Lions spruce up community with trees

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Half a dozen members of the Arlington Lions Club braved a cold downpour to spruce up the Arlington Cemetery as part of an international campaign by their organization.

Wing-Kun Tam, international president of Lions Club, called upon Lions to continue planting trees after they’d surpassed his initial goal of 1 million trees planted, and Arlington Lions did their part on Nov. 3 by planting close to 40 arborvitae evergreen trees that they’d purchased from the Smokey Point Lowe’s store.

Although the Lions have been active in Arlington for 80 years and have supported the local Boy Scout troops before their club was even charted in town, the day’s tree-planting was a relatively new affair for the Arlington Lions, but they benefited from some helping hands courtesy of the Department of Corrections which helped dig holes and remove old arborvitae trees to make way for the Lions to plant the new SEE LIONS, AXX

Students and teachers from the Moerike Gymnasium in Stuttgart, Germany, swing by the Arlington City Council Chambers during their month-long visit to America.

ARLINGTON — For 11 years, Arlington High School has teamed up with the Moerike Gymnasium in Stuttgart, Germany, to broaden the horizons of students in both countries.

From Oct. 6 through Nov. 3, AHS and several of its students’ families played hosts to 19 students from Stuttgart, as they attended 10 days of school traveled to Deception Pass, spent a day in downtown Seattle, attended all of AHS’s Homecoming activities, from the parade and game to the dance, and stayed three days and two nights in Winthrop before exploring the Olympic Peninsula

during four days and three nights in Port Townsend. The German students’ travels throughout the region even took them to the Hibulb Cultural Center on the Tulalip Indian Reservation.

Klaus Schellhaas, one of the English teachers from the Moerike Gymnasium, explained that he and AHS German teacher Ben Mendro trade off trips to each other’s countries every other year.

“When our students have to speak English here, they are not as afraid or hesitant in the language,” Schellhaas said. “They become more fluent.

Schellhaas said. “We only have a little bit of coastline left up north,�

Gruber-Knake said.

Like many of her fellow Stuttgart students, this trip marked Sophie Bergemann’s first time in America, and the 16-year-old marveled at the sizes of what America had to offer. “Everything is huge here and looks like it does in the films,� Bergemann said. “You see it in the size of

ones. “There was a big mobile home fire here last spring and a lot of the old trees died,� said Maxine Jenft, a member of the Arlington Lions Club and the Arlington Cemetery Board, who came up with the idea of planting the trees along the fence that separates the mobile homes from the Arlington Cemetery. “We just wanted to beautify this area.�

Fellow Arlington Lions Club member Barb Tolbert noted that the former Stilly-Snohomish Fisheries Enhancement Task Force had organized an Arbor

Day weekend tree-planting at the city of Arlington’s Country Charm Recreation and Conservation Area just this past April, while that group’s current incarnation as Sound Salmon Solutions is already coordinating a similar tree-planting at the community’s new stormwater wetland on Nov. 12. “We checked to see where these trees would be needed and where they’d been requested,� said Betty Breneman, president of the Arlington Lions Club.

the streets and the trucks,� said Franziska Detering, 15, one of Bergemann’s fellow students at the Moerike Gymnasium. “We don’t even have trucks in Germany.�

Like their teachers, Bergemann and Detering were struck by the lushness of the state’s rainforests, with fellow Stuttgart student Vera Jackisch, 16, chiming in to compliment its oceanside beaches. “There’s a lot of different types of landscape here,�

Bergemann said. “It can feel strange to be in a foreign country, but it’s not scary.

Most people understand you.� “Everyone is so friendly,�

Jackisch said. “Everyone talks to you.�

The German teens were a bit more apprehensive about their first Halloween in America.

While Germany observes a much simpler form of the custom, almost exclusively for small children, the German teens were surprised to see so many houses decorated so elaborately for the occasion. “The lanterns and fake spiderwebs were everywhere,� Jackisch said. “It’s a very American cliche,� Detering said, recalling the American horror films she’d seen.

Homecoming, on the other hand, was a completely new custom to the German students, with Bergemann describing it as “like a carnival, where everyone is excited and going a little crazy.�

The students turned solemn as they reflected on what they’d learned from the Hibulb Cultural Center. “The Indian culture is not like the movies we see,� said Julian Kimmig, 16. “They’re trying to save their culture,� Bergemann said. “It’s difficult, because things are changing a lot.

We don’t have an equivalent to that.�

While Jackisch looked forward to eating German meals again at home again, with Bergemann noting that Americans add a bit too much sugar to their foods for her tastes, they all agreed they would miss their host families and Arlington High School itself. “I’ll miss football too,�

Bergemann said. “Now that I’ve gotten used to it, I know how the game works.� “There are always tears when it’s time to go,� Gruber-Knake said. “Through this experience, they can understand the different ways of the world, and why they are so.�

Haggen stores host food drive SMOKEY POINT — The Marysville and Arlington Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores are among those taking part in a month-long food drive to restock the shelves of local food banks in time for the holiday season.

Nonperishable food and cash donations will be collected through Nov. 30 for distribution to local food banks by Northwest Harvest, the only nonprofit food bank distributor operating statewide in Washington, with a network of more than 325 food banks, meal programs and high-need elementary schools.

Attendees will be able to sample six different wines from 5-8 p.m. at WineStyles, located at 6608 64th St. NE in Marysville.

Willow Place, a specialized recreation program for adults with developmental disabilities, was started in 2008 with four clients, but now has 68 registered participants. It provides weekly sessions, each of which includes a fitness hour, an art hour and a social hour.

All the activities focus on wellness and are abilityappropriate to meet each client’s level, as well as to keep them social, active, verbal and learning new things.

Donors also may purchase pre-stuffed bags of groceries that include tuna, macaroni and cheese, peaches, chili, green beans and pinto beans for $5 apiece at Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores, or they may make donations at the cash register of $10 or $20.

Requests for assistance at local food banks have been steadily rising over the last several years. Low-income families are also hit hard-

Legion dedicates flag disposal Arlington Police arrest suspects mailbox on Veterans Day in nighttime vehicle prowls MARYSVILLE — This year’s Veterans Day in Marysville will also mark the inauguration of a new community resource, courtesy of Marysville American Legion Post 178.

The Marysville Legion Hall will once again conduct its open house and chili feed on Nov. 11 from noon to 3 p.m., and at 1 p.m., the Legion members will perform a dedication ceremony for the

newly decorated mailbox that will be used throughout the year to collect worn-out American flags for proper disposal.

Post 178 Cmdr. Ken Cage thanked Carmen Brown of AbleMark for decorating the mailbox, which will be placed inside the gate at the post, located at 119 Cedar Ave., to make it easily accessible for the public to deposit their flags when they are no longer

serviceable. “The American Legion performs a dignified and respectful ceremony to burn American flags that have become too frayed and worn to be useable,� Cage said. “You won’t miss the mailbox’s bright red color. We ask that, if possible, folks who drop off their flags pin stories to them about where those flags were flown and any unusual circumstances about them.�

ARLINGTON — At approximately 12:40 a.m. on Oct. 31, Arlington police received a call from a Gleneagle resident reporting two suspicious males walking the neighborhoods near the Gleneagle Clubhouse. A subsequent check revealed that several unlocked vehicles had been entered and numerous items stolen.

Arlington Police arrested two Everett men, ages 37 and 32, for vehicle prowls and booked them into the Snohomish County Jail pending the filing of felony theft and vehicle prowl charges. Arlington Police believe that the vehicles entered by the suspects were

unlocked, and items such as GPS units, medications, checkbooks, CDs, iPods and other items were recovered from the two suspects.

Arlington Police Chief Nelson Beazley credited these arrests in part to the sharp observation of the local citizen who made the call to police “These thefts were crimes of opportunity,� Beazley said. “We were fortunate that a vigilant neighbor reported the suspicious activity that led to the arrest of these two suspects. The Arlington Police Department reminds all residents to remove any valuables from their vehicle and to lock it. It’s the best

Don’t ignore summons for jury duty Residents of Arlington, Marysville and Lake Stevens can be called for duty at Marysville Municipal Court MARYSVILLE — The dog ate my summons. I’ll be out of the country. Business is brisk and I’m the only one who can do the work. The boss can’t afford to lose me for a day or two.

No one likes getting that summons to report for jury duty. Marysville Municipal Court clerks have heard all the reasons for dodging jury duty, or worse, completely ignoring a summons by simply not responding when it comes in the mail.

It’s unfortunate, court officials say, because many people don’t know what they are missing.

“Surveys have found time and again that people strongly believe that jury duty should be fulfilled, even if inconvenient,” Municipal Judge Fred Gillings said. “Surveys also show that while many have low expectations going into the process, after the fact they appreciate the chance to participate.”

Court Administrator Suzanne Elsner said that’s

reflected in the exit surveys the court has their own jurors complete, pulling from a random stack of questionnaires. “We get many ‘Thanks for the opportunity to serve’ comments, and others who say that jury duty was not what they were expecting.”

Jury duty is an important feature of civic participation in our democracy, a citizen’s chance to speak for the community, deliberate and make fair decisions in a judicial system that couldn’t function without it, Elsner said.

Not showing up and ignoring a summons can have real consequences for court operations, and the individual summoned, Elsner said.

The municipal court a couple months ago summoned 50 residents for a sixjuror panel. Typically, court officials may excuse 10-15 of these residents for various valid reasons. The court had 14 show up for a six-member jury panel. The low number was too few to enable the city prosecutor and public

defender to exercise their preemptive challenges each can use during jury selection to excuse jurors they believe would not be helpful to their side. As a result, the trial was continued.

This isn’t the first time in Marysville that an undersized jury pool has brought justice to a halt.

“If you get a summons, we’d appreciate it if you would show up,” she said.

“Your service as a juror is very important to us; we will do all we can to make your time with us comfortable, with the least amount of disruption to your work or obligations at home.”

A jury duty summons is a lawful order of the court directing the citizen to appear; failing to show is considered contempt of court.

The way the system works, jurors are summoned randomly two months prior to a trial date and are scheduled at the time of trial. Jurors serving in Marysville Municipal Court must be residents of Marysville or the cities of Arlington or Lake Stevens, both of which contract for court (and jail) services. The court sends a reminder four weeks prior to the trial date to those who have not yet

responded.

Those who are eligible can be excused from jury duty if they have illnesses that would interfere with their ability to do a good job, would suffer unusual hardship if required to serve, or are unable to serve for other legitimate reasons.

Jury trials typically run one or two days, Elsner said.

Courts in recent years have also tried to make the process more interactive for jurors in the cases they hear.

For example, Marysville’s court now permits jurors to take notes.

Elsner mentioned that in many instances, cases are

settled before they wind up going to trial. Jurors are paid $10 a day plus mileage reimbursement.

The court’s two judges, Fred Gillings and Lorrie Towers, hear criminal cases including assault, domestic violence, driving under the influence, non-felony thefts and other various gross misdemeanors, misdemeanors and infractions. Judges in Marysville are elected positions.

For people who are curious to see the judicial process in action, Gillings said that hearings are open to the public and invites interested people and commu-

nity groups to come and watch a trial.

“Jury trials are an important civic function at the courthouse,” the Judge said.

“Without it, we couldn’t do the court’s business.”

For more information about jury duty, visit the Washington court jury duty website at https://www. courts.wa.gov/newsinfo/ resources/.

Marysville Municipal Court is located at 1015 State Ave. and its phone number is 360-363-8050. It is open 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with a daily lunch hour closure from 11:50 a.m. to 12:20 p.m.

he rich rewards of diversity never cease to amaze me. When we engage fully with people who experience the world differently than we do, we can expect to be inspired. Two stories came across my desk this week that illustrate the point.

The first is about a couple in Everett who, according to newspaper reports, celebrated their recent wedding by inviting nearly 50 people with developmental disabilities to serve as bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girls, and so on.

“Why wouldn’t a bride want people in her wedding who are examples of love, patience and compassion,” the bride was quoted as saying. Having loved and nurtured a daughter with severe disabilities until she died tragically of her condition several years ago at age 11, the bride has come to know something about human value.

“People with disabilities, they know how to love, and they know how to forgive, and they know how to suffer,” she told a reporter. “They were my teachers.”

Not that everything about the wedding was easy or society page material. “I know that someone will have a meltdown and someone will drool, and that’s OK,” she said recently.

“Someone will know that they are loved because they weren’t shushed or left at home for the big occasion.” There was even uncertainty at the church where the wedding took place, despite the best intentions of everyone involved and an outpouring of material support.

“It’s good for our congregation to be exposed to different

They want to sing, they want to play.” Exactly. Normal, except that they know how to love and forgive in a way that inspires and enriches the rest of us.

The second story involves a woman who has worked her way up through a variety of training programs and was recently promoted to a new position in a local manufacturing company. Like the pastor mentioned in the previous story, when something is unknown it can be a little intimidating. But the other employees seemed to accept Hannah for the dedicated worker she is and to forgive any little idiosyncrasies associated with her developmental condition — including the lunches she took from the lunchroom and then returned with apologies.

The power of teamwork

T

wo district-wide initiatives, Professional Learning Communities and a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum, are changing the way we work with one another in the Arlington School District and strengthening our professional practice.

As educators, teamwork is not new to our profession. We have worked in teams for years, including teams to make curricular recommendations; teams to plan school events; school improvement teams; grade or department teams. A few years ago, great interest grew among our educators around Professional Learning Communities (PLC), a new kind of teamwork. In a Professional Learning Community teamwork is focused on high levels of student learning for all students through teacher collaboration. PLCs use structured protocols around their work, heightening teamwork to focus three “big ideas.”

Idea No. 1: Acknowledgement that our organization exists to ensure that all students learn.

When executing this idea, a PLC changes their lens and they examine what students have learned as a result of their teaching.

The focus is from “what have I taught?” to “what have my students learned?”

Idea No. 2: Developing a culture of collaboration. A culture where educators recognize that, in order to meet the goal of learning for all students, they must work in teams. In order to do so, PLCs create structures, a way of doing business with one another. Their collaboration is focused on:

GUEST OPINION

BY DIANE KIRCHNER-SCOTT ■ The knowledge, skills and dispositions each student must acquire in their grade level or course.

■ The evidence they will gather to monitor student learning in a timely manner.

■ How they will provide students with additional time and support that is timely, directive, and systematic.

■ How they will enrich the learning of students who are already proficient and how they will use evidence of student learning to improve their professional practice.

While a group of teachers working together is not new, what distinguishes a PLC from any other group in our profession is a collective commitment to responding when students don’t learn. In short, the job of a PLC is to focus on learning, to work collaboratively, and to hold one another accountable for the learning of all students.

Idea No. 3: A focus on results: the learning of all students. A PLC focused on results judges their effectiveness based on the achievement of their students by identifying the current level of achievement of their students, working together to improve student achievement, and using periodic monitoring or evidence

that students have learned.

When teachers engage in PLCs, they must agree on learning targets all students need to master to be successful in a given grade or subject matter. Agreeing on these learning targets through the identification of a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum for the district has helped to focus our PLC conversations. “Guaranteed” here means agreeing on the content to be learned at a specific grade level or subject area and “Viable” means teachers have adequate time to teach the content within the allotted instructional time. A Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum does not articulate all the skills students learn in any grade level or subject area. Instead it identifies the “must have” skills all students need.

This is not easy work, but it is essential work. Teachers across the district have embraced these initiatives. Ensuring that all students learn calls on us to constantly examine our practices in light of student learning. I don’t know of a more talented staff than we have here in Arlington.

Professional Learning Communities and a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum provide powerful, real time, professional development and are regarded as promising practices leading to high levels of student achievement.

Recently the general manager noticed a card being passed around discreetly among employees on the shop floor, a common enough workplace ritual. When the card finally reached him, he saw it was a “get well” card for Hannah signed by all of her co-workers. And as he opened the card, $380 fell out onto his desk — a gift of hope, a gift of the heart, a gift of solidarity, a gift that says “we want to do something” for a fellow employee who is one of us, one of the team.

There is something so beautiful about these stories and everyone in them. A beauty born of suffering to be sure, a suffering not to be wished on anyone. I read these stories over and over again, feeling (to borrow Joanna Macy’s wonderful phrase) as if I had been “dipped in beauty” by such pure expressions of humanity and love.

Inclusion is not without its challenges as the bride, the pastor, and Hannah’s fellow employees can attest. But the rewards are rich in qualities that speak to what it means to be human, qualities that enhance and strengthen any group endeavor from a manufacturing team to a church congregation — or even a wedding party.

Thanks for supporting Dollars for Scholars In his novel “Jayber Crow,” author Wendell Berry describes the many elements of daily life which, when woven together, form the fabric of small town community. Those who have a little more help those who have a little less; young people learn and practice personal responsibility through the guidance of their elders; and many hands pitch in to guarantee the success of a community project.

Those of us involved with the Arlington Dollars for Scholars Foundation are continu-

ally grateful to the individuals and businesses in our community who never fail to emulate these values.

In these difficult financial times, it’s hard to find sufficient words to express the thanks we feel to the businesses and donors in the Arlington area that helped make our annual Dollars for Scholars Bingo Night fundraiser a success.

All money raised will go toward helping us provide scholarships to many of Arlington School District’s class of 2012 graduates.

The generosity displayed by our businesses and our community serves as a model for our young people to follow as they transition from

Missing pieces of the puzzle begin to be filled in, and boy are you surprised, Aries. A home improvement project finally sees the light of day, and it is not your doing.

Transportation becomes a real issue with new houseguests. Try to be accommodating, Taurus, but don’t go overboard. You have a life and shouldn’t have to make sacrifices.

Lengthy remarks are not your style, Gemini. Some people, however, need further instruction. A blast of cold weather gets the creative juices flowing at home.

It’s business as usual at home, Scorpio, and it wouldn’t hurt for you to shake things up a bit. Be clever! The rescue of a friend in trouble requires more help.

Not again, Sagittarius. You’ve been cornered one too many times by an old friend. Invite them over and answer all of their questions once and for all. A memo pleases you.

5611 108th St. NE.

Be prepared for upcoming change in weather Marysville Fire District offers tips to help keep community members safe during the approaching colder temperatures MARYSVILLE — With autumn fast approaching, more and more people in the Marysville area will be enjoying the change of seasons and the cooler temperature.

Unfortunately, some autumn–related weather activities such as hiking and camping, turning the furnace back on or cleaning the chimney do present their share of hazards.

To help ensure everyone in the community enjoys a safe autumn, the members of the Marysville Fire District offer the following tips and suggest you post them where they are likely to be seen by your family members and coworkers.

Heating Equipment: According the National Fire Protection Association in 2008, heating equipment was involved in an estimated 66,100 reported U.S. home structure fires, with associated losses of 480 civilian deaths, 1,660 civilian injuries and $1.1 billion in direct property damage.

These fires accounted for 17 percent of all reported home fires. Chimney maintenance is vital to your family’s safety as 14 percent of all home fires are started by heating equipment. ■Have your chimney inspected and cleaned on a regular basis. These items should be inspected annually by a professional and cleaned as often as the inspections indicate: Wood stoves, fireplaces, chim-

neys, chimney connectors, and all other solid-fueled heating equipment.

Inspect all heating equipment annually, and clean as necessary. The leading factor contributing to home heating fires (25 percent) was failure to clean creosote from heating equipment and chimneys (NFPA). â– When possible, burn seasoned woods (dryness of the wood is more important than hard wood versus soft wood). â– Smaller, hotter fires will burn more completely and produce less smoke than larger fires. â– Do not burn cardboard boxes or trash, as they can spark a chimney fire. â– Install stovepipe thermometers, which help monitor flue temperatures where wood stoves are in use, then adjust burning practices as needed. â– Space heaters need space. Portable space heaters need a three-foot (one meter) clearance from anything that can burn and should always be turned off when leaving the room or going to sleep.

Space heaters, whether portable or stationary, accounted for one-third (32 percent) of home heating fires and four out of five (82 percent) of home heating fire deaths (NFPA). ■When turning a heating device on or off, be careful to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

When buying heaters, look for devices with automatic shutoff features.

â– Be sure any gas-fueled heating device is installed with proper attention to ventilation, and, if unvented gas space heaters are used in bedrooms or bathrooms, they must be small and wall-mounted. â– Do not use your oven to heat your home. â– Test smoke alarms monthly; install carbon monoxide alarms. â– Make sure fuel-burning equipment is vented to the outside, that the venting is kept clear and unobstructed, and that the exit point is properly sealed around the vent, all of which is to make sure deadly carbon monoxide does not build up in the home.

Enjoying the Outdoors: As you take in the fall’s beautiful scenery, think ahead, be prepared, and stay safe. ■Check the weather forecast before heading outdoors for a hike. It is not safe to hike when heavy rain, winds, or snow in the mountains is expected. ■Carry drinking water.

Don’t drink from streams, springs, or lakes without first properly treating the water. ■Observe wildlife from a safe distance. Don’t try and get too close to wild animals. ■Stay on the trail — if you leave it, you may get lost. ■To help prevent food

poisoning, keep cold foods cold and hot foods hot. Don’t store perishable foods in a hot car. ■Clean all surfaces and utensils that come into contact with raw meat or meat juices before re-using them. ■Wash hands frequently when preparing food, and before serving and eating. ■Keep kids away from grills and lighter fluid, and keep grills away from anything that can burn them. ■Be aware of tiny parasites that carry disease and know which symptoms to watch out for. When in a potentially infested area, apply insect repellent, wear light colored, long-sleeved shirts, pants, and socks. ■Do not build a fire near tree trunks, fallen trees, or over hanging branches. ■When extinguishing a campfire, let it die down, then break up the coals or logs, spread the pieces, soak them with water, and then cover the area with dirt or sand.

For School: Parents must do some homework to keep their kids healthy and safe. Don’t let safety “fall� by the wayside. ■Walk and ride to school safely. Obey traffic lights and signals, walk only in crosswalks, and listen to the crossing guard. ■If your kids bike to school, be sure they wear a helmet. ■If possible, always walk your child to the bus

stop and pick them up as well. ■Keep backpacks light — a child’s backpack should only be 5 percent to 10 percent of his or her body weight, according to the American Chiropractic Association. ■A backpack with wheels is easy to maneuver and reduces back stress.

If your child does choose to wear a backpack, utilize both straps. Slinging the backpack over one shoulder may cause spinal curvature.

Fall Clean-Up: Yard work does not end simply because summer is over. Here are some safety tips for tackling autumn tasks around your home. â– When lifting heavy bags of mulch, use a wheelbarrow when possible, and remember to lift with your legs, not with your back. â– Be careful when pruning. Pruning from a ladder is especially dangerous. â– To avoid blisters when doing yard work, wear gloves. â– If you are doing a lot

of raking, try an ergonomic rake, which can be found at most hardware stores and garden centers.

Pet Safety: Watch out for family pets as you prepare for the cold, festive days of fall. â– Many brands of antifreeze are highly toxic. Store new and used antifreeze in a sealed container. â– Chocolate is a special treat for nearly all humans during Halloween and Thanksgiving, but it is toxic to dogs, cats, and birds. â– Holiday meals can be hazardous to pets. Chicken and turkey bones can get stuck and pierce the digestive tract. Rich foods can cause pancreatitis or bloating. â– Indoor pets not acclimated to winter temperatures should not be outside in cold weather for long periods. Outdoor pets can withstand fairly cold temperatures, but make sure they have proper shelter from wind and rain, and provide them with good bedding. Frostbite is a winter hazard to pets.

Cross country teams compete in regionals

BY JAKE MCNEAL jmcneal@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Lakewood, Marysville Getchell and Arlington traveled to their respective cross country regional championships on Oct. 29.

The Cougars and Chargers traveled to the District 1 2A and 3A Regionals at South Whidbey High School. The Eagles competed in the 4A Districts at Lincoln Park in Seattle.

While at South Whidbey Marysville Getchell honored the memory of Juan Mendoza, the Charger student and soccer player lost to an Oct. 24 car accident.

The Charger boys ran 200 yards behind the last runner in their 5k race and stopped before the final 300-meter stretch to put on memorial T-shirts reading “Win it for Juan” on the front and “Drive safe” on the back. They walked hand-in-hand and crossed the finish line together to the applause of everyone in attendance. The girls team, also dressed in the

T-shirts, met the boys to walk the final 100 meters with them.

“You’re a class act,” someone yelled from the stadium crowd.

The boys met cross country coach Randy Edens for a mass hug and did the same with the girls team. The Everett High School team approached the Getchell runners with a card and exchanged hugs with a few of the runners.

Lakewood sent only seniors Kris Mugrage (9th place at 16:44.02) and Rachel Cundy (eighth at 20:00.25) to 2A Districts despite fifth-place finishes from both teams.

“This was the first time in at least 27 years that one of the boys and girls teams didn’t advance to State,” Lakewood cross country coach Jeff Sowards said.

“I’m confident we will challenge for the top spots in the state next year. Rachel is proud to represent Lakewood High School, but she wishes the rest of the team could be there.”

The Getchell girls fin-

ished fourth and only junior Rachael Lefstad moved on to 3A Districts with a seventh-place finish in her 5k race.

“It’s a little disappointing to finish fourth, but it was still a good showing,” Getchell cross country coach Randy Edens said of his girls team from which only Alissa Belan graduates this year. “It’s been a really solid year for a first-year program — it should be fun next year.”

Arlington’s 4A boys finished 16th in their 4A 5k race to miss the District cut.

“The kids we ran against are probably going to place in the top 30 in the state,” Arlington cross country coach Mike Shierk said. “(The KingCo Conference competition) was extremely tough for our young groups without a lot of senior experience. If Jared (Alskog) had run a 16:39.00 (his Oct. 29 time) at South Whidbey last year, he would have gone to State at 15th. (2010 graduate) Jared Clark ran a 16:39 last year and made

State at 24th.”

The Eagle girls finished 16th in their race as well. “(Junior) CJ (Taylor) ran her fastest time all season

(20:16.00), but placed 48th in the girls’ race,” Shierk said. “We were not in the race from the get-go.”

Mugrage, Cundy and

Lefstad will compete in the Washington State Cross Country Championships at Sun Willow Golf Course in Pasco on Nov. 5.

Arlington teams face off in Halloween match

BY JAKE MCNEAL jmcneal@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Arlington’s varsity volleyball team challenged the varsity football team to an afterschool costumed Halloween volleyball match in Arlington High School Gym. Volleyball coach Melissa Thompson brought the idea for the Halloween game from her time at Marysville’s Grace Academy.

The girls put on a clinic, doing what they do best to take the match 3-0.

“Maybe we’ll play them in football,” Thompson said afterward.

Football coach Greg Dailer, wearing Poindexter glasses, and Thompson, in a Rapunzel outfit, both took part in the action. Outside hitter Vanessa Van Eyk came dressed as Thompson. Senior setter Megan Abdo, in a ravishing beard and backward Arlington hat, came as Dailer.

Thompson’s Rapunzel wig

couldn’t stand up to the competition and flew off when Thompson attacked the net to block a shot. The same was true of junior wide receiver/ defensive back Terry Dawn’s ‘70s basketball wig.

Senior libero Kela King, true to her craft, dominated the serve count in the match and kept the defense strong in all three games.

The boys stayed with the girls in game 1 but ultimately fell 25-18. They fell apart to lose game two, 25-9. They got the hang of their new sport in game 3 and jumped higher than the girls and stuffed the ball on the girls’ end of the floor, but fundamentals are what win volleyball games.

The girls avoided errant volleys and returned balls with proper two-hand digs instead of one-handed swats. The boys fell to their knees in dismay at the end of game 3 as they could not come back from a two-point deficit, losing 25-23 to give the girls the three-game sweep.

Dusty Eating The Clean Eating movement has swept America.

People are eating healthy foods that are locally grown. Magazines covers shout slogans about Clean Eating, and Tosca Reno has probably sold a bazillion â&#x20AC;&#x153;Clean Eatingâ&#x20AC;? books. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a ton of chatter about how to do it, why people should do it and how to get started.

But let me share a secret with you: Eating Clean is common sense work. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not rocket science.

When I meet with clients, at each session I always ask â&#x20AC;&#x153;Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your nutrition?â&#x20AC;? and before they answer, I know what their answer will be.

Facial expressions are a dead giveaway; I can also tell by how long they hesitate before answering my question. I have an excuses-radar the size of Washington state. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m good.

Anyway, even though I already know the answer to my â&#x20AC;&#x153;Howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your nutrition?â&#x20AC;? question, I go through the rigmarole by listening, nodding and tilting my head (right, clients?). If my client hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eaten â&#x20AC;&#x153;clean,â&#x20AC;? they generally start by saying some-

GOODINGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S GUIDE TO FITNESS ANGIE GOODING

thing like: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Well Iâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was ok, butâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;? Most of the clients who begin their discussion of nutrition by saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;Umm â&#x20AC;Ś I just â&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;? have committed what I have coined â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dusty Eatingâ&#x20AC;?.

Let me define â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dusty Eatingâ&#x20AC;? for you.

I can almost guarantee that if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a mom, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re guilty of Dusty Eating. If you are an avid TV watcher, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re guilty of Dusty Eating. If you cook or bake a lot, or if you sit at a desk most of the day, you may also be a Dusty Eater. Dusty Eating isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly the opposite of Clean Eating, but it definitely sabotages a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worthwhile efforts at eating well.

Dusty Eating is eating a little of this, and a little of that. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eating clean most of the time, but then finishing your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last bite of grilled cheese, or helping yourself to a handful of fishy crackers.

Dusty eating is sampling your creations while you cook, or taking the last helping, just because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s there. Dusty Eating doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem all that bad because â&#x20AC;&#x153;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only a little bit!,â&#x20AC;? but truthfully, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s terrifyingly damaging because these calories add up quickly.

Take, for example, fruit snacks. The other day, I ate one off my sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lunch plate, simply because it was there.

Out of curiosity, I looked at the nutritional value of the small pack of snacks. Eighty calories per snack pack. Huh. So, again, out of curiosity, I opened a pack of the fruit snacks and counted how many treats were nestled within.

Eight treats per package.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all. Eight.

So, one little treat has 10 calories. Now, if I were to do that 10-15 times per day (with a variety of â&#x20AC;&#x153;thisâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;thatâ&#x20AC;? bites), that would add up to 150 extra, unnecessary calories. And a handful of goldfish could be a bit more expensive than 10 calories.

You with me?

Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s do the math: Over the course of a day, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s say that you eat an extra and unnecessary 150 calories. Over the course of a week, that would be an extra 1,050 calories.

Over the course of a month that would be an extra 4,200 calories and an extra 50,400 a year. Yikes. And if 3,500 calories equals one pound, could that really mean you

could gain 14.4 pounds in a year? Maybe, depending on how much you exercise, and if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already satisfied your daily intake of calories.

Honestly, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d rather see you eat an entire slice of Mud Pie at Red Robin once a month than Dusty Eat every day for a month. And wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t eating a Mud Pie be more satisfying than four fruit snacks several times a day?

Moral of the story? Knock it off. No more Dusty Eating, got it? This week, I challenge you to keep a food journal, and in it include: 1. What you ate.

2. How much of it you ate.

3. What time you ate it.

Keep track of every single morsel. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to do this forever, but you will learn a lot about your eating habits and will have information so you can begin changing your Dusty Eating habits and/or the habits that sabotage your Clean Eating efforts.

And let me know how it

works for you. Deal?

Sehomeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Emily Webster knocked in two first-half goals, the second with assistance from Jessica Bertucci, and Hanna Tarleton added another goal five minutes before halftime to gouge Lakewood for a 3-0 lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We set a goal of reach-

ing the final four, and we knew weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to rise to the competition of Sehome and Cedarcrest,â&#x20AC;? Lakewood coach Jeremiah Wohlgemuth said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to play solid defense and control the ball â&#x20AC;&#x201D; if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the ball, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got 11 defenders and a keeper.â&#x20AC;?

Cougar Morgan Rettig answered with a goal off of a corner cross five minutes into the second half with junior Ariel Jensenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s help to put Lakewood on the board, but Sehomeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jessica Bertucci connected for a 59th-minute goal to ice the match.

Sehome took nine shots on goal to Lakewoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five.

Cougar keeper Miranda Head notched five saves on the night.

The result wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ideal for the Cougars, but taking on the top team in the tournament is something to be proud of. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We knew we had to hold them to one or two goals to compete because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a low-scoring team,â&#x20AC;?

Wohlgemuth said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was fantastic to see the girls fight back and only allow a breakaway goal in the second half. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve established through 16 games (and an 11-3, 13-4-1 record this season) that we can play with the top teams.â&#x20AC;?

On Nov. 3, Lakewood traveled to Sultan to take on Squalicum with the winner earning a trip to state.

The game remained scoreless until the 32nd minute when Cougar Hailey Duitsman scored off a throw-in by Taylor Studzinski giving the Cougars a 1-0 lead. Neither team was able to score after that and Lakewood earned its third consecutive state berth.

Grounds at library receive Tribes open gas station facelift from Eagle Scout

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Parker Yancey, a 15-year-old Lakewood High School student, loves to read at and visit the Arlington Library.

He’s visited it so often that, in the midst of planning out his Eagle Scout project for the Boy Scouts of America, he noticed that the grounds of the library were in need of some attention.

With help from his parents, Steve and Tanya Yancey of the Seven Lakes area of Stanwood, Parker contacted the city of Arlington and was given the thumbs-up to take on a landscaping project on the library’s behalf.

Initially, Parker put in 35 hours of work to plan, carry out and report on the project. On Oct. 8, he was joined by 30 generous volunteers, who helped him weed the grounds and lay a weed barrier, as well as plant 25 bushes and spread 10

are likewise thrilled with their son’s success.

“When Parker learned that his father was an Eagle Scout, he was inspired by his father’s example and wanted to be one also,” Tanya Yancey said. “Through the project, Parker learned leadership skills and how to have confidence to ask strangers for information and donations.”

Parker expressed the hope that the community and patrons of the library will appreciate how nice and clean the grounds look now.

The Yancey family anticipates that library-goers will especially love the spring blossoms of the hundreds of flower bulbs that Parker’s group planted.

TULALIP — The Marine Drive Chevron fueling station celebrated its soft opening on the early morning of Nov. 3, as Tulalip Tribal members took part in a blessing ceremony and reflected on the progress that this business venture represents for their people.

“It’s a symbol of how our Tribes are growing and feeding the economy, not just of our base, but on both sides of the freeway,” said Tulalip Tribal Vice Chair Glen Gobin. “It seems to have sprung up overnight. It took 90 days, from start to finish. It’s amazing how everyone came together, working long hours in heavy traffic, to make this happen. That’s great teamwork.”

Tulalip Tribal Board member Don Hatch Jr. joined Glen Gobin in giving credit to Quil Ceda Village Manager Steve Gobin, among others, for the part he played in making the gas station a reality. Tulalip Tribal Treasurer Chuck James, before he pumped the inaugural tankful of gas from the station’s pumps, deemed this new gas station yet another step in the Tribes’ economic development.

“When we started looking at venues and moneymakers to draw customers in, we looked at the casinos back east,” James said. “One of the first things they did

Special

Thanks

Last week, our son was involved in a terrible car crash in Marysville. Our thoughts and hearts are with the family who lost their son, and with the other family whose son is still recovering.

We want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who was involved in helping our son - the witnesses who helped at the scene, the firefighters and EMTs from Getchell, Marysville, and Arlington Fire Departments who were involved in the rescue efforts, the pilots, and the doctors and nurses who provided him with the best care possible. There are not enough words to express our gratitude, and we wish we could thank each and every one of you personally.

Additionally, we have been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love, compassion and support that people both from within and without our community have shown our son. Please know that every prayer, good thought, card, and word of encouragement has helped move him towards further healing. We thank you for caring about our son. We feel so fortunate and proud to be part of the Marysville community.

Tulalip Tribal Treasurer Chuck James pumps the inaugural tankful of gas from the pumps of the Marine Drive Chevron fueling station on Nov. 3. was build gas stations next to them, because then you get the customers who stop and say, ‘Oh, I think I’ll go over here for a while.’ We’ve been blown away by the success of our station at 116th. It was obvious we were going to do a second station, but we looked at this area and said, ‘How the heck do you do this?’”

Fred McDonald, an engineer with Quil Ceda Engineering Services, explained how the Marine Drive Chevron fueling station’s unique layout benefits its commerce.

“The highest throughput is a triangle, which this site was suited to fit,” McDonald said. “If and when it expands into a new store, it’s designed to funnel its traffic through toward that store and increase its business.”

The Gobins both acknowl-

edged contractor Sabre for working with the Tribal Employment Rights Office to ensure that Tribal members would be employed by this project, with Glen Gobin adding his thanks to the city of Marysville and Snohomish County for their cooperation.

“We finished on time and within our budget,” said Glen Gobin, who also expressed his gratitude to supplier American Energy. “It’s always refreshing to work with someone who buys into the Tribes’ values.”

Puyallup Tribal Council member David Bean visited to take part in the ceremonial drumming and offer his own congratulations.

“I always look to Tulalip as leaders in Indian country,” Bean said. “This is sovereignty in motion.”

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion, what is important is that God is happy with your religion.

Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to the open study and honest application of Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s word. It may not be entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that the whole point of religion? Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talk about it. 360-939-2080

Arlington American Legion presents Veterans Day parade, serves meals to vets

PNW MarketPlace!

ARLINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Downtown Arlington can once again expect a main street parade and a hearty meal for its former and current

service members on Veterans Day. The members of Arlington American Legion Post 76 will be lining up entrants at 10 a.m. Nov. 11 for their veteransâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; parade starting at 11 a.m.

The truck with the World War II and other older veterans has long been a mainstay of the parade, but Arlington Legion members strive to represent every era of veterans in the procession, including Vietnam veterans.

As in previous years, the parade will proceed south on Olympic Avenue and conclude in time for the 1 p.m. dinner at the Post 76 Legion Lounge, located at 115 N. Olympic Ave. Veterans eat for free, and members of the general public pay $5.

Also, as in years past, a number of older veterans will be honored during the dinner, and the traditional ceremony honoring missing-in-action military members will once again be conducted.

The dinner is free to all veterans, whether theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re Legion members or not. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also one of the few days that members of the general public can hang out in the Post 76 Lounge.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Coal Hard Truthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; forum comes to Marysville on Nov. 17

MARYSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The coming of coal trains will serve as the subject for â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Coal Hard Truth,â&#x20AC;? a forum set for Nov. 17 in the Totem Middle School cafeteria.

According to event spokesperson Dan

Klimke, its purpose is to inform the community of the potential impacts of those coal trains, as well as what the community might be able to do about them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The coal companies want to put 10-20 more coal trains through Marysville every day,â&#x20AC;? Klimke said, noting the current state of automobile traffic in Marysville, and how existing train traffic affects it.

The forum runs from 7-8:30 p.m. at 1605 Seventh St. in Marysville. For more information, Klimke recommended logging onto www.transitionportgardner.com/news.

Marysville YMCA hosts â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sweat for a Vetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fundraiser on Nov. 12

MARYSVILLE â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Marysville YMCA is showing its support for disabled veterans on Nov. 12, the day after Veterans Day, through â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sweat for a Vet.â&#x20AC;?

The three-hour cardio event will run from 6:30-9:30 a.m. at 6420 60th Dr. NE in Marysville to raise funds for Wounded Warriors, to help provide equipment that will allow disabled veterans to continue their rehabilitation and expand their vocational options.

Those who arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t able to attend this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sweat for a Vetâ&#x20AC;? event can still support its cause by making a general donation or sponsoring event participants.

To sign up or for more information, call Ronda Hardcastle at 360-651-1605 or log onto www.sweatforavet.kintera.org.

Trafton Community Center hosts Fall Festival

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Trafton Community Center welcomed the public to its Fall Festival on Oct. 30, which gave former students of the Trafton School and area residents alike a chance to check out its programs.

While the afternoon was mostly devoted to Halloween-themed activities for the kids, Trafton Community Center Program Coordinator Randi Ray was ready to talk with visitors about its upcoming classes and meetings for both children and adults.

“We’ve reopened Trafton to offer low-cost YMCAtype programming,” Ray said. “We’re very excited to help spread community awareness of a new start for the building.”

Tuesdays at 7 p.m. are for teens to share music, games and spiritual study. The second and fourth Wednesdays

at 7 p.m. and Thursdays at 10 a.m. of each month are for informal one-hour sessions of prayer, study, discussion and fellowship, for all ages and adults respectively. During the first and third Wednesdays and Thursdays, these sessions take place at the Oso Chapel.

Tina Ray will also be teaching knitting and crochet crafts at Trafton on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month, starting at 6 p.m., with the Oso Chapel hosting that program on the first and third Thursdays of each month.

The Saturday before the Fall Festival, the play areas of Trafton hosted a baseball skills clinic for ages 8-12, while the Sunday Fall Festival itself drew 140 attendees within its first hour alone.

Angelina and Elizabeth Bennett are in high school

now, but they still remember attending Trafton from kindergarten through fifth grade. They arrived at the former schoolhouse in Halloween costumes on the afternoon of the Fall Festival and expressed optimism for its future, even as they remarked upon its changes.

“It seems really empty without the kids’ desks in the rooms,” said Angelina Bennett, 16.

“It’s good, even if it feels a little weird,” said Elizabeth Bennett, 15. “I hope we can see people who remember when it was a schoolhouse.”

Ammaron Twitchell’s school days at Trafton are well behind him, but neither of his two boys is old enough to have attended their dad’s old school.

“Places like this always seem so much bigger when you’re a child,” Twitchell laughed. “I’m sad it got run down a bit, but it’s awesome

that they’ve turned it into a community center. The atmosphere here has been

very welcoming.”

For more information on the Trafton Community

Center, email TraftonCC@ gmail.com, or call 360-4358027 or 510-329-8297.
