THE NEWSPAPER AT THE HEART & SOUL OF OUR COMMUNITY

BY KIRK [email protected]

ARLINGTON — The 67th Avenue Final Phase Project is itself in its final phases, as construction crews work to complete the remaining infrastructure on the street, its sidewalks and its intersections.

“We’ve got two operational lanes now,” Project Manager Eric Scott said.

“That’s asphalt on all lanes,” said Bill Blake, who serves as the city’s project liaison. “No more gravel roads.”

C o n s t r u c t i o n crews are still installing the side-walks and drive-ways on the east side of 67th Avenue, after weather challenges in December and January caused the delays of cement and paving work that the city had expected to complete by the end of 2013.

“We’re still on time and on budget, though,” said Blake, who expects that both the roadway and Centennial Trail will be

ARLINGTON — The Arlington City Council voted unanimously on Tuesday, Feb. 18, to approve an envi-ronmental review for a pro-posed Urban Growth Area expansion for the city.

Paul Ellis, community and economic develop-ment director for the city of Arlington, explained that all the cities of Snohomish County are updating their

comprehensive plans to coin-cide with the county’s updat-ed comp plan by next year.

“This is part of a long pro-cess,” Ellis said. “If we expand the UGA, then 152 acres on the west side of the freeway, just north of Marysville, could eventually come into the city, if the property own-ers agreed to have it annexed. Before that can happen, though, these environmental and traffic studies need to be conducted, to make sure there are no adverse impacts.”

Ellis reported that not only Arlington, but also Everett, Stanwood, Sultan and Granite Falls are among the five cities in the county that are proposing changes to their urban growth areas, which he acknowledged usu-ally means growing those UGAs.

“All of the reviews for those proposed UGA chang-es are incorporated into one large county study, but each

complete by this summer. “The railroad crossing work should be done by the end of March, which will allow people to get across it in a safe manner, unlike now, where there’s no clear walkway.”

“And instead of testing out your shock absorbers on those timbers, the new railroad crossing will have a much smoother ride of concrete,” Scott said.

Blake and Scott added that the road improvements will even improve a new plaza, just across the street from the Stillaguamish Valley Pioneer Hall and Museum, featuring bench-es, garbage cans and art preserved in concrete, from foliage impressions to the winners of this year’s haiku contest at the Arlington-Stillaguamish Eagle Festival.

“A lot of our construc-tion workers come from Arlington, so they take pride in this project,” Blake said.

Scott praised Blake for his public outreach on this

project, from keeping the community informed to working with local busi-nesses and property own-ers.

“The landowners have been very understand-ing,” Blake said. “When we restore their property, we can’t recreate the exact details of how it was, but those folks have allowed us to make it as good, and even better than, it was before. We want to improve their yards and businesses, and help them function better.”

The paving work needs to be completed before the light poles can be installed, which Scott predicts will likewise happen this spring.

“We’ve also got the final layer left of asphalt, to bring it up to the bottom of the curb, which should also be able to be laid down this spring,” Scott said. “There’s a gap of about three inches between the asphalt and the bottom of the curb right now.”

That final asphalt lift is expected to take two days, and should account for the last of this proj-ect’s big delays, according to Blake. Indeed, to make

things more convenient for motorists, Blake and Scott suggested they might lay down the asphalt at night.

“This will all have a big impact on the heart of Arlington,” Scott said.

“It’s been interest-ing,” chuckled Gene Abel, owner of Ted’s Custom Upholstery, one of the businesses on 67th Ave. “But it hasn’t been all that bad. Sure, it’s slowed things down, but from now on, things are going to be awe-some. This will be a boon to the entire economy of Arlington. It definitely needed to be done, but I can’t wait for it to be done,” he laughed again.

While Abel did find road construction to be a chal-lenge occasionally, espe-cially on those few days when he couldn’t get out of his own parking lot, Greg Taylor of Arlington RV & Welding Supply was even more sanguine about the street improvements.

“It hasn’t really impacted us too much,” Taylor said. “The city has worked with us to keep our ingress and egress open as much as possible. It will be pretty nice when it’s all done.”

William “Hubb” Hubbell, owner of Hubb’s Pizza, echoed Taylor’s posi-tive assessment of the city’s efforts.

“This city has been as good of a partner as we could have hoped for,” Hubbell said. “This sort of construction work is never fun, but in the long run, it’s going to be bet-ter for everyone. I would have loved if we could have had fewer lane closures, but unfortunately, that’s just not the reality of the situation. The city was very good at communicating when those

closures would occur.”Hubbell declined to spec-

ulate on the impact of con-struction to his business, and instead expressed opti-mism for the near future.

“I want to thank all of our customers who drove through the construction

to come dine with us,” Hubbell said. “When it comes to the difficulties of construction, it is what it is, but we expect our business will come back to where it was.”

MARYSVILLE — The city of Marysville will be conducting its next meet-ing of the Transportation Benefit District’s Board on Monday, Feb. 24, dur-ing which the Board is set to hash out its bylaws and procedures, in addition to weighing which projects it might decide to take on, with the support of voters.

City of Marysville Public Works Director Kevin Nielsen explained that the TBD Board’s previous meet-ing had established that it operates under a separate budget and financing sys-tem from the city itself, and promised that the voters would be asked to approve or deny a sales tax increase

of 0.2 percent on the April 22 ballot, in order to fund transportation improve-ments.

“That would basically amount to 20 cents from every $100 that you spend,” Nielsen said. “As time has gone on, Washington state’s transportation revenues have steadily declined, so it’s hard to keep our infrastruc-ture at the level that our citizens would like to see. The city has to maintain the pavement of its streets, so that there are less potholes and bumpy roads.”

This would raise the sales tax rate in Marysville from 8.6 percent to 8.8 percent. Marysville’s tax rate would remain lower than most cit-ies in Snohomish County, which range from 7.7 per-

cent to 9.6 percent.Washington state has

allowed its cities to use Transportation Benefit Districts as a means of shor-ing up their transportation funds, by allowing the cit-ies to ask voters to approve sales taxes to fund those transportation projects.

“That way, it’s up to the citizens themselves,” Nielsen said. “And whatever sales taxes they approve stay within their own cities. If voters give us the go-ahead, the revenues we collect from them will not go to the county, but will go to benefit Marysville’s roads directly.”

These sales taxes would be paid not just by Marysville residents, but by everyone who shops in Marysville,

and uses its streets and ser-vices. The ballot measure is projected to generate about $1.6 million per year in rev-enue, and expire in 10 years.

While this is the ultimate goal, Nielsen hastened to add that the TBD Board is at “the beginning of the beginning” of its process.

TBD Board meets Feb. 24Marysville, Tulalip and

Everett citizens should mark their calendars for a “Coffee Hour and a Half ” conversation on Saturday, Feb. 22, with state repre-sentatives Mike Sells and June Robinson. The two lawmakers are hosting the meeting from 10-11:30 a.m. at the Marysville Library, located at 6120 Grove St. in Marysville.

Sells and Robinson rep-resent the 38th Legislative District in the Washington State Legislature.

The Legislature is just north of halfway through the 2014 legislative session. Sells and Robinson want to meet with citizens to review

what’s been happening in Olympia thus far.

Of course, this “Coffee Hour and a Half ” isn’t the only way citizens can make sure their comments get to the attention of their legis-lators. People who want to send a message to lawmak-ers can always call, toll-free, 1-800-562-6000, or 1-800-635-9993 for hearing-impaired citizens.

the go-ahead, the revenues we collect from them will not

go to the county, but will go to benefit Marysville’s roads

My story isn’t ground-breaking. My story is better than average,

and let me tell you, better than average isn’t bad.

Growing up, my parents worked hard at a small print-ing plant next to the Arlington Airport. Last year, I bought that print shop from my parents and have turned it into more than just printing to include graphic design, web site design and have pioneered a first-of-its-kind process of putting images into powder coating. Pretty cool stuff indeed.

About the same time last year, something funny happened to me. I had a baby. Okay, so it wasn’t me who had the baby, it was my beautiful wife. As I write this, our baby girl sits (suspi-ciously quiet) in her swinging chair, and looks up at me and smiles every once in a while. I don’t need the smile to re-confirm that what I’m doing to help the Boys & Girls Club is the right thing, but it’s sure a good reminder.

How does a print/design shop, an airport location and a new-born relate to the Boys & Girls Club? Let me tell you. I was just a kid when my parents ran the print/design shop, and they were

busy trying to make a living. Where did I go to spend after-noons that was safe and had fun activities? The (new at the time) Arlington Boys & Girls Club. Where is the Arlington Boys & Girls Club currently located? Near the Arlington Airport, after beginning on Olympic Avenue in 1974. In a few years, where will my daughter spend some of her afternoons? The same place I did, the Arlington Boys & Girls Club.

As a member of the Rotary Club of Arlington, I agreed to co-chair the Arlington Boys & Girls Club Expansion Committee, more specifically as the Arlington Rotary Club liai-son. When the current building was being planned and opened in 1992, Arlington Rotary played an integral part in funding, and to help find funding from other community members. With my personal involvement as a Boys & Girls Club member and Rotary’s history with the club, I

knew this was the perfect project for me and my time. If I was going to spend time away from my family, especially with my new smiling addition, this was where it was going to be.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Arlington Boys & Girls Club. To give you a perspective, in 1974 the city’s population was 2,000 residents. Today, the club alone has almost 2,000 school-age members. The current club simply needs more space to take care of our kids during out-of-school time. More space not only for sports, but for all the everyday activities that bring kids to the club.

The basic plan for the Boys & Girls Club is to double the size. We need another gym, a computer lab, teen center, more parking and a larger multi-pur-pose space.

Today, the club serves both Arlington and Lakewood schools, offers shuttles to pick up and drop off kids both before and after school, all the while providing a positive, safe atmo-sphere for up to 400 kids per day. During basketball season this mushrooms to almost 600 kids per day, and there’s no room for non-sport activity. In addition, the club rents eight

school gyms in both Arlington and Lakewood from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m. so the club’s teams have places to practice. The computer lab is needed for homework help, and the teen center is needed for the separation of the younger and older kids, which increases the overall attendance of both.

Parking is needed as well. If you’ve ever driven by on a Saturday during fall, winter or spring, you won’t find a parking spot literally within a half-mile in either direction, because of soccer, baseball, basketball and volleyball games and practices for our kids. It seems everyone in town is at the club to watch their kids, grandkids, nephews, nieces or neighbors play.

This project is, no doubt, a good cause, and what makes this a great cause is that we can actu-ally measure the results. We will expand on those measurements in a future article.

In closing, I am involved because the Boys & Girls Club affects kids in a positive way. It did for me, it did for many of you who are club alumni, it will for my daughter, and it will for your family. The effect lasts a lifetime and travels from genera-tion to generation.

ARLINGTON — A new monument of metal twisted into an organic form will mark the culmination of more than two years of dis-cussions and fundraising.

On Tuesday, Feb. 18, the Arlington City Council offi-cially accepted the Arlington Arts Council’s gift of a metal tree sculpture by artist Debbi Rhodes, which will be placed at the Centennial Trail, between Third and Fourth streets, when it’s complete.

Rhodes explained that the tree will be constructed of Cor-Ten steel, and will include both stainless steel and powder-coated orange “leaves.”

“The roots are actually going to be a sort of mirror image of the branches on the final product,” Rhodes said. “I changed the scope of the piece to give it a more cohe-sive statement, so I hope the viewer will feel the ‘Rooted Embrace’ that the title implies.”

Both Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney and Arts Council member Marilyn Oertle, also a member of the Arlington City Council, recalled Rhodes’s presentation to the Arts Council early in 2012, during which she brought a miniature model of her tree sculpture.

“Everyone was very enam-ored of the tree,” Oertle said. “The discussion led to enter-ing it into the ‘People’s Choice’ selection at our annual art auction. It won first place two years running.”

“Arts Council members persistently brought it up as a future project, but at the time, we were committed to

finishing the Sound Garden and the city entryway signs,” Arney said. “And as a result of our ‘Fall into Art’ auction, and our concerts at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center, we now have the money — $12,000, not including instal-lation — to commission the full-sized 12-foot-by-14-foot sculpture.”

“That location on Centennial Trail cries out for something spectacular,” said Oertle, who added that the project was approved not only by the Arlington Arts Council, but also the Public Art Commission and the Parks, Arts and Recreation Committee. “Arlington is rec-ognized as a ‘Tree City USA,’ so it seemed perfect.”

Rhodes admitted that she hadn’t even considered that angle when she first proposed the sculpture.

“Trees are very iconic, and Washington is known for its evergreens rather than its deciduous trees, so I thought it was a nice statement,” Rhodes said.

Rhodes expects the labor to create the tree will take her about 50 hours.

“I’ll be laser-cutting a lot

of the parts, but I’ll have to join all four pieces on the site, welding them together at the top,” Rhodes said. “I’ll still see it as more of a concept until it’s completed.”

“I love the tree and have promoted its acceptance from the beginning,” said Oertle, who also singled

out Arlington Arts Council Treasurer Jean Olson for her role in making this project possible. “Once I get behind a project, I do my best to make it happen.”

Arney hopes to see the tree bolted down to its concrete pad by this summer, perhaps even in time for Arbor Day.


MARYSVILLE — A Marysville-Pilchuck High School Class of 2005 grad-uate is receiving a broader spotlight for his unique wood sculpture artwork in Seattle.

Travis Petrie credits both his father Ted, and Mike Fitzpatrick, his former shop teacher at Marysville Junior High School, with fostering the woodworking skills that have been able to blossom within the past couple of years, thanks to some inher-ited woodworking tools, but it was Travis’ younger brother Cody who first inspired the series that Travis has come to call his “quote busts.”

“Cody wanted a tattoo of a quote by John Lennon for his 18th birthday, but he didn’t just want it be words,” Travis Petrie said. “So I made a design of Lennon’s face that incorporated the quote into the visual image.”

Look closely at Petrie’s head-and-shoulders busts of pop culture figures, ranging from civil rights leaders to influential musicians, and you’ll see words hidden in the lines of their heads and faces.

“I’ve done everything from Pokemon to Jesus,” said Petrie, whose roughly 30 pieces to date began as small 6-inch pieces made out of recycled material, and have since expanded into sturdy wooden pieces as tall as 4 feet. “Most of my first pieces were for family members.”

A number of Petrie’s quote busts are currently displayed at the Have a Heart medi-cal marijuana dispensary in Seattle, with whom he became involved out of respect for their work on behalf of the community.

“They’re donated a lot to families suffering from medi-cal ailments, and they’re really into supporting area artists,” said Travis Petrie, who’s also mapping out his options for having his work displayed in

gallery space in Lake City, just north of Northgate. “What I’ve liked about doing these quote busts is that what these people have to say is motivat-ing and inspiring. The right words can stick with you and change your whole life.”

“I’m just astonished by what he’s achieved,” Ted Petrie said of his son. “I’ve seen his skills advance, as he’s become more fluent in rendering facial architecture. The eyes of his pieces are like the Mona Lisa; they’ll follow you around the room. He’s a social activist who’s doing something he’s passionate about.”

“You should take pride in what you do, because everything matters,” said Travis Petrie, who cited his 19-month-old daughter Hazel Moon as another inspiration for his work. “Everything.”

ARLINGTON — Travis Hots, who already serves as fire chief for Snohomish County Fire District 22 in the Getchell area, has also stepped up to serve as fire

chief of Snohomish County Fire District 21 in the rural Arlington area.

Hots was hired after the Arlington Rural Fire District 21 Board of Commissioners chose not to renew Rick Isler’s contract as chief, but Hots will not be seeing an

increase in his salary of $110,000 a year.

“That was my choice, to show that the consolidation of the Arlington Rural and Getchell fire districts can work,” Hots said, noting that the two fire districts are now splitting the costs of his

salary and benefits, which had previously been paid by Getchell Fire District 22. “We’ve all redistributed our duties a bit, so we’re all doing a little more than we were before. Everybody has to do a little with a lot during lean times, and our area fire ser-vice has yet to recover from the reductions in assessed property valuations. We’re not even close to being back to where we were before.”

While Hots pointed out that he’s still relatively new to his second fire captaincy, he’s currently reviewing pro-cedures and familiarizing himself with personnel, with an eye toward ultimately improving both fire districts’ operations.

“I’m still in the evaluation stage right now,” Hots said. “But as I go through all the files and meet all the people at the Arlington Rural Fire District, I’ll be developing priorities for making chang-es.”

Hots comes to his new role with a wealth of experi-ence, having served 20 years in the fire service and four years in search and rescue, in addition to his father’s multi-decade stint in the fire service.

“Ever since I was a young kid, I knew I was going to be working in the fire service,” Hots said. “It wasn’t until I was 19 or 20 that I realized that I could make a full-time career out of it, though.”

Even after 15 years of full-time service in the field, Hots is still eager to go to work every morning, although he acknowledged that the significant amount of time spent away from his family has been taxing. With a resume that includes stints on the Marysville Fire District, the Lake Stevens Fire Department and Snohomish County Technical Rescue, as well as his role as vice president of the Snohomish County Fire Chiefs Association, Hots believes he has the know-how to help consolidate costs between the Arlington Rural and Getchell fire districts.

“We’ll see what jobs can be reassigned to spread the work around,” said Hots, who compared this to his other role, as the Snohomish County Fire Resource Coordinator. “When a large fire overwhelms the resourc-es of one geographical area, we provide assistance from around the state. I muster up local personnel to assemble them on specialty and strike teams.”

Hots praised the hard work of the firefighters in both fire districts, add-ing that all but one of the Arlington Rural Fire District personnel are volunteers.

“They’re enthusiastic whether they called out at 3 in the morning or 3 in the afternoon,” Hots said. “We all care about the people in our communities, and will strive to provide enhanced levels of service.”

MARYSVILLE — Sunnyside Elementary is among 46 Western Washington schools to benefit from BECU’s 13th annual awarding of more than $100,000 in community grants to support education projects that help promote student excellence.

Sunnyside Elementary librarian Nancy Bono explained that BECU’s award of $2,389.20 to her school will be used to purchase eight Chromebook laptops to supplement the seven exist-ing desktop computers in the library, most of which are about a decade old.

“We’re teaching about 300 students in the third, fourth and fifth grades how to devel-op the technological skills to research the answers to ques-tions, and to find information that’s accurate and reliable, through the use of digital media,” Bono said.

From there, students are tasked with presenting that information clearly and concisely through applica-tions such as Word and PowerPoint.

“We want them to use critical thinking and prob-lem-solving skills to evalu-ate information from the Internet,” Bono said. “We’re also making sure they learn how to use that information in an ethical way, by citing their sources in a proper manner, and not plagiariz-ing.”

It’s increasingly difficult for students to meet those needs with the current crop of computers at Sunnyside, especially since one of the desktop machines’ monitors just went out on Wednesday, Feb. 19.

In the meantime, Sunnyside fourth-graders such as Serenity Turner, Coby Kolling and Philip Reed have been working at researching and presenting information on the Oregon Trail.

“It’s been hard to try and find the right information to put into our presentations,” Kolling said.

Still, all three students have been pleasantly surprised by how much they’re enjoyed the project, with Reed appre-ciating the teamwork behind it, while Turner welcomed learning more about subjects such as Fort Kearney.

“I thought this would be boring, but it’s been kind of fun,” Turner said.

ARLINGTON — Detectives with the Snohomish County Sheriff ’s Office are looking to speak with anyone who may have witnessed a vehicle col-lision that left an 18-year-old Stanwood woman, a passen-ger in the vehicle, dead at the scene on Sunday, Feb. 16.

The incident occurred around 11:30 a.m. that day, when a black Lexus travel-ing at a high rate of speed

on 240th Street NE left the roadway between 123rd and 131st avenues. The 19-year-old driver and an 18-year-old male passenger, both from Arlington, sustained minor injuries.

Detectives are interested in speaking to one witness in particular — a white male believed to be in his 50s or 60s, with gray hair, wearing a gray sweatshirt, walking eastbound

on 240th Street NE at the time of the accident. Anyone else with information about the incident is asked to call the Sheriff ’s Office Anonymous Tip Line at 425-388-3845.

The release of the name of the female victim is pending from the Snohomish County Medical Examiner. The crash remains under investiga-tion by the Sheriff ’s Office Collision Investigation Unit.

MARYSVILLE — Members of the Marysville Chapter of Soroptimist International recently pre-sented a check for $1,500 to the Marysville-based Kloz 4 Kidz.

Kloz 4 Kidz provides free clothing to school-age children in need in the Marysville area, and dona-tions of new or gently used clothing are always appreci-ated.

“I feel strongly about Kloz 4 Kidz because it’s a grass-roots program started by a visionary group of women who recognized the need for all school-age children to have acceptable cloth-ing for school,” Marysville Soroptimist Co-President Teresa Trivett said. “They’ve worked tirelessly to bring their vision to reality. Kloz 4 Kidz has been a huge suc-cess, and has clothed liter-ally thousands of children in the greater Marysville community.”

The Soroptimists’ dona-tion will be used by Kloz 4 Kidz to purchase items such as new socks and under-wear, since those items can’t be accepted used, while shoes can be donated used.

Kloz 4 Kidz Director Lynn Brittingham expressed her gratitude to the Marysville Chapter of Soroptimist International for helping them provide clothing to children in need.

According to Brittingham, shoes are one

of the least donated, most in-demand items at Kloz 4 Kidz, whose volunteers diligently clean used shoes, and all other used items of donated clothing, before placing them on their shelves and racks.

“We wash and mend everything,” Brittingham said. “We will not put out clothes that are missing a zipper or a button. If we

wouldn’t hand it out to our own kids, we won’t give it to the families who come to us.”

The Kloz 4 Kidz volun-teers’ responsiveness to their client families’ needs is why their informational pamphlets and website are available in both English and Spanish, and why they take care that at least one volunteer is available to

escort each child through their selection of clothing items, even when families have multiple children.

“Nobody here is paid,” Brittingham said. “We pay for a phone line and that’s pretty much it. We depend on donations and grants to exist.”

For more information on Kloz 4 Kidz, log onto www.kloz4kidz.org.

ARLINGTON — When Leilani Lucrisia conducted a recent presentation on DNA and family research for the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society of Arlington, she hadn’t expected the number of attendees who arrived.

“We typically only have 30-40 people show up for a meeting,” said Lucrisia, who found herself fac-ing between 70-80 attend-ees at the Arlington Free Methodist Church on Tuesday, Feb. 11. “I suspect interest in DNA is en vogue now, thanks to TV shows like ‘Who Do You Think You Are’ and ‘Finding Your Roots.’ It’s becoming more mainstream, although retired people still tend to have more time to devote to it.”

Lucrisia recounted how tracing back the roots of her own ancestry led her to Alaska, and led her to dis-cover a number of different racial mixtures in her own heritage.

While there are a num-ber of DNA testing agen-cies to choose from, Lucrisia was quick to tout

the research resources of the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society itself, whose information is freely available to members and non-members alike. Its next informal research group meeting will run from 10 a.m. to noon on Thursday, Feb. 27.

“We have how-to classes in beginner’s genealogy, and this August, we’ll be host-ing the Washington State Genealogy Conference,” Lucrisia said. “Our society is really hopping.”

The Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society offers a number of other research resources, including a Minolta microfilm reader and printer, at the Society’s Library at 215 S. French Ave. in Arlington, next to the old Arlington High School building.

Shirley Case, publicity chair for the Stillaguamish Valley Genealogical Society, explained that patrons of the Society’s Library may use the microfilm reader and printer to trace their own family histories, with-out needing to make trips to Marysville to copy images.

Case noted that the films in the Stillaguamish Valley

Genealogical Society’s Library contain more than 400 rare books on colonial America and New England, including pioneer histories and early land vital records. She added that the Society’s Library is an affiliate library with the Family History Center in Salt Lake City, “which means, when mate-rial is ordered, it is sent to our library to be viewed.”

The Society’s member-ship costs are $15 for one year or $150 for a lifetime, and members receive access to genealogy websites, which they can log onto at the Library or on their home computers.

For more information, you can call 360-435-4838, email [email protected] or log onto www.stillygen.org.

LAKEWOOD — Lakewood High School wrestling found itself peaking at the right time of the season, when four girls and five boys advanced to the State Tournament during the 2A District meet at Squalicum High School on Feb. 15.

It was a great night for the girls.

“We took five girls to Regionals, and four made it to State,” Lakewood head coach Tom O’Hara said. “We had a really good weekend. They wrestled fantastically.”

The four girls that are going to State are sophomores Makayla Jackson, Tommie Mosteller and Alexis Perry, and junior Katie Kortekaas.

Kortekaas faced a tough bracket but finished fourth.

Perry stood out when she went in as the fourth seed and defeated an opponent from the No. 1 seed from the Northwest.

In the boys, five wrestlers qualified for the Mat Classic in Tacoma. Senior Tristan Nelson took first place in the 285-

pound weight class. Other wrestlers who qualified

were junior Gage Gilbertson and senior Drake Mosteller, who placed third in their respective weight classes. Jeff Harrison made it to the 182-pound championship match, but lost to Sedro-Woolley’s junior Quinten Roppel, 13-17. Senior Deven Jackson qualified for State when he placed fourth in the 285-pound weight class.

With the Cougars headed to the Mat Classic, O’Hara said, “Everything is washed away at State. We hope to bring home some medals.”

O’Hara said he told his wres-tlers he did not focus on the wins and losses of the season, but rather on the performances at State.

Lakewood wrestlers move on to State


ARLINGTON — Arlington’s wrestling team sent six kids to the State Tournament after they competed at the 4A Regional Tournament on Feb. 15.

The qualifying six went to the Mat Classic at the Tacoma Dome, which began on Feb. 21 and con-tinued to Feb. 22. The results were not available by press time.

“We were happy with the per-formance,” Arlington head coach Rick Iversen said. “We’re looking forward to the tournaments.”

Sophomore Jeremy Nygard won the Regional Tournament, in which he pinned his first two opponents, and won a decision against his last opponent. “He’s won every tournament he’s been in,” Iversen said.

Nygard has dropped weight from 113 pounds to 106 pounds during the season.

Iversen has high expectations for Nygard as he enters the tour-nament. “He is rated in the top three in the state,” Iversen said. “We believe he’s going to win the tournament.”

Senior Scotty Bardell took third

in the 152-pound weight class. Bardell is a seasoned wrestler, whom Iversen said had 10 or 11 years of wrestling under his belt.

Senior Tyler Lindberg also qualified in the 285-pound weight class. Lindberg had his first expe-rience as a varsity wrestler this year and was described as a true Cinderella story by Iversen.

Since entering varsity, Lindberg was the most improved wrestler, Iversen said.

“He has just improved and improved all year long,” Iversen said. “Now he is in the State Tournament. He came out of nowhere.”

Sophomore Jaylyn Rutledge advanced to the Mat Classic as well, as an alternate in the 100-pound weight class.

Go to the Arlington Times’ website at www.arlingtontimes.com to see the results of the Mat Classic.

Heading to the tournament, Iversen wanted to give a mention to wrestling coach Barry Knot who lost his life to pancreatic cancer.

Knott has been nominated into the Washington State Wrestling Coaches Hall of Fame.

ARLINGTON — After finishing 11-3 in conference and 19-3 overall in the reg-ular season, the Arlington High School girls basketball team has defeated two teams in the District Tournament playoffs, as of Feb. 20.

Arlington entered as the higher seed of the playoffs on Feb. 11, and topped two teams with a vengeance since then — literally.

In its first game of the playoffs, Arlington pum-meled Kamiak, 56-31, in retaliation for its previous 51-48 loss to Kamiak on Jan. 15.

“We’re really excited that we put ourselves in this position to go back to the Tacoma Dome,” Arlington head coach Joe Marsh said. “We get to play against the best teams around.”

The 4A Wesco North No. 1 team’s most recent playoff victory was against Jackson on Feb. 14. “We beat them by 19 points,” Marsh said. “We played four great quar-

ters of basketball.” The Eagles beat Jackson,

57-38, avenging their pre-vious defeat against them on Jan. 22, when they lost 58-56.

“We improved the last time we met them,” Marsh said. “It was a good team win.”

With Arlington journey-ing closer to the Tacoma Dome for the State Championships, Marsh said the Eagles keep get-ting better in every game. “People are starting to step up at the end of the year, and that’s what we need,” Marsh said.

During the season the Eagles had a lot to prove with their younger play-ers. A lot of the team’s sophomores had to step up throughout the season.

“I’m just really happy with how they improved,” Marsh said. “They’re not playing like sophomores anymore.”

Though the youngsters did exceed expectations, the veteran players have

also played a significant role in the Eagles’ season as well.

Senior center Lyndsay Leatherman has been a key defensive and offen-sive player for the Eagles, and took advantage of her height and strength. “We just need her to keep doing

what she’s been doing all year,” Marsh said.

It was arguably the Eagles’ tenacious defense that has carried Arlington’s basketball season so far into the playoffs. Marsh said that offensive powerhouse junior Jayla Russ has also impacted the Eagles’ run

in the playoffs, in which she scored 22 points in her most recent game against Jackson.

Arlington played Lynnwood on Feb. 21 for the 4A Wesco Championship at Glacier Peak High School. The results were not avail-able by press time.

“They’re the No. 1 team in State,” Marsh said. “We have to play a really good game to beat that team.”

Win or lose, Arlington is headed to the Regional Tournament. Results will be posted on Arlington Times’ website at www.arlington-times.com.


Lady Eagles advance to Regionals


ARLINGTON — The Arlington boys basketball team has steamrolled its way through the Wesco 4A District playoffs as of Feb. 20.

“We are excited to go to the Regionals,” Arlington Head Coach Nick Brown said. “We want to get in the top five.”

As the Eagles contin-ue their flight in Districts, Brown keeps the team’s goal simple. “We’re taking it one game at a time,” Brown said.

The Arlington Eagles entered the playoffs on Feb. 12 as the No. 1 seed with a conference record of 13-1.

The hard-nosed bunch made their first mark in Districts on Feb. 12 when they beat Kamiak 69-58.

Brown said there were some improvements to be made in that game, but the Eagles’ made up for it in another win on Feb. 15 against Edmonds-Woodway.

“It was a good game,” Brown said. “We played bet-ter in the second half.”

Arlington improved slight-ly in scoring since its first encounter with E-W. “We beat them by 10 the first

time,” Brown said. Arlington defeated E-W, 63-50, on Feb. 15.

Brown said it was the seniors’ overall performance that is driving Arlington’s success in the playoffs. “Everyone on my team is playing well,” Brown said. “We have good leadership.”

On Feb. 21, Arlington faced Jackson High School in the Championship game. Results were unavailable by press time.

Jackson was Arlington’s only loss in conference. Jackson beat Arlington 70-51. Jackson is currently No. 1 in Wesco 4A South, going unde-feated in conference in the regular season.

Jackson’s defensive pres-sure gave Arlington trouble the first time around. Brown hopes his Eagles are up to the job.

“Jackson is very athletic and strong. I hope we handle their sense of pressure better,” Brown said. “I also hope we shoot better.”

Win or lose, Arlington is headed to the Regional Tournament. Results will be posted at www.arlington-times.com.

ARLINGTON — When the Local Scoop restaurant reopens on Monday, Feb. 24, even its menus will still be the same.

Joe Frew and Steve Parker of Vanguard Northwest have acquired the establish-ment from Bev and Dave Angerbauer, and are set to reopen with half a dozen employees to start with, including new manager Dave Eddy.

“Dave is experienced in multiple food programs,” Parker said. “He has degrees in restaurant man-agement and the culinary arts. As developers, Joe and I have put in around 50 houses in Arlington, so we have a vested interest in seeing this community suc-ceed.”

While Local Scoop patrons will be able to walk back into the old restau-rant and order their favor-ites if they wish, Parker and Frew also have an eye toward gradually improv-ing the establishment over time, from refurbishing its decor to expanding its menu selection. While those changes are on track to occur over the course of several months, one change that customers will notice right away is the Local Scoop’s new hours.

“The Local Scoop used to be open six days a week, but now, we’ll be open on Sundays as well,” Frew said. “We’ll also be open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekdays. We’re really going after those breakfast and dinner customers.”

Weekend hours will be more flexible, since Frew and Parker agreed that the Local Scoop might close earlier in the afternoons on Sundays, but they prom-ised that Sundays would always serve breakfast and lunch patrons at least.

“With those expanded hours and days of ser-vice, we’re going to have to expand our number of employees as well,” Parker said. “This will become especially important as we grow to utilize all our space. What used to be a party room for special occasions will be opened back up as regular restau-rant space.”

With these other chang-es will come tweaks to the Local Scoop’s menu options, although the new co-owners hastened to reassure the community that even these changes would remain in keeping with the traditional feel of the restaurant.

“We might be adding some homemade ice cream to our flavors,” Parker said. “We’re also looking at offering hand-patties rather than frozen patties. These are things that will make people’s eating expe-riences more personal, and give the Local Scoop more of its own flavor. Dave even wants to give everyone free scones on our opening day,” he laughed. “He’s sure they’ll be a big hit.”

“We’re not going to demolish everyone’s famil-iar Local Scoop,” Frew said. “We’re just looking to mod-ernize it a bit. We won’t get rid of the hamburgers, but we’ll also offer some health food choices. Ultimately, we want to give folks what they want.”

“In the meantime, our first order of business is to get these doors open again,” Parker said. “Arlington is our home, and the Local Scoop is an icon here, so we couldn’t just watch it go away.”

“It’s already been closed too long,” Frew said. “This is the community’s restau-rant, and we’re happy to receive any suggestions.”


Local Scoop reopens Feb. 24


New co-owners Steve Parker and Joe Frew invite the community to the reopening of the Local Scoop on Feb. 24.

“We’re not going to demolish everyone’s familiar Local Scoop. We’re just looking to modernize it a bit. We won’t get rid of the

hamburgers, but we’ll also offer some health food choices. Ultimately, we want to give

folks what they want.”Joe Frew,

MARYSVILLE — Aaron Wight and Sean Wallner were both veteran home-brewers with the Stilly Mashers, who had an affin-ity for well-crafted beer and a propensity for swear-ing that, one day, they’d get around to coming out with their own beers, until their wives finally challenged them to make good on their promise.

From this seed was born Marysville’s first craft brew-ery, Whitewall Brewing, whose name is a play on the combined last names of its founders, and whose taps are set to begin flow-ing at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 1, in Suite 1 at 14524 Smokey Point Blvd.

“The craft beer market is exploding, so I doubt we’ll be alone in Marysville for long,” Wallner said. “What we have to offer is a selection of beers that we wouldn’t put on tap if we wouldn’t drink them our-selves. We wanted to share what we’ve been creating in our garages for years with the surrounding commu-nity.”

“There’s a distillery in Marysville, and it seems like there’s a new craft brewery opening every week in Seattle, but we couldn’t believe that there were no craft brewers in Marysville,” said Wight, who expressed his respect to the Skookum Brewery for cornering the market in Arlington.

Wight and Waller built Whitewall Brewing out of donations and saved-up pennies — in one case lit-erally, with a bar counter that’s covered in donated pennies, encased in glass — so that they can open up debt-free, and they look forward to offering regu-larly returning patrons a rotating variety of about five beers at any given time, plus hard cider and root beer on tap.

“We’re sticklers for qual-ity because we’re beer geeks,” Wallner laughed. “We’ll do what we know well, and we hope that’ll keep people coming back.”

McCoy’s bill establishing Native American Heritage Day passes Senate

OLYMPIA — Native American Heritage Day is one step closer to becoming an official state holiday, under a bill passed on Friday, Feb. 14, by the Senate.

Senate Bill 6078, sponsored by Sen. John McCoy, D-Tulalip, would declare the fourth Friday in November a state and school legal holiday. Under state law, state

offices and schools are already closed the day immediately fol-lowing Thanksgiving Day.

“This holiday is extremely sig-nificant to the many tribal mem-bers in our state,” McCoy said. “It offers people a chance to celebrate the culture, traditions and lan-guages of Native Americans.”

Only two other states have designated days honoring Native American heritage as state legal holidays. SB 6078 now goes to the Washington State House of Representatives for consider-ation.

NEWS BRIEFS


MARYSVILLE — Some balloons, newspapers, tis-sue paper and construc-tion paper added up to some family bonding time in school on the afternoon of Wednesday, Feb. 19, as Shoultes Elementary invit-ed its Hispanic families to come make piñatas in the school’s cafeteria gymna-sium after classes were out for the day.

Shoultes Elementary Principal Lynn Heimsoth credited Sandra Chavez, the English Language Learner natural helper, with coor-dinating the communica-tion to the school’s Hispanic families about this event.

“I wanted to get the Hispanic families together here to help them become more part of the school

community,” Chavez said. “A traditional activity like piñata-making seemed like the perfect thing to get them excited to do just that.”

Heimsoth echoed Chavez’s assertion that get-ting Hispanic parents and families more involved in Marysville schools benefits not only the Hispanic stu-dents, but also the commu-nity as a whole.

“By giving Hispanic families an activity to do together in the school, it gets those parents more engaged in their kids’ schools,” Heimsoth said. “The more engaged those parents are, the better their students will do in school.”

Students and parents started out by layering inflated balloons with papier-mâché shells, cour-

tesy of old copies of The Marysville Glove, after which layers of tissue paper and construction paper were added to give the piñatas color and extra frills like horns.

“From there, we’ll fill the piñata shells with candy,” Heimsoth said. “The Marysville Globe was our sole source of news-papers, the tissue and construction paper came from our school supplies, and I bought all the candy myself,” she laughed.

Of the roughly 40 Hispanic families who were invited, at least half were able to take part, which Heimsoth considers a decent attendance figure.

Julieta Montes is a new Shoultes Elementary par-ent this school year, since her son just started kin-

dergarten, but she already knew enough about her new school to agree with its mission and practices.

“It’s very important to get kids involved in activi-ties at school,” Montes said, with Chavez serving as her translator. “I feel like we are being noticed through these events. The school is recognizing diversity and taking care of its families.”

“They treat me the same way they would treat anyone else,” said fellow Hispanic mom Lucia Ortiz, also translated by Chavez. “I’m very happy here.”

“We love to have our families come to our school for any reason,” said Heimsoth, who touted Shoultes’ monthly coffees for Hispanic families. “I want them to see this as their school.”

“ C h u c k ” B e r n a r d O’Neill passed away peacefully at home in E l l e n s b u r g , W A , o n Febr ua r y 1, 2014, after a long battle with cancer.

Chuck loved the outdoors, especia l ly boat ing, watersk i ing, camping, and snow skiing. His passion in life was being a tow truck operator. He started as a apprentice at S.L. Savidge learning the body and fender repair. Later in life he opened his own repair shop in Lynnwood, WA, where he became very successful. In the 1950s, Chuck decided to have a career change and began employment at Allstate Insurance where he was an adjuster for storm damage. Chuck missed the fender repair business and decided to go back to the job he loved. He managed various body shops in Skagit and Snohomish County. In 1980 Chuck purchased a tow service in Arlington, WA. The business was successful and expanded to Stanwood and Smokey Point. He also had an answering service and a pilot car service for oversized loads.

In 1989 Chuck was injured while responding

to an accident on I-5. He was hit by a vehicle a n d s p e n t many months i n hospit a l s and underwent many surgeries. Despite doctors telling him not to, Chuck went

back to his passion, the job of towing. After 25 years in the towing business, Chuck and his wife Elaine retired to Ellensburg in 2006.

Chuck is survived by his wife Elaine O’Neill, Ellensburg, WA; The mother of his children, Ann O’Neill, Arlington, WA; His daughters Kathy (Steve) Sanchez, Big Lake, WA; Joan (Dean) Jensen, Stanwood, WA; Peggy (Dave) Wilson, Mukilteo, WA; and Mary (Randy) Kemple, Arlington, WA.

Wendy and her sister, Savannah are a bit bashful here but once they are in their forever home their personalities will be revealed. Wendy has striking black and white markings and a cute pink nose.

Meet Charlie! This guy is active, playful and in need of new owners who can provide him plenty of exercise and teach him manners. Charlie has lived with kids, other dogs and cats. Charlie is going to need to learn to be crate trained until he understands the rules of the house such as housetraining and what he can and can't chew on.

The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.When you buy firewood write the seller’s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord.

GIG HARBOR — An Arlington artist is making a landmark difference to another community.

Arlington Arts

Council member Verena Schwippert’s works are familiar features on the Arlington landscape, between the salmon spawning pool on the trail south of Burke Street, the

“Dedicated to the Beauty of Earth” artwork on Fourth Street, purchased by Virginia Hatch in honor of her husband, and most recently, “Waterline” in the park adjacent to Lebanon Street, across the street from Les Schwab.

“Verena gave us a really good deal on ‘Waterline’ a few years ago,” Arlington Arts Council President Sarah Arney said of the three huge, highly polished granite boulders. “It’s a real tribute to the power of the river.”

Schwippert, a stone sculptor who often uses granite from the Cascade Mountains, was again in her element when she was commissioned to create three large granite mussels for a piece called “Mussel Beach,” which was fund-ed by Percent for the Arts from the Washington State Arts Commission, and will be part of Gig Harbor’s Eddon Boat Park.

“There will be a ribbon-cutting for the entire park, which is a Washington State Historic Heritage site, and an extensive environ-mental cleanup and resto-ration project, with help from the Department of Ecology,” Schwippert said. “The entire project took 10 years to complete.”

Schwippert’s sculptures will be located within an ADA-accessible area at the southeast corner of the park, and the ribbon-cut-ting will commence at 3 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 28.

Schwippert person-ally invested more than 600 hours in sculpting the mussels, and extended her thanks to Pat Barton, Carl Nelson, Bob Leverich, Travis Brown, Reg Akright, Norbert Jäger, Tracy Powell, Martin Beach, Michael Gardener, Ken Barnes, Tom Monaghan and Mike Sweney, as well as the Washington State Arts Commission, “with-out whom ‘Mussel Beach’ would not be. Eddon Boat Park is also a wonderfully successful restoration proj-ect.”

“Verena is one of our extra-special community treasures,” Arney said. “Her sculpture in Gig Harbor is so perfect for the location. The beach itself is now named ‘Mussel Beach,’ after her sculpture.”

little piece of that study has its own price, so that each city pays its fair share,” Ellis said. “The study should commence the week after its approval, and will probably go pretty fast to begin with, to the point that it should be halfway done during the spring, with a final completion date expected around the late summer or early fall. The drop-dead deadline is June of 2015, when all the results have to be into the county.”

Although small changes are made to each city’s comp plan on a yearly basis, this marks the eight-year period during which major changes are required to be incor-porated into comp plans statewide.

“The public will want to keep their eyes out for any public hear-ings on the comp plan,” Ellis said. “We want their participation, which is why hearings will be scheduled throughout the next year, as pieces of the new comp plan come for-ward and are resolved into a draft form. If people want to see what the updates will be, getting their input into it is a good start.”

The environmental review will cost $57,065.37, to reimburse the county for Arlington’s portion of the study, and will include traffic analysis and modeling, as well as amendments to the county comp plan, and property characteristics for population calculations and proposed zoning.

“This study will look at the potential traffic impact on all our roads, and how they could be affected if the urban growth area is annexed and developed at the same level of density as the city,” Ellis told the City Council on Feb. 18.

“Will this study look at the impact on those roads if mass transit services are provided there?” Council member Debora Nelson said.

“I don’t know,” Ellis said. “We’d have to take that to Community Transit.”

When Council member Jesica Stickles asked if the county could deny the city’s request to expand its UGA even after paying for the study, Ellis admitted that this is a possibility.

“If this ultimately gets approved, how long will the annexation pro-cess take?” asked fellow Council

member Jan Schuette, serving as mayor pro tem in Arlington Mayor Barb Tolbert’s absence.

“Typically three to four months,” Arlington City Attorney Steve Peiffle said. “That’s not taking into account any appeals, though.”

Ellis added that the city is pay-ing for half the cost of the study now, and will pay the other half when the study is halfway com-plete, to get a better idea of what the final cost will be.

“We’ll make sure that any extra dollars that aren’t spent on the study will come back to Arlington,” Ellis said.

UGA FROM PAGE 1


ARLINGTON — Village Community Services’ Voices of the Village musical per-formance ensemble received $2,225 from Opus Bank on Friday, Feb. 14.

For Claudia Teague, the representative of Opus Bank in Marysville who presented an oversized check to the

group during one of their regular Friday open-mic jam sessions at the Arlington United Church from 1-3 p.m., this donation struck a personal note.

“Our foundation is all about trying to find com-munity service organizations who are in need of a little help,” said Teague, whose sis-ter, Norine Vanney, has an adult son in the band. “I’ve

seen how being part of this band has helped my nephew Jerry grow and given him a lot of confidence, by giv-ing him opportunities to come forward as part of a group. I sent Opus Bank the information on Voices of the Village, and they earmarked their funds for Village Community Services to go to the band.”

Voices of the Village and the Village Music & Arts program, both for people who have developmental dis-abilities, are part of Village Community Services, which supports adults with disabili-ties in achieving their per-sonal potential at home, at work and in the surrounding community.

Jon Dalgarn first orga-nized the band around a decade years ago, and he remains the leader of its current roster of nearly two dozen members.

Voices of the Village includes vocal and instru-mental positions for adults with a wide range of disabili-ties, who have played instru-ments as diverse as drums, keyboards, accordions, ban-jos, saxophones and even an Australian didgeridoo.

Dalgarn had already worked with adults with disabilities through Village Community Services’ resi-dential and vocational assis-tance programs, but with Voices of the Village, he believes that he’s been able to address another area of their development.

“It really changes their lives,” Dalgarn said. “By being able to express them-selves in this way, they learn a bit more about how to deal with the world, and the world learns how to deal with them. This is the best gig in the world, because there is so much unmitigated joy in their performances. We hand microphones to people who, in many ways, didn’t have a voice, so that they can sing and hear other people clapping for them. It’s about way more than music. They have a real passion for it.”
