LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood School District Board of Directors marked the end of an era on Tuesday, Dec. 18, as 11-year Director District 3 incumbent Ken Christiansen attended his last Board meet-ing as a Board member, but his successor was already there to greet the Board and his predecessor.

Christiansen was joined at the Board meet-ing by his wife Kathy and their children, Rob and Karen, as Ken carved off slices of choco-late cake to commemorate the occasion and posed for photos with an oversized farewell card signed by well-wishers. Although Dave Kiefer was appointed as Ken Christiansen’s successor in the Director District 3 position by the Board on Dec. 7, he won’t be sworn into that seat until Jan. 16 of next year.

to join those congratulating Christiansen on his accomplishments.

ARLINGTON — The Rotary Club of Arlington made more than $5,000 worth of groceries disap-pear in less than three hours on Thursday, Dec. 20.

By about 10:30 a.m., Rotarians went shopping at the Arlington Safeway for both fresh produce and non-perishable food items whose purchases they’d already funded through donations. Shortly after 11 a.m., they’d returned from shopping to the Soccer First indoor fields, onto whose artificial turf they unloaded their haul of groceries for the next half hour. From there, the Arlington Rotary’s assembly of Christmas meal baskets for area families in

need went even more high-speed, thanks to an innova-tion that event coordinator Penny Clark pioneered at last year’s event.

“Rather than having our volunteers go around to each cardboard box and fill it with all the food items needed before moving onto the next one, we had our volunteers make sure that one of each item was in every box,” Clark said. “That actually goes much further toward making sure that none of the boxes are missing any items.”

With an estimated 40 volunteers forming human assembly lines to stock boxes for 77 area families in need, all the boxes that had been empty at noon were

and daughter Rachel is a senior at Lakewood High School — but Dave remains concerned with the state of the school district even as his youngest child prepares to graduate out of it this school year.

“It’s not just about my own kids, but everyone’s kids in the district,” Dave Kiefer said. “I’d like to see us help them become successful in what-ever career path they choose, whether it involves college or not. Only 17 percent of the students in the Lakewood School District go on to col-lege after graduation, so we should also be preparing them for other paths, from technical schools to directly entering the workforce. We need to be giving them a wide variety of tools.”

As a parent, Kiefer takes his responsibility for his own children’s education

seriously, and he hopes that other parents do the same. At the same time, Kiefer’s investment in education was seeded well before he had children of his own.

“I’ve been involved in school levies since I was a kid myself,” said Kiefer, who’s served as a Career and Technical Education Program Advisor for the past several years in the Lakewood School District. “When I was a teen in Seattle, my mom was in charge of running the levy campaigns, so through college, I was stapling signs together and manning phone banks. This all seemed like the next logi-cal step.”

Kiefer has already served 10 years as a HELP Committee member, and Haddock touted Kiefer as well-versed on private and public finance affairs from his job as a Chief Financial Officer of a skilled nursing facility company.

“I’ve also been involved

in the levy campaigns since 2000 and the bond to build Cougar Creek Elementary,” Kiefer said. “Our kids are the future. They’re going to be the next leaders in our cities, in our state and in the nation. They’ll be the ones who will take care of us. My wish would be that all our parents and other com-munity members join the school district in its goal to prepare all our children for their next steps in life.”

MARYSVILLE — It was standing room only in the alcove of the gymnasium at Marysville Getchell High School on Wednesday, Dec. 12, as students thronged the tightly packed space to watch seven of their peers compete in the school finals for the national Poetry Out Loud competition.

The recitations of poetry ranged from A.E. Houseman’s “To an Athlete Dying Young” to Mary Howitt’s “The Spider and the Fly” and were judged by a panel consist-ing of Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring, Marysville School District Assistant Superintendent Gail Miller, and MSD Board of Directors Vice President Wendy Fryberg and Board member Peter Lundberg.

Gary Knowlton, the English Department lead for Marysville Getchell High School, explained that this year marked Marysville Getchell’s first participa-tion in the poetry recital contest funded by the Poetry Foundation and the National Endowments for the Arts.

“The seven who made it to the school finals were picked as the winners within their classrooms,” Knowlton said.

The Dec. 12 school finals included recitals from Madison Kint, Kendra Nguyen, Jesse Pavilando and Danielle Santos from the Bio-Med Academy, as well as Chloe Chambers and Andrew Wattier from the International School of Communications, it was another Bio-Med student, Braulio Ramos, whose recit-als of Lewis Carroll’s “The Jabberwocky” and Rhina P. Espaillat’s “Bilingual/Bilingüe” that Knowlton credited with setting him head and shoulders above his peers.

“Students are judged by categories including accu-racy to the text, physi-

cal presence, evidence of understanding and overall performance,” Knowlton said. “This doesn’t mean hamming it up. You can’t gesticulate wildly or have any props. The focus has to be on the words. But Braulio earned the highest marks of the seven because he was

much more dramatic and confident. If you look at the scores, he was the clear win-ner in all the categories.”

Ramos spent at least an hour a day reciting his two poems while asking friends to check the text as he was delivering them, to make sure he didn’t miss any of

the words. He even checked with Hispanic friends to ensure he was pronounc-ing the Spanish words cor-rectly.

“It was a challenge to get comfortable with reciting in front of an audience,” Ramos said. “After that, it felt rewarding to be acknowl-

edged for my work.”Ramos’ win at the

Marysville Getchell finals makes him eligible for the regional Poetry Out Loud competition in March, with the winners of that contest proceeding on to the state contest, where they will vie for spots in the nationals.

ARLINGTON — Arlington firefighters collected 5,800 pounds of food and $611.75 for the Arlington Community Food Bank over the course of 10 nights through this year’s “Santa Run” food drive, which made its way through the town’s neighborhoods from Friday, Dec. 7, through Sunday, Dec. 16.

Arlington Fire Capt. Dave Kraski explained that, after 20 years, this event has become the largest annual contributor to the Arlington Community Food Bank, col-lecting an average of 5,000 pounds of food each year, thanks to the combined efforts of roughly 70 volunteers, many of whom pitch in on two or even three different nights.

“It takes at least seven adults each night to make it happen,” Kraski said of the Arlington firefighters, as well as their fami-lies and friends, who escorted Santa on a decorated fire engine to gather food dona-tions, pass out candy canes and spread holiday cheer. “We usually have some kids helping as well.”

International Association of Fire Fighters Local #3728 purchases the candy canes,

decorations and Santa gear each year, while the city of Arlington provides a reserve fire engine and aid vehicle to be used, in addi-tion to covering their fuel expenses.

Kraski credited Arlington High School Varsity Boys Basketball Coach Nick Brown and his wife Caryn with suggesting that the “Santa Run” make a stop at the AHS campus prior to a home game next year.

“It could be fun to work with the school district, and have the fire engine lit up and parked out front of the high school, conducting the food drive as everyone arrives for the game,” said Kraski, who sees this potential plan as a means of drawing donations from those who live outside of Arlington and might not even be aware of the “Santa Run.”

Kraski praised not only the Arlington community for its consistent generosity, but also the volunteers who help coordinate and carry out the food drive over the course of several winter evenings each year.

“I would especially like to recognize Matt Allen, Deana Dean and Jennifer Egger for their help, as well as the firefighters union, which organizes and underwrites the event,” Kraski said.

The recent deaths of three Washington teens — a 14-year-old Bellingham

girl, a 17-year-old boy in Shoreline, and an 18-year-old Washington State University student — remind us just how dangerous alcohol is for minors. As parents and co-chairs of the Washington State Coalition to Reduce Underage Drinking our hearts go out to the families and friends who are suffering these terrible losses.

Before we lose another child, grandchild, student, and friend, let’s ask ourselves what we as adults are doing to encourage or discourage underage drinking.

Parents MatterParents are the No. 1 influence

on their children’s decisions about alcohol. Although their friends and the media also play a role, studies consistently show that parents are the key, and kids pay attention to what they say and do. Opportunities and pressure to drink (especially during holidays and other times for celebrating) are constant in their young lives.

The most important steps parents can take are to lock up their alcohol, never provide it to minors, continue guiding healthy choices with your teens and col-lege students, and give them the facts:

Alcohol kills more kids than tobacco and illegal drugs com-bined — 5,000 youth under 21 die each year from underage-drinking related injuries.

One in five 10th graders will binge drink (five or more drinks in a row) in the next two weeks.

Alcohol causes damage to the developing teen brain, putting them at greater risk for learning problems and addiction.

Communities MatterWe are concerned about youth

access to alcohol. Recent news reports strongly suggest that stolen liquor is making its way into the hands of teens. Have you wondered what you can do to help

create a healthier place for kids to grow up? Each of us has the power to reduce youth exposure to alco-hol and its advertising by:

■ Showing our children that we can socialize and have fun without alcohol, setting clear rules against underage drinking, and never pro-viding alcohol to those under 21.

■ Asking store owners to remove alcohol ads in windows and keep beer away from candy, toys, pop, other kid-friendly items and the store entrance.

■ Work with fair boards and community festival coordinators to minimize or eliminate youth exposure to alcohol advertising and promotion.

■ Making it harder for youth to get alcohol, and letting adults know it’s not ok to give it to teens.

Preventing underage drink-ing tragedies is up to all of us. Find out how to join others in your community to reduce underage drinking, and get tips for talking with youth, at www.StartTalkingNow.org.

Merry Christmas, Marysville and Arlington. Each December 25th, much of

our world celebrates the long-ago birth of a child who championed a way of life that so inflamed movers and shakers that they had him killed. He had preached a kind of peace that springs from doing simple acts of kindness that have little connection with riches and power. Trouble is, aside from some odd individuals who never fit in with socioeconomic prog-ress, it’s never seriously been tried.

So here we are again, celebrat-ing the birth of the Prince of Peace, along with other seasonal traditions. And then a maniac mowed down children and teachers in a hail of gunfire in Newtown, Conn. Peace on earth, good will toward men. We could use more of that considering the 80 shootings that have terrorized schools since Columbine.

By now, most of us wish the pain-ful inspection of the Sandy Hook massacre would be over. Be careful what you wish for because if we do silently close the book on it without bold and effective resolution, there will be more killing—because we did nothing.

Legislators have been inundated with calls for new gun laws—as though that might put a stop to the problem. The problem is that we are a violent people. In the period during which 6,000 troops lost their lives in Middle East conflicts, 100,000 died violent deaths here at home. By most measures, the United States is the most violent nation on the planet.

One in six youths between the ages of 10 and 17 has seen or knows some-one who has been shot. Children under 18 were 244 percent more like-ly to be killed by guns in 1993 than in 1986 and that percent has continued to rise. Violent crime has increased almost 600 percent since 1960. This

is the background for what happened at Sandy Hook.

We embrace violence. Among the video games youngsters will get for Christmas will be Gears of War, God of War, Scarface, Grand Theft Auto, Fallout, Fallout New Vegas and Dead Space. The object in these games is to kill before getting killed. By sending virtual bullets into virtual adversaries, young players learn to kill. They repeat it over and over until young hands reflexively pull triggers at imagined threats.

As young brains take shape from hours of playing Grand Theft Auto, they develop mental reflexes that, when acted out in the real world, are anything but play. Time spent with violent video games is rehearsal for killing. Though the games depict fantasy worlds, too many players are incapable of drawing a line between fantasy and reality. Put real guns in their hands and they are predisposed to kill.

Have you noticed the increase in young men opting for, or at least considering, military service or law enforcement, occupations where they can carry weapons openly? Camo, or camouflage clothing that copies battle fabrics has become high fashion. Our government’s ambitions for global control spawn violence in far places, all the time glorifying war and weap-onry. The local Cabela’s publicized its grand opening with a couple of pages of hand-gun ads. A Christmas ad from Big 5 Sporting Goods, “Great gifts at low doorbuster prices,” listed a Colt semi-automatic assault rifle for

$499.95. Peace on earth, good will toward men.

One 10-year-old study found that the average child watched 8,000 tele-vised murders and 100,000 acts of violence before finishing elementary school. Yet television programmers claim there’s no connection between televised imagery and human behav-ior. Is that so? Then the TV industry should refund billions of advertising dollars to sponsors.

Two Surgeon General reports linked violence on television with aggressive behavior in children. What’s more, the National Institute of Mental Health found overwhelm-ing evidence that excessive TV vio-lence spills over into playgrounds and streets. One NIMH study of 732 children showed aggression, conflicts with parents, fighting and delinquency all correlating with the amount of television watched.

The Sandy Hook disaster could just as easily have happened in Marysville or Arlington since the roots of violence are planted deep here, too. While TV analysts point fingers at guns as the cause, we know better. We are a violent people. Most of us manage to keep it under control but not all. As Dr. Phil once said, fantasies are okay. Just don’t let them invade your reality. He could have just as well been addressing young people’s violent fantasies that injure or kill when acted out in the real world.

This Christmas, we’ll soon be unwrapping material gifts when the gift this world needs most is freedom from fear and want. Call it Peace on Earth. It seems odd that while we celebrate the birth of one who con-demned violence, we choose to do so little to cut it off at its roots.

ArlingtonAlthough a much lighter

level of snowfall has been predicted for this winter, the city of Arlington is still pre-pared in case it becomes a repeat of last winter, when the three-day weekend for Martin Luther King Jr. Day turned into a full week’s worth of snow-days for many Arlington residents.

Arlington Assistant City Administrator Kristin Banfield acknowledged that more than 400 staff hours were directly connected to the city’s response to that snowstorm alone, as even water service and distribu-tion specialists for the city were pulled off their regular duties to help clean up the thick accumulations of slush left behind, well after that snow finally stopped falling and started melting.

“Our city staff coordinated their 12-hour shifts to include their normal eight-hour workdays, so we were able to keep the number of overtime hours to a minimum,” said Banfield, who explained that the city of Arlington estab-lished priorities in order to enhance public safety and make efficient use of its avail-able resources.

Just as the primary snow routes — which included hospitals, schools and hills — were plowed and sanded before the city moved onto clearing its secondary streets and preparing for flooding

issues, so too does the city plan to deal with any sig-nificant snowfall this winter by first tackling its busiest streets, which connect the city’s neighborhoods to one another and to the state high-ways.

Among the city’s other pri-mary snow and ice removal routes are the streets used most frequently by public safety agencies, as well as the streets that are important to public institutions such as hospitals and schools, and the streets used by transit agencies. Non-arterial streets are not a primary priority for the city, but Banfield noted that city staff strive to address those routes as their time and equipment permits.

State highways that fall outside of Arlington’s primary snow and ice removal routes are main-tained by the Washington State Department of Transportation, just as streets outside the city limits of Arlington are maintained by other agencies. While city backhoes were hauled out last winter to remove verita-ble mountains of unmelted snow from Olympic Avenue and the side-streets of down-town Arlington last winter, the residents and storefront owners of Arlington’s main street were still faced with the task of making their por-tions of the sidewalk acces-sible to pedestrians.

“We have 162 lane-miles in the city,” said Banfield,

who added that the city of Arlington does not main-tain private driveways. “Of course, some roads are plowed and sanded con-stantly, such as the main arterials and primary snow routes, before we start sand-ing and snow removal on the secondary routes and residential streets.”

To assist the city Public Works Department’s efforts in the event of a future snowstorm, Arlington citi-zens are advised to remem-ber the following tips:

• If you’re experiencing a life safety emergency, call 911.

• Property owners are asked to maintain all the sidewalks abutting their property in a clean, non-slippery fashion, free of leaves, ice and snow.

• Whenever possible, please assist the Public Works Department by clear-ing catch-basins and snow-covered fire hydrants adja-cent to your property.

• Snow-shoveling can be very strenuous, so work at a comfortable pace for your health.

Following severe storms, the city will only pick up tree limbs and debris from trees that block city streets, since it does not have the resources to remove fallen tree limbs and brush from private property.

MarysvilleMarysville Public Works,

Police and Emergency Management personnel have been training, review-ing and preparing for when the season delivers its first winter storms, and they urge residents and businesses to be prepared, too.

City Public Works crews have already mobilized for the coming snow and ice by readying snow equip-ment, stockpiling supplies, training staff for emergency response and updating the city’s snow and ice routes map. Public Works and Emergency Management staff in recent weeks have also hosted pre-snow and ice meetings to share strate-gies and information with neighboring jurisdictions and utilities.

“We are well-prepared for any major snow and ice events that might impact Marysville this year,” Marysville Mayor Jon

Nehring said. “Our trained and dedicated snow and ice response teams are ready to keep traffic moving and motorists safe on local road-ways to the best of our ability and with the least amount of disruption, while protecting lives and property.”

The city Street Department maintains 196 miles of streets within the city limits. Street crews pro-vide 24-hour coverage, con-ducting periodic sanding and snow-and-ice removal to mitigate conditions dur-ing a severe weather event. An in-house database sys-tem tracks response to dis-patched crews in order to create more efficient work flow.

During events when snow and ice conditions are wide-spread, Street personnel concentrate their removal efforts on priority routes and arterials, such as State, 51st, 67th, 83rd and Twin Lakes avenues, as well as Fourth, Grove, 88th 116th, 136th, 152nd and 172nd streets west of I-5 in the Lakewood area, along with Sunnyside, Ingraham and Smokey Point boulevards. To view the Snow Routes map and for the most current infor-mation online about local

emergency or road condi-tions and preparedness, visit the city website at http://marysvillewa.gov. The web-site includes several interac-tive features, including an Emergency Alert Center that offers the latest updates. Take a minute to sign up and get emergency alerts sent to your email address and cell phone through the site’s “Notify Me” email sub-scription service.

Updates are also posted on the city’s Facebook and Twitter sites, as well as on the Marysville Comcast TV21 and Frontier TV25 cable access stations. You can also call the city’s message-only Emergency Alert Hotline at 360-363-8118, according to Community Information Officer Doug Buell. For water and sewer emergen-cies during business hours call 360-363-8100, or 911 after hours.

The city website also includes tips to plan for bad weather, in addition to other winter hazard and emer-gency preparedness-related links.

“The city of Marysville is proactive about prepared-ness,” Nehring said. “We urge residents to do the same.”

MARYSVILLE — The possible coming of coal trains to Marysville invit-ed the ire of Tulalip Tribal Chair Mel Sheldon Jr. and Silicon Energy President Gary Shaver during two separate and otherwise unrelated days of public statements.

During the public hearing for the proposed Gateway Pacific coal ter-minal on Thursday, Dec. 13, in Seattle, Sheldon emphasized his support for job creation while explaining his reasons for opposing a coal terminal that would add up to 18 round-trip trains per day through Marysville.

“This project proposes significant threats to our natural environment, including the contamina-tion of our waters, lands and traditional foods, and the impact to air quality that not only affects my people, but everyone in the region,” said Sheldon, who echoed Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring’s oft-stated qualms with the additional traffic delays that the coal trains would cause at Marysville’s 11 at-grade railroad crossings. “Never will the Tulalip support the degradation of our ancestral burial

grounds, as would result from this project.”

While Sheldon argued that such a coal termi-nal would put the Tribes’ treaty rights at risk, Shaver spoke with the press on Wednesday, Dec. 12, and deemed additional coal trains both an inconve-nience to his business and unnecessary in light of companies such as Silicon Energy making such strides toward providing “green energy.”

Silicon Energy’s facilities sit between the east side of I-5 and the west side of the train tracks in North Marysville, which makes them especially vulnerable to the impact of additional train traffic. Moreover, Shaver touted his compa-ny’s attempts to maximize its domestic resources as healthier for the economy and the environment than shipping coal to China.

“Between its solar and hydroelectric potential, Washington state is in a unique position,” Shaver said. “It could turn 100 percent renewable in its energy. As I’ve heard this coal train talk, it’s struck me as going backward, from a business standpoint and technologically. I lived in China for two years. I know what its air quality is like. You do not want that.”

ARLINGTON — For the past three years, the passing of Elliot Carbajal has inspired others to donate blood and organs in his name, as the Carbajal family has dedicat-ed multiple blood drives and organ donor registrations to Elliot, who was himself a habitual blood donor, and

whose kidney donations at death saved the lives of two separate people.

And on one of the most televised occasions of the New Year, Elliot Carbajal will be honored for his life-giving generosity by Donate Life America, whose “Journeys of the Heart” float will bear a “flora-graph” of his face as it proceeds along the route of the Jan. 1 Rose Parade in

Pasadena, Calif.On Sunday, Dec. 9, the

rest of the Carbajal family completed the flora-graph of Elliot’s face, by adding seeds for his eyebrows, during a commemoration of his life at the Gleneagle Golf Course.

While Carbajal family members lined up to sign individual letters written to each of the businesses and other organizations that helped support the Carbajal family blood drive in down-town Arlington on Saturday, Dec. 1, Elliot’s brother Adam Carbajal and sister Joyce Phillips looked back on how their efforts in their fallen brother’s name have expand-ed over the years.

“We got 76 blood donors this December,” Phillips said. “Our first time, we only got 19. The blood drive drew 51 pints during this year’s Hometown Holidays, and contributed to the 490 pounds of food collected for the Arlington Community Food bank. We’ve always wanted this to be the com-munity as a whole. Elliot believed in helping out the community any chance he got.”

Megan Clark, vice president of LifeCenter Northwest, explained that Donate Life America has honored 72 deceased organ, eye and tissue donors this

year through its annual Rose Parade float.

“We’ve made progress in making more transplants available to patients who need them, thanks to people like Elliot Carbajal and his family, but we still have a long way to go,” Clark said. “There are still people wait-ing for transplantable organs, which is why we honor those who donate their organs.”

The Dec. 1 Carbajal fam-ily blood drive registered 10 people as organ donors, and Clark added that people can even register as organ donors online at www.lcnw.org or www.donatelifetoday.com, although she agreed with Phillips that organ donors should inform their families of their decision.

“You should talk about your wishes to be an organ donor with your loved ones, so that it doesn’t come as a surprise to them at the worst possible time,” Clark said.

“I can’t imagine having to make that choice for some-one else without knowing their wishes,” Phillips said.

“It was easier because we knew what he wanted,” said Adam Carbajal, who stocked the restaurant tables with candy canes, not only because of the holiday sea-son, but also because candy canes were one of Elliot’s favorite foods year-round.

ARLINGTON — The Eagles remained unde-feated so far, after dealing the Panthers a 60-51 defeat on Tuesday, Dec. 18, at Arlington High School.

The Eagles are No. 1 in the Wesco 4A North divi-sion and the game against Snohomish was an in-league contest, which is good for Arlington as it brings their league record up to 3-0.

Although they pulled out a victory, the Eagles were just a step ahead of the Panthers, who kept pace with the Eagles’ scoring. The first quarter was just slightly in Arlington’s favor as they led Snohomish 16-12. Their 5-foot-10 guard Gavin Smoke and 6-foot guard Bradey Brummel made some great plays in the first quar-ter, both assisting in goals scored, as 6-foot-5 senior

Terry Dawn scored several times, including twice on free throws in the first quar-ter. Dawn scored a total of 29 points by the end of the game and had grabbed 10 rebounds. Those rebounds would prove essential to the success of the game as seen when Snohomish came within a few goals of tying the game.

Dawn led the scoring for the Eagles with 29 points, while AJ Passalacqua scored 10 points. Smoke scored six points — two 3-pointers — Noah Jones scored five points, Kaleb Bryson and Bradey Brummel scored four points each and Nate Lewis scored two. Bryson scored one 3-pointer, Dawn scored three 3-pointers and Smoke scored two.

Arlington has won seven games straight and now faces Shorecrest away on Friday, Dec. 28, at 7:15 p.m.

ARLINGTON — For Billy Main, a 14-year-old boy from Arlington, playing football on a state level isn’t just a dream saved for high school. As an eighth-grade stu-dent, Main was invited to attend the national Football University camp, while scouts observed his workouts, how he played and how he carried himself.

“He was picked for the Seattle team to play in the Washington versus Oregon rivalry game,” said Billy’s mother, Cassandra Main. “FBU is a national youth football league, kind of like the NFL for youth. There are 64 teams and they play against each other until the final game in San Antonio, where the winner is the national champion.”

Main plays left tackle and has been playing football since he was a little kid.

“I started playing while I was in first grade,” said Main. “I played in Arlington for five years and then played for the Marysville Knights for a year. After that I started play-ing for Stanwood.”

Main was excited that at the end of the FBU camp, he was chosen along with one other athlete to represent Western Washington on a state level.

“I was excited and even a little bit nervous,” he said.

The Seattle team competed against Eastern Washington on Sunday, Dec. 9, and won the state championship with a 20-0 final score.

“His team is the best in the state,” said Cassandra Main.

Unfortunately, the team lost their chance to move on in com-petition when Oregon took a 20-7 victory on Saturday, Dec. 8. Despite the loss to Oregon, Main is still proud of how he has improved throughout the years and has high hopes for his future.

“Eventually I want to play for the NFL, after college,” said Main, who has gotten attention from Lakewood, Eastside Catholic and Archbishop Murphy high schools. “I would like to play for Lakewood, because the coach there makes highlight videos and game videos that he sends to colleges. I think I’d have a better chance of getting into college that way.”

Although he is not yet certain where he will play high school football, Main has a thoughtful reason for wanting to play on a professional level.

“If I played for the NFL, I would use my money to build homes to help people who are homeless and on the street,” he said.

His mother is proud of him too, not just for how he played, but how he has shown good character throughout his training.

“I am very proud of the boys

and very honored to be their team mom,” she said. “They are all super talented and if any of them stay on the track they are on, we will see some of them in the

NFL. All these young men carried themselves and behaved well. I am proud of how they represented Washington to the highest stan-dards.”

fully stocked by about 12:30 p.m. Clark deemed this a significant improvement over last year’s time, espe-cially since a new wrinkle to this year’s Rotary Christmas meal basket assembly is that the drivers delivering those boxes of food were given maps of drop-off routes designed to ensure that none of them would spend much more than half an hour on the road.

“We’re very organized now,” Clark said. “We’ve got it down to a science. Each driver has been given two to five baskets to deliver, and their itineraries are much more efficient.”

Clark acknowledged that, while it may be a science, the Rotary’s assembly and delivery of Christmas meal baskets “is not an exact sci-ence,” and as such, had a few food items left over this year. In the event that this hap-pens again next year, she’s proposed identifying which families are large enough to warrant receiving those leftovers in addition to their boxes.

Dave Duskin, who’s volun-teered as part of the Rotary’s Christmas meal basket assembly and delivery for the past 20 years, recalled some adventurous treks into the remote reaches of the com-

munity to drop off his boxes.“I kept passing so many

‘No Trespassing’ signs that I was sure I was going to round the corner and find someone with a shotgun yell-ing, ‘No trespassing,’” Duskin laughed. “Even with all these computerized devices like our GPS units, it can be a challenge to find these loca-tions.”

Since the Rotarians had calculated that food for each Christmas meal basket would cost $65 apiece, they person-

ally donated $5,029 to pur-chase that food, an amount that Rotary itself will match and donate directly to the Arlington Community Food Bank.

“None of that funding comes from the Duck Dash,” said A.J. Chase, public rela-tions chair for the Rotary. “All our funding for this event is private. It’s a nice opportu-nity for our Rotarians to have hands-on interactions with members of our community who are in need. They’re so

appreciative to receive these meal baskets.”

“As we drive from home to work and back again, it’s easy to forget the poor exist, because we’re not going where they are,” said fel-low Arlington Rotarian and volunteer Wally Thomas. “They’re right here in our community, though.”

“The economy hasn’t quite bounced back yet, so I’d ask people to be generous and reach a little deeper,” Clark said.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington Police Department is aiming to keep an existing citizen education program going while starting another in the New Year.

The Arlington Police Explorer Post is facing the prospect of closure if it can’t get more youth involved by Monday, Dec. 31, accord-ing to Arlington Police Cmdr. Brian DeWitt.

If you’re between 14-20 years old, enrolled in school, maintaining a GPA of 3.5 or higher and have

no criminal record, you’re welcome to apply to the Arlington Police Explorer Post, so long as you’re also interested in law enforce-ment, physically able to per-form the duties required, have a minimum of driv-ing violations, and are will-ing to learn and to commit either 16 hours a month or 40 hours over the course of three months.

The Arlington Police Explorers Post meets twice monthly on Tuesdays between 5-7 p.m. For more information, contact

Arlington Police Officer Stephanie Ambrose via email at [email protected], or leave her a voice message by phone at 360-403-4636.

On Jan. 16, 2013, the Arlington Police Department Citizen’s Academy will begin its 10-week program, meeting each Wednesday from 6-9 p.m. and culminating in a graduation ceremony.

The Arlington Police Department Citizen’s Academy is designed to educate the public about

department policies, regu-lations, the criminal justice system and ways to reduce crime. The program allows members of the police department and citizens to

meet, share ideas and infor-mation, and interact in a positive and proactive set-ting. For more information, contact Arlington Police Detective Sgt. Jonathan

Ventura by phone at 360-403-4621 or via email at jventura@arl ingtonwa.gov, or log onto www.arling tonwa.gov/ index.aspx?page=465.

This lovely lady came to the shelter with an injured eye. After a long period of treatment, it had to be removed. She couldn't be happier! Due to having only one eye she will need to be indoors to keep her safe. She loves to play & roll on the floor to get your attention & is determined to get your attention on her. This pretty pet has plenty of personality and is ready for her forever home!

Shocko came into the shelter with a broken right tibia over a month ago. He is healing really well and is now waiting for some perfect family to take him home, treat him well, and make sure he continues healing. This poor guy has been through a lot and now needs some rest and relaxation. He is a sweet, active fella who can't wait to find the right family to take care of him for the rest of his life!
