ARLINGTON — In the midst of what state health officials have deemed an epidemic of pertussis, also known as whooping cough, Marysville and Arlington are leading the way in reported cases of the illness in Snohomish County this year and local health agencies aren’t taking this lying down.

On Wednesday, April 4, the Cascade Valley Hospital served as the site for half a dozen nurses from the Medical Reserve Corps to administer free “Tdap” shots for four hours. “Tdap” is so named because a single shot prevents tetanus, diphtheria and acellular pertussis, a.k.a. whooping cough, and according to those who supervised the afternoon and evening vaccinations, community members demonstrated a remarkable interest in getting protected from the disease.

“Our clinic didn’t start until 4 p.m., but we had people start showing up as early as 1 p.m.,” said Jennifer Egger, community relations coordinator for Cascade Valley Hospital. “Within our first hour alone, we must have seen between 80-90 people.”

Greg Giraldo of SVR Design, left, hears from city of Arlington Stormwater Utility Director Bill Blake on April 4 in the Tulalip Resort about public works projects such as the jointly coordinated efforts between the cities of Arlington and Marysville.

TULALIP — The cities of Marysville and Arlington, and the Tulalip Tribes, were among the agencies within Snohomish County represented at the American Public Works Association Washington Chapter 2012 Spring Conference at the Tulalip Resort from April 4-6.

An estimated 500 APWA members attended sessions relating to public works projects and innovations in transportation planning, road construction and maintenance, wastewater, solid waste and more.

City of Marysville Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen took pride in being able to show the rest of the region what the Marysville and Tulalip communities have achieved through their partnership. He cited the I-5/116th Street SEE WORKS, PAGE 2

NE interchange project coordinated between the city of Marysville and the Tulalip Tribes, as well as the Lakewood Triangle access/156th Street I-5 overcrossing project, as tangible examples of Marysville’s successful initiatives.

“The mechanism of any agreement comes down to people getting to know other people as they work with them,” Tulalip Tribal Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. said. “We’ve made that happen in our relationship with Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and the city of Marysville, by coming together on projects with common causes.”

While the city of Marysville and the Tulalip Tribes cohosted the conference with Snohomish County, the city of Arlington was not without its own input, as city of Arlington Stormwater Utility Director Bill Blake expressed his appreciation for being able to check in with Nielsen at the conference — a compliment that Nielsen returned — given the number of projects that their two cities have coordinated over the course of the past decade.

“It’s a great benefit, as neighboring jurisdictions, to work together efficiently toward development patterns and stormwater solutions,” said Blake, who touted what he sees as Arlington’s ability to restore and preserve natural resources while still

supporting local business development.

Blake explained that Arlington has planned, with Marysville, the long-term restoration and reconstruction of Edgecomb Creek as it passes through the two jurisdictions.

“We developed a restoration strategy a number of years ago and share this with potential developers so they understand where the final footprint of the stream will be,” Blake said. “Having a well thought-out and coordinated plan between the two jurisdictions is an element of an economic development strategy to support the neighboring development patterns, rather than resulting in increased urban flooding problems.”

COUGH FROM PAGE 1 Egger noted that the 4-8 p.m. series of vaccinations was partially funded through a $5,000 grant from the Cascade Valley Hospital Foundation, which she cited as one of the ways in which the foundation is seeking to expand its outreach into the community.

Dr. Robert Russell, an emergency room physician at the Cascade Valley Hospital, explained that ER personnel have become aggressive in screening for pertussis in anyone who comes in for any reason, which is relatively easy since the test is simple and the results come back quick.

“As recently as five years ago, it used to be virtually unheard of for people to be diagnosed with pertussis,” Russell said. “I could go two years without seeing a diagnosis.”

Dr. Gary Goldbaum, health officer for the Snohomish Health District, visited the Cascade Valley Hospital to observe its April 4 “Tdap shots”. Not only did he identify a cyclical nature to regional whooping cough occurrences, but he also confirmed that Marysville and Arlington have been hit earlier and

“In just the first three months of this year, six infants in Snohomish County have already been affected, two of whom were hospitalized.”

Dr. Gary Goldbaum Snohomish Health District harder by the illness than surrounding areas.

“We started the trend,” Goldbaum said. “We saw an increase an reported cases all the way back in early 2011, even before the infant death on Aug. 27 of last year.”

Of the 200 cases of pertussis reported to the Snohomish Health District for 2012 as of March 30, 64 occurred in Marysville and 31 were in Arlington, but these likely represent the tip of the iceberg. Because a number of adults tend to ignore the possible symptoms of the disease and decline to seek treatment for it, Goldbaum identified the numbers of infant hospitalizations as a truer indicator of the spread of pertussis in the area.

“In just the first three months of this year, six infants in Snohomish County have already been affected, two of whom were hospitalized,” Goldbaum said. “Adults and older children serve as reservoirs of pertussis, passing it on to infants who have no defense.

This is why everyone needs to get vaccinated, to protect the youngest and most vulnerable among us.”

This sentiment was shared by many of the folks who rolled up their sleeves for their shots on April 4.

Marna Danner’s baby is due in two weeks, so she’s had her “Tdap” shot, but her significant other, Greyson Steinborn, had yet to be vaccinated, which was why she accompanied him to the hospital. David Bergemeier was likewise thinking about his nephew, who’s due to be born on April 16, when he brought Raquel Parker along for moral support, up to and including literal hand-holding, as he braved the needle.

“All of us older folks need a booster,” said Nathan Girard of Marysville, who has no children, but who nonetheless echoed Goldbaum’s warning that childhood vaccinations against whooping cough wear off over time.

“When you consider how much it costs to get it anywhere else, free is definitely the best deal.”

Marysville Police seek suspects in obituary-related burglaries tinue to seek the arrest of Tyler Austin Chase, 31, and Corey James Arendt, 20, the two suspects believed to be responsible for the burglary.

They are considered armed and dangerous. Chase and Arendt are still believed to be associated with a black 2011 Chevrolet Impala, Oregon license 376ETA, a rental car. Anyone sighting this vehicle should not attempt to approach it, but should instead immediately call 911.

This continues to be an active investigation.

Anyone with any information regarding these cases should contact Marysville Police Detective Darryn Wiersma or Sgt. Doug Lee at 360-363-8300.

Jazzmine presents ‘Teen Angst’ ARLINGTON — Arlington High School’s Jazzmine once again aims to take the town by storm with their original musical stage show “Teen Angst.” Led by new director Brent McGee, Jazzmine will continue its tradition of singing, dancing and striving for top-quality production values, with added elements of drama and storytelling.

Detectives also determined that additional stolen property had been sold at a store in Portland, Ore., for $17,000. That property is currently being held by the business at the request of the police.

On the morning of Wednesday, April 4, Marysville Police detectives and Snohomish County Sheriff ’s detectives met with the victims of the Marysville burglary to show them the property recovered from Vancouver, and to have them identify the items that belong to them.

MARYSVILLE — On Tuesday, April 3, Marysville Police detectives recovered a significant quantity of high value property stolen in the recent string of obituary-related burglaries in Snohomish County, including the one that occurred in the city of Marysville on March 23.

The property, including jewelry and watches, was found behind a daycare in Vancouver, Wash.

Employees of the daycare reported finding the property to the Vancouver Police Department, whose detectives determined that the items included those belonging to the Marysville victims, and called Marysville Police.

Welcome to the Armed Forces Reserve Center

I

am proud and honored to welcome the new, consolidatGuest ed Marysville Armed Forces Reserve Center.

Opinion I had the opportunity to tour Jon NehrinG this facility in advance a couple Marysville of weeks ago and meet with some Mayor of the top officials. It has been a pleasure getting to know them. I want to say thanks to Col. Phillip Jolly, Maj. David Ketchell, Maj. Leigh Palmer, Kone’ Nisperos Jr. — Executive Administrative Asst. and Capt. Cathleen Topasna.

This facility is top of the line, from its extensive office space, classrooms and LEEDS Silver-certified building to its dining facility and state-of-the-art kitchen, sure to give its Master Chefs a leg up in future Military Chef Competitions.

Our community has been a Navy town since the opening of Naval Station Everett in 1994 and the Commissary/PX in Marysville.

Marysville is home to many military families either permanently or temporarily stationed in the area, or retired military who have chosen Marysville as the place to enjoy their golden years. They and their families contribute in positive ways to the social fabric of Marysville. We are a better community because of their contributions.

With the arrival of the Armed Forces Reserve Center, I am proud to say that we can broaden our status to call ourselves an all-services military town.

When we say we support our troops who are out there daily honoring us with their service and preserving the freedoms we enjoy, that support extends to their families as well, who deserve to live in a safe, friendly and welcoming environment.

I want to share a couple of stories that I hope will reflect the support you will receive here. A while back, I received an email from a sailor on deployment. He shared issues his family back home in Marysville were facing. We were able to assist with the family needs and hopefully provide some peace of mind for this sailor that his family was in good hands while he was doing the difficult work of defending our country abroad. I hope all of our military personnel will feel free to contact me whenever they feel it is warranted, just as any other citizen of Marysville should.

When we met a couple weeks ago, Col. Jolly told a touching story about the warm reception that some soldiers have received in our local restaurants. When they went to settle the bill, they were told it was already paid.

It’s not always going to be free meals and fanfare, but you can See WELCOME, PAGE 5

Sharing what I have learned

n my first year as a Director on the Marysville School Board I have often joked that I have had more to learn than the students. Now, having lived, learned and served through one highly-charged year of educational change, I would like to share with you some of what I have learned.

First, I’ve learned that our students are learning much more than me. I also have learned the joy of working with professional educators who care deeply about educating the young people of Marysville and Tulalip. From each classroom to the superintendent’s office and the school board, the focus is clear — student achievement.

Being in classrooms around the district, I have experienced a focus

Guest Opinion TOM ALBRIGHT and educational intensity I did not experience in either my own education or in my grown children’s.

Did you read fluently at the end of kindergarten? Most of our children now do. Have you taken the high school exams that our students must pass? I tried a sample online test and was challenged by both the math (more than challenged to be honest!) and the language skills expected.

I have learned that the bottom lines for students have improved despite a five-year period in which we cut nearly 20 percent from expenditures. These cuts forced larger class sizes and gave less resources and support to teachers and students.

Our student population is less privileged and more diverse than I knew. Since I moved to Marysville in 2000, the number of students of color has doubled from 20 percent to 40 percent. The number of students qualifying for free or reduced lunches has climbed from 25 percent to 45 percent.

Celebrating art at AHS

pril is Art Awareness Month at Arlington High School. As we finish our preparations, we are reminded that our mission as Arts educators is to actively engage all students in developing a deeper understanding of visual and performing arts communication.

As educators, we know that through art students develop a deeper perception of themselves as well as our society. They mature as they learn to appreciate art’s complexity. Art is discovering, creating and understanding the human spirit. To these ends we showcase student’s work in many ways culminating in art festivals, plays, band concerts and choir performances.

Guest Opinion BEV Schatz Visual Art students are developing an understanding of the core concepts of color, shape, form, texture, line, contrast, balance, pattern, value, space and design. Students in visual art classes are given opportunities to explore these elements and concepts simultaneously with various applied techniques such as drawing, painting, sculpting, and

graphic communication. We also find our place in art history and the contemporary arts culture to express our talents.

During AHS Arts Appreciation Week held the last week in April, we will showcase the student’s artworks and performances by our bands, choirs and theatre art students, at Arlington High School, for the students and community.

Visual Art students will showcase their work at the Annual Art Festival when we welcome our community for a springtime festival and sale. On May 5, you can view their work in the lobby of the Byrnes Performing Arts Center, 18821 Crown Ridge Blvd., from 11 See ART, PAGE 5

Learning from our neighbors

first visit to British Columbia is a learning experience. You learn that BC’s marketing motto, Supernatural British Columbia, is an understatement when it comes to the province’s natural beauty.

Gorgeous, awe-inspiring and vast, BC offers fierce extremes from storm-swept coasts to glaciered peaks and everything between.

Canada’s dollar coins with loons on their faces are known as Loonies. The two-dollar coin, or Doonie, with Queen Elizabeth on its face and a grizzly bear on the reverse side, is whimsically dubbed The Queen with a Bear Behind. Cultural differences are few. You quickly get used to Canadians ending sentences with, eh.

We get a taste of Canada each time we buy tomatoes on-thevine at a supermarket. Almost as inexpensive as Mexican Romas, BC Hothouse tomatoes differ in that they’re raised to ripeness while Romas are picked greenish to ripen during the journey north. Interesting that the winter tomatoes we eat cross northern and southern borders to get to PNW markets while few are grown in the States.

WELCOME FROM PAGE 4 be sure that those who work or train here will be welcomed like one of the family.

We know that this Armed Forces Reserve Center will bring great social and economic benefits to our community, and without a doubt benefit us in other ways that we haven’t even begun to explore.

I wanted to mention just a few ways that Marysville already partners with the military, so you can see where how far we’ve come in this area.

Our adopted ship, USS Ingraham, through the Navy’s Adopt-A-Ship Program; our newest roadway, Ingraham Boulevard, is named in their honor.

We participate in the Military Family Friendly Partnership Employment Initiative that promotes a level playing field for jobseeking military spouses.

I proclaimed 2012 Military Veterans Promotions Year at our March 26 City Council meeting.

The City Council and I encourage local merchants to consider joining online a voluntary new year-round merchant discounts and promotions program, the Merchants MVP Network, powered by the Edmonds-based Operation Military Family.

These are just a few community-minded ways we salute our troops and their families.

This outstanding facility stands

OPINION

BOB GRAEF

BC tomatoes are grown under glass and what a lot of glass! At every trip north it seems that new hothouses have sprung up and old ones have expanded. What follows are impressions gathered from driving the fertile Frazier River delta plus what could be gleaned from the web. Let your mind expand the facts and figures since my data was taken from web-sources that were 2 to 10 years old.

Imagine 13 acres of inter-connected greenhouses at one farm near Ladner. Then imagine how much land BC’s 42 under-glass hydroponic farms would cover if put together. All told, their production contributes more than $600 million to British Columbia’s economy. If Canadians do it where daylight is some minutes shorter than in Snohomish County, why aren’t we doing it here?

Of all greenhouse vegetables sold in Vancouver, 96 percent are

as a symbol that government is just as committed to today’s modern military as the men and women who serve in it.

Maj. Palmer shared with me that the combat patch worn on your shoulder represents service in an active theater during war and that many of you assigned to the Reserve Center here in Marysville have one of these patches. This is remarkable and represents a truth that I believe we as civilians must not overlook. While the lives of all Americans have changed post 9/11, the brave men and women of our armed forces have bore the brunt of that change. Your lives have changed far more dramatically than ours have as you have been put in harm’s way to defend the freedoms of this great nation, sacrificing time away from loved ones, jobs, and other commitments back home, and instead entering into the fray along with all of the dangers and stresses that come with such an overwhelming commitment.

We have the highest respect for what you do daily. We owe a tremendous debt of gratitude for your service. We are thankful that Marysville was chosen to become home to this great facility.

And we hope you will enjoy the city of Marysville.

raised in BC. Of all greenhouse vegetables sold in Washington, nearly 100 percent are raised elsewhere. Is something the matter with this picture? BC’s hothouse industry employs more than 3,200 workers. Imagine what an impact 3,200 jobs would have on Washington’s unemployment rate.

There seems to be no good reason that U.S. growers are so far behind. Population can’t have much to do with it because BC’s population of 4.5 million trails Washington by 2.5 million. For reasons of food quality, economics and security, we should be closer to food sources. One study showed that while the average calorie on Italian tables was produced less than 28 miles distant, the average calorie on U.S. tables travels almost 1,400 miles. Much of it imported.

We’re far behind when it comes to hothouse agriculture. Japan, China, Turkey, Peru, Ecuador and most of Europe are ahead of us.

Hothouses — or greenhouses — use hydroponic techniques where nutrient solutions are dosed out to roots while tubes dispense drafts of carbon dioxide to leafy growth. Light and heat are added as needed.

With greenhouses closed off to the world, threats of bugs and weeds are minimized to a point where they can be controlled without pesticides or herbicides.

Many are certified organic.

Technicalities cause vegetables from other farms to be labeled “Tested to contain no pesticides or herbicides,” which satisfies most converts to organic foods.

Tomatoes are BC’s main hothouse crop and command high prices because they’re picked when ripe. They are pollinated by bees from hives kept in the greenhouses while other insect activity is managed by beneficial bugs such as wasps and ladybugs. As to production, the tomato record was 165 pounds grown in one square meter.

Cucumbers, especially English cucumbers, need a bit more warmth which raises the cost of production. Cucumbers are raised in spring and fall from farms closest to major population centers.

Two or three crops are possible with 20 to 30 pounds of cukes harvested from each plant during four month seasons.

Chances are that the yellow or red peppers you buy come from BC hothouses. The big hothouse

SHARING FROM PAGE 4 community is obsolete. As a school board member and Chaplain/Support Officer for our Police and Fire Departments I now see our city as an urban center, with all the incumbent challenges and opportunities.

I’ve learned that our educators know how to educate students. However, they are hobbled by lack of resources caused by our state Legislature’s failure to live up to its responsibility and the lower priority given to education in our society as a whole. Am I the only one who sees the irony that when school is labeled “failing” by the No Child Left Behind Act, the answer is to allot more funds to them? Surprise! With funding, we begin to see them do better. If schools had adequate resources to begin with, would we be in this situation? In Washington state, our actions and allocations have not matched our words when it comes to education funding — either in K-12 or higher education.

near Ladner specializes in peppers, growing 14,000 plants per acre.

Every square meter of plants delivers an average of 55 pounds of peppers which, at about four peppers per pound, is way more than Peter Piper ever picked.

Commercial hydroponic greenhouses are rare in Washington.

Herbco’s three hydroponic houses produce living basil near Snoqualmie. Greenhouse Business Magazine (1992) featured a writeup about Jack Benjamin’s farm outside Spokane. A hydroponic pioneer, Benjamin invented solutions to the inevitable problems while supplying pricey tomatoes to discriminating buyers in Spokane.

The web offers no evidence that Benjamin is still in business.

Washington State University is charged with providing agricultural research, advice and technical assistance to growers yet there is no action on the hothouse front.

Considering that hothouse vegetables test out to be nutritionally superior to field-grown vegetables, contain less chemical toxins and can be grown on small acreages near cities, what’s the hold-up?

Comments may be addressed to robertgraef@comcast.net.

I have learned educating our children well will require our schools to equip students for today — and tomorrow. I had a student explain to me recently how much simpler Newtonian Physics is than Quantum Physics. Newton’s world followed constant, known rules. Quantum Physics opened a window into a scientific world where probability rules instead of certainty. We — Board, administrators, teachers, parents, community — together, must lead in this new era which is much more like Quantum Physics than Newtonian Physics. I never expected being a school board member would be undemanding, but I am learning to love the daunting challenge of creating an effective, exciting learning community in the Marysville Schools.

Finally, I’ve learned that I have much more to learn … but I’ve also been reminded that learning is one of life’s greatest joys. Our schools are about that exciting work. So am I.

Recently, the performing arts groups collaborated on this year’s production of Beauty and the Beast and the Jazzmine 2012 production of Teen Angst being shown on April 13,14,20, 21 and 22.

On May 4 and 5 the AHS Jazz bands will perform the annual “Swing Into Spring” dessert dance where they will feature classic big band dance music from the 20’s to the 60’s, including Count Basie, Stan Kenton and Duke Ellington.

Swing Into Spring is open to the

community and held in the AHS commons. Tickets are $12.

Imagine a world without art: no images, no songs or music, and no stage productions. Without these things, all would agree that this would be a very boring world. With our performing and visual art programs, we explore a world of color, texture, sound and drama. If students are lucky enough to experience art in high school, it is their ticket to a future of art exploration, appreciation and joy.

Cabela’s prepares to open April 19

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — When the new Cabela’s store at Quil Ceda Village in Tulalip welcomes customers for the first time on Thursday, April 19, its familiar log and stone exterior will open up to reveal decorations, products and services to meet the needs and tastes of local hunters and outdoorsmen.

The 110,000-square-foot Tulalip store will include two 8,000-gallon aquariums filled with native fish and a veritable zoo of taxidermy trophies, as regular Cabela’s customers would expect to see at any of the store’s locations, but Joe Arterburn, corporate communications manager for Cabela’s, explained that the Tulalip Cabela’s gear and employees were chosen with this region in mind.

“We like to get local experts as employees,” said Arterburn, who noted that roughly 250 new Cabela’s employees were hired to work at the Tulalip store. “They help us stock merchandise by getting to know the area. We have salt water-specific fishing lures and crab pots, which I can tell you we don’t stock at the Cabela’s in my native Nebraska,” he laughed.

Arterburn added that not only is the hunting gear tailored to game like mountain deer, which is more fitting to the surrounding terrain, but the Tulalip Cabela’s also strives to buy from Washington state suppliers.

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

While the mountain of taxidermy trophies is a standard feature of any Cabela’s store, no two are alike, and the Tulalip Cabela’s will feature wildlife native to the Pacific Northwest.

Michael Bishop, an outfitter in the fishing department, was practically raised on the banks of the Stillaguamish River. His new job comes in the wake of having worked for Northwest Hardwoods in Arlington for 32 years, until the plant closed in January of this year.

“The Cabela’s store at Tulalip will have many benefits to all of the surrounding communities, with local knowledge of the fishing spots, its back country trails and the Puget Sound region,” Bishop said.

Marysville native Bob Banks, an avid fly fisherman with the Evergreen Fly Fishing Club who had long since retired from the workaday world, was looking for a change when his daughter informed him that the Tulalip Cabela’s was hiring.

“I’m a little on the grayhaired side of life, so I wondered whether they’d even consider me, but fishing is a

field I’ve always been interested in,” said Banks, who will also greet customers in the fishing aisles. “There’s a lot of older folks working here, though, blending with the younger generation.”

Although Banks has never worked retail, he sees his job more as someone who’s wellversed in a subject than as a salesman.

“There’s three kinds of people I expect to deal with; those who are new to fishing, those who are growing in it, and those who know more about it than I do,” Banks laughed.

“For those just starting out, we can figure out what type of fishing equipment they might need. For those looking to move up in skill level, I can help them determine how far they should go with their gear. For those who are at the top of their game, I’ll just point them toward the products they need. This is all quality stuff we’re selling here.”

Sen. Stevens announces retirement

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

announce her plans at the end of the regular session, she delayed that announcement until the end of the special session. Pearson had already been aware of Stevens’ plans, but delayed his own announcement as a courtesy to her, and assured her supporters that he’d received her permission to run for her open seat.

“I have loved making time for my constituents and hearing their thoughts about what we could do to make the district and this state a better place in which to live,” Stevens said. “Looking forward, this is now the time to step aside and dedicate my undivided attention to my family and grandchildren.”

Pearson was effusive in his praise for Stevens, describing her as “a strong voice for our community,” one whom he credited with championing responsible budgets and lower taxes. He noted that, while a switch from the House to the Senate would mean working with new colleagues in the Legislature, he would continue to serve many of the same local constituents.

“I think I could be a stronger voice in the Senate

than I’ve been able to be in the House, not in the least because there are fewer members,” said Pearson, who currently serves as the ranking Republican on the House Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness Committee.

If elected to the Senate, Pearson plans to prioritize jumpstarting the economy by creating living wage jobs.

“I believe this starts by creating an environment friendly to job creation, and extends to building great schools and investing in our communities,” said Pearson.

Democrat Eleanor Walters, who had run unsuccessfully for Rep. Dan Kristiansen’s seat representing the 39th Legislative District two years ago, had already filed to run against Stevens for her Senate seat. On April 4, Monroe Mayor Robert Zimmerman officially announced his own intentions of running for the empty seat.

Stevens will continue to serve during the special session and through the remainder of her term. Her successor will be sworn in on the first day of the 2013 legislative session, in early January.

State Rep. Norma Smith of the 10th Legislative District, left, had Lakewood High School freshman Desmond Thorpe as a page from Feb. 26 through March 2.

Thorpe pages for Rep. Smith OLYMPIA — Desmond Thorpe, 14, traveled to Olympia to page in the state House of Representatives from Feb. 26 through March 2. He was sponsored by his 10th District Representative, Norma Smith. Thorpe lives in Stanwood and is a ninthgrader at Lakewood High School. He is the son of Chris and Sherry Thorpe.

Each day Thorpe attended page school to learn about the legislative process. As part of his duties, Thorpe

distributed documents and notes to legislators and staff on the House floor, as well as around the capitol campus.

“It was a delight having Desmond in Olympia serving as a page and learning more about the legislative process,” said Smith, R-Clinton. “His contribution and service to the Legislature was a great help, along with the other terrific students who served us so effectively.”

OLYMPIA — March 29 marked a changing of the guard in more ways than one, as 16-year Republican state Sen. Val Stevens of Arlington announced her retirement, and 12-year state Rep. Kirk Pearson of Monroe announced his own plans to run for Stevens’ open seat in the 39th Legislative District.

Stevens was first elected to the House of Representatives 20 years ago, and then elected to the state Senate in 1996, so Pearson’s move is not without precedent in the history of that seat.

Stevens has served parts of rural Snohomish, Skagit, Whatcom and King counties in the 39th Legislative District, in addition to serving on a number of Senate committees, notably the Senate Human Services and Corrections Committee. She cited the policies that she’s

worked on to regulate the safety of children and to help keep them in their homes, even when their parents may have needed guidance, to maintain the family structure.

“Two decades in the Legislature has given me the opportunity to work with many wonderful people and to be their voice when they needed help navigating the burdensome morass of government regulations,” Stevens said. “Families are the building block of society, and that is why I have devoted my legislative career to family law, while understanding that stability builds strength within the family, and that the purpose of government is the protection of their freedom to enjoy the fruits of their labor.”

Stevens had not raised any money for a re-election campaign in the fall, and while she’d previously promised to

In addition, Dwayne Lane’s Arlington Chevrolet presented a $500 check representing a one-time monetary donation to the Stilly Valley Little League, which also has an opportunity to raise even more funds through a Chevrolet Youth Baseball fundraiser. Sponsored leagues across the country will each receive 2,000 fundraiser entry tickets to distribute for a suggested donation of $5, and each league will keep 100 percent of the proceeds it raises. At the end of the fundraiser, five winners — one from each region — will win

the Chevrolet Equinox or Chevrolet Cruze vehicle of their choice. Each participating market will award a secondary prize of a television and Blu-Ray player.

Tickets are available at the Stilly Valley Little League concession stand, or through sponsorship coordinator Shannon Kujath at tskujath@yahoo.com.

“We are so grateful for the opportunity to participate in this awesome program” Kujath said. “It’s truly an honor for our players, league and families that we were chosen by Dwayne Lane’s Arlington Chevrolet as the league to benefit from the Chevrolet Youth Baseball program.”

Gooding’s Guide To Fitness A gentler, more open-minded approach to women’s fitness, health and body image On a recent Saturday I gave my first Women’s Body Image Seminar. Magic happened.

I was nervous, overly-prepared, hyperfocused and determined to make my points exceptionally clear. Shoot, those adjectives (maybe including kind, warm, fun … gotta cut myself some slack) sum me up … That’s who I am, by definition. Just this morning, I told my daughter that “One of mommy’s strengths isn’t patience. However, I have many good qualities: determination, focus, intelligence, vision.” She nodded in reply, just like my women at the seminar did.

They all nodded in agreement, a lot.

I had a lot to say.

However, the women at my seminar had

GOODING’S GUIDE TO FITNESS

ANGIE GOODING

more to say than I did. I shared my story, I shared ideas, I shared valuable information and I made it comfortable for them to share themselves. I also came from a place of experience and passion, which helps.

However, I am just one woman with one story. Women listened to me, and appreciated each moment, but what I learned from them, and what they learned from each other, blew my mind.

I heard stories about double mastectomies, hair loss, illness, pregnancy, and phys-

ical and mental abuse, which all produce or contribute to body image trauma.

I also heard women talk about their men, and how their men are part of the bodyinsecurity solution, not part of the body image problem. Women gushed about their daughters, and one mother who came with her daughter voiced that, before the seminar, she’d never heard about her daughter’s body insecurity. Women voiced that they bond with their friends over diets and other superficial topics, rather than focusing on the issues that really matter. One woman, audibly frustrated, mentioned that she’s never been happy with her body despite running seven marathons, and she doesn’t want her daughters to feel the same.

Powerful stuff happened on Saturday … it was more powerful than I imagined it’d be. Unity, sisterhood and truth were present; these women just needed a safe place, a leader and a method for sharing such sensitive and bottled up feelings.

I feel very fortunate to have led a powerful seminar about a profound topic and to have offered it to women in my community.

I know I’m on the right path with something here. And isn’t that a great feeling to know that about your own life?

I have more to say, and much, much more to learn. My next seminar is scheduled through Marysville Parks and Recreation for May 19. For more info and to sign up, please visit Marysville Parks and Recreation Activities at marysvillewa.gov or contact Andrea at 360-363-8401.

It’s time for a gentler, more open-minded approach to women’s fitness, health and body image.

Arlington farm inspires children’s writing

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — In the nine years that John Connolly has been farming in Arlington, his work had never served as an inspiration for young writers, until a rainy Thursday morning brought a field trip group of 19 contemplative thirdgrade students, including his son Eli, to his farm.

Eli Connolly attends the Soundview School of Lynnwood, and his

third-grade teacher, Ethan Benson, wanted to bring E.B. White’s “Charlotte’s Web” to life for his students by taking them to see, hear and smell an area farm not unlike the one inhabited by Wilbur the pig.

“I’ve taught it for many years because it has tons of great descriptive writing,” Benson said. “It’s among the best of children’s literature because it’s not written down to kids, but it’s accessible to them.”

Benson already has an entire unit of his curriculum devoted to storytelling, culminating in the class writing its own fables, but on March 29, Benson was able to encourage his students to be expressive in their writing by connecting White’s accounts of his fictional farm to their own experiences on a real-life farm. The kids sat under cover of the rain with notepads in hand, some on Connolly’s front porch, the rest next to his herding dogs, to try and figure out how to evoke the chirping of birds and the smell of hay and manure to their own readers.

“We’ve never had a visit from students like this before,” John Connolly said.

“We’re generally too busy to host student field trips, but it’s our son’s school. We all had a ball, though.”

Unlike Eli, John Connolly has never read “Charlotte’s Web,” although he did see the movie. Still, he appreciated the chance to show

children his son’s age that “it’s possible to live this life, which is a lot of hard work, but very rewarding,” and like Benson, the elder Connolly was impressed with the quality of writing he heard when the students read their descriptions of his farm aloud.

“Kids need to find ways to express themselves, and I admire this technique of teaching them to write well, which they all need to learn,” John Connolly said.

“Kids won’t become good writers unless it’s a natural part of their lives,” Benson said. “We do free writing in class every day, because you only get good at it with practice.”

Benson singled out Eli Connolly for particular praise, crediting him with organizing his fellow students through a tour of the barn to see and feed the sheep.

“I enjoyed the trip,” said Soundview third-grader Vincent Wilson. “It really brought us to the farm. We

Arlington farmer John Connolly explains some of the finer points of life on a farm on March 29 to visiting third-grade students who have read ‘Charlotte’s Web.’ don’t have to just imagine Mr. Zuckerman’s farm from ‘Charlotte’s Web.’ It’s like we were really there.”

“Being on the farm helped me write,” agreed fellow third-grader Emerson Liscott. “I could see, feel, smell and hear what it was like to be on Mr. Zuckerman’s farm.”

“I wasn’t really surprised by anything, because the book really prepares you,”

added third-grader Amber Kelley. “I liked the dogs a lot, because they were trained and under control. I didn’t like the smell around the cows, though.”

“I hope these kids learn how to write in ways that bring to life for others the things that interest them,” John Connolly said.

“Everyone’s life is interesting, and everyone has an interesting story to tell.”

League Of Women Voters of Snohomish County Presents:

Our Kids Are Still Not For Sale!

The business of sex trafficking of our children is a clear and present danger. And Snohomish County’s kids are not exempt!

What is sex trafficking? The U.S. Federal trafficking law defines victims of trafficking as persons trapped in debt, bondage, servitude in the sex trade or other situations through fraud, coercion or the threat of force. Sex trafficking is forced exploitation in all sectors of the sex industry including prostitution, stripping, exotic dancing and pornography. An estimated 27 million victims worldwide are trapped in the sex industry ... and not of their choice.

80% are women and children! Total yearly profits generated by human trafficking is estimated at $32 billion! An estimate of the child victims in the Seattle area alone is 300 – 500.

Join us and attend a FREE presentation Thursday, April 19th to learn more about this significant social plague.

No reservation is needed.

Come see a brief film and hear a panel of speakers who will provide you with up-to-date information about Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking in Snohomish County.

Speaker panel will include: Paula Newman-Skomski and Lori Hartelius, Sexual Exploitation Intervention Network Matt Baldock, Snohomish County Prosecuting Attorney’s office Sarah Collins, parent of a child victim You will learn about the work of the Snohomish County Sexual Exploitation Intervention Network (SEIN); characteristics of sexually enslaved victims; how children are trapped into this vicious business; what resources kids need to change their lives and escape from slavery; laws recently passed by our state legislature; and what you can do to keep kids safe in our community.

Date and Time: Thursday evening, April 19th, 6:30 – 8:30 Location: Rosehill Community Center, 304 Lincoln Ave., Mukilteo Directions: From I-5 or the Boeing Fwy (SR 526), take the Mukilteo Speedway (SR 525) west toward the

Sound. Turn right on 5th St. stoplight. Go 1 block on 5th St. and turn left. Rosehill will be on your right. Park in the lot to the right of the building. More parking is available down 3rd St.

We are committed to raising awareness of this vicious problem and helping to find solutions.

Please Join Us! Together, we can help our children live healthy lives!

Circulation Manager

Diablo is a beautiful senior statesman.

He gets along with dogs and other cats. He does not get along with young children, so his new home should have only children 12 years and older. He can be a little shy at first, but is a cuddler after getting to know you. He and his roommate, Digit, both are loners, but like to snuggle at the end of the day.

He's a poodle mix who is going to need one or two wonderful people to take him in and give him the love he needs, and with that, he will likely be a great lap and companion dog!

All animals adopted from EAS are neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, wormed and treated for fleas.

All cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.

Could This Treatment Really Stop Neuropathy Once and For All? Find out if this could be your solution! Only $25 for anyone who is suffering with these conditions.

Do you have any of the following symptoms...

What these studies mean is that you could soon be enjoying life…without those aggravating nerve problems.

Could This Be Your Solution?

• Numbness in the feet?

It’s time for you to find out if chiropractic will be your neuropathy solution.

• Tingling in the legs?

• Peripheral Neuropothy?

For the next 10 days, $25 will get you all the services I normally charge new patients $250 for!

• Weakness in the arms or legs?

What does this offer include? Everything.

Take a look at what you will receive:

• Burning sensations in the hands or feet?

The pain….the cold feet…the loss of sensation… lack of sleep… it’s enough to drastically affect your life. And you worry it’s only going to get worse throughout life.

My name is Dr. Scott Peseau, owner of Arlington Spine Center. We’ve been helping people with neuropathy and nerve problems for more than 25 years.

Often neuropathy is caused by a degenerating spine pressing on the nerve roots. This can happen in any of the vertebral joints from the neck all the way down to the tail bone.

The good news is that chiropractic treatments have proven effective in helping remove the pressure on the nerves.

By using gentle techniques, I’m able to release the pressure that has built up on the nerves. In many cases this has allowed the nerve to heal and the symptoms to go away.

Patients Showed 85% Resolution of Symptoms For example, numerous studies have proven chiropractic’s effectiveness in helping nerve conditions.

Patients showed an 85.5% resolution of the nerve symptoms after only 9 chiropractic treatments. – Journal of Chiropractic Medicine 2008 With chiropractic care, patients had “significant improvement in perceived comfort and function, nerve conduction and finger sensation overall.” ~ JMPT 1998 “Significant increase in grip strength and normalization of motor and sensory latencies were noted. Orthopedic tests were negative.

Symptoms dissipated.” ~ JMPT 1994 Due to Federal law some exclusions may apply.

• An in-depth consultation about your health and well-being where I will listen…really listen… to the details of your case • A complete neuromuscular examination $75 value.

• A full set of Specialized x-rays to determine if a spinal problem is contributing to your pain or symptoms…$80 value (if clinically necessary).

• A thorough analysis of your exam and x-ray findings so we can start mapping out your plan to being pain free, $75 value.

I’ll answer your most proving questions about nerve problems and how chiropractic can help.

Until April 20th, 2012 you can get everything I’ve listed here for only $25. The normal price for this type of evaluation including x-rays is $230, so you’re saving a considerable amount by taking me up on this offer. Call 360-4749900 now.

We can get you scheduled for your consultation, exam and x-rays as soon as there’s an opening. Our office is located at 215 E. 3rd Street in Arlington.

When you call, tell the receptionist you’d like to come in for the Nerve Evaluation so she can get you on the schedule and make sure you receive proper credit for this special offer.

Sincerely, Dr. Scott Peseau, D.C. P.S. Remember, you only have until Aprl 19th to reserve an appointment at this significant discount. Why suffer for years in misery? Phone 360-474-9900.

Do you have numbness, tingling or pain in the hands and feet? If so, there is hope. Read the article to find out.

Here’s What Our Patients Say...

“Before seeing Dr. Peseau, I had severe neuropathy in my left leg and foot including numbness and tingling. I had foot drop where I could not lift my foot and had to use a walker to get around.

Now after just a few weeks of treatment, my leg is much better, the feeling has returned and the foot drop is almost 100% gone! I can walk a lot better and farther than before. Dr. Peseau genuinely wants you to be better and he help to restore your quality of life. I am getting better each day under Dr. Peseau’s expert care and direction! Trudy Pater, Security Guard “I had a severe neuropathy in my leg after an amusement park accident that trapped my leg and injured the nerve and tissues.

After treatment with Dr. Peseau I feel a lot better and have regained much of the feeling in my leg. I am now able to to stand and walk without much pain!!! Keep up the great work and I thank you for all you have helped me with. I will be recommending this clinic to friends and family in the future! ~ Daniel Jordan
