M’ville fire chief retires after 42 years with agency

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — Despite 42 years in the fire service, and 21 years as the fire chief of Marysville, Greg Corn has no real reason for retiring, other than just feeling like it’s time for a change.

“I’d hoped we could get the

regional fire authority done before I left, but there have been delays, and I’d already set the date for my retirement,” Corn said. “What I’ll miss most is all the people I’ve worked with over the years. I loved coming into work every day.”

Corn has loved his job even though he wasn’t inspired to

become a volunteer firefighter out of any sort of lifelong passion for the fire service. Instead, he simply responded to a call for volunteers when he was 20. But he quickly came to love the profession.

“There haven’t been too many negatives,” Corn said. “Of course, there have been hard times, espe-

cially when we’ve responded to critical incidents or lost firefighters, but we know that a component of responding to trauma calls is tragedy.”

A tribute to Oso

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON – There is no mayor school, but even if there was it wouldn’t teach how to handle something as huge as the Oso slide.

Those things just don’t happen.

But it did, here, a year ago.

Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert was thrust into that position. The natural disaster that killed 43 people put her in the unnatural position of dealing with death and destruction, along with pressure from the media, government and social service agencies.

Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert stands next to one of the 43 trees planted by family members of each of the victims who died in the Oso slide.

From the start, she was impressed with all the people who wanted to help – “not to be recognized, but out of human kindness. That made me more emotional. We don’t express ourselves enough for the greater good.”

Her experience as the leader of the Arlington Fly-In kept the task from overwhelming her. With the fly-in she has had to deal with fatal accidents, death notifications, quickly coming up with decisions on multiple problems and dealing with up to 500 volunteers a year.

She would be asked to draw from

that experience and do even more.

What’s ahead?

Instead of looking back, Tolbert is focused on what’s going on now, and looking ahead.

There’s a lot still to be done for the families of victims. Even though the landslide was designated a natural disaster, the amount of money families can receive is $30,000, Tolbert said. When you’ve lost everything, that doesn’t cover much in moving expenses and starting over again.

Plus, many of the families are still having to pay for their old homes,

even though they are buried under mounds of dirt.

Social services groups have been meeting weekly from the start to make sure they are not duplicating efforts. And people are still coming out of the woodwork, finally able to seek help. “There are unmet needs spiritually and in mental health,” Tolbert said.

Other efforts also are under way.

An attempt is being made to come up with higher education money for children of victims, for example.

CHIEF FROM Page 1 Corn’s watch, and none were duty-related.

They were cancer, a plane accident and a heart attack. Corn emphasized, however, that the fire district still feels those losses intensely.

Corn has seen the Marysville Fire Department and Snohomish County Fire District 12 merge into the Marysville Fire District, which then took over Marysville paramedic services from Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington.

“We also built two new fire stations without the need for additional funds from the taxpayers,” Corn said. “We just saved our money for big expenditures. That’s how we purchased apparatus without going out to bond, by being fiscally responsible.”

Corn is quick to share credit for the district’s success not only with its personnel, but also the 25 board members, three city administrators and three mayors he’s worked with.

Curl expects all of his students to pursue some form of education after high school, whether it’s a university, community college, vocational training or technical school.

To help students succeed, he pledged that next year’s ninth-graders would meet with upperclassmen two Wednesdays each month to receive academic tips.

Red Cross helps many slide victims

By Times staff

ARLINGTON – The Red Cross has helped victims of the Oso slide in a variety of ways this past year, including housing needs for Kris and LoAnna Langton and Suzan Andrews.

And it is still helping, as the Red Cross will be supplying counselors to talk with anyone who deals with emotional problems at the Oso Memorial Sunday, March 22. Andrews, a mother of three, had her

LAKEWOOD — “It reminds me of Everett High School,” Elda Mercado said, as she looked at plans for the new Lakewood High School. “There’s lots of daylight.”

“And construction on the new high school will be done by the time your boy starts school there,” Stephen Black of McGranahan Architects told Mercado at the March 17 school district open house.

Black said this summer would mark the start of construction on the high school’s parking lots and storm-water detention systems. By next spring, he predicted construction would begin on the main building.

“And this building will stay in place?”

Mercado asked Black. Black replied: “The new high school is being built just south of here, where the fields are right now.”

Arlington, Oso, Darrington and the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe received the Medal of Valor March 18 for heroism demonstrated by residents in response to the deadly landslide last March.

Gov. Jay Inslee presented the awards to representatives of the communities during a joint session of the state House and Senate.

The awards were accepted by Fire Chief Willy Harper on behalf of Oso, volunteer Quinn Nations for Darrington, Arlington High school student Brantly Stupey for Arlington and volunteer firefighter Kevin Lenon for the Sauk-Suiattle Tribe.

“It is very humbling to be here on behalf of the community,” Harper said before the ceremony.

Since its establishment in 2000, the Medal of Valor has only been given to eight people with the last awarded in 2007.

Wednesday marked the first time the state honored communities and a tribe with a Medal of Valor. It took a new law to do it because until this year only individuals

“My husband and I had to drive by the disaster site every time we went to work,” she said. The family closed on a new home in Arlington in September, thanks in part to a down payment from the Red Cross. Even though the tragedy was a year ago, for the Langtons it’s still very real. “Our life was turned upside down,” she said. “For so many people that disaster was in the past. For us, it’s still part of our present.

The Langtons lost their home and most of their possessions. The Red Cross has helped with heating their new rental, funds for clothes and replacing work tools.

The cost of moving and furnishings depleted their funds, so the Red Cross has helped them obtain financial stability.

“It’s been nearly a year, but now things are tougher, we are struggling more,” she said. LoAnna saved her four children, their playmates, a neighbor and an aunt while her husband was honored as a Red Cross hero for trudg-

In the past year, The Red Cross has opened 675 cases, including 60 with the greatest needs who receive one-on-one help with personal recovery plans. Other things the Red Cross has done include: • The Red Cross has raised nearly $4.8 million for slide victims, of which $3.7 million has been spent on emergency relief and recovery efforts. The rest will be spent on recovery and preparedness needs.

• Of the money spent, almost $1.2 million has gone to disaster preparedness and community building; $1.04 million to individual planning and assistance; $959,000 to physical and mental health services; and $542,000 for emergency food, shelter and relief.

• Disaster preparedness kits including weather radios, flashlights, batteries and emergency safety information will be distributed to 500 households.

• $25,000 was given to the Arlington Food Bank as increased need after the disaster remains high.

Cyclists pay tribute to Oso victims on annual ride

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — Responders who did everything from finding remains to caring for rescue dogs during the tragic Oso slide last year returned to the site last weekend.

It was a solemn occasion for many of them. But they wanted to honor the 43 people who lost their lives. As part of the McClinchy Mile bike ride, they planned to travel from Arlington to Darrington, riding past the destruction at Oso. Tonya Christoffersen was one of the riders who gathered at the starting point at Haller Middle School.

“I was struck by the overwhelming need and sheer devastation,” Christoffersen said, remembering her involvement last year. “As a hiker, I somewhat understood the damage, but the loss of life was almost surreal in its scope.”

Christoffersen, who has a reputation for taking part in various volunteer activities, found herself coordinating the distribution of meals and supplies to responders to the March 22 slide last year, through the National Guard, the American Legion and Helping Hands stores. While she hadn’t been able to venture out to the site of the slide in its immediate aftermath, she found time to visit it a couple of weeks ago.

“It’s overwhelming, but I’m thrilled

OSO FROM Page 1 Tolbert said she and Darrington Mayor Dan Rankin are closer than ever. “He’s like a brother now.”

They are working on a vision to rebuild the Stilly Valley, including an economic development plan.

Anniversary memorial A memorial is taking place March 22 at the site of the Oso landslide. The communities have been cautious about planning it on the first-year anniversary of the tragedy. The families of victims have been very involved, wanting to keep it simple and subdued.

“Families recover differently.

Sensitivity is still here,” the mayor said. “For many it’s too painful to come. The remembrance is another benchmark of a loss so unbearable. It’s one more step in the healing cycle where we have more good days than bad.”

Medal of Valor Also this week, the city of Arlington received a Medal of Valor from lawmakers in Olympia.

An “unsung hero” received the award for the city, Brantly Stupey, 14. Tolbert said she wanted to find someone no one has talked about – a volunteer rather than someone who was doing their job.

Because the landslide happened during spring break, one thing she noticed was a lot of young people helping. She wanted to honor them by picking Brantly,

“By taking our bikes through the scene of this tragedy, we hope to make something good out of it.”

Arel Solie of Olympia that people haven’t forgotten,” Christoffersen said.

Nathan Snyder braved the pouring down rain March 14 to come out from Federal Way. As a National Guardsman, his unit was one of the first to be sent east of the slide, while it was still blocking Highway 530, which added hours to their travels in both directions. Snyder has grim memories of the last time he was there. “We were still pulling bodies out,” he said.

Snyder said he was hoping for a much more positive experience on the bike ride. “I’m really excited to see the difference,” he said.

Paige Beck and Arel Solie both hail from Olympia, and while they work for different state agencies, they were both tapped to respond to the slide and operated out of Arlington.

As they prepped their bikes in the muddy school parking lot, Beck recalled how she’d helped provide veterinary care for the search and rescue dogs through the Department of Agriculture, while Solie had assisted in coordinating law enforcement efforts.

who had a friend who died in the tragedy. Brantly helped a lot at the Red Cross shelter at Post Middle School, where he was student body president. He also wrote letters to the president and governor asking for help. “He’s a thoughtful young man,” Tolbert said. “He gave a rock star speech.”

Just as hard as picking the recipient was picking the 35 Arlington people who could attend. “We could have invited 3500,” she said.

Tolbert was proud of the humility shown by those who went. The state shined a light on us and said how remarkable we were to pull together, she said. “But the communities here think that’s normal.” ` Looking back Tolbert was at Legion Park in Arlington that Saturday morning at the Relay for Life cancer fundraiser when she heard sirens on Highway 9. “A lot of them,” she said. Soon after she heard helicopters. She then heard about the landslide, so she helped set up the emergency center at City Hall.

They heard houses were demolished and that people were being taken to hospitals. All city staff had taken disaster training so they filled their roles.

“Things not in the (disaster) plan became my job,” Tolbert said.

She became involved in a plan in case a second disaster hit.

There was fear that flooding could send a 20-foot wall of water into Arlington. She then got involved helping people find places to stay as 110 agencies at one point were

Beck said it was tough being back.

“After the first twenty-four hours, we’d found remains, so we had a silent memorial,” Beck said.

She said she wasn’t looking forward to riding by the slide area. “It’s going to be hard to go back there,” Beck said.

Solie said they wanted to do something positive, hoping for some healing. “We chose this ride because it will help the community rebuild,” she said. “By taking our bikes through the scene of this tragedy, we hope to make something good out of it.”

Seattle’s Natasha Lozano was one of the last crew deployed to the scene

by AmeriCorps, but her two weeks still managed to run her ragged. She worked 16-hour days distributing walkie-talkies and sleeping bags, as well as coordinating laundry services.

“I treasured the camaraderie,” Lozano said, as she donned her bike helmet. “We all had dinner in the same tent.” Lozano echoed her fellow responders’ comments about how emotionally moving it was to see the slide zone, with random objects such as a child’s swing set appearing in the middle of terrain where all development was otherwise wiped out.

She recalled the positive things people did to help. “School kids wrote us letters, so I put those in people’s lunches,” Lozano said. “They helped cheer us up, when we were standing in five feet of mud.”

“We needed some good news but there wasn’t any.

I had to stay strong for them. But when I went to my car I cried.”

Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert in town. Within the first few days she also called all of the wives of first responders to tell them what important jobs their husbands were doing. Because of all the organizing and meetings, it was a few days before the mayor saw the disaster in person. “I was totally blown away,” she said. “Pictures on TV didn’t do it justice. It rocked me to my core. Everything was gray with mud and muck, no green.” Tolbert said briefings from rescue personnel at the Red Cross shelter were emotional. “Everyone wanted to stay abreast of what happened.” She heard those in the shelter continue to ask, “Please, did you find …?”

One day the mayor saw a new woman in the shelter. Tolbert found out she was the widow of Ron deQuilettes. He was from out of the area, helping a friend put in a hot water heater when the landslide hit. Four other women had similar stories. “I have great compassion for them,” Tolbert said.

She recalled another situation where Steven Hadaway’s brothers were searching for him daily. But he wasn’t found for weeks. One day, the bell rang and everyone

stopped, as was the custom when a body was found. One of the brothers, covered in mud, said, “I think that’s my brother they found.” He was right.

It is surreal when going through such a disaster. But after the initial shock, people often break down.

For Tolbert, that came about five days after the slide. She was at the Red Cross shelter, like she was most nights. “It was a painful night. Some parents came in from out of town who lost their kids.

Their technical questions blew my mind. We needed some good news, and there wasn’t any. I had to stay strong for them. But when I went to my car I cried.”

While the mayor told many stories that broke her heart, sadness isn’t the only emotion she associates with the slide. The response by the community, and the nation, gave her a lot of pride. “It tugged at the heart strings.”

People gave money and opened their homes. Clothes and furniture were donated, “but we were in no condition to accept anything yet,” until a man donated the use of a warehouse, she said. “The good angels came out.”

President’s visit Tolbert never thought she would meet a president, especially in the basement of a community center, leaning up against dog food. But that is exactly how she met President Obama.

“He asked us if we had everything we need, how our people are faring and how the agencies

See the special supplement on the Oso disaster in today’s paper. such as FEMA are working for us,” she said of the president’s visit last April.

He had been briefed well on the first-responders, knowing what some of them had done. He gave a few a presidential coin. He met with the victims’ families in private, spending time with each one, not being in a hurry. He listened to their stories about the person they lost. And if they couldn’t talk, he held them, she said.

Tolbert said Obama was personable and genuine, but that changed when he got in front of the cameras at the press conference. Still, overall, she was impressed. “When we needed resources, he got them here,” she said. The president coming to town was huge. The mayor couldn’t believe the amount of preparation the Secret Service put in, studying all of the buildings and streets and planning different routes. “It’s like we stopped grieving for a day,” she said. “There was so much pride.”

Politics can be polarizing in the Stillaguamish Valley, but on that day people lined the president’s route with signs that were all positive. “There was nothing about politics that day.” Tolbert is proud of how government handled the disaster. “Government was at its best. Red tape was cut. We could just hand victims cash. The only concern was how do we get what we need?” she said.

IN OUR VIEW

Fix roads first before growth Has anyone noticed the traffic problem at Smokey Point? We hope so. Dozens of businesses have gone in there in the past decade. While there have been road improvements, obviously they have not been enough to avoid gridlock almost daily. That trend needs to end.

Before a business can even start building, studies are done on how it will affect the area, such as increased traffic. The business might have to help pay to widen a street or put in a traffic light.

But those requirements just aren’t solving the problem anymore. Gridlock has happened all along the Interstate 5 corridor from Olympia to Marysville because of growth being allowed to happen without the proper infrastructure in place. And we don’t seem to learn as we continue to allow more developments without the needed mitigation.

While we have no problem with being business friendly, we also think businesses and builders should be community friendly. People won’t want to live and work here anymore if the traffic woes get any worse. Many of us moved to Arlington and Marysville because it didn’t have the traffic problems of the more-urban areas to the south.

We bring this up because Senate Bill 5761 would give businesses tax breaks for locating around Arlington Municipal Airport. It has the support of Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and Arlington Mayor Barbara Tolbert, among many others. The 1,200 acres includes 400 at the airport and 800 between 128th and 164th.

We certainly support the concept of bringing high-paying jobs to the area. And providing tax breaks so the area can be competitive in attracting such businesses makes sense. A business that hires 25 people or more at $18 an hour or more for 10 years would not have to pay property taxes on improvements, such as the building itself, if the bill passes. It would still have to pay taxes on the land.

But don’t forget the little people when dealing with all this big money. We have to deal with all this mess daily.

The least that should happen is a widening of 172nd before any more growth occurs around the airport.

Will that happen? We hope so.

Businesses raised funds and sacrificed time and resources to give needed assistance.

I had the privilege of working Cabela’s hot dog stand with a number of other employees. Geez, we cooked so many hot dogs that I smelled hot dogs for three days.

We had so many people donate sizable checks for the cause. One man handed over a check for $3,000 and would not even take a hot dog. But the most heart-warming donations came from small children who tearfully reached into their pockets or little purses to donate what change they had. I did not see one person entering or leaving Cabela’s that day that did not make a donation. Large or small, it didn’t matter. Their hearts were into doing what they could to help.

My hat goes off to the staff at Cascade Valley Hospital in Arlington. That facility mobilized immediately and was taking in victims of the slide. They were mostly prepared by the time the first aid car or helicopter landed there. What an honor it was to see this excellent group of employees, doctors, nurses, aides, administrators and volunteers work with a high degree of compassion and professionalism. They were able to retrain their own emotions to care for those who needed them most. I salute the Stillaguamish and Tulalip tribes for rendering immediate financial aid.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Talk to airport, “But, is it really necessary to U.S. a melting pot, don’t spread rumors cause dissension and chaos not a salad bowl

It seems to me there has been a lot of turmoil around the airport lately.

A very small group of disgruntled tenants have created a lot of unnecessary fuss that has had airport staff running in circles for weeks.

Thousands and thousands of dollars’ worth of staff time has been dedicated to answering unsubstantiated rumor and innuendo, State Auditor requests, allegations made to the FAA and multiple public records requests.

While all of these unnecessary tasks are within a citizen’s right to request, I don’t believe it is what the vast majority of our airport tenants want us to spend their tax dollars on, when this same time and money could be going to projects that enhance our airport and project a positive image.

The city of Arlington pays the state to have their auditors go over our books, processes, and procedures every year. Sometimes an issue comes up, often times it does not.

This is one of the checks and balances the city of Arlington and the airport impose upon themselves to

when we already have these checks and balances in place? I don’t think so.”

ensure we’re doing what we’re supposed to do. An independent third party review gives us the guidance we need to make sure we are complying with a very complex regulatory environment.

As some of you know, there was an exit interview with the state auditors on Monday. We looked forward to that opportunity to discuss and correct any items that turned up. That’s why we pay them.

But, is it really necessary to cause dissension and chaos when we already have these checks and balances in place? I don’t think so. In fact, solving airport issues is what staff gets paid to do.

We are here to serve the public and our airport tenants. There are many diverse businesses here at the airport that have been here for many years working in harmony. I see no reason this can’t continue. They are what make our airport unique, vibrant and financially stable. So, if you have an issue, bring it to us and we’ll do our best to correct it.

If you’ve got an axe to grind, please leave it at home.

Are we a “salad bowl” or a “melting pot?” (Or, the unintended consequences of diversity.)

A “melting pot” allows ingredients from vastly different backgrounds to coalesce to form a brand new result.

In the case of America, the country welcomed people from all over the world to come to the country legally and eventually become “Americans” with all the benefits that American citizens enjoy.

Conversely, a “salad bowl” keeps all the various ingredients in their original form, and together it becomes for lack of a better word a “salad.” All its parts are totally identifiable and have not changed or adapted.

Unfortunately, the idea of the American “melting pot” has taken a back seat to the newer “salad bowl” aka diversity where people from different backgrounds can gain entrance, legally or illegally, and maintain and even flaunt their specific heritage at the expense of every other heritage.

Never is the idea to become an American, but it is to become a (fill in the blank) hyphenated American making sure to let others know that differences matter more than “melting” into an American.

Some of these groups feel they are entitled to their own quasi countries within the borders of America.

This has actually pitted one

There is less cohesion among Americans, as each group competes and refuses to do what would benefit the whole (meaning all Americans).

It has become more important to establish each individual cultural/ legal heritage within the borders of the world’s most exceptional country than to become one of those exceptional Americans!

How many Americans, hyphenated or otherwise, actually get in a boat to go to another country?

No other country has offered more opportunity, success or failure to as many people as this unique, exceptional experiment called America.

So, if one cares about America one has to fight against continuing to worship the differences aka ‘diversity’ and instead focus on our similarities.

to help the victims, families and first responders. And, of course, the people of all our communities rallied with their own resources. Most rallied in prayer, and many participated in vigils. These are just a few acts of altruism and compassion I observed and experienced. There were many more.

Communities are not defined by their homes and buildings.

Communities are defined by the people who live there. It is times like the Oso landslide and the Marysville-Pilchuck disaster that bring out the true nature of who we are. So, while we continue to grieve from the loss, I invite us all to celebrate the wonderful nature of our friends, families and neighbors. We really are blessed to live, work and play here. And I want to thank you all for allowing me to be a part of this phenomenal little corner of the world.

Home destroyed

MARYSVILLE – A residential fire caused an estimated $350,000 in damage to a home in the 3900 block of Rose Road March 19.

At 5:08 a.m. Marysville Fire District was dispatched to the blaze, arriving eight minutes later. The firstarriving officer reported a residential structure with smoke and fire visible.

At the height of the incident more than 24 firefighters battled the blaze, with aid provided by Tulalip Bay, Silvana and the North County Regional Fire Authority.

Historic aircraft

ARLINGTON – The Seattle World Cruiser Project has recently moved to the Arlington Municipal Airport.

The Seattle II is a fullscale, flying reproduction of the first aircraft to circumnavigate the globe-the 1924 Douglas World Cruiser.

The Seattle World Cruiser Association is a nonprofit that provides local history programs and artifacts that focus on aviation and related technologies in the Northwest.

Other airport news was in its recent newsletter: • During the Oso memorial service Sunday, March 22, during the morning there will be a no-fly zone around that area.

• The airport restaurant will reopen just in time for summer.

State champs

ARLINGTON – The best is the last for Jane Joselow.

The retired teacher has been coaching Arlington High School’s Hi-Q team for 24 years, along with Ben Mendro. She was “hungry for the win” at the state championships March 17 because this season is her last. Her team filled her up with happiness, claiming the state crown over threetime defending champion Archbishop Murphy and the Monroe Bearcats. The Wildcats beat the other two teams last year.

“I’m floating on air,” Joselow said. “I wanted so badly to see what nationals were like.” That wish will come true, too, as the Eagles will participate at nationals April 16. That online competition will be against teams from Pennsylvania, Wisconsin and Alabama.

Nick Mendro, Quinn James, James Piscioneri, Dakota Brenner, K.J. Mullin, Felix Neeleman and Hannah Martian are on the team.

M’ville to vote on street widening, water plant

By STEVE POWELL spowell@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE – The Marysville City Council will vote on two major projects at its 7 p.m. meeting March 23 at City Hall. One involves widening Fourth and the other making the city more water independent.

The State Avenue Corridor Improvement project from 116th to 136th streets NE will widen the road from three to five lanes. The bid is expected to be around $4 million with work starting in late April and being done about the end of the year.

Mayor Jon Nehring doesn’t expect a traffic nightmare because underground utility work already has been done, and the two new lanes will be added on the east side of exist-

ing lanes. So the loss will be just one lanes. “There’s some inconvenience with all construction,” he said.

Getting traffic signal poles could delay the project. “There’s a lack of supply and huge demand,” the mayor said, adding that could add two months to the project.

The other project involves the Sunnyside Well Treatment Facility. The cost could be up to $4.9 million.

Nehring expects construction to start in April and take a year. It would increase the city’s water capacity from six to nine million gallons. The mayor said the city needs 11 million during peak periods.

“So, we will be able to cover our own water for a good portion of the year,” he said, adding the city will

continue to buy water from Everett if it has to.

Nehring said the cost of water is going up.

“It will allow us to maintain our rates,” he said, adding 2 percent increases would be common, rather than the 15 percent spikes other cities are seeing.

The city wants to build a 6,900-square-foot, twostory water treatment plant along 71st Avenue near two city wells. The plant would filtrate minor levels of iron and manganese from the water. The overall goal is for the city to become selfreliant in its water system.

MARYSVILLE – Using positive discipline was one of many issues discussed at the recent Marysville School Board meeting.

Executive director of learning and teaching Cinco Delgado talked about Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports.

Delgado said it takes a mind shift for a staff to support it.

“In my era it (discipline) was punishment based,” he said. “This focuses on positive expectations.”

Superintendent Becky Berg said, “It’s not a hard sell once you see the research.”

ARLINGTON — A man dressed only in his underwear tried to break into Haller Middle School and some neighboring houses before being taken into custody after a brief scuffle March 12.

Arlington police received multiple 911 calls reporting that a nearly naked man had attempted to enter homes in the area around the campus.

He then climbed the fence around to the middle school and gained entry into the south side of the school at around 10:30 a.m., Arlington police spokeswoman Kristin Banfield said. The school’s principal and janitor were able to detain the man in a hallway between the gym and kitchen until police arrived, Banfield said.

The middle school was placed in lockdown for about 20 minutes.

MARYSVILLE – Value Village is in the business of receiving. Without donations of clothes and other items it wouldn’t survive.

But now it also is in the business of giving. If items don’t sell within a month, Value Village is donating them to local nonprofits.

Retail sales manager Desiree Orrantia said she has worked for the company for nine years, and she’s never been prouder.

“I’m happy the company is going this way,” she said.

Organizations involved in the new Give to Get program include Kloz 4 Kidz,

“We keep it in our community and take care of our community.”

Value Village’s Randa Weidkamp NOAH, WIC, the Veterans Administration Hospital and newcomer Pregnancy Aid. Books are given to local schools. “We spread it out to different organizations,” Orrantia said.

Pregnancy Aid director Angel Metcalf said the donations are top-notch.

“We don’t even have to wash a thing,” she said, adding they pick up the donations about every three weeks.

“Some of it is brand new.”

Pregnancy Aid, which

has 400 clients each with one to 12 kids, then gives away the clothes to those in need.

“All of our services are free,” Metcalf said, adding within two weeks the donations are gone.

Value Village store manager Randa Weidkamp said the business donates to 15 local groups.

“It’s a win-win,” she said.

“We keep it in our community and take care of our community.”

Weidkamp said the store gets 800 items of baby clothes a day, and they don’t always “find the right customer.”

“We have an abundance of items, and we can give back,” she said. “We can help those families that need it.”

MG senior shines as Strawberry Festival queen

BY KIRK BOXLEITNER kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — It was a night devoted to the theme of “Buried Treasure: Let It Shine.”

The Mar ysville Strawberry Festival crowned Senior Royalty princesses Marina Ciferri and Cassie Coate, before crowning Savannah Perkins as queen at the April Friesner Memorial Royalty Scholarship Pageant March 14.

Cassie, a junior at Marysville-Pilchuck High School, was one of the pageant’s junior princesses in 2010. She was joined by two other girls onstage for a choreographed cheer dance as her talent, and devoted her speech to recommending that people try out new things.

“You won’t discover what could be your favorite new activity, talent or friend if you stay in your comfort zone,” Cassie said. “Do what you love, and don’t settle until you do.”

When asked what qualities make women great leaders, Cassie credited

women with being caring and compassionate.

“They’ll see who’s struggling and give them extra help,” Cassie said. “They’re flexible enough to adjust their schedules to help others.”

Marina demonstrated first aid techniques with a CPR dummy for her talent. A junior at the BioMed Academy at Marysville Getchell High School, her speech touted loved ones and community as inspirations.

“An idea that can change the world is a treasure, as are friends, family and the memories and experiences you gain from them,” Marina said. “Every year, this pageant lets Marysville shine and brings the community together.”

When asked whether social media has helped or hindered society, Marina admitted it’s probably done both.

“I use social media every day,” Marina said. “It lets me connect with friends I haven’t seen since grade school, but it also makes cyber-bullying hard to stop.”

State gives Arlington clean audit ARLINGTON — The city of Arlington has received a clean financial audit for the 2013 fiscal year from the state auditor’s office.

The report cited the city’s focus on building its reserves and working toward full financial stability. The accountability audit reviewed conflict of interest compliance, cash handling, and inventory and financial controls at the Arlington airport.

The audit found no conflicts of interest, but did note a few areas that needed improvement, expressing concerns over internal controls at the airport.

Kristin Banfield, director of human resources and communications for the city, explained that the auditor addressed the appearance of a conflict of interest involving Mayor Barbara Tolbert, who serves as executive director of the Arlington Fly-In. “The auditor did not find a conflict of interest, and reminded the city of its obligation to prevent such occurrences,” Banfield said.

“The audit report discusses situations that may give an appearance of a conflict, but this is a legal standard and not a requirement of state law.”

Savannah, a senior at Marysville Getchell, showed off her flair for journalism by donning a trench coat and fedora, and narrating a slideshow profiling five Marysville and Tulalip residents, in the wake of last fall’s school shooting at M-P. “You are all Marysville,” Savannah told her audience, before she recounted how her parents had returned to their hometown when she was a baby.

As a girl, she spent count-

less hours exploring the estuary, whose wildlife inhabitants she likened to a community and a family.

“Each Marysville citizen has a different job, but we all come together to create something we could never achieve on our own,” Savannah said. “We persevere when we stand together.”

When asked how much of a part incentives should play in charitable giving, Savannah acknowledged,

“You’d like to get something out of it as well, but as long as it benefits others, you’ll benefit as well, which is all the incentive I need.”

While Cassie had so much fun as a junior princess that she wanted to give being a senior princess a shot, Marina saw it as a way to connect with her community. Both Marina and Savannah were inspired by the royalty they’d seen at previous Strawberry Festivals.

“I’m excited to go traveling,” Marina said.

Savannah added: “I’m looking forward to meeting new people.”

“I want to meet new people and become a family with my fellow royalty,” Cassie said..

Brooke Bontrager and Ada Garza of the 10th Street School joined fellow sixthgrader Zinead Morales of Marysville Middle School in being crowned Junior Royalty princesses.

Cougs win debut

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontimes.com

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood senior captains Haley Malakowski and Tara Barrio showed no jitters in the Cougars season-opening softball game.

Malakowski pitched a one-hit game in her debut and also hit a home run.

“It was a little nerve racking,” Malakowski said. “But I calmed my nerves down.”

Barrio, a third baseman, hit a homer in the first inning and ended it with a grand slam.

“I just didn’t think about it,” Barrio said. “I calmed myself down and took deep breaths.”

Lakewood blanked Shorecrest 10-0 in five innings March 16 in a nonleague game.

The Cougars played a solid game overall with no errors.

“For the first game that was really good,” Barrio said. “And everyone was really focused, which is more awesome.”

“I felt we were prepared,” Lakewood coach Travis Boortz said. “We had two weeks of practice and got the jitters out.”

Both captains said they are looking forward to leading their team.

“I’m looking forward to coming out as a family and making it to districts and state,” Malakowski said.

Barrio and Malakowski see their leadership as a foundation of the team’s success. Their roles as captains are to bring cohesion, positivity and energy to the unit, Malakowski said.

The two are best friends as well, which helps their leadership.

“We can read each other really well,” Barrio said.

“We expect big things out of them,” Boortz said. “It’s good when they come with their game.”

Boortz has high expectations for the veteran team.

“We got a tough league, but we have some good players,” Boortz said. “We want to take it one game at a time but be league champs.”

ARLINGTON — The Eagles were in a precarious situation in the sixth inning ahead 8-7 March 18 against Monroe.

A Bearcat base runner nearly tied it after a hit to right field.

But a relay from Drew Kalahar to second baseman Peter Chung to catcher Garret Wiseman stopped the run.

“It’s tough because Drew was out in rightfield with the sun over the hitter the whole time,” coach Scott Striegel said.

“But they were able to run it down in the gap, make a perfect throw to second base and a perfect throw to home plate and tag him out.”

After losing its season opener to Lake Stevens 10-7, the Eagles found themselves in another unfavorable spot against Monroe down 4-0 in the fourth inning.

“We hadn’t hit a whole lot of balls hard and got kind of unlucky,” Striegle said.

“Their pitcher did a good job at keeping us unbalanced.”

But the Eagles’ luck turned in the later innings when they began finding the ball and getting walks eventually, turning into two runs in the fifth inning and six more in the sixth.

“I don’t think we made any adjustments to be honest,” Striegel said.

“We just hit a couple balls hard, and guys get confident once they see the guy in front of them hit the ball hard.”

Arlington’s Kyle Bayer hit a two-run double in the sixth inning to put the Eagles ahead.

“On Monday against Lake Stevens, we played really well but weren’t able to close it out,” Striegel said.

“I was really proud of the kids picking it up later in this game and getting the win.”

The Eagles 1-1 host Snohomish Monday, March 23.

“We have a lot of young guys, and were trying a lot of them in different positions,” Striegel said.

“So we just have to find out what we got in our non-league games.”

Local teams win and lose

BY BRANDON ADAM badam@arlingtontontimes.com

ARLINGTON — The Arlington baseball team lost its season-opening game to Lake Stevens 10-7 March 16 but improved to 1-1 defeating Monroe 8-7 March 18.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Getchell baseball team improved to 1-1 with a win over Mount Vernon 6-2 March 17.

MG’s Collin Montez pitched four perfect innings and teammate John Clark went 2-for-3 with two RBIs.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood baseball team opened its season with a 13-3 win over Shorecrest March 17 and won its second game 5-2 at Kings March 18. Lakewood is 2-0.

ARLINGTON — Arlington soccer player Sergio Hall scored two goals and teammate Steven Kaponey added one as the Eagles shutout Monroe 3-0 March 17, improving their season to 1-0-1.

MG’s Collin Montez pitches.

Two former professional players will help coach a free baseball clinic for kids ages 6-13 at noon Sunday, March 22, at Cedarcrest Middle School in Marysville.

Also, a softball clinic is planned in Arlington March 28.

In past years, there has been a fee for the Marysville Baseball Association skills camp - but not this year.

Previous camps have been used as community fund-raising events. Last year’s camp raised $3,800 for the Oso Relief Fund.

Players in the fifth annual event will participate in drills including fielding, hitting, catching, pitching, base running, and speed and agility. The camp will be instructed by coaches and players from the 13 and under, 14u, 16u and 18u teams.

The coaches with pro experience include Brent Lillibridge, who played at Jackson High in Mill Creek and then at the University of Washington. He also played infield in the major leagues for six teams from 2008-13. His best year was with the Chicago White Sox in 2011, when he hit .258.

Rick Smith, the city’s police chief, played in the Montreal Expos and California Angels organizations.

The camp is mandatory for Hawks Select players to participate in to teach them the value of giving back.

One of the Hawks Select players, TJ Lamoureux, said he enjoys the camp.

Participants will get a free T-shirt and barbecue lunch. The school is located at 6400 88th St. Meanwhile, the Arlington High School Softball Booster Club is putting on a clinic March 28.

It will be from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the school, 18821 Crown Ridge Blvd. Cost is $45.

The clinic goes on rain or shine, inside or outside, so dress appropriately, organizers say.

Bring a sack lunch or snack and something to drink for the half-hour break. T-shirts will be handed out.

For details call Dan Eng at 206-276-0550.

Marysville puts 10 recycling bins around town to lessen waste

By Globe staff

Recycling station on State.

MARYSVILLE – In an effort to be more “green,” Marysville installed 10 recycling stations around town March 18.

“We want to make it easy for our residents and our visitors to be good stewards of the environment,” Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring said. Recycle sta-

tions will be located at city parks, including Jennings Memorial and Comeford, along the Third Street shopping corridor downtown, at Cedarcrest Golf Course and at the Marysville Library.

Four businesses are sponsoring downtown recycle stations with the 24-gallon recycle bins: American Family Insurance, 606 State

Ave.; Loving Stitches, 306 State; Walgreens, 404 State; and Carr’s Hardware, 1514 3rd St. “These new recycling stations are located along popular walking routes in downtown and in our parks.

All you have to do is look for the blue bins,” the mayor said.

City Public Works crews

will install the stations to reduce the amount of recyclable materials thrown in the garbage.

The city received a twoyear state Department of Ecology grant totaling more than $84,000. The funds helped the city develop a multi-family recycling education and outreach pro-

gram, provide recycling assistance at public events such as the Strawberry Festival, improve public access to recycling and begin a pilot business-recycling program.

Low-cost acupuncture works for some

BY STEVE POWELL spowell@arlingtontimes.com

ARLINGTON – Cole Alexander doesn’t care if his clients think he’s boring.

“I know I’m having a really good day if there’s a lot of snoring,” he joked.

Alexander offers lowcost acupuncture through FreeRange Health at the Stillaguamish Senior Center.

Some clients get so relaxed they fall asleep, but others laugh and talk. The cost is kept to $15 for 50-minute sessions because treatments aren’t done privately. Up to 28 people can be served in the same area.

The goal of the nonprofit is to provide for underserved individuals. A grant from the Tulalip Tribes helps keep costs low.

Alexander said acupuncture is good for whatever ails you. Most of the clients in Arlington are seniors who get help for mobility issues. He said it’s best to book in advance of the Wednesday sessions from 9 a.m. to noon. Clients who just want to feel better can be treated for general health and wellness. Others get more-specific help for pain or arthritis in their shoulders or elsewhere.

“The bread and butter of acupuncture is pain treat-

Acupuncturist Cole Alexander talks with a client at the Stillaguamish Senior Center, left; needles can be stuck in the ear and elsewhere, depending on the ailment. ment,” Alexander said, adding for many seniors it’s an all-day event. “They get out of the house, increase their social interaction, see each other and then stay for lunch.” It’s good for “almost anything: anxiety, stress, insomnia, digestion, hot flashes … It increases your quality of life.”

Alexander said acupuncture is a 3,000-yearold Eastern medicine, and “when it comes to being sick things haven’t changed much.” Acupuncture can be popular for people wanting to lose weight. He said people still need to eat right and exercise, but acupuncture can “even out the cravings” that are brought on by stress and anxiety.

“Don’t expect the needles

to do all the work,” he said.

Using Chinese theory, Alexander said weight gain means there’s a problem with the digestive system.

“The body’s not using food in the best way,” he said, adding it’s then stored and becomes toxic. By helping to even out your emotions, acupuncture can strengthen the digestive process, he said.

Alexander said the process is not painful. It takes 16 acupuncture needles to make one syringe needle, which are big and hollow so medicine can go through.

In acupuncture the needles barely break the skin surface. If there’s any pain, Alexander said just tell him, and he will take it out or adjust it. Patients lie back in

a lounge chair after checking in and “cook” for a half hour. They then should rest for another half hour to get the full effect, he said.

Normala Ram is one of his patients. She has been getting treatments for neck, shoulder, back and breathing issues. “I’m going to stay with it,” she said. “It’s helping a lot.” Sylvia McFadden also is a believer. She has come six times for shoulder and bicep pain. “It’s helped more than other things I’ve tried,” she said.

Barb Condon of Arlington has been coming for 1 1/2 years. She has had back and leg surgeries.

“They didn’t work out that well, so I thought I’d give this a try,” she said.

Condon said her results are amazing. “The pain is

less or even gone,” she said.

Condon said she keeps coming back because there’s always “something else to work on. When you’re older there’s always something.”

She added she has not had much luck with Western medical doctors.

Condon has led an active life. She has shown horses and did lifting in a job at Albertson’s. She also has been in some car wrecks.

Almost 73, she more recently turned an ankle. After receiving a few treatments, the pain went away. “It wasn’t long before I felt better and forgot about it.”

Linda Wright, who grew up in Arlington, said she has had many medical issues since she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1993. “If I wake up,

and I put my foot on the floor it’s a good day,” she said. “So many drugs, so many problems.”

Modern medicine says she is clinically depressed.

“Who wouldn’t be anxious if they had M.S.?” she asked, adding among other benefits acupuncture has made her less anxious.

Wright has been seeing Alexander and fellow acupuncturist Kristan Rutski for about five months.

The most-recent ailment she was treated for was shingles. “It was the most excruciating pain I’ve ever had,” she said. “My chiropractor suggested acupuncture. After three treatments the pain was gone.

“It’s been around thousands of years so why wouldn’t it work?” she said.

Kids learn about fishing at Spring Outdoor Days

kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

TULALIP — It was the first time Allen Vernon of Mill Creek made his own lure.

“Be careful with how hard you press on that hook,” said Buz Bauman, of the Everett Steelhead & Salmon Club as Allen’s father, Ken, watched him finish. “You don’t want to put it through your thumb.”

Allen shares Ken’s love of fishing and camping, especially now that Allen is old enough to be patient and wait for bites.

“As long as the end of his pole is shaking, he’s happy,” Ken Vernon said. “He’s had his swim lessons. He even loves cleaning his catch, just because he loves the blood and guts of it.”

Bauman and fellow club members helped more than two dozen people at the Tulalip Cabela’s make their own lures during the store’s March 14-15 Great Spring

Outdoor Days. He acknowledged their main focus was getting younger fishers like Allen hooked.

“It’s all about the kids,” Bauman said. “We want them to catch fish, so they don’t lose interest in the hobby.”

Fellow club member Carl Rienstra added: “The younger we get them, the more they’ll remember it later on. They might have other hobbies they get more interested in as teenagers, but fishing will always stay at the back of their minds.”

To help ensure that interest, the club invites kids from 5-12 years old to its annual stocked-pond fishing derbies at Jennings Park in Marysville from 8-11 a.m.

May 2, and from 5-14 years old at Twin Lakes County Park in Lakewood from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 16.

Meanwhile, professional tournament angler John Blank provided spring bass tactics for entry-level fish-

ers.

“Bass is not a big fish in Western Washington, so I break down how to be a success in just a few tips, without having to spend tens of thousands of dollars,” Blank said.

Blank reassured novice bass fishers that they only need $30 of tackle as long as they follow the fish.

“Between April and June is when bass spawn,” said Blank, who recommended lakes Goodwin, Washington, Whatcom and Sammamish. “Do your staging off a rocky drop-off.”

Blank recommended using the earth view of Google Maps to get overhead views of prospective fishing areas, to identify their shallows and save on gas money.

Also, store volunteer Michael Kyte supervised kids building wooden boats.

through Thursday, closing at 10 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and also having a Sunday brunch.

They have a staff of one full-time chef and four parttime servers. The business sells food along with bottled wine, three beers on tap, and house wine on tap.

They decided to open the business because, “It’s a growing area, and there’s nothing like it so there’s a definite need,” Mardy said.

“People want a nice place to meet friends and have some good wine.”

Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring and the MarysvilleTulalip Chamber of Commerce celebrated the opening of the three businesses with ribbon cuttings March 18.

closing at 3 p.m. Fridays.

Chiropractor Ken Shotwell has had offices in the Arlington area for about 10 years, after working in Ballard for 25. He and his wife, Kathy, split time between there and home, which is the Arlington Equestrian Center. They work in Smokey Point Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, and in their spare time care for horses and golden retrievers.

His wife loves horses, and fell in love with the facility in 2001. He tired of the commute quickly, so he sold the business there and has been here ever since.

They decided on this newest spot because of all the traffic, businesses and developments that are going in nearby. Shotwell said he has a solid customer base here, but that he also gets many of his old customers from Ballard. Also in the office is a massage therapist and a puppy therapist, a golden lab, Beanie Baby.

Kirk and Mardy Greenhalgh of Lake Goodwin own the wine bar.

It is their first venture into business as Kirk was retired from the county road department, and his wife was working in corporate America. “I’m not retired anymore,” he said. “We’re here all the time.”

The business is open 11:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday
