A new program coming to Providence Centralia Hospital gives patients a chance to for- get about being poked, prodded, questioned or examined while looking into a pair of big, brown puppy dog eyes and petting soft, furry ears. “It’s a distraction,” said vol- unteer Wanda Buckner. “It’s all about being in the moment with the dog.” The Animal Assistance and Therapy program at Providence St. Peter Hospital in Olympia was founded in 1989. “Back when it was absolutely unheard of to bring a dog into a Natalie Johnson / hospital,” said program coordi- [email protected] nator Danni Sabia, who has been Volunteer Wanda Buckner, center, demonstrates how her dog Sophie can participate during physical therapy sessions with the help of speech therapist Lisa Prazak, left, involved in the program since and physical therapist Patty Dolezal, right. the 1990s. The program started with a six-month trial and has been go- ing strong ever since, she said. “When we walk onto a unit, you can feel the stress fall to the floor,” Sabia said, noting the calming effect the dogs have on staff as well as patients and their families. “It’s a really quick stress buster.” Expanding the program to Providence Centralia Hospital was the focus of last year’s Provi- dence Foundation Black and White Gala fundraising efforts, said Chris Thomas, senior com- munication manager for Provi- dence Health & Services, South- west Washington.

To some, it seemed humanity would not survive. However, once a week on NBC, thousands of people would tune it to watch stories from a future where humanity survives and thrives in the 24th century. “Star Trek was always a posi- tive image of the future where people use technology to bet- ter humanity,” Toledo resident Ethan Siegel said.

Continued from the front page Van Kirk, 57, of Centralia, served as the president of the now defunct Chehalis River Hound Club from 1991 to 1993 and acted as the club’s legislative liaison for six years. Back then, hunting big game with hound dogs was regulated but legal in Washington. At one point, there were 13 hound-hunting clubs in Washington. About 22 years after that old pastime was out- lawed, there are just two organi- zations remaining — The Olym- pic Tree Hound Association and the Washington State Hound Courtesy Photo Courtesy Photo Council.

Chronicle Facebook follower responds to post of “County Commissioners Consider Support for Senior Center Nutrition Program:”

However, likely not cheap. I would guess no less than $35,000 - $45,000. Further, a consultant must understand WA county government. A private sector consultant would pull their hair out trying to cope with the oddities of county government. Further, the amount of possible efficiencies are limited as a majority of county government falls under various elected officials. The amount of government that falls under the commissioners’ direct leadership is small compared to the whole. One final observation, moving 911 to another elected official, Sheriff, is just passing the buck and gives less control to the citizens.

West Survives Harsh, Beavers in 38-35 Win By Aaron VanTuyl [email protected] One quarterback threw the ball 43 times for 312 yards. The other ran for a whopping 279 yards. Football, though, is a curi- ous sport, and Friday’s District 4 crossover game came down to a slim senior in neon-pink cleats, a pair of timeouts and a huge serving of drama. And Cory Cory Davis Davis kicked W.F. West the Bearcats kicker right into the State 2A playoffs. Davis’ 26-yard field goal in an untimed down at the end of regu- lation wrapped up a wild 38-35 win over Woodland, propelling W.F. West into the state bracket for the fourth straight season. Davis trotted onto the field with 5 seconds left in the fourth quarter and the back-and-forth contest tied at 35. Woodland called a timeout, set its defense again, and called a second time- out, in an attempt to ice the kick- er on an already-frigid evening. MATT BAIDE / [email protected] please see BEARCATS, page S3 W.F. West’s Nole Wollan runs the ball on Friday night in Chehalis during a District 4 crossover game against Woodland.

Continued from Sports 1 The first kick was short — but a roughing-the-passer flag postponed overtime and moved the Bearcats 10 yards closer to the end zone. “I didn’t follow through on my form and kicking, and I looked up right away to see if it would go through,” Davis said of his first attempt. “I just didn’t keep my form, and that really told me to keep my form for the second one.” The second kick was just fine — in the eyes of everyone in a crimson and grey jersey that didn’t have Davis’ No. 9 on it. “When I missed that first one, but got hit, I was like, ‘Wow, that kind of sucks,’” he admit- ted. “And then when I made that second one, I was happy for the team, and for everybody else and the community — but for me, as a player, always trying to get better, I thought it was a bad kick.
