Aspen Carbajal wrestles an Arlington High School teammate during a recent practice, above. At right, she coaches her little sister, Tatum, on how to do a card trick, another passion of Aspen’s. Not only is Aspen female in a male-dominated sport, she also is deaf. helping in her school’s shop and drama classes.

Other than that, Aspen is like any “typical teenager.” She has good and bad days, occasionally argues with family and hangs out

with friends, said her mom, Christina Carbajal.

Just because she can’t hear and speaks with an unusual “accent,” Aspen is not shy.

“I’m just shy at first,” Aspen said. “But when you

get to know me I can be very loud.”

Aspen was diagnosed at age 1 and was schooled from 3 years old to middle school at the Northwest School for the Deaf in Shorewood.

She “got her dose of reality” when she was enrolled at Arlington. To help her break-in, Aspen wanted to play a sport.

Food banks on volunteers

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON – When Jerrie Inman’s mom died in 1998, she made a promise to her that she would volunteer for the food bank.

Inman’s mom, Geraldine, was a firm believer in helping those less fortunate, as she managed the food bank in Darrington.

Inman finally followed through on the promise three years ago.

“Those southern mothers will Steve Powell/Staff Photo haunt you,” Inman joked.

Debbie Benson, Sue Otterness, Ann Blair and Greer Verrier shop for clients.

Inman is playing a major role this Christmas season as the Arlington Community Food Bank gives away ingredients to 400 families in need of help.

Arlington gave the food out over two days instead of one and gave out tickets so customers would know when to come in, making wait times shorter.

“At times we were inundated,” Inman said. “If we don’t do tickets SEE FOOD, PAGE 2

ARLINGTON — Walking the halls of Arlington High School is 15-year-old sophomore Aspen Carbajal.

Among her favorite subjects are robotics and biology. Her love for animals inspires her to become a veterinarian, but she also may be an engineer.

But when the final bell rings, Aspen hits the mat — she’s a wrestler for Arlington High School.

“She’s probably one of the more-popular kids on the team,” coach Rick Iversen said. “She always comes in with a great attitude.”

Aspen isn’t like other girls, and not just because she participates in a maledominated sport. She’s deaf.

“The reason I want to do this is to show that my deafness does not define me,” Aspen said. “Wrestling is all about you and that person in front of you.”

For Aspen, wrestling has been a catalyst, a stepping stone into trying new things.

Aspen also has seen herself

FOOD FROM Page 1 everyone comes at once.”

Before Arlington moved into its new location at 19119 63rd Ave. N.E. April 1 the all-volunteer staff looked at “best practices” from other area food banks to come up with the best system for their clients.

Customers come in, check what items they need from a grocery list, and volunteers shop for them as they wait.

In just a few minutes, their grocery carts are full.

Arlington gets a lot of help from a lot of businesses and people.

It received a windfall of sorts from the Stillaguamish Tribe last year with a $100,000 check in early December. But this year, when the food bank needed more hams for Christmas, the tribe provided them.

Every day a volunteer takes Arlington’s box truck to one of the Wal Marts in Marysville to load up items.

Safeway donates a lot, too.

Donations of food are way up this month – $51,000

The Arlington Times / The Marysville Globe

worth in half a month. That is about the same as all of November and up from $15,000 in July.

The Santa Run and other food drives also bring in a number of donations.

“All of the churches in town give us something for the holiday,” Inman said.

“We don’t have to buy much food.”

As for customers, 40 percent are adults, 32 percent kids and 25 percent seniors.

There are only a few “huge” families, Inman said. The average size is three. About 625 different families used the service this year, coming in twice a month.

Inman said the food bank is operated just like a store. They have to rotate stock so the oldest is out first. Dry foods they can used up to a year after the pull date and canned foods five years. Boeing donated a much-larger refrigerator and freezer so items such as meats can be stored longer.

“We can freeze twice as much as before. Boeing used it to cool plane parts,” Inman said.

Boeing, Bank of America

up for them. The 75 bags given away for winter break had more items than usual in them. The number of homeless bags they made have dropped since the city passed its no loitering law.

Utility bills are lower since they moved to the new place. “I used to go home it was so cold,” Inman said.

Ever since Kimberly Clark closed down, the Arlington food bank has been hurting for toilet paper.

“People seldom donate that, so when the American Legion did I was overjoyed,” Inman said.

Greer Verrier, left, goes over client shopping list with Jerrie Inman. Both are food bank volunteers. and others help in other ways. When volunteers from those businesses do work, say paving or moving 50,000 pounds of food from the old to the new site, those firms will match the work with a monetary donation.

Inman said the food bank missed out on about 7,000 pounds this year from the

Northwest Harvest Food Drive because they lacked volunteers. That might not hurt right now but “We’ll feel it in the summer.”

Inman said it can be hard to get vounteers because it is a physical job and retired people are just so busy.

“You have to make time to volunteer,” she said, add-

ing schools also are requiring fewer community service hours from students.

It’s tough work, a lot of lifting and standing,” Inman said.

Another program the food bank does to help the community is giving out bags of food at K-12 schools to those who sign

Lakewood schools excited for 2015

By Lakewood School District

As 2014 comes to a close, the Lakewood School District is excited about moving forward with the plans for the new Lakewood High School. Plans were originally to remodel the existing high school. But after an extensive review it was decided that a new high school would be built. The benefits of the all new construction approach include less disruption for students during construction, a more cohesive design for learning and program adjacencies, and a better use of taxpayer dollars.

The new building will have a well-defined and inviting entrance, with a two-story structure that blends natural lighting into the classrooms and community areas. The design includes elements to increase safety in the building and on the school grounds. The building will incorporate energy efficiency throughout the design.

The central commons area, gymnasium and theater will provide unique opportunities for 21st century learning and offer space for community use.

The district has reapplied for a conditional-use permit from Snohomish County for construction of

the high school. This permit, along with many others, are required prior to the start of construction. The building of the new high school will be completed in two phases.

The design team has been working diligently on the new plans, while maintaining the previous construction schedule. Phase 1 will begin in the spring of 2015, while Phase 2 will begin in the spring of 2016. What you will see next year in Phase 1 includes construction of the lower site parking areas, storm detention facilities, access roads, pedestrian paths, minor demolition, and grading for the new high school building. Also the district is evaluating the possibility of including improvements to the grandstand, football field and new tennis courts in Phase 1.

The work to be completed in Phase 1 will occur mainly to the south of the existing high school and the district only anticipates minor impacts to school operations during that time. With the completion of Phase 1, the district will be well-prepared to start Phase 2 and meet the schedule for opening the new school in August 2017. The building of the high school will provide the community an opportunity to watch the construction

progress and see their bond dollars at work.

The Department of Teaching and Learning started working with teacher leaders to identify how our curriculum aligns with the Common Core Standards, and we will continue this work next year. We are excited to implement the new Smarter Balanced State Assessment this spring because it will provide us with baseline data on our students that is also aligned with CCSS. Using this information we will provide more in-depth instruction for our students in the specific areas where they need it. We will also be identifying support materials to help our students be successful at all grade levels. In kindergarten through second grade, our work in reading will continue to ensure that all students are reading by the time they enter third grade.

Using funds from our technology levy we were able to replace almost 200 outdated XP and Windows 2000 machines. Our goal is to replace 20 percent of our aging computers each year. The year 2015 will be the first time all of our schools will have wireless access for comput-

Chamber undergoing changes

By Marysville Tulalip Chamber

The Greater Marysville Tulalip Chamber of Commerce celebrates its successes of 2014 and eagerly looks forward to even more in 2015, especially in the midst of great change.

GMTCC’s President/CEO of the past 22 years, Caldie Rogers, recently retired, and an executive search is under way with the expectation of the selection of a new president/CEO within the first quarter of 2015. The new president/CEO, under the direction of the board of directors, will continue to guide GMTCC in the support and strengthening of businesses in the MarysvilleTulalip communities.

This will entail renewed cooperation with the city of Marysville and the Tulalip Tribes with a focus on cementing and strengthening the spirit of unity that currently exists.

Accomplishing this also will require the continued cooperative interacting with many other local, regional, statewide, and national business organizations and political entities and organizations.

GMTCC’s Business Before Hours meetings at Tulalip Resort Casino will continue to feature the popular and valuable “State of the City,” “State of the Tribes,” “State of the Legislature,” and “State of the (Naval) Station” presentations as well as B2B networking events, talks about summer activities available to families and individuals both in Marysville and in Tulalip, and motivational speakers to give business owners fresh ideas about how to improve their businesses. During years of elections for public office, GMTCC intends to continue to produce candidate forums so that citizens can become more informed voters on current topics, especially as they relate to local business. GMTCC will continue to train interns in the basics and nuances of office procedures and professional conduct so that the interns can acquire meaningful employment in the business workplace. GMTCC also will continue to recruit and train volunteers to staff the Visitor Information Center co-located with GMTCC as well as manage the operation

of the VIC with its vital business resources.

GMTCC will host local workforce development efforts as well as provide business incubator support as opportunities become emergent. In 2015 local initiatives will be revitalized

by GMTCC to benefit local businesses. These initiatives include the successful “Buy Local” campaign of recent years as well as the muchawarded “Military Family Friendly Employment Initiative” that advocates for employment of trailing spouses and family members of deployed service members. GMTCC also intends, when funds become available, to revamp its website so that it is easier to use for chamber members, as well as more informative and easily browsed for general users.

The coming year promises to bring significant changes as well as many opportunities for success for GMTCC. The chamber embraces these opportunities and will continue to provide its services to our business communities for their continued success.

‘Peace on Earth’ the key in any belief system

Christmas is the season where our Christian community celebrates the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ some 2,000 years ago. This is the time we of the Christian faith reflect upon the grace that God has blessed us with – the gift of his only begotten son, sent to our world to save us from ourselves. Those of us of the Christian faith embrace and treasure this holy gift during the Christmas holiday season and throughout the year.

But the magic of Christmas transcends well beyond the secular meaning of the holiday. Believers of many other faiths also hold dear to the sentiments of this holiday gift – “Peace on earth, good will toward men”. People of other religions and beliefs can, and do appreciate this ideal, too. Especially in the wake of two horrific events that impacted all of us this year; the Oso landslide in March and the Marysville Pilchuck shooting in October. Here are two specific events that caused us all to shift gears and realign our daily lives to help others in a time of need.

The communities of Arlington, Lakewood, Smokey Point and Tulalip rallied together to help our neighbors and friends in the wake of these tragedies. In fact, I believe the outpouring of support Brown from all who participated was cathartic in a way. I am convinced that the willingness to be of service to others in a time of need is generally in our nature for most of us. And I believe service to our neighbors is a divine remedy to help heal our own personal anguishes. I am proud of our communities and how they all stepped up; from businesses to organizations to families to individuals, people were pitching in with what they had to offer, whether it be time, money, food, shelter or whatever resources they could provide.

Personally, I am not at all surprised by the altruistic giving we observed. It is basically who the citizens of these communi-

ties are.

Let’s not forget the fabulous work everyday performed by our area churches. And the dedicated people of organizations such as the Salvation Army, Goodwill Industries, American Cancer Society, Habitat for Humanity, just to name a few.

Our individual and collective support of these worthy organizations needs to continue well beyond the holidays.

But because we humans are flawed by nature, we don’t always live by the creed of “peace on Earth, good will towards men” throughout the year. I am no exception. We tend to fall short at times in our personal lives and relationships. We also see evidence of these character defects in the news virtually every day throughout our nation and the world in the form of war, crime, greed, lust and corruption. So, I’m inviting all who read this to join me in a New Year’s resolution. Let’s all commit to work a bit harder to be more kind, compassionate and understanding toward all people. I realize I will never be perfect.

God did not make me perfect. That is not an ideal I will ever achieve. But I can move closer toward being a better person if I conscientiously work at it.

And I choose to do just that. And finally, does it really matter what greeting we offer our neighbors during this holiday?

Whether it be Merry Christmas? Happy Holidays? Happy Hanukkah? Whatever?

I don’t feel any person should feel compelled to deny themselves of expressing a holiday greeting that is appropriate and comfortable to them personally. And those of us receiving this greeting should feel grateful, not offended, for another person’s gesture of kindness and good will.

After all, these greetings convey the same true underlying meaning of the holiday – Let there be peace on earth, good will toward men. I wish you all a truly blessed season of love, happiness and prosperity now and in the new year to come!

Paul Brown is publisher of The Arlington Times and The Marysville Globe.

‘Twas the nightmare before Christmas in D.C. Ds want it higher and will say Rs don’t care Hey, doesn’t that sound like class warfare?

‘Tis two days after session and all through the Dome, Not a member is working since they all have gone home;

House members left first, making deals left and right, Then voting out bills near the middle of the night; Senators meanwhile had debates on the floor, ‘Till the chance came Tuesday to bolt out the door; If Murray and Cantwell looked to be a bit dour, That’s because very soon they’ll be losing some power; They’re majority today, minority tomorrow, They’ve been in it before, still there’ll be some sorrow;

Lakewood FRoM Page 3 ers. Wireless will allow us to enhance learning for student’s districtwide. To ensure that we are providing the most-protection possible for our students, we have asked the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office to partner with

us as we take a critical look at our safety procedures. During 2015 the district’s Safety Committee will conduct a thorough review of our current practices, and then recommend possible changes to our emergency management procedures. We will modify and improve upon current practices as we learn new tactics and lessons from real-life situations. As part

of this process the district plans on holding a community forum to discuss the progress of the plan with our community.

The Superintendent Advisory Council was recently formed and comprised of district administration, community members, parents and staff. The purpose of this committee is to provide a venue for public involvement in educational

decisions under consideration by the district and/or board of directors. One of the first tasks of the council is to work on developing a district Strategic Plan, as the district looks to renew its District Improvement Plan during 2015.

The district is planning an Open House/Tech Expo on March 17, 2015. This event will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the high school.

Parents and community members will be able to learn about the various programs the district offers and see how technology is used in the classrooms, as well as the many community resources available to them. Special events will take place, including kindergarten registration, 8th grade Parent Information Night, and entertainment by various school groups.

Tips to deal with winter

With more stormy weather likely this winter, Snohomish County Public Utility District reminds customers to take steps to be safe when Mother Nature strikes.

• Steer clear of downed power lines: Approaching them can be fatal.

You don’t even have to touch it to be electrocuted.

If you get too close, electricity can find a path into one leg or foot, travel up the body and down the other leg and foot, and cause serious burns and injury or even death.

Stay at least 20 feet away.

Call the PUD immediately to report the location.

If the downed line is lifethreatening (for example, on top of an occupied car), call 911.

Some people think it’s OK to drive across downed lines, believing the rubber tires will protect them.

While that is true to some extent, the best rule is to avoid driving over downed power lines unless it is a last-resort.

• Beware of carbon monoxide emissions: Using a gas stove or charcoal grill inside your home for heating can have deadly results.

During last year’s windstorm, hundreds of people suffered carbon monoxide poisoning when they tried to heat their homes by turning on gas stoves or dragging grills or portable generators inside their homes.

Gas, oil, kerosene, char-

coal and wood all emit carbon monoxide – a colorless, odorless gas that can kill in minutes if inhaled at high levels (such as inside a house with windows shut).

Because carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms are similar to those for the flu, many people don’t realize they are suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning until it’s too late.

• Be safe with lamps and inflammables: Always use caution if you use candles or oil lamps.

Never leave them unattended, and keep them away from furniture, drapes and other inflammable materials.

In all cases, be sure you have enough ventilation.

• Use portable generators safely: Never plug a portable generator into your household wiring unless your home is equipped with a transfer switch that was installed by a licensed electrician.

Your generator could be damaged or it could back feed electricity through the meter and out into the neighborhood, where it would cause a severe safety hazard to neighbors and line workers.

If you need to power an appliance with a generator, plug it directly to the generator.

Also, remember to keep enough fuel on hand to power your generator through longer outages.

Tulalip focuses on helpings kids in 2015

By Les Parks Tulalip Tribes

When our children’s grandchildren read the history books and study the year 2014 it will be with sorrow for those who lived through the horrific tragedies of that year.

The Oso landslide and the Marysville-Pilchuck High School murders will never be forgotten, and the people who make up Snohomish County will never be the same.

Our hearts and souls are forever bound together in the wake of these tragic events. As we continue to rebuild our communities the Tulalip Tribes, Marysville, Arlington and Oso stand united.

As we enter a new year

the Tulalip Tribes and its membership will focus on healing. In particular, we will find ways to enhance programs for our youth.

In our Indian culture, we place much reverence on our elders, but right next to them are our children. We cannot be one without the other. This next year we will dedicate a new sports field and a skate park to our youth, as well as build on existing programs in the Boys and Girls Club and the Tulalip Youth Center.

We will also open our new and much-anticipated Early Learning Academy that is dedicated to pre-natal to 5-year-old education programs. Of all the programs that we could create, I am particularly excited to witness the Early Learning

EAST VALLEY

SAND & GRAVEL CO.

Academy, which will profoundly change the lives of future generations. We also anticipate breaking ground on a new Gathering Hall for our people where community functions will take place.

We will continue to bring a restored cultural emphasis to our teachings. All of this work is being done in the name of our children, our most precious resource.

We recognize and understand the obstacles facing our youth today and the intense pressure they are under. We will be focused on providing quality before and after school programs that will emphasize our cultural identity, while also remembering that we live in a world where cultural identities are many, and that all must be respected,

for none is better than the other. Knowing who you are and where you come from, is of particular importance to get where you are going, in a most spiritually beneficial manner. Our past is what defines our future. We wholeheartedly believe this.

In that very direction then, we are going to create a program that focuses on our history. Our history began with the last ice age retreating 13,000 years ago, and there is so much to be told of a people who subsisted on this land and in these waters before the arrival of the settlers. Our people were living in a veritable paradise, or God’s Country, as I like to call it, with year-round food sources and the See tulalip, page 9

THE ARLINGTON TIMES. THE MARYSVILLE GLOBE

ASPEN FROM Page 1 What sets Aspen apart is her courage to try anything.

“If she wanted to parachute,” Christina said. “She’d be the first to do it.”

So it was no surprise when she chose wrestling as her sport.

She picked it up as a freshman.

“It has helped me make friends,” she said. “I feel more accepted.”

Her dad, Alex Carbajal, played basketball for Arlington and knew the assistant wrestling coach, Jim Smoots.

Smoots approached Aspen’s mom, at the Stillaguamish Athletic Center where she works, and proposed the idea of Aspen wrestling.

“My coach walked into the middle of science class one day,” Aspen said.

“Iversen said, ‘I heard great things about you. I want you to try wrestling.’”

Apprehensive at first, Aspen discussed it with her parents. They agreed it would be good for her, and she showed up to preconditioning turnouts.

“Before I knew it, I was on the team and fell in love with the sport,” Aspen said.

It wasn’t easy at first.

Aspen was dreadfully shy and self-conscious in using her voice. It helped that her dad knew the coaches.

“I have a lot of people looking out for Aspen,” Alex said. “Arlington has been very supportive of her.”

One of those is senior team captain Clay Hunter.

“I personally talk to her as much as I can,” he said. “It comes with time, but she’s been doing great.”

Aspen cannot hear, but uses sign-language and lipreading as her means of communication. She signs and uses her voice at the same time.

“It has helped me make friends. I feel more accepted.”

Aspen, Arlington wrestler her detect some sounds.

“It’s a lot of fun working with her. She does a pretty good job communicating with us,” Iversen said. “Her first strength is that she is so sincere to want to succeed.”

Aspen’s teammates will use themselves as models to demonstrate wrestling moves.

“We use other people to go through the motions so she can get it,” said her teammate, Robin Hernandez.

Hernandez has noticed remarkable improvement in Aspen’s wrestling ability.

“Now she can get points on people and get takedowns,” Hernandez said.

“She’s just a great person to be around, and I’m glad she’s on my team.”

Hernandez and Aspen share an interest in dancing, a hobby Aspen picked up in middle school, sometimes busting out dance moves before matches.

Along with Aspen’s determination to learn, Hernandez has experienced her fellow wrestler’s improvements first hand.

“She keeps telling me ‘I’m going to get you one of these times,’” Hernandez said.

“She’s a really good sport and is never complaining.”

Although Aspen can’t hear, her overcompensation in vision gives her an unexpected advantage.

“I am very aware of my surroundings,” she said. “I can make my next moves based on vibration and sight.”

She is also able to concentrate better by drowning out noises, Smoots said.

But perhaps her best attribute is her intelligence.

“She is tremendously bright so when you show her something she catches

on quick,” Iversen said.

At home, Aspen unwinds by watching TV with her 7-year-old sister, Tatum. One of her favorite programs is Agents of S.H.E.I.L.D, and has an interest in superhero comics, with Spiderman among her favorites.

Aspen also has a fascination with card tricks. She will watch videos online, learn them and show them to her family.

Her dexterity and visual concentration has allowed her to flourish into other fields, such as shop classes.

“It’s kind of acceptable for her to be focused on her own thing,” Christina said.

Lakewood beats Cedarcrest

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood girls basketball team improved to 2-4 defeating Cedarcrest 51-40 Dec. 20.

It was a tightly contested game in the first half, but the Cougars stayed consistent in rhythm but adjusted their offense and defense to control the remaining half.

“We needed to be the same team in both halves,” coach Chris Walster said.

Lakewood found itself down a point in the first quarter having to rally from an early run from Cedarcrest.

“We stepped up our game,” junior Emily Senyitko said. “If we can beat these guys, that would be a shocker.”

With Lakewood ahead by just one point after halftime, Walster sought to change

TRIBES FROM Page 7 beauty of our rich lands providing all that we needed to subsist and thrive. Our youth need to hear the story of their ancestors. The Tulalip History Project will be a vital piece to educating not only our young ones but for all of us who call this area “God’s Country.”

Why would we want to live anywhere else? The rain, the rivers, the green, and yes, the sunshine too. It provides us with a piece of heaven on earth, and we are all fortunate to be a part of our beautiful Snohomish County. The Tulalip History Project will tell a story of a proud people. And not like 2014, it will tell a story of sorrow and heartache, but ultimately, one of healing.

The Tulalip Tribes continue to expand upon our efforts to diversify our business enterprises. As we are always exploring potential

Lakewood’s game plan from outside shooting to inside work.

The Cougars also utilized zone defense to disrupt Cedarcrest’s perimeter shooting, Walster said, and the girls were able to steals.

“We hustled more in the second half,” Senyitko said.

“As we worked harder on defense, we would get more steals and our offense will come easier.”

It helped that Senyitko scored 14 points in the game, but it also helped when they were able to bring 5-foot-9 junior Marissa Blair to the free throw line in the second half, thanks to Senyitko’s passing and ball handling, Walster said.

“Blair is hard to stop when she gets going,” Walster said.

From there, Blair was able to score nine of 11 total points. Blair also led the team in rebounds securing 13. opportunities to enhance the lives of our members we are considering several proposals that could prove to be real game-changers. While they may not materialize in 2015, we will continue with our philosophy of research and development. We realize of course that our business development is not only a benefit to our Tulalip members but also to our neighbors in Marysville and all of Snohomish County.

Our 3,500 employees, many of whom are non-Tulalip, is a testament to the past successes of the Tulalip Tribes.

Our future successes will be your success too. We will share in this together.

We at the Tulalip Tribes wish the best for all of you, with wishes of love and happiness in this New Year just around the corner. Tulalip is our heaven on earth, and may your heaven on earth be in your back yards and sense of family. Farewell 2014 and a big huge welcome to 2015.

“We were looking more inside to draw fouls from the outside,” Senyitko said.

“We are more of an outside shooting team usually.”

The Cougars were able to outscore Cedarcrest 13-7 and 14-7 in the third and fourth quarters.

“Once we score we get excited and start to score more,” Senyitko said.

Though only 5-foot4, Senyitko was accurate behind the paint, sinking three 3-point goals.

“In practice I just do my routine over and over again, and have the same rhythm in every shot,” she said.

The world lost one of its sweetest, funniest, and most gentle souls with the sudden and very unexpected passing of Ray A Harding on Dec 14th, 2014. While attending the Seahawks game with his family Ray suffered an embolism to his otherwise very healthy loving heart.

Ray was born August 28, 1926 in Walla Walla, WA to Henry and Emma Harding.

Ray was preceded in death by his loving wife Beverly and his son Jerry.

Ray will be greatly missed by his brother Alvin Harding of Walla Walla, WA; Daughter in law, Rietta Harding of Ellensburg, WA; Daughters Janice (Jerry) Funden of Marysville, WA, Lynda (David) Jones of Marysville, WA, and Kristine (Michael) Gray of Waterville, WA; 13 grandchildren; and 13 greatgrand children.

Ray A Harding August 26, 1926 — December 14, 2014

Ray sp ent h is childhood in Walla Walla, Washington where he began his life long commitment of serving others while still in high school by joining the ROTC. As a senior, Ray served as captain of an ROTC company and was awarded the Outstanding Officer medal. After graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Naval Air Program serving as a member of the PBY squadron PBS 91. Following his discharge in 1946, he enrolled at Pacific Lutheran University and earned his Bachelor’s Degree.

Ray was a long time active V F W member where his leadership and friendship will be greatly missed. He was a passionate 12th man Seahawk fan, and avid hunter and fisherman; a love he shared with ma ny f r iends a nd family members. Ray

Pokemon game brings generations together in Marysville

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Pokémon started as a gaming franchise in the late 1990s, and in the decades since, multiple generations of parents and children have taken up the game, sometimes together.

Wandering Havoc Games in Marysville has hosted four citywide championships. Dec. 13 marked 9-year-old Andy Lienesch’s first city tournament, but he and his mom, Marysville’s Heather Ross, have been coming to Wandering Havoc for the past

couple of months for Thursday league nights. Andy was inspired to research the card game after he fell in love with the video game through his dad, and Heather took up playing to spend more time with her son.

“Along the way, I’ve gained new experiences and new friendships in real life,” Andy said.

Heather added: “I’ve grown to love the strategy aspect of it.

Even if you’ve been playing for a long time, you can still learn new things. It blows me away.”

Mousa Abdulaziz is 27 now, but he was 13 when the Pokémon

cartoon caught his eye. Between his school friends taking up the hobby, and receiving a pack of cards for his birthday that year, he was hooked.

“The characters, the strategy and the camaraderie all made it super fun,” Abdulaziz said. “The Thursday night sessions are great for testing your decks and making sure they’ll work before you get into big league play.”

Kris Arocha, one of the sales associates at Wandering Havoc, credited the annual city tournaments with bringing in more than 70 players that day, the larg-

est number yet, with an average of 10 players stopping by every Thursday.

“We get a lot of people we don’t usually see here,” Arocha said. “It introduces a lot of folks to the store, and allows them to make bonds that make them want to come back.”

Tournament organizer David Nelson, who’s supervised the city championships for years, spotted players from Spokane, British Columbia and even Missouri. He estimated that the youngest was 7, while the oldest was a father in his mid-40s.

“It takes a lot of work to get into the world championships, but it has become easier, so more people see it as an attainable goal,” said Nelson, who explained that players are divided into age categories of “juniors” for 10 and younger, “seniors” for 11-14 and “masters” for 15 and older. “My son started playing when he was six, and he’s twenty now.

“The basic mechanics are simple enough for any child to pick up, but the interactions of the cards are what keep their interest,” he added. “Every game is different.”

Bailey is a lovely little girl who would be great with kids 8 and up.

Bailey is VERY food motivated so may have a tendency to want to 'counter surf' so food needs to be kept in a safe place while she learns! Bailey is very territorial about her house with other animals.

She can not live with other dogs or cats no exceptions.

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.

To m a k e a f i r e w o o d complaint, call 360-9021857. agr.wa.gov/inspection/ WeightsMeasures/Fire woodinformation.aspx agr.wa.gov/inspection/WeightsMeasures/Firewoodinformation.aspx
