Starting in February, the group will begin serious outreach efforts — including visits by Flood Authority staff member Scott Boettcher to local town and county councils — as part of a strategic plan to get its $28-million portfolio of flood mitigation projects passed by the Legislature. During their visits, the group will present technical and financial details: small-scale flood mitigation projects that are completed or in the works; fish impacts studies; and funding requests and their associated purposes. They will also, during their visits, try to redefine their image as a group plagued by infighting, backstabbing and disorganization. "Over the last five years, a lot of the news about the work has not been positive," Flood Au- thority Facilitator Jim Kramer said during the group's regular monthly meeting Thursday. "I Lisa Broadt / [email protected] would suggest that our narra- Flood Authority members, from left, Merlin MacReynold, Ron Averill and Wes Cormier listen as Lionel Pinn, right, the Flood Authority member from Napavine, discusses tive story is about — there were his idea for the group's upcoming education and outreach eforts.

Pete Caster / [email protected] Brian Bedortha, left, watches as his son, Justin Bedortha, 22, holds a backpack given to him by Homeless Connect volunteers as he walks across the road near the Interstate 5 Harrison Avenue exit on Thursday morning in Centralia. Brian, 45, said he has been homeless for nearly seven months and said part of the cause was due to “a couple of bad marriages.” Justin, however, has been on the streets since around Thanksgiving, he said. He also noted that the lack of a job has forced him to be homeless. The backpacks given out by Homeless Connect contain soap, a wash cloth, deodorant and, most importantly, according to volunteer Chuck Mazingo, dry socks. Homeless Connect uses the backpacks as an incentive to get the homeless men and women to register with them as well as attend Thursday’s event at Yard Birds where they can receieve a number of diferent basic ammenties such as a warm meal, lu shots, a haircut and warm clothes. Homeless: Volunteers Connect With Homeless in Lewis County

Continued from the front The event connected homeless individuals with haircuts, lunch, check-ups for their pets and opportunities to apply for various local services and programs. Monzingo, along with about eight other volunteers, met up- stairs in Yard Birds at 7 a.m. Thursday with Lewis County Shelter Program Executive Di- rector Ruth Gutierrez. Gutierrez handed out the clipboards and backpacks with essentials such as soap and socks to give away to the homeless the volunteers would later find. “Approach like this is someone’s house,” Gutierrez remind- ed the volunteers before they left for the early-morning roundup.

THE VOLUNTEERS left in pairs of two and searched for homeless people in Riverside Park, the Centralia Amtrak train station, Twin Transit bus stops and other locations around the county.

Morton-White Pass hit its stride in the second half and rolled to a 51-31 win over Napavine, sealing at least half of a league championship here in a Friday night boys basketball contest. "It was a pretty ugly game," Timberwolf coach Tony Gillispie said, "but I can't be disappointed with a 20-point win on the road." Morton-White Pass led 5-4 after an initial 10 minutes in which the teams combined to shoot 3 of 28 (10.7 percent) from the floor. "We were right where we wanted to be," Tiger coach Rex Stanley said. "The uglier, the better, for us. I wish we could have taken just a little bit better care of the ball, and I felt like we could have had a lead." The Timberwolves, though, haven't kept their Central 2B League record spotless by missing shots and letting the opposition control the pace. Kylon Gillispie and Bryan Reynolds hit 3-pointers, and Zach Walton scored 8 straight for the Tim- berwolves to blow the lead out to 19-8 late in the second quarter. Walton, a 6-foot-3 sophomore, was inserted into the starting lineup in place of Rylon Kolb, out with the flu. "We started out kind of slow. We just didn't have our heads in it," Walton said.

Thursday’s 2A Boys Basketball College Basketball Huskies Looking to Bounce Back Against Red-Hot Oregon Team By Percy Allen The Seattle Times The calendar says it’s too early for the term “must-win” to be used for a college basketball game. However, the Washington Huskies sense a recent slippage in play that’s put their season on the brink. “It could go either way,” senior co-captain Abdul Gaddy said. “This is a critical point for us. But we’ve got to take it one game at a time. We can’t look ahead. That’s the main thing for us.” Washington (12-7, 4-2 Pac- 12) might not want to look ahead because of the daunting schedule, starting with Satur- day’s 4 p.m. game at No. 16 Or- egon. Next week the Huskies host sixth-ranked Arizona and the following week they travel to Los Angeles to face UCLA.

Onalaska’s 45-40 loss to Pe Ell on Thursday, put the Timber- wolves all alone in second place with two games left in the regular season. Morton-White Pass, Napavine and Onalaska had been knotted together with 10-3 league records going into Thurs- day’s slate of games. The Tim- berwolves were picked to finish sixth in the nine-team league in The Chronicle’s preseason coaches poll, a fact Allen was quick to point out afterwards. “We’re playing on house money now,” he said. “We’re ahead of anything anybody gave us credit for, including our fans, actually, and tonight was just a fabulous game by us.” Napavine had beaten the Timberwolves, 64-39, back on Dec. 21 in Morton, in no small part by holding MWP to 7 points in the first half. This time around, the T-Wolves led 29-19 at the intermission after going 13 of 23 from the field. “The first time we faced them, we definitely played four quarters of solid defense,” Tiger assistant coach Chante’ Evander said, “where this time, we ended up playing two quarters. Against good teams, we know we can’t do that.” Darian Atkinson, who Brandon Hansen / [email protected] led MWP with 19 points, hit Morton-White Pass’ Whitney Elledge tries to pass the ball to Ashley Kelley while Napavine’s Demi Sahlinger and Kalli Brown plays defense during Central 2B League girls a 3-pointer early in the third basketball action on Thursday night on the Tigers’ home court. quarter to push the Timber- wolves’ lead to 34-20.

MASTER GARDENER: Spend a Little Now, Save a Lot Later Gardening With Seeds

By Carrina Stanton For The Chronicle While MaryAnn Albenesius is used to getting seed catalogs in the mail every winter, she said she was surprised at the volume at which they came this year. “All of a sudden, these seed companies have figured out that people are interested in growing their own vegetables and they're happy to entice you,” she said. While local garden beds are still asleep for the winter, many local gardeners have already planned and started their summer vegetable gardens through seed catalogs. Albenesius, a Lewis County Master Gardener from Winlock, estimates she starts about 99 percent of her vegetable garden from seeds each year. Last growing season, her only plant start purchase was two celery plants because her own were slow to come on. She said she prefers seeds because a single starter plant at a nursery or big box store can cost the same amount as a packet of seeds, which can produce multiple plants. She said she also likes seeds for the ability to control the size of her plants, to plant in succession and also for the peace of mind in knowing where her food is coming from. “The seeds you grow yourself are healthier,” Albenesius said. “You know how they've been handled. They're just all around healthier.” Albenesius is one of several Master Pete Caster / [email protected] Gardeners who will be featured speak- MaryAnn Albenesius, a Lewis County Master Gar- ers at this year's spring installment of dener, shows of a plethora of seed catalogs at the WSU Lewis County Extension's her home in Winlock.
