ARLINGTON — When Kathleen Shalan and Carlene Braaten decided to relocate the Country Rose in May, after eight years at the Seattle Premium Outlets in Tulalip, they chose to move to downtown Arlington.

When Craig Davis and Conner Cave ran out of room for Vitalire Clothing in April, after their first year in operation on Olympic Avenue, they stayed in town and found new digs in the industrial park just east of the Arlington Airport.

Local employees recalled from furlough

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

EVERETT — The local impacts of the federal government shutdown were partially mitigated as of Monday, Oct. 7, when the Smokey Point Commissary at the Navy Support Complex in north Marysville reopened, and all 43 furloughed civilian employees of Naval Station Everett returned to work.

Cmdr. Jeff Caulk, executive officer of Naval Station Everett, explained that some furloughed civilian employees had been excepted from being recalled to work, but none of Naval Station Everett’s 43 civilian employees fell under that exception.

“We basically have three categories of civilian employees now — those who were furloughed, those who were recalled from their furloughs to return to work, and those who were excepted from that recall,” Caulk said on Oct. 7.

“All those workers who were

recalled to work this morning will be paid from now through this pay period, but we’re still waiting for direction on how the various categories of civilian employees might be paid for Oct. 1-4.”

Among the complications that Caulk cited was how civilian employees might be paid for the time that they reported to work until they received their furloughs on Monday, Oct. 1.

“It’s still not business as usual, but we’re definitely happy to see these people are back to work,” Caulk said. “We’re getting back into our normal routine.”

Capt. Christopher Larsen of the 364th Expeditionary Sustainment Command, a U.S. Army Reserve unit headquartered in north Marysville adjacent to the Navy Support Complex, likewise estimated that 81 of their more than 100 civilian employees, from throughout seven states, were recalled on Oct. 7.

“For our facility here, that adds up to about 20 folks,”

Code Enforcement is vital city service

A

mong city services, Code Enforcement is vitally important to the safety, public health and appearance of our neighborhoods in Marysville.

Code Enforcement ensures compliance with the city codes and ordinances relating to junk cars, badly overgrown lots, piled up rubbish, illegally dumped garbage, houses so dilapidated that they would be deemed unsafe, and many more code issues and public nuisances. Code enforcement is tasked with achieving compliance to remedy these conditions.

Nothing devalues the quality of life in a neighborhood like junk cars, wildly overgrown lawns, piles of accumulated rubbish and other examples of neglect that constitute a public nuisance. The existence of problems such as these can signal a neighborhood’s potential deterioration, reduce property values and increase crime.

On a grander scale, issues like these detract from our economic development priorities to position Marysville as a hub of opportunity through a regional manufacturing, light industry job center in the Smokey Point area, and downtown and waterfront revitalization. A prospective company eyeing a move here looks at many variables in the site selection process; a general run-down appearance in the community shouldn’t be the reason they turn elsewhere.

Code Enforcement, under the Community Development Department, works in partnership with citizens, and coordinates with the City Attorney, Police Department, Marysville Fire District, Public Works, the

GUEST OPINION JON NEHRING MARYSVILLE MAYOR

Street Division and Parks and Recreation to devise innovative solutions to problems related to health and safety in our community.

Enforcement actions are taken both proactively and in response to citizen complaints.

When citizens seek relief from conditions in violation of city code on a property in their neighborhood, and talking to the owner, tenant or neighborhood associations is ineffective or not an option, a complaint can be filed with Code Enforcement.

The form and more information are available on the city website at http://marysvillewa.gov, or call the Code Enforcement Office at 360-363-8208. If you’re curious, enforcement authority can be found in Title 4 of the Marysville Municipal Code.

The way it works, the Code Enforcement Office will follow up and investigate the allegations.

Information is kept confidential to the extent provided by state law. It’s important to note that sometimes a simple eyesore can be more than meets the eye.

Public health and safety issues may also be involved, resulting in more serious code violations that require investigation.

If a violation occurs, a Violation Citation is issued that

ou may be hearing a buzz about new educational standards. My hope is that this article can provide some background about educational standards in our state, as well as a glimpse into our future as we transition to the Common Core State Standards.

Standards outline what students need to know, understand, and be able to do. This requires the creation of curriculum frameworks which outline specific knowledge or skills which students must acquire.

Standards are chosen through political and educational expert discussions that focus on what students will need to learn to be competitive in the job market, instead of by textbook publishers or education professors or tradition. Standards are normally published and freely available to parents and taxpayers as well as professional educators and textbook writers.

Standards: Yesterday and Today

A

GUEST OPINION DR. BECKY BERG In 1993, Washington State developed new educational standards.

These standards addressed the traditional subject areas of reading, writing, communication, math, history, and the sciences. They also addressed critical thinking skills and planning for one’s future. Across the country, the “standards movement” resulted in 50 different set of learning standards, and eventually 50 different state tests of those standards.

Washington State standards have always been considered high, not as high as some, but higher than many

others. When the Department of Education began rewarding and punishing states and school districts based on their state test scores, some states actually lowered their standards. Washington State never did this.

As you can imagine, this made it very difficult for states to learn from each other, and to determine what is best practice in education. Publishers created curriculum that reflected primarily what Californians and Texans wanted — because they are the biggest textbook markets. Teachers and administrators would go to professional development sessions to learn more about how to improve schools, but they were comparing apples and oranges when it came to what the students learned, and how they were tested.

School Boards Demystified

s a school board director for Arlington Public Schools, not many days go by without having a school related conversation with someone in the community. The topics and questions run the entire gamut from district policy to classroom concerns. However, inevitably, the discussion often turns to a question on everyone’s mind, “How did you get on the school board and what do you do?”

Despite the fact that school boards have been in operation in Washington (Territory and State) since the mid-1800s, they still perplex many people. This isn’t surprising since state public school systems are complex. They are “shaped by federal law, the state constitution, state law, administrative rules adopted by the Superintendent of Public instruction (OSPI), the State Board of Education (SBE) and WSSDA at the state level, educational service districts (ESD’s) at the regional level, and school districts at the local level.” (Serving on Your

GUEST OPINION URSULA GHIRARDO Local School Board, WSSDA). If you are among the ranks of the confused, you now have permission to feel better.

Simply put, Washington’s 295 local school districts and boards derive their authority from the state legislature and act to improve public school programs and the administration of the school districts.

In Arlington, our district is split geographically into five areas. Every board candidate must reside within the boundaries of their area and participate in our county elections.

Board terms are four years long and elections are staggered so that some

positions are open for election every two years. In addition, we have two non-voting student representatives on the board. They apply and interview in the spring, and serve a two-year term during their junior and senior years.

The other key component of local governance is the role of the district superintendent. The school board has the authority to recruit, hire, and supervise one employee — the superintendent. The superintendent is most often likened to a private company CEO; his/her job is to assemble a leadership team and carry out the will of the board, transforming vision and policy into action. Our superintendent has formed a cabinet of four directors; they oversee the areas of Teaching and Learning, Human Resources, Financial Services, and Operations.

explains the regulation violated, recommends corrective action that the homeowner in violation must take, and a timeline to comply. If corrective action is completed by the date given, no fines or penalties accrue.

If the corrective action is not completed, fines do begin, and accrue, while multiple warnings are given over a period of several weeks. If no action is taken on the part of the homeowner to correct the situation, eventually the person will be directed to appear before the city’s Hearing Examiner, which can result in more costs, fines and other penalties — legal action and even a lien placed on the violator’s property — until the work is done.

Code violation laws include provisions for civil fines that can range from $150-$300 for a first violation, and $300-$500 for repeat violators. More often than not, residents take corrective actions, and the case moves no further.

ctober is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and to help raise awareness in our communities we have put together a “Pink Crusade” special section for this week’s issues of The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times.

Breast cancer has impacted almost everyone, either directly or indirectly.

Most of us have a family member, friend or coworker, or know someone in the community who has battled this disease. According to the American Cancer Society, an estimated 230,480 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed among women nationwide in 2011. The ACS also estimates that nearly 40,000 women died in 2007 of breast cancer — only lung cancer accounts for more deaths in women. The ACS data also shows that in 2009 Washington had the highest female breast cancer incidence rate, 139.2 per 100,000, of all the states. These are not just statistics, they are members of our community. Our hope is that by partnering with our communities we can help raise awareness about this disease that impacts so many.

In this week’s “Pink Crusade” special section of The Arlington Times and The Marysville Globe, we’ve shared some stories of local women and their fights against this disease, provided information about some of the services and resources available in our communities, and included a variety of other stories about breast cancer to help increase awareness. In addi-

tion, a portion of the ad sales from our local businesses who participated in the special “Pink Crusade” advertising will be donated back to a women’s health program in our communities.

Additional information and resources are also available at the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month website at www. nbcam.org, the American Cancer Society’s website at www.cancer.org or the Komen Puget Sound website at www.komenpugetsound.org.

In addition, we want to honor the breast cancer survivors in our communities. If you are a breast cancer survivor, you can post a “Survivor’s Photo” on our Facebook pages at www.facebook.com/ TheMarysvilleGlobe or www.facebook.com/ TheArlingtonTimes, or you can email a photo to sfrank@marysvilleglobe.com and we can post it for you.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Mental Illness Awareness Week – Where is my casserole?

Over the past week, there has been a concentrated effort to raise awareness regarding mental illness. This is part of an annual event that takes place across the country and internationally, and this year Mental Health Awareness Week was held Oct. 6-12.

I believe most folks are aware of mental illness in our community but maybe not the actual prevalence. Fact is, one in four adults, or approximately 61.5 million Americans, experience mental illness in a given year. Roughly 20 percent of youth ages 13 to 18 experience severe mental disorders in a given year. For ages 8 to 15, the frequency of occurrence is estimated at 13 percent. These facts are sobering and demonstrate the huge need for education and research to provide effective care and treatment for these individuals.

Beyond awareness as to the numbers of individuals living with mental illness, it is critically important for each of us to learn what we can to better understand what living with a mental illness is like and what’s behind it. A fundamental point is to get once and for all that these are biologically-based brain disorders and in no way whatsoever related to some flaw in character. If everyone understood this, it

would substantially reduce the stigma that surrounds mental illness. All too often, stigma is what prevents folks from seeking treatment. What is truly called for is compassion and empathy. The brain is the most complex organ in our body. When there is a disorder in the functioning of the brain, it should be viewed and treated as other organs are when they don’t function properly. Unfortunately, when someone in your family suffers from mental illness, the casseroles don’t show up on your door step.

Why is that? What is it that prevents us from freely and compassionately discussing mental illness and looking out for each other? It is time for us to move beyond an annual week dedicated to raising awareness to having it as regular practice. A compassionate commitment to increased understanding helps to effectively advocate for those less fortunate than ourselves.

If you want to know more, fact sheets about specific diagnoses and treatment options are available from the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) at: www.nami.org. If you wish to learn more or have questions to ask, you can also check in with your local Affiliate, NAMI Snohomish County, by calling 425-339-3620 or visiting its website at www.namisnohomishcounty.org.

demolished as a dangerous building after a months-long hearing and appeals process. For many nearby residents, as well as repeated visits by Police, as well as city Code Enforcement and Building officials, it was every neighborhood’s worst nightmare, from a quality of life standpoint.

From 2003 on, the homeowner was cited for numerous code violations. Over time, the house became a decayed and eventually dangerous building used by squatters and others for illicit drug activity. The home was in extreme disrepair with no running water or electricity. At an open record hearing in August, Police Officers who had visited the house said they observed cat feces on furniture, holes in the drywall, no kitchen appliances, broken windows, exposed framing, propane tanks used indoors for heat, missing light fixtures, exposed electrical wiring and plumbing pipes, black mold, filthy furniture, graffiti on inside walls, garbage everywhere and used drug paraphernalia. A junk vehicle, garbage and tires were outside of the house.

After an appeal process, the house was declared a Dangerous Building under MMC 6.24.050 (6)(7)(8)(12)(13)(18) Public

BERG FROM PAGE 4 Today The Governors and Chief State Schools Officers (the Superintendent of Public Instruction in our state) came together to supported an effort to develop standards that would be world class, and consistent across the country if states so chose to participate. These are now called the Common Core State Standards. Currently, 45 states including Washington, the District of Columbia, four territories, and the Department of Defense Education Activity have adopted the Common Core State Standards.

These standards are for English/Language Arts and Math, and represent a more rigorous set of standards than in almost every state currently.

They are designed to be college and career readiness standards, not a minimum standard for graduation. If you would like to learn more about these standards first hand, go to www.corestandards.org.

As a profession, we are already recognizing the efficiencies created by all of us working on the same set of standards. Where one state may not

These goals are pursued and accomplished in many different ways. With respect to a vision, the district developed a dynamic Strategic Plan. This over-arching plan is used by district staff to align their annual building and departmental plans and set measurable goals.

Nuisances, and thereafter demolished.

Again, this is an example of a very extreme case where the city proactively stepped in and used the proper regulatory process to remedy what had become a very big problem in our downtown, an area that again the city is working hard to clean up to make a good first impression for prospective downtown redevelopment. I should also add that this was in a house in the city’s Stay Out of Drug Area (SODA), an area that the city worked with in 2012 during Clean Sweep Week by offering to remove garbage, tires, old wood and other debris at no charge to property owners.

Obviously, Code Enforcement would much prefer to work with property owners to take care of smaller issues before they become larger ones. As neighbors, you play a valuable role in working with the city to make your own neighborhood safer, more wellkept and attractive. The city wants to help to the best extent possible.

have the funding to create curriculum and training, another state may have the funding and expertise to do so, and put their work on the internet for us to adapt to our local community and to learn from. The tax dollar is truly being maximized for taxpayers across the country by all of us working together.

Don’t worry, this movement does not dilute local control by our elected school board. Our locally elected school board members duties are still the same: they set district policy, employ the superintendent, determine graduation requirements, approve curriculum, and much more. We now just have a common language in most states when it comes to world-class standards.

Last month I wrote about our new teacher and principal evaluation system. This month I have shared about new standards — that will also result in new testing. So, just about everything in our profession is “under construction” — but for the better. Thank you so much for your support, as we consistently build the aircraft while we are flying it.

Dr. Becky Berg is the Superintendent of Marysville Schools. You can reach Dr. Berg via email at becky_ berg@msvl.k12.wa.us or by calling 360-653-0800.

Throughout the year, the school board receives progress reports — at public board meetings, during the course of day-long workshops, and at site visits throughout the district. All of this feedback aids us in the development of our annual budget and the all important allocation of resources. We consider our diverse student population, our human resource requirements, the condition of our many facilities, our curriculum, our extracurricular needs, our state, federal and local funding, our service contracts and interlocal agreements, and much more. And, as a local board, we look to the Arlington community for direction and support. We do so in many formal and informal ways, being active and engaged parents and community members, being present at school and town events, and

being reachable by phone or email every day of the year.

As the newest member of the Arlington school board, I am very fortunate to be working with four outstanding colleagues who have a combined 52 years of school board service, an exceptional superintendent and a super-charged workforce of teachers and staff.

Without a sponsor, the pumpkin roll on the First Street hill might be absent from this year’s ‘Hometown Halloween’ in Arlington.

“Hometown Halloween” will be limited to trickor-treating on Olympic Avenue, the costume contest in Legion Park and the pumpkin decorating contest sponsored by Arlington Hardware & Lumber.

“These have historically been sponsored by our downtown businesses,” Lopez told the DABA Board of Directors during their morning meeting on Oct. 9.

Marysville offers local domestic violence services MARYSVILLE — Mayor Jon Nehring has proclaimed October to be Domestic Violence Awareness Month in Marysville. Police and other city officials are donning purple ribbons on their uniforms and on their vehicles in support of raising awareness about domestic violence.

Behind all of the ribbons and proclamations are two women who work specifically to help domestic violence victims in Marysville and other communities.

Legal Advocacy Director Lisa Nicholson and Victim Advocate/Prevention Educator Alyssa Morgan have been on the front lines, combating the issue, through Domestic Violence Services of Snohomish County in Everett.

The city of Marysville began contracting for their services last February.

Nicholson and Morgan share an office in the Marysville Municipal Court building where they provide social service support to victims.

In the past fiscal year, the agency has served 128 residents in Marysville. Services range from legal assistance in criminal and civil courts, to support groups, shelter and transitional housing for victims. Domestic Violence Services of Snohomish County also runs the New & Again Thrift Shoppe,

through which all proceeds go toward helping victims, and residents of the shelter and transitional housing can receive items at no cost to them.

The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence states that domestic violence is one of the most chronically underreported crimes. Annually, domestic violence affects more than 4 million Americans, one in three people have witnessed a domestic violence incident, and children who grow up in violent homes are believed to be abused and neglected at a rate higher than the national average, according to statistics.

Nicholson and Morgan hope their broad range of services will reverse the trend.

“Victims should know that, if they call 911, they will be supported,” said Nicholson, who added that victims can also call their free and confidential 24-hour hotline at 425-2522873. “Know you’re not alone. We’re here.”

Domestic Violence Awareness Month provides an opportunity for citizens to learn more about preventing domestic violence, and to show support for the numerous organizations and individuals who provide critical advocacy, services and assistance to victims.

Both women see it as a col-

lective effort between their office, Marysville Police and other city officials. They praise the city for making the domestic violence issue a priority, and believe that Marysville sees the benefit of having legal advocates in the community.

“Marysville is an example to other jurisdictions,” Nicholson said. “We’re a blend of systems-based advocacy, and communitybased advocacy, and that offers a more comprehensive set of services.”

Nicholson and Morgan hope that Domestic Violence Awareness Month will not only bring awareness to the issue, but better understanding.

“Victims need support through the process, because it’s not as simple as saying, ‘Just leave,’” Morgan said.

“There are other dynamics,” Nicholson said. “Fear of being hurt, fear of your children being hurt, income, no resources — it’s not easy to pick up and leave.”

They also hope awareness brings more funding for prevention programs, including education as early as elementary school, to help children learn the difference between healthy and unhealthy relationships, and an emphasis on not glamorizing teen violence.

“If more people are aware, more victims are willing to call,” Morgan said.

Marysville girl benefits from school for hearing impaired children

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

SHORELINE — Marysville’s Matthea Balcago is considered profoundly deaf. She cannot hear at all.

As an elementary student in the Ferndale School District, Balcago was struggling to learn — not because she wasn’t capable, but because there weren’t enough resources in the school to adequately educate a deaf child.

“The school wasn’t helping her,” said Matthea’s mother, Maita Gaines. “She was not getting all the resources she needed, like a one-onone speech/deaf teacher. She didn’t have peers at school, since she was the only one who is deaf, so her socialization was really low. Her speech pathologist advised us to go visit Northwest School for Hearing-Impaired Children to see if that would be the best school for Matthea.”

The Northwest School for Hearing-Impaired Children is the only school of its kind in the country. There are currently 40 students enrolled from across the state.

“We contract with 22 school districts in Washington,” said Dr. Barb Luetke, Outreach and Literacy Coordinator for the school, a former professor who trained teachers of the deaf and has written several books on the subject. “The state is required to provide adequate education for every student, so since we contract with the schools, parents do not have to pay anything for tuition or transportation.”

The school was founded by two teachers of the deaf in 1982, Karen Appelman and Judy Callahan. For more than 30 years, the school has focused on teaching students

in a way that will increase their success after they graduate from the program. The school’s students have a 100 percent high school graduation rate and 65 percent of students will graduate from college. Eighty-five percent of the school’s former students have jobs and are living on their own. Those statistics well exceed national averages — a 2001 study conducted by researchers in the field found only 30 percent of all young adults who were deaf or hard of hearing received college degrees, 63 percent were employed and 42 percent lived on their own.

Matthea’s family decided to move to Marysville to be closer to the school, so that she could take the bus to Shoreline everyday.

“It was a six-month process — visiting the school and working on her IEP. I had to fight for her in order for the Ferndale School District to cover the expenses that she needs, until the district decided to send her,” said Gaines. “And then the bus ride was three hours going to Shoreline and three hours going back home. We did that for a year, and I said to myself, ‘If I see a lot of progress in her, after a year we can move and let her

stay in that school.’” After a year, the family moved to Marysville because the progress in her learning was so amazing.

“We saw far beyond what we expected for Matthea,” said Gaines. “Going to the school improved her socialization and self esteem. She is talking, signing a lot and initiating conversations.

She is more into her studies and is more disciplined. She can hear, because she has a cochlear implant on her right ear and they are doing Signing Exact English, where they have to sign every word in the sentence. In ASL, you just have to sign the major word. Using SEE has really helped too because she can read now. She is at her grade level in reading, which is really unexpected because she is deaf and so her reading should be delayed, but I think she is catching up.”

At NWSFHIC, the emphasis is on proper communication, both spoken and signed.

“Here we focus on speech, listening, English grammar and a regular academic curriculum,” said Luetke. “The book that Matthea is reading right now is a book approved for teaching in a hearing classroom.”

The school uses a language

called Signing Exact English, rather than American Sign Language. The difference between the two is that with ASL, there is a sign for significant words in a sentence, while with SEE, the signs translate exactly as they would in the English language.

“ASL does not have a written translation,” said Luetke.

“We use English, we read English and we sign English grammatically correctly and we make sure that the grammar is the same as in a hearing classroom. SEE helps children make sense of the auditory input provided by their cochlear implants or hearing aids. If they can’t hear certain words or parts of words, we supply them with SEE signs so that grammatically correct English is developed for academics and social communication.”

Using SEE is part of what helps each student learn and improve their skills in communication and reading, as well as socialization with non-deaf children. Teachers wear a microphone on their shirts and each child’s equipment is tuned to their teacher’s voice, which helps them hear as much of the spoken word as possible. Each student at the NWSFHIC receives 15 minutes of one-

SMOKEY POINT — The Arlington Kiwanis Club installed its officers for the coming year and presented their distinguished citizen award to Glen Zachry of Cuz Concrete during their annual banquet at the Medallion Hotel in Smokey Point on Wednesday, Oct. 1.

Glen Zachry was accompanied by his wife Eilene and several other family members as he received this award, which was presented by the Arlington Kiwanis Club’s incoming President Elect Terry Marsh.

“Glen and Eilene worked together for 36 years to build Cuz Concrete into the company that is today,” Marsh said. “It is a highly respected, family-owned

business that has its roots in the local community.”

In April of 2005, Glen and Eilene sold their interest in the business to their youngest son Wayne Zachry, who has been with Cuz Concrete since 1971, and to Wayne’s two oldest sons, Aaron and Brandon Zachry, who have been with Cuz Concrete since 1984 and 1990, respectively.

“Glen and Eilene’s contributions and influence will continue to be reflected in the way the company is run by Wayne, Aaron and Brandon,” Marsh said.

Among the contributions to the community that Marsh credited Glen Zachry with were donating to the Arlington Kiwanis Club auction, sponsoring

MARYSVILLE — Soroptimist International of Marysville recruited a few new business and professional women into their members during their “Last Splash of Summer” getacquainted social and picnic-style dinner on Tuesday, Oct. 8, at Marysville Fire Station 62.

“We’re always looking for women in the community who are interested in service,” said Kathie Roon, co-president of Soroptimist International of Marysville with Teresa Trivett.

While last year’s social drew 10 women from outside of the organization, this year’s event saw six nonSoroptimist women attend, three of whom had already signed up for the group by the meeting’s end.

Roon explained that Soroptimist International of Marysville tackles a broad scope of programs to aid other women, from national and global-level concerns such as combating human trafficking, to supplying scholarships for local high school girls.

“Last year, we generated $17,500 in scholarships for nine girls,” said Roon, who noted that Soroptimist International of Marysville is also active in the American Cancer Society’s annual Relay For Life. “We have two teams for Relay

Veronica Love and Christina Trader chat at the Soroptimist International of Marysville ‘Last Splash of Summer’ getacquainted social and picnic-style dinner at Marysville Fire Station 62 on Oct. 8. each year, who raise about $8,000 to $9,000.”

Roon added that Soroptimist International of Marysville likewise contributes between $3,000 to $4,000 annually to the Marysville Community Food Bank, with much of those funds going toward its annual holiday toy store and its weekend backpacks of food for families in need.

“In addition to the money we raise, we also provide our time and efforts to organizations such as Domestic Violence Services of Snohomish County, who will be the recipient of a few gifts from us during our district meeting on Saturday, Oct. 12,” Roon said. “We’re set to have about 300 women show up to the Tulalip Resort, and Snohomish County Executive John Lovick will be one of the speakers, so I’m looking forward to it.”

Looking further ahead, Roon joined Renae James, former president of Soroptimist International of Marysville, in inviting the community to take part in Soroptimist International

of Marysville’s annual fundraising auction at the Medallion Hotel in Smokey Point, starting at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 26.

“This is always a fun event, with lots of silent and live auction items, great raffles and a delicious meal,” said James, who noted that this year’s theme is “Bounty of Treasures,” during which attendees are welcome to wear pirate outfits, if they dare.

“Costumes are encouraged but not required. This auction is our club’s primary fundraiser, and the funds raised go toward local scholarships and supporting local and international service projects.”

“We raised about $30,000 last year,” Roon said. “Obviously, we’re trying to beat that this year.”

“We’re just looking forward to a great year of investing in our community and continuing to grow as a group,” Trivett said.

Tickets for the event are $55 each. For further ticket information, or to donate an item, call 360-722-2242 or 360-708-0538.

of aesthetician services.

Like herself, all of her staff are fully licensed cosmetologists who continue to spend a great deal of time on advanced training.

“It’s a lot of work, but that advanced training really is fascinating,” Evans said. “This whole industry is exciting.”

Perhaps Evans’ greatest joy in her job, though, is simply interacting with her clients.

“I just enjoy creating a welcoming atmosphere for them,” said Evans, whose community-mindedness extends to include a fundraiser in support of Breast

to contribute something, whether it’s a little or a lot,” Redden said. “If you can go without something simple, like lattes for a day, or a week, or not going to your favorite watering hole for a night, or even foregoing a family movie night in the theaters, which can run you up to $50 with popcorn and drinks, then you’d have so much left to contribute.”

Redden listed canned tuna, salmon and chicken, as well as chili, canned vegetables, granola and baby food, among the more soughtafter items of the Marysville Community Food Bank.

“About half of the Food Bank’s customers are seniors and children,” Redden said.

“These are kids in working families, and people’s parents living on fixed incomes. I hope we can spread the word enough about their needs to touch the community’s hearts.”

Donations can be dropped off at Windermere Real Estate, located at 801 State Ave. in Marysville, throughout the month of October, or at the Marysville Haggen, located at 3711 88th St. NE, from Thursday, Oct. 24, through Saturday, Oct. 26.

MARYSVILLE — Windermere Real Estate in Marysville is soliciting donations of food and dollars again this October, as part of their ongoing efforts to bolster the work of the Marysville Community Food Bank.

Connie Redden, who’s coordinating the food drive with fellow Marysville Windermere employee Larry Peterson, reported that they’d already raised approximately 320 pounds of food and $305 in financial donations as of Thursday, Oct. 10, even as she emphasized that more is always needed.

“We’re also contributing a little bit from each of our closings, from $25 to $100 each,” Redden said. “We’re even matching the donations that each of us collects personally.”

Although previous donation drive totals have ranged from 17,000-28,000 pounds of food, Redden thinks it’s perfectly realistic to set a goal of collecting as much as 100,000 pounds of food this year.

“We have an amazing group of people in this office, who are ready and willing to help and get out there in the community,” Redden said.

“We know how important it is to give back, and we’ve

ARLINGTON — Pamela Evans has done hair for 27 years, 13 of them in Arlington, so when the previous owner of her hair salon decided to retire, she renamed the business in honor of the biggest reason why she’s kept going in the beauty industry.

Evans’ Inspire Hair Studio at 108 E. Fifth St. in Arlington was officially inaugurated with a ribboncutting on Saturday, Oct. 5, by Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert, who also saw meaning in the salon’s new name.

“It’s really great when an Arlington business that’s already successful stays in town under new owners,” Tolbert said, before laughing, “It must be the name.”

“I chose to inspire people to feel good about themselves,” Evans said. “I’m inspired by my clients in turn. The beauty industry is all about creativity and inspiration.”

Evans has four employees, covering services ranging from haircuts, hairstyling and hair coloring, for both men and women, to eyelashes, eyebrows, waxing, tinting and a full line

seen people give to our food drive that we didn’t expect to give. During one of our food drives at the Marysville Haggen, one lady was in a hurry and just grabbed our flier as she ran in the store, but she came out with all sorts of food, because she’d known people who have relied on food bank services, so she decided that she needed to take the time to shop for them.”

Redden herself has known people who have needed to use food banks, and she’s hardly alone, even within the Marysville Windermere offices where a show of hands at a recent meeting confirmed that roughly a third of the staff have had friends or family members who have relied upon food bank services.

“The real number is probably even more than that,” Redden said. “People who are forced to rely on food banks can be embarrassed to admit it, but they shouldn’t be. It’s been a tough few years.”

Redden is quick to cite the figure that $1 can buy two meals for someone, when donated to a food bank, and pointed out to community members how small a sacrifice this is, when weighed against its potential positive impact.

‘Fall Into Art’ auction returns Oct. 19

Marysville church blesses the animals

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER

BY LAUREN SALCEDO

ARLINGTON — Since it evolved from a committee planning art projects for the city’s centennial celebration in 2003, the Arlington Arts Council has sought to further foster what they see as the community’s growing reputation for art.

To that end, the Arlington Arts Council’s “Fall Into Art” auction will return for its 11th year on Saturday, Oct. 19, at the Medallion Hotel in Smokey Point.

“Our first auction helped match the city’s contribution of $10,000 to commission ‘Westside Species,’ a major mural on Olympic Hill by Harry Engstrom, and the ‘Salmon Spawning Pool’ granite sculpture

by Verena Schwippert,” Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney said.

“For several years, the city continued matching funds raised at the annual ‘Fall Into Art’ auction, until the economy crashed.”

Looking to the group’s contributions to the community within the past three years, Arney credited the Arlington Arts Council with assisting the city in securing welcome signs for all of its major entryways, by designing and paying for the first sign, and then buying the art elements for four more signs, that were paid for in part by a Snohomish County Tourism Grant. City of Arlington Recreation

MARYSVILLE — “May God bless you and your human,” was the phrase of the day on Sunday, Oct. 6, as St. Philip’s Episcopal Church hosted a Blessing of the Animals at their church in Marysville and at Jones & Co. Pets on State Avenue.

“When I bless the animals, it’s a recognition of how beautiful all these creatures are,” said Terry Kyllo, pastor at St. Philip’s.

“People will look at us and ask, ‘What are they doing?’

— because we live in a place where 70 percent of people don’t do church. But, I’m not really changing anything, it’s not magic. It’s an intimate and trusting experience. For many people pets are a part of the family and they may find comfort in having them blessed.”

The Blessing of the Animals is a tradition that the church has repeated for more than 30 years, and many other churches across the globe participate in as well. This is the first year that St. Philip’s church members held a blessing outside of their own building and it drew in many participants who hadn’t heard of the practice before or didn’t know it was available in Washington.

“I’ve actually done this before, back in Virginia,” said Melissa McPherson, who was shopping the Jones & Co. anniversary sale and

Arlington artist Gary Goveet, left, and his wife Andrea checked out some of their fellow artists’ wares at the Arlington Arts Council’s ‘Fall Into Art’ auction last year.

Manager Sarah Lopez was instrumental in writing the grant and coordinating the sign projects.

“We’re also excited that the city found funds for an art project in the 67th Avenue reconstruction project,” Arney said. “That’s strictly a city effort, but we see it as a sign that art is recognized as an important element in our town. We’re still hoping there will also be art included at the new transit hub, that Community Transit will be building next year in Smokey Point.”

The annual “Fall Into Art” auction is the sole source of the Arlington Arts Council’s operating

budget. Proceeds from the Tayla Lynn country music concert on Saturday, Oct. 26, at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center at Arlington High School, will benefit the Arlington Arts Council’s next public art project.

Donations to this year’s auction range from original art by Arlington Arts Council members and friends, services by local community businesses, theater tickets and a night at the Mayflower Park Hotel in Seattle.

pet blessings before, but she was receptive to the idea because loving your pets is universal.

“I hadn’t heard of it before, but we are supportive of everyone,” she said.

“We have brought in pet psychics before and other specialized pet services.

People love their animals and they have different ways of how they care for them, but we support them all here.”

Jones had Sterling, her 11-year-old Schnauzer, blessed that day as well.

“People don’t always realize how important it is,” said Kyllo, of the blessing.

“Sometimes people like to have their animals blessed if they are at the end of life. It’s our way of speaking well of these pets, who are more like companions and friends.”

Kyllo estimated that he had blessed about a dozen animals at the church, and thanks to the big anniversary sale drawing in many customers with pets to Jones & Co., he likely blessed dozens more that day.

“Usually we have people bring in dogs and cats,” he said, though they have seen llamas, alpacas, pot-bellied pigs and Russian tortoises participate.

Blake, Klein contrast views during forum

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

As the Nov. 5 deadline approaches for Snohomish County voters to return their ballots for the general election, one county-wide elected office has become something of a local equivalent to a “subway series” for Arlington, the hometown of both candidates for Snohomish County Council Position 1.

Democrat Bill Blake and Republican Ken Klein have remained friendly and cordial throughout their public speaking engagements together, including their appearance at the ArlingtonSmokey Point Chamber of Commerce candidates’ forum on Tuesday, Oct. 8, but while the two men share common ground on a number of issues, they’ve also taken

care to clarify those areas on which they stand apart.

One point on which both Blake, the stormwater manager for the city of Arlington, and Klein, the at-large member of the Arlington City Council, agree is that a personal touch counts for at least as much as campaign resources in an election.

“Getting past the primary election proved to me that winning doesn’t have to be about how much money you bring in, but about the message you share and the legacy of your past actions,” Blake said. “It is okay to remain fiscally conservative, even in a campaign.”

“Meeting people matters,” Klein said. “Whether it’s going door-to-door or attending events, it is critical for elected officials and

candidates to hear their constituents’ concerns, and to communicate their message.”

In the midst of all the other issues that have been raised during the election, each candidate wished to highlight details that they believed voters might not already know.

Blake sought to underscore what he sees as his ability to “bring together opposing opinions to accept a common solution,” while Klein wanted to publicly express his gratitude to his “incredibly supportive and hardworking wife” for taking such an active role in his campaign.

“I can generally take the tension out of a heated debate by making sure everybody’s voice gets heard,” Blake said.

“That leads to a better understanding of the issues.”

“Running for political

office is much easier when you are part of a team,” Klein said.

When asked what traits set them apart from their fellow candidates, Blake and Klein’s answers illustrated the divide between not only the experiences they would bring to the office, but also their political leanings.

“If elected, I will bring to the table up to three decades of working relationships with landowners, local businesses, tribes, and state and federal representatives living and working in Snohomish County,” Blake said. “When somebody wants to know who to talk to about various issues, I am normally only one phone call away from helping them out.”

Blake touted his creative thinking skills and his tech-

Ken Klein

nical abilities, “that have on multiple occasions turned ideas into reality through hard work and dedication.”

“My experience in the private sector, working for both small and large companies, gives me unique insights into the impacts that government

can have on different industries and regular people,” Klein said. “I’ve been in business all my life, and my time on the Arlington City Council has allowed me to work with incredible people towards a common goal, despite our differing opinions.”

LWSD candidates prepare for Nov. 5 election lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — The Nov. 5 general election is only three weeks away, and Snohomish County voters should soon be receiving their ballots.

Michael Blank and Oscar Escalante are running for the Lakewood School District Director District 1 position and reflected on their campaigns so far.

“I have learned a lot about the local businesses and how they want to be involved in the schools in some capacity — be it mentoring or going into class and talking about their business and what the kids will need to be successful working for them,” said Blank.

Escalante, who has served on the board for 12 years, has been interacting with the community since the primary election, looking for input on how to best to represent them.

“It is interesting to hear people’s different ideas and understandings of how the board governs the district and how it should be governed,” said Escalante. “I appreciate people’s honesty and interest in the district, and although some of them have no children in the district, they care deeply about the future of the district and the impact it has in the community. I appreciate that.”

With all of the election coverage and soundbites, Blank is hoping that voters will keep in mind that education has been a big part of his family for decades.

“I had a great grandma who taught in a one-room

schoolhouse at the turn of the 20th century, and my grandmother taught in one in 1929 in Spooner, Wisc.,” he said.

“My aunt was a teacher, and eventually became a principal and district administrator, and I have another aunt who served on the Margate, N.J. school board. Education is in my blood, and it is now my turn to do my part.”

Escalante also wants voters to know a little bit more about him before they make their decision.

“One thing many people don’t know about me is that after my separation from the military, my wife had a plan for me,” Escalante said. “She knew my leadership capabilities and the dedication I can put in to something I am passionate about. Consequently, she volunteered me to be a PTA member. It was time for me to engage in my own children’s education, she stated.

Ever since then I have served my school district, from PTA president to Director District 1.”

Escalante is hoping that his years of experience with local

schools will help him stay in his position on the school board.

“My experience in education qualifies me for the Director District 1 position,” he said. “In 1986, I graduated from high school from the Los Angeles School District. During my years of active duty, I enrolled in the United States Department of Labor and completed the Purchasing Agent Apprenticeship program. Having the experience in getting a technical education, I decided to become a college student and, in 1997, I graduated from college with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology, while on active duty serving my country in the United States Navy. In November of this year, I will be completing my internship and will receive my Master of Science in Mental Health Counsel for the Gulf War. People need to know that I care about the quality of education for each child in our school district, and I have the experience and the tools required to work in collabo-

ration with teachers, administrators, staff and board members to come together and move forward to create a safe and inspiring learning environment for our children.”

Escalante believes that his experience is what sets him apart from his opponent.

“The experience in a governing board is something I already possess,” he said. “I will be investing my time in working on what is important for the district and the priorities identified by our community and the district administration recommendations to the board — rather than going through the learning curve on how the district is governed. We have policies in place that a new board member needs to become familiar with and then question it, not the other way around. I have a strong, effective, collaborative working relationship with the board. Therefore, together we will build consensus and make decisions that positively impact our students and the community

Michael Blank

Oscar Escalante

we all live in.”

Blank said that what sets him apart from his opponent is a new view on the role of education.

“I feel that what sets me apart is a fresh perspective on the issues,” said Blank.

“My opponent has never had to face someone in an election and 12 years in one position is plenty. Our founding

fathers never intended for people serve that long in one position. You need to have turnover so the people can be fairly represented. Let’s thank my opponent for 12 years of service to the community and give me a try. I know I can do the job, I just need the voters to give me a chance.”

The general election is set for Tuesday, Nov. 5.

County contributes to city park upgrades Arlington is among the seven cities in Snohomish County that will benefit from a total of $460,000 in county funds to upgrade their local parks, with improvements ranging from trails to gazebos to lighting.

The cities — Arlington, Marysville, Everett, Edmonds, Lynnwood, Mountlake Terrace and Mukilteo — collectively invested $4 million in park projects. The county’s 2013 REET II bond funding

package provided the additional funds to improve nine local parks.

“It’s important that children in Snohomish County have a safe place to play,” Snohomish County Executive John Lovick said. “New playground equipment, trails, benches and lighting make parks inviting to children, and provide great opportunities for adults to enjoy the natural beauty we have here in Snohomish County.”

Lovick, County Council members and county parks staff began presenting ceremonial checks to city representatives on Monday, Oct. 7.

Arlington will use its $50,000 in county funds for new restrooms, with full ADA access, at Haller Park and Trailhead, while Marysville will use its own $50,000 for a 10-foot-wide paved trail, connecting the Bayview Trail and Centennial Trail at the 84th Street trailhead.

Arlington volleyball battles against Knights

BY LAUREN SALCEDO lsalcedo@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Lady Eagles volleyball team faced a tough opponent in Kamiak on Tuesday, Oct. 8, but proved they were up for the challenge.

“They were a really trough team and they played really well, but so did we, and in that sense, I was really satisfied with the way we played,” said head coach Chad Palmiter. Arlington lost the first set, 24-26, but won the next two, 25-23 and 26-24. It was in the last two sets that Kamiak turned it around to take the victory, winning 25-14 and 15-9.

“With any loss, it’s tough after, because it’s kind of a let down, but the more I thought about it and looked at our stats in the game, it’s definitely a step in the right direction for us,” said Palmiter.

“The real killer is that if we won that first set it would have been over in three. It was a battle for Lauren Salcedo/Staff Photo the first three sets, but Kamiak found another gear to shift into.”

Audrey Frolich, No. 11, was the Eagles’ stat leader in their game against Junior Audrey Frolich was Kamiak on Tuesday, Oct. 8, with 17 kills and 20 digs. the stat leader for the match,

with 17 kills and 20 digs. Shelby Shackelford had 17 digs and 18 assists.

The Eagles are facing a difficult time, with several team injuries and strong Wesco South opponents. “[Brooke Johnson] got injured in the very first match. She slipped on some water on the floor and sprained her wrist,” said Palmiter. “It’s just basically been bothering her the whole season, which is a frustration, because she is a captain, a leader on the team, and a very strong hitter. It’s been a nagging injury that has plagued her. She keeps it in a brace when she is not playing, and uses that athletic tape that helps give support during games. That’s been a struggle this season.”

Johnson was able to battle through to get 10 kills in the match against Kamiak. Although Johnson’s injury allows her to keep playing, the Eagles lost two players to other injuries that keep them out of the game.

“Amy Revelle, one of our passers, has a concussion and hasn’t

been able to play for almost two weeks,” said Palmiter. “She can’t see any activity until she is symptom free. Also, Michaela Krogan is out for the rest of the season due to problems with her back.

That’s a big loss, because she is one of my starting middles and we had to pull up a player from the JV team to fill that spot.”

Even though they showed they could compete against Kamiak, they still face strong Wesco teams from the South division.

“It’s basically the three best teams in the South right in a row,” said Palmiter. “Kamiak lost a couple of close ones, but otherwise I expect they will keep playing at a high level, and Jackson is a traditional powerhouse. EdmondsWoodway has been playing really well too, so this is a tough stretch for us. But we played so much better against Kamiak that at least we are moving in the right direction, and I don’t see why we can’t pull out a win, especially at home.”

The Eagles face EdmondsWoodway on Tuesday, Oct. 15, in an away match at 7 p.m.

SNOHOMISH — The Eagles’ tennis team faced the Snohomish Panthers in an away match on Wednesday, Oct. 8, losing overall 6-1 to Snohomish.

Arlington’s No. 1 singles player, senior Trent Sarver, defeated Snohomish’s Andrew Ivelia, 6-1, 6-1. The Eagles No. 2 singles player, Connor Ghirardo, battled against Snohomish’s Jory Strickland in a 6-4, 2-6, 6-3 match. The Panthers’ Kincaid Norris defeated Arlington’s Nick Mendro, 6-0, 6-0, while Norris’ teammate Adam Ivelia defeated Arlington’s Isaiah Mitzelfeldt 6-2, 6-2.

In doubles play, Arlington’s team of Jessie Vaughn and Rawley Davis battled on the court, but the victory went to Snohomish’s Colton Casto and Collin Gagnon, who won 6-4, 6-0.

Lucas Lynum and Coleman Davis, of Arlington, also fought a tough match against the doubles team of Cam Marchant and Drake Wilson in a 6-1, 6-1 loss.

Arlington is a young team with a 1-8 league record and a 1-10 record overall. However, several of the players are training hard to make it into the post-

season, according to head coach Sean Cunningham.

next few decades, establishing the Arlington area as a manufacturing and industrial center by the 1970s.

Like most other locations, however, Arlington’s fortunes were far from immune from the nationwide recession, which slowed local business growth.

“It was a fairly significant decline during the downturn,” Ellis said. “Since then, over the last 18 months, we are really seeing an increase in the industrial and manufacturing businesses once again, and the economy plays a big role.

We’ve been able to do some redevelopment, including the closed Brunswick Boat Company plant which sat empty for three years. That’s a significant area, in that it’s 470,000 square feet of building space. The city helped facilitate it, but it was private investment that did the rebuild, and it has given the community more manufacturing property and bigger building sizes.”

Arlington High School Class of 2010 alumni Davis and Cave were tipped off to some open office space just north of the former Brunswick plant by John Peeters, of Penway Printing in Arlington, and they’ve seen a significant change just since this summer.

“When we first came in, there were a lot of vacant units,” said Davis, co-owner of Vitalire Clothing with Cave. “The first couple of months, there were only three other cars in the parking lot. There’s only two or three empty spaces now, though. A lot more people are working here daily. Even the Skookum Brewery, just down the road, has gotten busier by leaps and bounds.”

Numbers from 2012 show that there are 170 employers in the industrial market surrounding the airport, and that roughly 5,400 jobs were generated that year in the industrial and manufacturing areas.

“That makes Arlington the city with the second highest concentration of manufacturing jobs in Snohomish County per capita, second only to Everett, which has the Boeing plant,” Ellis said. “Our average in Arlington is 1.8 jobs per household.”

“We easily could have gone somewhere else,” Davis said. “What kept us in Arlington was that it has the feel of a supportive small town, but with enough commercial opportunities to become a successful business. We’re right close to I-5,

and Smokey Point is a great thing for business as well. It’s an extremely well-rounded business community, with a place for everybody.”

“We’ve gained more diversity as we’ve recovered,” said Kristen Granroth, president of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce.

“In addition to the manufacturing and basic services that have been well-represented here for a long time, we now have more florists than ever, indoor soccer and trampoline courts, and even a new hotel that’s being built in Smokey Point.”

Although the industrial and manufacturing businesses are booming in Arlington, Ellis noted that there are other areas of business that need some development.

“Retail has probably been a slower market in Arlington, but we really want to see more retail here,” said Ellis. “We want those businesses to serve the people of Arlington, and we want residents to be able to get the things we need here in town. We support the ‘Buy Local’ program, and want to keep that tax money in the local community. Retail is definitely a priority, and we want to continue to provide an area for industrial businesses and allows people who move here and live here to provide family wage jobs. We want to provide residents with options.”

Shalan and Braaten concede that, when they traded the heavy consumer traffic of the Seattle Premium Outlets for the more leisurely pace of Main Street Arlington, they reduced their volume of customers, but they also significantly cut their expenses and gained what they feel is a more welcoming environment in the process.

“At the Seattle Premium Outlets, we had to work mall hours, until 9 p.m. every night, which required us to hire more employees,” said Shalan, a north Marysville resident who was sold on Arlington

885391

by Braaten, a hometown native. “It’s all relative. It’s slower here, but we enjoy it more. It’s a good pace, and it’s growing all the time.”

In 2007, Arlington saw 52 new businesses, a number that dropped by 10 the following year. In 2009, 57 businesses opened and 62 opened the following year.

“We saw a steady gain in new businesses throughout the downturn in the economy,” Ellis said. “We have a total of 873 businesses in the city. Of those, 370 are service related, 194 are retailers, 170 are industrial, 49 are restaurants and 90 are medical.”

“Not only can we con-

trol our hours more, but we also have the luxury of getting involved in the community here,” Shalan said. “I love the downtown Arlington community and all of its activities, from the Farmers Market to the Street Fair. I’ve loved the car shows, and I can’t wait for the holidays here. All the businesses on Main Street are really involved with downtown and the community.”

Ellis agreed that Arlington is a great place to open new businesses, and isn’t surprised that business is growing.

“I think the biggest thing that helps foster busi-

ness here is that the city approaches it as a partnership,” Ellis said. “With new businesses in the community, we work through their business development with them, and help them find an appropriate location.

We help them through the whole process to get their facility up and running, and we treat it as a real partnership.”

“Our city’s leadership, from the mayor and the City Council on down to the city staff, have really put their noses to the grindstone to market this city,” Granroth said. “They’ve done their part to drive businesses here, and have

really captured the essence of Arlington and Smokey Point.”

“Arlington is also an inviting area for quality of life, which makes it easier for employers to attract the employees that they want,” Ellis said. “To do that, they need nice schools, parks, services available and housing. We have great school systems, with Arlington and Lakewood, and we have colleges in close proximity.

Last year, we started some apprenticeship programs in town, so machining industries can send their employees here to get education, and that’s kind of the flavor that people are looking for.”

SPEED FROM PAGE 1 Just getting to this point required the city of Arlington to go back to WSDOT, after the city’s requests to lower the speed limit were already denied three times by the

DOT, which finally agreed to measure motorists’ speeds on 172nd Street NE, as part of a study which also analyzed traffic and accident volumes along the road.

“WSDOT agreed to lower the speed limit after they found that stretch of 172nd had 115 accidents in three

years,” Kelly said. “When you’re going from 35 miles per hour, then up to 50 miles per hour, then back down to 35 miles per hour, in such a short stretch, that’s very dangerous.”

“Before we annexed that area, a 50-mile-per-hour speed limit made sense,

because there was nothing there,” said Arlington City Council member Marilyn Oertle, who has also expressed concerns about the left turn off 172nd Street NE eastbound into the Stillaguamish Athletic Club and Weston High School.

“A lot of people also don’t see all the speed limit signs,” fellow Council member Chris Raezer said. “They might see the first 35-mile-per-hour sign, then the 50-mile-perhour sign, but not necessarily see that they have to go back down to 35.”

Kelly explained that WSDOT is guided by very strict rules on this score, which required them to measure the speed at which 85 out of 100 cars were traveling at or

below, as well as the 10-mileper-hour range of speed that most vehicles were driving at.

Since the state still needs to adopt the city’s ordinance on this score before it can become official, Kelly had difficulty predicting exactly when the new speed limit signs might be posted.

The City Council also voted that evening to authorize staff to publicly advertise for the construction of the 173rd Street Utility Improvement Project.

“When completed, 173rd Street will connect Smokey Point Boulevard to 51st Avenue, also known as Airport Boulevard,” Kelly said.

“Construction on this road has been broken down into three phases, and we’re look-

ing to install the water and sewer utilities for Phase 3 of the 173rd Street alignment, between 43rd Avenue and Airport Boulevard.”

The Council’s regular session meeting on Oct. 7 saw little discussion on this subject.

Kelly had already explained to the Council during their Monday, Sept. 23, workshop meeting that an especially dry year had resulted in a water table that was 8 feet below the surface, rather than its usual depth of only 3 feet.

“We won’t have to do nearly as much dewatering,” said Kelly, who estimated that alone would yield the city $350,000 in construction savings. “We need those utilities to be in place before we build that road.”

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Arts Council is pleased to announce that Heather Logan will be honored as its Art Advocate of the Year at the AAC’s 11th annual “Fall Into Art” auction on Saturday, Oct. 19.

An assistant administrator at Cascade Valley Hospital, Logan was instrumental in gathering an impressive body of art for Arlington’s hospital after its remodel was complete several years ago, and she also worked with Skagit Valley Hospital to provide art at the Cascade Skagit Health Alliance in Smokey Point.

The art collections at both hospitals include a great variety of styles and media, by local and regional artists, and provide an excellent distraction for patients and visitors at the hospitals.

ARLINGTON — Arlington singer/songwriter Jesse Taylor’s debut studio album, “Out Here in the Country,” has been submitted to the Grammy Awards for nomination as the Best Country Album of 2013.

The album contains 11 original songs, nine of which were written by Jesse and two by his dad, Jody Taylor.

The album was submitted by Grammy awardwinning producer David Hall, who worked with Jesse Taylor on producing it at Nashville’s Blackbird Studio in November of last year.

“I am proud and excited to have submitted Jesse’s record for Grammy consideration,” Hall commented. “Jesse is an extraordinary talent and the kind of person you want to see succeed in this business. I believe he is destined for country music stardom.”

The 26-year-old Arlington native left his job last year as a wrangler at the Ko’ele Stables, and singing at the Four Seasons Lodge at Ko’ele, on the Hawaiian island of Lana’i, and returned home to devote himself to his music full-time. Since then,

he has traveled through seven states, performing at venues ranging from the Clovis, Calif., Rodeo to the Outlaw Saloon in Cheyenne, Wyo. In March, Taylor traveled to Dubai,

at the invitation of the U.S.

Navy, to entertain Navy service men and women deployed from Bremerton during their port visit.

He will be spending this fall and winter performing at venues throughout Washington and Oregon.

The Grammy nominations will be announced during a television special on Dec. 6. CBS will televise the annual Grammy Awards show on Jan. 26, 2014, from the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

PTSA Family Fun and Info Fair draws crowds

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Special Education PTSA’s fourth annual Family Fun and Info Fair returned to Cedarcrest Middle School

for the second year in a row on Wednesday, Oct. 9, to inform families about the resources that are available to children who are receiving special education services, as well as to connect families to the community and each other.

Jessie Atkins, fundraising and programs chair for the Marysville Special Education PTSA, deemed this year’s event a success, for both the fundraising and the turnout that it generated, with more than $800 and 150 attendees drawn by

the evening’s activities.

MSEPTSA President Alicia Champine, co-vice presidents Angi Wilson, Amy Sheldon, Preston Dwoskin and Jim Strickland, Secretary Jessica Cantrell, Legislative Chair Barbara O’Kelly, Holly Harbridge of the Fundraising Committee and Atkins herself were joined by Marysville School District Superintendent Dr. Becky Berg, Assistant Superintendent Ray Houser, School Board President Chris Nation, and Special Education directors Tracy Suchan Toothaker and Ken Chovil.

More than 15 vendors were on site, including the Lions Club, the Arc of Snohomish County, the Snohomish County Division of Developmental Disabilities, the Snohomish County Down Syndrome Association, Council PTA, PAVE, Health First Chiropractic and Warm Beach.

“Our food and activities and crafts for kids were complemented with the

new addition of a ‘quiet and calming room,’ so that children who were easily overstimulated could calm down,” Atkins said. “The partnership between the Cedarcrest Middle School PTA and the Marysville Special Education PTSA helped to make this event a huge success.”

Atkins also thanked the Espresso Connection, the Tulalip Resort Casino, Reading Sparks, All Aboard and the Down Syndrome Community for serving as donors for the MSEPTSA auction, whose monies go to support families of children with disabilities and their schools.

“This fair is a unique opportunity for people in our greater community, who have or know children or adults with disabilities, to meet others who care and understand,” O’Kelly said.

“It’s where strong and lasting connections are created, and helpful resources are shared, that are designed to improve their lives and involvement in their schools

and in their community. It’s all about people coming together to form powerful relationships, and discovering ways that support the good of everyone, including those with disabilities, in our community.”

The community is also invited to MSEPTSA’s upcoming general meetings, which have been tentatively set for the second Tuesday of each odd-numbered month — November, January, March and May — from 6:30-8:30 p.m. in the Kellogg Marsh Elementary library.

“We’d love to see as many people as possible show up,” Dwoskin said. “If you want to become a member of the Marysville Special Education PTSA, your membership fee is due on your first meeting.

Non-members cannot vote, but non-members are still allowed to attend our public meetings.”

Please contact O’Kelly by phone at 425-754-9945, or via email at barbara@mseptsa.org, to take part or find out more.

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

Announcing a new, high tech method for the treatment of Peripheral Neuropathy 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?
