Renton residents have come together to form an advocacy group that will bring citizens’ concerns to the Renton City Council and other city officials.

Formed at the urging of City Council member Greg Taylor and members of the public, the group will focus on the downtown library renovation and other city projects, said Beth Asher, a group member who will research issues.

This new advocacy group vows to keep watch on the City of Renton and the King County Library System’s actions concerning libraries, but that’s not all it plans to do.

“There are more issues of concern in Renton than the library, and we want to provide a platform for citizens to communicate with the city about them,” wrote Asher in an email. “However, the library renovation will be an ongoing project for us.”

The advocacy group seeks to act like an ombudsman but provide residents with a place to take their concerns where they’ll be listened to and helped, Asher said.

She will help to research con-cerns and distribute information creating “a forum and a positive

means for the city and its residents to communicate.”They have plans to become a non-profit organization. So far, some

members have experience in project management, change manage-ment, architecture and real estate.

“All of us are committed to making our city a better place to live,” Asher said. “We’ll tackle whatever Renton residents bring to our table and research and help to the best of our abilities.”

One of the issues that sparked the group’s creation was the vote on the downtown library site location. To Asher, it was clear that the majority of voters that secured the site over the Cedar River was not just a minority voice in the city, as some City Council members stated, she said.

Seeing an opportunity to connect council with citizens, the group was formed with this in mind.

All of the members have other full-time jobs aside from this project, but Asher says they hope to create a large working group.

The contact Victor Karpiak will retire Sept. 17 as CEO of First Savings Bank Northwest and chairman of its board of directors, where he has worked for 35 years. DEAN A. RADFORD, Renton Reporter

By DEAN A. RADFORD

Thirty five years ago, Victor Karpiak started his banking career in Renton in a small office shared with two others – including the CEO – lending

money to the people of Renton to buy homes.The assets of what was then known as First Sav-

ings and Loan Association of Renton totaled about $40 million and were owned by the depositors.

Today, the bank is First Savings Bank Northwest and those assets – mostly the value of the real-estate loans – total about $1 billion, down from a high of about $1.3 billion.

“When I was a loan officer, we did loans for the grandparents and then the kids would come along and then all of a sudden you saw generation after

Fry’s Electronics agreed to pay $2.3 million and to implement pre-ventative measures to settle a sexual harassment and retaliation lawsuit brought by the U.S. Equal Employ-ment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), according to a consent decree filed by the agency.

The EEOC had charged the company with harassing a young sales associate at its Renton store and firing a supervisor for standing up for her, according to an agency press release.

“This was my first job, and I just wanted the harassment to

stop. It really meant a lot to have my supervisor speak out for me, and it was horrifying to see him lose his job over it,” said America Rios, the salesperson, in the press release. “I’m elated and relieved by the settlement, for Ka Lam’s sake as much as for mine.”

In the release EEOC General Counsel P. David Lopez said “this seven-figure settlement, among the highest EEOC settlements ever on a per-claimant basis, follows court-ordered sanctions including a pen-alty of $100,000 due to Fry’s abusive discovery tactics which included

destroying relevant evidence, wrongfully withholding evidence, and filing frivolous motions.”

“The case should send a clear message that sexual harassment of vulnerable employees remains a serious problem in this country, as is employer retaliation against those who report harassment,” he said.

According to the federal agency’s lawsuit, an assistant store manager at the Renton Fry’s harassed Rios, the 20-year-old sales associate, frequently sending her sexually charged text messages and inviting her to his house to drink, according

to the press release. After her direct supervisor Ka Lam reported the harassment to Fry’s legal depart-ment, the company fired Lam. He was told that his termination was due to a decline in his performance despite the fact that his work was consistently commended.

Sexual harassment and re-taliation for complaining about it violate Title VII of Civil Rights Act of 1964. After attempting to reach a voluntary settlement through conciliation, the EEOC filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the District of Washington.

Fry’s settles harassment suit for 2.3M

Girl Scouts to hold informational meetings in Renton

A 23-year-old Renton woman got her wish Tues-day afternoon - a trip to the jail.

The woman walked into the Key Bank in the Highlands at 4:22 p.m. and demanded money from a teller, according to Renton Police.

After taking the money, the woman told bank em-ployees that she would wait outside for police. Officers found the woman and the bank’s manager waiting outside the building. Of-ficers took the woman into custody without a struggle. She told detectives she robbed the bank in hopes to going to jail.

The case was to go to the King County Prosecut-ing Attorneys Office for a decision on charges. Police didn’t specify a reason why she wanted to go to jail.

Backpack in tow, hand in hand with a parent, some students made their way to classes Tuesday for the first time ever. They filed out of school buses, posed for pictures in front of parents and lined up to enter classrooms.

About 14,700 students, in addition to 120 new teachers, headed back to school in Renton Tuesday.

It is the first year that Honey Dew Elementary in the Highlands re-opened as a full kindergarten through fifth-grade school.

Previously, the school was used to teach kindergarten students from three district elementary schools while those schools were rebuilt.

The School Board has been prepar-ing to open the school for four years and approved boundary changes in December 2010.

Students who attend Honey Dew live in neighborhoods around the school, so walk to school.

The creation of the neighborhood school triggered boundary changes to eight elementary schools near Honey Dew.

The school district credits voter sup-port for Honey Dew’s renovation and

reopening. The opening of the school had been

delayed for four years because of budget cuts made by the state Legislature. It has not been a neighborhood school for at least 20 years.

Nearly 15,000 kids head back to school

IntersectIon to close for pavIngThe City of Renton’s contractor, ICON Materials, is planning

to close the intersection of Lake Washington Blvd. N./Garden Ave. N./N. Park Dr./Logan Ave. N. on Thursday

night, Sept. 13, to pave the intersection. Signed detours will be in place to route traffic around the

work area between 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. The contractor is widening Garden Avenue.

Students enter Honey Dew Elementary School for their first day of classes. This is the first time the school has opened as a full kindergarten through fifth-grade school in about 20 years. ReNTON SChOOL DISTRICT

Renton clothing bou-tique, C’est la Vie at The Landing, will present the latest fall fashions in a fash-ion show event on Sept. 13.

The show will benefit Domestic Abuse Women’s Network or DAWN.

“The idea behind the fashion show is to teach fashion, not just show the fashion,” wrote Gabriela Sawrey, DAWN event orga-nizer. “Styles and different options to mix and match will be explained and dem-onstrated during the show.”

Doors open at 5 p.m. and the show starts at 6 p.m. at the shop, 911 N. 10th Pl.

The clothes are from local and popular design-ers, some of whom have given back to the commu-nity from planting trees to donating to breast cancer research.

The models for the show are every day women who live and work in the Renton area, C’est la Vie customers,

said Sawrey.The target age group for

the show is women age 30 to 65, who like to wear fun and unique fashions.

C’est la Vie owner Col-leen Bowman got the idea to do the show when she was approached by DAWN to donate an item for the organization’s “An Evening of Promise” fundraiser. Bowman wanted to do something bigger and so the idea for a fashion show was hatched.

Although DAWN provides services for all of South King County, in 2011 the group served more than 950 people in Renton alone.

In addition to the fashion show, there will be wine and chocolate tasting, ap-petizers, SWAG bags and a raffle of merchandise from other Landing merchants.

Tickets are $15 per person and reservations can be made through [email protected].

ClearChoice team of specialists brings you a dental implant solution that fi ts your budget ... in just one day!*

A LEADER IN DENTAL IMPLANT TREATMENT

Virtually every adult will lose a tooth, and as we get older, more Americans will suffer with missing and failing teeth.

But now, ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers are leading the way in innovative dental implant treatments. Dental Implants are a permanent solution for dental problems.

This technology provides three-dimensional and cross-sectional views that allow ClearChoice doctors to examine the quality and density of the bone that will anchor the dental implants; select the correct type and size of implants; determine the precise placement of implants, and avoid the nerves and sinuses.

Since every smile is custom designed, each ClearChoice Center has a specialized Dental Implant in-house lab to custom make your smile.

TEAM OF SPECIALISTS

The technology alone cannot elevate ClearChoice Dental Implant Centers in their fi eld. Our technology is paired with an expert professional team of doctor specialists enabling ClearChoice to empower so many patients around the country to change their lives. These qualifi ed specialists include an oral surgeon who places implants, and a prosthodontist who designs your custom new smile. Each of the doctors has special expertise and can be trusted to deliver your high quality implant care. Dental Implants are a surgical procedure and the ClearChoice doctors have extensive experience in this area including administering anesthesia to provide comfort. Custom fabrication of the patient’s new smile and replacement teeth are accomplished by trained lab technicians in the on-site dental implant lab.

One of the Small Business Administration’s top priorities is to provide access and opportu-nity to small business owners in traditionally underserved communities. Nationwide, SBA has supported $13.5 billion in lending to un-derserved small businesses since 2009. And, SBA has supported $100.3 billion in federal government contracting dollars to small disad-vantaged firms since 2009.

Locally, SBA has backed nearly $58 mil-lion in loans to Hispanic owned businesses in Washington state and Northern Idaho since

2009.As we see commercial

lending improve across the country, we recog-nize there’s more work to be done and we know that challenges still exist. That’s why SBA is work-ing hard to fill the gaps that remain in the market

place and ensure that small business owners in underserved communities are aware of the assistance available to help them grow their businesses and create jobs.

Minority-owned businesses are some of the fastest growing segments of the economy, with Hispanic-owned, small businesses leading all other demographics. Sept. 15 marks the start of Hispanic Heritage Month in America. At the SBA, we’ve joined forces with the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (USHCC) to help support thousands of Hispanic small businesses and entrepreneurs. Through this collaboration, the SBA and USHCC will work to increase Hispanic-owned small business

participation in SBA programs, including:• Loan programs and access to capital initia-

tives; • Government contracting programs like the

8(a) program and the Women-Owned Small Program;

• Up-to-date information and access to SBA’s extensive resource partner network; and

• International trade opportunities to achieve the goals of the President’s National Export Initiative.

In combining our efforts, we will work to increase lending to Hispanic small busi-nesses; increase awareness of SBA programs and services among Hispanic-owned small businesses; increase participation of small Hispanic-owned businesses in SBA’s procure-ment programs, with a focus on women and veterans; and increase trade opportunities for small Hispanic-owned businesses.

Take advantage of the benefits of this part-nership. The SBA team at the Seattle District Office and Spokane Branch Office stands ready, willing and able to help your small busi-ness emerge from the recession stronger and more competitive than before.

When small businesses succeed, America succeeds. And we are committed to support-ing our nation’s entrepreneurs. Working to-gether, we can build growing vibrant commu-nities, get people back to work and ensure that we have a 21st century American economy that’s built to last.

Calvin Goings is regional administrator for the federal Small Business Administration.

Renton FilmFrenzy 5 is just weeks away, when film-makers find just the right spot in the city to tell their stories.

In telling those stories, filmmakers are also bring-ing what makes Renton special to a much broader audience.

Renton is indeed finding its place in a cultural industry – filmmaking – through FilmFrenzy but also through its partnership with the Seattle International Film Festival. SIFF will return for a third season next year at the Renton IKEA Per-forming Arts Center, a boost to the city’s cultural evolution.

That evolution deserves a Darwinian boost from our artists – take note novice filmmakers and professional alike and register your teams before the Oct. 1 deadline.

And let us not forget that every film deserves an audience, the age-old endeavor of putting “butts in the seats.” A bit crude, but theatrical in making its point. So mark Oct. 22 and Oct. 23 on your calendars. The first date is the screening of all FilmFrenzy entries at the Renton Civic Theatre. The second is the Curvee Awards gala at IPAC.

City officials, commissions, private institutions like the Renton Civic Theatre and the Renton Historical Society are committed to growing the cultural arts offerings in Renton. Whenever possible, lend them support and find a place in one of their seats.

RentonLetter to editor

City officials should have same library goals as citizens

This is in response to Kal Lambert’s letter to the editor of Aug. 31, “A library test of wills.”

Why are our mayor and four council members still fighting citizen involvement in the Cedar River Library renovation? We very definitely should have the same goals at this point. We have a vast body of documents and have researched the issues. We would be more than willing to help the city exercise oversight and get two state-of-the-art libraries within budget. It’s time to start communicating with residents. It’s time for transparency. It’s more than time for those of us who live in Renton to see our council openly representing our best interests rather than the interests of KCLS. We’re paying $5 million in property taxes to KCLS, and in addition paying for the renovation and a new Highlands Library. We’ve done our homework, and deserve to be a part of the process. We represent a 76 percent voting majority that is VERY CONCERNED that the mayor and council get it right this time. Why not give citizens a voice and a share the library renovation?

I also agree that the King County Council needs to step in and make KCLS Board member-ship an elected position so that members will be responsible and responsive to the public.Beth AsherRenton

The following information was compiled based on City of Renton police reports.

By ADAM McFADDEN

[email protected]

A woman threatened three children with a gun Aug. 19.The girls, two 6-year-olds and an 8-year-old, were play-

ing in the backyard when they came running inside, yelling about a woman with a gun at about 5 p.m.

The girls claimed the woman was on the other side of the fence, by an apartment complex at 1500 block of Vashon Avenue. They said she yelled at them to get away from the fence while holding a black handgun at her side. The girls described the woman as white with curly brown hair.

Police searched the area and were unable to find the woman. The apartments in the two buildings closest to the incident were all either unoccupied or occupied by families that were not white.

couple fights over custody of dogA Seattle man allegedly broke a door during a dispute

with his ex-girlfriend Aug. 28.The two had separated and agreed upon joint custody

of their dog Bugatti, but police were called to the woman’s apartment in the 17400 block of 120th Lane when a fight broke out.

The woman thought the man had spent more time with the dog that week than was fair. During the fight, the man allegedly kicked a bedroom door and broke it.

When police caught up to the man, he said the dog was his and he wanted to prosecute the woman for theft of the dog. He also claimed the woman had mental issues and that the bedroom door was already broken. Police cited the man for malicious mischief.

Man loses fight with police dog

A Bellevue man was arrest-ed for assault after fighting

with his girlfriend Aug. 27.Police were called to the 1200 block of Edmonds Ave

near McKnight Middle School at 6:30 p.m. when a witness saw a man push a woman to the ground and drag her across the street.

Officers arrived and saw the two walking down the street. The man fled when he saw the police car. A K9 unit tracked him to some nearby sticker bushes.

The suspect suffered dog bites on his legs as he kicked the police dog away and grabbed its ears. He was arrested for assault.

Three caught swimming after hours at Henry Moses pool

A Renton man and woman, plus a Maple Valley man were arrested after swimming in the Henry Moses Aquatic Center after hours and trying to evade police Aug. 27.

Police arrived at the center at about 5 a.m. after a janitor heard splashing and voices in the pool. When the officers turned on flashlights, the three fled the area and got in a car as officers told them to stop.

They attempted the drive away, but had to stop at a dead end. Police finally corralled the vehicle in the parking lot.

The officers said the female driver was very apologetic and cooperative, while the males were not. She told police the two males had told her she didn’t need to stop because it was just security, not the police.

She was cited for trespassing and released, while the men were arrested.

Woman hides under blanket, refuses treatment at hospital

A Renton woman was arrested for interfering with a health-care facility Aug. 27.

Police arrived at Valley Medical Center to find the 31-year-old woman unresponsive and unwilling to cooper-ate with doctors. The woman showed up at the hospital and claimed she was unable to walk due to severe neck pain. She promptly curled up in a ball on the bed, refusing to move and refusing any treatment.

She yelled nonsense words at the doctors trying to help her. When police officers showed up, they found the woman covered completely with a blanket. She continued to yell and talk in incomplete thoughts and refuse to allow anyone to help her.

After several more warnings, police tried to arrest the woman, but her body went limp and she started to yell “abuse!” Officers waited for an ambulance to transport her. She later identified herself as a Sovereign Citizen, a group which believes they answer only to common law and not federal or state laws.

Ron Regis, a longtime Renton resident who served on the City of Renton Parks Commission from 1963 until 2011 and is the namesake for Ron Regis Park, died on Aug. 11.

A “Celebration of His Life” will be held at noon Wednesday, Sept. 12, at the Renton Community Center, 1715 S.E. Maple Valley Highway.

Regis attended his first City Council meeting in the 1950s; his first appointment to the Parks Commission was in 1963. He was an avid supporter of city projects and was instrumental in contributing to projects such as the development of Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park, purchase

and expansion of the Maplewood Golf Course, Renton Senior Activity Center and the Renton Community Center.

He was determined to see all young people with the desire to participate in sports programs have the ability to do so, no matter what their income, according to his family and the city.

The family has asked all donations in his memory be made to the “City of Renton Youth Sports Scholarship in Memory of Ron Regis.” Donations can be made in per-son or mailed to Renton City Hall, Com-munity Services Department, sixth floor, 1055 S. Grady Way, Renton, WA 98057.

Service to honor Ron Regis

Local craft artist Mary Clymer is exhibiting her art through Oct. 12 at Carco Theatre, presented by the Renton Municipal Arts Commission.

The public can meet Clymer at a reception 5 p.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 15, at the theatre next to the Renton Community Center, 1717 Maple Valley Highway.

Clymer considers herself more of a crafter than an artist. She has been actively creating with her hands since before she can

remember. She has an as-sociate degree in the arts.

Clymer is currently working with felt, which she does free-form; her

creations are always one-of-a-kind. She will provide felt embellishments and deco-rations for any attendees who bring an extra t-shirt, skirt, jeans, jacket or similar item for a minimum fee.

She has operated hap-pydelusions downtown for five years.

Carco Theatre is open 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, with ad-ditional viewing on show nights.

For show times, call 425-430-6706 or visit rentonwa.gov.

A sign that summer has come and gone are empty beaches and no activity at the Henry Moses Aquatic Center in Renton.

The water park and the beaches at Gene Coulon Memorial Beach Park and Kennydale Beach Park are now closed for the season, following the Labor Day weekend.

The beaches and the aquatic center will reopen next June.

The beaches are no longer staffed by lifeguards

and the City of Renton discourages any swimming there beyond the scheduled season.

Up next for the Henry Moses Aquatic Center is maintenance. A flurry of cleaning of pools, chairs and other equipment will commence now that the swim season is over. Lifeguard towers are taken down for the season.

City staff reports that it was a very average summer season in terms of atten-dance at the park.

open. The weekend of Oct. 5-7, they will write, film and edit their four-minute films.

The films are entirely shot in Renton and the filmmakers must include an iconic image of Renton in the film and dialogue that speaks about the city.

The teams will compete for $1,700 in prize money and a Cur-vee award. The winner of the Best Picture Curvee winner will screen at the Seattle International Film Festival in Renton in May.

“The Renton FilmFrenzy con-tinues to expand and has become an integral part of the growing and strong Renton arts communi-ty,” said Mayor Denis Law, thanks to the partnerships with SIFF, Reel

Grrls, theFilmSchool, area film-making programs and the Renton Municipal Arts Commission.

A team of judges will pick the winning films. All films will screen during the FilmFrenzy Screening on Oct. 22 at the Renton Civic Theatre.

Last year was the first time that all films were screened; Renton’s economic development director called the screenings “a tremen-dous success.”

“We had a full house in a cool, historic venue and the audience voted for their favorite film,” said Suzanne Dale Estey. The winning filmmakers received a special Curvee Award.

The next night, Oct. 23, is the Curvee Awards at the Renton IKEA Performing Arts Center,

where the top films will be shown and the Curvee Awards presented.

The Renton Reporter will again host the online voting for the Peo-ple’s Choice Award, which will be presented to the winner at a City Council meeting in November.

Dale Estey pointed to the im-portance of Renton’s relationship with SIFF.

“Renton’s position as a venue for the Seattle International Film Festival is opening new doors on a year-round basis, and helping to highlight the community as a thriving, creative hub for arts and culture, including film,” she said.

Here are the details:• Filmmakers can enter their

films in one of two divisions: Student Division (high school and below) and Open Division. There

is a $50 entry fee for the Open Division and a $25 entry fees for student competitors.

• Films can be up to four min-utes in length and must be shot in Renton. All genres of film are welcome, although films must be appropriate for all audiences. The films will be judged by local film-makers, representatives from film organizations including SIFF and a Renton Municipal Arts Com-mission member.

• Full details, rules and ap-plications are available at www.RentonFilmFrenzy.com.

• Celebrating the slogan “Renton, Ahead of the Curve,” special “Curvee” awards will be crafted by local artisans and students for presentation to the award-winning filmmakers.

• Cash prizes: Best Picture, $500; Open Division: First prize, $250, second prize, $200, third prize, $150; Student Division: First prize, $250, second prize, $200, third prize, $150.

• Other awards: Screenwriter’s Award, Woman Filmmaker, Best Actor, Best Use of Renton, Special Judges Award.

• Jim Dever from KING 5 Television will again emcee the Curvee Awards Gala.

• Renton FilmFrenzy is spon-sored by the Renton Community Marketing Campaign, which includes the Renton Chamber of Commerce, Renton School District, Valley Medical Center, Renton Technical College, Renton Visitors Connection and the City of Renton.

generation making loans,” he said.In those 35 years Karpiak went from loan officer to CEO

and president of the savings bank and chairman of the bank’s board of directors and to CEO of the bank’s publicly traded holding company, First Financial Northwest, and chairman of its board.

Karpiak and the bank has weathered economic down-turns and most daunting, the Great Recession that still casts a pall over the economy and the housing market. And he’s come to know activist investor Joseph Stilwell, who is trying to get Karpiak off the board and maybe even sell the bank.

Karpiak, who is 58, along with the board have devised a succession plan that will ensure the bank has a strong executive team in place when he retires, possibly in 2014 when he’s 60.

The succession plan has been in the works for about two years that includes splitting Karpiak’s executive duties.

“I wanted to make sure the bank gets top focus in anything we do,” he said, which includes continuing to move forward with improving the bank’s financial performance.

Significantly, in August First Financial Northwest announced that Karpiak will retire as CEO and presi-dent of the savings bank, replaced by California banker Joe Kiley. Kiley, 56,

with more than 20 years of banking experience in Califor-nia, will run the day-to-day operations of the bank.

Kiley will start the job on Sept. 17, the day that Karpiak’s bank retirement becomes effective.

However, Karpiak will remain as CEO of First Financial Northwest and chairman of the holding company’s board. He will focus on bank regulations and on shareholder rela-tions, including with Stilwell and a lawsuit that could lead to Karpiak’s ouster from the board.

He’ll also help with Kiley’s succession.Another executive position also was split – the chief

lending and credit administration officer. Herman L. Robinson, who held that job, is now the bank’s chief credit officer and Simon Soh is chief lending officer.

The management changes have nothing to do with Stilwell’s efforts to place his own person on the holding company’s board, Karpiak said, but they will help the bank comply with orders from regulators to improve the knowl-edge and expertise of the bank’s management and board of directors.

Stilwell, who manages investment funds in New York, became a player in the holding company when he pur-chased about 8 percent of its stock. According to Karpiak and media reports, he is known for buying a community bank’s stock, then pushing for its sale.

Stilwell has called for Karpiak’s ouster, claiming he’s in-competent, and filed a lawsuit over a disputed shareholder election in which Karpiak kept his seat on the holding company board by beating Spencer Schneider, Stilwell’s candidate. The lawsuit will now go to trial.

Schneider had been appointed to the board, but then

resigned and started a “proxy” battle to get back on the board. Schneider maintains that his millions of votes weren’t counted, but Karpiak points out an inspector of elections ruled that no ballots were actually cast for Sch-neider even though Schneider had proxies.

Before he resigned, Schneider offered three suggestions: remove the photos of board directors and executives from the stairwell leading to the bank’s upper floor, eliminate the position of director emeritus and serve hard candy instead of cookies at the annual meeting.

The photos remain; the board is seeking legal advice on eliminating the director emeritus position. Regarding the hard candy vs. cookies: “That’s ridiculous,” Karpiak said.

In his letter of resignation on Feb. 16, Schneider wrote the board and management lost more than $130 million in shareholder money and was under regulatory orders.

“So, when I agreed to come on the board, I did it with the assumption that management and the board wanted to turn over a new leaf and put the interests of the bank and its shareholders first,” he wrote. “But after just five weeks, I see that there has been no change of mind.”

He wrote that the three ideas were “symbolic that the board is headed in a new direction.”

Karpiak points out that savings bank has posted a profit for the last eight quarters.

The bank, whose business is primarily real-estate loans, “did a pretty good job” surviving “the greatest downturn in the housing market in history,” he said.

The bank lost money because of the decline in home values – and thus the value of its assets, its loans – dur-ing the Great Recession, he said. Also counted against the bank’s bottom line was the $16 million in stock that funds the First Financial Northwest Foundation. The foundation works with the Renton Community Foundation to award grants throughout the community.

Karpiak said the board was “receptive” to Stilwell’s ideas of paying dividends and buying back company stock. Then Stilwell suggested selling the company.

The board was willing to consider a sale, but it had to be within the right price range, Karpiak said.

“Right now, no one is buying any bank,” Karpiak said and, besides, there is no reason financially to sell the com-pany.

“We don’t understand what is his real motive,” Karpiak said of Stilwell. But Karpiak points out that money is made in selling banks, not buying them.

Verneice Hester LeniusVerneice Hester Lenius was born

December 3, 1909 in Sterling, Kansas and passed away September 2, 2012 in Mount Vernon, Washington. Verneice moved to Frazee, Minnesota as a child and lived there with her parents Albert and Fannie Renollet and her seven brothers and sisters. She married Bradford Lenius in 1927 and together they had eight children, Brad, Beverly, Bernard, Bobby, Barbara, Bonnie, Burton and Byron.

One of Verneice’s longtime passions was serving at the Renton Senior Center. She went to the Center at least once a week for over forty years, assisting the kitchen staff and doing other tasks to help out.

Verneice is survived by her sons Bobby Lenius of Union, Illinois and Burton Lenius of Wenatchee, Washington, and her daughter Bonnie Topham of Aurora, Colorado. She is also survived by her twenty-six grandchildren and numerous great- and great-great-grandchildren.

A memorial service will be held for Verneice on Monday September 10, 2012 at 1:30 PM at Greenwood Memorial Park with interment and reception to follow. A viewing will precede the memorial from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Please forward any

“I wanted to make sure the bank gets top focus in anything we do.” First Savings Bank Northwest CEO Victor Karpiak

Bank weathers recession that cut home values[ KARPIAK from page 1]


By ADAM McFADDEN

[email protected]

Both off the field and on, last year’s Hazen girls soccer team knew heartache better than most.

On the field, the team lost to Kelso on a goal with 49 seconds left in the bi-district tournament, just one game short of state.

“As a program, it was a sour note on a pretty darn good year,” said Hazen coach Ken Matthews. “Ev-erybody was pretty well ready to get started this year.”

Off the field, the team lost Ha-zen custodian and long-time superfan Joe Dahl and Lora Michaud, long-time supporter and mother of a Hazen player, dur-ing the season. Now with an offsea-son to process it, Matthews said it will only make the team better.

“It’s still on the forefront of our brains, but it’s there in a positive way because of what it did for us,” he said. “It’s just a part of us now.”

The key on the field this year will be attacking mid Dee Dee Green. Green has committed to play defender for the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville next year, but Matthews needed her presence in the middle to fit this year’s Hazen

squad. Her willingness to move set the tone for the rest of the team.

“We’ve moved some good soccer players around in positions they haven’t played before,” he said. “And that’s our biggest question mark right now.”

Matthews said Green not only helps the team with her talent but her mentality as well.

“She’s a very good soccer player, but what she brings to our team is kind of that warrior mentality,” Matthews said. “Sometimes it’s very

difficult to find high school teams with that and she brings it for us.”

Cameron Devereux will replace all-state goalkeeper Priscilla Yu.

“She’s paid her dues, she pushed Priscilla so hard last year,” Matthews said. “I’ve always had a lot of con-fidence in her and the girls really have a lot of confidence in her too.”

Yu, Sarah Schoville and Marina Vaughn highlight a talented group of graduating seniors, but Matthews is confident in the returning players.

On defense, all-league juniors Gabby Brower and Courtney Kite-ley are back. All-league juniors Bri-anne Sherin and Chelsea Delgado also return to help lead the offense. Sherin led the league in goals last year. Hazen also has two all-league juniors back in the midfield, in Cindy Hanson and Melissa Carney.

Three freshmen made the team, forward Erin Zetterberg, midfielder Nicole Anderson and defender Madi Kaiser.

The team will get tested early and often. Hazen faces Auburn Mounta-inview (Thursday night, results not available by press time), Fife, Ken-nedy (twice) and Eastside Catholic, all are ranked among the top 10 in their respective classifications.

“We’re going to find out really quickly how good we are compared to where we need to be to get to state,” Matthews said.

“Estate Plan” is a term used to describe a strategy for transfer of assets to family members and other beneficiaries after death. The size and complexity of the estate, as well as your preferences will dictate the documents to include.

In some cases, a Will or a Revocable Living Trust will be the foundation of the plan. Many married couples should have a Community Property Agreement to avoid probate on the first death.

Other documents may include a Health Care Directive, Power of Attorney and other forms of beneficiary designations.

With a stout, experienced offensive line, the Hazen football team is hoping to break even more new ground for the program this year.

Last year the team went 7-3, making it to state for the first time since 1993. This year the bulk of the offensive line is back, which is essential for the run-based, Wing-T offense the Highlanders run.

“It’s the strength of this team and we knew it all along,” said Hazen coach Drew Oliver. “Having five seniors on that line does us really well. It fits our style since we’re pretty much a grind-it-out team.”

The line features seniors Cody Moorhead, Jeremy Hazlett, Bryce Sowder, Tyler Wicks, Drew Kelly and Dom Orsillo. Moor-head is a four-year starter and already has three Divi-sion I offers.

The only concern will be keeping the linemen fresh. Most of them play on defense, too, and Oliver said experienced depth is lacking right now.

“They were dog tired after Friday’s game,” he said.

Hazen opened the season with a 37-28 win against Franklin Pierce. The High-landers trailed going into the fourth quar-

ter but outscored Franklin Pierce 17-0 to take the win.

“It was a very shaky start, but they were gritty and made the adjustments we needed,” Oliver said.

Junior Mason Jacobs rushed for 111 yards and three touchdowns in the game and will be vital to the rushing attack. Fullback Joe Glaefke will also play a big role. Oliver said of Glaefke, “He’s a big battering-ram type of guy.”

The team will also get a boost from

Tony Nipert returning at quarterback. The senior missed most of the second half of last season with an injury.

Senior Zach Cable is a transfer from Georgia and will step into the linebacker spot, playing as the captain of the defense on the field.

“It’s definitely a goal of ours to continue to play in November and have meaning-ful games,” Oliver said. “That’s always our goal going out. It’s just a matter of how we respond to things in season.”

Behind strong line led by Moorhead, Hazen looking for playoffs

Liberty Patriots football at a glance

Week 1Seattle Seahawks (7-9) at Arizona Cardinals (8-8), Sunday, 1:25 p.m. on FOX

Seahawks storylines:• Running back Marshawn Lynch is in

danger of missing season opener because of back spasms. He missed practice Monday and hasn’t played since the second pre-season game.

Rookie Robert Turbin would start in Lynch’s place. Turbin impressed against the Chiefs in the third preseason game by rush-ing 14 times for 93 yards and a touchdown.

• Seattle released tight end Kellen Winslow, who many thought had a chance to lead the team in receptions this season. Expect third-year player Anthony McCoy to step up and fill some of the receiving gap left by Winslow. The team also signed Evan Moore, who was earlier released by Cleveland. McCoy and Moore are solid, but they’ve combined for just 75 career recep-tions - the same amount Winslow had in 2011 alone.

If the team’s offensive line can avoid the onslaught of injuries it suffered last year, starter Zach Miller could spend less time blocking and more time catching passes. Miller averaged 56.5 receptions per season in Oakland, so he can definitely fill that role.

Seattle will get to keep the conditional

seventh round pick they sent to Tampa Bay in the Winslow trade.

• Wide receiver Golden Tate injured his knee in the team’s preseason finale and will likely miss at least two weeks.

• Offensive lineman James Carpenter re-turned to practice Monday. He started eight games at right tackle last season.

• The Seahawks added WR Jermaine Kearse, LB Korey Toomer, QB Josh Portis, WR Ricardo Lockette, T Edawn Cough-man, G Rishaw Johnson and S Deshawn Shead to their practice squad.

cardinals storylines:• Arizona’s offensive line is in trouble.

The team has four linemen on injured reserve, including key players Levi Brown and Jeremy Bridges.

• The Cardinals bring back nine start-ers on defense, plus linebacker O’Brien Schofield, who saw significant playing time last year.

• QB John Skeleton is the team’s fourth starting quarterback in the past four years. He has a strong arm, yet battles with inac-curacy.

• Running backs Beanie Wells and Ryan Williams are both healthy at the moment, but both has long injury histories. It’s uncertain how well they will be able to rush behind the team’s injury-ravaged offensive line.
