MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Special Education PTSA’s third annual Resource Fair and Family Fun Night on Wednesday, Oct. 17, presented attendees with new vendors and new activities in a new location. Jessie Atkins, president of the Marysville Special Education PTSA, expressed her gratitude to Totem Middle School for working with her group to host the event in previous years, but she believes that Cedarcrest Middle School provides a bit more room and clearer entryways to prevent confusion on the part of families looking to stop by during its three-hour running time that afternoon. “Everyone’s been wonderfully supportive,” Atkins said, praising the estimated two dozen volunteers who helped stage the event as well, including Marysville middle and high school students. “The donations we got were too awesome to be

just door prizes, so that inspired us to do the silent auction this year.” The donors included not only the participating vendors, but also several area businesses and other organizations and individuals. Atkins also incorporated the silent auction into this year’s Resource Fair to add the Family Fun Night component for families who might have been put off by the first part of its title. “People hear ‘Resource Fair’ and they might think, ‘Oh, that’s for folks on welfare, so I wouldn’t qualify,’” Atkins said. “We want this to feel inclusive. Some of our vendors, such as the Warm Beach Camp and Conference Center in Stanwood, don’t just serve the disabled.” Warm Beach, which was represented for the first time at the Resource Fair this year by Disabilities Ministries Director Laurie Fertello, nonetheless focuses on providing safe and supportive day-camp experiences for those with disabilities 15 SEE FAIR , PAGE 2

Ken Christiansen’s resignation from the Lakewood School District Board of Directors takes effect Dec. 19.

LAKEWOOD — After serving on the Lakewood School District Board of Directors since Dec. 5, 2001, Board member Ken Christiansen is resigning this year. Christiansen submitted a letter of resignation at the Oct. 17 Board meeting, and his resignation takes effect Dec. 19. In his letter, Christiansen wrote, “It has been my privilege to serve on the Board these past 11 years. Throughout this period I have worked alongside very talented, dedicated and capable board members. It has been a worthwhile and rewarding endeavor to be a part of

helping provide support to the district staff, administration and families in Lakewood.” He further wrote, “Serving the Lakewood School District has been an honor and I will miss it. Lakewood School District has been and continues to be a source of great pride for me personally. Best wishes to everyone as the district continues the efforts to provide and deliver a high quality education to our students.” After submitting his letter of resignation, Christiansen enumerated on his proudest achievements as part of the Lakewood School District Board of Directors, such as helping to address the facili-

ties needs of students and staff alike. “When I started on the Board, we had 36 portables, and that’s been drastically reduced,” Christiansen said. “We’ve not only caught up in accommodating the kids we had, but we’ve also kept up with the growth since then, which has admittedly flattened out in recent years.” Another pressing need when Christiansen began his tenure on the Board was replacements for curriculum materials. “We’ve gotten on top of that and stayed on it,” said Christiansen, who pointed to SEE BOARD, PAGE 2

Individuals interested in representing Director District 3 on the Lakewood School Board may complete the application form on the district’s website at www.lwsd. wednet.edu and send it to Robin Barker, c/o Lakewood School District, P.O. Box 220, N. Lakewood, WA 98259, or deliver it to 17110 16th Dr. NE, Marysville, WA 98271. Candidates must be U.S. citizens, registered voters in the state of Washington, and residents of the Director

District 3 area. Applications will be accepted through Nov. 16. The Board will be conducting interviews for all qualified applicants at the Dec. 5 Board meeting. The individual selected and appointed by the Board to fill this open position will serve through the remainder of that term, November of 2013. Prior to the expiration of that term, if the individual appointed wishes to run for election for the next fouryear term, that individual would need to file for election with Snohomish County in June of 2013. A map of the Director District 3 boundaries is available on the district website at www.lwsd.wednet.edu. For more information on the Director District 3 vacancy, please contact Dr. Dennis Haddock, superintendent of the Lakewood School District, at 360-6524500.

to recent back-and-forth renegotiations over state funding. “Thousands of folks lost their care, and many of them had to choose between their children’s safety and their own jobs,” said Lowe, who can be reached via email at lowe99@comcast.net. “Because that eligibility for subsidized care was bumped back up, though, you might not have to send your children home alone.” Declan Loertscher, 12, has made tremendous strides with his autism just since the last Resource Fair, according to his mother Rachel. While Declan looked up from his video game to greet those who said hello to him with a smile in return, Rachel explained how behavioral therapy is often inadequate to meet the social adjustment needs of autistic children. “It’s harder to rate the effectiveness of socialization therapy, which is why insurance doesn’t cover it,” Rachel Loertscher said. “It’s more subjective, but he’s made leaps and bounds through it.” Ultimately, one of the more useful functions of events such as the Resource Fair, according to Lori Schneider and Sylvia Stevenson of the Down Syndrome Association of Snohomish County, is that it helps families feel like they’re not alone in their experiences. “Parents who have been through this can tell parents who are just starting this journey that their own kids turned out happy and welladjusted,” Stevenson said. “It’s challenging, but a joy at the same time.”

similar progress in technology. “When I began here, we had 85 computers in the whole system, none of which could be used in the classroom. Now, every teaching station has its own smartboard, as well as the professional development programs so that teachers can use them effectively.” Christiansen looks forward to the opportunity to enjoy more personal time and engage in other civic areas of interest. He had already opted not to run for a fourth term when he took stock of his other commitments, to both his family and his career.

“They were taking up enough of my energy that, rather than serving out the remainder of my term in a marginal fashion, I thought it would be better to allow the Board to replace me with someone who could take on a more significant role.” Christiansen advised his successor, whomever he or she might be, to learn how the Lakewood School District works and to make its longterm goals their own. His last official Board meeting will be Dec. 18, and during that meeting, the Board will host a brief recess to thank him personally for his many years of contributions to the district.

Larson visits Arlington manufacturing facilities

ARLINGTON — U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen’s visit to the former facilities for Bayliner and U.S. Marine adjacent to the Arlington Airport on Wednesday, Oct. 17, found an area that’s at more than half of its occupancy, according to Brent Nicholson, one of the partners in the ownership group for the site. “We’re doing pretty well tenant-wise,” Nicholson told Larsen and a number of Arlington city officials, including Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert. “By next spring, we could be at 100 percent capacity.” Paul Ellis, assistant to the City Administrator for Special Projects, noted that Meridian Yachts employed as few as 800 people at the site by the time it shut down at the end of 2008, down from a peak of 2,200 employees. Realistically, Nicholson expects that his tenants will employ a little more than 300 people even at full site capacity, but he agreed with Larsen that the upturn in tenants at the site

shows a resurgence of the manufacturing market. “Only one in 10 want to buy,” Nicholson said. “The rest have wanted to lease.” Tolbert and Arlington City Administrator Allen Johnson asserted that the city has worked to streamline its processes to facilitate the coming of new businesses, especially in the manufacturing field, an assessment with which Ted Wheeler heartily concurred. Wheeler, a general contractor formerly of T&E International, officially rechristened his company HCI Steel Building Systems about a month ago, after acquiring a number of the since-defunct company’s equipment and moving into the site east of the Arlington Airport this spring. A selfdescribed conservative, he and Larsen shared a laugh over Wheeler’s admission that he might not necessarily vote for Larsen in the fall, but he emphasized that he was willing to listen to Larsen’s positions. “Tax increases are killing us,” Wheeler told Larsen. “Sixty-five percent of our

spending cuts are coming from only 35 percent of our budget,” Larsen said. “Onehundred percent spending cuts alone can’t do it.” Wheeler attributed his own businesses’ survival through lean economic times to a philosophy that prizes fostering consumer loyalty in the long run over generating short-term profits. “You can’t retire off every customer,” Wheeler said. “Our prices aren’t always the lowest, but they’re seldom ever the highest, and the price we give people is the price they get, unless we can give them a savings if our own costs turn out to be lower. You can’t be greedy.” Ken Turner of Pacific Tank & Energy voiced his grievances with the Dodd– Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which he saw as blocking loans to his own business even after he showed that he already had customers signed on for his fuel containers, but Larsen disputed that Dodd-Frank was the culprit. “Regardless, it’s not just our business,” Turner said.

U.S. Rep. Rick Larsen, left, speaks with Ken Turner of Pacific Tank & Energy about ways to facilitate the economic growth of small businesses on Oct. 17. “We all have customers who want to buy, but even with Triple-A ratings it’s hard to get financing, even when we already have contracts.” In contrast to Wheeler, who praised Tolbert and her city staff upon meeting them, Turner had never met Tolbert before that morning, although he’d dealt with Ellis frequently. Both Wheeler and Turner, however, agreed that Nicholson

has been an excellent landlord to them. “Of all the landlords I’ve had, you’re on the top bar,” Wheeler told Nicholson, before telling Larsen and the Arlington city officials, “Brent will even work with you when you’re late on a payment.” “Hear, hear,” Turner added. “The way that Brent has managed to resurrect this place is nothing short

of heroic.” Wheeler compared the slow recovery of the economy to a steady airplane takeoff, and argued that he wouldn’t want it to go too high, too fast. “Rather than stalling out, this should lay a solid foundation for a more stable future,” Wheeler said. “Rick is extremely on top of things,” Turner said of Larsen.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Who would steal from a food bank? A small church near Granite Falls offers a food bank once a month. They have a little room for storage. Someone went in (broke in) and stole all the food in the freezer and food in the little storage room. What is happening to our communities? Don’t people and neighbors care about those who have less, the aged, or those without sources of money to get by on? Is there no love in the hearts of a friend. Is it all selfishness? Beverley Hathaway Marysville

Vote No on charter schools White billionaires want to control the education of poor people. Why? To make a profit, for excitement and fun, for power, for a feeling of self-righteousness, for a chance to be a do-gooder? Numerous studies have proven that charter schools, on average, don’t do a better job of educating than regular public schools. Stanford University conducted a study that shows only one in five charter schools are more

successful than a public school. The rest are the same or worse. It is foolhardy to replace a public school, with a community that supports it, for a privately controlled school that is probably no better and possibly worse and accountable only to their own, high-paid directors. Only about one-third of charter school teachers remain teaching after two years. Most teachers don’t begin to develop into a good teacher until their third year. Charter schools dramatically underserve or discourage children with special needs, second language learners, children in homeless or foster care situations, and those that get free or reduced lunch. Yes, this is discrimination. Public schools are open to all. Poverty is the main cause of poor academic achievement. This has just recently been documented with the results of the SAT tests that show scores rising in stair step increments with the increase of household income. (Skagit Valley Herald) When we are willing to attack the problem of poverty, we will see children able to learn. Until childhood poverty, an increase in household income, and health care for all are tackled, education for all will not happen. Judy Fay Arlington

Campaign rhetoric misses the big picture

hile 12.5 million workers remain unemployed, politicians blame each other for a weak job market using arguments like these: “The president isn’t doing all he can to create jobs.” “No, he inherited the mess. Your plan only continues that flawed system.” “Oh, yeah? You think raising taxes for the people who make jobs is going to help?” “Read your history! Whenever we’ve had higher taxes on the superrich there’s always been high profits and employment.” The public is tired of bickering. Not that it’s totally empty of substance, it’s that we need and deserve better, something that reflects educated understanding. Instead, leaders burden us with juvenile wrangling that gets the nation nowhere. The media isn’t much help. They seldom look deeper than how many are drawing unemployment, how many have exhausted benefits, how many have given up searching and how many new jobs have been created. Nothing but soulless numbers there. We’d like some depth, please. Give us something more to ponder than the surface of problems. Nothing gets done to solve this sticky issue by holding the focus on unemployment data. Data says only that we have a problem and describes its size. It falls short of identifying underlying issues and what can be done about them. Imagine Democrats and Republicans positioned on opposite sides of a pond to study it. But all they observe and argue about is the few leaves drifting this way and that across the surface. Just so, they appear so focused on the surface of the unemployment problem that they seem blind to its root causes. Identifying root causes brings up two questions: (1) Would it actually do any good to tackle some particular cause, and (2) would it be best for government to keep its nose out of certain issues. Keep those questions in

mind while scanning 10 real causes for unemployment. Outsourcing: The system is rigged to reward industries for shipping jobs overseas. Mergers and acquisitions: Due to economies of scale, jobs are always lost when corporations marry. Where two companies have purchasing departments before a merger, one, along with its employees, will disappear afterward. The retire-rehire revolving door: In school districts, industry, the military and government, hiring of new workers is minimized wherever retirees return to work while collecting retirement benefits. Production technology: Jobs are lost when bigger faster machines are put to work. Though this cannot and should not be reversed, it still must be considered as a significant source of unemployment. Foreign competition: Expect China to restrict importation of American goods while continuing to fill American shelves with Made in China inventory. If you want a plastic doohickey manufactured, it almost certainly will be made in China. Or Sri Lanka. Or the Philippines. Dwindling resources: Over 60 years, Marysville lost three critical sources of employment; Logging, fishing and mill-work. After trees and fish were overharvested, thousands of jobs disappeared and with the demise of logging, mills that converted logs to finished building products shut down. Reduced purchasing power: What goes around, comes around. When unemployed or underemployed workers lack the buying power to keep factories busy producing goods, factory payrolls are trimmed. Stagnant piles of money: Apple,

among others, sits on billions of dollars, awaiting a more promising business climate before putting the money to work. Meanwhile, thousands of small businesses are desperate for the working capital that creates jobs. Monopolistic control: The giants of manufacturing, finance, agriculture and marketing overshadow opportunity for small business and smallbusiness jobs. We’re witnessing two (soon three) local Walmarts strangling small Marysville and Arlington retailers. More jobs are lost than gained. Fossil fuel industries fight development of alternative energy facilities. Daily TV ads show Big Coal and Big Oil working to convince the public that fossil fuels must remain the heart of America’s energy supply. On the other hand, thousands of new alternative energy facilities would hire hundreds of thousands of new employees. Of course coal and oil will remain, but not to dominate America’s changing energy profile. This list goes on to charge Congress with stonewalling good jobs bills in order to damage the record of a sitting president. And of course unemployment, itself, is a great creator of unemployment. If you’re not working you’re not earning. If you’re not earning you’re not spending. If you’re not spending you’re not supporting employment across the economy. The super-rich seem to have gone blind to this basic economic reality. Proof shows as investors pull down handsome profits while battling against minimum wage increases. As workers from whom they draw their income go broke, lose homes, file bankruptcy and go without medical insurance, all lose. How could investors forget that middle and low income spenders are the geese that lay their golden eggs? The nation needs to mount a fullcourt press against every assailable limit to employment, whether large or small. I’ll vote for whoever appears to best understand this.

Aunt Nae’s Attic opens, collects for Food Bank BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Jeff and Renae Allen were no strangers to waiting in line at the Marysville Community Food Bank, so when their fortunes had recovered enough that they no longer required its services, they started think about how they could support the organization that had given them so much aid when they needed it. “We’ve been thinking of doing this for at least five years now,” Renae Allen said after the official ribbon-cutting for “Aunt Nae’s Attic” on 1402 State Ave. on Friday, Oct. 19. “When Jeff ’s stepfather passed away and left us some money, we decided that we needed to do this now, since we’ve been living in Marysville since 1999.” The Allens’ collectables and thrift store was welcomed to the neighborhood by Marysville Mayor Jon

Nehring and City Council members Steve Muller, Carmen Rasmussen, Michael Stevens and Rob Toyer, who joined Marysville Community Food Bank Director Dell Deierling in taking part in the ribboncutting. Not only are the Allens collecting food for the Food Bank at their store, but they’re also accepting donations of reusable household items, clothes and toys, so that they can give a portion of the profits to the Food Bank from selling those donated items. “This was all my wife’s idea, and it’s a great idea,” Jeff Allen said. “After we got caught up on our bills, we just said, ‘Let’s do it.’ They helped us, so now it’s our time to help them.” Renae Allen explained that a friend of Jeff ’s had donated a great deal of his belongings to the Allens when he moved, giving them enough goods to start

the store’s stock, which the couple then supplemented with donations from other friends and family members. “It was about a 35-year collection,” said Renae Allen, whose nickname of “Aunt Nae” dates back to her days of selling merchandise on eBay. “So we are packed.” “I wish these folks nothing but the best,” Nehring said. “The Food Bank is hurting for supplies, so I’d love to rally more support for them as we head into the holiday season.” “This is all part of the community support system,” Deierling said. “People can purchase useful items here at a fraction of the cost. Especially in this economy, we really need to make our dollars stretch.” Since opening their doors close to a month before their official grand opening, Renae Allen has seen dishes, cups and pans

Sadie Lane supports breast cancer awareness BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

Ronda Howard and her son Logan look forward to raising funds for breast cancer awareness through a portion of their October sales at Sadie Lane Vintage Treasures.

ARLINGTON — Ronda Howard just opened Sadie Lane Vintage Treasures at 301 N. Olympic Ave. in the spring, but she’s already looking to start an annual tradition at her store. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an occasion that’s possessed extra significance for Howard since her mother’s passing 14 years ago, at the age of 50. To that end, October has been a “Pink Month” for Sadie Lane, as Howard has offered her customers a variety of opportunities to show their support for those who are or have been impacted by breast cancer. Not only can visitors to her store write the names of loved ones who have faced breast cancer — “those who have lost, those who have won, and those who are still in the middle of it” — but those who donate to her jar can tie pink ribbons around the branches of a tree in her storefront window. “More than anything else, it’s inspired a lot of conversations,” Howard said. “People have just come in to talk and tell me their stories, whether they’re survivors or still fighting or they’ve lost someone.” Howard’s ambitious plans for future Octobers at her store include trying to schedule a visit from a portable discounted mammography van during the month. She’s been so impressed by the community

spirit that’s been demonstrated during the Arlington Relays For Life on behalf of the American Cancer Society that she’s optimistic that October could become just as much a pink month in Arlington as the summer months are purple for the town. “I’ve got a platform and I’m going to use it,” Howard said. “Losing my mom was my main drive to go pink, and while the money in the jar is still growing, it’s the conversations promoting awareness of breast cancer that have been my main goal.” Which is not to say that fundraising is not also important, since Howard has credited the generosity of her 15 vendors with allowing her to sell several pink-tagged donated items in the store with 100 percent of those proceeds going toward breast cancer awareness and research. In addition to vintage and antique items that Howard refurbishes and repurposes herself, her vendors’ selection includes a variety of new clothing and old household items, as well as what she calls “fun junk.” “I have my own work area in the back of the shop,” Howard said. “This business grew out of my garage on Facebook into this. It was named after my Rottweiler, Gracious Sadie Lane.” For more information on Sadie Lane or their breast cancer awareness promotions, you may contact Howard by phone at 360-403-0760 or via email at shabbysadie@yahoo.com.

Pilchuck Hot Rod Academy hosts car show

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

SMOKEY POINT — Hot rod and motorcycle enthusiasts will have a chance to show off their rides while helping to support an alternative avenue of education for area youth who share their passions. The Pilchuck Hot Rod Academy, which now has 501(c)(3) nonprofit status, is inviting the surrounding community to attend its car show fundraiser on Saturday, Oct. 27, from noon to 4 p.m., complete with food and live music. The Pilchuck Hot Rod Academy was borne of the commitment of Dave Grinnell and his partners, Marcus Hansen and Kate Otey, whose goal has been to create confident and productive workers in the future by assisting students now in graduating from high school or obtaining their GEDs, as well as by enlisting businesses and community volunteers to mentor those prospective workers in trade skills. When Grinnell was told that he could no longer pursue his previous career in construction due to the wear and tear that it had put on his body, he thought back to his youthful love of classic cars and soupedup rigs, and realized that he had an opportunity to help out the kids of today who face scholastic challenges similar to those he

overcame. “My dad was a maintenance man at a steel fabrication shop, so I grew up around dozens of cars,” Grinnell said. “He was always helping other people out with their cars, but he never found time to finish his own.” While Grinnell inherited his father’s passion for cars, the Pilchuck Hot Rod Academy is intended to serve much more than his own nostalgic interests. “The hot rods are just the candy to attract the kids,” Grinnell said. “What really matters is giving them a comfortable place where they can receive positive feedback. We’re about counseling them as much as anything else.” Grinnell is always looking to recruit more businesses and individuals with expertise in this field to provide lectures and demonstrations, and he’s already built up a library of thousands of automotive publications and films of car races through donations from the community, including hot rod magazines from 1955 through 1981 dropped off by Jim Wharton. “This is for the kids who might not hang out at school,” Grinnell said. “There’s no reason to put yourself into debt with student loans to go to college if that’s not where your passions lie. We have such tal-

MARYSVILLE — Volunteers are needed to help Snohomish County residents keep more of what they earn, as part of United Way’s IRSapproved free tax preparation program in 2013. All volunteers will receive training from United Way and will be certified by the IRS. In addition to tax preparers, United Way is also looking for volunteers who do not wish to prepare income taxes, but who wish to serve as greeters and intake specialists. Goodwill’s Marysville Job Training and Education Center will be hosting the free tax preparation site in Marysville. Volunteers who are multilingual are greatly needed. United Way of Snohomish County will operate the free tax preparation program at six sites throughout Snohomish County from Jan. 22 to April 15, 2013. In addition to the site in Marysville, there will be three sites in Everett and one each in Monroe and Lynnwood. The program is designed to help working families prepare their income tax forms for free, raising awareness about the Earned Income Tax Credit, child care and other available tax credits, while avoiding fees associated with for-profit tax preparers. At the free tax preparation sites, customers will also be able to sign up for public benefits and learn about opportunities to make the most of their tax refunds. The free tax preparation program will also provide taxpayers with information about asset building resources such as credit counseling, savings bonds and health care options. In 2012, 96 volunteers dedicated more than 5,100 hours to United Way of Snohomish County’s free tax preparation program. Volunteers prepared 2,511 tax returns and helped families claim more than $4.28 million in federal refunds, including nearly $1.3 million in Earned Income Tax Credits. In all, United Way volunteers saved customers an estimated $414,000 in tax preparation fees. For more information, please visit www.uwsc.org and click on “volunteer.” The volunteer registration deadline is Nov. 30. Training will take place in December and January. Each volunteer will be asked to contribute three to six hours a week of their time.

Undefeated Cougars top Tigers 58-6 BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — The Cougars have done it again. After seven consecutive victories, Lakewood’s football team managed to shake

off the steady downpour of rain on Friday, Oct. 19, and pull out an impressive 58-6 win over the visiting Granite Falls Tigers. The victory may come as no surprise as the undefeated Cougars

faced the Tigers, a team with a 2-5 overall record going into the game, but it did clinch their position as one of the top teams in the Cascade Conference. Granite Falls posed no real

offensive threat to the Cougars, other than one long touchdown in the second quarter putting the score at 12-6 for the Cougars, a lead that may have been a little too close for comfort for Lakewood. Luckily for Cougar fans, they only needed to worry for a few minutes as their team scored another two touchdowns before the end of the first half, leading Granite Falls 31-6 at halftime. The final first half touchdown was scored on a pass to wide receiver Brandon Stott, following a defensive turnover to the Cougars with only 48 seconds left on the clock. Despite going into halftime with a sizeable lead, the Cougars didn’t let up in the second half, scoring another four touchdowns in the third quarter. Neither team scored in the fourth quarter and they finished the game with a 58-6 victory for Lakewood. “I was really proud of the offensive line tonight,” said LHS head coach Dan Teeter. “We are missing two of our starters, and we still did a great job with those two positions filled. I’m really proud of how we did on the line.” One of the offensive leaders of the night was senior running back Donovan Evans, who has already

October 24, 2012

broken a number of school records in rushing yards. “We saw more than 300 yards from Donovan Evans tonight and he has more than 1,000 yards this season for eight games, so he’s doing really well,” said Teeter. There was a lot to celebrate on the defense as well. “I am really proud of those guys, you know they had that one long touchdown, and that’s really the first long touchdown they’ve let go this season. Otherwise they’ve been really solid and I couldn’t be more proud of them.” The Cougars are set to face the also undefeated King’s in the final game of the regular season. “Their defense is much improved from last year, they are very physical,” said Teeter. “And their offense has been unbelievable. Their quarterback has already committed to BYU. None of the kids in the program has beaten King’s before, so I know they are really focused going into that game. This next week is about the pride of being league champs.” The Cougars play King’s in an away game on Oct. 26 at 7 p.m. After that they head to the postseason competition, where they face the No. 4 team from the Northwest Conference on Nov. 2.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck and Marysville Getchell girls swim teams hosted Snohomish and Glacier Peak on Thursday, Oct. 18, and the Tomahawks managed to defeat Snohomish, 97-90. While Snohomish managed a 124-42 victory over Getchell, and Glacier Peak managed a 102-84 defeat over the Tomahawks and a 13633 defeat of the Chargers, the Tomahawks still glowed with pride over their impressive race times. “The Lady Tommie swim and dive team defeated Snohomish yesterday, 97-90, and came darn close to Glacier Peak,” said head coach Jaci LeGore Hodgins on Oct. 19. “This was a major accomplishment.” “Senior Hannah Taylor won both the 200 meter freestyle and 500 meter freestyle and played a huge role in why we qualified in the 200 meter free relay, swim-

ming a 00:23.77 anchor leg — which is fast,” said LeGore Hodgins. M-P freshman Ashlee Richmond swam a best time and was third in the 200 meter freestyle. Other impressive times for M-P include junior Melody Coleman’s 200 meter individual medley win, with a final time of 2:12.46, qualifying her for state. “[She] swam a fantastic 200 IM and won it, bettering her last swim by 5 seconds, and qualified for state,” said LeGore Hodgins. Another Tomahawks win included their 200 meter freestyle relay team of Coleman, Rebekah Pusateri, Madison Rossnagle and Hannah Taylor, who won their race with a time of 1:46.24, qualifying them for state as well. Coleman also succeeded in winning the 100 meter backstroke with a time of 1:03.17. “It was a great meet for us,” said LeGore Hodgins. “Seniors Rosemary Mohr and diver Aryn Hoyt, frosh

“The Lady Tommie swim and dive team defeated Snohomish yesterday, 97-90, and came darn close to Glacier Peak.” Jaci LeGore Hodgins Head Coach Madison Rossnagle, junior Maddison Stevens, junior Lydia Strough and sophomore Serena Corbett all deserve major kudos for their efforts to help us win as well.” The Tomahawks host the Last Chance Meet on Thursday, Oct. 25 at 2:45 p.m. The aptly named event is the last opportunity for area swimmers to compete for district and state qualifying times. Qualifying swimmers and divers will head to the 3A/4A District Dive Prelims on Oct. 31 at Mariner High School and the 3A District Swim Prelims at MarysvillePilchuck on Nov. 2.

ARLINGTON — A 16-year-old Arlington boy was home caring for his 11-year-old brother on Monday, Oct. 15, when a stranger rang the doorbell around mid-morning. Since the boys didn’t know the man, they didn’t answer, so the man at the door went around to the back of the house and kicked in that door. The two boys fled to their parents’ master bathroom and called 911, while the burglar made his way through the house to the bathroom where the boys were hiding. When the burglar saw the boys, he fled the house, limping as he ran. At least seven Snohomish County Sheriff ’s deputies, two police chiefs, a precinct captain and a canine unit arrived in the area. Deputies and the canine unit tracked the suspect through knee-high wet grass and creeks before finally capturing him a quarter-mile away. The two boys positively identified the suspect as the same man who confronted them in their parents’ bathroom, and deputies credited the boys with doing a good

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Farmers Market is commemorating a first with another first on the evening of Wednesday, Oct. 24. After tallying the votes in the fourth annual America’s Favorite Farmers Markets contest, American Farmland Trust named four farmers markets — one for each size category — as winners of their 2012 competition. The Arlington Farmers Market was named the winner of the “Small Markets” category of the summer-long contest, receiving 325 of the 5,266 votes cast in that category. To celebrate this win, the Arlington Farmers Market is staging its first-ever Harvest Dinner at 6 p.m. on Oct. 24 at 318 N. Olympic Ave. “Audrey [Houston] and Samantha [Schuller] worked very hard for the success of the Farmers Market, and due to their commitment,

they brought 600 to 1,000 people into downtown Arlington each Saturday of the Market,” said Arlington City Council member Debora Nelson, who also serves as a member of the Farmers Market Advisory Board. “This was good for all of our downtown businesses, and for the exposure of our wonderful downtown.” Houston explained that the Harvest Dinner has been scheduled in conjunction with “National Food Day,” and will kick off with Nelson and American Farmland Trust Regional Director Dennis Canty serving as guest speakers for the evening. Canty is slated to present the Farmers Market with a commemorative plaque. The Harvest Dinner itself promises to feature the culinary skills of Wild Rose Bistro and Catering in Arlington, since owner Debi Morgan has already agreed to provide the venue for it. “This will help us stretch

of tampering before children are allowed to eat them. Candy should be thrown away if the wrapper is faded or torn, or if the candy is unwrapped. n For adults expecting to see trick-or-treaters at the door, keep porch lights and exterior lights on, keep candlelit jack-o-lanterns clear of doorsteps and landings, and keep dogs and other pets away from doors so children will not become frightened. Parks officials also remind community members that all city parks are closed at dusk. These tips are courtesy of the city of Marysville, Marysville Police and Crime Prevention, and Marysville Fire District.

n Many accidents occur when motorists are backing vehicles out of driveways, unaware of the presence of small children. Costumes and Treats n Decorate costumes and bags with reflective tape or stickers and choose light colored costumes to improve visibility. n Choose face paint and make-up instead of masks, which can obstruct a child’s vision. Look for non-toxic designations when choosing Halloween makeup. n Avoid carrying sticks, swords, or other sharp objects. n Have kids carry glow sticks or flashlights in order to see better, as well as to be seen by drivers. n Liquid in glow sticks is hazardous, so parents should remind children not to chew on or break them. n Check treats for signs

well as other people. n Cross only at street corners, never between parked cars, and never diagonally across an intersection. n Look in all directions before crossing the street, and obey all traffic signals. Walk — never run — across the street, and use sidewalks, not the street, for walking. n Do not accept rides from strangers. Drivers n Exercise extreme caution when driving a vehicle. Be on the alert for excited youngsters, who may move unpredictably darting out into traffic, and whose vision may be obscured. n Anticipate heavy pedestrian traffic and turn your headlights on earlier in the day so you can spot children from greater distances. n Drive slowly and be alert to small children crossing streets.

MARYSVILLE — Volunteers will kick off the Marysville All-City Food Drive on Saturday, Nov. 3, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., to help neighbors in need this holiday season by collecting donations of money, food and unused toys. Volunteers from the city of Marysville, Marysville Fire District, Kiwanis and Lions clubs, Soroptimist International, Lakewood High School, Girl Scouts and other local youth groups will collect donations at various participating local grocers and retail stores. Hundreds of families have already registered to receive holiday baskets, and community support is the key to making the holidays bright for our local families, according to Marysville Community Food Bank officials. Volunteers will be located at the Fred Meyer, Albertsons, Grocery Outlet, Haggen, IGA and Safeway stores in Marysville and Smokey Point. Red barrels will be placed throughout the Marysville community starting Nov. 3 and will continue collecting food and toys throughout the holiday season. Donations can also be dropped off at the Marysville Community Food Bank, located at 4150 80th St. NE, behind St. Mary’s Catholic Church. For more information, contact Tara Mizell at 360-363-8404 or at tmizell@mar ysvillewa. gov. Volunteers for the toy store should contact JoAnn Moffit at 425-876-1010 or moffittbusichio@yahoo. com.
