Orenco poised to expand again
Nearly 600 housing
units set to be added
on Hillsboro’s north side
By JIM REDDEN and DOUG BURKHARDT
The Hillsboro Tribune
Signs of residential and employment growth in Hillsboro just
keep coming.
In a unanimous vote on the evening
of March 5, the Hillsboro City Council
gave final approval to a proposed $120
million mixed-use development at
Orenco Station. Called the Platform
District, it is set to be built by Holland
Partners of Vancouver, Wash. The
project will include at least 579 units
in three new buildings, up to 25,000
square feet of retail space, and an outdoor plaza for public events. The development agreement approved by
the council last week calls for five eating establishments to be built facing
the plaza, which will be located near
the MAX station.
To pave the way for the development, the council first needed to
adopt a resolution allowing for expansion of the “vertical housing development zone” in the Orenco Station area.
Before the council voted, Colin
Cooper, assistant planning director
with the Hillsboro Planning Department, discussed the benefits of the
proposed development and urged
the council to take the necessary
steps to allow Orenco to grow.
“This project delivers on council
priorities,” Cooper told the council
members. “It is transit-oriented and
close to high employment centers. I
feel the benefits to the community
are significant.”
Cooper added that the city could
get a substantial economic boost related to the housing expansion. He
noted that as much as 80 percent of
those working in Hillsboro commute
here from nearby towns.
“That’s fine, but a tremendous
amount of money is being spent
somewhere else as a result,” he said.

illsboro police officer
Kurt Van Meter might
have been “sick as a
dog” all week, but he
said he was not about to let a bad
bout with the flu keep him from
showing up to support the family
of a fellow officer.
On Friday evening, Van Meter
— who in addition to serving
with the Hillsboro Police Department is a country singer with a
growing following — was on a
stage in the ballroom at the Hillsboro Elks Lodge, belting out
country tunes. He opened with
Dwight Yoakam’s “Fast as You,”
and if he hadn’t mentioned it, no
one would have guessed he had
been flat on his back most of the
previous week.
“I’ve been sick like a dog; literally been on the couch all week,” he
informed the crowd of about 100
who turned out for a fundraiser on
behalf of Tim Cannon’s family.
Cannon, a former Hillsboro police officer, is currently lodged in
the Washington County Jail,
ROCKIN’
benefit
the Cannon
awaiting trial in the aftermath of
a shootout with other law enforcement officers at Cannon’s
home on Jan. 20. Cannon, who resigned from the Hillsboro Police
Department in the wake of the incident, has been indicted on 24
felony counts in the case, including 11 counts of attempted aggravated murder.
His trial is currently scheduled
to start in Washington County
Circuit Court on July 16.
The bizarre incident started
when Cannon’s wife, Lisa, called
9-1-1 to report her husband had
been drinking and had “gotten
physical” with her in their house
on 37th Avenue in Forest Grove.
When police officers arrived, Cannon challenged them. The situation escalated, and multiple shots
were fired by Cannon and by responding police officers.
Van Meter, who said Cannon
has been supportive of him over
the years, wanted to do what he
could to help in a difficult situation.
“We’ve been through a lot of
stuff together,” Van Meter explained.
“The more you drink, the better we sound.”

So although he was still feeling
ill, Van Meter took the stage with
six band members and channeled
Steve Earle, a country performer
who has a stage persona similar
to Van Meter’s.
Van Meter’s singing appeared
to make a good impression.
“The event was great, and we
really enjoyed the band. Kurt is
very good,” said Elks’ member
Lynn Reilly.
Alana Ambrose — the wife of
Vin Ambrose, Cannon’s partner
in the Hillsboro Police Department — took to the stage before
Van Meter’s performance. She
praised the community-wide effort to help the Cannon family.
“Every night on the evening
news and every week in the
newspaper, bad things occur
around our world,” said Ambrose, who helped organize Saturday’s benefit at the Elks
Lodge. “But out of heartbreaking situations I have seen something wonderful: volunteers
stepping up to make a bad situation better.”

Louie redux:
former chief
returns on
interim basis
Search for new police chief
likely to take several months
By DOUG BURKHARDT
Although he served in the role for 15
years, Ron Louie, Hillsboro’s interim police
chief, all of a sudden is the “new kid on the
block.”
In the wake of the unexpected resignation of
Police Chief Carey Sullivan — Sullivan’s last
day on the job was March 9 — Hillsboro City
Manager Michael Brown asked former police
chief Louie if he was willing to
take over the chief’s responsibilities on a temporary basis.
Louie, who had retired in
2007 after a lengthy stint at the
helm of the Hillsboro Police
Department, said “yes,” and is
once again serving as the city’s
top law enforcement officer.
In a Friday interview, Louie
said he never expected he’d be
back.
“After 20 years as a police
chief — five years in Astoria
and 15 in Hillsboro — and a total of 33 years in law enforcement, I never thought about
returning to the job,” he said.
“But it’s a calling of sorts, and
being asked to temporarily assist an agency so great as Hill— Ron Louie,
sboro was hard to turn down.” interim police chief
Given that he has been away
from active law enforcement
duty for more than five years,
he conceded that taking over a major city’s police agency has left him a bit shocked.
“It has all evolved so quickly — from being
asked, to accepting, then walking through the
door — that even at my age and experience, it
has been a whirlwind experience,” Louie explained.
While it has been several years since he retired, Louie pointed out that he has not been a
stranger to the Hillsboro Police Department,
staying involved by attending a variety of police
ceremonies and celebrations.
Now that he’s back, the former Marine said
his primary assignment will be to guide the

By some estimates, Hillsboro is
projected to grow from 92,000 people today to about 133,000 by 2035
and around 150,000 by 2050. How
will the city keep up with the explosive growth? One answer is by
making sure developers pay a
large share of the costs.

■ Vagabond fish vendor to visit Hillsboro after Forest Grove
By DOUG BURKHARDT
I
f Jimmy Buffett — Mr.
“Margaritaville” — sold
fish for a living instead of
singing pop songs, this
might be what his ride would
look like.
In an old school bus festooned with parrots and colorful fish and even a pink flamingo, Jonny Rush brings his
products — fresh-frozen, organic fish — to customers
around Oregon.
For the past 18 years, Rush,
who goes by the name “Capt.
Jonny,” has been buying fish in
bulk from commercial suppliers and selling it in towns
across Oregon. Right now, he’s
on Pacific Avenue in Forest
Grove, just east of its intersection with Highway 47. Soon, he
said, he’ll be setting up his
“shop” in Hillsboro.
It may seem like a carefree
life, but the vagabond vendor
said selling fish is not as simple
as just setting up on the side of
the road somewhere.

o one appreciates the gift of sunlight more than
the rain-drenched denizens of western Oregon.
Yet, when it comes to sunshine of a different
kind — the type that illuminates the dark corners of government — Oregonians too often have been
willing to surrender the tools that make close inspection possible.
You won’t necessarily be able to confirm this with a
glance out the window, but it’s Sunshine Week in Oregon. This is a time to celebrate the laws that empower
not just journalists, but everyone who wants to attend
public meetings, review government records and generally know how their tax dollars are used.
Oregon once was a leader in
government openness, having
adopted a strong transparency
law in 1973. In the past four decades, however, special interests have chipped away at
the law in an attempt to protect their particular agency,
industry or constituency from having to reveal information to the public.
To date, the Legislature has created more than 400
exemptions to the law — exceptions that give government officials more than 400 reasons to withhold records that otherwise would be available for inspection.

Public losing its rights
The assault on the public’s right to know continues
this legislative session. Lawmakers are considering
bills that would make private the names of people receiving benefits from the Public Employees Retirement
System and that would limit the information released
from Oregon Health Licensing Agency investigations.
Other bills would keep information about bedbug infestations secret and would block release of transcripts
from juvenile court hearings.
These aren’t just issues of significance to nosy journalists. Rather, they are matters of broad public concern. Wouldn’t you want to know the details of a state
investigation into your health care provider? Or whether the hotel you recommend to visiting relatives has
bedbugs? And do the people retiring from state and local government jobs not realize that the “P” in PERS
stands for public, and that those retirement benefits
come from tax dollars?
Pamplin Media Group journalists use public records
every day to report important stories to our readers:
■ Here in Hillsboro, city personnel records provided
to Hillsboro Tribune Managing Editor Nancy Townsley
gave readers insights into a police officer who opened
fire on colleagues responding to a domestic-disturbance
call at his home in January.
■ In Cornelius, a complaint filed with the city and obtained by the News-Times revealed deep divisions within the police department, a rift that resulted in the early retirement of former Police Chief Paul Rubenstein.
■ Portland Tribune reporter Peter Korn used TriMet
disciplinary records two years ago to find out how a bus
driver with repeated customer service problems and
complaints continued to work for the regional transit
agency. Last summer Laura Frazier, a News-Times intern, used a police incident report and a TriMet bus
video tape (both obtained through public records requests) to confirm that the driver had been involved in
a dust-up with another family in Washington County.
The driver abruptly retired.
■ In Portland, Tribune reporter Steve Law used public records from the Oregon Lottery and the Portland
Police Bureau for a series of news stories on continued
problems at Jantzen Beach’s Lottery Row. Law’s reporting spurred both state lottery officials and local lawmakers to demand changes in the way lottery restaurants operate.
■ In Troutdale, Mayor Jim Kight was voted out of office in November after the Gresham Outlook and other
news organizations pressured the City Council into releasing an investigation it had commissioned to examine the mayor’s conduct.
Public losing its rights
While public records are the raw material for volumes of good reporting, public officials too often are
able to use exemptions to stall or even prevent information from becoming public. In the case of the Cornelius
police chief — who was given a $10,000 severance check
on his way out the door, amid charges of corruption —
city officials now are trying to keep the results of an internal investigation secret.
In their attempt to do so, the city’s lawyer cites a litany of loopholes in the state’s public records law, including the catch-all “attorney-client privilege.”
Because the once-expansive ability to access government records has been shrinking by the year, newspaper editors across the nation started Sunshine Week
about a decade ago. Our goal is to bring greater attention to the importance of open government and the dangers of excessive and unnecessary secrecy.
Residents of local communities can help in this effort
by consistently reminding their city, county, state and
federal officials of a very simple concept: The public’s
business must be done in public — and any erosion in
access to government records is destructive to a democratic society.

This newspaper is ready
to go the extra mile
B
ack in 1980, when I got the ball
rolling on a 30-plus-year career
in community journalism, things
were simpler in the Fourth Estate. As sports editor of the weekly Newberg Graphic, my only real qualifications
were a recent bachelor’s degree in journalism and experience as a varsity
cheerleader at Lakeridge High School in
Lake Oswego.
Those credentials were good enough
for my boss, who paid me a little over
$9,500 that first year to write about local
sports and schools. I spent a lot of Friday
nights standing on the sidelines at Tiger
Stadium watching prep football, and quite
a few Monday evenings covering school
board meetings.
I’d return to the office on East Hancock
Street and type up my notes on a newfangled contraption called a “personal
computer.” We took our own photos, and
we used a darkroom in one corner of our
building to process the film and select
negatives for each week’s news and
sports pages.
On Tuesday mornings, my editor and I
would stand in front of light tables angled
at 45 degrees and proof the copy, X-acto
knives at the ready, literally cutting out
any misspellings or clunky sentences.
Several hours later we’d send our camera-ready pages off to the press in the
back of the publisher’s son’s car, and in
the morning we’d see a brand-new edition
of the Graphic on newsstands around
town. It was magic.
It was also a painfully labor-intensive
process, quite different from today’s desktop publishing standard, in which all is
digitalized, electronic and, in many ways,
encased in mystery. Our process now involves multiple databases, dozens of Microsoft Windows folders and a companywide shared “server” we depend on to
help us produce two dozen newspapers
covering communities all over the greater
Portland area, including Hillsboro.
Yes, things were simpler in the ’80s —
long before email, Facebook, Twitter and
satellite television created a continuous
news cycle that has modern journalists
blogging, Tweeting and posting stories on
the Web seven days a week. For reporters, photographers and editors, the learning curve has been tremendous over the
last three decades. But I wouldn’t want to
turn back the clock, because I think the
myriad technological advances have
EDITOR’S
NOTEBOOK
Nancy Townsley
made us sharper professionals capable of
bringing our reading public fresher, livelier, up-to-the-minute news and photos in
ever more aesthetically appealing packages.
In fact, the Hillsboro Tribune you’re
holding in your hands or reading online
at this moment represents a milestone.
We’re now publishing weekly, every Friday, a change from the every-other-week
schedule we’d maintained since last August, when the paper debuted as Pamplin
Media Group’s 17th community news paper.
Our experienced and intrepid news staff
includes Associate Editor Doug Burkhardt, Sports Editor Amanda Miles, photographer Chase Allgood and reporters
Jim Redden, Kathy Fuller and Stephanie
Haugen. I’m sure you’ll see many of us
around town in the weeks and months to
come.
In January, our company added six
more newspapers to the family, including
the one at which my career had its humble beginnings, the Newberg Graphic.
Looking back, I owe quite a bit to former
publisher Bob McCain, who still lives in
Yamhill County, and his wife Donna, who
passed away last year. As the paper’s
owners, they ran a family-owned, independent operation whose significance I
don’t think I completely appreciated at
the time. Their efforts contributed greatly to shaping that city and making it
what it is today.
I moved on to the Lake Oswego Review in 1984 — and have since covered
business, education, city hall and features in West Linn, Sherwood, Beaverton, Tigard, Tualatin, Forest Grove and
now Hillsboro — but I’ve never forgotten
the lessons I learned at the Graphic.
As journalists, we’re watchdogs and
wayfarers, intent on capturing the essence of what’s going on in the communities we cover and reflecting it back to
our readers. As managing editor of the
Hilsboro Tribune, I intend for this paper
to do just that. This is a growing, changing community that’s full of color and
life, and we look forward to growing and
changing with it.
Our staff is eager to bring you this
community’s images and stories. We’d
like you to help us do that by sending us
a note, calling or stopping by our office.
The Hillsboro Tribune exists for you, and
our door is always open.
Nancy Townsley is managing editor of the Hillsboro Tribune.
WHERE’S THE OFFICE?
So why does the Hillsboro Tribune
have its office in Forest Grove?
It comes down to priorities.
We’d love to have an office in Hillsboro and, in fact, looked at a couple
downtown sites earlier this year.
But, as we geared up for weekly
publication of the Tribune, we decided
to put that money into our Hillsboro
staff and share the News-Times office
located in the historic building our
company already owns in Forest
Grove.
Could there be a Hillsboro Tribune
office down the road?
We’ll see. This is a pay-as-you-go
venture, and right now we’re paying
for our most important asset — our
people.
Even without a physical office, the
Tribune staff will be very connected to
Hillsboro.
Our associate editor, sports editor,
sales manager, education reporter and
feature writer all live inside the Hillsboro School District boundaries.
Our managing editor, arts editor
and photo editor, like me, all live (or
have lived) just west of here, in Forest
Grove.
So, while an office would be nice, we
don’t need a mailing address to be part
of the community.
We are already part of the community.

Airport vital to region’s economy
T
he Hillsboro Chamber of Commerce takes great interest in
the Hillsboro Tribune’s coverage of the Hillsboro Airport
(“Airport Fight May Have a Rough Landing,” Jan. 25, 2013). The chamber is
strongly supportive of the airport as well
as the many businesses located there.
Our support is based on the substantial
contributions the airport makes to our
economy as well as to our community
and quality of life.
The airport is a long-standing institution in Hillsboro. As the Tribune correctly notes, the airport predates most of the
nearby growth that has occurred over
the decades. We don’t mean to come
across as cavalier about noise or other
effects associated with living near an airport. But in most cases, the airport —
and many of its companies — were there
before the critics moved to the area.
The Tribune article cites an impressive array of statistics that speak to the
economic impact of the airport. Here are
just a few:
■ The airport generates more than
$75 million annually in economic impact.
■ There are more than 25 companies
at the airport, providing 436 direct jobs,
most of them in small businesses with 15
or fewer employees. There are nearly
GUEST
COMMENT
Doug Barrett
1,200 total jobs (direct and indirect generated by the airport and its associated
companies).
■ The airport generates $5.5 million
annually in state and local taxes.
In addition, the airport (and one of the
businesses located there) plays a vital
role in Portland Community College’s
Aviation Sciences program, which provides an important career opportunity
for dozens of students annually — many
of them veterans.
These statistics only tell part of the
story. The people who own businesses or
work at the airport are our neighbors.
They pay their taxes. They contribute to
our schools and charitable causes. They
buy goods from our retailers, restaurants, and other businesses.
The companies at the airport have invested in the lives of their employees, and
they have invested in their businesses. It
is too easy to criticize certain aspects of a
company’s operations, and even call for
the closing of a company, without acknowledging what such actions would
have on real people. Do we really want to
shut down companies that have invested
in our community in good faith? Do we
really want to tell their employees they
need to find work somewhere else?
Another important aspect of the airport is its role in business recruitment.
Companies appreciate the opportunity to
fly directly in and out of Hillsboro. We
know of companies that have opted to locate in Hillsboro in part because we have
this strong asset right here. “Oregon Aviation Watch,” a self-described advocacy
organization, may not officially favor the
closure of the airport. But its stance
against some of the companies that operate there certainly does not send a positive message as we seek to invite more
companies to come to Hillsboro.
The airport, and the many businesses
located there, are an important part of
the Hillsboro economy and community.
The chamber wishes to go on record as
being a strong supporter of the airport
and these companies.
Doug Barrett is chairman of the board of directors of the Greater Hillsboro Area Chamber
of Commerce.

Budget uncertainty has
school officials scrambling
With school district officials across the state beginning to build their 2013-14
budgets, it
was a bit of a
good news,
bad news scenario last
week with
budget information coming in from
both the state
SCOTT and federal
governments.
As the heralded federal sequestration spending cuts
went into effect March 1, education officials statewide and
locally scrambled to make
sense of what it will mean for
next year’s budgets.
At the same time, the cochairs of Oregon’s Joint Ways
and Means Committee released a proposed 2013-15 biennium budget that included
■ Hillsboro’s budget committee meets March 19 and
again on April 23.
■ A final public listening
session is tentatively scheduled for April 4 at Brown
Middle School.
■ Superintendent Mike
Scott will present the proposed budget to the committee on May 19.
■ In another public forum,
Reps. Ben Unger and Joe
Gallegos and Sen. Bruce
Starr will join Scott for an
Education Town Hall, 7 to 8
p.m. March 21 at Century
High School, 2000 S.E. Century Blvd. in Room N-225.
■ The most current budget information and meeting
announcements are available on the district’s website,
hsd.k12.or.us.
$6.55 billion for K-12 education,
far higher than Gov. John
Kitzhaber’s $6.15 billion budget
proposal released in December.
Even at a $6.55 billion funding level, Hillsboro school officials will need to make additional cuts during the 2013-14
school year, Superintendent
Mike Scott wrote in a letter to
staff, parents and the community last week.
“Unfortunately for Hillsboro
and many other districts
across the state, it will not be
enough,” he said, to restore
cuts days and other programs
axed in previous years of budget reductions.
Budget scenarios laid out in
Scott’s letter suggested an $8
million shortfall for 2013-14 if
the five cut days are restored
to the school calendar. Cutting
five school days still would
leave the district with a $5.3
million shortfall; and cutting
five days, along with using the
district’s remaining $6.5 million in reserve funds, would
leave a $325,000 shortfall.
Federal cuts coming down
the line are still somewhat of a
mystery, but the district’s chief
financial officer, Adam Stewart, said current information
indicates a 6.6 percent cut to
Title I funding, which helps
pay for direct instructional services for students in high poverty schools.
Hillsboro has 12 high poverty
schools receiving Title I funds,
Two board seats up for grabs
Positions 2, 6 on Hillsboro School
Board draw two hopefuls each
By KATHY FULLER
Two of the four seats up for election on the
Hillsboro School Board are contested races.
As of the Hilllsboro Tribune’s press deadline,
two candidates have filed for Position 2, the seat
being vacated by longtime board member Carolyn Ortman.
Jaime Rodriguez and Miklosch Sander will vie
for that seat. Rodriguez is a career specialist at
Portland Community College’s Workforce Development Center. Sander is an information technology consultant and served as board president of
City View Charter School, the district’s only charter school.
Position 6, currently held by Rebecca Lantz, is
also being contested. Lantz has filed for reelection and will face Erik Seligman. Seligman sits on
the school district’s curriculum committee and is
active in the Washington County Commission on
Children and Families.
Current board members Janeen Sollman and
Monte Akers have filed for reelection to their
seats and are, so far, unopposed.
The special election is set for May 21.
according to Kathy Robinson,
executive director of federal
programs for the district. Hillsboro will receive $3.3 million in
Title I funds this year.
According to Stewart, 6.6
percent reduction in Title I
funding means a $218,000 loss
in federal funds.
Hillsboro also receives $3.7
million in federal funds for
IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act). Stewart expects a 4.7 percent reduction in those funds, resulting in
a loss of about $175,000.
Stewart said the federal cuts
aren’t likely to affect this
year’s budget and that they
won’t occur “until after the
funding allocations for the
2013-14 school year ... but we
don’t yet have confirmation
that this is the case.”

WANTED
WORKERS FROM MEXICO
By KARISSA GEORGE
Jose Jaimie and Melvin Van
Domelen grew up on opposite
sides of the cultural divide
that defined Washington
County’s early experiments
with migrant labor.
Two of Jaimie’s brothers were
braceros, Latin American workers recruited to the United States
to harvest crops during World
War II. He remembers the time
here as being full of sadness.
“The Bracero Program proba-
bly brought many dollars to braceros,” said Jaimie, a Hillsboro
resident. “But [it] brought much
more suffering.”
The Bracero Program (named
for the Spanish word for “laborer”) began in August of 1942 after
Mexico joined the Allies’ war effort. To fill a shortage of agricultural workers, the bracero agreement brought more than 215,000
Mexican and Latin American laborers to the United States in the
program’s first five years alone.
Van Domelen, then a local
farm boy, heard Jaimie’s brothers speak long ago on braceros
at a 4-H fair in Shute Park. Even
as a boy, he recognized their sorrow.
“I think they were homesick,
or missing [their] children,” Van

Shakespeare
meets ’50s TV
Bag&Baggage hits
with ‘contemporary’
adaptation of ‘Wives’
IF YOU GO
“Merry Wives of Windsor”
runs through March 24 at
Hillsboro’s Venetian Theater,
253 E. Main St. Call 503345-9590 for show times.
By DOUG BURKHARDT
Director Scott Palmer’s
contemporary adaptation of
William Shakespeare’s comedy, “The Merry Wives of
Windsor,” celebrates not only
the genius of Shakespeare but
also the creativity of early
television comedies.
The essence of the story revolves around the efforts of three
suitors to win the hand of the
beautiful Miss Anne Page, and
how a clever trap is set for two of
these men.
Palmer’s version is his take on
Restoration-era John Dennis’ adaptation of Shakespeare’s play.
Much has changed from Shakespeare’s original “Merry Wives.”
In fact, the play — performed
at Hillsboro’s classy Venetian
Theatre by the Bag&Baggage
professional theater company —
is a deft blend of Shakespearean
wit and some of the best elements of American television
programming from the late
1950s, a time when iconic celebrities such as Jackie Gleason, Ed
Sullivan and George Burns were
setting the trends in television’s
“Golden Age.”
It was a grand stroke to bring
a Shakespearean set into a more
contemporary setting. The stage
in “Merry Wives” is constructed
as if it were a black-and-white
television set. The characters
dress in gray, black and white,
and the performers even wear
white makeup to heighten the
sense that you are watching a
black-and-white television show.
Yet throughout, the language
and the voice is pure, rich Shakespeare.
Especially humorous is the
way characters insert the
“show’s” advertisers into the dialogue, an early television trick.
Rather than ask someone if they
want a cigarette, for example, the
question becomes: “Would you
like an Old Gold menthol cigarette?”
Anyone remember that quirk
from television’s early days?
Speaking of Jackie Gleason,
the wonderful performance of
Gary Strong — who plays the
lead role of Falstaff — recalls
Gleason’s boisterous ways.
Strong and Arianne Jacques,
who plays Miss Anne Page, turn
in especially entertaining performances, but the entire production is polished and sharp.
In explaining why he chose to
bring Shakespeare into the television era, director Palmer said
he believes art “is a process of
re-appropriating characters, narratives, styles and plots from one
generation, one culture, one
time, one medium to the next.”
Palmer, the founding artistic
director of the innovative
Bag&Baggage theater company,
has wildly succeeded in making
his vision a reality.
Domelen said.
Both men have shared their
recollections as part of the
Washington County Museum’s
newest exhibit, “Americans All:
The Bracero Program in Washington County.” The exhibit focuses on the oral histories
gathered from those who participated in and observed braceros in this area and will be
the topic of a March 19 presentation at the Walters Cultural
Arts Center.
“It’s a bit of a complex story,”
said Krissy Rowan, the museum’s communications director.
The exhibit, which opened last
fall in the museum’s new downtown Hillsboro location, showcases how individualized and
diverse the experiences were for

Transgender talk set at Pacific
Biologist focuses on
discrimination
during presentation
By BRETT TALLMAN
As a child, Julia Serano
knew something deep inside
her was wrong. But it wasn’t
until years later that she
heard a strange new word
that described her problem:
transgender.
She has since realized that
her “problem” is just one of the
many ways human nature expresses itself.
“It comes down to the fact
that all people are fundamentally diverse,” Serano said.
“And that applies to gender as
well.”
Transgender is an umbrella
term for people who defy society’s gender norms. It doesn’t
necessarily describe sexual
orientation, but rather gender
identity and includes people
who, in one way or another,
identify with a different sex
than the one assigned at birth.
One in 10 children are gender-nonconforming in a significant enough way that they
experience discrimination,
says Jenn Burleton, executive
director of Portland-based
TransActive Education & Advocacy.
Burleton gets her statistics
from a 2012 Harvard School of
Public Health study, which also found that one in every 300
people is transgender to the
point that they change their
gender.
Burleton’s organization is
currently serving about 150
gender-nonconforming children in the Portland metro area.
“There is still discussion
about how much being transgender is about sexuality,”
said Pacific University professor Martha Rampton. “It really
has more to do with identity

Hall, 2043 College Way,

than sexuality.”
Rampton directs Pacific’s
Center for Gender Equity,
where students researched Serano and requested that the
center bring her to campus.
Serano, herself transgender,
is a San Francisco-based biologist with a Ph.D. in biochemistry from Columbia University.
She is also on the forefront of
the transgender-rights movement and travels across the
country sharing her story. Her
next stop will be Tuesday in
Forest Grove.
Serano won acclaim for her
first book, “Whipping Girl,”
and has a second — an essay
collection — set to be released
in the fall. Its working title,
“Excluded: Making Feminist
and Queer Movements More
Inclusive,” hints at Serano’s
philosophy.
“The trans movement is not
just to help transgender people,” Serano said. “Everyone on
the planet has at some point
felt they were doing their gender wrong. It’s a problem that
all people face and we want
people to be more free to be
themselves.”
The feeling of doing one’s
gender wrong is one Serano
knows well.
“As a kid I knew something
wasn’t right with the way I
was,” she said. “I went through
a period from childhood to ear-
ly adulthood when I was trying
to make sense of my gender,
but I didn’t begin living as a
woman until (I was 32). That
was in 2001.”
By that time, there were
more books on transgender
people and awareness of the issues they dealt with. “That
helped me make sense of my
own experiences,” Serano said.
“Whipping Girl” shares
some of those experiences and
sheds light on the difficult situations transgender women face
when moving through the
world.
Transgender Americans
were left behind by the civil
rights movement of the 1960s,
Serano said, when minorities,
women, gays and lesbians and
other groups were learning to
speak out.
“In the ’60s and ’70s trans
people were a part of the gayrights movement” — until gay
and lesbian groups kicked
them out, she said. As a result,
the trans movement didn’t really start until the 1990s, Serano said, so now, “trans rights

be moving into the former Synopsys software company offices
to the south, and the 130 additional employees Oracle Corp.
has promised to hire at its nearby high-tech manufacturing
plant.
The city is requiring Intel to
tackle the improvements as part
of its construction permit to build
a second D1X manufacturing facility and office building at the
Ronler Acres campus. The county is also assessing Intel approximately $6.7 million in Transportation Development Taxes for the
project. The amount will be credited against the money Intel
spends on the improvements,
which is likely to be much more.
Intel is not complaining, however. Company officials know its
growth in Hillsboro is unprecedented in Oregon.
“This is new territory, and everyone is trying to figure out how
to manage it correctly,” said Jill
Eiland, the company’s northwest
regional corporate affairs manager.

Rush hour congestion
This is not the first time the
city has required Intel to undertake street improvements as a
condition of acquiring a building
permit. For example, Intel was
required to build Ronler Drive,
from Northwest Cornelius Pass
Road to the campus, as a condition of its permit for the first D1X
facility. Intel says the project cost
around $3.5 million. The company then deeded the finished road
to the city. Intel is also installing
a traffic circle and making other
improvements at the Southwest
Butler Street and 65th Avenue
entrance to its campus. The estimated cost for that work is over
$2 million.

more traditional, suburban-style
neighborhoods near Orenco Station paid for the residential
streets, which were then deeded
over to Hillsboro.
Many cities require new developments to help offset additional
infrastructure costs by paying
related charges. But Hillsboro is
going much further than most by
requiring specific projects for the
biggest ones. The practice helps
explain how Hillsboro has mitigated some of the problems normally associated with fast
growth — and how it plans to
keep pace with its increasing
population and employment
base.
Map of projects
The Intel projects are identified on a map of 44 transportation
projects scheduled in Hillsboro
in coming years. Mayor Jerry
Willey presented the map at last
month’s “State of the City”
speech. Only eight of the projects
will be financed by developers.
The rest rely on federal, state,
county and city funds.
Washington County is the
only county in the state that
dedicates a fixed portion of its
property tax revenues to transportation projects. The Major
Street Transportation Improvement Program began as a series
of serial levies approved by
county voters in 1986, 1989 and
1995. But when Oregon voters
approved the state’s complicated
property tax limitation system
in the late 1990s, the last levy became part of the county’s tax
base.
All of the spending must be
approved by the Washington
County Coordinating Committee, which is comprised of representatives from the commission and cities in the county. It
receives and considers funding
requests from the various governments.
By the end of this year,
MSTIP will have helped fund
111 multi-modal transportation
projects, totaling $555 million.
Major projects completed to
date in Hillsboro include sections of 170th Avenue, 185th Avenue, Baseline Road, Brookwood Avenue/Parkway, Cornelius Pass Road, Cornell Road
and Evergreen Parkway/Road.
Like other cities in the county,
Hillsboro also assesses a fee on
residents and businesses to help
maintain its streets. The citywide Transportation Utility Fee
was approved by the City Council three years ago. The fees appear on monthly utility bills that
also include water and sewer
charges. The fee for single-family homes is currently $3.18 a
month, while the business fees
range from $1 to around $1,300 a
month. The TUF is projected to
generate $1.75 million this fiscal
year.
Washington County also has
a $1 per gallon gas tax to help
maintain its roads, and Hillsboro receives a share of that.
In the middle of the day, Northwest Cornelius Pass Road from
U.S. 26 to Ronler Drive does not
look like it needs much work.
Traffic flows smoothly along its
four lanes, helped by turn lanes
at major intersections such as
Northwest Evergreen Parkway.
But during the morning and
evening rush hours, the situation
is different. The road fills with
traffic from U.S. 26, Northwest
Evergreen Parkway and Imbrie
Drive. When Intel officials started talking about expanding the
Ronler Acres campus again, city
planners knew it was time for a
major upgrade. Intel agreed, and
committed to four projects related to the road. The city agreed to
take responsibility for a fifth one.
The projects Intel agreed to
fund will completely transform
the function and appearance of
the road. Intel will add additional
northbound and southbound
lanes, construct an eastbound
turn lane from Butler, construct a
westbound turn lane at Evergreen and add pedestrian islands
in the median at key intersections.
Intel will also add a second
westbound to southbound offramp from U.S. 26. And it will add
bicycle lanes on Cornelius Pass
Road and some connecting
streets.
Intel officials do not yet know
how much all this work will cost.
They suspect it will be more than
the $6.7 million in TDTs charged
to their most recent expansion
project. The company will look to
partner with the city and county
on some of the work if possible,
but are ultimately responsible
for completing it.
As part of the deal, Hillsboro
has agreed to build a new right
turn lane from Cornelius Pass to
U.S. 26.
But that is not the end of Intel’s investment in Hillsboro as
part of its most recent expansion
permit. The company is also adding an additional eastbound lane
to Ronler Drive. And it is modifying signals and making further
improvements on Northwest
229th Avenue, just north of its
campus.

“This process can take up to
five or six months,” Louie said.
“And with a community the size
of Hillsboro, it will have to be a
nationwide search.”
Since stepping in as interim
chief last week, Louie said he
has not had any direct contact
with Sullivan.
“Not yet,” Louie said, “but I
do want to see Carey. We chiefs
are a fraternity, and we all
know what it is like to face the
decisions Chief Sullivan has
had to make.”
Louie squashed any idea that
he might consider returning as
Hillsboro’s permanent police
chief.
“Nope,” he said. “I love being
a chief and miss all the people,
but I also love teaching, and
golf, and skiing, and traveling.
Get the picture?”
Since leaving the police
force, Louie has been busy
teaching at area colleges. He
is an adjunct professor of
criminal justice at Portland
State University and Portland
Community College, and an
adjunct professor of political
science at Pacific University
in Forest Grove.
Louie pointed out that he
has been impressed with the
way Hillsboro’s police officers
have responded to Sullivan’s
departure.
“Any change creates disruption and concern with the un-
known,” Louie said. “As far as
how the membership is handling it, well, HPD police officers and staff are very professional, and they will continue
providing outstanding service
to the community without
missing a step. That’s how we
in public safety are wired.”
Louie acknowledged the
transition will almost certainly create additional difficulties for the city’s police force,
but he believes the department’s officers and staff are
handling the challenge very
well.
“There is always stress and
strain with losing leadership;
there is a sense of loss and
concern with what the future
holds,” Louie explained. “I can
only speak for my one week
back home again, but I can
say they are quite literally remaining calm and carrying
on. Again, you are talking
about people who face adversity — even danger — every
shift, and they are resilient.”

Hillsboro does not have
the legal authority to regulate the airspace above the
Hillsboro Airport.
City officials made that assertion to the state Land Use
Board of Appeals last month in
response to an effort by Oregon Aviation Watch — a
Banks-based nonprofit that
serves as a watchdog group on
aviation issues — to reverse a
city council vote. The vote that
sparked the controversy repealed a subchapter of the
city’s municipal code that allowed Hillsboro to regulate flying activities.
The OAW claims the vote
was a land-use matter that required a public hearing, which
was not held. Hillsboro officials disagreed, saying it was
not a land-use matter.
A LUBA hearing on the issue
was scheduled for March 13.
No date has been set for LUBA
to make a decision.
The airport is owned and operated by the Port of Portland.
The council voted to repeal the
subchapter on
Dec. 4, 2012, after
city attorneys said
it was outdated
because federal
law preempts local regulation of
flying activities at
airports.
OAW appealed
the decision to
LUBA on Feb. 6.
The city responded on March 6.
In its response to LUBA, city
officials said the “petitioners
have failed to demonstrate that
federal law permits local jurisdictions to regulate ‘intrastate’
aircraft operations, and have
certainly failed to make this
demonstration relative to local
jurisdictions like Hillsboro,
who do not own or operate an
airport.”
City officials also argued
that LUBA does not have jurisdiction over the vote because it
was not a land-use matter.
“If LUBA determines the decision is a land-use decision
over which it has jurisdiction,
the city respectfully requests the
Board to affirm
the city’s decision,” read an excerpt from the
city’s response.
The nonprofit
OAW has long
complained about
noise and exhaust
fumes from the
small airplanes
and helicopters
used by students at Hillsboro
Aviation, a flight school based
at the airport. It also opposes
federal funds being spent to expand airport operations.
Joining OAW in the appeal of
the council vote were Hillsboro
resident Ruth Warren and
board members Michelle
Barnes and Jim Lubisher.

Pacific Landscape named
‘best’ again
For the second time in two years, Pacific Landscape of Hillsboro has been
named one of the 100 best companies to
work for by Oregon Business magazine.
The company was ranked 19th best
among companies with more than 100
employees in 2013. The rankings are
complied by the magazine and DHM Research, and are based on employee surveys and a benefits report from each
company.
“The past several years have been
tough in our industry and our dedicated, experienced staff has been our
strength and guided us through,” said
company President Bob Grover. “When
we set out to build our business, one of
our top goals was to be best in class as
a service provider and employer. We
are proud to get the acknowledgment
that we are achieving both of these
goals.”
Hillsboro firm gets award for
innovative practices
The Northwest Food Processors Association recognized Hillsboro-based
Henningsen Cold Storage for “innovative employee engagement policies”
earlier this year.
The Premier Employer Award honors organizations that consistently provide lower-income staff with improved
economic opportunities, often through
education initiatives. HCS received the
award in January of this year in recognition of the company’s standard of pro-
viding extensive employee training, as
well as its demonstrated history of promoting from within.
In accepting the award, HCS executive vice president Tony Lucarelli explained the company trained and
groomed employees by necessity, noting that Henningsen warehouse locations were dictated by customer need,
not by work force supply.
The award is sponsored in part by
the Hitachi Foundation and its partnership with the NWFPA’s Education &
Research Institute. Through this project, HCS was one of 11 companies singled out for in-depth study of best employer practices.

Tuality exec named
to care council
Sonney Sapra, Tuality Healthcare’s
chief information officer, has been appointed to the national Cerner Client
Care Council, an invitation-only group
of information technology executives
that works closely with Cerner Corp.
to improve its health care IT products.
Sapra, who also serves as Tuality’s
director of information systems, is one
of 50 Cerner clients who serve on the
Client Care Council. Cerner is an international health care information technology company with more than 2,100
clients. Cerner is Tuality’s vendor for
electronic medical records and computerized physician order entry technology.
Sapra said the council meets twice a
year at Cerner’s headquarters in Kansas City, Mo., and has many “virtual”
meetings. The council’s task, Sapra
said, is to provide direction and feedback on the company’s products.
“Tuality Healthcare management
has recognized what an outstanding
leader and visionary Sonney is regarding health care technology,” said Manny Berman, Tuality’s chief operating
officer. “It’s nice to see the acknowledgment from an internationally known
vendor.”

“This is the final green light,”
he pointed out.

both jobs and transportation alternatives,” said Gary Vance,

Virginia Garcia Memorial Health Center in Hillsboro is now an integral part of a new national
medical residency program.
This month, the medical facility — which has four
primary care clinics and pharmacies, three dental offices and three school-based health centers spread
across Washington and Yamhill counties — has become one of only six community health centers around
the nation participating in a first-ever multi-state
medical residency network.
The Wright Center for Graduate Medical Education
in Scranton, Penn., developed and will manage the
program, which was funded by a $4 million grant from
the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration.
Over the next three years, sponsors expect to
place as many as 87 medical school graduates into
community health centers in at-risk communities
around the country.
The new endeavor is a potential model for residency programs across the country because it addresses two of the nation’s most pressing health care
challenges — the shortage of primary care physicians trained to work with America’s most vulnerable populations and potential changes in federal
funding, which may leave thousands of new doctors
without a place to complete their training.
With research showing that new doctors tend to
practice in the communities where they have done
their residencies, there is a glaring need to create
opportunities for residents to train in these communities.

The Hillsboro Hops are the
Single-A baseball affiliate of the
Arizona Diamondbacks of Major League Baseball. The team
will make its home debut in
their new state of the art stadium in Hillsboro on Monday,
June 17, against the Eugene Emeralds. The 4,500-seat stadium is
being financed by the sale of $12
million in city bonds at 2.74 percent and the sale of surplus city
property for an additional $3.2
million. The complex and stadium are owned by Hillsboro’s
Parks and Recreation Department.
BridgePort Brewing is located
at 1313 N.W. Marshall St. in Portland, where Tuesday’s celebration was held.

The Hillsboro Hops celebrated its new partnership
with BridgePort Brewing
Tuesday evening with a gettogether at the popular
brewpub in Portland’s Pearl
District. The event was attended by team and brewery
representatives as well as
dozens of season ticket
holders.
“We’re thrilled to be partnering with the oldest craft
brewery in Oregon,” said Hops

details of the
arrangement.
But Wombacher said corporate sponsorships are critical to the success of teams
BURK like his.
“Without
corporate sponsorships, our
ticket prices would have to
triple, and we wouldn’t be able
to offer special attractions like
giveaways and fireworks,”
Wombacher explained.
During the event, Wombacher announced he had just
learned that the lower level
box seats at the stadium under
construction in the Gordon Faber Recreation Complex had
sold out.
“That’s a milestone,” Wombacher said.

I like to explore new toys
and play together with

first meet. It takes me
some time to learn about
you and trust you. But if
you are patient and loving,
you will get tons of rubbing,

and I’ll even put my chin in
your palm meowing and

I like it. I like to sleep in
your bed with you, or with
my buddy Hershey so that
we can help each other

PACIFIC CONFERENCE GOLF
Glencoe boys looking forward to big things in 2013
Crimson Tide return all five members of last year’s
team that finished second in the Pacific Conference
By AMANDA MILES
Hillsboro Tribune
The 2013 season has all the indications of being a stellar one for the
Glencoe boys golf team — experience, talent, numbers.
Last season, Glencoe took second
place to Tualatin in the Pacific Conference championships and went on to
place 11th as a team in the Class 6A
state tournament.
The five varsity members of that
squad — Connor Tripp (tie for 69th
place at state), Jared Duvall (tie for
29th), Ethan Zickel (tie for 51st), Nick
Karich (75th) and Hayden Vetter (state
qualifier) — all return this year, Glencoe coach Tim Duvall said.
“We are very excited and optimistic
about our season because we have them
all coming back,” Duvall said of his top
five. “And we feel like if we play the way
we’re capable of playing, we should
have another good year this year.”
Even from the first week of practice,
the team appears primed for competition. During the Tide’s three-day
“qualifying tournament,” from which
the 10-player squad was eventually selected, Tripp and Jared Duvall, Tim
Duvall’s son, wound up tied for first
after 27 holes of play, as were Zickel
and Karich for third.
“The top five kids, golf is their No. 1
thing,” Duvall said. “They’ve all put
time in over the summer.”
Like the Tide boys, Glencoe’s girls
also made state in 2012, finishing 10th.
But this year’s squad will be sporting
a different look, as the Tide’s top two
finishers at state a year ago, Maggie
Harlow and Erin Evers, have graduated, and basketball star Marly Anderson, now a senior, has elected not
to turn out this season.
The Tide’s fourth golfer from 2012,
Becca Collins, does return and coach
Mark Ferris said she is the team’s top
player. Collins finished 75th at state
last year.
Junior Chelsea Plinke is back on the
squad after missing last season while
being an exchange student in France.
Freshman Debbie Yuhanna and firstyear players Kaitland Kirwin (a junior)
and Caroline Smith (a sophomore) will
also play for the Tide this year.
Century boys golf coach Claude
Landauer said that his team enters
this season with a dearth of tournament experience, but the good news is
that the squad has numbers.
In Colson Gower — a senior whom
Landauer said he expects to make the
state tournament — and Jordan Scheffer, Century has two returners with
varsity experience. Two other players
with JV experience are back, and
eight newbies are giving high school
golf a try this season.
Among the other Hillsboro-area programs, Hilhi’s Breann Nielsen participated as an individual in the 6A girls
tournament in 2012, taking 65th place.
Dean: Qualified for Class 6A state meet in four events last year
■ From page A14
my parents, and I remember
we would always get our blankets and come and watch all
the family members,” Anna recalled.
In fact, Dean’s success may
not come as much of a surprise to anyone familiar with
the Dean family. Anna — the
youngest of seven children —
comes from a long line of siblings that has bolstered the
Hilhi track and field program
for well more than a decade.
Grant Dean, a 2004 Hilhi
graduate who is now 27, set
the family standard early as a
sprinter and jumper, winning
the Class 4A state title in the
long jump as a senior.
Britany, 25, won two league
titles in the pole vault, qualified for state in that event and
in the short relay a total of
four times and also was a solid
triple jumper.
Rachel, 22, was a multi-time
league finalist in the hurdles
and relays, and Jordan, 20, also
sprinted for the Spartans.
Spencer, 18, placed fourth in
the district meet last season,
and is one of the top returners
for the Hilhi boys this spring.
Only Nick, 24, did not run
track for the school, though he
did wrestle.
And then there is Anna, who
Hilhi coach Tim Kasper said
was the school’s first fourevent state qualifier since Erin
Kelly — a four-time state
champion in the high hurdles
and triple jump — in 1998.
As for Spencer, who is getting to observe his little sister’s early high school career
from up close as a teammate,
he knows where she is already
fitting into the family legacy.
“The first one and the last
one are probably the two best
ones,” said Spencer, referring
to Grant and Anna. “So we
went in strong, went out
strong. I’m definitely happy for
her and I’m excited to watch
her when she’s a senior.”
Of course, Dean will play a
considerable role in the Hilhi
girls’ success this season, but
she is not the only standout on
the team, which tied for sev-

enth at state a year ago.
Relay mates Estep and
Taube, finalists in the 100 and
200 at the 2012 district meet,
are back this season, as is Erika Moellmer, a state qualifier
in the pole vault. District plac-
ers Tanya Jones (third, 800)
and Lauren Lykins (fifth, 3,000;
seventh, 1,500) will offer support in the mid-distance and
distance races.
“On the track we have some
quality back,” Kasper said.
Besides Moellmer in the
pole vault, the Spartans have
some holes to fill in the field
events after graduating twotime high jump state champion
Michelle Ellis and thrower
Sydney Johnson, the state runner-up in the discus.
As for the boys team, which
finished toward the bottom of
the league standings in 2012
while competing a number of
young athletes, Spencer Dean
returns in the sprints and long
jump, as do high hurdlers finalists Adrian Arteaga and Michael Gaskell.
A year ago in the district
meet, Tim McSpadden was
seventh in the 3,000 and Michael Gonzalez took seventh
in the long jump, while classmate Ben Speer was eighth in
the javelin.
Kasper also expects sprinter
Adam Morton to contribute.
He ran a leg on the Spartans’
fourth-place relay team, along
with Dean, Gaskell and Gonzalez.
Logan Stugart throws the
shot and discus, while Christian Jackson was ninth at districts in the javelin.
Liberty Falcons
These are exciting times for
the Liberty track and field program. More than 100 kids have
turned out for the team this
year, Falcons coach Perry
Beeler said.
“They’re looking really
good,” Beeler said. “The kids
that we got out, they’re all enthusiastic, they’re all working
hard.”
For the girls — second at the
Northwest Oregon Conference
district meet last spring —
sprinters Ashley Martin and
MacKenzie Beeler return this
season after helping the short
relay finish sixth at the state
meet.
Martin was third in the 100
at districts, and Beeler finished third in the long jump
and fifth in the 100. Eli Pecsok
won the high hurdles and high
jump at districts and made the
state finals in the hurdles,
while Sarah Martinez was a
state finalist in the 400 and Tiana Dolson was ninth in the
long jump.
Beeler is excited to welcome
back Hannah Langbehn, a former state meet participant and
sprinter/jumper who suffered
a season-ending injury last
year, and is “looking for big
things from” Simone Wilson,
the school record holder in the
javelin.
Freshman Rachel Khaw,
second in the NWOC district
meet and 10th in the Class 5A
cross country state meet this
past fall, offers a lot of potential in the distance events.
On the boys side, in 2012,
James Marshall and Matthew
Langbehn finished 3-4 in the
400 meters in the district meet.
And just a junior, John Horn
is the school record holder in
the three throwing events.
Horn took second place in the
javelin at districts and eighth
at state last year. He also was
sixth in the shot put at districts, while Nick Bonat recorded top-five finishes in both
hurdles races as just a freshman.
Baseball: Glencoe, Hilhi also
hope to be in the playoff hunt
■ From page A13
this year, while infielder Chandler Stobbs, Chaz Stobbs’
younger brother, is the lone underclassman on the squad.
“Real excited about what he
brings,” Bunting said about the
younger Stobbs. “His knowledge of the game as a sophomore is just unparalleled.”
After participating in a jamboree at West Linn on Monday,
Century defeated Aloha 5-1 on
the road on Tuesday. The Jaguars are scheduled to take on
Centennial in Gresham today.
Their Pacific Conference opener is slated for April 2 at home
against defending champion
Tualatin — a team Bunting
tabbed as the favorite again in
2013.

With 10 seniors on this year’s
Glencoe baseball roster, coach
Tim Stewart calls his 2013 team
“a great group and a very experienced group that has been
working real hard over the winter and then the last couple
weeks in practice. We’re excited about getting out on the field
and seeing what we’re capable
of.”
What that experience and effort translates into in terms of
results remains to be seen, but
the squad does return quite a
bit of talent. The Tide were 1017 overall in 2012 and 4-13 in
league play, finishing eighth in

of good things from him this
year,” Stewart said.
Other returning infielders
are Kyle Campbell and first
baseman Trevor Williams, who
Stewart said should return
soon from injury, plus catcher
Dan Spendle. Senior Jack
Coates, a transfer from Hilhi,
should also help at catcher, and
Stewart said pitcher J.C. Previtera “has looked real promising
in the offseason” after being
slowed by injury last year.
Glencoe dropped a 4-1 decision to Liberty at Hillsboro Stadium on Monday and is scheduled to play at Clackamas today, starting at 5 p.m.
Hillsboro Spartans
The Spartans will look to improve on a 2012 season in which
they finished 10-16 overall, tied
McMinnville for fourth place in
the Pacific Conference, and lost
12-7 to West Linn in the Class
6A play-in round as the conference’s fifth seed.
“We have goals to strive
higher, but when you look back
at the makeup of our team …
finishing tied for fourth was a
good season last year for us,
and we’ll hope to be in the top
half of the league this year,”
Hilhi coach Matthew Bailie
said.
This year’s team will be without the services of Noah Meisner and Austin Cooksey, allleague pitchers who graduated
in 2012, but the cupboard is not
bare for Hilhi. First team allleague third baseman Stefanos
Panayiotou returns for his final
season, and junior pitcher
Chase Kaplan, a second team
pick in 2012, also is back.
“He’s one of the best pitchers
in the league,” Bailie said, referring to Kaplan.
Other seniors include catcher Lauden Lusey, plus Joe Huffman, Kelly Grissom and Vinny
Gordy, who can all play in the
infield. Jack Merrill, now in his
fourth varsity season, will patrol the infield at shortstop and
also can pitch.
One newcomer to keep an
eye on is Damon Peters, a
freshman who started at second base for the Spartans in
their season-opening 11-3 victory at Aloha on Monday. Senior Clayton Vandervelden
may also see some time at that
position.
Bailie said that sophomore
Dylan Frederick will play center field, and other outfielders
are Austin Lutheran and Cody
Parmelee, both juniors.
The Spartans’ first Pacific
Conference game is scheduled
for April 2 at Forest Grove.
Liberty: PSU-bound Flores returns from injury
■ From page A13
Ashley Driscoll, a junior who
split time with Herbert on the
mound, will “be carrying most
of the load this year,” according
to Meeuwsen.
After missing most of last
season because of a stress fracture, senior Alex Flores — a
first team NWOC pick in 2011
who will continue her softball
career at Portland State — is
back at catcher for the Falcons.
“I’m expecting big things from
her,” Meeuwsen said. “She’s a
big hitter, she’s a great team
leader. She knows the game, she
has a passion for the game.”
Paige Smotherman, now a
sophomore, filled in for Flores a
year ago and became an honorable mention all-state catcher.
Meeuwsen expects her to play
third base. And another sophomore, Meeuwsen’s daughter
Kelly, will slide from second base
to shortstop after being a second
team all-state pick in 2012.
Also returning are outfielders
Karolyn Mason, who made the
all-state third team a year ago,
Kylie Wruble and Chandie Perez.
Brittany Giesbers is the team’s
likely second baseman, while Sierra LaMotte will start at first.
Liberty is testing itself in
non-conference play, with
games scheduled against four
Pacific Conference teams to
start the season.

be the strength of the team,”
Gillett said.
Jason Sandwisch will start at
catcher this season, moving in
from the outfield, while Zach
Chitwood is back at shortstop
(NWOC honorable mention in
2012). Left-hander Derek Beeler plays right field, pitches and
has “just an absolute cannon of
an arm,” Gillett said.
And though just a sophomore, Tyler Parker already
boasts varsity experience at
third base after being brought
up from the freshman team to
fill out the lineup in 2012. Another sophomore, Ryan Kaser,
will attempt to fill Bafaro’s
shoes in center field.
“He’s now the fastest player
on the team,” Gillett said of
Kaser. “Ton of speed, really
good arm.”
Kyle Rose, Alex Rose’s
younger brother, lettered as a
freshman last year and will
play left field this season, while
junior Austin Krieck “brings a
big bat to the lineup.”
“We really feel good about
our lineup one through nine,”
Gillett said. “I haven’t always
said that. This year I really feel
good one through nine through
our lineup, and I really feel
good one through five with our
pitching.”
Between all the upperclassmen, American Legion summer
play, and fall ball participation,
Liberty brings a great deal of
experience into 2013.
“They’re just taking baseball
way more serious,” Gillett noted. “They’re watching baseball
on TV at home now, they’re
talking about the (Hillsboro)
Hops coming out. Our program
is really, really growing.”
The Falcons are testing
themselves early this season.
Their nonconference schedule
includes games against Pacific
Conference squads Glencoe (a
4-1 win on Monday), McMinnville (Wednesday, after the
Tribune deadline), Hillsboro (5
p.m. today at Hare Field) and
Century (at home on Monday).
They are also scheduled to
play five contests at a tournament in San Diego over spring
break before starting NWOC
play at Parkrose on April 2.
If the Century baseball
team can build their 2013 season on how they ended 2012,
the Jaguars will do just fine
this year.
Last season, Century went
10-18 overall and 5-12 in the Pacific Conference, tying for sixth
place with Forest Grove.
But the Jaguars found something special for the postseason — they knocked off South
Medford on the road in a Class
6A play-in game and then upset state power Lake Oswego
1-0 in the first round before
falling to conference rival Newberg in the second round.
Century coach Kyle Bunting
said many of the players who
were part of the 2012 playoff
run are back this season. But
he also admitted to “some
question marks in some spots.”
A year ago, five Jaguars
earned honorable mention Pacific Conference honors —
Tanner Cole, Andrew Queener
and Tyler Jorgensen graduat-
ed last spring. But Brad Bennett is back on the pitching
mound, as is Chaz Stobbs at
first base.
“If we can play to the potential that we have, then we’ll be
a team that could make some
noise, but definitely we’re just
looking to reach the consistency level where we’re playing
solid baseball in every game,”
Bunting said.
Kyle Gilligan will also figure
into the pitching rotation, Bun-
ting said, while Sam Bates and
Vance Hamilton are returning
starters in the outfield. Josh
Dunquist will fill in for the departed Jorgensen at third base,
while Marcos Hernandez is the
odds-on starting catcher.
Bunting looks for Tristan
Howell, who “will step up and
be a strong left-handed bat in
the lineup” and Hunter Hall to
step into more prominent roles

final season on the mound at
Glencoe. She played a large role
in the success of last season,
when the team went 23-7 overall

Alyssa Davis is now playing

“I think we’re really excited,”
Glencoe coach Jacy Jukkala

Jukkala, for whom last year’s

High hopes
for Liberty
golf teams
this season
Liberty girls return
three state qualifiers,
and boys have four
players coming back
By amanda miles
Hillsboro Tribune
What the Liberty girls golf
team lacks in quantity it
could well make up for in
quality this season.
Only five players turned out
for golf this spring — though
that number is one greater
than in 2012 — but three of
them are returners with state
tournament experience, which
should come in handy during
the championship portion of
the season.
“We should be pretty solid,”
Liberty coach Stuart Kivett
said. “My No. 1, 2 and 3 players
… they’ve got a lot of experience, and they’re just really
super neat ladies and they’re
very motivated on their own.”
Those top three Kivett referenced are McKenzie Oster and
sisters Sam and Stephanie Miller, who all are back after helping Liberty win its fourth consecutive Northwest Oregon
Conference title and fifth state
berth in as many years in 2012.
The Falcons charged from
behind on the second day of the
district tournament to knock
off first-day leader Wilsonville
by a single point in the modified stableford scoring system.
At the Class 5A girls state
tournament at Trysting Tree
Golf Club in Corvallis last
spring, Sam Miller tied for seventh place, Oster tied for 15th,
and Stephanie Miller was 27th.
The trio helped the Falcons
end the first day in fifth place
as a team, but a shot at a team
trophy was derailed when the
fourth and final member of Liberty’s squad (four players are
necessary to record a team
score) became ill on the night
between rounds and was unable to play the next day.
This season, Kivett expects
Sam Miller, a senior, and Oster,
a junior, to provide the squad
with a strong one-two punch,
though he noted that Oster
might be a bit rusty in the season’s early going after coming
off of basketball season.
As for Liberty’s fourth and
fifth players, Amanda Takara is
a sophomore transfer from St.
Helens who Kivett said has a
year’s worth of golf experience
under her belt, while Elaina
Maki is completely new to the
sport but is “learning very
quickly” and is a “natural athlete.”
“Without a doubt, we’ll have
a couple of girls, at least, make
it to the state tournament, I’m
sure,” Kivett noted. “But I think
there’s a very good chance that
as a team we’ll make it again.
You just never know what the
other teams are bringing to the
dance.”
As for the Liberty boys, Jesse
Simonsen, Jon Grossen, Trevor
Lane and Austin Sitton all enter the 2013 season with varsity
experience, but the roster also
includes six freshmen.
Coach Doug Girod said that
his squad — third in the conference tournament in 2012 — expects to wind up in the upper
half of the NWOC and has a
goal of qualifying for state.
Simonsen started the season
in fine form by tying for medalist honors in Monday’s NWOC
tournament at Wildwood Golf
Course in Portland. Sherwood
breezed to victory with a score
of 321, while the Falcons were
third, only three shots behind
St. Helens.

Hillsboro sophomore Anna Dean reviews her hurdle times with track and field coach Larry Binkerd during a practice last week. Dean, the youngest of seven children who have all
attended Hilhi, is one of the top returners in the Pacific Conference after winning district championships in the 100 meters and 110-meter hurdles last season.

Hillsboro sophomore Anna Dean,
the youngest of seven children,
could well be the best of the bunch
By amanda miles
Hillsboro Tribune
I
n 2012, Anna Dean had the kind of season
that many high school track and field participants hope to achieve by the time they are
seniors. Except last year, she was just a
freshman.
Competing for Hillsboro, Dean made quite an impression in her debut season by winning Pacific
Conference district meet titles in the 100 meters and
100-meter hurdles, as well as anchoring the Spartans’ victorious 400-meter relay to a school-record
time. She also finished as runner-up in the 300 hurdles, qualifying for the Class 6A state meet in the
maximum four events. Her efforts helped Hilhi win
the district meet title by just 1½ points.
Participating in the state meet at Hayward Field
in Eugene can be an intimidating experience even
for seasoned athletes. But Dean continued to demonstrate poise beyond her years last May by making
the finals in all of her events. Along with teammates
Cassidy Estep, Kylee Taube and Daphne Stanfield,
she placed fourth in the short relay. And she finished fifth in the high hurdles and seventh in both

the Spartans’ track and field practice last week.
the 100 and the low hurdles.
“Coming into high school, I was expecting to do
well, but not as well as I did, because I knew there
was going to be a lot more competition (than in mid-
dle school),” Dean said last week. “There’s a lot
more people out for track, everyone’s faster. So I
didn’t know what to expect until my first couple
meets, and then I was winning all my races. It didn’t
really seem like it was real to me at first.”
But it was real, and after her bravura performance last year, Dean has established herself as one
of the Pacific Conference athletes to watch this season in track, which is starting to crank up this week
with the first meets of 2013.
Dean will still be spending plenty of time in the
sprints and hurdles this season, but she may be adding the triple jump to her repertoire as well, possibly in place of the 300 hurdles.
When Dean, now 16, turned out for track a year
ago, she was not a complete neophyte. She already
had two years of experience under her belt at the
middle school level.
“In eighth grade, she blew kids out of the water in
those junior high track meets, but you don’t really
know what that’s going to look like at the high
school level,” said Dean’s older sister, Britany, a 2005
Hilhi graduate and an assistant coach for the Spartans this spring. “So I think we were all pretty taken
back by how well she did last year, but it was really
exciting.”
Perhaps she was just ready for her turn after having spent years watching her older siblings compete.
“I remember being at meets at Hare Field with

Liberty baseball on the rise
Falcons continue building their program on the
heels of a school-record 17-win season in 2012
By amanda miles
Hillsboro Tribune
The 2012 season was a standout one for Liberty. The Falcons
went 17-11 overall and 14-7 in the
Northwest Oregon Conference
— good for third place behind
Sherwood and Putnam — setting
a school record for wins.
In the postseason, Liberty won a
Class 5A home play-in game
against Hermiston before falling
8-2 to a tough Pendleton team in
the first round.
This season shows the promise
to be another hallmark year.
Yes, Liberty has to overcome the
loss of what coach Jackson Gillett
described as “three starters that
were all outstanding all-league
players.”
Brett Bafaro, a first team allstate outfielder in 2012, is now a
redshirt freshman on the University of Oregon football team. Alex
Rose was an honorable mention
all-state pick at catcher, and second baseman Nolan Selby earned
an honorable mention nod as a
utility player/designated hitter.
But six starters are back, including four members of the Falcons’
2012 pitching staff. Multifaceted
seniors Dakota Drake and Kevin
Lave are back after being named
to the NWOC second team as
pitchers last season. Drake was
also a first team infielder, and Lave
made the second team as a first
baseman.
“This year, our pitching should
