Chamber Gives Away $1000 Scholarship to SAS Student at May Luncheon
Article by Andy Nystrom, Bothell Reporter
 Brian Inch enjoys computers, history and woodworking. And knitting. The Bothell Secondary Academy for Success (SAS) senior learned to knit from his mom and grandmother and notes that he puts a ton of effort into that craft. If grades were awarded in knitting, he would probably be near the top of the class. "I rarely knit something for myself. I like to be able to make a gift for someone that they will treasure and cherish for many years," said Inch, who's currently knitting a sweater to donate to a local charity. Inch, 18 - who earned a $1,000 scholarship from the Greater Bothell Chamber of Commerce - graduate[ed] June 10 at the Northshore Performing Arts Center. Read more... |

June Workshops to Introduce Draft Shoreline Goals, Policies & Regulations
June 23 & 29
6:00 - 9:00 PM
 Join other residents and property owners to view and discuss Draft Goals, Policies, and Regulations that will govern uses, activities and development along the Sammamish River, North Creek and Swamp Creek. On June 23rd & 29th, the City will host two shoreline workshops. The purpose of the workshops is to introduce residents and property owners to draft Shoreline Master Program (SMP) Goals, Policies, and Regulations which will govern uses, activities, development, and construction occurring along the City's shorelines. What are Bothell's shorelines? They are the Sammamish River, North Creek, and, if annexed to the City, Swamp Creek, plus associated floodplains, wetlands and all lands within 200 feet of these water bodies. Whether people work along, live along, or use shorelines for recreation, economic development, or fishing, all citizens have a stake in the future of shoreline areas and the provisions which govern them.
