MARYSVILLE — The School House Cafe at Totem Middle School has undergone a few changes this year, as former Seattle chef Jeff Delma makes his way through his seventh year of coordinating the student cooks in the kitchen.

“We’ve got a new paint job and a new look, but we’re not done touching it up just yet,” said Delma, who credited Brian Murrill as one of the key contributors to the student-run restaurant’s mid-school year

renovations.

“It’s made the School House Cafe a nicer place to eat at,” said Ariel Williams, a senior at MarysvillePilchuck High School, who hopes to pursue cooking as a career.

“It has been looking a little worn down,” said Natalie Vinson, a senior at the Marysville Getchell High School Bio-Med Academy, who also comes from a family of cooks, but is more interested in cooking as a hobby.

“We already offer gourmet food from high school SEE CAFE, PAGE 2

Parents question how district handles special needs students

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — A group of Marysville parents testified before the Marysville School District Board of Directors on Tuesday, Feb. 18, to express their concerns with how the district has handled its special needs students, and in at least two cases to make fresh claims of staff mistreatment of students.

A number of Kellogg

Marsh Elementary parents, including Melody Plumb and Megan Harp, worried about their children’s consolidation into other classes last fall.

“Since David’s class was closed in October, I’ve been seeing more changes in behavior in him, that aren’t positive,” Plumb said.

“I’ve been seeing negative changes as well,” Harp said.

“There’s been a lot of staff turnover. We’ve had four dif-

ferent classroom staff in five days, and none of them have had special education training. These kids don’t adapt well to change. This year has been lacking in development for them, educationally and socially. Their academics have gone by the wayside, and I’m seeing more and more behavioral and social issues. We don’t have enough para-educators in the classSEE STUDENTS, PAGE 24

CAFE FROM PAGE 1 students,” said fellow BioMed Academy senior Ian Wahlgren, who enrolled in the program because “I want to learn how to cook so I can live on my own.”

Regular patrons will also notice a new menu at the School House Cafe, complete with its own blend of coffee. Vista Clara Coffee of Snohomish has created the “Caffe’ Diem” blend for the local studentrun restaurant, offering what Delma described as a “deep, dark and beautiful” flavor. Likewise, while familiar favorites such as the house-smoked barbecue pulled-pork sandwich, paninis, and fish and chips are still available, they’ve been joined this year by new selections such as the spicy shrimp wrap, which bundles crispy shrimp, lettuce, tomato and spicy mayo in a flour tortilla.

While Wahlgren rates the spicy shrimp wrap as his own first choice to order, Williams is more partial to shepherd’s pie, and Vinson prefers the simplicity of the

School House Cafe’s salads.

“I would come here on my own time even if I wasn’t working here, because the food is just that good,” Vinson said.

“Plus, the people are as friendly as they can be,” Williams said. “We’ve all made new friends here.”

Indeed, even though many students go to different schools, or different Small Learning Communities, they all agreed that their close-knit working relationships at the School House Cafe remind them that they’re all part of the same Marysville school community.

“It doesn’t feel like coming to class when you come here,” Wahlgren said.

Which is not to say that culinary education isn’t emphasized during students’ hands-on experiences at the School House Cafe, since Delma has also been throwing middle school students into the mix.

“They’re only here for relatively short periods, but it gives them a taste of what it’s like, and increases their awareness,” Delma said.

“We don’t want incoming

high school freshmen to get lost in the shuffle.”

The School House Cafe has even started incorporating a new culinary curriculum from ProStart into its lessons, by focusing on industry specificskills training, and working with the Washington Restaurant Association and the National Restaurant Association.

“This connection offers our program a direct pipeline to hundreds of professionals, who are available for mentor relationships, career and education advice, as well as professional, hands-on guest instruction,” said Donneta Spath, the Marysville School District’s Career and Technical Education Director. “This partnership will also allow Chef Delma to share ideas, information and teaching strategies with hundreds of schools across the country, via online forums and databases.”

As valuable as these programs and benefits are to the students and the community overall, perhaps the most important aspect of the School House Cafe

“I used to come here all the time,” said Betty Berger, whose workplace was previously located adjacent to the School House Cafe.

“They were so very nice to me. When I had a leg injury, they even brought my meals to me. It’s been years since I came here regularly, but with as good as the food is, I’ll be bringing my girlfriends back with me tomorrow.”

TBD Board meets Feb. 24

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The city of Marysville will be conducting its next meeting of the Transportation Benefit District’s Board on Monday, Feb. 24, during which the Board is set to hash out its bylaws and procedures, in addition to weighing which projects it might decide to take on, with the support of voters.

City of Marysville Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen explained that the TBD Board’s previous meeting had established that it operates under a separate budget and financing system from the city itself, and promised that the voters would be asked to approve or deny a sales tax increase

of 0.2 percent on the April 22 ballot, in order to fund transportation improvements.

“That would basically amount to 20 cents from every $100 that you spend,” Nielsen said. “As time has gone on, Washington state’s transportation revenues have steadily declined, so it’s hard to keep our infrastructure at the level that our citizens would like to see.

The city has to maintain the pavement of its streets, so that there are less potholes and bumpy roads.”

This would raise the sales tax rate in Marysville from 8.6 percent to 8.8 percent.

Marysville’s tax rate would remain lower than most cities in Snohomish County, which range from 7.7 per-

cent to 9.6 percent.

Washington state has allowed its cities to use Transportation Benefit Districts as a means of shoring up their transportation funds, by allowing the cities to ask voters to approve sales taxes to fund those transportation projects.

“That way, it’s up to the citizens themselves,” Nielsen said. “And whatever sales taxes they approve stay within their own cities. If voters give us the go-ahead, the revenues we collect from them will not go to the county, but will go to benefit Marysville’s roads directly.”

These sales taxes would be paid not just by Marysville residents, but by everyone who shops in Marysville,

38th District legislators plan Feb. 22 coffee

“If voters give us the go-ahead, the revenues we collect from them will not go to the county, but will go to benefit Marysville’s roads directly.”

Marysville, Tulalip and Everett citizens should mark their calendars for a “Coffee Hour and a Half ” conversation on Saturday, Feb. 22, with state representatives Mike Sells and June Robinson. The two lawmakers are hosting the meeting from 10-11:30 a.m. at the Marysville Library, located at 6120 Grove St. in Marysville.

Sells and Robinson represent the 38th Legislative District in the Washington State Legislature.

The Legislature is just north of halfway through the 2014 legislative session.

Sells and Robinson want to meet with citizens to review

Kevin Nielsen, Marysville Public Works director and uses its streets and services. The ballot measure is projected to generate about $1.6 million per year in revenue, and expire in 10 years.

While this is the ultimate goal, Nielsen hastened to add that the TBD Board is at “the beginning of the beginning” of its process.

Boys & Girls Club affects kids in positive way

y story isn’t groundbreaking. My story is better than average, and let me tell you, better than average isn’t bad.

Growing up, my parents worked hard at a small printing plant next to the Arlington Airport. Last year, I bought that print shop from my parents and have turned it into more than just printing to include graphic design, web site design and have pioneered a first-of-its-kind process of putting images into powder coating. Pretty cool stuff indeed.

About the same time last year, something funny happened to me. I had a baby. Okay, so it wasn’t me who had the baby, it was my beautiful wife. As I write this, our baby girl sits (suspiciously quiet) in her swinging chair, and looks up at me and smiles every once in a while.

I don’t need the smile to reconfirm that what I’m doing to help the Boys & Girls Club is the right thing, but it’s sure a good reminder.

How does a print/design shop, an airport location and a newborn relate to the Boys & Girls Club? Let me tell you. I was just a kid when my parents ran the print/design shop, and they were

Guest OpiniOn JOHN PEETERS busy trying to make a living.

Where did I go to spend afternoons that was safe and had fun activities? The (new at the time) Arlington Boys & Girls Club.

Where is the Arlington Boys & Girls Club currently located?

Near the Arlington Airport, after beginning on Olympic Avenue in 1974. In a few years, where will my daughter spend some of her afternoons? The same place I did, the Arlington Boys & Girls Club.

As a member of the Rotary Club of Arlington, I agreed to co-chair the Arlington Boys & Girls Club Expansion Committee, more specifically as the Arlington Rotary Club liaison. When the current building was being planned and opened in 1992, Arlington Rotary played an integral part in funding, and to help find funding from other community members. With my personal involvement as a Boys & Girls Club member and Rotary’s history with the club, I

knew this was the perfect project for me and my time. If I was going to spend time away from my family, especially with my new smiling addition, this was where it was going to be.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Arlington Boys & Girls Club. To give you a perspective, in 1974 the city’s population was 2,000 residents.

Today, the club alone has almost 2,000 school-age members.

The current club simply needs more space to take care of our kids during out-of-school time.

More space not only for sports, but for all the everyday activities that bring kids to the club.

The basic plan for the Boys & Girls Club is to double the size. We need another gym, a computer lab, teen center, more parking and a larger multi-purpose space.

Today, the club serves both Arlington and Lakewood schools, offers shuttles to pick up and drop off kids both before and after school, all the while providing a positive, safe atmosphere for up to 400 kids per day. During basketball season this mushrooms to almost 600 kids per day, and there’s no room for non-sport activity. In addition, the club rents eight

school gyms in both Arlington and Lakewood from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. so the club’s teams have places to practice. The computer lab is needed for homework help, and the teen center is needed for the separation of the younger and older kids, which increases the overall attendance of both.

Parking is needed as well.

If you’ve ever driven by on a Saturday during fall, winter or spring, you won’t find a parking spot literally within a half-mile in either direction, because of soccer, baseball, basketball and volleyball games and practices for our kids. It seems everyone in town is at the club to watch their kids, grandkids, nephews, nieces or neighbors play.

This project is, no doubt, a good cause, and what makes this a great cause is that we can actually measure the results. We will expand on those measurements in a future article.

In closing, I am involved because the Boys & Girls Club affects kids in a positive way. It did for me, it did for many of you who are club alumni, it will for my daughter, and it will for your family. The effect lasts a lifetime and travels from generation to generation.

Metal tree sculpture accepted by Arlington

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

Travis Petrie, a Marysville-Pilchuck High School Class of 2005 graduate, creates wooden sculptures, illustrating quotes from pop culture figures.

Marysville woodworking artist showcased in Seattle MARYSVILLE — A Marysville-Pilchuck High School Class of 2005 graduate is receiving a broader spotlight for his unique wood sculpture artwork in Seattle.

Travis Petrie credits both his father Ted, and Mike Fitzpatrick, his former shop teacher at Marysville Junior High School, with fostering the woodworking skills that have been able to blossom within the past couple of years, thanks to some inherited woodworking tools, but it was Travis’ younger brother Cody who first inspired the series that Travis has come to call his “quote busts.”

“Cody wanted a tattoo of a quote by John Lennon for his 18th birthday, but he didn’t just want it be words,” Travis Petrie said. “So I made a design of Lennon’s face that incorporated the quote into the visual image.”

Look closely at Petrie’s head-and-shoulders busts of pop culture figures, ranging from civil rights leaders to influential musicians, and you’ll see words hidden in the lines of their heads and faces.

“I’ve done everything from Pokemon to Jesus,” said Petrie, whose roughly 30 pieces to date began as small 6-inch pieces made out of recycled material, and have since expanded into sturdy wooden pieces as tall as 4 feet.

“Most of my first pieces were for family members.”

A number of Petrie’s quote busts are currently displayed at the Have a Heart medical marijuana dispensary in Seattle, with whom he became involved out of respect for their work on behalf of the community.

“They’re donated a lot to families suffering from medical ailments, and they’re really into supporting area artists,” said Travis Petrie, who’s also mapping out his options for having his work displayed in

“I love the tree and have promoted its acceptance from the beginning,” said Oertle, who also singled

out Arlington Arts Council Treasurer Jean Olson for her role in making this project possible. “Once I get behind a project, I do my best to make it happen.”

Arney hopes to see the tree bolted down to its concrete pad by this summer, perhaps even in time for Arbor Day.

“I’m just astonished by what he’s achieved,” Ted Petrie said of his son. “I’ve seen his skills advance, as he’s become more fluent in rendering facial architecture.

The eyes of his pieces are like the Mona Lisa; they’ll follow you around the room. He’s a social activist who’s doing something he’s passionate about.”

“You should take pride in what you do, because everything matters,” said Travis Petrie, who cited his 19-month-old daughter Hazel Moon as another inspiration for his work. “Everything.”

ARLINGTON — A new monument of metal twisted into an organic form will mark the culmination of more than two years of discussions and fundraising.

On Tuesday, Feb. 18, the Arlington City Council officially accepted the Arlington Arts Council’s gift of a metal tree sculpture by artist Debbi Rhodes, which will be placed at the Centennial Trail, between Third and Fourth streets, when it’s complete.

Rhodes explained that the tree will be constructed of Cor-Ten steel, and will include both stainless steel and powder-coated orange “leaves.”

“The roots are actually going to be a sort of mirror image of the branches on the final product,” Rhodes said.

“I changed the scope of the piece to give it a more cohesive statement, so I hope the viewer will feel the ‘Rooted Embrace’ that the title implies.”

Both Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney and Arts Council member Marilyn Oertle, also a member of the Arlington City Council, recalled Rhodes’s presentation to the Arts Council early in 2012, during which she brought a miniature model of her tree sculpture.

“Everyone was very enamored of the tree,” Oertle said.

“The discussion led to entering it into the ‘People’s Choice’ selection at our annual art auction. It won first place two years running.”

“Arts Council members persistently brought it up as a future project, but at the time, we were committed to

finishing the Sound Garden and the city entryway signs,” Arney said. “And as a result of our ‘Fall into Art’ auction, and our concerts at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center, we now have the money — $12,000, not including installation — to commission the full-sized 12-foot-by-14-foot sculpture.”

“That location on Centennial Trail cries out for something spectacular,” said Oertle, who added that the project was approved not only by the Arlington Arts Council, but also the Public Art Commission and the Parks, Arts and Recreation Committee. “Arlington is recognized as a ‘Tree City USA,’ so it seemed perfect.”

Rhodes admitted that she hadn’t even considered that angle when she first proposed the sculpture.

“Trees are very iconic, and Washington is known for its evergreens rather than its deciduous trees, so I thought it was a nice statement,” Rhodes said.

Rhodes expects the labor to create the tree will take her about 50 hours.

Hots serves as chief of District 21, 22

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Travis Hots, who already serves as fire chief for Snohomish County Fire District 22 in the Getchell area, has also stepped up to serve as fire

chief of Snohomish County Fire District 21 in the rural Arlington area.

Hots was hired after the Arlington Rural Fire District 21 Board of Commissioners chose not to renew Rick Isler’s contract as chief, but Hots will not be seeing an

increase in his salary of $110,000 a year.

“That was my choice, to show that the consolidation of the Arlington Rural and Getchell fire districts can work,” Hots said, noting that the two fire districts are now splitting the costs of his

“We’ll see what jobs can be reassigned to spread the work around.”

Chief Travis Hots Fire District 21, 22 “Ever since I was a young kid, I knew I was going to be working in the fire service,” Hots said. “It wasn’t until I was 19 or 20 that I realized that I could make a full-time career out of it, though.”

Even after 15 years of full-time service in the field, Hots is still eager to go to work every morning, although he acknowledged that the significant amount of time spent away from his family has been taxing.

With a resume that includes stints on the Marysville Fire District, the Lake Stevens Fire Department and Snohomish County Technical Rescue, as well as his role as vice president of the Snohomish County Fire Chiefs Association, Hots believes he has the knowhow to help consolidate costs between the Arlington Rural and Getchell fire districts.

Chief Travis Hots “We’ll see what jobs can be reassigned to spread the work around,” said Hots, who compared this to his other role, as the Snohomish County Fire Resource Coordinator. “When a large fire overwhelms the resources of one geographical area, we provide assistance from around the state. I muster up local personnel to assemble them on specialty and strike teams.”

Hots praised the hard work of the firefighters in both fire districts, adding that all but one of the Arlington Rural Fire District personnel are volunteers.

“They’re enthusiastic whether they called out at 3 in the morning or 3 in the afternoon,” Hots said. “We all care about the people in our communities, and will strive to provide enhanced levels of service.”

salary and benefits, which had previously been paid

by Getchell Fire District 22.

“We’ve all redistributed our duties a bit, so we’re all doing a little more than we were before. Everybody has to do a little with a lot during lean times, and our area fire service has yet to recover from the reductions in assessed property valuations. We’re not even close to being back to where we were before.”

While Hots pointed out that he’s still relatively new to his second fire captaincy, he’s currently reviewing procedures and familiarizing himself with personnel, with an eye toward ultimately improving both fire districts’ operations.

“I’m still in the evaluation stage right now,” Hots said.

“But as I go through all the files and meet all the people at the Arlington Rural Fire District, I’ll be developing priorities for making changes.”

Hots comes to his new role with a wealth of experience, having served 20 years in the fire service and four years in search and rescue, in addition to his father’s multi-decade stint in the fire service.

“The Club has grown to become a second home. So many memories are held there and affiliated with the Club that it seems to be almost a symbol of my childhood.”

MARYSVILLE — Sunnyside Elementary is among 46 Western Washington schools to benefit from BECU’s 13th annual awarding of more than $100,000 in community grants to support education projects that help promote student excellence.

Sunnyside Elementary librarian Nancy Bono explained that BECU’s award of $2,389.20 to her school will be used to purchase eight Chromebook laptops to supplement the seven existing desktop computers in the library, most of which are about a decade old.

“We’re teaching about 300 students in the third, fourth and fifth grades how to develop the technological skills to research the answers to questions, and to find information that’s accurate and reliable, through the use of digital media,” Bono said.

From there, students are tasked with presenting that information clearly and concisely through applications such as Word and PowerPoint.

“We want them to use critical thinking and problem-solving skills to evaluate information from the Internet,” Bono said. “We’re also making sure they learn how to use that information in an ethical way, by citing their sources in a proper manner, and not plagiarizing.”

It’s increasingly difficult for students to meet those needs with the current crop of computers at Sunnyside, especially since one of the desktop machines’ monitors just went out on Wednesday, Feb. 19.

In the meantime, Sunnyside fourth-graders such as Serenity Turner, Coby Kolling and Philip Reed have been working at researching and presenting information on the Oregon Trail.

“It’s been hard to try and find the right information to put into our presentations,” Kolling said.

Still, all three students have been pleasantly surprised by how much they’re enjoyed the project, with Reed appreciating the teamwork behind it, while Turner welcomed learning more about subjects such as Fort Kearney.

“I thought this would be boring, but it’s been kind of fun,” Turner said.

Detectives seek witnesses to Arlington car crash ARLINGTON — Detectives with the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office are looking to speak with anyone who may have witnessed a vehicle collision that left an 18-year-old Stanwood woman, a passenger in the vehicle, dead at the scene on Sunday, Feb. 16.

The incident occurred around 11:30 a.m. that day, when a black Lexus traveling at a high rate of speed

on 240th Street NE left the roadway between 123rd and 131st avenues. The 19-yearold driver and an 18-year-old male passenger, both from Arlington, sustained minor injuries.

Detectives are interested in speaking to one witness in particular — a white male believed to be in his 50s or 60s, with gray hair, wearing a gray sweatshirt, walking eastbound

on 240th Street NE at the time of the accident. Anyone else with information about the incident is asked to call the Sheriff ’s Office Anonymous Tip Line at 425-388-3845.

The release of the name of the female victim is pending from the Snohomish County Medical Examiner. The crash remains under investigation by the Sheriff ’s Office Collision Investigation Unit.

A vehicle collision on 240th Street NE left one passenger dead on Feb. 16.

Soroptimists donate to Kloz 4 Kids

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Members of the Marysville Chapter of Soroptimist International recently presented a check for $1,500 to the Marysville-based Kloz 4 Kidz.

Kloz 4 Kidz provides free clothing to schoolage children in need in the Marysville area, and donations of new or gently used clothing are always appreciated.

“I feel strongly about Kloz 4 Kidz because it’s a grassroots program started by a visionary group of women who recognized the need for all school-age children to have acceptable clothing for school,” Marysville Soroptimist Co-President Teresa Trivett said. “They’ve worked tirelessly to bring their vision to reality. Kloz 4 Kidz has been a huge success, and has clothed literally thousands of children in the greater Marysville community.”

The Soroptimists’ donation will be used by Kloz 4 Kidz to purchase items such as new socks and underwear, since those items can’t be accepted used, while shoes can be donated used.

Kloz 4 Kidz Director Lynn Brittingham expressed her gratitude to the Marysville Chapter of Soroptimist International for helping them provide clothing to children in need.

According to Brittingham, shoes are one

of the least donated, most in-demand items at Kloz 4 Kidz, whose volunteers diligently clean used shoes, and all other used items of donated clothing, before placing them on their shelves and racks.

“We wash and mend everything,” Brittingham said. “We will not put out clothes that are missing a zipper or a button. If we

wouldn’t hand it out to our own kids, we won’t give it to the families who come to us.”

The Kloz 4 Kidz volunteers’ responsiveness to their client families’ needs is why their informational pamphlets and website are available in both English and Spanish, and why they take care that at least one volunteer is available to

escort each child through their selection of clothing items, even when families have multiple children.

“Nobody here is paid,” Brittingham said. “We pay for a phone line and that’s pretty much it. We depend on donations and grants to exist.”

For more information on Kloz 4 Kidz, log onto www. kloz4kidz.org.

Lady Tomahawks advance in playoffs

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@marysvilleglobe.com

M-P’s Halie Romo looks to make a pass.

MARYSVILLE — The MarysvillePilchuck girls basketball team defeated Meadowdale, 51-14, in a 3A District Tournament game on Feb. 19.

M-P lost its first meet-up with Meadowdale in the regular season, 47-39, on Jan. 10.

It turned out to be a one-sided night as the two teams met up again on Feb. 19, with M-P only allowing Meadowdale to score seven points total in the first half.

The Lady Tomahawks executed well on both sides of the ball. “They played really well tonight. They are not ready to quit or give up,” M-P head coach Julie Martin said. “They’re working together really well.”

Martin said it was sharing the ball and selflessness that carried the game.

“Everyone contributes in some way on our team, for sure,” Martin said.

“We’re just taking one game at a time.”

On offense, senior guards Jenika Anglim and Amanda Klep were the main scorers of the night.

Anglim scored 22 points in the game, and said the help of her team was crucial to her performance. “I just feel very supported from my team and that we’re all wanting it for

each other,” she said. “It feels good that they’re backing me up. I’m happy we won.”

Anglim hoped the hard work her team has done will show in their next playoff game against Ferndale on Feb. 22.

Klep was second in scoring to Anglim, hitting for 12. Anglim and Klep scored two 3-pointers apiece.

The first quarter started with Meadowdale scoring first. M-P responded swiftly, with senior forward junior Jordan Bengen tying it 2-2.

A Tomahawk run soon followed, starting with Anglim making a goal and Klep hitting a three. Klep scored seven points in the first quarter and Anglim scored four.

M-P’s defense also took form, causing turnovers and rebounding missed opportunities from Meadowdale.

Senior forward Charlee Pilon used her height and wingspan to secure offensive and defensive rebounds.

Pilon was a little cold in the first half in scoring, but ended up with 10 points at the end of the game.

M-P led at the end of the first quarter 15-5.

In the second quarter, the Tomahawks outscored Meadowdale, extending their lead. It was Anglim

who lead the second quarter on points, scoring eight points, including a 3-pointer. M-P displayed excellent passing and a defense that held Meadowdale to only two points.

Klep was able to get a 3-pointer in as well, along with a goal, hitting five points in the second quarter.

By halftime, the Tomahawks led the game 32-7.

In the third quarter, Anglim started M-P’s scoring with a three. Both teams contested in scoring with Meadowdale improving, scoring 11 points.

Meadowdale’s third quarter scoring effort proved inconsequential. M-P was already far in the lead at halftime, and outscored Meadowdale by one more point in the third quarter.

M-P was ahead 44-18 as the third quarter ended.

With M-P far in the lead, Martin saw the opportunity to allow the younger Tomahawks some play time in the fourth quarter. The less experienced Lady Tommies put together seven points in the fourth quarter to Meadowdale’s six, capping off M-P’s crucial playoff win.

M-P will play Ferndale for third place at the 3A District Tournament on Feb. 22. The winner will go to Regionals and the loser will be out.

M-P, MG swimmers place at District

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Marysville-Pilchuck and Marysville Getchell swim teams had swimmers make the State Meet during the 3A District Finals at M-PHS on Feb. 15.

Out of the 10 teams that competed, MG placed fifth and M-P placed ninth overall.

“Overall, our athletes qualify for great progress over the course of the season,” MG and M-P head coach Meredith Jenks said. “We started the season with a lot of brand new guys who hadn’t swum before, and we ended the season with the majority of both teams participating in the District Championships.”

The day before the District Finals, M-P had seven swimmers who qualified during the preliminaries and MG had 11. “On Feb. 14 at preliminaries, we had 26 of the best times out of 30 swims,” she said. “The top 18 from prelims then moved on to Saturday’s finals, where we had 19 more best times out of 25 swims.”

The top four swimmers from MG during the finals were freshman Nathaniel Ludwig, freshman John Snider, senior Taylor Dalton and sophomore Connor Demarco.

“Our swimmers are focusing on their freestyle, specifically on the turns and finishes, in order to put together a great relay,” Jenks said. “Connor is using the same focus points to help his 100 freestyle. We are focusing on

making it to Saturday’s State Meet.”

Ludwig, Snider, Dalton and Demarco took third in the 200 Freestyle Relay, and fifth in the 200 Medley Relay.

“Our MG 200 Freestyle relay qualified for state and so did Connor in the 100 Freestyle,” Jenks said.

MG had highlights in the dives as well.

Sophomore Luis Pineda took third, sophomore Dukleth took fourth and junior Matthias McFarlane took sixth. “Luis and Tyler qualified for State,” Jenks said. “Our divers are working to improve their dives in order to make it through the first round of preliminaries.”

With how well the both schools have performed in the District Finals, Jenks is more then pleased with the swimmers’ overall progress.

On top of the progress achieved by the young swimmers, Jenks said the team cohesion between the two high schools throughout the season has been phenomenal.

“They work hard together and play hard together. M-P supports MG, and MG supports M-P,” Jenks said. “The level of encouragement these athletes give each other, across schools, across grade-levels and across ability level, is outstanding.”

The swimmers who qualified moved onto the State Meet at King County Aquatics Center in Federal Way, which began on Feb. 21 and continues on Feb. 22.

Tommies hang on to beat Ferndale

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck boys basketball team progressed in the Wesco 3A playoffs when they topped Ferndale, 60-58, on Feb. 19.

“It was a real close game,” M-P head coach Bary Gould said. “We had the upper hand early, but in the second quarter they edged it out.”

The boys basketball team came back with a win after an earlier setback when they lost to Shorecrest, 55-51, on Feb. 14.

With their win over Ferndale, the Tomahawks advanced to battle for the third place spot on Feb. 21 against Mountlake Terrace.

Results were not available by press time.

M-P defeated Ferndale earlier in the season, 76-63, on Dec. 28, but Ferndale proved to be a much more challenging team the second time around.

The Tomahawks led the first quarter, but Ferndale proved to be a worthy contender in the following quarters, especially in the fourth.

“They surged and ended up taking the lead with a minute to go,” Gould said.

The Tomahawks tried

to tie the game by aiming for 3-pointers. M-P missed a couple, but were able to rebound before junior guard Cole Grinde landed one tying the game.

Junior Wing Michael Painter scored a lay up with 10 seconds left in the game.

Ferndale ran out of time and was unable to answer, handing the victory to M-P. M-P’s top scorer was Painter, who hit for 20 points in the game. “Painter was solid,” Gould said. “We hit some good shots.”

Senior pointguard Dante Fields was the second highest scorer with 12 points.

Fields also stood out on defense, in which he blocked players taller then him and took charges as well. “Dante continues to get better and better,” Gould said. “He had some good blocks.”

Gould attributed M-P’s victory to overall teamwork on offense and defense. “We were making shots when we needed to,” Gould said.

Sharing the ball also assisted M-P’s game, especially by sophomore forward Bryce Juneau. “Juneau finds guys when they are open,” Gould said.

The first quarter started in favor of M-P. The Tomahawks led Ferndale

18-7 at the end of the first quarter.

Though M-P got off to a strong start, Ferndale was still dangerous. In the second quarter, Ferndale rallied to catch up with M-P. Ferndale was right behind M-P, 31-30, at halftime.

After halftime, M-P was

able to stifle Ferndale’s rally by creating a 10-point lead at the end of the third quarter. M-P was back in the lead, 52-40, at the end of the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, M-P had to hold off another rally by Ferndale to seal the win. Ferndale warmed up

again, and was able to score 18 points to M-P’s eight.

Ferndale held a brief lead over M-P, but the Tomahawks’ three-point goal and layup in the last seconds of the game robbed them of a win.

M-P faced Mountlake Terrace on Feb. 21. Gould

hoped for the best against the No. 2 Ranked school in 3A South, a team that had bested M-P earlier in the season. The winner of that game moves on to Regionals.

“We’re definitely going to have to show up and compete against them,” Gould said.

Cougar grapplers advance

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood High School wrestling found itself peaking at the right time of the season, when four girls and five boys advanced to the State Tournament during the 2A District meet at Squalicum High School on Feb. 15.

It was a great night for the girls.

“We took five girls to Regionals, and four made it to State,” Lakewood head coach Tom O’Hara said. “We had a really good weekend. They wrestled fantastically.”

The four girls that are going to State are sophomores Makayla Jackson, Tommie Mosteller and Alexis Perry, and junior Katie Kortekaas.

Kortekaas faced a tough bracket but finished fourth.

Perry stood out when she went in as the fourth seed and defeated an opponent from the No. 1 seed

from the Northwest.

In the boys, five wrestlers qualified for the Mat Classic in Tacoma. Senior Tristan Nelson took first place in the 285-pound weight class.

Other wrestlers who qualified were junior Gage Gilbertson and senior Drake Mosteller, who placed third in their respective weight classes.

Jeff Harrison made it to the 182-pound championship match, but lost to SedroWoolley’s junior Quinten Roppel, 13-17. Senior Deven Jackson qualified for State when he placed fourth in the 285-pound weight class.

With the Cougars headed to the Mat Classic, O’Hara said, “Everything is washed away at State. We hope to bring home some medals.”

O’Hara said he told his wrestlers he did not focus on the wins and losses of the season, but rather on the performances at State.

Red Curtain holds fundraiser

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

Marysville Police Lt. Mark Thomas, left, gets a lay of the land of the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts’ proposed renovations to the Dunn Lumber building from project manager Doug Walter on Feb. 19.

MARYSVILLE — The community got a chance to check out the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts’ plans for the former Dunn Lumber building on Grove Street, during a fundraiser luncheon on Tuesday, Feb. 18, that included models of the prospective renovations to the very same building where they were enjoying their catered meal.

Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring delivered an extended-length opening speech in which he recalled the city being approached by the Marysville Arts Coalition three years ago

to bring more art into the Marysville community. He described their efforts as a true grassroots campaign, driven by citizens rather than the city, and cited the Art Walk and the seasonal displays of wooden wreaths and umbrellas around town as “early victories” that helped to spark further interest in an art scene in Marysville.

“There’s not a lot of opportunities for performing arts in Marysville,” Nehring said. “A lot of times, we have to go to other communities to see them, whether it’s Everett or Arlington. And as mayor, any time there’s an activity that people want to go

to that’s out of town, I ask myself how we can bring that into town, but the fact of the matter is that we simply don’t have suitable venues for them. We don’t even really have room enough for large meetings.”

Nehring pointed out that it would be too prohibitive — in terms of time, cost and staffing — for the city to take charge of something like a local arts center, but he’s more than happy to help drum up support for a community-based campaign to start one up, especially after touring through the former Dunn Lumber facility near the end of last year.

“That really sold me on what the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts is doing,” Nehring said. “It’s a no-brainer. Once their dream is realized, this space is going to be so well-used that it’s going to help revitalize this community.”

As the population of Marysville has expanded from 23,000 when Nehring started his first term on the Marysville City Council in 2002, to just north of 62,000 now, he touted the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts as a potential means of generating jobs for Marysville and keeping more money within the city limits.

“Right now, where they’re at is the vision stage,” Nehring said. “I know that it’s not easy to meet building requirements, but we need the building to be safe and accessible for everybody.”

Scott Randall, president of the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts, recalled how the Historic Everett Theatre’s limits of availability inspired him to wonder why his group couldn’t just get their own permanent space.

“There’s a real need for a cultural identity here in Marysville,” said Randall, who grew up in Everett but has lived the past six years in Marysville. “I toured

through a dozen buildings in Marysville, Arlington and Stanwood, and this was the one that called out to me, because it’s in the heart of its community. I’ve seen Everett evolve into a center for the arts, and there’s nothing that they have that we don’t have, except for a head-start.”

Randall echoed Nehring by encouraging the luncheon’s attendees to imagine what Marysville could be like within a decade of the institution of a local arts center, with more tourists and restaurants and shops drawn to the community as a result.

In the meantime, Randall acknowledged that this project is still in Phase I, because while new carpeting and fresh coats of paint have been applied, fire alarms and ADA-compliant bathrooms are still in the works.

“Once we can get those things taken care of, the city has agreed to grant us limited occupancy, so that we can generate our own income stream through classes and meetings,” Randall said. “In the meantime, it’s been costing us $4,500 a month for this place since June, and our well of grants is running dry.”

Randall is so committed to letting the Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts’ facility evolve into whatever it needs to be that he’s hesitant to even give the building a name yet, especially since that could be a prize for a generous enough donor.

“I’ve raised five children in the arts, and it’s helped to build their character,” said Ken Kettler, president and chief operating officer of the Tulalip Resort Casino.

“I think this is a great foundation, which is why I’m pleased to present you with a check for $1,000.”

The Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts invites those interested in donating or learning more to visit its Indiegogo fundraising campaign page at www.indiegogo.com/projects/new-marysville-community-arts-center.

“Also, we’ve always looking for volunteers,” Randall said. “There are lots of opportunities to participate, and those will increase as time goes by.”

Whitewall Brewing opens

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Aaron Wight and Sean Wallner were both veteran homebrewers with the Stilly Mashers, who had an affinity for well-crafted beer and a propensity for swearing that, one day, they’d get around to coming out with their own beers, until their wives finally challenged them to make good on their promise.

From this seed was born Marysville’s first craft brewery, Whitewall Brewing, whose name is a play on the combined last names of its founders, and whose taps are set to begin flowing at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 1, in Suite 1 at 14524 Smokey Point Blvd.

“The craft beer market is exploding, so I doubt we’ll be alone in Marysville for long,” Wallner said.

“What we have to offer is a selection of beers that we wouldn’t put on tap if we wouldn’t drink them ourselves. We wanted to share what we’ve been creating in our garages for years with the surrounding community.”

“There’s a distillery in Marysville, and it seems like there’s a new craft brewery opening every week in Seattle, but we couldn’t believe that there were no craft brewers in Marysville,” said Wight, who expressed his respect to the Skookum Brewery for cornering the market in Arlington.

Wight and Waller built Whitewall Brewing out of donations and saved-up pennies — in one case literally, with a bar counter that’s covered in donated pennies, encased in glass — so that they can open up debt-free, and they look forward to offering regularly returning patrons a rotating variety of about five beers at any given time, plus hard cider and root beer on tap.

“We’re sticklers for quality because we’re beer geeks,” Wallner laughed.

“We’ll do what we know well, and we hope that’ll keep people coming back.”

OLYMPIA — Native American Heritage Day is one step closer to becoming an official state holiday, under a bill passed on Friday, Feb. 14, by the Senate.

Senate Bill 6078, sponsored

by Sen. John McCoy, D-Tulalip, would declare the fourth Friday in November a state and school legal holiday. Under state law, state

offices and schools are already closed the day immediately following Thanksgiving Day. “This holiday is extremely significant to the many tribal members in our state,” McCoy said. “It offers people a chance to celebrate the culture, traditions and languages of Native Americans.”

Only two other states have designated days honoring Native American heritage as state legal holidays. SB 6078 now goes to the Washington State House of Representatives for consideration.

Shoultes offers activities to Hispanic families

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Some balloons, newspapers, tissue paper and construction paper added up to some family bonding time in school on the afternoon of Wednesday, Feb. 19, as Shoultes Elementary invited its Hispanic families to come make piñatas in the school’s cafeteria gymnasium after classes were out for the day.

Shoultes Elementary Principal Lynn Heimsoth credited Sandra Chavez, the English Language Learner natural helper, with coordinating the communication to the school’s Hispanic families about this event.

“I wanted to get the Hispanic families together here to help them become more part of the school

community,” Chavez said.

“A traditional activity like piñata-making seemed like the perfect thing to get them excited to do just that.”

Heimsoth echoed Chavez’s assertion that getting Hispanic parents and families more involved in Marysville schools benefits not only the Hispanic students, but also the community as a whole.

“By giving Hispanic families an activity to do together in the school, it gets those parents more engaged in their kids’ schools,” Heimsoth said.

“The more engaged those parents are, the better their students will do in school.”

Students and parents started out by layering inflated balloons with papier-mâché shells, cour-

tesy of old copies of The Marysville Glove, after which layers of tissue paper and construction paper were added to give the piñatas color and extra frills like horns.

“From there, we’ll fill the piñata shells with candy,” Heimsoth said.

“The Marysville Globe was our sole source of newspapers, the tissue and construction paper came from our school supplies, and I bought all the candy myself,” she laughed.

Of the roughly 40 Hispanic families who were invited, at least half were able to take part, which Heimsoth considers a decent attendance figure.

Julieta Montes is a new Shoultes Elementary parent this school year, since her son just started kin-

dergarten, but she already knew enough about her new school to agree with its mission and practices.

“It’s very important to get kids involved in activities at school,” Montes said, with Chavez serving as her translator. “I feel like we are being noticed through these events. The school is recognizing diversity and taking care of its families.”

“They treat me the same way they would treat anyone else,” said fellow Hispanic mom Lucia Ortiz, also translated by Chavez.

“I’m very happy here.”

“We love to have our families come to our school for any reason,” said Heimsoth, who touted Shoultes’ monthly coffees for Hispanic families. “I want them to see this as their school.”

Charles “ C h u c k ” B e r n a r d O’Neill passed away peacefully at home i n E l lensbu rg, WA , on Febr u a r y 1, 2014, after a long battle with cancer.

C hu ck love d t h e o ut d o o r s, e s p e c i a l ly boat i ng, watersk i i ng, camping, and snow skiing.

His passion in life was being a tow truck operator.

He started as a apprentice at S.L. Savidge learning the body and fender repair.

Later in life he opened his own repair shop in Lynnwood, WA, where he became very successful. In the 1950s, Chuck decided to have a career change and began employment at Allstate Insurance where he was an adjuster for storm damage. Chuck missed the fender repair business and decided to go back to the job he loved. He managed various body shops in Skagit and Snohomish County. In 1980 Chuck purchased a tow service in Arlington, WA. The business was successful and expanded to Stanwood and Smokey Point. He also had an answering service and a pilot car service for oversized loads.

In 1989 Chuck was injured while responding

to an accident on I-5. He was hit by a vehicle and spent many months i n h o s p it a l s and underwent many surgeries.

Despite doctors telling him not to, Chuck went back to his passion, the job of towing. After 25 years in the towing business, Chuck and his wife Elaine retired to Ellensburg in 2006.

Chuck is survived by his wife Elaine O’Neill, Ellensburg, WA; The mother of his children, Ann O’Neill, Arlington, WA; His daughters Kathy (Steve) Sanchez, Big Lake, WA; Joan (Dean) Jensen, Stanwood, WA; Peggy (Dave) Wilson, Mukilteo, WA; and Mary (Randy) Kemple, Arlington, WA. His step-children Yvonne (Terry) Nelson, Mansfield, WA; Daniel Weaver, Twin Falls, ID; Robert Weaver, Ellensburg, WA. His brother Larry (Barbara) O’Neill, Lake Stevens, WA; and many nieces and nephews and cousins.

15 Grandchildren and 16 Great-grandchildren.

In lieu of f lowers, donations can be made to the Seattle Children’s Hospital or Hospice.

Memorial Service to be decided at a later date.

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

Arlington sculptor adds ‘Mussel Beach’ to Gig Harbor

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

GIG HARBOR — An Arlington artist is making a landmark difference to another community.

Arlington Arts

Council member Verena Schwippert’s works are familiar features on the Arlington landscape, between the salmon spawning pool on the trail south of Burke Street, the

“Dedicated to the Beauty of Earth” artwork on Fourth Street, purchased

by Virginia Hatch in honor of her husband, and most recently, “Waterline” in the park adjacent to Lebanon Street, across the street from Les Schwab.

“Verena gave us a really good deal on ‘Waterline’ a few years ago,” Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney said of the three huge, highly polished granite boulders. “It’s a real tribute to the power of the river.”

Schwippert, a stone sculptor who often uses granite from the Cascade Mountains, was again in her element when she was commissioned to create three large granite mussels for a piece called “Mussel Beach,” which was funded by Percent for the Arts from the Washington State Arts Commission, and will be part of Gig Harbor’s Eddon Boat Park.

“There will be a ribboncutting for the entire park, which is a Washington State Historic Heritage site, and an extensive environmental cleanup and restoration project, with help from the Department of Ecology,” Schwippert said.

“The entire project took 10 years to complete.”

Schwippert’s sculptures will be located within an ADA-accessible area at the southeast corner of the park, and the ribbon-cutting will commence at 3 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 28.

Schwippert personally invested more than 600 hours in sculpting the mussels, and extended her thanks to Pat Barton, Carl Nelson, Bob Leverich, Travis Brown, Reg Akright, Norbert Jäger, Tracy Powell, Martin Beach, Michael Gardener, Ken Barnes, Tom Monaghan and Mike Sweney, as well as the Washington State Arts Commission, “without whom ‘Mussel Beach’ would not be. Eddon Boat Park is also a wonderfully successful restoration project.”

“Verena is one of our extra-special community treasures,” Arney said. “Her sculpture in Gig Harbor is so perfect for the location.

The beach itself is now named ‘Mussel Beach,’ after her sculpture.”

STUDENTS FROM PAGE 1 room.”

Amy Sheldon, president of the Marysville Special Education PTSA, reiterated the parents’ stated willingness to work with the school district, as well as their expressed optimism over the new leadership that will follow in the wake of the co-directors of the district’s special education services both resigning the week before. She invited the

Board to attend MSEPTSA’s next meeting, at Kellogg Marsh Elementary starting at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, March 11.

Michelle Breitinger, who has two children at Kellogg Marsh Elementary, noticed that her autistic son Andrew came home with different and unwanted behaviors after the first week of this school year, and ultimately removed him due to what she described as the unkindness of a para-educator.

“He’s studying with Sylvan Learning now,” Breitinger said. “He’s a fourth-grader who was reading at a firstgrade level. Just because they’re special needs doesn’t mean they can’t learn. It’s not okay that I should have to pay $5,000 to bring my child up to the proper reading level.”

“It’s not okay” was a repeated refrain of fellow Kellogg Marsh Elementary mother Trish Fuerte, who not only recounted a Dec. 18 incident of alleged abuse by school

staff against her son Aiden, but also held up two pieces of evidence to support her claim — a pair of Aiden’s underwear, torn almost completely apart, in ways that they hadn’t been when he’d left for school on the day in question, and a drawing Aiden made later, which he described as what had happened, showing him being pulled and hurt by the school staff member.

“My son has not got a lot of language, but he does not lie,” Fuerte said. “From one

“We want to assure parents that we have a process for addressing any and all allegations made against staff.”

Dr. Becky Berg Superintendent, Marysville School District human being to another, this is not okay to have happen to anyone, let alone a child without a voice.”

Marysville School Board President Dr. Tom Albright assured the parents in attendance of his con-

cern and empathy for their situation,noting that his wife had worked in special education and that “this is personal to me.”

“We are thoroughly invested in not leaving any child behind,” Marysville School District Superintendent Dr. Becky Berg said to the parents that evening.

In a later statement, Berg emphasized that the district’s administration and Board appreciated hearing from the parents, and that they take all such reports seriously.

“We want to assure parents that we have a process for addressing any and all allegations made against staff,” Berg said. “We cannot, however, discuss personnel allegations or any active investigation. We want parents to know that we are listening.

We want to work together and do what is best for all children. Although we have currently experienced changes in our special education department, it is our goal to make a seamless transition.

We value our working relationship with parents, as we focus on the needs of each child.”

The district acknowledged that Kenneth D. Chovil and Tracy Suchan Toothaker, who had served as co-directors of the district’s special education services, recently separated from service with the district “to pursue other opportunities,” according to Jodi Runyon, executive assistant to the superintendent.

Runyon reported that the district has hired an interim executive director, Dave Gow, as well as an interim director, Dr. Bob Gose, to lead the department, primarily in support of secondary schools.

Gow served in the Shoreline School District for 30 years as a special education teacher and director, and in the Mukilteo School District for nine years as special education director, retiring in 2011.

Gose has also worked several years in education, with the latter half of his career spent as a school psychologist and special education student services coordinator in the Shoreline School District, prior to his retirement in 2013.

“A lot of changes can happen within certain windows,” Runyon told The Marysville Globe. “The timing is odd, and it could seem like it’s all happening at once, but it’s coincidental.”

Runyon expects Gow and Gose will serve out their codirectorships through the remainder of the school year.
