ARLINGTON — “The first time we heard of it, we both wondered, ‘What the heck is a Sound Garden?’” said Jeff Swanson, who nonetheless found himself helping his 14-year-old son, Trey, install the first piece of the Arlington Arts Council’s planned Sound Garden in Legion Park this summer. Trey Swanson was looking for an Eagle Scout project when he contacted city of Arlington Recreation Coordinator Sarah Lopez to see what he could do for the community this summer, but the Sound Garden has been on the Arlington Arts Council’s books for quite a while before that. “We’ve been discussing it since at least 2004,” said Jean Olson, treasurer for the Arlington Arts Council.

“When I first heard about it, I thought that it would be like wind chimes. I didn’t know they were going to be interactive musical instruments.” Although the Swansons just recently installed “The Swirl,” an oversized xylophone that stands straight up and comes with two attached mallets with which to play it, Olson and Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney joined the Swansons in reporting having seen and heard a number of passersby trying their hands at the instrument already. “One person happened to be walking along Centennial Trail, right next to it, and stopped to play for what must have been an hour,” Arney said. “We wanted to SEE SOUND, PAGE 2

EVERETT — While the weather on Saturday, June 30, made much of Naval Station Everett’s annual “Freedom Festival” a soggy affair, the day’s ship tours still filled up their allotments of 40 visitors for each of the larger ships every half hour, and 30 visitors for each of the smaller ships every half hour, drawing more than 1,500 visitors to the decks of the four ships in port, in spite of the rain and the absence of the USS Nimitz depressing those attendance numbers relative to the event’s sunnier years, when its carrier has been in port. Families from the local area and throughout the region made the USS Shoup the most popular destination of

the four ships offering tours that day, as crew members explained aspects of day-to-day operations on board ship with which many civilians were unfamiliar. Petty Officer 3rd Class Lavahita King explained the importance of not wearing rings, wristwatches or other jewelry while raising and lowering the ready boats that are used to recover torpedoes and men overboard. “If those items get caught in the line, they’ll rip your skin off,” King said. “That’d be a bad day for everyone.” Petty Officer 2nd Class Justin Clark explained the inner workings of the computer-guided 5-inch 62-caliber gun near the forecastle of the ship, which fires 20 rounds a minute at a distance of 13 miles.

show Arlington that we were committed to providing quality art, including musical opportunities. It’s fun for kids and families to experience together.” While “The Swirl” cost $6,000, including shipping, the Rotary Club of Arlington has already pledged matching funds of $2,500 toward the next instrument. Arney and Olson agreed with fellow Arlington Arts Council member Marilyn Oertle that drums will probably pop up in Legion Park next. “With the trail passing by this exact spot, it gives kids something to do along the way,” Oertle said. “As we get more pieces, they can really rock out.” Olson and Arney pointed out that the instruments themselves are designed to provide soothing sounds, and are located relatively distant from any residences, so they shouldn’t rock too loudly for the tastes of any local homeowners. For their part, Jeff Swanson estimated that Trey raised nearly $1,000 for materials and equipment to install “The Swirl” with family

and fellow Boy Scouts. The elder Swanson thanked Rex’s Rentals for their equipment, Sherwin Williams for donating paint, Arlington Hardware for donating lumber, Coast Development for providing weatherproofing materials and Ernst for supplying funds for paint rollers and brushes. “I’d never seen anything like this before, but it looks cool,” Trey Swanson said. In addition to other instruments, the Sound Garden will also feature, as a backdrop, an enlarged mural version of a painting by former Arlington Arts Council member Jim Walker, who passed away several years ago. The Swanson family is installing the lumber and plywood frame for the mural. “Walker’s illustration of traditional musicians will create a bright and colorful setting for a growing Sound Garden in the future,” said Lopez, who noted that the Arlington Arts Council Board selected it from their top three favorites at the 2011 Fall into Art Auction last October, which raised almost $10,000. To donate to the Sound Garden, call 360-435-5866 or log onto www.arlingtonartscouncil.net.

FREEDOM FROM PAGE 1 “The computer accounts for the pitch and roll of the ship, the wind and even the temperature of the powder in adjusting its aim,” Clark said. “It’s smarter than we are.” While the Shoup’s “big gun” is capable of shooting down air targets, it’s mostly designed for surface-to-surface warfare. Clark acknowledged that “you can feel it” when it fires, and laughed when asked whether the Shoup would be firing its guns for the Fourth of July. “I wish,” Clark shook his head. Petty Officer 3rd Class Evens Previle warned civilians who moved up to the forecastle not to step over the anchor chains for safety reasons, as he noted that the anchor itself weighs roughly 9,000 pounds and the anchor chain runs about 1,100 feet. “We measure it in 12 shots, running 96 feet each,” Previle said. “We can release eight shots in 10 seconds. The last two shots are yellow and red. If you see yellow, you start to run, because if you see red, you’re dead.”

The USS Shoup received 40 visits every half-hour from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on June 30 as part of Naval Station Everett’s ‘Freedom Festival.’ Children and adults alike appreciated the view from the bridge, with youngsters such as 11-year-old Isaac Shust and 10-year-old Jesse Donk of Marysville taking turns posing for pictures in the captain’s chair, but no photos were allowed in the combat information center, due to its classified data systems. Senior Chief Petty Officer Jason DeGraaf explained that each member of the ship’s crew is assigned to a repair locker that has its own assigned tasks to protect and defend the ship, which led into Fireman Dawnell Franklin and Petty Officer 3rd Class Brandon Clark covering the firefighting gear and procedures that each repair locker member

takes on for such emergencies. “Your self-contained breathing apparatus contains 15-20 minutes of air,” Franklin said, even as Clark pointed out that shipboard firefighters can only fight fires for about five minutes each due to wearing as much as 50 pounds of gear and being hit with steam when they attempt to extinguish fires with their hoses, since the steam is even hotter than the fire itself. Jesse’s dad, Larry Donk, not only took his wife and two boys to Naval Station Everett on June 30, but also has a son in the Marines on the other side of the country. “Right now, he’s giving this same spiel to folks

over on the USS Wasp in Boston,” Larry Donk said of son Ryan, a 2011 graduate of Marysville-Pilchuck High School. Ryan Donk recently gave Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick a tour of the light armored vehicle on which Ryan himself is a gunner, which led Larry Donk to reflect on the importance of the service in general, especially with Independence Day approaching. “We take it for granted that these young men and women sacrifice their time and even their lives for the rest of us,” Larry Donk said. “I want to thank them for that, and to thank Naval Station Everett for giving us a closer look at how they operate.”

Cities host free movies, concerts, theater in the park events,” said Sarah Lopez, Arlington Recreation Coordinator. “Quite a few people show up. It’s a good chance to get outside in the summer, in the community, and watch a good movie. Plus it’s free.” Marysville’s outdoor movie series, Popcorn in the Park, continues as well, with a showing of “Happy Feet 2,” on Friday, July 14, in Jennings Memorial Park. All summer Popcorn in the Park movies take place at the Jennings Park baseball field and begin at dusk. The Marysville Kiwanis Club provides free popcorn at each showing, though families are encouraged to bring blankets, lawn chairs and coolers. The film “Big Miracle” is set to show on Friday, July 20. “As a staff, we like to pick movies together that the general public will enjoy and that are fairly recent and family friendly,” said Burgess. “It will equate to a great time and great family fun.” For more entertainment, the city of Arlington is hosting Shakespeare in the Park, presented by Last Leaf Productions, on Saturday,

July 21, at 6 p.m. in Terrace Park. The group will perform Julius Ceasar as part of their Summer, Bloody Summer Tour 2012. Also scheduled this summer is Arlington’s Outdoor Theater for Kids on Aug. 25 at 4 p.m. in Terrace Park when the Blue Stilly Players present a production aimed

just for children. “It’s a new event and Blue Stilly Players is a new theater group,” said Lopez, who noted that the group would be performing Hansel and Gretel. “They are going to teach a new drama class too, which is only $10 per child.” For more information

Local residents looking for a way to blend outdoor activities and entertainment in their hometown can find several events this summer, sponsored by the cities of Arlington and Marysville, starting this week. The city of Marysville is hosting a free summer concert and movie series, which continues on July 12, when Shameless Hussy, a rock n’ roll and blues band, is set to perform at 7 p.m. at Jennings Memorial Park. “Jennings Park is a wonderful setting to relax and enjoy some great music,” said Shameless Hussy drummer Dan Pakinas. “As a band it is what we enjoy the most about performing.” Based out of Northwest Washington, Shameless Hussy has been performing together for four years, playing songs with great horn sections and backup singers. “We are all dads and moms, and some of us are even grandparents,” Pakinas said. “It is a wonderful thing to be surrounded by such talented and professional people. Definitely a musthear band.” All city of Marysville summer concerts are spon-

A Will and A Way

L

ately I have been meeting more and more families who are fighting a civil rights war that one might have thought had been won decisively four decades ago. It was in 1971 that a group of bold and innovative parents fighting rejection of their children by public schools in Seattle pushed HB 90, the Education for All Act, through the Washington State Legislature. This pivotal legislation requires all public schools in the state to provide equal educational opportunity to all children regardless of ability. The Education for All Handicapped Children Act, modeled after Washington State’s, became a federal law in 1975. Yet here is Deanna sitting in my office just a few weeks ago telling me the story of her son Dylan, a bright young man with Down syndrome and assorted other challenges, who was placed in isolation — essentially solitary confinement — by middle school administrators who misunderstood Dylan’s unique learning style and behaviors. Dylan quite understandably refused to go to school any more. So Deanna embarked on an odyssey that involved postponing her own education for a year, learning to cite chapter and verse from dozens of Washington State laws, assistance from a legal aide nonprofit, and endless hearings and negotiations with school district officials. After 18 months of doubts, tears, anger, the hugs and prayers of friends and family, and (above all) the steely determination of a mother, Deanna won her appeal. The school district was forced by legal settlement to move

Looking deeper than a sales spiel

I

t has been a whole year since I moved. Leaving my Marysville home of 49 years, I moved 4.2 miles southeasterly into a Lake Stevens zip code in a move toward full retirement and curtailed landscape labor. At one time or another, two real estate agents had been involved, each presenting homes that offered different benefits. Memory of their sales pitches popped up when I heard Mitt Romney saying, “This isn’t an election between two candidates!” How true. His statement echoed the difference that separated the two real estate agents’ comments about why this or that new home might be right for me. Picking a new home wasn’t a choice between real estate agents. It was based on finances, location, size, floor-plan, special features, nearness to family, neighbors, security, community services, shopping and more. Since a lot of this stuff lay outside both agents’ expertise it was up to me to figure the best balance. Like Romney indicated, it was more than a choice between two candidates. But the media doesn’t want it that way. Obama said, Romney said. Sound bites in or out of context, most short of identifying each party’s design, methods, history and promise. Today’s GOP may be a little like that of Reagan’s time but nothing at all like Eisenhower’s GOP. A party’s doings are reflections of who’s calling the shots at the moment, so evoked memories of past glories and defeats are meaningless. The manipulators who finance pet candidates’ elections have two distinct agendas. Number one is making pet-candidates electable so they can achieve number two: having government do their bidding. The first is akin to polishing

a home’s curb appeal, a superficial view that leaves a strong impression. The second is engineering laws and policies that direct the nation’s contracts, profits, resources and subsidies into their pockets. It’s all about money. Since neither party has clean hands, voters are left to decide which hands are less-dirty because in today’s political clashes, it’s impossible for either party to emerge totally clean. If one sleeps with dogs, he will rise up with fleas. In American politics, you make deals, and sometimes that means making deals with the devil. Republican architecture is tidy — everything in plumb, all pipes and wires running straight from central control to the troops. Call it government by corporate clout. It’s a disciplined top-down leadership that issues marching orders to senators, representatives and justices. It boasts well-defined goals and a machine fully capable of shaping national opinion. While admirable in efficiency, it falls short of government by the people. The Democratic Party is anything but tidy, harboring a fractious mix of small merchants and manufacturers, small and large labor groups, small ethnic populations, small environmental groups, small charities. And some big components like healers, educators and Hispanics. Unlike the GOP, all have a voice. Romney was so right. It isn’t a

contest between two candidates. It’s a war between two ideologies that diverged across 50 years from near-center positions to become polar opposites. When disinformation is such that hens are duped into voting for the fox, we need knowledge. Like home-buyers who avoid unwise purchases by hiring building inspectors, voters can learn from respected analysts that stand against pressure from either party. Don’t look to newscasters. They and networks prefer heated contests to truth. That’s the way it goes in an industry that lives or dies according to ratings and market share. Along with The Great Race and NASCAR, they cast politics as one more competitive sport. Who’s ahead or behind in polls or who’s raked in the most campaign cash now poses as news. Some political “building inspectors” do tell it like it is. These aren’t party office-holders or TV anchors with hundred dollar haircuts but thinkers committed to reporting what’s important. Norman Orstein works for the American Enterprise Institute, a staunchly conservative thinktank. Thomas Mann is with the Brookings Institute, a venerable centrist organization. In a Washington Post column, Orstein and Mann described the GOP as an insurgent outlier in American Politics because of the “party’s extremism, antagonism to facts and science, hatred of compromise, and complete opposition to the Democrats’ legitimacy.” Orstein is a Republican. Mann writes like an independent. Together, they inspected the Republican house and found seriSEE SPIEL, PAGE 5

To end the routine segregation of children. So simple and yet so complex, this is an issue with a thousand interdependent threads. From our conditioning and fears and the assumptions we make about people, to our longstanding cultural pattern of competition that celebrates survival of the fittest, to the very real constraints of money and space and expertise faced by our public schools, to paradoxical questions of what inclusion versus segregation means for each individual child.

Changing the law was a monumental milestone, but as with so many social justice movements it was not enough. Four decades later, the challenge becomes influencing the consciousness of our community by creating opportunities for people of all abilities to engage each other in learning, work, and play and experience for themselves the extraordinary value that results. People simply need to experience each other and the unique way each of us brings value and evokes value in others.

They wrote that the only way for the GOP to regain its health, vitality and relevance is for voters to punish extremism. Mitt Romney hit the nail on the head. Candidates’

headline-making charges and countercharges are largely meaningless. Instead, voters should be thinking about government’s functional flaws, and that the upcoming election might restore decency to Congress and the Supreme Court.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thanks to the Kiwanis For those of you that were unable to weather the heavy mist on Sunday morning, you missed a fantastic pancake breakfast sponsored by the Kiwanis at Asbery Field Market in the Park for the closing day of Strawberry Festival. They provided an “all you can eat” breakfast of pancakes, scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage, juice and coffee for a very modest price. We were happy to see the pancake breakfast return to the Strawberry Festival this year and do hope it continues in years to come. Thank you Kiwanis. Don and Teri McCann Marysville

Good Law or Bad Law? You Decide. In order to fully understand the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Affordable Health Care Act, one has to understand what the Supreme Court actually is authorized to do under the Constitution. It is only authorized to rule on the “constitutionality” of anything brought before it. Part of the way the Affordable Health Care Act was passed was by telling the people that it was absolutely not a tax, but a “mandate.” What the Supreme Court has said in its ruling and written opinion is that it is not a “mandate,” thus not falling under the “Commerce Clause” of the Constitution, but it is a tax. Many of us

were lied to about what it is! Congress has the right via the Constitution to tax, and it can basically tax anything it wants to. It is a tax in the same way that FICA is a tax withheld from a paycheck to pay that person’s portion of the Social Security tax. What Chief Justice Roberts preserved in the long run, frankly, is the position of the Court to not become an “activist court” by usurping its authority into “law making,” and that is a good thing, in my opinion. Law making is rightly reserved to Congress or the state’s legislature. What the Court and Justice Roberts did not do is tell Americans whether the Affordable Health Care Act is a good law or a poor law or how your politician (pick your side) told you what it might do in the future. Just because something is Constitutional does not inherently make it “good” or “bad” law — it can be either. The Court simply sent it back to Congress who is the law making arm of the federal government. Is it good law or bad law? Do some research and find out for yourself. Courts cannot be used endlessly to right the bad choices the “people” make and/or continue to make. At some point, the “people” must take the responsibility of learning and knowing enough to make wise decisions for themselves in electing the “law makers,” legislators or congresspeople who will make wise and “good” laws.

Poochapalooza returns July 14 Missing ATV rider

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Dog Owners Group is inviting fellow dog owners and their pooches to the sixth annual Marysville Poochapalooza outdoor dog event from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 14, at the Strawberry Fields Athletic Park, located at 6100 152nd St. NE in Marysville, home of the Strawberry Fields for Rover Off-Leash Park. Poochapalooza aims to feature canines at their best and brightest, like a county fair for dogs. A $5 suggested donation to enter provides “wag bags” to the first 400 visitors, with all proceeds supporting the off-leash park maintained by M-DOG. “At Poochapalooza, it’s all about the dogs,” said Leslie Buell, M-DOG president and Poochapalooza founder. Poochapalooza this year will again go high fashion with the popular Fashions and Rescues Runway Show, mixing country charm with urban chic. The show will feature adoptable dogs modeling the latest eye-catching fashions live on the catwalk, rechristened the “dogwalk” for the occasion. Top Seattle

models will escort dogs from six rescue groups. At last year’s premier event, 16 dogs were adopted. The fashion show is free, but limited VIP tickets are available for $10 for special catwalk seating, which also includes a “swag bag,” cupcakes, cake, refreshments and other treats. But there’s more to Poochapalooza than fashion. Plenty of competitions, activities and interactive demonstrations will be staged to enable dogs to try their paws at something new, including dancing, Flyball, wacky pet contests, doggy pie-eating contests, Canine Good Citizen Testing, nail clipping, scent demonstrations and even just taking in live music. Additionally, more than four dozen petrelated vendors will be on site so that attendees can snoop for bargains. The crowd favorite Emerald City K-9 Freestyle Dancers and their talented dogs will return with their musical freestyle canine dancing, that blends obedience, costumed themes, music and dance in ways designed to be visually excit-

ing, and to demonstrate handler and dog teamwork. Seattle FlyDogs will exhibit their love of Flyball, an extreme sport that appeals to dogs that thrive on speed and action. FlyDogs members are certified teachers and trainers, who will provide demonstrations and free introductory evaluations to gauge whether dogs are Flyball naturals. Dogs with hidden talents can enter “Best in Show” contests including Best Kisser, Best Voice, Wackiest Pet Trick and Pooch PieEating Contests. The contest donation cost is $5 for one contest, or $10 for unlimited contests, excluding the Pooch Pie-Eating Contest, which is $10. Winning dogs will receive special ribbons and goodies. Visit the Poochapalooza website at http://poochapalooza.org for forms and the schedule. Catering to their meat and dessert-loving cravings, Poochapalooza is looking for canines with hearty appetites to compete in pie-eating contests scheduled at 12:30 p.m. and 2:45 p.m., with separate divisions for big and small dogs. The pie-eating

contests are sponsored and emceed by Dining Dog Café and Bakery of Edmonds and owner Dorothy Moore. Among the day’s other activities, Canine Good Citizens Testing will be offered to interested fairgoers and their pets, while K9 Nose Work and their dogs will be on site to provide scent demonstrations, showcasing their dogs’ amazing sense of smell. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase from the Marysville Kiwanis Club and other vendors. Parking is free. Rare Birds and Rosemary will provide live music from 4-5 p.m. Buell reiterated that money raised at Poochapalooza will go to support needs at the city’s off-leash park, Strawberry Fields for Rover. The three-acre park draws averages of 12,000 visitors and 17,000 dogs a year. For more information about Poochapalooza, contact Buell at 360-651-0633, email labuell@frontier.com, visit the website at http:// poochapalooza.org or “like” the event on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/ poochapalooza.

TULALIP — Firefighters, police officers and emergency aid crews from Marysville, Tulalip and Snohomish County converged on the woods of Tulalip on Tuesday, June 26, to search for and eventually recover a 20-yearold all-terrain vehicle rider whose family reported him missing after he failed to return from a trip the previous afternoon. Crews retrieved him from the bottom of a ravine in a wooded area about a mile north of the 9900 block of 12th Avenue NW, where he was pinned facedown underneath his four-wheel ATV, after Tulalip Tribal Police officers followed the ATV’s tracks off the trail. “It’s a common dirt-biking area,” said Aaron Reeder, one of the three volunteer firefighters from the Tulalip Bay Fire Department who took part in the rescue efforts. “He wasn’t able to make any noise, at least not enough that any of us would have been able to hear, so it’s a good thing they found his

riding trail.” Reeder described the slope as angled slightly downward from the road for about 70 yards, at which point it makes a steeper drop-off. He praised the team of more than a dozen workers who contributed to the man’s safe return, from the Marysville medics who were able to supply IVs on site to the personnel of Marysville Fire District Ladder 62 and Snohomish County Search and Rescue, who pulled him out of the ravine with high-angle equipment in a basket with a rope.

“Originally, we thought they were going to have to airlift the kid, but he was pretty tough,” Reeder said. “He was transported by ground to the Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett.” Although the missing man was conscious and is expected to make a full recovery, the fact that he spent 11 hours trapped under his ATV, outside and overnight, makes him very lucky to have made it out alive, according to Reeder.

West All-Stars beat East, 25-13

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — As rain pounded the field at Twin Rivers Park on Saturday, June 30, some began to wonder if the North Counties Christian Sports Fellowship League All-Star Game would carry on — but carry on it did. Despite the soggy conditions, dozens of softball players came out to represent their teams in the fifth-annual All-Star Game and skills competition, which included a home run derby, running competition and throwing competition. “There are 20 teams in the league, so for the All-Star game we just split them into 10 and 10 for West versus East,” said William Frankhouser, game official. “Each team in the league chooses two players to represent them in the All-Stars, one male and one female.” The NCCSFL consists of teams from individual churches in the area. “We used to be called GACSFL for ‘Greater Arlington Church Sports Fellowship League’ but now we have teams from Stanwood, Marysville and Lake Stevens,” said Frankhouser. The sports league organizers are hoping to incorporate more than just softball in their competition,

and polled their participants for their thoughts. “People liked basketball, volleyball and dodge ball,” said Frankhouser. Eliza Malmberg, of the Smokey Point Community C team, loves being involved in the NCCSFL. “This is my fifth year playing,” she said. “I’ve been to the All-Star Game two times. I love how much fun it is, our team is really a hoot. We’re the silliest team here. But I also love the competition.” Malmberg took first place in the women’s running competition with a final time of 14.76. She was also first in the women’s throwing competition. The men’s throwing competition winner was Howie Phillips, of the East All-Stars, who was also the winner of the men’s home run derby. The women’s home run derby winner was Courtney Perrine. Alex Olin placed first in the men’s speed competition, with a record-breaking 11.36 final time, although his prelim time was 11.08. Due to the heavy rain between prelims and finals, most competitors’ scores were slightly better during prelims. The All-Star Game began shortly after 1 p.m. when it was hats-off for Diedre Smith’s national anthem performance and Arlington City

Council member Ken Klein’s throwing of the first pitch. The East All-Stars won the coin-toss and opted to play the home team, which meant that game official and West All-Stars’ Eric Mitzelfeldt was first to bat, hitting a single to start off a bases-loaded top of the first that ended in two runs scored for the West All-Stars Team — a team that had never before won an AllStars game. The strong beginning was followed up with more scores in the top of the second inning when Frankhouser hit his first of two home runs of the game, but the East All-Stars battled back to score in the bottom of the second. The West All-Stars went into the third inning with a one-point lead but left with an eight-point lead after scoring seven runs and shutting out the East batters. The West led every inning in runs-scored except for the fifth, when the East All-Stars managed to score six runs to bring the score up to 15-9. The West maintained their lead until the end of the ninth when the game ended in a 25-13 victory for the West All-Star team.

“This league is a great way to build fellowship with other churches and other community members,” said Frankhouser. “We

get to come together and rally around the community.” The All-Star Game hosted an information table with pamphlets, cards and flyers from local businesses in Arlington. “We really like to help out our local businesses and we also really

want to thank the locals who helped sponsor us today,” said Frankhouser. The game was sponsored by Rainier Auto Glass and Xtreme Services LLC. For information on the NCCSFL, visit their website at www.NCCSFL.org.

Volleyball camp serves summer fun BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

Volleyball camper Mikeyla Chambers, 7, is coached by Lakewood High School senior Danielle Small during the Marysville Parks and Recreation Ultimate Volleyball Summer Camp on June 27.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood High School Girls Volleyball team is doing more than practice this summer, they are helping to coach younger players as well. The Marysville Parks and Recreation Department held a volleyball camp for girls from 7 to 12 years old, at the Lakewood High School gym from June 25-28. “We really stress the fundamentals,” said LHS Head Coach Tasha Kryger, also a camp coach. “It’s very cool to see how they improve from the beginning of the camp to the end.” The elementary and middle school girls were paired almost one-to-one with volunteer LHS volleyball players to help with individual learning. And the young girls weren’t the only ones who benefited from the learning process — the high schoolers gained experience from the coaching process.

“It is really great for our girls because it makes them look like role models,” said Kryger. “We just finished our summer camp, so this is a chance for them to reinforce what they learned and use it in practice.” The Parks and Recreation Ultimate Volleyball camp is a fundraiser for the Lakewood team, and those funds go straight to their Gold Medal Squared Elite Volleyball Training Camp where college coaches and players train the girls in a four-day, 8 a.m.- 5 p.m., intense training session. “It’s very intense volleyball,” said Kryger. “And we have it here to keep costs low and so more of our players can attend.” This year 27 LHS players made it to the Gold Medal Squared camp. Between 23 and 26 girls enrolled in the Parks and Recreation Ultimate Volleyball camp, so there was no shortage of coaches from whom they could seek help. Brooke Forsell has been playing volleyball for three

years and this is her first year participating in the ultimate volleyball summer camp. “I really like it,” she said. “I signed up because I want to make it to the eighth grade team and I want to keep getting better so I can make it in high school.” Forsell first gained interest in the sport when one of her friends who played told her how fun it was. “I’ve been playing at the Boys & Girls Club for years now,” she said. She has felt that the camp has helped her get better, and also been a fun way to kick off the summer. “I like the camp, I like the games we play,” said Forsell. “They are fun games and not always volleyball related. But I also like the serving games.” For those interested in playing volleyball at Lakewood High School next year, the team is holding open gyms throughout July on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Lakewood High School.

ARLINGTON — While sudden storms knocked out power for thousands throughout Snohomish County on Saturday, June 23, the National Weather Service reported that a “straight-line wind event” — similar to a tornado, but without the circular motion — struck approximately 10 miles northeast of Arlington on Jim Creek Road, taking out a path of trees about 100 feet in width and roughly half a mile in length before it dissipated. Tiffanie Pearson owns property on both sides of the Jim Creek Road, close to six miles east of Trafton and one mile from the Jim Creek Naval Station. That Saturday afternoon, she and her 70-year-old aunt happened to be out in the family barn when they noticed the powerful onset of the storm. “I told my aunt, ‘We don’t have storms like this,’” Pearson said. “There was a sound like a thunder crack, but way louder, which I think was the microburst. It sounded like a jet plane,

EVERETT — The Port Gardner Vintage Auto Club recently presented more than $6,000 in funds to representatives of various area community groups, as proceeds from last year’s Arlington Drag Strip Reunion and Car Show, and is already gearing up for this year’s reunion and car show.

According to the National Weather Service, a ‘straight-line wind event’ took out a path of trees about 100 feet in width and roughly half a mile in length approximately 10 miles northeast of Arlington on June 23. now.” The National Weather Service estimated winds to be near 40 miles per hour, with some higher gusts for a period of 15 minutes. While Pearson’s power went out at about 2 p.m. on June 23 due to downed power lines, it was up and running again by 8 a.m. on Sunday, June 24. “It was just very unusual,” Pearson said. “I’ve lived here for 40 years and never seen anything like this happen.”

and the barn was in the way so we couldn’t see it, but we could hear tons of trees crashing down.” Pearson realized that any one of those trees could come down on the barn, so she led her aunt to the basement as fast as they could go. “The trees missed the barn by about 100 feet, but that’s still too close for comfort,” Pearson said. “There’s a swath of about 200 yards where the woods are all gone and open to the creek

Stilly Valley Genealogical Society offers new services BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

and handicapped places. Call 360-435-4838 for more information. On Saturday, July 14, the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society will conduct a garage and lawn sale from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., at 215 S. French Ave. in Arlington, next to the old Arlington High School. In conjunction with its July 10 presentation by Baylor, the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society is also pleased to announce that it is the newest FamilySearch affiliate library, which means that

patrons of the Society’s library will have greater and more convenient access to the massive amount of genealogical resources available through FamilySearch. FamilySearch is the world’s largest repository of genealogical records and manages the well-known Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah. “As an example, FamilySearch has filmed more than 60 percent of the civil registration birth, marriage and death records of Italy,” said Shirley Case, publicity chair for the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society. “If you have Italian ancestry, chances are you will be able to extend your Italian research by conveniently using the FamilySearch films through the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society.”

Family researchers will be able to access the billions of birth, marriage, death, census, land and court records of genealogical significance from more than 130 countries by ordering film to be sent to the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society at 215 S. French Ave. in Arlington for $5.50 a microfilm. Once the film arrives, patrons will be able to use the microfilm readers at the Society’s library to peruse it. Library staff can help patrons see what films are available, place film orders and answer research questions. The Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society was founded in 1985 and obtained nonprofit status a year later. Its library includes thousands of books, microfilm and microfiche sets, and

Internet access to prepaid genealogy web sites. Its members have gathered historical information pertaining to the northern part of Snohomish County and the Stillaguamish Valley, as well as its native populations and early settlers. The collection also contains material for all U.S. states and many foreign countries. This information is available to members and visitors during regular library hours. To speak to a live librarian, just call the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society’s library at 360-435-4838 on Tuesdays from noon to 4 p.m., Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. At other times, you can leave a message, by phone or via email at svgs. wa@frontier.com, or visit its website at www.stillygen.org.
