State Sen. Kirk Pearson of the 39th District took some time to talk to The Marysville Globe and The Arlington Times about the 60-day state legislative session that’s set to commence on Monday, Jan. 13, as well as his own priorities moving forward.

“It’s going to be fast and furious,” Pearson said on the upcoming session, which he does not believe will be followed by a special session.

“Looking to the big picture, we’re going to be focusing on transportation, the general fund budget and the capital fund budget.”

Looking to last year’s legislation, Pearson expressed pride in the $1 billion in funding that was secured for K-12 education, as well as a halt on college tuition increases for two years, which he deemed a significant achievement even as he jokingly acknowledged that his own son graduated from college too early to benefit from it.

“The last time we didn’t have a tuition increase was 1986,” said Pearson, who credited the coalition of his fellow Republicans and Democrats with partnering on behalf of common interests. “We have Democrats and Republicans co-chairing committees.”

Pearson himself has served as chair of the Natural Resources and Parks Committee, as vice-chair of the Human Services and Corrections Committee, and as a member of the Law and Justice and Rules committees, the latter of which has afforded his greater discretion.

“Unlike the House, the Rules Committee in the Senate is a real gatekeeper in terms of determining the flow of bills,” Pearson said. “If I see bills that benefit Arlington, I can pick them out for floor action.”

SMOKEY POINT — Even before its official kickoff on Tuesday, Jan. 7, the Arlington Relay For Life had already made a significant head-start on its goals for this year, whose theme is “Give Cancer the Boot!”

The Stillaguamish Senior Center hosted the evening’s activities, information booths and guest speakers, starting with Arlington Relay co-chairs Kim Deisher-Allen and Jessica Angel, as they broke the word “Boot” down into an acronym for their anticipated accomplishments to come. “‘B’ stands for ‘Bold Goals,’” Angel said. “We’re looking to get 135 survivors, 100 teams and 900 participants out to the Arlington

High School stadium on June 21, to raise $205,000.”

“We already have 34 teams who have raised $18,000 so far,” DeisherAllen said that night, before she elaborated that “O” stands for “Opportunities.”

Among the opportunities she cited were the American Cancer Society’s resources for cancer patients and their caregivers, ranging from its 24-hour 800-number and 31 free Hope Lodge locations across the United States, to its Road to Recovery volunteer-provided rides and its Look Good Feel Better beauty assistance program.

“The other ‘O’ stands for ‘On the Track,’ which is where we expect to see all of you starting at 1 p.m. on June 21,” Angel said. “We

January 11, 2014

RELAY FROM PAGE 1 all Relay because all of our lives have been touched by cancer.”

“And the ‘T’ stands for ‘Teams,’ because we literally couldn’t Relay without our teams,” Deisher-Allen said.

“Together, we’re all going to give cancer the boot.”

Deisher-Allen and Angel encouraged the crowds to mark their calendars for the Relay activities ahead, prior to this summer, including the March 22 Paint the Town Purple event in downtown Arlington, the April 19 Purple Block Party in the parking lot of Haggen’s Food and Pharmacy, and the May 31 Bark For Life on the Haller Middle School track.

Madison Taylor, who’s chairing this year’s Paint the Town Purple, touted her sister Bailey as her inspiration.

“She was diagnosed with thyroid cancer, and even though she’s more into fashion and I’m more outdoorsy, she still took the time to play with me, even after her radiation treatments,” Madison Taylor said. “We would pretend to be spies, and spy on our mom, and even though Bailey wasn’t supposed to

The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe

be in tight spaces, our mom would always find us giggling in the closet.”

“Everyone has their own story, and their own reason for being here,” Angel said.

Dawn Clemenshaw and Sheryl Karpinski, co-chairs of the Arlington Relay’s Team Development, shared their story by hefting up a hiking boot, in honor of their recently diagnosed father, since their family always goes camping together around Memorial Day. The sisters then congratulated the members of the “Grand Club,” each of whom had already donated more than $1,000, including Caryn Brown, Carolyn and Shawna Erickson, Gloria Mahoney and D’Andrea Olson.

J.D. Drollinger, of the American Cancer Society’s National Relay Advisory Team, has been a frequent speaker at Arlington Relay events throughout the years, and he returned to this year’s kickoff not only to recall his father’s death from colon cancer in 1977, but also to report that his father-in-law has just recently been diagnosed with bladder cancer and will begin treatments shortly.

Drollinger played Michael Buble’s

“Everything” over the Stillaguamish Senior Center’s speakers as he pointed out the parallels between the song’s lyrics and the relationships between cancer patients and their caregivers.

“When you’re a caregiver, your survivor is your everything, and whatever comes your way, you’ll see it through,” Drollinger said, paraphrasing Buble’s words. “Why do we Relay?

We don’t do it for numbers, or T-shirts. We do it for the people who are our everything, because we know what it feels like to be holding their hands in the doctor’s office, thinking, ‘Boy, I sure hope it’s good news.’ I’m doing everything I can so that my everything can be around for a lot longer. The money we raise through Relay will buy my father-in-law a lot more days.”

After Randy Williams shared how his father’s passing last fall was made easier by hospice, Randy’s wife and Arlington Relay Entertainment co-chair Michelle Williams wrapped up the evening’s activities by organizing a line-dance for all the evening’s attendees to symbolically give cancer the boot with some high-kicking steps.

PEARSON FROM PAGE 2 the revenues of state parks by $27 million through methods such as the bundling and discounting of Discover Passes, and on the Law and Justice Committee, he’s pushed for stronger domestic violence and seconddegree manslaughter legislation.

“The top-of-the-line sentence for seconddegree manslaughter is two and a half years,” Pearson said. “We need to raise those sentences, because life is worth something.”

Pearson freely admitted that the state budget that was passed last year was “not perfect,” but he nonetheless proudly touted it as proof of what the two parties can accomplish jointly.

“People in Olympia are actually very cordial,” Pearson said of his experience in both the state Senate and House of Representatives.

“We may have our differences, and we certainly have strong opinions, but we all work well together.”

As a committee chair in the Senate, Pearson was able to keep a promise he’d made to himself in the House, by prioritizing speakers who had traveled the farthest.

“When you have someone who’s taken time off from work to come all the way from eastern Washington, it’s not right to give them only a minute to speak,” Pearson said.

“We need to show citizens that their legislators value the role that they play. A lot of the bills that I’ve introduced have come from citizens who have brought these issues to our attention.”

When asked about the recent negotiations between Boeing and its Machinists Union, Pearson expressed his relief that the contracts were resolved, not only on behalf of Everett and Snohomish County, but also the state as a whole, even as he sympathized

with the workers’ objections to forfeiting their pensions.

“I was convinced Boeing was serious about leaving the state,” Pearson said, noting the impacts of competition from Airbus, as well as from right-to-work states. “If we lost those jobs, it would impact subcontractors and vendors throughout the state, including the Arlington Airport and Marysville. I wouldn’t want to see local families suffer, and Boeing’s donations have trickle-down benefits to the United Way and school districts.”

Pearson likewise framed his reservations regarding a raise in the minimum wage as motivated by concern for the state’s most vulnerable prospective employees, by citing the disproportionate unemployment levels of women, minority members and young people in the current economy.

“Every time the minimum wage goes up, I get calls from small businesses,” Pearson said. “They want to hire more people, but raising the minimum wage affects their ability to do so.”

While Pearson would prefer to provide improved access to higher-wage jobs, rather than raising wages on entry-level jobs, he reiterated that news reports of partisan bickering between Republicans and Democrats are overblown.

“During the final stages of the budget, everyone met at Rep. Dan Kristiansen’s office, which we called Switzerland because it was neutral ground,” Pearson laughed, alluding to his fellow Republican in the 39th District. “The leader of my caucus, Sen. Rodney Tom, is a Democrat. I served with him in the House, and he supported my ideas even then. If you watch MSNBC or Fox News, you probably see a lot of fighting going on in Washington, D.C., but it’s not that way in Olympia. Both sides can shake hands and come to amenable agreements.”

Lakewood schools celebrate centennial Jan. 14

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District’s annual Open House and Tech Expo on Tuesday, Jan. 14, will feature an additional celebration, as the district commemorates its own 100th anniversary at Lakewood High School from 6-7:30 p.m.

Robin Barker, executive administrative assistant to the Lakewood School District, explained that the Open House and Tech Expo would again feature entertainment provided by students — this year from the Lakewood High School band and Swingbeat, as well as some of the district’s elementary and middle school students — and informational displays from each of the district’s schools and departments, but would be complemented this year by a video and several displays devoted to Lakewood’s history.

“The original Lakewood school building from 1914 was torn down and replaced by what is now Lakewood Elementary in 1958,” Barker said. “We’ll have old archival documents that will be available for viewing, including old class pictures dating back to the early 1900s, and old ledgers with some of the first Lakewood School Board meeting minutes handwritten.”

In addition to providing a slideshow and other exhib-

its showcasing the Lakewood School District’s history from its inception in 1914, and even before that, the event will also offer information to the community on the proposed Lakewood High School modernization bond that will be run on Feb. 11.

Current technology used by Lakewood School District students and staff will also be featured for hands-on interactions with attendees.

Lakewood School District Superintendent Dr. Dennis Haddock and the Board of Directors will be on hand

to greet attendees, who will also be able to enjoy cake and coffee. In addition, 200 laser-engraved commemorative key chains will be given away by the district and Saxton Bradley, Inc., while commemorative T-shirts will also be available for purchase.

“We just want to get the word out as much as possible, because this type of event doesn’t happen that often,” Barker laughed, “only once every 100 years. It would be great if we could get a lot of our past students and staff join us.”

Supporting parents, students with family access

C

ommunication between school staff and parents/ guardians creates a team approach to help our children succeed.

Arlington Public Schools has implemented and used Family Access for grades K-12 for the past few years. Family Access allows parents/guardians to become involved in their child’s education by giving family members access to information over the Internet via a secured web connection in real-time.

Families can take an active role in assisting students and improving their educational experience. The technology raises awareness by opening additional lines of communication between guardians and the school, enhancing communication with the community.

One of the great things about Family Access is that it’s available from home, office or anywhere there is access to the Internet. Secure usernames and passwords allow parents and students access to this module. Once parents have a login username and password from the school office, they are able to look up information in the following areas: n Home: Teachers and school buildings send email messages and newsletters out to parents regarding what the students have done or will be doing along with the due dates for assignments. Parents/guardians are also able to request emails be sent to them when his or her child needs money in their lunch account, to receive grading, attendance or progress report information. n Calendar: Student class assignments are viewable on a monthly calendar. n Gradebook: This tab shows a child’s grades in real time. It makes it easy to see at a glance what projects or tests are scheduled for the day/ week/month as well as seeing class grades for their student. Missing assignments can also be seen here. n Attendance: Parents can view and excuse their child’s absences. n Student Info: This is a way parents can view the information we have on file for their child, including phone numbers, addresses, contact information, emergency contacts, etc. Changes in information must be submitted to the school office for

Guest OpiniOn DEB BOrGEnS updating. n Food Service: This option lets parents check on their student’s lunch balance and add money in their account. There is a comfort in knowing your child won’t be hungry because a lunch account deposit wasn’t made. n Schedule: Viewing their child’s schedule is great when a parent needs to schedule a medical appointment and there is a class they don’t want their child to miss. n Fee Management: Fees for lost books, fines, and class fees (if applicable) are stored here. n Activities: This tab shows the advisor name for activities as well as the dates and activities/athletics in which a student is participating. n Portfolio: Parents can view and print current student report cards easily. n Login History: Shows date, time and area viewed.

In the future, we plan to add a conference scheduler feature so parents can request a conference with their child’s teacher. Tech-savvy parents can even customize the look of their Family Access calendar by choosing the view option of week or month, event colors and whether they want to see district-wide events.

In this day and age when families are busy with work, school, sports and activities, Family Access is a great tool to help parents keep up with their child’s information. It is like one-stop shopping in that you only need one login to access everything. Parents who have not ventured into using Family Access can contact their child’s school office to obtain instructions and a password.

We hope providing easily accessed communication will continue to help families keep organized and up-todate with school information.

Investing back into the community

L

ast year, the city of Marysville made significant headway in re-building funding for some core government services put on hold while we waited for the economy to improve.

While our city government today is by no means flush with money, 2014 should rightly be remembered as the year that we began to invest back into the community. This will be a pivotal year for Marysville’s future.

Investing back into our community is about public safety, streets and roads, parks, neighborhoods, downtown, and job creation and retention.

It’s a commitment to taxpayers that while we continue to look for ways to increase revenues to keep Marysville sustainable and continue a quality of life that builds toward the future, we will always look for new opportunities to save dollars, to be more innovative and operate more efficiently.

And, it’s a statement that living by a disciplined operating philosophy that emphasizes fiscal good health for the short and long-term helps keep us on a course where our young people stay and enjoy successful careers and families, a cleaner and more enticing downtown grows and thrives, our business climate remains second to none, and our streets, roads, sewers and water services are top-notch.

We have reduced expenditures, built reserves in excess of a sustainable goal of 10 percent, paid down city debt including a substantial reduction in a golf course interfund loan, set aside funds for fleet, IT and building maintenance reserves while also starting a capitol reserve fund to allow us to make key investments with less debt in the future, and made city government operations more efficient.

Here is a look at some of the more visible ways that we will be investing back into Marysville this year: n Six new patrol officers (one grant funded) — the 2014 Budget incorporates full year funding for six new police officers (five were added mid- to late-year in 2013, in addition to this year’s hire). The added

Guest OpiniOn JOn nEhrInG MArySvILLE MAyOr

law enforcement positions — combined with a series of commander, lieutenant and sergeant promotions in 2013 — put the department at full strength, and reinforce the value we place on public safety. A north precinct will be opening soon at Smokey Point Boulevard and 156th Street, creating quicker response times to calls for service in the north end. n Renovation of Foothills Park and other neighborhood park maintenance that includes replacement of furnishings and new play systems. n Bayview Trail extension to 84th Street — $100,000 for Phase II construction of Bayview Trail from 75th Street NE to 84th Street in across the eastside Marysville foothills. The project will provided connectivity to the current trail, resulting in a 1.24mile corridor for pedestrian and non-motorized uses. Most of the project will be carried out by City maintenance crews. n Spray Park — We will be making a big splash when we turn on the taps at the new Spray Park in Comeford Park this summer. The spray park will become a refreshing new way for families to safely enjoy fun in the water on hot summer days, and it will be a great attraction for helping create a sense of community in our downtown. n Downtown Revitalization — $150,000 dedicated for revitalization efforts within the downtown area such as gateway improvements, waterfront trailhead or other downtown infrastructure. The city will continue to use public participation involving citizens and businesses to identify potential projects and prioritize improvements. n Qwuloolt interpretive trail — $200,000 for design and trail construction costs tied to the Qwuloolt Estuary Restoration Project.

n Street maintenance and pavement preservation — Increased by $150,000 this year to a total of $500,000 for surface rehabilitation treatments to extend the life of the pavement for some well-travelled roads most in need of repair as determined by Public Works.

Funding for these types of improvements has dried up in years past due to passage of certain voter initiatives and the recession. n “Clean Sweep Week” code enforcement neighborhood cleanup — $60,000 for multiple cleanup and beautification activities deployed as part of Clean Sweep Week activities.

The cost-effective, successful community event would again involve proactive code enforcement to address neighborhood livability and general aesthetics. n We are moving forward with funding for an Interchange Justification Report (IJR) that involves work on the permitting, design and ultimately the approval process for a new interchange.

This work will continue moving us towards our ultimate goal of an I-5/ SR 529 full interchange alleviating the pressure on the I-5/SR 528 interchange and providing a way in and out of the city around the train tracks. This IJR process is the first step that takes about 12-15 months and is intended to put us in a position to aggressively compete for state and federal grant funds for the construction of a full interchange.

Snohomish County has also agreed to help with the cost of this IJR process that is underway and will continue throughout 2014.

The city’s finances are healthy and stable; it is this stable financial picture that gives us the confidence to invest back into Marysville, and move ahead with strategic investments to create the opportunities and a chance at prosperity that our citizens demand.

I want to extend my best wishes to the citizens and families in Marysville for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year.

Concert benefits Lacey Ernst

Marysville Students of the Month

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Local country musician Jesse Taylor’s benefit concert on Saturday, Jan. 4, generated more than $1,000 for 6-year-old Lacey Ernst’s heart transplant account with the Children’s Organ Transplant Association, with the estimated total collection rising with each count, but she’s not out of the woods just yet.

“Lacey received her new heart on Nov. 4, just in time for her 6th birthday,” said Mary Jane Harmon, managing director of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce, which conducted raffles to add to Lacey’s account at COTA. “Her body started rejecting her new heart, so she was in ICU for about five weeks for rejection procedures.”

Harmon reported that Lacey seemed to have rounded the corner on Thanksgiving Day of last year, when she was moved out of the ICU, but even after she returned to her home in Arlington on Dec. 13, she was unable to receive visitors or leave the house, except to make return visits to Seattle

Children’s Hospital. Taylor had planned to visit Lacey and her parents on Tuesday, Jan. 7, after the concert, but medical complications forced that meeting to be postponed for a while longer yet.

“Lacey will undergo a heart biopsy in the next two weeks,” Harmon said. “The family is asking for prayers for this procedure.”

While the initial estimate of the benefit concert’s proceeds was $1,205.02 for COTA, that total was revised within the week to $1,314.02 for Lacey’s transplant account.

Among those who Harman thanked, on behalf of the Chamber and the Ernst family, were Taylor for donating his time and talent, Dwayne Lane’s for sponsoring the event, Gene and Debi Morgan of Magnolia Hall in downtown Arlington for donating the venue, Rick Carpentier and R.J. Davis of the Medallion Hotel in Smokey Point for giving of their personal time, and KCIS Radio for promoting the event from Dec. 30 through Jan. 4, as well as all those who attended the concert and made additional donations.

MARYSVILLE — Marysville Getchell High School seniors Jordon Silcox and Katie Stordahl have been named the Kiwanis and Soroptimist Students of the Month for December.

Silcox has been active in the local Key Club and played football for Marysville Getchell.

His academic achievements include enrollments in Honors Physics, Pre-Calculus and AP Language Arts.

Among Silcox’s community service activities, he’s volunteered 60 hours at the Marysville Community Food Bank and served 55 hours as a member of the stage crew for a production of “Legally Blonde” by the Marysville Getchell and MarysvillePilchuck high schools. He’s also helped out with the Marysville Kiwanis Club’s annual pancake breakfast and spent 12 hours a week, for nine weeks, working on Marysville Parks projects.

A member of the Goodwill Youth Aerospace program, Silcox plans to enroll in Everett Community College’s two-year program for technical design, before acquiring a job at an aerospace company while he furthers his schooling. Ultimately, he hopes to attend college to become an aerospace engineer.

Stordahl currently serves as vice president of the School for the Entrepreneur, president of the Flowchart Club, and a member of the National Honor Society, DECA, the SFE Mentor program and the Future Business Leaders of America. Through the latter, she’s attended fall and winter regional conferences in 2011 and 2012, and the state conference in 2012.

From 2011-12, Stordahl was a member of the Marysville Getchell track and field team, and she currently captains the MG girls

basketball team. She’s cleaned the home and visitor stands after every football game since 2011, and she spent 25 hours helping her mother organize, set up and clean up after last school year’s Marysville Getchell/ Jordon Silcox Marysville-Pilchuck auction, to support student athletes through their respective schools’ booster clubs.

Stordahl spent two years each collecting for the Marysville Community Food Bank Katie Stordahl and helping Soroptimist International of Sno-King with their annual fashion show and tea fundraiser. During her sophomore year, she paid weekly visits to Sunnyside Elementary to help its first-grade students, and in 2012, she coordinated the Make-A-Wish Home Run Derby fundraiser that was sponsored by the FBLA and raised more than $200.

Stordahl’s awards and honors include being nominated for Homecoming Royalty in 2011 and 2013, and winning both the Wesco All Academic Award and the Marysville Getchell School for the Entrepreneur Most Spirited Award in 2013, as well as the MG Varsity Athletic Award for two school years in a row, plus the SFE Student of the Quarter in 2012.

Stordahl plans on attending a four-year university in Washington state, and studying business management or business hospitality, with an eye toward ultimately earning her master’s degree and becoming an event planner for both businesses and charities.

Klein sworn in on County Council

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

Ken Klein is sworn in to the Snohomish County Council by Superior Court Judge Joseph Wilson on Jan. 6.

EVERETT — Former Arlington City Council member Ken Klein was among the three Snohomish County Council members who were sworn in on Monday, Jan. 6.

Klein stepped into his first

term of representing District 1 after fellow Republican and Arlington native John Koster had served his maximum allowed three terms.

Klein noted that the scope of his responsibilities had grown, but he nonetheless credited his experience on the Arlington City Council with helping to prepare him

for his new role.

“The great thing about Arlington is that it’s a fullservice city, so especially with the airport and the hospital, I was dealing with many of the same issues there,” Klein said, before laughing, “They’re just a lot bigger now.”

To that end, Klein

described his current focus as diligently doing his homework on the issues that are impacting the county.

“As we get into discussions about these issues, I want to make sure I know the history behind them before they come up,” Klein said. “The biggest issue coming up is the comprehensive plan for the county, because as each of the cities put forward their own proposed comp plans, we have to make sure they’re on the same page as the county. So far they seem to be.”

While Klein has a new office, he assured citizens of both Snohomish County and his hometown of Arlington that he would remain accessible to them, at the same time that he encouraged them toward greater civic involvement.

“A lot of big things start out relatively small, which is another reason why you should care about what’s going on with your city’s comp plan,” Klein said.

“Your neighborhood could look very different in 10 years based on decisions that are being made right now. On the City Council, people came to us wondering why certain buildings were suddenly sprouting up, and we told them that it was because of decisions that had been made 10 years before. At the same time, as elected officials, it’s our responsibility to explain that process, so it’s a two-way street. I want to be as much of an asset to the citizens of our cities and our county as I can.”

Terry Ryan was also sworn in for his first term on the Council, representing District 4, while incoming Council Chair Dave Somers was sworn in to complete his third and final term on the Council, representing District 5. Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Joseph Wilson conducted the proceedings, swearing in each of the three members.

“I want to thank the voters of north Snohomish County for the opportunity to serve them,” Klein said.

“I look forward to working with constituents, county employees and fellow elected officials to ensure that Snohomish County is the best place to work, live and visit.”

His desire to improve the community’s quality of life extends to volunteering his expertise in the Dominican Republic, where he helped to improve sanitation in local villages. “EvCC laid the foundation for my career as a civil engineer,” he says. “The lessons I learned of teamwork, respecting others, and hard work I use daily in my career as Snohomish County Engineer.”

Arlington scores 64-50 victory over Bruins

Senior point guard Kaleb Bryson looks for a way past a Cascade defender. Bryson totaled four threepoint shots against Cascade.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Eagles boys basketball team scored another win with a 64-50 victory over the Cascade Bruins on Jan. 7.

Senior point guard Kaleb Bryson had a hot hand, collecting four three-pointers on the night.

Senior guard Bradey Brummel made a tremendous offensive and defensive effort, making steals as well as being Arlington’s highest-scoring player.

“Brummel played lights out tonight,” Arlington Head Coach Nick Brown said. “He brought it on the defensive end and he brought it on the offensive end.”

On offense, Brummel capitalized on midrange shooting and totaled 19 points. “He made a huge difference tonight,” Brown said. “He hit a lot of midrange jump shots.”

Brummel felt his shooting was a combination of his confidence and play-calling by coach Brown. When Brummel felt he was warming up, he asked Brown for the ball.

“I started to feel it,” Brummel said.

“We have the chemistry to where I can tell him, ‘I am feeling it,’ and he trusts me enough to give me the ball, and go for it.”

The first quarter started with the Eagles winning the tip. The Eagles were met by defensive pressure by the Bruins.

The Eagles responded to the Bruins’ defense through fast passing and accurate shooting. Bryson made three threepointers in the first quarter, boosting the Eagles’ lead.

The Bruins’ offense showed they had speed, and tried to play the Eagles fast.

“They’re a quick team,” Brown said.

“We’d make a run on them and they would make a run right back.”

The Eagles countered the Bruins’ fast playing by keeping them outside their paint and causing steals.

“We started off playing good defense,” Brummel said.

Brummel made his first steal of night, as well as showcasing his shooting. Brummel was able to hit a three from downtown in the first quarter. The Bruins were able to score using their speed, but not enough to keep up with the Eagles. The Eagles led at the end of the first quarter, 22-10.

Bryson opened the second quarter with a three, maintaining the Eagles’ lead. The Bruins challenged the Eagles, matching their scoring with 14 points, showing they were still in the game.

“We kind of slacked off a bit,” Brummel said The Eagles’ strong lead in the first quarter kept them in control of the first half, with the score at 36-24.

After halftime, the Eagles came back out, finding their shots with senior guard Gavin Smoke opening with a three.

“We got it together the second half,” Brummel said. “We worked the ball around and made that extra pass.”

The Eagles were able to find their shots, but so did the Bruins. The Bruins were able to match the Eagles’ score again, but the Eagles still had the lead, with the third quarter ending at 50-38.

In the fourth quarter, the Eagles finally outscored Bruins, but only by two. The Eagles scored 14 to the Bruins’ 12.

Though it was another win for Arlington, Brown did see some areas for improvement. “I think they did a good job against us,” Brown said. “We didn’t do it very pretty.”

With their sixth win in a row, Brown hopes his Eagles will keep doing what they do best.

“We’ve just got to take care of business,” Brown said. “Our league is tough, so we have to bring it every night.”

Brummel also hopes the team cohesion will continue throughout the season. “I just hope our team chemistry keeps going well,” he said. “I hope we keep doing the same stuff we’ve been doing in the last couple of games.”

As of Jan. 9, Arlington’s holds a league record of 5-0.

Aviators start new year with victory over Rapids

BY MERRICK PARNELL Arlington Aviators

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Aviators started the new year off with a bang, running down the Whatcom S.A. Rapids 7-4 in Bellingham, on Jan. 4.

Since the schedule was first released by the Premier Arena Soccer League, players, coaches and fans circled the Jan. 4 date on their calendars, because the Rapids and Aviators have emerged as fierce rivals on

the I-5 corridor, and even the pre-season match was highly competitive, intense and physical. This match would be no different.

In front of a near-capacity crowd at the Bellingham Sportsplex, the Aviators took the pitch against the Rapids, eager to slug it out in what would be a heavyweight bout.

The Rapids would score quickly on a goal from Sean Connor at the 2:30 mark.

The Aviators would not

get on the score line until 1:15 left in the first, from a solid goal from Gunnar Johannesson. The first period ended in a 1-1 tie, and the rest of the first half would stay neck and neck, with both teams trading scores. The Rapids led at the half by a 3-2 score, with a goal from Bellingham’s 15-year-old prospect Tyler Hughes, and a goal by Nick Selleto.

At the half, both teams headed back into their

clubhouses, but only one returned with the energy, heart and passion needed to surge into the second half.

“It was a tale of two halves. The first half we were lucky to be down 3-2, the second half we came out controlling the game,” said Arlington coach Phil Bartlow.

The Aviators looked like an entirely different ball club in the second half, playing the game at

a streaking pace. Sprinting every shift, battling for every ball and blasting solid shots past the Rapids’ keeper. At the end of the third, the Aviators were up 4-3 on the Rapids, with one of those goals scored on the Aviators’ only power play of the match, by James Doherty.

The Rapids tied the game on another Sean Connor goal, but that was not enough to stop an Aviator Attack that cann-

oned three more goals to win 7-4. With the win, the Aviators move to a 4-1 record. Bellingham moves to 2-3 on the season.

From here, the Aviators will hit the road again for two more matches, against Burnaby FC and Snohomish. Arlington will return home on Feb. 1 at Soccer First Indoor Sports Arena, to face the Rapids in what should be an intense rematch. Tickets are going for $5 at the door.

New City Council members sworn in

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington City Council swore in not only re-elected incumbents Chris Raezer and Debora Nelson on Monday, Jan. 6, but also newcomers Jesica Stickles and Jan Schuette, as all four Council members recited the oath of office to kick off the Council’s first meeting of the New Year.

Although Stickles and Schuette had been regular attendees of the Council’s meetings as citizens, they agreed that one of the biggest changes of being on the other side of the table in their first meeting as Council members was the increased leeway it afforded them to ask questions and voice their opinions.

“I didn’t that night, but I am just getting warmed up,” Schuette said.

“Before, I had to write my questions down, and ask a director or Council member afterward,” Stickles said. “You miss out on the dialog opportunity, with all the people involved.”

Since Stickles had already been attending Council meetings for more than a year, she

found few surprises during her first meeting, although her newfound status as the liaison to the Public Safety and Economic Development committees has given her some additional responsibilities.

Schuette acknowledged that one of her most significant ongoing adjustments will be remembering that her actions from now on will be viewed as those of a Council member, rather than a private citizen.

“The perception will be that whatever I say or do is as a Council member,” Schuette said. “That’s going to take some getting used to, and I hate second-guessing myself.”

By contrast, the election of Schuette and Stickles, as well as the re-election of Nelson, contributed to a milestone that Schuette herself had almost overlooked.

“City Attorney Steve Peiffle pointed out that, for the first time in the history of Arlington, women now hold the majority of positions on the Council, and it wasn’t a big thing,” Schuette said. “I hadn’t even thought about it, which was interesting, as I’ve been the first woman in several different

situations.”

Both Schuette and Stickles noted that they’re dealing with the aftermath of a budget that they came into office too late to work on. While Stickles plans to focus on her committees, as well as on getting more familiar with the community’s needs and opinions, Schuette is already calling for a property tax increase to offset the impacts of that budget’s cuts.

“In order to balance the 2014 budget, the city eliminated all budget allocations to equipment repair and replacement,” Schuette said.

“Our reserve is lower than what is required by our own policies. The city has already cut 21 positions, and our fire and police departments are running dangerously low on personnel. Our safety is seriously at risk.”

Both Schuette and Stickles freely conceded the difficulties of passing the levy lid in April, but they share the belief that the facts will persuade Arlington voters.

“Out of 19 cities in Snohomish County, Arlington is the lowest,” Schuette said. “Even with an increase of 50 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation,

we would only be 13th.”

On a more upbeat note, just as Stickles is excited about the networking opportunities that her new role will bring, so too is Schuette optimistic about Arlington’s business prospects.

“I look forward to speaking with other council members from other cities, and hearing about what works and doesn’t work for their cities and why,” Stickles said.

“We can bring back insights and ideas, so we don’t have to reinvent the wheel.

Relationship-building with other cities is always a smart thing to do anyway, since we have to work together on so many county projects.”

“I’m excited about being on the Council at a time when our aerospace industry

Jan Schuette

Jesica Stickles

is growing, when industries are expanding and hiring, because of what that means for our city and our citizens,” Schuette said. “I want to see more opportunities for job training and retraining. Attracting retail business, both downtown and

in Smokey Point, will be a challenge.”

Schuette and Stickles expressed their gratitude to the citizens of Arlington, whom they encouraged to contact them with any questions, comments or concerns they might have.

Carroll known for many things, including his hugs

GO HAWKS! “Kick Off 2014 With Our First Show of the Year” January 25th & 26th

Butcher Shop & Store • 360-629-3723

The Seattle Seahawks head coach can routinely be seen hugging and rejoicing with his players after a big play, whether it’s on offense, defense or special teams.

“When the head guy’s hugging you,” Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner said, “you did something right.”

While on the field for Seattle’s final two regularseason games — from warmups through postgame handshakes — Carroll dished out more than 70 hugs to players, coaches, staff, even the officials.

“All that energy that he brings every single game it’s kind of like another player out there on the field,” Wagner said. “It’s fun watching him if somebody gets a big play, him running around and being excited.

We feed off of that.”

The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe

HUGS FROM PAGE 14 Carroll tallied 27 on-field hugs in Seattle’s 17-10 loss to Arizona on Dec. 22. It was the Seahawks’ first home defeat in 15 games at CenturyLink Field. With the Seahawks’ offense production down, so was Carroll’s hug count.

The first hug out of the tunnel went to an Arizona player, the second to a microphone operator accompanying a TV cameraman (the mic operator clearly initiated the embrace) and the third to a Seahawks staffer. Hug No. 4 went to Paul Allen, after Carroll literally ran to the sideline to greet the Seahawks owner.

Apparently the guy who signs the checks get high hug priority.

Other notable hugs included “Interception” hugs for defensive backs Kam Chancellor and Richard Sherman, a “Let’s Walk and Talk” hug for line judge Mike Spanier, and Hug No. 13, a possible embrace with an assistant coach that may actually have been some kind of blocking drill. But there was definite arm motion and Carroll appeared to pull the coach in, so count it.

“The guys in here act

just like him. It’s crazy,” Chancellor said. “We need that type of energy. Doing the same thing over and over, every day, can get repetitive.

It can get boring. But to people who love football, like us in here, and a coach that loves football so much, it means a lot. It brings a spark to this program.”

Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson received the first of his game-high four Carroll hugs during a timeout on Seattle’s last possession of the first half.

Soon after, kicker Steven Hauschka missed just his second field-goal attempt of the season and looked like he could use a hug.

He didn’t get one.

The Seattle players say they enjoy getting hugs from their 62-year-old coach.

They know that if they make a big play, it’s likely Carroll will be waiting with open arms.

“The good news is Pete is going to shower you with praises whenever needed,” Seattle wide receiver Golden Tate said. “If you mess up, he’s going to quickly let you know you messed up, but he’s not going to curse you out.”

It’s no surprise that Carroll’s hug count rose significantly in Seattle’s next game, a 27-9, NFC West-

January 11, 2014

clinching victory over St. Louis in the regular-season finale. With the offense and defense posting strong outings, Carroll’s tallied 43 embraces.

Wilson again led the way with four, followed closely

by Sherman who got 3.5 — he shared a hug with fellow cornerback Byron Maxwell after a Maxwell interception. Sherman also got a hug after Tate’s fourth-quarter touchdown. The score ushered in a four-hug spree

by Carroll.

“It’s just having fun and enjoying the moment, really,” Carroll said. “That’s kind of what happens.”

Carroll said he’s always been an excitable coach, and the outpouring of hugs are a reflection of his enthusiasm.

“I’ve just been myself

... having fun with it and supporting guys,” Carroll said. “(I’m) trying to help them perform at their best.

Sometimes it’s praising them and all that kind of stuff. That’s just been the way I do it. Not really by intent, that’s just the way it happened.”

The first hug of the Rams game went to FOX television broadcaster Tim Ryan during pregame warmups.

After hugs to a Rams player and staff member, Sherman became the first Seahawk to get a hug on the field. A few fans got hugs, followed by

two important hugs — Nos. 8 and 9 — to the officials.

Soon after came a pair of “Coaches” hugs for offensive-line and assistant head coach Tom Cable, and offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell.

Hug No. 23 was an “Easy There Big Fella” hug to wide receiver Ricardo Lockette after a skirmish with the Rams — of which there were many in a chippy game.

Lockette got a second hug after another flag outbreak later in the game.

Tate earned his first hug after his 47-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter helped seal the win.

“I think his personality’s kind of rubbed on us and the way we play,” Tate said of Carroll. “I feel like he’s a very emotional coach and he likes to celebrate with us. That rubs off on us. We make big plays. We’re always looking to celebrate with our guys and have fun. We have a lot of fun out there. And so does Pete.”

The most intensive hugging came after the final

15

whistle sounded. Carroll hugged St. Louis head coach Jeff Fisher then unleashed a run of 12 “We’re NFC West Champions” hugs. Players, coaches and Seahawks staff members all got in on the action.

The screen at CenturyLink Field showed three more hugs in the tunnel on the way to the locker room, but those were not included in the official tally because they did not occur on the field.

“He genuinely cares about his players,” Sherman said of Carroll. “Obviously, the NFL is a big business and everybody understands that part of it. But within the business you can have respect and appreciation for your players and he has that and he shows it.”

The Seahawks clinched the NFC West title — and home-field advantage throughout the NFC playoffs — in front of an announced crowd of 68,264.

And most of those screaming fans no doubt would have loved to get a hug from Pete.

Arlington foregoes scheduled utility rate increase

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The rate increases that had been scheduled for the city of Arlington’s water, sewer and storm water utilities for 2014 were officially rescinded by the Arlington City Council’s unanimous vote on Monday, Jan. 6.

“Over the course of the past year, we’ve worked hard to secure more

state and federal grant funding,” city of Arlington Public Works Director Jim Kelly said. “We’ve also produced more of our own drinking water, drawing it from local wells, which has allowed us to purchase less water from outside sources. These measures have yielded cost savings that we’ve been able to pass on to our citizens and rate-payers.”

As such, neither the city’s residents nor its businesses will be see

any increases to the rates that they will be charged on these utilities in 2014. The Council had likewise rescinded the scheduled water rate increases in 2013, but allowed the automatic rate increases for sewer and storm water for that year.

Although Arlington Municipal Code calls for automatic rate increases for its water, sewer and storm water utilities each year, based on corresponding annual increases in

the Consumer Price Index for the Seattle-Tacoma-Bremerton metropolitan area, Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert agreed with Kelly’s recommendation that the city forego those rate increases this year, especially in light of the money saved last year through the efficient operations of the city’s waste water treatment plant.

Arlington’s residential utility customers currently pay a base $32.15

water rate, plus a metered rate for volumes of more than 300 cubic feet.

While both residents and businesses pay a $70.15 per month sewer rate, businesses also pay a volume rate of $7.25 per 100 cubic feet per month.

Sewer rates for the city’s industrial customers can range from $429 to $1,715, depending on how much and what types of waste they discharge, with rates varying depending on the weight and volume of that discharge.

Marysville Scouts collect 2,500 Christmas trees

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — An estimated 30 Boy Scouts, and as many adult volunteers, from five area troops came together to collect as many as 2,500 Christmas trees on Saturday, Jan. 4, which city of Marysville Parks and Recreation workers converted into mulch for Jennings Park.

Wanda McKinney, one of the committee members for Boy Scouts Troop 80, reported that each troop collected roughly 500 trees during the eight-hour collection window that Saturday, and judged the numbers of Scouts, adult volunteers and Christmas trees to be about the same as last year’s numbers.

“It always kind of fluctuates, but it’s held pretty steady,” McKinney said, before laughing, “That’s still a mind-boggling number of trees.”

This number doesn’t include the trees that were subsequently picked up by Scouts on Sunday, Jan. 5.

According to McKinney, the annual Christmas tree collection and recycling has alternated between Jennings Park and Strawberry Fields from year to year, so that both sites can benefit from the

mulch that city maintenance workers make out of the trees with their wood-chipper.

In addition to providing a resource for the city of Marysville, the annual Christmas tree collection and recycling also helps the Scouts fund their own programs.

“We drop off envelopes at each house in December, letting them know when we’ll be picking up trees,” McKinney said. “If they want to leave donations for us in those envelopes, we’ll take them, but we’ll pick up their trees no matter what.”

While McKinney didn’t have figures available for the other troops, she put

“We just want to thank everyone who did donate to support our local Boy Scouts.”

Troop 80’s donation total for this year at around $2,700, which will aid them in sustaining their monthly camping excursions throughout the year.

Albert Roy Ronning September 21, 1926 — October 10, 2013

A l was bor n i n Arlington, WA at the farm his parents homesteaded, on a road that still bears the family name. Al was one of 10 children born to Oliver and Olga Ronning.

Al passed peacefully at his home in Sunnyvale, CA. All nine siblings preceded him in death.

Al joined the U.S. Navy at the young age of 17. He then started his professional baseball career in 1947 as a 20 year old catcher for the Bremerton Washington Club, with stints in Victoria, Pueblo, Montreal, Fort Worth, Mobile and Spokane.

He was then drafted as a player in the Brooklyn Dodgers system in 1950.

On June 15, 1951, Al married Christina Kouyian at home plate in Pueblo CO and was widowed on January 7, 1970. With Al’s baseball credentials, the club quickly took advantage and hired him to coach in many levels of their farm system from

1959 to 1964. During this time, he received Pioneer League’s Manager of the Year award in 1961. The Kansas City and Oakland organizations also looked to Al for his coaching expertise before moving into scouting.

In 1973 he was named the Montreal Expos’ Scout of the Year.

In 1974 Albert married Beulah “Bea” Hubble who passed away in 2003. He joined the Major League Scouting Bureau in 1974 and served them until 2002, when he received the West Coast Scout of the Year award. Al enjoyed fishing and hunting in his younger days but baseball was his love and he was involved

with local area teams for over 50 years. Through his career he recruited many major league players and has either coached or played with many Major League coaches, assistants, and players concluding with his inclusion in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum Diamond Mines exhibit dedicated to scouts in Cooperstown, NY in May, 2013.

He was a passionate baseball player, manager and scout. He was a kind-hearted man and he will be missed by all who knew him, family and baseball buddies.

He is survived by three children; daughter Lani Deck, stepdaughter Nancy Newhart and stepson Mark Rigby. Two stepgrandsons Sean and Jason Cass and a host of nieces, nephews, a sister-in-law, Burnette Ronning, relatives and friends.

Service was held on Oct. 18th in Sunnyvale, CA.

Stacey King (Gleason) March 15, 1958 — January 4, 2014

Stacey King, 55, died at home on January 4, 2014 surrounded by family. She lost her battle with cancer she was first diagnosed and treated 30 years ago and it resurfaced in July 2013 just two weeks after her dad’s death. Stacey faced the last challenge with courage and dignity and without complaint.

Stacey was born March 15, 1958 at Everett General Hospital to parents Ken and Rose Gleason. Stacey was a member of the Marysville High School Class of 1976, though she graduated a year early in 1975 so she could begin attending Everett Community College. She would tell the story of her first job in high school at the Marysville Thunderbird Drive In Theater snack bar, where they had to pick moths out of previous nights leftover popcorn and reheat it for sale. Stacey was proud to be a Marysville native and that her family were early pioneers in the area.

She had fond memories of her childhood, especially the time spent at the family’s beach cabin on Whidbey Island.

While still in high school, Stacey began her career at her parents real estate firm North State Realty in Marysville. During this time

she received her real estate and broker’s license and honed her knowledge of real estate and finance. Because of her financial skills, her husband Tom would often kid her that she still had her third grade lunch money saved. After marriage, she worked at Cascade Bank in loan processing and collection. She worked at Cascade Bank for over 25 years taking a break to stay at home with her children when they were young.

Stacey married Tom King in 1981 and they enjoyed 33 years of marriage.

Shortly after getting married they designed and built their home on Sunnyside Boulevard where they raised their family and she resided at the time of her death. She is survived by her three children, Tony, Chris, and Michelle. Their youngest child was born with a disability, which was a challenge but one that Stacey met head on providing her with loving care and support. Stacey

and Tom were both active in their children’s lives. Stacey received several awards for her efforts, including the PTA Golden Acorn.

A lifelong lover of animals, Stacey developed a new passion in 2003 when she began fostering and adopting kittens for Purrfect Pals, a no-kill cat shelter in Arlington. During her decade as a volunteer for Purrfect Pals she fostered over one thousand kittens and helped supervise adoption events at different pet stores in Snohomish County. Despite battling cancer, she kept fostering kittens and attending adoption events until shortly before her passing.

In addition to her husband and three children, she is also survived by her sister Laurie Snyder and brother Kelly Gleason and two nephews and one niece.

She was preceded in death by her sister Linda Phelps and parents Ken and Rose Gleason.

Per her request there will be no service. Her family will hold a private gathering in the spring celebrating her life.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Purrfect Pals, 230 McRae Road NE, Arlington, WA 98223.

Meet Cheesecake! He's very friendly and playful and loves to be with people!

Cheesecake has had a bit of a rough go, he was left outside the shelter early in the cold morning, we brought him inside to a nice warm bed to sleep in. He got adopted, but was brought back right away because the adopter was severely allergic. Poor, lovable Cheesecake just needs to find a nice, loving home! Is that with you?

Arlington Scouts collect 600 trees, $1,200

borhoods during the two December weekends leading up to the first Saturday in January.

“That number of trees is pretty close to what we’ve had before,” Rengen said of the annual collection drive.

“Probably because they have the highest concentration of houses, it seems like more

trees came from Gleneagle than from the other neighborhoods.”

Rengen noted that Arlington residents were given the option to include financial donations to the Scouts in their envelopes, but added that the Scouts picked up everyone’s Christmas trees regardless.

“We’ve probably collected $1,200-plus so far,” Rengen said. “Because we gave them self-addressed envelopes, some of them rubber-banded their envelopes to their

ARLINGTON — More than 600 Christmas trees were collected by 16 Boy Scouts and 12 adult volunteers from Troop 29 on Saturday, Jan. 4, at the city of Arlington parking lot just north of Legion Park.

Calvin Rengen, the committee chair for Troop 29, credited the relatively steady yield of trees this year, when compared to last year, to a December awareness blitz that included the distribution of promotional fliers and as many as 3,000 donation collection envelopes throughout Arlington neigh-

trees, while others chose to mail in their envelopes later.

We’re still getting envelopes.

Steve Peterson has an artificial Christmas tree, but because he’s a former Scout, he gave us some money anyway.”

Fellow former Scout Allen Wesson, an alum of Troop 29, donated the wood-chipper for the day, after the Scouts’ first chipper conked out.

“The money we receive for collecting and recycling these trees helps us pay for everything from merit

badge patches and awards banquets to camping equipment,” Rengen said. “We have to maintain our canoes and life vests, and park fees for a group spot can run as high as a couple of hundred bucks for a single weekend.”

Rengen expressed his appreciation to both the community for participating and the city of Arlington for donating the use of its municipal parking lot for the day, and explained that the Scouts’ parents would find uses for the mulch.

Section of 67th Ave. reduced to one lane Jan. 13-20

Book sale returns Jan. 14-15 ARLINGTON — If you missed the Friends of the Arlington Library’s book sales in 2013, don’t worry, because they’ll be back in 2014, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Jan. 14, and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Jan. 15.

“We’re here in the lobby of the library on the second Tuesday and Wednesday of each month, and we make about $200 from each lobby book sale,” said Eileen Ray, vice president of the Friends of the Arlington Library. “We also get at least one new member every month from the book sales.”

The Friends of the Arlington Library have furnished the library with a copy machine, a PC with a flash drive, and a number of recovered furniture items.

Ray encouraged those who might be interested in joining the group to attend one of its meetings, on the second Wednesday of every month at 3:30 p.m. in the library.

Donations of clean used books can be left at the Arlington Library, in bags marked “FAL.”

ARLINGTON — From Monday, Jan. 13, through Monday, Jan. 20, a section of 67th Avenue NE, between 211th Place NE and Lebanon Street, will be temporarily reduced to one lane, with alternating two-way traffic, in order to provide a safe work zone.

Crews are scheduled to conduct work in this very narrow section of the corridor to install a curb on the east side of the roadway.

Traffic controls will be in place to safely direct motorists through the construction zone, including flaggers on weekdays from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and automated traffic signals in place overnight and on the weekend.

Once construction in this area is complete, this section of the roadway will be opened up to two lanes.

This schedule is subject to change due to the weather.

Work throughout the 67th Avenue Final Phase project corridor is expected to occur during typical work hours, Mondays through Fridays, from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., with no night or weekend work expected.

Please stay alert and drive slowly through the construction area.
