Tune in this Sunday and watch Dylan Davis play at PETCO Park

August 13th, 2010 at Fri, 13th, 2010 at 1:23 pm by Tim Watanabe

Hope everyone enjoyed this weeks’ feature on Dylan Davis getting selected for the AFLAC All-American High School Baseball Classic!

This is a great opportunity for him, and hopefully he’ll get a chance to shine on the mound and at the plate.

This was actually quite a hectic week for me here as our usual editor, Bill Christianson, was on vacation and I had to lay out the entire 24-page paper in his absence – hopefully nobody could tell the difference!  This was my 5th paper I’ve done completely myself in the over 2 years I’ve been here so it’s getting old hat for me :)

And I had bylines all over the paper too – if you’d like a change of pace read this story about a local costume-making business that creates animal mascot costumes, like sports mascots with a personal touch:

Anthropaws brings “furry” characters to life

And I also wrote a story on the First Friday Coffee Chats at the Redmond Senior Center, where presenters from the Redmond Historical Society talked about their organization:

Coffee Chat celebrates Redmond’s unique history

Never a dull moment here at the ol’ Reporter!

On that note, it’s almost time to start fall season previews!  Just a couple more weeks of filler stories and then it’ll be back to the gridiron, soccer field, swimming pool, volleyball court and cross-country trails (yep, lots of fall sports to follow!).  Enjoy the summer while it lasts!

Hi there! I graduated from the University of Washington in 2007 with a degree in Journalism and have been the sports writer for the Redmond Reporter since May of 2008. When I'm not covering the local high school sports scene I enjoy bowling, anything related to African lions, and performing as a lion mascot for community and charity events.
