These Ladies Stride! by Gena Gullette, Issaquah Highlands Resident Stroller Strides has changed my life forever! I have lived in the Highlands for seven years and I am proud to say that I have been a member of the Issaquah/Sammamish Stroller Stride group for the last 4 years. The friendships and support I have received from this group of moms and kids is immeasurable. It is my motivation for getting out of the house each morning (rain or shine!) knowing I will be greeted by friendly faces and an incredible workout. We meet up with our kids in tow and explore the neighborhood, utilizing all the hills and parks that are unique to the Highlands. The workouts consist of cardio bursts, strength and endurance training and core work. The mothers in this group share a passion for healthy living for us, our family and our community. Throughout the workout there are opportunities for moms to talk about our lives and for our kids to socialize and play.

  • Taking Back Our Boulevard Tukwila Police Department Tukwila, Washington
    Taking Back our Boulevard Tukwila Police Department Tukwila, Washington Summary The City of Tukwila is centrally located in the heart of the Puget Sound Region of Washington State - a large, bustling, and prosperous metropolitan region. Although relatively small in geographical size (about 10 square miles) Tukwila’s unique location puts it at a crossroads of activity. The city has a small residential population, but large employment and commercial entities bring an influx of people into the city every day. Crime is a major problem for Tukwila. While the presence of a large commercial district and a high daytime population do inflate the crime statistics somewhat, these factors alone do not account for the disproportionately high crime rate. An analysis of all police case reports showed an elevated number of incidents occurred along a 1.5 mile section of Tukwila International Boulevard (TIB), a major thoroughfare near SeaTac Airport, and in the Central Business District (CBD), the primary location in the city for commercial activity. Looking specifically at violent criminal offenses, the TIB corridor had the highest concentration of activity. Page 1 of 25 Situated along TIB are nine motels. Several of these motels were suspected of being safe havens for persons engaged in prostitution, drug dealing, and the violent crimes associated with those activities. An examination of police case reports taken along the TIB corridor from 2008-2012 showed particular motels accounting for three of the top five problem locations. Interestingly, all three of these motel properties were adjacent to each other in a one-block area of TIB. In June of 2012, a detective from the Tukwila Police Department’s Anti-Crime Team (TAC) was assigned to a temporary task force created by the Federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF).
