ARLINGTON — Arlington Police Detective Mike Phillips has served with the Arlington Police Department since December of 1997, and on March 18 he was officially recognized as the Arlington Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1561 Public Servant of the Year for North Snohomish County for 2012. Phillips, who’s worked in the Arlington Police Department’s Investigations Unit since January of 2010, received a plaque and a

check for $100 from VFW Post 1561 Cmdr. Willy Hughes and Public Safety Officer Bill Morse at the March 18 Arlington City Council meeting, after being selected from seven North Snohomish County nominees. Phillips thanked Hughes and Morse, the latter of whom Phillips has worked with due to Morse’s membership in the Arlington Police Department’s Volunteer Group, for the awardand cited his family’s history of military service while expressing his gratiSEE PHILLIPS, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — As of 1:30 p.m. on March 23, the day of its fourth annual “Paint the Town Purple” event, the Arlington Relay For Life had recruited 67 teams of 398 participants and raised $46,650 to support the American Cancer Society. “Paint the Town Purple” officially kicked off only a half-hour earlier in Legion Park where various Relay supporters were pitching their wares and looking to enlist more donors and walkers for the Relay itself, which will start June 22 at Arlington High School. Arlington Relay For Life Co-Chairs Kim Deisher-Allen and Jessica Angel expressed gratitude and relief for the clear, sunny skies that greeted visitors to downtown Arlington in time for them to “Paint the Town Purple,” and noted that this year’s Relay season already has a leg up on its predecessors.

“We’re already well ahead of where we were this time last year,” Angel said. “We’ve raised $782,000 over the course of the previous three years of Relays in Arlington, so our goals for this year are for 130 teams to raise $260,000.” While the Playa Bonita Mexican Restaurant and Hubb’s Pizza and Pasta offered “Purple Plate Specials” in honor of “Paint the Town Purple” all day long, Arlington Relay Sponsorship Chair Jan Schuette reflected on the day’s sad anniversary, since her niece, Jesse Kendall Schuette, died of brain cancer at the age of 14 on March 23, 1995. “Her passing impacted a lot of people,” said Jan Schuette, who captains “Jesse’s Team” for the

Arlington Relay For Life, and sells homemade caramels to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. “She garnered such a great group of people.” Jesse was diagnosed with brain stem cancer at the age of 8 in 1989 and was given two years to live, but she lasted six years instead, long enough to become a spokesperson for Seattle Children’s Hospital and be named the Washington State Young Philanthropist of the Year for 1994. Jan estimated that her caramel sales have generated between $1,300 to $1,900 each Christmas since Jesse’s passing 18 years ago. For more information on Schuette’s caramels, call her at 360-201-3527 or email her at hjschuette44@gmail. com. Like Jan Schuette and many other Relay participants, Bryony White got

I greatly appreciate the men and women of our armed forces. Teamwork on all levels is what makes our country strong, and keeps us safe both at home and

LWSD demonstrates technology in action

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District celebrated Lakewood High School’s 30th birthday on March 19 as part of their open house and technology expo which showcased state-ofthe-art learning tools while seeking to enlist the community’s support for future improvements. Amidst all the standard displays for school programs and departments, as well as community organizations that benefit students, the cafeteria of Lakewood High School was bustling with students and parents alike who wanted to test out technology that many students have already applied to their school lessons. Third-graders Angela McDonald and Arawyn Love used one of the multitude of laptops on the row of cafeteria tables to demonstrate to their dads how they’d gleaned new insights into a familiar favorite. “We used this program to make our own visual of Wilbur from Charlotte’s Web,” Angela

McDonald said. “It’s easier to work on computers than on paper, where you have to print everything out.” “What the program does is, it lets them take a character from the book and figure out how they can express his traits in a recognizable way,” said Steve McDonald, Angela’s father. “These girls have taught me how to use PowerPoint in ways that I didn’t know,” laughed Christian Love, Arawyn’s father. Fifth-grader Lennen Detrick tested out another laptop that was equipped with a skateboarding simulation that allowed her to change the angle of the skateboarder’s half-pipe ramp which sent him flying into the air if it wasn’t angled just right. “It makes it easier to learn geometry and physics,” Lennen Detrick said. “This level of technology is absolutely necessary for the classroom,” said Ron Detrick, Lennen’s father, who teaches algebra, science and physics at Lakewood Middle School. “The workforce they’ll be entering demands it.

They need to have as much exposure to technology as possible, to incorporate it into their problemsolving. Computer programs like these increase student engagement and ensure that they won’t be fearful of new technology.” Lakewood School District Superintendent Dr. Dennis Haddock added that part of the district’s focus on the future involves bringing its 30-year-old high school up to speed, in the wake of a previous bond issue which voters approved to fix the rest of the district’s facilities except for the high school. “The previous bond also included funding for partial planning and design work for the high school,” said school district facilities support consultant Fred Owyen. “Right now we’re doing site investigations for what would be a February 2014 bond which would be strictly focused on modernizing the high school and run through 2017.” Michael McGavock of McGranahan Architects, which has been retained by the Lakewood School District for the early design

work, touched upon some of the reasons why these upgrades are increasingly imperative. “We’re looking at building an addition to the current main building that will replace its existing satellite buildings, so that there will be one continuous building,” McGavock said. “We’ll also want more windowed classrooms. I’ve

never seen so many windowless classrooms, and that affects the classes that students can schedule because they can’t have more than three classes without windows. Security would also be improved through a single building because right now there’s all sorts of different doors through which people can enter.”

IN OUR VIEW

Community turns out to support Relay for Life

any of us have had, or know someone who has had, a family member, friend or co-worker who has battled cancer. It is a disease that impacts all segments of our communities. It doesn’t matter if you’re young or old, rich or poor, you’ve likely been impacted, either directly or indirectly, by the disease. So it was great to see how the community turned out to offer its support to Arlington’s ‘Paint the Town Purple’ on March 23. The annual event helps increase awareness, recruit participants and raise money for Arlington’s Relay for Life which supports the American Cancer Society. Arlington Relay for Life organizers say that in the first three years of the event, more than $780,000 has been raised. That is an impressive amount, made possible only by the efforts of the organizers and volunteers, as well as the outstanding generosity of the community. In addition to the ‘Paint the Town Purple’ event, the community was treated to an evening of family fun at the second annual Flashlight Easter Egg Hunt, which also raises funds for American Cancer Society. This year’s event raised nearly $2,500 which is significantly more than was raised in the event’s first year. Again, an impressive amount which

SCOTT FRANK MANAGING EDITOR reflects positively on all who were involved. Our thanks go out to all those involved in the ‘Paint the Town Purple’ event and the Flashlight Easter Egg Hunt, and we encourage others to follow their example and find a way to become involved in Relay for Life. There are many ways to get involved. You can participate, you can donate to a team, you can be a sponsor or you can volunteer. Whatever you choose to do, it will help in the fight against cancer. Watch for upcoming events, such as Arlington’s first Bark for Life slated for May 18 at Haller Middle School stadium, that will lead up to the June 22 Relay for Life event at Arlington High School.

Honoring Booth Gardner T he tributes to former Gov. Booth Gardner, who died March 15 at the age of 76, remind us of a better time. Throughout his political career, Booth was known for his respectful demeanor, good humor and dedication to consensus. That is in stark contrast to today’s reality. Now, partisan rancor is the norm in a high-stakes blood sport where the only goal is political advantage, and people with opposing views are assailed as enemies. This scorched earth mentality has become so pervasive, people assume it’s the nature of politics. But that’s true only if we continue to allow it. If the politicians and others who laud Booth Gardner genuinely want to honor him, we can do so by emulating him — by tempering our behavior and that of our colleagues. It is easy to praise a good man; it is much harder to be like him. I always considered Booth a friend, even though our friendship got off to a rough start. When he ran for governor in 1984, I was working for Crown Zellerbach, and we supported Gov. John Spellman (R) for re-election. When Booth won, he could have given us the cold shoulder. That didn’t happen. In fact, it was just the opposite. For Booth, the election was over, and it was time to govern. His first priority was always to do what was right. That commitment would be sorely tested in his first term. In 1986, my first year at the Association of Washington Business, the Legislature passed

GUEST OPINION

DON BRUNELL

a hotly debated and very divisive lawsuit reform bill. The measure was intended to curb lawsuit abuse to reduce the cost of liability insurance. It was supported by a coalition of business owners, local governments, schools, hospitals, doctors and insurance carriers. But it was vigorously opposed by trial lawyers — one of the Democratic Party’s most powerful constituencies. Key Democratic legislative leaders aggressively pressured Booth to veto the bill. Before making his decision, the governor met with supporters and opponents. When he asked me point blank why he should sign the bill, I said, “Governor, it is the right thing to do. We need to find a way to make liability insurance more affordable and available, and this bill does that!” After listening to all sides and stewing over the decision for days, he signed the bill, incurring the wrath of many in his party. But his decision wasn’t based on partisanship, it was based on what he thought was best for Washington. Booth’s quiet demeanor belied a strength of character that served him throughout his life. In 1995, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, a progressive and debilitating neurological disorder marked by tremors and loss of coordination. In true form, he

worked tirelessly to raise awareness of the disease, served as the first chair of the Northwest Parkinson’s Foundation and helped establish the Booth Gardner Parkinson’s Care Center in Kirkland. In 2005, Booth and I hit the road for a series of editorial boards in support of federal class action lawsuit reform. Even though he was beginning to feel the effects of Parkinson’s, I was amazed at his ability to captivate people with his arguments, logic and goodwill. With all the hard work, we managed to have fun. We both loved hamburgers, and Booth knew where the best hamburger places were — we tried them all. Looking back, I realize that this trip was like his swan song, a barnstorming tour of his beloved state. My fondest memories are of Booth’s humility and humor. The first time he called our house after becoming governor, one of our young children answered the phone and yelled, “Dad, there’s some guy named BOOF who wants to talk to you!” We had lots of laughs over that one. Even though Parkinson’s ultimately took Booth’s life, it can never erase his legacy as governor or the profound effect he had on those who knew him. If we truly want to honor Booth Gardner, we can be more respectful to those we disagree with and remember that our goal should be to work together to get things done. Don Brunell is the president of the Association of Washington Business.

‘Compost Days’ continue through April 15 in Marysville, as well as the Haggen stores at 3711 88th St. NE in Marysville and 20115 74th Ave. NE in Arlington. A map of Corey locations can be found online at www.compostdays.com. Those who find Corey will win coupons for free bags of compost and a

chance to participate in the “Big Dig” event, digging through a school bus-sized pile of compost for up to $1,000 in prizes, happening at the Lynnwood Fred Meyer on March 30 from noon to 4 p.m. “By having their food scraps and yard debris collected for composting, Puget Sound residents prevented more than 350,000 tons of organic material from being sent to the landfill last year,” said Tim Croll, solid waste director with Seattle Public Utilities. “That’s equivalent to eliminating a 100-mile-long train full of garbage from being sent to the landfill. Thanks to their efforts, we

are keeping gardens, yards and parks in our communities green and healthy.” Cedar Grove Composting will donate more than 60 yards of compost from the Lynnwood and other upcoming “Big Dig” events for community gardens, as part of their ongoing commitment to make generous compost donations to community gardens and organizations throughout the Puget Sound. “We’re so proud that our communities are at the forefront of composting,” said Candy Castellanos, public education and outreach manager for Waste Management. “When you put your food scraps,

food-soiled paper and yard waste in your food and yard waste carts, you make compost. Compost reduces water use and the need for chemical pesticides, while boosting the fertility and growing power of the soil in your yards, gardens and farms.” “With more plastic, paper, cardboard and aluminum being recycled by residents than ever before, food scraps and foodsoiled paper are the largest contributors to area landfills,” said Pat McLaughlin, director of the King County Solid Waste Division.

Arlington schools, AJAC tout STEM initiatives kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — School was out for students, but class was in session for the community at Arlington High School on Friday, March 22, as the Aerospace Joint Apprenticeship Committee covered how their programs dovetail with the Arlington School District’s Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics initiatives. ASD Superintendent Dr. Kristine McDuffy described the district as “excited to be partnering” with not only AJAC, but also the Workforce Development Council and Economic Alliance of Snohomish County, Everett Community College, the city of Arlington and local businesses “to ensure our students are aware of the multitude of opportunities in high demand STEM fields, and that they’ll have access to high-quality relevant instruction, and clear career and college pathways. This unique and powerful partnership will help build bridges for our students and a strong, competitive workforce.” AJAC Executive Director Laura Hopkins guided visitors to the AHS campus on a tour through the new metal shop housed in back of the building, and explained how AJAC launched its machining apprenticeship program in Arlington in January of this year, with an eye toward introducing its precision metal fabrication program this summer. “AJAC is excited to share with employers and public officials the steps we’ve taken to bring apprenticeship training to the Arlington area, and the opportunities employers now have to train their workforce,” Hopkins said. “Our partnership with the city and school district of Arlington allows us to bridge the gap between K-12 education and employment in the aerospace and manufacturing trades, and also gives us the opportunity to create the next generation of highly skilled workers.” Part of how AJAC accomplishes this aim, according to Hopkins, is by making local employers partners in the program, by demonstrating how their dona-

“It’s easy to recruit young people into these fields when they can actually see how these things are made.”

Laura Hopkins, AJAC Executive Director tions in support of handson state-of-the-art machines serves their own interests by furnishing them with employable and trainable high school graduates. “It’s easy to recruit young people into these fields when they can actually see how these things are made,” Hopkins said. “You’re changing this country from the bottom up every time you teach them.” Sid Logan, executive director of operations and facilities for the Arlington School District, acknowledged that what should have been a relatively brisk permitting process for the newer equipment has been delayed slightly due to it running off different voltage than the older machines, while Hopkins noted that AJAC is still in talks with the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction to work out how high school students might be able to get credits for apprenticeship programs. However, she touted apprenticeship programs as not only building skills among employees, but also breeding loyalty to their employers. “With the increase in Arlington’s aerospace and advance manufacturing sector, it’s imperative that we address the issues of a qualified work force to fill these increasing job opportunities,” said Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert, who also attended the March 22 open house. “Arlington’s public schools are addressing the demand for a higher STEM aptitude for students, and creating a pathway for them to succeed in the technical environment of the 21st century economy. A well-trained workforce is necessary to ensure the Arlington community remains globally competitive in this new economy.”

Eagles baseball tops Bearcats, 6-5 BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

Arlington’s Ryan Walker pitches during a Saturday, March 23, home game against the Monroe Bearcats.

ARLINGTON — The Eagles topped the Bearcats in a nail-biter on Saturday, March 23, in a Wesco 4A North matchup that ended with a 6-5 Eagle victory. Monroe and Arlington each scored a run in the first inning, tying them going into the second. The Bearcats used that opportunity to score four runs in the top of the second inning, and the Eagles could only return with one, giving Monroe a 5-2 lead going into the third. But that’s when things got interesting. The Eagles’ junior catcher, Josh Schempp, started to throw out Monroe players in their attempts to steal, while junior Bryce Human and junior pitcher Ryan Walker made base-hits, putting the pressure on the Bearcats. The team managed to keep Monroe scoreless for the rest of the game, while slowly putting up runs themselves. They scored two more runs in the third inning and one in the fifth, to tie the game at 5. It was Human’s line drive in the bottom of the seventh inning that allowed Walker, who was 2-for-4 with two doubles, to run in for the final run, bumping the Eagles up to the lead and ultimately victory. The Eagles’ record is now 1-0 in league and 2-1 overall. They are scheduled to face Mount Vernon at home at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 27.

Arlington falls to Lake Stevens, 3-0 BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKE STEVENS — The Eagles faced a tough team in fellow Wesco 4A North opponent Lake Stevens during a Friday, March 22, away game that ended in a 3-0 loss for Arlington. The Vikings scored their first goal in the first 21 minutes of the game and Arlington found it difficult to put up a score at all. The relative youth of the Eagles’ team compared to the Vikings may have aided in the Lake Stevens teams’ success. Lake Stevens boasts 14 seniors, four juniors and one freshman, while Arlington has four seniors and four juniors on the roster, and the rest are freshman and sophomores. The biggest issue facing the Eagles was the strength of a team that has played together for four years and can anticipate each other’s actions. Arlington will need to work on getting used to one another as a cohesive group and staying on the ball offensively. Lake Stevens’ Jonathon Perry, Grant Shultz and Drew Jacques each scored, with James Tanner assisting with the last two of them. Jon Erickson had an assist on the first. Right now Arlington’s league record is 0-2-1 and their overall record is 0-31. They are gearing up to face Mariner at home at 7 p.m. on Friday, March 29, in a non-league game.

Kent Prairie Carnival supports programs

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — While the totals are still being counted up, organizers of the 13th annual Kent Prairie Elementary PTA Kiddie Carnival on March 22 have estimated that its silent auction alone has raised at least $3,200. “That’d put it around the same number as last year, and about $1,000 more than the year prior,” said Stacie Wallace, who co-chaired the auction with Sarah Richardson. “We’re just thankful for all the support we received,” Richardson said. “There were very few places that actually turned us down when we put out the call for donated items to put up for bid. The school’s classrooms came up with between 25-30 gift baskets by themselves, and the community as a whole donated an additional 65 baskets for us to auction. Just about everyone we went to was willing to help.” Carnival Chair Kim Hahn explained that proceeds from the evening’s activities, as well as its sales

of food and beverages, will go toward PTA-sponsored projects such as new computers, field trips, guest speakers, teacher equipment and safety supplies, among other items. While Kent Prairie PTA President Kim Meno joined 191 other bidders in vying for the auction items, children such as firstgrader Brooklyn Helle and

Sebastian Baringer took aim at targets with Nerf crossbows to try and win prizes, and even eighth-graders such as Orion Webb, Abby Roscoe and Andrea Kutsch got into the fun with some rounds of miniature golf in the hallways. “I like being able to see my friends while we play games together,” said thirdgrader Aylana Nelson,

as she and her mom Liz enjoyed some pizza slices and sodas together in the same cafeteria that served as the site for the bouncy castles and the cake walk. “The troll bridge and the beanbag toss are my favorite games.” While this marked Aylana Nelson’s fourth carnival at Kent Prairie, Eagle Creek Elementary parent Sandy

Shelton and Presidents Elementary parent Virginia Muniz took part in their first Kent Prairie Kiddie Carnival that evening. “We should be home in our pajamas, but our kids have to win us some cake,” Muniz joked. “All of Arlington’s PTAs are connected,” Shelton said. “We learn from and support each other. It’s a

joy to be here, and I’d be willing to pay a lot more for the privilege.” “Anything like this that allows the community to get together is a good thing,” said Rob Pilgrim, who brought his daughters Kaelie and Demri, as well as their friend Lauren Warner. “This lets us support our schools and connect with each other.”

Tree planting benefits salmon, Puget Sound BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

Tracy Turner lays down protective burlap bags around one of several hundred seedlings that were planted along Allen Creek on March 23.

MARYSVILLE — Less than a dozen volunteers from the Adopt A Stream Foundation and the Bethlehem Lutheran Church managed to plant several hundred trees and shrubs along 900 feet of Allen Creek on March 23 in about half the time of the four-hour window that they’d set aside for that work, but according to members of both groups, plenty of work lies ahead for the area in the months and years to come. “Pacific Topsoil provided us with the animalfriendly mulch,” said Brooke Clement, an ecologist with Adopt A Stream. “It’s basically wood chips, since these plants don’t need any extra nutrients to thrive outdoors. This first time we were out here, we used about 15 cubic yards. This time, it was about 25.” “Allen Creek was once a very productive salmon stream,” Adopt A Stream Director Tom Murdoch said. “Unfortunately, over the years, a lot of the native stream-side vegetation that prevents soil erosion and

provides shade that keeps water temperatures cool has been replaced by lawns in residential areas and, in many agricultural areas, cattle and horses have been allowed to eat the riparian zone.” John Natterstad, a member of the Bethlehem Lutheran Church, explained that the Allen Creek area adjacent to the church had been left to the church by the families who had owned the property. “We want to keep it in its natural state,” said Natterstad, who recalled how stream restoration efforts had actually begun about a decade ago, but had been delayed by funding grants falling through in the meantime. “We’d really like it to serve as an environmental education site for children. We’ve already got an Eagle Scout project that plans to install a kiosk at the main gate, to show visitors what sorts of salmon and vegetation they can expect to see.” Thanks to support from the Washington State Department of Ecology, Adopt A Stream has been providing landowners next to Allen Creek with eco-

Last year, Adopt A Stream discovered that the riparian zone next to the Bethlehem Lutheran Church had been eaten by horses grazing next to the stream. With the assistance of the Snohomish Conservation District, Adopt A Stream and volunteers from the church installed a 900-foot-long fence to keep horses between 50-100 feet away from the creek, and

began to plant new streamside vegetation over four acres. March 23 saw them complete the planned restoration of the first two acres. “The more plants we have, the more it benefits both the fish and the stream,” said Walter Rung, the Adopt A Stream ecologist who supervised the day’s labors. “These waters empty out into Ebey Slough, the Qwuloolt Estuary and Puget Sound as a whole. Especially as the tide gates are removed, we expect to see a lot more salmon in this area within the next 10 years.”

Name: Norbert Animal ID: 19429788 Breed: Domestic Long Hair Age: 9 Years Gender: Male Color: Grey/Black Tabby Spayed/Neutered: Yes Norbert is a very talkative guy and would love to be a part of a family with another kitty. He would prefer either an adult-only home that is peaceful and refined, or one with cat-savey older children over the age of 12 years. Norbert doesn't seem to like large dogs, but small dogs may be OK - we don't know! He is a little shy of new people, but when he feels comfortable he will be a well mannered host.

Name: Stacey Animal ID: 19442331 Breed: Golden Labrador/Mix Age: 10 Years Gender: Male Color: Yellow/Gold Spayed/Neutered: Yes Stacey is an energetic older dog that has had some training. He is looking for people to love & care for him. He loves to go for walks & play ball. When he's not playing, he just wants to be in the house with his family. Labs make great hiking companions & enjoy spending time outdoors with their owners. There is no info on how Stacey does with other pets. Please visit him today.

All animals adopted from EAS are neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas. All cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.
