Parks director Jim Ballew shows potential customers a possible dining experience at the Opera House. ing the facility. The open houses will continue on the first and third Wednesdays of each month.

Parks director Jim Ballew said at the Jan. 4 City Council meeting that the owner is still painting and doing repairs, but the work is scheduled to be done by Jan. 26. “There’s a lot to do,” he said.

Recreation coordinator Lauren Woodmansee said new carpeting, bathrooms and 240 theater chairs are part of the remodel, along with a performance stage.

“The goal of the city is to create vibrant, cultural arts,” she said, adding that with downtown revitalization, “It ties in with everything.”

She said the city hopes to

offer many cultural activities there, including: •Concerts, such as for wine and jazz, beer and blues, family and children.

•Classic movies.

•Business retreats and training.

•Speakers.

•Dances •Music and art classes.

As for renting it out, it

could be a venue for any special celebration.

Also at the council meeting, although not finalized, the city seems to be leaning toward awarding the Marysville Historical Society’s request for $50,000 to help finish off its new museum before the city’s 125th anniversary celebration March 19.

the best way to help police enforce a new law.

“It’s sad to take away something from the community,” he said.

Council Member Jeff Seibert said, “As long as we do it before the Fourth of July.”

“Amen,” Police Chief Rick Smith quickly replied.

If and when the council passes a ban, it won’t take effect for one year. That means there will still be fireworks this Fourth of July.

The council started discussing a few options to a ban until Smith spoke up.

“I’ve tried to remain objective on this to let the council decide,” he said.

“But with a partial ban we’d have the same issues. It would be difficult for us to do our jobs.”

He added that he personally likes fireworks, but at this point there is clear direction that citizens favor a ban. An advisory vote on the November ballot favored a ban at almost 60 percent among about 10,000 voters. Previously, a fireworks committee came up with no recommendation and an online survey of about 1,000 people placed a ban in the slight minority.

Smith said history in other communities shows that it takes time to get complete compliance on a fire-

works ban. “It takes three or four years for the citizens to get it,” he said.

So the council discussed progressive fines for noncompliance for the first three years the law would be in place, starting in 2017.

“The first year we should be more lenient,” Council Member Stephen Muller said.

Smith said police have been handing out $100 tickets, rather than the $500 allowed by law, to lawbreakers. They were the ones who shot off illegal fireworks off a reservation or who discharged them on days or hours not allowed by law.

City Attorney Jon Walker,

who came up with a draft law that included a blanket ban, said the fire marshal still would have the power to allow permits for community public fireworks displays, such as for the Marysville Strawberry Festival.

Smith said Boom City on the nearby Tulalip reservation will still be a piece in fireworks enforcement.

“We can’t eliminate Boom City for sure,” Mayor Jon Nehring said, adding many people come to this area on July 4 because fireworks already have been banned in their communities.

Vol. 122, No. 26

MARYSVILLE – Although no final vote was taken, a majority of the Marysville City Council is leaning toward banning fireworks.

At a work session Jan. 4, the council talked mostly about how much to fine people who continue shooting off fireworks once a law is passed.

Only council president Jeff Vaughan seemed reluctant to approve a ban. “I’m not ready to move on it yet.”

Council Member Michael Stevens showed remorse at the idea, but agreed a ban is

State of the State Avenue?

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – State Avenue is not the prettiest street, and the city wants to know if residents want to do anything about that.

It is developing a State Avenue plan to provide guidelines that will improve the image, character, utilization and quality-of-life along the street as development occurs.

When Dave Koenig was hired as a city planner a few months ago, he was assigned to make a State Avenue plan.

“Marysville is interested in what its image is,” he said.

He said there is a plan for downtown already taking shape and trails will be added.

A plan also is underway in the Lakewood area. This plan deals with the connecting road over time.

Koenig said the city has used its social network

and already received 75 responses online in a week.

Residents can get a hard copy of the survey by calling 360-383-8100.

Koenig already has started working with Community Transit, which wants to put its Swift transit service there. “It’s quickerthan-normal bus service,” Koenig said. Stops are farther apart and tickets are purchased before boarding so trips are much faster.

Mayor Jon Nehring said development on State Avenue now is a hodgepodge.

“We want to plan it better, and fill it out where we can,” he said.

In developing the plan, the city is interested in feedback from residents, business owners, customers, drivers, visitors and other stakeholders interested in the corridor.

The city asks people to take the following survey on the future of State Avenue:

Steve Powell/Staff Photo

The city of Marysville is asking for public input on what it would like State Avenue to look like.

•What do you like most about State Avenue and why?

•In what specific areas of State Avenue could you envision mixed-use centers working? Mixed-use refers to a mix of housing, retail, offices and amenities.

•What changes do you think would make it more

MSD talks about special education

By STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – “Special education is a service, not a place.” James Stevens emphasized the state motto when giving an update on special education in the Marysville School District Jan. 4.

Stevens, executive director, said one goal of special education is “to get students on their feet before they are on their own.” To do that, the district has to “get kids in the right place, in the least-restrictive environment possible.” The special ed resource room needs to be flexible and fluid, he said.

“There are tweeners; they don’t fall into columns,” Stevens said, adding 50 special ed students have been taken out of self-contained environments this year.

What they’re doing seems to be working. The gap has improved in local special ed scores compared with the state. In other school board news: •Technology director Scott Beebe said the district is thinking of allowing students to take their Chromebooks home for the summer. He said many parents and their students love the device, and they

have been taken all over the world during winter break.

He also wonders how and where they would be stored.

Of the thousands of them at the high school and middle school, the breakage rate is about 1 percent. Twenty have been stolen, but seven were recovered.

•Principal Gloria Henderson and her staff gave a report on Liberty Elementary. She told the school board about strong leadership, from teachers to parents to the students themselves. “They bring tears to our eyes they are that good,” Henderson said of the student leadership team.

The school has a data wall with all of the students pictures on it, so all of the teachers and substitutes can see what type of differentiated instruction each student needs.

The school also is reducing disciplinary problems by teaching students social skills in a positive way.

They identified 66 students who needed the most help, and that focus has led to changes in them. Monthly, the school has “Gab with Gloria” conversational meetings with Henderson and also instructional

3

events like “Math Night” where parents learn what is being taught.

•Principal Janelle McFalls and her staff at Allen Creek Elementary also gave a report. She said they were “shocked” when they found out they had fallen below state standards because historically they have scored higher. “We took just a minute to feel sorry for ourselves,” and then re-focused, McFalls said. They are looking more at data and using interventions to help students improve in areas they are weak in.

The school also is focusing on getting kids there and keeping them there.

The goal is to cut absences by 25 percent. Students work in small groups until they understand a state standard, and don’t move on until they do. They also hope to reduce suspensions 25 percent.

When a problem develops, “we use it as a teaching moment,” McFalls said, adding some students are given jobs to get them responsibilities in school.

“If they go home that’s not solving the problem.”

•Pete Lundberg and Tom Albright were sworn in as directors.

attractive to live along or near State Avenue?

•Where do you see opportunities for recreation along State Avenue? Recreation could include small parks, open space, trails, etc.

•Should Marysville improve opportunities for transit and pedestrians along State Avenue? Please explain.

•What commercial corridors in other cities do you like, and why do you like them? Please provide examples. e.g. I like Anytown, WA, because it has a variety of shopping opportunities and is easy to walk.

•Which of the following statements best describes your opinion of how the State Avenue corridor

functions? Select only one.

Regional arterial for vehicular traffic, a neighborhood with a sense of community, the ‘main street’ for south Marysville, a cohesive business district, a regional commercial corridor.

•What other comments do you have as we begin to look at the future of State Avenue?

Arlington swears in its council members, mayor

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The first Arlington City Council meeting of the New Year was also one of its briefest, as city attorney Steve Peiffle swore in two incumbent and two first-term elected officials Jan. 4.

Barbara Tolbert was sworn into her second term as mayor, after receiving 53 percent of the vote against challenger Craig Christianson in November.

Marilyn Oertle was sworn into her fifth term on the council, after receiving 69 percent of the vote against challenger Natalie Reed. Oertle, who occupies the Position 5 seat, began serving on the council in 2000, and has served two non-consecutive stints as Mayor Pro Tem. The next most-senior member of the council is Chris Raezer, in the Position 2 seat, who began serving in 2006, and whose current term is set to expire at the start of 2018.

Sue Weiss and Mike Hopson were sworn into

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

Mayor Barbara Tolbert takes the oath of office. their first terms in Positions 4 and 6, respectively, which won’t expire until the start of 2020.

Weiss edged out firstterm incumbent Randy Tendering with just under 51 percent of the vote, while Hopson won a three-way race with a commanding 63 percent against challenger Jacob Kukuk and incumbent Austin DeFreece III, the latter of whom was appointed to the seat a few

months before and ran as a write-in candidate.

While Weiss had no comments to offer during her first council meeting — “Your assignments are coming, so don’t worry,” Tolbert laughed — Hopson expressed his appreciation.

“It’s a great honor,” Hopson said.

“The citizens elected me to serve the community’s good, so I will make every effort to do so.”

THE PUBLIC FORUM THE ARLINGTON TIMES.THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE

IN OUR VIEW

Fireworks ban not only option Why does it have to be all or nothing?

The Marysville City Council is looking at banning fireworks. But a ban is not the only option.

The city could further limit the hours fireworks are shot off, say from 6 p.m. to midnight July 4. Shooting them off before and after the Fourth is what many people don’t like. The solution is to fine violators; don’t just let them off with a warning.

Another possibility is a ban of only the most-terrifying fireworks. Those are the ones that scare pets and veterans, and the ones that can cause injuries or fires.

One of our state codes lists 15 fireworks manufactured in accordance with the American Pyrotechnics Association standards. The council could approve the use of those, or restrict any of them that might be confused with an illegal firework.

The city law also could state that police don’t have to witness the violation, only have evidence of it, just like many other criminal situations. That would help make the law enforceable.

We have researched cities that have only partial bans of fireworks, such as Auburn. Its law is simple and easy to enforce. If a firework goes into the air, it’s a violation. Or if it makes a loud enough bang that neighbors complain, it’s a violation.

Sure, that would not be as thrilling as the fireworks we have now, but it is better than having no fireworks. Fireworks manufacturers eventually would come up with better options for ground fireworks if those were the only ones allowed.

The city also could try to come up with a site, similar to Boom City in Tulalip, where people could take their fireworks to shoot them off. An open area with a fire truck nearby could work.

There also could be the possibility of a community display instead of personal fireworks.

Many of these ideas have been discussed and would be preferable to an outright ban. July 4 is all about celebrating our freedom as a country. To diminish that celebration for no overwhelming reason is wrong.

Facts don’t back up some of the community’s fears.

Last summer Marysville residents were very responsible with fireworks. Because of extreme dry weather, there was a real concern about fireworks causing fires. But damage was minimal. In fact, property damage and costs are minimal most years.

This community is split on fireworks. The number of people who shoot them off July 4, after Seahawk wins and on New Year’s prove that. A survey the city did online was split almost down the middle, with a slight advantage to not banning fireworks. A city committee also looked into the issue and was split.

The only survey approving a fireworks ban was during the November election. It was supposed to be an “advisory” vote only, and 59.25 percent of participants favor a ban. But 4,077 people voted against a ban.

Obviously, that is a majority, and the council must respond. But as a government body it needs to respect what the entire community wants. And with such a divisive issue it should think out of the box on a way to respect each side.

Some type of moderation is needed in a decision.

Not doing anything isn’t the answer, but neither is a total ban.

January 9, 2016

M’ville has lots ahead for 2016 Safer pedestrian routes, a new waterfront trail, more school resource officers and a big birthday celebration: These are just a few of the many positive changes Marysville can expect in 2016.

We’re building on our great successes in 2015, and I’m excited to share with you some of the projects we’re looking forward to this year.

I ’ v e talked in the past about the five major projects funded by Nehring last year’s S t a t e Transportation Package – including work on a full I-5/ SR 529 interchange that will begin in the next couple of years.

These are long-awaited projects that will make a big difference to how we’re able to commute into and around Marysville.

But those aren’t the only important transportation projects we’re looking forward to.

Next year, we’ll start construction on $750,000 in grant-funded projects.

As part of the Safe Routes to School program, we’ll be able to widen shoulders and build full sidewalks on

116th Street near Marshall Elementary and along Sunnyside Boulevard near Sunnyside Elementary.

These projects will give our schoolchildren – and local pedestrians – the ability to travel more safely to and from school.

We’ll also be able to build out full sidewalks on Grove Street between State and Cedar avenues, so pedestrians and cyclists can more-easily access the Community Transit Park and Ride location on the corner of Cedar and Grove.

This also builds out our network of sidewalks and allows us better connectivity to pedestrian routes west of State Avenue.

Speaking of pedestrian routes – we’re also looking forward to the completion of the highly anticipated Ebey Waterfront Trail.

Last year, we celebrated the breaching of the Ebey Slough dikes as part of the Qwuloolt restoration project .

Tthis year, we’re excited to expand our trail system

so nature-lovers can get a close-up look at the estuary.

We’ll complete a 1.8mile paved walkway from Ebey Waterfront Park east along the banks of the Ebey Slough, with interpretive areas and lookouts over the estuary.

Continuing our emphasis on public safety, we’re looking forward to the expansion of our School Resource Officer program throughout Marysville schools.

In October, we received $375,000 in federal funding to add more officers to our existing program and develop a dedicated Youth Services Unit.

We know that officers assigned to our schools are much more than just a uniformed presence: They are also counselors, mentors and coaches to the students with whom they work every day.

Dedicating additional resources to this valuable program means more opportunity for relationship-building between our students, our community

Letter to the editor Yes, a problem

To answer the question in The Arlington’s Times Dec. 20 editorial: Is there a problem? Yes. Arlington Firefighters, IAFF Local 3728 did send a letter to the City Council, mayor and public safety director just prior to the Nov. 3 election. The letter was not sent to The Arlington Times and was not politically motivated in any way, as our public safety director would suggest.

He did not take the time to address any part of the letter with myself or the

Local’s executive board.

We did not send the letter to any media outlets in order to make sure there was no political motivation or implications behind it.

We felt, and continue to feel, that there are several critical issues within the fire department that need to be addressed.

The Arlington Fire Department has not seen an increase in staffing since 2009 when the city of Arlington took over service to the Smokey Point area.

Each time you see a badge SEE LETTER, PAGE 5

and our police officers.

Finally, 2016 marks a milestone birthday for the city of Marysville.

This March, our city officially turns 125 – and we plan to celebrate.

We hope you’ll join us March 19-20 at Ebey Waterfront Park and the Marysville Opera House as we toast the great accomplishments of our past and look forward to the future.

I look forward to sharing more about what 2016 will bring as I present my annual State of the City address on Jan. 29 at the MarysvilleTulalip Chamber of Commerce Business Before Hours breakfast.

The event runs from 7-9 a.m. at the Tulalip Hotel conference center.

Those who aren’t able to attend can view it online in early February at www. m ar y s v i l l e w a . gov / 5 7 3 / Annual-State-of-the-CityAddress.

pinning at a council meeting it is simply pinning a badge onto a new hire that is replacing a member that has left the Arlington Fire Department to continue their career at a different fire department.

Six members (25 percent of the workforce) have left Arlington over the past two years with several more set to leave in 2016. The medical services administer position was eliminated at the beginning of 2015, leaving no direct oversight within the Emergency Medical Services division.

The Arlington Fire Department will run around 4,800 calls for service this year, with nearly 85 percent of those being EMS related.

Call volume has increased over 40 percent in the last six years, with no increase in staffing.

Historically we have conducted all fire and life safety inspections, tested hose

and a multitude of other tasks. Those tasks have suffered, so to say that the public’s service has decreased is absolutely true. We are stretched thin, and overall safety is suffering because of that.

Our intention was never to make any of this public, rather to inform the council and mayor of our point of view in order to raise awareness to the ongoing issues.

We are happy to work with the city in order to make the fire department safe, effective and to limit liability. We appreciate the support of the council, mayor and the public. The citizens of Arlington have overwhelmingly supported the fire department for years, and we truly appreciate that support. Our only motivation is to ensure that the citizens have a topnotch fire department that provides the highest level of fire and EMS to the citizens of Arlington.

Colleges should help students more with funding College is expensive and becoming more so every year. Ray Franke at the University of Massachusetts Boston stated that “if you look at the long-term trend, [college tuition] has been rising almost six percent above the rate of inflation.” To pay these rising tuition prices, more than two-thirds of students assume some form of loans, primarily federal. As of now, Americans collectively owe over $1.36 trillion in student debt. These facts should prompt us to find a solution to reducing the amount of debt that future college students take on to help combat the inevitable snowballing of this crisis.

The Obama administration has recently implemented programs to help graduates with existing student debt, but more can be done to avoid incoming freshman from graduating with the average $35,000 of debt that each undergraduate in the class of 2015 owes.

ROOFING

To address the magnitude of college debt for current and future students, let’s hold our colleges responsible. Yes, one solution lies within the institutions Cenname t h e m selves: colleges should dedicate more of their endowment funds to offset the rising cost of tuition. Approximately 70 percent of students use government loans to pay for college.

To effect a change in the use of endowments, one first needs to understand their purposes. In most basic terms, an endowment is the sum of interest-bearing money collected over the years of the institution’s existence. Individuals who give to the institution may restrict the use of their

donation, but many contributions are given for the general purpose of propelling the institution forward.

The latter may be utilized as the institution desires such as for building reconstruction, paying faculty and staff, and offering students financial aid, as well as for saving and investing money for future uses.

So which schools should do more? This is a question that should be thoughtfully answered by each institution. For colleges with the largest endowments, I’d hope that the answer would come more easily. An October 2015 US News & World Report article noted that 10 schools have endowments of more than $8 billion, with Harvard topping the list at $36 billion. It’s more understandable that small institutions with more modest endowments, such as that of Southern Virginia University with its endowment of $574,000, cannot

offer an increase in tuition assistance to current students as easily through the spending of their endowments. Even still, the median college endowment is $90 million, revealing that majority of colleges in America can afford to do more than they currently do.

Thus universities with bigger endowments should apply more of their funds towards relieving student debt in the form of grants and tuition assistance rather than enhancing their own prestige or financing projects that already are well endowed. The cost of college and the impact of student debt have become a social crisis in America today. Let’s demand colleges to be more accountable to help to address this crisis.

Arlington students learn to ward off computer hackers kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — “We’re not hackers,” said Richard Pugh, a cadet in Arlington High School’s Air Force Junior ROTC. “We’re the exact opposite.”

The cadets are getting a hands-on education in safeguarding computers through the national CyberPatriot competition.

Teams are allowed five members, plus one alternate, each round consists of timed tests, lasting six hours, of checking for viruses and other errors on a variety of computer operating systems. The Air Force server grades the students’ performance in real time, telling them how many problems they have left, but leaving it to the students to figure out what types of viruses they might be.

“They’re working on systems from Windows XP and Vista on up,” said John Pugh, Richard’s father, a Microsoft employee who serves as an advisor. “Because it’s not telling them what vulnerabilities they’ve missed correcting, they really have to know what they’re looking for.”

Maj. Mike Blue, senior aerospace science instructor, added: “Their families bring in snacks to keep them fueled up, though.”

The Arlington cadets have found that they work more efficiently by subdividing into even smaller numbers. By pairing off, they can work two problems at a time, and avoid having “too many cooks in the kitchen,” which Blue admitted was an issue when all five were working in the same room.

As for what drew the Arlington cadets to the CyberPatriot program, they see a combination of career prospects and larger societal benefits to the lessons they’re learning.

Pugh and fellow cadet Thomas Strine cited the possibility of high-end Information Technology jobs with firms such as

Richard D. Oril April 29, 1932 — November 12, 2015

Dick Oril, 83, went home to be with his Lord and Savior, November 12, 2015, after a long journey with alzheimers.

Dick grew up in Marysville, WA and moved to Kingston Cove in 1985. He was the owner of Budget Furniture for 36 years in Everett, WA. Dick was an artist, pianist, singer, woodworker and made about 340 of his Buccaroo Trucks. Dick had a great sense of humor, and had a kind, caring heart. He loved God, travel and helping many people over the years.

Dick was preceded in death by his wife of 46 years, Joy Cooper Oril.

He is survived by his two

children, Jennifer OrilMeier and Thomas Oril, both of Kingston, WA, and three grandchildren.

He is survived by his wife, Grace Oril of Sequim, WA and step-daughters, Julie Faatiliga and Renee Scarpino, 5 stepgrandchildren and 1 great step-grandson.

Dick was the youngest of the five children and preceded in death by his two brothers, Ken Oril and Robert Oril, and two sisters, Kay Oril Kline and Rose Oril Verley. There is a rich history of the Crowells and Orils that goes back many, many years in Marysville.

Florence Crowell Oril, his mother, was in the first graduating class of Marysville High School in the early 1900’s.

A celebration of his life will be held at North Kitsap Baptist Church, 20516 Little Valley Rd. NE, Poulsbo, WA 98370 on January 16, 2016 at 1:00 pm.

Cisco. Blue confirmed that students who earned their certifications through CyberPatriot have been hired at starting salaries of $70,000 and up, “which was more than those companies’

existing IT people, because those kids knew things from their training that the folks who were already working there didn’t.”

Perhaps more importantly, Pugh agreed with fellow cadets Cody Barschaw and J.D. Finch that the CyberPatriot program fosters a sense of self-sufficiency and collaboration.

“It gives you the skills to take care of your computer’s security and do things for yourself, without needing to pay other people,” he said.

Barschaw added: “It develops your critical thinking and problem-solving abilities, but it also teaches you how to trouble-shoot issues as part of a team.”

Strine sees himself using his newfound cyber-security skills at whatever workplace he winds up at, to help

tion, especially given that the competition is open to any school, from middle through high schools, private schools and even overseas Department of Defense schools.

Barschaw agrees with fellow cadet Zechariah Rodino that a greater awareness of cyber-security is essential to everyday life, with Barschaw noting that he’ll never do his online banking on a public network.

“Technology keeps leveling up, so we have to adapt,” Barschaw said.

Dorathy Mae Duborko February 1, 1922 — December 4, 2015

Dorathy Mae Duborko passed away Friday Dec. 4th 2015.

Dorathy was born on Feb. 1st, 1922 in Tolley, North Dakota to Raymond and Dora Mae (Pope) Raap Helgeson where she joined two older half brothers.

She was named for her mother, Dora Mae, hence the spelling Dorathy. Two younger brothers joined the family after her. Later the family moved to Ellensburg, WA where Dorathy attended Ellensburg High School. She married her first husband, James R Rhodes in Ellensburg in 1941. They eventually made their home in Prosser, WA where they farmed and raised three children until 1956 when Dorathy and the children moved to Marysville, WA where her parents lived. There Dorathy divorced James.

Later she married Arthur A Duborko and they had a daughter. They continued to live in Marysville where Art was a city counsel member and later mayor from 1967-1972.

Both Dorathy and Art were active with the Marysville Historical

tighten their existing safeguards, as well as to help his parents with their software issues. “That’s something every mom and dad wants,” he laughed.

The AHS team has made it through the first two rounds, placing them in the middle 40 percent of more than 3,300 teams.

To advance, they’ll need to make it through the Jan. 29-31 competition.

CyberPatriot is in its eighth year, so Blue is pleased with how well his cadets have performed in their first year of competi-

Society. She also belonged to the Order of Amaranth in Marysville. Mother loved to wood carve and belonged to the Quilceda Carvers. She was also an avid gardener and seamstress. She loved square dancing and made her many dresses and husband Art’s matching sh i r ts. Sadly mom developed Alzheimer’s Disease which slowly took away her memory and ability to sing and dance.

She is preceded in death by her second husband Art in 2008, her son from her first marriage, David J Rhodes in 2012 and a grandson Ted Arthur Rhodes in 1986.

Dorathy is survived by her oldest son, Arthur C Rhodes of Federal Way, WA,daughter, Teresa (Rhodes) Ollis-Ideker, (husband Randall) of Edmonds, WA. Also surviving is a daughter from her second marriage, Naoma M Duborko of Marysville WA. Dorathy leaves behind 6 grandchildren and 11 greatgrandchildren.

Those who knew Dorathy will miss her energy and fun loving nature.

A celebration of Dorathy’s life will take place Saturday, January 9, 2016 at 1:00 PM at Schaefer-Shipman Funeral Home in Marysville.

Energy key to new job MARYSVILLE – Joey Koncoski of Marysville used to make a pretty good living selling real estate.

But the recession hit a few years back, and he switched careers to home energy. The government was encouraging homeowners and business owners with rebates to reduce energy consumption.

Now Koncoski is starting another career. He was recruited to run the Barron Heating and Air Conditioning store at 1062 State Ave. in Marysville.

“Why buy a great heater if it leaks?” he asked.

Koncoski makes sure it doesn’t. Unlike duct tape or goo, he and his technicians use aeroseal, which seals from the inside out, so there is basically no leakage.

Barron already has stores in Ferndale and Burlington, and decided to come to Marysville because even with

BRIEFS New leader

MARYSVILLE – Marysville Care Center, a skilled nursing and rehabilitation facility, has hired a new executive director, Brandon Dravis.

Dravis recently completed Life C a r e’s administratorin-trainDravis ing program, in which he trained at several skilled nursing and rehabilitation centers in the area.

Originally from Port Orchard, Dravis lives in Seattle.

He earned his bachelor’s degree in sociology from the University of Washington in Seattle.

Marysville Care Center, 1821 Grove St., is one of 16 skilled nursing and rehabilitation facilities in Washington operated or managed

Joey Koncoski’s home energy background has helped him in his new job. no marketing sales were doubling in Snohomish County year after year.

Koncoski has longtime ties to Marysville, having lived here for 25 years. He graduated from Marysville-Pilchuck High School in 1997. He said the business is very family oriented. He said about 60 percent of their business comes from referrals. “One of my high school teachers

was here last night,” he said.

“That’s how tight we are.”

Koncoski said the business believes that “the better they take care of their employees, the better they will take care of their customers.”

Barron carries that belief even further by carrying locally made products. Its fireplaces are made in Colville and it recently switched its hot-tub company

to Bullfrog because “It’s made in America” in Salt Lake City, said Jim Akerlund, also known as “Jacuzzi Jim.” In the local showroom along with the hot tubs there are wood and pellet stoves, natural and propane gas inserts, furnaces and ductless heat pumps, which can heat an entire house.

Arlington senior Jeremy Nygard, left, talks over his goals with coach Rick Iversen. Nygard has been wrestling well all season, only dropping one match, and is a favorite for a state title.

Nygard ‘won everybody over,’ wrestling to exhaustion

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — A sixminute wrestling match can be compared to a 400-meter run, Arlington wrestling coach Rick Iversen said.

“Because when you’re done, there is no air left,” he said.

But what if it goes into overtime? By then there is no oxygen left in either opponent — just pure desire.

That’s what senior Jeremy Nygard had to endure to win

his weight class in the semifinals in the recent Everett Classic Tournament, defeating Pasco’s Jake Covington 2-1.

He coasted through his first two matches before going into the semifinals in overtime.

There’s nothing quite like it, Iversen said.

“You watch that, and it almost stops your heart.

He won everybody over,” Iversen said. “To watch an aptly exhausted kid to still perform, and to perform successfully.”

After winning the anticlimatic finale, he was voted the most “Outstanding Wrestler of the Tournament” out of 21 schools and almost 280 wrestlers there.

As a result, he is also the Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Athlete of the Week.

“After I got done wrestling in the finals, the Everett coach really complimented me and wished me good luck and said he would put my name in,” Nygard said. “I thought that was pretty cool.”

It was a grueling tourna-

ment all day for Nygard.

Sitting between matches, which consisted of threehour breaks sitting in the stands and staying warmed up.

“It was brutal on everyone and parents,” he said.

Nygard is expected to win state this year by his coaches. He placed in state both as a sophomore and a junior.

He’s only lost once in his senior season. He won’t know his true competition until he competes at the Matman Classic at Central

Kitsap Jan. 16, he said.

Despite his achievements, he remains humble, Iversen said.

“You can get kids with work ethic so intense that they are not fun to be around,” Iversen said. “He remains to be fun around everyday.”

Because of his work ethic, humility and positive attitude, Iversen had no problem promoting Nygard to captain as a junior.

“His actions demanded it,” Iversen said. “Nobody could stay with him.”

“My selflessness comes from the team,” Nygard said. “You don’t focus on one person but bettering the team, and I was just brought up that way.”

After high school, he doesn’t want to continue wrestling because of the injuries he’s sustained.

He’s a straight-A student and wants to pursue a medical career while studying at the University of Washington.

“I will cry at the banquet, when I say, ‘goodbye’ to him,’” Iversen said.

Arlington, Tulalip and MG girls basketball win

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Getchell girls basketball team held off Lakewood in a 56-50 win Jan. 6.

It’s the kind of win the girls needed after a 12-day break from games, MG coach Shannon Grandbois said.

The game tested the Chargers’ composure and bench depth as they had only nine players active.

“They’re well-composed,” Grandbois said about her Chargers’ performance.

“We’ve been fighting through a lot of adversity.”

Lakewood’s Marissa Blair scored a game-high 23 points, but it was MG’s

depth that made the difference, Grandbois said.

MG led at the end of every quarter, but Lakewood got hot toward the end of the final quarter, making it a three-point game at 44-41 and then 51-49 with less then a minute left.

MG was able to keep the lead with clutch 3-pointers from Gabby Grandbois and Carly Wika.

Post moves and scoring

by Mikail Montez, who led the Chargers with 20 points, was also crucial, Grandois said.

MG improved its record 6-4, and Lakewood fell to 6-4. MG will host Marysville-Pilchuck Jan. 13 at 7:15 p.m.

Had it not been for Azariah Crew out with a sickness, and Alberto Ramos out with a shoulder injury, the Eagles would have won, Mendro said.

“We led almost the whole way, but Pasco caught us at the end, so we got second,” Mendro said. “We were missing a couple key wrestlers.”

Public gives input on new-school needs in Marysville almost 1,100 locals think about the need for new schools for the city.

The most-common thoughts in the survey included: •Mar ysville-Pilchuck High School needs to be completely replaced, along with Totem Middle School.

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – A new year brings new ideas for new schools in Marysville.

The Marysville School District’s internet site for surveying the public, called thoughtexchange, released details recently on what

•All schools need to receive some funding from a potential bond, to ensure tax money is helping every student.

•Replacing old with new will help the learning environment, along with safety and security for all children.

Becky Berg said the results were inline with what a community advisory committee decided in December.

Of the participants, 60 percent were parents of schoolchildren, 35 percent school staff and only 4 percent from the overall community.

Berg said doing the survey online was beneficial.

“1100 people took their time, and a meeting with them never would have happened. Virtual space made it happen,” she said.

Some responders said it was time to stop spending

good money after bad trying to fix things, that Totem looks like a prison, that more psychologists are needed for mental health help, and that Marshall Elementary also should be on the list.

Berg said Marshall probably won’t make the list, but that planning is being done to improve traffic flow there, which is a major concern.

“All of our schools are so old,” Berg said, adding it’s hard to prioritize replacement of them.

One idea that came from msv l.t houg htexchange. com was to ask the Tulalip

Tribes to help fund M-P and Totem, since many tribal students attend those schools.

“They are already supergenerous to us on an annual basis,” Berg said of the tribes.

Berg said the district always is in favor of donations of time and/or money from the community.

For example, to save money, some local subcontractors have volunteered to demolish the old cafeteria.

“Some healing would happen” with that, too, Berg said.

2 from Arlington catch up on credits at state youth academy ARLINGTON – Two Arlington High School students were among the record 152 cadets to recently graduate from the Washington Youth Academy.

Jorge Guerra and Tyler Mueller joined cadets from all over the state to attend the free residential school, geared at teaching teens discipline and helping them recover credits so they can go back to high school and earn a diploma

or seek an alternative path, such as a GED or Running Start.

Y o u t h A c a d e m y Director Larry Guerra Pierce credited the high retention rate to a robust application and interview process helping find strong candidates for the program,

as well as a healthy, two-week acclimation period, where candidates can get more of a feel for the strict discipline needed for the voluntary program and decides it’s not for them.

The highest number of credits possible for the 22-week session is eight, compared to six for a full year of high school. About 133 students earned all eight credits.

Before students entered the acad-

emy, the test of Adult Basic Education put the students’ grade level at 6.7. Near the end, a new test Mueller showed the average grade level at 9.2. Students had an average grade point of 3.4. Cadets also received Community Emergency Response

Training and donated 7,992 hours of community service.

The mission of the academy is to empower at-risk youth to improve their educational levels and employment potential. It is an intervention program for youth who have dropped out of high school or are at risk of dropping out. The next class starts Jan. 16.

Victim’s mom glad 2002 murder charge re-filed against M’ville man

By Diana Hefley Herald Writer

MARYSVILLE — It’s been nearly 14 years since Brady Sheary’s body was

discovered in the parking lot at Cedarcrest Middle School in Marysville. The 18-year-old was stabbed and beaten to death, likely out of jealousy over a girl.

Twice prosecutors have been forced to dismiss the second-degree murder charge against the suspect, Todd Lee Brodahl, because state doctors concluded that

Brodahl was too mentally ill to assist with his own defense. Prosecutors on Jan. 6 re-filed the murder charge against the Marysville man, now 32. Western State Hospital staff late last month notified Snohomish County prosecutors that they intended to release Brodahl to a less-restrictive alternative because under the law he no longer meets the criteria for civil commitment. Doctors don’t

believe Brodahl is a danger to himself or to the community. Snohomish County deputy prosecutor Chris Dickinson on Wednesday asked for a $500,000 arrest warrant to move Brodahl to the county jail.

“I don’t believe he’s no longer a danger to the community. I believe he will always be a danger,” said Tammy Sheary, Brady’s mmom. “My biggest fear is that he’ll be released and

She was relieved when prosecutors told her that they were going to re-file the murder charge. So much time has passed, and she was worried that prosecutors would decide against reopening the case.

“I can’t bring Brady back but I want justice served. He needs to go to trial for what he did to my son,” Sheary said.

WIAA award LAKEWOOD – Sophomore Jelly Perry was named WIAA Athlete of the Week for girls basketball last week.

Perry had 10 points and seven steals in a five-point loss to Archbishop Murphy and followed that up with a game-high 13 points, 19 rebounds, seven steals and two blocked shots in a 53-27 victory against Cedar Park Christian-Bothell to earn the 2A award.

The WIAA website says each winner receives a letter from WIAA Executive Director Mike Colbrese, a WIAA Athlete of the Week beanie and a certificate.

Arsonist hits

2 honored ARLINGTON – Two of Housing Hopes Volunteers of the Year are from Arlington. They are Donna Leder and the Smokey Point Community Church.

Leder volunteers with HopeWorks, an organization that evolved from Housing Hope’s goal to provide job readiness, counseling, internships and work experience to low-income individuals and people experiencing homelessness.

She helped found Ambassadors, an advisory group. She helped create a program for ReNewWorks Home and Décor store, one of HopeWorks’ social enterprises.

Smoke y Point Community Church recently paid for and installed a playground at Housing Hope’s Arlington Triplex property, and spent hours helping with interior and exterior painting projects at Housing Hope’s Maple Leaf Meadows property.

Most recently, the church brought 60 volunteers to the Maple Leaf Meadows property to spread bark and play chips, and stain fences and other outdoor areas.

MARYSVILLE — Police are still looking for the person or persons who set fire to a recycling bin that destroyed a portable building at Marysville-Pilchuck High School Dec. 30.

Mar ysville Fire Department officials say the blaze was intentionally set.

The fire started in a large recycling bin for plastics outside the portable, then spread to the nearby classroom. Inside the classroom there were numerous stationary bicycles. Water damage to insulation in the ceiling also was evident.

The blaze, which started at about 11:40 p.m., caused about $70,000 in damage, fire officials said.

The cause of the fire was not disclosed, and officials would not reveal why they think it was arson.

Students were on winter break at the time but returned Jan. 4.
