School district puts levies on February ballot

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville School District has submitted two levies for the Feb. 11 election ballot, and representatives of the school district met with parents and other members of the public in the Totem Middle School library on Dec. 4 to explain the distinctions between the two levies, including the respective needs that each one seeks to serve.

Marysville School District Superintendent Dr. Becky Berg was joined by Jim Baker, executive director of finance for the school district, in explaining that the $106.4 million educational programs maintenance and operations levy is a replacement levy for an existing levy that’s otherwise set to expire at the end of 2014, while the $12 million technology levy is a new levy. Both levies are four-year levies,

MARYSVILLE — Although the freezing temperatures that have already arrived could be coupled with precipitation over the weekend, the city of Marysville began planning for winter snow and ice when the fall had barely started.

“We’ve got between 700800 tons of sand here at Public Works,” said Charlie Burke, Streets and Surface Water Manager for the city of Marysville. “We’ve got an additional 200-250 tons at the north end of town, to take care of that area and the Lakewood triangle. We actually reclaim a lot of our sand.”

Burke touted the city of Marysville’s fleet of vehicles equipped for snow and ice control, including four

10-yard trucks and a single one-ton truck for plowing and sanding, another 10-yard truck that sands exclusively, two five-yard trucks, and another truck that dispenses anti-icing liquid.

“We provide 24-hour coverage, but we split it into three eight-hour shifts from Monday through Friday, and two 12-hour shifts during the weekend,” Burke said. “The number of employees per shift is slightly heavier during the day, but you’ve got about 10 during the day, between eight to 10 on the swing shifts and around eight to nine at night.”

Burke characterized last year’s winter as mild, since the city only used 830 yards of sand on its streets, but he agreed with city of Marysville

which would collect tax dollars from 2015-18, which means that, even if they’re approved by voters, neither levy would start collecting tax dollars until the end of next year.

“The educational programs levy is absolutely critical to the school district, because it’s not just about maintenance and operations,” Berg said. “It touches upon every area in which we work with kids. It pays for 20 percent of the daily school operating budget.”

“We’re grateful to see the tough times mostly behind us, after five straight years of budget and enrollment reductions,” Baker said. “For the first time in five years, we’ve seen upticks in student enrollment and new funds from the state, which is the good news, but we’re still at 2008-09 levels of funding support. We’ve lost a lot of ground in the

Jim Baker, executive director of finance for the Marysville School District, explains that the district has a lot of catching up to do, even now that its budget and enrollment numbers are trending positively for the first time in five years.

expectations.”

The replacement levy’s average annual rate would amount to an additional 30 cents per $1,000 of assessed home value, which would

add up to a new cost of $60 per year on a house valued at $200,000. In return, Berg pledged that the levy would not only cover priorities such as supporting teachers

dents, which could possibly even improve to a 1:1 ratio for high school students, although she hastened to add that this was a goal rather than any kind of guarantee.

“We can’t just be giving them iPads to use as digital textbooks,” Berg said.

“They should be using these devices to learn how to code and create things online. We have something like 25,000 unfilled STEM jobs in this region.”

The new technology levy would also install security cameras at the front entrance of every school, and extend wireless access to anyone in and around the schools after hours, albeit with filters to ensure that such access is being used appropriately.

“We would welcome groups who meet in our school buildings after hours to use our wireless access,” Baker said.

Berg explained that the first schools to receive the benefits of the new technology levy would likely be those that have already

and smaller classroom sizes, as well as furnishing textbooks, curriculum materials and classroom supplies, but would also help foster fine arts and other activities, including eliminating athletic participation fees through 2018.

“We’re taking a fresh look at all the fees,” Baker said.

Moving onto the new technology levy, Berg pointed out that the last technology levy approved by voters ran out in 2005.

“Anybody who’s been in our buildings knows that, unless you’re in exactly the right spots, our Internet access is unpredictable, because our equipment is aging,” Berg said. “The new technology levy basically boils down to wireless devices and access. Our students have better access at McDonald’s than they do in their classrooms.”

Berg acknowledged the rapid pace of changing technology, but speculated that the new technology levy could supply such wireless devices at a ratio of one device for every two stu-

established themselves as early adopters of such technology, although she and Baker agreed that the details are still being worked out between now and the start of 2015.

In the wake of Berg’s admission that the Cascade and Liberty elementary schools, as well as Marysville Middle School and Marysville-Pilchuck High School, would all be priorities for bond measures, some attendees expressed concerns about installing new technology in buildings that might be demolished before too long.

However, Baker assured them that any such technology would either be easily moved to new facilities or in line for upgrades by the time any new facilities are built.

“Our kids need to be leaders in this field,” Marysville School District Board President Chris Nation said.

“The Board has taken this on as a priority because this kind of STEM education is not an option anymore for creating productive citizens.

There are going to be haves and have-nots, and we don’t want to be on the wrong side of that.”

The average annual rate for the new technology levy would be 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed home value, or an annual new cost of $100 on a house valued at $200,000.

“That’s less than the insurance on your cell phone,” Baker said.

Losing a few battles to win the war

O

ne of the lessons I’ve learned in my work as a teacher is that learning is not a passive phenomenon, something that can be done to students — it requires the active participation of the learner.

We often refer to this personal investment of time and energy as engagement. It’s like the gears of a car — when they are engaged we have movement, when they are disengaged we have idling.

When students are engaged as learners we see growth, when they are disengaged we see stagnation, or even worse, regression.

A problem I run across more often than I would like is that of students who are disengaged from the learning process. For whatever reason, these students are just not connecting with whatever is going on in the classroom. It could be the curriculum, it could be the methods being used, or it could be a variety of external factors that have nothing to do with the classroom. Either way, it is sad to see these students just idling their time away, going through the motions (or not) just to get through the day.

When good teachers see this happening, they take the time to find out what is going on. They do their best to connect with the disengaged student and see if they can find some common ground to start from. And often this is enough to spark the interest that engagement requires and get things moving forward.

But unfortunately, it doesn’t work all the time. In more extreme cases, teachers must think outside the box to find ways to help students engage.

This might include things like modifying their schedule, exempting them from certain requirements, giving credit for work done outside of school, or allowing students to attend fewer periods on campus and get credit for volunteering or working in the community. One of my

students who has a devastating history of school disengagement and disruption has recently gotten excited about getting his food handlers permit, working toward his driver’s license, and getting school credit for volunteering at a local restaurant.

Unconventional, yes, but it has produced a spark that, with a little nurturing, will hopefully develop into a roaring fire.

In the process of doing whatever it takes to create that allimportant engagement, however, it can be very difficult to simultaneously satisfy all the state requirements for a traditional high school diploma. Sometimes it comes down to having to choose between engagement and graduation, and that is a terrible choice to have to make. Sure, it would be nice to have the diploma, but engagement can literally mean the difference between life and death. In these cases, it has to trump the diploma every time.

It’s like a person racing across the desert to win a glass of water. If they collapse mid-way through the race, they can’t respond to our nagging or bribing them to keep running. What they need is water — now!

Wouldn’t it be great if Marysville led the way in creating an alternative diploma that allowed creative approaches to finding the engagement that these students need without sacrificing the right-of-passage that is high school graduation? This would be an inspiring example of putting people before policy and demonstrating the flexibility needed to truly meet the needs of all students. In this era of increasingly rigid standards and high stakes graduation criteria, I would be proud to be part of a district with that kind of courage.

Three issues, one solution

ictures in my high school yearbook show the 1951 student body of West Valley High as 100 percent lilly-white Caucasian and with few exceptions, average to slim in build. What a contrast with last year’s M-PHS yearbook that pictured a healthy mix of races from around the globe and an unhealthy trend toward obesity. Call the obesity issue, Issue No. 1.

Issue No. 2 is workers’ unpreparedness for retirement. One websource reported that the average baby-boomer without a company sponsored retirement plan has set aside only $38,000. If there is a company-sponsored plan, the nest-egg rises to $88,000. Another source estimated that workers over 55 with established retirement plans have socked away $130,000 toward retirement and when they’re vested in company plans for 10 or more years the amount rises to $230,000.

If we look at how much workers have saved and invested outside their employer-sponsored plans, workers under 35 had $6,000 or less in savings, ages 35-44 averaged $22,500, ages 45-54 averaged $44,000 and ages 55-64 had saved $65,000. Since Social Security may not be a sure thing and if income from interest and dividends from retirement accounts yields 6 percent per year, it would take a portfolio totaling $667,000 to produce a retirement income of $40,000 per year. Today’s average worker is going to come up short.

And now for Issue No. 3: People who study dining patterns claim that society averages between 4.8 and 5.1 restaurant dinners per week per person. Of course that’s a mix of pizza joints, fast food and fancy restaurants but no matter where prepared food is bought, chances are high that it delivers an overload of fat, salt and costs anywhere from three to 10 times that of good

home nutrition. Add a Starbucks habit and the weekly bill for two is upward of $250 per week.

That $250 per week can run $13,000 for a year, and that’s with no tips, alcoholic beverages or deserts and ordering only the cheapest things on the menu. Seattle’s actual annual average for households eating and coffeeing out runs $11,269, but that figure lumps in povertylevel households that won’t be dining out much.

Believing that all things are connected it seemed natural to assume the three issues are joined. Obesity, insufficient retirement savings and the expense of dining-out are so linked that they might respond to a single solution: Home cooking.

How do you fight obesity? Begin with healthful home cooking. How to save more for retirement? Cut food expenditures by replacing high-cost prepared food with lowcost home cooking.

Keep in mind that we live in a world where the polls never close.

Every food item in a shopping cart is a vote and the physiques of shoppers mirror what’s in their carts to prove it. How is it then, that we haven’t come to grips with the close-to-home issues of body weight and personal finance? It’s so much easier to focus criticism on schools and government and taxes and coal trains while letting body weight and finances spin out of control.

Better to start by focusing on processed foods and how they not only provide lousy nutrition but the extra pounds they add cut into earning power. According to a study of nine nations, a 10 per-

cent increase in a man’s body mass results in 3.3 percent less earnings while the drop for women is 1.8 percent. That translates to an average loss of $1,650 for men or $900 for women. Home cooking done right not only reverses obesity, it leaves more earnings available for retirement accounts.

There are good and bad reasons for not cooking. It’s messy enough that fully 25 percent of the respondents to a survey by Bosch Research said they can’t stand the mess. People working two minimum-wage jobs say they don’t have time, 66 percent said that grocery shopping is their most timeconsuming chore and 28 percent said they simply do not know how to cook.

A division-of-labor issue arises if a wife or husband is saddled with all the menu-planning and shopping chores. Discovering spoiled ingredients in the fridge can be disheartening. But all excuses melt away once householders discover that they can eat better-tasting healthier food at home for a fraction of the cost of restaurants meals.

And no tipping! The core question switches from where we are eating to what are we having for dinner.

Cooking does carry challenges.

It takes time to plan, shop and keep track of what’s in the fridge, freezer and cupboards. Cleaning up carves a piece out of one’s evening. Some couples find it difficult to divvy-up cooking chores to keep one person from being stuck with it all.

The planning part can be easy for anyone willing to trade social networking minutes for searching out healthy recipes on the web. It doesn’t take long to discover that cooking is a creative art, not a chore and once that happens, the battle is half won.

Col. Bruce Estok, district commander and engineer of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ Seattle District, joins Tulalip Tribal Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. and David Allnutt — director of the Office of Ecosystems, Tribal and Public Affairs for Region 10 of the Environmental Protection Agency — in signing the first Native American In-Lieu Fee Program in the nation for Quil Ceda Village on Nov. 26.

Tulalip Tribes establish aquatic resource program

will allow high-quality mitigation for their aquatic resources, to help them develop their environment.”

Sheldon credited Terry Williams, the Fisheries and Natural Resources Commissioner for the Tulalip Tribes, with seeing this program through since he started working with the Tribes.

“This represents the culmination of years of work,” Sheldon said. “This gives us the flexibility to pursue our other economic programs, and shows respect for the Tribes’ sovereignty.”

Sheldon went so far as to describe the Quil Ceda Village ILF Program as vital to the future of the Tulalip Tribes.

“Only by protecting and restoring our tribal watershed lands do we fulfill our obligations to future generations, to leave them a healthy, productive environ-

ment, while also allowing us to develop and manage our lands, to yield a stronger and even more diverse tribal economy,” Sheldon said.

“Our In-Lieu Fee Program is the first by a federally recognized tribe, and we believe that our record on environmental restoration, protection and natural resource management has prepared us to implement and administer this smart and effective program, by providing highquality mitigation within a watershed approach.”

The ILF Program will use a watershed approach to locate mitigation projects, and provide consolidated mitigation targeting specific priority habitat, water quality and hydrology functions, based on the critical needs of each sub-basin within the Quil Ceda Creek watershed.

“The Corps believes that effective ILF Programs are vital to helping it protect

the aquatic environment, efficiently administer our regulatory program, and provide the regulated public with fair, timely and reasonable decisions,” said Gail Terzi, a mitigation specialist for the Army Corps of Engineers. “ILF Programs are very intentional in how they embrace a watershed approach and, as such, are optimal tools for addressing watershed needs.”

“The EPA commends the Tulalip Tribes for this proactive move to protect the Quil Ceda watershed,” Allnutt said. “Watersheds and aquatic resources are a valuable part of the broader ecosystem in this area, and this program will result in thoughtful decision-making to protect this tribal resource.”

“We may not realize how big this is now, but generations down the road will be thanking us,” Sheldon said.

TULALIP — Representatives of the Tulalip Tribes, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency sat down together on Tuesday, Nov. 26, to officially establish the first Native American In-Lieu Fee Program in the nation, for aquatic resource impacts and compensatory mitigation.

Tulalip Tribal Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. was joined by Col. Bruce Estok, district commander and engineer of the Army Corps of Engineers’ Seattle District, and David Allnutt — director of the Office of Ecosystems, Tribal and Public Affairs for Region 10 of the EPA — in signing an ILF Program Instrument for Quil Ceda Village, with the purpose of providing compensation for unavoidable impacts to wetlands and other aquatic resources, resulting from construction projects within the boundaries of Quil Ceda Village itself.

“This is a very significant event,” Estok said. “With the Tribes’ leadership, this

ARLINGTON — For more than two decades, the Arlington Fire Department has been delighting local children, and helping the Arlington Community Food Bank stock its shelves for the holidays, through its annual “Santa Run” food drive, and from Dec. 7-15, Arlington firefighters and community volunteers will again be escorting Santa Claus on a festively decorated fire truck through several of the town’s neighborhoods during the evenings.

Santa and his team will be collecting non-perishable food and cash donations for the Arlington Community Food Bank from 5-8:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and from 6-8 p.m. on Sundays, as well as from Monday, Dec. 9, through Thursday, Dec. 12.

“This event is the largest annual contributor to the Arlington Community Food Bank, collecting approximately 5,000 pounds of food annually,” said Arlington Fire Capt. Dave Kraski, who noted that last year’s totals hit more than 6,000 pounds of food and $500 in cash donations. “It takes a minimum of eight or nine volunteers

a night, but there are many nights when we have upwards of 15 or 20.”

Cascade Valley Hospital Community Relations Coordinator Jennifer Egger noted that this number includes not only Arlington firefighters, but also employees of the city of Arlington and Cascade Valley Hospital.

While the Arlington Santa Run’s website at www.santarun.net has been live for a few years, offering PDF maps of the Santa Run routes for each evening, Egger encouraged Arlington residents to “like” the Santa Run’s new Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ afdsantarun for further information on the event.

“The existing website has been a great way to let the community know where Santa will be, but we’d love to see people posting their pictures of the Santa Run on our Facebook page this year,” said Egger, who reminded the community of the reason for the event by citing the Arlington Community Food Bank’s especially pressing needs during this time of year. “Cash donations are greatly appreciated, since the Food Bank has resources for bulk and discount buying, that can make a little money go very far.”

McCoy appointed 38th District state Senator

The Snohomish County Council unanimously adopted a motion naming John McCoy as the new state Senator for the 38th Legislative District on Nov. 27. He will fill a vacancy created by the resignation of former senator Nick Harper.

In accordance with state and county laws, the Council began the morning by conducting interviews with three candidates whose names

were forwarded by the Snohomish County Democratic Central Committee — state representatives John McCoy and Mike Sells, and Kelly Wright.

Following the interviews, the Council met in a special session, during which McCoy was nominated and approved on a 5-0 vote to fill the vacancy, until a successor is elected and qualified in the 2014 general election.

The procedure to replace McCoy’s vacant House position will be the same as that taken for the state Senate appointment.

Because it is a partisan position, state law requires that the party of the outgoing legislator holds a special legislative district caucus, in order to nominate a list of three candidates to fill that vacancy.

The Democratic Precinct Committee Officers for the 38th

Legislative District will be conducting this special caucus on Tuesday, Dec. 10, at 7 p.m. to nominate three names from among the potential candidates. That recommended list, given in the order of their vote count totals, will be considered by the general body of the Snohomish County Democratic Central Committee, made up of Precinct Committee Officers from the entire county, who are sched-

The county Democrats will vote and provide this list of three candidates to the County Council in the order of their vote totals, after which the Council is scheduled to interview those three candidates on Monday, Dec. 16, at 1:30 p.m. in the Jackson Board Room on the eighth floor of the Admin East building on the county campus, with action likely to follow.

Salon collecting for hospital patients

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — For eight years after their 26-year-old son Cameron passed away from cancer, Magic Shears co-owners Randy and Debbie Howell donated items to the oncology department of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center of Seattle, but as they planned their collection drive last year, the Arlington couple decided to focus on the needs of those a bit closer to home.

So, for the second year in a row, Magic Shears’ collection box will be taking in books, games, blankets and other items to comfort the patients at Cascade Valley Hospital’s oncology department.

“We know how tough it is to spend time in a hospital with nothing to do,” Debbie Howell said. “This community helped us out through our son’s illness, so we’d like to return the favor.”

Magic Shears has already taken in a few Teddy bears

“Lap blankets help keep the patients warm, since they get cold very easily when they’re undergoing treatment,” Howell said. “Freshly knitted hats and scarves will not only keep them warm,

Benjamin A. Ross November 8, 1962 — November 28, 2013

Benjamin Aaron Ross, 51, of Marysville, WA passed away on T h u r s d a y, November 28, 2013 after a courageous yea r-long fight against t-cell nonHodgkin’s lymphoma.

Ben was born in New Smyrna Beach, FL on November 8, 1962. He spent his early childhood years in Edison, later moving to Sedro Woolley where he attended high school. Ben married Tina Roney from Stanwood on December 28, 1986 in La Conner.

Ben was employed

by Boeing Commercial Airplanes in Everett for 28 years working in various Quality positions and, most recently, as an FAA Designee on the flight line.

He was an avid fisherman of salmon, halibut, ling cod and Dungeness crab in the waters of Puget Sound and local rivers. He shared his passion for fishing with family and friends, many of whom spent time fishing with him on his dream boat ‘Expensive Therapy’.

Ben is survived by Tina, his loving and devoted wife of 26 years, and their daughter Hannah with

whom he shared a very special bond; father Fred Ross (Ursula); m o t h e r Joan Edson, brother Bill Ross (Patti), loving in-laws, nieces, nephews, long-time childhood friend Terry Dahl and fishing buddies Danyon, Doug, Mike and Steve. He was preceded in death by stepfather Harold Edson, brother Chris Ross and sister Sonjia Figueroa.

The family would like to thank Dr. Shustov and his staff at Seattle Cancer Care Alliance and the staff at UW Medical Center for their care and support of Ben during the past year.

In lieu of flowers the family requests that donations be made in Ben’s memory to the T-Cell Leukemia Lymphoma Foundation (TCLLF) on-line at http://tcllfoundation.org/ donations or TCLLF, P.O. Box 22418, Seattle, WA 98122.

A Celebration of Life and viewing of ‘Expensive Therapy’ will be held on Sunday, December 15, 2013 at 2:00pm at the Everett Yacht Club, 404 14th Street, Everett, WA.

but also help prevent them from catching germs from used clothing items.”

The Howells plan on dropping their collections off to Cascade Valley Hospital around Christmastime, in memory of their son.

“They’re in our backyard and they need it,” Howell said. “Arlington is our bread and butter, and it’s supported us throughout the years.”

Magic Shears is located at 306 N. Olympic Ave. in Arlington. For more information, call 360-435-3833.

this room before was about half-full,” Clarke said on Dec. 3, as the Food Bank’s collection truck pulled into Health First’s parking lot. “Our patients just like donating to the Food Bank.

Both our patients and staff have been hugely enthusiastic about this drive, so we’ve done what we can to encourage them.”

Health First Chiropractic incentivized the giving spirit of its patients by offering them a free day of services in exchange of a shopping bag full of food, but Clarke credited his patients with already having a heart for their fellow community members.

“Times have gotten more challenging in the past 10 years, but our patients have always been passionate about donating,” said Clarke, who credited one patient with donating 135 pounds of food by themselves. “By making it more fun to donate, we simply made people want to donate more.”

Even his office’s recordsetting collection goal for this year played into the lighthearted spirit of the collection drive, since Clarke wanted to be able to tell people that “we collected literally a ton of food,” much of it in the form of canned vegetables and soup, which the Marysville Community Food Bank had specifically requested.

“My oh my,” said Larry Donovan, a volunteer for the Food Bank, when he first saw Health First’s floor full of stuffed shopping bags on Dec. 3. “It’s very nice to have businesses like you. The whole community has been really good to the Food Bank this year.”

HOLIDAY BRIEFS ARLINGTON — The Arlington Pizza Factory at 509 West Ave. is hosting a vendor fair on Sunday, Dec. 8, from noon to 4 p.m. to raise funds for Operation Christmas Hope.

Those with a taste for pizza and supporting the less fortunate are invited to stop by and help support the community of local business owners by putting gifts under the trees of Arlington children in need.

Ten percent of the day’s proceeds will go toward Operation Christmas Hope, and donations of food and unwrapped gifts will be accepted at the Arlington Pizza Factory as well.

Camp Fire kids sing for Food Bank’s supper Dec. 9-10 MARYSVILLE — The Haggen Food & Pharmacy located at 3711 88th St. NE in Marysville will serve as the site for the third annual holiday ornament canned food drive, by two Mega Camp Fire Clubs in Marysville, from 4-6 p.m. on Dec. 9-10.

Leslie Buell, one of the adult club leaders, explained that the Marysville Camp Fire kids have been busy making felt gingerbread men, as well as other felt ornaments that will be displayed on a foil tree at Haggen’s. These ornaments will be free, in exchange for any canned food donations the kids collect for the Marysville Community Food Bank at Haggen’s.

Bring them a donation and you can pick any ornament off their tree.

“Each year, we collect between 80-100 pounds of food, and with both the Marysville Mega clubs — Westwood Crossing and the Cedar Grove Apartments — caroling this year, we hope to double that number,” Buell said. “Last year, we had a lady who picked out a brown felt gingerbread man, then went shopping, and when she was leaving the store, she had enjoyed her ornament so much that she donated even more items, and picked out another gingerbread man.

That was so touching for the kids who worked so hard making each felt gingerbread man.”

Buell praised her Camp Fire kids with being so invested in giving to others during the holidays that one of the girls

from the Cedar Grove Apartments club, Lyndsey Roman, also volunteers at the Marysville Community Food Bank after school on Tuesdays.

“These Mega Clubs have been very active and motivated in our community, between the All-City Graffiti Paint-Out, the Handmade and Homegrown Street Festival, and the American Cancer Society Relay For Life,” Buell said. “This was our first year participating in the Marysville Relay, and not only did we meet our goal, but we enjoyed it so much we will continue doing it.”

The Camp Fire kids will be singing traditional and newer holiday songs at Haggen’s this year, with Kellyleah Hart of the Westwood Crossing club performing a solo rendition of “Silent Night” on Dec. 9.

Marysville firefighters join Santa in collecting for Food Bank Dec. 9-11 MARYSVILLE — Firefighters from the Marysville Fire District Local 3219 will again team up with Santa Claus from 4-7 p.m. on Dec. 9-11 at the Marysville Safeway, located at 1258 State Ave., to help make the holidays a bit brighter for the Marysville Community Food Bank.

The Marysville firefighters’ annual holiday food drive is returning to its old stomping grounds at the front entrance of the Safeway because the community’s needs remain pressing, according to Tom Maloney, Division Chief and Fire Marshal of the Marysville Fire District “During this time of year, the Marysville Community Food Bank relies even more than usual on the community’s spirit of giving, to ensure that families in need can celebrate the holidays too,” Maloney said. “Without your generous support, those families will not be able to share in the joy of this season.”

Not only will the Marysville firefighters and Santa gladly accept donations of food, cash or unwrapped toys, but Santa will be handing out candy canes to good boys and girls of all ages in return.

In the meantime, Marysville firefighters will also be collecting for the Marysville Community Food Bank by walking the Electric Lights Parade route during “Merrysville for the Holidays” on Dec. 7.

Birthday boys donate their presents to Toys For Tots Dec. 7 ARLINGTON — On Saturday, Dec. 7, at 5 p.m., Hubb’s Pizza will be hosting a birthday party whose birthday boys

are asking their guests to give presents not to them, but to other children, whose needs are greater than their own.

Emily Countryman’s two oldest boys — Landon, who’s turning 8 years old, and Payton, who just recently turned 5 — are celebrating their birthday together, but members of the community are invited to join them, if only long enough to drop off some gifts for the U.S. Marine Corps Toys for Tots Foundation.

“Since it’s so close to Christmas, I think it’s great that they’re encouraging others to donate to this cause,” Countryman said. “We actually got the idea for this from the fact that the kids have their birthdays so close to Christmas. Especially with a split family, we have so many people who want to give to them, so they thought it would be fun to donate everything to Toys For Tots, after we explained to them about children who are less fortunate.”

Countryman noted that the brothers’ older sister did the same thing for her own 7th birthday party.

“They’re looking for new and unwrapped toys, games and stuffed animals,” Countryman said. “Toys For Tots should be there, hopefully with a Marine, to pick up the donations.”

Countryman expects the party will draw about 40 guests who know or are part of the family, and that the party will last a couple of hours. For more information, call her at 425-422-9787.

Arlington Farmers’ Market presents third annual ‘Handmade Holiday’ Dec. 7 ARLINGTON — The Arlington Farmers’ Market will again tie into Arlington’s “Hometown Holidays” on Saturday, Dec. 7, by conducting its third annual “Handmade Holiday” that same day, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Co-Op Supply at 101 S. Olympic Ave. The seasonally themed annual indoor gift market showcases local artisans in fields ranging from pottery to woodworking, in addition to offering body care services, winter veggies, gourmet food and more.

Baskets of locally grown goods will be raffled to support the Arlington Farmers’ Market, while music and carols play throughout the day. Freshly baked treats will be served up by a local bakery, while free crafts for kids are presented by the Arlington High School Honor Society, who will be supervising children in painting Christmas ornaments.

“This year there will be 13 vendors,” said Samantha Schuller, a spokesperson for the event. “It’s about the same number of vendors that we had last year, but this year, there’ll be a lot more walking room. Last year, it was shoulder-to-shoulder during the busy hours.”

Schuller estimated that last year’s event drew between 800-900 attendees, and reported that many vendors sold out of several items near the end of the day.

“Each year, Arlington comes out to support its artisans during the holidays, in a way that shows the community spirit that is so strong in our town,” Schuller said. “The Arlington Farmers’ Market wouldn’t exist without the continued support of the Arlington community, and our vendors appreciate their support that much more during the off-season and the holidays.

“We only have 166 students at Marysville Mountain View High School, but we’re very proud of how much we collected and how many students participated,” said Kira Bryant, a junior at Marysville Mountain View High School, who served as the committee chair for this project. “We want to continue with this project as long as there is a need in our community.”

MARYSVILLE — The students of Marysville Mountain View High School collected and donated 692 pounds of food for the Marysville Community Food Bank in November.

“Students studied the relationship between substandard nutrition and low school performance in their STEM Foods and Leadership classes,” said Judy Whitman, Family and Consumer Sciences teacher at Marysville Mountain View High School. “They learned that hungry students have a difficult time achieving in school.”

According to Whitman, the students chose to solve this problem by taking action and sponsoring a com-

“We enjoy having the veterans here to tell their stories and show their photos,” Myrtle Rausch said. “The community should come on by and say thanks to those who help keep them safe.”

Mike Schanche spoke at last year’s Military Day following his retirement from his 30-year Navy career, after having achieved the rank of Command Master Chief of Naval Station Everett.

“I see a lot of World War II veterans here, and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart,” Schanche told those in attendance at the Pioneer Hall last year.

“You guys wrote the pages of history, which we’ve strived to uphold. You should take great pride in your legacy, especially as the young men and woman of today’s armed forces continue to uphold your same high standards.”

This year’s Military Day will feature members of Boy Scout Troop 92 conducting the flag ceremony, and

ARLINGTON — Although Dec. 7 marks the anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Hall and Museum take time during the day to honor the service of all American military members as part of their annual “Military Day.” From 1-4 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 7, the Pioneer Hall will host another gathering of veterans and civilian members of the public alike, to recognize and pay tribute to all those in all branches of service, both those who have served and those who are currently serving.

Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Association President Myrtle Rausch recalled that Military Day began in 2000, with the dedication of a military memorial on site, and has been observed each year since on Dec. 7, making this the 14th annual Military Day at the Pioneer Hall.

“We’re received about 20 attendees a year in recent years, but we could see more this year, since Dec. 7 falls on a Saturday this year,” Myrtle Rausch said.

Myrtle’s husband, Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Museum caretaker Marty Rausch, noted that re-enactors and military vehicles have appeared frequently at previous Military Days, but he agreed with his wife that the day’s main purpose is to afford community members an opportunity to meet veterans, and for veterans to exchange ideas with each other.

“My brother was in the Korean war, and it wasn’t until after he died that I found out that he’d earned a Purple Heart,” Marty Rausch said.

“I try to make it here every year, to show my respect and honor our past and present military members,” said David King of Mill Creek, whose military vehicles can usually be seen parked outside the Pioneer Hall during its Military

Adam is the new sports reporter for both papers, which marks the culmination of his lifelong love affair with sports, even though he didn’t realize until relatively recently that he could make a career out of his interests.

when I was growing up,” Adam said. “I liked keeping up with the games and the athletes, but it wasn’t until I transferred to Pacific Lutheran from Bellevue College in 2011 that I learned I could write about it as a job.”

While Adam makes an effort to keep himself abreast of important events in as many fields of sports as he can, he admitted that his three favorite sports are football, basketball and wrestling.

“I played football in high school, and I appreciate all the different positions,” Adam said. “All the players have significant roles, and I like how they line up and progress the ball.”

Adam has followed both football and basketball on TV, but while he was drawn in by NBA games in elementary and middle school, he’s just as fond of college basketball and March madness.

“I’ve never wrestled, but it’s like boxing or MMA for me, in that I enjoy seeing contact between two contenders who are physically competing,” Adam said.

Adam’s first internship was for the Issaquah Press in 2012 as its outdoors and recreation reporter, before he went into multimedia coverage for the nonprofit Discover Parkland last spring. Between that and his post-graduate freelance work for the SnoValley Star, Adam has become well-versed in professional reporting for localized publications.

“I saw them all as tests, to see if I could apply what I’d learned at Pacific Lutheran to the outside world,” Adam said. “I think it’s demonstrated that I can do journalism, but I’m always looking forward to gaining new experiences and building more skills. You have to keep learning how to do stuff in this field. I want to get feedback, so I can get better.”

In addition to becoming more multifaceted as a journalist, Adam is aiming to become a trusted community resource for the readers of Marysville and Arlington.

“Even as a sports reporter, I’m still a journalist and a steward of the public’s trust,” Adam said. “I want to do that service for the public.”

Mizell family honored as Volunteers of the Month

MARYSVILLE — Tara and Jim Mizell and their family were recently honored as city of Marysville Volunteers of the Month for guiding the annual holiday food and toy drive that supports clients of the Marysville Community Food Bank.

The Mizell family, including college-age daughters Peyton and Kayley, coordinated the All-City Food Drive on Nov. 2, a one-day annual event that officially kicks off the holiday season of giving in Marysville.

They worked with several volunteers and participating grocers to collect donations, staff the red holiday food barrels at store entrances seeking donations of food and toys, and deliver donations to the food bank.

Through their combined hard work and dedication, the food and toy drive generated 6,000 pounds of food and $1,300 in contributions.

By the time the holidays arrive, it is not uncommon for the food and toy drive to garner 43 tons of food donations, assist more than 1,200 families through the distribution of holiday food baskets, and put smiles on the faces of 1,100 children in need who receive a toy or gift card.

“While the Mizells serve the community in many different ways, it’s the food and toy drive that fills their hearts most at this time of

In preparation for the food and toy drive, the family spends early mornings and late evenings attending planning meetings, and coordinating various programs and events dedicated to serving others.

The Mizells have been strong supporters of the Lakewood School District over the past 15 years, comanaging its PTSA and Booster clubs, and assisting with its levy and bond campaigns. On average, they

give 30-40 hours per month of their time.

Jim is a firefighter for the Marysville Fire District, while Tara works as the city of Marysville’s Parks and Recreation services manager. Elder daughter Peyton is a graduate of Linfield College in McMinnville, Ore., while Kayley is an education major at Western Washington University in Bellingham.

The Mizells are quick to share credit with their covolunteers in what is a successful team effort.

“We truly admire and are grateful for the Mizell fam-

ily’s commitment to volunteerism,” Nehring said.

Those who wish to donate should look for the red giving barrels at more than 60 participating locations in the Marysville community.

People can also take donated non-perishable food items, unused toys, stocking stuffers, cash cards, candy and wrapping materials to the Marysville Community Food Bank, located at 4150 88th St. NE, behind St. Mary’s Church, from 8 a.m. to noon on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays, and on Tuesdays from 2-6 p.m.

Tomahawks fall to Arlington, 68-42

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — The young Marysville-Pilchuck varsity basketball team suffered its first loss of the season against the Arlington Eagles in a 68-42 defeat Dec. 3.

The game started competitively but in favor of the Tomahawks. M-P managed to stay on top through the first quarter and the beginning of the second quarter, leading the Eagles 14-11.

Tomahawk supporters, adorned in red and white, congregated toward the center of their stands, cheering on their team in hopes of a season-opening win.

Despite help from M-P’s home crowd, the Tomahawks’ momentum wore down as the more developed Eagles began sinking three-point shots, rallying in the second quarter.

The Tomahawks struggled to keep pace with the Eagles, who outscored the Tomahawks 31-19 by halftime.

“Our on-the-ball defense needs to be better,” M-P

Head Coach Bary Gould said.

The point deficit increased after the half.

The Eagles were all over the Tomahawks’ side of the court, outscoring them by 15 points to the end of the third quarter.

The Tomahawks struggled to answer with baskets of their own. “Our offense was stagnant at times,” Gould said.

M-P’s defense couldn’t catch a break as the Eagles shut them out in the final period of the game, ending the night at 68-42.

In addition to issues on the Tomahawks’ defensive and offensive sides of the ball, Gould stated the team’s inexperience was what gave them the most trouble that night. “We’re really young, and even where we’re not young, we are really inexperienced,” Gould said.

“We have two solid returners,” Gould said.

“Everyone else was on the JV squad last year.”

According to Gould, there are no starting seniors on M-P’s team. Arlington, on the other hand, has five.

On top of that the Eagles

went to the state tournament last year and have returning varsity players.

“They’re a good team,” Gould said. “We try to schedule our non-league opponents to where they can be challenging and revealing.”

Though it was a disappointing start to the season against a tremendous opponent, Gould and his players are still hopeful for a strong season.

The result of the game showed crucial things the team can improve upon.

“It’s a big learning curve. It’s a way faster game,” Gould said. “We will definitely adjust, and its going to be positive.”

Gould was impressed with how his young team was able to hold its own and lead at the beginning of the game. “Its uncharacteristic of what we have done,” Gould said. “In the summer, we were typically a slower-starting team.”

Executing on defensive plays and converting on free throws are some aspects the team is looking to improve upon. “We got to the free throw line

Marysville-Pilchuck junior Michael Painter dribbles past an Arlington defender. a lot,” Gould said. “But we got to convert on those and knock them down.”

Gould felt that if the team had an answer to the Eagles’ consistent three-point shooting, it could have turned the tide of the game. “That could’ve been a big momentum swing,” Gould said.

Sophomore point-guard Bryce Juneau was pleased with his team’s performance

despite the loss.

“We went through a lot of stuff and worked really hard,” said Juneau, who was one of the highest scoring players on MP’s team.

Juneau scored eight points, tying with junior Cole Grind and senior Caleb Keeton.

Juneau hopes that the team’s hard work will translate into wins for upcoming

games. “I’m proud of this team,” Juneau said.

M-P’s played at Snohomish on Dec. 6, and their Alumni game will be Dec. 7, beginning at 7:15 p.m.

Arlington tops Lady Tomahawks, 56-40

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The Tomahawk varsity girls basketball team got a rough start to its season, losing to the Arlington Eagles 56-40 on Dec. 4.

The Tomahawks faced off against a team that placed second in the state tournament last year.

The Tomahawks had a more experienced team than their opponents, with the majority of their players being seniors.

Most of the Eagles’ roster consisted of sophomores, but some of those players competed as freshmen from last year’s team. The age advantage had no effect for M-P, as they lost by a 16-point deficit.

M-P was ice cold in the beginning. The Eagles’ offense wasted no time scoring buckets, displaying their offensive skills. Within the first quarter, the Tomahawks were down 8-0 before they were able to put

numbers on the board.

The Tomahawks began to warm up at the end of the first quarter, with the quarter ending 10-4.

M-P enjoyed a brief rally in the second quarter where the game seemingly could have gone either way. The Tomahawks were able to hold a brief lead, with the score at 17-15.

“They switched their defense on us, and that caught the girls off guard,” the Tomahawks’ Head Coach Julie Martin said.

“But when we finally adjusted, it was too little, too late.”

It was the Eagles’ ability to score on defensive plays, and consistent three-point scoring, that ultimately halted the Tomahawks’ temporary success.

The Tomahawks would be playing catch-up, as the Eagles led the remainder of the game.

The Tomahawks fell behind 24-17 at the half.

The Tomahawks continued

to be outscored after the half as the Eagles continued hitting three-pointers. By the third quarter, the Eagles were leading 43-26.

The Tomahawks experienced some success of their own on offense, and the visiting crowd from their high school was behind the girls every step of the way.

The M-P faithful’s spirit and size seemed to match that of Arlington’s home crowd and band, cheering every shot their team scored.

Martin commended her players’ efforts throughout the match.

They fought hard,” Martin said. “They are fighters.”

The Tomahawks were able to hit three-pointers of their own, showing that they also had the heart and skill to compete at an elite level.

The Tomahawks continued to fight on, trying to keep pace with the Eagles. M-P reduced their point deficit from the

third period’s 17 points, to being behind 16 points by the conclusion of the game.

Despite the M-P’s valiant effort, and the encouragement from their supporters, the Tomahawks were outscored and outplayed on both sides of the ball, resulting in their first loss of the season.

Though it was not an ideal start to the season, Martin still sees positive aspects coming out of the first game, such as revealing weaknesses the girls could improve on.

“I feel like we have a lot of things to work on as a team,” Martin said. “Overall, it showed us what we need to do for future games.”

Martin hopes the team’s hard work will pay off in the upcoming season. She hopes her team will continue their tremendous effort and ultimately enjoy the game.

“I just want us to come together and play hard for the 32 minutes,” Martin said.

Marysville cold weather shelter opens

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The cold weather shelter at the Damascus Road Church in Marysville received its first guest during its opening night, from 8 p.m. on Dec. 2 to 7 a.m. on Dec. 3.

Jason Brower, the service and missions deacon for the Damascus Road Church, noted that the shelter would be open every night during the week, from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m., but added that the shelter still needs churches to partner in providing volunteers for Wednesday evenings. He praised Pastor Victor Rodriguez and his fellow members of the Marysville Free Methodist Church for their able staffing of the shelter’s inauguration.

“It was exciting to see the cold weather shelter open up, even with the Seahawks playing on national TV,” Rodriguez said. “Several volunteers mentioned they were DVRing the game, and didn’t want any game updates.”

More than 20 volunteers staffed the shelter during its intake period of 8-9:30

p.m., most of whom came from the Marysville Free Methodist Church.

“It was great to see so many volunteers come out to get some on-the-job training,” Rodriguez said.

“As we met folks from other churches, you could feel the camaraderie grow, as we worked together on this initiative.”

Even before their guest registration opened, the crew of 20-plus volunteers helped set up the shelter from 7-8 p.m. Rodriguez credited Marysville Police with helping to get the word out about the shelter, and with sending several officers over to tour the shelter around 9:30 p.m.

“We had homemade soup, which was a delicious treat,” Rodriguez said. “The planning paid off, as things ran smoothly.”

If the cold weather shelter hadn’t been open that evening, Rodriguez reported that its first guest would have slept in his car that night. Instead, not only did the shelter provide him with a warm, safe place to sleep, insulated from the freezing temperatures outside,

but shelter volunteers also served him a hot dinner and breakfast.

“He was very appreciative of the shelter,” Rodriguez said. “Even with only one guest, it was gratifying to see the shelter open up, after about a year of planning and working to get everything in place. It’s a joy, in keeping with the spirit of Christ and Christmas, to see so many people in our wonderful Marysville community coming together, to share compassion in this tangible way. We look forward to seeing a need met in our city, so that anyone who needs to get out of freezing weather for a night of shelter can find it here.”

Rodriguez praised Brower and Jon Baylor, another member of the Damascus Road Church who’s helping to coordinate the cold weather shelter, for the parts they’ve played in making it possible. As for Baylor, he expects the shelter will serve many more people in need this winter.

“At about 7:30 a.m. [on Dec. 3], I heard a homeless man tap on the window as I was getting ready

to lock up,” Baylor said.

“He asked about the shelter, and whether it would be open every night at the same place. I told him that we would be open, at the Damascus Road Church, every night the temperature hit freezing. He was very excited, and told me he would be there that night,

along with some other people. He said he was going to spread the word.”

The Marysville cold weather shelter is open at the Damascus Road Church, located at 1048 State Ave., from 8 p.m. to 7 a.m. when nighttime temperatures are 32 degrees or colder. Dinner is served and admission

is allowed until 9:30 p.m., after which the shelter locks down, with breakfast following from 6-7 a.m.

Space at the shelter is limited to 24 spots. For more information, call 360-6597117, or email Brower at jbrowerus@yahoo.com or Baylor at jonbaylor67@hotmail.com.

WINTER FROM PAGE 1 Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen that road safety remains a top priority for the Streets Department, as it maintains 196 miles of streets within the city to keep traffic moving throughout Marysville as efficiently as possible.

“We check the weather forecasts daily,” Burke said on Wednesday, Dec. 4.

“When we had that cold snap on Monday, [Dec. 2,] we put down de-icer, which lasts for a few days, depending on the temperature, the wind and the moisture in the air. At least every three days that the temperature is below freezing, we lay down more de-icer.”

Even before any deicer was applied to the city streets, the city began amassing its sand supply and assembling its snow and ice response crews in September, before it met with the Washington State Department of Transportation in October to review any changes to their routes, procedures or equipment. Prior to the city’s subsequent meetings with the Marysville Police Department, the Marysville Fire District and the Marysville School District

The Arlington Times • The Marysville Globe

in November, to review their resources and map out how they might overlap, city crews conducted an inhouse training exercise in early November.

“It’s a field exercise that gets them used to the trucks and equipment again,” Burke said.

“We’re proactive in our approach, ready and prepared for any major snow and ice events that affect Marysville this year,” Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said. “Our dedicated snow and ice response teams are ready to keep traffic moving and motorists safe on local roadways, to the best of our ability and with the least amount of disruption, while protecting lives and property.”

Just as city of Marysville Public Works and Emergency Management staff meet to share strategies and information with neighboring jurisdictions and utilities before the arrival of winter weather, so too will the city’s in-house database system track its dispatched crews’ responses to create a more efficient work flow. Nielsen added that the city’s snow and ice removal plans aim to augment that efficiency further by designating snow and ice routes, for sanding and plowing, according to

prioritized zones based on the streets’ topography, traffic volumes and any special usage.

Street crews will concentrate their snow and ice removal efforts on arterials leading into and out of the city, as well as arterials on hills within the city limits, routes providing fire and police access, and then all other arterials within the city limits. As such, city crews’ responses will be focused on priority routes and arterials, such as State, 51st, 67th, 83rd and Twin Lakes avenues, as well as Fourth, Grove, 88th, 116th, 136th, 152nd and 172nd streets west of I-5 in the Lakewood area, and Sunnyside, Ingraham and Smokey Point boulevards.

A full map of the city’s snow routes can be found on its website at http://marysvillewa.gov.

“We go all-out to make our roads as accessible as possible for the public, and commuters heading to and from work or schools, but the city doesn’t have the resources or the equipment to plow or sand residential neighborhood streets and cul-de-sacs,” said Burke, who acknowledged that city crews can remove snow and ice outside of those parameters, if requested

by Marysville Police or

Fire personnel, even as he deemed this a rare occurrence.

“We have crews driving sanitation trucks and other heavy Public Works vehicles on a daily basis, in addition to the police and their vehicles,” said Nielsen, who warned that the city might close certain roads during winter weather due to safety concerns. “We won’t jeopardize the safety of city employees by putting them in dangerous winter driving situations.”

When “Snow Closure — Do Not Enter” signs and barricades are placed at these locations, motorists and even pedestrians are

advised not to go around them.

“In general, be cautious and use common sense when out driving or walking in freezing weather,” Burke said. “Make sure your tires are appropriate for the weather, either studded or with chains, and if you have to park on the side of the road, park safely. Our plows are about 10-12 feet wide, so it’s hard for them to move around a lot of cars.”

For the most current online information about local emergency or road conditions and preparedness, you can visit the city’s website at http://marysvillewa.gov, which includes

several interactive features, among them an Emergency Alert Center that offers the latest updates. You can sign up to get emergency alerts sent to your email address and cell phone through the site’s “Notify Me” email subscription service.

Updates are also posted on the city’s Facebook and Twitter sites, as well as on Marysville Comcast TV 21 and Frontier TV 25 cable access stations. You can even call the city’s message-only Emergency Alert Hotline at 360-363-8118.

City Council honors Koster

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Outgoing Snohomish County Council member John Koster was honored by the Arlington City Council, including his successor Ken Klein, on Dec. 2 for his work on behalf of the citizens of the city of Arlington and the county as a whole.

Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert read from the resolution honoring Koster, whose 12-year term of service on the County Council began when he was sworn into the First District seat, which includes the city of Arlington, in January of 2002.

Tolbert then listed Koster’s accomplishments during his tenure, which have included stints as the County Council’s chair and vice chair, in addition to chairing the Planning and Community Development Committee, the Operations Committee and, currently, the Law and Justice/Human Services Committee.

“I think you had them all, didn’t you?” Tolbert laughed.

“I did, just about,” Koster said with a smile.

Tolbert also noted Koster’s service to the citizens of Washington for three terms in the state House of Representatives, as well as in organizations including the Puget Sound Regional Council, the Washington State Association of Counties — of which he was president in 2011 — and the National Association of County Officials.

“Despite his accomplishments and long record of public service, John still has the heart of a third-generation dairyman who never forgot where he came from or his hometown,” Tolbert read from the resolution, which like-

Outgoing Snohomish County Council member John Koster is honored by Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert and the Arlington City Council on Dec. 2. wise cited Koster’s graduation from Arlington High School and Everett Community College, and his service as Board president of the Arlington Christian School.

After Tolbert read from the resolution crediting Koster not only with demonstrating commitment and dedication to the citizens of Snohomish County, but also with enhancing the county’s initiatives and accomplishments through his leadership, communication skills and ability to forge alliances, she added some personal words of thanks.

“You have been a great friend to this city, its citizens, its elected officials and its staff,” Tolbert said.

“It’s been an honor to serve the

citizens of this city and the county,” Koster said. “The county and the city of Arlington have had a great working relationship over the years.”

When Tolbert presented Koster with a framed copy of the City Council’s resolution, Koster presented her with a framed picture in turn, marking the closing of the Centennial Trail gap at the Armar Road Trailhead on Oct. 15, 2011.

“That project was a demonstration of his fortitude and stick-to-itiveness,” Tolbert said of Koster, who acknowledged at the time that he was “guilty of harassing” Snohomish County Parks Director Tom Teigen, by constantly asking him when the gap would be closed.

Kids can stop by to see Santa in the depot at Legion Park from 1-3 p.m., while musicians and other entertainers perform in the Legion Park gazebo, and the Lifeway Foursquare Church of Arlington serves up cocoa and crafts for children, as well as the Festive Sweater Contest hosted by Pastor Chad Blood.

“Last year, one of the Old Bags of Arlington won it,” Lopez said. “She was totally decked out, and she’ll probably be back this year, so the competition is sure to

we’ll be treated to the musical talents of Arlington High School, through John Grabowski’s band and Jeff Swanson’s choir. And if any kids are wondering whether Santa is real this year, all they have to do is see his real beard.”

The 25th annual “Merrysville for the Holidays” will get off to a slightly later start that day, with its holiday crafts show showcasing more than 25 vendors of handmade gifts from 2-8 p.m. in the Ken Baxter Community Center, but it also lasts much later into the night, since its Electric Lights Parade doesn’t start proceeding south along State Avenue until 6:30 p.m., roughly around the same time that the community bonfire is lit in Comeford Park.

The outdoor grounds of Comeford Park will serve as the site for the majority of “Merrysville” activities in Marysville, from

Free covered wagon rides will be available from 12:30-4:30 p.m. to take Hometown Holidays attendees up and down the length of Olympic Avenue, while the Co-Op Supply store hosts the Handmade Holiday market from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and the City Hall plaza serves as the site for the Old-Fashioned Bake Sale.

The Stillaguamish Athletic Club will likewise kick off its Toys For Tots Fun Run at 11 a.m., while the Local Scoop restaurant conducts its annual gingerbread house competition that same Saturday.

Saturday, Dec. 7, is when all the holiday fun happens in Arlington and Marysville.

Arlington’s “Hometown Holidays” will kick off with the Santa Parade at noon on Olympic Avenue, and follow it immediately with the tree-lighting ceremony at Legion Park.

“It’ll be a big reveal,” said Sarah Lopez, recreation manager for the city of Arlington. “Because of the timing, we’ll be able to get everyone together for it, much easier than we did when it took place later in

Among this year’s featured activities and sponsors are the Marysville Lions and Kiwanis clubs, Ivar’s Seafood Restaurant, Vinaccio Coffee, the Marysville Dog Owners Group, Marysville Kids Matter, the MarysvillePilchuck High School Band Boosters, BECU, the Marysville Co-Op and the Girl Scouts. The Marysville Community Food Bank will also be collecting food for its Christmas meal basket distribution on Dec. 16, 17 and 20, and toys for its Toy Store on Dec. 18-19.

The Downtown Marysville Merchants Association will be tying into this year’s activities by offering “Late ‘til 8” shopping, keeping stores on historic Third Street open from their regular business hours until 8 p.m. that Saturday, as part of their annual “Passport to Christmas.”

“Bert and Herb, our strolling minstrels, will be going from store to store from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.,” Hilton Pharmacy owner Mary Kirkland said. “We’re not sure yet if Santa will be able to put in an appearance near the Outer Court, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed.”

The Washington Traffic Safety Commission recently asked people what the goal should be for the number of traffic deaths in Washington.

Everyone indicated they would like to see fewer people killed. But when asked what the goal should be for their family members, everyone responded, “Zero.”

To reach zero traffic deaths takes effort from everyone, so law enforcement is asking you to join them in working toward zero traffic deaths, by logging onto www.

WAdrivetozero.com to review important safety tips, such as: n Call 911 if you see a suspected DUI driver on the roads. n If you drink, use marijuana or take other drugs, don’t drive. Make plans beforehand for how you’ll get around. n If you’re hosting a party, make sure your guests get
