Lakewood considers completely new high school

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

LAKEWOOD — While the Lakewood School District has hired a new principal, new teachers and other new employees for the school year starting on Wednesday, Sept. 3,

perhaps the biggest change under way is the progress toward a new Lakewood High School facility.

Voters approved the bond to improve the existing high school building back in May, but their money might get them a completely new school instead.

Lakewood Superintendent Michael Mack explained that state law requires school districts to hire “value engineers” to evaluate the architecture and design plans for building projects.

“It’s good sense to have an independent firm take a second look

at those plans,” Mack said. “They typically take a tour of the existing facility, with the plans to remodel it in hand, and check out everything from the structure, the plumbing and the electrical systems to the SEE NEW, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — Julie Delaney has spent the week before the start of school on Wednesday, Sept. 3, getting her classroom at Pioneer Elementary ready for her seventh year of teaching kindergarten, from organizing art supplies to preparing name tags.

“For many of them, it’s their first school experience, so I want it to be as warm and inviting as possible,” Delaney said. “Everything is temporary on the first day.

I’ll give them different cub-

bies to put away their stuff, depending on who’s taller or smaller. I’ll also make sure our left-handed children are seated on the right ends of their tables, so they’re not bumping their neighbors with their arms.”

The Arlington School District is projecting an enrollment of 5,476 students at the start of this year, 596 of whom are expected to attend Pioneer Elementary. Of those who will attend her kindergarten class, Delaney makes sure her room accommodates the flow of her days’ activi-

“About half of my students anymore have already used iPads at home, but they all learn that these are not toys, but the school district’s property,” Delaney said.

Delaney has seen more

kindergarten students not only shifting to full-day classes, but also adapting to higher standards, tackling assignments that she would have expected to see second-graders working on 20 years ago.

“I’ve also seen more of an in-class presence from the superintendent and the principals,” Delaney said.

“They’ve got a good sense of the pulse of the schools.

From our staff to our parents and the community, Arlington as a whole really seems to believe that it takes a village.”

While Delaney encouraged parents of all ages of students to stay connected by following up on correspondence from their schools, she also advised parents of younger students SEE 1ST DAY, PAGE 2

The purpose of such an evaluation is to look for potential cost savings, such as by substituting one type of building material with another, but the value engineers who toured LHS offered a surprising observation.

“They told us they thought it would be cheaper to build a brand-new building than to remodel the existing building, because the high school is so old and the remodeling that we’ll have to do is already so extensive,” Mack said.

“At the very least, they saw it costing the same amount of money, which would still get us a building that isn’t 35 years old. Plus, we could redesign it to fit our needs, rather than trying to retain some aspects of the old building.”

Mack explained that the Lakewood School Board will consider this proposal, with a public hearing to discuss both options on Wednesday, Sept. 10, from 5-6 p.m., just prior to the LHS open house. If the board chooses to adopt the value engineer’s alternative, it will vote to do so the following Wednesday, Sept. 17.

In addition to gaining square footage and being about to lay out the facility’s floor plan to better suit the needs of students, staff and community members, Mack noted that a completely new building could be constructed without disrupting classes in the existing high school.

In the meantime, LHS will start the school year with a new principal, Michael Curl, formerly of the Burlington-Edison School District.

He’ll be joined by Calista Ham, who’s coming from Lakewood Middle School to fill a full-time counseling position, while Kristi Lentz has been re-hired as the Spanish teacher.

Just as the district conducted “Cougar Days” two weeks before the start of school, to help acclimate stu-

dents to their schools with staff on site, so too will LHS freshmen be given a three-hour head-start over returning students on the first day, with freshman orientation running from 7:30-10:30 a.m. Sept. 3.

Paige Shinkus and Sara Funston’s volleyball practice sessions have given them a sneak peek at the current high school, while teammate and LHS senior Erin White will be helping guide freshmen through the school during the first day.

“I get nervous about the lockers and getting lost,” Shinkus said. “It’s a bigger campus, with better sports and more opportunities.”

“I’m looking forward to having new teachers and more classes that I can sign up for,” Funston said.

“Freshmen should take advantage of as many opportunities as they can,” White said. “High school is not as restrictive as middle school.”

Mack elaborated that every two LHS leadership students will be assigned to a group of 12-15 freshmen. Not only will they show off the sights of the school during freshman orientation, but they’ll continue to mentor their freshmen throughout the year.

LHS has a projected enrollment of 750 students for the start of this year. The remaining 2,375 students are expected to attend the following schools: • Cougar Creek Elementary — 378.

• English Crossing Elementary — 356.

• Lakewood Elementary — 348.

• Lakewood Middle School — 539.

Former LHS principal Dale Leach will step into Mack’s old roles as director of Career and Technical Education and Social Services, as well as an assistant principal for Lakewood Middle School.

Of the district’s 14 other new hires, four are teachers and one is an interim appointment made permanent. The district expects to hire an additional teacher shortly.

“Ironically, if a child is shy or nervous, a lingering parent can actually make the separation more difficult,” Delaney said. “If you leave quicker, they tend to acclimate faster.”

Meanwhile, the families who stopped by Arlington High School for its “Eagle Days” Aug. 25-26 were old hands at gearing up for the first day, although parents such as Ric Eastman and Claire Cundiff would have appreciated a bit more clarity in the order of sign-ups.

“We could have used a little more guidance in which lines we were supposed to stand in first,” said Cundiff, whose twin daughters, Zoe and Kate, will start their freshman year.

“I would have welcomed a little more direction in the chaos,” agreed Eastman, whose daughter, Leah, is also a freshman. Fortunately for Leah, her grandmother, Jenni McKernan, had attended the first of the two “Eagle Days” to find out the shortcuts ahead of time.

While Leah wasn’t nervous at all, Zoe was struck by how “gigantic” her new school was, but looked forward to the “awesome” variety of subjects that awaited her.

“There’s a lot more people here, and the classes will be way more complicated,” said fellow freshman Charly Waddell, one of Zoe’s friends.

“But I have friends who are already here.”

AHS senior Megan Manzano provided tours of the school during the “Eagle Days,” in addition to suggesting various ways that students could connect with their new school.

“We’ve talked about DECA and sports and language clubs,” Manzano said. “I also let them know how they could follow us on Facebook and Twitter, and how to get to certain places on campus. Your first day, you have to be ready to learn a lot, and integrate that knowledge into a new environment, so you should be willing to try new things.”

AHS Assistant Principal Erik Heinz noted that the “Eagle Days” have been tweaked not only since last year, but also between its first and second days this year, to make it more efficient for students to pay for ASB membership and yearbooks, get their pictures taken for IDs and obtain class schedules.

“Next year, we’re looking at opening some

The most recently released student enrollment numbers for the district are as follows: • Eagle Creek Elementary — 514.

• Kent Prairie Elementary — 595.

• Pioneer Elementary — 596.

• Presidents Elementary — 535.

• Haller Middle School — 675.

• Post Middle School — 567.

• Arlington High School — 1,701.

• Weston High School — 138.

• Stillaguamish Valley School — 155.

Of the district’s 32 new hires, 14 are teachers, of which six went from Current Year Only to continuing contracts, and seven are para-educators, all of whom went from CYO to continuing contracts.

Of note are the district’s two new principals. While assistant principal Alan Boatman was moved from Post Middle School to AHS, Mischelle Darragh was hired as the new assistant principal for Post, and Joseph Doucette is now the Stillaguamish Valley School principal and alternative learning administrator.

Andrea Conley, public information coordinator for the district, acknowledged that none of its schools made Adequate Yearly Progress this year, but because Kent Prairie is in its first year of not meeting AYP, it qualifies as a “school of choice.”

‘Dream’ transport center in use

3

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – Dream Big is a theme you hear all over the Marysville School District.

“Dreams do come true,” district finance director Jim Baker said.

Baker long has wanted to have a state-of-the-art, centrally located Transportation Center for the district.

His dream became a reality, thanks to the Lakewood School District and the state of Washington. The district now has a 37,816 square foot shop and office building at 4302 134th St. NE. Of the $10,756,368 cost, the state paid for $8,156.368.

The local part, $2.6 million, actually was left over from a bond passed in 2008 to build Marysville Getchell High School and Grove Elementary School. So voters didn’t have to approve any extra funds to build the facility.

Marysville can thank Lakewood for the state funds because a law passed years says that districts working together can get 90 percent funding on transportation facilities, as long as other criteria also are met. “We would not have qualified without them,” Baker said.

“With their cooperation we took full advantage” of that law.

To compare, the state will only pitch in 25 percent for a school, Baker added.

The district hopes that other public entities also will come on board and use the center. For example, Baker said the lifts are big enough for a fire truck. The district hope the Tulalip Tribes and other cities will come on board. The more others use the facilities, including a huge meeting room available to the pub-

The almost $11 million transportation facility has enough parking spaces for 100 buses, plus room for 30 more in the future, top. It also offers a drive-through bus wash that the Marysville School District hopes other public entities will want to use, such as for fire trucks, above left.

Also at the facility are car seats used in buses that carry disabled students. lic, the more funds will be brought in to help the district with its finances.

The facility offers a variety of services. A bus wash is one of the standout features. Instead of a bus driver spending an hour or so cleaning a bus, the driver can go through the automated bus wash in three to five minutes.

“It’s a huge time saver,” Baker said, adding it also reuses 80 percent of its water, “so we don’t waste water like the old one did.”

There’s also a wand-wash area where drivers can clean the underside so there’s “less gunk of them,” said John Bingham, who oversees the center.

With cleaner buses and other district vehicles, Baker said the hope is they will last longer as problems are seen

earlier. The district already keeps buses beyond their expected life cycle because they cost $110,000 each.

Baker said it will be tough to improve on their already spotless record, but cleaner vehicles also could mean better safety inspections.

The state patrol randomly spot checks 10 percent of the fleet once a year, and then checks them all every year, usually when school’s out.

The center boasts other improvements over the old site. Instead of one drivethrough area with two lifts, there are now 11 lifts.

Instead of fueling two vehicles at once, it can now put gas in 12 at a time. Instead of having to park all 100

buses on half an acre, there’s now room for even 30 more.

Instead of bus drivers having to park on the street, there’s now an area for them. There also are lockers for drivers, a lunch room, computers for drivers to use, a lounge area for them, a dispatch center, and even showers.

Even an oil change is high-technology, as the old oil is vacuumed out with a hose. The huge garage is for maintenance and repairs of all district vehicles.

“It’s larger than what we need right now,” Baker said.

“With this space, we have built it for 30 years into the future.”

An open house is planned for the facility at 11 a.m.

The Village restaurant, known up and down I-90 as the pie place, stood somewhere near 6th Street and State, next to Marysville Fuel and Lumber that morphed into the big blue-gray building on the east side of State that houses a mix of shops and services.

Given the trend, it’s not hard to envision a time when we buy all our books from Amazon, all our hardware from Home Depot or Lowes, all sporting goods from Cabella’s and all our everyday stuff from WalMart. And that will be a day when all profits are ducted off to corporate accounts, leaving smalltown America working in a 21st Century version of serfdom.

It’s not a healthy situation.

Local business, like local forests, can thrive only when leaves fall and decompose to nourish the roots. But when corporate interests rake away the leaves (profit), they die. This leaves the nation’s business schools with a conundrum: What’s good for big business may not be good for the economy.

M’ville students learn CPR

Marysville-Pilchuck senior Jason Kent learns CPR.

Darla Varentti, Nick of Time Foundation Students from MG, Marysville-Pilchuck and Tulalip Heritage were scanned for potential heart defects, trained in CPR and the use of the automated external defibrillators.

“The AED is the only thing that can save you during a cardiac arrest,” Varrenti said.

Doctors use an echograph and sonograph to look for electrical and structural anomalies in the heart that could trigger a cardiac arrest.

“You can’t just hear it,” Varrenti said. “You have to see it.”

“I got to talk to a doctor, and I want to be one someday so that’s really cool,” M-P senior David Gloyd said.

“And I learned to do CPR.” Varrenti was pleased with the turnout.

“It’s been great. We’re really happy,” Varrenti said.

“We had close to 400 kids today.”

ARLINGTON — What progress has the Arlington Police Department made since the study that revealed deficiencies in its operations?

Public Safety Director Bruce Stedman addressed the City Council Aug. 25 to report the department’s progress since June 3 in five areas; communications, accountability, professional development, succession planning and strategic planning.

“Most of the time, we’ve been addressing these areas one-on-one with our employees and volunteers,” Stedman said. “We’ve got a lot of great officers and records personnel.

I’m very happy with them as individuals.”

Stedman has instituted an intra-departmental newsletter that lets personnel know every week what the new developments are on fronts such as setting up shop in the Smokey Point substation.

While the “All-In” campaign has connected police to community members, giving each side points of contact with the other, Stedman also touted the police’s improved interactions with other city departments, and even outside agencies such as the banks that own vacant homes.

“We’ve been able to work with code enforcement to trespass people from those homes,” Stedman said. “Last week, we tracked down one homeowner who’d lost his house to the bank, but his name was still on the title, so they agreed to sign a trespass order.”

As both Arlington’s fire chief and a former college-level instructor, Stedman has been loaning out his own texts, and securing other resources, to give the officers of today the tools to become the leaders of tomorrow

“Most of the time we’ve been addressing these areas one-onone with our employees and volunteers.”

Bruce Stedman, Public safety director Stedman recited the police department’s new mission statement — to partner with the community to provide “exceptional law enforcement services to improve the quality of life in Arlington” — and listed its threeyear goals for 2014-17: • Hire, train and retain quality staff to meet the community’s needs.

• Reduce drug-related crime by 30 percent.

• Build and maintain strong community relationships, participation and trust.

• Develop a cohesive department.

When council member Jesica Stickles asked how that 30 percent reduction would be measured, Stedman admitted that the police were still hashing out those metrics.

“To a certain degree, it’s about quality of life,” Stedman said.

Stedman agreed with council member Marilyn Oertle’s assertion that the criminal issues facing Arlington “don’t stop at our city limits,” which is why he’s been exploring cooperative efforts with other police chiefs.

“Are other cities using residential trespasses the same way we are?” Mayor Barbara Tolbert asked. “They’ve been calling us about it,” Stedman said.

“The AED is the only thing that can save you during a cardiac arrest.”

1121091

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville School District was visited by the Nick of Time Foundation at Marysville Getchell High School.

The school district was on the wait list for three years, and they decided that the MG campus would be the best meeting ground for Marysville students this week.

Nick of Time aims to raise awareness of sudden cardiac arrest, the leading cause of death in young people during exercise.

Nick of Time travels to various schools in Washington to promote its message.

“Kids need to know that their hearts are healthy,” executive director Darla Varentti said.

Varentti’s son, Nicholas “Nicky” Varrenti, was a victim of sudden cardiac arrest.

The 16-year-old was a standout football player for Mill Creek High School in 2004, but died of sudden cardiac arrest in his sleep.

The foundation was started in 2006 to educate students and schools about the risk and procedures dealing with sudden cardiac arrest.

Ex-Arlington woman ‘s Alzheimer’s

ARLINGTON – Diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, a former Arlington woman didn’t shut down.

She didn’t shut up either.

She spoke out, writing and getting her first book published at age 70.

Nancy Williams Nelson competed in a triathlon at 60, ran multiple half-marathons from 60-68, had a heart-valve replacement at 68 and was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s Disease at age 69.

“Arlington helped shape one strong lady,” said her daughter, Jennifer Drummond. “My mom is not taking this grim diagnosis and shutting down. She’s a fighter.”

The book she wrote, called “Blue River Apple,” is about her fight. Her father suffered the same fate, but

back then no one talked about it. She wants to bring it out in the open.

“She wanted everyone she loved to be aware and informed of her journey,” Drummond said.

She turned to pen and paper and began to write her fears, frustrations and revelations in the form of poems.

She was born in 1944 and raised in Arlington.

Her dad, Bob Williams, was a log-mill owner and auctioneer for many years.

Drummond also spent summers in Arlington, and they still have family in Marysville.

“I cannot be any prouder or in awe of her strength, conviction and selflessness in her mission to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves any longer,” her daughter said. “”With the spirit and love of her supporters she can move mountains.”

Nelson, now in Las Vegas, says in a video that she is passionate about making a difference and helping millions of seniors have hope and to cope. About 5.4 million people nationwide have Alzheimer’s. About twothirds are women.

It’s all AbouttheWOW, other small firms at event

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce’s latest Business After Hours not only shined a spotlight on some smaller business, but also paved the way for a future partnership with the Downtown Arlington Business Association.

Randy Farrell, co-owner of AbouttheWOW, was one of nearly half a dozen merchants showcased in the Legion Park gazebo during the Aug. 21 Business After Hours. He cited the chamber’s offices and visitor information center at the Depot in Legion Park as one reason why he and his wife, Edith, began talking with Mayor Barbara Tolbert about branching out.

“We’ve operated out of Granite Falls, with the new route they’ve set up, a lot of people are going to miss that town altogether,� Farrell said. “Here, you’ve got the chamber offices and visitor center right on Centennial Trail.�

Event organizer Michele Wiley provided tours of the Depot. “Businesses can stock their own brochures at the Depot, which also provides maps and guides,� Wiley said. “This all makes it a perfect stop for tourists, especially since it’s right on the Michele Wiley, trail, in one of Arlington’s event organizer parks and in the middle of its downtown hub.�

The Local Scoop complemented the networking between businesses with an on-site ice cream social, and DABA President Mike Britt extolled

“This all makes it a perfect stop for tourists, especially since it’s right on the trail, in one of Arlington’s parks and in the middle of downtown.�

Kirk Boxleitner/Staff Photo

Edith and Randy Farrell talk about their business, AbouttheWow, at the chamber event.

Arlington’s virtues as a business-friendly community. “He was very motivational and inspiring,� Wiley said. “In fact, we’re looking at hosting some events jointly in the future, possibly even the Hometown Halloween or Hometown Holidays.�

One resource the chamber could always

use, to stage such events, is a number of volunteer ambassadors. “One of our ambassadors was ill and the other ran late due to traffic, so I was freaking out for a little bit,�

Wiley laughed.

City Public Works Director Jim Kelly presented the proposed TIP for 2015-20 during the council’s Aug. 25 workshop.

He summarized road construction projects that would be funded by gas tax monies. “These are projects that are important to the city, which are in the process of

construction, design work or planning,� Kelly said. “The newest project on that list is the pavement preservation program,� he added.

Kelly described TIP as an adjunct to the city’s comprehensive plan, in that it’s planning for urban growth by preparing the transportation infrastructure for projected traffic increase.

When council member Jan Schuette asked about the distance between traffic signals that seemed relatively close to each other, Kelly explained that the placement of signals is governed by the traffic itself. “When they’re close enough together, the signals are synchronized to facilitate the flow of traffic,� Kelly said.

Learning on demand key to technology use

By STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

Steve Powell/Staff Photo

Staff in Marysville are meeting this week to discuss the school year, which begins Sept. 3.

Another key issue for the superintendent this year is the district’s new slogan: “Engage. Prepare. Inspire.”

That is short for: • Engaging our community in support of our students.

• Inspiring our students to find their passion and pathway.

• Preparing our students for new economic and social realities.

Berg and the district actually started on this vision last year with community coffees and town hall meetings. About 300 people came to one event, called “Dream Big for Kids.”

Berg plans to continue such outreach again this year because engaging the community is such an

important part to a successful school district.

“It helped us understand local values and priorities,” she said.

The district plans to continue to partner with the city of Marysville, Tulalip Tribes, the YMCA and the Boys and Girls Clubs. It also plans to continue using online surveys, such as the one that had 2,000 responses last May-June, to discover differing points of views in the district.

“But we don’t want to lose the personal touch,” Berg said. “We have a whole array of approaches.”

A new concept this year to get community involvement is a Parents Academy.

Still in the idea phase, Berg’s

vision for that is having a regular night, one or twice a month, where parents can come and learn about different things related to school: such as special education, conferences, how to nagivate schools, etc.

“We want to break down barriers some folks feel toward educational institutions,” she said. “It’s a methodical, trust-building process.”

Berg said no matter what the policy wars are in our nation’s capital or in Washington state, the Marysville district is focused on what the local people want.

“We reflect the voice of our constituency,” she said.

MARYSVILLE – On Demand is not only a popular cable service, it’s also a popular learning style.

So says Marysville School District superintendent Becky Berg, whose 11,150 students start school Wednesday, Sept. 3.

Berg said one focus the district will have this and the next two years will be learning how to better use technology in their teaching.

“Anyone can learn anything on the internet,” she said, adding young people have known that for years.

“It’s on demand learning.

Schools need to reflect more of that.” Even though it will be a challenge, schools need to embrace it, she added.

“We will be up to our eyeballs” in technology, with wireless everywhere in the district, Berg said. It will mean professional development for teachers and a changing role between learner and mentor.

Technology is even more important this year in schools because the new state-mandated Smarter Balance Assessment has to be taken online.

“Ironically the state does not fund technology, so I’m thrilled the community voted for the levy or we’d be doing this piecemeal,” Berg said.

district has hired 10 new employees in administration, 44 new teachers and 40 new paraprofessionals.

Some of the schools have new leaders. Eneille Nelson, a former Marysville Middle School teacher and then assistant principal, is now principal at Kellogg Marsh Elementary. Sharon Grove left that school for Grove Elementary. Angie Hansen is now at MMS after switching spots with Susan Hegeberg, who is now principal at the International School of Communications.

Terri Kaltenbach is the principal at both 10th Street Middle School, and Arts and Technology High School at the Tulalip Campus.

Most of the elementary schools will go from 9:20 a.m. to 3:35 p.m., middle schools from 8:15 a.m. to 2:50 p.m., and the high

Lakewood fall teams return top players

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood Cougars soccer, volleyball and cross-country teams expect to do well this year as they each return some standout players.

Chase Gormley.

“We are looking for significant contributions from the following individuals,” head soccer coach Steve Brown said. “They have received varsity letters in the past two seasons.”

Lakewood volleyball will utilize some strong veterans this upcoming season.

“We will have some powerful offense from this nucleus, along with great leadership and experience,” volleyball head coach Tasha Kryger said.

Some of those players are senior setter Erin White, who was Cascade Conference honorable mention, senior outside hitter Kate Anderson who was Cascade

Conference second team, junior outside hitter Morgan Shimkus and senior outside hitter Jamie Cooper.

Head cross-country coach Jeff Sowards said to keep a look out for seniors Douglas Davis and Alex Cooper for the boys side, and sophomore Keely Hall and junior Britney Albro on the girls side.

M-P, MG swimmers hope to make waves

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

MARYSVILLE — MarysvillePilchuck and Marysville Getchell’s composite girls swim team will return with much depth from both teams for its 2014 season, M-P and MG swim coach Jaci Legore-Hodgins said.

On M-P’s side, sophomore Abby Magee had tremendous performances last year as a single and relay swimmer,

placing high in districts and competing in state. Junior Rebekah Pusateri is also expected to have a strong season.

Senior and captain Serena Corbett will step up in leadership and improve her backstroke, Hodgins said.

Two other senior captains, Corrine Tubbs and Lisa Fuller, are also looking to lead the Tomahawks.

Marysville Getchell returns two divers and adds a new one. Senior Brooke

Wherely, who placed second in state, and junior Alex Pimental, who was tied for ninth are back.

First-year diver Chloe Bishop is anticipated to be a terrific addition to the diving team, Hodgins said.

The leadership consists of captains Wherely and senior Samantha Peterson.

“She is a strong leader and experienced swimmer who contributes both in and out of the pool,” Hodgins said.

Arlington Eagles ready to soar

Arlington’s cross country team practices for an upcoming meet.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Eagles hope to fly above and beyond in tennis and cross-country with some of their returning players.

Cross-country will return Nathan Beamer and Emma Janousek, who both ran at state last year.

They will look “stronger than ever,” head cross-country coach Mike Shierk said.

“We are poised to have a strong showing within the Wesco 3A ranks,” Shierk said.

“As always our team goals are focused on qualifying for the state tournament.”

Both the girls and boys teams will be stacked with new and veteran runners, Shierk said.

“We have a boys team with depth like we haven’t had in recent years. With only one senior harrier on the boys squad we should be strong for years to come,” Shierk said.

“The girls are equally tough with five of our top seven girls returning. The ladies look to do some serious damage this sea-

son.”

Meanwhile the Arlington boys tennis team will utilize some returning talent from last year, as well as developing fresh players this season.

Senior and team captain Connor Ghirardo finished second in regionals last season.

Arlington is looking to three sophomores to step up this season.

Isaiah Mitzelfeldt, Nick Mendro and Conner Gutheria are looking to be solid contributors, head tennis coach Sean Cunningham said.

Arlington is stepping down to Wesco 3A this year, which will alter the playing field.

“It will provide an interesting challenge for us as we will renew the rivalries with the Marysville schools and play our traditional rival, Standwood, twice,” Cunningham said.

He said Stanwood will be tough.

“I believe that Stanwood is the team to beat in 3A North tennis as they are a perennial league winner and have a tremendous amount of depth.”

MARYSVILLE — The Red Curtain Foundation for the Arts is preparing to expand its outreach even further.

Earlier this year, the foundation formed a partnership with the Public Servants, a production company focused on bringing art-related events to Marysville’s younger generations through interactive festivals.

The two groups’ next event together, called “MadeYaLook,” is set for Saturday, Sept. 13, at the Red Curtain Arts Center, formerly the Dunn Lumber building at 1410 Grove St. “MadeYaLook” is slated to showcase visual artists, musicians, crafters, poets, interactive displays and more.

Foundation President Scott Randall added that, within the past month, the foundation has entered into agreements that

have led to the Marysville Arts Coalition, the Marysville City Bands and the Northern Sound Choirs all planning to make the arts center their new home, beginning this fall.

“We’ll also be creating a large, fun mural on the front of the building this September, to help people identify the space as an arts center,” said Randall, who credited Marysville artist Cassandra Canady with designing the mural.

Following this painting session, the foundation’s fall classes will kick off Sunday, Sept. 21, with two newly hired instructors.

“We’ve also chosen our play season, which will begin with a holiday show this December,” said Randall, who promised that auditions will be announced very soon.

After EPA fine, firm agrees to cut hazardous waste 40%

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – Seacast was a lemon when it came to handling hazardous waste, but the Marysville company is going to use a new “water blast” system to turn it into lemonade.

The Environmental Protection Agency fined Seacast Inc., a metal casting facility at 6130 31st Ave. NE, $18,000 for violations at an inspection Jan. 31, 2012.

But Bert Robbins, vice president of the company, said those procedures have been fixed, and the firm is going to reduce its hazardous waste by 40 percent. It will spend $230,000 on a machine

that uses water pressure to clean metal, rather than caustic sodium hydroxide solutions, thereby reducing hazardous waste.

According to the consent agreement between the EPA and Seacast signed Aug. 12, Seacast has five months to start using the industrial pressure washer.

“We are going to use this opportunity to greatly reduce” our waste, Robbins said. “We are very committed to being environmental stewards.”

The EPA applauded Seacast for changing its cleaning method.

“Seacast has found a way to modify its production process and reduce its reliance on caustic cleaning solutions as a part of this

“We are very committed to being environmental stewards.”

Bert Robbins, Seacast vice president settlement,” said Scott Downey, manager of EPA’s hazardous waste inspection unit in Seattle.

Robbins said one of the biggest issues was some hazardous waste drums were stored on-site longer than the 90-day EPA limit. He said the problem was simple: the wrong drums were picked up.

“The EPA has very strict requirements,” he said. “It’s up to you to ensure” things happen cor-

rectly “regardless of the reason.”

Robbins said the procedures for handling hazardous waste drums have been restructured.

“That should never occur again,” he said, adding that the violation got Seacast asking how it could reduce the number of drums it sends out to process.

At the inspection almost three years ago now, the EPA found drums in storage for 138 days and 128 days.

In signing the agreement, Seacast did not admit or deny any wrongdoing. But the EPA did find many other alleged violations at its inspection, including: • A 55-gallon drum the company had no record of.

Worship Directory

• A type of hazardous waste not in a container.

• Some containers not labeled “Hazardous Waste.”

• Other containers not dated correctly.

• No emergency contingency plans posted.

• No emergency communications devices.

• Pallets with containers holding hazardous waste too close together.

• Hazardous waste that is supposed to be checked weekly, only checked eight times in two years.

The company hired a full-time environmental manager after the violations were identified, the EPA reported.

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.

When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.

The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet.

Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

Sykes psyched to return to the Tulalip casino TULALIP — When Wanda Sykes makes her return to the Tulalip Resort Casino Sept. 5-6, she’ll be doing a little gambling in addition to performing her shows, but she has one request for fans. “ D o n’ t be hugging on me if you’re wearing a tank top,” Wanda Sykes Sykes said.

“I can’t deal with exposed armpits.”

Even in interviews, Sykes lives up to her stand-up comedy credo that “I’ll say what other people think, but that they don’t say or won’t say.”

Although Sykes has enjoyed a diverse career in the entertainment industry over the past three decades, including stints on television and in films as an Emmy-winning writer for Chris Rock, an actress and a voice artist, she always comes back to stand-up.

“Stand-up is my day job,”

Sykes said. “When I do movies or TV shows, that’s more like I’m moonlighting.

When I do stand-up, it feels like I’m going to work. The stage is where I feel funniest. If I ever stopped doing stand-up, I’d feel like I was out of work. I love the challenge of it. There’s nothing like a live audience.”

While it’s her second visit to the area, she promised those who might have seen her at the casino a couple of years ago that she has plenty of new stuff to talk about.

“I just turned fifty, and my twins are five years old now, so there’s a lot that’s going on there,” Sykes said.

“If you come to my show, just be ready to laugh. I’m not here to teach you anything or get up on a soapbox and preach at you. I just want us all to have a good time, and to make you pee your pants laughing.”

The doors open at 7 p.m. at the Orca Ballroom for both of Sykes’ 8 p.m. shows, and all attendees must be 21 or older, with ticket prices starting at $45.

Cub Scouts don’t blow shot at sailing fun

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — After their parents had filled two parallel tracks of rain-gutters with water at Legion Park, the boys of Cub Scouts of America Pack 92 proceeded to huff and puff and blow their miniature sailboats down those tracks for their “Rain-Gutter Regatta.”

Cubmaster Jason Miller reported that the Aug. 21 event drew 12 boys and 18 parents, who all assembled their sailboats from the

same kit.

“It was an epic turnout, one of the biggest crowds we’ve had for the regatta,” Miller said. “It took each kid between a day to a week to put together their sailboat, depending on the kid. They could paint it whatever colors they wanted, but they couldn’t use any parts outside of the kit.”

Miller explained that, through the trial and error of the annual event, the boys have learned the importance of sail design and maintaining a low cen-

ter of gravity on their boats, which can only be propelled by their breath.

“Each year, they try to do better,” Miller said. “They develop independence and sportsmanship, even though nobody wants to lose a race.”

Although the regatta is the pack’s last event for the summer, Miller noted that it’s more active during the school year, and encouraged parents to stop by Pack 92’s tables at the Presidents and Kent Prairie elementary schools between 5-6:30 p.m.

on Tuesday, Sept. 2.

“Kids can’t join the Scouts until they’re in kindergarten, but once the school year is underway, we’ve got activities ranging from the Pinewood Derby, where they can build and race their own cars, to the Space Derby, where they can build and fire off their own rockets,” Miller said.

Miller also invited families to attend any of the pack’s den meetings at 6 p.m. on Tuesdays at Weston High School.
