project in Darrington.“From the very beginning, we made two

promises to the families and communities of Oso, Darrington and Arlington — and to everyone who gave so generously to our fund,” said Dr. Dennis G. Smith, president and CEO of United Way.

“The first was that 100 percent of all donations to our Disaster Recovery Fund would go to disaster relief; none of this money was spent on United Way’s admin-istrative costs or overhead.

“The second is that we were committed to long-term recovery.”

Smith said there is $645,000 remaining in the recovery fund.

Examples of distributions to families and individuals include:

•$599,000 for temporary housing, rent, mortgage payments and replacement household items;

•$452,000 for emergency cash to meet immediate needs;

•$200,000 for medical and mental health care;

•$130,000 for gas cards to cover the cost

of driving around closed Highway 530;•$42,000 for youth and educational pro-

grams;•$33,000 for memorials and scholarships;

and•$25,000 for funeral-related travel

expenses.Corporate donations were used to pay

for the increased community infrastructure necessary for slide response. About $1.6 million was used to support community organizations and specific programs.

Examples of distributions to community organizations include:

•$452,000 for first responders in Snohomish County and neighboring juris-dictions;

•$444,000 for increased administrative costs and programs;

•$240,000 for economic development;•$229,000 for youth programs; and•$207,000 for disaster case managers,

working directly with families impacted by the slide.

United Way’s Disaster Recovery Fund received support from more than 12,000 individuals from all 50 states; 86 corpora-tions and foundations, all but two based in Washington State; and 150 individual fundraisers and benefits.

by the time you’re done.”Ballenger noted that the

day’s other donations were based on the number of laps Morris completed, so the total amount raised was still being added up as of press time.

Morris is a man of few words, but the back of his T-shirt bore the message that the YMCA has helped him “in mind and spirit.” The 25-year-old believes his experiences at the Y, start-ing at age 18, have helped him remain positive.

Ballenger has seen Morris

drag dumbbells for 20 laps in an hour, but he deemed this arduous task a natural outgrowth of the much-less demanding adaptive fitness training that he offers not only to Morris, but to those with disabilities ranging from teens to seniors.

“We routinely do a one-mile outdoor course with hills,” Ballenger said. “It includes not only mobility training, but also getting across the street safely. We serve a lot of adults with developmental disabili-ties at the Y, and we’re just as concerned with giving them the independent liv-ing skills they need.”

Ballenger pointed out

that Morris has been the recipient of several fun-draisers, as a young man with cerebral palsy, but this marks the second year that Morris has been able to generate donations for other disabled adults.

“This will pay for pro-grams to serve those liv-ing with disabilities, even if they’re not members of the Y,” said Ballenger, who expected Morris would raise around $2,000. “A lot of our programs don’t require disabled people to join the Y, or they heav-ily subsidize their member-ships.”

MARYSVILLE POLICE

Senior Aerospace – Absolute Manufacturing of Arlington and the Marysville School District team were big winners at the United Way of Snohomish County’s Community Caring Campaign March 12.

Senior Aerospace won the President’s Award and the school district coalition won the Labor Partnership Award.

More than 500 representatives of companies, nonprofits, school districts, labor unions and gov-ernment agencies in Snohomish

County celebrated the close of the campaign drive.

The largest single contributions come in the form of grants from the Employees Community Fund of Boeing Puget Sound ($1.86 million) and The Boeing Co. ($725,000).

United Way of Snohomish County will be celebrating its 75th anniversary in 2015. Josh O’Connor, the publisher of The Herald, and Larry Hanson, pub-lisher emeritus, will co-chair United Way’s 2015 campaign.

“2014 was a deeply moving

year for Snohomish County with the devastating mudslide last March and the school shooting in October,” said Dr. Dennis Smith, president and CEO of United Way of Snohomish County. “As often happens, however, these chal-lenges brought out the best in our community: generosity and resiliency.”

Senior Aerospace – Absolute Manufacturing won the President’s Award in part for almost doubling the money they raised, tripling their corporate gift and tripling employee participa-

tion. Several of their employees live in Darrington, which made choosing to do their Days of Caring project at the Darrington Community Center an easy deci-sion. Trina Massingale, who ran the campaign, won an Employee Campaign Manager of the Year Award.

The Labor Partnership Award went to the coalition of groups involved in the Marysville School District campaign.

They put their United Way cam-paign on hold after the shooting at Marysville-Pilchuck High School

but decided that one way to help the community move forward was to come together and finish the campaign.

Jerry Goodwin was the United Way’s 2014 campaign chairman and CEO of Senior Aerospace.

The money raised through this campaign supports 106 multi-year grants addressing immediate needs in priority investment areas identified by community mem-bers and long-term needs through United Way initiatives focusing on education, financial stability and English language learners.

MPD catches bank robber

MARYSVILLE – Marysville police quickly caught a bank robber just 100 yards from the bank when a police dog found him hiding in some bushes Friday night, March 6.

MPD Cmdr. Robb Lamoureux said police were able to respond so fast because of a 911 hang-up call made by a Home Street Bank employee while the robber was still in the bank.

Lamoureux said the rob-ber pointed a handgun at a bank employee, demanded money and fled.

Police arrested a 22-year-old Texas man who was found with a handgun and a large amount of money. He was being booked into

jail for investigation of first-degree robbery.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington City Council considered cost-savings measures and infrastructure improve-ments March 9.

City administrator Paul Ellis pre-sented a review of the NOVAtime 4000 Software electronic timekeeping system.

“Currently, all our employees use paper timecards to record their vacations and shifts,” Ellis said. “Everything’s entered in manually.”

Ellis touted NOVAtime as compat-ible with the city’s existing software, and suggested leasing rather than buy-ing it.

“If we lease it, we’re not tied to it if we decide to change our software, and they’ll be the ones to maintain it,” Ellis said.

Although leasing would cost the city $660 a month, Ellis expects savings, when compared to the hours that staff spend entering data manually.

“Is this going to be able to handle differentials due to different employee groups and unions?” council member Marilyn Oertle asked.

Ellis replied: “NOVAtime is very in tune with the needs of municipalities. They know that each bargaining group has its own rules.”

When fellow council member Jan

Schuette expressed concerns about pay data being stored online “in the cloud,” Ellis assured her that sensitive information such as Social Security numbers would not be compromised.

Ellis noted that the city was still checking the reviews NOVAtime had received from other cities, some of which were negative, and would opt for another option if the negatives outweighed its positives.

Public works director Jim Kelly pre-sented the plans for the new park-ing lot and protection storm drain at Haller Park. City staff has completed

the bid package for construction of a 38-stall lot next to the public works building, as well as a storm drain system in Cox Avenue to protect the water quality of the Haller well field.

Kelly added that the project would include crosswalks and at least eight lights.

“It’s smart to do all these at the same time,” Ellis said.

The construction estimates are $170,000 for the parking lot and $55,000 for the water-quality improve-ments. The council will vote on this project March 16.

Ellis returned to address Frontier America’s Best Communities Award. A team from Washington State University is writing a grant proposal on behalf of Arlington and Darrington for the award, and the Snohomish County Economic Alliance will sub-mit the grant and act as the fiscal agent. Ellis hopes to see this award help foster retail and industrial broad-band Internet access, to make the area more attractive to businesses.

If the weather is any indication, spring is right around the corner. That means it’s time for our fifth Clean Sweep April 6-11.

It’s hard to believe this volunteer cleanup began only five years ago as a graffiti paint-out event. Our community has made Clean Sweep a one-of-a-kind event in a short time.

One major focus is beautification of public right of way – specifically along some of our higher-traffic corridors like State Avenue, and 51st and 67th avenues. I’m not just talk-ing about cleaning up lit-ter and mowing the grass. We want to add visually pleasing trees, shrubs and flowers.

If you’ve driven south along State Avenue from 88th you’ve seen bunches of daffodils growing in landscaped plots along the railroad tracks. Our goal is to expand that to 172nd. Adding visual appeal to our roadsides is one way we can share that pride with anyone who visits.

Our city gateway signs are another way we intro-

duce our city to visitors, so our Clean Sweep volunteers will work with staff

to tidy up the landscaping and plants around those signs.

All that hard work will help showcase the return of our hanging basket pro-gram this May. I always feel a great sense of community when I drive into our city and get to enjoy those bright, colorful baskets of flowers hanging along State.

Another area of Marysville that will benefit from our Clean Sweep vol-unteers is Mother Nature’s Window park property, the remarkable natural pre-serve located along 100th Street near 55th Avenue.

From old-growth tim-ber to flying squirrels, this 35-acre parcel has the potential to be a treasured open space that future generations can explore and enjoy. Our first step

in opening this property to the public is a thorough cleanup, and that’s where our volunteers come in. We have a lot of work to do this year, including devel-oping a master plan for the future of the Mother Nature’s Window property so we can move forward with plans to open this magnificent piece of nature to the public.

At last year’s Clean Sweep, we had 43 volun-teers contribute more than 129 hours of service. We painted 625 feet of fencing along 51st Avenue and near the roundabout wall on 108th Street. We cleaned up Freeway Park by pulling weeds, planting summer flowers and grasses, and painting planter boxes.

We removed old, dam-aged playground equip-ment from Foothills Park, and we completed wetland cleanup work at the library, at Munson Creek and in Jennings Park. It’s amaz-ing what our community can achieve when we work together. I look forward to seeing what we can accom-plish this year.

Along with our outdoor Clean Sweep efforts, we’re again offering our annual Shred-A-Thon from 9 a.m. to noon on Saturday, April 18, at City Hall. This is an extremely popular event that gives our residents the chance to safely and efficiently gets rid of old documents. I want to thank all the sponsors and volunteers for making this possible.

As you’re out in the community, don’t for-get about our annual Pride of Marysville neighborhood improvement awards.

Each year, we rec-ognize those neigh-bors and businesses who take pride in their property and help enhance the appearance of their community.

If you know a local business, or a par-ticular homeowner or block/neighborhood, that exemplifies pride of ownership and has outstanding curb appeal, please nomi-nate them for the

2015 Pride of Marysville award.

There are four cat-egories: Best residential property (Pride of the Neighborhood), best block/neighborhood, best business, and the Mayor’s Choice – James Comeford Award focused on improvements in the

downtown/waterfront dis-trict. If you’re interested in nominating someone, please visit our web-site, marysvillewa.gov, and search for “Pride of Marysville awards.”

ARLINGTON — During its final prep session before the state tournament here Saturday, the Arlington High School Knowledge Bowl team was challenged with questions ranging from verb tenses and literature quotes to math problems, historic scientific discoveries and political events.

AHS sophomore Benjamin Rosenthal will join seniors Quinn James, Dakota Brenner and James Piscioneri in competing at state at the AHS campus March 14 at 9:30 a.m. While their teammates engaged them in practice after school March 9, the team’s biggest obstacle could be its lack of compe-tition to date.

“We haven’t had any challenges, and we’ve come in first in every match,” said Quinn, who acknowledged that the team has benefitted from being placed in the 3A division, down from 4A last year.

Faculty advisor Ben Mendro admitted that his concern is making sure “they don’t

get complacent.”Still, with hour-and-a-half practice rounds

every week, using questions that have come up frequently in previous Knowledge Bowl competitions, Mendro credited his students with being well-prepared. “This is probably the most exceptional team we’ve had in the past ten years,” he said.

Mendro touted the value of Knowledge Bowl to its participants, not only in forcing them to think quickly, but also in reinforc-ing the lessons they’ve received in class.

“It validates what they’ve learned,” Mendro said. “I’ve heard so many kids at competitions, not just from our school, say, ‘Thank God for Mrs. So-and-So’s class.’”

While Knowledge Bowl covers a broad swath of random facts, Hi-Q is limited to a set body of information. On March 10, Arlington’s Hi-Q team came in first with 53 points against Lake Stevens with 28 and Meadowdale with 19. The Hi-Q finals are set for Tuesday, March 17, at Archbishop Murphy at 9:45 a.m.

Both speakers were asked how they run school board and city council meetings so students could better understand the procedures and what is accomplished at those meetings. The stu-dents also were curious about the offices where they work. McDuffy invited and later took the children on a tour of the district office.

The Marysville Pilchuck soccer team works out on its home field, while the Arlington High boys practice their skills on the putting green at the Gleneagle Golf Course in Arlington this week.

Brandon Adam/Staff Photo

Golfers from Marysville-Pilchuck and Marysville Getchell practice at Cedarcrest Golf Course, while Arlington’s and Marysville Getchell’s soccer teams practice on their home fields.

LAKEWOOD — The Lakewood girls golf team returns two varsity players.

Senior Kendal Hurd enters her second year of playing, and so does sopho-more Brooke Forsell. They qualified for district last year, coach Chris Walster said.

Lakewood also has freshman potential, Bailey Dixon, who “has had a very exciting start to the season,” Walster said.

Rival Kings won the state 1A championship last year and is returning a number of players, Walster said.

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Getchell softball team returns seniors captain Kymber Devlin and Kaitlyn Bombach, juniors Ashlyn Sievers and Della Willem and sophomore Katie King.

“We do not know that much about newcomer Arlington but Marysville-Pilchuck, Stanwood and Everett all return strong teams,” Mike Moran said.

Meanwhile, MG enters its fourth year as a base-ball program with the goal of winning its first division

championship, coach Gerry Klep said.

It will be “counting on” senior outfielder John Clark, sophomore infielder and pitcher Collin Montez, sophomore outfielder and pitcher Zac Townsend, senior shortstop and pitch-er Austin Richburg, junior shortstop and pitcher Cameron Burns, and senior outfielder and pitcher Collin Mahony.

MG’s tennis team returns nine varsity players, the most the four-year program has returned, coach Andrew Christopher said.

“I’m optimistic we should be competing for one of the top spots in our league,” Christopher said. “Marina Ciferri just missed going to state last year as a sopho-more, and she has come back ready to go this year, as a junior.”

MARYSVILLE — The Marysville-Pilchuck track team is predicting four returning members to do well this season.

“Both our boys and girls squads are looking at a ‘reload’ scenario this year as we lost so many key seniors

from 2014,” coach Randy Davis said. M-P returns senior and defending long- jump champion Austin Joyner.

Other tracksters are Bianca Acuario, who will run the sprints, and foot-ball star and wrestling state champion Killian Page.

“We also have a good crew of newcomers from freshmen to first-year seniors that the coaches are excited about,” Davis said.

For throws, M-P returns Corbin Ferry who is “one of the best returning discus throwers around.”

Also, the M-P softball team returns seniors Kayla Tocco and captain Kayla Tocco. M-P’s goal is to win the 3A Wesco North title and a berth into state, coach Aaron Zachry said.

“Everett will be a solid squad this year, only gradu-ating one senior last season,” Zachry said. “Both MG and Stanwoods programs are on an up swing so should make for some good ball this spring.”

ARLINGTON — The Arlington baseball team returns six varsity players.

“Tanner Bradford and Garrett Wiseman will be two of our starting pitch-ers,” coach Scott Striegel said. “Both got considerable varsity pitching experience last year.”

The boys soccer and golf teams at Arlington High School have large turnouts, but the girls golf team is small.

But that doesn’t mean the girls aren’t going to be good.

The Lady Eagles return two-time state 4A quali-fier junior Emmi Modahl. Coach Greg Dailer expects

her to return to state, and for junior Natalie Mackey and sophomore Marina Vu to join her.

The boys golf coach, Kevin Coghill, said two of his top returnees from last year have improved a lot.

“They got hooked on the game,” Coghill said of Austin Foe and Conner Stephens.

His other top returnee is senior captain Bishop Kiner.

Coach Mike Gudgeon said the same thing about the soccer team, but with 13 returnees and 34 turning out, he expects the Eagles to be strong.

Top returnees include: Seigo Hall, a senior mid-fielder who was all-league as a sophomore, but injured last year; junior goalkeeper Nick McDonald; and soph-omore forward Stephen Caponey. Gudgeon said he is excited about the new turf at Arlington that the Eagles will play their home games on.

Gudgeon expects rivals Stanwood and Marysville-Pilchuck to be their tough-est competitors for the Wesco North title.

MARYSVILLE — Former Olympian and Marysville-Pilchuck alum Jarred Rome returns to Marysville with his throwing clinic to excite young athletes about track March 14 at 10 a.m. at M-P.

The event is open to any-one willing to hone their throwing skills or just get

introduced to the sport. “When I first heard about

it, it didn’t sound real at first,” Rome said.

For Rome, the clinic almost didn’t happen after the M-P shooting tragedy, but he then thought it was what the Marysville com-munity needed.

Rome decided to make it bigger, adding Olympic hopeful David Pless,

who will coach shot put, and two-time Olympian Duncan Atwood returns to coach javelin. The clinic also will have four collegiate national champions from Concordia University.

“It brings everyone clos-er together then they were before,” Rome said

To register, visit www.

jarredrome.org/register, or you can register on the day of the clinic at 9 a.m.

Registration fees are $100 for athletes and $125 for coaches. Groups of five or more athletes from the same school is $85 per person.

Proceeds go to the M-P track program.

TACOMA — The Arlington girls basketball team took fourth in state after edging West Seattle 41-40 at the 3A state tour-nament March 7.

“Getting the fourth-place trophy is fantastic,” coach Joe Marsh said. “We talked about it all year long. We had a fantastic season.”

Arlington’s Jayla Russ led with 12 points hitting three for five 3-pointers, and teammate Serafina Balderas added 10 points with three for seven 3-pointers.

“In the first half we didn’t play very well, but we kept chipping away,” Marsh said. “This the hardest-working team I’ve ever worked with.”

After a contentious first half with six lead chang-es, Arlington found itself behind 21-18.

It got even tougher for Arlington when they missed some shots in the third quarter falling behind 25-18, but Russ and Balderas scored a 3-pointer each to put the Eagles back

in the game 26-24 going into the final quarter.

After trading goals in the final quarter Russ and Balderas added two three’s to get ahead of West Seattle 38-31. After Arlington hit another putting the score 41-35, West Seattle snuck in a run to get the score 41-40 with only seconds left. But Arlington kept the ball safe on its last possession just long enough to win it.

To advance to that game, the Lady Eagles beat Wilson 59-56 behind Gracie Castanada’s 18 points.

Meanwhile, the Marysville-Pilchuck boys basketball team lost its con-solation match to Bellevue 81-45. M-P’s Michael Painter scored a game-high 19 points and also led the team with five rebounds and four assists.

The Wolverines dominat-ed in every category, making 16-of-28 field goals (59 per-cent), 11 of 18 three-point-ers (61 percent) and 16 of 19 free throws (84 percent). M-P started strong with a 10-5 lead, but was eventu-ally outscored 24-13 in the

first quarter and could not recover. Though it was a stinging defeat, Coach Bary Gould is looking to take the

program to “the next level.” “The young kids in the

select program are excited about Tomahawk basket-

ball,” Gould said. “Success typically has a tendency to breed success.”

Planet Fitness features 22 big-screen TVs, cardio machines and a 30-minute workout area.

MARYSVILLE – If you haven’t worked out since high school or just don’t like the he-man attitude at many gyms, Planet Fitness’ Judgment Free Zone may be just what you need.

“It sets us apart,” club manager James Hessen said, adding many of their clients are “first-time gym users.”

The gym is set up more for general fitness than for big, muscular men and women. There are plenty of cardio machines and weights, but not the huge barbells and free weights. “We’re not a gym, we’re Planet Fitness,” Hessen said, emphasizing their slogan. It does all it can to make visitors as “comfortable as possible,” he added, includ-ing private showers.

Another special part of the gym is a

30-minute workout routine area for those short on time. A green light goes on for a minute as you go to each of 20 stations. The red light goes on for your 30-second resting period in-between.

Classes limited to just five people are available for only 30-minutes each on arms, legs, abs, shoulders, back and chest. Without having to pay extra for a trainer, one will also work with you on setting up an individual workout.

Since the business is new, it is offering low rates to get people in the door through March 31. For additional costs clients can get unlimited use of massage chairs, hydro-massage and tanning beds, among other benefits. For details, contact Hessen at 1346 State Ave. or 360-386-9986.

SMOKEY POINT — “We’re the largest exporter by value,” Richard White, manager of state and local government relations for Boeing, told the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce March 10.

“We’re the single-biggest private employer in the state of Washington, and half of all Boeing jobs are here in Washington.”

After offering a brief his-tory of Boeing, including its military contracts in the first and second World Wars, White cited statistics showing that the average Boeing employee salary is $90,000, as opposed to the average salary of $50,000 for the state as a whole.

He credited a significant part of Boeing’s job growth in the state in the past decade to Washington’s tax incentives.

With that growth has come returns to the com-munity, in the form of $53 million in corporate and employee contributions from Boeing in 2013 alone.

White cited early learn-ing as one of Boeing’s pri-mary investments, asserting that 80 percent of what we

learn comes from before the age of 5. “How do we give the right tools to the right teachers?” White said.

White credited the Puget Sound region with supply-ing “a good percentage”

of Boeing’s labor, and acknowledged “limiting factors” in the numbers of incoming commer-cial pilots.

Boeing has also focused on devel-oping “green die-sel” aviation bio-fuel, conducting the world’s first flight with a blend of green diesel and petroleum jet fuel in December of last

year. Even as the aviation market becomes more glob-al, White cited the number of air traffic control systems that haven’t caught up to digital yet.

ARLINGTON — Third-grader Nikole Christian’s favorite part of the Kent Prairie Elementary Kiddies’ Carnival was the “troll bridge,” as she took aim at the tufted-hair plastic crea-tures with a Nerf crossbow March 6.

Nikole had a bit better aim than her kindergarten sister Autumn, who pre-ferred the bouncy house in the school cafeteria, but they still had as much fun as their father Caji.

“The kids get to talk to their friends and have fun, but for us, it’s fun to see how much extra effort the school puts into this,” Caji Christian said.

Sydney Costello, treasur-er and co-chairwoman of the carnival, estimated the carnival drew as many as 1,000 attendees, and gener-ated around $4,000 for the school PTA, mostly through the silent auction and food

sales. “It was a really popu-lar theme, and the kids got excited about decorating the school,” Costello said.

“Parents loved seeing the school principal and staff join in. When the librar-ian is serving nachos and the teachers are taking tick-ets for games, you see how

dedicated they are to this school. It’s a great commu-nity spirit builder.”

Costello explained that the carnival proceeds are spent on student enrich-ment programs ranging from field trips to technol-ogy including iPads and electronic whiteboards.
