ARLINGTON — It was a project 30 years in the making, and those who pushed it forward are already planning the next stages of its devel-opment.

On Oct. 15, the Armar Road Trailhead served as the site for the dedication of the final stretch of Centennial Trail between Arlington and Snohomish.

Snohomish County Parks Director Tom Teigen laughingly thanked the “Housewives from Hell” with driv-ing the county parks department to close the 1.2-mile gap in the trail between 172nd and 152nd streets along 67th Avenue NE, with the county and state splitting the $1.4 million cost of constructing that stretch of the trail.

Snohomish County Council mem-ber John Koster acknowledged that he was “guilty of harassing Tom” by constantly asking him when the gap would be closed, and when Koster asked Teigen when the final four miles of the trail from Bryant north to the county line would be done, Teigen estimated that it would be completed in a few weeks.

Arlington Mayor Margaret Larson praised not only City Council mem-ber Marilyn Oertle and Capital Projects Manager Paul Ellis, but also longtime Centennial Trail Coalition members Chuck and Bea Randall, with pushing to make this happen.

“That takes tenacity,” said Larson, who added that Oertle and Ellis were also instrumental in incorpo-rating an upcoming visitor center and public restroom into the trail. “In a small town, it’s the ‘we’ that gets things done.”

Teigen extended credit to Snohomish County Executive Aaron

Closing The Centennial Trail Gap


ARLINGTON — The exchanges between the can-didates for Arlington’s elect-ed offices remained cordial throughout the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce’s candidates forum on Oct. 11.

Arlington mayoral candi-dates Steve Baker and Barb Tolbert set the stage for the comments to follow by tout-ing their commitment to economic development and ties to the community, with Baker citing his decade of service on the Arlington City

Council while Tolbert point-ed to her service as director of the Arlington Fly-In since 1994.

“I’ve served on almost every committee in this city,” said Baker, a longtime Arlington businessman.

“When I was first hired at the Fly-In, we had a staff of 60 and a budget of $60,000,” Tolbert said. “We now have a staff of 519 and a half-million-dollar budget, for an event that has a $10 million impact on the area.”

Tolbert and Baker agreed that balancing the budget would be their primary pri-

ority as mayor, with Baker declaring that everything would need to be examined for potential cuts to avoid increasing taxes, while Tolbert emphasized the need to focus on assets that would make Arlington more competitive with other cities in terms of attracting busi-nesses.

Tolbert presented her-self as an outsider to the city government with fresh ideas, while Baker described himself as knowledgeable enough in the inside work-

ings of city government to get things done. This theme was repeated with Arlington City Council Position 4 incumbent Sally Lien and

challenger Randy Tendering, as Lien expressed pride in her 16-year career in city government, which includ-ed drafting the first city comprehensive plan, while Tendering summed himself up as a 16-year resident of Arlington who’s seen the

state of its roads firsthand as a school bus driver.

While Lien and Tendering also agreed that balanc-ing the budget took prece-dence, Tendering advocated expanding 172nd Street NE to attract more businesses and generate more tax reve-

nue for the city, as Lien urged continuing on the direction set by outgoing Arlington Mayor Margaret Larson.

“This is one of the best communities in the world,” Lien said. “We’re a well-planned city and we’re work-ing on a plan to transform Smokey Point. I want to con-tinue serving as long as I’m able to do so.”

“I like serving this com-munity, and I don’t think anyone should run for office unopposed,” Tendering said, before drawing laughter by turning to Lien and adding, “Sorry, Sally.”

The At-Large City Council pits former Arlington Fire

Chief Jim Rankin against local small businessman Ken Klein. Klein touted his background in finance and the five generations that his family has lived in the area, while Rankin cited his 30 years of senior management level experience at six differ-ent fire agencies, including five years of working with the Arlington City Council.

“I can help the Council work together and set priori-ties and goals that will allow us not only to survive, but also to improve as we contin-ue to provide services to the community,” Rankin said.

“The economy is what keeps us moving,” Klein said.

“Without jobs, we can’t pro-vide those services. I under-stand land use. I’ve served on the Snohomish County Planning Commission. I know the people and the situ-ation.”

State Rep. Mike Hope, who’s challenging incum-bent Aaron Reardon for the office of Snohomish County Executive, was the only one of the two to appear at the candidates forum. Hope reiterated his objec-tions to the county’s rela-tively high unemployment levels and promised that his jobs plan would maximize the strengths of local com-munities.

Reardon for making the trail a priority, as well as Marysville Mayor Jon Nehring for writ-ing letters in support of clos-ing the gap even back when he was a City Council mem-ber. Teigen then recounted how, two years ago, he’d rid-den his own bike along the gap on 67th Avenue NE.

“That was an awesome white-knuckle experience,” Teigen laughed. “In 15 years, it was closest I’ve come to a near-death experience.”

According to Teigen, the closure of the gap benefit-

ted from re-allocated grant funds and cooperation by not only the Army Corps of Engineers, but also the state and federal depart-ments of Ecology and Fish & Wildlife.

Beth Hill, president of the Centennial Trail Coalition of Snohomish County, char-acterized this project as an object lesson in the value of persistence.

“We started working on this 23 years ago,” Hill said. “You can raise a kid and put him through college sooner than that. You just have to follow through and stick with it.”

Hill explained that the next step will be to com-plete the Whitehorse Trail, from its intersection with the Centennial Trail at in Arlington along the Stillaguamish River to Darrington.

“We won’t have to do that ‘suicide mile’ anymore,” said Arlington resident Rick Schranck, of the B.I.K.E.S. Club of Snohomish County. “I must have ridden 43,000 miles in the past five years, and about 10,000 of them were along this trail. Now we can ride from downtown Arlington to downtown Snohomish in safety.”

ARLINGTON — This winter holiday season will be more difficult for 70 Arlington workers.

BlueScope Buildings North America will close its facility in Arlington, as well as the HCI Steel Building Systems business, on Dec. 12.

Production of the HCI product line will be phased out over the next two months to meet the pro-jected plant closure date of Dec. 12.

According to Lucinda Grove, media contact for BlueScope, the company will work with Arlington community leaders to ease the 70 affected employees’ transition. The employees’

s e v e r a n c e pay will be based on their length of service, and BlueS cope will provide them with career coun-seling to help them find new jobs.

“Although we are seeing an improvement in overall BlueScope Buildings’ busi-ness volume, the global financial crisis has been a significant challenge for HCI,” said Scott Wilson, operations manager for BlueScope. “This difficult decision was made only after

an extensive review. We sincerely and deeply appre-ciate the con-t r i b u t i o n s made by all our Arlington e mp l oy e e s , and recognize their service and commit-

ment. This decision is not a negative reflection on their performance.”

Wilson added that BlueScope’s other facilities will absorb the Arlington plant’s additional volume, due to recent manufactur-ing improvements that have increased the efficiency and production capacity of

BlueScope plants across the country.

“This move will enable other sites to run closer to full capacity, further lower costs and help us further meet or exceed our custom-ers’ expectations,” Wilson said.

MARYSIVLLE — The Arlington Times and The Marysville Globe brought home a trio of statewide awards from the recent Washington Newspaper Publishers Association’s 124th annual Better Newspaper Contest.

For the ninth time since 2000, the Arlington Times has been named one of the best newspapers in the state in its circulation group as it received a second-place General Excellence Award

during the Oct. 7-8 confer-ence in Everett.

Competing for the General Excellence Award in Circulation Group III, for newspapers with cir-culations between 5,001 and 12,750, The Times was judged on the quality of writing, story mix, photog-raphy and graphics, design, display advertising, classi-fied advertising and print-ing, and finished behind the first-place Port Townsend Leader.

The Times also brought home the third-place award for its How To Guide in the Tourism/Community Guide Special Section division for Circulation Group III.

“Advertising content paired with ads create a unique special section,” wrote the judges. “This one, Arlington Times How To Guide, is particularly well designed. This is an all-star section.”

Brooks Smothers, art director for The Arlington

Times and The Marysville Globe, garnered the third-place award in the General News Black and White or Color Photograph in Circulation Group IV, for newspapers with circula-tions of more than 12,750, for the Marysville Globe.

Smothers’ award-win-ning photo accompanied the story titled “Working to keep schools safe” which appeared in the Oct. 13, 2010 issue of The Marysville Globe.

“Good effort to bring life to an otherwise dull photo,” wrote the judges about Smothers’ entry.

The 2011 contest drew 2,523 entries from 78 com-munity newspapers in Washington state includ-ing 477 in the Advertising Division; 195 in the Special Section Division; 1,345 in the News Division; seven in the Community Service; and 63 in the Web Division. The judges were members of the Texas Press Association.

ARLINGTON — Sami Smith, a 17-year old senior at Arlington High School, recently made it into the top 50 semi-finalists of the nationwide “Sketch Your Prom Dress” contest conducted by Seventeen Magazine and David’s Bridal, but she’ll need some support from Facebook fans to have a shot at pull-ing through.

Sami is hoping that her purple dress sketch will earn her the grand prize of a $25,000 college schol-arship, a three-day trip to New York City to put the

final touches on a sample of her dress, which would be manufactured and sold in David’s Bridal stores for the prom of spring 2012, and a $5,000 donation to her high school. The two runners-up will receive a trip to NYC and a $400 cer-tificate to David’s Bridal.

Sami traced her inter-est in fashion back to the Barbie and Bratz dolls she had in elementary school, whose outfits she constant-ly changed and even cut up to create new designs. A fashion design course during her sophomore year took her to the Art Institute of Seattle’s fashion show,

where she realized that she wanted to study fashion design in college.

“I enjoy keeping up with fashion trends, and I’m always thinking, ‘What’s next? What’s new?’” said Sami, whose drawing tal-ent was fostered by a studio art class during her junior year. “At home, I spend a lot of my free time sketch-ing models with clothing designs that I would like to wear someday. I would enjoy seeing my creations come to life, to make people look stylish and feel good.”

Sami sketched her dress design for the contest the day after she learned about

it, and has been working to boost her vote-count on Facebook, by way of “Likes” for her design in the contest’s Facebook album, since those “Likes” count for 25 percent of the criteria by which the designs will be judged dur-ing the week of Oct. 24. Another 25 percent will be determined based on the design’s originality, while 30 percent will be based on style and the remaining 20 percent will be based on commercial appeal.

“You’re never going to achieve anything if you don’t try,” said Sami, who peaked at third place with-in the semi-finalists based on online votes, before slipping slightly to fifth place by Oct. 13. “Fashion is always changing, and design and creativity are always in demand. I’d love

to be a part of all of that.”Lori Smith, Sami’s moth-

er, recalled how she and Sami’s father, Pete, first noticed her creativity at a young age.

“I remember her orga-nizing her blocks by color, while creating a design with them on the floor,” Lori said. “It seemed she always had a crayon in her hand, and one day she decided I needed a mural on my kitchen wall. I framed it with some black construc-tion paper strips to show her dad when he got home from work. She’s current-ly painting a beach scene mural on her bedroom wall for her senior project. This time, she asked for permis-sion first.”

To vote for Sami Smith’s dress design online, search for Seventeen Magazine on Facebook, click on its

“Photos” tab and look for “By Sami, Washington” in the album marked “Finalists.” Click on the image of the sketch and then click “Like” to cast your vote.

Arlington ‘Zombie Walk’ raises funds for kids’ art supplies

ARLINGTON — Fogdog Gallery on Olympic Avenue is teaming up with the Downtown Arlington Business Association to stage Arlington’s first “Zombie Walk,” to raise money for art supplies for local middle and high school-aged young people.

“After I met a student in my gallery one day who was unable to do her art at home because she couldn’t afford the supplies, I decid-ed to try and do some-

thing about it,” said Claire Cundiff, owner of Fogdog Gallery.

The event kicks off at 2:30 p.m. on Oct. 29 in the parking lot across the street from Julie’s Barber Shop, located at 413 N. Olympic Ave. in Arlington.

The cost to participate is $5, all of which will go toward the fund.

MARYSVILLE — JoAnn Kuhnle, owner of Kuhnle’s Tavern, which will celebrate its 93rd anniversary in December, is retiring after nearly 52 years of working with family and her closest friends.

“I probably won’t do a whole lot different,” said JoAnn of her retirement plans. “I’m not much of a traveler, but I’ve got lots of people behind me, and that will keep it fun.”

Kuhnle started at the tavern on Strawberry Fest Saturday in 1959 at the age of 25. She assumed own-ership of the tavern after the passing of her husband, Kay, who had bought the tavern from his parents, tavern founders Ed and Clair, in 2006.

“It’s been really different not to have him,” JoAnn said. “He was the orches-trator, I was a worker bee. He made it all work.”

Friends, family and busi-ness partners say Kuhnle has done a fantastic job in that time.

Her retirement party at the tavern on Oct. 8 attract-ed hundreds of old friends and well-wishers for a cele-bration of her lively career.

“JoAnn set an example for bosses,” said Tanya Buttke, 51, a Kuhnle’s bar-tender of 24 years who will soon share ownership of the tavern with co-bar-tender Gloria Phillips. “She provided us with a home here, and she’ll do anything for us.”

Guests at the party included The Marysville Globe’s former senior edi-tor Bob Buttke, who JoAnn

said is like a brother to her, Buttke’s sister Louise Anderson Savoie, for-mer Kuhnle’s employee Marcia Erickson-Britton — whose entire family lived in Marysville — and Rich Brown, who used to serve Kuhnle’s as a Pepsi-Cola and beer salesman.

“It’s wonderful to work here and that’s why I’m still here. I’ll probably be here the rest of my life,” said Phillips, 67, who started coming to the tavern when she was 21 years old.

The Sauerkraut Band, which Kuhnle’s sponsors to help raise money for Make-A-Wish and the Boys & Girls Club of Marysville, commemorated the end of Kuhnle’s wondrous career, playing a score of songs including “In Heaven There is No Beer” and “When the Saints Go Marching In”

as pom-pom and feather-boa hat dancers frolicked about the room to create an atmosphere of nostalgia and good cheer. Sauerkraut drummer Jim Young, owner of Doc’s Pilchuck Tavern in Snohomish, has known JoAnn for 50 years. Band manager Mike Guyot continues a 43-year friend-ship with Kuhnle and her staff.

“She’s like my sec-ond mother,” said Dege Engstrom, Tanya’s boy-friend, whose baseball team Kuhnle’s Tavern sponsored. “I love her to death. It’s hard to find a true friend like her.”

“The party was absolute-ly wonderful,” JoAnn said. “I didn’t realize how many friends I had and I knew them all. It’s the friendships that have made the differ-ence.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITORMuller for Marysville City Council

During the last several years I have had the pleasure of working with Steve Muller on a variety of volunteer commit-tees and activities within the Marysville School District.

I have found him to be a very positive influence, with his total focus on the well-being and accomplishment of the mission. He has a great attitude, is very professional and his commitment to our community is unconditional.

Steve possesses the polite toughness, the listening skills and leadership qualities that make him an outstanding can-didate for the Marysville City Council.

Police support Tolbert for Arlington Mayor

The Arlington Police Officer’s Association has voted to endorse Barb Tolbert’s candidacy for the position of Mayor in the city of Arlington. Our Association has never before endorsed a political candidate for a local city office. We have chosen to support Barb because our city needs the kind of forward-thinking, strong leadership that Barb uniquely brings to the table.

Barb has the business and community service experience that Arlington desperately needs in a Mayor to guide the

city through the economic challenges facing many cit-ies around the state. Barb will bring a long-range vision to City Hall with new and creative ideas. Barb not only chairs the Arlington Fly-in, now the third largest event of its kind, she had served on the Arlington Economic Development Committee and recently chaired “YES on EMS,” a successful campaign to solidify Emergency Medical Services in Arlington. She has been active in the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce and the Cascade Valley Hospital Foundation.

Barb is the one mayoral candidate to truly investigate the issues facing Arlington, particularly in the Arlington Police Department. Barb has been a citizen rider with offi-cers on duty and educated her-self about what officers do and how they do it. Barb under-stands the city’s budget and how it works. She would bring a long-range vision to city hall. “Everything has changed,” because of the flat revenue pic-ture, she said, and “a paradigm shift is needed.”

For these reasons and many others, Barb Tolbert has earned the endorsement of the Arlington Police Officer’s Association. We are looking forward to the new vision, fresh ideas and revived energy Barb will bring to the Office of Mayor.

Unless you’ve been there, it’s impossible to come close to envisioning anything about

Turkey. Any child’s first contact with Turkey is the edible fowl of the same name. Call someone a turkey and he’s labeled as dumb or unknowing. Turkey-ness means stupidly comic. Gobble-gobble.

I landed in Istanbul on Sept. 25 to find out the truth about a nation that seems immune to the global reces-sion. The reality of Turkey came as something of a shock, even after having studied it from a distance. Some surprising facts:

■ With a population of 74 million, Turkey is smaller than Germany and larger than France.

■ The world’s fleet of Mercedes trucks and buses is made in Turkey, not Germany.

■ Though predominately Muslim, other religions are freely practiced in Turkey.

■ Factories for Honda, Hyundai, Ford, Renault, Isuzu plus produc-tion of household appliances, tires, aerospace components, technology, machine tools, fabrics and clothing and agricultural commodities fuel a positive balance of trade.

■ Europeans flock to Turkey for high-quality low-cost medical pro-cedures.

■ The weather is great, the seaside destinations spectacular, the people friendly and the cuisine delicious. All this plus a relatively low crime rate make Turkey the top tourism draw in the Middle East.

■ Turkey is home to an expand-ing wine industry offering reds and whites that compete in quality with wines from Western Europe.

The Turkish language can be a problem in that it isn’t related to other Mediterranean languages. However, adoption of newish words does man-age to shed a little light. Take taksi, finans, fotocopi, celfon, teknoloji and turizm for example. For me, too much of the language remained indecipherable so this became my first time ever of joining a tour with a guide.

Our 2,100 mile tour of Western Turkey began and ended in Istanbul.

The route touched New Testament sites of Smyrna (now Izmir), Pergamum, Cappadocia and Ephesus where we walked restored streets once trod by members of the early Christian church. Turkey boasts a richer spread of Greek and Roman ruins than may be found in Italy or Greece.

We journeyed up the fertile Meander River valley where diggers have unearthed settlements that reach back six and seven thousand years, marking the area as one of the earliest seats of urban civilization. Mustafa, our guide and walking encyclopedia of world history, spiced his mono-logues with indelicate speculations about life in ancient times.

Mustafa is a fiftyish clinical psy-chologist and historian who, thanks to a midlife career change, became a tour guide. He enjoyed comparing historical events with the antics of U.S. politics and celebrities. We found him to be deep into world affairs, Mid-East history, archaeology and anthropology.

Mustafa led us to sites that fig-ured in early Christianity, walked us through caravanserais, those 12th Century castle-like way-points for silk road caravans and showed us the ruins of Troy. We came away believ-ing that Turkey is underrated as an important cradle of civilization.

The modern nation was shaped by Kemal Attaturk, Turkey’s George Washington, who first gained fame in World War 1 by defeating superior Allied Forces at the battle of Gallipoli. He and his wife spurred literacy by inventing a phonetic alphabet that assigns a complete sound to each letter. No combinations like wh, th, ght, or ph were allowed. It resembles our alphabet except for certain let-ters being decorated with squiggles or dots.

Turkey subsidizes housing projects and offers free medical care to chil-dren aged 1-18 and college students plus a universal medial plan for all ages. Disabled citizens enjoy tax-supported personal services, all of the above financed by recently upping the collection of taxes-due from 30 percent to 70 percent. The nation bustles with activity in spite of a top earners’ income tax rate of 65 percent. People are shopping, working, din-ing out and traveling, thanks to an economy that grows by more than 8 percent per year. Interestingly, wages are discussed only in the real terms of salaries after deductions.

Miscellaneous sidelights: Think of Istanbul as a 65 mile-long city of 13 million inhabitants. Consider that IKEA has three outlets in Turkey but none in the entire Balkan area. With cars taxed according to engine size, A Jeep Cherokee V8 is slapped with 250% of the tax for a subcompact model. Envision almost all rooftops studded, like the chimney pots of Olde London, with solar water heat-ers

Though Turkey is predominantly Islamic, it’s illegal to give schools religious names and all schools are open to students of all denomina-tions. Candidates are even barred from using religious references when campaigning for office. Turkey has 200 universities and branches where qualified students pay $180 per year tuition as compared with $5,000 to $15,000 in the United States. Turkey leads Europe in female enrollment.

Since the government builds and maintains all mosques and churches and pays preachers, there’s less need for church finance committees or annual fund drives. The government doesn’t run the churches, but out of a conviction that a strong nation needs believing citizens, it simply pays the bills. Worshipping without being has-sled about budget shortfalls sounds pretty good to me.

All of which is to say that overseas travel gives proof that we might not have all the answers.

Old Bags support Tolbert

In her capacity as Executive Director of the annual Arlington Fly-In, Barbara Tolbert has shown her organizational skills as well as her dedication and devotion to Arlington. What many may not know is how involved this lady is in a myriad of volunteer efforts throughout this community — President, Cascade Valley Hospital Foundation; board of the Arlington-Smokey Point Chamber of Commerce and Lions Club. Past ser-vice includes the Arlington School District Facilities Committee; Director, Snohomish County Tourism Board; and recently Chair of the EMS levy committee to ensure Emergency Medical Services to our community for the future.

The Old Bags of Arlington are proud to recommend Barbara Tolbert for Mayor of Arlington in the upcoming election.

Arlington Fire Fighters Local 3728 endorses Tolbert for Mayor

Arlington Fire Fighters Local 3728 is proud to endorse Barb Tolbert for Mayor of Arlington. We are honored to stand with a candidate who has given so much time and leadership to our department.

Barb selflessly volun-teered to work with us over the course of two campaigns to providing paramedic services for our city. Barb’s leadership was inspiring, and her ability to manage the campaign ensured success.

Our city is facing chal-lenges and we believe Barb has the vision, energy and commitment to look at new direction and steer a good course for Arlington and its residents. Her ability to inspire people will be well received by city staff and residents. We welcome the opportunity to work with her.

Those in our community who have had the privilege of working with Barb know that she is highly profes-sional and very passionate about Arlington. Barb will guide Arlington on a posi-tive path while retaining a strong sense of community.

Please join us in voting for Barb Tolbert for Mayor of Arlington on Nov. 8, pro-moting a strong future for the city of Arlington.

Allen for city Council

I read the Everett Herald’s recent article endorsing various candidates for the upcoming Marysville City Council race with interest. Unfortunately, the informa-tion on Scott Allen who is running for Position 5 was all too brief. In my associa-tion with Scott, I have found him to be incredibly well read and versed about the challenges Marysville faces; he has lived in Marysville for a long time and is a tire-less volunteer with church, Kiwanis and the Masons.

He is passionate about finding creative solutions to local issues such as traf-fic control, understanding that the city’s economic condition needs to be fac-tored into any solution that Council may come up with and he is hard working, highly motivated and anx-ious to get into office and work tirelessly on behalf of our citizens. He has a great deal of administrative and management experience and would be happy to share that with the citizens of Marysville.

I urge all voters to vote for Scott Allen for City Council on Nov. 8.

Vote for Tolbert for Mayor

As we are all faced with challenges in our economies, both nationally and locally, we think now more than ever it’s important to con-sider the type of leadership that we elect into office.

We had the opportunity this past spring to work side by side with Barb Tolbert on the city of Arlington’s Emergency Medical Services

Levy. This was an impor-tant levy for Arlington as its passing ensured contin-ued paramedic services to be provided for the citizens of Arlington. Barb not only worked to secure after hours locations for volunteers to call voters, helped organize the house-to-house “door-belling” efforts by our local firefighters/paramedics, but also worked with us to call our voters and to ensure understanding of the levy by our citizens. The levy passed with overwhelming success and our citizens will not incur additional taxes for it passing.

She works tirelessly to understand the issues of growth, budget and change that affect our city. She’s smart, she does her home-work and asks the questions that better help her under-stand the needs of our city. She does this by working with others and being open to the opinions and ideas expressed by others.

The message is clear: Arlington would benefit from the partnership, col-laboration and servant leadership spirit that Barb so embodies. Her goal is to work with people, through people and in collaboration with our citizens through the hard times and the good times. Realizing that not all decisions will be easy, she understands that her leader-ship success will be critical to how she best serves the citizens of Arlington.

Please join us in sup-porting and voting for Barbara Tolbert for Mayor of Arlington this November.

Support Mayor Nehring

After researching the information on both our current Mayor Jon Nehring and his opponent Kelly Wright this election season the voting members of our family have decided to vote for Jon Nehring to continue as Mayor of Marysville.

Jon Nehring has already produced proven and posi-tive results in a difficult environment by achieving

financial stability for our city and maintaining the core functions of government at a high level. Nehring has plans to improve our traffic with projects already underway and paid for as well as future projects that he has worked hard on and has specific ways to pay for without rais-ing taxes.

The challenger Kelly Wright has some very gen-eral suggestions for grandi-ose “large urban-city style” overpasses, etc. but when looking deeper they are very expensive (upwards of 80-100 million dollars) and he offers no specifics on how he would pay for them. We don’t need expensive bridges to nowhere that wipe out the businesses beneath them in Marysville.

Let’s keep the steady and proven leadership of Nehring. His extensive busi-ness career coupled with his eight-plus years on the City Council and 14 months as Mayor show in his command of the challenges facing the city and how to deal with them “specifically.”

Please vote to retain Jon Nehring as Mayor of Marysville

LETTERS FROM PAGE 6


TULALIP — The Taste of Tulalip’s second annu-al “Tweet-Up” drew 31 Twitterers to the Orca Ballroom of the Tulalip Resort on Oct. 12, up from 26 last year, with a consid-erable wait-list of “foodies” who had hoped to sample sneak previews of the dishes that will be served at the third annual Taste of Tulalip on Nov. 11-12.

According to Lisa Severn, food and beverage director for the Tulalip Resort, this reflects the level of inter-est in the Taste of Tulalip itself, since all 400 seats at its Celebration Dinner have already sold out.

“Social media really gen-erates strong interest,” said Allan Aquila, who’s con-ducting public relations for the event. “It feels like more of a personal conversation when people can follow these Twitter and Facebook accounts to get their impres-sions of the dishes.”

Although Aquila identi-fied a boost in ticket sales for last year’s Taste of Tulalip, following that year’s Tweet-Up, he acknowledged that ticket sales for this year’s Taste of Tulalip were already ahead of where they’d been at the same time last year, before the Oct. 12 Tweet-Up.

“Everyone comes here already expecting to have a good time,” said Arleen Edward, director of catering and conference services for the Tulalip Resort. “It’s great to get their feedback on how well the food and wine came together, especially when some of them have flown in from out of state.”

Although they hail from relatively close by, Kevin Wu and Jason Chow of 604Foodtography.com are definitely from out of state. The Vancouver, B.C., duo came from Canada armed with cameras and smart-phones to take their first taste of Tulalip.

“I’ve never been to this resort before,” Wu said. “It was well worth the drive. I had to check out this menu for the seafood.”

“No, for the beef,” Chow disagreed, indicating the Wagyu New York strip that topped their table’s menu. “I mean, a chance to check out the American take on Kobe? Come on, man.”

Tulalip Resort Executive Chef Perry Mascitti explained that each of the five tables would be served a slightly different menu.

“Otherwise, you’d each be eating 24 different dishes,” said Mascitti, who praised his seven chefs and his roughly 140-member culi-nary team, which serves up 110,000 meals a month

at the Tulalip Resort. “We want this to show our pas-sion.”

Chef Brent Clarkson boasted of the Wagyu that it had a “6” on the marbling index, “the highest you can get,” and promised, “The meat melts in your mouth.”

At the same time that Chef David Buchanan pre-sented glasses of Dungeness crab pot pie and Chef Dean Shinagawa served up braised oxtail, magnums of Cristal and Abacus were flowing freely.

“Unless you’re Bill Gates or some other computer mil-lionaire, you’re not going to get a chance to sample wines like these again,” Taste of Tulalip Sommelier Tommy Thompson said. “We have all these wineries vying for space here, and Washington has some amazing wines, so it’s always a hard choice.”

Wu and Chow’s table-mate and fellow Vancouver native, Victoria Chemko of “Victoria’s Food Secrets,” had no complaints about the evening’s wines.

“It’s all been delicious,” said Chemko, who was also visiting the Tulalip Resort for the first time. “I’ve been on a bit of a break from wines lately, so reintroduc-ing myself to them in this way is not a bad thing,” she laughed.

Chemko admitted to sup-porting the local economy by doing some shopping in the area as well.

While many attendees took the time to photo-graph their dishes before digging in, almost everyone paused to take pictures of Chef Nikol Nakamura mak-ing pistachio ice cream with liquid nitrogen, especially when the mix caused thick, cloudy vapors to billow out of her bowl like a horror movie fog.


Elmer (E.T.) R. Tap-per, 82, died September 17, 2011, with some of his family at his side in Ever-ett, Washington.

A memorial service will be held at Jake’s House Church in Smokey Point, WA, on Saturday, October 22, 2011 at 11am. The pub-lic is invited to attend.

He was born June 19, 1929, in St. Bernard, Loui-siana to Elmer and Sarah Tapper. He was christened in the Catholic Church in Violet La, a suburb of New Orleans.

E.T. grew up in Violet where he helped his father fishing in the local lakes and Gulf of Mexico. He graduated from Loyola Law School in 1952. He married his high school sweet heart, Audra Galjour. They mar-ried and E.T. went right into the Army.

Upon returning from the Army, E.T. started practic-

ing Law and eventually ran for public office and was elected State Representative for New Orleans. He served 12 years as state representa-tive and was a delegate to the Louisiana State Consti-tutional Convention in 1973 where he collaborated in rewriting the State Consti-tution. He finished out the last 8 years of his 20 year career in state government as the Attorney for the Par-don Board. He continued to practice law totalling 35 years.

He loved fishing, hunt-ing, playing golf and eating

great seafood and Cajun food from New Orleans.

E.T. helped many people over his lifetime and was greatly loved and admired for his compassion for “the little guy” and helping peo-ple succeed in their career and life.

He spent the last years of his life helping his wife,

Audra, and spending time with his 3 children, Mari-lyn, Tania, and E.T. Jr and his grand kids and great grand kids until he passed away at age 82.

Mr. Tapper is survived by his wife, Audra, children, Marilyn, Tania and E.T. Jr. and daughter-in-law LaFaye Tapper, and 5 grandchildren and their spouses, Jona-than and Rachael Tapper, Kristen and Justin Palmer, Benjamin Tapper, Landon Tapper and Zoe Tapper, and 2 great grandchildren, Hudson Palmer and Micah Tapper.

Marie Theresa Steiner (May 27, 1925 - October 13, 2011) was born in Ror-schacherberg, Switzerland and came to America in 1953 with her husband, Alfons.

She was an equal part-ner running a success-ful family dairy farm in Marysville while raising five children.

Our beloved matri-arch will be missed and remembered for her love of family, warm down-home hospitality, razor sharp wit, great home cooking, green thumb, and unfaltering faith.

She is preceded in death by her son Paul Joseph (1975); parents Anton and Marie; brothers Anton, Louis, Joe, and sister Lizabeth. Marie is sur-vived by her husband of 60 years Alfons; brother Jacob (Brunhild), son Al Jr. (Linda) with grand-children Ben (Nicole) and great grand-daughter Bri-elle; Casey (Susie); and Alina; daughter Verena (Basil Grieco) with grand-daughters Adrienne and Arielle; daughter Mary (Eldon); and son Peter (Heidi) along with numer-ous nephews and nieces.

Our family would like to thank Everett Providence Regional Medical Center, Providence Hospice of Snohomish County, and Warm Beach Health Care Center for their kind and professional care.

In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to one of these excellent commu-nity resources.

We invite you to join us in a memorial mass with reception to follow at Immaculate Concep-tion Catholic Church in Arlington, Saturday, Octo-ber 22, 2011 at 2 pm.

10 The Arlington Times • The Marysville Globe October 19, 2011THE SPORTS PAGE


STANWOOD — Arlington football fans wanted Eagle Power against rival Stanwood in the Stilly Cup on Oct. 7.

“We’ve got spirit, yes we do” became “We’ve got points, how about you?” after a first half in which Arlington scored 53 points on the way to routing Stanwood 59-0 to win their second straight Stilly Cup and secure the widest margin of victory in Stilly Cup history.

“We’ve wanted this game since last year,” said Arlington’s Greg Dailer, winner of back-to-back Cup wins after starting 0-2 in the series as head coach. “Our guys came out with a determination to improve after last week’s loss to Lake Stevens, where we came out flat.”

The Eagles had no trouble on offense — their only single-dig-it yardage plays in the first half (of five and nine yards) went for touchdowns.

Senior quarterback Blake McPherson was the star of the show with two touchdown pass-es to senior running back Colton

Hordyk, two to junior wide receiv-er Terry Dawn and two more to Brummel and a 56-yard touchdown run to solidify his five-carry, 118-yard performance before spending the second half on the sidelines because of Arlington’s enormous lead.

Sophomore quarterback Austin Wells recorded his first career score with a 10-yard touchdown strike to sophomore wide receiver Saige Taylor late in the third quarter.

Arlington’s defense was also spectacular, forcing two fumbles, intercepting three passes in the second and holding Stanwood to 150 yards in the first half and allowing 38 rushing yards and zero passing yards in the second half.

Senior defensive back Derek Sweeney took a Stanwood pass 28 yards the other way for a score. The Spartans were fortunate not to surrender another touchdown when Arlington junior defensive back Skylor Elgarico’s interception return for a touchdown was wiped off the board because of an illegal block in the back with a minute left in the first half.

Eagles claim Stilly Cup in 59-0 rout


ARLINGTON — Arlington var-sity boys tennis, 2-10 in league play and 2-12 overall, hosted Wesco North rival Snohomish (8-6, 8-7) on Oct. 11 in a match that both teams needed to create momen-tum as the Division Tournament at Stanwood High School on Oct. 18 drew nearer.

The Eagles’ newly assembled doubles teams, for which coach Sean Cunningham combined sin-gles players, appeared cohesive, but the results said otherwise.

“It’s more about measurement to see how they fare,” Cunningham explained. “We’re trying to build program and set goals. My number-one (Trent Sarver) and number-two (Tyler Bradford) have to get used to playing with each other.”

The Panthers dominated throughout, taking six of seven sets to sweep the evening’s matches 7-0.

Snohomish’s Mitch Scott defeat-ed Jeremy King 6-0, 6-2 to start the event. Andrew Ivelia crushed Arlington’s Peter Forster 6-0, 6-1. Jory Strickland yielded one game to Arlington’s Josh Robinson at 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 but Nate Stockwell finished the Eagles’ Connor Ghirardo, 6-3, 6-3.

Doubles play was more of the same.

Panthers Luke Martinson and Zach Martinson edged Trent Sarver and Tyler Bradford of the Eagles, 6-3, 6-2.

Snohomish’s Josiah Perron and Carlos Videla outlasted Cody Olson Brandon Kennedy in a tiebreaker set, 6-0, 5-7, 6-2.

Nate Karsner and Derek Shields gave Snohomish the doubles hat trick, vanquishing Alex Robertson and Austin Brunkhorst, 6-2, 6-3.

Arlington coach Sean Cunningham said this outcome was to be expected. Next year, though, will be much better. His teams’ Oct. 10 performances are much better than the Sept. 15 match, though the result was the same.

“We’re rebuilding this year,” Cunningham said. “We’re not grad-uating a lot of players, which bodes well for next year. We’ll play that Snohomish team again next year when we have a lot of guys with experience. We’ll have the depth next year to pull it off. Snohomish doesn’t waste points, doesn’t waste opportunities. It’s not a crime to look at other teams and say, why can’t we do it like they do?”

Cunningham said Arlington’s Oct. 13 match at Monroe was criti-cal to Arlington’s District playoff

seeding, though their chances are all but dashed with a 2-11, 2-13 record as of Oct. 11. The Eagles have since beaten Monroe on Oct. 13 and fallen at Lake Stevens on Oct. 14 to finish the regular season at 3-11, 3-12.

In singles play against Monroe, Howard Chen swept King 6-0, 6-0. Garrett Amsberry of Monroe slammed Foster 6-0, 6-1; Eagle Ghirerdo bagged Bearcat Dustin Haynes 6-0, 6-0; Dillon Bull poached Robinson 6-1, 6-1.

In doubles, Sarver and Bradford beat Jordan Lindquist and Nick Bruton 6-3, 6-2; Olson and Kennedy outmatched David Garrison and Mason Harris 6-4, 6-4; Robertson and Brunkhorst edged Stephen Fordham and Korey Hope 6-4, 6-4.

Against Lake Stevens, Tyler Storz outlasted Jeremy King 7-5, 3-6, 6-4; Andrei Arevalo crushed Forster 6-2, 6-1; Gavin Gershmel finished Ghirardo 7-5, 6-3; Tyler Hilde vanquished Josh Robinson 6-2, 6-2. In doubles, Kramer Hansen and Grant Shultz handled Sarver and Bradford 2-6, 6-0, 7-5; Kennedy and Olson sank Andrew Moe and Ryan Lian 7-6 (7-1), 2-6, 7-6 (11-9) and Alex Thompson and Jackson Finaly beat Robertson and Brunkhurst 6-3, 6-3.

LAKEWOOD — The 2011 Lakewood Hole in the Wall Invitational on Oct. 8 attracted a record 55 schools including ‘Iolani High School from Honolulu, which had to travel nearly 85 miles from Lakewood, Wash., near Tacoma, after their coach reserved a hotel there by mistake.

Lakewood Middle School dominated its 1.8-mile races to place first among the middle school girls and second among the boys. Eighth-graders Tanner Avila (who has placed first in every middle school race he’s run, Lakewood Middle School cross country coach Ron Detrick said), James Allen, Gareth Brewer and Kelson Brewer finished

in the top 10 for the boys team. Stephanie Smith and Lilly Whitehead finished first (11:29.94) and second (12:03.66) overall in the race for the girls, followed by Alicia Callanan and Hunter Clark in ninth and tenth. Seventh-grader Christine Lew rounded out the girls’ top 15.

Lakewood Middle School’s girls excelled

individually but faced stiff competition in the team standings.

“If Christine finished two places behind where she did, the team would not have placed and King’s Middle School would have been ahead by a point,” Detrick said.

Lakewood Middle School teams won first place in both the boys and the girls

1.8-mile races for the first time in six years. The girls notched their third straight Hole in the Wall win.

Lakewood High junior Bryce Shepard placed 24th overall at 19:02.41 in the junior varsity 5,000-meter race.

Lakewood High School’s boys varsity finished in 12th place in its 5,000-meter race with an average per-

runner time of 17:43:00. Getchell took 28th in the with an average of 19:12.20. Lakewood placed eighth in the varsity girls’ 5,000 meters with an average of 20:59.40. Senior Rachel Cundy finished 14th over-all at 19:30.24. Immediately on Lakewood’s heels in the girls’ race was Getchell in ninth place with a 21:13.20 average.

ARLINGTON — Arlington residents Lynn

and Bentley Marks have just gone from being sports equipment inventors to being sporting goods store

owners.In 2007, the married

couple’s invention, which combined skiing and snow-

boarding, attracted the attention of a national TV program hosted by William Shatner.

In 2008, the couple received an allowance of patent for their invention, marking the culmination of a patent application pro-cess they’d begun four years prior.

At the same time, their Slider Corporation found a manufacturer for their invention, to mass-produce it in high numbers and high standards of assembly.

This October, Lynn and

Bentley Marks expect to open a new store under a time-honored name, as Mt. Pilchuck Ski & Sport pre-pares to open its doors at 5200 172nd St. NE, right next door to the Northwest Dance & Acro Center.

“For 35 years, every kid went to Mt. Pilchuck Ski & Sport for their gear,” Bentley Marks said. “The owner retired a year ago, but when we talked to him, he said he’d love to see the name continue on.”

In addition to dealing in skis, snowboards and

their own invention, which attaches two snowboards to one another with a steering handle in the front, the cou-ple will be offering relatively inexpensive package deals to hit the slopes. Not only have they been able to enlist U.S. Olympic skier Patrick Deneen of Cle Elum, Wash., into doing autograph ses-sions for them, but they’ve also gained an overseas part-ner in the form of Ziminy Zhang, a recent immigrant from China.

“He arrived here three months ago, looking to invest in some property and start a business,” Bentley Marks said. “He got up into the mountains, and in this area, he saw that there wasn’t a ski or snowboard manufacturer for miles around.”

“The U.S. has the world’s best market,” said Zhang, who plans to settle in Arlington eventually. “I hope to find more joy in my life here.”

In the meantime, the new Mt. Pilchuck Ski & Sport will open with themed rooms for each type of equipment, as well as a ski slopes cabin feel to its decor. Just as Lynn and Bentley Marks are per-sonalizing their business, so too are they offering their customers the opportunity to customize their skis and snowboards to “an unprec-edented level.”

As for their own inven-tion, which they originally branded the “Yeti,” Lynn Marks reported that the demand for it has heated up on the international mar-ket.

“It’s really started to move in Europe, Australia and New Zealand,” Lynn Marks said.

Whose Odor?Cedar Grove Wants You to Know

Residents in the North Everett/Marysville area can’t be blamed if they are confused by differing claims about unpleasant odors in their neighborhoods. For the last two years, a public relations effort has targeted Cedar Grove’s Smith Island facility as the only source for nuisance odors despite strong evidence to the contrary.

It’s time to stop the PR and get the facts.

That is why Cedar Grove has agreed to participate in and partially fund a scientific study of odors in the area that will be conducted by the Puget Sound Clean Air Agency.

We are committed to this study and pledge to act on the results. We had hoped that other parties would make a similar commitment so that the residents of Marysville and North Everett would benefit from a coordinated effort by area governments and businesses to eliminate unwanted odors.

Unfortunately, no other local organizations have stepped up.

In the meantime, we are not waiting. We continue to improve odor management at our facility. Since last summer, we have moved the final phase of the compost process under Gore covers and covered most of our finished compost piles.

In the near future, we will construct a building for our grinding operations. The building will be under negative air that will be sent through a biofilter to reduce odor before it is released.

Perhaps most importantly, we are proceeding with the permitting process that will allow us to build an anaerobic digester on the site. About one quarter of the incoming volume of organic material coming to the site will be processed in this completely enclosed facility, producing green energy and further reducing the possibilities of unwanted odors leaving our site.

We have heard concerns about composting odors and we have acted. You can help us to continue to make progress by calling: 425-299-1300 or emailing [email protected] if you experience odors.

We place a high value on being a good neighbor. Our family-owned Northwest business, in cooperation with recyclers like you, has led the nation in turning organic waste into high-quality garden and yard products.

It really is not important that you are happy with your religion, what is important is that God is happy with your religion.

Are you tired of all the hype and materialism found in so many religious groups these days? God has already shown us what true religion is. At the Smokey Point church of Christ we are committed to the open study and honest application of God’s word. It may not be entertaining but it sure brings a rest from the burden of sin. Isn’t that the whole point of religion? Let’s talk about it. 360-939-2080

A: Yes we do clean ducts here at Andgar we the average cost is between $350-$650 depending upon the amount of heat registers you have in your home. We recommend that you get your ducts cleaned every 6-8years with a routine annual Service Maintenance. Duct Cleaning can improve air quality and optimize circulation and operation of your forced air system. We also have a duct camera that we will inspect your ductwork for free to make sure there are no leaks and concerns for you for peace of mind during your service. You may need duct cleaning if you have a pet, remodel your house, have allergies or asthma, have children, or live near a busy street or freeway.

Q: I’m ready for the conveniences of a retirement community like Grandview Village. However, the thought of packing and moving is overwhelming. Is there anyone that can help?

A: Part of the fun of working with Elders and their families is meeting people that we may not otherwise know. Some of these folks are the movers (and more) that specialize in helping Elders through this time. It’s important for us to understand that packing a home of 50 years is more than boxes and tape. Memories that are held dear are going into those boxes and with you to your new home! Let Grandview Village be a resource to you. Give us a call!
