When Steve Price first participat-ed in the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Big Climb in 2002, his son Trevor had just been diag-nosed with leukemia a few months earlier.

Upon hearing the news, Price’s friend suggested they participate in the LLS’s annual fund-raiser. They formed two teams of five each. About five months later, Trevor died at the age of 12.

And while Price — who lives in unincorporated King County outside of Redmond — may not have a loved one who could benefit from his participation in the event, he has continued making the annual climb up to the top of the Columbia Tower, Seattle’s tallest skyscraper at 69 flights of stairs, 1,311 steps and 788 feet of verti-cal elevation. In 2004, Price took the lead in organizing the Project Trevor team for the Big Climb, bringing in 115 individuals to participate alongside him. Since then, Project Trevor has had an average of 70-80 people participat-ing in the Big Climb in honor of the team’s namesake. Project Trevor also has bright orange shirts with a photo of Trevor printed on it and a quote from him while he was in the hospital asking whether leukemia is life threatening.

This year’s Big Climb was last Sunday and Project Trevor had 78 climbers participating. Price said this year they raised about $26,000 and placed fourth overall out of all the teams for the amount they raised. Last year, Project Trevor raised about $25,000 and placed first. In the team’s 12 years of participating in the Big Climb, Price said they have raised about $150,000 for the LLS.

Price said members of Project Trevor are a combination of indi-viduals who have been with them year after year and newcomers to the group, but it is always amaz-ing to see how much support they receive every year.

“The sea of orange,” he said, “it says a lot.”

Money raised from the Big Climb goes toward blood cancer research as well as services for local patients with blood cancer.

Anne Gillingham, executive director LLS’s Washington and Alaska chapter, said some of the services they provide for patients include patient support groups and financial aid — anything to help people deal with their diagnosis.

Gillingham said there is no screening or prevention for blood-related cancers so the LLS works aggressively to recruit and retain top researchers to work on finding a cure. She said currently LLS is

Congresswoman Suzan DelBene, who represents Wash-ington’s First District, visited B.E. Meyers Electro Optics in Redmond Monday afternoon as part of a district-wide tour this week to learn more about the current local business climate, understand what makes them

thrive and understand more about what challenges they face and have to overcome.

At B.E. Meyers, DelBene met with a number of employees including Clint Meyers, whose father, Brad, founded the company in 1974. Meyers and his brother Matt are next in line to take over B.E. Meyers, which develops and manufactures op-toelectronic devices primarily

for military and law enforce-ment applications.

During DelBene’s visit, Mey-ers, who manages the compa-ny’s non-lethal division, shared with her the issues they face as a relatively small business competing against bigger cor-porations for government jobs. Some of the biggest obstacles the Redmond business has to

Downtown Redmond has been designated as one of two urban centers for the city and construction throughout the area has shown the neighbor-hood is on its way to achieving this.

A number of businesses such as Graces 5, Olive and Jill’s English Toffee have come and

gone in the last year, but others who have opened up shop are still going strong.

One of those is Rudy’s Barbershop at 16095 Cleveland St., which opened in Septem-ber 2012.

As a new business in the neighborhood, store manager Heidi Vlist said they hope to create more foot traffic along Cleveland Street.

“We are lucky to have neigh-

bors like Top Pot and Zeek’s Pizza. We all have a different service with a similar comfort-able, modern vibe and culture that our clientele appreciate,” she said. “I look forward to the future of Redmond businesses and am confident we can all work together to create and maintain a close-knit commu-nity that draws people in.”

Vlist had worked at other Seattle-area Rudy’s locations

for four and a half years before she became the store man-ager in Redmond. She said the residential and commercial development in downtown Redmond is a big piece of what attracted them to open a store here. Rudy’s is located directly under the Red 160 apartments and Vlist said many of the building’s residents have become “loyal clientele.”

“The construction going on is meant to help all residents and businesses in the future,” she said. “Downtown Red-mond is becoming extremely accessible by having housing located above retail, so people can meet all of their needs with a quick walk or nice bike ride.”

Vlist said for newcomers to downtown, the neighborhood needs businesses that are like-minded in wanting to create a strong sense of community and plan to build each other up.

Rudy’s is already feeling this type of support from Red-mond residents.

“I have always loved and appreciated our clientele, but I must say Redmond clients are really special to me,” Vlist said. “The pure, genuine excitement to have a salon like Rudy’s in the neighborhood makes it fun to come to work every day.”

For Justin Cline, being a part of the community is very im-portant and he plans to do just that with Highscore Burgers, which is located at 8440 160th

Ave. N.E. in downtown and opens today for a soft opening from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. The restaurant will open fully on Monday with hours from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day.

Cline, who owns the four Full Tilt Ice Cream locations in Seattle, said they hope to be good neighbors in downtown Redmond and integrate them-selves into the neighborhood.

With burgers, pinball machines, arcade games, “cocktail” table games and Full Tilt ice cream, Cline described Highscore as “a bar for kids,” but clarified that they hope to create a fun environment for all ages to hang out and meet their neighbors. He added that in the next few weeks, they will be serving beer and wine, as well.

Cline said they wanted to expand to the Eastside as PCC Natural Markets in Redmond is one of their biggest custom-ers and downtown Redmond is “pretty high density…lots of families.”

Throughout the process of opening Highscore, Cline said he was surprised there aren’t more family oriented busi-nesses in the neighborhood since he has seen a lot of kids.

The influx of new businesses has also brought more traffic to long-standing businesses in downtown Redmond such as Half Price Books which has been in its current location at 7805 Leary Way since October 1996.

“We are always happy to have more neighbors join us in downtown Redmond,” said store manager Nathan Blake-ley. “More folks in the area are taking the time to explore and visit downtown, so our store has seen more customers in general.”

Like Vlist, Blakeley said the construction of mixed-use buildings will hopefully bring people to the neighborhood and businesses.

“Ideally we would like to see more people on foot, enjoying a stroll or out for a bike ride visiting area restaurants and shops – especially bookstores like ours,” he said.

On the business down-side, last December, the Graces 5 owners lost their business license due to unpaid taxes. According to a State of Washington De-partment of Revenue order revoking certificate of reg-istration previously taped to the restaurant’s door, the owners owed $38,340.48 in unpaid taxes.

Graces 5 co-owner Tim Sharpe said at the time: “We’re taking a step back. I don’t think this is the end of Graces 5. We’re going to close for a few months, take a deep breath, re-evaluate our situation and get our debt taken care of.”

He added that they’ve met with restaurant consul-tants and may tweak their business plan and possibly relocate within the area, somewhere else in Wash-ington or out of state.

Another health-conscious eatery, Hugo’s Restaurant, now occupies the former Graces 5 spot at 8110 164th Ave. N.E.

Businesses say downtown climate is on the upswing

Last Friday brought the conclusion to the Old Fire House Teen Center’s (OFH) first-ever Red-mond’s Got Talent (RGT) competition, naming Hunter Backlund the winner.

The Redmond High School (RHS) senior performed an original song he had written on the ukulele. As the competi-tion winner, he received a $100 gift card to Redmond Town Center and will be performing on the main stage at this year’s Derby Days festival in July.

Backlund was one of five acts to perform last week. The other four contestants were Eric Klassen, Kendrick Griffin, Sierra Hutton and Kelley Koeppen. Music was the main talent on display with Griffin and Koep-pen singing cover songs and playing guitar and Hutton singing a medley of songs. Klassen brought

some variety to the show with his juggling act and won second place in the competition. Koeppen came in third and Griffin received the audience’s choice award.

At 12, Hutton of Ta-coma was the youngest contestant. She said she entered RGT because it was a chance to perform, which she loves to do, and was “shocked and

surprised” when she ad-vanced to the finals.

“I don’t usually win too many things or get chosen for stuff, so each win or advancement is really cool and exciting,” she said.

All of the performers made it to the final com-petition after a number of elimination rounds that began with online video submissions. Twelve acts were selected from the

initial pool with one alter-nate — Backlund, who filled in after someone backed out of the competition. The 12 performers shared the stage in the semifinal competi-tion on March 8, where four were selected to move on to the finals.

Koeppen was eliminat-ed in the first round but was selected in an online competition based on the number of “Likes” contes-tants’ auditions received on YouTube.

“I shared my video with some friends and family and it spread like wildfire,” the RHS junior said. “I ended up getting the most likes, with over 100 likes. It was so exciting to be voted back into the competition.”

Ken Wong, teen pro-grams administrator for the City of Redmond, said performers were scored on audience response, originality, showmanship,

technical ability and over-all performance. He said the online voting process was a way to keep the audience more involved in the competition.

“The goal of this program was to show-case teen talent, get the audience involved in the process and celebrate the success,” Wong said.

He said RGT — which was sponsored by Red-mond Town Center, REI and Redmond Yogurt Land — was also formed to give teens a public, safe and supportive place to show off their talents.

Koeppen agreed that the OFH is a supportive space.

“I was singing ‘She Will be Loved’ by Maroon 5 and I messed up around the middle of the song and stopped real quick and the entire crowd just starting cheering,” she

said. “It made me feel so great to have all the support and I just kept singing my heart out.”

Griffin, a junior at RHS, has felt the love at the OFH, as well. She had performed at the teen center before and after learning about RGT, de-cided to enter because she has enjoyed her experi-ences so much.

“It’s always so much fun performing at the Fire House and I thought this would be another great opportunity to get experience on stage and perform in front of one of the most supportive audi-ences ever,” she said. “I’m so honored to be a part of this amazing experi-ence and I’d like to thank all the people at the Fire House for putting this together. It was so much fun and an experience I will never forget.”

Lawmakers got some good news last week as state revenue was projected to be $40 million higher than anticipated over the next two years.

While that’s something to cheer about, the Legislature still faces a $1.3 billion shortfall. Even worse, the state Supreme Court is requiring the state to increase education funding by $500 million to $1.7 billion over the next two years.

That means even with an additional $40 million, there won’t be enough money to meet everyone’s wants and needs. And raising taxes won’t be an option, either. Republicans are against it and Gov. Jay Inslee, a Democrat, campaigned saying he wouldn’t approve tax increases.

Bottom line: it’s going to take a bunch of cuts — and then more cuts — to balance the budget.

As the Legislature moves forward in this final month of the regular session, it needs to see its task as more than a numbers’ game. In reality, lawmakers face a moral decision.

Where should the state’s limited resourc-

es go?We think lawmakers need to look first

to the poor and medically fragile. Without state help, they truly have nothing.

More money for higher education also is a critical need. The increases in tuition at our state colleges and universities have priced many — even in the middle class — out of a chance to further their education. Ignoring this will impact our state far into

the future.We know state workers have concerns

over wages and benefits. Believe us when we say that private industry has felt their pain. But given low funds and high needs, lawmakers must first help those who can’t help themselves. This should be the goal of the Legislature.

Money woes: Legislature’s first job

is to help the less fortunate

Thanks for Make-A-Wish fund-raiser article

It’s wonderful to see youth participating in philanthropy and making wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions (not terminal as is suggested in the ar-ticle). As an employee of our local Make-A-Wish chapter, I find all giving inspiring, but particu-larly when it comes from kids helping other kids. Nice work!Jeannette Por ter Tarcha

‘We are a great caring network ’

(In response to Wash-ington Cathedral being forced by its lenders to sell its property — March 22 Reporter.)

I am looking forward to how this will all come together. We have amaz-ing people in leadership and in the congregation. We will still do all the things we are known for.

We are a great caring network.Fiona Monaghan, administrative assistant at Washington Cathedral

All the best to Wash-ington Cathedral. Their outreach for swim les-sons, indoor soccer and basketball, safe harbor parking and support for local homeless folks and as a meeting place for Little League, parent-ing and other support groups is greatly appre-ciated as a major re-source for Redmond.Rich Skinner

Say ‘no’ to state income tax

“We the people” have said before, “No state income tax.” All taxes tax ALL the people. Taxes become operating expenses of business. The business incorpo-rates ALL expenses into prices. So, though you don’t see the tax, you’ll see higher prices. Taxes cause inflation further stymying the economy. Taxes make it harder

for business to succeed. Taxes cause unemploy-ment.

All taxes tax the poor. Taxes on business tax the poor more than direct taxes. Taxes add to a business’ cost base, increasing the margin of profit. A $1 tax on busi-ness becomes $1.20. $1 tax to the poor is just $1.

Our Democrat-controlled government plans to implement a “new tax”; a state income tax and a host of other “new” taxes in addition to the high taxes you already pay! How much will you take? How much can we take? Democrats do not want efficiency and do not want to stop spending your money.

Some taxes are neces-sary, but where does it end? If government would become effi-cient, less tax would be needed. Government inefficiency costs us our hard earned money.

Government never stops wanting more. Say, “no” to new taxes! Say, “no!” to ALL taxes to force government ef-ficiency.Roger W. Hancock

I think about stuff as I drive. It’s my one-on-one business meeting time.

I make my way to Red-mond via State Route 522 from north Seattle each day, and as I drive through Both-ell, the wheels in my mind start turning.

I used to work for the paper there and know all about the city’s downtown revitalization plans. Right now, people are at work behind the chain-link fences, preparing the area near downtown for the re-routing of SR 522 and construction of new buildings for businesses in the former Bothell Land-ing area.

Nearby, a McMenamin’s hotel and entertainment complex will take over the old Anderson School building.

In Redmond, you can see the cranes, which means construction is under way for future downtown housing. Over at Redmond Town Center, new businesses are on the way.

Who knows what the future will bring for new businesses in the downtown

and outlying areas. Will it be what you as

residents would like to see coming to town?

Do you like what you see now — do you frequent local businesses and keep them go-ing in the tough economy?

I may not call Redmond home, but I spend much of my waking hours here and like what I see. There’s a good variety of busi-nesses that have been here for a long time and a

handful of new ones that are giving Redmond a shot.

Some will succeed and unfortunately some won’t. It’s the nature of things and being in the right place at the right time.

So, when you drive around Redmond and see what’s out there, remember to take advantage of your surround-ings.

And if you’ve got an idea for something that you feel would be a good fit for Red-mond, let city officials know about it and maybe they can get the word out.

It’s your voice. It’s your town.

On the business front, do you like what you see in Redmond?

As Katie Ulvestad was perched atop the Greyhawk run, she knew something special was going on down the mountain.

One by one, her St. Olaf College teammates were notching stellar slalom runs. She heard the announcer’s voice in the distance mentioning her college and the skiers’ high place-ments in the standings. And the cheers from the skiers and the crowd got her in the mood to rip into a top-notch slalom performance of her own.

“I was getting feedback on the radio about how the course was running — it pumped me up,” said Ulvestad, a 20-year-old junior. “My team was fast before I ran. I didn’t feel any pressure, I just let it go, I was ag-gressive on the course and it paid off.”

Soon Ulvestad was off, tearing down the mountain toward her teammates waiting for her to join them.

Ulvestad, a Redmond High 2010 graduate, made her mark during the recent alpine United States Collegiate Ski and Snowboard Association national championships at Sun Valley, Idaho, by finishing fourth in the slalom and 15th in the giant slalom and winding up in seventh place overall and earning second-team All-American honors. (She was first-team All-American in the slalom and second team in the giant slalom.)

Thanks to some solid freshmen and depth of the Divi-sion III St. Olaf (Northfield, Minn.) alpine team, the women finished third overall. Combined with the school’s first-place nordic squad, St. Olaf won the national President’s Cup.

Ulvestad, who also competed at nationals as a freshman and sophomore, first strapped on skis at age 3 and began compet-ing at Stevens Pass when she was 7 or 8. During her senior year at Redmond High, she competed for Team Alpental Snoqualmie.

“At first, it was a family vacation thing. When I got into racing, I just got hooked on the sport,” said Ulvestad, who was also part of golf, soccer and track and field teams at Redmond. “You become close to the community of skiers… and there’s never a dull moment.”

St. Olaf freshman Lisa Koetke from Redmond (Interlake High class of 2012) competed in the giant slalom at nationals and earned second-team academic All-American honors this season.

The 18-year-old first took up skiing at age 2 and in high school competed for a club team at Stevens Pass and quali-fied for the Western Region championships. At St. Olaf, she enjoys being part of a team where everybody contributes to its success.

When Koetke’s out on the course, she gets “an adrenaline rush every time I race. I love it, all my memories are attached to racing. I can’t imagine myself not racing.”

Koetke’s brother Paul, a 2010 Interlake graduate, competed at nationals for Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (Troy, NY) and was 10th overall combined in slalom and giant slalom. The second-team All-American’s squad finished sixth overall combined.

Another Eastsider, McKenna McNabb from Bellevue (Forest Ridge class of 2011) was also part of the St. Olaf women’s alpine team, finishing 12th overall and second-team All-American in the giant slalom and overall. She was also a second-team academic All-American.

Maggie Enquist and her Assumption St. Bridget School fifth-grade classmates from Seattle work hard while planting trees on Tuesday near Bear Creek at Friendly Village in Redmond. They worked with the Adopt A Stream Foundation’s Stream Team members to get the job done. The trees will provide shade that helps keep the water temperature cool for salmon.

April is Prevention of Animal Cruelty Month, sponsored by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. This year, let April be a time to think about how you can choose animal food prod-ucts from sources that treat the animals as humanely as possible.

Take eggs, for example. Who doesn’t feel tempted to reach for the cheapest carton on the shelf at the grocery store? But the cost of inexpensive eggs is borne by factory-farm hens destined to pass their lives in small cages shared by a handful of other hens. The SPCA reports that such unnatural conditions compromise the immune systems of these chickens, who become susceptible to illness and an inability to reco ver from injury. And if, like animal advocates, you believe that animals are aware of their pain, then it’s not hard to imagine the stress and suffering these chickens are subjected to.

What can you do to prevent this kind of cruelty? Instead of reaching for the cheaper dozen, ask your grocer to supply cage-free eggs, sometimes called “free range” eggs. An added bonus is that cage-free eggs often come from local producers, a factor that can cut out hidden transportation costs.

Milk is another product that consumers can choose more carefully. Factory-farmed dairy cows are usually artificially kept in a state of lactation until they die, years after they have stopped nursing their young. Neither are they permitted to graze or have what we like to think of as an otherwise normal farm animal’s life. Locally produced milk that is produced in the region by grass-fed cows is a dairy choice that tells industrial farming a big “no” to animal cruelty.

The ASPCA promotes orange as the color to wear in solidarity with all animals who are subject to cruelty as house pets, farm animals, racing and fighting animals, or zoo specimens.

Special to the Reporter

See the rainbow. Taste the rainbow. Throw the rainbow?

On Saturday, Redmond was home to the first-ever Festival of Color at the city’s Downtown Park. The sun-kissed afternoon featured live music, a veg-etable cuisine and a cloud of cotton-drenching colors.

Event vendors served a multi-cultural crowd with fried pastries, seasoned fries and vegetable fritters as rock music rang free in the park.

At around 1 p.m., family and friends tossed shades of the rainbow — colored powder and water — on each other to celebrate

Holi, a springtime festivity in India.

The Vedic Cultural Center, a spiritual center in Sammamish, hosted the

event, which drew more than 1,000 people.

“The Festival of Color is a sacred festival that has been held for thousands of

years. People pray for each other and celebrate that through a playful toss of color,” said Balarama Lila Das, an educator with Ve-dic University at the Vedic Cultural Center.

The Festival of Color promoted community-bridging values, which are noted on its website (http://www.festivalofcol-or.us/); this festival treats everybody equally — all differences dissolve in the colors that flow in plenty.

Volunteers with the Ve-dic Cultural Center staffed the Festival of Color to promote a culture of ser-vice, according to Lila Das.

“Everybody is smil-ing,” Lila Das added. “We want to promote selfless service.”

Colors abound at Indian Holi celebration

overcome are policies that were written to help small companies such as B.E. Mey-ers but are not implemented with the same intent.

Meyers said with the country starting to pull out of the Middle East, demand from the Department of Defense has gone down but the government restricts them from reaching out to other markets, thus limiting the company’s source of revenue. There are unusual restrictions in place where, logically, there shouldn’t be, he said.

“There’s a lack of under-standing about what we’re try-ing to provide,” Meyers said.

By meeting with DelBene, Meyers said he wants to bring awareness to the issue and hopefully find a solution that works for everyone.

“We’re looking for the opportunity to keep ourselves afloat,” Meyers said, explain-ing that they are not looking for a handout, just a chance to do business.

B.E. Meyers currently has about 120 employees, which Meyers said is a “significant” drop from how many they had about two years ago — all due to their drop in busi-ness. In addition to providing employment for the local community, Meyers said their company also “draws from the home team” and works with sub-suppliers in the area, which they are very proud of being able to do.

DelBene’s visit was initiated after Meyers called her office to discuss the issues they are facing. He said while talking with her, he saw that she recognized the importance of

what they are doing, as well as the importance of them working with other businesses within the district.

DelBene said it is impor-tant to learn about businesses and the challenges they face from a policy standpoint to see how it impacts the busi-nesses.

“They have unique chal-lenges,” DelBene said about B.E. Meyers.

She said from her visit to the Redmond company, she learned that it is important for the government to look at how they invest their money and make sure they are receiving a return on the

business.DelBene’s district-wide tour

of businesses also included Nintendo in Redmond, which she visited Monday morning. She said another purpose of her visit to area businesses is to talk about innovation, pointing out that this area is very innovative in the tech field, which ranges from the lasers and software to the bio-medical and aerospace fields.

funding six researchers locally: Five are at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle and one is at the University of Washington Medical Center.

This year’s climb has brought in more than $1.6 million but Gillingham said donations are still coming in, so they are confident they will reach their goal of raising $1.7 million. LLS will continue collecting donations through April 6.

The climb has been around for almost 30 years and Gillingham said in that time the fund-raiser has brought in “well over $20 million.” She added that the local chapter’s various fund-raisers bring in about $8 million each year so the Big Climb is a large portion of that. LLS also holds benefit walks and runs and more traditional fund-raisers throughout the year.

Gillingham said the novelty of climbing Seattle’s tallest building was what initially brought interest to the event but over the years, as people learned more about the Big Climb, it has become more popular

— with a cap at 6,000 and often filling up several weeks before the big day. Gillingham said the climb has also become about the fund-raising than the physi-cal challenge.

Price agreed.“To me, it’s continuing a

legacy,” Price said about his continued participation in the climb. “(Trevor) was a pretty amazing young man.”

Price added that if Trevor had survived, his son would have taken over as a team captain for the event.

LINKS (Looking Into the Needs of Kids and Schools) is a volunteer program of Lake Washington School District that connects com-munity volunteers with needs in schools. Volunteers meet weekly with a student and provide academic and/or social guidance to stu-dents needing extra support.

As the school year progresses, the need for aca-demic support for students is growing. LINKS continues to receive requests for vol-unteers to meet weekly with kids struggling in one or more subjects. Staff request-

ing academic mentors in elementary and secondary schools have commented, “Desperately needs math assistance” and “Her basis skills are very low.” Com-munity volunteers can help these students turn the corner toward success.

To learn more about vol-unteer opportunities, visit the LINKS website at: http://www.lwsd.org/For-Com munity/Volunteers/LINKS/Pages/default.aspx.
