Olympic Continued from page B-1 "We really feel like in Shelton ... there's not a lot of emphasis on how we're a diverse community," she said. "Let's celebrate that." Each advisory class had its own booth at the event, and they served samples of their food while classmates performed for par- ents as part of the entertainment section. Many different countries and ethnicities were represented at the event, including the Philippines, Egypt, Japan, Germany, Sweden, Mexico, Guatemala, Ireland, Spain and many more. The students, with help from their com- munity advisor and their advisory class teacher made all the food themselves. Rafael Lopez and Marissa Welles were part of a group that picked Germany as their country. "We did an evaluation of the class to see where we were from," Welles said. "We picked Germany ... and made German ap- ple cake." Most of the students involved seemed to be having a great time, and were proud of the projects they had created. "All the others are good ... but ours is unique," Lopez said. Some classes had to pick a random coun- try in an effort to represent as many diverse ethnicities as possible, like Erin Earsley and Samantha Stevens' group. "We found out what countries we were from, but ours were taken so we picked Sweden," Earsley said. While samples of all the students' cre- ations were available at their booths, the parent teacher student organization (PTSO) also provided bowls of chili at the door to make sure everyone got enough to eat. Although the program is only in its sec- ond year, Stevens said that it has been a huge success for the kids and the school. "They love it," she said. "We need to be a united community, not divided." Cookin' Continued from page B-1 "I love it, I'm addicted to it," she said. "This is when I discovered my passion in life, at 41 years old." Gunter said that anyone can do a ket- tlebell workout, and the gym offers class- es for every stage of fitness. "It can be a little intimidating, it's chal- lenging, but that's what's so great about kettlebells. You push yourself above and beyond what you think you can do," she said. Although she admitted that most days she lives on smoothies, Gunter shared this recipe for chicken wraps. Makes three to four wraps, depending on the size. ::: Chicken wraps 1 cup cooked chicken cut into small pieces 1/4 of a large apple, cored and chopped 1/3 cup grapes, quartered 1/3 cup walnuts, chopped 1/3 cup light mayonnaise salt and pepper to taste whole wheat wraps (although any flavor of wrap will work) Harstine Continued from page B-1 8134 or check them on line at www.habitatmasonwa. org. It seems amazing, but they have completed 18 homes in the county and are already starting on number 19 - how great is that. The second presentation in Harstine Island's Inquir- ing Minds series for 2011 is set for Sunday, Feb. 27 at 2 p.m. in the Community Hall. For those of you who enjoyed the first program by Harriet Baskas, they have a second that promises to be every bit as good.

His presentation will fea- ture historic buildings from across Washington State, as well as the people who occu- pied them. The doors of the hall will open at 1:30 p.m., so all are invited to come early, socialize and enjoy coffee and cookies with our speaker. Admission is free and the organizers look for- ward to having a large and enthusiastic crowd.
