MARYSVILLE — The United Way of Snohomish County and the AARP are offering area taxpayers a few different ways to prepare their income taxes free of charge this year.

The Marysville Goodwill’s Job Training and Education Center on 9315 State Ave. is providing free tax preparation services Tuesdays and Thursdays from 5:30-8:30 p.m., and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., through Tax Day on April 15.

Marysville’s American Legion Post 178 at 119 Cedar Ave. is likewise providing free tax filing help, albeit for military personnel and taxpayers with low to moderate incomes, Mondays and Fridays from 4-8 p.m., and Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Both the United Way and the AARP sites are accepting clients on a first-come, first-served basis, but the AARP site allows clients to call 425-220-4940 to reserve meeting times in advance, whereas the United Way site cannot schedule appointments.

“We helped prepare 28 returns within our first two weeks, and the average return had a $3,043 tax refund,” said Sue Fernalld, free tax preparation campaign site manager at the Marysville Goodwill. “We work with clients oneon-one and use the latest computer software to make sure they receive all the tax credits for which they’re eligible.”

Marysville neighborhood hit by flooding

MARYSVILLE — Denise Jantz has a gutted basement and a torn-up backyard, and like her neighbor Roy Meyer, she believes that someone should be held accountable for it.

Jantz lives in the 3800 block of 122nd Street NE in Marysville, and like Meyer, she found her basement flooding within a matter of minutes on the afternoon of Jan. 28.

“It was 5:30 p.m. when I first noticed it,” Jantz said.

“By 6 p.m., I’d gotten to the Arlington Hardware store just before it closed, to buy a sump-pump and a five-gallon bucket. Within an hour and a half of first noticing it, I had three inches of standing water in my basement. By 8 p.m., I’d called the fire department, but there wasn’t much they could do. My daughter pumped out 500 gallons with the shop-vac by 11:30 p.m. and the water level was still rising. That water just came in like a flood.”

In spite of Jantz’s brother digging a 60-foot-long

Fernalld stipulated that the upper income limit for filing at the Marysville Goodwill is $51,000, and that clients need valid photo IDs for themselves and original Social Security cards for all their claimants.

“We’ve had to turn people away some evenings, and we’re still down from the number of clients Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo we saw by this time last year,” Fernalld said.

FLOOD FROM PAGE 1 and Jantz is already dreading the power bill she’s going to get from running three dehumidifiers simultaneously to try and combat the mold that’s already started sprouting in her attic.

“My sump-pump was pumping 2,000 gallons an hour for 24 hours before the water started receding,” Jantz said. “I had to tear out 1,000 square feet of carpet, and take out all the cabinets and the hearth of the fireplace, and I can smell the sewer effluent from when people’s septic systems failed.”

Meyer likewise reported that the 100-foot-by-25-foot backyard of his parents’ property was under eight inches to a full foot of water.

“I was pumping for a solid week,” Meyer said. “For a while, I was literally working 24 hours a day to try and get it out.”

Jantz believes WinCo Foods, in the 3900 block of 116th Street NE in Marysville, exacerbated the flooding at least by pumping out an overflowing retention pond at the height of the storm, but Michael Read, vice president of public and legal affairs for WinCo, asserted that this water was pumped through a hose into another retention pond, near the Kohl’s store in the 3700 block of the same street.

“As per the city’s instructions, we will now pump our overflow into another retention pond even further away, but not because of this issue,” Read said. “It will be to use a retention pond with an even larger capacity. This is nothing new.

Everyone is experiencing the same issues here.”

City of Marysville Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen agreed,

pointing out that flooding is not an uncommon occurrence in the area due to the high ground water level of the region, which was compounded by the intensity of recent precipitation in the area.

“We had eight inches of rain in January, which is not normal,” said Nielsen, who actually agreed with Jantz that the sandy soil poses a problem. “WinCo’s system is totally separate from the water conveyance lines in this neighborhood, and their water flows south, whereas this neighborhood lies to the north of WinCo.” Nielsen met with Jantz, Meyer and roughly two dozen other residents of the neighborhood on Feb. 5, all of whom reported either standing water in their basements and/or failures of their septic systems. Since then, Nielsen has dispatched crews to check the conveyance lines to ensure that the flow of water out of the neighborhood is not being interrupted.

In the meantime, Denise Jantz has a carport full of foul-smelling carpets and a basement that’s been stripped to the bare concrete, while Meyer has an 80-year-old widowed mother living in a home that she and her husband bought 48 years ago, but which the sewer effluent has rendered “contaminated.”

“My insurance wouldn’t cover this even if I had flood insurance,” Jantz said. “It’s considered ‘groundwater intrusion,’ so it doesn’t even fall under the heading of a flood.

I’m supposedly at fault for not maintaining my property to prevent this.”

“My dad passed away just last year,” Meyer said. “My mom is already paying nearly all her money in taxes. Who’s going to pay for these damages? Who is responsible for this?”

Bail set at $500,000 for sex offender arrested after standoff in Marysville

MARYSVILLE — A convicted sex offender was charged with two counts of domestic violence — one for unlawful imprisonment with a weapon other than a firearm, and the other for fourth degree assault — by the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office on Feb. 1, after his Jan. 14 arrest for allegedly punching his girlfriend in the face and then barricading himself in the woman’s apartment in Marysville, with a knife and her 4-year-old daughter, for almost 13 hours before SWAT members broke through the door.

Jason Tryon — a 33-year-old Level 3 sex offender who was convicted of second degree rape of a child in 2005 and failure to register as an offender in 2011 — was jailed on $500,000 bail in Snohomish County Superior Court on Feb. 4, after pleading not guilty to the two felony charges.

Shortly before 4 a.m. on Jan. 14, Tryon’s neighbor called 911 to report that Tryon had threatened her with a knife, punched his girlfriend and was inside his

girlfriend’s apartment, in the 1300 block of Cedar Avenue in Marysville, with the knife and his girlfriend’s 4-year-old daughter. When police officers arrived on the scene, Tryon’s girlfriend explained to them that she and Tryon had gotten into an argument after smoking marijuana and methamphetamine, after which Tryon threatened to cut himself with a large kitchen knife and his girlfriend threatened to hit him with a metal baseball bat if he didn’t drop the knife.

According to Tryon’s girlfriend, Tryon grabbed the bat from her, threw her to the ground and punched her in the face, bloodying her nose, after which she ran to the apartment next door for help. The neighbor told officers that Tryon’s girlfriend knocked on her door shortly after 3 a.m., and when the neighbor attempted to retrieve the daughter of Tryon’s girlfriend from him, Tryon grabbed the handle of the knife in his waistband and told her to back off. The neighbor reported that the 4-year-old girl was repeatedly pleading with Tryon to let her leave, and after Tryon rebuffed the neighbor’s pleas to release the girl a second

time, the neighbor called 911.

Negotiators with the Marysville Police SWAT spent more than 12 hours communicating with Tryon, both face-to-face and via telephone, to try and convince him to let the girl go. Although Tryon had barricaded the apartment door with furniture, he went to the window to speak with officers, allowing them a view inside of the apartment.

Although the girl was found physically unharmed in the closet of the apartment when SWAT finally forced entry, she told a child interview specialist how scared she was when Tryon and her mom started fighting, as well as when Tryon refused to let her leave.

Tryon was under the supervision of the state Department of Corrections at the time of the standoff. According to the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office, he had no fixed address, and the conditions of his freedom included avoiding illegal drugs and staying away from children.

At the time of his arrest, he was already awaiting trial for moving from a Marysville home and failing to register as a sex offender at his new address.

You can help keep Marysville clean

A

few weeks ago, Chief Administrative Officer Gloria Hirashima and I met with a prominent real estate investor who had recently visited to walk around Marysville’s downtown and waterfront district. He is a smart entrepreneur who knows a thing or two about what it takes to help revitalize a downtown, because he has done it before.

While he found many favorable traits to match our own community’s vision for downtown, he said that all the large-scale planning to create an urban, pedestrianfriendly downtown are premature if you can’t first address the seemingly insignificant little things first.

Litter is high on that list.

Litter sounds like a simple enough problem to contain, yet all too often, a look around our neighborhoods, businesses, parks, sidewalks and streets says otherwise. Litter is a blight that can drag down neighborhoods, no different than the other community issues we are tackling, such as graffiti, potholes, and yard and building clutter visible from city streets and alleys.

Marysville has been working hard in recent years to inspire community pride through a variety of different actions and initiatives such as our annual Clean Sweep Week, Graffiti Paint Out, and Pride of Marysville Awards that honor residents and business people who take pride in their homes and property. But if we can’t first set a good example for ourselves, how can we create a good first impression for a corporate partner looking to invest, build or relocate here?

We all share in the responsibility.

Jon NehrinG Marysville Mayor Keeping Marysville clean is a priority of mine, as well as our residents of Marysville, and we all look forward to seeing Marysville sparkle as the spring season approaches. Here are just a few ways that you can help: Report litter — the city, through adoption of the state Uniform Litter Control Code and our Park Code, prohibits littering and enables the levying of fines in an effort to promote public cleanliness and clean parks.

Volunteer during Clean Sweep Week this April 21-28 — Clean Sweep is becoming a great tradition. It’s all about establishing civic pride, creating a better quality of life in Marysville and our downtown, and inspiring residents and businesses to take ownership of our neighborhoods not just for one week, but every week. Our goal with Clean Sweep is to create as much visible change as we can in a short period of time, and done successfully, transplant this same approach to other parts of the community. Keep informed regarding more details, coming in March.

During Clean Sweep Week, or any time year-round, start your own self-initiated neighborhood cleanup or community service project any time. The Council budgeted funds for a few neigh-

Smaller high schools, greater success

few years ago the talk of the town was the size of Marysville-Pilchuck High School — about 2,800 students on the only high school campus. Not many were happy with so many students in one school.

There were concerns about student safety, but just as unsettling was the knowledge that many of the students could go through school without really being known by school administration, counselors, and many teachers. There was very little in the way of personalized education focused upon the individual student. Counselors were swamped with the sheer numbers of students that they were expected to monitor toward graduation. The graduation rate hovered at just over 50 percent.

The school, which had received a grant to learn about smaller high schools, implemented a study of what schools should provide for each and every student. Through the work of

Guest Opinion Pete Lundberg teachers and staff at the school and district level, a set of guidelines were developed (Guiding Principles for Secondary Schools). It states that a school should be relationship driven; that each student should be known, valued and engaged. Curriculum should be rigorous, meeting district and state standards. Schools should have a relevant identity, one that is connected to relevant career pathways, and that they should partner with the community providing students real life experiences doing real work. Schools need to be accountable to their students, parents, guardians and our mission and vision. That

mission states that every student will be proficient in literacy and math; that they will graduate on time, and be prepared for success beyond high school.

As a result, the development of smaller high schools within the large high school campus began to take shape, and was implemented. In 2006, with an assist from the Marysville community in the passing of a successful bond, Marysville-Getchell High School campus was created, and four of the smaller high schools moved to the new campus. Now instead of one gigantic high school, we have eight smaller high schools.

Marysville-Pilchuck, the largest, has fewer than 1,200 students. Marysville Getchell is really four small schools, each with less than 400 students.

Professional Learning Communities in action

I

n the Arlington School District, teachers work in Professional Learning Communities (PLCs).

These PLCs are made up of grade level teachers (such as teachers in a school who all teach third grade) or teachers who teach the same subject (such as teachers in the high school who teach Algebra 1).

In the PLC model teachers work together interdependently to inform their professional practice in order to improve learning for all students.

Collaboration in the PLC model must be intentional and focused on four key questions regarding student learning: 1. What is it we want students to learn?

2. How will we know if they have learned it?

3. How will we respond when they don’t learn?

4. How will we respond when they

Guest Opinion Dianne Kirchner-Scott already know it?

The benefits to teachers who work in PLCs are numerous. The research cites gains in student achievement, higher quality solutions to problems, increased confidence among all staff, teachers support one another’s strengths and accommodate weaknesses, ability to test new ideas, more support for new teachers, and an expanded pool of ideas, materials and method (Little 1990).

Finding time for teams to meet is critical for PLCs to flourish. Teams

find time in many creative ways so that they can meet on a weekly basis with their PLCs. The time is usually found by teams meeting before or after school, or instead of holding a staff meeting. PLCs also need longer periods of time to meet that can’t be found within a weekly schedule.

District inservice days provide the necessary continuity for teachers to expand their building PLC to include their colleagues in like grades/subjects from across the district. These opportunities allow teachers from across the district to identify what all students in the Arlington School District “must know and be able to do” no matter what school they attend. We refer to these standards as our “guaranteed and viable curriculum” which are those standards considered essential for all students See ACTION, PAGE 5

fter being away from Lake Stevens for a few weeks I tuned I tuned my radio to AM 1090 to pick up Thom Hartmann, a favorite talk show host. Alas, no Hartmann, just sports babble.

I checked the frequency.

Yup, it was 1090. Where had Hartmann gone?

So I checked the web. Not only was Hartmann gone from Seattle’s KPTK Radio 1090 but from Portland’s radio KPOJ and also WTDY of Madison Wisconsin and he also turned up missing in San Francisco and Bangor, Maine. It seems that progressive radio is being selectively shut down in areas where the last election tipped strongly toward Democratic candidates. Might these changes be due to random broadcast economics or could something else be at work?

So I did some checking. In each case, the stations involved were controlled by Clear Channel and its subsidiaries — the ones that feature Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, Sean Hannity and Glenn Beck. The Clear Channel name refers to Class-A ratings which means they enjoy maximum freedom from interference from other stations and nighttime atmospheric issues. Another characteristic is that Clear Channel

This level of media control sounds so ... Italian! In Italy, four-time prime minister Silvio Berlusconi owns half of Italy’s TV channels, most local stations, the biggest advertising and publicity agency, Italy’s top publishing house, the nation’s most popular news magazine, major newspapers, banks, insurance, cinema, video distribution and Italy’s best soccer club, AC Milan.

With that clout, it wasn’t difficult for Berlusconi to promote himself into high office. He recently hinted that he might be aiming for a fifth election as Prime Minister.

With time and practice, Mitt Romney might do the same. His investment firm, Bain Capital owns Clear Channel and its subsidiary, CBS. Total holdings include 1,200 radio stations that dominate American markets from sea to shining sea. Clear Channel owns four stations in the greater Seattle area, including KPTK 1090 where the city website for details or call Public Works at 360-3638100.

PLCs use a number of structured protocols to do their work. These protocols create a level of accountability within a team as well as between teams and their building principals. Protocols may include team norms (commitments team members make to one another about their meetings). They may also include the examination of student work or to reflect on a teacher’s pedagogy. Protocols can facilitate data analysis, allow teachers to track student progress over time, or provide communication and accountability with other colleagues and supervisors.

How do PLCs know if students are learning? PLCs use formative assessments to inform them on how their students are doing.

Formative assessments are those assessments given to all students in a given grade or subject area to measure learning on specific

Hartmann once held the 1:00 to 3:00 slot.

The fact that Boston-based Thomas Lee Partners Inc., also holds an interest in Clear Channel weakens my argument. That firm has a record of large contributions to Democratic candidates including Obama. Nevertheless, the patterned erosion of progressive radio can’t help but raise suspicions in conspiracy-theory nuts like me.

There was a time when government thought that owning two stations or newspapers in a single market was unhealthy. Such limitations were relaxed in the 1990s rush to de-regulate, opening the door for Clear Channel to control four radio stations in Seattle. Current limitations hold a broadcast empire to less than 39 percent coverage of the nation but it doesn’t take a genius to understand that shrewd distribution can make that 39 percent a telling influence on public opinion.

I make a point of listening to conservative broadcasters to know what the Right is trying to do and how they’re trying to do it. As a lapsed Republican, I appreciate certain of their arguments. Likewise, I like to listen to progressive radio to get a sense of where leftist city takes everyone pitching in together — citizens, business owners, civic groups, churches and others.

At the end of the day, these good works will contribute to our broader initiative to create a safer, more attractive and inviting downtown to live or play, keep our momentum going on downtown revitalization, and improve the city’s business climate.

City seeks nominees for Volunteer of the Month award

MARYSVILLE — If you know someone whose commitment and service to the community makes them the perfect candidate for Volunteer of the Month, Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring wants to hear from you.

The Mayor’s Volunteer of the Month Award is an opportunity to recognize Marysville citizens for their volunteer contributions and commitment to community

service. Volunteers from all areas of Marysville are eligible. The voluntary service demonstrated should be unpaid and not an employment responsibility.

Now in its third year, the allages program has honored more than two dozen individuals and groups for their contributions, ranging from volunteering at the food bank and reading to school children to Eagle Scout park proj-

ects and community cleanups.

Eligible nominees should be committed to making Marysville a better community through voluntary personal service to citizens and meeting community needs, whether through direct service, board service or administrative volunteering. Individuals or groups may be nominated by an individual, agency, corporation or organization. Nominees

must be residents of Marysville.

Because this award program is ongoing, there is no deadline for submitting nominations.

Download the nomination form from the city’s website at http://marysvillewa.gov/volunteerofthemonth.

Send your completed form by postal mail in care of the Executive Assistant in the Mayor’s Office, 1049 State Ave., Marysville,

WA 98270, by fax to 360-6515033 or by email to Community Information Officer Doug Buell at dbuell@marysvillewa.gov.

Nehring honors volunteer award recipients at regular City Council meetings on either the second or fourth Monday of the month at 7 p.m. in the Council Chambers on the second floor of Marysville City Hall, located at 1049 State Ave.

Marysville invites citizens to give city park a name

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — With its online fundraising campaign wrapping up at the end of the month, the “Save the Olympic Theatre” campaign is already exploring other options to bridge the funding gap for the 73-year-old movie theater in Arlington.

William Frankhouser manages the online promotions for Norma Pappas, owner and operator of the Olympic Theatre in Arlington, and he’s set up a website, a Facebook page, an email contact and a phone number for community members to learn more or get in touch with the organizers of the campaign to save the theater.

“Right now, what we’re looking to do is find a digital projector that we can rent, on the low end of pricing, so that we can extend our fundraising deadline for the projector that we would eventually purchase,” Frankhouser said. “The problem is that the number of film copies of the movies that studios are releasing anymore is going down, which means that multiple remaining film theaters are vying for fewer film copies, and an ever-increasing number of movies are being released digital-only, and not on film at all.”

In the meantime, the Olympic Theatre has started

From left, Aspen and Sidney Vanderlaan joined their friend Matthew Kirchberg in enjoying the concessions and reclining seats at the Olympic Theatre during its Jan. 2 showing of ‘Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted.’ selling “Save the Olympic Theatre” stickers for $5 each, as well as setting out a collection bucket during showings.

“Every little thing helps,” Frankhouser said. “Norma said she set that bucket out one night and got $70. We’re even looking into printing ‘Save the Olympic Theatre’ T-shirts, but that hasn’t been confirmed yet. The point is, we’re looking into all sorts of avenues.”

As of Feb. 7, the online fundraising campaign on www.indiegogo.com/savetheolympictheatre had raised $2,472 online, not counting sticker sales and donations made at the Olympic Theatre itself, but with a deadline of Feb. 28 for the Indiegogo campaign, Frankhouser is thinking about what could be done with whatever

money is raised even if it doesn’t reach the campaign’s $30,000 goal.

“People have even talked about organizing a charity concert for the Olympic Theatre, but the problem there is that it’d take longer than the end of February to put together, so we’re thinking more of coming up with some smaller events before then,” Frankhouser said. “I’d hate to see this theater close, even if it’s just for a week, but Norma is really feeling the pinch.”

The “Save the Olympic Theatre” campaign has been meeting on an almost weekly basis recently at the Local Scoop restaurant in downtown Arlington, and for more information, you can log onto its Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ SaveTheOlympicTheatre.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville residents are being asked to put on their thinking caps, because if any of them have a gift for names, the city has a park that needs one.

In 2002, the city’s Parks Department acquired six acres of property known as the Doleshel Tree Farm. For several years, the Doleshel family operated a small Christmas tree farm during the holidays at the property, located on 67th Avenue NE near Kellogg Marsh Elementary.

Over the course of the past three years, volunteers with the Marysville Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and other community members have donated

hundreds of hours to clearing, cleaning and adding improvements to the site that will become a passive park when it opens later this year, according to Parks and Recreation Director Jim Ballew.

The city’s Parks and Recreation Advisory Board is seeking help from community members for name ideas. The Park Board has submitted three names to get the contest going: n Rita Matheny Park, in recognition of the former Marysville mayor. n Doleshel Tree Farm Park, recognizing its former use and ownership. n Don Arndt Park, in recognition of slain police offi-

cer Don Arndt.

The deadline for entries is 5 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 15.

The Park Board will make its final recommendation to the City Council. The winner will be credited in city media for the winning name, and invited to cut the ribbon with Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring when the park opens later this year.

Suggestions may be emailed to tmizell@marysvillewa.gov, voted on at the city’s website at http://marysvillewa.gov or postal-mailed directly to Marysville Parks and Recreation, 6915 Armar Rd., Marysville, WA 98270.

Tobacco Joes reopens

MARYSVILLE — Barely a year after opening Marysville Tobacco Joes in 2011, Michael Thorn closed the store’s doors last summer, but with the New Year came a new bid to make a go at his business, as Marysville Tobacco Joes reopened at its old location, at 450 State Ave. and 1508 Fifth St., on Jan. 28 of this year.

“We tried to cater to the roll-your-own crowd, but legislation and litigation tied up the usage of the machines,” Thorn said.

“We’re still hoping we can be grandfathered in, because our business was already using the roll-yourown machine when those laws were passed, and the federal government can’t take your property without due process, so that should allow the roll-your-own tobacco stores that were preexisting to haul their machines back out of storage.”

In the meantime, Thorn has branched out into offering custom glass and bamboo pipes, as well as

vaporizers and electronic cigarettes, the latter of which he’s already anticipating will be one of his store’s biggest sellers.

“We’ve had a lot of inquiries about the e-cigarettes,” Thorn said. “We’ve also talked about getting tobacco leaves to sell people, but we want to finish our dehumidifier before that.

We’ll be carrying a lot of consignment and novelty items that you can’t just get at any chain. We’ve also applied for our beer and wine license, but we’re not ready to start selling those just quite yet.”

Thorn took advantage of his store’s downtime to remodel and expand its interior by an additional 500 square feet, and he reassured his former customers from before the store’s closure last year that Marysville Tobacco Joes will continue to carry rollyour-own supplies such as tobacco and paper, but without the machine to make the roll-your-own process more convenient for them.

“We’ve still got that machine, just sitting

E-cigarettes are the biggest move the tobacco industry has made since then, so we’re obviously hoping that the FDA will rule that they’re less dangerous than smoking.”

Marysville Tobacco Joes is now open from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. seven days a week.

ARLINGTON — Arlington locksmith Anna Fouts is content to work out of her “office on wheels” — the Ford Escape that currently contains all of her equipment — because she believes that the most important part of her trade is simply lending a hand to others, as her mentor in the field did for her when she got started more than half a dozen years ago.

Still, Fouts’ lack of resources has forced her to send potential customers elsewhere, so she was gratified to be able to expand her service capacity on Feb. 4, when she received a shipment of roughly $5,000 worth of locksmithing equipment from Intuit’s “Small Business Big Wishes” campaign, which selected her as one of their 15 recipients as of December of 2012.

“I’ve had to turn away an average of 10 customers a week, just on car keys alone,” said Fouts, whose new tools will include two separate key cutters, one for code keys and another for

Fouts’ interest in locksmithing was initially inspired by the number of times she locked herself out of her home and office, and wound up calling on the services of 40-year Arlington locksmith Wayne Barber, who then agreed to teach her his trade when he learned that he had lung cancer. Fouts still uses the locksmithing tools she inherited from Barber, who passed away in 2007, and she still measures her own conduct against that of her altruistic mentor in their shared profession.

“I absolutely love to help people in need,” said Fouts, whose 24-hour emergency service calls send her to neighborhoods and backroads throughout

Arlington, Marysville and even Stanwood. “I get a lot of elderly folks who have locked themselves out of their houses or cars. A lot of the people I help out are living on fixed incomes, so they’re especially in need of my skills at an affordable price. Wayne gave me the opportunity of a lifetime when he got me into this job, so I do whatever I can to make sure the good that comes around goes around.”

“Anna’s Lock and Key” can be reached by phone at 425-418-8332 or via email at annaslockandkey@ aol.com. Her website at www.annaslockandkey.com includes not only her contact information, but also do-it-yourself solutions for people to solve a number of common lock and key problems on their own, as well as a list of Fouts’ favorite fellow local locksmiths.

MG’s Wilson leads on court

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Alexis Wilson is a senior at Marysville Getchell High School and a three-sport athlete who just finished up her season as captain of the Lady Chargers varsity basketball team and is looking forward to track and field this spring.

Known as Lexy to her friends and teammates, Wilson showed incred-

ible leadership and athletic progress during her final year playing high school basketball.

“She is the one that will push through tiredness or soreness and just keep going,” said her coach Shannon Grandbois. “She is constantly asking for ways to improve. She never stopped wanting to learn.

She just kept asking, ‘How can I improve? How can I get better?’”

ketball in second grade and continued to play through middle school.

“I was always tall for my age and people would ask, ‘Do you play basketball?’” said Wilson. “My dad played too so he helped me get started.”

Wilson took time away from the sport during her freshman and sophomore years, and focused instead on playing soccer. That was until one of her gym teachers inspired her to go back.

“I started to play basketball for MG as a junior,” she said. “At first the biggest struggle was the mental toughness. You couldn’t just hang your head when you made a mistake. That was hard for me because I’m usually pretty tough on myself, especially with sports. But you just have to play through it.”

Although mental toughness was one of her first challenges playing for the Chargers, it became one of her greatest characteristics.

“I think that’s where I grew the most. We went to Western [Washington University] for basketball camp this summer and played for 12 hours straight,” said Wilson. “It was tough but when we were done I knew I loved the game. I’m only 5-foot10 but I was ready to go out there and show those 6-foot-tall girls that I could play too.”

And she did. Wilson was chosen to be the captain of the team and her tenacity and eagerness to play

proved to be an inspiration to younger players.

“I’ve always been a positive person and I always wanted to play,” she said.

“I’d go to my coach and ask her to tell me what to work on.”

“She made huge improvements in strength and court ability,” said Grandbois.

“She was a part-time JV player her first year and went from that to being a full-time varsity starter all year. She was pivotal on the court. She was one of the foundations that we built the program around. They saw that work ethic and the other girls would rise to that level as well.”

The Lady Chargers played their final game against Oak Harbor at home on Wednesday, Jan. 30.

“The last game of the season the entire team played phenomenally,” said Grandbois.

It was tough for Wilson, who felt that the team had become a second family to her.

“That was one of the hardest nights to deal with,” she said. “It’s hard to know I won’t be able to play with them again.”

Although her physical presence will be gone from the team, she leaves a legacy behind.

“It’s only our second year building the program,” said Wilson. “I was always telling them that we are young and we are going to be a See WILSON, PAGE 11

Local bowlers head to state

MARYSVILLE — Athletes from three local high school bowling teams are gearing up for the WSBPA High School Varsity Championships on Feb. 16-17, at Acme Bowl in Tukwila, Wash.

The Marysville Arts and Technology first team, the Lakewood High School bowling team and two singles competitors from Marysville-Pilchuck High School have qualified for the championship event.

Bryson Parker, a Marysville-Pilchuck singles bowler, is in fourth place in Division A with a 197 average, while teammate Matt Altoff is in ninth place in Division B with a 154 average.

For Arts and Tech, the team consists of Jered James, Baylie Self, Joel

Scott, Chance Mair and Kylee Heath, and one alternate in case of injuries, Gary Dunham. The team average is 729.

Lakewood competitors are Ellen Dowell, Garrett Browning, Spencer Valley, Ryan Zaffarano, Charles Davis and Kimberly Pitts, with a team average of 715.

Parker, Mair and Self were three of the five members on the winning team for the Snohomish County All-Stars High School Tournament in December.

“Strawberry Lanes has graciously let both Lakewood and Arts and Tech keep practicing for the upcoming tournament,” said Christine Mair, Chance Mair’s mother. “We are all very grateful to them for their generosity.”

M-P’s Henry celebrates season

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — As basketball season comes to an end, Marysville-Pilchuck captain Nick Henry is looking back on the years he spent playing for the Tomahawks.

Henry has been playing competitive basketball since sixth grade, first starting out in recreational leagues and then AU teams. He played for the Tomahawks C team his freshman year and spent his sophomore year at the

junior varsity level. He moved up to varsity for his last two seasons.

“At first I’d say I struggled with the pressure of being a point guard,” said Henry, of what obstacles he’s overcome in his basketball career. “That and shooting, I think shooting is a struggle for everyone at first.”

But Henry never let the pressure of the game stop him from doing his best, and in the last few years, leading other players to do their best as well.

“I think I’ve grown the most in my attitude,” he said. “Even when things are going wrong I can grow and be positive.”

M-P’s head basketball coach Bary Gould thinks of Henry as a leader for the team.

“Nick is very well liked in our program amongst all of the players,” said Gould.

“He leads by example with how hard he works and by getting it done in the classroom and being a leader on campus as well. If there was

ever a player asking how to act in a certain area, we could point to Nick as to how it should be done properly.”

Gould is also proud of how skilled Henry has been as a varsity starter and how he’s improved throughout his basketball career.

“Nick is a defensive stopper who has had to defend the best guards in our league,” said Gould. “He is a two year starter that improved all four years in See HENRY, PAGE 11

play for the Tomahawks as well. He is also looking forward to attending a fouryear university in the fall but hasn’t settled on which one.

“I’m going to a fouryear but I’m still deciding between Arizona State University and [Washington State University],” said Henry. “I’m hoping to study mechanical engineering.”

Henry is thankful for the coaching staff he’s had throughout the years, especially at the varsity level.

“I enjoyed the season whether we won or lost,” he said. “I had fun with my team and my coaches. Our varsity coach, Bary Gould, is a great coach,” he said.

“We have an assistant coach, Todd Bevan, who is so inspirational. He is always positive.”

His coaches are proud of his sportsmanship and believe it will translate well into his life after high school.

“I wish Nick nothing but

the best,” said Gould. “He has learned a lot through the adversity we have fought through together the last few years. He will be stronger for it and will be successful in anything he puts his mind to do. My wish for him is that he continues to find the joy in the process of life. The joy that comes from relationships, friendships, and struggling through things to be better on the other side.

My wish for Nick is that he seeks to find out that the definition of success is in knowing he gave his best in everything. I want to thank Nick for all of the hard work and dedication he put in to becoming our leader and I want him to know he is a winner in my book.”

WILSON FROM PAGE 10 really great team someday.”

Grandbois agrees and is proud of Wilson’s attitude in the face of a tough season record this year.

“She always has a smile on her face and she is always happy,” she said. “You need to have that person on the team — it’s important because there are always going to be trials and tribulations.”

Wilson graduates this year and although she has not yet decided which university she will attend in the fall, she does know what she wants to in the future.

“I really want to major in early childhood education

and become a first or second grade teacher,” said Wilson, who volunteers as a reading buddy at Kellogg Marsh Elementary and is involved in her church’s worship team. Although her talents at leading and inspiring as an athlete will help her in the classroom, she isn’t taking all the credit.

“I would like to say that I am so lucky to have played for such a great coach,” said Wilson. “She always pushed us and believed in us.”

Grandbois hopes for the best for Wilson’s future.

“She is such a fun person, she is great with kids,” she said. “I think that no matter what she chooses to do in the future, she will be very successful.”

our program. Nick brought the leadership that we needed during practice and games. He is the type of player that does all the little things that make a team go but do not necessarily show up in the paper or in the box scores. He is a consistent ball-handler that gets us into our offenses. He is also, as I said before, our best ‘on-ball’ defender. Nick was constantly forced to guard guys that were quicker and more athletic than he is, but he was somehow able to keep them in front of him.

We talk about how defense is desire and he definitely has a deep desire to play at a high level. Nick is our ASB President so he brought a lot of leadership to the table for our program.”

In addition to being student body president, Henry is also an active member of

the National Honor Society and participates in a lot of community service projects.

“Last year we did a fundraiser for the Special Olympics and we are putting together a Bowl-a-thon this year,” he said. “All the money we raise goes to the Cocoon House for homeless kids or kids with a tough life.”

Overall, Henry is a player and a student with passion for everything he does.

“Nick is a pleasure to coach because he pours his heart and soul into the game,” said Gould. “Nick is always at practice with a great work ethic. He is someone I have depended upon heavily the last two years and he has really come through for us. He leaves a legacy of how things should be done with excellence.”

Henry is looking forward to the baseball season starting this spring, when he’ll

Reward for info in eagle deaths up to $20,250

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Department of Fish and Wildlife’s reward for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of the shooter of four bald eagles, found dead east of Granite Falls on Jan. 9, now totals $20,250.

Fish and Wildlife

Sgt. Jennifer Maurstad explained that the Campbell Group Timber Company contributed $6,500 to the reward, after the Stillaguamish Tribe of Indians had already donated $10,000 to the original reward amount of $3,750 raised by not only her own department, but also the Humane Society and Conservation Northwest.

“Unfortunately, we don’t really have any new information at this time,” Maurstad said. “We are still confident that someone knows something, or saw something, so no matter how insignificant they might think it is, we’d appreciate any information, and we’re asking them to do the right thing and report it.”

In addition to being a misdemeanor under federal law, killing an eagle is also a state crime, with a maxi-

mum penalty of $1,000 and 90 days in jail, as well as a $2,000 fine per eagle.

To report any informa-

tion related to the deaths of these eagles, call 1-877933-9847 or email reportpoaching@dfw.wa.gov.

“This is a chance for our community to come together and eat good food, bid on great gift items at our silent auction, and

enjoy locally made baked goods, all while supporting Safe Harbor,” said Julie Vess, executive director at Safe Harbor.

Safe Harbor relies heavily on this pancake fundraiser to raise money for life-saving medical programs and services for patients who

are underinsured. In addition to financial contributions, an anonymous donor has offered a $5,000 matching grant at the pancake breakfast.

Artist Jack Gunter is donating an original painting called “Victoria Straits” for the silent auction.

Name: Nugget Animal ID: 18896836 Breed: Domestic Short Hair - Calico Age: 6 Years Gender: Female Color: White/Orange Spayed/Neutered: Yes Hello, I'm Nugget. I've recently had some medical attention. I had a non-cancerous cyst removed from my back & once the hair grows back, you won't be able to see a thing. I also had a dental cleaning while here. My foster family says I am very mellow & I purr up a storm while being petted. I am shy in new situations so I will need a quiet household at first.

Name: Mac Animal ID: 18902351 Breed: Border Collie Age: 10 Years Gender: Male Color: Black/White Spayed/Neutered: Yes Mac is one smart cookie. He loves tossing his big red ball back and forth like he's playing soccer with his family members & could do it for hours. He loves other dogs and needs to go to a home with dogs. He knows sit and shake, but sometimes get distracted & gets focused on one thing at a time, like when he's playing soccer.

Mac would do well w/any family as he likes cats too.

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

All cats are tested for FIV/FeLV.

“I Can’t Live With the Excruciating Foot and Leg Pain!”

Announcing a new, high tech method for the treatment of Peripheral Neurpothay of the feet, leg or hands...

Here’s What Some Patients Have Said About the Treatment……

“My feet either felt painfully encased in ice or they felt like there were a thousand razor blade cuts on the top of each foot. I was diagnosed with severe diabetic neuropathy by a specialist who told me there was nothing that could be done! Then, I met Dr. Peseau, and began his program and after 4 treatments my foot pain suddenly stopped!” ~ Patient K.T., Age 58

“D

oc, I can’t live with this excrutiaing foot and leg pain!”.

When you hear this from a patient it gets your attention. Typically, I get the worst of the worst pain patients but when I recently heard this exclamation, my attention was particularly peaked. Let’s call this patient Ken. Ken is 58 years old with SEVERE neuropathy in his feet.

He had been told by his MD that his neuropathy was permanent and was given increasingly strong medicines for his symptoms. His life was literally as he described it, “a living hell.”

Clearly he was coming to the end of his rope.

The nerves in his legs and feet were damaged and he was in HORRIBLE CONSTANT PAIN. “I Can’t Sleep at Night” He complained to me, “I can’t sleep at night because my feet feel like they have a thousand razor blade cuts which prevents me from falling asleep every night”.

During the day, most neuropathy patients can hardly walk as every step sends shooting pain like lightening from the feet. Ken had numbness in his feet and couldn’t feel his feet very well and was developing progressive balance problems.

He was worried he might fall and injure himself.

He told me he could not go on living with this constant, debilitating pain that had made every day increasingly difficult, to the point where he had to retire from his teaching job!

I Had to Help This Man I recently was fortunate enough to discover a new non-invasive and non-drug treatment for severe and constant foot, leg and arm pain caused by neuropathy. I learned about a new type of non-surgical and painless treatment that was working wonders with severe, constant chronic pain. Including pain caused by neuropathy.

Due to Federal law some exclusions may apply.

“I was miserable standing for any length of time or sitting. I could not sleep and had constant leg pain and weakness in the leg and foot. Actually, I was thinking I was crazy! Now, after starting Dr. Peseau’s Neuropathy Program, I am sleeping at night, can go shopping without excruciating pain, my posture in much better and I mentally feel much better. My results are UNBELIEVABLE! After 1 1/2 years of ping pong between specialists only to be told they could do nothing for me, now I have renewed hope and have seen benefits after only 10 visits of treatment. I wish I would have done this sooner! I learned more about my back pain and spine in two visits with Dr. Peseau than in a year with other medical professionals. I feel they truly listen and care. ” ~ Patient A.S., Female, Age 54

It had the ability to quickly increase circulation to an area (much needed in a neuropathy patient). It could reduce and/or eliminate pain in as little as a few treatments and was changing the lives of patients with severe debilitating pain in offices across the nation.

Based on the information about this new type of technology and because of the almost immediate type of pain relief, I had to have this technology in my facility no matter what the cost.

I invested in and implemented these new treatments and we now offer them to neuropathy patients.

I traveled to another state and enrolled in extensive training. My staff and I witnessed some amazing reductions and eliminations of some of the worst pain syndromes I had ever seen...and it was FAST! After just a few treatments on patients with extreme and chronic pain of the worst kind, including neuropathy of the feet, legs and hands, we had patients telling us how their pain levels had decreased and they were shocked. Some of them had their pain even alleviated after only a few treatments.

We Were Able to Reduce or Even Eliminate Neuropathy Pain of the Worst Kind Using the latest and most recent technologies,

Don’t let numbness, tingling and pain hold you back from enjoying life.

I now offer a non-invasive, non-surgical and painless neuropathy pain treatment. I help patients reduce or even eliminate their neuropathy pain using nutritional therapies, deep tissue super-pulsed cold laser treatments, combined with specific non-surgical, noninvasive spine decompression therapy aimed at reducing or eliminating pressure on nerves exiting the spine that control foot and hand function.

So, Just How Can You See if Dr. Peseau’s NEUROPATHY PAIN RELIEF TREATMENT Will Help YOU to Reduce or Eliminate Your Foot, Leg or Hand Pain?
