ARLINGTON — Jill Murphy, owner of the Tobacco Express roll-your-own cigarette store in Arlington, is wondering whether her business will last the summer. On May 9, Gov. Chris Gregoire signed into law a bill that will tax loose tobacco sold at such stores at the same rate as prepackaged cigarettes, which takes effect July 1. Joe Baba, a tobacco distributor for Washington state who co-owns multiple rollyour-own cigarette stores in the area with his wife Kari, is considering legal action against the state. “Like so many small-business owners throughout the state, I am still very disapSEE TOBACCO, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — On May 19, the Regency Care Center became home to a much younger crowd than they usually serve. The four baby chickens in their new coop were only five days old at the time, and they won’t start laying eggs until this fall or winter, but in the short time since their arrival the new occupants have already endeared themselves to many of the seniors staying there. “They’re so precious,” said 78-year-old Laura Lee Sawyer, a six-month resident of Regency Care Center, as she gently cupped a chick named “Itty” in her hands on May 29. “And they’re just tiny-tiny.” Both Sawyer and 84-year-old LaRaine Friend, who’s been at Regency Care Center for two years, enjoy coming outdoors to visit the chicks in their coop, although Regency Care Center Activities Director Molly

CHICKS FROM PAGE 1 Weiland has conducted most of the care for the chicks so far. “They’re time-consuming at first, because you have to regulate their heat,” Weiland said. “But once you’ve got that set, and you have enough water and feed for them, they’re kind of like cats who are happy as long as their litter boxes are clean.” A year ago, Regency Care Center resident Annella Winkes passed away, leaving behind a small sum for the center, and when

Weiland asked the family, they gave her their blessing to use that money to fund the establishment of a chicken coop at the center for the benefit of residents like Winkes, Sawyer and Friend, for whom such baby chicks are a familiar sight. “A huge majority of our residents are former farmers,” Weiland said. “They didn’t want to lose that, but in many cases, that connection was taken away from them before they were ready to let go of it. For folks like that, there’s nothing more peaceful than looking out your window and seeing chickens in the yard.” An investment of $200 got

Regency Care Center not only the four baby chickens, but also some starter feed, a heat lamp and enough materials for volunteer labor to build a chicken coop, complete with a stained glass window. While Sawyer and Friend have visited with the chicks outside, Regency Care Center staff have also brought the chicks indoors on foul-weather days and for those residents who can’t easily leave their rooms. “I like petting them and talking to them,” Sawyer said. “It’s like therapy. You have to hold them loosely. Don’t squeeze them. And if you talk to them, do it softly.”

“We had hundreds of chickens on our family farm,” said Friend, as a nameless chick perched calmly on her shoulder on May 29. “I look forward to seeing them grow.” Although the city of Arlington recently upped its maximum limit of hens that can be kept within the city limits from five to seven, Weiland has no immediate plans to expand Regency Care Center’s flock of chickens beyond its current count of one Barred Rock, one Buff Orpington and two Light Brahmas. Arlington does not allow roosters to be kept within the city limits without a special permit, but the center has no plans to breed the chickens. “We’ll sell the eggs, probably just to friends and fam-

pointed that the legislature and the Governor would move forward with a bill written by Big Tobacco companies to make it nearly impossible for an independent tobacco shop like mine to survive,” Kari McKibbenBaba said. “As of right now, we are evaluating our legal options and will determine an appropriate course of action.” Murphy is simply continuing to run her business and hope for the best, since she sees little else that she can do. “I’ve heard some of my customers say that it won’t be worth it,” Murphy said of the price hikes that they anticipate will result from the tax. “Others have

coop on solar power. In the meantime, Weiland has already seen the comfort that the chicks have provided the center’s residents, and expects the relationship between the residents and the chickens to yield greater dividends down the line. “By helping to care for the chickens, our residents will be able to get involved in the community by giving something back,” Weiland said. “They need to feel needed, and they used to be part of this community, so there’s no reason why they can’t still be.”

said that it doesn’t matter, because of how much they love the product. We’ve got a lot of customer loyalty, but I don’t know whether that’s going to be enough to keep us going. Even with our repeat customers, we’re already riding a fine margin and just barely hanging in there as it is.” While Baba estimated that a $39 carton of rollyour-own cigarettes from his store would see their cost to customers jump by about $20, state revenue officials have estimated that the average price of a carton of rollyour-own cigarettes would be $67.60, which is only $3 less than the average price of a carton of state-taxed, prepackaged cigarettes. “I don’t know what to tell my customers,” Murphy said. “I know some other roll-your-own stores have

already raised their prices, but we haven’t. There’s no way for us to pay for this on the back end. We’re on the fence right now, but this could push us off.” Murphy expects to have a better sense of where her business stands by July 1, the effective date of the law, which will also be the first anniversary of when she opened Arlington Tobacco Express. “I quit my other job and gave up my insurance to start the Tobacco Express,” Murphy said. I’ve given a lot of my free time to make it work. We’re none of us rich people. My customers and I are all working people. They come to us because they want to save some money.” The Babas have a website devoted to the tobacco legislation at http://legislature. tobacco-joes.com.

Summers new pastor at Our Saviour’s HomeGrown BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — By the time he was officially installed at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church in Arlington on Sunday, June 3, Scott Summers had already served as its pastor for a month. But before Summers’ arrival, the 119-year-old church had spent the past five years without a permanent pastor at all, by relying on interim pastors and guest speakers to step up to the pulpit while church secretary Camille McDugald coordinated the congregation’s business. McDugald and Dianne Engelsen, a member of the church for 20 years, welcomed the arrival of Summers, who delivered his first sermon at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church during its 10:30 a.m. service on Sunday, May 6. Engelsen acknowledged that the interim period prior to Summers’ arrival was longer than usual for the church, but she deemed Summers a pastor worth waiting for. Although the 55-year-old Summers is new to western Washington, he has a lifelong history with the Pacific Northwest, from growing up riding horses on his family’s wheat and cattle ranch in Walla Walla to majoring in agricultural economics at Washington State University, where his interests turned to the ministry instead of his prior plans of becoming a rancher. “Studying the teachings

of Jesus and being part of a Christian community exposed me to a whole new way of looking at the world and at my life, and filled a spiritual hunger I had felt,” said Summers, who began attending a Lutheran church in Walla Walla after “being introduced to Christ” at WSU. “Out of that experience, I began to have a sense of calling to pastoral ministry, which took my life in a whole different direction. It was transformational.” After graduating from the Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary in Berkeley, Calif., in 1990, Summers served at churches in the eastern Oregon towns of Ontario and Vail for seven years. During this time, he met and married his future wife, Susan, with whom he had son Joshua and daughter Rachel before moving on to Immanuel Lutheran Church in Woodburn, Ore., in 1997. He served the next 15 years in Woodburn, south of Portland. Scott and Susan are buying a home in Arlington, while 16-year-old Rachel gets ready to attend Arlington High School in the fall. In the meantime, “Pastor Scott,” as he’s already known by his parishioners, was installed at the church at 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 3, under the direction of Northwest Lutheran Synod Bishop, the Rev. William Chris Boerger. Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church is part of the Northwest Washington Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.

Scott Summers, pastor at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church in Arlington, looks forward to taking advantage of the area trails and other outdoor opportunities in his new hometown. Engelsen touted Summers’ love of athletics and outdoor activities as interests that make him a good fit for the local community. Just as Engelsen believes that he brings a creative approach to his ministry, so has Summers himself placed priorities on bringing the church’s message to young people and connecting with the community through service, the latter of which he praised parishioners for already taking the lead on. “I’m enthused by the

positive energy of Our Saviour’s congregation,” said Summers of the church, which already provides a community preschool, a cold-weather shelter for the homeless, sack lunches for the Arlington Community Food Bank and volunteer support for Lutheran World Relief projects. Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church is located at 615 E. Highland Dr. in Arlington and conducts regular Sunday services at 10:30 a.m.

Join the fun at the Strawberry Festival T

his is my favorite time of the year as our communities host their annual summertime festivals. SCOTT FRANK While Arlington’s Fourth of July MANAGING Celebration and Fly-In are still EDITOR a month away, Marysville’s 2012 Strawberry Festival begins in less than a week. The Festival kicks off on Saturday, June 9, with two events. The annual Berry Run begins at 7 a.m. at the Smokey Point Plant Farm and the Kids Party in the Park runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Asbery Field. On Tuesday, June 12, the annual Fashion Show takes place at Leifer Manor from noon to 2 p.m. On Thursday, June 14, the always-popular Talent Show will be at the Marysville-Pilchuck High School Auditorium from 6:30-9:30 p.m. The Funtastic Carnival at the Marysville Middle School opens on Thursday and runs through Sunday. The Market at Asbery Field opens on Friday, June 15, and runs through Sunday. Also opening on Friday is a new event — the Kiwanis Beer Garden— which will be open through Saturday. Also on Friday will be the Adult Trike Races. After being canceled last year due to a lack of participants, the races are back this year with some changes and hopefully they’ll have enough participants to go on as scheduled. Saturday, June 16, will be the busiest day of the festival. In addition to the ongoing events, the Car Show and Strawberry Shortcake Eating Contest will be held at Asbery Field. The Rose Planting Ceremony will be at Totem Middle School. The Kiddies Parade begins at 6 p.m., followed by the Grand Parade at 7:30 p.m. and the fireworks at 10 p.m. On Sunday, June 17, the Kiwanis Pancake Breakfast will be at Asbery Field. None of these events would be possible without the tremendous support of a lot of people, organizations and businesses. As we’re out and about enjoying the various activities and events of the Strawberry Festival, we should remember to take the time to thank those who made them possible. We should thank those in Maryfest who work throughout the year to ensure a successful festival. We should thank all of the volunteers who help in so many ways. And we should give a big thanks to all the businesses who give so much through sponsorships and donations. It takes the combined efforts of the entire community to put on a successful festival and Marysville can be very proud of its annual Strawberry Festival and all those who helped make it possible.

What’s going on in the atmosphere?

t’s been a warm winter but not comfortably warm. Call it less cold. Record keepers tell us that average temperatures hereabouts have ranged well above normal and the Farmers’ Almanac and back them up on this. Thermometers don’t lie. It’s been a pretty good year for skiers. Though snow still lingers deep in the Cascades, nighttime freeze and daytime thaw mess up the surface to keep all but hard-core skiers away. If the ski season had a down-side, it would be that most of the snow blew in at temperatures near the freezing level, making it heavy and moist— which is typical of the Cascades. We’re used to dealing with westernslope powder, better described as mashed potatoes. The temperature below the snow was remarkable. Where mountain temperatures at ground level are normally cold enough to stop all flow of water, creeks at Stevens Pass ran below the snowpack all winter. I know because I fell through into some inches of running water. And spent the next twenty minutes being dug out. We see signs of climate change all around. New bugs have moved in. Critters once foreign to the PNW because they couldn’t survive past winters now thrive here. Area bird watchers log sightings of the rare snowy owl, Atlantic puffin, Arctic gull, yellow-billed cuckoo, little blue heron and whooper swan. If that doesn’t impress, when Oregon’s bird watchers weren’t logging rare bird sightings they posted an all time peak in UFO sightings. Weird. I tend to think that, aside from UFOs, all things are connected. For instance, the return of bobcats might have something to do with a recent population surge in wild turkeys, a bobcat favorite. I also believe that wildlife seizes opportunities to move on when conditions are right. Ranges of species shift when climate change adds or subtracts areas where they might thrive.

OPINION

BOB GRAEF

Call this the Adjustment Model for explaining how life forms change their ranges. Adjustment in numbers and adjustment in range. The Adjustment Model suggests that nature gives and takes by degrees and that natural adjustments keeps nature in balance. That works if nature is left to solve natural problems. Trouble is, a rogue species is upsetting nature’s apple cart. Us. We’ve logged off enough forests to change the amount of solar radiation the earth absorbs or reflects. We’ve polluted waters. We’ve so focused on combustion for energy and transportation that we’ve overloaded the atmosphere with carbon dioxide. We fished out Grand Banks cod decades ago and despite enforced closure, it stands today at only 21 percent of what’s necessary for a sustained fishery. And so on. Besides the Adjustment Model, there’s another useful model for describing change in the natural world. Call it the Jenga Model. Jenga is a game that uses fifty-four rectangular blocks stacked in a tower of eighteen layers. Players extract a block at a time from the tower, hoping not to collapse it. Then they balance the extracted blocks on top to add new layers. The tower becomes taller and less stable at each play, eventually collapsing. Just so, humans extract species from nature’s structure by driving them into extinction. At the same time we stack the system with airborne, waterborne and soil pollutants—much like Jenga. The questions we’re reluctant to face up to are, at what point does the system collapse? Or how much change is necessary to force earth’s systems past tipping-points? When warmer

years are usually identified by tenths of degrees, the East Coast just posted an increase of 8.6 degrees over the year before. This appears more like Jenga than the Adjustment Model. Ultra-conservatives back the Adjustment Model while calling predictions for catastrophic climate change, junk science. They must, because if the Democrats win another term, fossil fuel industries could lose certain advantages. It’s not that coal and oil per se are bad. In fact, it’s time to stop demonizing coal and petroleum. The true culprit is combustion. With practical alternatives available, there’s no sense in continuing to burn our way through the 21st Century. We burn too much stuff with the result that the atmosphere has begun to work against us, not for us. Greenhouse gases, higher levels of damaging solar radiation, global warming—these threats to our wellbeing are more serious than terrorists. On the up-side, Germany is facing up to the safe-energy problem by spending 200 billion Euros to replace nuclear plants with alternative energy. On the down-side, Germany is building a number of new coal-fired electricity generators plus supplying some users with natural gas. Even with these trade-offs, 80 percent of that nation’s total energy needs will be met with alternative or renewable sources. It takes fully 8 percent of Germany’s Gross Domestic Product to cover the bill. To put that into perspective, the U.S. spends three times that percentage on defense and only 0.4 percent on energy. At election time, remember that conservatives blocked every one of President Obama’s renewable energy proposals, then charged him with having no energy policy. The nation’s energy future depends on your votes. Comments may be addressed to robertgraef@comcast.net .

Parr Lumber opens in Marysville kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Although Parr Lumber moved into the former Marysville Coca-Cola bottling plant at 7610 47th Ave. NE in January of this year, after three months of renovations, they waited until the weather was a bit nicer to introduce themselves to the community, with an official grand opening celebration and spring barbecue. “Parr Lumber had been looking for a property in North Snohomish County for a couple of years,” said Doug Nelson, manager of Parr Lumber in Marysville, even as a touch of wind and some drops of rain made themselves uninvited guests to the midday meal. “When they saw what this site had to offer, they decided it was a great match.” Nelson pointed to the site’s yard layout, sturdy fence, paved surfaces and well-designed warehouse as attractive features, but he also singled out the surrounding community. “We’re very community oriented at Parr Lumber,” Nelson said on Friday, April 27, as visitors stopped by to grab hot dogs and hamburgers while chatting to a host of home improvement experts in the fields of decking, fencing, railing, windows, doors, siding, millwork, tools and hardware that were on site. “We have good relationships with our vendors, and want to show our customers what they have to offer.” Nelson touted Parr Lumber’s status as a familyowned company since the 1930s, and noted that such family-friendly barbecue events for the public are a relatively common occur-

rence for the company. “We are absolutely open to the public,” Nelson said. “There’s a perception we are wholesalers only, and that is not true. We believe in building relationships with our customers. We’re happy to be in Marysville.” While the Parr company does serve as a wholesale distributor of tools, hardware and supplies for professional builders and independent lumberyards, it also

carries oak, maple, cherry and birch cabinets, as well as a selection of appliances, countertops and hardware, and serves homeowners in addition to professional contractors. Parr Lumber is open Mondays through Fridays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and is closed Saturdays and Sundays. For more information, call 425-259-7277, email mgr28@parr.com or log onto www.parr.com.

honey, gourmet packaged shortcakes, cold drinks, and sliced and sugared strawberries ready to eat and freeze. Mike Biringer, farmer and owner of Biringer Farms says, “The strawberry festival is a great opportunity to see a real working farm up close and support local agriculture.” His wife and co-owner, Dianna Biringer, agrees and adds, “Sign up to enter the second-annual Tasty Jam Party! When you bring your own homemade jam made entirely or in part with Biringer Farm strawberries or raspberries, you will get one free six-box flat of our strawberry or raspberries. The tasting will be on July 21 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Check www.biringerfarm. com for details.” Other farms open on the Red Rooster Route during the Strawberry Festival are Garden Treasures Nursery & Organic Farm, Foster’s Produce and Corn Maze, plus another route partner the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Museum, which is closed on Sundays. This year of annual Red Rooster

Route includes a variety of spring and summer festivals, including Red Rooster Route Days on July 21 and 22 at all the destinations on the Red Rooster Route, the Blueberry Festival on July 28 at Bryant Blueberry Farm & Nursery, the Pozole & Corn Roast Festival at Garden Treasures Nursery & Organic Farm on Sept. 8, Pioneer Days at the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Museum on Sept. 15, and more. As a self-guided tour through the greater Arlington area, the Red Rooster Route is rich with pastoral views and plenty of recreational and u-pick opportunities. Biringer Farm in Arlington is located at 21412 59th Ave. NE and admission is free, although fees exist for some activities and food. The Red Rooster Route is a nonprofit association of small, family-friendly farms in the Arlington area of Snohomish County, which are open to the public during the harvest season.

AHS tennis player headed to California BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — Arlington High School senior Kelsey Ghirardo first picked up a racket in the third grade and has been competing as a part of a tennis team since the sixth grade. Now, as a member of the Lady Eagles, she is graduating after becoming one of the top six players in District 1 and is headed to college at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego this fall. “I caught on pretty quick,” said Ghirardo, of learning the game at a young age. “You don’t know a stroke until you’ve done it 10,000 times.” Ghirardo said she saw the biggest game improvement during her high school years. “I definitely saw a huge improvement from ninth grade to 12th grade,” she said. “I started on the JV team and I won a lot, so then as a sophomore I played the second singles on varsity. This year I played No. 1 and No. 2 on and off.” Tennis is the only sport that Ghirardo has played at the high school, but her time off from the game has not been empty. “I do tennis in the spring and in the fall I am a part of the musical in the drama department,” said Ghirardo.

Ghirardo is also involved with Arlington High School’s competition jazz choir, Jazzmine. “Normally, we have our big show between the musical and tennis,” she said. “I only do one sport because of the other time constraints.” Ghirardo is not only a tennis star, but she is also a stellar performer off-the-court. She was valedictorian this year and has received more than $50,000 in music scholarships from her future university in California. As a member of the National Honor Society, Ghirardo is required to complete 30 hours a year of community service, she has easily tripled that number. “In the past four years I’ve had an average of 100 hours a year,” said Ghirardo. “A bulk of that community service is through my church.” Another portion of her community service is through hosting foreign exchange students. “We have hosted a bunch of foreign exchange students. We had four Japanese students and one Belgian student, which was a lot of fun,” she said. Ghirardo is also involved as an officer with the International Thespian Society at AHS (formerly the Drama Club), the LINK crew (orientation for freshman) and was a team captain for Relay for Life last year. Although her schedule is certainly packed with school, sports

and extracurricular activities, she said that maintaining a perfect GPA was “definitely do-able.” “I had a schedule and I always made sure I had the time to learn the curriculum,” she said. “In a way, having all these things going on kept me studious because I knew exactly what I needed to do.” This fall, Ghirardo is set to enroll at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego and double-major in music and athletic training. “I am very interested in human physiology and plan on implementing that degree into a career rehabilitating injured performing artists,” she said. “Looking back, I’ve always had something for my body, mind and soul. The combination of those three has helped me be who I am and also be successful at what I do.” In addition, to her success at school, she is most thankful for the relationships she has built. “I have great relationships with my teachers they’ve been amazing and really supportive,” said Ghirardo. “The friends I have are the best.” She also wanted to acknowledge her parents for helping her along the way. “Of course my family is wonderful. My family has been really supportive,” she said. “Overall this has been one great big blessing.”

Lakewood golfers make it to state BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

SPANAWAY — Lakewood High School’s girl golfers have had quite the season this year, a season that ended with two

players qualifying for the WIAA State Championship Tournament at the Lake Spanaway Golf Course in Spanaway on May 22 and May 23. Nina Forsell and Kaylee

Lakewood’s Kaylee Diggs, left, and Nina Forsell pose in front of a WIAA State Golf Championships poster at the tournament in Spanaway on May 22.

Diggs both qualified for the state tournament this year. Forsell placed 35th overall in the tournament. She shot a 99 during round one and another 99 in round two for an overall score of 198. Kaylee Diggs made it to state and shot a 102 in the first round. The cutoff for making into round two was 99 — she missed the cut for the second day of competition by three strokes, placing 49th in the state. “Both players finished the season much stronger than I think anyone expected,” said LHS Head Coach Chris Walster. “Our team finished second in the Cascade Conference final standings and second at the Cascade Conference Tournament.” Diggs managed to win medalist honors by shooting a 92 at Snohomish Golf Course for the League Championship Tournament,

which was the first time in Lakewood Girls history. Forsell finished in fourth at the championship with a score of 96. For the District 1 Championship Tournament at Snohomish Golf Course on May 15, Diggs finished in 12th place, qualifying her for the state tournament. Forsell was close behind in 13th place, also qualifying. Forsell, a junior, has been playing golf for as long as she can remember. “I’ve been playing competitively since I was 8 years old,” said Forsell, whose grandparents took her to golf lessons every summer. She’s been on the Lakewood High School golf team since she was a freshman and enjoys watching her own progress. “When I first started I was fifth player and this year I was first player,” she said. “Being on the team makes

me more competitive.” Since she still has one more year to play on her high school team, Forsell is making some big goals for herself. “This year I am third in league standings and I am hoping that next year I will make it to first,” she said. Diggs began playing golf her freshman year at Lakewood, mostly because she felt like participating in a Spring sport. “I play volleyball in the fall and basketball in the winter,” said Diggs. “I thought golf would be fun and not very stressful.” This year marked the first state tournament for both Diggs and Forsell and a new milestone for the Lakewood girls golf team. “This was the first time Lakewood has had two players make it to state,” said Walster.

The weather at the tournament was a little bit less than desirable, however. “It rained a lot. I mean a lot,” Diggs emphasized. “But it was still good.” Forsell agreed. “State was really fun,” she said. “I thought it would be a lot more scary, but a lot of the girls there were girls I’d already played with before.” Forsell and Diggs were not the only Lakewood golfers with serious success on the green this year. “Both [Diggs and Forsell] finished as ‘First Team All Cascade Conference Golfers’ and senior Chelsea Blackwood was named to the second team,” said Walster. “Senior Ashlie Jensen was one of our biggest surprises moving up from junior varsity last year to receiving ‘Honorable Mention-All League’ this year.”

Road closes June 6 for Arlington roundabout ARLINGTON – Construction is set to begin on the intersection of State Route 9 and 172nd Street, south of downtown Arlington, starting June 6. Drivers should expect traffic shifts, detours and slowdowns for the next several months as the intersection is converted from a traffic signal to a roundabout to help improve safety. Contractor crews working for the Washington State Department of Transportation will close the east leg of 172nd Street, where it intersects with State Route 9, early on June 6. It will remain closed into July. Drivers will be detoured to 160th Street for

access to and from SR 9. Both directions of SR 9 will remain open during the closure, but the lanes will be narrowed and shifted to the west side of the intersection to help make room for construction of the east-half of the roundabout. The roundabout is expected to open in the fall to help improve safety for the 16,000 drivers using this intersection every day. Knowing that SR 9 is a heavily-traveled route, WSDOT designed the roundabout to accommodate large trucks, horse trailers and emergency response vehicles. More roundabout information and YouTube driving videos are available on the WSDOT roundabout website at www.wsdot. wa.gov.

ARLINGTON — Although heart disease is often perceived as an “adult disease� it is also the leading cause of death in young athletes. As part of its commitment to making the local schools and community safer, the Nick of Time Foundation is partnering with several local community groups to host a free youth heart screening for all Arlington and Stanwood youth ages 14-24, on Wednesday, June 6 from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. at Arlington High School. According to the American Heart Association, one in every 350 young people has an undetected heart condition. The best way to detect these conditions is through a heart screening consisting of a comprehensive family health history survey and using an ECG and Echocardiograms of the heart. The test is painless and takes about 25 minutes. Current statistics show that sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in exercising youth athletes, happening once every three days in the United States, often with no prior symptoms. Nick of Time Foundation and their partners, UW Medicine and Seattle

CC is an older girl, but seems to be in great condition. She is a bit overweight & would do better if she was on a weight restriction diet. We recommend that you take CC to your vet for an overall health assessment for a senior gal. She is quiet & quite content to just sit around & hang out, however, a bit of encouragement to exercise would do her good. She is ready to go to her new, happy, and healthy home!

If you’re suffering from nerve problems in the arms and legs, you must read about a clinical study that showed...

How 85% of Patients Eliminated Numbness, Tingling or Sharp Pains Numbness, tingling, and pain is an extremely annoying problem. If You Read Nothing Else, Read This: More than 20 million Americans suffer from peripheral neuropathy, a problem caused by damage to the nerves that supply your arms and legs. This painful condition interferes with your body’s ability to transmit messages to your muscles, skin, joints,orinternalorgans.Ifignored or mistreated, neuropathy can lead to irreversible health conditions.Why not get help by those trained to correct the major cause of peripheral neuropathy. Read the full facts on this page.

It may come and go...interrupts your sleep... and even makes your arm or legs feel weak at times. Maybe you’ve even been to other doctors and they claim all the tests indicate you should feel fine.

More Pills Are Not The Solution A common treatment for many nerve problems is the ‘take some pills and wait and see’ method. While this may be necessary for temporary relief of severe symptoms, using them long term is no way to live. Some of the more common drugs given include pain pills, anti-seizure medications, and anti-depressants -- all of which have serious side effects.

The Likely Cause Of Your Problem My name is Dr. Scott Peseau, owner of Arlington Spine Center. I’ve been helping people with neuropathy and nerve problems for more than 16 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 to remove the pressure on the nerves. Due to Federal law some exclusions may apply.

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

By using gentle techniques, I’m able to release the pressure that has built up on the nerve. This allows the nerve to heal and the symptoms to go away. 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 What these studies mean is that you could soon be enjoying life...without those aggravating nerve problems.
