ARLINGTON — Sonny Blankenship excels at 3D design at Weston High School, to the point that his teacher has lauded his virtual architecture skills.

“He’s a really talented animator,” Chris Hauk, who teaches animation and web design at Weston, told state Sen. Kirk Pearson and other visitors Oct. 9. “He built this really ominous haunted mansion for Halloween.”

Pearson, who laughingly acknowledged he’s a member of “the older generation,” admitted that he’s still surprised by how much potential there is in such fields.

“And these kids take to it in ways that even I’m not always familiar with,” Hauk said. “They’re digital natives.”

Blankenship was one of half a dozen students who served as guides for

the robot he’d been working on. “You can program it to follow light, sound or movement. It can chase flashlights if you want to. It’s not easy to program, though, because if there’s just one flaw, it won’t function.”

Pearson drew laughter again when he asked what the term “GUI” meant, saying, “I know it’s a stupid question,” before Blankenship told him, SEE WESTON, PAGE 2

MARYSVILLE – Jail Cmdr.

Wendy Wade doesn’t know how it happened. Well, she does know, she just has a hard time believing it.

The policies are all in place. Jail inmates are supposed to be counted four times a day, and when they are taken to and from different parts of the facility.

Still, an inmate escaped Sept.

22, and it wasn’t noticed until 44 hours later when his attorney came to see him.

An internal Vasquez investigation is continuing, but Wade said some changes already have been made.

Such as the door where Vasquez

escaped out of is now locked all the time.

Wade said she wants to make sure custody officers understand procedures so no interpretation is needed.

“It will take the guess work out of it,” Wade said, adding she wants to make sure they are trained correctly.

“The jail inmates need to be where they are supposed to be.”

“There’s a lot of misconceptions about this school, like students only come here if they’re in trouble,” fellow

Weston senior Samantha Frakes said. “But we actually don’t have any more problems than other high schools. Our staff is able to go much more one-onone with us, and everyone is super-encouraging. It’s the best school I’ve ever been to.”

Weston Principal Amie Verellen-Grubbs, who also serves as career and technical director for the school district as a whole, noted

that Weston serves up to 200 students a day, between regular-day attendees and those who take part in afterhours courses. She added that as many as 20 percent of the students come from outside the district.

Diane Kirchner-Scott, assistant superintendent of the district, prefaced the tour by arguing that reports of “failing schools” misrepresent the progress that Weston and other schools

had made.

“When the state received the waiver from No Child Left Behind, we went from Adequate Yearly Progress to Annual Measurable Objectives,” KirchnerScott said, elaborating that, instead of requiring 100 percent of students be at standard by 2014, it required schools to reduce the number of students not meeting those standards by half by 2017.

The state’s waiver was conditional, based on the Department of Education’s concerns about teacher and principal evaluations, and

by April of this year, it had been revoked, returning the state’s schools to federal accountability standards.

“No school district met that target,” Kirchner-Scott said. “But by the state accountability standards, we had made progress.”

Wade said Vasquez is known to law enforcement because he’s in and out of jail a lot so he may have known about the bible studies.

Vasquez then had to go downstairs to the first floor and walk out a back door where police cars are often parked. However, things were going just right for Vasquez as all of the officers working were out on patrol.

The 19-year-old was recaptured by police within days.

“We know who he is – he’s a frequent flyer for us,” Wade said, adding police interviewed people he knows.

“We were just a few steps behind him.”

Wade said police were determined to get him back into custody quickly.

“It was all hands on deck to get him back,” she said.

“There’s no way we were going to let this guy walk around.”

Vasquez was due to be transferred to Snohomish County Jail to be booked on first-degree robbery, in which he allegedly punched an acquaintance and stole his phone, wallet and other belongings.

Vasquez is being held on $200,000 for the robbery and $50,000 for the escape.

This is the first time in 25 years that anyone has ever escaped from the jail, although inmates have escaped from the hospital and even police cars. The jail has 57 beds that have a 90 percent occupancy rate.

Inmates arrested on misdemeanor charges are held for up to 90 days.

“This is a huge shock for us,” Wade said.

“There was no way we were going to let this guy walk around.”

Unemployed told to play up skills on resume

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Kim Nelson worked in retail for so long that she doubted she was qualified to work anywhere else.

Jack Shelton is already working in manufacturing and construction, but he’s looking to switch employers.

A n d C a r o l Wi l s o n wasn’t sure how to translate her years of working from home into an employable resume.

When they met with Kevin Logan of WorkSource Snohomish County in the Arlington City Council chambers Oct. 7, he had good news for all of them.

“A lot of your skills are transferrable and apply in other areas,” Logan said, before telling Nelson, “You say you’re only qualified for retail? I beg to differ. Even a position as a checker gives you experience in ordering,

stocking and customer service.”

Logan explained that even skills gained from personal experiences, such as volunteering and parenting, can be added to a resume.

This came as welcome news to Wilson, who’s held administrative roles in the past.

“I feel like my age is playing against me,” said Wilson, who has been the breadwinner since her husband Kevin Logan, was laid off Worksource a year and a half ago.

L o g a n acknowledged that some employers might be disinclined to hire folks with gray hair, but nonetheless asserted, “Most of them just want someone who can do the job, so all you need to do is effectively communicate to them that you have the skills that they need.”

Logan cited WorkSource’s success in re-employing as many as 6,000 people each quarter.

“You say you’re only qualified for retail. I beg to differ. Even a position as a checker gives you experience in ordering, stocking and customer service.”

Kevin Logan, left, of Worksource talks to Jack Shelton and Carol Wilson at a resume-writing workshop in Arlington.

While Shelton is already conversant with computers and internet searching, he had no idea there were so many employment resources available online.

“I’m just looking for something a little closer to home, with more of a chance for advancement,” said the lifelong Arlington native. “WorkSource has already helped me greatly.”

Because WorkSource’s nearest offices are in Everett,

WorkSource members such as Logan conduct outreach in communities including Arlington, to present employment workshops and make the organization’s resources available.

“The good news is that most of the people we meet already have the skills they need to get hired, because it’s a lot harder to get those skills than it is to get trained on how to write a resume or perform in a job interview,”

Logan said. “There are a lot of folks who are among the long-term unemployed, but also many who are underemployed.”

Logan elaborated on how transferrable certain skills are by touting even roles such as office duties for one’s church as valuable.

“Right there, you’ve got bookkeeping, light admin receptionist work experience, even though it’s not a paid job per se,” Logan said.

Man gets 9 years for child porn MARYSVILLE – A Marysville man found with 14,000 images and 1,700 videos of children being raped and abused on his computer has been sentenced to nine years in prison, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Seattle.

Todd Alan Ramey, 43, was caught after Homeland Security agents identified him using a foreign-based website that’s used to exchange violent images of child pornography, prosecutors say.

Ramey pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court to distributing child pornography in February, and on Sept. 29 was sentenced. He was ordered to

pay $12,000 in restitution to victims depicted in the photos and will be supervised for 15 years following his release.

In addition to the child pornography, Ramey distributed images of children with descriptions of how he planned to rape or molest them. He had been investigated previously in connection with sexual contact with a 14-year-old.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice.

Another common scenario Logan has faced are people who left their jobs to care for ailing loved ones.

“That actually gives you experience toward a job as an employable caregiver,” Logan said.

WorkSource’s next free workshops in Arlington will return to the council chambers at 100 E. Third St., at 11 a.m. on the Tuesdays of Oct. 14 and 21 to cover job interviews.

BRIEFS All City Food Drive on way

MARYSVILLE – Volunteers from several organizations will kick off the Marysville All City Food Drive from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 1, to help neighbors in need this holiday season by collecting donations of money, food and unused toys.

THE PUBLIC FORUM THE ARLINGTON TIMES.THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE

IN OUR VIEW Marysville’s jail escape embarrassing The Marysville Jail is not anywhere near as bad as the Snohomish County Jail, but an escape from the former recently still is embarrassing.

The county jail situation is ridiculous. It is one of the top places locally to commit suicide, 11 in the past few years.

Two just last month. It faces lawsuits because of its poor procedures for keeping inmates safe – especially from themselves. By comparison, the Marysville Jail is Fort Knox, with no previous escapes in 25 years. But it did get egg on its face when inmate Rhyan Vasquez escaped Sept. 22.

Vasquez, 19, who has since been recaptured, was set to be booked for suspicion of first-degree robbery. But he left the building after he, along with eight other inmates, was returning from a bible study class in a visitation area.

An internal investigation is continuing, but we can only guess that no one counted the inmates as they returned4 to their cells after the bible study class.

What makes this even more egregious is that no one noticed Vasquez was gone for two days. Jail policy says not only are inmates supposed to be counted when they are moved, but also four times each day in their cells. So someone wasn’t doing their job.

The jail serves Marysville, Arlington, Lake Stevens and the Tulalip Tribes. It has 57 beds, a common area, and inmates are housed in dorms and cubicle sections.

It must be a monotonous job counting prisoners four times a day. Probably 99.9 percent of the time 100 percent of the inmates are accounted for. But this .1 percent of the time is embarrassing. The department did a great job getting Vasquez back in jail, but this isn’t no harm no foul.

Jail officials vow this will never happen again. But we have to wonder how it was able to happen at all.

monthly (that’s just for the smallest bin of 36 gallons).

If we don’t pay this we will be “punished” according to MMC 4.02.040(3)(g) This punishment includes a firsttime fine of $150, a second fine of $300, and a third fine of $1,000 along with imprisonment for 90 days and charged with a misdemeanor.

In the five months I’ve been interacting with the utilities department, council members and planning commissioner, my objections were listened to, but either ignored or I was told, “We are not interested in changing the municipal codes,” “that’s just the way it is” and “there is no unique criteria that allows for you to be exempted from the service.”

Here are the ideas I offered to the City Council for their consideration: 1. Amend the code. Make a provision for our responsible citizens who self-govern their waste management that request in writing to be exempted from compulsory garbage pickup and its fees due to their preference of not needing, wanting or using their services.

2. Provide 10 or 20 gallon bins for monthly refuse at a minimal charge of $3-$5 (fees based on bin size) and use the city’s monthly recycling service.

3. Encourage increased use of the recycling bins purchased by the city with our tax dollars by offering a credit to those who faithfully use them just as their competitor, Waste Management, has for their elective users.

4. Encourage increased use of the recycling bins for yard waste management and food composting. When participates choose to use them they’ll receive a financial credit toward reduction and possible elimination of their garbage fee.

Are you interested in increasing the freedom and personal liberty of Marysville citizens along with reducing the impact of waste being thrown into our bulging landfills?

Please write our council members today. Ask them to find a solution that is mutually beneficial to each of us allowing us to continue to manage our waste without incurring a bill and finance charges or the threat of imprisonment for services not needed, wanted or used. You can find their information on the web site cityofmarysville.gov.

Thank you, Vonna Posey, Marysville

Donations help slide victims kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Oso resident Tim Ward was one of those hit hardest by the March 22 slide.

“He was just stepping out of the shower when the slide hit,” said Bob Dolhanyk, regional long-term recovery manager for the American Red Cross’ Snohomish County chapter.

Ward’s wife was killed, while Ward himself incurred injuries, including a crushed pelvis.

“The Red Cross assisted with his hospitalization, a wheelchair and some clothing. We’ve helped retrofit his daughter’s house with accommodations, such as hand-assists in the bathroom,” he added.

Victims like Ward are helped by the Red Cross, which recently received more than $35,000 to help those affected by the Oso slide from Papa Murphy’s Pizza.

Chuck Morrison, the Red Cross’ regional executive director, was presented with a check for $35,511 from Emily Thompson, division marketing manager for the 96 Papa Murphy’s locations in Western

BUS FROM Page 4 are declining as more buses become fully depreciated. If left unchecked, 10 years from now only 30 percent of our fleet will be current (12 or fewer years of age).

Based upon our maintenance records, the school district is spending a disproportionate share of its financial resources maintaining older school buses.

Buses 13 years and older cost 260 percent more to maintain per mile driven than our buses that are newer. Parts for our oldest buses are becoming increasingly more difficult to purchase. Several of our buses have engines that have not been manufactured in nearly 20 years. Like all things mechanical, school buses just wear out from continued use. Wooden flooring rots, paint fades, and engines and transmissions fail.

The third reason to maintain an up-to-date fleet is newer buses meet modern emissions standards. They are significantly cleaner burning and thus better for our environment. If you have ever been stopped behind an older school bus at an intersection, you have seen the soot that comes from the tailpipe when the bus accelerates.

The emissions of soot and

Bob Dolhanyk, Red Cross Washington, at the Arlington restaurant Oct. 8.

Morrison said the Red Cross offered four shelters and had one on standby right after the slide, and it gave transportation help for Darrington residents who saw their commutes to jobs in Arlington extended by more than two hours.

Dolhanyk said the Red Cross has worked with churches and family resource centers on both sides of the slide, along with roughly 30 other regional agencies, to enact measures ranging from emergency kits for Stillaguamish Valley residents to the systematic treatment of slide survivors’ mental and emotional health.

“We’re looking to make this available to all the family members and first responders,” Morrison said.

He also pledged assistance to food banks in Arlington and Darrington,

other harmful particulates and gases are dramatically reduced in newer buses. The Environmental Protection Agency states that, “More than half of today’s school buses have been in service for over a decade.

These older buses lack today’s pollution-control and safety features, and emit nearly twice as much

“since we understand that the food people gave in the wake of the slide might otherwise take away from what the food banks would receive during the holiday season.”

Not only will Papa Murphy’s donation help fund those programs, but it also will help the Red Cross offer counselors to grades K-8 in Darrington for the next two-plus years, in addition to bringing in peer counseling for firefighters and other first responders.

“We know they might not respond as well to professional counselors,” Morrison said.

Thompson said that Papa Murphy’s Western Washington restaurants raised the money through donation boxes and $2 from every pizza sold May 19.

“We also sent trailers from our Anacortes and Mukilteo stores to feed firefighters on the scene,” Thompson said. “Some of our employees even joined in the search-and-rescue efforts.”

Corinne Jennings, manager of the Arlington restaurant, said: “It just felt good to give back. A lot of the folks who were hit hardest were our customers.”

Health coach to buy Halloween candy from kids to send to troops ARLINGTON – A local health enthusiast wants to buy Halloween candy back from children and send it to troops overseas.

Weight loss coach Emily Countryman gives two reasons for this effort.

One simply is to show our troops how much we care about them. But the other is

because she wants to do her part to stop child obesity. “Every year we go to multiple Halloween parties, trick or treating on Halloween night and enjoy Hometown Halloween in downtown Arlington,� she said of herself and three children. “I love all of these activities, however, what I don’t love is the bags

rest is sent with her husband to work or tossed. “One out of three children are now overweight and an easy and fun way to prevent them from consuming the excessive amount of sugar is to engage them in the candy buyback program,� she said.

Kids will be paid $1 a pound. Countryman is hoping to bring in 500 pounds. “As an added bonus ... I am

sure the local teachers will appreciate the kids not eating so much candy at lunch time.� Countryman said she was assured by the organization Operation Gratitude that the candy would be wellreceived by the troops. “They are not each individually getting the massive amount each child here receives from trick-or treating events,� Countryman

said, adding that at the event she will encourage children who donate to write a special letter to the troops as well.

The buybacks will be at Ideal Wellness: Monday, 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. 20218 77th Ave. NE, Arlington; and at Smokey Point, 2730 172nd St. NE., Wednesday and Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Thursday from 2 to 7 p.m.

So, while she loves the events, the amount of candy is unnecessary for any child. “Being a health coach I know that sugar is the number one reason Americans are gaining weight at such a rapid rate, and I am doing my best to stop the cycle,� she said, adding she lets her kids keep 10 pieces each, and the

City gets tougher on panhandlers

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – The city wants to increase its legal arsenal for dealing with people and property that are nuisances.

At its work session Oct. 6, the City Council looked at a proposed new law that would make it illegal to solicit pedestrians or motorists on public property or streets after sunset or before sunrise.

Mayor Jon Nehring said Oct. 7 that the city, just like all communities, is seeing an increase in people on the sides of busy roads asking for money.

The law would make it illegal to solicit on off- or on-ramps to state highways and within 300 feet of major intersections, including on Highway 528, State Avenue and 172nd Street NE. It also would make it illegal so sell or give away items to people in vehicles.

The reason for the law is because coercive solicitation causes fear and intimidation upon citizens, and harms

tourism and businesses, the council agenda says. Also, solicitation at certain times and locations pose traffic and public safety risks.

“It’s unsafe, people darting in and out of traffic,” Nehring said, adding some business owners have contacted him about being threatened by some panhandlers. “There’s an increased risk of an accident,” especially as it gets darker.

As for nuisance properties, the agenda says: In Marysville, some owners allow their properties to be used for criminal purposes or in a manner that otherwise violates city codes.

In some cases, the property owners allow these crimes to occur repeatedly despite continued police and code enforcement efforts.

Such “Chronic Nuisance Properties” present serious health, safety, and welfare concerns and interfere with the quality of life, comfort, and solitude of other people residing in the neighborhood. The activities often result in numerous service

This intersection on 4th just off Interstate 5 used to always have panhandlers at the side of the road disrupting traffic. The city of Marysville is cracking down on such activity. calls to the police, fire and other city departments. The numerous service calls create a financial burden.

A new law would warn property owners that they are potentially civilly and criminally liable if chronic nuisance activities continue.

The warning would say that the property owner must take all steps to assist in abatement of the nuisance property, including pursuing eviction of the responsible persons.

As an example, it was mentioned that at one drug house police received six calls in 60 days. The new law would help police work with property owners, who would voluntarily comply and deal with the problem.

“In extreme circumstances where there is no desire to work with us then there could be fines or other measures,” the mayor said.

Bingo doesn’t hit the mark for local scholarships

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The second Dollars For Scholars Bingo Night at Presidents Elementary this year drew about the same number of players, but far fewer dollars than organizers had hoped.

The spring Bingo unfortunately coincided with the March 22 Oso slide, but it still drew more than 50 players and net proceeds of around $1,450, but the Oct. 4 event only netted roughly $900.

“That’s not very much, and we really need more,” said Arlington Dollars For Scholars President George Boulton, who reported that the group distributed $70,000 in scholarships last year, through donations from as many as 40 organizations.

Boulton explained that close to 60 local students received scholarships from the group.

The scholarships range from $500 to $2,500 each, and some students received more than one.

“We’ve got one new donor already,” Boulton said.

“It’s from a family whose daughter had received one of our scholarships.”

Boulton explained that scholarships often focus on specific majors, whether it’s education, business or music.

“The hospital staff has funded a scholarship for medical majors,” Boulton said.

“Our long-term goal is to be able to give renewable scholarships, that will last students as long as four years.”

Changes after jail escape MARYSVILLE – Jail Cmdr. Wendy Wade said changes are already being made at the Marysville Jail after an inmate escaped Sept. 22.

The policies are all in place for it not to have happened. Jail inmates are supposed to be counted four times a day, and when they are taken to and from different parts of the facility.

Still, an inmate escaped, and it wasn’t noticed until 44 hours later.

An internal investigation is continuing, but Wade said some changes already have been made. Such as the door where Vasquez escaped out of is now locked all the time.

Wade said she wants to make sure custody officers understand procedures so no interpretation is needed.

“It will take the guess work out of it,” Wade said, adding she wants to make sure they are trained correctly. “The jail inmates need to be where they are supposed to be.”

Paige Quander presents her proposal for converting waste water into energy to the Arlington School Board.

Students show creative projects to board ARLINGTON — The Arlington School District could save energy thanks to science, technology, engineering, art and math courses offered to Arlington and Weston high school students this summer.

Weston science teacher and program support specialist Cindy Christoferson explained that more than 30 students from both schools took part in the eight-day STEAM course, which was good for half a credit and took them on trips to a wind and solar farm in Ellensburg, the Rocky Reach Dam in Wenatchee and Outback Power in Arlington.

Many students then doubled up on their energy conservation project proposals, yielding nearly 20 projects between them.

While Sierra Baker weighed the benefits of installing geothermal HVAC systems in the schools, Ethan NavarreCantrell looked at the feasibility of the district using solar buses. Bryan Veary and Myranda Gregory proposed placing micro-hydro turbines in the gutter system, to capture rainwater and generate electricity, but Paige Quander’s proposal for hydro turbines in the lift stations received top honors from the teachers.

“She wanted to generate power utilizing our waste water,” Christoferson said. “Some of these proposals would

be very costly to put into practice, at least at first, but all of them afforded opportunities for students to research and design their own solutions to problems.”

Christoferson hopes to offer the STEAM course during the school year at Weston, as well as next summer.

“The kids absolutely loved it,” Christoferson said. “They said, ‘Oh, I wish school was like this all the time.’

Even our seniors, who are graduating this school year, asked if they could come back next summer. Some of them have even been turned onto career fields that they hadn’t considered. This made an impact on a lot of kids.”

in reading, 534-501 in math and 496-479 in writing.

Marysville had 226 students take the test, while Arlington had 151.

In the AP testing, 98 students took 163 tests and 101 received a passing grade of 3, 4 or 5. In Marysville, 154 students took 230 tests with 90 passing.

In the PSAT, 86 took the test for Arlington and 108 for Marysville. In reading, the Eagles outscored the Tomahawks 52.1 to 45.4; in math 52.1 to 46.9 and in writing 47.9 to 42.8.

More Washington students than ever are enrolling in college-level courses and taking college entrance exams, according to results released Oct. 7 by the College Board in Olympia.

Every racial subgroup saw increased SAT, PSAT and AP test-taking rates in 2014.

The state’s student performance remained relatively strong. SAT and PSAT saw a slight downturn in overall scores, but the number of AP scores of at least “3” — the score needed to earn college credit — increased 5.7 percent.

“I am proud of our student performance,” state Superintendent Randy Dorn said in a news release.

“And the fact that so many students are taking steps to prepare themselves for college is encouraging. I hope this trend continues.”

Locally, Arlington School District students outscored Marysville students in every category.

In the SATs, Arlington outpaced its rivals with mean scores of 527 to 499

M-P takes on Arlington after surprisingly easy win over MG

October 11, 2014

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Arlington takes on the current No. 1 Wesco North 3A team, Marysville-Pilchuck Friday, Oct. 17, at Quil Ceda stadium.

M-P has plowed through its first two conference games, taking down Stanwood and Marysville Getchell. Both teams have defeated MG, but M-P trounced the Chargers by a much-wider margin.

Arlington, on the other hand, defeated MG in a closer contest 27-21 and was bested by Oak Harbor 41-27 the week after.

The most definitive aspect of the Tomahawk’s offensive game is their rushing attack. Running backs Austin Joyner and Killian Page have compiled the majority of M-P’s yardage and touchdowns.

But Arlington counters with receivers Donavan Sellgren, Noah Andal and Connor Bovard having reeled in touchdowns from quarterback Andrew Kalahar.

M a r y s v i l l e - P i l c hu c k dominated Marysville Getchell Oct. 3 at the Berry Bowl 51-7.

Joyner started off M-P’s offensive game with a 62-yard touchdown and then returned a 67-yard punt for another score.

Page filled in for an injured Joyner, and rushed for 234 yards and found the end zone four times in the first half.

M-P’s Austin Joyner, 5, runs past MG defenders in last week’s game.

MG’s Devon Green scored the only points for the Chargers with a 5-yard run in the third quarter M-P played Everett Oct. 10 but results happened after press time.

Meanwhile, Arlington lost its last game against Oak Harbor 41-27 Oct. 3.

The Eagles were outscored in the first three quarters, but did have some success on defense with Benicio Madrigal returning a 48-yard fumble for a touchdown in the first quarter.

Andrew Kalahar connected with Noah Andal for an 11-yard touchdown in the second quarter.

Arlington was the only team to score in the fourth quarter with Kyler Smith running it in for a 9-yard touchdown, and Kalahar throwing a 12-yard pass to Andal for another one.

Arlington played Stanwood Oct. 10, but results were too late for deadline.

for touchdowns and yardage. MG played Oak Harbor Oct. 10, but results were too late for press time.

LAKEWOOD — The Cougars host Sultan Friday, Oct. 17.

Sultan is currently ranked at the bottom in the Wesco 1A standings, but the Turks can score in their passing game as demonstrated when Tanner Belcher connected with Kolton Anderson for a 48-yard touchdown in their last game against King’s Oct. 3. Lakewood played Cedar Park Christian in Juanita Oct. 10, but results were too late for deadline.

Lakewood topped Cedarcrest 50-20 with Blake Watts opening the Cougars offense with a touchdown pass and running it in for another score.

Audrey Frolich also hopes to play volleyball in college.

Eagle’s hitter hopes to lead team to state

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Senior, team captain and outside hitter Audrey Frolich, sees her role in motivating Arlington’s volleyball team in winning state.

She keeps her team energized by staying positive, she said.

“This year is going better,” she said. “We are all coming out here as a family.”

And with the Eagles’ new head coach Whitney Williams, Frolich believes that becoming state champions is possible.

“Williams is great too,” she said. “She has turned our entire program upsidedown.”

“We all believe in each other and have a new mind-

set,” she said.

So far Frolich and the Eagles have performed like a state-bound team.

In her last game, Frolich led her team with 14 kills and 17 digs to trounce Meadowdale 3-0.

As of Oct. 9, Arlington is third-ranked in the Wesco 3A and has only lost once.

“I think were doing great, we’re improving in every game and seeing what we can fix,” she said.

She wants to improve her game as well when she gets into college. Frolich wants to attend a smaller school like Central Washington and Saint Martins University for their volleyball programs.

“Personally, I’m trying to be better at defense,” she said.

Arlington shuts out Meadowdale

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Eagles shut out Meadowdale 3-0 Oct. 7 in girls soccer.

Olivia Larson scored two goals for Arlington and Bre Morren added one more.

“I thought our defense played great,” Arlington head coach Nathan Davis said. “They held Meadowdale to only one shot on goal in the second half.”

Arlington played Everett Oct. 9 but results were too late for press time.

Unlike its 5-0 loss earlier in the season to Murphy, Lakewood was tied with the rival school until a 72nd minute goal was scored by

the Wildcats.

“The first time we played Murphy, it was only the third game of the season and we were dealing with numerous injuries,” Lakewood head coach Steve Brown said. “We have steadily gotten healthy, begun to gel as

a team and improved our game over the past several weeks.”

Lakewood faced Kings Oct. 9, but results were too late for deadline.

Lakewood hosts Cedarcrest Tuesday, Oct. 14, and Cedar Park Thursday,

Lakewood VB loses

ARLINGTON — Arlington boys placed high at the Twilight Meet Oct. 4 at Cedarcrest Golf Course, running along with local schools Lakewood, Marysville-Pilchuck and host Marysville Getchell.

The Eagles placed sixth overall out of more than 10 teams in the 5-kilometer run with Nathan Beamer placing ninth with a time of 15:59.

The girls team placed 10th.

“Our boys and girls continue to see improvements on a weekly basis,” Arlington head coach Mike Shierk said.

“The boys are nipping at the heels of the Glacier Peak Grizzlies, who are ranked fifth in the state, and the girls are battling for one of the top three spots in WESCO/District 1, which will qualify them for the state tournament.”

The other local teams did not send the newspaper information on how their runners did.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood Cougars volleyball team fell to Archbishop Murphy 3-1 Oct. 7.

Game leaders included Lakewood’s Erin White, leading the team with 22 assists, and her teammate, Kate Anderson, leading with 12 kills.

On Oct. 9, Lakewood played King’s but those results occurred after press time.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Getchell topped MarysvillePilchuck in tennis 4-3 Oct. 8.

The Tomahawks beat the Chargers in singles 3-1, but MG won all three doubles matches to edge out the win.

MG found itself behind on the scorecard until Nolan Lechner and James Madamba won the No. 2 doubles 6-4 and 6-4, and Shawn Madamba and Nathan Snyder won the final doubles 6-2 and 6-2.

“We won the No. 1 singles, but

dropped 2-4,” MG head coach Andrew Christopher said. “That’s exactly how it played out last time, with the same two players at number one doubles for MG winning late to seal the deal.”

On Oct. 9, MG played Everett and M-P hosted Oak Harbor but the results occurred after press time.

M’ville schools website encourages community engagement

MARYSVILLE – In its continued efforts to increase public dialogue, the Marysville School District has a new website for Community Engagement.

The site is www.marysville.thoughtexchange.com.

The goals of the site are to build trust and transparency, to help people connect with schools, and to share information using technol-

ogy about district strengths and weaknesses.

“Collaborating and engaging with our public is more important now than ever,” Superintendent Becky Berg said. “We are accountable to the people we serve so their voice is vital.”

The district used moretraditional methods such as meetings, town hall gatherings and community cof-

fees to gather input on what Marysville wants from its schools last year. This year it is also including a moremodern approach, online, to not only gather information, but also report back to the community results from those surveys.

“In-person engagement is wonderful, but there is only so much human capacity to ask open-ended questions,

EVENT! Thurs., Nov. 6 4PM & 7PM HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS

meet with groups and gather people’s input,” Berg said.

A survey taken last summer provides a perfect example how more information can be gathered more quickly using online methods. In the survey, 2,062 people participated. The results are available on the new site.

If you go to the site, you can find out the results from the 23 schools in the district.

For example, one of the questions had to do with what needs to be done to improve the school? If you click on 10th Street School, the parents there by far say parent-teacher communica-

tion. But if you click on the Arts and Technology school, parents want discipline enforced.

Another question dealt with what is working well? If you click on Tulalip Heritage school, the parents say cultural lessons. At Cedarcrest Middle School, they like being able to check grades online.

The last question asks what else is needed at school? At Marysville Pilchuck parents say community-based learning and work experience while at Marysville Middle School they want more field trips.

Strengths • Our staff truly care for students • Staff collaborate around student learning • Teachers are committed to student success • Smaller classes and smaller schools = greater success Needs improvement • Improve communication between parents, teachers • Have a clear, consistent discipline system • Allow for greater diversity in learning needs

Homicide detective Marysville’s officer of the year

MARYSVILLE – Detective Craig Bartl was named Marysville Police Department Officer of the Year for heading a 2013 homicide case involving an 82-year-old man in an RV park that resulted in murder convictions of two criminals.

Bartl was one of several officers honored by the department recently.

Bartl, who joined the Marysville force in 2010, is also assigned to the SWAT team, collision investigation team, Child Abduction Response Team, panels for domestic violence and sex offender monitoring, and impaired-driving emphasis patrols.

“When we have a new project, Craig is the one who will step up and say, ‘Yeah, I’ll do it,’” Cmdr. Wendy Wade said.

Police Chief Rick Smith’s Meritorious Service Medal was presented to Crime Analyst Don Castanares. He was hired in 2008 to staff a new unit. He retired from the Army after 23 years as a Criminal Intelligence Analyst, and Senior Security and Intelligence Advisor. His affinity for numbers through data mining, crime mapping, statistics, and an ability to see patterns and trends has made his work a tactical and strategic access in crime-fighting, Smith said.

Among other awards: • Barbara Grady was named Custody Officer of the Year for her positive attitude

and going to extra lengths in the two years she has been there.

• Sgt. Rick Sparr, a 19-year veteran, was nominated Supervisor of the Year for his leadership and management skills, including the Field Training Officer program.

• Officer Jeremy Wood, 17 years on the force, received the SWAT recognition award for putting his life on the line and always knowing where he needs to be as a team member responding to high-pressure calls.

• Custody Officer Julie Swick-LaFave was presented a Certificate of Merit for measures that have kept costs down in the municipal jail where she has worked for more than 22 years.

• Program Specialist Ilia Heath was named Support Staff Employee of the Year for her vast knowledge of records and documents in the Record Division in the Public Safety Building where she has worked for almost six years.

A Certificate of Commendation collectively and individually was presented to Coordinator Ron Wagner and the Marysville Volunteer Program volunteers.

The volunteers’ duties include: performing security patrols around schools, business parking lots, parks, vacation house checks, event parking and security, fingerprinting children and providing crime prevention information.

League: Read pamphlet for details

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – The devil is in the details, and people may be misled by the ballot so they should read the voters pamphlet.

That was the overlying message of a League of Women Voters forum Oct. 7.

Michelle Valentine, a past Snohomish County president of the league, spoke about the five statewide issues on the Nov. 4 general election ballot. Voters should start receiving their mail-in forms as the county will begin sending them out Thursday, Oct. 16.

Most of the discussion centered on the two gun measures. Valentine explained that the league supports Initiative 594 but not I-591.

She explained that I-594 would close loopholes in law so that there would be background checks for people who want to buy weapons at gun shows and online. Such exchanges would have to go through a gun broker so the checks could be made.

Discussion of the 35 in attendance at the Marysville United Methodist Church on 64th Street showed people were on both sides of the issue.

Some said gun registration would only lead to gun confiscation, and that it wouldn’t stop criminals from getting guns. Others said it’s ridiculous not to have safety measures for guns; it’s like not having safety measures for traffic.

Still others said they have no problems with background checks, but anti-gun enthusiasts threw other things in that are unfair for people who just might want to help women learn to shoot at a gun range.

Arguments for 594 say: everyone will have the same background check so it’s fair; it reduces access to guns for criminals; and in states with background checks 38 percent fewer women and 39 percent fewer police are killed. Arguments against say: the transfer and loaning of guns to friends often would be illegal; criminals would still get guns; and it would create a database of gun owners that could be

hacked or misused.

Valentine explained that I-591 just repeats our Constitutional rights prohibiting government to confiscate guns so it’s unnecessary. It also prohibits background checks unless there is a national standard, but that should be a state decision, opponents say.

Valentine said 2.2 million gun sales have been blocked because of background checks, but this law would make it easier for criminals to get guns. It also was brought up that cities with the toughest gun laws have some of the highest murder rates in the nation.

The league hasn’t taken a position on Initiative 1351, but the forum discussion centered on the cost. I-1351 would provide funds to hire more personnel. Forum participants were concerned that those costs would be huge on top of a recent state Supreme Court ruling that says the legislature must pay for basic education.

For more information about the league go to lwv.snoho.org.

Michelle Valentines talks at a forum about statewide issues.

Ballots for Nov. 4 general election to be mailed out Oct. 16 Even though the general election deadline to vote isn’t until Nov. 4, Marysville and Arlington residents who are registered to vote will starting receiving their mail-in ballots sometime after Oct. 16.

Local residents will be voting on five statewide measures, one federal race, 10 various state races, 3 county races, four state Supreme Court races, a utility district race, and three various local measures.

Arlington has two local measures. One would charge taxpayers 49 cents per $1,000 valuation to buy 26 new buses for the school

district. On a $200,000 home, that would cost $98 for each of the two years of the levy.

Also in Arlington, the fire district is asking to continue its levy to pay for operations, at a cost of $1.50 per $1,000 valuation. That cost is $300 a year for a $200,000 home.

State measures include: Initiative 1351: The legislature would have to fund reduction in class size.

I-591: It would prohibit government from confiscating firearms.

I-594: It would require background checks to purchase firearms.

Also on the statewide ballot are two advisory votes, including: No. 8: Excise tax preferences for the marijuana industry.

No. 9: Excise tax for tribal properties.

The only federal race locals will choose is Rick Larsen - D against B.J. Guillot - R for Congress District 2.

State representative races include: District 10, Position 1: Norma Smith - R; Michael Scott - L. Position 2: Dave Hayes - R; Nick Petrish -D. District 38 senator: John McCoy - D, Craig

French - R. Rep. position 1: June Robinson - D, Jesse Anderson - R. Position 2: Elijah Olson - L, Mike Sells - D. District 39: Position 1: Dan Kristiansen - R. Position 2: Charles Jensen D, Elizabeth Scott - R. District 44 senator: Steve Hobbs - D, Jim Kellett R. Rep. position 1: Hans Dunshee - D, Rob Toyer - R. Position 2: Mark Harmsworth - R, Mike Wilson - D. In the county races, John Lovick - D faces Carolyn Eslick - R. For sheriff, it’s Ty Trenary against Jim Upton. And Mark Roe is

unopposed for prosecuting attorney.

For state Supreme Court, Mary Yu and Mary E. Fairhurst face no challengers, but Eddie Yoon is running against Charles

W. Johnson for Position 4 and for Position 7 Debra Stephens faces John Scannell.

In a Public Utility District contest, Dave Aldrich faces Bruce King.

425-312-5489 NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.

The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet.

Petting zoo, pumpkins, hay ride at Harvest Festival Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photos

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER

MARYSVILLE — While Makaila and Nathan Myers snuggled with bunnies in the petting zoo, Piper Staley painted a pumpkin and entire families rode the hay wagon through neighborhoods around the SchaeferShipman Funeral Home for the annual Harvest Festival Oct. 4.

“I’m painting it to look like Five Nights at Freddy’s” Piper said of her pumpkin, one of 185 painted that day and set out to dry by the funeral home’s fireplace.

“We live right around the corner, so we’ve been coming all five years that they’ve done this,” said Piper’s dad,

“We don’t want people to be afraid of the funeral home ...

It’s not a scary place, and the harvest festival lets us get to know you. “

The covered wagon hay rides were popular at the festival.

Aaron Staley. “My favorite part is just getting to watch the kids.”

Funeral home director Allen Ice estimated that the festival drew at least 300 attendees. Almost 70 hot dogs were cooked and

served for free.

Foster’s Produce of Arlington supplied miniature pumpkins for painting, corn stalks and hay for the petting zoo, which Ice deemed the most popular attraction.
