SMOKEY POINT — Former Arlington Mayor Margaret Larson was treated to more than a few mem-ories of her years of service with the Arlington School District and the city as the awardee of this year’s Lifetime Achievement breakfast ceremony at the Stillaguamish Senior Center on Wednesday, Sept. 19.

Dale and Dave Duskin, co-chairs of the Lifetime Achievement fundrais-ing breakfast program, became well acquainted with Larson when they were high school students, since she went to work in 1966 as secretary to the high school principal, before her later move to the district offices, where she served as payroll director

for 10 years and retired as finance director in 2002.

“We knew there’d be a big crowd because everyone loves Margaret,” Dave Duskin said. “When we reminded her that this event helps raise funds for the Stillaguamish Senior Center, she jumped right on it.”

“I can’t think of anything better than giving to this organization,” Larson said, after telling Dave and Dale Duskin, “You two were whiz-bang boys. I never saw a kid in high school I didn’t like, and I never met a person in city government I didn’t like.”

ARLINGTON — Dozens attended the fifth annual Friendship Walk and Car Wash on Saturday, Sept. 22, at Legion Park, and raised more than $2,500 for Village Community Services and its Village Music and Arts Program.

“This started as a fund-raiser for our band Voices of the Village and our music and arts program,” said Michelle Dietz, director of development at VCS. “It was just two par-ents who volunteered to get things started and it went from there.”

In addition to raising funds, the event is also held to help bring together the community, particularly to include adults with disabilities.

“The goal of the event is to raise awareness about people who have disabilities in our community and celebrate their

abilities,” said Dietz. “Our band is an example of talent and joy for life.”

The Voices of the Village band is made up of several adults and children who use the VCS ser-vices and enjoy making music and performing for a crowd. Their presence helped to bridge the gap between adults with disabilities and other members of the community.

“My uncles are in the band and they are handicapped,” said Kennedy McCarter, 10. “I come here to support them.”

McCarter’s uncles — Sean McCollum and Jimmy Miller — are an essential part of why the Friendship Walk began. Their mother, Vicki Adams, is a board member at VCS and is one of the two volunteers who got it started.

bridge the gap,” said Adams. “This year we had a white dove release, face painting, the Reptile Woman, a little cooker from the Point Church. We are hoping to build an event that people will come to, with their kids, to enjoy.”

Adams told the story of how she adopted McCollum and Miller. “When I first met Jimmy, he was 9 years old. I ran a daycare, and he would sit in a ball and rock back and forth,” she said. “After spending time in my daycare, with all these normal kids around him, he got better. He’s been able to develop a lot more from interact-ing with other people.”

It’s important for Adams, and other parents of people with dis-abilities, to have their children interact with others. “That was the feeling we wanted for this event. To make it safe for people to inter-act and become friends with them. But it’s hard to bridge that gap. We don’t want pity. We want to be looked at as valid members of the community who have a purpose.”

Other parents, including Norine Vanney, agree.

“My son, Jerry, plays the bongos in the band,” she said. “We’ve been coming from the time it was first organized. A lot of people have never had experience with dis-abilities and it opened their eyes. Our kids are not as different as everybody thinks. They are not someone to be scared of.”

Jerry Vanney is a musician in the Voices of the Village and has found success there.

“He’s got a great memory for technology,” said Norine Vanney. “He’s done remarkable things.”

And Jerry isn’t the only mem-ber of the Vanney family to find

happiness in the music and arts program — his niece, Lexi Vanney, is a singer.

“My uncle is in the band and I’m a singer,” said Lexi Vanney, 11. “I’ve been singing my whole life. I used to sing ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star’ but now I sing Adele, mostly.”

Melissa Vanney, Lexi’s mom, says that the Friendship Walk is important to her and her family. “Lexi has special needs as well. She has sensory integration disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,” said Melissa Vanney. “I really like the Friendship Walk because I like to see different peo-ple come out and support people with special needs. Their disability

is not something to be scared of. I wish everyone in the community would realize that these people are not monsters.”

One of the songs that Voices of the Village sings is “Everybody’s got a Light to Shine” and Tim Adams, husband of Vicki Adams, said that the lyrics are particularly applicable.

“It’s been a life-changing expe-rience having Sean and Jim in our lives,” he said. “It’s taught us unconditional love and acceptance of people no matter what they look like on the outside. Not just people with disabilities either. I think the song lyrics make a lot of sense in that way. Everybody has a purpose.”

Village Community Services is presenting the second annual Halloween Concert and Costume Contest on Saturday, Oct. 27, at the Byrnes Performing Arts Center at Arlington High School from 3-5 p.m. The cost is $10 per person or $35 for a family.

“These events provide an opportunity for people with severe developmental disabilities to interact with their community so people can see them as indi-viduals with a personality and likes and dislikes. They are valued members of the community,” said Dietz.

For more information about Village Community Services con-tact their office at 360-653-7752.

awardees to have been born in the Arlington hospital. Born Margaret Halverson in 1937, she met John Larson in Arlington High School, before they graduated together in 1956 and got married in 1957.

John’s death in 2001 and her own retirement from the Arlington School District in 2002 left her open to be drafted to run for mayor in 2003, allowing Margaret to follow John’s 11 years in that office with eight years of her own.

Even before her time as mayor saw her co-founding the Arlington Education Foundation and taking an active hand in the Arts Alive fund-raising to build the Linda M. Byrnes Performing Arts Center, Margaret Larson has been active in her home-town for more than 55 years, support-ing her husband’s activities with the local Lions Club and Masonic Lodge before serving eight years on the Board of Directors of the Josephine Sunset Home, where John Larson went to live after stepping down as mayor due to health reasons.

“It’s all about the people,” Margaret Larson said. “I’ll always remember the wonderful people I’ve worked with.”

“You changed the philosophy of this city from, ‘You can’t do that,’ to, ‘How can we help you?’” Dave Duskin said.

Bob Drewel, executive director of the Puget Sound Regional Council, praised Margaret Larson as someone who’s made a difference in many people’s lives without expecting any-thing in return.

“She’s always understood that good people make a good community,” Drewel said.

“It’s people that make it work, not politicians,” Larson said.

ARLINGTON — The Downtown Arlington Business Association ush-ered in an almost entirely new Board of Directors on Wednesday, Sept. 19.

With the resignations of Chris Bateham and Chris Mirante occurring in the months prior, the resigna-tions of four other Board members — M.J. Drush, Debora Nelson, Julie Tate and Mary Andersen — were accepted at the Sept. 19 DABA meeting and made effective immediately.

In their place, DABA installed remaining Board member Marilyn Bullock as the new president, Nola Smith of “The School Box” as vice president, “The Purse Lady” Debbie Whitis as secretary/treasurer, Rich Senff of Action Sports in Board Position 1 and Tyler Moore of Pepperjack Home in Board Position 2. These new officers were nomi-nated under DABA’s rules of order.

Contrary to word that had circulated previously, Mary Jane Harmon empha-sized that DABA will not be dissolving on Wednesday, Oct. 3.

“As valuable as volun-teers are to any organiza-tion, when they decide to resign, we must let them

go,” said Harmon, managing director of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce, under whose umbrella DABA oper-ates as a committee of the Chamber. “We want to thank the previous Board members for all the time and effort they invested in DABA this year.”

Harmon also reassured the Arlington community that DABA-supported events such as the October Hunt, Hometown Halloween and Hometown Holidays “will be the wonderful events that Arlingtonians have loved for several years now.”

During a discussion of expenditures at the Sept. 19 meeting, Senff moved to freeze expenditures until the new treasurer could review DABA’s financial situation, and the motion was passed. At the same time, that meet-ing’s committee reports included Whitis’ notes that the October Hunt is still scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 13, in the City Hall parking lot, and Smith’s solicitation for ideas to contribute to Hometown Holidays, which are still planned for the first weekend in December.

“Everything is and will continue to be transparent,” Harmon said.

Drush reflected on what she deemed DABA’s great accomplishments over the

past few years — including the Clock, the Gazebo and “the characters that line the streets during different sea-sons” — while acknowledg-ing what she saw as strains between DABA and “its parent organization,” the Chamber.

“Sometimes the best thing about goodbye is good,” said Drush, who specified that she spoke only for herself, and not for her fellow former Board members. “When the vision of the parent is differ-ent than that of the child, it is a constant struggle and it wears you down.”

Drush questioned the Chamber’s decision to conduct its fall soiree on Camano Island, rather than Arlington or Smokey Point, and contrasted this with what she saw as the former DABA’s practice of doing business with Arlington people.

“It remains to be seen if those who align themselves more with the Chamber’s vision for downtown Arlington will be success-ful,” Drush said. “For the sake of the town and mer-chants, I do hope they are. I will continue to shop and eat downtown to support my local small businesses, and be grateful to those who choose to offer goods and services here, when they could relocate elsewhere.”

In the meantime, DABA’s October Hunt will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Oct. 13, this year with a giant boun-cy house and a complete

section for kids with its own booths, where they’ll be able to sell or trade their toys for Christmas money. These booths will cost $5

each, with all proceeds going toward Kids’ Kloset in Arlington. Call Whitis at 425-508-0435 for more information.

Habitat is the key to salmon recovery, but ongoing loss and damage

of salmon habitat is driving down salmon populations across west-ern Washington and threatening tribal treaty rights. No matter how well we manage harvest and hatcheries, if there is no habitat, both the salmon and our treaty-reserved rights are lost.

Unfortunately, the state of Washington continues to ignore its obliga-tion to enforce one of the first laws on its books that requires fish passage at culverts under roads. The state has been ignoring that obligation for more than 100 years. Today, hundreds of state-owned culverts block fish passage throughout western Washington. Meanwhile, the state has been unwilling to hold its own agencies accountable, refusing to enforce its own environmental laws.

The problem got so bad that the tribes were forced to ask the federal courts to step in. Almost five years ago, a federal judge issued a summary judgment saying that our treaty-reserved fishing rights prohibit the state of Washington from allowing fish-blocking culverts under its roads.

State agencies told the Legislature back in 1995 that fixing culverts was one of the most cost-effective strategies for restoring salmon habitat. The cost and benefit ratio, they said, increases right along with the number of culverts repaired per year increases.” In 1997 state agencies estimated that every dollar spent fixing culverts would generate four dollars worth of addi-tional salmon production. Recent studies support the state’s findings.

Unfortunately, not much has changed since the court ruled in favor of the tribes and our treaty rights. While the Department of Natural Resources appears to be taking its responsibility seriously, the same cannot be said of the Department of Transportation. DOT’s lack of commitment to fish-blocking culverts — and obeying state laws — hasn’t changed.

Before the 2007 summary judgment, DOT was correcting about ten culverts per year — three using funds appropriated just for culvert fixes, and seven more as part of highway projects. Since the court’s ruling DOT is still only correcting about three culverts per year with its dedicated culvert funding, but has actually decreased the number of repaired culverts to eight per year.

DOT can’t make the excuse that increasing funding to fix culverts will affect state general fund programs such as education. DOT uses only funds from the state transportation budget for fixing culverts, and that budget is separate from the general fund. Clearly, DOT doesn’t feel that it must respect the court’s ruling that it is violating the treaty-reserved rights of the tribes.

There are still 930 more culverts for DOT to fix. At this rate, it will take more than a century to repair only the culverts that are currently blocking fish from many miles of available habitat. All the while, more culverts will fail and block salmon.

It’s this same failure to address habitat that got us in this situation to begin with. The state will not enforce its own laws or respect the treaty rights of tribes, and there is no accountability. All of us, both Indian and non-Indian, are losing hundreds of thousands of salmon for every year that DOT fails to fix its fish-blocking culverts. The state needs to stand up to its obligation to the salmon, the tribes, and everyone else in this state and fix those culverts.

Billy Frank Jr. is the chairman of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission.

LETTERS TO THE EDITORThanks for supporting the food bank

The Marysville Community Food Bank wishes to extend a huge thank you to the organizers and volun-teers of the Helping Hands, Linking Arms Food Drive that concluded last weekend. And, a big thank you to the citizens of Marysville for the tremendous support of this effort.

At a time when the Food Bank shelves are the lowest of the year, 10,218 pounds of food and $1,186 was delivered to our doorstep on Tuesday by a incredible force of volunteers.

A reminder to small businesses

After purchasing several prod-ucts as gifts from a well-known Arlington business, our family member (the recipient) found that one of the items didn’t fit. She and her partner, with receipt in hand, entered the business and kindly requested to do an exchange. They were met with skepticism and a less than cordial attitude. They live out of the area and are not your “typical” couple.

As others entered the store, including my husband who had been detained outside and is well known by the owners, they were greeted with a friendly smile and “Hi, how can we help you today?” When the business owners were then introduced to our family member by my husband there was a surprisingly remarkable change in their attitude. Our family mem-ber felt slighted and disrespected as she experienced the sting of

discrimination that is all too com-mon.

Whether black, white, gay, straight, tattoos or piercings that are attached to every visible orifice, people must be treated with equal and mutual respect. Acceptance of an individual does not mean agree-ment.

We all struggle with prejudice but to small-business owners I say, if you want your business to thrive in this economy, take a good look in the mirror and ask yourselves why you are any more precious in God’s eyes than any other one of his creations. And then treat everyone accordingly. One business in town has now lost our patronage.

Women’s rights?Offensive! That is what Suzan

DelBene’s latest television ad was to me. First, because of the internet and all sorts of editing programs, she was able to insert her opponent, John Koster, holding “yes” and “no” signs as if in answer to what she perceives are women’s rights. Taking your opponent out of con-text and deliberately misstating his/her positions is the kind of politics we can no longer afford. We should require our candidates address our serious economic and social prob-lems with reasonable, thoughtful responses not with cheap shots, lies and ad hominem attacks. Second, regarding the issue of “women’s rights,” there is actually only one “right” specific to women, the 19th Amendment adopted by the States in 1920 stating that “rights of citi-zens of the U.S. shall not be denied … on account of sex.”

All the other rights, both natu-ral — a.k.a. Laws of Nature — and

of Nature’s God and those estab-lished by the Bill of Rights and other adopted amendments to the Constitution are all available to all citizens of the U.S. equally.

Finally, Ms. DelBene has con-fused the passage of laws with “rights.” Laws can be challenged and/or changed by one judge in one court of law while “rights” are upheld for all citizens in perpetu-ity. She uses as rights, the “right” of women to abortion on demand and to birth control. One is a law, the other is just a product available to consumers. Since the Supreme Court has granted abortion, it would take another legal court case to change that law — but even the Supreme Court cannot confer the status of a “right.” Mr. Koster could not forbid a woman from seek-ing or getting an abortion, period. Regarding birth control, again there is no law forbidding the use of birth control, and therefore, there is no argument. However, I believe what Ms. DelBene is really saying is that it and abortion should be free. While I cannot speak for Mr. Koster, I, personally, do not agree to pay for someone else’s birth control or abortions, just like I don’t pay for cigarettes, gambling or liquor either for those who make those lifestyle choices.

Living in a “free” country means each citizen is “free” to make his/her own lifestyle, academic, social and political choices with the rights in the Constitution applying to all citizens; however, none of those mean they are also “free of charge.” I suspect that Mr. Koster would never in a million years deny a woman to make her own choices as allowed by the law, and he actually would uphold her “right” to do so.

SMOKEY POINT — Dozens of area residents took the opportunity to get free health screenings at the Cascade Skagit Health Alliance’s free community health fair on Saturday, Sept. 22.

The health fair took place from 9 a.m. to noon, and offered screenings for blood pressure, body mass index, bone density, glucose, pulse oximetry, sleep disorders, as well as diabetic foot screen-ings. Several local health care providers held presen-tations on urology, diabetes education, family medicine, orthopedics and pediatrics.

“We’ve had about 100 people come through,” said Catherine Russell, com-munity relations director at Cascade Valley Hospital. “A lot of people who came in did so because there is so much unemployment and a lot of people don’t have health insurance right now. This is an opportunity for them to come in and get checked out and meet face-to-face with health care pro-viders.”

One of the most popular of the free screenings was the glucose test.

“Diabetes is a big prob-lem in our area, so it’s real-ly important for people to come and get checked out,” said Russell.

Richard Jauch came from Camano Island to participate in the free health fair.

“I wanted to find out how my body is working and get a little bit more down to the nitty gritties,” he said. “I wanted to get a little better idea of how senior citizens operate.”

One of the tests in which

he participated was the glu-cose screening.

“I wanted to learn more about diabetes care and pre-vention,” said Jauch. “My twin brother has diabetes, but I don’t have it. I learned how pre-diabetes stuff is a concern. I’ve already cut out the sugar and eat no sweets, so the presentation just reinforced it.”

Another diabetes related screening that had a lot of participants was the diabetic foot screening.

“It’s available so that they can check the bottom of their feet,” said Russell. “A lot of people with diabetes are overweight so they can’t check their feet. A lot of the time they will re-ulcerate and not know it.”

Some participants were surprised by what the health screenings showed about their bodies.

“For the last year I’ve been doing outdoor labor-inten-sive work, so I was surprised to find that my bone den-sity was actually below nor-mal,” said Annamaria Clark, who was advised to do more weight-bearing exercises to build up bone density. Clark’s family was among many locals who took advantage of the screenings due to being uninsured.

“I brought my parents because they don’t have health insurance, and my dad wanted to take advan-tage of it to get screened,” she said.

A pulse oximetry screen-ing tests one’s pulse and the oxygen level in their blood, and was also popular.

“This tests the oxygen level in the blood, so people with asthma and COPD can check to make sure they are getting enough oxygen,” said

Becca Cofer, medical assis-tant. “The fires in Eastern Washington have been caus-ing some breathing prob-lems, but it’s also the begin-ning of cold and flu season. We even had some people come in who had pneumo-nia.”

The beginning of the cold season made the Germ Busters station particularly appealing, especially to chil-dren. The Cascade Valley Germ Busters use a solu-tion and black light to test the effectiveness of people’s hand-washing techniques. First participants spray on a black light solution, then

wash and dry their hands. They then place their hands under a black light to see if there is any residual solu-tion.

“We take the Germ Busters around to schools and sport-ing events,” said Russell. “It’s really a hands-on way for kids to learn the right way to wash their hands, because it’s key to preventing disease.”

Each health fair attendee received a Passport to Health card, which had places for test results to be written to document their current state of well-being.

“We are hoping that by coming in and seeing the

facility when they’re not sick, it will urge people to con-tact us when they need a provider in the future,” said Russell.

ARLINGTON — Hundreds of cars drove through the Arlington High School park-ing lot for the 16th annual car wash-a-thon hosted by the AHS bands, on Saturday, Sept. 22.

Each member of the bands collected donation pledges for the total number of cars they could wash, with a max-imum of 150 cars. Despite rainy weather and cloudy skies, a line of vehicles still grew behind a number of car washing stations set up in front of the gym, as doz-ens of students splashed and scrubbed.

“This is our 16th annual car wash and we’ve never missed a year,” said AHS band direc-tor John Grabowski. “I’ve got to give a shout-out to Rand Pigott. He was my booster president at the time, and he came up with the idea. We’ve been doing this ever since.”

Grabowski said that the car wash always attracts more than 100 visitors, although he believes that the funds raised follow the economy.

“Last year was the first year that we didn’t hit 150 cars,” he said. “I can’t say for sure that it was the economy, but that’s a consideration.”

Despite financial struggles, the bands still succeeded in this year’s event.

“It’s a pledge car wash, so people can come in and get their car washed for free. Most people donate of course, but each student col-lects donation pledges, say 10 cents a car and we cap it off at 150 cars. So instead of mak-ing a couple hundred dollars, we have the potential to raise much more,” said Grabowski.

Each band was represented, both jazz bands and the con-cert band, as well as National Honor Society members who

were volunteering as part of their community service hours.

Several parents provided snacks as part of the AHS Band Boosters bake sale, which included everything from red velvet cupcakes to pumpkin bread.

“People have been very generous. These goodies were all donated, and we’ve raised a couple hundred dollars,” said Donna Chapman, a par-ent volunteer.

The money collected from the car wash and bake sale can assist in raising money for new instruments, as well as bringing down the cost of a class trip to Disneyland, scheduled for the end of the year.

“This is really our main fundraiser for the year,” said Grabowski. “It’s great, too, because if you look at this, we have all these kids work-ing independently and the upperclassmen are helping

out the freshman. They are building on each others’ shoulders.”

Grabowski said that no matter how much money is raised, he is proud of his students.

“I’ve got the best kids at this school. They are the leaders of the group. They have 4.0s and take every AP class they can take,” he said. “It’s really a privilege to work with these students.”

The band is always accept-

ing donations for their boost-er fund as well as donations of gently used instruments.

For more information con-tact Grabowski at 360-618-6300.

ARLINGTON – The Highland Christian Knights faced the Tulalip Heritage Hawks at Haller Middle School on Friday, Sept. 21, in a game that ended with 88-22 loss for the Knights.

The Hawks scored 38 points in the first quarter of the game to set up a pretty tough situation for the Knights, who had trouble battling the offen-sive strength of the Tulalip team.

First-year coach Greg Torell said that defense is where they have struggled.

“Our weakness is our defense and a lack of experience,” said Torell. “And we played the whole game short one player. Every game we’ve played we start with eight and drop to seven, so that’s been pretty tough.”

Due to the small size of the school, they have trouble attracting enough experienced players for varsity and spend a large amount of time in the beginning of the season working on the fundamentals.

“We started out working on the basic things, like routes and tackling. Even with the players who have played football before, we have such a small team that we have everyone go over the basics in the beginning,” said Torell.

The five returning players helped lead the team, both by providing extra experience and guiding the younger players. “Tim Matthews, Colten Wold, Tommy Torell, Sean Ferrill and Mick Boe are all doing a really great job,” said Torell.

Despite the strong lead that the Hawks took in the beginning of the game, with 50 points scored in the first 14 minutes on the clock, the Knights didn’t give up. They battled back to score three touchdowns before the game was out.

“The first half wasn’t pretty,” said Torell. “But our strength is in our offense. We throw the ball really well and we run the ball really well.”

That strength was simply not enough to over-come the Hawks on Sept. 21, and the team lost by a 66-point margin. Each time Tulalip gained possession of the ball and set up a run, the Knights defense couldn’t stop them.

“Things are looking better. They just need more experience,” said Torell. “They are prac-ticing really hard and playing really well. The score doesn’t always reflect how they are play-ing. I think by the end of the year, we will win a game.”

The Knights face Easton at Haller Middle School at 7 p.m. on Sept. 28.

LAKEWOOD — For the Cougars girls soccer team, the 2012-13 season is about building up from last year and shaping a team that will

be strong for years to come.First-year coach Steve

Brown, who replaced Jeremiah Wohlgemuth two weeks before the season began, is working with a group of young players and

hoping to build up a viable program.

“We lost 12 players last year, 11 to graduation and one switched to cross coun-try,” said Brown. “There are only a few returning players

this year.”According to Brown,

returning varsity players that have been critical are Kennady Bonnallie, Cassidy Fry and Maddie Holmes on defense and Hailey Duitsman in the midfield.

Last year’s team placed in the top 16 in the state, so expectations are high for the current Cougars team. They had to start from the basics to work their way up.

“Since I am a first year coach, there was a lot of familiarization with me and with each other in the beginning. We were try-ing to figure out where the kids would work out the best,” said Brown. “Once the teams were established, we really focused a lot on the development of the team and getting them to work together.”

With a group of young players, building team effi-ciency is important because most of the girls have differ-ent soccer backgrounds.

“They all play on select teams, but they are all on different select teams. A lot have never played together

at the school level,” said Brown.

The first two games of the season were non-league contests, including their first game against the 3A level Shorewood, which ended in a 1-0 loss for the Cougars, and a 3A level Marysville Getchell game that ended in a 0-0 tie.

“Some of our skills that have been obvious in the first few games are in our defense,” said Brown. “We don’t give up a lot of goals. Part of that is because three of our four returning players are on defense.”

In turn, offense was a bit of a struggle for the team at first. “We went three and a half games before we scored. There are a lot of freshman and sopho-mores on the team and we are focusing on getting the offense all on the same page,” said Brown.

But even with a young team, the group managed to outscore South Whidbey on Sept. 20 in a 3-1 victory, which Brown attributes to the team focus.

“We are just focused on

our skills and it’s starting to show.”

According to Brown, some newcomers or new varsity players that have done really well are Aly Eastman and Kendal Hurd in the midfield, Jennaka Larson as a goal keeper and Stephanie Smith as for-ward.

Upcoming games that should prove exciting are the Oct. 2 home game against Archbishop Murphy and the Oct. 9 home game against Granite Falls. The Cougars already played Archbishop Murphy and Granite Falls in away games, but lost 1-0 in both games.

“Those games are going to be really exciting,” said Brown. “We only lost 1-0 to Archbishop Murphy and they didn’t even score until the last 13 minutes of the game. With the game being at home, they really like their chances and they are confident they will do better the second time around.”

The Cougars face Sultan at home on Sept. 27 at 6 p.m. and Cedarcrest away on Sept. 29 at noon.

ARLINGTON — The Arlington High School NeoBots 2903 Robotics Team held a PC recy-cling drive fundraiser at AHS on Sept. 22, as a way of financially supporting the team as they begin to gear up for their upcoming competitions.

The team partnered with local business PC Recycle and gathered old electronic and electrical equip-ment from the community, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Members of the community donated everything from old computers to TVs, key-boards to stereos and more. The team loaded up the recyclables in the PC Recycle truck, and PC Recycle is set to donate the worth of the items to the team.

“This PC Recycle event is one of our main fundraising activities,” said Josh Rodriguez, one of the team members. “We are planning on going to two regional competi-tions this year. The only limitation is money. But our hope is that if we don’t make it through one, we’ll make it through the other.”

The top three teams in any given

regional competition are advanced to nationals, and although the NeoBots are a successful robotics team, with many regional appear-ances, they have yet to get to the national competition.

“The way the competition works is they announce a mission in January,” said Steve Smith, a team mentor. “They get six weeks to build a robot with a basic kit of parts and then they have to acquire the other parts that they might need.”

But building robots isn’t the only task. “They have to gather around and say, ‘How are we going to do this?’ It’s strategy, business skills, public relations and media rela-tions. It’s more than just a robot,” Smith said.

The team is supported by a number of local and regional businesses including Ablemark, Action Sports, Boeing, Crazyhouse Graphics, Datalight, Doodlebug Sportz, Kiwanis Club of Arlington, Platt, Rotary Club of Arlington, Zodiac Aerospace and more.

ARLINGTON — The “Friends of the Poor Walk” will start at Haller Park, proceed through Olympic Avenue, Legion Park and the Centennial Trail, and conclude at the Arlington

Community Food Bank at the Arlington Municipal Airport on Saturday, Sept. 29.

Registration will kick off at 9:45 a.m. for the walk starting at 10 a.m. to help

benefit the poor in the Arlington area.

Walkers can also register online at www.svdpfriend-softhepoorwalk.org by click-ing the “Walker” tab on the left-side column, arrowing

forward to the Immaculate Conception Church of Arlington’s ID number of 3196, clicking that button and filling out their infor-mation, while taking care to change the “Walk Event” to

the Washington Arlington Haller Park event — if they don’t, it will register them in Alaska — and then clicking “Add Walker.”

There are no administra-tive fees, and all proceeds

will directly benefit peo-ple in the Arlington area, through visits to the needy in their homes to provide them assistance with food, household items, clothing, utilities and shelter.

‘Friends of the Poor Walk’ set for Sept. 29

Page 12: Arlington Times, September 26, 2012

The voting period for this fall’s highly anticipated state-wide general election has begun, with Washington’s military and overseas vot-ers being the first ones to receive and fill out ballots.

Snohomish and Washington’s other coun-ties sent out roughly 50,000 general election ballots to military and overseas voters on or before Saturday, Sept. 22. Many of these voters are expected to use the option of emailing or faxing back their completed ballots to their home county elections offices. For the 2012 primary election, 50,456 ballots were issued to the state’s military

and overseas voters.“On behalf of all 39

counties and my Elections Division staff, I’m proud and honored that Washington’s military and overseas vot-ers are the first to vote in our elections,” said Secretary of State Sam Reed, Washington’s chief elections officer. “There are thousands of Washingtonians serving in the military and stationed in faraway lands. Many of our citizens are working or studying abroad, or serving in the Peace Corps or other organizations. Regardless of their locale, we hope our military and overseas voters take this opportunity to vote

and help shape our govern-ment, even while they are currently far away from us.”

Washington has received acclaim from the Department of Defense for its quality voting service and outreach to military and overseas voters. Reed was honored this July by the Pentagon’s Federal Voting Assistance Program for his work in assisting military and overseas voters from Washington state.

Snohomish was among the eight counties that had the highest number of bal-lots sent to military and overseas voters for the pri-mary, with a count of 3,525.

The other counties were King with 12,574, Pierce with 10,405, Kitsap with 5,972, Thurston with 4,362, Spokane with 3,722, Island with 2,112 and Clark with 1,737.

Ballots for other Washington voters will be sent out by Friday, Oct. 19. The statewide voters’ pamphlet will be sent to all Washington voters by then.

The 2012 general election includes many important races on the ballot, including the presidency, U.S. Senate, all 10 U.S. House contests, all 98 state House races and half of the state Senate. All nine statewide elected offic-

es are on the ballot, includ-ing governor, lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general, auditor, treasurer, public lands com-missioner, insurance com-missioner and superinten-dent of public instruction. Judicial races are also on the ballot, including three state Supreme Court positions.

Several statewide bal-lot measures will likewise be placed before voters, including:

n Initiative 1185, limit-ing taxes and fees.

n I-1240, authorizing charter schools.

n I-502, legalizing mari-juana.

n Referendum 74, legal-izing same-sex marriage.

n Engrossed Senate Joint Resolution 8221, regarding Washington’s debt limit.

n Senate Joint Reso-lution 8223, regard-ing investments by the University of Washington and Washington State University.

For the first time, there are also two non-binding state advisory votes. They deal with a B&O tax deduc-

tion for certain financial institutions’ interest on residential loans; and an extension of a tax on petro-leum products and lower-ing the rate.

Saturday, Oct. 6, is the postmark deadline for voter registration applica-tions and updates submit-ted by mail.

Monday, Oct. 8, is the last day to register or update information online.

Monday, Oct. 29, is the last day to register in per-son at your county elec-tions office if you are not registered to vote in Washington.

The 2012 general elec-tion concludes Tuesday, Nov. 6. That is the last day for voters to take ballots to county elections offices or ballot drop box locations, or to be postmarked.

Washington voter turn-out in the 2008 general elec-tion was a state-record 85 percent. More than 49,000 military and overseas vot-ers took part in the 2008 general election, resulting in 73 percent turnout for that voting bloc.

Firewood, Fuel& Stoves

NOTICEWashington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (re- ceipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d bu ye r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quan- tity 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 de- livery vehicle.The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a cord by v isual iz ing a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet . Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.To make a f i r ewood complaint, call 360-902- 1857.
