Walk MS raises awareness, funds

TULALIP — As rain, wind and chilly temperatures plagued Western Washington on Saturday, April 13, hundreds of participants from around Snohomish County withstood the weather to complete the Walk MS in support of those with multiple sclerosis — a disease which, like rain, is more prevalent in the Pacific Northwest.

Marysville’s Samantha Love and her team co-captain Linda Goldberg represent the varying degrees of the disease.

“This is all about awareness. We show both sides of the spectrum. I’m an advanced MS person and Samantha is in the early stages. Hopefully, we can find something that can stop it cold,” said Goldberg. “I think

the awareness is important.

Because we are both so fabulous on a regular basis, nobody really understands what it really means and all of the different levels of MS. We did all our fundraising through small donations.

We’ve had over 200 individual donations to our team, which means that there are now 200 more people who understand and have shared with everybody else the story of MS. We are not invisible as we used to be.”

Goldberg has known Love since she was a child and their diagnoses brought them closer together.

“My daughter was friends with Samantha’s sister Lauren, and Samantha was her little sister. We knew her as a little child running around being crazy, and then SEE MS, PAGE 2

World War II veteran Leo Hymas looks at the Army Certificate of Appreciation for Patriotic Civilian Service that he received at the Marysville Armed Forces Reserve Center on April 13, in recognition of the stories that he’s shared about liberating Buchenwald 68 years ago.

MARYSVILLE — Leo Hymas was a 19-year-old infantryman in the U.S. Army when he took part in the liberation of the Nazi concentration camp Buchenwald on April 9, 1945.

Hymas’ voice still quavered 68 years later, on April 13 in the Marysville Armed Forces Reserve Center, as he told the tale of what he saw that day, as part of the 364th Expeditionary Sustainment Command’s observance of the Holocaust Day of Remembrance.

Before he had even reached Buchenwald, Hymas’ time in the service had been harrowing, as a small-town Idaho boy found himself

drafted into World War II at the age of 18, in the years following the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor, during which he’d seen gas and meat rationed, and the production of new tires and new cars halted completely.

“My drill sergeant was the meanest man I’d ever met,” Hymas said. “I got so homesick. I missed my dad, my mom, my friends, even the cows on my farm. Unlike the guys I saw in uniform in my hometown, I didn’t even get to date a pretty girl, or an ugly one,” he added, drawing laughter from the crowd.

To maintain operational security, Hymas wasn’t allowed to inform his family of his SEE VETERAN, PAGE 2

she grew up and was diagnosed with MS at age 20, and I had been diagnosed probably about the same time,” said Goldberg. “Everybody started emailing me and saying that Samantha was just diagnosed, so we started emailing and Facebooking each other, and supporting each other. This year we came together because

she was having struggles with her MS, as was I, and she said, ‘You’re joining the team, aren’t you?’ and she talked me into it. Now we are lovely co-captains and best of buddies, I’m her stand-in mom, and she’s my stand-in cheerleader and my energy infusion and best-bud. She is keeping us together.”

Love was happy to have Goldberg join her on their team.

“I did the walk last year,” she said. “We had a really

small team with only four people including myself, and we only raised about $800.

This year, as soon as Linda signed on, it got humongous and we have more than 27 team members and $18,000 raised in a month and a half.

We just want a cure. People will say, ‘Oh, but you look so good, we would have never guessed you had MS,’ and it’s not until we are in the hospital that they realize that it’s not going away.”

Goldberg was not sure if

Kurtz hoped that the Walk MS would raise awareness in the community.

“I think that with the weather the way it is, we could have had a lot of people not show up, but it just shows that the MS community here is strong and people are willing to come out and support their community, and it’s great.

There’s a lot of people here.

she would be able to participate in the walk this year because she was struggling with her illness.

“I just got out of the hospital yesterday,” she said. “I wouldn’t miss this, though.

We are energized and ready to go.”

The National MS Society hosted seven walks across the state of Washington on April 13, and another in Seattle on April 14.

“You’d just slide back and forth on the floor, and that smell,” Hymas said. “I thought to myself, I don’t want to do this, I’m just a kid.”

As part of the 97th Infantry in Patton’s Third Army, Hymas was partnered with Jimmy DiMarco, a city boy from Boston whose accent initially chafed Hymas’ country-boy sensibilities, but they soon became close friends as they fought across Germany, until DiMarco caught a round and died in front of Hymas.

“He gave his life for me and all of you sitting here,” Hymas said. “If Hitler had won that war, he’d bragged that Nazis would walk the halls of Congress.”

Hymas’ resolve to defeat the Nazis was further strengthened when he saw a starving little girl on the streets, before he took part

MS is the most prevalent in the Northwest, and you may think that you don’t know someone living with MS, but you probably do. Once somebody in your family or a friend has been diagnosed, it affects you and it affects everybody. This is a great event for people living with MS to come out and see how many people support them. People are just so excited to see all the encouragement, and it makes them feel really good.”

in the attack in Weimar, and all he could do was give her two pieces of chocolate.

In Buchenwald itself, he smelled burning human flesh for the first time, a smell he couldn’t identify because he’d never smelled it before, just as he’d never imagined that concentration camps such as Buchenwald existed before he witnessed its horrors for himself.

“I saw stacks of naked, rotting bodies, and collections of skin that had been turned into lampshades,” Hymas said. “I cannot tell you the evil we found.”

Among Hymas’ discoveries were a host of SS officers who were changing into civilian clothes. For helping to capture 91 prisoners, he received the Bronze Star.

“We overcame the worst evil we have any record of, but your enemies are spiritual in nature,” Hymas told the military members in the audience. “Your enemies include racism, and intolerance of others just because they’re different, but they are a challenge that you will overcome.”

Before he received an Army Certificate of Appreciation for Patriotic Civilian Service, Hymas revealed that his uniform had finally gotten him a date with a pretty girl, and 65 years ago, he married her.

Cascade Valley Hospital considers affiliation and Skagit counties, and have been conducting community forums to hear from the public what they think about proposals to affiliate with either the ProvidenceSwedish organization, PeaceHealth, the University of Washington Medical Center, Virginia Mason or MultiCare Health of Pierce County. The Rainier Conference Room at Cascade Valley Hospital served as the site for one such forum on April 10.

“Before any such affiliation occurs, we need to make sure that our visions fit together,” said Jones, who noted that a number of attendees of the April 10 public forum, including a few Cascade Valley Hospital employees, expressed reservations about the fact that two of the potential affiliation partners are Catholic health systems that restrict certain services according to church doctrine. “These are credible citizens with very legitimate concerns. One of our nurses even said that we should be about science and not faith-healing.”

The tentative deadline for these potential affiliation

partners to submit their request proposals is April 26, although Jones deemed that a flexible date. Jones likewise emphasized that the nature of any potential affiliation has yet to be determined, and could range from “a loose handshake agreement” to one organization buying out the others, although he conceded that any such arrangement would likely result in the loss of a certain measure of local control.

“If none of those organizations meets our needs, then we’ll have to go with a Plan B, which we don’t have right now,” Jones said.

If only one or two of them look attractive, it’ll still take at least a few months to sort things about. If they all look attractive, we’ll talk to each one. The bottom line is, it would almost take a miracle for this to get resolved in 2013. It’s more likely going to happen in 2014 or 2015, and yes, as the process progresses, we’ll be soliciting additional public input. People will have lots of questions, and we can’t answer of a lot of them right now.”

ARLINGTON — According to Cascade Valley Hospital and Clinics CEO Clark Jones, smaller hospitals such as Cascade Valley are facing an uphill battle to stay in business if they don’t affiliate themselves with larger health care systems.

“Like fire departments and districts, affiliation could offer us cost savings to counteract decreased income and reimbursements, as well as increased expenses,” Jones said. “An additional concern for hospitals is that our whole system is changing. Firefighting isn’t going through a sea change right now, but health care is. We’ve been told that the costs are unsustainable and that Medicare’s insolvency is pending, but no one has done anything but talk so far.”

While Jones declined to offer an opinion on the Affordable Care Act, he nonetheless predicted that it would result in Cascade Valley and other hospitals caring for more patients than ever before, “but with no more money for

it.” Likewise, while Jones identified three cost-cutting alternatives under the ACA — results-based reimbursements, electronic health records and accountable care organizations — he noted that each one comes with its own set of expenses, from the system of results reporting required by the resultbased reimbursements to the maintenance of even existing electronic health records systems, such as those that have already been established at Cascade Valley.

“As for accountable care organizations, they’re larger networks of medical care providers and facilities offering whole spectrums of services,” Jones said. “What’s driving a potential affiliation is that Cascade Valley provides a relatively narrow band of services, and by affiliating with the Island and Skagit Valley hospitals as part of a much larger organization, we could achieve economies of scale and offer services that have never been available to our communities.”

Developing a Master Facilities Plan

A

group of Arlington Public Schools stakeholders including parents, community members and staff, will soon begin the process of developing a Master Facilities Plan (MFP). The MFP will be a comprehensive evaluation of our schools, support facilities, properties and major assets; enrollment trends; educational space needs; health and safety of our students, staff and public; and the needs of our community. The MFP will be used to advise the School Board of our current and future facility needs for the next decade.

Arlington Public Schools operates nine schools: Arlington High School, Weston High School, Stillaguamish Valley School, Haller Middle School, Post Middle School, Kent Prairie Elementary, Eagle Creek Elementary, Presidents Elementary, and Pioneer Elementary. Other buildings included are three support facilities: District Office, Transportation, and Child Nutrition and Support Services. In addition, the District owns one closed school (Trafton Elementary), an aging wooden stadium (Hartz Field) and several parcels of land (mostly donated timberland).

Weston High School and Transportation are two facilities currently leased from the Arlington Airport.

The MFP team will use the expertise of architects, engineers and other professionals to guide them through the process of estimating costs, understanding building systems, evaluating facility concerns, and focusing on educational needs. The 2010

GUEST OPINION SID LOGAN Strategic Plan will guide the team’s work. The long range target most relevant to the MFP is No. 3: “Develop and implement practices that manage facilities and resources (both tangible and intangible) with efficiency and prudence.”

With community support from passing a bond measure in 2000, great improvements have been made to our facilities in the past decade. Since 2002, the District has constructed two new elementary schools, a new high school, a new middle school using an existing gymnasium and music building, a new stadium and a performing arts center. During this same period, a larger building was leased and remodeled for Weston High School. Although our community’s children have greatly benefited from these wonderful new facilities, our older facilities have continued to age. Thus, much of the work of the MFP team will focus on our older buildings. One of the most critical issues will be developing and recommending next steps for Post Middle School. Post was constructed in 1981 (with one building added in 1993) and is a campus of four separate single-story buildings with covered walkways.

Apodment: The new word in real estate

T

he Snohomish City Council is turning thumbs-down on a proposal to develop compact housing units in an existing building. The units would be “apodments,” mimicking a trend toward minimum size rentals in Seattle and elsewhere. The Snohomish proposal calls for 20 units of 200 square feet each.

With 15 proposals for new apodments in just one district of Seattle, the affordable little havens might pop up in suburbs — like Marysville and Arlington. What’s an acceptable definition for apodments? San Francisco set a limit of 150 square feet per unit while New York is toying with 275 square feet. Which means there’s plenty of latitude to play with when defining what local apodments might be.

Why the fuss over apodments?

People live in hotel rooms and studio apartments that aren’t much bigger. Aging motels cater to long-

OPINION

BOB GRAEF

term residents so apodments are nothing new. What is new is that a growing need for affordable number is offsetting much of the discomfort of cramped quarters.

In case you haven’t noticed, housing is trending away from McMansions. According to the Wall Street Journal, the 2007 average home of 2,500 square feet is expected to shrink to 2,152 by the year 2015. Scarcity of land is forcing homes into lots so small that lawns can be mowed with kitchen scissors and tenants can reach from windows to knock on neighbor’s walls. The rise of apodments is one more sign of 21st Century real

estate minification. Here are a few reasons: ■ Parents wanting grown children out from under their roofs.

■ Minimum wage-earners unable to afford $1,000 per month apartments.

■ Off-campus housing for students.

■ Cheap bases for business people in other cities.

■ Anyone suffering crippling financial reverses.

■ Anyone attempting to live on Social Security.

■ People opting for minimal consumption as a lifestyle.

■ People who can’t care for larger dwellings.

■ Temporary or transient workers.

The definition of an apodment is still pretty fluid. Some have little more than a bed, a toilet and a sink SEE GRAEF, PAGE 5

Listening to happiness

hink about this — if someone were to ask you to name the single most profound sentence ever written in the English language, what would you say? I can only imagine the fascinating variety of responses we would come up with and the great conversations they would inspire. To kick things off, I’d like to share the sentence that gets my vote hands down.

“We hold these truths to be selfevident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

Not only did this statement provide the original justification for our existence as an independent nation, but it irrevocably linked us to all of humanity and provided

GUEST OPINION JIM STRICKLAND the philosophical foundation for democracy itself. And what is more, this sentence did something that we tend to lose sight of in the hustle and bustle of our daily lives — it enshrined the pursuit of happiness as a natural aspiration that deserves protection as a fundamental human right.

Why is happiness so important?

Because happiness is a clue to how we are supposed to be living.

Human beings have evolved emotions to help guide our behaviors in

the direction of survival and wellbeing. When we take emotions like happiness seriously, we are listening to wisdom that has been built into our species over millions of years.

We ignore happiness at the peril of our very existence.

A good example of the way our emotions provide clues to how we should live is noted in Bill McKibben’s book, Deep Economy.

McKibben asks “Why do people so often look back on their college days as the best years of their lives? Usually, it’s not because their classes were so fascinating. More important is the fact that they lived more closely and intensely in a community than ever before or since (college is the four years in an American life when we live roughly SEE STRICKLAND, PAGE 5

GRAEF FROM PAGE 4 and shower. Cooking and laundry may be in the unit or consigned to common areas. Storage and parking will remain the big issues.

Apodments are much the same as what were known as efficiency units. Floor plans and amenities can be similar to what’s found in Seattle’s posh Hearthstone retirement community. Some are just well-equipped motel rooms. While they work well for single residents, couples would need storage lockers for bikes, golf clubs, seasonal clothing and miscellaneous sports and hobby stuff. High ceilings would encourage overhead storage.

This trend toward

minimal housing is a timely movement that serves economic realities of a growing segment of society. With the bottom 50 percent in America’s economy holding only 2.5 percent of the nation’s wealth, most can’t afford traditional homes. If apodments can provide the basics while keeping them from sinking further into debt, then so be it.

Unlike their parents’ generation, most young families don’t see five-acre suburban estates as attractive. Prevailing wages fail to qualify many as buyers or renters of traditional housing. With so much of the nation’s income tied up by so few, a large part of working America must have lowercost housing options.

LOGAN FROM PAGE 4 sixth, seventh and eighth grade students.

Among the several systems that are in need of immediate improvement at Post are heating and ventilation, roofing, campus security and technology infrastructure.

The MFP team will be tackling needs and issues with other older buildings including heating and ventilation, aging classroom and gymnasium flooring, paving, technology infrastructure and roof replacements.

Our newer facilities also have needs that the MFP will address. Many community members have expressed an interest in installing artificial turf at John Larson Stadium. Such an improvement would allow for greater use of this facility while providing additional safety for our athletes. As programs change, the educational needs of our facilities also change. Such is the case with our drama program and our set construction classes, which would benefit greatly from additional

Mobility figures into this. When Boeing cuts 800 jobs in Everett, as it has announced it will, a few in that 800 will find work in other cities while families remain behind. Where will the travelers live? How might families afford two homes if not for something like an apodment?

The trend poses a task for city planners. They need to develop minimal guidelines for dwelling units. Hopefully, municipal codes will lean hard on safety and community issues and tread lightly on size. Need for squarefootage varies. While society’s recluses might find life complete within 100 square feet, socially inclined people could feel cramped in 250 square feet. Different strokes

shop space.

District staff have been maintaining and improving all of our facilities with the funding that has been available. In the past decade, the District has made significant improvements to lighting systems to improve illumination while reducing consumption as well as installing and updating technology infrastructure to support our classrooms. During this same time, we have been busy replacing boilers, sidewalks, gutters and siding, while constantly performing routine maintenance.

Our Master Facilities Planning team will begin work April 2013 with the goal of making recommendations to the School Board in early 2014. If you have any questions or comments regarding this process or our facilities, please contact me.

Patrick Ray Hill (Ricky-Ray) September 5, 1950 — February 8, 2013

Pat r ick Ray Hill (Ricky-Ray), passed away on February 8th, 2013 at Providence Everett Medical Center from complications associated with diabetes.

He was 62 years of age, and resided in Marysville, WA. Patrick was born on September 5th, 1950 in Stuttgart-Bad Constatt, Germany to Basil and Gladys Hill.

He married Patricia Irvin on December 18, 1981 in Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho. He proudly served in the U.S. Army for 20 years. During that time he deployed to Vietnam for two tours, earning both the Vietnam Service and Campaign medals. Subsequently, he served in the National Guard as a heavy equipment operator and an M1A1 Abrams Tank gunner. He then worked for the mass transit company First Transit for 20 years, where he also served as a union

representative. Patrick was a dreamer, and had a plethora of hobbies to include RC planes, gunsmithing, reading and watching science fiction, participating in the Highland Games in Seattle, and astronomy. He planned on moving to Arizona with the hopes of living near the Kitt

Peak Observatory, but never made it. He had a magnetic personality, and his desire to live and experience life was infectious.

Patrick was survived by his wife Patricia (Marysville, WA), his daughter Chandra and her husband James Neils (Hauser Lake, ID), his son John and his wife Samantha Hill (Wilmington, NC), Patricia’s daughter Danielle Buettner, and her son Michael and his wife Michelle Irvin.

He was also survived by his grandsons Clayton Hill, Walter and William Neils, and his sister, Vicki Hill.

He was further survived

by Patricia’s grandchildren, Haley Henderson, Michael Jr. and Christopher Irvin, Kenneth and Devin Buettner, and great granddaughter Keira.

Patrick’s interment will be held at the Medical Lake National Veterans Cemetery at a date and time to be determined. For more information, please send emails to: rickyray121881@ gmail.com

for different folks. Again, the sticky issue is parking.

Parking is an issue where neighbors to the Snohomish project might have a legitimate gripe. The proposal would have 25 living units in a property that wasn’t designed to host 25 or more cars, creating a prescription for overnight parkers clogging street-sides.

For some decades, low income workers employed in city cores found affordable

housing in the hinterland.

Cheap gas and a slot in a trailer park in Sultan or Fall City made it work. Trouble is, gas got expensive and trailer parks were sold to become suburban estates.

And now, certain downtown properties lacking that highrollers’ need for image pizzazz lie vacant, creating an opportunity for developers of low-income rentals.

Until our economy gets straightened out, this

STRICKLAND FROM PAGE 4 as we’ve evolved to live).” I suppose evolution never considered the rising costs of a college education, but you get the idea.

When something feels right, there is usually a good reason.

So what does this mean for how we set priorities in our society? In his TED Talk on The Happy Planet Index, Nic Marks makes a compelling case that GDP is a misleading and grossly inadequate indicator of progress that fails to tell us much about quality of life for the average person.

He quotes Robert Kennedy in saying that “The gross national product measures everything except that which makes life worthwhile.” Marks goes on to suggest we put some thought into designing a new national accounting system based on such important factors as social justice, sustainability, and people’s happiness and wellbeing. His company, the New Economics Foundation, is doing just that.

This got me thinking about how we measure success in education. Sure, test scores have their place. But do they tell us

could be a win-win situation. Workers could swap far-flung cheap housing for cheap housing near their jobs, cutting the number of commuters. Homelessness might be reduced.

Abandoned buildings would find a new use—if only the problem of parking could be solved.

Comments may be addressed to robertgraef@

comcast.net.

everything we need to know — namely, are our children learning what makes life worthwhile? Are we paying attention to the emotional indicators that help our children tell the difference between what is of lasting value and what is not? Are we teaching them to trust their own inner voice, or are we demanding that they ignore this intuitive wisdom in the service of someone else’s agenda? When was the last time we asked students if they were really happy — and actually listened to them?

No, our emotions are not infallible guides, but they are guides nonetheless.

They are clues to how we find lives worth living and work worth doing. In helping our children responsibly define and pursue happiness, both for themselves and others, we are teaching them a truth so fundamental and profound as to have been declared self-evident. Our schools, and our community, must create the conditions that make this pursuit possible.

Mayor honors those who volunteer in the community

MARYSVILLE — Along with other city leaders across the country, Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring proclaimed Tuesday, April 9, as the Mayor’s Day of Recognition for National Service, to recognize the positive impact of national service in Marysville, and to thank those who volunteer their time and energy.

“Volunteer service to others is a hallmark of the American character, and central to how we meet our challenges in our community, and across the nation,” said Nehring, who added that volunteerism has increasingly become a costeffective strategy for meeting city needs, especially during tough economic times, and

that city initiatives such as the ongoing Mayor’s Volunteer of the Month program are among the many ways to highlight the contributions and dedication of hard-working volunteers.

Through national service networks and organizations such as AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, and the Corporation for National and Community Service, participants bolster civic, neighborhood and faith-based organizations that Nehring deemed vital to the country’s economic and social well-being. National service also leverages nonfederal resources to strengthen community impact and increase the return on tax-

payer dollars.

In 2012 in Snohomish County, 1,000 Retired and Senior Volunteer Program

volunteers contributed more than 181,000 hours of volunteer service. In Marysville, 67 of these volunteers served

19,952 hours at 10 locations, including the Ken Baxter Community Center, the police department’s Marysville

Volunteer Program, the Marysville Community Food Bank and the local Boys & Girls Club.

City dedicates mural to firefighter Rudy Wright

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — Dozens of sports-lovers, firefighters and community members gathered at the Rudy Wright Memorial Field on Saturday, April 13, for the unveiling of a mural dedicated to a man who gave his life for his community — Rudy Wright.

Wright owned Rudy’s Recreation, a sporting goods

store on State Avenue, and was a lifetime supporter of children’s sports. Since he worked in close proximity to the fire station, he often responded to calls as a volunteer firefighter. It was in this act of selflessness that Wright’s life was cut short on Nov. 3, 1970, when he was struck by a vehicle on Interstate 5 while on duty.

“I didn’t get to play on this field, but I did get to coach on this field, and for most

of you who have grown up in this community, I suspect that’s true for you,” said Jim Ballew, Marysville Parks and Recreation director. “We are here to dedicate some time and memory to a man who dedicated his life to our to our safety and well-being, which in turn cost him his life.”

The mural was funded by the Marysville Fire Foundation, the Marysville Firefighters Association

and the International Association of Firefighters Local 3219. For the dedication ceremony, the Marysville Fire District Honor Guard presented the colors, as local firefighter Keith Taylor sang the national anthem. The Honor Guard then ascended the steps up to the top of the third base stands to prepare for the unveiling. Leo Carlos, president of Marysville Little League, spoke during the ceremony, which was meant to precede a baseball game, though the weather prevented it.

“It’s still a great day for what we are doing for Rudy Wright,” said Carlos. “We at Little League understand what Rudy Wright did for us as a firefighter, and having that mural permanently on third base will just remind the community. I’m going to be honored and happy every time I drive past that mural and know that I was part of it.”

Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring spoke to the crowd about Wright’s life as a Marysville resident.

“It is so fitting that we have this mural honoring Rudy Wright at Rudy Wright Memorial Field,” he said. “He was a very sincere individual who would give himself to volunteer. Rudy was a Marysville-Pilchuck High School graduate. He

went into business on his own ... I know he would love to have this mural right here where kids are all playing sports. The tragic part of this story is the day that Rudy gave his life in service to his community. Even though that was 43 years ago, it still strikes us today as a sobering thing, and it is fitting that we remember Rudy Wright, who gave his life.”

Nehring and Patty Pendleton, Wright’s daughter, counted down from three as the Honor Guard unveiled the mural, which had been painted by local artists Gene and Sheri Waggoner.

“I was surprised,” said Pendleton, of her reactions to the mural idea. “I found out in December and I was definitely surprised after all these years.”

The field had been named for Wright immediately after he was killed. “The accident was terrible for me and our family. I’m proud of him.

He was a good person and a good dad. It’s unbelievable that they would do this for him after all those years. It’s wonderful. I just wish my mother was alive to see it.

I love it.”

Gene and Sheri Waggoner began painting the mural in January. The painting depicts Wright and another firefighter helping young

Cougars impress at Pasco, Solberg

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

PASCO — Cougar athletes made a trip to Eastern Washington on Saturday, April 13, to compete in the largest oneday high school track and field meet in the nation.

“There are teams from all over — Washington, Oregon, Idaho — and the standards are very stiff to get in,” said Lakewood coach Jeff Sowards. “You go to a meet like that to prepare for the state meet.”

The Pasco Invitational drew more than 100 schools from Washington, Oregon and Idaho, and Lakewood qualified 20 athletes for the event.

The boys distance medley team of Preston Davis, Drew Cabales, Douglas Davis and Alex Cooper took sixth place, with a time of 11:02.47.

Senior Ariel Jensen took eighth place in the girls 400-meter race with a time of 59.76. Junior Tristan Nelson took 13th place in the boys discus with a throw of 137-04.

Junior Skylar Cannon took 15th place in the girls javelin with a final throw of 109-05.

Junior Andrew Stich took 15th place in the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 41.64. The girls distance medley team of Britney Albro, Stephanie Smith, Darby Throndsen and Rachel Sowards took 16th place with a time of 13:57.32. Sophomore Brett Bustad took 29th place in the boys triple jump with a distance of 39-11.5.

Senior David Otte took 30th place in the boys shot put with a final distance of 43-1.5. Junior Mitchell Darrah took 41st place in the 3,200-meter race with a final time of 10:21.73.

DeAsia Callanan took 43rd place in the girls long jump with a final distance of 13-03. Freshman Josh Dickey took 32nd place in the 100-meter preliminaries with a time of 12.05.

The runners at Lakewood High School broke two school records and set many personal ones at the Birger Solberg Invitational, at the Civic Field Athletic Complex in Bellingham on April 6, a week before the Pasco Invitational.

“We had 60 kids that competed and they all did really well,” said Sowards. “We had two school records broken. One was Ellen Knowles, who broke the record in the 2,000-meter steeplechase, and Ariel Jensen, who broke the record in the 800-meter.”

The Cougars are set to compete against Cedarcrest and Sultan at Cedarcrest High School on Thursday, April 18.

baseball players.

“We worked at it in our studio in Granite Falls,” said Sheri Waggoner. “We worked on it six days a week for six or seven hours a day.”

The Waggoners have painted windows and murals in Marysville for years, including the highly visible mural painted on the side of the Nelson building at Fourth Street and State Avenue.

“You know, I did the window painting for Rudy’s daughter Patty, on Fourth Street when she had the hair salon, so I thought, ‘Oh! Small world,’” said Gene Waggoner, and his wife agreed.

“I used to work on Third Street too, so it is a very small world,” she said. “We may be out of Granite, but we have adopted this as our community.”

The mural is visible to drivers passing through on Cedar Avenue.

“When I think of this right here, how fitting to have our kids walk past this mural and hopefully ask questions and wonder, and gain an understanding of the sacrifices that are required sometimes for keeping communities safe,” said Nehring. “We proudly recognize this man, Rudy Wright, who gave his life to help others.”

SPORTS BRIEFS MarysvillePilchuck track and field The Tomahawks competed against Snohomish on

Thursday, April 11, and took several first place finishes in both boys and girls competition.

The Snohomish boys team score was 83.3, while M-P’s was 61.66. The Snohomish girls team score was 85, while M-P’s was 63.

Lakewood mountain bikers Lakewood junior Matt Roebke placed sixth in the beginner boys’ category in his first bike race ever at Steilacoom on April 7. Charles Davis, a sophomore at Lakewood, also entered the race but

was unable to complete it due to bike mechanical issues.

Gavin Sitter, a sophomore, raced in the intermediate division. Out of 27 racers in the biggest category of the day, Sitter made it to the podium with a fourth-place finish, completing two laps in under 57 minutes.

In girls’ racing action, the team had Dana Arenz, a junior at Lakewood, who placed fifth in her first ever mountain bike race, in spite of losing her rear brakes during the first lap.

Rain doesn’t dampen spirits at Craft Show

MARYSVILLE — In spite of the day’s cold downpour, the annual Spring Craft Show at the Ken Baxter Community Center drew an estimated 1,000 attendees on April 13, with double the number of vendors to meet them compared to the previous year.

“Our vendors were incredibly good sports,” Marysville Recreation Coordinator Maryke Burgess said. “Last year, we had about 30 vendors, but this year it went up to 60. Our furthest vendors came from Tacoma and Concrete, but many are local to Marysville, Everett, Camano Island and Snohomish. We had a very respectable, steady crowd of shoppers as well.”

According to Burgess, the weather only moderately impacted the event, and she cited the high spirits of customers and vendors alike, which were further bolstered by the presence of a clown twisting together balloon animals to bring cheer to kids of all ages.

Teria Huaracha, of Huaracha

Studio, reported that she enjoys coming to the craft shows presented by the city of Marysville’s Parks and Recreation Department because she “always does well here” selling her purses and leather accessories, and she loves to support the local community.

“Teria is a customer favorite, and the show wouldn’t be the show without her,” Burgess said. “Other popular vendors who customers request to see include Scrapwood Studio’s Lori Burkheimer, who does miniature gardens and wood art, and Debbie Roscoe of Eugenie Savon, a soap-seller whose customers will actually call in advance to see if she will be a vendor.”

Burgess credited the Hillside Church with providing food and music that complimented the atmosphere of the craft show, whose sales of candles, sculptures, ironwork, jewelry, scarves and garden art she sees as one of many local events in April that serve to signify that spring has arrived in Marysville.

“We’re all ready to get outside and enjoy the season,” Burgess

said. “People are thinking about their gardens and tulips and outdoor projects. It’s an excuse to see everyone after being inside so long over the winter.”

One new wrinkle of this year’s Spring Craft Show is that the number of outdoor vendors tripled, with nearly 40 outdoor vendors compared to the 20 who were indoors.

“We had outdoor vendors for the first time last year,” Burgess said. “I’d like to think that this a vendor’s show, because the vendors and artists seem to really enjoy themselves here and get a lot out of it. Vendors meet other talented folks, and they network and learn about other shows coming up. It’s the perfect event for both new and seasoned vendors to come together, and we try to take good care of everyone because we want them to come back for future shows. The public enjoys having a place to go, too.”

Burgess again expressed her appreciation to the day’s attendees for braving the elements to support this annual event.

Firefighters invite community to pancake breakfast

ARLINGTON — The North County Firefighters Association is once again inviting the community to its pancake breakfast, which kicks off this year on Sunday, April 28.

“We do this every year and attempt to tie it in with opening weekend of fishing,” said Robert Freedman of the North County Firefighters Association.

Although the firefighters organize the annual event as a fundraiser, Freedman said, “If we break even, we’re happy,” because the firefighters enjoy affording the community an opportunity to share some breakfast together at Fire Station 90, with all of the fire engines, medical units and aid cars on display.

“As taxpayers, it’s their station,

not ours,” Freedman said. “The public is welcome to climb onto the vehicles and ask any questions they like.”

In addition to the breakfast, the firefighters make a point of providing the public with information about home safety, storm preparedness and smoke detectors.

“This is just a nice, easy way

to say hello to our community, and to welcome them all into our home,” Freedman said.

The pancake breakfast runs from 6-11 a.m. on Sunday, April 29, at Fire Station 90, located at 3002 252nd St. NE in Arlington.

Donations will be accepted for plates of pancakes, ham, eggs, and biscuits and gravy, and cups of milk, juice and coffee.

MARYSVILLE — Real-time polling of the nearly four dozen attendees of the April 10 “Marysville University” meeting on revitalizing the city’s downtown and waterfront areas showed that those citizens are concerned with crime prevention, infrastructure, and park and trail improvements, in that order.

Interactive “pulse pad” voting allowed 43 percent of attendees to designate crime prevention as their primary priority for those areas in 2013, while 36 percent deemed infrastructure their main concern over the next three years, and 52 percent believe that those concerns — plus improvements to parks, trails and transportation — should all be given equal weight over the next five years.

Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring sees the revitalization of the city’s downtown and waterfront areas as complementary to its goals of economic and quality-of-life improvements, by making the city more attractive to businesses and residents alike.

To that end, city of Marysville Community

Development Director Gloria Hirashima explained that the city hopes to transform its waterfront into a mixed-use development for homes and stores alike, with pedestrian and bicycle paths that would only be the start of its recreational opportunities.

“Right now, where is the focal point of our town, where people gather?” Hirashima asked her audience. “Once that’s established, it will create a stronger sense of community. People love the water, and we’d like to develop the waterfront for dining, social opportunities and office space. We don’t want to put our eggs in one basket.”

City Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen cited his original hometown of Great Falls, Mont., as an example of how well-linked trails foster gathering hotspots, while Marysville Parks Director Jim Ballew asked attendees to consider what they see as the city’s attractions and identity.

Local girls aim to enter record books for largest duct tape flower

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Two Sunnyside Elementary students learned a little about long-term goal-setting through a unique project that also allowed their artistic sides to blossom.

Michayla Zaborowski, 11, and Shelby Felthoven, 10, had made a handful of small duct tape flowers at school when they decided to see how big they could go last fall.

“We looked up the record on the Internet for the big-

gest duct tape flower, and it was 56 inches according to the Guinness and amateur world record sites,” Zaborowski said.

Zaborowski and Felthoven set out to beat this record on Oct. 15 of last year, and by Jan. 29 of this year, after using up close to 100 rolls of duct tape, the two girls had created a duct tape flower that was 61 inches in diameter, weighed roughy 20 pounds and made up of a dazzling array of different colors and patterns of duct tape.

“We must have spent almost $500 on duct tape,” said Felthoven, who noted that they used money from their birthdays and Christmas to help fund the project. “If we were to start it again now, though, we’d be better at it, because we’re more experienced.”

“We made the middle layers tighter than they needed to be,” said Michayla Zaborowski, who credited her 7-year-old sister Camryn, also a Sunnyside Elementary student, with adding the pink zebra layer of duct tape. “We didn’t think we’d actually beat the record at first.”

The Zaborowski and Felthoven households share joint custody of the duct tape flower, which is continuing to grow even as the girls have set about contacting Guinness about getting it officially entered into the record books.

“We’re hoping to make it 100 inches by this summer,” said Felthoven, who explained that they’re only able to devote an hour or so at a time to their project.

“It’s nice when people are impressed by it.”

“We’re all so used to it by now that it’s a pleasant reminder of what these girls have accomplished when other people see it,” said Jessica Zaborowski, Michayla’s mom. “Anybody who sees it is pretty wowed by it. This has definitely been these girls’ project all the way. They’ve saved up their money for it and everything.”

The two girls acknowledged that they could add another 20 inches to the diameter simply by taking the duct tape flower apart and reapplying those layers, but they’re hesitant to undo work that they’ve already done, just as they’re loath to cut it into two pieces after it’s been entered into the record books.

Neither the Zaborowskis nor the Felthovens have heard back from Guinness yet.
