The historic Stilly canoe stolen about 50 years ago is moved from the Stanwood museum.

Canoe home

STANWOOD — After more than half a century, a lost piece of the Stillaguamish Tribe’s history finally made its way back home Oct. 27. During an estate sale in 1992, Penny Buse and her husband bought a shovelnose dugout wooden canoe, which they planned to display at the D.O. Pearson House Museum in Stanwood.

Buse, a member of the museum board, was curious as to the canoe’s origins, so she consulted with the Burke Museum in Seattle. Buse learned the canoe was between 120-130 years old, and had been stolen from the Stillaguamish River in Arlington in the 1960s. “I had never been sure whether the initial story we were told about it was correct,” said Buse, who’d been told the canoe had been abandoned in the river in

the 1970s. “But I was horrified to hear it had been stolen. Of course, as I talked about with Tracey, the irony is, if it hadn’t been stolen, it probably wouldn’t have survived.” “Tracey” is Tracey Boser, an archive specialist for the Stillaguamish Tribe, whom Buse contacted after learning the canoe’s true origins. “We’re so grateful to Penny,” Boser said, adding

ARLINGTON – If you’re a princess looking for a knight in shining armor this Halloween, you need to look no farther than Arlington. The Seattle Knights were here last weekend and will be coming again Nov. 28. You don’t have to go all the way to Excalibur in Las Vegas to see such a dinner show. Customers can eat a buffet while watching knights joust on horses and fight hand-to-hand combat using swords and axes. Tina and Mary Browmseerger of Marysville attended the recent show to celebrate their 20-year anniversary. “I’ve always wanted to see it,” Mary said of the Knights performance. Children June Thompson and Ford Kaluf of Seattle were excited to see the show again after watching them perform a few months ago at a Renaissance Fair. They’d already picked out a winner, the same one who won last

MARYSVILLE — The one-year anniversary of the MarysvillePilchuck shooting was marked with a Walk of Strength Oct. 24, with hundreds participating, including Nate Hatch, the lone victim to survive. Leaders offered thoughts, while those working with trauma victims pointed to concrete steps that had been taken toward recovery. Marysville schools superin-

tendent Becky Berg noted that staff have been trained to recognize signs of mental illness, while Tulalip Tribal Chairman Mel Sheldon Jr. cited the tribal meetings to give a voice to those who are hurting. Sheldon said: “After a tragedy like this, people will ask why it happened, and a lot of times, we simply don’t have an answer for them. We know it takes time, but we want to feel better right away. You need to be patient, with our-

selves and each other.” Rochelle Lubbers, recovery manager for the Tulalip Tribes, has made it her mission to identify the areas of the community where trauma persists. She’s even received the aid of international trauma centers in assessing the community’s needs. Josh Webb, director of counseling for Marysville schools, added: “These are the best kids in the world. They’re my heroes. They want to keep coming to school.”

Knights like to interact with customers during the show, but because of the glass window they visit with fans a lot before and after the show. The emcee was Darraugh Metzger. She said she has tried jousting but prefers combat. “It’s not a safe thing that we do,” she said. She described the Rhodes River Ranch arena as special because it’s enclosed. “You don’t know how nice it is not to have to scrub your armor after” the show, she added. One of the newest members of the troupe is Conner Haugan, 18, a senior at Central Kitsap High School.

The handoff is such an emotional moment that I brought tissues,” she laughed. Buse broke out those tis-

“My goal has always been to be a knight,” he said, seriously. Haugan said he received training at the Knights facility at the Seattle Armory. Another knight, Jordin Mitchell said they are actors and entertainers, but there is a lot of skill involved. During training they learn to aim for the armor their opponent has on, but if they do miss they only tear their foes clothes. “People don’t like to see blood,” Mitchell said, adding they also receive martial arts training. “I’m going to teach this youngster a thing or two,” he said to Haugan. Mitchell said a full body armor can weigh 70 pounds and limit your mobility so most of the combatants wear only pieces of armor.

Unlike Haugan, he didn’t plan to be a knight. “I don’t know if anyone really plans to do this,” he added. Shows are at 2 and 5:30 p.m. Tickets are $10-$22 at www.brownpapertickets. com, and a buffet dinner is available for $16.99 for adults.

Performances are from 6-8:30 p.m. Fridays and 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Sundays.

sues when Stillaguamish Tribal Chairman Shawn Yanity arrived at the museum to collect the canoe. She and Boser credited the museum board with voting unanimously to return the canoe to the tribe, which Buse noted is not standard practice for most museums. Just as the museum officially inducted the Stillaguamish Tribe as members, so too did Yanity confer witness status upon Buse and Viola Spencer, a

tribal member whose greatgrandmother had been a rower on the canoe. “This area is our home,” Yanity said. “Our ancestors lived here. This canoe was a workhorse. It was the pickup truck of the rivers, which were our superhighways. It took a lot of skill to operate, but it was our way of life. Each canoe family carried themselves a certain way. By bringing this canoe home, we’re bringing back a part of our heritage.”

Students reflect on journey to be ‘M-P Stronger’ kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

MARYSVILLE — The home field stands at MarysvillePilchuck’s Quil Ceda stadium were packed to the rafters with students, parents, school district staff, government officials and community members Oct. 24. They came together to observe the one-year anniversary of the high school shooting by proclaiming “M-P Stronger” after having time to heal. Although the event featured no speeches, M-P senior Alisha Purdom and sophomore Bailey Nelson reflected on the journey that they and their classmates had made over the past year to reach their current points of recovery

from the tragedy. Purdom, the student body president, spent her summer making 1,550 friendship bracelets to welcome each of her peers back to class. “I’m a peoplepleaser, so my biggest struggle has been to step back and let myself heal,” Purdom Purdom said. Purdom has seen her classmates go through phases of fear and grief, but she and Nelson have also seen them grow closer to their peers. “I feel like there’s a sense of ownership that I might not have felt before,” Purdom said. “They’re

more involved. We were all so excited to come back to school. I’m proud of who we’ve become in the months that followed the shooting.” Nelson admitted there were plenty of times when she didn’t know if she could handle the aftermath of the shooting, espeNelson cially in the first few months. “I had more bad days than good,” Nelson said. “I would just random cry. My parents struggled to help me. I had to learn how to take control of my own brain.” Like Purdom, Nelson believes the shared tragedy has given the

at one time had about 150 employees. More recently the old mill has been the site of homeless encampments and fires. Welco Lumber has since installed more lighting and removed flammable debris. Marysville Fire Marshal Tom Maloney said most of the buildings on the site have been dismantled, and the site is now being used to store construction equipment for road crews. The mill site lies between I-5 and the Geddes Marina, which the city purchased in 2010.

ciation to the community for its support, but asked them to understand that the students can’t always be “M-P Strong.” “Some days, we feel really weak,” Nelson said. “This past week has brought back a lot of emotions, with the anniversary. That’s why the first year after a tragedy is always the hardest. I have more good days than bad now, but it’s okay to still have bad days, and it’s okay to get help.” As M-P’s families and friends filed out of the stands to do their “Walk of Strength” around the track, they held hands and embraced each other, continuing to heed the advice of the song, “Lean On Me,” that played after the moment of silence in honor of the five lives lost.

MARYSVILLE — The city has entered into a contract to buy the old Welco Lumber mill site adjacent to Interstate 5 on the Ebey Slough waterfront. While the site doesn’t look like much now, with asphalt and half-torn-down buildings, the city is excited about its potential. If the sale is completed, the city would then own all of the property on Marysville’s waterfront. An appraisal put the value at $2.78 million, although the city is testing the soil before a deal can be finalized. It could take up to a year for those environmental studies to wrap up, said Gloria Hirashima, the city’s chief administrative officer. The appraisal assumed the property is free of hazardous substances, she said. Hirashima said the city would be looking at the site for a variety of uses, including widening First Street, building a stormwater treatment facility, or putting in another park or trail. The purchase would come as the city has been ramping up its waterfront development. The city already is improving waterfront property it owns. It is anticipating that in the coming year it will pave a trail leading from Ebey Waterfront Park to the Qwuloolt estuary. Hirashima said if contaminants are found the city still could decide to buy the land. However, it would be up to negotiations

as to whether Welco or the city would pay for cleaning it up and how the price may change because of it. Whether it is cleaned up at all or not would depend on its future use. Hirashima said funding for the purchase would come from a combination of sources, such as the general fund and utilities. The 4.9 acre site was used as a lumber mill until 2007, when the housing construction industry took a downturn and the mill closed. It had been operational since the 1960s and

students of M-P a mutual understanding of each other. “Our school has tons of different personalities, but when one of us is having a bad day, we all know why,” Nelson said. “We just get it with each other.” As they look ahead, Nelson and Purdom still see a lot more recovery work in their future, and they both sought to reassure their peers that, “It’s okay not to be okay.” “We’re still a little broken, and we’re all grieving in different ways, but we’re all here for each other,” Purdom said. “When some of us are upset, others of us can comfort them. I’m actually shocked by how smoothly everything has gone this past week.” Nelson expressed her appre-

Lakewood schools unique Lakewood School District is unique because we are not directly affiliated with a city. We have no downtown business association, and we do not have a retail core. The school district facility is the largest place to hold a community event. Because of this, the schools become the common point of connection for our community. T h i s connection is n e v e r m o r e a p p a r e nt Leach than during our fall Homecoming activities. Each year on the Friday afternoon of our Homecoming football game, the entire district gathers for a parade. The students from each school line the parade route through our campuses. High school students, supported by the Homecoming Court, the band and other programs, walk in the parade. As they walk the route, the high school students high-five the younger students, and many shake hands, high five, or even hug a former teacher. This event connects generations, as we also see parents along the route. The parade ends in the LHS gym with the Homecoming Assembly. The football game attracts the largest crowd of the year with graduates and former staff members returning. They attend to reconnect with old friends, classmates and staff. Some show up with wives and children in tow. They update each other on what they are doing, reminisce about absent friends and converse with staff and classmates. Seattle’s Roosevelt High

has a seal in the main entry that says, “What I am to be, I am now becoming.” That is another message about Homecoming. In the school system, we rarely see the finished person. We work to shape habits, strengthen ethics and develop skills. Then students leave to find their places in the world. When they come back for an event like Homecoming, we are able to share in their successes and celebrate their achievements in the halls of Lakewood High School. Lakewood School District is building a new high school. We are almost done with the design process. As we construct this new building, we are cognizant of keeping many aspects of the old building and traditions alive. We are looking at incorporating trophy cases, record boards and the hall of fame into the new design. We are going to try and maintain the community feel with open plazas and places to hold events. The building might be new, but we want to make sure it has our Lakewood character and feels like home when our graduates return. It’s been written that a “house is built with brick and stone, but what’s inside makes it a home.” The exterior of the building may look different, and the building will be slightly to the south, but we will strive to retain that community feel in the new building. The teachers will still teach with the same passion and care for all. Our district patrons will be proud to call it home, and it will continue to be the place where Lakewood meets. Dale Leach is the director of Learning Support Services for the Lakewood School District.

Family engagement key for youth Raising a child is not easy. We have social, cultural and family differences in the way we raise children. Even so, every parent wants the best for their children. So, what is the best formula for helping children be successful in school and life? The solution may be closer to home than you think. It’s really about how parents, family and community engage children in learning. Here is a story about my journey learning how to engage as a parent with schools and community. When we had our first child 13 years ago, I worried every day about how we would raise him. I was fortunate to be a stay-at-home mom during the mostcritical early years of brain development, when up to 90 percent of a child’s brain is hard-wired for learning. I started reading and attending classes so I could learn more about child and human development. By the time our son was 3½, we added a new member into our family – a baby girl. Both children were able to experience preschool in and out of the home. I gained knowledge on how to expand their learning, such as reading, writing, math and science at home. I joined the PTSA and signed

up to be a legislative chairwoman and led school science fairs. I learned how to advocate for my children and decided to put these skills to the test with their teachers. Together, we were able to find ways to support both children at home and school. Afterwards, I was invited to be on the Student Improvement Team and the Arlington Council for Education to provide input on school planning from a parent/ c o m munity member v i e w point. S i n c e then, I’ve gone back Pendray to work. I still volunteer in my children’s school so I can assist students and teachers who need extra support. There are so many needs. It takes more than a village – it takes a whole community. Over the last few decades, costs have risen and budgets have been cut. Schools are not able to do everything on their own. Children, families, schools and communities have more needs. In an effort to keep children safe, healthy, supported, engaged and challenged; parents,

schools and community members are being called to work together to fully support our youth. Family Engagement is a necessary part of life for every child. I noticed that it has helped my children engage in education at a high level. Children are smart. They realize that learning is embedded in our family, school and community values. If we all stand together to engage in our schools, our children will succeed. For me, I’ve learned, “what you pay attention to, grows.” The more I focus on my children’s education, the more they grow. I’ve also learned that “parent, family, and community engagement is critical to student success.” We all need to invest in our youth. There are a variety of ways to engage in schools, including: P TA / P T S A / B o o s t e r Club; Classroom helper; Book fairs; Tutoring; Room parent; Lunch buddy; WATCH D.O.G.S.; Parents on Campus; Recess volunteer; Classroom speaker; Music/drama productions; Committee advisor; Senior project panel member; Field trip chaperone; Preparing materials for projects; Curriculum Adoption

Committee; and Advisory Council for Education. Schools can collaborate with parents to remove barriers to help parents navigate resources and information. The National Parent Teacher Student Association has a Parent Engagement framework called, First Steps at www. ptsa.org to learn more. For families: •Parents are a child’s first teacher. Encourage, talk and engage your child in learning; and continuously assess their needs – social, emotional, physical and academic •Partner: with teachers, school counselors and/or principals about your ideas •Collaborate: identify realistic goals that tie into learning objectives •Take collective action: parents, teachers and students working together on student goals •Measure results: follow up and communicate feedback together as a team •Volunteer: give back to schools and community organizations and we will all flourish, together. Kari Pendray is an Education and Family Support Coordinator with Snohomish County ECEAP, working with Arlington Public Schools.

A disaster can weigh heavily on your state of mind. So at this week’s CERT training we learned about the psychology of disaster. The goal is to stabilize the individuals and provide support by being an empathetic listener. Chris Badger explained there are three stages of stress: 1. Run, hide or fight. 2. What should I do? 3. Exhaustion, or post traumatic stress disorder. In a disaster you can suffer personal losses, and not feel safe. You can suffer compassion fatigue and survivor’s trauma. You have to watch out for that or you won’t be able to help others. You need to take steps to alleviate stress. You can suffer irritability or anger, isolation, depression and have loss of appetite, headaches, chest pain and nightmares. Community Emergency Response Team members need to help the well-being of other volunteers. Ways to reduce stress include:

•Connect with others, they might want to use social media. •Use spiritual resources •Allow yourself to receive as well as give •Make sure friends and re l at i v e s k n o w to listen when you want to talk, but don’t force you to Powell talk if you don’t want to. To reduce stress during the disaster: •Brief volunteers what to expect before they enter the site. •Work as a team with your buddy. •Encourage rescuers to rest, take breaks, eat and drink fluids. •Rotate volunteers in and out of the site. •Debrief all volunteers. The Critical Incident Stress Debriefing needs to include facts of the disaster, thoughts and feelings, emo-

tional reactions and review of symptoms of stress in case they need help later. Be sure to include spontaneous volunteers, ones caught on scene who stay to help. Even dealing with survivors in a disaster can be stressful as they may express anger or blame on rescuers. That relationship can be more positive if you can get them to help with other victims; connect them with family, friends or clergy; listen to them about their feelings and physical needs; and empathize with them. A good listener paraphrases what has been said and also watches body language, including facial expressions. Listening can be better than talking because you could say the wrong thing. Some phrases meant to comfort can also set people off. Such as: •”I understand” or “Don’t feel bad.” •”You’re strong” or “You’ll get through this.” •”Don’t cry” or “It’s God’s will.”

•”It could be worse” or “At least you still have …” or “Everything will be OK.” If a victim dies, and you have to tell the family, take them to a quiet, private place. Have them sit, if possible. Make eye contact and use a calm, kind voice. Simply say, “I’m sorry, but your family member has died. I am so sorry.” Some in the class were concerned that their actions would be judged by emergency responders. Badger said that is not the case, that they appreciate the help. “Things change quickly” in a disaster situation, she said. City disaster response coordinator Diana Rose said CERT teams will partner with Everett and local fire stations to help in an emergency.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR More tethering

There has been a lot in the news about dog tethering, with much of the focus on Blaze, who is kept tethered with a cone on his head. Due to public outcry, a law went into effect Oct. 1 that limits the time a dog can be tethered, and the size and weight of the chain used. I’ve been a professional pet sitter for 18 years. In my accredited training, I was taught to never leave a dog tethered unsupervised for any length of time. A tethered dog could strangle or become injured if it gets tangled in its line. A tethered dog could fall prey to any predator, such as another dog, a cougar, a bobcat or a coyote. A tethered dog can be unable to reach shelter so it could die of heat stroke or hypothermia, depending on the weather. In Blaze’s case, he has not only lost his ability of flight to escape, he also has lost his ability to fight because of the cone. This new law is a step in the right direction, but it falls short of outlawing tethering, and that’s what the correct solution should be. Susie Ewing, Arlington

Elect Britton

The Firefighters’ Association supports Dan Britton, a man who knows and understands this district’s long-term needs. The citizens are the priority, not the bent egos of ex-chiefs trying to puppeteer an easy mark. Fire District 21 has been progressing through an evolutionary path for four years. The last two years have been under the direction of one of the finest fire chiefs I’ve known. Chief Travis Hots was hired by our commissioners to provide much-needed guidance to a troubled fire district that has been battling poor morale, lack of participation, and an absence of desire to learn the job of firefighting and emergency medical services. Now enters Ed Taft, running for commissioner because of what he perceives as a financially mismanaged and misguided organization. Taft has never came to a commissioners meeting or volunteered in fire service. He discredits the changes made to the district’s response plans. Changes that have now resulted in improved insurance ratings for the district. Taft is being sold the idea of going back to the good

old ways of the department. The volunteerism of years past just doesn’t exist in this form. The level of competence that our citizens deserve just can’t be obtained from folks who think they can show up with a “red tavern jacket”. Please join me in supporting Dan Britton, commissioner. Robert White, volunteer firefighter

Fix gun law

One year ago, a 15-yearold freshman at MarysvillePilchuck High School shot five of his friends in the school cafeteria, killing four, before killing himself. The Marysville community is recovering, but the families of the victims will forever mourn the loss of their children. And the students at Marysville will always carry with them the trauma of this tragedy. The shooter, like so many others, was a troubled – yet, normal teenager. Family and friends described him as “happy” and “not a violent person.” He had no history of mental illness. But he was dealing with emotional turmoil, like all teenagers do, and he had easy access to guns at home. For this young man, there was no barrier between a violent, suicidal impulse and the means to carry it out. The .40-caliber Beretta handgun was sitting there, at home, unsecured, ready for use. Unlike most states, Washington has no law that holds adult gun owners accountable when a negligently stored firearm is used by a child to harm themselves or others. We’re fighting to pass a Child Access Prevention law. Thousands have signed our petition. Tell Olympia to pass Child access Prevention and hold negligent gun owners accountable. We can prevent gun tragedies like Marysville and save lives. Renée Hopkins, Washington Alliance for Gun Responsibility

I am endorsing Mayor Barbara Tolbert. Over the past six years I have worked with Barb through various roles with local organizations/public committees such as the Chamber of Commerce and the Planning Commission. She has always impressed me with her business sense, ability to lead and diploma-

cy in working with a large demographic of people. Her confidence and charisma are evident when you have an opportunity to engage with her in conversation. I feel these qualities have greatly benefited our community over the last few years during a time of financial hardship with Tolbert lobbying in Olympia on behalf of our small city. She has always been approachable during her term as mayor; I have periodically inquired with her regarding various city services and have always been given an answer or pointed in the right direction. She was very accommodating when asked to take time out of her busy schedule to volunteer at a local PTA event for young children. Honestly her biggest endeavors that stand out to me are dealing with the extreme budget crisis she inherited when stepping into office and then working through our city’s largest tragedy last year, the Oso slide. To work through these two difficult items and then want to be mayor again, speaks volumes about how much she cares about our community. Please help re-elect Mayor Tolbert so she can continue to help our town. David Mathieson, Arlington

Fix misstatements

A recent letter to the editor by former finance director Jim Chase included many misstatements. Recently, Chase contacted assistant finance director-payroll administrator Roxanne Guenzler to ask her to back up his story. She requested that he rewrite his letter to reflect the truth. Chase alleges that

Mayor Tolbert instructed Guenzler to not tell anyone of a raise for the former city administrator in June 2014. In reality, Tolbert approached Guenzler in May 2014 with a request to explain the city’s process for providing pay increases to contract employees. Guenzler shared the appropriate process, including completing a salary survey for the positions and generating a formal Employee Information Notice. Both are conducted by the city’s Human Resources staff. In addition, Guenzler reminded Tolbert that if the salary increase triggered an exceedance of the city’s overall General Fund budgeted expenditures, a budget amendment was required. Tolbert requested that the conversation regarding the salary increase process be kept confidential until the process was complete, as she had confidentiality concerns with some city staff. Tolbert contacted the city’s Human Resources director, Kristin Banfield, to confirm the process, which she did. Banfield confirmed the process and provided her with city administrator salaries for comparable cities (cities of like population, size and sales tax generation), plus information on city administrator salaries with experience similar to Mr. Johnson’s. Following through on the proper process, budget amendments were adopted by the council in December 2014. Chase also alleges that Tolbert submitted for reimbursement for meetings that were not allowable. Chase knows full well that the mayor consistently attends far more than the 20 meetings per month that may have been claimed for reimbursement. The first four

months of 2015 showed an average of 60 meetings per month. It is truly disappointing that Chase chose to not correct his factual misstatements when presented with that opportunity. Paul Ellis, Arlington city administrator

Foe not ready

I have listened to the candidates at various forums and read many letters to the editor. I have worked for and operated a business near the airport in Arlington for nearly 20 years and my concern right now is, what would happen to our community if a mayor was elected that had no plan to keep the city moving forward? Craig Christianson is running on a platform of needed change but cannot tell us his plans to improve or even maintain the current direction of the city. Christianson has admitted liking many of the things Mayor Tolbert has implemented. He has said he does not want to be as negative toward her as some of his supporters are. From what I saw at the forum those supporters are comprised of some disgruntled ex-city employees and is beginning to look more like a vendetta. During Tolbert’s time as mayor, she has made great progress toward fixing the city’s finances. She came into office with a $77 reserve fund balance, and that was while now-retired Finance Director Jim Chase was in charge. The city had aging equipment and was in desperate need for transportation improvements, infrastructure and economic development efforts to create jobs and sales tax. Tolbert got to work

organizing staff and working with the community to raise funds to purchase new public safety equipment and start building the reserve fund. She has discussed her 10-year plan to get the city’s reserve fund healthy and provide for the replacement of aging equipment. Her regional work has put Arlington on the map and secured funding from Olympia for projects like 172nd that is key to the future of businesses in Arlington. On the city’s website you can view the preliminary 2016 budget. It is clear the budget reflects a mayor who believes in financial responsibility. Business people know how hard it can be to maintain a strong margin when the cost of providing service goes up faster than the economy can tolerate. Tolbert has been able to demonstrate her ability to accomplish this in the face of a recovering economy. The only increases I see in discretionary spending is to provide greater economic development, which we need. Sometimes you have to make hard choices for the greater good, although it may not be popular with all employees. Tolbert demonstrates these qualities. In addition to Tolbert’s focus on transportation, economic development, and creating living wage jobs, her work during the wake of the 530 slide was extraordinary. With no way of preparing for a disaster of that magnitude, Tolbert has humbly led Arlington with honor, integrity and purpose. I would rather have a mayor with a plan than one who does not. I encourage you to support Mayor Tolbert for re-election. Carla Rankin Gastineau, Arlington

cast with characters from Disney animated movies?” Probably not. But the Marysville High School Drama Club is going to answer the question anyway in the play, “Games of Tiaras.” The show, which borrows part of its name from a popular HBO TV show, will be presented in the Marysville-Pilchuck auditorium at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 5-7 and 12-14. Tickets, available at the door, are $7 for adults and $5 for students, senior citizens and small children. The story revolves around an aging king of a Magical Kingdom and his desire to split his empire between his daughters Cinderella, Belle and the Snow Queen. This bad idea escalates into a rift between the daughters, who declare war on each other. Along the way, the audience meets Snow White, Ariel, Pocahontas, Jasmine, Mulan and a number of other familiar characters who will try to outwit, outlast and outplay each other in the quest for the king’s empire. Auditions were held in September, and students have been rehearsing four days a week after school. Over 30 students from both M-P and Marysville Getchell make up the cast and crew. Included in the cast are: Kenna Goodwin, Nathaniel Roth, Victoria Willey, Elizabeth Price, Jessica Hamilton, Chloe Larsen, Denny Jacobsen, Skylar van der Putten, Tanner Collier, Ricky Hoffman, Megan White, Mallory Ford, Jeremie Meader, Michael Richmond, Tariq Witt, Brionna Olson, Jesse Saul, Kayila Moen, Alexis Barbosa and Taylor Collier.

Arlington favors tax hike Videos make math more fun kboxleitner@marysvilleglobe.com

ARLINGTON — In spite of city staff ’s recommendations, the Arlington City Council requested at their Oct. 26 workshop to be presented with a budget on Nov. 2 that includes a 1 percent increase in the general property tax levy. Finance director Kristin Garcia presented the council with three options: 1: No tax increase, but preserve the 1 percent capacity for future use, which equals $39,174. 2: Increase the tax levy by 0.251 percent, which equals $9,832, and preserve the remaining capacity up to 1 percent for future use. 3: Increase the tax levy by 1 percent, which equals $39,174, and includes no capacity to preserve for future use. Garcia noted that all three proposals excluded additional revenue that might be received due to new construction, refunds and valuations of stateassessed property. The preliminary budget presented Oct. 19 proposed no tax increase, but the

council requested additional information. Council member Chris Raezer pointed out that, by not banking the tax increase, the city would lose the compound interest from taking it later. When council member Jan S c hu e tt e asserted that a roughly $39,000 t a x increase w o u l d Garcia be relatively modest, when divided among Arlington’s residents, Mayor Barbara Tolbert reiterated that citizens have already seen a recent increase due to the levy lid lift. “As we build our reserves back up, that banked capacity is one more tool for us to use,” Tolbert said. Council member Jesica Stickles countered that it would be “not as painful” to take a $4 per person increase now, versus a possible $15 in the future. Council member Marilyn Oertle concurred, saying it

was “always a wise move” to take the 1 percent increase when it’s available. After council members Debora Nelson and Randy Tendering noted that such an increase would still leave Arlington in the middle of tax rates for surrounding cities, Garcia asked if there was a consensus to revise the budget to include a 1 percent increase, which the council confirmed. The lingering issue of the public safety director will remain up for discussion, even as city administrator Paul Ellis admitted that his earlier estimate of $12,000 to hire a police chief for the last six months of 2016 was inaccurate, and revised it to $30,000. Ellis nonetheless insisted the city could cover that additional expense without taking money away from any other part of the budget. Tolbert recommended that the council withhold their decisions about the public safety director position, adding that new data will be available in January on how well the position has done for the city.

Cheer fund-raiser

ARLINGTON – A fund-raiser for the Sonic Elite Cheer club will take place Nov. 7 from 5-9 p.m. at Gleneagle Golf Course.

The all-star cheer teams will have their first public performance after seven months of practicing.. Admission to that event is by toy donation for kids in need.

ARLINGTON — “We asked you for a huge investment,” said Bethany Belisle, program support specialist for Eagle Creek Elementary, as she addressed the Arlington School Board Oct. 26. “Our students are here to say thank you, and to show you not only what they’ve learned, but how they’ve learned it,” she added. Eagle Creek second-grade teacher Sarah Durrant introduced four students — Kyra Krueger, Justin Rinehardt, Rocky Romans and Ruby Taylor — who incorporated online videos and singalongs into their presentation to the board, about their new math curriculum. The students explained that such videos and songs serve to reinforce the lessons they receive on math tools such as skip-counting and base-10 blocks. By turning those lessons into games, the students agreed that math had become fun. Durrant added that being given time to work out the math on paper on their own further engaged the students’ attention and enhanced their

By the end of second grade, the students are expected to be able to skip-count by increments of 2, 5 and 10. All four students said they enjoyed math more this year, in no small part because the multimedia incorporation of interactive onscreen activities maintained their interest. School board member Jim Weiss personally attested to the fact that the secondgraders are using a curriculum that builds on what he’s seen has helped his grandson, who’s in kindergarten, with his homework. “This

curriculum helps them understand why the numbers are,” Durrant said. “It’s not just about rote memorization.” Belisle added: “There’s a huge vocabulary component involved.” When Weiss asked if the online videos could be accessed from home, Durrant confirmed that they would be accessible soon, with usernames and passwords. “We also have a feature for parents that says, ‘If you’re having trouble, go here,’” Belisle said. “Parents love that.”

ARLINGTON — Having a high pain threshold is one of Nathan Beamer’s strengths. It’s described as “ungodly” by his cross-country coach Mike Shierk. Beamer of Arlington won the league title at the Wesco championships with a time of 15 minutes, 41.5 seconds Oct. 24. As a result, he is the Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Co-Athlete of the Week. “The course was dry that day compared to the Hole in the Wall,” Beamer said of the previous meet at Lakewood. “It was nice having less people in that race.” It also helped that he knew the trail quite well. He trained there knowing the league championship would take place there. “He knows that course inside and out,” Shierk said. When Beamer was 1,200 meters out from the finish line, he was instructed by Shierk to give it

his all and sprint to the finish. “You could be exhausted, but when you see the finish line all the pain of the race goes away,” Beamer said. “He’s pretty strong to be able to do that,” Shierk said. He’s going to need that when he competes at state, Nov. 7 at Sun Willows Golf Course in Pasco. “There will be five or six guys that will go toe-to-toe with him,” Shierk said. Beamer carries a chip on his shoulder. As a senior he was enjoying an undefeated season stringing together three firstplace finishes in the 5K. It was going smoothly until Oct. 3 at the Twilight Invitational at Cedarcrest Golf Course in Marysville. He was leading most the way but 4A Eastlake’s Nathan Pixler outsprint Beamer in the final stretch. “It bugs me because I couldn’t tell where the guy was,” Beamer said. “I thought he was farther

behind me. By the time I knew where he was he blew right by me.” It was bittersweet because it was Nathan’s best time ever at 15:14. “That’s the type of stuff that haunts Nate,” Shierk said. Beamer assures the race will be closer if they race again. He learned to never underestimate the competition. “It was a wakeup call,” he said. It’s achievable because he’s “ultra-competitive in every facet.” He goes to camps and trains, but also in “silly games” like playing tag with teammates. He has been in communication with college coaches from Boise and Adams State University. Gonzaga has also been keeping track of Beamer. But now his sights are set on becoming the 3A state champion. His goal is to run a 14:50. “He’s talked about it ever since I had him,” Shierk said.

LAKEWOOD — Lilly Whitehead of Lakewood keeps getting better and better. She won the cross country Cascade 2A title placing first with a personal best of 19 minutes, 51.10 seconds Oct. 24. She was named Marysville Globe-Arlington Times Co-Athlete of the Week. “I didn’t focus on the time at all. My only goal was just to win,” she said. So far that has worked for her. As the senior keeps focus, she keeps shedding seconds off her time. Her first 5K of the season was 22:05. “She’s incredibly coachable,” coach Jeff Sowards said and has “gained confidence” as her times continue to improve. “[I] just try and not be stressed out — not worry about races,” Whitehead said. “[I] worry about school when it’s school, and cross country when it’s cross country.” She hopes to continue her pace

through districts and state with the goal of placing the highest she can. Whitehead also helped her team place second overall in the league meet. She was also backed by other strong runners, such as teammate Britney Albro, who placed second. “I think we all worked together well as a team,” she said. “We were on the same page.” She knew her team could start and finish strong, she said. “I think that was really important,” she said. “Knowing your team was going to do the best they can.” She started cross country in middle school. Her goal to get better followed after running with high schoolers as an eighth-grader. “I was just ok in middle school,” she said. “And then I wanted to get better.” She wants to run cross country and track for a small college. She is interested in Lewis and Clark, Linfield and Willamette.

AHS to perform ‘Crucible’

ARLINGTON – The Arlington High School’s drama department will perform Arthur Miller’s “The Crucible” Nov. 6-7, 13-14. Shows are at 7 p.m. at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center at the high school. Tickets are $8 for students and $10 for adults. The play is steeped in his-

torical facts, as it is based off of actual events from the witch trials in Salem, Mass., in 1692. Cast member Josh Basher said, “This show does such a great job of keeping the audience guessing how they feel toward the characters; in some instances, the audience feels sympathy for my

character, John Proctor, due to the false accusations towards his family; while in other situations, they despise him for his short temper and the way he treats several characters in the play. “These were real people, and our goal is to portray them in the most-accurate

light possible.” Emily Hawks, another familiar face to the Arlington High stage, said: “The Crucible makes people question how it applies to their lives. The hysteria and group panic that occur really happened at more than one time in history, and the really terrifying

thing about the play is how my character Abigail is able to manipulate the town to the point of killing innocent people without any concrete evidence.” Tickets can be purchased online at byrnesperformingarts.org as well as at the door on show nights beginning at 6 p.m.
