The Northshore Schools Foundation Luncheon was a big hit!  While Jim Dever was not available after all, Andy Wappler and Dale Amundsen really helped in a pinch--and thank you to Claire Mortimore, the high school senior who brought down the house with her story of how she overcame her challenges in reading to become an AP student with the help of loving parents, dedicated teachers, her own self reliance and the support of the Foundation.

Thank you to many of the sponsors:

Living and working in the Pacific Northwest, I often hear questions about vitamin D, especially during the long dark winters. Vitamin D research has also been in the news recently. Here is some basic information about vitamin D, which hopefully will answer any questions you may have.

What is Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is an important vitamin that aids bone growth and development by regulating the absorption of calcium and phosphorus.

What are sources of Vitamin D?

Vitamin D is not found in many foods; therefore, milk is fortified with Vitamin D in the United States. Vitamin D is also synthesized in the skin after exposure to sunlight.

The visit to the Bothell campus was part of a college civics tour in which Reed is connecting with the state's youngest voters, who happen to be the age group with the lowest voter participation rate in Washington.

"It's important for students to realize their collective voice is powerful and that they need to exercise it through their ballot and through being involved," Reed said. "A key reason I do this tour is to remind students why their votes make a difference, and to encourage them to take part in their government and community."

Voters in the 18 to 24 age group remain by far the least engaged voting block in Washington, comprising only 5 percent of the population that took part in the 2010 General Election. The 65-and-over age group made up 24 percent of last November's voter turnout, followed by ages 55 to 64 (23 percent), ages 45 to 54 (21 percent), ages 35 to 44 (15 percent) and ages 25 to 34 (11 percent).
