Pioneers celebrate centennial picnic

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Association is still kicking up its heels after 100 years, celebrating its centennial reunion and “Pioneer Picnic” on Sunday, Aug. 19, in the Pioneer Hall.

The annual picnic is a tradition now maintained by the second- and third-generation descendants of the original pioneer families who first gathered in a grove of trees on the Schloman farm for the event.

“It got rained out and was held in the A.O.U.W. Hall instead, though,” Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Association President Myrtle Rausch

said.

The presence of politicians and other dignitaries from throughout Washington state pushed the attendance numbers for those early picnics into the hundreds.

“The picnic in 1914 hosted 800,” Rausch said.

Just as previous years of the picnic afforded attendees annual opportunities to catch up with old friends and their accomplishments, mainly in the fields of farming and logging early on, so did this year’s centennial picnic summarize the achievements of the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Association as a whole, which has SEE PIONEERS, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — The third annual Back2School Rally at Presidents Elementary drew an estimated 800 attendees on Sunday, Aug. 19, as local families in need of supplies to start the school year packed the playground to line up for their backpacks that afternoon.

Event coordinator Brianna Johnson, the children’s pastor at the Arlington Assembly of God Church, explained that backpacks containing school supplies were made available not only to the 300 pre-registrants for this year’s event, but also to as many as 70 walk-ins.

In addition to the nearly 100 volunteers who helped put the event together, Back2School Rally organizers also named the Arlington Assembly of God Church and the Rotary Club of Arlington as Gold Star sponsors for donating $1,000 each, just as the Kiwanis CLUB of Arlington was named

a Silver Star sponsor for donating $500. The Northwest Hair Academy of Mount Vernon and JCPenney also donated free back-toschool haircuts to the children of families who attended the Back2School Rally.

“I cannot say ‘thank you’ enough to our generous community,” said Arlington School District Superintendent Dr. Kris McDuffy, who was joined by several teachers and staff members of Presidents Elementary and other Arlington schools. “I also want you to know that we have a fantastic group of compassionate and dedicated professionals who are ready to help you kick off the 2012-13 school year.”

Johnson and her fellow volunteers handed out coffee mugs to each of the school staff members who were present, to show their appreciation to them for “investing in what’s important,” a theme Johnson returned to when speaking to the families before they received their backpacks and school sup-

Along the way, Rausch and Kraetz recalled how Kent Prairie Elementary became the first school in Arlington, “which I believe taught more Native than white children at first,” according to Rausch, and the Grimm farm acquired the first milking machine in Snohomish County.

After Carl Moll led a moment of silence for the Association’s departed members, Dick Prouty presented Myrtle and Marty Rausch with a framed sign to honor the Association’s 100 years, as well as the hard work of all the volunteers who keep it running.

Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert continued the annual tradition of deliv-

ering a State of the City address to the Association, acknowledging the city’s $700,000 budget deficit for next year due to declines in sales tax revenues, while at the same time pointing to recent growth in the local industrial and manufacturing sector.

“If I ever say we need to do more with less, please slap me,” Tolbert said. “Nobody can do more with less. You only do less with less. We’re looking at what we do and how we do it, to try and make it more efficient.”

To that end, Tolbert cited former Mayor Margaret Larson’s praise of volunteerism by crediting volunteers such as the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Association with improving the community’s quality of life and making it more attractive to new residents and businesses alike.

The meeting wrapped up with the recognition of the 99-year-old Helen Starr as the oldest native-born woman in the Stillaguamish Valley, 91-year-old Dan Grewe as the oldest nativeborn man, and 68-yearsmarried Sylvia and J.Y. Dycus as the longest-married couple with one born in the Valley.

“We can always use more volunteers,” said Myrtle Rausch, who noted that the Pioneer Museum served 620 visitors over the past year and approximately 20,500 since its doors opened.

The Pioneer Hall and Museum are located at 20722 67th Ave. NE in Arlington.

If you are like most people, you have been on a quest since the day you were born.

Deep down inside, you sense there must be more to life than what you can touch, feel, hear or see.

While our nation’s politicians argue and posture about problems in the economy and threats overseas, the bigger questions in life are overshadowed!

For 22 years Harvest Crusades has been invited to bring the gospel into cities around the world. This year Harvest Ministries has expanded the outreach boundaries to all across the nation. Currently, there are over 1600 host sites participating in the historical one-day Harvest America event. Streamed in live from the Harvest Crusade in Anaheim, California, Pastor Greg Laurie will be looking at the most important questions in life and then looking to the one Person in all of history who has provided answers --answers that have satisfied the souls of millions!

We at Calvary Chapel Marysville would like to extend an invitation for you to join us on August 26th for Harvest America. This is a free event and all are invited. Starting at 3:00pm, the afternoon will include Bar-B-Q, live music and a live stream presentation

dedicated itself to upholding the legacy and contributions of their forebears to the development of the Stillaguamish Valley.

Not only did attendees receive a presentation of a book that’s compiled a pictorial review of the Valley’s history from 1912-2012, but they also got to check out the artifacts preserved in the Pioneer Museum.

In between the potluck lunch and the Association’s annual meeting and program, the latter of which included elections of offi-

cers for the Association, a number of Association members dressed in punthemed costumes for a short skit poking fun at the Midwestern heritage that many pioneers share, after which Rausch and local historian Loren Kraetz touched upon a few red-letter dates in the Association’s history.

“In 1916, the picnic moved to Nancy Birkenmeier’s land,” Rausch said. “In 1924, we held it at the Pioneer Hall. In 1934 the old stump was moved from downtown Arlington to here, and most of the trees you see outside the Hall were planted between 1945-53.”

More recently, the Association opened its Pioneer Museum in 1988, established its veterans memorial outside of

Sittin Pretti cruises into Arlington

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Close to 250 cars, trucks, hot rods and dragsters returned to the Arlington Airport for the annual Sittin Pretti Summer Slam car show Saturday, Aug. 18, as auto enthusiasts from across the state and beyond turned out to help out a local community organization.

Sittin Pretti President Shawn Altermott, who grew up in Marysville, expects this year’s Summer Slam to raise between $3,000 to $4,000 for the Arlington Boys & Girls Club, a feat it’s consistently managed for the past few years.

“The turnout is actually a little lower this year,” Altermott said. “Some of that is just the scene in general, and how it’s been impacted by the economy, but we’ve also got the show in Las Vegas coming up, which is the biggest in the world for this type. We should still be able to give about the same amount we do each year, though, because there’s no profit made here. It all goes back into the local community.”

Marysville’s David Wade noted that the crowds were a bit lighter this year, since he usually sees a few fellow Ford Model A owners, but this year he joked that, at the age of 73 and with a 1931 Model A, “I’m probably the oldest guy and the oldest car here.”

Wade, a former chief master sergeant in the Air Force whose car reader board bears his rank, was forced to replace everything but the cab and body on his ‘31 Ford in order to meet modern safety specs affordably. As it stands, the car has been appraised at $125,000, even though he knows he’s invested much more than that in it, which is why one of its paint colors is so fitting.

“It’s actually called ‘money green,’” Wade laughed. “I always wanted a hot rod. Anyone can have a new car, but even if you have the same make or model of a given classic car as someone else, it’s still not the same car.”

Mike Garcia and Cesar Tepale came all the way from Des Moines, Wash., to show off their spiritually

matched set of cars. Garcia’s 1978 Chevrolet Unity bears the name “Redemption” in its paint job, while Tepale rechristened his Buick Regal the “Buick Evil.”

“She’s not a car show lady just yet,” Garcia said of his Chevy, whose two-year build was only recently completed. “My goal is to get her four feet in the air, though.”

Garcia’s Chevy is a “hopper,” equipped with a single pump and eight car batteries to make it bounce.

As for Tepale’s “Buick Evil,” not only does its name appear hidden in all sorts of spots between the front and rear bumpers, but so do an assortment of painted skulls and an appropriately diabolical design on the underside of the hood.

“The devil’s face appears in pin-striping on the back, and the front hood has a cathedral in flames,” Tepale said. “It’s just evil enough.”

Just as Garcia loves the lines of old Chevys, so too does David Krouse of Mountlake Terrace love the design of Datsuns. And like Tepale, Krouse’s 1977

Marysville’s David Wade has invested so much money in his 1931 Ford Model A that its pinstripes and engine are literally “money green.”

Datsun Longbed 620 features a fantasy mural on the inside of its hood.

“I gave the artist free reign on the painting, except for the girl who’s in

the center of the canvas,” Krouse said. “This is a great show. I’ve been coming here for years. I like supporting more local shows, and I’m good friends with all the

guys who put it on. Being the Datsun guy helps me stand out from the norm.”

“Car guys have wonderful camaraderie,” Wade agreed.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Coal dust is a problem Mr. Graef, Thank you for taking the time to write your editorial in The Globe recently. I completely agree with your very sound conclusion. It’s absurd to ship our natural resources to our biggest economic competitor so they can use them in way that endangers us.

But I feel the need to correct your assertion that “the dust argument is empty.”

Coal dust is not dumped in at the beginning of the trip and left on its own to blow away in the early part of the train’s journey. During the trip, the engine’s vibration, the movement of the hitches between cars, the rumbling of the wheels down the track and all the other movements of the train contribute to a steady vibration in the coal bed that grinds the surfaces of the coal pieces into a fine dust that is blown off the train and

into our town and our lungs as soon as it is created. This is cause of the hazard that people are very rightly objecting to. It’s such a significant volume that barge operators are now adding airtight lids to their fleets. The volume of coal dust that is prevented from blowing away is worth more than enough to pay for the very expensive hatch system.

But more importantly, how many more jobs will we lose to China when we empower them to compete against us by giving them our coal?

Instinctively, we all know it will more than offset a few hundred dock workers and a few hundred more temporarily employed construction workers. In the end, this will cause a net loss of jobs for us. The U.S. hasn’t been a colony for 200 years, why are we trying to create a colonial economy? American raw materials belong in America.

Enforcing environmental laws is key to salmon recovery

F

or many years we have said that enforcing existing state and federal pollution laws is one of the most effective actions we can take to recover salmon in western Washington and protect tribal treaty rights. It sounds like maybe we are finally being heard.

The owner of a Pierce County construction company pled guilty recently to the first criminal charges for stormwater pollution ever filed in western Washington.

Under a plea bargain, the owner agreed to pay $750,000 in fines and other costs for violating the federal Clean Water Act under charges brought by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Between 2007 and 2011 the construction company ignored state and federal environmental protection laws and seriously damaged salmon habitat at a project site near Sumner, said Tyler Amon of the EPA Criminal Investigations Division. “This rogue developer knowingly, and repeatedly, chose profit over protection,” he said.

“This plea serves as notice to our regional developers … these are serious environmental crimes that will be vigorously pursued.”

Polluted stormwater runoff is one of the biggest obstacles to salmon recovery and the cleanup of Puget Sound. Runoff from parking lots, construction sites, roads and other sources flushes many pollutants into wetlands, streams

BEING FRANK

BILLY FRANK JR. and rivers that feed Puget Sound, the second largest estuary in the United States.

We are losing salmon habitat throughout western Washington faster than we can restore it.

Protecting existing habitat is much less costly than paying to restore it after the damage is done. Habitat protection is the most important action needed in the short term, according to the Puget Sound Chinook Salmon Recovery Plan developed by the state and tribal salmon co-managers and adopted by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). However, NMFS’ 2010 review of the recovery plan found that habitat is still declining and protection efforts need improvement.

We have reached similar conclusions through the 2012 State of Our Watersheds report that will be released next month. Almost three years in the making, it is the most comprehensive report to date on the status of salmon habitat in the region.

The report brings together

decades of data collected by tribes, and state and federal agencies to help paint a picture of watersheds across western Washington. We tracked key habitat indicators in watersheds across the region to help gauge just how we’re doing when it comes to habitat protection and restoration, and what we need to do fix the main habitat barriers to salmon recovery.

We hope the EPA means what it says and that this is the beginning of a broader effort to finally truly enforce environmental laws to protect salmon habitat. That’s a key recommendation in our Treaty Rights at Risk initiative aimed at encouraging the federal government to lead a more effective and coordinated salmon recovery effort. You can learn more at our website at www.treatyrightsatrisk. org.

Salmon recovery begins and ends with habitat — good, plentiful habitat that can produce an abundance of fish for all of us. Our watersheds are living things, and we must stop their bleeding — the loss and damage of salmon habitat — if we ever hope to gain ground on salmon recovery. Aggressive enforcement of existing environmental laws to protect salmon is a good place to start.

Billy Frank Jr. is the chairman of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission.

Chamber barbecue draws local chefs kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — The Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce aimed to make Smokey Point live up to its name once more, as five cooking teams entered nine different types of food between them in the Chamber’s barbecue cook-off on Saturday, Aug. 18.

The barbecue competition in the parking lot of the Whidbey Island Bank, near the Chamber’s offices, was joined by a two-day marketplace street fair in the adjacent parking lot of the Arlington Wal-Mart on Aug. 18-19.

Chamber Managing Director Mary Jane Harman described the cook-off and marketplace as experiments that succeeded well enough to continue. Although this year’s barbecue was not officially sanctioned by the Pacific Northwest Barbecue Association, it followed the PNWBA rules and did well enough that the Chamber is already in talks with the Association to team up on next year’s event.

“All three judges were so blown away by the wonderful flavors, they said it was like a having a party in your mouth,” Harman said.

Washington LawnScapes, which has offices in both Arlington and Marysville, sent Jaime Martinez to the cook-off, where he presented his family’s six-genera-

tions-old recipe for carne asada.

“Timing is everything,” Martinez said. “If you go easy, it tenderizes it, but if it’s too hot, or you let it burn for too long, that’s a mistake.”

John Locantore of Bam BBQ & Catering in Marysville won fourth place for his pork, and noted the subjectivity of barbecue tastes as he prepared his plates.

“It depends a lot on what area of the country you’re in,” Locantore said. “The key is to keep it simple. You want your spices and rub to enhance the flavor of your meat, not overwhelm it. I think barbecue’s about to hit it big like coffee stands have done.”

Dan Fullen of DJ’s BBQ, also in Marysville, won third place for his chicken, and credited the strength of his marinade as the secret to his success.

“There’s so many different ways you can smoke the meat,” said Fullen, who also submitted pork and beef ribs. “We prefer to use hickory, pecan and cherry. But the marinade is what makes it moist and tender.”

Roxanne Ferrera’s chicken won second place for Lightin Logs & Smokin Hogs BBQ, yet another Marysville team, and she advised aspiring barbecue chefs to exercise patience.

“Slow and steady,” Ferrara said, as she cooked bar-

“Don’t rush it. This is my first barbecue competition, so I’m sticking with chicken because it’s simple, and making sure it looks mouthwatering even before it goes in their mouths.”

Bill Hoerner of Lily Blue Barbecue in Stanwood won the grand prize for his filet mignon, although he also submitted pork tenderloin and stuffed chicken.

“It was beautifully presented and melted in your mouth,” Harman said.

Jaime Martinez of Washington LawnScapes, which has offices in both Arlington and Marysville, prepares carne asada for the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce’s Aug. 18 barbecue cook-off.

“Overall, it was all three judges’ first choice for appearance, tenderness, texture and taste.”

Between the barbecue cook-off and marketplace street fair, the Chamber

drew an estimated 250 attendees over the weekend.

“It wasn’t nearly as big as the downtown Arlington Street Fair, but they’ve been around for many years,” Harman said. “We hope

one day to have our event become as big and successful as that event is. We’ve made a lot of new friends and vendors at this event, and hope to double its size for next year.”

‘I Heart Marysville’ Chamber debuts Business After Hours cleans up schools, fields kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — The Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce’s first official Business After Hours meeting also served to introduce the community to the Chamber’s new offices, as well as the temporary location for a longtime Arlington merchant.

Roughly a dozen attendees stopped by the Chamber’s offices on Thursday, Aug. 16, from Allstate, Dignity Memorial, the Granroth Insurance Agency, Mountain State Fitness and Nutrition, and Pacific Learning Solutions, while Debbie Whitis, a.k.a. “The Purse Lady” of Arlington, showed off the corner of the Chamber’s offices that currently serves as her shop’s home.

“It’s a small group now, but we’re just getting started,” said Michelle Wiley, one of the Ambassadors of the Chamber, who led the Aug. 16 Business After Hours. “We’ve made it the third Thursday of every month — the same day on every month — so that people will hopefully remember.”

The Ambassadors are a volunteer committee within the Chamber, and their goal is for the Business After Hours meetings to take place on the third Thursday

?

of every month, from 5:30-7 p.m. at the site of a different local business each month, which would provide light snacks or appetizers, and perhaps even wine or beer, depending on the business in question.

These Business After Hours meetings will offer not only door prizes, but also networking opportunities. Each business that brings a door prize will be given a one-minute period to promote themselves to their fellow attendees, but providing such door prizes is not necessary to attend or network at the meetings.

Wiley reported that the Holiday Inn Express of Marysville, Granroth Insurance Agency of Smokey Point and Weller Funeral Home of Arlington have all agreed to host future Chamber Business After Hours meetings. She expects that the Business After Hours meetings will soon have enough hosts to see them through the end of 2012, although she’s still encouraging local businesses to participate as either hosts or attendees of the meetings.

“We also wanted to take this time to promote the Visitor Information Center at our Chamber offices,” Wiley said on Aug. 16. “We could use volunteers here as well. We had 16 walk-ins

today, which is our biggest daily total of the month. I’m not sure how many people realize what a great resource they have here, but as they get to know our new location, I’m hoping they’ll learn that as well.”

According to Donna Leifer, a regular volunteer at the Chamber’s Visitor Information Center, questions about hiking and walking trails are at least as frequent as those regarding local shopping opportunities.

“We actually have maps that show us those trails, not only in Arlington and Darrington, but also Stanwood and Granite Falls,” Leifer said. “We’re a Snohomish County Visitor Information Center, so we’re here to promote the whole region, not just Smokey Point or Arlington.”

The ArlingtonSmokey Point Chamber of Commerce offices are located at 4126-B 172nd St. NE in Arlington and are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Mondays through Fridays.

The next Chamber after hours will take place from 5:30-7 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 20, but according to Wiley, two businesses are currently vying to host it, so the location has yet to be determined.

Wondering How to get Started

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Less than a couple of weeks after complaints about unkempt schools were made in Marysville, close to 100 volunteers descended upon Grove Elementary and Marysville-Pilchuck High School, as well as an assortment of local parks and Little League fields, to show how much they care about their community.

“I Heart Marysville,” a campaign led by the Marysville First Assembly Church, worked volunteers for full-day shifts from Monday, Aug. 6, through Friday, Aug. 10, at Grove Elementary to clear out thistles and weeds, as well as trim back and tend overgrown landscaped plants.

At M-PHS, teams repainted the building exteriors, while the Little League fields’ dugouts were reroofed and repaired, and their scoreboards were cleared of graffiti. While the Marysville School District supplied beauty bark and trucks to collect waste, in addition to supervision from maintenance staff, the actual labor was conducted by crews of volunteers who were often young enough to be students themselves, albeit not quite young enough to be attending Grove Elementary.

“The schools can’t do it for themselves,” said Bailey

Bailey Downey, Emily Hoot and Natalie Cormier dump weeds and brush clippings from Grove Elementary into the Marysville School District’s collection truck on Aug. 9.

Downey, 13, when asked why she sacrificed her summer vacation to sweat in the sun.

“It’s good to do work for the community,” agreed Natalie Cormier, 12, as they joined 12-year-old Emily Hoot in dumping weeds and brush clippings into the district’s truck.

Evan Westfield, 19, and Joshua Harris, 17, both believe that such works are ways of putting their religious beliefs into practice.

“We show God’s love by serving the community,” Westfield said.

“It really is, ‘What Would Jesus Do?’” Harris said.

“It’s up to us to make

these kids feel welcome, in their schools and on their play fields,” said Cody Hjort, 15. “We have to show some initiative, because we’re the older kids, so we’re setting the example for them.”

Marysville First Assembly Children’s Pastor Fawnda Faucett emphasized that this week of cleanup was planned as far back as October of last year, so the timing of its start with the news stories about Grove was purely coincidental.

“Our church is part of this community,” Faucett said. “We live here, work here and send our kids to school here, so we want it to look better.”

AHS Class of ‘42 holds reunion

ARLINGTON — Arlington High School’s graduating class of 1942 originally boasted 68 members, but that number has dwindled down to about a dozen survivors in the decades since.

Those who remain still make a point of getting together every once in a while, though, which is how the Denny’s Restaurant at Island Crossing found itself hosting the 70th class reunion of the AHS Class of ‘42 on Tuesday, Aug. 7.

Ruth Yost — one of the three “Ruths” in the group — explained that the Class of ‘42 had previously met for their 50th, 60th and 65th reunions as well, and emphasized that the number who were able to attend the 70th reunion is not the same as the number of those who are still alive.

“Shirley Cox is in

Ruth Yost’s husband Harry and Ruth Wayt’s husband Clarence, both of whom passed on in 2009, also served in the fleet together.

World War II fell under current events rather than history when this class was still attending high school, and the school newspapers that a few of them brought to the reunion included unflattering caricatures of Adolf Hitler and the Axis powers.

Charles Haddenham, one of the students listed on the Feb. 24, 1942, issue of “The Eagle,” was one of the reunion’s attendees, along with his wife Ruth and their son Tim. “I remember her hair used to be red,” Bud Peterson said as Laverne Mangum entered the room.

“All our hair has changed color,” Stan Kazen said.

“All the hair that’s left, anyway,” Peterson acknowledged.

When the Cottages in Marysville open, they will be able to serve as many as 50 memory care residents in their four cottages. room, as well as individual and two-person bedrooms for its residents. Each bedroom features a glass-front “memory box” outside of its door, which residents and families can fill with memorabilia, and each cottage is staffed 24/7 by two nurses each per shift.

“The activities that are part of memory care are designed to help the residents feel a sense of accomplishment,” Johnson said. “We don’t do bingo or anything that’s too challenging for them to recall. We allow them to live in the moment, whatever that moment might be. If they happen to be in 1948, we’ll go with that, rather than trying

to correct them. Our care is geared toward their needs.”

Karen Steward, one of the nurses at the Cottages at Marysville, explained that the residents’ activities are not overly structured, so they can maintain a sense of independence, by choosing to participate as they wish.

“We engage with them personally, to create moments of joy for them,” Steward said.

“Their families are also welcome to pop in anytime,” Johnson added.

The Cottages at Marysville are located at 1216 Grove St. For more information, call 360-436-6028 or log onto www.cottagesatmarysville. com.

“Lois Langsjoen planned to be here, but she had to go to the hospital just recently.”

Everyone in the room agreed that the area has become much more populated, at the same time that they lamented the loss of larger department stories from downtown Arlington. Many also expressed how fortunate they feel to have survived the war that shaped their young adult years.

“We were the first class to graduate during WWII,” Dorothy Caroll said. “We didn’t know if we would get to graduate.”

Indeed, many of the school’s teachers and other staff members were drafted into the military, and many members of the Class of ‘42 joined the service as well.

Peterson went into the Army, while Haddenham and Kazen both went into the Navy.

MARYSVILLE — The Cottages at Marysville look forward to opening their doors in late August or early September, and while Marysville offers a number of senior care centers already, the Cottages at Marysville are unique in that they provide memory care services, according to Kim Johnson, executive director of the Cottages at Marysville.

“We specialize in serving those with memory issues by giving them a homelike setting with one-on-one attention,” Johnson said of the Cottages at Marysville, which touts a capacity for 50 residents, but will likely start with just half a dozen and grow from there. “Each cottage accommodates between nine and 12 residents, and we cater to their needs with features such as a main kitchen area from which they’re served, to make it feel more like they’re living in a home, as well as complete security. At the same time, they’re free to come and go as they please.”

Each of the four cottages — Alder, Birch, Cedar and Dogwood — contains its own kitchen and living

Historical Society museum to break ground MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Historical Society is set to break ground on their long-awaited museum, at 10 a.m. on Aug. 25.

The museum project has been ongoing since the Society was first formed in 1974. The groundbreaking ceremony is set to take place at 6805 Armar Rd. in Marysville.

In addition to the museum effort, the MHS has engaged in other community projects including the purchase and relocation of the Gehl Pioneer Home to Jennings Park in 1984 as part of Marysville’s State Centennial commemoration.

Another successful MHS project was the battle to save the historic water tower in Comeford Park after city of Marysville officials announced plans to demolish it. The MHS led the fundraising campaign that succeeded in saving the landmark and on Dec. 7, 2002, the restored water tower was dedicated as part of the “Merrysville For the Holidays” celebration.

The museum is seen as the next project in this line of successful endeavors for the Society. Design concepts will be on display at the groundbreaking and construction is scheduled to start in September.

The Marysville Historical Society is a private, not-for profit organization of about 200 members, dedicated to the discovery, preservation and display of all items relating to the history of the greater Marysville area. This includes artifacts, photographs and personal stories about the people who brought Marysville out of the woods and made it a city.

Thousands of cyclists visit Arlington

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The city of Arlington served as a resting point for thousands of cyclists who were participating in the RSVP Ride, a long-distance cycling trip held Aug. 17-19.

RSVP stands for “Ride from Seattle to Vancouver and Party!” and takes two days to travel from the University of Washington campus in Seattle to downtown Vancouver, B.C. The first RSVP ride was scheduled from Aug. 17 to Aug. 18, while a second ride, RSVP2, spanned from Aug. 18 to Aug. 19. Both rides had a 1,400-rider limit and the first was completely sold out within 24 hours of open registration.

“The RSVP riders came through Arlington today,” said Arlington Recreation Manager Sarah Lopez on Aug. 17. “Arlington is a good stopping point because we have the new restrooms downtown, where they are filling up their water bottles

and they are using the gazebo for shade.”

This year marked the 31st RSVP ride, which is hosted by the Seattle-based Cascade Bicycle Club. The ride is considered a classic among cyclists and the Cascade Bicycle Club created the RSVP2 as the ride gained in popularity.

The Seattle to Vancouver route consists of 188 miles, much of it on back roads and trails, starting with the Burke-Gilman Trail from Seattle to Bothell. Participants rode 106 miles the first day, passing through Bothell, Woodinville, Clearview, Snohomish, Lake Stevens, Arlington, Mount Vernon, Bow and Bellingham. The Centennial Trail served as the route from Snohomish to Arlington, where many riders took advantage of the adjacent Arlington Visitor Information Center.

It is considered a challenging route, but riders look forward to the finish line festival — complete with a no-host bar, barbecue and music — at the Coast Plaza

Suite Hotel in downtown Vancouver.

But for the city of Arlington, the presence of the cyclists represents a boost in the local economy,

as many of the riders spent their leisure time taking in the sights of downtown and visiting local eateries.

“It’s really nice to have them here,” said Lopez.

“They stopped and filled up their water jugs and spent time eating lunch at downtown restaurants, so that’s great.”

Ragin’ Ray Golf Tournament raises $7,000

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The second annual Ragin’ Ray Golf Tournament fundraiser boasted more than $7,000 raised and more than 90

participants at the Gleneagle Golf Course on Aug. 11.

“We had outstanding support from the community,” said Lianna Neyens, co-founder and owner of Firefighters’ Wives, a nonprofit organization that

hosts the tournament each year.

The Ragin’ Ray Golf tournament began in 2011 as a way to raise funds for Marysville Fire District firefighter Ray Hancock, who was diagnosed with

Ray Hancock, center, stands with his wife Lisa and father Hector at the second annual Ragin’ Ray Golf Tournament, a local fundraiser supporting his family as he deals with a career-ending health diagnosis — Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.

Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease, in 2010. Hancock has been working for the district for nearly 20 years.

“My husband is a firefighter who worked with Ray,” said Neyens. Neyens began Firefighters’ Wives with Kara Tucker, whose husband Jeff Tucker works with Hancock at the Marysville Fire District, as a way to show support for firefighters — especially those who are suffering from careerending circumstances such as Hancock’s diagnosis.

“We just want to show our support to those who risk their lives everyday for our safety,” said Neyens. The golf tournament is in its second year and raised more than $7,000.

“This is our first year at Gleneagle,” said Neyens.

“Gleneagle was very accommodating and generous with their golf course and food service the day of the event.”

Ninety-three golfers competed and dozens of

local businesses and fire districts sponsored the event, including several local businesses that donated raffle items and a separate raffle hosted by Sunrise Dental in Marysville. All of the raffle proceeds were immediately donated to Hancock and his family.

“Most of our hole sponsors were other local fire departments,” said Neyens, who included Marysville, Arlington, Getchell, Lake Stevens and Bremerton as department locals who sponsored holes. “It’s really exceptional to see their support.”

Hancock himself came to the tournament and was overwhelmed by the show of support from his community. “There’s just no words to describe it,” said Hancock. “To see everybody come out on a Saturday to support me and my family was just awesome.”

Gleneagle Golf Course provided a barbecue following the tournament and local musician Jim

Brunkhorst volunteered his time to perform at the event.

“The band was donated at the last minute, which was a nice surprise,” said Neyens.

The third annual Ragin’ Ray Golf Tournament has already been scheduled for Sept. 13. 2013, also at Gleneagle Golf Course. “We had a little less participation than last year, and I think it’s because it was scheduled for a summer Saturday and a lot of people were on vacation. We hope to have a little more next year,” said Neyens.

Despite a slightly smaller turnout than the inaugural event, Neyens was still impressed with the level of commitment to Hancock.

“It’s really amazing that even people who don’t know Ray, but who have heard of him, are coming out to support him. It’s outstanding,” she said.

about buying a new backpack and school supplies.

“I’ve been out of work for more than a year,” said Anderson, who’d been employed in the banking industry. “My husband still has a job, but one income

is just not enough nowadays. We probably could have made due, but now we can use these funds for things like groceries. This is a really great service, but it’s scary to see how many people have to be here.”

The school supplies in each backpack were sorted according to each individual student’s grade level and school, then handed out by volunteers at color-coded tables, with each color covering an alphabetical group-

ing of last names to distribute everyone in line evenly.

The parents had to have their children present to collect their backpacks, and every child got his or her hand stamped to avoid the risk of duplication.

“My challenge to all the students and parents here this year is to invest in what’s important,” Johnson said. “Integrity, love and relationships are all things that really count and matter and last. Sometimes we get confused and focus on things that don’t last. It’s okay to like toys or money or clothes, but not when they take the place of your relationships.”

Although the backpacks and school supplies are material goods, Johnson sees them as an investment in the quality of local students’ education, especially given the difficulties that many families face due to ongoing economic troubles.

“If it wasn’t for this, I wouldn’t be able to fully get them what they needed,” said Heather Trippel, whose two sons are going into Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program and second grade at Presidents Elementary this fall, respectively. “It’s really cool how much stuff they’re offering, even stuff like the candy and balloons and face-painting. The

boys love it, and I’m hugely appreciative.”

Tulalip youth maintain trail

DARRINGTON — Seven Tulalip students gained work experience and helped out the community by working on a two-day stewardship project to maintain the Big Four Ice Caves Trail to Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility standards on the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest.

The trail work involved removing excess branches and pulling weeds and vegetation from the sides of the trail. They also cleared away drainage areas from avalanche debris by rolling logs down a hill.

Most of the forestry projects the students work on are on the Tulalip Reservation.

This was the first visit to the national forest for student Moy Flores. “I like working out in nature, it beats the office,” he said. Flores added that cutting down weeds with a weed whip was the highlight of his day.

The stewardship project also offered educational opportunities for the students. After lunch on the first day a Forest Service ranger led the group to the ice caves, explaining the history of the area and describing how snow piles up below the Big Four Mountain to create the caves.

“I try to get these kids out to experience more,” said Jason Gobin, Tulalip forestry manager.

The Tulalip Tribe provides summer jobs to teens between the ages of 14-18 to gain experience in career fields ranging from hotel resort management, office administration and housing to natural resource stewardship.

The students work 180 hours and receive volunteer credits for high school graduation. For more information contact Jason Gobin at 425210-5156.

Burn ban in effect for Snohomish County

Due to continued high fire dangers, and prolonged hot and dry weather conditions, the Snohomish County Fire Marshal is reminding residents that outdoor burning, except for recreational fires, has been banned.

Residents also are asked to take extra precautions with recreational fires.

“While we are not banning recreational fires, we are asking residents to reconsider how necessary they might be in light of current weather conditions,” said Mike McCrary, the county’s Fire Marshal.

Recreational fires are less than three feet in diameter and two feet high, and are for cooking and pleasure only.

Recreational fires must be contained within a fire pit that has been cleared of all combustible material within a 10-foot radius.

They must be monitored

at all times, and must have a water source readily available (at a minimum, a charged water hose or a five-gallon bucket of water).

The current burn ban began Aug. 6 and will remain in effect until further notice. Residents within the boundaries of an incorporated city or town should check with their local fire departments for current burning ban information.

All outdoor burn permits, including permits issued by the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency for agricultural burning, are suspended until this ban is lifted. This ban will remain in effect until there is a sustained period of rainfall and the fire risk returns to low.

Contact the Outdoor Burning Information Hotline at 425-388-3508 for updated information.

of each month, except for December, from 10 a.m. to noon. Smaller committee groups meet according to need. It is expected that Council members regularly attend and participate in the monthly Council meetings, and commit to serving on at least one sub-committee of interest. All meetings occur during work hours.

Sub-committees of the Council include the Legislative, Finance, Allocations and Evaluations, Mental Wellness and Senior Centers committees, as well as the Ad Hoc Disabilities committee.

The Council on Aging strives for a membership that represents the county’s growing diversity. County residents who represent the needs of ethnic and racial minority communities, older persons wishing to improve the quality of life for senior citizens, persons who represent organizations that serve older and younger disabled persons, locally elected officials and members of the general public are encouraged to apply. A majority of the members of the Council on Aging are 60 years or older.

The only exceptions to membership are employ-

‘Drive Hammered, Get Nailed’ continues through Sept. 3

August is a deadly month on Washington’s roadways, according to the Fatality Analysis Reporting System. From 2006-10, on average, more impaired driving deaths occurred in August than any other month. That’s why, from now through Sept. 3, extra officers will

be looking for DUI drivers during the annual “Drive Hammered, Get Nailed” campaign in Snohomish County.

During last year’s “Drive Hammered, Get Nailed” campaign, officers on routine and extra patrols arrested 113 peo-

ple for DUI in Snohomish County alone. For all of 2011 in Snohomish County, 4,108 people were charged with DUI, according to the Administrative Office of the Courts.

The Arlington, Marysville and Tulalip Tribal police depart-

ChurCh

of

ments will be joining those of Brier, Edmonds, Everett, Granite Falls, Lake Stevens, Lynnwood, Mill Creek, Monroe, Mountlake Terrace and Mukilteo, as well as the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office and the Washington State Patrol, in participating in the “Drive

Christ

Hammered, Get Nailed” campaign.

The Bothell Police Department will also conduct patrols as part of the Snohomish County effort.

Nehring shared words at the Council award presentation from a high school project that profiled Gardner, written by her granddaughter, who described her grandmother as a woman of strength and wisdom, a great storyteller with plenty of youthful drive, and an expert bread baker in her limited spare time.

On behalf of Gardner, Nehring encouraged community members to consider joining the volunteer group by contacting the Volunteer Department at Providence, to “make a positive impact.”

Diane Gardner, left, is named Volunteer of the Month for June

by Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring.

31, 2014, which will reduce the funding available to the city starting in 2015, the city is facing a more immediate estimated deficit of $700,000 in 2013, which Tolbert cited as requiring additional cuts.

Over the past few years, the city has already used furloughs for non-uniformed personnel, as well as salary savings from arrangements with its uniformed police, fire and EMS personnel, but Tolbert acknowledged that these measures are shortterm solutions that won’t lead to “an ultimate fix” for the city’s budget shortfalls.

“Based upon these reasons, I have directed that the city of Arlington organization be reviewed and realigned from top to bottom,” Tolbert said.

“These two layoffs are part of that realignment. There are additional, unavoidable changes within the organization that will be forthcoming in the next few weeks. The realignment will help us succeed in the long term” Tolbert thanked Kuhl and Phelps for their commitment to the city, and the hard work that they’ve each invested in it over the years.

ARLINGTON — The city of Arlington announced on Tuesday, Aug. 7, that Community Development Director David Kuhl and Wellness Coordinator Sherri Phelps had been laid off effective immediately.

According to Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert, this layoff is strictly for budgetary purposes and is in no way a reflection “of the dedication and commitment these fine individuals have given to our organization over the many years.”

Tolbert cited the ongoing declines in the city’s sales tax collections over the years as a factor in this decision.

“This was not an easy decision to make,” Tolbert said. “In 2009 and 2010, the city exhausted its reserves to keep employees’ jobs. At the end of 2011, we faced an upcoming $2 million deficit.

We were able to close this gap through the sacrifices made by all departments and all employees, in addition to increased utility taxes that secured additional revenue for the city.”

Although some of these increases will sunset on Dec.

a time when they need it most.

Her extra hospital volunteer time is devoted to orienting all new volunteers to the hospital by teaching a three-hour class monthly or bi-monthly. She played a key role in developing the content of the program.

Gardner also devotes time to train individual volunteers in the Rounding Program, the volunteer group that replenishes name labels in patient charts and offers patients reading materials or other items to make them feel more comfortable within a hospital environment, Nehring said.

Gardner was recently chosen to lead a tour for special need students who might be able to volunteer in selected areas of the hospital. Currently, along with hospital leadership, she is developing the orientation program for high school students who volunteer during the summer.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring has named Diane Gardner as Volunteer of the Month for June for her countless volunteer hours and leadership through the Patient Link Program at Providence Regional Medical Center in Everett.

“Diane has a lot invested in Providence, and the time, effort and compassion she gives are indispensable to the Providence family in its mission to provide compassionate care,” Nehring said at a recent Marysville City Council meeting, where Gardner was honored. “We applaud her for her work at the hospital, and for all she does in her community.”

One day a week, Gardner participates in the Patient Link Program. Her time involves visiting all patients who have been admitted to the hospital within the prior 24 hours of her scheduled start.

According to Nehring, visiting with patients gives Gardner the opportunity to apply excellent communication skills and an endless supply of compassion to work for sick people, at

Name: Cinderella Animal ID: 16806026 Breed: Dom. Short Hair Age: 9 years Gender: Female Color: Grayblack/White/Tan Spayed/Neutered: Yes

There was no pet memo available for Cinderella. However, all one has to do is look at her to see what a beauty she is & that she is a calico.

Calicos, in general, are confident, friendly out-going & very smart.

They are usually very good with other animals as they are quite calm & usually love people and love to be loved. Please come in to visit Cinderella and see how perfect she is for you.

Name: Lily Animal ID: 16994589 Breed: Bassett/German pointer Mix Age: 11 Years Gender: Female Color: Black/White Spayed/Neutered: No

Lily is a mellow gal who needs to find her second home. Her original parents went into retirement, so she is looking for a new lease on life w/a new family. She needs a home that is semi-active, but still peaceful and quiet. Her personality is more Basset. She loves car walks & rides, so take her on errands around town.

She has never lived with other dogs, so supervised introductions to a resident dog is essential.

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

All cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.
