty list of expenditures
and resources, and it could make additional changes before its final deliberations. He said the key is finding
the right balance between environmental, social and financial concerns.
In addition to proposed cuts, the
committee tentatively agreed to
spend $80,000 on a consultant to undo
the existing sensitive lands protection program and implement an alternative method of preserving the
environment and natural resources.
And it added $800,000 back into anticipated revenues by restoring the
property tax rate, which it earlier
considered lowering, and it budgeted
a staff vacancy rate into the budget
to save more on the spending side.
It also pointed to some areas for
future discussion. Those include potentially privatizing the municipal
golf course, now subsidized by the
city’s general fund; considering con-
tracting with Tualatin Valley Fire &
Rescue instead of running a full-service city fire department; and considering a citywide gas tax — which voters would have to approve — to raise
more money for street maintenance.
Other topics up for eventual consideration include levying the full
amount allowed in franchise fees —
expenses that appear on residents’
cable, gas and electricity bills, helping fund a new artificial infield for
little league baseball, buying Hallinan Woods, providing money toward a new playground at Westridge
Elementary School and helping pay
for the Lake Oswego School District’s
swimming pool.
The committee also plans to continue dissecting parks and recreation
spending.
Committee chairman David Berg
credited Bill Tierney, a former city
councilor, with a years-long push for
information about how much money
recreation programs generate compared to their costs.
Ivan Anderholm, the city’s interim
parks director, presented that information May 2.
Berg called it a “major breakthrough.” Are these programs paying for themselves? “Absolutely not,”
he said. “... We now know it costs us
around a million dollars in general
funds to subsidize the sports programs, cultural activities, etcetera. It
is something we need to review.”
At its meeting tonight, the group
will deliberate on additional “decision packages” outside of the proposed budget. Those include funding
maintenance of vegetation along the
city’s streets, an estimated cost of
$50,000, and potentially increasing
spending on basic road work.
LO church bringing hope to the desert
By CLIFF NEWELL
The Review
The Rev. Bob Sanders set his
sights too low when Lake Grove
Presbyterian Church first sought
to help a native village in Senegal,
Africa, in 1995. He has not made
that mistake since.
“We sought enough money to support one well,” Sanders said. “We got
enough money for 12 wells.”
This proved to be a transformative
experience for the church. Since that
first experience, Lake Grove Presbyterian has channeled $1 million to
Senegalese villagers. Not only that,
this first mission was the root of oth-
er mission programs that started in
the church, including the successful
WaterAfrica, founded by Bill and Diane Savage. Only a few weeks ago
the organization’s Walk4Water6 attracted a record 460 water walkers.
This partnership with World Vision
will be recognized when LGPC hosts
Senegal Celebration the weekend of
May 18 and 19. The public is invited to
come and see what has been going on
for the past two decades.
It all started with Sanders and
some of his church members attended a missions conference sponsored
by World Vision in 1994, and one of
the speakers challenged them to
pray for the people of Senegal.
“We sent a team to investigate,”
Sanders said. “We saw the bore holes
and saw the difference clean water
makes in the lives of these people.
Their lives were transformed
through water. Before, drought had
spread across the country, and people had to walk five or six miles to fill
a bucket with filthy water.”
“Senegal was a land almost without hope,” said Alan Shiffer, a senior
director of World Vision and a member of Lake Grove Presbyterian.
“There was so much trouble happening in West Africa. Our church has
been working to bring holistic and
sustainable development. It has put
crops into the desert and brought
hope for the future.”
While the church has given water
and money, in return its members
have received awareness.
The weekend celebration begins at
9:45 a.m. on May 18 with the program
“Behind the Headlines: What God Is
doing in West Africa.” It will feature
guest speakers Torrey Olsen of
World Vision, Adama Diouf, Leopold
Diouf and Feluine Fall. A worship
service is scheduled at 5 p.m.
Guest speakers from Senegal will
be featured at all three worship services on May 19 at 8, 9:30 and 11 a.m.
The church is at 4040 Sunset Drive
in Lake Grove. For more information,
call Susie Graham at 503-210-6081.

‘Young at Heart’ to feature
auction, music, food and
cocktails at The Foundry
Any age is welcome at the “Young at
Heart” fundraiser for the Lake Oswego
Adult Community Center on May 16 at
5:30 p.m.
Frank Sinatra’s golden hit from 1953 is just
the right theme for this premiere event that
will benefit so many of Lake Oswego’s senior
citizens.
“We have fantastic community support
from businesses and donors,” said Ann Adrian, ACC manager.
The setting for the ACC fundraiser is entirely appropriate. The Foundry, with its lovely location on the Willamette River, will be
transformed into a swanky 1960s-style nightclub. Featured will be a sit-down dinner with
multiple courses, auction items and live music in the tradition of Frank Sinatra.
As a side attraction there will be a cocktail
competition with local bartenders.
Five of Lake Oswego’s finest restaurants
are teaming up to provide a feast. They include Gourmet Productions, Five Spice, Jefe
and Scratch, plus the chef’s staff from Mary’s
Woods.
Producing this event will be Lake Oswego’s
own Cindy Thompson, who produced the remarkable Lake Oswego Centennial Celebration in 2010.
ACC supporters say this elegant event will
bring together young and old alike for an evening of delicious food, great music and good
friends, all with the purpose of raising money
for the ACC, a facility that has been an indispensable resource for citizens age 50 and
older, offering recreation, education and social service programs.
Notable sponsors include Mary’s Woods,
the presenting sponsor, and Food Services of
America and Eastside Distilling, both in-kind
sponsors.
Tickets cost $100, and Adrian said half of
the ticket price can be used as a tax deduction. Tickets can be purchased now at www.
ci.oswego.or.us/acc or at the ACC.

Thompson at [email protected].

The Review
The Women’s Club Lake
Run is approaching fast.
The 37th annual race on Saturday in Millennium Plaza
Park raises dollars for local
families in need and supports
community service-minded students. Organizers aim to draw
1,500 to 1,700 runners, a jump
from last year’s 1,200 to 1,300
runners.
The fundraising goal is
$100,000, $22,000 more than last
year, Lake Run Sponsorship
Chairwoman Kari Borgen said.
The Women’s Club has reworked the longest run’s route,
dropping it from a 12K to a 10K.
The 5K, half-mile kids dash for
children 11 and younger and
mile walk routes remain the
same, Lake Run Chairwoman
Diana Del Garbino said. Runners and walkers can pre-regis-

ter on the club’s website, lowomensclub.org/AboutLakeRun.
At the Lake Run’s Family
Fun Festival, there will be children’s activities such as airbrush face-painting, a Lakeridge High School football
team obstacle course and Lake
Oswego High School cheer
team cheering lessons. Food
booths and local businesses
will also be on hand.
Proceeds support local students and survivors of domestic violence.
Women’s Club funds benefit
groups such as the Children’s
Center in Clackamas County, a
nonprofit offering medical as-
sessments for children in cases
of suspected abuse; and Clackamas Women’s Services, the only shelter in the county for
women and children trying to
escape domestic violence.
Lake Run dollars also fund
three $1,000 college scholarships per year for Lake Oswego
and West Linn students who
perform an exemplary level of
community service.
Community leaders founded
the Women’s Club, a nonprofit
group of volunteers, in 1974.
The group started documenting its community donations in
1991, tallying a history of giving
of $1.8 million since then.
Moonstruck Café to close
Moonstruck Chocolate Co.,
a Portland-based artisan
chocolatier, will close the
Moonstruck Chocolate Café
in Lake Oswego.
The café’s last day serving
customers will be May 26.
“We’ve had a great run in
Lake Oswego,” said Moonstruck chief executive officer
Dan Hossley. “And we’ve enjoyed serving our many loyal
customers. However, the loca-
tion is not ideal and the expiration of our lease gives us the
opportunity to find a setting
that’s a better fit for our
needs.”
The company is actively
looking to open another location to complement the remaining four cafes in the Portland
metro area. Two Moonstruck
Chocolate Cafes are located in
downtown Portland at Pioneer
Place and SW Alder and Sixth
Avenue, one in Northwest Portland on 23rd Avenue, and one
in Beaverton Town Center.
All employees at the Lake
Oswego café will be offered positions at other Moonstruck
Chocolate Café locations.
Moonstruck chocolates will
continue to be available at specialty retailers in Lake Oswego

Lake Oswego
man accused of
killing mom,
nephew last year
The Review
A Lake Oswego man accused of shooting and killing
his mother and nephew last
year plans to plead guilty but
insane, court records show.
Adrien Graham Wallace, 42,
is accused of
shooting Saundra Sue Wallace, 71, and
Nicolas Brian
Juarez, 16, outside of the
home the Wallaces shared in
the 18000 block
WAllAcE
of
Indian
Springs Circle.
The incident took place in the
evening of June 4 as Saundra
Sue Wallace and her grandson,
who was in town visiting from
out of state, were leaving to travel to Mountain View, Calif.,
where the teenager lived.
Adrien Wallace is being held
in Clackamas County Jail without bail on two counts of aggravated murder while awaiting
trial.
His attorneys recently filed a
notice of their intent to rely on
the insanity defense. The filing
states that at the time of the alleged crimes, Wallace “suffered
from a mental disease or defect
and that he lacked substantial
capacity either to appreciate the
criminality of the conduct or to
conform his conduct to the requirements of the law.”
It also states Wallace has continued “to suffer the effects of
such mental disease or defect”

Wallace to plead
guilty but insane
while incarcerated and “his
treatment conditions are cruel
and unusual in that defendant
has been unable to seek treatment for such problems.”
Wallace contends that keeping him at the county jail rather
than the Oregon State Hospital
violates his constitutional
rights, according to the court records.
A document filed at the jail
shortly after his arrest said Wallace, who is unemployed, confessed to shooting his family
members in the head with a
hunting rifle.
Authorities have not shared
details about what might have
transpired before gunshots
were reported in the neighborhood, just south of city
limits.
About 40 law enforcement officers responded to the incident,
which took place in broad daylight in front of the home on Indian Springs Circle. They included deputies from the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office,
Lake Oswego Police, Oregon
State Police and personnel from
the state medical examiner’s office.

But Kessi said the project won’t pencil out
without some support from the city’s redevelopment agency.
Developers are hoping the urban renewal
agency will essentially cover or waive the
city’s usual fees associated with new developments along with fees for permits, and
contribute $750,000 to the project. In all, that
amounts to an estimated $5 million public
investment, he said.
Using money generated from growth in
the district’s property tax revenues, the
agency has funded public amenities such as
Millennium Plaza Park and facilitated private investment in projects like apartments
where a cement plant used to sit and Lake
View Village. In some cases the agency directly funds improvements to infrastructure
like parks, while in other cases it helps facilitate projects, such as acquiring properties to sell for a large private development.
The idea is to stimulate additional development and economic activity, expanding
the city’s tax base.
“Public participation is needed so we can
make this development a reality,” Kessi said,
noting the project would provide many more
dollars in property tax revenues and would
generate construction excise money for public schools.
The Lake Oswego Redevelopment Agency
can take on about $50 million more in projects in the district, according to a 2011-12 annual report. Redevelopment of Block 137 and
a possible hotel is projected to cost LORA $6
million, according to the report.
Developers will likely come back to the
LORA board to discuss a proposed publicprivate partnership. Their final design
would be subject to consideration by the
city’s design review commission and would
have to comply with city codes, although
exemptions could be granted. In the case of
the Wizer block, developers would need an
exception for being five stories tall — city
code limits height to four stories in the area.
Still, even with five stories the building
would fit the city’s height limit of 60 feet
downtown.
It would also need an exemption to allow
residential entries at street level downtown.

“While actual cougar sightings have become more frequent, coyotes, bobcats and
dogs are often mistaken for cougars,” Hamann said. “In this case, it is fairly likely
that we are, in fact, dealing with a cougar.”
Hamann said his department received
several reports of possible cougar sightings off Jean Road, near Lakeridge Junior
High School. Some of the reports were for
incidents that occurred a day or two earlier, including at dusk on Sunday.
Anyone who has seen an animal they
think was a cougar should call the police
department’s nonemergency number, 503635-0238.
If you encounter one of the big cats, call
9-1-1, and keep your distance.
“We just want to make sure if people
have seen it they let us know at the nonemergency number,” Hamann said, “and if
they’re seeing it now, call 9-1-1.”
The Oregon Department of Fish and
Wildlife offers these tips for cougar encounters:
■ Cougars often will retreat if given the
opportunity. Leave the animal a way to escape.
■ Stay calm and stand your ground.
■ Maintain direct eye contact.
■ Pick up children, but do so without
bending down or turning your back on the
cougar.
■ Back away slowly.
■ Do not run. Running triggers a chase
response in cougars, and that could lead
to an attack.
■ Raise your voice and speak firmly.
■ If the cougar seems aggressive, raise
your arms to make yourself look larger
and clap your hands.
■ If in the very unusual event that a
cougar attacks you, fight back with rocks,
sticks, tools or any items available.

School board: ‘There’s a cougar outside’
■ From page A1
Also at the meeting:
parent did, which raised another concern. The protocol is to keep the doors
locked, but there needs to be an exception built in in case someone is in danger.
“There’s a cougar outside. He’s outside,” Tomblin said. “We’re in. Do we
let him in? There are exceptions you
have to make to the rules.”
Local schools have had to lock students in three times this school year,
more times than most people can remember. So far, the procedures have
held up, Tomblin said.
“The staff did a really good job in
the heat of a real event,” he said.
■ Board member Linda Brown nominated Patti Zebrowski as the next board chairwoman. Board member Bob Barman said
the board should wait until the special
election is over before choosing a chairperson. Brown said it is the board’s practice to
choose a chairperson in May. The board
approved Zebrowski’s nomination by a
vote of 4-1 with Barman in opposition.
■ The Lake Monsters Robotics, a group
of Lake Oswego and Lakeridge high school
students and mentors, showed off their robot and showcased its Frisbee-flinging
powers. Students asked the board for help,
including additional staff support. Chair-
man John Wendland said the board would
help in any way it can.
■ The board said it would hold off on
making a decision on Emile Bonfiglio’s request for an easement on River Grove Elementary School property for a wastewater
line extension. The board is waiting for the
real estate study, an evaluation of school
buildings, that could influence what
schools will close.
■ The school board officially declared
this Teacher Appreciation Week.
■ Two students were granted early
graduation requests from Lakeridge High
School.

In contested races
for LO School
District, we back
Wendland, Robertson
B
tested.
allots went out last Friday in Oregon and
among the items of interest in the May 21
special election are three Lake Oswego
School Board races — two of them con-
There’s a bit of a changing of the guard going on with the
school board: Two members, including longtime board member
Linda Brown (position 2) and Teri Oelrich (position 4), are not
running again.
Several issues separate this election from other recent school
board elections. None of these is bigger than the fact the new
school board will be charged with
selecting the successor to longtime
district Superintendent Bill Korach,
the longest-serving public school superintendent in Oregon. Other key challenges remain the contentious and never-ending school funding woes, dealing with controversial school closures (three have been closed in the district in
the last few years), what to do about PERS and dealing with the
looming core curriculum changes.
As is often the case in Lake Oswego politics, we typically draw
high-quality people to run for office. This is the true again this
time. Although we always like to see the voters offered choices, in
the contest for position 4, Liz Hartman is the only person running. Hartman’s candidacy is a legitimate one. She has a solid
background, including serving as chairwoman of the Glenmorrie
Neighborhood Association and being president of the Lakeridge
High School Pacer Parent Club. We encourage local residents to
show support for Hartman by marking their ballots for her in this
race.
The other two races, for positions 2 and 3, are contested and
complicated.
Both Karen Delaney and incumbent John Wendland are running for position 3, and their approaches and backgrounds are
very different; in the contest for position 2, two well-known community residents — Sarah Howell and Kevin Robertson — each
with significant involvement with the Lake Oswego Schools
Foundation, are running against each other.
For the past few weeks, the Lake Oswego Review has seen the
pages of its opinion section swell considerably as voters shared
their thoughts on the candidates at 200 words a pop. Now it’s our
turn to weigh in.
For position 2, we are backing Robertson — by a nose. We really like both of these candidates and, truth be told, the electorate
would be well served by either. We hope that whoever comes in
second won’t be discouraged and is willing to run again in the future.
Howell represents the only candidate with younger children in
the district. She portrays this as a positive; Robertson notes that
his children are older and he has gained from that experience.
We appreciate Howell’s energy, her demeanor and rational thinking. She has been one of the most active people in the effort to develop LOSD’s language immersion program. Howell also has
served the marketing arm for the schools foundation.
Robertson has volunteered at virtually every level in the district for the past 10 years, has been a soccer coach and has served
as president of the schools foundation. He also led the effort to
help create a new funding mechanism with the endowment. Robertson also offers a calm demeanor, a thoughtful approach to decision making and years of experience on the financial side. He’s
a senior vice president with Merrill Lynch.
Howell and Robertson both have great qualifications as regular
school volunteers and as foundation board members. They are
both smart, positive team players who are well apprised of the
major issues facing the school board in the coming years. They
both attend school board meetings. The main difference seems to
be that Robertson has done most of what they both do for longer.
His experience gives him a slight edge.
Meanwhile, over in the race for position 3, the differences are
much more obvious.
Incumbent Wendland and Delaney are both well aware of the
issues. They are smart, driven people who want to make a difference in the community. Yet, Delaney is, perhaps, a better critic
than she is a candidate. She has smart insights but may struggle
to work within a group to achieve them. On a side note, some of
the negative campaigning in this race has distracted from the issues both candidates represent.
Both are thoughtful, articulate and passionate about students.
Wendland has been on the board during some of its most stressful periods, including during the decision to close three elementary schools. Delaney has been a vocal opponent of the way the
board conducted its business during that period.
Delaney, an attorney, would bring to the board legal experience
and a questioning voice. Both of these are important attributes if
they can be used in a way that fosters improvement within the
district. Our concern is that Delaney’s differing views on school
closures, training of the new superintendent and openness in administrative and board matters could end up being more divisive
than team building. That would not be helpful.
Wendland’s senior leadership on the board would be important
as the district moves to hire a new superintendent. Having a
strong superintendent is vital to the continued success of the district. Wendland fits this bill. He has a strong grasp of the issues,
has proven he is willing to make tough decisions, has a collaborative management style and understands the district’s budget issues.
For the district to continue to move forward, we suggest voting
for Wendland for position 3.

Wendland is deserving
of support
I am writing to express my strong
support for the re-election of John
Wendland to the Lake Oswego School
Board. At this time of great transition
and change facing our community, the
importance of continuity and institutional knowledge can’t be minimized.
John has been a steady and strong advocate for the children of the entire
school community. He is experienced as
a business owner and understands that
hard decisions must be made when
faced with economic uncertainty. He is a
good listener and I have watched him
deal with contentious issues. He has always made the decision that best serves
our children.
I have the utmost respect for John. He
approaches his role on the school board
with seriousness, dedication and integrity. I urge you to vote for him.

We need to vote for Sarah
Howell
When I read the April 25 citizen’s
view columns by the four candidates for
Lake Oswego School Board, it became
clear to me who we need the most: Sarah Howell. The other candidates focused
on the past, referred to alleged fiscal irresponsibility or were defensive. Sarah
is full of ideas and full of energy. When I
met her at a neighborhood meeting, she
won my wholehearted support.
Read and listen and she will have your
support as well.

Lake Oswego
Kevin Robertson —
experience and perspective
I am endorsing Kevin Robertson. As a
current member of the Lake Oswego
School Board, I feel strongly that Kevin’s
experience, integrity and commitment
to do what is in the best interest of all
students make him an outstanding
choice. Kevin won’t promise every special interest group what they want to
hear as a means of winning this election.
What he will do is deliver knowledge, financial skills and vision to keep all of
our Lake Oswego schools great.
I have decided to endorse Kevin over
his opponent, Sarah Howell. Sarah is
very capable and has made a big commitment to her family’s passion, language immersion. However, Sarah does
not yet have adequate experience since
her oldest child is only in first grade. It is
too soon. I don’t believe I would have
been prepared to serve as a board member without the valuable perspective I
gained as my children progressed
through all levels of the district.
Kevin will bring his wealth of experience to this challenging role and provide
the perspective and collaboration needed to unify our district. I hope that you
will join me and support Kevin with your
vote on May 21.
Patti Zebrowski
Lake Oswego School Board member
Howell is the right person
for Position 2
Nearly half of the students in LOSD
are elementary age. We need a school
board member who will represent these
students and families to make a brighter
and more exceptional future for LOSD.
To complement the great fiscal stewards
LOSD already has, our district now
needs Sarah Howell who will work to
bring in new young families, someone to
affect change to encourage growth and
to create programs that will keep LOSD
competitive and support college readiness in all of our high school graduates.
Sarah Howell, a strong leader and advocate for all families in LOSD, is the
right person for the job. Sarah’s energy,
determination and devotion to LO families will give this district the boost it
needs to soar above and beyond.
Please join us and vote for Sarah Howell.

Robertson ‘will make sure
tax dollars are spent wisely’
Vote for Kevin Robertson. He is an
outstanding candidate for school board.
Kevin will make sure your tax dollars
are spent wisely on all children in our
district. His financial expertise as a professional investor who analyzes budgets
and companies for results will serve the
school district well during this critical
period of downsizing because he will focus on innovation and improvement
while continuing the strong basic education that has made the Lake Oswego
School District the best in the state.
Kevin’s commitment to the district is
evident in the work he has done for the
foundation as its former president and
chairman of the endowment committee.
I know Kevin, and I know he will be an
excellent school board member. We need
him now.

Wendland is the best choice
We wholeheartedly support John
Wendland for the LO School Board.
We have known John for many years
and have had the pleasure of seeing him
in many leadership roles. John takes the
time to listen to peoples’ cares, concerns
and varying viewpoints.
He has the ability to weigh all options
and use his vast business and school district knowledge to make best decisions
for our schools, students and the community. With John on the board, our
schools have continued to give our students a high-quality education during a
time of decreased funding.
Our district is facing more fiscal and
staffing issues that will require a broad
district knowledge base. Re-electing
John Wendland is the best decision in
facing these issues. His experience,
background, interpersonal skills and
passion for our district is why John will
again have our vote.
Scott and Beth Quarterman

Join us in supporting
Sarah Howell
Please join our family in supporting
Sarah Howell for Lake Oswego School
Board. She has the experience, energy
and enthusiasm to provide the excellent
leadership that we in Lake Oswego have
come to expect from our school board
members.
Sarah works collaboratively, has successfully brought together disparate
groups and addressed their concerns
smartly and compassionately. Her fiscal
ideas are forward thinking and responsible. She is not afraid of hard work and is
passionate about making Lake Oswego
schools the very best that they can be.
Although our family is nearly finished
attending LO schools, we believe that
having strong schools makes our community better and we are convinced that
a vote for Sarah Howell is the best way
to accomplish this.
Thank you for supporting Sarah Howell for school board.

‘The real question is, ‘One key reason
Putting college
what else does our people move to LO into ‘prep’ takes data

A
s we approach the
end of this long campaign season for the
Lake Oswego School
Board, I’ve observed that supporters of both candidates are
energized (and also anxious)
about the election outcome.
Unfortunately, this often
leads to negativity and overreaction. I want to encourage ev-

Sarah Howell
eryone to stay positive and focused on the issues that matter
most to students and our
schools.
I also want to acknowledge
Kevin Robertson and his family
during a difficult time while his
daughter has been hospitalized. We have all been praying
for her to make a full recovery
soon.
This is a pivotal year for the
Lake Oswego School District as
we decide the future makeup of
our school board. I’m proud to
have more endorsements (including more than 20 current
and former Lake Oswego
Schools Foundation board
members) than any other candidate in this election. This
strong vote of confidence is
from the experienced leaders in
our community. They have
worked alongside me and have
seen my positive, collaborative
work style and passion for our
excellent programs.
If I am elected, our school
board will gain the perspective
of an elementary parent — one
who chose to move here, stay
here and enroll our children in
public schools. Families in this
community often have the ability to choose between private
and other public programs.
Any time we lose a student to a
school outside our district, our
district loses the statewide dollars allocated to that student
from the state funding formula.
I want more of our residents to
choose our local public schools.
I also want to encourage families from other school districts
to move here. This will boost
our funding and keep our
school district strong.
Yet being on the school
board is not just about being a
fiscal watchdog. We already
will have four (of five) school
board members with financial
expertise (business owners, entrepreneurs and business analysts). These four board members also have the wisdom that comes from
having high schoolage children or graduates.
The real question is,
what else does our
school board need? I
believe we must work
harder to promote the education of all of the students within
the district. More is being
asked of school districts who
must provide the education we
want for our children with fewer and fewer public resources
being made available.
My professional background
in marketing and public affairs
will benefit our board. These
skills were an asset when I led
the marketing effort for the last
several years on the Lake Oswego Schools Foundation. During my tenure as marketing
chairwoman, we developed a
new annual event at the Lake
Oswego Farmers’ Market, redesigned our website, branding
and logo, all of which contributed to two of the biggest fundraising years in foundation history. The endorsements of many of my fellow board members
speak for themselves.
My only “agenda” is to provide the best possible education for our children in an environment of limited resources. I
will continue to be a positive,
collaborative advocate for sustained excellence in Lake Oswego schools.
Ballots have already arrived. Please vote and encourage others to do the same.
Please cast your vote for Sarah
Howell for Position 2, and contact me by visiting SarahForLOSD.com or facebook.com/

Sarah Howell, Lake Oswego, is a
candidate for Lake Oswego School
Board, Position No. 2.
E
lections bring out calls
for change and innovation and all candidates
present many new
ideas hoping to convince the
voter. Most of these ideas are
wonderful. Who among us
would not want to add back PE
specialists, offer language for
all students, add IB programs
and establish a transitional kin-

dergarten program?
The harsh reality is you can’t
fund new programs without
eliminating or reducing other
established programs. Even
strategies to increase revenue
by recruiting out-of-district students aren’t a magic solution. These students only come
with around $6,500 in state
funding when we spend more
than $8,000 per student to educate our district children thanks
to the local option and the foundation.
I feel we need to start with
the basic premise that Lake Oswego schools are great. Each
year, our wonderful teachers,
administrators, staff and students achieve outstanding results.
We can build from this foundation. Our state funding challenges do not mean we cannot
innovate or restore programs
lost to budget cuts. But it does
require that we identify funding
sources and make tradeoffs
with input from our teachers
and parent community.
I believe we must continue to
improve our elementary and
middle schools. We need to
start with implementing the
Common Core standards, the
largest mandated curriculum
change in recent U.S. history. If
we ensure our teachers are
trained and provide our students the technical resources,
materials and skills they need
to fully take advantage of this
change, we will ensure that
Lake Oswego schools are the
best at realizing the promise of
this new curriculum.
Additionally, I believe we
must look at the elective curriculum. We have added more
STEM classes and should continue to encourage teacher initiative and innovation at both
our high schools and middle
schools. By evaluating electives
for interest and progression, we
can build elective offerings that
benefit all of our children.
Finally, I would like
to see us develop and
fund a master technology plan that addresses central infrastructure and computers as
well as educational
goals for technology use at each
grade level. PTAs have been
generously funding computers
to date, but this has varied at
each school. The time has come
to look at this area districtwide.
As an investment professional with more than 32 years of
experience, I know that I can
utilize my financial background
to structure and build a compelling plan to improve our technology along with a strategy to
invest in the safety, maintenance and improvement of our
older schools.
One key reason people move
to Lake Oswego is the schools.
It is actually quite simple. If we
keep our schools great, we will
keep our community great. I believe that I offer the balanced
leadership and relevant experience professionally and at all of
our school levels to serve you
on the school board. I am 100
percent vested in our community and in our schools. There is
no higher purpose to work for
than the education of all of our
children. We have much work
to do and I am well prepared
and ready for the job.
I am proud to have received
the support and endorsements
of hundreds of Lake Oswego
leaders and community members. Please visit my website,
robertsonforallkids.com, to
learn more about my candidacy.
I would appreciate your vote
for LOSD Board Position 2.
Kevin Robertson, Lake Oswego, is a
Board, Position 2.
A
s the mother of
ninth- and 10th-graders, I appreciate the
quality resources
our district devotes to Lakeridge and LO high school.
Given that these resources are
finite and costly, our school
board must proactively monitor and assess their utilization
and effectiveness. This ongoing analysis must mine all
available data, including:
• Naviance. This computer-
CitiZeN’S
VIEW
Karen Delaney
based program has captured information on the college admissions decisions for more than
3,000 Lake Oswego students.
This data is plotted on scattergrams (graphs) by high school
for each college. A Lakeridge
student, for example, can see
the scattergram for all Lakeridge applicants to Stanford
but not for LO High applicants
to Stanford; and
• Scholars’ Alliance. Selected
families pay $400 a year for
Scholars’ Alliance college counselors to prepare college applications that promote the students’ participation in this
LOSD academic program.
After gathering this data, the
next step is to identify and compare “similarly situated” applicants. This is the same approach I applied in lending discrimination complaints against
FDIC-supervised banks. Where
two applicants are alike in all
relevant ways yet one is treated
differently, other factors must
be considered as determinative.
In reviewing our school district’s publicly available records, I do not find any effort
to use the Naviance or Scholars’ Alliance data to compare
similarly situated students.
The absence of this analysis
leaves LOSD parents questioning whether their teens have
fair and equal access to opportunities that make a difference
in college admissions decisions.
Instead of engaging in data
analysis, some school board
members simply blame “cul-
ture” for differences between
Lakeridge and LO High. In this
context, “culture” becomes a
euphemism for the way parents
raise their children. Where I
grew up such talk of culture’s
impact on outcomes at segregated schools would have started a race riot. “Culture” ignores
variables that are more logically related to public education
and controllable, such as high
school rankings, name recognition and counselor intervention.
As your elected representative on the
school board, I will collaborate on data-driven evaluations of resources at both high
schools so we can improve student success.
Protecting confidentiality of the Naviance data and
student privacy will be a priority during this process. The results will ease the tremendous
stress of college admissions.
For example, the Scholars’
Alliance program has been
marketed to parents for years
yet has never advertised itself
based on quantifiable measures
of success. Parents have depended upon word-of-mouth to
justify the $400 annual fee and
substantial time commitment.
This situation may be due to
ownership of its “intellectual
property.” On Aug. 23, 2010,
John Wendland proposed a
“slight rewording” of the school
superintendent’s employment
contract to “clarify” that Dr. Korach is “entitled to benefit financially” from past and future
materials developed for Scholars’ Alliance. Wendland’s wife,
Lisa, is a private college counseling specialist who works for
Scholars’ Alliance.
As your elected representative on the school board, I will
push for a clearer public understanding of the relationship between the LOSD and Scholars’
Alliance. More importantly, if
we establish that it provides
measurable benefits in college
admissions, I will advocate to
utilize its conceptual model as
part of the programs at both
Lakeridge and LO High so all
students can take advantage of
it.

My family and I are thrilled to live in such a great
town, with wonderful people, and we absolutely love
our schools. We moved here for the beauty of the town,
but especially for the excellent academics.
Our schools aren’t excellent by accident. It begins
with vision, strong leadership and expertise at the superintendent and school board levels. That’s why I am
voting for Kevin Robertson Lake Oswego School
Board, Position 2.
Kevin is a strong choice with his years as an elementary, middle and high school parent. Kevin’s firsthand
experience with all grades will offer him a deeper insight when making decisions for our school district.
Kevin Robertson has a proven commitment to Lake
Oswego shools. He does not have a special interest
agenda, he speaks for all students. Kevin understands
and values what we have done well to this point and
can use that as a strong foundation to take our district
further into the 21st century with Common Core standards and science, technology, engineering and math
(STEM), etc.
Please join me and many others: Vote for Kevin Robertson for Lake Oswego School Board, Position 2.

Howell ‘will work for the
best interests of our schools’
I grew up in Lake Oswego and graduated from Lakeridge. After my first child was born, I couldn’t think of
a better place to raise and educate my own children.
I am supporting Sarah Howell for school board because I trust she will work for the best interests of our
schools. Even before her own children attended
schools in the district she was a productive and positive member of the community, taking the time to listen and learn about best practices in education.
She understands how the school board itself works
and will make an immediate contribution. Most importantly, I know Sarah and her husband, Andrew, on a
personal level; they are genuinely kind, honest people.
Sarah is a leader and a true advocate for all our students. No doubt she will employ her countless invaluable qualities on our school board.
Please vote for Sarah Howell.

Four generations support Hartman,
Robertson and Wendland
Like many who call Lake Oswego home, we believe
exceptional schools help make our community great.
Our family has 68 years as LOSD teachers, 35 years as
LOSD classified staff and has worked at 10 different
schools in the district, on both sides of the lake. We are
proud to have eight graduates and four future graduates of Lake Oswego schools.
During this time of budget restraints, new mandates
and leadership transition there has never been a
greater need for experienced leaders to serve our
school board on behalf of all schools and all students.
That is why we are voting for Liz Hartman, Kevin
Robertson and John Wendland. In order for our district to continue its excellence and continue creating
well-rounded, well-educated students, our district
needs experience, vision and the ability to strategically
address challenges.
Since our first family member began teaching at
Forest Hills in 1966, we have directly seen the need for
and benefit of experienced school board members who
have an interest in all students, and all schools, and
who have the ability to navigate uncertainty with a calculated and steady approach.
We encourage you to join us in voting Hartman,
Robertson and Wendland.

Re-elect Wendland to school board
Please join us in supporting John Wendland’s reelection to the school board.
At this time of transition, we need a strong leader
with experience as a parent at all grade levels in the
district who understands the issues all our schools
face. His collaborative style unifies students, teachers,
administrators and staff. John knows the district inside and out — as a past student, as a parent and as
board chairman.
This insight is invaluable for fiscal decisions and the
hiring of a new superintendent.
We feel confident in John’s abilities to navigate
through whatever challenges lie ahead. John gives our
district the strongest chance of continuing and improving on our record of excellence — from grade school
through high school. His business acumen makes him
very financially prudent. There will be many tough decisions ahead, shaping our district for years to come.
John is unafraid of making them.
John has no special interest ties or issues; he simply
loves Lake Oswego schools with a passion that serves
all of us for the better. Lake Oswego schools are better
today and will be better in the future because of John
Wendland.

Robertson would be
‘a valuable addition’
Kevin Robertson would be a valuable addition to the
LOSD Board of Directors.
Having served on the board for eight years, I am
aware that school parity and financial challenges require not just commitment but experience and financial knowledge.
Kevin has those skills and experience. I urge you to
vote for Kevin.

Robertson is the
right vote to cast
promises. As a financial manager for more than 30
years, Kevin has a deep understanding of the budget
challenges facing all public school districts. He is putting forward ideas for innovation and improvement
that benefit all our children while understanding we
need to always plan on the funding for these programs.
His opponent, Sarah Howell, seems to promise a
new program every week based on whatever group
she is seeking votes from. Last week it was elementary
PE specialists. Her claim that this will cost less with
six schools instead of nine just doesn’t add up. We
closed schools to save classrooms and teachers. With
the same amount of classes taking PE we need the
same number of specialists. This week she promised
more learning assistants for special needs children at
$40,000 to $50,000 each. She wants new foreign language and immersion programs for all. We have a budget deficit — where is all this money coming from?
We are voting for Kevin Robertson. He will be fiscally responsible and bring realistic innovation to our district. He doesn’t promise things we can’t pay for.

Wendland is passionate
about Lake Oswego schools
We have had the privilege of knowing John Wendland and his family for 10 years and have witnessed
firsthand his commitment to our community and passion for our schools.
Outstanding character, integrity, enthusiasm, diligence and eagerness to listen and
help are just a few of the traits that describe John’s
wonderful personality.
As chairman of the school board, John played a vital
role in reconfiguring our elementary schools so that
resources were better utilized, teachers were preserved and class sizes remained amongst the smallest
in the state. These decisions were extremely difficult
and delicately made. While it is always sad to see
schools close, Lake Oswego was able to start the
school year with a full teaching staff.
Other districts in the area were not as quick to react
to the adverse economic environment and began the
year by laying off hundreds of teachers.
With the search for a new superintendent and continued financial woes, we face challenges ahead that
require innovative and responsible thinkers like John
Wendland leading the way.
Please join us by supporting John Wendland for
Lake Oswego School Board, Position 3.

Robertson ‘has proven
leadership skills’
I have known Kevin Robertson for many years.
We met through our involvement with the Lake
Oswego School Foundation. He recently completed his term as president of the foundation, presiding over another successful fundraising campaign in a very challenging environment.
I know Kevin to be intelligent and possess a
passionate vision for our school community. His
business experience is a valuable asset as we increasingly face how to best leverage our limited
financial resources to provide our children with
the highest quality education experience possible.
Kevin has proven leadership skills and has
effectively worked with others in the school
community. He has been instrumental in getting the foundation endowment fund established and funded. We are fortunate to have
people in our community that have contributed
generously to this fund. The endowment
fund will provide ongoing financial support for
our schools.
Kevin works in a collaborative way and has
given generously of his time and skills. I urge
you to support Kevin with your vote. We are indeed fortunate to have many quality people running for the school board.
Kevin is simply the best of the best.

Count us as Wendland supporters
We are pleased to add our names to the wellspring of community support for re-election of
John Wendland to the Lake Oswego School
Board. Our family has known the Wendland family as neighbors and our college-aged children attended LO schools together since elementary
school.
John has been keenly interested and
engaged in efforts to maintain the quality of our
schools for many years. He brings to the complex
challenges faced by our school board both a comprehensive and detailed understanding of district policies, operations and finance.
John is a balanced listener. He carefully considers the available data and perspectives
throughout the community before making the
difficult choices that need to be made in these
challenging economic times. Changes that make
sense for the district as a whole will not always
make all families happy. We were impressed by
John’s strong leadership when reconfiguring
schools was necessary. We urge you to re-elect
him.

‘If a city doesn’t go forward,
it goes backward’
I bought a home in Lake Oswego because it is
a city that has put in the “nice to have” amenities, and I suspect I am not the only one. Where
would we be if former city councils did not build
Foothills Park, Millennium Plaza Park, other
parks, put the flowers in the islands in the street,
buy Luscher Farm and the many other projects
that have made our city one of the best in the
country?
Certainly streets need to be maintained, but I
am willing to pay more taxes if it means Lake Oswego can move forward. If a city doesn’t go forward, it goes backward.
Dave Berg needs to read the “Golf and Tennis
Feasibility Study.” If he did, he would know that
the new tennis center will be paid for by the tennis players, not the taxpayers, and 19 percent of
the Lake Oswego population plays tennis, not 1
percent.
The current facility is grossly inadequate and
cannot be enlarged. Hence, a new center is very
much needed.
All the council needs to do is give the “go
ahead” to the parks and recreation department.
Preliminary plans have already been developed
and there is money in the coffers that has been
collected as court fees over the past several
years. The bonds for the current facility have
long since been paid off by the tennis players.

Robertson is a strong
candidate for board
Lake Oswego is fortunate to have many qualified candidates running for school board.
I am voting for Kevin Robertson because of his
financial and business experience and long history with the school foundation. We need to figure
out how to preserve our excellent schools in the
face of a significant budget deficit over the next
three years.
Our next school board will choose the new superintendent. That decision is probably the most
important one that members will make in their
term of office. We need both the experience and
wisdom that Kevin Robertson brings to the
school board.

Delaney is the right choice for

Karen Delaney has our full and enthusiastic
support for Lake Oswego School Board.Karen
has consistently shown that she is an independent advocate for the best interests of our district
and its students. She values transparency over
politics and will work to rebuild the trust lost in
our district, while improving the relationship between the school board and its constituents.
As a parent of three children in the school district, Karen has tirelessly volunteered her time
and talents, leading programs across schools
and grade levels including school auctions, literacy groups, Girl Scout groups at the elementary
and middle school level and coordinating the
ACS mock interview program at the high school
level.

The knowledge and experience Karen brings
from her career in law and finance fills a void
that has been present on the school board for
many years. Karen will bring good governance
as a thoughtful, accountable leader who will
tackle decisions with conviction, develop a deep
analysis of the issues facing the district, deliver
detailed oversight of financial responsibility and
focus on our entire community.We urge you to

Robertson earns support
to school board
I support Kevin Robertson for school board
because of his experience working across constituencies in our community, most notably in
leading the LO Schools Foundation.
Establishing the foundation’s endowment was a major accomplishment that will help the entire
district weather financial challenges ahead.
Kevin does not have a vested interest in a
particular school or program. His opponent
Sarah Howell, a parent at Lake Grove Elementary, would have a strong conflict of interest
in the likely case that we revisit elementary
school closing decisions. Sarah has also been
a strident advocate for language immersion.
That single-issue focus concerns me. At a
time when entire elementary schools were
closing due to a budget crisis, Sarah publicly
threatened to remove her children (and their
state-funded revenue) from LOSD unless the
board voted to continue the immersion program that she planned for her children to attend.
Given the difficult decisions that lie ahead,
we cannot afford to hold the entire district
hostage to a program like immersion that
benefits a select few.
We need leaders like Kevin: a balanced decision-maker with an enduring community
commitment, who understands that you stay
in the game even when you don’t get your
way.
Carmit McMullen
Lake Oswego
(Editor’s note: Sarah Howell responds to the
two direct charges: “My family moved to and
has stayed in Lake Oswego because of the great
schools. Research shows that among the best
practices for high-achieving districts, world language programs are a key component. These
programs give our entire district a competitive
edge and help prepare students for the global
economy. This program should be a high priority and it is one I’m proud to have advocated for.
It’s one of the many great things that will keep
students in our local schools and help students
get ahead. Innovative programs like these attract new students and young families to our
district. With new families, our schools benefit
because state tuition dollars follow them. Our
current school board agrees: They chose to adopt
the world languages program on its own merits
as a low-cost, beneficial program. My website,
SarahForLOSD.com, discusses my views in
more detail.
“With regard to a conflict of interest for school
closures because my children go to a district
school — all members of the school board with
children in the district have the same conflict —
including my opponent.”)
Howell ‘is not a
one-issue candidate’
I urge Lake Oswegans to support Sarah Howell
for LO School Board. Sarah is an intelligent, savvy professional and parent.
In advocating for foreign language immersion,
Sarah showed her perseverance and her commitment to help our children succeed in a global
economy. Her goal is to maintain and expand the
excellent educational services that our children
need and our parents expect.
A parent of young children, Sarah is looking at
the long term — an important quality in a board
member.
Sarah is not a one-issue candidate. She is an
independent thinker with valuable marketing
skills. Sarah researches topics thoroughly, listens to multiple opinions and sees the big picture. Whether agreeing or disagreeing with another person, Sarah expresses her views in an
articulate and well-mannered way.
Sarah’s energy, enthusiasm and fresh perspective are just what’s needed as LOSD faces new
and ongoing challenges.
Please join me in voting for Sarah Howell.

Two great candidates; we are
backing Robertson
Our town is fortunate to have two terrific candidates running for Lake Oswego School Board,
Position 2.
We are displaying a Kevin Robertson sign in
our yard. He is the most qualified. Kevin has
strong business experience, a broad community
vision and experience with each level of K-12 education.
Bottom line, it does make a difference in life
experience, perspective and humility gained by
parenting a high school kid or two. Given our
school district’s continued cost cutting and financial management needs, it is imperative that our
school board members have financial acumen
and a deeper broader perspective. Additionally,
Kevin is the only candidate with high school students.
As a community, we can count on Kevin Robertson to be a strong advocate for the schools at
every level, to be financially prudent yet creative
and to be a “big picture guy.”
I hope that the other candidate runs again
down the road. For right now, however, we need
Kevin.
Michelle and Mark Dorman

Robertson ‘clearly is
a team builder’
I had the pleasure of meeting Kevin Robertson
a few weeks ago and was absolutely impressed
with his approach as an LO School Board candidate. Kevin is clearly a team builder and his credentials are unmatched. As one of the driving
forces behind the creation of the LO Foundation
endowment and having served eight years on
the foundation board, Kevin has had the foresight to see that there would always be a budget
shortfall and the perception to understand that
Lake Oswego parents are not willing to sacrifice
our high standards of education for the want of
funding.
His financial expertise and business acumen
undoubtedly play into his problem-solving approach. Having two children in high school, he
has been through the elementary, junior high
and high school years and has a firm handle on
the schools at all levels.
Kevin has the passion to keep our schools the
best they can possibly be and the experience lead
the charge in the right direction. I am eager to
cast my vote for Kevin Robertson for Position 2
of the LO School Board.

Boones Ferry Road in Lake Grove.
If the city gets the grant, the money would

voters last November and urban renewal

Bill aims to block stafford composting facility
By PAtrICk MAlee
The Review
In an effort to halt a controversial
composting facility in the Stafford area, Rep. Julie Parrish, R-West Linn, has
stepped on board and is taking legislative action.
Parrish submitted a bill on Monday that
would prohibit the construction of any
compost disposal site within 1,500 feet of a
school.
The S&H facility, planned at 3036 SW
Borland Road in the Stafford triangle,
would sit near Stafford Primary and Athey
Creek Middle schools. It would be used to
process yard debris, wood waste, vegetative food waste, produce waste, vegetative
restaurant waste, vegetative food processor byproducts and crop waste into compost, which could then be used in products
sold at S&H’s retail site, which is located
across the street. It would not compost
food waste such as meat scraps or other
animal products.
While the county approved the project
in February, S&H still must obtain additional permits from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality.
At a February open house hosted by the
company, representatives from S&H said
the facility would not stink, and that it
would not have “rotting carcasses” or
“smelly meat.” Yet nearby residents and
West Linn-Wilsonville School Board members have expressed an array of concerns,
the odor of the facility being just one of
them.
In response, Parrish put House Bill 3527
together.
“As a general rule, I am very pro-land
use and property rights for landowners,”
Parrish said. “But there is a problem in our
land use laws that would let this type of
facility be sited directly next to schools.”

Ask A Cop: abandonment issues
Editor’s note: Every week a Lake Oswego police officer answers your questions in this space. Send questions to Reporter
Cliff Newell at [email protected] or call him at
503-636-1281, ext. 105.
I reported an abandoned vehicle in my neighborhood.
Now, two days later, it’s still there. Do I need to call again?
You actually do not need to call again. Depending on the situation it can take a week or up to a month to
get a car moved either by the owner or by towing.
In any case, it is doubtful that the situation
would be resolved in only two days.
Lake Oswego Code (LOC) 32.06.076 prohibits storing of a vehicle on a public road for
more than 72 hours. Even if you’ve seen the
car there for a week or more, that time doesn’t
start until the responding officer notes the
car. Storing a vehicle is only a citable offense
phillps
(we can issue a parking ticket but we cannot
tow). So after three days the officer should return and cite the
vehicle for “Storing,” which is a $15 fine.
Generally at this time, the officer will also affix an orange
sticker notifying the owner that the officer will tow the vehicle
as abandoned after 5 days. In 5 days the officer should return
and tow the vehicle.
This general timeline can be different on a case-by-case situation and dependent on officer discretion. For instance, if the
vehicle is in a residential neighborhood but is registered in another city or state, I might affix the orange sticker on the first
day I am on scene. Especially if the registration is expired, the
vehicle has two flat tires, or it displays obvious evidence of having sat a long time such as an accumulation of leaves or debris.
If the vehicle is parked in front of the residence it is registered
to, I would probably just go knock on the door and advise the
owner of the ordinance for moving the vehicle every 72 hours.
It is possible that a vehicle could sit longer than 5 days without being towed after the orange sticker is attached. For instance, if someone is house sitting and the car owner is out of
town for a couple of weeks we might not tow. We want to be very
careful about respecting people’s rights to personal property,
although they may still get a $15 “storing” ticket.
Of course, if a car constitutes a safety hazard, it would probably be towed immediately.
So, after two days you don’t need to call. But you certainly can
call if you want to know the reason a car is still sitting after
several days. Please have the license number or the date you
originally called, it makes it a lot easier for the dispatcher to look
up the incident.

PACERnoteS
By Celeste Nahas
Farewell, Lakeridge
I
wanted to write a graduation speech because I knew if I didn’t sit down and reflect on my four years at Lakeridge High
School now I would never get the chance
to. At least not in the same way, when memories are still fresh and I still consider Lakeridge a tiny universe that I belong to. And
perhaps always will.
So when I sat down to write my speech, I
wanted it to be profound. I wanted to sum up
everything about high school and pack it into
a suitcase, carrying it with me onto the shiny
train of the future and say: “This — this right
here — was my time at Lakeridge High
School! Wasn’t it great? Didn’t I do well?”
I kept typing all the clichés I knew were only half-truths. The reliable, lackluster themes
kept surfacing: never giving up on dreams,
being eternally grateful for teachers and parents, finding inspiration in the world at large,
becoming a family.
Words like compassion and engagement
kept circling through my mind as if I was
short-circuiting. I began to worry that my writing skills had atrophied — and that I wouldn’t
be able to convey anything earth shattering.
I decided to turn off my laptop and scribble
whatever came to mind. I found myself sketching the school itself, compartmentalizing the
rooms I took tests in — the caverns of the lower B wing, the eerily quiet language lab.
I remembered that I love the way sunlight
fills the main hallway in fall and late spring.
This is the building in which I read some of
my favorite books, met some of my closest
friends. In this spot (Right here!) I learned
what it means to bleed Pacer blue.
As I sketched, what surfaced were the feelings I carry with me on my back, in the bottom of my book bag, as I walk the halls of Lakeridge day after day. I realized: It’s impossible
to synthesize the gradient that is high school
into compact and profound truths. Real life,
the day-to-day at Lakeridge, isn’t always vibrant with significance. There were the books
we SparkNote-ed and games we lost. Sunday
afternoons spent typing book reviews, loose
ends that never got tied up. Research papers
with incorrectly notated footnotes and chemistry problems with incorrect units. School
lunches that left a little (a lot) to be desired
and libraries we were banned from. Debates
that started in Friday’s English class and ended the following Wednesday over coffee.
My best friends turned out to be the people
who shared the most Goldfish crackers with
me. My favorite class ended up being the one
in which I scored lowest on tests. My most
memorable conversation was with a custodian who told me, “Senioritis is a choice.” I’m
not entirely sure I agree with that.
What I’ve learned is that the whole idea of
a “penultimate moment of high school” is
more fiction than fact. Time circles like an unbroken arc, a swooping seamless mirage —
and it seems likely that we will arrive at this
same moment four (or five ... or six ...) years
from now. Again and again. We are not meant
to be stagnant.
The home we made out of Lakeridge is a
place of converging worlds. A place of basketball and theater and a weird, wired chemistry
of fantastic people. A place of shouting and
loudness where I found a few answers but
mostly questions.
Lakeridge: A small school in a rich town
outside of a medium-sized city in the state no
one can pronounce. Snug in ludicrous suburbia. It isn’t much, really. A few rooms. A few
hundred memories. Did it change me?
Sometimes in the soft morning light I walk
to my car and feel the uneasiness that comes
with being in control of the rest of my life. At
least partly.
It seems that everything I do now is a potential statement. From the Converse shoes I
wear to the coffee I carry, from the books I
claim to have read to the books I brag about
not reading. We teenagers thrive off what we
can get away with.
We build networks so we feel simultaneously that we know everyone and yet have an
inner circle. We have become surprisingly
apolitical. And unsurprisingly competitive.
As my time at Lakeridge hurtles toward the
finish line, I find myself spending more and
more time at the elementary school across
from my home. Perhaps it is a coping mechanism. Being at the playground resets the
strange mixture of electric excitement and ennui I feel. Or perhaps I go because I still love
swing sets and castle spires.
From the highest tower a view of my neighborhood spills out over the broken black tarmac. A thin slip of a kite hugs the rooftop.
The world spins with the tire swing. I have 20
more days of high school, and, although I
can’t pack up the past four years into a tidy
box and ship them to my next destination —
they will always be with me.

A Lake Oswego High School
student’s talent and hard work
has earned her national awards,
landed her school a computer lab
and snagged her a spot in a juried art show.
Lake Oswego High junior Amy
Chen “is a machine,” said Chen’s art
teacher, Katie Brink.
Lake Oswego High has found a
worthy project for the $20,000 Chen
won for her school by crushing competition countrywide in the seventh
annual Lucerne Art of Dairy Art
Contest last year.
The dollars will transform a defunct dark room at the school into a
computer lab housing 12 to 15 Macs
with Lightroom and Photoshop digital photo editing software. The digital photography class was a casualty
of recent budget cuts, but Brink said
she will be able to enfold photography concepts into her other art
classes when the lab opens this fall.
Chen, 17, tucked her additional
$5,000 into a college fund, and Brink
used her additional $5,000 to buy a
MacBook and iPad to keep her classroom up to date.
“I adore that girl,” Brink said of
Chen. “We spent late Saturday
nights together painting that cow.
Amy’s funny. She’s witty. She’s humble, too.”
Since the Art of Dairy, Chen has
garnered a series of awards while
managing to perform to her academic utmost and help her swim
team claim its own honors.
“I’m not dead yet, so I’m not beyond my capabilities,” Chen said,
then smiled and ducked her head.
Her acrylic, “Crowd,” will hang
in the Lakewood Festival of the
Arts’ juried show, Artist’s Vision-50 Squared. She also plans to
enter a piece in the high school
invitational exhibit at the June
festival.
Chen’s honors include receiving a
Gold Key in the national Scholastic
Art & Writing Awards for her poetry. She also got a Silver Key for a
photo of a light bulb titled “Fluorescence.” That’s not to mention the
national awards last year or the regional Scholastic Art & Writing
Awards.
“She’s received so many Gold
Keys regionally, where many kids
maybe get an honorable mention,”
Brink said.
This year, Chen also got a certificate for superior writing in the National Council of Teachers of English’s Achievement Awards in Writing.
Meanwhile, Chen has taken six

its interior are higher than 18
inches, a fall hazard.
The geodome, which is made
of a network of metal bars, also
has the second-highest hazardous rating because of protruding joints that could snag on
clothing.
“Fall protection is severely
deficient,” the survey report
says.
Drainage issues cause flooding, which affects the geodome
and other play equipment.
“There’s caution tape around
the geodome during the flooding,” Baker said.
The district plans to remove
the geodome this summer but
not to replace it. The geodome
and some monkey bars are
from when the school was built
in 1980. The play structure is
from the early 1990s, Weidlich
said.
Parent Britt Weiler said the
school district should not remove the geodome without replacing it. There’s not enough
play equipment to go around
since Westridge’s population increased after the students from
the now-closed Bryant and Palisades elementary schools
moved in, Weiler said.
Two years ago this spring,
there were 323 students, and
this month there were 462 students, Westridge Principal Scott
Lane said.
Lane said he understands the
district has a finite amount of
money, and he is not sure how
the new playground fits into the
budget plan. He approves of how
the district is devoting personnel to helping the PTSO with the
project, and Lane said parents
are proactive.
Weidlich said parents already
paid for the design and planning
of the project and have collected
a good deal of money, and now
they need help bringing the
project to fruition.
“It’s not just a school park: It’s
a community park,” she said.

the thrill of a high-speed chase.
Advanced Placement physics students designed and built mini-electric
speed boats, adhering to teacher Roger
Allcroft’s size limits and materials
specifications.
“To help them visualize what they
were attempting to do, I built five different boat designs of my own for them to
look at,” Allcroft said.
To construct a course, he fashioned
parallel boat channels from rain gutters. Students switched on their vessels
and watched them zip down the course
late last month.
The finalists in the competition were
junior Kayla Brase and a team of juniors, Elexus Graves and Grace Klinkhammer. The Graves and Klinkhammer boat sped to the finish first in two
out of three runs, winning the first
Electric Speedboat Championship.
“Events like this really show the
strong sense of community here at
Westside,” Graves said. “We helped
one another throughout the process,
shared a meal prior to the event and
cheered one another on.”
Students aren’t done yet. They still

learning and in life,” Allcroft said.

LO boys win district
golf tourney, girls
make it to state
Clayton Madey wins
the individual boys
title while the Laker
girls advance in a
tiebreaker
By MATT SHERMAN
The Review
It was a dramatic and impressive showing for the
Lake Oswego and Lakeridge
golf teams at Stone Creek in
Oregon City last week.
The Lake Oswego boys rolled
to the district title, posting
some incredibly impressive
scores. The Lakers were led by
Clayton Madey who fired a 75
on day one and trailed by four
strokes behind Jake Reiff’s 71.
Madey then posted an incredible round of 67 on Tuesday to finish the tournament at
two-under par for a two-stroke
victory.
“Clayton’s ball striking was
just phenomenal. He was doing
everything well,” Laker coach
Jason Owens said.
Reiff shot another strong
round on Tuesday with a 73
and was the top individual
qualifier for state.
Lake Oswego won the event
over Canby by 25 strokes.
Riley Elmes finished in
fourth place individually with a
two-day total of 145. Alex
Wrenn was close behind with a
147 while Connor Tallman and
Cole Madey each played
rounds for Lake Oswego in the
tournament and finished with
a two-day combined total of 147
as well.
Heading into the state tournament at Trysting Tree in
Corvallis, the Lakers are a
strong contender to capture
another state championship.
“We’re just doing a lot of putting drills and working on
short game to stay sharp,” Owens said. And virtually any one
of Lake Oswego’s varsity players should also pose a signifi-
cant challenge for the individual title as well.
For the Pacers, Cade Lawson
shot a personal best 74 on
Tuesday to finish with a 151
while Jon Grace finished with
an impressive two-day total of
156.
In the girls tournament,
Lake Oswego entered knowing
that it would need to finish in
second place to have any
chance of qualifying the team
for state.

up topping Canby by 15 strokes.
Alexa Huewe led the way for
the team, continuing her
strong second half to the season. She got off to a very strong
start with a 39 on her opening
nine holes.
“Alexa’s been hitting the ball
really well. She just needs to

hole,” coach Mark Shoff said.
Stephanie Bell and Jessica
Lee were steady and consistent

a round for the first time in her

Lake Oswego’s No. 4 position
which helped vault the Lakers
past Canby.
However, with the teams tied
in points, the tiebreaker for

Six Lakers and two
Pacers qualify for
next week’s
tournament
By MATT SHERMAN
The Review
The Three Rivers League
district girls tennis tournament wrapped up last week
and both Lake Oswego and
Lakeridge High Schools will
be well represented at state.
The Lake Oswego girls qualified two singles players and a
pair of doubles teams for state,
including district champions
Caroline Dorman and Blair
Dozois.
“To have six players advance
on to the state tournament is
beyond expectations,” Laker
coach Susan Branam said.
Lakeridge, meanwhile, qualified its top doubles team as
well.
The top four seeds in each
bracket all advanced to the
semifinals in a tournament that
saw only a few upsets.
In singles, Lake Oswego’s
Katie Day and Libby Dozois
earned the Nos. 2 and 4 seeds
respectively.
Day won her first three
matches in straight sets, only
dropping one total game en
route to the semifinals.
Dozois did the same, dropping just one game in her opening match.
In the semifinals, Dozois fell
to the eventual district champion and No. 1 seed from West
Linn while Day fell in a tough
three-set battle to the No. 3
seed from Grant.
In the third place match, Day
knocked off her teammate in
straight sets.
Lakeridge’s Anna Seydel advanced to the quarterfinals in
singles, winning a solid 6-3, 7-6
match in the second round before falling to the No. 3 seed.
In consolation, Lakeridge’s
Alice Chen won four matches,
including the final 6-2, 7-5.
In the doubles bracket, Lakeridge’s Brittany Dales and
Stacey Strovink had the No. 1
seed and had an easy time in
their first three matches, winning each of them in straight
sets.
The No. 2 seed, Lake Oswego’s Blair Dozois and Dorman,
also won three quick matches
on the first day of the tournament, losing just one total
game.
Lake Oswego Celia Moore
and Claire Murphy were seeded No. 3 in the tournament and
cruised early before knocking
off the No. 6 seed 6-4, 6-4, also
earning a berth in the semifinals.
On Thursday morning,
Moore and Murphy then
knocked off Dales and Strovink
7-6, 6-1 and would take on their
teammates, Dozois and Dorman in the finals after that
pairing won a solid match 6-2,
7-5.
Dorman and Dozois would
win the final in straight sets
6-3, 6-2.
“It was fun to sit back and
watch them relax and play. I
think all four of them considered themsleves winners when
it was over,” Branam said.
Dales and Strovink would
rally to win the third-place
match in a tough three-setter
6-0, 3-6, 6-4.
Lakeridge’s Katie Ellis and
Kristin Taylor made the quarterfinals in doubles with two
strong victories as did Lake Oswego’s pairing of Holly Mindemann and Morgan Reno.
In the consolation bracket,
Lake Oswego’s team of Elle
Meyer and Natalia Perry
topped Lakeridge’s Kate Kitto
and Shea Northfield 6-4, 6-4 in
the final.

Laker baseball team Lakeridge baseball
looks to finish strong clinches playoff spot
LO continues its
winning streak by
completing a sweep
of Canby
The Pacers win their
series with Oregon
City to lock down a
top-three finish
By MATT SHERMAN
The Review
By MATT SHERMAN
The Review
The Lake Oswego baseball
team capped a sweep of Canby last week with a 9-2 victory. In the series, Lake Oswego gave up just a total of four
runs.
The Lakers scored twice in
the top of the first, getting an
RBI single by Reid Penney to
plate Jack Anderson and then
an RBI ground out by Travis
Sanders.
On the mound, Jack Kjemhus was strong again, allowing
very few hard-hit balls by the
Cougars. Lake Oswego broke
the game open in the top of the
third.
After Horak was hit by a
pitch, Penney reached on an error. Sanders and Mitch
McLaughlin followed with
back-to-back RBI doubles and
Calvin Hermanson hit an RBI
single to cap a four-run inning.
Hermanson joined the team
midseason and has been working his way into the line-up. He
may also help shore up the
team’s pitching staff which has
been hurt by injuries this year.
Canby scored twice in the
fifth inning but Kjemhus
worked out of the jam and received plenty of support on offense.
“Our pitching’s been terrific.
The Lakeridge baseball
team has made the playoffs
in recent seasons but it has
needed to win a play-in
game to do so.
However, with one series
still left to play, Lakeridge
clinched a top-three finish in
the league by winning its final
two games with Oregon City
last week. The Pacers lost a
tough opening game of the series last Monday and knew
they could ill-afford to lose another game to the Pioneers.
The game went back and
forth to start with Lakeridge
breaking a 4-4 tie on a solo
home run from Jack Daraee.
REVIEW PHOTO: VERN UYETAKE
Lake Oswego’s Jordan Horak had six strikeouts in the Lakers’ 7-1 win
over West Linn on Monday.
Lake Oswego got on the
board in the second inning
with a two-run home run by
Harrison Reece.
The Lakers then chased
West Linn’s starter after posting a four-run third inning.
Sanders had a two-run single
to plate Anderson and Horak
and McLaughlin would follow
with an RBI single.
The Lakers will finish up the
regular season this week
against West Linn and will play
a non-league game against
Bend to try and stay fresh for
the playoffs.
“It’s a long lay-off so you just
have to hope you’re doing the
right things to keep your guys
hungry,” Anders said.
Pacer boys lacrosse
holds on for win over LO
A fast start and
strong fourth quarter are enough to
top an improving
Lake Oswego team
By MATT SHERMAN
The Review
The Lakeridge boys lacrosse team fended off a valiant effort on Monday by a
Lake Oswego team that has
come on strong late in the
regular season.
The Pacers had an emotional
start to the game, rattling off
four goals in the first five minutes to take control early.
Prior to the game, Lakeridge
had a moment of silence to
honor player Brandon Kuhnert’s father, who recently
passed away of cancer.
“It was definitely an emotional atmosphere but Brandon
wanted to play and we’ve dedi-
cated the season to him,” Pacer
coach Curt Sheinin said.
Lake Oswego withstood the
early storm and re-upped its
energy on defense and started
to shift the momentum heading
into the second quarter.
Trailing 4-0 still, Lake Oswego controlled much of the second stanza and scored four
goals of its own, cutting the
lead to 5-4 at the half.
“I was a little disappointed at
how we let down for a bit,”
Sheinin said.
Lake Oswego continued its
strong play into the third quarter and started to sense a potential upset. However, Lakeridge was able to rally, controlling possession late in the
third period and clung to an 8-6
advantage with one period to
play. The Pacers have yet to
lose to an Oregon opponent
this year but have had periods
where a brief lapse in concentration has allowed other
teams to rally against them.
To Lakeridge’s credit, the
team has always been able to
rally quickly and that was the
case against the Lakers.
“As a coach it kind of makes
you pull your hair out. It’s a
dangerous way to go about
things and we’ve been working
on putting together a full 48
minutes,” Sheinin said.
Playing with a renewed
sense of urgency in the fourth
quarter, the Lakeridge defense
rose to the challenge and shut
Lake Oswego out for the final
12 minutes, scoring four unanswered goals to lock down the
win.
For Lake Oswego, the win
follows an impressive 10-9 victory over a strong Clackamas
team that previously beat the
Lakers this season.
The Lakers were able to find
the net against a strong Cavaliers’ defense and knotted up
the season series.
With a win over Canby to
close out the regular season
and a Lakeridge win over
Clackamas, Lake Oswego and
Clackamas would finish tied
for third place in the league.

“Jordan just keeps getting

Qualifying Heat on Saturday
evening, Lakeridge HS Sophomore Phoenix Susak & LOHS
Sophomore Leon Beltran
Laborde brought home the
Bronze Medal on Sunday in a
hotly-contested race. Gorge
Rowing broke away from the
pack early & won Gold. However, 3 of remaining 5 boats
were closely-spaced in a race
for the final 2 medal positions.
In dramatic fashion, over the
final 250 meters, Burnaby Lake
& LOCR broke away from the
Vashon Island boat to claim the
medals.
Another highlight for the
team was that, by virtue of
their high ranking at Brentwood among American boats,
both the LOCR Mens’ 8+ & 4x+
were invited to the prestigious
Opening Day Regatta in Seattle
on Saturday, May 4, an event
featuring both high-level University & High School boats.
Given the tighter race schedule
at that event & because all 4
Rowers & the Coxswain in the
4x+ were also in the 8+, LOCR
will race the 8+ at Opening
Day.

For a school-aged rower in
the Pacific Northwest, the
toughest competition faced
during the Spring Season is at
the Brentwood Regatta in the
beautiful setting of Mill Bay,
BC. This event, the largest
school-aged Regatta on the
West Coast, features not only
17 of the American Clubs & Private Schools that form Lake
Oswego Community Rowing
(LOCR’s) season-long competition, but also 20 very strong
Canadian Clubs & Private
Schools. More than 1,500 athletes represent these 37 teams.
And, many of the Canadian
teams regularly practice &
compete in the open salt-water
conditions also found on the
1,500 meter course at Brentwood School.
So, for a smaller Club like
LOCR, success at Brentwood is
rare & truly savored. Medals
are very hard to come by, with
only a few of them sprinkled
over the history of the LOCR
Youth program. During Qualification Heats for Finals at last
weekend’s 2013 Brentwood Regatta, LOCR qualified 11 boats
through to the Finals, a fantastic outcome.
The Varsity mens’ team had
the strongest showing (9 boats
reaching the Finals out of 16
entries), including the 4x+, JV
4x+, 8+, JV 8+, Lightweight 4+,
& Ltwt. 8+ in the All Ages (‘A’)

April 20 was a happy day for the McAlister clan and their friends when they celebrated the return of the tombstone of
Samantha McAlister. At the left are Bruce McAlister and Karen Offen, and on the right are Sarah DeMerritt, who discovered
the stone, and her dog, Jo. Right, the tombstone of Samantha McAlister somehow ended up in Lake Oswego for many years.
But now it is back where it belongs in the Eugene Masonic Cemetery.

of the greatest pioneer women
of Oregon. Now it stands where
it was first set down in 1896.
It has been a strange story,
but it ended with a lot of people
glad all over.
“Most of the relatives there
had never met each other before,” said Karen Offen, a McAlister descendant. “When we had
the tombstone back I started
contacting relatives all over the
country. This was a great excuse
for everyone to get together.”
There was one nonrelative at
the event, but she was responsible for everything that had come
about. Sarah DeMerritt likes to
take her camera and wander
around Lake Oswego looking for
history in the most unlikely
spots. By discovering the McAlister tombstone, she hit the jackpot.
“I was really honored and
moved that I was invited,” DeMerritt said. “I felt really good.
It’s amazing that all of this came
about just from one little exploration. After I first found the
tombstone everything just snowballed.”
“Sarah is quite a character,”
Offen said. “Everyone was so interested in what she found.”
This tombstone story began in
July of last year, when DeMerritt was ambling around trying
to find interesting items to photograph. She was especially interested in seeing what was on
Kruse Farm, one of Lake Oswego’s most significant historical
sites, since the property was in
the process of being sold to
Gramor Development. Almost
everything DeMerritt saw near
an old barn was rubble. Except
for one intact gravestone with
the name Samantha McAlister
on it.
At this point DeMerritt turned
into a history detective. How
had the stone been moved from
the Eugene Masonic Cemetery
to Lake Oswego? This was a
question nobody has been able
to answer. But by acting quickly
DeMerritt was able to determine
“She pioneered our family
tradition of going to college
and university, all because
she insisted that her
children go to universities.
She moved all over the
Northwest establishing
schools and churches.”
— Karen Offen
the old stone’s future. She contacted the Eugene Masonic
Cemetery Association, the Clan
McAlister and the Lake Oswego
Historical Society, and soon
things were moving quickly. DeMerritt and the tombstone even
turned up in a segment that was
shown on KOIN TV.
No one was happier about DeMerritt’s discovery than Offen,
who is a professional historian
and had been collecting her
family’s genealogy since 1969.
At the very time DeMerritt was
strolling around Kruse Farm,
Offen was seeking to find out
what had happened to the missing tombstone of her greatgrandmother.
“I was very amazed and
pleased,” Offen said. “I immediately thought I wanted to get
the tombstone and take it back
to the cemetery.”
It is not often a historian is
able to latch onto a project of
such personal value as this one.
“It was meaningful because
Samantha McAlister was the
first graduate of Portland Academy and Seminary in 1859,” Offen said. “I liked her because
she was a tough lady and adven-
turous. She pioneered our family tradition of going to college
and university, all because she
insisted that her children go to
universities. She moved all over
the Northwest establishing
schools and churches. And she
was born exactly 100 years before I was.”
Offen acted quickly. She contacted her cousin, Bruce McAlister, in West Linn and enlisted
the help of Mary Ellen Rogers,
curator of the Eugene Masonic
Cemetery, who was instrumental
in bringing back the tombstone
to its original resting place.
The next part was tough. The
tombstone was resting on land
that was involved in a transaction, and removing a stone that
weighed 450 pounds was a problem. However, Offen managed to
convince the landowners of how
important the tombstone was to
her family.
The next move involved sheer
strength. Offen had to find
enough muscle to move the big
stone onto a truck and transport
it to Eugene.
Two muscle men who volunteered were Bruce McAlister
and J. Brian Monihan, publisher
of the Lake Oswego Review and
West Linn Tidings.
By sheer good fortune, however, there were two other very
strong fellows available for the
big lift when Offen and her crew
showed up Aug. 18.
“I wrote down in my little
book: ‘Rescue Day!’ ” Offen said.
The little crew’s first stop was
the adjacent parking lot, where
they celebrated and took photos.
Next they stopped by DeMerritt’s house.
“One of the first things we did
was take it to Sarah so she could
see it,” Offen said.
Finally, at the cemetery in Eugene, the tombstone was lifted
by a crane onto its proper place
and cleaned up. Then Offen
started making preparations for
a big party.
At last, the stone had come
home.
“Just amazing,” was Bruce
McAlister’s opinion of the whole
experience. But amazing things
have been happening to him ever since he moved back to Oregon a few years ago.
“I came here and just kept
bumping into my family,” he
said. “And just a few miles away
was the tombstone of my greatgrandmother. It took an amazing chain of events for this to
happen. If not, the tombstone
would have been swept up in a
landfill and forgotten.
“Like those two big, burly
guys. I’m not sure who they
were, but they were absolutely
essential. Otherwise, lifting that
stone would have killed us.”

A little spring rain won’t get the
folks at SpringRidge Court down.
Together with the Charbonneau
neighborhood, the assisted living
and memory care community is
hosting its third annual Walk to End
Alzheimer’s on May 19 — rain or
shine.
The three-mile walk will begin at
SpringRidge Court, located at 32100 SW
French Prairie Road in Wilsonville,
then wind through the Charbonneau
community.
According to Cindy Foster, SpringRidge Court program assistant and
event organizer, the staff started the annual fundraiser to create awareness of
dementia diseases and educate the public. Though there is annual walk in
downtown Portland for the Alzheimer’s
Association, Foster wanted to create a
smaller, similar event in Wilsonville.
The first year the walk raised $2,000
ciation, Alzheimer’s is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory,
thinking and behavior. Symptoms usually develop slowly and get worse over
time, becoming severe enough to interfere with daily tasks.
More than 5 million Americans are
living with Alzheimer’s and one in three
seniors dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia.
“Alzheimer’s has grown so much and
it’s only going to get worse,” Foster said,
adding that more than half of the residents at SpringRidge have dementia.
“It’s such a devastating thing for us to
see. We need to get this horrible disease
cured.”
Along with raising money for the Alzhiemer’s Association, Foster also
hopes to educate participants about dementia, its symptoms and its treatments. There will be staff to talk to and
informational brochures.
“We can’t stop the disease, we can
just challenge as much as we can,” Foster said. “I think a lot of people aren’t
aware. They close their eyes.
“It’s education, but it also takes away

Sunday Dinners
This dish combines several of my favorite foods: salmon, sweet chili sauce, snap peas and pea tendrils and
fresh ginger — what is not to love? It would make a perfect Mother’s Day dinner since it is delicious, quick and
easy to prepare. Enjoy! — BR

3 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
2 tablespoons finely grated peeled fresh ginger, divided
6 6-ounce salmon fillets with skin
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 ounces sugar snap peas, trimmed
1 1/2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
3 cups pea tendrils** or pea sprouts** (about 6
ounces)
1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
Line rimmed baking sheet with foil. Coat with nonstick
spray. Whisk chili sauce, 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1
tablespoon ginger in small bowl. Place salmon fillets,
skin side down, on prepared sheet. Spoon chili sauce
marinade over and let stand at room temperature 30
minutes.
REVIEW PHOTO: BARB RANDALL
A friend of Barb Randall’s shared his ingenius method of weaving bacon into a mat. It can be used as a
platter for serving eggs or rolled up burrito-style filled with cooked eggs, potatoes and peppers.
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
4 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup (packed) golden
brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons sugar
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
Position rack in middle of
oven and preheat to 300 F.
Lightly spray a large baking
sheet with nonstick spray.
Mix next 5 ingredients in a
large bowl.
Combine oil, honey, and sugar in small saucepan; over me-
dium heat, bring to simmer.
Remove from heat and stir in
vanilla.
Pour hot liquid over oat mixture; stir well. Using hands,
toss mixture until thoroughly
mixed.
Spread granola on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until
golden brown, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.
Transfer sheet to rack; cool
granola completely. (Can be
made 2 weeks ahead. Store in
an airtight container at room
temperature.)
(Recipe adapted from Bon
Appetit, March 2002.)
Woven bacon mat
I learned this trick from a
friend — it is sheer genius!
Heat the oven to 400 F.
Weave bacon together and
then place the mat onto a rack
placed on a baking sheet so
that the fat will drip off onto
the baking sheet. Bake for
about 25-35 minutes or more to
your preferred doneness. You
can use the bacon mat to hold
cooked eggs of any kind or
stuff it with fried potatoes,
peppers and scrambled eggs
for a breakfast burrito.

Preheat broiler. Spoon any marinade remaining on baking sheet over salmon fillets. Broil salmon without turning
until browned in spots and almost opaque in center, 6 to
10 minutes, depending on thickness of fillet.
Meanwhile, heat vegetable oil in wok or heavy large
skillet over medium-high heat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon ginger and minced garlic; stir until aromatic, about
30 seconds. Add sugar snap peas and stir until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add remaining 1 tablespoon soy
sauce, rice wine, and pea tendrils and stir just until wilted, about 1 minute. Drizzle with sesame oil.
Place 1 salmon fillet on each plate. Spoon warm pea
mixture over salmon fillets and serve.

in a
crystal
ball
By ChLOe sCOTT
The Review, Tidings
I
inherited a crystal ball from
my famous aunt, Yevonde.
She was famous for her
photography and she was
beloved for her personality.
She had a tremendous sense
of fun and a flair for living. As a
child, I loved visiting her studio
in Berkeley Square in London,
because it was a fairyland of
props for her photographs; objects she had collected from everywhere, like the antique rocking horse with real hair mane
and tail; the stuffed owl; dolls
from various countries from almost life size to babies; a fake
plaster bust of Julius Caesar sitting on top of a tall Greek column; an outsize butterfly net
filled with tiny velvet butterflies.
Everywhere you looked there
was something to catch your
eye; odds and ends of fabric
draped over fanciful furniture
like the wooden stool with cloven hooves for feet and a red
satin sofa shaped like huge
puffy lips.
There were screens with vivid scenes of landscapes painted
on them. A big lion skin rug
complete with teeth-bared snarl
partially covered the floor, and
a zebra skin draped casually on
a giant-size throne. Vondie (as
we called her) never told me not
to touch anything — except
the crystal ball!
The crystal ball sat on a shelf
along with the stuffed owl and
some old Chinese figurines.
When my mother, who was
Vondie’s sister, and I visited her
we sat around one of the decorated tea tables and my aunt
gave us tea and scones. If we
prodded her she would tell us
tales about all the objects. But
the best story was about the
crystal ball.
I had asked her more than
once about the crystal ball and
why she wouldn’t let me play
with it. Usually she just
said, “Well, it’s frightfully rare
and very breakable, and it
would be immensely bad luck
luck if anything happened to it.”
But once she said, “All right.
I’ll tell you the story.”
“Your Uncle Edgar and I
were down in Cornwall,” she began “in a magical part of the
world near King Arthur’s castle,
Tintagel. Every morning we
walked on the crags above the
castle, and sometimes down below on the beach by the sea. On
the beach there was a Romany
encampment, gypsies you
know, with their horse-drawn
caravans and tents and their

wLaCC honors mothers with a Mother’s day tea
By dOug dICKsTON
The Review
WestLinn
The most difficult part of writing
about Mother’s Day is remembering
where to put the apostrophe.
Is it a day of celebration for all mothers (Mothers’ Day), or is a day belonging to a single mother (Mother’s Day)?
To ferret the answer, you must go back
to the event’s founder, a West Virginian
woman named Anna Jarvis.
Two years after her mother’s death
on May 12, 1907, Anna held a memorial
for her mom and embarked on a campaign to make the day a nationally recognized holiday that proved successful
in 1914, and the International Mother’s
Day Shrine was built in Grafton, W.Va
to commemorate the accomplishment.
Luckily, Anna was very specific about
the placement of the apostrophe in the
holiday’s name: it was to be a singular
possessive indicating each family was
to honor its own mother rather than the
plural possessive which would signify a
commemoration of all mothers. Explained this way, the punctuation makes
sense despite not being very intuitive.
In an ironic twist, Jarvis died in poverty, having spent her entire inheritance campaigning against the very
holiday she created. She came to view
the day as too commercial, especially in
the giving of cards and chocolate.
She said, “A printed card means nothing except that you are too lazy to write to

would enjoy a Mother’s day gift of flowers.
the woman who has done more for you
than anyone in the world. And candy! You
take a box to Mother and then eat most of
it yourself. A pretty sentiment!”
Anna never married and had no children herself — perhaps a small ironic
blessing in itself.
Contrary to Anna’s wishes, the West
Linn Adult Community Center will hold
its annual Mother’s Day Tea celebrating all mothers — indeed, all women —
next Monday, May 13, at noon. Out of
respect, we will adhere to Anna’s spelling. Because of the popularity of the
event, we are asking all those who
would like to attend to make reservations ahead of time by paying the $13
fee at the front desk or by calling the
center at 503-557-4704. Tickets will not
be on sale at the door, so time is running out! Everyone is welcome, even
those with Y-chromosomes.
Here are the upcoming week’s activities. Please call the WLACC at 503-5574704 for specific times and possible fees.

ball and said she saw my life
there and she told me many
things about myself and my
fortunes. I thanked her and
then I asked if I could photograph her. She looked a little
sideways, a little funny.
“ ‘Take a picture of an old
woman like me?’ ”she said.
“ ‘What for?’ ”
“ ‘I told her I did it for a living and I thought she was very
handsome and, most important
for a Gypsy, I would pay her. So
she let me.’ ”
Here my aunt stopped a moment, looking thoughtful.
“I went and got my camera”
she continued, “and I came
back and spent quite a lot of
time with her. She was very patient.” ‘I’ll have the pictures
developed when I get back to
London.’ I explained, ‘I’ll bring
them to show you.’ She waved
her hands at me as if she didn’t
care.
“I went home and the pictures turned out to be absolutely magical. She looked like
a seer, a witch, something from
another time. Again, we went
down to Tintagel though I
wasn’t sure I’d ever be able to
find her again. Of course, they
weren’t on the beach any more,
but I asked around and finally
we discovered them camping in
a field a few miles inland. I
asked for her, though I didn’t
know her name. They told me
she was very ill. I explained
why I’d come and they said
she’d want to see the pictures.”
My aunt stopped again, remembering.
She began slowly, “Her
grandson took me into a tent
where they were taking care of
her. She was lying propped up
on a pile of mattresses on the
ground. She didn’t have her
turban on and her long white
hair hung down around her
face. She looked at me and said
nothing. I tried to be cheerful
and I took the photos out of the
portfolio — they were big you
know, eight by tens. She took
them and looked at them, one
by one for a long time. Finally
she said,
“ ‘These are the first pictures of myself I’ve ever seen.
The Old Ones wouldn’t let us
have our pictures taken. It
would take your soul, they
said. And see, you have taken
my soul.’ ”
“I was flabbergasted. ‘No,
no,’ I said, ‘they are just images
of your face.’ But she wouldn’t
listen. She got very upset. Her
grandson tried to calm her.
“ ‘It’s OK, grandma,” he said
over and over. “ ‘They”re just
pictures of your face.
“ ‘The only way I can get
my soul back is to buy it from
you.’ ” she declared.
“No,” I said, “I’ll give them
all to you and you can destroy
them if you want.” Though that
made me feel very bad.
“That’s not enough,” she insisted. “Romero, get my crystal
ball,” she ordered her grandson. She was absolutely determined that I take it because it
had magic properties and was
the only thing she had of worth
that could possibly buy back
her soul. I felt awful, of course
and I tried to talk her out of it. I
tried to give it to Romero, but
he wouldn’t touch it. He was as
superstitious as she was about
some things. I reluctantly gave
him the pictures, and, willy nilly, I became the owner of a
magic crystal ball!”
Vondie got up and lifted the
ball down from its place on the
shelf. She held it out to me,
“Here,”she said, “you can hold
it if you like.” And she put it
into my hand. It felt cold and
heavier than I expected. A
chill ran through me. Did it

The featured artwork showcases a bit of visual sweetness

Three Stagecoach actors selected to perform in London
Kyle Fulton, 15, Amber
Kiara Mitchell, 15, and Alexa Shaheen, 9, performers
from Lake Oswego-based
Stagecoach Theatre Arts,
have been selected from
more than 900 applicants
worldwide to take part in
the program’s London summer production of “West
Side Story.”
The actors will be rehearse
six days a week for three
weeks and then perform a fully staged professional-quality
production of “West Side Story” at the Leatherhead Theatre from Aug. 15 to 17.
The actors are residents of
Lake Oswego or West Linn
and have studied under the tu-
telage of Lisa Mitchell, principal of the Lake Oswego program.
Amber Mitchell began her
Stagecoach training six years
ago while living in England
with her family. “West Side
Story” will be her second production with Easy Stages London.
Fulton and Shaheen have
trained at Stagecoach stages
since the Lake Oswego location opened four years ago.
This will be their first trip to
London.
“Stagecoach showed me
that singing is my passion!”
said Shaheen.
“London is going to be a
great experience!”
“Many amazing mentors at
Stagecoach have had a huge
and positive influence on me
over the last four years and
I’m no excited to meet new
mentors and theater friends
from all around the world this
summer,” said Fulton.
Mitchell said the best part
of Easy Stages London is making friends with “incredibly
talented and fun kids from all
over the world” and working
harder than she has before
with “directors who challenge
and inspire you to be your absolute best.”
Lisa Mitchell opened the
first West Coast Stagecoach
Theatre Arts school in Lake
Oswego in 2009.
Stagecoach students attend
classes each Saturday and receive three hours of training
in acting, singing and dancing.
Mitchell said this training
provides them the skills necessary for musical theater
performing, as well as valuable life skills such as discipline, self-confi dence, perseverance, creativity, problem
solving, collaboration and responsibility.
In addition to the Saturday
classes, the school offers summer camps for children ages 5
through 18.
To learn more about the
program, contact Lisa Mitchell at 503-501-8597 or visit

here are many wonderful
things about Nicoletta’s Table, including the table.
It is long, rough-hewn and
a perfect place for a family to settle
down to enjoy some delicious Italian
food.
The table pretty much symbolizes
everything that Shari Newman aspires to at her
new Italian
STORY BY
delicatessen
at 333 S. State
St. in Lake
Oswego. Wellfed families are happy families.
“I love Italy and I love my family,”
Newman said. “I came here and found
that the previous owner was selling.
All of the pieces fell together.”
Nicoletta’s Table is a labor of love
for Newman, who was already plenty
busy as a wife, mother, successful real estate agent, world traveler, civic
leader and missionary. The final factor was giving her daughter, Rachel
Pinson, the chance to begin her career as a chef.
Actually, Pinson has been a chef
since age 5 when she performed the
astonishing feat of making fried
chicken for her family. Pinson has
been cooking up a storm ever since
because her family chose to have family dinners together as often as possible. And as fresh as possible.
“We even brought our sausage
maker to the beach,” Pinson said.
But originally, she chose to become
a professional in the housing industry. Pinson attained her degree in
housing design and business marketing at Oregon State University in
2008. This, of course, was the year
when the housing industry started to
go belly up.
“I love Italy and I love my family.
I came here and found that the
previous owner was selling. All
of the pieces fell together.”
— Shari Newman
CLIFF NEWELL
Chef Rachel Pinson proudly displays her latest creation of foccacia bread at Nicoletta’s Table.
Opportunities in this field faded
away, so Pinson gradually followed
her inclination and talent to take jobs
in the food industry. One of them was
working with famed Portland soup
chef Jeremy Davidson, owner of the
Portland Soup Company.
Now Pinson is going out on her
own as “Chef Rachel.”
“When the universe speaks, you’d
better listen,” Pinson said.
The universe is wise, because Pinson is already turning out terrific
food at Nicoletta’s Table. Prepare for
ecstasy when you try her lasagna,
and there is so much more. Like fresh
pasta, pizza, zuppa (soup), salsa,
house foccacia, antipasto, panini
sandwiches and more.
If you are lucky you can watch Pin-
son make fresh pasta in a large steel
vat and then use the pasta cutter to
cut the huge flat sheets of pasta into
desired shapes. It is so fun that it’s
more like a toy than a tool.
Newman has gone to great effort to
make her place special. One was acquiring the same kind of coffee maker
that is used by the Pope. There are
only 100 of them in the world. It looks
somewhat like the robot R2D2 in Star
Wars.
“Everything we make here is 100
percent from scratch ingredients,”
Pinson said. “There are no mixes and
no preservatives. It is really rewarding to introduce people to food like
this.”
“Rachel wanted a career that
would feed her soul,” Newman said.
Pinson and Newman are getting
tremendous help from family members who have flocked in to report for
work.
“We’ve known each other forever,”
Pinson said.
The person who should be thanked
for all this is Nicoletta. Yes, there really is a Nicoletta in Italy, and over
the past nine years she and Newman
have become dear friends. Nicoletta
introduced Newman to the joy of Italian cooking, and she has provided
several recipes for the delicatessen.
Someday Nicoletta will come to visit Lake Oswego and see the restaurant that is named in her honor. The
table will be ready for her.

Customers’ needs are kept
on file with details including
how their skin reacts to tanning and if they’re on
any medication.
“We just have to adjust to their skin type, so
they feel comfortable,” manager Michelle Radulesk said.
The place offers other pampering as well, and
there are some deals in honor of moms this
month.
“We’re definitely a good salon to pick because
we have tons of options,” Radulesk said.
Customers can pick up four free tans from today to Monday in celebration of Mother’s Day.
Other services include a detoxifying treatment
called a fit wrap, and laser hair removal could be
a service coming soon. There’s also a red light
treatment, often called anti-aging therapy, which
Radulesk said repairs skin from damage such as
stretch marks and can ease acne and arthritis.
“You kind of have a glow when you come out,”
Radulesk said.
Islands Tanning also offers a line of treatments called VersaSpa, which Radulesk said can

of these treatments, they will be entered into a

Customers receive two raffle tickets for every

“Our owner, Jon Guyette, likes to give back to

Jabbour opens West Linn office of Kids First Pediatric Clinic
West Linn resident
opened new clinic
in February
By BARB RANDALL
The Review
Badia Jabbour, M.D., F.A.A.
P. has opened Kids First Pediatric Clinic at 18603 Willamette Drive in West Linn.
This is the second office for
the practice; the original office
is located on Greenburg Road in
Tigard. Jabbour, who lives in
West Linn with her husband
and children, is board certified
in pediatric medicine and has
been practicing for more than
23 years. The offices offer a
wide range of services for sick
and injured children and to help
healthy children maintain their
wellness. The offices offer same
day sick visits and a separate
waiting room for sick patients;
well child visits, treatment for
injuries, immunizations and
adoption medical consultations
and mother-to-be consultations.
Jabbour is supporting West
Linn’s Safe Route to School Initiative, which encourages children to walk or bike to school
rather than travel by car. In her
Marathon Kids program participants keep track of the miles
they walk or bike with a goal of
reaching 26.2 miles.
“Each day you walk or bike
from home to school or from
home to the store, etc., record
the distance you walked or biked
and have your parent initial next
to it,” she said. “Once you have
walked 26.2 miles, please bring
your log sheet to my office. The
first 100 Marathon Kids will receive a $10 gift card.”
Jabbour sets a good example;
she enjoys walking, biking and
hiking and her own family is active with soccer and other
sports.
“We are big on exercise,” she
said. “I grew up doing it and
have continued. It’s good for
people of all ages to do physical
activity.” She said she focuses
her patients on attaining a
healthy lifestyle to avoid weight
issues and related health complications.
Jabbour spends mornings in
the Tigard office and afternoons
from 1 to 4:30 p.m. at the West
Linn office. Saturdays she is in
the West Linn office from 9 a.m.
to noon. She doesn’t mind the
commute.
“I love working in both communities,” said Jabbour.
New patients are being accepted at both offices. To learn

Clinic, visit kids1stclinic.com or

Housing Act which makes it illegal to advertise “any preference limitation or discrimination
based on race, color, religion,

make any such preference, limitation or discrimination.” Familial
status includes children under
the age of 18 living with parents
or legal custodians; pregnant
women and people securing custody of children under 18.
This newspaper will not knowingly accept any advertising for

IT’S HARD TO KEEP UP
uring the past twelve months,
how many homes have you
sold? Ten, twenty, fifty? How
did you attract the buyers? Which
marketing techniques were most
effective? How did interest rates
affect the selling price? Are discount
points the same today as twelve
months ago?
Each day, the local real estate
market changes. Buyers become
more sophisticated and web-literate.
Interest rates, discount points and
closing costs fluctuate to the tune
of the money markets. New homes
become available and others sell.
Unless you are involved in local
real estate on a daily basis, you’re
likely to find that yesterday’s facts
are today’s fantasies. So if you plan
to sell your home successfully at
the best possible price, you’re going
to need assistance to overcome the
complexities of selling.
Make your choice of a
representative carefully. Areas of
expertise to be considered include 1)
financing know-how and creativity,
2) experience marketing homes like
307469.011509
yours, 3) internet literacy, 4) pricing
expertise, and 5) negotiating talent.
Real estate transactions require a
mix of facts and figures know-how
combined with superior people and
communications skills.
When selling your home, don’t
underestimate the importance of
obtaining strong representation by
an experienced real estate agent.
Remember, you will be competing
against many other homes for the
attention of qualified buyers. Your
agent-advocate can produce just the
right buyer!

Bernard
Bernard arrived at CAT
when his people moved to
a place that didn’t allow
pets. He’s friendly and affectionate and likes to
“groom” his people. He’s
also lived with other cats
and dogs. Bernard would
love to meet you; he confides that he’d do best in a
home without young children, and he’d so appreciate some catnip toys. Meet
him at the Tualatin PetCo

The coming week is likely to see a careful balance
between success and failure for a great many individuals.
Accomplishment will be vying with setback for priority at
all key moments. That which goes as planned this week
can propel one quickly into a new realm of personal and
professional discovery; that which doesn't can provide a
learning experience that must not be overlooked -especially when disappointment mounts. Complications
and confusion may arise from the fact that rewards will
not only go to the winners this week, but the losers, too,
will gain something valuable -- and can come charging
back after only a short period of reflection and
recuperation.Many are likely to find themselves solving
mysteries of widely varying significance this week. The best
clues are to be found out in the open, however, despite what
20109.051508 c
the fiction writers would have one believe! Those who are
willing to play well with others will have a certain advantage
as they put two and two together.
HOW TO PLAY: Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes
must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition.
